Newt Gingrich, whose understanding of the role of the judicial branch under the U.S. Constitution is absolutely terrifying, has been married three times and cheated on his first two wives. Why then are evangelicals supporting him over squeaky-clean Mitt Romney? Do people really believe a politician who says that they're reformed and have repented of their mistakes?
Bob Vander Plaats, president of The Family Leader, told NPR:
"The centerpiece of our faith is forgiveness," he says.
Vander Plaats says evangelicals also like Gingrich because they want a conservative they can trust.
"There's a certain anxiety and, dare I say, fearfulness about the world we live in today," he says, and "they're probably willing to forgive and move on from the baggage of the past, the misgivings of the past, if they really believe he's the best one prepared to lead to a safer, more vibrant America."
Sorry, but that's absurd. I don't know any of my fellow evangelicals who got into Bill Clinton's corner because it was important to forgive him for his philandering. To me the answer here is simple: Gingrich is outperforming Romney because Romney is Mormon.
Forget the fact that Gingrich is Catholic. There is plenty of theological tension between evangelicals and Catholics, but as I've mentioned over and over, a lot of Christians, if not most evangelicals, do not believe that Mormons are Christians of any kind. Which is unfortunate because Romney might actually be able to get something down in Washington, while I fear that Gingrich would just inflame both sides of Congress and lead to more intransigence.
Hmmm ... maybe Gingrich should have kept his Iowa political director.

|3 Super Tyrants Slain
The Super Tyrants are the red clawed Tyrants you see at the end of The Places We're Meant to Die. The key thing to note is that the standard Tyrants, the Mr. X guys, will turn into a Super Tyrant if they're hit by the rail gun that your Spec Ops commander has air dropped through the roof for you. Once you are facing a Super Tyrant, draw him away from the rail gun while it recharges, and make sure he is not in line of sight when it is charged or otherwise it will hit him again and kill him, which doesn't count for the achievement. Instead, draw him around a corner and kill him with your guns and grenades by shooting at the red spot on his chest. Once he's down, draw another Tyrant to the rail gun to be transformed, drawn away and killed by you and your team. Repeat one more time for the achievement.

Xbox 360 DVD Drive Repair Guide Book Review
Customer review of the book Xbox 360 DVD Drive Repair Guide
Now the book covers almost every problem you might stumble upon during the time you own an Xbox 360. Problems such as disk errors, Open Tray Errors on your dashboard, unreadable disc problems, play DVD error, blinking green light, and tray issues etc. After I downloaded the book I took apart my 360's drive and followed the instructions and illustrations in it. To my surprise the book was 100% accurate and even though it stated that a BenQ drive is particularly difficult to repair I still managed to follow the instructions and repair my drive which is a BenQ drive incidentally in less than two hours. Now I'm not a person that usually tinkers with stuff so if I'm able to fix my Xbox's drive successfully anybody should be able to do so.
Now apart from covering how to fix almost every Xbox 360 drive related issue the book also covers what you should avoid doing to your Xbox 360's drive. The list is pretty compressive and acts as a warning for anyone who wants to get a little wild with their system without knowing what might happen. Towards the end of the book general errors are explained many of which are related to the laser of your drive and the solution of which is to mostly replace your laser which too is described in great detail in this book. This can be considered sort of like a trouble shooting guide that can be helpful in pinpointing a specific problem with your drive.
This book comes highly recommended by me to anyone who owns an Xbox 360 regardless of the fact that they may have a problem or not simply because you never know when a problem might hit you and it is at that point that this book can become invaluable. The book only costs a few dollars compared to possibly hundreds of dollars you can stand to earn by simply repairing the drives of friends and family members not to mention the money you will save. The book makes good use of pictures, and words making it easy for almost anyone to follow. All that Justin Gourley asks of you is to read though the rather short book prior to attempting any repairs.

Barack the demagogue! Always predicable to use fear and misinformation against
the low information folks in the US to campaign for his causes. Depend on Barack
to use kids as props or whatever is necessary to force his gun-less America
agenda. The man is despicable and dishonest. Barack wants registration - he
wants your name on a list and he won't stop until he gets it.
A demagogue is a political leader in a democracy who appeals to the emotions, prejudices, and ignorance of the less-educated people of a population in order to gain power.

'Shame on us' if Newtown is forgotten'
Absolutely Newtown should not be forgotten. This is why I and others like me continue to point out that we need to attack the problem of (gun) violence where it exists. Not attack it where it doesn't exist just so we can say we have done 'something'. If we don't attack this problem intelligently, no progress will be made.
Let us begin by reminding ourselves that law abiding people are not the problem. Criminals and people with mental health problems .. are the problem. Therefore banning guns that look like 'assault' weapons such as having pistol grips as was done in the last assault weapons ban will not solve the problem.
For the sake of the memory of the children .. of Newtown .. and for the sake of all of us, let us attack this problem intelligently. For the sake of the children who are saved from criminal action by guns every year let us remember and take wisdom from this now famous quote ..
"Adam Lanza commits a crime, and I'm here to grovel and plead for my rights?"

