CNHI News Service
DAYTON, Ohio —
Leave it to the kid to lead the Hoosiers.
Yogi Ferrell scored the game's first nine points and finished with 16 points and a career high-tying eight rebounds as Indiana routed James Madison 83-62 on Friday in the NCAA Tournament's second round.
The Hoosiers' lone freshman starter, Ferrell was flawless from the field in the first half of his first tournament game, hitting all six of his shots in the first half for 14 of IU's 43 first-half points.
"It was a lot of fun," Ferrell said of his hot start. "I was able to pick my spots, I felt like I was in a groove.
"If I couldn't get a score, I was going to try to hit someone else."
Indeed, when Cody Zeller became the first Hoosier other than Ferrell to score, his dunk came off an assist from Ferrell.
"That's what a point guard's supposed to do," said Maurice Creek, Indiana's redshirt junior who also played in his first NCAA Tournament game. "He's supposed to contribute for himself and contribute for others, and he got layups, wide-open 3s, knocked them down, and he got other people wide-open shots. That's what great point guards do."
Ferrell finished with six assists and one turnover for IU (28-6), which was never threatened with being the first No. 1 seed to lose to a No. 16 seed.
"We know that anything can happen in the NCAA Tournament," Ferrell said. "We've already seen some pretty crazy things happen. So going into this game, we were not going to take this team lightly."
The Dukes didn't take Ferrell lightly; they just didn't realize how fast he was on the court.
"Until you're on the court with them, my guys couldn't really catch up to the speed of the game, and I thought we did a better job in the second half," JMU coach Matt Brady said.
"The speed that they play is unbelievable," Dukes guard Devon Moore said. "It was definitely hard at the beginning of the game, facing that type of speed because we've actually never seen anything like that."
Ferrell himself had 14 points in the game's first 5:26.
The Dukes (21-15) didn't score their 14th point until there was 5:42 left in the first half.
"They ran faster than any team we ever played," JMU's Andre Nation said. "They threw the first punch, and then they threw another punch, and they kept throwing them, and we weren't throwing any back."
Nation's layup off an Indiana turnover to start the second half cut the Dukes' deficit to 43-24, but Christian Watford hit 1 of 2 free throws to put IU back in front by 20, and James Madison wouldn't get any closer the rest of the way.
"That's what you want to do every game, jump out on teams, let them know that you're there all night," Will Sheehey said. "I think they were a little shocked to see it's a different league than what they've been playing in."
Five Hoosiers scored in double figures, with Sheehey (15), Zeller (11), Victor Oladipo (11) and Jordan Hulls (10) joining Ferrell. Watford had nine points as the Hoosiers shot 29-of-55 (52.7 percent) from the field.
Nation scored 24 points to lead the Dukes. Charles Cooked added 18 points.
The Hoosiers will face No. 9 seed Temple in Sunday's third round. The Owls (24-9) led by as many as 18 points in the second half against North Carolina State, but had to hold off a Wolfpack comeback to win 76-72.
Khalif Wyatt led the Owls with 31 points, clinching the victory with two free throws with 2.2 seconds remaining after Lorenzo Brown's jumper brought the Wolfpack within 74-72.
"My teammates did a good job of getting me the ball, and they trusted me to make two shots at the end," Wyatt said. "The N.C. State guys were talking a little bit. So I just had to block it out and come through for my teammates."
Jake O'Brien added 18 points and Rahir Hollis-Jefferson scored 12 for the Owls, whose shooting cooled off in the second half against N.C. State. After shooting 16-of-30 in the first half to build a 38-22 halftime lead, the Owls were just 8-of-20 in the second half.
But Temple made 20-of-31 free throws after halftime to secure the victory.

2005 vintage on tap at the Malt House in Madison, WI on its opening night. $10 for a tulip glass.
Appearance: Raspberry vinegar colored dark pink. Beautiful color. No head and almost no bubbles. Flattish. Probably much better looking out of a bottle at least when reasonably young, or, as I have experienced with other kegged Cantillon, this may look better after a few chalices have been served and a few weeks in the keg have allowed this puppy to build a little carbonation. That may sound crazy but it's damn sure what happened to the last keg of Vigneronne I drank from.
Aroma: Huge aroma of raspberries and raspberry juice, plenty of lovely funk, barn yard notes, horse urine, acidic grape skins, very astringent.
Taste: Front is all raspberry and the back is all funk. Pretty cool flavors. The grape skin astringency comes through. The fruit is just magnificent and steady amounts of barnyard goodness beat upon the palate. Yum.
Mouthfeel: Very acidic and without carbonation this becomes hard to take in large doses. Still, it is not unbalanced and generally light to medium bodied. Carbonation would be a big improvement and I will be curious to try this in the bottle when I visit in Belgium in two months to see how it is different.
Drinkability: Not very good. This is a tough one to drink. The acid really gets to my tongue and throat in a much bigger way than most lambics have. I wouldn't want to many of these but again, this could be very different with a bottled version.

2007 vintage, bottles in September 2009.
A: Ruby red with a small pink head that leaves some lacings.
S: The smell is a bit mild with notes of raspberries, grass and mild funky notes. Not a whole lot of acidity.
T: The taste is tart with muted but clean raspberry flavors. Somewhat acidic. Notes of grass and raspberry seeds, and funky notes of mud and hey. Wood. The finish has a mild grassy bitterness to it and notes of minerals and dry raspberry notes.
M: Surprisingly full body (still moderate though) with very sparkling carbonation.
D: Good. Very drinkable. However, it seems to lack complexity and is slightly to clean in character. It seems "young", which isn't that weird since this bottle was only a couple of months old. Would probably be way better in a year or so.

