Putin says he and Obama still at odds on Syria, blames attack on rebels
ST. PETERSBURG, Russia, Sept 6 (Reuters) - Russian President Vladimir Putin said he and U.S. President Barack Obama stuck to their positions over Syria but listened to each other during a one-on-one meeting on the sidelines of a G20 summit on Friday and are looking for ways forward.
Putin blamed an alleged chemical attack on opponents of the Syrian government, saying it was a provocation, and suggested that a punitive U.S. military strike on the Middle Eastern nation would harm the global economy and stifle growth.

Thirty million quid is a lump today. That is the sum Sir Alex Ferguson paid Leeds United for his services a decade ago. Football folk thought he was mad. As usual, Fergie knew best.
The phrase 'footballing centre-half' gained currency because in the British football culture it was the exception to the rule. When long balls were de rigueur in our game, players with strong backs and long necks were traditionally handed the no.5 shirt.
If the ball was on the deck for any length of time, the requirement was to lump it long as quickly as possible. Bobby Moore, Alan Hansen, Mark Lawrenson, Paul Madeley Paul McGrath were honourable exceptions, Jack Charlton, Larry Lloyd, Ian Ure, Jim Holton, Dave Watson, Steve Bould, examples of the norm.
Thanks to the influence of foreign players since the advent of the Premier League and the shift in attitudes this has brought, it is not so easy to distinguish between styles in central defensive pairings in the modern era. The hard nut, John Terry, has acquired a refined skill set and the libero, Ferdinand, a tougher exterior.
As a pair they represented the high watermark of English defending. Ferdinand was, of course, part of a rich crop at West Ham United that included Frank Lampard, Joe Cole and Michael Carrick. He was a central figure in what became known as the golden generation of English footballers, a group thought capable of bringing the World Cup back to the mother country.
One by one they slipped off the international stage, Paul Scholes, Michael Owen, David Beckham, John Terry and now Ferdinand. Lampard, Steven Gerrard and Ashley Cole remain, but with no real hope of realising with England the promise of youth.
Ferdinand must be considered the best English centre back since Moore, the best at Manchester United since McGrath. In his prime before the back injury flared he was quick, athletic, two-footed and solid in the air. He is no slouch now.
Like McGrath he would have been comfortable further up the pitch and could perhaps have been encouraged more by Ferguson to attack from deep. He did this to devastating effect against Reading last month to set up Rooney's goal. And he showed pure technique with the volleyed dispatch last weekend to seal the victory in Ferguson's last home game.
It was a fitting moment, a refined piece of skill emblematic of the qualities Ferguson sought when rebuilding his treble-winning side in the early 2000s. Ferdinand netted one Holy Grail in Moscow in 2008. In Germany two years earlier and South Africa two years later his hopes were just as high for England but under foreign management that was supposed to improve our chances on the highest stage he never came close to replicating his Champions League success with United.
I am not a fan of the international retiree, even one with 81 caps. It is the coach who decides the availability of a player, but in Ferdinand's case we permit an exception. Having been initially retired for 'football reasons' on the tube by Roy Hodgson, it is only right that the last word was his.

Slate Reports What We Knew All Along.../
Well maybe not all along — maybe not when we were staring at a positive pregnancy test, imagining our lives (and our careers and our relationships and our bodies) circling the drain. Maybe not when we felt stares at the grocery store or heard judgmental comments from the cool kids in our high school/college, doing so much more important things than growing humans. Maybe not when we caught phrases like "ruining your life" and "can you afford this..." and "but you're so YOUNG," while our minds were consumed in a thick, blurry fog.
Maybe not then. BUT NOW! Now we know what Slate is talking about when they report on The Case for Having Kids in Your 20s. Or when The Stir reports on that same article, but uses an even better title for our egos: Smart Women Have Babies in Their 20s. HELL YEAH WE DO.
To sum up: Slate is responding to an opinion piece in the New York Times written by a pregnant medical student, Anna Jesus. She wrote about why getting pregnant in med school — as opposed to during her internship or residency — was best for her. And so the Slate writer, Jessica Grose, writes about why it's not so crazy to get pregnant in your 20s.
"...Perhaps ambitious women in their 20s who also want kids should consider having them sooner rather than later."
The article touches on some of the things we've talked about here — the possible career benefits of having kids earlier, the big fertility advantage, and the fact that you don't have to "have your ducks in a row" before having kids. The Stir stepped in with the "younger bodies" argument, as well as explaining that a lot of young women (herself included) waste their 20s away.
And may I add a few more? How about the fact that young 20-something parents often have less lifestyle adjustments than those who wait until their 30s and 40s, and that motherhood can give us refocused goals and priorities at the BEGINNING of our careers rather than mid-way through. We also (typically) have less pregnancy complications and birth defects, less pressure from a ticking biological clock, and more energy.
Sometimes I tell people what my site is about and I get comments like, "Is it really THAT weird to have kids in your 20s — isn't that normal?" Or "Isn't it a little anti-feminist to encourage women to have kids so young?" And just when I'm about to internalize it, I get an email from a woman who found comfort in Early Mama, or I read articles like these that remind me just how "weird" it can be for ambitious women to get pregnant in their 20s. This site isn't about normalizing anything, it's about supporting the women who feel isolated and embarrassed and hopeless and completely out of control. To remind them that there are a lot of important benefits and a lot of smart, accomplished, ambitious young mothers out there. So answer me this...
Why was it smart for you to have a baby "earlier"?

