It's still early in the season but for the first time in years, it's beginning to feel like there might an honest to goodness title race developing in La Liga between three teams, rather than the usual two-horse race.
This isn't exactly a new revelation based on the first eight weeks of play, but thanks to lackluster performances by both Barcelona and Atlético Madrid, Real Madrid are back within three points of the top. Barcelona were held to a scoreless draw at Osasuna as they simply couldn't find a way to score goals. Even the return of Lionel Messi in the second half wasn't enough to help the Blaugrana find a winner. Atléti were even worse in their loss against Espanyol as their offense looked completely stale and short on ideas.
Real Madrid took care of Málaga despite a heroic effort from goalkeeper Willy Caballero who did his best to help the Anchovies steal some points. Real Sociedad finally won a game again -- just their second of the season -- as they look to get their season back of track.
In the "cool story of the season" position sits Elche who, thanks to their win over Real Betis, moved all the way up to ninth in the table. Not a bad spot early in the year for one of the newly-promoted sides. Logic says they may not be able to hang around at those lofty heights, but every point they pick-up now could make life in the spring much easier.
Here's all the result from week 9 in Spain:
Real Madrid 2-0 Málaga
Valencia 1-2 Real Sociedad
Osasuna 0-0 Barcelona
Espanyol 1-0 Atlético Madrid
Granada 0-2 Getafe
Almeria 0-1 Rayo Vallecano
Real Betis 1-2 Elche
Real Valladolid 2-2 Sevilla
Celta Vigo 0-1 Levante
Athletic Bilbao 2-0 Villarreal

Blair says personal attacks on his family were wrong
Tony Blair says the personal attacks on his wife and children by, in particular the Mail Group, were "unnecessary and wrong".
He told the inquiry that if powerful people in some sections of the media decide they are to go after a person and it is "full-on, full-frontal, day in, day out and that is not journalism in my view. That's an abuse of power."

ATLANTA, GA (AP): New this morning!
About a quarter of the swine flu vaccine, produced for the U.S. Public, has now expired.
That means at least 40 million doses of the vaccine, or $260 million, will be written off as trash. The outdated vaccines will be burned.
The amount is more than twice the usual leftovers and will likely set a record.
But this is not the first batch of expired vaccines.
An estimated 30 million more doses will expire later and may go unused.
If all that vaccine expires, more than 43% of the supply for the U.S. Public will have gone to waste.

By Christian Jennings - bio | email GRADY COUNTY, GA (WALB) - On Wednesday the GBI charged 41-year-old Ricky Reynolds with malice murder, felony murder, and aggravated assault for an attack that killed 48-year-old Wade Harry.
A Grady county inmate's four day battle to stay alive ended Tuesday afternoon. 48-year-old Wade Harry was taken off life support and died. The GBI continues to gather evidence in the brutal jailhouse beating that killed him.
Family members said their sadness is quickly turing to anger toward the man who killed Harry, and toward the jailers. Wade Harry's widow says her husband was in jail for a misdemeanor, and it cost him his life.
At 2:58pm, Wade Harry, Jr. died in his hospital bed. "I'm 25 years old and I have to bury my father here in a couple of days," said Wade Harry, III.
Friday night investigators say Grady County jail inmate Ricky Reynolds ambushed Harry in the jail. Guards and other inmates say Reynolds knocked Harry to the concrete, then repeatedly kicked him in the head.
Harry suffered severe brain damage and a broken neck and jaw. "I got a lot of anger for the guy that did this. And a lot of hurt toward the jail because this should not have happened," the younge Harry said.
Harry went through surgery, but it didn't save him. Tuesday, his family decided it was time to end his suffering and take him off of life support. "We had hope for him. but last night he had a couple aneurisms in his brain, and a couple of heart attacks."
The GBI interviewed all 22 inmates in Harry's pod today. Now the case is in District Attorney's hands for review. Charges against Reynolds are still pending. "Hopefully we can get justice out of this, and try to move on somehow."
Investigators say the jailers responded as quickly as they could, but Wade Harry's wife said that's not good enough. Her family plans to fight for changes at the jail.
There are no cameras in the jail where the attack happened. ©2009 WALB News. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed. Feedback

Cliffside Park woman is facing hit and run charge
ALPINE — Shan Liu, 65, of Cliffside Park was charged with five motor vehicle summonses following an alleged hit and run on Jan. 9 at 4 p.m at the intersection of Route 9W and Alpine Approach Road, police said.
Liu was traveling in the westbound lane of Alpine Approach Road when she allegedly crossed over into the eastbound lane, and turned left as she reached the intersection, now traveling south in the northbound lane of 9W, where she hit a blue 2007 Honda Civic driven by Keisuke Ikuma, 48, of Norwood.
Officer Matthew Kent handled the incident, Capt. Michael LaViola said.
After Liu, driving a 2011 Blue Lexis, struck the car, she continued south on 9W, a fact which was confirmed by Ikuma and a witness passing by who stopped. Neither of the two individuals was hurt, police said.
Each car had approximately a couple thousand dollars worth of damage, LaViola said. Police were able to get the plates on Liu's vehicle, and on Jan. 10, she responded to Alpine Police Headquarters with her son, where she said that she was unfamiliar with the area and confused, police said.
She has a court date of Feb. 14.

