Timbers U-23s earn 2-0 road win over Fraser Valley
ABBOTSFORD, B.C. – The Portland Timbers U-23s received second-half goals from midfielder Steven Evans and forward Emery Welshman and a shut-out performance from goalkeeper Spencer Richey in a 2-0 road win over Fraser Valley Mariners FC at Bateman Field on Friday night.
In the middle of a season-long, three-match road stretch, the Timbers U-23s keep pace in the playoff race in the Premier Development League's Northwest Division with the win. Following Friday's results, Portland currently sits in a two-way tie in second place with the Washington Crossfire.
Scoreless at halftime, the Timbers U-23s took the lead early in the second half after Fraser Valley was called for a handball in the box, which set up Evans for a penalty-kick goal. In the final minutes of the contest, a long ball played over the top by Richey set up Welshman for a scoring chance and the forward was able to put away the insurance goal for the 2-0 victory.
Richey recorded his second shutout of the season and was credited with an assist, Evans scored his third goal of the season and Welshman logged his second goal to help lead the Timbers U-23s (8-3-1, 25pts) to their third win in the last four matches.
Mariners FC (0-12-1, 1pt) received 13 saves from goalkeeper Mark Village in the loss as the team closed out its June schedule.
The Timbers U-23s finish a two-game road trip in British Columbia on Saturday against Victoria Highlanders FC at Royal Athletic Park at 7:15 p.m. (Pacific).
Notes: The Timbers U-23s swept the regular-season series against Fraser Valley with a record of 2-0-0 and out-scored Mariners FC 5-0 in the series … All-time, Portland is 5-2-0 against Fraser Valley … Spencer Richey becomes the first Timbers U-23s goalkeeper to record an offensive point with his assist against Mariners FC … The Timbers U-23s have won back-to-back road matches to improve their road record to 3-2-1 in 2012 … Forward Mark Sherrod had a three-game scoring streak come to an end Friday against Fraser Valley ... Portland held Fraser Valley to just two shots - an opponent season low ... The two teams ahead of the Timbers U-23s in the division standings entering the weekend – Washington Crossfire and Kitsap Pumas – played Friday night in Bremerton, Wash., with the Pumas earning a 2-1 win to take the lead in the Northwest Division at 26 points (8-3-2).

As we grow older, Dan grows more philosophical. His latest book continues where "Greening Steam" left off. Applying lessons learned and advise gleaned through the troupe of Internet experts, Classic Hydronics teaches everything the most seasoned installer or service guy would want to know about hot water heating. And the best part is that you won't even know you're learning. Gosh, why couldn't high school be this interesting?
From the history of ancient heating to the selection of circulators for the newest project, this book teaches every detail. Cold rooms? Air noises? Want to make a circulator explode? Read Classic Hydronics and learn how to do it.
Thank you Dan. Every book is better than the one before.

We're SorryClose
Happily Ever After Contest
Never had a honeymoon
- Contest Photo by: jereed31
- Arcade, NY
We've Been Together for:
We have been together for 9 years, married for 7.
My Love Story is:
We met as teenagers and when I said I wasn't ready for dating and wanted to be friends, he listened and didn't ditch me. He still called and we hung out with friends and kissed each other occasionally, but he still didn't push the issue. He really showed me there were good guys out there that had good morals and respect for others. He graduated that year and went away to college and I didn't see him again for about 12 years. I remember running into him several times and being so happy to see him, but I was so clueless. My friend finally told me he was really into me, just shy. That was when I realized everything I was looking for in a relationship was right in front of me and I hadn't even seen it. From that night on, we were pretty much inseparable. What really sealed the deal was when I introduced him to my 2 year old son. He was so natural, like this was his kid and it was no big deal. We never had a honeymoon because we bought a house instead, so this would be amazing!
Contest Photo Tips and Guidelines:
- Photos should contain two (2) people – no groups or pictures of just one person.
- Share your love story – tell us how you met, share your experiences from when you got married, tell us why you want a Disney Fairy Tale Wedding or why you want to renew your vows!
- Upload your wedding photo, engagement photo, a picture taken during a fun vacation or at a special event -- or, show us a photo of you two today!
- Please steer clear of clothing with BIG logos on it or brand-name products in the background
- We want to keep you safe! Please don't include anything with your or your partner's full name, address, or your location in the picture
- Your image needs to be in JPEG format and less than 3MB in file size

Both parties have expressed their delight on news of the agreement which sees the elite brand partner with London Wasps until the close of the 2008/09 season.
As the official Champagne of London Wasps and England, Bollinger has a vested interest in rugby at both club and international levels. Having already built a strong and successful five year association with London Wasps, Bollinger have been delighted with the club's success both domestically and in Europe. "It is the association of two high quality brands," said the former Chairman of Mentzendorff Bill Page, who still oversees the relationship.
London Wasps' Commercial Director, Peter Scrivener, added "I am delighted that we are continuing this very strong partnership with such a premium brand and an organisation that is a pleasure to deal with".
Champagne Bollinger is one of the few remaining independent, family owned and managed houses, founded by Jacques Bollinger in 1829. For many years it has been one of the top selling premium Champagne brands in the UK.

