Visual Media is going through fundamental changes. It has irretrievability lost its lock on the audience but has gained unprecedented opportunity to evolve the platform by which it is communicated. Evolving apps are as important as ever-changing content, and the social context in which those apps are used is deeply different from the couch-potato model of the past. The silos that segregated media industries and formats is likewise dissolving: people today tune in to ideas more than channels. They move fluidly between text, audio, and video, and between devices and viewing situations. They are in their own world of "prime time" and "prime place."
Ultimate Media is creating a platform for the invention, creation, and realization of new ways to explore and participate in the media universe. We apply extremes of access, processing, and interaction to build new media experiences that are data driven, socially designed, and inherently participatory. We consider narrative entertainment as well as synchronous events exemplified by news and sports. We build exploratory systems that are based on a publication paradigm rather periodic broadcasts: content is released at a specific time and available anytime thereafter, at home and on the move. We base live participation on frame-by-frame metadata obtained in realtime and assembled by viewers into new perspectives and new content. We also build ways for media to directly interact with the spaces and objects around us.

Superstorm Sandy's devastation has prompted calls for emergency Federal funding to make up shortfalls in agency funds and to speed the region's recovery. But the disaster has also spurred critics to question whether it's wise to build — and rebuild — on the fragile, vulnerable ocean shore. The New York Times has this story: ("As Coasts Rebuild and U.S. Pays, Repeatedly, the Critics Ask Why," by Justin Gillis and Felicity Barringer). The Times considers the example of Dauphin Island, Ala., where Gulf hurricanes have destroyed roads, sewers, and other infrastructure along with houses — nearly a dozen times in four decades. "Yet time and again," says the Times, "checks from Washington have allowed the town to put itself back together."
A federal law called the Stafford Act provides subsidies that cover three-quarters of the cost to local governments of infrastructure repairs after natural disasters. Sometimes, the federal treasury will pick up 90% of the tab. Says critic Eli Lehrer, a member of a Washington, D.C., coalition called SmarterSafer.org, "We simply can't go on subsidizing enormous numbers of people to live in areas that are prone to huge natural disasters."
Dauphin Island, a fragile barrier island in the Gulf of Mexico, has been on the receiving end of destructive Gulf storms "roughly every three years" in recent decades, notes the Times — and has gotten tens of millions of dollars from the Federal government for rebuilding and repair, even as many oceanfront properties have been submerged under the encroaching Gulf.
But Dauphin Island is an extreme example; of the $80 billion spent by the Federal government since 2004 on disaster recovery, much has gone to places hit by inland flooding such as Nashville, Tenn., or damaged by other hazards such as blizzard, fire, or tornadoes. And while Stafford Act funding may be poured into the repair of, for example, the subway tunnels under New York's East River connecting Brooklyn and Lower Manhattan, it seems unlikely that anyone will seriously advocate a retreat from those boroughs in the face of the flood threat.
Still, even if a decision is deliberately made to pay for storm rebuilding, the pace of the rebuilding, and the character of the construction are open to debate. In New Jersey, authorities have waived permitting requirements for reconstruction and repair activities for six months, as long as the work does not change the footprint of the previously existing work. That has critics wondering if New Jersey will lock itself into its past mistakes, yet again, reports the Newark Star-Ledger ("Experts question order allowing immediate reconstruction of N.J. infrastructure that failed during Sandy," by Stephen Stirling).
Throughout last week, says the report, "Gov. Chris Christie and state officials ramped up rhetoric about the need to rebuild the New Jersey shore smarter and stronger in the wake of the storm. But at the same time, an order was signed that temporarily waives permitting requirements, allowing for the immediate reconstruction of the public infrastructure that failed and washed away in the storm's path. It shows a state, experts say, bending to the overwhelming sense of urgency towns and residents feel toward returning to some semblance of normalcy but at the same time potentially jeopardizing long-term efforts to safeguard New Jersey's prized coastal assets against future storms."
New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) spokesman Larry Ragonese said the state is trying to strike a balance: "This is not a blank environmental check we're writing. This is us saying, 'Do what you need to do to get your town running again. We don't want to stand in the way.' There's nothing that can guarantee that everything will be done exactly as we want it. But in the effort to be smart, in the effort to help people who are in dire need, we're going to take a gamble with folks."
But Chad Berginnis, executive director of the Association of State Floodplain Managers, is worried, reports the Star-Ledger. "This absolutely sends the wrong message," says Berginnis. "I have great respect for government officials in crisis, but I think it's confusing when an administrative order comes out that seems to fly face of what's been said publicly about smarter rebuilding."

