HUNTSVILLE, AL -- Against a backdrop of employees making American flags at Phoenix vocational and manufacturing services, State Treasurer Kay Ivey discussed the job recruitment program she'd implement if elected governor.
Ivey, a Republican, commended Phoenix CEO Bryan Dodson for his agency's mission of training and providing jobs to people with physical difficulties and other challenges.
"You're changing people's lives by taking them from helplessness to hope," Ivey said in a Wednesday afternoon visit. "What you do is huge to the taxpayer, and it's huge to self-esteem. ... Everyone needs to work. Idle hands are devil's workshop, honey."
Dodson told Ivey that for every person employed through Phoenix - which receives referrals from the state Department of Rehabilitation Services and the Department of Human Resources - taxpayers save close to $7,000 in disability benefits. Phoenix has contracts to provide janitorial services, security reception and interment flags.
"In a way, Phoenix's mission is shared by those of us who serve in public office," Ivey said. "We also want to in improve the quality of lives, in our case by working through the public sector.
"One of the most important ways a governor can do that is by helping create jobs for people who need them. And right now, with unemployment at its highest level in 26 years, the need for jobs is very great indeed."
Through her "Pathway to Prosperity" plan, Ivey said she would eliminate the "bureaucratic nightmare" some businesses face when trying to expand or establish here.
"We will match medium and small-size companies with medium and small communities, and will diversify job recruitment so we don't have all our eggs in one basket, such as a large auto plant," she said.
"We will build upon existing strengths, such as knowledge-based, high-tech and medical sectors that flourish here in North Alabama."
Dodson said other gubernatorial candidates have also been invited to tour Phoenix, "and we look forward to visiting with them, too."

Brian Rolston has heard all the talk. The Devils are hoping he can be the kind of first-line center the team has been missing since the departure of Scott Gomez.
But after skating Monday morning at the AmeriHealth Pavilion in Newark with 21 other veterans, Rolston said he won't view himself as the No. 1 center when NHL training camp opens next week.
"I won't approach it that way," Rolston told The Star-Ledger. "We'll see. I'll be curious to see what (coach Brent Sutter) throws together. I know there has been a lot of talk about me playing center. I haven't played center in the last four years. I've been playing wing.
"If they try me at center, that'll be fine. I'd rather play the wing, but I will play center. I'd have to get acclimated to the position again but I have no problem making that change. I guess it wouldn't be that big of a deal. Defensive zone coverage and things like that, although that's something big. I welcome the change if it does come."
Sutter said that will play itself out in camp
Rolston, 35, signed a four-year, $20 million contract as an unrestricted free agent July 1. He returns to the Devils, where he started his NHL career, a different player.
"I think I have good speed. Maybe not the same as it was when I was 25," he said. "My game has changed a little bit. When I was younger I was a real fast skater. Now I'm much heavier and can play a little more physical.
"A lot of the game now is played down low grinding around the net. I feel like that's something I'm good at. As far as breakaway speed, I still have it to a certain extent."
The 6-2 Rolston is 30 pounds heavier (215) than he was at the start of his NHL career.
"I feel I'm still at the top of my game," he said. "I had three strong seasons in Minnesota and I feel as strong as I ever have, even though I'm 35. I feel great."
Whether he feels like a center and not the winger he has been in recent seasons will be determined in camp.

These terms all mean the same thing:
Solo 401(k) | Individual 401(k) | Self Employed 401(k)
There are no differences in these terms. Over the course of time, different people and companies have used different terms to describe the same thing.
A Solo 401(k) plan is a type of qualified retirement plan as defined
in the Internal Revenue Code, Section 401, Paragraph k. The sole purpose of the Solo 401k plan is to provide a vehicle for reducing taxable income that can be invested into a wide range of assets in order to provide retirement income at the appropriate time.
What is a Solo 401(k) plan designed to do?
The Solo 401k plan is designed for a small business owner who has no full-time employees other than themselves or a spouse. The plan may be self-administered by the business owner, making him or her the "trustee" and thereby eliminating the need to engage a third party to handle administration or investments.
Initial Funding
Initial funding of the plan, may come from rolling over any of the following retirement plans: traditional or rollover IRA, SEP IRA, SIMPLE IRA, 401(k) from a previous employer, profit sharing plans, defined benefit plans, and most other pension and retirement plans. Roth IRAs may not be rolled into a Solo 401k plan, but a Roth account can be created inside the plan. Rolled funds, or future contributions, once received by the plan, can be converted to a Roth account.
Plan Set Up
Set up of the plan can be accomplished in 3 simple steps:
- Step 1: Fill out a simple questionnaire in order to have plan documents produced.
- Step 2: Plan documents are delivered and paperwork is executed.
- Step 3: A bank account is established by the plan trustee to receive rollover funds
Once funds have been rolled over into the checking account for the Solo 401(k) plan from other qualified retirement plans, the trustee can make investments simply by writing a check.
Solo 401(k) Contributions
Like any full-blown 401k plan, for any sized company, the Solo 401k has two parts: employee deferral and employer profit sharing. Since the small business owner is both employee and employer, he/she can decide how to fund both sides of the equation or not to fund it at all (since there is no requirement to do so). In 2013, depending upon the income level of the business, a combination of employee deferral and profit sharing could equal as much as $53,000 (or $59,000 if age 50 or older).
Personal Loan Provision
A distinguishing feature of the plan from other types of self-employment plans is that the small business owner is able to take out a personal loan (for any purpose) from the plan. Loan limits are 1/2 the value of the assets, or a maximum $50,000. The loan is paid back over a 5 year period. For many self-employed persons, this is a valuable benefit of the plan since traditional loans may not be available.
Solo 401k Plan Administration
Administration of the Solo 401k plan is also quite simple. Annual paperwork to maintain the plan is minimal and inexpensive. The only IRS filing that is required is when the assets in the plan exceed $250,000. At that point, you, or your accountant, will fill out an IRS Form 5500EZ which is purely informational. No other filings are required.
To Sum It Up
The Solo 401k is the best option for anyone who is self-employed (with no full-time employees other themselves or a spouse) and would like to maximize contributions to their retirement plan or take advantage of the loan provision.

