The Broncos switched things up Thursday, completing a morning walkthrough before an afternoon practice session later this afternoon.
It was a typical walkthrough for the team as the coaching staff continued to install their playbooks, but one major difference today was the sight of referees on the field.
A crew of NFL officials came out onto the field during the walkthrough and they will deliver a presentation concerning rule changes later in the day to both the team and the media.
Head Coach John Fox spent a good amount of time talking with the officials during the walkthrough and players also spent some time talking with them in between plays.
Eric Decker turned some heads as he walked out of the locker room this morning.
The wide receiver came out with a Fu Manchu mustache, which brought out a few smiles from the media members in attendance.
Many of the numerous additions the Broncos have made along the defensive line have yet to be seen in action, with several players still waiting to take the field for their first practice.
But with Brodrick Bunkley participating, he joined the first-team D-line this morning — taking the place of Louis Leonard — along with fellow defensive tackle Kevin Vickerson and defensive ends Elvis Dumervil and Robert Ayers.
There isn't too much to choose from during a walkthrough, but tight end Robert Quinn showed off his hands during the session.
Orton threw a high pass in Quinn's direction and he stuck out his hand to make a one-handed catch, bringing the ball in.
It looked effortless.
Dennis Allen's voice is always heard loud and clear on the practice field and communication was key for the defensive coordinator during the walkthrough.
"We have got to emphasize our communication," Allen said repeatedly to his defense. "Don't assume everyone knows the call."
The special teams units got some work in as they worked on lining up for the snap and pressuring the punter/kicker.
The punt team also practiced while backed up against the end zone to mimic a challenging in-game scenario.

What I want to know is why Nissan is saying in there comercials on TV that ...they are the only car company with a car that doesn't use Gas at all... thatis a quote. Is Tesla going to do anything about this?
No. Likely there is some fine print in their advert that specifies major vehicle manufacturer or something like that.
Or maybe they consider TeslaMotors to be a toy manufacturer! ;) ;ppP
GrammarNasty Mode/"Ad Campaign" "their commercials" "it is the only car company" "that is"
/GN Mode
You're welcome!
They aren't considering Tesla yet because Tesla hasn't gone mass production yet. When they do, then they will be considered a car company, not a kitcar company (which is what the Roadster is, more or less).

Rhesus protein sequences were obtained by conceptual translation of the transcripts described above.
The Affymetrix Rhesus Macaque Genome Array was produced as a result of joint collaboration between the Norgren Lab and Affymetrix
Although Affymetrix provides an annotation of the Rhesus Macaque Genome Array, we have created an alternative annotation using a different approach. Briefly, our annotations are based on BLAST searches using the consensus sequences from the Affymetrix rhesus GeneChip files. We BLASTed these sequences against the human transcript database and identified the best hits.

Proposed Gene Description
This annotation may contain errors and should be used with caution. We welcome user feedback and hope to improve the quality and usefullness of this dataset.
An article describing the development of this array "Novel approach results in first-ever rhesus macaque whole-genome array" was featured in Affymetrix Scientist Spotlight.
Although developed based on rhesus macaque sequences, this genechip has been used for several additional species including: Macaca fascicularis (cynomolgus monkey), Macaca radiata (bonnet monkey), Macaca nemestrina (pigtail macaque), Cercocebus atys (sooty mangabey), and Chlorocebus aethiops (grivet). See listing of experiments by species at EMBL-EBI.
The rhesus macaque genome array has been used for a wide variety of different studies including the following subjects: evolution, SIV/HIV, SARS, Monkeypox, stem cells, reproduction, neuroscience, transplantation and RNA helicase A. See experiments which have used the Rhesus Macaque Genome Array by Subject for more information.

Of course, neither political party is anything like they were when Abe was around. In most issues they have swapped position.
Actually, in most places people have been propagandized to THINK they swapped position. But when you look at how they actually voted on various subjects (civil rights laws and Internet censorship, for two of a host of examples) or how the programs they produced actually worked out (The Great Society for just one in a host of examples), expect to find that the alleged swap is mostly smoke, mirrors, and very effective political propaganda.