LP Framboise served in a tulip glass. Sticker is 2010 vintage, with a cork/bottling date of 2013.
Appearance: Pours a brilliant, clear, gorgeous, blood red. Generous two-finger foamy head that is a light pink color. No lace in the glass
Smell: Freshly smashed raspberries on a bright summer day. A slight musty basement-like aroma. Hint of lengthy oak aging subtlety blends into the background. Acetic vinegar. Ends with a touch of funk.
Taste: The taste bursts with a cascading waterfall of acetic vinegar. Just the right amount of fresh raspberry sweetness cuts into the vinegar and provides a perfect balance. You'll swear you can taste the musty basement, but not in a bad way. It's very complex and has layers of flavor. There's a lot going on here that is difficult for my palette to discern, but rest assured it's world-class.
Mouthfeel: A low, effervescent carbonation paired with a light-body. It is wet and refreshing as it glides gracefully around the mouth. The finish on this Lou Pepe Framboise is incredible as the flavor just seems to last forever.
Overall: What an incredible drinking experience. This Cantillon is world-class, near-perfection of what a fruited, funky sour should be. I'm thoroughly excited to try my Lou Pepe Kriek's and might even hang onto my 2009 Lou Pepe Gueuze.

Vintage 2009; bottled fall 2011
A - Pours a beautiful clear ruby red with one finger of pink foam. Head quickly settles to a thin cap which is maintained. No lacing.
S - Letting the glass sit for a short time, the aroma is a huge rush of raspberries, both tart and jammy. After swirling the glass a few times, more of the funky side emerges, though the aroma is still dominated by fruit.
T - Nice combination of dry, tart raspberry and moderate funk. Raspberry component has absolutely no sweet jam taste, just a nice solid tartness, but not exceptionally sour, which is to be expected for a younger bottle. Funk plays a supporting role here. I think the aroma was a bit better than the taste, but the taste is still very good.
M - Light, crisp mouthfeel with a tart dry finish.
O - Excellent framboise. Would like to try an aged bottle to see where the tartness and funk end up.

A: Tapped into a small goblet; red in color, hardly any head
S: Very fruity, identifiably raspberry, some malt
T: Highly acidic, sour and tart, delicious. This is an excellent lambic style beer that starts tart and fruity, goes to sour, and is dry in the finish. No sweetness in the profile at all.
M: Low carbonation, but this was probably the result of our pour coming from the last in the keg. It's quite persistent and refreshing. A lovely beer.
D: A highly drinkable beer, if you can find it. Great to share.
We had this beer at the bar in Binny's - South Loop, Chicago. As noted, it was the last of the keg, but it was still excellent.

2007 vintage. I had been saving this bottle and opened it in celebration of trying my 2000th beer.
The beer pours a reddish-purple color with a pink head. A great looking beer. The aroma is great. I get a lot of raspberries, but hidden in the background is the Cantillon funk that I love so much. The flavor is even better than the aroma. I get tart raspberries, oak and some of the Cantillon funk. The beer is so dry that it makes your mouth water as soon as you drink it. The salivary glands are working in overdrive. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.
Not only one of the best sours I have ever tried, this is one of the best beers I have had period. It more than lived up to the hype. Well worth the $29 I paid for the bottle and I would buy another bottle again in a heartbeat.

2008 vintage bottled and picked up on first trip to the brewery in Fall of 2010, in the cellar for about a year and a half.
A-Looks like raspberry juice, the pink head quickly breaks down.
S-The characteristic Cantillion aroma is here, can pick this smell out from other locations-something about that Brussels air. Lots of fresh picked raspberry aroma still present.
T-The first drink is upfront puckering with then turns into floral raspberries, which then is overtaken again by sourness.
M-A super quick finish, the end note is sour and a bit astringent. Thin bodied.
D-Too sour for me, the wife drank the bulk of this bottle.
O-This wasn't overally exciting for me. I am a bigger fan of the regular version.

Bottle (2007)
Thanks for opening this with me, mrbubbler!
Slightly hazed rose and dark pink in color with a moderately sized off-white head that lasts longer than expected, eventually leaving dots of stick down the glass.
A big blast of fresh raspberry leaps from the glass, along with big amounts of stinging sourness, along with a mild, funky, earthy character. Superb.
The flavor is exceptional, with a huge combination of fresh raspberry and big sour notes, along with mild leather and some funk. This is so good it seems simple. All the desired flavors are so big, pronounced, and expressive, it doesn't get much better than this.
Medium bodied with high carbonation. A joy to drink.
Simply phenomenal.

Vintage 2001
Appearance: Ruby red pink tone with a light whitish pink head leaves some lacing scattered and fine. Aroma: Sour notes of acidic quality, funky wild aromatics with cat pee and horse blanket farmhouse characteristics with a raspberry fruit backbone. Taste: Puckering even more so than most Cantillons I've tried, raspberry sweetness shows up somewhere in there funky edge yeasty note, I know this style is an artform but damn this one is wild. Spontaneous fermentation at it's best hits the palate with a barrage of sour notes but with each sip it grows on you. Mouthfeel: Medium bodied spritzy carbonation world class lambic. Drinkability: One bottle by yourself would be a venture, but I recommend sharing it with beer loving friends or somewhat educated about this tradition style. This one could possibly send a newbie running.

