Injury updates: Arenas, Redd, Gortat
by Jason on Aug.17, 2009, under Injuries
Agent Zero has probably fallen out of favor, and maybe off the radar for many fantasy basketball fans, especially those who have been burned by him in the past two seasons. However, early signs seem to indicate that Gilbert Arenas is healthy and ready to be the high-scoring, electrifying point guard for the Washington Wizards again. Steve Alexander of Rotoworld.com thinks that Arenas could very well be drafted in the third round: "I think taking a gamble on him in the third round makes sense, as he could end up providing first-round value." With a well-rounded, healthy roster this season, if Arenas is indeed healthy, he'll be the reason why many owners smack their foreheads in the first month of the season. He seems like a prime candidate to be early trade bait if you're more risk averse but decide to grab him early.
- Michael Redd only played 33 games last season before going down with a left knee injury, which required surgery. He hasn't received much attention lately, but he may warrant a look in the middle to late rounds of most drafts. "The doctors have told me that absolutely I will be able to come back stronger than I was before, if I rehab the proper way," Redd said in an interview with the Journal Sentinel. There doesn't seem to be a set timetable just yet, so don't get your hopes up for a fully healthy Redd to be ready by the beginning of the season. At best, it seems reasonable to expect that Redd will be ready to come off the bench for the Milwaukee Bucks by the season opener. Redd could be a huge help to get your team into solid playoff contention. Don't disregard him in your drafts.
- Marcin Gortat, the backup center for the Orlando Magic who got way more attention (and money) than he deserved this summer, has apparently suffered a back injury while playing for the Polish national team in London on Friday. According to a British blogger, Gortat is expected to be out for five to seven days. Back injuries tend to linger, especially bad ones, but Gortat seems to have dodged a bullet here. Still, if you are in a deeper league and are thinking about drafting the Polish Hammer, monitor this situation.

Sherm Feller Belongs in The Boston Red Sox Hall of Fame
Sherm Feller was the greatest ballpark announcer in Red Sox history. Sherm's famous "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome to Fenway Park" is still used on TV , radio, and all over the internet. Sherm's induction into The Boston Red Sox Hall of Fame is long overdue. Please sign this petition to be sent to The BoSox, The Boston Red Sox Hall of Fame Committee, Dick Bresciani, Boston Red Sox Historian, and creator of the Red Sox H.O.F..
Sheryl Fleitman
Sherm was our next door neighbor for years. Quite a character with a huge heart!
Ron Della Chiesa
Sherm was the best!
A multi- talented musician, composer, talk show host, humorist,and the Ted Williams of ballpark announcers.
He belongs in the Red Sox Hall of Fame.
This is Sherm's year.
Sinatra loved him and the fans did too!

Petition highlights
- This was the highest compliment to date from the late Carl Beane.....I just discovered this fabulous website. A very dear friend told me about this and after reading through it, I felt I had to write. I have covered the Red Sox as a radio reporter for 27 years and along the way got to know the wonderful voice I heard as a child when my late father would take my two younger brothers and me on the bus from Springfield, Ma to Fenway Park. When I was a child I told everybody that someday I would be a Red Sox announcer. I loved listening to Sherm, then would have a laugh after every ballgame when Sherm would sit in the media room and tell those wonderful stories in that one of a kind voice. He became a great friend and in a way a mentor to me due to his involvement in radio and as the Voice of Fenway Park. In 2003, my dream came true. I now occupy that position as the P. A. announcer at Fenway. Every game, I pay tribute to Sherm. I tap his picture just outside the booth and ask him to get me through another game. I use the same greeting he did because it was and is perfect. I always say to anyone who asks about the job, that "I'll never fill his shoes, but I do get to sit in his chair". Bob Sheppard, the long time voice of Yankee Stadium, was a good friend of Sherm's and over the years has shared stories about him with me. Mr. Sheppard had a great deal of respect for him, as do I. I agree that Sherm should be honored in a special way, and I intend this summer to offer his name for induction into the Red Sox Hall of Fame. He deserves it and it is the right thing to do. I have already spoken to some of the Red Sox executives about this, so it will be brought up at the proper time. I hope it happens. Sherm Feller was and will always be the "Voice of Fenway Park". He was my friend, and ironically, he died 4 years to the day that my dad passed away. I miss them both very much. Respectfully submitted, Carl Beane

