Just so you know just how bad my last couple of days have been, I spent many hours laboring over my car changing the intake manifold. Now the job is not all that complicated, but for some reason a left handed engineer (this is not any kind of code for anything - I believe left handed engineers are determined to get back at the rest of the world) decided to have one bracket that is nearly impossible to remove and re-install. I know that 65% of my time working on this project was spent on that one bracket. By the way the job turned out just fine, however as an old guy that cannot do Yoga moves to loosen said bracket I am still in pain as I write this. To top it off, my wife's car's cooling fan decided to quit working. No one had one in stock so I get to play the waiting game of having one ordered.
This all after the Sunday nighmare game we watched.
Anyway, that frustration is likely nothing like that of some of the Texans players. So here to this week's "Thingy"
Before our game I saw these comments said about the Browns Special Teams:
Antho10000: If only we had Special Teams like that....
The Night Owl: I can't believe I'm jealous of the Browns
But I'm sure we'd kill to have a special teams unit like theirs
A quote after the game:
What did you tell the team afterwards? (Asking Coach Kubiak)
"Just - it's got to be rock bottom. The sad thing is, it looked the same. It's been heading in that direction from the standpoint of us turning the ball over and getting in those situations as a football team that we can't dig ourselves out of. It's got to stop. Hell, it has to. There's no way you can win in this league helping people out. "
Just because:
by OneManBlitz :
I just want to be included in the BRB story that shows snippets of gameday thread posts
Do I send $5 to someone, or just lift my shirt and show what I got going on under the hood Mardi Gras style? How do I get included on that story?
(note: no $5 was received by me)
number of questions about the pick six in the after game presser
Passes thrown by Texans QBs
Number of times Shane Lechler punted the ball (for a 50.3 yard average)
Also number of Tackles by JJ Watt, Tackles for Loss by JJ Watt and QB hits By JJ Watt
Number of Sacks by the Texans
Number of pass completions by Kaepernick , Also number of times Kaepernick was sacked (1) and hit (5), and number of tackles for loss by the Texans defense.
Turnover ratio for the Texans so far this season. This is worse than horrible.
FYI Myers bad snap to Yates is ruled a fumble on his part.
Seriously - at what point do you realize that doing the same thing over and over expecting different results quits happening? I know there are several movie examples to disprove me (Karate Kid comes to mind)
This week's Venn Diagram
(though not totally accurate - just go with it)
One Pot Recipe
4 Skinless boneless Chicken Brest halves
2 TBsp Butter
2 cans condensed cream of chicken soup
1 onion diced
2 "cans" of buscuits
Place chicken, butter, soup, and onion in a slow cooker and just cover with water (Again you can use a covered pot on the stove, just adjust the heat accordingling)
Cook 5-6 hrs on high, about 30 minutes before serving, tear up the biscuit dough from the cans into chunks and throw them into the cooker. Cook until dough is done (usually about 20-30 minutes)
This makes a tasty Chicken and dumplings. I have often used other variations of chicken, if you use some that has bones, just do the same thing, but fish out the bones with a slotted spoon or something similar before adding the dough.
When even bleach cannot help you...
Whatever you do - Stay safe!

[Note: My struggles with the visual editor continue as I can't remove the italics from the lower portion of this post. My apologies if it is difficult to read.]
So here we are, another week has passed by since our bitter loss in New Orleans. Some palettes have been swiped clean, meanwhile others still have the taste of defeat salivating in their mouths and are looking for a side of vengeance this week.
We have all set our sights on shooting the Falcons down and it seems entirely possible that we may do so. They are coming into our home and the Panthers are deep in the under-dog position, where we love to be. We all know what Carolina needs to do but I'm sure most of you are worried of what we will do, just as I am. Do we play Foxball or take flight courtesy Jeffair?
Prediction: Foxball. I think even Jeff understands what we need do now... then again, I've thought that for a while and he keeps amazing me.
Although my previous prediction (one which I still stand by), earlier in the week, has Carolina winning 20-17, the Falcons have averaged over 25 points per game this season, meanwhile our defense has given up an average of 24 per game. With that, I won't be too surprised if my prediction ends up on the lower end of the actual score.
Carolina and Atlanta enter this game giving up, on average, 122(#23) and 123(#24) yards on the ground, respectively. The biggest difference here, defensively speaking, is Carolina's 6th ranked pass defense versus Atlanta's 26th. That seems pretty significant...
Until you look on the other side of the ball... With Jake yet to find himself this season (bravo on two interception-free games - it's like he's in rehab for QB's, one step at a time), the Falcons may not need anything more than a 26th ranked pass defense to keep Delhomme in check today.
That brings us to the question: which Jake will we see today? Will we all be pleasantly surprised to see the re-emergence of Ol' Jake or will we get another dose of Jake "Oops, wrong team" Delhomme?
Prediction: Jake Delhomme - 200+ yards, 1 TD, 0 INT
As I write this, there is a small voice in the back of my mind asking "An entire game with no interceptions? Are you sure?". Yes, fellow Panther fans, I am sure. Two weeks clean now, I think Delhomme can finally kick the habit this week!
So, I gave'em 'one of them-there elusi-fy-ing touchdowns' but who's going to be the lucky recipient of these rare gifts? Follow me off of the ledge here, bringing in touchdown number two of the season, it's going to be the mighty, mighty Steve Smith! Something's going to piss him off and we all know what happens when Steve Smith gets angry.
Prediction: Steve Smith - 100+ yards, 1 TD
Who accounts for the other 100? I'm looking for Jarrett to catch a few but overall I see Barnidge and Rosario, if he plays, being the other outlets.
That takes care of the ailing side of things but what about the meat of our offense? That has been a prominent question running through my mind daily as I've followed Williams' practices (or lack of, I suppose). My opinions are split here, so rather than try and predict if he plays or not, I'll simply provide predictions for both options...
Prediction W/ D-Will:
DeAngelo Williams - 55 yards
Jonathan Stewart - 75 yards, 1 TD
Tyrell Sutton - 15 yards
Prediction W/O D-Will:
Jonathan Stewart - 110 yards, 1 TD
Tyrell Sutton - 35 yards
Mike Goodson - 8 yards, 12 rec. yards
Regardless of whether Williams plays or not, I don't think he will be as effective as usual. His knee certainly isn't going to be 100% and he'll probably see less carries to avoid further aggravation. Stewart is going to have to step up, meanwhile I think Sutton will spell him. I expect Goodson will see a couple of carries and reception or two if Williams is a no-go.
All together, I expect the offense to yield a total of 350 yards, give or take.
I've put together a short list of vows for this game in an attempt to better support Carolina.
Why? It may be the furthest stretch thus far but I expect them to finally get the play calling right this week!
With just over 3 hours remaining before Carolina and Atlanta take the field, I'm sure that this will be a close one, as usual, but I'm very confident that we can edge Atlanta out in the end.
Final Prediction: Carolina 20 - Atlanta 17
Carolina's MVP: Jonathan Stewart
Atlanta's MVP: Michael Turner
Both will be essential in converting third & short, a down I expect both teams to see a lot of today. Both are power backs with only a 9 pound difference between the two, and both will be responsible for extending what would otherwise be punting drives for their team. Whichever back ends up with the better stat line at the end of the day could very well lead to which team comes out victorious.
I can't wait to see what unfolds this week.
On a side note, I wonder how Green Bay feels about letting Tyrell Sutton go? Ryan Grant is playing just above mediocrity and I doubt how many carries Ahman Green can take before he falls apart. Sutton hasn't received the chance to prove himself yet but Green Bay is one misstep away from having no valid threat at running back.

