Well, according to the Mayans, the world will end in 8 days time. But, the big question is, how will it end? I'm betting on an asteroid strike This poll will remain open for 7 days, until the eve of the big event. Guess the 2014 Olympics is off then!
The sun will burn out at some point in the far distant future. I don't know if the world will last that long, but doubt its end is imminent. The end of the world as we know it is another thing. A cataclysmic event like running out of oil completely in the absence of alternative energy sources, or environmental degradation/food supply chain reaching a critical point, or an epidemic that threatens human kind could all mean the end of the world as we know it. But I think it's more possible that people will just change in response to changing circumstances and the conditions brought about by various disasters. If this process is slow, the world as we know it may change dramatically, but people won't really notice.
This is the way the world ends This is the way the world ends This is the way the world ends Not with a bang but a whimper. TS Eliot, "The Hollow Men"
My prediction is nuclear war, but then I thought better of it. Johnny Weir will win the Olympics, and then the world will end....that will be in 2022.
'Some say the world will end in fire, others say ice. From what I've tasted of desire, I hold with those who favor fire.' Robert Frost aside, the Mayan calendar actually restarts, not ends, so apparently we'll all be sent back to the beginning. (But seriously, the only ones of those that would actually END the WORLD would be the sun going nova, which WILL eventually happen, or a really freak sudden appearance of a black hole. The others are just mass extinction events. Not even that if the ice caps melted, there just the people who can't escape the really slow rise of sea level. The world is just a planet, and planets don't care about what's living on them.)
Well, the world ending is not the same as humanity ending, at least not to me. So for me, the world will clearly end when it is swallowed by the sun but humans (and I am sure all life) will end long before that as the heat becomes too much. As far as how do humans go extinct? Hmmm...most likely a comet strike or super volcano.
Some say the world will end in fire, Some say in ice. From what I've tasted of desire, I hold with those who favor fire. But if it had to perish twice, I think I know enough of hate To say that for destruction ice is also great And would suffice. Robert Frost, Fire and Ice
Plushenko will reveal that he is actually an alien overlord from the planet Skate, and he will go and bring his people to take over the world and turn it into a gigantic ice rink, sparing only those select few he deems worthy of his court. Can you tell I don't take the end of the world stuff seriously?
I voted for zombies, but a robot revolution sounds fun too... On another note, FSU don't have any zombie or robot revolution smilies (TAT doesn't count), but since the world is ending in about 12 days, it prolly doesn't matter...
A bolide was seen over my part of Sweden the other day, so obviously that (and the Geminids) has be the vanguard of a massive asteroid that's going to kill us all.
I chose other. The planets will align; some on one side of the sun, and the rest on the other side of the sun causing a pole shift. It will affect the gravitational pull and we'll all float around somewhere in the universe. The natural force of attraction that tends to draw the mass of the bodies together will fail. I always wanted to see first-hand the rings of Saturn.
I'd go with the asteroid, but after finding out the powers of exploding Minwax, I had to vote for others
Black hole sounds like fun and I have always been facinated by it. I will be bitterly disappointed if the world doesn't end.
When Americans rule ice dance and the Russians suck, and the Chinese have the most graceful LP.... Wait a minute *buys tin foil hat and starts picking friends by who runs slowest.*
I agree. If we could predict the day and time the world would end, don'tcha think that all those other prophets of old have been right? What I do believe is that we must pay attention to our world and our relationships because those will eventually kill us as a species.

Series by Paulette Mitchell
Paulette Mitchell, a cooking expert extraordinary who specializes in helping busy people get dinner on the table fast, takes time out from her booked-through-the-millennium cooking classes to share her secrets for speedy, sensational meals. She provides a wide variety of tips and techniques, as well as kitchen wisdom acquired through years of experience, among the hundreds of superb recipes in her new 15-Minute Gourmet series.
Mitchell says, "Why spend hours in the kitchen when you can make delicious dishes in just 15 minutes? These recipes can free you from tedious kitchen duties while adding style and good nutrition to your meals." with Paulette's meal plans, the 15-minute gourmet can dish up both comfort food and elegant dishes that will fill the kitchen with enticing aromas just as if she or he had been cooking all day.
Each of the three cookbooks contain more than 100 easy to-follow recipes that can satisfy the family on a busy weeknight or the most discriminating guests at a dinner party.
The secrets to savvy 15-minute gourmetship are selection of the right ingredients, kitchen organization, and some advance planning. The cook who plans ahead and stocks seasonings, condiments, and supplies can make a quick trip to the market to buy readily available fresh, healthful ingredients. Then, in just 15 minutes, dinner with a gourmet flair can be on the table.
"The most important thing to remember is that efficient cooking does not follow a linear progression," counsels Mitchell. "It is not necessary to complete one step before going on to another. Instead, without a lot of fuss, you can actually do two things at once. By following the plan outlined in the recipes, you can have your entire meal ready to eat at the same time." Meal planning is simple because these one-dish complete meals require only the addition of a salad. Also a bonus for meal planning, each of the recipes includes a nutritional analysis per serving.
Throughout the three cookbooks, there are crossover thinking points: discussions of fresh vs. dried herbs; the use of frozen vs. fresh veggies; how to double recipes (for herbs, it's 1-1/2!); how long you can keep leftovers refrigerated; and recipe variations to make use of your favorite fresh ingredients or those you may have on hand.
Equally, there are category-specific tips that are pertinent to each particular topic—and the results you can expect to achieve:
Each of the three cookbooks has a special audience: vegetarians, pasta-lovers, and cooks who consider chicken THE staple meat. Separately, each will provide a cook with distinctive main courses, salads, and soups in his or her food favorite, and together they create an instant library on efficient and elegant dining choices.
Paulette Mitchell is a cooking instructor, food lecturer, and award-winning author of numerous cookbooks, including The Complete Soy Cookbook, and The Complete Book of Dressings, in addition to The 15-Minute Gourmet series. She lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

