The "rating" system
I hope I don't sound like I'm whining but I'm really getting tired of these stupid, fucking, little kids, who don't know how to play guitar, giving me (and others) a low vote because THEY suck. It's an ongoing problem. Who's gonna want to look at a tab with a 1/5 vote?
For example: Dark Tranquillity - Cathode Ray Sunshine. This tab if FROM Martin Hendrikson of DARK TRANQUILLTY!!!!!!!!!! How much more perfect can one get?!?!?!?!? :angry: Some dick gave me a vote of 1... This is just one exampe. There are many many more.
I'm tired of these fucks coming here clicking a button and leaving. You should HAVE to be a registered member to vote. Why give the privileges to the one's who just surfed in? Furthermore, each vote should be uniqe and show who the voter is. Maybe it would stop these backstabbing fucks?
Anyway, I don't give a shit. It just makes me not even want make anymore tabs for these ungrateful little kids.
i hear ya man...maybe just get rid of the rating system all together...but then again, for most of the bands on this site, thier isn't anymore than 2 or 3 different tabs across the entire internet of these bands, and in some cases the tabs on this site are the only ones, so regarldess of the rating, i tihn most people who actually take the time to search for a tab will look at it reagardless of the rating....at least they should...
but yeah, fucking moron kids.
mm, yeah I agree, I mean, theres lots of tabs with a relatively low rating whilst they aren't all that bad.
my tabs all have high rating because most of the poeple that used them where directed to those tabs by myself, and not many others would want to use that tab, I only tabbed songs of a pretty unknown band, so not many people will use/vote for them, thats why they've got a high rating, if you take, lets say a random slayer song, loads of poeple will play it and vote for it, some cunts just can't even read tabs descently and get pissed and vote '1', which is just stupid.
I guess the rating system has its advantages, but it has its disadvantages too.
You're reading my thoughts mate :)
I will change it so that only registered members will be able to vote. In addition, I might also implement user comments on tabs, I'm still not sure if it's a useful feature.
This will be done around May. :beer:
Comments on the rating should go "hand in hand" or required with a vote. Because how else will we be able to perfect a tab that is exactly right in the first place...:rolleyes:. Heh, and make it so you can only vote ONCE.
i'd say comments are more usefull then the rating system itself...sure people might still comment "THIS SUCKS, YOU SUCK" even if it doesn't, but then someone else will tell the first guy he's a moron and that'll be that...and there might actually be constructive criticism like "oh you missed a note at the end of this riff, it sould be this" etc.
so yeah looking forward to the comment deal. :beer:
Would the comments be only for registered users too?
The comments/corrections thing is a good idea. For people who dont think it is right they can look at the comments/corrections and just try another way to see if its right.
I agree with everyone above. That's all I've seen a lot lately, is a bunch of teens doing what was mentioned above. A lot of them have no clue what it's like to even write and tab music in general. Some tabs take forever, while some are easy as hell...Either way, the comment thing would be a great idea while only members have access..
OK, I'm with that then. You wouldn't get all the "YOUR TAB SUCKS" nonsense then.
..Unless someone registers solely for that purpose, of course.
its a pity that the tabs dont stay too long in the posting forum, whcich would give people a bit of a chance to put a few comments in there
I agree with BOC
then post quicker, ;)
Seems like a good idea to me. The user comments will give anyone viewing the tab an idea of how the tab has been received by other members and could possibly influence a more accurate vote rather than just an ignorant click of 1.
A log of who voted would be a good idea too because that would also encourage people to be honest with their votes and not deliberately give a tab a low score out of petulance.
How about that a tab is required to have at least one vote from a mod? There are a few mods around so taking the time to rate a tab of a song that they are familiar with shouldn't take too long. Each tab could have a "moderated by ---" tag and the respective vote. I think this would also influence people to vote honestly and would give every tab at least one vote and therefore a rating. Maybe this would be too time consuming for the mods, but I think it would be a good feature.
I vote quite often. I've given most of your tabs a top rating, John. And a few other great tabs I've seen on here I have given the highest rating. It wouldn't be time consuming for me, as it's just a regular thing.
It seems there's a lot of voter apathy around, but you're the obvious exception, Nihilist! I try to vote for all the tabs that I know, especially since the top tabber list has been up and running.
A voting log is a great idea!
Also, how about moderating all user comments? This can be easily implemented with vB engine but will add some work to moderators.
I will try to control myself... :D

Baseball Poll Numbers
I found this at Fay's blog, and it seemed interesting. Baseball is more popular amongst educated and rich folks. It is also more popular with African Americans rather than white's. It is much more popular with men rather than women. The Yankee's are America's favorite team and surprisingly the Blue Jay's are America's least favorite team. Also at least one fan thinks every team will win the World Series, even the Pirates, Royals, Brewers, and Cubs.