JACKSON, MS (WLBT) - The area around Trustmark Park was packed with people Saturday morning.
Thousands of Mississippians raced for a cure in Pearl. It's all part of the Susan G. Komen Foundation's efforts to find a cure for breast cancer and raise awareness about the illness.
One participant underwent her last chemo treatment this past week. She says all women need to get regular check-ups, even if breast cancer doesn't run in their family.
"It blind-sided me big time. But it's something that could happen to anybody. If it's not in your family anywhere, if you don't even know anybody that has cancer, it's something that could affect anybody," said Kellie Morain, cancer survivor.
"The race is just a way for us to come together and raise money and awareness for people that don't know, that aren't aware, and it's just an empowerment for women," added Jessica Ragan, with the Central MS Race Committee.
Organizers say they hope to raise at least a quarter of a million dollars. They say 75% of that money stays in Central Mississippi. The rest goes to the Susan G. Komen National Headquarters.

A Las Vegas mother who was recovering from burn injuries due to a house fire last weekend has died.
The family told FOX5 Claudia Parga passed around 11 Saturday morning.
"It hurt you know when I seen her right there in the bed, and I didn't want to leave the bed, because she was there and I didn't want to go, because I still don't believe she's gone," said Parga's brother Jesus Robles.
Two children and two adults sustained severe burns after a fire erupted in an east Las Vegas neighborhood on Sept. 22, 2012.
Another adult was taken to the hospital for smoke inhalation.
Parga's husband, Leopoldo Rodriguez, dashed through the fire, picked up two children and ran out of the home.
Rodriguez succumbed to his injuries a few days after the blaze.
The two children are still listed in critical condition at UMC.
According to the Clark County Fire Department, the fire started at their home near Maryland Parkway and Hacienda Avenue after a deep fryer was knocked over and the oil inside ignited. That created a wall of fire.
"I was in my room at the time, and I just heard screaming (and) yelling," said Parga's sister Lisa Robles.
For the past week Parga had been battling her burns sustained while trying to rescue her 4-year-old son Omar, and 4-year-old niece Celeste.
"She ran out through the front door because she heard the kids, and she knew they were there," Jesus Robles recalled the horrific event.
At first the family expected Parga to survive.
"She was just fine the other day you know," Lisa Robles said.
"I'm just trying to cope with it right now and it's real hard," said Parga's father Humberto Robles.
The family is unsure on how they're going to pay for the funerals.
"Nobody expects this to happen, no family, so right now we're just trying to find out how we're going to do this," Jesus Robles told FOX5.
"Trying to see if the community can help us because my daughter just passed away this morning," Humberto Robles said.
Meanwhile both the kids remain in the hospital with burns on at least 40% of their bodies and are still on breathing tubes according to the family.
"(I) hope my niece and my nephew make it through because that's the ones I'm praying for now," Jesus Robles told FOX5.
Two dogs were also found dead at the scene.
The fire department says damage is estimated at $40,000.
The American Red Cross is assisting those displaced by the fire.
A bank account for the victims has been set up:

By DON DARE 6 On Your Side Consumer Investigator
KNOXVILLE (WATE) - Owners of a Knoxville-based security company that recently went out of business claim the business is being reorganized, but customers are left wondering if their security systems are being monitored.
The customers are also concerned about repairs to equipment when it fails.
Customers and employees called 6 On Your Side with questions about Secure Watch.
The company had been the second largest ADT dealer in the country until the end of August. That's when ADT dropped its association with Secure Watch.
The Secure Watch security network was vast. At one time, Secure Watch had more than 50 branch offices throughout the Southeast and parts of the Midwest.
Secure Watch pulled out of rented office space in Knoxville a week ago in the middle of the night.
Judging from the mess left in the supply room, the exit was hasty.
At one time, about 100 employees occupied three floors of the Conley Building on Gay Street.
The move from headquarters was so fast and without notice a building manager told 6 On Your Side the unpaid rent bill exceeds $30,000.
When we told Secure Watch custom Mike Myers the company was out of business he said that explained why his requests to fix his system were being ignored.
"This is a welcome package to the Secure Watch family," Myers said as he showed the documents he received when he joined in July.
A door-to-door salesman had sold him a security package for $99.
"They set up the keypad and programmed it to where it's supposed to work," Myers said.
A few days after the system was put in, however, a glitch occurred with one of the door motion detectors and with the keypad installed by Secure Watch.
"Actually, the chime never really worked," Myers said. "So if you push and hold this chime button, it's supposed to have the door chime on, so if you open the door it chimes. It never worked. So this door contact right here has never worked. When I called them they said they weren't going to fix it."
Myers isn't the only Secure Watch customer with problems. 6 On Your Side has obtained a list of dozens of other customers from Florida to Indiana who have waited on equipment never delivered, on service calls never made, or they were just ignored.
Several disappointed employees who once worked for Secure Watch called 6 On Your Side saying they haven't received paychecks they have earned.
"I was told I was not going to get paid my vacation check," said Karen Cox. "When I was laid off I was supposed to have gotten it with my last check, but I did not."
Laid off company workers reported to a building in North Knoxville last Friday to pick up their pay checks for unpaid vacation and unpaid hours they had earned. The company came through, at least for the ones who showed up last Friday.
"I had to fight to get this check," Cox said. "I do have it today."
"They didn't pay my vacation until today," said Christy Tallent, another Secure Watch employee.
"We've gone though a transitory period," said Secure Watch spokesperson Paul Victor. "For a while we had not stopped being affiliated with ADT."
Victor says Saber Alarm, a sister company of Secure Watch, has an office in Norwood. The equipment Saber sells comes from G.E., a competitor of ADT.
At the abandoned Secure Watch headquarters, 6 On Your Side found evidence of Saber-related material. Apparently ADT didn't like that Secure Watch was associated with a competitor and cut off relations.
"We had created a separate brand called Saber Alarm that was not in the ADT family," Victor explained. "We're now in the process of rejoining the ADT family as a dealer of theirs."
ADT confirmed to 6 On Your Side it is in negotiations to resume relations with Secure Watch. As for customers like Mike Myers, Victor says Secure Watch will make sure the equipment he paid for is fixed and no one has to worry about the loss of service.
"The monitoring throughout all of this, the monitoring was never affected," Victor assured.
Victor says he expects negotiations with ADT to be complete within days. He wants Secure Watch customers to know their systems are secure.
Though some Knoxville employees told us they got their paychecks last Friday, some say they have not been paid for sales they made.
A branch manager for Secure Watch and Saber Security in Greenville, N.C. told 6 On Your Side seven people there are still owed money.
Secure Watch said Monday those employees haven't filed the proper paperwork.
We will let you know how negotiations progress between ADT and Secure Watch.

