Rip Curl Pro Portugal: Editor Picks
Editor-In-Chief: Chris Cote
Winner: Julian Wilson will win this event, he's been getting too close, ripping too hard, and getting a bit underscored. If Portugal is wedging and there are ramps available, JW will take this thing. If not him, can Taylor Knox please win? Please.
Shocker: The "tennis tour" rookies will come out blazing again, knocking fools out of the water.
Who will Rip: Taylor Knox will carve the living shit out of some Portuguese wedges. Mick Fanning will get pissed off, and do some damage. You know who else surfs really good in big draining beachbreaks, John John—his nerves are calmed by now and he's about to go to Portugal and get nuts.
Who will Slip: This is the last contest that I will offer the Taylor Knox tattoo if he wins. So Taylor, if you win, I'll get a Taylor Knox tattoo, if you don't we're gonna have to figure out a different way to get you on my body—that sounded weird.
Photo Editor: Aaron Checkwood
Winner: Mick Fanning. He let my prediction down in France so I'm even more confident about Portugal.
Shocker: Kelly loses early when the ASP realizes their computers have been accidentally adding an extra point to his scores all year. Ke1111111111y.
Who Will Rip: Parko will rip his suit to shreds if he loses early again. He won't. I think.
Who Will Slip: Hopefully not Tiago. I want to see the beach go bonkers if he wins. That would be really cool.
Managing Editor: Casey Koteen
Winner: Besides the obvious (Slater, who won last year), I'm gonna get all nutz and say Brett Simpson. He charged in Tahiti, ripped in France, and has won big comps before. I think he gets his first world tour win here.
Shocker: Owen Wright will break his entire quiver in a heat this year.
Who will Rip: I was just watching that part in Secret Machine where Damien Hobgood tears the goddam bag out of a macking beachbreak in France (28 minutes in). It's some of the most aggressive, fine-tuned shredding of big and tricky surf I've ever seen. If it's big and draining, Damien can run that comp.
Who will Slip: The guys that have slipped this year got clipped off tour. However, Dan Ross has four last places in a row, and might add a fifth.
Associate Editor: Zander Morton
Winner: Gabriel Medina. It's the obvious, he's-so-hot-right-now pick, but we all saw what he's capable of in beachbreaks. I'm claiming another finals appearance, at the very least.
Shocker: Owen Wright loses early, allowing Kelly to coast to his 11th title in San Francisco next month.
Who will Rip: Jordy Smith. He made the final last year, and easily could again. Judging from his performance in France, that rib injury is healing just fine.
Who will Slip: Parko, again, if he keeps putting forth such uninspired performances. Where's that fiery competitiveness been since Bells?
TransWorld SURF Senior Photographer: Jack English
Winner: Owen Wright. He is just mentally and physically so on fire right now. Coming off 3 finals with 1 win he just has the momentum on his side along with his new coach. Having a team of guys helping you emotionally and physically at your side I think helps a lot. He is off the party train and just has everything in his corner right now.
Shocker: Dane Reynolds showing up, but with the "I don't care attitude".
Who will Rip: Julian Wilson and Josh Kerr because the wedgey little beach breaks will be a great opportunity to take things into the air.
Who will Slip: If the contest is at big super tubes I will say the young guys, but if the contest is elsewhere the older guys will slip. The ones who don't have the tricks
TransWorld SURF Intern/Captain of the UCSD Surf Team: Kokoro Tomatsuri
Winner: Julian Wilson because he's been building up this whole year and he's found a rhythm, After he got second he's more fired up then ever.
Shocker: Kelly Slater, It always seems to be a dramatic end for Kelly, it would be too easy if he won this one.
Who will Rip: If it's tubing, John John and Owen are gonna kill it. If it's mushy and weird, Josh Kerr or Taj Burrow will kill it.
Who will Slip: Jordy, his injury, pressure to do well make him make bad decisions.

The 16th century is defined by the calendar of Earth as occurring from the year 1501 through the year 1600.
- Bajoran explorers build solar-sail spacecraft to explore their star system. (DS9: "Explorers")
According to Star Trek: Star Charts, on page 43, one of these vessels visited the star system Cardassia in 1571.
- The T-Rogorans conquer the Skrreea. They kill most of the Skrreean leaders, and force the rest of the population to work as laborers and servants. (DS9: "Sanctuary")
- The Second Dynasty rules over the Klingon Empire, but ends with General K'Trelan assassinating Emperor Reclaw then later putting to death all the members of the Imperial Family. The next ten years that followed, the Empire was ruled by a council elected by the people, which is referred to as "The Dark Time" by Klingon historians. Following this period a new group of Klingons, called the Third Dynasty, were given the titles and names of the original Imperial Family in order to create the illusion of an unbroken line since the true Imperial bloodlines were cut at the end of the Second Dynasty. (DS9: "You Are Cordially Invited")
- According to Q, in this century, Humans are fighting each other over "tribal god images". (TNG: "Encounter at Farpoint")
- 1538
- The Doctor has autopsy reports in his database as far back as this year, some of which are of men who died in duels over a woman. He offers to show these to Kes when she is upset about Neelix and Tom Paris fighting over her. (VOY: "Parturition")
- 1588
- An attempted Spanish invasion of England is thwarted. (ENT: "Future Tense")
- 1590
- In western Europe, early experiments with the optical microscope are made. Sketchbooks and other forms of art of the time record early observations of a more or less scientific nature, as seen during Captain Janeway's Leonardo da Vinci holodeck program. (VOY: "Scorpion", "Concerning Flight")
According to Star Trek: Star Charts, T-Rogorans became warp-capable in 1570 AD.

