Bills franchise player Jairus Byrd doesn't appear to be making any progress toward a long-term contract.
All has been quiet on both sides, according to James Walker of ESPN.
Byrd, a free safety who started 16 games, intercepted five passes and forced four fumbles last year, has not signed the one-year, $6.9 million franchise tender offer. He and Broncos left tackle Ryan Clady are the only franchise players who have not signed their tenders.
The Bills and Byrd have until July 15 to agree to a multi-year extension. If he doesn't sign by then, he can only sign a one-year contract.

Hawaii Update!
The website doesn't do it justice. It was so beautiful and there were so many fun things to do and see. We spent a lot of time just wandering around the resort and visiting pool after pool!
I haven't uploaded all the pictures from Adam's point and shoot yet, so you will just have to see my photos for now. This one was my favorite from the 200 or so pictures we took.
The big island is different from the other islands from what I hear. It is more of a relaxation island and is mostly volcanic rock. In fact, when we landed in Kona, it wasn't what I expected "Hawaii" to be at all. Our first day we spent in Kona, going to get a few groceries, because the resort prices for food were unbelievable.
There was a huge lagoon in the middle of the resort that was open to the ocean, so we could swim with sea turtles, eels, and other sea animals. We spent a day and drove to see a volcano, the black sand beach, and other parts of the island. Yes, we rented a convertible with Adam's brother Sean and our sister-in-law Sara. Come on folks ... it is Hawaii ... we had to splurge a little :) Other activities included snorkling, laying out and being a beach bum (Yes, that is the only picture in my new suit you get to see :, and going to a "local" breakfast joint that was TO DIE FOR! All I have to say is Hawaiian sweet bread french toast with cocoanut syrup! Ummmmm!
Last but not least, we attended an INCREDIBLE luau at the resort with Sean and Sara. The food was outstanding and the entertainment of the luau was amazing. A woman working the luau made me an awesome rose out of coconut leaves to put in my hair!
We were sad to leave and enjoyed our great vacation, but missed Bryson SO much. It is good to be home, back into reality ... and starting the "nesting" stage! Only 11 weeks to go if I go full term! Still can't think of a good boy name ... be sure to post any ideas!

