With the news of Pender being ineligible for the 2013 season how does this affect our RB situation beyond 2013? I feel as if this Pender situation is not going to get better. He got into some legal trouble before he came to FSU, then had commitment issues last year while going through rehab, then this year does not do his part in the classroom. I believe Bud said something that this could be an issue with Pender every year. I just wonder if the talent that Pender has is really worth the scholarship he is currently taking. He does not appear to be the kind of "Character" person that FSU has been bringing the past few years. I understand that you have to take risk on some players, and it could be a high risk v. high reward kind of thing, but I am starting to think that this may have blown up in FSU's face. Even in his commitment video he did with the local news station two years ago, you kinda got that feeling that the school side of the student athlete was going to be an issue. I said all of that to lead into this.....
The general opinion on here is that Wilder is gone after this season. We will return Freeman, and Ryan Green as the only 2 experienced backs. I was looking at ESPN, they show that 23 of the top 30 backs are already committed somewhere else except FSU. I understand that a verbal commitment means nothing but thought it should be noted. Of the 7 left uncommitted only 4 of them appear to have offers from FSU according to ESPN.
FSU in my opinion needs to get a back that will come in as a true freshman and be ready to take some snaps next season due to only having Ryan Green, and Devonta Freeman. While I think that Green and Freeman will complement each other as a grinder and a speedy guy, we will need a third guy to be ready to take snaps.
I know at one point Yearby was commited to FSU, and then flipped to the Canes. Has that ship sailed? Or if we can show a chance for early playing time as a freshman is it possible we flip him back?
Does Leonard Fournette start looking at FSU as an option now? Or is the greener pastures of LSU look to good to pass up? Hill is in the dog house right now due to his ongoing legal issues. LSU did not take a scholarship RB last recruiting cycle. They have Kenny Hilliard that was a 2011 SEC All-Freshman, and the second leading rusher last year behind Hill. So if Fournette signs with LSU he will be #2 behind a experienced Hilliard. If Fournette elects to come to FSU he will come in as a true freshman behind Senior Freeman and Soph. Green.
When was the last time LSU featured a full time back? I know that Fournette has been labeled as the best running back to come out of high school since Adrian Peterson. FSU has not featured a star running back since Fisher has taken the program and goes with a hot hand. Does this mentality affect a star running back's decision when looking at FSU? I said all of that to say this--- Does Pender's academic ineligibility and potential to never see the field at FSU increase our chances of landing a stub Running Back in the 2014 Recruiting Cycle? I am by no means a recruiting guru and may be missing some other running back recruit that could step in. Please if you know of someone or have any information about our running back recruiting please let me know.
Take it easy on me this is the first time I have ever done a Fan Post.

Item: Investigation of the Wallowa Mountains Snow Avalanche Climate
Title: Investigation of the Wallowa Mountains Snow Avalanche Climate
Proceedings: 2010 International Snow Science Workshop
- Keith R. Stebbings [ Wallowa Avalanche Center, Joseph, Oregon ]
- Tom Kimbrough [ Forest Service Utah Avalanche Center (retired), Salt Lake City, Utah ]
- Wendy Wagner [ University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah ]
Date: 2010
Abstract: The Wallowa Avalanche Center's first year of operation (2009/10) has lead to an interest in determining and/or verifying the snow avalanche climate of the Wallowa Mountain Range. Until recently there has been no formal avalanche hazard dissemination for the general public within the Wallowa Mountains of northeast Oregon. Additionally, there has been no routine daily meteorological or avalanche related recordkeeping within this mountainous region to the best of the authors' knowledge. In fact, no commercial ski resorts or highway snow safety study plots exist in this area to broaden the database. The supporting data analyzed incorporates a combination of SNOTEL stations, commercial outfitter and guide records, Remote Automated Weather Station (RAWS) and National Weather Service (NWS) records. Qualitative and quantitative data was collected from these sources over the previous 15 years. The analysis compares similarly acquired datasets from the Wasatch Range for consistency. The use of existing methodology and snow avalanche classification schemes places this region in the Intermountain climate. However, this investigation suggests the snow avalanche climate is a combination of Intermountain and Coastal/Continental.

Hand painted ceramics by award winning tattoo artist
David Williams
To keep up to date with new pieces, check out Face book page Dancing Plates. My name is David Williams, I have been a successful tattooist (david-williams-tattooist.weebly.com) for over 20 years now. After traveling around Asia for six years I have returned to the UK filled with inspiration and ideas, one of which I will be launching at the Bournemouth Tattoo Expo in May 2012. However, some are now available now for you to purchase if you wish. A collection of hand painted ceramic plates, tea pots, Vases, bowls, tea sets, jugs and other ceramics which are all hand painted with lead free ceramic paints in various tattoo styles. The Ceramics are made mostly in England. All styles are painted by hand onto the pieces by myself and not printed in China which is very often the case. Four layers of paint are used on every piece and give a depth and colour rarely achieved in ceramic painting. They are glazed and fired in a Sussex studio and are perfectly safe to eat off of or use, which will do no damage to them what so ever. They are quality durable items, which once painted are glazed and fired. However, they must be hand washed and not machine washed! Hand washing will cause no damage and these will never wear out of fade. The hand painted ceramic pieces are all unique artworks and are available for as little as £15.00 (egg cup) The Vase's range from £75.00 to £200.00. The tea Pots from £50.00 and the plates start around £60.00. There are discounts on sets and multiple purchases. These are unique, one off, beautiful pieces of art that can also be used for fun and will brighten up any table, house, studio, cabinet or wall! Please have a look through my website and if anything catches your eye please contact me and I can tell you if it is available and if not how long it will take to produce the item for you. Selected ceramic pieces have been on show at the Ginger Moo Gallery in Crawley and the Brighton Pavilion Gift Shop. And Curioser and Curioser in Brighton (bespoke Silver Smiths and custom jewelry makers). You can keep up with the latest pieces out of the studio by checking out facebook page dancing plates. You can also take a look at a project I was part of for Brighton City Museum at http://www.brighton-hove-rpml.org.uk/HistoryAndCollections/collectionsthemes/skintattoo/Pages/findoutmore.aspx

Alright, I´ll probably catch some flack for this again. But, I deem it pertinent to reiterate what draft picks we have on April 21st. It´s 12 meanwhile. Maybe someone wants to do the work and put the exact numeral to the draft slots.
To my knowledge, these are the picks we have at this point:
1st round
2nd round
3rd round (Braylon Edwards to the Jets)
3rd round (Kamerion Wimbley to the Raiders)
3rd round
4th round
5th round (Braylon Edwards to the Jets)
5th round (Corey Williams to the Lions)
5th round (Kellen Winslow to the Bucs)
5th round
6th round (Louis Leonard to the Panthers)
6th round
You may want to do a corresponding mock. If you can properly assess who may be available, especially towards the bottom, you deserve some props.