Nutrition Experts Warn Fans about Increased Heart Attack Risk from One High-Fat Meal
WASHINGTON—Plan to grab a Quiznos Classic Italian Sub for the Super Bowl this year? Think again. Dietitians find one large sub contains 1,190 calories, 68 grams of fat, 135 milligrams of cholesterol, and 3,550 milligrams of sodium. To help consumers make informed nutrition choices, dietitians with the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine singled out popular party items with extraordinarily high levels of saturated fat, sodium, and cholesterol.
Super Bowl Sunday is America's second-biggest food consumption day of the year, after Thanksgiving, but many fans don't realize that some items sneak in more saturated fat and sodium than most people should eat in an entire day. PCRM dietitians want fans to know just how unhealthful some of these party foods actually are.
"Studies show that sports fans already face an elevated risk of heart attack on big game days," says PCRM dietitian Susan Levin, M.S., R.D. "Adding fatty products will raise blood pressure, stiffen major arteries, and cause the heart to beat much faster. Football fans deserve to know that even one very high-fat meal can raise the risk of heart problems on game day."
Here are five shockingly unhealthful products:

Founded in 1985, the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine is a nonprofit health organization that promotes preventive medicine, conducts clinical research, and encourages higher standards for ethics and effectiveness in research.

Gingrich, Paul vow to stay in GOP primary contest
By JACK GILLUM, Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican presidential contenders Newt Gingrich and Ron Paul are vowing to stay in the race even though Rick Santorum is not.
Santorum's departure Tuesday has pushed former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney closer to the nomination. But Gingrich and Paul say there is still time left for voters to pick a more suitable alternative to face President Barack Obama in November.
Paul's campaign says he is "the last — and real — conservative alternative" to Romney.
Gingrich took to Twitter to call Santorum's departure "the last stand for conservatives" and to urge supporters to donate to his campaign.
Money is an issue for Gingrich. Utah officials say his campaign's $500 check to get on the ballot for Utah's primary has bounced. His campaign says a new check will be issued.

Need Nonprofit Board Members? LinkedIn Helps You Make Connections
With nearly two million nonprofit board seats open, good board members are hard to find. Yet, according to Taproot Foundation, most professionals want to be on boards.*
How do nonprofits attract the right professionals to their boards, the ones who want to do the job and who have the particular skills needed by the organization? Well, the simple answer is – just ask. The longer answer is you need a conduit to professionals who care. LinkedIn Board Connect now provides that conduit for nonprofits, at no cost.
Ensure your success with 7 tips from board governance and LinkedIn pros, Marc Halpert, Maria Semple and Geri Stengel.
*Taproot Foundation estimates 87% of human resources professionals and 92% of marketing professionals are interested in board service but far fewer actually serve on boards.
On LinkedIn, nonprofits must take seven steps to reach and recruit board members:
- Determining the skills and expertise you need on your board
- Look your best
- Build your network before you need it
- Experiment with search
- Be introduced or go direct
- Build relationships
- Orient nonprofit board members to ensure their success
Data-Driven Libraries Part 2: Understanding Customers Through Segmentation Analytics
Customer segmentation studies and data analytics combines demographic data with lifestyle information to help public libraries better understand who their customers are and what services best meet the community's need, whether school-aged children or empty-nester couples. This type of GIS-based market segmentation can also help inform strategies around such initiatives as a levy ballot and also eliminate inefficient marketing efforts.
Data-Driven Libraries Part 3: Decoding Data to Plan for the Future
Data-driven decision making is creating large pools of data around which public libraries are trying to define everything from overarching strategies to granular collection development strategies. Although the analysis of this data is often left to third-parties, some libraries are taking the step of hiring their own data analysts to help administrators decide what the data means, why it matters, and how best to present it to other stakeholders.

In this exclusive sneak peek for library staff members, Jay Turner will demonstrate improvements to GPLS's online continuing education program, now known as the Georgia Library Education Access Network (GLEAN). This enhanced program goes live on July 1, 2013. See GLEAN in action and discover how it will benefit your continuing education and professional development goals.