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. -- The Tennessee Tech softball team is embarking on what may be its most pivotal weekend of the season. The Ohio Valley Conference Tournament is three weeks away, and the Golden Eagles currently sit fifth in the standings. Saturday and Sunday, the Purple and Gold face the top two teams in the OVC: SIU Edwardsville and Eastern Illinois.
Saturday, the Golden Eagles will play in a doubleheader against SIUE beginning at 1 p.m. The Cougars are currently ranked second in the West Division with a 14-2 OVC record and a conference-best 31-8 overall record.
Rounding out the trip, Tech will play Eastern Illinois on Sunday afternoon. EIU holds a 15-2 conference record, placing the Panthers first in the West. They have only dropped two conference games, one to Eastern Kentucky and one to Southeast Missouri.
The Golden Eagle senior class is seeking its third trip to the OVC Tournament. With the addition of Belmont, the tournament field is made up of eight teams. The top team from the East and West Divisions receive automatic bids, and the next six spots go to the teams with the best conference win-percentage.
With the field wide open, Tech will rely on its veterans to carry the load. Senior Melody Christian currently leads the Golden Eagles with a .368 batting average and a team high 50 hits and 26 runs. Christian opened the season on an 11-game hitting streak and is back on track, currently on a seven-game streak.
Brittney Spalding and Chanelle Spalding have proved to be the voice of the Golden Eagle defense. Anchoring the corners at first and third, the twin sisters have remained steady forces offensively and defensively. Brittney leads the team with 11 extra-base hits, including three home runs. Chanelle holds a team-high .983 fielding percentage, collecting 216 putouts at first base.
Claudia Harke (5-7) has also seen increased time in the circle. The right-hander has thrown 67 innings and two conference shutouts.
Tech's seniors are joined by strong sophomore and junior classes. Sophomores Angi Sakamoto and Hannah Eldridge have given clutch performances at the plate. Sakamoto has connected for two home runs in the past seven conference match-ups while Eldridge has also collected two long balls.
With a balanced line-up, Tech has utilized two players in the catcher and designated player positions. Juniors Kendall Hooper and Chelsea Burgess have turned into Tech's power hitters. Hooper averages a .390 slugging percentage, hitting a two-run homer in her last conference outing against Austin Peay. Burgess appears to be the Purple and Gold's ball magnet. The newcomer is currently on a six-game reached base streak, being hit by a pitch in four of Tech's last five contests.
The Golden Eagle coaching staff is no stranger to the OVC Tournament. Head coach Bonnie Bynum won the tournament championship her last three years as a Golden Eagle player. Assistant coach Terry Acheson has been on the staff for 13 of the programs 17 OVC Tournament appearances since the inaugural tournament in 1994.
All-Time Series
Tech vs.
SIUE: 3-4, The Cougars hold a slight edge over the Golden Eagles in the very brief series. All three of Tech's wins came in last year's three-game series in Cookeville. Tech won the games 4-2, 7-1 and 2-0.
EIU: 31-18, The two teams paired off for the first time in 1995. Tech has the advantage going into the 50th meeting. The Golden Eagles have not taken a series or doubleheader since 2007, but have had great success against the Panthers in the postseason. In 2010 and 2012 the Golden Eagles have defeated EIU to stay alive in the OVC Tournament. Last season, Tech won 3-1.
Quick Hits
- Tech is 19-21 overall this season and 8-6 in the OVC.
- Tech has both OVC Serries it's played in, split two doubleheaders and swept the series against SEMO.
- As a team, Tech is hitting .267, posting 163 runs scored, 136 RBI and a .335 on-base percentage through 40 games. The Golden Eagles average 3.45 earned runs per game.
- The Golden Eagle pitching staff combines for a 2.18 conference ERA allowing 29 earned runs in 93.0 innings pitched in the OVC.
- Five Golden Eagles combine for 18 home runs this season. [Bennett (3), Hooper (3), Sakamoto, (3), B. Spalding (3). Eldridge (2), C. Spalding (2), Gibbs, Taylor].
- Hannah Eldridge and Kendall Hooper have each had six multiple RBI games.
- Senior Melody Christian opened the season on a tear, connecting for at least one hit in each of her first 11 games of the season and currently sits in a seven game streak.
- Cortney Fry extended a streak of her own at ETSU, connecting for at least one hit in four straight games, including two hits in each of her two outings at Eastern Kentucky.
- Two players have scored 20+ runs for the Golden Eagles, including Christian, with a team-high 26 runs and is the team's stolen bases leader.
- Christian is fourth in the OVC with 14 stolen bases on 17 attempts.
- Five Golden Eagles have recorded triples, including newcomer Chelsea Burgess.
- Ketchum was named adidas® Ohio Valley Conference Pitcher of the Week (Feb. 11). Ketchum gave up just two hits in 10 innings of work.
- In a trip to the sunshine state, Tech ended the Under Armour Showcase 3-2, with key wins over Maine, LIU Brooklyn and Providence.
- The Golden Eagles finished the Eagle Round Robin hosted by Georgia Southern in February with a 2-2 record. The weekend was highlighted by a 3-1 victory over Akron as sophomore Taylor Ketchum threw a one-hitter Feb. 10.
- First year head coach Bonnie Bynum picked up her first win at Tennessee Tech after the team downed St. John's, 4-3, on Feb. 9. The Golden Eagles defeated St. John's thanks to a walk-off single by senior Chanelle Spalding, marking the first win against the Red Storm in program history and the first victory of the 2013 season.

Last Updated: 05/26/2019 UTC
See the Latest from Mars!
Curiosity sends back raw images for current and prior Sols based on commands sent by the mission team. The rover uses orbiters to relay back a lot of its data, and maximizes each opportunity when they pass by overhead. Curiosity stores any data not transmitted onboard. The rover will send back this data on later Sols according to the mission team's science and engineering priorities. That means these pages update whenever data comes back. Images are filed in the Sol the rover took the picture, not the Sol on which the rover sent the image back to Earth. Check back frequently for more discoveries from Mars!
Black spaces typically mean partial data has arrived, but Curiosity will fill in the rest of the data as soon as possible. If a Sol is not listed, that means the rover did not acquire any images on that day, or has not yet sent images back for that Sol.
The new (or updated) images are marked in orange.

