Memphis 95, Los Angeles Lakers 93
This Kobe Bryant(notes) thing is almost at a boiling point. And because there are various shades of gray here that you have to have your big boy pants on to understand, you have to first consider the fact that I've been watching Phil Jackson work his particular brand of offense since 1989. And work it properly since 1990. Zing.
Kobe Bryant is shooting too much. He's shooting too much for his team's ability, he's shooting too much considering his own physical shortcomings, and he's shooting too much for this team's offense to be successful.
Kobe Bryant is a brilliant basketball mind and fantastic competitor who also nearly willed a dog-tired Los Angeles Lakers team (who plays in Massachusetts one day, and Tennessee the next?) to a road victory against a formidable Grizzlies squad that was really up for their particular game o' da year. He was a Marc Gasol(notes) double-team away from winning or tying it himself in the final seconds, as well.
Kobe Bryant also scored 44 points on 28 shots, a potent night for anyone, much less someone working with nine fingers and all sorts of other ailments.
But he's shooting too much. You can't point to that particular night's shooting percentage and call this a smart deal, not when the Lakers are only managing 101 points per 100 possessions against a rather putrid Memphis defense. Not when the Lakers are currently ninth in offensive efficiency, when they should be first (even with Derek Fisher(notes) around, even with Pau Gasol(notes) missing games) by a long shot.
The ball has to move, others need to be made dangerous, and other options have to be explored. Scoring 44 points on 28 shots is great, but you can't have Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum(notes) combine to take just 10 shots in 56 minutes. Or, 18 fewer than Bryant in 16 more minutes. That's ridiculous.
And Kobe knows better. In just about every given basketball instance, he knows better. All the greats have known better, and ignored those better instincts to do things his way. Bird did it. Jordan did it. Jerry West did it. But that doesn't make it right. And you can't make it a habit. It has to be an occasional dalliance with the very, very wrong.
Not a consistent theme, and that's what Kobe's been on about for the last two months or so. We appreciate the grit, the all-world season at an advanced age and on the best team in basketball. We love all these knockout game-winners he's been throwing in. We know that even if Kobe keeps it up, it might not matter. The Lakers are too good.
Things are starting to turn, though, and it's up to Kobe to stop it. If you're a daily reader, you know I've been warning about this for a while. He has to let up, he has to involve his teammates, and he has to run the offense. This team is too brilliant for things to be this Kobe-centric; because he's not waving off Chris Mihm(notes) anymore.
The Memphis Grizzlies went out and earned this win. Los Angeles had tired legs, yeah, big deal. The Grizz took it. Memphis got to the offensive glass, it got to the line (it wasn't exactly super-successful at the line, 22-32, but it bettered Los Angeles' output), and the bench was borderline passable for once.
Rudy Gay(notes) had 25 points and only four rebounds, mainly because Marc Gasol (13 and 11) and Zach Randolph(notes) (22 and 17) grabbed everything else. The Grizzlies are five games above .500 and should be proud of that, but they're also tied for eighth in the West. There cannot be any letup.
The Wizards were complaining about the officiating following this loss, and while I wasn't exactly around to see every no-call, they probably had a point. Don't let it take away from the fact that the C's executed much better offensively down the stretch, enough to where one guy thinks that an evenly-called game wouldn't have changed the outcome.
Boston had a 25-10 advantage in the fourth quarter, and somehow it felt more steep than that. Caron Butler(notes) and Antawn Jamison(notes) managed to miss all eight of their field goal attempts in the final frame.
Rasheed Wallace(notes) posted up a few times successfully, and only took one three-pointer, on his way to 14 needed bench points. That's why we're angry with him.
