Though numerated, the following is in no particular ranking by importance. Here's my take on what it's going to take for the St. Louis Rams to make the playoffs, a few things that could crush those hopes, and problems that hindered them from getting there in years past:
What It's Going To Take
1. The Leadership of Sam Bradford: This is no longer a football team who looks to a veteran, eight-time 1,000 yard rusher to pave the way. The #1 overall pick from 2010 has full control of the Rams offense, and they'll go as he does. The Rams are still very young offensively, though. Three years of NFL experience trumps that of many of his offensive components. It's his team now. The time has come for Sam Bradford to shine.
2. Winning the Winnable Games: Specifically the home games. The Dome will need to be rockin' for all of the home games, and the offseason excitement surrounding the team should leave few seats empty come September. Playing in the NFC West is no excuse, though. The Rams must win games at home: Arizona Cardinals (9/8), San Francisco 49ers (9/26), Jacksonville Jaguars (10/6), Seattle Seahawks (10/28), Tennessee Titans (11/3), Chicago Bears (11/24), New Orleans Saints (12/15), and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (12/22).
That is to say that the Rams need to win the majority of the them. They owned the NFC West in 2012, going 4-1-1 on the year. A step back could be back-breaking, considering two of the West's teams are already being penciled into the playoffs.
3. A Top 10 Defense: There's so much momentum from 2012 that this one may just be a given. It will need to be. The Rams defense was needed to keep the team in the majority of their 7 wins in 2012. It also kept many of their 8-1 losses/ties within grasp. The front seven for the Rams looks to be one of the more respectable units in the entirety of the league. There's promise in the secondary, but youth/inexperience are a slight concern. If the coaching staff feels comfortable fielding the projected starters, (Cortland Finnegan, Janoris Jenkins, T.J. McDonald, and Darian Stewart) then you should too. Time will tell, but it looks as though the Rams are going to have a Top-10 defense, and it's going to be that way for a several years.
4. A Mystery Man at Running Back: At this stage of the offseason, the Rams haven't named a starting running back. They may not have by the time the season rolls around. It looks as though the Rams look to use a running-back-by-committee approach in 2013. With Steven Jackson gone, though, the Rams are going to need someone to step up in a big way. Filling Jackson's shoes isn't a necessity per se, but having a reliable back who can punch it in at the goal line is. The roster battle that'll take place between Isaiah Pead, Daryl Richardson, and rookie Zac Stacy will provide one of the most interesting offseason story lines. Each has differing levels of skill sets and gives defenses a different look, but one will stand above the rest as the season progresses.
What's Bound To Break
1. Losing At Home: As aforementioned, winning in the division will be no easy feat. And though the Rams performed admirably in 2012, there are no guarantees for the season to come. Losing home games to their NFC West opponents would be devastating. The Rams have the 3rd toughest strength of schedule in the league this year, and trying to win on the road - especially against the aforementioned opponents - could extinguish playoff aspirations sooner than players, coaches, or fans would like. The Seahawks and 49ers both finished with 11 wins in 2012… not winning home games in the division would certainly put the Rams in a precarious position.
2. Inability to Adapt on Offense: A strength can't be a weakness can it? Do you remember all of the Jets fans stopping by TST to rejoice when the Rams chose Brian Schottenheimer as their offensive coordinator? Well, their opinions - as well as yours and mine - will mean very little in relation to the Rams offense in 2013.
The word 'bolster' fails to adequately accompany a Rams offense which acquired Jake Long, Jared Cook, Tavon Austin, Stedman Bailey, and Zac Stacy in the offseason. Couple those acquisitions with those of 2012 - Brian Quick and Chris Givens - and Sam Bradford has been provided some very respectable options. It's a luxury for sure. With the top-end speed the majority of his wideouts possess, Bradford should have minimal problems targeting an open receiver in the upcoming season… given a moment to do so, of course.
How will he spread the wealth, though? How much of that is his decision? Bradford has the ability to make adjustments at the line of scrimmage, but it'll be Brian Schottenheimer's play-calling that will engineer drives down the field. Schotty hasn't received much praise - from either Rams or Jets fans - for generating explosive offenses. For a guy potentially eyeing a promotion - as soon as 2014 - this would certainly be the year to flex his skills.
Sam Bradford isn't the only member of the Rams whose been provided a bevy of new weapons. The onus of making this offense one of the league's most dynamic is also on Brian Schottenheimer.
3. Inexperience: It's all over the field. Chris Givens and Janoris Jenkins were stellar as rookies. If sustained success/improvement are the expectation in their second seasons, they've set the bar high in their outstanding rookie campaigns. And although there's nothing to indicate anything other than progress, Givens and Jenkins should be the least of Rams' fans concerns.
There's little more than speculation at who's going to start at Left Guard. Even if it is ultimately filled by 2012 5th round pick Rokevious Watkins, his less-than-one-quarter of NFL stats don't scream 'proven.' The running backs have a total of 108 carries in the NFL, and Austin Pettis - coming into his 3rd season - is the team's 'veteran' wide receiver. Speaking of veterans, center Scott Wells (32) and guard Harvey Dahl (31) are outliers in terms of average age on the offense (25), which ranks as 6th youngest in the NFL.
The defense is no exception. The Rams defensive front appears as stout as they come. The front seven does still include a rookie, a 2nd year DT, and a 3rd year DE. Janoris Jenkins looks to be one of the steals of the 2012 draft, and a perfect compliment to Cortland Finnegan. Depth at corner - coupled with more questions than answers at safety - could spell the weak point in the Rams defense.
The inexperience - on both sides of the ball - doesn't have to be a weakness. It could just as easily prove to be a strength - and at some positions - it's already an upgrade. "Proven" just isn't a fitting word to describe the players, and there's far too little playing time [for some] to assume otherwise.
4. The Dreaded 'I' Word: If you take a look at the Rams' depth chart, the starting bunch looks legitimate. After that, there's some concern - on both sides of the ball - at who can step in and execute. The offensive line is a particular unit which has struggled to consistently stay healthy. Uncertainty at left guard isn't as major a concern when everyone surrounding them is healthy. But if the status of Jake Long's tricep, Scott Wells' knee, or Rodger Saffold's knee/back/neck/pectoral take a turn for the worse, so do the Rams chances at succeeding. And for my next trick, I will now successfully exit this paragraph without use of the dreaded 'i' word.
No Room To Blame
1. Competent Coaches: From Jeff Fisher all the way down, the Rams now have a competent bunch of NFL caliber coaches. For the first time - under the Fisher regime - the team will have a defensive coordinator. Gelling all aspects of an already promising team won't provide you the opportunity to point the finger at the coaching staff's ability to prepare the Rams for game day.
2. Inadequate Weapons: No brainer. The offense will be facing some of the most indomitable defenses in the league, but it's got the explosive components necessary to turn the tides. Finding out how to utilize them might be a tougher feat than realizing success when the ball is in their hands.
3. Craig Dahl: If there was one polarizing figure from the Rams 2012 squad, it was safety Craig Dahl. He's gone now. What does it mean for the Rams? Having seen the results of the offseason and draft, it means the coaching staff feels comfortable with Darian Stewart as Dahl's replacement. I'm not sure what took so long, and I'm guessing most Rams' fans feel the same. Much like the desired results of the upcoming season, progress is the minimal expectation at strong safety for the Rams. Stewart has some relatively small shoes to fill.

