Kevin Maher: It feels good to be back at Southend United
6:00pm Thursday 3rd April 2014 in Sport By Chris Phillips
SOUTHEND United legend Kevin Maher is relishing his return to Roots Hall.
The 37-year-old made 454 appearances during 10 seasons with the Shrimpers.
And he is now delighted to be back on a voluntary basis, helping to coach the club's young players alongside head of youth Ricky Duncan.
"Coaching is the natural progression for me and it's great that Ricky has allowed me to come in when I can to help coach the club's young players," said Maher, who remains Blues' most successful ever captain.
"I spent most of my career with Southend so it will always be the club close to my heart and it's great to be back.
"It's a little bit strange being around the place again and coaching instead of playing, but I'm enjoying it because it's what I want to do next.
"There are certainly some talented players in the youth set up here and if I can help them in some way as well then that's fantastic."
Maher has already completed his UEFA B Licence coaching course and is now keen to pick up even more qualifications, including the A Licence.
But Maher, who skippered the Shrimpers to back-to-back promotions and victory against Manchester United, is not yet ready to hang up his boots.
"I'm keen to carry on playing for as long as I can and think I can do another year," said the former Tottenham Hotspur trainee.
"I was playing non-league with Whitehawk up until last month and can hopefully get something else sorted out soon.
"However, coaching is definitely what's next for me.
"I want to serve my apprenticeship and take in as much as I can.
"I'm learning all the time from Ricky and the other coaches and I'm enjoying it too.
"I will definitely keep at it and see where it can take me."
Maher is helping out on a voluntary basis.
And Duncan is thrilled to be have him in the coaching set up.
"It's fantastic to have someone like Kevin around the place and we were only too pleased to have him in after all he did during his time with the club," said Duncan.
"He's great with the youngsters and just the other day they were all asking him questions over lunch about his career and he's brilliant for them to learn because he's been there and done it for the first team here."

Cavaliers fall short against No. 23 Duke
Men's basketball loses 69-65 on the road, suffers first ACC loss of the season
Virginia really had no business being competitive in its game Monday night against Duke. Shooting just 38 percent from the field against a hot-shooting Blue Devil team, a halftime deficit became even bigger in the second half, but the Cavaliers managed to stick around. With 6:21 to go in the second half, Duke led by 13 points at 56-43, and it seemed lucky that that was the whole margin.
All of a sudden, though, the Cavaliers (12-5, 3-1 ACC) found their stride. They went on a 20-7 run, capped off by an 11-0 run, and tied the game at 63. After a free throw put the Blue Devils (13-4, 2-2 ACC) up 64-63, sophomore guard Malcolm Brogdon nailed two free throws to take a 65-64 lead. A dramatic 3-pointer from Duke sophomore Rasheed Sulaimon made the game 67-65, but Virginia had 13.5 seconds to work with. After inbounding, senior center Akil Mitchell tried to find senior guard Joe Harris in the paint, but sophomore Amile Jefferson deflected his pass. Duke was able to hold on to the ball in the ensuing scrum and escape with a 69-65 victory.
"It's a play that we practice at the end of practice every single day," Harris said. "It's something that we work on pretty religiously. We all felt pretty confident that we would get a clean look. … The pass was just a little bit lower than we would have liked, and Jefferson was able to tip it."
Virginia's near comeback was all the more shocking given the team's start to the game. It took the Cavaliers almost five minutes to land their first basket of the game as Duke built an early 8-0 lead. Virginia would trail for the entire half, shooting a miserable 30.4 percent from the field as the Blue Devils hit nearly 50 percent of their shots. The Cavaliers could do little more than hang close in the game, going into halftime down 36-28. Senior guard Joe Harris had just five points on 1-for-4 shooting in the half, while much-touted Duke freshman Jabari Parker had just 3 points.
"They did such a good job of locking and trailing, making it hard for Joe," head coach Tony Bennett said. "I thought in the first half there were too many offensive rebounds and miscommunication. Then they got some threes and that hurt us."
The second half brought a marked improvement on both sides of the ball. Virginia picked up its shooting percentage to 43.8 percent, and though the Cavaliers were not able to overtake Duke until the final minute, they stayed within striking distance. Both Harris and Brogdon looked dangerous, scoring inside and outside for the team and providing strong defense. Brogdon would finish with a team-high 17 points, but Harris was right behind him with 15.
"I thought [Brogdon] was good," Bennett said. "He was tough, made some big plays, and guarded well. It is hard when Duke spreads you out and with the new rules emphasis you try to keep your hands off, but it is hard to keep guys in front. For the most part, I thought our guys did a good job of keeping their hands off and making them shoot contested shots."
Despite the success, Duke still managed to push the lead. Sulaimon poured in 21 points to pace the Blue Devils, who shot 45.5 percent from 3-point range in the game. Late in the quarter, though, Virginia turned the corner.
"[It was] just hitting shots, getting stops, exactly what we do," Mitchell said. "We kept pushing, they let up in a few areas, and let us back into the game."
Brogdon's go-ahead free throws came with 36.5 seconds left on the clock, and Duke advanced the ball looking to answer. After a miss by sophomore Rodney Hood, Duke rebounded; Sulaimon got the ball and launched a 3-pointer from the corner. It hit the rim, bounced high into the air, but ultimately found the net.
"Boy, if we could have grabbed that one and then been in a different position," Bennett said. "We scrambled back and Rasheed hit that tough one. I was with him all summer and I said "Why did you have to do that to us?" That thing was up on the rim, then bounced and just hung there. There are soft rims at Duke and that paid off for them this time."
Virginia's attempted response fell short, but Bennett was careful to take the loss in stride.
"To have a one point lead, I told the guys not to hang their heads about that," Bennett said. "We have time to improve. My line to them was: had we won, it wouldn't have made our season, and had we lost, it wouldn't break our season. … That thing could have gotten away, but they fought and scrapped and they will have another chance at that."