By JOHN KLINE
GOSHEN — Congresswoman Jackie Walorski, R-IN Second District, was the featured speaker at a special Goshen Chamber of Commerce luncheon held Thursday afternoon at Maplecrest Country Club.
During the luncheon, Walorski provided attendees with a federal legislation update from Congress. Among the main topics touched on during the talk were issues with the Affordable C-are Act, balancing the budget, the Keystone XL Pipeline and Immigration reform.
Health care
Of the many issues currently on her radar, Walorski said the Affordable Care Act is probably number one, and more specifically the medical device tax included within the health care act language.
"One of the onerous parts of the taxes that are in the Affordable Healthcare Act that we are actively working on repealing is this medical device tax," Walorski said. "Our state obviously is hit harder than really any other state in the country, and our region here in the Second District bears the brunt of that, as we not only have commuters in every one of our counties up here in and out of Kosciusko County, but many of you in this room, and many companies all over the second district are also contract producers of small parts that go into larger parts."
In digging deeper into the possible consequences of the medical device tax, Walorski pointed to the fact that the tax is what she called a "compound comprehensive tax".
"So it's 2.3 percent times every hand it passes through, so by the time it gets into your knee or hip, it's 8 or 10 percent cumulatively," Walorski said of the tax. "So my phone started ringing about the third week of January from CEO's of local hospitals saying, 'You're kidding me. I can't believe this is where we're at.' The good news is, on the House side, we have probably voted at least twice to repeal that tax this session, including in the budget we passed a couple weeks ago. The better news is, on the Senate side, they are getting so much pressure as well from the American people. This is a grassroots American reaction to a very onerous tax that's hurting jobs in districts wherever orthopedic pieces are made."
Looking forward, Walorski said she is excited to see what happens with the health care debate this summer due to what she described as an unusual "openness" and spirit of bipartisanship being shown right now among the members of Congress.
"There is an openness in this summer moment that we have to do a couple of things," Walorski said. "One is I think obviously the wheels are starting to come off of the Affordable Healthcare bus, and so there has been some push on the administration side to start talking about them wanting a delay. I can tell you on the House side one of the priorities we have as a House is to repeal the medical device tax. I think if we ever have a moment to get that done, it will be this summer, because everybody is at the table."
Budget Talks
In discussing the budget, Walorski noted that the Republican House, the Senate and the president all have budgets they would like to see passed. However, while having so many options may have been seen as a negative in previous sessions, Walorski said she sees the multiple budgets as a chance for the American public to decide the path they would most like to see for the country.
"The Republican House passed a budget a couple of weeks ago that balances in 10 years, repeals the Affordable Health Care Act and the taxes that are in it, and has some tax reform in it," Walorski said. "The Senate has produced a budget. The president has produced a budget. I think it's a good thing that we have three budgets out there, and the reason is because whenever you can hold fact up to the American people in a very transparent way that this is what it is, and every entity is represented... it's a good thing for the American people to have that information. There is a variety of opinions of what people believe, so I think it's another moment where American's have a chance to make a decision on which way they want this economy to move. I think it's a step in the right direction. "
Once again referencing the party openness she experienced when dealing with the healthcare issue, Walorski said she is fairly confident a finalized budget will be within reach by the end of the summer.
"I think there is a willingness and an openness to come up with some kind of budget answer before the debt ceiling comes down," Walorski said, "which is probably going to come down in late summer or early fall."
Keystone Pipeline
Moving beyond healthcare and the budget, Walorski also took a brief moment to touch on yet another contentious issue facing the American public today: the Keystone XL Pipeline, a proposed $5 to $7 billion extension of the existing Keystone Pipeline which transports tar sands oil from Canada and the northern United States primarily to the Midwest refining markets.
"That is an issue that grassroots America has taken on, and I think it's almost iconic that Americans understand in a nonpartisan way that most of us want domestic oil production in this country," Walorski said. "Most of us agree that we've got to stop being penned in and only buying oil from people that want to destroy us. There's an openness on both sides to talk about coming up with something like the Keystone pipeline. I think part of it is that at this point Keystone represents to a lot of people in this country a freedom in our own country to develop and to continue to move into domestic production."
Immigration Reform
Closing out Walorski's main topics of discussion Thursday was immigration reform, which she said appears to be gaining traction on both sides of the isle in a way that could mean passage of an actual bill by perhaps the end of this summer.
"The fourth issue that I think we can expect movement on and I think there will be movement on is the immigration bill, because there's an openness," Walorski said. "I think most elected officials will agree that if there's ever going to be an immigration bill, it will be this summer. The voices are there, and there's an openness this summer to have a conversation and to actually have a bill."

This video started as more of a test for video editing techniques to be used in another project. But then kind of tured into it's own mini project. It's a character introduction/promo vid for the continuing Kirby story fic, even if Kirby himself doesn't appear in this one. It's more of an introduction for more characters anyway. And there are a few first time appearances here as well as some underlying meaning to the way it's set up. A full revised version of of this video may be made at some point but for now it's a short promo.

Well this is the legendary first presentation of Halo game, and undoubtly a surprise for many - just look on what platform it was originally made. After this presentation Microsoft entered with big bucks, and the rest is history. Apple at this time was only at the beginning of ascent from financial troubles, maybe that explains why they allowed this game to slip away. It was 1999, original iMac (bulky, made in many colors version) was not even a year old, and Mac OS X was more than a year away (this demo was run on OS 9). Funny thing is, this version of game was created for Open GL and on PowerPC processors, used then only by Apple and Amiga computers. First X-Box, and of course PC's used Intel CPUs. Today all consoles (PS3, Wii and X-Box 360) use PowerPC technology, while Apple switched to Intel around the same time, for many official reasons, but most probably because IBM (PowerPC producer) could not manage creation/production for everybody. Anyway - Mac users were crushed w...