Lytro Light Field Camera
Reviewed by iRonald (Previously owned)
The Lytro camera is a nice piece of hardware and it definitely is an interesting bit of technology. It's difficult to be hard on this camera since it is brand new technology and the first generation is never the best, especially in a technology that has not matured yet. For $100, I would say this is a fine camera to take around with you and use when you get the opportunity to take an image that this camera does best. For $399, it's a bit hard to recommend. This camera is expensive for being a one trick pony. It's hard to say but it's true, it only does one type of photography well and that's a shame. It's also not something I personally would pay $399 for, especially when you can pick up a point and shoot for less than that, get better JPEG images and you can create the same effect that the Lytro camera does. Again, I do not want to discredit the technology because the tech behind the camera is incredible and I see it going far (perhaps being implemented into a cell phone or DSLR) but right now in this early stage, for $399, I can't say I can recommend it to the average consumer or to anyone who cares about picture quality over focusing after you take a picture.

Some people may tune into Gossip Girl for the fashionable and chic clothes, but I can't get over the show's assortment of trendy and lust worthy gadgets. As you've probably figured out, "Gossip Girl" is an anonymous blogger (narrated by the fabulously geeky Kristen Bell), who details the scandals and adventures of a group of wealthy New York City teenagers on her website. The frienemies are all completely mesmerized by the content of the blog, so you actually see them logging on with their Sidekicks and fancy Smartphones to get the latest scoop.

OVSH&E announced Thursday it will not partner with Community Health Systems. WTRF.com spoke to President and CEO Michael Caruso to learn what the next step is for the hospital.
Caruso said the two companies came to this decision mutually.
For the last 90 days they evaluated each other's organizations according to Caruso. Their goal was to determine if together they could provide better health care in for the community. In the end the original letter of intent was terminated and they mutually agreed to part ways based on what Caruso calls some "economic and market" factors and that the timing was wrong.
As for what is next Caruso says they are going to continue explore their options.
"There's always other opportunities that will spin off from this, so the answer is yes, we have some other opportunities that we're evaluating," he said. "They are in the premature stage at this particular time but we'll continue to look for a strategic capital partner."
Caruso said it is a great experience for their hospital to go through this process and the first one they have been. As for the two hospitals, he says they are standing alone on their own and have been for a number of years.

Get Group_ID from Group Name?
Is there a BP function that returns the group_id value when fed the group_name value? I've been trying to use bp_get_group_id() and bp_group_id(), but I don't think I'm using them properly.
I want to be able to say
$group_id = bp_get_grou_id("mygroupname");
… and have it assign the group_id for "mygroupname" to $group_id.
Should be easy, yes?

HULL, England (AP) -- Hull City has completed the transfer of striker Shane Long from West Bromwich Albion.
The 26-year-old Ireland striker, who has four goals this season, has signed a three-and-a-half year contract with his new club.

Hull was promoted from the English second tier last season and lies 10th in the Premier League.


text: Billy Stone, 15, runs away from an abusive foster home -- and ends up in a tough juvenile prison. There he becomes supreme gang leader of a kind that no one has ever seen, ruling through doing the unthinkable, social intelligence, literacy, and raw survival instincts. He is a voracious reader whose refuge and best friends are words on paper. Thanks to a hellish year with a grammar-crazed, English-teaching nun, he knows how to write a sentence. And write he does! In his drive for freedom and a normal life, his most potent weapon is ... literacy. The story is fiction, but the emotions are all to real for thousands of foster kids in juvenile prisons who are marked for failed lives and misery. Billy Stone is one who says, "No thanks," opting instead for freedom, self-fulfillment, family, money, power, and happiness. And through the power of literacy, he gets it all.