Jordon Ibe was snapped up by the Academy from Wycombe Wanderers at the end of 2011 and is seen as a great prospect for the future, having risen quickly through the ranks.
The talented youngster, who can play up front or out on the wing, started his Anfield career at the Academy and began life at Liverpool with the U18 squad.
The Bermondsey-born wide-man possesses a combination of phenomenal speed and powerful upper-body strength, with his growth earning a place in the first-team squad that travelled to North America on pre-season tour in 2012.
After a series of outstanding displays in the FA Youth Cup, the then 17-year-old was handed a senior debut by Brendan Rodgers on the final day of the 2012-13 season and impressed at Anfield with an energetic display which included an assist for the winning goal.
Ibe subsequently participated in a second successive tour with the Reds - this time to Indonesia, Australia and Thailand in the summer of 2013 - and once more caught the eye with performances worthy of the first team.
Now a semi-permanent fixture in the manager's matchday squads, Jordon is aiming to emulate the achievements of Raheem Sterling by establishing himself in Rodgers' plans during the years to come.
As part of that development and to further increase his experience, Ibe temporarily joined Championship side Birmingham City in February 2014 in a loan deal until the end of the campaign, helping the Blues to avoid relegation.
He travelled to America with the Reds for another pre-season summer tour ahead of the 2014-15 campaign, during which he will represent Derby County after agreeing a season-long stay at Pride Park.

OK, I guess that it is. However, this has a possibility of going down, and this is a very even trade, although it may tilt in Golden State's favor just a bit too much.
I tried this on Trade Machine, and salary-wise it works, but the link doesn't work.
Here it is:
J.R. Smith and Johan Petro to Golden State
Anthony Morrow and Ronny Turiaf and Kelenna Azubuike's expiring deal and an unprotected first round draft pick to Denver.
I know that Azubuike is injured, but he's an expiring, and I'm sure we could find some value for that at the deadline. Morrow has been struggling a bit, but when he's on he is a 3-point genius, and Turiaf is a true post banger who will be back around Christmas from injury. If this is too much in GS's favor (Smith is a really good player), then I guess we could have them send us a first-rounder because we'd take on another 2 million in salary including the luxury tax (at the rate they are going, they'll be drafting pretty high). Azubuike is out for the season with the same injury that Greg Oden has, but since 'Buike had his in mid-November, he may be back in the playoffs.
Thoughts, ideas?
My trade turns a somewhat inconsistent future star and a useless bench warmer for a 3-point specialist and a guy who can play center on a fastpaced team but also hold his own in the post (he's around 255 lbs I think), and the first-rounder livens things up.
Update: After reading some of your comments, I realized that we could sup Azubuike and the draft pick for Anthony Randolph, who, as hvino said, is unpopular with Dubs. Or, we could still get the Top 8 draft pick, but then I'm not sure of the GS management would do that.


text: This morning I heard on the radio that Chris Miller say that the Wizards are waiting for Nick Young to accept his 1 year, $3.7 million qualifying offer, while his agent is reporting that Nick Young wants a multi-year deal. Now I know that many of us don't agree on how good (or bad) Nick Young is, but I'm wondering if this strategy is smart. I mean I look at it as if either you want the guy or you don't. If he wants a multi-year deal then why not low ball it with a 4 year, $20 million deal or something of that nature. At least then you have leverage because you can match any deal that tops that up until a certain point. If the Wizards are just that uncertain about him as a long term solution then why are we even pursuing him? Why not spend the time to go after Reggie Williams or Arron Afflalo? To me, I would think if you really want this guy you would want to make sure you have a deal wrapped up and get him in training camp so that he is ready for the season. Do you all agree? Should Grunfield be using a different strategy to get Nick Young?

On the event of Matt Wieters' first major league home run, here is a little known fact about Wieters: his eyesight is so good that he CAN see Russia from his house.
Meet the Mets
Johan Santana had a good bullpen session yesterday and is all set to make his next scheduled start.
Ramon Castro trade bait Lance Broadway had his first good outing in the Met farm system, allowing only 3 hits over 6+ innings.
Wilmer Flores also hit his second home run of the season.
Marlon Anderson has found a home with the Newark Bears. That's quite a stable of former Mets they've got there: Alberto Castillo, Carl Everett, Tike Redman, and Armando Benitez (by my count).
Billy Wagner says that he will be able to return to the Mets in 30 days. Wagner would be a welcome help to Pedro Feliciano.
Around the NL East
Shockingly, Charlie Manuel did not select Jerry Manuel as a coach to join him at the All-Star Game.
The Red Sox smacked the Marlins, 6-1, to help Brad Penny to his 100th win. Dustin Pedroia had 3 RBI.
Marlin infielder Wes Helms goes on the record as saying that the Hall of Fame should ban steroid users.
The Blue Jays help the Mets again, thumping the Phillies 7-1. Jamie Moyer was not good again, allowing 6 runs on 10 hits in 6 innings. Despite the Met loss, they remain 3 games behind Philadelphia.
The Nationals, behind New York native John Lannan, beat the Yankees 3-2.
Javier Vazquez went the distance for the Braves, but still lost to the Reds 4-3 in Cincinnati. Jay Bruce hit his 16th and pitcher Micah Owings his 2nd for the Reds.
Around MLB
Congratulations Mike Carp. With the injury to Erik Bedard, the Mariners have called up Carp from triple-A where he was hitting .299. He will get the start today at first base.
Also, congratulations to Ivan Rodriguez, who has now caught more games than anyone in baseball history.
The Blue Jays have put Roy Halladay and closer Scott Downs on the DL. Ouch.
Speaking of DL, Mike Hampton is hurt again.
The US House of Representatives will investigate whether Sammy Sosa lied under oath at infamous steroid hearing.

In yet another case of local interpretation of federal regulations, at the Long Beach, Calif., Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) FAA inspectors have decided that contract pilots cannot fly for different Part 135 operators without undergoing full initial training on each aircraft that they fly.
Military aviation occupations
College majors and career opportunities don't always match up. Students have always majored in subjects that have few job prospects. Take philosophy, for example. Every year students major in philosophy, yet I can't recall ever seeing a help wanted ad for a philosopher.
"Remember those airline pilots who got caught flying drunk?"
"They went to jail, didn't they?"
"What a bunch of losers."
Not long after Capt. Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger helped restore the good name of the piloting profession with his extraordinary water landing in the Hudson River, a pair of Northwest Airlines pilots did their part to remind the general public of its shortcomings with perhaps an equally extraordinary act of distraction while flying 144 passengers between San Diego and Minneapolis.
Aviation has always been a tightly knit and closed society. We have our own language, ethical standards and barriers to entry so formidable it's a wonder that people make the effort to become pilots, mechanics, controllers, flight attendants, airplane builders and so on.
The U.S. House of Representatives passed sweeping legislation last month that could profoundly affect how regional airlines do business. H.R. 3371, the Airline Safety and Pilot Training Improvement Act of 2009, passed the House by a vote of 409 to 11.
Scottsdale, Ariz.-based Worldwide Jet has expanded its online training program with a customized module developed by Advanced Aircrew Academy (Booth No. 1932). The South Carolina-based training company also announced that Charter First, a division of Minneapolis-based Petters Aviation, replaced its Web-based Part 135 training program with an Advanced Aircrew program.
Now, after being somewhat dormant on the subject for a number of years, the Federal Aviation Administration has expressed concern about airline pilot duty days, which according to the Federal Aviation Regulations allow for a 16-hr duty day with no more than eight hours flying time.
Eclipse Aviation introduced an in-house mandatory training program for customers of its Eclipse 500 very light twinjet that includes pilot qualification and supplemental training by the University of North Dakota aerospace department. Jet-transition and type-rating courses will be provided free of charge with each Eclipse 500 purchased. A mandatory type-training admission evaluation will cost between $500 and $750.
During the heyday of small-airplane manufacturing in the mid- to late 1970s, factories in Wichita, Lock Haven and Vero Beach built tens of thousands of airplanes, and every one of them somehow had to find its way from the conclusion of the production flight-test process into the hands of an owner or dealer.