The Bucks finished the night scoring 111 points per 100 possessions, which is pretty astounding considering just how bad they looked in the opening minutes, and how bad their shooting stats were as a result. Milwaukee missed its first 10 shots, then completely and utterly turned it around without much hassle or reflex, shooting 37-63 (59 percent) the rest of the way.
Andrew Bogut(notes) did an excellent job of finishing in the lane with either hand, the Milwaukee perimeter was a little too wide open at times after a screen, and by and large the Heat just took the game off defensively. That's a surprise, given this team's start to the season, and how well they competed against Milwaukee in the early going.
But those Bucks — when the wheels come off, they really come off. Good thing they came back, otherwise Scott Skiles may have taken a temperance hatchet to all of South Beach sometime late Monday night.
New Orleans could not get the stops down the stretch. The Hornets didn't close out very well and let Phoenix's ball movement get to them. It was a spirited effort, however, in Chris Paul's(notes) absence.
He turned the ball over four times, but this was a good showing for Amar'e Stoudemire(notes), who tossed in 25 and grab 12 rebounds. Robin Lopez(notes) was also able to finish in the lane (18 points) accurately.
The Hornets were led by Marcus Thornton(notes), who Byron Scott didn't want to play, with 25 points. And because someone is legally required to have double-figure assists in New Orleans' offense, Darren Collison(notes) managed 14 dimes. Byron Scott didn't want to play him either.
Scoring 22 points on 17 shots is pretty solid, but this game was a little distressing. Kevin Martin(notes) made only 5 of 17 field goals, and he just doesn't look like himself right now. And you can't blame Tyreke Evans(notes) for this, because the Kings rookie was out for this loss with a bruised hip.
And while Martin made 2 of 4 shots in overtime, he had a crucial turnover late (19 all day for Sacto), and Omri Casspi(notes) (who helped spearhead a late charge from the Kings in the fourth quarter) didn't attempt a shot.
The Nuggets continue to play well without Carmelo Anthony(notes), and Kenyon Martin(notes) continues to rebound at a rate he's never approached (12 caroms on Monday). Anthony Carter(notes) had a nice run with the ball off the bench (five assists, zero turnovers) and the Nuggies won despite an atypically poor shooting night from Chauncey Billups(notes) (6-25).
This Dirk Nowitzki(notes) thing, nearly as nasty as the "Kobe Bryant thing," is getting serious, for serious, yo.
He played nine and a half fourth quarter minutes on Monday night and didn't attempt a shot, only taking two free throws. Mainly because the Jazz used a smaller, quicker defender (Andrei Kirilenko(notes)) to effectively turn Dirk into a slowish small forward. Dirk still got his 28, and it was his 26 through three quarters that had the Mavs in it to begin with, but his inability to sustain with AK hounding him handed this game to a Jazz club that continues to look good.
Real good, as in 117 points per 100 possessions and huge on the glass. Paul Millsap(notes) had 25 and nine boards as Carlos Boozer(notes) popped another potassium supplement on the sideline, and Deron Williams(notes) racked up 18 points, 15 assists, and seven rebounds alongside two steals.
There are few coaches who I'd trust more to work around this nagging Nowitzki issue than Rick Carlisle, but for now the Mavs are in a tough spot.
For a Portland team working without Brandon Roy(notes) to drop 118 points per 100 possessions on one of the better defenses in the NBA, a defense that only gives up 102 points per 100 after this contest? It might be one of the better team-based performances of the season.
Might be. Charlotte looked at once distracted and fatigued in this loss, the Blazers continually had them fooled on simple give and gos, and the Bobcats just didn't up for the competition on Monday night.
The Blazers were. The Blazers always are. This team just doesn't want to go away. Fifteen points and nine rebounds off the bench for Nic Batum, who played stellar D and wears a funny shirt under his uniform. Andre Miller(notes) had 10 assists, and it really was a team game. Nobody really stood out; the Blazers just took it to 'em.

