ICBA Chairman, President Urge Basel III Action
Now is the time for community bankers to submit a comment letter on the Basel III proposed capital standards and to tell everyone they know to sign ICBA's petition to exempt the industry from the regulations, ICBA Chairman Jeff Gerhart and ICBA President and CEO Cam Fine wrote in a message to community bankers. With one of the most important regulatory comment deadlines in the industry's history scheduled for a couple short weeks, every community banker to needs to step up now, they wrote.
"Let the regulators know that these complex regulations are unwise and counterproductive," Fine and Gerhart wrote. "Send them a letter and tell everyone you know to sign our petition. We have one shot at this, so don't leave anything behind!"
ICBA offers resources to help community bankers spread the word. The association offers a comprehensive Basel III webpage with guidelines for drafting comment letters, a link to the regulators' calculator for determining the impact of the proposal, insertable talking points, information on where to send your comment letter, and more.
ICBA strongly opposes the proposed rules, which would subject all banks and thrifts to the new requirements, regardless of size. The association is urging regulators to exempt community banks from the Basel III guidelines and allow them to retain the Basel I capital rules.

Regulators Approve New Stress-Testing, Assessment Systems
Federal regulators approved final rules requiring covered institutions with more than $10 billion in assets to conduct annual company-run stress tests. Institutions with more than $50 billion in assets will be required to begin conducting annual stress tests this year, though regulators may allow covered institutions to delay implementation on a case-by-case basis.
The rule delays implementation for covered institutions with total consolidated assets between $10 billion and $50 billion until October 2013. For institutions with more than $50 billion in assets that are required to begin stress testing this year, regulators said they expect to release stress-testing scenarios in November.
The FDIC board of directors also approved a final rule that refines the deposit-insurance assessment system for insured depository institutions with more than $10 billion in assets. The agency said the final rule amends the definitions used to identify concentrations in higher-risk assets to better reflect the risk posed to institutions and the FDIC. As of June 30, there were 108 institutions with more than $10 billion in assets, the FDIC said.
Finally, the FDIC updated its loss, income and reserve-ratio projections for the Deposit Insurance Fund over the next several years and concluded that the DIF reserve ratio is on track to reach the statutory minimum target of 1.35 percent by the Sept. 30, 2020, deadline.
Reports on Foreclosure-Rescue Scams Increase
Suspicious activity reports regarding foreclosure rescue scams grew in the first half of 2012 even as the total number of SARs indicating mortgage loan fraud declined, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network reported. Financial institutions filed 2,360 foreclosure rescue–related SARs in the first half of 2012. At this pace, 2012 foreclosure-rescue SARs will exceed the total of 2,782 reported in 2011.
In the second quarter of 2012, financial institutions submitted 17,476 total mortgage-loan-fraud SARs, a 41 percent decrease from the same period in 2011. Of these, 8 percent were related to foreclosure rescue. FinCEN said real estate market conditions and a growing awareness of foreclosure-rescue scams might be influencing this upward filing trend.
FHFA Releases 2013-17 Strategic Plan
The Federal Housing Finance Agency released an updated strategic plan for fiscal 2013-17. The agency's four strategic goals included in the plan are:
FinCEN Hosting Roundtable on Customer Due Diligence Proposal
The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network said it will host a roundtable discussion to continue gathering information on the advance notice of proposed rulemaking on customer due diligence requirements. The meeting is scheduled for 9:30 a.m. (Pacific time) Monday, Oct. 29, at the Los Angeles Branch of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco. FinCEN issued the proposed rule to solicit public comment on the potential development of an explicit customer due diligence obligation for financial institutions, including a requirement to collect beneficial ownership information of their customers.

People's Choice winner illustrates God's loving watch-care
"Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father's care. And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows." Matthew 10:29-31.
Only in the past couple years, when Elaine Alpers took a college drawing class, did she discover a love and aptitude for art. This year, Elaine took home the People's Choice award from the Avera Employee & Family Art Show.
Elaine received the most votes for her artwork titled, "Matthew 10:29-31 Series." It is a mixed media, drawn on burned wood. "The main idea is that God remembers us and loves us even when we feel insignificant and unworthy," Elaine said. While the burned wood represents illness and death, the image of a bird in flight represents new life and hope. "God values each of us, including the sick and dying."
Elaine, a junior at the University of Sioux Falls, is the daughter of Dr. Josie Alpers of Avera Medical Group Radiology. When Elaine took a drawing class in college, she enjoyed it so much she changed her major to art and graphic design. "I enjoy the whole spectrum of art," she added. Elaine volunteers with the Avera Cancer Institute's Artist in Residence program, working with cancer patients on therapeutic art projects.
Congratulations, Elaine, and thanks for entering the Avera Employee & Family Art Show!
Congratulations to winners of the Avera Employee and Family Art Show. A reception and awards ceremony was held Monday, July 22, in their honor.

A happy holiday for the Mt. Pleasant Animal Shelter
Parsippany Life
The Associate Activities Committee of the Parsippany office of ADP collected items for homeless animals at the Mt. Pleasant Animal Shelter. The project, lead by Paula Coe, Connie Lam, and Renee Gyuro, created paw print gift tags which listed needed supplies and included a picture and bio of an adoptable dog or cat at Mt. Pleasant. Employees attached the tags to the donations, many wrapped up like holiday gifts. By the end of the drive, there was enough to fill a van. Also pictured is Bonnie, a kitten available for adoption.

