Democratic leaders, there's an elephant in the room By Bakari Sellers
Democratic leaders, there's an elephant in the room
Bakari Sellers is a former Democratic member of the South Carolina House of Representatives and a CNN commentator. The views expressed in this commentary are his own.
(CNN) Life in Washington comes at you fast. One minute you're a 10-term incumbent and chairman of the House Democratic Caucus. The next minute you're endorsing a 28-year-old political newcomer and former bartender who just snatched away your aspirations for party leadership.
This was the unfortunate situation that Rep. Joseph Crowley, D-New York, found himself in after a primary loss last week to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
Crowley is highly respected in the party, and was odds-on favorite to serve as the next minority leader or House speaker. Turns out Democratic primary voters don't care about inside baseball in Washington. They want representation that looks like them. They want younger leadership that understands their issues, such as the crushing burden of student debt that keeps so many from the American dream.
And most important, voters want a party with a backbone and clear message.
Ocasio-Cortez was able to paint Crowley as out of step, ideologically, and also demographically out of touch with the average voter in her district. Crowley's failure to debate her made clear his disconnect.
Keep in mind, many Democratic primary voters consider President Donald Trump to be only marginally worse than the Democratic establishment they believe takes them for granted. Ocasio-Cortez understood this, and she capitalized on it.
Rye: Pelosi reaction to NY primary winner 'completely tone deaf'06:20
Ocasio-Cortez is a Democratic socialist, but her victory does not signal a move among Democrats toward that ideology. It does, however, send a clear message that there is a generational, demographic and tonal shift underway among the primary electorate. And if congressional Democrats want to remain relevant, they need to reckon with this change: They need a succession plan.
Think about it. Every successful organization has a succession plan that identifies emerging risks and cultivates new leadership that can evolve with an ever-changing landscape. Democrats have failed to produce such a plan.
Instead of a game plan for accommodating the party's emerging voices in Washington, Democratic leadership this past week found time to chastise Rep. Maxine Waters, who has become the voice of Democratic resistance. This was incredibly tone deaf.
At a time when Democrats are marching for our lives and fighting family separations at the border, our party leadership appears to be more concerned about chiding young voters on their table manners.
Without a succession plan, Democrats will likely see more contested primaries pitting young versus old candidates, and people of color versus white candidates. There will also be more intraparty squabbles between older establishment members and younger progressives who've had enough with politics as usual.
So what does an effective succession plan look like?
To begin, an acknowledgment would help. The face of the party should represent its future. And that future — confirmed again this past Tuesday — is younger, blacker, browner and much more progressive.
We must also revisit how we fill prominent roles in House leadership. That means elevating people like California Rep. Nanette Barragan, Illinois Rep. Cheri Bustos, and New York Rep. Hakeem Jeffries into household names in the party. It also means transforming Massachusetts Rep. Joe Kennedy, New York Rep. Grace Meng, and Louisiana Rep. Cedric Richmond into consistent fixtures on cable news and Sunday talk shows.
A succession plan also means making progressive stalwart Rep. Barbara Lee of California the next Democratic Caucus chairwoman.
A succession plan would restore credibility by allowing voters to see themselves in the party that is asking for their votes every November. Mayors Randall Woodfin and Chokwe Lumumba have been able to achieve this in Birmingham, Alabama, and Jackson, Mississippi, as have Stacey Abrams in Georgia and Justin Fairfax in Virginia. But outside of Ocasio-Cortez, this rarely occurs in Washington.
Crowley dedicates song to winner Ocasio-Cortez 01:10
Now let me be clear, I am not calling for progressives to unseat incumbents in every congressional district. If it weren't for the current leadership team of Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer and James Clyburn, there would be no Affordable Care Act, stimulus package, or Wall Street reform.
But fair or unfair, those legislative achievements are distant memories for the young, progressive voters that Democrats will need to flip Congress in November.
It is time to face reality. It might be uncomfortable, but it is necessary. We must plan for our future. And as Ocasio-Cortez proved last Tuesday, the future is now.


Vishwa (Bellamkonda Srinivas) is born to a rich and righteous landlord in a village. The entire family is killed by the family of Muniappa (Jagapathi Babu and co). Vishwa escapes miraculously with the help of a calf. He is later adopted by an NRI businessman (Jayaprakash) from New York. Muniappa makes sure that there is no witness to the murder he committed. Rest of the story is all about how all elements come together to serve karma to Muniappa through Vishwa.
Actors: Bellamkonda Srinivas is growing as an actor and star from film to film. He is excellent in action sequences and danced energetically. However, he need to improve his diction and dialogue delivery. His diction lacks variation. Pooja Hegde fulfills her part as a glamorous heroine. Sarath Kumar excels in a brief role. Jaya Prakash is becoming monotonous for such father roles. Jagapathi Babu is good as usual. This film has three more villains in the form of Ashutosh Rana, Ravi Kishan and Madhu Guruswamy. Vennela Kishore is okay. Rao Ramesh has a brief yet vital role. Writer Ananth Sriram performed well as Valmiki, but looks awkward on screen.
Story - screenplay - direction: The basic concept of karma catching up is very good. Director Sriwass has written the story in such a way that it caters to the masses well. The take off is very good. The story has all ingredients of a blockbuster film. Karma concept is good. The hero doesn't know who the villains are. Villains think that they have killed hero. The character of Ananth Sriram as Valmiki who designs a video game which reflects the reality is also a fascinating factor. Despite having such support from script, director Sriwass didn't fully utilise it to make an universal film. Except for the concept, the narration in the film is ordinary. Director Sriwass missed out on one aspect as a writer. Hero comes from a rich family and escapes from death in childhood, but is brought up by another rich family from New York. It would have been nice, if he were brought up by a poor couple (like Sivudu character in Baahubali). The director has symbolically used one element each to kill each of four villains, but left out the element of space as it's not possible to kill somebody with space.
Other departments: Music scored by Harshavardhan Rameshwar is good and background music is also good in action episodes. Cinematography by Arthur A Wilson is rich. Dungu Dungu song that comes prior to interval is very creative (choreography and art direction point of view). Art direction by AS Prakash is very good. Dialogues written by Sai Madhav Burra are excellent, but there are too many repetitive dialogues (like Ye Dikku Leni Vaadiki Devude Dikku. I first observed this dialogue in Sri Anjaneyam film that is told only once and very effectively). Action sequences choreographed by Peter Heins are good. Production scale and quality of the film is excellent.
Analysis: Saakshyam is a large canvas film with a different concept and an innovative use of Karma and nature's elements. The movie starts off really well with high energy killing sequence and hero riding on calf. However, hero's NRI backdrop and love track are not interesting enough. Valkmiki character offers variety and killing sequences are executed well. The director missed a great chance to make an universally likable blockbuster, but the final product still has enough elements to work well with the masses.

