NEW HAVEN, Conn. - Jeremy Lin scored 19 points to lead four players in double figures as Harvard edged Yale 69-59 in the season finale before a crowd of 1,805 at the John J. Lee Amphitheater. Oliver McNally added 16 points for the Crimson, who snapped a seven-game losing streak to the Bulldogs. Travis Pinick paced Yale with 18 points, eight rebounds and four assists.
The Bulldogs end the season with a 13-15 overall record and an 8-6 Ivy mark, which currently has them all alone in second place. Princeton, with a victory at Penn on Tuesday night, can also finish with an 8-6 league record. Yale was picked to finish third in the preseason Ivy media poll.
In the first meeting with Harvard in February, the Bulldogs shot 55.2 percent and scored 87 points in a 19-point victory. It was a different story on Saturday. It was the Crimson (14-14, 6-8 Ivy) who had the hot night from the field, shooting 52.9 percent, while holding Yale to only 45.8 percent.
"We just had a night where we weren't particularly sharp," said James Jones, The Joel E. Smilow, Class of 1954 Head Coach of Men's Basketball. "Give Harvard credit. They played very well."
The score was tied at 38-38 with 17:33 left, but Harvard seized control with a 15-5 run over the next seven minutes. Yale never got closer than nine the rest of the way. The Bulldogs committed nine turnovers in the second half.
"We turned it over in some key situations," Jones said.
The first half featured five ties and seven lead changes. The Bulldogs took a 15-9 lead on Chris Andrews's three-pointer with 12:03 left, but the Crimson answered with an 8-2 run. Drew Housman's jumper as time expired gave Harvard a 33-32 advantage at the intermission.
Housman finished with 15 points and six assists, while Wright added 11 points and six rebounds.
Yale seniors Pinick, Ross Morin, Chris Andrews, Brandon Rose and Ari Greenberg were all making their last appearance in the Amphitheater and were honored in a pre-game ceremony. Morin finished with 17 points and six rebounds. Andrews scored six points and was forced to play 31 minutes with Porter Braswell out with an illness. Rose took over the backup point guard role and played six minutes.
"I'll have wonderful memories of my time at Yale," said Andrews, who returned for his senior season after missing nearly two years with injuries. "I value every chance I've had to play. I've been able to build a lot of relationships."
Yale's Class of 2009 finished with a 32-24 record in Ivy games. Twice during their tenure, the Bulldogs have entered the final weekend still in contention for the Ivy title.
Yale has now finished with a .500 or better record in league play in each of the last nine years.

Fox News Discovers Nuclear Reactor In Japanese Disco
Blog ››› ››› SIMON MALOY
Earlier today on Fox News' Your World With Neil Cavuto, this map popped up detailing the locations of Japan's nuclear power plants:
One name seems out of place on the graphic -- that of "Shibuyaeggman."
It doesn't show up on the International Atomic Energy Agency's list of Japanese nuclear power stations, and this map of Japanese nuclear installations from the Department of Energy's International Nuclear Safety Center doesn't have any listing for "Shibuyaeggman," and doesn't show a nuclear power plant anywhere near the location on the Fox News map. So I did a little research.
A quick Googling of "shibuyaeggman" turned up no meaningful results. A Nexis search was also fruitless. However, further inquiries revealed that Eggman is the name of a dance club in a trendy neighborhood of Tokyo called... Shibuya. And, it just so happens, the Fox graphic appears to place the alleged reactor in Tokyo. Here's a photo of Eggman -- as you can see, it's right below The @ Super Suits Store. And Johnny Hi-Fi played there in 2006.
Sounds like a fun place. But it doesn't sound like a nuclear power plant.

i work for a major retailer. Patio furniture, grills, etc. go on clearance in mid july to early august, so if you waited for this article to shop, you are too late.
Summer Clearance Cornerstones: 5 Things to Buy Before Autumn Arrives
The apex of back-to-school anxiety, Labor Day, signals the unofficial end of summer.
But it's the start of a fleeting, beautiful season for students of saving: summer clearance.
End-of-summer sales are nearing full swing as the calendar turns to September. Retailers slash prices in a mad dash to clear shelf space in advance of the looming holidays. The final days of summer are a great time for consumers to grab a range of products at steep discounts.
Granted, some of these purchases put a premium on patience. Items like patio furniture, garden equipment and barbecue grills won't spend a ton of time outside the box before cold weather approaches. In that respect, the end-of-summer sale is an exercise in forethought, not to mention supply and demand. It's a heck of a lot cheaper to buy a gas grill in September than in the first few grilling days of June.
Still, implements of fire and flame aren't the only great bargains to be had as autumn nears. Here are a five other hot-ticket items at those summer clearance sales.
Patio Furniture
OK, this isn't markedly different from grills, but it's definitely worth mentioning. Patio tables, chairs, swings and the like tend to take a nose dive in price at summer's end. Fire pits are a bit iffy, mostly because they still get good use on those cool fall evenings. We'll stick garden equipment in here, too. Start making amends now for this year's poor tomato crop.
Swimming Gear
September sales are a great time to nab bathing suits, pool equipment, and other aquatic gear. Pick up a couple sets in preparation for next year's family vacation. Give your children some room to grow and purchase swim suits in larger sizes.
Linens and Things
You might hear it called a "white sale." Bedding, towels and other household linens are often on sale around the Labor Day holiday, thanks in part to the hordes of college students who require careful outfitting. It's also a great time to get beach towels.
Back-to-school sales start earlier than ever these days. There's so much competition in this tight space that consumers ultimately benefit big time when it comes to price points on technology essentials like laptops and computer accessories. It's also a great time for parents and other non-students to upgrade or to snatch up an early holiday gift.
Camping Gear
Stores like REI tend to feature deep discounts on camping and hiking items toward the end of summer. Keep next year's tentative vacation plans in mind when shopping. Depending on your location and climate, you might also find great deals on other outdoorsy products, from bicycles and sunglasses to fishing poles and kayaks.

While you can definitely get a head start in mid-July or early August, I don't think it's too late to capitalize on end-of-summer sales. In fact, I've seen even steeper discounts at some of the Big Box stores in the last couple of weeks, making me wish I'd waited a bit longer to buy our new grill (which I purchased in mid-July).
Thanks for reading.
Great, timely post. I love me some off-season shopping. I bought some inexpensive jeans and sweatshirts early this summer, and just picked up some shorts on clearance last weekend. I didn't think of the linens. I'll have to add sheets to the list along with the grill.
Last year (end of Sept) hubby and I had been looking for a lawnmower. We managed to pick up an electric mower (removable battery) the reg. price was $450 and we offered the manager $150 (ended up settling on $180) all because it was a floor model and the store really didn't want to have to store it over the winter :) There are deals out there, you just have to keep your eye open, and know what you are looking for.
in regards to electronics, if you can wait, I think Black Friday (day after thanksgiving) is the perfect time for electronics.