'Big Data World', Europe conference in London – Free complimentary pass
I am delighted to have been invited to speak at the Big Data World, Europe conference in London, on the 19th and 20th September taking place at ETC St Paul's. I just wanted to briefly introduce the event, its line up and also announce that the organisers have kindly provided me with a free complimentary pass to the whole event, worth around £1500, to allocate to one of my readers.
The intention behind this event is very neatly expressed by its tag line 'How to store, analyse and use data – for all businesses' so there should be something for everybody. The programme of talks is structured around three separate streams: 'Store it', 'Analyse it' and 'Use it'.
I will be presenting on day one in the afternoon. My talk will be titled 'Understanding learning in order to implement efficient visualisation methods' and will cover:
- Examining what data visualisation is attempting to achieve
- Assessing how lessons learnt from psychology can be applied to improve visualisation methods
- Understanding how visualisation can provide a more balanced assessment of data, overcoming the natural bias that collecting your own data incurs
- Building visualisation techniques upon a psychological framework to ensure they work better with human mental representation and visual processes
Apart from the sheer thrill of seeing me on stage, there is a wonderful line up of speakers and notable organisations, it really is impressive list of some of the world's most important companies spanning all sectors.
Win a Free Pass!
So how are you going to get there? Well, if you want to register you can do so here or, if you want to hang on, I have a complimentary pass valid for both days of the event, including the evening drinks reception on the 19th September. As I said above these are worth a great deal so if you do want to attend it will be a nice bonus for you!
To keep things simple I'm going to run a simple prize draw so, if you're interested in the free pass, email me email@example.com with your name and details and I'll then pull out a randomly selected name at 16:00 (BST) on Thursday 16th August and announce the winner.
** Update: I now have two passes to give away! Imagine the possibilities… **

The Denver Broncos have been a dominant offensive force thus far in 2013. The Oakland Raiders... well, they got a win against the Jaguars. This looked like a mismatch and a strange choice for Monday Night Football, and sure enough, it hasn't been close, with Peyton Manning throwing three touchdowns to put Denver up 27-7 at the half.
Wait, why did I just write that when I could just show you this GIF:
A picture says 1,000 words, and that slowly-zoomed in GIF of a sad Raiders fan says literally everything you could possibly want to know about this game.

Festivities at MountainFest are officially underway. The ninth annual event is one of the largest in the area, but how large is it really? The numbers are quite staggering.
In comparison, WVU's Coliseum can hold about 15,000 fans, MountainFest is expected to draw about 60,000 people, that's more than four-times as many.
"Year one we though there were a lot of people, year two, we were wowed," said MountainFest President Cliff Sutherland. "It started with about somewhere around 12,000-15,000 people, and two years ago we had a little more than 60,000."
Those 60,000 people bring a lot of money into the area, an estimated $12 million.
"$12 million is a ton of money, and it really comes right back into our area," said Cindy Coffindaffer, of the Greater Morgantown Convention and Visitors Bureau. "The thing about the economic impact and the tourism dollars in the area, is that it also helps the community and property taxes for our local residents as well."
MountainFest's impact is noticed for several days leading into, and out of the event.
Sutherland said many come early and stay late to ride and see the area.
The Morgantown CVB said the impact is similar to West Virginia University home football weekends lined up back-to-back.
"With home football games people come in either Friday night, or Saturday morning. Some leave immediately after the game or stay. With MountainFest everyone comes in around Wednesday and stays until Sunday, so it's like spreading a few football games in over that time," Coffindaffer said.
"We're filling rooms in Washington Pa., Clarksburg, West Virginia, Preston County. It's really a regional event," Sutherland added.
The event also brings in vendors from all across the country.
"I love West Virginia," said Roland "Cobra" Pinan. "The Mountains are beautiful, the people are very friendly in West Virginia, for sure."
For a full schedule of events, visit MountainFest's website.