Tube power control staff set to walk out for eight days
Updated 10:05am Tuesday 1st July 2014 in News By David Eggboro, Reporter - Epping Forest
An eight-day strike by power control room staff at London Underground is due to begin later today.
Rail, Maritime and Transport union (RMT), Unite, and Transport Salaried Staffs' Association (TSSA) members are due to walk out at 8pm until 7.59pm on July 9.
The dispute is about pensions, length of service, working conditions and the futures of the staff who supply the power to the entire Tube network.
Mick Cash RMT acting general secretary said: "This dispute is over an all-out attack on the power control grade that would damage the futures of this key group of Tube workers.
"Management's claim they can run the system without them is both provocative and dangerous.
"These staff are effectively the national grid for London Underground and this action will have the most severe consequences for Tube operations but has been forced on us by management wrecking the earlier talks."
Richard Jones, London Underground's head of command and control, said: "Due to detailed planning there will be no visible impact on the network should the strike action go ahead."

Title: Prom & Prejudice
Author: Elizabeth Eulberg [website] [twitter] [facebook]
Genre: Contemporary, Romance
Publisher: Point
Format: Hardcover
Source: Publicist
Parental Advisory: drugs, alcohol, allusions to sexual — (all light)
Teachable Moments: bullying, peer pressure, passing judgment, navigating class structure
"I was in a daze as I got on the dance floor. It was like having an out-of-body experience. I found myself going through the motions, but also looking around trying to figure out where the ambush was coming from. Darcy slipped his arms around me, with much more ease than Colin had, and before I knew it, we were in something approximating an embrace. Darcy was several inches taller than me, and he leaned his head down so our eyes locked.
I was face-to-face with the enemy."
After winter break, the girls at the very prestigious Longbourn Academy become obsessed with the prom. Lizzie Bennet, who attends Longbourn on a scholarship, isn't interested in designer dresses and expensive shoes, but her best friend, Jane might be — especially now that Charles Bingley is back from a semester in London.
Lizzie is happy about her friend's burgeoning romance but less than impressed by Charles's frien, Will Darcy, who's snobby and pretentious. Darcy doesn't seem to like Lizzie either, but she assumes it's because her family doesn't have money. Clearly, Will Darcy is a pompous jerk — so why does Lizzie find herself drawn to him anyway?
Will Lizzie's pride and Wills prejudice keep them apart? Or are they a prom couple in the Making?
A shortened view of Austen's Pride and Prejudice, Eulberg adapts the well known story for a teen audience in which she centers the story around two posh New York City prep schools — Longbourn and Pemberly Acadamies.
Vapid rich mean girl types reign supreme at Longbourn and as one would expect they turn their noses up at the few scholarship students in attendance. They are cruel to these girls pulling hurtful pranks and making outcasts of them. As a result, the scholarship students are forced to endure higher levels of anxiety and stress and can find very little support or comfort. At the center of all this torment is Prom — the most highly-anticipated, exclusive and high-brow event on campus. An event that both encourages and intensifies the class war.
The story, while awesome conceptually, felt somewhat periphery. All of the big milestones are there, from Charles and Jane's separation to Wick and Lydia's running off, but overall the story felt a bit off to me. I wanted more depth, less story from 50-thousand feet and more at around 25-thousand. Moreover, I wanted to feel more of a connection. The original carries with it strong emotion and I didn't feel as much that here.
This limited emotion and lack of connection is firmly planted in the fact that I found Will lacking in the charisma of the original Darcy. He was a bit flat and with little focus on his character outside of the expected instances exhibiting his prejudice I didn't really feel like I cared one way or another if Lizzie ended up with him.
Despite this issue, the strength of this story is in how Eulberg adapted the characters to fit the teenage audience. Lizzie is a scholarship girl of little wealth who is befriended by Jane a girl of former wealth who is on her way down the ladder. Jane's sister Lydia is also a student at Longbourn and has all the tact and etiquette of a bull in a china shop. Wick is the ever present bitter vengeful outcast playing foe to one and all. Close friends Charles Bingley and Will Darcy attend neighboring Pemberly and are regular visitors to Longbourn where they see Bingley's sister Caroline (one of the aforementioned vapid rich mean girl types). Yes, she wants Darcy. Yes she wants to keep Jane from Charles. So though there are some differences in the relationships between how characters are placed on family trees some remain the same.
Eulerg is also a master of dialogue. Not one to ramble on unnecessarily her characters are well and appropriately spoken. When circumstances warrant there is great wit and humor then at other times anger, empathy, distress and a variety of other emotions all deftly expressed. There is no disguising her prowess with dialogue both internal and external.
Though I didn't love this book as much as I was anticipating I did enjoy it for the light and fun read that it is. It's a great piece of fluff with spots of angst for the reader who wants to see a bit of conflict. It follows closely (though in a unique and original way) Austen's original plot thus making it a fun way for a new generation to learn about the story of Pride and Prejudice.

This is a compilation of my freehand pencil drawings. The drawings are based on sci-fi and fantasy
About the AuthorRobert Beltran
bigrob45 SF Bay area, california
Robert Beltran was born on October 31st 1965 in Castro Valley Ca. I have been illustrating ever since I could hold a pencil, I would watch cartoons, sci-fi movies and read comics. Then I would draw them in my own unique way.Growing up in the bay area in my teen years I learned how to do murals and being a Mexican-American, I would do a lot of Chicano art. My heart though longed for sci and comics, loved that genre so much that I just started doing sci-fi fantasy. Years later I went to school and took my art to the next level. I have been drawing for over 30 years now, you would think that I would've grown up, but I still have the little kid in that loves all those great genres, Lord of the Rings, Batman and even Saturday morning cartoons. I love the fact that I can share my artwork with the world now!! Today I am a freelance graphic artist and work in different fields, I love what I do and have a passion for art.