The hundreds of millions of dollars the NFL is ready to pay former players sounds great, until you stretch it out over 20 years and divide it among thousands of people.
The hundreds of millions of dollars the NFL is ready to pay former players sounds great, until you stretch it out over 20 years and divide it among thousands of people.
Which is why some former players and others think the league is getting off cheap in its tentative settlement with victims of concussion-related brain injuries.
The deal announced Thursday to settle 4,500 or so claims is awaiting approval by a federal judge in Philadelphia.
"$765 million?" asked former Minnesota Viking Brent Boyd, one of the original plaintiffs in the lawsuit. "The breakdown is $1.2 million over 20 years per team. What is that, a third of the average salary? There is no penalty there. It's pocket change."
Former players union president and Pro Bowl center Kevin Mawae complained that the NFL does not have to admit culpability.
"The unfortunate thing is that the general fan, they see $765 million and they think it's a windfall for the players. It's great for ... the guys that would fall in the category of needing immediate help," Mawae said. "But it's $700 million worth of hush money that they will never have to be accountable for."
Others former players didn't seem as concerned about the amount of money, preferring to focus on the timing of the settlement. They said that getting medical coverage now for their peers — or themselves — who suffer from a variety of brain ailments and other health problems is essential.
"Those people who need help now, really need the help the most and need it right now and not five years from now, will get the help," said former fullback Kevin Turner, who suffers from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or Lou Gehrig's disease, and was one of the lead plaintiffs. "That is key."
"It is hard to put a dollar figure on ALS or Parkinson's or dementia and all these things. But if you ask me, I think it is fair."
The lawsuits accused the NFL of concealing the long-term dangers of concussions while glorifying spectacular hits on the field.
The settlement calls for payouts of up to $5 million for players suffering from Alzheimer's disease; up to $4 million for those who died of brain injuries known as chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE; and up to $3 million for players suffering from dementia. The NFL will also pay for medical exams and devote $10 million toward medical research.
"Whether I got a dollar or a billion dollars, that wasn't going to help how I was feeling," said former NFL quarterback Bernie Kosar, who has dealt with a number of health issues now that his playing days are over and said the death of former San Diego star Junior Seau "was a real eye-opener for me."
"Whether they get the money or not, I'm not sure that's going to make them feel better," Kosar said.
The payments will hardly be a burden to the 32 NFL teams. The league generates close to $10 billion a year in revenue, and that is certain to rise when new TV contracts are negotiated in the near future.
"I don't care if we get any money," said former linebacker Jay Brophy, who played for the Miami Hurricanes and later for the Miami Dolphins, and has been diagnosed with brain damage. "I'm not begging for anything. All I want is if there's treatment out there, build us some centers, send us to places to help us out because we don't have insurance. That's all I care about. Too many guys I know are suffering and are going through things."
Andrew Zimbalist, a sports economist at Smith College in Northampton, Mass., estimated the settlement will cost the NFL $45 million a year, or 0.4 percent of current revenue.
"The attorneys were under some pressure to deliver a concrete gain for those players suffering from these diseases," Zimbalist said. If not for the settlement, "it's likely the NFL would litigate for many years before any settlement would come."
He added: "It is a positive settlement for the former players, even though it could have been higher."
Or as Hall of Fame linebacker Harry Carson put it, the NFL "has the resources to sort of stretch things out for years and years and years. The players don't have years and years and years."
"When I look at the number of players who have had neurological issues and have passed on," added Carson, who was not a plaintiff, "I think now of the guys who are just starting to experience neurological issues. They are going to be handled more humanely."
It's also a positive public relations move for the NFL just a week before the season kicks off. The last thing the league wanted was for concussions to remain a front-page story while games were being played.
Commissioner Roger Goodell can now point to the settlement and the league's player-safety initiatives as proof that pro football is dealing forcefully with the issue.
"PR-wise, it allows the league and the players association and medical experts and the U.S. Army and Harvard to show how they are coming up with solutions for the future rather than addressing omissions of the past," said Marc Ganis, president of SportsCorp, a Chicago-based sports consulting firm that does business with the league and several teams.
But some former players wonder if their future will be any brighter as they try to deal with brain disease.
Boyd said he foresees a "bureaucratic nightmare of red tape" in attempts to get approved for coverage and then receive treatment. He said he has been diagnosed with early-onset dementia and has signs of Alzheimer's disease.
"When I testified before Congress, I spoke of how the NFL's plan to cover disabilities was to delay, deny, hope they die," Boyd said.

Satellites will join search for source of Ebola virus
Microscopes are not the only tools available to study disease. A new ESA project employs satellites to predict and help combat epidemic outbreaks, as well as join the hunt for the origin of the deadly Ebola virus.
Ebola haemorrhagic fever kills many people in Central Africa each year. It can cause runaway internal and external bleeding in humans and also apes. What remains unidentified is the jungle-based organism serving as the virus's host.
To assist search efforts, from next year detailed vegetation maps of Congo and Gabon will be created with satellite images as part of a new ESA Data User Element project called Epidemio, developing Earth Observation (EO) services for epidemiologists.
The Gabon-based International Centre for Medical Research (CIRMF) will combine EO data with field results within a geographical information system (GIS). They hope to spot particular environmental characteristics associated with infected sites where either dead animals are found or local people have acquired Ebola antibodies.
"By comparison with known infected sites, remote sensing will help determine other suspect sites," said Ghislain Moussavou of CIRMF. "It is not possible to test the blood of animals throughout the global target area – about 400 sq km of jungle - but it will be helpful to concentrate the efforts of teams collecting animals at these sites." The animals' blood can then be tested for signs of Ebola.
The satellite data will be updated monthly to gain more clues, Moussavou added: "In Gabon and Congo, we have observed an annual periodicity of Ebola outbreaks. This suggests particular ecological conditions characterise the reservoir host habitat."
EO images will also be provided to the World Health Organisation (WHO) Public Health Mapping Programme, for import into WHO's HealthMapper GIS software used by public health officials in more than 70 countries.
"Ultimately our system depends on ground-gathered data, but remote sensing could be a useful addition," said Jean-Pierre Meert of WHO. "Local maps are often 30 years out of date, so we've asked for high-resolution images of cities from Casablanca in Morocco to Vientiane in Laos, to help us better plan medical responses such as locating urban clinics. We also hope to keep better track of nomadic peoples, so we're better placed to provide them with medical help."
Combating malaria – which affects 300 million people worldwide and kills up to 1.5 million people annually – is a particular focus of several different Epidemio users. Acquiring satellite-gathered meteorological data is of great interest. High humidity and rainfall levels often presage malaria outbreaks due to increased mosquito numbers.
"Reliable continent-wide information on surface temperature is a particular boon," said Simon Hay of the University of Oxford Zoology Department. "These temperature data would help in discriminating those rainfall events that occur in a window most favourable for the generation of malaria."