"No WWE talent becomes a legend on their own. Every man's heart one day beats its final beat. His lungs breathe their final breath. And if what that man did in his life makes the blood pulse through the body of others and makes them bleed deeper in something that's larger than life, then his essence, his spirit, will be immortalized by the storytellers. By the loyalty, by the memory of those who honor him, and make the running the man did live forever. I am The Ulitmate Warrior. You are the Ultimate Warrior fans and the spirit of Ultimate Warrior will run forever."
His suit isn't even symmetrical in the film.
Just chill. Every figure is "off" and not perfect in some way. I found this out with the T-1000 when I bought 5 whole figures. There's always something a tad wrong. I just got my second Batman from CSC and the emblem had a few blemishes on it. I thought about getting all OCD or picking it but it's not even that bad.
Think of how mass produced and how many figures there are. The variations are endless.
As long as the suit isn't leaking, the PERS eyes aren't off, the true type body isn't broken and there aren't any major off putting blemishes on the body or the cowl, you're fine.
I was labelled a troll because I disagreed with Superman's likeness. Now that I was proven right, who's going to remove the 'troll' label?
it's true. your figure has a lot of flaws. so does mine and so does every figure we own. Asymmetrical abs? There comes a point in time where you just have to realize it;s a mass produced product from Asia and get over it.
the oil though that's a real problem.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh said on ESPN two nights ago that he was interested in the Vikings. Evidently the interest is mutual, since the Vikings are scheduled to have the free agent receiver in for a visit as soon as he wraps up his trip to Seattle. Housh, as the kids like to call him, is far-and-away the biggest free agent fish available at the wide receiver position, and is the one guy out there who could instantly upgrade the Vikings offense. If the Vikings impress Housh enough, I suppose it's possible we could have him signed by tomorrow. Other teams rumored to be interested, like the Giants and Eagles, have reportedly dropped out, so it's not like Housh has the vast array of options he would've had in a more competitive market.
Houshmandzadeh Will Visit Vikings
- Mike
Why risk spending tons of money on great WRs like Berrian and Housh when you have unproven QBs like T-Jack and Rosenfels throwing to them?
- All Day 28
All im going to say is make it Happen. Why risk spending the money, well Mikey thats because GREAT WR's can make unproven QB's ummm lets say GREAT. Having Berrian and Housh means thats line's can not stack 8 and 9 guys up in the box every play to try and contain Peterson. Which opens up more holes and lane's for him to run. And if they do stack the line lets just imagine Berrian's speed and Housh's height and leaping ablity, especially in the redzone. Not to mention Shiancoe seemed like he finally got the West coast offense last season. Thats why we go sign Housh
- Mike
Having good WRs and poor QBs makes about as much sense as having a good QB and bad WRs. Having Berrian and Housh means nothing if you don't have a QB that can read blitzes and get them the ball. Houston has good WRs with Andre Johnson, Kevin Walter and Owen Daniels, but they also have a good QB with Schaub (15 TDs/10 INTS). Now the Vikings are getting their backup Rosenfels (6 TDs/1o INTS). Most NFL teams build their franchise around great QBs. The Vikings build their franchise around lousy QBs. We will see if it works but I doubt it will. Moreover, you will no right to blame Childress because you supported Rosenfels.
- All Day 28
Schaub a good QB, hahahahaha. Mike I live in Houston so i see plenty of Texans ball. Schaub has started 22 games as a texan and has 24 td's and 19 ints in those 22 games started. Sage in 10 games started has 21 tds and had 22 ints. I know the ints are scary but Sage took alot more risk's than Schaub because he was a back up trying to prove his worth. Sage didnt have the Offensive line in Houston that he will in Minnesota. Not to mention that guy that they call All Day. You might not be happy with Sage as it appears. An nor an I really. But atleast go into the season optimistic with him and lets see what happens. Hell he cant do any worse than what we have had the past couple of years
- Vikes2009
Gus & tarvaris gave Berrian the best year of his life in 2008 season. What makes you think Sage wont do so well with talented receivers? For example, Jeff George… Randy Moss made him looked good!
- Mike
I can't be delusional and indulge in wishful thinking about the Vikings QB situation like many of you. I would offer Warner $12 million now, inquire about trades for McNabb or Hasselbeck or try to get Favre from the Jets, among other things to try to get a good proven QB in Minnesota. But hey, if Childress and you Vikings fans want to risk this great team on unproven Sage Rosenfels, I just want to put myself on the record to say I told you so later.
- All Day 28
Delusional, Mike I would love for the Vikings to pull a trade for McNabb. Now Favre trade wise thats not gonna happen. We all should know by now that if the Jets trade Favre to the NFC north that they will owe Greengay tons of draft picks, so scratch that one off your list, also scratch Warner off your list. No way in hell is he comming to Minnesota. He is resigning with Zona, his situation is too good there, already knows the system, coaching staff and has great Wr's. I doubt in hell that he wants to go somewhere else and learn a new system at this point in his career. Hasselbeck, no thanks i'd rather roll the dice with Sage. Now like I said McNabb, would love for them to pull the trigger and try for him, and im sure McNabb is getting frustrated with Philly especially since they let Dawkins get away and now trading Lito Shepherd. I know they are defensive players but that affects the entire team. Am I happy with just Sage no, id be doing everything in our power to try and get McNabb right now. But if nothing else QB comes our way, put a lil faith in Sage, its not hard to do
- Mike
All Day, I'm glad you agree McNabb is preferable to Rosenfels but I disagree with your unwillingness to pursue other options. Pursuing Favre from the Jets would involve his release, not a trade (I wont spell it out for you since it has been written up all over the web). As for Warner, there is no way he coming to Minnesota only because the Vikings are doing nothing to invite him here (he has announced he will be visiting SF). Unlike you, I certainly would prefer a healthy Hasselbeck to Rosenfels, although I would need for him to undergo a physical to determine the health of his back and shoulder. I even would have pursued Cutler over Rosenfels, although I can't really criticize Chidress on that opportunity until I hear what the deal involved. As for putting my faith in Sage Rosenfels, forget about it, as there are many QBs I would rather have. In fact, I believe Chilly only got him as a backup to T-Jack. The threat of another year of the T-Jack experiment should give Viking fans little reason to be optimistic. Hopefully, Chilly will get serious when he picks up the mysterious 4th QB.
- http://Pennsylvania bernie jelinek
Sure, McNabb can put up some numbers, and has a strong arm, but has he ever won a Superbowl for Philly? How many loses does he have in NFC Championship games as the Eagles QB? Let's face it, he can't win the big game, no matter what he does. Being a Viking won't change that fact. The Eagles defense was one of the best last year, and it took McNabb two and a half quarters to figure out Arizona, and they still lost. One thing you really can't call Rosenfels is a loser, because he really has'nt gotten much playing time to prove he can be effective, and he was playing for a young, and inexperienced Houston team. I just hope he can improve his game when the stakes are higher.
- All Day 28
Atleast Bernie has some faith…..
- http://Pennsylvania bernie jelinek
All Day 28, I guess all us Vikings fans have to have faith. I feel the same way inside as many other diehard fans do about the QB situation. I myself would prefer a great QB that has proven leadership, but living in PA, I've seen more than enough of Donovan McNabb and the Eagles to last a lifetime. What Rosenfels and Jackson have to realize is, that if they don't play well right now , then both of them will be looking for work elsewhere. I feel that the fans have suffered long enough over the years and won't tolerate turnovers very long. If we land Housh, shore up the offensive line and defensive secondary, utilize Kleinsasser at TE, there should be huge holes for AP to run through, and no excuses. If a team like Arizona can get there and almost win, then there is no reason that this Vikings team can't roll through the playoffs and win it all, period.
- Mike
The Vikings need a proven QB, not faith. For every super bowl won by a Dilfer or a Brad Johnson there are 5 won by a Brady, Manning, Big Ben, Warner, Elway, Favre, Aikman, Young and Montana. Moreover, QBs Dilfer and Johnson were vets that managed the games along with mediocre WRs while relying on dominant defenses (rated 1 and 2). The Vikings plan of wasting high-priced WRs by relying on neophyte QBs to throw to them and a good but not dominant defense is likely not a prescription for a super bowl. And the reason Chilly is throwing away a super bowl is because his pride won't let him admit he made a mistake by choosing T-Jack as the franchise QB. He will do anything he can to surround T-Jack with talent to make him a success but will do nothing to replace him with talent. Rosenfels is just a backup to push his stupid pet project. I refuse to have faith in such delusional prideful thinking.