How to Fly (in Ten Thousand Easy Lessons)
In her second poetry collection, Barbara Kingsolver offers reflections on the practical, the spiritual, and the wild. She begins with "how to" poems addressing everyday matters such as being hopeful, married, divorced; shearing a sheep; praying to unreliable gods; doing nothing at all; and of course, flying. Next come rafts of poems about making peace (or not) with the complicated bonds of friendship and family, and making peace (or not) with death, in the many ways it finds us.

By: Sue Monk Kidd
Narrated by: Jenna Lamia, Adepero Oduye, Sue Monk Kidd
From the celebrated author of The Secret Life of Bees, a magnificent novel about two unforgettable American women. Writing at the height of her narrative and imaginative gifts, Sue Monk Kidd presents a masterpiece of hope, daring, the quest for freedom, and the desire to have a voice in the world - and it is now the newest Oprah's Book Club 2.0 selection. Hetty "Handful" Grimke, an urban slave in early nineteenth century Charleston, yearns for life beyond the suffocating walls that enclose her within the wealthy Grimke household. The Grimke's daughter, Sarah, has known from an early age she is meant to do something large in the world, but she is hemmed in by the limits imposed on women.
Historical Fiction - beautifully quilted!
Barbara Kingsolver has written these five short stories with the same wit and sensitivity that characterize her highly praised and beloved novels Animal Dreams and The Bean Trees. Spreading her characters over a variety of colorful landscapes, she tells stories of hope, momentary joy, and powerful endurance. In every setting, her distinctive voice, at times comic, but often heartrending, rings true as she explores the twin themes of family ties and the life choices one must ultimately make alone.

What listeners say about Homeland and Other Stories
Another great book by Kingsolver!
Barbara Kingsolver narrates this book herself and it was very enjoyable to listen to her. The stories are only about 45 minutes in length so great short listens for busy people who don't have the time to get into a long novel.
Valerie Shultz
abridged version
The stories in Homeland are absolutely wonderful. I had read this book many years ago and purchased the audible because I wanted to hear the author read the stories in her own voice. I was disappointed to find that some of the stories were missing from this version. I was so looking forward to hearing one I believe is called "Bereaved Apartments." it is not there. Sadly.
Natalain Schwartz
Homeland stories that run deep
Barbara kingsolver words resonate deeply and her stories paint a beautiful image .
A simple story that creates a depth of emotion.
lorrchad
Another book I will listen to again and again.
Mrs. Kingsolver never fails to touch my heart and soul with her writing and reading of same. Her analogies are simple, insightful, and complex. The imagery never fails.
This book should be taught in schools to provide the human side of our history.
Nora Whitney
This was a lovely story of days gone by. A time in history , that I can remember.
A ten all the way around in many levels very moving. She knows how children think!
Great short stories
Loved the stories and the reading. Only complaint is that it felt like some of them ended abruptly, and the next one started too quickly. I was involved with the characters in one story, and then suddenly their story was over and the next one had begun. A couple of times I found myself pausing the recording to digest a story before continuing to the next one. But over all, it was excellent. I am a Barbara Kingsolver fan, but had never heard of this book, great surprise.
I love the way Barbara Kingsolver weites
the layers of little details create such amazing story tapestries. She is such a treasure.
Carole V
Great collection of stories.
This collection carried me to many diverse worlds and times, which is exactly what I have come to expect from Ms Kingsolver. Her voice brought the stories to life in a way far different than the printed page can. She makes you think hard about things and makes you want to be a better person.

An analysis of the first large mpox outbreak in North America found that early, sustained engagement and rapid offering of preexposure vaccination to affected communities successfully controlled the spread of the outbreak. The analysis is published in Annals of Internal Medicine.
Mpox is historically endemic to west and central Africa but spread significantly in other countries in 2022, primarily among the men who have sex with men (MSM) community. During this time, Montreal, Quebec, liquid arimidex dose on cycle Canada, emerged as the site of the first large outbreak in North America.
Researchers from McGill University Health Centre, Montreal, Canada characterized and analyzed the epidemiologic, clinical, and demographic data from 402 persons with probable or confirmed cases of mpox in Montreal and the public health response by Montreal Public Health.
The authors report that Montreal experienced its initial mpox outbreak in May 2022, followed by two peaks in early June and early July. This was followed by a decline in cases. Nearly all reported cases were among MSM who likely acquired the infection through sexual contact. Montreal public health authorities acted quickly to lead interventions to control the transmission.
These interventions included early and sustained engagement with the affected communities; alerting clinicians to promote rapid case detection and reporting; performing case investigation and contact tracing; and contributing to the development of interim guidance on diagnostic testing, case and contact management, and recommended infection and control prevention measures.
According to the authors, the prompt recognition of the importance of preexposure vaccination in at-risk populations and the extended offer of MVA-BN to tourists coming to Montreal led to many being vaccinated. They add that increasing and supporting equitable access to vaccines for at-risk populations worldwide should be a global priority for the prevention and control of mpox.