The Mets are stuck at a crossroad, one trail revealing additional years of mediocrity with the other a game of chance into the unknown. Through the last decade of struggles in Flushing, two teenagers have grown and fought in the blue and orange battalion to become the most admired warriors in the not as famous part of New York. They are young and in their primes. They keep the clubhouse intact and alive. They are perennial all-stars...and they must be let go.
Every year, I hear our fans demanding the same thing. They want change. Well, clarify for me. Do you want a change in personnel or a change in philosophy? The Mets transitioned from shipping rookies out at the first glimpse of potential in the Steve Phillips era to actually developing them in the Minaya era. Given the circumstances, I believe we should continue in that direction and make the farm system our priority.
Last year I would have opted for a re-tool instead of a rebuild. But last year, Santana and top prospect Jenry Mejia were not recovering from surgery, Mike Pelfrey was reliable, Brad Holt had potential and there was hope that Jason Bay can turn things around. Now, we have no ace, no potential top of the rotation starters and no major help coming any time soon from the farm system.
But this is not the reason I believe we must let go of our stars. The reason is because Reyes is overperforming and we have fallen in love with his play. If Reyes finishes the year hitting .275 and stealing 40 bases, this decision would have been much harder. But as he races around the bases as the most exciting player in the league, his price rises to other teams willing to trade for him, and so does the Mets risk in re-signing him.
Let's evaluate a good case scenario vs a bad case scenario should the Mets re-sign him to a modest 6 year/105 million dollar deal ($17.5 million per year). In an optimistic scenario, Reyes will average 150 games a year, bat .275-.300 and swipe 40-50 bases a year playing good defense. In a pessimistic scenario, Reyes will average 120 games a year, bat .275 and steal 30 bases a year playing mediocre defense. While, these are not the best and worst case scenarios, I would like Mets fans to evaluate this and answer the question, can we really afford the chance of a $105 million bad case scenario?
For those that play poker, this would be a tough but decisive call that the pot odds do not justify such a push. Trade Reyes, get a few pieces to work with and invest in amateur ball.
This leaves David Wright as the last hero standing. I say trade him too, when his value is higher. There is no point in trading him if his value is low but if he should ever show flashes of hitting .300/25/100 again and the Mets still have no sign of life in the farm system at that point, then he too, must be moved for the betterment of the future. On the contrary, if Wright's struggles continue to say middle or late 2012 and Santana is back in business, Davis/Niese/Martinez/Tejada continue to/are establishing themselves and the then A+/AA players are making noise, then hell to the effing yea, lock #5 up for the rest of his career.
As a man with no (little emotion), I refuse to fall in love with Reyes and his last month of hitting and running. The Mets were here before these two and will continue to be here after. They are not our first and last loves, so move the duff on!
If I come across two roads diverged in the woods then I will gladly take the one less traveled by.
TLDR; Trade Reyes, trade Wright because Robert Frost would do it.

BlackBerry chief executive apologises for technical problems
BlackBerry's chief executive Thorsten Heins apologised today to customers who had suffered disruption.
He said in a statement:
I want to apologise to those BlackBerry customers in Europe and Africa who experienced an impact in their quality of service earlier this morning.
The BlackBerry service is now fully restored and I can report that no data or messages were lost. Up to 6% of our user base may have been impacted.
Preliminary analysis suggests that those customers may have experienced a maximum delay of three hours in the delivery and reception of their messages.
We are conducting a full technical analysis of this quality of service issue and will report as soon as it concludes. I again want to apologise to those customers who were impacted today.

The Woodstock community rallied to raise money for a 19-year-old victim of a hit-and-run accident. Police say William Heaton hit Emily Bowman with his truck in the early morning hours of February 16 while she was walking with a friend in Athens. Investigators say Heaton fled the scene and they found his truck abandoned nearby with empty alcohol containers inside. He later turned himself in.Bowman suffered severe injuries and is recovering at Shepherd Center.Supporters came together to hold a fundraiser for Bowman at the Mellow Mushroom in Woodstock on Tuesday. The owner of the restaurant said that all proceeds from Tuesday's sales will go towards Bowman's medical funds.Debby Bowman, Emily's mother, said that she hopes her daughter can recover enough so she can stay at Shepherd Center and go through therapy there."Everybody that is supporting Emily, it's just amazing and it makes me feel good right here. I can't wait to be able to tell Emily about it, to let her hear what all has been done for her," said Debby Bowman.The owner of the restaurant said that he decided to hold the fundraiser because Bowman began working there the week of the accident.

BRISBANE, Australia (AP) -- Albania striker Besart Berisha scored a 90th-minute winner as Brisbane beat Central Coast 2-1 Sunday in a clash of champions in Australian football's A-League.
Brisbane, league winners in 2011 and 2012, came from behind to claim a 12th win in 17 matches and to move seven points clear of the Western Sydney Wanderers at the top of the table.
Defending champions Central Coast took the lead when Mile Sterjovski converted a 36th-minute penalty but Brisbane equalized through Henrique in the 66th and claimed the win with Berisha's goal in the last minute of normal time.
Both Brisbane goals were set up by midfielder Thomas Broich.

