Fo' shizzle! Snoop throws out first pitch
By Scott Merkin / MLB.com
Snoop took pictures with fellow first-pitch thrower Bob McMillen, the head coach of the Rush, Chicago's Arena Football League entry, and then fired a strike to Chris Sale.
"Oh man, that was special," Snoop Dogg said. "It was a strike. It was a changeup, screwball. It was one of my pitches that I normally don't really go into, but we are in the Windy City so I had to make sure it got over the plate the right way."
Known as more of a football and basketball supporter, Snoop expressed pride in going to the same high school as Tony Gwynn and said he knew how to play baseball "if necessary." He made the stop on the South Side before venturing to Indiana for a concert later Thursday night.
"You are supposed to enjoy it when you are out here," Snoop said. "It's too bad the Bulls ain't in it. We expected a lot out of them this year, but we'll roll with the White Sox."
White Sox and Twins players posed for pictures with Snoop, and he made a pregame stop in the White Sox clubhouse. He also talked in the dugout with manager Robin Ventura, who Snoop Dogg apparently followed when Ventura was a player.
"Apparently he knew some stats of mine that I didn't know," said a smiling Ventura. "He's a big fan of mine."
De Aza's home run overturned after review
CHICAGO -- Alejandro De Aza's leadoff homer in the fifth inning of Thursday's 11-8 win over the Twins was overturned by instant replay.
De Aza launched a 3-2 pitch from Cole De Vries down the right-field line that was originally ruled to be fair by first-base umpire Doug Eddings.
After a brief conference on the field, all the umpires but home-plate umpire Paul Nauert went in to review the call. They came back with a foul-ball ruling, and De Aza took a called third strike to start a scoreless frame.
"Yeah, I know it was foul," said De Aza, who launched his first career grand slam in the sixth. "But I saw the umpire call it fair, so I kept going."
It was the ninth time in White Sox history that they've been involved in the usage of instant replay to review a home run since it was instated in 2008. It's the third time it took place at U.S. Cellular Field.
Floyd not concerned about bumpy stretch
CHICAGO -- The last two starts for Gavin Floyd have ended in defeats, with less than flattering pitching lines to go with the setbacks. But they clearly haven't sapped his confidence.
When asked Thursday if he noticed a difference in his starts against the Angels and Tuesday against the Twins, in which he allowed a combined 16 runs on 18 hits in 9 2/3 innings, as opposed to his previous four when he was so good in allowing four runs over 28 2/3 innings, Floyd didn't miss a beat with the following answer.
"I'm still good," said Floyd with a smile but without a hint of joking.
Floyd feels as if he made decent pitches against the Twins, but it was partially a case of the ground balls he induced finding holes. Plunking No. 9 hitter Jamey Carroll with a one-out pitch in the fourth to start a five-run inning didn't exactly enhance Floyd's night, either.
"I was not very good with my command. I was rushing a little bit," Floyd said. "Consistency through the game wasn't there.
"There were a lot of things that went wrong, but it's part of the process of baseball. You try not to have those games, but no matter how much you try, they are going to happen. Hopefully, they don't happen often. It just happened to me two games in a row."
When Floyd next takes the mound on Sunday against the Indians, he doesn't feel as if wholesale changes are needed. It will take better command and possibly a little better luck.
"You do the same thing on a different day and get different results," Floyd said. "What's done is done, and you just have to move on from there and try to get better.
"It just stinks, but I'm no different than I was three games ago. You just keep grinding it out in a long baseball season. You keep having the same attack, aggressiveness, focus and trust, and just keep going after it."
Reed hears of ascent to closer role from Twitter
CHICAGO -- News of Addison Reed's full-time closer status, made official by White Sox manager Robin Ventura before Wednesday's victory, wasn't relayed to Reed from anyone with the team or by the media.
"I didn't even know until I think my sister text me or something and she said she saw it on Twitter," said Reed, who gave up Justin Morneau's two-run homer in the ninth inning of Thursdays' 11-8 victory over the Twins. "Everything is on Twitter now. She said she saw it on Twitter and yeah, I mean, it's awesome.
"Like I've always said, it's something I always wanted to do. I love being in that situation in the ninth inning, so yeah, I'm ready for it. Hopefully I get a lot of opportunities."
The 23-year-old said it was hinted at that he would take over the closer role. But with four of his last six appearances resulting in saves, he had a pretty good idea as to what job he would be handling.
"When I got those last few appearances in the ninth, I kind of thought something was maybe going on. I'm happy, though. I'm just pumped up," Reed said. "So, I mean, it doesn't bother me that nobody told me."
Reed worked Thursday in a non-save situation and suffered a bruise on his glove hand when trying to snag Joe Mauer's leadoff comebacker line drive. The hand was being iced postgame, and Reed expected no further problems.
Third to first
Playing an unknown position such as third base is a small price for Orlando Hudson to pay as a tradeoff for going to a contender such as the White Sox.
"We're fighting for something. We got a great chance to win the division," Hudson said. "We got a chance to do a lot of great things."
White Sox relievers had their consecutive scoreless innings pitched streak snapped at 11 2/3 during Thursday's 11-8 victory over the Twins.
The White Sox improved to 12-11 against the American League Central.
Paul Konerko hit his 45th career homer against the Twins, his most against any opponent.

