DVD-Audio Explained :
DVD-Audio is a format for delivering high-fidelity audio content on a Disc. It offers many channels FROM MONO to 5.1 surround sound in either Mono or Stereo at various sampling frequencies and sample rates. Compared to the CD format, the DVD format enables far higher audio quality. The format on this particular disc has nothing to do with reprocessing sound into stereo, pro logic nor has sound been remixed in any way. The sound on this disc is completely natural MONO and the sampling rate given is at its highest quality never before released which is not capable on the CD format.
Sampling rates on a CD today is now considered limited, where as on the DVD- Audio format it can be 16, 20 or 24 bit, with sampling rates of 44.1, 48, 88.2, 96, 176.4 or 192 kHz. Different sampling sizes and frequencies can be used on a single disc. Audio is stored on the disc in LPCM format which is UNCOMPRESSED or LOSSLESSLY COMPRESSED unlike the CD format.
The DVD-Audio player may downmix surround sound to two-channel stereo or mono if the listener does not have a surround sound setup. The downmix capability is limited to two-channels not to other configurations, such as 4.1. With this, it is still different to a normal CD except in that you are still getting a much higher sampling rate.
DVD-Audio discs commonly contain Dolby Digital of the audio (with lossy compression, usually downsampled to lower sampling sizes and frequencies) in the DVD-Video section. The downsampled sizes are still of higher quality than the CD format. This is done to ensure compatibility with DVD-Video players that do not include DVD-Audio.

Mitt Romney, former governor of Massachusetts and Republican presidential candidate, has spent most of his campaign focusing on United States domestic issues. That's probably normal given the lasting effects of the Great Recession.
But presidential hopefuls must position themselves in the foreign policy arena as well. Romney has spent little time on his foreign policy platform. In fact, his policy initiatives seem little different from those that incumbent President Barack Obama is following.
Having served only as a governor, Romney has no foreign policy experience. Plus, he has made only one real foreign policy speech, that at The Citadel in October 2011.
As such -- unfortunately -- Romney's own website gives the best idea of his foreign policies. Here's a brief look.
Main Areas Of Concern
Romney lists five major areas of U.S. foreign policy concern:
- Nations With Rising Ambitions: Romney and his team cite Russia and China as examples of those countries. His website maintains that those countries could "contribute significantly to the health of an international system built on economic and political freedom." He counters, though, that the "authoritarian character" of Russia and China causes them to "engage in behavior that undermines international security.
- Radical Islamic Jihadism: Romney describes it as a "multifaceted challenge" that "poses a direct terror threat to our homeland and to our allies.
- Struggle For The Greater Middle East: Romney says "it contains states too weak to police or protect themselves," plus it's the "world's primary flash point for nuclear proliferation." Of course, that means Iran, which is worrying the West with its pursuit of nuclear weapons. The region also includes Israel, which Romney famously accused Obama of "throwing under the bus" last May. Romney made the comment after Obama suggested Israel ultimately would have to accept a physical Palestinian state, perhaps based on pre-1967 Six-Day War borders. Israel -- and Romney -- maintain that such a plan would compromise Israel's security.
- Failed and Failing States: Romney describes them as breeding grounds for "terrorists, pirates, and other kinds of criminal networks." His chief examples of such states are Somalia, Yemen, Afghanistan, and Pakistan.
- Rogue Nations:Romney's list includes the usual suspects -- Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, and Cuba.
Romney's Guiding Principles
Romney builds his foreign policy platform on four "guiding principles." They are:
- Clarity and Resolve: Romney says U.S. allies and enemies "will not have doubts about where we stand and what we will do to safeguard our interests . . . ."
- Promote Shared U.S. Values: Romney wants to promote what he calls an "international system" conducive to "open markets, representative government, and respect for human rights.
- Use Both Hard and Soft Power: Romney says he will never take military force off the table in international conflict, but before he resorts to force he will "employ all the tools of statecraft to shape the outcome" of events.
- Show Leadership in Multilateral Organizations: Romney wants the United States to lead in multilateral entities, such as the United Nations, but he vows to reserve the right of American unilateral action.
Restoring The Foundation of U.S. Power
Romney says he will accomplish his foreign policy goals by restoring what he calls the "three foundations of American power: "strong values, a strong economy, and a strong military."
Romney fails to describe exactly what America's "strong values" are (except to reiterate his rhetoric about economic and political freedom, plus multilateral action), or how he would restore them.
Romney charges that Obama is creating a "hollow force" by cutting nearly $350 billion from American military budgets over the next decade. Romney claims he will set a defense spending floor of 4% of the gross domestic product; build 15 instead of nine naval ships per year (part of what he calls restoring U.S. "naval credibility;" modernize all other branches of the military; and build a "robust, multi-layered national ballistic-missile defense system to [protect] against nuclear attacks on our homeland and our allies."