Where is Buddy Holly when you need him?
Instead of one of the greatest Texas singers of all time, Lubbock is now known nationally (and internationally) for the words of a local Republican politician who declared that President Obama's re-election might trigger a civil war and a United Nations invasion of Texas.
There were two basic reactions to the words of Lubbock County Judge Tom Head, which became a YouTube sensation after he uttered them on a local Fox TV affiliate: Did he really say those things? (Yep!) And what should we do about it? (Dunno.)
"It's really up to Judge (Tom) Head to do the right thing and resign and stop embarrassing Lubbock County," Lubbock County Democratic chair Kenny Ketner told CNN. "I wish we were getting worldwide attention for something better than a crazy county judge. But what are you going to do?"
If you're the Texas Democratic Party, you definitely know what to do. State Democratic chair Gilberto Hinojosa issued a blistering statement questioning, among other things, the county judge's "mental competency."
"Judge Head's statements on the United Nations invasion raise serious questions about his mental competency to hold elected office," Hinojosa declared. "[Senate nominee] Ted Cruz is clearly in good company. Republican crazies have now taken over the Lubbock County courthouse."
Hinojosa said Head's talk is "not only ridiculous, it's dangerous. It's crystal clear that Judge Head should resign."
In case you haven't been near a computer, Head became a household name from Dallas to Dubai when he predicted a United Nations invasion of the Lone Star State if Barack Obama wins re-election this fall.
"I'm thinking the worst," he told Fox34. "Civil unrest, civil disobedience, civil war, maybe. And we're not just talking a few riots here and demonstrations. We're talking Lexington, Concord, take up arms and get rid of the guy."
In response to Head's warnings, Lubbock lawyer Rod Hobson adorned the outside of his Lubbock office with U.N. flags to express his horror (or sense of humor).
""Well you can either laugh or you can cry. When I saw the story I thought, once again, Lubbock is going to be the laughingstock of the entire nation," Hobson told Fox34. "It's like the light's on, but no one is home. … I'd just like to think he's off his meds."
Meanwhile, Texas Democrats (suffering perhaps from Todd Akin overload) shifted their sights to Texas' own Republican embarrassment.
"There are a lot of unanswered questions here," Texas Democratic chair Hinojosa continued. "Does Judge Head expect the United Nations to come in riding a couple of combines? Does Lubbock also need an Air Force? A Navy? Will the revenues from this tax increase be put into a dedicated account to fight the U.N. invasion? Will the money be returned to taxpayers if the U.N. army doesn't make it into Lubbock County? What will happen if the Sweetwater militia defeats the vicious blue-beanie peace-keepers before they reach Lubbock?"
Head, meanwhile, tried to clarify his views at a Wednesday meeting of his commissioners court.
"My remarks yesterday, worst case scenario in my opinion, and how do you prepare for it," he said, according to Fox34. "Do I think those are going to happen, probably not."
Missed the video that started this "war"? Here it is:
Hinojosa couldn't resist a low blow aimed at fair-and-balanced Fox News.
"I guess this is what happens when you get all your information from Fox News," the Democratic chief concluded. "This would be truly funny if it were a skit on SNL. The fact that these were serious utterances by a supposedly responsible elected official make the entire episode horribly sad, but unfortunately, not even slightly unusual in today's Republican Party."

