Junk-Orama 11/03/09

So what’s the deal here, I guess tonight I’ll be the default junk maker since you all fell down on the job.

Watch the jump it’s tricky. 

 

 

Star-divide

Where were we, oh yah, I might not be commenting much in the next year or two. I need to make a concerted effort to get my post to comment ratio 1 to 1. People need to know I’m serious about these here Blazers. What better way to make them understand.

Go ahead and junk away, meanwhile I’ve got 10 more posts I need to write for today’s sidebar.

Please, just because I don’t reply doesn’t mean I don’t love you all. It also doesn’t mean I think my thoughts are more important than yours. It just means I’m good, and I take my job of posting seriously.

 

I’m not too good with names either, so for the sake of brevity, I’ll just call you all wrong. You’ll probably love all my posts – I’m just that good.

 

 I don't mean to be snarky and I would like to take the time to get to know some of you better, but the profundity of ubiquitous greatness keeps flooding my head and I need to get this stuff published.

***********************************************************************************************************************

Sorry, I couldn’t help myself.

Here’s a far better topic.

If you have had a major, epic change in you’re life, How was it brought on: by a choice you made and perhaps planned, or was it something completely random from an external source that you had no control over.

I heard a long time ago warm milk with a little honey puts a baby right to sleep.

Not only babies, I’ve tried it – it works, and tastes good.
You probably need to wait for a parent to answer. But I’d imagine it won’t take much longer. You should definitely be good before the weeks over.

How old is the baby?

In my experience if they are younger than 6 months, then you just have to wait it out.

If they are older than 6 months and are eating solid food, then just stuff them full of food and they will sleep for a good 12 hours before they get hungry again.

It’s really more about the time change than the baby. She actually sleeps more regularly than I do. I was just complaining because I’m not a morning person.

Interesting

I haven’t noticed a change in the sleeping habits of our kids (2yrs and 10 months) since the time change. We put them down at the same time (7pm-ish) and when 8:30am rolls around they are ready to get up.

I would suggest putting up some blackout blinds so that it is dark in the room regardless of the hour.

Miami +14.3
Orlando +11.0
Phoenix +10.7
San Antonio +9.7
Denver +7.3

OKC is +4.0, I think they started last year like –20 and stayed very low for quite some time before rising in the second half of the year.

the process of change

I just handed in a paper on the topic for my Motivational Interviewing class. The topic had to cover human nature and include thought on whether change is an intrinsic capacity of human nature. The bulk of my thoughts covered the whole tabula rasa or “blank slate” debate. I think the purpose was to motivate a belief that anyone can change. Too bad the teacher isn’t going to get that. I took the side we are but human animals only deluding ourselves into believing what we think is purposeful intent is really instinct and social pressures pushing us in new directions. Well it wasn’t that harsh but I’m certain it will raise an eyebrow. I love thought papers because you can’t really get dinged for having contrary opinion. Grammar gets hit hard, but not opinion. Worst part of it though is I spelled the prof’s name wrong on the title page.

I wish people would stop saying "don't worry about it" as if I'm losing sleep over it

House's opinion on change is the best
House contends that "wanting" to change leaves hope that change can be had; as long as you don’t try, you have hope and you can continue to imagine life on the metaphorical "other side." He’s not saying, however, that anyone can change. Change of circumstance does not equal change of one’s fundamental stripes. You are who you are.

Funny day yesterday.

My car broke down at Fred Meyers:(

Then went to work and took an “escalated” call from a partner. She went on a tirade about how our system was down and she couldn’t support our client.

I don’t think she even asked for my name but continue on yelling such things as , “I’m so embarrassed…I will tell all your clients that this is not working and it’s NOT our fault and it’s your fault. I’m just trying to do my job and this isn’t even my job and it’s two weeks before they are suppose to launch and you haven’t launched it”

I started laughing and she said, “Why are you laughing?”

I said, “Well, I find it absurd that you are running around being hysterical instead of calmly trying to figure out how to solve this with us for the clients. Pointing fingers will get you no where. We have two weeks to figure this really small issue out. And by the way, I don’t want you to ever support any of our clients again. I will call them directly to make sure the cause of the problem is the system and not you being unable to manage a program.”

She was uber annoying. I think she was yelling at me while eating…Smacking her lips.

I then called our clients and they were absolutely patient and fine. 3rd party vendors / middle-ware can either be great or just that, a 3rd party to the party.

I find her being rude on the phone refreshing though…It’s a talent that is often masked in email now.

