Welcome to the University of Tennessee Chapter of the Collegiate Entrepreneurs' Organization. We are an on-campus student organization that strives to encourage the entrepreneurial spirit at UT.
This is a very exciting time at CEO. We plan to bring all of the colleges at the university closer together by establishing a close community of entrepreneurs. One way that we plan to do this is by hosting social events that would allow these entrepreneurs to forge relationships with one another and simultaneously build a lasting network that will be a priceless resource as they become the business leaders of the future. This community of likeminded leaders is the atmosphere that we continually strive to accomplish at CEO. If you are interested in helping us accomplish our vision for growing the University of Tennessee's entrepreneurial community, then we look forward to discussing with you more ideas about the exciting semester ahead.

It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's a meteor. Residents/visitors of the Reno-Sparks near Lake Tahoe were startled when what felt like an earthquake rattled through the Sierras early this morning. However, instead of expecting a shaker, they were shocked to discover that a meteor had actually crashed down to earth.

Used Large Carbon/Epoxy Syndrome Skimboard w/ SkimCity bag. The bag is a bit beat up (hey, it's a bag) but the board is in great shape. There are a few pressure dents on top, the signature Syndrome Carbon fiber show-thru at the nose and tail, and normal minor wear on the rails, none of which effect the ride or durability of the board. As you can see, the pads, however, are looking a bit ghetto. You can replace the stomp pad if you want but I suggest leaving it and just adding a few inches of wax.
As for the board, it's a beast. Check out www.skimsyndrome.com if you're not familiar with their boards. They make lightning fast, super thin (5/8"), ultra-light (carbon/epoxy) boards that hold a mean line yet turn on a dime.
I'm in SF, the East Bay, and Santa Cruz pretty often so we can arrange to meet if you're somewhere in the Bay area.
I'm asking for $250 for both the board and bag.

After an MBTA shutdown that lasted nearly two days the T began limited service Sunday afternoon, with the full schedule to resume Monday morning amid questions about why the weekend snowstorm had so hobbled the system.
The return to service after the longest service interruption in recent memory was greeted with relief by local residents, who couldn't help but wonder: What took so long?
Your rotting and rancid transportation system effectively throttles any true success at business (including hospital, nightlife, finance, education, entertainment) and commercial ventures in this, ahem, city. Lack of attention to infrastrucutre effectively demonstrates what a crippled town this is under the slightest duress. It is my prediction, that desite outside investment in pharmaceutical, biotech, nanotech and robotics, as well as information science, the city of Boston and environs will never become a truly world class city by any reasonable metric or standard. Including its vaunted sports teams which have enjoyed a recent "flash in the pan".
In anticipation of staffing issues, why didn't Scott and Davies ask for travel exceptions for their employees from the governor? If media members of all types had exemptions, why not for employees of the T who determined in their own judgement that they could safely get to work? It is odd The Globe reporter didn't ask this seemingly obvious question.
Please. It was one of the worst snowstorms in history. Lets have reasonable and realistic expectations!
I was impressed with the speed they got things back up and running. This blizzard dumped so much snow that many roads became one way. From my own experience commuting today, the subways were running fine. It was understandably the buses on such very narrow roads that were running so late.
Perhaps in the future for times like this they could temporarily increase the number of buses on the roads. I'm not sure if that's feasible, if we have enough drivers and buses to implement that, but it would go a long way to shortening bus wait times.

Countercurrent condensation loop |

Countercurrent condensation loop
I will be attempting to make liquid nitrogen from air. Part of the process involves passing air compressed to 200 atm through a coil and rapidly expanding it. The expanded air that does not form liquid from the rapid cooling will pass back over the condensor coils in a counter-current fashion to precool the compressed air. Of course, this countercurrent system will be insulated from the surroundings.
My question is this: how long should should I make the countercurrent coil for it to be effective? I know I will transfer more heat with a longer coil, but there has to be a point of diminsishing returns. There are many variables so I think this comes down to experience. Does anyone have any idea? I am planning on something between 8-16 feet for the coil. |
Sep25-12, 07:24 PM | #2 |
Have you had any courses in fluid mechanics and heat transfer? You can calculated all this. See Transport Phenomena by Bird, Stewart, and Lightfoot. You might also find an engineering handbook such as the Chemical Engineer's Handbook useful. The details of the complete methodology are a little too extensive to explain here. Basically, you need to learn how to design a heat exchanger.