Researchers analyze cancer in the movies
There are too few Hollywood endings when it comes to the depiction of cancer in movies, doctors say.
Last fall, Italian researchers analyzed 82 cancer-themed movies, including Cat on a Hot Tin Roof and Gran Torino. They found that rarer cancers are most often featured and that characters were more likely to die than real-life patients.
"Very often the ill person doesn't get over the disease, and his death is somehow useful to the plot's outcome," Dr. Luciano De Fiore said in a statement.
In the movies analyzed, 40 characters with cancer were women, and 35 were men, although more men develop cancer. Death occurred in 63 percent of the movies, but the American Cancer Society reports that the five-year survival rate for all cancers is 68 percent.
The researchers noted that common cancers, including breast cancer, are hardly represented, while relatively rare leukemia, lymphomas and brain tumors predominate.
Dr. Robert A. Clark, a Florida radiologist who conducted a similar film review published in 2001, said lung, breast and colon cancers are largely avoided in part because fictional patients are usually young and attractive.
He believes lung cancer is ignored because filmmakers are enamored with smoking, and as for breast cancer, "If you're in the film business, part of which is selling sex, it's hard to walk that line between breasts for titillation and breasts for disease."

Hints from Heloise:
Vinegar-water solution helps clean hairbrush To clean a hairbrush, grab a chopstick or pen and slide it between the bristles, pulling up to loosen the hair. Or use scissors to cut the hair, then pull it out. Use an old toothbrush to remove any remaining hair or lint around the bristles.
Get that hairbrush (not wood) clean by filling your sink with warm water and white vinegar (about a 50/50 mix). Use the toothbrush to scrub the bristles, and rinse the brush in tap water. Lay the brush bristles down to dry. Once your hairbrush is clean, use a sponge to wipe the sink, counter and faucet with the vinegar/water solution.

Mediterranean diet beats low-fat diet for health
A Mediterranean diet, even drenched in olive oil and studded with nuts, substantially beats a low-fat diet in preventing strokes and heart attacks in healthy older people at high risk of cardiovascular disease, according to research released last week.
This contradicts the notion that high-fat olive oil and tree nuts — walnuts, almonds and hazelnuts — are a no-no. Spanish researchers concluded that the consumption of extra-virgin olive oil and nuts "were probably responsible for most of the observed benefits" attained by those in the two study groups on a Mediterranean diet.
The findings were released by the New England Journal of Medicine.
A Mediterranean diet is rich in fatty fish, fruits, vegetables and fatty acids, and almost entirely without red meat. Although many studies have suggested its benefits, this trial is the first to meet the "gold standard" of biomedical research, with large numbers of people randomly assigned to distinct groups and followed for several years.

