I don't have a problem with GGG wanting Mayweather, however, he is a 160 fighter and there is plenty of fighters that he should be concentrating on. Peter Kid Chocolate Quillen, Sergio Martinez and a few others. he is saying he would come down to 154 but still. If Mayweather says no to GGG, it s a duck and he is scared. Like the late great Manny Steward would say: We have weight classes for a reason.
Any thoughts?

Surprise surprise, somebody wants a Mayweather fight.....at this point the real news is who doesn't want a fight with Mayweather. GGG will get a fight with Sergio or Ward before he gets that fight, and his meteoric rise might end in either one of them
Pretty much says it all

Cost of spam keeps on adding up
Fri August 10, 2012 4:13pm
Are you immune to being bombarded with spam emails asking if you're interested in a penis enlargement or losing weight fast?
Do you sometimes wonder how anyone could make any money out these annoying messages?
Though the emails may seem like a minor irritant, with 94 billion spam messages sent daily, it all adds up - and it's costing society around $20 billion, The Atlantic reports.
Two researchers at Microsoft and Google, Justin Rao and David Reiley, teamed up to estimate the cost of spam to society relative to its worldwide revenues.
The cost to society, their report The Economics of Spam says, is $20 billion and the revenue adds up to just $200 million.
As they note, "spammers are dumping a lot on society and reaping fairly little in return."
The researchers went one step further, likening the scourge of spam emails to air pollution and car theft.
Car exhaust fumes and spam email produce what economists call negative externalities, a spillover cost of a transaction that others in society have to pay, The Huffington Post says.
So why are spam emails costing so much?
As The Huffington Post points out, the figure of $20 billion is derived from the cost of developing the software required to filter out spam emails and the few seconds it takes to delete every spam email that isn't successfully blocked.
Consumers are also affected in other ways- with engineers at Google, Yahoo and other email providers tied up fighting spam, they have less time to build fun, new features, The Huffington Post says.

Welcome to our last installment of Better know your Enemy: The NFC South. Previews of confederate enemies, namely the Falcons, Tampon Bay Suckaneers, and the Taints have been dished out. Now we arrive at our last opponent of the swarthy south. Our final opponent from the NFC is also our last home game of the year. This is yet another 8-8 team that we get to face this year. But again, all 8-8's are not created equal. Lets see what to expect from this battle against the Carolina Kittens
Panthers are large black cats, natives of jungle habitats. Therefore we have a relatively inappropriately named team here. I hate that and it stanks. As Panthers are in no way indigenous to Carolina by any means. Most large cats in the area are actually cougars (much like the women who attend their games). Coincidentally its actually illegal to own a panther in Carolina, while its legal in Tennessee. Figures.
Other reasons to hate Carolina. Probable arrival of Gulf Oil, illegal to use jetski-s on the ocean side, meaning you have to use the stupid shallow calm water side, family vacations with your ADHD cousins, family vacations with your emotionally unstable ex girlfriend, having to drive an extra 2 hours to arrive at said vacation destination cause the only GD bridge across to the OBX is through Nags Head, dad refusing to take you to Sonic when you drive home. Also this team represents two states, which is retarded. It sets a bad precedent. Just wait for the Virginia Rednecks and Dakota Tornados to become teams. Pick a side! North or South. East or West. Dont mess with me! Failing to beat the patriots in their SuperBowl, Jake Delhomme, a probable terrorist who just retired (Muhammed), Tattoos werent legal until 2004, and the states have a very high hate crime rate, likely due to their continued KKK membership.
So yeah I hate em and they stank.
Feline zoology aside, lets focus on football. For the Kittens, they are a team that seems to be plagued by Bengal-like inconsistency from season to season. They've never paired two winning seasons together (they have two followed by .500 records). That having been said, their inconsistency hasn't dropped them off a cliff. They've had at least a 7-9 record every year from 2002 to now. Thats a pretty impressive streak. And remember, this was a team one game away from playing us in SBXL, so they're not exactly far removed from major success. Although they havent won a playoff game since then, losing to our eventual victims the Cardinals two years ago.
So with that backstory, lets focus on this season for them. And our matchup. The Kittens had an 8-8 record last year, largely due to the futile Jake Delhomo, who was shipped off to Cleveland, which is a punishment virtually equivalent to a terrorist being sent to Guantanamo Bay. Steve Smith is still aging, and it shows being that he got injured playing flag football. Which is like getting a neck injury from sneezing too hard. Muhsin Muhammed retired. Peppers isnt on the team anymore either.
This leaves the team with a lot of question marks. Matt Moore stepped in and played well towards the end of the season as time went on. Jimmy Clausen was drafted by the Kittens to possibly provide some competition, although I imagine Moore will start. But if he flounders, dont be surprised to see Clausen step in. Either way, we get to pick on a greenhorn in this game. This makes the lips of James Harrison water with anticipation. More on that later.
To me the end result here is that the Panthers have actually dropped off more than improved this offseason. They havent had a first round pick in two years, they're picks have been slow to develop. Although Everette Brown looks like he's going to take Julius Peppers spot, I dont see him breaking out much. End result, you have a defense with a lot of unpolished talent, and an aging offense which has nothing but a run game this year.
And we shall exploit that immensely. Steve Smith and Dexter Jackson look to be the 1 and 2 this year. Thats not exactly a fear inspiring combination anymore. And if the ball cant get to either one, well it wont matter. I dont care if its freefaller Clausen or Matt Moore throwing the ball, I think we'll be alright handling it. The offense's strength lies in the ground game. They had the epic feat of 2x 1000 yard rushers last year. Thats obviously our most important focus in this game. Defend the run, and stop the Panthers.
The Kittens' weakness is their closure. Despite almost 2500 rushing yards as a team, they found themselves 19th in scoring offense. Its strange to see such a bizarre gap, although we can relate with our redzone troubles last year. They also had turnover machine Delhomme screwing the pooch the whole first half of the year. Despite this, they still finished with a +6 turnover ratio.
Our defense has to avoid the big play from the run. You cant expect to hold them to 50 yards. But just keep that from happening on one play. We gave up a lot of big plays last year, and that cant happen this year. Its crucial in this game not to give Carolina any big field position gains. The passing game shouldnt be all that difficult to defend with a serious lack of playmakers in the air. And of course, we will have our blitz ready for whichever QB puts his hands under the centers nutsack on this glorious day. I for one cant wait to see that "crap my pants" look on their nubile faces.
On the flip side, we face a defense that also has some questions. One big one. What happens without Peppers?
This defense has been in the top 10 most of the last few years, and clearly Peppers has been a serious component of that. His consistent pressure out of a 4-3 has been a gamechanging power. But he is no longer on this team. Who makes up for his 10.5 sacks last year? The next best player had 5. Perhaps the 2nd round pick in 09 is ready to start. He had 2.5 sacks in limited time last year with 2 forced fumbles. But I'd be hesitant to expect much.
However, on the flip side. Who does he line up against. We have an equally big question. Our very own William Colon has fallen. I personally am hoping for Jonothan Scott from Buffalo to play thi year. I think he has upside. In addition, he played this team last year, and won 20-9. That could be a solid advantage that may not realize. It never hurts a players confidence to have beaten the team a year ago. He's the only one on our roster with recent experience against Carolina, and I hope he can offer some insight.
The secondary of this team is adequate and plays to a solid level. However again, it depends on that pressure. I think this game will be a lot easier than it looked last year without Peppers harassing Large Benjamin at every moment.
Our offense needs to take advantage of Carolina's relatively porous rush defense, and avoid passing. Although we tend to stumble a bit against 4-3's, we can likely take control against one with a few changing parts. Carolina allowed 125 yards a game. So lets hope Mendenhall can dominate against this team.
This game is a tough one to predict. Obviously we play a team that has some retooling to do, but this game is also week 16. Meaning a lot can change from today. We dont know who is going to be playing in a few areas, and neither do they. Lets hope that we can dominate the hell out of the year, and week 16 we'll be starting Dennis Dixon and Dwyer, but not because we need them to, but because we've already clinched the bejeesus out of everything.
As a side note. This game is the last one in Pittsburgh for the year. So I have a feeling we are going to come ready to play, hopefully to give the fans a last huzzah. On top of that, it means the Warm Weather Kittens have to come to the slush stadium of Heinz Field. I look for that to be a serious factor. If Steve Smith can break his arm in flag football in summer, just watch what happens when Troy P lays him out over the middle in the dead of winter. Lets pray for some snow to slip up DeAngelo and Stewart. I hate warm weather teams and they stank.