NILES - Police have responded to the picket line at Phillips Manufacturing twice in two days, one call involving striking steelworkers blocking an entrance way who were "pushed" by vehicles attempting to leave the plant, a police report says.
According to police, two pickets were shoved out of the way by vehicles attempting to leave the plant at 504 Walnut St. about 4:35 p.m. Thursday. Police were already at the plant responding to a call that the striking workers were blocking the entrance way when they witnessed the drivers of a white van and a silver Chrysler push their bumpers into two pickets.
Officers stopped the vehicles but did not file any charges. The pickets did not claim to be injured but were told by officers they could seek charges in Niles Municipal Court.
Police were called to the plant a second time about 10:30 a.m. Friday for another disturbance, but details from that report weren't immediately available.
Dennis Brubaker, staff representative with the United Steelworkers who had been negotiating on behalf of the workers said the incidents stemmed from the company's use of replacement workers at the plant. He said striking workers first saw a van bringing in four or five replacement workers on Monday, leading to flaring tempers.
About 44 members of United Steelworkers Local 4564-02 have been on strike since Sept. 13 over what they say are unfair wages, benefits and working conditions. They had been working without a contract since Aug. 9.
Brubaker said there have been no new negotiations since before the strike, and he doesn't expect any new talks for several days.
''We are doing what we can,'' Brubaker said, noting the union has been processing forms for emergency health insurance for the striking workers.
An attempt to reach management at Phillips Manufacturing for comment on the use of replacement workers or negotiations was not successful.
The plant manufactures steel parts used with plasterboard in the construction industry.

Mel Kiper, Jr. Draft Legend
Many coaches and administrators enjoy hearing suggestions from Kiper. One big fan was Indianapolis Colts manager Bill Tobin who praised Kiper saying, "Who in the hell is Mel Kiper, anyway? I mean, here's a guy who criticizes everybody, whoever they take. In my knowledge of him, he's never even put on a jockstrap, he's never been a player, he's never been a coach, he's never been a scout, he's never been an administrator, and all of a sudden, he's an expert. Mel Kiper has no more credentials to do what he's doing than my neighbor, and my neighbor's a postman and he doesn't even have season tickets to the NFL."

GREENSBORO, N.C. (BP)Frank Page, pastor of First Baptist Church in Taylors, S.C., elected president of the Southern Baptist Convention during their annual meeting June 13-14 in Greensboro, was the first of five men to complete the slate of officers to lead the 16.2 million-member denomination for the next year.
In a three-candidate race for president, of the 9,005 votes cast, Page, with 4,546 votes, or 50.48 percent on the first ballot, defeated Ronnie Floyd, pastor of First Baptist Church in Springdale, Ark., who was second with 2,247 votes or 24.95 percent, and Jerry Sutton, pastor of Two Rivers Baptist Church in Nashville, Tenn., who had 2,168 votes or 24.08 percent of the votes. Tellers disqualified 44 votes or 0.49 percent.
The presidential election was the first highly contested presidential race at an SBC annual meeting since 1994 in Orlando, when Jim Henry, now retired as pastor of First Baptist Church there, defeated Fred Wolfe, now of Canton, Ga.
Page succeeds Bobby Welch, pastor of First Baptist Church of Daytona Beach, Fla., who served two terms as president.
Jimmy Jackson, pastor of Whitesburg Baptist Church in Huntsville, Ala., won the election for first vice president in a runoff. He received 51.44 percent (1,107 votes) of the vote, edging Mark Dever (47.86 percent, 1,030 votes), pastor of Capitol Hill Baptist Church in Washington, D.C.
On the first ballot, Dever received a plurality of the votes, with 29.72 percent (1,090 votes) to Jacksons 27.48 percent (1,008 votes). Convention rules state that the top two vote-getters advance to a runoff. On the first ballot Kelly J. Burris, senior pastor of Kempsville Baptist Church in Virginia Beach, Va., received 22.76 percent (835) while Keith Fordham, an evangelist from Fayetteville, Ga., and a member of Harps Crossing Baptist Church in Fayetteville, Ga., received 19.79 percent (726 votes).
Wiley Drake, pastor of First Southern Baptist Church in Buena Park, Calif., was elected to the post of second vice president. Drake received 50.37 percent of the vote (2,408 votes) on the first ballot over three other nominees - J.D. Greear (1,508 votes), pastor of the Summit Church in Durham, N.C.; Bob Bender (635 votes), pastor of First Baptist Church of Black Forest in Colorado Springs, Colo.; and Jay Adkins (207 votes), pastor of First Baptist Church in Westwego, La.
By acclamation, messengers re-elected John Yeats, director of communications for the Louisiana Baptist Convention and a member of Calvary Baptist Church in Alexandria, La., as recording secretary and Jim Wells, director of missions for Tri County Baptist Association in Nixa, Mo., as registration secretary.

