Must-see-movie of October 2012? Are you looking for a movie that will wake you up out of the hum-drum of your life, make you reflect on the power of memory, the human spirit, and love? Well then Looper is the movie that you should frequent.
This science-fiction film does everything in its power to break out of the stereotypes of science-fiction. Set in a dystopic future, Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays Joe, a drug-addicted assassin who kills…you probably didn't guess it…men from the future. Thirty years into the future, time-travel has been invented, and crime bosses have decided to use this highly illegal technology to dispose of bodies.
Not interested yet? Bruce Willis (that'll do it) plays Old Joe, who is sent back in time to be killed by Young Joe. Still follow me? He escapes, and Joe must kill Old Joe or else he'll be ousted by his own boss. Old Joe can defend himself against Young Joe, but can't kill him because doing so would be terminating himself. Using the power of a changing memory, Old Joe must protect himself and avoid being killed by himself all while trying to save the future from–
Well, I don't want to give too much away. Hopefully this has gotten you interested enough to go out to your local theater and support a movie that is both literary and action-packed in all of its plot-twists. It's one of the more intelligent and engaging movies I've seen in theaters for some time. So..what are you doing? Get out, go! Watch it!!!
[And here's an interview with the director. Enjoy!]

Methemoglobinemia is a blood disorder in which an abnormal amount of methemoglobin -- a form of hemoglobin -- is produced. Hemoglobin is the protein in red blood cells that carries and distributes oxygen to the body.
With methemoglobinemia, the hemoglobin can carry oxygen but is unable to release it effectively to body tissues.
Hemoglobin M disease; Erythrocyte reductase deficiency; Generalized reductase deficiency
This condition can be passed down through families (inherited or congenital). Or, it is caused by exposure to certain drugs, chemicals, or foods (acquired).
There are two forms of inherited methemoglobinemia. The first form is passed on by both parents. The parents usually do not have the condition themselves, but they carry the gene that causes the condition. It occurs when there is a problem with an enzyme called cytochrome b5 reductase .
There are two types of this form of methemoglobinemia:
The second form of inherited methemoglobinemia is called hemoglobin M disease. It is caused by defects in the hemoglobin protein itself. Only one parent needs to pass on the abnormal gene for the child to inherit the disease.
Acquired methemoglobinemia is more common than the inherited forms. It occurs in some people after they are exposed to certain chemicals and drugs, including:
The condition may also occur in infants who are very ill or who are fed too many vegetables containing nitrates (such as beets).
Symptoms of type 1 methemoglobinemia (erythrocyte reductase deficiency) include:
Symptoms of type 2 methemoglobinemia (generalized reductase deficiency) include:
Symptoms of hemoglobin M disease include:
Symptoms of acquired methemoglobinemia include:
Methemoglobinemia can be diagnosed with a blood test.
A baby with this condition will have a bluish skin color (cyanosis ) at birth or shortly afterward. Arterial blood gases and pulse oximetry tests may be done.
A medicine called methylene blue is used to treat severe methemoglobinemia. Methylene blue may be dangerous in patients who have or may be at risk for a blood disease called G6PD deficiency , and should not be used. If you or your child has G6PD deficiency, always tell your health care provider before receiving treatment.
Ascorbic acid may also be used to reduce the level of methemoglobin.
Alternative treatments include hyperbaric oxygen therapy and exchange transfusions .
In most cases of mild acquired methemoglobinemia, no treatment is needed. But you should avoid the medicine or chemical that caused the problem. Severe cases may need treatment, which may include a blood transfusion.
People with type 1 methemoglobinemia and hemoglobin M disease usually do well. Type 2 methemoglobinemia is much more serious, and usually causes death within the first few years of life.
People with acquired methemoglobinemia usually do very well once the drug, food, or chemical that caused the problem is identified and avoided.
Call your health care provider if you have a family history of methemoglobinemia and you develop symptoms of this disorder.
Call your health care provider or emergency services (911) immediately if you have severe shortness of breath .
Genetic counseling is recommended for couples with a family history of methemoglobinemia who are considering having children.

Kelly, why is this the first time I'm hearing of this place? Are you holding out on us?
The picture Norma posted of the "I fu&#ing love you man" paper plate next to the Van Halen logo paper plate in Best Pizza is priceless!
Norma,That was a very nice writeup on your NYC visit. And thank you for taking a photo (last photo in Reply 3 at http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,16573.msg161662.html#msg161662) showing one of the Occupiers that have been on the streets of NYC for some time. I hope you didn't give her any money or any of your pizza slices.Peter
Norma, when I go on and on (and on) about 4 minute bakes and steel plate for home ovens, the kind of pizza I'm referring to is Best Pizza. That's what NY style can and should be, but very rarely is. It may be a wood fired oven that used to be coal, but it's neither Neapolitan or Neo NY/Coal style pizza. It's a classic NY style slice and it completely massacres the typical, lifeless looking slices in the photos you posted earlier in the thread (Angelica?). 10 to 15 years ago, Joes, on a good day, could approximate this. Johnny's, in Mount Vernon, although they don't sell slices, is in a similar realm. 20 years ago, what I call the golden age of pizza, this quality of pie was much more common in the NY area, because the ovens ran hotter. These days, some deck ovens can produce these pies, but many can't. There's also a lot of pizzeria owners that have ovens that can make this, but, for whatever reason, won't turn up the dial.Kelly, why is this the first time I'm hearing of this place? Are you holding out on us?
I'm glad you got to visit Best Pizza and Mast Brothers Chocolate Norma. Did you like the chocolate?The square at Rizzo's looks pretty good Norma. BTW, how loud was the volume dial turned up on the music in Best Pizza? It can get pretty loud in there at times.To clarify, Norma had asked me to recommend some slice shops (not whole pie joints) which were close to the BQE, of which Best Pizza is very close to it (not too far from being under it). I also happen to think Best Pizza is currently offering one of the best slices I have yet to try in NYC. I also recommended Joe & Pat's in Staten Island since I thought Norma might be taking the Staten Island Expressway home and Joe & Pat's is just off I-278.Norma, in the last (3rd) picture of reply #6 (http://www.pizzamaking.com/forum/index.php/topic,16573.msg161667.html#msg161667), the pizza from the pita place you posted almost looks like it has Zatar spices as a topping. What is on that pizza?Peter, I burst out laughing and spit a little coffee on my monitor reading your post and looking at the picture you were referring to.Scott, I've mentioned Best Pizza a few times here now.....so I'm not holding back. BTW, I know this sounds silly, but the simple addition of the sesame seeds Best Pizza puts on near the rim of their white pizza is pure genius....they go so well with the caramelized onions on their white pizza. The regular slice at Best Pizza is a literal time warp back to days past in NYC.The picture Norma posted of the "I fu&#ing love you man" paper plate next to the Van Halen logo paper plate in Best Pizza is priceless! You may get bombarded with very loud hip-hop music blaring at Best Pizza (which is fine by me), but this place epitomizes a neighborhood slice joint to be proud of. And then there are the sandwiches there.....
Yes, Norma, the Pennsylvania Dutch region wasn't part of the golden age. Neither were large sections of New Jersey. In all fairness, though, your area probably has incredible German specialties that we New Yorkers have never had the pleasure to sample.And, just because Lancaster didn't have a 'Best Pizza' style of slice then doesn't mean they can't have one now *wink* *wink* The golden age that inhabited the NYC area 20 years ago could, if I get my way, inhabit the whole world sometime in the immediate future. Everyone on the planet deserves a Best Pizza slice- and not for $3.50 either
I sure wouldn't know how to go about cloning a Best Pizza.