Any Photographer must have a good photo backup strategy. It's like an insurance that reassure your assets aren't going anywhere. Yet, lots of photographers make the mistake of not backing up their work. When you come to think of it, do you really want to take the risk of wasting around your photographs? Proper investment should be made in photo backup services to make sure that you don't lose your hard earned work unless it is nothing more than a point & shoot.
In this post I'm not talking about the photo backup strategy that Scott Kelby & Haje Jan Kamps can afford, we're going to talk about online photo backup services that you can use to live peacefully. Having an online backup is equally important as much as having an offline backup because not only its way more affordable but also the computing is shifting on cloud! (Haven't you heard about cloud computing yet?)
There is lot of innovation happening on the internet, Ph.D., engineers and data-backup experts are devising new techniques of archiving & compression to help common people backup their data at super affordable rates. There are companies whose motto is to making online backup as a house-hold commodity. Pricing has been one of our primary concern, after all who doesn't want photo backups without burning a hole in their pockets? Sure they all vary in terms of features, but set & forget is the feature that we were looking for while doing our research.
Online photo backup services are like bank vaults, your photos are invaluable and they keep it safe!
Here are Best Online Photo Backup Services in 2012
1. BackBlaze
This young open culture company has created waves in the industry of online backups. They've recently secured $5 Million funding, and have even shared their innovation encouraging their competitors to further innovate! What puts them on top of our list? We couldn't find a single negative review; not because of their strategic PR or anything but because all their customers LOVE THEM. After all, for as little as $4/month (2 yr. Bulk pricing – which is $95 for 2 years) they are giving away unlimited space even for business accounts. There are no hidden fee, no strings attached! It might sound like a web trap but believe us, its true! They've been covered and have a nod from almost all the major tech publications. Compared to others, it may not have lot of features but it truly is one of the best online backup service available on the web.
2. CrashPlan
CrashPlan is another company that is making the online backup as house-hold commodity by making it really affordable. Professional photographers should fall in business class however they haven't shared the pricing plans for business users. I think a professional photographer can start with their personal plan which offers $3/computer/month, although, they may have issues with it and may suggest you to upgrade. At the time of writing, their Live chat support wasn't available – so I couldn't clarify this. They've got great reviews from top blogs like MacWorld and have clients like Microsoft, Google, NASA etc.
3. iDrive
iDrive is yet another impressive data backup service. It offers 5 GB of storage for free, however for business accounts (professional photographers in this case) their plans start from $10/month for 100 GB of storage. iDrive has an impressive list of features with like sync facility, runs on various platforms (even Android & iPhone) and has web-based backup management. cnet has given it an impressive rating of 4.5/5.
4. Jungle Disk
Rackspace (one of the largest cloud hosting companies) being the parent company, Jungle Disk has to be impressive. It's pricing has Pay-as-you-go plan along with fixed $2/month charge. So, lets say you've got 50 GB of photos for backup, then with Jungle Disk you'd be paying about $2 + (50×0.15=$7.5) = $9.5/month. It's definitely expensive in terms of what its counter parts are offering, however there would be a lot of photographers who may not want to store that much data. For them, it surely is a good bet.
5. Carbonite
Carbonite is yet another service that has got accolades from the tech community. It's pricing is definitely higher than the above mentioned services, however with a flat fee of $60/month professional photographers are free to back up unlimited photos. Unlike CrashPlan, Carbonite has clearly mentioned on their website that businesses with only 1-2 computers can subscribe to their Home & Home Office plan.
Sure, there are other backup & sync services like Mozy, Dropbox, SugarSync etc. but our idea was to list services that offered generous amount of space for backing up photos and didn't put a dent in the budget as well. All these services have some or the other benefits over each other, we now leave the decision over to you as to which service you would choose!

