The anticipated showdown between UFC lightweight champion B.J. Penn and number one contender Kenny Florian will finally take place. A blog post on Penn's official website stated that Florian has already signed his bout agreement and "as for B.J., we received the bout agreement (Friday) afternoon and plan on making this fight happen."
The post states the bout will headline UFC 101 on Aug. 8 in Philadelphia.
The bout will be Penn's first defense of his lightweight title since defeating Sean Sherk at UFC 84 in May of last year. It will also mark his first action in the Octagon since a loss to UFC welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre at UFC 94 in January, which has been mired in controversy over accusations of improper usage of Vaseline by St. Pierre's camp.
It's good to see that the talent-rich UFC lightweight division won't be in a holding pattern any longer, and Penn will be back fighting at a more suitable weight for his frame. Certainly, Florian has improved immensely over the years; his is a great story, especially from the UFC perspective. This should be an easy fight to sell given its implications for the division and the skill with which these two combatants communicate their respective messages to fans.

Earlier this month at Unwashed Advocate, Eric Mayer, a lawyer based in Overland Park, Kansas, wrote about his eventual desire to relocate to small-town Colby, Kansas.
He arrived at this conclusion in part based on Colby's availability of work, air quality, availability of services, weather, things to do, cost of living and quality of work.
What looks good to Mayer may also look good to you—or not. So this week we'd like to ask you: What attributes will you (or did you) consider when deciding where to practice law? What other elements would be on your own checklist? And based on what you're looking for in a location—are you living where you want to be?
Answer in the comments. And answer the poll (multiple times, if needed) to let us know which items on Mayer's checklist matter to you.
Read the answers to last week's question: Have you had lucky breaks in your legal career?
Featured answer:
Posted by Perspective: "Twenty years ago when I was a senior associate, a very big plaintiff's civil case came in that required a TRO on short notice. The big rainmaker who brought it in left a couple of messages for a litigation partner who did not return his calls. So in frustration, he came to me and asked me to handle it—basically because he could not find an available litigation partner. So I jumped in (terrified, to be honest), and got the TRO. After bonding with the clients, they told the rainmaker that they would just as soon have me as their lead counsel. So I went on to handle the case, which was very high-profile in our jurisdiction, and to try it before a jury against one of the largest firms in our area of the country. We won (again, in all honesty, mostly because of the facts of the case) and almost overnight, the phone started to ring with referrals in that area. I'm now a practice group chair in that area in a large firm and am living happily ever after."

BOSTON (AP) — Voters in several Massachusetts cities are heading to the polls to whittle down the number of candidates running for mayor.
In Lawrence, Mayor William Lantigua faces five challengers in Tuesday's preliminary election, with the two top-vote getters advancing to the general election in November.
Lantigua's first term as mayor has been marked by several controversies, including allegations in a recent lawsuit from Attorney General Martha Coakley that he violated campaign finance laws.
Holyoke Mayor Alex Morse, the state's youngest mayor at age 24, has four challengers in his bid for a second term.
Newton Mayor Setti Warren, who briefly ran for the U.S. Senate seat eventually won by Elizabeth Warren, squares off against three other candidates.
Mayoral votes are also scheduled Tuesday in Amesbury, Brockton, Everett, Holyoke, Lynn, Newburyport and Salem.

We arrived around 9:00 PM and were greeted warmly. I was surprised that the same clerk was stocking the breakfast buffet the next morning. But that left the desk unmanned. Neither job was being done as well as it should but it wasn't a huge issue because the person was obviously doing her best and was a pleasant person. Rooms... More

Flumo Netlabel
Manu Heredia was born in Puerto Ordaz, Venezuela in 1981. Strongly influenced by 70s and 80s music, as he grew listening to his fathers records played at home (Electric Light Orchestra, Lipps Inc, Afrika Bambaataa, Arthur Baker, David Mancuso, Larry Leaven or Mr. Fingers, among others). This passion made possible the fact that being only 8, he began studying percussion. At 10 he already read music and played the piano.
Since 2006 he produces, deeply influenced by house, deep and tech-house. At the same time he collaborates and works in different projects with different net labels, and digital record labels, besides putting his signature in various works with Nahuel Vicente, under the pseudonym of Frequency Friends.
Recently he has entered both as an artist and producer in Turbulence Calm Records (Chicago, USA), and is an associated of Redmo Records (Barcelona, Spain), and also collaborates with different labels such as Flumo, Neovinyl or Fruitclubs.
We are really pleased to present to all of you, in the usual format of our Flumo Net Label creations, this Black Remains EP, by this Venezuelan man settled in the magic isle of Menorca.
This is a superb creation, subtle and intimate. What makes this collection of tracks so attractive is the way the artist homogenizes his work, while at the same time it absorbs from a rich variety of stylistic shades. This proves both Heredia sensibility and the wide musical influence he has been exposed to since he was a child.
It is true that tech-house is the main leitmotiv, as we found lots of reflections, influences, and tributes to it.
All Stars is a piece of dub echoes with a junglish, tempting atmosphere. On the other hand, Cold Brain is full of fine elements which make us enjoy of a terrace jazz (better than a lounge one). With Dark state of my own the register shifts towards minimal of playful funksoul with synth arrangements. Oh my loft is more similar to Dark state of my own than to the previous tracks. Purely hedonist and dauntless, it is imbued with the soul of the vocals which season it. When the fever does not let you think is our favourite, though the whole production exhales hyper quality. But coming back to this When the fever does not let you think, we find a piece with a gliding halo where subtleties are perfectly measured. The stop is delicious, as it is the timeless and juicy bass groove.
We heartly thank Manu Heredia for this incredible work we are delighted to present to the rest of the people, through our humble but powerful channels.