Federal Requirement 4.8
Federal Requirement 4.8
4.8.1 demonstrates that the student who registers in a distance or correspondence education course or program is the same student who participates in and completes the course or program and receives the credit by verifying the identity of a student who participates in class or coursework by using, at the option of the institution, methods such as (a) a secure login and pass code, (b) proctored examinations, or (c) new or other technologies and practices that are effective in verifying student identification.
_X_ Compliance ___ Non-Compliance
SecurityMcNeese State University provides a login name and password for every enrolled student to access online services. These secure services include, but are not limited to, email (Zimbra), learning management systems (Moodle & BlackBoard), and institutional student information system (Sungard Banner).
The University provides unified access to its services via an online campus portal. Portal access is encrypted using either Transport Layer Security (TLS) or Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) with certificates from GlobalSign. SSL/TLS certificates:
- Ensure the identity of the server being used
- Provide assurance to students that University Web sites are trusted
Student logins are encrypted with a minimum of 128-bit encryption.
Proctored ExaminationsMcNeese State University provides proctoring for any student who takes an exam at an off-campus location (1). The identity of the student taking the exam is verified by the proctor. If the exam is not administered through Moodle or BlackBoard, the proctor will collect test material and submit it to the instructor.
Students may also elect to use ProctorU. This is a fee-based online service for which a Webcam is required. In these instances, ProctorU verifies student identity.
Student Identity VerificationMcNeese State University uses several measures to ensure the security of a student's login information.
Students must pass several challenges in order to change account information. These challenges include:
- Human Interactive Proof (HIP) process where students must select specific answers to a posed question
- Verification of personal information known only to the student
- Response to questions previously setup by the student
To date, this layered approach to verifying student identity has proven to be effective.
4.8.2 has a written procedure for protecting the privacy of students enrolled in distance and correspondence education courses or programs.
_X_ Compliance ___ Non-Compliance
McNeese State University abides by all guidelines set forth by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). Distance and correspondence courses create records of student activity and, therefore, are subject to all FERPA regulations.
Information regarding FERPA is available on the University Web site (2, 3, 4). Additional, course-based privacy considerations and requirements are outlined in the Online Course Policy (1).
4.8.3 has a written procedure distributed at the time of registration or enrollment that notifies students of any projected additional student charges associated with verification of student identity.
_X_ Compliance ___ Non-Compliance
No mandatory fees are assessed with verification of student identity. Should students elect to utilize Web-based proctored services (see 4.8.1), they may be required to incur fees; however, the University does not require the use of such services.

Patriots quarterback Tom Brady looked as good as ever in Friday night's preseason game against the Buccaneers. So Patriots coach Bill Belichick was probably in a great mood after the game, gushing about how wonderful his team is, right?
Not quite.
"Our team is still in a growing stage," Belichick said after the game. "We have a lot of work to do. We're nowhere close to where we need to be for the opener or for the 16-game regular season schedule. We have a lot of work to do. We're going to stay at it. It's not over by any means. We're not anywhere close to where we need to be. Training camp is not over. Let me make that perfectly clear."
OK, that's perfectly clear. The Patriots have looked pretty good through two preseason games, but that's a long, long way from the point where Belichick would be willing to celebrate.
Belichick is about five and a half months from the point where he would be willing to celebrate.

Signs and Symptoms of Heart Disease and Professional In Home Care
February is drawing to a close and spring will soon be right around the corner. It's almost time for spring cleaning and making room in our homes for the things we love and removing items we no longer care for. February is a great month to take special note of our hearts as it is American Heart Month. It's time to remove the bad habits that are hurting our hearts and start to make room for heart healthy diets and activities.
Heart disease is the main cause of death for men and women in the United States. Heart disease is the most deadly and kills more than all forms of cancer combined. Common signs of a heart attack include tightening chest pain and the pain is usually very intense. We all know when this symptom happens to call 911 immediately. One might not realize there are many other signs of heart disease that should not be ignored; especially for people older than 65.
Some lesser known signs and symptoms of heart disease include anxiety and chest discomfort including pressure, squeezing, and fullness in the general breastbone area. Women have shown signs of heart disease with a burning sensation in their chest. Other signs and symptoms of heart disease include nausea or lack of appetite, fatigue, dizziness, and a persistent cough. A rapid pulse can be a signal of impending heart failure if accompanied by weakness, dizziness or shortness of breath.
Some heart attack symptoms that are common in men slightly differ when experienced by a woman. Women are more likely to experience symptoms while resting or even while they are asleep. Mental stress is also a common trigger in women. Mental stress and depression can affect a woman's heart more than a man's. Depression makes it difficult to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Smoking also has a greater effect on a woman's heart health when compared to a man's heart.
There are some effective ways to reduce the risk for heart disease. One very important and quick head start to a healthier heart is to put out the last cigarette. The minute a person quits smoking, their risk for heart disease is dramatically reduced. Try to exercise regularly and squeeze in thirty minutes of activity a day, or at least a couple times a week. Choose more wholesome foods and aim for more vegetables over fatty meats and salty foods. Whenever possible, take care of your heart in ways that reduce stress. Grab a favorite book and take an hour or so to yourself. It's important to recharge emotionally as well as physically caring for our hearts.