Although we now have live images of it, we don't know anything more about the MG CS SUV concept now than we did a week ago when the Sino-Anglo brand previewed it. A compact SUV looking for some of the lucre being thrown at that segment, it's not made for the MG purist. But if parent company SAIC can keep the production version close to the concept, it could find a lot of new MG fans.

Ship In my sw tank
I am new, and I set up my sw tank with some live rock and a fake decro boat, which the fish seem to love to sleep in, and my snails escape to it in the day. My question is will any chemicals from it cause any problems in my sw tank?
I plan on replacing it with more live rock, as I see how beautiful the ones on this forum from users are with just a natural environment. Should I take it out now thought o avoid any problems?
As long as it is an aquarium decoration, there should be no harm in having it in a saltwater tank. If it is heavily painted, the paint may peel off over time, but other than making a bit of a mess, even that shouldn't hurt anything. Those decorations are constructed with safe materials for both fresh and saltwater tanks.
Normally saltwater fish seldom we put fixtures in it, liverocks are crucial to sustain life.
Can someone let me know if it is common for them to sleep on bottom

Two Sheridan bankers say business conditions here are fully up to the standard of the rest of the country.
Latest Wyoming news, sports, business and entertainment
An arraignment was held Thursday in Fourth Judicial District Court in Sheridan for a man charged with distributing heroin in the Sheridan area. Sheridan Media's Ron Richter has the story.
Thursday, the State Land and Investments Board, or SLIB, which is made up of the top five elected officials in the state of Wyoming, approved a Drinking Water State Revolving Fund loan for phase three of the Wyoming Park neighborhood project in Sheridan.
Sheridan Fire-Rescue responded to a call of a structure fire at 1022 Laclede Street in Sheridan just before 8 o'clock Thursday morning. Captain Gary Harnish explains what happened after crews arrived on scene.
A man from Sheridan who faces a maximum of 70 years in prison if convicted on all seven charges of embezzling over $1 million in royalties from a local oil company, pleaded not guilty this morning in district court, on all counts.
One of the main issues talked about was air service, during presentations delivered Wednesday as part of the Sheridan County Chamber of Commerce lunch program.
Buffalo City Attorney Ben Kirven gave his report to the city council at their last meeting, opening with a request from the Trap and Skeet Club at the city-owned shooting range to put on a handgun class later this summer. The club wanted permission to put the two-day class on and also notify the city that they would be put on the insurance policy provided by the National Rifle Association.
Johnson County's Commissioners, at this week's meeting, approved changes to a T-hangar lease at the county airport, as requested by the Airport Board.
United Blood Services will have their latest Buffalo blood drive this coming Monday, April 14th at the Johnson County Fairgrounds' Community Building from 1 to 6 in the afternoon.

The Harbor Complex of the Minoan Town at Gournia

American Journal of Archaeology
Vol. 116, No. 3 (July 2012), pp. 521-541

In 1901, Harriet Boyd excavated several Minoan structures on the coast at Gournia. She subsequently focused her attention on the Late Bronze Age town of Gournia and did not publish her work on the coast. In 2008 and 2009, the Minoan remains investigated by Boyd along the shore and coastal plain of Gournia were cleaned, mapped, and photographed. This fieldwork uncovered structures identified as a monumental shipshed, fortification walls with towers, a cobbled street running from the harbor toward the town of Gournia, a gate by the Gournia River, two dams at the mouth of the river, and sets of agricultural terraces. Drawing on data from the 1992–1994 Gournia Survey, finds from the 2008–2009 cleaning, and the 2010–2011 excavations at Gournia, this study presents evidence for the function of these structures and considers their dates and cultural context within Bronze Age Crete. Additional figures can be found under this article's abstract on AJA Online.

Oxford, September 26, 2011 – Elsevier, a world-leading provider of scientific, technical and medical information products and services, today announced the launch of the iPad edition of the European Journal of Cancer (EJC). Starting with the September 2011 issue, all 18 annual issues of theEJC will be available through the EJC App on the App Store. iPad editions feature the same high quality articles that are published in the print as well as online editions.
The EJC App includes published content from the highly popular EJC News and EJC News Focus, and offers readers the ability to customize the journal by selecting articles, tables, or figures to store and use later, as well as making notes on articles.
"We are proud that the EJC is the first European oncology journal to launch an iPad edition," said Alexander Eggermont, Editor-in-Chief of the EJC. "It is important for our readers to have access to the journal whenever they need it. The iPad editions deliver theEJC to them in an easy to use format, straight to their device."
The EJC App offers unprecedented portability to its readers, who can download the edition wirelessly. It is then available for reading and browsing offline, at times and in places where web access is not available. Of perhaps most significance, the journal can be read the same way on iPad as in print. The reader can flip pages forward and backward in the horizontal plane and scroll down vertically to read an individual article.
The EJC App is available for free from the App Store.

Suspensions, suspensions, suspensions: The ugliness has completely overshadowed the games this postseason, and the punishments (or lack of punishment) keep coming. James Neal was suspended one game. Arron Asham got four games. Andrew Shaw got three games. Nicklas Backstrom got one game. And this doesn't look like the end.
Calling Brendan Shanahan: While the hockey world awaited a decision on Neal and Asham, Raffi Torres made sure he would be talking to the league soon. Torres, a repeat offender, left his feet to hit Chicago forward Marian Hossa after Hossa had made a pass in the neutral zone. Hossa lay motionless on the ice and was carried off on a stretcher. He was briefly hospitalized, and there is no timetable for his return. No penalty was called on the play, as officials said they did not see the play.
Throw out the box score: The Red Wings outshot the Predators 41-17. They outhit them 28-20. And they won 58 percent of the faceoffs. So how did Nashville win the game 3-1? Pekka Rinne. The star goaltender stopped 40 shots, and the Predators left Detroit with a 3-1 series lead after having never won a playoff game at Joe Louis Arena before this series.
No lead is safe: The Devils shot out of the gate in Game 3, scoring three goals in the first 6:16 of play and running Jose Theodore out of net. New Jersey seemed to have the game won since it hadn't lost a playoff game when leading by three goals or more since April 10, 1988. But history was a thing of the past on this night. The Panthers scored four unanswered goals, including three power-play tallies, to end Martin Brodeur's night early and win 4-3, taking a 2-1 series lead.
Looking for an answer: With the top-seeded Canucks on the brink of elimination, it might be time for Daniel Sedin to return. Sedin flew to Los Angeles on Monday and practiced with the team Tuesday for the first time since suffering a concussion about a month ago. If he does play in Game 4, is this the shot of offense the Canucks need or just a last-ditch effort by a desperate team about to be swept by the eighth seed? We will get our answer Wednesday.