I have replaced all my flatware with your Regency stainless steel. I had an Onieda set previously. I just love this more. I love the fact that I have more options in pieces at an affordable price and I couldn't ask for a higher quality. I Love a fork with large wide tines. These fit the bill perfectly. I have had many styles of forks throughout the years and I must be a bit OCD because cramped skinny tines just make my whole dining experience a bother.
Debra M. Posted on 07/29/2014
Good quality stainless steel flatware. Although it was a bit lighter weight than what I had, the design and ability to replace as needed was important. The European size fork and knife are larger pieces. Very happy with them.
Valerie A. Posted on 05/28/2014
I don't really have a desire for silver. And most american flatware sets, do not have for the FORMAL FORK. Called the European size. AND YES, it does make a difference in the dining performance, not just presentation. these forks are super heavy and have a mirror patina, that withstands many washes. I would not shop any where else. great buy.
Lolita C. from MOMMY IS A GENIUS Posted on 10/11/2013
i've used these forks for years, have purchased them through several different locations through the years, pricing tends to vary substantially. anyway, they are usually very reasonably priced, a steal even given their tremendous quality. what can i say, you would be extremely hard-pressed to find a nicer fork at these prices, they are fantastic - they're heavy, perfect for casual or formal, and they maintain their shine after years of heavy use.
Robert H. Posted on 06/19/2013
Very heavy weight, classic European-size dinner fork. If you like the flatware at your favorite restaurant -- or don't notice it because it's so comfortable to use -- this may very well be the flatware the restaurant uses.
James W. Posted on 01/22/2013
Beautiful, heavy, elegant silverware that still holds its shine after many trips through the dishwasher. Perfect for any occasion, whether for formal entertaining or everyday use.
Trevor W. Posted on 01/16/2013
The whole set of Regancy table ware is so nice. We started out with these and they are still going strong wash after wash. Feel exspensive, Beautiful shine.
Sheila M. from Sheila's Homestyle Posted on 12/08/2012
We have a large family and entertain formally often. These are elegant and very nicely weighted. I am thrilled and will be ordering more of these.
Carrie A. from Carrie Posted on 01/30/2012
Again, a wonderful product. I use at home. We are a rather large family and these have held up perfectly even with MANY wash cycles in the dish washer. Fantastic!!
Shea C. Posted on 04/05/2011
Purchased 24 each of the Regency Flatware European Size Table Fork to do an elavuation. Have used for appoximately two weeks. Have washed in the diswaher many times now. Exceptional 18/10 Quality. The shape of the handle is something that is pleasant to hold in your hand. A square handle end is somewhat harse. These have a very nice hand feel.
Bonnie A. Posted on 01/23/2011
Best flatware I have ever bought. Everyone comments on how nice it is. I love the larger size and the heavier weight of this product.

The National League's third straight All-Star game triumph had a distinct San Francisco flavor.
San Francisco's Pablo Sandoval had the big blow in the five-run first -- a three-run triple off Detroit's Justin Verlander -- to spark the NL's 8-0 victory. The NL roughed up last year's AL Cy Young Award winner for five runs during Verlander's 35-pitch first inning.
The 8-0 triumph was the most lopsided National League victory in All-Star history -- and third largest of all time.
San Francisco's Melky Cabrera added a two-run homer as the NL added three more in the fourth inning. He was named MVP. And the Giants' Matt Cain was the winning pitcher with two shutout innings. That was followed by a shutout inning apiece by Washington's Gio Gonzalez and Stephen Strasburg and the L.A. Dodgers' Clayton Kershaw.
Mets knuckleballer R.A. Dickey, who has authored two one-hitters this season, pitched a one-hit sixth inning. Cole Hamels, Craig Kimbrel, Aroldis Chapman, Wade Miley, Joel Hanrahan and Jonathan Papelbon finished the six-hitter.
The 40-year-old Chipper Jones got a standing ovation when he came to bat in the sixth inning. In his eighth and final All-Star game, Jones delivered a pinch-hit, seeing-eye single. He is retiring at the end of the season.
The National League how has a 43-38-2 advantage over the American League in All-Star competition.
That means the NL champion gets home field advantage in the World Series.

No Budget: Day 86
It's been 86 days since the governor called the first special session of the Legislature to address the state's projected $42 billion budget shortfall.
Every day the state goes without an approved revised budget, it loses $40 million, and every hour, $1.7 million, according to the Office of the Governor.
The Star asks local residents what they think legislators and the governor should do to solve the budget crisis.
Residents are given the opportunity to call their legislators on the spot to tell them what should be done. They are also offered the chance to express their views on videotape.
Every day until a revised budget is approved, The Star will publish comments from local residents about the crisis.
n n n
Suzanne Vadnais, 68, Camarillo, retired legal secretary/cooking instructor.
Problem: The special interest groups are lining up. Taking from the rich and giving to the poor is not my idea of a good way to distribute funds.
Protect: I don't want hospitals or healthcare to suffer.
Comments: I admire Audra Strickland for what she's doing, giving her time to speak to the issue of the community. She is very well-versed and dedicated.
Call or videotape: Declined.
— Star staff writer Kim Lamb Gregory

Augusta, GA (WJBF) -- Jaguars Head Men's Golf Coach Kevin McPherson says he had "no doubt" Patrick Reed would win on the PGA Tour. The former August State Jaguar and current PGA Tour rookie Patrick Reed picked up his first career win Sunday at the Wyndham Championship in Greensboro, North Carolina.
McPherson was an assistant with the ASU men's golf team when they captured back to back national titles in 2011. Reed was one of the key cogs in those teams going 6-0 in match play at the NCAA Championships. McPherson says he always knew Reed would win at golf's highest level because he has all the tools and "putts it better than anyone I've ever seen."
McPherson also says that Sunday's victory is great for the Jaguars golf program. On multiple occasions, the CBS announcers mentioned that Reed was a 2-time national champion at Augusta State. McPherson says they even got a plug in for Forest Hills.
The current Jaguars men's golf team begins their fall schedule at the Olympia Fields Fighting Illini Invitational (at Olympia Fields in Illinois home of the 2003 U.S. Open).