The Columbus Elementary School teacher who was a guest of the first lady for the State of the Union address will be a guest on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show."
After being invited to President Barack Obama's State of the Union address as Michelle Obama's guest Jan. 24, Sara Ferguson was invited on to "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" for an episode airing Thursday.
Called a "hero teacher" in the show's promotional press release, Ferguson was among 204 teachers and 64 support staffers that vowed to work for delayed pay when Chester Upland School District faced bankruptcy earlier in January. The district's financial crisis gained national attention.
"When Ellen heard her story, she knew she had to meet Sara," the release stated.
"I want everyone to know that budgets cannot be balanced on the backs of our school children," Ferguson said in a previous interview. "It is every child's right to have an education."
A third-generation educator, Ferguson has worked in the district for 20 years. She teaches literacy and math.
Also appearing as a guest Thursday will be first lady Michelle Obama, as well as actor Daniel Radcliffe. "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" airs weekdays at 3 p.m. on WCAU Channel 10.

Survey of Tech CU Conversion Opponents Finds Support for Leadership Change
A survey of members of Technology Credit Union who organized to oppose the credit union's proposed conversion to a bank expressed overwhelming support for changing the leadership of the 70,000 member, $1.6 billion institution.
The survey's results were dismissed by an executive of the San Jose, Calif., credit union.
A total of 164 of the Save TCU group's supporting members expressed an opinion on 10 questions the group asked about its goals going forward after members voted down the proposed charter change to a mutual savings bank in September, organizers said.
The questions ranged from seeking leadership changes at the CEO and board chairman positions to making other possible board changes and seeking changes to First Technology's bylaws.
On the question of removing Technology CEO Barbara Kamm, who group members see as the originator of the charter change idea, 93.7% of 158 members approved, with six members skipping the question.
On the question of removing Technology Board Chairman Mical Brenzel, similarly 93.7% agree with six members skipping the question.
Speaking for the credit union, Lisa Fettner, vice president of marketing, declined to comment in detail about the survey, noting that it was difficult to know who was surveyed or whether it was done in a scientifically accurate manner.
She did note, however, that with 164 respondents, the survey only represented the views of 0.24% of the Technology Credit Union membership.
"At Tech CU, we regularly conduct monthly satisfaction surveys with our members, and our results have consistently been – and remain – high," Fettner noted. "Over 90% of our members are satisfied with the products and services that Tech CU provides."

There are some good points made.
I don't think of him as a poor man's Gay. I think of him more as a poor man's Josh Smith. (just for comparison)
I'm also not sure what he brings to the team, but he's got some good qualities. Great athleticism, pretty efficient scorer (even without a 3 pter, which isn't so bad if you use him at PF, because he doesn't take the "pull your hair out" 3s that a Josh Smith might), pretty good defensive player. Nothing special though in any way.

Countdown to the 2014 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games
- Jul 28, 2014
- Comment
- Topics:
For the first time ever, the Fédération Equestre Internationale World Equestrian Games (WEG) are being held in France, in a city along the English Channel called Caen.
Caen. I have no idea how that's pronounced in English.
It's hard enough in French. It's kind of like "caw" except at the end you have to get whiny with your nose like you're trying to stifle a sneeze. But Caen just happens to be pronounced exactly like the French word, "quand," which means "when." So if you get lost on your way to WEG and have to ask for directions—if you say it right—it'll sound like you're saying, "Where's when?" (If you don't say it right, you're going to end up repeating it 15 times with 15 different versions of "caw" that are going to make people think what you really should be looking for is a hospital.)
But today, at less than a month before WEG's opening ceremonies on August 23, the fact that Caen sounds like "When?" couldn't be more fitting. Of all questions, "When?" is the one that evokes the most sense of anticipation and excitement: When? When? When? Caen? Caen? Caen? WEG? WEG? WEG?
Yeah, exactly! I absolutely can't wait either!
And neither can all of Normandy. The excitement is brewing. The cider is, well, malolacting (because Normandy is famed for its cider rather than wine, and "fermenting" sounds gross). The cheese is aging. The flowers are blooming. The fish are jumping. The festivities are developing. The parking lots are expanding. The tickets are selling. The hotels are booking. The shows are rehearsing. The athletes are training, and the grooms are grooming.
Everything and everyone is eagerly anticipating the start of this extraordinary equestrian event back, on European soil again after the 2010 Games in the Lexington, Kentucky. All the riders, judges, veterinarians, event planners, spectators, B&B hosts, restaurateurs and shopkeepers, journalists (especially me!), and everyone shouting "When? When? When?"
"Quand, Caen, quand?"
A month. Just less than one short month.
And I. Can't. Wait.
What WEG events and stories are you eager for?

University of Fla. police cleared in use of TASER on student
The Associated Press
Read news report 9.18.07: Student tasered at Kerry event provokes public outcry
Watch the video
GAINESVILLE, Florida — University of Florida police were justified when they used a stun gun called a Taser against a student who refused to stop questioning U.S. Senator John Kerry at a campus event, according to a state investigation released Wednesday.
A summary of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement report was released by the University of Florida after some questioned the use of force against student Andrew Meyer.
The scuffle between Meyer and police started during the Sept. 17 speech when Meyer refused to leave the microphone after his allotted time was up, police said. Police said he used vulgar language and physically resisted the officers.
The videotaped altercation and Meyer's cries of "Don't Tase me bro!" were played frequently on the Internet.
"In short, the FDLE determined that our officers acted well within state guidelines," university President Bernie Machen said in a letter to students, faculty and staff.
Rob Griscti, Meyer's attorney, said he had not yet reviewed the report and had no immediate comment. The journalism major is known for posting practical jokes online on his Web site.
Machen said two officers who were placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation were reinstated Wednesday.
The report says the officers first intent was just to escort Meyer from the auditorium, but he broke away and refused to comply with verbal instructions from the officers.
Meyer has been charged by police for resisting an officer and disturbing the peace, but the State Attorney's Office has not yet decided whether to file formal charges.

