I've managed a shop on Etsy for the past 5 months selling electronic devices and synthesizers. I recently resigned from my job to pursue electronics design and fabrication.
Two days ago, my shop was unexpectedly CLOSED and I received an email stating that there was suspicion that I hadn't constructed my devices by hand. At first I was a bit flattered and followed their instructions to confirm that I had in fact built them myself. I supplied the following photographs…
- Shots of my workshop (soldering iron, electronic component cabinets, work bench)
- Photos of the device (outside, inside, and the laser etched logo on the back with my etsy shop html link)
- Photo of the raw materials used to construct the device (walnut and basswood)
However, they also requested I supply photos of the build process. I didn't take photos during construction so I didn't have any. Then I realized this was a more disconcerting request when I noticed NOWHERE in Etsy's Terms of Use or Do's and Dont's page does it say anything like…
"Sellers are expected to document, through the use of photographs, their construction process for all items and be able to supply those photos to Etsy staff upon request or risk having their shops permanently closed."
I appealed to the representative to no avail. Was I suppose to take it apart and build it again? No, I would just have to document the build process for my next product I posted and my store would remain closed until I did so.
Disregarding the fact that having my shop up gains me at least one follower a day, it just so happens I don't want Etsy to know exactly how I go about constructing my electronics and especially the enclosures. I realized this was an intellectual property issue and that Etsy was making an unfair and undocumented demand of me.
I'm upset by the suddenness. That at any point, you can be immediately removed from a community of builders and musicians for no other reason than a hunch.

Gabriel Clarke was certainly not the catalyst for renewed White House and State House efforts on gun control. But the measure of success for new laws is how many fewer Clarkes end up in hospitals and morgues. As the 13-year-old continues to recover in a hospital after being shot in the stomach while walking to choir practice in Roxbury two weeks ago, local ministers who have dealt with violence for years wonder if the nation really understands the task at hand.
"It strikes me as interesting that the president is reacting because 20 kids were killed in Connecticut," said Jeffrey Brown, executive director of Boston's Ten Point Coalition. "But Chicago has had how many kids killed?" Indeed, in the 2011-12 school year, 24 Chicago public schools students were killed and 319 were wounded.

As one might expect, Ralph Krueger's armed forces played the big minutes last night in the first game of the 12-13 season. If we made a list of logical TOI for each player and line, I don't think we'd find much out of place.
- Taylor Hall 17:59
- Jordan Eberle 17:52
- Ryan Nugent-Hopkins 16:43
- Sam Gagner 12:41
- Ales Hemsky 12:36
- Nail Yakupov 12:23
- Shawn Horcoff 9:35
- Ryan Smyth 9:34
- Eric Belanger 8:25
- Lennart Petrell 7:11
- Ben Eager 6:18
- Teemu Hartikainen 6:10
That's fairly textbook. You could argue (and I did) that the 2line needed to play more but Krueger's stars played the bulk of the available even strength minutes, and the guy who pushes the river played the most minutes. There's no JF Jacques here, no Anton Lander either. Maybe its the short training camp and the fact there was no chance to crown a darling, but that's a fine use of the forward lineup.
- Ryan Nugent-Hopkins 4:29
- Ales Hemsky 4:13
- Nail Yakupov 3:57
- Shawn Horcoff 3:56
- Jordan Eberle 3:37
- Ryan Smyth 3:27
- Taylor Hall 3:21
- Sam Gagner 3:05
All 8 forwards played significant PP minutes (it was one of those games, we shouldn't expect this kind of activity every night) and Krueger once again used his best player in the discipline as much as possible. I thought the Nuge was lagging a little, telegraphing passes and lacking his usual PP genius, but the fact remains that the coach gave him every opportunity to make it happen. Hemskyand Yakupov–two more terrific options–came in second and third. I was surprised to see Ryan Smyth get so much PP time, but then again Hartikainen didn't get any so those minutes may move around during the season.
- Shawn Horcoff 5:36
- Ryan Smyth 5:36
- Eric Belanger 3:40
- Lennart Petrell 3:40
- Jordan Eberle 0:44
- Ryan Nugent-Hopkins 0:44
The two veterans played an enormous amount of time on the PK–I don't think we'll see 5.5 minutes of PK from two guys in one game for awhile–and then two 4liners get a huge slice of PK minutes and that's a good idea if they can do it. Belanger looked like a different player out there last night, lets hope it continues. About the only thing that doesn't make a lot of sense on the entire forward list is the Nuge-Eberle PK time. If it was 6 seconds we could chalk it up to getting off the ice, but 44 seconds is half a penalty kill so maybe he sees something in them we don't see.
- Ladislav Smid 16:49
- Justin Schultz 16:35
- Jeff Petry16:19
- Ryan Whitney 16:10
- Nick Schultz 15:26
- Corey Potter 13:33
Fairly even among the top 5 with Potter lagging, I was impressed with Schultz the younger in his debut. He's certainly a rookie, but very mobile and a guy who is in the right place more often than you'd expect of someone who has no NHL experience. Schultz the elder should get some credit for that, he was a rock for the club at even strength last night. Steve Smith mentioned in the comments section that Jeff Petry reminded him of Tom Gilbert at the same age and that's a really good comp. One of the highlights of the game came on a sequence where Petry crushed a VAN winger and then Smid ended the play with a very physical goalmouth clearance of the enemy.
- Justin Schultz 3:47
- Ryan Whitney 3:46
- Jeff Petry 0:11
- Ladislav Smid 0:01
If there are 8 forwards with big PP minutes, it makes sense the defensemen aren't going to get a lot of time in the discipline. I think Petry could certainly step into that role (although you'll see in a moment he was busy elsewhere) and Potter is someone who played a lot on the PP a year ago (2:28 per game) but he didn't make the grade on this night.
- Jeff Petry 6:12
- Ladislav Smid 4:02
- Corey Potter 4:02
- Nick Schultz 3:19
- Ryan Whitney 1:55
- Justin Schultz 0:30
Petry led the defense in TOI and this is why. The PK was very effective on the night and Petry's efforts were a big part of it. Smid and Potter also played a lot on the PK and Schultz was the 4th. Whitney is the only defenseman to get big minutes in all three disciplines, but that might be a reflection of Petry's usage here and Schultz's inexperience. Basically I'm saying that at some point Petry or Schultz the younger may be taking minutes from Whitney, as both have "complete" defenseman's skills.
Lots of positives on the night–solid in the FO circle (even the Nuge) and lots of shots from the people you want to see shooting (Eberle 5, Gagner, Horcoff 4, Hall 3) and Devan Dubnyk's stat line (.931SP, including saving all 8 pp shots).

