It has come time you learn to differentiate between your Steve Smiths.
I tend to note when mentioning Steve Smith's name on these pages which one I'm talking about -- Steve Smith the Panther or Steve Smith the Giant -- but these days, it's difficult to tell them apart. That's especially true now that the one who has been the fantasy stud through four weeks is the Giants' version!
With a 25-point fantasy performance in Week 4, tops among wide receivers entering the Sunday night contest, "Smith the Giant" captured the lead in fantasy points at his position: He has 64 for the season (16 per game). Compare that to Smith the Panther: That top-10 fantasy wide receiver (and third-round pick) has only 18 fantasy points in three games (six per).
Not that it's entirely fair to compare the two. After all, Smith the Panther has an aging, erratic Jake Delhomme sagging his numbers. Eli Manning, meanwhile, has the New York Giants off to a torrid start. Ask most people and they'll tell you they'd probably prefer to own the Panther, not the Giant, if only based upon track record.
Still, might not Smith the Giant be able to give Smith the Panther a run for his money? While the Panthers' version had 37 targets through his first three games (12.3 per week), second only to Randy Moss, the Giants' version now has 45 through four games, or an average of 11.3 per week. We've long known Delhomme loves throwing to his version of Steve Smith; what has become evident through four weeks of 2009 is that Manning feels the same about his. Heck, here's a telling statistic: In 2007, Plaxico Burress' final 16-game season working with Manning, his quarterback targeted him an average of 8.8 times per contest.
Yes, the case can be made that Smith can't possibly maintain a full-season pace of 180 targets, 136 receptions, 1,644 receiving yards and 16 touchdowns, and that opposing defenses will surely catch on to Manning's game plan. But with a better-than-advertised set of receivers working alongside Smith -- Hakeem Nicks' healthy return this week was a big boost -- constantly double-teaming him won't be a winning strategy. A 1,200-yard, 12- to 14-score campaign might be more realistic, but fantasy owners would take it. In fact, that might qualify as the year's biggest breakout.
Tristan's MVP
Few people took a chance on the San Francisco 49ers' defense in a spot-start opportunity, but those who did in Week 4 were handsomely rewarded. Practically unowned coming out of most drafts, the 49ers were added in 20.5 percent of ESPN leagues in the past week, raising their ownership percentage to 29.5 percent, and owners in only 11.0 percent of leagues were bold enough to start them.
So how did the Niners fare?
Oh, they only posted a big, juicy doughnut (love those shutouts), and grabbed one interception and two fumble recoveries, with all three of those turnovers being returned for touchdowns. Patrick Willis was a one-man wrecking crew, recording five tackles, 2½ sacks and an interception returned 23 yards for one of the scores. Even Ray McDonald and Scott McKillop stepped up with key plays. Things won't be quite so easy for the 49ers in upcoming matchups versus the Atlanta Falcons (Week 5) and Indianapolis Colts (Week 8), but against thinner offenses, this defense is well worth a matchups look.
Four up
I'm full of excitement about the following four players based upon the week's results, and recommend you stick with or trade for them.
• Steve Slaton: As I noted in last week's "Instant Replay," Chris Brown shouldn't have received another goal-line carry for the Houston Texans, and in Week 4 he didn't; Brown didn't even sniff the field Sunday. Instead, Slaton got 23 touches and totaled 89 yards and two scores, stepping up right at the time the matchups said he'd need to begin to. By the way, if you're worried about Ryan Moats' 15 carries cutting into Slaton's future workload, don't be; 11 of those came in the third and fourth quarters after the Texans had mounted a 23-point lead.
• David Garrard and Mike Sims-Walker: What a rapport these two seem to have, and when the matchup tilts in their favor, it's nice to see them stepping up with week-leading fantasy efforts. Garrard managed 323 yards and three touchdowns passing for a career-best 27 fantasy points, while Sims-Walker posted a third consecutive game of at least nine targets and six receptions (he has 30 and 19 total in those contests), facing a Tennessee Titans pass defense down Cortland Finnegan and Vincent Fuller. I said a couple of weeks back that I doubted these two would be reliable every-week fantasy plays, but they're looking fairly close to being that now, what with their defense still susceptible to big plays and thereby forcing the Jaguars to the air fairly often. Amazingly, Sims-Walker is still available in more than 60 percent of ESPN leagues; Garrard is a free agent in just more than 30 percent.
• New Orleans Saints defense: The other defense that warranted fantasy attention in Week 4, the Saints gave the 49ers a run for their money as my MVP choice, thanks to a whopping 28 fantasy points, their third consecutive week in double digits. Free-agent acquisition Darren Sharper has paid huge dividends for this defense, with five interceptions in four games, including one returned 99 yards for a touchdown versus the New York Jets.