As a matter of fact, Mr. patriot, I do have a question. Assuming we are able to agree on just where the MOST "low information voters" actually live, then why do they tend to vote pretty heavily for Republican presidential candidates? And what could/should we do to make them "smarter"?

re:Mark B
I get it Mark - you are a liberal and you don't like being called a low information voter. I would say you are an exception to the 'low information' masses that voted for Barack either because he was the right skin color, he gave em hand outs or he was a cool cat. A very sad indictment to a high percentage of America. I labeled Barack as a demagogue because that is his predictable pattern for the past 4+ years. For every issue the man uses fear coupled with misinformation to rev up his adoring supporters instead of setting down and governing like an actual president should. It is something that turns the stomachs of most Americans. This gun debate is serious Mark - it is not something that should be politicized like it is by Barack because the majority of Americans cherish their right to protect themselves and their families and when a president and his gun-banning supporters attempt to mis-represent the facts in order to achieve a long - desired socialist dream of a gun-less America it divides and polarizes America which seems to always be the goal of Barack Obama.

I've installed Ubuntu 9.10 on a Windows XP using vmware. As most do, I initially setup the size of the virtual drive to 8GB and soon realized I need more. I used the VMware utility to expand the virtual drive and added another 4GB, which I can see using GParted. Now my dilemma is how can I "merge" the newly created space to my original?
I need to add the unallocated space. I tried before and after formatting the new space but still whenever I try to resize/move
/dev/sda1 it looks like it is using its maximum capacity. Also, GParted is being used from the GParted live CD not from the Linux live CD.

On the Improvement of Localization Accuracy with Non-Individualized HRTF-Based Sounds
Even though individual head-related transfer function (HRTF) filters produce better performance in virtual-reality environments, measuring individuals is labor intensive and expensive. Can training be used to enhance the performance of generic filters? This research shows that short training sessions with feedback allows for perceptual adaptation where simple exposure to generic HRTF filters did not. The benefits of training were observed not only for the trained sounds but also for other stimulus positions that were not part of the training. Apparently, subjects were actually adapting and generalizing to the generic HRTF filters, which is a manifestation of sensory neural plasticity. Learning profiles are unique to individuals. Any testing of localization performance should recognize the influence of training.

DiDio & Lee Says DC Will Take the Time to Do "Watchmen"/Rebirth Story 'Right'
Comic Books
Top Five Month continues (check here to see an archive of all the top five lists featured so far) with a look at the top five comic characters who talk like absolute morons.
5. Caliban
Caliban was not actually a moron, he just sounded like one.
4. Big Sir
Big Sir, however, WAS a moron – a moron outfitted with a supersuit.
He was hilarious as a member of the Injustice League.
3. Drax the Destroyer
Currently (and originally) Drax the Destroyer was an able-minded hunter of Thanos.
For a time in the early 90s, though, Drax was a addled-brained and used as comic relief.
He WAS pretty funny.
2. The Hulk
The Hulk?? How could one of the world's most famous dummies end up only at #2?
Well, my theory is that the Hulk, over the years, has really been many different things – and not always dumb, unlike..
1. Bizarro
Like Caliban, Bizarro is not actually a moron, his backwards talk just makes it sound like he is one.
Still, his silly mode of speech is so notable it even ended up on a famous episode of Seinfeld!!
That's the list!
Agree? Disagree? Let me know!
I love Ajax…. and I prefer stupid Drax over sensible no-nonsense Drax…..
Now what does that say about me?
Me hated that list!
What about Bibbo?
Or Solomon Grundy?
Or Bill Jemas?
Ha! I never thought I'd miss Jemas, but here we are. At least he was… entertaining? Interesting? Didn't have his name on Spider-Man's satanic divorce? I know there's a reason I miss his run. Also, I'll say "What about every character Bendis writes" just to get that snark out of the way.
I think Ultimate Captain America deserves at least an Honorable Mention.
Warlock. Not Adam, but the techno one from the New Mutants.
Yoda. He appeared in comcs, so he counts.
Recorders. I think the Rigellians sent them out, but I don't remember.
OK, maybe they don't sound like morons. They are annoying to listen to (read).
Hey, if Yoda counts, Jar Jar does too. He IS a moron, AND he talks like one.
Superbaby really belongs on the list. He doesn't talk or think like a toddler, just … wrong.
Nuklo nem-sis skill!
Though not comic book, per se, I'd give an honorable mention to Cousin Ned and Venturestein, from Venture Bros. Amazingly moronic.
What about All-Star Batman? He's gotta be on the list somewhere….
…the GODDAMN list…
As little as me hate Bizarro-speak, Loeb not using it as little as he did did not make my head hurt.
How about "The 616 Avengers as written by Brian Michael Bendis."
Much as I love Big Sir, I think you've gotta have Java on that list.
"Solomon Grundy want pants too!"
Where did Ben Grimm fall on the list? If he doesn't talk like a moron, his speech is at least "rough".
Teuton! Starlin was infamous for creating cross-company-copies of his favorite characters so he could use them again, and dumb-Drax was just his way of porting over Teuton from Dreadstar. The original is still the best!
Dude… where's Solomon Grundy? I know it varies by writer and "revival", but then again so does Hulk!
SWEET CHRISTMAS! No Jive-talkin' 70's Luke Cage?! I'ma call Jesse on yo @$$!
So, what you're saying is — anyone with a speech impediment or happens to have an individual way of speaking talks like a moron??
Bizarro number 1 totally not number 1!
I totally agree with Colossus 2000. Man was Drax better when he was a super-strong dumbass instead of the Riddickesque modern revamp.
No We3 mention? You only have the dog staring down on you every time you visit here.
Well, he actually talks like a genius, for a dog.
Genius for a dog is peeing really high.
All those X-Men characters with faux accents and over-used regional colloquialisms sound pretty damn stupid: Gambit, Rogue, Nightcrawler, Banshee, etc. etc.
Every time I've had the misfortune to read a Gambit comic I hear the voice of that stupid candlestick from Beauty & the Beast in my head.
So, that would make 1 a super-genius.
Or was he just a moron, who didn't talk like one?
Wanted's Fuckwit!
I say again, anyone with a speech impediment or an individual way of speaking — and that', to you, is a bad thing???
Sorry, Vince, we couldn't understand you because of your unconventional syntax.
Snark aside, I'm not sure what Vince is referring to here. .
It's not like the characters in the list have lisps or something. At best they're adults who talk like toddlers — andI feel like I'm being kind of uncharitable to babies when I say that, because they can be kind of articulate sometimes.
But I guess you bring to it whatever baggage you happen to be carrying.
What about Guy Gardner there's freakin a moron for you, how about T-T-T-Tin from the Metal Men or maybe that's just bad taste on my part, Sorry. ( Scar face, Ass Face)
Wait "The Russian"
You forgot Wolverine, Gambit, Rogue, and anyone written by Stan Lee.
Christ, I hate Bizarro…
But I'd have to agree that Gambit deserved to be on that list. Also any silver-age DC infant.
ha, it wasnt until #1 i realized that this wasnt called, "characters who talk like mormons".

