Underachieving Bills entertain Dolphins
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — The Miami Dolphins were the team featured on "Hard Knocks" last summer. Funny, the Buffalo Bills haven't needed a TV series title to define their past 12 seasons.
This year in Buffalo so far has been no different. Defying the high preseason expectations, the Bills have bumbled their way into an all-too-familiar position of challenging to be the AFC East's least for a fifth consecutive season.
That's right, it's the same spot supposedly reserved for the Dolphins after their shortcomings were exposed to HBO's national cable audience.
Bills linebacker Nick Barnett wasn't paying attention then. And he couldn't care less about the projections now.
"I don't make money judging expectations and things like that," Barnett said, before turning his attention to the state of the Bills. "I think in this locker room, we would definitely not have foreseen us being in this predicament and the record we have."
The Bills (3-6), with the offseason addition of high-priced defensive end Mario Williams, weren't supposed to be this bad. And the Dolphins (4-5), with rookie coach Joe Philbin, rookie quarterback, Ryan Tannehill and many holes to fill, weren't supposed to be this good.
Jim Kelly versus Dan Marino this is not. But tonight, the prime-time lights will once again shine on these two longtime division rivals in a game that will determine who stays in the postseason picture for at least another week.
The Bills haven't given up hope, despite a 1-5 stretch that's put them in serious jeopardy of missing the playoffs for a 13th consecutive season, the longest current streak in the NFL.
"It only takes a spark to start a fire, and that spark is winning one football game," defensive tackle Kyle Williams said. "If we win one, I think guys feel good about making a run here at the end of the year."
The Dolphins understand what's at stake, too, and are eager to rebound from a two-game skid that included last weekend's sloppy 37-3 loss to Tennessee.
"I don't think by any means are we ready to shut this thing down," Tannehill said. "Our guys are resilient. We're realists. We know we didn't play well. We know we didn't perform like we're capable of. But we're ready to move forward."
Moving forward is key for Tannehill, whose development suddenly regressed Sunday after throwing three interceptions to match his worst outing he had three picks in a season-opening loss at Houston.
Tannehill bounced back from that game; Miami win four of the next six, although Matt Moore was behind center for most of the victory over the Jets when Tannehill was hurt early on. The Dolphins are confident the No. 8 draft pick out of Texas A&M can get them back on track.
"Ryan is very poised," running back Reggie Bush said. "I told him these types of games build character. These games are going to come and go, make us stronger in the long run."
Bush needs to rebound, too. He was benched after losing a fumble six minutes in against the Titans.
"I think we're all a little happy to have this game on Thursday, because it gives a chance to erase this last game and get back to football very quickly," Bush said. "I know that I've bounced back before. I'll bounce back again, and we'll be OK."