Here's a name to add to the hotlist for 2011.
Jalen Reynolds
HS: Livonia-Stevenson
AAU: R.E.A.C.H. Legends
Ht: 6'9"
Wt: 210lbs
Saginaw High coach Lou Dawkins may have predicted it last September but Jalen Reynolds is the hot name in Michigan basketball recruiting this summer. He is a long, 6'9" forward who has received excellent scouting reports from ESPN and our buddies over at UMHoops. He's described as having a combination of size and quickness that makes him a tough match-up on either end of the court. Both sources say that Reynolds is a significant scoring threat and plays with a high level of energy.
Here is the ESPN take:
April, 2010: Reynolds is a long and wiry power forward with good skill. He can hit mid range jumpers with regularity and attack the rim from the high post or short corner. He scores with not only his good athletic ability but with his excellent length. Reynolds runs the floor extremely well and can beat less mobile post down the floor for easy baskets on a regular basis. Reynolds will need to add strength but does a great job on the glass on both ends of the floor. He rebounds with two hands and never lost the ball in traffic. Reynolds looks to screen for on the ball where he can roll or pop. On the offensive end he is active as well and a constant threat for an athletic tips in. Reynolds is productive and seems to be a good team player although I would like to see him demand the ball more because he could easily add to his already nice stat lines. Defensively Reynolds is a major factor as well. He hustles and covers ground like a small forward. He works to contest shots on the ball or helping a teammate. Reynolds good talent and great upside. This young forward could be a sleeper in the class of 2011. One to watch.
As you can guess from the links, the University of Michigan is giving Reynolds a lot of attention and he has spoken about wanting to stay close to home (MSU/UM) for college. At the same time, Jalen is courting interest from other Midwest schools like Xavier, Wisconsin, Cincinnati, and Ohio. MSU has been in contact but it's unclear how high Reynolds might climb up Coach Izzo's priority list. If you follow in-state basketball recruiting, this is a name to know.
Here's some videos where you can see him in action, on and off the court.

30 Days of Female Characters, Day 30: Favorite actress
Diane Keaton
Today was "anything you like!" and so, since a couple days ago I picked my favorite female author - favorite woman who creates awesome fictional women - I decided today to pick my favorite actress - favorite woman who portrays awesome fictional women. And that woman, for me, is Diane Keaton. It could be just that she acts in a lot of movies that I enjoy: '70s-era Woody Allen films, The Godfather movies, Reds which is a movie I don't think anyone else I've met loves on quite the level I do… but I also just think that it's amazing how she's played such a wide variety of interesting, nuanced women so well while still sort of bringing her own individual character to them.
I think that last one is where some people I've met think she "plays the same person in every movie" but I don't see how you can say that if you've seen her in even just a few films. Her two probably best-known roles - Kay Adams-Corleone from The Godfather movies, and Annie Hall from the film of the same title - are wildly different, to the extent that I think a "best movies ever" book I was reading once called Kay "the anti-Annie Hall." The most you can say those two have in common is that they both leave their dudes at the end (well, at the end of The Godfather: Part II), but it's in a very different context. Annie's arc is of her coming into herself, while Kay's is of her being slowly broken down. When Annie leaves it's, while perhaps bittersweet for viewers who might have wanted her and Alvy to end up together, entirely a positive moment for her personally - a new beginning, her stepping into the life she wants. When Kay finally leaves Michael in The Godfather: Part II, it's a moment of triumph for her, but a very pyrrhic one. She's had to betray her ideals just to avoid a worse fate, and she is more escaping an awful life she didn't sign up for than building the life she wants. (After all, even her kids stay with Michael.)
And Louise Bryant from Reds - the other Diane Keaton role I have in a gif here - is even more different from those two. She's an independent, career-minded woman who repeatedly tries to assert herself and build her own existence, while still falling in love, in the sexist world and expectations of 1910s America - where, even the progressives don't always take her seriously. She's a woman in control of her own destiny - or at least, trying to be - from the beginning of the film. (And an actual historical woman who loved other women! Seriously, go check out more about her if you haven't heard of Louise Bryant.)
And Keaton plays all these very different women excellently, and in a way where you just can't imagine anybody else as these characters. And they're just a small slice of her many roles.
I don't know, man, there are a lot of actresses I admire but she's just the one I keep coming back to - and maybe it's that the roles she chooses appeal to me so much, but I think Keaton is a very talented and often underrated actress.
And that concludes this 30-day meme! Which one should I do next, followers?