ITServices is pleased to announce the launch of Microsoft Lync as a major enhancement to the collaboration tools available to Queen's students, faculty and staff.
Beginning September 17, 2013, Lync will be available to members of the Queen's community, with different versions offered depending upon the email and calendaring service being used.
What is Lync?
Lync is a unified communications and collaboration tool that is part of the Microsoft Office suite. It adds many new and exciting features such as instant messaging, voice and video calling, and rich online meetings with screen-sharing and virtual whiteboards. Lync is fully integrated with Queen's email and calendar services, and offers real-time presence information for members of the Queen's community.
Lync has many potential applications in a higher education setting. It can be used to facilitate collaboration among students and their study groups, and it can provide them with an alternate form of communication with professors and academic advisors. Lync can also be used by clubs for event planning and promotions. The possibilities are endless!
In fact, Lync has already been in use for the past few months by members of the Queen's community; including ITServices, Queen's School of Business and the Department of Mining.
To learn more about what Lync can do, check out some of Lync's top features in this overview on the Microsoft website.
Information about how to use Lync is available on the Lync service pages of the ITServices website. Here you will find help documentation and tutorials, with topics that include how to install and configure Lync, and how to manage presence settings.
In October, faculty, staff and graduate students will begin receiving weekly Lync Quick Tips via email that will provide helpful information on how to get the most out of Lync. These tips will also be published on the Lync Quick Tips page of the ITServices website.
Lync is just one of several new service offerings planned for Queen's communication and productivity tools in the near future. More details about these new services will be provided in the coming weeks.

Warren Buffett questioned about insider trading
This article is just another example of unethical business decisions that happen every day by higher ups in multi-billion dollar corporations. Berkshire Hathaway's chairman, Warren Buffett one of the worlds richest and most savvy business owners fell under scrutiny when one of his top advisers invested in a company that Buffett was looking to buy. Technically, because Buffett didn't purchase the company no one gets in trouble for insider trading, but things like this happen all the time, and sometimes good people get tied up in shady business deals that they didn't know they were getting into. I've followed some of Buffetts business transactions for some years now and in my opinion I would definitely say Buffett had no idea that his adviser had invested in the company he was buying. When he found out about these business deals the adviser was let go but this whole event is an example of a way ones unethical business decisions could effect all those around him.

For a man who has done more than
almost any other industrial designer to change our relationship
with technology, Sir Jonathan Ive is remarkably unassuming. Softly
spoken and eloquent, Jony (as he is known to his friends) has

candy-coloured iMac introduced in 1998 to the iPad 3 with its

In the last twelve months, Apple has

Soon after becoming a professional
squash player at age 18, Nick Matthew left his coach. He brought in
David Pearson, then England's national squash coach, and
performance analyst Stafford Murray. Matthew had been playing since
the age of eight and had consistently ranked among the top junior
players in the UK. He was a strong athlete -- he had been a
cross-country runner for many years -- and typically won by wearing
down his opponents. But as a senior player his physicality was no
longer an advantage against much stronger opponents. He realised
that he wasn't good enough.
"His technique was not the best,"
says Murray. "He was very strong, and mentally one of the best. But
you talk about naturally gifted players and he certainly wasn't
one." Murray is the head of performance analysis and biomechanics
at the English Institute of Sport (EIS) in Manchester, overseeing
25 staff who work across all national sports teams. In his
mid-thirties, he has the no-nonsense manner of a sports coach and
the academic enthusiasm of a scholar. Continue reading