Other Forms of Funding
Beyond sales and shorter-term borrowing, banks offer several other forms of financing, at various cost levels:
property finance;
asset finance, including leasing, HP, etc.;
stock finance.
payroll finance;
invoice discounting (not the same as factoring, but similar).
Unfortunately, as the credit crunch deepened, the availability of finance fell and the price increased. In particular, property finance became scarcer, with much lower loan-to-value (LTV) rates, as banks found they were yet again overcommitted to commercial property finance less than 20 years after the last property crash.
In summary, therefore, funding has always been available for well-run, profitable companies of any size generating regular cash flows and with assets to act as collateral. With little interbank lending taking place, resulting in shrinking wholesale funding and a liquidity squeeze, it has been no surprise that banks in general became more cautious about the scale and security of their lending.
Transaction-Based Corporate Finance
As in the wider markets, M&A activity has slowed dramatically, due both to a shortage of funds and to the greater overall perceived risk of corporates in a slowdown. In the case of both M&As and management buyouts/buy-ins, the transaction is primarily based on the track record of sales and profit generation and the capability of the business being acquired.
The more doubtful the recent and projected profit record, the more likely it is that the majority, if not all, of the funding will need to be based on assets and/or quasi-assets.
Tax, Legal, and Professional Advice
Some may think that corporate finance is an industry invented by professionals to generate fat fees. However, there are many pitfalls in trying to do it yourself. The finance director or owner is generally unlikely to get the best terms possible, even if they run a competitive auction.
Professional advisers, such as the accountancy firms, will usually have better and more banking and financing contacts. They should also be able to exert more leverage on the banks, as they have their whole clientele as the lever, rather than the business and assets of a single company or business.
Many people also resent paying what they regard as high or exorbitant fees, especially to lawyers. While there may be the odd less scrupulous professional adviser, in the main you will be paying for massive accumulated experience of the best and most efficient ways to source, transact, and document the finance, as well as avoiding myriad pitfalls.
While sale and purchase agreements and shareholder agreements may have a standard form at their core, each company and set of directors is different. Finally, there will be tax implications for every corporate finance transaction, whether for the organization or the individuals concerned. If you have the right advisers, there is no harm in taking a degree of responsibility on yourselves, but your advisers can save you money and help you avoid penal costs and consequences.
Corporate finance can mean different things to different people; even the banks divide it into at least three categories: commercial finance, corporate finance, and structured finance. In truth, however, it is about just one thing—how the business is financed. The key is the whole balance sheet approach, looking not only at the optimum mix of short- and longer-term finance, but also at the overall picture: which liability funds which asset, at an optimum balance of cost and risk.
At its best in practice, corporate finance can be a sophisticated science. This does not make it any less applicable to SMEs. While the scale and nature of transactions may often be smaller or simpler, there is no reason why similar principles and practices shouldn't be applied. Equally, for firms that have the necessary breadth of skills, the fees do not need to be exorbitant either.

Bag checks, metal detectors, pat downs, surveillance cameras — this is the standard American reaction to events like Boston's bombing attack, and conservative New York Times columnist Ross Douthat calls it "Security Theater." I agree with Douthat (my colleague Phil Klein disagrees with some of Douthat's conclusions), and I used that term to describe airport security.
"Security theater" means very visible and intrusive security measures that may not be able to stop a bomb or a weapon, but certainly give off the impression that nothing can slip through. It's not an inherently derogatory term: Maybe security theater fools a potential terrorist. Maybe, as Klein writes, "the general focus on threats among the public at large arguably makes them more alert in general and thus helps prevent potential attacks."
But Massachusetts State Police Superintendent Col. Tim Alben this morning defended security theater as something that makes people just feel better. Here are his relevant comments:
So I'm speaking to the public you are going to see an enhanced presence from the Boston police, from the state police, from the national guard and from our law enforcement partners through the metropolitan Boston area over the next days and probably longer. That's not for any particular reason other than to provide some comfort to the public who are using transportation centers or going about their business.
So we are engaged with the MBTA police in the "T" you will see more troopers, you'll see national guardsmen there. You'll MBTA police like you do every day, but that presence will be significantly enhanced. We're doing that for the comfort of the public. We're looking for cooperation from the public. It's not to inconvenience anyone, and we don't think that it will be.
That's an interesting justification for intrusions on people's free movement and the expenditure of public funds. Also, is it clear that armed guards with large rifles make people feel more comfortable?

The 2014 Corvette Stingray is here.
|If you're going catch the 2014 C7 Corvette in action, it's somehow much more satisfying when it happens at a high-speed test track versus, say, catching a hungry engineer parked at fast food drive-thru. Our spy photographers have snapped images on the next-generation Corvette roaring its way around GM's Proving Grounds in Michigan.
Apparently the sound of the engine was very impressive as it blasted past. Like other test mules, the camouflage is pretty intensive on this prototype. Yet the overall shape is coming into focus, along with details regarding the design of the front and rear fasciae.
The V-8 might be smaller than before, though you can bet that power will take a sizeable jump from the current base Corvette's 430-bhp engine.
At the back, there appears to be less rear overhang. That fits into previous suggestions that the next Vette will be shorter overall, but feature a longer wheelbase for better stability and increased cabin room. While those strange scalloped openings along the back of this test car hint at some kind of wild air intakes (or extractors), wed hedge our bets that theyre simply there to vent the cammo and make sure it doesnt blow off especially during high speed testing.

The Clinton Foundation has announced a partnership with the city of Los Angeles to retrofit buildings with LED lighting over the next five years. In all, 140,000 LEDs will be installed throughout the www.velikibrat.us city.
The foundation says that the project will reduce CO2 emissions by 40,500 tons a year and http://www.bsz-wurzen.de/viagra-rx will save $48 million over seven years. After seven years, the loan for the installation of the lights will have to be repaid, but the city will continue to save $10 million a year in energy costs. No word yet on which lucky vendor was chosen to http://www.marthawashingtoninn.com/order-levitra-levitra provide the LED lights.
The city will still have to secure financing for this large project, which may be tricky right now, but the savings in energy costs will easily make up for the money invested in the installation. It's great to see the i use it levitra online india Clinton Foundation back making positive headlines now that Bill and Hillary are done being politically vetted. This project has the potential to show other cities the benefits of buying viagra in canada investing in retrofitting and with an organization like the Clinton Foundation involved, it's bound to be successful.

I've purchased a few LED bulbs recently. Some of them suck. I found one that was a great fit for outdoor lighting, but that's mostly because it isn't temperature-sensitive and I live in a climate that provides a wide variety of temperatures -- but I wouldn't be enthusiastic about using the light indoors.

LEDs aren't as efficient as fluorescent or metal halide, and they really don't even last THAT much longer (30,000 hours versus 50,000 hours).
They are 5x the cost right now in streetlighting applications......they make no sense except for techy news headlines......

When the car came out people complained that humans couldn't survive going faster than a horse.
When planes came - if man was meant to fly we would be born with wings.
When TV was invented - what could it be used for?
Now LED is coming of age - we have more of the same.
True, the current technologies don't allow us to make the ultimate LED bulb. But we are on the way to making great progress. How can any good change come through if it is not supported by those without blinkers.
Some time ago Philips brought up all of the best LED technologies in the world. They saw what could happen with it & spent well over a billion investing in LED.
I love it & have 18 LED lights in the house already.
They are 3watts & have replaced 25-40 watt (GU10) downlights. Rooms are just as bright.