Without much opposition it's safe to say that the moment that AP nation (mostly) has been waiting for is upon us. Ryan Lilja is coming back to Kansas City, and he may be here to stay. Stampede Blue and Arrowhead Pride (more so) have been following Ryan Lilja very closely since his release.
The original news break of his release here- (Arrowhead Pride) (Stampede Blue)
The original announcement of his scheduled visit here- (Arrowhead Pride)
A quick scroll down to the comments will show you how anxious us Chiefs fans have been and how livid Colts fans have been on the release, and for good reason Lilja is a good player.
Over on Stampede Blue, commenters tout Lilja as the second best offensive lineman in their line up, second only to Jeff Saturday. At only 28, you'd think a staple on the offensive line that just finished a Super Bowl (losing) season would have some job security. Apparently not. Lilja's release could be explained several ways.
Victim of the Tight Wad GM
A lot of people will hope that he was cut for financial reasons The only defense in this argument is that Lilja, by starting every game of the 2009-2010 season, triggered a clause in his contract that upped his salary.
As said in the Indianapolis Star
By starting all 16 games in 2009, Colts LG Ryan Lilja triggered a clause that will return his future salaries to their original levels.Lilja was forced to take a pay-cut missing the 2008 season with knee problems, causing his future base salaries to drop.
However Lilja was payed his entire ($1.7 Million) roster bonus before he was cut. On top of that he made no more than an average starting guard in the NFL even with the pay raise. Making about 3.6 million a year on average, in comparison to other contracts he was getting paid about as much as Wade Smith is now with the Texans.
Victim to "Square Peg, Round Hole"
Another argument is that Lilja simply no longer fit the profile of the type of offensive lineman the Colts are looking for. With now sophomore head coach Jim Caldwell leading the "new look Colts" and new offensive line coach Pete Metzelaars leading it's line, the commitment to getting bigger has taken it's first victim.
Per Lilja's agent following the release;
"[The Colts] said they want to go bigger, and they let him go,''
At 6'2" 290 lbs. His size and lack of ability to play in a power blocking scheme, ironically has been both the reason Lilja left Kansas City and why he may come back.
Victim to the Injury Bug
Lilja also has had a injury bug plague him in the past with reoccurring knee problems and more recently a back problem.
Adam Caplan tweeted this regarding Lilja's release
That Explains his release. On top of his knee problems, Lilja was also nursing a back injury the week before the Super Bowl.
But the fact that he started every game, in the longest season possible in the NFL (Super Bowl run) has got to at least be promising in regards to Lilja shaking the injury bug.
Victim to the "Kill One Save Many" rule.. Or lopsided play
Over the coarse of Lilja's career he has played extremely well in pass protection but was just "serviceable" in run blocking because of his small frame, even when he played in zone blocking scheme of sorts under Tony Dungy. Regardless it's hard to properly gage Lilja's ability to run block considering the Colts run a 3:1 pass to run offense.
Lilja, along with the rest of the Colts super bowl offensive line, were criticized by Bill Polian following the super bowl
"The offensive line, by our standards, did not have a good game," Polian said. "They were outplayed by the Saints' defensive line, I thought, pretty decisively."
If you follow you'd see he never openly criticizes players. Lilja seemed to be the sacrificial lamb the Colts will use to scare it's players into performing. Think about it, low risk of returning to your division (Jaguars, Titans, and Texans all use power blocking schemes), a big name on your O line, and small potent reasons for cutting him.
Either way I'm happy that he's back in Kansas City for the time being. Considering our current crop of guards, Lilja would be a significant upgrade and would not cost the Chiefs a draft pick either. And you have to believe with Lilja being from Kansas City (not a neighboring city but Kansas City itself) and having played college ball at Kansas State, has a pretty strong fan base (family included) that will be urging him to sign.
In regards to contract expectations against Lilja's demand in the open market.
Caplans tweet referenced above continues on to say
He may have to accept a one-year offer this season to prove that he can stay healthy and effective
In my opinion all he has to do is pass a physical, and we'll have a solid interior lineman for a long time.

Getty Images/Chris Graythen
The raw stats: 14/15 for 200 yards, 4 TDs, 0 INTs, 12 rushes for 84 yards.
158.3 is the highest possible passer rating that a QB can get. It was the 15th "perfect" game in the last 10 years, and the 53rd in NFL history (among QBs who made at least 10 passing attempts).
The most amazing part of RG3's season has been his consistency.
He hasn't had a game with more than 1 INT, he has completed more than 60% of his passes in 8 of his 10 starts, and his lowest-ever passer rating is a not-that-terrible 72.8.
At this point we're used to rookie QBs putting up spectacular performances, but those are usually counterbalanced with a couple of straight-up awful games (like Andrew Luck's game yesterday).
RG3 has avoided these clunkers, and has been so steady that we take it for granted that could have such a historic game as a rookie.

(WMC-TV) – Clarksdale, Miss. police are searching for the people responsible for several shootings on Sunday. One person was killed and five people, including a child, were injured in the series of shootings.
Sunday morning around 10 a.m., police found Rico Butler, 36, had been shot several times. He was pronounced dead at the scene in the 100 block of Adams Avenue. A second man was hit in the arm by gunfire. According to police, the victim was sitting inside Butler's vehicle when he was shot. The man was taken to the hospital.
Sources tell WMC Action News 5 that Butler was a high ranking member of an active gang, but police are not confirming that information.
Four other people were shot in subsequent shootings in the city later Sunday evening. It is unclear if the crimes are related.
Just before 11 p.m. Sunday, a shooting was reported in the 700 block of Catalpa Street. A man was shot one time in the foot. He was treated at the hospital.
Around 11:15 p.m., police were called to a shooting in the 600 block of Ritchie Street. Police found two men had been shot outside of an apartment complex.
A 7-year-old boy found inside an apartment at the complex was also shot once. Police say the apartment where the child was does not appear to be the intended target. All three victims were treated at the hospital with what police say appear to be non life-threatening injuries.
There are no suspects in custody and Clarksdale police are following up on several leads. They are asking that anyone with information about these shootings to call Clarksdale Police Department at 662-621-8151 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