It's not to do with having evidence, it just seems more plausible. Fans want James/Cyclops and Famke/Phoenix back and for that to happen, the events of X3 have to be undone.
The other option is for the future to be an alternate timeline where Cyclops and Jean never died, but that's rather limited and gives those characters only a fleeting reappearance if that future gets changed/overwritten in the course of the film.
Of course, they could go in all sorts of directions, we just don't know. For instance, the quotation shown on the front of the screenplay suggested that humans would be the ones under threat, not mutants. If that is taken literally - and why was it on the front of the script if it doesn't mean something significant? - there might be an option where mutants rule the future, humankind is dying out, and one normal human travels into the past to unleash Sentinels and save normal humanity. I rather like that option, as it seems closer to what might happen in reality if a superpowered species of human emerged: the rest of us (non-mutants) would become extinct! Just as happened with Neanderthal and Cro-Magnon.

I suggested that... and it could be one way of getting round the 'Halle issue', but the cast does need some ethnic diversity somewhere, as well as powerful characters to take on Sentinels.

This review is from: ONKYO TX-NR515 7.2-Channel Network 3D Ready A/V Receiver
Pros: Network and streaming features worked well including streaming music from Android device and from built in streaming apps. Audessy auto speaker calibration supported multi listening point calibration.
Cons: This receiver is cheaply built and is riddled with bugs. I bought it on Black Friday 2012 and performed the USB only October 12' firmware update which was supposed to fix the HDMI out issues. A week and a half later it would connect intermittently with cable box and to the tv. I had to unplug it sevdral times to get the hdmi pass through to work. It was a pain! I returned it for the Yamaha RX-V673 and I am so glad I did! I should have spent the extra money on the Yamaha to begin with! The Yamaha is a much better product!READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: YAMAHA RX-V673BL 7-Channel AV Receiver
Pros: HDMI switching works perfectly compared to the Onkyo TX NR515 which was extremely buggy even after updating the firmware to the Nov. 2012 release which was supposed to fix the issue! Streaming Google play music from Android device works flawlessly. Operating the receiver via Android app works really well. Lots of sound and speaker options to tinker with. Receiver stays cool. GUI is simple but nice to navigate.
Sounds cleaner than Onkyo TX NR515, but has a little less bass. Is not plagued with the bugs that the Onkyo was. I returned the Onkyo TX NR515 and bought the Yamaha RX-V673 for $120 more. It was well worth the extra money. Switching between inputs is twice as fast and seems a lot more reliable.
Cons: No video out picture modes like the Onkyo had, but minor issue since the picture quality is nice and you have more picture options on TV anyways. A little higher of a learning curve from the Onkyo, but this is due to loads of customization options. HDMI out signal pops off and on when opening or closing receiver's on screen menu. Kind of annoying, if your watching tv or a movie and your going in and out of the menu a lot. Overall it's positives far outweigh its negatives!
Other Thoughts: Don't be cheap and buy the Onkyo TX NR515 or 616! Spend the extra dough and go with the Yamaha RX-V equivalent!READ FULL REVIEW