SODAjournal no 2
We have a new art-journal topic at SODAlicious! We had to create a page about stres..
It wasn't a problem for me because actually I'm a stress bomb. Seriously.
As you can see my page is quite simple, but I have to admit I am very glad of it!
This brain 'drawing' took me a while, but sometimes it's really worth it to spend some more time on your journal pages :) And of course I confused the date on the left;p
A little close up.. like I said, nothin complicated :)
I really hope you like it and that I inspired you to make your own 'stress' page!
Check out SODA's blog to see the challenge :)

Pair busted for swiping UPS packages off peoples front steps
Aaron Sandeen of Aloha and Bell Anderson of Hillsboro were arrested Wednesday, Dec. 14
Two people were arrested last week for allegedly stealing Christmas presents from the doorsteps of homes throughout Washington County.
Aaron Sandeen, 26, of Aloha and Bell Anderson, 25, of Hillsboro were arrested Wednesday, Dec. 14. Deputies believe Anderson and Sandeen were following UPS, Fed Ex and postal trucks and stealing packages from homes in Tigard, Bethany, Cedar Mill and Hillsboro, said Sgt. David Thompson, a spokesman with the Washington County Sheriff's Office.
Washington County Sheriff's deputies were called to the community of Cedar Mill at about 3:25 p.m. on Dec. 14, near Northwest Thompson Road and Saltzman Road, after neighbors reported witnessing the thefts.
Deputies were given a detailed description of the two thieves, as well as their vehicle, and searched for half an hour before finding Anderson, Sandeen in a silver Jeep Liberty, said Sgt. Vance Stimler, a spokesman with the Washington County Sheriff's Office.
In addition to matching witness descriptions, Stimler said packages similar to ones taken from the houses were found in the vehicle.
Hillsboro police officers were already investigating Anderson and Sandeen for a string of package thefts, Stimler said.
Hillsboro Police detectives searched the Jeep and Anderson's home and say they found a total of 50 boxes that had been shipped through the Post Office, UPS and FedEx to homes across Washington County.
So far, police say the boxes are believed to be worth at least $1,000 of stolen property, but that number is likely to increase as detectives continue to sort through the property, Hillsboro police said in a statement.
Anderson and Sandeen were charged with multiple counts of theft.
Both Sandeen and Anderson are lodged in the Washington County Jail.
'The problem of package theft is a year-round problem. However, during the holidays, this crime increases dramatically,' Thompson said in a statement. 'Deputies want to remind people not to have packages left on their front porch. Make sure someone signs for the package or pick it up from the delivering companies distribution center.'
If you believe you are a victim of a similar theft, call 503-681-6175.

Hello Everyone,
It's a very common practice for System administrators to disconnect the active session and reconnect it using 'mstsc' command. By doing this, many sessions can get activated in the background. It happens especially when there are couple of administrators for single server.
If you attempted to perform SEPM upgrade when another Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager(SEPM) session is running in the background, you may get the following error message:
"The installation cannot finish because it detected that one or more SEPM apps were running"
Even can get following error message "To install the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager from a remote desktop connection, the remote desktop connection must be session 0. You are currently running a differernt session. You can change you current session to session 0".
Check the screenshot for more details
All the active sessions will be disconnected once the System reboots. But, it is not a practical solution when you use a critical server.
A better solution is to logoff that session.
Check this screenshot for your` reference.
You should connect to the '0' session to continue with the upgrade process.
1) To connect '0' session, start the Task Manager and select the Users tab.The 'Users' tab shows all the active connections. The following screenshot shows two active sessions listed with the Server:
In the 'Users' tab all the active connections will be listed.
Right-click on ID-0 and select Connect. It will connect to particular session.
3) Right-click on the other session & select Log Off. You can thus close the active sessions one by one.
Sometimes, the session 0 may not be available. In that case, you need to initiate a new session:
- Click the Start button and then click Run.
- Type the following and click OK.
mstsc /admin
This should take you to the 0 session.
Please note that in Windows Server 2003, you can start the RDC client (Mstsc.exe) by using the /console or /admin switch to remotely connect to the physical console session on the server (also known as session ID=0). However, in Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2008 R2, the /console switch has been deprecated. In Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, session 0 is a non-interactive session that is reserved for services.
For more information, please visit the following Microsoft article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947723
Screenshot for the reference:
You can use the new /admin switch to remotely connect to a Windows Server 2008-based server for administrative purposes. The /admin switch is introduced in RDC 6.1 so included in the following operating systems:
- Windows Server 2008
- Windows Server 2008 R2
- Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1)
- Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3)
Also can verify sesion 0 using command prompt.
To ensure that you are on the console (Session ID=0) of the server, please run the command "query session" from a Command Prompt.
If you get an error message like "Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager upgrade rolls back: "SESM CA: files still locked...sleeping 1 second"
Refer the steps suggested above or you can go through the following Symantec KB article.
I hope it's informative.

The eVGA GeForce 7950 GX2 is a well-executed idea that bodes well for gamers who want a decent dual-graphics setup but have come up against problems like the wrong motherboard, a less-than-adequate power supply, a lack of space, and numerous other bumps. The GX2 offers SLI performance on a single slot and is able to handle future copy protected HD-DVD or Blu-ray content with the embedded HDCP crypto ROM.