• Brandon Marshall: Seemingly in Josh McDaniels' doghouse for the entire preseason and the first two weeks of the regular season, Marshall has now caught a touchdown pass in back-to-back weeks, including a game-winning 51-yard catch in the fourth quarter. That'll probably endear him even more to McDaniels, and it's not like his coach was ever in denial that Marshall brings skills to rival that of any receiver in football. Consider the preseason top-10 receiver back to that value level.
Four down
Be it because of poor performance, role change or injury, these four players I'm downgrading, looking to trade or cutting based on the week's results:
• Jason Campbell: Two touchdowns is nice, and so is a 16-13 comeback victory that brought his Washington Redskins back to an even 2-2 record, but let's not ignore the fact Campbell, for the most part, looked terrible in Week 4. He turned the ball over four times -- three of those interceptions against a Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense with worlds of problems in the secondary -- and completed only 12 of 22 passes. If Campbell can't capitalize upon matchups like these, what hope is there for him to be a reliable stand-in for fantasy owners in any week?
• Darren McFadden: OK, how about if I just call this one the entire Oakland Raiders team? The Raiders' offense looked dreadful, as it has for much of the season, especially troublesome considering McFadden and the running game was facing such a cakewalk matchup. Instead, "Run DMC" flopped for minus-3 yards on six carries, while Justin Fargas ran the ball a team-high 10 times. I'm not forecasting a changing of the guard at the position in Oakland -- much of this was a result of the Houston Texans stacking the box often -- but if you're a McFadden owner, let's just say you can't be optimistic about his immediate future.
• Mario Manningham: A couple of things bothered me about his performance. For one, he committed too many costly drops. For another, Hakeem Nicks was healthy and played, and even had a pretty, 54-yard touchdown reception on a screen pass. Plus, tight end Kevin Boss lined up frequently as the No. 3 receiver. It seems to me Eli Manning is looking Steve Smith first and a committee second, one that might either rotate big weeks from Manningham, Nicks and Boss (and heck, maybe even a healthy Domenik Hixon eventually), or worse, divide up the number of targets almost evenly among the bunch.
• Tony Romo: Boy, could I have been more wrong about this guy? Apparently Romo's Week 1 outburst was entirely a product of a favorable matchup; since his shredding of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' defense in the season opener, he has posted three consecutive stinkers, totaling 637 yards, one touchdown pass and four interceptions. It's impossible to claim that Terrell Owens' departure hasn't had an adverse effect on his numbers; it almost certainly has. Roy E. Williams, the Dallas Cowboys' de facto No. 1 wide receiver, has shown practically no rapport with Romo, meaning this slump might be far from over.
Injury report
For the latest injury updates, check back for Stephania Bell's analysis throughout the week and keep tabs on the Monday news conferences.
• Devin Hester (shoulder): He was knocked from the game on a touchdown-preventing tackle in the second quarter, departing with zero catches on the day. Curses, the dreaded zero-point day shortened by injury! Hester's status wasn't immediately known after the game.
• Johnny Knox (leg): The other big problem in Chicago, as Knox departed the Bears' Week 4 contest later in the game, and like Hester, his status wasn't immediately known after the game. If the Bears are down both receivers in Week 6, Earl Bennett will be asked to take a big step forward in the offense, and Rashied Davis might even be forced into the starting lineup.
• Ravens left tackle Jared Gaither (head/neck): One of the more brutal injuries of Week 4, Gaither was taken off the field on a stretcher after colliding with quarterback Joe Flacco in the second quarter. Postgame reports had Gaither showing movement in his extremities at a local hospital, but don't be surprised if he misses a few games. The fantasy significance? Gaither protects Flacco's blind side; if he's out, Michael Oher shifts to left tackle with Marshal Yanda at right tackle, which downgrades the Ravens' pass protection somewhat. Case in point: Both of Flacco's sacks and his interception in Week 4 came after Gaither's departure.
• Eli Manning (bruised heel): This one appeared minor; Manning seemed to have no trouble walking across the field during postgame celebrations, and he was yanked primarily because at the time, the Giants held a 27-3 lead. Still, any foot problem bears watching, so keep tabs on the team's Monday news conference.
It's safe to say that
• Having Chad Henne under center doesn't mean fantasy death for Miami Dolphins players. No, the Dolphins won't face as sorry of a defense as that of the Buffalo Bills most weeks, but Henne showed in his first career start that he's a capable game manager, completing 14 of 22 passes for 115 yards without an interception. Clearly he's capable of handing the ball off to either Ronnie Brown or Ricky Williams, both of whom ran for 85-plus yards and at least one score, meaning that Brown might not be that bad a weekly fantasy play in the Henne era after all.