As some may have noticed, there were one or two posts over the season concerning our offensive play calling. So I thought that the following excerpt from ESPN Magazine might be of interest to some:
"From 2007-2012, the team that passed more efficiently in the first quarter won 61% of the time, versus 56% for the team that ran more efficiently. Add in the fact that teams that ran more in the fourth quarter won about 84% of the games and this much is clear: Advocates of 'establishing the run' have the cause and effect backward. Teams don't win because they establish the run early; they win because they establish the pass early and run the ball late to protect their lead."

Ok I've never posted my own trades on the site but I figured since everyone else was I could at least entertain myself (and perhaps some of you), with a trade that would probably never happen (of course most of those proposed here wouldn't). However it would be legal and provide equal value to all concerned. Beyond that I figured there is at least a chance that Brian Shaw is hired as head coach and Dwight changes his mind (again) and re-ups with the Magic; which is of course the best option.
That being said something fun to think about: (at least for those of you who enjoy contemplating such things)
Los Angeles Lakers Receive: Dwight Howard C ORL, Glenn Davis PF ORL, Kyle Lowry PG HOU, Jason Richardson SG ORL, Chris Duhon PG ORL, Earl Clark F/C ORL, Orlando's 1st Round Pick #19 this season, a top 5 protected conditional 2014 1st rounder from Charlotte.
Houston Rockets Receive: Paul Gasol PF/C LAL, Bismark Biyombo C CHA, Gerald Henderson SG CHA, Tyrus Thomas PF CHA, Christian Eyenga SF LAL, Reggie Williams SF CHA
Charlotte Bobcats Receive: Andrew Bynum C LAL, Luis Scola PF HOU, J.J. Redick SG ORL, Steve Blake PG LAL, Quentin Richardson SF ORL, Andrew Goudelock PG/SG LAL
Orlando Magic Receive: Kemba Walker PG CHA, Kevin Martin SG HOU, Corey Maggette SF CHA, S. Dalembert C HOU, Josh McRoberts PF LAL, Patrick Peterson PF CHA, Charlotte's 1st Round Pick #2 overall this season.
(Just for the record – yes this trade works under current NBA rules – as soon as the season ends and Charlotte's existing contracts expire they have the cap space for this one)
Why Jerry Bus of the Lakers just might go for this one after a late night mohito? – Believe it or not Kobe Bryant is 35 the Lakers window is closing this brings them two key pieces to help take advantage of Kobe's closing championship window as well as gives them a clear All-NBA player in Howard and the best point guard they have had in the past decade (Fisher was good but Lowry is the kind of on the ball defender who can handle a Russell Westbrook/Tony Parker type). Steven A. Smith reported that the Lakers certainly wanted to move past either Blake or Sessions to add a PG, and while Davis is clearly no Gasol – he does play better as a starter and has playoff experience. Add in two 1st round picks and they could add in some inexpensive depth.
Laker Starting 5: Lowry PG, Bryant SG, M.World Peace SF, G. Davis PF , D. Howard C , with Jason Richardson, Ramon Sessions, Matt Barnes, and Earl Clark working off the bench.
Why Houston would sign on the dotted line? They finally get the "star" player in Paul Gasol they want and better for them it's not a rental. They also get to keep their two first round picks to add players and would presumably re-sign Dragic. They also add promising young center Bismark Biyombo and developmental SG Gerald Henderson. They wouldn't be thrilled taking on Tyrus Thomas but they have always been willing to take 1 bad deal in order to land a star.
Rocket Starting 5: Dragic PG, Henderson/Lee SG, R. Williams SF, Gasol PF, Biyombo C with Tyrus Thomas , Lee/Henderson, and M.Morris off the bench (along with any NBA ready player they draft).
Why Michael Jordan would get on board ? Charlotte won just 7 games last season, his team is in basketball country in North Carolina where Duke and UNC are the talk of the town. Not only does he get an All-Star Center (and with Dwight headed west the best center in the East) but he's actually got a playoff roster (not a contender but a winner). He sets a condition of resigning Bynum for his 2014 pick and his Bobcats don't play in front of an empty arena; he'd have Duke Darling J.J. Redick there to sell tickets too. Granted his bench would be terrible, but right now his starters are getting 7 wins so – yeah. If he can somehow find a legit SF in the off-season he might really have something going. Plus he'd be WAYY better than 7 wins – he might actually win more than he loses.
Bobcat Starting 5: Blake PG, J.J. Redick SG, Q.Richardson SF, L.Scola PF, Bynum C, with Matt Carrol , Desagana Diop , Byron Mullins, and whatever warm bodies he can scout up.
Why Orlando would be wise to take it? We get to clear the deck, everyone we acquire except for Kimba Walker is on an expiring contract. In Walker we get the best rookie PG not named Rubio and Walker is younger and should be less of a defensive liability when matured. The #2 pick could be used on presumably Kentucky SF Michael Kidd Gilchrist. If we keep Ryan Anderson, come next off-season we would have only those 3 players and the albatross Hedo under contract. We'd be WOEFUL next season especially given our lack of front court presence. We'd be back in the lottery but also have a payroll of about 25 million (give or take) enough space to add a couple of great players while also owning an expiring deal in Turk.
Magic Starting 5: Walker PG, K. Martin SG, Kidd-Gilchrist SF, R. Anderson PF, S. Dalembert C. with C. Magette / Turkoglu P. Patterson/McRoberts, and whatever backcourt player we could find.
Also – Yes this would set an NBA record with 24 players traded that would be unlikely to be challenged – as I said 1 chance in a million to happen, maybe worse, but slightly better odds than the lottery and would certainly give the Magic a clean slate with promising pieces. It would give the Lakers a Championship contender now and after Kobe is gone, the Rockets get their star player, the Bobcats get to be respectable while also acquiring an All-Star C. And if you don't like it ....at the very least given the complexity hopefully it have you chuckle.