Forrest Pollock, pastor of Bell Shoals Baptist Church in Brandon, Fla., nominated Page for president.
Pollock described Page as a man who will not only love the Word of God -- the inerrant Bible -- but also will support the Cooperative Program.
Pages church gives 12.4 percent of undesignated receipts to the Cooperative Program, Pollock said.
Weve got to work together if were going to accomplish the Great Commission, Pollock said. Thats the reason that we started the Cooperative Program in the first place -- so that granddaddys church could work with your church and my church to reach the world for the Lord Jesus Christ.
Pollock said Page is not a high flying preacher, just a soul-winner.
Page has been pastor of First Baptist Church in Taylors, S.C., the past five and a half years. He previously served as pastor of Warren Baptist Church in Augusta, Ga.; Gambrell Street Baptist Church in Fort Worth, Texas; and LaFayette Baptist Church in Fayetteville, N.C.

Can we just get to Sunday already? The non-stop talk by the Jets, along with the media repeating every bit of it over and over again was amusing Monday and Tuesday. By this point though, what else can be said? Lets just line 'em up and play the game.
I'm trying to avoid the articles this morning which are solely about the talk, and link some actual football pieces:
You can find all the coverage over at PatriotsLinks.com.
Pressure is on Mark Sanchez - Ron Borges says that the Jets QB has "gone from one of the most overrated quarterbacks in football to perhaps the most underrated."
Is he coming on strong? - Amalie Benjamin says that Shonn Greene might be the key to game for the Jets on Sunday.
Belichick has Pats ready for a title run - Lenny Megliola talks to Bill Belichick's daughter Amanda and Patriots analyst Gino Cappelletti about the job the head coach is doing with this team.
Jets talk rings hollow - The headline of Karen Guregian's column might lead you think it's a trash talk article, but it's more about New York's weakness in the middle of the field.
Jets might back off the blitzes on Sunday - Christopher Price notes that the Jet might focus more on coverage this time around. Robert Lee also examines this subject.
Lined up for a return - Michael Vega has Dan Connolly talking about his kickoff return against the Packers for the first time.
Snap, tackle and pop - Ian Rapoport has Vince Wilfork looking ahead to the task of stopping the Jets running game.
New England Patriots bullish on tight ends - Tim Whelan Jr. has a look at how far the tight end position has come in a year for the Patriots.
Danny Woodhead focused on here, now - Rapoport's notebook has the former Jet not looking back. The Globe notebook by Monique Walker has all Patriots arriving on time for practice in the snow. The Patriots Journal from Robert Lee and Carolyn Thornton has more on Connolly.
The Celtics ran over the Sacramento Kings at the Garden last night, 119-95. Get complete coverage at CelticsLinks.com.
The problem with Jermaine O'Neal's knee - Paul Flannery's three-pointer looks at another setback for the Celtics most expensive free agent signing of the summer.
Semih Erden goes distance for C's - Chris Forsberg has Erden picking up the slack in the middle.
Mound of facts against Josh Beckett - John Tomase says that history doesn't favor Josh Beckett bouncing back big from his miserable 2010 season.

How I helped to extend Asda's range of post-surgery lingerie
Beverly Spence, 53, from Caerphilly, had breast cancer twice in four years. Beverly contacted Asda to ask if we sold specially-fitting lingerie for women who have had a mastectomy. Since then, Beverly has helped design and fit Asda's range of post-surgery bras and swimwear.
Beverly said: "I'm absolutely thrilled that I've achieved what I initially set out to do – and that was to introduce a bigger range of post-surgery bras into all the Asda stores for those people who are unable to access internet sites to purchase or cannot afford the over-priced garments on sale at some other stockists."
Beverly, who is married to Robert and has two children Michael, 29 and Laura, 19, had a lumpectomy after developing breast cancer. She responded well to chemotherapy and radiotherapy but when she went for a routine mammogram doctors found she had a new breast cancer in the same breast. Bev had a mastectomy in September 2009 and had her lymph nodes removed as a precaution.
"It was right underneath my lumpectomy scar," says Beverly. "It was tiny, half the size of the last one. It was picked up early and didn't need any other treatment. When I found out it was a new cancer and not a recurrence I didn't know whether that was good news or worse news. To have had two cancers in four years – it was a shock."
Beverly's mastectomy scar is quite high up on her chest and she tends to wear high neck tops. Finding a bra that fits is a challenge.
"You can't just take an ordinary bra and put a pocket in it," said Beverly. "That doesn't work. The sides have got to be higher and they have to stitch the outside of the cup differently to give them a bit of support. It's more structured.
"The first bra I had from Asda fitted really well. I couldn't believe the price. When it arrived I wasn't expecting much for £6 but I was really surprised. The swimsuits are great and the tankini is fabulous. It's a crossover style and the material drapes over the cups so you are disguising the fact you've got a prosthesis there. It's a problem getting mastectomy bras at a reasonable price. You can get them from specialist shops but they are a lot more expensive. If somewhere like Asda can do them for £6 it's great, particularly for older people who don't go online or don't have much money."

The Reds take on Burnley on Friday 7 December, with the match kicking off at 7pm at the Theatre of Dreams.
If the score is level at the end of full time, there will be an extra 30 minutes plus penalties if required.
Admission prices are £3 for adults and £1 for concessions and it should be an entertaining affair as both clubs reached the semi-final stage last term. The match will also be screened live on MUTV.

