A. Lawrence Kolbe
Principal Emeritus
Main +1.617.864.7900
Dr. Kolbe's work focuses on applied financial economics. His projects address risk, return, and regulatory policy for rate-regulated industries; income tax disputes; natural resource tax and royalty disputes; and firm, security, or project valuation questions in a wide variety of settings. Clients for this work have included federal, state/provincial, and local government agencies; national research institutes; industry organizations; and private firms in various industries.
Dr. Kolbe is the co-author of three books and has published a number of articles. He has served as an expert witness in many venues in North America, as well as in The Hague, London, and Melbourne.
Before co-founding The Brattle Group, where he served as President and then Chairman for a number of years, he was a Director of Putnam, Hayes and Bartlett. Before that, he was a Vice President of Charles River Associates. Earlier, he spent 14 years on active duty in the U.S. Air Force.
Served as an expert witness on behalf of the Tax Division of the U.S. Department of Justice or the Commissioner of Internal Revenue in a number of cases over the last decade involving sophisticated financial strategies that reduce income tax liability. His testimony has been cited in a number of judicial decisions that found that the strategies lacked economic substance apart from their tax consequences and/or that they lacked a substantial non-tax business purpose. Among these decisions are Jade Trading, U.S. Court of Federal Claims; Country Pine Finance, U.S. Tax Court; Fidelity International Currency Advisor A Fund, LLC, and Fidelity High Tech Advisor A Fund, LLC, consolidated, U.S. District Court, District of Massachusetts; K2 Trading Ventures, LLC, U.S. Court of Federal Claims, and Mark L. Kerman and Lucy M. Kerman, U.S. Tax Court, Affirmed, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. The Court of Appeals decision explicitly confirmed that Dr. Kolbe's analytical approach was reasonable under the U.S. Supreme Court's Daubert "gatekeeping" standard. (For clarity, Dr. Kolbe also has assisted taxpayers in disputes involving the same legal issues, but so far has not served as a witness on behalf of a taxpayer.)
Recently served as an expert witness in a dispute over the economic interpretation of the risk-reward terms under which a power plant needed to be repaired. Details are confidential.
Provided evidence in proceedings before Canada's National Energy Board that has been cited in Board decisions that recognize that the required return on equity depends on the market-value capital structure (i.e., debt-equity combination) of the company in question. (See in particular the NEB's Trans Québec & Maritimes decision, RH-1-2008, and its recent TransCanada Pipelines Limited et al. decision, RH-003-2011.) This can make a material difference in the appropriate allowed return on equity for rate-regulated firms when the book-value capital structure to which the return is applied differs from the market-value capital structures of the sample companies used in the analysis.

* Deal reached to spin off Greek units of Cypriot banks
* Euro gains limited by risk of Cyprus banking collapse
* Weaker-than-expected German Ifo index weighs on euro
By Gertrude Chavez-Dreyfuss
NEW YORK, March 22 (Reuters) - The euro rose across the board on Friday on optimism Cyprus will be able to cobble together a last-minute deal that will avert a financial meltdown before a Monday deadline.
The EU has given Cyprus until Monday to raise the 5.8 billion euros it needs to secure a 10 billion euro international lifeline. Without a deal, the European Central Bank will cut funds to Cypriot banks.
On Friday, however, Cyprus moved a step closer to raising those funds by agreeing to spin off Greek units of debt-ridden Cypriot banks. The Cypriot presidency said the deal had been settled with favourable terms for Cyprus.
"We're seeing large short-covering going on and that's a huge part of the driver for the euro rally," said Brian Kim, currency strategist at RBS Securities in Stamford, Connecticut.
"It seems that investors are expecting a deal before the Monday deadline. So they're not placing new shorts on the euro going into the weekend. They don't want to be caught on the wrong side of the bet in case a deal does materialize."
There's still a long way to go, however. Cyprus's talks with Russia ended without a positive outcome just yet, but the troubled euro zone government said it has other proposals on the table.
In early New York trading, the euro rose 0.4 percent on the day to $1.2943, with traders citing buying by a UK bank. It hit a four-month low of $1.2843 earlier in the week after Cyprus rejected the terms of a proposed European Union bailout.
Despite Cyprus, the euro was on track to end the week on a positive note, with its best weekly performance since early Feburary.
Strategists, however, said the single currency could struggle to break above $1.30 and would remain vulnerable to developments in Cyprus and the risk of contagion to other euro zone countries.
Nonetheless, market participants don't seem to be panicking.
"There's a lot of competing noise from the headlines. The market has been relatively constrained but if we were talking about a bigger country it would be a lot more volatile," said Simon Smith, currency economist at FxPro.
"The euro has priced in a fair amount of bad news already and there's still some underlying hope they will stitch something together. But even if we do see Cyprus remain within the euro zone it's not going to be a massive positive for the euro."
Smith said he expected the euro to grind lower towards $1.24-$1.25 over the next three months.
Traders expect the euro increasingly to reflect the emerging risks to the euro zone. While the European Central Bank has tools in place to prevent contagion, an exit by Cyprus would still sour sentiment towards European assets.
Earlier in the session the euro hit a two-week low of 121.44 yen after Germany's Ifo survey of business morale fell short of expectations.. It later recovered and was last trading up 0.3 percent on the day at 122.81 yen.
Asian investors were cited as buyers of short-dated options betting on drops to 121 and 120.50 yen.
The dollar was little changed against the yen at 94.90 yen , having earlier fallen to 94.195 yen. The highly liquid Japanese currency tends to be bought during times of economic uncertainty and heightened financial market stress.
On Thursday the dollar shed about 1.2 percent as investors covered their negative yen bets after new Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda came out less dovish than many had expected.
Gains in the euro saw the dollar index dip 0.1 percent to 82.630, retreating further from last week's seven-month high of 83.166.