Anyone who watched the 2010 Carolina Panthers is aware that the offensive line was one of the biggest weaknesses from the horrid 2-14 season that we as Panthers fans had to endure. Thanks to season-ending injuries to an important starter (Jeff Otah) and a guy who failed to show any effort from jump street (Duke Robinson), the offensive line was an incomplete unit for the entire season and had to rely on guys who shouldn't see the field except in blowouts (Mackenzy Bernadeau, for one example) to be starters.
Because of the lack of quality depth on the offensive line the Panthers front office decided to address the issue in the draft by selecting two offensive linemen in the 6th and 7th rounds. Jaxon has already covered the other offensive lineman, Zack Williams, and in this article we will discover what OT Lee Ziemba can bring to the table for the Panthers in 2011 (and hopefully beyond).
Let's take a closer look at Ziemba after the jump...
In case you didn't know, Ziemba was the left tackle for the 2010 National Champion Auburn Tigers (or, if you want to look at it another way, he was Cam Newton's personal body guard in 2010). According to the media, Ziemba was a very good offensive lineman, as he won a myriad of awards last season. Among those awards are:
- AFCA Coaches' All-America
- Walter Camp All-America Team
- FWAA All-America Team
- AP 2nd Team All-America
- SI.com 1st Team All-America
- CBSSports.com 2nd Team All-America
- Rivals.com 2nd Team All-America
- Coaches' 1st Team All-SEC
- AP Unanimous 1st Team All-SEC
According to draft scouts, Ziemba was impressive during the Senior Bowl, especially when considering that he switched positions from LT to RT for the game. Ziemba, however, was quick to give props to the Senior Bowl coaches for preparing him for the contest, saying:
The coaching staff did a good job of preparing us, and I just wanted to go out and execute as well as I could. ... I think I showed that I can learn quick and play with different players, you know? ... I want to be able to go out and get on the field real quick, and I think this was a good experience for me.
Ziemba had a decent combine, but he didn't set the world on fire with his effort. He ran a 5.50 40, benched 225 lbs. 20 times, had a vertical jump of 29", a broad jump of 7'11", a 20 yard shuttle of 4.65 seconds, and a 3-cone drill of 7.74 seconds. His pro day results weren't much different, although he did manage to shave 0.04 seconds off his 40 time and long-jumped 5 inches further (big guys take pride in that kind of stuff, ya know?). While he may not be an athletic freak of nature, he is not too shabby for a guy who's 6'6", 317 lbs., so there should be little concern that he will be unable to compete athletically at the next level.
According to CBS Sports, Ziemba is:
[A] massive mauler of a run blocker who can fire off the snap and move defenders. [He] started as a true freshman, [and is an] extremely experienced and durable prospect with good technique. [He] extends [his] arms well and has a strong punch. [He has a] huge frame, long arms and powerful hands. [He] finishes blocks with attitude, [and is] decent holding up against the bull rush despite his height. [He] can run and hit a second-level target.
The fact that he's a good run blocker makes him a good fit for Carolina, who uses the power running game to their advantage with the horses they have in the backfield. If Ziemba can run block effectively in the NFL, he can immediately make an impact at RG alongside Jeff Otah (if he can finally get healthy) and provide a bulldozing right side for Double Trouble to take advantage of in 2011.
Again according to CBS Sports, Ziemba is:
Somewhat high hipped and stiff, and tends to play high. [He's] not athletic enough to hold up in the NFL off the edge in pass protection, which will require a move inside. [He has] poor lateral agility, [his] knee bend is inconsistent, [and he] tends to lean. [He] lacks good balance and will end up on the ground too often. [He] can whiff in pass protection against quickness, especially double moves.
His weakness in pass protection makes it a near-certainty that he will start off his NFL career as a LG or RG, and if he develops the ability to pass protect at the NFL level he could possibly move to LT in a few years when Jordan Gross is out of the picture, but for the time being it appears that his inability to protect the passer is going to force the Panthers to keep him on the inside of the line. Hopefully his lack of quickness against double moves is something that he can improve throughout the course of training camp and preseason (if there is one), because I'd hate to see him being owned on a consistent basis by a smaller, faster DT.
Value of Pick
Ziemba was projected as a 4th-5th round pick after his performance in the Senior Bowl, so the Panthers got a good value out of the pick since they took him in the 7th round with their final compensatory selection (#244 overall). Hopefully Ziemba turns out to be a draft steal instead of a guy that we look back on and say "no wonder he was still there in the 7th round". I believe that Rivera and Hurney drafted the kid for a reason though, and I doubt that we will look back and regret this pick, especially when it was the last pick we had in the draft.
Starting Potential
I think Ziemba can come in and make the roster if he shows that he can run block at the next level, but he will most likely be stuck behind Geoff Schwartz at RG for the first year or two of his career. He should be a nice backup while he adjusts to the NFL, and he certainly can't be any worse than Mackenzy "The Turnstile" Bernadeau if he were to have to contribute this season. He could even out perform Duke "I don't know if I want to play football or not" Robinson if he works hard enough in training camp and the preseason (again, assuming there is one) and should have a great chance to lock down the backup RG position, depending on whether or not Robsinson decides to show up this year.
Fit in Depth Chart
If he's not a starter in 2011 (which he most likely won't be), I think he's at least in the rotation at RG, because we desperately need depth on the offensive line, and let's face it: the guys we have on the 2nd string right now are guys that most teams wouldn't even have on their practice squad. (Can you hear me MacBern? I'm only saying this so you'll be better -- I promise.)
In closing, I'll just add that I believe we got a draft steal with this pick. I see no reason to hate the pick, especially when I consider that there really isn't that much to choose from when you're choosing who to take with the 244th pick in the draft. If this pick were made in the 2nd or 3rd round, then I'd probably have a slight reason to be concerned, but for a 7th round compensatory pick I see this as a solid opportunity to add a quality starter or rotational guy on the interior offensive line. Besides, as I've already pointed out before, he couldn't possibly be any worse than what we saw on the field in 2010.

The Setup
Just before the halfway point of the race a series of caution flag pit stops had shuffled the running order. Kasey Kahne took only two tires and came off pit road with the lead. Tony Stewart, who had been leading most of the day, took four tires and came out in third.
As they took the green flag Tony jumped to the outside and made the pass for second place. He closed up quickly on Kahne as they headed into turn one and it looked like he just plain ran into the back of Kahne. Kasey hit the outside wall and a bunch of guys behind him also wrecked. To be clear in case you didn't see it, Tony hit Kasey square in the back bumper and turned him around.
The Aftermath
There is little doubt as to what Kasey Kahne and his crewchief Tommy Baldwin think happened. Baldwin ran down to Tony's pit to tell Stewart's crewchief Greg Zipadelli that his driver is a moron. Greg took offense and there was some pushing and shoving between the two teams.
In his interview it was clear that Kasey wasn't happy with Tony's driving. For the most part he took the high road and avoided making any comments that would get him into trouble with NASCAR or his sponsors.
We can expect NASCAR to fine Tommy Baldwin for his part in the melee on pit road. It will be interesting to see what other penalties, if any, NASCAR sees fit to pass out. Given the criticism NASCAR has received this year for their apparent inconsistent handling of rules and penalties you can expect NASCAR to make these penalties fairly severe.
Not Deliberate But Avoidable
Clearly he had the best car all day long and it was still very early in the race so there was no need for Tony to push that hard. He would have taken the lead back in short order anyway if he had lifted and waited a few laps to. Tony had four fresh tires compared to Kahne's two tires so it wasn't a matter of if but rather when he would be back up front.
Let me say it very clearly, I do not believe that Tony intentionally punted Kahne. He simply made a mistake in the midst of close racing. The problem is that people expect Tony to do dumb things intentionally, so any time that the Home Depot car causes a wreck people assume that he did it on purpose.
Tony has a serious image problem with his fellow drivers. He was pushing hard today, caused a wreck unintentionally, and his fellow competitors are upset with him because of his history.
A few years ago Ernie Irvan publicly apologized to his fellow drivers for a similar series of on-track problems and it still took a few years before the other drivers truly trusted him and would race with him. Tony is looking at the same kind of problems for a very long time unless he turns it around soon.