Running away from a problem
Some former colleagues of Dijkstra have stressed in interviews with me that Dijkstra was not an engineer (in accordance with their definition of the term). By discussing Dijkstra's characteristic top-down design perspective in my previous post, I have already given one reason why Dijkstra was perceived as a non-engineer. Below I present another reason. While doing so we will again encounter the dichotomy between performance and generality, a dichotomy which Dijkstra seems to have stressed throughout his whole career.
Performance measures are of prime concern in several software niches. Examples are CPU utilization, execution time, storage fragmentation, and memory footprint. In Dijkstra's words:
In the design process it is not unusual that some sort of performance measure is dependent in a complicated and only partially known way on a design parameter whose value has to be chosen.
An example of a design parameter concerns the strategy of garbage collection. Choosing a garbage collection strategy influences storage fragmentation when the program at hand is executed. An increase in storage fragmentation can have an adverse effect on memory footprint. In summary, the value of a design parameter can influence several performance measures and choosing the optimal value is very difficult.
Dijkstra mentioned two usual but unsatisfactory approaches to the problem. The first is to assign a group the task of discovering the optimal value for the parameter. The second is to let the user of the system specify the value of the design parameter. The first approach leads to ``heated arguments and an overall paralysis of the design process''. The second approach doesn't help either because ``the user is equally unable to fix the parameter in a sensible way''. Instead, Dijkstra says, a competent designer should ``run away'' from the problem.
The most efficient way to solve a problem is still to run away from it if you can, and one can try to restructure a design in such a way that the parameter in question loses its significance. [my italics]
I am not able to give a specific example here. Can you? I suspect that the design of Dijkstra's earlier THE operating system contains several examples.
In any case, Dijkstra's urge to seek general solutions lay at the heart of his thoughts once again. Dijkstra stressed that such generalization often comes at the expense of application specific performance.
In individual applications the performance might be less than optimal, but this can be easily outweighed by greater adequacy over a wider range of applications and the easier justification of the remaining decisions.
2 comments
When doing complex system design, "running away" as Dr. Dijkstra said is far from waving white flags. Don't you see Java hides all occurance of pointers from language user thus eliminates traditional C complexity and bugs dramatically. Some problems may be inevitable, not others. When one finds another way to make a problem irrelevant, GO FOR IT!

Colorado Buffaloes vs. California Golden Bears - Reference Tool Box
Can new secondary Coach Ashley Ambrose get the young guys ready to play? Cal Football Spring Position Battles: The Secondary
California Golden Bears wide receivers coach Eric Kiesau and defensive backs coach Ashley Ambrose were on Dan Hawkins's staff for the Colorado Buffaloes last year. We find out what Buffs fans think...
The California Golden Blogs discusses some of the issues during the Cal Football 2011 off-season. It's not expected that Jeff Tedford will revamp the offense.
Ashley Ambrose is the new California Golden Bears defensive back coach after a one year stint at the same position with the Colorado Buffaloes, replacing the outgoing Al Simmons.
Cal football secondary coach Al Simmons has left the team to pursue other opportunities. Simmons helped coach and develop current Denver Broncos defensive back Syd'Quan Thompson.
Colorado coach Dan Hawkins has promoted defensive technical intern Ashley Ambrose to interim assistant wide receivers coach. The reason for naming Ambrose on an interim basis now is it allows him to help in recruiting during the spring evaluation period, which is well underway and runs through the end of May. ... Ambrose, 38, has spent his life in the game but has no real coaching experience outside of the past year he has worked with the Buffs. He spent 13 seasons in the National Football League as a defensive back and has worked the past year with secondary coach Greg Brown in Boulder. He knows the wide receiver position from having played and coached against it, but has no real experience teaching it.

Others ahead of you have retired, so there is lots of room at the 2M milestone! More than 90% of all the GBs that signed up over the past 13 years will never make it to 1M points, most GBs quit before they even get close, there are less than 9,000 GBs out of more than 8 million GBs that have gone on to 1M points! Can you believe that GBs are still active going on 13 years and heading for the 5M milestone, and many GBs continue on before they retire between 3M and 4M! Keep going, don't stop now, like so many that retired once they reached their first red car! Keep leading the way for others to follow in GasBuddyland! Thanks buddy for your 2+ years of dedication here on GasBuddy! Have a nice week! Ron

"I've done research with Dr. So-and-so and have done an internship with Dr. Other but I need three recommendation letters for grad school. Can you help me out?" Finding that third letter is often really hard for students. Like most instructors you'll likely feel torn by the desire to help but the knowledge that that a recommendation letter that is simply positive without offering details or information beyond that found in the transcript is not helpful to graduate applications. So what do you do? Should you agree to write the third (likely weak) recommendation letter? As a student, should you request it?

Slow Down and Pray, Says Benedict XVI
The Holy Father went on to note how the saints have taught of the importance of a "profound unity of life between prayer and action, between total love of God and love for the brethren."
He said this is a "precious reminder for us today, habituated as we are to evaluate everything based upon the criteria of productivity and efficiency."