KALAMAZOO, MI – Western Michigan University President John Dunn took a cold shower Thursday afternoon at Waldo Stadium. He was the latest to participate in the Ice Bucket Challenge, enduring a freezing soaking for a good cause.
Dunn had a Gatorade cooler of icy water dumped on him by Buster Bronco after WMU alumnus and Syracuse hockey player Luke Witkowski nominated Dunn to take the challenge. Participants have 24 hours to dump a bucket of ice water on themselves, or donate $100 to fighting amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease.
"You know what we say around here: Consider it Dunn," he quipped.
The ice-bucket challenge has become a national phenomenon this summer, with 70,000 people, including celebrities such as Justin Timberlake, participating.
Since July 29, the ALS Association estimated that it and its 38 chapters have received $4 million in donations, according to its website. That's compared with $1.12 million during the same time period last year.
Dunn missed the 24-hour deadline by about 45 minutes, so he said he also would be donating $100 to the charity.
After his impromptu shower of ice water, Dunn called out two people and one organization to take the challenge: WMU head football coach P.J. Fleck, who, if he accepts, will be getting his second soaking of the summer; the members of the Western Student Association and Bronco hockey coach Andy Murray.

Murder trial continues
Search intensifies for culprits in cow killings
ELKINS – A local family is asking the public for information in the shooting of two cows in the Elkins area last week.
Herbert, Pam and Mike Kwasniewski hope to locate those responsible for shooting and killing the two pregnant cows and their unborn calves the night of Feb. 7.
The cows belonged to the Charm Farm and were in a pasture that is part of the Odd Fellows Farm, located off the Flood Control Dam between the Georgetown Road and Haddix Road. The pasture is being leased by the Charm Farm.
The Kwasniewskis received a call the afternoon of Feb. 8 from their niece informing them there was a dead cow in the field, which led them to find the second. A neighbor said noises were heard between 12:15-12:30 a.m. that were believed to be gun shots.
The cows were near a feed wagon that was placed by the road because the bank helped block the weather.
One of the cows was found at the feed wagon, shot in the head, and the other was shot behind the shoulder and appeared to have run toward the wooded area before dying, family members said.
The cows may have been shot from the road at the flood control dam, the family said.
"It was clear that they shot them in a malicious manner and not because they needed the meat for food," Herbert Kwasniewski said.
The beef cows were a rare breed known as Belted Galloways, or "Oreo cookie cows."
"There aren't too many of them and they were registered purebred," Pam Kwasniewski said.
The shooting is being investigated by the Randolph County Sheriff's Office, a local game warden and a conservation officer, the Kwasniewskis said.
A $1,000 reward is being offered for individuals with any information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the parties responsible.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Randolph County Tip Line at 304-636-8477.

Both of my parents went to him as a primary for 20 years. My father is now in very poor health that can be attributed mostly to his lack of care. My father was noted to have very abnormal liver bloodwork for that entire time and never did anything about it or find out why. He also fail to diagnose an serious and obvious heart murmur . They went to a new dr less than a week for insurance purposes after they went to him and they diagnosed my father with the heart murmur from just listening to his chest the first time and said he must have had it for many yrs. They also fpund out he had hepatitis c for at least 25 yrs that was never diagnosed but he never eben tested him for even though he had bloodwork results that suggested it for yrs. My father had to have 2 heartsurgeries and almost in liver failure because he never diagnosed him in reasonable amount of time. The only reason he is alive now because we had to change drs because our insursnce change.

HOLYOKE – The distinctive clang of metal on metal led to the arrest of a 23-year-old city man after he attempted to ditch an unlawful handgun in a trash bin in a Commercial Street parking lot Monday night, police said.
Capt. Arthur R. Monfette said the incident began when police were summoned to Maple and Franklin streets for a report of a disturbance.
Upon arrival, police saw four suspicious males walking on the north side of Sargeant Street, Monfette said.
Police heard the distinctive sound of metal on metal after one of the males walked to the far side of a trash bin in the parking lot of 37 Commercial Street.
Police detained the suspect and found a loaded silver Ruger Police Service 6 revolver, Monfette said.
Christian Martinez, of 139 Sargeant St., Apt. 3R, was charged with possession of a firearm without a license, possession of ammunition without an FID card and possession of a loaded firearm, police documents state.
Martinez, arrested shortly before 10:30 p.m.at Sargeant and Commercial streets, also had an outstanding warrant from District Court, documents state. Additional information was not immediately available.
The arrest marks at least the second time in recent days that police have taken a handgun off city streets. Last Friday, police arrested four North Adams residents on unlawful weapons charges after they were found with a handgun fitted with a silencer in a high-crime area near South Bridge and Hamilton streets.

