One of the windiest storms in recent history caused widespread power outages and property damage.
The strongest windstorm in recent years ripped Rochester to shreds Wednesday — blocking roads, damaging homes and businesses, destroying trees and knocking out electricity to more than 100,000 customers in Monroe County and tens of thousands more nearby.
It was the most widespread power outage here in 14 years. With very cold temperatures and snow in the forecast, some may have to endure without electricity for days.
Countless roads throughout the area remained closed Wednesday evening by fallen trees and downed power lines, and first responders raced from one report of sparking wires to another.
Monroe County's 911 emergency communications system fielded more calls for service than any single day since the epic ice storm of 1991, officials said, and pleas for help were so frequent and frantic at one point Wednesday afternoon that the system became overloaded and officials begged people to stop calling.
"I've lived here for 40 years and never seen anything like it," said Peter Petry of Irondequoit, who was taking photographs of wind-whipped Lake Ontario on Wednesday afternoon.
It made for a chaotic evening commute.
Travel was snarled everywhere, in part because traffic signals on some roads lacked power and didn't work. The towns of Greece and Irondequoit, among the hardest-hit, declared states of emergency and ordered motorists off the roads and pedestrians off the sidewalks.
"We just want everyone to stay home until we can identify all the hazardous areas. We want the community to be safe," said Bill Reilich, town supervisor in Greece, where the Unity health-care complex lacked full power and a tarp on the roof of Arcadia Middle School had been partly shorn off, forcing a partial evacuation of the building.
Most school districts in Monroe County will be closed Thursday, including Greece, East and West Irondequoit, Rochester, Webster and Gates Chili.
A freight train may have been blown from the tracks in Genesee County, and bowled-over tractor-trailers blocked several expressways Wednesday afternoon. A number of flights at Greater Rochester International Airport were delayed, canceled or diverted in-flight to less-windy airports.
"We tried to land and it was the worst turbulence of my life," said Nichole Gantshar, a passenger on an American Airlines regional jet whose pilot aborted a landing here Wednesday afternoon. She and five fellow passengers — one of them acclaimed young author Yaa Gyasi — wound up driving back to Rochester in a rented SUV.
Winds gusted to 40, 50 and 60 mph much of the day, broke 70 mph around 1 p.m. and then hit an astonishing 81 mph at 1:35 p.m. It was the second-strongest wind gust ever measured at Greater Rochester International Airport, trailing only one of 89 mph recorded during an unusual summer storm in September 1998.
The winds were responsible for the worst spate of power outages here since an ice storm in April 2003. Power lines were still falling Wednesday night.
"Customers in many areas may be without power for multiple days," RG&E spokeswoman Juanita Washington said. Officials said the company would not be able to make a full assessment of the damage and provide restoration-time estimates until Thursday.
Monroe County Executive Cheryl Dinolfo said about 150 utility crews from the Albany area were coming to help restore power in the Rochester region.
At 11 a.m. Thursday, about 91,800 Rochester Gas and Electric customers in Monroe County — nearly a third of all of its customers in Monroe — had no electricity. That number was up more than 1,000 from Wednesday night.
An additional 19,300 National Grid customers in the county also were without power at 11 a.m. Thursday. That number was down about 2,000 from the night before.
Another 36,700 customers of RG&E, National Grid and New York State Electric and Gas in the five counties surrounding Monroe were without power at 11 a.m. Thursday. That total was down several thousand from Wednesday night.
The severe ice storm in 2003 left 142,000 RG&E customers in the region without electricity.
There were no reports of serious injuries related to the storm. The emergency department at Strong Memorial Hospital treated about a half-dozen weather-related cases during the day, a spokeswoman said.
Monroe County set up three EMS stations for residents in need of oxygen. Patients who have lost power and oxygen equipment functionality and can't reach their provider may go to one of three locations: Perinton Ambulance, 1400 Turk Hill Road; Gates Ambulance, 1001 Elmgrove Road; or Greece Ambulance, 867 Long Pond Road.
The Greater Rochester Chapter of the American Red Cross opened a shelter at the David F. Gantt Center, 700 North St., Rochester, for people displaced by or without power after the windstorm.
An unknown but considerable number of homes and businesses were damaged by falling trees or the wind itself, which sheered off roofs and shingles in many places. Social media sites were filled with pictures of structures rendered uninhabitable by a gust of wind.
"I'm still in shock. I just can't get over this," said Susan Iannaccone, surveying the Culver Road dental office where her husband, Dr. Brian Iannaccone, practices. The wall of the dental waiting room was staved in by a huge fallen tree.
"Thank God we were not open," she said.
Clusters of utility poles were reported down in several locations, including South Winton Road in Henrietta and Long Pond Road in Greece, which could necessitate days-long reconstruction work.
More than 150 poles fell or broke during the windstorm last Wednesday, which lasted several hours in the evening and had a peak gust of 64 mph. State regulators said then they were launching an investigation into the reason for so many pole failures.
Neither RG&E's spokewoman nor a spokesman for the state Public Service Commission responded when asked Wednesday how many poles had failed in this week's storm, which had much fiercer winds and lasted for a full half-day.
Meteorologists said strong winds of the sort experienced last Wednesday and again this Wednesday are not unusual this time of year, when powerful low-pressure systems roam the continent. Most of the high-wind events in recent years have occurred in January, February or March.
This particular system was fueled by a very strong current of air 3,000 to 4,000 feet above the surface, said National Weather Service meteorologist Bob Hamilton. But what made the winds in this storm unusually potent was, of all things, the plentiful sunshine Rochester enjoyed on Wednesday.
That sun heated the earth's surface, causing ground-level air to rise and create thermals — the updrafts that can cause airplane turbulence, Hamilton noted.
The thermals mixed with the fast-moving wind several thousand feet up, displacing that cooler air and causing the current to dive toward the surface, where it enhanced the winds already blowing there.
The result? People saw things they've never seen before: The windows of a van blown out by the wind as it sat on a downtown street, pedestrians knocked clean off their feet, a piece of wood propelled through the side of a house like something from the move Twister.
Though it seems incredible, the wind may have dislodged a CSX freight train from the tracks. The 29-car freight derailed in the town of Batavia, Genesee County, at just about the time that 81 mph wind gust would have been buffeting the area, though railroad officials weren't prepared to say Wednesday whether the gale was responsible. No one was hurt in the accident, and no spills or leaks were reported.
At Rochester's airport, many of the scheduled commercial flights Wednesday afternoon were canceled or delayed, and some pilots chose to divert in-flight to Syracuse, Buffalo and even Pittsburgh rather than land here during the peak winds. At least some of those diverted flights eventually arrived in Rochester later Wednesday.
Rattled passenger Gantshar, who is executive director of the Rochester City Ballet, was returning from a family visit when her plane began to shake and shudder on approach to the airport here.
"All of a sudden the pilot went back up to a pretty high altitude. There was really bad wind shear and we weren't able to land," she said. "The pilot made the very wise decision that it was not safe to land. Obviously a lot of other pilots were making the same decision. And all of us on the plane were glad they did."
Gantshar's American Airlines flight, which originated in Chicago, was the sixth to divert to Syracuse, she said. The airline planned to charter a bus for the passengers, but they feared it would be a long wait. So six of them, including author Gyasi, who is giving a talk Thursday at the University of Rochester, found their own way back.
"It was without question the worst flight of my life," Gantshar said. And things didn't improve all that much once she got to Rochester.
"I can't go home because I have no power," she said Wednesday night.