The founder of "Girls Gone Wild" is set to return before a Florida Panhandle federal judge who witnessed a tearful, nose-blowing apology from the young multimillionaire in 2007.
Joe Francis is due in Judge Richard Smoak's court on Nov. 20 for a hearing involving four women who say Francis' company filmed them when they were underage. Francis' attorneys want the case thrown out and the women's attorneys want him to pay.
In 2007, Francis sobbed and asked to be freed from a Panama City jail. Smoak jailed him for contempt of court after Francis yelled at attorneys during settlement negotiations in another case.
The "Girls Gone Wild" video series features women exposing themselves on camera.

12 July 2008
Liverpool 1-0 Tranmere
Darby Carragher Hobbs Agger Insua
Pennant Plessis Lucas Benayoun
Second half:
Skrtel Hyypia Agger
Degen Spearing Plessis Aurelio Insua
Flynn Pacheco
Gerrard for Plessis 66'
Voronin for Pacheco 66'
Kelly for Agger 77'
Benayoun 43'
Liverpool was announced as a 4-4-1-1, but the formation looked like a 5-4-1 to me, with the fullbacks often getting forward in support, in the first half. Even with five defenders on the pitch, Liverpool rarely had to defend.
For 44 minutes, it looked like the away side was going to go without a goal despite all their good work. Liverpool had all the possession and were creating chances, but Tranmere did well to deny Pacheco much space. That Liverpool only had one forward allowed Tranmere to mark Pacheco with both center-backs, although Pennant, Benayoun and Lucas attacked more as the half went on.
Even without a goal, Benitez would have been pleased with the performance in the first 45. Despite the pressure, Pacheco never looked out of his depth, nearly scoring in the 18th minute after good interplay with Lucas, chipping a shot over an out-of-position Coyne from the right of the box only to see the effort go wide. He almost struck again in the 37th when he latched on to Carragher's nice ball over the top only for the keeper to make an excellent sprawling save.
Others threatened as well. Insua's shot from distance (that looked to be on target) was blocked by Chorley in the 28th, while his run down the left and centered ball nearly led to an own goal in the 34th. Following the subsequent corner, Pennant cannoned a shot off the top the crossbar.
But two minutes before halftime, Benayoun got Liverpool's first goal of 08/09 with a delicious curler from the left side after Hobbs' shot was blocked and Lucas couldn't get on the end of it. There's no way I can do Yossi's goal justice; it was even better than the screamer he scored against Reading last year.
Even with the chances in the first half, the pace was that of a preseason match. But it dropped even more in the second half, more so after the substitutions.
In fact, although Voronin had a couple of nice touches (and actually could have gotten the second in the final minute, but chose to pass instead of shoot), Liverpool was more threatening when Pacheco was on the field. Tranmere defended with 10 men for long stretches, but began to play better after 75 minutes, and put two headers wide of Cavalieri's goal in the space of 90 seconds.
There was nothing to be concerned about over the drop in tempo in the second half. It's the first game of the preseason, and the fact that a good mix of young reserves, new signings and senior players did well together, coupled with a gorgeous goal by Benayoun is an excellent result.
But out of everything, I was happiest to see Dan Agger look like his old self in 77 minutes on the field. There's a reason I keep writing that Agger was sincerely missed last season. Following today's performance, it sure looks as if using three center backs has crossed Benitez's mind.
After everything I wrote since May, Liverpool didn't use a 4-2-3-1 formation at all. The major tactical similarity between the two halves was wing-backs getting forward at every opportunity. Darby, Insua and Degen all filled this role, although I was surprised to see Degen play so centrally at times. He certainly looked willing to attack though.
Following this match, I'm a bit more upset I won't be able to catch the next friendly against Lucerne, if there will even be a stream. It sure looks like it'll be tactically interesting, with Benitez willing to use these friendlies to experiment with the team's shape. Last year, Liverpool played in a fairly straightforward 4-4-2 no matter the personnel in every preseason game I saw.
6 comments :
I really was only interested in the appearances of Agger and Degan and neither disappointed. The distribution of Agger was apparent from the early goings when her dropped that 40 yard ball on Pacheco's foot, in stride even.
Degan looked fit, quick, and most importantly, energetic. Our full backs seem to have been stagnant as of late. (Also good to see Fabio)
I figured I would give the LFC e-season-ticket thing a month trial. So far, so good though the Mac/Windows Media Player combo has been poor. The Tranmere game came in great this morning on RealPlayer, and fyi, there will be a stream of the Lucrene game on LFCTV.
What methods do you use to see games Nate? I'm in the states as well, so any advice would be appreciated.
- Mike Georger said...
there were like 15 streams for todays game, for a preseason match thats ridiculous
last years midweek preseason games were much easier to watch when i was unemployed, now i can only watch the weekend ones
- Mike Georger said...
html for the win!
Mike - where are you getting these streams? Pc/Mac? Help a brother out - I'm out of my element.
- nate said...
yeah, i watched via the link mike tried to put up, myp2p.eu.
they've had a bunch of weird streams that work on macs and load within the internet browser. long may it continue.
YNWA truly...thanks mates.
Don't think my connection will handle it, but it's still pretty nice. I'll probably have to stick with the torrents and avoiding eye contact with scores for 1.5 days...

More boards
The Rusty Dwart has been a mainstay in the Rusty range for nearly a decade. We can't really build a "better Dwart", in fact plenty of people have tried and failed. Yet, with so many satisfied repeat customers we decided it was time to expand the family…Introducing the Dwart Too. The Dwart Too redirects the original mission a little bit, and refines a well-tuned machine into a precision alternative.View Board
In 2014 Rusty Preisendorfer hooked up with Mark "Occy" Occhilupo and did a 100 board reissue of his famous signature "84" model. A year ago Rusty started getting asked to lean out the nose and lose the beak. In addition, he modernized the bottom slightly. The surfers who tried them freaked. Since then Rusty has made them with 4 deep channels. He also decided to give a very modern bottom with a deep single to double concave a shot. Bottom line is that virtually anyone that has tried any of the different bottoms has been psyched and some have also ordered them longer as well.View Board
The Chupacabra is a high volume groveler with a pure Venturi channel with no spine (the stringer stays up high at the center) to create speed. The board has very low rocker with a very light concave running through the center to flat in between the fins ending onto a very light vee at the end of the tail. It has a very high and pronounced wing that breaks the outline flow creating a quick turning point. The tail is a generous round with planning surface, and yet tight turning arcs in the pocket.View Board

