Warning of door-to-door 'rehab' scam
Suffolk Trading Standards is warning people not to buy from doorstep salesmen claiming to be ex-prisoners trying to 'mend their ways'.
Teams known as 'Nottingham Knockers', because they were originally employed there, first appeared in the east of the county but Trading Standards says they last week moved into the Fornham St Martin area.
A spokesperson said: "They can often become aggressive if a sale is refused. They are not involved in any officially recognised offender rehabilitation programme and many do not possess Pedlar's Certificates, which are issued by police and are necessary for salespeople to be legally allowed to sell door-to-door."
Matthew Hicks, Suffolk County Council's cabinet member for environment, public protection and broadband said; "Rogue traders such as the 'Nottingham Knockers' play on the kind nature of residents and very sadly often target our vulnerable residents.
"If you are approached at the door, I urge you not to make a purchase and to report the incident to Trading Standards on 03454 040506 or to Suffolk Police on 101. By doing so you are helping to protect Suffolk residents against rogue traders."
Suffolk Trading Standards' tips for dealing with doorstep traders can be found at https://suffolktradingstandards.wordpress.com
Suffolk residents can request a 'no cold calling' sticker to display at their homes by calling 03454 040506, 9am - 5pm, or emailing firstname.lastname@example.com or via the Suffolk Trading Standards' Facebook page @SuffolkTradingStandards

New Video: Big Hole Hopper Fishing
With a little more time on my hands these days it's been easier to sit down at the computer and edit some video. I also just upgraded the computer to a new-to-me macbook pro courtesy of Seng. Although a couple years old it is still a substantial upgrade from the old cracked macbook that survived grad school.
The angler in the new vid, David, was a great guy to fish with, and was cool with me screwing around with the camera while landing his fish. All of the footage was from one day on the Big Hole, throwing the home brewed Chubby Chernobyl, and less than half of the fish landed were thrown on camera. It was great working on it now that it's cold out and to remember how insane out summer was.

Non Traditional Fishing Dogs: Renny
Here is a submission for non-traditional fishing dogs from Bob and Molly out of Oregon. Renny, a Portuguese Water Dog(named after a boat launch on the Mckenzie), got to join us for a day of hopper fishing on the Big Hole. A great size and well behaved, Renny was an easy addition to the boat.
If you have a non-traditional fishing dog, shoot me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com

Friday Fishing Report- Classmate edition
Last Sunday, my fiancé Lisa and I decided to take a "stretch break" during our drive back to Pullman. It happened to near one of our favorite runs on the Clearwater. An angler was fishing finishing up toward the bottom of the run, so we jumped in behind him. Lisa had hooked two fish here last weekend and wanted to repeat the performance. She was swinging the top half while I plied the waters below. We typically fish this run with 85-90 foot casts and hook fish from mid-river to the hang down. About 30 minutes in I hooked up near the hang down, it jumped twice then spit the hook. Knowing we had to get back on the road soon, I figured I blew my only chance at a fish. Four casts later in mid-swing I felt a pluck, followed by 3 seconds of agony, waiting for the fish to comeback. The loop slipped through my finger, line snapped tight, and my reel started spinning. I leaned heavily into the fish and the "sulk-fest" began. This fish subscribed to the tractor-trailer versus sports car mentality. He made two short runs, slashed at the surface a couple of times, then sounded and anchored himself out in the current. After enough side-pressure this beast relented and allowed Lisa tail him. What a brute, measuring out to 36 inches. Amazingly, the size 6 "Near nuff," a pattern my friend Dave Clark invented this year for the Clearwater, remained firmly pinned in the buck's nose. I unhooked him and held him in the current, shortly after he kicked free and returned to the shadowy depths. Unquestionably, the best pit stop of my life.
Into the backing
Found this awesome sign in the crapper of Tim Tollett's Frontier Anglers. Any of you who have been to the Beaverhead know that Tollett's is an institution in Dillon, and is the place to go for Beaverhead bugs, shuttles and any other local Dillon knowledge.

Mustaches = More Fish
|The fish didn't know what was coming for them
On the eve of Movember, I had one of the best mustaches to ever grace the blue skiff. One would think that it would be adorned by a 60 year old man, but not so much, it was Tom K, a 20 something Ad man from NYC. If you remember this post (one of the most popular posts in the short evoanglers history) Bubba and I rock the 'stache for a month every summer, and had Tom showed up and the mustache trifecta aligned, who knows what would have happened to local trout populations. As things were, Tom (a semi-annual fly fisherman) spent two days in my boat chucking meat to the bank of the Beav, and going into vacuum mode on any brown trout that got in his way. More proof of the direct relationship between mustaches and big fish.

