Running nowadays has evolved from one of the cheapest sport to an expensive one. Technology has changed the way people run. Advanced features not only come from shoes but from apparel and other gear as well.
Many prefer to run with computers. Wrist top computer brands like Suunto, Polar, Garmin and Timex provide runners data during the run. Some have footpods to measure distance, speed or cadence. Many utilize GPS technology to provide distance, speed and geographical location data. All computers have Heart rate monitors. Used to determinine our heart rate during specific levels of activity, the heart rate monitor is one of several measures to determine overall fitness.
Do you know how to use your Heart rate monitor (HRM)?
HRM training uses training zones to determine your level of exertion during an activity. Zone 1 and 2 are used for cardio, aerobic or weight loss program. Zone 3 and 4 are used during an anaerobic program while Zone 5 is used when sprinting or all-out effort.
Before using your heart rate monitor, first determine your Resting Heart rate (RHR), Maximum Heart rate (MHR) and your training zones.
1. MHR is determined by subtracting your current age with 220. (220 - Age)
2. RHR is determined by taking your heart rate after waking up in the morning before doing any activity for 3 consecutive days. The average of the 3 results is your RHR.
3. Training Zones are determined by the following:
Zone 1: [(MHR-RHR) x (60-70%)] + RHR
Zone 2: [(MHR-RHR) x (71-75%)] + RHR
Zone 3: [(MHR-RHR) x (76-80%)] + RHR
Zone 4: [(MHR-RHR) x (81-90%)] + RHR
Zone 5: [(MHR-RHR) x (91-100%)] + RHR
Reel Runner
RHR: 43 bpm
MHR: 189 bpm
Zone 1: 131 – 145 bpm
Zone 2: 146 – 153 bpm
Zone 3: 154 – 160 bpm
Zone 4: 161 – 174 bpm
Zone 5: 175 – 189 bpm
When do I use my Heart Rate Monitor?
Although they are not 100% reliable, HRM should be used during training and may be used during a race. Factors like stress, dehydration, lack of sleep and caffeine intake can cause subtle changes to your heart rate and training zones. It is best to combine HRM training with a Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) or Borg Scale to improve reliabilty. These two combined can determine an athletes' capabilities and limits during training and in a race.
RPE Scale
0 – Complete Rest
1 – Very Weak
2 – Weak
3 – Moderate
4 – Somewhat Strong
5 – Strong
6 –
7 – Very Strong
8 –
9 – Extremely Strong
10 – Exhaustion
Am I ready to use my heart rate monitor and follow my training zones?
Training for a race means following a specific and individual program. Running a full or half marathon, finishing an Ironman or Xterra race and competing in a cycling race needs patience, determination and persistence. Without a program, your training could lead to overtraining or, worse, injuries. A training program would consist of easy days, interval or tempo or hard days and time trials. Your training zones will tell you how much effort to exert during any of these days. Easy days means training at Zone 1 or 2 for an hour or more while Intervals or tempo training will be in the Zone 3 or 4 range. Sprints or "All out" efforts are usually in Zone 5 with durations of only a few seconds to a minute or two. During a 42K or 21K race, your HRM zones will help you follow a negative split strategy by running the first half at Zone 2 and completing the 2nd half with bouts of Zone 3 or 4 effort. Incorporating HRM readings to your training will help you follow your program and get to the finish line stronger and faster.
See you on the road.

Thought I'd take a shot at where we'll end up points wise.. so here's my take:
Games we SHOULD win: FCD at home, Tor at home, Chiv Away, Col Home, Chiv away -> 15 pts
Games we might win, probably draw: RSL at home, LA at home, Seattle at home, RSL at home -> 4 pts
Games we probably lose: Seattle away, RSL away -> 0 pts
My guess is we drop a game we shouldn't and end up at 51 pts. I'd guess that puts is in playoffs in 4th position +/- 1.
Mostly it reinforces to me the need to win the 5 games we SHOULD win including 2 away at Chivas. Because the others are all tough games.
Obviously YMMV... I'm interesting in others views of this so respond with yours please.