Chris Ault: The Pistol formation isn't going away |
Posted by: Chris Vannini on January 30, 2013 One of the quarterbacks in this Sunday's Super Bowl almost wasn't a quarterback. Chris Ault has been around the media circle talking about the rise of Colin Kaepernick and his Pistol offensive in the NFL, but while on Fox Sports Radio, Ault said he was considering a position change when Kaepernick started out at Nevada. "I thought to myself, 'If he can't play quarterback, he looks like he's a good enough athlete that he could play free safety or wide receiver,'" Ault said. "At that time, Kaep was maybe 6-foot-4, about 183 pounds, built like a fork. ... He could have been a great free safety, without question. And you know, his freshman redshirt year, guys, he was OK. "There was nothing that told us he was a special athlete. He threw sidearm a little bit. He's a great pitcher and he had that little pitching motion from the sidearm. We had to try to push that thing up. And he ran the Wing-T in high school. He didn't run for a bunch of yardage. So he was just a really good athlete, but boy would he have been a heck of a free safety." Ault's Pistol offense also has become a hot topic. On Tuesday, Balitmore Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome said that the Pistol would go "extinct" from the NFL once the defensive coordinators started studying it more. Ault disagrees, but considers its move to the NFL one of the highlights of his career. "It's gotta be right up there because the NFL, it's been known as the copycat league," he said. "And of course the dropback passer, that's still the guy they want to feature and so on and so forth. But what we're seeing now are these gifted athletes that can drop back and run, and it puts a whole other dimension in your offense and a whole other idea which the defense has to defend. "I don't think it's going to go away. I think the Pistol formation is gonna stay for a while. I think they can do different things with it. And when I say that there's no question there's a giant smile on my face, and when you see it with a guy like Kaep - your guy - running it, it is really special. One of those times in your life that may never come again."

Easy Android management. Enables desktop texting. Imports iTunes songs and playlists.
- Cons Doesn't display images saved from emails. Only imports iTunes songs and playlists when Android device is connected to PC via USB. Texts takes a long time to send.
Bottom Line
SnapPea helps Android device owners better manage their photos, music, video, and apps—and it does so with aplomb.
SnapPea is billed as "Android's best friend," and after spending significant time with application I am inclined to agree—somewhat. The free utility lets Android users manage photos, music, video, contacts, and apps from the comfort of their computers. SnapPea is a useful tool, but a few niggles prevent it and my Samsung Galaxy Note II from being, like, total BFFs.
100 Best Android Apps
40 Best Free Android Apps
10 Must-Have Android Apps
Android Apps Product Guide
Getting Started
SnapPea, in a nutshell, is iTunes for Android—minus the bloat. You start by downloading SnapPea to your Windows PC and the corresponding mobile app to your Android device. There are two setup methods: You can connect your Android phone or tablet to a laptop via USB (and download the appropriate drivers), or connect via Wi-Fi. The latter option requires a small but easy amount of setup. Step one: Make sure that the laptop and Android device are connected to the same wireless signal. Step two: Launch the SnapPea mobile app and key in the displayed passcode into the SnapPea desktop app when prompted. That's it! Note: Part of SnapPea's music functionality is gimped when used over Wi-Fi. More on that later.
SnapPea then asks to you link the two devices. It's optional, but there are advantages for doing so. The app auto-connects desktop to mobile and performs automatic contact, photo, and text message backup. It's useful and I'd recommend it to all users—unless you're running the software on a public computer.
The SnapPea Experience
The SnapPea home screen has two areas. There's a large, main content area that occupies most of the screen and a column that houses the My Device and Download top-level categories.
My Devices is where you manage content and, thankfully, the interface is clean and intuitive. Clicking Apps, for example, lets you move software from internal storage to a SD card (and vice versa), export Android apps to your computer, import Android apps, delete apps, and install apps from Google Play. You can perform similar functions with Contacts, Music, Video, Pictures, and Messages content, but each category has its own unique features.
For example, Messages lets you read text messages in a layout that very much resembles an IM chat session. It's incredibly useful for people who have large mitts (like me) as I can craft messages on a large, spacious computer keyboard. I liked it a lot, but SnapPea took nearly a minute to send some of my texts—frustrating. Photos can be viewed as individual pictures or in slideshow format, but SnapPea only displays images snapped with your Android device or sent to you via text; photos saved from email aren't shown. On the music front, SnapPea allows you to import music from your desktop into to your phone. Liam Finn + Eliza June's "Honest Face" song transferred from my laptop to my Samsung Galaxy Note II in under a minute. SnapPea also lets you import music from iTunes, but only if your Android device is connected to the computer via USB.
The Download section is where you can download content from a variety of sources. There's the obligatory Google Play section, but you can also download content from the likes of Pinterest, YouTube, and Ted Talks (you can also stream video to the desktop). There are sections for Android-related sites such as Android Central and Phandroid, too.
Is it for You?
SnapPea makes managing Android content a breeze. The software is incredibly simple to use and gives users a central location for handling Android-related tasks. If you own an Android phone or tablet, consider SnapPea a worthwhile download.