I have a desktop AIR app that sends vars to a php page, which then rewrites a new css style file. After the vars are uploaded, I set off a refresh function in AIR that refreshes an html display pane, so you can see the css style changes on the html page.
I was working great, but since I have changed hosts, I find I have to send the vars twice to see changes.
I thought maybe the problem was that AIR was displaying the new page before php had a chance to write the new css file, but even after putting a 2 second delay timer on the refresh, the problem still exists.
I have also made the refresh function URL request append date and time as in:
varSend2 = new URLRequest("http://www.blah.com/"?time=" + new Date().getTime());
Is there a trick to force the html display in AIR to display the new CSS settings first time around?
Thanks guys.
Download the CSS (possibly with a query string appended URL so that you get the new copy) first. When the load is completed download the HTML.
Kenneth Kawamoto
Gidday Kenneth
So download the CSS to AIR? The HTML pane I'm using is just a display that loads an online webpage - I'm not actually using HTML in AIR. So my programs updates the CSS on the server, and then displays the HTML page. So I'm not sure how downloading CSS would fit in with it. The page gets it's CSS from the server. Would you be kind enougho elaborate please?
AIR is using cached old CSS, so if you download the new one AIR should use the new CSS - that's my theory.
Kenneth Kawamoto
Hi Kenneth
I've been playing with this for a while now, but cannot figure out how to download the css file to AIR and make AIR use it on the external HTML file loaded into the HTML pane.
To load the html page, I'm using:
var htmlPane:HTMLLoader = new HTMLLoader();
varSend2 = new URLRequest("my url");
then, once I've checked it's loaded:
I can figure out how to apply external css to html that's been loaded into a text field, but not html loaded using HTMLLoader.
Can you please point me in the right direction so I can research it?
Thanks again.
First of all try setting HTMLLoader.cacheResponce to false before you load your HTML.
If that doesn't work try to load the CSS before you load the HTML. To load a CSS use URLLoader. You may try appending new Date().time to the URL. When the CSS is loaded you can see the result to see if the new version is loaded, but other than that you don't do anything with it. Then finally after the CSS is loaded, load the HTML with HTMLLoader. Because the new CSS has ben downloaded and cached, AIR should use the new CSS (in theory )
Kenneth Kawamoto
Cheers Kenneth.
Something screwy is going on.
I've set up:
var htmlPane:HTMLLoader = new HTMLLoader(); // and later before I load the page...
htmlPane.cacheResponse = false;
htmlPane.useCache = false;
I make a background colour live edit to in my AIR app to black, check the page in Firefox, and the background is black. Then I check the same page in AIR, and the background is the old colour - green. I continually make the editor update the page to a black background, and EVENTUALLY it turns black in AIR. Then other times, it turns black instantly.
If an external browser is seeing the new css, why isn't webkit in AIR - especially when I'm using cacheResponse = false?
The chances are that you're viewing HTML before your new CSS is uploaded fully. Do download the CSS and verify said background colour has been updated - you haven't tried this, have you?
Kenneth Kawamoto
LOL - noooooooo. But I have now, and still having probs.
I made a function that loads the css file (with data and time appended). Once loaded, it goes to the load HTML page function, at the top of which I have trace(event.target.data); so I get an output of the css file data.
I try changing the background color, and the new colour is definitely in the css file output, yet webkit in AIR loads the HTML page with the old color. But it's inconsistent, as sometimes it'll will display the new color just fine.
I'm trying a few other things to see if they work, but any other ideas?
Try StageWebView to see if the CSS gets updated.
Kenneth Kawamoto
StageWebView is just as hit n' miss, although I will replace htmlLoader with it, as it's simpler to get scroll bars up, so thanks for putting me on to it Kenneth.
As an experiment, I set up a reload button. Whenever one of my css edits doesn't show up, I keep pressing the reload button until it does. Sometimes it takes over ten reloads before AIR loads the new css (even though the new css is instantly available in IE or FF). Then other times, the css is there instantly.
Is there a way to programatically force a cache flush in AIR? htmlPane.cacheResponse = false; and htmlPane.useCache = false; weren't making a difference.
Thanks for your help on this one Kenneth - if anything, I'm learning new AS3 coding from this!
I don't think AIR has a built-in function to flush cache. You may be able to delete files in Tempolary Internet Files from AIR, but I've never tried that
One thing you can try is in your HTML <link> tag append a time stamp to the CSS URL so that your HTML requests new copy of CSS every time.
Kenneth Kawamoto
Thanks for your help on this one Kenneth - I'll give the time stamp a crack.

