The Techniques Portal
Welcome to the techniques portal!
The guitar is such a cool instrument because it allows for so many different techniques. Typical shred techniques are sweep picking and tapping, while most guitar styles use alternate picking. Classical guitarists often use fingerstyle technique - while rock guitarists use a pick.

An A to Z of picking techniques
"There are several formerly recognised picking techniques, yet it is surprising how many guitar players, even experienced ones, do not even know they exist. Or to put things more correctly, they know they exist as they have probably developed the same picking techniques themselves, yet they are unaware that they are actual recognised and named techniques. more"

Pond & Lake Q & A
Q: What's the difference between PondClear and MuckAway? – Barry in Oklahoma
A: We can summarize the difference between the two in one sentence: PondClear™ works to remove excess nutrients from the surface down; MuckAway™ works to remove excess nutrients from the bottom up. Seems simple – or is it?
In general, water clarity problems occur when excess amounts of rotting vegetation, leaves, twigs and fish waste accumulate in the pond or lake. These tiny particles are either suspended in the water column, or they settle to the bottom of the pond.
PondClear™ packets, which are made of beneficial bacteria, are designed to break down waste and suspended organics in the water column. Imagine thousands of hungry bacteria, which multiply every 20 to 40 minutes, swimming through your pond or lake and gobbling through the excess nutrients. After just a few weeks of use, chemical-free PondClear™ will begin to clear up your water and dissipate any lingering odors.
PondClear™ comes in easy-to-use, pre-measured water-soluble packets that you simply toss into your pond or lake every two weeks. One pail of PondClear™ will treat a quarter-acre pond for up to six months. It's safe for use around horses, livestock, birds, fish, pets and wildlife.
MuckAway™ pellets, which are also made of beneficial bacteria, are designed to sink to the bottom of a pond or lake to digest the detritus, which are their natural food source. As the bacteria start to work, the muck will begin to break down, noxious odors will dissipate and the water clarity will improve. It's great for spot-treating troublesome areas, like beaches and shorelines.
When used as directed, MuckAway™ will break down up to 5 inches of muck per year. One pail of MuckAway™ will treat up to 16,000 square feet of pond. It's safe for use around horses, livestock, birds, fish, pets and wildlife, too.
Whether you use PondClear™ or MuckAway™, be sure to use when water temperatures are above 50° Fahrenheit. If you use an algaecide or herbicide treatment, wait at least three days before adding the beneficial bacteria.

In his 1994 book Black Holes and Time Warps, physicist Kip Thorne wrote of the tantalizing discoveries to come in the 21st century. In particular, the existence of gravitational waves—ripples in the fabric of space and time—might soon graduate from theoretical prediction to known fact. And those waves could carry all-important hints about their origins in the motion or collision of extremely massive objects.
"Gravitational-wave detectors will soon bring us observational maps of black holes, and the symphonic sounds of black holes colliding—symphonies filled with rich, new information about how warped spacetime behaves when wildly vibrating," Thorne wrote.
That time is nearly upon us, he now believes. The California Institute of Technology theorist writes in the August 3 issue of Science that in five years' time, ongoing upgrades to the world's leading gravitational-wave observatories will make those instruments sensitive enough to detect the waves, which would provide yet another confirmation of Einstein's general theory of relativity. The detection would also open up a new regime for studying black holes, those cosmic gluttons whose gravitational pull is so strong that it forms a one-way funnel into their maw.
As of now, astrophysicists can only infer the presence of a black hole by monitoring the environs around the putative object. In the case of Sagittarius A*, in the center of our own Milky Way galaxy, for instance, astronomers can see flares of radiation emanating from the black hole's location, caused by infalling material heating up and radiating outside the event horizon. Stars at the galactic center betray the presence of Sagittarius A* as well—their orbits point to the existence of a nearby compact object with the mass of four million suns.
The strong gravitational-wave signature expected from merging black holes would carry a wealth of information both about the objects involved and about their cataclysmic interaction.
Two major gravitational-wave detector projects have been on the lookout for these spacetime ripples, but so far the search has not produced any results. Both the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) and the Virgo observatory are L-shaped instruments with extremely long arms—four kilometers for the two LIGO facilities in Washington and Louisiana and three kilometers for Italy's Virgo. They rely on long-baseline interferometry, firing lasers down the perpendicular arms to see if one direction has been stretched or compressed relative to the other by a passing gravitational wave. "The advanced LIGO and advanced Virgo interferometers are now being installed and by 2017 should reach sensitivities at which black-hole mergers are observed," Thorne writes. Sounds like the race is on to detect gravitational waves, one of the biggest prizes in physics.

This year I decided to try growing a tomato plant in in a DWC hydroponic bucket setup and am having an issue I've never seen before. I've grown tomatos in soil on our property for many years and have never really had any issues with disease before, lucky I guess. The plant was purchased at a nursery in one of those 4-6" square pots in potting soil and then left outside for a wk. before I had my DWC system ready to go. When it was brought in one of the leaves had a small bit of brown on the tip which I attributed to maybe some lite frosting and thought nothing of it. After placing the plant in the DWC bucket system this brown stuff started to spread to more leaves. The plant has been growing great, faster then any tomato I've planted in dirt but this stuff seems to be taking over the plant and I have no idea what it is. I've looked online and the pictures of the more common diseases don't match anything I've seen. I thought it was septoria leaf spot or some kind of blight but it don't look quite the same to me at least. I could be wrong though. If anyone has any idea it would be much appreciated. I would hate to lose my first hydroponic tomato. Thanks!

