NEW YORK - The American Institute of Architects New York Chapter has publicly opposed the removing the requirement in New York City that the Commissioner of the city's Department of Buildings be a duly licensed architect or engineer. The following is a letter given as testimony given by the AIA NY executive director, Rick Bell, on May 7 to the New York City Council's Committee on Government Operations:
"The American Institute of Architects New York Chapter and its 4,200 members in New York are strongly opposed to Intro 755. The Commissioner of the Department of Buildings must be a registered architect or professional engineer. The current law is logical and necessary.
By letters, e-mails and petitions, the City Council and Mayor's Office has heard many of the reasons why the head of the agency that guarantees safety on construction sites must be trained and tested in how buildings come together, how they rise, and how they stand. The process by which an architect or engineer becomes licensed by the State of New York is arduous, arguably even harder than passing the bar exam in our state. It tests comprehensive knowledge of codes, zoning, building practices and environmental standards, to name but four of the many constituent issues that are important in neighborhoods from Co-op City to Gravesend, from Midwood to Central Harlem, from Ozone Park to East New York.
In addition to our technical training, architects, by law, are personally responsible for our work and have a fiduciary responsibility to maintain the health, safety, and welfare of the public. As licensed professionals, we bring to the task a special degree of commitment that we believe is crucial to the position of Buildings Commissioner.
The City Council has taken the lead in bringing a modern building code to the City of New York. We need an architect or engineer at the head of the department that interprets the code, and oversees building safety in all of our neighborhoods.
The City Council has taken the lead in stopping over-development in our communities, asking whether developer rapacity has led to deliberate misinterpretation of the Zoning Resolution. We need an architect or engineer at the head of the department that enforces the City's zoning, guaranteeing that political pressures and expediency do not engender neighborhood-busting mistakes.
The City Council, receiving testimony May 6th at the Housing & Buildings Committee, has taken the lead in pushing for progressive reform of Building Department operations, enforcement and communications, insisting that building practices be forcefully regulated. We need an architect or engineer at the head of the department that by its actions gives our communities appropriate scale and comfort, someone who knows about the economic and material determinants of buildings, not just how to manage a large and complicated bureaucracy.
The City Council, by local law and leadership in setting environmental priorities, has insisted that New York City attain a greener future and carbon footprint reduction by regulating building materials and construction processes. We need an architect or engineer at the head of the department that enforces these laws, and assures our children and our children's children that their future will not be greenwash rhetoric, but actually achieve through aggressive action significant change in how our buildings help, not hurt, the environment.
There are some in this building who insist that the business of New York is business; that any agency, any department, can be run like a Fortune 500 company; that good management skills are more important than mere credentials, stale tradition, or a philosophy that knowledge matters. They are half right. This is not about tradition, or a return to the bow-tied past. This is not about credentials or elitism or silly glasses. This is all about professionalism, and the knowledge needed for the person heading the Buildings Department to make the tough decisions when there is nobody else to call, nobody else to consult.
You would not want your kids treated by doctors who learned their medical skills by watching Grey's Anatomy on television; you want the real thing for your children and for our Health Commissioner. You would not want the public defenders and advocates working over at Foley Square to have learned their legal skills watching re-runs of Law & Order; you want the real thing for your constituents and for our Corporation Counsel.
You cannot want the person who oversees all aspects of zoning, site safety and the quality of construction in our City to have borrowed their word choice from management case studies at Harvard Business School or Brooklyn College; you need the real thing for your neighbors and for our Building Commissioner.
New York City needs a Buildings Commissioner who not only knows how the government operates, but how buildings stand up.