ATLANTA - With only nine days remaining before Georgia Tech's opening game, Ted Roof feels the time crunch as he tries to put the finishing touches on his 4-3 defense.
ATLANTA - Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson turned to Ted Roof, a member of the Yellow Jackets' "Black Watch" defenses in the mid-1980s - to try to fix the team's glaring weakness.
ATLANTA - After Georgia Tech's first "fall" practice on Thursday, head coach Paul Johnson said two things with certainty: He saw a lot of familiar faces, and the Yellow Jackets appear to be in good shape. Beyond that, questions abound.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Philip Pfeifer threw five scoreless innings and Xavier Turner drove in three runs to lead No. 2 overall seed Vanderbilt to a 7-1 victory over Georgia Tech in an NCAA regional championship game Monday night.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Jordan Parr hit two home runs to lead Illinois to a 6-4 win over Georgia Tech in an NCAA regional Friday.
MILTON - Top-seeded California survived a quarterfinal scare from Pac-12 rival Arizona State on Friday to advance to the semifinals in the NCAA golf championship.
MILTON - Max Homa took off his cap, wiped his brow and shook hands with his two playing partners on the 18th hole.
ATLANTA - Georgia Tech players use words like "high-energy" and "intense" to describe their first week with new defensive coordinator Ted Roof.
GREENSBORO, N.C. - The shot clock was winding down on Olivier Hanlan, and all the Boston College freshman could do was launch a deep 3-pointer that somehow went in.
ATLANTA - Brian Gregory doesn't want his Georgia Tech players to aim for being the surprise team in this week's Atlantic Coast Conference tournament.
ATLANTA - K.J. McDaniels scored 14 points and Milton Jennings blocked a potentially tying 3-pointer at the buzzer, preserving Clemson's 56-53 victory over Georgia Tech on Thursday night.
BLACKSBURG, Va. - Searching for its first true road win of the season, Georgia Tech ventured to a locale that had not been hospitable to the Yellow Jackets over the years.
ATLANTA - Paul Johnson shrugged when told Georgia Tech's signing class didn't excite the national experts.
CLEMSON, S.C. - K.J. McDaniels scored 15 points, including two foul shots with 16 seconds left, as Clemson held on to defeat Georgia Tech 63-60 on Tuesday night, its sixth straight victory over the Yellow Jackets.
ATLANTA - Paul Johnson's first two years at Georgia Tech are looking better and better - and increasingly distant in the past.
ATLANTA - Georgia Tech starting quarterback Justin Thomas is planning to lead an attack that emphasizes the Yellow Jackets' traditional strength.

A seinen manga about the legendary "sword saint" Miyamoto Musashi, said by many to be the greatest samurai of all time. Written and drawn by Takehiko Inoue, the author of the extremely popular Slam Dunk, this series boasts amazing artwork, an engrossing story, and some of the best Character Development seen not just in manga, but in any media.The story itself is based on the novel Musashi, a semi-historical fictional account of Musashi's life. So while the series is firmly rooted in truth, artistic liberties were definitely taken.The story starts with two 17-year-olds, Shinmen Takezo — a half-wild loner raised by the sword — and his only friend Hon'iden Matahachi. Having fought on the losing side at the Battle of Sekigahara, the young men struggle to survive until they're rescued by a girl named Akemi and her mother Oko, who make a living by robbing corpses. After Takezo and Matahachi save the two women from the Tsujikaze gang, Matahachi decides to elope with Oko to Kyoto instead of returning home with Takezo to his fianc�e, Otsu.Matahachi's mother refuses to accept this, instead blaming Takezo for her son's absence, which leads to a village-wide hunt for Takezo (not helped by his inhuman aggression and tendency to beat men to death with sticks). He's eventually captured by a monk using cheap tricks—namely convincing Otsu to track him down, knowing he'd lower his guard—and hung from a tree to think on his sins.Unbeknownst to the villagers, the monk, the legendary Takuan Soho, frees Takezo after a few days, rechristens him, and sends him off on the journey that changes him into a Living Legend and, eventually, the figure we know today.Now has a character page that still needs a ton of Wiki Magic.

On that display alone yesterday from shola proves what percy thinks of cisse at this moment on time, And how desperate nufc are for another cf.
I know he has been a loyal servant to the club but honestly tell yourself if this guy would actually get in to any teams in the top 8 and there will be your answer that he is simply not good enough and never has been.
not sholas fault, inept ownership yes ball less manager yes
There are times when Shola can be very effective but also times when he is completely anonymous and unfortunately yesterday was the latter. I thought it was a brave team choice to try and attack West Brom but it didn't work and then after the sending off all our plans went Tango Uniform!
Never said it was strolla's fault, Just stating an obvious fact that he is not good enough and never has been.An impact sub……….maybe but that at best.Look at his record through the years and that is pathetic.
Inept ownership I totally agree as everytime we are blessed with a top notch striker we sell, and then expect shola to drop into that slot as an infill
Just been speaking with a mackem in the office. Acording to him and views of other mackems, SKY TV want to show Mackem game at 5.30ko on 1 Feb. has anyone else heard anything??
No Live game planned so far by SKY for the 5.30 slot.

