Fantasy Football: Top 5 Contract Seasons For '09
By Jason Braine ,
Nothing motivates more than money. When an NFL player is in a contract year there is a lot of Motivation at stake.
Last season Kurt Warner was in a contract year. He passed for 4,583 yards 30 touchdowns, and 14 interceptions and led his team to the Super Bowl.
During the preseason, Warner was not even named the starter. He became one of the best sleeper picks in the '08 season for many fantasy owners.
As much as a contract year can motivate players to post big numbers. It can also have a negative effect.
When players start to hold out from team activities,it can have a very negative effect, and the longer the issue goes unresolved, the worse the impact can be.
There's a negative impact on the performance of any player that misses out on training camp and the preseason.
Here is my list for the top contract seasons for '09 that could have a big impact for fantasy owners.
Philip Rivers' stock has shot up from the beginning of last season. He went from a low end No.1 QB to one of the top five targeted QBs in the '09 draft.
Last season Rivers passed for a career-high 4,009 yards 34 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions.
But this year is not only a contract year for Rivers. WRs Vincent Jackson and Chris Chambers will also be playing for bigger deals. Expect Philip Rivers' stats to increase for the '09 season.
Last season, Vincent Jackson finally lived up to expectations. He set career-highs with 1,153 yards and seven touchdowns.
Jackson has emerged as Rivers' No.1 target and should pick up were he left off last season posting high fantasy points.
On the downside Jackson could be facing up to a four-game suspension for a DUI. However, don't let that detour you from drafting Jackson. He should be a great fantasy option every week that he plays.
Chambers had a disappointing '08 season, with a career-worst 462 yards and five touchdowns. Most of his production was in weeks 1-5.
In Week 5, Chambers injured his ankle, and never seemed to recover.
In the '09 season look for Chambers to bounce back and become a solid No. 3 option with upside.
Last season was Jennings "magic" third season as a WR. He lived up to expectations setting career-highs in yards and receptions. Jennings had 80 receptions for 1,292 yards.
With Aaron Rodgers under center last season Jennings touchdown numbers dropped from the '07 season. However, he still posted nine touchdowns in '08.
Since this is Rodgers second year leading the offense, and a contract year for Jennings, look for Jennings to live up to expectations again.
Jennings is projected to be a top 10 WR. However he could end up No. 3 or No. 4 by the end of the season.
Last season, Ronnie Brown was very hit-or-miss week-to-week in fantasy football.
In the '08 season Brown rushed for 926 yards and 10 touchdowns.
For the '09 season he has a lot of factors working in his favor to post huge numbers this season.
First, Brown is in a contract year.
Second, this will be his second season back from ACL surgery. Statically, RBs that are in their second year from ACL surgery can have one of their biggest years.
Third, the Dolphins have improved their offensive line from last year.
Finally look for Brown to get more carries this season. Since the Dolphins will be moving him to a featured-back position in the '09 season.
Last season White became rookie sensation Matt Ryan's favorite target, finishing with 1,382 yards receiving and seven touchdowns.
With the addition of Tony Gonzales at TE,the Falcons could have a very high-powered offense for the '09 season.
White has already established himself as Ryan's favorite target and could post higher numbers than last year, which could set a record for the Falcons.
Last season, Turner proved to be a valuable asset on the goal line. However, this season the Falcons face a much tougher strength of schedule against the run.
Look for Turner's total TDs to be less than 17, making Roddy White and the rest of the passing game to make up the difference.
For the last two years Jason Campbell has had a lot of hype as a sleeper QB. Yet Campbell has not lived up to the hype.
Not only is this a contract season for Campbell. It could be make-or-break time.
If Jason produces this season he could have a bright future starting in the NFL. If he does poorly he could become a permanent backup QB in the NFL.
On the bright side for Campbell this season will be his first since before playing at Auburn that he will be in the same system for two consecutive seasons.
Last year under Jim Zorn, Campbell posted career-high numbers. With 3,245 yards, 13 touchdowns, and only six interceptions.
Look for Campbell to improve those stats this season.
However, at best he will be a quality No 2 fantasy QB with the potential to be a low-end No. 1 fantasy QB.

just get a no6 goliathe, or goliathe icon. im prety sure they come in 42, or 43.5. and the board is much thicker. i think a 63 mm core? the board will float you perfectly and wont feel to big.
Dudes, BZ...ok board for youngins! I would stay around 43 bc you will have way more options. Me personally, I'm a gear head and would stay away from BZ, Morey unless it's a Pro board (Bunting is sick), and most Custom X boards. I stick to Aussie boards but the are tough to get in the states. If your willing to drop a 250$, you'll have a better board than most spongers in the water. Ceck out BoogerKing or bodyboarders.com/au. I now my stuff when it comes to boards so if you have any questions just ask.