• Mark Sanchez is far from perfect. The rookie quarterback might have impressed with victories in each of his first three career starts, an NFL first, but a trip to New Orleans brought him back to earth. He completed only 14 of 27 passes and was picked off three times, one of which Darren Sharper took back 99 yards for a touchdown. We constantly caution you about the up-and-down life of a rookie quarterback, and Sanchez did flash hints of his dreadful turnover potential in Week 3. He'll need to be smarter controlling the football in future weeks to recapture his previous success, but there's no denying he belongs in an NFL lineup. With a few adjustments, Sanchez can yet regain "start-for-favorable-matchups" status.
• Dick Jauron's running back-by-committee was every bit as advertised. Jauron cautioned us that he planned a near-even split of the workload between hot-starting Fred Jackson and fresh-off-suspension Marshawn Lynch and, sure enough, in Week 4 Jackson got nine carries and 12 total touches, while Lynch had eight carries and 13 total touches. Unfortunately, the pair totaled only 46 yards on those 17 rushing attempts, for a miserable 2.7 yards-per-carry average. For so long as this arrangement sticks, you can't trust either back facing a stout run defense.
• Julius Jones is maddening with his level of inconsistency. Yes, his Seattle Seahawks got utterly blown out by the Indianapolis Colts, rendering him a nonfactor, but given the work he received, I expect better than a 2.3 yards-per-carry average against that battered defense. Jones has now alternated strong fantasy performances with terrible ones, with this one playing in the opposite direction of his matchup. So far he seems like a home/road split player, so at least maybe he'll bounce back in Week 5 at home versus the Jaguars.
One play makes your day
A fantasy sleeper in each of the previous two weeks, Jacoby Jones returned to his more traditional special-teams role in Week 4, and as a receiver he garnered only one target and one reception (a 6-yarder). But for the third consecutive week, he managed at least six fantasy points -- a serviceable total -- because he returned a kick 95 yards for a touchdown, on a kickoff that came directly following a safety by the Texans' defense. Don't be so swift to add Jones thinking that his 27 fantasy points in Weeks 2-4 combined mean his stock is on the rise; he's a little-used offensive player who will only every now and then hit a home run on a return.
Now that wasn't part of the game plan!
For a few days early in the week, Maurice Morris was shaping up as a decent pickup, and a potential flex-play sleeper, going up against the Chicago Bears' overrated run defense. That is until Kevin Smith managed to play Sunday despite his shoulder injury. A question mark for much of the week, Smith stepped in and handled 19 of the Detroit Lions' 26 rushing attempts, including two of the team's three at the goal line, both of which he converted for scores. That the Lions were confident enough to trust Smith in those hard-hitting, short-yardage situations despite health questions is quite the promising sign that he's fine going forward.
Go get 'em!
As you're preparing your waiver claims, keep these names in mind:
• Jerome Harrison: Hard to believe he's still available in more than 98 percent of ESPN leagues, especially in light of the news that rookie James Davis is out for the year (on injured reserve) with a shoulder injury. "Starter" Jamal Lewis is on the wrong side of 30, has 2,424 career carries on his legs and is averaging 3.8 yards per carry in two regular-season games after a dreadful preseason. Not that I'm saying Harrison will be an instant fantasy stud, but it's not unthinkable he has 12 more starts coming his way, and starting running backs are effective must-owns in all fantasy leagues, even if only from a matchups standpoint.
• Mohamed Massaquoi: I feel decidedly pro-Browns this week, and part of it might be, hey, they're readily available in most every fantasy league. The other part: New quarterback often means new preferred receiver, and it sure seems Derek Anderson has something going with this rookie from Georgia. Anderson targeted Massaquoi 13 times, and the kid hauled in eight of those for 148 yards. That won't happen every week, but in larger and keeper leagues, I'd take a look.
• Seneca Wallace: Though much of his 257 yards and one touchdown passing came in garbage time, that Wallace was able to amass 16 fantasy points versus the stingy Indianapolis Colts pass defense shouldn't go unnoticed. He has actually been a serviceable NFL starter, and while Matt Hasselbeck could be back in time for Week 5, Wallace might not be a bad Hail Mary play if not. His next two matchups are home games versus the Jacksonville Jaguars and Arizona Cardinals; those are plenty favorable, especially in two-quarterback leagues.
The matchups did the talking
• Dwayne Bowe (one reception for 11 yards): Well, it wasn't only the matchup, his hamstring injury did seem to limit his explosiveness, as well. Bowe had trouble breaking loose from Bruce Johnson and Corey Webster, but at least he was able to grit this one out. His health bears watching this week.