The non-convertible Mk1 VW Golf was sold in the United States through the 1984 model year and the Cabriolet version well into the 1990s, which means that most of the examples you see in high-turnover wrecking yards nowadays are the soft-top variety. I have a friend who is trying to get a long-idle GTI project into streetworthy condition, and so I've been keeping my eyes open for a 3-door hatch Mk1 Rabbit with black interior for him. After six months of spotting Cabrios and the occasional hooptied-out 5-door, I found this '79 in a Denver self-serve yard. (Read More…)
Tag: Volkswagen Rabbit
You don't need a good reason to visit the Mecca of Colorado wrecking yards on the Fourth of July, but we had one: I was tagging along on a mission to grab a couple of dead Rabbits that could be turned into cash at Denver's ever-ravenous Crusher/shredder. Here's how the scrap-metal food chain that (mostly) ends in a Chinese foundry gets its roughage. (Read More…)
According to VWVortex, 1,461 Etienne Aigner Edition 1991 Golf Cabrios were sold in North America. I found one in a Northern California junkyard last year, and now here's another. You'd think such an exclusive, one-year-only Golf would have legions of collectors driving the values well above scrap price, but the junkyard evidence shows otherwise. (Read More…)
The pickup-truck version of the Volkswagen Rabbit might seem like a terrible idea nowadays, but these things actually turned out to be pretty useful in the real world. You couldn't haul 1,500 pounds of hog entrails in one, but you couldn't do that in a Luv, Courier, or 620 either. (Read More…)

Facebook often flaunts the vast stores of data it has on its users — last week's announcement of Graph Search is only the latest example — but some of the information posted onto the site is undoubtedly a bit darker than relationship statuses and tastes in music. The social network offers a record of its users' thoughts, and suicide researchers believe that analyzing the Facebook interactions of people who cut their own lives short could help them better identify warning signs. Facebook is now giving some of that data to independent researchers through a partnership with suicide prevention non-profit SAVE.
Researchers no longer have to rely on memories from friends and family, but is Facebook going too far?
To start, researchers will study data from "at least 20" from an unspecified Minnesota county who have committed suicide. While organizations like SAVE and others have long focused on identifying behavior that warns that a person is considering suicide, SAVE executive director Dan Reidenberg told Bloomberg in an interview that the new research could surface new trends by looking at factors like the length between posts or the sort of language used in updates. In the past, researchers have relied on obtaining accounts from family members and friends to identify warning signs.
This isn't the first time Facebook has worked on this issue. Back in 2010, the social network partnered with the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline to let friends flag posts that were suicidal in nature. The flag would immediately send an email to the user who posted the comment urging them to call the hotline. Facebook's work with SAVE is different, however, and it raises some (familiar) concerns that the social network isn't respecting its users' privacy. It's not clear if Facebook intends to release more data to SAVE in the future, or if the company worked together with the victims' families to obtain permission. The partnership comes a couple of weeks after Reddit co-founder Aaron Swartz died at age 26.

Disclaimer: These plates are actually for sale, but because of the way I handle orders on them I have to list them on Ponoko in this way. All of my other templates are made to order, but I have to do custom plates in batches, to keep costs down.
After many rounds of custom guitar plate orders, Paul and Megan at Paul Rhoney Guitars have graciously allowed me to take over the ordering of custom laser cut control plates. I do control plate orders for my own guitar company a couple of times a year, so I have the capability to add customer's plates to the order to fill up the extra space and help out everyone in need of custom plates.
I'll continue to sell Paul's plate designs, as well as new ones that pop into my head that I think are useful and cool. And of course I can accommodate your requests and ideas as well. I'll also try to maintain an inventory of popular plate designs, such as the Bass VI (Bass Roku) plates that work with the Bass Roku templates available through this showroom. Johnny Marr and Kurt Cobain Jaguar plates also seem to be popular, so I'll try to keep them in stock as well.
The plates are made from 2mm thick laser cut stainless steel, and are buffed and polished to a reflective finish. In person they closely resemble chrome, and match up well with both chrome and nickel hardware.
Cost per plate is $45 for the continental US, and $50 for international orders. The price of shipping is included. If you are in need of a plate bigger than around the size of a Jaguar tremolo, the cost will go up a bit. I can also do more elaborate custom designs for a reasonable fee.
So how do you get them? Getting stainless steel laser cut isn't cheap, so I set up a waiting list for people interested in a plate or plates. I have to be able to fill up a ~31" x ~15" sheet of stainless steel with the plate designs before I place the order. So you email me letting me know what plate(s) you want, and I put you down on the list. Once I have enough people on the list, I'll take payment through PayPal from everyone and set up the order through Ponoko. Once I receive the plates from them, I countersink the appropriate holes and get them buffed/polished. I then ship the plates off to everyone.
Once I have an inventory of plates available, I'll update this page periodically to show the inventory of plates that I have on hand. People can order in stock plates by emailing me and I will set up an invoice through PayPal.
If you'd like to see an example of what can be made, this image demonstrates some popular designs made in the past.
Of course, we can also make pretty much anything that you would want. I can work off of drawings or an idea, the only limits are really your imagination.
If you want to get on the waiting list, or have any questions, feel free to contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com