M&T Bank Corporation was founded in 1865 as the Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company in Buffalo, New York, providing financial services throughout western New York State. Since then, the company has grown to become one of the largest commercial bank holding companies in the nation.
Business loans are just one of the many services they provide through 650 branches located in New York, Pennsylvania, Washington D.C., Virginia, West Virginia, New Jersey, Florida, and Delaware. They have even expanded into Canada, opening a branch in Toronto. M&T Bank was one of the only banks that was not forced to lower dividends during the 2008 financial crisis.
The Good
- Variety of loan options
- Express business installment loan
- Comprehensive loans available
Variety of Loan Options
M&T Bank offers a wide variety of business loan options to meet many different kinds of needs. Let's consider a few of the more significant ones. The company's phenomenal growth is due in large part to acquisitions and mergers with smaller companies, including OnBank, Allfirst Bank of Baltimore, and First National Bank of Maryland. From the late 1980s through the early 2000s, M&T acquired 20 different companies, and they can now boast of assets topping $97.1 billion.
Express Business Installment Loan
This loan is designed for businesses that need help purchasing equipment, conducting renovations, or expanding. The loan limit is $5 million, which should be enough for almost any businesses needs. By offering immediate term financing, companies can get the money in a matter of days, which makes it a great choice for ongoing projects.
Term Loan
Term loans are designed for businesses looking to fund expansions or equipment purchases. Loan amounts start at $10,000, and single or multiple disbursement options are available.
SBA Guaranteed Loans
Offered under the guidelines of the U.S. Small Business Administration, an SBA Loan is intended to help companies who might not otherwise qualify for financing. With loan amounts up to $5 million, it can help start or expand a business.
Comprehensive Loans Available
The M&T Bank website provides quite a bit of information about different types of business loans, and though the information provided is not comprehensive, it does give a clear picture of what is available. Through the main website, customers can find a link to something called AnswerZone. This is a great resource for small business owners, offering a number of tools for calculating estimated payments and interest rates, and it also provides in-depth business strategy guides and extensive information on financing, small business retirement plans, and employee benefits.
Application Process
Customers are given a number of ways to begin the loan application process. They can fill out forms online, talk to a representative over the phone, or make an appointment to meet with someone in person. The online process has a clean interface, making it easy to follow. Applicants simply fill in boxes with necessary information, submit it online, and wait to be contacted.
The Bad
- Lack of transparency
- Limited service area
- Functionality of website
Lack of Transparency
M&T Bank is lacking in information when it comes to tracking down specific business loan requirements. Some information was impossible to locate on the website, especially minimum requirements for loan services, such as credit score and annual revenue.
There are other business loan companies that readily provide these sorts of vital details on their website, so it is strange than M&T does not. M&T Bank seems to prefer that potential applicants speak directly to a representative before acquiring some of this information, which can be a waste of time for a company that doesn't qualify.
It should be noted that the website is not the easiest to navigate and finding specific pages can sometimes be a challenge. Though a few helpful charts provide basic overviews of their various loan options, more detailed information is hard to come by without speaking directly to the company. This will prove to be frustrating for business owners who prefer to do a lot of research before contacting a representative.
Questionable Feedback
Also, a handful of customer testimonials are offered on the business loan page, but they are limited to glowing reviews. A cursory search of the internet reveals hundreds of complaints across a number of websites about M&T Bank services. Customer service receives the bulk of the complaints. Of course, most of these complaints are about services other than business loans, but some extensive criticisms of their business loan practices are also out there.
Limited Service Area
Services are only offered in a handful of states and cities, specifically New York, Pennsylvania, Washington D.C., Virginia, West Virginia, New Jersey, Florida, Delaware, and Toronto, Canada. Though the company is huge in terms of assets and listed among the biggest commercial bank holding companies in the U.S., their services simply are not available in most states. It is not clear if they will continue to expand into other states.
There have been numerous complaints on the internet about M&T Bank charging massive prepayment penalties for business loans. Some companies that have attempted to pay off their loans early have found themselves facing huge fees. Obviously, these fees are meant to make up for lost revenue from interest payments, but since many companies no longer charge prepayment penalties, this puts M&T Bank behind the times.
The Bottom Line
M&T Bank offers a nice variety of business loan options that should meet the needs of many different types of businesses. Combined with their reasonable rates, this makes them a great choice, especially for smaller companies. Though they could do a better job of providing specific information about loan requirements up front, this information can always be acquired in person. Of course, applicants need to be aware of possible prepayment penalties, so they don't find themselves stuck with hefty fees down the road. The express loan process is especially impressive, as it provides money in a very short amount of time.
Are there any inaccuracies in this review? We take our accuracy very seriously and would love your feedback. Give feedback here.