This means if I am still a 9-5 worker in Aug.2014 and can take 5 Fridays as personal leave of absence. I would have worked only 15 days in that month but get paid for full month... hmm some reason to mark my calendar!

BAER (Brain Stem Auditory Evoked Response) Testing is used to evaluate the function of the auditory nerve, cochlea and hearing pathways in brain. It is routinely performed in place of a behavioral hearing test on those who are unable to cooperate with a standard hearing test (for example: infants, those with developmental delays, etc.), bit it can still be used to detect hearing loss.
BAER is not painful although in certain situations a patient may need to be sedated, which usually involves the placement of an I.V. First, electrodes are placed on the person's forehead, scalp and earlobes and small headphones are put inside of each ear. The electrodes measure brain waves. After all equipment is in place a series of clicks, hisses, and other sounds are played. The brain's response to these sounds is recorded and used to determine the patient's level of hearing.
BAER is commonly performed on newborn infants to screen their hearing and is often used in conjunction with OAE (oto-accoustic emissions) testing. BAER is also sometimes called ABR (Auditory Brain Stem Response) testing. If the patient does not pass BAER testing it does not necessarily mean he is deaf or thta he has permanent hearing loss, further testing is needed. Common reasons for not passing BAER include: fluid inside the middle ear space or a blocked ear canal. Likewise, even one does pass BAER testing he can still develop hearing problems later in life.

The first maps that were made by cartographers who sailed to Thras and lived to tell the tale show a group of sixteen islands, in a semicircle like a partially submerged coral atoll. Over the centuries other maps have been charted by spies and the number and size of the islands has varied, suggesting that the amphibious Sload have a volatile kingdom which fluctuates in land mass, either by the tides or some other, less natural means. The map above shows it as a small chain centered between Summerset, Yokuda, and Hammerfell. The largest of the islands, Agonio, seems the most stable, though later maps show it considerably larger than earlier maps.
They are buoyant creatures may move about with relative quickness and grace through an intricate network of coral formations and ancient shipwrecks.
The reach of Thras has been felt far beyond its own land. The Thrassian Plague which decimated Tamriel's population in the year 2260 of the First Era was their most outrageous attack against the mainland. When the Redguards came to Tamriel in 1E 808, they brought with them a tradition of burying their criminals on islands off their shore, to prevent their evil spirits from disturbing the living. The Sload took advantage of these graveyards of the coast, finding them suitable laboratories for their necromancy. The Redguards pushed back against the invaders, but reports of Sload living off the coast near settled lands from Stros M'kai to Abibon-Gora have surfaced well into the Third Era.
Recently the Sload have been quiet. Their hero, the King of Worms, Mannimarco, has likewise ceased to trouble Tamriel.