2021 Graham Trucking
Owner: Nelson Holmberg (Vancouver, Washington)
Driver(s): Nelson Holmberg
Model Builder: Henry Marvin (built for Terry Harmer as U-3 Miss Chrysler Jeep), changed to Graham Trucking by Nelson Holmberg
Construction: Carbon fiber
Motor: SSS 4092 850kV
Radio: Spektrum
Electronic Speed Controller: Seaking HV130A
Propeller: That's classified. We could tell you, but then we'd have to kill you.
Paint Colors: Red with black and gray vinyl
Graphics: Vinyl by Jesse Robertson at Hovercraft Media (Seattle, WA)
Notes about the Model: Built from Henry Marvin's immaculate molds, the 2021 Graham Trucking model started its life as Terry's model of the 2009 U-3 Miss Chrysler Jeep, which was one of the lightest and fastest modern boats in 1/7 scale. Nelson bought the boat from Terry just before the third race of the 2021 season and ran it for the first time at an open water session in Banks, Ore. Nearly halfway through the 2021 season, Nelson stripped the Chrysler Jeep decals and converted the boat to the 2021 Graham Trucking as it appeared during the June Spring Training in Tri-Cities - all red with a black horizontal stabilizer and no decals. It ran that way - with a makeshift cowling that Nelson built - under variance for the rest of the season.
Notes about the Real Boat: Team owner Rob Graham hired is first new driver in June 2021 when he brought in Andrew Tate to replace J. Michael Kelly in the T-6 cockpit. Tater, as expected, was a front-runner in H1 Unlimited, winning all of his preliminary heats and finishing second in the final at the Gold Cup, despite having his wings come apart on lap three. The Graham Trucking hull is still one of the best fliers over the water and among the fastest boats in the fleet.
Notes about 2021: The 2021 season was a good one for this hull. In just four races, the hull scored enough points to finish fourth in season high points, won the Ted Jones Memorial and finished second place in the Gold Cup final with David Newton at the helm. It also had a third place finish in the final of the Stan Sayres Memorial with Gerry Bordon driving. It, too, was credited with a race win at the Governor's Cup. The outlook for the 2022 season, with the boat's new livery, an actual scale cowling and a new "turbine", is very strong.

The SCS Climbing System is predominantly used for single-sided applications, i.e. with non-tied wall formwork. The loads resulting from the fresh concrete pressure are thereby transferred via the brackets into the previous concreting section by climbing anchors. Typical areas of applications for the SCS Climbing System are dams, locks, cooling towers, bunkers and strongroom vaults, pier heads and tunnels. With very few additional components, the brackets are also suitable for forming with anchored wall formwork.
With the SCS system, two bracket units together with one PERI wall formwork section form a cranemovable platform unit.
Optionally, VARIO GT 24 Girder Wall Formwork as well as TRIO or MAXIMO Panel Formwork can be used.
The SCS Climbing System has been optimized for a concreting height of 3.00 m (vertical applications) or 2.50 m (forward-inclined applications).
With only a minimum of additional components, the use with anchored formwork is also possible for walls up to 6.00 m high.
The Bracket SCS 190 has a width of 1.90 m and requires only a minimum of space as well as being a more cost-effective alternative. The formwork is simply tilted when striking.
The SCS 250 has a width of 2.50 m and is equipped with a formwork carriage. With this, the wall formwork can be retracted up to 79 cm (valid for MAXIMO and TRIO) or up to 63 cm (valid for VARIO GT 24) without requiring a crane. This provides sufficient space for the reinforcement work, assembly of the scaffold anchoring as well shuttering and striking of box outs.
For the first casting segment, a starter brace frame is used while diagonal anchoring transfers the loads into the bottom slab.
The SCS Starter Brace Frame is designed in such a way that the strongback, spindle and formwork can also be used in the next casting segments with the climbing bracket.
With only a minimum of additional components, the SCS Climbing Bracket can also be used for anchored wall formwork up to 6.00 m high. This ensures increased material utilization of the system components and thus enhanced cost-effectiveness of the investment.