WEST WARWICK — When the ball left Dustin Jarrett's bat, it appeared the West Warwick baseball team was about to turn a double play. And then, moments before the ball was about to disappear into the glove of West Warwick second baseman Matt Grenier, the ball struck the base umpire.
Somehow, even though the ball wasn't struck with much venom, the umpire failed to get out of the way of the ball and the break allowed Chariho to score three runs against lefty starter Tommy Doran.
WOOD RIVER JUNCTION — The Chariho fastpitch softball team burst out of the dugout and rushed home plate to welcome teammate Emily Hollister after she rounded the bases. The senior had just nailed a home run on a full count in the Tuesday's second inning to put the Chargers on the scoreboard with Woonsocket. The Chariho team was down by two after the Villa Novans scored runs off an error in the first, but as the final score would indicate, the Charger girls were just warming up.
"We were pretty solid defensively," said coach Dave Petrocelli after Tuesday's 8-2 triumph at Chariho High School. "We got good pitching from [sophomore] Kailee Morgan and [senior] India O'Neil and that's something we needed. We needed a win today."
Isn't it appropriate that the surf gods would be generous on Easter weekend, giving ESA competitors great waves to ride at the 2014 edition of the Newport Surfing Championships. The call came at 7 AM from Newport's legendary icon, Sid Abruzzi. " First Beach was firing with perfect waist to chest high swells. It is the right call today. Second Beach is only one foot and choppy."
"This was the first time in several years, that we decided to run the contest at this beach," said ESA Competition Director Mario Frade. "We randomly called the event for First Beach and scored. Everyone was surprised at the quality of the surf today."
The Colby-Sawyer women's lacrosse team is just 2-11 on the season but the Chargers are getting another solid performance from senior Adrienne Bender.
Bender, from Wakefield (South Kingstown High), is a team captain and has eight goals and two assists for 10 points to go along with 22 ground balls, 17 draw controls and eight caused turnovers.
"Adrienne is the type of person anyone would want on their team," coach Emily Rinde-Thorsen said. "She is the prime example of a student-athlete, excelling not only on the field but in the class room as well."
WEST GREENWICH – The Exeter-West Greenwich fastpitch softball team powered their way to a 5-2 victory at the softball complex behind Lineham School, defeating D II-South opponent Scituate with powerful bats and a power-pitching arm.
EWG came into Monday afternoon's matchup with an even 3-3 record, which ranked the Scarlet Knights fourth out of the six teams in the solid D II-South division. Scituate came down for the contest with a 1-4 record.
WAKEFIELD–Starting pitcher Tom Kazounis took the mound Friday afternoon for the Rebels as they looked to win back to back games for the first time this season. The Rebels came into the contest alternating wins and losses for the first five league games, posting a record of 3-2 and would face a struggling Pilgrim squad who had lost two straight and compiled a 2-3 record on the young season. Kazounis got off to a slow start allowing a leadoff double to Brendan Paiva, who would later score on a two-out, RBI single to left by the cleanup hitter, Chris Ray. The Patriots would not score again until the sixth inning when the game was already well out of reach.
KINGSTON — It has not been a pretty start to The University of Rhode Island's baseball season. Time and time again, the Rams have fallen to opposing teams in messy games with lopsided scores. Rams coach Jim Foster has been adamant that the team doesn't lack ability or heart, but rather experience and deep understanding of game theory. At the root, it would appear that the team's youth is keeping Rhody low on the scoreboard, though not in spirits.
NARRAGANSETT — Everybody loves a win for the home team, but baseball just isn't as exciting when the game is a slaughter. That was exactly the case when Narragansett's boys hosted visitor Rogers at Sprague Park on Monday afternoon. The Mariners took an early seven run lead in only the first inning, which lasted nearly a half hour, and showed the Vikings no mercy until Rhode Island Interscholastic League rules dictated they must. Narragansett and Rogers called it quits in the fifth inning when the score hit and all too easy 15-3 final.
SOUTH KINGSTOWN– SK's girl's lacrosse team spotted D I-South leading East Greenwich a 7-0 lead for the first half of Saturday afternoon's matchup at Curtis Corner Playfields and despite some surprise performances from underclassmen in the second, the Rebels could not manage enough offense, losing 14-5 and dropping their season record to 1-4. With the win EG moves their record to 4-1, the only loss coming to Bay View.
WEST WARWICK — The Prout and West Warwick baseball teams came into Monday's Division II-South encounter at McCarthy Field still trying to find their identities.
While the reigning II-South champions are still trying to find some solid pitching depth and good defense, the Wizards came into Monday's game after an ugly defeat against Chariho.

An exhibition of six innovative artists who continue to push and redefine the potential of paint.
Skin/Deep: Materiality, Sensuality and PaintWilliam Turner Gallery (2525 Michigan Ave, Santa Monica, CA 90404) Map it Free
William Turner Gallery is pleased to present, Skin/Deep: Materiality, Sensuality and Paint, an exhibition of six innovative artists who continue to push and redefine the potential of paint. By working the skin and surfaces of their medium, they reveal works of exceptional depth and character. While the same could be argued for any artist who achieves a level of mastery with materials, what sets this group apart is their adventurous spirit to push the limits, to explore uncharted terrain. Taken together, the paintings exemplify a virtuosity of technique that extends the expressive possibilities of the medium, accomplished mainly through an intimate understanding of the nature of the materials and a desire to broaden the vocabulary. To achieve such unusually nuanced effects, inherent properties of materials are exploited and utilized to an exceptional degree. In each case, attention to surface textures and sensualities lead to paintings of uncommon depth and power. Ed Moses was inspired by the random cracklings of paint in older works by Mondrian and others, and re-contextualized this phenomenon to create a visual poetry of color and texture. Casper Brindle has airbrushed his panels with high-end auto body paints coated with resin to create sublime atmospheres infused with saturated light. Andy Moses intricately mixes and pulls pearlescent paint over subtly shaped canvases to conjure compelling spaces of exquisite depth and shifting light. Jennifer Wolf creates her own pigments by grinding and mixing rocks, minerals, coral, shells and charcoal to ply their differing densities into intricate striations and luminescent fields. Jimi Gleason utilizes chrome and other materials to create highly burnished surfaces that dance with light, achieving an almost sculptural presence. Jordan Eagles has extended the painter's medium to include animal blood encased in resin resulting in gorgeous, moody works that are infused with a viscous sensuality and translucent light.- http://www.williamturnergallery.com

Con men posing as alarm company workers have tried to get into a few East Preston homes recently, the RCMP said Wednesday.
After receiving reports from residents there, the Mounties are advising the public to not let anyone pretending to be an alarm company employee into their homes.
At about 8:30 p.m. Tuesday, a resident in a Highway 7 home called police after answering the door for a man who said he was from Protectron Security.
The suspect said he needed to come inside to check the security system.
But the woman who lived in the home was suspicious and called the security firm.
Someone there told her the company did not have workers in the area, police said in a news release.
Once the woman talked to other neighbours, she learned that another man had recently done the same thing, but he claimed to be from a different alarm company.
That man left the property in a newer-model Volkswagen Jetta, RCMP said.

£16,700 boost for mum's project

A FUNDRAISING drive to breathe life into a former Andover club has been boosted with a five-figure grant.
Project Breakers Community Interest Company (CIC) has been awarded £16,700 by Hampshire County Council.
The decision will be officially announced by Councillor Keith Chapman, executive member for culture, recreation and countryside at his decision day meeting next Thursday.