A nearly 100 year old Bismarck apartment building catches fire this morning forcing residents and several area businesses to evacuate.
Workers welding pipe accidentally started the fire.
Tenants describe how they managed to get out as smoke quickly filled the building.
Some were able to save their pets while others were left hoping and praying.
Flames and smoke poured out of windows in the Norma Apartment building on third street shortly after ten am.
No one was injured but several tenants were inside at the time.
Stephanie Dimitch was on her couch when she noticed smoke coming out of the walls.
"I ran back and got my cats and I was running to my neighbors door to try and wake him up and get him out and he tried to grab the fire extinguished but like I said there were no flames it was just complete black smoke everywhere," says Stephanie Dimitch.
Seventy-five firefighters had the blaze under control within an hour. Streets were blocked off in the area as hundreds gathered to watch
Katie Nickell hurried back from work to find her cat Kiki had somehow survived.
"If my apartment burned down I didn't care I just wanted my cat. It's all I got here," says Katie Nickell.
Another woman was also counting her blessings.
"I have fourteen small bird and I just got word that they are all ok. I had them covered up and my windows open so they're doing good," says Lori Johnson.
Crews searched all eighteen apartments and determined the fire likely started in the southeast corner on the second floor. .
"These type buildings there are redone over the years we might have more than once ceiling in some cases, the type of construction, difficult area to get into, this is a living type area so we had occupants to search for as well. So a very physical type firefight," says Chief Joel Boesflug.
For KX News, I'm Tom Gerhardt.
Damage is estimated at $500,000.
The apartment was built in 1916 according to businessman Skip Duemland.
By noon all area businesses except JL Beers reopened and employees were allowed back to work.
Fire chief Joel Boesflug says he doesn't think the restaurant/bar was damaged.
Evangelist Franklin Graham prayed on a sidewalk outside the Pentagon Thursday after his invitation to a prayer service inside was withdrawn because of comments that insulted people of other religions. More>>

I know this season isn't technically over (see Terps circa 2004) but in the wake of my first ever experience witnessing a loss at comcast (I am a sophomore from New York and wasn't, for different reasons, at any of our previous losses although I go to every game I get lottery tickets for) I started thinking about our team next season and the potential we have. Also I really don't want to study for my test monday anymore.
Assuming for a moment that GWhitt doesn't commit, our roster looks like this:
Stogln, MVPe, Mosley, JWill, Parker, Padge, Pankey, Hawk, Weijs, Faust, Gibbs, Beuring, Levent
We know that 11 of those 13 (sorry Ersin, we still love you and Pankeys health has yet to be established) can play solid minutes at the very least.
Established star Williams showed last offseason he is willing to put in an insane amount of work to improve his game (lost 21 lbs and went from a loveable pudgy contributer to a jacked, dominant star). He already has incredible post moves so we have to assume he will be working on his jump shot and free throws this offseason, meaning that his already eye popping 18/12 may actually improve. That should scare the ACC.
Stoglin and Howard have emerged as the backcourt of the future. Both have great potential. Stogs should get serious consideration for ACC ROY and Howard may not have the high ceiling of Stogs but he certainly has shown glimpses of exceptional play. Obviously they are froshs so they should improve next year.
Mosley has obviously been a disappointment offensively but we know he can defend with the best of them and hopefully he puts in the work in the offseason to have a great senior year and go out in style.
Parker and Pankey are anomalies. Both have some skills or they wouldnt be at a D1 program but at this point anything we get out of them in the coming years is a gravy. That said, I expect Parker to be Millbourne esque and be a contributer after a largely invisible freshman season.
Hawk is Hawk, and we all love him. He is the epitome of a SOLID all around player. Not great at anything but good at almost everything.
Weijs...needs to put on muscle. I really have nothing more to say about him.
Now the incoming freshman:
I honestly think that if you just inserted Faust into our team this year, we dont lose most of the game we did and we are top 20 team and a 3-4 seed in the tourny. This is purely based on what I have heard about him and I expect great things. A 6-5 guy who can play 2/3 is exactly what this team needs. He can hit the 3, defend well and drive and finish at the basket. I see the our future.
Gibbs may end up being the steal of this class. He obviously can ball and has the pedigree. It seems that stogs has established himself at the point but there is nothing bad about having depth.
Beuring is the key I think to this class. If his youtubes are any indication, he is exactly what we have been waiting for for a looooong time...a tall, 3-4 shooter who can hit a 3 and at the same time throw it down. We have made Kyle F**king Singler comparisons and while he might not be as good, anything close would be amazing.
Sorry for this novel I just wrote but I am VERY optimistic about next season in a way I wasn't about this season. We knew this would be a hard one and rebuilding year. So with this projected starting 5 by ACC season I think we will make some serious noise in the ACC and maybe nationally.
Stogs, Howard, Faust, Breuning, JWill
That team can shoot the lights out as well as athletically keep up with anyone the ACC throws at us.
Prediction: 22-25 wins and a shot at the ACC regular season champ.


text: I am happy to see that a lot of D-league guys are getting called up but why do teams wait till the end of the season to make call ups. Some of the D-league players have shown that after the first half of there season that they belong in the NBA. Some of them played on NBA summer leagues and showed that they can play. The thanks that they get is to get called up by a team that is not going to make the playoffs and fill in for practices for players that are going to sit out unitil next season.