Powder Burn Flash # 137 - Sean Monaghan
Left to Chance
by Sean Monaghan
Garry tried the lightswitch again, then stepped into the room, squinting through the dim distant streetlamp glow. Why hadn't he brought a flashlight? It had been there in the glove compartment in the car. Too late to go down and grab it now.
'Meg,' he called. 'Meg, honey, what's up with the lights?' He put the gun under his belt, against the small of his back and stretched his foot out slowly, feeling his way in. The coffee table was here somewhere, with the money taped underneath Two packs of $1000 bills, fifty in each. Sammy didn't know about it, didn't even know that Meg was involved. Well, he wasn't supposed to know, but Meg's door had been ajar, and that made Garry worried. There weren't many people living in the building now, of the forty apartments only a few were occupied. Demolition started next week, but even so she wouldn't be that casual.
His foot bumped into something. The sofa. He worked his way around, along the sofa's arm and reached out in front, touching the edge of the low table. He lifted and tipped it on its side beginning to feel his way around the underside. He turned as someone beside him moved.
Meg hear the sound of someone trying the lights. She could feel her vision coming back slowly, stars and speckles in the periphery, but it was still dark. After a moment she realised that it was after sunset already. That meant that she'd been passed out on the sofa for at least a half hour.
She bent forwards, wincing at the pain. Reaching down she could feel a stickiness across her blouse. She'd heard the shot earlier, immediately after the lights went out. She was bleeding. It must have gone across her abdomen. Not lodged in there, not a, what did the crime shows call it, a "through and through"? Just a graze. She winced again.
Someone was nearby, feeling around the table. Meg reached down the other side, looking for her purse and cell phone. She found it and flipped it open, the glow from the screen illuminating her face. The crash of another gunshot and the phone exploded in her hand.
Sammy crouched in the corner, his eyes used to the dark now. From under the window he'd watched it all. Someone had shot him in the ankle and he was stuck here. He had bound the ankle, but sat on the edges of consciousness while the sun fell. That same person had then shot Meg, when she came in, then had continued searching for the money. What they didn't know was that Sammy already had it, tucked into his waistband.
Then Garry had come in and tried the lights, but the power in the whole building was crap, so it stayed dark. Whoever it was had been ransacking Meg's bedroom, but stopped when they heard Garry come in. Then someone had shot Meg's cellphone as she'd opened it. Sammy smiled to himself. The other person was a lousy shot, Sammy's ankle, and just a flesh wound on Meg, couldn't do a kill shot, so it must have been Garry who'd shot the phone. Yes, looking for the money, whirling around surprised that Meg was right behind him on the sofa.
The sound of the shot was still ringing in Sammy's ears when the lights came on.
Garry was on his feet in an instant, gun held out in both hands, sweeping the room. Sammy whipped his gun out too, blinking. He ignored Garry and kept the gun levelled at the doorway to Meg's room.
'Garry,' Meg said. 'What are you doing?'
'I came for the money.'
'It's gone already,' she said. 'Did you shoot my phone?'
Sammy stayed as still as he could, so they wouldn't notice him as they argued. Hopefully whoever was in the room would come out and shoot Garry, then Sammy could return fire.
Someone stepped into the doorway. Sammy recognised him. Justin, Garry's brother.
'So where is it?' Justin said. Garry turned, lowering his gun.
'Where is what?'
Sammy noticed something from the corner of his eye. A demolition explosives pack, with charges and wires. Right in the corner of the room, where the floor met the outside wall. Why would a room be rigged while it was still occupied?
'The money,' Justin said.
Garry glanced at the table. 'It's gone.'
Justin, Sammy thought. Justin had planned to take the money, then blow the apartment, make it look like it was an accident, blame the demolition company. Then it would all be clean. Everyone else would think that the money was gone, destroyed in the blast.
'Smart trick, Justin,' Sammy said. All eyes turned to him, and Sammy shot Justin.
'No, no!' Garry screamed as Justin fell. He spun on Sammy. But Sammy kept his aim even and killed Garry before he could get a shot off.
'Thank you,' Meg said as Garry collapsed to the floor. 'Now let's get out of here.'
Sammy got to his good foot and hobbled over to the sofa. Meg's wound was pretty bad, he was surprised she hadn't bled out yet. She was pale and drawn.
She saw the look on his face. 'Not just a graze, is it?'.
'If we could get you to an ambulance ...' he trailed off, looked down at his shattered ankle. 'I'll use your phone to call Alex. He can come and pick us up.'
'My phone is wrecked,' she said.
Sammy heard a click and looked over again, at the explosive pack, this time seeing the timer. Oh Justin, he thought, never leaving anything to chance.

Welcome Beth Oliver and thank you for sharing your experiences as a Maine Ghost Hunter Member. Lina, thank you for asking me to do this interview. I love sharing my experiences with ghost hunting and the paranormal. Beth, how did you originally become interested in this field? I've always had an interest in the paranormal. […]Read this post