The Merging of Exchange Powerhouses
Mike is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
In a December 20, 2012 announcement, commodities exchange powerhouse IntercontinentalExchange (NYSE: ICE) announced its formal intention to purchase New York Stock Exchange operator NYSE EuroNext (NYSE: NYX) for approximately $8.2 billion. The complicated cash-and-stock deal offer provides current NYSE shareholders with three distinct options. Each option values NYSE EuroNext at about $33.12 per share. Although such a high-profile merger will certainly attract regulatory scrutiny, it appears that this deal has a good chance of closing by the end of the fourth quarter of 2013.
About IntercontinentalExchange and NYSE EuroNext
Atlanta-based IntercontinentalExchange is one of the world's largest commodities exchanges by volume. Unlike that of its CME Group (NASDAQ: CME) rival, ICE's focus lies in the energy sector. The company operates a commodities exchange and clearinghouse as well as an over-the-counter division that facilitates the sale of low-liquidity commodities. It also provides comprehensive risk-management and market-data services for traders and companies that wish to assess the potential profitability of complex energy-related investments. Finally, ICE operates a futures exchange that has proven wildly successful with the advent of global high-speed trading. In 2011, the company earned about $549 million on $1.37 billion in gross revenues.
New York-based NYSE EuroNext is known for its signature Wall Street property. As the operator of the most prestigious stock exchange in the United States, the company enjoys tremendous visibility. NYSE EuroNext also operates the American Stock Exchange in New York and several properties in Europe, including the Amsterdam, Paris, Brussels and Lisbon stock exchanges. Its additional properties include a European derivatives clearinghouse and transaction-settlement service that processes real-time trades across its network. Like ICE, NYSE EuroNext conducts a significant amount of market research and serves as one of North America's largest sources of market data. In 2011, the company earned $431 million on $3.6 billion in gross revenues.
How the Deal Is Structured
The ICE-NYSE EuroNext merger's structure is somewhat novel. Under the terms of the deal, NYSE EuroNext shareholders will be given three options. First, they may opt to exchange their NYSE positions for cash consideration of $33.12 per share. Second, they may elect to receive 2.581 ICE shares for every 10 NYSE EuroNext shares that they own. Alternatively, they may choose to receive a "combination package" that includes cash consideration in the amount of $11.27 as well as 1.703 ICE shares for every 10 NYSE EuroNext shares that they own.
These three options are circumscribed by the limitations that ICE's board of directors has placed on its commitment to the deal. Specifically, the company is unwilling to commit more than $2.7 billion in cash and 42.5 million shares to the deal. Collectively, these limits place a cap of $8.2 billion on the deal's current value. Should ICE's value fall considerably from its current levels, NYSE shareholders who opt to accept the company's shares may see smaller returns from the merger.
As it currently stands, this deal values NYSE EuroNext at approximately $33.12 per share. Relative to the stock's pre-announcement closing price of $24.05, this represents a premium of approximately 37.7 percent. Relative to the stock's recent closing price of $33.65, this represents a discount of about 1.6 percent. However, the deal has been rendered somewhat more attractive by ICE's recent price run-up. Relative to its December 28 closing low of $123.66, its current closing price of $134.82 represents a premium of about 9 percent.
Complications and Competition
Relative to NYSE EuroNext's pre-announcement valuation, this deal offers a solid return for the company's investors. In fact, it may be intentionally designed to price ICE competitors like the CME Group out of the market for NYSE EuroNext. Given their collective bias towards commodities, ICE and CME are natural rivals. Although CME has been attending to some merger-related issues of its own in recent months, it remains a potential bidding rival. However, its high debt ratio and lack of cash reserves put the organization in a position of weakness. It would require at least $6 billion in additional leverage to finance a competitive bid. As such, the emergence of a rival merger offer appears unlikely.
Long-Term Prospects and Outlook
Due to natural fluctuations in the value of ICE's stock, the ultimate value of this deal will not be established until the closing date approaches. Should the company's stock continue to appreciate in value, the "share exchange" option could become more attractive to current NYSE investors.
It should be noted that a deal of this magnitude and visibility necessarily involves regulatory scrutiny. Although the global trading market remains quite diversified and competitive, there is a possibility that this deal could be derailed at the last minute by legal or regulatory issues.
Assuming that the deal takes place in its current form, it will represent a fortuitous marriage between two powerful companies. NYSE will provide ICE with significant leverage in the all-important North American market and provide the already-storied NYSE brand with additional visibility. Over the long term, it may also result in still-theoretical synergies. These include the potential consolidation of trading operations between the New York Stock Exchange and American Stock Exchange. In fact, the possibility of closing both floors and moving to an all-digital exchange framework is not out of the question.
Investors would do well to watch for signs that such plans are approaching fruition. In the meantime, this deal may represent a solid value for enterprising market-timers. Those who believe that ICE's stock has considerable room to appreciate would do well to purchase shares in either company at these levels.

No matter how busy you both get, make time each day to talk to each other about what's on your mind. Whether you share problems and brainstorm solutions, or just share the funny things that happened during your day, you'll both feel more connected.
-- By Sharon O'Brien
Spend time alone
Once a relationship is established, the pull of spending time alone may start to lessen. Don't let it. It's important for couples to have time alone to talk, laugh and relax together. Plan one night a week for just the two of you—whether you go out on the town or plan a cozy evening at home. If you have kids, schedule a babysitter.
Keep up your appearance
Sure, your partner will find you more attractive if you're well-groomed and wearing something flattering. But since so much of sexual enjoyment is in the mind, keeping up your appearance will also help you feel sexy. And that will help put both of you in the mood for sex.
Dance together
Studies show that dancing is a great way to get in shape, and it's a lot more fun than a treadmill. Dancing also keeps you young, agile and sexy. So whether you're at home or in a club, grab your partner and dance.
Make your partner feel important
A common complaint among longtime couples is that everyone else—friends, family, kids, coworkers—gets priority over your partner. Sure, it's important to have a full life, but that doesn't negate the importance of connection to help couples keep the spark alive. Make sure your partner knows that he or she is first on your list.
Share non-sexual touching
Remember when you first met and you wanted to touch all the time? Physical touch—a hug, holding hands, an arm around her shoulder—convey love. And that helps couples feel more connected.
Hug for at least 30 seconds
No need for a stopwatch, but the next time you hug your partner make it a good, long embrace. Researchers have found that healthy hugs can increase oxytocin, a hormone that helps with bonding and feelings of attachment.
Know what turns you on
Although some people think masturbation is best for people without partners, it's actually a good way to discover how you like to be touched and what turns you on. Share what you learn with each other.
Make time for sexual play
Set aside one weekend a month—or one night a week—to have fun with your partner in bed. Be silly, try role-playing, experiment a little—the idea is to experience fun and joy together.
Try toys
If your sex life has become routine, perhaps sex toys will add the variety and spice you're looking for. Make toy shopping a mutually pleasurable event, and only indulge in what you both agree on. This is meant to be fun and pleasing for both partners.

