The first Tuesday of the regular season brings many questions. After the euphoria of Geno Atkins' extension om Monday, we now begin to focus on how long the Bengals could be missing left tackle Andrew Whitworth.
First reported by Pro Football Talk, the Bengals will bring back offensive tackle Dennis Roland, who was released in the final round of cuts on Saturday. Linebacker Thomas Howard is visiting and there are expected to be some tryouts with the team only having five linebackers.
Teams across the league can also start putting players on injured reserve/recall starting at 4 p.m. With a few positions up in the air, there are a variety of scenarios that can play out.
The conventional wisdom remains that Andrew Hawkins will get the designated to return tag, but I still think there's an outside shot that it might be Whitworth. During the past couple weeks, Whitworth has fielded all questions about his left knee but he has sounded less confident about being available for the opener if not longer.
Said Whitworth on Monday: "I have to continue to progress the way I have. It's weird, I haven't played in a game but I've been out here every day, even the days they've had days off. I'm just trying to keep my head down and keep working."
I also can't see the Bengals going into Soldier Field with just five linebackers. They could still make a move at defensive back to go down to nine and then add one that way. Many have asked if Taylor Mays could play linebacker, but each time Mike Zimmer has been asked about that, he's said no.
The first sign that we are truly in regular-season mode came on Monday when the temporary lockers in the locker room are gone and the newcomers got to settle into their permanent lockers after making the roster. Another comes tonight with the final episode of "Hard Knocks: Training Camp".
It will be a little strange on Wednesday not seeing the multitude of NFL Films camera people, sound technicians and other support staff around Paul Brown Stadium. After the third day of training camp they blend into the normal workings of things around the team which is why it might take a couple days to get used to not having as many people around.
If the Bengals do get off to a good start though, expect the locker room to get full again with various national publications coming in for stories.
Before packing up, NFL Films Senior Producer and Director Rob Gehring sat down for a couple minutes to talk about this year's show and some of the things that happened along the way.
How did this year's show go? "Smooth. I think just having everyone who has done it before. Everyone in this room had worked on it before and done the drill. The guys who were here for the six weeks had done it. Honestly having this big room helped a lot. When we were with Miami it was three separate trailers if I had to tell my sound guy who I was wiring I'd have to go find them. Been much more efficient. The team has been great. The coaches who were here and been through it before that really helps. He knows and understands what we were trying to accomplish. He's not worried because he trusts us. There's good leadership. The players they had is as good a veteran group as I've seen."
Four years ago when the Bengals were on it the first time you guys actually shot film and it had to be shipped to NFL Films headquarters in New Jersey. Now you shoot digitally and it can quickly get there … "We had a 1 GB internet connection. We shot Geno (Atkins) signing his contract. It probably wouldn't have made the show four years ago because we wouldn't have been able to get it back there that quick. It would have arrived via courier late (Monday) and by then the show was in the can."
Will this year's show convince other teams to do it? "I think it's a matter of the makeup of the team. The thing we were up against this year was a lot of the teams that were of interest were the ones that were rebuilding and have rookie head coaches. I know we did one last year but that's a tough thing to ask a rookie head coach. This team was always in the forefront of our mind but you kind of kept ignoring them as an option because we had been here four years ago. We finally got to the point where we were like its stupid to discount them because we just did them. They've got 80 percent roster turnover, rising stars at key positions and they're going to be in the hunt. This is a good team, they added real good pieces in the draft. We can't keep saying they're not the top of the list because we did them."
James Harrison was outspoken about being on the show … "Honestly James was fine. He was tough to get access too but we got what we needed. I think fans got to see exactly who James Harrison is. He's a guy who has no interest in being on television except if he's playing a football game. When he was there at 6 a.m. that's who he is. He lifts weights and plays football. I'm glad we got to get some stuff from him off the field because I think it was important for fans to see that he isn't some mean SOB who wants to hit people. He takes care of his body and physically does the things he needs to do. Sometimes we discount that as the expectation of a professional athlete because we think they should be doing those things but it's hard when you're working when you are working 14-hour days and then have to go home and take care of your body. I thought that was pretty special."
Your feelings now that it is over? "It's tough because you get to know these guys a little bit and as you're going we don't have any idea who is going to make the team at first but as you go along you start to get a feel for whose getting more first-team reps and that kind of stuff. You kind of know whose on the bubble and you worry about those guys. Those two days are the hardest of the whole shoot.
"You put so much into it. We've been together for almost two months, 14-15 hours a day, You're just entrenched in it. I've got my head down for so long that when you do come up for air it's like we got through it. There's a lot of people who had fun on the process and at the end it hits you at once. Wow, we did something good. I haven't felt this good about anything I've done professionally in awhile."
Now that Geno Atkins and the Bengals have agreed to a 5-year extension, Atkins is ready to 'play football and help the team go to a Super Bowl
Players react to the Atkins extension
Rex Burkhead has made the roster, now he has higher expectations
If it's Tuesday, it's time for the weekly Scribe Session Podcast with Paul Dehner Jr. and I. This week there are some cameos from Andrew Whitworth, Leon Hall, Jay Gruden and Johnny Gill.
The Bengals are ranked ninth in the latest ESPN Power Rankings.
Chicago Tribune: Brandon Marshall is back at practice and is ready to go.
Sun Times: General Manager Phil Emery is building through the draft.
Steelers: Isaac Redman practiced as if he is the starting running back. Now he's just waiting to hear that he is.
Ravens: Repeating as Super Bowl champions is no easy task.
Browns: Cleveland is without a kicker and has the second-youngest roster in the league.
It just wouldn't be a Walkthrough without an '80s video. If Geno Atkins is singing this today, he has every right:

This morning bright and early (earlier than normal, and normal seems to be 815am at the gym) we went to the gym and worked out. I got in a good workout with the many pulleys and cables and weights machine! Even sweated! And since we had agreed before going to the gym, we left from the gym and got on the interstate to head down to Missouri. Gas was $3.46 a gallon this morning! Yeah I know, below the estimate from last month! But have yet to get the van filled (still have even after the trip about 1/2 a tank left) as we may go to Des Moines Friday (wife hinted ALDI, wally world and how about lunch honey) and maybe it will be cheaper there. I will see!
So we get to our destination in Missouri, get our cigarettes and cigars. I fill up my coffee mug, wife gets a pepsi, plus a jar of black raspberry preserves (I saw that and it looked good to me and the wife said it looks like it is nothing but black raspberry) that I will enjoy sometime tomorrow with a bagel or two.
Then headed back home. I debated as to whether to ask the wife should we stop and go to Fareway. Simply because I wanted to buy more blueberry brats! Then good sense hit me and I kept my mouth shut and thus did not get my blueberry brats. See, the sense that hit me was this: wife would have said sure, I need a few items. But first honey lets stop at wal mart, then go to this shop, and then Fareway and on the way home (take the back road since it is shorter) let's stop at the thrift store to see what they have. And bam! I would have been in Osceola for about 3 hours or more (because another stop she would have come up with is this restaurant there she likes). Just not worth it at the time for some blueberry brats! Dammit!
Got home and had a letter from the medical clinic we go to. Yep, had to call them and set up an appointment for next week for a colonoscopy. Geesh! Just when I thought my wife and the doctor had forgotten about that. So they will mail out instructions as to what to do the previous day (like I know one thing and that is stop the food and only liquids from then on), the time for me to be there, and whatever else they feel I need to allay my nerves (or colon).
So that meant a call to the dentist to change the appointment I had for next week to some other time.
And a call to our vet. Get a time to bring our dog Coco in to get her nails clipped (aint never again going to clip her nails myself) which will be tomorrow morning at 11am. Thus now I know what I will do tomorrow. Unless wife decides to come along (she does not see the sense of going to the vet with me and our dog), I can then go to Fareway after the appointment and get me some blueberry brats! And no, will not say a thing to my wife and maybe she will not think about coming.
91F today! That is the first 90 or above day for us here in our part of Iowa for 2012! Geesh. Tonight dropping down to 50 or so and tomorrow a high about about 65. Then the next day? High predicted of 50. Somewhere in there we may get some rain. Yes, I want rain for the simple fact that if no rain, wife will expect me to get the hose out and water all the plants! Yesterday, she planted all the tomato plants (7 of them). Yes, we will get more she said! Plus more silvermound to fill in some spots in the garden (thinking that since she said so, the garden will be nothing but silvermound by next year).
Have you ever bought a brand new cars only to forget where you put it? How about 300 of them? Probably not – unless you're Miami-Dade County, which was recently reunited with 298 vehicles it bought brand new between 2006 and 2007.
The county "discovered" this fleet of no-mileage vehicles after reading about them in a Spanish-language newspaper there (see the source for more images). Most of the misplaced motorcade is made up of Toyota Prius hybrids whose warranties either expired with very few miles on the odo or will very soon.

Coventry City's Hairy Heros
With the month on 'Movember' here it seems like it is time to take a look at the hairiest yet one of the most successful teams Coventry City teams we have produced. In the 1977-78 season we finished 7th just missing out on a place in Europe.
In the seventies where facial hair was a trend, Coventry City took it to another level that even out 'mo ed' the mighty Liverpool of McDermott and Souness. Coventry City could have fielded a team that wouldn't have looked out of place in a spaghetti western.
In goal was Jim Blyth owner of a reasonable 'mo' at fullback was Harry Roberts, Graham Oakey and Bobby MacDonald who all owned one. At centre half was Jim Holton and his legendary moustache alongside Alan Dugdale who sported a 'Merv Hughes' style mo.
In midfield there were more legends with Tommy Hutchinson, Barry Powell and Terry Yorath who was signed from Leeds as a player rather than for his handle bar moustache. Don Nardiello moved up to the first from the reserves and seemed obliged to grow one to fit in.
Up front they went for even more facial hair with Mick Ferguson and Alan Green supporting beards.
Even some of the emerging players joined in such as Andy Blair and Paul Dyson.
Some players did manage to resist the lure of the mo such as Ian Wallace, Mick Coop, Keith Osgood and Garry Thompson. John Beck always seemed to be trying to grow a beard but not quite succeeding.
If we could add two or three of the 'hairy' bunch to the current squad then a return to the Championship would certainly be on the cards.

