Hi all, I would like to use DNS load balancing with ispconfig 3. As I read in a mydns manual this should work by changing the priority value (aux) of a DNS A record. The ispconfig interface does currently not allow to change the priority of an A record. It is only possible to change the priority of a MX record. Shall I change the priority directly in the mysql table? Or is there another way to change the priority through ispconfig? That might be a feature request as well?! Thanks for your input. fed
You can change this in the mysql db. But as far as I know it is not nescessary to set this value for load balancing at all. Just add more then one dns A-Record for every load balancing target.
mydns algorithm As I know, mydns uses round robin to select the primary IP if all records have the priority 0. That means each record has the same weight. If you change the priority to higher values, the corresponding record will have a lower weight and will be returned less. I will temporary change the values manually and add a CR. Thanks

Carlos A. Vega 1950 - 2012 HOLYOKE - Carlos Alberto Vega of Holyoke died at his home Thursday April 12, 2012, at age 61, surrounded by his loving family after a long battle with brain cancer. He was the son of Fabiola Vega and the late Alfonso Luis Vega. Carlos dedicated his life to social justice and worked tirelessly throughout his life to benefit the City of Holyoke. From housing rights to Latino cultural celebrations, from education to community organizing to economic development, he championed the needs and voices of the Latino community. Carlos served as Executive Director of Nueva Esperanza for many years, an agency he helped found. In this capacity he developed 400 affordable apartments in South Holyoke as well as commercial spaces for small businesses. Carlos' work continues beyond his death. Last year the Wisteriahurst Museum established The Carlos Vega Collection of Latino History in Holyoke as archived by Carlos Vega. The Carlos Vega Fund for Social Justice, managed by the Community Foundation of Western Massachusetts, was established in 2010 to promote groups that work for social justice. On May 3rd, the Hamilton Street Park will be renamed "Carlos Vega Park". Carlos has created, worked at, or served on the board of most of the progressive organizations in the area including Fair Share, New Unity, the Holyoke Children's Museum, Urban Ministry, Latino Scholarship Association, Community Accountability Board, One Book Holyoke, HAP, Western Mass Jobs for Justice, Western Mass Legal Services, Holyoke Human Service Network, Enlace de Familia, Nuestras Raices, Council for Children, National Priorities Project, Project Vote, Holyoke Teen Pregnancy Prevention Coalition, The Department of Social Services, Greenworks, and Valley Opportunity Council. He also built coalitions throughout the region helping area educational institutions coordinate their efforts with the grassroots community. In addition to being the recipient of the NPP Frances Crowe Award, he has been honored by Governor Deval Patrick, Elms College, Five College Community Partners, Holyoke Community College, ALANA, UMass Amherst, the Holyoke Public Schools, and the City of Holyoke. Carlos was a great lover of music, movies, poetry and art from cultures throughout the world: appreciating Bob Dylan to Adele, from The Maltese Falcon to The Matrix, Pablo Neruda to Langston Hughes, Diego Rivera to Elizabeth Catlett. He shared this love enthusiastically with his wide and beautiful circle of friends and family. Carlos leaves behind his wife and best friend Elaine Fletcher Vega, his three sons, Holyoke City Councilor Aaron Vega and his wife Debra Vega, Jesse Vega-Frey and Nicolas Vega-Frey, a stepdaughter, Rebecca Fletcher and her husband Gregory Nichols, and his beloved granddaughters, Destiny and Courtney Joaquin and Alexi Wickman. He is also survived by his three loving sisters Lauren, Maria and Patricia Vega and many nieces and nephews. Carlos' family is grateful for the extraordinary care and skill of his neurosurgeon Doctor Kamal Kalia and for the support of Holyoke Hospice. His friendships were legendary and the extraordinary care he received from them over his final days was a testament to this. A memorial Service celebrating Carlos Vega's life and achievements will be held on Saturday, April 28th at 4PM at Holyoke High School. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Carlos Vega Fund for Social Justice at
, please specify the Carlos Vega Fund.

Grazing fees on public land will increase this year, but the Rangeland Improvement Program that those fees help fund could go away.
In 2004, the Rangeland Improvement Program funded $128,000 worth of improvements in the Bureau of Land Management's Little Snake Resource Area, which encompasses most of Moffat and Routt counties and parts of Rio Blanco County. The proposed federal budget seeks to cut the program.
The program's projects are designed to improve the health of ranges where cattle graze. Projects included fence construction, well and spring developments, and vegetation changes, such as brush-beating decadent sagebrush.
Ranchers suggest the projects to the BLM. After prioritizing the projects and deciding which ones are most affordable and feasible, the BLM provides the materials for the projects. Ranchers provide the labor.
If Congress approves President George W. Bush's proposal to cut the Rangeland Improvement Program, ranchers might not receive that service anymore, BLM rangeland management specialist Andrea Miller said.
"They would have to fund more of their own projects," Miller said.
The Rangeland Improvement Program is part of the Taylor Grazing Act, approved by Congress in 1930. In part, the act established grazing districts on public land. Fifty percent of the grazing fees that ranchers pay to graze cattle on the land currently return to the grazing district to fund improvements.
In grazing allotments outside of the districts established by the Taylor Grazing Act, 50 percent of grazing fees are distributed to the county where the grazing occurs. The other 50 percent go toward range improvements.
Counties still will receive their funds, but the range improvement money will be diverted elsewhere. Miller said she's heard the money still may be available for range improvements, but she stressed that nothing was certain. The BLM and ranchers would have to "compete with the pot that's available," she said.
Moffat County Commissioner Darryl Steele, who ranches east of Maybell, was concerned about the effect the potential cut would have on Northwest Colorado.
"This isn't pork barrel stuff. The money is actually generated by grazing fees to go back to range improvements," Steele said.
Regardless of whether or not the program is eliminated, grazing fees are going to increase as of March 1.
Grazing fees will increase to $1.79 per animal unit month, up from $1.34 per animal unit month. An animal unit month is the amount of forage needed to sustain one cow and her calf, one horse, or five sheep or goats for a month.
Grazing fees are calculated using a base value set in 1966 of $1.23 that is adjusted according to three factors: current private grazing land lease rates, beef cattle prices and the cost of livestock production. Based on the formula, the 2005 fee rose primarily because of an increase in beef cattle prices in 2004.