It's great when everything works out, ain't it? Our team played with real drive and purpose yesterday, like something we havent seen all year. We knocked on the door of the Rams house yesterday and they handed out a whole bunch of candy for the fans. As for every one who picked the Saints to win, they had something else for their holiday gift.
With the red zone hex broken and proof that we can play with any team and beat them, I'll likely be casting my last spell of the season next week against the Cardinals. I've been waiting for the turning point in this season, and yesterday had to be it. If we play anything like we did against the Saints, the Cardinals are in big trouble and so is the rest of the division. Thank you Steven, your sideline animation was just what the doctor ordered. Spags looked driven. Bradford was active on the sidelines. The Rams are back and there's still 9 games to play.

I've met a great number of people who like this poem by William Carlos Williams. It is called This is Just to Say.
I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox
and which
you were probably
for breakfast
Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold
But I prefer the companion, written by Erica-Lynn Gambino for William Carlos Williams. This is the type of poetry that actually brings me to laugh.
I have just
asked you to
get out of my
even though
you never
I would
Forgive me
you were
me insane
"Away! away! for I will fly to thee!
Not charioted here by Bacchus and his pards,
But on the viewless wings of poesy."
- from Ode To a Nightingale by John Keats
I have recently become obsessed with poesy. Excuse me, I mean to say poetry. I know that poetry is often associated with snobs, but I am on my knees begging people to realize that poetry does not deserve such an awful reputation.
I like poetry because of the sheer emotion that I receive from reading it. I'm not a formalist who is only concerned with the literary devices. I think, like Oscar Wilde, I'm an advocate of art for art's sake. I love the aesthetic pleasure that one receives from reading poems. (Granted, I also think that art can be useful in challenging ideologies, but that's another discussion for another day.) The poem that I posted yesterday, Elvis Kissed Me, was haunting and actually made my eyes well up with tears. I love e.e. cummings because of his playfulness of spirit and willingness to experiment. And it isn't just written poetry that I admire. K'naan's rhymes in his rap songs are empowering, and Suzanne Vega has the ability to write lyrics that match her soft and wonderful voice. See, poetry now is most commonly found in music. So poetry isn't snobby at all. Read poems and listen to poems that you actually enjoy.
Honestly, even though I recognize its intellectual value, I gain a similar visceral pleasure from poetry that I get from watching Glee. So go read!
by T. S. Kerrington
"Elvis kissed me once," she swears,
sitting in a neon dive
ordering her drinks in pairs.
Two stools down you nurse a beer,
sensing easy pickings here.
"Back in sixty-eight," she sighs,
smoothing back her yellow hair.
Teared mascara smears her eyes.
Drawing near, you claim you've met,
offer her a cigarette.
"Call me cheap," she sobs, "or bad
say that decent men dismissed me,
say I've lost my looks, but add
Elvis kissed me."
1. Check out my little sister's tumblog. She's a pretty good kid. And she's got an impressive sense of humor for a high school freshman. (Granted, she's learned a lot from the master, which is me, naturally.)
2. Have you noticed? I've been updating my blog much more frequently lately! It might have something to do with the fact that finals are approaching, and I am progressively needing more and more study breaks. But I'm going to credit my increased tumblr activity to a lack of apathy. Anyway, I'll try to keep this energy up from now on.
Haha, I stumbledupon this webpage. And this is what it told me. Enjoy.
(The following are actual stories told by travel agents.)
I had someone ask for an aisle seats so that his or her hair wouldn't get messed up by being near the window.
A client called in inquiring about a package to Hawaii. After going over all the cost info, she asked, "Would it be cheaper to fly to California and then take the train to Hawaii?"
I got a call from a woman who wanted to go to Capetown. I started to explain the length of the flight and the passport information when she interrupted me with "I'm not trying to make you look stupid, but Capetown is in Massachusetts. "Without trying to make her look like the stupid one, I calmly explained, "Capecod is in Massachusetts, Capetown is in Africa." Her response … click.
A man called, furious about a Florida package we did. I asked what was wrong with the vacation in Orlando. He said he was expecting an ocean-view room. I tried to explain that is not possible, since Orlando is in the middle of the state. He replied, "Don't lie to me. I looked on the map and Florida is a very thin state."
I got a call from a man who asked, "Is it possible to see England from Canada?" I said, "No." He said "But they look so close on the map."
Another man called and asked if he could rent a car in Dallas. When I pulled up the reservation, I noticed he had a 1-hour lay over in Dallas. When I asked him why he wanted to rent a car, he said, "I heard Dallas was a big airport, and I need a car to drive between the gates to save time."
A nice lady just called. She needed to know how it was possible that her flight from Detroit left at 8:20am and got into Chicago at 8:33am. I tried to explain that Michigan was an hour ahead of llinois, but she could not understand the concept of time zones. Finally I told her the plane went very fast, and she bought that!
A woman called and asked, "Do airlines put your physical description on your bag so they know who's luggage belongs to who?" I said, "No, why do you ask?" She replied, "Well, when I checked in with the airline, they put a tag on my luggage that said FAT, and I'm overweight, is there any connection?" After putting her on hold for a minute while I "looked into it" (I was actually laughing) I came back and explained the city code for Fresno is FAT, and that the airline was just putting a destination tag on her luggage.
I just got off the phone with a man who asked, "How do I know which plane to get on?" I asked him what exactly he meant, which he replied, "I was told my flight number is 823, but none of these darn planes have numbers on them."
A woman called and said, "I need to fly to Pepsi-cola on one of those computer planes." I asked if she meant to fly to Pensacola on a commuter plane. She said, "Yeah, whatever."
A businessman called and had a question about the documents he needed in order to fly to China. After a lengthy discussion about passports, I reminded him he needed a visa. "Oh no I don't, I've been to China many times and never had to have one of those." I double checked and sure enough, his stay required a visa. When I told him this he said, "Look, I've been to China four times and every time they have accepted my American Express."
A woman called to make reservations, "I want to go from Chicago to Hippopotamus, New York" The agent was at a loss for words. Finally, the agent: "Are you sure that's the name of the town?" "Yes, what flights do you have?" replied the customer. After some searching, the agent came back with, "I'm sorry, ma'am, I've looked up every airport code in the country and can't find a Hippopotamus anywhere." The customer retorted, "Oh don't be silly. Everyone knows where it is. Check your map!" The agent scoured a map of the state of New York and finally offered, "You don't mean Buffalo, do you?" "That's it! I knew it was a big animal!"
maggy and milly and molly and may
went down to the beach(to play one day)
and maggie discovered a shell that sang
so sweetly she couldn't remember her troubles,and
milly befriended a stranded star
whose rays five languid fingers were;
and molly was chased by a horrible thing
which raced sideways while blowing bubbles:and
may came home with a smooth round stone
as small as a world and as large as alone.
For whatever we lose(like a you or a me)
its always ourselves we find in the sea
e. e. cummings
"Women have served all these centuries as looking-glasses possessing the magic and delicious power of reflecting the figure of a man at twice its natural size. Without that power probably the earth would still be swamp and jungle. The glories of all our wars would be unknown. We should still be scratching the outlines of deer on the remains of mutton bones and bartering flints for sheepskins or whatever simple ornament took our unsophisticated taste…Whatever may be their use in civilised societies, mirrors are essential to all violent and heroic action. That is why Napoleon and Mussolini both insist so emphatically upon the inferiority of women, for if they were not inferior, they would cease to enlarge. That serves to explain in part the necessity that women are so often are to men. And it serves to explain how restless they are under her criticism; how impossible it is for her to say to them this book is bad, this picture is feeble, or whatever it may be, without giving far more pain and rousing far more anger than a man would do who gave the same criticism. For if she begins to tell the truth, the figure in the looking-glass shrinks; his fitness for life is diminished. How is he to go on giving judgment, civilising natives, making laws, writing books, dressing up and speechifying at least twice the size he really is?"
Yeah, another feminist post. This is a passage from Virginia Woolf's A Room of One's Own. What's interesting is that she wrote in 1929, but I could easily read this as if it were written in 2010. This passage frightens me for a number of reasons. Is Woolf unconsciously suggesting that progress would have been impossible without men belittling women? Is she implying the leaders, in general, must view themselves as greater human beings in order to be leaders? Is she condemning all men? I find this entire concept intriguing, but I read it skeptically. Just something to think about.
I've come to the conclusion that one of the most revealing actions that you can do to get to know a person is to check their Top 25 Most Played Songs on their iPod. I think a lot of people try to spin their music collection to sound like they're really knowledgeable when it comes to music, but checking a person's Top 25 is checking something that they can't fake. I admit, when I was fifteen, I enjoyed telling the world that I had a great Pink Floyd collection on my iTunes. In reality, those songs were my father's and I never listened to them. But my Top 25 then included Justin Timberlake.
I like to think that my musical taste has matured, so I took an honest look at my Top 25. And I'm pretty happy with what I found.