Teaching Entrepreneurial Journalism
Thinking about j-school? This video is a good example of what the more progressive programs are beginning to teach.
Here, CUNY Professor CW Anderson tells us about his Entrepreneurial Journalism course, where his students study new (and theoretical) business models, meet industry people, and then pitch then their own "journalism business." The first class was a mixed bunch, he told us, just like any handful of people would be — some were excited by the challenge, others found it off-putting. But almost all of them, he said, had to grapple with the realization that getting a job at a daily might not be the best out-of-college move anymore.
For more from Chris, see these FJP videos and look for his book, Networking the News: The Struggle to Rebuild Metropolitan Journalism, 1997-2011 later this year from Temple University Press.

Reviews of Waterberg Wilderness Lodge
They do not necessarily represent the views of Expert Africa.
Location, lodge beautiful - but oppressive!
The plateau, the actual lodge and its facilities and surroundings were lovely but I found the atmosphere there oppressive, controlled, cold and uncomfortable, so much so that I spent most of my second day there at the restcamp in the park down the road.
I was given an itemised sheet of things in my room to check, tick off and sign and have counter-signed as soon as I arrived, which I thought was appauling and insulting. It was a horrible welcome, even more so when you have just driven 6 hours!
The staff wore name tabs with their last names first, which seemed so impersonal but I thought it was clear that many of the staff were slightly fearful, seemed very controlled and unhappy. I would even go so far as to say that the environment was oppressive. It gave me a real sense of what it might be like to live in an apartheid society. It was horrible.
It wasn't that the staff were not good or friendly, just that they seemed to be so controlled and were therefore so submissive and unalive. I hated it. The uniforms felt like bootcamp, prison outfits.
It is such a shame because I could see the care that has gone into creating the physical environment of the lodge and rooms and how hard the owners have worked to do this. The room was lovely, food good (particularly as they catered specifically one night for me in cooking me fish when everyone elde had red meat, which I really appreciated) but I think they strip away all that is good by the atmosphere that has been created there., which I believe does not come from the staff but the owners and managers. Horrible.
Interestingly, the only time I saw one of the owners was when I settled up in reception on leaving, even then I was given no introduction. I knew the lady was the owner because I recognsied her from the brochure. It was so disappointing to have this exp the last two days before returning home. It will not of course taint my overall experience of Namibia but gave me a very uncomfortable eye-opener into how the culture and treatment of blacks and whites clearly can be in this country.
Sadly I would not feel able to recommend that anyone stay in this lodge. I was only at the restcamp/park down the road for some hours but the welcome and ambience there was so different it felt like a breath of fresh air. Such a shame.
Waterberg Wilderness Lodge review
A welcome oasis after the aridity of most of the country . Opportunity for unaccompanied walks welcome.
We would have like two nights here (in exchange for one less at Anderssons) to take advantage of the tours., one of which appeared to involve a visit to local nursery/orphanage.
Again experience was Very Good
Waterberg Wilderness Lodge review
The lodge was an ideal place for our first two nights of this trip to Namibia and being halfway to Etosha is in easy reach of Windhoek. We particuarly enjoyed the walk onto the plateauRead more about the whole trip
Wandering around Waterberg Wilderness Lodge
It was an easy drive to Waterberg from Ongava, and we arrived at lunchtime, or what we thought might be lunchtime. We asked at reception (which is 2km from the lodge itself) if we could get lunch and they said yes, but when we rolled up at our room at 1.30 we were told the chef was at lunch and no food was available!
The room was very basic, but clean and tidy but frustratingly had cups, tea and coffee but no kettle. This was not a good start after no lunch, and no availability of hot water because, yes, the chef was at lunch.
Afternoon tea (and cake) helped, and we then went out of a sundowner drive which turned into a great experience: We saw more giraffe and antelope, but then came across two White Rhino. We were encouraged out of the van, and walked to within ten yards of these huge animals. When they started to approach us, we slowly moved back to the van and watched them from there - a mere few yards away, and completely lovely! They posed beautifully!
Dinner that night was around one large table and most guests were german; warmth was provided by a nice big log fire. The next morning, after breakfast, we were guided on a four hour walk up to the plateau top, which was great fun, and had amazing views. We ralaxed that afternoon by the (freezing cold) swimming pool, and watched the wonderful, colourful, local birds.
Our second dinner was not great and the food in this lodge was the poorest we had throughout the holiday. The last evening was also spoilt a little by the staff making an early retreat, and leaving us to drink up in the dark (with only an honesty bar and the fire embers to keep us warm). The only time we saw the hosts was when Mr Rust greeted us back from the afternoon drive, and when his wife did the check-out at reception when we left.
A bit of a mixed bag - beautiful location, great activities, okay rooms but poor service generally.
Waterberg Wilderness Lodge review
Oh the joy of driving most of the way to Waterberg along paved roads! Waterberg is wonderful and so different to the other lodges we had stayed in. It is set in a green, well watered valley running into the mountains - and the game drives, which we were not able to take, offered animals not seen in the desert - e.g rhinos, zebras and giraffes.
The lodge caters mainly for German visitors - and that was the language mostly spoken but it was friendly with good food and some excellent walks through green, dappled meadows full of Springbok. We could have stayed longer.
P.S During our stay they also cleaned out our car, inside and out without being asked. It sparkled!
Waterberg Wilderness Lodge review
