If everyone's supposedly got a soul mate, we'll venture a guess to say they've also got a closet-mate, too. You know — that one person out there whose picture-perfect wardrobe hits all the right notes for you? Whose accessories are a painfully perfect mix of butterfly leather staples and a variety of timeless heels? She's the owner of the one closet you'd simply kill to raid, and for us, all that belongs to Bay Area beauty Julia Engel.
The inspiration-maker posts her crisp, clean looks on her blog, Gal Meets Glam, but took some time off from being professionally chic to traipse through her favorite SF hood. She gives us the downlow on what's hip, where we should eat, and why we should always turn to layering. Click through to get a hefty dose of what's-what in the Bay Area, and save a lil' room for some gelato on the way home, too.

Moa Trek Small Group Tours
Small group tours can off-the-beaten-track itineraries that include bucket lise activities, fine 4 star hotels, world class food, wine & private lunches.
1 / 3
Some of the most innovative, interesting and engaging New Zealand coach tours are often provided by small group tour operators.
They can be very bespoke, carefully created to ensure every day has very special, memorable features and travelling times are comfortable.
Bucket list activities can include digging your own hot pool in the sand at Hot Water Beach, sailing on beautiful Lake Rotoiti, a guided walking tour of Napier's art deco buildings, tasting some of Marlborough's premier wines, close up seabird viewing at Kaikoura, nature cruise and spectacular scenic flight at Milford Sound, kayaking on tranquil Okarito Lagoon, to name a few.
Small group tours usually offer a more relaxed daily schedule with extra time to enjoy the day's highlights and activities.
There is usually time and numerous opportunities to meet local kiwis at local cafes and pubs, even in private homes and rural farm locations.
Because fewer travellers means that fewer hotel rooms are required, it is often a lovely feature of small group tours to stay in smaller, boutique hotels and guest houses that are typically privately owned and operated. These properties pride themselves in offering warm, genuine New Zealand hospitality to ensure that each night is memorable for all the right reasons.
World class food, wine and private lunches all help to make these small group tours very special indeed.
Typically with a maximum of 18 - 24 people, the small group tours are usually sold out well in advance, so planning ahead and booking your space is paramount if this style of holiday is "you".

I was more open minded than normal because of the general strangeness that lingered in the Halloween-night air, but I was still taken aback by Crime Novels' set, which consisted of Ellery Samson parading around the multi-neon painted garage/venue in scrubs, weaving in and out of the crowd, while screaming lyrics over a glitchy pattern of drum machine pops and bass bumps. That was over a year ago, and since then I've come to appreciate Samson's act without under-standing the gist of it until now; a one man show dedicated to sadness.

Congratulations Houston Texans fans, the six-month emotional roller coaster that has been the run-up to the 2014 NFL draft is about over. On Thursday night we will finally find out just who the men off Kirby have deemed worthy of the number one pick in the draft.
Will fans soon be lining up at the team store for Johnny Manziel, Jadeveon Clowney, or Blake Bortles jerseys? That remains to be seen, as there is still no common consensus for what owner Bob McNair and GM Rick Smith may do come go-time on Thursday evening.
We reached out to some of the most well-known Houston Texans fans in the city — and the state — to see who they would pick if they were in the Texans front office.
It's no surprise that the flashy quarterback out of Tivy High School in Kerrville was mentioned more than a few times. There was only one mention of University at Buffalo's Khalil Mack, which totally means that we must be taking him, because that's how the universe works.

In 1966, 43 percent of the adult U.S. population smoked cigarettes.
That number plummeted to just 19 percent by 2010, a new paper in the American Journal of the American Medical Association points out.
Harvard's David Hemenway and other researchers say the methods the U.S. government used to dramatically reduce smoking can be used to target another public health problem: gun violence.
First off, they argue the government should add a "new, substantial" tax to firearms like it did with cigarettes. That tax revenue could then be used for a public health campaign to educate people about gun violence.
The U.S. also needs to "modify sociocultural norms" about violence, as it did with cigarette smoking, the paper argues. Back in the 1940s and 1950s, movie stars like Lauren Bacall glamorized cigarette smoking.
But then celebrities like Brooke Shields began speaking out against smoking in the 1980s, and the public began to see smoking as a sign of "weakness, irrationality, and addiction," the paper points out.
The paper goes onto argue that "an analogous campaign could equate gun violence with weakness, irrationality, and cowardice."

Brussels - Producing quality medicines, vaccines and diagnostic tests locally is one way low and middle-income countries can improve people's access to them, as is highlighted in a series of new reports released by the World Health Organization (WHO) in Brussels today.
"This is the first study of this type that seeks to analyse how industry, trade and health policies can work together towards shared goals to both further economic development and improve public health,." said Dr Marie-Paule Kieny, Assistant Director General for Innovation, Information, Evidence and Research at WHO.
The study highlights the challenge governments face in balancing the availability of quality-assured medical products that meet priority public health needs with ensuring that products are acceptable and affordable. Imports of affordable medicines, often generics manufactured in India and China, are one solution but the reports highlight a growing trend towards domestic production. The authors bring together evidence from a wide range of countries that are building a viable local manufacturing industry. These include Bangladesh, Ethiopia, Jordan, and Uganda.
Zafar Mirza from WHO's department of Public Health Innovation and Intellectual Property added, "Local production should be assessed not just on its economic feasibility. With the right financial incentives and regulation from government, local production should also be supported in a way that increases its potential to improve public health."
The reports are brought together in a summary document entitled Local production for access to medical products – developing a framework to improve public health. This framework emphasizes the importance of having a long-term vision and coherence across national policies. This means aligning policies on issues as diverse as medical regulation, industrial and investment policies, science, technology and innovation policies, intellectual property policies, health insurance policies, procurement policies, and technology transfer. It identifies five shared goals of industrial and health policy where incentives for local producers need to be matched with real improvements in access.
The work has been supported with funding from the European Union.
Kader Arif, member of the European Parliament Working Group on Access to Medicines, Innovation and Neglected Diseases, said, "I feel there are some interesting findings in this work, particularly as the global economy shifts and it is uncertain if developing countries will still be able to rely on a supply of affordable generic medicines from the traditional sources of India and China. A lot still needs to be done at the political level to deal with the overall access-to-medicines issue, in the context of a fast evolving intellectual property rights regime. I hope local manufacturers and governments will consider this guidance and I look forward to the next stage in the development of the project, where the framework will be piloted in a number of countries to demonstrate how access to these drugs and medical equipment can be improved where they are needed most."