SOO good. GrumpsMama 1 child; Whiskey Dick Mountain, WA, United States 16074 posts20th Nov '12
I made a weird pasta dish. I just used what I had handy.
I coated the chicken in flour, salt, pepper and Italian seasoning, along with chives.
I mixed the chicken with a little sauce, goat cheese and spinache. It is SO amazing.

Sens. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Jeff Sessions (R-AL), and John Cornyn (R-TX) all voted against cloture, despite their pleas during the Bush administration that a president's Cabinet nominees should receive an up-or-down vote.

Schwartz has the look, talk, and credentials to be a winning NFL head coach. He's been tutored by Jeff Fischer and Bill Belichick, both are coaches who have either been to or win a Superbowl. He knows talent from being a former scout, he knows the game inside and out from being a defensive coordinator so long and being incredibly intelligent. He knows what to do to win football games and he's learning what not to do to lose them. He is everything you could possibly ask for in a head coach, but yet, his win-loss record reflects something that he knew before he ever took the head coaching job in Detroit: He inherited a team totally depleted with hardly any talent.
I know that people are pretty hard up on Jim Schwartz right now, as there are plenty of Detroit Lions forums that want to shit-can him and aren't giving him a fair shake. I have to defend him because I truly believe that even though he may start out winning just 6 games or less in his first two years and have a bunch of horrible records of ineptness tied to his name, he will be the coach who gets this team somewhere they haven't been in a very long time, possibly ever.
The NFL is predicated on perennial one-year turnarounds, but only if the teams have a strong core to build on. It's not designed to turnaround a team with a decade long of horrible drafts, poor free agent signings, mismatched players from different schemes, and decades of a losing culture.
These sort of things factor into the reason Jim Schwartz has had such a poor outing so far, it's not like the 2010 Detroit Lions haven't improved from 2008 until now. We have a franchise QB in Stafford, an electrifying back in Jahvid Best, a pro-bowl receiver in Calvin Johnson, a complete tight end in Pettigrew, a defensive line capable of sacking the QB especially Suh, a cornerback in Alphonso Smith who's picked off 5 passes and might make the probowl, a free safety in Louie Delmas who could be one of the best Detroit ever had, and a kick returner in Stephan Logan that actually makes the kick return game relevant. It's just the fact that we are still missing a few very important pieces and this team is still very young and undisciplined.
Schwartz has done his best, along with Mayhew who has made the most out of just two offseasons, to mold this young team into a winner. The fact that Stafford has been injured all season and Best got hurt after week 3 really hurts his cause, but the pieces to build on are there. It's not like there will be a huge roster turnover like years past. The 2011 Detroit Lions, with a 100% healthy Stafford/Best, better offensive line, and upgraded defense, will be the team that defines what Jim Schwartz was trying to accomplish. He's doing his best, and the fact that the Lions have so many key pieces to build on in just 2 offseasons says a lot for what he's trying to do.
On the NFL network commericals, when the coaches say things like "All I want, is NFL Network 365 days a year." or something like that, Jim Schwartz's piece comes on there and says "All I want, is to make the Motor City proud." That's a very telling piece. He wants to make a difference, but it will take time. He knew going into the situation that it would take longer than 2 offseasons to make a winner. He also knew if his starting QB and running back went down and the team started losing that the losing culture would set in again and the team would hear that oh too familiar "Same ol' Lions" bit and would hear the fans cry for the axe. He understands it, and I'm sure doesn't blame the fans. He will make sure the 2011 Lions will change the way we all look at the Detroit Lions.
So, give Schwartz one more offseason/draft and hopefully Stafford/Best stay healthy enough all season to make a difference, and if they still lose, I say scrap it and start over because he's not answer. I don't think that's the case, but this is the Detroit Lions after all.

A Kingsport mother is now charged with child abuse and neglect, after her mentally challenged son escaped from his bedroom and was found banging on the windows and door of a neighbor's home.
According to the Kingsport Police Department, the child of Sherry M. Harris was found Sunday around 11:00 a.m., wearing soiled underwear, and was unable to speak or tell the officer where he lived. The responding officer found the front door of a home opened a few doors down on Myrtle Street. According to the affidavit, inside the home, a couch had acted as a baby gate to the boy's room, positioned so he could still watch cartoons on the television in the living room.
Police found used diapers, cigarette butts, and food in the floors.
"It's important that we're notified of situations like it. It could have been the neighbor maybe knew where the child belonged, and just took the child home, but then we could possibly have a track record of something like this happening and not be aware of it," Patton said.
When asked why Harris had slept in, she told the officer she had drank a few shots of liquor, two beers, took half a percocet. Harris continued on to say she just wanted to "stay up late and listen to some music," and that she had just over slept and made a mistake.
Harris's self-described "mistake," is one Kingsport Police say happens all too often.
"It's not unheard of at all for Kingsport Police to get calls about a, you know, a child wandering in the roadway. And when we get there, we find the child, the child's too young to communicate, in this case the child wasn't mentally able to communicate, and then we have to track the child down to the parent and we find the parent asleep, or passed out, or under the influence of drugs or alcohol. And again, it happens much more often than you would think," Tom Patton, Public Information Officer for Kingsport Police Department said.
News Channel 11 has confirmed the child is currently under the care of the Department of Child Services, which is working to find a stable environment for the child.
Harris's court date is scheduled for Thursday.

NORFOLK, Va. (WAVY) — Whether you're voting absentee or going to the polls next week, there are a couple of referendums in Virginia Beach and Norfolk that might be confusing.
In Norfolk, the referendum will ask voters whether or not they want to amend the state constitution on eminent domain.
Eminent domain is defined as the government taking private land for public use, widely understood to be used for highways, railroads or schools. In 2005, the Supreme Court ruled cities could take private land for economic development, meaning that one business owner could lose his land so that another business owner could use that same land and make more money or create more jobs.
If passed, the amendment Nov. 6 would make that move illegal. It would make the right to private property a "fundamental right." The amendment says the taking or damaging of private property must be for a stated public use. It states the city could still take land considered a public nuisance but not if the primary use is for "private gain or economic development." This would stop someone from labeling a place a public nuisance just to get the land.
The referendum also states that the property owner must be paid for not only the land but for the profits, lost access and damages when land is taken. Opponents say that will make it a lot more expensive to build roads or public buildings, which they say would cost taxpayers.
In Virginia Beach, the question of light rail reads, "Should the Virginia Beach City Council adopt an ordinance approving the use of all reasonable efforts to support the financing and development of the Tide light rail into Virginia Beach?"
If you check the 'yes' box, you are saying that you support bringing light rail to the Beach and that you want the council to continue a study seeing how much the project would cost.
City council says the intent of the referendum is to see if voters have changed their minds on light rail since 1999 when they voted it down.
The vote on Nov. 6 is not legally binding, meaning that the city council can do what it wants.

Floyd Hits the Ground Running: Los Angeles Section Player of the Year Dwayne Polee Now Has UTEP in Top 3
Dwayne Polee, an exceptional athlete, had committed to USC before he ever played a game at Westchester High. After Tim Floyd resigned, he withdrew his commitment. Now, the 6'7 small forward (and 3-Star Rivals Recruit) has narrowed his choices to UTEP, UNLV, and Georgia. Polee said that he intends to make his decision "within weeks." I am still waiting to see if recruits that Tony Barbee signed (John Bohannon, Matt Korcheck, Jamison Stearns, and Darrious Curry) will still enroll at UTEP. With Derrick Caracter leaving early, the Miners now have another scholarship available. According to the article, "Polee, a master dunker and a stellar shot blocker with his 40-inch vertical leap and aggressiveness around the basket, has been named the Daily Breeze Player of the Year after expanding his game and having his best season for Westchester (32-3), which captured back-to-back L.A. City Section and CIF Division I state championships." You know how sometimes, people say they run a 4.4 forty but they really don't? Or have a 40 inch vertical? Well, Polee has a 40 inch vertical. The kid can fly. Polee's father, Dwayne Polee, Sr. was hired as the Director of Basketball Operations at USC shortly after Polee committed to become a Trojan. The Polee family is something of basketball royalty in L.A. as Polee, Sr. was also a high school sensation and named the City Section Player of the Year too, before going on to star at Pepperdine. He also played briefly for the L.A. Clippers. His family undoubtedly has close ties with Coach Floyd, and he would be a steal this late in the process. Also, if Polee were to recruit, it would help UTEP get a nice swipe at former rival, New Mexico, as the Lobos reportedly were recruiting him hard. Now, it appears the Lobos are out of the mix.

SAN DIEGO (AP) - The San Diego Chargers have re-signed left tackle Jared Gaither to a four-year contract and signed unrestricted free agent linebacker Jarret Johnson, formerly of the Baltimore Ravens, to a four-year deal.
Gaither helped solidify the Chargers' line during the last five games after he was waived by Kansas City. He replaced Marcus McNeill, who sustained a season-ending neck injury on Nov. 10. McNeill was released on Tuesday. Gaither had been an unrestricted free agent for a day.
Johnson was with Baltimore for nine seasons. He played in a Ravens franchise-record 129 consecutive regular-season games and has started 89 in a row, including playoffs. He had 56 tackles and 2 ½ sacks last year.
The Chargers also agreed to a one-year deal with tight end Kory Sperry, whose contract had expired.

Staunton is ready to take another big step toward the Gateway project, the largest development in its history, and the Queen City is hoping the state will help share in the cost.
The 300-acre Gateway property is currently the home of Western State Hospital, but that facility will soon move into a new home.
Staunton's deal with the commonwealth allows it to turn the vacated land into a mixed-use development, perhaps including space for retail, offices, medical and residential.
A major access point is off Route 250, but right now it's a two-lane road that winds its way through the property. Staunton plans a nearly $2 million upgrade, and hopes the Virginia Department of Transportation Revenue Sharing Program will pick up half the cost.
The city will be ready to build the road sometime next year, but even if it does earn those state dollars, they won't be available until July 1.
"We just look at the level of demand from the potential business tenants, how soon they would like to be in the property," said Staunton Economic Development Director Bill Hamilton. "We'll balance that against the advantage of having state dollars to contribute to the budget. That'll tell us essentially how to go about it."
Staunton is in the final stages of designing infrastructure for the Gateway project. It will include a total of four entrances, two of them off North Frontier Drive.
Hamilton points out that revenue sharing is a competitive program, with many cities and counties seeking a piece of a $10 million pie. Staunton's application is due November 1.