During his only free Sunday of the fall, Carolina Panthers coach Ron Rivera watched plenty of football, but wasn't able to find Tampa Bay-Arizona game.
It turns out Rivera doesn't have the NFL Sunday Ticket.
"I'm usually busy," Rivera said.
But Rivera is familiar with the Cardinals, the Panthers' opponent this week following their bye. Rivera also is well acquainted with Arizona first-year coach Bruce Arians, the Associated Press Coach of the Year in 2012 after leading Indianapolis to the playoffs as interim coach while Chuck Pagano was being treated for leukemia.
When he was San Diego's defensive coordinator, Rivera schemed against Arians, then Pittsburgh's offensive coordinator. And though the Cardinals are in the bottom fourth of the league in total offense (320.2 yards a game) and scoring (17.2 points), Rivera said Arians is a skilled play-caller overseeing a diverse attack.
"It is kind of nice to play a more conventional (offense). But they're not as conventional as people think," Rivera said Monday. "You get a lot of spread formation, a lot of four-wide receiver formations. They do have a couple packages where they put both tailbacks back there."
For the second game in a row, the Panthers will face a traditional, drop-back passer in Carson Palmer. Last year as a member of the Raiders, Palmer was knocked out of a 17-6 loss to the Panthers following a blind-side hit by defensive end Greg Hardy late in the first quarter.
Hardy was penalized for unnecessary roughness for leading with his head and fined $25,000 for the hit, which left Palmer with cracked ribs and a bruised lung and sidelined him for the Raiders' last game the following week.
The Panthers (1-2) are coming off a 38-0 win against the Giants in which they tied a franchise record by sacking Eli Manning seven times. Hardy had three of those sacks, and said after the game it was a relief facing a pocket passer after chasing Seattle's Russell Wilson and Buffalo's EJ Manuel the first two games.
Panthers safety Mike Mitchell, who played with Palmer in Oakland, said Carolina's defensive backs have to be aware of deep throws from Palmer, who won the Heisman Trophy at Southern Cal.
"They'll want to get the ball deep to (Larry) Fitzgerald and a couple of their guys, but we've got to throw off the timing," Mitchell said. "Carson is a huge West Coast guy, a USC guy. He's all about timing – three-step, five-step drops.
"Just looking at their offense, without giving away the game plan, we want to disrupt their offensive timing and make Carson have to hitch with the ball and let the Kraken (Hardy's nickname/alter ego) go get him again."
The Panthers used linebacker Chase Blackburn's knowledge of the Giants – his former team – to their advantage in the Week 3 win.
Mitchell isn't sure he can match the scouting reports provided by Blackburn and wideout Domenik Hixon, another ex-Giant. But Mitchell plans to tell the defensive backs what to expect from Palmer.
"Just as far as how Carson thinks, how he deciphers where he's going to throw the football, those are things I can help guys with," Mitchell said. "If he sees a one-on-one, he's going to his match-ups. He's very confident in his wide receivers."
The Panthers' banged-up secondary is getting a little healthier. Cornerbacks Josh Thomas (post-concussion symptoms) and James Dockery (thumb/shoulder) returned to practice Monday after missing the Giants' game.
Thomas said he has a clear head and fresh legs after a two-week break.
"It was almost ideal, what I needed -- to get a game of rest," he said. "The game plan was to rest my head and rest my legs and hit the reset button for the Cardinals and Minnesota coming up."
Strong safety Quintin Mikell (ankle) and cornerback D.J. Moore (knee) rode exercise bikes Monday, but their status for Sunday's game is uncertain.
"They're up and around a little bit, so it was good to see," Rivera said. "We went from having just seven (defensive backs) active (against the Giants) to we have to figure out how to have the rest of them active. It's going to be an interesting week for us. It's kind of nice to have a whole bunch of guys around."
The Cardinals (2-2) have scored 20 points the past two games – a 31-7 loss to New Orleans and a 13-10 win against the winless Buccaneers.
Although he didn't watch Arizona's victory live Sunday, Rivera said he's seen enough from Palmer and Arians over the years to know the Cardinals are dangerous.
"Carson's a veteran guy," Rivera said. "He throws the ball on time. He's got a good delivery. He puts the ball where it needs to be, and he's got some targets. They've got some skilled football players. This is a team that is learning their offenses. Coach Arians is bringing a diverse offense that's had a lot of success."

HARTFORD ——Joe Young Jr. peered into the empty Bank of America tower, a heartache for the city with its vacant 26 floors right in the middle of Main Street, and smiled.
The cash has long been hauled out. The bank tellers and corporate offices moved a block away to CityPlace I.
In a sound stage 2 miles away is a 15-foot-high Trojan horse awaiting its cinematic debut. The wooden prop will be wheeled into the former bank building at 777 Main St. next month, and there will be actors, a bank robbery and a police chase that will end at the Colt Gateway — scenes from "Diamond Ruff," Young's movie based on his novel about a Hartford con man.

PICTURES: Preparation For Filming 'Diamond Ruff'
PICTURES: Movies Filmed In Connecticut
Director Alec Asten and a local production crew plan to start shooting the full-length independent movie in just three weeks, beginning on Sept. 6, for $200,000.
They said they'll film inside the bank tower at a small cost while it sits on the market. And Young has been renting a sound stage on Weston Street, the site of a recent casting call and the crew's production meetings, at a bargain rate thanks largely to his connections, although the shaky economy also plays a role, he said.
Young credits the downturn with bringing him closer to finishing a project that has dominated his life for the past three years.
City and state film officials have endorsed the production, which Young considers a PG-13 morality tale with "Pulp Fiction" swagger. A couple of supporting actors from HBO's "The Wire" have signed on for lead roles.
"It's so much pressure. You've got to shoot certain scenes in a certain amount of time, and you don't know if something is going to break down," said Young as he walked downtown. "I do love those challenges, but it's scary at the same time."
"I never celebrate too early," Young added. "I may promote too early, but I never celebrate too early."
'Take A Chance'
In the world of Diamond Ruff, a late-twentysomething with a downtown Hartford penthouse and an addiction to money, the mind is more potent than a gun, the con is theater, and there are no qualms about using the Bible as a muse for one's greed.
"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you," Ruff says, quoting Matthew 7:7.
Ruff, to be played by actor Fredro Starr, was orphaned at 7 when his drug-addicted parents were shot and killed on Christmas. A gifted boy from the city's North End, he attended Milner Elementary School and would slip into a library at night to read the classics and sneak into museums to admire the great works.
Learning from masters, as Ruff puts it, honed his ability to "artistically create and manipulate opportunity."
After the bank robbery — local law enforcement and state police don't exactly shine in that plot turn — Ruff eventually meets a preacher, Trek Woods, played by Dennis L.A. White, who tries to persuade Ruff to use his mind for good.

Texans WR Andre Johnson and Titans CB Cortland Finnegan were each fined $25,000 by the NFL on Monday for fighting in Sunday's game. Neither was suspended.
The two players engaged in a fistfight in the fourth quarter after spending most of the game jawing at one another. On a Texans running play, Finnegan jammed Johnson's facemask at the line. Johnson responded by ripping off Finnegan's helmet and landed two punches to his head and neck. Finnegan tore off Johnson's helmet before the players were separated.
Both players were flagged and ejected. Johnson apologized after the game. Finnegan did not speak to reporters.
Finnegan has been fined four times this season for $45,000.
The way we see it
Video highlights of the brawl have been all over TV and the Internet. It's one thing to have a scuffle, but to see Johnson throw punches was jarring considering he is generally mild-mannered. Finnegan seems to get under Johnson's skin — the star wideout was fined $7,500 for getting in a scuffle with Finnegan last season. In a wide-open AFC South, both teams should feel fortunate that neither player will miss any games due to suspension.

JOEL ROSARIO, GILDED GEM, WINNER: "I've ridden her before and I moved a little early last time. Today I took my time and she responded well. She's the kind of horse that wants to come from a little bit off the pace. I just let her relax and find her stride."
BOB BAFFERT, GILDED GEM, WINNER, AND SUBSIDIZED, SECOND: "I thought Mother Ruth (fourth) was going to keep going but she started getting tired at the end. Gilded Gem likes to sit way back there. Rosario fits her well. He's a very patient rider . . . she comes running late and ran them all down. The other filly (Subsidized) ran well to get up for second. We'd have liked to be one, two, three, but we'll take it at one-two."
NOTES: Baffert said the $300,000, Grade I Humana Distaff at seven furlongs at Churchill Downs on May 7 would be considered for Gilded Gem's next race. The winning owners are Thomas Gaines and Olin Gentry of Lexington, Ky., and Richard Nip.

MN for Emily
I'm 28 weeks with our first baby (surprise gender) and DH and I have FINALLY agreed on a possible girls' name (although still miles away on a boys name).
I'm finding it hard to think of a middle name though. We've agreed on Emily, and our last name is one syllable beginning with H.
Here are the limitations - there are a few
I'd like to avoid anything beginning with E or H. Also avoid G, as I'm EGH and so don't want my daughter having the same initials as me!
Names to avoid as they're already taken by family (we have a huge family with lots of girls): Elisabeth (me!) Cara, Sophie, Grace, Kate, Jessie, Lily, Charlotte, Joanna, Hazel, Kirstie (or anything similar), Rebecca, Rachel, Sarah...
I'd also rather avoid names ending with the "ee" sound as I feel that clashes with Emily.
Style wise - I quite like one syllable names but that's not a rule. I'm also quite classic with name preferences and don't like "new" names.
I really liked Emily Rose but now can't shake the association with the movie of the Exorcism of Emily Rose
I also like Emily Joy but DH has vetoed

text: Flash Forward needed to take a page from LOST. They figured out that they had to start the season later and let the new epsidoes run back to back. Why they didn't do that for Flash Forward is beyond me. I watched it avidly before the break, but never regained interest when it came back from break.

Our compatriots in dudeism have made a business of ranking the hottest women on the planet and for the most part people just accept the lists they put out, shrug and move on. But here at Asylum, we like to consider ourselves hotness scientists which is why we created our controversial top 100 list based on search-engine data.
But what about those other, editorial, subjective lists of Maxim, AskMen and FHM? What do they say about our competitors and their readers? Good question, here's the breakdown:
Major conclusions: AskMen favors the slightly older, more mature and less-partying type. The other two seem to unite in favor of more household names (Christina Aguilera and Cameron Diaz), and the not-very-wholesome women who may be hot, but are more likely to get cited for DUI (e.g., Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears).
Total number of entries:
Of a maximum 299 different entries, there are 189 unique women that made the three lists.
Common entries:
28 women appear on all three lists
Highest average ranks of women appearing on all three lists:
Megan Fox -- 3.5 (1 on FHM; 11 on AskMen; 2 on Maxim)
Jessica Alba -- 6.7 (2 on FHM; 5 on AskMen; 13 on Maxim)
Marisa Miller --10.3 (11 on FHM; 2 on AskMen; 18 on Maxim)
Unique entries on each list:
Maxim has the most unique entries (38), with AskMen a close second (37) and FHM the fewest (32)
Most disagreement on a woman appearing on all three lists:
The rank for Victoria's Secret Angel Miranda Kerr differs by almost 40 each way: she's 97 on FHM, 10 on AskMen, and 58 on Maxim
Biggest overlap between two lists:
Tie: Maxim/FHM and AskMen/FHM both have 48 entries in common
Smallest overlap between two lists:
Maxim and AskMen have only 42 entries in common
Top 10 stats:
-- Predominant occupation -- Actress (FHM has 7, AskMen 6 and Maxim 7)
-- Predominant hair color -- Brunette (7 on FHM, 9 on AskMen and 6 on Maxim)
-- Average age -- 25.8 (FHM), 26.5 (Maxim), 29.5 (AskMen)
-- Oldest in any top 10 -- Kate Beckinsale (36 years old, AskMen)
-- Youngest in any top 10 -- Rihanna (21 years old, Maxim)
Consensus between two lists but snubbed from the other:
- Lindsay Lohan is 22 and 23 on FHM and Maxim, respectively, but AskMen left her off the list
- Cameron Diaz is 37 on Maxim and 38 on FHM, but AskMen left her off
- Natalie Portman is 17 on both FHM and Askmen, but not on Maxim's list
- Taylor Swift is 50 on AskMen and 51 on Maxim, but not on FHM
- Zoe Saldana is 33 and 29 on AskMen and Maxim, but not on FHM
- Britney Spears is 12 on FHM and 13 on Maxim, but didn't make AskMen
- Not quite as consensus, but Christina Aguilera is 35 on FHM and 14 on Maxim, and absent from AskMen
The haven for middle-aged stars:
-- Jennifer Aniston (40), Tina Fey (39), Carmen Electra (37), and Pam Anderson (42) appear on only one list each, and that's the same list: FHM.
One list holds in high regard, but appears low or absent from the others:
-- Madeline Zima is 5 on FHM, but that's the only list she makes
-- Alessandra Ambrosio 4 in AskMen, but 64 on FHM and absent from Maxim
-- Cheryl Cole is 8 on AskMen, but 87 on FHM and absent from Maxim
-- Jordana Brewster is 9 on Maxim, but doesn't appear on the other lists
-- Erica Durance is 14 on FHM, but doesn't appear on the others
-- Erin Andrews and January Jones are 15 and 18 on AskMen, but not on the others
-- Heidi Montag is 8 on FHM, but 81 on Maxim and doesn't appear on AskMen
-- Moon Bloodgood is 20 on Maxim, but 97 on FHM and not on AskMen
-- Kristen Stewart is 21 on AskMen, but 90 on FHM and not on Maxim
Odds and ends:
-- First Ladies: Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, the first lady of France, appears at 70 on FHM; Michelle Obama is 93 on Maxim
-- Rachael Ray is 100 on FHM. Why? Oh right, they did a photo shoot with her.
-- Sasha Grey, to the best of our knowledge, is the only porn star on any of the lists, and she's on AskMen's "most desirable" of all places (but nowhere else).
-- Penelope Cruz is absent from FHM, but she's 8 on AskMen and 30 on Maxim; this is odd, because FHM is otherwise the haven for middle-aged actresses.
Stole this from another site I post on. Thought it was interesting.

Despite being listed as questionable and missing Thursday's practice, Vikings WR/KR Percy Harvin is expected to play in the Sunday night game against the Bears.
After leaving last week's game with a rib injury, Harvin was limited in practice on Wednesday and used Thursday to get an X-ray, which revealed there were no breaks in his ribs. Head coach Leslie Frazier said he decided to give Harvin the day off anyway. He will be wearing extra padding around his ribs, according to a report.
This news comes on the heels of Bernard Berrian being re-inserted into the starting lineup after being benched for disciplinary reasons last week, meaning Donovan McNabb has all his "weapons" at his disposal. Consider Harvin a playable option if you're suffering from bye-week syndrome.

Who's Afraid of Science?
Learning about science has taught me humility about my Bible reading and it has pushed me to think again, to read again, to ask again, and to wonder all over again what the Bible was saying when it was written and how the Bible was heard to its original hearers (so far as the evidence permits us to know such things).
Origins News Roundup for July 23, 2014
This week in origins news, a great collection of articles by key players in the conversation about theology and science, a surprising science fair discovery, and the Apollo 11 anniversary!
Creation Unfolding: Reading Genesis in a Historical Setting
For my part, the historical setting of the text plays an important role in how I read. It's not a problem in my view to see the authors of Genesis embedded in their times, writing in the scientific/mythological terms they knew, even if those terms are now obsolete.
Video repost: Chris Tilling on Biblical Genre and Relational Truths
"There are clues in a text as to how the text should be written, so with Genesis, the rhythmic nature of Genesis 1 and 2, the almost poetic, and hymnic, function that it would have played in the liturgy of the earliest Jewish lives… it seems to me that there are clues here that it should be read in a theological way."
Interview with Ronald Osborn
We must press beyond the various creation narratives in the Hebrew Bible, including the final chapters of Job, to the picture of God revealed in the New Testament—the Creator who does not rationally explain away the scandal of suffering but who instead enters into it.
A Review of "Death Before the Fall: Biblical Literalism and the Problem of Animal Suffering" by Ronald E. Osborn
The confident assertion that the Bible trumps science stems from a misunderstanding of the purpose of the scriptures, and a misapplication of the Bible to answer questions that can only be answered by the application of science.
"The Language of God" Book Club–Chapter 6
How should we interpret the Bible? What is the role of tradition? What is the role of science? Who gets to decide whether traditional interpretations need to change?
Confessions of an Evolving Baptist
"Being confronted with evolution may have been the catalyst for asking the difficult questions, but the real problem for me was not evolution – it was biblical literalism."
Biblical Credibility and Joshua 10: What Does the Text Really Claim?
Once we recognize that no one takes the text literally, and that we have often failed to account for the details in the text regarding the time of day, we can begin anew to try to understand the text as an ancient text rather than as a modern one. As such, we must begin with the idea that the text operates in the world of omens, not the world of physics and astronomy.
Series: Apologetic Issues in the Old Testament (3 entries)
This series, by Old Testament scholar Richard S. Hess, was first published as an appendix to Christian Apologetics: A Comprehensive Case for Biblical Faith (Downers Grove: IVP Academic; Nottingham: Apollos, 2011).
Series: Excerpts from "Evolving: Evangelicals Reflect on Evolution" (13 entries)
We need to hear stories from others who have wrestled with evolution and Christian faith. What arguments made them change their views on science? How did they hold fast to their relationship with God? The essays in this series will eventually comprise a book, provisionally titled, "Evolving: Evangelicals Reflect on Evolution."
A Scientific Commentary on Genesis 7:11
Although committed to the principle of sola Scriptura, Calvin recognized that the Bible would have been written in terms its original recipients would have understood. Calvin inherited the medieval cosmology of his time, a way of viewing the world heavily influenced by Greek thought and one which was about to receive shocks from astronomers such as Copernicus and Galileo. But not just yet.
Series: Genesis Through Ancient Eyes (5 entries)
In this talk, originally delivered at the BioLogos President's Circle meeting in October 2012, Dr. John Walton discusses the origin stories of Genesis 1-3, and why their focus on function and archetypes mean there is no Biblical narrative of material origins.
Series: Scripture and the Authority of God (7 entries)
N.T. Wright explores the context and manner in which Scripture is authoritative. He does so by questioning the meaning of an authoritative book as well as the application of such authority. Wright encourages us to flee from the controlling "list" mentalities that belittle the richness of God's Word, and rather to understand it as a narrative inspired by God and recorded by ancient persons. Ultimately, God "organizes" his people through his Son Jesus and by the Holy Spirit, and not through extracted rules from the Bible.
Revealing God's Nature
In today's video, Brian McLaren discusses the value of considering Scripture in light of the cultures that surrounded them. The Biblical writers were aware of the myths of the power nations that surrounded them, but flipped their stories on their heads to reveal truth about God.
A Lively God
In today's video, Rev. Lincoln Harvey discusses our desire to "domesticate" the liveliness and abundance of God. Harvey notes that the Trinity highlights both the manyness and oneness of God, which can be hard to Christians to fully understand.
Science or sola Scriptura?
So, for Driscoll, the choice is a simple dichotomy: Scripture or science. Scripture is the highest court of authority in all matters, and the role of believing scientists is to affirm Scripture. To fail to do so is to "exchange the truths of Scripture for the truths of science".
Seeing the Flood Story Through an Ancient Israelite Lens
Pete Shaw highlights the story of Noah to explore how the story would have been understood in ancient times and from there he goes on to explore how we might consider it today.
Series: The Truthfulness of Scripture: Inerrancy (3 entries)
This series by Michael Horton first appeared in the March/April 2010 issue of Modern Reformation. Horton begins by pointing out that the concept of inerrancy goes back to the ancient Church, but was most clearly developed by Princeton theologians A.A. Hodge and B.B. Warfield in their 1881 book, Inspiration. These men emphasized that the Holy Spirit worked through limited human authors in a centuries-long process to produce the Bible. Hodge and Warfield defined inerrancy not as the absence of technical errors but as the truthfulness in what the biblical writers were affirming.