Despite its name, the lodge doesn't feel at all wilderness like. Although it is fairly remote, the way it is set out is like a holiday camp, so it feels more like a small built up area half way up the plateau rather than a lodge in the wilderness.
The staff were average and although they did their job they didn't seem to empathise with the guests or add to the trip. It felt more like a military operation than a lovely place to stay. They seemed very concerned with getting you to sign for towels, cups, books, room keys and keeping to schedule rather than providing a comfortable welcoming place to stay.
The food was provided but not described well leading me to eat something I am allergic to by accident, which is not very satisfactory especially in a remote place. The guides for the walk and game drive were good, but the rest of the staff were adequate rather than helpful. Not a good place to see animals, but the view from the plateau was lovely and it is worth the (fairly easy) walk. It might be worth investigating the plateau lodge instead, as it looked slightly more intimate with chalets and plunge pools.
The pool at the wilderness lodge didn't look too clean, so we didn't use it - too many dead leaves and other bits and bobs.
Cool efficiency at Waterberg
We were disappointed with this clearly very expensive and rather complacent lodge. Our first introduction on arrival was to be given a sheet of paper recording ten items to be found in our room; we were to take this to the lodge where a supervisor would check if off before he and we were to sign for them. The list included a room key and a plastic folder containing information about meal times and so on.
Compare this with the iced tea, cool flannels and thirty minutes informative and informal induction at Lianshulu or Mowani and Okonjima; the management here should know that such courtesy costs nothing (cost is clearly a significant part of Waterberg's mind set) and the reverse, with the implcation that guests are likely to drive away with the swimming towels or a tacky torch, is at the best tactless and, at the worst, offensive.
This attitude continued; two vehicles left for a game drive in the evening. Our guide introduced himself as 'Helmut' (there is a pretty patronising habit - see 'Purple Hibiscus' - where black Africans are given European names by their employers); I don't know if Helmut had adopted his own Westernised name or not but he certainly behaved as though he did not undertsand or belong to the lodge culture which surrounded him. No more did he guide; his passengers asked him on a number of occasions to stop and identify a bird, usually a bird, and he was clearly floundering.
Rosemary spotted the problem; he had no binoculars and a book for bird indentification in German which he clearly did not understand. She felt very strongly that this man was being let down by his employer in that he was inadequately equipped and improperly briefed, so much so that she asked to see Joachim the morning we left; he was absent so a note asking for a response had to suffice; no reply, by e-mail, yet. Poor, non-existent, welcome; poor information; pretty poor food; owners/management never in evidence; the whole feel was of an outfit too big for its own good (a second lodge to run could have added to the remoteness of the direction.)
Lovely setting - a monopoly - spoiled by lack of concern for guests' welfare and expectations. Thoroughly disappointing.
Expert Africa comments
We were fairly surprised by this review as, over a number of years, we have had very few complaints about Waterberg Wilderness Lodge.
Waterberg Wilderness Lodge comment that they are a mid-priced lodge, not top-end. It is approximately of half the price of Mowani, Lianshulu or Okonjima Bush Camp and (on the basis of our past experiences) we agree with them that they offer great value for money.
Regarding the welcome drink – when put to the owners they commented that guests are usually provided with a welcome drink on arrival and if this didn't happen on this occasion they are very sorry.
In Namibia it is very common to find black Namibians with German names as Namibia was once a German colony. The guide Helmut is a Herero and was indeed christened Helmut by his parents. His full name is Helmut Hameva. In modern Africa nobody re-names employees with westernized names.
Helmut did apologise to us though, for not having his British bird book or binoculars to hand for the nature drive: he simply forgot that day to take them with him.
Most of Namibia's small guest farms and independent lodges have their quirks and idiosyncrasies and although these are often puzzling, if you can dig deeper you will usually find interesting and informative explanations.
Waterberg Wilderness Lodge review
What a wonderful location. Only regret not having extra night to go into the Kalahari and meet up with the "locals".
We stayed in one of six widely spaced bungalows set against the plateau cliff and beautifully accommodated with own plunge pool and most tremendous views east across the Kalahari. Out of this world and quite stunning in every way and worth the somewhat steep and bendy track from the farm and lodge level below.
Would really recommend stay here for everything it has to offer. Three hour drive into the Kalahari very interesting . Pretty with plenty of fauna and birdlife. tracked down the pair of "home" rhinos imported from South Africa at some great expense. to see them both in the wild so close was memorable. Good luck to them in their breeding plans. Be just perfect to see some little ones soon
waterberg wilderness
good first night stop. decided against organised activity and went for local walk instead, which was ideal after flight / drive.
freindly welcome. good room.
communal food was some of the best we had on trip.
after dinner drinks on terrace for another hour would have been nice and appreciated by others as bar in resturant not so good. good advice from staff on routes for next day.
Waterberg good in parts.
Delightful setting and obviously serious money being spent on stocking the farm with game. But room small, shortage of unpacking space, badly lit, as is dining area. Staff at lodge okay-ish but owners made no contact with us.
Guides in field poor - no bird knowledge even for eagles and on Waterberg a (fresh) black rhino territorial scrape was described as where buffalo had been fighting. Also limited English and German.
Depending on your attitude to H&S, the Waterberg on foot is risky without an informed guide both due to big game and the potential to fall of the edge when taking photos. Probably the lodge ought to get guests to sign chits accepting risk, but good guiding is paramount. Regrettably, we would not revisit or recommend.