Days before former WWE "manager" William "Paul Bearer" Moody died, TMZ reports he confided in a friend that he was suffering from a blood clot. "Cowboy" Bob Kelly, a board member of the Cauliflower Alley Club, a society of professional wrestlers, reportedly spoke with Moody Saturday, at a reunion.
Kelly says Moody appeared in bad health, and had a serious breathing problem. People attending the event say Moody, who also used the stage name "Percy Pringle III," had trouble standing for long periods of time. According to Kelly, Moody went to the hospital following the event.
Moody passed away Tuesday evening, triggering an outpouring of support, from both fans and wrestlers. WWE's top superstar John Cena sent out a tweet, summing up the wrestling community's reaction best, saying, "I think most everyone in WWE has a great story about Paul Bearer. I have many, and will always cherish them." Moody was 58 years old.

Here's a brief test of étiquette. You're a writer accused of asking an inappropriate question to a famous actor in a national magazine. Another writer takes you to task for what she sees as a history of this kind of inappropriateness. Your response?
a.) Ignore the criticism—you can't please everyone, right?
b.) Explain yourself—you really didn't intend to offend.
c.) Promptly imply that the other writer is jealous and unfuckable.
If you answered c.), hey! You must be Andrew Goldman! Step right up here to accept this week's Douchebag Decree.
What happened was this: Goldman compiles the New York Times Magazine's weekly "Talk" section, and on October 7, his subject was Hollywood legend Tippi Hedren, star of The Birds and Marnie and, as revealed in a new HBO movie, the victim of a pattern of harassment by director Alfred Hitchcock that ended up ruining her career. "The worst abuse happened after you rebuffed [Hitchcock's] advances," asked Goldman. "Actors have been known to sleep with less powerful directors for advancement in show business. Did you ever consider it?"
Rolling her eyes at this question was Jennifer Weiner, bestselling author and vocal anti-douchebag activist, who already had a wary eye on Goldman based on some of his previous Talk pieces. "Saturday am. Iced coffee. NYT mag. See which actress Andrew Goldman has accused of sleeping her way to the top. #traditionsicoulddowithout," she tweeted, to which Goldman replied "Little Freud in me thinks you would have liked at least to have had opportunity to sleep way to top."
Here's the thing: The question itself was not out of bounds. The interview with Hedren was occasioned by HBO's The Girl, which tells the true story of an ingenue (Hedren, as played by Sienna Miller) whose burgeoning movie career takes a sinister turn when her director (Hitchcock, essayed by Toby Jones) harasses, threatens, and stalks her when she won't sleep with him. In context, the question, graceless as it was, made sense, though it's clear by the end of the printed interview that Hedren won't be sending Goldman a fruit basket or anything. (Responding to a question she perceives as badly researched, Hedren says, "Sometimes I get so annoyed with you writers." The clear winner in this whole thing is Hedren—seriously, read the whole interview if you haven't.)
Goldman—who used to write the "Cherchez La Femme" column for Elle—has long asked his interviewees, both male and female, about their sex lives, often deploying awkward lines of questioning. (To Will.i.am, in a 2011 interview: "From talking to other men, did you ever consider that you might be less sexual than other guys?") But the entertainment industry's power imbalance is one that notoriously tilts toward misogyny, and Goldman's history of invoking it (his above-linked Q&A with Whitney Cummings accused both Cummings and Chelsea Handler of horizontal leverage) has begun, as Weiner noted, to look very much like a pattern. And even if, ignoring that pattern, his question to Hedren didn't look on its face like a d-bag move—Goldman surely knows better than to step to a woman whose chief passion is raising and training lions, tigers, and other big deadly cats, right?—his response to Weiner's call-out definitely was. The fact that that was his first response? And that he felt no compunction about broadcasting it to Weiner and the rest of the Internet? That speaks volumes about both him and the journalistic culture in which he earns his living.
Goldman later apologized to Weiner via Twitter, writing "Many smart women, including wife, [said] tweet made me seem to be a man I wouldn't want to be and know I'm not. Very sorry." Weiner accepted the apology, and it seemed like the incident was sewn up and filed under "Writers: Don't say stupid shit on Twitter! Exhibit 12,367." But a pleasant twist was that the whole debacle caught the eye of the NYT's public editor, Margaret Sullivan. The Paper of Record has been in the news quite a bit over the last couple of years for the seriously questionable framing of some of its stories—you'll recall, for instance, the coverage of a 2011 Texas gang-rape case that suggested an 11-year-old girl was partly responsible for her horrifying, months-long ordeal. And as its first female ombudsperson, Sullivan took the opportunity to open up a measured can of whoop-ass on a long tradition of sausage-party journalism.
"Is it ever acceptable for a journalist to ask a successful woman if she has slept her way to the top?," Sullivan wrote in yesterday's column, "A Twitter Outburst and Another Chance for Andrew Goldman". "If he does, and a female reader criticizes him for it, is it a forgivable offense for him to suggest that she is complaining only because she wishes that she, too, could have had that opportunity? Can you believe we're talking about this in 2012?"
Sullivan outlined the events and offered Hugo Lindgren, the magazine's editor, a chance to address the debacle and defend Goldman—which Lindgren did in part by invoking the old, "It can't be sexist if another woman says it's not!" defense. (To wit: "For what it's worth, his editor and top editor are both women. They did not object to the question.") But the final word was all hers, and it was pretty righteous: Noting that Weiner, when Sullivan contacted her, said that "[Goldman] is talented, and funny. I would like to see him do his job better," Sullivan wrote, "It sounds as though he's going to get that chance. Given his misbehavior on Twitter and his status as a highly replaceable freelancer, I think his editors are extraordinarily generous to give it to him." (Are you imagining Sullivan blowing the smoke off her finger guns after writing this? I am.)
As you'd expect, quite a few of Goldman's male colleagues have been circling the wagons on Twitter this morning, pointing to Sullivan's letter as a tempest in a teapot and contesting the charges of misogyny. Goldman himself won't be joining the fray—he disabled his Twitter account shortly after apologizing to Weiner—but the dynamic that allowed him to think he could respond to criticism with such blithely douchey dismissal will undoubtedly chug on. Good for keeping us in Douchebag Decrees, not so great for those who can't afford to dismiss instances of obvious sexism as harmless, momentary outbursts.