Which way should I learn web development?
June 6, 2011
I'm trying to sort out the tangle of web development education options.
I've pretty much decided that, to get out of the weird niche that I've worked myself into, I need to pick up some further skills (or at least flesh out a lot of the stuff that I've kind of half-learned on an ad-hoc basis when needed). So, good for me. Time to learn some web development.
But I'm suffering from a little bit of decision paralysis. From where I sit, my options appear to be:
1. Totally self-guided learning through books and/or websites. I actually went and picked up an O'Reilly guide to learning PHP and MySQL, and have started working my way through it. I don't love the approach, and it's kind of a chore having to detour out for logistical stuff (like getting a MySQL server set up to play with). A friend suggested the tutorials on Lynda.com, and maybe that'd help with the not-liking-the-approach part.
2. Taking for-credit classes at a local community college. Lots of advantages there in terms of structure and guidance, and if I stuck it through, I'd have some documentation; but expensive and slow.
3. Taking Continuing Education (so, not-for-credit) classes at the same CC. Cheaper, and I think it'd offer a similar amount of structure with more flexibility.... but I don't know if the lack of credit/documentation matters, or if the classes would actually have as much info as the for-credit versions.
I'm town between the 3. I don't think #1's a winner, really, because of the lack of structure and the fact that it's too easy for self-directed study to fall into the cracks when life gets busy. But I'm not quite ready to totally abandon it.
I guess I'd love to hear any thoughts/suggestions/experiences anyone has. Particularly if you're someone who'd be on the other side of the hiring process- what would you look for? If an applicant had just taken some Continuing Ed classes, or learned from a book, what proof would you need to see to confirm they knew what they were talking about?

In this job market, speaking generally, you're best off with community college for-credit classes. It's hard to break in to the tech industry without experience (meaning you get an internship or do pro-bono work, which is hard to get without experience, but less difficult than an actual job) or a degree, although it is possible. You'd have neither with one, just what you've taught yourself and maybe a portfolio of practice projects you've done. You might even end up having to start with low-paying jobs or internships just to get your foot in the door with a degree, but it'll be that much easier than trying to get started with nothing.
If you can afford it, I recommend number 2. If you have the time and energy for it, summer classes are a good value and get you credits quickly, although the courses are accelerated and therefore harder. Or, study with number 1 between classes so that you can get the degree really easily.
Keep in mind this is based on what I've heard from peers and professors as a computer science major, so they have a bit of a pro-degree bias.
Good luck with whatever you choose!

I'm a web development teacher, but I have a great deal of interaction with the industry. I'll approach your questions last-to-first:
what proof would you need to see to confirm they knew what they were talking about?
Unless you are going for a programming job, the proof lies largely in what you have made: a portfolio of work done for yourself or on a freelance basis.
By and large, good< classes
learning (more on that in a moment), but no-one is going to pay much attention to the fact that you have or don't have a certificate. (It may be helpful, but not having one shouldn't stop a business from hiring a talented, self-taught developer). In terms of the body of work you should have before approaching a company for work, think of several small sites, ideally with some graphic/photography/design work thrown in.
As for the best route for your education, that depends on several factors. It
like you would do best from a blended approach: taking a course during the day or evening to provide structure and supplementing it with your own research and effort (books, online resources). If the instructors know what they are talking about, they can save you a great deal of time in avoiding missteps and blind alleys.
Unfortunately, in my experience, there are a lot of web development instructors who don't really know what they're doing. Lynda.com seems to be fairly up with the play, and the O'Reilly resources are really good; I'd also strongly recommend the
Opera Web Standards Curriculum
(And perhaps, humbly,
my blog
I have a few suggestions that may help you determine the quality and appropriateness of classes:
Do they emphasize valid code, or simply "what works"?
Do they mention accessibility standards?
Do they have a class or courses on mobile development?
Do they at least mention HTML5?
(Keep in mind that these may or may not appear on official course outlines - I know that what I teach, especially in night courses, is sometimes starkly different from what is officially published as the course outline, due to a combination of lack of time and rapid technology changes. You may want to take the opportunity to contact the instructors directly).
I hope this helps!

I think the most useful thing you can do is start building a portfolio featuring live websites you've built via self guided learning*. A friend's sister setting up a hair salon? Offer to build a 3 page site for $small or in exchange for hair treatments. Neighbour needs a WordPress site? Offer to build it in exchange for firewood or dog walking. Learn by building, add the built sites to your portfolio and start promoting yourself as a freelancer or in the job market.
Don't have the design skills/want to focus more on the dev side? Team up with someone skilled in graphic design wanting to move to web design.
* HTML, CSS, Javascript, a CMS (starting with WordPress) and its language (e.g. PHP) and so on. There are so many fantastic resources out there, all bang up to date (which bricks and mortar institutions often aren't). A subscription to
costs $25/month and you'd be able to learn the basics and more very quickly.
has some great video courses too (the
Russ Weakley
ones especially).

One thing I'm trying to figure out-- and I guess hoping to maybe short-circuit this by taking classes-- is how qualified is qualified. Like, I've been putting up WordPress sites for years, but have never really had a handle on whether that meant anything as a qualification. Does being able to go in and do some futzing with HTML and CSS count for anything?

I think the real question is what you want to do? When I started in this field, one guy really did do all the web stuff, but in many places it's become a very specialized field.
Are you looking into staying in our once shared field? Non-profits in general? There are certainly opportunities in the non-profit world to take "can tweak the heck out of wordpress" and turn it into a decent gig, or at least a very good way to build a portfolio.
In all the hiring I've been a part of, we care far more about what you've done, in portfolio and work experience, than where you studied. So consider your own learning style and try to figure out what you're trying to get out of it.
When you get into the more specialized end of the pool, it certainly helps to have some formal training. Not so much for the degree, but the theory of how it all breaks down. It's taken years of mistakes for me to learn what most CS majors covered in the first term.