Chinese >Yank Sing Restaurant
101 Spear St (One Rincon Ctr), San Francisco, CA | Directions 9410537.789018 -122.391507
Mon-Fri 11am-3pm
Sat-Sun 10am-4pm
Neighborhoods: South Beach, Central East
Love the entire frenetic experience of this huge Rincon Center dim sum dining hall, from the endless parade of cart pushers hawking everything from soup dumplings to Peking duck to the collective roar of conversation that never seems to flag. Get the red cabbage salad, snow pea dumplings, spinach dumplings & duck!
I have to agree with the others. Good Dim Sum, but overpriced. The atmosphere is very nice. I think it's great for business lunch so that you can get a write off. kinda torn on this one. I think if you have money to burn then why not try it and have a good meal.
Good but expensive – Good dimsum, but it was way overpriced. The value of the food could not compensate for the price I've paid.
Ridiculously expensive! – The dim sum is good but come on. I've been plenty of times and it's located right by my work. Usually it's business lunches so i haven't paid for it myself expect for one day. Went to lunch with my husband. Not terribly hungry just wanted to hang out so we didn't order much. No drinks just tea and it came to about $70 dollars! For lunch! I've been to places like Boulevard and don't have a problem spending the money but its dim sum for goodness sake!
THE BEST DIM SUM – We have been fans of Yank Sing since they were in Chinatown, 2 locations before the Rincon Center. We always come for the fresh ingredients, consistent high quality dim sum whenever we travel to San Francisco. It is very expensive but their attention to detail, from the food to service, is admirable.
Way overpriced! – Very pushy dim sum cart food pushers. However, the food was excellent, I would go back there in a NY minute. Every dish we had was wonderful. Atmosphere is upscale bad Chinese restaurant, so nothing to brag about there. I just wish it wasn't so dangnummit expensive. If the bill was half the price for all the food we had, I would eat there more than once a year.
Overpriced! – The atmosphere is great. The waiters & waitresses are pleasant. We had reservations, so, no waiting. The food is good.
I've been wanting to eat here for several months now. Now that I've finally had lunch... I would recommend it if you want to eat at a nice and clean location. But, it's TOOOOOOOOO EXPENSIVE! It's OVER priced!!!! I couldn't believe it! I would recommend going to You's Dim Sum 675 Broadway Street instead.
Rude Maitre d' & average food = Do NOT go here – We waited 45 minutes mid Sunday afternoon for a table. The one thing will give this place is a pretty location. Everything else was mediocre to poor. The food was mediocre and the maitre d' was downright poor in his manner.
We drove an hour each way to try this restaurant and were very disappointed. We can certainly find better food and better service almost anywhere.
so so dim sum – When i read about all positive rating, I was excited to go to Yang Sang since i m a dim sum lover. However, i tried it today and i was disappointed. They are not as impressive as i read. They are just average, clean, high price and overrated.. The food is not extraordinary. And for two people, easily paid for eighty bucks for dim sum which i think is little overpriced. But the location is great.
Overrated, Overpriced, Underwhelming Dim Sum Experience – I went to citysearch in search of a great dim sum restaurant. Yank Sing rated extremely high with great reviews so my husband and I were really excited to taste and see if it lived up to the reviews. Sadly, we were greatly underwhelmed. We visited the Stevenson location which was a nice location with a very friendly wait staff that was extremely attentive.
I knew that our meal would be pricey from the reviews on citysearch but I thought that the meal/flavors would be worth the price. I was dissapointed that Yank Sing did not have a huge selection of dim sum to choose from: a fried cart, a steamed dumpling cart and a rice bun cart, that was it. I'm used to eating at dim sum restaurants (found in Los Angeles - Empress Pavilion/NBC) teaming with a plethora of dim sum carts of dumplings, fresh braised vegetables (we were served cold chinese broccoli at Yank Sing), noodle and soup carts, and the list goes on and on.
The flavor of the dim sum was lackluster. I felt I was eating Americanized dim sum and was left wanting a lot more. I tried their signature pork dumpling dish, which the host gladly showed me how to eat on a spoon with their signature sauce. It was, well...ok, but just ok, nothing to be blown away by from a signature dish. At the end of our meal, we paid our $75 bill and walked away thinking, well, we came, we tried, and we'll never come back. It's just not worth the price of entry.
What's funny is that, still craving the dim sum experience that I was hoping for, I went back to citysearch to look for another restaurant the next morning and found Canton Dim Sum restaurant on Folsom, just blocks from Yank Sing. Canton is not at all fancy...in fact, if you were a restaurant ambience snob, then you would not even consider walking in this outdated looking establishment. But you would be missing out on a gem of a dim sum place. Canton had 3x more dim sum variety and was only 1/3 the price compared to Yank Sing. Yumm!
great dim sum - but check out prices ahead of time – i come to yank sing pretty much everytime i visit san francisco. this is some of the best dim sum that i have had - but it pays to know the price of what you are ordering and not impulse buy here. of course, this is hard to do with gourmet dim sum such as soft shell crab and chunks of gingered sea bass constantly wafting past your table. our last visit was a bill for $80 for two people, which i thought was quite high. a small soft shell crab was $19, which we didn't know ahead of time. regardless, if you want a treat and are willing to spend the money - then this is the place to go. great dim sum, fabulous service and nice restaurant.

It looks like Manny Pacquiao vs. Juan Manuel Marquez part four is going to happen on Nov. 10, long before a Pacquiao rematch against Timothy Bradley takes place.
Missed any of the major stories coming out of the Manny Pacquiao vs. Timothy Bradley boxing bout that took place this past Sat., June 9, 2012, in Las Vegas? We've got you covered right here with links galore!
Bob Arum, Top Rank promoter, is now saying a rematch between Manny Pacquiao and Timothy Bradley may not take place unless Nevada launches an investigation into the result of their bout from this past Sat., June 9, 2012, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
Outraged over the Manny Pacquiao split decision loss to Timothy Bradley and wondering just what the heck those judges were thinking? Hear from Duane Ford himself, one of the two men who scored the bout for Bradley on June 9, 2012, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Was there legitimate tomfoolery in the Manny Pacquiao vs. Timothy Bradley fight? Some believe it to be so and they look no further than Bob Arum and comments he made at the post-fight press conference for evidence.
A fascination situation has arisen with the Miami Heat vs. Boston Celtics game and the Manny Pacquiao vs. Timothy Bradley fight. The promoters of the big boxing match don't want the main event to go on before the NBA game is over and they've spent a lot of money to ensure that doesn't happen.
If you missed the Floyd Mayweather vs. Miguel Cotto boxing match from this past Saturday night, don't worry -- we've got you covered. Here's a comprehensive set of links to all the major stories coming out of the event.
Who will Floyd Mayweather fight next? He says he wants Manny Pacquiao but his promoter, Bob Arum, is once again getting in the way of making it happen.
Boxing blowhard Bob Arum is doing what he does best: Taking potshots at the UFC machine.
Floyd Mayweather has publicly called out Manny Pacquiao on Twitter. Does this mean the fight is going to happen on May 5?