EVOLUTION; From the Brink of Death to Life Overflowing
By JULIE SALAMON
Published: March 30, 2005
''I'D be careful how you use that word 'museum,''' warned Roberta Brandes Gratz, founder of the Eldridge Street Project, housed in an 118-year-old synagogue at the nexus of Chinatown and the Lower East Side in Manhattan.
''It's a little bit of a delicate point,'' agreed Amy Waterman, executive director, in a separate interview. ''Some of our board members would say, 'Don't call it a museum. It sounds like it's over, like it has ossified.'''
Her own feelings about that word? ''To me, 'museum' means my favorite places,'' she said, confessing further: ''We are a member of the American Association of Museums.''
Definitions can be problematic. Especially in a multitasking institution like this, which is also known as the Eldridge Street Synagogue (and remains a working house of worship) as well as a National Historic Landmark, a performance space and -- indisputably -- a museum. The Eldridge Street Project still carries its amorphous name partly because such distinctions are not academic for an organization that still needs $4 million to complete a $12 million renovation that has been going on for almost 20 years. In 2000, the City Council sidestepped the church-state divide to provide $1 million to help rehabilitate the physical plant by emphasizing that only one of Eldridge Street's hats is a skullcap.
For many of its Jewish visitors, the building's timeworn artifacts and faded, but still evocative, grandeur offer a perfect setting to channel ghosts from the past of the Lower East Side. ''I just got goose bumps when I first walked in 20 years ago,'' said Ms. Gratz, an author and a member of the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission.
When the synagogue was built, in 1887, it stood at the center of Eastern European Jewish immigration to the United States. There was a synagogue on almost every block, many in converted churches and tiny storefronts. Even then the Eldridge Street Synagogue tried to fulfill more than one kind of yearning. With its 70-foot ceilings, a velvet-lined ark grand enough to store 24 Torah scrolls, trompe l'oeil mural and marvelous stained-glass windows and sky lights, this grand (and grandiose) place of worship aimed to signal the promise of prosperity associated with German, or uptown, Jews.
The neighborhood remains dominated by immigrants, but they are mainly Chinese. So, for the last five years, on the first Sunday in June, the Eldridge Street Project sponsors an ''Egg Rolls and Egg Creams Block Party.'' Torah scribes and Chinese calligraphers compare techniques, via translators, and Jewish and Chinese mah-jongg players offer instruction. Entertainment can include a Peking opera troupe and a klezmer band.
''People in the neighborhood look at it as a place to go to for cultural events,'' said Ken Lo, director of the China Arts Council. Mr. Lo, 52, who grew up on the Lower East Side, is old enough to remember when a Jewish presence was evident on the streets, not just in institutions like the Lower East Side Tenement Museum and the Eldridge Street Project. ''If there weren't any of these events at the synagogue, it would just be this strange building they don't know anything about.''
This institution-in-progress has also become a perpetual construction site. An elevator is scheduled to be installed this summer, but most of the 65 stained-glass windows are still in crates inside, waiting to be cleaned and restored. In February, scaffolding went up in the upper balcony of the main sanctuary, where women used to sit for services, back in the days when 800 families belonged to the synagogue (compared with the two dozen or so stalwart worshippers who come regularly today). The scaffolding will protect the synagogue's antique wooden benches while allowing workers to climb to hard-to-reach spaces up in the domes, and to remove peeling paint throughout the arches and coffers and prepare the surfaces for historically accurate paint finishes.
In this evolving museum, the renovation itself is part of the process of educating, preserving and memorializing. The project acquired a lot next door for a staging area for construction, only to uncover an archaeological find: a mikvah, a ritual bathing pool for Orthodox women, and two other baths. They have been covered up again, so workers can park construction equipment and a trailer on the lot. But, Ms. Waterman, ever ambitious for the project, revealed more plans for the future. ''We fantasize about a mikvah-cafe arrangement,'' she said, ''like the Roman baths in Bath, England.''
Meanwhile, the Eldridge Street Project offers a guided tour called ''From Bottom to Top,'' which allows visitors to witness historical reclamation and contemporary refitting as it happens. The tour begins in the spiritual glory of the sanctuary and continues into the subcellar, dug 15 to 20 feet below the original basement with hand shovels to protect the fragile structure. On a recent private tour, Ms. Waterman pointed out the glories of the subcellar: a brand-new heating system, kitchen, restrooms and a water fountain.
''Here's what makes us a museum,'' she said. ''We have a water fountain.''

A neighbor of mine has a Super A that has been sitting all winter in an unheated shed. He is uncertian if the cooling system was full of water or anti freeze. When he refilled the radiator water leaked at fairly high rate from the clutch inspection hole. I assumed this was due to a freeze cracked block. Am I missing something?
Is a Super A prone to freeze cracking at the rear of the engine in the bell housing area or is there a freeze plug similar to an automotive engine that has failed?