• Andre Johnson (two receptions for 66 yards): Nnamdi! To note, Raiders cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha wasn't glued to Johnson the entire game; if he had, then Johnson might not have even had this many yards. Still, this isn't an unsurprising result, and I'd discard it accounting for the unfavorable matchup.
• Marques Colston (two receptions for 33 yards): Yet another case of a vicious man-to-man matchup, as the Jets' Darrelle Revis continued his Pro Bowl-caliber season by completely shadowing Colston, limiting him to only six targets on the day. Few cornerbacks bring Revis' talent level, and certainly nobody within Colston's division. Feel free to casually dismiss this stinker.
Flash forward
A quick preview of what's in store for Week 5
• The Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers, New Orleans Saints and San Diego Chargers hit their bye weeks.
• Hot-starting Carson Palmer and his Cincinnati Bengals head to Baltimore to take on the Ravens; they lost an ugly 17-10 game there in Week 1 of last season. Palmer hasn't been all bad historically in games versus the Ravens' vaunted defense, though, averaging 248 passing yards with 12 touchdowns in nine career meetings. He has averaged 238 yards with six scores in the five games played in Baltimore.
• The Indianapolis Colts and Tennessee Titans play in a meaningful contest on Sunday Night Football, and I say "meaningful" because they've played meaningless contests in Week 17 each of the past two seasons. Taking those out of the equation, in their past two meaningful meetings, the Titans' LenDale White has three rushing touchdowns -- all goal-line scampers -- while the Colts' Dallas Clark has 14 receptions for 163 yards and three touchdowns.
• If Donovan McNabb indeed returns from a fractured rib as reports suggest, he'll get a comfy-cozy matchup versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' pass defense, which has served up nine passing scores in its first four games.
• The New York Giants complete the uber-soft portion of their schedule with a home game versus the reeling Oakland Raiders. Expect another monster game for Eli Manning, Brandon Jacobs, Steve Smith and the boys, but right after Week 5 might be the greatest sell-high opportunity you'll get on Manning all season. I've mentioned these statistics many times on these pages during his career, but the guy has averaged 194 passing yards with 44 touchdowns compared to 46 interceptions in the final eight games of the regular season for his NFL career. He's a historic first-half performer, and the schedule has played that way again for him this year.
• Bill Belichick and his New England Patriots head to Denver to take on the Broncos, coached by Belichick disciple Josh McDaniels (Belichick's offensive coordinator from 2006-2008). So in this "battle of the brains," who gets the advantage? The smart money says McDaniels has a firm grip on what Tom Brady brings to the table, and Brady's so-so four passing scores in as many games, compared to the Broncos' six interceptions and zero touchdowns allowed in four games, makes Brady actually appear an unfavorable fantasy play for once.

Minneapolis New Breed
Performance art can be self-righteously serious and pathologically presumptuous. But the triumvirate of groups that make up this weekend's Minneapolis New Breed show at the Southern Theater—Lamb Lays with Lion, Mad King Thomas, and SuperGroup—make cutting edge, next-wave whoopee that is smart, savvy, and loads of fun. In "Lamb Lays with Lion vs. Katie Mitchell's The Seagull," two casts co-habit the stage while performing Chekhov's famous play simultaneously. Can they achieve a Chekhovian exit without major collisions? And can the no-nonsense nonsense of Mad King Thomas's "Like a Circus, Only Death" strike fear into the hearts of Clowns Without Borders? Or maybe that would be SuperGroup, whose madcap maneuvers with props, dress-up, and pop iconography create triple-threat entertainment without a circus ring in sight. (Photo by Eric Melzer)

Dawwwww...this makes me think of how the final scene in Gwen's Book would have went if Oswald changed out of his armor first.
Yus! Hahah... whenever watching that scene, I always thought it's video game magic that he doesn't stab her with his knee armor... having made that armor also, I can tell you it is frigging impossible to hug someone with those things coming off your legs lmfao. >D >D
I guess Oswald got a lot of practice in maneuvering that armor so he didn't stab people with it on accident. Or bump it into something that he doesn't want to break.
Probably, hahah... shadow knight secrets
Yeah. He wouldn't want to knock over whatever fancy knick nacks Melvin had lying around (I'm sure that scheming fairy had something extremely breakable in his home...he just strikes me as the type...). And then it came in handy later on for hugging his wife without worrying about harming her.
Oh!! Wow!! Thats Great!!!
So cute!

Celebrate fall's delicious apples with desserts that will make your mouth water and your home smell like heaven. America's Test Kitchen chef shares foolproof recipes for baked apples, reduced-fat apple crisp and French apple cake.