Yay for Sullivan for speaking out against sexist framing in the media! Too bad she is so dismissive of joining the changing tide in regard to language used to describe undocumented immigrants.

Anjasa replied on
I really like the idea of giving him a second chance, but for a reason that isn't immediately obvious.
When a man says something stupid and offensive, is reprimanded and then fired, he just finds another job with a big group of assholes who love men that say something stupid and offensive. Let's face it, there are some sites that seriously believe that any publicity is good publicity and will jump at the chance to hire a very public jackass.
But if they're reprimanded and allowed to keep their job, they realize they're on a thin line, and are then more careful about what they say. They learn to think about what they're saying and why it might be offensive, and perhaps, along the way, learn empathy and compassion.
I agree with Goldman
A.B. Dada replied on
Weiner should shut her piehole -- she would have absolutely no chance of finding her way into Hollywood through the casting couch.
I know some beautiful actresses who are heading for strong success because they know how to do business in show business.
Short skirts, push-up bras and makeup won't help a Manjaw like Steiner. Well, maybe on the Oprah channel or something.

The Peugeot 208 is certainly an attractive subcompact hatchback, but it apparently can serve as an equally attractive crossover as well, if the Urban Crossover Concept — which debuted at the Beijing Auto Show this week — is any indication.
Peugeot says the UCC is a "multi-role compact vehicle" for those living in "mega-conurbations," but in reality, it's likely a pretty close look at what a forthcoming 208-based crossover might look like. Physically, the UCC is rather small: at 163 inches long and 68.5 inches wide, it's 5.5 inches shorter and 1.3 inches narrower than the already compact Opel Mokka, which will be sold in the U.S. as the Buick Encore in short order.
Designers from Paris, Brazil, and China kept much of the 208's identity and sweeping lines intact, though we'd argue the UCC's front fascia – which wears a grille similar to that used on the slinky HX1 concept – is a little cleaner than the 208. A C-shaped character line rises from just aft of the front fenders, and carries through to the tail of the UCC, where they neatly wrap into "claw-shaped" LED tail lamp elements.
At this stage, the concept is devoid of an interior and powertrain, but since Peugeot notes the UCC is derived from the 208's architecture, there's a good chance many of the hatchback's engine choices could carry over into a production crossover. Presently, the 208's gasoline engine offerings range from a 68-hp, 1.0-liter I-3 through a 115-hp turbocharged 1.6-liter I-4. The 208 GTI concept sported a 200-hp version of that same 1.6-liter but we'd be surprised if the performance model's driveline remains exclusive to a forthcoming GTI.
We don't expect this to be the last we hear of the Urban Crossover Concept. Peugeot plans on showing another iteration at the Paris Motor Show in September, which suggests the automaker is testing the waters before it officially launches a micro-sized crossover. If so, it's not a moment too soon: such a vehicle may be key for Peugeot's growth in several markets, including China, South America, and Europe, where compact crossovers continue to resonate with buyers seeking a small, thrifty, SUV-like vehicle.

Town Mouse and Country Mouse went last year, and we had a great time. You can read our reports from that show here, and here, and here. There will be beautiful and strange and overdone and pretend-sustainable and colorful and architected gardens to see. There will be stuff to buy. And there will be booths from various organizations: Country Mouse and I will work the CNPS booth again.
Alice of Bay Area Tendrils has some insider information about the show, and I'll be watching her blog carefully. Last year she posted pictures early in the show, very enticing and fun -- us mice go Sunday, work does get in the way. And Laura of Interleafings is the publicist for the show and promises a great party. Please come! she says.

I love teaching, and explaining how networks of linked neurons carry out complex cognitive behavior.
My dissertation research in Behavioral Neuroscience examined nicotine effects on spatial attention, time perception, and boredom in non-smokers. Some earlier (pre-2001) studies of nicotine had reported cognitive improvements, but assessed these changes in habitual smokers, where results may have been linked to relief from withdrawal effects. I carried out this research in Dr. Barry Oken's lab at OHSU...
In addition to working with students at WSU Vancouver, Portland State University, Oregon Health & Science University, and Portland Community College, I routinely bring brains (rat, monkey, human) to K-8 classrooms at Sabin, Jason Lee, and Harrison Park, and to students at Madison, Jefferson, Parkrose, Franklin, and other Portland area public high schools.
I've developed collaborative relationships with multiple area educational institutions, and can offer neuroscience outreach opportunities for undergraduates and graduates from OHSU, PSU, WSU-V and elsewhere. For more information on outreach, and how to get involved, please visit...