You are hereProducts / GT2VolTools
Download Now
GT2VolTools is a collection of two apps that will extract all files from and create new GT2.VOL files for the various Gran Turismo 2 game discs and demos (GTVolTool) and extract various bits of data from the game for easier human consumption (GT2DataExploder).
Unlike the original GT2Vol.exe program, these tools are both open source and supports the VOL files from the various demos. GTVolTool will also now explode the much simpler Gran Turismo 2000 VOLs (tested on PAPX-90203), and the various demos and final versions of Gran Turismo 3 and Gran Turismo Concept. However none of these new formats can be rebuilt yet.
GT2DataExploder only supports retail Gran Turismo 2 versions because the data format in the demo versions is a bit different. That doesn't matter though, since this tool is not generally useful. Most of the information it outputs is available in human readable form on my GT2 site
Download the zip below and extract the files. Then just click on GTVolToolGUI and you're good to go. If you prefer the command line instead, GTVolTool is the command line version of the GUI. Both do the same thing, but the command line program can output a list of file sizes/locations in the VOL, to make single file replacement easier. Command line usage is as follows:
Gran Turismo 2/2K/3 VOL File Exploder/Rebuilder - http;//www.airesoft.co.uk Usage: GTVolTool.exe -e2(xplode GT2) C:\\Path\\To\\GT2.Vol OutputDir <-u> OR GTVolTool.exe -r2(ebuild GT2) C:\\Path\\To\\explodedVol NewVolFile <-r> O R GTVolTool.exe -e3(xplode GT3) C:\\Path\\To\\GT3.vol OutputDir <-u> OR GTVolTool.exe -l3(list GT3) C:\\Path\\To\\GT3.Vol OR GTVolTool.exe -e2k(xplode GT2000) C:\\Path\\To\\GT2K.Vol OutputDir For -e2 and -e3 The last argument is optional and can be anything. If specified, any gzip archives (those files ending in .gz) will be decompressed into a 'decomp' folder within the folder where the .gz file is. For -r2 The last argument is optional and can be anything. If specified, files in any 'decomp' child directories will be compressed and have .gz added to their filename before being inserted -e2k This explodes a GT2000 VOL. Only tested on PAPX-90203. It does not support GT3. -l3 This outputs a list of the entries in a GT3.vol and their filesize/offset. This is primarily useful if you just want to replace one file without going through the entire explode - replace - rebuild process
GT2DataExploder on the other hand is command line only. It's usage is as follows:
Usage: GT2DataExploder C:\Path\To\Extracted\Vol.Files OutputDir Label Extracts data from various decompressed Gran Turismo 2 files into tabbed text files suitable for importing into a database etc. If present in the vol, it will parse ENG, USA, and JP data. Other European language data isn't used. Note that this tool WILL NOT WORK ON DEMO versions, the file data is formatted differently. Example: GT2DataExploder C:\GT2\PalVol C:\GT2\PalVolData PalVol
The download contains the source and binary of both tools. GT2VolTool(Gui) require the .Net Framework 2.0 to run. If you have an anyway decent/recent computer, you probably have it. Windows 7 and 8 include it automatically. If it doesn't run, that'll be what you need. GT2DataExploder requires the VC2005 Redistributable, again, unless you're on XP you should have this installed by default. You'll need 7-zip to extract the archive.

ExperienceThough, I never offically became a tutor before. But Chinese is my first language, I love Chinese very much and I have helped many students study this subject before. In my opinion, Chinese is one of the most difficult languages in the world, but also one of the most beautiful languages. I finished 12 years' Chinese education, and I believe I could help you do well in any Chinses class. I want be a tutor cause I want to help more people to know more about my country. Also, I did very well in SAT Math, so I can also help you on that subject.
HobbiesI love listening to music, especially Chinese traditional music.

Face your fears. I found this video on Facebook yesterday – Will Smith talking about jumping out of a plane and all that goes along with that. Definitely worth the 2 minutes!
See in the video below:
WATCH VIDEO: Here Will Smith talks about the fear and the experience of jumping out of a plane.
Here are some of my favourite quotes from the video. Worth pondering…
"What do you need that fear for?"
"…at the point of maximum danger is the point of minimum fear."
"God placed the best things in life on the other side of terror."

The renowned Kurt Vonnegut, creator of some of the wildest and most imaginative stories ever put to paper, created an instant classic in 1985, when he wrote this remarkable book. Set in 1986, the post-apocalyptic story takes place on the Galapagos Islands, where tourists repopulate the earth with a bizarre race of creatures. Narrator Jonathan Davis does an outstanding job in this reading, capturing the essence of Vonnegut's prose—the cruel sense of humor and the visionary idealism—in a believable performance that invites repeated listens. Davis's intimate reading will transport listeners to another time and place, endlessly layered and fascinating. L.B. 2009 Audies Finalist © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine [Published: OCTOBER 2008]

There have been many articles on the subjects covered by this book, but no attempt to pull so much diverse material together into a single publication."Julian Raby, author of VeBérénice, Dürer, and the Oriental Mode
"Mack's imaginatively researched and lively text explores the acquisition and interpretation of Islamic works of art in Renaissance Italy, in media such as ceramics, glass, and textiles. The book's emphasis is strongly visual; it is richly illustrated with objects of stunning design and workmanship from an impressive range of museum collections. The book will serve as a source of enduring value for the specialist, just as it will delight the avid museum-goer."Deborah Howard, author of VeBérénice and the East: The Impact of the Islamic World on Venetian Architecture 1100-1500
"Mack's survey of luxury objects and techniques in the late Middle Ages and especially during the Renaissance is excellently researched, well written, learned and interesting at the same time. . . . The scholarship is superior, in fact quite amazing, if one considers the variety of topics involved, the illustrations plentiful but essential."Oleg Grabar, author of The Shape of the Holy: Early Islamic Jerusalem
"This manuscript traces the influence of oriental motifs, imagery and craftsmanship on Italian artists and craftsmen, offering a valuable overview of a series of complex cultural and aesthetic interchanges. I found the discussion illuminating, a fascinating read on the whole."Patricia Fortini Brown, author of VeBérénice and Antiquity: The Venetian Sense of the Past