Betting on a mid-June AL Central baseball game seems like a brilliant path to financial freedom, but believe it or not, there are dangers. Like a flock of birds attacking Coco Crisp and costing you a $38,000 payday.
Aaron Smith, of (I assume) Las Vegas, put down two bets totaling $21,750 on last Thursday's matchup between the Royals and Indians, What would possess someone to do such a thing? Well, Zack Greinke was pitching and that guy like ... never loses.
Even if you hadn't read this story from last week, you could probably guess how this one ends. Greinke and his bullpen blow a 3-1 lead and the game-winning RBI in the tenth bounces off a seagull that had parked himself in the outfield. Royals lose! Now Smith—a man who willingly wagered over $20,000 on the Royals— somehow thinks he has the worst bad beat story of all-time and will give $1,000 to anyone who can top it. That shouldn't be too hard. (Especially since the Indians had two on and nobody out against Kyle Farnsworth. The bird was the least of your issues. Of course, this contest make no sense unless the guy is trying to sell something—or he's an even worse gambler than we imagine.)
But walk into any poker room in the country and say, "Boy, did I have some rotten luck today," and you'll have 50 degenerate gamblers swarming you with sob stories that would make the hardest leg-breaking mob enforcer weep.
And to think all this guy lost was money!
When birds attack: a terrible gambling story, and $1,000 offer if you can top it [Ball Star]

"We don't have to lose anymore," the head coach said, his players nodding along in agreement. "We don't have to give up games anymore."
After the Giants game in 2011, I remember Pete Carroll commenting that there comes a turning point in every program where the team captures this self-belief and confidence that they will win. Once that happens, that team simply doesn't lose anymore. He described how that happened in his USC program as well. Once that light bulb turned on, Trojans simply didn't lose anymore. Of course teams drop games here and there, but winning sort of becomes a habit. He said the same thing about the Seahawks after the memorable Giants win (see link above). Of course, he was only partly correct because the team went ahead and dropped games at Browns, vs. Bengals and at Cowboys in a row. I remember feeling at the time that while Pete was right in his philosophy, he might have been a bit premature regarding the Seahawks. I was patiently waiting for the right time when that light bulb does turn on for us.
After the Chicago game this year, I felt that we have hit that turning point. The self-belief and self-confidence has soared and I feel our Seahawks now firmly believe that they can win. Anywhere. Against anyone.
Danny O'Neil had some similar stats this morning on the seattletimes blog.
Do you agree? Do you think it was the Chicago game that was the turning point? Or maybe the 49ers game this past weekend? Or even the Patriots game earlier?
Go 'Hawks.

I am not sure if he has been talked about at length yet so I am sorry if it has. Softy had a guy on and the guy mentioned Carradine. Basically he thought that i his injury checks out ok he could creep into the 1st round. What I liked is he said he is a good pass rusher and an even better against the run. I like players that are good pass rushers and I like players that are good against the run but I really, really like players that can do both above average. Just looking at his size(6'4", 265) he definitely has the size. Could he be our future every down LEO? This would be great as it would also allow Irvin to come in as a pure pass rushing specialist which I think suits him much better. Even if Irvin grows into a great LEO Tank wouldn't be that far, size wise, from ending up being able to play SDE and be the future replacement to Red.
So my question is what are other's thoughts on Tank? Would drafting him in the late first be too much of a risk?

I have discovered many great finds from Trove but today I decided I needed to find something new. One of my families lived at 21 Cambridge street, Rozelle and/or its semi-detached neighbour for over 100 years. In fact they rented from the same family for all that time. I must remember to blog about this story.
I decided to see if Cambridge Street, Rozelle ever featured in one of the Sydney papers. So today here is my first find.
|Sydney Morning Herald, 22 January, 1904, p. 3
My great, great grandfather John Charles Ryan lived at 21 Cambridge Street. Depending on the street numbering it is quite possible that Walter Jones would have lived in the next semi-detached house. Both men were in their sixties and would of course have known each other.
What thoughts would have gone through John Ryan's mind? Was his neighbour murdered, run down or did he simply fall?
The inquest into Jones' death was resumed on 27th January, 1904.
|Sydney Morning Herald, 28 January, 1904, p. 3
Walter Jones was interred in Section T, Grave 9059 of the Anglican portion of Rookwood cemetery on 23rd January 1904.

One of the few things that just about all sides agree upon in this health care debate is that we need more primary care providers -- lots more. And an already serious shortage will only get worse if we succeed in expanding coverage to some or all of the 47 million Americans who now lack it. [...] The good news, however, is that there is a large army of reinforcements out there--primary care providers who are proving their worth every day, particularly in underserved areas like rural America. They're called ... nurses. More specifically, nurse practitioners. In 2006, there were nearly 145,000 nurse practitioners--registered nurses with advanced training--practicing in America. In 2007, another 3,700 graduated from masters degree and postmasters programs.Karen Tumulty has been exceptional in her health care writing lately. This piece, while entirely accurate, has a disquieting element to it. Physician-provided primary care is dying, and in the future will be provided by Mid-Level Providers (including NP's and PA's).
This is not altogether a terrible thing. There's an efficiency argument for MLP's in primary care: they are more affordable in large numbers. And there are not enough physicians to provide the needed service. Quality is more concerning. Within a limited scope of practice and with reasonable supervision, MLPs can provide great quality primary and acute care. But MLPs are not physicians. I've worked with a lot of MLPs over the years, and many of them were very good at what they did. My experience, however, is that even the less-exceptional physicians I have worked with had a deeper breadth of knowledge and skills than the best MLPs. So while I see a role for MLPs and I respect them for the abilities they have, supervision is essential. But, as referenced in the article, many states allow near-independent practice by NPs in particular, and then greatest need for MLPs is in sites where physicians are not available. When a provider gets in over their head, it can be very dangerous, especially when they do not realize that they are out of their depth.
This situation is suboptimal. The ideal would be to have enough physicians to provide these services without compromising quality. But the deathgrip that proceduralists have had on the compensation system (the RUC) has bled primary care dry financially and in personnel. Even if the health market reform rejuvenates primary care training, it will be five to ten years before the new PCPs hit the market in meaningful numbers. If Obama is successful in accomplishing universal coverage, this lag time will be too long, and MLPs may fill the market niche in the interim.