With two former nannies accusing Rob of sexual harassment, it seemed fair to ask if he'd be going with a manny in the future.
Rob Lowe and Bill Clinton are both sex addicts--maybe Rob should call Bill and ask who they got to raise their kid?
the last person who held this
position was let go with blame;
the next replacement will also
assume the same position;
I want to apply for any and all positions with him!
Who doesn't want to be harassing by him?!....He still hot!! :D
I'd be His Nanny. He is so HOT!!!!!
Once a sleezeball always a sleezeball!
Can't the Rob Lowe sockpuppets write some new material?
He is just nasty.I mean maybe their was a time he could have been fine but now HE'S NASTY>>>>>...!!!!!!!
Alot of kids are in single parent households with few advantages. Rob's kids have two parents and advantage, both boys are old enough to be baby sitters. The world would be better off if people like this never had children. Don't you listen to Dr. Laura? Don't have babies if you don't have time to raise them. I am disgusted by women who claim motherhood and pass it off to someone else. Rob Lowe has no manhood to allow that to go on. He is a slut and the lustful comments is all he is about.
The Lowes have proved they are bad parents. The court will settle the torts.
Oh ya go with a Manny... How long do you think it will take before we hear his wife leaves him for the Manny???!!!
Just the sight of Rob Lowe makes me sick. Their's something off about him.
Heard it from the grapevine, but it is the wife that out smuts Rob. No manny would have a chanch.
I'd like to hear more about what Rob showed Gibson on the computer.

LITTLE BOY SOLDIERS Lyrics - The Jam
Review The Song (1)
Its funny how you never knew what my name was,
Our only contact was a form for the election.
These days I find that I don't listen,
These days I find that we're out of touch,
These days I find that I'm too busy,
So why the attention now you want my assistance -
What have you done for me.
You've gone and got yourself in trouble,
No you want me to help you out.
These days I find that I can't be bothered,
These days I find that its all too much,
To pick up a gun and shoot a stranger,
But I've got no choice so here I come - war games.
I'm up on the hills, playing little boy soldiers,
Reconnaissance duty up at 5:30.
Shoot shoot shoot and kill the natives,
sponsored linksYou're one of us and we love you for that.
Think of honour, Queen and country,
You're a blessed son of the British Empire,
God's on our side and so is Washington.
Come out on the hills with the little boy soldiers.
Come on outside - I'll sing you a lullaby,
Or tell a tale of how goodness prevailed.
We ruled the world - we killed and robbed,
The fucking lot - but we don't feel bad.
It was done beneath the flag of democracy,
You'll believe and I do - yes I do - yes I do -
yes I do -
These days I find that I can't be bothered,
To argue with or well, what's the point?
Better to take your shots and drop down dead,
then they send you home in a pine overcoat
With a letter to your mum
Saying find enclosed one son - one medal and a note -
to say he won.

When Mint woke up she wondered what Oleander was doing. He was hours into his day when she swung her legs over the side of the bed. She moved around the kitchen while he walked through the cold wind rushing the channels between old growth and the stills that burned hidden along his route. She liked the way he smelled on those mornings. He reminded her of medicine and campfires, and she smiled when he opened the door. www.oleanderandmint.com

Mozilla warns of accidental disclosure of developer network database
08/06, 7:33pm
About 76,000 email addresses, 4,000 encrypted passwords were publicly accessible
At the beginning of the month, Mozilla issued a release on its security blog that there had been an investigation into accidental disclosure of its database for the Mozilla Developer Network (MDN). The company discovered a problem after a web developer found out that the data sanitization process it runs on the MDN database had been failing. The result was that 76,000 email addresses of account holders, as well as the "passwords of about 4,000 users" were able to be accessed publicly.

Chautauqua County, NY (WKBW) Through a series of raids, New York State Police and Border Patrol Officials seized multiple marijuana plants Thursday from the Town of Sheridan in Chautauqua County. They discovered what one trooper called a "field of pot." One-hundred and seventy six plants in total, worth a street value of over three hundred fifty thousand dollars.
"This is the time of year. We do seizures like this every year. The plants are large at this time and harvesting begins," said Trooper Rebecca Gibbons, "people in the community don't want pot fields growing in their back yard."
And this isn't even close to the first drug bust of the summer. Just a few weeks ago, a large raid in Brant brought in twenty pot plants. A few days earlier Tonawanda Police located more than a dozen plants growing near the 290. And earlier in the month Evans Police located more than three pounds of marijuana.
NYS Police said they are proud of making such a big bust. "We're excited when we do get a large amount like this off the street, before it gets onto the streets. That's our mission."
But that excitement is stemmed by the fact that no arrests have been made in this case. Now the State Police are asking for help from the public. They are asking anyone with any information into this case, or any other marijuana-related tips or information, to call State Police confidentially at 679-1521.