Zack's Kernel News
Zack's Kernel News
Chronicler Zack Brown reports on the latest news, views, dilemmas, and developments within the Linux kernel community.
The kerneloops.org site has been down for a long time, but it may be getting some love in the near future. Jiri Slaby first reported that the site was broken back in June and was followed by a small chorus of interested folks who were also interested. For several months, there was no news, and Alan Cox speculated that the site might simply be gone for good.
Finally in August, Arjan van de Ven invited people to help fix the code. Andi Kleen remarked that it had been a very useful service, and that it would be good to get it working again. A couple of people expressed interest, including Bastien Roucaries, Arnaud Lacombe, and Josh Hunt, but, as of this writing, the site still gives the same error Jiri initially reported – a kernel version mismatch when trying to view recent kernels.

Lynchburg, VA - Lynchburg police have charged a man they say broke into a home on Liggates Road and raped a complete stranger.
Police arrested Richard Martin-Busher on Tuesday for allegedly trying to break into the Grand Home Furnishings Store on Fort Avenue.
By Wednesday, investigators charged him with walking into an unlocked home on Liggates Road on March 4, beating up and raping a middle aged woman.
According to Martin-Busher's Facebook page, he performed roofing work and handyman services in the Lynchburg area.
Police haven't said what may have brought him to Liggates Road that day. But they suspect he's responsible for even more property crimes.
He's scheduled to be in court in September.

Roosevelt's 1944 call for an 'Economic Bill of Rights' is still relevant, especially for the South
"So why recall Roosevelt's 1944 State of the Union?" Guillory and Hart ask. "Because 2011 is developing into a year of reckoning — a moment of difficult decisions that cry out for leaders focused on equity, opportunity and competitiveness in arming the nation's people and their communities for coping with a time of disruption." Guillory and Hart argue that too many Americans are not truly free in the face of financial insecurity. A growing group of young adults without the skills to get an education or better job are in even worse shape.
"We need to fix an education system bound by early industrial-era structures at a time when we need schools to prepare young people for coping with a 21st century of life-long learning," Guillory and Hart write, noting that "across the South and the nation, a community's skill levels will determine its economic prospects." The two writers call for regional collaboration that goes "beyond the urban/rural/city/state boundaries that now constrain our thinking." Guillory and Hart conclude, "However difficult our current economic moment, it is an opportunity for leaders who would seize it to chart a course, not for a return to an old 'normal,' but toward a more prosperous society, more widely shared. That's what FDR was trying to do. And it's what we need today." (Read more)
The Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum has more information about the speech. The MDC report, State of the South, is also available.

After enjoying initial success as a British blues band, Fleetwood Mac became a wildly popular "soft rock" ensemble in the 1970s and '80s, dominating the mainstream music market around the world. Their albums, including the multimillion selling Rumours, are considered classics, while singles such as "Rhiannon," "Dreams," "Don't Stop," and "Little Lies" have stood the test of time to become landmark songs of an era.
Fleetwood Mac offers a unique view of a band whose name has become synonymous with the both the triumph and heartache of rock and roll stardom.

I couldn't stand Away Team. Love Armada though! Wish I would have bought the second one back when it was easy to find and reasonably priced...
Armada 2 had a boring story. Wouldn't play it again

After the initial swell of bad reviews that STO got complaining about how it was little more than a fancy trek combat sim, I decided to give it 1 year to improve. If Cryptic is listening to reviewers and actually fleshing out the game more/ bringing it closer to an MMO version of Final Unity or 25th aniversary/jugment rites
(the best trek games ever..armada was good too but in a different way.).
then I'll be happy to subscribe in a year right now the product just isnt worth playing and these numbers show that.
I wonder why publishers in recent years have flatly ignored the adventure/ puzzle elements that made older trek games a hit and been churning out boring shoot em ups instead
Mom, how many times do I have to tell you, Track is what athletes run on. Trek is what the Enterprise goes on.
-Free Enterprise
I'm not sure, as of now, when I'll be coming back to STO. Got other things to pay for...but I'll come back at some point.
I agree with radoskal regarding the actual gameplay itself. I don't care for the type of shoot 'em up that Cryptic put forward, especially the ground combat (absolutely atrocious IMO). The space combat was fun, but got old after the initial month. Some of that 25th Anniversary/Judgment Rites/Final Unity gameplay, even in a more limited form would be a welcome addition. Hope things improve whenever I return.
Never heard of Away Team.
Anyway (spoiler coming) your investigations, aided by Ambassador Worf and Commander Data, reveal that a contagion consisting of modified Borg nanites had been used as a means of controlling key people in all the major empires of the galaxy. The investigation ends up leading you to Vulcan, and an elderly Vulcan monk or scientist (I can't remember which) had been using Borg nanites as a way of fighting off the effects of Bendii syndrome and ultimately (either by accident or on purpose) went one step further and tried using them to impose logic and order throughout the galaxy's inhabitants by controlling the leadership of the various factions.
I rather enjoyed the game. You have a pool of officers to choose from, each with various specialties. The Vulcans officers are capable of the nerve pinch. In addition to the standard hand phaser and phaser rifles there are more specialized weapons like a long range pulse rifle that is used like a sniper rifle. There are also grenades, remote mines, something like a hand held neural disruption device. The explosive items come in very handy in the Borg missions where you want to conserve your phasers to hold off adaptations as long as possible. Some of the missions require subtlety like if you kill a Romulan guard and another guard finds the body, he'll run off and sound the alarm. So in some cases you need to weigh the options of either systematically eliminating each guard in an area or simply trying to avoid confrontation and detection all together. Or if you do end up in a confrontation, sometimes it's best to stun the guard and leave the area fast as doing so will not cause alarms to be set off. Sound is another thing that affects stealth in the game. Weapons fire does make noise which can alert guards. Movement makes noise. If you run you make the most noise, walking makes less noise, and creeping by makes the least noise. The hand phasers also have an overload setting which allows you to use them like grenades.