This is a new feature. We will look at what Florida State's coaching staff said following last week's game and then read into it entirely too much. Oh, and we have fun graphs that will make you lose your appetite (so if you have great lunch plans, don't read this until you get back). A big thanks to those readers who graciously transcribed the press conferences.
Here's the video of Bowden's post-game comments. If you can't watch it because your work disables or disallows video, I transcribed the relevant portions for you. When you get angry about FSU losing ballgames, watch this video and tell yourself FSU is paying this old man $2.5 Million to lead and coach its football team. What does this man do for his $2.5 Million?
Spiller was the difference in the ballgame. Spiller was the one guy who made the biggest difference in my opinion.
This is a theme. He says things before he thinks, then if they sound good to him, he repeats them. This works well if you're not on camera.
Our problem was turnovers, turnovers, turnovers. I was concerned last week when our quarterback was not able to practice he didn't practice. Wasn't throwin'. And when I was interviewed yesterday by ABC or whoever, uh, the guys, uh, at interviewed me, (Todd) Blackledge and them. I told them one thing I was concerned about was will I would he lose his timing from not throwin' much so.
Interesting, considering Clemson had drives of 80, 76, 73, 72, 73 and 48 yards. They had 218 yards in the first half on 33 plays (6.7 per snap) and 275 in the 2nd half on 31 plays (8.9 per snap). For the game, they had 493 yards on 64 plays, which is a ridiculous 7.7 yards per play allowed by the Florida State defense. And the trend continues as FSU has again allowed another team to post their best offensive game of the season:
I took the liberty of adding them to our handy chart (click to enlarge).
Clemson left 8 points on the board by way of 2 missed field goals and 3 missed extra points (it's 8 and not 9 because a 2-point conversion made up for one of the missed extra points).
Here's what you have to remember. Every team Florida State has played, has posted their best offensive game of the year, against Florida State. Miami's best offensive game was FSU. BYU's? FSU. USF? FSU. BC? FSU. GT? FSU. UNC? FSU. NCST? FSU. Clemson? FSU
Okay, back to Bowden...
But uh I wouldn't take a thing away from Clemson. They won, they deserved to win, they made more big plays than we did.
Yeah, and they had a better day against the 'Noles than they did against Coastal Carolina. Or anyone else for that matter. Then we go back to Bowden not knowing the score...
We hung with 'em for how long? 3, 3, 2 1/2 quarters, somethin like that? and uh then uh Clemson won the ballgame.
Seriously, you are the head coach and you are paid $2.5 Million dollars. Know what happened in the damn game you supposedly just coached. Don't waste all your time thinking about how to deflect from the disastrous overrides you made in the game that led to turnovers by the offense and big plays for Clemson's offense.
Reporter asks a question about the difference in the ballgame. Bowden responds:
Well the difference in it was turnovers.
Again, no reasonable person expected FSU to drop big points on Clemson. But it was perfectly reasonable for people to expect any defense to hold Clemson to less than 480 yards (490 if you don't give the defense credit for kneel-downs!). It wasn't turnovers. Clemson had drives of 80, 76, 73, 72, 73 and 48 yards. They had 218 yards in the first half on 33 plays (6.7 per snap) and 275 in the 2nd half on 31 plays (8.9 per snap). For the game, they had 493 yards on 64 plays, which is a ridiculous 7.7 yards per play allowed by the Florida State defense.
Where would you rank Spiller in relation to the greats you've had?
Where would I rank him? He'd be up there. You know the people who recruit those kind of guys, there the ones that's got a chance to win national championships. Cause it's people like him that can get you in there. Might have to have more than him, but he's the kind of guy who can put you on top.
FSU did recruit Spiller. If Bowden hadn't raped FSU by treating it as his own personal charity by hiring a bevy of unqualified yes-men coaches to run this once great program they'd likely have Spiller. But he made the right choice not to play for Bowden.
R: Can you talk about your different range of emotions in the ballgame tonight? I mean there were critical errors-
Oh there really were. Both of us made errors. We probably scored on some of their errors I don't know, didn't keep up, keep up with it. But uh we'd turn the ball over and they'd go down and score and uh we'd turn it over and they didn't score. Then they'd turn it over back, ya know? The game kinda went that way and ya know I we you know we felt very comfortable ya know knew it was a battle. How late was it, uh, 20 seveeee 24 to 21 our favor. How late did it get, did that get in the 4th quarter?
R: 9 1/2 minutes left.
B: Left in the game?
R: Yes.
B: So uh your your you're feeling comfortable, but you know that it ain't won yet. Then of course the dam broke.
Good God. He doesn't call plays (except when he does and they are out of rhythm and disastrous), doesn't manage the clock, doesn't recruit, doesn't lead, and now he can't even be bothered to "keep up with" the goings on in the game?
R: In the second half, when it seemed like momentum started to switch, how hard was it to try to reverse that?
B: You mean when they got it (momentum)? Well, actually, you know, they had to kick off to us. We had a what? A three-point ? Did we have the lead at the half? (affirmation off camera)
B: We had a three-point lead at the half. I think. Then they had to kick off to us. We needed to take it down and win the darn win the game right there. We didn't do it. They stopped us. Then we kicked it to them and then they probably scored.
R: They went ahead and then you guys came back
B: Huh?
R: They went ahead and then you guys came back again.
B: Did we score get ahead of them again after that?
R: Yeah.
B: Then we got back ahead, huh? Umm, uh, it was going that way, you know it? I felt very comfortable that uh that if they could score, we could score. That's the way I felt, you know it? We've done it all year. And uh and uh but they But then we started turning the ball over. Turning the ball over:
No coach, I'm sure the reporter wanted to know how hard it was to reverse your own momentum you had from scoring. They "probably scored"? Really? Then he doesn't even know that the other team came back and scored. So what does he do? He falls back on a football cliche that sounds good in his dementia riddled head, "turnovers, turning the ball over."
What did you think of Jermaine Thomas' performance tonight?
Must have been pretty good. What did he get? (100 yards). It's hard to do that 2 times in a row. Cause people set up set yo get ya.
The media is no longer babying Bobby.
They are done. They've finally stopped helping out Bobby. If you didn't know, the media always babys him and if they didn't, he would appear to the public like he appears to those who interview him, which is as a confused old man. He is 80 years old and from Alabama. Racist or not, how long until he drops an n-bomb or says "colored"? Ever hang out with someone 80 years of age? They have no filter. They say whatever comes to their mind.
I was at media day and Bowden just stumbled all over himself, even after people lobbed softballs at him. They media has routinely asked him questions and he'd respond with something largely unrelated and they would just go with whatever he said or patiently wait for him to finish and then rephrase. Or they'd basically turn it into a yes/ no question and nod their heads to help coach FSU's coach.
Why aren't they helping him? Perhaps they are trying to get on Fisher's good side? Perhaps they can sense that supporting the guy who is actively making it tough for the competent coaches left on staff to do their job is a poor idea. Or maybe they just realize he is out and don't care.
Mickey Andrews Press Conference
Even though the score is not indicative, we played one of our best games of the season against Clemson. Effort was good and guys were in position to make plays.
I would say that the score is not indicative because it doesn't reflect that Clemson left 8 points on the board by way of 2 missed field goals and 3 missed extra points (it's 8 and not 9 because a 2-point conversion made up for one of the missed extra points).
I think the score is very reflective that FSU's defense played worse than the defense of Coastal Carolina, and that it again allowed another opponent (as it has in every game this season) to post their best offensive game of the year:
So no, Mickey, we are not fooled. Your defense played horribly. Clemson had drives of 80, 76, 73, 72, 73 and 48 yards. They had 218 yards in the first half on 33 plays (6.7 per snap) and 275 in the 2nd half on 31 plays (8.9 per snap). For the game, they had 493 yards on 64 plays, which is a ridiculous 7.7 yards per play allowed by the Florida State defense.
Big plays were because of poor angles by the defense.
And poor recognition. And a lack of understanding as brought on by poor coaching.
Defense still lacks discipline from play to play.
I have to say I am shocked by this. Shocked I tell you.
"We prepare for sudden change sittuations but we did a poor job against Clemson."
This is a clever shot at the offense. Not that they didn't do a poor job, but it is pretty clever.
"We were able to make three red-zone stops and those are positives and things to build off of."
Ridiculous claim. We know that red zone defense, when it is much better than actual defense, is anomalous and not repeatable.
"The last quarter got away from us and Clemson did enough to beat us." "At the end of the day the mistakes cost us this football game."
Actually, he's wrong here again... Let's look at Clemson's yards by quarter:
1st: 19 plays for 93 yards.
2nd: 14 plays for 125 yards
3rd: 14 plays for 152 yards
4th: 13 plays for 100 yards.
Yep, sucks when people can review the performance and look at what actually happened.
"By and large there were enough things encouraging. But we need to have a better week this week against Wake this week."
His standards have become impossibly low.
"Patrick Robinson played well. He dropped a interception but he played very well." Also complimented Jamie Robinson
Robinson is still a 1st round pick. Jamie did a nice job catching one of the worst thrown balls I have ever seen.
"Spiller is good enough to change the game on one play"
Yeah especially when you single cover him with #29 Kendall Smith (MLB).
"Nigel Bradham is getting better each week. He is studying the game more and it is impressive to see the progress that he is making."
This is good to see. Nigel is going to be a blessing for whoever FSU gets for DC.
"The players are not playing for me they are playing for each other. They are playing for us."
"We challenged them to play for the spear on their helmet. They don't need to downgrade it they need to honor it."
The players have always played hard this year. This was a response to a question regarding the player's desire to be motivated for Andrews.
"Wake is a much different team than we played last year. This year they are playing more 11 or 12 personell. They have some skill players just not as many as they did last year."
"You know Wake is going to give you the rocket or slingshot motion."
"You have to be on your toes with Wake. They are well coached and they always play you very tough. There is not one game this season that we have played a team that hasn't had a good quarterback. We have another tough challenge this week with Skinner."
And then he talked about how they are very multiple (formations) this year.
Wake's offense could only score 3 on Clemson and needed overtime to hit 27 against Georgia Tech. Seriously, Mickey is setting you up with excuses for another terrible game.
"Jimbo will get E.J. coached up and I will be surprised if he doesn't play very well. We will do everything on defense we can to help him."
Many wish you would just play the young players and help FSU get ready for a season in which they might be good again.
"Wake is very well coached and they compete and that is a tough combination."
A combination we don't see for FSU.
Nick Moody has an injured shoulder.
I think he'd be better with one arm than Korey Mangum is with two.
Mickey hasn't wanted to be here for two years and nobody can blame him.
Jimbo Fisher
Fisher expects Ponder should be back in time for spring.
That seems to be the concensus.
EJ is very tough and he was fine and tough during the Clemson game.
And Wake's defense is not as good as Clemson's.
Ryan Becker (walk on from St. Thomas) will be the backup.
Becker signals in the plays. They don't want to burn Secord's redshirt.
I'm excited for EJ. For him to have an opportunity to play. I think he will handle it well. He is a mature young man. EJ has progressed a bunch, including his consistency. He has leadership, toughness, character. He represents and embodies what you want in a studen-athlete. You can picture him leading your football team. (Coach Fisher of what he saw in EJ when recruiting him).
I think everyone likes EJ and did as well in recruiting. He can be a great one for FSU, but this is still his first start.
You have to play smart, intelligent football and make sacrifices to have a chance to win (Coach Fisher on what FSU needs to remember when trying to win).
Physical stature. Size does matter. He is big and athletic. Big guys don't move like he does. I saw a winner in him. (Coach Fisher on EJ Manuel). EJ can be a great player, and I think he will be in the future (Coach Fisher comments on EJ).
I think Fisher will run the heck out of EJ against Wake.
Coach Fisher on Christian's year: 'He was 11 of 13 at half'. How sharp he played was amazing because of his lack of practice. He's played as well, with the amount of workload given to him, as anybody I've had. He was playing so well. When he was in the game, we always had a chance to win the game. Christian embodies what you preach as a coach. Be on time. Go to school. He does all those things, and you want guys to have his character. He practices, studies film even during in the off season, and you want him to have success because all he does with what he has.
And he's back for next year in all likelihood and was playing better than any QB in a long long time.
Much like Caz Piurowski did with Bo Reliford, Christian will room with E.J. on the road to help him if he needs it.
This is smart. Reliford credited Caz' help for his performance against UNC.
Jermaine Thomas ran really hard but did miss a few cuts. Fisher was satisfied.
Thomas should also have fresh legs because he didn't play much earlier in the year.
Rodney Hudson continues to play very well and did a great job on Jenkins/ Thompson
Let's hope he doesn't go pro. I expect him to stay because he needs to get bigger.
Fisher is worried about Hurricane Ida taking practice time.
This is a dig at the boosters to get him an indoor practice facility.
Then Fisher said that Wake lost a lot in the secondary but that their defensive line is very good.
It's actually just average. If Fisher really likes something he will say that it is excellent or tremendous or that they will "play on Sundays".
And then Christian spoke but all he said was that he hates to be injured like this, looks forward to spring ball and having a good rehab, and has confidence in EJ.