Disappointed in poster's lack of clowns.
Also, Spectralysis, a daring forum adventure of aliens, and surely some non-SBURB related world destroying as well? It is pretty awful actually ok, and stay out of my signature, dude!
I posted in Obvious Things You Missed, in the MSPA Comic Discussion forum, two hours ago. I am the latest poster there right now.
My post is clearly viewable in the thread. But in the overview of threads in the MSPA Comic Discussion subforum, it doesn't appear that I am the latest poster there. It still shows the previous poster. While in other threads where I am the latest poster, I do appear as it.
And when I go to my list of latest posts, all of my recent posts appear...except for that one. And neither did the post get counted in my total amount of posts.
This is really weird.
A Member of the Midnight Crew
Also, it doesn't appear as a new post in the thread in my subscriptions, though I am subscribed to that thread and upon viewing the post I do see it has the slightly-blue icon. The subscriptions list doesn't list you as the latest poster, and the newest post goes link goes to Arcanum's immediately-preceding post.
And now someone else has posted in the thread, and that is shown on the main page of the MSPA Comic Discussion subforum, but even this didn't add my post to my total post amount nor my list of posts.
EDIT: And editing that post doesn't help anything either.
It's not a problem or anything to me, I just wonder why this happened.

I actually had something like this happen to me in the Simple Questions thread last night. It followed a long delay after hitting the Send button, like in the forum issues of yore, but unlike the forum issues of yore, it never popped up a box saying "Are you sure you want to leave this page", it just never left the page at all.
My Fanfiction:
A Hand in Holding Hands, Аn Аshen Fanfic - Completed, several chapters of content and the rest of commentary.
I honestly have no idea if this is a bug or a feature or if this is even anything remotely resembling the correct location for this post, but-
Recently I noticed that trying to load the MSPA homepage (i.e., the first page of homestuck, which is where my bookmark is directed) instead redirects me to the last page I viewed. A bit annoying when loading a scratch page only allowed me to access a "search" field restricted to act 5 and 1-4 (if anything, this is the real bug).
It's not a huge problem, but I am wondering if this is something on my end or the server's. Has this happened to other people?
It's not the correct place, this is for bugs in the forum. On the other hand, there isn't a correct place for it.
Looks like you're one of the few people whose Save feature is still working. Hit Delete Save and that should clear it up, and if it doesn't, hit Auto-Save to turn it off and then hit Delete Save again (I can't remember if deleting your save cleared your auto-save settings or not) while the rest of us stew in envy and that.
My Fanfiction:
A Hand in Holding Hands, Аn Аshen Fanfic - Completed, several chapters of content and the rest of commentary.
I suspected as much for the first portion, and man, the save feature...it seems so obvious. I guess it's autosaving? I completely forgot that was even a thing.
Anyways, thanks, that did it. I must have clicked on it accidentally at some point. Never saw the need for save/autosave when the last page I was on is always a purple link
Hi. When I try to go to this page: http://126.96.36.199/showthread.php...ere%21/page47& so that I can request quirk help, it shows me logged out. When I try to login, it logs me out. When I visit other pages I'm logged in.
The problem is with the link. Try out this link instead: http://mspaforums.com/showthread.php...ur-quirks-here!
I've found a very annoying problem. Sometimes when I try to post something, it says I must make my message at least 3 characters, regardless of post length. It's really annoying because when it says that it deletes my post and I have to write it again. It happens about a third of the time.