My family and I rented the B&B property for my mother's 60th Birthday celebration. Because we invited extended family, our group necessitated a large house. The B&B had everything we were looking for: location, amenities, and capacity. Most importantly, each bedroom had their own bathroom, a number one priority, truly giving guests privacy. The the house was wonderful! We were greeted by Mary and her cleaning staff and she showed us around the property. The pool table and game areas were enjoyed by all and the living room and dining area was a sufficient size and kept everyone together.
Brett, on behalf of my family and myself I would like to thank you for the wonderful experience we had in the Berkshires. I would like to personally thank you for your constant availability and sincere advice or help in providing us with any information or essential needs.
Our family, my great grandchildren and grandchildren, cousins and adults were constantly on the move. We went hiking, rowing, rafting, visiting museums, parks, the animal farm, golfing, swimming in the large pool, volleyball, competing in the playroom (they loved the pool table and were quite experienced). The country like environment, and the beautiful and majestic breathtaking sites from the high peak were also an amazing experience.
Thank you again, and I will strongly recommend this experience to my friends. Best regards,
and once again thank you!
I rented this property to celebrate my 30th birthday with 26 close friends of mine. The property was perfect! The photos of the property are accurate but the property looks even better in person. My group used each and every single amenity that the property had to offer without having any issues at all. We especially enjoyed the large swimming pool, hot tub, the indoor activities such as the pool table, air hockey machine and indoor bar. To cap the weekend we spent there, we built a fire in the fire pit, sat around it and joked and told stories all night. It was a moment that we will never forget. The best part of renting with Brett were his quick responses to any questions or concerns that we had. I rent properties for my different groups of friends at least once a year, and I must say, Brett was the most organized and responsive property manager that I have ever dealt with. I plan to rent with Brett in the future and most definitely will refer him to my friends and family.
We had been searching for a single house that could hold our 26-person company retreat when we stumbled upon Your Own B&B, and it had everything that we were looking for – hot tub, fire pit, large kitchen, large dining room. It even had 26 beds (not just sleeping 26 – a large difference). The photos we saw did a great job of representing the property, and we were able to comfortably fit our entire company in the dining room area. Our stay lasted for 4 days and 3 nights, and during that time we cooked every meal for ourselves, so having the 3 full-sized refrigerators was incredibly helpful. Each suite has its own bathroom and shower, and we never once had an issue with hot water availability. We went in early March, so we weren't able to take advantage of the pool and volleyball court, but they were both in excellent shape and we all were hoping for warmer weather. One of the best things about Your Own B&B is the layout on the ground floor – there's the living room, dining room, kitchen, and game room. The rooms are all very open, so even though we would all be relaxing in different rooms, it never felt like parts of the group were isolated from each other, or that anyone was missing out on something fun going on in a nearby room. Having enough space for us to get together for a huddle in one room, but also to break out into working groups in different places was a huge help. Questions to the owner and property manager were always answered quickly and professionally, and they were readily available on the phone for questions during the retreat. If you're looking for a retreat for your group, this is a fantastic choice, and one of the very few places in the NE area that can provide everything it does.
We rented Your Own B&B for our perennial ski trip that is now on its 9th year. The listing description absolutely accurate. In fact the photos don't do the property justice. The location to Jiminy Peak was perfect, not even 5 mins away from the house. The proximity to the mountain was great but most enjoyable was the layout of the house. The group was able to congregate all together because the house is open to large groups. It made socializing with people we don't often see very welcoming. There was enough recreational activities to keep everyone entertained (the pool table and jenga were huge hits). I must also mention the jacuzzi which is the perfect post skiing relaxation. Brett and his company 4 Seasons Getaways were great! He answered every question we had and provided precise information when needed. In fact we plan on renting again.
This is the second year that we rented "Your own B&B" for our annual reunion of college friends, about 25 of us including kids. We
returned because we found that the property was a perfect fit for our needs. Prior to renting here, we'd rent individual rooms at motels
and B&Bs that were not always close to each other, and having everyone able to stay under the same roof just made the experience so much
better. The kitchen had plenty of room for multiple people to prep at once, which is a necessity when you're cooking for 20+! Having
multiple common areas made it easy for one part of the group to play board games while another listened to music and played video games
while another was able to watch football games on TV. And, of course, the hot tub makes any cold October night better. Brett made the
entire process of setting the week up really easy. We're already planning a return trip next year.
My family decided to spend Thanksgiving together, but with four siblings and lots of adult children, no one had a house big enough to host such a large group. We decided to have it at "Your Own B&B." We chose it because it was advertised as suitable for exactly this kind of occasion. And it was PERFECT! It was even better than we expected! The house was spacious, clean and very well-equipped. The huge dining room allowed everyone to sit together for meals. The kitchen was clean and stocked with everything we needed. The bar and game room were terrific! We had a great time congregating around the pool table, listening to music and laughing together! We loved the hot tub and we loved taking walks together up the quiet, dirt road adjacent to the property. The rooms were clean, everyone had their own bathroom and the beds were really comfortable! The house was close enough that we were able to enjoy the wonderful hiking and notable art museums located in the Berkshires. The owner was very accessible and pleasant to deal with. He returned calls promptly and was very helpful in every respect. Everyone had FUN! We all agreed that we would love to return again for another reunion weekend.
The property is convenient to many fun and interesting things to do in the Berkshires. Jiminy Peak ski resort is only 3 miles away. Western Massachusetts is loaded with year round historical and cultural attractions from the Berkshire Museum to Hancock Shaker Village and the Norman Rockwell Museum. The Boston Symphony Orchestra's summer home is nearby at Tanglewood and the Berkshires are famous for a myriad of cultural attractions in the summer like the Tanglewood Music Festival. Golf enthusiasts can enjoy the beautiful Berkshire Countryside while perfecting their swing at area golf resorts.
Ski: Jiminy Peak ski resort is located literally down the road (3 miles or 4 minutes).