I don't mind the ones who have a real gripe

In my shift now, I get a guy calling around 4:00 AM to check status on stuff and he asks for a supervisor. He starts each call with, “Look, i don’t care that it’s 4:00 AM there. I’m sick of the supervisor not calling me back.” I always give responses like, “If you called during business hours, you would be able to speak to him directly.”

Call Centers

I’m so happy I don’t have to work directly with the general public anymore.

I used to work in downtown Portland for a telecom company that produced/serviced prepaid phone cards (Walmart cards, Costco cards, etc). Before I was a manager, I was a CSR. We’d get all kinds of strange callers. Especially during graveyard shift. I don’t miss being hit on by drunk, elderly women over the phone.

They could, but Apple hates Flash and doesn't allow Adobe to install the player

You can even make iPhone apps with Flash. They look a bit different, but they would work. And since YouTube has H 264 encoding in the background and just uses Flash as the front-end, that big argument for Flash fell flat after Apple introduced a special application for YouTube shortly after the launch.

The only thing that still speaks for Flash (at least in Apple’s view, and they would have a few technologies that could kill it) is that designers can quickly learn it without understanding much about coding and that thus a lot of people know how to use it. But it’s heavy on resources for mobile devices, often results in over-designed websites that don’t let the user do what he wants quickly, and the rest of the functionality will mostly be there with HTML 5.0 and related languages and technologies. Adobe Air has likely a better chance to get accepted.

Re: PETA. As a vegan, I don’t hate PETA, although they’re annoying, with questionable ethics (but that’s a whole other thing). But because of the rabies issue, that bat was doomed anyway, so there’s not much point mourning it. And if they want to be mad, they should be mad at the person who (probably) brought it to the game and released it. Poor bat.

For the people that think other "superior" coaches aren't criticized by their fanbases...

Following one of our recent uninspired wins or losses, someone said they’re sure Sloan isn’t criticized the way Nate is around here in response to my claim that all fanbases call for the coach’s head when the team is struggling. I already know Phil isn’t immune, I’ve seen him get bashed as well, but I wasn’t able to say for sure about Sloan.

The following Sloan bashing is all just from one topic. No coach is immune, and if the reflex to call for the coach’s head inevitably happens everywhere to every coach no matter what their track record, what makes one think that replacing Nate will solve our woes? Replace with who? Not to say replacing the coach isn’t sometimes the answer, but I’m annoyed by the quick impulse to demand that action and the assumption that other coaches aren’t as fallible.
/end rant

….absolutely pathetic. Sloan and Boozer have to go…..is there anybody who doubts those two are the problem???
I think Jerry Sloan has to go. I’ve been saying this for YEARS, but now, it’s obvious the the team just needs a change of scenery, a different voice. They have tuned Jerry out completely, and his coaching methods/philosophies are no long resonating with the team. I don’t think they are throwing in the towel necessarily, but about as close as you can get. Just something as simple as not dropping into the paint to leave three point shooters wide open would bolster our opponents PPG by at least 5-8 points. Sadly, Sloan will never be fired, he will have to leave on his own terms. Thus, we’ll continued to be mired in mediocrity, something we’re all too familiar with.
Boy, scary comments from DWill after the game… paraphrased…

“this is the team we got, this is the coach we got, this is what we got.”
…Or we trade Booze for a D-big and fire Sloan.
The following is my fresh new rant on Jerry Sloan and why I want him gone. If this offends you, do not continue any further:

I can understand wanting to deal Boozer for another piece (Millsap makes him expendable, and if he’s not committed to being there it could make sense to cut bait) but Jerry Sloan is a great coach – abrassive, but the results don’t lie. As they say, the grass is always greener…

Exactly

EVERY coach, and even most star players who’ve been on a team long enough, are going to get endlessly criticized by the fanbase.

Sloan is a big reason why Utah is always good. They aren’t the BEST team because of the players, not because of him. But the fans know nothing but him, so he’s an easy target. Plus he’s abrasive, a jerk, mean, and so that MUST be why the team hasn’t won a title, right?

by Mortimer on Nov 3, 2009 9:53 AM PST up reply actions  

Yeah, that hate from a vocal minority of Utah Jazz fans toward Jerry Sloan totally boggles my mind.

Jerry Sloan is an extremely talented coach, as well as a brilliant offensive mind. Sure, Sloan’s system is just a modernized version of John Wooden’s old UCLA high-post offense — along with a heavy dose of pick-and-roll included it — however, that’s a tremendously effective scheme and hard to defend against as an opposing team.

So I've seen thse ads...

and I’m wondering the max nail size this will drive.
.
And yes, nail guns are WAAAAAY cool. Just a lot of fun to drive a nail with the squeeze of a trigger. A long time ago, we had a contractor friend help us build our house….he showed me how to bypass the safety so you could shoot nails at a target. The scary thing was that alcohol was involved.
.
Fortunately, we al survived without any nails to the head (channeling Happy Gilmore) or other body parts…

You are so right.