A traffic stop on Interstate 20 in Rankin County Monday night led to the arrest of a Mississippi's top 10 most wanted suspect.
According to the Mississippi Highway Patrol, Jhointea Marquette Williams, 33, of Gulfport, was wanted by the Mississippi Department of Narcotics, police departments in Pearl, Richland, Biloxi and Gulfport and the Mobile County Sheriff's Department.
Williams is wanted on numerous charges, including false pretense, uttering forgery, fraud, writing bad checks, computer fraud and embezzlement.
MHP Director Col. Donnell Berry says troopers found numerous items in the truck Williams was driving that are believed to be stolen.

Jennifer Knapp Radio
Alternative CCM folk-rocker Jennifer Knapp debuted in 1994 with a self-released cassette that sold over 2,000 copies in its first year. Her first full-length CD, Wishing Well, appeared two years later; its success brought Knapp to the attention of the Gotee Records label, which issued her LP Kansas, produced by Audio Adrenaline frontman Mark Stuart, in 1998. The Grammy-nominated Lay It Down arrived in early 2000, followed by the biographical storybook of The Way I Am in 2001. Knapp put her public career on hiatus for the remainder of the decade, before reappearing in 2010 with the more secular Letting Go. ~ Jason AnkenyPortions of Content Provided by Rovi Corporation.

According to noted oddsmaker Nick Kalikas of BetOnFighting.com, it's none other than Light Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones. "Bones" opens as a massive -475 favorite headed into his showdown against Rashad Evans, which is still awaiting a date, time and place.
"Suga" comes in as the major underdog at +325.
Anyone jumping on this line with wallets wide open? Or do you expect a dramatic shift as we get closer and closer to fight night?
It's no surprise, really, that Jones is getting so much love from oddsmakers. The 24-year-old phenom has run through every opponent put across from him, including becoming just the second man to submit Quinton Jackson at UFC 135 on this past Sept. 24.
Does the same fate await Evans somewhere down the road? Or does his inside knowledge of Jones tendencies give him an edge that no other light heavyweight will enjoy?
Evans finally returned from a long layoff on Aug. 6 at UFC 133 to rematch Tito Ortiz in a 205-pound bout to determine if he was still ready to challenge for the division title.
Test passed ... with flying colors.
"Suga" Rashad dominated the contest having his way with "The Huntington Beach Bad Boy." He's doing what he can to convince us he'll do the same to his former teammate but should we believe him?
Can Evans end the Jonny "Bones" Era before it ever picks up any steam?
We're still a ways away from fight time, Maniacs, but who do you like for your money and who ya' got straight up?

Lions sign PK Rayner
PK Dave Rayner has been signed by the Lions, who are looking for a fill-in kicker with Jason Hanson expected to miss the next three weeks with a sprained MCL.
Report: Stafford may be out for the season
The Lions fear that QB Matthew Stafford may be done for the season with a Grade 3 separation on his right shoulder, according to MLive.com.
Stafford's durability, not toughness, the problem
Suggesting Lions QB Matthew Stafford is fragile might be taking it too far, but saying he is injury-prone isn't out of reason.
Stafford re-injures shoulder in loss
Lions QB Matthew Stafford re-injured his right shoulder in Sunday's overtime loss to the Jets. Head coach Jim Schwartz said after the game that Stafford is "very sore."
Crowder, Scott accuse opponents of dirty play
Dolphins LB Channing Crowder accused Ravens FB Le'Ron McClain of spitting in his face and Jets LB Bart Scott called the Lions the dirtiest team he has played since the Titans.
Sanchez-led Jets rally to beat Lions 23-20 in OT

Lions' Backus bounces back from early miscue
After giving up a sack in Week One that resulted in an injury to QB Matthew Stafford, Detroit OLT Jeff Backus has played very well since then, according to NFC North Whispers.
Cunningham credits Kocurek for Lions' DL creativity
Given all the talent the Lions have on their defensive line, it's easy to just line them up and let them go. But in Week Eight, they were very creative with their fronts.
Lions avoid blackout in game vs. Jets
Lions president Tom Lewand said Sunday's game against the Jets has sold out and the local television blackout will be lifted.
Johnson thrilled to have Stafford back
While all of Lions Nation was excited to see QB Matthew Stafford back on the field Sunday, WR Calvin Johnson might have been the happiest of all.
Stafford lifts Lions to 37-25 win over Redskins
Matthew Stafford's fourth touchdown pass converted a fourth down with 3:12 left and the Detroit Lions scored nine points in 14 seconds to turn a closely contested game into a 37-25 win over the Washington Redskins on Sunday.
Lions hope to strike gold again at corner
The Lions' philosophy the past few seasons has been that they will take a chance on young, talented football players, and nowhere has that been more evident — and successful — than at cornerback.
Lions looking at blackout for Sunday's home game vs. Redskins
It's looking very likely that the Lions will have their first local TV blackout of the 2010 season on Sunday, as 10,000 tickets were still available for the Week Eight home game against the Redskins as of Wednesday ...
Lions MLB Levy returns to practice
Lions MLB DeAndre Levy returned to the individual portion of practice on Tuesday for the first time since spraining his ankle in Week Three.
Hill has taken snaps with the first-string offense, making it appear he will start against the Miami Dolphins.||||||| Hill practiced Wednesday with his injured right finger taped after missing three straight games. Drew Stanton hurt his left shoulder Sunday at Tampa Bay as he led Detroit to a second straight win. Matthew Stafford wasn't on the field during the early parts of practice open to the media. He will likely miss his seventh straight game since aggravating his separated right shoulder. The team hasn't put Stafford on injured reserve, hoping he might be able to return.
Hill has been declared inactive for Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers.||||||| Hill will miss his second straight game as Drew Stanton will start under center for the Lions.
Hill is back working with Detroit's first team offense. Hill, who broke his left arm against the New York Giants on Oct. 17, worked with the first team Wednesday during the portion of practice open to reporters.||||||| Either Hill or Drew Stanton figures to start Sunday at Buffalo after Matthew Stafford hurt his right shoulder last weekend against the New York Jets.
Hill threw for 227 yards and matched a career-high with three touchdown passes in Sunday's 44-6 win over St. Louis.||||||| Hill led the Lions to their first victory of the season, and has filled in admirably for Matthew Stafford as he continues to put up big time fantasy numbers every Sunday.
Hill threw for 331 yards and two touchdowns to Calvin Johnson for the Lions in a 28-26 loss at Green Bay on Sunday.||||||| Matthew Stafford's backup nearly led the Lions to a major upset. It's unclear how long Stafford will remain out, but Detroit has not been afraid to let Hill throw the ball and he could be an option next week against St. Louis for fantasy owners in need of a fill-in.