I'm actually still somewhat trying to figure that out, but I feel like I'm having a chicken-egg problem in not really knowing where all of the specializations branch off. I know that many of the postings I see that look interesting require front-end development skills, so I'm trying to kind of point myself in that direction. As for staying in museums/nonprofits, my biggest goal is to get out of the really specific database track I've backed myself into. So web-oriented museum/nonprofit jobs would be on the table, but I'm also at least open to the idea of heading back into the private sector.

I guess it's official now that everyone really loves Daft Punk's "Get Lucky." It was sort of the song of the summer, right behind "Blurred Lines," and fans have embraced Random Access Memories largely because of the song's popularity. Random Access Memories was a great record but, if I'm being honest, I really missed the electronic beats and squeals from the lovable robotic French duo's earlier work. I guess I'm just "one of those fans" who can't accept change.
If you like older-style electronic music with light-up robotic helmets and a taste for darker tones, you'll love Cincinnati's own Black Signal. Just like Daft Punk, they stand in front of formidable stacks of synthesizers and sequencers with LED-laden glass disguising their faces. But unlike Daft Punk, they make music for caustic nights of seclusion and terrifying journeys through abandoned, crumbling cityscapes instead of fashionable, breezy parties. Seriously, just take a listen. These guys aren't playing around [I'm not sure if they're both actually "guys" or not because of the helmets]. People have name-checked everything from electronica to hard-rock, noir, soundscape, and doom metal in their sound. It sounds to me like a soundtrack to an 90′s science fiction flick about a disturbing future dystopia.
Give these Cincinnati techno-freaks a try: we need more strange music.
Sorry, comments are closed.

Respiratory picornaviruses and respiratory syncytial virus as causative agents of acute expiratory wheezing in children
We studied the viral etiology of acute expiratory wheezing (bronchiolitis, acute asthma) in 293 hospitalized children in a 2-year prospective study in Finland. A potential causative viral agent was detected in 88% of the cases. Eleven different viruses were represented. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) (27%), enteroviruses (25%), rhinovirus (24%), and nontypable rhino/enterovirus (16%) were found most frequently. In infants, RSV was found in 54% and respiratory picornaviruses (rhinovirus and enteroviruses) in 42% of the cases. In older children, respiratory picornaviruses dominated (65% of children ages 1-2 years and 82% of children ages >3 years). Human metapneumovirus was detected in 4% of all children and in 11% of infants. To prevent and treat acute expiratory wheezing illnesses in children, efforts should be focused on RSV, enterovirus, and rhinovirus infections.

Wow. Thank God Shurmur's on the opposite sideline. Indy has a chance to win because of that.
I'm non-plussed at this performance. What a shitty game by the Colts. That the Browns are still losing says how bad they are.

People love the Roomba. Why? Because it allows you to vacuum a room while sitting on the couch. Also because it seems more attainable than the Segway. And then a cat rode one, and it was glorious. Now comes something truly groundbreaking -- Roomba art. As far as we can tell, the trend started on a blog called Signal Theorist, who got the idea to set up a camera, turn off all the lights, and take a long-exposure photo of the Roomba's path as it "did its thing." The result looked like an awesomely psychedelic electrical spider web. Now more people are getting inspired to try variations on the same technique, and the creativity seems to be concentrated in the Flickr group, Roomba Art. Check out a few below, but be sure to head over to the group to see them all.

Hillary Clinton Speaks at the Democratic National Convention
Day Two: The Democratic Party Unites With Hillary's Big Speech
Dressed in radiant orange, Hillary Clinton, runner-up in the historic Democratic primary, owner of those 18 million cracks in the glass ceiling, brought down the house. The vibe in the air, in the city, and in the arena was one of unadulterated excitement.
Excitement that the candidate who made it so far in the race was here to lend her formidable prowess to the candidate to be, pride over what she accomplished, respect for how she did it, and a little bit of ownership over the memories. Regardless of who voted for whom, in Denver tonight, Democrats came together.
Hillary Clinton, long accused of splintering the party during the agonizing months of the campaign, successfully made the Democrats whole. With signs waving in the stands with "Unity" on one side, and "Obama" on the other, Hillary made even those who aren't Democrats proud to be part of the country that made her candidacy possible. The mood is ebullient and electric, weepy and thrilled. To some tonight, Hillary Clinton just became the new Bill. But that's just what I think — what about you?

Reviews for Meatball Sub Casserole(6)
Sort By :
Yum, yum, yum! This was a huge hit at the "hotdish" potluck at our church. There was virtually nothing left to bring home; I don't think my husband even got a serving before it was all gone. I probably won't make this too often, as we're trying to eat healthier, but for special splurges it definitely is worth it.
I too had to hunt down this recipe on the Internet. I'm glad it's here at TOH so I could save it. I have made this two times before. Each time I've used different sauces made by the same company, Balducci's out of Chicago. One sauce is a Vodka sauce and the other had a bit of a kick in flavor, it was their Arrabbiata sauce. This dish is easy to prepare and delicious to eat. Everyone I have served it to went back for seconds and thirds. I have also embellished the meatballs by using grass fed beef, ground pork and Italian sausage mixed. I also use a 9 x 13. Any meatballs left over are a bonus for a future dish.
3 cup baking dish?
Jill the original recipe is awesome, you're right! Your post sent me on a hunt to find it & I did! They've renamed the recipe to Baked Simple Meatball Stroganoff.
I would make the ORIGINAL recipe again.... When I originally bookmarked this recipe, it was different... a bigger size casserole. I found the original here: http://wegottaeat.com/janice.cook/recipes/taste-of-home-meatball-sub-casserole I'm not happy that the website changed the recipe rather than just making a page for a second recipe! Anyway, the first recipe was great. I didn't need to use all of teh cream cheese mixture though, and I used FF or low fat for all of the cheeses. My kids loved it too!

