"This design is so adorable and danty. It matches our invitations and just ties our whole princess them together. I've ordered from tiny prints on many occassions and have never been disappointed. I was wondering however, is it possible to have my thank you message printed on the back from you as well?"
"We haven't used these as yet, but I'm 100 % sure that we will be envied :) I'm satisfied with the quality of the paper. The design is so simple but very elegant at the same time. Thanks as always Tiny Prints."
"I was really happy with my Thank you cards. I went with the whimsical font. The card was a hit! I used it for my new baby girl, but my other three are clamoring for their own now!"
"We chose this card as the thank you notes for our daughter's princess-themed birthday party. We were thrilled with the way they turned out. They are on very high quality paper & the design is simple & sweet. Love them!"
"Love love love all your designs. I live in the Netherlands and I like to be original. So, ordering with Tiny Prints gave me the sweetest and most original cards ever! All my friends love it. And so great that you send to Europe. And so fast!"

When I import a pdf file made with InDesign into Quark some of the type disappears when printing. I can see it on the screen but it does not appear on the printed page. It will be in the middle of a paragraph just one line. Not a whole sentence or paragraph but one line at various points on the page.
The type that's dropping out seems to be a custom encoded subset of a Type 1 Futura font. Quark might not be able to read the custom encoding, though there is also some othe custom encoded text in the Ventures ad and somewhere else I wasn't able to spot.
Can I ask Why you are putting a full page PDF into Quark like this? The page seems to be complete on its own....
It's too time consuming to open every file and covert it when you don't know if the file will be a problem. We run a hundred files like this every week and never know if one will be a problem. We cannot open them in Illustrator since we often don't have all the fonts in our system that are in the file. On our own files we use eps but these are submitted files from customers and converting them all to eps is tedious and the files become very large. I have optimized files in the past but that has created other problems in the past.
If there is some setting I can have the customer change on his end I would be up to suggesting it to them.
The font is the same throughout that paragraph.
I stopped using Quark at version 6, but using it to impose PDFs like this used to be a recipe for disaster. That particular PDF is not flattened, and that may certainly be a factor. I'd take Rob's suggestion and convert it to X-1a and see if it helps, and ask your clients to send you PDF/X-1a in the future. I'd also suggest that if you do a lot of this, and it seems like you do, something like Quite Imposing, which is an acrobat plugin, would be a good investment.
I'm sorry Bob. you're right from here to China. Please forgiveme.
i only wanted to help solving a specific problem with a specific solution, because is very frustrating when something is not working.
there is a latin-american point of view of what assistance, or support are, that prays "we have to do it with the tools we have" (in spanish "lo atamos con alambre" = "tie it with wire" (?) approx) reasons are short budgets, or too much beaurocracy, that makes the optimal solution never cames o cames toooooo late, and needs of quick responses, sometimes the "wire" is the only solution. Unfortunately, after years of dealing with problems, this kind of thinking starts to take your entire brain.
The basic version is $475 US, so I find it hard to believe it wouldn't pay for itself in a couple of weeks.

Posted by:
at 2/1/2013 6:14 PM
More On:
Bullet Run
Sony Online Entertainment
Free To Play games I think are a great thing but of course there is always that fear that the game could shut down like MMORPG's. Unfortunately this seems to be the case with SOE's futuristic death sport
Bullet Run

Thankfully all players with platinum memberships will receive refunds for their remaining time with the game. Players will be able to play the game until the grand finale of the game on March 8th 2013. .
Its always sad to see a company have to shut down a game as it seems that all their hard work will will be wiped from existence soon. Needless to say the loyal fanbase on the official forums are incredibly upset.
As someone that plays MMORPG's and pays real money in Free To Play games.. this is a fear I live with everyday.
The full press release and FAQ can be found below
Dear Bullet Run Contestant,
After much review and consideration, Acony Games and Sony Online Entertainment (SOE) have mutually made the decision to discontinue development on the free-to-play FPS game, Bullet Run.

All membership billing for the game will end on February 1, 2013, and players with platinum memberships will receive prorated refunds for their remaining time. Players with active memberships as of February 1 will be able to continue playing as platinum members until the game is shut down on March 8th. Below is the Bullet Run Sunset FAQ.