- Warrington Town vs Darlington (3pm)

Sunderland 1 Tottenham 2
It's all over here and Sunderland, despite a late surge for an equaliser, have lost again. There's still a five-point gap to safety and it's looking horrible for the Black Cats now.
Report to follow ...
Sunderland 1 Tottenham 2 (O'Shea OG 50)
After a lovely run to the by-line by Dembele, his cross was turned behind Mannone by O'Shea.
That was the fifth own goal scored by Sunderland this season. When it rains ....
Sunderland 1 Tottenham 1 (Paulinho 43)
Kyle Walker's free-kick dropped to the back post where Chadli was on hand to direct back across goal. Brazilian midfielder Paulinho then worked his way ahead of Bardsley to hit the equaliser.
It's all to do again now for Sunderland. Having got their noses in front, it could be difficult to regain the advantage.
It's half-time now.
Sunderland 1 (Johnson 37) Tottenham 0
After a series of Tottenham chances at the other end, Sunderland have scored first.
Ondrej Celustka's cross from the right should have been easily gathered by Hugo Lloris. Instead the goalkeeper misjudged his leap and he palmed the cross in to the path of Adam Johnson.
The Sunderland winger then powered the opener high inside the far corner to give the Black Cats the lead.
Sunderland 0 Tottenham 0
A couple of half chances at both ends here. Fletcher should have done better than an effort which rolled wide after a Bardsley pass.
Both Holtby and Paulinho have gone close from long range at the other end.
And as I type, Colback has missed the target from 12 yards after a lovely lay-off from Altidore.
Sunderland v Tottenham
If there is a day when the Black Cats needed to start winning, this is it.
After wins for Norwich, Stoke and Crystal Palace, Sunderland are not only five shy of safety, they are also five short of third from bottom.
Sunderland need to give December a lift and Poyet's decision to turn to Altidore and Fletcher shows that he accepts that things need to change soon.
Birmingham 2 Middlesbrough 2
Another late goal breaks Boro hearts.
Sunderland v Tottenham
After Newcastle's earlier success was followed up by a draw from Middlesbrough at Birmingham, it's over to Sunderland to deliver now.
And Gus Poyet has surprised by including two strikers against Tottenham. While Spurs has named just Jermain Defoe in attack, Poyet has teamed Jozy Altidore and Steven Fletcher up front in the hope of sealing a crucial three points.
SUNDERLAND (4-1-3-2): Mannone; Celustka, Brown, Bardsley; Ki; Johnson, Colback, Larsson; Fletcher, Altidore. Subs: Pickford (gk), Dossena, Gardner, Diakite, Giaccherini, Borini, Cattermole.
TOTTENHAM (4-4-2): Lloris; Walker, Dawson, Capoue, Naughton; Lennon, Paulinho, Dembele, Holtby; Chadli, Defoe. Subs: Friedel (gk), Soldado, Lamela, Townsend, Sigurdsson, Sandro, Fryers.
Birmingham 2 Middlesbrough 2 (Bartley, 90+3)
Sub Bartley heads home from Burke's corner to draw his side level
Warrington Town 1 Darlington 4
Superb performance and result. Darlington trounce league leaders Warrington, who were unbeaten in 17 league games
Warrington 1 Darlington 4
Ciaran Kilheeney pulls one back.
Warrington 0 Darlington 4
Don't think Darlington goalkeeper Mark Bell has had a serious save to make. Defence has been very solid. In injury time now.
Warrington 0 Darlington 4
Warrington had not lost in 17 league games before today. Darlington have smashed their record to pieces. Impressive stuff today. 87min gone.
Birmingham 1 Middlesbrough 2 (Ayala, 80)
Boro back in front. Ayala finished from close range after knock-down by Jutkiewicz.
Warrington 0 Darlington 4
Game over. Another header by Purewal after great work by Thompson and Fisher.
RT @StephClarkEcho: #Boro have been poor in second half. Complete opposite to the first. Mind you, Chris Burke has been brilliant since com…— @Danielkidd95 07 December 2013
Warrington 0 Darlington 3
Second substitution for Darlington, Dale Hopson on for Jonny Davis. Darlington looking comfortable, surely there'll be some fight from Warrington?
Warrington 0 Darlington 3
No hat-trick for David Dowson today, he's been replaced by Nathan Fisher for the last 25 minutes.
Birmingham 1 Middlesbrough 1 (Caddis, 59)
The hosts equalise from the spot after Gibson fouled Burke in the box. Afraid to say Boro have turned off since HT.
Warrington 0 Darlington 3
Header by Amar Purewal on 60 mins after a cracking cross by Terry Galbraith.
HT: 2-0 to Darlington. http://t.co/XLP9Cu7V6U— @CStoddartEcho 07 December 2013
Warrington 0 Darlington 2
David Dowson with DFC's goals after 20 and 26 minutes.
Birmingham 0 Middlesbrough 1 (Carayol, 22)
Accomplished first half display from Boro. They've played some great stuff since going ahead. Front four of Carayol, Adomah, Emnes and Kamara finding plenty of space. Solid at the back, too. Boos from the home crowd at the whistle.
Birmingham 0 Middlesbrough 1 (Carayol, 22)
Accomplished first half display from Boro. They've played some great stuff since going ahead. Front four of Carayol, Adomah, Emnes and Kamara finding plenty of space. Solid at the back, too. Boos from the home crowd at the whistle.
0-1: Chance for #Boro. Adomah shoots wide after quick break involving Gibson, Emnes and Leadbitter.— @StephClarkEcho 07 December 2013
0-1 #Boro playing with confidence since going ahead. Adomah has just gone close after a good run forward from Williams.— @StephClarkEcho 07 December 2013
Birmingham 0 Middlesbrough 1 (Carayol, 22)
Brilliant move from Boro sees Muzzy Carayol put the visitors ahead. Great work from Emnes to turn Caddis inside out before finding the winger in the area to turn and stab the ball home. Best move of the game so far.
Birmingham 0 Middlesbrough 0
Not much to report from opening ten minutes. Neither side has really created anything clear-cut yet. Ayala has started well at the back for Boro.
RT @CStoddartEcho: Here we go then, @theyellows v #Darlington. http://t.co/cuUBgEq6GS— @darlo1946 07 December 2013
Warrington Town v Darlington
Warrington Town: Cook, Davies, Thompson, Meakin, McCarten, Robinson, Ruane, Mannix, Kilheeney, Evans, Gahgan. Subs: Dogan, Bowen, Newby, McKenna, Guest
Darlington: Bell; Pilatos, White, Hunter, Galbraith; Robinson; Scott, Davis; Thompson; Purewal, Dowson. Subs: Jameson (gk), Weldon, Edwards, Hopson, Fisher
Man United 0 Newcastle 1
History made here at Old Trafford as Newcastle beat Manchester United on their own ground for the first time since 1972.
More than four decades of hurt, eradicated in a swipe of Yohan Cabaye's boot.
Brilliant stuff from Newcastle, with Williamson, Debuchy, Tiote and Cabaye exceptional throughout.
Warrington Town v Darlington
Dale Hopson is on the bench for Darlington, as are Nathan Fisher, Curtis Edwards, Paul Weldon and Peter Jameson.
Birmingham v Middlesbrough
Aitor Karanka had made four changes to his starting line-up for this afternoon's game against Birmingham at St Andrew's.
In comes Daniel Ayala, Grant Leadbitter, Marvin Emnes and Mustapha Carayol with George Friend, Richie Smallwood, Jacob Butterfield and the suspended Curtis Main dropping out.
Dean Whitehead retains his place after scoring in Wednesday night's defeat at Derby.
Lukas Jutkiewicz returns to the bench after injury, while Seb Hines also returns to the squad.
Middlesbrough (4-4-1-1): Given; Williams, Ayala, Woodgate, Gibson; Carayol, Leadbitter, Whitehead, Adomah; Emnes, Kamara
Subs: Dimi, Richardson, Hines, Smallwood, Butterfield, Ledesma, Jutkiewicz.
Birmingham: Randolph; Caddis, Burn, Robinson, Hancox; Dudka, Reilly; Novak, Lingard, Mclean; Zigic
Subs: Doyle, Bartley, Lee, Shinnie, Burke, Gray, Brown
Warrington Town v Darlington
Darlington have reverted to the team that won last Saturday for today's game at league leaders at Warrington Town.
Having made eight changes for the midweek League Cup defeat to Ossett Town, the XI which overcame Mossley 2-1 seven days ago are selected.
Warrington, who are managed by Shaun Reid, Peter's brother, are unbeaten in 17 league games though fifth-placed Quakers did beat them 2-0 on the opening day of the season.
Man United 0 Newcastle 1
Twelve minutes to go, and Man United gearing up for one of their traditional late surges.
Newcastle holding out well so far though, with Debuchy performing superbly.
Shola is on for Cabaye, and Cisse is about to come on too.
Man United 0 Newcastle 1
Man United just had the ball in the net - but van Persie's header was rightly disallowed for offside.
Jones flicked on Januzaj's free-kick, and van Persie had strayed offside before he headed home.
Credit to assistant referee Sian Massey for getting that one right.
Man United 0 Newcastle 1 (Cabaye 61)
Well, well, well - Newcastle lead at Old Trafford.
Sissoko beat Evra down the right-hand side and pulled the ball back to Cabaye. The Frenchman's side-footed effort deflected off Vidic to beat De Gea, and 3,000-or-so Geordies went beserk.
Half an hour to hold on now.....
Man United 0 Newcastle 0
Big escape for Newcastle as Man United finally begin to generate some momentum.
Evra's header from a corner hit the post, and then the ball struck Anita on the arm on the way back out.
It would have been a harsh penalty, but had a spot-kick been awarded, Anita would almost certainly have been sent off.
Meanwhile, Ben Arfa is on for Gouffran.
Man United 0 Newcastle 0
Goalless at half-time.
Debuchy came close with a shot and a header in stoppage time, and if Newcastle can keep things tight at the back in the second half, Man United look to be there for the taking.
Man United 0 Newcastle 0
Dreadful bit of cheating from Hernandez, who dived over Coloccini's leg in an attempt to win a penalty.
No spot-kick - but no booking either. That's where retrospective punishment should be used.
Man United 0 Newcastle 0
Two closely-matched sides here, although Newcastle have been indebted to Williamson for a couple of superb defensive interventions.
Since returning to the side a month or so ago, Williamson has made a real difference, and this has arguably been his best half-hour so far.
Williamson for England !!!!! #nufc— @Kev1719 07 December 2013
Pardews team talk = take them out anyway you can ! No way will NUFC get to 90 with 11 on pitch #MUFC— @obtusecircle 07 December 2013
Man United 0 Newcastle 0
Newcastle will be happy with this start. There haven't been many chances at either end, but the visitors are knocking the ball around nicely and closing Man United's midfielders down quickly whenever they're in possession.
Remy had a brief sight of goal, but his header from Sissoko's cross went well wide.
Man United 0 Newcastle 0
Cheik Tiote setting the tone for Newcastle here with three midfield interceptions already.
Important block by Coloccini though to thwart Cleverley at the other end after a dangerous Nani break.
Man United 0 Newcastle 0
Committed stuff from Newcastle so far, with Cabaye already in the book for two crunching fouls.
They're clearly wanting to make their presence felt, with Tiote also throwing himself into tackles.
Man United 0 Newcastle 0
Under way at Old Trafford with Newcastle playing in their bright yellow kit, with blue shorts.
They're clearly celebrating yesterday's World Cup draw by dresswing like Brazil. Let's hope they don't play like Costa Rica......
Time for #nufc v #mufc havnt won there in my lifetime so I'm not feeling confident but this is probably our best chance #alleztoon— @robcarter35 07 December 2013