On the ground at Spring Training
Observations on the flight to Phoenix. The 737 I am flying on is more than half empty. Most people are sleeping. The only kid on the plane is counting to 10, over and over. During it's trip to the east the plane and crew will make about 28 stops. Among them are Phoenix, Indianapolis, Austin, Kansas City and St. Louis. I figure this big piece of metal will fly 4,600 miles today, give or take few hundred. I am told… Read More »

A University of Dar es Salaam (UDSM) lecturer in Political Science and Public Administration, Richard Mbunda, has said that socialism (Ujamaa) is still the best policy for Tanzania.
Presenting a paper at a function to mark the World Smallholder Farmers' Day at Sokoine University of Agriculture (SUA) recently, Mbunda said the fact that the policy sought to establish equality and justice in society made it still ideal for the country even today.
He said currently low-income earners, which most smallholder farmers are, were generally being ignored although they were the very ones who sustained the country's economy.
Mbunda noted that inequality was getting more pronounced now as a few people with the political and financial wherewithal were grabbing huge pieces of land on the pretext of investment while forcefully evicting smallholder farmers from their lands.
He said initiatives such as Kilimo Kwanza wouldn't benefit smallholder farmers, citing the Southern Agricultural Growth Corridor of Tanzania (Saggot) as a movement which, in his opinion, would not benefit smallholder farmers.
"The Arusha Declaration, in spite of its shortcomings, aimed at elevating smallholder farmers, as currently there is no ideology which aims at liberating this group which comprises over 80 per cent of the country's population," he emphasised.
Contributing to Mbunda's presentation on the principles of the Arusha Declaration in connection with land grabbing in rural areas, Network of Farmers' Groups of Tanzania (Mviwata) patron Stephen Mashishanga, whose group hosted the event jointly with the Tanzania Associations of Land (TALA), said farmers still needed Ujamaa because the system gave them opportunities to grow.
"We still need the Arusha Declaration and all that it stood for. It is only a few leaders who have neglected it and thus weakened its implementation," he said.
For his part, HakiArdhi director Yefredy Myenzi argued that the government and its organs were part of the land grabbing problem. He accused some executives of collaborating with foreign investors to grab land from villagers on the pretext of promoting investment.
He claimed that 647,000 hectares of land were grabbed in 2010 alone by 'investors' to pave way for the establishment of huge farms for planting jatropha, sugar cane and palm for producing biofuel.
Myenzi identified another cause for widespread land grabbing in rural areas as the expansion of companies following imperialistic principles, whereby managements of such industries created networks of smallholder farmers producing for them at a very low cost.
He also claimed that land grab was fuelling environmental degradation as forests were cleared to pave the way for jatropha production.

News 12 at First at Five / Friday, Nov. 16, 2012
DENMARK, S.C. -- A couple days ago, Fatima Penn-McIntosh got the call no parent ever wants to get.
"She was like 'Ms. Penn, Ms. Penn, some girl just came into the class and beat Tyana with a lock," said Penn-McIntosh, recounting her conversation with a student who called her to tell her that her daughter was under attack.
Penn-McIntosh says the attack happened at Denmark-Olar Middle School. She says her daughter came under a surprise attack.
"As I was told, there were blood all over the place," she said.
The weapon of choice wasn't a gun or knife but a padlock.
"My daughter was in class and the little girl came into the class with the lock and you know commenced to hitting her when her back was turned," Penn-McIntosh said.
After rushing to the school, she snapped several pictures once most of the blood was cleaned off. The pictures show instant bruising on the side of her face, caked blood in her ear and a deep gash in her head.
"The doctor said, 'This is serious, you could have been killed,'" said the mother.
But Tyana, who's now home healing, defended herself by fighting back, and that's one of the reason's the school suspended her for 10 days, along with the alleged attacker and another student who tried to break them up.
"My child is the victim. And I'm not saying she should be put on a pedestal, but she was the victim," Penn-McIntosh said.
However, the incident is still under investigation by Denmark Police. They should soon charge one, if not multiple students, who will each have their turn in family court. If guilty, they'll be off to the Department of Juvenile Justice.
As for Penn-McIntosh, she's looking for a lawyer to help clear her daughter's name, who she says was just defending herself after a random attack.
"I want to see something done for the safety of other people's children," she said.
News 12 was also contacted by the mother of the girl who allegedly broke up the fight and snatched the lock from the attacker's hand. She says her daughter was suspended too for possibly saving Tyana's life.