Danbury business unveils new personal safety technology
Pontimax Technologies, a Danbury-based provider of consulting services in telecommunications service delivery and technology development, has introduced yrConnected, a personal safety and security product.
Contrasted with traditional technology that requires a user to wear a pendant or bracelet, yrConnected's sensors, in combination with its intelligent monitoring software, will detect immobility no matter the state of the user.
"Finally there's a service that actually positively detects when there's a need to check on the welfare of a loved one," said Ray Keating, managing member of Pontimax Technologies, in a statement. "yrConnected can detect when the person is immobile and alert caregivers to check on them. With yrConnected, there's no requirement to wear anything, so the user doesn't have to remember to put on anything."
Studies have shown that pendants are not reliably worn, Keating said, with one study disclosing that only 8 percent of users wear them at all times.
Those studies reveal that individuals who wear them during the day, almost two-thirds of those take them off at night, when statistically the majority of accidents occur, he said.
The device, which relies on cloud computing technology, detects immobility through a wireless sensor in a home and also provides options for being alerted for a user wandering outside of the residence and anti-victimization for detection of the presence of additional individuals.
The device uses the power of the Web to keep concerned caregivers connected through a private Google Docs page so that they can electronically look in on their loved ones.
Many organizations, like Western Connecticut Homecare, affiliated with Danbury Hospital, use a more traditional pendant technology produced by Philips and called Philips Lifeline.
"It's been very successful for us," said Judy Becker, manager of lifeline services for Western Connecticut Homecare. "Some people with dementia don't know why they are wearing a pendant."
Founded in 1999, Pontimax Technologies assists the Eugene Research Institute in Eugene, Ore., through technology contributions, in its performance of a series of grants focused on Independent Living for the Developmentally Disabled, from the National Institute of Disability and Rehabilitation Research.

From Eikoku Roshukai
Who We Are
The Roshukai offers instruction in the classical style of Muso Jikiden Eishin Ryu Japanese Swordsmanship to any sincere student irrespective of what association or group they may belong.
The Eikoku Roshukai ( English branch of Roshukai ) is neither an organization or association but is based on a traditional school that has its roots in Japan that go back over 500 years.
Some years ago, a group of like minded people in the UK began to organize regular seminars to advance the knowledge and understanding of the classical Iai of the Muso Jikiden Eishin Ryu. It soon became clear that in order to do this, funds would have to be raised to finance visits from Japanese instructors. However, in raising funds the philosophy of the group is still to provide, at the cheapest possible costs to students, regular seminars with UK instructors of very high calibre. The annual membership is kept very low at just £25.00 per year, with the cost of seminars from only £10.00. This value for money approach is deliberate in order to encourage as many students as possible to join and attend as many seminars as possible.
Handbooks, courses and insurance are all available within the membership. A regular magazine called "Obi" is sent out free to each member to keep them informed of news and events and to provide a forum for discussing a wide range of topics associated with Martial Arts and Iaido in particular.
The group is run by its members for its members. None of the participants receive any remuneration of any kind for activities associated with the group. The formula works, the membership continues to grow with members across the country.
Roshukai Headmaster
Iwata Norikazu Sensei was born in 1913. He began his iaijutsu training in Kochi with students of the 17th master Oe Masamichi, he then went on to University in Tokyo and continued his training there under Mori Shigeki, another famous student of Oe Masamichi. Today at the age of 106 Iwata Norikazu Sensei is a Menkyo Kaiden (highest level certificate) holder and 19th generation hanshi of the ryu.
Iwata Sensei is famous in the sword world of Japan and is held in the highest regard, not only as a swordsman, but as historian and writer on the subject. He is still fit and healthy, training and teaching regularly and has dedicated the rest of his years to passing on the teachings of Oe Masamichi. This he does this through the vehicle of the Roshukai.

Fire & Explosion
Fires and dust explosions occur almost daily across many industries. When working combustible materials, sparks and embers can be created very quickly. This is a constant danger for all facilities where combustible materials are being worked, exhausted, transported, filtered or dried.
The moisture, material distribution, density, thickness and bonding are important factors for panel production. With increased production capacities, changes in parameters can cause substantial financial losses.
Sampling may work for statistics analysis, but on the production line it is better to get the full picture of distribution, foreign object identification, surface defects and weight. Full width production scanners measure, record, and display every inch of the product.