Don't know how to stop that bug, but I suggest you preview your posts. That way you can go back and get the post if/when there's a problem.
It's not always when I'm quoting something, but a lot of the time it is.
Also, even if I am previewing the post, if I send the post and get the 3 characters message, it deletes it.
OTP OF THE DAY: ARDirk
The deal with the quotes is that the forum considers anything inside quote tags to be zero characters - I suspect it has something to do with the lack of direct nested quote support, but that's pure speculation. There are some other tags that behave similarly, with regard to the forum thinking they contribute nothing to the post length. I don't know offhand which tags have that effect.
If you can't or don't want to get browser extensions, you can do the same thing manually - select all, copy, preview, cross your fingers, see your post got eaten, paste, make small modifications to fake the forum into realizing you have over three characters, preview, post. I've used that general method a few times in the past, though more for when my connection is super flaky than to save from the post length limit.
Hm, the problem seemed to have stopped.
Thanks guys!

Peoria Chiefs Unveil New Merchandise
By: Alexandra Sutter WMBD/WYZZ
Updated: December 4, 2012
PEORIA -- The Peoria Chiefs are debuting brand new merchandise now that the team is affiliated with the St. Louis Cardinals.
Fans can purchase three new jerseys and hats.
The Director of Media Nathan Baliva said the jersey's have more of a Cardinals look. He said there's a lot more red and no pinstripes.
The team is also releasing a new alternative hat for fans this year. Baliva said it's one that both Cubs and Cardinal fans can agree on.
He said, "We are a Cardinals affiliate but we want to be central Illinois' baseball team and we are. And so the Peoria Chiefs with the "PC" in the alternate hat it doens't have anything on it, so it doesn't matter what fan you are of baseball, we just hope you're a Peoria Chiefs fan."
Baliva said there's no change in the mascot. Homer is here to stay.

Unique Funding Opportunities
The Lakeland College women's basketball team (2-2) dropped a non-conference game, 40-26, to Carroll College in Lakeland's Moose and Dona Woltzen Gymnasium on Tuesday, Nov. 28.
Despite a frustrating 21 percent field-goal average from the floor for the game, the Muskies went into halftime only down by two with the score at an uncommonly low 16-14, as Carroll only shot 27 percent as a team in the first half.
However, the Pioneers got their shooting back on track in the second half to boost their team percentage to 36 percent for the game, while the Muskies continued to struggle.
"Carroll College just beat us on both ends of the court," said head coach April Arvan. "As bad as we were in the first half we were even worse in the second half. It was everything - points, our production and our shooting percentage. I'm embarrassed by the fact that our final score was a normal halftime score, but I'm not going to make any excuses. We're a much better team then that."
Lakeland did make a short run at taking the lead after remaining stuck at 14 points for the first six minutes of the second half, starting with a lay-up by freshman guard Megan Chart. That score was closely followed by a baseline jumper from senior forward Danielle Duranceau and another two points from Chart to make the score 22-20 with Carroll still on top.
But, that was as close as the Muskies would get as the Pioneers used a 26 point performance from junior guard Crystal Hoewisch to pull away.
In spite of fouling out with over three minutes to go in the game, senior forward Jenna Boehm led Lakeland in both scoring with six points and rebounding with eight, five of which were offensive boards.
"They're aggressive players," Arvan said of both Boehm and freshman starter Brittanie Paulus fouling out. "I don't like the calls that weren't attacking the basket since there were some in the backcourt we don't have to worry about and some where there was no scoring threat. But because of their playing personalities they tend to pick those up, so we'll have to work on that in practice."
Although the Muskies struggled offensively, Arvan was pleased with her squad's defensive effort.
"I thought defensively we did exactly what we wanted to do," she said. "We knew that Hoewisch was going to get her points. We didn't expect 26 and we hoped to contain her a little bit better, but I thought we did a great job on Elwood and Wickert.
"We can take what we did on defense as a positive, but we potentially could be a program that holds great teams to 40 points but still scores only 20. Hopefully at some point we'll be able to correct that, but if we don't, maybe at some point down the road we'll win 26 to 25."
The Muskies next game with Aurora University on Saturday, Dec. 2, will kick off their Northern Athletics Conference schedule at home.
"Obviously there's some concern that we have on the offensive end," said Arvan of the match-up with a high-scoring Aurora squad. "But I really believe in this team and I believe they'll get it figured out. They have remained positive, and I really think we will get it together; it's just a matter of when."
Game time on Saturday is set for 2 p.m.