Award recognizes research and development work on digital libraries and creation of a new world digital image library and portal to be launched this summer
BOSTON (May 24, 2006) — A Simmons College professor of library and information science has received a national honor bestowed by two library and information technology organizations for innovative work on digital libraries and a new digital portal to be launched at the end of June.
Professor Ching-chih Chen of the Simmons College Graduate School of Library and Information Science received the Frederick G. Kilgour Award for research in library and information technology. The award is co-sponsored by the Library and Information Technology Association, a division of the American Library Association, and OCLC Online Computer Library Center, a worldwide library cooperative.
The award is given to a person who has amassed a significant body of research in the field of library and information technology, with recognition given to research that results in a substantive positive impact on the publication, storage, retrieval and dissemination of information.
Chen in the late 1980s and early 1990s developed the acclaimed laserdisc and multimedia CD-ROM "The First Emperor of China" showing the terracotta warriors and horses at Xian. She has promoted the idea of a world digital library since 1993. Her latest work is the Global Memory Net (GMNet), a digital image library and portal that will give users an innovative way to search among the world's digital library collections for information, images and video. Users will be able to access more than 30 digital image collections within GMNet, as well as 2,400 digital library collections from more than 80 countries. That work, supported by the National Science Foundation, will debut in June.
Simmons College (www.simmons.edu) is a nationally recognized private university in Boston. It includes an undergraduate college for women and graduate programs for women and men in social work, health studies, library and information science, management, and liberal arts.