The most intriguing themed project to open in some time is one you will never have a chance to experience — that is, unless you join the US Navy. In the theme parks world, the hairsbreadth entertainment involves safely fictional, and fanciful, life-and-death situations; at Battle Stations 21, an $82.5 million installation at the Navy's only boot camp, the Great Lakes Naval Station, the simulated life-and-death situations are grippingly real, as recruits grapple with the kinds of scenarios they are likely to face once their training is complete.
Located 30 miles north of Chicago and housed in a 157,000-sq.-ft. facility, Battle Stations 21 takes the concept of a training simulator to a whole other level. Previously, recruits were put through their paces on low-tech simulations; once they enter "Pier 8" on Battle Stations 21's southern exterior, they begin a 12-hour period of intensive skills testing aboard the USS Trayer, a 210' replica of a guided-missile destroyer that floats in a seawater and diesel fuel-scented moat filled with 100,000 gallons of water. The 17 tests the recruits undergo (four divisions, 88 recruits to a division, can use the facility at a time) range from routine matters to full-blown 9/11-era crises, complete with ship-shaking effects, bursts of fire, and screams from ultra-realistic "injured" dummies equipped with triggered MP3 players. The twists and outcomes are cunningly designed to outwit the multimedia-savvy recruits.
Assisting the Navy in its pursuit of absolute realism were the same talents contributing to theme parks and projects worldwide, deployed in a fascinatingly new way that makes a facility that is otherwise off-limits to civilians worth a look. Construction on Battle Stations 21, which started final testing in February, began in October 2005 after a lengthy conceptual gestation. The design team was put in place by Sheila Sheridan, senior project manager of McHugh Construction and Simulation, a division of Chicago's James McHugh Construction Co., and a veteran of three prior Great Lakes installations (and Chicago's Goodman Theatre and Notebaert Nature Museum, among others).
"This project was incredibly hard to coordinate because we had 14 different design companies from nine different states, from California to New Jersey, Oregon to Florida. We used all methods of communication from VTC conferences to teleconferences, ftp sites, and face-to-face meetings in a central location," Sheridan recalls. "The biggest challenge was that we had to design a building around a story based on specific training objectives. Any time we made changes to that design, we needed to ensure the training objectives were maintained, the timing was consistent, and that we did not change the storyline."
There was also, she says, a significant language gap at first. "We had the entertainment, construction, training management, Navy Engineering, and Navy Training industries, each of which had a different name for the same thing. NAVAIR, for example, used the acronym CDRLs, the same type of document in the construction world that would be called a 'specification.'" Once communication was bridged, all went smoothly.
Translating designs into destroyers took its own course. Tim Oien, partner at Morton Grove, IL-based Scenic View Inc., which provided the set fabrication design and services on the project, describes how he was approached:
Q: Hey, Tim, umm, I want you to build a ship in a bottle, can you do that?
A: Sure we can. How big is the bottle?
Q: Uh, well, it's not really in a bottle. It's in a building.
A: Well, that is even better! Now when do you want it?
Q: And there's just one more thing: Can you put the ship in an ocean setting next to a pier with about 100 themed rooms with fully detailed props, graphics, consoles, buttons that light up, and a couple thousand linear feet of hallways that have to look like you're in a ship?
A: Sure, why not!
Los Angeles-based art director Rick Bluhm was among the first to catch the can-do spirit. "The Navy bent over backward to provide the team with information necessary to help us create this environment," Bluhm says. "It's no easy task to learn the nautical language and the Navy language, with its endless acronyms that rival those found in the entertainment world. And they made it possible for me to be aboard five different destroyers out of three different ports to continue my research, always with red-carpet treatment."
Bluhm concentrated on designing a convincing ship façade. "The Navy wanted a replica of an Arleigh Burke-Class Guided-Missile Destroyer (DDG). These ships are roughly 500' long and 200' high from the water. Our facility, which had already been mostly locked in, only allowed for 200' in length, and the ceiling trusses were at 50'. My initial research began by ordering and assembling a hobby plastic model of the Arleigh Burke. I also ordered the original Bath Ironworks plans and elevations through the Navy. The Navy then took a key group of us underway on a DDG out of San Diego where we were allowed to photograph and videotape anything we needed for future reference."
The designer decided to "get the full sense of the ship, rather than trying to do just a portion. So I designed a half-scale ship, leaving off the fantail [rear] since it wouldn't be visible from the revealing POV anyway. The 5" gun on the forecastle was done at ¾" scale so that it would feel appropriate when standing next to it. Doors, lifelines, and line-handling fittings obviously needed to be full scale for training evaluation. Above eye level, proportions were foreshortened and scaled down so that we could fit in enough of the mast before we hit the ceiling. I selected only the iconic items from the ship's architecture — just enough to give it realism, including the basic weapons systems and rotating antennas."
The Trayer, Bluhm says, was modeled in Google's 3D SketchUp, "which helped us to massage the facility — which was standard construction — to fit within the radar-deflecting angled ship skin. By turning on and off layers, we could easily spot the conflicts. It also allowed us to easily generate the plans and sections necessary for Scenic View to fabricate the compound curves and angles of the hull and superstructure, and to show the Navy exactly what we were going to provide."
"The ship façade comprised a couple miles of square tube and angle steel precisely cut, shaped, and formed to create a complete, customized jack system that attached onto the main structure provided by the general contractor," adds Oien. "Then there were dozens of custom-fabricated, carefully dinged-up-bent-faux painted-decorative Dibond aluminum panels attached onto this framework that would make up the main body of the ship, complete with faux welds and painted water aging applied for realism. There were countless numbers of carefully chosen design elements fabricated that were then attached onto the decorative cladding."
To provide a lived-in look, the Trayer is dressed with items salvaged from decommissioned destroyers at the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard. Some of these pieces were replicated via molding and casting for placement throughout the passageways. The various rooms aboard, including the command center, the bridge, and the armory, are themed for maximum verisimilitude. Bob Weis, president of Orlando- and Los Angeles-based Bob Weis Design Island Associates, and his team took charge of the art direction, media design and media production, and devised the scenario, in part from gripping interviews conducted with battle-tested Navy veterans. "You cannot hear these stories and feel the dedication of these people who stepped up, without respecting the institution and wanting to do all you can to help," Weis says.
The 12 hours recruits spend in this fully immersive environment are drama-packed, to say the least. Once the stores are loaded and the lines cast off from the themed pier area, it's all aboard the ship, where, Bluhm says, "the scenery façades, lighting, and soundscape change to become the destination port. Recruits man the watches — bridge, lookout, security, central control, and engineering, among others — each with its own interactivity, soundscape, and projection. They reach the port, trade supplies, and get underway again. While returning, they are hit by terrorist missiles (enhanced by bass shakers in the floor) and 'man their battle stations' to fight actual fire, secure flooding compartments, and egress through smoke-filled passageways and find wounded among fatalities." Draper, UT-based GlobalSim keeps the recruits on the clock via its fully automated Training Management System, which, as a session is in progress, interfaces with wireless PDAs held by training facilitators as the scenario unfolds. "The Navy has been doing all of this manually — with the aid of clipboard, pen, and paper — and it was fun watching them adapt to the high-tech methods," Bluhm says.
The lighting, provided by Lake Oswego, OR-based Fabian Yeager Design, deliberately returns Battle Stations 21 to a low-tech, institutional feeling. "My direction was that we use only practical lights on pier light poles and façades, and on the ship to enhance the realism instead of making it theatrical," Bluhm says. Yeager agrees, adding, "Some fixtures ended up as actual Navy-spec fixtures, especially where the recruits were close enough to see or touch them. Others were fairly generic. Associate designer Mark Andrew goosed the façade of the ship with a dozen PAR landscape fixtures to highlight details on the façade and light walkways. He focused several of the pole lights across the pier, from one end to the other, to be "glare" sources, which helped block out the facility walls at each end. Several lights were used in this way on the ship's façade to help hide where the ship ended and the walls began. "There was always this tough balance of providing enough light for the recruits to do their work, but keeping it dark and controlled enough to maintain the illusion that we were not in a building," Andrew says.
One or two illumination illusions deviated from real life, but purposefully so. "I took liberty with what the actual lighting condition would be onboard a ship under attack," Bluhm says. "In real time, a significant portion of the lights would probably go to battery emergency lighting and ultimately be restored, possibly long after the emergency lights were drained. We have the lights surging (unrealistically) and switching back and forth, with occasional brief blackouts, as if a crew was working to restore power, which continually succumbs to further damage. It provides a sense of duress, as recruits travel between compartments to battle fires and flooding."
Associate designer and programmer Henry Sume worked out the "simple and straightforward, yet vast," system architecture. "Though the training scenario runs on a strict timeline, each individual component needed to be able to start and stop independently," Yeager says. "With over 50 individual rooms and connecting passageways that needed to be independently and asynchronously controlled, we looked to Henry's recommendation of the MA Lighting grandMA Replay Unit. When the facility goes into certain training modes, we are literally running hundreds of cue stacks, performing strobe hits, flickers, and fire and arcing effects. A grandMA Light was provided for the programming period and moved around the facility as required."
The grandMA controls all the show lighting within the facility, Yeager says. "It runs the ETC dimmers, Color Kinetics Color Blast 12s, and Birket Strobe-Briks. The grandMA takes its cues as MIDI show control hits from the AVLS [Audio/Video Lighting System]. In this way, we have programmed what look or effect is happening, but when it happens is up to others. This greatly reduced time in rehearsals, as show control was able to move lighting, sound, and video around on the timeline as needed without having to wait on us to make changes. We had Doug Fleenor Design create some custom hardware for us, principally a DMX-driven solid-state relay that the grandMA turns on and off every second as a 'heartbeat' that is monitored by the OSS [Overall System Supervisor] System. If anything happens to the console, the heartbeat stops, and the OSS system uses a modified remote A/B switch to cut off DMX going out to the dimmers. The dimmer racks, on loss of DMX, play back a preset that provides us with life-safety lighting in the trainer spaces."
The lighting system is monitored by the OSS system, which was installed by Monrovia, CA-based Advanced Entertainment Technology, whose president, project manager David MacMurtry, explains that the system "handles the overall system control as well as the life safety monitoring and all of the atmospheric and mechanical special effects including smoke, scent, and water effects. It interfaces with the Training Management System [TMS] provided by GlobalSim and the AVLS provided by El Segundo, CA-based Edwards Technologies. The TMS, when commanded by the facilitators using the wireless Hand Held Evaluation Tools [HHET], sends cue information to the OSS, and the OSS sends that cue information to start the various scenarios. This is a fairly involved process because there are multiple rooms all operating at the same time but not necessarily all starting or ending at the same moment, as each facilitator handles the stopping and starting of each scenario based on his recruits being in place at the correct time. This was a big change for us coming from the theme park world, where everything is automated and timed to happen at exactly the same time and same way for every single guest."
The audio and video took the company into "uncharted seas — or wavelengths," says president and CEO Brian Edwards, given the requirement for a live and not an automated scenario. "We were given a set of renderings and a terrific narrative that needed to be translated into audio, video, and interactive experiences that would simulate a real onboard ship environment," he says. "Additionally, every room and training scenario runs independently of the others, and therefore more multiple combinations of events and timelines can take place. Also, because we are simulating an actual ship, we needed to create an audio environment that 'sold' the concept. This included many different point sources and triggered effects. Technically speaking, the challenge was in the integration and commissioning of the various components. We really pushed the limits on most of the source equipment (hard drive-based audio and video players) and ran into the proverbial 'things you do not know, you do not know.' The road blocks we encountered were solved one by one; some took days, some took hours, but, in honesty, it was rough seas that took all our years of experience to smooth out the waters."
The results have been gratifying. "We have all been extremely moved by the reactions from retired Navy personnel who tell us that the level of realism is excellent — so excellent that many of them were a bit shaken up after going through Battle Stations 21," MacMurtry reports. All this know-how could easily be applied to 24: The Ride, if the TV show ever comes to a theme park. But there is another crucial difference between a theme park project and Battle Stations 21. A ride deposits you into a gift shop, whereas recruits who pass their tests of fire emerge with something more profound — the title of sailor. Each session ends with a "capping ceremony," a patriotic, theatrically flavored celebration, where recruits who have succeeded receive their Navy ballcaps. "It is the first time in my career that I have worked on a project whose end result is not to generate ticket sales or advertising revenue. It is about saving lives. That is truly rewarding," says Bluhm, echoing the sentiments of his design shipmates. "Many of today's recruits are leaving boot camp at Recruit Training Command and immediately sent overseas into harm's way without ever having been on an actual ship. If we can make them feel as though they have been on a ship — and performed the tasks they were trained for while under the duress of a mission under attack — then we will have done our job."