Champaign, IL (Sports Network) - Stephen Houston ran for two touchdowns and had another one receiving, as the Indiana Hoosiers outlasted Illinois, 31-17, in a Big Ten Conference clash at Memorial Stadium.
Nate Sudfeld came off the bench to throw for 107 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 10-of-15 passing, helping the Hoosiers (3-5, 1-3 Big Ten) snap an 11-game conference losing streak that dated back to 2010.
The Fighting Illini (2-6, 0-4) have now lost five in a row, despite a career- high 124 rushing yards from Donovonn Young. Nathan Scheelhaase threw for a touchdown and ran for another in the loss.
Illinois struck first, as Scheelhaase polished off a 73-yard drive with a two-yard touchdown pass to Eddie Viliunas at the 9:49 mark of the first quarter.
IU tied the score on a two-yard TD plunge by Houston with 6:49 to play in the opening frame, capping a nine-play, 75-yard drive.
Illinois regained the lead early in the second quarter when Scheelhaase scored on a five-yard scamper.
However, IU closed out the first half with two unanswered touchdowns. The first came on a 10-yard pass from Sudfield to Houston, and Houston later scored his third TD of the day on a seven-yard run at the 4:42 mark of the second quarter.
The Hoosiers extended their lead to 24-14 on Mitch Ewald's 28-yard field goal, which was set up by a fumble recovery deep in Illinois territory.
Illinois answered with a 15-play drive that took five and a half minutes off the clock, but the Illini had to settle for three points as Taylor Zalewski kicked a 20-yard field goal.
IU put the game away with an insurance TD at the 5:48 mark of the fourth quarter, as Sudfeld tossed a 17-yard scoring strike to Shane Wynn to make it a 31-17 game.
The Hoosiers won despite converting only 1-of-13 third downs and being out- gained, 372-292.

Americans continue to place a high value on homeownership, but qualifying for a mortgage and saving up for a down payment in an economy that won't produce jobs keeps many uncertain.
The results of the Hanley Wood's Housing 360 Survey say 89 percent of owners and 59 percent of renters feel that homeownership is important to the American family while 87 percent of owners and 73 percent of renters feel homeownership is an economic cornerstone.
Indeed, housing, household operations, insurance, fuels and utilities, water, sewage and trash services and furnishings, among other expenditures, account for about 40 percent of the Consumer Price Index, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Approximately one in three renters and about one in five existing homeowners believe now is a good time to buy a home or to plan on buying in the next two years, according to the survey.
The survey was administered to homeowners and renters electronically from a country-wide sample of adults 20 years of age and older in June to early July 2011 resulting in 3,005 completed surveys, including 1,954 homeowners and 1,051 renters.
"We thought people would be soured after watching home values fall but instead we found the typical American still places high value on homeownership," said Frank Anton, CEO of Hanley Wood a media company and data research outfit serving the housing and construction industries.
"We found this holds across all demographic groups and across the country, even in hard-hit places like Nevada and Arizona where there have been 50 percent or more declines in value. The increase in the rise of rental rates in many markets is one factor driving people to consider buying," Anton added.
Survey findings indicate as many as two million potential home buying consumers are waiting for the right time to jump into the market.
Respondents said there is no great urgency to buy, due to soft economic conditions. Many are figuring out how to overcome the challenges of stiff underwriting. Despite some home prices being half what they were five years ago, it's remains a difficult to fork over enough cash for a down payment and still have enough left over to show lenders they are viable home loan candidates.
"There are obstacles in the way of home buying. The over-correction in the mortgage market is a drag on the process. We've gone from one extreme to the other and it's stalling the housing market and therefore the economy," said Kent W. Colton, president of The Colton Housing Group and senior fellow at Harvard University Joint Center for Housing Studies.

The black screen of death - it happens to most electronics. Recently my iPhone 3G started to fail. It was slow for months and right before the release of the iPhone 4S it would only work when plugged in (coincidence?). Needless to say, I needed the phone to work when it wasn't plugged in to the wall (who knew?!). I had phone envy from all those other people who had faster phones so my phone failing was the perfect opportunity to upgrade.
But what do I do with my old phone? Throw it in the trash? No. Sell it on e-bay? Nope, it doesn't really work. Put it in the recycling? No, it's not accepted. I could take it to Durham's Waste Disposal and Recycling Center on Club Blvd or wait for one of their shredding and e-waste events. (FYI: There is a shredding, e-waste, and christmas tree recycling event this Saturday 1/14/12 from 8am-2pm in the Sears parking lot at Northgate Mall. For more information about items accepted at this event or the City's recycling facilities, contact Durham One Call at (919) 560-1200 or visit the City's website at http://DurhamNC.gov/ich/op/swmd/Pages/wr_transfer.aspx.) But, I had also heard of companies that will pay you for your old phone. I decided to investigate.
Two of the most recognized companies that stood out were Apple's Recycling Program (it's part of the process when purchasing your phone from their website) and Gazelle. Both options pay you depending on the condition of your phone. That's where the problem arose - overall my phone was in good condition (no cracked screen, it had never been submerged in water, minimal scratches) and it did power-on (one of the main questions) but it only powered on when it was plugged in. Unfortunately there wasn't anywhere that I could account for that piece of information. Basically, my phone was either worth about $35 if it turned on or $0 if it didn't. I decided to continue searching.
That's when I found other websites that offered much more for my phone but they didn't seem legit. Most had complaints from previous customers who had sent in their phone only to be informed that it wasn't worth what they were initially quoted. I stayed clear from these sites.
Then I ran across e-Cycle.com. e-Cycle's main target audience seems to be corporations with a large inventory of outdated wireless technology. Their mission is to empower businesses and organizations to take a more responsible, secure and cost-effective approach to wireless recycling. The best part is that they have a set price list for what each wireless technology is worth that month - condition does not matter. In my case, my iPhone 3G was worth $70 - twice as much as the highest possible offer from Apple and Gazelle.
I was unconvinced that this was actually true so I decided to contact e-Cycle (fully expecting that they may never contact me). Within an hour an employee of e-Cycle called me, adequately answered all of my questions, and sent a follow up e-mail. I was blown away by the level of customer service and attention I received - especially since I was not a corporation and only had one phone. I packaged and sent them my phone (free shipping!).
Throughout the whole process I was kept up to date with emails stating that they received my phone, the data on my phone was successfully deleted (I had done that on my end as well), the check was written, and finally an email asking if I was fully satisfied. Wow.
Not only did e-Cycle offer the best deal but had the best customer service, is environmentally responsible (recycling obsolete equipment, disposing toxic materials in an EPA-registered facility, and salvaging valuable materials), and, if you choose, can directly donate your proceeds to the charity of your choice. Truly a great way for individuals and companies to be environmentally responsible in addition to adding money to your telecom budget or making a tax deductible donation to the charity of your choice.
I always find it encouraging to find other companies, big and small, that share some of the same social and environmental views as Urban Durham Realty. As always, I try to do my best in supporting their efforts. The next time you have a phone that needs to be recycled, I encourage you to try e-Cycle.