The idea behind the Torsion Spring is to create a one piece hull where the left side talks to the right side with dynamic flex without losing kinetic energy from the wave. This core gives you the quiet, smooth, feeling of a polyurethane board but the lightness of an EPS board. Fully waterproof, if you get a small ding, you don't have to worry about ending your session. The carbon kevlar tape we use along the rail in this I-Beam construction resists buckling and really helps you load up on any turn and helps you harness that energy without losing any of it. We use Biaxial cloth to increase compression resistance without noticeably affecting the flex. Rusty's Torsion Spring is a technology that you can apply to just about any model we make. AVAILABLE WITH OR WITHOUT THE FLAME LOGOView Board
New in 2017, the Heckler is a Fish with some new ideas. We've utilized a "fishy" outline with a shallow dovetail and pronounced wing to produce a lightning fast small wave wonder. The proven Venturi bottom design that has been so well received on two of our other models, The Rooster and The Hustler, adds a new dimension for fishing and Fish lovers.View Board
The Slayer has been a favorite for 10+ years. From time to time we've been asked if we could make it a little looser off the top and bottom. Thus, the Slayer 2. The Slayer 2 has the wide point pulled back towards the midpoint. This tends to pull in the nose and give more curve to the tail section. It has slightly more rocker on both ends and has a light double barrel vee (Slayer 1 has a single concave).View Board
The new "SD" or, San Diego shortboard, is designed to be the ideal go-to shortboard for Southern California. The "SD" performs well in everything from the softer beachbreaks of Del Mar and Leucadia to the hollow reef breaks of La Jolla and Sunset Cliffs. Because of the versatility of the SD design it is the ideal one board quiver for a trip to anywhere on the East Coast.View Board
We consider the Chew Toy to be the ideal "step-up groveler or hybrid", as it will handle a much broader range of waves and conditions than most other boards in those categories. Derived from our long time favorite "Piranha", The Chew Toy features a few modern tweaks to improve the performance and versatility.View Board
If you're a fan of speed…The Big Block can find speed on the most humble, meek and meager little waves. The Big Block is a high volume surfboard with massive surface area that can generate speed easily and effortlessly through any section. Offered in all our constructions but preferred in our stringerless EPS/Epoxy, the Big Block model includes grab rails for strength and a carbon strip along the center of the bottom. Big Block versatility is increased by utilizing a tri-fin box system that works well with either a traditional thruster fin setup or the T1 Twin fin with trailer.View Board
The Mi Amigo is a high performance board with an old foil revisited. The rocker is relaxed at both ends and the template has a 2.5 inch difference in width between the nose and tail. The bottom features a light single concave that is deepest between the feet, approximately 0.15 inches.View Board
Model 8 is an update from the 2016 best seller Sista Brotha model. A high performance board with a low rocker thru out the front creating extra speed and drive combined with a single concave, full forgiving rails and some extra tail rocker kick to help find those tight pockets but still allows you to drive on open faces. AVAILABLE WITH OR WITHOUT THE FLAME LOGOView Board
Rusty designed and built a Twin Fin for Josh Kerr just prior to a trip to Norcal... to say Josh loved it is putting it mildly.

The Piranha was one of our most popular designs. It was primarily built for small surf, but it ended up being a very versatile board. We have re-tooled this design with a clean, full, round pin, and are calling it the Smoothie. It has a timeless outline designed to accommodate a wide range of conditions. The bottom starts with a slight roll in the nose transitioning to a light single through the center. This shallow single blends into a sunken double concave in front of the fins and an elevated double concave between the fins that finally ends in a double barrel vee of the tail. If you can't appreciate the tech talk, just know that the board surfs fast & smooth. NOTE: This price does not include a spray colour. You can add a colour in the check out for +$50View Board
The Enough Said has a moderate tail rocker with a generous nose rocker designed to work from small to medium good quality waves. It features a straight plan shape for increased acceleration and drive. The bottom has a medium single concave throughout the board. This board is fast and loose and a good performer in everyday conditions.View Board
This performance short board excels in all conditions from beach breaks to point breaks and even on reefs – it's the perfect all-rounder. The Rusty Sista Brotha board features a single concave, moderate entry rocker and a low tail rocker with a fuller rail, making this a lively board.View Board
Developed for the bigger days chasing down peaks in open waters and battling currents, it is the perfect wave-hawking weapon. It features added volume, an area-forward outline, lower entry rocker and a light vee in the nose, allowing it to paddle into anything, even in the toughest of surf conditions. With a slight single to double concave bottom running through the fins and rounded pintail, the Blackbird delivers smooth transitions and fast, clean lines.View Board
Introducing the newest edition to the Rusty quiver, this small wave board is ideal for that knee to shoulder high day. Its limits are yet to be determined. Think low volume but high surface area. This board paddles and planes with ease. Combine the double-barrel concave and short board rails and it allows you to whip it around on a dime. We designed it with the five fin setup for even more versatility. Our team riders across the globe have been giving the Happy Shovel two thumbs up… a fun board to surf.View Board
Built for conditions the world over, from point breaks to beach breaks and everything in between. The Kerrosover has a single concave, pulled down rails and we have added volume under the chest for extra paddle power. Good all round board.View Board
The Buckshot is our new hi-fi modern short board model. It is slightly wider in the nose with a fuller squash tail with the pod around 7-8 inches. The entry rocker is relaxed but the tail rocker is increased giving you more speed and drive off the bottom and maximum release with little effort off the top. Due to these combinations you can order this in your standard short board dimension and reap the benefits.View Board
This is the gotta-have board in your travel quiver. The Traveler is a design that is geared towards waves with some solid push but is still a good ride in the medium stuff.View Board
Ok, thank you Kelly for the inspiration. Start with a board designed as a next one up and take 4" off the front end. The wide point is now 2" forward of center instead of 2" back. Add a touch of width to the center. Re-blend everything so the front end has a little fuller nose and relaxed rocker. It paddles well, makes the drop and fits because it's shorter. The back end of the board is meant for better waves. Pulling the wide point forward gives you a rail line that feels a little longer yet offers you more control with less board up front. Lots of R&D last summer. Pros and bros slayin dragons and draining dungeons in Mex, South Pacific and Indo. Feedback is super positive. Little tool, big job.View Board

Now we want to prepare to add an address bar.
Replace the __init__ method with:
self.widget = QWidget()
layout = QVBoxLayout(self.widget)
self.web = QWebView(self.widget)
Now instead of having the QWebView as our top widget we have a plain QWidget. This widget contains a layout which is not a visible widget but ensure child widgets are put in a sensible place. It is a QVBoxLayout which will put widgets in a vertical colum.
See the full code.
This version will look the same as the previous.