The closest I ever got to a 300 was starting with 8 straight Xs. That's nerve wracking as all hell.
Once saw a guy, and this was bittersweet, hit a 299 (sparing on his 11th ball). It was epic. We were in a league that we so appropriately named ourselves the BS league and he was easily the best bowler. No problem with that it's just that he knew he was and he made sure eveyone knew it.
There were more smiles on people's faces than there were "Oh, I'm sorry, man, good game!"
The league I bowl in there is a 300 game probably every other week, lots of good bowlers.
A little over a year ago I went bowling with 2 of my friends and we got on a lane and I look at the lane next to me and see a different friends dad on the lane next to us so since I knew him very well I was talking to him while we were bowling and he starts a new game and starts getting strikes and so me and my friends are watching him bowl and he suddenly after a while has a perfect game going into the 10th frame and he gets a strike so he was 2 strikes away from a 300 and his next roll he rolled perfectly but only ended up with a 9 so he didn't get his perfect game which sucked but it was cool to watch a close to perfect game.
I am going bowling tomorrow. Well, after midnight so technically today. Cant wait. Anyone who goes bowling feel free to post your scores in here. I will post mine after I'm done.
I go to a thing called Redpin occasionally where you bowl to win money. A strike with a colored headpin is 3/4/5(depends on color). There are other combos(colored 7/10 pins) in which if you stike you win 10$ and so on.
You can also buy raffle tickets and if your name gets called and you strike you win 10$. Then you have sureshot when everyone is done which is another raffle. Depends on how many people are there but usually if you get called and strike you win 25+. The cover charge is 20 and usually I buy 10$ on raffle rickets and 5$ in sureshot tickets. Out of that 35 my best is walking home with 70 so thats 45 in profit. A good way to kill a night
Interesting format. Seems like a fairly easy way to make money.

That does sounds kind of cool actually.
I was supposed to go bowling yesterday but didn't get a chance to so I am going later today. Pretty excited.
So bowled Saturday night 1st week and was a little rusty. I bowled a 179, 178, 211. I only threw 6 games over the summer. I was covering my spares, I was just erractic in the pocket couldnt stay consistent. Would hit head pin high one frame then light the next frame. As the night went on though I regrouped and ended up bowling average the last game. We won 2 out of 3 and series so all is good.
^Pretty good scores.
I bowled yesterday. Bowled 4 games. My scores in order were: 144, 172, 151, 157. Pretty solid day for me since my average is around 140-150 usually.
So my bowling league that I had been in for 4 years started yesterday and due to money constraints I am unable to participate in it (was actually in 2 last year).
I'm in that same boat. I want to be able to do the couples league we bowl in for sure but that might not even happen. We are pushing our men's league to start in October and do a shorter season so that might buy me some time to get back in it.
Yeah, I asked about leagues out here the other day. Very expensive. Don't think I can afford it right now. So sad.
The men's league I'm in is $10 per night. $8 for bowling and then $2 goes into the prize money and banquet fund. Each team (3 man) can have up to 4 bowlers at the banquet. We usually get about 25 bucks a person back plus a free meal so its not too bad for a night of fun. I have a little extra incentive as league treasurer and secretary (since I'm literally the only computer literate person in the league) and those positions are paid for by the team sponsors, which would pay for my bowling throughout the year. Only problem I have is without an income I can't pay for beer frames and other things like poker during bowling.
Speaking of poker, the version we play is you get 2 cards on a strike and 1 on a spare. If you miss a spare, someone playing picks a card from your hand. You also cannot hold more than 5 cards at a time and the decks have jokers. Usually both teams play the same game since we have 3 person teams so thats up to 6 hands depending on who plays. We each put in a buck and highest hand takes the pot after each game. Anyone else do this that bowls league?