Yes, yes it can.
Reason being is that social media offers more information than anything else in the world. YouTube alone is the second largest search engine in the world! It is absolutely incredible the amount of information that can be found on a simple social media site. What is astonishing is that all of this information is compounded not by "spiders" or anything of the sort, but it is provided by the users itself. Every bit of information is uploaded by users and the businesses trying to increase their ROI.
But with that being said, let me digress into the topic that the title speaks about. We all know that the housing market is still in a slump. It's a tough sell and an easy buy if you can secure a loan. Long Island is taking a hit when it comes to housing. A majority of its young people are leaving the island because of the high cost of living. This will eventually lead to population problems later on in the future. Build A Better Burb does studies on this and offers some solutions.
Social media can without a doubt help the housing problem all over the United States. As I said, being that social media acts as a huge search engine, users are able to find information regarding houses for sales, loan rates offered from banks, and even local news on foreclosures and things of that nature. With an older population already stable in their own housing situation, the housing and real-estate market need to target the younger individual. This demographic is all on Facebook. It would be a wise thing to do.
Social media marketing for housing could help if used correctly. Get with it and start helping out the market!

Ospreys take over at the top of the table after sinking Dragons in Welsh derby
A weakened Ospreys went to the top of the Guinness PRO12 table with a comfortable bonus point win over Dragons in the Welsh derby at the Liberty Stadium.
The home side, who have now beaten Dragons 10 times in a row, registered five tries in the 35-17 success with wing Keelan Giles crossing twice to take his tally to eight tries in four games.
There were other tries from scrum-half Tom Habberfield, hooker Sam Baldwin, and replacement scrum-half Brendan Leonard with man of the match Josh Matavesi converting all five.
The Dragons scored two late tries through Matthew Screech and Pat Howard, both converted by Rhys Jones, with Nick Macleod kicking a first half penalty.
Flanker Dan Lydiate, a former Dragon, and hooker Scott Baldwin started for Ospreys after being released by Wales.
However Dan Biggar, Rhys Webb, Sam Davies and seven forwards were absent because of Wales commitments. Without fly-halves Biggar and Davies, centre Matavesi stepped up to wear the number 10 jersey.
The Dragons were without three Wales squad players but former Wales international Tavis Knoyle made his first start for the visitors after being released by Cardiff Blues.
Ospreys went into half-time14-3 up - but they did not have things all their own way in the opening quarter.
First Macleod kicked a fourth minute penalty following a high tackle, before prop Dmitri Arhip found himself in the sin bin after short-arming Ed Jackson.
That put the home side on the back foot but Dragons failed to make the most of the one-man advantage.
And, back to 15 men Ospreys, scored their opening try on 22 minutes when Habberfield squeezed over after darting down the blindside of a five-metre scrum.
Ospreys continued to pile on the pressure but the second try did not come until the 40th minute when Baldwin crashed over after coming off the back of a drive from a lineout.
The chance of the second try had come after a good work from Matavesi, who had sent Giles on a 30-metre run.
Giles lit up the start of the second half when he was put over by a fine offload from Matavesi.
The wing was at it again 12 minutes later when he kicked a loose ball upfield and sprinted away to slide in by the posts for the bonus point.
Replacement Leonard ran in for the fifth try before Dragons struck back, with tries for Screech and Howard crossing.

Letter(s) from Margarita Morozova to Frank (Germany)
Letter 1
Dear Sir,
As you have probably already guessed marriage agencies rip you off on a constant basis. I offer you hundred best profiles of the most beautiful girls I collected for the last month (fresh ones are coming regularly) from Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and other FSU countries seeking marriage, for just 7 (seven) USdollars in a package.
You will have no limitations on correspondence, and no middlemen, you will correspond with girls directly. And there is a lot beautiful girls to choose from.
All girls have their own e-mail addresses, postal addresses and data, most of them have phone numbers. Since the sum asked is symbolic (e.g. very small) cash should be sent by registered air mail only. It's not a fraud, but real deal you will hardly find anywhere else.
Samples are attached in sample.doc file. Sticking in more pix would make a file too big.
Best regards,
ps Please no silly questions, such as: where u got profiles from?, where did you find my e-mail? who you are? what u look like?, and so on....
This is just a profitable proposition for both sides. I am not interested in relationship.
pps Those interested in models (including erotic models and also russian x-videos) are welcome. Yet, again, only serious propositions please.
pps I do not have a site, I am not a marriage agency, I just a private person having access to fresh girls' profiles thanks to my position as a translator
Letter 2
well, I am really tired of those nicks too, yet it' s sites' policy, not mine.
my real name Margarita Morosova
As you have already known I am 27, free-lance journalist, never married, no kids.
Have you been married?
I am nice, kind, romantic, humorous, loyal respectful and interested in culture, going-out, travelling.
All the same I can tell about myself too, yet those are just words.
If you want to know something particular about me - just ask.
Listen, I do not really like long talking and fruitless correspondence.
I liked your profile and I think you liked me.
I have a short holidays approximately from 13 to 20 november.
If you wish we could meet.
I go to on my own expenses (I will need your address, phone numbers and instruction on how to find you there) and you then buy me a ticket back home to Minsk or Moscow.
How about my idea ? :)
Margarita Morosova
Letter 3
Well, It would be great if you could pick me up at airport, of course... and answering other questions of yours...
Yes, I have visa, it was done for other purpose, I wanted to work a little as nanny in one of german-russian family but my contract failed, husband of that couple lost job and asked me to postpone a deal until spring. So I obtained a visa but have no place to go.
I do not need anything. Thank you for asking however. What I need is just insuarence, money on my name in Germany so that I feel safe, some 150-200 euro, that is enough to come back home, that's it.
It does not mean I have full pockets of cash, yet I counted that I have enough to spend a week or longer in Germany.
I would like to see the country very much. I have been to Usa and saw Frankfurt from airport only.
As for job.... I am columnist on astrology in several newspapers, politics sometimes (rarely) too.
I have apartment in Moscow, here in Belarus I rent it on contract until next May.
Wishes on visit... I would like to ga around and make lots of pix as I usually do abroad.
And I hope to befriend with you (and not only, I am a big girl) and I hope to stay at your place again :)
Sorry, I am a little too frank and direct person. I do not like to beat the bush as english people say, for me there are only yes or no. The russian way....
you may call at my mobile too (I AM seldom at home anyway): 375-0214-6911026