Pregame notes: Nunez anxious to get back
Eduardo Nunez looked like a man ready to hit. He was standing at his locker with a bat in his hand, but that's as close as he'll get to batting practice. He joked that he keeps his bat with him just so the bat will know he still loves it and hasn't abandoned it.
"I want to play," Nunez said. "I'm excited to play. I want to show I'm ready to go, (but) I don't want to rush anything. I don't want to play two, three games and go back again to the DL."
Nunez's sore right hand feels better than it did six days ago, but it's still tender. He tried to take batting practice yesterday and had to shut it down. Nunez said a doctor is coming to the field to re-examine him today, but tests have already shown nothing serious. He was hit by a pitch on Monday, and it's just taking longer than expected for the soreness to go away.
"That's weird because everything says negative," Nunez said. "The doctors say I'm fine, but it still hurts a lot, and the doctor is coming back today to see me… It feels better, but it's coming slow."
Nunez admitted feeling a little bit worried, but mostly he just seems anxious. He worked out a lot this winter with Robinson Cano and Albert Pujols. He looks stronger, said he feels faster, and he wants to show that he's a better player than he was a year ago. Right now, though, he's just waiting. And keeping his bat company.
• Pretty thin clubhouse today. The guys who are traveling to Fort Myers were already gone by the time the clubhouse opened. Joe Girardi is making the trip and Tony Pena will manage the game at home.
• Dave Robertson walked into the clubhouse with no crutches this morning. His right foot is still in a walking boot, but he was moving pretty easily. This is supposed to be his last day in the boot.
• George Kontos threw another bullpen today and threw a few pitches with Larry Rothschild standing in the batters box like a hitter. Kontos will throw batting practice on Tuesday and could get into a game after that. He's been out with an oblique injury.
• Today's other sides: Manny Banuelos, D.J. Mitchell and Freddy Garcia.
• Tomorrow's sides: Brad Meyers, Matt Daley, Joba Chamberlain, Brett Marshall and David Phelps.
• J.R. Murphy will play third base off the bench in the road game against the Twins. He's played that position in the past but this will be his first time in big league camp. With Jose Gil playing first base in the home game and Gary Sanchez DHing in the road game, a total of seven Yankees catchers will play in some capacity today. That's not counting Ryan Baker and Jeff Farnham, a pair of minor league catchers called up to help catch bullpens today.
• Several minor league guys were called up to play off the bench today. Most of them went on the road to play against the Twins.
vs. Phillies
• Available pitchers: CC Sabathia, Mariano Rivera, Cory Wade, Boone Logan, Clay Rapada, Chase Whitley, Kevin Whelan, Michael O'Connor and Craig Heyer.
• Second string: C Gustavo Molina, 1B Jose Gil, 2B David Adams, SS Doug Bernier, 3B Kevin Russo, LF Cole Garner, CF Justin Maxwell, RF Austin Krum, DH Colin Curtis
• Extra players on the bench: C Mitch Abeita, UT Addison Maruszak, UT Ronnier Mustelier, OF Abe Almonte
at Twins
• Available pitchers: Phil Hughes, Adam Warren, Graham Stoneburner, Adam Miller, Juan Cedeno, Cesar Cabral, Ryan Pope, Josh Romanski and Ryan Flannery
• Second string: C. Kyle Higashioka, 1B Luke Murton, 2B Corban Joseph, SS Walter Ibarra, 3B J.R. Murphy, LF Zoilo Almonte, CF Melky Mesa, RF Ray Kruml, DH Gary Sanchez
• Extra players off the bench: INF Jose Pirela and OF Dan Brewer. The Yankees aren't carrying any additional catchers on the road, but Higashioka, Murphy and Sanchez give them plenty of depth there for the day.