Hi everyone,
We're close to purchasing a Coachmen 320BHDS, which is 36'11" long and has 2 deep slides plus an opposing mini slide for the kitchen. Love the floor plan, but the main thing I'm worried about is that most campgrounds might not have large enough campsites. We enjoy county parks, city parks, and state/federal campgrounds. We're not 'RV Resort' people as a general rule...so we like that it's 30 amp, and under 11' tall. But there is the length issue. Would love some input before it's too late. Anyone? |

Spurscast #203: Sebastian Ginobili Interview
Just days after interviewing Fabricio Oberto, we had the pleasure of interviewing Sebastian Ginobili on Monday night. Sebastian is Manu Ginobili's older brother and a professional basketball player in Argentina.
We asked Sebastian about his background growing up as one of three brothers that all ended up playing professionally. We also asked him about his current team Libertad Sunchales, who are currently in the second round of the playoffs against Boca Juniors.
He also told us that he thinks the Spurs will win the series against the Mavericks and that he is a very loyal Spurs fan and doesn't have any other favorite teams.
We also have a bonus for our spanish-speakers readers and listeners as Arianné Villanueva called in and ask Sebastian questions in Spanish as well.
We also want to thank Sebastian for giving us over an hour of his time, and Silvia and Rita for helping us set up the interview.

But I-Mark's new 16-footer with an inked tip can mark a measurement without a pencil, and Johnson's Stud-Squared has two sliding gauges to assist layout tasks. Can either measure up to the Stanley standard? By Doug Mahoney Email Comments 0 Share Back 2 of 4 Next Return to Gallery Back Next Burcu Avsar View Thumbnails I-Mark ($25) Standout Challenge: (65 inches) The thin tape of the I-Mark meant less support. It stood out to less than half the distance of the FatMax. Weight Check: (271 washers) This tape held a load of 7 pounds, 4 ounces. You could suspend a newborn child from this tape and still take an accurate measurement! Drop Test: The 15-foot drop blew off the ink pad and damaged the tab. At 20 feet, the shell split. At 25 feet, a screw head popped out. But the I-Mark kept working.

Collecting OTHER PEOPLES COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL
How sweet is that.
You don't need to be a merchant to have Pinterest users screwing you out of earnings.
I looked the other day. There are still a pile of my photos on Pinterest, put there by copyright violators.
That equals thousands of dollars a year in income for me, even if you use the average CTR rates on my site over time.
I also looked at my stats, I get almost no traffic from Pinterest.
When visitors see my pics on my site, some small % of them click the adjacent ads, ON MY SITE and I get paid a few pennys. Those pennys, nickles, dimes etc add up to thousands of $$$$$ per year, I want that money!
See MY COPYRIGHTED PHOTOS on Pinterest ... I get nothing, no chance for even that small % to click an ad I'd get paid for.
I didn't conjure these photos up from thin air either. I've spent tons of time and money traveling the USA to take these photos.

share your thoughts...
I write a monthly column for a newspaper of a city close to Los Angeles. I am working on a story about the October 1967 concert the Doors did at California State University Los Angeles. I am trying to get in contact with fans who actually attended the concert. I you were there I would love to ask a few questions. (my email address is email@example.com). Thanks, Gary F.
does anyone know where i can find a copy of full circle in 8-track form ????
Ok guys. When did the Doors first play at the London Fog?? Gotta get the start date for that pinned down for reasons of accuracy.
Read Ray's book, and that pretty much will give you all the detailed info that you need. What better way to get accuracy, then to get from someone who was there....(:
i don't know if this has been discussed here, but there is a book out buy frank liciandro called "jim morrison friends gathered together".
the book is a collection of conversations that frank liciandro had with friends and close colleagues of iim morrison. this book answers the question that is often asked: "what was he really like?" who better to answer this question and a whole lot more than the people who really knew him. every conversation is interesting to read.
if you are interested in getting a glimpse into who jim morrison really was, you have to read this book. i think it's the best book about jim i've read.
you can get it on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Jim-Morrison-Friends-Gathered-Together/dp/0991252527/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1391358833&sr=1-1&keywords=friends+gathered+...
I grew up in Nw Arkansas and We read The Unknown soldier In class while I was attending Pea Ridge School in the Mid 80s it was in our literature books at school Im a new member with alot of doors viinyl I am missing absolutely live and thats it
Monty Python is coming back again after all these years.
Were active more or less the same time as The Doors!
Entertainment to higher ground.
Hi there! Happy Xmas! And so it goes, I have a version of "Wintertime Love" (Ukulele - Bass - Vocals), although here in Argentina it's so hot!!!
Happy holidays, Doors fans around the world!
One thing on the R-Evolution disc I'm really curious about is the music The Doors composed for that car promo or whatever it is. A Ford training film? How long does it run and how would you describe it?
Just curious about the photos. I'm getting the deluxe version regardless. Thanks!
Hello sombra517,
I don't know how many of them can be called rare but what I can tell you for sure is that the book is beautifully done and I would dare to recommend the deluxe version.
Thanks for your comment.
Jim Morrison would have been 70 years old today.
I can't even begin to explain the sheer brilliance of Jim Morrison that has influenced my life. Still to this day I have a hard time coping with the fact that he is no longer a part of our world. Jim Morrison was beyond intelligent, educated, witty, and eloquent. He knew and understood so much about life and I don't think there is anything more admirable in any human being. There is never a day where I don't listen to his voice or think of everything he has left for us to remember — his music, his poetry, his philosophy, his charm. Jim Morrison will live on forever. He will always be a huge part of my life.
"The time you wait subtracts the joy
Beheads the angels you destroy
Angels fight, angels cry
Angels dance and angels die."