Ries will come up with a solution. Arun Muthukumaran, a group
manager of Intuit Payment Solutions, kicks off proceedings. He
describes a feature that could dramatically increase the number of
small businesses that sign up for the company's payment services.
But implementation would burn up 20 employees' time for a month.
What if customers don't bite?
Ries, dressed in a blazer, pastel
shirt and black denim, suggests a test: rather than building the
service and trying it out on customers, create a sign-up page that
merely promises to deliver this groundbreaking capability. Then
present it to some prospective clients. Compare their enrolment
rate with that of a control group shown the usual sign-up page. The
results will give the team the confidence to proceed or toss the
idea into the circular file. No one would actually get the new
feature yet, of course, because it hasn't been built. "I guess we
could piss off a few customers instead of thousands," Muthukumaran
says. Laughter ripples through the crowd. Continue reading

Hurricanes' Tyler Horn center of attention this spring
By Jorge Milian
You've heard of three-star, four-star and five-star prospects.
Then there's Tyler Horn, the Hurricanes' junior center.
"I was a no-star kid who got a shot to play football at the University of Miami," Horn said.
Horn, a native of Memphis, Tenn., isn't exaggerating. Besides UM, the only schools to offer Horn a scholarship were Arkansas State, FiU and Central Arkansas, a Division I-AA school.
Fast forward three-plus years and Horn is the favorite to be UM's starting center when the 2010 season opens on Sept. 2 against Florida A&M.
After redshirting as a freshman and barely playing the last two seasons, Horn has been given the first crack to win the starting job left vacant by the graduation of A.J. Trump. That opportunity began on Tuesday when UM opened spring practice.
"The way I see it, it's my job, but I got to go out and take it," said Horn, listed at 6-foot-4 and 300 pounds. "[Indianapolis Colts center] Jeff Saturday could come in and I would still feel like it's my spot. That's the way I'm going to look at it."
The only spring competition for Horn comes from Shane McDermott, the Palm Beach Central grad who enrolled at UM in January. Another offensive lineman – most likely guard Brandon Washington – could be moved to center, but coach Randy Shannon made it clear he'd like to see Horn grab hold of the starting job.
"It's about time for him," Shannon said. "He's been around, has been on offensive line for a while. Now it's time for him to make that jump."
Horn has limited playing experience. He played just a few snaps against Charleston Southern in 2008 and appeared in seven games in 2009, although he saw action almost entirely during garbage time.
"I haven't played a lot," Horn said. "But I've been here a long time and know the offense. What I have gotten is a lot of mental reps. I may not have been playing, but I know every single play and everything that's happening. Now it's time to go out there and get the experience on the field. That will come with time."
Horn said he spent the past couple of months prepping for spring practice "by packing a lunch and spending the day watching film." He likens the 15 practices this spring to a "job offer."
"No different than if I was going to work for FedEx or anybody else," Horn said. "I have to prove myself."
Despite his lack of experience, Horn is convinced that's going to happen. Asked if he visualized himself starting the 2010 opener, Horn responded: "Absolutely. No doubt in my mind."
A few other notes:
….Shannon said that defensive tackle Marcus Forston will not participate in spring practice. Forston was redshirted last season because of a leg injury. UM previously listed Forston as "limited" this spring.
….Shannon was full of praise for running back Storm Johnson, one of six freshmen to enroll at UM in January. "Fast, a big kid that's electrifying, very fast," Shannon said of Johnson, a 5-foot-11, 210-pounder from Loganville, Ga. "He has some track ability in him, is very quick. He's a big guy, [but] not a fullback. A Mike James type guy, maybe a little faster than Mike. You take those guys that can run because they give you an extra dimension in the open field. I'm kind of excited about that a little bit."
….Spencer Whipple, one of three quarterbacks battling for the No. 2 job behind Jacory Harris, said he is now on scholarship. Whipple arrived at UM last fall as a walk-on.
….Former UM star Warren Sapp, arrested earlier this month and charged with domestic violence after allegedly choking his girlfriend, attended Tuesday night's basketball game between the Hurricanes and Virginia at the BankUnited Center. Sapp was introduced to the crowd. Is there no shame?