Honolulu mayor reveals plan to cut homelessness
Associated Press
HONOLULU — Honolulu Mayor Kirk Caldwell announced a pilot project Thursday to address homelessness by providing housing for people within their own neighborhoods.
The mayor said he wants to spend between $3 million and $4.5 million in federal funds to help get at least 100 people off the streets over the next two years.
Caldwell said the project adopts the Housing First strategy, which focuses on giving people shelter before other services. The Hawaii Legislature is already investing in a statewide Housing First initiative and voted last week to renew the funding. Other states that have invested in the strategy include Oregon and Kansas.
Caldwell said his plan is different from Honolulu's previous attempts to reduce homelessness because the proposal seeks to help people find housing within their own communities, rather than corralling them into one neighborhood.
City officials also say that previous plans to fight homelessness prioritized substance abuse treatment before housing. The new initiative sees shelter as the first level of treatment.
Caldwell announced the proposal, along with state officials and city council members. He emphasized that the proposal is a pilot project that takes a systemic, holistic approach to homelessness instead of moving people from sidewalk to sidewalk.
"What we're doing now is not working," Caldwell said. "We need to change how we do it."
He plans to start in Waikiki, Waianae and downtown, areas where most of Honolulu's homeless people live. He didn't have an estimate of how much the program might cost if it expands to other neighborhoods.
City and state officials say the plan will save Hawaii money. They estimate that helping each person will cost about $30,000 per person.
The Honolulu City Council will consider the proposal next.
Leaders of several of Hawaii's social service organizations, including the Institute of Human Services and Hawaii Catholic Charities, stood behind the mayor in support of the plan.
"I think this one really is different," said Darryl J. Vincent from the U.S. Veterans Initiative, an organization that helps homeless veterans. Vincent said he has been working on homelessness in Hawaii for the past 20 years and that Caldwell's plan shows a commitment to collaboration and to addressing homelessness the right way.
The initiative would provide housing for about 7 percent of Honolulu's 1,465 unsheltered homeless residents. A large majority of them are mentally ill. Most are struggling with addiction.
There are an estimated 4,556 homeless people in Honolulu overall.

Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder is common (affects ~2% of all live births) and is a major cause of mental dysfunction. Of the many negative effects that ethanol has on the developing nervous system, the most severe is neuronal death. It is severe because this loss is permanent;with the exception of a couple of sites, post-mitotic neurons in the CNS are not replaced by newly generated ones. Indeed, after the generation of neurons is complete, the nervous system has to decide if and whether damaged neurons can be repaired. If not, they must be eliminated. A key molecule in this decision process is the oncoprotein p53. p53 is critical for maintaining neuronal integrity and resiliency. We will test the hypothesis that developmental exposure to ethanol alters neuronal survival and DNA repair through p53-dependent activities. In the developing nervous system, neuronal death is a natural and critical process. This death appears to be apoptotic and to involve p53. Our preliminary data and the work of others on developing cerebral cortex show that exposure to ethanol during the period of naturally occurring neuronal death causes a dramatic and transient increase in both active caspase 3 expression and terminal uridylated nick-end labeling (TUNEL). On the other hand, our novel data also show that this pattern does not coincide with the ultimate loss of cortical neurons either in time or space. The implication is that ethanol causes DNA fragmentation, but this degradation may not be obligatory for apoptosis. Instead, it may reveal DNA repair mechanisms. p53 is a key player in DNA repair. Three complementary aims will be addressed using p53 deficient mice and cells. (1) Vulnerability of cortical neurons to ethanol will be addressed in long- and short-term in vivo studies. Long-term studies will determine the ethanol-induced loss of neurons in cortical layers occurring in the deficient mice. Complementary studies will examine short-term changes in the expression of presumed "death markers" (active caspase3 immunoexpression and TUNEL) in cortical layers and the timing of the neuronal loss. (2) The acute genomic responses of p53 deficient mice and cultured neural stem cells to ethanol will be determined. We will identify changes in the expression of transcripts involved in apoptosis and DNA repair. In addition, we will determine the epigenetic effects of ethanol on the silencing of genes through hyper-methylation. (3) Securin is a protein that is regulated by p53 and is pivotal for DNA repair. Preliminary microarray and immunocytochemical data show that it is profoundly affected by ethanol. Thus, we will examine the effects of ethanol on cells deficient of securin in vitro and in vivo after transplantation into layers that are apparently susceptible and refractory to ethanol. These studies will explore two dovetailed responses that developing neurons have to ethanol: DNA repair, and failing that, apoptotic death. We will address critical questions. For example, what defines the susceptibility of a young neuron to ethanol? Can neurons be manipulated to reduce their ethanol vulnerability? Thus, the studies explore two new targets of ethanol, p53 and securin, that are critical for the neuronal survival and integrity.
Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder affects an estimated 2% of all live births in the United States. One common target of alcohol toxicity is differentiating cells, particularly those that are newly integrating into the complex environment of the developing brain. The present study will explore two complementary mechanisms by which alcohol-induced defects result (a) from ethanol-induced neuronal death and (b) from ethanol-altered DNA repair.