Friday Fishing Report
|Chris with a great hopper eater
Only a couple more of these left for the year, and then back to the backyard flow, and random river photos instead of fishing reports.
SUmmer officially ended three days ago. From last friday till today I spent 4 days throwing hoppers and droppers, wearing shorts, and cracking cold ones at the end of the day and followed it up with streamers, bobbers, fleece and coffee. We were certainly lucky to have a hell of an indian summer this year, and any day I can wear shorts in October is a bonus.
|John with one out of the THICK foam.
The end of last week I got to spend three days with John VanLeeuwen and his wife Chris. John is the creator of the Depth Skru bobber, which I was fortunate enough to test for him over the last 6 months. After holding his own on the first day, John watched Chris put on an absolute clinic on the lower Big Hole, catching enough that she decided to boat ride shortly after lunch. Chris followed that performance up by teaching the upper beav fish a thing or two about her husbands outstanding products. John's products (which I will do a better review of shortly) are going to be available from Idylwilde this spring, and guarantee will revolutionize the type of bobber you see being fished on your local river.

New Video: June on the Big Hole
It's been a few months, but I finally got the time finish this project. The footage is from two days on the Big Hole in June, when it was supposedly blownout but was in fact fishing outstanding. We bobber fished the whole time, and the fish in the film are ones we connected with and had slow enough water in to run the camera. A great couple of days for sure. I threw it up on Vimeo last week with the intention of launching it here this week, and the Orvis Blog picked it up in the meantime for their Friday Filmfest, which is awesome!
I've been running the GoPro more as well, and as my season winds to an end there will be more video coming out (assuming my computer doesn't die from the abuse).

Educators know it's important to get students to engage in qhigher-order thinking.q But what does higher-order thinking actually look like? And how can K-12 classroom teachers assess it across the disciplines? Author, consultant, and former classroom teacher Susan M. Brookhart answers these questions and more in this straightforward, practical guide to assessment that can help teachers determine if students are actually displaying the kind of complex thinking that current content standards emphasize. Brookhart begins by laying out principles for assessment in general and for assessment of higher-order thinking in particular. She then defines and describes aspects of higher-order thinking according to the categories established in leading taxonomies, giving specific guidance on how to assess students in the following areas: * Analysis, evaluation, and creation * Logic and reasoning * Judgment * Problem solving * Creativity and creative thinking Examples drawn from the National Assessment of Educational Progress and from actual classroom teachers include multiple-choice items, constructed-response (essay) items, and performance assessment tasks. Readers will learn how to use formative assessment to improve student work and then use summative assessment for grading or scoring. Aimed at elementary, middle, and high school teachers in all subject areas, How to Assess Higher-Order Thinking Skills in Your Classroom provides essential background, sound advice, and thoughtful insight into an area of increasing importance for the success of students in the classroom--and in life.I once observed a 5th grade class where students were studying colonial America and events leading up to the American Revolution. In groups of four, they wrote skits. Each skit needed to have four characters from the period (one for eachanbsp;...

It is nice to finally get a game that tells the story of World War II the way it truly happened… complete with the often-forgotten elements of zombies, werewolves and vampires. Enter the unique and often bizarre world of Operation: Darkness for the Xbox 360 by Atlus.{ad}
My first impressions of the game were very dismal, noticing immediately that graphics had a very PS2 quality and are far below the standards of the current gen. Despite this, once the player gives the game a chance to develop a rhythm and unfold its strange story, the title begins to put its hooks in you.
The gameplay consists of grid and turn based strategy fare, think Final Fantasy Tactics with a military theme and you've got the gist of the mechanics. Players loot dead bodies and level up just like any traditional RPG, and adding this dynamic to a WW2 game is a unique twist.
It is the unique and somewhat bizarre feel of this game that gives it its appeal, with stories being told between levels in a fashion much like Ace Attorney or other games of that ilk on the DS. Cutscenes consist of still anime-inspired drawings accompanied with text and voice-overs that are well-acted.
While the anime art is well done, the in-game graphics engine is of a very low quality compared to modern standards. They aren't so bad that it makes the game unplayable, but the textures and animation definitely feel last-gen. The title will occasionally surprise you with some nice smoke and explosion effects, however. The destructible environment effects, such as trees and houses being shattered by artillery fire, are also very well done and adds a lot of punch to the experience.
Also adding punch is the extreme amount of personality this game exudes, from the story as a whole down to the characters and how they are presented in the art style. The game really goes the extra mile to make the player feel connected to and care about each character. Several times during my experience I repeated a level due to the death of a nonessential member of my team. The game could go on without that character, but I had an extreme desire to keep the whole team together.
While the core gameplay mechanic is solid, and the game excels in telling its story to the gamer, there are some issues that hold this it back from being a truly great title. The camera is horrid, constantly fighting with the player trying to get a good look at the battlefield, or trying to line up an angle of attack to an enemy.
The ability to zoom the camera in and out of the battlefield would have added a lot to the strategy capabilities of the title, and the manner in which the camera attempts to reset to an isometric view no matter where you move it made me want to pull my hair out. As if this weren't enough, the view of what you need to see at any given moment can be completely blocked by buildings and trees, forcing you to move blind sometimes.
Cutscenes cannot be skipped, which can be annoying when having to repeat difficult levels numerous times. Another problem is that items bought between levels cannot be bought in bulk, which gets irritating after a while. These aren't major issues in and of themselves, but combine to create a feeling that the game is not as streamlined as it could have been, and leaves the player wanting for a little more polish in these areas, especially where the camera is concerned.
Still, its not often players get to re-imagine a WW2 battlefield complete with vampire and werewolf opponents, along with Jack the Ripper fighting for the Allies tossed in for good measure. It all adds up to a storyline that is truly bizarre, but scores major points for putting a unique spin on the tired WW2 video game paradigm – something the industry desperately needs.
The pace of the game is decidedly slow, and some levels take well over an hour to complete. But if you can submit to the slow tempo of the game, it can be very rewarding and addictive. Technical problems mentioned above do hold down the potential of the game, but overall it's a worthy experience that does become engaging once the story begins to hit its stride.
This is definitely a worthy purchase for 360 gamers looking for a solid and lengthy strategy title; or for gamers who are looking for something unique and different to play.