Maryland State Police say a psychiatric hospital patient stabbed a staffer in the head with a spike.
As staff at the Thomas B. Finan Center in Cumberland tried to restrain the combative patient on Monday morning, police say one staffer was struck in the back of the head with a 7-inch galvanized spike.
When troopers arrived, police say the patient, 50-year-old Craig Zello of Hagerstown, confronted them but was taken into custody without incident. The spike was still lodged in the staffer's head and police say he was taken to Western Maryland Regional Medical Center with serious injuries.
Zello is charged with first- and second-degree attempted murder, first- and second-degree assault, reckless endangerment and possession of a dangerous weapon with intent to injure. He is being held without bond.

Typing this with my left hand
I know the feeling. being there so many times before. xD
I hate to be a stickler here, but the cinematography and sound design are not up to par in this video. There was one jump cut a little ways in that completely ignored the 180 degree rule. From now on I'll stick to jerking off to Shawshank Redemption, lesson learned.
you can recreate the world population easily with the amout of sperm of all viewers xD xD xD
Actually, even with only 1000 people. :)
So.. does anybody actually share this stuff on twitter?
The pornstars and staff do
Was just thinking the same thing.
dought it
I dont get why this is the most viewed video. It's nothing out of the ordinary. :-/
It's one of the earlier videos posted. Been here for years and has gotten lots of views. Still one of my favorites.
U r ultragay
That reverse cowgirl riding and then her licking her cum off his dick, was pretty hot
Maybe it's great at being just that: what most people look for in a porn video, in nice quality. It's not the awesomeness that makes a viral.
that's just it, some perfect straight sex :p
its not even good home video-best of all time-?????W.T.F.-body 6 out of 10-lousy skinny calves-small boobs no cleavage-lousy sexual action.Gianna Micheals,LIsa Ann and 100's of others at there worst are better than this farce!!!!!AND THE GUY????W.T.F.
true fact
Because it's a decent length & a basic video; no extra shit like toys, fetishes, orgies or (even) anal. Great angles for us spankers out here & this white chick is tanned enough to give her an "exotic" look; ASIDE from the FACT that she's hot as all hell. But that's what makes this so "repeatedly viewable;" as you put it, "it's nothing out of the ordinary" (which proves that MOST of us are NOT into all that "extra" shit - lol)
That's what makes it so hot! It isn't so out there or so heavy-duty porn that it didn't happen last night or can't happen tonight. Yum.
Have to agree with you. Came here expecting something special seeing as it's had 68 million views at this time. Must be the misinforming title that gets it the views.
Dayum! That is such a great looking poster of the Baja California Peninsula. Looks like it was taken from space. Does anyone know where I can a copy of that poster?

text: Coming in March, the recently (well, a year ago now) discovered episode from Galaxy 4 is being released with... The Aztecs. Not my first choice. Considering The Tenth Planet is missing it's final episode (which will likely be animated anyway) should Galaxy 4 Airlock have been released with that set to help sales? The Aztecs just seems like a silly choice to me.

It was a summer-like day at the beach – hot weather, glassy water and dolphins cruising around.
Unfortunately, the waves were also stuck in summer mode, small and mushy and making it tough for competitors at the National Scholastic Surf Contest down in Newport Beach at 54th street on Sunday.
"The season has been unbelievably beautiful for the weather, I haven't seen that happen in years," NSSA executive director Janice Aragon said. "It's been a slow start to the season wave-wise, it hasn't been an eventful season for surf – but you know NSSA always gets the job done and we make the most of it. The kids learn they have to surf in all conditions, that's part of it."
The fifth stop for the NSSA Open Division brought some of the top young competitors from around the region to battle it out between the rock jetties in West Newport, as the competition heats up with the circuit hitting the half-way mark to National Championships in Huntington Beach next year.
NSSA brings together best surfers from around the nation to compete against one another. The Open is the NSSA's most prestigious and premier division and only open to students who maintain a 2.0 GPA and higher. The NSSA, a nonprofit organization, has been around since 1978 and holds about 80 contests throughout the year.
Aragon said she's impressed with the level of talent coming from the next generation of surfers.
"We have a lot of young kids this year, which is a really positive sign for the future," she said. "They're so impressive. You see some of the young talent doing airs now, and you're seeing a lot of progressive surfing out of them because they're watching the older kids."

I'm new here, so I hope this is the right place for this: I only recently began watching Star Trek, and since I want to watch the episodes in the right order (seeing as there is a lot of overlap during TNG/DS9/Voyager), I looked for a list like this, but couldn't find one, so I made one myself A list of all the Star Trek episodes, ordered by their original air date: http://startreklist.blogspot.com/ (The page also contains a list of episodes ordered by star date, if known. Interestingly enough (if you disregard Enterprise for a moment), the episode with the oldest star date is an episode from the animated series) I hope you guys will find this useful as well!

The Summary Earnings variables document reported earnings, wages and salary, self-employment earnings, and agricultural employment for the original respondent as well as first and second spouses. The earnings information is pertinent for the years 1951-1974. The variables selected from the first three waves of the Retirement History Longitudinal Survey include employment information concerning current and past employment, number of hours worked, number of hours off work, how the job was found, gross pay and time unit of pay, pension plans from current job and past jobs, types of pensions, and types of benefits. The subset also includes items pertaining to work history of the respondent, retirement plans, and, if retired, plans to work in the future. Demographic information collected about respondents, their spouses, and other members of the household includes race, sex, age, date of birth, marital status, education, occupation, income, benefits amount, number of children and children attending school, and household composition and relationship.