Kim Kardashian attends Marine Corps ball
Reality TV star KIM KARDASHIAN made one lucky U.S. soldier a happy man as she accompanied him to the HQ Battery 10th Marine Corps Ball on Thursday (15Nov12).
The brunette beauty, who is currently dating rapper Kanye West, attended the event in Greenville, North Carolina with Sgt. Martin Gardner.
Sgt. Gardner, who was on the ball's planning committee, extended his invitation to the star months ago, and she rearranged her schedule in order to attend, according to E! Online.
Kardashian shared her thanks on her Twitter.com page, writing, "Just left the Marine Corps Ball. Thanks to all of the marines I had the opportunity to meet tonight ! Thank you for all that you do!"
Kardashian is not the first celebrity to attend a Marine Corps Ball - Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake were guests at similar events last year (11).

PAWS Feral Cat Trap Rentals
Before you begin to trap feral cats, PAWS encourages you to consider becoming a caretaker for the cat or cat colony. You will need to trap the cats to have them spayed or neutered, and commit to feeding and monitoring the colony. Please contact one of the local feral cat resource groups for more assistance, or to discuss relocation of feral cats.
You may also rent a humane cat trap if you are trying to re-capture your scared lost pet.
You may rent a humane cat trap from PAWS for a fee of $10/day or $50/week, plus a $100 deposit which will be refunded when the trap is returned in its original condition. To rent a trap, please visit us during open hours.
If a trap deposit is made in cash, you will be refunded by check through the PAWS accounting department. Traps must be returned in the original condition.
Things to consider before trapping
Given that trapping carries with it the risk of capturing a non-feral cat already belonging to someone, and since the trapping process always causes some stress to the animal, it is important to follow these steps:
- Check the local ordinances to be sure it is legal to trap cats. Search Washington State's city and county codes.
- Post at least five prominent notices around your neighborhood stating that trapping is occurring, 24 hours prior to setting the traps.
- Monitor the trap(s) frequently (at least once every hour).
- Cover the trap with a blanket, towel, etc. once the animal is trapped to help alleviate their stress.
- If you are not getting the cat spayed or neutered and returning her to her colony, be prepared to transport the trapped cat immediately to the nearest appropriate animal shelter. PAWS does not adopt out feral cats, and can only receive the cats during our open hours.
- Post at least five prominent notices in and around the neighborhood with a detailed description and location of the animal you trapped, and your contact information. If the animal has a home, this gives the neighbors a chance to claim him.
- Return all traps rented from PAWS to our shelter in Lynnwood in working order and within 10 days of the date received.

TWO metal detectorists have told for the first time how they discovered a unique hoard of Viking treasure buried in a North Yorkshire field.
Stuart Campbell and Steve Caswell found what is now known as the Bedale Hoard in May 2012.
The items they uncovered include a gold sword pommel and a silver neck ring and neck collar, the likes of which have never before been recorded.
The hoard is thought to be the long lost life savings of a Viking, and has been valued by experts at £51,636.
A fundraising campaign is now underway by the Yorkshire Museum in York, which needs to raise enough money to buy the hoard in order for it to remain in Yorkshire on public display.
Mr Campbell and Mr Caswell, who both live in the Masham area and work at the town's I'Ansons animal feed mill, have been metal detecting for four and eight years respectively.
They spend many hours researching the local landscape to identify areas which are likely to provide interesting finds.
Once out on site, they study the various features of the land, using an approach known as phenomenology to interpret how it would have been used by people hundreds of years ago.
Mr Caswell said: "It's about walking across the landscape and looking at the lumps and bumps and thinking what they are. You get a feeling for the archeology of the place."
He was convinced that they would eventually make a significant find in the area where the hoard was discovered, near Bedale.
Mr Campbell said: "Steve said to me "there is something there". He kept saying it to me and I kept going back - I had 25 visits on that same field.
"Each time we went we were finding things - button and coins - from Medieval times onwards."
Eventually, the side light from a setting sun suggested the existence of a Roman road, said Mr Campbell, and gave him the final clue about where he needed to look.
"I pulled the four stranded necklace out first," he said. "I thought it was just a piece of discarded power cable."
As more and more items turned up, he began to realise the find could be of major importance.
"I fetched out something that just looked like a blob, then the sun caught it and there was a glint," said Mr Campbell. "I thought it looked like gold. That made me look at the other piece in a different light.
"I wrapped them up in my coat and ran off to see Steve."
They returned to the site together and had another look, before covering it up, informing the farmer, and contacting their local finds liaison officer, who brought in archaeologists.
Both men are now backing the campaign to keep the hoard at the Yorkshire Museum.
"Especially with the York having such a strong Viking heritage," said Mr Caswell.