I issued the following statement today after the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation's hearing on "Universal Service: Transforming the High-Cost Fund for the Broadband Era".
"CTIA applauds Chairman Rockefeller and the Members of the Senate Commerce Committee for holding today's hearing on the need for comprehensive reform of the FCC's High Cost Universal Service program. We look forward to working with Congress and the FCC to develop competitively- and technologically-neutral reforms that make support available for the services that consumers truly need, including mobile broadband services. With a variety of options in the marketplace, consumers have shown that they like wireless services and are demanding mobile access. It is imperative that the Universal Service program recognizes this consumer choice and facilitates the National Broadband Plan's goal to continue our global leadership in mobile broadband services."

CINCINNATI, Ohio – You would have expected the crowded room at Cincinnati St. Xavier to explode when Justin Hilliard announced his college commitment regardless of his destination.
So when Hilliard put on the Ohio State hat, everyone screamed. Predictable.
But that's not what was telling.
Moments later, when four-star defensive end Jashon Cornell of St. Paul (Minn.) Cretin-Derham Hall also picked the Buckeyes, the room exploded again.
"It was an Ohio State room," Hilliard told cleveland.com shortly after his announcement.
There was a time, maybe not too long ago, where it wouldn't have been.
It wasn't long ago when some felt a disconnect between Jim Tressel's Ohio State football program and the top high school programs of Cincinnati. Notre Dame, in actuality, was more successful pulling Cincinnati prospects than the in-state Buckeyes.
Cincinnati was in Ohio, but it wasn't Buckeye Territory.
"It has changed a little bit with Urban Meyer's approach," St. X coach Steve Specht said.
Meyer has preached incessantly about putting a border around Ohio, to not allow any premier prospects within the state choose other top programs out of the area. But Hilliard, Rivals.com's top-rated inside linebacker, was Meyer's first real test to back it up.
Meyer did, but it wasn't easy to buck the trend.
During Tressel's Ohio State tenure that spanned from 2002-11, he signed 39 players from the Cleveland area, a time during which the Buckeyes offered 22 Cincinnati-area players before signing only eight. By comparison, Ohio State signed 21 Glenville prospects as part of its last 12 recruiting classes, which more than doubles the entire Cincinnati area.
That's changing. With assistant coach Kerry Coombs, a longtime high school head coach at Cincinnati Colerain now in charge of the Buckeyes' Queen City territory, the Buckeyes don't plan to allow Cincinnati prospects to escape. Hilliard is staying home.
"At first, I didn't care if Justin left the state for college," said Carl Hilliard, the prospect's father. "Then I met Coach Meyer and he was so accessible, so caring. He's going to take care of Justin, and at that point started to feel that Ohio State was home. Ohio State is the in-state program, and they made it clear that home was the best place for Justin. And we believe it is."
Coombs has been in charge of planting Ohio State's flag in Cincinnati, and that has gone well. Ohio State signed a prospect from the Cincinnati area in each of Meyer's first two classes in Taft defensive end Adolphus Washington in 2012 and athlete Jalin Marshall of Middletown, Ohio, a year later. In 2014, the Buckeyes brought in top linebacker Sam Hubbard.
Now it's four classes in a row.
"Urban coached me my senior year at St. X, so I have known him a long time," Specht said. "He's fiery. If Coach Meyer wants somebody, Coach Meyer is going to get that somebody. I enjoyed talking to Coach, and I enjoy the whole staff at Ohio State. I coached against Coach Coombs for years, but Coach Meyer, boy, he's cut from a different cloth. He's a special individual."
Notre Dame still has a presence in Cincinnati, though. Hilliard and Cornell were a package deal, and many thought the Fighting Irish were the team to beat because Cornell's high school is known as a Notre Dame pipeline.
So Meyer was fighting off Notre Dame from multiple angles, especially the Cincinnati connection where the Irish program is often compared to the Catholic high schools in Southwest Ohio.
"Notre Dame was the hardest one to get past while making my decision," Hilliard said. "That was the other one that really made it tough."
Hilliard was aware of the disconnect between Columbus and Cincinnati, and he even admitted he was looking out of state despite growing up an Ohio State fan. But as his relationships with Meyer and Coombs continued to grow, it became apparent that home was for him.
It may have been forgotten at one point, but not anymore.
Cincinnati is in Ohio.
"It's big for Cincinnati, but it's big for me personally," Hilliard said. "Ohio State is just where I belong, and I hope that I can help them continue to recruit the best players in the country, whether that's Cincinnati or anywhere else."