Grafton man shot by police had been sought since 2011
Larry A. Bohannon, 51, of Grafton received two concurrent 20-year sentences in 1994 for a kidnapping conviction in Sullivan County and bail-jumping conviction in Cheshire County, Department of Corrections spokesman Jeffrey J. Lyons said Monday.
"He still had an active warrant for being a fugitive from justice. We hadn't seen or heard from him since June 2011," Lyons said.
Bohannon and another man, David Ward, were charged with kidnapping Donald Coull of Claremont on Oct. 18 1993, "to recoup stolen property, reportedly a generator." Coull denied taking the generator. Coull told police he was lured into a pickup truck in Claremont, shackled and driven around for three hours before being released in Bellows Falls, Vt.
Senior Assistant Attorney General Janice Rundles said Saturday that Bohannon was involved in an armed robbery in Bellows Falls, Vt., on Friday in which he "was said to have worn a ski mask and carried a handgun."
Bohannon fled to New Hampshire, with officers from Walpole and Alstead pursuing his vehicle.
"At the end of the pursuit, shots were fired, and the suspect was killed at the scene," Rundles said.
She said she couldn't comment on whether Bohannon fired at police or whether authorities recovered a handgun. She said he failed to comply with orders from police.
Bohannon was first paroled in April 1996, then returned in October that year on a technical parole violation. He remained incarcerated until March 1997. Ten years later, in December 2007, he was arrested again on another technical parole violation; he remained in prison until June 2008. When he failed to meet with his parole officer a month later, a warrant for his arrest was issued on the charge of fugitive from justice.
On Friday, Bohannon died from gunshot wounds to the head, chest and abdomen, authorities said.

You know by my screen name that I live in the east San Francisco Bay Area, but I grew up on the west side of Phoenix. And, while you might recognize scenes like this from San Francisco,
via therumpus.net
where I live, it's more like this.
via imagecache2.allposters.com
Napa? Pssssh. Livermore is the place for vineyards and wineries! I sometimes ride my bike past scenes like this and feel like I should have a baguette in my basket, making me totally French. But then I start to feel like Boris Diaw, am ashamed, and those thoughts end.
Anyway, we also have some Suns fans out here in NorCal. Who is a Bay Area Suns fan who is interested in meeting fellow BSOTS-ers for a game? The season is ending soon, so we don't have many more chances to make this happen. My suggestion is to meet up Sunday the 10th for a 4:30 game against the Mavs. Site to be determined based on input here.
Will the Suns show up to play that day? Maybe. Will the game be ugly? Fair chance of that. Will Steve Nash play? Who knows? But, "so what?" to all of those questions. We'll get to meet each other, put faces to names, and make smartass comments about random topics regardless. It'll be like a game thread, only using our tongues instead of our fingers.
It will probably make sense to do this in San Francisco since I think most Bay Area BSOTS-ers are there or close to there. Plus, San Francisco is one of the greatest cities in the world, so there is that. Who's in? Suggestions on specific location? I have a couple of ideas, but would love to hear what others think.

Imagine if your child's teacher was carrying a gun while in the classroom?
Some Missouri lawmakers want that to happen after tragedies like the school shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut.
But not all local school officials agree.
And Hannibal Public Schools Superintendent Jill Janes say while student safety is always a major concern, armed teachers is not the right approach. And some Hannibal parents agree.
"Teachers are there to teach. They are not qualified to be a patrol officer," said Stella Banghart.
Banghart's daughter Alanah is a second grader at Mark Twain Elementary School in Hannibal. Banghart doesn't agree with proposed legislation to allow teachers to carry concealed weapons in classrooms in Missouri.
"I don't think teachers should have guns in classrooms. I figure it would be too dangerous," said Banghart.
The legislation has more than two dozens sponsors in the Missouri House. Proponents of the bill say people would think twice about attacking schools if they knew teachers were armed.
But Governor Jay Nixon says he has "serious concerns" about the legislation. And Janes agrees.
"I think there is different ways you can keep your school safe. My thing is I think teachers need to have the ability to teach first. You know that is what they are trained to do. They are not trained to be a law enforcement person," said Janes.
Earlier this month, a group of parents spoke out at a school board meeting concerned about safety in light of the Sandy Hook tragedy.
Janes says the school board continues to have discussions about how they can improve the safety of their schools because their first priority is the protecting their students.
"You have to do everything you can possible. So lock your doors, surveillance cameras. Security. Whatever you can do. SRO's on campus. You just have to look at all angles and you have to figure out what is best for that school campus," said Janes.
The Missouri School Boards Association also opposes the legislation.

Turning Hate into Love: Documentary Tells Stories of Spiritual Transformations following Terror Attacks
9/11/2013 (Updated 11:22:39 PM)A film maker with roots in the Southern Tier presented a documentary at B.U. Wednesday about 9/11 and its effects on three families who lost loved ones in the attacks as well as those lost in other terrorist bombings around the world.
Don Hardy's film explores not only the horror and the evil of the terrorist act, but also the spiritual journey of families who turned their hate into love and hope for a better world.
"Out of that really dark day a lot of good things had happened. We wanted to try and tell that story of some of the positive outcomes of darkness and hatred, what we saw on September 11th. We can all maybe do something, try to turn a negative into a positive and try to do something for our fellow man in some kind of way. And that's the message we hope people take away from the film," said film maker Don Hardy.
The documentary is entitled The Ripple Effect: Fighting Hate with Love.