About the Author
Dr. Seuss was born Theodor Geisel in Springfield, Massachusetts on March 2, 1904. After attending Dartmouth College and Oxford University, he began a career in advertising. His advertising cartoons, featuring Quick, Henry, the Flit!, appeared in several leading American magazines.
Dr. Seuss's first children's book, And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street, hit the market in 1937, and the world of children's literature was changed forever!
In 1957, Seuss's The Cat in the Hat became the prototype for one of Random House's best- selling series, Beginner Books. This popular series combined engaging stories with outrageous illustrations and playful sounds to teach basic reading skills.
Brilliant, playful, and always respectful of children, Dr. Seuss charmed his way into the consciousness of four generations of youngsters and parents. In the process, he helped kids learn to read.
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1984 and three Academy Awards, Seuss was the author and illustrator of 44 children's books, some of which have been made into audiocassettes, animated television specials, and videos for children of all ages. Even after his death in 1991, Dr. Seuss continues to be the best-selling author of children's books in the world.

Gold May Rise in New York on Haven Demand; Set for Weekly Gain
Gold may gain for the fourth time this week in New York on speculation the debt crisis in Europe will boost demand for the precious metal as a haven.
Gold rallied 3.4 percent this week and is heading for a 3 percent gain this month, while assets in the world's largest gold-backed exchange-traded fund increased to a record. U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner said yesterday the U.S. and Europe are in "broad agreement" on the need for tighter regulation to help calm volatile markets.
"The safe haven concept is still there," said Afshin Nabavi, a senior vice president at bullion refiner MKS Finance SA in Geneva. "A lot of people are still investing in physical gold. But we need a bit of stability in prices to attract more people" to the precious metal, he said.
Gold futures for August delivery gained $1.20, or 0.1 percent, to $1,215.60 an ounce by 8:10 a.m. on the Comex in New York. Bullion for immediate delivery in London was 0.1 percent higher at $1,214.10.
The metal rose to $1,214 an ounce in the morning "fixing" in London, used by some mining companies to sell output, from $1,211 at yesterday's afternoon fixing. Spot prices are up 11 percent this year.
Gold futures climbed to a record $1,249.70 on May 14 as investors sought to protect their wealth amid Europe's sovereign-debt crisis. The euro is headed for a sixth monthly drop against the dollar amid concern the region's financial turbulence will slow growth.
'Good Choice'
"Gold is at the moment fulfilling its traditional role as a safe haven," Citigroup Inc. commodity analyst Alan Heap said on Bloomberg television. "Investors are once again concerned about sovereign risk" and a rally to $1,500 an ounce is possible this year, he said.
The gold market is very important to China and a "good choice" to help implement its plan to internationalize the yuan, said Wang Zhenying, deputy director-general of the Department of Financial Market Management at the People's Bank of China Shanghai office. The country should improve and develop more gold investment products, Zhenying said.
Holdings in the SPDR Gold Trust, the biggest ETF backed by bullion, increased by 0.3 metric ton to a record 1,267.93 tons yesterday, according to the company's website. Global holdings rose 0.6 ton to 1,981.8 tons yesterday, according to Bloomberg data tracking 10 providers.
Twenty-two of 26 traders, investors and analysts surveyed by Bloomberg said bullion would rise next week. Two forecast lower prices and two were neutral.
Platinum for July delivery in New York gained 0.5 percent to $1,561 an ounce. Palladium for September delivery added 0.3 percent to $466.40 an ounce. Silver for July delivery rose 0.4 percent to $18.55 an ounce.