TRAVELS WITH HERODOTUS … Rysard Kapuściński was a journalist who grew up in Communist Poland, writing behind the Iron Curtain, an eye on the censors, without many books. But he overcame those limitations to work as a world-renowned journalist because of a desire to cross boundaries. A desire to see beyond his narrow world … In his last book, Travels with Herodotus (Random House, New York, 2007), Kapuściński takes us on a adventure, the foreign desks of his reporter's life, globe-trotting from country to continent, highlighting some of the incidents that stand out. But it's not just a travelogue. He weaves in his readings of Herodotus – one of the first books that took him out of the dismal totalitarian gray of his circumspect world and opened up another place, where the sea was wine-dark and the stories bloody curious … Having just read Thucydides in a gorgeous new edition, it was fascinating to have Kapuściński asking questions, reflecting on historical lore, and then contrasting what was happening between the Greeks and Persians with what was happening in the world now … Highly recommended.
DANNY'S PLACE … We walked the three-acre riparian zone along the Fruita-area creek, within sight of the Book Cliffs and Colorado National Monument, that constituted my friend's home. End of summer but still hot. Before the first big chill set in … And a pulsing strobe of energy danced about bushes of snowy purple fleabane. Clouds of sulphurs – faded yellow butterflies – alternating flutter & freeze. Dozens & dozens. Furiously celebrating their own short lives.
SOLAR MINIMUM … "Anyone else been following the depth of our current solar minimum? Less solar activity than seen for the last century? Are we entering another Maunder Minimum (last "Little Ice Age" of 1645-1750?) Check it out at <spaceweather.com>. Couple that with the forming El Nino for winter 09/10 and our San Juan Mtns. The coming winter might be a doozie (like the last two weren't bad enough)" … Thanks to ace local cartoonist-in-retirement Jonathan Webb for that alert ... While no one wants to minimize the contributing anthropogenic effects of our carbon-based societies on climate change, truth is, as geomorphologist Dr. Rob Blair of Durango likes to point out, it's the sun that rules climate on our planet.
ENTHEOGENETICS … The cannabinoid cannabidol is reportedly a promising alternative to chemotherapy in breast cancer treatment. Cannabidol blocks the expression of the id-1 gene responsible for aggressive spread of breast cancer cells. There are indications it also serves the same function in brain cancer.
SOUNDING THE ALARM … According to regional ecology guardian Lance Christie of Moab, earlier this year James Lovelock was quoted in the Irish Times as predicting the Arctic's floating summer sea ice will be all melted within 30 years … NASA reported in 2009 that current trends will result in ice-free Arctic seas by 2013. When that occurs, the polar caps will no longer reflect sunlight back into space and, instead, the ocean will absorb sunlight, heating up. The permafrosts in northern Canada and Siberia will thaw out, releasing carbon dioxide … At the same time, the tropical forests, which play a critical role in taking CO2 from the atmosphere, will die out. Global temperatures will rise by between five and six degrees in a short period of time, rendering most of the world uninhabitable for the vast majority of mankind … According to Christie, "What sets Lovelock apart from other climate scientists, most notably the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), is the swift timetable he envisages and his belief that such change is irreversible and will take most of the human race with it. Says Lovelock, "It is out of our hands" … When the floating ice finally melts, it will be the equivalent of nearly all of the CO2 we have put in the atmosphere to date. So, the earth will begin to join in the act of global heating, doing it in a big way. The Earth is already moving to its hot stage. The hotter it gets, the faster it goes -- and we can't stop it … It appears, from all unbiased evidence, that humans just aren't clever enough to handle the planet at the moment. We can't even handle our own financial affairs. The worst possible thing that could happen to us, adds Christie, is achieving the green dream of taking charge and "saving the planet" … Insists Christie, "I'd sooner a goat as a gardener than humans in charge of the earth" … Lovelock says that a process called biochar carbon sequestration, which is gaining increasing credence, may be the only hope for mankind. It involves taking farmyard waste, such as wheat chaff, turning it into charcoal and then burying it, either on land or at sea, to prevent it releasing CO2 into the atmosphere. Lovelock says Ireland and New Zealand will be the most fortunate countries on earth, a lifeboat for humanity – but a lifeboat can only take so many passengers. If you are the captain of a lifeboat, you have to decide who you can let in and who you can't. Otherwise everybody would sink."
WEB ALERT … Due to recent budget cuts and the rising cost of electricity, gas and oil – as well as current market conditions – the Light-at-the-End-of-the-Tunnel has been turned off. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Here's a little piece composed of tight four-line stanzas. Form is funny. Inspirations seem to start to take shape in a form, if you're a writer. And if you're a poet, you play with that. The words, the story, they become the playdough you knead into relevance, insight. This title is long, but it's a playful nod at decade and age and seems worth the length. Rather than hold to conventional punctuation, I use mid-line bullets to separate within stanzas – a style I found myself drawn to years ago.