Manchester United vs Newcastle United
Alan Pardew has made one change to his Newcastle side for today's away game at Manchester United.
Vurnon Anita comes back into the starting line-up, with Shola Ameobi dropping out of the side that lost 3-0 at Swansea on Wednesday.
Anita's return means a change of formation, with Newcastle lining up in a 4-3-3 formation instead of the 4-4-2 they have used for their last few games.
There is a significant piece of team news from the Manchester United camp, with Robin van Persie returning from a four-game injury lay-off.
MAN UTD (4-4-2): De Gea; Rafael, Vidic, Evans, Evra; Nani, Jones, Cleverley, Januzaj; Hernandez, van Persie.
Subs: Lindegaard (gk), Ferdinand, Anderson, Young, Welbeck, Valencia, Zaha.
NEWCASTLE (4-3-3): Krul; Debuchy, Williamson, Coloccini, Santon; Cabaye, Tiote, Anita; Sissoko, Remy, Gouffran.
Subs: Elliot (gk), Yanga-Mbiwa, Obertan, Gutierrez, Ben Arfa, Shola Ameobi, Cisse.
Welcome to another action-packed afternoon of live football. There are some cracking games involving the region's sides, but we start at Old Trafford where Newcastle United are hoping to pile more misery on the reigning champions.