North Korea's 3rd ballistic missile in five days... South Korea-U.S.-Japan joint exercises protest
North Korea fired an unidentified ballistic missile into the East Sea today, the Joint Chiefs of Staff said. Military authorities are analyzing specifications such as range, altitude, and speed. North Korea fired one short-range ballistic missile into the East Sea from the Taecheon area in Pyeongbuk on the 25th, and two short-range missiles from the Sunan area in Pyongyang yesterday into the East Sea.

Q: Code generation from jinja2 ast Let's say I have a jinja template

------- Information --------

{% set p1 = getP1('dataset') %}

    Information

    A
    {{p1.a}}

    B
    {{p1.b}}

    C
    {{p1.c}}

I can parse the code with jinja2 to the jinja2 Template, where the code is the string which I pasted above.
In [58]: from jinja2 import Environment

In [59]: env = Environment()

In [60]: m = env.parse(code)

In [61]: m
Out[61]: Template(body=[Output(nodes=[TemplateData(data=u"\n\n\n
------- Information --------
\n\n")]), Assign(target=Name(name='p1', ctx='store'), node=Call(node=Name(name='getP1', ctx='load'), args=[Const(value=u'dataset')], kwargs=[], dyn_args=None, dyn_kwargs=None)), Output(nodes=[TemplateData(data=u"\n\n
\n\t
\n\t\tInformation	\n\t
\n\t
\n\t\tA	\n\t\t"), Getattr(node=Name(name='p1', ctx='load'), attr='a', ctx='load'), TemplateData(data=u'	\n\t
\n\t
\n\t\tB	\n\t\t'), Getattr(node=Name(name='p1', ctx='load'), attr='b', ctx='load'), TemplateData(data=u'	\n\t

\n\t\tC	\n\t\t'), Getattr(node=Name(name='p1', ctx='load'), attr='c', ctx='load'), TemplateData(data=u'	\n\t
\n
')])])

How can I convert back the template to the code?
In the case of python code, we have packages like astor.
According to this issue, jinja2 doesn't support that functionality ! so How can I write a code to do that?