Build a Simple iptables Firewall
Simple iptables Firewall
This simple firewall is OK for a desktop system so that you can use it and then modify it later and in the process learn iptables. The script will work with basically any Linux distro and of course you must make all modifications as root. Be sure to test your set up before you depend upon it.
Create the script with a text editor and save it in /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall . Change the permissions so that it is executable:
chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall
One modification you must make is to place the IP Address of the DNS server you want to use and replace:
Here is the script:
# Simple firewall placed in /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall
# chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall
iptables -F
iptables -X
iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT
iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p udp -s your_dns_server_ip –sport 53 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp –syn -j REJECT
iptables -A INPUT -p udp -j REJECT
Explanation of the Script:
This script will clean out all previous rules when it starts and will provide you security in that it will not allow any computer to initiate a connection to your box. This is the line that shows no –syn connections.
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp –syn -j REJECT
That way you have a simple firewall and you can add to it later.
If you want the script to start automatically on boot edit your /etc/rc.local file and add the line:
sh /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall
Here is an example of rc.local.
#!/bin/sh -e
# rc.local
# This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.
# Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
# value on error.
# In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
# bits.
# By default this script does nothing.
sh /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall
exit 0

pretty confusing
May 13, 2009 at 2:48 pm
You should ALWAYS have policy REJECT and NEVER have policy ACCEPT.
That is base facts when you create a firewall. That is becouse you should specify WHAT to accept. If you make a mistake with policy REJECT, you will prob. notice it and make the firewall work.
With policy ACCEPT, you can as well remove the firewall all together, as it depends on you closing all ports that you are not shore is safe (which is most of them).
# So always start with remove all old rules
iptables -F
# Remove all non-standarde user chains
iptables -X
# Set policy to REJECT
iptables -P INPUT REJECT
iptables -P OUTPUT REJECT
iptables -P FORWARD REJECT
# If we do not want to be a router, we do not need to change FORWARD filter in table filer
# ALWAYS allow send to loopback end recive from loopback
iptables -t filter -A INPUT -i lo -j ALLOW
iptables -t filter -A OUTPUT -i lo -j ALLOW
# Now, we can assume that we can send all in this simple example
iptables -t filter -A OUTPUT -j ALLOW
# But we only allow ssh into our machine
iptables -t filter -A INPUT -sport 22 -j ALLOW
# etc

"In business, I look for economic castles protected by unbreachable 'moats'." – Warren Buffett
The best kinds of businesses that I love are the ones with strong economic moats. They are often characterized by supernormal profits and high returns on capital. In this post, I characterize the different economic moats that exist.
Companies with profitable margins are often eroded over time. The bubble tea craze a few year back is a textbook case. Initial start-ups were immensely profitable and its novelty soon became a craze. Competitors soon entered the market and before long, the once profitable industry became over-saturated and profits plummeted.The bubble tea industry is one in which firms possess virtually no economic moat at all. Coupled with the fact that entering the industry was relatively low, pioneers of bubble tea were soon unable to maintain past profit margins.
You will often find firms with economic moats to be extremely profitable in the long run – provided that their competitive advantage is maintained.
|Type of Moat
|Intangible Assets
|Tiffanys & Company, Nike, Coke
|Customer Switching Costs
|Adobe. Microsoft
|Network Effect
|Microsoft, Visa, eBay
|Cost Advantages
Intangible Assets – Brands, patent and regulatory licences. Patents of drugs drives profits from pharmaceutical companies – one reason why they are so highly guarded. Strong brand names such as Nike or Tiffanys & Co. allow companies to charge much higher premiums as compared to their competitors. If consumers are willing to pay a premium for a brand name – you have evidence of a moat.
Customer Switching Costs – Adobe has come to become the gold standard for image editing software. Most designing firms run using its propriety software not because it' cheap but because were trained using Adobe Photoshop. Switching to cheaper software doesn't make sense as any savings made will most likely be offset by the loss of productivity (not to mention the risk involved).
Network Effect- Credit card companies are a prime example of this economic moat. You'll find that shops readily accept cards like AMEX or VISA. Competitors who try to enter the market will be hard pressed to competing against well established networks.
Cost Advantages – Dell, famous for their optimizing and reducing cost in the process flow has done exceedingly well compared to its competitors. By cutting out the middle-man and selling directly to consumers, they have a comparative advantage against well established players like HP.
This list is by no means exhaustive but merely acts as a good reference point.
I recommend reading "The Five Rules for Successful Stock Investing" as a great primer for learning more about economic moats in different industries. I also recommend "The Little Book That Builds Wealth" as a secondary reading.
I will be covering economic moats of locally listed companies in my next post. Look out for it!

Curry / Ellis / Klay / D Lee / Udoh looked pretty good. I like having KT instead of Dorrell because he gives them another guy who can handle the rock and make plays, while still being able to stretch the floor. Also Klay's defense is underrated. Would like to see that lineup experimentation for a few games just to see if it's an improvement.
Agree 100%.
Is anyone against Biedrins-Udoh front courts, at least in small doses? I like the sound of those two smash mouths throwing arms around in the paint.
I would like to see this in small douse, but I think the fact that if one of them gets in foul trouble, or both of them do, you are seriously risking having to play ultra small. Also wouldn't mind seeing Udoh start at Center, and bring beans off the bench. I know coach won't go for it, but I think it would be better to get Udoh's hustle in the beggining of the games, and throw Beans in against their non starting centers.
I worry about Udoh starting at center... As gritty as he is, he's still 6'10" in lift shoes. And even though he can play center in small doses, I prefer playing him at the 4.

Hello, everyone. I was an atheist until at the age of 27 I began to study the Bible in order to debunk it. I learned quickly that the Bible was grossly misrepresented by apostate Christendom's adoption of pagan teachings such as the immortal soul from Socrates, the trinity from Plato, the cross from Constantine, hell from Dante and Milton, Easter from Astarte, Christmas from the winter solstice celebrations, and most recently the Rapture from Darby.
Though I have never and will never be a part of organized religion, my beliefs are not entirely dissimilar to that of The Jehovah's Witnesses, due to the removal of the aforementioned pagan influence. I have studied briefly the history of the major world religions, Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, Shintoism and Taoism and have published sacred and non-sacred texts from each of these online: The Dhammapada, Four Noble Truths, Paradise Lost, Divine Comedy, Analects Of Confucius, Bhagavad Gita, Qur'an, Pirqe Aboth, Nihongi, Kojiki, Tao Te Ching and Chuang Tzu.
Having been an atheist most of my life and given that nearly everyone I know is atheist, I think I understand and respect where most of you are coming from. I don't believe in "converting" anyone to anything, but I do think the atheist tends to be mislead when it comes to the Bible. Not that that matters much, except for that I do enjoy, given the opportunity, to correct them in thoughtful and polite discussion and debate.
I hope we can have some interesting conversations.