The University of Louisville football team, ranked 22nd in the Associated Press Top 25, takes on fourth-ranked Florida at 8:30 p.m. tonight in the Sugar Bowl. If the Cardinals win there's no question it would be a gigantic upset. In fact, there's no question it would be the biggest upset of all the college bowl games so far. However my question for UofL fans (and anyone else who wants to play along) is this, would a victory over the Gators tonight be bigger than the Cards' victory over Alabama in the Fiesta Bowl on Jan. 1, 1991?
No, I say.
Indulge me for a moment.
UofL, then an independent in college football, began the 1990 season unranked in the national polls after going 6-5 in 1989.
Meanwhile Alabama was ranked 13th in the preseason, coming off a 10-2 season (after which then-coach Bill Curry resigned to, gulp, become the coach at Kentucky) and with a new coach, Gene Stallings, who had played for legendary Crimson Tide coach Bear Bryant at Texas A&M.
In the Cards' first game they tied San Jose State 10-10 out in California. They then won three in a row - 68-0 over Murray State, 28-16 over Kansas and 9-7 at West Virginia - before losing 25-13 at Southern Mississippi. After that loss, though, UofL won six straight - beating Tulsa (38-14), Memphis State (19-17), Pittsburgh (27-20), Western Kentucky (41-7), Cincinnati (41-16) and Boston College (17-10) - to close out the regular season.
Meanwhile the Crimson Tide got off to a rough start under Stallings, who would lead the program to a national title two years later. Alabama lost its first three games - to Southern Miss (27-24), Florida (17-13) and Georgia (17-16) - before bouncing back to beat Vanderbilt (59-28), Louisiana-Lafayette (25-6) and upsetting then third-ranked Tennessee (9-6) and even its record. The following week, though, Penn State blanked the Crimson Tide 9-0 in Tuscaloosa. Alabama, however, finished the regular season with four straight victories - over Mississippi State (22-0), LSU (24-3), Cincinnati (45-7) and Auburn (16-7).
Despite the fact that UofL was higher ranked than Alabama (18 to 25), virtually no one gave the Cards a chance to win the Fiesta Bowl. If you remember, or don't, UofL wasn't even supposed to play in that game. The Cards had already committed to play in the not-so-prestigious All-American Bowl and the Fiesta Bowl was courting Virginia. However after Arizona voters defeated a statewide referendum to honor Martin Luther King with a holiday, the Cavaliers opted to go to the Sugar Bowl instead. That sent Fiesta organizers scrambling and opened the door for the Cards, who had only played in three bowl games in their history to that point. UofL jumped at the chance to play in a New Year's Day bowl game (back then playing on Jan. 1 was actually a big deal) and against a national powerhouse like the Crimson Tide. No one could've predicted what happened when the two teams actually met on the field.
UofL outscored Alabama 25-0 in the first quarter on its way to a 34-7 crushing of the Crimson Tide. It was a win that put the Cards' program on the proverbial college football map and actually made Coach Howard Schnellenberger's bombastic "collision course with a national championship" statement made at his hiring, appear possible.
To me it was incredible victory that wouldn't be trumped, or duplicated, by a victory tonight over the Gators. And just for the record, I don't give the Cards much of a chance. I'll take Florida, 35-14.

Texas on the Potomac welcomes guest commentary from across the political spectrum. Today, we share with you a column by Rep. Pete Gallego of Alpine. This commentary first appeared in the print edition of the San Antonio Express-News.
Sequestration is a budget measure that would make drastic, across the board cuts on the federal budget. This measure was made to be so extreme that it was supposed to force an agreement on deficit reduction.
In truth, sequestration could wreck both our economy and our country. Congress and our country are rapidly barreling towards sequestration.
Clearly, our deficit must be brought under control. As a member of the fiscally conservative Blue Dog Coalition, I have co-sponsored a balanced budget amendment. This constitutional amendment would require Congress to produce, and the president to submit, a balanced budget while protecting Social Security.
I understand that our government must live within its means. What I don't understand is the need to point fingers and play politics.
Recently, I joined the Republican majority to delay sequestration for three months. The proposal authorized the government to continue to pay its bills and ensured that members of Congress do not receive their pay if a budget is not passed. This bipartisan bill passed both chambers and was signed by the president.
Delaying sequestration, while raising the debt ceiling is responsible and gives lawmakers time to compromise. Raising the debt ceiling is not about future spending — it's not about allowing the government to spend more. It's about paying the bill. For over a decade, many of my colleagues — both Democrats and Republicans — used our national credit card and authorized billions in expenditures. The question is whether Congress will pay the bill or try to walk.
How our country racked up its debt is not rocket science. You cannot fight two wars and cut taxes at the same time and expect a budget to stay balanced. Two-thirds of the federal debt accumulated between 2001 and 2011 is a result of decisions made by Congress. It is Congress — not the president — who decides how much money the federal government spends.
The national deficit was a problem long before our current president took office. The national deficit is a problem that requires Congress to come up with smart, responsible budgetary decisions.
Congress must now pay the bills. Among them are debts we owe to our men and women in uniform for their military pay and retirement. There are debts to our seniors who have made this country great.
Not long after voting to allow our nation to pay its bills while delaying the sequester, I was disappointed that the process again focused on politics instead of good policy. Many members of Congress quickly criticized "out-of-control spending" and rebuked the Senate for failing to pass a budget.
Where were these folks when the spending was taking place? Many of these same individuals authorized that spending to begin with. And many contributed willingly to the partisan gridlock that made it impossible to pass a budget.
The legislative process should promote ideas that are good for our country; not serve as a billy club to bludgeon those on the opposite side of a political divide. All I need to know about how to reach a solution I learned in kindergarten. Just work hard with a willingness to meet the other side half-way.
A month into this process, I'm still hopeful. Congress can find a more permanent solution to our nation's debt crisis. Congress can work together to protect our children's future. There is a solution for our country and our future. Let's go find it.