Two suspected auto thieves were arrested Wednesday afternoon in Hamilton with the aid of an automatic license plate reader mounted in a Marin County Sheriffs deputy's patrol car, a sheriff's lieutenant said.
A deputy was heading south on Nave Drive, adjacent to Highway 101, at about 5:30 p.m. when the automatic license plate reader recognized a plate from a northbound car as being from a stolen vehicle, Lt. Scott Anderson said.
The deputy pulled a U-turn and pursued the 1998 Honda until it pulled into a Shell station across from the Hamilton Marketplace shopping center. The arrests, made without incident, were made with help from Novato police, Anderson said.
The Honda had been reported stolen Tuesday in Novato, he said. Some property was recovered that deputies believed was stolen as well, he added.
The driver was identified as Diego Armando Vasquez, 26, of Novato. He faces a felony auto theft charge and a misdemeanor of making an illegal key. The passenger was identified as Elena Brito Sanchez, 24, of San Rafael, who faces a charge of auto theft.
ALPR cameras mounted on a patrol car constantly scan for license plates as they come within view of the camera lens. One a plate is found, the software uses character recognition to translate the letters and numbers on a plate then compares them to several thousand plates in a vehicle database. An alert sounds if the string matches one in the list.
The license plates on the alert lists are typically those reported as stolen or associated with people with outstanding arrest warrants. The ALPR system costs about $10,000 per vehicle.
Police departments in Novato, Mill Valley and Tiburon have used the ALPR system as part of a larger effort by the Marin County Sheriff's Department to implement the devices. Tiburon received widespread media attention when it installed an ALPR device on a stationary pole at the town limits so it could check every plate on two main thoroughfares.

Despite occasional complaints from parents about a school start date that creeps into early August, it isn't likely to change in 2014. Hamilton County school district employees overwhelmingly like things just the way they are.
School Board members are likely to approve a plan on Thursday that would leave key start dates and vacation times the same as in recent years.
All certified and full-time classified employees were given an opportunity to vote on three calendar options for the 2014-15 school year.
A total of 2,362 votes were submitted. More than 73 percent of respondents preferred "Draft # 1" which would keep the current school calendar intact, as described below.
Draft #1 (1,738 votes – 73.58%)
School Board members are expected to approve the schedule on Thursday.

Lisa Traylor-Wolff is no longer a public defender, in the midst of formal charges that banned her from judicial office and suspended her law license.
Traylor-Wolff, who was a senior judge and a Cass County public defender, received the sentence Monday after she had reportedly had a romantic relationship with a client while he was incarcerated in the Miami County Jail. Bob Murray, one of the heads of public defenders in Cass County, said Traylor-Wolff is not a public defender, but he would not comment on when she was replaced and who took her place.
Under the settlement agreement with the Indiana Supreme Court, Traylor-Wolff's license was suspended for 45 days and then will be reinstated if she has followed the terms of her two-year probation. If she has violated her probation after 45 days, her law license will be suspended for the remainder of one year.
Murray would not comment on who replaced Traylor-Wolff as one of the county's six public defenders or when that change took place.
"Part of the freedom of speech is that you don't have to comment," Murray said.
Attorney Mark Leeman said he was hired as a public defender March 15 to work on juvenile cases, appeals and some felonies.
However, he said he's not sure if he directly took over the cases Traylor-Wolff was working on.
"I think that that's not really clear," Leeman said.
Cass County Commissioner President Dave Arnold said the commissioners have a contract with Murray and Sheryl Pherson, who also is in charge of the public defenders. He said they are authorized to hire or replace public defenders.
Pherson could not be reached for comment.
However, Arnold said their contract stipulates that the public defenders have to be "in good standing with the law."
"Their licenses have to be current, and they have to be in good standing with the law," Arnold said.