For a second, I think we've been Punk'd. Ashton Kutcher—TV's pretty boy prankster, Allen Funt on whippets, an impossibly handsome Gomer Pyle without the accent—is talking earnestly about gender inequity, gay rights, and his idea for this photo shoot: that we're all robots genetically predetermined to carry out the whims of an unseen creator. It's a little weird, that the merry jester of Punk'd and That '70s Show sounds so different in conversation: his voice deeper and flatter, none of the adorable-me shtick. But Kutcher's story has always been unlikely. If it were a script, the development exec would send it back for a believability injection: model is discovered in Iowa, comes to L.A., immediately lands a hit sitcom that runs for eight seasons, produces a hit MTV show in his spare time, then marries a Hollywood icon of a previous generation, becoming a second father to her children and best friends with her ex-husband.
But that is Ashton Kutcher's world, and we're just living in it. For someone with a charmed existence, he has a thorny and dark backstory: he studied biochemical engineering and grew up in a stressful family environment with feuding parents and a twin brother born with a heart condition and cerebral palsy. At 19, he was discovered in an Iowa modeling competition, made a splash in ads and on the runway, and was quickly cast on That '70s Show as the lovable turtlenecked goon Kelso.
As a former model, he actually made a fine comic actor. Movie success proved somewhat elusive—if no one remembers The Butterfly Effect, A Lot Like Love, or The Guardian, it's a safe bet Kutcher wouldn't mind. But he compounded his success on TV, creating and producing the reality shows Punk'd—a genuine cultural phenomenon—and Beauty and the Geek. He didn't do too bad extracurricularly, either. In 2003, he started dating, and later married, Demi Moore, becoming one of Hollywood's most talked-about couples because of their fifteen-year age difference and their involvement in Kabbalah, a type of Jewish mysticism imported to public consciousness by Madonna.
But with three movies in 2008, he seems poised to provide more than tabloid conversation points: the slapstick comedy What Happens in Vegas… pairs him with his female doppelganger, Cameron Diaz (also a former model who proved to be charmingly goofy), in the story of an accidental bride and groom that has summer–crowd-pleaser written all over it. Personal Effects is an intense drama based on a Rick Moody story about a younger man and an older woman (Michelle Pfeiffer) who are drawn together by the deaths of family members and start an affair. The dark comedy Spread casts him wildly against type as a womanizing bachelor.
Whatever happens at the box office, his golden-boy sheen looks secure: he now presides over a growing production company that's producing a new sitcom, Miss/Guided, for ABC, along with several other projects. In a wide-ranging conversation, he talks about what is real for him and what it took to get there.
We hear this photo shoot was your idea. What was the idea, and where did it come from?
ASHTON KUTCHER I had a vision one day. I was watching one of those Gatorade commercials where they had a guy on a treadmill, and they're testing to see what his physical abilities are. I had this idea: what did the creator—God or whatever—make you for? Maybe we're all doing exactly what we're supposed to be doing, and we're all actually robots. It's a weird sort of sci-fi notion. So I called Mario Testino and I said, "What if you could get tested to see if you're genetically designed to do what you're doing—what would that photo shoot look like?" So we started talking about it, and Mario came up with the robotic arm and the laboratory.
Hmmm. Have you always been existential in this way?
AK I've always been scientific in that way. When I was a little kid, my parents got me one of those mechanical Erector Sets where you make it run and drive, make a little engine for it, and I was always fascinated by it. I went to school for biochemical engineering. I fell out of that, but I never lost my interest for what makes something work. I look at everything and ask the question, How does that operate? How did that happen? And I look at people's flaws and ask, How is that manifested in them?
So how about you—are you doing what you're genetically designed to be doing?
AK I feel like I'm genetically designed to be doing a lot more than what I've been doing. With some things, I feel that I've been put on earth to do just that, and some things, not so much, because I fall on my face just like anybody else.
Are you happy with the movies you've made?
AK I'm happy that I went through the experiences I went through. Some days I feel like some of the choices I've made weren't necessarily the best ones, but I'm happy about where I am right now. My intention has been genuine: to entertain people. Whether I succeed or fail, my intentions are right, and I think that's the most important thing. This year, for the first time in my career, I think I've had a couple of pieces of material that allow me to play characters outside of what I've done before, and I'm excited about that.
Is What Happens in Vegas… the kind of movie we'd expect from you and Cameron Diaz: two hours of mania?
AK I think it's the best of what we both do. Cameron is a formidable force. I'm hard-pressed to name someone who's made a mark in that genre as a female comedian since Meg Ryan. I was excited to go to work every day with someone who would smash that ball back to me as hard as I was hitting it at her.
Was there any pranksterism on the set?
AK When you get us two together, it's a party. I loved rolling into the set every day and seeing Cameron, because she's hooting and hollering and ready to go. She's fired up and has a real joie de vivre about the process. And I think that kind of set the tone for everyone. Each day we went to work, we went to a party and just rocked out. The scene where we're smashed off our asses and getting married is the biggest train wreck you've ever seen. Romantic-comedy weddings generally are romantic—this has no hint of that. It's just two people wasted and going at it.
Your next movie, Spread, casts you as this kind of Alfie-type swinging bachelor, right?
AK It's about a guy who's a dating machine—he sort of seduces women for financial gain without being officially a gigolo. It's a pretty dirty little movie. It's honest, and in this case that honesty is kind of brutal.
Did you have an Alfie period?
AK I had a serial-dating period. I was pretty abusive of my attributes for a while.
What attributes?
AK My fame and my looks. I was pretty abusive to a lot of people. This movie is kind of my way to say I'm sorry to a lot of girls I may have hurt by not being respectful.