Indonesian chef and restaurateur Jimmy Sujanto saw a need and fed it — twice.
Within a year of opening his popular restaurant Padi in Berkeley's Elmwood district, where aromas of spicy sambal, a condiment made from ground Thai chilies, waft along College Avenue, Sujanto has unveiled a second restaurant in San Leandro.
Open since October, the new location differs from the Elmwood restaurant both in menu (due to demand, Berkeley has more vegetarian options) and ambience (frankly, there isn't much). But, it's one of few places in Northern California to sample this sumptuous cuisine with its sweet stir-fries, heat-driven curries and, my favorite, savory soups. That makes it worthy of review.
But don't go on a date night and then say I didn't warn you — it's so casual you can show up in your sweatpants.
The San Leandro restaurant is the headquarters of Sujanto's busy catering business (he's the guy for Indonesian weddings and operates 80 percent of the business from there), which is probably why it looks and feels more like an older diner or casual cafeteria than a new restaurant.
On the plus-side, there's a small retail area where you can purchase that sambal (pint, $7.95; half-pint, $3.95) and other supplies, from spices to sweet soy sauce, to make Indonesian dishes, like lontong cap go meh ($9.95), at home. The yellow curry chicken and vegetable soup gets its thick, weighty broth from the addition of beef rendang, chunks of beef tenderloin that simmer for hours in a thick, coconut milk sauce. I particularly liked the chewy rice balls, which were reminiscent of fish balls without the fishiness.
Another soup we liked was soto ayam ($7.95), a mild and soothing classic chicken soup made bright with turmeric. If you want beef, you have to try bakso kampung ($6.95), a boiled meatball soup that has a distinctive, briny broth and meatballs so moist they spring when you bite into them.
If you're looking for something to satisfy both adults and kids, try mie tek tek ayam ($9.95), a kitchen-sink type of egg noodle dish, stir-fried in a hot wok with garlic, shallots, diced chicken, cabbage, tomato, egg and yao choy, a leafy, flowering cabbage with a slight mustard flavor. The whole thing is tossed in a combination of sweet and salty soy sauces and garnished with spicy pickled cucumber slices and shrimp chips. Everyone at our table, including the picky 5-year-old, enjoyed it.
Kids will also flip for the potato pancakes, or perkedel ($5.95 for four), which are made by mashing potatoes with salt, pepper and nutmeg then coating them with egg whites before frying them up. Our kiddies were equally fond of terong kecap ($8.95), a vegetarian stir-fry made with sliced eggplant and hearty, seed-studded tempeh. It gets its sweet, caramelized flavor from sweet Indonesian soy sauce. I had this dish with green beans instead of eggplant at Padi in Berkeley and loved it, too.
Overall, I found the food in San Leandro milder in spice. Sujanto's understudy, Dimas Pratama, a recent Le Cordon Bleu graduate, was cooking in the kitchen that night so Sujanto could be in Berkeley for dinner service. Either Pratama is less heavy-handed with sambal or the kitchen told him to go easy on the only Caucasians in the dining room. Regardless, the next time I'm in San Leandro or Hayward, particularly in chilly winter, I'll be stopping in for another bowl of memorable soup.

Google get social with Plus & pretty themselves up
There have always been a good number of reasons for using different Google services, aside from the price. GMail gives us many gigabytes of IMAP-accessible email. YouTube: HD streaming video. Maps: a powerful API and a photograph of every pavement in Britain! But one area that Google has always been a bit lacking is in producing attractive UI design. Functional, yes. Pretty, no. But over the past couple of weeks, that has all changed.
Ripping off Facebook?
Obviously it's been a big month for Google because of Google Plus. This is, without a doubt, a social network with the ability to take down the mighty Facebook. The similarities are so obvious that I don't know how they can get away with it. Facebook's best features: wall posts, galleries, etc. are all there and in the same place as on Facebook. One way it distances itself from Facebook is in the privacy settings. You no longer have to share absolutely everything with absolutely everybody. I can finally 'befriend' my mother! Adding someone to a 'family' circle, for example, means that they won't necessarily see absolutely everything you post. Of course, in my opinion, no Zuckerberg is also killer feature. I trust the giant faceless Google even more than I do the rather dodgy Facebook figurehead. I think maybe just because at the very least, I can take my data from the service whenever I want. Google+ is a great service on it's own merits though, and now part of an increasingly well tied together package. There is still a lot of work to be done: For example Google are telling companies and organisations to hold off creating accounts for now and hear is actively disabling non-individual user accounts.
Regardless, the visual feel of the place does not feel half-done and Google have rolled out a simliar new look and feel across all their services. From Calendar to new GMail themes, the new styles are an improvement across the board and help tie everything together.
YouTube gets love too
Another large part of this aesthetically pleasing drive is the somewhat oddly named Cosmic Panda. This is billed as a "new experience" which provides a less cluttered, clearer YouTube experience. It's the little features that I like most: The simple pointer cursor when you hover over the scrubber – making accurately picking the time to skip to easier. Full-page-width video is shown by default, so there is none of that silly loading a video, clicking once to make it grow to a reasonable size, then a wait for it to re-cache the video at another quality setting. User channel pages (such as this) are also more visually pleasing, although the aspect of the video thumbnails seems like a bit of an odd choice. 266px by 100px? What sort of a ratio is that? It leads to some very odd thumbnails indeed.
I also like the feedback they're running on this. It allows you to click on each part of the page you have an issue with and leave a note. This works really well. So well that it'd be nice if I could take a system like this and use it with clients (nudge nudge, Google). Choosing to be part of Cosmic Panda will change things globally, so all YouTube video pages you visit (no matter where from) will have the new theme applied. Unlike the other refreshed interfaces that Google has forced upon us recently, this is optional. My recommendation is give it a try, it only takes one click to set everything back to how it was.
All in all, good work Google. They have done the UI design equivalent of the girl in the movies who takes her glasses off and suddenly we all see that she's not just smart, but pretty as well.
If I understand Google+ correctly, you can follow/befriend/whatever me on the service here.

Former Marshall standout G DeAndre Kane joins Iowa State
AMES, Iowa – Iowa State announced Friday that former Marshall guard DeAndre Kane will play for the Cyclones next season.
Kane, who averaged 15.1 points and ranked 11th nationally with seven assists per game last season, has one year of eligibility left.
Kane figures to challenge for the starting job at point guard for Iowa State, which lost four perimeter players from last year's NCAA tournament team. Kane scored nearly 1,500 points in three seasons at Marshall.
Coach Fred Hoiberg says Kane will add "great versatility" to the Cyclones, while Kane says Iowa State's up-tempo style was a major draw.

It will be a cool, clear day across Volusia and Flagler counties Sunday, with abundant sun and a light breeze.
According to the National Weather Service office in Melbourne, the mercury Sunday will top out around 68 degrees. Light winds of 5 to 10 miles per hour will come out of the north-northeast.
Sunday night, the winds will die down and the temperature will dip into the lower 40s.
The NWS has issued a rip current statement for the area, indicating a high risk of strong rip currents at the beaches through at least this evening. At Daytona Beach Sunday morning, waves were semi-choppy and rising to 3 to 4 feet, with a surf temperature of 65 degrees.
Accordingly, the red flag is flying along the beaches. Anyone willing to brave the cool waters should exercise extreme caution.