Fighting hunger
What's On
The EU has transmitted to the Council its Action Plan on Nutrition which outlines how the Commission plans to reach its commitment of reducing stunting in children under five by at least 10% (7 million children) of the World Health Assembly goal by 2025. The Action Plan addresses how its strategic objectives in the areas of governance, scaled up interventions and research are to be attained. It underscores the need to work closer with development players and partner countries so that common objectives are set and a strong accountability framework built to track progress.
Boosting food and nutrition security through EU action: implementing our commitments ("Implementation Plan")
The implementation plan builds on the food security policy of 2010 and other recent food and nutrition security policies by providing a tool to improve coherence, complementarity and coordination among the EU and its Member States as well as instigating a process to provide reliable information on our interventions, thereby ensuring appropriate accountability to policy commitments.
New EU policy to improve nutrition across the world and save millions of lives
The European Commission has adopted the communication: "Enhancing Maternal and Child Nutrition in external assistance: an EU policy framework". The new EU policy aims to improve the nutrition of mothers and children in order to reduce mortality and diseases, as well as the impediments to growth and development caused by under-nutrition.
Reducing by half the number of people suffering from hunger by 2015 is a priority for the EU and the International community enshrined in the first Millenium Development Goal. Over 900 million people are estimated to be malnourished - most of them in Sub-Saharan Africa and in South Asia. Even if food prices eased in the second half of 2008, they are still very high and subject to volatility in some developing countries, affecting access to food for low income population groups.
Helping people to better cope with future shocks: the EU adopts a new Communication
On the 3 October 2012, the European Commission adopted a new communication on helping vulnerable communities in crisis prone areas across the world build resilience to future shocks. The communication draws lessons from the extensive experience of responding to recent food crises across the globe and outlines the concrete measures that the European Union is taking to help vulnerable populations reduce the impact of future crises and disasters.
The EU Approach to Resilience: Learning from Food Security Crises – Communication [116 KB] and Factsheet [2 MB]
Financial support
For the period 2007-2013, the EU food security policy is financed through three types of instruments:
- the implementation of food security policy at national and regional level is supported by geographical instruments, such as the European Development Fund (in the African, Caribbean and Pacific countries) and the Development Co-operation Instrument (in Latin America, Asia and South Africa),
- food security issues at global, continental and regional level are addressed by the Food Security Thematic Programme (FSTP). This also tackles food security issues in those countries where the geographical instruments cannot be fully utilised,
- In order to respond rapidly to problems caused by the food crisis in developing countries, the € 1 billion Food Facility provides assistance to countries most affected by the crisis over a three-year period 2009-2011.
Food aid, being basically a humanitarian tool, is managed by DG ECHO under the Instrument for humanitarian aid.
Within the Commission, the responsibility for programming financial resources is shared between Directorate General Development (for African, Caribbean and Pacific countries and the FSTP) and the European External Action Service (geographical resources for non-ACP countries).
Background information
The 1996 World Food Summit agreed that food security exists when all people, at all times, have physical, social and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food to meet their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life.
Food security is a priority area of concentration of the European Consensus on Development. The EU food security policy tackles the issue on three dimensions: availability of food at regional and national levels, access to food by households and food use and nutritional adequacy at individual level.

Fry Up Some Latkes For the First Night of Celebration by Rebecca Gruber 12/04/12 2 Reactions 41 Shares Print 3 27 11 0 0 On the first night of Hanukkah, my mommy gave to me — some yummy latkes made by me! We're wishing everyone celebrating the festival of lights a happy start to their holiday this weekend! After the menorah, there are few symbols of the holiday as prevalent as the latke — that potato pancake fried up in olive oil and dipped in either applesauce or sour cream. While kids shouldn't be the ones handling the flipping in the hot oil, they can still help with the latke preparation so they can claim the dish as their own at your upcoming Hanukkah celebrations.