How do you feel about your looks?
AK I don't have a feeling one way or another. I thank God for what I have. I guess I'm happy about the way I look. I think the way I look has given me some opportunities I may have not otherwise had. So I'm grateful for that.
Personal Effects is a heavyweight drama—a departure for you.
AK It's a departure from what people have seen me do, but it's the closest to home for me. Listen, you're talking to me and you haven't laughed once, right? I don't fancy myself a really comedic person. I can be funny when someone writes a funny line. But the real core of who I am isn't running around cracking people up all the time. The entire film was emotionally challenging. The character is a guy who's avenging the death of his sister, and has a lot of weight to carry around. There were days that I just came home emotionally exhausted.
What was it like working with Michelle Pfeiffer?
AK I wanted to impress her. I wanted her to have confidence in me as an acting partner. At first I was nervous about that, and when I felt that I had established her trust as an acting partner, then it was really cool.
Did you draw on your real-life experience of romancing an older woman?
AK I don't think I've ever romanced an older woman. I've romanced a woman. And so I drew from real-life experience in romancing a woman. In this film it's less about me romancing her and more about her romancing me. It's two people sort of awkwardly crashing into each other for a little bit of safety.
How did you feel about doing the love scenes?
AK If I had stepped back as myself and said, "You're going to work today to make love to Michelle Pfeiffer," that would freak me the fuck out. I would have been like, "Holy shit!" I would have had a really awkward time doing that. So I just approached it from within the character's world—just one character seeking comfort from another character, a compartmentalized existence that wasn't my own.
Your relationship is atypical and very public. How do you make it work?
AK I don't know; how do people make relationships work? I work really hard on myself to constantly become a better person, and she does the same, and by doing so we take responsibility for our actions and for one another. And we treat each other with reverence. We seek to make each other's lives better. And by doing so we share a really unique partnership.
You said you don't believe you're dating an older woman. How is that possible?
AK I don't believe that souls have an age. I honestly never think about it. If it wasn't shoved in my face on a daily basis by magazines or people asking questions like this, I don't think I would even have an awareness of it. The really weird and kind of obtuse thing for me about people putting it in my face makes me really question the gender imbalance in the world. There's no commotion when an older man is with a younger woman. There's apparently nothing unnatural about that. I've thought about this artistically—I really think there is a massive gender imbalance in our society. I'm looking at Hillary Clinton running for president right now—the fact that it's even a conversation that she's a woman, the fact that it's even a conversation that Barack Obama is not a Caucasian male. As inspired as I am that these are our candidates, I'm equally uninspired that there has to be some conversation about it and I really hope that we can have a woman president or an African-American
president, and maybe that conversation can end. And maybe we can see people as people. It also makes me think of my gay friends and just how difficult that has to be on a daily basis.
You've said Bruce Willis is one of your best friends. How can a man be best friend's with his wife's ex?
AK Bruce is a great father, and he's a great friend to my wife. My barometer for people is very strongly linked with my wife. And if my wife is friends with this man, she's friends with him for a reason, and that's because he's a great person. At first, sure, there's that initial animosity you have toward someone who's been with your significant other, that's just your fear, your insecurities. But I have such faith in my relationship with my wife that I don't feel that I have to have those kinds of insecurities. Then you get a real glimpse at who that person is as an individual. Bruce is one of my best friends. If I were in a pinch, he'd be there. And I'd be there for him, no matter what. I was fortunate enough that, when my parents
divorced, I had a really great stepdad, and that taught me a lot about "the other guy." He's a great guy, and I know my dad is a great guy. And it took my dad and stepdad a long time—maybe it took my example—to see that they could really get along. That's an environment we want to provide for our girls. Bruce, Demi, and I want to provide an environment where they feel loved by everyone. So we became a team, we became friends.
There have been recent stories that you and Demi have left Kabbalah. True?
AK It's not true. It's not like a religion. It's not something
you join, it's not a club. So the notion of leaving or going—it doesn't really have that. It's a personal choice. That's a complicated answer; the real answer is that no, I haven't defected. [Laughs] I haven't had the chip uninstalled.
How do you look back on Punk'd?
AK That's a good character, right? Somebody actually said to me, "You should play that character in a movie sometime." And I thought that was kind of cool. I was actually really happy that they recognized it as a character. I look back on it really fondly. In the end, nobody got hurt and there was no permanent damage to anyone. I think everyone understood it was all in good fun, and I had fun making it. It was a way to put all my friends to work and launch some careers. We were actually just approached to bring it back to network prime-time. I would think about producing, but I don't know if I would be in it. I don't know if I have the time, with all the stuff I've been doing.
What's your typical day like?
AK I wake up at 7:15, say hello to my girls in the morning, tell them to have a good day at school, I then go to my office to work on the company, different productions we're involved in, speaking with my development execs. We're actually building a video media studio right now. In the afternoon, I've been working on building a character for a movie, and then either I'll go to a soccer game or whatever the girls are doing, then go home, have dinner with my wife, watch a little A&E…
Did you ever think you'd be domesticated by the age of 30?