"Damn! We're in a tight spot ..."
That's what Rick Grimes could have said at the conclusion of the season finale of "The Walking Dead" Sunday night, locked in a train car surrounded by malevolent characters, but he instead said: "They're screwing with the wrong people."
It seemed a little out of place to me, because I prefer the "actions speak louder than words" Rick to the "action movie hero catch line" Rick, but it definitely did not spoil what was one of the strongest episodes of the series.
We finally arrived at Terminus, the farm/prison group (minus Beth, Carol, Tyreese and Judith) reunited under duress, we were treated to a fleeting but sweet reunion with saintly Hershel, a Rick Moranis look-alike died and no one really cared, and ... can we talk about the neck-biting, ear-licking scene?
That whole situation was a little much to process.
We've become accustomed to rotting, reanimated corpses; murder; squirrels, rabbits and snakes being butchered; but I'm having a hard time even trying to come up with a way of describing what happened — or far more disturbing, what might have happened, if the situation went unchecked — between Joe and the band of marauders and Rick-Carl-Michonne.
Rough Joe and his vengeful crew finally catch up to their man, Rick, whose crime was murdering one of their white-trash friends.
Apparently their code calls for them to exact murderous revenge, and ravage adolescent boys.
The scene was either a direct or inferred reference to "Deliverance," which is the last time I can remember feeling so uncomfortable while watching something on television. What was great about "Deliverance" was that right when things were getting really bad for Ned "Purty Mouth" Beatty, this arrow of justice comes out of nowhere and pierces the savage's chest, and you're like "LET'S GO!!!"
The same thing happened on "The Walking Dead." When Rick bites Joe's neck, setting the fight sequence into action, you feel like YOU'RE being rescued.
When that commercial break hit, after Rick tenderized that fat pedophile's torso, the group that I was watching with all took a collective deep breath and was just like "WHAAAAAAATTTTTTT????"
It was lots of fun, and isn't that what it's all about?
It was definitely intentional — by the way — that the neck-feast maneuver made Rick look like a zombie. It's a fine line between zombie and non-zombie.
"Hunger and a lack of blood corpuscles take all the manhood from a man," H.G. Wells, "The Island of Dr. Moreau."
This whole episode, because it was a season finale, I was mentally steeling myself for Rick, or Carl, or some other essential character, to fall.
They didn't, and in some ways, I'm a little worried that the series is veering back to a more traditional set of rules.
We now pretty much know that, against all odds, "our team" is going to escape the train car, mostly intact, and either overcome or escape Terminus. Maybe a few of them will perish as collateral damage — Bob, Abraham, Rosita come to mind — but the "money" characters will live on.
One thing that makes "The Walking Dead" different is that Rick Grimes could just up and die at any moment. But now, I'm not so sure that he will. It's cool that he can eat necks like they're McDonald's Clubhouse sandwiches and kill everyone, but I think I'd rather see him crying in a corner because it would make the show scarier.
Is Rick Grimes Rambo? Is this "The A-Team"?

There's a crowd at the Dakota Dome in Vermillion, South Dakota every January.
A crowd of farmers at the Dakota Farm Show.
"If you slow down or speed up it monitors that 20 times a second and keeps you on rate," said Doak McDaniel, a Territory Manager for HARDI, showing off a new self propelled sprayer unit.
The Dakota Farm Show is a chance for everyone in the Ag industry to see what's out there and check out the latest technology.
Whether it's a squeeze chute for cattle, or a big piece of machinery.
"The slick door at the back, it's so fast, easy to operate," said Dave Dahlberg of Real Tuff, Inc., showcasing a new cattle squeeze chute.
Nearly all of what you might see at the show represents the latest advances in farming.
Some of them are seemingly simple ideas to keep you more safe, like a circular safety pen for cattle.
"The cattle's on the inside and you're on the outside," said Dahlberg. "It's totally safe."
Some of the latest technology means you can take the creature comforts into the field when you go to work.
"When you buy a brand new pickup truck they say it has all these comfort levels that you enjoy in the cab when you're operating it or driving down the road, and we offer the same thing in self-propelled spraying equipment today," said McDaniel.
A dome full of gadgets, equipment and ideas, helping make life a little easier for Siouxland farmers.
If you know of any farmers you think would be great here on "Proud to be a Hometown Farmer," please email Jake at: firstname.lastname@example.com

SPOKANE, Wash. – For the second game in a row, the Whitworth University women's basketball team turned the ball over just six times, this time on the way to an 83-47 win over Willamette University in Northwest Conference action at Whitworth Fieldhouse on Friday evening.
Whitworth improved to 13-5 on the season, with a 7-2 NWC record. Willamette falls to 3-15 overall, with a 1-8 record in the NWC.
Willamette got the first lead of the game as Katie Kalugin hit a jumper to put the Bearcats up, but Whitworth responded quickly with eight unanswered points from seniors Kendra Lahue and Kayla Johnson and sophomore KC McConnell. Whitworth extended to a double digit lead with 13:32 left in the first half and a jumper from senior Jamie Lyons put the Pirates up by 35-14 with 4:50 left in the half. At the break, Whitworth led 42-22.
Willamette looked to cut the lead in the opening minutes of the second half, as Alexa Beeson and Katie Kalugin each had baskets that pulled the Bearcats within 18 points, but the Pirates responded to push the lead back up over 20 points and quieted Willamette. With 4:27 left to play, sophomore Lexie Zappone found junior Katara Belton-Sharp cutting to the basket, and Belton-Sharp laid in the easy bucket to put the Pirates up 75-42. Freshman McKenzie Harsin scored her third bucket of the season in the final 30 seconds, sealing Whitworth's 83-47 win.
Whitworth shot 47.9 percent (35-73) for the game, and shot 48.6 percent (17-35) in the second half. The Pirates had four blocks and three steals in the game. Four of Whitworth's six turnovers game in the first half.
Four Pirates scored in double figures, led by Kayla Johnson's 13 points. Katara Belton-Sharp added 11 points, and Kendra Lahue and junior Jessica Kramer each chipped in 10 points. KC McConnell led the Pirates with 10 rebounds, and Jamie Lyons pulled down a season-high eight boards. Lexie Zappone dished out six assists.
Willamette was led by Katie Kalugin, who had 13 points and seven rebounds. Alexa Beeson added 12 points, while pulling down seven rebounds. Jojo DeLong dished out a team-high three assists, while Kalugin and Daena Mau each had two assists.
Whitworth hosts Pacific (Ore.) at 4:00 p.m. in Whitworth Fieldhouse on Saturday.