There's no substitute for experience, and under the gentle guardianship of peripatetic slide guitarist Ry Cooder, the Cuban all-star band Buena Vista Social Club shows off a couple eons' worth in this seductive performance-interview doc. Wim Wenders' pic reps not only some of the sexiest music on the planet, played by the antic musicians who refined it, but the director's most orthodox and warm work in the form to date. Prospects are muy bueno down the line: Most everyone with a pulse will want to get into this club.
With a name taken from a long-defunct Havana hangout (opinions differ on where exactly it was), the idea to round up as many of the city's old-guard musicians as could be located was first hatched in the 1970s by the prolific Cooder — who in the course of a 35-year career has done sublime work with Wenders on the director's "Paris, Texas" and "The End of Violence." But it wasn't until March 1996 that he finally got a group (some of whom hadn't played their instruments in more than a decade) into Havana's Egrem Studios to cut the self-named record that subsequently appeared on numerous critical lists and won the Grammy for best tropical Latin performance. (The album has sold nearly a half-million copies in the U.S. alone).
Exactly two years later, with Joerg Widmer's sinewy Steadicam circling the room, BVSC was back in Havana with Cooder to record a solo record behind vocalist Ibrahim Ferrer, whom Cooder calls "the Cuban Nat King Cole." Intercut with these laid-back sessions are equally relaxed interviews with the band's major players on eye-catching locations and highlights from their July shows in Amsterdam.
There's 90-year-old guitarist Compay Segundo, who has five children and is confidently "working on the sixth"; showboating pianist Ruben Gonzalez (whose stage moves at 80 would put most contempo bands to shame); Barbarito Torres, who in concert stops the show by playing the guitar, behind his back (and at 42 is the youngster of the group); and comically histrionic singer Manuel "Puntillita" Licea, who makes the most of a feature vocal that begins with the line "Tula's bedroom's gone up in flames."
Wisely, Wenders lets the music and the sprightly people who make it speak for themselves, although the director's ongoing fascination with the urban environment is in top form as the camera serenely cruises the streets of Havana, often at a velvety dusk.
Tech credits are superb, with pic's unique pastel look seemingly the result of oversaturating the Havana interview material and undersaturating the shadowy Dutch show. Widmer's supple lensing is supplemented by Robby Mueller's concert photography and Lisa Renzler's digital Beta footage on the streets of New York. The shimmering Dolby SRD sound mix makes the film a must for the best possible venues and gives the effect of being in the hall for this celebration of spirit with these remarkable, eternally young musicians.

MANHATTAN, New York (WABC) --Police are investigating the bizarre theft of more than $15,000 in Rogaine and other products from Duane Reade stores across Manhattan, and they're hoping surveillance images will lead to arrests.
The spree began on May 1 at a location on Amsterdam Avenue and has included at least 10 incidents in which suspects open a locked display case with a key and make off with items in bulk.
Items stolen include:
--More than 82 boxes of over-the-counter medication
--More than 44 boxes of Rogaine
--More than 54 boxes of Crest Whitening Strips
--Razors and razor blades
"It makes no sense," NYPD Chief of Detectives Robert Boyce said. "From time to time, we get these patterns of this stuff. Because we have good video, we put them out on the evening news, we generally have them identified in the next week. That will continue as long as we have the density of population in this city."
The first suspect is described as a black male in his mid 20s to mid 30, about 6-foot-3 with slim build and cornrows, last seen wearing a dark-colored sweater and a dark-colored baseball cap.
The second suspect is also described as a black male in his mid 20s to mid 30s, approximately 5-foot-9 with a slim build, last seen wearing a white and blue plaid shirt and a dark colored baseball cap.
Anyone with information in regards to this incident is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or for Spanish, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782).