AK My life is so far from domesticated. That is not a good definition of me at all. Demi and I play around the world, and that is awesome. I was just on the phone with my agent and he said to me, "I don't know many people who have it as good as you have it." And I don't know anyone who has it as good as I have it. I have a great spiritual foundation, an amazing career, a loving, supportive wife and family, I have a lot of friends, and I don't have any enemies. I don't know a lot of people who have what I have.
What do you think is your future in Hollywood?
AK My short-term goal is building Katalyst Films. I want to turn my production company into a studio. I want to become a viable buyer and creator in the marketplace, for all content. I want to turn my company into DreamWorks, basically. I'll always have something cooking in the kitchen, but I don't think acting is going to always be my primary focus. My long-term goal? I want to find a productive way to help other people, because I feel so blessed and content I'd like to help other people feel the same way. I don't know what that means exactly, but I'm trying to get a game plan for that. I'll probably do a couple of more movies. I'll keep acting in movies as long as people want to see me in them.

Valdosta, GA - There's another raw sewage spill in Valdosta, but this one has nothing to do with flooding.
Glorice Ferrell says it makes her skin crawl to know 100,000 gallons of raw sewage is floating down the Dukes Bay Canal just behind her house on South Patterson Street.
"It's really creepy. That raw sewage, you don't know what's in it. (I) want to stay away from that," said Ferrell.
Now there's no need to worry about your drinking water. This canal is not used to supply anyone's personal wells or utility water for the city or county. But you do want to steer clear and not touch it.
Crews were out all day Tuesday working to fix the busted sewer main. Built up pressure caused it to burst open. It was made of concrete. City officials tell us they don't build them with concrete anymore for exactly that reason.
"It's not the best especially for sewers because sewer gases really attack those pipes and cause them to fail a lot sooner than you would see a clay pipe or a PBC pipe," said Henry Hicks, Utility Services Director for the City of Valdosta.
Crews are out sampling the water and making sure it's safe. But Ferrell says she's just so grossed out it could be a while before she goes back over there again.
Questions or comments concerning this spill should be directed to Environmental Manager John Waite at email@example.com or (229) 259-3592.

Kansas City, MO (Sports Network) - Kendrys Morales snapped a tie game in the
ninth with a two-run homer and the Seattle Mariners took a 6-4 win from the
Kansas City Royals Wednesday in the third test of a four-game series.
Morales came to the plate with two out against Aaron Crow (7-5) and sent his
fourth pitch offering over the center field wall.
Danny Farquhar made the two-run edge stand by setting down the Royals in order
during their final turn, recording his 12th save. It was only the Mariners'
fourth win in 13 games.
Jarrod Dyson knocked in two during a four-run fourth for Kansas City, which
had a three-game win streak stopped. Starter Ervin Santana lasted only 3 1/3
innings, charged with four runs, seven hits and three walks.

November 15, 2011
Sean Callahan & Robin Washut
Nebraska knew it had something special with the amount of returning star power it had on defense coming into the 2011 season, and while it's taken plenty of twists and turns to get there, the Blackshirts are starting to see those big names step up as expected.
The Huskers' "Big Three" of linebacker Lavonte David, cornerback Alfonzo Dennard and defensive tackle Jared Crick were regarded as one of the best defensive trios in all of college football at the beginning of the year. However, injuries prevented the group from ever gelling the way many had hoped.
Dennard missed the first four games of the season with a quad injury, and just when he came back Crick was then lost for the year with a shoulder injury. Since Dennard returned to the lineup against Wyoming, though, he and David have looked more and more like an All-American tandem.
"Those two guys are players," head coach Bo Pelini said. "They aren't only good football players, but they're tremendous competitors. They play with an attitude about them. It's infectious."
Last week's win over the Nittany Lions was a perfect example of the level of play David and Dennard have brought to the defense of late. Dennard locked up his side of the field on every passing play, forcing PSU to throw in opposite direction essentially the entire game.
"He plays with good technique and is a very physical corner," Pelini said. "I think since he came back he has played at a high level. I don't think he has played a bad game yet. I don't remember anybody catching many balls on him, and I've said this before and I'll say it again: I think he is as good of a corner as there is in the country. I believe that. I wouldn't trade him for anybody."
David was his usual dominant self, and he also came up with the biggest defensive play of the day when he stuffed Penn State running back Silas Redd with a one-on-one tackle on a fourth-and-1 late in the fourth quarter to help preserve the victory.
Defensive coordinator Carl Pelini called the play of the best individual efforts he'd ever seen, saying David only continues to show just how good of an all-around linebacker he is on a weekly basis.
"That's the thing about Lavonte, I've been saying it for two years: he's a 220-pound linebacker but he tackles like he weighs 240," Carl Pelini said. "He comes out of his hips, and he's a strong tackler at the point of attack. You can coach it all you want, but it's just an instinct for him. It's like an innate ability. He just has that knack to get up under ball carriers."
- Robin Washut
Drops are 'unacceptable' for receivers
If Nebraska's offense wants to take that next step as a unit, one of the things they have to do eliminate the drops they've had on key passing downs.
In last week's win at Penn State, redshirt freshman Kenny Bell said the Husker wide receivers had four dropped passes and four the week before in a loss to Northwestern.
Plain and simple Bell said those numbers are unacceptable.