Pirates topped by red-hot Brewers in series finale
MILWAUKEE -- Prior to Sunday's finale of the series here with the Brewers, manager Clint Hurdle tried to put into words why it is easier for the Pirates to play tight games than it is for the fans to watch them.
"We do this. It's what we get to do for a living," Hurdle had said. "We don't ride that roller coaster that a lot of people are on."View Full Game Coverage
MILWAUKEE -- Prior to Sunday's finale of the series here with the Brewers, manager Clint Hurdle tried to put into words why it is easier for the Pirates to play tight games than it is for the fans to watch them.
"We do this. It's what we get to do for a living," Hurdle had said. "We don't ride that roller coaster that a lot of people are on."View Full Game Coverage
It may have been a fair generic assessment, but it certainly didn't apply a couple of hours later to catcher Tony Sanchez, who felt the big dipper as his defensive gaffe lowlighted the Bucs' 4-1 loss to the Brewers.
It helped Milwaukee stretch its winning streak to nine by completing the sweep of the Pirates in front of an announced 30,152 in Miller Park.
Yet a rather magnificent thing happened in the aftermath of the completion of the Pirates' first sweep since the Cardinals took it to them on Sept. 6-8. His teammates showed Sanchez unfailing support, to the extent of not conceding that he had done anything unusual.
"Those things happen. Mistakes are made, we've all done it," said Charlie Morton, Sanchez's batterymate. "I don't think Tony had a tough day. He didn't do anything he should be ashamed of."
In that vein, no one on Pittsburgh's bench had any peculiar reaction when Sanchez returned to the dugout in the aftermath of any catcher's worst nightmare: When a simple throw goes wild and turns into two runs.
The Brewers already led 2-1 when they pulled away, not with their bats, but with Sanchez's arm.
"I butchered a routine play," Sanchez would reflect, "and that can't happen in that situation."
In baseball, they say, the ball will always find you, referencing the likelihood of the ball being hit to someone playing out of position. Apparently, you can't hide from phobias, either.
Sanchez has acknowledged his problem with throwing, and has put in a lot of overtime work on getting past it.
Yet in Sunday's sixth inning, it ambushed him out of nowhere, leading to a major hang-your-head moment.
The Brewers had men on second and third with one away when Morton fanned Scooter Gennett on a wicked curve -- so wicked that it also short-hopped Sanchez.
No problem. Seen dozens of times every week across the schedule, calling for the catcher to make the output for the strikeout at first base. It's a routine baseball play. Sanchez came out of his crouch to retrieve the ball, looked the runners back and moved up a few steps to give himself a perfect throwing lane to first.
That is when it became a problem.
"I blew open with the front shoulder, and kinda rushed it," Sanchez said.
His throw went wide of first baseman Travis Ishikawa, into the right-field corner, as Aramis Ramirez scored from third and Lyle Overbay scored from second. The Brewers were up 4-1, and Sanchez's chin was on his chest.
It was a shocking turn of events, and it gave Milwaukee righty -- and Pirates nemesis -- Kyle Lohse all the second wind he needed. Thereafter, he struck out the next five men and retired nine in a row before Andrew McCutchen's two-out single in the ninth had manager Ron Roenicke waving to his bullpen.
"In a one-run ballgame," Sanchez said, "it's hard enough to tie it up against a guy who has all four of his pitches working. Then you put your team down three runs to a guy who is on. Not a good recipe."
The Bucs had pulled into a 1-1 tie in the fourth, when Jose Tabata's perfectly executed hit-and-run single set up a sacrifice fly from McCutchen off Lohse.
"We manufactured that one run off him, but he came back tough, working ahead of hitters," Hurdle said of Lohse, whose career record against Pittsburgh went to 10-2 when Will Smith fanned Pedro Alvarez for the save.
The Brewers had jumped to a 1-0 lead in the third, when Martin Maldonado's leadoff double led to Carlos Gomez's sacrifice fly.
In the fourth, a pair of trends ganged up on Morton to again put him behind. Ryan Braun led off with a double -- his seventh hit in 13 career at-bats against Morton -- and Ramirez followed with an RBI single, his ninth hit of this season in 12 at-bats with a runner in scoring position.
"Braun, I'm sure, was trying to protect in, because I was working him inside, and I threw a pitch middle-away and he went with it [into the right-field corner]," Morton said. "Ramirez … he got to a sinker that I didn't think was a bad pitch at all, down and in. I don't know if he was cheating or just got to it, but he hit it really well."
Holding an extremely hot lineup to two earned runs across seven innings wasn't enough to please Morton.
"No," he said. "We lost. I think I threw the ball OK, but I gave up more runs than Kyle did. And we're out there to win. We have to turn it around."

For over three decades the City of Portland has been working on clean energy policies and programs that have helped our community conserve energy and reduce climate emissions, starting with the City's first Energy Policy in 1979. These efforts were originally led by the Portland Energy Office, which later evolved into the Office of Sustainable Development, now known as the Bureau of Planning and Sustainability (BPS).
Today the City's climate protection efforts are guided by the 2009 City of Portland / Multnomah County Climate Action Plan . Developed by BPS, this report calls for an 80 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, and lists nearly 100 specific actions to steer our region toward this goal. Many of the plan's objectives and actions map directly to the work of BPS' Clean Energy team, which design and implement energy efficiency, renewable energy and neighborhood-scale programs that reduce carbon emissions, create jobs and enhance the livability of our City.

The Killers Postpone European Shows Due to Illness
Killers fans in Belgium and Luxembourg just had their dance cards cleared and their weekend plans canceled, as the band has postponed its weekend shows in those European countries due to an undisclosed "illness."
Specific info on which group member (or members) is under the weather is not yet known, and as is often the case with these things, it may never be revealed to fans or the media. What is confirmed, however, is that the Killers' shows won't happen this weekend. Bum out!
The band was scheduled to take the stage tonight (March 8) in Brussels, Belgium, and in Esch-sur-Alzette in Luxembourg tomorrow (March 9), but the shows were called off a few hours before the band was due to perform.
Luckily, both concerts have been rescheduled for June, so fans that were stoked to see the Las Vegas stadium rockers this weekend now have something to look forward to three months down the road. Brandon Flowers and the gang are certainly worth the wait.