ROME – Matthew Festing — aka His Most Eminent Highness the Prince and Grand Master of the Knights of Malta — bounds into the sitting room of his magnificent Renaissance palazzo sweaty and somewhat disheveled, and asks an aide if he should take off his sweater to be photographed.
Garrulous and self-effacing, Festing embodies some of the paradoxes of a fabled Catholic religious order that dates from the medieval Crusades: Steeped in European nobility and mystique, the order's mission is humility and charity — running hospitals, ambulance services and old folks' homes around the globe. It has many trappings of a country, printing its own stamps, coins, license plates and passports, and yet — a stateless state – it rules over no territory.
The Sovereign Military Order of Malta's world headquarters, down the block from the Spanish Steps, features reception rooms draped in oil portraits of grand masters past and a gem of a chapel where King Juan Carlos of Spain was baptized by the future Pope Pius XII.
On the ground floor, it runs a health clinic that, while private, provides free services for anyone who can't pay.
"It is, I suppose, a series of contradictions," Festing told The Associated Press ahead of the order's 900th birthday this week.
And as the Sovereign Military and Hospitaller Order of St. John of Jerusalem of Rhodes and of Malta, as the group is officially called, celebrates the anniversary on Saturday with a procession through St. Peter's Square, a Mass in the basilica and an audience with Pope Benedict XVI, the ancient order is confronting some very modern-day issues.
Once drawn exclusively from Europe's nobility, the order is trying to shed its image as a purely rich man's club while still tapping the world's wealthy to fund its charitable work. And though its military past is well behind it, the order is waging real legal battles to fend off what it says are impostors seeking to piggyback on its name to con people out of money.
Festing, a 63-year-old Briton and former Sotheby's auctioneer, is expansive about the unusual attributes of his organization of 13,500 knights and dames who make promises to be good Christians and fund the order's humanitarian work.
"On the one hand it's a sovereign entity. On the other hand it's a religious order. On the other hand it's a humanitarian organization. It's a complicated mixture of things," he says in an interview in the gold silk brocaded state drawing room between meetings with parting Vatican nuncios and visiting ministers, diplomatic receptions and silent prayer.
The order traces its history to the 11th century, with the establishment of an infirmary in Jerusalem that cared for people of all faiths making pilgrimages to the Holy Land. It is the last of the great lay chivalrous military orders like the Knights Templars that combined religious fervor with fierce military might to protect and expand Christendom from Islam's advance during the Crusades.
In February 1113, Pope Paschal II issued a papal bull recognizing the order as independent from bishops or secular authorities. That "birth certificate," as Festing calls it, is the legal basis for asserting the order's sovereignty and the reason for Saturday's anniversary celebrations at the Vatican.
Festing himself is a "professed knight" — the highest rank of members who take vows of poverty, chastity and obedience. The poverty vow seems a bit relative in this context: Knights on the order's governing council have their own apartments inside the palace, complete with a valet and driver for cars that carry either diplomatic plates or the order's own SMOM plates. Wine from the order's own vineyards is often served.
Pope Benedict XVI is a member, though he's an exception. Professed knights aren't ordained priests and traditionally descend from noble blood.
Festing, whose family traces its ancestry to 14th- and 16th-century knights, was elected grand master in 2008. It's a title he holds for life and is equivalent to the rank of cardinal, though he can't vote in a conclave to elect a pope.
Currently there are about 60 professed knights and Festing hopes to increase their numbers as he seeks to expand the rank-and-file base to a younger generation of equally Catholic but not necessarily noble classes around the globe.
"It's not exactly out of date, but you can't maintain that in the 21st century," he says. "In general terms, in the old countries of Europe, we maintain the nobiliary requirement to an extent. But only to an extent. But in places like Australia, Central America, North America, Southeast Asia, it's all done on a different basis."
Members are still expected to chip in when natural disasters strike or wars erupt. Contributions in the tens of thousands of dollars are not unusual. Members also volunteer, bringing the sick to the shrine at Lourdes or pitching in at a one of the order's clinics, like the maternity hospital it runs in Bethlehem just a few steps from Jesus' traditional birthplace, where most of the patients are Muslim.
Even though it's a Catholic aid group the order works in several Muslim countries, including Pakistan and Syria. "We do not hide that we are Christian, but we do not proselytize. That is impossible," said the order's health minister, Albrecht von Boeselager.
All told, members, employees and volunteers who total 118,500 work in aid projects in 120 countries; the overall annual operating budget can run to 200 million euros, Festing says.
Governments, the European Union and U.N. agencies finance the order's humanitarian operations; it has observer status at the United Nations and diplomatic relations with 104 countries — many in the developing world where such ties can help smooth the delivery of aid.
But the prestige has come with a price: Copycat orders have sprung up claiming to be the Knights of Malta or an offshoot that may or may not legitimately trace its origins to the group. These "false orders" prey on people eager to contribute to a Catholic charity.

Cards get call confirmed, lose challenge vs. Phillies
By Erik Bacharach and Michael Radano / MLB.com
PHILADELPHIA -- In a tied game in the top of the ninth inning between the Cardinals and Phillies, a call was confirmed after a crew chief review was initiated.
Cardinals second baseman Kolten Wong skied a pitch from Phillies closer Jonathan Papelbon to the deepest part of the park in center. Phillies center fielder Ben Revere went back on the ball, but it sailed over his head. After hitting off the wall, the ball ricocheted off Revere's leg and into the hedges beyond the center-field fence. The initial ruling on the field put Wong on second base with a ground-rule double.
A crew chief review for a rules check on a deflected ball was initiated, and shortly, the call on the field was confirmed.
Replay again came into play when, with one out in the 10th inning, the Cardinals' Peter Bourjos hit a ball to Phillies shortstop Jimmy Rollins, who fired the ball to get Bourjos on a close play at first. The Cardinals asked for a review as first-base coach Chris Maloney motioned to first-base umpire D.J. Reyburn that Bourjos was safe.
After a 59-second review, the call was ruled to stand and the Cardinals didn't score in the inning.