Magnetic Therapy Bracelets
When purchasing Magnetic Bracelets, it is important that you purchase a bracelet that fits well. If the bracelet doesn't fit correctly, a large percentage of the power will be lost leaving you with a bracelet that is not effective. Your new magnetic bracelet should fit snugly, but not tightly. If the bracelet is too loose, you will lose some of the power of the magnets. If the bracelet is too tight, it could cause your arm or hand to swell.To ensure the correct fit, first measure your wrist with a tape measure. Wrap it leaving the tape measure flat and tight around your wrist. Then, add 1/2 inch to the measurement. This should allow for a snug fit, but also give you room for a bit of a gap giving your wrist some "breathing room".If you do purchase a size that you find doesn't fit well, Beads-N-Style is happy to provide a Free Exchange for the correct size.
Magnetic Therapy Rings
Our rings are sized according to The Official International Ring Size Conversion Chart. If you are unsure of your ring size, this chart will guide you to the correct ring size. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at email@example.com.
Aromatherapy Jewelry
Aromatherapy Bracelets sizes are the length of the bracelet in inches. If you measure your wrist size with a tape measure and then add 1/2" to 1" to the length (based on our close you would like the bracelet to fit), you should be able to choose the perfect sized bracelet for you.

Just was curious if anyone else on this site has ever packed with Packgoats?
Just was curious if anyone else on this site has ever packed with Packgoats?
No but I saw the post on it this morning and did some research and found this website.
Seem to go over pack goats pretty extensively... Plus you can rent from them and try it out for yourself.
I have not, but there's a guy, gila dog, who posts often on BushcraftUSA.com and on some other similar sites who has goats and packs with them regularly in New Mexico. You might want to look at his posts and contact him directly. Just go to bushcraftUSA.com and search for packgoats.

We do not go to the green woods and crystal waters to rough it, we go to smooth it. We get it rough enough at home; in towns and cities; -George W. Nessmuk Sears-
I've also checked out the above site and thought it would be pretty cool to try them. Also thought of dogs too. Mountain dogs or Saint Benard
How much maintenance are they to hunt with Montana?
They really are pretty easy. You do not have to pack food or water for them, that part is nice. They can carry around 35-40 pounds on each of them. I know I am going to get teased on this one but I hunt alone quite a bit and they are actually fun to have around camp, not that way Tremendous to have around kids and the family. It's a bit of a controversial but I will not lie, they are outstanding decoys and allow you to really get in on game.
Do you have to keep them on leashes or tied off all the time? Or do they follow you like dogs?
Also jonboy. In guy eastmans book "hunting high country mule deer" he talks about using pack goats. I'm pretty sure its that book. if not its cam hanes book. Backcountry bowhunting.

When hiking no leashes... At night it just depends on what country I am in. 2 years ago I was in a basin and the wolves were howling like crazy. That night I tied them up close to the tent, the first time ever, it saved their life. I know of at least 2 wolves that came in and attacked one of the goats. It was over in seconds, by the time I got to my pistol and opened the tent they were gone. If the goats weren't tied up they would have ran away and of course they would have been too far away for me to scare away the wolves. Aside of that crazy incident, they usually are off the leash but still sleep within 50 yards of the tent.
I think that would be one of the pluses, not that any one would want to see their goat die, but I like the idea of a predator eating my goat before me!