The Gift Tax
If you give people a lot of money or property, you might have to pay a federal gift tax. But most gifts are not subject to the gift tax. For instance, you can give up to the annual exclusion amount ($14,000 in 2013) to any number of people every year, without facing any gift taxes. Recipients generally never owe income tax on the gifts.
In addition to the annual gift amount, your can give a total of up to $5.25 million starting in 2013 in your lifetime before you start owing the gift tax. If you give $16,000 each to ten people in 2013, for example, you'd use up $20,000 of your $5.25 million lifetime tax-free limit—ten times the $2,000 by which your $16,000 gifts exceed the $14,000 per-person annual gift-free amount for 2013.
The federal gift tax exists for one reason: to prevent citizens from avoiding the federal estate tax by giving away their money before they die.
The gift tax is perhaps the most misunderstood of all taxes. When it comes into play, this tax is owed by the giver of the gift, not the recipient. You probably have never paid it and probably will never have to. The law completely ignores gifts of up to $14,000 per person, per year, that you give to any number of individuals. (You and your spouse together can give up to $28,000 per person, per year to any number of individuals.)
If you have 1,000 friends on whom you wish to bestow $14,000 each, you can give away $14 million a year without even having to fill out a federal gift-tax form. That $14 million would be out of your estate for good. But if you made the $14 million in bequests via your will, the money would be part of your taxable estate and, depending on when you died, might trigger a large estate tax bill.
Your estate is the total value of all of your assets, less any debts, at the time you die. The new rules for 2013 will tax estates over $5.25 million at rates as high as 40%. That $5.25 million is an exclusion meaning the first $5.25 million of your estate does not get taxed.
So why not give all of your property to your heirs before you die and avoid any estate tax that might apply? Clever, but the government is ahead of you. As noted above, you can move a lot of money out of your estate using the annual gift tax exclusion. Go beyond that, though, and you begin to eat into the exclusion that offsets the bill on the first $5.25 million of lifetime gifts. Go beyond the $5.25 million and you'll have to pay the gift tax—at rates that mirror the individual income tax, up to 40% in 2013.
As you consider making gifts, keep in mind that very different rules determine the tax basis of property someone receives by gift versus receives by inheritance. For example, if your son inherits your property, his tax basis would be the fair market value of the property on the date you die. That means all appreciation during your lifetime becomes tax-free.
However, if he receives the property as a gift from you, his tax basis is whatever your tax basis was. That means he'll owe tax on appreciation during your life, just like you would have if you sold the asset yourself. The rule that "steps up" basis to date of death value for inherited assets saves heirs billions of dollars every year.
Your mother has a house with a tax basis of $60,000. The fair market value of the house is now $300,000. If your mother gives you the house as a gift, your tax basis would be $60,000. If you inherited the house after your mother's death in 2013, the tax basis would be $300,000, its fair market value on the date of her death. What difference does this make? If you sell the house for $310,000 shortly after you got it:
- Your gain on the sale is $250,000 ($310,000 minus $60,000) if you got the house as a gift.
- Your gain on the sale is $10,000 ($310,000 minus $300,000) if you got the house as an inheritance.
For tax purposes, a gift is a transfer of property for less than its full value. In other words, if you aren't paid back, at least not fully, it's a gift.
In 2013, you can give a lifetime total of $5.25 million in taxable gifts (that exceed the annual tax-free limit) without triggering the gift tax. Beyond the $5.25 million level, you would actually have to pay the gift tax.
Here are some gifts that are not considered "taxable gifts" and, therefore, do not count as part of your $5.25 million lifetime total.
- Present-interest gift of $14,000 in 2013. "Present-interest" means that the person receiving the gift has an unrestricted right to use or enjoy the gift immediately. In 2013 you could give amounts up to $14,000 to each person, gifting as many different people as you want, without triggering the gift tax.
- Charitable gifts
- Gifts to a spouse who is a U.S. citizen. Gifts to foreign spouses are subject to an annual limit of $143,000 in 2013. This amount is indexed for inflation and can change each year.
- Gifts for educational expenses. To qualify for the unlimited exclusion for qualified education expenses, you must make a direct payment to the educational institution for tuition only. Books, supplies and living expenses do not qualify. If you want to pay for books, supplies and living expenses in addition to the unlimited education exclusion, you can make a 2013 gift of $14,000 to the student under the annual gift exclusion.
Example: In 2013, an uncle who wants to help his nephew attend medical school sends the school $16,000 for a year's tuition. He also sends his nephew $14,000 for books, supplies and other expenses. Neither payment is reportable for gift tax purposes. If the uncle had sent the nephew $30,000 and the nephew had paid the school, the uncle would have made a reportable (but maybe not taxable) gift in the amount of $16,000 ($30,000 less the annual exclusion of $14,000) which would have reduced his $5.25 million lifetime exclusion by $16,000.
The gift tax is only due when the entire $5.25 million lifetime gift tax amount has been surpassed.
Payments to 529 state tuition plans are gifts, so you can exclude up to the annual $14,000 amount. In fact, you can give up to $70,000 in one year, using up five year's worth of the exclusion, if you agree not to make another gift to the same person in the following four years.
Example: A grandmother contributes $70,000 to a qualified state tuition program for her grandchild in 2013. She decides to have this donation qualify for the annual gift exclusion for the next five years, and thus avoids using a portion of her $5.25 million gift tax exemption.
- Gifts of medical expenses. Medical payments must be paid directly to the person providing the care in order to qualify for the unlimited exclusion. Qualifying medical expenses include:
- Diagnosis and treatment of disease
- Procedures affecting a structure or function of the body
- Transportation primarily for medical care
- Medical insurance, including long-term care insurance
In addition to these gifts that are not taxable, there are some transactions that are not considered gifts and, therefore, are definitely not taxable gifts.
- Adding a joint tenant to a bank or brokerage account or to a U.S. Savings Bond. This is not considered to be a gift until the new joint tenant withdraws funds. On the other hand, if you purchased a security in the names of the joint owners, rather than holding it in street name by the brokerage firm, the transaction would count as a gift.
- Making a bona fide business transaction. Even if you later find out that you paid more than the item was worth based on its fair market value, the transaction is not a gift; just a bad business decision.