|Harrison in compliance with Sunshine Law, says mayor
|Written by Joe Awad
|Saturday, September 14, 2013 4:48 PM
Harrison Mayor Joel McGuire shot back Saturday, Sept. 14, asserting that Ohio Auditor David Yost's claim that Harrison is among several Buckeye cities and counties falling short of complying with the state's Public Records Act is patently false.
Yost posted a news release on his state Web site late Thursday, Sept. 12, asserting Harrison is among eight of 20 tested cities and counties that have weaknesses in their public records policies and procedures.
The release does not specify Harrison's alleged infractions, but includes a blanket statement from Yost: "It's disappointing in this day and age with all the attention on transparency that we don't do enough to make sure the people's records are accessible."
The audit, as reported by The Columbus Dispatch, shows the city has not officially designated a person or department to handle public requests for records, and that Harrison does not have an official process for tracking public records' requests.
Similar charges are leveled against Allen County, Beavercreek, Bowling Green, Crawford County, and Portsmouth.
In a written statement Saturday, McGuire responded: "Had the state auditor bothered to ask me or anyone else in city government, I would have told him that for at least the last six years the city law director and law department have had official responsibility for handling public records' requests, and keeps track of when the requests are received and met. We've met all legal requirements for record-keeping. It's disappointing, in this day and age of multiple easy methods of communication, that a state auditor would print such flagrant, false allegations when in fact the problem was that he didn't even ask us who had these duties. Dave's just got to do better."
McGuire said he does not know how the state obtained its information, nor, to his knowledge, has the city received notice from the auditor's office. In addition, he stressed Harrison posts its public record policy on the city's Web site.
The auditor's office could not be reached Saturday to determine on what the state based its findings.
After a records' request is made, the city attorney follows up with a letter confirming the request has been received and the time frame in which the city will respond, said McGuire.
"There is a third product which is the actual production of the documents requested and the signature - confirmation of the receipt - of the person who asked for it," he said.
"We have a process of what has been requested and what has been responded to. ... All they had to do was ask."
Yost revealed the audits Thursday to the Ohio Association of Broadcasters Board of Directors. He announced during Sunshine Week in March that the audits would be made.
Ohio's Public Records Act, often called the Sunshine Law, calls for prompt inspection of public records. Upon request, copies of public records must be provided within a reasonable time.