Wendy found herself talking about the Love & Hip Hop Hollywood starlet when she was discussing Rihanna's fans being upset that her world tour is being postponed. Wendy theorized that RiRi's a bit entitled because of the way her career got started.
*Then* came the poor Teairra Mari shade.
Remember that girl Tia Maria, who was supposed to be the Rihanna of Roc-A-Fella? [audience yells Teairra Mari] Well, whatever. Wasn't Tia Maria a spirit that our parents used to drink back in the '60s?
Whatcha got in that cup, Miss Wendy?
Kopy that. What do you think of Wendy calling Teairra "Tia Maria"?


What If You Have Nothing New or Unique to Say?
It's not about what you say, but HOW you say it.
It took me a long time to become fully comfortable with this blog.
Sure, I knew how to write and I knew what I wanted to say. I knew my audience and how to create content my readers could easily relate to. But I often found myself worrying about all the other "writing blogs" out there. All the other writers who were in this space also writing about writing.
What made my blog different than all the rest? What made mine special?
Here's the thing: In writing, there is only one true way to stand out from everyone else pursuing the same goals and dreams you are. And it's not necessarily by having the most "unheard of" ideas or beliefs.
In reality, there are technically no truly "original" ideas. Every idea you've had, someone else has already had in one form or another.
This does NOT mean all your work has to or will be unoriginal or uninteresting, however.
Because here's the thing: two writers may very well have almost an identical idea. A point they both want to get across. A message they want to send through their work. But each writer will take a very different approach to executing their idea or getting their message across.
Every writer tells a story from their own perspectve. That perspective is shaped by factors completely unique to each individual: Personal experiences. Particular realms of knowledge. Books they've read, movies they've watched, memories they have. Things they believe in. Things they don't.
Each of us has something different to bring into everything we compose. I may have a blog about writing very similar in concept to others' blogs about writing. But my thoughts and opinions are not presented in the exact same way as theirs. With every post, I bring in my own past experiences. My own current struggles and teachable moments and triumphs. I may aim to say the same thing, but I will never say it in the exact same way as someone else.
THAT is what makes a writer unique. Not that they have the most "out there" ideas or beliefs or opinions, but that they make each piece of writing their own. That they allow themselves to shine through every single word. That with everything they write, they add in very small pieces of themselves. Like a trademark. Something that is only theirs that can't be replicated.
I've stopped worrying about whether or not what I put out there has the "wow factor" so many people crave. The point of online publishing isn't to go viral as many times as you can or try to say something "no one" has ever heard of before. The point is to say what's on your mind to say and present it as clearly and skillfully as possible.
Never try so hard it's obvious you're trying hard. Never write something for the sake of the attention you hope it attracts. That's not what writing is about. And if that's what you're after in your writing life, you might want to take a step back and rethink your ambitions.
Say what you feel inspired to say. Take the time to craft your words into something memorable. Don't rush it — write it well. Those who follow you and/or know you will appreciate it. Because it's coming from you personally — and THAT is what makes it worth reading.
Next postShould You Tell Your Friend They're Bad at Writing?
This was the perfect post to read today. Thanks, Meg 😊.
Check out this post from the Novelty Revisions blog that poses the question: What If You Have Nothing New or Unique to Say?