The weekend in New York was super-rainy and I enjoyed it so much. :-) Took a long walk on Saturday while it was wuthering down on me. Today I went to City Island for about two hours. An island which is physically not far away from Co-Op City but you seem to be in another world there. But more on that tomorrow.
I spend the rest of the weekend in front of the computer to work on some projects and on implementing a newsletter on my blog. See the nice button below the calender on the left.
From time to time I am going to send out an e-mail about new projects or major updates. Well and if you want to know how everything will go on after my time in New York you should subscribe as well. I've already got a new concept in mind... I hope it will be interesting... I guess I just can't sit down, lean back and relaxe after such a great project. New York Photoblog is fun! I enjoy it and I hope you do as well.
I combined the launch of the newsletter with a small sweepstake: If you sign up for New York Photoblog's newsletter before November 12th 2005 you have the chance to win a signed print of your choice.
One e-mail address will be dragged by November 21st 2005. I'll then get in touch with the winner and ask her/him to browse the photographs I posted on this site. The winner can choose one photograph. The choosen photograph will be send to the winner as a 8x12 inch (20x30 cm) signed digital print within two weeks.

MEMPHIS, TN (WMC-TV) - The odor along Heather Ridge Drive in Hickory Hill alone was enough to get your attention.
Tom and Debra Singleton smelled it for weeks while walking past a wooded area both to and from busy Winchester Road. But what disturbed them, beyond the disgusting aroma, was what they saw in the woods, just feet from the sidewalk: a pile of dead dogs.
The dogs, which appeared to be pit bulls, were piled like fire wood, one on top of the other, in various stages of decomposition. The "top dog" appeared to have been the most recently tossed.
"I think it's disgusting," Tom Singleton said. "And that people should not treat animals in that way.
Neighbors and others said the doggie dumping site has long been a problem. In fact, landscapers who cut the grass for the property owner said they've encountered skulls, bones, and even dog bodies stuffed inside plastic bags.
While there is no proof the animals dumped here were used in dog-fighting, it's something many suspect, including Memphis Police Director Larry Godwin.
Godwin recently announced a plan to strengthen the department's animal cruelty task force.
"It's like anytime you see an animal that's been abused. It's extremely sad," he said.Hours after Action News 5 alerted Godwin about the dogs, the pile was cleaned up. In an emailed statement, a spokesperson for the city of Memphis said, "It's technically the owner's responsibility for site clean-up, but due to the initial prospect of possible health issues, the city went ahead and did it for this particular case."Similar sites in other parts of the city have been cleaned up by Memphis Animal Services, such as when dozens of dead dogs were found dumped along Benjestown Road in Frayser.Generally, police work with the shelter to investigate cases of animal neglect, cruelty, and suspected cases of dog fighting."You know, if you can't afford to take care of puppies or dogs, then have them taken care of the humane way - not like this," Debra Singleton said.Neighbors were satisfied the city finally took action at this doggie dumping ground after Action News 5 got involved.The property owner did not want to speak on camera, but said calls to animal services had gone unreturned in the past.If you know anything about this case OR suspect dog fighting in your neighborhood, call Crime Stoppers at 901-528-CASH. Call the Mayor's Citizen Service Center at (901) 576-6500 with complaints about dead animals or other property concerns.

Personally, I haven't had this much fun since the 05-06 season. The Mavericks swanging and banging with ESPN's darling teams. I love it. It was nice as hell to see the Lakers go out in a four game sweep. Got to be one of the all time favorite highlights of Mavericks accomplishments. Watching my boys go against a fiery OKC team has a reasonable expectation for better things as well. With the series tied up at 1-1. I have no qualms that the Mavs will make the proper adjustments on defense.
The real reason I felt I had to write about perceptions of certain sports outlets. It's sickening to try and watch ESPN's take on the Mavericks. I actually keep up with the Mavericks, and I've watched how they've progressed up to the team they are now. When I hear all the gobbledygook coming from ESPN. I have to wonder about their content value. How can they be so far off? There are other sports outlets that parrot just about everything that comes from Bristol. On the other hand you find articles very professionally done. This is one I have no problems with here.
CBS Sports is pretty accurate and a tad more objective. Sports Illustrated is Ok I don't mind them as much. My favorite is Yahoo Sports they are across the board very professional with less opinionated imaginings than ESPN and their minions. Which is a shame because all the games are shown on ESPN with and all that subtle Mavericks detracted logic we're barraged with. To answer the question. For the most part . The Mavs are getting a fair shake from Sports Media as a whole. The problem is that it just so happens the sports outlet that's showing all of the WCF's games aren't one of them.