Bumped. Enjoy. - BN Eds.
Well, this didn't start out as a multi-part series, but with the inspired creation of a whole new branch of literary verse (Chiantiku) by JoeBruin15, I've been encouraged to forego any shame, and so I hereby continue to torture the elegant art of Haiku with this sequel to Howku (Howland Haiku). If Hollywood can do sequels, why can't I?
Besides, in the efforts to restore UCLA athletics to a proper and deserved state of health and integrity, every little bit helps, right? But, even if not, there is always the welcome relief of earned and targeted ridicule. With these thoughts in mind, I present the second installment of "BNkus" (pron. "B-N koos")--Chiantiku. Next up: Blocku.
Please consider this an open thread. As you did with Howku, and as Joe did in inventing them, post your own Chiantikus. The agile minds on BN always make for interesting reading, and I know that many will enjoy some good old-fashioned Doughnut roasting. Anyway, the more sardonic 5-7-5 barbs that are cast his way, the less embarrassed I'll have to feel about trashing Haiku.
To seem virtuous,
Say, "John R. Wooden" often.
Smile, and look pious.
Beam authority.
Never ask questions, per se.
Best to sit quiet.
When you have questions,
Begin them with, "F-Y-I,"
So you look in charge.
Take credit when there,
If you don't, someone else will.
Get in front of praise.
To answer critics,
Paint them all as demanding.
Ask them, "What's wrong with..."
To find a new coach,
Don't work too hard to persuade.
Let them come to you.
To appear daring,
When you need to hire a coach,
Pay him through the nose.
To appear frugal,
Trade on UCLA's name.
Pay cents on the buck.
To appear with-it,
Hire teenagers, and have them
Put your face online.
To appear engaged,
Give them some Words from Westwood.
One question per week.
Know who your boss is.
Flatter him at ev'ry chance,
Plant lips on his ass.
Know who's not your boss.
Students are your least concern.
They don't pay your wage.
Spaulding's just a name.
Eighty yards is quite enough.
Can't stretch postage stamps.
But, find room, somehow,
For upper-crust constructions,
That students can't use.
To seem not a pig,
Stash the glazed and jelly-filled.
Wipe crumbs from your mouth.

(WMC-TV) - Hundreds of family members and friends filled First Baptist Church on Broad Avenue Saturday to remember a Tennessee trailblazer, humanitarian, and civil rights activist.
City leaders say Tenn. Representative Lois DeBerry was unquestionably a "woman of the people" who never lost the common touch. At age 68, DeBerry will be remembered as an advocate for the less fortunate.
Tennessee Speaker of the House Beth Harwell was often on different ends of the political spectrum; however, Harwell praises DeBerry's commitment to the people.
"At times when I knew she was tired and knew she was in pain, she was at the capital working with a smile on her face," stated Harwell.
The longtime lawmaker had been battling pancreatic cancer for nearly five years before she died last Sunday.
Harwell continued, "She taught us how to live and she taught us how to die...what a legacy Tennessee has lost, a political icon."
"She taught us how to live and she taught us how to die...what a legacy Tennessee has lost, a political icon."
Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam stated he will miss DeBerry's intelligence, conviction, and perseverance.
"Coming in as a new governor, Lois quickly became one of my favorite people on Capitol Hill because of her wit, charm, and dedication to her constituents. Lois was a history maker, a wonderful woman, a great legislator, and a true friend. I will miss her," said Haslam.
A Memphis native, DeBerry graduated from Hamilton High School and LeMoyne-Owen College. She was the first African-American female elected to the State Legislature from Memphis and Shelby County in 1972.
She was also the first female speaker pro tempore of the house and the only African-American to serve in that capacity to date.
U.S. Senator Bob Corker says her legacy will be remembered in Memphis and across the state for generations to come.
"I appreciate her many years of public service and her friendship and kindness. My heart goes out to her family during this difficult time," he said.
Many people gave emotional speeches about DeBerry's life and work during the legacy service Saturday, including Haslam, Memphis mayor A C Wharton, and former vice president Al Gore.
Characterizing her as "Lady D", he said DeBerry will always be remembered for her character, and commitment, and determination.
"The essence of Lois I would like to speak about is her character ... her joy ... her dedication ... her constant determination and her commitment to make her city, her country, her world a better place," said Gore.
Former colleagues said during DeBerry's battle of cancer, she still came to work with a smile.
Lois DeBerry leaves behind a husband and son.

It's getting harder and harder to make a case on behalf of Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Raheem Morris. Tampa Bay lost their ninth consecutive game on Saturday, a 48-16 laugher against the Carolina Panthers. The outcome guarantees Tampa Bay last place in the NFC South.
Rookie sensation Cam Newton continued his impressive, record-breaking rookie season. In the first quarter, the Panthers' quarterback topped Peyton Manning's single-season record for passing yards by a rookie. Newton finished the game 12-for-17 with 171 yards and three touchdowns. The highlight was a franchise-record 91-yard touchdown to Brandon LaFell in the second quarter. Newton also added to his record for rookie rushing touchdowns, picking up his 14th of the season.
Tampa Bay allowed an opponent to score more than 40 points for the second time in their last three games. They managed just 59 rushing yards for the day. Quarterback Josh Freeman passed for 274 yards, but threw just one touchdown.
The Buccaneers drop to 4-10. They wrap up a disappointing season next week against the Atlanta Falcons.
Carolina moves to 6-9 for the season, and concludes its year next week at New Orleans.