USDA on Monday afternoon announced details of the Trump administration's aid package for farmers suffering trade damage from retaliation by foreign nations against U.S. agricultural exports.
USDA announced a total of $6.1 billion in aid spending on Monday, including $4.7 billion in direct payments to farmers, but said it would authorize up to $12 billion in aid "consistent with our World Trade Organization" obligations. An announcement about further payments will be made in the coming months, if warranted, USDA said. There will be a limit on direct payments of $125,000 per person or legal entity.
As expected, soybean farmers will receive a large portion of the initial direct payments - $1.65 per bushel on 50% of 2018 production for a total of $3.6 billion as a result of the soybean market's collapse due to top buyer China's imposition of a 25% tariff on U.S. soybeans.
Producers of corn, cotton, dairy, hog, sorghum, and wheat will also be eligible for direct payments under the Market Facilitation Program (MFP) to be administered by USDA's Farm Service Agency. Interested producers can apply after harvest is 100% complete and they can report their total 2018 production. MFP applications will be available on line starting on Sept. 4.
Direct payments to hog producers will equal $8 per hog on 50% of Aug. 1 production. Wheat farmers will receive 14 cents per bushel on 50% of production; while sorghum producers will receive 86 cents per bushel; corn producers 1 cent per bushel, and cotton producers 6 cents per pound. Dairy (milk) payments will be 12 cents per hundredweight.
In addition to the direct payments, USDA plans purchases of $1.24 billion worth of 29 different commodities, including nearly $559 million worth of pork, to be spread out over several months.
USDA also announced a $200 million agricultural trade promotion program aimed at helping all sectors of U.S. agriculture. Applications for the ATP will be accepted until November 2, 2018 or until funding is exhausted. Funding should be allocated to eligible participants in early 2019, USDA said.

Murder is the most serious charge an individual can face. A murder conviction often carries a life sentence in prison without parole. Alternatively, if convicted of Capital First-Degree Murder, the jury may impose the death penalty. If you or your loved one is charged with a murder it is in your best interests to speak with an experienced attorney who can help develop the best possible defense.
Without a lawyer, the criminal justice system can be confusing, overwhelming, and overpowering.
Our skilled defense attorneys may be able to demonstrate that you acted in self-defense or in the heat of the moment. We may be able to convince a jury to exonerate you of the crime altogether or only hold you accountable for a lesser degree of murder. If you are a suspect in a murder investigation, do not assume the police will protect your rights. Make sure you have an experienced attorney with you at all times.
Depending on the circumstances and events leading up to the death of the victim, you may be charged with:
First-degree murder or attempted first degree-murder
Voluntary manslaughter and attempted voluntary manslaughter
Felony death by motor vehicle
First degree murder is a Class A felony and is most commonly a willful, deliberate, and premeditated killing of another person. The sentence a defendant receives is largely dependent on the circumstances of the individual case, however a possible punishment can be the death penalty or life in prison without parole. Part of the legal strategy to combat a first-degree murder charge can include insanity, mistaken identity, self-defense, killing in heat of passion, or actual innocence.
Felony Murder is a Class A felony with similar elements to first degree murder. The statute for murder, N.C. General Statute § 14-17, defines felony murder to be a homicide committed in the perpetration or attempted perpetration of at least one of the listed felonies (i.e. arson, rape or a felony sex offense, robbery, kidnapping, burglary, or a felony committed or attempted with the use of a deadly weapon). However, the State is not required to prove premeditation or deliberation under the theory of felony murder but instead must show there was an intent to commit the underlying felony.
Second degree murder is either a Class B1 or B2 felony and can be described as a "catch-all" for all other murders. If the State cannot prove at least one element of first-degree murder, then a conviction under second degree murder will likely be sought. Further, the statute for second-degree murder includes deaths that occur as the result of drug overdoses. Any murder "which shall be proximately caused by the unlawful distribution of opium… or methamphetamine, when the ingestion of such substance causes the death of the user, shall be deemed murder in the second degree…" (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 14-17.)
There are multiple types of manslaughter and having an understanding of the elements that make up each type is imperative to a case. The types of manslaughter are involuntary manslaughter (Class F Felony), voluntary manslaughter (Class D Felony), and vehicular homicide (Class F Felony) or commonly referred to as felony death by motor vehicle. The first and last type of manslaughter are both unintentional killings that occurred through criminally negligent or reckless conduct or while in the commission of a non-felonious crime. The only difference is that vehicular homicide requires a driver to be operating a vehicle. Voluntary manslaughter, on the other hand, is the intentional killing of a person under circumstances where the person was committing a crime other than a felony and in cases of imperfect self-defense.
Not all homicides are the same and the severity of the punishment is based on the circumstances of facts of the case. Facing any murder charge can be a stressful and a daunting experience. Roberts Law Office will provide you and your family with legal counsel during the investigation, pre-trial stages, trial, and sentencing. The sooner you begin developing your defense, the better your chances.
Roberts Law Office attorneys are prepared to use their experience and knowledge to build the best possible defense. Please contact us at info@robertslawnc.com or give us a call at 919-782-8115 to set up a free consultation.