Miller Energy Resources Inc., Knoxville, reported completion of a horizontal well in Mississippian Fort Payne limestone in Tennessee.
Initial test rate at the CPP-H-1 well in Scott County was 365 b/d of oil and 730 Mcfd of gas on a ¾-in. choke with no water. Miller Energy said the lateral exposed 2,300 ft of pay section (OGJ Online, Dec. 21, 2012).
Production is to start as soon as the company receives Environmental Protection Agency approval to reject the gas into the solution gas drive reservoir. Miller Energy expects the well to produce 200-225 b/d of oil equivalent once reinjection has started.
Miller Energy has spudded a second Fort Payne horizontal well and designated two more for drilling soon. The company has identified 25 sites on 40,000 acres on which it may drill horizontal wells.
The company estimated that it has previously recovered 9% of the original oil in place on its acreage and expects future horizontal wells to greatly increase the recovery factor.

Pelican Rapids voters defeat referendum for school upgrades
PELICAN RAPIDS, Minn. – Voters here defeated a referendum Tuesday night that would have allowed the school district to use $18.5 million in bonds to upgrade the high school and other buildings.
Superintendent Deborah Wanek said by 9:30 p.m., the majority of precincts showed a clear defeat of the proposition with 1,262, or 59 percent, voting "no" and only 845, or 40 percent, voting for the bond.
Wanek said three precincts had not yet reported, but the areas were small and would not make a difference in the outcome.
"We're going to have to step back, re-evaluate and see what's next," Wanek said.
The school district hoped to improve the Pelican Rapids High School, which is now a maze of 11 different levels. The original building was built in 1928 and additions were made in 1953, 1962, 1965, 1972 and 1987.
Upgrades would have included replacing the fine arts auditorium; renovating the gym, locker room and activities spaces; adding a security entrance; updating the student commons and cafeteria; relocating the loading dock; adding a new student drop-off; and renovations of science labs and classrooms.
At the junior high school, classrooms were to be renovated and modernized, with deferred maintenance of windows, flooring and roofs; and lighting improved at existing outdoor facilities.
A plan to build a new high school was handily defeated in a 2005 vote. However, the district did pass a $600 per pupil referendum in 2011.
Wanek said she had heard mixed signals from residents on the vote.
"In my desk, you never know. I hear a lot of concerns and complaints. It's a very difficult thing to judge," Wanek said.
Pelican Rapids has about 470 students in grades 7-12.

Maybe we could offer Kyle Lowry to them for Michael Carter-Williams?
MCW last night - 22pts 7rbs 12ast 9stl. He put up those numbers against the Defending Chumps Miami Heat.
Maybe we could offer Kyle Lowry to them for Michael Carter-Williams?
MCW last night - 22pts 7rbs 12ast 9stl. He put up those numbers against the Defending Chumps Miami Heat.
Say what you want about MCW, the fact is his head is still too small for his body.
Well they won so depending on how you look at it... They're tanking wrong.
In other news, MCW looks like he has the head of a 12 year old. Greg Oden is at the opposite end of the spectrum. I'd like to see his birth certificate.
You have to give a lot of credit to the Sixers.. but the Heat were coming off a back to back, without Wade, and their flight arrived in Philly at 3am.
The Heat bench helped get them back even, but Philly again to their testament beat them in the end. MCW played out of his world.
The Sixers management is still tanking. Giving away an all-star talent for a draft pick and another pick who is injured is proof of that. The players and coaches on a team will usually always try to win though.
The 72-10 Chicago Bulls lost a game to the Raptors too. This isn't world shattering news that a great team lost to an awful team in the regular season.
This thread turned funny fast. I can't believe I haven't noticed his extremely small head before.
I picked him up in my fantasy league, so him and his lil head better perform
Break up the 76ers! MCW should retire right now. Then he would have the highest PER in history, 44.83.
Interesting that DeRozan's PER is 0.93 and Kelly Olynyk at -5.91.
They're 2-0. Philadelphia doesn't know what to do! They can't blow it up anymore but they keep winning! It's a nightmare.
lol Philly is 3-0 after the win against Bulls! They are the best team in the East right now HAHA
They're tanking by winning.
Everything you thought you knew about basketball was a lie. Philly is the best team in the league.
lol this has been a hilarious start to the season. Philly has the best record in the East along with the Pacers and Miami is currently out of the playoffs at 1-2 along with Chicago.

It's safe to say Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is in insane shape. The part-time World Wrestling Entertainment star is also an a-list Hollywood star and looks every bit of a bodybuilder. Johnson has become Hollywood's go-to man for a strong, well-built leading man which is led him to star in the 2014 blockbuster "Hercules". We all know it's all about the work you put into the gym, which from the tweets above, Johnson clearly does, but the other key component is diet. Thankfully for us, Muscle & Fitness talked to Johnson and got the breakdown on the Hollywood star's crazy daily muscle-building diet

Topic: Bulk Mail Send...
I'd like to provide some mailboxes to a customer of my company using iRedMail.
The customer is a middle-range marketing agency whose needs involve a bulk mail send service: they often send about 5000+ mail for contest/lottery/promotion communications. They currently use a marketing software which directly connect to the smtp server (iRedMail in this scenario) to send communications to the selected users.
Will iRedMail be annoyed by a 5000+ mail send sequence? Can I adapt its settings to grant best performances?
Thanks in advance