Though the history of terrorism stretches back to the ancient world, today it is often understood as a recent development. Comprehensive enough to serve as a survey for students or newcomers to the field, yet with enough depth to engage the specialist, The Routledge History of Terrorism is the first single-volume authoritative reference text to place terrorism firmly into its historical context. Terrorism is a transnational phenomenon with a convoluted history that defies easy periodization and narrative treatment. Over the course of 32 chapters, experts in the field analyze its historical significance and explore how and why terrorism emerged as a set of distinct strategies, tactics, and mindsets across time and space. Chapters address not only familiar topics such as the Northern Irish Troubles, the Palestine Liberation Organization, international terrorism, and the rise of al-Qaeda, but also lesser-explored issues such as: American racial terrorism state terror and terrorism in the Middle Ages tyrannicide from Ancient Greece and Rome to the seventeenth century the roots of Islamist violence the urban guerrilla, terrorism, and state terror in Latin America literary treatments of terrorism. With an introduction by the editor explaining the bookas rationale and organization, as well as a guide to the definition of terrorism, an historiographical chapter analysing the historical approach to terrorism studies, and an eight-chapter section that explores critical themes in the history of terrorism, this book is essential reading for all those interested in the past, present, and future of terrorism.50 Despite their aura of ease, the military guides a like all technical manuals a outlined processes that were much more ... as a scientific genius, made primitive (though murderous) booby trap bombs using gunpowder, batteries, and lamp wire.

I met Kitty about ten years ago. I was working on a consulting gig at a medical association in Chicago. She was also working there as a consultant, but she was my project manager.
When I first met her, I was impressed. Kitty is one of those "larger than life" types. She has been all over, seen and done quite a few things, grew up in a well-to-do home, and was still incredibly down-to-earth. She's a bit older than I am, but we still bonded and became good friends. Her sense of humor was wicked, and we found that working together never really seemed like "work" at all.
She turned out to be one of the best bosses that I ever had. If I told her that something was beyond the powers of anyone lacking god-like abilities, she would take care of it, deflecting the negative energy from the management and allowing me breathing room to get the job done. She also stood behind me when I told the owner of the consulting company for which I worked that he was an imbecile for trying to sell customers products that they didn't need and couldn't use.
She has also turned out to be one of the best friends I've ever had. When our respective consulting assignments ended, we went off in different directions professionally, but we stayed close. When I found out that I was moving to Texas, I was pretty sure that the relationship would fizzle out, but it hasn't. She comes to visit as often as she can afford, using Texas as a welcome escape from her hectic life in Chicago. She has more or less adopted the little grump as one of her own, and the little grump looks forward to her visits as much as she does Christmas.
Several months ago, when Kitty visited, she fell in love with my Crafty Alien Clam. There was something about it that made her laugh whenever she looked at it. She begged me then to make one for her. (She knits too, but her forte is beautiful cabled sweaters, not fiddly felted toys.)
A few weeks ago, she sent an email asking if I could have a visitor this weekend. From what she had said, she sounded tired and disgusted with her job, so I started making plans to give her a weekend full of laughs.
Step #1: Purchase wine. LOTS of wine! I've stopped into two of the WineStyles in the area. In one of them, I found a bottle of wine that I knew that she would appreciate. After all, one of the reasons her job sucks so much right now is that her manager can't handle a woman who actually knows what she's doing.
Step 2: Make her a clam of her very own. I finished this one right after she got here.
The new one is the one on the left. The other is the first one that I made. (They both look a bit sloshed! Could it be because I was drinking wine when I finished it?)
Step 3: Yarn therapy! Kitty loves to go to the Shabby Sheep when she comes to town, so of course, I had to take her there. Thanks to the GPS on my Blackjack II, we were able to find the shop the first time, with no detours! It was the first time ever!
If you've never been to the Shabby Sheep, it's well worth the trip! We poked around the shop for a bit, found more things that we wanted to buy than we can afford, and ended up leaving with large amounts of yarn. (OK… INTENSE fiber therapy.) She bought the pattern and yarn for my Christmas present, a beautiful cabled sweater from the Sublime "Exquisitely Soft Organic Merino Wool" book. She let me pick the yarn and the color… a gorgeous wine color. The yarn is, as advertised, exquisitely soft. I can't wait until Christmas!
Step #4: Mama Mia! Because Kitty has been so busy, she hasn't had a chance to see a movie in months. I knew that she would love Mama Mia. I was worried at first that it wouldn't still be in theaters, but it turns out that the "Sing Along" version was just released. Much to my surprise, the theater was packed! I'm happy to report that the movie had its intended effect. Kitty admitted that she hadn't laughed so hard in years. (The movie is humorous, but the singing and occasionally dancing audience made it even more fun!)
After that, we went to dinner at P. F. Changs. Yum! We had dinner and then brought home a Great Wall of Chocolate desert to share with the little grump. Needless to say, there were no grumpy women in the house after that!
Step #5: Hubby becomes house boy! My hubby can be an enabler at times. This weekend, he dutifully dug out the corkscrew and has kept the wine glasses full in the evening.
Kitty's visit isn't done. Today, we're doing steps 5 (brunch at La Madeleine's), 6 (knitting with the Sisters of the Wool), and 7 (house boy becomes grill boy). Hopefully when I send her off to her plane tomorrow, she will be relaxed and ready to deal with the idiots in her life again!