The New York Jets are one of the few teams in the NFL that are tight against the salary cap heading into the 2012 NFL offseason. This will make it tough for the Jets to easily keep some key players on their team by placing the franchise tag on them, including defensive lineman Sione Pouha. It's unlikely the Jets will franchise Pouha, opting instead to try for a long term deal, according to Jenny Vrentas of The Star-Ledger.
Sione Pouha, arguably Jets' most key FA, not expected to be tagged, source says. Jets tight on cap space, should go for multi-yr deal. #nyj— Jenny Vrentas (@JennyVrentas) February 20, 2012
Pouha took over the starting nose tackle position during the 2009 season and has been a key cog in the Jets' defense ever since. The franchise tag number for defensive tackles is around $8 million, which the Jets cannot currently afford to pay Pouha in one season on the cap. According to Vrentas, the Jets are expected to work for a longer deal with the nose tackle.

Dasha Kononovich Plastic Surgery
Written by Jetset Babe, Posted in Jetset Beauty
Dasha Kononovich Plastic Surgery
As written a few days ago about the plastic surgery of Olesya Malinskaya, her partner in crime Dasha Kononovich has got some work done too. In this case I would say Dasha looked 100x better before all the surgery, in fact it made her age with 10-20 years in some pictures!
What do you think she's had done? Breasts, Lips, Nose & Botox for sure. Probably cheek fillers as well. Do you guys now?
Anyway, my advice: Take it easy under the knife Dasha Kononovich!

Enthusiastic bot, excited about comments section, asks a good question [emphasis mine]:
I can imagine this is actually a lot cheaper than therapy or medication for some persons. Can we include pics of our cats? How about recipes for vegan cupcakes? There is really a chance I might have interesting things to write about. What is the statistical probability that the reader will care? Fantastic idea! You are all wonderful. Please advise.
Mmmmm—vegan cupcakes.

Classical 101 Archives For: May 6, 2014
The Fifty States – in Music – Saturday on The American Sound
Ohio is at once Rosie the Riveter and the gracious farmer's wife. (For some reason, I've always imagined Ohio as a girl.) Massachusetts, the cut-to-the-chase, it's-too-cold-to-waste-time-doing-this place for serious people. And if California were a guy, he'd wear one of those loud Hawaiian shirts.

Macbook Air vs Macbook Pro 13" Retina vs the rest
I currently have the White 13" late 2006 Macbook and I am in the desperate need of an upgrade. I was hoping for 13" retina Macbook Pro in June, but had to evidently wait until now, for my wish to be fulfilled. Now ... What type of Computer to buy? Frankly, I am more lost than ever on what type of machine I should buy ...
Macbook Air
For me design-wise the perfect machine and also the interiors are great, the only thing that really really bothers me is the "low-resolution" display.
Macbook Pro 13" Retina
The perfect machine! However in comparison with the Macbook Air the higher price tag - only because of the retina display - does not seem justified.
The rest
There are great competitors out there, Lenovo and Asus seem to make great, however the market is so fragmented I would not know where to start researching.
Having said that, I live in Shanghai and I am going to Hong Kong this weekend and the prices here are somewhat different from the US and Europe. With the education-discount the Macbook Air will set me back 1224 USD (with the 8GB RAM upgrade), the Pro 1577 USD and I cannot really put a price tag on "the rest". In light of the upcoming CPU upgrade, for what option should I go? Further, I wouldn't mind switching back to Windows again, but what are the options here? Lastly, the Macbook Air seems somewhat outdated, would I be buying an old piece of hardware? Your advice is much appreciated!

Southaven Mayor Greg Davis took the stand Thursday in his civil trial in Hinds County Chancery Court in Jackson.
Mississippi State Auditor Stacey Pickering is trying to get Mayor Davis to re-pay taxpayer money, which was spent on trips, meals and clothes.
The state auditor's investigator has testified on the stand that there is no regulation requiring receipts. Southaven city Clerk Sheila Heath has stated that the city did not have a policy where elected officials had to provide receipts.
As for the law regarding receipts, Judge Dewayne Thomas says he will ultimately decide that in this case.
Mayor Davis was questioned about the receipts while he was on the stand.
Mayor Davis testified about the receipts he provided to the state auditor's office. He testified about receipts that he supplied to the state auditor's office, many of them for drinks and meals as well as reimbursement for mileage.
There is still a long list of witnesses to go in this case and there is much doubt in the courtroom that this case will wrap up by Friday.