Three armed robberies were reported in Dale City within two days last week, according to Prince William County Police.
Three men entered the 7-Eleven store at 14797 Darbydale Rd. early Saturday morning and demanded money, while one of the men threatened the cashier with a handgun, police said. The men stole cash and fled the area.
The suspects were described as black men, all between 18 and 22 years old and wearing hooded sweatshirts and ski masks. Two of the men were estimated at 5 feet 10 inches tall and one was estimated to be 6 feet 2 inches tall.
Later Saturday morning, a 51-year-old man was robbed in the 14400 block of Brook Drive. The victim told police that a black male about 5 feet 10 inches tall approached him and threatened him with an unknown weapon. The attacker stole cash and assualted the victim. The victim reported minor injuries.
Three victims reported being robbed on Friday after an attempted shoe sale went bad. Two 15-year-old boys and a 42-year-old man were attempting to sell three pairs of shoes, reportedly worth about $300, on Facebook. They arranged a meeting with a male they did not know in front of a house in the 14700 block of Barksdale Street. When the victims arrived, they were surrounded by a group of men. One of the men threatened them with a handgun and demanded that they hand over the shoes and money. The man with the gun was described as a black male between 16 and 18 years old.

We appreciate your work on setting this up but we would like to keep our memorials in the family.
Being a fairly new member at Find A grave, it amazes me that strangers can be so nice and help the families out.
Find A Grave was unknown to me until just over a year ago. I have been working hard since that time to get all the relatives together again.
Thanks again for your efforts.

My husband and son are the only male survivors of the Antonio Warren family.
We would like to have you transfer my husband's cousin Sonny Warren #17619921 to our family.
Antonio Warren was Harry Warren' father and Harry's son was Sonny. Harry had 2 children, a girl and a boy. Both of them have passed away.
Somebody at Find A grave has even mistakenly added a second wife to Harry Warren's memorial which is totally incorrect. And left off other information. His wife died in 1993...we know this is fact! HARRY had just one wife, Josephine.
Do hope you can help to us re-unite some of the family.
Thanks, N. Warren

I think it's safe to say the Twins will not pick up Scott Baker's $9.25 million option for next year, but I do think they could bring him back at a much lower salary if he looks healthy coming back from TJ surgery. I really think other teams will have tepid interest in him at best, so it may come down to him taking the Twins' offer or simply not signing a major league contract that has any type of guarantees with any team for 2013.
What do you all think?

Amelia Darcy has no interest in marrying well. Her heart belongs to the sky and the dirigibles of brass and steel that swoop over Victorian England. But when her father, an eccentric inventor, dies, the Darcy siblings are left with scrap metal-and not a penny to their names. Their only hope to save the family name and fortune is to embark on a contest to discover an invention of historical importance in honor of Queen Victoria. Armed with only her father's stories of a forgotten da Vinci workshop, a mechanically enhanced falcon, and an Italian cook, Amelia takes flight for Florence, Italy. But her quest is altered when her kitecycle crashes into the air ship of exAir Marshal-and scandalous dime novel hero-Tucker Gentry. Challenged by political unrest, a devious sky pirate, and their own sizzling attraction, Amelia and Tuck are dragged into an international conspiracy that could change the course of history…again.

It seems like we toss around the term "addiction" rather easily. Chocolate, shoes, yoga, puggles, Pinterest; we can't just like something a lot, we have to be "addicted" to it. But what actually constitutes a real addiction?
Actually, there are two types of addictions, substance addictions and behavioral addictions. With a behavioral addiction, a person will obsessively think about, and compulsively engage in an activity, even though there are harmful consequences. If your son spends all his waking hours counting down the minutes until he can play Call of Duty, you may have a problem. If he has stopped studying, hanging out with friends, or sleeping to get in more playing time, you definitely have a problem.
, I recently sat down with Dr. David Greenfield, one of the leading authorities on Internet and cyber psychology, including its use and abuse, and author of "Virtual Addiction," to discuss video game addiction.
Sue: Let's start with the obvious; can playing video games be addictive?
Dr. Dave: The unpredictability and novelty of the internet medium itself is addictive. Video games work on the principal of operant conditioning. When playing the game, the reward center of the brain is stimulated releasing dopamine, a powerful "feel good" chemical in the brain. In addition, the player doesn't know when the reward is coming, making it all the more addictive. He or she will continuously play, looking for that "hit" of dopamine.
Sue: It seems boys are more attracted to video games than girls. Why is this?
Dr. Dave: Boys are more likely to become addicted to video games because they are hardwired for competition. It is easier and less stressful to have virtual social interactions, and it gives them the opportunity to be "King of the Hill" in the virtual world, which is something they might not get in the real world.
Sue: One way to get a kid to stop playing is to just throw the Xbox away. Is that what you would tell parents to do?
Dr. Dave: Getting rid of the gaming device, while it seems like a good idea, isn't the best way to handle a video game addiction. In extreme cases a child can get violent when it is taken away due to the withdrawal component. You want to break the cycle without causing a rift in the family.
Sue: What should parents do to break that cycle?
Dr. Dave: Before a child can be weaned off the virtual world, it is imperative to strengthen real world experiences. There are other ways to increase dopamine levels, such as sports, academic accomplishments and trying out for plays. Having alternative activities also has the benefit of eating up time which leaves less time for gaming. Of course, parents should limit and monitor use of video games, texting and social networking. Just being more involved in your child's life will help your child kick the habit.