English As She Is Spoke
English As She Is Spoke | |
Author | Pedro Carolino |
Original title | O Novo Guia da Conversação em Portuguez e Inglez |
Country | Portugal |
Language | Portuguese and English |
Genre | phrase book |
Publisher | Appleton & Co. |
Publication date
1883 |
Media type | |
Pages | 60 |
English as She Is Spoke is the common name of a 19th-century book written by Pedro Carolino, and falsely additionally credited to José da Fonseca, which was intended as a Portuguese-English conversational guide or phrase book, but is regarded as a classic source of unintentional humour, as the given English translations are generally completely incoherent.
The humour appears to be a result of dictionary-aided literal translation, which causes many idiomatic expressions to be translated wildly inappropriately. For example, the Portuguese phrase chover a cântaros is translated as raining in jars, whereas an idiomatic English translation would be raining buckets.
It is widely believed that Carolino could not speak English, and that a French-English dictionary was used to translate an earlier Portuguese-French phrase book, O Novo guia da conversação em francês e português, written by José da Fonseca. Carolino likely added Fonseca's name to the book without his permission in an attempt to give it some credibility. The Portuguese-French phrase book is apparently a competent work, without the defects that characterize English as She Is Spoke.[1][2][3]
Cultural appraisals and influence[edit]
Mark Twain said of English as She Is Spoke that "Nobody can add to the absurdity of this book, nobody can imitate it successfully, nobody can hope to produce its fellow; it is perfect."[4]
The book played its part in maintaining morale during the American Civil War—Frederick W. Seward recording how, in January 1864, "As John Hay read aloud its queer inverted sentences, Lincoln and Seward laughed heartily, their minds finding a brief but welcome relief from care".[5]
Stephen Pile mentions this work in The Book of Heroic Failures, and comments: "Is there anything in conventional English which could equal the vividness of 'to craunch a marmoset'?"[6][7] The original has "to craunch the marmoset", an entry under the book's "Idiotisms and Proverbs." This is the author's attempt to translate the French slang idiomatic expression "croquer le marmot", used to indicate waiting patiently for someone to open a door,[8] with "croquer" referring to the knocking or rapping sound and "marmot" a term for the grotesque door knockers in vogue at the time. The term is presumably inspired by the marmot's large teeth, as many of the grotesque door knockers were figures holding the knocker clasped in their teeth.
Tristan Bernard wrote a very short comedy with a similar name : L'Anglais tel qu'on le parle. Ionesco's La Cantatrice chauve is mostly made of language conversation book lines used out of context.
Publication history[edit]
- 1853 - In Paris, J.-P. Aillaud, Monlon e Ca published a Portuguese-French phrase book entitled O Novo guia da conversação em francês e português by José da Fonseca. The Portuguese Biblioteca Nacional has a copy of this book with catalogue number L.686P. Another copy of this book is in the Bibliothèque nationale de France under the catalogue number FRBNF30446608.
- 1855 - In Paris, J.-P. Aillaud, Monlon e Ca published a Portuguese-English phrase book entitled O Novo Guia da Conversação, em Português e Inglês, em Duas Partes (literally, The new guide to conversation, in Portuguese and English, in two parts), with authorship attributed to José da Fonseca and Pedro Carolino. A copy of this book is in the Bibliothèque nationale de France under the catalogue number FRBNF30446609. Another copy is in the Bodleian Library, Oxford.
- 1883 - The book was published in London as English as She is Spoke. The first American edition, published in Boston also came out this year, with an introduction by Mark Twain.
- 1969 - The book was re-published in New York by Dover Publications, under the title English as she is spoke; the new guide of the conversation in Portuguese and English (ISBN 0-486-22329-9).
- 2002 - A new edition edited by Paul Collins was published under the Collins Library imprint of McSweeney's (ISBN 0-9719047-4-X).
- 2002 - Brazilian edition of the copies of the 1855 edition held in the Bibliothèque nationale de France and the Bodleian Library, published by Casa da Palavra, Rio de Janeiro (ISBN 85-87220-56-X).
- 2004 - A revised paperback version of the above Collins Library edition was published (ISBN 1-932416-11-0).
Related titles[edit]
The phrase inspired some other publications, notably:
- English as she is wrote (1883)
- English as she is taught (1887), also with introduction by Mark Twain[9]
- Ingglish az she iz spelt (1885), by "Fritz Federheld" (pseud. of Frederick Atherton Fernald)
- Britain as she is visit, a spoof tourist guide in similar style to the original book. By Paul Jennings, British Life (M Joseph, 1976)
Contemporary allusions[edit]
The phrase English as she is spoke is nowadays used allusively, in a form of linguistic play, as a stereotypical example of bad English grammar.[10]