If you choose not to believe you still have a belief.
I believed that you were incorrect. That is, until I wrote this, and totally confused myself.
This does seem to be a cognitive artifact that developes from 'belief'. For the infected/true believer, the 'belief', that others see/attribute, becomes a 'truth'.
Sadly, that truth is given an excessive degree of confidence/certainty. Holding every idea as suspect, waiting for that wonderful piece of validation, can be unsettling, but believing nuttyness can give atleast a short term degree of stability.
I do wonder how many of us settle for nuttyness, and never find out about our error even on our death beds? Ignorance is bliss?
That is why I try, in vain, of course, to educate people on the Bible.
Why the bible? Why not the Mahabharata?
Please, explain, and provide tangible, testable evidence, as to why you came to the conclusion that the bible is true, and the other 2799 other god stories are not.
This has been said over and over, to every single theist that comes here to "educate asshole atheists;" the burden of proof is on the believer. You claim extraordinary claims, it is up to you to prove them, not to us to disprove them. If I tell you I can fly, and you should worship my dog's balls, because I can fly, you will want me to demonstrate my flight ability. You will demand real, tangible, testable evidence of my extraordinary claim. Just as we ask from you, and any other theist that happens to pop by to enlighten us on how they perceive the bible with some higher sense (Divine Inspiration?) that other theists don't possess.
And as much as you rail against the notion, you are a theist. You are a Christian. You are not, as some have suggested, a deist. You believe the bible, you are Christian. Just like every Christian, you have your own way to interpret it, so it feels right.
Again, show us real, tangible, testable evidence of why we should believe that the bible story holds any more credibility than all the other god stories in human history, and we will discuss it like adults. Until then, you are, with your 17 years of debating experience, providing the same argument that every other theist does. Your bible is not proof of it's correctness, just like Harry Potter is not proof of Hogwarts.
The ball is, and has always been, in your court. Show us extraordinary evidence for your extraordinary claims.
Thank you, we will wait.
".. to educate people on the Bible. Not to make ignorant Christians or Atheists but rather to make informed Christians or Atheists. At least as much as this is possible. "
Ahh, good the truth comes out and is made clear. How is this working for you? What if your ill informed version of 'truth', is not received, will you resort to tantrums and name calling again.
I am not really interested in returning to your feeding bucket. I spent about 1/4 of my life there, 1/4 too long, and allowed christian bullys way too much slack.
Wrong David, archaeopteryx.
I'm David L. Henson, and there are many of those as well.
How, easy it must be to be wrong. Being atheist and all.
That's my site, though I haven't put up any of my old writings yet. Just music, art and videos to start out.
Usually ever 8 weeks we get a new Theist who assumes he must be the first to arrive on this Atheist site and proceed to explain his version of the Bible to us. I can almost hear a hammer blow in their minds when they eventually "get" what we mean by EVIDENCE. Then it is usually a silent retreat. In the past we used to offer them PANCAKES.
I think it was a noble tradition and should be revived for the New Year. What say you all??
Thanks a lot, Robert! Now I'll never be able to eat pancakes again!
Nice try, but I can still see Palin's face and that innocuous smile --(shudders)
You HAD to show me Palin again - what are you trying to do, put my sex life on permanent hold?!
I agree completely. This should be amusing