Dialogue Nuts & Bolts
by Jodie Renner, editor & author, @JodieRennerEd
In another article, Tips for Writing Effective Dialogue, I discuss various techniques for writing dialogue that will come alive on the page. Drop over there for some advice on making your dialogue less stilted and more natural-sounding. Also, check out another post of mine, Some Dialogue Don'ts.
This article just provides a reference for the grammatically correct way to write dialogue, as well as some style tips for dialogue tags. Using correct punctuation and form for dialogue will keep your readers from becoming distracted, confused or annoyed, and maintain their focus on your story. So if you want your manuscript to look professional and your story to read smoothly, it's best to follow these technical guidelines.
First of all, start a new paragraph every time the speaker changes. On the other hand, don't start a new paragraph if it's still the same speaker, unless you're doing it for a good reason, like a pause or emphasis.
Punctuation for Dialogue:
1. Put quotation marks around all spoken words.
Although in Britain and Australia, it's more common to use single quotes around dialogue, in the United States and Canada, the standard is double quotes around dialogue, with single quotes around any quoted words or phrases within the quoted dialogue.
2. In North America, the punctuation always goes inside the end quote, not outside it:
"What's wrong with you?" he asked.
"Nothing," she replied.
3. If the person is asking a question, the question mark goes inside the quotation mark, and a period goes at the end of the whole sentence. The same goes for exclamations.
"Where were you?" she asked.
"Help!" he shouted.
Note that in the above examples, even though your word processor wants you to put a capital letter for "she" or "he", these need to be lowercase, as they don't start a new sentence.
4. If the person speaking is making a statement (or a suggestion or a command), replace the period (which would follow if it weren't in quotation marks) with a comma. Then put your period at the end of the sentence.
"Let's go home," he said.
5. If there's no attribute (he said, she said), put a period inside the closing quotation mark.
"Turn off the TV."
6. If you start with the dialogue tag, put a comma after it, before your opening quotation mark and the dialogue:
He said, "But my game is on."
7. If you want to put your dialogue tag in the middle of a sentence, put a comma inside the first set of closing quotation marks, and also after the dialogue tag:
"I can never understand," she said, "what you see in him." (Note no capital for the second part.)
8. If one person is speaking and the dialogue goes on for more than one paragraph (definitely not a great idea to have one person speaking at great length), you leave out the closing quotation marks at the end of the first paragraph, but put opening quotation marks at the beginning of the next one. Use closing quotation marks only when that person is finished speaking.
"…no matter what you do.
"And another thing, don't …."
1. Avoid overusing dialogue tags. Instead of constantly using he said or she said (or the name and said), replace them often with action beats, which will also help bring the scene alive:
He closed the door very quietly. Too late.
She stood there, hands on hips. "Where've you been?"
"Don't start." He took off his coat and hung it up.
The action immediately before or after the words tells us who's talking.
Or, if it can be done without confusing the readers, just leave out the dialogue tag or action beat. Context often makes it obvious who's speaking.
2. The best dialogue tags are the simple he said and she said (or asked), or with the name: John said, Carol said. These simple dialogue tags don't draw attention to themselves or interrupt the story line, as they're almost invisible. Avoid fancy tags like queried, chortled, alleged, proclaimed, conjectured, affirmed, etc., which can be distracting. But I do suggest using verbs that accurately and quickly describe how the words are delivered, like whispered, shouted, yelled, screamed, or stammered.
3. You can't use words like laughed or grinned or smiled or grimaced or scowled as dialogue tags.
These are both incorrect:
"You look great," he grinned.
"Why, thank you," she smiled.
Why don't they work? Because smiling is not talking; you can't "smile" or "grin" words.
"You look great," he said, grinning.
"Why, thank you." She smiled at the compliment. (Note period and capital "She")
Or "Why, thank you," she said, then smiled at him.
4. Use adverbs very sparingly.
"I'm sorry," she said apologetically.
"Come here," he said imperiously.
"I'm in charge," she said haughtily.
Instead, make sure the words they're saying and any actions convey the feelings you wish to express.
5. Off-topic, but do not put quotation marks around thoughts. That's a topic for another post.
TWO CURRENT STYLE TRENDS (Jodie's observations):
1. Contemporary North American fiction seems to avoid the reversed form, "said Carol", in favor of "Carol said." The reversed form seems to be more British and also considered kind of archaic, which makes it great for historical fiction.
2. Most contemporary North American fiction writers, with the notable exception of Lee Child, seem to put most dialogue tags after the words spoken:
"Let's go," Tony said.
Rather than before:
Tony said, "Let's go."
These last two points are of course just my observations of common usage, not rules. But aspiring or debut authors would do well to stick with what seems to be in favor, to give a contemporary feel to your novel. Of course, if you're writing historical fiction, go for the older "said Elizabeth" form.

Are you looking for some ideas on how to get rid of a hickey immediately? In this adventurous journey of life, an adult finds herself or himself in scenarios that are rather embarassing once. Spotting a hickey attracts giggles and stares which causes the affected person embarassement making him or her uncomfrotable and not able to go about daily routines with ease. If you have a hickey and you would like it off as fast as you acquired it, read on to know some tricks to get rid of it.
Ice it until swelling goes down. This is one of the most effective cold approaches on how to get rid of a hickey that is commonly used by many people. Remember when you were a child and your mom would put ice on your injuries to keep the swelling down? This is the same principle that applies when attempting to remove a hickey. Apply an ice pack to a fresh passion mark to allow blood circulation in the affected area. You may feel a burning sensation with this so hold the ice against the spot just for as long as you can tolerate then put the ice pack again on the hickey after a few minutes.
Lay cold spoon on it. Another cold-approach on how to get rid of a hickey, what this trick does is decrease the size and color of the love bite. Take a metal spoon, place it in the freezer and get it after 20 minutes. If it's already freezing cold, lay the spoon over the spot on your neck where the fresh hickey is. If the temperature of the spoon warms up, put it again in the freezer for a few minutes and repeat the same process until your hickey becomes less visible.
Twist a cap on it. You can use a chap stick, a lip balm or anthing that has the same cap then rub it on the area with a hickey. Position the cap against the affected skin area then twist it back and forth to promote better blood circulation. At first, this may hurt and make the sorrounding skin area turn red but when the blood starts to circulate again, your hickey will disappear fast.
Brush the hickey away. This is another commonly used method on how to get rid of a hickey fast which doesn't require you to prepare a lot of stuff. You can use a hairbrush. Just like the cap trick, this will also hurt rather than sooth but this will help promote blood circulation and lead to the fading away of your hickey. Keep brushing even if your neck feels irritated until you have rubbed the affected area through.
Apply the massage approach. Gently massage the hickey with your fingertips to break up the clots from under your skin and reduce the visibility of the love bite. Expect that this method of how to get rid of a hickey will sting a bit but as long as you aren't feeling a significant pain, just keep going. You can use toothbrush too but don't use too much pressure or your skin will get damaged.
Use the hot method. In contradiction to the cold method using a freezing spoon and an ice pack, you can also apply the hot method. Be mindful though that this entails timing. You should only apply heat in the affected area after 48 hours since the hickey was formed so that by then, the broken capillaries have already healed. What the heat does is improve the flow of blood in the affected area promoting re-absorption of the clot to the blood stream fading the discoloration away.
Scrape it with a coin. The idea of this trick on how to get rid of a hickey is to break down the clotting on the affected skin area and spread it to the surrounding tissues. Use a coin to scrape away the skin from the center of the love bite going outwards. Care should be taken when following this procedure because if you apply too much pressure when scraping, your skin might become irritated.
Applying make-up. You can hide the appearance of a hickey with the wise use of make-up that blends well with the injury. What's commonly used is a green lining that conceals the red soreness of a hickey. You can also use a yellow foundation on top of the lining to not make the hickey obvious.
Wear the right clothing. If the method you used on how to get rid of a hickey don't do you any good, look for turtle necks and long-sleeved blouses in your cabinet to hide it instead. Just make sure that the clothes you wear match with the weather when employing this tactic or it would be obvious that you're trying to hide something behind your clothes.
There's nothing wrong with getting a hickey but you surely don't want to go to the office or attend an event with it blared in full view of the public. Hopefully the methods on how to get rid of a hickey that are listed here would help you cover if not totally get rid of it. You don't have to sport a love bite on your neck and endure the embarassment as long as you know of the ways of getting rid of it.

