Adenosine plays a major modulatory and neuroprotective role in the mammalian CNS. During cerebral metabolic stress, such as hypoxia or ischemia, the increase in extracellular adenosine inhibits excitatory synaptic transmission onto vulnerable neurons via presynaptic adenosine A1 receptors, thereby reducing the activation of postsynaptic glutamate receptors. Using a combination of extracellular and whole-cell recordings in the CA1 region of hippocampal slices from 12- to 24-d-old rats, we have found that this protective depression of synaptic transmission weakens with repeated exposure to hypoxia, thereby allowing potentially damaging excitation to both persist for longer during oxygen deprivation and recover more rapidly on reoxygenation. This phenomenon is unlikely to involve A1 receptor desensitization or impaired nucleoside transport. Instead, by using the selective A1 antagonist 8-cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine and a novel adenosine sensor, we demonstrate that adenosine production is reduced with repeated episodes of hypoxia. Furthermore, this adenosine depletion can be reversed at least partially either by the application of exogenous adenosine, but not by a stable A1 agonist, N6-cyclopentyladenosine, or by endogenous means by prolonged (2 hr) recovery between hypoxic episodes. Given the vital neuroprotective role of adenosine, these findings suggest that depletion of adenosine may underlie the increased neuronal vulnerability to repetitive or secondary hypoxia/ischemia in cerebrovascular disease and head injury.

ALEXANDRIA, La. – Detectives say they found $600 worth of crack cocaine in Albert Herron, Jr.'s home Wednesday.
On Sept. 12, the Rapides Parish Sheriff's Office Metro Division obtained a warrant to search Herron's home at 1655 Karla Street, Apt. 3 in Alexandria.
Detectives say they started the investigation because a few weeks ago, they received numerous phone complaints about suspected drug sales in the apartment complex.
Herron was charged with possession of CDS II to distribute crack cocaine. He booked into the Rapides Parish Jail where he is being held on a $20,000 bond and probation violation. He also has two contempt of court warrants.

Despite Social Security's long-term problems, the massive retirementand disability program could be preserved for generations to come with modest but politically difficult changes to benefits or taxes, or a combination of both. The options for closing the gap between scheduled benefits and projected tax revenue fall into two broad categories: cutting benefits or raising taxes. There are, however, many options within each category.
The AP used data from the Social Security Administration to calculate how much of the shortfall would be eliminated by various options. To illustrate how Social Security's long-term finances have become worse in the past two years, the AP also calculated the share of the shortfall that would have been eliminated, if the options had been adopted in 2010.

Surrounded by abandoned buildings and dirt roads, it's easy to feel as though you've stepped strait onto the set of an old western film when visiting Historical Jay Em on the Rawhide.
"Our grandfather, Lake Harris, was the one who founded the town of Jay Em. He homesteaded here in 1912," says Margie Sanborn, granddaughter of the late Lake Harris.
Jay Em is named after successful Wyoming cattleman, James Moore, whose ranch was situated two miles north of the town's site.
When Moore died in 1895, Lake, his father, and his two brothers took over the Jay Em Cattle Company.
"That's when lake had to wait until he was 21 years old to file for his homestead. But he did that with mind of building a town because there was starting to be an influx of homesteaders," says Sanborn.
What makes Jay Em so unique, is that it was founded solely because of the area's homesteaders, and was not a result of industrial growth or the rail road industry. This was a rare occurrence for the times.
As the town grew, so did the demand for supplies.
"They had a little commissary at the Ranch but they needed more things and products so people didn't have to go clear to Lusk or Lingle or Laramie to get supplies for their homesteads."
The Harris General Store moved to Jay Em in 1918 and Lake constructed a lumber and general supply store shortly after.
Before moving into it's own store, the grocery was located in Lake's home. And some of the products on the shelves are actually still there from when the grocery store was up and running.
Hazel and Margie don't charge for the tours they give, although donations are appreciated for the town's upkeep. They simply want to share their family's legacy with others while they still can.
"We're both in our 70's, so how much longer are we going to be able to do all of this?" asks Hazel rhetorically.
Both women hope that their family will continue to carry on tours of the town when they are no longer able.
Margie says it's important to them, "Because it's carrying on for grandpa."