I wish they built a tool to make it easy to drill in Trex boards. Or a Trex board gun? That would make someone really rich.

I built my deck with Trex and it was a pain to drill each fastener. Typically, you need to drill a hole first then drill the fastener but since Trex is so tough, it takes a while.

I don’t usually build things, but enjoy building big projects…My wife bought me a set of tools for Xmas that I was requesting for a long time, and the next Memorial Day 4 day weekend, I decided to build this deck with my bro to let her know that the tools do come handy.

These boards are heavy.

I had to double the foundation because to my surprise, the Trex board was very very flexible.

And just to note, my kids WERE NOT close to the saw…ever…hahaha

Finish product with some Target furniture on sale

My wife had no idea I was building flower boxes inside the deck, and that was her surprise “gift.”

Anyways, tools are the best thing ever invented…or some people think “outsourcing” is better but finishing something like a deck is pretty fun…My next project this spring is a giant Koi pond. Built one for my Dad for his 50th bday a while ago, and it’s nice to have around the house.

I’m not even a handy guy but when you get tools as a gift, you just wanna build. Bedge BBQ at my house next summer!!!!!!!

overall, it’s fine and matches the plan… he just messed up little details that should be basic construction knowledge… for instance the steps don’t have a lip to them, rather he notched the steps so the trim board is flush with the edge, which means it looks uneven… it’s just a lot of little things that don’t make sense… but if you didn’t know it wasn’t supposed to be like that, you wouldn’t notice

I was at a friends house for a BBQ and he had a little boy named Sam who was old enough to walk, but not talk, and he still wore diapers. He stuck his hand down the back of his diaper and pulled it out with a pea size turn on the end of his middle finger. I said to Sam, “I think Rob wants to smell it.” And before Rob could do anything, Sam stuck his middle finger in one of Rob’s nostrils and his index finger in the other nostril and when he pulled it out, the turd was gone. His dad was trying to chastise him but couldn’t because he was laughing so hard.

it seems like just under 100$ diff in price on a pair of seats at the straight up price, but I’d sell at or better than my season ticket price for anyone here. Prob do it for $60 or so depending on the game.

I was worried the wife would be that way

But she has been SUPER DUPER nice to me, when traditionally we haven’t gotten along.

I think it’s because I’m really good with the kids, both being fun-play-partner and stern disciplinarian. I help explain to the kids why they are failures to us. She already complained to her husband how much better I am with the kids than him.

I actually don’t usually sit on the couch, I sit on the recliner next to it if I am watching a game… which is weird also, usually the recliner is reserved for the dominant male presence in the house, but my friend prefers the couch!

Takes all kinds.

I’m totally gonna pull a “Mercury” and make someone else’s pet/child like me more than their ‘true’ owner/parent. MUAHAHAHAHAHA.

He shoulda’ understood no real team wanted him, and signing a… what, a 1 year deal?… with Memphis was scraping the bottom of the barrel.

Then he could use this season to show the world the lessons he had learned, and accept a mentorship/veteran role and help bring the younger players along. It would be a nice end to his stat-heavy career.

Chad Ford doesn't think we'll keep Outlaw after free agency
10. Travis Outlaw, Blazers
Outlaw has been somewhat a forgotten man in Portland. He’s been a solid scorer and shooter for the Blazers the past few seasons. He’s still young and athletic, and given all the money the Blazers are going to have to commit to young players such as Roy and Aldridge, he probably won’t be re-signed by the team.

Reminds me of this story that didn’t quite make it into the final cut of the bible

A man was about to drown in the Lake Tiberias, and a finally a boat came to rescue him, but the man said “don’t worry, God will save me.” The boat sails away. A second boat came to rescue him, but the man insisted again “God will save me” and the boat sails away. After a few more hours he drowned and went to heaven. When he saw God the man started to curse and said “all my life I trusted and worshipped you, but in my darkest hour when I’m about to drown you betray me. Where were you, Lord?” And God said “well, I did send you two boats”.

so I think I know how I’m going to “attack” this essay.