This is certainly simple! Simple, but delcious! Followed recipe exactly until the end, at which point, we added a little more butter and salt just before serving. It may not have been necessary, but my boyfriend is used to an Italian asparagus recipe, that includes pan-frying in lots of oil AND butter (yummy, but SO MUCH FAT!), and I want to slowly get him used to a healthier version. Next time, I'll try omitting the extra salt and butter. We steamed for a tad bit too long so the stems were slimy, but the tops were just delicious! That was purely our own fault, and not the fault of the recipe - I'm just including it here as a warning to other members - please be careful about cooking too long! It's really a great, simple, healthy recipe, and I think it deserves more attention. :-)
Great! My first time making steamed asparagus-- I had no idea how long to steam. This recipe really helped.
This was really good. My husband said this is his favorite way of preparing asparagus. Before I served this I sprinkled some lime juice over the spears for a little kick. Make sure to do this right before you plan on serving...otherwise the acidity from the lime makes the drippings turn red. Will use this often!!

A Torrid Love AffairBy
Well, it's done. The Yankees have signed Rafael Soriano for three years and $35 million dollars. Given that Cashman said he was not interested in giving up the first round pick, it came as a bit of a surprise. In retrospect, though, everyone should have expected this.
Two words: Scott Boras. Boras and the New York Yankees have a long history, tied together by big numbers made by superstar players. This isn't the first time Boras (with some help from the Yankees ownership) has managed to wiggle his grubby little hands deep into pinstriped pockets. As a matter of fact, it's happened over and over. It makes perfect sense that the team with enormous financial power spends a lot of time dealing with the agent known for record-breaking contracts. Two powerhouses with complementary results should go hand-in-hand, but most of the time, both sides can't win in a negotiation.
Exhibit A: In 1998, Bernie Williams was coming off a .328/.408/.544 season where he banged 21 homers and 100 RBIs. The offseason started off pretty bleak, though: George Steinbrenner had made it quite clear that his highest offer for the beloved center fielder was five years and $60M and not a dime more. Boras insisted that he had seven- and eight-year offers from mystery teams. There were plenty of people who thought this was a load of bull, but Boras held his ground, so the Yankees eyed Albert Belle instead. But Boras fought. He brought up meetings with both the Diamondbacks and the much-hated Boston Red Sox, who had were rumored to offer our dear Bernie seven years and $90M. When Belle signed with the Orioles, Boras pounced, and before anyone knew it, Williams was a Yankee to the tune of seven years and $87.5M, way above what Steinbrenner originally wanted to pay. In the end, the contract was a pretty good one: Belle suffered hip issues that knocked him out of baseball just two years later, and Bernie hit .298/.386/.480 and signed on for one last year in 2006.
Exhibit B: Alex Rodriguez. People could write books about the Rodriguez-Boras relationship, to say the least. In another example of shrewd Boras negotiating, Alex Rodriguez snapped himself up a 10-year, $252M contract from the Rangers. The franchise seemed to have forgotten they actually had to have that money to pay it, and began searching for trade options. In 2003, there was an attempt to trade Rodriguez to the Red Sox, but the complicated negotiation would have involved losing $30M. Interestingly enough, the trade fell through not because of Boras (who was fine with Rodriguez losing the cash), but the MLBPA, who felt that losing guaranteed contract money set a bad precedent. As per usual though, Red Sox loss was Yankee gain, and the Yankees acquired