Tag Archives: Antonio Brown
Pittsburgh Steelers 2016-17 Super Bowl Chances
The Pittsburgh Steelers are one of the toughest NFL teams to figure out ahead of the 2016 season—in a good, potentially great, way.
Just after the 2015 campaign ended, had you asked if the Steelers would improve upon their 10-win performance and wild card berth the following year, the answer would have been a resounding yes. They would have Martavis Bryant, Antonio Brown and Le'veon Bell for an entire season. Ben Roethlisberger remains one of the most underrated great quarterbacks of all time. How could they not emerge as a dynamo on the back of perhaps the scariest offense in the NFL?
Well, a spanner or two (or three) has been thrown into those plans. Stud wide receiver Bryant is suspended for the entirety of the 2016 crusade after violating the league's substance abuse policy. Bell, the Steelers' star running back, is also facing a four-game suspension for skipping a drug test. Multiple reports have the Steelers confident that the suspension levied will be overturned, and that Bell will, in fact, be available for their Week 1 sparring.
Still, these types of hiccups are troubling. You want your best players on the field every week, and the Steelers won't have that luxury with Bryant watching from home all year. And there's a chance they'll be debilitated even further for the first 25 percent of the season with regards to Bell. Those losses would cripple most teams.
But the Steelers aren't most teams. Not by a long shot. Bell's backup, Deangelo Williams, shined as the No. 1 running man through the first few weeks of last season. Brown, meanwhile, is the best wideout in football. Having Bryant on the field, as one of the most lethal deep-ball threats in the game, makes his job easier; not having him on the field, though, doesn't make Brown's job impossible.
Brown caught more than 70 percent of his passes while racking in 136 total receptions and more than 1,830 yards. The last player to reel in at least 69 percent of his passes while clearing the 1,800-yard plateau? That would be Jerry Rice, during the 1995 season, as a member of the San Francisco 49ers, according to pro-football-reference. That's some serious company, and it suggests that Brown can carry an entire receiving corps on his own.
He has a better chance than most one-man shows anyway. The Steelers' running game, whether they are using Bell or Williams, will open up plenty of opportunities in the air, while Big Ben has the ridiculously strong arm necessary to capitalize on Brown's speed against double coverage. Wide Receiver Sammie Coates has also stepped up in training camp and could be speeding toward a subtly spectacular season. Any production of Bryant's that he can make up will make life exponentially easier on Brown and the rest of the Steelers' offense.
The defense, of course, will need to tighten up as well. It was hot and cold last season, and appeared to cool off as the year progressed. The Steelers, nevertheless, ranked 11th in points allowed per game.
If they can stay right around that area, they'll be just fine.
Pittsburgh's passing prevention will most likely need to improve for that to happen. While the Steelers ranked among the top six defenses in total interceptions, they finished 30th in passing yards allowed and 19th in passing touchdowns relinquished.
Their secondary would often get burned taking too many gambles, so they'll have to see if rookie cornerbacks Artie Burns out of Miami (first round) and Sean Davis out of Maryland (second round) can make an immediate impact. Anytime defenses are even slightly dependent on newbies in the secondary, the potential for some sort of regression exists.
And yet, there's a reason why Bovada gives the Steelers top-five Super Bowl odds (+1200), in addition to the second-best AFC Title chances (+550), behind only the New England Patriots (+275). Even a slightly below-average defense puts you in a great position if you're carried by a dominant offense. And we know the Steelers will have that, even without Bryant and, potentially, Bell.
Besides, regardless of what Pittsburgh's secondary looks like, it will be buoyed by a stingy run defense. The Steelers ranked in the top five of both rushing yards allowed per game and touchdowns let up on the ground last season, and they didn't lose any personnel that would suggest they're do for a decline.
Have a look at who the Steelers play next, scan their entire schedule, find out the best betting lines for every Pittsburgh game and heed some tips on how to make more money from your Steelers bets.
It helps, too, that the AFC isn't exactly overrunning with powerhouses. You have the Patriots, yes. But the No. 2 slot in the conference is far from determined. Any one of the Cincinnati Bengals (+800), Denver Broncos (+900), Indianapolis Colts (+1100) or Kansas City Chiefs (+1100) could end up being Super Bowl contenders or pretenders. The Steelers, on paper, are easily the best team of that bunch. They have the best quarterback, in Roethlisberger, and it isn't even kind of close, and their backfield combination of Bell and Williams leads the pack by a similar margin.
In any other season, given the absence of Bryant and the uncertainty of Pittsburgh's passing defense, it might be tough to envision the Steelers as Super Bowl contenders. They would be playoff-bound, sure. But there would, presumably, be another team or two to slot ahead of them. That's just not the case this year. The Steelers are a good-to-great football squad that will be propped up even further by the AFC's shallow juggernaut pool—and there is, by no means, any shame in that.
We like the Steelers to advance to the AFC Championship game against the New England Patriots, where they'll likely fall just shy of their ultimate Super Bowl aspirations. Then again, if a few things go their way, we could see the Steelers play Green Bay in an all-anticipated Super Bowl Final
Pittsburgh – A Team in Transition
Change with all sides has to happen over time, and there has been a gradual change in the personnel at the Steelers over the past few years. The challenge ahead this year for head coach, Mike Tomlin, will be getting back to having a winning season after a 12-4 record and a playoff loss to Denver in 2011 turned into an 8-8 season in 2012.
Defensively, the biggest loss was linebacker, James Harrison, who was released after salary-cap issues (and is now with the Bengals) but it was the offense that saw the biggest changes, with new back-ups behind quarterback, Ben Roethlisberger, a new backfield, a much-changed receiving corps, and a new look on the offensive line.
The steady part of the Steelers offense is Roethlisberger; he is the main constant in the attack and, with a new supporting cast this year, fans betting on the NFL will be hoping that he (for once) can stay healthy this year and play all 16 regular season games, something that has happened only once in all his seasons as a starter.
His fitness is vital, especially with veteran backups, Charlie Batch and Byron Leftwich, gone and replaced by another veteran, in Bruce Gradkowski and fourth-round draft pick, Landry Jones, who must be considered a work-in-progress. Jones went from a potential first-round pick to a fourth-rounder after a disappointing senior season; he certainly isn't NFL ready – yet.
Pittsburgh has always been considered a team that can run the football but, last year, they couldn't accomplish that, mainly due to injuries. This year, they certainly expect improvement to come in that department, as they have drafted Le'Veon Bell in the second round; he should quickly take over as the featured and starting back.
He's a workhorse back with good size (6-1, 244); he's durable, and can take tacklers a few yards; he's also very powerful and relentless, a good acquisition for the Steelers' style of running game that they like to play.