The views in these blogs are those held by the individual blogger and do not necessarily reflect the views of Everton Football Club.
About the authorView articles
When I walked into the Brian Labone lounge at Goodison Park back in January 2011, I wasn't sure what the next few hours would entail and I was pretty nervous.
This was to be my first Fans' Forum meeting and, while I was excited, I'm a pretty shy person and the thought of speaking in front of strangers gives me butterflies!
But I wanted to get over my nerves and help give my opinion and put forward ideas to help make our great club even better.
I didn't know much about the Forum before I joined or what normally happens during meetings. Unfortunately we don't get any say on transfers or tactics!
The Forum has been in its current guise since January 2011 and there are currently 10 fans on the board, plus our independent chairman Tony Bott. We are a very varied group with pretty much every fan genre covered - Season Ticket holders, FOREVERTON members, hospitality members, disabled supporters, parents, grandparents, supporters clubs and so on.
While there may be only 10 people at each meeting, we actually represent hundreds and hundreds of fans we go to the match with and interact with on a regular basis.
But we think that's still not enough.
'Why not have different members of the Forum write a regular update to share more details on our recent activities?,' we thought. The result is this blog.
I thought the first blog should highlight some of the great things we have achieved and been a part of over the last two years. These include:
- Promoting the idea of £5 kids tickets for cup games, which was highly successful and then led to the also very successful £95 kids Season Ticket offer.
- Suggesting the ticket 'print at home' feature which is now being rolled out to supporters.
- As a result of feedback from fans, we met with PGMOL general manager and former referee Mike Riley and his colleagues to discuss his work, past and present, and current issues concerning refereeing.
- Promoting the idea of rewarding our most loyal fans, which has led to events for supporters attending every game last season and the recent Fan Conference for those who have held Season Tickets for over 10 years.
- Recommending the change in evening kick-offs from 8pm to 7.45pm to encourage more families who may be put off by later finishing times.
- Presenting David Moyes with a memento to mark his 10 years in charge.
- Holding a meeting with chairman Bill Kenwright to discuss some of the key issues currently facing the Club - as well as sharing some of the stories we've collected over the years.
- Playing a large and significant part in the ongoing improvement in overall communication between fans and the Club.
Our latest task has been to choose four new members who will join the Forum this month and replace four of us, including myself, whose tenure has now come to an end.
We received a large number of applications from all over the world and it was really tough to narrow these down. We used a scoring system to judge each one and, from this, the four members were chosen. I'm looking forward to meeting our new members and I'm sure they will do a great job continuing the work we have started.
For those unsuccessful candidates or those who didn't apply, the message is: we still want your input and participation.
The forum is an open shop, so if you have any comments or issues you want to raise, either through the monthly meetings or maybe through a future blog, you can contact us here.
You can also view the minutes from past meetings online here .
Looking back over the past two years, it has been a great experience and I've gained a great insight into how the Club is run.
I think we've built a great partnership with the Club, which will only make it better in the long run.
There are some pretty exciting and interesting things happening off the pitch, not just on it - and the future is not as gloomy as some would like to make out.
I've also made some new friends who I'll stay in touch with, and even had Steven Pienaar hold the door open for me at Finch Farm. Thanks, Steven!
One thing I haven't fixed though... I still get butterflies when I speak!

Braindump Brings Ideas to Computer
KDE developer Cyrille Berger now provides his Braindump whiteboard program in its first public release. The GPL software is based on KOffice technology.
Braindump should help users put their ideas into digital format. This includes numerous whiteboards that the user can organize and categorize, write and draw on, and include graphics in. Concurrent with the release of Braindump 0.8.0, Berger issued a video showing the program in action.

Creative Action ProgramSep 23| Special Event
Los Angeles is a city often described as having no center. Its art community has turned that "disadvantage" into an advantage and given itself a license for adventure. Organizations, galleries, and artists find decentralization to be an exciting option and they establish their addresses in unexpected neighborhoods and zones in the city and even beyond, in other cities and states. What are the challenges and advantages of this programmatic and conceptual strategy? What are the risks, to organization and audience alike? Is this necessary, and if so, is it sustainable?

with combined parry chance and increased miss chance (also due to buffs from moonkin (-2%) and hunter (-5%). And not to forget Kings, 35Agi Pot and 20 agi food it is actually achievable.
More interesting though is also the aggro generation which is defunct for warriors or palladins if they even try to be near that "no-hit-for-u-boss"-cap.
Only druids because of their massive agi could achieve somewhat respectable aggro with rage on crit as a true tanking class.
Also it shows some design decisions from blizzard to only include very few bosses that stun or knockdown tanks.
I think they failed to create a balance between agility and other stats for rogues, druids and hunters. It is just to good a stat all around for them and just plain bad for warriors, which is a shame i think.

Dietary Supplements to Consider for Older Cats
October 12, 2012 / (1) comments
The studies looked at 90 cats between the ages of 7 and 17 that were fed a nutritionally complete diet for the rest of their lives. Individuals in group one received no supplements. Cats in group two received additional vitamin E and beta-carotene (a type of vitamin A), and cats in group three received vitamin E, beta-carotene, omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, and a prebiotic (a non-digestible ingredient that supports the growth of "good" gastrointestinal microorganisms, in this case chicory root).
After 7.5 years, the researchers evaluated a lot of data and found the following:
- Cats in group three lived almost a year longer than those in group one.
- Cats in group three maintained their body weight and had better lean body masses than did cats in group one.
- Other laboratory parameters associated with health (e.g., hematocrit and blood glucose levels) were better in group three cats than those in group one.
- Findings for group two fell in between groups one and three and were generally not statistically different enough to allow conclusions to be made.
These papers provide solid evidence that support the inclusion of extra vitamin E, beta-carotene, omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, and a prebiotic in the diets of middle aged to older cats. Realistically, I wonder how many cats would stand for the addition of all these supplements to their current diets. I think a more practical solution is to look for a high-quality senior cat food that has been formulated with this information in mind after these findings were published in 2006. Items to look for on a cat food's ingredient list include vitamin E, vitamin A, carrots (a natural source of beta-carotene), flax seed or fish oil (to supply omega 3 fatty acids), animal-based sources of protein like eggs and chicken for omega 6 fatty acids, and a prebiotic like chicory root or beet pulp. Using the MyBowl tool is a simple way to compare diets if you think making a change could benefit your cat.

Ask my dad, I'm GAY!
Done trashing Margarito's career; let's reevaluate Cotto's
So many people were writing Cotto off after only TWO losses and one close fight with Clottey. I even heard people saying Cotto looked awful against Foreman and Mayorga. Why? Because he lost one or two rounds to each of those guys before TKOing them?
Going back before his career seemed to have turned for the worse...
He fought Mosley close in 2007 but did beat him. I haven't heard too many people claim Mosley deserved the win. 115-113 for Cotto makes it close yet pretty clear to a lot of people and seemed fair.
After he was bludgeoned with plaster for 11 rounds...
He fought a life and death battle with Clottey, but Clottey, like Margarito, has a great chin and gets stronger as the fight goes on. And Cotto just isn't going to out box someone the way Floyd or Pacquiao can. A lot of people came off this fight saying Cotto was shot. I came off it impressed that he pulled out a tough, tough fight given what he had gone through only a year before.
Now it's obvious the first loss to Margarito was BS and shouldn't count. And what if in the next 5-10 years, it's proven that Pacquiao was on the juice? Not saying he would have beaten Pacquiao, but, had the losses been removed, COTTO WOULD BE UNDEFEATED with wins over some great names.
He's not an all-time great top 100 fighter or anything, but do you really think Cotto is that far behind some of the better fighters of this decade, the likes of Barrera, Morales, Marquez, Mosley, etc? Because I really don't.