No more scratched door!
People in my house seem to scratch the door frame as though there is a man with a knife about to get them and they need to find the key-hole using long swiping actions, etching their fear into the door. The light adds a slight bulk to the key but means that the correct key can be found easily and that ever elusive key-hole. Mr Wooden Door: "Thank you!" I would give it 5 stars but my door key is brass and this item is metallic - clash!
How cool
We have a recessed lock barrel and it can be difficult to locate the slot when I come home from night shift. This unit has been a revelation. It has made the Key quite thick and it would spoil the cut of skin tight jeans. It looks a little flimsy but fits well and works a dream. It's just the best gift for anyone. I gave one to my wife who thinks its just the best. It's powerful enough to light the ground in front of you on an unlit path. The other slight issue is I don't think you can change the batteries which is a shame.
Mini Key Torch
Life is so much simpler now when I arrive home in the dark, and try to find where to fit the key. The Locklite Mini Key Torch is exactly what I needed. A little torch and a key means using two hands which you don't always have because they are full of shopping. However, this little gem becomes part of the key and with a little squeeze shines a light exactly where it is needed. Everyone with the key to the door needs one. Guess what I am giving for Christmas this year...
Mini Key Torch
This Locklite Mini Key Torch is a great idea and I use it regularly. The 'torch' part goes over the head of the key and snaps in place. It's a good fit for the key I have but it might be a bit bulky. I'm not sure how this can be made any smaller. Nevertheless, I'm using it and find it quite useful at night.
This Locklite Mini Key Torch is actually my second purchase of one of these! I got the first one as a present for my dad whose right eye is not the best and often had trouble getting his key in the door. He loved it an constant use over a few years unfortunately wore it out so he asked me to order him him him another. Highly recommended.
locklite key torch
I have been buying these regularly for the last four years. They're brilliant. Nearly everyone I know has been afforded one of them as extra Christmas treats. I have a friend with an old B&B in a village with no street lights. The guests can now get back from the local pub and into the house no problem. A little fiddly to assemble admittedly but you must follow the instructions. I've only had two in four years.
Light, bright, life-saver
I bought this as a Xmas stocking-filler for my husband nearly 3 years ago and it's still going strong on the first battery. We live in the sticks, no street lighting, and this marvellous little gadget has helped us find the keyhole and get back into the house after a late evening many times. It also doubles as an emergency torch should you find yourself walking home in the dark. It is bright enough to light up the ground in front of you. The great thing is that it's on your house key, so you will have it with you at all times. Probably the best present that I've bought him in years!
Best stocking filler
Bought this for my teenage son who loves it. Great for coming home at night and not having to listen to him fumbling around trying to find the keyhole - we even have an outdoor light but is blocked by shadow. Light is nice and bright as shown when he tries to blind us all with it. Seriously though, job well done.

Gravy Boat
Plymouth features embossed pumpkins, acorns and ears of corn on a warm, creamy white surface making it ideal for Thanksgiving or any autumn occasion. Platters and plates feature scalloped rims accented with gently flowing, weathered lines. Sure, we use this for gravy, but it's just the thing to serve morning milk for cereal, spaghetti sauce at dinner or ice cream toppings for dessert. Dishwasher safe. Gravy boat holds 20 ounces.

Talk about up close and personal!! We took our family to the Peoria Zoo on Tuesday to experience the new Africa Exhibit, and we were not let down. Shortly after coming upon the lion area, the female locked in on what she hoped would be her prey.....my 2 year old son! She was perched upon a rock and when she was ready, she charged the glass, and started pawing at him. He was startled at first, but then gave a sheepish grin!

Such keys or other articles which may be impounded in order to immobilize the watercraft may be returned to the owner or person in question upon proper identification if it appears there is no longer any reasonable cause to believe that the subject watercraft will be operated by a person under the influence of or affected by intoxicating liquor or any drug.

Has anyone gotten Class of Heroes 2 working? I get a blackscreen upon loading both for the MINI and PKG
hey guys i've made a translated version of the prompt.exe file for 1.5.1 for anyone who wants it.
translated into english that is all u do is extract the rar into the bite directory and overwrite the prompt.exe file which deals with the homebrew section the rar also contains the original too.
So I found two tools. the simply titles psp 2 ps3 and bite, both seem to convert Psp games to pkg to be played on the ps3.
Which one should I use?
Is 1.5.1 the last verison of bite.
And does one of them allow me to alter the controls, for example adding a function to the left analog stick of the ps3 controller?

Longboat pays tribute to Sept. 11
Date: September 11, 2009
by: Kurt Schultheis | City Editor
For the eighth year in a row, Longboat Key Public Works employees worked three additional hours Sept. 10 to line Gulf of Mexico Drive with American flags. Each year on Sept. 11, 2,974 flags line Gulf of Mexico Drive, one for each victim on the terrorist attacks in 2001.
Using four golf carts, each equipped with approximately 700 flags, eight Public Works employees line the road from the former Longbeach Chevron on the north end to the town's welcome sign on the south end near the New Pass Bridge. The flags are sponsored by the Longboat Key, Lido Key, St. Armands Key Chamber of Commerce, which bought the flags for the first Sept. 11 Longboat Key tribute in 2002, and the town of Longboat Key.