For topping
- 2/3 cup (2 ounces) old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1/3 cup Grape-Nuts cereal
- 5 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup (11/4 ounces) all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
For filling
- 6 large Golden Delicious apples (8 ounces each), peeled, cored, and halved
- 1 cup apple juice
- 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
Baking Directions:
For the toppingProcess 1/3 cup oats in food processor until finely ground, about 20 seconds. Combine processed oats, remaining 1/3 cup oats, Grape-Nuts, sugar, flour, butter, cinnamon, and salt in medium bowl; set aside. For the fillingAdjust oven rack to upper-middle position and heat oven to 400 degrees. Cut 3 apples into 1-inch pieces and slice remaining 3 apples into ¼-inch-thick wedges. Bring apple pieces, apple juice, sugar, and cinnamon to simmer in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until apples are tender, about 15 minutes. Transfer mixture to bowl and mash apples using potato masher. Reserve 1 tablespoon mashed apple mixture. Return remaining mashed apple mixture to skillet with apple wedges and cook, covered, until wedges just begin to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Off heat, stir in lemon juice. Scrape apple filling into 8-inch square baking dish and press into even layer. Add reserved mashed apple to topping mixture, stirring until mixture appears crumbly. Sprinkle topping over filling and bake until juices are bubbling and topping is deep golden brown, about 25 minutes. Let cool on wire rack for 15 minutes. Serve. The numbersAll nutritional information is for a 1-cup serving of apple crisp.Traditional apple crispCALORIES 540FAT 23 g SATURATED FAT 11 gCook's Country reduced-fat apple crispCALORIES 300FAT 6 g SATURATED FAT 4 gSECRET INGREDIENT Grape-NutsAre we off our nut? Figuratively, no. Literally, yes. We love the flavor and crunch that nuts add to apple crisp but not the fat and calories. For guilt-free crunch, we used Grape-Nuts cereal in place of walnuts or pecans.
Instant or quick oats turn the topping sandy; use old-fashioned oats. Note that the apple pieces and apple wedges are cooked differently.
- 7 large (about 6 ounces each) Granny Smith apples (see note)
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/3 cup dried cranberries, coarsely chopped
- 1/3 cup coarsely chopped pecans, toasted
- 3 tablespoons old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon finely grated zest from 1 orange
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch table salt
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons apple cider
Baking Directions:
1. Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees. Peel, core, and cut 1 apple into 1/4-inch dice. Combine 5 tablespoons of -butter, brown sugar, cranberries, pecans, oats, orange zest, cinnamon, diced apple, and salt in large bowl; set aside. 2. Shave thin slice off bottom (blossom end) of remaining 6 apples to allow them to sit flat. Cut top 1/2 inch off stem end of apples and reserve. Peel apples and use melon baller or small measuring spoon to remove 1½-inch diameter core, being careful not to cut through bottom of apple. 3. Melt remaining tablespoon butter in 12-inch nonstick ovensafe skillet over medium heat. Once foaming subsides, add apples, stem-side down, and cook until cut surface is golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip apples, reduce heat to low, and spoon filling inside, mounding excess filling over cavities; top with reserved apple caps. Add maple syrup and 1/3 cup cider to skillet. Transfer skillet to oven, and bake until skewer inserted into apples meets little resistance, 35 to 40 minutes, basting every 10 minutes with maple syrup mixture in skillet. 4. Transfer apples to serving platter. Stir up to 2 tablespoons remaining cider into sauce in skillet to adjust consistency. Pour sauce over apples and serve.
If you don't have an ovenproof skillet, transfer the browned apples to a 13- by 9-inch baking dish and bake as directed. The recipe calls for 7 apples; 6 are left whole and 1 is diced and added to the filling. Serve the apples with vanilla ice cream, if desired. For our free recipe for Best Baked Apples with Dried Apricots and Almonds, go to www.cooksillustrated.com/feb10.