BOSTON, Mass. - The University of Massachusetts Boston Department of Athletics has announced that former UMass Boston three-sport athlete and current women's soccer assistant coach Katherine Wall '08 will be inducted into the Athletics Hall of Fame as a member of the 2013 class.
The greatest three sport athlete in the history of UMass Boston, Wall will be one of seven new members to be honored this October in the university's annual ceremony.
As a member of the women's soccer, women's ice hockey, and softball programs, Wall remains as one of the most influential female athletes in the history of UMass Boston athletics. For the women's soccer team she was the first-ever three time Little East All-Conference selection, earning second team honors in 2006 before being named a first team selection in 2007 and 2008. On the softball diamond she was only the second player in the history to be named a three-time all-conference selection earning a pair of second team honors (2005 and 2006) before being named a first team honoree in 2007.
On the ice she still owns a share of the NCAA Division III record for most short-handed goals in a single game with two. She also sits second all-time in career short-handed goals with four and is tied for fifth in career games played with 102.
While with the soccer team, she finished her career ranked 13th all-time in most appearances having stepped onto the pitch in 68 of a possible 73 games played. She also sits tied for 11th with two game-winning goals and is 12th in career points by a defenseman with 24.

She is fourth in triples with 10, highest slugging percentage with .576 and stolen bases with 30. Wall also stands second all-time in stolen bases in a single season with 19 which she recorded in 2006. Her 34 runs scored in 2006 are third most in a season.
In 2012, Wall returned to her alma mater and served as an assistant coach with the women's soccer program, which won it's first-ever Little East Conference Regular Season and Tournament championships.

Popular Mechanics for HDTV Lovers
We've been surprised to have so many requests by readers for a good buyer's guide to HDTVs—it's easily eclipsed requests for purchasing legitimate Kristy McNichol autographed glossies on eBay. (Hint: Go for the Empty Nest cast photos that were accidentally left unsigned by David Leisure for big savings.)
I (Joel) had been a bit hesitant to dive into a primer on HDTV. Not because it's a bad idea, but because I had just written a big piece for Popular Mechanics about the very same thing, in the issue that is currently on the stands.
Good on PopMech, then, for putting a copy of the article online for Consumerist readers. They didn't have to do that, but it's saved me from having to be something besides totally slovenly. Be sure to tell them you appreciated it if you, you know, did.
One minor caveat: The article was published for the Christmas buying season. There's a big chart of suggested televisions in the article and while I easily stand by our choices—we often picked slightly older TVs that had reviewed well rather than newer, shinier models—there will also be dozens of HDTVs announced this week at CES (the Consumer Electronics Show). Model lines may be updated with new features while retailing for the same price; prices will fall on existing models, etc. Take the time to educate yourself about HDTVs this week, then start shopping next.

purchased the Ramp and Wedge and was surprised by how much strain they took off of difficult sex positions, I didn't even know how hard I was working. I highly recommend these for partners with back pain, both for sex and even as ergonomic furniture. They also make great bed-top furniture in my cramped San Francisco living quarters, not joke!
For most of us, sex happens in a bed, or similar flat surface. Occasionally a pillow or two is called in for assistance, but the sex is good enough we never really question doing it on a mattress.
Enter the Ramp. If you hadn't realized, your body isn't straight, even at it's straightest. That's why we love rolling hills, sharp curves, and that wonderful hip to waist ratio. The Ramp gives us that same slope in our sex, albeit a bit more angular. Still, you will find (after many hours of ecstatic experimentation) that lovemaking on the Ramp suddenly becomes easier, less taxing, and less likely to pull a muscle, even in adventurous poses. Even better is the fact that your lover is closer to you as you are joined.
Definitely one of the must-haves in any couples sex arsenal.

SOCORRO, N.M., June 27, 2002 -- The smoky haze from the Arizona wildfires that has permeated the skies above Socorro and most of New Mexico for the past four days is obscuring the state's vistas, but is not elevating the level of air pollutants to the point where it would exceed federal standards, according to New Mexico Tech researchers who regularly monitor air quality at the university.
New Mexico Tech chemistry professor Carl J. Popp and his research associates have been monitoring airborne particulates, ozone, and oxides of nitrogen, as well as aldehydes, such as formaldehyde, and acids, such as acetic acid, as part of the research they conduct in collaboration with the ongoing Western States Visibility Assessment Program.
"So far, the worst period was early Monday morning, when the 'M' Mountain, just west of campus, was obscured," Popp relates. "We observed high particulate counts that morning, as well as high levels of oxides of nitrogen, both of which can be directly attributed to combustion from the wildfires.
"However, the limits did not come close to exceeding the National Ambient Air Quality Standards," he says.
"Particulates are still elevated above normal," Popp points out. "In the middle of the week, the values were about twice
what they normally are for this time of year, but they're not any worse than what we see in New Mexico when we have the high winds in spring, blowing all that dust around."
Nevertheless, Popp cautions that the levels he and his group have been monitoring the past few days are probably still high enough to aggravate respiratory problems in some people. "Even so, it's still a lot better than the average day in L.A.," he says.
New Mexico Tech student Alicia Frazier, Tech grad student Octavio Valenzuela, and Suilou Huang, a research associate at Tech's Geophysical Research Center, are assisting Popp in the ongoing air-quality study.