Comox Valley Airport café launchces YANA fundraiser Tuesday
Addison Hargreaves was born almost four months premature weighing only two pounds and almost 14 ounces.
And she and her family had quite the journey.
Addison was born Jan. 21 at 27 weeks and six days, far from home at B.C. Women's Hospital in Vancouver.
"At 20 weeks, I got a weird feeling this pregnancy wasn't the same as Mackenzie's," said her mother Carlea Hirmer, who also has a five-year-old daughter, Mackenzie.
Hirmer was 20 centimetres dilated at 20 weeks, and she had to have a cerclage to stitch her cervix shut.
The cerclage didn't work, so she had to have another one, and then she had another cerclage at 23 weeks and four days.
One day at 26 weeks, Hirmer was laying on her couch when she sneezed and started hemorrhaging. She and her husband, Jody Hargreaves, rushed to St. Joseph's.
Hirmer was flown to Vancouver, and she was placed on strict bed rest at B.C. Women's Hospital in Vancouver.
She spent one week on bed rest. One night, Hirmer started bleeding everywhere. She went down to labour and delivery, and they gave her pills to stop labour for two days.
Six hours after the last pill, Hirmer's bleeding started again. Doctors pulled Hirmer's cerclage out, and labour began.
Addison's heartbeat never went below 166, and doctors were worried she had an infection.
Hirmer was induced at 10:59 p.m. Jan. 21, and Addison was born weighing 1,300 grams or two pounds and almost 14 ounces and measuring 15 inches long.
"Her skin was so thin," said Hirmer. "She's such a little miracle. Most babies born at her gestation need CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) or intubation. She was on CPAP for two and a half days. She's still shocking all her doctors."
Hargreaves was back and forth a lot, as they have Mackenzie, and they live on a farm, so he needed to take care of the animals.
While in Vancouver, the family was able to stay at one of four You Are Not Alone (YANA) apartments.
"It was an awesome apartment, like home," said Hirmer. "The beds are so comfortable. There's everything you need there. It's perfect. If it wasn't for their apartment, there's no way I could stay there."
After two weeks at B.C. Women's Hospital, Addison was stable enough to go to Victoria General Hospital.
One day, the doctors at B.C. Women's Hospital told Hirmer she wouldn't move unless it was Nanaimo, but two days later, she was told to go to Victoria, and Addison would meet her there after being flown by ITT.
The family caught the last ferry, arriving in Victoria at 11 p.m. Addison wasn't at the hospital.
Hirmer was told Addison was never going to be moved because ITT wasn't available. The charge nurse at Victoria General Hospital phoned B.C. Women's Hospital and dealt with it, but they had to spend the night without Addison.
Addison was transported to Victoria the next day, and they spent two weeks at Victoria General Hospital because Nanaimo Regional General Hospital wouldn't take Addison until she was 36 weeks.
There are no YANA apartments in Victoria, so Hirmer phoned Anita Brassard, YANA's executive director, in tears and told her their situation. Brassard told Hirmer to stay in a hotel and put it on her credit card and that YANA would reimburse them.
Addison was moved to the Nanaimo Regional General Hospital.
Hirmer and Mackenzie were able to stay with Hirmer's parents in Parksville.
Addison spent five weeks in the hospital in Nanaimo.
They finally came home March 24 after spending time in three hospitals in three different cities.
"Every time they moved her, it was a week's setback because it stressed her out," said Hirmer. "I never want to go to another hospital."
Addison now weighs 10 pounds and 11 ounces and is gaining at the normal rate of a term newborn.
"To look at her, you'd never know she was premature four months," said Hirmer. "Before she was even supposed to be here, it was a lot."
Inspired by Addison's story, Andrea Wagemaker and Jackie Blocka, who own On The Fly Café in the Comox Valley Airport, have created a Love Your Mug fundraiser for YANA.
On The Fly Café will be launching the YANA Love Your Mug reusable mugs June 14 at 2 p.m. at the Comox Valley Airport.
During the celebration, there will be entertainment, and people can spin to win prizes and enter a draw for a barbecue.
For $16, customers can purchase a YANA Love Your Mug reusable mug, and $5 from each purchase will go to YANA.
"Our goal on this day is to promote YANA, first and foremost, and also raise money for YANA because they don't get outside funding," said Wagemaker. "It's 100 per cent community. Jackie and I being part of the community, it's a way to give back and participate."
People who buy a mug will receive a free cup of coffee or tea, and they will save 25 cents off coffee when they bring their mug back.
People can also purchase the café's exclusive YANA Jet Fuel Coffee for $12 a bag. Two dollars from each bag of this fair-trade, organic coffee by Creekmore's Coffee, goes to YANA.
Brassard is very thankful for Blocka and Wagemaker's efforts.
"They put tons of heart and soul into this," she said. "That's how we exist."

For line decisions: Run outs, No balls, and iffy catches fine....But lets give the umpires the authority they deserve. Its not, in my opinion made the game better. It's always been a great game and needs little tinkering. Remember the subs.........?
For line decisions: Run outs, No balls, and iffy catches fine....But lets give the umpires the authority they deserve. Its not, in my opinion made the game better. It's always been a great game and needs little tinkering. Remember the subs.........?
The "something is better than nothing" attitude is what's breeding complacency and preventing the implementation of a proper system that doesn't shift the blame from the umpires to the players.
Athlai doesn't lie. And he doesn't do sarcasm either, so you know it's true!
'You will look very silly said Mr Salteena with a dry laugh.
Well so will you said Ethel in a snappy tone and she ran out of the room with a very superier run throwing out her legs behind and her arms swinging in rithum.
Well said the owner of the house she has a most idiotick run.'
Yeah but being realistic is what is going to let us eventually achieve that. If they are smart enough to introduce 2 new balls to ODIs/introduce powerplays/invent T20s in 10 years time, they are eventually going to make changes to the current system as well. Getting too pissed off at it is useless. Just lay back and later say I told you so.
agree with Shri, something(even if it isnt perfect) is always better than nothing otherwise we would be using slates and candles for this forum!! DRS has definately helped the game imho...
"Play Hard but play fair..."
Whenever people spout this rubbish I always ask this question and it never gets a satisfactory answer.
When a player is given out caught behind, when he knows fine well he hasn't hit it (best example that comes to mind off the top of my head is Alistair Cook being given out at Adelaide in 2010 when he was hit on the shoulder by a bouncer from Siddle), who the **** should make the decision to review if not the player?
If it's an LBW, let the guys in the dressing room (if not the umpires) view the replay and signal to the player if they think it's worthy of a review. Saves a wasted review.
If it's a nick, let the guys in the dressing room view the replay and signal to the player if they think it's worthy of a review. If the player knows that it's a detectable miss on review, let him go ahead with asking for the review anyway.
Worst idea ever.
I'll elaborate. The umpires get the vast, vast majority of their decisions correct. Your proposal completely undermines them and you might as well just do away with them altogether if we're just going to wait for a signal from the dressing room as soon as the coach has worked out whether the umpire got it right.
Other than the limitations of the technology, I really don't get what the objection is to the DRS system provided the umpires aren't complete morons (stand up Dharmasena.)

If you enjoy wasted reviews, then yes, it certainly is.
If batsmen or fielding captains want to burn reviews on speculative/desperation punts then that's their problem.
The game's bad enough with umpires absolutely refusing to make any sort of line call on run outs or stumpings without going upstairs to the 3rd umpire (seriously, when was the last time an on field umpire gave a run out or stumping that wasn't so blatantly out that Stevie Wonder would have given it) and we're already seeing umpires getting lazy with front foot no-balls (again, step up Kumar "useless ****" Dharmasena). Give the umpires control of the review system and we're as well just not having them make any on field decisions at all, they'd just be smartly dressed hat holders.