Celtics' Bradley has found a home
By Jim FentonMore Content Now
Oct 4, 2014 at 9:54 PM Oct 4, 2014 at 9:54 PM
WALTHAM, Mass. – The NBA free-agent market opened for business on the morning of July 1, beginning a time of uncertainty for players and teams.
There was, however, one free agent who wasn't interested in exploring new options or dragging out the process.
Avery Bradley, after spending four seasons with the Celtics, knew all along he would not be leaving the team that drafted him in the first round in 2010.
"I love the organization,'' said the guard during the first week of training camp. "I love (coach) Brad Stevens. I love (president of basketball operations) Danny Ainge. I love my teammates.
"It was a no-brainer for me. I knew I was going to end up back here in Boston. It's my second home.''
Bradley was a restricted free agent, meaning the Celtics could match any offer he received, but the team made the decision easy for him by offering a surprising four-year, $32 million contract that was accepted just two days into free agency.
The Celtics are confident that Bradley will continue to make the kind of progress he has since being drafted out of Texas.
Injuries have been a problem for Bradley – he has never played more than 64 games – and he sat out 32 and 22 games the past two seasons, respectively.
But Bradley, one of the top defensive guards in the NBA, improved his offense last season, averaging a career-high 14.9 points (second on the team) with an improved outside shot. Bradley made 39.5 percent of his attempts from 3-point range.
While the added offense was a bonus, Bradley still knows what his main role is for the Celtics.
"I'm a defensive player first,'' said Bradley, whose team hosts the Philadelphia 76ers in a preseason game on Monday night. "I let everything else come. I know my team needs me to guard the best offensive player every single night and that's what I'm willing to do and that's my main focus really.
"I don't worry about the offense. All of that will come. I want to be on the (NBA's) first team all-defense, I made the second team two years ago. That's my No. 1 goal this year, but obviously I want to improve in every part of my game.''
Bradley, rookie Marcus Smart and Rajon Rondo will be asked to pester opposing guards, making it difficult for teams to get into their sets quickly this season.
The leader in that area figures to be Bradley, who has become a haunt against backcourt players since he began playing a prominent role in the 2011-12 season.
"Avery's a guy who can impact the game,'' said Stevens. "I had a long talk with Avery (the other day). A lot of people can score, a lot of people can handle it, a lot of people can make plays with the ball.
"Very few people can do those things and change the energy of a game with their intensity level. That's a hard thing to do day-to-day, practice-to-practice. You need him to do it 82 times, but at the end of the day, I think he's different because of that.''
Bradley will turn 24 next month, not long after his fifth season begins. He laughs about rookie James Young being only 19 years old, the same age Bradley was when his first season started.
"I heard Young was born in 1995. It's crazy,'' said Bradley, who was slowed by a sprained right ankle last season. "Time does fly. I remember I came in and Shaq (Shaquille O'Neal) and those guys were telling me time would fly and it really does. It's crazy.''
Bradley ranks behind only Rondo in service with the Celtics now and he's grown up in a hurry after playing just one year in Texas. Bradley is a key member of the Celtics who is under contract through the 2017-18 season.
"I feel I can improve every aspect of my game,'' said Bradley. "I feel like I've worked on my game a lot this summer. My ball handling, my shooting, everything. I hope I'm a better 3-point shooter this season. However I can help my team, that's what I'm going to do.''