Bell should have solid support on the ground with Issac Redman and Jonathan Dwyer competing for the number two spot on the roster. As things stand, it looks as though Redman will get the nod. Bell is likely to see the field on 3rd down as long as he continues to improve his pass blocking & blitz pickup. Will Johnson returns at fullback and will be a good addition in a mainly blocking role.
Question marks must remain over the receiving corps though, especially as Heath Miller at tight-end, their leading receiver in 2012 (71 catches), is not yet slated to return after injury. With him missing, the receivers look like a weaker group, especially as Mike Wallace was also lost to the Dolphins.
So, what have the Steelers got in this department? Well, Emmanuel Sanders, who was a nice slot receiver last year is going to have to step-up and improve his numbers for a start.
Although he did well in 2012 (44 catches for 626 yards), he will have more pressure on him this year and will be expected to produce more; it remains to be seen if he can handle that situation. Antonio Brown needs to improve again after his form rather levelled off in 2012. After those two, the Steelers receivers are a mixture of draft picks and veterans and it remains to be seen who of those make the full roster for the season. Offense is one area where the Steelers are looking a little light, unless Sanders or Brown really engage overdrive this year.
The offensive line gets a very new look and protecting Roethlisberger will be all important; two starters are gone from the "new look" – guard, Willie Colon, and tackle, Max Starks, and it will be three-time Pro Bowl center, Maurkice Pouncey, who anchors the line.
Marcus Gilbert and Mike Adams are being lined up as the tackles but there is still some doubt from NFL betting pundits over who will play left and who will play right. Guards, David DeCastro and Ramon Foster, complete the front five and it looks like the Steelers have a real belief in this line as a unit that could stay together for years – it certainly looks solid enough, providing a platform from which Roethlisberger has time and room to operate.
All in all, 'transition' is the right word to use about the Steelers offense – there are elements of stability there, Roethlisberger, for instance. However, much of the cast is new and it may take a while for it all to knit together.
This year, with an increased running game, we can see the Steelers getting back to their "ground and pound" style as the staple for whatever success may come their way, a return to their roots and some "blue-collar football".
Replacing Mike Wallace's Productivity
After going just 8-8 last season, the Pittsburgh Steelers lost key wide receiver Mike Wallace to free agency. He was the Steelers top receiving threat and a particularly strong deep threat as well as being the Steeler top ranked in fantasy football in 2012. As the team tries to get back into the playoff hunt, will Ben Roethlisberger have enough reliable targets to throw to?
With Wallace gone, the Steelers now have Antonio Brown and Emmanuel Sanders as their top two options. Jerricho Cotchery will more than likely slot in at the #3 option, with Plaxico Burress and Markus Wheaton likely battling for the #4 spot. While all five of those receivers are talented, no single player is going to be able to replace Wallace's productivity. Instead, it is going to take a collective effort to boost the passing attack.
At 5'10" and just 186 pounds, Brown does not have the size of most #1 receivers in the NFL. However, Todd Haley's offense calls for a lot of short passes, and that is one of the strong points for the quick receiver. His numbers were down last season, but with the high-ankle sprain behind him, he could be a solid target.
Sanders seems like the player most likely to breakout as a true Wallace replacement, and Roethlisberger was so found of him that he begged management to match his offer sheet from the Patriots. He is not a big play type of guy just yet, but he does have some impressive quickness to go with reliable hands.
Of course, for the Steelers to really have a solid passing game, they will need to have things balanced out by a decent running game. Last year, they were awful running the ball, but Le'Veon Bell has a chance to help turn around that part of the offense. His running threat can open up things for Roethlisberger when the game is on the line.
Wallace is a tough player to replace, but the Steelers feel as though they have enough depth to make up his production collectively. With a healthy Roethlisberger, the passing game should be just fine in 2013.
Is Mike Wallace Worth It?
Over the past 3 years, Mike Wallace has been one of the most productive receivers in the NFL. Now, Wallace wants to be paid like one. There is little doubt that the Steelers are a better team with Mike Wallace but at what cost? Do you jeopardize future signings such as Antonio Brown and Emmanuel Sanders? I don't think so.
Wallace has been rumored saying he wants to be paid like Larry Fitzgerald who signed a 8 year, 128.5 million dollar contract.
The Steelers won't pay Wallace, Larry Fitzgerald money. That would be a poor decision and that is not the way the Steelers do business. They won't overpay for a wide receiver (see Burress, Randle El, etc) and they never let a player (see Santonio Holmes) jeopardize the future of the franchise. And quite frankly, Wallace isn't worth Fitzgerald money. Wallace has elite speed but he's not close to being a Calvin Johnson, Andre Johnson or Larry Fitzgerald talent. They are in a class of their own. Wallace is in the next tier of wide receivers. He's still a 1 trick pony that disappeared towards the end of last year. He might not be the best overall wide receiver on the team. That title probably goes to the Antonio Brown.
With that being said, I want Wallace on the Steelers if the price is right. What's the right price? I think 5 years, 45 million seems about right. The contract will be back loaded and much less than that will be guaranteed. If Wallace doesn't agree to a contract similar to that, he won't be a Steeler after this season.
Steelers vs Falcons – Things to Look For
The Atlanta Falcons will face the Pittsburgh Steelers tonight at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh. This will be the Steelers third preseason game and you'll see the starters play the 1st half and the roster will begin to finalize for those on the "bubble".
Tonights game will be broadcasted by the NFL Network at 7:30 EDT. Also be sure to check out the Planet Steelers Forum and participate in our popular Game Day Chat during all games.
Here are a few players to pay special attention to during tonight's game:
Tony Hills – The tackle from the University of Texas in now a 4th year player and it's now or never for him. Hills came into training camp in great shape and has played inspired during practice and the last 2 preseason games. Hills can play tackle as displayed against the Philadelphia Eagles or guard. Hills has been so impressive that he appears to be the front runner for the RG position. Tonight, Hills is starting at RG.
Antonio Brown – What else can you say about the youngster? The guy has seized every opportunity in training camp and preseason. He is continuing right where he left off last year but now he may be in the process of wrestling the 3rd wide receiver spot from Emmanual Sanders. Sanders has been sidelined with a foot injury.
Cornerbacks – How will our cornerbacks Keenan Lewis, Crezdon Butler, William Gay, Donovan Warren, Bryant McFadden (questionable), and Cortez Allen (questionable) fair against the highly talented and explosive Atlanta Falcons offense.
Ramon Foster and Chris Scott – Will they allow Tony Hills to steal their spot at RG? At the start of training camp, it was Foster's job to lose. Apparently, he is starting to lose it.
Marcus Gilbert – The rookie LT from the University of Florida had a rough start to training camp reportedly showing up out of shape. He has turned things around recently and is getting his first start due to Jonathan Scott's injury (hyperextended knee). He will have a tough matchup against Atlanta's 4-time Pro Bowler, John Abraham.