They are eventually going to not be there in a few decades when the tech will be doing a better job than them. Might as well get them used to it.
The way to reduce speculative punts is to involve in the decision to review the people who have access to information that reduces the speculative component as much as is possible, whether they be people seated in front of the telly in the dressing room or umpires upstairs. To deny players this benefit and then to blame them for wasted reviews is either stupidity or perversity.
The limitations of the technology + the 3rd umpires lack of power to use common sense in interpreting it is what's wrong with DRS.
I actually feel sorry for the 3rd umps in some respects, they have got no mandate at all to use their brain, they need to have 100% evidence to overturn a decision.....99.8 is not good enough. Some of the worst DRS decisions returned are because the 3rd umps hands are tied, and yet these buggers cop all the crap.
Last edited by Adders; 06-03-2014 at 11:22 PM.
I do think something is better than nothing BUT it is an attitude that can leave us to accept what we've got when we could have something better
DRS is better than no DRS for me but it is clearly flawed and needs to be improved
A good start would be to do what rugby does and actually let us listen to the communication between the umpires and the third ump. That way we can actually tell what the protocol for overturning decisions is, when it's being applied correctly or incorrectly, and how it can be improved.
do you think people will be allowed to make violins?
who's going to make the violins?

Ben's a problem child But if this is the start of a battle coach against Ben, this time Ben's probably going to win, because the record doesn't speak for Skiles and Ben's contract is too big to let his play depend on a damn headband. Besides, Ben needs his bands everywhere on his body just like Samson needs his hair.
Yeah! Now correct me if I am wrong but didn't Ben put up a 48 minute 15 rebound game in the last week? I think it's a little early to be calling him a bust for the rest of his career. I'll have to make a point of avoiding ESPN for the next week or so as I'm sure the Ben Headband Scandal will open all SportsCenter segments.
Wow. It took what, 13-14 games for Ben and Skiles to butt heads. I wouldn`t say this is a major issue, however, the media, and/or Skiles and Ben could very well make it one. I don`t see Skiles winning this battle if it escalates. If Ben pursues wearing his headband (which I don`t think he will) things could get ugly in Chi-Town. Next thing you know the Bulls will have a rule against braids.......
HeadbandGate is the last things the Bulls need going into their long home stand in the next few weeks. Yes, it's a lame rule, but Ben is acting like a little kid here, by forcing the issue into the public spotlight and hoping that the coach backs down. Even Johnny Damon shed his caveman look without complaining when he joined the Yankees. If you're going to join a team of your own free will and accept $60 million from them, then how hard is it to follow a rule about headbands? It's not like Ben didn't know about the rule until last night or anything.
I wouldn't be so sure about Skiles coming under any pressure to back down. Ben's record in Detroit is obviously great, but what's he done in Chicago? So far, nothing. Skiles, not Ben, is the one who's gotten them back to the playoffs for the first time in the post-Jordan era. I'm not that familiar with the media and fan sentiment in Chicago right now, but it's an awfully big stretch for me to think that people there are going to be siding with Ben over Skiles. Hasn't Ben already been getting more blame for their bad start than Skiles? Skiles has proven that he can win in Chicago, but Ben hasn't.
Good point D4E. Skiles and Ben need each other to win in Chi-Town. If this thing isn`t squashed quickly one of them would have to back down. Obviously, Skiles had this rule in effect before Ben. Now, Skiles knew with Ben`s hairstyle that sometimes he sports the headband. Did Skiles say, "hey Ben, you know you can`t wear a headband right?" I don`t think so. Ben has a lot of pressure on him in Chicago, unlike anything he experienced in Detroit. He went to Chicago because he liked Skiles, so he says. It will be interesting to see when their relationship hits the skids. This may be the issue that makes it happen. I knew it would happen, just not so soon.............
I don't think this is an issue that's going to drive a wedge between Ben and Skiles--it seems more like the wedge already exists, and this is an attempt by Ben to push back in public. Of course Ben had to know about the headband thing when he signed with the Bulls; how could he not? And this is their 13th game of the season--why is HeadbandGate only starting up now? Is it merely a coincidence that Ben played only 20 minutes the night before and got publicly called out by Skiles for not hitting the boards well enough? Sure doesn't seem likely to me. The headband thing is how Ben has chosen to up the ante in public. It's not the thing that's going to cause friction between him and Skiles--it's a sign that some pretty bad friction is already there. But as I've said elsewhere as well, I think we should wait and check back in a few weeks to see if the Bulls are righting the ship. They've just ended a 7-game road trip, and now they have 8 of the next 9 at home. If they win most of those games, they'll be in better shape. Though they will have to go at least 7-2 in those 9 games just to get back to .500.
The Bulls are always off to bad starts so I'm not making too much of it. Everyone expected that Ben would change that, but it doesn't look that way. It's better for the Bulls to experience this struggle early, our Pistons were doing great but the problems started happening at the worst time..late in the season.
This is gonna be a long ugly relationship in Chicago... the fans will always be resentful of what they could have done with that contract. Ben will be by himself collecting paychecks and loathing his stay... just wait til the fans start getting on him... he could go into a deep funk. I wonder what the Spurs offered in a S&T (one of the teams interested)? The Bulls do have a lot of talent and could be a good playoff team despite Ben slowing down (he looks like the slowest guy on their squad) In this case money may have bought unhappiness.
Surprisingly, this is what McCoskey had to say in his blog post that's time-stamped yesterday afternoon--i.e., BEFORE HeadbandGate erupted last night:
looks like the malcontent is up to his old tricks. the locker room cancer is once again fighting with a coach. now i see why it's hard to win a championship with this type of guy on your roster. he's like a big spoiled brat that has to have his way or he will turn on the coach and on the team. i can't wait until he get booed in chicago he will probably take a buyout. he can't handle it if the crowd turned on him. detroit fans always loved him but chicago fans have no history with him. he's just thier 60 million dollar malcontent paper weight.
I would protest to the players association if I was Ben. If headbands are not against league rules then it is just a preference of Skiles that they not be worn. Besides for the money the league charges for those headbands to sell to little kids I bet they would put an end to Skiles stupid rule.
D4E friction from what? I don`t think there was any friction before this incident, unless it came from Ben being told after he signed the contract that he couldn`t wear his headband. Like a headband would stand in the way of 60 mil! But it`s the principle of the thing if it happened like was stated in the blog. If that`s true, the friction could have started there. Let`s face it, if you are paying someone that kind of money, his opinions and needs are usually listened to and met. It`s really a stupid rule, and I will go as far as to say, don`t be surpised if it`s changed to give in to Ben.
Actually I can understand the headband thing. Many athletes have certain pre-game/game rituals that they are comfortable with. After the worst game of his post-star career that headband was going back on. With the Pistons he could start a game wearing a pair of red shades and no one cared. Different club. Every year there is a circus in Chicago that takes over their stadium which puts them on an early long road trip each year. They have only played 3 home games and 10 road games. They were hoping it would be different this time with Ben. The Fans know what a championship season feels like and that you are supposed to win most games on the road and not let that circus trip put you in a hole. It happened. They came back last year and are better this year. Just kind of failed the 1st test.
didn't know about that circus thing. must be some circus to disrupt an NBA team every season. do they have ponies?
I can't beleive people are defending Ben on this. A lot of teams have quirky rules, the Knicks were forcing their players to wear suits way before Stern. The Yankees don't allow beards, Matt Damon and Randy Johnson had no problems shaving when they signed for millions. How childish is a thirty something old man sneaking a headband into a game? Just lost all respect for Ben.
Yo Aurorakmw, "Cease and desist with the campaign to character assassinate Big Ben and his legacy." That really isn't the original point of the post. The point is whether a mixture of rash emotion and new agent (Arn Tellem) pushed the Big guy into grey water. His legacy with the Pistons, the team built around his skills, was unique. But his overall NBA legacy is yet to be fully defined. Finding your way into the HOF is tough enough for very good fundamentally sound players. Finding your way in today with a career scoring average under 10 points per game is unheard of (6.6). His defensive prowess was his potential ticket and the Pistons roster was the glue in that they knew and played to his tendencies. Had they won multiple titles with him playing dominantly in the center it might've helped push him and his games impact closer to the edge. Leaving Detroit for a team will not win a championship, (and this Chicago team will not win a championship) was a move made in anger rather than ration and it could come with a very large price tag in reference to his NBA legacy. That's not being dismissive of Wallaces achievements in Detroit, but it is being realistic about his perceived impact on the game long-term. When you search through the HOF for players enshrined specifically due to their defensive games, you won't find many. There are guys in the HOF that came from the "low scoring era" (LSE) but todays players will be judged by their playing and impact against contemporaries not against dusty old flat-footed ghosts.