Artem Anisimov with points in four straight (3+2=5) and he dropped the PIM-bomb with 16 PIMs after a hilarious goal celebration that didn't go over so well with the Lightning.
Jose Theodore stopped 40 shots to shutout the high-scoring Bruins last night. Might have to change that nickname to "Three-or-less" as he hasn't given up more than three goals in any of his last 16 games... that is super-solid goaltending.
Michael Del Zotto played 26 minutes and led the Rangers in PP TOI (7:55) last night... he recorded an assist and has five of those over his last six games.
The Wild's Matt Hackett with his first official NHL start last night and he stopped 42 of 44 shots to beat the Kings... very interesting. Backstrom was able to dress as the backup and could be ready for their next game but we'll see if they decide to let the kid ride until he cools off.
With 1+1=2 & seven shots last night, Zach Parise extended his point streak to six games (2+6=8). Same streak for Ilya Kovalchuk (4+3=7). The third member of the terrific trio, Adam Henrique, with two assists to run his streak to seven games (2+7=9). Henrique is up to 3rd in rookie scoring... loving this kid.
Olli Jokinen with the GWG last night and he has 3+3=6 & 15 shots over his last four games.
Jared Spurgeon with 23 minutes of ice-time and another assist last night, so he has 1+7=8 over his last 13 games... definitely worth a look-see.
Mason Raymond with his first goal (SHG) since his return last night and he should have had an assist as well in 19 minutes of action. So let's call it three points in three games.
The return hasn't been so triumphant for Kyle Turris as he doesn't have a point in five games so far. He did play over 12 minutes for the first time last night (17:31) with 3:28 on the PP but, predictably, Tippett is using him on the 3rd/4th line.
Ray Emery finished his third straight game going 31/33 to beat the Islanders... Coach Q said afterwards that he's considering going back with Emery in the Hawks next game on Sunday. I smell a goalie controversy in the oven.
Tyler Seguin was back in the lineup after being scratched last game but maybe he still hasn't woken up as he has just 2+3=5 over his last 11 games.
Notable healthy scratches last night: Yannick Weber & Jonathon Blum.
Both Brett Connolly & Devante Smith-Pelly are expected to be released by their clubs and will try-out for team Canada's WJC entry. So they'll likely be missing from NHL action for the next month and there is always a chance that the team decides to send them back to Jr. once the tourney is over.
The Bruins have signed Dougie Hamilton, the 9th overall pick from this summer's draft, to an ELC. He currently leads the OHL in scoring by a dman.
The Leafs have sent Joe Colborne down to the AHL.

Alphabetical List of Critters - Deer Flies
Deer flies (genus Chrysops) are very pesky flies of not only humans, but also other mammals such as cattle, horses, dogs, etc. They are very similar to horse flies, which share the same family (Tabanidae). They have distinctive, large eyes that are patterned with gold or green, and dark bands across their wings. The females are the ones that bite, in search of a blood meal, whereas the males simply feed on pollen. The bite of the female is often quite painful, resembling a bee sting for many people, and a lot of people react to the fly's saliva, causing pain and itching at the site of the bite. Significant allergic reactions can develop for some people.
The flies are abundant in damp, wooded or wetland environments, due to the fact that their larvae are aquatic, feeding on small insects and pupating in the mud at the edge of the water. Natural predators of deer flies include frogs, toads, spiders, wasps and hornets, dragonflies, and birds such as the killdeer.

Thanks Chico1985!
A- Poured to two matching mini snifters from the 12oz bottle. Pitch black, thick oily body with a small light mocha tan head. Head never reaches a finger and dies fairly quickly to a fine ring at the edges. Just a few spots of lace.
S- Big roast and a pretty good amount of dessert dark fruitiness to it. Dark, fudgey cocoa richness from the roast malts off the top with a cherry plum like dark fruit beneath giving it some truffle feel. Slight hops and just the tiniest hint of alcohol beneath the rest. Hops deepen with time.
T- Opens up with some interesting aspects here. Dry, super dark roast and malty overall with notes of bitter cocoa powder, coffee and even some smoke. Dark fruits and hops actually take over with warmth lending plum, cherry, currants, citrus, pine and earthy notes. The hops increase for me quite a bit but not to a Black IPA level, just some nice earthy and citrus hints in with the roast.
MF- Medium to thick body with a fairly creamy overall texture. Carbonation is a bit on the low side but there is enough to support the complex flavors. Finishes with slight warmth (for 12.12%) and some hop bitterness.
A lot of nice complex flavors beyond the standard roast malts. The deep fruits present are quite nice with the roast and the hops add a nice dimension to it all. Extra points for that. I would certainly have this again.

250ml bottle, thanks wordemupg. Pours jet black with a dark brown head. Aroma of roasted malts, chocolate, smoke, molasses, and a little booze. Big flavor, mostly coffee and chocolate, as well as prunes, molasses, and licorice. Chewy full body with light carbonation. A tasty imperial stout, I enjoyed this one.