Just a couple years out of college, I was well versed in the Portland night life. My friends and I went dancing every weekend. Sometimes both Friday and Saturday nights.
Oh, who am I kidding, we went dancing every Wednesday evening too.
The weekends were reserved for Santorini, a Greek restaurant and club downtown. Santorini is where I learned to sing several songs in Arabic, where I had at least one birthday party, where from the deejay to the bartenders to the owner, everyone knew our name.
Wednesdays you could find us upstairs at [click to continue…]

Are you looking for easy healthy chicken recipes for the slow cooker?
Here's one for your files. I made this Southwestern slow cooker chicken with corn, black beans and salsa dish earlier this week for dinner and everyone loved it.
I loved how easy it was to prepare.
This light and healthy recipe jumped out at me, from the first few pages of one of my most recent cookbook finds – Fix-It and Forget-It Lightly: 600 Healthy Low-Fat Recipes for Your Slow Cooker, as I was scanning for a quick and easy way to use the package of chicken breasts sitting in the fridge.
With just 6 ingredients and 10 minutes of prep time, it's a great quick and easy dinner solution for busy days. I adapted the recipe slightly, adding some Pampered Chef Southwest Seasoning Mix to the chicken before adding it to the pot. (I think its' really important to season your meat or chicken – even if it's just with a little salt and pepper – before cooking it – especially in the slow cooker.)
This skinny southwestern slow cooker chicken is great served with rice and a simple tossed green salad. And I think if you use nonfat cheese, it works for Simply Filling.
- 2 cans (15.5 ounces) corn, drained
- 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 jar (16 ounces) chunky salsa, divided
- 6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (4 to 5 ounces each)
- Southwest seasoning blend (optional)
- 1 cup low-fat shredded Mexican cheese blend
- Combine the corn, black beans and ½ cup salsa in a 5 to 6-quart slow cooker.
- Season the chicken with Southwest seasoning blend or salt and pepper to taste.
- Add chicken to the slow cooker.
- Top with the remaining salsa.
- Cover and cook on high for 3 to 4 hours or on low for 7 to 8 hours.
- Sprinkle with cheese. Cover and cook 5 minutes more or until cheese melts.
This makes a generous serving. To shave a couple of WW points, eat a smaller portion, which is what I did.
To prevent your chicken from drying out, you'll want to check for doneness. Many of today's slow cookers are much hotter than they used to be. My chicken was done in about 3.5 hours on low!

The Opa-locka City Commission has given itself more time to figure out how to close a deficit of more than $2 million in the proposed 2013-2014 budget after it failed the first hearing.
Last week, commissioners recessed the first hearing of the city's budget until a continuance at 5:01 p.m. on Sept. 23. However, commissioners gave preliminary approval to a tax increase and the city's proprietary and special revenue funds.
The budget is in the red by $2.57 million and failed the first reading by a vote of 3-2. Voting to approve the budget were Mayor Myra Taylor and Commissioner Luis Santiago; voting against it were Vice Mayor Joseph Kelley and commissioners Timothy Holmes and Dorothy Johnson.
Among possible options to close the budget gap are eliminating 15 of 25 vacant or new positions. If these positions are eliminated, the city could save about $600,000.
Another option is to lighten claims and insurable losses so Opa-locka can return to its insurance provider.
The insurance provider, The Florida League of Cities, will not renew its policy with the city. Therefore, Opa-locka is "urgently" seeking quotes for insurance coverage to begin Oct. 1, the start of the city's fiscal year. Opa-locka paid the League $650,000 per year, but cost to replace the premium could be twice that amount based on early indications. The city is considering obtaining a loan for liability and worker's compensation coverage for one year. This will give it time to set up a risk-management program to reduce claims and insurable losses, thus putting the city in a better position to possibly return to the League.
The budget also reflects a proposed 15 percent increase in health insurance on the budget that amounts to $180,000. To save money and close the gap the city is trying to negotiate an option for health insurance that doesn't increase premiums.
The city's property values have fallen 29 percent during the past five years — including a 5.6 percent drop in the past year.
To offset the loss in revenue and help close the budget the gap the city proposed a $9.30 per $1,000 in taxable property value. The current rate is $9.10.
The proposed rate of $9.30 for 2013-2014 will bring the city $5,778,145 in revenue. According to the proposed budget, the $9.30 rate will bring the city $173,095 more in property tax money. Commissioners voted 3-0 to give the increased rate preliminary approval. Santiago and Johnson had not yet arrived for that vote.
The community redevelopment agency will receive $250,000 as a transfer from the water and sewer fund. It includes money to hire an administrative assistant and an outreach coordinator in addition to the CRA director. Of the total amount, $223,300 is for salaries and benefits of CRA staff and $26,700 is for operating expenses.
The second budget hearing is scheduled at 5:01 p.m. on Sept. 25 at 780 Fisherman St.