Park Update: 23rd Street Lawn Temporarily Closed
The 23rd Street Lawn is a favorite new gathering space on the High Line, offering open green space for picnicking, sunbathing, and people-watching. Rejuvenation plays a major role in sustaining the Lawn. To this end, the Lawn will be temporarily closed at times throughout the busy season to allow the grass to recover after periods of heavy rain and foot traffic. The Lawn will be temporarily closed and it will reopen as soon as possible. This will help keep the Lawn a welcoming green space all season long.
Please follow us on Twitter or check back for future updates on park operations.

Pets on Furniture!
February 16, 2011 at 12:29 pm , by Beth Roehrig
Desire to Inspire's weekly Monday post Pets on Furniture makes me happy. How could it not? It combines two of my favorite things (for the record, whee! animals! and sneak peeks inside people's homes). This design blog is worth visiting for more than just adorable animals; the rest of the time they focus on gorgeous photos of homes that are full of inspiring ideas. Desire to Inspire even has a "meet-cute" story: It's run by two friends from opposite sides of the world—Kim, from Ottowa, Canada, and Jo, from Australia—who met and bonded on Flickr over their shared design sense. But, back to pets: Read more

Essentially, they do the research so you don't have to. (Thanks, guys!) I had the editors do this special roundup just for LHJ to go along with our March story, Conquer Kitchen Clutter. Be sure to check out their House Call features and other daily posts for even more inspiration.
10 Easy Pieces: Remodelista's Favorites for Containing Clutter in the Kitchen
No matter what size your kitchen, clutter can take over. We all like to keep our key ingredients, oft-used kitchen tools, and cleaning essentials within reach. Here are some of our preferred tools for containing—and beautifying—countertop clutter. Our criteria is that they look good and function even better; they should stand the test of time in wear and in design.

Pet-Proof Plant Hanging Ideas
January 20, 2011 at 2:51 pm , by Beth Roehrig
I never had much of a green thumb to begin with, but my cute (and curious) cat has ruined my already checkered track record with houseplants. She's a serious menace to anything growing—a pretty flowering plant, my windowsill herb garden—none of them stood a chance. After finding chewed up leaves on my living room floor one too many times, I decided it was best for both of us to pet-proof in the future. Determined to avoid covering my plants in tin foil, I dug up a few interesting—and attractive—ways to hang them.
I'm loving these air plants, also knows as tillandsias, suspended in delicate glass planters from West Elm. They need a little bit of water a few times a week and plenty of sun, but they're pretty low-maintenance. I'm thinking of hanging a cluster of these in my kitchen window, far out of the cat's reach. Many garden centers sell tillandsias, or you can look for them online, at sites like Rainforest Flora and airplant.com. Most cost around a few dollars each.

Guest Blog: Emily Henderson's Collecting Tips
January 5, 2011 at 10:20 am , by Beth Roehrig
Emily, the winner of last year's season of HGTV's Design Star, will host a brand new show, Secrets from a Stylist, starting in March (Update: Just got word it debuts February 26th at 9 p.m.). On it she'll give home makeovers and help demystify the design process. (Can't wait? Until then, follow her on her blog.) I love Emily's bohemian style, and a big part of that look involves collecting vintage and antique items. She decided to share her secrets for curating great collections.
I love a good collection of pretty things. Truly, I do. But how easily it can go terribly, terribly wrong. Like nightmare-inducingly wrong.
We collect for sentimental reasons. My first collection was thimbles that I picked up everywhere I went. I sewed, sure, but I didn't actually use them on my fingers while I sewed. I collected them because first of all, it was a fun project, and second, a mini-documentation of places I have been. Then I started with dried flowers—all different types, like mini sculptures. Now I collect pottery, watercolors, weird portraits and vintage fabric. So I get the need, desire, and drive to collect. But to help myself and others rein it in, I've developed 5 simple rules to follow. I hate rules, but sometimes even I need 'em. Here goes.
1. Don't collect the world. What I mean is pick a few things to collect (unless you do it for a living) and make those collections amazing. Your house still needs to be functional so you can't collect EVERYTHING. Sorry.
2. Give it focus. Once you've chosen your collection (or it's chosen you) work on making it the most unique collection. With my collection of footed white pottery, I don't buy every one I see just to add to the collection. Nope. I only buy what is rare, handmade, super old, extra beautiful, etc. I don't buy new vases from the big box stores. In other words, it has to be something that is worthy of the collection and will enhance it. Read more

Great Gift Wrap Organizers
December 16, 2010 at 2:13 pm , by Beth Roehrig
I don't know about you, but between Christmas and birthdays, I've been doing a whole lotta wrapping lately. Right now I have a drawer stuffed full of tissue paper and spools of ribbon, and loose rolls of paper that are smushed into my closet. While I would LOVE to have an entire room devoted to crafting and wrapping a la Martha Stewart (she's even introducing a furniture line based on her own craft room next month at Home Decorators Collection), that's just not in the cards for me.
But for those of us without that kind of space to dedicate, there are other smart ways to keep your supplies organized. Read more

Guest Blogger: A Green & Gold Christmas
December 1, 2010 at 7:00 am , by Beth Roehrig
Nicole Balch of Making it Lovely is one of my favorite bloggers for her impeccable taste and always-inspiring design boards. While many of us use the same mix of heirloom ornaments on the Christmas tree year after year, it can be really chic to stick to a particular color scheme or theme. Check out Nicole's "dream" tree below, and tell us about your tree decorating plans in the comments.
Nicole from Making it Lovely here. My blog follows my home decorating projects, and normally I like to go all out with my Christmas tree decorations. This year though, I have a very curious one and a half year old, so my tree trimmings will have to be of the unbreakable variety.
I started daydreaming about a green and gold bedecked tree, so I put together a design board for it. It may not be feasible for me right now, but hopefully some elements can make their way into your homes instead!