I would be interested as well! I would just want my lows done with the best quality projectors possible and keep my highs stock. Ive been debating on even maybe mini projectors in the fogs, curious if that is even possible due to shape???
The projectors in the fogs would be an interesting mod. Definitely would not fit easily. You'd most likely have to cut off the back of the housing and allow the projector housing to sit a little further back. In addition I'm fairly certain even the smallest projectors TRS offers are larger than the opening for your fog light meaning they have to be installed from inside the bumper if even possible on those. Take some measurements of your fog light (height, width, depth) and let me know if theres room to install the fog lights from inside the bumper. I'll do some digging myself as well

The kit you are buying for $120 only includes the projectors. No bulb, no ballasts, no wiring kit. The complete kit would cost $270 before any discounts or group buy codes. Are you just offering the projector and leaving it up to the end user to buy an HID kit to fill the projector?

Hey guys, sorry for not responding for like... ever. I was relocated for work for the last few months, had a very unexpected major expense come my way, and to top it off someone backed into my truck. Its mostly fixed up now but needless to say I haven't had the cash flow nor time to start this whole projector retrofitting idea. As it stand I most likely won't be starting it any time soon, if I do though I will repost. I apologize to everyone who was interested in getting their lights done and for the major delay in response.

Is bottled water really better than tap?
(1/4) > >>
Is bottled water really better than tap?
By Megan Rauscher
Bottled water is not necessarily healthier or safer than tap water, Tampa, Florida-based sports nutritionist Cynthia Sass told the American College of Sports Medicine 11th annual Health & Fitness Summit in Dallas.
Twenty-five percent of all bottled water is actually repackaged tap water, according to Sass.
"Bottled water doesn't deserve the nutritional halo that most people give it for being pure," she says. "If you're not an exclusive bottled water drinker, you may find it worthwhile to check into filtering your tap water to save money."
In a recent Gallop survey, most consumers said they drink bottled water because they perceive it to be purer than tap water. Taste and convenience are also factors.
Because bottled water is considered a food, it is regulated by the US Food and Drug Administration. Tap water is regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Both types of water are subject to testing for contaminates.
But Sass points out that an estimated 60 to 70 percent of all bottled water in the U.S. is packaged and sold within the same state, which exempts it from FDA regulation. And 1 in 5 states do not regulate that bottled water.
Moreover, tests on 1,000 bottles of 103 different brands of bottled water found man-made chemicals, bacteria and arsenic in 22 percent of the bottles.
Tap water is also not immune to contamination problems. While most cities meet the standards for tap water, some tap water in the 19 U.S. cities tested was found to contain arsenic, lead, and pesticides, Sass told the conference.
While most healthy adults can tolerate exposure to trace amounts of these contaminates, some people, such as cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, individuals who are HIV positive or recovering from a transplant or major surgery, pregnant women, children, and the elderly, are more vulnerable.
For these individuals, Sass favors bottled water treated with reverse osmosis, distilled water or city tap water with a filtering system certified by the National Sanitation Foundation.
As for the fitness water craze, skip it, Sass says, noting that fitness and specialty waters with not give an athlete an advantage or edge. In fact, vitamin-fortified waters may pose a risk for over-supplementation.
"Think of your one-a-day vitamin," says Sass. "Some of these waters are multi-vitamins in a bottle, so read the label and compare with the rest of your daily intake, including food," she advises.
karen anderson:
It tastes better.
Boid Fink:
I have a BRITA filter on my faucet, and I pour the water from that into my BRITA water pitcher that filters the junk into even more pure water.
Then I drink a beer, and grill some marinated steaks.
I am gonna die one day, but hopefully never from bad water!

Zephyrhills is awesome, but you can't get it in Atlanta.:-[
Actually on the taste thing they used to do a water taste-off annually to disprove this theory and each year NYC tap water won best taste.
There are areas with really hard water where you may have a taste difference but for most of the bottled waters what makes them taste better is that they are cold when you drink them. I just put a pitcher of tap in the fridge and viola, great tasting water.

I can't stand the taste of water from plastic bottles you can taste the plastic. I prefer the water from my fridge that goes thru three filters that I have inline between the fridge and supply.