AUBURN HILLS -- Maddening as some elements of the Detroit Pistons' season have been thus far, head coach Maurice Cheeks' willingness to listen to suggestions and make changes doesn't make that list.
Cheeks' decision to use his big-three front line together in more limited stints the last two games, after which he rotates them at center and power forward, is the latest -- and obvious -- such adjustment.
That the Pistons won both games, most recently 110-108 Saturday over the Phoenix Suns for Cheeks' 300th career win as a head coach, could mean that Andre Drummond, Greg Monroe and Josh Smith find themselves in a glorified two-position platoon even more.
The issue of Monroe and Smith playing extensively out of position reached critical mass as the Pistons lost six consecutive games. Cheeks adjusted and the Pistons (16-22) have won their last two.
Players have taken note of Cheeks' flexibility, which other coaches might regard as weakness or flagging belief in core principles.
"Whatever works for us," Cheeks said recently. "It doesn't have to go my way. It doesn't have to be, like, whatever I say."
A few weeks ago, when point guard Brandon Jennings suggested the team conduct home-game shootarounds at The Palace of Auburn Hills rather than the practice facility, Cheeks made the switch, which didn't work the only time the team has had a chance to try.
And when Smith's role as starting small forward grew confused, he and the coach chatted it out.
Smith quickly found his post offense more of a focal point. In turn, he started driving more from the perimeter instead of shooting jump shots.
"It was our conversation, really," Cheeks said of Smith's ability to tweak his game. "I asked him what I could do to help him be better, and help us be better, and he gave me some suggestions and I gave him some suggestions. And we kind of came to a happy medium there."
Pistons president of basketball operations Joe Dumars sought a head coach who would utilize all his bench tools.
Cheeks has tried every healthy Piston in the regular rotation except rookie Tony Mitchell, who plays the overloaded power forward spot.
He has used players in situational settings, and gauged their reactions. Gigi Datome, Josh Harrellson and Jonas Jerebko all have delivered in quarter-ending shooting situations.
Friday at Philadelphia, Jerebko played 26 seconds, during which he did exactly what Cheeks sought -- ran hot-shooting Spencer Hawes off the 3-point line and forced a quarter-ending miss off the dribble.
Cheeks also made the early-season switch to insert Kentavious Caldwell-Pope into the starting lineup. But one issue about which the coach has remained intransigent is running offensive sets for the rookie guard. He was pressed on the issue at least three times last week by reporters and said he is not considering it.
Using Drummond, Monroe and Smith primarily at two positions is one long-awaited adjustment Cheeks finally did make.
Cheeks has not committed to it, saying only that he is "OK with not using all three when it permits itself."
Given the Pistons' lineup anomaly, it almost always permits itself, save for when they face the similarly outsized Indiana Pacers.
Otherwise, playing the trio together for 10-15 minutes per game, divided between the starts of the first and third quarters, then having no more than two on the floor on the same time, serves several purposes.
It makes the Pistons quicker on the defensive perimeter and allows them more natural rotations on the interior. It allows Monroe and Smith to play more in their natural positions.
With Smith shredding teams the last two games, the Pistons can keep their best player on the floor, in his best position, for longer stretches. They can mitigate Drummond's poor free-throw shooting.
And with Drummond and Monroe still primarily defensive and offensive specialists, respectively, using them interchangeably allows Cheeks more of what is becoming a personal trademark -- flexibility.
"More times than not, if a player makes a suggestion, and you try it, they will try and make that work because they put it out there," Cheeks said. "And players can see a lot. They're out on the floor. They're out in the trenches of things. They have knowledge of what's going on out there. So you can't discount what they suggest.
"You can't take everything into account. But you can take some things that they suggest and use it to your advantage."

Aula Fray Luís de León and Library The university's old lecture rooms are arranged around a courtyard. The Aula Fray Luís de León preserves the rugged original benches and the pulpit where this celebrated professor lectured. In 1573, the Inquisition muscled its way into the room and arrested Fray Luís for alleged subversion of the faith; five years of torture and imprisonment followed, but upon his release he calmly resumed his lecture with the words, "As we were saying yesterday…" An elegant Plateresque stairway leads to the upper storey, where you'll find the old university library, stuffed with thousands of antiquated books on wooden shelves and huge globes of the world.

No hard look is hard enough unless it includes marketing.
"Business owners should take advantage of proven, modern marketing practices," said John Hyman. "These include cross channel marketing and inbound marketing."
Hyman runs Zen Marketing Inc. in Flemington. He and his team of experts help business owners step outside their day-to-day concerns and focus on today's effective marketing techniques.
"Cross channel marketing involves the coordination of multiple marketing channels such as email and social media marketing with a website as a foundation," said Hyman. Many people in business do not have the resources, time and knowledge to integrate the multi-channel opportunities available to them, he explained.
"Inbound marketing involves many of the same tactics used in cross channel marketing," he added. "It is simply based on getting found and establishing your company's credibility."
Hyman helps businesses large and small increase leads and sales. Through his Zen Marketing operation, inbound marketing campaigns are created utilizing email and social media marketing. This can also include a "compelling and searchable" website design. He puts his 30-plus years of experience to work for clients to put in place successful marketing strategies.
"In my workshops and other sessions, I often ask for a show of hands of everyone who took action as a result of a cold call; I seldom see a hand raised," he explained. "Yet these same companies often use (the cold call) tactic for their sales generation process."
Hyman prefers "a measurable approach that brings potential new customers to the business rather than just constantly pushing out sales messages."
During January, Zen Marketing is offering free inbound marketing evaluations to 10 Hunterdon businesses. For more information, call 908-788-8948 or visit the extensive website at ZenMarketingInc.com. Also, check the company on Facebook.