MyTwoCensus Scoop: Census Bureau regional partnership coordinator running as a Democrat for New York State Assemblyman while still on the job
UPDATE: At 10:00, a credible e-mail came in to the MyTwoCensus inbox stating that Mr. Dominguez was upset at his office. At 10:50, I spoke with Steve Jost, Associate Director of the Census Bureau, who informed me that Mr. Dominguez is no longer employed by the Census Bureau. Presumably, he was fired as a result of this scoop.
Rafael Dominguez, a New York-based regional partnership coordinator for the US Census Bureau since early 2008 has filed a petition to run as a Democrat for Assemblyman for New York's 82nd District. Yet, as Census Bureau Associate Director Steve Jost recently commented on a MyTwoCensus.com post, the Hatch Act, "prohibits federal employees from engaging in partisan political activities while on duty."
The problem is not that Mr. Dominguez is running for office, the problem is that he is running for office while an employee of the federal government and campaigning on the Census Bureau/taxpayer's dime. MyTwoCensus.com has also learned that other Census Bureau employees who are underlings of Mr. Dominguez have been performing campaign activities while on official Census Bureau duty. These employees include other partnership assistants in the New York area: Â Ed LaFranco and Adrian Tapia.
New Yorkers should be entitled to a partisan-free census, and Mr. Dominguez's overt Democratic Party affiliations require the Census Bureau to fire him immediately. MyTwoCensus has subsequently learned that Mr. Dominguez used his (massive) budget for partnership materials to fund events and organizations that will benefit his political campaign.
Admittedly, it will be difficult to prove that partnership funding was diverted for specific purposes that relate to the campaign, but such activities should immediately be scrutinized and audited more thoroughly than they already are. (MyTwoCensus.com has learned that the New York Census Bureau's partnership office is currently undergoing a major audit. Perhaps this audit is directly tied to Dominguez and his misuse of funds, but more likely it has to do with rampant excesses by the Census Bureau's partnership specialists.)
Here is the photographic evidence of the campaign activities that Mr. Dominguez has been engaged in while a Census Bureau employee:
Note the Census Bureau's extensive partnership budget that includes $120 million from the stimulus package:

Sixers hire Hinkie as GM
Philadelphia, PA – The Philadelphia 76ers officially hired Sam Hinkie to be their new president of basketball operations and general manager on Tuesday.
Hinkie comes to Philadelphia after eight years with the Houston Rockets, where he served as the executive vice president of basketball operations since 2010 and was responsible for the Rockets' considerable and ground-breaking analytic efforts.
"I am very pleased to announce that we have named Sam Hinkie as the 76ers president of basketball operations and general manager, which I believe to be an important step in building a high-performance organization," said Sixers managing owner Josh Harris. "Sam is a proven innovator and holds values that align with those of our ownership group. Sam's experience, his judgment, and his analytical approach make us confident that he is the right leader to build a foundation for long-term success -- with the goal of ultimately contending for a championship -- here in Philadelphia."
Hinkie's first job will be to hire a coach after Doug Collins resigned following three seasons at the helm.
Philadelphia reached the playoffs in each of Collins' first two seasons, including a trip to the Eastern Conference semifinals in 2012.
The Sixers went on to acquire center Andrew Bynum from the Lakers as part of a four-team blockbuster deal in August of 2012. Bynum, however, never played a game for the 76ers because of knee issues.
With Bynum on the bench, the Sixers struggled to a 34-48 mark this past season.
Philadelphia shipped out Andre Iguodala as well as rookie Moe Harkless and second-year player Nikola Vucevic to acquire Bynum and Jason Richardson, whose season also ended early because of knee surgery.
The Sixers are hoping that Hinkie's analytical skills will help turn the team around.
"Houston Rockets owner Leslie Alexander hired me to bring a data-driven approach to their front office and general manager Daryl Morey allowed me to flourish. I am so fortunate and grateful for the opportunities they both afforded me," said Hinkie. "I agreed to come lead the Sixers because the first, and to my mind, the most important building block is in place: A thoughtful ownership group committed to building a basketball operation that is data-driven, strategic and relentlessly innovative. The challenge ahead of us is real, but I am invigorated to build something lasting for Philadelphia."

Silicon Valley has long been known as the land of young, ambitious tech pioneers.
But the region is becoming more obsessed with looking young, according to a recent article in the New Republic.
The piece by Noam Scheiber paints Silicon Valley as "one of the most ageist places in America." He features Dr. Seth Matarasso, a cosmetic surgeon based in San Francisco whose clientele includes Silicon Valley techies.
He pointed to a striking trend: techies who seek him out looking to tweak the way they look in order to look young are, well, getting younger.
They go for laser treatments to get rid of skin splotches or a skin-tightening treatment called ultherapy. Botox is popular of course. In fact, Matarasso is supposed to be the world's second-biggest dispenser of Botox.
"It's really morphed into, 'Hey, I'm forty years old and I have to get in front of a board of fresh-faced kids. I can't look like I have a wife and two-point-five kids and a mortgage,'" Matarasso was quoted as saying in the piece.
Scheiber cites an emerging Silicon Valley culture in which prominent tech figures "don't think twice about deriding the not-actually old." This was underscored by Facebook Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg's famous statement before a Stanford audience in 2007: "Young people are just smarter," the Facebook founder said.

After a flawless launch at 7:46 this morning, the Space Shuttle Atlantis began its 6600-statute-mile orbital chase to catch the International Space Station where the crew will undertake a full menu of outfitting tasks to prepare the station for its permanent crew. Following the climb to orbit and initial on-orbit activities, the Mission Control Center has settled into working normal operations without any significant issues.
Once in orbit, the crew quickly packed up its ascent suits and unpacked equipment to ready the orbiter for the 11-day mission before turning in at 12:46 p.m. for its first sleep period. The crew will wake up at 8:46 this evening.
During its first full day in space the crew will prepare for Sunday's rendezvous and docking with the station and Monday's early-morning space walk by astronaut Ed Lu and cosmonaut Yuri Malenchenko.
About three hours after the wake-up call, Commander Terry Wilcutt and Pilot Scott Altman will initiate the first burn of the orbiter's Orbiter Maneuvering System (OMS) to continue refining Atlantis' orbit for a precision rendezvous and docking. The docking will occur at about 12:53 a.m. Sunday at an altitude of about 220 statute miles over the Russia and Kazakhstan border north of the Caspian Sea.
Lu, Malenchenko and mission specialist Dan Burbank will unpack, assemble and test spacesuits and checkout the tools Lu and Malenchenko will use as they work on the station's exterior sometimes about 110 feet above the orbiter. The space walk to connect electrical, communications and fiberoptic cables and install a magnetometer to the station will last about 6 and a half hours.
Tonight, mission specialist Rick Mastracchio will check out the remote manipulator system, and then he and cosmonaut Boris Morukov will prepare to transfer station equipment and supplies from the orbiter and the Russian Progress vehicle.
The next STS-106 status report will be issued at about 7:00 a.m. Saturday.