Company denies claim of harassment Company denies former employee's allegations of harassment
Published: Tuesday, July 20, 1993 at 3:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, July 20, 1993 at 12:00 a.m.
GREENVILLE - Spartan Mills Inc. denies that workers harassed a woman who formerly worked at its Startex Finishing Plant and is asking that a judge dismiss her lawsuit.
Shirley E. Martin of Spartanburg filed the lawsuit against the company in May. She is seeking a jury trial and an award of actual and punitive damages, court costs, lawyer fees and other relief. The company denies Martin's claims that she was "continually subjected to sexually suggestive and derogatory comments and improper physical sexual contacts." The company also denies that Martin told the plant manager about the alleged harassment. Martin claims that no one investigated her claims after she told the plant manager. 1HARAS.S

Homo Anderson Cooper's Glass Closet Workout
posted by April 7 at 10:45 AMon
I love living at a time in history where a public figure can be v. v. gay, not address it in any direct way, but let everyone join in on the joke. He has a good sense of humor about this Physique 57 workout, but it is sort of unnerving that he won't commit to "the lasso" or "the power plié" or "the tricep can-can." Whatever, Coops; I see you tugging on your t-shirt; I see you holding your arms in a triangle shape to broaden your upper body. STOP STR8 ACTIN' and thrust, gurl.

Sister doesn't get it
Over a year ago
I went shopping for my sister & we were looking at shoes & I kept saying "no, that one is leather," or "no that one is designed by Jennifer Lopez and she is responsible for lots of animal cruelty." She got mad at me! can you believe that?! she's being all condescending saying "well, its not like she'd the only one!" Like that makes it ok, right! I was so beyond angry and it made me even more angry that she couldn't understand how I feel about it or how horrible leather manufacturing is! She is such a hypocrite also, her friend bought a drink from McDonald's & she makes them feel all guilty. Plus she eats meat, so I'm glad she doesn't live at home anymore! Sorry for venting, no one in my house or tiny town understands this stuff, or if they do, they don't want to talk about it.
Please log in to reply.

Instead of saying "no" all the time (honestly, some people don't grow out of that toddler phase and dislike being told "no" so much they throw fits) say yes to beautiful vegan options. There are tons of vegan items on ebay and there are some small designers making purely vegan clothing and shoes. There is nothing fashionable about wearing dead animal carcasses.
Or you could simply dismiss a cruel option as "sorry, I don't like it, let's look at another one" instead of giving the AR spin so she doesn't feel like she's being lectured by her sister.You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

Drink said to cause truck crashJanuary 28,2014Drink said to
cause truck crash
A shaken can of Red Bull, the popular energy drink, was blamed as the cause of a crash at the intersection of Route 4 and Town Line Road in Rutland Town on Sunday.
Vermont State Police say they were called to the intersection at 2:14 p.m. where a 2014 Chevrolet Tahoe had crashed into a mailbox owned by the Rocking Horse Store.
The driver of the truck, Peter Capkovic, 31, of Slovenska, Slovenia, told police he lost control of the vehicle when his friend opened a can of Red Bull and the beverage exploded all over the cab.
In the momentary confusion, the truck, a rental from Enterprise, veered into the oncoming lane before striking the mailbox.
No injuries were reported in the crash and only minor damage to the truck was reported, police said.MORE IN This Just InNORTH BENNINGTON Two public meetings, in North Bennington and Shaftsbury, have been set for...