October 1st, 2009, 12:02 PM #1Dropping PPC restrictions?
Ive been thinking of dropping all the PPC restrictions in my program. (I'm waiting till my head clears from the meds...)
I realize that Ill be paying commissions on things I would not have in the past, but it levels the playing field for the PPC affiliates who are following the current T&Cs. (and keeps me from having to try to monitor violations).
1) Would the non-PPC affiliate care?
2) Is there a downside to this? (other than overall higher commission payments)
Any ideas, thoughts?

are you bidding within your own program? if so you might want to still restrict ppc bidding to a set amount.
October 1st, 2009, 02:13 PM #3
the thought was to not bid against the affiliates (let them have a go at that segment 100%), this way I'm not competing with them and can focus on all the other things that need done. (like now I'm already working on Valentine's & the flu)

There is a risk that your affiliates may not pick up all your ad groups and you will leave money on the table.

I think you should exclude your domain or mis spellings of your domain or company name. That is no brainer for PPC.
Other than that, everything is fair gain.Eric Ewe

Eric, That defeats the purpose, if rules exist some people will break them, in the research into my main competitor I read that they found it much more effective for them to remove all restrictions. (not sure what they do now.. but this was when they were building the program)
I understand what you are saying, the company/domain name is an easy one for PPC, its also the one most often abused by some. Those problem affiliates cause the AM/Merchants to have to try to police/monitor the various ad programs. That policing takes time and money. In an industry like mine its most often going to happen at the peak times of year (the week before Valentines day is a good example), and during that short timeframe its impossible to search every possible place they could target. Shutting down just one bad ad (they were no longer active with the program/network and the ad was dead-ending at an SAS not active screen) took over 4 hours, not the best use of anyones time when theyve already been up for 20 hours for several days straight.
With Google allowing competitors (and their affiliates) to bid on my domain/companies name its only fair to open it up to the legitimate affiliates., and if there are no restrictions then those legitimate affiliates can place ads directly alongside the competitors & I can focus on the business as compared to the policing of that segment of the affiliate space.
.. so if everything is fair game.. no one can break the rules, more people get involved and everybody wins.

"Would the non-PPC affiliate care?"
Not gonna name any names lol but topic has been discussed and they don't like it. Personally I don't like it either.
Do I understand why you're considering it? Yeap
Does it mean I'd stop promoting your products? Nope.
I do care but as far as I know, you run your program affiliate friendly so I consider everything. That would be in the nope area, lol not thrilled bout area but overall lot more positives. So, even tho I wouldn't like it, I understand why you'd do it and will still promote your program.
Psssst I'm a big softie, tho. lol but then if for some reason I started gettin a whole lotta clicks that produced nothin......I'd start to wonder and then reserve the right to change my mind.