Small businesses have limited budgets. But ingenuity and creativity can go a long way to stretch the dollars. You don't have to be JPMorgan Chase to sponsor a local bowling team or to outfit employees with jackets emblazoned with the business name.
In Clinton, Expressive Stitches personalizes all sorts of apparel and other items with embroidery. Colorful stitches communicate names and logos that extend the brand of an operation into the community. Or, you can consider personalizing gifts with recipients' initials on napkins, scarves, totes, backpacks and other items.
"Through the use of quality customized apparel and great design, a company can expand its identity through the workforce," said Katherine Shull. She owns the Expressive Stitches retail store located at 8 E. Main St.
"Over the years, we have provided winter jackets for trades people, golf shirts for retail store employees, and everything from baseball caps to T-shirts to tote bags and even baby gifts," Shull said.
"We work with each client individually and have access to a broad selection of different products and manufacturers," she added. "And as a local merchant, we are able to provide a speedy turnaround." Shopping locally, as opposed to online, means no minimums and no shipping charges.
This store opened in 2009, and it is open every day. For hours, call 908-735-2140 or visit ExpressiveStitches.com.

Coordinating multiple marketing channels is an everyday affair at Associated Mailing & Printing. This firm is involved in product design and printing to targeted mailing lists, plus database design and processing, along with fulfillment.
"A good marketing plan should be diverse and blend different disciplines and tactics," said Chris Halligan, president of the firm. "We work with marketing companies and businesses directly to help them maximize the cross channel marketing opportunities and other print-related tactics."
This is much more than the usual printing and mailing operation.
"New technologies have added a whole new layer of effectiveness to print marketing," said Halligan. "We can now provide our customers with amazing analytics and a level of customer engagement previously unimaginable."
Halligan has an extensive background in marketing and sales administration at a major pharmaceutical company. Associated Mailing & Printing started out in 1992 in a garage. It has grown to fill a 25,000-square-foot facility at 160 Meister Ave. in Branchburg.
"Imagine being able to provide (your) prospect with a distinct message and also being able to understand the what, when and where of the interaction between the prospect and your marketing piece," he explained.
For more information, call 908-541-9700 or visit ams-dpi.net.
The Internet is changing everything, including the ways businesses tackle their marketing. The future is likely to belong to those who understand and use strategies that take advantage of the new tools.

Do you eat meat everyday?
Yay or nay?
Yes. We try not to have much red meat because my husband has gout but we have to cook and eat what we've got and what I know how to cook.
I don't like pork and seafood is expensive so it usually comes down to beef or chicken.
Yes. I try to make some meatless meals, but it's hard with DH fighting me over it. The rule is he has to at least try it.
My kiddos sometimes get into a "I don't wanna eat..." which sometimes includes meat.
I try to eat more seafood as well, but the only things I like are salmon, shrimp, and tilapia. I'm picky.
But yes, I am a proud carnivore, with some herbivore tendencies.
yes but not everyday for me. I try to eat several meatless meals a week. DH eats some of them with me.
Yes. We eat chicken more than anything else, but there is some sort of meat with dinner every night.
Umm most days I do. I dont really like many types of meat though. My daughter loves any and all meat so she eats some every day though

The Celtics have left Las Vegas and so have I. It was a pretty good trip for everyone, as many of the Celtics came away from the week with something positive. Here, in case you missed any of the coverage, is a wrap up of the week.
First and foremost, I want to thank the good folks at MBR Radio in Maine, especially Program Director Matt Boutwell for the help this week. None of this would have been possible without them. So let me start with a few items I did for the MBR Radio network:
- I spoke to Dionte Christmas after the E'Twaun Moore trade. In this piece, I focused on him and Fab Melo and whether they'd be willing to accept an assignment to the Maine Red Claws. Here is a related story written for Red's Army. It includes the full interview with Christmas.
- I spoke to Kenny Hayes, the D-League's most improved player last year as a member of the Red Claws. He talks about being so close to an NBA dream, and the struggle between fielding international offers and trying to get that NBA call up
- I also spoke to Austin Ainge, who says the Celtics are excited to experiment with how to use the Maine Red Claws now that they own the team.
Please check those out. Each piece has an accompanying audio piece with interviews.
Here on Red's Army, our Summer League coverage started with a conversation with Doc Rivers. He seemed pretty excited about Jason Terry, but his praise of Terry also involved a shot at Ray Allen. He also revealed that Paul Pierce shouldn't have been playing on his sprained knee during the playoffs.
Doc and Danny Ainge also spoke a bit about the rookies, and while they each have things to work on, they clearly like what they see so far.
Rajon Rondo showed up for a couple of games, and took the time to pull guys aside and give them some guidance.
Dionte Christmas was maybe the biggest story of the week, saying first he was mulling big-money offers to play overseas… and then later confirming to me that he was going to accept a training camp invitation from the Celtics.
And then after the last game, I caught up with Jared Sullinger, who spoke about his week, shooting 3's, and how Vanilla Ice plays into keeping him healthy.
All in all, a fantastic week. A trip to the Vegas Summer League is well worth it for a fan looking to get out to Vegas for a few days and enjoy a little basketball. Guys are often available for autographs, and you never know what current NBA stars will show up.
Also want to give a big shout out to Greg Payne of ESPNBoston.com and the Herald's Steve Bulpett for just helping point me in the right direction a few times.
How was I supposed to know the post-game interviews weren't by the craps tables?