- 11/2 pounds Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, cut into 8 wedges, and sliced 1/8 inch thick crosswise
- 1 tablespoon Calvados
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 cup (5 ounces) plus 2 tablespoons -all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (7 ounces) plus 1 tablespoon -granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg plus 2 large yolks
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Confectioners' sugar
Baking Directions:
1. Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 325 degrees. Spray 9-inch springform pan with vegetable oil spray. Place prepared pan on rimmed baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Place apple slices into microwave-safe pie plate, cover, and microwave until apples are pliable and slightly translucent, about 3 minutes. Toss apple slices with Calvados and lemon juice and let cool for 15 minutes.2. Whisk 1 cup flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt together in bowl. Whisk egg, oil, milk, and vanilla together in second bowl until smooth. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and whisk until just combined. Transfer 1 cup batter to separate bowl and set aside.3. Add egg yolks to remaining batter and whisk to combine. Using spatula, gently fold in cooled apples. Transfer batter to prepared pan; using offset spatula, spread batter evenly to pan edges, gently pressing on apples to create even, compact layer, and smooth surface.4. Whisk remaining 2 tablespoons flour into reserved batter. Pour over batter in pan and spread batter evenly to pan edges and smooth surface. Sprinkle remaining 1 tablespoon granulated sugar evenly over cake.5. Bake until center of cake is set, toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, and top is golden brown, about 1¼ hours. Transfer pan to wire rack; let cool for 5 minutes. Run paring knife around sides of pan and let cool completely, 2 to 3 hours. Dust lightly with confectioners' sugar, cut into wedges, and serve.
The microwaved apples should be pliable but not completely soft when cooked. To test for doneness, take one apple slice and try to bend it. If it snaps in half, it's too firm; microwave it for an additional 30 seconds and test again. If Calvados is unavailable, 1 tablespoon of apple brandy or white rum can be substituted.

Artist Who Protested Fancy New Condos on Bond Street Just Bought One
Chuck Close keeps it superreal.
Once upon a time (well, two years ago), artist Chuck Close worried that the new development on Bond Street would block the natural light he needed to work in his studio at Number 20. Now it turns out the painter and his wife Leslie just paid nearly $6 million for a unit in the new 48 Bond, designed by Deborah Berke. We're not sure whether this means he'll be ditching his fantastic, carefully crafted West Village home, but the lesson for all you light-starved artists out there is that if you keep buying into the tallest new buildings on the street, you'll never actually be light-starved! Problem solved! Don't make everything so difficult, artists! [Real Deal via Curbed]

Late last week Bosch announced an upgraded Li-ion battery, only the second 18-volt pack to be rated 5.0 Ah or higher; the other is Metabo's 5.2 Ah pack. Bosch's BAT621 should be able to store 25% more power than the 4.0 Ah packs that are current top-of-the-line in most cordless systems. The greater storage capacity of this battery will mean longer runtime for any tool it powers. This will be of particular value in power-hungry tools—such as saws, grinders, and rotary hammers—that go through batteries quickly.
The BAT621 pack is the same size and weight as Bosch's earlier 4.0 and 3.0 Ah packs and can be used in the same tools. Features include a built-in fuel gauge and a heat conductive housing that is said to extend the life of the battery by keeping it cooler.

In my application I'm trying to merge sorted files (keeping them sorted of course), so I have to iterate through each element in both files to write the minimal to the third one. This works pretty much slow on big files, as far as I don't see any other choice (the iteration has to be done) I'm trying to optimize file loading. I can use some amount of RAM, which I can use for buffering. I mean instead of reading 4 bytes from both files every time I can read once something like 100Mb and work with that buffer after that, until there will be no element in buffer, then I'll refill the buffer again. But I guess ifstream is already doing that, will it give me more performance and is there any reason? If fstream does, maybe I can change size of that buffer?
My current code looks like that (pseudocode)
// this is done in loop
int i1 = input1.read_integer();
int i2 = input2.read_integer();
if (!input1.eof() && !input2.eof())
if (i1 < i2)
} else
} else {
if (input1.eof())
else if (input2.eof())
What I don't like here is
- seek_back - I have to seek back to previous position as there is no way to peek 4 bytes
- too much reading from file
- if one of the streams is in EOF it still continues to check that stream instead of putting contents of another stream directly to output, but this is not a big issue, because chunk sizes are almost always equal.
Can you suggest improvement for that?

Top Customer Reviews
The thing that we all found most disappointing was the DVD. Given that the game is centered around a TV show, and it comes with a DVD that you use to play the game, we all had VERY high expectations to be watching a lot of little scenes from the show, and to have to answer questions based on that. Or at the very least, little scenes showing parts of the skit once we GOT the answer. Boy were we mistaken. The DVD, although it does contain a few portions of skits, and a few sound bites here and there, is LARGELY just the questions being shown on TV, instead of being on a card. VERY disappointing there.
Playing the game creates many "laugh out loud" moments, as the architects selected some of the funnier skits to test viewers' knowledge. Many of the questions will result in exchanges where players who remember the skit will fill in the rest of the table and everyone will get a good laugh. Sometimes, the humor explains itself, like during our game, when the question was, "Who played Mindy Cohn in a spoof of the former `Facts of Life' star?" When the name "Chris Farley" was read, the answer set the table on a roar.