Rockets hold Bulls to 77 pts without Yao in Chicgao tonight, but our allstar team could not? Rockets 84-77. Oh well I guess the Bulls get up for the Pistons like most teams do...
This was Chicago's 3rd game in 4 nights. All the Chicago guards were ice cold. Dead legs. Hinrich, his fell off on the 2nd of a back to back. Gordon's fell off tonight.
more review of game I have watched most of the game 3 times now. The 2nd quarter only twice. Will Blalock did not have a bad game. He was plus 4, and his defense was a large part of that. Blalock always manages to stay in the play. Good footwork. The opposing point guard never shakes him to gain room to operate. Also, Blalock got us quickly into our offensive sets, and had several potential assists. (shots just not made.) His most blaring mistake, an attempted pass to Maxiell inside, was not so blaring after all on review. I believe JMAX was being held on that play. He never got off the ground to make an attempt to catch the pass. Was it too high-even if it was, it was still a decent attempt to give Maxiell a dunk. I will always accept mistakes where an attempt at a score was made. Flip Murray in contrast to Blalock continually lost contact with the opposing point guard. Pretty much free reign for their points with Murray covering. Murray had truly horrible shot selection, although I will give him this: At least he took his open shots for the most part. Yes he bricked them, but at least he had the guts to take the open shot. The worst mistake of the game was Delfino's inbound pass that was nowhere near any Piston and gave Gordon a layup. But Delfino also hit some shots, took some charges, and pulled down rebounds. A far better game than Flip Murray had. Also, when Gordon was hot, we left Delfino guarding him, even though Murray was in the game. Tell me, if Delfino is the better point defender, then why does Flip Murray ever play at all? One more thing. Nope, Sheed not for a moment let up his effort in this one. They swarmed Tay any time he got the ball. Rip gave it his all until exhausted from getting no rest. And was making plenty of mistakes toward the end. Billups was sitting in street clothes. Flip Saunders made up a story.
Please name another NBA player in history who played 18+ minutes and had turnovers > to the sum of all his other stats (points + rebounds + assists + steals + blocks). I have reason to believe that this is the only time it has EVER happened. If that is indeed the case, then I must declare Will Blalock to have officially played the worst game in the history of organized basketball last Saturday against the Bulls. However, Flip Murray gave him a run for his money.
What's all the fuss with a late 2nd rnd PG thrust into a backup role? its great that he has the opportunity to play...which is more that can be said for Delfino, Maxiell, and Amir. What have we seen? He needs development time. He could be a good backup PG but he really isn't one now. Can he become one this season? I think its doubtful. I honestly think that given time and opportunity, he'll be there by his 3rd season. Can he get some game time and not kill us...hells yes. But he's not the guy to carry you for 15 minutes a game. Its more like, we're in control of this game, blalock get out there. If the team is clicking and he goes out there, he'll look ok. He does the little things that help out. But if the team is not, he's not the guy to rally the troops, yet. Its too bad Flip hasn't taken advantage of his opportunity. I really didn't think having CB AND LH out so early would ever happen. Instead of proving he should start, he's battling the rookie to see who sucks less.
It's important to remember that Will is only making $412,718, the absolute lowest league salary. Just over half of what Dupree makes.
I don't dislike the guy at all. I just think somebody needs to contradict the assertion that he just had a good game, when in fact he did not. Just keeping it real. And then once I got into it, I stumbled accross the possibility that he produced a statistical anomaly. It's not often that you set records in the NBA with all the games played. And by my calculations, Will did something that hasn't been done in over 1.5 million attempts. (Also, remember that Blalock is getting about $137,572 per field goal.)
are you sure? i think it happens a LOT. and to decent guys too. I had a bunch in fantasy league. But my tirade wasn't on you. just in general. I'll find some staty things.
mike dunleavy. 19 minutes NBA - Milwaukee Bucks/Golden State Warriors Box Score Saturday December 2, 2006 - Yahoo! Sports
A large part of the problem there was floor spacing. He was about to get a 5 second violation, dice looked like he was moving towards the outside to open himself up, but then he cut in towards the traffic near the basket. Delfino threw it as Dice cut, and that was that.
I can't believe you dug that up. Brilliant! I'm sure Mike actually had a very solid performance that night despite his lack of tangibles. I wonder why their coach took him out.
This would be a good question for Elias Sports Bureau. The come up with the goofiest stats imaginable. Getting turnovers >= all good stats in 18+ minutes doesn't seem all that unusual. It's just really ugly stats for one game. I bet there's a player who did it in an All-Star year. Here's another one from earlier this season: DeShawn Stevenson, 11/22/06: 19 minutes, 0 points (0-7 shooting), 1 rebound, 1 assist, 1 steal, 3 turnovers and 4 fouls.
These are pretty funny. The formula seems to be perimeter defensive specialists who happen to miss all their shots. They don't get rebounds because they are stuck on the perimeter. They don't get steals or blocks because the other team avoids challenging them. Seems like Bruce Bowen was born for this stat. Research team? Also, we have found players who's turns = the sum, but we haven't found any who exceed it. Still, if we have 3 examples from the last 2 months, then it must be a very common occurance. In light of all this, I will upgrade my characterization of Blalock's game from "worst ever" to "exceptionally futile." My apologies to Mr. Three-hundred-fifty-six.
if you play fantasy basketball, you can see this happen and you remember it cuz you go and your jaw hurts. its rare but it happens but I was looking around and it didn't happen as much as i thought.
Defensive specialists tend to do a little rebounding - Bruce Bowen doesn't, but most of them hustle a bit. I think a player like Jalen Rose or Adam Morrison would pick up that kind of statline more frequently - or maybe a shoot-first rookie point guard.
You have to miss all your shots to have a chance at this dubious phenomenon. Morrison had horrendous games but genrally did enough other things to avoid this.
The Collins twins (Jason and Jaron) aren't defensive specialists and definitely don't hustle, but I know that in their 5+ years in the league they have probably had several stats lines like that and one of them starts...
The thing is, the Collins twins never have the ball in their hands long enough to turn it over, and both of them are decent - not as good as they should be, but not pathetic - rebounders, so unless they got called for a ton of illegal picks or 3-second violations it would be hard to put up those numbers. I'd bet that Darko will achieve that distinction sometime in his career. Edit: Nazr did it in 12 minutes earlier this season: Nov 11 @ GSW L 111-79 12 0-0 0-0 0-2 0 1 1 0 0 0 2 3 0 Earl Boykins managed to put this up - it doesn't qualify, but somehow it looks even worse: Nov 28 vs. MEM L 96-108 15 0-5 0-1 0-0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 Michael Curry's retired, but they didn't call him "Binary Man" for nothing.
Yes yes. Nazr proved that it is phsyically possible to exceed the threshold (2:1) in this example. If Flip would have played him another 6 minutes that night, a rebound or two would have probably found him and spoiled it.

It's not the only chronic condition that today's child has to counter, of course. Asthma and eczema, to name but two, are also affecting more and more children.
But most of these childhood conditions have at least had a plausible explanation for their cause or causes, and usually it's been one or more environmental factors.
Peanut allergy, however, has remained an enigma. Causes mooted have ranged from breastfeeding mothers to a diet high in peanuts from an early age, but none has seemed too convincing.
Researchers believe they finally have the key after studying 49 children with a proven peanut allergy. They believe that the main cause is the use of creams containing peanut oil to treat problems such as nappy rash, eczema, and dry skin conditions. The risk of an allergy from a cream is heightened if the wound is open or oozing, researchers at St Mary's Hospital, London have posited.
The suspected oils, all over-the-counter remedies, contain peanut oil, nut oils or soy oil. Another risk factor could be the early consumption of peanut butter, they say.