Could Zack Snyder's Sucker Punch be about a troop of burlesque dancers doing meth and samurai sword fighting, while stuck in the muddy trenches during WWI? This new trailer seems to think so, and we love it.
The deeper we get into Snyder's vision for Sucker Punch, the more we have to check ourselves to make sure we're not high. If Snyder had a baby with Baz Luhrmann and then sent it back in time to strip, it would be called Sucker Punch. Haters to the left, on March 25th we're calling our dealer and spending one delightful afternoon starring open mouthed at the hyper-stylized images, fast cuts and crazy happening on Snyder's screen.

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Jack Nicklaus, whose legacy as a champion can be rivaled only by his legacy as a global golf-course designer, businessman and philanthropist, has joined his industry peers on nurturing perhaps one of the most important and lasting blueprints in golf today-ensuring the future of the game. The golf legend, whose 18 major championships set a standard for excellence, joined The PGA of America, United States Golf Association and representatives of Boys & Girls Clubs of America Thursday at the 59th PGA Merchandise Show in support of Golf 2.0. The new comprehensive, strategic plan is designed to retain and strengthen core players, bring former players back, and welcome new golfers to the game.
The 72-year-old Nicklaus teamed with PGA of America President Allen Wronowski; PGA Chief Executive Officer Joe Steranka; and United States Golf Association Executive Director Mike Davis in a media roundtable discussion. They were joined by representatives of the Boys & Girls Clubs of America-The PGA's new Official Youth Development Partner-featuring Board of Governor member Ken Griffey, Jr., the baseball great turned avid golfer and BGCA Senior Vice President of Marketing & Communications Evan McElroy.
Nicklaus said he is familiar with sobering statistics about those who have left the game, and has committed himself to supporting all efforts to secure the core players, engage those who have lapsed, and build the next generation.
"I care about this game; it's given me so many great things for me and my family through the years," said Nicklaus. "This initiative is not a PGA of America initiative; it's not a Jack Nicklaus initiative. This is a golf industry initiative, because it is a golf industry issue. We all have a stake in this. Whatever happens is because of all of us. It's our future."
Among the multi-pronged plan to engage new players is a partnership with Boys & Girls Club of America, a five-year mission that will introduce youth nationwide to the game of golf. Beginning in 46 selected cities, golf training equipment and instructional support from PGA Professionals will be provided through this partnership to help youth build character, develop healthy lifestyles, and learn the game of golf.
"Anything that you are trying to draw to this magnitude, you need the support of the industry stakeholders and partners and relationships," said Wronowski. "You also need very special individuals and great supporters and proponents."
The PGA of America's commitment to Golf 2.0 includes nine Player Development Regional Managers to foster growth in the game in key areas of demand throughout the country. Steranka explained that the retraining of the industry extends well beyond the 27,000 men and women PGA Professionals.
"Now we are extending that training to golf facility owners, operators and non professional staff," said Steranka. "We are going to realign our playing fields to make have some entry level courses in golf park like settings, whether they are at existing courses or whether they are remade through the ASGCA program or portable courses where we can bring a golf course."
Griffey, who began playing golf in 1994 after baseball's second strike, said it was not long before he "was hooked on the game." He said that his oldest son did not want to pursue baseball, and will attend the University of Arizona on a football scholarship.
"I was astounded that he did not want to continue in baseball, but I know that I can ask him if he wants to join me for golf, and he is the first to pack up the car with the clubs. He is now teaching my nine-year-old the game."
Griffey recalled his trepidation of having to play in the same foursome with Nicklaus at Pebble Beach, and was unable to get any sleep. "We get to the golf course, and start on the 10th hole. They read Jack's résumé, which says he's won this five times, that four times and something else three times. He hits it down the middle, Mark O'Meara hits it down the middle, Steve Nicklaus hits it down the middle, and I hit mine dead left. The first words Jack said to me were, 'We have to play our foul balls.'
"But watching over the next 17 holes, how Jack interacted with his son was unbelievable. It was just, they talked about everything, except golf. And, that was the one thing that I took away. I looked at being a young father at the time. That's what I want. When I play golf with my kids, I want to be able to do that."
Griffey said the Golf 2.0 initiatives to build a new generation of players, is part of his motivation when he enjoys time with his family.
"I play a little bit with my Dad here and there, and we talk about everything. I think it's the best time of my life," said Griffey. "I also have this thing called Griffey Force Family Fun. We play Sunday, we play golf; it's usually five of us. We go out, and my youngest is nine, and we have my dad there. And we will tear up a golf course, is what my dad would say. But how many times do we honestly listen to our kids? As kids, you would want your parents to listen to you. Well, here is an opportunity to really do that."
The PGA also announced the launch of a grant program with the ASGCA, its members and the ASGCA Foundation, to fund complimentary facility audits that would study and recommend land use to welcome new players to the game. Among the recommendations within the program are adapting available land for golf's version of "bunny slopes" to heighten the golf experience.
"We are going to take a page out of golf history," said Steranka. "Seventy-five years ago or so, The PGA of America hired A.W. Tillinghast to be a free consultant to America's golf courses to guide them on how to make their courses friendlier after the Great Depression. They had to introduce new players. They had to make the courses friendlier for women. Tillinghast wrote to them, the-then PGA president, that he had deconsecrated 7,000 bunkers in his tour across America."
Nicklaus cited golf's entry into the 2016 Olympic Games as a decisive moment for the game. "It's a pretty big deal in 2016 to be right," said Nicklaus, of golf's appearance in the Summer Olympiad in Rio de Janeiro, for the first time in more than 100 years. "There will be a decision in 2017 on whether to continue with golf in the 2020 Olympics.
"And if 2016 ends right and it is voted back in, think of the effect that's going to have on, not so much the United States, because we are a pretty mature golf market. But take Brazil that doesn't even have a public golf facility; take China, which is just barely starting into the game; take India, which is barely starting into the game; take Russia, which is barely starting into the game.
All of these places that have really supported Olympic sports. The gold medal has always been the prize. It's not the Masters and U.S. Open, PGA Championship or the British Open. It's been about the gold medal."
Steranka said the grant to the ASGCA Foundation is "going to provide the travel expenses for architects who are going to volunteer to give free reviews of American golf courses and how to use the existing land plan. Maybe it's rerouting a hole to expand a range and add in three to six short holes that can be 'bunny slopes' and bring that family out even more to the course."
McElroy pointed to the first meeting between The PGA and the BGCA late last year, and Steranka's ties to the organization from his childhood.
"This is a match made in heaven, and we are thrilled and delighted to enter into this partnership," said McElroy. "When Joe came to us as a former Club kid, he got it. He already understood what Boys & Girls Clubs were all about and he didn't have to do a selling job. He said, I know this can work in terms of fitting into our strategy to grow the game."
Nicklaus said time management works at home as well as the course.
"The parents are being dragged to the parks and the park systems, and they are playing soccer, lacrosse, football, baseball, basketball, you name it," said Nicklaus. "They don't have the time to play golf, and the kids are not being introduced to it…We need to introduce our kids to the game of golf. We need to introduce it to them in a way that is friendly and a way that they can have some early success and stay with the game.
"The same with women. And we can't do it on a five- or six-hour basis. You've got to do it on the basis of when they can find time." Nicklaus said the successful time strategy that could work is: 'I'm going to go play golf tomorrow, and I'll meet you at noon for lunch with the kids, and we'll go spend the afternoon.' They will be able to do that."