Air Security While in the Air?
Flight attendants feel wrath of fliers
Elizabeth Oglesby, a passenger from Atlanta aboard the flight, said the woman "appeared to be out of her mind. Upset. Belligerent." She said the woman hit the pilot in the chest after he threatened to handcuff her if she didn't calm down.
*According to an arrest affidavit, Eduardo Turnbull-Bolado, a Mexican citizen, requested immigration forms from a flight attendant before takeoff on a Continental Express flight between Monterrey, Mexico, and Houston. When he didn't get them after a second request, he allegedly backed a flight attendant into an emergency exit door, grabbed the attendant by the shoulder and began pushing.
The flight diverted to Corpus Christi, Texas, where police arrested Turnbull-Bolado, 58. On Thursday, a U.S. District Court jury found him guilty of assaulting and intimidating a flight attendant. He was sentenced to the time already served in jail and fined $5,000.
*Frederick Murphy, 59, of Edison, N.J., allegedly grabbed a flight attendant and kicked walls and tray tables when the crew refused to serve him more wine on a March Continental Airlines flight from Newark to Los Angeles, according to a criminal complaint filed in the incident. The plane diverted to Denver.
Murphy was indicted by a federal grand jury on a charge of interference with a flight crew, which carries a maximum 20-year sentence and $250,000 fine. He has pleaded not guilty, and no trial date has been set, says Jeff Dorschner, a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney's Office in Colorado.
*Erin Lambert, 28, of the San Francisco area, cursed and spat on flight attendants and fellow passengers, the FBI wrote in a court affidavit following her arrest in January after a United Airlines Boston-San Francisco flight.
She fought with flight attendants, made comments about a hijacking and tried to open a cabin door. Lambert pleaded guilty to assault. Her conviction might be dismissed if she stays out of trouble until returning to court next April.
*Danny Reed, 32, of Lerona, W.Va., was arrested in January in Great Falls, Mont., after groping a flight attendant, threatening a fellow passenger and attempting to open the cockpit door on a United Express flight from Denver. Prosecutors say Reed was drunk.
He pleaded guilty to assault and was sentenced to one-year probation and a $250 fine.
"The federal justice system is seeing more and more of these types of cases," says Assistant U.S. Attorney Carl Rostad in Montana.
Anecdotal evidence
The Air Transport Association, the major trade group that represents U.S airlines, says it hasn't noticed a change in passenger behavior. It says it has no evidence that passenger misconduct is worsening.
But Milwaukee-based Midwest Airlines says it has noticed a trend.
"Our customer service providers recognize the additional stress and tension of traveling today," says Vice President Mary Blundell. "Travel is not as easy and as pleasant as it used to be."
As a result, Midwest is providing flight attendants, pilots, and ticket and gate agents extra training on how to better communicate with customers, deal with their problems and diffuse their anger when things go wrong.
Frequent-flier Tim Burke, a marketing director in Littleton, Colo., says, "There is no pleasure in travel anymore, and, unfortunately, the first line of offense is the flight attendant."
He says the hassles of security screening, late and delayed flights, no food on flights and less friendly airport and airline staff "creates an explosive environment." Flight attendants "often end up being in the wrong place at the wrong time."
Russell Rayman, director of the Aerospace Medical Association, agrees. He and other professionals say conditions are ripe for more confrontations between airline workers and their customers.
Planes are flying fuller as airlines slowly regain profitability, and studies have shown that crowding in a confined space can lead to aggression. Full planes also limit airline agents' ability to rebook passengers after a cancellation or missed flight, creating more opportunities for passenger rage.
Psychologist Raymond Fowler, who just returned home to La Jolla, Calif., from Bulgaria and Jordan, can attest to that. He had to sit sideways in his middle seat because the person next to him was so large.

Hats off to Kiwi supermod-in-the-making Jessica Clarke, whose Mario Testino lensed D&G campaign (her first major), has just appeared online. Looking every bit the all-American hippie in a floral print smock and matching head-band, Clarke is pictured strolling away from a WASPy picnic alongside half-Australian model Keke Lindgard. I've always thought Jessica Clarke wouldn't have looked out of place as a folk-singing Woodstock attendee, and this D&G campaign rests my case. GO THE KIWIS!

Kim Nam Gil returns as the BAD GUYon Thu, Aug 26, 2010
Visually stunning and immersive, Bad Guy is a dark family/revenge drama tracing the story of a man bent on the destruction of one family. Kim Nam Gil, who leaped to leading-man status with a brilliant, breakout performance in the sensationally popular Queen Seon Duk, turns in another powerhouse performance as a coldly calculating revenge-seeker. Han Ga In (Dr. Kkang) and Oh Yun Soo (Jumong) co-star as the women who are reluctantly drawn to him, while Kim Jae Wook, best known for his role in Coffee Prince, gives his own breakout performance as an emotionally scarred, wealthy playboy. Shim Gun Wook (Kim Nam Gil) has an ordinary happy childhood - until one day he is told he is the bastard son of President Hong, head of the Haeshin Company, and taken away from his adoptive parents. Joining the Hong family, he is treated like a prince. When a DNA test reveals that he is not President Hong's son however, he is unceremoniously cast out of the house, and tragedy strikes his adoptive parents that same night. Adopted to the U.S., he returns twenty years later bent on revenge. The Haeshin family fall into his carefully constructed plan one by one, and only Hong Tae Sung (Kim Jae Wook) who was taken in by the Hongs as the President's real son, begins to suspect him. A further wrench in his plans appears in the form of Moon Jae In (Han Ga In), a beautiful, gold-digging art curator who at first pursues him, mistaking him for Tae Sung, and then begins to fall for him.