JM#140 – Coltsfoot
Coltsfoot and Ivaylo reunite in the booth for this latest edition of the Jaeger mix. Coltsfoot shares a long history with Jaeger as one of the original Retro residents and Ivaylo's Te Dans compatriot. When Te Dans disbanded in 2016, Coltsfoot left Ivaylo to evolve the concept into the Jaeger mix, while he went on to pursue his career as a successful furniture designer.
Although he has cut down on his appearances, Coltsfoot still graces us with his presence in the booth on occasion and has already opened up for Âme and Culoe de Song at Jaegerin 2019. A versatile selector, Coltsfoot can easily go from opening up for the likes of Âme to playing a packed house at Blå for Sunkissed at peak time. He can play to lounging audience on a Saturday afternoon or take us deep into a Friday night through his House-heavy sets.
On his third appearance for the Jaeger mix series he offers yet another side to his extensive versatility at the decks. Going from autumn to summer in this mix Coltsfoot takes us on a journey through the trenches of House music in this toe-tapping House set from the Jaeger original.
Hello Nico and welcome back to the Jaeger mix, it's been a while. What have been some of your music highlights since the last time?
In the basement at Jaeger with Project Pablo and Cin Cin with Fort Romeau last summer were good and inspiring evenings. Not least Gerd Janson and Prins Thomas' intense and compact DJ set in November. With lots of secret edits and tracks who woke the old trainspotter in me.
There is a moment I have to tell about. It's not often you get a new favorite band, but that happened to me during by:Larm this year. The Danish band Motorique surprised me. I have never heard the same band twice during the by:larm weekend. I saw Motorique on Friday and Saturday. Very talented musicians and they have a fantastic soundscape that I have missed these days. The sound is between Autobahn landscape, smooth tropical drinks and lots of Krautrock references. Individually they have strange features and a cool style, but together they have a clear identity. It's a nice band to dance to during the concerts. Please, get Motorique back to Oslo. Ola! Do you hear me ;)
It seems that you are not playing as much anymore, compared to a few years ago. What's the reason behind that?
I have actually become an entrepreneur. In April 2018 I launched a new Norwegian furniture brand called Objekt together with two other companions. I am originally a product designer and long thought about why no Norwegian producers have launched their own brand. So I simply started up a design brand together with two good colleagues from the furniture industry.
That takes up much of my time, but I still search for new music and look for what will be next, preferably two heads in front. I have actually started playing more evenings again and I have not quite shelved the music just yet. I am still equally concerned with what's happening, nationally and internationally. I have had many gigs in recent months and I'm beginning to play often at Karusell in Strøget. I can tell you all that Karusell is a hidden treasure in Oslo. Karusell is a club I prefer during the day.
By the way! Last week we opened our new showroom at Skøyen. All of you are welcome to see our collections. A little sneak bit of advertising, check out Objekt on Instagram. http://instagram.com/objektstories/
Do you find now that you have distance between your appearances in the booth, that you are approaching your sets any differently?
I never plan a DJ set for an evening, only sort the songs and landscapes I will play that night. For a mix like the Jaeger Mix I only prepare and assemble before Ivaylo pushes rec.
We were talking a while back about your influences as a DJ, and you mentioned a particular experience with John "Jellybean" Benitez. Tell us a bit about how he influenced you as a DJ?
Mr. Benitez came in to my life April 2010 at the Sullivan Room in New Your. I had been a DJ for 10 years and I already had my influences and references. (Yes next year I celebrate 20 years anniversary as DJ.) But that night he blew my mind. The sound was so dark, tribal and deep. He presented a new sound through his work as an old master on the Urei mixer. In fact, that was the first night I heard songs from Black Coffee. He played Juju and Respect me. That inspired me. There is no Jellybean sound in my DJ set today, but he represents something that was new at that time. Therefore he is a milestone in my music life
How have your tastes evolved since then and what do you look for in music to make it your own in a set today?
The taste of electronic music has been in my life since I was 5 and my dad played Jean Michel Jarre, Kraftwerk, KLF and house music on the soundsystem. Some details in the soundscape have followed me the last 15 years but I am more versatile than people think.
When I was co-resident together with Daniel Gude on the Retro evenings I played the Paradise Garage sound with bit of House classics. The times change and I think it is important to adapt to the time without changing your style completely. I'm inspired by music from Frankfurt to the varying sound from Brooklyn, like music from Scissor and Thread.
Tell us a bit about this Jaeger mix.
Autumn meets summer in this mix. I hope this is a mix people will listen to when they work, walking at night or driving in their car on the highway. I have put together songs I like these days and a soundscape I will bring out to the people.
What were some of your personal musical highlights in this mix?
Superpitcher – In My Head (feat. Fantastic Twins) – Kompakt. This song gives you the feeling of getting into trance. Dream you away.
Jacques Bon – Fractals – Live At Robert Johnson – From my favorite label and I play it often these days.
The Jaeger Mix is the direct descendent from the Te Dans events that you and Ivaylo hosted a few years back. How do you think it's changed, or evolved from Te Dans?
I think Jaeger mix was a good direction to move further from Te Dans. To bring out and present a wide range of DJs from Oslo in an audio format and that's a fine measure. I think it is perfectly correct as a club to have a mixs how like this. All cred to Ivaylo who takes this job so seriously and professionally in curating good djs for this mix series. Te Dans was an easy Saturday spot on Jaeger. Ivaylo and I played soft and slow house music to the people who hung out in the bar on Saturday afternoons. We pitched down every track, sometimes so slow that we suddenly fell asleep. (laughs). I have lots of good memories from that time.
This is your third contribution to the series and the last two times you brought two very different selections. How is this one different again?
It's nice to vary a little on the different mixes. If not, all my mixes would have had the same sound and become boring. My first Jaeger mix, JM 005 was a really dark Autumn mix; maybe one of my best mixes ever.
Anything you'd like to add to sign us off?
Ha en god 17 mai!

Q: Show/Hide using toggle saving to cookie Can this be improved to have only one toogle function?
var show = $("#shows ul li");
show.addClass("active");

$(show).each(function(c){
    var cvalue = $.cookie('show' + c);
   if ( cvalue == 'closed' + c ) {
        $(this).css({display:"none"});
        $(this).removeClass('active').addClass('inactive');
   };
});

$("#shows li.active").toggle(function(){
    var num = show.index(this);
    var cookieName = 'show' + num;
    var cookieValue = 'closed' + num;
    $(this).slideUp(500);
    $(this).removeClass('active');
    $.cookie(cookieName, cookieValue, { path: '/', expires: 10 });
},function(){
    var num = $(this).index(this);
    var cookieName = 'show' + num;
    $(this).slideDown(500);
    $(this).addClass("active");
    $.cookie(cookieName, null, { path: '/', expires: 10 });
});

$("#shows li.inactive").toggle(function(){
    var num = show.index(this);
    var cookieName = 'show' + num;
    $(this).slideDown(500);
    $(this).addClass("active");
    $(this).removeClass('inactive');
    $.cookie(cookieName, null, { path: '/', expires: 10 });
},function(){
    var num = show.index(this);
    var cookieName = 'show' + num;
    var cookieValue = 'closed' + num;
    $(this).slideUp(500);
    $(this).removeClass('active');
    $.cookie(cookieName, cookieValue, { path: '/', expires: 10 });
});