New Crawley chief executive turned down approach from Championship club
10:00am Thursday 20th December 2012 in Sport By Steve Hollis
New chief executive Richard Low has revealed he turned down a key role at a Championship club to join Crawley.
Low was unveiled as the replacement for the departing Alan Williams yesterday having resigned from his position as chief executive at League Two outfit Aldershot Town three weeks ago.
The 44-year-old, who grew up in Langley Green, was also targeted by one of Crawley's League One rivals but Low admits the challenge of building on Reds' phenomenal rise over the last two years was impossible to turn down.
Low said: "I got quite a few calls when I left Aldershot which I was surprised by because I hadn't been in football all that long. I got an offer from a Championship club which I was really interested in initially but the more I talked to Crawley the more I felt it was definitely right for me.
"The club in the Championship was already ready-made so I didn't feel I could do an awful lot there to move it forward. At Crawley I feel there is a lot I can achieve over the next four or five years which really interested me.
"Everyone knows I wasn't paid at Aldershot and I did it because it was a club where I could help build the infrastructure and it is the same at Crawley.
"I also really like Alan (Williams) and the board at Crawley so it was a no-brainer in the end. I am ambitious and want to work in the Championship but I feel I can achieve that with Crawley."

He said the shutdown also affected other businesses in town, including accommodations, restaurants, attractions and stores.
Park rangers at Gettysburg National Military Park were furloughed, but
independently contracted guides continued to provide limited tours from public access roads and private
property on and near the battlefield.
operated museums, including the Gettysburg National Military Park Museum
and Visitor Center, remained open during the shutdown.

From an editorial Wednesday in the Miami Herald:
Hugo Chavezs folksy charm and forceful personality made him an extraordinary politician. His enviable ability to win a mass following allowed him to build a powerful political machine that kept him in office from February of 1999 until his death on Tuesday. But as a national leader, he was an abject failure who plunged Venezuela into a political and economic abyss.
Dead at 58, Chavez leaves behind a country in far worse condition than it was when he became president.
Soon after coming to office, he rewrote the constitution to his liking and aggressively set out to rig elections and stifle adversaries in the legislative branch and the courts.
Unfortunately for Venezuela and for all his political skills, the president was both an incompetent executive and a worse economist.
In an energy-rich country that once knew no blackouts, electrical shortages are frequent, the result of Chavezs plundering of the countrys public oil company. In a country that once enjoyed a thriving free market, prices are controlled and food items often scarce.
In recent weeks, while Chavez was hospitalized, Venezuela was once again forced to devalue its currency, this time by one-third. This was the inevitable outcome of a series of disastrous economic decisions that included nationalizing the telephone company and other utilities, which scared off foreign investors and spurred capital flight.
For Venezuelans, the worst aspect of the Chavez years was the soaring crime rate. Venezuela has become one of the most violent countries in the world, with nearly 20,000 murders recorded in 2011 and a homicide rate that some experts say is four times greater than in the last year before Chavez took power.
The presidents death means a new election must be called soon. Under Hugo Chavez, the electoral machinery was stacked against the opposition and that will doubtless be the case again, but the United States and democracies throughout the hemisphere should insist on a fair and transparent electoral process to select the new president.
Without discarding Bolivarian principles and restoring the countrys democratic institutions, no one will be able to stop the downward spiral of Venezuela that began the day Hugo Chavez was elected president.

Last season i can recall alot of bad drops by some of these Recievers that utterly killed drives or worse prevented us from getting a TD.
via media.caller.com
Couldn't find a decent pic of Kellen Davis dropping any last year unfortunately and that looks like a tough catch anyhow but the fact's remain frustrating.
Now lets look at the drops:
Brandon Marshall - 118 REC. 11 DROPS
Matt Forte - 44 REC. 2 DROPS
Earl Bennett - 29 REC. 1 DROP
Alshon Jeffery - 24 REC. 1 DROP
Devin Hester - 23 REC. 4 DROPS
Kellen Davis - 19 REC. 6 DROPS
Kyle Adams - 4 REC. 1 DROP
Matt Spaeth - 6 REC. 1 DROP
For a total of 27 combined drops
Now the guy's that have a limited amount of receptions really killed us when they dropped the ball, i''m looking at you Kellen. Factor in the poor offensive line play and the scheme we had the picture begins to form the offense was terrible in both scheme as well as utilizing the talents of the team.
Alshon Jeffery was surprisingly very solid at catching the ball with only one drop and i'm eager to watch him take his game to the next level this season. Earl Bennett has always had great hands and if he and Jeffery can both stay healthy i find those two perfect compliments to Marshall who obviously needs help and i feel like i don't have to explain why Marshall had 11 drops.
Martellus Bennett had 55 REC. and 6 DROPS which is by far better than Kellen Davis however there's still room for improvement but in no way can i rightfully complain in comparison to the horrible hands of Davis. And besides there's always going to be drops. The focus was how useless our supporting players were like Hester and Davis along with other guys in limited opportunities who should've stepped up and made the catch, that was a huge problem with our roster last year especially taking into account the O-Line's troubles.
But with an improved O-line, healthy Alshon, Earl and newly acquired Martellus to along the likes of Forte and Marshall the sky appears to be the limit more so in the west coast scheme as opposed to the vertical passing one we attempted to use last season.
That's it, any thoughts, criticisms, and jokes are always appreciated.