Whether you are a high school junior/senior thinking about college, a college student in-between semesters, or someone just out of school, summer offers precious time to study and to play. The Butler Admissions guest blog wrote about some great suggestions for spending your summer, and of course I have to add my two cents!
I've done things a bit differently every summer since I graduated from high school. Let's recap, shall we?
- Summer after I graduated from high school: I was lucky enough to travel the world with both my grandparents and my nuclear family, then to dance for a good chunk of the rest of the summer at home.
- After freshman year: I was a nanny three-four days a week and danced on my off days.
- After sophomore: I attended a summer dance intensive.
- After junior year: I participated in Butler Summer Institute doing English research… and danced.
- After senior year: So far I've finished that last French class required to graduate, danced in the Southern Illinois Music Festival, and am currently teaching movement classes to children. Soon I will move to Tulsa, OK!
In the process of doing each of these different activities I've come to appreciate the importance of two things: work and play.
Those two about cover the gamut of options, n'est-ce pas? But really, working, whether it be as a nanny, researcher, dancer, or teacher truly drove home the lessons I learned in class. Even if I didn't quite understand everything said in my Teaching Analysis of Classical Dance class last semester, I am now remembering little details, seeing them played out in front of me. Even if I didn't always realize the lessons in professionalism and technique my dance classes at Butler imparted, I found myself drawing on them for reference while dancing in southern Illinois.
However, as a type-A all the way, I was surprised to realize the equal importance of playing. After my summer of BSI and English classes and the stress of trying to keep in ballet-shape while conducting a huge research project, I entered senior year a bit tired. No worries, right? However, by the second semester, I think I had burned out a little with my English studies. Dancing, no problem. (Which is good news, since that's what I'll be doing full time next year!) Writing another English paper? The thought kind of made me gag. Already with a few weeks break, I'm back on my reading diet of Dylan Thomas… but I want to hold off on that paper for a few more months at least.
So take a risk this summer, be it structured (a job, a class, an internship, a research project, a volunteer position) or not. But don't forget to veg a bit! Butler (or any other institution, I imagine), will have you hopping for the full academic year, and it really is vital to take those lazy days to rest and read and bake cookies in your pajamas. Personally, I like cleaning my room with a book on tape. Whatever floats your boat.

My name is RE Casper. Born and raised in the heartland, but nomadic by nature. Starting my photographic obsession in Chicago, I now reside in the East San Francisco Bay, enjoying the beautiful panoramic from the Alameda coast.
Playing the role of artist for the last 15 years, I've created and sold artwork from graphite, ink and oil, filled the role of Freelance Graphic Designer for over 10 years and acted as Art Director of Camoclad Industries for over 3 years.
It's been a winding road, but I've always found myself returning to photography. I've shot promotional imagery for "The Pavement Group" of Chicago, where my work was published across Chicago Pride and chicagotheaterbeat.com. I participated in the 2012 and published in the 2013 Plus One Collection, a project produced and managed by Ivan Makarov. Most recently, I carried out a 7 piece gallery showing at Caribou on 10 S LaSalle in downtown Chicago and featured in the Boonville Daily News for my Photobook, "2000 Miles in a Vandura." A south-west, cross country photo tour from Illinois to California and just last year I had the absolute honor of being showcased at RAWArtist SF.
Through our memories, our work and the mark we leave on others, I feel we can all live forever. My art has always flowed through this outlook.
If you have haunted my blog or any of the my various social lines, then you have a decent idea of my work. If not, then what are you reading this babble for…. stop reading and take a peek in my galleries. I hope you enjoy the way I see the world.