I think its worse than when I lost by .10 point
Packers fans. I feel bad for you guys.
Seahawk fans...... I am going to LOL when you guys are talking sht on this site before our upcoming game. "2-1 WOOT WE ARE PLAYOFF BOUND!!!" Not.
And here I am watching Russell Wilson on ESPN feeling all good of himself. Hah.....Seems like a good kid.

Research has shown that cancer patients benefit from exercise during treatment because it improves immune system function and helps decrease feelings such as fatigue and nausea.
Many hospital-based fitness programs are just supervised group exercise, with oncology, cardiac, diabetes and other patients combined into joint sessions. Good Shepherd Hospital is a leader in recognizing that cancer patients' needs and concerns are different and merit individual attention.
The Fitness Center at Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital has three certified cancer exercise specialists who work one-on-one with cancer patients in fitness programs tailored to their needs and abilities and at hours that suit their schedules.
The instructors work closely with physicians to develop and monitor exercise plans that are beneficial before, during and after treatment. A family member or friend can accompany each patient at no charge, performing the same exercises and offering additional support in both coached and independent workouts.
For more information or to enroll in the Good Shepherd Hospital oncology fitness program, call Danielle Devine at 847.620.4554.

Mariners Spring Training Update – Day 21
Tuesday, March 5, 2013 / 27 Days 'til Opening Night (April 1 at Oakland) / 34 Days 'til Opening Night in Seattle (April 8 vs. Houston)
(Mostly) Off Day
Quiet day on the blog front, as a quiet day at Spring Training unfolds. For most of the Major League team and staff, Tuesday is an off day, the first day off since the first week of February. The Mariners training staff was in at 7:00, and five players needing treatment arrived at about the same time. They plan to be done and out of here by 10:00 am. In addition Stefan Romero was in the weight room doing his daily work out this morning, and it wouldn't surprise if other players come through and work out, as well.
Not Quite Off Today
Manager Eric Wedge and Pitching Coach Carl Willis were both in Wedge's office early this morning. The two never get a true off day, but at least today will be shorter than usual. Carl and Eric were discussing the pitching staff, and mapping out pitching plans for the upcoming week. While we are off today, we play two games (split squad) on Thursday (at the Royals and at the A's) so while some pitchers might be pushed back a day, no one is being skipped.
Totally On Today
Minor league pitchers and catchers hit the field today for their first day of workouts. Sixty-plus players are here today, getting a few days headstart before the balance of the position players report early next week.
One More Off Day Note
Probably seems like we're fixated on the off-day, but off days are big deal down here. Usually you get just one off day a spring, but with the World Baseball Classic being played this year, camps opened several days earlier than usual. Bad news: Longer spring training. Good news: more off days. Seattle has three off days scheduled; today, March 11 and March 20, as well as a travel day March 29 before playing an exhibition game in Salt Lake to close out the spring.
70 degrees and clear this morning, on its way to a mid-80s day.

The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is trying to blow out the rest of the year by promoting the hell out of its upcoming pay-per-view (PPV) events. The upcoming cards are arguably the best string of events in the promotion's history and its best chance at closing ending a solid year on the highest of highs.
The final PPV of the year, UFC 168, features a rematch between current UFC Middleweight champion, Chris Weidman, and former champ, Anderson Silva, in the main event. They fought Fourth of July weekend at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada at UFC 162.
To help get the word out and make it the biggest event ever, Weidman and Silva have hit the road on what has been dubbed a 'world tour'. The latest stop saw them workout for the public in Miami, Florida. The Miami crowd was clearly there to support Silva, who got a raucous reception.
Weidman, being the New Yorker, received a smattering of applause, even though he worked out with Udonis Haslem of the Miami Heat. What does that tell us? Miami fans are really the worst in sports.

• … And the answer is a resounding "Yes." André Leon Talley confirms he is indeed leaving America's Next Top Model. "I had a fabulous time. It was a mutual agreement. There is no unhappiness, at all," he says. Excuse me while I put on my ALT approved mourning robe. (Page Six)
• Here's a look at the hipster-tastic preview video for Balmain's diffusion line, Pierre Balmain. Peep the Gandalf beards on Abbey Lee Kershaw's bandmates. Not at all the business! They're probably what she's running from through most of the clip! The line will make its runway debut in Paris this Sunday. Get excited for t-shirts starting at $174. Hey, at least they won't have coffee spilled all over them? (The Cut)
• It is the time of reckoning: Kanye West's womenswear line is set to debut during Paris Fashion Week on October 1st. Rolling Stone gives us some juicy details on what the fashionisto may deliver. Look out for "inventive knitwear," "colorblocking," and a hefty price tag. Grazia reports the pieces will be "extraordinarily expensive; some of it is virtually unproduceable." Color me unsurprised. With this talk of hefty price tags and relative unwearability (in the tradition of Lady Gaga, I'm assuming), I expect this collection to be the opposite of underwhelming. Yeezy better bring it! (Rolling Stone)
• Our girl Fatima Siad just keeps getting work! Here she is walking in Dries Van Noten. Yes! A real ANTM reject walking in a high fashion show. Somewhere, Mama Tyra's ever-smizing eyes are brimming with tears of joy. (The Cut)
• If you didn't see it yet, here's a more extensive sneak peek of the Versace x H&M collection in Vogue Russia, of all magazines. Get excited, and ready to possibly sleep on the sidewalk outside the store November 17th. (nitro:licious)
• Some of ya'll had that Polaner All-Fruit moment after seeing Nicki Minaj sitting next to Anna Wintour at the Carolina Herrera show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. It turns out the whole thing was orchestrated by Anna herself! The New York Daily News Reports: "The singer, who performed last weekend at the iHeart Radio Music Festival in Las Vegas, explained that Wintour personally invited her to the Herrera show and later sent Minaj an inscribed photo of the two watching the fashion promenade. "We match!" wrote Wintour, apparently referring to the fact they'd both worn patterned attire." So there you have it! Clearly the editrix is a fan of the Harajuku Barbie's off-beat sense of style. Minaj and Wintour. Who'da thunk? (NYDN)