High-Wire Artist Nik Wallenda Plays A Game Called 'Whoops'
In June 2012, Nik Wallenda — of the great Wallenda Family circus dynasty — walked across Niagara Falls on a tightrope. On June 23, he plans to cross the Grand Canyon the same way. Wallenda has also recently written a memoir called Balance: Christian Faith and Miraculous Results.
Wallenda's job requires great precision and care. Other people's jobs? Not so much. We've invited Wallenda to play a game called "Whoops!" Three examples of extreme clumsiness, stupidity or both, taken from an annual compilation of odd workers' comp claims put together by lawyer Thomas Robinson.
And now the game where we ask people with extraordinary talents do something that makes no use of those talents whatsoever. So almost exactly one year ago, Nik Wallenda, part of the great Wallenda family circus dynasty, walked across Niagra Falls on a tightrope on Live TV. He must have missed the ferry, I don't know.
SAGAL: He has a new memoir out called "Balance," and in just two weeks or so he will attempt to cross the Grand Canyon on a tightrope. Nik Wallenda, welcome to WAIT WAIT...DON'T TELL ME!
SAGAL: You know, there are easier ways to get places, Nik.
NIK WALLENDA: I was thinking there were easier ways to get a round of applause.
SAGAL: So let's do a little bit of your background, and then we really want to talk to you about this Grand Canyon thing you're planning. So you are the great-grandson of Karl Wallenda, the famous aerialist, the head of the Flying Wallendas, right?
WALLENDA: That's correct. Actually my family started performing back in the 1780s, so over 200 years now we've been performing, and I'm now the seventh generation carrying on that illustrious industry.
SAGAL: Right, yeah, of circus work. And you...
WALLENDA: Of wearing spangles.
SAGAL: Actually I noticed this, that at least in the recent videos of you I've seen, including your great Niagara Falls walk, the first man ever to walk across the whole falls on a tightrope, right?
WALLENDA: That's correct.
SAGAL: Right. You didn't wear a spangly suit.
WALLENDA: I don't. Actually, the last time I wore a spangly suit, I think I was 12 years old.
SAGAL: Right.
WALLENDA: I wear jeans and a T-shirt for most of my events.
TOM BODETT: Twelve is a painful age for spangles.
WALLENDA: It is, trust me.
SAGAL: Because, honestly, we've seen some of your videos, and you're doing these amazing things, but you're dressed like an entirely normal person. So it looks like you're not so much a trained acrobat and aerialist but some drunk guy who happened to have found this tightrope and is like, oh, this is a way to get to Canada, we'll try that out.
SAGAL: So getting back to you growing up, I've read your memoir, and one of the things you talk about is growing up, how incredibly difficult it is and was to make your living in the circus. And you had to work hard. You, like, bussed tables in a restaurant for years to support yourself.
WALLENDA: That's right. I did a little bit of everything: bussing tables, waited tables, you know, everything you can imagine.
BODETT: Could you hold a lot of trays and plates?
WALLENDA: Oh, absolutely.
SAGAL: Now you did this stunt, you were the first person ever to do it. You walked across Niagara Falls on live TV, and you have a tether on holding you to the wire. And we were told that you really didn't want to do that.
WALLENDA: I didn't. You know, for generations, it's been passed on to our family that a safety device - a net, a tether - is a false sense of security. One of my great-grandfather's older brothers actually fell into a net and bounced out, and because of that he was adamantly against them. And his thought process was, and what he's passed on, is that if you have a safety device, your mindset is you're at ease, and your thought is, it's OK, we can use it.
SAGAL: Right.
WALLENDA: And to answer that question, my network partner came in two weeks prior to that event, about two and a half weeks prior, and said we're not going to air this unless you wear a tether. It was a surprise to all of us. We really don't know why it came on. And I had to wear a tether, which was extremely nerve-wracking because I'd never worn one up until then. And I was more nervous that it was going to get caught on something as I was walking and that it was going to cause me to fall.
SAGAL: Right, because that would be scary.
WALLENDA: It would be.
SAGAL: Now what's interesting to me is, as you say, there was a famous tragedy in your family in the early '60s where they were doing I guess the seven-person pyramid, and they fell. And as you say, an uncle of yours hit the net. And if I was watching somebody on a tightrope and I watched him fall into the net and then he bounced out of the net and hit the ground, I would not think the problem with that scenario was the net.
SAGAL: I would think you shouldn't be up there in the first place.
WALLENDA: You know, it is hard for people, and I do try to look at it from the other side. I started walking a wire at the age of two. And I think my great-grandfather Karl Wallenda said it best. He said, life is on the wire, and everything else is just waiting. And for our family, that really is true. This is really the life that I know.
SAGAL: Well, you're out there, I mean, you're not working in circuses. You're doing stuff in buildings and across Niagara Falls and pretty soon across the Grand Canyon. So what are the dangers? I mean, do you worry about a bird flying up and getting in your face? What's the weirdest thing that's happened?
WALLENDA: You know, I have had birds land on my balancing pole. I have been stung by a bee while performing. All of that really, it really comes down to training and preparation. Actually when I was younger, my parents, as I was training, would sneak up behind me and shake the wire - of course I was down low - but just so that they knew - they'd throw a pinecone at me so I was distracted - that they knew that I would have enough focus to be able to stay on the wire no matter what would come at me.
SAGAL: So your parents' parenting skills were...
SAGAL: Put you up on high wire, and they'd stand there and throw pinecones at you. So tell us about - I'm really curious about this. You're going to be - you're going to cross the Grand Canyon.
WALLENDA: That's correct, on June 23rd, live on the Discovery Channel.
SAGAL: Right, live we hope. And you're going to...
WALLENDA: Well, it'll start out live, I guarantee you that much.
SAGAL: You will be live at one end. And this is - how far across is it?
WALLENDA: It's approximately 1,400 feet across and about 1,500 feet high. It's actually higher than the Willis Tower or the Sears Tower.
SAGAL: Oh, yeah, what we used to call the Sears Tower here in Chicago. So that's pretty high. And you're going to be out there, and this time apparently you're not going to have a tether and certainly not a net.
WALLENDA: That's correct.
SAGAL: And you have not lined the Grand Canyon with pillows or anything like that.
WALLENDA: Not yet. I'm working on that sponsor.
SAGAL: And what is your pre-walk ritual?
WALLENDA: It isn't anything you would expect. I'm not superstitious at all. I give my wife and kids a hug and a kiss and say see you in a few minutes, just like I do when I go out to get groceries at night.
SAGAL: I don't want to know how you get to the grocery store.
SAGAL: But really, you just say OK, time to do the stunt?
WALLENDA: That's right, yeah. There's nothing, nothing exciting.
Nothing exciting of walking across the Grand Canyon.
BODETT: Yeah. Way to sell it, Nik.
SAGAL: OK, Nik Wallenda, we have invited you here to play a game we're calling...
BILL KURTIS: Whoops.
WALLENDA: Not one you often want to use in my line of business.
SAGAL: No, no, no, last thing you want to hear somebody like you say. Your job requires precision, grace, care; other people's jobs not so much. We've got some examples of extreme clumsiness, stupidity or both, taken from an annual compilation of unusual Worker's Comp claims but together by lawyer Thomas Robinson. Answer two questions about these dumb moves correctly, and you'll win our prize for one of our listeners, Carl Kasell's voice on their home voicemail. So, Bill, who is aerialist Nik Wallenda playing for?
KURTIS: Cathie Lawler of Cary, North Carolina.
SAGAL: All right, ready to play?
WALLENDA: I'm ready.
SAGAL: All right, here is your first question: In 2012, a woman tried to sue for an injury she sustained at her job teaching at a high school when what happened: A, she got lead poisoning from constantly chewing her pencils, nervous habit; B, she had traumatic stress from, quote, "seeing how those kids dress these days"; or C, she turned and ran straight into a concrete wall when a co-worker showed her a snake.
WALLENDA: I'm going to say B.
SAGAL: You're going to say B, she had traumatic stress from, quote, "seeing how those kids dress these days"?
WALLENDA: That's my guess.
SAGAL: Yeah, you have teenage kids, don't you?
WALLENDA: I do.
SAGAL: Yeah, no actually it was C, the one with the wall in the snake. What happened was that the snake had been confiscated from a student, and the assistant principal stopped by this woman's school room and said hey, look at this. And she went ahh and immediately ran into the wall. Her claims of injuries and post-traumatic stress from the incident were denied.
However, even though that happened, a North Carolina office manager did get compensated for an injury she sustained when she did what: A, doing a classic face-palm gesture while holding a cream pie, sploosh; B, trying to ride down the escalator rail after a big employee dinner; or C, doing a trust fall with people, it turns out, she should not have trusted.
WALLENDA: I'm going to say B.
SAGAL: Trying to ride down the escalator. You're right.
SAGAL: It was a big dinner at one of these conferences. She had had a lot to drink, and she, I guess, decided to make like a Wallenda. She thought it would be fun to slide down the escalator rail. It wasn't. She fell, hurt herself, but she got compensated.
All right, last question, if you get this right, you'll have made it to the other side successfully. In 2009, a young worker in Illinois received compensation for an injury he suffered in what the court referred to as an act of chivalry. What did he do: A, he chased down a co-worker who he thought had stolen his officemate's salad dressing.
SAGAL: B, he was trying to dislodge a bag of Fritos from a vending machine with a, quote, "shoulder block"; or C, he was leaning out the window to release a spider the receptionist refused to let him squish.
WALLENDA: I'm going to say B.
SAGAL: You're going to say B, he was trying to dislodge the bag of Fritos from the vending machine?
WALLENDA: That's my guess.
SAGAL: You're right.
SAGAL: That's what he was doing. You know how it is, the co-worker, you know, had put the money in to get the Fritos. They were hanging there on the little spiral, and he's like I'll take care of it, and he gives it a shoulder block, and he manages to fracture his own hip.
SAGAL: No word on whether the co-worker got the Fritos. Bill, how did Nik Wallenda do on our quiz?
KURTIS: He got two out of three, that's a percentage that does not work in Nik's line of work.
SAGAL: But he did win, though, didn't he?
KURTIS: He won. Everybody wins on this show.
SAGAL: You're being funny.
KURTIS: Two out of three.
SAGAL: Nik Wallenda is the author of the new book, "Balance: A Story of Faith, Family and Life on the Line." And you can watch Nik walk across the Grand Canyon live on TV on "Skywire Live with Nik Wallenda" June 23rd on the Discovery Channel. Nik, before we let you go, I've got to ask. In the theater you say break a leg. What do you say to wire walkers?
WALLENDA: I'm good with break a leg.
SAGAL: All right, break a leg, Nik. Nik Wallenda, thank you so much for joining us.
BODETT: Thanks, Nik.