A Bay area baby is recovering beautifully, after finally getting the heart transplant she's waited half her young life for. Jaelyn Anderson had a rare disorder that made her heart too big for her body.
Thursday, her parents found out their daughter was finally getting the transplant she needed to survive.
Ten-month-old Jaelyn Anderson was swiftly skirted into a four-hour surgery Thursday evening.
By Friday morning, she proved once again that her strength far exceeds her pint-sized frame. Her fragile body accepted her new heart flawlessly. She was off a bypass machine less than an hour after leaving the operating room.
"I am so amazed. I am so happy. The tears I have today are tears of joy. They're not scared anymore," Jaelyn's mom, Brooke Anderson said Friday.
Friday morning, Jaelyn was uncomfortable in her hospital crib.
"You can tell in her face that she's sore. She looks at you and she's like, 'Why am I here? What did you do to me?' " Jaelyn's dad, Joshua Anderson said.
Jaelyn's parents say she's a survivor. She defied even doctor's expectations.
"It was my scary because my little girl could have crashed on us at any time. The doctors and nurses didn't expect her to make it three weeks, tops. And she made it five months," Brooke Anderson said.
Jaelyn will recover for the next few weeks at All Children's Hospital in St. Petersburg. The Andersons will then have to live close by for a month or so, in case there are any complications with her new heart.
Jaelyn's parents hope to have her home by her first birthday in May.

I cannot find solution in ISPG Ch9.5 v2.1.
Let me elaborate my question a little bit. I am talking about Prime billing only. For paper ticket/FIM, unless Lost Document Billing, original document is required now. Post SIS, I assume image of ticket coupon/FIM is required. A billing carrier might link two attachments for a coupon in Prime Billing. How could the billed carrier know which of those two is image of original coupon without a designated definition?
Following is the proposal from the SIS Working Groups to the RA Working Group. The RAWG will use the following list as a base for discussion to determine which documents will be made mandatory or optional in SIS.
Following is the proposal from the SIS Working Groups to the RA Working Group. The RAWG will use the following list as a base for discussion to determine which documents will be made mandatory or optional in SIS.
On further research of minutes of the SIS WGs, the proposal is that FIMs will require supporting documents but a normal paper prime billing will not.
Of course, the above is the proposal for the mandatory RAM rule. Partners can choose to require more on a bilateral basis.
As this was already discussed by the WGs, it's been closed as a change request.

John McAfee States Alibi on the Record, Retains Lawyer
Yesterday, December 4, VICE broke the news that anti-virus mogul and "person of interest" in a Belizean murder case John McAfee has retained the services of high-power attorney Telésforo Guerra after fleeing to Guatemala. Later that afternoon, John and his lawyer held a press meeting during which he announced that he had documentation proving "the intense corruption at all levels of the Belizean government." On the ride over to the press meeting, John stated on the record that Sam Vanegas, his girlfriend, was with him in her bedroom on John's property on the night of the murder of his neighbor and fellow US citizen Greg Faull. He also said that several other witnesses could corroborate his whereabouts that evening. More details regarding this matter will be forthcoming over the next few days and weeks.

Crest Weekly Clean Intensive Cleaning Paste
In the never ending quest for whiter teeth I have found yet another product. Introducing Crest Weekly Clean Intensive Cleaning Paste, a weekly intensive cleaner in the form of a toothpaste. When I first saw this product I didn't think twice about trying it out. To me, a toothpaste is the easiest way to whiten/clean teeth. So much easier to use compared to strips and gels with whitening trays. The suggested retail price of only $4.25 was also assuring. Really, how many cleaning/whitening products are that cheap? I have been using it for about a month now and can honestly say that I do see a nice change in my teeth. While this product does not claim to be a whitening product, only a cleaning product, it does polish and clean your teeth to the point where they are whiter. The polish especially makes your teeth like brighter.
The downside of this product is that it does not contain flouride and thus does not prevent cavities. You have to brush your teeth with your regular toothpaste first and then re-brush them with this product. While that doesn't really bother me, people with sensitive teeth/gums may find this troublesome.
You may also have a hard time finding this product at your local grocery/drug stores. I have noticed that some of the stores around me either did not have it or were sold out of it. Drugstore.com currently has it in stock and priced at $4.25.

In the 21st century, celebrities, politicians and even royalty are more accessible than ever. Not only can you can watch them on television and read about them online and in newspapers and magazines, you can also follow their personal accounts and interact with them on social media sites, including Twitter, Tumblr and Facebook, with many high-profile people also opting to share personal videos and photos with the public via sites such as Instagram, Flickr and YouTube.
Even the British Monarchy use social media as a way of connecting with the public, and sharing Royal news and events — their official Facebook page boasts close to one million 'likes', their Twitter page over 600,000 followers and their YouTube Channel has over 124,000 subscribers.
Things were, of course, very different for royalty five hundred years ago… If a Tudor king or queen wanted to show themselves to the people and connect with their subjects throughout the kingdom, they needed to travel, and travel they did, moving regularly, whether for political reasons, to hunt, for pleasure or necessity.
The court moved around as part of the summer progresses, however, they also travelled during the winter months between royal houses in the Thames valley. Today, our focus is on the former during the reign of Henry VIII.
Each year, in around June, the king's travel itinerary would be published along with the names of those who would be accompanying the king over the summer months or 'grass season', which was generally between August and October when the hay was cut and the hunting optimal.
This eagerly-awaited list was called the 'giest'. It detailed exactly where the king intended to stay and for how long, it also recorded how many miles he would travel between stops. The distance travelled per day varied. During the 1535 summer progress, the court travelled between six and fourteen miles in a day, whereas the average for the 1528 progress was nine miles. The court usually travelled by horse, although, on occasions, they combined this with travel by river.
Despite owning a number of grand houses, the king enjoyed staying with courtiers and noblemen while on progress and, like his father Henry VII, also regularly stayed at monastic houses. In 1510 the court stayed at ten monasteries during the summer, and in July 1535, Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn stayed at Reading Abbey, a favourite of the king's, Abingdon Abbey and Tewkesbury Abbey, while Winchcombe Abbey accommodated the majority of the court while Henry, Anne and their immediate retinue were lodged at nearby Sudeley Castle.
Sudeley Castle
The length of stay depended on many factors, including the size, convenience and splendour of the residence, and its proximity to good hunting ground, and varied in length from a fleeting overnighter to fifteen days. A lack of space meant that Henry usually only stayed for a few days with courtiers and noblemen, reserving the longer visits for the larger ecclesiastical palaces, religious houses or royal properties.
In the 1520s there were only six royal residences that could comfortably accommodate the full court, which numbered, during the wintertime, approximately 1,500 people—these were Woodstock, Palace of Beaulieu, Richmond, Hampton Court (not officially Henry's until around 1529) and Eltham. The court appears to have halved in size during the summer progresses, numbering around 750, although this varied greatly depending on whether the king's wife and children, along with their households, accompanied the progress or not.
Hosting the king and his court was a great honour and was certainly a sign of royal favour but it was also a huge expense, as not only did you have to accommodate your own household, but you also had to house and entertain the king and queen and their entourage. Often, large sums were spent preparing for the royal visit, as the royal apartments had to be in good reparation and luxuriously furnished. Nicholas Poyntz went one step further, he didn't just refurbish pre-existing apartments, he built an entire new wing in anticipation of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn's visit in August 1535, he also commissioned sets of Italian and Spanish ceramic plates and fine Venetian glass vessels with which to impress his sovereigns and all for a visit which lasted just two days!
There was also the matter of a grand reception to consider… Regardless of whether the host was an Abbot, nobleman, courtier or city corporation, the king and his royal guests were always received with great pomp and ceremony.
The mayor and other local dignitaries would receive the royal party outside of town, where they would merge and ride in procession to the cathedral or principal church. The reception might also include pageants, although this was usually reserved for entries of particular importance, like when Charles V entered London in 1522. The royal party would then make an offering at the church before being escorted to their accommodation, where gifts were exchanged.
Hampton Court Palace
The giests detailed where the king intended on staying during his summer progress, however, there were many factors that could alter the original itinerary, including weather, food shortages and the outbreak of disease. In 1535, Henry and Anne intended on travelling through the West Country to Bristol, before returning to Windsor, however, an outbreak of the plague in the city forced them to abandon their plans. Instead, they remained at Thornbury Castle, where a delegation of townsmen from Bristol came to pay their respects and present them with gifts.
Disease was not the only influence on the court's itinerary; the king's will also played a major part. In 1535, the royal couple were so delighted with the hunting and hawking in Hampshire that they delayed their return by almost a month and new giests were prepared.
Moving the court from place to place was a huge undertaking. Royal officers left ahead of the royal entourage and ensured that there was accommodation and provisions for the entire party. The Clerk of the Market rode out before the king 'to warn the peple to bake, to brewe, and to make redy othyr vytayle and stuff in to theire logginges.' The royal officers, also pre-arranged accommodation for members of the court at local inns and private houses in the area.
Although many of the larger houses had basic furniture and a skeleton staff, the king and queen's personal belongings, including plate, bed, tapestries and clothes travelled with them. The officers of the Wardrobe were primarily in charge of packing and of transporting the goods by cart, mule or boat (a process known as 'removing') and the Grooms of the Chamber or Privy Chamber were responsible for setting up and furnishing the royal lodgings at each new destination.
However laborious the process of moving the court was, from the beginning of his reign, Henry VIII understood the importance of getting out amongst his people and of allowing his subjects to see him in the flesh.
And what an impressive sight it must have been – the king and queen on horseback, resplendent in their riding clothes, followed by their vast and eye-catching retinue.
What I'd give to catch a glimpse of them now!

ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) - Maryland voters have approved same-sex marriage in a close vote.
Voters approved the ballot question on Tuesday with about 52 percent of the vote
Gov. Martin O'Malley pushed for legislation this year. He spoke to a loudly cheering audience in Baltimore, where supporters danced, hugged and popped balloons in celebration. The governor said "every child's home deserves to be protected under the law."
The Democrat signed legislation in March to legalize same-sex marriage, but opponents successfully gathered enough signatures to petition the law to the ballot for voters to decide.

Governor Martin O'Malley's full statement on the Civil Marriage Protection Act:
these past few weeks, Marylanders joined together to affirm that for a
free and diverse people of many faiths – a people committed to religious
freedom – the way forward is always found through greater respect for
the equal rights and human dignity of all.
"A lot of people worked very hard to make this day possible, including the Human Rights Campaign, the NAACP, SEIU, clergy and community leaders.
"To Maryland's children – please know that you and your families matter to the people of our State. Whether your parents happen to be gay or straight, Democratic, Republican or Independent, your families are equal before the eyes of the law.
"We have tremendous challenges as a nation, and it is my sincere hope that we can come together to meet those challenges with greater respect for the dignity of every individual.
"We are One Maryland, and all of us, at the end of the day, want the same thing for our children: to live in a loving, stable, committed home protected equally under the law.
"As we have done so often in our State's history, Marylanders chose to come together to affirm this profound truth that has served as both the cornerstone -- and the beacon of hope -- of our nation.
"By this vote, the people of our State affirmed that we are One Maryland and that we're all in this together."

Stephen Asma
Professor, philosopher, scholar, musician, author, family man…is there anything Stephen Asma can't do?
Written by Margaret Smith, Journalism
Photography by Kelsey Wright ('10)
Dr. Stephen Asma is, by his own admission, a regular Joe six-pack. He appreciates red meat, good whiskey, and baseball. His office, however, tells a slightly different story.
Located in the 624 S. Michigan Ave. building, the calming sound of soft jazz regularly fills the room. It's a fine fit if you consider that, in the early '90s, Dr. Asma was a professional musician in Chicago, most notably playing a residency at Buddy Guy's Legends with the Chicago-based blues band Howard and the White Boys—a band he help create.
Along the walls of his office sit four brown bookcases, where different selections of philosophy, Eastern religion, and other texts are sprawled in disarray. Behind his desk are boxes filled with some of his own six books, including The Gods Drink Whiskey: Stumbling Toward Enlightenment in Land of Tattered Buddha, and his latest book, Why I Am a Buddhist, which was published this past March.
"Buddhism is not about magical-thinking, and yet so many Americans think it is," Dr. Asma says about his newest book. "So that's partly the mission of the book—to sort of try to give people what the real Buddha was saying, and then also try to show how an average schmuck like me puts it into practice."
As a published author, scholar, musician, Eastern religion expert, and philosopher, Dr. Asma brings a wealth of knowledge to the students he teaches in Columbia's Department of Humanities, History, and Social Sciences (HHSS) in the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences. "Steve is a wonderful teacher, scholar, and colleague," says HHSS Chairperson Dr. Lisa Brock. "He is a philosopher of the people, a Buddhist, and a blues musician who speaks Chinese. He is Columbia College's own renaissance man."
Dr. Asma's interest in philosophy began when he was in college at Northern Illinois University (NIU) in DeKalb, Illinois. Originally an art major specializing in painting, he began to find that philosophy was his real passion. He switched majors and received both his BA and MA in philosophy from NIU. He then went on to earn his PhD in philosophy from Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, Illinois. The switch from art to philosophy was natural, Dr. Asma says, and he strongly believes that most artists have a special bond with the subject.
"I found that artists really like philosophy," he says. "There's some connection. I don't know whether it's the bohemian spirit or what, but when artists hit philosophy they recognize something in it. It does something for them…"
It was this connection between philosophy and the arts that originally drew Dr. Asma to Columbia. He began working for the college in the early 1990s as an adjunct professor, and earned a full-time position in '94. He's been with the college ever since. "Right away I liked working here at Columbia," he says. "I really felt like these were my people, so to speak."
Much of Dr. Asma's work in Buddhism is a result of his experiences traveling throughout Southeast Asia. He's also taught across seas at the Buddhist Institute in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. In addition to drawing from his interests and scholarly work when he's in the classroom, Asma relies on combining the Socratic method, which structures learning around a question and answer format, with traditional lecturing.
Columbia's approach to curriculum also has allowed him to create classes he probably wouldn't be able to teach at other institutions, such as "Philosophical Issues in Film," one of his most popular courses. Dr. Asma also teaches another course he developed, called "The Evolution of the Mind." In it, students explore both the biological and cultural development of the human psyche.
"One of the great things about Columbia for the faculty members is that they encourage and value creativity in the faculty," Dr. Asma says. "That's something you don't find as much of, I think, in other schools."
Today, when he and his wife aren't taking care of their son, Julien, Dr. Asma pursues his artistic and musical interests. He plays gigs around Chicago with Doctor Swing, an acoustic swing quartet. And, in '96, he wrote and illustrated the book Buddha for Beginners, a graphic novel that explores the key tenets of Buddhism.
With six books under his belt, Dr. Asma says he's currently working on this seventh—a text for professional philosophers that poses questions about ethics, fairness, and social justice. He also plans to continue his work with a think tank called "The Mind, Science, and Culture Research Group," sponsored by the Dean of the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences. The group "emphasizes a cross-disciplinary dialogue between psychology, philosophy, the biological sciences, evolutionary science, history, and the humanities as a means of connecting the many levels of the human mind," according to its mission statement.
"That's been a very exciting development both for me and for the students here, because we're sort of building up a little group of LAS students who are excited about these ideas," he says. "It's the kind of thing that if you were to go back five years, you wouldn't get this sort of stuff at Columbia."
The story above appears in the annual magazine of the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences, @LAS.