Buying a Home
Credit Scores Matter
Home sales are down. Mortgage rates are down. But mortgage loans are still tough to qualify for, especially compared to five years ago. In 2005, only 25% of new loans had a credit score of 780. Today, almost 60% of new mortgage loans have a credit score of 780. The bar has risen considerably.
What can you do? Put together as high a down payment as possible. A 20% down payment may not only help you qualify for loan but also for a lower interest rate. Also, work hard to improve your credit score. Catch up on late payments, pay on time, and try to pay down balances so your available credit to credit used ratio is as high as possible.

I have made this several times and will also add in some scallops for company. Its a hit with everyone who tastes it. It's a definate company recipe.

So far I have only made this once - but I will make it again. I pretty much stuck to the recipe - but used rice noodles instead of the spaghetti.
Reviewed Mar. 30, 2010
I am not a fan of thick sauce for pastas and this was perfect with the chunks of tomatoes and the shrimp. The juice from the tomatoes was all that was needed to coat the spaghetti.

When I saw this set online I thought it was beautiful. It won out over the dozen or so I was considering online, over a large span of prices, because it was exactly what I was looking for. I think it is a good deal for all that you get, though it's not the highest quality comforter ever. The comforter itself is not very heavy. I live in Southern California and it'll be fine for me, but if you live somewhere cold you'd need extra padding. The euro shams are plain white, but have a slight sheen that makes them pretty. The main reason I wanted to write this review for others is to clear up a misconception I had from the picture. It looked to me as if the comforter was folded down and was solid black on the back. It's actually solid white on the back, which makes me wary about getting it dirty when I fold it down. It's nice that this says it is machine washable, but I'm wondering how well it'll really hold up in the wash. It does look beautiful in my room, so if you're not worried about getting it dirty or needing something warmer, I would recommend it.
I didnt even have to pull the comforter out all the way to know it wasnt for me. I wanted a cozy comforter that also looks good. Through the packaging i could tell the material looked cheap. So I felt the fabric without even taking it out & it felt like a child shintzy sleeping bag nylon with scratchy faux velvet applique. I did not see myself being comfortable at night in this comforter.
I cannot leave an accurate review as the item was delivered to the wrong address and was returned to sender! Overstock could not track the item and reroute it back to me and since this was the last one in stock....the system showed it as being out of stock and could not be reordered! Very dissatisfied!
I decided to purchase this set after reading other reviews and searching hundreds of other comforter sets. I just moved into my first apartment and was a bit picky with what I wanted. When I took it out of the packaging, I noticed the comforter isn't the most comfortable thing ever, but it isn't bad either. I like all the pieces it comes with, but have had a hard time finding pillows to fit in the euro shams. I love that the design is only at the bottom of the comforter, as it doesn't overload your eyes with something so busy everywhere. The two throw pillows are very nice as well. Overall I would recommend this set to a friend as it is beautiful!
Niec set for my teenage daughter's room. Dramatic patter and color. The fabric was a little on the thin side, so I'm not sure if it will wear well.
I was looking a something elegant looking for my master bedroom and this was ok for maybe a guest room. The material wasn't up to my standards. It was made cheaply made and I wasn't please.
We bought this set for our daughter's college apartment. It was a great value for the price because it came with lots of pieces. The black and white design is also easy to accessorize with pops of bright color.....a plus with teenagers who tend to change their mind often:) This set does have a satiny sheen to it and the design is slightly raised with a nap to the fabric that wasn't easily seen on the picture. My daughter loves it and this added texture looks beautiful....but anyone with pets might find that it attracts hair. Overall.....she is very happy with this purchase and would choose it again!
I didn't read that the design was in velvet, but it looks wonderful on my daughter's bed!
I just got this for my room. Ill start with the good and end in the bad. I do love the look of it even now. It is warm. Now for the bad the comforter quality is cheap. It is white on the underside(it looks black in the image). The designs are in Velvet black it will probably wash off easily. For the price it is fine but to not expect too much comfort.
This set is gorgeous. It is well made and was very affordable. Quick shipping too. I will absolutely purchase from Overstock again.

If you are like most people you don't even know what Atchara is. I had never heard of it until a few weeks ago, but it is a yummy traditional Philippine fermented dish made with unripe raw green papaya, fresh raw ginger root, and other raw ingredients in a vinegar base. Many cultures have a raw fermented vegetable dish – in Germany it is sauerkraut, in Korea it is Kimchi and in the Philippines it is Atchara. Many people believe fermented vegetables are healthy, because they contain bacteria which are helpful and aid in digestion. The Atchara from Tropical Traditions is a true raw and "live" food that has NOT been pasteurized. Green papaya is high in anti-oxidants and papain (a plant-based digestive enzyme) so it is a very nutritious food. Of course since it comes from Tropical Traditions the Atchara is made from organic ingredients and is USDA Certified Organic. But how does it taste? It has a very unique taste, which is hard to describe. It is sour like pickles, but … [Read more...]

David Reed - #16 - WR
|6' 0"/ 190 lbs.
|Dubuque, IA
|Years played
|2010, 5th round, 25th pick by Ravens
Kindle a solid scheme fit for Ravens
The Ravens got a first-round talent in OLB Sergio Kindle, who appears to have slid into Round Two because of questions about a knee injury.
Ravens backup QB Smith signs tender
Ravens backup QB Troy Smith has signed his tender as a restricted free agent.
Trade market hasn't yet developed for Gaither
The Ravens haven't had any "dialogue" with teams on RFA OLT Jared Gaither, GM Ozzie Newsome said this week, and they aren't in a position where they have to take just any offer for him.
Ravens terminate CB Rolle's contract
The Ravens terminated the contract of CB Samari Rolle on Tuesday. Rolle missed the 2009 season with a neck injury.
Ravens' PK situation fluid once again
The Ravens' interest in Shayne Graham is a clear indication the club isn't tied to having Billy Cundiff beginning the 2010 season as its placekicker.
Ravens agree on two-year deal with DL Redding
The Ravens have agreed to a two-year deal with UFA DL Cory Redding, the club announced Monday.
Ravens reach agreement with WR Mason
The Ravens and WR Derrick Mason have reached agreement on a two-year contract, the team's official Web site reported Wednesday night.
Early winners and losers in free agency
Here's a look at the teams that have spent the most wisely to this point and which ones overextended themselves after the first weekend of free agency.
Ravens get Boldin for reasonable price
The Ravens' acquisition of Cardinals WR Anquan Boldin was wise on several levels, not the least of which was that it filled a huge need for Baltimore.
Ravens acquire WR Boldin from Cardinals
The Ravens, in a bold move to bolster their passing offense, acquired Cardinals WR Anquan Boldin for third- and fourth-round picks in the 2010 draft.
Ravens willing to listen on QB Smith
Head coach John Harbaugh has left open the possibility that RFA QB Troy Smith could be dealt, but he indicated that the Ravens' preference was to keep him, save for a trade that would be "beneficial" to the club.
Ravens' Mason has been consistently productive
Ravens WR Derrick Mason remains tough to cover at age 36, and a multiyear deal for him to remain in Baltimore is not out of the question — or unreasonable.
AFC North team needs
The Bengals needed a stretch-the-field wide receiver to pair with 32-year-old Chad Ochocinco, so they signed ex-Buccaneers UFA Antonio Bryant, as PFW examines the needs of each team, position by position, in a series that continues with the AFC North.
Stallworth bolsters Ravens' WR depth, but other moves likely, too
The signing of Donté Stallworth bolsters the Ravens' WR depth before free agency begins, but more moves to bolster the pass-catching corps are likely, the way we hear it.
Ravens sign WR Stallworth
The Ravens signed veteran WR Donté Stallworth to a one-year, $900,000 contract Wednesday, with a reported $300,000 in incentives.
Reed will begin the receiver on the PUP List.||||||| It's uncertain how much of a role he will have upon return.
Reed has landed on injured reserve with a knee problem.||||||| Reed will miss the postseason for the Ravens.
Reed has resolved a marijuana charge against him without paying a fine or receiving jail time.||||||| The case is now closed, according to Maryland district court records. Reed addressed the case Friday rather than going to trial next week. Reed was issued a summons for misdemeanor possession of marijuana last month after police entered his residence in December and found a small amount of the drug.
Reed has been held out of the AFC divisional playoff game against Pittsburgh with a wrist injury.||||||| Reed also missed the Ravens' final two regular-season games. He averaged 29.3 yards on kickoff returns, the highest average for any player with at least 20 returns.