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Welterweight and Lightweight veteran Marcus Davis is the latest pick up by Bellator MMA, as the 30-fight mixed martial arts (MMA) veteran has signed on for a March 21 debut with the organization.
Davis (21-9) announced the signing via his official Twitter account; however, he made no mention of the terms of the contract or a potential opponent.
"Signed to fight for Bellator March 21 Lewiston Maine." The 39-year-old wrote on Friday (Feb. 1, 2013).
"The Irish Hand Grenade" is best known for his appearance on season two of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) reality show and subsequent 14-fight stint under the UFC banner.
During his six-plus year tenure with the UFC, Davis picked up notable wins over the likes of Shonie Carter, Pete Spratt, Paul Taylor and Chris Lytle. Unfortunately, he dropped four of his final five fights in the organization and was released in January 2011.
Since parting ways with the UFC, Davis has fought five times on the regional scene, racking up four wins with the lone defeat coming by split decision.
Davis has a reputation for putting on exciting fights, as he was the recipient of five fight night bonuses during his time with the UFC.
With his 40th birthday fast approaching, it is likely Davis will remain with Bellator MMA for the final chapter of his career.
MMAmania.com will pass along the name of Davis' opponent for his Bellator MMA debut when it becomes available.

It's a timeless film that gets gayer after every viewing. Therefore, it seemed only natural that the Wizard of Oz was to become the first EVER inductee into the GT Gay Hall of Fame, which it did, in our new look November issue (out now. Go check it out - Alphabeat are in it looking snoggable, among many, many other things). Let's all celebrate by whisking up a hurricane in the kitchen – it's the recipe for the Wicked Witch Waffle.
2 cups of flour
½ teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of baking soda
2 teaspoons of baking powder
4 large eggs
½ cup of honey
1 cup of plain yogurt
1 1/3 cup of milk
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
½ gallon of vanilla frozen yogurt
Fresh strawberries, hulled, sliced and tossed
1 tablespoon of sugar
0 witches
Mix the flour, salt, and baking soda in a bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, honey and yogurt, before slowly whisking the milk into the egg mixture. Then add vanilla extract.
Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients. Pour milk mixture slowly into the centre while whisking continuously. Beat until smooth. Whisk in butter.
Cook waffles in waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions. Serve waffles warm with a scoop of frozen yogurt and a spoonful of sliced strawberries.
Sexual, no?

Where: Maple Avenue Middle School

Teens have always taken risks. Their brains are wired that way. But today's kids live in a new age of risk taking: synthetic marijuana, prescription drugs, and all kids of digital risk taking - including sexting and cyber-bullying. Join nationally-renowned speaker Mike Nerney for a thought-provoking & entertaining evening that will cover teen moods and emotions, risky and impulsive behavior, and protecting your child from alcohol & other drugs. Come find out why risk-taking is hard-wired into the teen brain, and the best ways to communicate with kids during the adolescent years. (This event was rescheduled from February 29th due to snow.)

Hello everyone!
I figured that i would give you all something nice to wake up to, and something to hopefully get you a little pumped before this Steelers game.
I'm like many of you who is completely addicted to this site. I dont post often, but i read a lot. And i'd have to say I've learned a LOT here in the past few months (joined around the time the new regime came in). So I just wanted to give something back to the community. I'm going through my last year or so of design school in KC, and have just kinda been tinkering around with this painting for the last few days, and thought that it might make a nice ArrowheadPride desktop wallpaper. I originally chose Jamaal Charles because i thought he would be fun to paint, and I think its a nice a coincidence that there's some rabid JC fans around here.
This was painted in Photoshop and I've saved this in multiple sizes for you guys, and can do a custom size if anyone wants, you just have to ask.
Also, I think it would be cool to make this a series. I'm open to suggestions for a scene/person for round II. If there's enough interest i can get a poll going.
Go Chiefs!!

Aqua Cyclone- Bringing Water and Air Together for the Ultimate Filtration
The innovative Aqua Cyclone and only one of its kind, uses air and wind to collect dirt, dust, allergens, and other debris. Aqua Cyclone then utilises the natural filtering properties of water to create a whirlpool of water, wetting and absorbing dust chamber contents, not only making more efficient use of dust chamber space, but not allowing it to be released back into your home. With Samsung Aqua Cyclone technology, you'll be cleaning more efficiently than you ever imagined.
World's First Aqua Multi Chamber For a Multi Level Filtration You Can See.
The revolutionary Aqua Multi Chamber filtration system lets you see for yourself as debris collected by the Aquatic SD94 series gets filtered not once, like conventional vacuum technology, but multiple times for an absolutely thorough clean. Aqua Cyclone provides the first level of filtration. Notice, then, as the soiled water leaves the main chamber and is filtered clean, clear, and uncontaminated, on its way to the 4 adjacent chambers—all happening right before your eyes, thanks to multi-level aqua (or water) filtration only available in the Aquatic SD94 series from Samsung.

At the age of 72, Jessica Walter has the rare distinction of being the edgiest septuagenarian on television: Actings since 1964, Walter has probably never been more famous than she is now, thanks to roles in the zeitgestian Arrested Development and the bonkers Archer. That is pretty goddamn exceptional for a woman who — 50 YEARS AGO — was in the very first episode of Flipper.
Of course, during her career, Walter has won an Emmy award, trained James Caan and Christopher Lloyd, earned a Golden Globe nomination for starring alongside Clint Eastwood (Misty and Me), and provided the voice of Fran Sinclair in Dinosaurs. She's had a pretty amazing life.
But, to answer the question posed in the headline? Just how hot was Jessica Walter back in the day? Here's your answer.