A: You can do something like this...
$("#shows li").toggle(function(){

    var isactive = $(this).hasClass("active") ? true : false;

    var num = show.index(this);
    var cookieName = 'show' + num;
    var cookieValue = null;

    if(isactive){
        cookieValue = 'closed' + num;
        $(this).slideUp(500);
        $(this).removeClass('active');
    }else{
        $(this).slideDown(500);
        $(this).addClass("active");
        $(this).removeClass('inactive');
    }

    $.cookie(cookieName, cookieValue, { path: '/', expires: 10 });

},function(){
    var isactive = $(this).hasClass("active") ? true : false;

    var num = $(this).index(this);
    var cookieName = 'show' + num;
    var cookieValue = null;

    if(isactive){
        $(this).slideDown(500);
        $(this).addClass("active");
    }else{
        cookieValue = 'closed' + num;
        $(this).slideUp(500);
        $(this).removeClass('active');
    }
    $.cookie(cookieName, cookieValue, { path: '/', expires: 10 });
});

A: Without seeing your markup, you can definitely reduce those to a single, short .toggle. For example, using the toggleClass and slideToggle methods:
$("#shows li").toggle(function(){
    var num = show.index(this);
    $(this).slideToggle(500);
    $(this).toggleClass('active');
    var cookieName = 'show' + num;
    var cookieValue = ($(this).hasClass("active") ? 'show' : 'closed') + num;
    $.cookie(cookieName, cookieValue, { path: '/', expires: 10 });
}

Do you really need both .active and .inactive classes? I would suggest the elements simply toggle between the .active class (and nothing, which implies 'inactive').

A: Maybe this will makes things look good:
function func1() {
    var num = show.index(this);
    var cookieName = 'show' + num;
    var cookieValue = 'closed' + num;
    $(this).slideUp(500);
    $(this).removeClass('active');
    $.cookie(cookieName, cookieValue, { path: '/', expires: 10 });
}

function func2() {
    var num = $(this).index(this);
    var cookieName = 'show' + num;
    $(this).slideDown(500);
    $(this).addClass("active");
    $.cookie(cookieName, null, { path: '/', expires: 10 });
}

$("#shows li.active").toggle(func1,func2);
$("#shows li.inactive").toggle(func2,func1);

US and Canadian Hog Inventory Down Four Per Cent

US - This publication is a result of a joint effort by Statistics Canada and NASS to release the total hogs, breeding, market hogs, sows farrowed, and pig crop for both countries within one publication.
This information was requested by the US hog industry to provide producers additional information about potential hog supplies. US inventory numbers were previously released on 30 December 2008.
US and Canadian inventory of all hogs and pigs for December 2008 was 79.1 million head. This was down four per cent from December 2007 but up two per cent from December 2006. The breeding inventory, at 7.49 million head, was down three per cent from a year ago but virtually unchanged from last quarter. Market hog inventory, at 71.6 million head, was down four per cent from last year and down three per cent from last quarter. The pig crop, at 36.3 million head, was down four per cent from 2007 but up three per cent from 2006. Sows farrowed during this period totaled 3.79 million head, down five per cent from last year.
US inventory of all hogs and pigs on 1 December 2008 was 66.7 million head. This was down two per cent from both 1 December 2007 and 1 September 2008. The breeding inventory, at 6.08 million head, was down two per cent from last year but up slightly from the previous quarter. Market hog inventory, at 60.6 million head, was down two per cent from both last year and last quarter. The pig crop, at 28.4 million head, was down four per cent from 2007 but up 6 per cent from 2006. Sows farrowed during this period totaled 2.99 million head, down six per cent from last year.
Canadian inventory of all hogs and pigs on 1 January 2009 was 12.4 million head. This was down 10 per cent from 1 January 2008 and down 17 per cent from 1 January 2007. The breeding inventory, at 1.40 million head, was down seven per cent from last year and down one per cent from last quarter. Market hog inventory, at 11.0 million head, was down 11 per cent from last year and down four per cent from last quarter. The pig crop, at 7.86 million head, was down three per cent from 2008 and down four per cent from 2007. Sows farrowed during this period totaled 799,200 head, down four per cent from last year.


Segments are groups of contacts generated based on filter criteria and contact lists. Segments can filter contacts based on criteria like whether or not they receive a newspaper, whether or not they registered for a conference, or whether or not they visited a landing page.
Segments can be very general, like "Email Opened," or very specific, like "Arborists who live in Minnesota." Create segments that are appropriate for your company's needs.
In most cases, it is more efficient to create small, targeted segments that you can combine together to reach the entire audience. Creating large, complex segments that are only appropriate for a single campaign is more time-consuming, and prevents you from being able to reuse common segments in future campaigns. As always, your business needs should determine how you create your segments.
Use these Do-It-Yourself resources as an action plan to help implement a segmentation strategy. Or take the academy courses on segmentation to learn beginner to advanced segmentation skills.
It is relatively easy to create a segment by sales territory if every one of your territories corresponds to a single field value, such as a specific state, city, county, or zip code. For sales territories that are harder to define, such as territories that cover multiple states, or portions of different states, you can use multiple selection criteria to capture the whole area.
For example, suppose your filter needs to cover an entire city as well as a few zip codes outside the city. Your filter would then need to include both the city and the extra zip codes.
Specifically, consider the example of Kansas City. There are two cities called Kansas City: one is in Missouri, and the other is in Kansas. If you created your segment based only on city name, you would include contacts from both cities. To select only one, you would need to include the state. In the following figure, the sales territory includes Kansas City, KS, and a few postal codes just outside the city. The contacts meeting this criteria are placed in a segment called "Kansas City KS Sales Territory."
In a special case, you can choose to universally exclude some contacts from all segments. Your Customer Administrator must set up these "System-Wide Exclusions" for you. You can set up System-Wide Exclusions based on a wide variety of criteria, but System-Wide Exclusions are most frequently used to exclude all email addresses that belong to a competitor's domains, or a competitor's partner's domains.