The Batesville Community School Corp. technology vision "is to provide today's students with the skills and tools for tomorrow's success," report Jackie Huber, director of instructional technology curriculum, and Mike Weiler, director of information technology support.
"In order to successfully prepare our students for the 21st century, 1:1 technology is vital for all students. Computers in the hands of students open a world of learning opportunities. The school corporation's commitment is to provide 1:1 technology to all students by 2014.
The first phase began in August 2012 at Batesville High School and the second phase started at Batesville Middle School this past August.
Taira Lynch, BHS science teacher, believes that the laptops "are preparing them for the world outside of K-12. Upon entering college and/or the workforce, students are faced with computers. Our students have an advantage over others because they will already have the knowledge of how to properly maneuver through applications and utilize the Internet for information."
The BCSC Technology Department prepared and distributed 1,300 computers to students in grades 6-12 during the first week of school. All BMS students received 11-inch MacBook Air laptops. BHS students received 13-inch MacBook Airs. They also received computer bags so the devices are protected.
Technology employees began preparing for 1:1 24 months before the laptops were given to the students. Improvements to the infrastructure included adding Meraki wireless access points in each classroom and larger group areas along with increased Internet bandwidth to 215 megabytes. Additional technology staff members were added this year to support the initiative at both schools.
The independent study AppleCare IT class expanded to include 26 students to support both BHS and BMS HelpDesk areas. These students have opportunities to learn about technology support and can work toward Apple certification. Two IT staff members have
completed ACMT (Apple Certified Mac Technician) certification, allowing them to complete warranty repairs on the student laptops, saving money for the corporation.

911 tape released of Aydelott crime scene
The teenager accused of killing his mother on Christmas Eve will have his first appearance in adult court today.
17-year-old William Brandon Aydelott was in juvenile court Friday and we are not allowed to show his face. The judge told Aydelott that he will be transferred to the Santa Rosa County jail and tried as an adult. Santa Rosa County deputies say Sharon Aydelott was stabbed multiple times and beaten with a baseball bat.
State Attorney Bill Eddins is asking a grand jury to indict the teen on a charge of premeditated first degree murder.
A 911 tape released reveals it was Sharon Aydelott's estranged husband who found the brutal murder scene inside her home. We will warn you the recording is very graphic.
Out of breath and crying for help, Sharon Aydelott's estranged husband William Aydelott made an emotional 911 call hoping to save her life.
Around 6 p.m. on Christmas Eve night William Aydelott discovered Sharon's body in her home. He took his young daughter outside and quickly dialed 911.
"Somebody is hurt real bad here though and I need somebody to get here as fast as they can get here please," said William Randall Aydelott.
The dispatcher tried to help him remain calm in front of his daughter.
"Are you with them now?" "No, I've got my little girl and I'm trying to get her to the neighbor's house."
After dropping his daughter off, he quickly ran to Sharon's home. Explaining to the 911 dispatcher he was afraid to speak in front of his daughter.
Saying he knew his son William Brandon Aydelott was to blame.
"My son, my son I know she's dead he stabbed her in the head... I saw her laying in the floor."
The call continues from there but becomes too graphic to share. The son William Brandon Aydelott was arrested three hours later.
Deputies say he confessed to the murder. He is now charged with second degree murder.

