My frustration really should be directed at LeBron James for pulling off that Academy Award Winning Performance golf clap

 My frustration really should be directed at LeBron James for pulling off that Academy Award Winning Performance (golf clap). Me being one of the best drivers andcreators and and-oneplay-makers in the game, I was definitely trying to get the and-one and I just got him on the chin. I know he felt it, but it wasn't anything intentional." Wait, did he just say he was one of the best drivers andcreators and and-oneplay-makers in the game???  Never mind, Andre can act too you know.  Anyways, it serves Andre right because he did it to LeBron earlier in that game. And, we KNOW LeBron can act. So what can we expect in Game 6 which will be happening in the next 5-10 minutes?  We know now that the NBA has indicated that any hits to LeBron’s noggin will lead to an automatic suspension.Top Ten Things That Will Happen In Game 6 of the Wizards-Cavs Series 10)  There will be no headbands on the court floor for the first three quarters.  9)  There will be subtle pushes by Z on Andre Blatche to force contact on Lebron when he goes for the shot.  8)  Gibson’s infectious smile will be followed by the loud crack of a white towel.   7)  LeBron will completely miss the rim on at least 3 different shots.   6)  Haywood is going to tellLeBron in the final quarter, “This one is for Songaila…” before giving him a love tap.  5)  Delonte West will explain in his heavy drawl something no one will understand.  4)  There will be no Darius Songaila to get your chicken wing caught up in and manipulate for a fake-me-out old-English back slap.   3)  Gilbert will be in street clothes outside the MCI Center passing out free copies of “God Save the Fan”.  2)  Jay-Z will be there to “Blow the whistle” on Soulja Boy.  And the number one thing that will likely happen in Game 6 of the Wizards-Cavs playoff series?   1)  Someone in the sea of Cavalier fans watching the game on TV will ultimately shout, “DC Sit down!”.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The following are quotes from world finance officials attending spring meetings of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank in Washington. China  |  Crisis in Credit  |  Brazil  |  Italy  |  Japan  |  EconomyGroup of Seven finance ministers and central bankers, meeting ahead of the weekend IMF/World Bank meetings, on Friday said economic activity should begin to recover later this year. However, they said the outlook remained weak and there was a risk that the global economy may still worsen.EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK GOVERNING COUNCIL MEMBER EWALD NOWOTNY"There are some positive signs but the picture is with a high degree of uncertainty. We have mixed signals."What is a special concern for us is the development in Germany where there has been a downward revision in the growth forecast."IMF CHIEF DOMINIQUE STRAUSS-KAHN ON 2010 STIMULUS:"It depends a lot (on) the effectiveness of the stimulus of 2009. It's difficult to define what will be the need for 2010 before having an assessment on the result of what is done in 2009. In turn, it depends on the effort that will be made on the cleansing of the (bank) balance sheets If what we ask...

on the side of the banking sector is done, then the result of the stimulus in 2009 will be very big. And then probably what is already forecast as a stimulus for 2010 may be enough. In other cases, it will need more."STRAUSS-KAHN ON DISAGREEMENTS ON TIMING OF EXIT STRATEGY:"Unfortunately, it is not the Europeans on one side and the Americans on the other. That would be too easy.""It is not so much a different strategy, it is a different appreciation of the urgency. Those who think that things are improving, and finally we have more green lights than red lights, they say it is time to think about exit strategy. Some others, more concerned by the depth of the crisis today, say OK, certainly we need to talk about exit strategy, but first let's talk about what has to be done today."IMF'S JOHN LIPSKY ON IMF ESTIMATES OF BANK LOSSES"Those figures refer to write-downs of assets.

At the same time, banks are making profits on their current incomes. So the whole picture is much more complex to come up with a figure of what the implication is for the results of the actual banks, what they might need for recapitalization etc. What we were estimating was the write-downs from existing assets, which will be compensated, at least in part, by other activities of the bank".IMFC CHAIRMAN YOUSSEF BOUTROS-GHALI"We have serious problems. We are taking very serious measures, but things are beginning to look up. Carefully, cautiously, we can say there is a break in the clouds."ECB'S CHRISTIAN NOYER ON COMPETITIVE DEVALUATIONS:"We must avoid strategies of competitive devaluation.""I think there is a real agreement on that... My own assessment of what will be most the appropriate rate and other decisions in the coming months will depend on the information I will receive."I think that the risks for deflation in the euro zone remain limited, but they exist and they have to be closely monitored."ITALIAN CENTRAL BANK GOVERNOR MARIO DRAGHI ON DEFLATION:"The risk the global economy is still facing is one of a deepening recession. In contrast with past years, there isn't a risk of inflation, but of deflation, not of a worsening of economic imbalances, but of deepening economic contraction and a risk of rising unemployment.

These are short-term risks."Then, there are long-term risks deriving from higher public debt. We will have to tackle these long-term risks with exit strategies."DRAGHI ON RECOVERY AND TRADE:"It is too early to say that the worst is behind the global economy even if there is a long list of macroeconomic indicators that are less bad than before. There are not signs yet of an improvement for international trade flows."DRAGHI ON EXIT STRATEGIES:"We had a discussion during the IMFC breakfast on exit strategies. In particular we talked about what to do with the bank stakes owned by governments... because no-one thinks that governments could own banks forever.