► Global quantification of DDR-regulated phosphoproteome, acetylome, and proteome ► Phosphorylation is regulated more robustly than acetylation after DNA damage ► Much DDR-induced phosphorylation depends on non-ATM/ATR/DNA-PK kinases ► THRAP3 is phosphorylated and excluded from sites of DNA damage
The regulatory networks of the DNA damage response (DDR) encompass many proteins and posttranslational modifications. Here, we use mass spectrometry-based proteomics to analyze the systems-wide response to DNA damage by parallel quantification of the DDR-regulated phosphoproteome, acetylome, and proteome. We show that phosphorylation-dependent signaling networks are regulated more strongly compared to acetylation. Among the phosphorylated proteins identified are many putative substrates of DNA-PK, ATM, and ATR kinases, but a majority of phosphorylated proteins do not share the ATM/ATR/DNA-PK target consensus motif, suggesting an important role of downstream kinases in amplifying DDR signals. We show that the splicing-regulator phosphatase PPM1G is recruited to sites of DNA damage, while the splicing-associated protein THRAP3 is excluded from these regions. Moreover, THRAP3 depletion causes cellular hypersensitivity to DNA-damaging agents. Collectively, these data broaden our knowledge of DNA damage signaling networks and highlight an important link between RNA metabolism and DNA repair.