As many people have already noted, the crowning achievement of the game lies in the craftsmanship of the playing pieces. Skillfully designed in a manner that nearly rivals those Civil War chess pieces of the 1980s, the little figures exude such a degree of adroit fabrication that many people will want to display them on desks or mantels. Players can select from such iconic characters as Beldar Conehead, The Landshark, Chris Farley's "down by the river" van dweller and my favorite, The Ladies Man (complete with his own glass of Courvoisier).
With all that going for it, however, degree of difficulty really harms the experience of playing the game. Lorne Michaels himself couldn't answer these questions. My family contains many members who frequently watch the show (although one player guessed "Mango" for nearly all questions), but our game slowed to nearly quagmire status, as correct answers were rarely achieved.Read more ›
Game Pieces: The game pieces are ingenious! You can play as one of several classic SNL characters such as landshark, Conehead or the Ladies Man. The pie pieces slide into the base of each piece and stay put even when the piece is turned upside down! This is great for us since we sometimes like to stop a game and pick it up on another day.
Game Board: The creativity in the game pieces ended there. The board looks really dated with graphics that look like they fell out of the 80's. They had the opportunity to design a really cool bored and I thought it fell short.
DVD: I love the addition of the DVD for "pie" questions. The navigation is a little jerky and hard to scroll from category to category and at one point, I accidently pressed stop and we had to start over again (and got some repeat questions.) We both loved the feature that you can "steal pie" if the person on the pie space doesnt know the answer or guesses wrong. It makes the game go much faster.
Questions: My husband and I consider oursleves die-hard SNL fans but were really surprised at how difficult the questions were! The game focuses on really specific details, lines, etc. from characters that were not just the mainstream characters. We got a lot of laughs remembering the episodes, but were stumped on a lot of questions. Also, the game includes characters and sketches from the show's beginning all the way to the current season. We were surprised to get a question involving Fred Armisan since he is a fairly new cast member.
Overall: Entertaining but definitely for the true-blue fans. The very difficult questions got a little frustrating!
We returned the game the following day.

Now a days, it's hard to find a powerful laptop without paying over $1000 dollars. What's worse, it's even harder to find one with a dedicated graphics card. However, this puppy takes the cake. With a dual core i5 processor, 4th standard ddr3 1066mhz ram, 500gb hdd, and a 1gb ddr3 dedicated nvidia card, this will provide all the performance you need. Gamers, with optimus technology, your computer will provide power when you need it, and save it when you don't. This is the perfect buy. Pros: excellent graphics, even up to 56fps in starcraft 2 on high settings. Powerful computations, quick memory, and excellent storage and battery life. Cons: when the graphics card is on, the computer fan blows out hot air like a hair dryer, however it has great ventilation to not overheat the computer itself, just raise room temperature.
Thank you Acer for developing a powerful gaming laptop with a dedicated graphics card without paying over $1000. It is a super buy.
Pros: Intel i5 with 2.3 with turbo boosting to 2.9 (you can see the difference in the games and daily programs). It has 4 Gb of ram, with 500 Gb hard drive and the NVidia card is amazing picture quality.
Cons: To extend the life of your laptop, you have to buy a cooling pad to use while playing games.
This laptop is a great value. It's fast enough for any gaming applications, and if your like me and just use it for business applications, you'll have more than enough power. I did a lot of research on the i5 & i7 processors. The i5 will give you all the juice you need. I couldn't justify spending the extra money on a processor that rates the same, and runs hotter. You will be happy with this purchase. The keys are quiet, it's got good battery life, and the build is excellent. I'm on this laptop 50+ hours a week and haven't had a hiccup yet. Acer did an outstanding job with this model.
A great computer for the money. Runs fast, clear graphics.

Hi Nick,
Great plugin :)
I have a bbPress setup with a number of different forums. On my general content pages I want to display a simple list of latest topics from a specific forum within the sidebar.
I can see I can select "forum" or "topics" as custom post type within the widget, but is there any way to configure it to display topics associated with a specific forum, rather than all topics?
Thanks - and apologies if there's an obvious answer :$

The perpendicular bisector of the line joining $A(0,1)$ and $C(-4,7)$ intersects the $x$-axis at $B$ and the $y$-axis at $D$. Find the area of the quadrilateral.
Thank you in advance!
Thank you in advance!
The perpendicular bisector of the segment $AC$, by definition, passes through the midpoint of the segment. Look at your drawing. The segment $BD$ is a base to the triangles $BCD$ and $BAD$. Note also that the heights of the triangles are equal.
Tag the question as homework and show what you've already tried, otherwise it will be (rightfully) closed soon.
Now, we just had this question.