(CNN & KNOE 8 News) - It will take more than just good spelling to win this year's National Spelling Bee.
Students will now have to know the definitions of the words. For the first time in its 86-year history a vocabulary test is being added to the competition.
Spellers will take computer-based vocabulary tests in the beginning rounds. Those scores will help determine the semifinalists and the finalists. The onstage spelling rounds will still look the same.
The Scripps National Spelling Bee will take place May 28-30 in Maryland.

Talks have broken down between the union representing home support workers and Northwood Homecare Inc.
"The bargaining committee returned to the table (Thursday), hopeful that the employer would meet our members' demand for parity with other workers who have the same qualifications and do the same job" in area hospitals, Joan Jessome, president of the Nova Scotia Government & General Employees Union, said in a news release.
"Unfortunately, the employer tabled the very same offer our members rejected … on Feb. 9."
The workers, about 430 members of NSGEU Local 34, have been without a contract since March 2012. The majority of them are women.
Members will be legally able to strike as of 12:01 a.m. next Friday. The release said an emergency union meeting is being held Sunday.
A major stumbling block in the dispute is workers' parity with employees who do the same work in hospital settings.

*** Submitted by Gappy. She's chosen today to share her story not only here but on her own blog, Single Parenthood: Tales from the Frontline. It's a brave and powerful thing to do; please let her know if you identify. (I sure do -- Robin)
Up until quite recently, it never occurred to me that I was an alcoholic. I still balk at the term now - not out of any sense of denial, I know full well that I cannot drink moderately or safely - but simply because to say it seems so dramatic. It makes me think of the people I see on the benches in town on my way to work sometimes, drinking Special Brew at 9.00 in the morning. I sometimes find myself fantasising idly about joining them, about throwing all of my many balls straight up in the air and not even bothering to try to catch them again. I am drawn to it like one is to the edge of a cliff or the bank of a deep river. It's terrifying yet strangely magnetic.
They say that alcoholism is progressive, and I don't doubt it, but I cannot remember a time when I drank normally. I cannot pinpoint where I might have 'crossed the line' because I have always drunk to excess. Even as a young teenager I would always be the one passing out in unsuitable places while my friends agonised over what to do with me. From that point on my alcoholism has gone through phases. There have been periods when I have been either drunk or hungover almost all the time. I have experienced black-outs, drunk spirits in the morning, and woken up shaking with the cold sweats. I also spent about six years trying desperately to moderate with varying degrees of torturous success. It was always going to be doomed to failure eventually. True moderate drinkers just are. They don't have to try with all their mental might. These days I make the only reasonable choice left to me, which is to be sober. See? Mine's a lime and soda.
Except when it's a gin and tonic.
You see, this was supposed to be a post all about my sobriety. About how sobriety was a righteous choice that I had made. About how I was done with self sabotage and self pity. It was going to be a post that said fuck the backstory, because whether to drink or not is a simple choice to be made forever in the here and now - that said how I was never again going to repeat another pathetic story from my childhood because I alone was responsible for my actions - not some demon from my distant past. It was going to be a post about how my sobriety was rooted in the fertile soil of my own power, and about how - for me - there could be no higher power than that.
Except that last night I drank again. A group of us went out for a friend's birthday and I could not resist the peer pressure to have a drink. I could not bring myself to spill when my friends asked me why I was not having a cocktail. I attempted a feeble, 'Oh you know, I'm not really drinking at the moment...' only to have it waved away by friends who wanted to see me have a great time. Friends who I have managed to hide so much of myself from. Friends who wanted to go to a club to get drunk and dance and flirt, and who wanted me to join in. So I broke a promise to myself and I did.
And nobody died. We drank cocktails and danced and flirted. It was fun. The only person in the whole world who knew what I was risking was me. But today I feel frightened and shocked. I feel turned inside out because I thought I had being sober pretty much sewn up. I had been completely teetotalling for six months. I thought I was learning to trust myself, dammit. 'You takes your responsibility, you makes your choices' had become my personal motto, and I still wholeheartedly believe that. I did make a choice last night, but it was the choice to drink. The choice to jeopardise my good life - and by the same token, my children's good lives. Today it is unthinkable.
So now what? The fact that the night passed without incident is precisely what makes this relapse so very dangerous. How easy it is now for the devil on my shoulder to whisper seductively: "See? What's the problem? You're fine to have a few drinks every now and then. Real alcoholics drink until they pass out every time they pick up. You can control it now." I can't. I don't want to go into lurid details about my own personal rock bottoms but I know that I can't control my drinking - that I've never been able to control it. I know that I will always be an alcoholic and that the only way I can win is to not feed my body and brain with the substance to which they are addicted.
So this is what I'm going to do: I'm going to get up, dust myself off and keep going in the same sober direction. I'm going to formulate a comprehensive plan as to how I'm going to deal with the next situation in which there is social pressure to drink (if anyone's got any tips I would be most grateful) and I'm going to takes my responsibility and makes my (better) choices. In the end what else is there?
Mine's a lime and soda.

