(Disclaimer: I don’t normally write about sports or the NBA here at “Blank Stares and Blank Pages” for two reasons. 1) I’ve got a separate sports blog and 2) because the NBA sucks donkey balls.

The NBA Finals just finished up last night with the Miami Heat beating the Oklahoma City Thunder to capture the second championship in franchise history. |
According to Twitter and Facebook, however, The bigger news is that oft-maligned superstar LeBron James now has a championship ring after years of coming up just short of the ultimate prize whilst winning numerous individual awards. |
Honestly, as far as I’m concerned, t |
I’m still ruminating on themes of “practice” and “mastery” I touched on in some previous posts. This blog is starting to serve as a “parking lot” for ideas that I hope to weave together into a more coherent form someday. |
I’m not sure what exactly sparked off this latest thought, but I’ve been noticing the distinction between teaching first-hand and second-hand knowledge. Teaching something we know first-hand is pretty obvious – I can teach a child how to tie a shoelace, or a colleague how to specify a statistical model. I don’t have to... |
Secondary knowledge is something I don’t have direct experience with, and here it gets interesting. Most of us adults (wh |

NEW YORK (AP) — Why is Netflix raising its prices? In part, because the company miscalculated how many people still want to receive DVDs by mail each month, a more expensive service to provide compared to its streamed Internet videos. |
Netflix has been trying to lure subscribers away from its DVDs by offering cheaper plans that include movies and TV episodes delivered over its Internet streaming service. In November, it began offering a streaming-only plan for $8, its cheapest option at the time. Yet Netflix customers aren't flocking to Internet vide... |
Many consumers are unwilling to give up the trademark red envelopes. DVDs feature newer titles and the latest theatrical releases that aren't available thro |

the old glaux has a function to read bmp files... But most people look on the internet for functions to read tga/png files. |

Just wanted to show you my newly painted vanity. Yes, I actually do sit here and put on my make up. It really is rather fun! |
This piece of furniture was left in a house that my sisters lived in in college. Somehow I inherited it, and it sat in our basement for years. I finally realized that I had the perfect spot in our bedroom for it. That was three years ago! It took me three years to decide on a color! Can you believe that! The lamp on th... |
I don’t know how it could get better than this for a concert venue. And to boot, in New York State’s Finger Lakes and ten minutes from the Inn. |
You gotta see this video. Don’t know if this will work as I’ve never posted a video on my blog before. But, if it doesn’t work and you want to see, become a fan of the 1795 Acorn Inn on facebook. I successfully posted the video there. Thanks. |
Guess who is going to see Lady Antelbellum at CMAC this Sunday? Check it out… There are some great concerts coming up this summer. |

In Case You Aren't Hibernating... |

It’s generally acknowledged in the live music and bar venue business that the busiest night of the year is usually Thanksgiving Eve, the Wednesday night before Thanksgiving. That is when more people tend to be out and about frequenting venues, and more venues stage live music performances. |
I have no facts or figures to back this up, but based on my own observations over a quarter-century of covering the area live music scene, it seems that among the slowest nights of the year tend to be the first weekend in January immediately following the New Year’s holiday. People are generally burned out after the ho... |

i went because my class ended up being 45 minutes instead of 3 hours.i saw and said hi to a bunch of ya'll. |
too crowded.seriously,how did that line move SO slow?and for half a donut?how long does it take to pick up half a donut? |
It wasn't a real line, it was more of a shmooze. People were just chilling and getting to the doughnuts sooner or later. I tried a root beer and really liked it. |
I thought I saw Mumbles, too! But wasn't 100% sure and didn't want to be the weirdo from the Internet saying hi to the wrong person. |
The crowd was insane. I was impressed with the cats' behavior. |
Just two years after missing the playoffs, the Petes returned to OHL supremacy, winning the franchise's ninth OHL Championship in the Petes 50th anniversary season. |
With the core of returning players from the 2004-05 Eastern Conference Finalist team, Petes General Manger Jeff Twohey made some key acquisitions to solidify a championship run. In the off-season, he picked up goaltender David Shantz and acquired Steve Downie from the Windsor Spitfires in November. In December, Twohey ... |