Fleisher said he spent more than 700 hours interviewing 564 randomly chosen inmates at dozens of institutions across the country. He said he never met anyone who claimed to be a victim of sexual violence.
"Prison rape worldview doesn't interpret sexual pressure as coercion," he wrote. "Rather, sexual pressure ushers, guides or shepherds the process of sexual awakening."
The two-year study, commissioned by the U.S. Justice Department for $939,233, has come under withering attack from other experts. The department has not endorsed the study, saying Fleisher has yet to turn over his data for closer examination.
Oh Boy, Oh Boy, a Link!
In the 1999 training manual of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, the agency acknowledged that, on average, "three out of 10 newly admitted offenders will be forcibly raped within 48 hours."
The Missing Link
Prison rape has become a hidden epidemic. Some�experts estimate that between 300,000 to 600,000 men and boys are victimized every year. Dr. Cindy Struckman-Johnson, who did a comprehensive study of the Nebraska prison system, found that 22 percent of male inmates acknowledged being pressured or forced into sex acts. A horrifying 25 percent of this group say they endured gang rapes, leading many inmates to enter into a "consensual" relationship with another inmate, who then protects him from far-worse gang rapes. Sexual assault and forced prostitution thus become a second form of punishment, especially for young offenders.
These gruesome statistics are all too personal for me. I've visited inmates in over 600 prisons and talked with many rape victims; I've seen fresh blood on cell floors where an attack had just occurred.
Heriberto "Eddie" Seda waited 35 years to have his first romantic kiss. It happened last spring, when Eddie pressed his mouth through the three-inch-wide space between the prison bars and found fellow Attica inmate Synthia-China Blast, a preop male-to-female transsexual, No. 97A0308.
"It was weird, I thought he was going to eat my lips," Synthia recalls. "I'd read a lot of books about serial killers, and I didn't trust him, like he might bite my face off or something." But instead, Eddie Seda, known as New York's copycat Zodiac Killer, started shaking. "I felt like I was 11 and having my first kiss with a bowl of Jell-O, because he didn't know how to kiss for nothing. He was a virgin," adds Synthia, 29. Then she laughs. "Let's just say he's a pro now."
Seda has been locked up since 1996 for killing three people and trying to kill five others. The only person who has ever visited him in the maximum-security prison is his mother, Gladys; and before his incarceration, he says, "I had no friends. I had nobody." After seven years behind bars, he was lonely, he says, and couldn't help but be attracted to Synthia, with her tweezed eyebrows and her handmade dresses. He was so taken with her that he was willing to overlook the fact that she was a former drug dealer and Latin King gang member—the exact type of person he'd wanted to extirpate from his Brooklyn neighborhood.

My money is on total and complete fraud, on the part of the author. This guy can't possibly expect people to take him seriously. Every convict, every prison guard, every common schlub on the street can tell you rape is a serious problem in American prisons. Evidence speaking to that fact has circulated for decades.

Customer testimonial from David Spratt of The Crown Estate talking about the benefits of Qube Horizon property management software. The Crown Estate is a unique organization.
The Crown Estate is a unique organization. The job is layed down by parliament. It has a very diverse portfolio offices and shops in London and farms and forestry throughout the UK, as well as residential property and half the foreshore of the United Kingdom and the whole of the sea bed.
I am the Senior Business Analyst, so what I have to do is look at the business processes that we have and try and make sure that we can provision some tools that will help the business transact, and keep an eye on the future and make sure that we've got systems, mainly IT systems, but it could be just working smarter, ready for when they ask for it.
The Crown Estate have had a long association with Qube Global Software and the forerunners of the Qube Global Software for the Horizon product. They originally commissioned a bespoke solution some 20 years ago and we've taken iterations of that product currently into the Horizon form we have and now we are planning the next implementation.
We look for a system that is very adaptable for all the various transactions we have to do. So, it has to be able to behave for an agricultural setting, it has to do all of the maintenance, and all of the rental flows in fish farms, or mines, or wind farms, so we need something that has many facets and can be used at a distance because we have a ring of managing agents throughout the UK.
What we like about the software is that we can bend it slightly to what we want to do or within a standard product, so we can answer what the business really wants.
Horizon for us sits within the rest of the business systems. We have a separate accounting system, we have separate GIS and mapping systems – Horizon is one finger in that whole glove.
We are currently rolling out the very latest version of Horizon and we are taking a completely standard product – we don't bespoke things anyone. We are also implementing the Planet product, starting with our Windsor operation, where they need a product that will help the estate management function.