Reported on Monday by Sports Business Journal, the NBA will borrow $175 million on Feb 26th. According to an NBA source:
The money, which will be available to 15 teams, supplements an existing $1.7 billion league-wide credit facility that uses the NBA's media contracts as collateral to secure loans for the clubs. The NBA surveyed its teams, and 15 responded they would like to tap into the new borrowing.
So who are the 15? Orlando's COO confirmed they asked for the line of credit in the article so that leaves us with 14 teams. Allow us to make a few educated guesses. We'll consider the outward state of the franchise, attendance, locale and whether or not they are the New York Knicks.
Phoenix– It's uncanny how the city of Phoenix and the Suns mirror each other. Expansion has been the key. Phoenix is the 5th largest US city largely because of its real estate growth with rising housing prices encouraging a sustained state of home-building, an industry feeding itself. Of course, Phoenix is now prepped for a second consecutive year of negative job growth and Maricopa county rapidly approaching 30,000 foreclosed homes, something tells me there isn't much money to throw around on a Tuesday night game against the Kings.
The beauty of the D'Antoni-era Suns was the way they found undervalued players who worked for the system and excelled. Now they're staring down the barrel of over $75 million in guaranteed contracts next season, nearly 50% of which is devoted to Shaq, Nash, Amareand J-Rich. Combine with withsigns that Steve Kerr is working witha mandate to cut salary and there is no reason to think Phoenix wouldn't jump at the chance to access funding to help them cover operating costs sure to be impacted with what may be the lowest percentage of season-ticket renewed in the league next year.
Sacramento– The Kings were active at the deadline this year, seeming to be the weigh-station for most of the league's action. With the California housing market depressed only slightly less than that of Phoenix, a rapidly rising unemployment rate and significant wage reduction in nearly all major industries, the Kings ranking of worst home attendance seems to make a bit more sense than our previous theory of a citywide rebuff of Quincy Douby. The Kings are set to shed about $16 million in cap space this year but they have a new arena in the works and are likely looking for something to keep that project viable more than anything else. They make the list.\
New Jersey– Just like Sacramento, the Nets are looking for some of that bridge money to carry them to their new arena. Devin Harris is an emerging star who looks like he may have been had for a more than reasonable contract extension and Vince is still waiting for that drop-off but, other than Stromile Swift's expiring contract, they are committed to the same group of marginal players next season. While they may make the playoffs this year, their attendance numbers are some of the worst in the league and the damage to the financial services sector has made it difficult to expect disposable income steered towards the Izod Center, particularly with their notably high ticket prices. If Ne Jersey has its sights set on the summer of 2010 and moving into a new arena, few franchises would be in more need of the credit line than the Nets.
Memphis– At the beginning of the year, it looked like Memphis might actually follow the path of the Mid-Atlantic cities and come out of the current meltdown stronger than before. Housing prices have remained relatively unchanged compared to the rest of the country but their growth was powered by three major industries: finance, real estate and a burgeoning auto-assembly industry. So… How do you think that's working out? Memphis just traded away their best point guard for a draft pick, they're only higher in attendance than the previously-mentioned Kings and their highest paid player is Antoine "Big Shimmy" Walker. List 'em, Danno.
New Orleans– The unutold story of New Orleans is the other side of housing. While housing prices in New Orleans actually slightly rose in 2008, Chris Paul's work in those NBA Cares commercials seems to be the only home-building in the Big Easy, the rise in price attributable to the decreased supply. The increased cost of a home has then slowed the already-glacial migration back to New Orleans following Katrina. The Tyson Chandler attempted trade was just another symptom.
Detroit– So goes Detroit, so goes the streak. February 4th saw the end of what was 259 consecutive reagular and post-season sell-outs for the Pistons. NBA.com recently publishedan article on the tough times ahead for Detroit basketball and things look grim; the 0-16 Lions are actually taking in more cash than the Pistons. Yes, the Pistons have over $36 million coming off the books next year with the expiring contracts of A.I., Sheed, McDyess and Walter Hermann and you have to applaud Dumars for being ahead of the curve, making his salary dump trade early in the season while GMslike Steve Kerr and Kiki Vanderweghe waited too long and were left holding the bag when the best that could be expected, let's be honest to ourselves here, was a low playoff seed and a first-round exit. The Pistons are in full-scale rebuilding mode and with the 27th pick plus three second-rounders in the 2009 draft, it's unlikely that those cap savings will be anything more than a cushion against what could be a crippling few years.
Washington– This seems counter-intuative. The D.C.-Metro area is one of the new urban centers in the country actually projecting growth over the next year, showing unemployment rates at percentage points below the national average. But unlike other regions holding steady (Houston, Dallas…), much of D.C.'s growth can be attributed to spending by the federal government- not the sort of dough that gets spent on corporate skyboxes. There will still be law firms, accounting firms and lobbiestswho will re-up those season deals but the future doesn't look as bright as other regions that don't demand a level of transparency. Combine this with a committmentof over $75 million next year, $16 million dedicated to Mr. Glass, a high draft pick with guaranteed money and attendance in the bottom third of the league and, unless an off-season trade brings them the relief they'll need, the Wizards are in for a rough 09-10.
Miami– Not every franchise looking to borrow has the outward signs of fullscale economic meltdown. While Miami's housing market was hammered over the past six months, many of the property owners were investors, not Miami residents. Further, Miami's real estate market tends to be high-end so even a drop in value may not preclude Miamiansfrom making it to the American Airlines Arena. Oh, and the Heat just took on around $34 million worth of Jermaine O'Nealover this year and next, not the sign of a franchise underwater. So why does Miami make the list? They want a bridge. With their sights set on the summer of 2010, having the flexibility of some league bread over the next year allows them to float along next year or, if Riles is feeling punchy, make that much-rumored run at Carlos Boozer this off-season.
Los Angeles Clippers– The curse, dear Baron, is not in our stars but in ourselves that we are Clippers. Los Angeles is in a similar situation as Miami. L.A. home values are depressed by more than 30% compared to last year but the difference between this depression and that of Miami is that these homes tend to be primary residences, not vacation homes. Foreclosures have yet to peak and the city faces double-digit employment in the very near future. Were the Clippers the only show in town, the slowdown might be tolerable but the Lakerseat up much of the available basketball revenue, averaging about 3,500 more tickets sold per game, with the highest average price in the league, the Lakers take in about $112,000 per game in ticket sales alone- that's approximately one Steve Novak per every seven games. The Clippers also have some of the most significant contract commitments over the next two seasons ($30 million for Baron and Z-Bo alone in 10/11) and little hope of making the playoffs, there's every reason to believe LAC would like to work with a safety net for a while.
Indiana– The Pacers looked primed for a playoff run this year. They have an emerging star in Danny Granger, serviceable bigs and a system that seems to play to the strengthsof the team. 56 games into the season, Granger is taking a few weeks off, Dunleavy is done for the season and the Pacers are on pace for a truly disappointing season. Home prices have remained comparatively stable in the region but wage shrinkage has limited household disposable income, not a great sign for a franchise that ranked in the bottom three in attendance for the past three seasons. Indiana's manufacturing sector might benefit from President Obama's "Buy American" provisions but it won't be enough to grant comfort to a franchise who will likely have to work to avoid the luxury tax next season.
Golden State– There are no better fans in the league than those packing Oracle Arena every game. You can't doubt their passion but we might have to start questioning their wallet. The Oakland/ San Fran housing market was torpedoed in Q4 '08, job growth has slowed and unemployment is ballooning. Low ticket prices could keep attendance in the top third of the league but season ticket renewals are suspected to be down and corporate sponsorship has declined. Along with all this, Chris Mullin likely won't be able to push the franchise under the cap this year unless Jamal Crawford opts out. Unless Monta Ellis has an obscene year in 09/10 and Mullin is able to sign a clever one-year deal (Rasheed Wallace or Lamar Odom, perhaps?), it will likely be back to the lottery for The City both this year and next.
Charlotte– This is a strange situation. Wall Street South was hurt badly by the purchase of Wachovia by Wells Fargo and Bank of America's stock devaluation, as many BofA workers counted the high value of compensatory stock as their primary source of wealth. That said, there are some silver linings. Bank of America is aggressive in acquiring devalued assets which they hope to turn around and other finance firms are looking to move operations to the city and take advantage of a highly-skilled but currently displaced workforce. It would be nice to say this is partly the reason the Bobcats stockpiled overpriced vets during the season but the disappointing answer is likely that these are "Larry Brown Guys" and that's the essence of the team's current strategy. If you're going to go that route and have attendance numbers that hover among the worst in the association, an infusion of cash to help address the red of basic operating costs should be the way to go.
Minnesota– This team wouldn't have been listed prior to the McHale Surge. They've got a low cap number, a fair amount of cheap talent and desirable expiring contracts next year in Mike Miller and Brian Cardinal, prime targets for teams looking forward to, say it with me, the summer of 2010. So why are the T'Wolves on the list? Look for them to be active this offseason. With McHale now on the bench and young players like Kevin Love and Rodney Carney contributing, GM McHale might look to give Coach McHale a hand by throwing some money around and bringing in a vet or two. But if you build it, it doesn't mean they'll come. Despite a robust package heading their way from Obama's stimulus package, unemployment is rising and it will take more than building a highway to get fans to the arena on nights when the Celtics aren't in town. If McHale can time this right, he could have a rising franchise just has his city is feeling a real economic boost. And if he doesn't? Well, we're going to need a bigger bailout.
New York– Really? The Knicks? The New York Knicks? New York should be raking it in. They have the second-highest average ticket price in the league and consistently rank in the top third in attendance. They play in the world's most famous arena and sell more merchandise than few NBA teams. Sure, the New York economy has been hit as bad as anyone but the Knickerbockers are no Broadway show. That's not the point though. Like a pampered prep school graduate, the Knicks are looking at a gap year. The world knows the Knicks are looking for two or maybe even three max contracts in two summers and have done everything they can to position themselves. That means taking on a lot of junk this year. The Knicks aren't in trouble but it's easy to see them looking for some extra capital to shore things up this year and next before they sign LeBron, Wade, Amare, Bosh, Yao and Darko. What, you didn't know Darko's contract was up after next season? Get with the program.