The Kansas City Chiefs and Seattle Seahawks survived through tough offensive games by leaning on their great defenses. It's kept them on top of Sporting News' midseason edition of the 2013 NFL rankings. All of this year's Super Bowl contenders had their flaws in the first half, but just like a game, the ones who correct them in the second half win at the end. What do all the teams in the top 10 have in common? It's easy, they all have five or more wins, and the rest of the league doesn't. The Denver Broncos and New Orleans Saints looked like the best early, but at the halfway point, if anyone in the finest nine finished by winning it all, it wouldn't be a surprise.Start Slideshow
MORE: All-Bargain Team | Midseason studs, duds -
Last week: 1Next
Why they're here: The Chiefs survived another nailbiter at home against another backup quarterback making his first start of 2013, as Jason Campbell kept the Browns in the game late. Once again, the defense put the clutch clamps down to preserve perfection.
How they move down: If they don't find some more offense soon. Alex Smith is feeling more pressure as he's getting little help from his wide receivers and tight end. When a team is able to contain Jamaal Charles, the Chiefs have a lot of trouble moving the ball.
What's next: at Bills, one last road tuneup before the monster matchup at Denver post-bye in Week 11. -
Last week: 2Next
Why they're here: The Seahawks are grinding through some games with major offensive line injury issues, and both Russell Wilson and Marshawn Lynch took a beating in St. Louis. Still, because of their own physical, stingy defense, they escaped with a last-gasp stand on the road.
How they move up: The Seahawks have a few more favorable games with which to build more NFC equity (Tampa Bay, Atlanta, Minnesota) before a bye can get them on a high ahead of games against New Orleans and San Francisco back-to-back.
How they move down: Slow starts and relying a little too much on the run when it's not working combined to give them a scare against the Rams. They need to let Wilson go with the downfield passing game, because he thrives with it.
What's next: vs. Buccaneers, as they'll take out the Rams frustration on a winless team.
ALL-BARGAIN TEAM: Wilson leads the way
Last week: 3Next
Why they're here: The Broncos get a much-needed bye right in the middle of their season, as Peyton Manning has been banged around in the past two games. He had a Colts hangover for a little more than a half against the Redskins, and could use the extra time to heal up and as usual, obsess about all his previous 2013 game film.
How they move up: The Broncos slid back in Indianapolis, and won't get a chance to move up back until hosting the 8-0 Chiefs in Week 11.
How they move down: The Saints and Colts, the two teams right behind them, can really make statements against good defenses on the road in Week 9.
What's next: at Chargers, that other good AFC West team they can't overlook. -
Last week: 4Next
Why they're here: The Saints march in place with their expected home dismantling of Buffalo. Even with Jimmy Graham limited to being a red-zone stud, their passing game exploded with their full complement of downfield wide receivers.
How they move up: Drew Brees overcame a mild first quarter and a good Bills pass rush to get the offense sizzling for 45 minutes. They have a chance to do the same thing against a Jets 3-4 that was ripped by the Bengals' diverse weapons.
How they move down: If they don't shore their defense up against power run blocking teams with no-nonsense backs. That's exactly what NFC chief rivals Seattle, San Francisco and Green Bay have.
What's next: at Jets, where Rob Ryan will try to get the better of brother Rex. -
Last week: 5Next
Why they're here: The Colts had a week off to figure out how to keep Andrew Luck and the passing game humming without venerable wide receiver Reggie Wayne. They deserved the bye after their huge win over Peyton Manning and the Broncos.
How they move up: To help make up for Wayne's production, they need to start seeing dividends from the Trent Richardson trade with their coveted power running game. Let's hope the extra week set up Richardson to be strong down the stretch to take more pressure off Luck.
How they move down: The Colts are in control of the division, but get another Sunday night prime time challenge against Houston. Even though the two-time reigning South champs are reeling, they have the defense to make it tricky for Luck on the road.
What's next: at Texans, where Luck has a duel with Case Keenum. -
Last week: 6Next
Why they're here: The 49ers went to London and came away with their latest blowout victory, having no trouble running all over the Jaguars with Frank Gore, Colin Kaepernick and just about everyone else. Their reward for flexing their muscles again is a chance to rest them with a bye.
How they move up: As much fun as Kaepernicking has been in the run heavy version, at some point, he's got to show the great passing form that surged the Niners into the Super Bowl last season. They'll need it when the schedule gets tougher around the corner with New Orleans and Seattle.
How they move down: There are some hot teams right behind them, too. The Bengals can trump them by rolling through another good team, while the Packers, whom the Niners beat in Week 1, will need a much bigger home win over Chicago to do so.
What's next: vs. Panthers, when Kaepernick vs. Cam Newton will be awesome. -