The Thought Police have arrived.
Sorry we did not pay more attention Mr. Orwell...
Essex police have charged an 18-year-old woman from Clacton, after she allegedly sent a message via her BlackBerry device using its BBM service to incite others to commit thuggery during the England riots that gripped the country for four days. The cops cited the Serious Crime Act 2007 on the unnamed woman's charge sheet. …
Sorry we did not pay more attention Mr. Orwell...
If I were encouraging people to burgle you and stab you in the face, I think you would want me arrested as well. Moron.
Encouraging others to join in a riot is, and always has been, a serious crime. People have died in these riots. The fact that mobile technology makes it easier to do doesn't stop it being a serious criminal act (its an act, not just a thought).
If I saw a riot in full flow, I wouldn't call my mates and invite them to join in. I don't even know anybody who would want to. Nor would I help myself to a new telly. The people who organised this are criminals (even though it took rather less pre-planning than it would have a few years ago).
There have been cases where people appear to have been prosecuted on the basis of the authorities deliberately misinterpreting a tweet which any normal person could see wasn't intended to be threatening. This si something quite different.
Are you seriously saying that incitement to riot is just a bit of free speech?
how police actions in the wake of the riots look as if they will spike the guns of politicians who claim we need "new laws" to deal with this.
who doesn't see what is so special about BBM? I just don't get why it is always mentioned when there are dozens of other similarly available services (encrypted or not) that can do what it does, but are not singled out for the fall of man.
Its quite possible other solutions were used but havent been targetted because they just don't know about them. To be effective they will need to check everywhere as not everyone uses the well known sites like facebook or twitter for message board services.
BBM is free. Which is one very good reason to use it. It is not public access, unlike twitter and facebook. And the encrypted side made people think they were safe from being spied on.
Also I have read that some of the trendy rap band leaders promote it to the kidz.
"Also I have read that some of the trendy rap band leaders promote it to the kidz."
You either read that in 1995 or The Telegraph.
You pay about a fiver a month and get unlimited messages to any other BB, it also has group chat. Jay Z was rapping about his BB in at least 2003, possibly earlier.
But all this blaming of BBM being hard to 'tap' (compared to what.. ? public messages on Twitter?) just keeps triggering alarm bells for me.
I'm a BES (blackberry enterprise server) admin, and yes, this is different from the public BIS, and have some idea of what all can be done with these phones..
Having your criminals flock to one platform they see as safe might be the best thing that could ever happen to 'crime fighters'.
Having a central server to listen in on, from a company which has always been very supportive of law enforcement agencies (without even talking about pushing 'investigative' policies and apps to users) is much more easy to deal with then a million different IM apps like Whatsapp or good old MSN/Google talk/ICQ/AIM.
I could murder... a Capuchino
What have those poor little monkeys ever done to you?
the recipient of the message that ratted on her ? or just casual eavesdropping by the authorities ?
...BBM's wasn't the cream of CD releases, but is it really fair to blame Bruce, Baker and Moore for This Mess We're In all these years later?
Social Networking is Shaka Zulu's revenge. If you want to know how to Tweet, don't ask a chest full of medals, ask a 15 year old from Natal. Oh, and leave the 7 Pounders at home this time, they just slow you down.
As explained in a previous El Reg piece, BBM is being targeted because as far I know it's the only (semi)private messaging system they can access immediately under DPA legislation as BB cache the traffic on their servers, this means the communication is not live and not subject to RIPA.
Police are merely follwing the path of least resistance here, no doubt they're interested in other systems but haven't had the approval to go digging.
Is a warrant from the Home Secretary. Not a big ask.
This El Reg article in fact: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/08/09/bbm_riots/
plain text only
Where did they get those 800 mobile numbers to send the messages? Have they done it legally?
Are they planning to keep those numbers?
only stuffy banker types use Blackberrys. The Android and iOS crowd can't have been wrong about "RIM doesn't get the young people", right?
I must live in a very strange place, because I keep hearing how well the iphone is doing but I'd estimate that easily more than half my student chums have Blackberries (i'm a semi-mature student). They are all over the place; sat in lectures and there's just rows of them on the desks, while iphones are rare, to say the least. The kids do love the BBs apparently.
Everybody's BBMing each other all the time, "It's only a fiver a month!" they cry, "You can send short messages comprised of text on this service!!",
Imagine that!
It's like the 90s again except worse, because this time you can only send these messages to other Blackberries.
... the police came by the information. I'm rather curious as to how they came to know and how the msg information was obtained. Surely they didn't do a 'Murdoch'?
Not so much the devil, as his advocate.
Police to BB: "Here's a warrant. We want all this traffic from these dates that contain these keywords."
BB: "Sure thing. Here you go"
The decision is surprisingly simple when a company is faced with a demand for information to help in police matters: supply the info, or get done for perverting the course of justice.
Most likely a recipient of the BBM BroadCast message took affront at the cry for a riot and informed Crime Stoppers. Someone I know received three BBM BCs trying to start a riot in SE Essex - they informed the Police as they don't agree with it.
What is really concerning me is the way the governement are dealing with this. In the business world we use tools like Root Cause Analsis / Six Sigma to model and understand these problems.
All the government seem to want to do is pick off technologies one by one until they can disrupt communication enought to stop the problem. BBM is not really something new, riots in the 80's they used CB Radio to get organised...
How about understanding the variation in people which causes the problems, a simple General Linear Model based around a good measurement system and interviews with the Good Guys and the Bad Guys would get you your answer.
Stop blaming technology, it is an enabler, not the cause!
".....How about understanding the variation in people which causes the problems....." Sorry, but under the political rules of Say No un-PC Truths, there is no way any of the three main UK parties will want to look at their lifestsyles, outlook or social groupings of those involved.
ISTR the knuckleheads ran a merry dance around 5-0 by simply inventing a simply transposition code, using the telephone number-alpha mappings.
Wonder if some posse is already working with their own code ?
Good job he incited violent civil disorder in a book not online.
On the other hand he didn't do it in a proper book, just a comic, so we should probably round him up - just in case.