The following gifts are considered to be taxable gifts when they exceed the annual gift exclusion amount of $14,000 in 2013. Remember, taxable gifts count as part of the $5.25 million in 2013 you are allowed to give away during your lifetime, before you must pay the gift tax.
- Checks. The gift of a check is effective on the date the donor gives the check to the recipient. The donor must still be alive when the donor's bank pays the check. This rule prevents people from making "deathbed gifts" to avoid estate taxes.
- Adding a joint tenant to real estate. This transaction becomes a taxable gift if the new joint tenant has the right under state law to sever his interest in the joint tenancy and receive half of the property. Note that the recipient only needs to have the right to do so for the transaction to be considered a gift.
- Loaning $10,000 or more at less than the market rate of interest. The value of the gift is based on the difference between the interest rate charged and the applicable federal rate. Applicable federal rates are revised monthly. This rule does not apply to loans of $10,000 or less.
- Canceling indebtedness
- Making a payment owed by someone else. This is a gift to the debtor.
- Making a gift as an individual to a corporation. Such a donation is considered to be a gift to the individual shareholders of the corporation unless there is a valid business reason for the gift. Such a donation is not a present-interest gift, and thus does not qualify for the annual per person per year exclusion.
Example: A son owns a corporation worth $100,000. His father wants to help his son and gives the corporation $1 million in exchange for a 1 percent interest in the company. This is a taxable gift from father to son in the amount of $1 million less the value of one percent of the company.
- A gift of foreign real estate from a U.S. citizen. For example, if a U.S. citizen gives 100 acres he owns in Mexico to someone (whether or not the recipient is a U.S. citizen), it is subject to the gift tax rules if the land is worth more than $14,000.
- Giving real or tangible property located in the United States. This is subject to the gift tax rules, even if the donor and the recipient are not U.S. citizens or residents. Nonresident aliens who give real or tangible property located in the United States are allowed the $14,000 annual present-interest gift exclusion and unlimited marital deduction to U.S. citizen spouses, but are not allowed the $5.25 million lifetime gift tax exemption.
If you give an amount up to $14,000 to each child each year, your gifts do not count toward the $5.25 million of gifts you are allowed to give in a lifetime before triggering the gift tax. But what counts as a gift to a minor?
- Gifts made outright to the minor
- Gifts made through a custodial account such as that under the Uniform Gifts to Minors Act (UGMA), the Revised Uniform Gifts to Minors Act, or the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act (UTMA)
Note: One disadvantage of using custodial accounts is that the minor must receive the funds at maturity, as defined by state law (generally age 18 or 21), regardless of your wishes.
A parent's support payments for a minor are not gifts if they are required as part of a legal obligation. They can be considered a gift if the payments are not legally required.
Example: A father pays for the living expenses of his adult daughter who is living in New York City trying to start a new career. These payments are considered a taxable gift if they exceed $14,000 during 2013. However, if his daughter were 17, the support payments would be considered part of his legal obligation to support her and, therefore, would not be considered gifts.
Giving a gift may earn you more than gratitude:
- Reduced estate taxes. Moving money out of your estate via lifetime gifts can pay off even if those gifts trigger the gift tax. How? By removing future appreciation on the asset from your estate. Say, for example, that you give your daughter real estate worth $5,264,000, using up your $14,000 exclusion and your entire $5,250,000 2013 lifetime gift exclusion. If the property is worth $7,014,000 when you die, that's $1,750,000 less to be taxed in your estate.
- Reduced income taxes. If you give property that has a low tax basis (such as a rental house that has depreciated way below its fair market value), or property that generates a lot of taxable income, you may reduce income taxes paid within a family by shifting these assets to family members in lower tax brackets.
- Teaching your family to manage wealth. Giving family members assets now allows you to monitor their ability to handle their future inheritance.
- Reduces your net worth. You need to keep enough assets to care for yourself throughout a long or extended retirement or illness.
- The Kiddie Tax. Giving funds to children may subject them to the Kiddie Tax, which applies the parents' tax rates to investment earnings of their children that exceed a certain amount. For 2013, the Kiddie Tax applies to investment income exceeding $2,000 for a child under age 19.
If you make a taxable gift, you must file Form 709: U.S. Gift (and Generation-Skipping Transfer) Tax Return, which is due April 15 of the following year. Even if you do not owe a gift tax because you have not reached the $5.25 million limit, you are still required to file this form if you made a gift that exceeds the $14,000 annual gift tax exclusion level. The IRS needs to keep a running tab of your lifetime exemption.
Example 1
In 2013, you give your son $15,000 to help him afford the down payment on his first house. This is a gift, not a loan. You must file a gift tax return and report that you used $1,000 ($15,000 minus the $14,000 annual exclusion) of your $5.25 million lifetime exemption.
Example 2
Same facts as above, except that you give your son $13,000 and your daughter-in-law $2,000 to help with the down payment on a house. Both gifts qualify for the annual exclusion. You do not need to file a gift tax return.
Example 3
Same facts in Example 1, but your spouse agrees to "split" the gift—basically this means he or she agrees to let you use part of his or her exclusion for the year. One spouse, for example, could give $28,000 to his son without triggering the gift tax if the other spouse agrees not to give the son any gift that year. Although no tax is due in this situation, the first spouse would be required to file a gift tax return indicating that the second spouse had agreed to split the gift.
Only individuals file Form 709: U. S. Gift (and Generation-Skipping Transfer) Tax Return—there's no joint gift tax form. If a both spouses each make a taxable gift, each spouse has to file a Form 709.
On a gift tax return you report the fair market value of the gift on the date of the transfer, your tax basis (as donor) and the identity of the recipient. You should attach supplemental documents that support the valuation of the gift, such as financial statements in the case of a gift of stock in a closely-held corporation or appraisals for real estate.
If you sell property or family heirlooms to your child for full fair market value, you don't have to file a gift tax return. But you may want to file one anyway to cover yourself in case the IRS later claims that the property was undervalued, and that the transaction was really a partial gift. Filing Form 709 begins the three-year statute of limitations for examination of the return. If you do not file a gift tax return, the IRS could question the valuation of the property at any time in the future.
For more information on the gift tax, see IRS Publication 950: Introduction to Estate and Gift Taxes.