The location was fantastic.
WE never did get room service during the stay.The hotel was overall in an excellent location with its proximity to the beach and downtown. It was a bit like stepping back to the 70's and could have used some updating. The bathroom door knob was broken and some of the items appeared broken. We had a problem upon checkin that the hotel only received one night of reservations from Priceline so we had to scramble to get our second night. Additionally the Priceline price was not honored and it cost more than the Priceline quote. For this reason I may not use Priceline again.

The breakfast was nice but each morning the staff used a heavy duty mixer that really ruined our dining experience.This is an extremely nice B&B in the center of Cannon Beach. The room we were in was exceptional, with a large fireplace and in a quiet setting. The staff was very nice and helped us with all our requests, including one to refrigerate some sandwiches.

DETROIT: Contrary to all logic and reason, when the Detroit Tigers announced that Justin Verlander would pitch Saturday night, fans everywhere should have known the Indians were even money to win the game.
Maybe not quite all logic and reason. There is Verlander's telling history against the Indians, who evened the series at one game apiece with a 7-6 victory.
Then again Ubaldo Jimenez has a history against the Tigers, and it's not very encouraging, especially in Detroit.
Jimenez (3-2, 5.55 ERA) came into the game dragging around the baggage of a 1-6 record and a 7.45 ERA at Comerica Park. Nevertheless, he outpitched Verlander (4-3, 1.40 ERA), who gave up four runs (three earned) on six hits and five walks in six innings. He also struck out seven, which on this night was almost irrelevant.
Perhaps we are seeing a new Jimenez. He yielded only one run, on a Jhonny Peralta home run, three hits and one walk, striking out eight in six innings.
"The movement on Ubaldo's two-seamer was really good," Indians manager Terry Francona said. "He kept his fastball down and there was a lot action on it. His off-speed pitches always are good, but his fastball helped make them better."
Jimenez has won three starts in a row, posting a 1.45 ERA. The last time he won three consecutive games was between July 9-19, 2011, when he still was the property of the Colorado Rockies.
"That gives me more confidence right now when I go to the mound," Jimenez said. "I know I'm going to throw strikes and give my team a chance to win."
Francona went to the bullpen after the sixth, even though Jimenez had thrown only 93 pitches.
"We talked to him; it was apparent that we should get him out of there," Francona said. "He was ready to come out."
Added Jimenez: "I didn't feel that good after that inning. I was a little tired and I waited through some long innings."
Jimenez probably didn't know that the Tribe has been Verlander's nemesis for years.
Over the course of his career, he has lost to the Indians 14 times (and beat them 14 times), more than any other opponent. Granted, because the Tigers are the in Central Division, Verlander faces the Wily Wahoos three or four times a season. But he has only two career losses to the Kansas City Royals, seven to the Minnesota Twins and 10 to the Chicago White Sox, all division rivals.
Verlander's 4.57 ERA against the Indians is highest for any opponent against whom he has more than four decisions.
Moreover, he often has been good but not lucky against the Tribe. Last year, for example, he posted a 2.45 ERA but his record was only 1-2.
Saturday night, he threw 35 pitches in the first inning and 62 through two innings. He did well to keep his pitch count to 110 in five. It was the first inning that ruined the outing for Verlander, who gave up a single to Michael Bourn, Nick Swisher's RBI double and three walks, including one that forced in a run.
"We talked about it before the game," Francona said of being patient against Verlander. "We wanted to make him work for everything. Sometimes the best way to beat him is to get him out of the game before the seventh inning.
"Our effort against Verlander was good, the way we drove his pitch count up."
Manufacturing a 4-1 lead against Verlander and expanding it to 6-1 against the Tigers bullpen didn't seal the win. Nick Hagadone and Cody Allen combined to give up four runs to cut the Tribe lead to 6-5 before Jason Giambi's sacrifice fly drove a run in the eighth.
Chris Perez had to work hard for his sixth save after Swisher made an error to give the Tigers a base runner with one out in the ninth. Perez followed by giving up two singles, as the Tigers trimmed the deficit to one run.
It could have been worse. Jason Kipnis stabbed Austin Jackson's hard ground ball up the middle and flipped a behind-the-back throw to second for a force to get the second out.
"That saved me," Perez said. "It was the play of the game for sure."
With two outs and runners at first and second, it came down to retiring Miguel Cabrera, who on a full count mis-hit a slow bouncer to third to end the game.
Cabrera came into the game 4-for-8 with a home run and double against Perez.