Angels give up on Teixeira
Scott Boras expressed disappointment Sunday over the Angels' decision to withdraw their contract offer to his client, Mark Teixeira.
Team spokesman Tim Mead confirmed Sunday the Angels have withdrawn their offer and are "out of the Mark Teixeira derby." The Angels' offer has been reported as eight years and $160 million. Other reports have other clubs surpassing that offer.
"Mark Teixeira enjoyed his time with the Angels and was an integral part of their success last season," Boras said in a prepared statement. "His interest in returning to the club has been sincere, real and continues to be one of his earnest priorities throughout this offseason.
"Clubs are very aware — in particular the Angels — (that) participation in the free agent process does not signal lack of interest in signing with the club. Case in point, the Angels signed two great free-agent players who engaged in the mechanism, receiving and exchanging offers with multiple clubs, while negotiating with the Angels. Therefore, we are assuming that reasons, other than Teixeira's interest in returning to the Angels, were the driving factor."
Boras was referring to Vladimir Guerrero, who signed with the Angels before the 2004 season, and Torii Hunter, who signed last fall.
Later, Boras said he has not closed the door to more talks with the Angels.
"Just because you get a pitch up and in doesn't mean you get out of the box," he said.
The Angels signed Hunter for an average of $18 million for five years, a subject that came up in the Teixeira negotiations.
Boras' newest client is Garret Anderson, who became a free agent and was not offered arbitration by the Angels.
"Once Tex and Manny (Ramirez, another Boras client) get their contracts done, I think the focus will go to a group of players that includes Garret," Boras said.
That group includes outfielders Pat Burrell, Bobby Abreu, Adam Dunn and Milton Bradley.
The Boston Red Sox said last week that they "are not going to be a factor" in signing the Maryland native. Washington and Baltimore have expressed interest in Teixeira, 28.
The Angels obtained Teixeira from the Atlanta Braves in late July. Playing in a combined 157 games with the Angels and Braves, Teixeira batted .308, with 33 homers and 121 RBIs.

That is so wrong Im not sure where to begin. Even if he did make a mistake and send Wikileaks those cables. Why is he in solitery he is 19. Hardily a threat to anyone other than himself. This isn't going to stop people releasing of classfied information it is going to do the opposite, its an outrage. He is so young its your fault for putting him in this position. Why is his commander not in jail.

I suppose the command will take the full 90 days to answer the
complaint. In the meantine, PFC Manning isn't being punished because
'punishment doesn't happen till after he would be found guility.' I
feel so bad that my country has fallen to such low tactics. No rule of
law, compassion from the "captors." They are punishing him eventhough
he has not been convicted of any crime. And this irresponsible
behavior goes on and on throughout our government, at every level,
from Obama down to the lowest officer/office worker.
WayneC Of course. Why am I not surprised? He will be brought before a kangaroo court in secret only after the date he is supposed to be released, and he will absolutely not be able to participate in his own defense. This is beyond disgusting.
Hamdi, Padilla and now Manning. What good does it do the United States to put someone one trial once he's been reduced to a vegetable?
He is a modern-day real-life Jesus Christ, who is giving his life but first his mind and soul to save humanity, IF and ONLY IF the US Government collapses and disappears like the old Soviet Union. Otherwise, it's World War 3. And no, Revolution is not feasible.- AnonymousMarch 3, 2011 at 9:13 AM
All he wanted to do is expose the American govt for what they do ! We have thieves running this country and the media backing up those thieves ! The head thief in charge of our once great country> Obama ! Who never kept any of his campaign promises and is now in bed with the banks and wall street thieves

Mission Viejo takes hard fall against Inglewood
INGLEWOOD — If this is the end for Mission Viejo this season, what a run it has been. Diablos coach Troy Roelen just didn't foresee his team getting tripped up in the fashion it did.
Rebounding woes, turnovers, a five second-violation and a busted play all added up to a 64-61 loss to Inglewood in the CIF-SS Division 1AA quarterfinals on Friday at Inglewood High.
Inglewood (19-9) will play at top-seeded Mater Dei in the semifinals on Tuesday.
"Atypical," Roelen said. "It's just one or two possessions here or there that makes the whole difference."
The final difference came down to Mission Viejo's final two possessions. Trailing by three with half a minute remaining, the Diablos were called for a five second violation, this after calling timeout to prevent the same infraction. They then managed to force a jumpball and regained possession.
OCVarsity Hot Shots: Friday's basketball games
The clock ran down as Mission Viejo was unable to get the ball to senior guard Evan Zeller. With three seconds left, junior forward Chandler Hutchision attempted a 3-pointer from the top of the key that fell short.
All might not be lost for fourth-seeded Mission Viejo (26-4), which can still earn a bid in the open division of the state tournament. If not, the program has gone 107-17 over the past four seasons, winning the South Coast League title each year and appearing in a section championship game the previous two seasons.
"It's something unreal," Roelen said. "There are not a lot of public schools where kids win over 100 games."
The Diablos turned the ball over seven times in the fourth quarter after doing so just five times in the first three quarters combined. That, and the defense of Inglewood guard Randy Onwuasor, kept the ball out of Zeller's hands. Zeller scored 15 points, but was shut out in the fourth quarter.
The Diablos' other Achilles' heel was defending the glass, as Inglewood procured eight offensive rebounds in the fourth quarter.
A 3-pointer by Cordell Anderson capped an 11-0 run in the third quarter that gave the Diablos a 50-36 lead.
Anderson finished with 11 points, and Stone had 10.

Lya Swaner Top 30 Finalist for NCAA Woman of the Year
Posted by Tiger Pride in Alumni, Athletics, Honors
A student-athlete must typically balance the roles of being a full-time student and a full-time athlete. ETBU graduate and former softball player Lya Swaner balanced her roles very well and has been recognized by the NCAA. Swaner is on an elite list as she has been named as a Top 30 finalist for NCAA Woman of the Year.
Swaner, who began her career in 2010 when the Tigers won the NCAA Division III national championship, was a four year starter at catcher for head coach Janae Shirley. This past May, she graduated with honors as a double major in chemistry and biology. On softball road trips playing in NCAA Tournaments or American Southwest Conference games and tournaments, she would not only pack her softball gear but her chemistry and biology text books as well. On many road trips, she could be found in the lobby studying or as the team bus traveled down the road, the books would be opened as well.
The 2013 NCAA Woman of the Year will be announced at an annual ceremony in Indianapolis on October 20.
A huge "Tiger Clap" for this outstanding student-athlete and graduate. Click here for more on Swaner's nomination as NCAA Woman of the Year.

At a time when many newspapers are struggling to exist due to competition from the Internet, The Dallas Morning News is proving the need for an independent source of news and information.
The News is constantly documenting instances of apparent graft, corruption and illegal acts. For some strange reason, Dallas area law enforcement offices never seem to find such information if elected officials, their friends or their business associates are involved.
When large government is given access to public money, politicians will always devise methods to siphon off a portion to themselves, their friends and associates.