Right now, I am planning to bring my 70-200 f/4 IS, my 24-104, and my 17-40.
Do you really need to fill that 40-70mm gap? 17-40L + 70-200/4L IS could be enough.
+1, I agree.
Sometimes people travel with way too much stuff. This is fine if you are being paid, or may be paid in the future through stock footage stills etc., but if you are going for a holiday then try to pack as little as possible. Believe me, you will enjoy it a lot more.

After Game 1, I said our backs are up against the wall. After Game 2, It was damn near done. After Game 3, the fat lady has sung her song.
Getting into the playoffs is not the objective. Winning the cup is the #1 Objective. With all of the talent, what happened and where does the FO go?
At some point we will not be able to keep Crosby, Malkin and Staal. Is this the year we make the move?
The defense sucked in the serries. Who goes? Is Depres ready to play big boy hockey every day? Is Martin the odd man out? What can we get for him?
Do we need a better backup Goalie so that Fleury is not so tired come the playoffs?
Was the speed of the playoffs too fast for Vitale? Is he the answer as a 4th line C or is he a possible 3rd line replacement for Staal? What is Park's role?
How do we fix the PP. We have given up too many SHG this year. Is the problem personnel or scheme?
It is going to be a long off season.

I'm thinking $450m would go a long way helping Oklahoma right about now.
WASHINGTON -- The Pentagon wants more than $450 million for maintaining and upgrading the Guantanamo Bay prison that President Barack Obama wants to close.
New details on the administration's budget request for next year and other expenses emerged on Tuesday. The cost of the facility that houses 166 prisoners indefinitely includes $200 million for military construction work that could stretch over a decade.
The request also includes $40 million for a fiber optic cable and millions more for military commissions at the facility in Cuba.
Since he took office in January 2009, Obama has pushed to close the prison but has faced opposition from Republicans and some Democrats in Congress. Obama is expected to renew his plea in a speech on counterterrorism on Thursday.
Oh my. Someone please get this to Ashley Judd. These neanderthals are totally willing to believe any crackpot or satirical story that fits their warped narrative. I'm sure McConnell thought he had found himself a hobby horse he could ride the poop out of. Via Wired.
The best parody contains elements of truth. Which might explain how the military's answer to The Onion suckered the Senate's Republican leader.
Meet The Duffel Blog, if you haven't already. A must-read for national-security nerds — and anyone who enjoys humor, really — it provides pitch-perfect military parody online, such as this piece about Syria hosting Iraq War reenactors (bylined by "G-Had") or this one about a Google Street View Prius getting blown up in Kandahar. The Duffel Blog, as dutiful readers know, is America's oldest online source for fake military news, founded in 1797 in a moment of farsightedness. It often gives more real talk than most legit journalistic institutions, but there is no way you can confuse it with the real news.
Unless you are a senior member of the United States Senate.
On November 14, 2012, Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) wrote to Elizabeth King, the Pentagon's congressional liaison, with a an unusually credulous query. "I am writing on behalf of a constituent who has contacted me regarding Guantanamo Bay prisoners receiving Post 9/11 GI Bill benefits," McConnell wrote in a letter acquired by Danger Room. "I would appreciate your review and response to my constituent's concerns."
Um, Guantanamo detainees getting GI Bill benefits? Yes, that's from the Duffel Blog, as McConnell's constituent clearly states, complete with the reference URL. Said constituent even notes that he or she can't find any information about the alleged government payouts to suspected insurgents and terrorists.

This is my first attempt at a real fan post. My first should have been a fan shot but what do I know? Fortunately for me noone hear busted my chops. That is why I love this site. Well, here goes.
It seems to me that in a society that wants everything right now fans fueled by the MSN are using the same sort of impatience when it comes to young professional athletes. In the case of three Bronco's rookies last year I will use these immortal words. The news of their demise has been greatly exaggerated. I will explain after the jump.
1. Knowshon Moreno. Held out early and then was injured but still managed almost 1000 yards running behind what was possibly the worst offensive line the Bronco's have had for years. With a year of experience under his belt, in better condition and running behind a better O line besides being it is the second year in the system he by all means should have a better season this year!
2. Robert Ayers- Also held out and even though his statistics didn't reflect it had a pretty good rookie year getting pressure on the QB. It took Lamar Woodley more than one year to become a factor for the Steelers and I think that with Denver's improvement on the D-Line Ayers impact should start to show early this season and he will continually improve.
3. Alphonso Smith-Cornerback is one of the hardest positions to master for a young player and I do not think that Smith had any real idea what he was in for in the NFL and was overwhelmed. I read an article around the first of the year where he pretty much said that was the case and he was going to put in the study time, the gym time, work hard and do whatever it takes for him to make more of a contribution to the team this year.
In my opinion all three of these players are high character individuals with bright futures and to base an opinion on their performance(s) during their respective rookie years would be a big mistake! What does Mile High Nation think?

Paul Robeson was an extraordinary and versatile individual, world famous during his lifetime, who has been deliberately erased from the dominant myth of U.S. history for speaking the truth about conditions both domestic and abroad – his opposition to racism, fascism and colonialism and his support for civil and human rights, democracy, national liberation, socialism and the day-to-day resistance of working people of all lands to oppression, knowing that his fame would allow these messages to be more widely heard.