Over the past few years we have had a number of budget issues. I think it is time for Congress to actually create and pass a Balanced Budget Amendment. I suggest the following.
Balanced Budget Amendment
Section 1
The President shall submit a balanced budget recommendation to Congress for the next fiscal year no less than three months of the start of the next fiscal year.
Section 2
Congress must approve a balanced budget and necessary funding legislation for the next fiscal year before the end of the current fiscal year.
Section 3
The budget must be approved as specified in Article I Section 7.
Section 4
Failure to have a balanced budget and the necessary funding legislation approved by the beginning of a fiscal year shall result in the forfeiture of pay to all members of Congress, the President, and the Vice President. All other government operations shall continue using the previous budget.
Section 5
Expenditures shall include the expenses of the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches plus interest on the national debt.
Section 6
Special resolutions must be approved for expenses that exceed the proposed income. These special resolutions authorize an increase in the national debt.
Section 7
This amendment shall become effective for the third fiscal year following its ratification, year 1 being the fiscal year after ratification.

Sharjah Expo Center maps out new growth strategy
Sharjah Expo Center has begun mapping out a new aggressive strategy to promote itself as a strategic exhibition center in the region by reaching out to new markets and conceptualizing niche trade events.
New Director General of the Sharjah Expo Center, Mubarak Balaswad has set in motion a series of measures to implement the strategy, beginning with a review of the performance and achievements of Sharjah Expo Center over the past few months, with the objective all adding qualitative systems to the development of the Expo Center.
Sharjah is considered the industrial backbone of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) with 40 of the total number of industries in the Emirates based there. The UAE has no trade barriers, no restrictions on imports, no corporate taxes or income taxes, only four percent import duty and unhindered repatriation of profits. — (menareport.com)

The Lakers are currently a .500 team. Depending on expectations, they're right at where they should be. In my book, they're overachieving. That level of play is based on going ten players deep, playing with a higher level of intensity in shortened minutes. The critical position to make this all run properly is point guard.
Jordan Farmar has excelled at this point. While Steve Blake is nearly averaging ten assists per game, Jordan Farmar provides another dimension of scoring and speed when he steps onto the floor. Shooting at 40% behind the arc and averaging 4.4 assists in under 19 minutes per game, he's the perfect complement to what Steve Blake provides. Now out with a hamstring tear for four weeks, the Lakers need to consider a few options to keep the offensive flow of the team steadfast, without dramatically increasing Steve Blake's minutes.


text: UC Berkeley Receives $1 Million Grant to Fund Illegal Immigrant Scholarships Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 12 Dec 2012 post a comment A prominent foundation donated $1 million to the University of California, Berkeley to fund scholarships for illegal immigrants admitted to the school. The Evelyn and Walter Haas, Jr. Fund provided the scholarship grant that will go to "nearly 200 students who are not eligible for federal grants, government-backed loans or work-study positions." According to the foundation, the gift is the largest scholarship earmarked for illegal immigrants ever given to a U.S. university. "These motivated, hardworking and inspiring students are an asset to our state and our country," the fund's president, Ira Hirschfield, said in a statement. "Now that it's legal to do so in California, we encourage other foundations and private donors to consider providing funding to help undocumented students achieve their potential." The foundation could legally make the donation because California passed the "California Dream Act" last year, which allows "illegal immigrants to receive privately funded scholarships to attend the state's public colleges and universities after attending at least three years of high school in the state."