Seattle >Food & Dining > Hi Spot Cafe
1410 34th Ave, Seattle, WA | Directions 9812247.613315 -122.289121
Daily 8:30am-2:30pm
Neighborhoods: Central Seattle, Central, Madrona
Close to fantastic Breakfast – The most important part of the breakfast was excellent...Green Eggs and Ham (Scrambled eggs with Mozzarella, pesto and Ham) were spot on, and my brides Breakfast Burrito delivered the goods. The remaining star is withheld due to cold potatoes and cold toast...OUCH. And, while the service was caring, it was obvious that our server was taxed with too many tables creating an apologetic but slow breakfast.
We REALLY wanted to like Hi Spot but in the end it was Kinda Hi-Spot for us.
Cute space, great breakfast, and friendly face – I only have one thing to say. Ask for Greg! He is so nice, everything else falls into place. The food speaks for itself!
Great breakfast! – I don't go out to breakfast much, so breakfast places are memorable to me-- good or bad. The Hi Spot is one of the good. There were 8 of us who got there around 8am (when it opens) and although we each ordered something different and the food all came at the same time, and service was pleasant and prompt. Most importantly though, the food was delicious. The pancake I ordered was crisp on the outside and soft and fluffy in the middle (no rubber discs here!) and the scones are delicious- I had to get 2 to-go!!
Great even if you don't live in Madrona – I love breakfast here on the weekends. It's such a great atmosphere of busy but calmed down with the old house feel around you. I also take a scone for the road no matter one...serioulsly to die for with my latte.
Head to Madrona for a great breakfast and a good dose of homespun charm. – The Scene
This is one of Seattle's premier breakfast spots, but the cozy atmosphere translates well into afternoon, with fresh flowers and candlelight illumating the pale dining room. Speedy servers cart platters of cheese-baked eggs and massive cinnamon rolls throughout the converted Victorian home for crowds of eager diners.
The Food
Most of the staples are safe bets, but the daring diner should order the Bengal Benedict: This variation on the classic pairs poached eggs with a velvety curry that works wonderfully. The three-egg breakfast burrito usually requires a to-go box. The lunch menu features classics like Reubens, melts and a good grilled veggie sandwich.
Best Brunch Date Spot – First I must gush about the food... the omelets are stuffed to the brim and over flowing with only the best ingredients (try the northwest omelet), the potatoes are hearty, perfectly seasoned, and never leave a grease pit on your plate, and the side of toast that comes with just about every plate on the menu consists of thick slices of Seattle?s most whole some artisan breads.
Despite the constant line formed in the foyer cafe, the services is always quick, courteous and more than happy to customize your order. I particularly like being offered a scone or muffin while waiting in the cafe for a table.
Great breakfast spot. – I had the Northwest Exposure omelette and my boyfriend had the customized omelette. Both were excellent. They came with home fries and toast. The home fries were pretty good and the toast was very yummy, especially with the berry jam. The place itself appears to be a renovated home, with a bathtub in the bathroom and everything. The decor is cute and modern. The staff was relatively attentive, if somewhat distracted because the place was busy. Even so, we were seated after only a few minutes of waiting and our food came very soon after we ordered. There's no parking lot, but it's in an area where there's quite a bit of free parking on the street. We'll definitely be adding this to our rotation of breakfast restaurants.
best coffee around – this place is great for b-fast,but the real prize here is the coffee. The barista's are well traned and friendly. Go during the week to avoid crowds.
Nice Relaxing Brunch – Out of all the places I could have breakfast in the city, I consistently return to the Hi-Spot. It's so warm and cozy, I almost feel like I could go in my PJ's and not get stared at. The food is so wonderful - so many choices! From vegan dishes, to scrambles, to breakfast burritos to scrumptious, in-house pastries, chances are you'll find something you like here! The pancakes are fantastic! I'm a big fan of the Green Eggs and Ham and the Tofu Scramble. The old Victorian Home makes for some super nice atmsophere. Seriously, this is the most relaxing, laid back place for a leisurely weekend breakfast!
Wonderful Everything! – This has been my favorite breakfast spot for the past 6 years. The food is ALWAYS wonderful. The service is great. Sure, the wait can be long during peak brunch hours - but what good restaurant isn't? The food is worth the wait and it arrives promptly once you order. If you DO have to wait, grab a coffee from the espresso bar and stroll through the neighborhood. Cupcake Royale/Verite Coffee is just down the street. The great thing about the Hi-Spot? It's consistently good with a menu that can satisfy the pickiest of eaters! Also a good spot for vegetarians as egg-white and veggie omelettes and tofu scrambles are one the menu! Breakfast in a converted, funky old Madrona home...makes you feel like you're at a friend's house.

"I was waiting on a call last night from Ole Miss but never got it," he said.
Interest from the Rebels started last week when defensive coordinator Dave Wommack traveled to Lineville to see Staples, spending the day at Clay Central, attending the Volunteers' basketball game that night and inviting Staples to visit campus over the weekend.
However, the senior was unable to make the trip to Oxford, Miss. In turn, he did not hear back from the Rebels, which landed him with UAB, where he will play wide receiver.
"They stood out to me once I took my official visit," Staples said about the Blazers. "I liked the vision the coaches have for where the program is going."
Along with recording 41 tackles and four interceptions at safety, Staples had 574 yards and three touchdowns.
"Jamari has great size," Clay Central coach Steve Giddens said about the 6-4, 175-pounder. "With his frame I think Jamari is going to be able to get thicker and put on a little bit more weight without losing his quickness and outright speed."
MAJOR DEAL: It only took Piedmont's Jamie Major one visit to Samford. But that's all it took.
Major cut his recruiting off three weeks ago despite originally planning on using the four official visits he had remaining.
"The coaches took me in, and we built a good relationship, and I feel like I can trust them," Major said. "They treated me like one of their own on my official visit."
Despite having numerous schools interested and several other offers, including one from Indiana, the linebacker was confident in his decision to remain a Bulldog at the next level.
"Coach (Pat) Sullivan said 'When you feel right, it's right,' and that's what I did," Major said. "Indiana is a great school, and I'd love to play Big Ten ball, but I think Samford is the perfect place for me."
After recording a team-leading 135 tackles, nine for a loss, and five sacks, along with getting an all-state nod for the third consecutive season, Major has a chance to start in the fall and has been preparing for summer workouts since committing.
"I'm running, lifting, trying to stay in shape until they send me their conditioning book for what they want me to do for when I go down there in the summertime," he said.
LEWIS TAPPED BY FAULKNER: Oxford's leading offensive lineman, Tim Lewis, is going to play the next four years at Faulkner.
The Eagles were the first school that recruited Lewis, and Lewis gave Oxford offensive line coach Jeremy Tapley credit for helping him develop into the player he's become.
"I think that my preparations here have prepared me for college because this is a larger high school," Lewis said. "...I just wasn't ready to hang up the shoulder pads yet, and Faulkner gave me an opportunity to go play with them. I'm just ready to go hit somebody right now."
BACK TO CAMP: Spring Garden two-way player B.J. Turner remained as faithful to Faulkner as its coaching staff remained to him.
After going to an Eagles' summer camp in 2012, Faulkner began showing interest and offered him three weeks ago after Turner graded out all season more than 85 percent while playing with ACL and meniscus tears. Despite the strong grading, Jacksonville State and Troy were more shaky about the tears and did not offer.
"Honestly, after Faulkner kept talking to me, I didn't care who else was looking at me," Turner said. "They won me over just by taking a chance with me."
After Turner is cleared in May, there's still the question of if he will play on the offensive or defensive line at Faulkner.
MOVING ON: Marquez Gamble's commitment to Lindsey Wilson College (Columbia, Ky.) came on signing day, only an hour before he made it official.
"It was a last-minute thing," he said. "I went up there last weekend, it's a five-hour drive, and I just fell in love with the place."
What the defensive lineman, who finished his senior season with 66 tackles, nine for a loss, and five sacks, loved the most about the NAIA school is it reminded him of Piedmont.
"It's small, but it's a little bit bigger," Gamble said. "And it's far away from home, so it'll give me a chance to grow up on my own, meet new people and have new experiences."
HANDLEY'S HAUL: There were no big surprises at Handley.
Led by four-star lineman Bradley Bozeman (6-5, 315), the five Tiger seniors went exactly where most thought they would.
Bozeman went to Alabama, where he's been committed for 18 months — an eternity by recruiting standards. Sedrick Tucker went to West Georgia Tech (a junior college), and Shaquan Glass, Tevin Cook and Trae Kyles all are headed to North Alabama.
With many tricks and switches that have been customary on National Signing Day, there kind of was one for Glass.
Cook, Kyles and Glass all visited the University of North Alabama together. They'd all committed together.
Then Cook and Kyles decided to have a little fun — they told Glass Thursday they'd decommitted.
Glass pumped his fist wildly when the two put on UNA's purple hat.