Why they're here: Andy Dalton is on fire, and we're not making some joke about his red hair. As the Bengals have taken the reins off their offense and letting Dalton chuck it around the park to his expanded arsenal, the results have been huge, giving him a shot at AFC player of the month. See his career-high five TDs vs. the Jets.
How they move up: The Bengals just dropped a 49 spot on New York, and if the yardage and scoring totals keep impressing, we will no longer doubt if they have enough firepower to take down the Broncos.
How they move down: If they get a little too pass happy for Dalton with offensive coordinator Jay Gruden. Now that they have stretched the field in many more ways, it should open up more favorable lanes for speedy rookie Giovani Bernard.
What's next: at Dolphins on Thursday night, a chance to show the national audience just how good they have become. -
Last week: 8Next
Why they're here: There's been too much focus on which Packers are hurt and out of the lineup instead of which players have them rolling. The top of the list, of course, are Aaron Rodgers and rookie workhorse running back Eddie Lacy, who just dominated the rival Vikings in perfect harmony.
How they move up: The Packers are getting closer to putting away another division title as they have already ripped into Detroit and Minnesota. If they can take care of Jay Cutler-less Chicago, it will set up a second-half runaway.
How they move down: Green Bay needs to be careful defensively. It could never slam the door on the Vikings for a blowout it looked like the Week 8 game should have been. The Packers need to be better at tightening the screws late.
What's next: vs. Bears, another big prime-time chance on Monday night. -
Last week: 9Next
Why they're here: Given their massive injury pileup on defense and limited passing pop around Tom Brady on offense, New England has scrapped its old style points for gritty victories that include forcing key takeaways and leaning more on the run. See the Miami comeback.
How they move up: Everyone is waiting for Brady to look like Brady with Rob Gronkowski and Danny Amendola back in the lineup. Once we see the Patriots Way looking a little more like 2012 form, watch out.
How they move down: Every week is a bit of an adventure for the Patriots, regardless of their opponent. Facing tough defensive matchups ahead, they need to settle for narrow winning margins.
What's next: vs. Steelers, who will give the Patriots their best regardless of record. -
Last week: 11Next
Why they're here: The Lions got their Matt Stafford to Calvin Johnson groove on against the Cowboys, and needed every ounce out of that combination to outlast Dallas in an expected shootout. It was a critical comeback to solidify their wild-card standing.
How they move up: Detroit's pass-happy, one-dimensional ways come with a slippery slope of sacks and turnovers. Reggie Bush and Joique Bell is an above average combination in the backfield, it needs to run the ball better post-bye.
How they move down: The Lions need to be better on the road, and tough tests at Chicago and at Pittsburgh await them after Week 9.
What's next: at Bears, a division team they will try to sweep. -
Last week: 12Next
Why they're here: The Bears lost Jay Cutler and Lance Briggs for a while before the bye, so the bye was about preparing fill-ins Josh McCown and Khaseem Greene to pick up the slack for the offense and defense, or risk losing ground in the NFC playoff picture.
How they move up: If they can maintain their passing game with McCown, because the run will still be there with Matt Forte. The Bears have been a complete offensive team under Marc Trestman, and their ticket to the postseason and big points.
How they move down: If they can't shore up defensive issues with Briggs out and Charles Tilllman also banged up. Age was already an issue, and now miscommunication and bad coverage are bigger bugaboos.
What's next: at Packers, where they must play their best offensively to trump what all they can expect Aaron Rodgers to do. -
Last week: 13Next
Why they're here: The Chargers have gained control of the second wild card slot in the AFC, right behind West second-place team Denver. They had a little winning streak going before the bye, and should have great confidence for Philip Rivers, now a father of seven, to keep up the great play.
How they move up: Before they get a head-to-head shot at the Broncos, the Chargers have another opportunity to show that cross-country trips don't bother them (see the wins over Philadelphia, Jacksonville).
How they move down: The Chargers found some defensive production in Week 7, but that was against the anemic Jaguars. They must develop a better pass rush and shore up in outside coverage to be a legitimate playoff threat.
What's next: at Redskins, another defense Rivers should enjoy facing. -
Last week: 10Next
Why they're here: Where do we begin? The Cowboys just can't seem to break out of their middling standing around .500, no matter how well they play for nearly four quarters. The loss at Detroit was heartbreaking in the short term but not devastating in the long term, given they still are the favorite in a weak NFC East.
How they move up: The Cowboys' best medicine for such a defeat is rebounding and ripping into their next few opponents without letting it linger. The good news is the month is almost finished, and Tony Romo is Mr. November.
How they move down: No matter what Dez Bryant's intentions were, his tantrum didn't put him or the Cowboys in a good light in terms of having the leadership up top needed to finally get over the division title hump. They must get that worked out, because Romo is doing his part to lead them on the field.
What's next: vs. Vikings, when Bryant should expect to have a pleasing monster game. -
Last week: 19Next
Why they're here: The Panthers have shaken off some early tough, close losses (see Seattle, Buffalo, Arizona) to climb back above .500. When looking at their games, they could easily be undefeated. Cam Newton is doing great things, and the defense is dominant (see the Tampa Bay game).
How they move up: They have learned how to win the games they are supposed to win to get into NFC wild-card contention, and the home game with reeling rival Atlanta qualifies as one. Then it's on to beating bigger beasts, with San Francisco and New Orleans around the corner.
How they move down: They can't get too overconfident and settle into thinking they are better than they are. They have yet to go down this playoff-like path with Newton. They must stay hungry and humble.
What's next: vs. Falcons, a team they don't like that is in freefall. -
Last week: 15Next
Why they're here: The Dolphins have lost their way defensively, despite their good talent, and their offense either fades after a fast start or gets out of the gate too slowly. The inconsistent efforts continued in the frustrating loss to New England.
How they move up: Miami's once promising chance at a wild card is quickly slipping away. That can change big time, however, if they upend the hot Bengals in prime time.
How they move down: If they don't take advantage of improved pass protection for Ryan Tannehill by still sputtering with the running game and turnovers. That has them in danger of going well below .500 soon.
What's next: vs. Bengals, where they'll try to make a splash by cooling off an AFC power. -
Last week: 16Next
Why they're here: The Ravens needed the bye to regroup, given their unfamiliar struggles after seven games. Let's hope they have made the adjustments to get Joe Flacco and Ray Rice going offensively. Defensively, there wasn't much to tweak.
How they move up: They need to fight hard with Ravens-like ugly victories to climb back into both the AFC North and wild-card races. Flacco and Rice, with their supporting casts, aren't in position to carry the team.
How they move down: The Ravens struggled to finish close games, and the losses at Buffalo and Pittsburgh were especially frustrating. If they can't find their clutch mojo, they will miss the playoffs fresh off a Super Bowl victory.
What's next: at Browns, a division trap they must avoid. -
Last week: 27Next
Why they're here: The Cardinals have ridden their blitzing aggressive defense to get to .500, and it hit a second gear with the return of linebacker Daryl Washington. What has them in wild-card contention is an improved running game to take pressure off a struggling passing game (see rookies Andre Ellington and Stepfan Taylor vs. Atlanta).
How they move up: Now that the running game has found some pop with the young speed-power combination, it's on Carson Palmer to take advantage by cutting down on both sacks and turnovers by getting the ball out quickly.
How they move down: Palmer cannot continue to be an anti-prolific turnover machine. It's up to the coaching staff to realize he needs to be more like a caretaker than a gunslinger at this point.
What's next: vs. Texans in Week 10, another game against a fallen division winner. -
Last week: 21Next
Why they're here: The physical Titans just got beat up by the NFL's version of defensive murderer's row in 2013: Kansas City, Seattle, San Francisco. The positive coming out of their bye is Jake Locker and Chris Johnson are healthy and look like they might finally click at the same time.
How they move up: Now that they have slid back to the middle of the pack, they can't hold back with Locker. His dynamic potential as a runner and passer is their only chance at a wild card.
How they move down: If they can't better handle swarming defenses. Their offensive line must play a lot better in the second half.
What's next: at Rams, where there they will see old coach Jeff Fisher's new team. -
Last week: 20Next
Why they're here: Jason Campbell provided a surprising spark for their offense as their third starting quarterback, but with a nonexistent running game, they didn't have enough juice to pull off the big upset at Kansas City.
How they move up: Keep getting steady but unspectacular play from Campbell, and get something more out of their backfield. Willis McGahee and Chris Ogbonnaya haven't really been a good committee to replace Trent Richardson. They need more of speedy Fozzy Whitaker to complement Josh Gordon and Jordan Cameron.