Quoting ♥Lexies Mommy:" Ive always wondered if those work too. How long does it take to when your "suppose to" see results? How do you actually use them?"
From what I've read, is you put them on for 45min and then over the next 72 hours it tightens/firms things up. And you can repeat every 3rd day with another wrap. From the before/afters I've seen, you really see the difference after the 2nd or 3rd wrap.
And I had a friend that that used 6 and her stomach looked great! You could definitely tell, but then she started eating out every day and her changes quickly disappeared, lol.
I'm not holding my breathe, but I'm hoping it does do something.
I'll take pictures before/after each wrap and share with you ladies!
Quoting aℓyssa
Quoting ♥Lexies Mommy:" Sounds great have you started using one so far?"
Not yet! They'll be here the 9th.. but I think I'm gonna after the 20th, so then then I'll have to time to buy more wraps if I need to, but the results SHOULD still be here when Seth gets back in February. :D

Quoting ~*~ Nichole ~*~:" Well I started the low carb diet yesterday, yay! Starting weight yesterday was 190.3 so down a few lbs ... [snip!] ... only for two weeks so I'll be fine lol. Starting working out today too. Just reinstated my gym membership, soooo excited!!"
I hope doing low carb works well for you! That is great you are going back to the gym! I am thinking about joining the YMCA near me. What type of machines do you like to do at the gym?
Quoting TooManyWordsToKnow=D:" Well, I had to upload a photo for a challenge I am on on MFP so I thought I would add it to this too, to track better. "
Great job getting before pics done. I always miss this step and regret it later!
Quoting ♥Love♥:" I hope doing low carb works well for you! That is great you are going back to the gym! I am thinking about joining the YMCA near me. What type of machines do you like to do at the gym?"
I like the stair stepper and treadmill for cardio, and for weights I do a lot of free weights for upper body and use the machines for lower body.
We went to David's Bridal yesterday to get my best friends wedding dress picked out and look at bridesmaids dresses. We found her an absolutely gorgeous dress! And we got our dresses.
I tried on a 14 (which is really like a 12, from my experience from that DB!) and it was loose.. all over. Like, I would have definitely needed it altered. So, I tried a 12 and it DID zip but it was tight. I decided to go with it anyways, in hopes that it will keep my motivated!

Quoting ♥Love♥:" That is so aweome!! Congrats! Ive shopped there and noticed there stuff runs small! That must have been ... [snip!] ... in plenty of time so Im using that as my motivator! How many pounds does it take you to lose a dress size? Like 20 Im guessing?"
Yeah, everytime I've shopped there I've been told not to get discouraged by the sizes because they run typically one size smaller than most! Even my wedding dress was a size bigger than I was wearing at that time.
I really don't know how much to lose to have it fit, but I'm hoping 15-20lb will make it fit perfect, even though by June, I'd ideally like to be down another 30lb!
Quoting ♥Lexies Mommy:" Ahh thats great what an awesome experience. Did you like davids bridal?. I am thinking I am going to get my wedding dress from there. If you dont mind me asking how much did her dress cost?"
I liked her experience with David's Bridal WAY more than my experience (even though it was the same store). But I would recommend them. :)
Her dress was $650 and I think my dress from there was around $1200! I had an oleg cassini, where hers was just the davids bridal brand! I seriously love hers though!
Hey ladies! Sorry I've been gone. Trying to limit my BG time, haha. Wanted to update on my progress.
Here's a pic of my progress

[Note by Ben, 07/16/08 2:13 PM EDT] Promoted from Fanposts, this story won't die and mmford10, all the commenters and I will not let it until Brett is signed with another team.
I've seen some measures of support for Brett Favre on this Web site, and definitely agree with some of the points.
Unfortunately, my opinion hasn't changed that Brett Favre should not ever be a Redskin. Unfortunately for you guys, I'm going to write about that now.
Here's the first thing I have to get off my chest. Jason Campbell is not Patrick Ramsey. Comparing Campbell to a bonafide first round bust -- a guy who never made the playoffs and was drafted by Steve Freaking Spurrier -- is unfair. Campbell has demonstrated poise, mobility, and a good arm. Yes, he fumbled a lot (13 times? God damn!). Yes, he was the anti-clutch last season in Dallas and Tampa. But he's who we're leaning on, and by God, we have to keep trying. If he misses out this year -- after 5 years in the league -- then we should probably seek an alternative via high draft pick. But Campbell still hasn't played a full NFL season, and now will have the best receiving corps he'll ever see with the returning guys and the rookie beasts.
Also, are we really willing to give up a first-round pick -- and pay something like $12 million in salary -- for Brett Favre for one (or maybe, maybeeee 2) season(s)? And disrupt the chemistry of Campbell and WR's/TE's/RB's? How about this -- if Campbell sucks it up this year, then use that first round pick next year to draft another quarterback! This doesn't make sense! This isn't fantasy football!
You realize, right, that if we use Brett Favre for a season we then, ultimately, turn back to Campbell (or, even worse, a new quarterback) after one season. What's the point? We're not going to be that much better in one season with Favre -- especially this late in the preseason process -- that halting Campbell's development for a season will pay off. Say we get Favre -- let's be real, 'Skins fans. We're not a QB away from the Super Bowl. Especially not a one-year lease that is pushing 40 and comes with more offseason distractions than any non-WR or convicted felon in the NFL.
We drafted Jason Campbell. We have seen his potential. We're stuck with him. He's all of 26 years old. Let's ride this one out, and let old man Favre excite the fans in Baltimore or Minnesota for a season -- or flop all over the place without good WR's and ridiculously high expectations.

PLATTEVILLE (WKOW) -- Grant County deputies respond to a report of an assault outside a Platteville woman's home.
Police say at about 6:40 p.m. on Saturday, a 49-year-old woman who lives in Oak Park Trailer Park had left her home to run some errands.
The incident happened on the 5200 block of Classic Lane.
When she returned, she was attacked as she walked from her car to front door. Deputies say it was a lone assailant.
Police say they are looking for a white, male about 6-feet-6-inches tall. He was wearing dark clothing and a ski mask. The suspect took off running and deputies were not able to find him.
During the attack, the victim was struck several times in the face and did her best to fight off the suspect. Seconds after the attack started a car came into the driveway and the suspect was scared off. The victim ran into her house and called 911.
The victim was taken to a hospital in Platteville where she was treated for facial injuries.
Anyone with information should call the Grant County Sheriff's Department or Grant County Crime Stoppers at (608) 723-2157.


text: I know this has been over analyzed and over analyzed, but I still can't come up with a logical explanation of why we Didn't see fat wayne last night. It would seem that if he were going to make a comeback it would have been last night up nearly 30. All of the back ups got in the game except for Blackshear, and he is the one that seemingly has the most potential to contribute as a back up. (This is probably arguable I know, but surely he has the potential to contribute as much as a guy like Ware or Nunez right now). The only reason I can come up with is that Pitino wants to put him in on the road. Is he still having health issues? It just almost seems like there is something else going on here that no one really knows about. Either way, if he doesn't play against WVU, I might be giving up on the possibility of seeing him this year. Thoughts???