We are still coming to grips with the fact that Wouter Weylandt is gone. This tragic event reminds us to celebrate every moment and adventure: Even though none of us are world-class professional racers like Wouter, we all count on cycling to bring focus, optimism, and balance to our busy lives, and to give us the energy to make the most of every day. At a moment like this, it's easy to feel helpless.
But there is something you can do. Wouter's Leopard Trek team has set up a memorial fund to benefit his family and his unborn child; you can find details on the team's Facebook page. We urge you to make a donation if you can.
Now there's another way to contribute to this fund—and to honor Wouter in a more personal way. This limited-edition T-shirt from "Stomach of Anger" bears Wouter's Giro d'Italia race number, 108. The manufacturer assures us that they will donate all profits from the sale of this shirt to this fund. We thought the shirt was such a good idea that we bought 150 of them to give to the staff, our families, and our friends. If you're interested in one yourself, check out StomachofAnger.com.

Great hotel BUT.. – It's a great hotel but if any of you are looking to save some $$ then book it at goo.gl/FPxYD They have some of the best hotel deals on the web!
This budget gym trims the fat off its patrons at streamlined facilities. – The Scene
Most Ballys stick to the basics for their design. Televisions broadcast silently above multiple rows of cardio machines; mirrored walls act as the primary decorative components. But thanks to high-energy television ads and low-impact membership premiums, this national fitness chain has steadily attracted a clientele bent on saving money while losing weight or gaining muscle.
The Workout
Using fairly standard strength-training equipment and/or racks well-stocked with free weights, the best of the trainers here, who are classified at four different levels, can be as skillful as those found at costlier gyms. For group classes, signature exercise options include Spinning and Powerflex, as well as a number of patented routines inspired by Tae Kwon Do.
nicest staff – The staff took their time to help us with games we were new at and treated us like guests. A lot of the other casinos had no time for us. It did not look like much from the outside but it ended up being one of our favorites. Their drinks were pretty weak however, and there were no live poker tables.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I would highly recommend this as a Save the Date for a couple who is looking for a stylish, classic look! The quality of the paper, the printing and the design are all simply outstanding. The design services were great and delivery was prompt. I added a little blingy to make it a little pretty. I am very happy!"
"I was so impressed of the ease of personalizing them. Especially when I needed to add more information then was provided, like another line. Everything is easily manageable and there are endless possibilities on how to create exactly what you want. The actual card is the perfect size and strength. When the card came it was exactly what was shown and the colors weren't off at all! The product was supposed to come on Friday and it came on Wednesday! Everything about this was just perfect and exactly how I wanted it, even better!"
"When I saw this card I fell in love with the creativeness... and the best part is that when is sent it out to all my guests they loved it... I am still getting complimented on the card and how beautiful and creative it is. I love the grays and purples and I felt that with the Gray and purple it made it more vintage looking than anything else. I think that was a big selling point for me and it was even the colors of our Wedding... Which couldn't have been any more perfect!"
"I loved the sample that I received of this card in the baltic, but in order to make it truly match our wedding I chose to change the two colors slightly. This was so easy to do! After choosing my new background color and noting my new accent color in the comments section, I was done. In addition, I added a line of text to the bottom for our wedding website - also so simple! After receiving and reviewing a proof I was sure the product would be perfect. The designer was so great to work with and the process was seamless from start to finish. We received our cards earlier than expected with the return address pre-printed on our envelopes and couldn't be happier. I can't wait to order our matching invitation suite."
"I was more than pleased with the service from the designers. They were very professional and helpful in determining the right custom card colors to go with my wedding colors. The card itself is simple yet elegant, and we were very happy!"