Along with his skills as a driver — he won the 1990 Knoxville Nationals in a career that numbers over 276 sprint car feature victories and put him in the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame — Allen's work as a designer and fabricator are also legendary. His rookies will drive the only Shark chassis in the field at Devil's Bowl.
"Today everything is bought; there are manufacturers for the cars and all the parts; nothing is built out of the garage anymore," he noted. "It's gotten more business-like down the line. I'm a little the other way though."
More borrowing went on, too.
"Back when I was driving, people would come to my shop and I'd give them old tires or little things that I had that they might need, and they'd do the same for me," he remembered. "Jimmy Boyd just mentioned a front axle I gave him years ago. Now that I'm back on the road, people are coming up to me and reminding me of things I gave them at one time or another."
It wasn't called paying it forward at the time but those kindnesses are coming back to him now, and he mentioned how thankful he is for help from people like engine builders Don Ott and Charlie Garrett.
Although sprint car racing is more business-like today, Allen said one thing that hasn't changed much in 36 years is the cars themselves.
"They're basically the same, but the motors and the tires have changed a lot," he said. "The motors generate more horsepower and stay together longer, and the tires have gotten better, too. With every tire company that's been involved in sprint car racing, we've learned something. Nowadays what's big as far as the engines go is the fuel set-ups. We've learned a lot about shocks too; that's really important.
"The technology has gotten much better," he summarized. "But everything costs more and more big business is involved than there was in the past."
With this weekend's show, called the Texas Outlaw Nationals presented by American Racing Custom Wheels, the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series is making its first appearance at Devil's Bowl in more than a decade. Former driver Shane Carson is organizing a reunion of some of the drivers who were there in March 1978 when it all started. Included in this year's event is an autograph session for the "original outlaws" like Allen on Saturday afternoon.
Bobby Allen didn't compete in that first race, but he did race at a "test" two-day show that Johnson promoted at Lincoln Speedway in New Oxford, Pa. in 1977. Allen was in plenty of other WoO shows in 1978 though, and he finished third in the very first WoO season behind the champion, Steve Kinser, and Rick Ferkel. Doug Wolfgang and Jack Hewitt rounded out the top five.
Boyd won the series' inaugural event March 18, 1978, ironically in a non-winged car.
Allen said he met Johnson a few years before that first WoO race at a race in Shreveport, La., and he was involved in Johnson's first promotion at Lincoln before the World of Outlaws was formed.
"I just love racing and I wanted people to see how they ran at places like Knoxville and Manzanita," he said. "Some people had never seen guys run up against the wall like they do at places like that.
"I wanted to have guys like Jimmy Boyd, Doug Wolfgang, Chuck Amati and people like that put on a show at Lincoln, and Ted was talking to all of us about organizing a series," he said. "Originally it was Ted; me, and my sponsor, the M & J Coal Co., that were going to promote that show at Lincoln, but then they bought me out and I just drove in it. I can't remember exactly when it was or who won though."
Allen has seen a lot of different tracks and been in a lot of races since then, too.
Now all his attention is focused on getting Schuchart and Jacob Allen more experience.
They will be getting their first look at Devil's Bowl this weekend. Devil's Bowl is unique because the frontstretch is a little lower than the backstretch, so the drivers go up and down hill during the course of a lap. It will definitely be challenging, but they're both looking forward to experiencing it for themselves.

My First Actemra Infusion
Sorry for not posting sooner, and commenting and everything. I've been finalizing my first special issue of House & Home – Kitchens & Baths, on sale on newsstands March 28! – and have been crazy busy!
I had my first Actemra (tocilizumab) infusion yesterday. (By the way, I have no clue how to even begin to say the generic name of this drug, only the brand name. If you're curious, check out this blog post to find out how drugs get their often freakishly unpronounceable names.)
Leotard kindly offered to come along with me to keep me company. Personally I think she just likes to see me suffer. Lol! Or she has a fascination with medical matters – which, I confess, I also do. Or she's a genuinely good, caring friend. Whatever the case may be, I was happy to have her along. She keeps me laughing and distracted from the matters at hand. Like getting a needle in my wrist and being infused with a drug that was just approved last January and that, as everyone has been warned, has caused one death. Yes, one death.
I knew that going in.
I do my research. I read the obligatory side-effects warnings, and I know what I'm getting into. All the drugs I'm on, for rheumatoid arthritis and migraines, have scary-sounding side effects, and bad things happen. But I'm more likely to get hit by a car crossing the street. Or smack my head falling down in the tub, or slip on ice and also smack my head during the interminable winter we've been having here, quite frankly. And I kinda like to be able to move, you know? So getting the drug was the plan.
I hadn't been at all sure what to expect from the infusion clinic, but it was super comfy. There were about 11 La-Z-Boy–type recliners, each with a pillow on it and curtains that you could draw for privacy. There was even a big-screen TV. Kind of like first class in a plane – or what I imagine first class in a plane would be like, since I've never actually experienced first class!
Leotard and I went to the back of the room, so she could sit beside me, and we made ourselves comfortable.
Then the very kind infusion lady came around and set to work. She weighed me (I have lost yet more weight!!!) and took my blood pressure and temperature. Then she inserted the IV line; aside from a momentary pinch, it wasn't too bad. She set up a saline solution line first, explaining that once the Actemra came over from the pharmacy, she'd hook that up. So there Leotard and I sat, chatting, until the Actemra was hooked up. Then I curled up and closed my eyes, while Leotard played games on her cell phone and read magazines (what a good friend! sticking around even though I was ignoring her!!). In between, my blood pressure and temperature were taken a few times. An hour later, the infusion was done. After that, I had to stick around for another half an hour to make sure I was OK, my blood pressure was taken again, and then I could go.
Done and done!
Now we'll see how the Actemra works for me (my hands and feet have been more "there," if that makes sense, since I stopped taking Enbrel three weeks ago, and my legs have gotten that loose feeling they haven't had in ages), and what my blood-work results are each month going forward.
Keep your fingers crossed!