Image Loader Powered by Apache Camel
(The application has been improved and moved to www.livephotostream.com read about the move here)
This is a very short post about a very simple application way back during the London 2012 Olympics and based on Apache Camel examples, I've created an application that displays twitter images related to the Olympics in real time. It listens for tweets containing images, filters out duplicates, and sends the images to the browser using websockets every 5 seconds. See it live running on amazon micro instance or check it out from my github account.
This is an end-to-end push application: once a user pushes an image to twitter, twitter pushes the image to the camel application, and then the camel application pushes the image to all the clients. It is built using only "free stuff": Twitter's free streaming API, Apache Camel framework, Amazon's free micro instance and done during my free time. Here is the essence:
public void configure() throws Exception { from("twitter://streaming/filter?type=event&keywords=" + searchTerm) .to("log:tweetStream?level=INFO&groupInterval=60000&groupDelay=60000&groupActiveOnly=false") .process(new ImageExtractor()) .process(new Statistics()) .filter(body().isInstanceOf(Tweet.class)) .idempotentConsumer(header(UNIQUE_IMAGE_URL), MemoryIdempotentRepository.memoryIdempotentRepository(10000)) .to("log:imageStream?level=INFO&groupInterval=60000&groupDelay=60000&groupActiveOnly=false") .throttle(1).timePeriodMillis(5000).asyncDelayed().callerRunsWhenRejected(false) .marshal().json(JsonLibrary.Jackson) .to("websocket:camelympics?sendToAll=true"); }
Line by line explanation
Twitter pushes tweets containing the #Olympics and #London2012 tags to the app:from("twitter://streaming/filter?type=event&keywords=" + searchTerm)Log statistical information about the number of messages every minute. Not visible the users:
.to("log:tweetStream?level=INFO&groupInterval=60000&groupDelay=60000&groupActiveOnly=false")Extract images from the tweets which has media associated with:
.process(new ImageExtractor())Put the current number of tweets and images in the message:
.process(new Statistics())Filter out all the tweets which doesn't contain images:
.filter(body().isInstanceOf(Tweet.class))Filter out duplicated images, identified by their url:
.idempotentConsumer(header(UNIQUE_IMAGE_URL), MemoryIdempotentRepository.memoryIdempotentRepository(10000))Log again, the messages which reached this far in the route:
.to("log:imageStream?level=INFO&groupInterval=60000&groupDelay=60000&groupActiveOnly=false")Let images go with 5 seconds difference, so the user can enjoy it. Also important - don't block the twitter listener by using callerRunsWhenRejected if the image buffer fills up, Twitter will block you:
.throttle(1).timePeriodMillis(5000).asyncDelayed().callerRunsWhenRejected(false)Serialize into json:
.marshal().json(JsonLibrary.Jackson)Push it to the users:
.to("websocket:camelympics?sendToAll=true");The application can be run also locally and allows filtering images not only for the Olympics but for any keywords passed as argument. Don't forget to use your own twitter oath tokens when using locally though.
Enjoy the Olympics.