The author of this article is putting a lot of speculation into the meaning of "about 500 feet". Is that plus or minus 10 feet? Plus or minus 200 feet? Based on the damage the the car, the positions where the victim was hit and where he landed are likely some distance apart. Was he hit in the crosswalk and dragged 200 feet to where he was found?
on Sep 25, 2012 at 6:26 pm
yah ass/u/me, in that detailed report, more detailed than I've seen here at the Voice, they forgot to mention he was dragged 200 feet. Of course they did. And when they said he was hit about 500 feet from the nearest intersection, they really meant 300 feet. Yyyep.
Time for bed.
on Sep 25, 2012 at 8:33 pm
The car was traveling about 80 feet / second. 200 feet of travel after the impact would take only 2.5 seconds.

FRANKTON, Ind. —
After Frankton used the first half as a training exercise, the Eagles boys basketball team got down to business.
At the end of the game, Frankton had a 79-58 victory over Wes-Del and junior Aaron Korn had crossed the 1,000-point barrier.
The Warriors trailed by just five points, 38-33, at intermission and much of the reason was Frankton coach Brent Brobston's insistence.
"We only pressed once lasst year and we've been working on it," he said. "I told them we were going to stay in it for the whole first half. We didn't do our rotations properly and we gave up four layups. It will be something they will learn from off the film."
With the specter of the press lifted from sight, Frankton rolled away from Wes-Del in the third period to the tune of 25-13 for a 63-46 advantage.
"We challenged them in the third quarter to work hard and do the things we needed to do to win," said Brobston. The Eagles responded as a team. In the period Frankton hit 9-of-14 from the field and had no turnovers. Five players scored at least one field goal.
Frankton's final scoring tally looked similar as four players scored in double figures and those four accounted for all but nine of the home team's points.
Korn topped all scorers with 24 points, 21 of those coming through the first three quarters. He only took one shot in the fourth quarter. His 1,000 points came midway through the second period (see sidebar).
Sophomore Austin Compton scored 18 points, hitting two-thirds of his nine field goals attempts. Nick Wright and Trevor Hughes each scored 14 points.
"We challenged Austin to get deeper into the defense and he did a good job of that," said Brobston.
Justin Evans scored 20 for the Warriors and Sam Paul added 18. Those two were a combined 12-of-21. The visitors remained in the game for as long as they did by shooting the ball well. They hit half of their 40 filed goals and missed only four of 19 free throws.
"We thought they were going to be pretty good," said Korn of Wes-Del.
The Eagles move to 3-0 and will host Eastbrook on Friday. "That game will be interesting," said Brobston. "Eastbrook beat us last year."

A little about me...
And how was your day? Sure, I'm supposed to blab about myself, but getting to know someone is important to me. Good conversation. Depth. Feeling.
But seriously, I'm not always serious. I have been known as a wild and crazy guy. Never mind how long ago that was, I still like to laugh.
IT is my profession; my muse is my passion --writing, telling stories, composing/producing/playing music.
Exercise and eating right (just sensible -I'm not a fanatic about this or that diet) are high priorities. And having fun, finding reasons to laugh are also high on my list.
Outdoor activity is a must at least when the weather cooperates. I learned how to roll a kayak last summer --ok -got the basics. It definitely takes practice, but I just wanted to mention it to you re: my sense of adventure.
Movies, theater, concerts are good reasons for me to be indoors.
Enough about me. I still want to know about you.
About the one I'm looking for...
Openness, passion, a sense of direction, a desire for a man in her life -not necessarily marriage- but a partner romance and intimacy as well as this adventure of being alive.
A woman who takes care of her physical self as well as her mind is important to me.
I'd just like to add...
hmmm, I covered the hints for this section above. So maybe I'll just add a moment of silent contemplation :)

The Arizona attorney general has permanently shut down a Phoenix-based towing company in the wake of a series of auto repair "sting" operations.
A consent judgment totaling $686,582.09 against Tim Kunselman, owner of Sun Valley Towing LLC, at 1354 S. 39th Ave., was based on customer complaints of deceptive business practices and the state's undercover auto sting operations.
Of that amount, the court approved an award of $610,000 in civil penalties and $67,580.59 in restitution to consumers.
In the sting operation, an automotive repair expert shut off an undercover vehicle's fuel cutoff switch. The state's undercover operator then called Sun Valley Towing for service.
The company towed the vehicle to its repair shop where a mechanic reset the switch, correcting the problem. The owner then charged the state's undercover operator $340 for replacing the fuel pump, an unnecessary repair that was never performed, Attorney General Tom Horne said.
"The many serious complaints we received from Sun Valley customers were validated when Kunselman and his company, Sun Valley Towing, were caught red-handed in one of our undercover auto stings charging for repairs they never performed - a very serious and expensive deception for consumers," Horne said in a statement.
Fifty-nine complaints from customers were cited in the suit, alleging the company failed to make promised repairs, kept their vehicles for months or years, returned them stripped of parts in the same or worse mechanical condition and repeatedly lied to customers about their vehicle's status and supposed refunds.
The judgment prohibits Kunselman from ever again engaging in auto repair, tow operations, vehicle repair, vehicle sales and vehicle service.