I think we should all give a big shoutout to Derrick Williams for having a great attitude and representing the Wolves in a positive way.
I imagine it must be a little hard for him once in a while. It is like being the middle child with a precocious prodigy baby brother in Rubio, and a superstar big brother in Love, filling the position Williams would normally be in.
Not that he lacks in talent, but he is still a rookie. Something Rubio is actually not. So it is probably hard to be compared to Rubio and have Rubio get all the interviews and highlights.
But I know it is just a matter of time for Mr. Williams. Being a rookie is hard. And Derrick is going to have a long illustrious career in the NBA. You can see the talent oozing out of him. He will be a star.
I saw the dunk match. And that is a tough thing to do. I would not want to be on that big of a stage. And the crowd is murder too. But even though DThrill didn't win it, and even suffered some rude slings and arrows on twitter, he still handled himself like a pro.
In all the post-match interviews he was really positive and just said it was a great weekend and a great experience. He doesn't seem to be taking it too hard, or too seriously. And I think that is really good.
Good on you Thrill! You'll get 'em next year! Wolves Nation got your back!

Kitchen Flooring Buying Guide: Linoleum
Filed under: Kitchen & Bath, Big Projects, Products & Materials
Thinking of installing new kitchen flooring in time for spring? In this five-part kitchen flooring series, we'll lay the groundwork -- and you make the decision. In this second installment we take a closer look the DIYer's kitchen flooring material of choice: Linoleum.
Linoleum flooring. Photo: tuchodi, Flickr
How It's Sold: Linoleum kitchen flooring is available as tile, sheeting and even cutout pieces that look similar to area rugs. It sticks to the floor with adhesive. Tile is sold in all sizes and sheeting is typically sold in 6-foot x 7-inch widths and multiple thicknesses.
Pros: Linoleum is considered a green material because no hazardous chemicals are associated with its creation or disposal. It's also naturally antibacterial and biodegradable, easy to clean, comfortable to stand on and scratch- and gouge-resistant -- excellent for high-traffic areas just like the kitchen. Linoleum can last 40 years or more.
Cons: Although it's rugged and easy to work with, linoleum just doesn't have the same appeal to some consumers as higher end materials.
DIY Degree of Difficulty: Very Easy (Tiles) to Tough (Sheeting)
While any eager 8-year-old assistant could help you lay a linoleum tile kitchen floor (just spread out latex adhesive, place tiles on it, then set with a roller), laying sheet linoleum is another story. The adhesive makes linoleum sheeting shrink in length and expand in width, which adds up to a potential nightmare situation. So it's wise to leave the sheeting installation to the pros, and take on tile installation yourself.
Care & Maintenance: Dust mop and/or sweep regularly with a soft-bristled broom. Vacuum with the soft floor attachment (careful: the ends of certain attachments can scratch delicate finishes). Remove stubborn scuff marks with a clean rag dipped in undiluted linoleum cleaner. Wash by hand with a natural vinegar-based solution or use a damp mop as needed. Recoat floors once per year with acrylic sealer to maintain performance and luster.
Cost (per square foot)
Linoleum tile is typically priced from $2 to $7. Sheet linoleum costs $3 to $4 installed.

DIY Ladder: Clever Uses For An Old Ladder
Filed under: home decor, in the kitchen, organization and storage, Crafts, wood working, Storage & Organization, Crafts & CelebrationsTake an old ladder to new heights with these fun craft-it-yourself ideas.
I'm willing to bet that you have an old step ladder in your garage or basement. You know the one -- covered in old paint with the wobbly leg. Too bad it's useless, right? Wrong! You can reuse that old ladder without stepping on a single rung. Here are a few fun ways to re-purpose that ladder and put it to good use around the house, without spending a dime.
Photos: Charles Walton IV for Southern Living/Deborah Ory for Woman's Day
If your ladder is a bit dingy, clean it up, scrape or sand off the old paint unless you're going for that shabby chic look. Tighten up that wobbly leg, and try one of these nifty ideas:
1. Bookshelf. You've seen ladder-shaped bookshelves, right? Well, obviously, they were inspired by the real thing. You can use an old ladder as a bookshelf and save yourself a lot of cash while still getting the same look.
2. Pot rack. How fun is this idea we spotted over on Woman's Day? Just take an old ladder and place it on its side, affix to the ceiling and use it to hang your pots and pans!
Do these photos inspire you to dig up your old ladder? Photos: This Old House/Living, Etc
An instant purse rack! Photo: Holly Becker, decor8
5. Closet organizer. Ladies, do you want somewhere to hang or rest your purse collection? What about sweaters, or maybe you need somewhere to hang your pants or rest your shoes? An old ladder in the closet is a great place to organize your clothing and accessories.
6. Nightstand. If your ladder has flat rungs that are like small shelves, you can use a ladder as a nightstand. Simply place the ladder next to the bed and use the rungs to place your alarm clock, books or magazines and phone (or whatever else you keep next to the bed).
7. Wall decor. Hang an old ladder on the wall as art! Paint it a fun color to match your room, or affix family memorabilia to the rungs and use it as a wall display.