Choose The Right Family Room For Your Next Cruise
Cruises are excellent choices for family and multigenerational vacations. There are activities and amenities for all age groups, so each family member can design their own personalized cruise vacation to fit their interests. In addition, cruise ships offer a wide variety of accommodations to fit a variety of family sizes and budgets. Its important to think about your familys needs as well when choosing your stateroom. Selecting the right cabin can play a key role in the success of your familys vacation.
Budget is often the main determinant when choosing a family stateroom. Before deciding whether to scrimp or splurge, though, think about how your family will be using the cabin. If you have young children and will need to spend significant amounts of time in your stateroom with them while theyre napping, having a balcony cabin can make a big difference in overall vacation enjoyment. It might be worthwhile to splurge on a balcony while finding ways to save on other parts of your trip. Connecting cabins and special family staterooms or suites can also be a huge plus, as they provide parents with the privacy they crave.
In addition, parents should pay special attention to location when selecting their familys stateroom. Cabins located mid-ship are generally preferred for convenience and stability. If its important to be close to a particular area of the ship, such as the youth programs area, look for that as well. Most importantly, though, carefully research whats located above and below any potential stateroom choices to help ensure peace and quiet while your children sleep in the evenings. Stay away from cabins located above theaters and lounges, or right below the pool deck. Staterooms on decks with cabins located both above and below are often best
Cruises work very well for family groups consisting of multiple generations or families traveling together. Multigenerational family groups may wish to choose connecting cabins or a combination of different types of staterooms in the same general area of the ship. Book early for the best selection. Special discounts may be available if your group is large enough.
Sometimes the perfect combination of exceptional family-friendly accommodation options and exciting ship amenities can be decisive in choosing a ship. Thats certainly the case with the new Carnival Vista. The innovative Carnival Vista is loaded with incredible features. For families and multigenerational groups, one of the best is the new, specially designed Family Harbor. Found only on Carnival Vista, Family Harbor is located in a dedicated family zone on Deck 2 aft. This exclusive Family Harbor area features 96 family ergonomic deluxe ocean view, balcony, and interior accommodations, extra-large suites, and a cool Family Harbor Lounge. This is one of the best choices for family accommodations on any of todays cruise ships.
Decorated in an attractive nautical theme, spacious Family Harbor accommodations come with lots of special amenities like toiletries, bathrobes and slippers customized for younger guests. Family Harbors suites feature separate sleeping areas for parents and kids, providing that extra privacy parents crave. A large walk-in closet and two separate bathrooms make these Family Harbor suites even more family-friendly. Family Harbors deluxe ocean view staterooms are perfect for larger families, accommodating up to five guests as well.
One of Family Harbors best features is the Family Harbor Lounge. This roomy hangout is accessible by card key and it's available round-the-clock exclusively for Carnival Vista guests staying in the Family Harbor area. The private Family Harbor Lounge is the perfect spot for families to relax and unwind together. It's equipped with large screen TVs, programmed family movies with popcorn, and Hasbro board games. Video game consoles, games and movies can be checked out here, too.
Family vacations are hassle free for those staying in Carnival Vistas exclusive Family Harbor. The Family Harbor Lounge is staffed with a dedicated family concierge from 3-5 p.m. daily to help make vacation planning easy for families and amp up the fun. The Family Harbor concierge is available to help register kids for youth programs, make shore excursion recommendations and bookings, handle dining and spa reservations, and much more.
In addition, families staying in Carnival Vistas Family Harbor have access to even more free goodies including:
* Kids under 12 eat free at all Carnival Vistas specialty dining restaurants except Chefs Table. Kids must be accompanied by adults and order from the Kids Menu.
* One free session of Night Owls per child, providing up to three free hours of babysitting. Night Owls is Carnivals late-night activities program for children up to 11 years of age. Kids enjoy parties, music and activities until as late as 1 a.m., giving parents time to have their own brand of fun onboard the Carnival Vista.
* Complimentary self-serve continental breakfast and snacks served each day in the Family Harbor Lounge.
* Self-serve cookies and milk available daily in the Family Harbor Lounge during family bedtime hours.
Family Harbor is a hit with families sailing onboard the Carnival Vista. It provides a centralized place for families to meet and hang out together, helping to make their Carnival Vista cruise the best vacation ever. In addition, all the extra Family Harbor amenities make the Carnival Vista even more awesome for lucky families making their home-away-from-home there. With the right choice of accommodations, family cruise vacations can easily be smooth sailing all the way.

I use 1&1 to host my website. It is asking me to upgrade from php 5.2 to 5.4.
First I updated wordpress to 3.5.1, and updated all my plugins. Then I switched to 5.4.
Now I have this error at the top of my site:
Warning: Illegal string offset 'name' in /homepages/38/d288486085/htdocs/home2/wp-content/plugins/genesis-simple-sidebars/plugin.php on line 106
Warning: Illegal string offset 'description' in /homepages/38/d288486085/htdocs/home2/wp-content/plugins/genesis-simple-sidebars/plugin.php on line 108
Line 106 is 'name' => esc_html( $info['name'] ),
Line 108 is 'description' => esc_html( $info['description'] ),
I'm not a programmer, so I don't know what to change without potentially making it much worse.