Comments about South Shore Summer Breeze Nightstand - Blueberry:
We bought this whole set (bookcase captains bed, chest and nightstand) for my toddler. [...] Pieces were not complicated to put together, just took some time. The book case captains bed probably took the longest at 2 1/2 hrs. I am very pleased with the color and how sturdy the furniture is; it is a great value for the money and would gladly buy the brand again.

SUBWAY® stores are best known for our commitment to providing freshly baked bread, ingredients and food alternatives to our customers. Behind the scenes, we have been working diligently to improve the sustainability of our products and operations. In fact, we are on a journey to make our stores and operations as environmentally and socially responsible as possible, and to help improve the health of the planet at the same time.
Over the last few years, we have switched to more sustainable products and business practices that use less energy and resources and generate less waste. We are working on other initiatives - some highlights include:
SUBWAY® stores are individually owned and are operated by independent franchisees. Working with the non-profit, franchisee owned, European Independent Purchasing Company (EIPC Ltd) we strive to provide our franchisees with the best solutions to help them improve their operations focusing on energy efficiency, resource conservation, waste reduction and food safety (see Sustainable Sourcing).
By design and the nature of our product offering, our operations are fairly energy efficient but as energy costs continue to rise, it is important to improve the energy efficiency of our stores. For instance:
Many regions around the world are beginning to experience varying degrees of water stress due to increases in population, weather pattern changes or inadequate water management infrastructure that can result in insufficient supply of safe drinking water. We recognise how important it is to conserve water and use it wisely.
In 2010, we worked with our pickle and pepper suppliers in Europe to reduce the amount of brine. This means we can ship 29% more product in the same amount of packaging, saving around 47,000 cardboard boxes per year. It also reduces road miles as we ship the same amount of product in fewer trucks.
We are working on ways to reduce our waste stream with a goal of having as close to zero waste to landfill as possible.
Stores can use recycling bins and are also required to maintain a litter free environment.
We have worked with our suppliers to optimise how our products are packaged to reduce waste streams for breads, meats, cheeses, sauces, produce, paper products and cleaning products used in our stores. For example:
Other sustainable practices used in the UK and Ireland stores include:
Over the past four years, we have been working very hard to improve the sustainability of our packaging and to eliminate unnecessary packaging wherever possible. We continue to look for ways to increase the recycled content, recyclability, degradability and compostability of our packaging where feasible and cost effective. We have redesigned items to be more multi-functional, to be made with more sustainable materials and/or with less material.
The majority of our paper packaging is made with recycled content and can be recycled (where commerical facilities exist)
We believe that the most sustainable practice is to reduce "single-use" packaging where feasible. Our franchisees have the option to serve their dine-in guests with a reusable basket lined with deli paper. This approach minimises the associated waste stream and improves the meal presentation.
To further reduce bag usage, stores have the option of using a sticker to individually wrapped Subs for takeaway which eliminates the need for a bag.
Through other sustainable packaging solutions put in place in the UK and Ireland, we have moved:
