You're My Meat - YouTube
You gotta be kidding me, people. 3 pages and no one says 'Immigrant Song' by Zeppelin??? This song is the most primal one I can think of. Primal yell, land of ice and snow...geez.
"Ah, those endless forests, and their horror-haunted gloom! For what eternities have I wandered through them, a timid, hunted creature, starting at the least sound, frightened of my own shadow, keyed-up, ever alert and vigilant, ready on the instant to dash away in mad flight for my life. For I was the prey of all manner of fierce life that dwelt in the forest, and it was in ecstasies of fear that I fled before the hunting monsters."
Jack london, "Before Adam"

I just happened upon this article and thought some people here might find this study interesting. I was just fascinated at how that actually carried out the study. Pathomechanics of Closed Rupture of the Flexor Tendon Pulleys in Rock Climbers www.jbjs.org/article.aspx?Volume=80&page=1012
Thanks for sharing! Very cool!! Wonder how much the forces would be different with a lower age sample group!?
Mandarin. I need simpler terms as I'm not all that educated.
I tore one over a month ago tossing a bowling ball....screwed up my ice tool grip this season!!
"...One finger did not have a terminal event, and testing was stopped after the A2, A3, and A4 pulleys had ruptured because the forces at the fingertip and the excursion of the tendons exceeded the limitations of the testing apparatus...." I want those hands!!! Implants perhaps?!?
See? If you allow your organs and whatnot to be donated after death you might actually get used in climbing research! Very cool article. I have only suffered one torn pulley, but the mechanics of how much it takes to rupture one are very interesting.
I read this when I tore my A1 on monkey finger this spring. I loved the part where the A1 pulley never ruptured. Why am I always the exception? I took 9mo off. Damn thing still hurts
First time I blew one out on a steep gym climb. The 'pop' sounded like a gun went off! Yes, 9 months was at least the minimum before I could push it near any strength limit once again. Been 2 months now since my bowling ball accident and not improving at all.
Ugh! I cringe at any mention of the notorious "pop!"

The Saint Louis Billikins continued their impressive run through the Atlantic 10 conference on Tuesday night, knocking off No. 24 Virginia Commonwealth, 76-62, at the Chaifetz Arena.
For the latest on NCAA Tournament projections, check out the latest Bracketology update.
VCU entered the game as the higher-ranked team, but it was Saint Louis that dominated from the opening tip. They held a 17-point lead at halftime and cruised through the second half with a strong showing on both ends of the floor.
The Billikins had one of their best shooting nights of the season, hitting 55 percent of their shots. They went 7-for-13 from behind the arc and made 17 of their 23 free throw attempts.
Jordair Jett led SLU with 16 points off the bench. Mike McCall Jr. had 15 points, while Dwayne Evans chipped in with 14 points and eight rebounds.
Juvonnte Reddic recorded a double-double for Virginia Commonwealth, leading the team with 19 points and 12 rebounds. Treveon Graham also had a strong showing with 11 points and 10 boards.

The challenge and economy are the two biggest reasons for taking small boats offshore. Many cite the unique satisfaction of taking on the ocean to fish it on their own terms, knowing they have the boat, the knowledge and the ability to get out there, catch some good fish and get back.
"There's definitely the excitement of being out there in a small boat where you're in control and doing your own thing," says Angelo Cuanang, West Coast offshore fishing writer and expert who regularly runs out as much as 50 to 60 miles to fish off San Francisco Bay. He's done so for many years — all in a 17-foot Whaler.
One school of thought from skilled mariners actually considers a smaller hull advantageous in large swells. Tom King, a professional mate in Massachusetts, for years made the 20-plus-mile run to fish Stellwagen Bank from his 19-foot Midland ("a Nova Scotia-style hull," he says, with a very high bow and very low freeboard). "We came home riding on top of the big seas like an eggshell, while much bigger sport-fishing boats were having a tough time rolling in the swells."
In the right hands, a small boat does have an element of safety that much larger hulls lose: responsiveness. Bill Potter, boat builder and designer of the original Sea Craft and Hobie Power Skiff hulls, agrees, "A smaller boat can respond much more quickly to the motion of the seas."
Economy of Size
Besides the challenge, downsized boats are relatively cheap and easy. Start comparing costs of purchase, insurance, moorage or storage, maintenance and so on for a 25-foot center-console with those of a 17-footer. Then of course there are fuel costs. A day fishing a brutally seaworthy 25 with twin 175s can easily set you back a figure topping three digits — and that's not counting oil. But you can run out and troll all day in a 17 with a 75 for no more than 20 or 30 bucks.
Lots of fishermen will trailer their boats 50 to 100 miles at the drop of a hat. Let's see ... double-axle trailer behind a full-size V-8 pickup — versus a light single-axle trailer pulled by a little four-cylinder pickup: There's still more economy.