yezzy will bring it I already know
Yes! Yeezy better bring it. I'm mad at Tyra for that pic with ALT though. It's funny because I never realized Anna & Nicki had on similar colors until now of course. Craziness!
So we have to all look like idiots to get some type of acclaim from Ms Wintour. SMFH . Im Out.
I already put in for a day off on 11/17, this is one collection I do not mind standing outside (or having someone stand outside for me while I'm in my car) for. My adrenaline is already pumping!!
love the Anna/Nicki(pun intended from Bottoms Up)story.
H&M will be the death of my finances lol!
The H&M collection by Versace looks really good.

call me silly, but what is the point of launching an "unwearable" clothing line? why is this good? unwearable and outrageously expensive means it won't be sold, which means it's just a huge waste of time and money. It seems like he's just doing this show just to do it, he doesn't seem very serious about being a designer.
oh and I figured Anna invited Nicki. I honestly can't see any designers inviting Nicki to sit front row, especially not Herrera.

According to the Dayton Daily News writer and MMAJunkie founder Dann Stupp, Rich Franklin has decided that he will stay at Light Heavyweight instead of moving between the two weight classes or potentially dropping back down to Middleweight:
Over the past half year, Franklin has been hesitant to call the move to 205 a long-term solution. But after spending the past two weeks training with Anderson Silva in Los Angeles and building something of an alliance, Franklin admits his middleweight days are probably behind him.
"I'll say this much," Franklin said. "With training with Anderson out here in L.A. and him being the champ at 185, it really makes me feel like I don't have a place at 185 pounds anymore.
"I don't see myself going to back to 185."
I think is a good move for Rich Franklin's future in MMA. Franklin has proven to be one of the best Middleweights in the world, but Anderson Silva has been the knife in his back when it comes to being relevant in the title picture at 185 pounds.
With Franklin's recent performances against Dan Henderson and Matt Hamill, Franklin has the build to be able to perform at 205 lbs., but he also has the skills to be a very formidable opponent for anyone in the division. His bout with Henderson, although a losing performance, was thought to be a very close bout against a top wrestler in the sport while his matchup with Hamill proved that he can at least be effective against lower and mid-echelon talent within the division.
Add in the fact that Franklin has some good reach, solid power, and an overall well-rounded MMA skillset that will see an added strength bonus with the weight increase, he could definitely make himself a home near the top of the division if he can defeat Wanderlei Silva at UFC 99. At 34 years of age, however, many fans are skeptical as to how many years Franklin can remain relevant. Wanderlei should prove to be much more than just a single fight, but as a proving ground to whether Franklin can actually hang in the Light Heavyweight division.

He sits in a big chair in Washington D.C. He stands in front of the Peoria County Courthouse. And soon, he could also make a stand in Metamora.
The Woodford County Historical Society has more than half the money needed to get a bronze Abraham Lincoln statue at the Metamora Courthouse. President Lincoln practiced law at the state-historic site in the 1850s.
The President of MTCO donated 20-thousand dollars Saturday for the life-sized statue. The group still needs 47-thousand dollars and is offering a smaller-replica of the statue to the first person who donates 5-thousand dollars.
The goal is to get the statue built by the summer of 2009 or what would have been Lincoln's 200th birthday.

Scivation Solution Review
What You Should Know
Click Here To See Our Highest Rated Review
Scivation is a strong company with quite a few popular bodybuilding supplements. We are not thrilled with the presentation of some supplements, but Scivation does a good job with Solution 5. This is a meal replacement supplement, designed to be taken twice a day, particularly after working out. The formula does not contain simple carbohydrates like some protein shakes and antioxidants are added to support muscle health. We love the fact that digestive enzymes are available to help break down protein faster.
With 183 calories per serving, the dieter can use the formula as a meal replacement shake, but it is important to take a multivitamin every day. It is probably best for the dieter to replace only one meal per day with this formula due to the lack of vitamin profile.
List of Ingredients
Solution 5 Protein Blend: (ProCream – A Unique Whey Protein / High-Phospholipid Complex, Whey Protein Isolate, Whey Protein Concentrate, PEA Protein Complex), Oat Fiber, Natural and Artificial Flavors, Sunflower Oil Powder, Cocoa, Canola Oil Powder, Medium Chain Triglycerides Powder.
PolyOrphac Blend: Grape Skin Extract, Blueberry Extract, Raspberry Powder, Cranberry Powder, Bilberry Extract, Strawberry Powder, Broccoli Cruciferous Extract, Carrot Powder and Onion Powder.
BioCor Complete Digestive Enzyme: Amylase, Protease, Protease II, Protease III, Alpha-Ga-Lactosidase, Glucoamylase, Lactase, Invertase, Acid Maltase and Peptidase, Salt, Xanthum Gum, Nonfat Dry Milk, Silicon Dioxide and Sucralose.
Product Features
There are three main components of Scivation Solution 5. The protein blend include several sources of protein, including whey and pea protein. Oat fiber is also added to the protein blend. One serving of Scivation Solution 5 supplies 21 grams of protein. Not a huge amount, but more than some protein shakes.
The PolyOrphac Blend supplies antioxidants. During intense exercise free radicals develop faster and may attack muscle. These ingredients help protect the muscle from oxidant attack.
The final blend is comprised of digestive enzymes. If the body cannot break down protein fast enough, it goes unused. These enzymes support faster processing of protein so the muscle gets all the fuel it needs to grow.
- Supplies 21 grams of protein per serving.
- Contains several forms of protein.
- Digestive enzymes help protein break down.
- Designed to be stacked with other Scivation supplements.
- Not designed for use in a weight loss diet.
- Does not contain vitamins.
- May contain too much protein for some dieters.
We like the Scivation Solution 5 meal replacement formula. We would like to have seen a complete vitamin profile, but if the bodybuilder takes a multivitamin every day, vitamin intake should not be a problem. Solution 5 is designed to be taken twice a day, but one canister contains only 30 servings. This supplement could get expensive quick.