Meet & Eat: Nathan Lurz, Serious Eats Chicago Intern
Interviews with our contributors.
Editor's Note: I'm pleased to announce that we have another new intern at Serious Eats Chicago. For the past month, Nathan Lurz has been bringing us sandwich dispatches from the far North Side. But, as you'll learn below, he also has a weakness for Thai curries. In fact, I'll just let him take it from here.
Name: Nathan Lurz
Location: Rogers Park, Chicago
Occupation: Freelance Journalist
Twitter: @LurzBlurbz
Guilty pleasures? Has to be Fettuccine Alfredo. When I was little, it's practically all I ever ordered at restaurants. Then, unfortunately, age and knowledge of the mysterious and awful "calorie" crept into the equation, so now I can't quite binge like I used to. Now I mostly down lots of yogurt and curries, which seem healthier, until you eat them as much as I do.
Describe your perfect meal. Coming inside to a warm restaurant from the cold and seeing a big group of friends waiting already. Everyone sits around a big table, ordering beer and big savory plates of food. There's lots of sharing, more beer, then pie. What's that, the rest of the table is buying my food because I'm such a great guy? You shouldn't have.
What food won't you eat? Raw vegetables. They're fine enough, I guess, but it's so much harder to choke them down when you know how much yummier they are when cooked.
Favorite food person? Alton Brown. He is the Alice Cooper to my Wayne and Garth. His combination of technique, zaniness, humor, and belief that there is a right way of doing things that people deserve to know about really speaks to me. Plus puns. I love puns. If I'm hoping to cook something, the first thing I do is look to see if he has a recipe for it. I even have his autograph (eeee!).
When did you first realize you were a serious eater? I have eaten seriously for my whole life, as shown in pictures of me that resemble a bowling ball from my youth. But I started really enjoying the process and technique of food once I came to college. Somewhere between watching Good Eats reruns and going with friends to find the best Thai curry around, I fell in love with food as a science, an accomplishment, and as something to be appreciated.
What do your family and friends think of your food obsessions? They're all about it. I especially enjoy talking with my dad about his occasional food ventures. He doesn't cook super often, but when he does he's very meticulous about it and proud of what he produces. My friends are for it mostly so they can convince me to feed them.
Favorite food sites or blogs? Truthfully, Serious Eats. I became an intern here after really looking around on the website and saw that there was an opportunity. I especially enjoy the Food Lab, and one day will usurp Mr. J. Kenji Lopez's spot producing it (don't tell him, it's a surprise). I love news, so NPR's The Salt is another big one for me. Same reason I follow Alton Brown's blog.
Everyone has a go-to person they call for restaurant recommendations. Who's yours? Really, I like to think of myself as said person in my group of friends. I love spending an hour on Yelp preparing for a dinner days (or weeks) ahead of time. The other person I would likely trust would be my roommate, who is entirely too classy of a person.
What is your favorite meal of the day and where do you get it? Brunch, either in my or a friend's kitchen or at M. Henrietta's close to my apartment. Or, I'll do brunch at a small Korean restaurant a few blocks away. Noon Hour Grill + bulgogi bi bim bop = love.
Do you ever cook? What's the best dish you make? I love to cook, though I don't do it as often as I probably should. My favorite dish to whip out for people is curry, because after you get everything chopped, it's really just throwing everything in a pan and let it sit until it finishes cooking. Delicious, nutritious, and impressive without much actual work.

DoTERRA is a popular essential oils network marketing company with an MLM opportunity for affiliates.
Essential oils? Yeah, they're kinda hot right now.
Thanks to meet-ups, home parties, 3-way-calls, and good ole' fashioned word-of-mouth marketing, essential oils are being lit and inhaled in households worldwide. Business is booming.
Product-wise, they're great. 100%. But that doesn't mean you should be a distributor.
So have I been involved?
This video explains:
All good? Let's continue…
Company has been doing something right.
Psychological and therapeutical benefits?
Sure, I get it. Product seems to work for some. When a company is hitting hyper-growth and business is generally derived through word-of-mouth marketing, it says a lot about the product.
They claim to be one of the hottest in the direct selling space, and it's hard to argue.
Really, its just them and Young Living.
Who is better?
The short story: Young Living has been around longer and does more revenue, but doTERRA seems to be trendier.
They're both great companies, and they're clearly 1 and 2 in the essential oils space.
This Google Trends data tells the story:
Hard to knock them, popularity-wise.
But what about the products? The opportunity, etc, etc…?
Here is my full rundown. Enjoy.
doTERRA sells wellness products made with essential oils.
The products, which range from single oils to toothpaste to supplements, are sold based on a philosophy of natural living that speaks very loudly to millions of people in today's world.
With an already strong presence in North America, Europe, Oceania, Latin America and Asia, this company continues to expand due to the attractiveness of its product line and to the wide variety of resources available to its independent product consultants which help get the word out about the role of essential oils in a healthy lifestyle.
The founders are the executives and come from two worlds: healthcare and business.
They formed doTERRA in 2008 and formed the company with the vision of offering the world an alternative path to health and wellness through the powers of essential oils. With hospitals and health leaders on board, they could really advance the cause of wellness through essential oils.
That is their vision, at least.
Bringing therapeutic-grade essential oils to the world, a world which, by the way, knows very little about essential oils, drives every product, decision, and direction this company takes. The result is a seamless package and a strong message …from vision to product to recruiting, their original philosophy still holds true, and this is in part what makes doTERRA so successful.
If you don't already know about therapeutic-grade essential oils, get to know them.
These harmless bottles of joy seem to cure everything. In the MLM space, it's really just these guys and Young Living.
Both companies are doing well.
The introduction of the doTERRA line of products is perfectly timed with an international market that's hungry for natural wellness products, and these are high quality, safe, and pure- the best available.
Essential oils are natural compounds found in various parts of plants, which give plants not only their fragrance but also their immunity to disease…which is the root of their wellness capabilities for humans.
- the scientific community is conducting more and more research every year, which supports natural wellness products like those made by doTERRA
- with more clinical research to back up what ancient cultures have known for centuries, the general public is more and more receptive to alternative paths to health
- all it takes is a dedicated independent consultant to educate…there are literally thousands of uses for essential oils in daily life
- support for consultants is amazing….video presentations on everything from how to sell to how to manage the robust admin panel are available for free online
- conferences for consultants are incredibly well run- this is a very professional organization
- website offers lots of ideas and opportunities for holding live events in local local areas…seminars, talks, meetings and workshops
- products lend themselves really well to all sorts of daily living applications, and from there the motivated consultant can hold a workshop on anything from making your own air freshener and other household products to staying healthy during flu season…just check out doTERRA's calendar of events
- worldwide, untapped market
- product has zero socioeconomic boundaries
- 'fast start bonus' means consultants earn 20% on purchases and sales made by their new referrals in the first 60 days
- loyalty Rewards: earn free product
- 'power of 4' team bonus (paid monthly)…generous bonuses of $50, $250 and $1,500 each month for achieving enrollment and sales levels
- $35 registration fee
- Young Living has 12 more years in the game
- Young Living has more product variety
- their prez used to work for the competition, ensuing lawsuit
- do not have their own farms
- do not have their own exclusive oils
- do not distill their own oil (re-bottler?)
Compensation Plan
The executive team knows what they're doing.
Taking a cue from global blockbuster Pandora Jewelry, the product development and training is so extensive that independent product consultants can't help but learn the "culture" of doTERRA, and by absorbing the philosophy of wellness through essential oils, they can more effectively spread the word.
They develop brand ambassadors, not just salespeople.
Unlike any other direct selling enterprise, save for perhaps Mary Kay or Avon (although comparing to Mary Kay and Avon is apples to oranges since they began as offline companies), the resources available for making this product sell are incredible.
If you compare 'em to other online marketing ventures , it's light years ahead of the rest (hint: SpeedFeeder and Cabi).
But the real opportunity comes from the fact that so few people know about essential oils and the wonders they can perform in daily wellness.
The doTERRA business is simple:
Pay a $35 registration fee…
…use your wholesale price discount (25%) to purchase products…
…earn free product with the 'loyalty rewards program…
…refer your customers to your free website shopping portal and get more bonuses…
…and finally, sponsor new consultants and receive bonuses on their sales.
That's really it.
It's easy to imagine doTERRA becoming a major worldwide brand recognizable in every household. The potential is huge, given that most people don't know about essential oils yet and that they are an important aspect of healthy living.
So, with endless room for expansion, a wonderful line of products that appeal to a vast swathe of the population and knows no economic barriers, plus an incredible support system for training and selling, doTERRA is set to do some serrrrriooooous things.
doTERRA is insanely tempting. No question, they're hot, and they know it.
But hear me out for a sec…
Product-wise, they're great. 100%. But that doesn't mean you should be a distributor.
Whether you wanna keep investigating doTERRA or not, I spent hours researching and writing this review.
For what it's worth, I did get this feedback from one of our students in our private Facebook group who happened to be on this exact page before joining:
Just saying. Watch the video. And thank me later…this one's on me. (wink)
Remember, to get growth, you'll shamelessly ask family and friends to join up. Or spam your Facebook and Instagram feeds with doTERRA offers.
Do you want that for a home based business?
There is a better way.
You can build real business without the home parties, Facebook spamming, 3-way-calls or wandering around Wal-Mart prospecting well-dressed stay-at-home moms.
So, is it for the money? Here's your doctor-recommended treatment for your product-peddling. See it here.
On me. Wink.