How they move down: If they can't break through with points beyond the teens, even if they are going more conservative, ball-control with Campbell. Protecting him from mistakes can take them only so far.
What's next: vs. Ravens, a division game against a hated rival they must have. -
Last week: 26Next
Why they're here: Terrelle Pryor was one of the biggest surprises of the first half, and every week brings a jaw-dropping play (see the record 93-yard TD run vs. Pittsburgh).
How they move up: The Raiders need to build on the positives they had in the traditional running game with Darren McFadden. Pryor and McFadden aren't getting much help from the offensive line, but given their limited passing game, there's no choice to give their most talented players more opportunities.
How they move down: The Raiders faded away against the Steelers after a good first half, and some fortunate turnovers and unfortunate missed field goal attempts by their opponent bailed them out. As you would expect, they need to be a lot more consistent.
What's next: vs. Eagles, when Pryor will face another team from his home state. -
Last week: 14Next
Why they're here: The Jets melted down against the Bengals' passing game, and it allowed the Bengals' pass rush to tee off on rookie Geno Smith and force big mistakes that turned into big points. The roller coaster continues for the green QB.
How they move up: There's no panic mode yet, as Rex Ryan should see the Jets have plenty of time to recover and make a real run at the AFC's second wild card. They need to instill that sense of calm in Smith.
How they move down: If they don't shore up their pass defense. Teams know they can shut down the run with beef up front, and will just start spreading the field and working on their suspect coverage beyond Antonio Cromartie instead.
What's next: vs. Saints, where Ryan will get Smith ready against brother Rob's good D. -
Last week: 18Next
Why they're here: The Bills had fumbling issues with Thad Lewis in New Orleans, taking away from the strong running from steady Fred Jackson that kept them in the game for a while. Their secondary finally broke down against Drew Brees and his bevy of receivers.
How they move up: The Bills can't worry too much yet, because their strengths of the front seven defense and power rushing attack have remained intact, and they're not too far out of the playoff picture.
How they move down: Buffalo can't be too conservative now with Jackson and Tashard Choice. With C.J. Spiller banged up, they need to be more aggressive, even with young receivers, to find some sense of downfield explosiveness.
What's next: vs. Chiefs, where they can make a needed statement at home against the AFC's best. -
Last week: 17Next
Why they're here: Michael Vick or Nick Foles has turned into the nightmare for rookie Matt Barkley, as he hasn't been well prepared to handle Chip Kelly's offense the past two weeks (see Cowboys, Giants) while the healthiest starting option has gotten hurt.
How they move up: Go back to Foles and work hard on getting him back on track from the disappointment against Dallas. A limping Vick and a green Barkley have shown nothing of late. At least Foles has recent high success on which to build.
How they move down: If they don't get LeSean McCoy going again. As much as everyone wants to see Chip Kelly reestablish an exciting passing offense, the key to restoring some faith in him is the explosive ground game.
What's next: at Raiders, where Kelly can see some read option fun from Terrelle Pryor. -
Last week: 28Next
Why they're here: Their defense and running game almost were good enough together to upend the Seahawks, but then we were reminded that Kellen Clemens is now their quarterback. Clemens' two interceptions and struggles to close out a first-and-goal shows St. Louis' backup situation just isn't good, period.
How they move up: The Rams should take away the positives from the Seattle game. They rediscovered some moxie in division play, and their defensive and offensive lines both looked really good as strong foundations. Watch out if the pass rush keeps sizzling.
How they move down: If they can't give Clemens some needed help with the receiving crops and a more diverse passing game There's the danger of it dragging down an emerging power rushing attack.
What's next: vs. Titans, where they will prepare for another running QB, Jake Locker. -
Last week: 25Next
Why they're here: The Texans avoid sliding anywhere because they didn't play. During the bye, they figured out they liked enough of Case Keenum's first start against Kansas City to stick with him going forward, effectively ending the Matt Schaub era.
How they move up: Houston must dominate defensively with J.J. Watt and others without Brian Cushing, because that's the side that can give them any kind of chance to creep back into at least AFC wild-card contention.
How they move down: The injuries have been hurting them offensively, first with left tackle Duane Brown, then tight end Owen Daniels, then Schaub. Add both running back Arian Foster and Ben Tate to the list. If they can't run as well as we're used to seeing, Keenum will be under a ton of pressure.
What's next: vs. Colts, who look like the new AFC South champions. -
Last week: 29Next
Why they're here: The Giants have made a steady climb from the bottom the past two weeks, even though they haven't looked great doing it against either Minnesota or Philadelphia. The good news is, they are just two games out of first place in the awful NFC East.
How they move up: At some point, Eli Manning and his receivers will get hot, right? This seems to be about the time when Manning goes on a hot streak (especially with Green Bay around the corner) and pushes the Giants from the brink of disaster to a dangerous floater.
How they move down: Their special teams remain atrocious, and the running game needs healthier, better bodies both up front and in the backfield. Otherwise, Manning can't turn on his heroics we've seen in the past.
What's next: vs. Raiders, a favorable stretch of three consecutive post-bye home games. -
Last week: 24Next
Why they're here: The Redskins looked great running the ball and building a shocking 21-7 lead over the Broncos in Mike Shanahan's return to Denver, only to revert back to Robert Griffin III getting pounded while dropping back too much while they abandoned the run.
How they move up: Washington needs to realize running the ball with Alfred Morris, not Griffin, is its best offensive ticket right now, because it opens up everything else. Maybe the early success in Denver will be a good reminder.
How they move down: The Redskins' defense came up with some huge plays (see DeAngelo Hall) in Denver, but when the turnovers and quarterback hits aren't coming off, they keep getting picked apart by versatile attacks.
What's next: vs. Chargers, when they will need to handle several versatile weapons. -
Last week: 22Next
Why they're here: The Steelers had a great chance to get back into the thick of the AFC wild-card race, but then decided to give up an inexcusable run by Terrelle Pryor and make a whole of lot of undisciplined mistakes to leave a "should win" on the table in Oakland.
How they move up: The Steelers have a simple path to get back on track. Now that their running game is working with Le'Veon Bell, the offense must cut down on penalties and eliminate turnovers. Their defense is playing too well to be let down like that.
How they move down: If that defense pulls back from getting big sacks and takeaways. It's been more prevalent of late, and that's only chance to bail out the offense.
What's next: at Patriots, where Ben Roethlisberger gets to duel Tom Brady again. -
Last week: 23Next
Why they're here: The Falcons had a disastrous three quarters of offense, drying up in the desert in Arizona as Matt Ryan was ripped by pressure and forced into another interception fest. Their defensive injury issues are also becoming a lot more prevalent than anything on offense.
How they move up: Don't hold back Ryan. He has to keep throwing and taking his shots downfield despite a limited receiving corps because the running game, even with a semi-healthy Steven Jackson, just isn't helping behind a shaky line.
How they move down: The Falcons won't be able to beat anyone if their run defense continues to be the sieve it was against the Cardinals.
What's next: at Panthers, where they also will need to deal with hot Cam Newton running. -
Last week: 30Next
Why they're here: Josh Freeman, Christian Ponder or Matt Cassel at quarterback? It doesn't really matter when their defense can't stop the run, handle speedy receivers or get off the field on third down. See all of the above against the Packers.
How they move up: One of those quarterbacks needs to suddenly step up and win shootouts, because the whole ball-control approach with Adrian Peterson is backfiring this season.
How they move down: If they can't win the battle with their marquee defensive line. Balanced offenses will keep having their way with them.
What's next: at Cowboys, where they won't frustrate Dez Bryant one bit. -
Last week: 31Next
Why they're here: Another week, another struggle just about everywhere. Now the offensive injuries are piling up (see Doug Martin, Mike Williams) where high-volume passing rookie Mike Glennon isn't getting the support he needs beyond Vincent Jackson. It's causing the defense to crumble quickly (see Panthers).
How they move up: The Buccaneers are hoping that giving Darrelle Revis an opportunity to be a true man shutown corner again will be a spark for their defense, which isn't that bad and their only hope to victory.
How they move down: If they can't help Glennon with something out of the running game, even if needs to be with versatile rookie Mike James.
What's next: at Seahawks, in a brutal NC State duel with Russell Wilson. -
Last week: 32
Why they're here: The change of scenery to overseas in London did nothing to change the Jaguars' fortunes. They were beat up by the 49ers' running game from start to finish, and once again, they couldn't find any kind of offensive rhythm.
How they move up: The Jaguars can sneak ahead of the other bad Florida team, the Buccaneers, if they can just scratch out one win. The best opportunity for that might be hosting Arizona in Week 11.
What's next: at Titans, an AFC South rival who's still a bit better than them.