I agree with Eliot for the most part, but I think he is really not putting enough emphasis on talent of the artist him/herself. I could study art/poetry all my life and I could never recreate the Sistine Chapel, write a work like The Waste Land, etc.

by DrivetheLane on Nov 3, 2009 11:27 AM PST up reply actions  

Yeah, but even if you had the capacity to paint the sistine chapel, it wouldn’t do you much good—people don’t pay/care about that kind of art anymore. There is a reason why you don’t brush up on your ability to write in elizabethian pentameter lines. Can you name one famous living poet? I don’t know that can name 5. Poetry as an art form may be the victim of Eliot’s own example—a dead form. Talent is important, in context to the world you live in. Does that make sense? I agree that talent means a lot, and maybe you shouldn’t pander to the times. But, let me ask you this—Would you rather be a screen writer or a painter of portraits? If you thought touching people and the masses (maybe in light of your last assignment and tolstoy) is it better to write family guy episodes, or the next major plays?

by EvilKaramazov on Nov 3, 2009 11:07 AM PST up reply actions  

Well obviously you'd want to work in the medium where the masses do pay attention

which would be TV/Movies. But even so, there is still a problem of “talent” or lack thereof (ie I can go study screenwriting and like, but I doubt I could write anything as close to as good as Th e Wire).

A poet must embody “the whole of the literature of Europe from Homer,” while, simultaneously, expressing his contemporary environment.

Perhaps changing the word poet to something else makes more sense, because you do see an influence in some movies or TV Shows from European literature or even the works of Homer.

Yeah, I’m just throwing stuff out there—this is a really challenging topic—you should be more excited than you seem to be. Francis Bacon said we need not look to the past, rather let us stand on the shoulders of giants—which is something we practice. Not many know the tradition anymore—Homer to Dante, etc. The times (life now), in my opinion, have corrupted the arts. There are a lot of different arguments about the purpose of art in society. Others will state opposite to this claim—namely that artists serve as the banner carriers of the future, to be condemned by their peers. Do you want to be in TV because touching as many people as possible is the key—I’ll tell you this, there are a lot of no-talent-adz-clowns in TV and Film, but they are moving more people than the poet laureate.

by EvilKaramazov on Nov 3, 2009 11:22 AM PST up reply actions  

there is also that quote about “those who don’t look to the past are doomed to repeat it” but I don’t think that would apply here, unless I started talking about the Dark Ages before the renaissance when art and poetry started to kind of die out.

An interesting observation to think about maybe is what we call shock value—Something that is only interesting in so far as it is completely different than what came early that week/year, etc. The fountain, by Duchamp might be the most influential piece of art in the 20th century, for this reason. I think it all leads to doom, but i’m old school and hip to the tradition….

per chad ford chat

Chad, NW questions, Do you think Nate Mcmillian is the right coach to take the Blazers to next level. It seems like a lot of the players on the team do not fit Coach Mcmillians system. Team is built to run but they are one of the slowest teams in the league. What are your expections for the blazers this year?
Chad Ford

I see your point Jay, but I think Nate’s been a great coach. They are struggling to adjust to having Oden on the floor more and Andre Miller … but I think it will happen. Who out there, who’s available, is a better coach than Nate?

no i'm not.

if a guy jumps from behind the 3 point line and dunks the ball, it’s a 3 pointer. if his foot is on the line, it’s a 2 pointer. just like a regular jump shot. i’m almost positive this would be true. i wouldn’t try to fool ya, Tom.

of course, like Norsk says below, this will probably never happen. I wish I could remember what happened on NBA Jam.

Blazer thought of the day

Nate needs to take some time today and re-teach Miller and Blake how to use screens properly. Poor Joel and Greg. They run all the way out there and one of two things happen.
1. The PG moves before he is set causing a moving pick. (Joel fouls every game from this and its not his fault)
2. The PG goes WAY around him, thus negating any purpose the screen had. (This happens to Greg all the time. He is huge, bake/miller should be clipping his shoulder as they go around.. they leave too much room and the guards slip under making it impossible for Greg to roll to the hoop.)
This is just poor use of screens and its kinda sad to see professionals do it.

Also has any team ever had as many defensive 3 seconds as the Blazers? We get like what 3 a game?

by GreatOden'sRaven on Nov 3, 2009 12:35 PM PST reply actions  

You are sooooooo right.

I have no idea why our guards cannot figure that if you swing way out around the person setting the pick……then there was no reason to set the pick. I thought they taught that in middle school (junior high when I went)….

And there was a guy that worked for a big hamburger chain. The manager told him to drain the fryer into a plastic pickle bucket for cleaning. Unfortunately, the manager did not realize the oil was still hot. The oil melted the bucket, and it also melted the guy’s shoes to his feet. It was one of the worst things I have heard.

look look look

you’ve never had to be clutch at bowling. I’ve come through hundreds of times for myself and my teams. Ive come through in league, single tournaments, high school, national team tournaments. You just dont have the experience. If it comes down to me needing 3 strikes in the tenth to win, you can guarantee that Im gonna get all three. Just cause you can bowl 170’s outside of the real game doesnt me you can do it when it counts.

talk is cheap..