She sits in her chair, straight backed but comfortable for her. The old wooden arm feels smooth and familiar as she runs her right hand over it, preparing herself to pick up the letter on the table next to her. In her left hand, she holds a neatly ironed handkerchief she has taken from the top drawer in her bureau. The letter that she's kept, the letter she has read and reread so many times, and yet she still needs to prepare herself even after all these years. She knows that it will make her smile and cry and smile again when she reads it, even more than the first time she read it. How could she have know then how much it would come to mean to her as time passed? She doesn't really need to read it at all because she could recite it word for word if asked. She can close her eyes and see the handwriting on the page, the handwriting so easily recognized as her Jim's.
Reaching for it now, ready, she opens the page folded in half and begins to read…
Jan 21, 1915
Dearest Ethel
I will begin by answering your questions about the kidlets who have been awful good. Loraine's eye is well and she has been out all the time for the past two days and has the roses back in her cheeks. She was so tired tonight that when she was being undressed she said "my, I will be glad when I am in bed". Burnham is OK. But I will be glad of my regular bed-fellow. Tues. night I awoke and he had both hands in my hair pulling for all he was worth, and although I thought him asleep he spoke of it the next morning.
She smiles at the thought of the "kidlets". Loraine was four and how she hated to go to bed most nights back then. And Burnham was 6, and still he loved to crawl up into bed with is Daddy. Elinor was a bright little eight year old, in charge of everything. And the baby West was just two. How she had hated to leave him for that time, how she hated leaving any of them. But, her mother had needed her at her side. She gently shook her head thinking of how simple things were then. Her children just like steps, every other year, as planned. She held her hand flat against her stomach, as she had done when she waited for them to be born, remembering that at the time, she didn't even know little Gordon would be coming in just a year. And again she smiled at the thought of them all.
Elinor is well as usual and said this noon that if you didn't come home to-day she would have the "bumps."They know the three days are up that I told them you would be gone and they don't see why you don't come home. The baby is fine, follows Lottie around like a little dog and she says does not make her a bit of trouble. I do not think that he has cried once since you left. Lottie has taught him to call her Lottie and about five this AM he woke up and I heard him call "Bot Lottie" but during the night he always calls "Mamma Bot".
I am about as usual, with a cold added and to-night brought home a bottle of cough syrup.
She always feels that catch when she reads that line. That moment of panic that is fleeting, but makes her feel, even now, that she should be doing something to fix it. And as quickly as it comes, the feeling is gone and she allows herself to breathe again and the panic is replaced with the sadness she knew would come, too. But she has a compelling need to read on, and she does.
I have written for two seed catalogues, one which Warren Wells recommended so next week we will pick out our seeds and order. Lovetts 1915 cat. of fruits and flowers came today. We rece'd in the mail today an invitation and ticket to an art exhibit in Springfield Sat. To-night is installation of officers at K. of P. and Buckley has been trying to get me to go as he says it is just one year ago since I was last there and that I ought to go once a year but I of course would not go alone.
I have a piece of very bad news for you, the price of the moving pictures at Blanchards is now 20¢ for the last three days of the week. Won't that grieve you? I am so glad mother came through her operation as well as she did and sincerely hope there will be no set-back. I was called to the long distance at 10 AM today and was almost afraid to answer, when it turned out to be Lawyer Reoutard inquiring about one of his clients I could have cursed him roundly for the scare he gave me.
When you see mother again give her my love and tell her I think of her constantly and to hurry up and get well and come home.
Miss Bartlett has called Lottie up twice and is much excited at your long stay, wants you to call up as soon as you get home. Guess she misses her meals.
How Jim loved to tell her news every day when he came home from work. It was always such a special time of day for her and the children when he walked through that door. And they had so many friends and places to go-all those business dinners and church functions and club meetings. But going to the Blanchard was their favorite thing to do. Although they'd been married just over 9 years then, she still felt like she had felt when they first courted and then when they were newlyweds while Jim was still in school in
. When he'd come home, and they'd go to a show it was just their special time together. How she loved him. She glanced over to the college yearbook that she had left open on the footstool and studied his picture and read the caption. Maine
"Jim forsook home, friends and civilization in a wild desire for quiet study and education. His manner of getting the latter has been original and unique. The only bright spots in his wilderness existence have been the short glimpses of that other life caught during vacations."
He looked so wistful and pensive. How she misses him.
"Jim forsook home, friends and civilization in a wild desire for quiet study and education. His manner of getting the latter has been original and unique. The only bright spots in his wilderness existence have been the short glimpses of that other life caught during vacations."
It always touched her to think that he loved their life together so much that it was even obvious to outsiders. When she read that caption it always made her proud. And that was always how she remembered him, young and handsome and ready for life, and so smart. The smartest man she'd ever known. How lucky she had been when he first came into her life. And she shifted her eyes to the bookshelf where that picture of him at Wells Beach sat among his books.
He looked so wistful and pensive. How she misses him.
I have a good notion not to tell you how lone-some I am, but I am and want my "rib" back and if you stay longer than Monday I shall come down and kidnap you. So, you see I am not only lonesome but selfish and a little jealous and when I wake in the morning and reach out for you dear, only to find you gone, then I am really lone-some. How much a part of me you have grown to be you may not realize. But I want you back now, at once, please come.
I miss my good-bye kiss in the morning my welcoming kiss at night and those last long kisses before we go to sleep, come home to me dear. I want you.
Dear I am probably selfish but come as soon as you can. It will be so good to have you back.
I must close now as it is ten o'clock. Give my love to grandma and the rest and with a heart full for you, dear, I am ever.
Your Jim.
P.S. If you need any more money telephone as soon as you get there. Telephone any-way Sat. and let me know how mother is and when you will be home .
She runs her fingertips over his signature, presses the paper to her lips, breathes in the scent, and folds the pages, placing them in her lap. With eyes closed, she leans her head back against the chair and she thinks about what might have been, even now, she thinks of what might have been.
Ethel Marsh Tiffany married James Lonsdale Paige in 1905 when he was still a college student. Jim was born in Southbridge, MA, like Ethel, but his parents moved Jim and his brothers Carl and George to Missouri and then on to Kansas when he was only 2.
He lived there until he was 15 when Jim returned to
to complete high school. He lived as a ward in an elderly aunt's home. He was somewhat of a mechanical genius and at an early age, right out of high school, he was hired by American Optical Company, a major employer in Southbridge where Ethel's father had worked since he himself was a teenager. Jim alternated "periods of work for the American Optical Company with years of study at the Southbridge, the place University of Maine and the ." When he returned with a degree in Mechanical Engineering, he quickly became the supervisor of a large department that made the lenses at American Optical, earning a very good living and enjoying a highly respected place in the society of the little town. University of Pennsylvania
In April of 1916, a year and a few months after he wrote this letter, Jim and Ethel welcomed Gordon Hastings Paige into their family, the youngest of the five.
In February of 1917, Ethel lost her father, Harlan Tiffany, with whom she was very close. She was an only child after losing her older brother when she was two. She had been the apple of her father's eye and it was a sad day for her. But more difficult days were to come for Ethel in 1917.
Jim began to feel ill some time late in 1916 or early 1917. Although he continued to work for a while, when he began to fail so badly that he could not work, Ethel sent for his parents, who came from Kansas to be by his side. His brother George was a physician living in
Arizona. It's likely George came to his bedside, too, perhaps before his parents came. And at some point, when it was evident that he was not winning the battle, his mother took an envelope and quickly wrote in pencil the message for a telegram to Jim's brother Carl back home in Iola . And although his coworkers and friends and family all had expected that he would win that battle, he did not. In his mid 30s, Jim Paige died "at 3:55 AM, Friday July 27 at his home on Chapin Street in Southbridge, leaving a wife and five children. Kansas
|Carl E Paige
Iola, Kansas
"Yours received. Jim is calling for you. Come at once.
Ethel kept the envelope upon which Jim's mother Clara West Paige had quickly written out the message to be wired. A curious thing to keep, until you turn it over and see the other side of it. In addition to a short grocery list, it contains a curl of littlest child Gordon's hair which was "cut by mother when he was 10 months."
As if she had not endured enough that one year, little Gordon grew sick and died just a couple of months after his father, not yet two years old, in December of 1917.