Tilth Producers Annual Conference
David Mas Masumoto and his daughter Nikiko Masumoto will give the keynote address at the 2013 Tilth Producers Annual Conference: Nourishing the Future: Cultivating our farming legacy. Save the date to join us in Yakima, Washington on November 8-10, 2013.
Masumoto Family Farm is a 4th generation certified organic farm in California's Central Valley. Mas is the author of seven books, including the acclaimed "Epitaph for a Peach", and his latest, "Wisdom of the Last Farmer", and is also a regular columnist for the Sacramento Bee newspaper.
We are honored to have Mas and Nikiko joining us, bringing their wisdom, experience, and special storytelling talents to our Tilth conference. They will share their individual perspectives of how their family farm affects their inner lives and will also conduct a workshop on inter-generational transfer of farming knowledge and skills, along with transference of the farm itself.
Mas and Nikiko will convey their philosophy of nurturing the land that sustains them. Their family ties: to the farm, to each other as individuals, and to their farming community – stand out as strong characteristics that drive their day-to-day decisions. Their four-generation journey on this special farm is fascinating: from the "original" organic practices of Mas' grandfather, to the "conventional" period of quick-fix farming, then "back" to the enlightened, organic farming practices they use today to sustainably farm 80 acres. Mas and Nikiko will share stories of their family's – and the farm's – history, including the heartbreaking Relocation Camp time during World War II for his grandparents. Over the years there have been crop failures, successes, market changes, and the tough, risky decisions the family has had to make – and to stick by. Now, Nikiko is poised to take on the mantle of the farm from her parents and continue this family's amazing story of farming.

WHEN I travel, I go to supermarkets. Unlike most touring shoppers, I never pause at store windows displaying jewelry and haute couture. But whether I'm in Aix or Antwerp New Orleans or Naples, I make a beeline for the local grocery store to peruse aisles of preserves, inhale the scent of coffee and pick up toothpaste sporting foreign labels.
More than one pal at home has benefited from my wanderings, gifted with a tub of New Zealand clover honey or a pound of chicory-laced coffee from Rouses on Royal Street. I've found that those kinds of souvenirs are always welcome.

Webmaster Tools Showing No Search Queries Since Alerts Update
Hi Guys
Since the alerts update for search queries in Webmaster Tools, on the 20th of Aug, no Search Queries are showing in Webmaster Tools.
It just say "No Data Available"
Can somebody maybe give me insight as to why this is happening.
I much mention that I did submit a new Sitemap for my website and it was only processed on the 23rd of Aug.
I can however see the keywords that people use to get to my site, in Google Analytics, but I also know, that data data is different than the "Search Query" data that Webmaster Tools provide.
Thank You

Danny Cohen, the controller of BBC One
EVIL Derek Brannings last gasp in EastEnders led the BBC to triumph in the festive ratings war.
The soap opera trounced ITV rival Downton Abbey by two million viewers in the Christmas Day battle of the drama giants.
A massive 9.4million tuned in to watch fearsome Derek, played by Jamie Foreman, 54, drop dead of a heart attack.
Meanwhile just 7.3m bothered with Downton, a drop of 1.3m compared to last year.
Many complained it was just too miserable, after the romantic lead died just moments after meeting his newborn son.
Matthew Crawley, played by 30-year-old Dan Stevens, was killed suddenly in an off-screen car crash.
Viewer Rui Delgado tweeted: Downton Abbey Christmas Special is the new Grinch or the new Scrooge for that matter. They just ruined Christmas.
Formula One star Max Chilton, 21, added: Downton Abbey you have just ruined my Christmas Day! #ThatWasntNeeded.
And Joe Jackson wrote: Downton Abbey wasnt very Christmassy... possibly the most horrible ending to an episode I have ever seen.
BBC smash hits Strictly Come Dancing, Doctor Who and The Royle Family all made the festive top five with more than 7.5m viewers each.
Only Coronation Street made an impact for ITV, with 8.8m viewers forcing it into second place overall.
The festive plot saw bride Leanne Battersby, played by Jane Danson, 34, left at the altar by 40-year-old Ben Prices cheating Nick Tilsley.
It beat BBC period drama Call The Midwife, which pulled in 7.3m viewers, its smallest audience since launching earlier this year.
The Beeb claimed almost a third of viewers during the 6pm to 10.30pm peak, compared to a quarter who watched ITV.
Danny Cohen, the controller of BBC One, said: Its been brilliant to see so many viewers watching BBC One on Christmas Day.
Audiences tuned in for unmissable special episodes of their favourite shows, with East-Enders topping the table as the most popular show of the day.
We have many more television treats for viewers to enjoy on BBC1 over the rest of the festive season."