If the quadrilateral is ABCD--that is, if AC and BD are its diagonals--then the quadrilateral has perpendicular diagonals, so its area is half the product of the lengths of the diagonals (which you can find from the coordinates of A, B, C, and D).
Making Weltschmerz's answer explicit, and very much related to Isaac's answer: note that the quadrilateral can be split into two triangles. The area of one triangle is half the product of the length of $\overline{BD}$ (the base) and half the length of $\overline{AC}$ (the height). Doubling that gives an area expression that is exactly what Isaac stated.
As for computing the coordinates of $B$ and $D$, here's a twofer method: once you can compute the equation of the line from the point-slope form, transform the equation you have into the "two-intercept" form
whence your x- and y-intercepts are (a,0) and (0,b).
The perpendicular bisector will pass through the mid-point: $(-2, 4)$ of the line passing through the points $A(0, 1)$ & $C(-4, 7)$ & have a slope: $\frac{2}{3}$ normal to the line $AC$.
The equation of perpendicular bisector is given as $$y-4=\frac{2}{3}(x-(-2))$$ $$\implies y=\frac{2x+4+12}{3}=\frac{2x+16}{3}$$ By substituting $y=0$ & $x=0$ respectively, the points of intersection of perpendicular bisector with the axes are determined as : $B(-8, 0)$ & $D\left(0, \frac{16}{3}\right)$. Now divide the quadrilateral $ABCD$ into two triangles $\Delta ABC$ & $\Delta ACD$ Thus we have $$\text{area of quadrilateral}\space ABCD=\text{area of}\space \Delta ABC \space \text{with vertices}\space (0, 1),(-8, 0)\space \text{&}\space (-4, 7)+\text{area of }\space \Delta ACD \space \text{with vertices}\space (0, 1),(-4, 7)\space \text{&}\space \left(0, \frac{16}{3}\right)$$ $$\implies \text{area of quadrilateral}\space ABCD=\frac{1}{2}\left|0(0-7)-8(7-1)-4(1-0)\right|+\frac{1}{2}\left|0\left(7-\frac{16}{3}\right)-4\left(\frac{16}{3}-1\right)+0(1-7)\right|$$ $$=\frac{1}{2}\left|-60\right|+\frac{1}{2}\left|\frac{-52}{3}\right|=30+\frac{26}{3}$$$$=\frac{116}{3}\space \text{sq.unit}$$

text: Acacia Research Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player. My first earnings short-squeeze trade idea is patent player Acacia Research ( ACTG), which is set to report results on Thursday after the market close. This company, through its operating subsidiaries, acquires, develops, licenses and enforces patented technologies. It generates revenue and related cash flow from the granting of rights for the use of patented technologies. Wall Street analysts, on average, expect Acacia Research to report revenue of $42.24 million on earnings of 24 cents per share. If you're looking for an uptrending heavily shorted stock that the bears are pressing their bets with ahead of the quarter, then make sure to check out shares of Acacia Research. This stock hit a near-term low of $32.44 in June and has since then run up to its current price of $39 a share. The current short interest as a percentage of the float for Acacia Research sits at 5.9%. That means that out of the 45.94 million shares in the tradable float, 2.85 million shares are sold short by the bears. The short-sellers have also been increasing their bets from the last reporting period by 12.4%, or by about 312,800 shares. If the bears are caught leaning too hard into this quarter, then we could easily see a big-time short-covering rally kick off post-earnings. From a technical perspective, ACTG is currently trading above both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, which is bullish. This stock dropped big back in May from a high of $42.42 to a recent low of $32.44 a share. During that slide lower, shares of ACTG have consistently made lower highs and lower lows, which is bearish technical price action. That said, ACTG has started to rebound of late with shares moving back above both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages. That move has pushed ACTG within range of triggering a near-term breakout trade. If you're bullish on ACTG, then I would wait until after earnings and look for long-biased trades if this stock can manage to trigger a breakout above some near-term overhead resistance at $40.32 a share with high volume. Look for volume on that move that registers near or above its three-month average action of 374,862 shares. If we get that move, then ACTG will likely re-test and possibly take out its next major overhead resistance level of $42.43 a share. Any high-volume move over $42.43 should give ACTG a great chance of tagging $44.98 a share. I would simply avoid ACTG or look for short-biased trades if after earnings it fails to trigger that breakout, and then drops below both its 200-day at $37.71 and its 50-day at $36.49 a share with high-volume. If we get that action, then ACTG will likely trend down towards $35 to $33 a share, or possibly even lower if the bears hammer this stock post-earnings. As of the most recently reported quarter, ACTG was one of George Soros' top holdings. Prev 1 of 6 Next