Hodgson hopes for most serene win
Do they not like that?
Who said that English football fans are losing interest? A 90,000 sell-out at Wembley against the join-worst ranked team in international football suggests that they are wrong. A Friday night stroll is expected but still they come from far and wide.
Perhaps the fans have come to relive the glory days of Graham Taylor, when San Marino were put to the sword, both home and away, even though the memories will always be of Stuart Pearce's stumble and Davide Gualtieri's first minute finish in Bologna in the winter of 1993.
Earlier that year, the first of the matches in qualifying for USA '94 was played in front of a piddling 51,154 at Wembley, with England's line-up looking rather tasty featuring Paul Gascoigne, David Platt, John Barnes and Les Ferdinand. David Platt got four goals that night, in a 6-0 win, at a time when he was often his nation's chief goal threat.
Platt the player, years before he became Roberto Mancini's right-hand man, often got himself into the type of positions in which Tom Cleverley got himself into during England's last outing, the poorly received 1-1 draw with Ukraine. That night, Cleverley missed two golden chances, and a potentially costly draw put early pressure on England's hopes of basking in Rio sunshine. Roy Hodgson's honeymoon, such as it was, is almost over, and his confusing post-match comments had the adverse effect to that he expected.
"I am not prepared to accept this wasn't a great performance," he said then. Nothing less than heavy victory is acceptable on Friday.
Since then, Cleverley has located a scoring touch, though so far exclusively against Newcastle United. Nevertheless, he has played with the confidence of a man now trusted by his club manager and international coach. The absence of Frank Lampard surely places Cleverley in the starting line-up though his new captain, expectant father Wayne Rooney, may now see himself as a midfielder too. Michael Carrick may complete an all-Manchester United midfield.
In truth, though, Hodgson could field just about any team of English players and expect to beat San Marino, such is their lack of personnel. A team who labels its sole win against the mighty Liechtenstein - and that was in 2004 - is nothing less than cannon fodder. A cricket score is expected against a team who conceded 52 unanswered goals in singularly failing to qualify for Euro 2012. Sammarinese coach Giampaolo Mazza may be Europe's longest-serving national coach, having been in charge since 1998, but the standards expected of him are rather different to those that 90,000 - give or take a handful of visitors from the Most Serene Republic of San Marino - will demand from Hodgson and his men.
England player to watch - Wayne Rooney From flabby forward with a gashed leg to mean, lean, midfield machine, tabloid pariah to father of the year potential, the transformation of Wayne Rooney, this time in just over six weeks, has been rapid in a long career of ups and downs. Bestowed as captain for the day in the absence of Steven Gerrard, will he wear the responsibility well?
San Marino player to watch - Andy Selva That famous night against Liechtenstein saw Selva as the hero, when he grabbed the winning goal. If Sammarinese football has a hall of fame, then Selva is its all-time MVP. For a team that rarely scores, here is a man with an admirable strike rate. Eight goals in 55 is not bad at all, in fact. He is 36 years old now and his career has ebbed into Italy's Serie D. Will San Marino ever see his like again when he does hang up his boots?
Key Battle - Jermain Defoe v Aldo Simoncini Defoe is a player who goes through hot streaks and this is one of them. He usually goes through them when he has the faith of his manager, and as with Cleverley, enjoys the current support of Hodgson and indeed Spurs boss Andre Villas-Boas. He also likes a shot or two and so goalkeeper Aldo Simoncini can expect his hands to be warmed by some rockets. Or not, as the case may be. In San Marino's last qualifier, against Montenegro, he may have saved ten shots, but let in six goals.
Trivia: Straight off Wikipedia but impressive nonetheless: "San Marino is the oldest surviving sovereign state and constitutional republic in the world, as the continuation of the monastic community founded on September 3, 301, by stonecutter Marinus of Rab."
Stats: San Marino share the coveted joint-bottom spot of FIFA's ranking of 201st with both Bhutan and the Turks & Caicos Islands.
Odds: England are 1.01 to win at bet365, which is 100/1 if you are so inclined. San Marino are 126/1, and a draw is 25/1. A repeat of that 6-0 in 1992 is a mere 5/1.
Prediction: An England win.

A team led by Professor Mike Parker Pearson of University College London said Stonehenge, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is both older and had a different function than previously thought.
"In many ways our findings are rewriting the established story of Stonehenge," Parker Pearson said.
The archaeologists carried out a decade of research which included excavations, laboratory work and the analysis of 63 sets of ancient human remains.
They said the original Stonehenge appeared to have been a graveyard for elite families built around 3000 BC, 500 years earlier than the site that is famous today.
The remains of many cremated bodies were marked by the bluestones of Stonehenge, Pearson said.
Further analysis of cattle teeth from 80,000 animal bones excavated from the site also suggest that around 2500 BC, Stonehenge was the site of vast communal feasts.
These would have been attended by up to one tenth of the British population at one time in what Parker Pearson said resembled "Glastonbury festival and a motorway building scheme at the same time."
It seemed that ancient people travelled to celebrate the winter and summer solstices but also to build the monument, he said.
"Stonehenge was a monument that brought ancient Britain together," he said.