Kanye, Kim Kardashian + Baby North Step Out for the First Time
The world is finally getting its first glimpse of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian's baby, North -- sorta.
The family was spotted in public for the first time yesterday (Aug. 14), as they made their way to a doctor's office. TMZ obtained the first pictures of the trio, which can be seen here.
No clear photos of baby Nori have yet surfaced, and in these images the 2-month-old is concealed beneath a blanket. She is being carried in a car seat in a Los Angeles medical facility by a grinning nanny.
It's also our first look at a post-pregnancy Kim, who hasn't been seen out since Nori's birth on June 15. The new mom appears to have slimmed down, although she is wisely wearing baggy clothing -- even sporting another shirt tied around her waist to hide her famous booty.
Kanye is dressed equally casually in a demin button-down and fringed boots, but his most unusual accessory? The enormous smile he wore while walking with his new family!

Identifying Child Abuse
There`s a long list of thing that worry me about some children I know. When the little girl (3 y/o) and boy (5 y/o) visit with their father, the little girl clings to him, acts like a baby (puts her fingers in her mouth, pants while making cooing sounds, doesn`t articulate when she`s in that mode) she won`t sit still, not even long enough to eat, she gets up and runs everywhere, she tried to put a lite-brite peg (little toy piece) into another childs buttocks, bites herself and blames others. Concerns me, and the little boy, he`s manipulative, he hurts other children and preps the other children to pass the blame off on other kids when asked what happened, he when given any time alone with other children has asked them to pull down their pants and "poop" cause he wants to see. They both whine and cry when it`s time to go back to their mommy`s house, they almost have to literally be drug out, either that or their father requests another day/night with them. Should I be concerned that they might be being abused?
Although the behaviors that you are describing sound very undesirable and out of control, they are not specific for child abuse.

Our chapter is one part of a nationwide volunteer network that includes 80 chapters and 70 youth clubs, all aiming to drive the Surfrider Foundation mission to protect and enjoy the world's ocean, waves and beaches through a powerful activist network.
You can think about that as three concepts. "Protect and enjoy" — we don't want to put a velvet rope around a beach and tell people to keep off. We're surfers, we're kayakers, we're beach goers, we're water-lovin' folks… we're all types of folks who enjoy the coast! We're a user group taking action to protect what we enjoy and love.
Next up is "ocean, waves and beaches" — think coastlines; we're engaged with environmental issues that affect our coastlines.
"Powerful activist network" speaks to how we go about this mission. We are a grassroots organization. We're moms, dads, surfers, kids, teens and in-betweens… we're you.

Thanks for the translations Azealh, I didn't expect the corridor of dreams to be an actual place, instersting designs for those new rooms.
I would have really liked to have seen Guts regain Cascas mind himself since they both have a shared trauma, but if Schierke and Farnese do enter Cascas nightmares, or her old memories, this may be a good way for them to learn who Casca is and what drove her mad
Guys the cover of the new upcoming Guidebook has been released I absolutely love it!-cut-
Guys the cover of the new upcoming Guidebook has been released I absolutely love it!
So, so amazing... This is one episode I'll want to keep original. So, may I ask (out of the matter), is it too soon for me to purchase it, or is it already out? I'm not familiar with the releasing dates.
I'm sad for Azan on that illustration, we barely see him.
You can thank that garish cover redesign for that. The illustration is no doubt slightly wider and thus the sides got cut off by the "pillars" on the cover. Another funny thing is that the Dragon Slayer disappears behind Guts' head... Nothing on the other side. I hope we can get the full illustration as well as this version.