The story seems off the deep end but the play detail is not something I've encountered before in a Trek Game.
This screen shot shows one of the early away missions in the game where you board an Akira class starship that starfleet lost contact with. The Vulcan engineer in the group has an advanced mind meld capability which has little use tactically in the game, it's more of a plot device. And now that I look at this screenshot, if you look at the inventory menu on the lower right side, the item on the right side of the hand phaser was another nice little device the game developers came up with. It's supposed to be an EMP grenade. Quite harmless, but you can temporarily disable security cameras and Borg drones with it. Only engineers carry them just as the neural disruptor I mentioned earlier is only carried by medical officers. Another nice little device that one of your science officers can make use of is a personal cloaking device that you capture from a Romulan centurion in the first away mission. I think there's also a portable holo emitter that you can use to project the image of a person to distract enemies.
The developers had a little bit of fun in that they added an ensign in the game who's a security officer and one of the crew's marksmen. I forget his first name but he's supposed to be like the son of Kirk's nephew or something like that. They even kind of go out of the way to poke fun at Shatner and actually make him talk like Kirk but adding pauses in the voice overs. For example when he gets shot he goes, "I'm...under...attack..."
As you noted, there's a fair amount of detail that was given in terms of the tactical abilities of the team, which is rather unprecedented in a Star Trek game. While some of the abilities like overloading a phaser have appeared in the classic era of the Star Trek games, they only existed as a plot device and where not available at any other point in those games. Part of the away missions include secondary objectives which can be done or ignored at the players discretion, however it is very advisable to do them because as you complete secondary objectives, it unlocks upgrades to you equipment that your science and engineering teams have been developing, the details of which are usually given during your subsequent mission briefings as they're unlocked. For example at one point you have to try to get Worf into the chamber of the Klingon High Council to bring evidence that the Federation isn't trying to overthrow the empire or something. The secondary objective I think is to do so with no Klingon deaths. Or when you infiltrate a Romulan base you want to remain undetected and no Romulan deaths.
This is the box art showing Captain Marcus Refelian, the commanding officer in the center.
If you've played Armada 2 and done the last mission or paid close attention during the opening cinematic showing the Enterprise docked at that trading station then you'll recognize the USS Incursion. Not my favorite ship, visually speaking, but I have no real complaints.
Typical mission briefing screen after which you can put together your away team, however in certain points in the story you have to make do with whatever officers are available.

Jeffrey Gettleman of The Times was cited for his coverage of famine and conflict in East Africa. Mr. Gettleman nominated himself for the award, and he beat out other Times reporters nominated for their coverage of the Japanese tsunami. While "some reporters might have felt his editors knew best" about the nomination, said Joseph Kahn, The Times's foreign editor, "Jeffrey put himself forward for the Pulitzers — and for that, Jeffrey, bless your heart."

MVA Document Guide prepares residents for new driver license and ID card requirements
Glen Burnie, MD (December 17, 2012) – The Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) has launched a new page on its website, mva.maryland.gov/MHSO, to prepare Marylanders with new driver license and identification card requirements. The guide helps residents determine which documents they will need to bring with them to an MVA branch office when they apply for a Maryland driver's license, learner's permit, commercial driver's license (CDL), or identification (ID) card.
The MVA Document Guide will enable residents to:
- Determine if they will need to visit an MVA branch office.
- Create a personalized checklist detailing documents they will need.
- Obtain contact information showing where to get required documents.
- Browse a list of MVA branch offices in their local area.
The new link on our website will make it easier for all who apply for an MVA license or ID card to ensure they have the documents necessary to comply with Maryland's identity, residency and lawful presence requirements.
Residents are encouraged to use the MVA Document Guide not only to identify the documents they need, but also to find out branch offices location and when they should visit an MVA branch office. All Maryland residents wishing to obtain a new license, legally change their name prior to their renewal date, or have had their licenses revoked cancelled or refused should visit an office with the required documents ready for processing.
"We want the driver's license and identification card process to be as easy as possible for everyone in Maryland. The new MVA Document Guide is intended to be convenient and helpful," said MVA Administrator John Kuo.
If you are simply renewing your license, have not changed your name, are not revoked, have not had your license cancelled or refused and it is not expired for longer than one year, you may not need to visit an MVA branch office. Every other renewal of a Marylander's license or ID card can be done by mail, online or at an MVA self-service kiosk. However, for those individuals who do not fit into those circumstances, some preparation may be required and the MVA encourages you to visit the website to keep from having to make a second trip to a branch office. For more information, visit the MVA's website at: mva.maryland.gov/MHSO.
Anywhere, anytime, MVA online.