Partly Cloudy
35 of 51
It's entirely possible that Troy "Trombone Shorty" Andrews will one day become the face of New Orleans music, an ambassador like Armstrong or the Nevilles before him -- and that's if it hasn't happened already. He's the youngest artist to be featured on the official Jazz Fest poster, he's backed up and opened for rock stars like Lenny Kravitz, and he's played almost every major festival under the sun. At just 25 years of age he seems to have vaulted over each career challenge with little trouble or failure, and frankly, he hasn't shown any signs of slowing down.
But despite that early, national success, Shorty is still a quintessentially New Orleans musician, down to his Treme roots and penchant for traditional jazz (case in point, his 2004 album "The End of the Beginning"). That's evident on his latest album, 2010's "Backatown," which has Shorty's first bonafide, Top 40-caliber single, "Something Beautiful," with Kravitz sitting in on vocals and guitar. "Right to Complain" is an up-tempo, funky tune that has a catchy chorus and a guitar riff not often found on brass albums, and "Suburbia" is one of the few brass songs that marches along so fiercely it could legitimately spark a mosh pit.
In short, we need more artists like Shorty to keep New Orleans music relevant on the national stage. Whenever he goes on tour -- to Ohio, to New York, to Germany -- he indoctrinates the untrained ear, letting them know that our city's music isn't stuffy jazz that is a chore. It's an eclectic style with adventurous guitar solos, funky riffs and beats that are often impossible not to dance along to. And when that lesson is learned, it's not easily forgotten.

• McANALLY RETURNS TO WINNING WAYS AT SANTA ANITA
McANALLY, INTERACTION HEALTHY FOR SAN MARCOS STAKES
The good news for Ron McAnally these days is, his horses are in better shape than he is. But the 80-year-old Hall of Fame trainer is soldiering on anyway.
McAnally registered his first winner of the meet last Friday when Special Charm, owned and bred by his wife, Debbie, posted a three-quarter length win in the fifth race. Not one to rest on his laurels, McAnally sent out Suggestive Boy to win Saturday's Grade II Arcadia Stakes.
It was the 699th career win at Santa Anita for McAnally, who ranks third behind two late Hall of Fame greats, Bobby Frankel (917) and Charlie Whittingham (869).
McAnally, recently back at Santa Anita after undergoing surgery on his left knee, hopes to continue his winning ways when he sends out turf marathoner Interaction in Saturday's Grade II San Marcos Stakes at 1 1/4 miles on turf.
"I think a mile and a quarter is more suitable for him than a mile and a half, although he won the Pellegrini at that distance in Argentina," McAnally said of the 7-year-old Argentine-bred son of Easing Along, who missed by three-quarters of a length in the Grade II, mile and a half Hollywood Turf Cup last out on Dec. 15. "The horse is training well," McAnally added.
Interaction will be looking for his first stakes win in the U.S. in the San Marcos. He is coming off five straight stakes, a Grade I in the Eddie Read in which he finished second to champion Acclamation, followed by four straight Grade II outings.
The field for the San Marcos, race nine of 10: Interaction, Joe Talamo, 7-2 ; Juniper Pass, Rafael Bejarano, 6-1; All Squared Away, Garrett Gomez, 10-1; Temple's Door, Tyler Baze, 8-1; Richard's Kid, Edwin Maldonado, 6-1; Dreamcatcher, David Flores, 12-1; Golden Itiz, Victor Espinoza, 12-1; Bridge of Gold, Julien Leparoux, 20-1; Fast Track, Orlando Mojica, 30-1; Smart Ellis, Flavien Prat, 12-1; Fire With Fire, Martin Garcia, 10-1; Shaun Washington, Brice Blanc, 20-1; Slim Shadey, Gary Stevens, 9-2; and Huntsville, Corey Nakatani, 15-1.
McAnally called the No. 1 post position for Interaction "perfect."
In other San Marcos news:
Doug O'Neill on Richard's Kid, who worked six furlongs in company with Russdiculous on Santa Anita's fast main track last Saturday morning in 1:12.40 under jockey Kevin Krigger: "He finished up really strong. He looked really good."
Trainer Patrick Biancone on Bridge of Gold, who makes his second American start and his first since last August: "I've had him for three months. He seems to have acclimated well. He worked good, but when we run him, we'll see where we are. Hopefully he adapts well to American racing."
Joe Torre won't be at Santa Anita to see Game On Dude run in the Santa Anita Handicap on March 2. A prior commitment to manage the United States team in the World Baseball Classic competition that starts the same day as the Big 'Cap precludes the baseball great from watching the multi-millionaire gelding he owns in part run in the Grade I classic at a mile and a quarter.
Torre won't be lacking in updates, however. He'll get them first hand from Game On Dude's Hall of Fame trainer, Bob Baffert.
"Joe's a real gentleman," Baffert said Thursday morning. "He loves horse racing and he checks in with me once in a while on Game On Dude. The little time he gets way (from baseball), he tries to spend it at the track. He loves racing and he loves the people."
Torre's schedule allowed him to be at Santa Anita Sunday to see Game On Dude win the Grade II San Antonio Stakes by 6 ½ lengths.
In other news from the Baffert barn:
Impressive maiden winner War Academy worked six furlongs from the gate Monday in 1:12.60 under jockey Martin Garcia. "I just wanted to sharpen him up," Baffert said in explaining the gate move. "I don't know what I'm doing yet (as to his next race).
"The gray horse (Flashback) will go in the San Felipe (Stakes on March 9)."
John Sadler said Triple Crown hopeful Demonic, who worked five furlongs Tuesday on 1:00.20 under Garrett Gomez, is nominated to the San Vicente (at seven furlongs on Feb. 17) and the San Felipe (at 1 1/16 miles on March 9).
"He'll probably go in one of the San races," the trainer said.
Also on the 3-year-old front, Sham Stakes winner Goldencents, pointing to the San Felipe, worked six furlongs Tuesday in a bullet 1:12.40 for Doug O'Neill.
"He worked great," the trainer said. "He brings it every day. I wish they were all like him. He's very willing."
Amazombie is back and rarin' to go. The 2011 Breeders' Cup Sprint champion had his first official workout Thursday morning since returning from a layoff following a disappointing performance in the 2012 Breeders' Cup Sprint last Nov. 3.
The California-bred gelding owned by Tom Sanford and trainer Bill Spawr went three furlongs in 38.80 and could make his stakes return at Santa Anita in the Grade II Potrero Grande Stakes at 6 ½ furlongs on April 6.
"I was miffed," Spawr joked. "He worked too fast. I wanted him to go 40. He worked a quarter mile about four days ago, but those short works aren't published. It's just like an open gallop.
"The track has been playing fine recently for Amazombie's (stretch-running) style," Spawr said. "We'll see how long it lasts. We'd love to run here (in the Potrero Grande). We'll look at that."
As for two-time stakes-winning filly Ismene, who disappointed in her return to the races last month after recovering from a chip in her right knee more than a year ago, "We're just jogging her right now," Spawr said.
With the major prep races on the road to the Kentucky Derby beginning in earnest, HRTV will offer racing fans the latest information on the Triple Crown trail when it premieres the weekly Fasig-Tipton Pursuit of the Crown, presented by Twinspires.com show, beginning tonight at 5 p.m. Pacific Time.
The comprehensive show will not only focus on the upcoming 139th edition of the "Run for the Roses" from Churchill Downs on Saturday, May 4, but all Triple Crown stops -- the Preakness (May 18) from Pimlico Race Course, and the Belmont Stakes from Belmont Park (June 8).
Laffit Pincay III will host the show, while Hall of Fame jockey Gary Stevens, a three-time Kentucky Derby winner, will deliver his unique insight as analyst. Scott Hazelton will again provide additional Triple Crown news and perspective.
The 30-minute show provides detailed interviews with key owners, trainers, jockeys of Derby/Triple Crown contenders, in addition to offering analysis and profiles of the top 3-year-olds from HRTV's experts.

FINISH LINES: Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies champion Beholder worked five furlongs on Santa Anita's fast main track Thursday morning in 1:01.80.

Beholder is ticketed for the Grade I Las Virgenes Stakes at one mile on March 2 . . .

New Orleans, LA (SportsNetwork.com) - Tulane rewarded head football coach Curtis Johnson with a three-year contract extension Saturday after leading the program to its first bowl bid in 11 years.
The Green Wave went 7-5 overall and 5-3 in Conference USA in Johnson's second season at the helm, earning a berth in the Dec. 21 New Orleans Bowl opposite Louisiana. It was Tulane's first winning campaign since 2002, when the school went 8-5 and captured the inaugural Hawaii Bowl.
Johnson, who spent six years as the wide receivers coach for the NFL's Saints prior to coming to Tulane, is now under contract through 2020.
"I'm very pleased to announce an extension through 2020 for Coach Johnson," said Tulane athletics director Rick Dickson. "He and his staff have quickly established a winning culture within the Tulane cornerstones of excellence in scholarship, sport and service. We look forward to working together through this new era for Tulane football, as we go forward into our bowl game, our new conference our and new stadium."
The Green Wave went 2-10 in Johnson's first year prior to becoming one of the most improved teams in FBS this season. Tulane's five conference wins in 2013 were also the school's most since 1998.

Upward of 500 middle-school girls from around the state will spend the day at the University of Maine March 14 for the 26th Expanding Your Horizons conference, designed to introduce youths to careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
Cosponsored by the UMaine Women's Resource Center, Division of Lifelong Learning, University of Maine Cooperative Extension and Maine EPSCoR at the University of Maine, the conference this year includes two educational forums for teachers led by the Maine Girls Collaborative Project, in addition to dozens of hands-on experiences in math- and science-oriented fields for the youths, most led by UMaine faculty and staff.
Students will begin their day at 9 a.m. in Hauck Auditorium for an opening presentation and keynote address, then disperse throughout the campus in groups to attend interactive workshops scheduled on the hour from 10 a.m.–2 p.m. A representative from Hardy Girls Healthy Women in Waterville will make the keynote presentation.
At 9 a.m. in 100 D.P. Corbett Business Building, teachers will gather for a Maine Girls Collaborative Project panel discussion about working with girls with disabilities in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields. At 1 p.m. in D.P. Corbett, an afternoon workshop will explore strategies for encouraging Native American girls to pursue STEM subjects in school. Both sessions are free and public.
The panel discussions for teachers are new this year, according to Sharon Barker, director of the Women's Resource Center at UMaine and event forums coordinator.
Joining the discussion about working with girls with disabilities will be Janet May, coordinator of transition and adults at the Center for Community Inclusion and Disability Studies at UMaine. Maria Girouard, assistant coordinator of outreach and student development at the UMaine Wabanaki Center and a Native American history and culture educator, will participate in the afternoon session on guiding Native American girls toward STEM careers.
The underpinning of the conference is to address a shortage of women in STEM fields. Conference participants will have opportunities to meet and hear stories from successful women working in science and math fields.
Expanding Your Horizons has been successful in giving seventh- and eighth-grade girls a better understanding of relationships between math and science and possible career choices, and informing them about nontraditional or less-publicized career choices, according to the Women's Resource Center.
Barker says the event literally expands girls' horizons and understanding of the wide range of STEM careers available to them.
Among the speakers and workshop leaders participating in Expanding Your Horizons and Maine Girls Collaborative Project forums are: Emma Albee, a recent University of New England graduate who was a high school intern at The Jackson Laboratory in Bar Harbor and now has a degree in medical biology; Jackson Laboratory researchers David Bergstrom and Carol Bult; Paige Collins, a resource teacher at Mount Desert Island High School; and Jane Disney, staff scientist and director of the Community Environmental Health Laboratory, MDI Biological Laboratory in Salisbury Cove.

Stats are great, but they don't help you get a cup of coffee or a good ice cream cone (with sprinkles) when you're visiting the Minnesota Vikings Training Camp. Courtesy of the DN Facebook readers,...
No matter how old or how young you are, there's just something great about football. In that spirit, the Minnesota Vikings will have a Family Day at the 2012 Training Camp at Minnesota State University, Mankato with family-friendly activities all day long. On Saturday, August 4, there will be a Jr. Training Camp and a Jr. Cheerleader Clinic. Both events are free to children of all ages. Registration forms for the events are available online. Families will also enjoy the Night Practice at Blakeslee Stadium at 7:00pm, Team Introductions following the practice at 9:30pm, and fireworks at 9:45pm. Make your plans now so your family can spend a day with the Vikings!
After a long off season, football is nearly here. The Minnesota Vikings will report to training camp on July 26 and activities start July 27 in Mankato, Minnesota. Because so many of the events at Training Camp are open to the public and free, it is a great chance to bring the whole family out to get a much-needed dose of football this summer. This link will take you to all the Training Camp info you need to plan your trip to Mankato. Don't miss out on the activities for kids like the Junior Training Camp or the Youth Cheerleading Clinic--both events are free!
A little resilience can go a long way. Here's a quick look at who bounced back during the Minnesota Vikings' win over the Seattle Seahawks.

An Intact Forest Landscape (IFL) is an unbroken expanse of natural ecosystems within the zone of current forest extent, showing no signs of significant human activity, and large enough that all native biodiversity, including viable populations of wide-ranging species, could be maintained.
The IFL concept and its technical definition were introduced to help create, implement, and monitor policies concerning the forest degradation at the regional-to-global levels. The essence of the IFL method is to use freely available medium spatial resolution satellite imagery to establish the boundaries of large undeveloped forest areas, so called Intact Forest Landscapes (IFL), and to use these boundaries as a baseline for forest degradation monitoring. Developed by a group of non-governmental environmental organizations (Greenpeace, World Resources Institute, and Transparent World), the IFL concept, mapping and monitoring algorithms have been used both in regional and global forest monitoring projects and in scientific research.
The world's IFL map is the first global assessment of large undeveloped forest areas based on medium spatial resolution satellite imagery. The extent of forest degradation (understood as a reduction in ecological integrity across a forest landscape) could be measured at the global, biome and national levels based on the distribution and proportion of IFL areas. The IFL method could be used for fast and cost-effective assessment and monitoring of forest degradation in the context of REDD+ initiative.
The significance of the IFL analysis method and map lies in its power to enable and catalyze practical conservation planning and action with regard to large undeveloped forest landscapes. Our map allows a user to determine whether a specific activity falls within or outside an IFL with a margin of error of less than 1 km. This map allows direct quantitative assessment and comparison of remaining large natural forest areas at global and national levels. The use of our maps has been mandated across the boreal regions as a condition for sustainability certification by the Forest Stewardship Council. All up-to-date IFL maps and IFL monitoring results are available online on this web-site in formats suitable for use in professional GIS as well as in freeware GIS browsers.
The IFL Mapping Team is continuing to improve the IFL base map and to provide periodically updates as new data, technologies, and more sophisticated sources of information appears. Local experts could play an important role in map improvement and update providing the latest information and comments for their regions of expertise. For this purpose, a continuous IFL map review process has been organized on the current web-site. The Open IFL tool have been designed by opensource geospatial solutions company NextGIS to make this reviewing process easy and effective by using Google Maps® API integrated with Web-based GIS and internet forum platform.

The Next Phase of My Office and Fabric choices
24 comments:
- Saga World said...
While you think of keeping up with times, it is very important to evolve yourself with changing fashion trends. Fabric shops in UAE Dubai can be a hotspot for all the fashion arbiters who believe in setting their own style statement. The next time you come to Dubai, don't forget to handpick some exclusive apparel-both formal and informal.

Chicken Taco Cups Recipe
For holiday parties and summer picnics, try these stuffed wonton cups with a Southwest-style chicken filling. You can freeze them, too. Just reheat after thawing. —Lee Ann Lowe, Gray, Maine
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 envelope reduced-sodium taco seasoning
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 jar (16 ounces) salsa, divided
- 2 cups (8 ounces) shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese, divided
- 36 wonton wrappers
- Sour cream, chopped green onions and chopped ripe olives, optional
- Sprinkle chicken with taco seasoning. In a large skillet coated with cooking spray, cook and stir the chicken over medium heat for 5 minutes or until meat is no longer pink.
- Transfer chicken to a food processor; cover and process until chopped. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, onion, half of the salsa and 1 cup cheese.
- Press wonton wrappers into miniature muffin cups coated with cooking spray. Bake at 375° for 5 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Spoon rounded tablespoonfuls of chicken mixture into cups; top with remaining salsa and cheese. Bake 15 minutes longer or until heated through. Serve warm. Garnish with sour cream, green onions and olives if desired. Yield: 3 dozen.

I made these tonight & I made the mistake of using a tsp of taco seasoning. I did use leftover turkey & chopped it real fine. Going to make this again though with more taco seasoning.

Agate to celebrate visitor center's 20th anniversary
Agate Fossil Beds will celebrate the 20th anniversary of its Visitor Center and Museum Saturday. The national monument is located in northwest Nebraska's Sioux county, near Harrison.
Joanne Kyral was the Superintendent when the ribbon-cutting for the visitor center took place in 1987.
Kyral helped form the Friends of Agate Fossil Beds group that raised $350,000 for the project, money that gave then-Congresswoman Virginia Smith the leverage to secure a $1-1/2-million dollar federal appropriation.
Kyral, now retired and living in Colorado, says it was true community effort.
Kyral says paved roads and new staff housing that followed at Agate would not have been possible without the Visitor Center.
Starting the celebration Saturday will be a talk at 1:30 by National Park Service Curator and Colorado State University instructor Greg McDonald titled "the Equus Files" Fossil Horses and the National Parks."
That will be followed at 3:00 by the birthday party, with cake and visitors being encouraged to share their memories of Agate Fossil Beds.

Giants RB Andre Brown had his four-game suspension lifted on Friday. He was suspended in late March for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing drugs.
Brown tweeted that the suspension had been lifted, and multiple reports confirmed it.
Brown told CBSSports.com last week that he was appealing. He claimed the substance was Adderall, "something that I've been on since I've been in the league," he said.
Brown spent last season on the Giants' practice squad. He only has two carries in his two seasons in the NFL.

All Canon using pro's are feeling rather smug about the 1DX when compared to the D4.where did you get that idea/info?
Simple - where have you had Nikon pros jumping for joy with the D4?
Heck Joe Mcnally's launch blurb produced nothing that any one could get excited about.
Most with D3s's for weddings etc. are not even bothering to upgrade!
Canon guys on the other hand have got a camera that comfortably claims the Pro model crown. Which part of the 1DX improvements are not beneficial? 61pt AF? ISO to 51k? 12FPS? Gbit Ethernet? Dual CF? Duplication of controls for portrait and landscape mode? Video improvements?
The only issue is the moving from APS-H to FF, and for most users that will end up becoming a minor adjustment in real world terms.

In the case of Urijah Faber, the former WEC featherweight champion who lost to Jose Aldo on Saturday, it's going to be at least a few months before he can put aside the ridiculous notion that he needs to retire.
Here's what Victor Contreras, the Deputy Sports Editor of Faber's hometown Sacramento Bee, writes that Faber should do:
Retire. Retire now, not after another loss in which you're cheered entering the octagon and booed leaving it.This is, in a word, stupid. Faber doesn't need to retire at age 30 just because he can't beat Aldo. He has plenty of good fights left in him and should return to the cage just as soon as his badly bruised leg will allow him.
Faber couldn't beat Aldo on Saturday night or any other day of the week. No shame in that.
Aldo is a young, powerful kid. He didn't even use most of his aggressive arsenal against a foe he truly respected.
Faber has made Sacramento proud, restoring pride to a once-great fighting city. He's a true warrior who has survived many battles.
Why risk tarnishing that image or risk the chance of injury?
Take a bow, Urijah.

Saints WR Robert Meachem will be sidelined until training camp at the earliest after undergoing surgery on his toe, according to reports.
The procedure repaired torn cartilage in the second toe of his left foot.
"It's going to set him back," head coach Sean Payton told neworleans.com. "Our goal is to get him back in time for the start of training camp, the first week or so."
New Orleans' camp opens on July 29.
Meachem had 45 catches for 722 yards and nine touchdowns last season after making just 12 catches in the first two seasons of his career.

PLATTSBURGH — Daniel W. Burke remained in critical condition at Fletcher Allen Hospital in Burlington on Friday.
The Plattsburgh man, 60, set himself afire in his home at 3 Charles Way in the city on Wednesday night in an attempt to kill himself, police say, and the investigation is continuing.
The mobile home, divided into two living units by a wall, was destroyed in the blaze; left homeless were Burke's girlfriend, Sandra Smith, 62, and Donald Giddings, 19, who also lived in the structure.
Giddings said that, on Tuesday, he overheard Burke saying he had 5 gallons of gas in the back of his truck.
And Burke had talked about using it to set the house afire, Giddings said, "but I didn't think anything of it."
A neighbor who heard breaking glass called police just before 10 p.m. on Wednesday, and four City of Plattsburgh police officers who responded were trying to talk to Burke from outside the home when the lights went out and fire glowed from the bedroom.
Officers Joel Vassar, Richard Tucker, Charles Wolfe and Adam Wood broke down the door and found Burke lying on the bed, the lower half of his body "completely engulfed in flames," Lt. Patrick Rascoe said.
The officers beat at the flames, their uniforms catching fire, as they carried Burke out of the burning mobile home.
With first- and second-degree burns on half his body, he was taken to CVPH Medical Center in Plattsburgh then transferred to the Burlington hospital.
Burke told the officers that he was trying to kill himself, City Police Chief Desmond Racicot said.
The investigation was moving forward, he said Friday.
"There will be a point where the victim will have to be interviewed," he said.
The residence and personal items in it have been deemed a total loss, Racicot said.

The New England Patriots have re-signed Edelman. He was an unrestricted free agent.||||||| The 26-year-old former seventh-round draft choice caught 21 passes for 235 yards and three touchdowns last season before going on injured reserve with a foot injury. In four NFL seasons, he has 69 receptions for 714 yards and four touchdowns. He has also returned three punts for touchdowns, including a franchise-record 94-yarder against Miami in the 2010 season.
The New England Patriots have placed Edelman on injured reserve with a foot injury and signed Donte' Stallworth at that position.||||||| Edelman was on crutches with a walking boot on his right foot after the Patriots' 23-16 win at the Miami Dolphins last Sunday. The team's announcement Tuesday did not specify the nature of the injury. Edelman has five touchdowns this season - three on receptions, one on a punt return and one on a fumble recovery.
Prosecutors have dropped an indecent assault and battery charge against Edelman, saying evidence suggests he just briefly grabbed the hand of a woman who accused him of groping her. The 25-year-old Edelman was accused of grabbing the woman's crotch during a Halloween party at a Boston nightclub.||||||| On Thursday, prosecutors said they decided to drop the charge after reviewing video surveillance and witness statements and interviewing the woman several times. They said video indicates Edelman had just "fleeting" contact with the woman, and didn't commit a crime.
Edelman has been released on personal recognizance after a brief court appearance on a charge of indecent assault and battery on a woman.||||||| A criminal complaint application filed Tuesday accuses the 25-year-old Edelman of groping a woman at a Boston nightclub. Edelman and his attorney declined to comment after the hearing. He was ordered not to return to the Storyville nightclub or have any contact with the accuser or witnesses. Police say Edelman was arrested at about 1:30 a.m. outside the club and later released on bail. The complaint says he denied the allegations.
Edelman had six catches for 44 yards and both New England touchdowns as the Patriots lost 33-14 to Baltimore in a wild card game Sunday.||||||| Edelman could have some fantasy value in 2010, especially if Wes Welker has trouble returning from major knee surgery before the start of the season.

Firefighters in Lincoln County had to rescue at least ten people after heavy rains turned area parking lots into flooded areas, including the Denver Food Lion.
We're told firefighters had to rescue seven people trapped inside vehicles in front of the Food Lion at Highways 16 and 73 on Friday night.
Officials say the victims were stuck in as much as 5 feet of water.
Firefighters say the flooding was caused by debris covering storm drains.
The nearby Rite Aid parking lot also looked more like a stream.
Officials tell us they rescued three people in two other flood related incidents.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Changes are planned for Alaska's Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race following the asphyxiation death of a dog that was buried in snow by extreme winds, organizers of the 1,000-mile race said Wednesday.
Race officials said they also plan to meet with the owners of 5-year-old Dorado. The dog was found dead at a checkpoint Friday, four days after he was removed from the race because he was moving stiffly. He was kept in Unalakleet to await transportation home.
Dorado belonged to the team of Iditarod rookie Paige Drobny of Fairbanks, 38, who continued in the race with the rest of her team, finishing Thursday in 34th place.
Drobny's husband, Cody Strathe, said this week that the couple asked the Iditarod Trail Committee to develop new protocols for the care of dogs that have been dropped from the race to Nome on Alaska's wind-battered coast.
The Iditarod Trail Committee said planned changes include construction of dog shelters at two major checkpoints, and more frequent checks on the animals.
"This type of self-examination is an important part of ITC's historical commitment to the improvement of the welfare of the canine athletes that annually participate in the Race," officials said in a statement.
Race officials declined to assign blame to anyone, including a volunteer veterinarian who last checked on dogs that were tethered outside at the Unalakleet checkpoint around 3 a.m. Friday.
"ITC does not believe it or any others acted negligently in any way relating to the death of Dorado or that Dorado's death was foreseeable," the statement says.
Race officials said the severe weather prevented planes from landing, so more than 130 dropped dogs accumulated at the village.
More than two dozen race volunteers moved as many dogs as possible, placing slightly more than 100 inside an available hangar, according to organizers. The rest of the dogs, including Dorado, were moved to a more protected area considered the safest place to minimize accumulation of blowing snow.

PA-Sen: Joe Sestak Sounds More Like He's Getting In Every Day
by Todd Beeton, Tue May 05, 2009 at 03:09:45 AM EDT
After meeting with Joe Sestak on Monday, SEIU President Andy Stern tweeted the following a few minutes ago:
Sestak is serious about Senate race. Doing Senate Finance Roundtable today on health care.
Sestak's own words to Greg Sargent following the meeting certainly seem to back up this assessment:
"I cannot see the unions across the board supporting Specter if he cannot support EFCA," Sestak said in an interview with me a few moments ago. "[Stern] let it be known that it's very much on the top of their agenda."
Sestak cautioned that Stern didn't directly address the 2010 primary. But he said the meeting went "great," strongly suggesting that SEIU is seriously considering supporting him or another primary challenger to Specter. "It was very clear that there were a number of issues we agree on," Sestak said of his much-anticipated meeting with Stern.
Sestak also confirmed that he'd almost certainly get in the race if Specter doesn't show a major ideological change of heart. "If he doesn't demonstrate that he has shifted his position on a number of issues, I would not hesitate at all to get in," Sestak said.
This is much stronger language than Sestak has used previously and, as Chris Bowers observes, it virtually assures a Sestak challenge considering how defiant Specter has been in recent interviews in terms of his unwillingness to shift left to conform to his new partisan designation. But ironically, while Specter's stubbornness makes Sestak's entrance into the race more likely, Sestak's challenge will itself make Specter shifting left more likely.
Bowers again:
It is a tough call for Sestak, but at the very least he is doing progressives a service by keeping his threat of a primary challenge so open and public. If Specter actually is going to start acting like a more reliable Democrat, there is a much better chance that he will do so with the sword of Sestak hanging over his head, then with the primary path cleared for him. As he revealed in his partisan switch, Specter clearly wavers when under threat of defeat.
Which makes Sestak's entrance into the race a win win for us when it comes to making a stronger more Democratic Senate.

Seven Steps to Ideal Weight
Quantum physics tells us that when we go beyond the mask of matter, the universe is revealed to be energy and information. Your body and the environment in which you live are intimately interwoven fields of energy and information. All living beings face the challenge of how to acquire energy and information from the environment and transform it into the energy and information of their bodies. Eating is the process of acquiring, and digestion is the process of using energy and information from our environment.
We describe the energy component of food by the number of calories it contains and the informational component of food by its nutrients—vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals. To get the energy and information we require, we need food that supplies optimal levels of calories and nutrients.
Unfortunately, the common Western diet tends to provide too many calories and not enough vital nutrients. As a result, 60 percent of Americans are overweight and almost 40 percent are carrying enough excess weight to affect their health. Even our children are showing an alarming rise in the incidence of obesity.
The six tastes
The human brain sends hunger signals when it becomes aware of the need for energy and information. As we eat, our taste buds send messages to the brain informing it if we have ingested foods that provide the energy and information we need. The six tastes, known in Ayurveda as sweet, sour, salty, pungent, bitter, and astringent are the codes that inform our nervous systems of a meal's nutritional content. If we sample foods that correspond to each of these tastes throughout the day, our meals will provide a wide assortment of health-promoting nutrients. If we do not have all flavors available, the brain is not satisfied and continues to send signals to eat more. As a result, we take in too many calories but remain malnourished
Additionally, in every category of taste, some foods are highly nutritious and others should be eaten more sparingly. Favor fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, cereals, breads, and nuts. If you do not want to become vegetarian, reduce your intake of red meats, favoring cold-water fish and egg whites. Minimize your intake of highly refined sugar and wheat products.
The role of emotions
Our emotions also play an essential role in our eating habits. We learned early in life how putting something in our mouths soothed upset feelings. Whether it was a breast, a bottle, a pacifier, or a thumb, all of us were conditioned to associate our mouths with comfort. It's not surprising that adults under stress resort to smoking, drinking, or excessive eating. In addition, when we experience stress, our bodies release hormones that cause us to conserve energy, and recent studies have shown that disturbed sleep patterns associated with stress increase levels of hormones responsible for appetite.
What can we do to regain and maintain our ideal weight? Commit to these seven practices for one month, and your b...

Since cloudy skies have prevailed much of the time during the past week, it doesn't seem like a very dry November. But during the first 12 days of the month, precipitation has amounted to less than a quarter of an inch at most locations in Otsego County, and that's about 20% of the normal precipitation.
Since temperatures have been colder than normal the past few days, it doesn't seem like a warm November. However, temperatures have averaged four degrees above normal so far this month, and we'll go right back to very mild weather to start this weekend, as the jet stream stays well to the north, and a series of storm systems move to our west and bring a southwesterly flow.
This pattern will change on Sunday as a cold front moves through our area and upper-level winds shift to the northwest and another large high pressure area dips southward from central Canada.
On Friday as low pressure lifts northward to western New York, rain in the morning will give way to variable cloudiness and a few breaks of sunshine in the afternoon, with a southerly wind and highs around 60 degrees.
Another low pressure system will develop along the mid-Atlantic coast and track to the east of New England on Saturday, keeping the heavy rain well to the east across southern and eastern New England.
We'll get occasional showers and highs well above normal, in the mid and upper 50's. As the storm moves well to the northeast on Sunday a northwesterly flow will take over.

Contract Attorneys
Lawyer's Lament: Pressure to Review 80 Docs an Hour, for $23 an Hour
Posted Oct 21, 2009 8:52 AM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
A contract lawyer's complaint about a directive to review 80 documents an hour is raising questions about whether quantity sacrifices quality.
The lawyer, who was being paid about $23 an hour for the document review project, told the blog Temporary Attorney that the directive was in this e-mail: "Please pick up the pace. They are expecting you to do about 80 docs an hour and all of you are less than half that. Changes will be made soon if this does not change asap."
Legal Blog Watch noted the blog post and questioned whether any thoughtful review can be done amid pressures to review about one document a minute. "Mandates like the one in the e-mail above force a choice: Get fired or perform a woefully deficient review," Legal Blog Watch says.
Commenters to the Temporary Attorney post told of even more onerous requirements. One said the pressure to work faster comes because outsourcing companies are willing to do the same job more cheaply, billing by the document rather than the hour.

The Cowboys signed WR Jesse Holly from their practice squad on Friday and released OT Robert Brewster.
Holly spent all of the 2009 campaign and the first five weeks of this season on Dallas' practice squad; he has also spent time on the Bengals' practice squad. He is expected to contribute on the Cowboys' special teams, as he was one of the final cuts in training camp after an impressive preseason. The 6-2, 211 pound receiver originally joined the team after winning Michael Irvin's reality show on Spike TV, "4th and Long."
Brewster, the team's third-round choice in 2009, played in one game this season for the Cowboys after missing all of last year on injured reserve with a torn pectoral muscle.

A man suspected of shooting his next-door neighbor in a dispute Tuesday morning took his own life, the Hernando County Sheriff's Office said.
The discovery of Thomas Brocato – dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound on the second floor of his Spring Hill home - came after deputies, including a SWAT team, spent hours trying to find and make contact with him following the shooting.
Deputies tried multiple methods to make contact with Brocato, 58, who they believed was inside his home, and a SWAT team made entry after there was no response.
The team moved especially slowly and carefully because they smelled gasoline as they approached, said Hernando County Sheriff Al Nienhuis. Once inside, they discovered the suspect had doused himself in gasoline before taking his life, he said.
Throughout the day, part of the neighborhood was roped off with yellow crime-scene tape and some residents were evacuated from their homes.
The operation began shortly after 9 a.m. when deputies responded to a neighbor's home on Siam Drive, where a man was found with gunshot wounds. The victim was later identified as William Stelling and the sheriff's office said he was in stable condition late Tuesday.
Since the shooting apparently took place at the victim's home, it's unclear whether the suspect was invited to the house or "barged in," the sheriff said.