This past Monday and Tuesday, the Shir Tikvah Staff all got together for a Staff Retreat at a beautiful location near North Branch. Rabbi Latz, Rabbi Rodich, Wendy, John, Sara and I were all on hand to go over this year's agenda. Here's a brief "play by play" of our gathering.
Since Rabbi Rodich and I are Shir Tikvah "newbies," the first thing the group did was a Get-to-Know-You exercise. It was a relatively painless ice-breaker and while I won't share too many secrets, we all agreed that yes, for the film about the Life and Times of John Humleker, Bill Murray would be a GREAT John.
We had some lunch, and then onto the task at hand. First up, the Shir Tikvah Vision Statement. We broke into groups of two and discussed how we felt our positions at Shir Tikvah coincided with the Vision Statement, and why we do the things we do. It was so inspiring to hear everyone's answers and the discussion really made it clear how much everyone enjoys coming to work and truly loves this congregation.
The discussion of the Vision Statement and the why lead into talking about how we construct our weekly Staff Meetings, and how to really make the most of that hour of time we have together. Everyone came up with great ideas, particularly how important it is to be proactive rather than reactive when scheduling events or projects. We also unanimously agreed that Fleur (the Shir Tikvah office dog) should never again be a note taker for the Staff Meetings, due to her lack of thumbs.
We broke for dinner, Rabbi Latz & John made some amazing salmon on the grill. John maybe got a little too close to the grill, but was willing to sacrifice his knuckle hair for the good of the group. It was a beautiful evening complete with a little wine, a campfire, s'mores, and of course, great company.
The next morning began with an egg cook-off between Wendy and Rabbi Rodich. I won't shell out too many egg-straordinary details, but they were both egg-cellent. Following breakfast, Rabbi Rodich led us in a text study to get our brains working. After that, (now don't get jealous), we spent the next 3 hours going over the Shir Tikvah calendar, working backwards from June 2015. As dull as it may seem, it was incredibly helpful and a great way to get us all on the same page and working in the same direction.
We wrapped up early Tuesday afternoon and headed back to the metro. I think we would all agree that the Staff Retreat was a great way to bring us all together, without disruption (other than Sara freaking out at the sight of any insect, large or small), and begin the New Year with an organized, fresh start.
I will shake my hands in the air
with tears besotting ancient anguish
and the cries of parents who bury their children in graves etched into the earth by the blood of enemies we are challenged to discern but who try to take more than life and steal our hope and our faith.
The revenge I seek
is not of torment or rage or rocket launches but a sweet revenge of defiant compassion and determination to write a new story where children play in the parks of Jerusalem and the town squares of Ramallah and to rise up stronger than ever before with all those committed to a real, just, honorable future with all the fury that hope can muster and weave a blanket of compassion over the planet so strong so powerful so vibrant and holy and impenetrable there is no longer space left in the universe for anything not pregnant with courage or love.
The Shir Tikvah Israel Group has been very busy during the last week! A camel ride today, Kakadu Art Studio yesterday, and old city of Jerusalem on Saturday. Keep checking back here for more updates, or follow the Shir Tikvah Israel Trip on Facebook.
Shavuot celebrates the receiving of the Torah at Mount Sinai. In the hundreds of generations since, the stories of the Jewish people have been retold countless times.
What happens when a family story doesn't get told?
Imagine digging through the contents of your elderly relative's apartment and discovering a long-kept secret. The film "The Flat" explore the limits of friendship, the power of memory and the possibility of forgiveness.
Join the Lifelong Learning Team for Tikkun Leil Shavuot – evening of Shavuot learning, prayer, and cheesecake! Tuesday, June 3, 7pm to 9:30pm.
The evening's teaching will be led by Rabbi Melissa B. Simon, Shir Tikvah's Director of Lifelong Learning. Discussion will be chevruta-style, in small groups. All are welcome to be a part of the evening. The film viewing will begin at 7pm followed by a discussion. The evening will conclude with a brief Shavuot service. In keeping with the holiday's dairy tradition (the land flowing with milk and honey), we will feast on cheesecake!
What is Shavuot? Since Passover, we have counted the omer, marking time, to arrive at this festival holiday which, historically, celebrated the planting season and evolved to commemorate Jews' receipt of Torah at Mount Sinai. Celebrate whatever moves you this season at Shavuot.
L'shalom, friends!

Howdy NPT People!
Does anyone here have experience using the Silhouette Portrait Cutter machine? specifically with trying to use the registration marks to line up printed content to the cut plan?
Views: 67
Ah, I also experienced this one, I made hundreds pages (maybe) to get - finally the correct one, I found this failures in a forum and its cause is when the censor error in reading the registration mark
Maybe these answers could help u:
1. u should calibrate it (calibration), if okay then no problem with it
2. u should make sure that printed paper stick on the cutting mat, cause it might slightly move if don't stick enough. u can use the spray adhesive to increase the stickiness.
3. make sure that your lighting is bright enough especially in censor area and the printed page,
There's many things could distract the sensitive censor, make sure there's no other similar or black area in registration mark corner, the lighter colored paper is better than darker one
and yes, if it bump into something, this could happen too.
Hopefully this can help u :)
The machine was incorrectly reading the registration marks, and cutting the paper incorrectly; the cuts didn't line up with the printed design. It was strange because the cut pattern was skewed, the first few inches of the page matched, but further down it got more and more offset.
I think i fixed it out by using lighter colored paper (though I wish I didn't have to) and by making sure the machine was set on a table where the plastic mat didn't bump into anything as the machine moves it around. I think it was gently bumping something and slightly lifting it as it detected the marks. Maybe?
Seems to be better now. thanks for asking!
Do you have any other advice?
Hi, james
I don't have the portrait, but i have a cameo one. What kind of difficulty in it?

Miguel Cabrera pulls a little joke with Dustin Pedroia during the intros at the All-Star Game last night.
J.J. Watt stars in the new Yahoo! Fantasy Football commercial. It'll probably get a smile out of you.
If you haven't been exposed to "Prancercise" yet, you MUST look it up on youtube. Big Papi and Jose Bautista had a little fun prancercising earlier this week in New York.