Here are my three thoughts on the Nets' 97-96 loss to the Pacers in Indianapolis Saturday night:
1. The Nets have played bigger teams three times in the past week, and each time they suffered the same fate of giving up control of the glass.
There's not much the Nets can do about this when they're employing a small-ball lineup that features Paul Pierce at power forward – particularly when they're going up against power forwards such as the Thunder's Serge Ibaka and the Pacers' David West.
But the Nets are going to have to change something if they want to be able to contend with a team with a big frontline, after getting destroyed on the glass by the Thunder and Pacers the past two games.
Players and coaches offered various theories after the game – Nets coach Jason Kidd said his team needs to rebound as a group, Joe Johnson said the guards need to help more, Deron Williams said it was just a matter of finishing off plays by securing rebounds, and Kevin Garnett attributed it in part to defensive rotations – and all have a point. Whatever the reason, the Nets need to solve it quickly.
2. Though the Nets have struggled over their last few games, Shaun Livingston has continued to be one of the bright spots. Livingston led the team in scoring for a second straight game, going 10-for-18 and finishing with 24 points while pairing effectively with Williams in the starting backcourt.
The two-point-guard lineup, rounded out by Johnson, Pierce and Garnett, has looked the best to the naked eye since the Nets went small, and again looked effective Saturday night. That's because it allows Livingston to take the toughest perimeter defensive matchup because of his length, and it contains a pair of ball-handlers to allow the Nets multiple options when they want to get into their offense and begin running sets.
It also frees up Williams to play off the ball, which is something the Nets like to do to help him find his shooting touch – which would be a good thing, given his admitted confidence issues. Now that Williams is back in the starting lineup permanently, expect a lot more of the two-point-guard look.
3. If there was any doubt about whether Mason Plumlee or Reggie Evans should be the third-string center behind Garnett and Andray Blatche – or the backup when either is out – Plumlee showed why he should be the clear choice.
This isn't a knock on Evans, who has carved out a long, productive NBA career by becoming an elite rebounder despite having few other skills. Plumlee has several inches of height on Evans – giving the Nets a real shot-blocking presence at the rim – and he's proven to be an adept finisher around the rim.
Plumlee finished with six points and four blocked shots, and while he did make several classic rookie mistakes – including committing five fouls and messing up a couple of defensive rotations – the good he did on the floor outweighed the bad. And, if Blatche is unable to play again Monday against the Sixers in Brooklyn because of his bruised hip, then Plumlee should be Kidd's choice to take Blatche's minutes.

I just can't let up
And won't slow down
Tormenting me, something way deep down
Triggered raw emotion
Coupled with some fear
This liquid courage, madness comes near
Lighting up the place
From town to town
No daemons out tonight
Won't you join this exorcism?
Fire burns my soul tonight
Release the anger
The spirits move your soul
You got the power, loss of control
Let this be your introduction
To the power that be
Let's shake the core of what you used to be
Join us in our exorcism
Spirits call on you tonight
Won't you join this exorcism, as the night falls on us tonight?
Lyrics taken from http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/v/voodoo_glow_skulls/exorcism.html

It's been some time coming, but US company Bose is to release its first ever single-ear Bluetooth headset, that will hook up to a mobile phone, in the beginning of 2011.
The device, simply titled the Bose Bluetooth Headset, uses proprietary audio technologies designed by the manufacturer, such as an enhanced version of its TriPort acoustic headphone structure, optimised for speech reproduction, and Adaptive Audio Adjustment - which measures incoming speech and background noise, and adjusts voice levels automatically.
It will also be compatible with Bluetooth 2.1 devices, and those that work on earlier standards.
The headset also comes with the company's new StayHear tips, as seen on its current range of in-ear buds, and has an easy to reach on/off slider, plus volume and call buttons rather than requiring sequences of presses to perform functions, like with some rivals.
Coming in a protective case, and with three different tip sizes (small, medium and large), the Bose Bluetooth Headset will be in stores from 10 January 2011, costing £119.
Use a Bluetooth headset for calls? If so, what type? Let us know in the comments below...

Amazing case! Thanks for sharing Jörg
Hello Pablo!
That case was very interesting. It was a
PCI-related complication (the patient was in cardiac catheter lab 1
hour before when haemodynamic instability started)
I tried to tap
for aspiration (echo-guided puncture) the pericardial effusion, but
there was no location where I could reach the pericardial effusion
without possibility of injury the liever (the patient was highly
loaded with antiaggregatorical drugs like prasugrel,
acetylsalicyl-acid and tirofiban and anticoagulation (UFH, aPTT >
So I didn´t do the tap and colleagues of cardiac
surgery took the pressure of the heart by cardiac operation with
implantation of two pericardial tubes. They foundnNo perforation of
ventricle, no dissection of coronary arteries.
After that the
patient survived and was dismissed from icu after 7 days.
/>Best wishes,
Hello Jorg:
Very nice subcostal view. Large effusion and
cardiac tamponade.
What happens?

This past weekend I knew I had to hunker down and do that thing everyone does at this time of year...taxes. What made it less painful was that I made time to meet with some girlfriends. We call ourselves "the joy luck club" from the novel by Amy Tan. If you don't know the novel it is about the lives of various women who are all children of Chinese immigrant parents. Anyway, it seemed like a fitting nickname for our group. We like to get together about once a quarter to eat and talk about life. We've known each other since university and it's great to see how are lives develop.
Sunday afternoon a bunch of team stic girls and friends came over to help me with making swaps for the stampin up event. It's a swap making party!! It's casual and fun and very productive. We finished 72 swap cards in just 90 minutes. Many hands make light work as they say!
I love how downtown salt lake gets all ready for the influx of demonstrators. There were stampin up signs all over the place. It sure makes me feel welcome!
Mindy and I will have a chip tasting party.
Tomorrow is the home office tour and Mindy and I both decided to get spa appointments. It's going to be fun! I'm having a great time and On stage hasn't even officially started yet! Can't wait!