Just before 4 p.m., I grabbed a quarter, took a seat on the carpet and started flipping.
Heads. Tails. Tails. Heads.
My mission: Match the Huskers. In beating Georgia in the Gator Bowl, Bo Pelini's team wrapped up win No. 9 for the sixth straight season. But mathematically, it accomplished something far more improbable.
NU won its ninth consecutive contest decided by six points or less. Coin-flip games.
The streak dates back to the 2012 Big Ten opener, when Nebraska rallied to beat Wisconsin 30-27. Since then, the Huskers have won games by one, four, six, three, three, four, three and five. This is the story of 2012-13. Close wins, big losses. Nebraska had seven double-digit losses and its average margin of defeat was 18.6. But its late-game success rate? Untouchable.
Look at every FBS team in the country. Study their results in games decided by six points or less. No one has a winning streak longer than six, Central Michigan. (Ohio State had also won six straight before losing to Clemson, 40-35, in the Orange Bowl.)
How much is skill? How much is luck? Depends on your point of view. But clearly, the Huskers don't fear the tense moments. Their streak stood at five on Halloween — then things got crazy. Hail Mary to beat Northwestern. Clutch drive to beat Michigan. Overtime field goal at Penn State. Two fourth-down stops to beat Georgia.
During the nine fourth quarters, victory odds occasionally looked better than 50/50. Occasionally they looked worse. But NU always found the right blend of poise, execution and good fortune. It's roughly the equivalent of flipping nine consecutive "Heads."
Which is what I tried to do Friday afternoon. Numerous times, I achieved six, seven, even eight straight. But No. 9 always let me down. On the 422nd flip. On the 568th. On the 578th. On the 630th. On the 907th. At 1,000, I hit a cold spell and — as my wife called the insane asylum — I grew so frustrated I almost quit.
Finally, after 54 minutes, I reached the 1,753rd flip. Heads! Nine in a row.
The Huskers worked even harder to get their nine.