VALLEY GLEN — On paper, the Glendale Community College football team looked to have its best chance to pick up its first American Division Pacific Conference win of the season and end a four-game losing streak when going on the road to face a Los Angeles Valley team that was winless.
But to accomplish this, the Vaqueros would have to do without their best weapon on offense, with running back Collin Keoshian suspended for the game, starting tackle Steven Escobaza removed from the team, quarterback Ki Bae starting only his second game, and a myriad of injuries. However, on the field, even all those missing components might not have made up for the astoundingly poor execution at the start. Against Glendale, the host Monarchs looked like a team with a zero in the back of their record rather than the front as they put up 35 unanswered points in the first quarter en route to a 57-18 win.
"I've never seen anything so erroneous, error after error," Glendale Coach John Rome said of his team's early execution. "I mean, really good teams can't overcome that and we haven't shown we can do that without self-destruction."
Los Angeles Valley (1-7, 1-4) had not scored more than 22 points in any of its games before facing the Vaqueros Saturday night. The Monarchs passed that mark 7:04 into the first quarter, starting with a 94-yard return of the opening kickoff by Antonio Bray. That score, just 14 seconds into the game, marked the Monarchs' first lead at home of the season.
On the ensuing possession, Glendale (2-6, 0-5) turned the ball over on its second play when a shotgun snap sailed past Bae's right shoulder and was recovered by Valley's George Alvarez at the Vaquero 21-yard line. The defense held with a sack on third down by Justin Slaughter leading to a punt. But three plays into the next drive, the Vaqueros again fumbled a snap and this time it was immediately turned into points when Bryan Beaman scooped it up and went 19 yards for a touchdown.
Glendale then tried to answer, but instead punted without getting a first down. Two plays later, Bray got his second touchdown of the first quarter on a 50-yard run up the middle. Continuing the calamity of errors, on Glendale's next play, Bae, now under center, dropped the snap and it was recovered by Monarch Alfy Hill at the Vaquero 18-yard line. Valley converted this fumble, the third of the quarter, into points after a short drive on a 16-yard screen pass from quarterback Bradley Hunt to Bray for the sophomore's third touchdown of the contest. With 3:45 left in the first quarter, Bray scored his fourth touchdown on a 14-yard touchdown pass from Bradley, several plays after Glendale muffed a kickoff. So, on the strength of four Bray touchdowns and four Glendale turnovers, the host Monarchs had an insurmountable 35-0 advantage after one quarter.
"Early mistakes kind of hurt us. After the mistakes we just tried to stay resilient," Bae said.
For Glendale, Walter Moctezuma filled in admirably for Keoshian as the Vaqueros' primary ball carrier. Keoshian was held out of the game by Glendale in anticipation of the denial of an appeal of his suspension for a hit that happened on the final play of a 13-0 loss to L.A. Southwest College last week.
"We didn't get any clarification of [Keoshian's] status from the commissioner, so we held him out," Rome, who expects the running back to be back next week, explained.
Moctezuma carried the ball 19 times for 56 hard-fought yards and two touchdowns. The freshman's first score came 34 seconds into the second quarter on a nine-yard run to the right, completing a 34-yard drive set up by a fumble recovery by freshman Devon Bonner. However, Glendale only ended up with a net gain of four points when the point-after kick attempt was blocked at the line, then picked up by Winston Rose and returned the other direction for two Monarch points.
The Glendale defense took the ball away again on the next Valley possession when Davion Holloway stripped Bray and the Vaqueros recovered. The defense held again on the next possession, which ended in a punt after Slaughter got his second sack of the first half. After that, the Monarch defense decided not to wait for its offense to score again when Rose intercepted Bae and returned the ball 59 yards for a touchdown.
After a 53-yard kickoff return by Eugene Gandara set Glendale up at the Monarch 39-yard line, the Vaqueros squeezed out a touchdown in the final minute to go into the break trailing, 44-12. The late score came on a six-yard touchdown pass from Bae to Jess Reed in the back left corner of the end zone on fourth down with 38 seconds to go. Reed, a tight end who also handles the punting duties, led his team in receiving with five catches for 28 yards.
Steve Carranza took over at quarterback for the Monarchs in the second half, and they scored on their first drive of the third quarter. The touchdown came on a one-yard run by Royce Long, after which Vaquero Bobby Baker broke through and blocked the extra-point kick attempt. Moctezuma scored his second touchdown on the Vaqueros' next possession, running it in from two yards out.
Valley scored the only points of the fourth quarter by capitalizing on Glendale's sixth turnover, a fumble by Mario Rodriquez, with a 14-yard scoring pass from Carranza to Keith Redmond. After that, Glendale was not done turning the ball over, as it muffed a punt later in the fourth, but both teams were done scoring.
"We've just got to do our best in these last two games and play our hardest. Keep our heads up and hope for results," Reed said.