All I need to do is bowl a 200 and you cannot win your way. Nothing clutch is involved there.. I’m sure my chances of winning outright are slim unless you can’t perform under pressure.. but your chances of beating me by 100 are becoming a distant memory..

you can talk big and say “all I need to do is bowl a 200” but the fact is that you wont do it. No one practicing for 2 weeks after having never been a bowler is going to be pulling out 200’s on a whim. Sorry my sister has been bowling for the last 6 years and is being coached by a professional bowler and she doesn’t even get up to 200 very often.

this is just my opinion, but I believe people have a basic fundamental understanding

of right and wrong. Killing someone falls under that category: it’s hardwired in to a person to know that is wrong. The only thing “culture” can do, is somehow override that hard wiring. There’s no excuse to kill someone, even for “cultural” reasons.

yes, i get what you're saying.

what i’m trying to say (perhaps not clearly) is that i think the culture people devise has the potential to overcome the “hardwiring” that people may have. I think something has to tell people killing is ok before they believe that. Not the other way around. And in some cases, that “something” is a bunch of people who decided they need to do ritual sacrifices.

I don't think that referencing cultures who did ritual sacrifices and the roman gladiators shows that we aren't hardwired to think that killing is wrong

it could very easily simply be that the morality of killing can be “unlearned”. That is to say that we are hardwiring to think that killing is wrong, but if we live in a culture where killing for sport is accepted practice then we become numb to it and then we accept it.

To look at it another way, and possibly stretching the analogy too far, we have all heard a song on the radio and at first said “That song is terrible” (i.e. our hardwired reaction) and change the station. But over the course of a couple weeks of hearing it on the radio our hard wired reaction shifts from revulsion to “its kind of catchy” to “this song is awesome”

but what if it's the other way around?

what if morality about killing is something that has to be learned instead of “unlearned”?

there are many cultures whose gender roles from our perspective, are switched and therefor the “lesser” of the two genders (some cultures have 3 genders) would be the “male”. the point im making though is that, these cultures become less w/ globalization and the spread of western patriarchial culture

jake, I have a question for you… do you like basketball for the aesthetic qualities? You seem to disregard flashiness entirely in favor of whatever wins games… aka you are less down on zbo than some of us, etc.

Do you really not care about how the game is played?

I watch non-Blazer games totally differently from Blazer games

I like aesthetically pleasing basketball as much as the next guy (though I do appreciate the players who do the less-than-pretty things that help teams win), but when it comes to the Blazers, I just want to win.

Man, I might feel differently than nearly everyone on this issue.

To me, the most pleasing style of basketball is smashmouth — such as the New York Knicks of the mid-‘90s — but nobody really plays that way anymore. heck, I’m all about rough fouls, hard screens, crashing the galss, talking smack, and even throwing down with fisticuffs on occasion. That, without a doubt, is my kind of basketball.

If you have had a major, epic change in you’re life, How was it brought on: by a choice you made and perhaps planned, or was it something completely random from an external source that you had no control over.

i like it’s like evolution.. and.. kinda like.. a punctuated equilibrium.. that I mostly don’t change directly through internal sources… but variation and the potential for change is often setoff by a major external change…

Darwin had some massively important theories. Most were correct as theories just not completely in practice.

by GreatOden'sRaven on Nov 3, 2009 4:41 PM PST up reply actions  

sure sure sure..

but I find it fascinating how you got neo-freudians and neo-Darwinians.. because each one set forth “massive important theories” but both lacked any sense of the practical and enough scientific knowhow to take it further.. but instead of their theories just being built upon straight up.. strong movements developed for and against them within their sciences. but even those neo-movements had to take significant departures from certain notions of their founders..

Kidd is 40 years old, I ain't gonna count on him staying healthy either

Murphy, despite some injuries, was top 15… he’s a fantasy baller.

how are FG% and FT% calculated in our league?

do they take the percentages for each player and average it out or do they go through the whole thing of adding shots attempted, shots made, etc.?

by cloudydays on Nov 3, 2009 6:28 PM PST reply actions  

you wish they took percentages and averaged them

it’s total shots made divided by total shots attempted, so a 1/4 shooting day isn’t gonna hurt too bad, but a 4/16 could kill

So I've been sick for a few days

and when you have the flu sometimes, you get in this mental rut where you can’t sleep, but you’re really comfortable, so you just lay there. I had the ending song from Portal stuck in my head for about 2 hours. It was a trip.

Here’s the song if you’d like to enjoy it.

i realllllllllllllllly hate your sig :(