On sticking with BenJarvus Green-Ellis' after his late fumble
"We're fortunate to have such a great runner that rarely fumbles. Unfortunately we had a chance to put some distance between us there then the fumble was unfortunate. He's our guy and we have a lot of confidence in him."
Andy Dalton on the identity of this offense:
"I think for us we've been able to do different things. Certain games we've run the ball well and the run game has been working and other games we've had to throw it a lot. I think for us it depends on the game and what we're needing to do that's helped us win a lot of games this year."
Reggie Nelson on Vontaze Burfict's growth as a player:
"That young dude is going to be a great football player. As long as he keep handling business on and off the field, I think he'll play for a long time. His play speaks for itself. He's a good football player right now, but as long as he keeps working on his craft and learning the game, I think he'll be alright."

That way you can see them before shelling out lots of hard cash. I used to buy all my used culinary textbooks that way. Prices are up high because a lot of these titles now carry software discs too and textbooks in general are high. Those nice pictures run the prices up too. I noticed that Wiley is charging $130 for some of theirs. (And it's not going to the authors either.) Large Borders and B&N also carry some of these too. I ended up getting copies of the old edition of Friberg's huge pastry text because the new edition was coming out. Borders sold off the old edition for $10. I bought 3.

We had so much fun doing our Countdown to Kickoff series last season that we decided to do it again. If case you're new to the series, we'll do a roster preview as we count down the days until the Chicago Bears September 7th season opener against the Buffalo Bills.
Next up in the Countdown to Kickoff series is defensive tackle Nate Collins. I liked the photo up top because it shows the #98, formerly held down by Corey Wootton, but also includes Nate Collins. Collins is switching numbers in 2014, going from the #93 he wore last season to 98. Let's hope that isn't the only change for Collins. I'm sure he'd like to see a change to a healthier season in 2014.
Collins had a rough season in 2013. First, he missed the season opener as he sat out a game for violating the league's substance abuse policy and then had he season cut short with a torn ACL suffered against the Saints in Week 6. Despite the injury, the Bears saw enough of Collins to bring him back in 2014.
Collins was very disruptive in his short stint last season. Many times, I thought he looked like the best defensive lineman on the field, and that was next to former Pro Bowlers like Henry Melton and Julius Peppers. The stats don't really show up to back up the claim, although he had his best game of the season against the Saints with a +2.4 grade according to PFF.
Collins will have plenty of competition along the Bears' refurbished defensive line. He'll have a veterans Jeremiah Ratliff and Stephen Paea and a couple of rookies pushing him for playing time. The added competition should push everyone to get better. The Bears will certainly need it as they ranked dead last against the run last season.
My expectations for Collins are to start the season as the starter, but he may cede to the youngsters as the season progresses. He's a solid veteran who should provide reliable experience in the DT rotation.
Be on the lookout for our Countdown to Kickoff series as we continue to work our way to the season opener on September 7th.