Are the words "toward" and "towards" interchangeable? Or are there rules governing when one or the other is used? Someone just asked me, being that I'm considered an authority on obscurities here at work, but I really don't know the answer.
Any help would be appreciated!

...I just saw this on news.bbc and it looked worth commenting on:
So does anyone think the US will try and make Israel actually, you know, do anything about this?
...I just saw this on news.bbc and it looked worth commenting on:
So does anyone think the US will try and make Israel actually, you know, do anything about this?
In case I didn't make the title of this thread eye-catching enough, the gist of the news piece is that Bush has said "Israel must end occupation of Arab land to enable the creation of a viable Palestinian state", which seems a pretty unequivocal statement that the US will not indulge Israel indefinitely. Anyway, I thought it was worth mentioning! Anyone?
Since that would involve both the Israelis and the Palestinians making concessions, do you think it likely?
But that's by-the-by, Israel is the side with the all the advantages in this conflict - political, economic and military - so as far as I can see it's up to Israel to make concessions first.
I'd also question whether many or most Palestinians really do want to make concessions. There are polls on stuff like that. What do they say? For instance, Fatah basically get bribed to become "moderate" by Israel and the US. They use this money to provide kick-backs to their constituents (i.e. winning coalition supporters) in the form of private goods. This hasn't made them very popular for, I think, two reasons. Being moderate is not what the people of Palestine want. A corrupt government is not what the people of Palestine want. I don't see any way round this impass.
If Israel starts to make some concessions - such as leaving illegally-occupied land and scaling back on the roadblocks and trade restrictions - I think support (from Palestinians) for a more concilliatory, less hardline government would grow. The way things are, it's hardly surprising there's widespread support for a hardline party.
i don't think it matters what palestinans do, frankly! if hamas is there or not, if they suddenly become loving buddhas, whatever they do they have no freedom of movement, no power beyond the capacity to reproduce, and even then it is undermined by the harsh conditions of life in what is essentially a concentration camp. israel will never give up the territory acquired in 1967 because it feels it was acquired legitimately, it is integral to the national mystique. it will never really oppose settlements because arabs are vermin on soil that is theirs by ancestral right, it falls in line with the silent policy of ethnic cleansing and erasing of palestinian arab identity. i predict they will advance little by little until the hordes self-destruct or agree to have their 1 cm squared state, and if along the way by some miracle they attain enlightenment and renounce all struggle israel will fabricate a pretext to maintain this state of hostility which is requisite for expansion and eventual total victory. i don't see a way out of this.
Edit: not really sure where I'm going with this, except to point out that you can't talk about "the Palestinians" as a single military/political entity in the same way you can talk about "the Israelis".
You think? I'd got the impression there was basically a pretty deep rift in Palestinian politics. But then, I'm just going on what I see on the BBC for the most part, I don't follow this as closely as some.
My main point was that there's just one IDF (although of course many settlers are also armed) which enacts the will of the Israeli government, whereas in Palestine there are many (para)military groups with different political allegiances.
occupied territories is the magic word, this is the main thing. the emphasis today is on islamic radicals vs moderates, tomorrow it will be something else, but one forgets that the common objective is to break free of occupation.
i hope i have been following this thread correctly... i am new to this.
what will happen if it was to... i do not know what freedom could be to people who have never had this. the entire situation is an absolute mind field.

Westway Road reopens after RR bridge work
Photo: Contributed Photo
Westway Road in the Southport section of town has fully reopened for traffic about three years after work began on the railroad bridge that passes overhead.
Intermittent to full closures of traffic on Westway Road, between Pequot Avenue and Westford Drive, started about three years ago as part of the project to upgrade the railroad catenary wire system on Metro-North's New Haven Rail Line between Fairfield and Bridgeport. Five rail spans are also being replaced as part of that project.
The road was opened last Friday, per orders of the state Department of Transportation.