Polar vortex-related good news: Being cold can help you lose weight, says study

Regular exposure to cooler temperatures can help a person lose weight, a new study has found.
Researchers at the Maastricht University Medical Center in the Netherlands said most offices are kept warm so workers aren't uncomfortable. But they found after being exposed to 17 C for up to six hours a day for six weeks, the study participants got used to the cooler temperatures.
Their comfort levels increased, they had more brown fat which burns energy instead of storing it, and they shivered less at 15 C. Non-shivering heat production can account for up to 30% of the body's energy budget, the study found.
"By lack of exposure to a varied ambient temperature, whole populations may be prone to develop diseases like obesity," the authors wrote in the study, which was published in the Cell Press publication Trends in Endocrinology and Metabolism.

Hi A,Yes, Strauss / Strauß is exclusivly used as a surname (at least in Germany).
It derives from the Middle High German word "struz" which has got three different meanings:
1) "Ostrich", which refers to an ostrich feather at a person's helmet or to a person's beautiful eyes.
2) "Opposition, conflict, combat", which refers to an aggressive person.
3) "Shrub, bush", which refers to the place where the person lived.
In modern High German "Strauß" means "ostrich" (and "bouquet", but this hasn't got anything to do with the surname).

Sample Paragraph with Counterclaim.JPG - Section 4: Using Counterclaims to Strengthen an Argument
Cornerstone Defending Literary Arguments
Lesson 11 of 21
Objective: Students will be able to form literary arguments by citing evidence supporting claims with commentary in discussion and written arguments.
Daily Grammar
There isn't any dialogue today, but we did review how one uses punctuation with introductory clauses and compound sentences as well as homonyms, hyphens, and apostrophes in possessives and contractions.

Yesterday, we had a brief discussion about which character would have the best advantage going into the games based on Chapters 1 through 11, but focusing on Chapters 7 through 10. We considered the major tributes like Foxface, Rue, Katniss, Peeta, Thresh, and the Career Tributes. Today, students were given one of four characters--Katniss, Peeta, Rue or the Career Tributes (pick your own). It was pretty much random, but if I knew a student needed or wanted an extra challenge, I gave them Peeta or Rue. I also did my best to give one group all four different characters. No student was given Thresh because that's the character I used for my own modeling.
Once students had their assigned character, I gave students seven minutes to read through the list of evidence for their character and rate the pieces of evidence. Of course, we used the check plus, check minus, check system. This was done individually.
Resources (4)
Debating the Evidence
Once students had evaluated the evidence independently, I asked students to relocate and sit with two or three other students who had their same character. I placed 'tents' with the characters' names so it students wouldn't waste time with "Where's Katniss? Where's Peeta? Where's Rueeeeeeeeeee?"
The students' task for these groups was to defend the evidence they'd selected in a discussion. Yes, they're defending the evidence, but I made it clear that they could change their minds at any time. The goal was to get the best evidence, not simply prove their point. If those two things collided, fine. If not, fine.