Those that hunted deer in Warren should be punished
I am writing in regards to the letter, Large deer herd should be culled.
I go out walking there to watch the deer, and some people have never been there to see them.
I am very devastated over the illegal shooting of a deer in Warren, and I am sure it was a very close-range shot at the deer.
They do come up close looking for food, or they are just simply being curious when I talk to them.
I do have a lot of beautiful close-up pictures. The deer there are much more domesticated. Wild deer will run the minute they see you move from a distance. The very designated, remote areas make a difference, a place in which the deer will run around everywhere.
It also would be impossible to fence the deer in there, because of the big area and water there and how they live. As far as a large herd, there isnt one. I havent seen as many deer there, like it was three years ago, and that wasnt a big herd.
I am sure illegal hunting is still going on there. The deer are being fed by neighbors and sometimes by people like me.
They dont run out in front of cars, because this place is their home.
They need to throw the book at the two guys, because they should know better or at least get some jail time and fees.
After all, look at all they went through to shoot a deer illegally on city property.
A sign is posted. Im so glad a recent sign is posted that says No Hunting.
I hope they post a sign at the water treatment plant, too.

Kings-76ers Preview
Sacramento Kings at Philadelphia 76ers
- The 76ers have beaten the Kings seven of the last eight times the teams have tipped off against one another.
- Sacramento is 11-10 versus Eastern Conference opponents this season, as opposed to just 6-20 against teams in its own conference. The Kings' loss to the Celtics on Wednesday snapped their four-game win streak versus Eastern Conference clubs.
- Philadelphia has struggled to get to the free-throw line this season, its 16.9 attempts per game ranking next to last in the league (Magic -- 16.0). The 76ers' opponents have actually made more free throws (765) than Philadelphia has even attempted (760).
- Isaiah Thomas is shooting 49.2 (63/128) percent in Sacramento wins this season, as opposed to just 40.8 (109/267) percent in losses.
- After recording just three double-digit scoring performances in his first 39 career games, rookie Thomas Robinson has now had 10+ points in three of his last five contests. Robinson, the overall No. 5 pick in the 2012 draft, is averaging just 5.0 ppg this season.
- Jrue Holiday is averaging 23.8 points and 9.5 assists per game since January 12. He had 21 points and six assists in Wednesday's win over the Wizards; Philadelphia has won five of its last six games when Holiday has 20+ points and 6+ dimes.
By JEFF BARTL
(AP) -- Philadelphia 76ers coach Doug Collins has done his best patching together lineups with the team generally struggling without a couple key players.
As a result, players like Nick Young are beginning to embrace their roles.
Philadelphia reaches the halfway point of an eight-game homestand Friday night as it seeks an eighth victory in nine meetings with the Sacramento Kings.
Andrew Bynum has yet to play for the 76ers (19-26) due to a right knee injury after being acquired in the Dwight Howard trade, and Jason Richardson is likely to miss a sixth straight game Friday because of a left knee problem.
Collins has started Young the last three games in place of Richardson and has given him increased minutes in the past six. Young is averaging 17.8 points over the last four, including 18 in Wednesday's 92-84 win over Washington as Philadelphia improved to 2-1 on its homestand.
Dorell Wright had seven points and seven rebounds in 16 minutes after not playing the previous two games.
"It's been a challenge, to say the least, to try to get the pieces to fit," said Collins, who has started 11 different players. "I thank them for their professionalism. It's very easy for guys who have been in the league a long time like that to just pack it in, and neither one of them did that."
Young was benched for a win over Houston on Jan. 12, providing him with the motivation to contribute in any way he's asked.
"That DNP, it hurt," Young said. "Sitting on the sideline, I don't want to get back to that. I'm starting to buy into what the coaches are talking about."
Collins has noticed the difference.
"He has really listened as we've tried to teach," Collins said. "He has talent. I knew if he focused, he could be a terrific player. He's earned the respect of his teammates and coaches."
The Sixers haven't won back-to-back games since a season high-tying three-game winning streak Nov. 25-30. They'll try to do so against a Sacramento team they've beaten by an average of 18.4 points over their last seven victories in the series.
The Kings' only win in the past eight meetings came in overtime.
They enter this one having dropped five of six, with the defeats coming by an average of 14.8 points. They're allowing an average of 106.5 points in that span and rank near the bottom of the league at 103.1 per game for the season.
Sacramento (17-30) is 1-2 on a six-game road trip after falling 99-81 at Boston on Wednesday. Tyreke Evans had 19 points and 11 rebounds but also committed four of the Kings' 19 turnovers, about their average (18.6) in the last five games.
"We were lackadaisical," said rookie Thomas Robinson, who scored 11 points off the bench.
Philadelphia has been outrebounded in six of its last seven games, though it seemingly has a good opportunity to win that battle against a Sacramento team that ranks among the league's worst with a minus-3.5 rebound differential per game.
"We're as good as our big men play," Collins said. "When they play well, we can play with most every team. People are going to try and attack us in the paint because without Andrew Bynum we're a small team."
Kings center DeMarcus Cousins, though, has averaged 10.5 points and 5.0 rebounds over the last four games. He has no double-doubles in that span after a stretch in which he posted six straight, averaging 21.7 points and 13.3 boards.