Hi have severe ra. just been told i can start actemra. i am scared, but all i have been doing is laying in bed i am tired and have taken a package from my job. i just want my life back. I am really scared because i read that there have been some deaths. i have not responded to enbrel, in fact it made me more tired. tried methatrexate and sulfur and ended up in hospital. have gained weight from steroids. on a positive note, they helped with my hay fever. i am at my wits end and i just want my life back
ReplyDeleteI began actemra last year and have been taking monthly for about 8 months. So far, it has worked compared to embrel, humira, methotrexate, and plaquinil. I was allergic to remecade and orencia. I'm almost back to normal, but I think my stress level has something to do with why I'm still experiencing stiffness and occasional cramping.

Wes Welker hints that contract talks are on hold because of draft |
04.24.12 at 2:23 pm ET |
Patriots wide receiver Wes Welker made the rounds at ESPN on Tuesday and talked about a number of things, including his contract situation. Some of that has already been covered here, but he also sat down with Hannah Storm on the Tuesday morning "SportsCenter" where he talked about the state of his contract negotiations, and how they're probably on hold at the moment because of draft preparations.
'Obviously we're looking for a long-term deal, and I think with the body of work that I've showed over the past five years that kind of warrants that," he said. 'And, you know, hopefully we get to that point and get something done, and cooler heads prevail, and we're able to make something happen.
'I'm sure with the draft and everything else, there's a lot of other things that kind of take [precedent]. And you know how coach Belichick works… right now he's in draft mode. And I'm sure after the draft, you know, hopefully we're able to come together and hopefully figure something out.'

...laser cat....
some questions about the translation of volume 12. when the 4 MISAKA clones are speaking, it was translated as 'speech', as MISAKA 'description' this does not make much sense in English. wouldn't it be better to translate their speech by removing the 'as' for example: "'In other words, she is keeping it secret from other Misakas that she's doing secret, stealthy, unclean behavior (a diet)?' as Misaka 10032 would follow up." and change it to "'In other words, she is keeping it secret from other Misakas that she's doing secret, stealthy, unclean behavior (a diet)?' Misaka 10032 follows up." There are several of their lines that work well both ways though. Just food for translation thought. |

EDIT: I just noticed but in some forums Uiharu seems to be hated, some calls her "talkative pot", the scene where Kakine stomps her is called "fanservice" or just they Kakine an hero.

On the topic of Group... Only Accelerator and Etzali are pretty well developed, Tsuchimikado... We know nothing about his past and how he got roped into all this, Awaki- Her motivation is supposedly her comrades locked up, but we never even got to know them... (Unless this was in vol 15 cause I haven't read it yet)

(I'm assuming that magicians like Sherry or Stiyl would be able to outmatch a van full of Hound Dogs, and someone that might actually be a threat to Mikoto in a fight - Mikoto vs Hound Dogs is pretty much just a one-way beatdown for the poor sods fighting the Railgun) @Shinji103: 1) Mikoto's win in the fight with ITEM was less due to Mikoto's own skill and more because of Mugino's arrogance IMO... Mugino told the others to retreat so she can fight Mikoto one on one, and then fell for Mikoto's trap at the end. Even at the start Mikoto wasn't fighting ITEM at full power - one member was at another site, and Frenda was already down when Mugino finally stepped in. 2) Mikot have the skills, and maybe the capability for battle... but probably not the experience. She's probably like one of those rookies that is talented but lack field experience. I'll concede that Mikoto living the 'rich girl' life doesn't mean she won't have experience... but at the same time, it doesn't means she does have experience, seeing as she haven't ran into something from the Dark Side of Academy City before that incident with Level Upper. 3) For the record, Acqua was the one that put up the area spell to prevent civilians getting in. And to your main burn that Mikoto just let Touma walked off like that... I'd like to say Mikoto's just a 14-yr old (give or take 1-2 yrs?) teenage girl, and is overwhelmed by her discovery that she has some sort of deep feeling towards Touma; BUT I'm not, nor ever have been, a teenage girl and thus can't say how a teenage girl would react in that situation So if you can't accept the reason that was implicitly stated in the novels that Mikoto is frozen by her own discovery than I can't really provide any more reasoning *shrug* |

That's crazy talk!
Power Level in Toaru is funny that way, Sherry I can see her using her Golem as a shield, but as you can see Anti-Skill got her pin down using cover fire. Stiyl I think would have a bigger problem against guns- yes he got the 'fire' power, but a straight on fight? Fires don't stop bullets. Anyway, those two can't match Mikoto if all they can bring is firepower. And From the Railgun manga we know that Mikoto can be just as resourceful as the others.

Best Uses
Comments about Alpha Beta Daily Face Peel:
I've been using the Dr. Gross pads for about a year. Even at my age I get pimples - the bright red ones and when I use the alpha pads that night, the next morning the redness is just about gone. Nothing else I've used has done that. I have combination skin and it can get sensitive but these pads don't irritate my skin. I use these pads at night and my skin is definitely clearer, though I wouldn't say my pores are smaller! I'm a fan and will keep using this product. The only thing I don't like is that it's so expensive.

If you speak Spanish, the word to describe the weather of late is "freo." That's "cold" to those of you who don't habla the Español. Whatever your language of choice, the temperatures have been abnormally low in the last week or so. What does the cold mean for our garden plants?
The short answer to that question is, "Not too much." While the temperatures haven't been pleasant for those of us who prefer the feel of sweat rolling down our backs, the plants are doing just fine.