Hartford-Davis, You Bastard
After the moderate success of 'Black Gunn', Brit director in (self-imposed) exile Robert Hartford-Davis blaxploited for a second time with 'The Take' (1974), his last ever feature film.
Based on a novel about corruption in the London Metropolitan Police Force (the subtly titled 'Sir, You Bastard' by G.F Newman), Hartford-Davis transposes the action from the UK to the US, and the sleazy cockney copper lead into the smooth personage of Mr. Billy Dee Williams.
Billy Dee plays Terry Snead, a dirty cop who is transferred from San Francisco down to Mexico to help the local force fight organised crime. This doesn't make any sense, of course, especially as he's taking bribes from the mob before he's even unpacked and swapping tips with his new, equally bent captain on how best to store their ill gotten gains.
Lord knows why the Mob pay him, though, as it doesn't appear to have any benefits whatsoever. When he's not shooting knife throwing gangsters he's setting up sting operations or dragging in mob associates and torturing them for information. Inexplicably, though, the kickbacks keep coming. His Police colleagues know he's on 'the take' but don't seem to care either. When their one feeble attempt at incriminating him fails they seem to lose heart and let him do whatever he likes from then on. At the end, he gets promoted.
Snead is basically a massive arsehole, and although some attempt is made to tell us why (he was once a good cop but, after being unjustly accused of corruption, deliberately turned bad and stayed that way) and to show us his pain (he occasionally phones his ex who refuses to take his calls) he doesn't elicit any sympathy from the audience, only disbelief that the two timing twister doesn't up in a ditch with a bullet through his bouffant. His nadir as a human being is perhaps when he forces a fat man to take off his kaftan and do star jumps wearing just his pants as part of an interrogation / ritual humiliation before planting some drugs on him. He also makes Frankie Avalon cry, so he's not all bad.
With a better script, 'The Take' could have been an intricate, cynical tale, and nead a master manipulator, a man who can be under arrest one day and made a Captain the next, but it just doesn't happen. The direction too is lacklustre, and limited by obvious budget restrictions. Apart from the odd shot, Hartford-Davis doesn't direct so much as simply film, and the finished product lacks tension and energy as a result.
Unabashed, Hartford-Davis took his quick and cheap methodology to the small screen, and was working on the cop show 'Cat & Dog' when he keeled over from a massive heart attack and died. He was 53 years old.
And with that, we're nearly at the end of our year long Hartford-Davis odyssey. It's been an interesting, occasionally mind numbing journey, but it's not quite over: we haven't done 'Gonks Go Beat!' yet...

Gentlemen Broncos
It concerns Benjamin, a dirt poor lonely boy from a very small town in Utah. Benjamin dreams of being a sci fi / fantasy writer but, when his ideas are stolen by his literary idol, Dr. Ronald Chevalier, he falls into despair.
A low-key mix of dry deadpan comedy and the plain silly, 'Gentlemen Broncos' was denied a general release because of poor test audience reactions, but has had a second life on DVD and satellite TV. I won't make any claims for it as a flawless masterpiece, but it's one of the most enjoyable new films I've seen in recent years: a charming, ridiculous, cheap, nerdy pleasure.
In a brilliant touch, scenes from Benjamin's book ('Yeast Lords: The Bronco Years') are presented twice, sometimes three times: as Benjamin sees them, as the fraudulent Dr. Chevalier has revised them, and through the no budget camera of the appalling Lonnie Donaho, a local 'auteur' who has purchased the rights to the story with a postdated cheque. Not only does this allow some fantasy counterpoint to a story that largely takes place in the mundane spaces of the rural American west, but it also lets the director parody sci fi films and low budget movies in general, including the awful melodrama that Benjamin is induced to appear in, playing a sensual stable hand.
Michael Angarona plays Benjamin with an air of desperate resignation, his hangdog face and dying puppy eyes permanently prepared for the next kick in the teeth. Sam Rockwell gives a broad but highly enjoyable performance as Benjamin's fictional mono-orchid hero, Bronco, carrying off both wild beard and, in Chevalier's version, white disco mullet and porn star moustache. Perhaps the best performance comes from 'Flight Of The Conchords' Jermaine Clement as the distinguished (but increasingly desperate) sci fi guru, Chevalier. The bad doctor, with his nasal voice, literary pretensions and Native American jewelry is a perfect comic creation, a pompous, ridiculous character, a King of the Dorks who will do anything to avoid losing his crown.
Here's the trailer.