text: Posted December 3, 2010 To your speculation about the DEs, I think much of our lack of sack production revolves around lack of DT play meaning the defense can concentrate on the DEs. As for Johnson I really think he has come into his own this year and is a force. I really have not been concentrating on it but maybe you saw it. How many sacks does he have from the DT position on third downs with perhaps Hardy on the edge versus sacks from the DE position. I am unsure on how many sacks etc, but he lines up at DT in a 4 man front generally around 3-4 times a game, so it's not something he does regularly on 3rd downs for example. When we have a 3 man front he is usually the NT, which is employed depending on the opponent. I will have a look into it though and see if I can come up with anything. I know that when Brayton has moved inside he has only struggled more. That is with Brown, Brayton, Johnson, Hardy from right to left. As for Brayton specifically, I would separate his run defense in the past from this year. In 2009 for example he had 45 tackles and 5 sacks. So far this year he has started 9 of 11 games and has 14 tackles and 0 sacks. A huge drop off. Last year he led the defensive line in tackles and this year he is at the bottom. They kind of dropoff is pretty unusual without a major injury. Meanwhile Charles Johnson's numbers are going to be way up. Something that is worth considering is that he is playing almost exclusively at RE for the first time with us. Whilst he spent time there in 2009 for some games (and played well), this is the first time he is consistently anchored at that position. Could coming up against premier tackles have that much of an impact? Could the fact that a lot of teams will run to the strong side impact his ability to pick up tackles? As for general defensive line play I do think our schemes are pretty poor really. I don't know how much of that is Meeks and how much is Baker. But color me very unimpressed this year. Teams can easily exploit us especially on the edges. Johnson is the only one who is really doing a good job. Pretty much agree, however Hardy appears to not be caught out so much in the run game. However it's a fairly small sample size. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This was a great recipe. I used leftover kielbasa from Easter dinner. Next time if I use leftover kielbasa, I would wait to add until last, so it won't be overcooked. Also, we love carrots, so I'd add more of them. Will definitely be making this again.
I made this for dinner tonight. Next time I might cut back on the cabbage a little so the other flavors come through more.
This was amazing! My Husband, who is Polish, gave his compliments to the chef! He said it reminded him of a soup he used to eat when he was little. Anyway, I followed the directions to a T and the soup came out great! Thanks!

During the winter in my neighborhood, the begetation looks pretty baren. Things become really simple. Everything but the evergreens, loses it's leaves, dries up, and kinda disappears. You can see everything clearly without all the clutter in the way. Without the leaves, it is relatively easy to see the broken and dying branches. You go in with your pruning shears, saw, and whatnot, and you just clear everything out that doesn't look like it belongs. Order is the word for the day, and I am happy.
Spring comes along, and all the plants decide to take on new "features". All the little blooms are blooming. The grass begins to grow again, the leaves, following the blooms, start poking out again. Soon enough, the inner branches of the trees and bushes will be hidden, their stark simplicity replaced by a cacophony of colors and a blanket of clorophyll producing/consuming energy systems. It all looks good, but man! What a mess!!
Just so you can understand what follows, I will give you a brief inventory of the flora around my house:
5 50 foot pine trees. Always shedding needles, year round. 1 Giant Poplar. 2 dwarf Cherry (Rainier, Bing). 1 Prune plum, 3 large Bogenvalia, 1 large Cherry blossom, several Rhododendron and Azalia, ground cover here and there, raspberries, Rhubarb, a full vegatable garden, some large hedge type bushes (non descript), holly, this that and the other thing... And that's just the back yard.
The front yard is similarly equipped, although the trees are dogwood, magnolia, 20 roses, several fruit trees (apple, plum, pear), and again with the nasty ground cover I'd like to rip out.
The sides of the house feature more Rhodies, bamboo, of a couple different varieties, japanese maples, juniper type stuff, and some pretty flowering weed that I don't know, but they look like peas.
Now. It's almost a full time job to keep up with all this stuff. At least on the weekends. Oh yah, and there's a full complement of grass in both the front and back. Anyway, keeping up with this stuff is a full time job. I have two large 50 gallon "yard waste" cans, and they find themselves full every week. They only get picked up every other week, so there's no way to keep up really. You have to fill up extra bags and put them out, or take them to the dump separately.
What's striking about all this stuff is, during the winter, it's all completely ignored. I mean zilch, zip, nada. After about October, everthing just shuts down. The temperature drops, the plants die off or go dormant as they see fit, and I turn my attention to wood working, and selling off books. But come spring time, Padow!! There it all is.
This weekend, in order to tame some of the beast, we decided to take out some of the grass in the back yard and build in a perimeter walkway. A very nice idea indeed. Since we want to have strolling brunches sampling of the various fruits and veggies in the garden, we might as well have a nice walking path to make the stroll a pleasant one.
Well, this of course takes a trip to Lowe's. We have to look at what type of path trimmings are available that we like. We decide on these scalloped brick things, because Yasmin thinks they will look cool and are more instresting that the plain old ordinary bricks. OK, we don't buy them immediately, but we do buy a ball of twine to mark the path. Then, back home, stake the path, get out the tape measure, mark it all off. Turns out to be about 130' worth of walkway. This all happened after I used the weed wacker and lawn mower to essentially cut the grass down to dirt so we could actually see what the path might look like.
While I'm busy with this process, Yasmin is clipping some of the the bushes away from the path. It's one of the giant non descript bushes that generates white flowers, then red barries later in the summer. That, and the prune plum tree. This generates another pile of twigs and leaves, that of course won't fit into the already full yard waste container. So, they'll have to be stuffed into bags. But, we have a new feature now, it is a staked out path that almost looks like a path. One or two or three more milestones may be needed to finish the task.
Having staked out the path, we went off to Costco to buy a dvd, and then made a side trip to Home depot to see what they had going in the pavers department. Not as wide a selection as Lowe's so back to Lowe's.
Alright. We need exactly 128 of the 1 foot scalloped things, and 24 of the curved ones to make our curves. Just a little more than we need to account for breakage, and design changes. The nice thing about Lowe's is that they help you with "load out". That is, the nice guy helped me put all those bricks into the back of my truck so I could get home quickly...
And then... All by myself, I had to take all those bricks and move them up a staircase from the driveway, across the front lawn, up the path, into the back yard, and stack them all nice and neat like. Tenacity, perseverance, perspiration, and a sheer determination, and I had the task done in about an hour.
Now what do we have? In order to clean up the trash, that is, in order to eliminate a bit of green from my back yard, I've increased the yard waste, but chopping down some bushes, generated some grass clippings from clearing out the path, put a huge amount of brick dust in my car, and deposited a number of bricks in a pile to be dealt with. Not to mention the introduction of 20 or so stakes and the accompanying twine.
After the next milestone, this stuff will all be put in its proper place, and all the trash will eventually get cleaned up, even if it does take a couple more seasons. In the end, we'll have a wonderfully organized yard with minimized waste, all nice and tidy and orderly.
As I tucked Yasmin into bed tonight, we started thinking about the things we'll be doing with our newly organized space. Word of forts, with water features dividing them. Park benches, with arbors, gazebos, and waterfalls. In the fullness of time, we'll actually implement all these features. For now, we're just going to have to deal with all the trash we've just generated.