Tips for buying Alternating Pressure Bed
- Alternating pressure beds should support a maximum weight of 159 kg, which should accommodate most patients; however, for bariatric patients, they should support 272 kg or more, depending on the individual patient.
- Alternating pressure beds should have casters of at least 12 cm in diameter. To ensure that the air bed remains stationary when necessary, brakes are required.
- For safety purposes, the air-fluidized beds should include CPR controls that, when triggered, provide a hard surface on which CPR can be performed.
- Noise levels of operating these alternating pressure beds should not exceed 35 dBA, which is the typical sound level in a quiet hospital.
- When the air bed or air-pressure mattress is not functioning within specified ranges, the system should alarm.
- To allow constant functioning of the alternating pressure bed during transport and power outages, a battery backup or other feature should be available.
- Specialty care beds are expensive and have limited application. Buyers should compare the cost of buying vs. leasing them when needed. Facilities should ask suppliers for training programs for clinical personnel who will be using these alternating pressure beds.
- Specialty air-fluidized bed frames should have side rails that can be locked in the upright position. To prevent slippage, mattress overlays should have straps.
- There is no compelling evidence that one support surface performed better than others, under all circumstances.
- The alternating pressure bed's surface should match the patient, so when selecting a support surface for the alternating pressure bed, caregivers should consider the clinical condition of the patient, characteristics of the care setting, and characteristics of the support surface.
- Low-air-loss and air-pressure mattress replacements and overlays are often cheaper than low-air-loss beds because they use a standard bed as the platform. However, facilities should know that mattress overlays and replacements may have a shorter life span than low-air-loss beds.
- Mattresses and overlays eliminate the need to store two large bed frames because an existing bed frame is used; however, mattress overlays and mattress replacements may not be compatible with all hospital beds.
- Buyers need to determine whether air-fluidized bed or low-air-loss therapies are necessary in the hospital. Home use of these therapies may be a better option.
- Facilities should keep in mind that surfaces that can be laundered require cleaning and disinfecting, especially in the case of overlays and air-pressure mattress replacements. Specially treated surfaces may require chemical disinfection or other special handling.

Classic bass riffs and tab for Zep's 4th album.
Though Led Zeppelin's fourth album was actually released with a cryptic title, it has come to be known as Led Zeppelin IV. Perhaps best known for its hit "Stairway to Heaven," this album remains a favorite of classic rock fans of all generations. Rolling Stone magazine has even placed it on its list of the 500 greatest albums of all time. Drawing from more than 30 years of documentation, interviews, and recorded footage, this book delivers unprecedented accuracy. Titles: Black Dog * Rock and Roll * Stairway to Heaven * Misty Mountain Hop * Four Sticks * When the Levee Breaks.

Etat Libre d'Orange - Dangerous Complicity: After about an hour the amber skin, sweet fruit, and woody leather become apparent.
I expected more tropical notes, with the rum, coconut, and ginger, but had a hard time finding them. It's a romantic scent, not dangerous, because of the soft and gentle sweetness, and this one does better in the visual description marketing than the actual olfactory experience.

"This is the most beautiful Christmas card we've ever had! Many of our friends commented saying, "What a card!," and that this card earned us "Christmas card of the year!" We ordered it with the pearlized finish and it was absolutely stunning! The picture quality was fantastic. We had such a great experience that we will order cards every year from now on....it will be hard to top this one!"
"Had second thoughts but when the card came it was absolutely beautiful. The pictures are a good size and they allowed me to showcase my 2 children and all their activities. My only complaint is that the box for my christmas 'letter' was a little small. The card stock is very thick and luxurious and made an impact when delivered. Everyone thought that the card was stunning. This is my third christmas with tiny prints and always wonder if they can get better. Every card has been different from the other and they have never failed to impress. thanks!"
"I really liked my cards, and the people who received then had very favorable comments. The only thing I would change would be the ability to add text boxes where I want them and to make the text box larger if I need it to be."
"Everyone loved the card, it became a mini album of our vacation. I loved the ability to personalize. The pearlizing of the card really added a nice sheen so that was a nice final touch. The quality of the paper is A-1. The printing was beautiful. I loved being given a free hand to "create" and also knowing that a Tiny Prints tech would be available if I ran into a snag. Great experience! Will be doing this every year now with you. Thank you! Rosemary Place, Chicago, Illinois"
"Excellent product with large size picture areas that enhance overall presentation. Received many compliments on this card; a favorite of our perennial effort."

Mostly Cloudy

We might catch some flak for this pick. He disappeared in games, but that wasn't entirely his fault. With little help next to him on the inside, he was free to be double-teamed or taken out of the game not on his own accord. And there's no real metric to count how much he helped middle linebacker Jonathan Vilma in directing the defense from his perch on the second level.
Still, Ellis led the team with six sacks this season and played all 16 regular season games and the playoff game, the first time in his career he has played an entire season without missing games due to injury. Ellis more than doubled his career high in tackles this season with 44 and also forced two fumbles.
No. 4 might be a little high, but what he means to the defensive front probably isn't written enough. Teamed with nose guard Remi Ayodele on run downs, the Saints – and this is going to sound strange after watching Marshawn Lynch's 67-yard run in the playoffs – didn't give up an exorbitant amount of long runs up the middle this past season like they did in 2009. That improvement can partly be attributed to Ellis.