Decatur - Three students from MacArthur celebrated the end of breast cancer awareness month with a big donation.
The trio raised 11-hundred dollars by creating and selling their own t-shirts for Breast Cancer Awareness. Brad Munos couldn't believe how fast the shirts sold. "They sold fairly fast, we sold 63 t-shirts in just three days."
The money will go to St. Mary's Hospital.
Valerie Jordan of St. Mary's Hospital told WAND glad to see their effort to help the community, "they were able to think outside of their world into something bigger and make a bigger effect in the community.
Over 70 t-shirts were sold in the community.

8:00 AM - 9:00 AM Help us collate the white packets for Gomes
8:30 AM - 9:30 AM Back-to-School Coffee
7:45 PM - 8:45 PM Back to School Teacher Breakfast
August 21, 2014
As the school year comes to a close and Gomes gets to the CORE of things, I have to say that we have outstanding school programs and a dedicated staff which continue to bring praise and recognition to our school. But, I also want to thank the Gomes parents and families for your support and service to students of Gomes. Thank you for demonstrating to your child how important school is by taking the time off from your important work and busy schedule to volunteer. Thank you for being a partner instilling a love of learning and investing in your student's future.
I just read about a world leader who said, "A school is not a 'parking garage', where parents simply drop off their children. It is a place of encounter along our journey. At school, we are 'socialized'. We meet people who are different from us, different in age, culture, origin and ability. Families and school should never be in opposition, but they must work together for the good of the child. Schools educate us about truth, goodness and beauty, which all go together."
Gomes has been recognized again, this year, as a California Distinguished School. Gomes is a distinguished place where many distinguished people share their love for children. Thank you to all for making Gomes a distinguished school.
- Mr. Whipple

The amount of plastic in one sea turtle is truly depressing, but it is good to see that plastic pollution is getting more press so more people can learn of the damage it is doing to our oceans and the creatures that live in them.
What can 28,000 rubber duckies lost at sea teach us about our oceans?
A shipping container filled with rubber duckies was lost at sea in 1992, and the bath toys are still washing ashore today.
Depicts 2.4 million pieces of plastic, equal to the estimated number of pounds of plastic pollution that enter the world's oceans every hour. All of the plastic in this image was collected from the Pacific Ocean
Marine plastic pollution shows us that we cannot really throw anything "away." Reducing, reusing, and recycling is the best way to stem the tide of plastics into our oceans. Here are some specific steps you can take to cut down on your use and protect our oceans.
1. Cut disposable plastics out of your routine. Simple alternatives include bringing your own bag to the store, choosing reusable items wherever possible, and purchasing plastic with recycled content.
2. Recycle. When you need to use plastic, be sure that it is properly effective, after you've reused it. Each piece of plastic recycled is one less piece of waste that could end up in our oceans.
3. Take Responsibility. Whether you represent yourself, a business, or a government, know how much you are contributing to the problem of plastic pollution.

Plastic pollution
Various sources
SOUP by Mandy Barker is a description given to plastic debris suspended in the sea, and with particular reference to the mass accumulation that exists
in an area of The North Pacific Ocean known as the Garbage Patch.
The series of images aim to engage with, and stimulate an emotional
response in the viewer by combining a contradiction between initial
aesthetic attraction and social awareness. The sequence reveals a
narrative concerning oceanic plastics from initial attraction and
attempted ingestion, to the ultimate death of sea creatures and
representing the disturbing statistics of dispersed plastics having
no boundaries.
All the plastics photographed have been salvaged from beaches
around the world and represent a global collection of debris that
has existed for varying amounts of time in the world's oceans.
There Is An Estimated Over 3.5 Million Tons Of Trash In The Great Pacific Garbage Patch.
Eliminate Some Of The Waste By Recycling And Using Reusable Items.