Product Number: 002-142-0328
"Tsuishu" [swee-shu"). Not a common word for most people and, when most people first hear it pronounced, their usual gut reaction is to either say "Bless you!" or "Thanks, stilettos are hell on my arches, but damned if they don't make my calves look great!". Tsuishu is a material that is painfully labor intensive to create. So much so that has all but become a lost art. Lacquer is bonded strip by tiny strip and eventually sawed in cross sections. Satou-san is one of the very few carvers to use this rare material as adornment, but would you find it totally unexpected from a master who eschews carnuba wax in favor of an exotic resin, in order to ensure that your new pipe will continue to look polished for a lifetime?
This Satou bent Dublin features tsuishu, as well as a shape which speaks of a fascinating Nihon/futurist fusion. While we have seen this form from Satou-san before, our encounters with it could probably be counted on one hand, and still have at least three fingers to spare. While the grain on the front of the bowl is vertical and tight, in keeping with the composition's sense of implied velocity, the grain near the rear of the bowl and entirety of the shank appears to be almost windswept. Satou never ceases to amaze.

Burton Snowboards And The Remarkables Share Celebrations For The Grand Opening Of The Stash In Late July (07-Jul-08)
The Remarkables, New Zealand, July 7, 2008 - Burton Snowboards and The Remarkables Resort today announced
Burton Snowboards and The Remarkables Resort today announced that they will celebrate the opening of The Stash on Saturday, July 26 at The Remarkables Resort on the South Island of New Zealand. The Remarkables is one of only three winter resorts in the world to open The Stash, which was originally created by Jake Burton and Burton team riders as an evolution of freestyle terrain in the ultimate natural environment.
International and New Zealand Burton team riders and top New Zealand band Rhombus will be on hand to celebrate the grand opening of the first Stash in the Southern Hemisphere. On Saturday, July 26, visitors to The Remarkables will be treated to some spectacular riding as The Stash grand opening kicks off with a Burton rider demonstration at 10:00 a.m. At noon, a ribbon cutting ceremony at The Stash entrance will officially declare the run open to the riding public. Rhombus will provide the soundtrack for the celebration at 2:00 p.m. at the resort's main base building.
"The grand opening of The Stash in New Zealand will be a groundbreaking session, giving the public and our Burton team riders a chance to ride this new style of The Stash that uses rock features unique to The Remarkables' natural terrain," says Jeff Boliba, Global Resort Director for Burton Snowboards.
Located in the bowls of Serpentine and the Galleries trails, The Stash is created for intermediate and advanced riders. The kilometer-long Stash run provides riders with an organic, big mountain terrain park that follows the natural lines of the mountain. Riders will discover rock-wall rides, log jibs, cliff drops, a stone hut and other one-of-a-kind obstacles hidden away in The Stash run. An all-natural environment, The Stash uses no metal or plastics to create obstacles, only stone, wood, trees, dirt and rocks. Even the signs that direct riders to The Stash are hand-carved out of stone and wood and are designed to be jibbed.
The Stash can also be found in Avoriaz, France and Northstar-at-Tahoe, USA. For more information, visit www.thestash.com.

You've said that several times before big guy. Now nobody trusts you. And you've got Neil -- who should be a global mod a year ago -- actually creating another forum, he's so anxious to go. And he reflects everyone.
I think you've got about one week and then we will begin working on the replacement without you. You should strongly consider being on the team instead of leading it from behind. Think about it won't you?
Because why do you want to continue running the board? It took you over 24 hours to respond to this thread which called you out, by name. Your absenteeism is hurting this community.

THE Hilltop Community Meal hangs in the balance after the volunteer head chef left suddenly last week.
Organisers of the lunch, which provides a free meal and hospitality for more than 70 people in need, are desperate to find a replacement cook to ensure the weekly lunch can continue.
Organisers say they are determined to recruit someone as soon as possible.
Co-ordinator Deborah Gates said they weren't searching for an experienced chef - just someone with cooking skills who was willing to help.
"This is ultimately a community-run program for the community so we're just looking for good cooks who can cook for a large volume of people," she said.
"We cook healthy meals and the role will involve organising and developing menus and preparing food.
"People can do as little or as much as they like and it's a very well-supported role with lots of kitchen hands helping out."
Ultimately organisers hope to find several volunteers who can be rostered on a rotating basis.
"We don't want to be left in this position again," Ms Gates said.
"I don't have the cooking skills to help this Wednesday coming so it'll be a cold lunch with something that doesn't require cooking."
Despite the hurdle, Ms Gates has every confidence the vital program, run every Wednesday at the Gravel Hill Salvation Army cafe, would continue to thrive.
The joint initiative between the Salvation Army and Bendigo Baptist and Connect churches is only in its third month but numbers have more than tripled since week one.
"This is an important program that meets the practical need of food, but also connects people with others to alleviate isolation and build relationships," she said.
"It's all well and good to start something like this and pull out but we're determined to keep going even when the going gets tough."
To volunteer call Deborah Gates on 0409 142 777.