If you've been dissatisfied with Victor Martinez since he joined the Boston Red Sox, there is something wrong with you… OK. I'll bite.
I'm dissatisfied with Victor Martinez.
It's been almost impossible to argue with his production thus far: .313/.386/.500 at CATCHER. Five homeruns and fourteen walks in 126 plate appearances.
But Justin Masterson?
There's a bad feeling going around that Justin Masterson will one day be the ballplayer incarnate of "the girl that got away." The ONE. THE one with the scintillating combination of groundballs and strike outs. He upped his K-rate from 6.93 per 9 this season to 8.16, while dropping his walk rate to 3.77 per nine. 53.1 percent ground balls? You can't find that combination anywhere.
TWO years of major league service time… and he's still just 24!
In the spirit of full disclosure, I, more than anyone, am glad Theo finally put to rest his policy of never dealing his top pitching prospects. It was getting to the point where he seemed like an overprotective father. But Masterson was not the one to deal. This is the daughter you keep in on weekends because she'll end up hanging with the wrong crowd or older boys.
93 mph four-seamer, 83-84 mph slider, 85-86 change-up, with an absolute bowling ball of a two-seamer.
I love Victor, but couldn't we have given up someone else?
Bowden is great. Buchholz is better. In Boston, we've grown to fall in love with these names, treating them as saviors to the future of this team… but the true savior is gone.
The future Brandon Webb of the American League has left for Cleveland and isn't coming back. We have a better shot seeing him in the ALCS this year than in a Boston uniform at any time the rest of his career.
By the way, Cleveland is 58-74 this season.
My only hope is that Cleveland held a hard line in negotiations and Masterson was the only player who could complete the deal for V-Mart. Then, and only then, will I be able to sleep comfortably.
Buchholz or Masterson? Masterson or Buchholz? Both incredible talents. Both with incredible futures ahead of them.
But, because they're like sisters, we have a duty to never stop comparing them… and to never let them feel proud of themselves unless they're the prettiest one. With that said, here's how their plate discipline rates regress so far in 2009:
Justin Masterson
0.80 Contact Rate 0.273 O-Swing% 0.495 Zone %
Expected Rates: 7.000 K/9 3.265 BB/9
Clay Buchholz
0.789 Contact Rate 0.229 O-Swing% 0.513 Zone %
Expected Rates: 8.137 K/9 3.341 BB/9
At 24 and 25 years old, those are some pretty gaudy peripherals.
Perhaps Clay is the prettier sister. And maybe he's ready for the big time after all.
But I will always miss Justin.
Series Preview
The upcoming series with the White Sox should serve as a reprieve from their recent matchups against playoff caliber competition. While Chicago is not yet completely out of the AL Central, sitting 6.5 back of Detroit, they're doing their best to stay out of contention, sporting a cool 65-69 record.
They very recently waived the white flag as well, shipping Jim Thome to the Dodgers and Jose Contreras to the Rockies. The moves are a bit curious, especially since the ChiSox paid out millions just weeks ago to acquire both Alex Rios and Jake Peavy. But, hey, you can't argue with a horrible August. Sometimes, fate just isn't on your side, and it isn't with the White Sox in 2009.
As a result, the White Sox will play host to the Red Sox in Chicago, sans Thome, sans Contreras, and sans inspiration. It's a sad state of affairs in Chicago, but all the better for Boston. Chicago has one of the weakest offenses in the American League, ranking 11th in runs scored, 11th in OPS, and 11th in Slugging Percentage. Not a potent attack.
Now with Thome out of the lineup, Chicago's lack of punch will be even more noticeable, especially considering that Chicago will replace Thome's Hall of Fame bat with Scott Podsednik's miniature toothpick. Were Boston's rotation not so torn up, this series would be a no-contest.
Don't Miss: 3B/SS Gordon Beckham
During this series, make sure to get a good look at young 3B/SS Gordon Beckham. The University of Georgia product was drafted eighth overall in 2008 and has seen a quick ascension to the majors with only 259 minor league plate appearances.
In 328 major league trips to the plate in 2009, Beckham has hit .272/.349/.446. He has a good sense of the strike zone, especially for a rookie, swinging at 25% of pitches outside the zone, with a 9.7% walk rate and 17.8 percent strikeout rate. Beckham has a great career ahead of him, so get a good look while Boston is in town.
Don't Miss: Starting Pitcher John Danks
Lester's matchup in Toronto last weekend should have had many more thrills and suspense. Unfortunately for the viewing public, it was over before it began, though he'll make up for it by facing southpaw John Danks on Sunday, who is one of the best young lefties in the league. He's had his share of struggles this year, posting a 4.32 FIP against a 3.82 ERA, after posting a 3.44 FIP and 3.32 ERA in 2008.
Danks has stopped throwing his slider this season, supplementing it with an increased use of his cut fastball, which was one of the main contributors to his breakout year in 2008. His cutter is easily his best pitch, with a 2.26 wCT/C. His other pitches haven't been as effective as 2008, as his decreased success with the fastball has been a bit concerning. It's velocity has dropped slighty, down to 90.6 mph from 91.3 mph, though this fluctuation is likely nothing to worry about.
Danks will come at the Sox with a four pitch mix of a 4-seam fastball, curve, change, and his signature cutter. He strikes out a good deal of batters, at 7.13 K/9. His walk rate is somewhat elevated this year, at 3.37 BB/9, due mostly to the fact that hitters are laying off his pitches outside the zone.
Don't miss Danks when he pitches against the Red Sox. This is a great pitchers matchup that shouldn't disappoint fans.
Game 1, Friday:
Matchup: The Byrd v. Freddy Garcia
Free Byrd, the elderly journeyman, faces off against, well, Garcia, the elderly journeyman. Steady Freddy is with his second team in 2009 on his second tour with the White Sox. Garcia has actually been better than advertised in short time this season, though posting a 5.94 ERA. His 13 strikeouts against 5 walks in 16.2 innings has been more than expected from a pitcher of his age and recent injury history.
Don't expect too much from either pitcher. Byrd will be OK, though don't pay expecting to see another shut out. This one's difficult to predict, as there is almost zero sample size for either pitcher this season. But that's a good thing – wild cards always make for more interesting games.
Both pitchers seem "sharp" in their own way, despite the time off. Garcia's fastball is just where he left it in 2006, sitting at 89 mph. He's got a four pitch mix of 4-seamer, slider, change, and splitter.
Should make for a good game, even if the headliners are nothing special. Think about the movie "Slackers". No real stars, but it should be entertaining.
Final Score: White Sox: 4.561 Red Sox: 4.411
Game 2, Saturday:
Matchup: Junichi Tazawa v. Gavin Floyd
Gavin Floyd has always been somewhat of an enigma. He was once one of the best prospects in the Phillies system, though he flared out in every shot at the big leagues before leaving for Chicago in 2007.
Since then, his career has been about as good as it gets for "former prospects". Still just 26 years old, he has found his form this season, posting a 3.97 ERA, 3.86 FIP, 7.58 K/9 and 2.85 BB/9. Floyd is certainly an asset to any rotation and his turnaround has been quite a surprise since his days in the Phillies organization.
At this point, Junichi Tazawa is what he is: a great prospect struggling because he was brought up too early. Don't let Tazawa's lack of success tarnish your opinion of him, as is often the case with young players who don't perform immediately.
Don't expect too much from him and you might not be let down, it should help that he's going against one of the weakest attacks in the American League.
Final Score: White Sox: 4.999 Red Sox: 4.142
Game 3, Sunday:
Matchup: Jon Lester v. John Danks
This is three weeks in a row where the Sox have a great matchup on a Sunday. Two young lefties with great stuff and plenty of strikeout ability. At this juncture in their careers, Lester is clearly the better pitcher, but you could say that about almost any pitcher in the majors other than maybe Tim Lincecum. Good game and a nice way to get through a Sunday.
Lester should have no problem taking care of the weak Sox lineup and Thome's complete ineptitude against lefties wouldn't have helped Chicago anyway.
Final Score: Red Sox: 4.553 White Sox: 2.884
Game 4, Monday:
Matchup: Josh Beckett v. Mark Buehrle
Beckett has really had a rough go of it lately as his home run problems have resurfaced. He's been "as real as Radke" lately, but the weak White Sox offense should give him a break. Especially without Thome, this offense should be no problem for the struggling ace.
Buehrle has never been a sexy player, though he's had a great career since breaking in back in 2000. He's a workhorse in every sense of the word, topping 200 innings in every season since 2001. With a career 3.81 ERA and 4.18 FIP, he's not quite the ace Chicago wants him to be, but consistency is always a welcome asset. Stingy on the free passes (career 2.04 BB/9), he pitches to contact and gets his fair share of groundballs. That's my kind of pitcher. Too bad he draws the Sox ace, Josh Beckett.
Becket snaps out of his funk and delivers a quality start. The road to recovery isn't always a long one.
Final Score: Red Sox: 4.721 White Sox: 3.501
I'm surprised my system likes Freddy Garcia more than both Mark Buehrle and John Danks, though I'm going to chalk this up to a small sample size for 2009. If I were to bet on it, I'd say the Sox take three in this series, as the teams will split the first two, with Boston taking games 3 and 4 fairly comfortably.
As we get towards the heart of September, every game gets more and more important. The Sox are still firmly in control of the AL Wild Card and Texas is a much bigger threat than Tampa. However, things will get interesting if Tampa can pull out a win Thursday.
As always, have a great weekend and I'll see you again on Tuesday.

EasyJet is probably best known to Americans as "the European discount airline that isn't RyanAir," if they've heard of it at all. Now they're also the airline that grounds adults for sassing them on the Internet. That's what happened to a law professor and columnist who was annoyed that he might miss his connection when an EasyJet flight was delayed, and more annoyed that a soldier might miss his.
"I wasn't concerned for me," he told the Independent, but if [the soldier] might miss his boat, which was potentially disembarking into a war zone, because he had relied on EasyJet, then I thought put pressure on them to do something about it." Fair enough: we understand wanting to stick up for fellow consumers. This wasn't very fair from EasyJet's point of view, though.
Manager came down to inquire why I was tweeting about @easyJet. Staff member said I cant tweet stuff like that. Asked me to save the tweet.—
Mark Leiser (@mleiser) September 24, 2013
@AdamWagner1 @PaulbernalUK funny thing is I was waiting in Glasgow airport working on next weeks lecture on free speech & social media.—
Mark Leiser (@mleiser) September 25, 2013
Word about his tweet traveled from the company's headquarters to the airport, apparently. He says that while the passengers were queuing up to board, a gate attendant pulled him out of line. A manager explained why, and told the attendant to find out whether he had checked any luggage so they could kick it off the plane, too.
In the end, free speech won only because he "flashed" a card identifying him as a law lecturer. Finally! An affiliation with academia has a use in the real world!
Evidently, an ordinary citizen would have been removed from the flight and forced to take a train or rebook.

Comanche, Ok_17 children developed rashes after playing in a splash pad in a suburb near Tulsa, Ok.
An investigator with the state Health Department says it appears chemicals are to blame. However, the chemicals have not been identified as the outbreak remains under investigation.
7News discovered that operators have to add chemicals when they recirculate the water. It is a problem that the Comanche splash park will never have to deal with. However, parents should still be aware of the parks' operating procedures.
The city of Comanche does not recirculate the water at its splash park. The water there goes into a drain and then into the sewer, never to be used again.
It is a decision City Manager Wilt Brown says was made partly for health reasons. "Re-circulation you have to take too good of care of the water, so ours is just pass through water. We use it just like you would to take a shower at home", Brown said.
But when splash pads first popped up, many cities were worried about saving water.
"Those types of parks like the one here in Duncan and in Lawton, re-use their water. When it goes into the drain it runs to a tank inside this building---where's it's treated with chemicals and put back out", Brown said.
The same type of system is used where the rash cases were found. But it doesn't necessarily mean those types of parks are unsafe.
Dan Brown, the South Central Quadrant Supervisor for the State Health Department said the agency does not inspect splash pads but the operators should.
They are supposed to check the water four times per day to ensure chemicals are balanced and within the safe ranges.
If not---the park is required to close. Something the Comanche splash park isn't exempt from either with the ongoing drought. However, Brown says they'll take the gamble.
"I'd rather deal with the drought and shut down our park then deal with health issues with our kids", Brown explained.
If you have concerns about your local park you should call the operator, which is usually the city.

Albany -- If money talks, many high school seniors may not be getting the message. The Federal Reserve says the financial know-how of high school students is "dismal." We checked to see if South Georgia students taking financial education could pass the test.
Ms. Milner's money management class at Albany High School is learning how to read a power bill, and if the charges are totaled correctly.
Milner says it's practical education. "How to take care of checkbook, how to make sure they are getting paid correctly, how their bills are being paid, budgeting their money, and income tax and things like that."
Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan has long advocated more financial education for American students. Every year the Fed tests high school seniors on common finance questions. Nationwide this year students answered less than half the questions correctly.
We gave Ms Milner's class a sampling of that test. One of the questions, Kevin has nine thousand dollars for college, and starts next year. What is the safest way to keep his money. A-bank savings account B-Corporate Bonds C- Stock Market D- in his closet. The correct answer is A, the bank saving account, and Ms. Milner's entire class answered correctly.
In the sample test, most of the money management class answered three of four questions correctly, much better than the national average. Ms. Milner said she is not surprised. "No this is a good group. These are very smart young people."
The money management students agree that learning finance in high school is a good idea. Nasekia Jackson said "It's teaching us how to do everything. About reconciling. How to write bank statements, how to go back and look and see what you missed, just in case you get ripped off."
Lilac Lee said she agreed most high school student's parents take care of all the money, and don't teach them how. "Do you think most kids in this school know how to write a check or how to balance a checkbook? No."
Only four states require students take a course covering personal finance in order to graduate. Georgia is not one of them.

Jeanniey Mullen | January 4, 2013 | Comments
What's at the intersection of the future and past of publishing? Content.
It was billed as #thelastprintissue. That was Newsweek's cover in late December. The announcement came across as a mix of optimism and finality. Look at the last print issue of Newsweek and it seems like a New Orleans funeral. We were happy, we were sad, we played great music, and we now see something else on the horizon.
I found Newsweek's "passing" fascinating. It might surprise you to hear this from a digital publishing evangelist, but I do believe that print and digital will live side-by-side. It's never the death of one and the new life of another. Just as we called Internet media new media and now we call it all media, I believe at some point very soon publishing will be called publishing. It will no longer be divided into digital publishing and print publishing. It's publishing. Content. I find it much more interesting. It's the intersection of future and past.
What I observed with the Newsweek migration was a sense that this is the beginning rather than the end. I'm not sure that the scale involved for magazines like Newsweek is long for the future. But I look at all the large-scale magazines and I see the success that they are having and I have to believe that they have great audiences and great content. It meets at content.
What tips the balance? The balance will be tipped by brands. Brands will be the ones to decide that their lasting image in the print magazine is worth their focus and money. Brands will also decide that the flexibility and agility of digital publishing is worth their focus.
The other tipping point is content itself. The digital publishing platform very simply allows for niche interests at low overhead. We're seeing more interesting content published and more specific niche-oriented interest addressed than ever before. I would argue that this is the golden age of publishing. Newsweek bye-bye. Daily Beast, hello. But understand that it is publishing and content. Discovery of that content that will drive this business. The content business. The publishing business.