Rodriguez in February of 2004. But where Boras really showed off his skills was when Rodriguez opted out of the remaining three years and $72M of his contract in 2007 in favor of renegotiation. This decision, as I'm sure you all remember, was leaked during the 2007 World Series and I bet the New York Post had some really, really good front covers discussing the matter in their, ah, unique way. To calm the storm of New York rage, Rodriguez tried to soothe things by contacting the Yankees office directly, at the advice of Warren Buffet. As Rodriguez attempted to repair his public image (never his strong front) Boras took advantage of the fluctuations of the Yankees front office to secure the absolutely insanely absurd 10 year/$275M contract Rodriguez plays under today. He had a bigger hand in the incentives: each time Rodriguez passes a person on the all-time home run list, it's an additional $6M in his pocket. If Rodriguez becomes the all-time home run leader, his contract will exceed $300M, the first ever in professional sports. I'm sure I'm not the only one who grimaces and tries to ignore how much we're paying A-Rod in favor of the numbers he puts up, but Boras will be Boras. Truly the best worst contract ever.
I'm glad to say that the story for Johnny Damon is much shorter and sweeter. It was December 2005 and the Boston Red Sox refused to budge on their 3-year contract offer for their center fielder, the caveman-like Johnny Damon. Damon, who had already admitted that he doesn't want to be a Yankee, was looking for more than three years, and the Sox would not negotiate down from Boras' five-year plan. Boras even tried to get in contact with the Sox's owner, Larry Luchino, but to no avail, and soon enough, Damon was a Yankee to the tune of four years and $52M. He would go on to hit .285/.363/.458 in the pinstripes and looked significantly less like a yeti, both great things about his tenure in the Bronx. I'm pretty sure I'll always remember his 2009 double steal against the Phillies. The story has a sad note for everyone who loved Damon as a Yankee, though, and for once Boras' demand for cash came back to bite his client. Damon demanded no less than the $13M he was paid for any further deals, and the Yankees said no. When they refused to budge, Damon was forced to take a one year, $8M offer for the Tigers. He's a free agent now, so we'll have to see how that ends up.
The story continues. In 2008-09 offseason, the Yankees were coming off their first season without October baseball since the strike, and they were out for blood. What do you do when you're the New York Yankees and you want to win? You use your biggest advantage: in a mindboggling display of financial might, the Yankees signed Mark Teixeira, CC Sabathia, and AJ Burnett. Teixeira, another Boras client, picked up the record for highest paid first baseman with an eight year, $180M contract of his own. While Teixeira's 2009 numbers were strong (he lead the league in RBIs and home runs), his glacially slow start in 2010 contributed to a down season. Here's hoping that he'll be make himself close to worth the $22.5M he'll be getting in 2011.
Soriano is only another chapter in the long story between Boras and the Yankees. "Like Williams and Rodriguez, he secured himself an exorbitant amount of money; his numbers from the previous year were stellar enough to pretend to justify both the years and the cost, at least for the Yankees. think it's safe to say that Soriano and his three year, $35M contract won't be the last time these two powerhouses meet. Andrew Brackman, for example, is a Boras client, and I'm interested to see how he develops as a pitcher and what Boras can do for him. While Boras clients almost never completely live up to their contracts, there is no doubt many of his clients have been incredibly important and still quite valuable to the current Yankees and those of the recent past. Let's hope Soriano continues this trend.