i recently acquired two pygmy goats. they are fun, i feed them corn and alfalfa hay. they don't eat too much.
I've got a bunch of them I run with my cattle. The truest saying I've heard about goats is "If your fence won't hold water, it won't hold a goat"

goatsHi everyone
well was at a farm to pick out a few goats picked two pygmy and 1 pygmy/boar goat. am trying to put up a fence got a ok deal on chainlink wanted to know what you all thought i am using steel pipe post mostly but 2 corners are right by a tree was thinking about getting the fence to the tree and taking a piece of pressure treated 2x4 and lag bolting to the tree from the inside of the fence so the goats couldn't push the fence out figured it would be very stong the trees are really big. just wondering what you guys thought thanks talk soon Kevin oh ya bringing home the goats in a week or two they are very young yet Kevin's 49er
I use tree's whenever possible, because I am cheap and poor. But I will tell you that it always causes me problems that I have to fix later. It also always cost more in the long run to fix the problem from the cheap way out.

LSU likes to run the ball first on offense. Florida likes to run the ball first on offense. Other than he potential for the first sub-3 hour CBS SEC telecast ever (commercials on commercials on commercials), here's what that means for Saturday.
To cut straight to the chase, the Tigers are likely to find success on the ground throughout the game. As I discussed yesterday, Florida's defense is great against the pass but doesn't rank as highly against the run. You know how some short cornerbacks are said to play taller than they are? Well, Florida's defensive line plays smaller than it actually is in this respect. LSU does its best work on first down, gaining 6.55 yards per carry. The line has had some issues with motivation at times, but that shouldn't be a problem this weekend. The running attack doesn't seem to be quite as effective this year as last year, but it's still quite good.
I expect this side of the battle to be an intense one throughout. LSU often wears down opposing defenses by employing four running backs. Florida has been keeping a large rotation on its defensive line this year to try to keep guys fresh in the second half. It certainly has worked well for the Gators thus far, as they're allowing 1.2 fewer yards per carry in the second half than they do in the first half. However LSU's first and second half rushing attacks are separated by just 0.42 yards per carry, so I am skeptical of UF's ability to outlast the Tigers on conditioning and rotations alone. Based on what I've seen of the Gators' backup D-line, LSU's running backs will have the opportunity to score some points in the first half against it to possibly compensate for any second half slowdowns.
On the other side, Florida's rushing attack presents a problem that LSU hasn't had to deal with much: a quarterback who can move. Both Jeff Driskel and Trey Burton have had a lot of success running the ball when called upon to do so, and they could very well be the key to the Gators' running game on Saturday.
I say that because LSU hasn't done all that well against people taking the snap and running it this year. I didn't go through LSU's defense against Idaho, but against the other four opponents, the Tigers had a grand total of one tackle for loss (versus North Texas) on plays with a designed quarterback run or someone else taking a direct snap and running. They didn't face many of those situations, as only Auburn did much of that, but let's take a closer look at that particular Tigers vs. Tigers matchup.
Kiehl Frazier can move around, but he had only two designed runs. The first went for two yards before he fumbled, and the second went for four. Onterio McCalebb also took a direct snap and ran for nine yards on the play. Further, Auburn put in another mobile QB, backup Jonathan Wallace, for six plays that were all runs. He ran it for four, five, and six yards, respectively on his three carries. He also gave the ball away for plays of -7, 20, and eight yards. Wallace's six plays accounted for 35 percent of the Tigers' net rushing yards (not including sacks), but only 23 percent of their runs. Throw in Frazier's runs and McCalebb's direct snap and that's 49.5 percent of AU's rushing yards on only 34.6 percent of its rushing plays. The Plainsmen had 5.67 yards per carry on those plays versus 3.06 yards per carry on the others. LSU was much better at stopping runs when the guy taking the snap was no threat to carry the ball.
Another key to the game will be seeing just how much Florida tries to get third down conversions with runs. Quite frankly, they stink at it:
Team | 3rd Down % | 3D% Rushing | Difference |
Arkansas | 32.4% | 47.4% | 15.0% |
Kentucky | 44.3% | 54.5% | 10.3% |
Mississippi | 51.5% | 55.6% | 4.1% |
Auburn | 28.0% | 29.2% | 1.2% |
Alabama | 49.2% | 50.0% | 0.8% |
Tennessee | 42.9% | 42.1% | -0.8% |
Vanderbilt | 23.2% | 21.2% | -2.0% |
South Carolina | 46.2% | 43.2% | -2.9% |
Missouri | 27.4% | 22.6% | -4.8% |
Georgia | 46.8% | 40.7% | -6.0% |
Texas A&M | 46.7% | 40.0% | -6.7% |
Mississippi State | 35.3% | 25.0% | -10.3% |
Florida | 39.7% | 29.0% | -10.6% |
LSU is, if anything, slightly better at picking up third downs by rushing that they are overall. No one in the conference is worse than Florida, however, when it comes to getting conversions by rushing. The Gators are significantly worse with the run than their overall rate.
Making things potentially worse is the instability at left tackle for Florida. Senior Xavier Nixon has been having trouble holding off true freshman D.J. Humphries for the job. Will Muschamp won't say who is going to start this weekend, only stating that whoever practices better will go. LSU's defensive line straight up overpowered Florida's offensive line all throughout last year's game, and if there's a weak link in the chain, we could end up seeing a repeat performance.
Both of these teams want to run the ball to win. The first team to 30 passes loses. LSU's running game is probably the favorite on paper in this regard, but if Florida can loosen things up with Driskel and Burton running it, then the Gators could very well spring the upset by outrushing the Tigers.