The next step, of course, is to respond in writing. Nobody saw that coming, right? For this assignment, students wrote a paragraph that I used as a formative assessment. I chose formative, not summative, because this is one of the first times students have worked with debate and arguments. They've certainly written topic sentences for informative and literary analysis paragraphs, but not argumentative. We're also adding in a component--the counterclaim.
The what? First, here's your argument reference sheet. A counterclaim is when a writer presents the other side's evidence and says why it's in correct. You might think that it makes your argument weaker, but it actually makes it stronger. Presenting counterclaims suggests that you have considered all sides of issue, have chosen the strongest side, and have the evidence and commentary to justify your claim.
Now let's consider two different arguments. The two paragraphs below are about the same topic. Which one is strongest? (Here's a Word document with both of these paragraphs).
It might seem counter-intuitive, but the pink paragraph is strongest. What makes it strongest? It's not because it's longer and has more detail or explanation. Not really. It's the presence of a counterclaim. I specifically chose to write about a minor character that not much is know about--Thresh. I claimed that he had the advantage going into the arena, even though most people wouldn't even think of him. He's not mentioned very much, and most readers are focusing on the Career Tributes and Katniss. Those are the characters that are more likely to have the advantage. So if I want to convince others that I'm right, that Thresh has the advantage, then I need to confront the other side head-on. I need to explain why the Career Tributes don't have the advantage even though it seems as though they would. The presence of my counterclaim actually makes my position stronger because I've made my opposition weaker.

London – Tyson Gay and Asafa Powell will step up their preparations for the Olympics with a showdown at the London Grand Prix Diamond League meeting later this month, it was confirmed Tuesday.
The second and third fastest men of all time will take to the track at Crystal Palace on July 13-14 less than one month before a potential meeting in the 100m final at the Olympics.
American star Gay won the US trials last week in a respectable 9.86 seconds, while Powell, the former world record holder finished third behind Yohan Blake and Usain Bolt in the Jamaican trials.
While Blake and Bolt look to be in a league of their own Ä
clocking 9.75secs and 9.76secs this year Ä Gay and Powell are determined to lay down markers of their own in London.
"I haven't raced much this year and I'm feeling better each time out there on the track," said Gay.
"My body is getting closer to where I want it to be. I've shown over the years that through all of the injuries, I'm a fighter, and I hope to be fighting for that Olympic gold in London later this summer."
Powell, 29, added: "This is a big year for me. I'm not getting any younger but there's a lot more to come from me. I've learned a lot from past major championships. I don't take anything for granted and I'm working as hard as ever. I know that I'm capable of running 9.8, 9.7, 9.6, so all that I'm focusing on is myself.
"I'm looking forward to taking on Tyson. It's good to have him back and it's going to make for a very competitive Olympic Games."– Sapa-AFP

"Dr Sadler, I don't understand why I have been tired all the time!" Sherry (not her real name) had no recent change in medications, weight, blood pressure or pulse. Her labs were all normal and the physical exam was completely unremarkable. She is only 60 years old and she has controlled diabetes, hypertension and headaches.
Wait a minute, what about changes in medication?
A full review of medications did not expose any recent changes in therapy. This IS a mystery.
Wait a minute…"Have you looked at your pills lately?" I asked. "Do they look the same or has the pharmacy perhaps changed manufacturers of the generic medications?"
Sherry: "Well yes, Dr. Sadler, my amitryptaline tablet is now blue. That change occurred in November."
Ok, now I am all over it. "Sherry, I think the problem may be in the new mix of the generic tablet. As your headaches are controlled, let's hold the amitryptaline for now and determine if your energy level improves in the next few weeks." I bet that will fix her problem. But, we I will examine her and check some additional lab tests just in case there is another reason for her new onset fatigue.
While changes in generic manufacturing rarely seem to affect patient care, there are noticeable differences in some medications that have been reported in the literature. Medications such as some generic forms of WellbutrinXL, Lipitor and ToprolXL have been pulled off the market due to inconsistencies in achieving therapeutic responses or dose-equivalent levels in the blood as the name brand medications.
The American Academy of Neurology, for example "opposes generic substitution of anticonvulsant drugs for the treatment of epilepsy" without the physician's approval. But the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and the AMA (American Medical Association) supports the use of generic medications.
The bottom line is that generic medications are absolutely fine in most circumstances; however, changes in manufacturing may result in differences in patient response to the medication. There is no danger in obtaining a generic medication over a name-brand alternative. But, if you notice changes in your physical or emotional health with a change in drug manufacturing (the pill will probably have changed in appearance), then alert your doctor and your pharmacist.
Bust of the Week: Firewheel 18 AMC Theatres 8:10 showing of "Warm Bodies" rated PG-13. Previews were for showing for "all audiences". To everyone's surprise, one preview came up for "mature audiences only". Taken by surprise, the preview played before parents could react. It was for the upcoming Sandra Bullock police movie. The "F-bombs" (and worse) began flying immediately and did not stop until the end of the preview. Quick-reacting parents sent their children out of the theatre while others sat stunned in disbelief. I want to know why this preview was allowed. My hope is that this experience was a mistake and not another example of the entertainment industry pushing the envelope of indecency.

I found a swollen lymp node on the left side of my throat. I had a biopsy and it had a lot of necrotic tissue. What does this mean?
Necrotic tissue means the biopsy shows dead cells and debris but does not give an accurate diagnosis. Both infection/inflammation and cancer related problems can lead to necrosis therefore additional tests or tissue needs to be obtained.