I can't wait until this level of speed actually becomes affordable. A 1.28TB SSD is music to my ears.
Yea, that will be nice...
It will be affordable in just a few years... the problem is, it will be competing with slower drives that hold a petabyte. Heheh
you are terrible at math. at the most optimistic view, doubling storage capacities each year, and stretching your "few years" to 4 years, you *might* be looking at 32TB. My opinion, maybe 6-8TB would be realistic by 2012.
a petabyte is 1024TB. At the most optimistic view, it wont be until 2022 - and for some reason, I think hard drives as we know them won't be capable of storage densities that high. Probably some sort of holographic storage media. *shrug*
And, unlike Bob, you're terrible at getting half-joking references to petabyte drives that were promised three years ago.
The point of the joke was that even if the price comes down, it won't compete with other slower technologies. That will almost certainly prove valid.
PS: As someone that's been programming computers for 27 years, and had a CS degree for 19 years... I'm pretty sure I don't suck at math and am aware of how large a petabyte is. Thanks.
So 3vi1, what you are trying to say here is that if I were to paypal you money...you would be willing to do all of my C# programs for me for the rest of the semester? (1 a week for about 8 more weeks)
hehe... I just finished writing about 30,000 lines of C# for a modular SNMP polling/reporting system I created. I'll be happy to look over anything if you want my input. :p
I want you to input my program...start to finish
It's ok 3vi1. I get your humor. Also this is the company are little dancing queen Woz is working for now right?
I don't know why you call this an SSD, since it is not a drive in the normal sense(Can't boot from it).
why couldnt you boot from it? essentially the bios would just pick it up as an add-in controller, which is just hardwired to SS chips that the controller will translate into looking like a harddrive -- essentially making it fully transparent to the system.

Hey BTSC, I'm a Giants fan over at BBV, posted this there and NYSteelersFan4 told me to put it up here too. I doubt it will be anyone's favorite play here, but if anybody likes the x's and o's stuff you might get a kick out of it. Please excuse any inaccuracies about your team, we all know our own roster better than outsiders. Congratulations on another great season, even if it didn't end up perfect.
Leading up to Super Bowl 45, there was plenty of talk about the Steelers and Packers and their plethora of blitzes from their 3-4 fronts. Dick Lebeau and Dom Capers, between them, must have a stake in nearly every zone blitz or firezone that we see in today's odd schemes. The Packers really play something closer to a 4-2-5… but that's a different fanpost, different argument.
The factor that put the Packers ahead (in my opinion) was their protection. They picked up the vast majority of the stunts and blitzes Lebeau threw at them. It's hard to recall a single pass rusher coming unblocked into the Packer's backfield, and that's what amazed me- getting guys unblocked to the passer is the whole idea behind the Steeler's defense.
There was one play in particular that demonstrates both Mike McCarthy's excellent game-planning and how vulnerable the soft blitz leaves you in the 3-4 scheme. 13 minutes left in the 4th quarter, Packers have the ball on the Steelers 40 yard line, 3rd and 10. Most people will remember this play because it was so exciting. Jordy Nelson catches a first down pass, cuts across field, out of bounds near the 5.
The more impressive part of this play though, is the blitz pickup. The blitz and coverage combo run by the Steelers is pictured below. Dotted lines represent pre-snap motion, gold lines are man-to-man coverage responsibility.
NOTE- The video from NFL.com of this play was looking pretty blurry. I'm pretty certain on most of these players, but excuse me if I got any wrong. Some were too blurry to be sure, so I left them as positions- Ike Taylor and Bryant McFadden were the Corners for the Steelers, but I left them as C's because I couldn't be 100% sure. Same with the Packers Z and Slot receivers, probably James Jones and whoever else but I left them Z and S. Click pictures for slightly clearer version.
You can see the Steelers are showing a Cover 2 Shell. Troy Polamalu and Ryan Clark look like they will play halves. They are also showing pressure to Aaron Rodgers left side with James Harrison, Brett Keisel, and James Farrior lined up stacked in C and B gaps. To the other side, Ziggy Hood and Lamar Woodley look like they will provide the contain rush to compliment the onslaught from the left.
Before the snap, a bunch of movement occurs for confusion's sake. Harrison jumps out to play inside the slot. Farrior steps out of the gap and moves to play the wide Tight End (in this formation, Greg Jennings) in man coverage. The weakside Corner and Nickel (William Gay) move towards the LOS C gap together, and to compensate the safeties break the illusion of a Cov-2 shell. Polamalu flies to centerfield 20 yards off the ball, and Ryan Clark buzzes out to play over Jordy Nelson man-to-man in place of the blitzing DB's. Rodgers sees it, points it out with some assistance from Nelson, and snaps the ball.
On the snap Hood jumps to the A gap and really spies Rodgers without rushing hard, but he occupies the center all the same. Woodley rips in to the B gap. The Corner and Nickel execute a spin blitz: the corner goes C gap after the Nickel rushes with contain upfield. Opposite all this movement, Keisel rushes alone from B to C gap as the base side to the pressure, hoping Rodgers will be flushed to his side. The whole thing results in showing a heavy rush left with zone, but playing a heavy rush right with man cover 1. It's extremely tricky, well hidden to the last second, and one of Dick Lebeau's go to blitzes. The Steelers' D is always good, and this usually works.
But it doesn't.
This is the Packers' pickup. Blitz-side Tackle flies out to pick up the Nickel, the outermost rusher. The running back jumps underneath and walls the Corner. The Guard easily runs with Woodley. Lamar is a 3-4 OLB and therefore (unlike say… Justin Tuck) is not going to rush inside successfully often. The Center has little to do as Hood is spying, and the LG and LT have only to bar Keisel between them.
Now the Steelers are in trouble. One of Lebeau's best shots just missed, and they are playing Cover 1 Man against a great set of receivers. What's worse, they have some semblance of 3-4 personnel on the field, which means they're not that athletic to start with, and 2 of their best coverage players are busy getting blocked. Luckily they are in Dime, so this leaves 2 DB's and Harrison covering the in routes by the Z and Slot. Troy is in the middle. Greg Jennings runs right by Farrior on a 12 yard corner route, but Rodgers already knows where he's going. He throws over the blitz, where Ryan Clark has been asked to run from 15+ yards deep to Jordy Nelson alone in space and man him up. When the ball is snapped Clark is still more than 7 yards off and has no hope of getting into optimal position- inside shoulder. So when Nelson breaks in on a quick skinny post, he makes the catch in space.
He makes a bunch of moves to get to the other side of the field and inside the 10 yard line, but it really looks like if the ball had gone to Jennings it would have been six. Jennings throws a great block, and I doubt he complained afterward. Nor did any of the Packers' fans, for that matter.