Hey Purplebear,
Let me try to get my flu fogged thoughts together on this....(so if its more disjointed than usual youll understand why...(I feel fine...just foggy))
A merchant that most affiliates view as seasonal (IE Valentine/Mothers Day easy sales) is always a big target for the smash and grab baddie PPC affiliates. The target window for those sales is the short time just before the holiday. Id rather have a group of PPC affiliates who have built solid PPC ads and campaigns than to try to battle it when the baddies show up.
I dont see external PPC campaigns as affecting initial sales from sites like yours, lets face it, if they know my company/domain name and they search for it, my site is going to show up first and thats not how they find your site. I do see it as a negative that if someone does a search on the domain/company name either after an initial click thru from a site such as yours or after the initial sale. To my knowledge SAS does not have the ability to do any type of split commissions on this type of event but Id be totally be in favor of it. It would also solve the issue revolving around coupon affiliates when the customer bounces out to search for coupons.
My thought was that PPC negative keywords and restrictions attract the baddies who want to do the smash and grab because they think they dont have any completion. Since the program would not have the restrictions there is no open playing field for the baddies to play in. The more valid PPC affiliates I have the more the playing field is leveled and diluted for the bad players in the market. Basically using the booze analogy, bootlegging dropped way off after prohibition ended, and if you can buy booze in any liquor store there is little use for bootleggers.
I do value affiliates input, and the same question was sent out using the SAS newsletter function. Right now Im just explaining the logic behind the request for input, and would rather not have to cut up the paying field, but dirty PPC affiliates are a fact of life in this medium.
Now Im going back to bed...

If you are not bidding and using your own display URL, only one affiliate will get to use that display URL. That kind of deters others from bidding as the landing page relevance makes the top spot a lower cost bid. You won't have hundreds or even dozens of PPC affiliates once that happens. If you are running your own PPC campaign that does not overwrite cookies, then the affiliate who sent the shopper to search for your domain gets the credit. You would not need to pay commissions on shoppers searching due to word of mouth referrals. Google only allows one PPC ad to use any display URL, if that ad is yours, then affiliates can successfully campaign for shoppers who don't know of your site already by bidding on keywords other than your domain, the keywords that will bring you new customers.
Before signing up with any merchant I search for their name and an affiliate PPC ad using their domain is a sure sign that it is not a well run program. Whoever I introduce to your products might easily remember the name - that's what promoting does - but if a search for your domain name has a PPC affiliate ad showing your domain, they are effectively collecting for my work, and charging you for shoppers sent by happy customers too. It is not very uncommon for shoppers to browse at work and then buy later from home via an uncookied browser. Your own ad takes advantage of those uncookied shoppers, so does DTM PPC with your display URL.
I know there are many opposing views, usually from those who have convinced merchants that it is a good thing that they are "protecting" them. But the cheapest display URL protection is for the merchant to run their own campaign targeting their brands.

I think what David referred to was a list of misconceptions that
originate from the movie. I am in favor of such a list, not for the
purpose of putting down scholars who make mistakes or, for that
matter, bashing Peter Jackson (I, personally, like the movies.
They're not perfect reproductions of the original, but I believe it's
impossible to make a movie that's 100% faithful to its source
material, so I tend to be forgiving as long as the movie is at least
80% faithful, and faithful where it counts.) but for the sake of
maintaining high standards in scholarly studies on JRRT.
Anyway, my own list of movie deviations from the source material, in
no particular order:
1. The characterization of Faramir. 'Nuff said.
2. Fatty Bolger and Tom Bombadil were lopped off.
3. It took Frodo a longer time before actually leaving the Shire.
4. The dialogue where Gandalf explains about Frodo being meant to
find the ring takes place in Bag End, not Moria.
5. The part about Saruman turning against Sauron was de-emphasized.
6. (For those who've watched the Extended Edition) Saruman did not
die during the confrontation with GAndalf at Isengard, after Helm's
7. Gandalf's labors during the siege of Helm's Deep were not shown.
8. Merry and Pippin were not needed to convince the Ents to go to war.
9. When Eowyn rides into battle, the reader -- or any of the other
characters in the story, for that matter -- doesn't know it's her.
And Theoden never finds out it's her all along.
10. Frodo and Sam did not quarrel in the Cirith Ungol part. Both of
them entered Shelob's cave together.
11. The beacons were lit while Gandalf and Pippin were on the way to
Minas Tirith, although in the book as well as in the movie, it was too
late just the same.
13. In the Weathertop, Aragorn actually encouraged the hobbits to
build a fire.
14. Aragorn had Anduril with him all along from the start; it was the
banner of Gondor, not Anduril, that Elrond and his companions brought
to him before he entered the paths of the dead.
I'm sure there are more.

Yes, you can take the train from the airport to the Sultanahmet area (or very close to it). For the 5pm-1am shift you could visit the Blue Mosque and go inside to admire the interior. Depending on how long you plan to stay inside the mosque, you might also be able to make your way over to Istiklal Caddesi where the street is more alive with shoppers and tourists in the evening than Sultanahmet.
For 6am-1pm day I think you'll have time to visit inside the Aya Sofya (9am-7pm, daily except Mondays. Get there early to avoid potentially long line. Before that you can just walk around the area.

is it worth leaving the airport and getting a visa and going through customs and everything to check out istanbul? i only have 8 hours...how much of an ordeal is it to leave the airport and come back in the same day for an international flight?
Report Abuse
I had two long lay-overs in Istanbul, and it was worth leaving the Airport. The line for the Visa was very short and moved quickly. (cost was $20) A friend and I had never been there and we managed to to do quite a few things considering it was late at night when we arrived. Its easy to find an english speaking taxi cab driver that will take you around the city. We went to a few bars there and they were really cool. They even had a Supper Club. I recommend exchanging currency at the airport there for Turkish Lira, especially if you walk around the main streets located right near the airport. Lots of cute shops.

also, if i take a cab from the airport to the city of istanbul, will it be pretty easy for me to return to the airport? or via the subway system?
thanks again!

I would look into getting a private guide, It may cost a bit but you will see more.
I had an 8 hour lay over in Amsterdam.
I booked a private guide, he was right there when I walked out of the airport.
He took me to all the major places and drove me back to the airport in time.
I had no worries

Percy, I'm on a very strict budget, so I don't think I can afford a guide, but thanks for the suggestion!