The Taoiseach Brian Cowen has just told the Dail that the Government has no plans to change the date of the budget, which is scheduled to take place on December 7th.
The Taoiseach was answering the question by the Labour Leader Eamon Gilmore in the Dáil moments ago.
Speculation was mounting last week that the budget may be rescheduled for some time in the middle of this month. The Irish Times Economics Editor Dan O'Brien told Newstalk last week that his sources led him to believe that this was very likely.
Why not bring it forward and get it over and done with? Surely the longer the wait the worse off we are on the international stage?
mmm - don't see the sense of bringing out a detailed comprehensive 4 year budget covering all sources of revenue and expenditure and then 2 weeks later going through a detailed comprehensive 1 year budget. Seems daft - why not do the whole lot in one go - announce the 4 year plan, go into more detail on the numbers and plans for 2011 (the "budget") and do it all at the end of Nov.
Seems to me to be a case of not stopping and thinking for a second.
Why would he change anything ever.........?
The Green Party Chairman, Dan Boyle, has indicated that the date of the Budget may change.
Who is in charge of this farce?
Sounds like either the BIFF is lying (probable) or Bozo hasn't bothered to tell him about the change in the budget date (possible).
If true it is utter madness and does not instil confidence.
Perhaps he thinks it is giving the government a second chance to tweak it a bit if the markets react negatively. :roll: Can't be that. This does not make sense.
The title of this thread be changed to "Cowen says Gov has no plans"
If you got Lewis & Orwell together, gave them each a bag of shrooms they still wouldn't come up with 21st Century Ireland!
If the government correctly handles the story of the 4-year national effort (read: spins it to death), then anyone seen to disagree with that effort can and will be branded as dangerous, delusional, populist, anti-European, unIrish, and whatever else the Independent papers can think of.
Then, when the Budget arrives just a couple of weeks later, it will be presented as regrettable but simply an unavoidable part of the 4-year national effort to which every right-thinking Irishman and woman subscribes. There Is No Alternative, Olli Rehn made me do it, etc.
Avoids any issues with libel.
No rush Brian, it's not like this is the third year in a row where the country has shut down for months before the budget as they are too terrified to spend.
You aint seen nothing yet. Wait till the shutdown then the IMF arrive next January.
lads did it ever occur to ye that our taoiseach may not actually now be in charge of when this country has the next budget. it will be decided by lendahand and the finance officials and the eu guys. the taoiseach will just be told. i am told he is now out of the loop and the relevant people are taking advice elsewhere. ie not consulting him as they have no confidence in him.
so his statement id factually true today-cos he is in the dark about the plan to change the date. it will be interesting to watch and see if a date change actually happens.
the govt announce a 4 year plan of cuts and tax rises in november and wait weeks for the lobby groups to ambush them before a budget on dec 7th. i dont think so-does not make sense.
introduce the plan and immediately go to the dail and bring in a budget the following day or so. get it done and over with.
Looks like FF is trying to take the McDaid story off the front pages tomorrow.
lads did it ever occur to ye that our taoiseach may not actually now be in charge of when this country has the next budget.
Most people - certainly anyone who relies on the cretinous Irish media for their "information" anyway - will have completely missed the fact that Olli Rehn and Ashoka Mody have been running Ireland since at least July.
Any pretence at an Independent Irish Republic died a long time ago.

Like their debut album release, it concerned itself with many socially and politically charged themes, resonating with the politically uncertain times of the early 1980s when unemployment was rife and race riots afflicted many of the country's inner cities. One In Ten was an undisguised attack on the Thatcher government of the period.