Description: | Partially motivated by Larry Summer's "nature versus nuture" speculation, this report was written by the Committee on Maximizing the Potential of Women in Academic Science and Engineering and commissioned by the Committee on Science, Engineering, and Public Policy (COSEP). The website provides free online viewing of the report, along with a webcase and other documentation. The hard copy and compiled PDF requires purchase. From the press release: Women face barriers to hiring and promotion in research universities in many fields of science and engineering -- a situation that deprives the United States of an important source of talent as the country faces increasingly stiff global competition in higher education, science and technology, and the marketplace. Eliminating gender bias in universities requires immediate, overarching reform and decisive action by university administrators, professional societies, government agencies, and Congress. "Women are capable of contributing more to the nation's science and engineering research enterprise, but bias and outmoded practices governing academic success impede their progress almost every step of the way," said Donna E. Shalala, president of the University of Miami, former secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and chair of the committee that wrote the report. "Fundamental changes in the culture and opportunities at America's research universities are urgently needed. The United States should enhance its talent pool by making the most of its entire population." The following are some of the committee's key findings that underscore its call to action: (1) Studies have not found any significant biological differences between men and women in performing science and mathematics that can account for the lower representation of women in academic faculty and leadership positions in S&T fields. (2) Compared with men, women faculty members are generally paid less and promoted more slowly, receive fewer honors, and hold fewer leadership positions. These discrepancies do not appear to be based on productivity, the significance of their work, or any other performance measures, the report says. (3) Measures of success underlying performance-evaluation systems are often arbitrary and frequently applied in ways that place women at a disadvantage. "Assertiveness," for example, may be viewed as a socially unacceptable trait for women but suitable for men. Also, structural constraints and expectations built into academic institutions assume that faculty members have substantial support from their spouses.

Because JUVÉDERM® XC is a simple, nonsurgical wrinkle treatment*, there is minimal recovery or downtime (and the results are instant!). So you can make an appointment to stop by your healthcare professional's office for treatment on the way home from work or the gym, or even while the kids are at soccer practice—and get right back to your daily routine. Here's what to expect when you visit your healthcare professional's office for treatment.
(Please note that although this experience is typical, the routine at your healthcare professional's office may be different.)
- Some doctors recommend that you avoid any medications that can prolong bleeding, such as aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs), for at least a week prior to receiving the treatment for wrinkles in order to reduce the risk of bruising and bleeding at the injection site. Ask your healthcare professional what he or she recommends.
- If this is your first visit, your healthcare professional will ask about your medical history, including any allergies you may have or medications you may take, and will tell you more about treatment with JUVÉDERM® XC injectable gel.
If your physician determines that JUVÉDERM® XC is right for you, he or she will then examine the soft tissue of your face to assess the depth of wrinkles and folds to determine your treatment for wrinkles. JUVÉDERM® XC is indicated for correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, (such as nasolabial folds). JUVÉDERM® XC injectable gel is available in two formulations—JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC for versatility in contouring and volumizing facial wrinkles and folds in the skin, and JUVÉDERM® Ultra Plus XC, a robust formulation for volumizing and correcting deeper folds and wrinkles in the skin. This allows your healthcare professional to better tailor treatment to your unique skin volume needs. They may even take pre-treatment photographs so you can see the difference after receiving the treatment!
Anesthetic may not be needed prior to treatment since JUVÉDERM® XC is specially formulated with lidocaine (a type of anesthetic) to improve comfort during treatment.† 1 Your physician may also elect to use a topical anesthetic to numb the treatment area before the injections. Your healthcare professional will then ease the JUVÉDERM® XC under your skin (where wrinkles and folds occur) to replace lost skin volume. Following the injection, your healthcare professional may gently massage the treated areas. The procedure is quick and easy and the results are instant! The injection itself usually takes only about 15 minutes.
† Compared to the non-lidocaine JUVÉDERM® formulation.

Please see JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC and JUVÉDERM® Ultra Plus XC Patient Safety Information for more information.
You should avoid the following for at least 24 hours after treatment:
You may experience pain, tenderness, temporary redness, swelling, bruising, firmness, and bumps at the injection sites. Studies have shown that these are usually mild to moderate in nature and clear up on their own in 7 days or less1. If you experience swelling at the injection site, you can apply an ice pack for a brief period. Be sure to report any redness and/or visible swelling that last for more than a few days (or any other symptoms that cause you concern) after receiving treatment to your healthcare professional and/or contact Allergan Product Support at 1-877-345-5372. Your healthcare professional will tell you when makeup may be applied after your wrinkle treatment.

Please see JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC and JUVÉDERM® Ultra Plus XC Patient Safety Information for more information.
You should see an immediate improvement in the treatment areas. Most patients need one injectable dermal filler treatment to achieve optimal wrinkle smoothing and improve skin volume. Just one treatment with JUVÉDERM® XC can smooth away your wrinkles for up to 1 year! ∆ δ 1, 2 However, results from injectable dermal fillers may vary and correction is temporary. Supplemental "touch up" treatments may be required to achieve and maintain optimal correction of your wrinkles and folds.
Δ Most subjects acquired optimal correction at initial treatment. Some subjects required up to 2 touch-ups to achieve optimal correction.
δ This includes all JUVÉDERM® injectable gel formulations.