"A drop can be the same as a turnover or an interception," Bell said. "It's absolutely demoralizing and it's something that we've talked about all year. It's something we can't allow to happen. We've got to convert on those third and longs. We have to convert on those second and mids.
"Catching the rock is all a part of that. When are not getting it done, we are not only letting the whole offense down, we are letting the whole team down."
Junior Tim Marlowe said wide receivers coach Rich Fisher has challenged his guys to have zero drops this week at Michigan.
Marlowe said NU's wide-outs have been staying late after practice each night this week to make sure you don't see any drops this week.
"It's a huge emphasis," Marlowe said. "We can't have any more drops, especially on third downs and those big money downs. We need to make those plays against a tough Michigan defense.
"Michigan has the No. 1 red zone defense in the Big Ten. We have a tough challenge ahead of us and we can't have any more plays that we leave out on the field."
One of those players that had two drops last week on key passing downs was senior Brandon Kinnie.
Following practice this week Kinnie said as a senior he should never have drops like the ones he had at Penn State.
"We are wide receivers, we can't drop the ball," Kinnie said. "You just have to get better at it. You have to focus better. That's a big part of catching the football and that's focusing, especially in a loud environment with people around you in traffic - you've got to catch it.
"That's why you are called a wide receiver and on scholarship. You've got to catch the football. It's frustrating to go through, but at the same time you just have to flush it make up for it."
- Sean Callahan
Hoke happy with Robinson's transition
Michigan head coach Brady Hoke started his tenure in Ann Arbor under good yet tricky circumstances on the offensive side of the ball.
While he wanted to get a jump on establishing his pro-style offense with the Wolverines right away, Hoke had a quarterback in Denard Robinson who didn't fit what he looked for at all at the position, but was also one of the most electrifying players in all of college football.
It's been a balancing act for Hoke, Robinson and MU offensive coordinator Al Borges this season, as Michigan has tried to install its brand of offense while also playing to Robinson's strength as a dual-threat weapon at quarterback.
On Tuesday, Hoke said he's been happy with the way all parties involved have handled the adjustment through 10 games.
"I think Al Borges has done a tremendous job of understanding that we have a special guy who athletically can do some things that some other guys can't do," Hoke said. "Having the combination of the things with the two-back sets and also having the combinations with the zone reads, quarterback powers, isos, those kinds of things that keep the ball in his hands, I think Al's done a good job. We've also tried to limit Denard to where it's not and it never is a one-man offense."
Last season, Robinson often times was the one and only source of offense for the Wolverines. He set the single-season D-I record for rushing yards by a quarterback and became the only player in NCAA history to both pass and rush for 1,500 yards. Robinson also broke the Big Ten record with 4,272 yards of total offense and led the conference in rushing.
Things have definitely slowed down for the junior this season, though. Robinson has barely completed 50 percent his passes and has as many interceptions (13) as he does touchdowns.
Hoke said part of the reason for Robinson's drop in numbers has been due to the emergence of other threats on offense, particularly freshman running back Fitzgerald Toussaint. Toussaint rushed for192 yards and a touchdown on 27 carries in last week's win over Illinois.
While his numbers might not show it, Hoke said he felt Robinson has gotten better and better each week within the Wolverines' new style of offense.
"I think the way he comes out every day and his work ethic every day, his leadership and his real attention to detail, whether it be in the throw game or carrying out fakes and those things, I think he's done a tremendous job," Hoke said. "We're glad he's here at Michigan."
Some easy road trips
Typically for Marlowe, his family from Youngstown, Ohio, would have to fly into Lincoln to watch most of his games.
However, with Nebraska's move to the Big Ten, this past week's game at Penn State and Saturday's game at Michigan have been just short car trips for the Marlowe family.
Marlowe said he's probably one of the few guys on the team that has really benefited from the move to the Big Ten in terms of making it easier on his family to make road games.
"I think I had about 10 or 12 family members at the last game and I think I'm going to have 16 at this game," Marlowe said. "It's been great for my family just to be able to drive and save some money instead of flying out here for every single game. The move to the Big Ten for me was awesome and my family is loving it."
- Sean Callahan
Quick hits
***Guard Spencer Long said Cole Pensick was the top backup at guard against Penn State. This week, Long said Brent Qvale was back in practice after sitting out while recovering from a concussion he suffered in practice. Long said it was up in the air who would be the top backup this week behind him and Seung Hoon Choi against Michigan.
***Saturday won't be the first time NU linebacker Lavonte David will go up against Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson. It turns out David and Robinson played against each other back in high school in Miami.
***Tight end Jake Long has been promoted to the No. 2 tight end spot behind Kyler Reed following the injury to Ben Cotton, but Long said the team is hoping to get Cotton back by the end of the season. Until then, Long said Kevin Thomsen would be the No. 3 tight end.
***Offensive coordinator Tim Beck said he's seen a lot of good things on film from Michigan's defense, particularly from its defensive line. He said defensive tackle Mike Martin would be as good as any player the Huskers have faced this season.
***Defensive end Eric Martin said he's getting more and more comfortable at the position with every game and week of practice he gets under his belt. He credits his added experience for allowing him to be able make more plays the past few weeks, especially in the pass rush.