This is a snarky one, folks. Jesse Cannon, the man behind Cannon Found Soundation Recording Studios (Man Overboard, The Menzingers, Transit, Lifetime) and Musformation, is back for a brand new Industry feature in our ongoing series. In this week's feature, Jesse hits the nail on the head on Emily White, deadmau5, Bandcamp, royalties, and much more. Read up on all of it below!
Emily White, Oh Emily White…The NPR intern that launched one million musician's tears and a thousand Tumblr posts ranting about the music business. If you were lucky enough to be spending your summer outside having fun, graduating instead of living my life in a windowless room reading blogs, you may have missed that an NPR intern penned an article where she admitted she has barely ever bought music and has illegally downloaded her whole life. This made many old people sad in the music business who struggle to understand the youngins. The article is a great read and the debate it sparked is fun, but trust me you don't want to read the comments section for too long if you value not hearing old men waving their cane for hours on end about how the kids of today with their Spotifies are going to ruin the world. Just like dubbing cassetes was 30 years ago, we saw how that one worked out Grandpa.
Remember the big, fat, WEIRD guy Kim Dotcom who looked like a super hero's nemesis come to life that ran MegaUpload.com? He's baaaaacccckkk. This time he wants to launch a streaming music service (with the pornotastic named MEGABOX), and despite the fact that the police seized all his money he somehow has gotten this service off the ground? Well, to be honest we don't know if it will ever reach the public, but the service does sound kinda cool It enables artists to sell or give away their own music and keep 90% of the profits. While this all sounds cool, can you really trust this guy?
SUCKERS!?!?!? Or are you? That's right Deadmau5 has admitted he is basically just hitting play on his live sets. Meaning that every guitar wielding asshole who complains that electronic music shows are boring and not real performances are sadly a little right for once in their cranky lives. The mouse posted a blog where he gave really interesting reasons and also hit on a point we all have known for a long time - these shows are about the drugs, vibe, visuals and energy way more than they are about any performance. Just remember his BFF is Skrillex and start wiping the tears out of your eyes that when he's whipping his hair back and forth like Willow Smith with a hair cut only a blind mother can love, he can do so cause it's just one button being pushed at the start of the set.
Remember the days when MySpace was cool and you used to spend all day flat ironing your hair and discovering cool new bands? They are back, but hopefully you don't go back to looking like a silly budget transexual and taking pictures in the mirror again like you did in those days. Bandcamp has launched a really cool tool that will now help you discover whatever you want on their platform! This can help you discover other cool bands from the genres you like or just cool vinyl packages to buy where the band members sign the record on their own blood and other stuff that is way too hardcore for anyone reading this site. Check it the hell out.
LIGHTS performed "Raise Your Weapon" with Deadmau5 at The 2012 Juno Awards. Check out the performance below by clicking "Read More."

New Orleans, La. -- As two drummers dressed in ethnic garb played at the entrance to Champions Square, Southern and Grambling fans moved about vendor tables.
At downtown hotels, thousands of fans were rolling in for a weekend of music, food and, of course, football rivalry.
"We actually came down yesterday to do Thanksgiving for the first time and we enjoyed it," said Grambling fan Leon Smith.
The Grambling Tigers beat the Southern Jaguars last year and GSU fans are looking for the same kind of play Saturday.
"I expect a repeat," said Grambling fan Linda Woodard.
"Basically, the records are out the door. It's about pride, honor and dignity right now," stated Dwight Moore, another Grambling fan.
But Southern University fans say it is a new year and a time for the Jaguars to redeem themselves in the Bayou Classic game.
"Oh, we're going to win this year, that's for sure," said Emerson Bell. He and his wife Sherry are staunch Southern fans -- so loyal that they traveled from California for the game.
"We feel like we have a very good chance of winning this year," said Sherry Bell.
Other Southern fans feel the same.
"It is our year, it's time. Southern is going to win the game and win the Battle of Bands," said Janice Monson of Atlanta as she walked towards Champions Square.
On Canal Street, NOPD's mobile command vehicles and security towers are positioned to help fans feel secure. As usual, law enforcement held a news conference Friday to encourage safe driving.
"We're combining a big celebration, Thanksgiving, with another great event and that's Bayou Classic. And this is a time, of course, that people tend to party a little bit, but we want to remind everyone to be safe, be cautious. Also, don't drink and drive," said Orleans Parish Sheriff Marlin Gusman.
The Bayou Classic is so popular that some people actually use the event as their annual family reunion.
"It is a reunion because half of my family graduated from Grambling and the other half graduated from Southern, so it's kind of like all of us meet down [here], some come from California, Texas," stated Monson.
"This is probably about my 20th Bayou Classic. I'm a proud returning fan," said Moore.
And fans of the team defeated the previous year are itching for a win and a year's worth of bragging rights.
"We're going to win this year, we are going to win this year," said Southern fan Korell Cooper.

The Patron Saint of Liars
Sadness, passion, faith, and laughter fill a home for unwed mothers. Set at St. Elizabeth's in Habit, Kentucky, this is the story of Rose, an obstinate, complex young woman fleeing her first marriage who seeks temporary sanctuary but instead finds a permanent place among the nuns when she decides to keep her child and marry the groundskeeper.
John Nickel is a black ex-jazz musician who only wants to be a good father. But when his son is taken away from him, he's left with nothing but the Memphis bar he manages. Then he hires Fay, a young white waitress, who has a volatile brother named Carl in tow. Nickel finds himself consumed with the idea of Taft -- Fay and Carl's dead father -- and begins to reconstruct the life of a man he never met. But his sympathies for these lost souls soon take him down a twisting path into the lives of strangers.
The Magician's Assistant
A secretive magicians death becomes the catalyst for his partner's journey of self-discovery in this enchanting book (San Francisco Chronicle) that is something of a magic trick in itself -- a 1990s love story with the grace and charm of a nineteenth-century novel (Newsweek).
Bel Canto
Somewhere in South America, at the home of the country's vice president, a lavish birthday party is being held in honor of Mr. Hosokawa, a powerful Japanese businessman. Roxanne Coss, opera's most revered soprano, has mesmerized the international guests with her singing. It is a perfect evening -- until a band of gun-wielding terrorists breaks in through the air-conditioning vents and takes the entire party hostage. But what begins as a panicked, life-threatening scenario slowly evolves into something quite different, as terrorists and hostages forge unexpected bonds and people from different countries and continents become compatriots.
Truth & Beauty
In her critically acclaimed memoir, Autobiography of a Face, Lucy Grealy wrote about the first half of her life. Here, the story isn't Lucy's life or Ann's life but the parts of their lives they shared together. This is a portrait of unwavering commitment that spans 20 years. Through love, fame, drugs and despair, this is what it means to be part of two lives that are intertwined. It's a tender, brutal book about loving the person we cannot save. It is about loyalty and about being lifted up by the sheer effervescence of someone who knew how to live life to the fullest.
Additional Recommended Reading
Autobiography of a Face
Lucy Grealy
At age nine, Lucy Grealy was diagnosed with a potentially terminal cancer. When she returned to school with a third of her jaw removed, she faced the cruel taunts of classmates. In this strikingly candid memoir, Grealy tells her story of great suffering and remarkable strength without sentimentality and with considerable wit. Vividly portraying the pain of peer rejection and the guilty pleasures of wanting to be special, Grealy captures with unique insight what it is like as a child and young adult to be torn between two warring impulses: to feel that more than anything else we want to be loved for who we are, while wishing desperately and secretly to be perfect.
To Kill a Mockingbird
Harper Lee
At the age of eight, Scout Finch is an entrenched free-thinker. Her wise lawyer father, Atticus, is a man of unfaltering good will and humor, and partly because of this, the children become involved in some disturbing adult mysteries: fascinating Boo Radley, who never leaves his house; the terrible temper of Mrs. Dubose down the street; the fine distinctions that make the Finch family "quality"; the forces that cause the people of Maycomb to show compassion in one crisis and unreasoning cruelty in another.
The Secret Life of Bees
Sue Monk Kidd
Living on a peach farm in South Carolina with her harsh, unyielding father, Lily Owens' only real companion is the fierce-hearted black woman, Rosaleen, who acts as her "stand-in mother." When Rosaleen insults three of the deepest racists in town, Lily knows it's time to spring them both free. They take off to another town, where they are taken in by an eccentric trio of black beekeeping sisters named May, June, and August. Lily thinks of them as the calendar sisters and enters their mesmerizing secret world of bees and honey, and of the Black Madonna who presides over this household of strong, wise women. Maternal loss and betrayal, guilt and forgiveness entwine in a story that leads Lily to the single thing her heart longs for most.
The Human Stain
Philip Roth
It is 1998, the year in which America is whipped into a frenzy of prurience by the impeachment of a president, and in a small New England town, an aging classics professor, Coleman Silk, is forced to retire when his colleagues decree that he is a racist. The charge is a lie, but the real truth about Silk would have astonished even his most virulent accuser.