BEIRUT: The Hezbollah-led March 8 parties' reaction to an assassination attempt that targeted Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea was largely muted or outright skeptical Thursday.
Hezbollah and its Christian ally, MP Michel Aoun's Free Patriotic Movement, kept mum on the incident that has jolted the political landscape, heightening fears of a new wave of political assassinations that targeted mainly March 14 politicians following the 2005 killing of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
Geagea said Wednesday he had escaped an assassination attempt when a sniper fired at his residence in Maarab in Kesrouan, warning that the political assassinations of the last decade had not ended. Geagea said the attempt involved a high level of expertise, claiming the shots had been fired at least 1 kilometer from the target site.
He said he was convinced that "those behind this operation wanted it to be a definitive message," without specifically accusing anyone.
Speaker Nabih Berri, a leading figure in the March 8 bloc, spoke with Geagea by telephone Thursday to congratulate him on escaping the attempt on his life.
But Baalbek-Hermel MP Nawar Saheli, from Hezbollah's parliamentary bloc, declined to comment on the incident. Asked whether Geagea's hint that a political party might have been involved in the attempt was a reference to Hezbollah, Saheli told The Daily Star: "No comment."
A group of pro-Syrian parties, in which both Amal and Hezbollah are members, issued a statement in which they said Geagea was searching for public support in the run-up to next year's scheduled round of parliamentary polls.
The parties added that Geagea was experiencing growing political isolation, because of the return of the Maronite patriarchate to "its unifying, patriotic role," a reference to the recent chilliness in relations between the Lebanese Forces leader and Bkirki.
Geagea has taken issue with statements by Patriarch Beshara Rai on the crisis in Syria, for being insufficiently tough on the regime in Damascus.
Zahrani MP Michel Musa, a member of Berri's parliamentary Development and Liberation bloc, condemned the attempt on Geagea's life. In an interview with the Voice of Lebanon radio station, Musa stressed "the need for speeding up investigations [into the incident] and punishing those behind the attempt."
He expressed his belief that no one had the intention of creating tensions in the country or seeing a deterioration in the security situation.
Aoun, an arch political foe of Geagea, has not yet commented on the assassination attempt against the Lebanese Forces leader.
But Jbeil MP Abbas Hashem, a member of Aoun's parliamentary Change and Reform bloc, scoffed at Geagea's claim that someone wanted to kill him.
"Only Geagea and his comrades experienced this assassination attempt which, if it is true, does not amount to an attempt to frighten him," Hashem told Elnashra website.
He accused Geagea of using the incident to regain his role in Christian areas following recent criticism of him by the Maronite patriarch.
Responding to Geagea's fears of a return to a period of political assassination, Hashem said: "When political attempts become useless, the issue of 'security' arises. But what happened with Geagea does not fall into this category. [The incident] was not a security breach, or even an attempt to frighten him."
Former Minister Mario Aoun, an FPM official, said his party's failure to condemn the attempt on Geagea's life should not be overplayed. He told local television station MTV that the FPM was waiting to learn the truth of what happened.
"I am against targeting any political figure, irrespective of his tendencies, and I'm against any violent reactions," Aoun said.

McDowell also indicated he wouldn't be surprised if the MINI Roadster came to own the entry-level roadster segment that Mazda currently has locked-down with the Miata.
- McDowell won't be surprised if the Countryman is the most fuel efficient crossover offered in the U.S.
- It is likely that MINI's All4 AWD system will show up in other models in addition to the Countryman.
- The recent engine updates made on European models will arrive for the 2011 model year cars in North America.
- Future MINI engines will likely get smaller and new drivetrain technology, such as a dual-clutch transmission, is likely to be added.