Bill Clinton & Bob Dole
Will the 2012 Election Be 1996 All Over Again?
by Paul Hogarth' Apr. 04' 2011
With right-wing ideologues in Congress hell-bent on a federal government shutdown, it�s looking like
1995 all over again
. Which raises the question, will the 2012 election be a repeat of 1996? If so, progressives are in deep trouble � and it�s our job to stand up to this President and demand history not repeat itself. Like Bill Clinton, Barack Obama will win re-election handily � as polls show the crop of Republican candidates far outside the mainstream. But like Clinton, Obama has repeatedly snubbed his progressive base � and continues to disillusion Democratic voters. While 2012 should be a repudiation of the 2010 election, we could see � like 1996 � Republicans keeping the House (and even taking the Senate), because a triangulating President co-opted a right-wing agenda to save his own hide. And in a
must-read article
The Nation
, Obama�s choice for re-election campaign manager � Jim Messina � only confirms the worst fears we should have about 2012.
1996 was a very formative year for me personally. In March, I turned 18 years old. In May, I had my first political campaign experience. In September, I became a naturalized U.S. citizen. And in November, I voted for the very first time. But it was also the year Bill Clinton signed the Defense of Marriage Act, the Telecommunications Act, the Freedom to Farm Act, a harsh Immigration Bill, the Helms-Burton Act and � of course � Welfare Repeal. By the time I finally got the chance to vote, I felt like a total chump for supporting Bill Clinton. The guy gave me absolutely nothing to hope for.
I was not alone. At the Democratic National Convention (a mere week after Clinton signed the Welfare Bill), Tom Hayden was left mumbling on PBS that progressives would just have to �submerge� their frustration with the President until after the election. The alternative news site
Common Dreams
was launched in early 1997, because its founders said progressives had felt �robbed� by the 1996 election. In fact, the only presidential candidate that year who even pretended to care about working-class Americans in this economy was � Pat Buchanan.
And now, I�m afraid the same thing could happen all over again. Bill Clinton sealed his re-election when Republicans shut down the federal government, but he never used that political capital to help Democrats win back Congress. By co-opting Republican pieces of legislation and leaving his Democratic colleagues out in the cold, he gave the House Republicans tangible legislative proposals that they could go back to their home districts � and argue they were not a �do-nothing� bunch of right-wing ideologues. In the end, Republicans not only kept the House � but actually picked up two seats in the Senate.
Even if Obama comes out of a looming federal shutdown looking good, do you honestly expect him to help Democrats re-take Congress? The guy wouldn�t even go to Wisconsin to
rally against
Scott Walker�s attempt to annihilate state workers. And just like in 2010, we won�t see the same energy like we saw back in 2008.
But there�s no reason why it has to be this way. For starters, Bill Clinton � unlike Obama � was never a progressive. Democrats were so tired of being in the political wilderness after 12 years of Reagan-Bush, they were willing to support a Southern moderate who flew back to Arkansas in the middle of the campaign to execute a mentally retarded man. It was disheartening, but not surprising, to see him sell out progressives later � because in the end, Bill Clinton just wanted to be President. Obama, on the other hand, took on the Clinton dynasty to win the nomination. His background as a community organizer, and his very progressive campaign about engaging the grassroots, signaled a genuine change.
More importantly, though, America is far more progressive than 16 years ago. While 2010 was a Republican rout like 1994, Democrats kept the Senate � and what the election proved more than anything is how much Tea Party extremists have taken over the GOP nomination process. In the eyes of Middle America, however, Republicans are clearly out of step with the mainstream. Democrats lost because of a huge �enthusiasm gap� from 2008 � a gap that Obama and the Democrats have done nothing at all to address.
So how are we more progressive today? Demographics. Latinos (who vote Democratic) are the fastest growing ethnic group, there�s a rise of the secular �creative class� among white suburban voters and we have a younger electorate. As Chris Bowers has
, Michael Dukakis would have won the 2008 race on demographics alone � and, when you factor in demographics, was a stronger candidate than John Kerry.
In other words, there is no inherent reason why history has to repeat itself again.
But what about the myth that we are a �center-right� country? Political pundits who say that are confusing the nation�s electorate with political discourse in Washington. Without a doubt, Beltway politics has a �center-right� bias � because driving the discussion that way benefits the rich and powerful. Which is why you see Keith Olbermann get fired, while buffoons like Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity still get their shows on Fox News.
Nowhere was this more obvious than the public option fight on health care reform � where
polls showed it popular
(even in Blue Dog districts), but we were told that Democrats in Congress �don�t have the votes.� We saw that again in December 2010, when Obama admitted the American people don�t want to keep Bush tax cuts for the wealthy � but the Republican
in the U.S. Senate wouldn�t budge. It didn�t matter that Washington DC was clearly out of touch with America. We were going to let conservatives win anyway.
But Obama � and most Democrats in Washington � haven�t learned from this. They are too cowed into submission, too afraid from what happened in the 1990�s, that they still believe we are a �center-right� nation � assuming, of course, that they even
to push a more progressive politics. And as the President mobilizes for his re-election in 2012, he has appointed a truly awful person as his campaign manager � Jim Messina.
In a
must-read article
The Nation
, Ari Berman breaks down who is Jim Messina. He was Rahm Emanuel�s deputy, who chastised the Campaign for America�s Future efforts to �dog the Blue Dogs� on health care reform � threatening them with a loss of access if they didn�t back off. �We know how to handle the Blue Dogs better than you do,� said Messina. The guy has open contempt for outside lobbying activities that empower the Democratic base � although that goes against everything Obama�s campaign was about.
Make no mistake about it � what Obama accomplished in 2008 by unseating Democratic heir apparent Hillary Clinton was remarkable, because the establishment �always wins� in primaries. And it could never have been accomplished without the movement power of his supporters � or the reforms that Howard Dean had put in place at the Democratic National Committee. �[Messina] is not of the Obama movement,� Berman quotes a top Democratic strategist. �There is not a bone in his body that speaks to or comprehends the idea of a movement and that grassroots energy. To me, that�s bothersome.�
Oh, and he was a long-time aide to Montana Senator
Max Baucus
� who bungled health care reform by arresting single-payer advocates and kowtowing to private insurance (while Messina shielded all public pressure on Baucus from advocates.)
So how will Messina engineer Obama�s re-election? By placing the President �above the fray� in our partisan battles � painting Republicans as the right-wing extremists that they are. But that will do nothing to help Democrats re-gain Congress, because it triangulates against the base. With the 2012 Democratic National Convention in anti-union
Charlotte, North Carolina
, it�s further proof that the Obama re-election campaign is more interested in chasing conservative voters in the South � than reaching swing voters out in the West.
Would Obama�s re-election be a good thing for the country? Just like it was preferable for Bill Clinton and not Bob Dole to win in 1996, the answer is �yes.� But it will do nothing for progressive change � and further demoralize us after Obama�s promise.
In a 1995 interview for
Mother Jones Magazine
, progressive playwright Tony Kushner had a great line about America�s political discourse: �what used to be called conservative is now called moderate, what used to be called moderate is now called liberal, what used to be called liberal is now called radical, what used to be called radical is now called insane, and what used to be called insane is now called conservative.�
Those words are even more prescient today.
EDITOR�S NOTE: Paul Hogarth is currently on vacation, and has a reservation to the Grand Canyon from April 12-14. Unless there is progress in budget talks, the federal government will shut down on April 8th � which would close all national parks.

Book 2 of the Pure Trilogy We want our son returned. This girl is proof that we can save you all. If you ignore our plea, we will kill our hostages one at a time. To be a Pure is to be perfect, untouched by Detonations that scarred the earth, and sheltered inside the paradise that is the Dome. But Partridge escaped to the outside world, where Wretches struggle to survive amid smoke and ash. Now, at the command of Partridge's father, the Dome is unleashing nightmare after nightmare upon the Wretches in an effort to get him back. At Partridge's side is a small band of those united against the Dome: Lyda, the warrior; Bradwell, the revolutionary; El Capitan, the guard; and Pressia, the young woman whose mysterious past ties her to Partridge in ways she never could have imagined. Long ago a plan was hatched that could mean the earth's ultimate doom. Now only Partridge and Pressia can set things right. To save millions of innocent lives, Partridge must risk his own by returning to the Dome and facing his most terrifying challenge. And Pressia, armed only with a mysterious Black Box containing a set of cryptic clues, must travel to the very ends of the earth, to a place where no map can guide her. If they succeed, the world will be saved. But should they fail, humankind will pay a terrible price . . .