Shit, Man
'Black Gunn' was reprobate director Robert Hartford-Davis' first American film (he'd quit the UK after the 'Nobody Ordered Love' debacle, remember?), and it's an undemanding and uninspiring slice of blaxploitation (I had to watch it twice for the purpose of this review, as I couldn't remember anything from the first viewing).
Heavyset former American Football star Jim Brown plays Gunn, one of those ridiculous wish fulfilment characters that crop up in action film scripts like this: he's rich and well-connected, a pillar of the community; he has a nightclub in the basement of his mansion; he drives women wild, and he's deadly when crossed.
The only problem Gunn has in his ridiculously perfect world is his younger brother, Scotty, a Black Panther who is obsessed with sticking it to The Man. When Scotty and his angry beret wearing pals rob a mob fronted business things go heavy at the bottom and tapered at the top: Scotty winds up dead and dumped on his brother's lawn, so Gunn loads up his shotgun, flexes his big fists and gets ready to kick some Mafioso arse.
Brown is his usual quiet, capable self, but the best characters are in support, like supercool Bernie Casey (no man ever wore an afro like Bernie), Oscar winning Martin Landau (as a bad ass mob boss) and the deeply creepy Bruce Glover (Crispin's Dad) as an incredibly repellent and racist hit man. The whole undertaking is rather low key and by the numbers, but then presumably Hartford-Davis was trying to prove himself professionally so reined in his natural impulse for sleaze and shock. The action sequences are okay, but marred by obvious stand ins. The climactic confrontation between Gunn & the hit man is a real disappointment, firstly because he doesn't kill the creepy bastard and secondly because the two men fighting are quite clearly not Jim Brown and Bruce Glover.
In the end analysis, 'Black Gunn' is competent, professional and, by Hartford-Davis standards, relatively tasteful and restrained. Oh, Robert, Bob, Bobby, what went wrong?
Here's the wonkily synched clip in which Gunn's brother meets his end. It's notable for this eloquent, moving exchange between the brothers as they say their final farewell.
Sonny: 'I can't believe this shit. Oh Man, this shit has taken me out, man'.
Gunn: 'Shit'.
It's rather beautiful.

From the fabricator: Are we wasting more money?
So last week I defended my positivity, and amazingly this week, I start off with a little bit of a negative edge. There are just some things that set me off, and this is truly one of them. Readers of this blog know that I have never really been a fan of the Department of Energy. I have found them weak, feckless and usually smitten with one side of the story, with no desire whatsoever to learn the other. Lately, the DOE has been in the news thanks to adventures in the solar world and loan guarantees gone bad, and this week, they yet again made the wrong kind of news. Evidently, the DOE started a contest for "app" developers to create programs for consumers to measure how much energy they use. This contest offers over $100K in cash prizes. The problem? There's no need for the contest! There are already several apps out there! In addition, do we really need to spend $100K on something so frivolous? It just boggles the mind. Meanwhile, the DOE blows off legitimate products that could use a bump of cash and support. But, a contest to create something already created makes the cut. Unreal.
- A pretty wild story this week on Serious Energy and the adventures that might or might not be happening over there. Here's the link. It's an interesting piece to say the least, and with a title like "Serious Energy in Serious Trouble", I think it might be worth a read.
- A few major personnel moves from this week: Dan Plotnick has joined Guardian in the Asia Pacific region. A great grab for the guys at Guardian, Dan is a super-talented guy and one person brave enough to read my stuff in China. Bob Larsen has joined Premier Glass Products, making a good group even better. I have known Bob a long time, dating back to us sharing a board of director assignment together, and they just don't make 'em much better than him.
- Also, Consolidated Glass Holding Group named its CEO with the announcement of Tom Ryan. Welcome to the wild and wooly glass and glazing industry Mr. Ryan.
- If you missed it last week Rod Van Buskirk had his debut blog, and I have to say, it was a great maiden effort. Rod's work looks to be a "must read" every time out, and considering it will only come quarterly, there's surely no excuse to miss it.
- And speaking of "missing it," if you haven't checked out the latest issue of Glass Magazine, you need to. Seriously, one of the best all-around issues I have seen. From cover to cover, great articles, information and advertisements. Congrats to Jenni Chase and the team at Glass Magazine on a job well done.
- A job well done to the folks at Technical Glass Products; they launched a new website, and it is simply super. Clean, sharp and tons of info. Plus, it looks to feature a great social concept, including a blog from Jeff Razwick that I am holding out high hopes for.
- Last this week: NHL hockey hits playoff season… I have been warned I am not allowed to pick the Canucks, Capitals or Penguins. Fans of those teams have demanded I don't jinx them. Sadly, (especially being a Pens fan) I wasn't picking those teams anyway as I am going with a Cup Final of Chicago vs. Boston… for the Hawks I think Patrick Kane carries this team and the Bruins are a solid, well coached team and I think they are going to repeat and hoist the Cup again.

As part of the European Immunization Week I was asked to publish a blog post about vaccines, as this is a topic I have written extensively about, and also travelled around Norway and other European countries to talk about for lay people and health authorities.
A while ago the World Health Organization (WHO) did an interview with me which today has been published here. You can both read the text and listen to the audio.
The following is a blog post I originally published in Norwegian back in October 2014, but with the help of freelance journalist Malin Bring, who has been hired by WHO to work on this project, I can now present this English version. Some of the links are unfortunately in Norwegian, but I have linked to Google Translate versions of the blog posts and articles.