Is our offensive line set for success? That question can be debated. Brandon Keith was moved to RT to protect the blindside of Matt Leinart since he was a left handed quarterback and our projected starter. He is the best of our tackles at moving his feet . Levi Brown was moved to LT because that was his more natural position, playing there in college, and because he would be less of a liability in the pass game. But going up against speedy ends won't fair well for
Leonard Davis Levi Brown. He is too slow on the edge. With no more left handed QBs on the roster would we be better served moving Keith and Brown back to the other sides, or will we live and die with this decision? At this point does it really matter?

With the current logjam of NBA teams and affiliates, brought on by the 1 to 1 relationships that have been formed, it seems like discussions about the addition of more D League teams will start to pick up. Having more teams and a 1 to 1 affiliate for the Hawks would allow us to really develop young players without having to send them overseas. We could then keep a close eye on them and monitor not only their on court development, but also their physical and emotional development as they become pros.
As far as where to expand, if you look at this map of current affiliates, it is apparent that there is a glaring hole in the southeast. Several teams could be added in this region, as well as in other parts of the country to create a true minor league system with 1 to 1 affiliates.
If there was a Hawks D League team that played in the Gwinnett Arena I feel that it would draw pretty good crowds and would be very close to the current Hawks facility. This would also make it easy for fans of the parent club to keep an eye on the potential next crop of stars (or role players, whatever).
I don't know what the economics behind this type of massive undertaking would be, but I'm sure Adam Silver can figure it out. What do you guys think about D League expansion?

To all the contributors to this site, I want to extend my most hearfelt thanks and appreciation and wish each and everyone of you all the best for the Holiday Season.
I am having a bit of trouble with my home internet at the moment and have next week off work, so I may not be on here much before the New Year, so I hope you all have a great Christmas with your familes and a SAFE New Year (please use that Ken Harvey taxi thing instead if you are thinking of drink driving)
As for the Thankyou part I can not emphasise enough how much this site means to me as a Redskins fan, I have followed this team for so long now and had no one to talk football with, much less discuss Redskins topics with in all that time. All the other sites of this nature on the internet do not interest me as they just descend into petty name calling, with people pretending to be lawyers, or friends of Agents or Friends of Players and stuff when they are losing an argument and it just becomes depressing and tragic to read.
On this site we TALK FOOTBALL, and respect the views of others, I want to thanks KevinE and Ken for doing a great job managing the site and to thank all of you who I consider not just fellow Skins fans, but my Cyber Friends on making my Fandom much more enjoyable and helping me connect closer not only to the team, but to the fanbase over there. Redskins fans are the best fans in THE WORLD even better than the Supporters of my other Sporting love, The Mighty Hawthorn Football Club in the Australian Football League, THE MIGHTY HAWKS!! (feel free to adopt them as your AFL team at any time)
Well i'm off to my weeks break (in 100 degree heat rather than 100 inches of snow) and I really just want to re-iterate how much I appreciate the knowledge of the game that you share, the patience to answer some of my occasionally idiotic questions and most importantly the Respect you have shown me and each other in the time I have been on the site, it truly has been a pleasure.
And I will see you all the New Year where we can start arguing/debating/discussing the most important draft in Redskins history, stay safe everyone please.
You Friend from Down Under
P.S. Feel free to barf if this was a bit to sickly sweet, I feel like I may be sick myself and I wrote it :)