If only it would stop raining here in DC so I can enjoy them!

Session 75 - 2MASS.
Display session, Wednesday, January 17
North Banquet Hall, Convention Center
The Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) project will construct telescopes and cameras which will be dedicated entirely to the task of surveying the infrared sky. The survey facilities will be located at Mt. Hopkins and Cerro Tololo. Each site will support a 1.3m equatorial telescope equipped with a three-band infrared camera.
The two 1.3m telescopes will be of a classical Cassegrain configuration with an f/2 primary and a Cassegrain focal ratio of f/13.5. Each telescope will be equipped with a scanning secondary mirror which will tilt to freeze the focal plane for 1.3s intervals while the telescope scans steadily in declination.
The two survey cameras will each contain three NICMOS3 (256x256 HgCdTe) arrays. All three arrays will view the same region of the sky simultaneously via dichroic mirrors at a scale of 2.0^\prime\prime/pixel. The optics for these cameras are based heavily on a seven-element design implemented in the 2MASS prototype camera and demonstrated extensively at the KPNO 50'' telescope. Each camera contains degrees of freedom to assure a common boresite, focus, rotation, and pupil placement for the three bands. The optical and detector assembly is housed in an all-aluminum dewar with an annular cryogen reservoir having an LN_2 capacity of 5.5 liters. In operation the camera dewars have no moving parts with the exception of a cold shutter.

Living life in between.
Spending some time this morning cleaning up some loose ends. Do you run across folks misspelling loose as lose? Makes me crazy. As do many things.
Such as the difference between want and need. You can read more about that and my valiant attempt to lose 500 lbs. AND run a marathon. All by June of this year.
Yeah, that is going to happen.
I am sick of our weather lately, and I am running away. Yep. I am outta here. Going to Arizona to spend some time with the Eldest Daughter. Gonna go to the Arizona RenFaire since I missed ours last fall. I am still in pain over that one.
Attending a Ren faire out in the desert should be pretty interesting. Sort of like being a Templar Knight in the desert around Jerusalem during the Crusades. At least that is my spin on it, don't burst my bubble.
So what is up with you? Drop a line and let us know.

Up in WA state, getting our old house ready to sell now that the tenants have moved out. LOTS to do!
We are "camping" in the house, so camp pad, low camping chairs are making sure I get to squat many times a day. Weeding in the garden, pruning large branches and hauling around bark and compost are getting me very fit very fast. Yay!
Off for a beach walk at low tide with the mutt. He's loving the cooler (than Boise) temps, but still manages to look sullen and bored when he hasn't been on enough walks...
Have been a bit higher carb--maybe 70-100 for a couple of days and feel fine, but I am dropping back into ketoland this week.
Yesterday's food:
Tea w/cream, bone broth
Pastured ham steak with eggs
Chocolate butter
Cheese, goat liver pâté
Ice cream! Potato chips!
Red wine

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The U.S. Supreme Court upheld today Michigan's voter-approved ban on race preferences when it comes to college admissions.
The ruling reverses a 2012 lower court ruling that had curbed the ban as unconstitutional.
Michigan voters approved the ban in 2006.
The majority of the court rejected arguments from the Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action that the ban would result in discrimination against minority residents in Michigan, The Chronicle of Higher Education reports.
Seven other U.S. states have similar laws and others could enact legislation to the same effect, experts said.
The case does not resolve the more general question of why kind of affirmative action is constitutional.
It holds only that states may by referendum choose to ban affirmative action in state institutions.

Definition from Wiktionary, the free dictionary
Alternative forms[edit]
See cock ("penis").
cock rock (uncountable)
- A style of rock music made by male bands, emphasising aggressive sexuality.
2012 August 21, Jason Heller, "The Darkness: Hot Cakes (Music Review)", in The Onion AV Club[1]:
- Since first tossing its cartoonish, good-time cock-rock to the masses in the early '00s, The Darkness has always fallen back on this defense: The band is a joke, but hey, it's a good joke. With Hot Cakes—the group's third album, and first since reforming last year—the laughter has died. In its place is the sad wheeze of the last surviving party balloon slowly, listlessly deflating.