Graph is displayed by opening "Tools">"Serial Plotter" in the Arduino IDE
Interesting instructable! New to Arduino, but my understanding of the code would say that the three LED's stay low until they hit the incremental values of 20, 45 and 60. Do these increments need tailored to the user? Or is it normal that all the values that my device receives are too low for any of the LED's? My readings are averaging around 8 - 10 at rest, but never much more than that.View Instructable »

About the Owner
0 Reviews
Activity and Interests
The Resort:
The Vila Sol Golf Club was the first creation of the famous English architect, Donald Steel, in Portugal. The course is a 27 hole championship golf course with a very friendly club house and good facilities. It has an excellent driving range and has a Golf Academy where lessons can be booked for all abilities.
Other Facilities:
• There is a bar at the entrance to the resort called Oscar's – they have live music Friday and Saturday evenings and a nice range of pub food.
Lots of events go on during the summer at the pub. A cocktail lounge/Restaurant called Moon, which is next to Oscars has a lovely bar/lounge and great food.
• A patisserie is also near the entrance of the resort – lovely to stroll
down to for fresh bread, Danish pastries or breakfast.
A tapas bar is next to the patisserie as is a small shop selling essential goods.
• There is a large supermarket 2 minutes drive from the resort entrance. As you come out of the resort do a right at the roundabout and the supermarket is on the right just before another roundabout which takes you into Vilamoura or Quarteira.
• The tennis courts at the hotel can be booked through the hotel reception.
There are also tennis/paddle courts near the house.
• There is a games room at the hotel with table tennis, pool, air hockey, pinball and video games.
• The hotel has an indoor and outdoor pool and gym facilities and there is also a jogging track at the back of the hotel. The hotel may make a small charge for the use of these facilities if they think you are not staying in the hotel!
• Green Pines is the hotel restaurant and we have eaten there several times and have always enjoyed it. The bar in the hotel is very comfortable, and late night snacks are available.
Outside the Resort:
• There is a supermarket just outside the resort (as mentioned above) and there are others a short drive away – located in either Almancil or Vilamoura. Supermarkets are open from 9.00am until late.
• Pharmacies are open from 9.00am until 12.00pm and 2.30pm through to 6.00pm – they operate a late duty roster which will be posted on pharmacy doors.
• There are plenty of banks in Vilamoura. In general hotels do not
encourage currency exchange. Banks are open from 8.30am until 2.30pm. They are generally closed at weekends.
• There is a Multibanco at the Golf Club House and just outside Oscar's at which you can withdraw cash if your card is suitable.
General Shops:
• Shops catering for tourists are open every day of the week in the high season – often until 10.00pm at night. There are a number of designer shops in Vilamoura and Quinta do Lago, which do not stay open as late and more touristy ones in Albufeira – which do.
• There is also a large shopping mall in Faro called Forum Algarve and another in Guia near Alberfeira.
• The Algarve has a roaming gypsy market which is an interesting way to spend a morning.
Almost all golf courses in the Algarve require a handicap certificate and all have a dress code. Of course, there is the fabulous course where you are staying – and there are some equally fantastic courses within a short drive from Vila Sol.
In Vilamoura these are:
• The Old Course (tel: 289 310341)
• Pinhal (tel: 289 310390)
• Laguna: (tel: 289 310180)
• Millenium (tel: 289 310188)
• Victoria (tel: 289 320100
Vale do Lobo:
• Ocean Course (tel: 289 353535)
• Royal (tel: 289 353535)

Didn't even read the whole piece as it struck me more and more of a fans opinion the more I read it.
Until the Bengals prove it with any level of consistency, then no, they can not be viewed as the best team in this division.
Merely having a lot of young talent that squeaked into the playoffs after losing all four games to the two teams this blogger is trying to claim the Bengals are now better then, does not elevate you in status above those same two teams.
Are they in position to be competitive and attempt to over take those teams, certainly, but once again, prove it.
The Ravens & Steelers have both proven over the course of time to remain competitive and consistent in either winning this division, and or advancing deep into the post season.
In the Steelers case (sadly in Ravens' fans eyes) have won Superbowls.
Both have had valuable player losses over the years only to prove that their newer acquisitions can come in and fill those roles with little to no drop off.
You don't surpass that kind of proven consistent track record simply by stock piling good talent due to having continued high draft picks and occasionally finding your way into the playoffs to be dismissed rapidly.
This seems like a fun game, let me try.
Are dogs the world's smartest animal?
Will the Orioles win 100 games this season?
Is getting your high school sweet heart's name tattooed onto your face a sound decision?
Man, coming up with questions that can all be answered with the phrase "Are you fucking stupid?" is fun!
I am here: http://tapatalk.com/map.php?5sulul
Honestly I'm more worried about the Bengals giving us a run at the division more so than the Steelers. They were 7th in defense last year with subpar secondary play. Add in a Kirkpatrick, or one of the other top DB's in the first and that just improved the postion.
Their offense was mediocre, they lost Simpson but figure they add a Floyd, or Hill or whomever is on their board and you don't have much of a loss there. They added BGE in the running game and prob need to look at another in the draft.
All in all it's going to fall on the Ginger's shoulders. Is he going to progress, or is he what he is? He didn't have the best grades coming out of the draft and everything was saying mediocre.
I fell for this last year. I convinced myself the Bengals were finally going to break out. And even though Dalton played better than I expected, they still didn't factor. I'll give the Bengals credit after they prove they deserve it. Can't rule it out, but won't rule it in until I see it.
Until the Bengals prove otherwise they're still the 3rd best team. Every year everyone expects something big of the Bengals they fail. How many times over the last decade have people said the Bengals are on the cusp - only to see them fall off?
To be honest I'm one of those people - I keep expecting the Bengals to play better than they do. Maybe this will be the year, but I'm not really counting on it.
The Bungles the best team in the AFC North... nope! The most exciting thing about the Bungles is not their playing ability; it is to see what they will mess up next (my guess is the two first round draft picks).
The Bengals have a promising future...but we have said that before. They always blow it. Hall isn't going to be ready for the season, which sux for them now that cameron and flacco have the pieces to blow the top of their cover 2.