Law enforcement officials say the recent increase can be linked to two factors. They say the Prescription Drug Monitoring Program and changes in pill makeup make it harder for users to crush and smoke it.
"The Prescription Drug Monitoring Program, and again a very positive thing for our community, but it stopped the doctor shop, the abuse of the pills and the access of the pills to begin with. We have the same number of people who are addicted yet they need treatment, so they're self treating by switching over to heroin," said Chief Mark Holtzman, Hagerstown Police Department.
After every heroin overdose case the Washington County Narcotics Task Force interviews users to learn where the drugs are coming from and who's using. They say some users are as young as 15-years-old.
"That's quite alarming when you have kids that are that young that are addicted because this isn't something they're going to be able to kick the habit by themselves," said Sheriff Doug Mullendore, Washington County Sheriff's Office.
"We do know we've had at least two cases where it was fentanyl that was sold as heroin. And so when you get that and you're taking a different drug other than what you think you've purchased that chances of an overdose are pretty high," said Mullendore.
But overall many users are willing to take the risk for the high
"A lot of the people we talk to who have a heroin addiction will tell you that they overdose to get the high. The fact that they die during the overdose really means nothing for them because they need that high, and they need to take more and more to get the high," said Mullendore.
Officers say it'll take the community's help to combat this growing drug trend.
"Sometimes court mandated is the only answer but as equally important is the community as whole through the Health Department, the network of family, friends and other organizations, I think this is going to take a community approach to solve this problem," said Holtzman.
To help prevent prescription drugs from hitting the streets, officers ask that residents take any old or expired prescriptions to the Washington County Sheriff's Office so they can be destroyed properly.

Panthers coach John Fox and ailing No. 1 quarterback Jake Delhomme again proved to be capable foes in the chess game with the media Wednesday afternoon, refusing to divulge who will start at quarterback Sunday against visiting Tampa Bay. Both even went as far as to avoid answering questions about which finger Delhomme had injured on his throwing hand in the loss to the Jets last Sunday.
That said, all signs point toward Matt Moore starting against the Bucs, and perhaps for the rest of the season. Moore, in his third season out of Oregon State, said he is a better quarterback than he was when he made the only three previous starts of his career in 2007. Teammates agree. This is precisely what they had to say Wednesday:
Moore practiced earlier Wednesday but Delhomme did not. Delhomme is "day-to-day," Fox said, and the injured finger is still broken. Fox declined to name a starter for Sunday's game and said he has not considered placing Delhomme on injured reserve.
Delhomme would be "hard-pressed" to grip a football right now, he said. He also said his pinky is not the injured finger. When asked if he expects the injury to heal soon enough for him to play Sunday, he replied: "I don't know."
But Delhomme sure seemed like he is resigned to Moore being the starter. If not, than he gave thoughtful answers to what for him were hypothetical questions: "I think Matt's going to do an outstanding job" when he plays again, Delhomme said. When asked if Moore could orchestrated the entire Panthers' playbook -- which he did not do in 2007 -- Delhomme replied, "I wouldn't see why not."
Delhomme also speculated on how Moore could progress as a quarterback. "You've got to learn on the job," he said. "Until you're out there playing, that's when you learn."
While Fox and Delhomme seemed to know the plan for Sunday, Moore looked like he was clueless. "I'm here. I'm I guess a puppet," he said. "If they want to use me..."
If they do use Moore Sunday, he says he is confident. Moore is more consistent and no longer makes the little mistakes that he made when he started the final three games of the 2007 season, he said. The game has slowed down for him. Whereas in 2007, he felt the need to get rid of the ball quickly and often threw to one of his first two options, he understands now that when he drops back to pass, he will usually have time to scan the field. That means he looks more to his fourth read and checkdown backs.
Moore is also more accustomed to the tempo of the NFL game, he says, which helps him relax on the sideline and prepare himself for another offensive series. He is much more comfortable with the playbook than he was in 2007, and does not consider himself an NFL novice any longer. In fact, he says, he tries to approach the game like a veteran and tells himself, "I'm not a young guy anymore."
Moore, like Delhomme, entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent. He began this season as the Panthers' No. 3 quarterback, much like he was when he joined the team in 2007. That year he made his first career start in a December home game against Seattle. He won two of three starts, although the second win came against a Tampa Bay team resting many starters for the playoffs.
Moore knows he has yet to prove himself in the NFL. "I've just got to win to prove myself," he says. He may get an opportunity Sunday, which he would relish. "The lifespan (of a player) in the NFL is not too long, so if you can do anything to extend that opportunity, that's good."
In addition to Delhomme, a couple offensive teammates spoke about Moore Wednesday. Tight end Jeff King agrees that Moore looks more like an NFL quarterback than he did in 2007. "You can tell he's much more relaxed. He knows where he wants to go with the football," King said. "He's learning to play the position."
Tight end Gary Barnidge says having Moore in the lineup will not change much on offense. Said Barnidge: "I think he's a great quarterback."