Charlotte tourism officials worry about stadium
Charlotte tourism officials are worried about state lawmakers' plans to help fund improvements for the Carolinas Panthers stadium.
Charlotte tourism officials worry the plan to make improvements at Bank of America Stadium would not leave enough money to upgrade the Charlotte Convention Center.
A bill would allow Charlotte to use taxes earmarked for the convention center to help pay for stadium renovations. The bill was offered as an alternative to the city's request to double the 1 percent local food tax to pay for stadium upgrades.
Tom Murray with the Charlotte Regional Visitors Authority says using the money for the stadium would not leave enough money to improve the convention center. A letter from Murray and three other tourism officials says their main concern is to improve the convention center.

Music Review: Sarasota Orchestra's Journeys to Genius: 'Solving Elgar's Enigma'
Date: October 19, 2011
by: June LeBell | Contributing Writer
The English composer Edward Elgar, who straddled the 19th and 20th centuries, wrote symphonies, myriad chamber works, concertos, songs, choral works and many marches, of which his "Pomp and Circumstance" pieces brought him international acclaim. The British royals even saw fit to honor him as "Sir Edward." So, why the usually illustrious Journeys to Genius programmers at the Sarasota Orchestra chose to dismiss most of Elgar's music and focus only on his "Enigma Variations" was something of an enigma in itself.
Until this performance, the orchestra's Journeys to Genius performances have been unmitigated successes, drawing us — like Leonard Bernstein's video musical lectures — into a spellbinding web of the lives and works of composers. The programs also brought a new audience — younger and perkier — to the orchestra, while keeping those of us who have been dyed-in-the-wool music fans for a long time. But "Solving Elgar's Enigma" last week fell far short of the triumphs of the past.
So, what was it about this program that was, well, enigmatic? For starters, the premise of this journey was flawed. Elgar was considerably more than his "Enigma Variations."
Then there was the script, which was less than compelling. Jim Helsinger took on the role of storyteller, but the story he told was somewhat lackluster, and, to make matters worse, his microphone was so inept it was difficult to understand much of what he was saying. Patrick Sullivan made a dreary Sir Edward, and Diana Brune, as Alice Elgar, seemed to float on and off the stage without much character.
This was more the fault of the tedious script that was more ill-defined than fascinating and the stage direction (by David Chernault) that was fuzzy and blurred. Basically, this presentation lacked the focus and excitement of Journeys in the past.
Worst was the sound system that cut out, drowned out or muffled the speakers, rendering them somewhat impotent in their various non-descript roles. This has been a problem before at the Sarasota Opera House, and, with the small screens on either side of the stage purporting to show slides of the various people who influenced Elgar, this Journey was more of an audio-and-visual blur than the captivating concerts to which we're accustomed.
Christopher Confessore, the writer and conductor of this program, is a former resident of Sarasota and was known to us as a talented youngster who won the (then known as) Florida West Coast Symphony's Young Artists Concerto Competition. He's participated in the Sarasota Music Festival and even served as the orchestra's associate conductor from 1992 to 2000 and as education director in the early '90s. Currently, he's music director of the Brevard Symphony and principal Pops conductor of the Alabama Symphony Orchestra.
Confessore may have underestimated the sophistication of Sarasota audiences. What may work elsewhere can come across in this town as academic and bookish rather than exciting and elucidating.
Leaving the enigma of Elgar's "Enigma" aside, the second section of this program, as always, focused on a performance of the work itself. And, here again, we were disappointed.
Elgar's "Enigma Variations" have always sparkled for me. From the opening segment with its Mahlerian harmonies to the gorgeous and celebrated "Nimrod" variation, it's always been a fun, exhilarating and, at times, electrifying musical romp. So it pains me to say this performance left me bored and considerably disappointed.
The Sarasota Orchestra is an ensemble that I brag about to my friends and colleagues. This was not one of its sterling moments. Intonation in the strings was shaky, and the tension and excitement we've grown to expect were lacking. It is early in the season, and they may not yet have melded into the cohesive ensemble we know they are. I can only hope that future Journeys are presented to us with the genius they've shown in the past.