CMT Music Awards Performers Confirmed: Taylor Swift, Luke Bryan, Hunter Hayes & More
Perfection was (almost) everywhere on Monday night's "Dancing with the Stars" semi-finals.
Four of the five remaining couples earned a perfect score of 30 from the judges–including Kellie Pickler, who turned around cranky judge Len Goodman with her flawless Argentine Tango.
Who, exactly, is the ace of the Mariners' rotation? Unquestionably, it's the man who signed a seven-year, $175 million contract over the winter. But Hisashi Iwakuma is dealing like a No. 1 pitcher, too, and the Mariners certainly aren't griping about it.
It's a new year, but the same story for Felix Hernandez and the Mariners. The 27-year-old has allowed just nine runs in 42 2/3 innings this season, yet Seattle has lost three of the six games he's started.
So this is why they traded for Aaron Harang. The 34-year-old right-hander put to rest some of the doubts he had created over his first weeks as a Mariner by holding the Baltimore Orioles to four hits and two runs in six innings in Seattle's 8-3 victory Wednesday night, delighting 12,936 at Safeco Field.
Keith Urban Music Videos
The Mariners lost a game, a series and maybe a little bit more. Wednesday's 8-3 defeat to the Houston Astros, who had entered Safeco Field with a record of 1-6 and at the bottom of the American League West, cost the Mariners a key home series within their division, but it also might have cost them something that could be far more valuable -- at least for a little while.

Do the math: average haul per robbery, $3,002. Grand total: $24018, meaning each guy got 12 grand (forget that one guy did the first alone). Was it worth it? If you get ten years, that's 1200 a year. and the fine could be ten times more than the take. You have to be kidding me.