On-tap at the Mikkeller pub in Copenhagen.
Pours black with a two-finger dark brown head - the head is one of the darkest I have seen in a while. It eventually settles into a thin layer on top leaving thick lacing.
Smells of sweet and dark molasses backed by good amounts of dark chocolate and mildly roasted malts.
Tastes similar to how it smells. Lightly roasted malt flavors kick things off before being overtaken by loads of molasses flavors. Midway through the sip the sweetness is toned down a bit with the addition of unsweetened chocolate flavors that carry through to an ending that remains decidedly on the sweeter side.
Mouthfeel is very good. It's got a very nice thickness with soft carbonation.
Drinkability is also very good. I finished my glass quickly and could have another.
Overall despite the large amount of sweetness up front it manages to level out through the end. Not the best-balanced beer ever but one that's worth a shot.

250ml wee bottle. Weird Afro-sporting red boxer caricature on the label - George Foreman tribute, perhaps?
This beer pours an indubitable and unblemished black, with two fingers of dense, creamy, Brown Cow brown head, which leaves some sparse random blots of lace around the glass as it evenly settles. It smells of thick caramel toffee malt, mild smoke, molasses syrup, and leafy, musty hops. The taste is strong chocolate malt, edgy black licorice, dark indeterminate fruit, coffee grounds, and earthy, dry leafy hops. The carbonation is very sedate, the body full in weight, thick, and creamy in the Balkan yogourt sense. It finishes still big on a one-pack-a-day smoky caramel chocolate bent, with a herbal, musty offset keeping things just this side of sane.
Whooooweee! All those semi-literate words, and not one mention of the demon alcohol. Now why is that? Well, apparently, it is possible to hide a 22 proof ABV in a melange of chocolate, coffee, and hops. Huh. Bravo. Bravo, indeed.

For some reason or another I woke up at night. Now a couple hours later I am still awake and now I know why; I just have to drink something special. I had a look at my collection and selected the George, so lets give it a try.
A - Looks pretty damn good. A pitch black beer with a brown head that very slowly retracts. Looks a bit like 'the Messy', so its very promising.
S - Chocolate, oak wood, peat, roasted malts, espresso and some sweetness added to the flavor. Man I just can't stop smelling this beer, gorgeous.
T - To much peat and wood for my, it overwhelms the other flavors. Is was such a promise and now its lost. There is how ever some dark fruit to be discovered. I find it rather dry compared to the flavor.
M - Low to medium carbonation, a bit sticky. The bitterness and the alcohol come in the end. This beer has got the nicest warming after taste, its rare indeed.
O - It's a special brew thats for sure, but so close after the Borefts beer festival I must say its a bummer. The balance is off in this one.

Thanks Svend. 250 ml bottle is more than enough. Big boozy splash of thick coffee and sourness. Black, little white head. Good for what it is, but not a RIS I want again. A little infected or intentional I cannot tell. Not the best I have had from this brewer.

Massive thanks goes out to BRoss242 who shared this one with the group at the "Evening Wood" tasting graciously hosted by cmrillo! Served from bottle into a Mikkeller flute. Poured pitch black with a minimal brown head. Maintained nice lacing throughout the glass. The aroma was comprised of sweet malt, roasted malt, wood, and smoke. The flavor was of sweet malt, roasted malt, BIG smoke, and wood. It had a very thick and heavy feel on the palate with mild carbonation. Overall this was a pretty good brew. You would never know it was weighing in at 11%+ though. There was no sign of the alcohol anywhere. Maybe it was covered up by the big smokiness??? Who knows... But I do know that it was quite nice on the flavor and aroma. Definitely worth giving it a shot if you can. You won't regret it.

Bottle: Poured a pitch-black color stout with a huge dark brown foamy head with good retention and some light lacing. Aroma of black chocolate with light roasted coffee and some light vanilla notes. Taste is also a great mix between some huge black chocolate notes which are well balanced by some vanilla notes and some light coffee notes at the end. Body is super full with limited filtration and good carbonation with no apparent alcohol. Very well done with some super good vanilla notes which make this beer very drinkable and complex at the same time.

Corpus Christi police: 2 teens and woman injured in 5-vehicle crash
CORPUS CHRISTI - Three people were taken to the hospital Friday from a five-vehicle pileup on South Padre Island Drive near Weber Road, police said.
A 13-year-old boy, 16-year-old girl and 45-year-old woman were taken to the hospital, police said.
Police did not have information regarding their injuries.
A 44-year-old man drove a 2003 GMC pickup into a 2008 Volkswagen parked on the shoulder of the freeway about 7:30 a.m., according to police. The pickup spun and struck a 2007 Ford SUV in the right lane, which then collided with a 2003 Chrysler van pushing it into a 2006 Dodge Charger, as the SUV rolled onto its side.
The man driving the pickup was cited for making an unsafe change from a direct course.

MIDLAND – Official says annual event similar to antique, classic boat show
Susan Campbell feels lucky she has the opportunity to cook meals for the homeless.
She's proud her Willow Creek Baptist Church congregation had the opportunity this fall to make a full meal once a month for the Out of the Cold program.
"The program is full – they don't need more people to take over meals. Once churches start volunteering, they don't stop," said Campbell.
They started volunteering with the program several years ago, making desserts. While she was worried about how it would go, the program soon blossomed.
Her three children would help with the baking, and even came a few times as she dropped the goodies off.
"It was really neat; our son would wait outside and talk to a couple of the visitors."
Campbell said "there was a feeling that we need to do more" so she asked if the family could bake dinner.
Their first meal was a turkey dinner, then they did lasagna, but were told guests eat casseroles throughout the week and would like a real, sit-down dinner on Sundays.
"We've told our volunteers to cook the meat on Saturday, bring it to the church Sunday so we can warm it up. Then we make it a family thing and peel the potatoes and start boiling the water," said Campbell.
When peeling dozens of potatoes for mashing, Campbell said it doesn't feel like she's sacrificing her time.
Recently, they prepped three roasts and a salad, for the approximately 35 guests who attend the Out of the Cold program.
She can't imagine what it's like to not have a warm place to sleep every night. "We've lowered our heat to try and save energy, and on a cold night when I get up in the middle of the night, I think there are potentially people sleeping on the street.
"We take heat for granted."
Meal-makers are still needed for the Out of the Cold program, and for details, visit www.barrieoutofthecold.org or call 705-331-1396.

Smash & Grab: Wladimir Klitschko vs David Haye Preview & Prediction
by Andrew Harrison (Safe Side Of The Ropes) For the first time in eight long and monotonous years, a heavyweight boxing match looms into view which actually merits attention worldwide. Ukrainian Wladimir Klitschko, the incumbent world heavyweight champion lauded in some quarters as a dominant presence, despite the very strong argument that he isn't even the best big man in his own family, finally faces a challenge in the shape of the garrulous Briton, David Haye.

Okay, we've exhausted the Crisp and He Who Shall Not Traded For rumors, but here's a new one at the end of Phil Roger's MLB Whispers colum was this nugget:
Dodgers manager Joe Torre faces a real dilemma. Both Matt Kemp and Andre Ethier have played rings around No. 1 left fielder Juan Pierre this spring, but Pierre is signed for four more years at $9 million per, which makes it tough to put him on the bench. Pierre lost his center-field job with the signing of Andruw Jones and really isn't enough of a hitter to play a corner spot. He will be a defensive liability too.
Now, I'm not sure whether or not the Dodgers are willing to part with either Kemp or Ethier, but both are promising OF prospects, both have the wheels to play CF (Kemp actually logged 9 games there last season) and Kemp massacred lefties last season, posting a (likely unsustainable) .390/.432/.570/1.002 line in 100 AB vs. LHP, while Ethier posted a .279/.319/.376/.716 line in 111 AB vs. LHP. Also, both players hit well in day games, with Kemp posting a .400/.489/.589/1.010 line is day games (vs. a .310/.352/.490 line in night games) and Ethier clubbing his way to a .320/.401/.563/.964 line in day games (vs. a .270/.330/.408/.737 line in night games), making them well-suited to playing for our Cubbies.
Seems like the Dodgers would be in the market for a long man in the pen and Perhaps a 5th starter. Maybe Marshall or Marquis and a couple prospects could get the deal done.
What say you, Cub fans?

Microsoft tablet push detrimental to company overall
Back when Apple brought out the iPod, Microsoft figured they would get into the market of music players. This warranted the release of the Zune, which failed miserably. Microsoft suffered through five years of poor sales before finally calling it quits on the device, while the iPod has grown into an enormous success. Microsoft is once again getting into the hardware market against Apple with the release of their Surface tablet. And while there are signs of it being different this time around, Microsoft's hardware push will still flounder and hurt the company.
One of the initial problems is the pricing. The basic model for the Surface tablet, keyboard not included, costs about $500. A basic model of the iPad is roughly the same. So why is the pricing such a problem? If consumers are going to shell out $500 for a tablet, they are going to go with the one that has been around for a while and has been refined as opposed to the unproven new kid on the block. Apple products will always have high markups, so any device trying to compete needs to be priced considerably lower. The pricing woes only continue as Microsoft readies to launch the second member of the Surface family in the Surface Pro. The tablet runs x86 Windows 8 which makes it compatible with all the Windows software that normally runs on a desktop. It costs $899 for a 64GB model and $999 for a 128GB model. Not only is this priced higher than most tablets, but also most PCs that could run Windows 8 just as well.
The criticism of the hardware is only confirmed with the sales. On Black Friday, Microsoft's massive spending on research, development and advertising proved futile in making a dent in Apple's market share. At the Mall of America, research firm Piper Jaffray collected data on Black Friday in which Apple reportedly sold 17.2 items per hours while Microsoft only pushed out 3.5 items per hour. To add insult to injury, the majority of Microsoft sales that day came from Xbox games as opposed to the Surface tablet. Meanwhile, Apple was sitting pretty selling approximately 11 iPads per hour between their new iPad and the new iPad Mini.
Poor sales aside, Microsoft's push for hardware may also burn some bridges. The Surface tablet puts Microsoft in direct competition with many of its partners who also make tablets and PCs. One of the most vocal partners has been Acer. The company has stated their displeasure with Microsoft's competition and believes the Surface has been a negative for the PC industry as a whole.
Traditionally, Microsoft has been good at software. However, their push for hardware may be hurting their prowess in software as well. Microsoft designed Windows 8 to work across laptops, tablets, and smart phones. This however may only have hurt the operating system. The reactions to Windows 8 have been incredibly lukewarm, if not critical. Many users have complained about the learning curve and reviewers haven't been much more positive. Microsoft is learning the hard way that operating systems for mobile devices and a computer work great separately, but flounder when combined. The hardware push has come with the added need to create an app marketplace. Microsoft has also dropped the ball here. There has been no excitement for developers to create apps for Windows. And while Microsoft can showboat how it got 20,000 apps in the first month, it pales in comparison to the Apple App Store. To make matters worse, a majority of downloads were free apps. Microsoft has gone with a pricing model that starts at $1.49. In terms of how people spend money on apps, this is much more expensive than the average app in either the Apple or Android marketplace and will likely deter purchases.
So, no matter what any colorful commercials may convene, Microsoft's push for hardware is proving to not hold up once again. Sales wise, they have not been able to compete with the iPad. Instead they have alienated partners, hurt the software that was their bread and butter and have the makings of another hardware flub.