Costumed rockers Kiss, Seattle grunge pioneers Nirvana, pop and rock princess Linda Ronstadt, progressive rock performer Peter Gabriel, Philly blue-eyed soul duo Hall and Oates, and English folk-pop singer-songwriter Cat Stevens will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame next year. Artists qualify for induction 25 years after the release of their first record.
The E Street Band will receive the Award for Musical Excellence. Also entering the Hall as non-performers will be The Beatles Manager Brian Epstein and The Rolling Stones '60s Manager Andrew Loog Oldham, receiving the Ahmet Ertegun Award.
The induction ceremony will take place on April 20 at the 19,000-seat Barclays Center in Brooklyn. The public will be able to attend the event. HBO will air the ceremony and traditional all-star concert in May.
Not making it were this year's nominees that included Deep Purple, Yes, and The Zombies. Left entirely out of the process once again were Jethro Tull, Paul Revere and The Raiders and Emerson, Lake and Palmer. But it's hard for these groups to get inducted when they've never ever even been nominated.
The Beatles, Kristofferson, Isleys and Kraftwerk to receive Lifetime Grammys
The Beatles, Kris Kristofferson, The Isley Brothers and German electronic band Kraftwerk will receive Lifetime Achievement Grammy Awards at an event the night before the nationally televised awards next month, the organization announced.
In addition, Italian film and TV composer Ennio Morricone, rock photographer Jim Marshall and Rick Hall, owner of Muscle Shoals, Alabama's FAME Recording Studio, will each be presented with the Grammy's Trustees Award.
The actual Grammy Awards will be televised live on CBS on Jan. 26.
Grammy Hall of Fame adds 27 albums and singles
The Grammy Hall of Fame, which preserves the greatest recordings in music history, added 27 singles and albums to its roster.
Among the singles added are Creedence Clearwater's "Fortunate Son" (1969), Hoagy Carmichael's "Georgia (On My Mind)" (1930), James Brown's "Get Up — I Feel Like a Sex Machine" (1970), The Rolling Stones' "Honky Tonk Woman" (1969), Dolly Parton's "Jolene" (1973), War's "Low Rider" (1975) and B.J. Thomas' "Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head" (1969).
Among the new Hall of Fame albums are "Woodstock: Music From the Original Soundtrack and More" (1970), Neil Young's "After the Gold Rush" (1970), George Harrison's "All Things Must Pass" (1970), Chicago's "Chicago Transit Authority" (1969), Julie Andrews, Dick Van Dyke and various artist's "Mary Poppins (Original Cast Album)" (1964) and U2's "The Joshua Tree" (1987).
Donny Osmond relates to Justin Bieber
Donny Osmond, a gigantic teen idol in the '70s, says he can relate to the rebellious streak in 19-year-old contemporary teen idol, Justin Bieber.
"I'm just a normal guy, and Donny & Marie left me with such a wacky image," the 56-year-old told Closer Weekly. "Since 'Puppy Love' and 'Go Away Little Girl' were such big records (when I was a young teen), I went through a period when I hated it."
He says Beiber "is feeling the pains of this right now."
"Everyone thinks he's still the kid who sang 'Baby' (that he recorded as a 15-year-old), but he's an adult and he's rebelling to show people he's an adult," Osmond said.
Osmond's advice to the young star is to just take it easy and go with the flow.
"Just let it happen. You can't change history. When you hit it so big at such a young age, time freezes in people's minds. You just have to live with the consequences until enough time goes by — 20 or 30 years, in my case. You get to a time where you end up embracing it," he said.
Defending himself and the behavior for which he's received much criticism in the media, Bieber told Ryan Seacrest on his radio show: "I'm still finding myself and when I have the media attacking me every day, it's no (different) than bullying that happens in school. Of course, I make mistakes growing up, and I'm not perfect. People forget I'm a human being and I have to make mistakes and grow stronger."
Rolling Stones tour Down Under announced
The Rolling Stones, fronted by 70-year-old Sir Mick Jagger, announced their seven-date tour of Australia and New Zealand. The band is calling the jaunt, "The 14 on Fire Tour" for the year, 2014. The tour kicks off March 19 in Western Australia at the 15,500-seat Perth Arena. The next date, on March 22 at the 54,500-capacity Adelaide Oval stadium, was the only previously-announced gig and that concert was an immediate sell-out. The tour wraps on April 5 at the 47,000-seat Mt. Smart Stadium in Auckland, New Zealand. The Stones last played Down Under in 2006 during their "A Bigger Bang" world tour.