WASHINGTON – A European Union representative spoke Wednesday with an Iranian
counterpart to set up another round of talks between Tehran and world
State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said that a deputy
to EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton had spoken to an Iranian negotiator
to set up a possible time and place to meet along with the rest of the so-called
P5+1, which includes the US, Britain, France, Germany, Russia and
"We continue to make clear to the Iranian side that in that
structure the door remains open to talks if they are serious," Nuland said,
including in a bilateral framework.
She indicated that she was not
familiar with Israeli reports saying Washington had told Tehran it would hold
separate one-on-one discussions with a four- to five-month timeframe without
consulting with Israel.
But she stressed that Israel was "our ally and
partner, and we consult with them regularly and are completely
Nuland also said the United States was talking openly with
Israel about the latter's actions toward the Palestinian Authority and the
withholding of tax revenues in the wake of the Palestinians' bid for partial
recognition at the UN.
"We are making clear to the government of Israel
that we think funding of the Palestinian Authority is necessary ," she said. "It
should work with the PA to address the issues that they have and that all sides
need to take steps to reduce tensions, to build trust, to create the kind of
climate that's going to get us back to direct talks."
Nuland also
strongly denied rumors that the US had a backchannel to Hamas, a notion that has
been circulating amid third-party ceasefire talks between Hamas and Israel in
the wake of last month's violence in Gaza.
"There have been some bizarre
claims out there that Hamas has a backchannel to the US government," Nuland
said. "These assertions are completely untrue. There is no such
She added that the American position on Hamas had not
changed and that the fiery comments made recently during Hamas leader Khaled
Mashaal's visit to Gaza reinforced the fact that Hamas "is not a partner for

declared, "it cannot be a partner in any negotiations."

It may not have been pretty, but the Mississippi State Bulldogs improved to 3-3 on the season with a 21-20 win against Bowling Green.
The Bulldogs got off to a good start with a touchdown on their opening possession. Dak Prescott put Mississippi State up 14-3 later in the first quarter when he broke free for a 75-yard touchdown run. While it looked like it was going to be all Mississippi State early, the Bulldogs scored just seven points in the final three quarters with Bowling Green playing its way back into the game.
The teams traded touchdowns in the second quarter before the Falcons connected on a 45-yard field goal as the half expired. Bowling Green made it 10 unanswered points with 76-yard touchdown drive in the third quarter. From there, the offenses were unable to capitalize.
Mississippi State drove to the Bowling Green 8-yardline, but failed to convert a 4th-and-3 and gave the ball back on downs. The Falcons needed a field goal to pull off the upset, but were unable to capitalize, giving the ball back on downs after driving near midfield.
Bowling Green had one final chance after taking over with three seconds to play. Its last-ditch effort came up short and the Bulldogs held on for the win.
Box Score Hero:
Prescott carried Mississippi State offensively, finishing with 139 yards and two touchdowns on 15 carries. He also completed 7-of-11 passes for 75 yards.
Rankings Ramifications:
Neither team is likely to garner consideration in next week's rankings.
But Did They Cover?
The Bulldogs opened as an 8-1/2-point favorite and although they held on for the win, they failed to cover the spread.

Tips and tricks for easy Perl programming in Vim
The Vim editor has any number of tricks for helping you avoid unnecessary typing. In this month's article, we look at some effort-saving Vim techniques for Perl hackers.
There is probably no other decision in a programmer's life that is so important and so irrevocable as their choice of an editor. Once you opt for Vi or Emacs, you will tend to stick to your guns and attempt to coax the last ounce of performance out of your favorite tool. Once you decide on an editor, it is better to learn as much as you can about it. More effective use of an editor not only reduces the danger of Carpal tunnel syndrome, but also helps you code far more quickly and with fewer typos. The Vim (Vi Improved) editor has a number of advantages over its venerable predecessor Vi. Over the years, Vim has been extended dramatically to support hard core programmers; it is highly configurable and plug-in extensible – in fact, Vim can be tailored to suit almost anyone's taste or style of working.

I been thinking alot about who the blazers could sign as a center or backup center. Camby May not be back for another two weeks! So who do we go to? Another old man who cant play or hustle. SURE they help out mentally for the team and in the locker room and huddles but outside of that and bringing energy what else? Howard, Oberto, Marks. TERRIBLE at rebounding or hustling. Thats part off the reason we lost to the suns last year in the playoffs howard had to grab someones jersey to stick with them and he would get called for a foul.
Sooo, Lets hear about some D-League players or Young Free agents. I would rather have Hustle than another old worn out veteran. I mean look at Anthony Tolliver, and Today when Chris Johnson played for the Celtics. Both showing Alot of hustle and a decent amounts of defense. Johnson had 3 blocks tonight!
I dont care about Johnny Flynn Or Troy Murphy. Honestly They arent that great or even CENTERS.