A 62-year-old woman hit by a MAX train in northeast Portland died from her injuries at the hospital Thursday.
Police and fire crews rushed to the scene near the Lloyd Center Mall at 7:30 a.m., and around 18 firefighters were involved in removing the woman from underneath the train.
Portland fire crews used a specialized hydraulic lift to try and rescue her. Officers later reported the 62-year-old woman had died from her injuries at the hospital.
She was identified Friday as Yvonne Osredkar of Ridgefield, WA.
Investigators believe the woman stepped into a crosswalk directly in the path of a westbound MAX train pulling into the station at Northeast 7th and Holladay Street.
Police said after reviewing surveillance video, it appears Osredkar did not hear the train coming, possibly due to heavy construction in the area.
Investigators have determined that the MAX operator was not impaired at the time of the crash.
TriMet officials said MAX Blue, Red and Green lines were disrupted by the crash, and commuters were told to expect delays through the rest of the morning commute. Shuttle buses served stations between Northeast 11th Avenue near Lloyd Center and the Chinatown station in Old Town.
Full MAX service was restored around 9:45 a.m.

By Natalie Perkins
Scratching, clawing, biting, hissing—no, I'm not talking about shoppers at a Nordstrom's sale, I'm talking about pet rivalries. Having two or more pets that just don't seem to get along, be it dogs, cats, or a combination of both, can be frustrating, time-consuming, and even dangerous! That's why we turned to Amy Shojai, certified Animal Behavior Consultant and author of over 20 cat and dog care books, to give us a little bit of help dealing with these "sibling rivalries."
To begin with, Shojai wants us to think of rivalries as a sort of natural competition among our pets. Survival of the fittest has been a large part of evolution for all species, so competition can be seen as a sort of instinctual strategy for survival.
According to Shojai, "It's a numbers game—two pets usually love, like, or at least learn to tolerate each other; three pets can create an odd-pet-out that gets bullied; four pets and above virtually guarantees serious pet-to-pet issues." A lot of this has to do with the breed, gender, and sexual status of your pets. According to Shojai, "The worst issues seem to arise from same-sex and same-species pets."
So what causes these rivalries in our pets? There are a number of factors that can cause tension and competition, including territory, personality, and resources. According to Shojai, "The most important territory for a pet is YOU and access to your attention."
She also says that pets tend to get into more scuffs when there are limited resources, like toys or food. Another big factor can be personality: "two wannabe 'top dog' types who argue over who's in charge can be misery to live with." OK, if anyone's thinking 'Hey, this dosn't seem much different than the rivalry amongst my kids', there are some major differences in tug-of-wars with our four-legged friends.
What kind of behaviors should you look out for? Shojai points out that the ways in which pets display rivalries differs between the species. "Dogs argue with each other over a favorite toy or bone," she says, "while cats argue over favorite sleep spots or 'guard' the litter box to keep others from using the facilities."
She also says that cat rivalries will include more furniture-scratching or "hit-or-miss litter box behaviors," which signal territorial claims.
These behaviors are all normal ones for a completely healthy rivalry among pets. However, if you start to notice that certain behaviors are provoking fear or physical harm to the pets, Shojai encourages pet owners to take notice.
It's not uncommon for pets to get a little bit rough when playing but, "You'll know it's play when both parties come back for more, rather than one hiding or running away from encounters."
It's normal for dogs to bark and whine during play, but any vocalizations from cats can mean a more serious situation because, Shojai says, cats tend to play in silence.
Whether or not your pets' rivalry is dangerous, it can be irritating to have animals that are constantly bickering in your house. Luckily, there are things you can do to help ease the tension!
For starters, Shojai recommends getting all pets neutered: "Neutering helps level the playing field and reduces hormonal stress that can stir up rivalries." Also very important is the way that we treat our pets.
According to Shojai, "the biggest mistake owners make is trying to force 'fair play' in their pets and treat them equally—this can make the situation worse." Instead, she recommends that all pet owners recognize the "head pet," who is usually the oldest or has been around the longest. The owner has to feed this pet first, play with him first—just overall, give this one the most attention!
Later on, Shojai says, when the "king" pet isn't around, you can give the other pet all the attention it wants. This may not seem to be the most democratic approach, but behaviors like this are what animals understand best.
Another way to limit the presence of rivalries, according to Shojai, is to "provide multiple resources to the pets so they have no reason to argue." If there is plenty of food and toys, your cat won't feel threatened when the dog starts sniffing her toy! Finally, Shojai strongly recommends getting professional help if your pets' rivalry is getting out of hand.

NEAR BYRON, Minn. (KTTC) -- A Rochester man is hospitalized after rear-ending an SUV on Highway 14.
It happened west of Byron just before 3 p.m. Monday. The Minnesota State Patrol says Steven Michog, 40, of Rochester, was driving his Oldsmobile on Highway 14 when he hit a Hyundai Santa Fe. He was taken to Saint Marys Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
The driver of the Santa Fe, Douglas Grey, 72, of Rochester, walked away with no injuries.

With breast cancer easier to diagnosis at earliest stages, some doctors worry that treatments aimed at more established cancers may be too aggressive for some patients.
A new study funded by National Cancer Institute will examine how patients make treatment decisions, how doctors make treatment recommendations, and how to improve the process for better outcomes.
"Many women diagnosed with breast cancer have a favorable prognosis, and these women are particularly vulnerable to harm if treatment is too aggressive. We can't optimally improve women's health unless we address the challenges of individualizing cancer treatments," said Steven J. Katz, M.D., M.P.H.. Katz is the principal investigator for the study taking place at the University of Michigan's Comprehensive Cancer Center.
"This program is about helping patients and their doctors avoid doing more harm than good on the journey from treatment to recovery from a diagnosis of breast cancer," he added.
The number of women diagnosed with the earliest stages of breast cancer has nearly tripled in the last twenty years. These early diagnoses tend to have good prognoses, with up to 95 percent of women surviving, but many patients still face complicated decisions about how aggressively to treat the disease. Answers can vary based on each patient's specific tumor, family history or lifestyle.
"What's important is that treatment decisions are based on an accurate understanding of the options, risks and benefits, and that the choice is consistent with the patient's underlying values," said Sarah Hawley, Ph.D., M.P.H., an associate professor of internal medicine at U-M.