More Fashionistas Admit to Being Thrifty at Prom!
More celebrity fashionistas are admitting that they're frugalistas! Just after learning Dakota Fanning wore her red carpet dress to a prom this week (see here), we heard Kourtney Kardashian, from Keeping Up with the Kardashians, wore her prom dress to an Oscar event!
We learned this from students at the Savannah College of Art and Design in Georgia, who surveyed celebrities about how they're saving money these days (talk about a cool class project). They also learned that the TODAY Show Style Editor Bobbie Thomas made her own jewelry and dress for prom. Even the famous dress designer Nicole Miller, whose gowns retail for more than $300-$400, told them it's a good idea to "shop around before making a decision," so you can get the best deals.
This prom season, girls who have trouble affording new dresses can go to DonateMyDress.org to find out where to get a free dress — or if you have a dress that you've already worn to a special event, why not ask them if you can swap it for a "new" one?
Do you consider yourself a "frugalista"? It's becoming fashionable to confess — do so below!

Others you don't see coming, like the magnificent defining moment of this previously turgid game.
When Stuart Pearce sent for a fit-again former England international as a goal-scoring remedy for City's recent slump, he was thinking more of Andy Cole than Danny Mills.
But it was the experienced full-back, recalled in place of the new England under-21 recruit Neddum Onuoha following a virus, who wondrously ended 72 minutes of tedium.
With Everton belatedly stretched by opponents they beat home and away last season in what must already seem a previous life, Mills received a short pass from the substitute Lee Croft, took a few paces and crashed home right-footed from close on 30 yards.
Not only was it awesome power that did for Nigel Martyn, there was even a bit of "draw" to underpin Mills' first goal since Leeds United faced Bolton Wanderers in December 2002.
"I was shouting 'get back, get back', then he goes and does something like that,'' said Pearce. "He's come up with a most-unlike Danny Mills shot.''
At a time when Everton would kill for the scruffiest of entries on the scoresheet, they needed finishing of that surprise element against them like a party animal needs an 11.15am kick-off.
Up with the lark they may have been, but they remain very much down with the strugglers and will be facing a fight to preserve their 52-season top-flight status if they don't wake up soon from their stupor.
Their manager David Moyes has reverted to 4-4-2 from the widely damned 4-5-1 that served him so well last season. When you have been knocked out of two European competitions, hit the bottom of the table and scored only one league goal by the start of October, there is a certain argument for going back to basics.
The fact that James Beattie and Duncan Ferguson were sent on in turn, though, for Marcus Bent and James McFadden underlined this as another day of lean pickings. Although David James' kicking was atrocious and Tim Cahill was rightly given offside before netting following a Nuno Valente free-kick, Everton took until the final 15 minutes to seriously threaten.
Then Kevin Kilbane's shot was beaten out by the diving keeper and Sylvain Distin cleared near the line in the 89th minute from his rival captain, David Weir, with Beattie unable to make the decisive contact.
The sight of a City fan in pyjamas provided light relief amid the culture shock of witnessing the Premiership's earliest ever kick-off but, when it came to alarm, the morning call had nothing on the woeful lack of first-half quality.
In front of a bleary-eyed crowd which was actually 300 up on City's average for the season, the home side were thankfully much improved in the second half - a point reinforced in injury time when Darius Vassell slid the ball home following good work by Sun Jihai and Joey Barton.
Everton's discomfort will intensify if the FA act over an unspotted kick-out at Croft by Neville, who has already been sent off this season. The former Manchester United utility man was resilient in a midfield in which 19-year-old Stephen Ireland was impressive in his first Premiership start. But Neville might have left Moyes in even deeper strife.
"It's too early to talk about relegation battles, but we want to get away from the position we're in as soon as we can," the manager said. "There is still talent here and we need that to show very quickly.''
Goals: Mills (72) 1-0; Vassell (90) 2-0.

For all those Tim Tebow bashers out there, and there are a lot of you for reasons still inexplicable, this news flash: The former University of Florida star and college football Golden Boy, despite his well-documented mechanical deficiencies, still was the best rookie quarterback on the field leaguewide during the inaugural weekend of preseason play.
At least from a numbers and composure standpoint.
The Broncos' first-round draft pick, and latter day Friar Tuck lookalike (we'll assume that, unless you live in a cave, you caught a glimpse of the hazing-induced coif that has since been clipped), completed 8 of 13 passes for 105 yards, no touchdowns, no interceptions, and a passer rating of 87.0 against Cincinnati. He also rushed twice for 10 yards, including a 7-yard touchdown run.