Whippoorwill Curtain
Still love them as much as the first time I saw them...
I saw these last year in the store and absolutely loved them; however, I had just bought a new house and wasn't sure if they would fit into the decor. Every time I went to worldmarket.com looking for neutral drapes, I would see these again and still want them. Finally, I broke down and bought them! I am going to decorate around these drapes I love them so much. They are great quality and nicely lined. I agree with the other reviewers that these should be available in the longer lengths also.

Love these drapes
The quality is beautiful, no hanging threads, diden't have to get the sewing machine out to redo a hem, no puckers,nothing!! A light press with the steam iron and up they went. Hang evenly, filter the light with out unduly darkening the room. It is hard to tell their ture color in the picture, I thought they were in creams and gray with the touches of green, when they are in cream and browns the green reads more yellow, but that could be because my walls are very soft yellow. But they look great!!

These curtains are beautiful!
They are gorgeous and I smile every time I walk in the bedroom and see them. They are much softer than I thought they'd be which is nice. They provide privacy and block glaring sun but still allow some light to filter through. The colors are soothing and the hint of yellow-green is subtle and lovely. I could not be happier with them.

Gorgeous Curtains
These curtains are even more beautiful in person. They are good quality and have a liner in the back. They look stunning in my light yellow bedroom. It brings out the light yellow highlights in the curtain. They definitely brought Spring to my bedroom! I was extremely pleased with how quickly they shipped. I ordered them on a Monday and received them Thursday.

Quality and a great price
I ordered these on-line, and they were just perfect for my office. They are lined, the colors are great, they hang well, I didn't need to wash them first only press them. The green on the birds is so light, you barely notice it, perfect for me. I wanted just a hint of color. World Market has a great selection of curtain panels in different lengths at great prices.

Good background for plain walls
Really like the pattern; goes well with my other accessories

Love these curtains
These curtains are beautiful and nicely made. Each panel packaged separately, and very well, they are ready to hang and hang very nicely. I think the picture shows the colors very well. I am expremely happy with these curtains.

Absolutely beautiful
I often rely on other people's reviews and hardly write my own review, but in this case I had to share. These curtains are absolutely beautiful. Even my husband liked them and commented several times how much he liked them. The curtains have a sophisticated, but casual look that dresses up our bedroom without being fussy. The curtains are lined; however, it filters out light but does not keep the room dark. We're not the kind of people who like waking up in a totally dark room so it doesn't matter to us. Instead of slipping the curtain on a pole, I added bronze curtains rings and then slipped it onto the pole. This gave the curtains a finished look and made them even lovlier.

The sound coming out of the Tigers' locker room was a mixture of happiness and relief. It came after the Fort Hays State University volleyball team defeated visiting Northwest Missouri State University 3-1 on Saturday at Gross Memorial Coliseum.
Set scores were 30-28, 25-20, 23-25, 25-17.
"There were a lot of screaming girls. We were just so excited and overwhelmed with joy that we finally got that first win," sophomore Mallory Flagor said. "The beginning of the season was kind of rough. We really did come together as a team and we stayed happy for each other the entire time."
It was the first win of the season for the Tigers, who lost their first nine matches, including an 0-4 start to MIAA play. It was also the first time this season FHSU has won more than one set in a single match.
After a 23-14 season a year ago, and with most of the roster returning, the team's 0-9 start was anything but expected. The Tigers lost their first five matches of the season in Hawaii and frustration started to set in. Four more losses followed, all in conference, and frustration was turning into desperation.
According to FHSU coach Kurt Kohler, the Tigers simply got tired of losing.
"We really got focused and were ready for a win," Kohler said. "I think today was a complete team effort and we haven't see that this year. I know we have been capable of it. We just haven't done it. So it's fun to watch how good our girls can play together when they put their minds to it."
The team's willpower was tested early against Northwest (6-6, 2-2 MIAA). After leading 4-0 in the first set, FHSU collapsed and would trail 10-6. The Tigers fought back to retake the lead at 16-15, and the team's battled back and forth from there. The Bearcats had set point on four occasions, but FHSU found an answer each time.
Samantha Ledy's kill finished it at 30-28, giving the Tigers a rare set led.
"We haven't won that many sets so winning that first one definitely made a difference," junior Taylor Mares said. "We made it a point to say that we are going to play for the girl beside us. I think that's why we got the win."
FHSU trailed 8-3 in the second set, but used a 6-0 run midway through to take the lead and followed with another 4-0 run to eventually lead 21-13. The Bearcats found a rally of their own, cutting their deficit to 21-17, but a strong finish by the Tigers would give them a 2-0 set lead.
FHSU had chances to win the third set and held the lead at 22-21. But mistakes cost them and a 3-0 run by the Bearcats gave them the set.
"We knew in that third set that we made lots of errors ourselves," Kohler said. "I think our girls were focused enough and understood we could beat this team. They just had to really push."
The Tigers cruised in the fourth set, building a 21-10 lead and held on to earn their first victory of the season. Senior Jenna Ulrich finished with nine blocks, senior Makenzie Weinman had 28 digs, and Mares led the team with 18 kills and hit .394.
"(Mares) is a gamer. Sometimes in practice we don't always see what she is capable of, but she always steps up in a game," Kohler said. "For her to get 18 kills is a big night for her."
A pleasant surprise came from Flagor, who was second on the team with 14 kills, hitting .163. She had 43 touches to lead the team.
"She is starting to get confident," Kohler said. "She is capable of playing this way, I just think over the last three matches she has got that confidence built up."
FHSU (1-9, 1-4 MIAA) will host McPherson College (10-10) at 5:30 p.m. Monday.