My aunt and uncle, both high school graduates with no college education, had nine kids and helped the ones who wanted to go to college pay for their education.
Many of the nine children now hold professional positions such as financial planner and nursing supervisor. They are all successful adults, and some make very good salaries.
My aunt and uncle were able to help pay a portion of their children's college costs despite the fact that my uncle worked in a factory for a number of years while my aunt was a homemaker.

This will mark MacDonald's second-straight fight in Seattle and on FOX. He defeated B.J. Penn via unanimous decision at UFC on FOX 5 in December. "Ares" was scheduled to fight his rival Carlos Condit at UFC 158, but he pulled out of the fight due to a neck and back injury. The 23-year-old, who grew up in nearby British Columbia, Canada, has won his last four fights in a row.
Ellenberger, 28, is coming off a thrilling first-round knockout of Nate Marquardt at UFC 158 last month. That win marked his second in a row and eighth in his last nine fights.
UFC on FOX 8 will take place at Key Arena, site of UFC on FOX 5.

GoldenTree's Fund Group Ready to Go Solo
GoldenTree Asset Management is spinning off its real estate fund group.
The unit, GoldenTree InSite Partners, will start operating independently next month under the name GTIS Partners. GoldenTree Asset, a hedge fund manager and high-yield investor based in New York, will retain a minority interest, but won't invest any equity in two funds that GTIS plans to roll out.
The spinoff was envisioned when the fund group was formed five years ago under the direction of Tom Shapiro and Josh Pristaw. GoldenTree Asset founder Steve Tananbaum agreed that a spinoff could occur once the group reached $1 billion of third-party equity under management. The unit, which has set up two funds, recently hit that threshold.
New York-based GTIS will immediately turn its attention to launching two more opportunity funds: a $600 million vehicle targeting property investments in Brazil and a $300 million vehicle focused on residential plays in the U.S. GTIS would kick in 1.5% of the equity for each.
The Brazil vehicle, GTIS Partners Brazil Real Estate Fund 2, would seek an 18% return by teaming up with local operating partners to develop and redevelop Brazilian properties, with a focus on the office and residential sectors.
The initial $510 million fund in the series closed last year and is about 80% invested. Investors were told recently that it is on track to produce a return of about 25%. GoldenTree set up a $30 million co-investment vehicle in April to participate in a $90 million acquisition. The two vehicles bought a 50% stake in a Sao Paolo condominium development called Serido. That investment has a 40% projected return.
GTIS is charging a 1.6-2.0% management fee, depending on amount of equity committed. After investors receive a 12% preferred return, GTIS is entitled to 60% of profits until it amasses 20% of cumulative distributions. It then would get 20% of any additional profits.
The U.S. vehicle, GTIS U.S. Residential Strategies, will provide financing to U.S. home builders and buy distressed residential parcels. It follows on one of the strategies undertaken by GoldenTree InSite Real Estate Opportunities Fund 1, a $508 million opportunity fund that closed in 2007 and is about 80% invested. That fund, which also can invest in Europe and South America, has focused exclusively on U.S. residential plays since September. It has teamed up with partners to buy 20,000 single-family lots, condominium units and single-family houses in Arizona, Florida, Illinois and Texas.
GTIS U.S. Residential Strategies is designed to move quickly. It will have a two-year investment period - half of the typical timeframe. The sponsor is charging a 1.5% management fee. The profit split would be the same as for the Brazil fund, except that the preferred return is 10%.
Marketing will be overseen by Richard Cohen, who joined the team in April as a managing director. He was previously an equity-raising specialist at Morgan Stanley Real Estate.
Before forming GoldenTree InSite, Shapiro was a senior executive at New York-based Tishman Speyer for 17 years, and Pristaw spent six years as a principal and co-head of acquisitions at Coventry Real Estate Advisors of New York. At GTIS, they will retain their current titles: Shapiro is president and chief investment officer, and Pristaw is senior managing director.

How to create multilingual site?
8 July 2011 at 7:56pm Last edited: 8 July 2011 8:45pm
There are more than 1000 search results for multi-lingual site but neither of them actually explain how to create the whole site in more than one languages.
I read tutorials related to i18n and translatable and tried several different ways but neither of them was completely successful - every time there was something that could not be translated or in the worst case I had to create new page and data types for every language.
One more issue is that Translatable will be removed from core SilverStripe v3! I know that it will exist as a module, but really great and modern CMS such as SS without core translation support... well, I can't imagine that. Please consider that it is one of the main requests from clients, especially in Europe and non-English spoken countries and there is a need having site in at least one foreign language.
So, my question is:
- What is the official way to create and handle site in several different languages (that assumes that every part of the site could be translated, even DataObjects)?
Thank you

Hi MitraX,
This might help...
Also it's all in the book, also read to the end of the comments... for translated widgets too!

One more issue is that Translatable will be removed from core SilverStripe v3! I know that it will exist as a module, but really great and modern CMS such as SS without core translation support... well, I can't imagine that.
By moving it to a module we actually plan on supporting it more. By removing it from core we can keep that light and quick for people who only use one languahe, but have developers focused on supporting the module, extending it. Also we've found by separating it out, it makes it easier for people to contribute to and we can release new versions of the module outside of releasing a whole new SS version.
Please note that the module is only for Translatable and not i18n - i18n will still be backed into the core.

Guys, thank you for the replies.
I am going to experiment following the ssbits tutorial and maybe buy the book.
If I have any question I will be free to ask ;)