I would describe Super Bowl Week not the game itself, but the buildup to it thusly: Thousands of journalists bound by custom and formula all writing and saying basically the same things while trying unsuccessfully to repackage them for an audience that not only has already heard these stories, but is sick enough of them to scream.
In other words, pretty much what I am doing right here with my Super Bowl Week primer, a list of top 10 story lines, a national cheat sheet for my media brethren set to descend locust-like upon New Orleans for the upcoming 49ers-Ravens game.
1. Ray Lewis: Baltimores great linebacker (and ex-Hurricane) will be at the emotional epicenter of this game, a role for which he is insanely well suited. Ray is a baller. I dont just mean once the game starts. Hes bawling during the national anthem, pulling muscles with his squirrel dance and giving pregame speeches so fiery the field under his feet is left charred and smoldering.
Your Friend the Media will plumb the soul of the Canton-bound Lewis and wonder aloud if he is the greatest defensive player ever. Coverage of him mostly will be breathlessly rosy, although some the Serious Journalists Who Know It Isnt All Fun and Games will be unable to resist the temptation to revisit the 2000 murder indictment, later dismissed in exchange for Rays testimony against two other men. (These same Serious Journalists also will be writing densely this week about the leagues concussion crisis, a story no less important because nobody cares to read about it.)
My hope? After a million floral retrospectives and odes to Lewis swan song have been reverently crafted, Ray casually mentions the day after the game that he has changed his mind and isnt retiring, after all.
2. The Harbaughs: Bro Bowl! Har-Bowl! Super Baugh! This has not been reported anywhere else, to my knowledge, but apparently Jim and John Harbaugh will be the first head coach brothers ever to duel in a Super Bowl. And oh how the media swoons with enchantment! Father and former longtime college coach Jack Harbaugh, 73, will be more popular in New Orleans next week than beignets at Café Du Monde. Mom Jackie will need a phalanx of bodyguards to fend off the rush of reporters all seeking warm memories of a Harbaugh childhood, and tears, if she wouldnt mind.
For an offshoot, there also will be much contrasting and comparing of the Harbaughs with the NAwlins-based Mannings: Peyton, Eli and patriarch Archie. (Its why I have bought stock in media use of the phrase first family of football.)
My hope? A major news outlet (thinking Yahoo!) will have the exclusive, intriguing interview with heretofore unknown third brother Jasper Harbaugh, but it will turn out Jasper never existed and was the work of the same guy who duped Manti Teo.
3. Bountygate: A Super Bowl held in New Orleans the season of the Saints crippling Bountygate scandal and resulting penalties will spawn a thousand reheated analyses. (Not to mention vicious postgame booing of Roger Goodell as he presents the Vince Lombardi Trophy.)
4. Media Day: This is the one day during Super Bowl Week when both teams appear in the stadium and thousands of media members swarm upon them. The occasion is such that an investment in media references to circus atmosphere might be prudent. This event is renowned for the Wacky Foreign Journalist, typically a Mexican radio bombshell in a low-cut wedding dress asking the quarterbacks to marry her, and also for the Adorable Kid Reporter, typically a 12-year-old there for Nickelodeon who gets ushered to the front of the line by handlers rudely elbowing through the crowd of legitimate journalists.
This also is where hundreds of columnists looking for an easy day on account of a tee time lament the media excess and circus atmosphere of Media Day, unbothered by the irony that they are contributing to that excess by writing about it.
5. Kaepernick/Flacco: It is mandatory a Super Bowls quarterbacks be the focus of the perspective-laden piece placing each man in an historical context, a formula challenging this time because neither one has been in a Super Bowl before. (Or, as we in the media love to write and say: On this stage before.)
The peg for Raven Joe Flacco: Is he elite? This will be the game that anoints or denies him. Unless perhaps the Ravens win even though Joe had a really crappy game, in which case a reevaluation of the word elite might be necessary.
The peg for San Franciscos Colin Kaepernick: The Breath of Fresh Air. Nine games ago, this guy was most known for his tattoos, but now hes a pass/run wunderkind. Watch an enterprising columnist visit a New Orleans tattoo parlor (say, Tats R Us) to discuss Kaepernicks body art with an eclectic local ink god only to discover that 14 other enterprising columnists are there doing the same thing.
6. Football vs. real life: This is the staple annual theme piece for the beyond-sports, big-picture journalist (thinking Mitch Albom, or perhaps Jeremy Schaap) who delights to juxtapose the extravagance and partying that surround a Super Bowl with the poverty being endured by real folks just blocks away.
Any host city offers this contrast, dare say New Orleans more than most. This is where the serious writer notes that champagne, lobster and shrimp the size of kittens are being served at the Commissioners Party while, six blocks away, a family of 11 displaced by Hurricane Katrina lives in squalor battling over a can of tuna. (If the actual conditions are not quite squalor, well, this is why God invented embellishment!)
7. O.J. Brigance: Most of the tear-jerk stories will center on Lewis farewell and on the Har-Bros, but here is the real deal. Brigance, 43, is a former Ravens linebacker who now works in the clubs front office. He suffers from ALS (Lou Gehrigs Disease), is wheelchair-bound and speaks through a computerized voice. Lewis calls him his and the teams biggest inspiration.
Bonus: Brigance played four seasons for the Dolphins (1996-99), so he qualifies to fill the coveted Hometown Angle role for South Florida reporters trying to localize the Super Bowl for their readers.
8. The other Canes: Heres another Hometown Angle for the Miami guys to plumb. Stock premise: Ray Lewis is getting all the attention, but Baltimore safety Ed Reed and tackle Bryant McKinnie are other prominent ex-Miami Hurricanes for the Ravens, along with injured running back Damien Berry and receiver Tommy Streeter. For the 49ers, running back Frank Gore is a major player, and linebacker Tavares Gooden is a reserve. Oh, and of course Ted Ginn Jr., former Dolphins No. 1 draft pick, is a return guy for the Niners, so well be looking for local reporters to invite a gloating Ginn to complain how he never got a fair shot here.
9. Randy Moss: A thousand stories and sound bites all will portray the Niners backup receiver and once-controversial figure as the forgotten superstar of this Super Bowl. Even though he obviously isnt forgotten at all if so many people are writing and talking about him.
10. Local flavor: These is where media folks sent to New Orleans on the company dime justify the expenditure and prove to their bosses they arent covering the game from their hotel bar by venturing into the city and filing descriptive color pieces. These would include the aromatic Cajun cuisine of Bourbon Street, the buoyant brass of the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, casual use of the words gris-gris or hoodoo, and (almost certainly) a requisite tarot-card reading.
A journalists research would likely also include three or four Hurricane cocktails at Pat OBriens, a fact that would be omitted from ones color piece but be deftly hidden on ones expense report.
That last thing is pure speculation, of course. Im not speaking from experience or anything.