The title sounds like the story Brokeback Mountain. I love it! The body proves that the Yankees can't quit Boras.
I'm not so sure about the accuracy of this story. Didn't Bernie personally called up George and pleaded with him that he wanted to remain a Yankee which enticed George to up his offer and sign Bernie.
Ugh. Scott Boras really looks like someone, but I can't place it.
kevin spacey? a little in that photo at least
not bad. actually, to me he's looking like a young larry bowa
As to accuracy, I'd start with the first sentence – fairly sure Soriano hasn't signed yet.
Don't be one of those guys who's like:
"Noooooooo, he's not signed until he passes his physical!!!!!!"
Nobody ever fails the physical unless they're Albert Haynesworth
Here's to hoping he sneezes or somethin and fails his physical. Gosh I hate this deal
Awesome post. I was thinking about this the other day, that the Yankees have (yet) to get one of those truly brutal Boras contracts*. Even if Soriano is only good for a year or two, I don't think he'll even qualify with the Dreiforts of the world. The Yankees have yet to overpay for a guy who didn't produce, like many of Boras' clients have after the big contracts.
*A-Rod's contract is obviously a disaster, but as of now, he's at least still producing on the field, just not up to a $30 million/year level.
You have to hand it to Boras. No matter how awful a person he seems to be, and how much people talk about that, he still gets his job done. If teams are willing to not only negotiate with him, but constantly acquiesce to his demands, he's gotta be recognized as the premier sports agent (and probable douche bag) in the world. I do, however, pray for his eventual downfall.
What has he ever done that makes him seem like an awful person? I mean, he does his job. He gets the most money for his clients and for himself and his business. He doesn't do anything illegal or immoral as far as I know. People associate him with the greed of the business, which is fair, but I don't see how you can call him an awful person.
You're absolutely right about that. I was basing it on the bullying and greedy negotiating tactics he is known for. He could be the best guy ever away from work. We do tend to make people heroes and villains based on their public personas though. Can you really picture him going home, shaking hands and kissing babies? Not before signing a deal with the baby. 4 kisses with an opt out clause after the second and third kisses?
aside from the recently reported immoral and arguably predatory loans to south american teenagers you mean?
He was investigated and it was proven he didn't break any rules. Look it up, he wasn't even fined.
And, though obviously he isn't alone in this, being the epitome of ostentatious wealth and over valuing of entertainment in our culture.
I don't know the man but people like Boras clearly have a hand in a culture run amok. I'm positive I would be unable to make my living by haveing to argue with a straight face over 15 more million dollars. It is what it is, but he is anohter sign of a society which is rapidly stratifying along uncrossable generational wealth lines.
So I'm not gonna be nominating him for good guy of the year awards
hey listen, the question was "what has he done that is immoral" he then went on to say "he gets themost money for his clients, himself, and his business."
Well there are quite a few people who think that "getting the most money for his clients, himself, and his businees" regardless of tactics or circumstances is in fact immoral.
There is a finiet amount of $$ available at any one moment in time. A person's whose driving force is to amass as much of that as possible for himself and his client (through often outrageous distortions of fact i.e Arod adds a billion dollars to the teams value) is being immoral. DIstortions of any truth for personal monetary gain is, for many people, immoral period.
SO we can disagree about whether thats so but it can't be glossed over. There is a serous argument to be made about the morality of making as much cash as you can damn the consequences and the lies you need to tell to get it.
Boras is a mad genius. He must know mind control or something.
Nah, he just mind-fucks teams really hard
Trivia: Guess what movie that term (mind fuck) is from??
It's been used in several movies, actually.
Get Him to the Greek, most recently. At least that I've seen.
Awesome post! Definitely love your writing style! It really compliments that of Mike Joe and Ben nicely! Strong topic too. Boras and the Yanks have always operated in their own realm, with or without the market.
Keep up the good work!