1) Divine Timing: Remember that foundational word "trust" I mentioned? Create an inherent belief that all things happen when they are supposed to: when the timing is right. Everything needs to align and be in the correct space for our hopes to manifest. And I apologize for using a vague word like "everything", but if I didn't, I 'd have to write your energy encased in positive affirmations and focus, your internal and external balance, your root chakra foundation, the people's attitudes around you, the nurturing of the symbolic seeds you have planted, etc etc etc!-- all need to align (aka everything). Develop patience, trust that what you need will come to you, while establishing positive thoughts towards this wish as though you already have it.
2) Appreciation: Thank whatever higher power you believe in, God(s), Jesus, Angels, Spirit Guides, Energy, Universe (etc) for the good things that come your way. For example, Thank you Universe for letting my dog sleep throughout the night without waking me to go out. BUT, also express thanks for the other stuff. The sad things, the negative things, the unexpected things- they all have something to teach us so your expression of gratitude could be, Thank you Universe for signs pertaining what I need to learn from ...(fill in the blank). All of the "why me's" and "why is this happening" stuff merely places you in the seat of the victim, not in the seat of strength.
3) Signs: Speaking of signs, learn how to ask for them! "Thank you Universe for sending me a sign regarding..." Keep your eyes and ears open! A couple of days ago, I felt life was at a low and, later that day, someone I hadn't heard from in many months sent me an "I love you" text. I knew immediately she was God-sent though her reasons for reaching out to me were her own. Signs do not come in the manner we expect them to. Most of my signs come from strangers who cross my path.
4) The Learning Lesson: Why take an algebra class if you do not intend to learn from it? You may respond, well it's required. Guess what? So is Life. Life requires you to show up and participate. Think back to all the teachers you had who gave out extra points to the kids who spoke up. If you intend to sit in Life's corners, you are missing out on the learning that you are here to do. And, I believe, the lessons you choose to not learn from will follow you here in your next life. Stop wasting time, stop allowing Fear to be present. "Thank you Universe for helping me to see the learning lesson in this situation".
5) Interpret: I wasn't going to make this a rule but it just occurred to me as I wrote this it needs to be here, too. Think outside of the box. I always see white feathers in weird places when I am struggling. Feathers are reminders from our Angels that they are present and support us. Yesterday, I found a tall black feather in my backyard. It was standing straight up in our long un-mowed grass as though someone had placed it there. As I walked towards it, my initial thought was "please be a leaf!" The black color was throwing me for a loop but, no, it was a perfect feather. Black's connotations are bad, unlucky. But, thinking outside the obvious, I also recognized black is my favorite color and, had that feather been white, I wouldn't have given it as much thought. I said my usual, "thank you angels for your reminder" and I did something I never do- I picked up the feather and carried it inside.
Doesn't this beautiful stone just look like November? Many of the leaves have already done their color thing, but there is much beauty to be seen in the colors of November if one just looks. Jasper is one of the oldest known gemstones and is mentioned in the Bible many times. Leopard Jasper is just one of the many varieties. It gets its name from the Greek word, isaspi, which means "spotted stone." Leopard Jasper reflects the duality between dark and light reminding us to see dark as a complement to light rather than the opposite.
Sometimes referred to as Leopardskin Jasper, this is a shamanic stone, which is helpful in journeying and getting in touch with one's power animal or when trying to connect with animals. It serves as a reminder of the oneness we have with the natural world. It is also connected to the physical body supporting and strengthening the spine and thigh muscles. As such, it is most closely associated with the root chakra and the astrological signs of Gemini and Scorpio.
This stone is beneficial for anyone who experiences chronic health problems as it facilitates healing. It supports one during times of stress and helps to bring tranquility and overall wholeness. It helps to unify all aspects of life.
Leopardskin Jasper has benefits on many levels. It is a stone of regeneration and may help you to look and feel younger. It is good for skin problems and can help fight infection and is good for insect stings and animal bites. It is reported to bring you what you really need, not what you think you need! It keeps negative energies away and gives one strength and energy. It can help you in being in the right place at the right time, and being surrounded by people who will be instrumental to your personal growth.
As we become aware this month of the earth shutting down and going to sleep, this stone us help you deepen our connection to the earth. Just as Leopard Jasper reminds us of the duality between light and dark, perhaps we should see November as a complement to spring rather that its opposite, as difficult as that may be.

Ja Morant Burned 31 Seconds By Just Standing Over The Ball Because No Hornets Defended Him
Bally Sports
Point guards have long had the ball rolled to them in late game situations trying not to start the clock until the last possible moment to save as much time as possible, but in recent years it has become far more popular to do so in the middle of action to burn clock while the shot clock remains at :24.
Ja Morant does it as much as anyone, and on Wednesday he took it to a new level in the midst of a Grizzlies blowout of the Hornets in Charlotte. After a LaMelo Ball three made it a 96-67 Memphis lead in the third quarter, Morant had Jon Konchar drop the ball at his feet on the inbound and simply stood there over it as the clock ticked and ticked and ticked with no one from the Hornets coming to defend him. Eventually Terry Rozier would come force him to pick up the ball but not before 31 seconds worked off the clock from the time Ball's three went through the rim.
In this game, it was more a merciful move than anything, as it got both teams a half minute closer to the final buzzer with the game already decided in the third. That said, it's an incredibly funny visual of Ja standing by himself over the ball waiting to see how long he could get away with it, while the Charlotte crowd got increasingly mad at him for it.