Awesome MEAT!!! – I was looking for a not so ordinary place to eat and have a romantic night out and found Grimpa. This restaurant is exquisite and the service is wonderful. The food is delicious and just non-stop delectable cuts of meat not to mention delicious salad bar. I would visit this place at least once a week.
WORST PLACE IN MIAMI. DO NOT BOTHER – This place has been the worst restaurant I have seen in years. They bring in people in by the busload. I'm not exaggerating. We went with a couple friends of ours, and we were so embarrassed to be there. You could not get to the front valet because they had two buses parked on the front. They took us upstairs, which looked like a wake room. Fluorescent ceiling lights, a small table with food (all you can eat?), and the faces of the guests were so grim! When we tried to ask the Manager Gabriel for a nicer table, the guy did not speak English and basically said we should have known they bring buses with tourists?! WE LEFT! NEVER AGAIN. WASTE OF TIME. We crossed the street to the Oceanaire Seafood which was great time. DO NOT EVEN BOTHER!
Authentic and good quality – Not all 17 cuts did reach our table, that's for sure, but the quality of the meat is great, the salad bar is long and fresh and the polenta... ah the polenta.
great steak – test test
With 17 cuts of Brazilian-seasoned meats hitting the table, gear up for a beefy experience at this stylish rodizio. – In Short
Brickell is no stranger to the "all-you-can-meat" rodizio niche. Porcao imported the concept two blocks away, several years ago. Grimpa's refreshing twist is easing up on the corporate power lunch feel with an inviting dining room that is perfect for couples or a group of your carnivore buddies. A massive salad bar and table-served side dishes will give your jaws a break from breaking down the succulent cuts. Good luck sticking to your diet.

FORTUNE -- Veronica Mars is back to solve a mystery: Can she raise enough money to fund her own movie, and is this the future of crowdfunding?
Rob Thomas, creator of Veronica Mars, the Warner Bros.-produced TV show about a high school student moonlighting as a private investigator, launched a Kickstarter campaign yesterday to attempt to fund a "movie to be released in early 2014," according to the campaign page. The program was cancelled in 2007 after three seasons on UPN and the CW, but it maintained a strong cult following. Now Thomas and the show's star, Kristen Bell (Forgetting Sarah Marshall, House of Lies) are both back to appease the masses -- or at least entice them enough to open their pocketbooks.
The Kickstarter campaign set a record on Wednesday, raising more than $1 million in just over four hours. Its fundraising goal -- $2 million in a month -- was essentially a lock. The drive had raised $2.6 million by Thursday morning and had hit its goal around 9 pm ET Wednesday, just under 11 hours after launch.
MORE: Interested in crowdfunding? 5 priceless pieces of advice
This overnight crowdfunding success is due in large part to Veronica Mars' existing fanbase -- jumping into the world of crowdfunding is much easier when you have a built-in audience to bring with you. But are crowdfunding platforms like Kickstarter or rival Indiegogo a place for major film or record studios to dump their old baggage? Could the bread and butter of the crowdfunding industry -- independent artists, filmmakers, entrepreneurs, and playwrights -- be crowded out by the big guys?
Indiegogo says no. In fact, campaigns like the Veronica Mars Movie Project that carry a little extra renown actually benefit other projects, says co-founder Danae Ringelmann. A campaign with reach can bring users to the site that may otherwise be unfamiliar with crowdfunding, she adds, although campaigns of this "big fish" nature would be encouraged regardless. "The power of crowdfunding is that it is empowering the world to fund what matters to them," she says. Whether that's a Veronica Mars movie or a cat café in London that raised more than $160,000 on Indiegogo in January, that's the beauty of crowdfunding.
Thomas is not the first campaign organizer to try and leverage crowdfunding to finance a previously established product. Last summer, musician Amanda Palmer raised $1.2 million on Kickstarter to fund an upcoming tour and album with her band, The Grand Theft Orchestra. Previously one half of the band Dresden Dolls, Palmer had a solid following before starting her campaign. She later angered backers when she asked musicians to play with her on tour without paying them and hosted a TED talk titled "The Art of Asking" explaining her Kickstarter campaign views that left many wondering why $1.2 million wasn't enough.
MORE: Crowdfunding boosters are not happy with Steve Rattner
A campaign on Indiegogo by the band OneRepublic raised nearly $90,000 following December's Sandy Hook school shooting in Newtown, Conn., and more than $1.3 million was raised by an Indiegogo campaign last fall to try and finance a Tesla museum.
In the case of Veronica Mars, Warner Bros., whose parent company also owns Fortune and which still owns the rights to the show, balked at the idea for a movie multiple times before Thomas took matters into his own hands. "Their reaction was, if you can show there's enough fan interest to warrant a movie, we're on board," wrote Thomas on the Kickstarter campaign page. "So this is it. This is our shot." It appears as if Thomas will not be alone; Shawn Ryan, creator of the FX crime drama The Shield, tweeted out that a movie based on another one of his shows, Terriers, a critical darling that lasted only one season in 2010, could be next in line for crowdfunding assistance:
Very interested to see how this Veronica Mars kickstarter goes. Could be a model for a Terriers wrap up film.—
Shawn Ryan (@ShawnRyanTV) March 13, 2013
In the meantime, the little guys may want to thank Warner Bros. for taking a pass on a Veronica Mars movie, consequently sending a new slew of potential investors to the site. "When a large campaign like this happens," says Ringelmann, "that brings the crowd."
Mystery solved.