A Silsbee man is dead following an accident Saturday morning.
A Department of Public Safety spokesperson tells 12News HD the accident happened shortly before 1 a.m. in the 500 block of Dubury Road about a half-mile west of Highway 92. This is north of Silsbee.
Troopers say William F. Hollyfield, 45, of Silsbee, was driving a 1999 Toyota Tacoma westbound on Dubury Road when he reached a curve. The truck left roadway, hit a group of trees and overturned.
The posted speed limit is 30 miles per hour. Troopers have not yet said if speed or other factors resulted in the accident.
Hollyfield was pronounced dead at the scene at 1:51 a.m. by Precinct 4 Justice of the Peace Judge Kent Walker. Hollyfield's next of kin has been notified.
Investigators say Hollyfield was not wearing a seat belt.
The accident remains under investigation.

Yesterday's vote was the closest in the Not-So-Sweet Sixteen to date, but in the end, Brian Campbell ended up dusting one of Glen Sather's boys to move on to the next round where he'll meet Vincent Lecavalier. But today's match-up ensures that at least one Sather contract will make it to the next round as Wade Redden and Derek Boogaard clash in a contest between Sather's two stupidest contracts since arriving in New York. I'll make the case for each player after the jump, and also debut the snazzy new Not-So-Sweet Sixteen bracket that Derek (Zona not Boogaard) so helpfully created.
Wade Redden
This contract is truly awful, and no one will argue otherwise. Redden can refuse a trade to eight teams, but all thirty have already taken a pass on him, so that's not really all that relevant. He's been waived and found wanting, and now plies his trade in the AHL where he's had a pretty good season offensively (eight goals and thirty-one assists in sixty-three games), but his -5 rating is fourth-worst on the team. He may not be crippling New York's cap since they've decided to bury him and have the resources to do so, but even New York has a budget for their hockey team, and there's no question that they could spend twenty-three million dollars a whole lot more effectively over the next four years.
Derek Boogaard
Or maybe not. One of the guys Redden was banished to make room for is Derek Boogaard, a man with one goal over his last five seasons. I am fully confident that Boogaard provides negative value (and karma) to any team he plays for. Redden obviously makes more money, and his presence in the AHL demonstrates that his contract is seen by the Rangers as the bigger burden, but it's not unfathomable to suggest that if Redden were playing in the NHL, he would at least offer some value to his team. Derek Boogaard does not. His contract is more money and more term than any goon I can remember. That's stupid enough to make him a contender.
The Bracket

BRUNSWICK COUNTY NC (WECT) – If you've driven by Brunswick Forest lately, you may have seen a carnival in the area, complete with a Ferris wheel and other rides.
Unfortunately, the carnival is not for the public, but is being used for a scene in the new Jennifer Aniston movie We're the Millers. The carnival décor will be used throughout the next few weeks.
At least 300 extras showed up for the first day of filming on Monday, according to a spokeswoman. She also told WECT.comt that Jennifer Aniston was not on set for the first day.
No word yet on when filming will wrap in Leland, but if you're looking to get in front of the camera you still can.
Double A Casting reached out on Facebook to find extras for the scene. According to the ad, film crews started working on the scene early Monday morning.
The casting agency is still looking for extras to take part in the movie. Be sure to check out their Facebook page for more details on what types of people they are casting.

On Wednesday, the Lubbock City Council approved a bond election . The proposed $29.9 million package would benefit four different categories within the city of Lubbock.
"There are a lot of street projects, where infrastructure is critical," said Phyllis Jones, Chairperson for the Citizens Advisory Executive Committee "It's critical that we take care of the amenities that we have, and improve the parks the libraries, all of these are quality of life and if you don't have a bond election and if you don't pass bonds then a city can't move forward."
This election will be added to the May 15th ballot. A move that eliminated the need for a special election, and saved the city about $80,000.

Numbers Game: Celtics 93, Heat 91 (Game 4 – OT)
By Ethan J. Skolnick
Numbers of note from the Heat's overtime loss in Boston:
37.5: The time left in the fourth quarter when LeBron James hit a three to tie it. He certainly didn't shy away from that shot.
21.1: The time left when the Heat had a chance to win. What happened? Here's Erik Spoelstra's explanation — "It was another multi-layer thing to try to get LeBron on the run. And then at that point the play broke down a little bit, so he had to put the ball on the floor and make a play. He had the right idea. I think (Udonis Haslem) was open for a count there in the corner. But you really have to pass it over a 7-foot-6 guy (Kevin Garnett's wingspan) guy, so it really wasn't a clean pass."
And here's James' explanation — "We ran a set where I was coming for a pick-and-roll with DWade, then I slipped out and DWade hit on the left wing. For the most part, everyone else was on the whole left side. I had a 1-on-1 until KG came and doubled the ball. I heard Rondo call him and double the ball. I dribbled the ball middle and I saw U.D. circling underneath. KG got a hand on my wrist when I tried to make the pass to UD and we didn't get off a good look."
4:22: The time left when Paul Pierce fouled out.
3:30: The time left in overtime when Haslem drove for a dunk, and a two point lead.
0: The points that Heat scored thereafter.
2:33: The time left in overtime when the Heat decided it didn't need to guard Rajon Rondo, who drove for a layup.
1:51: The time left in overtime when James was called for an offensive foul, his sixth foul of the game, and the first time he's fouled out with the Heat. "I don't think I fouled him," James said. "I don't think it was a foul."
21.4: The time left in overtime when the Heat called timeout, down 93-91.
14.0: The time left in overtime when Doc Rivers gave a foul.