Justin Tuck played for Tom Coughlin for nine years. On Monday, the former Giants defensive lineman honored the now-former Giants head coach.
Tuck took to Instagram to write an eloquent tribute to Coughlin, who stepped down as Giants head coach on Monday afternoon after the team's third straight losing season.
Tuck had 60 1⁄2 career sacks with the Giants, who drafted the former Notre Dame end in Coughlin's second season with the team, and was a key part of the Giants' Super Bowl XLII and XLVII victories.
In the photo, Tuck is holding his son Jayce at the Giants' practice facility as Coughlin greets the two of them.
"As I sit back and reflect on Coach Tom Coughlin, I remember all the one on ones in your office talking football, game plan, etc.," wrote Tuck, who now plays for the Oakland Raiders. "I think back to when I was named captain and I used to try and beat you to the facility. I would get there at 6, you were there. I got there at 530 and you were there. 5 am . . . I knew I would beat you then . . . NOPE YOU WERE THERE. I remember feeling the hood of your car and it was cold. Come to find out there were nights you slept in the office. No one worked harder, no one demanded more and I LOVE YOU for it. I chose this picture for one reason and one reason only. Everyone knows you for your dedication to your team and how intense you are on the football field. But I will remember you for helping me become a man and challenging all of us to be better husbands and fathers and men. You did it the right way Coach. And you might be retiring from coaching but I'm sure this isn't a goodbye. That's not in your nature. #halloffame #5minutesearly #areyoush*ttingme"

If you feel like you are in a constant battle of wills with your child, here's how to cope!
You are at a friend's house for coffee and both your child and her's are having a good time playing together. You check your watch and realize it's time to go. When you announce this news to your child, he or she has a fit and adamantly refuses to leave, begging and pleading with you to stay longer. You give your child an extra five minutes, but when they're over, you're met with the same reaction.
Most of us have been in similar situations where we end up in a battle of wills with our own children, yet many of us haven't mastered the skill of handling these situations well. We want our children to be well-behaved and know right from wrong, but this is never easy to achieve, especially when a child is stubborn and everything you say is met with the same reply: No. There's no doubt that stubborn kids are difficult to reason with, and sometimes your patience wears out before theirs does, but there are effective ways to handle stubbornness, so that your home can be a peaceful haven for the whole family instead of a civil war zone!
Is it normal for my child to be so stubborn?
Stubbornness is perfectly normal in children. "Every child is stubborn up to a certain degree, because it's their nature to test their environment to try to see how far they can go.
However, children don't know their limits, and it's the job of the parents to set the limits for them," says Joanna Al Khayat, who holds a BA in child psychology from Boston University and is the former Head Teacher at a preschool in Boston, where she designed the curriculum and monitored the children's academic, physical, mental and social development.
Even very young children realize that they are separate individuals with their own ability to think and decide for themselves, as well as object to anything that doesn't appeal to them, explains Dr. Nadia Sherif, Professor of Educational Psychology and former dean of preschool teacher education at Cairo University. "It all begins when a child starts to explore his world and is very often told, 'No, don't do this,' or 'No don't touch that,'" says Dr. Sherif. "He begins to object, and tries to do what he wants, regardless of what his parents say. It is here that the disciplining role of the parents should begin, the sooner the better," she adds.
What's the solution?
Both experts agree that effective discipline is the best way to prevent and deal with stubbornness.
Rule number one in discipline is being consistent in your approach with your child, stresses Dr. Sherif. This means that you and your husband should agree beforehand on what your child is and is not allowed to do and what consequences you will enforce if your child oversteps the limits you have set. You should not say yes to something that your child does while your husband says no, or vice versa. Also, don't overlook something today and then punish your child for doing the exact same thing tomorrow.
Rule number two is to stay calm but firm when your child is being stubborn. If these rules are applied, your child should have a clear understanding of his limits.
Mrs. Al Khayat also suggests, "Introducing a daily routine into your children's lives will lessen the situations in which conflict arises and will help them know what is expected of them." It's a good idea to set meal times, bath time, bed time and other things you view as important." Mrs. Al Khayat adds, "You have to keep in mind that just like your kids are expected to unquestioningly follow a routine, you also should allow them space for their own decision making." Knowing that they can form an opinion and decide for themselves is an important part of the child's character development. Parents should decide what the negotiable and nonnegotiable issues are, advises Mrs. Al Khayat. For example, letting your child decide which cartoon he prefers to watch or which shirt he'd like to wear won't cause any harm and will satisfy his need for choosing for himself. However, if your child insists on doing something dangerous, like playing with a knife, or wants to do something unsuitable for you, such as visiting grandma when you have things to do at home, then you have the final word in decision-making.
How strict should I be?
Dr. Sherif advises, "Parents should neither be too lenient nor too overpowering. Either extreme will yield unpleasant results. If a child is always met with a constant 'no' without ever being given the opportunity to decide on anything, he or she may develop an inability to make a decision or form an opinion. Constant control from the parents undermines a child's character. On the other hand, if the child is seldom guided by his parents and always gets his way… the result will most probably be an uncontrollable child whose parents' words have no effect."
Mrs. Al Khayat has found through experience that the best way to handle a child who is insisting on something that you find inappropriate involves a three-step process. "First," she says, "calmly but firmly tell your child that his or her behavior has to end, and that you don't want it to be repeated because you don't accept it. Second, if the behavior doesn't stop, remind your child that you asked him to stop what he was doing before, and tell him that if he doesn't stop at once he will be punished." Last, Mrs. Al Khayat stresses that if the child carries on regardless of what you said, then you must put the punishment into action, even if it will upset him. "Children have to realize that you mean what you say, and that they cannot, under any circumstances, get away with any wrong doing," says Mrs. Al Khayat. Appropriate punishment is taking away a privilege the child enjoys, like watching television or going to the club. It is not appropriate to hit a child or call him names.
It's only natural that you and your child will get into a battle of wills sometimes. The key to dealing with children's stubbornness, according to these experts, is to stay calm, firm and consistent while setting limits for your kids.