Former New Orleans Saints defensive back Steve Gleason made an appearance on the stage at Radio City Music Hall on Friday night. He was there to announce his former team's third-round pick, offensive tackle Terron Armstead.
Gleason took the stage to a staggering round of applause.
The former safety and special teams standout is best remembered for his blocked punt against the Falcons in 2006. It was the team's first home game for the team following Hurricane Katrina, and the moment became a symbol of the city's resiliency and rejuvenation.
Gleason told the public that he had ALS in 2011. Since then he has been a public advocate working to raise awareness of the disease.

The Caddo Parish School Board is talking about the next step in finding a new superintendent this afternoon.
Classes started for the new school year last week with Caddo Parish School's Chief of Staff Mary Nash Robinson in place as interim superintendent, after the school board came to a impasse in a series of votes that split between the two finalist candidates, Robinson and John Dilworth.
On Monday, Dilworth confirmed he will not be reapplying for the position.
On August 6, the CPSB voted to re-start the search and set a goal of having a superintendent in place within 90 days.
The board has already spent $30,000 on an outside agency to conduct the search that concluded the first week of August with no superintendent selection. The company has said they could do the search over again at no additional cost, although the Caddo Parish School Board would still have to pay for advertising expenses in connection with a new search.
The school board is also considering whether to go back to the list of all the qualified candidates gathered by McPherson and Jacobson and do the eliminations themselves, and whether to cast a broader net.
All options appear to be on the table, however, including not reopening the search after all.
Some board members have expressed frustration with the lack of local applicants, and are discussing what can be done to attract higher quality applicants.
You can watch the Caddo Parish School Board meeting streaming live here, and KSLA News 12's Emily Black with have live updates on KSLA News 12 at 5 and 6.

Border fences poor substitutes for immigration reform
Illegal immigration a product of ineffective government policies
Illegal immigration a product of ineffective government policies
As the federal government scrambles to put up a costly border fence along the Mexico-US border, Libertarian Party spokesperson Andrew Davis is already calling it a "poor substitute for real immigration reform."
"Illegal immigration is a huge problem in the United States that will only worsen if we continue to play games instead of getting serious about real reform," says Davis. "Border fences are expensive distractions, paid for by taxpayers, from addressing the causes of illegal immigration."
Davis says government is to blame for the flood of illegal immigrants into the country, by maintaining a complex immigration process and taxpayer subsidized benefits for illegal immigrants, which both create incentives to immigrate illegally.
"Building a fence won't fix these problems that are at the heart of why people come to this country illegally," says Davis.
Patrick Dixon, chairman of the Libertarian Party of Texas, says that "people are breaking the law and entering illegally because it is easier to swim the Rio Grande than to climb the mountain of paperwork."
"The solution to defending our border and sovereignty must make it easier for peaceful people to enter the country legally," says Dixon.
The Libertarian Party also says that border fences violate property rights of owners who are forced to surrender land to make way for the fences.
"We understand that we must have a secure border and keep out those who present a threat to national health or security," says Davis, "but a border fence is not immigration reform."
By eliminating social programs paid for by taxpayers that go to illegal immigrants and making the immigration process easier for those coming to the country legally, the Libertarian Party believes it will dramatically reduce illegal immigration.
"Immigration policy should be a realistic reflection of our society," says Davis. "Too much regulation hurts our economy by limiting the pool of cheap labor and creates incentives to enter the country illegally. Too little leaves the United States open to harm. Immigration reform should balance the needs of our economy with the need for domestic security. A border fence does not fully address this need."
The Libertarian Party is America's third largest political party, founded in 1971 as an alternative to the two main political parties. You can find more information on the Libertarian Party by visiting www.LP.org. The Libertarian Party proudly stands for smaller government, lower taxes and more freedom.
For more information on this issue, or to arrange a media interview, please call Andrew Davis at (202) 731-0002. Patrick Dixon can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or at (512) 771-3936.

We know that the media shapes how millions of people understand the world that surrounds them and understand the nature of social relations. In recent years, women's rights advocates have worked increasingly to insert a human rights agenda into the images and narratives that we see in the newspapers, on the radio, on TV, and more. But for some organizations, these efforts have taken on a new and exciting form.
One recent AWID event showcased a few examples of this sort of innovation. Take Breakthrough, for instance. An organization based in both the US and India, they have been at the cutting edge of using pop culture to change the way a society thinks about women's rights. In 2001, they produced a music video that became wildly popular in India and that promoted a message of women's empowerment. More recently, their video game ICED portrayed the experiences of undocumented immigrants in the US and allowed users to virtually experience their day-to-day lives.
In Nicaragua, the soap opera Sexto Sentido, a project of the organization Puntos de Encuentro has captured the attention of a huge national audience. The program has taken the risk of portraying a range of socially taboo issues—like abortion, transgender identity, and sexual abuse—in a country where the hierarchy of the Catholic Church and other conservative forces hold significant sway.
These projects infiltrate spaces where human rights may be unfamiliar and transmit their message to new audiences. These kinds of media interventions change the way that millions of people think about and talk about issues related to women's human rights.