Constitutional Law
After AWOL Argentine Affair, Gov. Sanford Now Faces Ethics Charges Over Expenses
Posted Nov 23, 2009 6:02 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
The governor of South Carolina is accused of taking illicit upgrades from coach to business or first class, as well as misusing government planes for personal purposes including a haircut, in 37 charges filed today by the state ethics commission.
Gov. Mark Sanford has been scrutinized on multiple fronts after a secret trip to Argentina to visit a woman with whom he was having an affair came to light in June. But attorney Butch Bowers, who represents the Republican leader, says in a written statement that none of the misconduct alleged in the 17-page document released today comes anywhere close to the wrongdoing traditionally required to force a sitting governor from office, reports the New York Times.
"We are confident that we will be able to address each of these questions, none of which constitutes findings of guilt and none of which we believe rise anywhere near to the traditional standard of impeachment, now that we finally have an opportunity to present our side of the story," Bowers says.
Only the state attorney general can determine whether to file criminal charges against Sanford, and he is now reviewing the report, recounts CNN Politics.
But the ethics commission report may add momentum to an existing impeachment effort that has been simmering for months, the blog says. That resolution, which would have to be approved by two-thirds of both houses of the state legislature before Sanford could be removed from office, was pursued over his departure from the state to visit his mistress in Argentina without either informing his staff or arranging for an alternate chain of command.
A hearing on the ethics charges is likely early next year.

Keys batter Bedwas to make Swalec Cup quarter-finals – Bedwas 3 Cross Keys 31
Updated 6:51pm Saturday 15th February 2014 in Sport By Iwan Gabe Davies
CROSS Keys director of rugby Jonathan Westwood paid tribute to his front five who paved the way for the club entering the Swalec Cup quarter-finals.
The 2012 champions cruised past Bedwas with a superb forward effort to bounce back in style after being humbled at the Bridge Field last month.
Keys lost 22-12 that day in the Principality Premiership, outmuscled by the home side's pack.
But what a difference three short weeks can make, the tables turned completely as the visitors scrummaged the hosts to death to provide a cast iron platform.
And with a player as good as Keys' up and coming Dorian Jones dictating matters at outside-half, the end result was never really in doubt.
Westwood was pleased with the impressive performance and felt his men answered their critics in the best way after what was a comprehensive defeat to Bedwas at the end of January, despite the losing margin only being ten points last month.
"We needed this victory big time because we embarrassed ourselves three weeks ago in a performance that was dishonest in many ways," he said.
"I was delighted with how the front five played in particular.
"But it was also a good team performance and to score 31 points against a good side like Bedwas, who are very difficult to beat at home, is an achievement."
Keys made a statement of their intent from the off. They started with a big bang, surging into the Bedwas 22.
Their powerful scrum then shunted the hosts back from five metres out, captain and number eight Adam Powell touching down for a pushover try, fly-half Dorian Jones slotting the conversion to give the visitors a 7-0 lead after five minutes.
Bedwas hit back with a penalty from their No 10 Richard Powell, Keys guilty of being heavily penalised in the contact area.
But that was about as good as it got for the shell-shocked hosts, the Pandy Park side powerful scrum making mince meat of the home eight, which began retreating at a rate of knots, for inside-half Rhys Dyer to score his side's second try to put them 12-3 up after 20 minutes.
Keys outside-half Dorian Jones may have narrowly missed the conversion but he made up for it with a majestic penalty seconds later, his team in total control.
An act of brotherly love saw his full-back sibling Rhys, back from his globetrotting Wales Sevens adventures, touch down for their third try after a neat cross-kick by the No 10 as Keys built up a 20-3 advantage.
The game was held up for several minutes just before the interval when Bedwas No 9 Tom Edwards was stretched from the field with a leg injury, although thankfully it wasn't a serious one.
And the Keys backs showed the forwards that they weren't going to win it completely alone when they showed slick hands for wing James Cordy-Redden to cross for their fourth try, a sparkling score in the mud.
The half-time score saw the visiting team full value for their 25-3 lead and the game already won.
The second half started in a similar vein, the home side's scrum such a devastating weapon, Dorian Jones kicking two penalties from the relentless pressure to stretch their lead.
Bedwas did try and get back in the game but only put Keys under any real pressure in the final quarter, visiting lock Ollie Hodge sin binned.
The hosts didn't take advantage of having an extra man however, the visitors holding out with relative ease.
Keys looked like their old selves again and are a good bet to do very well in the competition again this season.

LAS VEGAS - Police were bombarded with calls Friday night about a reckless driver who was putting other motorists in danger.
The silver PT Cruiser was seen speeding and swerving moments before the wreck. Metro Police investigators say it ran off South Rainbow, sped through the desert, and got back on the road driving in the wrong direction. The car eventually collided with a Honda near Rainbow and Wigwam. The PT Cruiser caught fire after the accident.
Emergency crews rushed both drivers to University Medical Center. The driver of the Honda was listed in critical condition while the driver of the PT Cruiser was listed in serious in condition after arriving at the hospital. Metro Police say it appears alcohol and/or drugs could be a factor in this crash.
"We've had a lull in serious fatal accidents here recently, and we want to remind the public don't get sucked in," Metro Police Detective Bill Redfairn said. "You can still get involved in a serious crash like this at anytime. You never know when your number might come up."
Eyewitness Mark Richman says the PT Cruiser ran him off the road prior to the accident. "I turned around and followed the guy, because I wanted to call Metro to let them know there was a reckless driver out there with a death wish," he said. Richman was dialing 911, when he came upon the head-on collision. "I don't think there's anything that could have been done with this type of accident. The PT guy was looking to kill himself or kill someone," he said.