***There's a chance Nebraska might be looking to use Martin as way to contain the elusive Robinson on Saturday. When asked if his role would change at all this week because of what Robinson brings to the table, Martin said he didn't "really have a comment on that" and that Nebraska would "just do what we have to do to stop him."
***Hoke said he's been very impressed with Nebraska on both sides of the football this season, but he's especially taken notice of the Huskers' play offensively the past few weeks.
"The footprint that they play with - being a physical, tough football team that's going to play through the whistle on both sides of the ball," Hoke said. "I think they play extremely hard. They execute well. They have a running back in Burkhead; Rex is just a tremendous back. He's a downhill guy and he runs with a lot of authority. Taylor Martinez, the way he's managed the offense and made plays within the offense, I think they're just a tremendous football team." ...More...

I'm planning on seeing a psychiatrist soon, maybe they can figure out what's wrong with me. But I just felt like I had to share this with someone.
Hi Saffron, my name's Patrick and I'm a pretty long-time sufferer of, well, pretty much everything you described in your post up there. I was just browsing around for somewhere to post about what I go through and found this place, and yours was the first thread I clicked on, so I registered and here I am. I've read many texts from people who understand and treat these problems and they say that it's just the body going through the motions of what would normally happen if you did something like high stress exercise or were running for your life. In other words, it's scary because it happens at times when you aren't exercising, therefore you don't understand the sudden weakness and heart rate increase. Unfortunately, because you have a panic attack, it can mean that you'll give yourself more of them if you let it control you. Every day for me is a struggle just about, but you're right - distracting yourself is a great way to take the edge off. What I do is find something that I can analyze like the names and back stories of favorite book or movie characters and just think about them. I also find that sitting or laying in front of an electric fan in a cool room or spraying some cool water in my face helps. The initial panic shouldn't last too long, and I tell myself that, and that there's nothing really wrong. I'm not saying I handle it well sometimes, in fact I've probably made a fool of myself in the past. I'm just trying to give you some tips on how to deal with the whole thing. I remember one time I was alone in my apartment in or around 2007 and I had the WORST panic attack I can remember, so bad that I had no energy and thought for sure I was about to die. The thing is, since I was so pumped up mentally I couldn't fall asleep (and usually that helps to "reset" my mind). I ended up going to the hospital and worrying my dad, when all they had to tell me was I have panic problems (thanks guys, but I knew that lol). You're not alone. Also remember, there are hotlines to call even if you're just having a panic attack and it helps to talk to someone. Good luck with whatever you face each day.
SAffron, talk theapy with a qualified psychiatrist and medication to calm down the fligh or fight adrenaline surges. For me, talk therapy is very important. I do use meds, but talking and reassurance from a good pdoc or therapist is essential.Best of luck. You will recover. It takes time, patience and courage.Best regards,Julie

GOLDEN VALLEY, Minn. - Extreme cold weather has postponed outdoor events and cancelled others, but not everyone is racing indoors to beat the cold.
The extreme cold has forced cross country skiing races to be postponed at Theodore Wirth Park in Minneapolis on Monday.
The Oval Ice Rink in Roseville closed due to the extreme temps, too.
"We're offering free got cocoa," chucked Fred Seymour with the Hyland Ski Are in Bloomington.
Skiers and snowboarders still hit the hills at Hyland despite dangerous wind chills.
"We kept a close eye on everyone,"said Seymour. "If we see signs of frostbite we will tell them to come inside."
Some schools in Minnesota plan to close or open late as the coldest air of the winter settles in.
The Duluth News Tribune reports all public, private and charter schools in Duluth will be closed Tuesday because of the extreme cold and wind-chills.
Other Minnesota school districts planning to open two hours late on Tuesday include Chokio-Alberta, Bertha-Hewitt and Dawson-Boyd.
Spirit Mountain ski area in Duluth closed early Monday because of the cold.
The National Weather Service says Monday's high temperature at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport only reached 2 below zero. That breaks a 4-year-old record of continuous high temperatures at or above zero at the airport.
Forecasters say lows Monday night will range from 20 to 30 below in northern Minnesota to 10 to 20 below in the south.

Berkley's RC Van is a variant of the Pony featured in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, used by Berkleys RC. The van is infamous for being extremely rare as it cannot be found outside the missions it appears in and can only be obtained using a glitch (see below). It sometimes has boxes of model cars in the back - the same ones that can be seen in Zero RC. Even though it's based on the Pony there are a few differences, like the taillight design and the location of the gas cap door. There is an optional side-mission called Beefy Baron in the back room of Zero RC in which you must destroy these vans with an RC Baron within a time limit.
The van has a slightly higher top speed then most; according to the game's files it's top speed is 80 miles per hour (134 kilometers per hour) and it has moderate acceleration. It can sustain quite a bit of damage due to its large size and it has pretty good stability when rounding corners. It actually has average handling in most scenarios.