I recently received a package from Metadot, the creators of Das Keyboard. It contained:
Here's what the enclosed note says:
The day before, I'd received another package from them, containing a brand new Das Keyboard.
From the "We're sorry we messed up!" you might suspect that there's a less positive back story leading up to the seemingly happy ending, and you'd be correct. But I told the ending first for one simple reason: what Metadot did at the end made up for everything that came before, in a way that most companies nowadays just don't seem to understand. Yes, they made a mistake (quite a few of them, actually), but they acknowledged and apologized for it, they didn't make excuses, they fixed it, and they went the extra mile to show they were sorry.
Here's the whole, long story… (more…)

Campaigners Make an Impact in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire
Farndale's Defenders: John Capron, Matthew Clark and Robin Turton
In 1967, the Water Resources Board announced plans which had the potential to change Farndale forever. Farndale, famed for the wild daffodils that grow in its valley, was to be flooded to create a reservoir designed to provide water to the people of Hull and Sheffield. The reservoir was to be 2½ miles long, cover a total of 400 acres and hold 8,000 million gallons of water, submerging a total of twenty farm holdings and four farm houses. Although the most popular of the daffodil walks was to survive, one third of the 2,000 acres daffodil reserve was going to be destroyed.
But largely through the combined efforts of two local men, John Capron, a retired solicitor from Gillamoor and Matthew Clark, a farmer of Cropton, and the then MP for Thirsk and Malton, Robin Turton [later Baron Tranmire], the reservoir never came into existence. They argued that there were better methods of providing the much needed water through the use of boreholes and river abstraction. They wrote letters to newspapers, organised a petition which received nearly 11,000 signatures and sent volunteers out during daffodil season to hand out 16,000 Save Farndale stickers. They even produced a Save Farndale Christmas card.
The campaigners formed the Farndale Defence Committee with representatives from the Council for the Protection of Rural England, the Youth Hostels Association and the Ramblers Association.
Following the rejection of the proposed bill by Parliament, and later by a select committee of the House of Commons, the Yorkshire Ouse and Hull River Authority announced, on 29 June 1971, that it was postponing the Farndale reservoir scheme, and the scheme was formally laid to rest in 1988.
Without the efforts of the three Farndale defenders, Farndale could have been a very different place.

Chained CPI Cuts Social Security Benefits while Raising Taxes on Lower- and Middle-Income Workers
WASHINGTON - December 13 - A leading deficit reduction proposal is to "tweak" the official inflation measure used to annually adjust Social Security benefits, other government programs, and income tax brackets.
Proponents of this proposal argue that a relatively new inflation measure, the Chained CPI, is more accurate than the current index and the decrease in benefits to the programs affected would be balanced by increased tax revenue from the wealthy. A new issue brief from the Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR) examines these issues and finds the opposite to be true.
The issue brief, "The Chained CPI: A Painful Cut in Social Security Benefits and a Stealth Tax Hike," points out that switching to the Chained CPI would result in cuts to already modest Social Security benefits. As well, the Chained CPI is likely not an accurate measure of the inflation rate seen by seniors. Finally, the brief shows that the Chained CPI would result in a proportionately larger increase in income taxes for lower- and middle-income Americans than for those in the top tax brackets.
As a measure of inflation, the Chained CPI has shown a rate of inflation 0.3 percentage points lower than the current index used to calculate Social Security annual cost-of-living adjustments. This slower rate would add up over time: 10 years after switching to the Chained CPI, Social Security benefits would be 3 percent less; after 20 years there would be a 6 percent cut; and after 30 years the cut would be 9 percent. The change to the Chained CPI would also cut benefits for veterans, low-income children, people with disabilities and many others who rely on government programs.
Since seniors' expenses differ from those of the general population, the Chained CPI is not a more accurate measure of inflation for retirees, as is often claimed by proponents of switching indexes. An experimental elderly index constructed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics tracks seniors' actual costs and shows a more rapid rate of inflation than the currently-used index. A main factor is that seniors spend significantly more on housing and medical care, whose costs are rising faster than those of other goods and services.
"The Bureau of Labor Statistics' experimental elderly index more accurately tracks the consumption patterns of the elderly, and it shows that inflation for seniors is actually higher, not lower, than the current measure," said Nicole Woo, Director of Domestic Policy at CEPR. "If accuracy is indeed a concern, the BLS could construct a full elderly index for annual Social Security cost-of-living adjustments."
The argument that a reduction in benefits would be offset by an increase in tax revenue from high-income earners also falls short. Switching to the Chained CPI to adjust annual income tax brackets would lead to incomes jumping to higher brackets faster, or in other words, tax increases. Congress' non-partisan Joint Committee on Taxation showed that if income taxes were indexed to the Chained CPI starting in January of 2013, by 2021, 69 percent of the gains in revenue would come from taxpayers with incomes below $100,000. Those taxpayers with incomes between $10,000 and $20,000 would see an increased tax burden of 14.5 percent while those with incomes over $1,000,000 would only see their taxes go up by 0.1 percent.