Nebraska 24, Georgia 19, Jan. 1, 2014
Entering the fourth quarter: 24-12 Nebraska
Husker win probability dropped as low as: 51 percent.
Defining moment: Twice Georgia penetrated the NU red zone in the final five minutes. Twice the Blackshirts forced a turnover on downs, stirring memories of the Gator Bowl five years ago against Clemson.
At its bleakest point: Momentum was slipping away late in the third quarter. Nebraska was stuck on its 1-foot line, third-and-14. Was this the start of another second-half bowl collapse? No. Tommy Armstrong and Quincy Enunwa connected for a 99-yard touchdown, giving Nebraska a 24-12 lead.
Catching a break: The final fourth-down pass hit Georgia tight end Arthur Lynch in the hands. But a more subtle stroke of luck came when NU was backed up on its goal line. Officials blew the whistle to review the previous play, giving Tim Beck and Bo Pelini time to call a deep pass.
Making their own luck: Georgia ran 23 more plays and had 109 more yards, but Nebraska played a cleaner game. The defense tackled well and the offense committed just one turnover on a sloppy day.
What victory meant: A sixth consecutive nine-win season, a bowl win over an SEC traditional power and — most important — a source of optimism entering the offseason.
Nebraska 23, Penn State 20, Nov. 23, 2013
Entering the fourth quarter: 17-13 Nebraska
Husker win probability dropped as low as: 25 percent.
Defining moment: Pat Smith, who was kicking at Western Illinois a year earlier, split the uprights from 42 yards in overtime, the first walk-off field goal since Josh Brown (Colorado 2000).
At its bleakest point: Tie game. Third-and-14. Nebraska backed up to its 1-yard line. Sound familiar? With 1:22 left, Bo Pelini knew a punt would've handed Penn State the ball in Husker territory needing just a field goal to win. So just as he did a month later in Jacksonville, he took his chances deep and Quincy Enunwa drew a pass interference.
Catching a break: Sam Ficken missed a 37-yard field goal in overtime, but his biggest error came in the first quarter when he missed an extra point. Had he connected, the Huskers may have lost in regulation.
Making their own luck: The Huskers had their own bad break when officials flagged Sam Burtch for unnecessary roughness, wiping out Ameer Abdullah's fourth-down touchdown run. The defense helped overcome it, keeping Penn State out of scoring range on its final three regulation drives.
What victory meant: Nebraska could've folded after a deflating home loss to Michigan State. Winning in Happy Valley was another positive step for the defense — and another scrapbook page for Ron Kellogg.
Nebraska 17, Michigan 13, Nov. 9, 2013
Win probabilities were calculated by Paul Bessire, general manager of PredictionMachine.com, an advanced statistical site dedicated to thorough football analysis.
Entering the fourth quarter: 10-10
Husker win probability dropped as low as: 26 percent.
Defining moment: Individual drives don't get much sweeter than Nebraska's 14-play, 75-yard march late in the fourth quarter. On third and goal, Tommy Armstrong improvised and pitched to Ameer Abdullah, who dove over the goal line for the lead.
At its bleakest point: Earlier on the drive, NU faced fourth-and-2 at the Michigan 31. With 3:25 left, there was no margin for error, especially when Tim Beck checked to an out route from right hash to left sideline. Armstrong completed it to Kenny Bell, who dodged a tackle and took it to the Michigan 5.
Catching a break: Michigan's offensive futility inspired boos from the home crowd.
Making their own luck: Two key defensive stands — one after Jordan Westerkamp muffed a punt, the other after Abdullah's touchdown — proved that this wasn't the NU defense we saw at Minnesota.
What victory meant: Michigan hadn't lost at home since Rich Rodriguez was coach in 2010. More important, it kept Nebraska's division hopes alive.
Nebraska 27, Northwestern 24, Nov. 2, 2013
Entering the fourth quarter: 21-21
Husker win probability dropped as low as: 14 percent (seems a bit too high, doesn't it?)
Defining moment: Perhaps the greatest roar in Memorial Stadium history — a 49-yard Hail Mary completion from Ron Kellogg to Jordan Westerkamp.
At its bleakest point: The obvious choice is right before the Hail Mary. But how about fourth-and-15 from the Nebraska 24 just moments earlier? Kellogg found Ameer Abdullah, who escaped a tackle and reached successfully for the first down, giving the Huskers hope.
Catching a break: Who knows how long Pat Fitzgerald lay awake wondering why at least one defender didn't stay in the end zone with Westerkamp? Or why he didn't blitz Kellogg.
Making their own luck: Abdullah's play is the classic example of extra effort. But don't forget the defense rising up and forcing a field goal after Northwestern intercepted Tommy Armstrong and took over at the Husker 7-yard line.
What victory meant: A week after losing at Minnesota, Nebraska appeared to be running on fumes when it fell behind 21-7 in the second quarter. A loss here and NU morale may have plummeted. But the Blackshirts turned it around just in time, a huge confidence boost for the stretch run.
Nebraska 37, Wyoming 34, Aug. 31, 2013
Entering the fourth quarter: 31-21 Nebraska
Husker win probability dropped as low as: 69 percent.
Defining moment: A game that should've been over when NU took a 37-21 lead was still in doubt after two Husker turnovers and two Wyoming touchdowns. The Cowboys, who finished with 602 total yards, got the ball back with 1:07 left, but Nebraska forced two holding penalties and Wyoming ran out of time.
At its bleakest point: The Huskers were never in serious danger, but as bad as the secondary played in the fourth quarter, giving Brett Smith one last chance — even 94 yards from the end zone — was risky.
Catching a break: Wyoming had momentum and a hot quarterback early in the fourth when a trick play — a wide receiver pass — turned disastrous. Trey Norman underthrew the ball and Ciante Evans picked it off.
Making their own luck: The Husker offense didn't meet expectations, but it still generated 37 points and 530 total yards.
What victory meant: NU won its 28th straight season opener, but the close call put immediate pressure on Bo Pelini and John Papuchis to fix the defense.
Nebraska 13, Iowa 7, Nov. 23, 2012
Score entering the fourth quarter: 13-7 Nebraska
Husker win probability dropped as low as: 46 percent.
Defining moment: With 2:25 left, Iowa still had a shot. But on first down at the Hawkeye 39, Alonzo Whaley jumped a short route and intercepted James Vandenberg's pass.
At its bleakest point: NU trailed 7-3 at halftime, but the most ominous moment came with 12:03 left in the game. Leading 13-7, the Huskers took over on their 1-yard line facing a stiff Iowa defense and a merciless north wind. Rex Burkhead, hampered by injury most of the season, responded with two inspired runs, moving NU out of trouble.
Catching a break: Iowa's offensive inefficiency (and conservatism) ruined a promising second quarter. The Hawks had the ball inside the NU 40 on three possessions. They didn't score a single point.
Making their own luck: Say what you want about Iowa's '12 offense, but after half the Husker D allowed 70 total yards and no points on seven Hawkeye possessions.
What victory meant: A 10-2 regular season, the extension of a six-game winning streak, a ticket to Indianapolis and, of course, bragging rights for a year.
Nebraska 28, Michigan State 24, Nov. 3, 2012
Entering the fourth quarter: 17-14 Michigan State
Husker win probability dropped as low as: 7 percent.
Defining moment: With six seconds left and NU trailing 24-21, Taylor Martinez hit Jamal Turner in the corner of the end zone.
At its bleakest point: There were plenty to choose from. But none bleaker than a fourth-and-10 with 40 seconds left on Nebraska's 42-yard line. Facing one of the nation's best defenses on its home turf, Martinez found Kyler Reed for 38 yards, putting NU in scoring position.
Catching a break: Nebraska caught two big ones. The first came early in the fourth when Darqueze Dennard's 96-yard interception return was called back because of a personal foul during the return. Then, on third-and-10 in the final 25 seconds, Dennard was flagged for pass interference in the end zone, giving NU first-and-goal at the 5.
Making their own luck: On three fourth-quarter possessions, Michigan State's offense recorded one first down against the Blackshirts.
What victory meant: Trailing by two scores with eight minutes left for the second time in three weeks, Martinez stepped up again. For the day, he rushed for 205 yards against the Big Ten's top run defense. He threw for 160 and NU stayed in first place in the Legends.
Nebraska 29, Northwestern 28, Oct. 20, 2012
Entering the fourth quarter: 21-16 Northwestern
Husker win probability dropped as low as: Data wasn't available for this game, but based on a similar scenario at Michigan State, we can estimate 5 percent.
Defining moment: Northwestern missed a 53-yard field goal with 1:10 left.
At its bleakest point: The Wildcats went ahead 28-16 with 8:31 left. Since 1964, the Huskers hadn't rallied from a deficit so big with so little time remaining.
Catching a break: On the ensuing drive, Taylor Martinez threw into traffic on consecutive plays. Twice Northwestern dropped potential interceptions. Had the Wildcats corralled either ball, NU would've been sunk.
Making their own luck: Following the two incompletions, Martinez caught fire. He was 5-for-6, including a touchdown to Taariq Allen. The next drive, he went 5-for-5 and his 7-yarder to Ben Cotton gave Nebraska the lead.
What victory meant: This was right after a 63-38 embarrassment at Ohio State. Right after Bo Pelini's "win out" proclamation. A loss at Northwestern would've put the season in peril. Instead, Nebraska got a jolt and Martinez (407 total yards, no turnovers) secured his finest game since 2010.
Nebraska 30, Wisconsin 27, Sept. 29, 2012
Entering the fourth quarter: 27-27
Husker win probability dropped as low as: 14 percent.
Defining moment: Alonzo Whaley and the defense stuffed Wisconsin on fourth-and-1 at midfield with 1:11 left.
At the bleakest point: The Badgers forced a Taylor Martinez fumble early in the third quarter and quickly grabbed a 27-10 lead. Martinez responded with one of his best performances of the season, leading three long scoring drives to tie.
Catching a break: Ameer Abdullah fumbled early in the fourth at the Husker 21-yard line. Martinez not only picked it up, he advanced it 9 yards for a first down.
Making their own luck: The Blackshirts, who looked dreadful before half in their alternate uniforms, recorded five straight stops to finish the game. Baker Steinkuhler's hit on Joel Stave forced the quarterback to the sideline for the final possession.
What victory meant: The Huskers couldn't afford to fall to 3-2 with a road trip to Ohio State looming. In a division-winning season, this first conference win may have been the biggest.
Obviously, Nebraska's seven double-digit losses detract from its hot streak in close games. Had the Huskers scored a late touchdown against Minnesota, for instance, they would've lost by four points, ending the streak. So in a strange way, the streak is both a reflection of their perseverance and an illustration of their fragility against good teams. But this we can safely say: Opponents would be wise to finish off the Huskers in the first 55 minutes. Let them hang around and they'll find a way to win.
For the record, let's take the Huskers' nine win probabilities at the five-minute mark of the fourth quarter. What are the odds of going 9-0?
Roughly 1 in 500.