See all CSPO courses in Boulder, CO, United States
Rally Software
Ronica Roth
Date: 23-24 September, 2008 Location: Boulder, CO, United States
Regular Price: $1200 per person
Iterative and incremental development requires a steady stream of highest-value Agile requirements which are elaborated just-in-time and thus remain fresh and relevant. Agile software development puts both control and responsibility for success squarely in the hands of the "Product Owner". The challenge becomes how to provide the constant evaluation of value, the constant interaction with the delivery team, and the constant determination off whether requirements are, indeed, done. The best Product Owners harness the Agile feedback loops to constantly improve the value the software organization is delivering. Whether the "product" is for sale in the marketplace, for internal consumption, or custom software built on spec, the Agile product organization must be able to plan for success.
Rally's Certified Scrum Product Owner Training is a two-day, exercise-intensive training designed to help participants.
Attending Product Owners learn:
Agile requirements management-modeling, user stories, acceptance criteria, just-in-time elaboration, ranking backlog items Agile planning-visioning, road-mapping, release planning, iteration planning
The Agile product organization-how to organize to support the flow that delivers value iteratively and incrementally, whether you need to support one Agile team, or an entire program or enterprise
Though each CSPO course varies depending on the instructor, all Certified Scrum Product Owner courses focus on Scrum from a product owner's perspective. Graduates will receive the CSPO designation. All CSPO course are taught by Certified Scrum Trainers.

After 3 weeks of being in Australia, we were shocked that our vision of kangaroos and dingos roaming the streets were false. A short ferry ride later and we arrived at the Taronga Zoo.

Learn Many Architectures, and Choose Among Them
September 15th, 2008
I've just came across the following quote from Release It!: Design and Deploy Production-Ready Software that fully describes the point I tried to make in my previous post on "One-size-fits-all architectures" :
Not every system needs to look like a three-tier application with an Oracle database. Learn many architectural styles, and select the best architecture for the problem at hand.
Here you go. Book review coming soon.

When the founders of Orlando Trip Kit went to Walt Disney World to celebrate their son's second birthday, a relative who lived nearby showed up at their hotel room with a basket filled with granola bars, cereals, drinks, and snacks. At first, they thought she was crazy—but after four days, they found they emptied the entire basket. After realizing how much money they'd saved, as well as how many hunger-related temper tantrums they'd avoided, they decided to start their Orlando Trip Kit to make travel easier for other Orlando visitors.
Today, Orlando Trip Kit allows vacationers and business travelers alike to bypass baggage fees by custom-filling boxes to be dropped off at their hotels. Their online shop has all the essentials—sunscreen, diapers, baby food, snacks, and drinks—so resort visitors don't have to pay higher prices to keep hunger at bay and stay protected against the rays emanating from the sun or theme-park mascots outsourced from the local toxic-waste plant. Shoppers can stock their boxes with individual items, or order bundles and kits designed to keep families well supplied.
Pirate's Island and Pirate's Cove plunge putters deep into a thicket of thieving pirates, buried treasure, and stowaways tangled in rigging. Players select an appropriately sized putting club and a golf ball of any color, asserting individuality while creating polychromatic turf art. Putt through two 18-hole courses (one at the Daytona Beach Shores location), skirting shimmering waterfalls that conceal skeletons and spelunking convocations behind translucent veils. The golf course abuts a glorious gift shop, and snacks are available for additional gold.
Bright-blue garage doors slide shut over each unit inside the low-slung white buildings of Cowtown Mini Warehouse Self Storage, shutting off valuables such as boats, cars, or diamond-encrusted scepters from the outside world. Items are left inside the 240-square-foot spaces by clients who entrust the facility to safely and securely stow their belongings for a period of time. Owners rest easy knowing their boats are safely and securely tucked away for the cold months and smaller possessions are protected while they travel for extended periods of time. When they're ready to retrieve them, owners can show back up to the facility at any time of day or night to haul the items off.