Ethel Tiffany Paige lived to be 90 years old. She never remarried.
Ethel Marsh Tiffany Paige and her great great granddaughter Corina1969
She was my great grandmother.
Elinor, in the letter, was my grandmother.
|My grandmother, Elinor, me and my mother.
Great Grandma Paige always seemed stern and cool to me and I was a bit afraid to approach her when I was little. Her home in Stow, MA was neat and clean but we weren't allowed to touch anything, except one game she would get out for us to play with during our infrequent visits. It was a fishing game. Wooden dowels, painted yellow, each with a red string tied to one end and little red horseshoe shaped magnet tied to the string were the fishing poles. The fish were brightly colored metal cut outs of fish. There was a black cardboard folding octagonal enclosure that stood on the floor and we placed the fish inside it. Each fish had a number on it and that was how you accumulated points. It was sort of fun, but it seldom took up the whole visit. We had to sit still and wait for the grown ups to finish talking and that was very hard. We didn't look forward to those visits, really. And the fishing game is all I remember now.
But I have learned so much about her just from this one letter, the only one we have from Jim. Other details about her life I have discovered through research have shown me what a vibrant young woman, she was. She was someone I would have loved to know when she was younger, and I was older. She had a superlative soprano voice which she shared with her community often and was in great demand as a soloist. She was involved in community affairs and a mother of five who ran a happy home with an involved husband. She was a loving daughter and a devoted wife who was most certainly in love with her husband as much as he was in love with her. And although she lived through so much tragedy at a very young age, I think that love must have been what sustained her all those years after. Had I only asked her about it when I had the chance. Truly a love story. Truly.
I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