WASHINGTON (CNS) — Catholic organizations expressed distress and unease with President Donald J. Trump's actions related to immigration while pledging to continue serving and supporting migrant people.
The reactions came within hours of Trump's signing of executive memorandums on national security Jan. 25 during a visit to the Department of Homeland Security. The memorandums authorized the construction of a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border and directed John F. Kelly, secretary of homeland security, to look at how federal funding streams can be cut for cities and states that illegally harbor those in the country without legal permission.
Agencies cited the words of Pope Francis in criticizing the president's actions and pledged to support and serve migrants in the United States.
"Pope Francis has urged people not to close the door on migrants and refugees," Dominican Sister Donna Markham, president and CEO of Catholic Charities USA, said in a statement. "In concert with the Holy Father, we believe we must move from attitudes of defensiveness and fear to acceptance, compassion and encounter.
Catholic Charities USA also will continue to work for comprehensive immigration reform, Sister Donna said.
"When Nuns on the Bus visited the U.S.-Mexico border in 2014, we walked along the wall and listened to the stories of communities that have been torn apart for decades. That is the reality experienced by border communities: The wall is there and it affects the daily life and commerce of the people.
"Federal appropriations for border security have grown to $3.8 billion in FY2015, from $263 million in FY1990, and fencing exists for hundreds of miles along our southern border," she said in a statement.

Answers and Explanations
If she had known about his financial situation, she would have helped him out. Use the past perfect (had + past participle) in the "if" clause of the third conditional to talk about unreal past situations.
I'll be looking after their cat while they are away on holiday. The phrasal verb "to look after" means "to take care of."
He made his children do their homework every afternoon. The verbs "make" and "let" combine with an object plus the base form (without "to") of the verb. Other verbs use the infinitive form of the verb (with "to").
The test was so difficult she had problems finishing it on time. Use "so" with an adjective and "such" with a noun phrase.
By the time she arrives, we will have finished our homework. With the time clause "by the time..." use the future perfect to describe something that will have happened up to that point in time.
She had finished lunch by the time we arrived. Use the past perfect (had + participle) to express an action finished before another action in the past.
The sun set at 9 last night. The verb "to set" is irregular.
When I stopped to speak to Mary, she was picking some flowers in her garden. When using the verb "to stop," use the infinitive form to express an action that you stopped in order to do. Use the gerund to express an action that you have stopped doing (and doesn't continue).
Despite studying hard, he failed the exam. Use the gerund or "having + past participle" following "despite." Use a verb clause when following "although."
That room is being used for a meeting today. "Is being used" is the present continuous form of the passive voice that is required by this sentence.
We would play tennis every day when we were young. "Would do something" and "used to do something" both express a habitual action in the past. "Used to do something" also expresses the idea that you do not do that action anymore.
If I were you, I would wait a while to begin investing. Use "were" in the second conditional if clause for all subjects.
He'll give you a call as soon as he arrives. In a future time clause use the present simple. The construction is the same as for the first conditional.
He really didn't want to come last night. Neither did I. Use "neither" followed by the opposite form of the helping verb to state negative agreement.
Do you think he knows what he wants? Be careful to change questions to standard sentence structure when asking an indirect question.
I think San Francisco is as exciting as New York. Use "as ... as" to show equality.
Why are your hands so dirty? Well, I have been working in the garden. Use the present perfect continuous to show what has caused a present result.
Did you remember to lock the door? The verb "stop" can change meaning when used with a gerund or infinitive.
Which model goes 250 mph? Subject questions take standard positive sentence structure but begin with "who," "whom" or "which."
That is the man whose grandfather founded Kentucky Root Beer. "Whose" is the possessive relative pronoun required in this sentence.
I could hardly make out the ship in the distance. "Make out" is a phrasal verb meaning "to see in the distance."
Look at those clouds! It's going to rain. "It's" is a contraction of "it is," the present tense. Use the future continuous when making a prediction based on the evidence at hand.
Unless he comes, we won't have much to talk about. "Unless he comes" is a conditional clause.
He has no interest in continuing the project. Use "no" when preceding a noun that lacks an article.
Where do you think Jane was yesterday? She must have been at home. Use "might have + participle" for a past modal verb of probability. The other forms include "could have + participle - possibility, must have + participle - almost certain, can't have + participle - almost certain in a negative way."
Jack told me he was going to come the next day. Use the past progressive tense to refer to events that occurred in the past.
He drove the car out of the garage and left for work. Use the prepositions "out of" when exiting a building.
Jack came into a fortune when his great uncle Jack passed on. The phrasal verb "to come into" means "to inherit."
Unfortunately, Peter has few friends in Tacoma. Use "few" to express a small amount that is considered negative in a disappointing sense.
"I will finish that project soon." Ken said he would finish that project soon."Will" becomes "would" in reported speech.
In his position as managing director, he is responsible for more than 300 employees. Use "as" to indicate function, use "like" to indicate similarity.
She wished she had bought a new car. The use of the verb "wish" in the past is followed by the past perfect similar to the third conditional.
Fiestas have been made in Cologne, Germany for many years now. "Have been made" is the correct present perfect passive form required in this case.
I think you had better see a doctor. "Had better," "ought to," and "should" are all ways of giving advice.
You'll be leaving for Tokyo soon, won't you? Use the opposite of the auxiliary for a question tag.
During the last market session, the Dow Jones dropped 67 points. Use "during" with a noun, "while" with a verb clause.