The State of the Federal Budget Is Opaque
Government accounting practices make a reasonable fiscal discussion more difficult.
For budget nerds, tonight's State of the Union speech is a prelude to the president's budget, which will be introduced a little over a month from now. The State of the Union usually presents a broad vision of goals and priorities, but the budget gives us details about where the administration would direct dollars to see those priorities implemented.
But even when we see the president's budget next month, we still won't have a true picture of where we stand financially and where we are going because we use a set of accounting principles that makes it hard to get a clear picture of what our obligations are. That is because the United States Government uses a cash based accounting system instead of accrual accounting, the standard accounting practice for large, complex entities.
What is the difference and why does it matter? The short version is this: Cash accounting simply tracks money in and money out, while accrual accounting takes into account all outstanding obligations. This difference matters because, under cash accounting, it is possible to ignore or underplay outstanding obligations the government must pay under existing contracts and laws. Moreover, cash accounting makes it more difficult to plan and budget for infrastructure upgrades and other major investments.
[See a collection of political cartoons on the budget and deficit.]
For decades, accounting professionals, presidential commissions and the Congressional Budget Office alike have recommended changing to accrual accounting as a means to make the federal budget more transparent and to encourage fiscal responsibility. The Securities and Exchange Commission requires that publically traded companies use accrual accounting and otherwise follow the so-called Generally Accepted Accounting Practices. The reason accrual accounting is favored is simple: It encourages large entities to reflect and plan for long-term fiscal health rather than simply looking at today's cash flow, which is the accounting principle version of living paycheck-to-paycheck.
Moving all federal budgeting and accounting to accrual standards seems like an obvious step. It will increase our understanding of our true deficits and debts and improve transparency and accountability across the government. So why, despite recommendations to make this change, starting as far back as the first Hoover Commission in 1949, hasn't the U.S. adopted this standard? The short answer is that making this change requires political will. And as we have seen for decades, politicians love to skew numbers to support their own positions instead of relying on vetted, neutral numbers.
Lawmakers are able to game the Congressional Budget Office scoring rules to hide long-term costs outside the 10-year budget window. Shifting to accrual accounting would shift debates about the long-term liabilities and benefits of different government actions out of the realm of political arguments and into the realm of agreed upon facts.
While it may just be budget nerds who focus on this much needed change, we would all benefit from the greater clarity and transparency we'd get from government-wide accrual accounting.

17-year-old Haley McWaid is a good girl, the pride of her suburban New Jersey family, captain of the lacrosse team, headed off to college next year with all the hopes and dreams her doting parents can pin on her. Which is why, when her mother wakes one morning to find that Haley never came home the night before, and three months quickly pass without word from the girl, the community assumes the worst.
Wendy Tynes is a reporter on a mission, to identify and bring down sexual predators via elaborateand nationally televisedsting operations. Working with local police on her news program Caught in the Act, Wendy and her team have publicly shamed dozens of men by the time she encounters her latest target. Dan Mercer is a social worker known as a friend to troubled teens, but his story soon becomes more complicated than Wendy could have imagined.
In a novel that challenges as much as it thrills, filled with the astonishing tension and unseen suburban machinations that have become Cobens trademark, Caught tells the story of a missing girl, the community stunned by her loss, the predator who may have taken her, and the reporter who suddenly realizes she cant trust her own instincts about this storyor the motives of the people around her.
"If the wealth of characters dilutes the suspense, Coben gives readers lots to think about when judging rights and wrongs." - Publishers Weekly
"Starred Review. Coben is in top form exposing the dark underside of modern suburbia. ... Complex and intricate, this is his best book since Promise Me. Don't escape, get Caught." - Library Journal

A Rollercoaster Ride!
CAUGHT is a rollercoaster ride with more twists and turns that you won't want to get off until the train hits the end of the track!
Seventeen-year-old Haley McWaid is a high school senior who goes missing. She has never been in trouble before, gets good grades and just seems to vanish leaving her parents heart-stricken.
Dan Mercer, is a social worker who works with trouble youth and receives word that a young girl is in trouble and could he meet her at her home to talk as she is shy. When Dan arrives he realizes he's been caught in a sting operation set up by t.v. report Wendy Tynes who is trying to expose sexual predators. Dan soon finds himself caught up in something he had no intentions of getting caught up in and Wendy is thrown into a situation she just wasn't prepared for.
This book reminded me of the television show on MSNBC with Rick Hansen where they monitor chat rooms online and set up meetings with alleged sexual predators of young kids.
This is a book not to be missed!
Rated of 5

The New York Daily News reports today that the phone company Verizon has been asked to turn over the private phone records of NYC journalist John Connolly as the Hollywood P.I. prepares his defense for the 2008 trial. Connolly, who's been reporting on the Pellicano scandal for years, is furious at the request which supposedly goes back all the way to 2002 when FBI agents raided Pellicano's offices. Meanwhile, I've heard that The New York Times reporting duo on Pellicano, David Halbfinger and Allison Hope Weiner, are officially off the story for the meantime and have returned to their normal beats.

I love Jennifer Garner even more now that I know she is so normal. She is so sweet.