Recap: Try Something New Tuesday 150
Hello there!
How are you doing this morning? I hope your week has been awesome so far. Mine seems to be flying by, which is great because I've got a fun long weekend coming up! More about that later though – we've got healthy recipes and new things to discuss!
1. Recipe of the Week. Please pardon my salmon obsession once again. I really couldn't resist this week! Salmon is the star protein in my meals at least once per week, but it's most often in canned or frozen form because I'm not made of money. Once in a while though, I like to treat myself to a gorgeous, rich, smooth piece of the fresh kind.
Because my mum is awesome, she still sends me Valentine's Day presents. And because she knows me well (as all mums should), this Valentine's Day I received a Sobey's gift card. You might find this about as exciting as receiving a pair of socks at Christmas time, but to me, it's almost as great as receiving a new Lululemon item or kitchen gadget. (Not quite as great, but still pretty darn good.) Somehow I managed not to spend that gift card until this past weekend. The items picked up during my grocery trip included the following:
Meals have been screaming spring here in my kitchen these days, and this Baked Salmon with Creamy Lemon Dill Pasta is a prime example. My 'pasta' was actually zucchini noodles, but I realize that not everyone has a spiralizer. This recipe would be perfect with actual whole grain noodles, and I've included instructions for that here.
The best thing about this recipe (apart from the fact that it contains my favourite fish, obviously) is that you can have it on the table in 25 minutes. While the salmon bakes, I spiralized my zucchini, mixed up my dill and lemon sauce, AND painted my nails. Now that my friends, is evidence of an easy-to-make dinner.
Click here for the recipe!
2. Alexia Foods All-Natural Sweet Potato Fries. A while back, one of my favourite bloggers, Mama Pea, posted several recipes that used Alexia Foods Sweet Potato Fries. At the time, I don't think they were available in Canada, or at least not in the grocery stores that I frequent here in southern Ontario.
Here's a look at the label:
Hmm, not bad at all! That's a hefty amount of vitamin A in one serving, not to mention low in fat and sodium. But what did I do with them? Well, because I love sweet potatoes and the convenience of having them all pre-cut into fries, not a whole lot! I just whipped up a batch of my Chipotle 'Mayo' (which isn't actually mayo – it's a healthified Greek yogurt version but you'd never know the difference!) and used it as a dipper for my sweet potato fries during dinner yesterday night.
After about 20 minutes in the oven, they came out nice and crispy.
The verdict? Really, really tasty. Plain french fries bore me (not to mention the fact that they're usually fried in grease and therefore I haven't gone near them in years) but I loved the natural sweetness of the sweet potato mixed with the little bit of sea salt that comes on the fries. My only complaint is that they go really, really soggy if you put leftover ones in the fridge. Lesson learned. Next time, I'll just eat them all!
I'm always an advocate of making your own food rather than buying the packaged kind, but when there's a need for convenience (ie you're starving after a long day at work, or you have kids to feed, or you just can.not.be.bothered to do any sort of food prep at all), I think these make a quick, clean, healthy, option.
So tell me…
- What are some of your go-to healthy convenience foods that you always keep on hand?
- Sweet potato fry fans: What are your favourite dippers? I loved the chipotle mayo with these, but I'm already thinking about an Indian curry dip for next time!

that is GREAT multi-tasking, angela, even squeezing in the nail painting!!
so, where did you find the alexia sweet potato fries, please? i would try those! sobey's?
i think a grocery store GC is a great idea, too – so fun to treat yourself to out-of-the-ordinary items.
I have seen these fries at Costco before!
I recently discovered homemade beer-soaked sweet potato fries. Resto-quality fries, without all the deep fried yuckiness. If you try them out, I'd love to know how you like them.
"Organic wild caught salmon that costs way too much" – yes! But also tastes wayyy better than that Blue Liner (?) stuff.
Yumm…i love sweet potato fries!! I don't dip ours in anything. We cut our potatoes and bake them with a little olive oil, garlic, pepper, and red pepper flakes for some kick. The faster they can get in my belly, the better!
We try to have fish every week, but fresh was getting a little expensive, so I picked up a pack of frozen salmon and frozen tilapia this week at the store.
We always have ample stores of fruit in the house and I try to snack on that.
We just bought these fries from Costco last week! Can't beat the convenience but you definitely need something to dip them in! A little bland I thought considering the spices listed. I think I am just bias since I am so used to making sweet pot fries from scratch at home using a blend of Indian spices. I like to make a rosemary "mayo" (Greek yogurt like you) for it with lots of fresh lemon and garlic for tang – so good!
Your zucchini noodles look amazing! Yum!
Your salmon looks delicious! I have seen those sweet potato fries at the store but haven't tried them yet. Sweet potato fries are my favorite, so I'll have to grab them next time!!
You have my belly rumbling! I think it's time for lunch…
This looks so healthy and delicious! The salmon that you cooked looks amazing! Great recipe!
just stumbled upon your blog and it's so great! your zucchini noodles and salmon looks so, so amazing. will definitely have to try!
We made this salmon recipe in my house tonight for dinner and it was delish! I absolutely love using zucchini in place of pasta, especially when I want a pasta dish sans the extra heaviness and carbs. Thank you for a great post!

- Businessweek's Adam Satariano: New iPhones mark shift from pioneer to emulator.
- Cnet's Charles Cooper: We live in boring times.

Even Apple's No. 1 fanboy, M.G. Siegler, couldn't muster up the enthusiasm to tell us how great the iPhone is and instead devoted his coverage to the observation that Apple design honcho Jonathan Ive seemed to prefer the cheapo plastic 5c models to the flagship 5s. How does he know this? Ive's voice sound marginally more passionate in the 5c product video, he thinks.
This is probably how Siegler decides where to invest Google Ventures' billions, too. Where can I get a job like that?
It may well be that the smartphone market has reached the point where any improvements will be purely incremental, not life-altering. I get that. But it doesn't explain the lack of anything else even remotely interesting being introduced. Just a few years ago, Apple was the company that defined our digital dreams. Now they're regurgitating last year's technology in Kool-Aid colors.
I haven't played with iOS 7 yet, but unless it's a massive rethinking of the last version -- and from what I can tell, it isn't -- Apple is now behind the interface curve, not ahead of it. As InfoWorld's own Galen Gruman notes, Apple has stooped to stealing ideas from Android and Windows Phone. Yes, it has come to that.
So I'm sticking with my declaration from last week: Stick a fork in Apple, it's done. The world's 10 million rabid Apple bloggers need to find a new object for their digital obsessions.

Fall is in the air! Can't wait to watch this game. Win or lose, I'm proud to be an FSU fan! Enough of my banter, lets get to it. Right now a strong cold push from Canada is making its way through the Midwest and Ohio river valley. By the end of the week we are going to have lows in the 40's here in St. Louis. Although this system isn't packing much of a punch with some much need rains this way it will stall and lay across the southeast this weekend. That's gonna be the main issue to keep an eye on.
Right now I believe the models are handling the frontal system well. I believe the chance for rain will be small at game time. I do believe a few pop up storms will occur in the Tallahassee region on Saturday afternoon but should diminish in coverage rapidly as the sun sets. Expect temps to be a bit cooler Saturday night as the frontal system will push through the region late Friday night. Temps will only reach 85 Saturday, enabling copious amounts of tailgating! Here's what I've got for the game.
Thunderstorm chances @ 20%
Temp at game-time: 75F falling into the 60's by games end
Chance of FSU beating the spread: 38% (banking on Stoops road game record)