This year brings another February 29. Why do leap years exist? Jim Sowell is a senior academic professional in the School of Physics and the director of the Georgia Tech Observatory. He says leap year was a creation of Julius Caesar.
As of February 29, 2016, the calendar is back on track. Every four years, the addition of one day brings us closer to a more precise calculation of the Earth's orbit.
Getting to our current calendar system has been a complicated process, mostly because of three important celestial rotations: the Earth's spin, which gives us the day; the orbit of the Earth around the sun, which gives us the year; and the orbit of the moon around the Earth, the basis for the month.

Exclusive Premiere: ohGr's New Track, "Crash"
In our never-ending quest to provide you with the best music available, we present the Revolver Bootleg Series. Every month we'll feature new, rare, and often exclusive music.
This installment comes from industrial duo ohGr, who feature Skinny Puppy's vocalist Nivek Ogre. They release unDeveloped (Metropolis), their fourth studio album, on May 10, but they share one song off the album, "Crash," here. Ogre fills us in below.
[audio:http://revolvermag.com/wp-content/uploads/audio/Ohgrcrash_intro.mp3,http...|titles="Crash intro","Crash"|artists=Ohgr,Ohgr]
REVOLVER What's "Crash" about?
OHGR "Crash" gives feeling to the continued disconnect between sustainability and that unflinching need to define oneself through possessions, whether devoured, inhabited in, or continually coveted. How many angels, dancing on a pin's head, popping various economic bubbles while pricking the skin of Michael Jackson, will be needed to allow the prince sleep? This star struggles with insomnia lost the plot. He was living on his own headlined fumes, now bankrupt, in a self-made world now barely livable. A masthead tied to an economic ghost ship created when many of life's larger mechanisms began withdrawing, wasting away.
"Crash" is about the very idea of death panels. this abstract form of the inhumane mind bending of people, asserting socialized medicine somehow meant death panels. This horrendous portrait of doctors maliciously holding back treatments from any poor uneducated fool that allows for regulation of one of the most dirty of hippocratic industries. The blue healer in wolf's clothing? Wouldn't it be a truer statement that not having socialized medicine for the poor is the purest, most poignant, definition of death panels?
Michael Jackson, who I am sure had seen more corruption of wealth than most, seemed the body politic for a slipping point to which symbolized the beginning of the "Crash." Who then holds the gun?
Which part did you come up with first?
The idea for the song did not spring from any mechanized nod to verse, bridge, chorus. The motivator in any piece of music comes from the roots of "What do you have to say?" and "How are you going to say it?" Everything else, more or less, falls into place.
ohGr tend to write from the point of supporting the vocal. This does not have to be the starting point however and, as in this case, "Crash" seemed to evolve in a linear mode based on the concept inspired by the emergency call and the healthcare debate at the time. And of course the "blanket!"
Was this an easy song to write?
The whole album was fairly easy to write. There are, as with the first three songs on the album, those rare moments of creativity seemingly flowing with an ease that gives one pause to the gratuitous moment. A tapping into the rich conscious source that exists just outside the 4G broadband driven cellular low wave world we exist in. It's in those moments that, for me, there is a connection to the very act of trapping, as if in amber through recording, a moment in time. It's very special.
What sort of feedback have you gotten on this song so far?
As I write this it's still over two weeks to release so it's a bit premature to ask for the ejaculation ratings. I like it. ohGr likes it. We no longer possess it. unDeveloped is in the eye of the beholder to feed the back on. Enjoy the trip down.

Due to its payload range of 0 to 6 kilograms Ace L is very versatile: Be it a shooting with a lightweight video enabled DSLR camera, a heavier rig with accessories or a HDV camcorder. A counterbalance of 7 steps allows rapid balancing of the camera set-up whereas the patented SA drag™ provides fine adjustment for precise panning and tilting.
The new Sachtler Ace fluid head has a tilt range of +90° to -75°. For Ace, a glass fiber reinforced composite material was chosen, which makes the new 75mm fluid head especially light and offers a comfortable and non-slip surface feel. An illuminated bubble makes work with Sachtler Ace L even more convenient.

Whenever I see that picture of Archbishop Charles Chaput I think to myself, "great scott, he looks clean as a whistle!"And then I think, "his face is youthful, yet it has an ages-past quality to it," one that reminds me of the faces you would see in a reading primer of the mid-twentieth century -- it's almost too seamlessly innocent; you know there is depth beneath that baby face!Max Lindenman has a very balanced and well-wrought column up considering the Archbishop, who is soon to move to … [Read more...]
Chaput from a Distant Pew – UPDATED
Tumbling America and the Narrative Thrust UPDATED
America is in the process of tumbling: she has one party interested only in "remaking" America with or without the constitution's guidance; it is a party become so expert at political maneuvering that it no longer believes it actually has to lead, build consensus or compromise -- ever -- and another party that can't manage to stick a post into a hole and call it a goal. The Democrats and Republicans remind me of nothing so much as Jules and Brett in Pulp Fiction -- the Democrats alternately sly … [Read more...]
Chaput = "SHAP-yoo" — UPDATED
An interview from 2008: (H/T)UPDATE: Okay. SHAPyoo seems to be the winner. And here is a really good piece by Dave Gibson on the man.+++++ UPDATE: First Things has just published A column by Chaput on Catholic Charity in Secular America:For Catholics, every human person—no matter how disabled, poor, or flawed—has a unique, inviolable dignity. Sanctity of life and the basic rights that go with it begin at conception and continue through natural death.But civil society con … [Read more...]
Swords, Chaput, Wheat and Weeds – UPDATED
My Tuesday Column over at First Things this week addresses what seems to me to be the unseemly amount of fretting being done by people of faith:Perhaps it is because so many Catholics currently seem to be wandering that some are panicking and reaching for their cutlasses. Certainly the Church does seem to be in a prolonged season of penance, wrought by both her tragic inattention to clerical abuses and the sinfully inadequate catechesis of the last forty years. That a couple of generations of … [Read more...]
Chaput to Philadelphia
I do believe that Rocco Palmo's Whispers in the Loggia may have been first to break the news, but New Advent might have won by a nose.And it's big news, indeed -- the beleaguered and hurting Philadelphia's new bishop is Denver's Charles Chaput:Rocco -- from whom I shamelessly cribbed the picture -- writes:He is brash, outspoken and fearless -- energetic, colorful, cultured... indeed, even hard-core....And if multiple indications from near and far have it right, he stands set to bring … [Read more...]