Ok, raise your hands if you think that President Obama is 10 percentage points ahead of Republican Mitt Romney among voters in Ohio, right this very moment.
We're willing to bet your hands are still on your keyboards.
But the CBS News/New York Times poll, conducted by Quinnipiac University, that came out this week does; it showed Obama with 53 percent support to 43 percent for Romney; and, what is more, showed Obama ahead by nine percentage points in Florida and a whopping 12 percentage points in Pennsylvania.
A new poll shows President Obama holding large leads over Republican challenger Mitt Romney in three key battleground states - Ohio, Florida and Pennsylvania.
The Quinnipiac University/CBS News/New York Times poll released Wednesday has Obama up by 10 percentage points in Ohio - 53 percent to 43 percent for Romney.
GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney won't be with vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan Tuesday for the Cincinnati leg of their three-day bus tour of Ohio.
A spokesman for the campaign said Romney will join Ryan later in the day in Dayton.
According to the campaign website, Ryan will hold a rally at Byer Steel Group, 200 W. North Bend Rd., Carthage, late Tuesday morning. Details on RSVPs for the event are expected to be released Sunday.
Some say the fate of the nation may hang in the balance when voters in Hamilton County, Ohio, go to the polls to cast their ballots in the presidential election.
A swing county in a swing state; a county that Barack Obama won four years ago, in a state that Mitt Romney needs to wrest back from Obama, who won Ohio with 51.5 percent of the vote in 2008.
"Fate of the nation" is one thing. A pretty big thing, actually.
GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney and his running mate, Paul Ryan, will launch a three-day bus tour of Ohio Monday that includes a Tuesday event in Cincinnati.
The Romney-Ryan campaign has yet to announce details on the Cincinnati event - or any of the other stops on the tour.
It begins Monday in Lima.
Tuesday will include stops in Cincinnati and Dayton; and, on Wednesday, the GOP ticket will move on to events in Columbus, Cleveland and Toledo.

Gallagher's Steak House Restaurant Review: Photos of famous New York figures dot the walls and red-checked tablecloths top the tables at this speakeasy-turned-steakhouse that has been in business since 1927. Most people come here for the steaks, grilled over hickory logs. But the roast prime rib of beef and lamb chops are safe bets, too, and you can't go wrong with the double cut veal chops, the calf's liver steak (only on Wednesdays and Saturdays), the juicy salmon steak or the jumbo lump crab cakes. Side dishes, made up of all the standards, are buttery enough for steakhouse regulars. The cheesecake --- which can be easily shared --- lives up to expectations. The wine list is small and limited to mostly expensive Californian wines.

RE: re: Sylvester June and his family
Lizzie June was living with her brother Herbert Hallock in 1910, showing married, but no husband in the house. So, it is possible that they were separated or divorced. Then he died and was buried with his folks and then she died and she was buried with the Hallocks and her daughter. Just a guess.

Picasso wasn't the first.
Years before Francoise Gilot had even met Picasso, there was someone else. Sure, her name would be linked to the crusty Spaniard's long after her tempestuous years as his mistress. But Picasso did have a predecessor and Gilot remembers spotting him from the rarefied height of her grandmother's staircase in Paris.

DOVER, Del.- Delaware State Police have arrested two men in connection with nine daytime burglaries of unoccupied homes in Kent County.
Floyd A. Smith Jr., 22, of Wyoming, Del., was taken into custody on Wednesday, Sept. 26. He faces a total of 16 charges related to second-degree burglary, theft, second-degree conspiracy, possession of burglar tools, criminal mischief, theft by false pretense and falsifying business records.
Michael A. Johnson Jr., 41, of Clayton, Del., was taken into custody on Friday, Sept. 29. He is facing a total of 27 charges related to second-degree burglary, theft, second-degree conspiracy, possession of burglar tools and criminal mischief.
According to police, the arrests stemmed from a month-long investigation into the residential burglaries that occurred during the month of September in Dover, Camden, and Hartly. Smith and Johnson would break into the unoccupied homes and once inside would steal jewelry and other personal items, investigators said.
Following their arrests on their aforementioned charges, Smith was released on $33,000 unsecured bond and Johnson was ordered held in the James T. Vaughn Correctional Center on $57,000 bond.

The Food Bank Hunger Challenge includes two parts – a simulated food pantry experience and a self-imposed $4.50-per-person a day food budget. For the simulated pantry experience, we've provided the list below from an actual food pantry.
We ask that you purchase groceries from this list, which reflects the food you would receive from a Food Bank pantry. These groceries count as your "pantry food," but they do not count against your $4.50-a-day food budget.
Grocery quantities are listed according to family size. For example, if your family of 5 was participating in the Challenge, you would purchase 2 cantaloupes, 12 carrots, 7 onions, and so on. As an individual participating, however, you would purchase 1 cantaloupe, 6 carrots and 3 onions. These numbers reflect the actual quantities distributed at a Food Bank pantry.
Quantities are for individuals, (small families, 2+ people) and (large families, 5+ people)

About groceries at our pantries
The groceries above parallel those we provide to more than 30,000 families each week through our pantry network. More than 60 percent of our pantry distribution is fresh fruits and vegetables. The healthy produce is complemented by lean protein, such as chicken or eggs, and grains like rice and pasta.
Pantry participants pick out whichever groceries they like, with quantities adjusted by household number.