It could dive deeper than any other submarine, and when it reached the ocean floor, the one-of-a-kind Navy vessel could roll on wheels with lights illuminating the depths outside its windows.
The nuclear-powered NR-1 was launched in Groton in 1969 and was one of the most secretive vessels in the U.S. undersea force.
It was known primarily as a research vessel, but it also carried out a range of Cold War military missions that remain secret today. Veterans who served aboard the 140-foot-long sub say it was one of the most fascinating assignments of their careers, but not even their wives know all the details.
The NR-1 was taken out of service in 2008, and the Navy has collected pieces of it for an exhibit at a submarine museum in Groton.

reservE Your Child's party now!
Three party options down below (Basic, Deluxe, X-Treme) and three Saturday time slots to choose from (10:30am, 12:30pm, 2:30pm).
You bring the birthday cake suitable for cutting in half with a samurai sword. We handle everything else: E-mail invitations, e-mail confirmation, e-mail reminder, online activity waiver, party set-up, sizzle time game, the 30-inch pizza, juice boxes, real kung fu class, thunder paper, the board breaking for birthday child, the cake cutting ceremony with "real" samurai sword, the coffee from Kick Butt Café (for X-treme option), goodie bags and the party clean-up. :-)
Efficient for parents, fun for kids. Party starts on time and then ends 75 minutes later. Parents should stay, from start to finish, because all parents get to participate, with their child, in the kung fu class. All party participants should arrive no later than 15 minutes before the start time. Birthday childs' family should arrive 30 minutes early to set up any extra food, snacks, drinks or decorations you want to bring. Plenty of parking right out front.
Book at least 3 weeks in advance as preferred times & days go FAST!
Note: All party participants must be 4 years old or older unless the party is for a child turning 4. This is because 3 year olds and younger risk getting knocked over by older kids during the activities.
Adam Boyd
Instructor Richey took care of everything - (but the cake), invites, decorations, party favors, planning activities, cleaning up! The kids had fun, were entertained, and we had the chance to visit with our friends whose kids were attending my son's birthday party. It's a no brainer.
Erin Haraway
It was so much better than I anticipated. I avoided having to throw a birthday party for 8 years. This year, she begged with puppy eyes. She chose her Kung Fu school as the spot. The school sets up everything including invites, decorations, ordering pizza, providing juice boxes, coffee for the parents, goody bags and activities. There were organized activities that kept the kids busy and active the entire time. They enjoyed some so much they changed "One more time! One more time!". The parents even got to be involved - the kids got to practice punches towards their parents holding a target, and then the parents got to throw the punches while the kids practiced a block. At the end, the comment I heard over and over again was it was the best party they had ever attended - and at this age, we've all been to A LOT.
Marco G.
We had our five-year old daughter's birthday party there and it was perfect. The kids thoroughly enjoyed the experience (tons of laughing & running), they exercised and got to try something new. The staff was excellent with the kids and Instructor Richey did an excellent job leading the class and interacting with the kids. Two big thumbs up!
Stephanie J. Baker
The kids had a great time, but more importantly, they teach children about manners, respect, and good judgement. I was impressed with their ability to keep 20 little 5 years olds engaged in this mature content. Nice!

Illinois, Adams County issue diseased fish warning
Wed, 12 Feb 2014 21:44:30 GMT —
Health officials in Illinois and Adams County issued a warning about buffalo fish taken from the Mississippi River.
The Illinois and Adams County health departments issued the warning Wednesday for anyone who purchased buffalo fish from Fresh Farms International Market in Niles, Illinois after January 30.
Two reported instances of Haff disease are attributed to the fish. The skeletal disease is thought to be caused by a toxin sometimes found in buffalo fish in the Mississippi River.
The rare disease can cause anything from muscle pain to acute kidney failure.
Officials say you should discard the fish and if you believe you're ill, contact your doctor or local health department.

Seen imanari fight a couple of times, but in terms of leg locks I would go with Palhares as not only being better but definitely way stronger. Just look at the guy he aint that tall but for his height he is all muscle, and he does have the technical skills as well.

I'm speculating perhaps some of her behavioral problems stem from her childhood brain damage.
And yes Ronda is a far more successful Athlete than I'll ever be, I'll console myself by being the much better Human being.

You dreamed of a bigger office. You're proud of your bigger office. You deserved that bigger office. It's only right that it reflects your personality and your personal brand. Now say you plan to open a restaurant; since customers will never see your office, the only thing it should reflect is "cheap." Start-up funds should never be spent on anything that will not touch the customer.Besides, you'll be too busy chasing customers to worry about whether your office aligns with your personal brand.