A Boys and Girls High School gym teacher was fined $1,500 for inappropriate comments, but was not reprimanded for allegations that he flirted with his female students, according to the Daily News.
Last year, an investigation was launched after accusations were made that teacher Stanley Feldman (a 30-year public school veteran who the News says makes "a little over $100,000" yearly), told female students that they looked "sexy," inviting them to his house after their 18th birthday, and showing them a dirty cartoon on his cell phone, the report says.
A state arbitrator ruled that the students were not credible witnesses, but fined Feldman $1,500 for using language "to belittle students," according to the News (Feldman is appealing the fine in state Supreme Court).
The Boys and Girls High School is the oldest high school in Brooklyn, after bad progress reports. In May, , which will guarantee $6 million each year for three years under a "Restart Model" which includes many caveats that the school must abide by to keep the funding.

Quick Note –
As President Obama heads to the Key Bridge to continue his campaign for Stimulus 2.0, the Washington Post has a must read story highlighting how the government couldn't manage the first one. President Obama heavily touted infrastructure spending in his original $800 billion stimulus package, with Washington D.C. receiving nearly 10 times more grants and contracts than the national average. It's hard to take the President's latest push seriously when the first stimulus didn't get the job done.
• Washington DC Received Nearly 10 Times The National Average Of Stimulus Funding Per Capita. As struggling communities throughout the country wait for more help from the $787 billion stimulus package, one region is already basking in its largess: the government-contractor nexus that is metropolitan Washington. ... Of the stimulus grants and contracts awarded so far, the District has received nearly 10 times as much per capita as the national average, and Maryland has received more per capita than much harder-hit states, among them Florida, Michigan, Nevada and Ohio. (The Washington Post, 12/3/09)

I haven't researched this personally, but I have heard it all over the media. Going back to 1932, whenever an incumbent president has run for re-election, their fate was tied in to the Washington Redskins. When the Redskins win the incumbent has won. When the Redskins lose the incumbent loses. Today at 1 PM - Green Bay at Washington. Go Pack!!! (and it will be doubly sweet for this Giant fan who loves to see the Skins lose)

The 2011 college and pro football season in our state was OK.
It was pretty good, but it was a mixed bag.
There was some unfinished business for each of the major college programs in the state, and the same could be said of the Atlanta Falcons. That should change this season.
Georgia, Georgia Tech and Georgia Southern all appear to be set for big seasons coming up this fall.
The Bulldogs have a physical, hard-hitting, fast defense. Whatever adjective you want to apply to that unit is appropriate, and Todd Granthams group certainly is fun to watch. Georgia also has a talented quarterback in Aaron Murray, and usually that is a good combination to have.
Georgia won the SEC East Division last year even though it lost to South Carolina, and that scenario very well could play out again this season. Theres no reason to think the Bulldogs wont be right back in the hunt for the division crown.
Georgia Tech stumbled last year in the ACC, but the Yellow Jackets should be ready for a bounce-back season. In Georgia Techs run-first offense, the line is always a key, and the Yellow Jackets group up front this year is talented and experienced. That typically leads to good things for Georgia Tech and its option offense.
The Yellow Jackets get an early test against Virginia Tech on Labor Day, and the team that wins that game typically has gone on to win the Coastal Division championship.
Georgia Southern is once again an FCS power, and that has come quickly under head coach Jeff Monken. The Eagles wont have Jaybo Shaw running their version of the option any more, and that loss certainly will hurt, but there is plenty of talent coming back for the Eagles.
Theres enough talent, in fact, that Georgia Southern was picked to win the Southern Conference. And it would be an upset if the Eagles dont bring home that title.
A lot of fans are going to be upset if the Falcons dont bring home an NFL playoff win pretty soon. Atlanta has had steady success under head coach Mike Smith and quarterback Matt Ryan, but the Falcons dont have a win in the playoffs to show for that.
Thats the next logical step for Atlanta to take. The Falcons have to start winning in the postseason if theyre going to move up the NFL ladder, but with Ryan at the helm, thats a real possibility this year.
In fact, theres a strong chance all four teams will take home some kind of championship hardware this season.