One in five UK savers (21 percent) have less than £500 put aside with 11% having less than £100 in savings.
Research from Nationwide Building Society also revealed that one third of savers are also having to dip into their savings at least once per quarter. The research also revealed that 62 percent of people cannot afford to save at all or more than they already are.
Just half of those currently saving are using a cash ISA.
Darren Bailey, Head of Savings Pricing at Nationwide Building Society, said: "The rising cost of living continues to impact family finances and despite wanting to save, many are finding they just don't have the spare money.
"Yet, even putting a small amount aside each month can produce a decent nest egg which can give families funds to fall back on should they need too.
"The needs of each individual saver will differ and it's important that people find the best account to suit their needs. One of the most important factors for savers when selecting a savings account is being able to access their money as and when they need to with the majority opting for a cash ISA where interest can be earned tax-free.
"Although the economic climate may not be ideal for savers, nearly nine in ten people continue to value the importance of putting money aside for a rainy day."

Got any facts to back up what you're saying?
No, really, that's all I have because there's nothing more to say to that comment but eyeroll.
Read too quickly, thought you were colebiancardi.
This is someone who had to wait till early June to secure the nomination. And if he had attempted that and failed, the MSM would have bleated: "Obama wants to unite the country, can't unite own party!" From now until November.
It was Pelosi's job to deliver the House and it's Obama's job to vote against FISA immunity but anything more is over-reaching, IMO.
Reid and Pelosi = leaders of the party.
Obama = possible leader of the party but till November 5th, he's nothing but a junior Senator with great potential.
Yeah, cause when I think "lockstep" I think "canadian gal".
If you're going to insult someone, is it too much to ask that the insults make sense? I mean, really now.
Though this being a site for DEMOCRATS then yes, people will promote DEMOCRATS over non-Democrats and most definitely over Republicans. And those who run contrary will not get a warm welcome just like a Yankees fan who wants to post on a Red Sox board and tell them everyone there how the Boston team sucks, will not be appreciated.
Insane, I know.

On the abortion story. They also reported the faith-based story stating he would let charities discriminate based on faith - a flat-out lie on their part. They've done this repeatedly and I don't trust their interpretation of the abortion story.
How is he going to "unite the House", he's a Senator? You do realize he has no control over what happens in the House because he's in the Senate, right?
Iraq - he isn't going to get us out there anytime soon, based on his latest comments.
I give up! Are you for real?