Massachusetts football fan Bill Driscoll places his hat over his heart and closes his eyes during the band's playing of the national anthem before an NCAA college football game against Akron in Foxborough, Mass., Saturday, Nov. 16, 2013. (AP Photo/Stephan Savoia)
FOXBOROUGH — The University of Massachusetts met its minimum attendance goals and avoided NCAA probation.
A crowd of 10,599 watched the Minutemen fall to Akron, 14-13 Saturday at Gillette Stadium.
It gave UMass 94,981 fans over six home games for an average of 15,830, the largest average attendance in program history. The Minutemen needed to average 15,000 to avoid probation.
Next year, UMass will play three home games on campus at McGuirk Stadium and three more at Gillette Stadium.
ATOP HIS POSITION — Senior Rob Blanchflower's five catches for 26 yards gave him 1,164 yards receiving in his career, the most ever by a UMass tight end. He passed UMass legend Milt Morin, who had 1,151.
"It's an honor to receive the record. Hopefully I'll have a couple more yards this season, but it's kind of a hollow feeling (in a loss)," Blanchflower said. "Milt Morin was a legend. He and I come from the same city (Leominster). It's a memorable event, but I wish it could have happened differently I guess."
SENIOR DAY — Blanchflower was one of 18 seniors honored before the game. He was joined by David Osei, Ricardo Miller, Justin Anderson, Vincent Westcarr, Jeff Strait, Brandon Potvin, Brendon Levengood, Anthony Dima, Galen Clemons, Kevin Byrne, Tom Brandt, Vance Barton, Antoine Tharpe, Colter Johnson, Devin Brown, Matthew Quinn and Greg Orekoya.
Quinn is a redshirt junior, but is choosing to graduate rather than use a fifth year of eligibility.
Molnar praised the group.
"They played really hard throughout the season and the past two years. Today was no different," he said. "I fully expect our seniors will continue to lead this football team as we go into the final two games. My heart breaks for them that we didn't win our last home game here."
MISCELLANEOUS — Since becoming the starting place kicker, Levengood has made all six field goal attempts. ... Former UMass tight end Jerome Lewis had one catch for minus-1 yard for the Zips. ... UMass recovered three opponent fumbles for the first time since 2008.