Voice from my couch on a lazy day of too much football: --OU is good. We are OK. Their semi-pro atheletes are better than our student atheletes. --In about 4 games today, I could swear that Dan MacCarney was coaching the defense. Small leads and the defense goes "prevent" as in "prevent win". The worst was Michigan State. They should be ashamed. They had a fourth and 10 or such with about 40 seconds left and put 3 down linemen (even one of those got offsides like a doof) and their flatfooted, passive defense gave up a 35 or so yard pass. Pathetic. It was worse than any of the 3rd downs today where we only rushed 3. The prevent wins when you have SUPERIOR talent and can match up....coaches got to know that....not just the x and o wonkish crap. Give your guys a CHANCE to win. --Same with Zone Read....if you have superior talent, you can run it. If you are not matching up well...you better coach up instead of doing the same thing over and over and over..... --Would have liked to have seen more White and Woody, less Johnson today. --Noter Dame is very lucky --Maryland should be embarassed. You can wear funky stuff if you are good.....if you get woodshedded, it is ridiculous. --I would like to see exactly what the personal foul was on the intercept for touchdown in Michigan State, Nebraska game....it took 7 points off board and was as much as anything down stretch to cause Michigan State collapse. --Next year will be Ferentz's last as Hawkeye coach. -- --

I don't think he would mind sharing snaps on these tough Top 20 games we have.....I just think that gives us a better chance. I like him, I just don't want to see him run more than 5 times a game.

I would agree with that completely, and he needs to give the ball up on the read options. He HAS to.

I had a woman who kept saying...Cant anybody in Red Jerseys play this f'ing game? I told her to just go suck a lollipop and stay away from all football games.
I don't know about the stands but I had a hard time understanding the ref with his piece of **** mic. And I swear I heard him call a penalty on Kansas State in the first qtr.
There was also some student losing his mind at a ref just after OU's touchdown at the end of the first half. The ref was standing by the pylon near the student section and this guy just starts screaming "HEY REF! THAT CALL WAS HORSE****! HORSE****!" (I think about the no-call on offensive PI on that TD) The ref actually looked at him, said something and shook his head and laughed. Meanwhile the guy just keeps screaming as loud as I've ever heard someone yell. This was while the band was in front of the section waiting to go on the field.
Drunk obnoxious Cyclone fan in section H. I grew fond of him because he was getting under the Sooners' skin. Every time they got a penalty he told them to quit their (expletive) cheating. He yelled at their band to shut up so he could hear the good band. He blamed our loss on the failure to play Sweet Caroline at the end of the third quarter. When he started cheering Fighting Irish in the last two minutes, Oklahoma fan made the mistake of complaining that he couldn't even root for his own team, to which he responded that he would root for his own team as well as anybody who put their punk (expletives) in their place. Also gave a guy with an Adrian Peterson jersey crap about them running up the score on us just so Peterson could break his leg running into the end zone. He was obnoxious and I feel kind of bad for enjoying it.
Originally Posted by CyByDesign I was watching from home and thought I heard something from the stands during OU's first or second penalty. As the camera guy was zooming in on the ref for announcement I swear I heard someone yell "...illegal (something) defense. 200 yard penalty. Touchdown". It made me chuckle. Anyone else watching hear it? I may have to go back and check the DVR. I think he was the same person that yelled about the interference call, If you call that against us i'm coming down on the field and kick your ******* azz
Someone in section B brought multiple yellow paper penalty flags and threw them into the lower deck everytime they felt the officials missed a call.
Originally Posted by lakeliving Idiot in section E, about row 10, yelled repeatedly "Senor Taco" each time Edwin attempted a kick. NO CLASS, AND NOT FUNNY. Racial jokes ............ummmm, no. OMG ... I think I know who you are talking about and he sits right behind me in row 9. I couldn't make it due to work... thank goodness.
Do you ever go to away games? Originally Posted by MeanDean Thanks to the season ticket holders behind us in Section F who sold their tickets to OU fans. The OU fans who were okay except for this woman with them who knew nothing about football. After they scored their touchdown before the half and OU is lining up to kick off she exclaims, "Oh, was that a touchdown? Sweet. So what were they cheering about down on that end? What? It's only worth 3 points?" I felt sorry for the kid sitting with her who really was frustrated explaining why flags were flying or who had the ball. Now I know why people keep complaining about ticket holders selling their tickets to visiting team fans. It's really really annoying.
In a "saw" it from the stands report, I saw two girls with OU gear on ( solid 5's and could get to 7's with a 12 pack) in the south endzone at field level and one of them was chewing skoal, spit cup and all. Honestly did not think I would see that again outside of Stillwater.

Ecko by Marc Ecko is my husbands favorite cologne. He ran out 2 years ago and it's been hard to find until now. He was thrilled to have it again! I love the way it smells.