Maverick is very much a modern-day gunslinger who has established a national reputation as one of the toughest competitors in the business today.
Kansas City, Mo. (PRWEB) December 08, 2016
NWL STL has signed national wrestling star Moonshine Mantell, who will compete under the name Maverick as part of the terms of his multiyear deal with the League. Maverick will make his NWL STL debut at the promotion's first live event at the Casa Loma Ballroom on January 12.
"Maverick is very much a modern-day gunslinger who has established a national reputation as one of the toughest competitors in the business today," says Travis Bowden, VP of marketing for the NWL, who oversaw the signing during a press conference at NWL Headquarters in downtown KC. "The League commends NWL STL for continuing to look beyond the Midwest to bring some of the country's top wrestlers into the League."
The 6-foot, 240-pounder from Austin, Texas, says he has set his sights on becoming the League's first St. Louis heavyweight wrestling champion.
"I signed with NWL STL for the opportunity to become a champion in what I feel is the fastest-growing wrestling promotion in the United States," says Maverick, who has patterned his wrestling style after such fellow Lone Star State greats as Terry Funk and "Stone Cold" Steve Austin. "I'll always be loyal to Texas, but I am looking forward to establishing myself in the great city of St. Louis and competing in what has traditionally been one of the best wrestling cities in the world."
During the press conference, NWL STL also announced that tickets are now on sale for its inaugural event at the Casa Loma Ballroom, where the promotion will be running shows every other Thursday beginning January 12. Fans can reserve seats now at http://www.ticketfly.com/org/7326.

When Peter White headed for the concessions stand at halftime of a women's basketball game at the Olympic Park outside of London, he found himself in quite a quandary.
"Meat pies are all that they had," says the Lynn University sports management sophomore from Weston, Mass. "I mean, I like steak and I like pie -- but not together."
Such is the dilemma faced by countless tourists who have descended upon London for these Summer Games. Stadium concessions at Olympic venues have varied from odd but fascinatingly delicious to downright bizarre and bordering on, well, kind of gross.
At Eton Dorney near Windsor, site of the rowing competition, a few brave souls have munched on soft-roll sandwiches filled with gammon, a traditional holiday food in some English households. (Gammon is -- hold onto your forks, everyone -- the hind legs of a pig that are soaked in brine and cured.) Purchasers of vegetable pizzas in Olympic Park have found their cheesy preparations covered in a layer of... corn kernels. At Earl's Court, site of indoor volleyball, few have dared to touch the chopped lamb pocket pies, as the food sat in their warmer cases. And just outside the ExCel Center, home to boxing and other events, lovers of french fries have been able to top their "chips" with baby-food-style mashed peas. No, we're not kidding.
To be sure, London has never been well-known around the world for its native culinary brilliance, perhaps short of tasty and filling pub food. But as the world arrived on this capital city, some fans have wondered why stadiums are offering concessions that are not even enjoyed by many locals.
"They do have some strange items of concessions -- even for us Brits," says Sarah Willis from London. "Nothing that I would enjoy. I guess it will be fish and chips for me from now on at the Olympics."
The offerings have not been without at least some successes. As predictable, the indigenous crispy cod fillets are top-notch. At the city-sized Olympic Park, choices include grilled prawns, jacket potatoes and varied vintages of champagne. Weighty but tasty breakfast sandwiches of meats, egg and cheese on cibatta bread can be found at Horse Guard Parade, host of the beach volleyball matches.
"Some of it is really heavy food, but I must admit that it does have a lot of variety and it is tasty," says George Cheng of New Zealand.
That is, when the food is available. Some Olympic venues simply have run out of concessions, seemingly unprepared for the mass of people that have sold out most every Games event in the London area. A local rowing club reported that, on one occasion, Eton Dorney's concession stands ran out of food by 11:00 a.m., some two hours before the first race was set to begin. Even tap water is now in extreme demand at Olympic venues. On the fifth day of the Games, long and slow lines for access to public water fountains at Wembley Stadium snaked throughout the hallways of the massive soccer venue.
"Let's hope that the local organizing committee can get these logistics sorted out quickly," says Emma Synnott of the Commission for a Sustainable London 2012. "So that the return of drinking water from the tap goes down in history as a triumph and not a damp squib."
Of course, there is always McDonald's. The official Games sponsor has constructed a pair of Walmart-sized restaurants in Olympic Park. Day and night, tens of thousands of patrons have made their ways to the Mickey D's counters.
The locals, meanwhile, continue to encourage us to have some culinary patience and give everything a try. Needless to say, we find some dishes far more appealing than others.
"Bangers and mash is a tradition in the U.K.!," says Carl Sanders of Surrey. "Come on and step out of your box, mate! Bangers and mash is bomb wicked!"
We think that he means that it is good. But we will leave that for another day.
Students in Lynn University sports management's "Olympic Games Experience" class, currently in London for the Summer Games, contributed to this story. Follow Prof. Ted Curtis and Dr. Chad Barr on Twitter at @LynnUSportsMgmt and on Facebook at LynnSportsManagement.