Yup... I'd like to know too!
Anyone had those kinda big headless zits on your chin?
How do you get rid of it fast?
Usually I would use any soothing/calming mask to reduce the swelling and redness, and also to "calm" them down. Then I'll apply pimple gel on it for a few days continuously if it doesn't subside. But then again, it always reduces itself into scars that are hard to get rid of. Like different coloured spots from my skin colour. For me, it usually takes a longer time to subside and heal as compared to other areas of my face.
Also, try not to agitate it by exfoliating your face when you have pimples/acnes. It will only multiply and worsen.
I will use st ives blemish scrub and apply a layer on the pimple (i will not scrub) as it contains salicylic acid. Next I will rinse off and apply Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask either on my whole face or the pimple itself (I will scrub my whole face, avoiding the pimple if I were to put the mask on my whole face).
Next, I will use either some calming masks or Guardian acne mask.
After which, henry tianus soothing blemish gel.
The next morning, it will look smaller and I will continue with my spot treatment using QHMJM the next morning if I have time, and apply the soothing blemish gel.
If I'm at home all the way, I will apply the soothing blemish gel in around every 3-4 hours (I don't know if I'm allowed to do so, but it works so I don't care )
After around 2 days of QHMJM spot treatment and the pimple gel, the pimple will either have head, or it will shrink till a small bump - where it will form a scab and fall off while I wash my face and there will be nothing left.
Last edited by happymin; 03-03-2009 at 01:36 PM.
wow, that's a lot of steps, happymin. But whatever works, i hate these zits! they take forever to subside and i got a wedding to attend.
BTW, where can i get the Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask and henry tianus soothing blemish gel?
shootingstars: i have the same problem too! They scar very easily even without squeezing.
Here's what I do:
To bring them to a head, dab a bit of organic raw honey and put on a plaster before heading to bed.
May need a continuous treatment of 3 nights to see effects.
I know some girls have nothing that work for their headless pimple and it just keeps growing. They would poke a sterile needle through the middle squeeze then use something soothing and anti bacterial etc afterwards. I don't try though, the mere thought of the needle scares me
No scrubbing during this period, and I avoid applying moisturiser/whitening stuff/essence etc on that area before it goes away, because that will be like "feeding" the acne. I use only my PCA Skin Phaze 33Acne Cream on it (nothing with salicylic acid because it's useless) for the next few nights, sometimes alternating with deep cleansing masks (QHMJ, Origins CI) until it goes away.
Usually these cystic acne take a long time to go away. Mine usually takes 2 weeks I used to have ALOT of them on my chin too, and my doctor said it is due to hormonal changes in the body. It gets really bad during my menses, because they would appear in clusters! It took a majorly long time for them to clear and by then my entire chin area has bad reddish scars.
My GP recommended me to take a BCP called Diane35 (can check the Oral Medications for Acne thread) and it's been working great so far. I haven't had a major cystic acne in a year *touch wood* and my skin remains very clear till date, with only the occasional blemish.
where can i get Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask ??
My chin zits always appear in clusters... i have like 3 very stubborn ones now. N it always leave me with real ugly scars.
Using neomedrol acne lotion. Helps to reduce the swell of those cystic acne but will leave a mark... n that is what i HATE most... cystic pimples always leave me with very ugly scars.
prettyeagle: If i remember correctly, u order PCA products from drugstore.com? But when i went to the website.. there are no selection option for singapore buyers.... any idea where can get PCA locally?
Sandradee: Will it leave a dent on the pimple after injection?
Hey, do you guys with these kind of zits have the same problem? Mine comes up red and angry but has no head.......subsides after a while. But!!!! The same stupid zit will show again at the same place when I am heaty or close to that time of the month and this goes on and on.
henry tianus soothing blemish gel, henry tianus
for the jab, my skin doctor told me about it before. i didn't ask him about the price, but i guess i will only go take the jab if i have something really big to attend (siblings'/cousins'/my wedding)

Back when I was a wee child I wished I had some sort of crazy connection to an MLB player. Was I the forgotten third cousin of Cal Ripken Jr? Mike Mussina's son's best friend?
In real life this wasn't quite the case. But I do have one kinda cool almost-connection with a former Major Leaguer, Bill Miller.
My dad is a doctor and one of his co-workers asked my dad if he would like to go fishing with this guy named Bill Miller. Turns out Bill's wife was terrified that Bill would have a heart attack all alone in the boat and liked the idea of having a doctor with him. My dad, who always enjoyed fishing, decided to go for it and got to know Bill. Bill (who has since passed) wasn't too exciting of a guy, just your average old man. Except that he played in the Majors. Bill's career was far from extraordinary. He pitched 131.2 innings in 41 games over stretches of four seasons. He had a 1.633 WHIP and a -1.1 WAR. He was a 'player to be named' in the trade that took Don Larsen from the O's to the Yankees. But he played. I remember as a kid my dad telling me about Bill and that he won a world series with the Yankees. Now I of course hate the Yankees, as any good American citizen would do, but even I thought this was cool. While he didn't play in the WS, he did get a ring. He actually ended up his career as an Oriole, playing 5 games in 1955. He did his best Pedro Strop impression by walking 10 in 4 innings and that was it.
I consider myself lucky to currently have an autographed ball that Bill Miller passed along to me along with the signatures of some other former big leaguers such as Mickey Vernon. Bill may not have been a star, in fact he was far from it. But I still have that autographed ball sitting on my TV stand, and ever since I was a kid I will randomly try to find out more about him. To me Bill Miller was a hero. And that's pretty cool.

REHOBOTH BEACH, Del. - A Rehoboth Beach sex offender is wanted by Police.
Delaware State Police Sex Offender Apprehension and Registration Unit say they are looking for 24-year-old Marc Romano, after he apparently failed to re-register his current address with them. Roman is also reportedly wanted by the Sussex County Superior Court for three violations of probation.
Romano, a high risk offender, is described as a white male, 5' 5" tall, 183 pounds, with blond hair and blue eyes. Police say Romano's last known address was the Econo Lodge on Coastal Highway.
Police are asking anyone with information on Romano's whereabouts to contact SOAR at 302-672-5306 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-TIP-3333. Tips can also be submitted to the DSP Mobile Crime App, texting DSP to CRIMES (274637), or by visiting the TipSubmit website.