There is a game glitch that can be used to obtain the Berkley Van. First, enter the Zero RC shop in Garcia. Head to the back of the shop, you will find a red marker. Enter it to start the Beefy Baron mission. Once the mission starts and you have control of the Baron press the change view button (PC default is V). Your view will change to a Berkley Van that has spawned high up above San Andreas with Carl Johnson in the drivers seat (you can't control it until the mission ends). The van will fall for about 15 seconds before smashing onto the roof of Zero's RC shop. Now fail the mission, (either by keeping the baron still for a while and pressing the self destruct button, or by waiting for the timer to run out.) you will appear back in the shop. Quickly run outside and use the Jetpack cheat, or use your own if you have one nearby, and use it to fly up the the roof of the shop. The Berkley Van will be there waiting for you, if it is not, then try again. Now you can simply drive it off the roof of the shop and it's all yours.
Other means of acquiring the van
Vans have been sighted driving around The Sherman Dam and Las Venturas while driving a Burrito, Pony, or Rumpo. The van is also rarely seen driving on the road at The Fallen Tree and the factories near Fort Carson, but like in the aforementioned Las Venturas and Sherman Dam, driving any other van will make spawn chances higher.
- The vehicle's ID, model, texture, and text entry names are Topfun. Only the text string has the name Berkleys RC Van.
- The default radio station in the Berkley's RC Van is Playback FM.

However, look at the numbers of folrart, and logins and interest in general over the last month and then this week, I would say that interest in collecting events from the Alteil playerbase as a whole is high.
It seems you have missed one vital point here that has plagued Alteil US since it's inception. It really concerns me that after 5 years, you are still missing this one, vitally important thing: THIS IS NOT JAPAN. Stop trying to be Alteil JP, you don't have the same audience, work ethic, or staffing. Listen to your people, I know they don't always know what they want, but, when you hear them all saying the same thing, then you need to hear it.
Grinding event are most popular according to your statistics. Grinding events are a real grind (not a good thing) for those who voice their thoughts. Why then are they so popular? Is it that you are offering increased rewards for playing? The prizes offered? Perhaps you need to find what aspects are working, which are not, and do something else? That does not mean wait for JP to do something then copy it, that means get creative, try different things - if you keep doing what you have done, you will keep getting what you have had.
Honestly, if you have no intention of improving what was already there, then you are wasting your time. Stop thinking JP has the winning formula for US. Fix the costs, most of the world is NOT wealthy like Japan. Make some changes to the events or create new ones. (I don't think limiting the reward cards on grinds is the answer, but then, I don't think grinding is the answer for any game, ever.) The quality of your clients experience should be your focus. Perhaps you need to set the site up so you have more control over events and thus allow for more creativity, I don't know. But more creativity IS required.
Start targetting feedback by asking questions like, "what do you think was the best part of this event" "what was the worst" "If you could change one aspect of this event, what would it be?". Asking questions like this will lead you the answers you should be seeking. Think about the answers honestly and wholistically.
For example: If everyone says they would change the number or availability of grind reward cards for collecting, then there is a good chance the event forced people to play more games than they actually wanted to. That should lead you to the conclusion that perhaps shorter events would be better? It should certainly alarm you to the fact you are forcing your players to "burn out" on your game (play too much get sick of it, move on) - SOMETHING YOU HAVE NOT NOTICED FOR YEARS. (set 6 had heaps of grinding events which left us with a small player base - do the research, act on it).
One day, someone somewhere will thank me for my suggestions.
Until then, have a nice day.

He's not the biggest player on the field in most of his games but "heart" is hard to measure and speed is something else entirely. If you ask people familiar with high school football around Norman (Okla.), Ryan Broyles has what it takes, and if his recent offers are any indication, college coaches feel the same about this talented athelete ...More...

Takigakure (滝隠れの里, Takigakure no Sato, Literally meaning: Village Hidden by a Waterfall) is a village located in an unnamed country. In terms of the village's appearance, Takigakure seems to be based on mostly Southeast Asian aesthetics. Their current leader is Shibuki.
Around the time of the village's formation, the village tasked Kakuzu with assassinating Hashirama Senju, the First Hokage. When Kakuzu failed in this mission he was treated harshly and imprisoned, so in a violent hatred, he escaped and defected. Before leaving he took the secret of the village's prized Earth Grudge Fear along with the hearts of every elder of the village. At some point, the village came into possession of the Seven-Tails, making it the only known village outside of the five great villages to hold a tailed beast. This tailed beast was sealed into Fū, who was eventually caught and the beast extracted by Akatsuki, resulting in Fū's death. In the anime, based on what Deidara told Naruto Uzumaki, Fū was hated and neglected by her village, and that the citizens were glad that she was captured and killed. She was also one of the first two jinchūriki to be caught.
Takigakure has yet to be seen in the manga, but in the anime it is shown to be built around a large tree. It also, predictably, has a waterfall as a defining landmark. Despite being surrounded by four other countries, Takigakure has never been successfully invaded, a feat they are very proud of.[1] The village is renowned for being able to produce Hero Water every hundred years, which gives whoever drinks it ten times their ordinary chakra level; however, the strain of its use can prove fatal.
Hero Water hiding place
In the Anime the Hero Water was hidden in a small pavilion like structure, situated deep within the Large tree's roots, in the center of the village.
Waterfall caves
In the anime, in order to access the village, one have to go through a underwater cavesystem below the large waterfall. The cavesystem's exit leads into the large lake in the middle of Takigakure.
- In the spin-off manga Rock Lee no Seishun Full-Power Ninden, Takigakure shinobi are often-time recurring antagonists.