THis will be my third child. I have a 2 and 4 year old. I have seen ALOT of posts about having people to help the first few weeks. I dont understand this ... SURE, it is nice to have someone bring a meal over for dinner. But I dont necessarily understand the need to have someoen come over and clean your house, take care of baby, etc.
Yes, having a baby is exhausting - you're tired from lack of sleep. But, the brand new baby sleeps all day! ALL DAY! I didnt know what to do with myself when my first baby was born, I was so bored! My house was clean, I cooked meals, I nursed, snuggled the hell out of my baby, etc...
Im not trying to be rude ... I just dont understand this, except for in the case of a recovering c-section momma who has trouble lifting, bending, etc. Im not being judgemental, Im trying to understand. If you practice having an organized routine from say, NOW, until the baby is born, your house will stay clean, your laundry stays done, etc. I spend 30 min - 1 hour a day using Fly lady ... my house isnt sparkling, but its clean. I homeschool and accomplish good quality time with my kids.
Help me understand what the big deal is?

After the break last week to explore the Karazhan Crypts, we're digging into patch notes of old again this week. This week, we'll examine beta patch 0.10, from way back in September 2004. When reading through these changes, note that this beta patch was released just two months before the launch of the game. As of beta patch 0.10, Blizzard was still making massive, sweeping systems changes -- not unlike the expansions betas. The game's being distressingly far from "finished" in the eyes of players has never necessarily reflected "finished" in the eyes of Blizzard, not even from the beginning.
Some highlights from patch 0.10:
- The professions, skills, and trade skills system was completely revamped.
- High-end content such as Stratholme, Blackrock Spire, and the outdoor zones that contain them were implemented.
- The Deeprun Tram opened.
- Gemology was removed.
- Dwarf mages were removed.

Hmmm .... don't know much about either player.
Source - Click hereToronto Raptors have on their radar two player from Maccabi Tel Aviv, according to One: D'or Fischer and Stephan Lasme.
The Canadian team has already brought from Israeli team two players during the last years Anthony Parker and Maceo Baston.
Fischer has still another year of contract with the Yellows but could leave in case of a proposal from an NBA team while Lasme has played 16 games in the League averaging 5.2ppg with Warriors and Heat.

It's no secret that the Houston Dynamo dominated the early years of the Texas Derby with a team that won MLS Cup in both 2006 and 2007, but Saturday's emphatic 4-1 FC Dallas win was the exclamation point on tides within the state that have been shifting in recent years. Here are a few interesting stats behind FCD's win on Saturday night:
- Saturday's 4-1 FC Dallas victory was the largest for FCD in the regular season Texas Derby history(Houston defeated FCD by three goals in 2007) while the four goals scored is the most FCD has put past the Dynamo in a match.
- Saturday was the first time FCD has beaten Houston in back-to-back games in MLS play.
- The 4-1 win was FCD's first at BBVA Compass Stadium and marked the first time a Western Conference team has won at the Houston stadium.
- FC Dallas is 5-2-2 against their Texas rivals in MLS/USOC since 2009.
- Je-Vaughn Watson became the fourth player in series history to score twice in one Texas Derby game along with Kenny Cooper, Dwayne De Rosario and Cam Weaver.
- Mauro Diaz became the first FC Dallas player to score two assists in one Texas Derby match. Only Brad Davis has achieved the same feat for Houston.

Hi everybody,
First of all congratulations for this awesome library.
I use the HighStock library especially for its range selector.
In my report, I have range buttons "3d", "1w", "1m", "6m", "1y".
The problem is that I don't want the same series for "3d", "1w" and "1m", "6m", "1y". Why? Because I want to draw daily measures if the range is lower than a week, and I want to draw monthly measures if the range is upper.
I'd like to change the serie when the range changes.
How can I put a callback function when the user clicks on a range button ?
Thanks for your answers!


text: Because "thrusters on full" is a dull ass final line to finish off decades of Star Trek. Oh sure I used my apologetics ray gun and made up all kinds of reasons why it was meaningful but I never really believed them. "Yes, but at great personal cost." It's interesting that if Nimoy dies before the next film his last line in Star Trek will be a reference to Spock's death.

Q Gary, here's some additional information about "dumb" citations.
Officer Elon Steers
California Highway Patrol
A Last week's Page 1 column on dumb traffic tickets generated numerous responses, and today police officers weigh in.
Q Motorists don't know what the stop is for, but in many cases it causes them to do a self-check. They slow down a little, they set down the phone, they buckle their seat belts. They are also aware that there is enforcement occurring, which further supports safer habits.
Meanwhile, the individual being stopped may be upset, or they may be polite, courteous, even enjoyable. However, the stop and the ticket isn't always about them. It's about the violation initially observed.
So I issue him or her a citation for not wearing a seat belt. That person then proceeds home, to work or to a social event and they possibly tell everyone how the horrible CHP writes "dumb" tickets. The end result is every person who hears that story is aware that CHP issues tickets for seat belts and hopefully they double-check themselves and make sure to secure their seat belts and those of friends and family. It becomes educational for everyone who heard the story.
Regardless of the reason for the ticket, hundreds of unrelated people are potentially affected and improve their habits, even if for a short time. That is one of the reasons we write what some perceive as dumb tickets. It does influence behavior, and improved behavior saves lives and reduces injury.
Officer Elon Steers
A And …
Q I once pulled a 50-year-old guy over for a seat-belt ticket. He cussed me out, saying, "Don't you have real criminals who you can catch?" He paid the ticket. Later I got a card. The guy told me the following:
"You gave me a seat-belt ticket about a year ago. I was told by an ER doctor that you saved my life. You see, I thought that you were such a jerk for writing me what I considered a petty ticket that I vowed that I would always wear my seat belt so that I never had to deal with you again. Last week I was in a very bad collision. The seat belt saved my life."
John Flynn
Fremont Police Department
A And …
Q Last month I pulled over a driver who was dropping off his daughter at a middle school mid-block. He was upset and literally started beating his fist inside his car when I gave him the ticket. His rationale: We were picking on him.
Officer Traci Rebiejo
Livermore P.D.
A And …
Q I was a motor cop for four years, and wrote thousands of citations. While a warning would almost always have been an option, I didn't give many. Why? No way to track them, and since there are no repercussions (fine, going to court or traffic school and the potential for points on the driving record), I felt they would usually not make a long-term difference in driving habits.
There were violations I would always cite: littering, throwing cigarettes out the window, speeding in a school zone, kids not properly buckled in, etc. I would have a field day if I was still working with cellphone violations!
Ex-Officer Thomas Clark
Santa Clara P.D.
A Now to one my favorite tales.
Q Driver is traveling at 55 mph in a posted 65-mph speed zone in the No. 1 lane texting on his phone on Interstate 238 between Interstate 880 and Interstate 580 recently. I stop him for impeding traffic, texting while driving and having both ears covered by headphones.
He thinks that the ticket is dumb because, after all, he was driving slower than other drivers to be extra careful.
Sgt. Tom Rodrigues
Alameda Cty. Sheriff's Office
A Amazing. And for today's final word:
Q Although the public may not think so, our officers issue quite a few verbal warnings every year. However, sometimes the officer may deem it necessary to issue a citation because he or she realizes the driver is aware of the problem yet refuses to change their driving behavior, get a mechanical violation fixed, or pay registration fees, etc.
Officer Art Montiel
A The CHP issued 1.1 million warnings last year, compared to 2.7 million tickets dished out for the most common offenses.