I feel it coming
And its like a spindly-legged bug,
crawling toward my love.
Down my neck I feel it tickle,
On my breast it rests,
scurrying,hairy little legs,
Past my tummy and so much more.
My little bug,
I caught on the window,
And let it on my finger.
It eats of my essence,
and drowns in my existance,
a spindly-legged bug,
Creeping toward my love.

Field of Screams
At 29, Edwidge Danticat is, as the expression goes, in like a bullet. Her first two books, a story collection (Krik? Krak!) and a novel (Breath, Eyes, Memory), have earned her both literary and popular acclaim. Citations have come from sources as diverse as Seventeen and Essence; she's also received a National Book Award nomination, and, of course, a coveted spot on Oprah's Book Club.
Certainly there's much to admire in Danticat's second novel. Set in Haiti, the story takes place primarily in 1937, the year the generalissimo of the Dominican Republic ordered the slaughter of untold thousands of Haitians living and working in his country. We witness this event through the eyes of Amabelle Désir, a young Haitian woman whose parents, when she was a child, drowned before her eyes in the Massacre River, which separates the two nations on the island of Hispaniola. She was found soon after by Don Ignacio and his daughter, the future Señora Valencia, and she is in their employ as a maid some years later when the slaughter occurs. Désir loses her lover, the mysterious Sebastien Onius, in the violence, and she herself is partially disfigured: one of her legs ends up shorter than the other as a result of a beating, her broken jaw never closes properly again.
Heady stuff, this, and made all the more shocking by Danticat's sly setup. The book opens with a scene of Désir--her dead parents were midwives--helping Señora Valencia deliver her first children, twins, while her husband, Señor Pico, is away with the Dominican army. In his rush to return home, he hits a Haitian cane cutter with his car, but he's less interested in searching for his victim's body than returning to his wife and newborn children. It soon emerges that Désir's lover Sebastien was with Señor Pico's victim when he was struck and killed, and it seems, then, that this is what the novel will be about: a domestic drama in which Désir attempts to navigate between the moneyed world of her employer and childhood friend, and the world of her lover, who works in the cane fields as a cutter. But all this is derailed by history--by the slaughter which, it turns out, Señor Pico helps orchestrate. It is a bold and admirable departure from the expected, a move which marks Danticat's ambition as a writer; and if, in the end, she's not equal to the task she sets herself, the failure is less one of innate ability than of honed craft. I think she will write the book she wants to write, she's just not there yet. Danticat's eye is focused on too many things in this book, and, though she writes her stories with courage and conviction, they are, surprisingly, almost devoid of passion. It's as if she were trying so hard to juggle all the balls she has in the air that she is unable to add flair or feeling to her performance.
The Farming of Bones

Soho Press, 312 pp, $23

Not the least of this novel's attributes is the skill with which Danticat renders her native Haiti. Seamlessly blending shorthand cultural explanations with her fictional narrative, The Farming of Bones is infused with a clarity that often approaches grace. At these moments, Danticat's voice is at once mythic and entirely contemporary, the voice of an ancient storyteller and a new writer struggling to hammer out her craft. Here, Désir witnesses her employers dealing with the sudden death of one of their twins:
Juana was entrusted with the care of Rosalinda, and the señor and señora sat in their room most of the evening. As he held her, she groaned now and then, trying not to cry too loudly. He did not know how to ease her pain, not very well in any case; he kept shifting as she tried to find a comfortable nook to claim for herself, her own place to sink into, within his arms. He was silent while she sobbed, not offering a word. Perhaps he was suppressing his own tears, but his silence seemed to me a sign of failure for this marriage, the abrupt union of two strangers, who even with time and two children--one in this world and one in the other--had still not grown much closer. The short courtship and the even shorter visits after marriage had not made them really familiar with each other. The señora did not know him well enough, nor he her. He was still learning his role now, and she hers, and perhaps neither of them imagined that this test would arrive to transform them from a newly joined pair to the parents of a dead child.