WarCry: StaticX: Will more customizations for characters be implamented any time soon?
Phathom: More anytime soon? Not actually. We're working on adding helms for update 4 and with that addition, we will be removing a small amount of facial animations. We originally thought it was going to eliminate a lot of customizations but as we have found out after further review, we will not need to remove very many at all.
Phathom: Obviously, very many doesn't equate to a true number but we will follow up soon with the customizations we are removing with a list of the benefits you will recieve when this goes live
WarCry: Gadareth: Will saddlebags have their capacity increased to at least match that offered by bags ?
Silius: Should already be live
WarCry: schug: What steps have you already taken to hinder or completely stop the use of third-party programs? What do you plan to do in the future that you already haven't done as well?
Head-GM-Moonlite: Hey schug! Excellent question! If you play on Sartok (Hi Sartokians!) you'll know that recently big holes have been made by the GM team in collaboration with the coding and programming teams to catch those using third party programmes! ?
Head-GM-Moonlite: I can not tell you certain things, because then the cheaters will know what we have implemented, but I can tell you this is one of the top priorities for both customer service and coding teams. These programmes change constantly, and get more clever all the time, but we are all working hard to stop this. I will let you all into another secret...SOE has a policy where we do not discuss action against accounts that you do not o
Head-GM-Moonlite: We also don't spam to the servers every time someone had action taken against them, but there are plans in the works to release weekly the numbers of people we catch. I can tell you today alone we banned12 accounts for teleport hacking.
Head-GM-Moonlite: :)
WarCry: Akroma_Sartok: With MMO's like Warhammer and AOC on the horizon, how do you plan to not only keep the current playerbase but also increase the amount of players in Vanguard?
GlipSOE: The answer is pretty simple really, we plan to just keep making the best game possible. We've got a lot of really fun things planned for next year and even though other games may be "newer" we're gonna have some pretty neat features going in as well that I think will keep us very competitive.
WarCry: Caspin: With Vanguard being out for almost a year and GU3 and 4 being geared to high level players, it appears that you will be switching to push updates to attract new players and raise server population after GU4, do you expect that you will have enough time after GU4 to push out additional high end content after you finish your plans to attract more people to avoid stagnation at the end-game?
GlipSOE: There's certainly a balance that we need to strike in order to satisfy both sides of the player base, but having just gone over next year's schedule today I think we've got them spaced out pretty good. We're never really getting away from either for more than an update at a time, if at all.
WarCry: Nemoen: With the release of APW, the level 50 crowd has new content to focus through. Yet
it is a matter of speculation on how long it will last. Are they any plans in the works to give Vanguard an Alternate Advancement System similar to EQ, or for that matter a raise in the level cap?
Phathom: During the next year, we are planning on adding alternate advancement system(s) as well as adding more high end content with more high level raid-dungeon encounters and overland raid encounters.
Phathom: Obviously, if players are leveling faster than the content we are putting in, we have a big problem. So we'll be focusing on giving more high level content to the player base, adding more raid content, AA's, etc...
Phathom: Level caps are slated for the next year as well but we have a bit of planning before it is implemented
Phathom: we want to make sure we do it right
WarCry: Starocotes: When will there be a community-service that informs early WHY and HOW LONG servers are down? maybe in launcher or on website ?
Ellyra: We will always attempt to inform players as soon as we are aware of any downtime or server maintenance. The Vanguard Announcements section of the forums should be updated whenever servers will be unavailable, as well as the VGPlayers page.
Ellyra: In addition to this, Customer Service will often broadcast in-game whenever they can to inform players of unexpected downtime. The SOE Knowledge Base also has information regarding downtimes.

How does one GET as completely insane as you are? I must admit, however, that every single union member I've ever known has been batspit crazy and EATEN UP with a bad attitude. BTW, you liberals ARE to blame for every single bad thing that has happened in this country. Every single thing. Poooooooooor looney liberal lunatic union thug.
You never answered my post to you about Obamacare and how 8 unions are FINALLY waking up to the lies and deceit. According to the article I posted, you union types with your cadalliac healthcare plans will have the highest costs and will lose the most benefits. Putting off the big business mandate has the union leadership in quite the quandary. Seems that will leave you union thugs flapping in the breeze. waaaaaaaaaaaaaa waaaaaaaaaaaaaa

'Lee Daniels' The Butler': What the Critics Are Saying
The Weinstein Co. drama, starring Forest Whitaker and Oprah Winfrey, hits U.S. theaters on Aug. 16.
After months of anticipation, and a legal battle over the title of the film, The Weinstein Co.'s drama centering on a White House butler hits theaters this Friday.
Starring Forest Whitaker as Cecil, the title character, and Oprah Winfrey as his wife, Gloria, Lee Daniels' The Butler traces the service of a man who worked in the executive mansion over decades. The star-studded cast also includes Mariah Carey, Cuba Gooding Jr., Terrence Howard and Robin Williams (as President Eisenhower) and John Cusack (as President Nixon).
STORY: Why 'Lee Daniels' The Butler' Has 41 Producers
Here's a snapshot of how reviewers responded to Lee Daniels' The Butler:
The Hollywood Reporter's chief film critic, Todd McCarthy, wrote that the "emotionally effective" drama is "always engaging, often entertaining and certainly never dull." He observed: "This is not an artful, tidy or sophisticated film, but its subject and his stationary odyssey are of such a singular nature that, as a great playwright once wrote, attention must be paid to such a person."
In a wire service review that may be widely circulated in local papers as the title hits U.S. theaters, the Associated Press critic Joceyln Noveck points to the title as necessary filmmaking. "Not all the star performances are successful," noting Robin Williams' appearance as Eisenhower. However: "Daniels and company may not have made a masterpiece, but they have made a film you should see."
The New York Times A.O. Scott, meanwhile, praised the film as "brilliantly truthful." Scott writes: "The history of repression, protest and reform did not just happen on the abstract plane of activism and politics, but also in the lives of ordinary families, who were always doing more than just suffering and struggling. The genius of The Butler lies in the sly and self-assured way it connects public affairs to private experience. "
In the U.K, The Guardian critic Katey Rich gave the film two out of five stars, writing: "A great film about the American civil rights movement is way overdue. The Butler, overwhelmed by flash and good intentions, doesn't even come close."
New York magazine critic David Edelstein deemed the Weinstein Co. title "crudely powerful." He writes that the director "works in elegiac, Oscar-bait mode, but the actors find ways to stay raw. As Cecil, Whitaker stands outside himself. He's so finely tuned that you can see -- or at least intuit -- the brain working (and heart breaking) under his mask." Oprah Winfrey "manages to go back in time and capture the self-loathing of a woman with no power."
The Chicago Tribune's critic Michael Phillips awarded the film two and a half out of five stars and noted the title's Forrest Gump moments. "It's up to the steady and astute performance by Forest Whitaker to keep The Butler from caving in under its own Forrest Gump sponge-of-history tendencies." Whitaker, he writes, is "first-rate in the part."
The film, which was shot in New Orleans, gets a tentative thumbs up from Mike Scott, the film critic at The Times-Picayune. "For all of its Oscar-bait hallmarks -- from its pedigreed cast to its civil rights themes -- Daniels' unevenly paced film has its share of narrative missteps," Scott writes."In addition, there's the fact that Daniels is the type of filmmaker who is more inclined to slap audiences in the face with his message … than he is to traffic in anything resembling subtlety."