A new campaign called Cancer Stomp has raised 13 thousand dollars for the Cancer Coalition of South Georgia.
The funds will help support cancer screening for people in Dougherty and surrounding counties. Every year the Coalition funds about 800 Cancer screenings. The campaign ran for about six weeks in Albany.
About 30 businesses and a dozen civic groups participated. Coordinators say the money all stays here in south Georgia.
"Therefore people that participate in these fundraising campaigns can be assured that they are saving lives of their potential family members, friends neighbors, all of the resources stay in this area.," says CEO Diane Fletcher.
The next Cancer Stomp will be held in Miller County. For more information or to hold a "Cancer Stomp" in your area, you can call the Cancer Coalition of South Georgia. That number is 229-312-1701.

End all the speculation...Rafael Perez is on the Major League...at least for tonight.
From Rotoworld...
"Indians recalled LHP Rafael Perez from Triple-A Buffalo."
"Perez, 24, had a 4.38 ERA in 12 1/3 innings for Cleveland last season. He's up to give the Indians innings in case of a short outing from Cliff Lee tonight."
Francisco and Choo are both in AAA again.
This was done in case they need an extra arm tonight.
Next decision is what will happen with Westbrook. Carmona will be called up but will it be with Perez being sent down and one of the OF moving back up???

Private firm seeks to reserve huge airspace in Lapland for testing of unmanned aerial vehicles
Permanent reservation of airspace would call for change in law
print this
The private Tampere-based firm Robonic Ltd wishes to reserve a large block of airspace in Eastern Lapland for testing of the unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) manufactured by the company's foreign clients
For three months this summer, Robonic would like to reserve an area of up to 11,000 square kilometres in size.
According to Robonic managing director
Juha Moisio
, the aim is to place a permanent reservation for the airspace. That way the company could activate parts of the area depending on how much airspace is needed even on the morning of the test day. During that time the use of the activated area would be prohibited to other aircraft.
Such an arrangement
would require changes to the law. In its present form, the law enables instituting fly bans only for two weeks at a time.
At least initially, there is preparedness within the Ministry of Transport and Communication to contemplate such a possible amendment, Counsellor
Mikael Nyberg
states. The Aviation Act has to revised in any case because of new EU regulations. In the same instance the possibility of renting airspace to private clients and the price for such activity could be looked into.
The UAV drones
are unable to dodge other air traffic in the same fashion as a manned plane. In some countries, UAVs are allowed to fly only if there is a manned plane accompanying them.
In Lapland the possibility of a mid-air collision would be avoided by reserving a large enough airspace for the sole use of UAVs. Such a possibility simply does not exist in the more congested parts of Europe.
There is little
flight activity in large areas above the backwoods of Lapland. "An understanding could be reached with the small flying club of Kemijärvi", Moisio believes.
Still, executive director
Kai Mönkkönen
of the Finnish Aeronautical Association (FAA), the national and central organization of sport aviation in Finland, is taken aback by the very idea that airspace could be private.
The airspace craved by Robonic would cut off the route used by those civil aviators wanting to fly from Southern Finland into Lapland without having to go through the Rovaniemi military air-traffic control area. The use of the Rovaniemi airspace would require permission from the military.
"How could anybody reserve a giant slice of the national airspace for their own commercial purposes and cut off everybody else?" asks an astonished Mönkkönen.
Kemijärvi city manager Timo A. Korva
is in favour of the Robonic plans. The city plans to extend the runway of its small airport from 1.5 to 2.5 kilometres to accommodate the UAV demands.
"The Robonic plan would contribute to Kemijärvi's technology environment image. Furthermore, the UAV people would become significant users of the city's tourism services", Korva reasons.