JACKSBORO (WATE) - Snow flurries started falling in Campbell County just after 9 p.m. Tuesday evening, and road crews were on standby.
"Our crews are rested and on call. Once the snow starts sticking all of our trucks will get to work," explained Dennis Potter, Campbell County road superintendent.
The county has 11 trucks assigned to various areas in the region.
"Our main priority is that emergency crews can go where they need to, that the sheriff's department can respond to calls and that people can get to work in the morning," Potter explained.
Drivers in the area weren't overly concerned with the project one to three inches of snow but did plan to proceed with caution.
"If it does freeze I'm going to have a problem because I have an appointment tomorrow," said Campbell County resident Jeff Carr.
"It's been really quiet out. Most people are staying off the roads and trying to get somewhere safe and warm because you just never know," said Charlene Allen of Campbell County.
"I don't think they'll be too bad," said Knoxville resident David Des. "I'm hoping its too warm for it to really do much."
Potter believes the recent warm temperatures will help his crews.
"It's a wet snow, and so we think we'll be able to plow it pretty easily."
The heavy rains earlier on Tuesday made it difficult to prep for the storm. TDOT crews were unable to brine the roads until the rain stopped. TDOT crews across the East Tennessee region were called in around 10 p.m. to began salting the highways and major roadways.

There are a lot of reasons the NCAA is in a tough spot on what to do with Penn State over its inaction over Jerry Sandusky, its tragic over-allegiance to Joe Paterno, and the perhaps criminal negligence of its administration. But I thought Rick Bozich isolated a good one in his column today -- Penn State isn't the only one making athletics bigger than life.
The following quote should be enough to show you how far this reverence for Paterno went. Read this quote about Paterno from December, 2010:
"His 'total-person' approach to student-athletes, emphasizing academics and personal accountability is a terrific example of everything the NCAA stands for. Coach Paterno has distinguished himself to the world by his wins on the field, but he has endeared himself to thousands of student-athletes who have learned through his leadership that success in the classroom and in life is the greatest accomplishment. For me Coach Paterno is the definitive role model of what it means to be a college coach."
The speaker? NCAA president Mark Emmert. And the occasion was announcing that Paterno would be presented the one of the NCAA's highest honors: The Gerald R. Ford Award. Paterno was given a standing ovation by a roomful of academic and administrative officials that night -- something that rarely happens.
I want you to think about this. On Jan. 13, 2011, Joe Paterno was presented this award. On Jan. 12, 2011, one day earlier, he was before a Grand Jury testifying about what he'd been told about Jerry Sandusky.
In the end, I think the NCAA needs to punish what it can punish from its bylaws, and to leave aside what it can't punish from its bylaws -- because those penalties would pale in comparison to the crimes, anyway.
If ever a school needed to do without football for a season, it's this one, and if university leadership were stronger, that's what it would do. But that's not going to happen, and in the absence of that, everything else is just symbolic.
It seems too simplistic to say that a great many people, the NCAA included, were duped by a lot of things. But a great many of us were duped willingly.

Bieber fever has officially gripped the Queen City. Who knew an 18 year old pop singer could bring uptown Charlotte to a standstill?
But that's exactly what happened Tuesday night when thousands of adoring fans, swarmed Time Warner Cable Arena where the singer performed.
Most of the fans, young girls were overcome with excitement, others with tears.
"I love Justin Bieber," said one fan tearfully. "I love him so much."
Another fan, Ashton Zogorean, came up from Charleston, SC to take in the show.
"Justin means, like the whole entire world to me," she said breathlessly. "You have no clue. I would do anything to meet him. I've been a Bieleber since 2009."
Bielebers, that's what the fans call themselves.
And 'the Biebs', as he's sometimes called, isn't just for the young but also the young at heart.
Just ask Ashton's mom, Celeste.
"Anything for the Biebs that's how we feel," she said proudly. "This mama has Bieber fever."
A fever so powerful, she didn't mind shelling out some serious cash buying five tickets at 100 bucks a pop.
"Not only has my daughter has been waiting for 8 months, but we've been hearing about non-stop," said Zogorean. "I got thousands of dollars invested in seeing this little Justin Bieber here."
But that's just how far fans are willing to go for the young man whose made millions singing to fans.
Leslie and Sarah Stalvey made the short trip from Mt. Holly to see Bieber.
"We came two years ago to his first concert in Charlotte," said Sarah Stalvey.
Apparently the two teens from Mount Holly didn't get enough that time and are back for more.
Another fun fact about Justin Bieber: he is now the most followed celebrity on Twitter, surpassing Lady Gaga with more than 33 million followers.

People are gonna say mean things about this kid, but you have to keep things in perspective. Before there was the Internet, nerds actually tried to play sports — usually by themselves. (It's true. I have the scars to prove it.)
I'd like to make fun of him and his "slam dunk… little thing," but I'm too busy thanking my lucky stars there's no footage of me diving for footballs I threw to myself in the back yard. Oh well. At least I didn't wear glasses. NERD!
(Thanks to Deadspin. Nice find, Will.)