Hello, all, and welcome to the second running of the Fiction Junction Review Drive 2012 for the Summer Term!
The hard-working members of SPEW (Society for the Proper Evaluation of Writers) scoured the entire archive, category by category, for any story that met the requirements I set. The requirements are as follows:
- Stories validated or updated between December 1, 2010 and November 30, 2011.
- Of these stories, one-shots with two or fewer reviews and
- Chaptered stories with an average of one review or less per chapter.
This is how the activity works: a maximum of eight points will be available for EVERY story listed. You all review the stories listed, and points will be given based on the quality of your review. This is a great opportunity for members to show a bit of house pride and put up some points. Not only that, it gives the authors of these stories the lovely, warm feeling of receiving reviews.
As mentioned, points will be awarded on the quality of the review. A few lines that say what the reader liked about the story will earn one point, whereas a review with detailed, in-depth analysis and constructive criticism will earn up to four points. The scores to these reviews will be edited in to the review posting thread by a mod, and the points earned for reviews posted will be subtracted from the Points Available for the stories reviewed. If a story has less points available than a review has been awarded, you will still receive the full awarded points, as discouraging quality reviewing is rather counter-productive.
Minor rules and notes: If you don't like a story, DO NOT REVIEW AND BRING NOTHING BUT CRITIQUE TO THE TABLE. Nobody likes receiving reviews that are nothing but things the reviewer didn't like. It's okay to bring up points that could be improved, but these points must be accompanied by encouragement and a caring demeanour. Any reviews not complying with this directive will NOT receive points. Basically, if you don't have anything nice to say, then don't.
There is no limit to the number of reviews you can submit nor a limit to the number of points you can receive; it is all determined by your participation level. Ideally, we would like to see each one of the listed stories receive at least one review, but the ultimate goal is to award maximum points for each and every one. Everybody wins!
Anyway, as of right now, the activity is officially open. For a review to receive points, it must be posted and time-stamped for today's date, May 5th 2012, and the end of the activity, which will be July 31st, 2012. Please post your review links with the provided form in the Review Drive Submission Page. The applicable stories are split into General Categories and Romance Categories for your convenience. Any questions are to be posted in this thread.
With that, go forth and review!

Beaufort Memorial Hospital has been recognized as one of the nation's MOST WIRED according to the results of the 2012 Most Wired Survey released in the July issue of Hospitals & Health Networks magazine.
The nation's Most Wired hospitals are leveraging the adoption and use of health information technology (IT) to improve performance in a number of areas, expanding and adopting IT that protects patient data, and optimizes patient flow and communications, according to Health Care's Most Wired 2012 Survey released recently.
"Being named among the Most Wired Hospitals in the nation is truly an honor," says BMH Chief Information Officer and Vice President for Information Technology Ed Ricks. "We are continually adopting new technology to improve our quality of care, patient safety and business processes."
Beaufort Memorial, which has been named to the "Most Wired" list for 10 consecutive years, was given high marks, ranking among only six South Carolina hospitals and 215 hospitals nationwide who met all four core areas required to earn the award. Over the past year the hospital has made significant advances, including:
Ricks points out that the selection criteria is focused on what hospitals are doing to comply with "Meaningful Use" requirements designed to help hospitals provide the highest level of quality and safety. "This award underscores our commitment to investing in solutions that help create efficiencies and keep our focus on delivering quality patient care," he says.
Among the key findings this year:
"As shown by these survey results, hospitals continue to demonstrate how IT not only can be used to improve patient care and safety but it is also a means to improve efficiency," says Rich Umbdenstock, president and CEO of the AHA. "Hospitals receiving Most Wired recognition are truly representative of our nation's hospitals and systems – rural and urban, small and large, teaching and non-teaching, and critical access hospitals geographically dispersed."
Health Care's Most Wired Survey, conducted between Jan. 15 and March 15, asked hospitals and health systems nationwide to answer questions regarding their IT initiatives. Respondents completed 662 surveys, representing 1,570 hospitals, or roughly 27 percent of all U.S. hospitals.
The July H&HN cover story detailing results is available at www.hhnmag.com