Avoid anything in mobile marketing that seems too easy. If it seems like it may be really easy to implement, you can be sure that something's wrong with it. Of course, we're talking about mobile-specific things here, like apps and formatted sites. A lot of ads and email techniques are universal, so don't fret on that front.
You should be focusing on all your stats as a mobile marketer and not just a few popular ones. Measure your entire success, meaning your repeat usage, bounce rate, unique visitors, and your more popular stats like downloads, opens, activations and registrations. You want a feel for it all here.
For the most technology savvy customers, include QR codes on all printed advertisements. This is an easy way for people with smart phones to access your website and/or coupons. Print the QR codes on brochures, posters, catalogs and business cards. A customer may be genuinely interested in your product or service and a QR code ensures that they can instantly learn more about your company.
One of the best ways to be a successful mobile marketer is simply to be a successful social net-worker. Getting people to follow your blog or social site links to a destination site is much more effective than attempting to send out ads and emails to various people who aren't your customers yet.
Try to set a budget and stick to it if you want to market effectively. Shooting past your budget can quickly cause your campaign to fall apart, if only because you may start to change how you handle things due to a fear of money. Work meticulously to stay within your budget for mobile marketing success.
Be prompt with your messages. This goes along perfectly with being relevant. You can send out an email about something happening, but it doesn't always translate when you need to send a text message. Don't be too early or too late with your messages. For example, you can announce a sale minutes before the store opens, versus days.
Let customers give you feedback. Some mobile marketers have outgoing only messaging, meaning that a customer cannot text them back without going through a lot of hassle. Let your customers talk back to you to improve the focus of your plan, and know if you may need to do something differently.
Push messaging through mobile marketing efforts like SMS messages can be incredibly powerful. Consider pushing discount codes or coupons to customers who have opted in order to receive updates from your business. This increases the value of your mobile marketing and increases the likelihood customers will find value in all the information you provide.
Make sure your advertisements work for all types of mobile devices. If your programming is only accessible by one type, like an Android, you will lose out on entire populations of prospective clients from other platforms. Using cross-platform programming is the best method to attract the most customers to your business.
Mobile ads need a stronger call to action than regular ads, so make sure that you're proficient at providing this type of material. A dozen exclamation points and some words like "must" and "now" aren't going to cut it. You need to come up with a wording that will persuade people in only a short sentence or two.

RE: q on isonic and sails
Thebiggest problem I have is that I often sail on an inland lake. The makes for very gusty conditions requiring the need for a bigger sail. Often in winds where I would be on a 4.7 at the coast I will need a 5.7 on the lake. I never really look at the windspeed as I just rig up on feel for the conditions. Here un the UK, summer winds can be blowing the same speed ad winter winds but have far less energy in them also requiring a bigger sail for a given strength.
The cammed sails take about the same amount of wind (possibly slightly more) as the no cam sails but remain stable. When reaching overpowered on the no cam sails they begin to get twitchy but the X-15s just stay as steady as a rock. This allows me to just keep accelerating on the iSonics until my bottle goes. Their bottom end is not so good though (suprising considering the amount of pre set shape) and really like to have some power in them.
What I do notice is that you need to carefully select your sail from a range. One 5m from one brand can feel and behave more like a 4.5 from another. If you play it right the .5 difference you wish can feel a lot more by careful sail choice.
I'm sure others on here can tell you a lot more about this than me though.

PRINCETON, Ind. (www.incnow.tv) -- The woman involved in the latest Anthony Weiner sexting scandal is reportedly from southern Indiana.
Several sources have identified her as Sydney Elaine Leathers, 23. News crews from the NBC affiliate in Evansville (WFIE) tried to make contact with her at her home address but did no one answered the door.
Many of her online accounts are now hidden but TMZ claims to have obtained some of the explicit photos allegedly exchanged between Leathers and Wiener.
ABC News Report:
With his wife Huma Abedin by his side, New York City mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner acknowledged Wednesday that he sent previously undisclosed explicit messages and inappropriate photos to a woman during summer of 2012, during the year after he publicly resigned from Congress amid a scandal for similar behavior.
Abedin, who has been on the campaign trail with her husband, also spoke emotionally about the scandal today for the first time since Weiner resigned two years ago.
"Our marriage like many others has had its ups and its downs. It took a lot of work a whole lot of therapy to get to a place where I could forgive Anthony," Abedin said. "It was not an easy choice in any way, but I made the decision that it was worth staying in this marriage.
"That was a decision I made for me, for our son and for our family," she added. "So really what I want to say is, I love him, I forgive him, I believe in him and as we have said from the beginning we are moving forward."
The acknowledgment comes after new allegations Monday on gossip website "The Dirty" that Weiner sent sexually charged messages to women after he left Congress in disgrace.
Weiner today said said that the behavior was "entirely behind" him when he got into the mayoral race. He said "can't say exactly" when he sent his last message to a woman who was not his wife, but it might have been "sometime last summer."
Weiner first acknowledged in a statement today that some of the allegations in the "The Dirty" report were true and he confirmed in a press conference that the messages continued after he resigned from Congress.
The anonymous woman said she was 22 when her relationship with Weiner began July 12, 2012, after he found her on the social messaging site Formspring, according to a new post on "The Dirty" today. She also claims that her relationship with Weiner began to fizzle out in November 2012.
"I said that other texts and photos were likely to come out, and today they have," Weiner at the press conference today. "As I have said in the past, these things that I did were wrong and hurtful to my wife and caused us to go through challenges in our marriage that extended past my resignation from Congress.
"With 49 days left until primary day, perhaps I'm surprised more things didn't come out sooner," he said.
According to "The Dirty," racy messages were allegedly posted under the pseudonym Dangr33 on social media site Formspring in 2012. "The Dirty" also alleges that Weiner communicated with the woman through Facebook.
Weiner, 48, resigned from Congress in 2011 after he admitted to sending sexual photos of himself to women on Twitter.
In one post, Weiner appears to be communicating with a woman through his Facebook page, which includes a photo of his wife and their young son Jordan as his avatar.
The authenticity of all the allegations in "The Dirty" account could not be independently verified by ABC News. And Weiner said in his statement that while some of the allegations are true, others are not.
Two of Weiner's opponents, New York City Public Advocate Bill de Blasio and Democratic candidate Sal Albanese called for the former congressman to withdraw from the race Tuesday.
Weiner offhandedly dismissed the comments.
"I'm sure many of my opponents would like me to drop out of the race," he said.
Nik Richie, the author of the "The Dirty" story, wrote in an email to ABC News through another employee who goes by the name "Scooby Sunday," "I'm just doing my job."
The Weiner campaign has not yet responded to requests for clarification.
The allegations published in "The Dirty" were reported by BuzzFeed this morning, but the Weiner campaign declined to comment until releasing the statement hours later.
Last week, a Quinnipiac University poll showed Weiner to be a front-runner in the mayoral race, supported by 25 percent of registered Democrats and followed closely by City Council Speaker Christine Quinn with 22 percent.