In spite of great improvements in early diagnosis and interventions, most children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are unlikely to live independently when they reach adulthood. We have been conducting research on novel computer-based interventions with the goal of promoting social skills. Working with 26 children with ASD, their teachers, and other stakeholders, we have iteratively developed a set of activities based on applications that run on multitouch tablets. Our observations suggest these activities increased pro-social behaviors such as collaboration and coordination, augmented appreciation for social activities, and provided children with novel forms of expression.

After I clicked on the button and get to the "Add a Gravity Forms Directory" screen, I chose the form and then clicked on the button "Insert Directory" - nothing happens, I'm kept on that screen. When I press the cancel button I am taken out of the screen. It is as if the "Insert Directory" button is not functioning on my WP. What should I do? Thank you, George

It wasn't a surprise that Apple announced iOS 6, its next mobile OS. It is, undoubtedly, also a prelude to a new phone coming in the fall. But there's plenty to love about it now, from the Siri update to Facebook integration to a new Maps application and much more (in fact, more than 200 new features). The OS is in developers' hands now, and will ship, Apple says, in the fall. The OS will run on the iPhone 3GS, iPhone generation 4 devices, including the iPod Touch, the iPad 2, and the new iPad. In addition to some of the great new features detailed in the next several slides, iOS 6 includes shared photo streams and an enhanced email client that includes a VIP list inbox and the ability to insert photos and videos as you compose a message, for example. You can also create per mailbox passwords, for even better security control on the device. (Oh, and you can refresh your inbox with a nifty little pulldown.)