I was interested after watching the Broncos 12th victory under Kyle Orton, since it felt like another KO W where we never trailed. After going through all 63 of his box scores to see some splits I was surprised to find out he trailed in almost half of his wins. The Broncos are 1-1 on the season and somehow tied for the lead in the AFC west. For the Broncos to have any sort of shot at a winning season we need to play into the strengths of our game managing Quarterback Kyle Orton. How have teams he has led won in this league? Here is your answer: Fast starts...
KO is 33-30 as a starting QB in the NFL. In his 33 wins, his team never trailed in 17 of those contests. In his other 16 wins his team's largest deficit was as follows,
3 points Minnesota, 2nd Quarter, Final 28-3
3 points Detroit, 2nd Quarter, Final 19-13
3 points New Orleans, 1st Quarter, Final 20-17
3 points San Fran, 2nd Quarter, Final 17-9
4 points Green Bay, 2nd Quarter, Final 19-17
3 points Atlanta, 2nd Quarter, Final 16-3
3 points Indy, 1st Quarter, Final 29-13
10 points Detroit, 3rd Quarter, Final 27-23
3 points New Orleans, 4th Quarter, Final 27-24
7 points Green Bay, 4th Quarter, Final 20-17
1 point Cincinatti, 4th Quarter, Final 12-7
3 points Cleveland, 1st Quarter, Final 27-6
10 points Dallas, 1st Quarter, Final 17-10
10 points New England, 3rd Quarter, Final 20-17
6 points San Diego, 3rd Quarter, Final 34-23
4 points Tennessee, 4th Quarter, Final 26-20
What this says to me is that if a Kyle Orton led team trails at any point, his teams are 16 and 30 for his carreer. If his team is trailing by 4 points or more he has only recorded 7 wins as a professional. Teams led by KO have never overcome a lead larger than 10 points. As you can see most (9) of the largest deficits that his teams have faced and overcome are in the first half. In addition his teams have lost 9 games in which his team had a 7 point lead. By far the most telling statistic I found was that when his team has the lead at halftime his carreer record as a starter is 26 wins 5 losses. If his team is tied or trailing at half his record as starter is 7 and 25.
The point of this is not to start another endless debate over who should be our QB because for the time being it's pointless. I think at this point no matter how we feel we can all agree the FO has no intention of playing anyone else at QB this year. The point is that for us to be successful, for us to be relevant this year we need to be in the lead by halftime and keep from going down by more than 3 or our odds of winning drastically decrease. All stats were gathered at pro-football-reference.com.
Interesting fact: I did not realize until today that Kyle Orton and Brandon Lloyd played together in Chicago. They connected for 26 receptions for 364 yards and 2 TD's in 2008.