Rated 1 out of 5 by DD51 Too big I love this pattern, it is perfect for my new kitchen that I just finished remodeling.

Undefeated Bethel Park netters head into big week of action
For the past three years, Bethel Park has not kept individual statistics on its volleyball players. Head coach Tom Allman believes this is the reason why the Black Hawks have been successful.
This spring is proving no different. The Hawks are 9-0 overall. They reached the semifinals in the Deer Lakes and Fox Chapel tournaments. In addition, Bethel is undefeated in Section 1 action against the likes of Baldwin, Canon-McMillan, Central Catholic, Moon, Peters Township and Upper St. Clair.
The Hawks host the Indians April 25 and visit the Panthers April 30 in key clashes this week. PT won the Fox Chapel tournament.
"To be able to continue on our winning ways and achieve our team goals," Allman emphasized, "We must be disciplined, continue to pass the ball well enough to run our offense and to commit to our team defense."
These objectives, Allman says, will put the Hawks in a position to make a run at the section title as well as give them a shot at a Final Four appearance in the WPIAL Class AAA championships. The tournament commences May 14 and concludes with the finals May 24 at La Roche College.
Allman has used a blend of nine players to fashion a winner.
Freshman Jake Dixon joins seniors Cam Hay and Aaron Glasser at the outside hitter position. Dixon towers over at 6-feet-3 while Hay is 6-2 and Glasser an even 6-foot.
Bobby Huntington, a 6-4 senior, and Brandon Hanson, a 6-3 junior, anchors the middle while Grant Underwood dominates the opposite side hitter. The 6-4 senior was All-WPIAL last season.
While senior Vance Blanc handles the setting, Danny Burke, a 6-0 junior, and Luke Hudson, a 5-8 senior, are the Hawks' defensive specialists. Allman has been pleased with their "extraordinary" play.
Alexander Kiselica and Ryan Petrossi are defensive specialists as well. The seniors also lend leadership to the club.
Juniors Lenny Chorney, Werner Hernandez and Nicholas Pilotta strengthen the hitter positions on the squad.
The team sports four sophomores, giving BP added depth at a variety of positions. The 10th graders are: Noah Blanc, a setter and liberio; David Uhlmann, a liberio; and hitters, Steven Eiben and Nathan Harrold.
Brandon Thorsen, like Dixon, is a newcomer to the varsity. The freshman setter completes the roster.

USA TodayAndroid 'poised to fail' vs. iPads
By Scott Martin, USA TODAY
Updated 1d 1h ago |
Apple's iPad fares better among potential buyers of tablet computers than do tablets based on versions of Google's Android operating system, according to a recent survey by tech research firm Forrester.
The Google Android stand at the recent Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain.
Price topped consumers' interests when asked which features were most important. Battery life came next, followed by operating system preference. The report points out that Samsung's Galaxy tablet was originally priced at $600 without a mobile contract; Motorola's Xoom goes for $800 untethered. Those compare with $499 for an iPad.
"This is about price, retail channel, and it's about brand marketing. Apple's competitors really have to step it up in those areas to contend," says Forrester analyst Sarah Rotman Epps. Unless they do, "Android tablets are poised to fail," the report says. Forrester surveyed 4,784 people online in the U.S. for the report.
Motorola, Samsung and Google declined to comment.
Some consumers agree with Forrester's results. "Motorola's Xoom price is so crazy," says Brett Torrey Hanes, 40, of Santa Rosa, Calif. Rick Friesen, 55, from Billings, Mt., says he was really intrigued when he first saw the Motorola Xoom. "But then I saw the price." He says he'll likely go for the new iPad. "I've never been an Apple person, but the iPad 2 looks like a solid machine."
Retail presence also plays big with consumers. Top places for people to buy tablets was at electronics stores such as Best Buy and Apple. Low on the list was from wireless providers.
"If you go into a Verizon store, the Galaxy tablets are in the back of the store collecting dust," Rotman Epps says. "If you go into an Apple Store, the tablets are front and center, and it's an exciting environment."
"I don't even like going into Verizon's stores. That experience is getting antiquated," Hanes says.
Tablet makers will also have a tough sell differentiating brands at stores such as Best Buy, where devices sit on shelves with similar models, she says.

30 Under 30 honoree Kristen Kish has so far been doing well on Bravo's Top Chef, and last night was no different. The 28-year-old chef de cuisine at Stir, a Barbra Lynch school and demonstration kitchen in the South End, came away one of the winners, again. That gives her a total of $45,000 in winnings and a chance to advance to the Restaurant Wars on next week's episode (Wednesday, January 16). Stay tuned!
Each time Kish has advanced, she's been "happily surprised," according to an interview with the Boston Business Journal.
Born in Seoul, Korea, Kish grew up in Michigan and graduated from Le Cordon Bleu Chicago.

Although the characters are drawn to look like young elementary students, apparently they're 6th graders. Still young, but that's part of the comedy. They way they act is completely bizarre for their age. The three sisters and the teacher are the main characters here. Of the sisters, the youngest is a ...Read more
Not a kiddie show for sure!If you look at the picture they show you you would be making a mistake seeing the little girls and thinking this is for kids far from it! I've seen many comedies that barely got a laugh out me or a chuckle or two this one had me more than once laughing out loud sure it was low-brow comedy but as a fan of the three stooges that's right up my alley:). This series was well done on just about all ...Read more

This series is full of interesting and cute characters so you'll never be bored with them.