He is a very good fighter, but he is somewhat of a front runner although not everyone was able to take advantage when the going got tough. So while a poor trait at least he has shown the ability to pull it together if allowed.
What always bothers me about Cotto is when he fights going backwards, because he does it to avoid damage but ends up taking more than if he just fought aggressively. A short stocky guy should press inside and get inside the range where the other guy can be effective and work from there, moving away just doesn't suit him because he never has the range advantage to take advantage of moving away.
Cotto has real talent and boxing skills but to me he lacks that attention to detail that really allows a guy to move beyond being very good, but his career has been solid he avenged one of his loses and his other defeat is to one of the top couple guys of the era, don't know how you can really knock that to much.

Cotto was boxing Clottey pretty good until (in my opinion) that intenational headbutt came..Cotto couldn't see jack **** trough that eye.

The Hill
Sen. Charles Grassley proposed an amendment to expand the E-Verify system, but it failed in committee. (File photo)
A bid to expand the online database system used to verify employment eligibility for U.S. employers as part of comprehensive immigration reform was voted down in a Senate committee on May 16.
Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa), ranking member of the Judiciary committee, proposed an amendment to scale up the e-Verify system to require the participation of all U.S. employers within 18 months of passage of an immigration bill. The measure was defeated by a vote of 13-5, with three Republican senators joining the 10 Democrats on the panel to defeat the measure.
E-Verify is an online system that checks information from employee I-9 forms against Social Security and Department of Homeland Security Data to determine employee eligibility to work in the U.S. According to Citizenship and Immigration Services, the system is used by 409,000 employers, and adds about 1,300 new employers weekly. Currently, employers are not required to use the system.
"We all want E-Verify to work as quickly as possible. The problem is, it would be virtually impossible to have it work in 18 months," said Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y), one of the senators crafting the immigration reform legislation, as quoted in the Hill.

Han Solo Is Trying To Sell His Apartment. Still.
So a pal of mine went to a CFDA party last night at 101 Central Park West (14th floor) - and realized she was in Harrison Ford's apartment. He's loaning it out for parties as a way to engender interest because he's apparently trying to sell it (next step: a NYT spread ala Wendi Murdoch, when she was trying to dump her Soho Pad or a feature in Vanity Fair ala Cornelia Guest, who still cant unload Templeton).
Harrison wants $20 million - any takers? (It's a steal - in April he wanted $25 mill).

Reaching records in research - Around the Arch
December 2009 Issue
UGA research funding reached a record high last year with researchers receiving more than $173 million from external sources. The previous peak, $150.6 million, was reached in fiscal year 2005. UGA ranks among the top 100 public and private research universities for federal research and development expenditures, placing 94th in the most recent National Science Foundation rankings, based on figures from fiscal year 2007. Sponsored research funding stems from contracts and grants awarded to the university primarily by federal, state or local government agencies; state, national or international private foundations; or individual donors from Georgia and elsewhere. Economics experts at UGA estimate that every research dollar brought in by UGA researchers generates almost $2 that is spent in Georgia on services, equipment and support personnel. Of the $173 million received by UGA in fiscal year 2009, $100.6 million, or 60 percent, was from federal agencies, including the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, and the U.S. Departments of Agriculture, …

What We Learned in Wild Card Weekend:
- Kansas City's rested starters get injured during epic playoff collapse
- New Orleans picks perfect time to not suck on the road
- Cincinnati continues playoff futility
- Colin Kaepernick runs all over Green Bay
When you're watching the playoffs and you don't have a team playing there are only two things you can hope for. One is that any team you've sworn to hate loses in embarrassing fashion and the other is that there are exciting games. Thankfully, Wild Card Weekend didn't disappoint.
In Week 17 the Kansas City Chiefs were locked into their 5th seed spot in the AFC playoffs and couldn't advance or drop in the standings. Because of that, head coach Andy Reid decided to rest 20 out of 22 of his starters in order to save them for the impending playoff game and prevent any injuries. We all know how that game went so no need to rehash that nightmare. Well, Reid's reward for saving his starters for the playoffs were watching Jamaal Charles leave the game during their first offensive series with a concussion and a score of other injuries to players like Brandon Flowers and Justin Houston.
Even with all those injuries the Chiefs held a 28 point lead into the third quarter of the Wild Card game against the Indianapolis Colts. What happened next was a collapse of epic proportions and one of the most exciting finishes in Wild Card Weekend history. To his credit, Chiefs QB Alex Smith played quite possibly the best game of his career with four touchdown passes and 378 passing yards. Andrew Luck tossed three interceptions in the first half for the Colts but then the Chiefs' defense were completely unable to stop him and TY Hilton, who racked up 224 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Also Chiefs' kicker Ryan Succop made all three of his field goal attempts so, there's that. The Colts will now go on to play the Patriots in the divisional round.
Even though the New Orleans Saints had one of the best offenses this season they weren't scaring anyone going into the playoffs after they failed to win their division and guarantee a home playoff game. The Saints have been less than stellar on the road in 2013. Apparently all they needed was the calendar to change to 2014 to turn on their road warrior mentality. Nick Foles saved his worst game for the worst possible moment and even Ben Roethlisberger thinks he was holding onto the ball too long. New Orleans' defense was the big difference maker holding Philadelphia to 256 total yards but Drew Brees and the offense on the final drive eating up just under five minutes of clock to have Shayne Graham kick the game-winning 32-yarder is what is sending the Saints to Seattle next weekend to try and keep their road magic alive.
If you actually put money on the Cincinnati Bengals and Marvin Lewis winning a playoff game this weekend you deserve what you get. Even though the Chargers punched their playoff ticket by, let's just say questionable circumstances, they certainly lucked out by earning a trip to Cincinnati to keep their hot-streak alive. Andy Dalton was all Andy Dalton-like throwing two interceptions and fumbling the ball to account for 3 of the 4 Bengals turnovers. On the other side of the ball, San Diego was running the ball at will against a Bengals defense which was allegedly good all season. On paper, the Bengals should have easily taken this game; but that paper would have also said that they're the Bengals so obviously that wasn't the case. Twenty three years and counting since the last Cincinnati playoff win.
With all the talk about how cold it was going to be in Green Bay for the final game of Wild Card Weekend it kind of got lost how hot the San Francisco 49ers were going into the playoffs. Last year, the Packers were unable to stop Colin Kaepernick from running all over the place and kissing his bicep. History repeated itself on Sunday evening as Kaepernick, probably running towards the heaters because he was going sleeveless like a dumbass, racked up more rushing yards than any of the Packers running backs. The 49ers now have the pleasure of going up against another hot team, the Carolina Panthers.
Here's hoping the divisional round will have as much excitement as this weekend did. At this point it's more about rooting against teams than rooting for anyone. If the Patriots can implode Bengals-style and we can have a little less Harbaugh going forward in the playoffs next weekend will be a success.
Here we go Steelers!