The novel is peppered with this kind of wisdom, but, alas, it's dominated by passages that strike me merely as unreflective. "Odette died when Wilner died," one character remarks of a woman whose lover is shot. "They killed her when they killed him." That's practically a line from a protest song; in fact, Odette drowned--or else she was accidentally suffocated by Désir herself. "I saw a stillness in her eyes similar to the dead boy's face," Désir says of Señora Valencia, "something like the shadow of a lost dream entering and leaving through her vacant stare." The word "dream" is already pushing it here--clearly it's a thought that's passing through Señora Valencia's mind--but "shadow of a lost dream" is like the negative of a negated negation. It doesn't really mean anything.
Such passages seem automatic, and serve to efface Danticat's characters with historical or fictional generality rather than break them out as individuals. But the most effaced or obscured character in the book is Amabelle Désir herself. Despite all she witnesses she remains a cipher. To some degree this strikes me as intentional: the woman is clearly shell-shocked by the two shaping events of her life, her parents' drowning and her own near-murder. But if it is shell shock, it isn't felt by the reader, but merely implied by the writer. Indeed, Désir seems to lead a full if obviously scarred life after the massacre; but this life is presented in dry details that tell us little more than the fact that seeing your parents drown and your people slaughtered will leave you angry, scared, and sad. That should have been this novel's premise, not its conclusion. Still, the fire which occasionally bursts from Danticat's pen suggests that there is still much to expect from this writer. Take, for example, this passage, when Désir comments on a character's dying word, the Kreyòl word for "parsley" (pèsi), whose Spanish version (perejil) is difficult for Haitian tongues to pronounce, and which many Dominicans used to distinguish their neighbors from themselves:
The generalissimo's mind was surely as dark as death, but if he had heard Odette's "pèsi," it might have startled him, not the tears and supplications he would have expected, no shriek from unbound fear, but a provocation, a challenge, a dare. To the devil with your world, your grass, your wind, your water, your air, your words. You ask for perejil, I give you more.
Here is passion, fire, hatred, real protest; here is that elusive, novelistic "more"--which leaves Danticat's readers wanting more writing like this.

Concerning HP laptops: we no longer recommend HP laptops. In the last few years, they have developed a higher-than-average failure rate, and replacement parts often contain the same problem as the original. Lenovo, Dell, Compaq, and others seem to make fine laptops, though.

in London and
TERESA POOLE in Peking
The Chinese ambassador in London was summoned to the Foreign Office yesterday for a formal protest over the capture and detention of two Hong Kong vessels and their crewmen, who were seized at gunpoint in the colony's territorial waters.
The incident has caused a political uproar in Hong Kong, and could further damage Britain's relations with China, already strained over plans for the transition to Chinese rule in 1997. The Hong Kong government said it was "very concerned" over the incident, while an internal police report, leaked to the South China Morning Post, said "this blatant incursion has heightened the fear that we have already lost control".
The summoning of China's ambassador, Ma Yuzhen, was seen in London as a last resort after representations to the local Chinese authorities failed to produce results. The Foreign Office Minister of State Alistair Goodlad told the ambassador of Britain's "concern over this very serious incident" and urged China "to take quick and responsible action to resolve the issue".
The British ambassador in Peking is to make a parallel protest at the foreign ministry this morning, and Chris Patten, the Governor of Hong Kong, has ordered the Royal Navy to review its rules of engagement in the waters around the colony. However, the Hong Kong squadron is a shadow of its former self: it has three patrol craft, and about two dozen Marines with "Rigid Raiders", small fast assault craft.
Mr Patten has also instructed the Hong Kong police to take a robust approach to any future infringements of territorial waters by Chinese boats.
On 18 March two vessels were confronted by armed mainland Chinese security forces eight miles inside the colony's territorial waters. Shots were fired across the bows of the vessels before they were seized.
A distress message was picked up at about 9am by Hong Kong's Marine Police. When they arrived they found six uniformed Chinese security officers, two armed with machine-guns and some wearing hoods, with the Hong Kong vessels.
The South China Morning Post reported that when the policemen attempted to intervene, they were held back at gunpoint. The Hong Kong Security Branch ordered the officers not to provoke a confrontation. The police launches then had to escort the Chinese and their captives south into Chinese waters. The Royal Navy was not called in.
A police official in the southern Chinese city of Zhuhai said two Hong Kong men would be put on trial for attempting to smuggle 47 cars into the country and that an anti-contraband operation had drifted into Hong Kong waters in high winds.
The smuggling of stolen and new cars from Hong Kong to China has been a serious problem for several years.
Allegations of involvement by mainland officials, including customs and police, have complicated diplomatically sensitive incidents when Chinese anti-smuggling pursuit vessels have strayed into Hong Kong's waters.
Emily Lau, an Independent Legislative Council member, said: "It seems that the Chinese are just walking all over Hong Kong and Britain."
A top-level police delegation was due to travel to China yesterday to try to secure the crew's release.