Only after President's speech did East Midlands security officials reverse earlier announcement that suspicious device was a dud
Paul Joseph Watson
Prison Planet.com
Monday, November 1, 2010
After having examined the suspicious ink toner device for six hours and found it to be a dud, bomb experts at East Midlands Airport only reversed their decision after being ordered to re-inspect the package by US authorities following President Obama's Friday afternoon speech in which he claimed that the devices did in fact contain explosives.
This telling contradiction in the timeline of the cargo bomb plot fiasco proves that the story was being hyped and manipulated from the very early stages.
Obama was informed of the plot at 10:35PM eastern Thursday night, despite the fact that the East Midlands package was only first discovered roughly at the exact same time – 3:30am on Friday morning UK time. British Prime Minister David Cameron was kept firmly out of the loop – he was not informed until Friday afternoon.
How did Obama and his terror chief John Brennan know that the East Midlands package was an explosive device virtually at the same time bomb experts had only just discovered the device at East Midlands Airport and before they had even had the chance to analyze it?
A spokesman from the Metropolitan Police stated: "Following initial examination explosives officers were satisfied that the package presented no immediate danger."
Authorities at East Midlands only reversed their earlier assessment after "(US) authorities urged the British to look again, a US official said," reports the Nottingham Post.
So is it credible that bomb professionals whose expertise and training is focused around detecting explosives, failed to do so after a six hour sweep, only to change their minds after being ordered to look again by the US government?
What did Obama know and when did he know it? The timeline strongly indicates that US terror authorities knew about the East Midlands device before East Midlands bomb experts had even discovered it.
Police and bomb experts at East Midlands have refused to comment on the confusion.
Having A Supply Of Healthy Foods That Last Just Makes Sense (AD)
In addition, it has come to light that the man responsible for tipping off Saudi authorities to the imminent plot, who subsequently informed US authorities, was Jabir al-Fayf, suspected by Yemen of being a double agent working for the Saudis.
Al-Fayf had infiltrated the Al-Qaeda group in Yemen who were behind the plot. Going on past evidence of how almost every terror scare was contrived with the aid of federal agents or their Al-Qaeda informants provocateuring the terror group into action, Al-Fayf was probably responsible for grooming the patsies, whose mental incompetence, as again is the case in most instances, prevented them from building sophisticated enough bombs to be successful.
However, despite the fact that authorities not only in the UK but also in the cases of the Newark and Pittsburgh packages, initially gave the "all clear," according to CNN, Obama, having already been informed of the plot the night before, simply contradicted the very experts who had dismissed the devices as duds, claiming the packages contained explosives. This soon mushroomed into a media scaremongering blitz about powerful explosives that could have knocked dozens of planes out of the sky.
The contrived series of events has been swiftly exploited as a means of intensifying US attacks on Yemen, which was instantly blamed as the source of the alleged attack, despite a female student who was arrested as the prime culprit later being released after it became clear she was the victim of a "set-up," according to her lawyer.
Two Wall Street Journal articles today make it plain that the Obama administration will use the incident to justify further military incursions into Yemen while beefing the CIA's power to control secret "elite U.S. hunter-killer teams" that operate in foreign countries.
In a report entitled Package Bombs Help U.S. Defense in Cleric Case, the WSJ discusses how the alleged role of American cleric Anwar al Awlaki in the plot, who as we have documented is a CIA stooge who met with Pentagon officials shortly after 9/11 despite being fingered as the spiritual guru of the very hijackers who slammed Flight 77 into the Pentagon, will aid the US in its plans to launch military operations in Yemen.
In another report entitled Yemen Covert Role Pushed – Foiled Bomb Plot Heightens Talk of Putting Elite U.S. Squads in CIA Hands, Julian E. Barnes and Adam Entous explain how the plot – supposedly masterminded by someone on the CIA payroll – will enable the Obama administration to shift "more operational control to the CIA" in its mission to violate the sovereignty of more nations in the name of the war on terror.

Long-awaited National policy on HIV/AIDS to be launched today
A National Policy on HIV and AIDS to be formally launched today by the Ministry of Labour and Social Security (MLSS), will address, among other key issues, the hot button topic of HIV and AIDS within the workplace.
The launch ceremony will take place at the Jamaica Pegasus Hotel in New Kingston, commencing at 6:30 pm.
Director of the ministry's Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) unit, Robert Chung said the policy, which is currently in effect, is a regulation under the proposed Occupational, Safety and Health Act, which is being implemented by the MLSS to address health and safety concerns in the workplace.
The policy was formulated through tripartite discussion (government, employers and workers) to establish an appropriate framework to address HIV/AIDS in the workplace, guided by the International Labour Organisation's (ILO) 10-point Code of Practice on HIV/AIDS, Chung said.
"This Code deals specifically with HIV/AIDS in the world of work, and includes some key principles such as recognition of HIV/AIDS as a workplace issue, non-discrimination, gender equality, prevention, care and support, social dialogue, a healthy work environment, as well as screening and confidentiality," said Chung.
The OSH director noted that every workplace would be required to have the policy in place, and that it would be made available free of cost to both the private and public sectors islandwide.
"From the launch, we are expecting adherence as it relates to the requirements of the policy. What we are promoting is effective social inclusion, so there will be no room for stigma and discrimination. It not only prevents affected employees from being fired because they have HIV/AIDS, but it outlines how employers should treat persons living with HIV/AIDS within the workplace," he added.
Chung pointed out that currently, there was no law covering penalty for persons not adhering to the policy. However, the new OSH Act, that is to be tabled in Parliament by year end, would carry substantial penalties for persons found to be in breach of the Act.
"The message that we are trying to send to both employers and employees is that persons who are affected by HIV and AIDS, should not be discriminated against, because of their status," Chung said.