Last week, I blogged about the lack of recognition of the Northern Ireland local party of the Liberal Democrats by the Federal Party website.
This evening, quite by chance, I noticed that there is a link at the bottom of the Federal Party's homepage for 'N. Ireland'.
Where does this link go?
It goes to the Alliance Party of Northern Ireland – a sister party within Liberal International. Now, there may have been plans, or indeed hopes, in the past that the Alliance Party would become a State Party of the Liberal Democrats. I am sure that what has happened in the House of Commons, where Naomi Long, Member of Parliament for Belfast East stated before the election that she would not take the Lib Dem whip, makes it clear that there is little chance of Alliance Party = Liberal Democrats in Northern Ireland.
Stephen blogged well over a year ago about making a formal link up*,
The Lib Dems in Northern Ireland have long taken the stance that they would not contest elections but lend support to the most prominent centrist party, which is the Alliance Party with their 7 Assembly Members and 32 councillors.
but this has not happened – nor is it likely to, according to discussions Stephen had with Alliance's executive director, Gerry Lynch. It is a fact that former Alliance leader Lord Alderdice sits as a Liberal Democrat Peer in the House of Lords, but this looks like it will continue to have no effect upon forming a formal link up.
Unless and until the Alliance Party becomes the Liberal Democrats' State Party in Northern Ireland, the Federal Party needs to recognise that they are not this. The local party needs to be publicised, and as chair of the local party, I will be writing (not emailing) to seek the fixing of this. I will update you on the progress.

They have discovered the joys of Monopoly.
Scratch and Cody are always playing together.
Goose made an Algonquin(New England tribe) drum, drumstick and headband.
They turned out great, don't you think?
Scratch and Cody are always playing together.
Goose is trying to master card shuffling. Binky is watching a movie and Daddy is napping. This is how I left them one afternoon and they hadn't moved an inch when I returned!
We have officialy begun our cookie-making season!
I started this a little late but love it! Goose helped cut out the felt leaves and Daddy helped cut the cardboard. Even Binky did some gluing.
We had a very nice Thanksgiving with lots of food and family. I hope yours was just as nice! The weather here has been incredible! LOTS of sun with crisp nights.
Perfect for fires and cocoa!
I can't wait to see what everyone else has been up to!

Sorry, ladies. Bad news for you out there who had dreams of marrying Robert Pattinson. He's now officially off the market thanks to a young girl named Lauren Adkins -- she and RPattz will get married in January in a private ceremony in Vegas. In case you're wondering what Kristen Stewart thinks of the whole thing, well, she's probably cool with it, seeing as Lauren isn't marrying the real Robert Pattinson, but a cardboard cutout of him as Edward Cullen from Twilight.
And you thought you were obsessed. Girlfriend, please.
Lauren insists that she's an artist and that this performance piece is the culmination (Cullenation?) of her Masters in Fine Arts Degree. She was able to raise over $1,200 for the fake wedding to a fake person and has promised her supporters that the nuptials, while privately held in a chapel, will be broadcast on the Internet for everyone to enjoy.
So ... what's her point?
This work focuses on the female escapist fantasy in its most popular forms-- primarily finding "true love"-- and the extent to which it seeps into our real lives ... Because of personal attachment to and experience with this fantasy or quest, which took a particularly strong hold of me when I discovered the intensely popular Twilight Saga, my thesis is going to touch on romantic expectation primarily through the main love interest, Edward Cullen.
Well, then. A little bit obsessive, a little bit real, and a little bit avant garde, Lauren's art piece sure sounds like an interesting excuse to throw herself a wedding and get married to her fantasy.
And the fact that she was able to raise as much money as she did signifies that there are probably a lot of people out there who identify with her fairytale dream wedding ... I mean, thesis.
If Lauren's point was to blend true life and make-believe into one weird-ass exhibit in which she marries a piece of cardboard, then I'd like to go ahead and deem this a rip-roaring success because, honestly, I have no idea what's real anymore.
And I don't know who's crazier for it. Lauren, her donators, me, or poor paper Robert.
What do you think of this "art exhibit"?

OK, I didn't read the books, but let me just say, as pure movie entertainment,"The Hunger Games"is a "wow."
This dystopian drama portrays a society where 24 children between the ages of 12-18 are randomly selected for an annual survivor/gladiator-style tournament to the death. Just living is winning. Or is it?
Katniss Everdeen is already a survivor in an outlying rural district by keeping her family fed and together. When her little sister is chosen to play in the 74th annual Hunger Games, Katniss volunteers to replace her as a "tribute" and is sped off to the Capitol and groomed for this gruesome human chess game. Suddenly, we're not in Kansas anymore.
Jennifer Lawrence (Oscar-nominated for her portrayal of another backwoods girl in"Winter's Bone") is outstanding as Katniss. It's a star-making display of physical and mental toughness as well as natural beauty.
"Games" is an astounding feast for the eyes, using fantastic sets and costumes for the city scenes and lush mountain landscapes. It's unique in that people are challenged by the elements as well as by technology, and a chilling commentary on a society that thrives on blood-soaked pageantry for sport.
This is just the first of a trilogy. Let the games begin.
Weisz shines in 'Deep Blue Sea'
"The Deep Blue Sea"is a classic art house film. It's an intense character study showing the emotional storms wreaking havoc on a woman making major life decisions. Rachel Weisz gives another Oscar-worthy performance as the woman living in the eye of her personal hurricane.
She plays Hester Collyer, the wife of a wealthy aristocrat in postwar London. The damaged city is a fitting backdrop to her dreary but comfortable life. It all begins to unravel when she begins a passionate affair with a former RAF fighter pilot.
She leaves her husband's manor house for a dingy flat in the city to be with her exciting new man. However, this dashing but hard-drinking combat hero takes her on a romantic roller coaster ride that challenges her sanity. To complicate matters, her still caring husband offers the hope of reconciliation.
Over time, her relationships with both men slowly decay. The heart-wrenching situation is amplified by the real anguish Weisz radiates in the role. This excellent small film is very well acted, but it's haunting and painful to watch.