Local businesses are bullish on .
And now there are signs to prove it.
is the latest township business to take part in the new Businesses For Schools (B4S) project by making a statement donation to the Bensalem Township School District.
And that gift -- 125 posters emblazoned with "We Support Bensalem Public Schools" -- has begun making appearances in the windows and on the walls of local businesses.
"I believe in giving back to the community," said Printmaster's owner Judy Loftus. "I do a lot of volunteering in the community. It's about giving back."
B4S began in March when Clear Channel Outdoor agreed to give the district free space on two electronic billboards, on Route 1 and I-95, to tout the district's accomplishments. The first message told motorists about students' districtwide success in state testing. The next message, this summer, will let everyone know the district is offering universal full-day kndergarten in September.
Soon after, and donated two gowns and two tuxes enabling four BHS seniors to attend prom this past Friday. , , and also joined in the inaugural Community Pride Project offering their services to help those students who had overcome significant challenges.
Earlier this month, Sport Clips extended its benevolence, providing 50 free haircut coupons to BHS.
"They went like hotcakes," said Principal Robert Anderson.
Tim Wilson, co-owner of the local Sport Clips franchise, said. "We are a local business that believes in participating in the heart of the community."Also, this month LA Fitness donated two free three-month memberships that will be awarded to a deserving student and teacher.
Some B4S business donations even come from far outside the township. Through a Facebook connection, Ajimco Construction of Elizabethtown earlier this month made the district aware of five bookcases that were being removed and discarded from a store in Lancaster. Those 5-foot-tall bookcases were just what the library at Valley Elementary School needed
Superintendent ot Schools David Baugh said the district is grateful for the burgeoning business benevolence.
"The support of the community is vital to the health of our schools. Despite tough times, our businesses are going deep for the students and we appreciate this as an investment in the future of our community," he said.
The district will soon announce an exciting project with Lowe's and is in talks with several other area businesses interested in helping Bensalem Public Schools.
Stay tuned.

It was take your daughter to work day for Alessandra Ambrosio as she toted along her adorable daughter Anja to the Winter 2012 London Fog photo shoot.
London Fog has unveiled its Winter 2012 marketing campaign featuring the supermodel and her daughter, marking the first time Alessandra and Anja have starred in a campaign together in the US. The campaign debuts in December issues of fashion and lifestyle magazines as well as online, outdoor and in-store. London Fog is available at better department stories such as Macy's and online at www.londonfog.com.
Alessandra commented about London Fog and the campaign shoot stating: "I was wearing the classic trench and she had the same color trench coat (on) and she said 'Oh! It looks like yours, Mom!' She just loved it. We both have fun when we dress alike."
When asked about having Anja on set, Ambrosio gushed, "Having my daughter steal the spotlight is pretty funny and I just love it! I'm so proud of her. She had a great time on set and is going to be wearing all of the London Fog kids jackets. These are timeless pictures that we're going to have forever. We're going to see them and have that moment forever."
As for her daughter's eye on fashion? "She definitely has her own taste. In the morning she likes to pick out her own clothes. She'll definitely be a little fashionista. She has a very strong personality already."

|Bermejo named Player of the Year
On the heels of their first district championship game in many years, the accolades continue to arrive for Paulding as the Panthers' Devan Bermejo was selected as the Paulding County Progress 2010-11 Paulding County Boys Basketball Player of the Year in voting by county coaches and media members.
Bermejo led the Panthers in scoring at 9.3 points per game while dishing out 60 assists and 42 steals on the season. The maroon and white point guard also hit a team-high 24 treys on the season for Paulding. Bermejo also recorded 52 rebounds on the season.
"Devan has had an outstanding senior season for us," noted Panther head coach Shawn Brewer. "He is such a great team player and that is one of the major reasons of why we were successful. He was our leading scorer and led us in assists as well. He always had control of what we were running during the game.

Sorry in advance for the rather lame first post but seeing as though Cardinals single game tix go on sale this Friday (and there is a very enticing Cubs 4th of July Weekend road series) I was hoping for some general advice on seat locations and anything I, or other blog readers, might want to know in advance.
- Is the demand high enough that they have the VWR ala the Cubs last Friday?
- For people that have been to the new Busch Stadium, where do you like to sit and what are your recommendations for where to try and sit? (ie: does the upper deck suck? are the bleachers too removed from the atmosphere?)

ROCHESTER, N.Y. - The No. 15 Express men's soccer team was shutout 4-0 by undefeated No. 3 Monroe Community College on the road today.
The Tribunes (13-0) tallied three first half goals with 28:11, 10:22 and 7:33 remaining in the half. They added a second half goal with 23:05 remaining.
Joshua Kleinow started in goal for the Express and gave up a season-high four goals. He did, however, make some nice saves including a spectacular one in the first half where he laid out to his right to capture a cross just before a Monroe player could head it in.

Would they buy this item again? Yes
This is one of the best kept secrets on the market. The company that manufacturers this product also makes other products that are very well known in the aviation market. Although I haven't used Rejex on paint, I do use it on chrome and other areas. It provides perhaps the slickest finish I have ever experienced. I used it to seal chrome step bars for example. I could hardly keep them from wanting to slide off the table---no joke. And, so far, I have found that Rejex tends to last as long as other sealants that cost much more. Now, the manufacturer says that bugs and such won't stick---well, I haven't found that to be the case, but they do just wipe off. Bottom line: I haven't been disappointed, and I do intend to try it on paint very soon. Just apply thin. It doesn't take much. In fact, applying to much isn't going to help. You'll be wasting product without gaining additional protection. It's better to apply multiple thin coats.
Reviewed by Brian R. on 11/22/2011
Would they buy this item again? Yes
I used Rejex on my car after I used M205. I was told a little would go a long way but my pad soaked it up. My car has been in the rain for the past week and it beads very well. The shine is great and it is easy to take off. I suggest applying this product by hand. I'm not sure I would buy it again until I try applying it by hand.

Swarms of stubble-free followers swear by Raquel Souza's sugaring—a Middle Eastern practice that removes hair with a paste made from sugar, water, and lemon juice rather than wax. It's less painful because the sugar adheres only to hair, not skin. Results also last one to two weeks longer than with traditional methods. The first to offer sugaring in Atlanta, the Brazilian aesthetician also specializes in body scrubs and facials. We love her line of all-natural waxes, scrubs, lotions, and soaps.

First, YouTube accepts files with FLV, WMV, MPEG4, MOV, AVI and MPEG formats.
And, there's a limitation of file size: 100 MB.
Moreover, you should cut your video clips within 10 minutes length, or you cannot upload and share them successfully.

As your file is used to share on line, the first choice "Best quality for playback on my computer" is not so wise.

Every year we have conversations about good we are going to for the season that is before us. We have debates about if we are good enough to make the leap to win the SB. All of of us are die hard fans but when it comes to the NYJ, we all are lump into usually 1 of 2 categories: Pessimist or Optimistic.
Being pessimistic means that you are the type of person that always expect negative outcomes from our beloved team. Its nothing wrong with being pessimistic because after all these years of disappointment. It seems like accepted norm that the NYJ crash and burn every year. Pessimism is the best way to minimize the pain from the team crashing and burning for the season. If you expect the expect, nothing would come as a surprise.
Being a optimistic like myself means that every year you expect team to make that leap. You start making big predictions, trash talking and feeling like we going to win the SB even though the previous just have ended already. Whats wrong with being optimistic is that in reality, it can come off as denial. The signs could be in our face that we might not be very good in that particular year but optimist don't want to see or hear it.
Since I'm a optimist, I expect us to go on a war path to prove a point this year and shut everybody. I'm sticking to my bold predictions. I just want us to silence all the haters and so-called analysts that continue feel like we never going to accomplish anything. Do anyone realize that the "Same Ol' Jets" mantra has disappeared largely from the minds of most people. The reason it has because we are so close to putting it all together. Opposing fans and teams knows this. No matter how the Front Office drafted over the years. Overall, we have good players and coach that is shoring up his staff to make up for those deficiencies at certain positions. All it takes is one or two players to play or par with the rest of the team so we can become a complete team.
Now for the poll. Let me know which are are you!