Kind of crazy, and a lot of fun!Perfect series to unwind to. Nothing serious, it's just a ton of fun and easy to watch.Read more
There is no plot, no deeper story; the series mostly revolves around the three sisters, some of their classmates, their teacher and their father. At first glance the series give off some 'lolicon' vibes, but this is actually just part of the comedy, which is great by the way, not the best that I've seen ...
Wonderfully idiotic.Awesome show to watch if you want something absurd and funny. Fans of shows like Shin-Chan will like this. If anything, at least watch S2 EP1 if you were a Power Rangers fan growing up :3 My boyfriend wasn't into this show but that episode had him rolling.

What the heck did I just watch? Why did I love watching it?This show is about a family of triplets. A selfish, stuckup girl, a dark, mature girl, and a delightful girl that's just odd. Throw in a teacher that can't catch a break, a father that's misunderstood, and students that are oddballs, you get a show that's pretty much a comedy showing how middle school really is.

The Have-To-Have-It Backpack Getting Love From Jessica Alba & More
Much like the Tibi splatter-paint skirt and Kenzo sweatshirts, backpacks became an overnight obsession. We blinked, and suddenly everyone was carrying the grade school throwback. There is a wealth of cool versions available, but one style is getting all the attention: Simone Camille's coin-embellished Backpack ($890). If Jessica Alba approves, so do we!

Back in the mid-1970s, the Reno Advertising Club brought two heavyweights to a dinner at John Ascuaga's Nugget.
Financial guru Armstrong Elliott was busy at the time trying to save New York City from bankruptcy. His brother, Jock, former editor of Reader's Digest, headed Ogilvy & Mather, one of the world's largest ad agencies.
Jock Elliott was asked if advertising messages had to be tailored differently to various cultures and locales. Surprisingly, his answer was no.
"People are people everywhere you go," he stated, "and the one thing they are most interested in is themselves."
Elliott noted that each month, Reader's Digest mailed three communities in various parts of the country an offer of free advance copies of articles from an upcoming edition. All people had to do was check off the three most-attractive titles. Grocery store copies of the magazine would then carry an outside sticker promoting the three top stories.
"One month, an article on how to lose weight was far and away number one. How to cut the fat out of the federal budget was number 50 out of 50," Elliott said.
Media-saturated America has devolved to a point that a dangerously high percentage of the citizenry is susceptible to a well-marketed, self-centered lie.
On Jan. 26, the Reno Gazette-Journal devoted two full pages to Nevada's shortage of doctors.
But didn't the Nevada State Medical Association's 2004 ballot question solve that problem? Remember the TV commercials showing long lines of whitecoats walking down a lonely desert highway, supposedly leaving Nevada because of the depredations of trial lawyers?
Former Tribune reporter Dennis Myers wrote a very detailed Reno News & Review article demonstrating how the supposed medical malpractice insurance crisis was manufactured by the medical lobby and propagated by lazy media.
Voters bought the doctors' PR and imposed a stingy cap on pain and suffering damages. Thanks to that creative lie, Nevada lawyers are loathe to pursue money-losing malpractice litigation. The butchered are oft-abandoned while law firms now subject us to all those pesky TV spots hustling car accident cases.
Woebetide thee once the legit media buy into a lie. Just ask Lani Guinier, who speaks at 7 p.m. Wednesday at UNR. (Admission free.)
In 1993, President Clinton nominated her as assistant attorney general for civil rights but threw her under the bus after the Wall Street Journal labeled her a "quota queen." It was an absolute falsehood but the label stuck and Clinton bailed on Harvard's first tenured African-American female law professor.
So before you believe today's spin that Obamacare will cost two million jobs, read more than headlines.
The health of the truth is always endangered. Get selfish.
Esté bien. Haga infierno. Be well. Raise hell.

Well, it's a week late for the $587.5 million jackpot, but someone is $50 million richer after buying a Powerball ticket in Bucks County.
The winning ticket from the Dec. 5 drawing was sold at Levittown News & Tobacco, located on the 411 South Oxford Valley Road, in Fairless Hills, according to a Pennsylvania Lottery news release.
The ticket matched the five white balls, 13-17-19-27-38, as well as the red Powerball 12, to win the $50 million annuity.
Or, the winner could opt to take the cash prize, which is worth over $33 million, less a 25-percent federal withholding.
The Levittown store gets a $100,000 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
Pennsylvania Lottery Powerball winners have one year from the drawing date to claim prizes. Lottery officials can't confirm the winner's identity until the prize is claimed and the ticket is validated.
If you won, you should sign the back of the ticket, call the lottery at 717-702-8146 and file a claim at lottery headquarters or one of its area offices.
Pennsylvania has sold 16 jackpot-winning tickets since joining Powerball, but this is the first since a group of SEPTA employees won $107.5 million back in April.

Advanced Corrosion Protection
Riptide motors are impervious to saltwater's corrosive effects, thanks to premium-grade marine alloys and aluminum upper arms. Metals undergo a rigid multi-step cleaning process before being anodized or coated with a special zinc dichromate armor plating. All components are then finished with a durable 5-mil TGIC polyester, powder coat paint. When it's all done, you're left with unequaled corrosion protection.
Full Encapsulated Electronics
Marine-grade urethane fully encapsulates Riptide control boards to protect the electronic circuitry. Also, all electrical connections are sealed with liquid-tight heat shrink tubing to form an impregnable barrier against saltwater.
Sacrificial Anode
Galvanic corrosion occurs when two dissimilar metals come into electrical contact through saltwater. Riptide fights back with a sacrificial zinc anode, a composite shaft and properly balanced materials that are close in electrical potential. The result is a motor that's completely protected from saltwater's destructive forces.
Indestructible Composite Shaft - Guaranteed For Life!
Pound for pound, our composite shaft is stronger than steel. It flexes on impact and won't break, kink or corrode. That's why we're confident enough to make it the only trolling motor shaft that's guaranteed for life.