Insiders reported yesterday, on Wednesday December the 7th, that they bought and sold $425 million of stock in over 420 separate transactions in 233 different companies, including $392 million worth of stock sold and $33 million worth of stock bought. These transactions have to be reported within two days of the trade, so the transactions reported yesterday occurred sometime earlier this week. We culled through these 420 or so insider buys and sells (based on yesterday's SEC Forms 3, 4, and 5 filings), as part of our daily and weekly coverage of insider trades, and present here the most notable trades reported yesterday (for a general discussion on how to interpret insider trades, please look at the end of this article):
Gilead Sciences Inc. (NASDAQ:GILD): GILD is a developer of therapeutics to treat viral, fungal, respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. Insiders currently hold 5.6 million or 0.7% of outstanding shares, and on Wednesday, CEO John Martin reported that he exercised options and sold the resulting 46,300 shares (under a 10b5-1 trading plan) for $1.9 million. This is in addition to the 54,020 shares that we reported insiders sold on Monday (including the 46,020 shares sold by CEO John Martin), and the 105,320 shares we reported as being sold by insiders just last month, so that insiders have sold a total of 205,640 shares in just over a month for almost $9 million. This is significant due to its size and is it represents a strong pick-up in insider selling given that insiders sold only an additional 69,020 shares in the remainder (almost two months) of the prior three months (buying none).
GILD shares have performed well recently, up over 10% so far this year, as recent quarter operating results have beat estimates and there is optimism about its deep pipeline of drugs under development. Its shares trade at a discount 9-10 forward P/E, and at 5.0 P/B, compared to averages of 22.2 and 11.3 respectively for the biotech group. However, shares took a hit recently over its proposed acquisition of Pharmasset Inc. (VRUS) for $137 per share, announced November 21st, as the transaction is expected to be dilutive to GILD earnings through 2014 and accretive beyond that. The acquisition of VRUS is expected to be a game-changer for GILD in terms of making it a premier player in the hepatitis C space.
GMX Resources (GMXR): GMXR is engaged in the exploration and production of oil and natural gas in the U.S. It has interests in two oil shale resources, including the Williston Basin in ND and MT, and the DJ Basin in WY. Insiders currently hold 7.3 million or 12.7% of outstanding shares and on Wednesday, four insiders reported that they bought a total of 148,000 shares for $0.23 million. This included CFO James Merrill (10,000 shares) and Directors David Lucke (33,000 shares), Jon McHugh (5,000 shares) and Ken Kenworthy (100,000 shares). This is significant in terms of the size, the number of insiders who bought, and that insider buying is relatively unusual at GMXR given that they bought only an additional 36,500 shares during the past year (selling none).
GMXR shares currently trade at the lows after a rough three years during which they have dropped from an $88 high in 2008 to below $2 currently as concerns have mounted over poor operating results (the company has missed on its earnings for each of the last four quarters) and liquidity issues. Although very speculative, GMXR holds promise due to its natural gas reserves, hence the heavy insider buying this week can be interpreted as a sign that shares may have bottomed out at these levels.
Galena Biopharma Inc. (NASDAQ:GALE): GALE, formerly known as RXi Pharmaceuticals, is a biotech company focused on developing target cancer therapies. Insiders currently hold 1.2 million or 2.8% of outstanding shares and on Wednesday CEO Mark Ahn and Principal Accounting Officer Kwang Lee reported that they bought a total of 15,000 shares. While a small purchase, it is significant in that insider buying is uncommon at GALE as the only other time in the last year that insiders bought was in April when CEO Mark Ahn bought 10,000 shares, and subsequent to that purchase shares more than doubled in the next six weeks just prior to the company announcing positive NeuVax phase 2 efficacy results. GALE shares currently trade near all-time lows, and yesterday surged more than 20% intra-day after the company announced five-year efficacy data from the ongoing NeuVax phase 2 trials.
Flotek Industries Inc. (NYSE:FTK): FTK provides oilfield chemicals, artificial lift, and down-hole drilling and production equipment to the oil and gas industry. Insiders currently hold 3.4 million shares or 7.3% of outstanding shares, and on Wednesday EVP & COO Steven Reeves reported that he sold 49,020 shares for $0.5 million. This is in addition to the 64,000 shares that we reported were sold by four insiders (including a President and three Directors) in November, so that five insiders now have sold a total of 113,020 shares in the last month. This is significant due to its size, the number of insiders selling, and in that it is a pick-up in insider selling given that over the last year insiders sold only an additional 84,500 shares. FTK shares currently trade near three-year highs, and at a premium 15 forward P/E, and at 6.7 P/B, compared to averages of 11.2 and 2.7 respectively for its peers in the oil field services group.
Reynolds American Inc. (NYSE:RAI): RAI manufactures cigarettes and other tobacco products primarily under the Camel, Doral and Kool brands. Insiders currently hold 243.1 million or 41.7% of outstanding shares. On Wednesday, British American Tobacco (NYSEMKT:BTI), beneficial owner of 242 million shares via Brown & Williamson Holdings Inc. (B&W), reported that it sold 1.4 million shares for $59 million. This is in addition to the 1.4 million shares that we reported B&W sold just last week. RAI, along with many other tobacco stocks, has been trading in all-time high territory, and is up over 150% since hitting the bottom in early 2009. Its shares currently trade at a premium 13-14 forward P/E, and at 3.6 P/B, compared to averages of 12.1 and 11.8 respectively for its peers in the tobacco group.
Akron Inc. (NASDAQ:AKRX): AKRX develops diagnostic and therapeutic pharmaceutical products, hospital drugs, and injectable pharmaceuticals in specialty areas such as ophthalmology, rheumatology, anesthesia and antidotes, among others. Insiders currently hold 6.6 million shares or 7.3% of outstanding shares, and on Wednesday, CFO Timothy Dick reported that he exercised options and sold the resulting 50,000 shares (regular sell) for $0.55 million. This is significant given the size of the sale and also since insider selling is uncommon at AKRX, and over the past three years insiders have sold only an additional 28,469 shares. AKRX shares currently trade at all-time highs, up over twelve-fold from the 2009 lows, and at a premium 29 forward P/E and 6.8 P/B compared to averages of 13.2 and 2.9 respectively for its peers in the generic drugs group.
Fortinet Inc. (NASDAQ:FTNT): FTNT develops unified threat management systems to provide security and networking functions through integrated circuits to enterprises, service providers and government entities worldwide. Its solutions are designed to integrate multiple levels of security protection, including firewall, virtual private networking, antivirus, intrusion prevention, web filtering, antispam and wide area network acceleration. Insiders currently hold 20.3 million shares or 13.3% of outstanding shares, and on Wednesday, CEO Ken Xie reported that he sold 120,000 shares (under a 10b5-1 plan) for $3.0 million.
This is in addition to the 29,998 shares that another two insiders reported selling last week, which is a strong pick-up in insider selling given that insiders sold only an additional 113,640 shares in the last three months. FTNT shares trade within striking range of its all-time high, up three-fold from its IPO price in late 2009 on the back of strong operating results every quarter recently, and it currently trades at a premium 47 forward P/E and 11.5 P/B compared to averages of 41.2 and 4.4 respectively for its peers in the integrated computer systems group.