Verona Area School District Superintendent Dean Gorrell works with students Nkechime Ifediora and Naiheima Young. Gorrell found himself back in the classroom teaching math after losing a friendly wager involving the University of Wisconsin-University of Iowa football game.
Verona Area School District Superintendent Dean Gorrell returned to the classroom one day this fall, the result of a friendly wager involving the University of Wisconsin football team's victory over his favorite Iowa Hawkeyes.
Some students and staff at Savanna Oaks School wore Badger red to celebrate Gorrell's visit, and "On Wisconsin" was played during passing times. There were even a few Iowa fans who showed their support through supportive comments and clothing, according to teacher Dave Wallace, who is president of the Verona Area Education Association, and was the beneficiary of the wager.
At a school assembly at the start of the year, Wallace introduced Gorrell as a proud Iowa Hawkeyes fan, and noted that Iowa would be playing Wisconsin in September. Before anyone knew it, Gorrell agreed he would teach Wallace's math class if the Badgers beat the Hawkeyes.
"Needless to say, there was some friendly banter via e-mail, especially after the Badgers won," Wallace said. Gorrell paid his debt by teaching periods 3-5 math on November 1.
Wallace said Gorrell's task was to teach the students "order of operations" and then help them as they worked on a skills practice bulletin board-based routine called "Mountain Math". He and Gorrell met a few days ahead of time to discuss the class plans.
Ironically, Wallace said, as Gorrell began his first class, a red-tail hawk was spotted perched on the roof directly above the classroom. There was no sign of a Badger.
"Everyone involved in this event had fun. The kids were excited to have the superintendent teaching their class, the staff at Savanna Oaks enjoyed the excitement and fun of a friendly sports rivalry, and it was clear that Dean enjoyed having the chance to get back to the classroom and really work closely with kids," Wallace said.
"At a time when budget concerns and standardized testing appear to dominate the headlines, when management and teachers are almost expected to be at odds, it is great to see this sort of fun and cooperation in our schools. The community expects and deserves this sort of partnership, an important piece in the puzzle that creates great schools, and great schools benefit everyone."

A crop of American cockroaches brings in serious cash.
Five 911 operators have filed a lawsuit against the City of Toledo in federal court asking that they and others in the AFSCME Ohio Council 8 bargaining unit be reimbursed the comp time they say they rightly deserve.
"The city has been saying because of staffing levels and operational needs, they've been denying their request," said Council 8 Regional Director Steve Kowalik.
The union says there's reason for the denial. There are 70 emergency operators but 22 unfilled positions, boosting their stressful workload.
"They're being denied the comp time because the Bell administration hasn't addressed the issue of vacancies," Kowalik said.
The lawsuit also states there's a 'lame and lazy list' of operators. Those on the list are told their chances of getting comp time are 'slim.'
"It could be a number of things," Kowalik said. "It could be because you were disciplined, took off for pregnancy leave, an illness or anything."
A spokesperson for the Bell administration would not comment on the lawsuit.