Gymnastics Travels to Illinois on Sunday
Courtesy: CMU Athletic Communications
Release: 02/21/2014
The Chippewas (9-1, 3-1 Mid-American Conference) look to rebound after suffering a 0.025 loss to rival Kent State last Sunday.
Illinois gymnastics is currently ranked No. 14 nationally and No. 3 in the Big Ten. Under head coach Kim Landrus, Illinois hit their sixth highest score in program history at Penn State last weekend with a 196.500. Illinois senior Amber See is ranked No. 36 nationally on all-around, setting a career-high with a 39.350 against Minnesota. Junior Sunny Kato is ranked No. 2 on beam in the league and No.12 in the nation, setting a career-high with a 9.900. Erin Buchanan, a freshman for the Fighting Illini, ranks No. 5 in the Big Ten and No. 29 nationally on floor exercise.
Illinois gymnastics is currently 5-3 overall and 2-3 in conference action.
No. 23 Ohio State is led by head coach Carey Fagan and is 2-5 overall, 1-3 in the Big Ten. The Buckeyes return seniors Melanie Shaffer and Sarah Miller. Shaffer is ranked No. 40 in the all-around in the nation and No. 8 in the Big Ten for all-around and floor. Miller ranks No. 5 on beam and No. 7 on vault in the conference. Underclassmen Rachel Abrams and Tenille Funches are tied for No. 11 in the Big Ten on bars for the Buckeyes.
Central Michigan Notes:
- Central Michigan gymnastics ranks No. 19 in the nation. The Chippewas have a No. 14 national ranking on both floor and beam, just behind Illinois who is nationally ranked No. 13 on floor and No. 10 on beam. The Chippewas hold the No. 24 spot on bars and No. 29 ranking on vault nationally.
- Despite the 0.025-point loss against rival Kent State, the Chippewas were still able to post season highs on two events on Sunday. After a three-way tie for second between Emily Heinz, Taylor Noonan and Becca Druien, CMU was able to pull off a season-high on beam with a 49.300. The Chippewas finished off the meet with sophomore Taylor Bolender (9.925) leading the way to help post another season high on floor (49.350).
- Central Michigan gymnasts are currently ranked first on every event in the Mid-American Conference in terms of average score. Senior Brittany Petzold ranks No. 1 in the all-around, on bars and on vault. Junior Halle Moraw is ranked No. 1 on floor, while fellow teammate Taylor Noonan has the top ranking on beam.
- For the first time in her career, CMU gymnast Taylor Bolender was honored by the Mid-American Conference as she was named the Specialist of the Week. Bolender posted a personal best and took first-place on floor with a 9.925 against Kent State, matching the MAC's highest score this season on the event. She also had another top 3 finish, taking third on bars with a 9.825.

I know this will come as a shock to all of you here, but once again my holds account is full and I can't put any of your lovely recommendations on hold. Tomorrow or Saturday we'll head to the library to pick some up and make some space in my acount.
I had this one out from the library and DH started it and didn't love it so I took it back, since it was on hold for someone else, but I may need to pick it back up if you enjoyed it...
#3 Unwind by Neal Shusterman
not quite finished, but I've really enjoyed it.
from amazon:
The Doom Machine by Mark Teague
This was a middle-grade novel -- quite long and involved however and very fun in a retro, sci-fi way. It takes place in the 50's where a mechanically-minded juvenile deliquent boy and a logically-minded scientists daughter girl have to save the earth from the spiderish aliens from Skreepia who want to take over the earth. It reminded me a bit of A Wrinkle in Time as they travel to over planets and meet some interesting aliens and cultures. Fun book once you get into it.
#3 Unwind by Neal Shusterman
not quite finished, but I've really enjoyed it.
from amazon:
|In a society where unwanted teens are salvaged for their body parts, three runaways fight the system that would "unwind" them.
Connor's parents want to be rid of him because he's a troublemaker. Risa has no parents and is being unwound to cut orphanage costs. Lev's unwinding has been planned since his birth, as part of his family's strict religion. Brought together by chance, and kept together by desperation, these three unlikely companions make a harrowing cross-country journey, knowing their lives hang in the balance. If they can survive until theireighteenth birthday, they can't be harmed -- but when every piece of them, from their hands to their hearts, are wanted by a world gone mad, eighteen seems far, far away.

Celtics Morning Joe: Feeling like this could be KG's last season
|Posted by shawn cassidy on April 3, 2013 at 5:00 AM
I could be jumping to conclusions on this post, but with KG breaking down towards the end of this season. It leaves me wondering if these could be KG's last games. If it's not this season. I think next season will be his last season. I don't see Kevin playing the third year on his contract. With the recent news that KG has a bone spur, it's bad news when your talking about a guy like KG.
"Honestly, he's fine," Rivers said. "It's a bone something, a bone spur that just needs to relax and calm down. I think that's what it is. It's his ankle. If we were in the playoffs tonight, Kevin would absolutely be playing."
Ray Allen had the same issue last season, and we know how that turned out. He was gone for the first round series against the Hawks, and he came in around the same time Bradley went out in the Philly series. Ray was a shell of himself during the playoffs. This injury to me could be the basketball gods demanding that the Celtics are stopped this year. My personal feelings about this team and season has changed so many times. We've seen many forms of this team before and after the Rondo injury. I feel like this team is a day late, and a dollar short this season. But I also know this team still has the guts and grit to shock all of us.
I think most of us are worried until we see KG return. We know some incidents in the past where the Celtics don't tell us the truth about injuries. KG of course in 2009 is the biggest in this era of C's basketball. With KG out again on the eve of the playoffs it leaves us all with a nasty pit in our stomachs. KG seems like the type of guy that sitting the bench is not an option. Playing a P.J Brown type of role is not in the cards for a guy who's a future hall of fame player. I hope the Celtics learned a lesson this season if KG does return next year. They can't play him so much in the early part of the season. They need to space him out,and rest him all season. If KG thinks this is it. Will get every ounce of him in this years playoffs, and that can make for a powerful run for the Celtics.