[This post is written by Javed Cheema]
Danny and I went out to get some phone credit in Addis after having had a rather long day with client meetings and some sightseeing. We were requested to also bring back a piece of home if we could find some … Snickers!
It was dark outside and our part of town had been suffering from a constant electric and internet blackout for the last 4 days straight. Thankfully, we were on backup generator power and didn't have issues inside the hotel. However, outside the hotel it was a little different story. We couldn't find the revered chocolate bar on our first 2 stops. However, we found something much more important – kindness and generosity! We found BinYamin.
BinYamin was the owner of a small beverage shack, but an owner of a VERY big heart. After pondering for a little while which way to send the lost foreigners in the dark night of a blacked-out Addis, he finally said, "Come with me." We were taken aback by this and we insisted that this was not that important and he shouldn't leave his business to help us find a 12-ounce bar. BinYamin didn't take no for an answer. We followed him for several city blocks during which he made sure that he protected us from the unruly traffic crossings and open holes in the side walk that could have made for a sewage laden mess at a minimum. We had great conversations in his broken English and our very broken Amharic. We tried our best to communicate with each other with words, gestures and facial expressions and shared a few laughs. We felt at home with this unknown person we had just met 20 minutes ago! However, the best was yet to come!
After reaching another small but well stocked shop, we discovered the Snickers bar we wanted, but we also found out that neither Danny nor I had any cash on us!!! We laughed at the silliness of our situation and tried to figure out the most polite way to break the news to our host as well as the shop keeper. Strange things started to happen. First, BinYamin's determination that we get the bar and second, him emptying his pockets in search of cash – cash for us! However, his pockets came out just as empty as ours. But, this was not to deter a determined Ethiopian bent on kindness. He had been holding 2 phones (the old Nokia types). He put one of the phones on the counter and we finally realized what he was doing – he was putting security down in exchange for the bar and promising the shopkeeper to return with cash!!!
Here we are in Ethiopia and this unknown stranger wants to part with one of his few precious belongings to help some strange foreigners!! Oh, how overwhelmed we were with the feeling!
After some trying, we finally convinced BinYamin that we didn't really need the bar that bad and he took his phone back. His kindness extended all the way back until he brought us back almost to the footsteps of our hotel, making sure that we got a safe escort back in the still dark night.
Forget the Snickers. We found something much more precious. We found BinYamin . There is hope for a better world because there are people like BinYamin in it!

Pillar of Defense
I woke up this morning to the sound of planes flying overhead. Since Jerusalem, Israel is not on a flight path, hearing planes in the morning means that something is happening.
Over the last five days Hamas has lobbed a constant stream of hundreds of rockets into Israel, aimed at over than 4.5 million civilians. The Israeli Air Force has responded, pinpointing those who are firing the missiles.
What is special about the Israeli Air Force?
The pilots?
The planes?
Their mission to protect the Jewish people and Israel?
That they would abandon a mission to protect Gazan civilians?
Last month I was privileged to participate in a Sefer Torah dedication at an Israeli Air Force base in southern Israel.
It was an impressive event,
Ashkenazim and Sefardim danced together
as they held the Torah scroll high in celebration.
The name of Operation "Pillar of Defense" comes from the Torah text.
Friday night a warning siren went off in Jerusalem. Neighbors who had never spoken to each other huddled in their stairwells together for safety.
Jerusalem is quiet now, but to the north and to the south the rockets keep coming from Gaza.
May the prayers and good wishes coming from around the world
protect those who go to fly and fight to protect us.
Oops, more planes just flew over…

New $100 Bill Has All the Bells and Whistles
The Federal Reserve has unveiled the new $100 bill, the first redesign since 1996. The Fed's Sonja Danburg shared some of the new features with WSJ's Sudeep Reddy, including additional security measures designed to thwart counterfeiting.

A piece of history unique to Surf City emerged when Hurricane Sandy skirted Topsail Island.
A piece of history unique to Surf City emerged on the beach when Hurricane Sandy skirted Topsail Island's shore, drawing curious onlookers who are reminded to look, but not touch.
A section of the William H. Sumner, a three-masted schooner whose young captain died under suspicious circumstances after running the ship aground in 1919, has been protruding from the sand a short distance from the Dolphin Street beach access.
The wreckage is a chunk of the ship that floated ashore when the Coast Guard blasted the vessel shortly after it ran aground, to remove the navigation hazard, said Nathan Henry, assistant state archaeologist and conservator with the Underwater Archaeology Branch of the North Carolina Office of State Archaeology.
"This piece broke completely off of the wreck," Henry said. "It's really been there for quite some time. At this point it's in a perfect place. It will last under that sand just being exposed every once in a while. For that reason we really prefer that these things stay in place."
At least part of the 489-ton, 165-foot ship is believed to be resting at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean near the southern end of the island. Erosion caused by strong coastal storms routinely exposes what has been identified as a side portion of the ship.
A large frame of the ship that once rested on the shore is in the state archaeology lab in Fort Fisher. Henry said he moved the frame to the lab after a group of fishermen was caught trying to illegally remove it from the beach about a year ago.
The state claims all abandoned shipwrecks still in the water.
Surf City Mayor Zander Guysaid when the wreckage was initially exposed more than 10 years ago it was a public safety concern. Large iron bolts used to hold the ship's frame together eventually erode into spikes – a potential hazard to beachgoers.
The state can permit beach towns to relocate and re-bury ship wreckage, Henry said.
For the most part, beach towns leave the artifacts in place, giving a residents and visitors a rare glimpse of the past outside of museum walls.
Henry said the Sumner is a valuable resource unique to Surf City since most shipwrecks on the North Carolina coast are in the Outer Banks. He encourages anyone intrigued by the wreckage to "look and enjoy."
Archaeologists have studied the ship, a "heavily-built" vessel that hauled lumber and phosphate rock for about 30 years. On Sept. 7, 1919, it was sailing precariously close to the shore, catching the attention of swimmers and sunbathers at Wrightsville Beach.
Shortly after it ran aground, the Sumner's 24-year-old captain was dead. His ship's mate, Charles L. Lacey, claimed that his boss, Robert E. Cockram, shot himself to death. This was Cockram's first command after a promotion only two weeks before.
But evidence pointed to foul play, and Lacey was charged with murder. He was convicted of the crime but later acquitted in an appeal.