SPECIAL OFFER: - Limited Time Only!
(The ad below will not display on your printed page)
"Elizabeth Taylor and I were laughing at lunch the other day," Kirstie Alley says in a way only Kirstie Alley can. She's so down-to-earth, Alley could say she was having lunch with Cleopatra herself and it wouldn't sound like name-dropping. "We realized there've been a few famous women who've been targeted for their weight -- and she and I are two of them. We've been stalked for decades for being fat!"
The actress and former Jenny Craig spokesperson is sitting at the butcher-block island in her green-tiled kitchen at home in Los Angeles. At 59, she may be better known for her yoyoing dress size than she is for starring in the popular sitcom Cheers or movies like Look Who's Talking. "The last time I stepped on a scale I was 230," says Alley, who is 5-foot-8 and weighed 143 when she flashed her bikini bod on Oprah in 2006, after a 75-pound drop. Wearing a bright silk dress, she still looks glamorous with her long blond hair, diamond bling, and manicured everything, but clearly she's ready for a change.
"It's insane! I'm disgusted with myself!" she says. Alley's tone is breezily matter-of-fact. "I let myself down and, worse than that, I let other people down. People were looking up to me for losing all that weight and then I went and got all chub on them. And I set a bad example for my children. I'm finally ready to pay everybody back."
As if on cue, a camera crew marches into the kitchen -- cameraman, sound guy, nervous producer, all in a line -- to get some shots for Kirstie Alley's Big Life, the new A&E reality series that premiered in March. The show chronicles her latest effort to beat the bulge once and for all by dropping 100 pounds. Along the way it introduces viewers to her two teenage children, son True, 17, and daughter Lillie, 15, from the actress's previous marriage to Hardy Boys actor Parker Stevenson. There's also a cast of real-life costars: friends, assistants, trainers, and the ever-present paparazzi.
"The most interesting part of life is the journey," Alley says. "Over the years I've lost weight, then I've gained it back. But no one has seen what happened in between. This show follows that journey." As she speaks a pair of lorikeets squawk behind her in an ornate birdcage. They're part of a veritable private zoo that also includes house cats, dogs, parrots, chinchillas, and a chattering troop of lemurs caged in front of Alley's pink 1920s Hollywood mansion. "It's been a major eye-opener, having these cameras around," Alley laughs, as the crew looks on from a doorway. "I had no idea how kooky I looked until I saw the early footage. Then I thought, Oh my God! I'm the crazy lemur lady!?"
The other revelation was how grossly overweight she had actually become. "I was shocked because I looked, you know, circus fat," says Alley, who claims cookies, salty snack foods, and no exercise were her undoing. Not to mention denial. "When we get fat, we fool ourselves with every kind of lie imaginable. By 2008 my weight started creeping up and I said, 'Oh, I still look good at 150. I still look good at 155. I still look okay at 165. Some of my clothes still fit at 175.' And nobody was saying, 'You're fat.' I was like a bank robber who was getting away with it. Next thing I know I'm 190, 200, 210 -- and meanwhile I'm only looking at myself in the mirror from the neck up."
As her size shot up, so did negative attention. National Enquirer splashed unflattering pictures of her on its covers. ("I notice more photographers at the gate outside my house when my weight goes up," Alley says. "Those ugly paparazzi shots sell.") By the time she returned to Oprah's couch in April 2009, Alley had gained all her weight back -- plus 10 pounds -- and she had become a kind of national punch line. "Punching bag is more like it," she sighs. Although she publicly committed to slimming down again, the hammering she got from late-night jokesters and supermarket tabloids hurt enough to send her into seclusion.
"My self-esteem was basically zero, so it was hard to get the eating under control," she says. "It made me completely self-conscious. I stopped going out, especially to restaurants. I stopped seeing my friends. I succumbed to the meanness and attacks and lost my way in the process. I'm telling you, it was hell."
Alley didn't always play the role of "fat actress," to borrow the title of her 2005 Showtime sitcom, loosely based on her weight troubles. As a girl growing up in Wichita, Kansas, she was a cheerleader and an athlete in a family where everyone was basically thin. "My mom was skinny, my dad was hot-looking, and my two siblings were just normal-looking healthy," Alley says, smirking. "People say, 'Oh, you're just big boned.' I'm not big boned. My bones are small. I just ate too much."
But coming under the lens of fame distorted her self-perception. "I remember the first time I dieted as an actress. I was 30 and weighed 124 pounds," she says, laughing at how silly that sounds. "I thought, if I could get under 120, I could be more successful. And fortunately or unfortunately, as soon as I got under 120, I got my first movie" -- Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. That milestone triggered a new way of thinking: "Being thin does make a difference, I told myself. In my head I got that role because I was 114 pounds, not because I was a good actress or looked like a Vulcan."
She says she began putting on the pounds after she had a miscarriage while playing the hyper-intelligent bar manager Rebecca Howe on Cheers, in 1989. The attention from that iconic '80s show went beyond anything she had experienced. "It was the first time I ever gained weight," she says. "I went from 118 to around 135 and the press began talking, which was weird because I was still thin." Later, male producers and directors and boyfriends she dated after her divorce would urge her to diet. Alley says it's a double standard that plagues women in show business. "If guys get fat in Hollywood, it's always for a role," she says. "If it's a woman, it's because she has let herself go to crap.
"I have never been bulimic, I have never been anorexic, I have never missed a meal in my life," she continues. "But when you have people in your life telling you you are fat, it starts messing with your head."
As she chats Alley alternates between sips of coffee and swigs of a cranberry-colored elixir she pours from a tall plastic bottle. It's part of a new signature weight-loss-supplement line called Kirstie Alley's Organic Liaison. The actress, who parted ways with Jenny Craig after her contract ran out in 2008, worked with nutrition researchers to develop the program. "Many weight-loss companies approached me about becoming their spokesperson, but I thought I could offer a better product," she says. "Little kids who grew up with the Jenny ads would come up to me and say, 'Hey, it's Jenny!' I thought, No, I'm Kirstie. I want to be the face behind my own success story." As for how she feels about her friend Valerie Bertinelli's impressive weight loss as a Jenny Craig spokesperson, Alley says, "I admire her and her abs so much, but, man, am I jealous. I honestly believe she won't gain her weight back."
Alley insists the plan will help her meet her own audacious weight goal of 135 pounds by the time Big Life wraps in late spring. "I know that's a serious challenge, but it comes from me asking, 'How do I want to live the second half of my life? What do I want to look like? It's up to me to become the person I want to be."
"'How come you never see overweight vampires?'?" Alley reads. "?'I guess blood is low-cal.' Oh, that's hilarious!" The actress has moved over to her laptop, where she's reading messages from her newest friends -- all 600,000-plus Twitter followers.
"I was never a computer person until I discovered Twitter last year and now I am beyond hooked," says Alley, who posts an average of 10 tweets a day. What she loves is the intimacy. "When you're famous you can't really talk to normal people. It's all about having your picture taken or people wanting something from you. On Twitter I can say, 'What's your life like? What are your challenges?' It has opened up a whole new reality to me I haven't had since I've been recognized as an actor."
As with everything she does, Alley Tweets with gusto and brass. She stirred up controversy this year for publicly blasting, among others, Joy Behar for overreacting to the Tiger Woods scandal. ("CHEATING is between a husband and wife," Alley wrote, "not TMZ and Joy Bewhore.") Another time she lashed out at what she called the "religion haters" of her faith, Scientology.
Alley has been a committed Scientologist for more than 20 years and credits the religion with helping her quit cocaine and smoking and, now, confronting her weight issues. "Scientology helps you lose your insanities," she explains. "One of the keys is they say, 'You're in charge of your life, buster. You're responsible for any condition you're in.' If I look at it that way, it helps. I've been irresponsible many, many, many times and that has resulted in my being fat. They hold you accountable to living a life without making excuses for yourself."
That means resisting urges. Alley says part of why she got big was her inability to say no. "On one hand, it was the greatest thing in the world getting fat," she says. "Every meal out was an event. Or we'd go to Italy and we'd have pasta, truffles, and dessert and then plan the next incredible meal. It was a happy-go-lucky time. I never had so much fun."
But she also gets satisfaction from slimming down; to date she estimates she has lost 30 pounds ("though I don't weigh myself," she insists). For her new Web site, organicliaison.com, Alley, who works out for an hour a day, plans to post a list of "50 Ways to Lose Your Blubber." Tips include dancing, jumping on a trampoline, walking instead of driving to dinner, and emulating kids. ("They're always in motion. Go ice-skating, play kickball!") "You've got to make this process fun or else you'll want to quit," she says. "Losing weight should be at least half as much fun as having sex."
Speaking of which, Alley rolls her eyes when asked how things are in the romance department. "Nonexistent," she says, but again, there's no heartache in her tone. "As I get older it's harder to know what I would want in a relationship. I love spending time with my kids and my friends and my animals. I love traveling and working. The last thing I need to think about is some dude."
Not that Alley doesn't have guys in her life.
"Hey guys! Treats!" she says, as she walks into the giant lemur enclosure in her front yard. Several cuties with zebra-striped tails come bounding toward her. Alley reaches into a bag of organic cranberries to feed them as a particularly friendly critter hops on her shoulder.
"Hi, Jimmy! What's up?"
Alley takes a seat and the lemurs climb all over her. After a minute she looks up and laughs because she knows how kooky it looks. "See what I mean?" she says. "It's crazy lemur lady!" But like all things, Alley doesn't take any of it -- especially herself -- too seriously. "Elizabeth Taylor helped me put things in perspective," she says, and it still doesn't sound like name-dropping. "She taught me to enjoy the craziness. And more important, to laugh at it. This is my life," she continues. "It's crazy, and it's definitely big. But it's my life -- and I love it."