Obama and the Democrats annihilating the Republican Party?
Obama and the Democrats annihilating the Republican Party?
An interesting claim. I don't think so, but it's an interesting attempt to shift blame for failure to articulate Republican / Conservative policies.
What is hurting the Republican Party?
The inability to reach out to all citizens in the US.
The statement that 47% of the country are 'takers'. (Romney)
The perception of being anti-minority. (African-American, Hispanic, Gays, women)
The unfortunate statements by Republican legislators regarding 'rape'.
The comparison of the location of Red states with the division of the US during the Civil War.
There are some Republicans who have stated that there needs to be a revamping of some Republican strategies in recruitment. However, the Speakers announcement about Obama out to annihilate the party of Lincoln is disingenuous.
There are those in Fayette County who decry the policies of both the Democrats and Republicans. But when one who does this is an advocate of disenfranchising all who 'work' for the government and identifies with the 'conservative or libertarian movement, the red flags go up! There are many in this country and this county, black, white, Asian, Native American , who stood hand in hand with those who had been disenfranchised under the implementation of our Constitution and won the right to vote for all legal and law abiding citizens of our country.
There are some rising stars in the Republican Party. Are they being encouraged? It is discouraging when the elected leader of the House cannot get consensus to move on bills that will benefit all citizens. This Congress, under the leadership of Reid and Boehner has the lowest rating for effectiveness. A Congress that does not work together - does not work for the American people.
There was a peaceful election in 2012 - no riots, revolutionary actions, no coup. Our country is admired for this. The United States respects the desire of the American people as indicated by their vote. A very few spoke of secession, reminding some of the ugliness of the issues of the Civil War.
If Republicans or Democrats feel that their party is misunderstood, they need to look within for the reason.
What say you?
The GOP needs a witty, telegenic gay atheist who pounds on the precepts of personal freedom and prosperity -- nothing else. Full stop.
But they won't. Instead, they will dance with the one that brought 'em -- abortion.

Using information from alleged documents leaked by the Sony hackers, Google said the Motion Picture Association of America and Mississippi's attorney general conspired to limit free speech on the Internet.
It was another terrible, horrible, no good, very bad week for Sony, and we learned even more as reporters sifted through a trove of stolen documents from the Hollywood studio.
The search giant continues its campaign against Mississippi's Jim Hood. Google says his request for company information is an "unjustified attack" that violates federal law.
Zappos customers reset passwords after the site's 24 million accounts hacked, Apple is expected to bring interactive textbooks to the iPad, and Wikipedia and other sites will go dark Wednesday in protest of SOPA.
We're back at it with another show rundown! Today we're talking about Atari finally digging up those lost ET cartridges, unearthing a floppy disk containing all of Andy Warhol's digital art works, jamming cellphones on your work commute, drone photography trends, and a eulogy for Twitter.
The late Aaron Swartz said in an interview for the documentary film, set to be completed late this year, that he was more worried about the U.S. government than about teenage hackers in basements.
The service known for hosting millions of Web sites is the victim of a cyberattack that knocked out connections for domains around the world.
The Internet activist's supporters use Swartz's own words to launch a campaign against government surveillance.
Senate Judiciary spokeswoman denies that a meeting between a committee aide and the late activist Aaron Swartz led to the creation of the anti-SOPA advocacy group Demand Progress.
Aaron Swartz's former roommate, Peter Eckersley, says the late activist started Demand Progress because from D.C.'s perspective, it "doesn't matter" if their laws break the Internet.

En Español (Spanish Version)Amyloidosis is a group of rare diseases. It involves deposits of a protein called amyloid. These proteins build up in body tissues and organs. There are three major forms:
- Primary amyloidosis—found in the heart, lungs, skin, tongue, thyroid gland, intestines, liver, kidneys, and blood vessels
- Secondary amyloidosis—found in the spleen, liver, kidneys, adrenal glands, and lymph nodes
- Hereditary amyloidosis—found in the nerves, heart, blood vessels, and kidneys
The causes of amyloidosis vary in its different forms:
- Primary amyloidosis—caused by the deposit of antibody fragments; associated with bone marrow disorders such as multiple myeloma
- Secondary amyloidosis—develops in response to chronic infection or inflammatory disease
- Hereditary amyloidosis—caused by mutations of amyloid in the blood

Twins pitching coach Rick Anderson visits Hall of Fame
Rick Anderson has mentored some of the finest American League hurlers in the last decade as the Minnesota Twins' pitching coach.
But on Thursday, Anderson got to see the work of some of best pitchers in any league as he toured the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Anderson, 54, visited the Hall of Fame with his wife Rhonda and daughter Ashley. The Anderson family has spent the last few days traversing the northeast in advance of a reunion of the 1986 World Champion New York Mets this weekend in New York City.
Anderson made his big league debut with the Mets in 1986, going 2-1 with a 2.72 earned-run average in 15 games that year. He helped the Mets win 108 regular-season games en route to the world championship.
"It's great to get together with the guys and see how they all are doing," Anderson said. "A lot of us still in the game keep in touch, like (Braves pitching coach) Roger McDowell, (Mets minor league manager) Tim Teufel and (Red Sox hitting coach) Dave Magadan."
Anderson's professional pitching career began just up the road from Cooperstown in Little Falls, N.Y., in 1978 with the Class A Little Falls Mets. That year, Anderson pitched for the big league club in the Hall of Fame Game when the Mets played the Tigers at Doubleday Field.
Anderson wrapped up his big league pitching career with the Royals in 1987 and 1988 after going to Kansas City in the David Cone trade before the 1987 season. He was named the Twins pitching coach before the 2002 season, overseeing two Cy Young Award-winning seasons by Johan Santana and four-time All-Star closer Joe Nathan as the Twins advanced to the playoffs six times in 10 seasons.
In 2004, Anderson returned to Cooperstown with the Twins for a Hall of Fame Game against the Braves.
"We've been here before, but it's such a great place we wanted to come back on our way to the city," Anderson said. "It's just wonderful, all the history here. It really is a special place."
Craig Muder is the director of communications at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.