Lake Louise at sunset. A particularly difficult spot to photograph with so much contrasting light and shadow.

Unas fotos preciosas, increibles.... me dejan sin palabras.
Good work!
I agree. The contrast is rather large and the mountains tend to be quite dark.
I tried shooting it during sunrise, and the sun was on the other side, so maybe the contrast wasn't that big.

Nice one...amazed
I love Lake Louise! I was there in h.s., went with best friend and her family (from California), it was a blast. We toured Banft and the glacier and all the cool things CA can offer around there. Mom was born in Calgary, Alberta.
This is a totally gorgeous shot!

Love this picture
OMG this is EDEN
awesome. did u find it better to shoot at sunrise or sunset?
thank you. I believe it's supposed to be better to shoot at sunrise here but I didn't have the luxury of choice as I was passing through so this is a sunset image.
Amazing work! Such an excellent capture of the natural light. I love the stillness of the water as well.
Beautiful! Wish I was there!
very stunning!
A beatiful shot of a beautiful lake. Last time I was there was in the early afternoon in late fall, and the light was so intense coming over the mountain on the left, the scene could simply not be photographed. I had to move on, but I plan to be back and some day and to get a compelling image like this one!
thank you. It's is a difficult place to shoot because of that intensity of light and then the darkness of the parts in shadow. Good luck with your next attempt. I'm sure you'll capture it next time
Wow that is incredible.
this is absolutely stunning!!!

John Manley, left, former deputy prime minister, joins Jim Palmer, for whom the Palmer Conference at UPEI is named, and conference co-chair Kevin Lynch.
A familiar face on Canada's political scene is calling for a new approach to politics in this country.
Former deputy prime minister John Manley says the country needs to reverse the current poisonous trend and create a more positive dynamic within the political life of the country. He's calling on all involved, including political parties, public servants and the media, to make that happen.
"Political parties play an important role in our democracies by providing voters with choice, but partisanship that cannot compromise, that demonizes adversaries and that relies on vicious ad hominem attacks degrades our democracy," Manley said Thursday night during an address at the University of Prince Edward Island.
"Increasingly, smart, sensible people who should be thinking of fulfilling a public role, either elected or non-elected, choose not to subject themselves to the poisonous atmosphere of public life, partisan self-righteousness and 'gotcha' journalism."
The remarks were made at the first annual Palmer Conference on Public Sector Leadership.
Taking place Thursday and today, the national conference brings together leaders from across the country to address what organizers feel are important issues in the public sector.
This year's theme is "public servants and their relationship with politicians and the media."
Manley, who served as minister of industry, foreign affairs and finance, also challenged the media to change the way it reports on politics — while poking a bit of fun at those in the fourth estate.
"When I talk with other 'formers' from the political world, not just in Canada but elsewhere as well — about that they miss and don't miss from our past lives — we invariably agree that we do not miss the media," he said.
"That said, many miss the opportunity to be seen and heard in the media."
Turning serious, Manley said what is written and what is said through the media create perceptions that lead to judgments, adding that "nothing is more integral to our system of democratic government than the relationship among professional public servants, politicians and the media."
Still, Manley said the proliferation of new media has brought many new voices to the arena, and the fragmentation of audiences is eviscerating profits and newsroom budgets.
"That squeeze on resources, together with the relentless speed with which new media blurt out their chaotic blend of fact and opinion, leaves mainstream reporters and editors without the luxury of
cross-checking sources and making sure they have
all the facts before they
publish or broadcast," he said.
"Rather than people believing anything they hear, I suspect that they will soon believe nothing they hear . . . and I believe that ultimately, credibility remains the key to success in the media business."
In a post-Gomery Ottawa, Manley said instead of having a culture of accountability, the country has created a culture of "name, blame and shame."