According to Metro Police, state authorities have taken over the investigation into an illegal, unlicensed day care center that was closed by Chatham County fire marshals and Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police Tuesday.
The business, located at 1190 King George Boulevard, has operated under two different names: George Town Child Care Center and the George Town Fitness Center.
Now, Investigators from the Georgia Department of Family and Children Services through the Department of Early Childcare and Learning (DECAL) advised SCMPD Special Victims Unit are looking in to the case.
The business was given a cease and desist order from Chatham County Recorder's Court and found one adult and a 14-year-old girl caring for 11 children, all age 4 or younger.
When police arrived the adult locked the front door and left the center, leaving only the 14-year-old in charge.
News 3 has learned that the two operators of the center have already been charged by county authorities and were in Recorder's Court Tuesday morning.
Kimberly Denise Emerson, 47, and Erica Denise McKinney, 36, also known as Erica Hayward, were sentenced to 10 days in the Chatham County Detention Center for violating the court order.
Both women had significant arrest records in Savannah. Emerson has multiple drug arrests, prostitution, fraud and driving violations.
Records show the child care center had been closed down in Richmond Hill and most of the children attending were from the Richmond Hill area.
Police say that the women kept such poor records, that investigators worked several hours to identify parents to advise them to pick up their children.
A West Chatham Precinct patrol car was stationed at the center today to assure that no parents were dropping off children.

Local vehicle accidents are the focus of a new art exhibit. Fred Mitchell's "Photographs with Sculptural Tendencies" will feature photos capturing Las Vegas-area vehicular collision sites, including the marks and skids left behind. The photographs are then printed and reconstructed into three-dimensional forms.
On Tuesday, April 2 at 9:15 a.m. the Clark County Commission will honor Mitchell with a proclamation for the exhibit. The Commission will also declare April "Auto Safety Month." Clark County Commissioner Susan Brager will present the proclamation, who was once the victim of an accident involving a drunken driver.
"I applaud Mr. Mitchell, and I hope that the exhibit will help focus community attention on the need to improve traffic safety and safe driving behavior at a time when so many Clark County residents are needlessly injured and killed on our roadways," Brager said.
The exhibit will be open through May 24 at the Rotunda Gallery at the Clark County Government Center located at 500 S. Grand Central Pkwy. The exhibit is free, and is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., except holidays.
Mitchell will also give a presentation on Thursday, April 4 at 6:30 p.m. in the Clark County Government Center's Pueblo Room. The community is invited to the event.