U.S. Supreme Court
Supreme Court to Decide Teen's Right to Miranda Warning During School Questioning
Posted Nov 1, 2010 10:18 AM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to decide whether a 13-year-old special education student questioned by a police officer at middle school had the right to a Miranda warning.
The case is the second this term involving the rights of youths facing police questioning, SCOTUSblog reports. The case accepted today is J.D. B. v. North Carolina.
J.D.B. confessed to burglarizing homes after a police investigator told him that a stolen digital camera he brought to school had been found. The North Carolina Supreme Court ruled (PDF posted by SCOTUSblog) that the teen was not in custody when he was questioned, so a Miranda warning was not required. The court also said age and academic standing should not be considered when deciding the custody question.
Last month, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to decide whether police and social workers must get a warrant before interviewing children at school about suspected sexual abuse by family members.

Peanut Butter Caramel Dipped Apples
We went apple picking. I say that like it's a confessional because everytime I go apple picking, I feel like a spoiled glutton. Me and the kids, walking treelined aisles. Picking plump little apples from weighted boughs. Stealing taste after taste of their crisp-crunchy fruit.
If that sort of saintly activity makes me feel like a glutton, imagine dipping those pure, perfect fruits into a warm pot of peanut butter caramel. It's enough to make a girl feel downright naughty.
But, oh. Sometimes naughty is so nice.
Peanut Butter Caramel Apples
Like dipping apples in caramel and peanut butter? Here's a sweet way to get your apple dipping fix in one bite. This smooth, creamy peanut butter caramel is a nice change from plain old caramel. It's about a thousand times more delicious than caramel apples made from those plastic squares, too.
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup karo syrup
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
pinch of salt
In a medium pot, bring butter, sugar, karo syrup, and heavy cream together until smooth and melty. Stir in peanut butter, then keep stirring over medium-heat. Bring to a boil and allow to boil for 3-5 minutes (or, if you want to be technical, until the mixture reaches the soft ball stage). Remove from heat, allow the caramel to cool slightly, then dip skewered apples right on in it.

And, aren't you just lurrrving those red & green caramel apple sticks? They are actually hard plastic straws, purchased in the hula-party section of my local Hobby Lobby. So fun!

Jersey Shore meatball, Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi is pregnant. At least, according to new online reports. The tanned guidette may be expecting her first baby with boyfriend, Jionni LaVelle, later this year.
Could this be true? If Snooki is pregnant, what's to become of Jersey Shore? Okay, so Polizzi hasn't officially revealed the rumored baby news; however, there are signs pointing to a Guido baby being born in the future.
"She's been telling people that she has a big announcement coming," revealed one source. While Snooki's recently made headlines for her super slim down, she may be gaining that weight back if she's pregnant.
"She is pregnant and has only told her closest friends and some family," another insider said. So is Snooks dropping hints about her delicate condition? "I feel sick," she said in a recent Facebook post, and then later tweeted: "Late night craving...yogurt hits the fricken spot!"
Hopefully, if Snooki is pregnant, she grows up, and fast! The days of late night partying, and running around like a spoiled little kid are over. However, this is likely a big rumor, which will probably be debunked in time. At least, fans are hoping there won't be a Jersey Shore baby just yet!

Rexrode has the story: Still dealing with the recent loss of his mother, Dwaun Anderson has decided to postpone his enrollment as MSU. There's no definitive word yet on when or if Dwaun will join the MSU basketball team. Obviously, everyone in the MSU family is supporting him and giving him time to deal with these important issues in Dwaun's own time. Please bare the sensitivity of this in mind with any of your comments - Josh.
I'm counting intrpdtrvlr's FanPost as the "Welcome,..." post for Dwaun Anderson since he, you know, actually knows what he's talking about. I have updated the projected roster, though. (It permanently resides on the left sidebar.) Two scholarship slots remain for 2011. Getting a true point guard to fill one of them seems like a priority. Patrick Lucas-Perry? Jeremiah Davis?