What You Should Know
Businesses value certainty above everything else with the exception of profit. Unfortunately, this world is quite uncertain. Anything can happen at any time and all you can do is to prepare for any eventual outcome. Many of the businesses that fail to prepare adequately especially in terms of getting the right kind of insurance close shop. An example of a critical type of insurance is professional indemnity insurance, which protects your business financially against claims of negligence or breach of duty. These claims can cost your business lots of money in terms of litigation fees, penalty fees, and lost business opportunities resulting from representational loss.
Who uses it
Some businesses need this type of insurance more than others do. They include management consultants, IT experts, recruitment agencies, and designers. Fitness professionals and teachers also need to prioritise this kind of insurance as they prepare their budgets for the year. Indemnity insurance is so important for these firms mentioned here that some companies and institutions would not business with them if they lack it. For example, a management consultant firm may get a contract to work with an industrial firm for five years yet the consultancy closes shop in the third year because of a negligence suit lodged against it. Additionally, the industrial firm would need to know that the consultancy could bear the costs of a negligence suit it can bring against the company if the business relationship fails.
Being noticed
It is important to note that having professional indemnity insurance shows your current and potential client that you are a serious firm. They would see that you understand the dynamics of business and as such, you have prepared for any eventuality. In fact, you might inspire them to get indemnity insurance for their business. These are the benefits of getting this type of insurance. You should get it as soon as possible because it will only cover negligence claims if the incident in question occurred after you got the claim.

Auto enthusiasts know that a brand you can trust is built into each GMC, and understand that only the best replacement Sierra 1500 Classic parts will suffice when your car or truck needs fixing. It's not a regular occurrence that you realize that you have to buy a replacement Idle Air Control Valve to repair your vehicle. GMC car, truck, or SUV owners have come to expect a certain level of dependability when driving their Sierra 1500 Classic around town. Make no mistake, you didn't buy your Sierra 1500 Classic unless you wanted to buy horsepower and rugged design both rolled up into one car, truck, or SUV.
You can't get great gas mileage and horsepower at the same time without high-quality engine components. Your GMC Sierra 1500 Classic has a fuel-injected engine that requires a great deal of electronic calibration, and uses its idle air control valve as a way to keep the engine idling. The GMC Sierra 1500 Classic idle control valve meters a specific amount of air into the intake when the throttle is completely closed. That means your engine can still maintain a constant 700-900 RPM while waiting at a red light... all thanks to your idle air control valve.
Don't let a broken Idle Air Control Valve spell the end of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't gamble with its condition by installing anything but the best replacement parts. Procuring new GMC parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are getting the best deal on the highest quality original and aftermarket replacement Sierra 1500 Classic parts on the internet. At Car Parts Discount, we have live customer service members here with enough expertise to help you buy the correct GMC Sierra 1500 Classic part for your project or repair. Need 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 Classic Idle Air Control Valve parts? We've got them right here.

Bill Parcells always gave team the best chance to win

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Bill Parcells learned a life-changing lesson in his first coaching job at little Hastings College — give your team the best chance to win.
If that later meant cutting a couple of popular guys to get his type of tough-minded players, or tearing down a perennial All Pro linebacker to make him better, patting a shy player on the butt instead of yelling at him, spending the endless hours on the Xs and Os or even looking the other way with Lawrence Taylor, at times, Parcells did it.

11:372:474 Advanced Remote Sensing, Spring 2005
Class Meeting: M ENR 123 W ENR 247 (CRSSA Teaching Lab)
Instructor: Rick Lathrop e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com Phone: 732 932-1580 Fax: 932-2587
Objectives: students should learn the fundamentals of digital
analysis, interpretation and application of satellite remotely sensed
imagery. Students should develop an understanding of digital image
processing techniques (including the basic data structures and algorithms
involved) and become proficient in the hands-on application of these techniques
using the ERDAS image processing workstations. Students should learn not
just how but also why and when to apply digital image processing techniques in
the analysis of remotely sensed imagery.