Although nearly one million people in the U.S. die from cardiovascular disease (CVD) each year, few people recognize they are at risk until they experience a heart attack, stroke or sudden cardiac death.
Advocate Lutheran General Hospital has developed an innovative program to help patients recognize their risks and reduce the consequences of CVD. The REACH® (Risk Evaluation in Action for Cardiovascular Health) program helps improve the heart health of our patients through education, lifestyle changes and use of proper medications.
Upon admission to the hospital patients are screened for CVD risk. Their physicians are then notified so that risk-reduction therapies, including lifestyle changes and medications, can be included in the treatment plan while the patient is in the hospital.
Risk-reduction therapies are prescribed for patients experiencing:
Coordinated Cardiac CareTo ensure that the patient's care is coordinated, each of a patient's physicians receives a copy of the assessment, treatment guidelines and information about any new recommended medications. All members of a patient's treatment team, including the physicians and nurses, as well as the patient and family, will be familiar with the risk reduction recommendations.
During the hospital discharge process, a nurse completes a cardiovascular risk reduction assessment and discusses the summary with the patient. Cardiovascular disease educational materials and healthy living guidelines are also provided to the patient.

President Obama nominated Jacob "Jack" Lew as his new Treasury secretary. I couldn't find any real information about his economic views, but I am confident he will follow the well worn trail established by his predecessor, Tim Geithner, and other Neo-Keynesians that populate mainstream economics in our capitol.
This is from Wikipedia:
Jacob Joseph "Jack" Lew (born August 29, 1955) is an American politician and the 25th and current White House Chief of Staff. Lew previously served as Director of the Office of Management and Budget in the Clinton and Obama Administration, and is a member of the Democratic Party.
Born in New York City, New York, Lew is a graduate of Harvard College and Georgetown University Law Center. Lew began his career as a legislative assistant to Representative Joe Moakley and as a senior policy adviser to former House Speaker Tip O'Neil. Lew then worked as an attorney in private practice before working as a deputy in Boston's office of management and budget. In 1993, he began work for the Clinton Administration as Special Assistant to the President. In 1994 Lew served as Associate Director for Legislative Affairs and Deputy Director of the Office of Management and Budget, where he served a Director of that agency from 1998 to 2001 and from 2010 to 2012. Lew later served as the first Deputy Secretary of State for Management and Resources, from 2009 to 2010.

That should read " didn't ever buy..."October 21, 2010 at 5:10 p.m.
Did I say Pozzi did every buy anything locally? NO!
I know Pozzi, his two boys, and their wives, which by the way are very lovely ladies. Even Don's ex-wife is a wonderful woman.
How can most anyone in this community attend a CC meeting when it's held midmornings on Monday's? Everyone is out working supporting their families. Even his own family are unable to attend do to their work obligations.
However, I have been able to attend a handful of meetings over the past year. They usually last 15 to 30 minutes; typically voting without any real discussion of what's on the agenda. Janak is usually the only one who does his homework and brings information to the table, Gary starts to chime in a little nonsense, Wayne tends to see which direction the wind is blowing before he votes, and Kenny just sits there with drool coming out of his mouth. All you hear from Pozzi is "I think that department is doing an outstanding job..." Let's spend some money - all in favor say "I".
I also have made an effort in knowing about both candidates and their platform. I truly believe that Matt Ocker has the intellect, vigor, and fortitude to bring this county's budget and expenditures back to a sound state. He represents the masses.October 21, 2010 at 5:09 p.m.
My post"campaign contributions for charity " did not mention auctioned items but more to the idea of using campaign contributions in support of a charity.... The auction items were mentioned by another poster using hearsay evidence; which I discounted.
Campaign contributions are supposed to be used for advertising in one form or another... A candidate can use it for the " Goodyear blimp" or give it to a local charity....October 19, 2010 at 11:09 a.m.
mike, using campaign funds to purchase auction items is a violation of campaign laws.
justataxpayer, do you have any information to back up your statements ?October 19, 2010 at 11:01 a.m.
Lol.... Using campaign contributions for charity is now being demonized.... Politicians do this on a daily basis. Integrity is what you do when no one is looking..... Unless you can separate Judge Pozzi's heart from his wallet; it's politics of desperation.October 19, 2010 at 9:54 a.m.
I really don't see how people can make accusations without listing witnesses, time, and places.... He said, she said is not verifiable.October 19, 2010 at 9:48 a.m.
This comment was removed by the site staff for violation of the usage agreement.October 19, 2010 at 9:47 a.m.
'Mr Pozzi was reimbursed for purchases and coded the purchases as advertising.'
he made purchases at the auction and labeled those purchases as 'advertising' ?October 18, 2010 at 11:32 p.m.
are you saying he's using campaign funds to make these purchases ?
if so, im pretty sure that's against the lawOctober 18, 2010 at 10:49 p.m.
so pozzi can't make purchases at benefit auctions ?October 18, 2010 at 10:48 p.m.
So you believe Mr. Ocker is the only one that believes in supporting the community? Mr. Pozzi has done more for this community than Ocker probably ever will...but you would not no that because my guess is you have zero knowlegde about Mr. Pozzi and have never attended even a single commissioners court meeting.October 18, 2010 at 6:16 p.m.
I was talking to a neighbor of mine and he told me that a locally owned print/sign shop did Ocker's campaign signs. I suppose Ocker was trying to keep is dollars spent here with our local small business'. Maybe he's about supporting our community?October 18, 2010 at 4:55 p.m.
I think all you have to do is go down to the Elections Office and get those campaign contribution reports from them. You will be able to see all those listed who contributed. Typically it will be in the company owner's name, not the actual company name itself.October 18, 2010 at 4:46 p.m.
If you look at the paint peeling off Ockers signs it looks like $53.00 is all he spent and paid to much. The guy has no business running the county. In regards to Pozzi's contibutions you have to realize Krueger and folks like him are also citizens that care a lot about the community they live in. If they choose to donate to a person they think has the communites best interest in heart .... what would you have them do with the money? Consider what you yourself give back to this community if you give at all. If you had some to give wouldn't you give it to someone or something?October 18, 2010 at 4:27 p.m.
Zero said: "That would be the mature thing to do..."
I suspect most citizens would agree the mature thing to do would be to not accept the questionable donations. I don't think it's worth the hassle to be suspected of something even if everything's above board. What are your thoughts on the way Jeff Williams was crucified for accepting $5k from James Wayne?October 18, 2010 at 12:16 a.m.
Every time I think that Matt Ocker is learning patience and wisdom, he goes and talks to the newspaper. I was just telling someone yesterday that I won't vote for Matt now, but in ten years he might mature into someone that I would trust to run the county.
If Matt thinks Don Pozzi has committed some crime, he should say it, instead of hinting at it. And if he has a problem with a county contract he should say it, instead of hinting at it. That would be the mature thing to do, instead of spreading unsubstantiated gossip and opinion.
Sorry, Matt, but right now you aren't ready to trust to be a mature leader of our community. And there aren't any signs that you are growing up.October 18, 2010 at 12:06 a.m.
Pozzi's record shows he accepted money from the owner of businesses such as Krueger Construction, a company awarded many bids by the county. Question...what other companies that he accepted monies from were awarded many bids by the county?October 17, 2010 at 10:30 a.m.
Not saying that's a complete indication of wrongdoing or malfeasance," However, an old wise person once said "You don't bite the hand that feeds you "In other words, would these companies be willing to donate such contributions if this was not the case? Or, these companies are not in the business of not getting anything in return for their investment. Good old boy syndrome....you rub my back I'll rub your back...

The message here is pretty obvious.
What happens to the money left over, especially if the person doesn't win?October 17, 2010 at 12:08 a.m.