Good. More stunts, less CGI/****ty camerawork to hide the fact that the actors can't/won't do the action."It's big and it is crazy," Bird said. "I think the craziest thing is that they're real they're not digital. That's Tom Cruise on the tallest building in the world, he's doing all that stuff," Bird said of Cruise's death-defying stunts.

ISBN 9780698154056 | 24 Sep 2013 | InterMix
Summary of Taking the Heat Summary of Taking the Heat Reviews for Taking the Heat An Excerpt from Taking the Heat
From Sylvia Day, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Crossfire novels, comes Taking the Heat, a novella of the Shadow Stalkers—where men in uniform are trained to enforce the rules. Out of uniform, those rules are made to be broken.
He had three days to fix everything. Three days to remind her of how good they were together. She was a captive audience…
Layla Creed and Deputy US Marshal Brian Simmons have a history that is as hot and heartbreaking as it is unforgettable. Now their paths have crossed once again. This time things are twice as hot. Layla—a protected witness—has been persuaded to come out of hiding and testify in a sensational murder trial. But as far as Brian's concerned, there's an even more pressing problem.
Once Layla testifies she'll get sucked back into the Witness Protection Program. A new identity, a new location, a new occupation—and a new inspector to check up on her. In other words, out of his life forever. There is one more option—take Layla and go on the run. Rekindling what they once had should be easy. But a stranger in their shadow has plans of his own, forcing Brian and Layla to risk everything in the name of love.
Includes a preview of On Fire, another novella in the Shadow Stalkers series.
Taking the Heat previously appeared in Men Out of Uniform

Keke Palmer has a lot on her plate these days. She has a new album coming out, she plays Chilli in the new TLC movie, and she's taking on heavy drama in the new series "Full Circle", premiering October 9th on Directv. It's written and directed by playwright Neil LaBute and focuses on 11 characters who are all somehow connected. Each episode takes place in a restaurant and features a conversation between two of them. Keke plays a woman whose brother has killed himself and she confronts the man she blames for his death. She explained to Steve and Lisa how challenging this project was because the material was so deep and dark.
"Neil LaBute writes a lot of plays like that's the world he comes from...I had to do so many monologues it was like unbelievable so I had to really train myself to get used to these words so I could lob them to come out of me....I really had to get my head around this...when I had initially auditioned for this role it was not what I expected and then when I got the script and I realized oh wow this is some heavy, heavy, heavy stuff! I would allow the words to just hit me and listen to what I was saying and put the people to the images and just let it fill me up and allow myself to get into that emotional place."
Lisa also asked Keke how she felt about playing Chilli in the upcoming VH1 movie "Crazysexycool: The TLC Story."
"The girls and I worked so hard on this project not only because we work hard as actresses but also because we're huge fans of TLC ourselves. We know as fans what we would want to see and we wanted to make sure we gave the other fans that."
Unlike "Full Circle", Keke says this one didn't drain her emotionally...it actually wore her out physically. She told Lisa why she pretty much ate nuts and berries to get ready for the role.
"I had to work on the abs girl! I was like working so hard...she's known for being sexy, for having those abs right? I worked on my abs like crazy...it was the hardest thing ever but when I looked at the clip and saw my abs tears almost went down my eyes!"

When you look at the history of the Kennedy family, you see one of great tragedy. Of the four brothers in the Kennedy family, three had already died of something other than natural causes. Senator Ted Kennedy of Massachusetts finally succumbed to cancer at the age of 77, over a year after he was diagnosed with the disease and in doing so, thus ended one of the great political dynasties of our lifetime.
Senator Ted Kennedy had the distinction of being one of the most liberal Senators in Washington. He also had the distinction of being the most enduring, serving in the Senate beginning in November 1962, after winning a special election to fill the seat once held by his brother, John F. Kennedy. Even though as a conservative, I opposed him on nearly every issue, I can not deny he had a bulldog determination to fight for what he believed in.
The last cause was what he called the cause of his lifetime, health care reform. After going through brain surgery and then extensive radiation and chemotherapy, Senator Kennedy still found strength enough to find his way to the Senate and voice his opinion and concerns about the pending health care legislation.Read more »