Photo: The Devil''s Music: Violin ensemble La Pieta plays homage to Devil-inspired songs through the ages, on Halloween in Carmel.
If the rarified air of a chamber music recital doesn''t conjure up images of the Devil getting his groove on, your perception might change tomorrow when Lucifer and his bad self appear live at Carmel''s Sunset Center. Satan reluctantly shares the bill with the string ensemble La Pieta in "The Infernal Violin," the opening night concert of Chamber Music Monterey Bay.
A tribute to classical and modern works inspired by the Evil One, "The Infernal Violin" features music ranging from Franz Liszt''s "Mephisto Waltz" to an unusual combination of the Rolling Stone''s "Sympathy for the Devil" and "Paint it Black." In between the 11 songs in the performance, Satan banters on about his very personal connection to the music.
Angele Dubeau is the founder and lead violinist of La Pieta, a 12-woman group from Montreal named in honor of the Venetian convent orchestra for which Vivaldi wrote most of his pieces 300 years ago. Dubeau hatched the idea for "The Infernal Violin" while researching the music she wanted to record for her 23rd CD, beginning with the "Devil''s Trill" by 18th-century composer Giuseppe Tartini, who supposedly claimed the Devil played the tune for him in his sleep.
Finding that many compositions she liked had Satanic undertones, Dubeau decided to devote the album to the Devil''s influence on the various pieces of music chosen. "The musical idea of this concert is first to visit playfully the repertoire of different eras," she says. "But the important thing is the composers were all inspired by this same devilish theme."
For live performances of "The Infernal Violin," Dubeau decided to bring a devil on stage to help flesh out the material. Noted Canadian actor Romano Orzari developed the role in French, but performs it in English for the group''s present US tour. The CD Infernal Violins won a Juno award (the Canadian Grammy) in 2001.
Despite appearances to the contrary, Dubeau insists she has not signed a pact with Beelzebub. "The Devil is not in my house. I''m positive and I love life. It''s just that the violin has been very often the instrument of the Devil," says Dubeau. She cites 19th-century Italian composer and violinist Nicolo Paganini as an example. "Paganini was so talented that critics attributed his outstanding virtuosity to a pact he had signed with the Devil himself," she says, noting that the Church denied Paganini a Catholic burial in part because he had allegedly said the Devil "led him by the hand" while he played.
While Dubeau has been honored for her spirited playing on her circa 1733 Stradivarius, she has happily managed to avoid any comparisons to the Devil. In fact, because of her name, more often than not she''s compared to an angel. "I''m not saying that I am an angel, but my personality is more on that side than the dark side," she says.
Dubeau assures Carmel audiences that they needn''t fret about crossing paths with Satan at Friday evening''s performance. "It''s a nice devil and always with not quite a smile," says Dubeau. "The only reason he''s there is to bring the music alive, to say the Devil loves music."
Still, sharing a stage with such a scene-stealer is not easy. During one of the Devil''s longer soliloquies, Dubeau has to interrupt to remind him who''s in charge. "You have to realize that you''re our guest, but it''s our concert, so don''t take my place," Dubeau tells Satan. By curtain time, both Dubeau and the Devil know where they stand on La Pieta''s stage. "He''s not the boss," says Dubeau. "I''m the boss."
La Pieta performs "The Infernal Violin" Oct. 31 at 8PM at Carmel''s Sunset Center. Wear a mask to the 7pm reception and you might win a prize. 625-2212.

Vancouver -
Four more medals, a record-tying gold-medal haul and a win over Russia in men's hockey has made Wednesday the most successful day for the host country at the 2010 Games.
Canada has caught up to the United States and Germany for the most gold medals at these Olympics with seven after the Canada-1 sled piloted by Calgary's Kaillie Humpheries slid into first in women's bobsled at the Whistler Sliding Centre.
The seven gold medals ties the most ever by Canada at Winter Olympics, first set in 2002 in Salt Lake City and equalled in Turin four years ago. With four more days of competition it will almost certainly be broken.
Humpheries, with Heather Moyse of Summerside, P.E.I., at brakeman, were wire-to-wire leaders in women's bobsled. They were joined on the podium by Canada-2, with pilot Helen Upperton of Calgary and brakeman Shelley Ann Brown of Pickering, Ont., who finished second.
It was Canada's first 1-2 finish of the 2010 Games.
Also winning medals for Canada Wednesday were speedskater Clara Hughes, a bronze in the women's 5,000-metre speedskating event, and the Canadian women's short-track 3,000-metre relay team, who won silver. Korea crossed the line first, but were disqualified, moving China into the gold-medal spot and Canada into silver. The United States took bronze.
Canada now has 15 medals, fourth on the overall table behind the United States (28), Germany (24) and Norway (18).