Riverview High rising senior quarterback Richie James accounted for five touchdowns to help lead the Rams to a 42-35 victory over Southeast in their spring game May 24.
James, who converted from wide receiver, completed all five of his passes for 94 yards and two touchdowns. He also racked up 173 yards on the ground and scored three touchdowns on runs of 46, 18 and 59 yards.
My last touchdown was special. I was running backwards and fumbled the ball. I kind of dropped the ball, so I had to maneuver left and right and then get (past people) down the field. It was a long run, too.
I knew I was going to have to step up. If it helps my team, then I would rather be a quarterback. Everyone looks up to you to make plays and be the leader of the team.
When you're the quarterback, you have to know every play, every assignment and know what everyone else is doing. You have to make all of the reads. Basically, you control the game.
I've been working hard during practice all the time. I've been working to transition from wide receiver to quarterback and it just paid off. At receiver, you're reading defenses and at quarterback you have to read them, too. I wouldn't say it's the same exact way, but it's the same category of reading.
Stats don't really matter to me. I want to take this team to states. I have to keep doing the little things and work hard in the weight room and on the practice field. I want to take this team to the next level.
I look up to coach Jim Anderson. He's the defensive backs coach and my track coach. He's a great man and a great leader. He's been around me since freshman year, and he teaches everyone how to do things the right way. He makes you want to do well. You don't really have a choice because you don't want to make him mad. You want to keep coach Anderson positive.

Monday November 2 2009 – 3:50pm Eastern – Toronto, ON
Alright … I planned on writing today … but life got busy. Then, before I knew it, show-time was approaching for "The Game Plan" and I didn't have a chance to get the blog done.
But what better way to 'make up' for missing my written word … then chatting with THE COACH, Jack Armstrong.
Listen in on our 10-minute chat RE: the Raptors defensive deficiencies over the past two games — both losses (to Memphis and Orlando).
And feel free to get in on the conversation during the COMMENTS section below.
E. Smith
5 Responses to "Audio Blog – Raps D"
Why didn't Marco play alot of minutes? And I don't get why Jay didn't get Antoine Wright play more minutes! He is a game changer for the Raptors in terms of Defense in my opinion!
- Raps Fan -
Raps Fan: Wright played 25 minutes, so he had plenty of oportunity to impact the game, which he did.
Eric: Tell the Coach that the days of likes of Gary Payton locking down their counterparts are gone. He got a little overexcited during the broadcast.
I'll never forget last year's Celtic/Bulls series where Rondo and Rose scored at will on each other. It's only when both teams improved on the help defence that either player was slowed down.
The criticism of Jose is over-excessive in my opinion.
- Michel G -
Hey Eric, you want to attract a lot of fan response to your next blog???
The Raps are looking to honour Vince Carter the next time Orlando is in town (Nove 22) as part of th club's 15th Anniversary celebrations.
Colangelo says "Most of the people that he had problems with here (in TO) are gone."
Now I don't know which players had the most problem with VC and it's a bit overblown every time he comes to town but the fact remains that he was a traitor, a quitter and a cancer before he left town in a trade for a bag of hammers.
He willfully sabotaged our season, this team for a considerable term, his trade value and his reputation.
This overshadows or at least diminishes much of his great early contributions.
I would have much prefered to see him continue to languish in NJ this year but injured half the year in Orlando will have to do.
-not bitter much??? :-)"Part of this team's history" or not, he is wholly undeserving of any honour at the Air Canada Centre; in the opinion of this humble fan.
- Gary -
Whats the status on Reggie??
- Raps Fan -
When did this become a Bash Vince Carter forum???
For all the overblown hoopla surrounding VC, all the "superstar" ever helped bring to the city of Toronto was ONE stinkin' playoff win.
Heck, that doesn't even classify as a playoff "run"!!
I will never forget the whining, crying, whimpering to Mama…that look of desperation he always had on his face when he looked up at the audience — while he looked at the boo-boo on his knee…
I thought this team had only positive times ahead of it when Carter was finally banished. Unfortunately, nothing has improved. It's just stayed exactly the same.

I've posted several articles about what polls are saying and what it may mean for the election this fall. A poll out in early June showed "growing opposition" to the constitutional amendment.
The poll results, conducted by Public Policy Polling (PPP), showed 49 percent of Minnesota voters oppose the amendment, while 43 percent support it. While this is good news, I do have some question around how accurate these results may be (just four months ago in the same poll, 44 percent were against the amendment, while 48 percent were in support – that's almost a swap in a very short time).
Polls oftentimes are misleading going into a vote on this topic. Prop 8 in California was supposed to "lose decisively" yet voters passed it with a 52-48 margin. Hence, while I'm encouraged by this news (as we all should be), it is much too soon to celebrate. Let's put some additional spread between those numbers in the next poll by having the conversation, talking to friends and co-workers and helping family members understand that this is a civil rights issue about equality.
Come on Minnesota, I know you're up for it!