With just a couple of weeks to go in the Big Ten schedule, and there are a few nice games on the schedule, although only one game has real meaning for a team. That team, Minnesota, has looked good all season long, apart from a 2-game stint against Michigan and Iowa. Now, they get a chance to prove that not only have they turned their season around, but that they are one of the better teams in the Big Ten. If they can win out, the Golden Gophers will represent the Legends division in the title game, not bad for a team that generally got pounded in B1G play last season. There's one small problem – they need to beat Wisconsin and win in East Lansing to get there. Win one of those games, and they deserve that respect they've been working towards.
Michigan State @ Northwestern
The skinny: The rapidly fading bottom dweller faces the big fish in the Legends pond.
Three things to watch for:
Some pass protection would be a good start: It's no secret that the Spartans have one of the better pass rushes in the Big Ten. It's also no secret that Northwestern have struggled to protect their quarterbacks, allowing 34 sacks so far this season. Expect to see more of athletic Kain Colter on saturday, as Trevor Siemian moves well enough in the pocket, but he may have nowhere to go.
The Running Man: The Spartans gnarly defense has been the rock they have built their season around, but running back Jeremy Langford has become the perfect complement. The hard-nosed runner gets stronger as the game progresses, and has proven to be great at finishing off teams as their defenses tire late. Expect to see plenty of Langford on Saturday as the Spartans take advantage of Northwestern's lightweight defensive unit.
Finish drives: The Wildcats will have their hands full with MSU's defense, so they need to score points when they get the chance. Northwestern are second in the nation in redzone percentage – an outstanding 97.44% – but 41% of those scores are field goals. Against the Spartans, while every point will count, but Northwestern need to get TDs to pressure MSU.
Prediction: Michigan State 23, Northwestern 10.
Michigan @ Iowa
The skinny: An interesting game between two teams playing for little more than pride.
Three things to watch for:
Controlling the line: It goes without saying that most games are won at the line of scrimmage, and this one should be no different. The problem is, Iowa's defensive line isn't a whole lot better than Michigan's offensive line. The Wolverines problems lately have been well documented, allowing 19 sacks over the last 3 games, but Iowa have only 17 on the year, with 10 coming in 2 games.
"…and on that note": The Hawkeyes were pretty good stopping the run for most of the season, including stuffing Minnesota's potent attack, but struggled the 3 weeks prior to last week against lowly Purdue. Michigan have had their struggles with the run, at least for a 2-game stint, but they have the talent to wear down the Hawkeyes feisty line, due to their lack of great depth. Definitely an x-factor worth keeping an eye on.
Rudock's chance to shine: The freshman quarterback's been in a nice situation this season, only being called upon to take the game on his shoulders a couple of times, thanks to the Iowa defense and running game. Not that he hasn't been good – he's been efficient for the most part – but he struggled against Ohio State and Wisconsin when the ground game wasn't clicking. He faces another tough defense against the run in Michigan's, but the secondary has some holes. Can he take advantage of these holes if the running game struggles again?
Prediction: Iowa 20, Michigan 17
Illinois @ Purdue
The skinny: The prestigious battle for second last in the Leaders.
Three things to watch for:
Is this Purdue's last chance?: With a trip to explosive Indiana next week, thus could be the Boilermakers (and Illinois) last chance to win a B1G game. If there's one team Purdue can beat, it's Illinois, whose defense has been one of the worst in the country. Of course, the same could be said of the Illini offense, so it's a matter of which unit can hold up under not so trying circumstances.
Battle of the quarterbacks: In one corner, we have 5th-year senior Nate Scheelhaase; in the other, we have freshman Danny Etling, who seems to be getting better despite playing on a poor team. He had his best performance last week against Penn State, and gets his chance to show he's the future against a poor defense. Scheelhaase, on the other hand, has a ton of experience and is playing for a Sunday job. Purdue's pass defense has had its moments, but can it hold out against a cagey veteran?
The field position game: Purdue's best weapon all season has been punter Cody Webster, who's done an outstanding job of forcing opponents to drive the length of the field to score. The problem is, the defense hasn't always kept up its end of the bargain. Now, facing an offensive unit that has had its fair share of problems, Webster could finally be the impact player he would be on a better team.
Prediction: Illinois 31, Purdue 21.
Wisconsin @ Minnesota
The skinny: Can Paul Bunyan's Axe return to Minneapolis after a decade in Madison?
Three things to watch for:
The Badger defense: Here's a stat for you – the Golden Gophers are allowing 4.44 yards per rush this year; Wisconsin are allowing 4.32 yards per play! This is the daunting task that faces Minnesota. Running the ball on Wisconsin is tough, but the pass defense may be even better. If the Gophers struggle to move the ball on the ground, they don't have the kind of passing attack to dent the Wisconsin secondary. This could be a bloodbath.
The turnover battle: Minnesota will have its hands full with the Badger's running game, and the best they can hope for is to slow them down. With that in mind, forcing turnovers will be a key to their defensive game plan, as it has been all season. Any fumbles or errant passes that can be snagged and turned into points or favorable field position will help keep the Gophers competitive.
That new-fangled forward pass": It would be a great surprise if Minnesota didn't load up the box to try to slow down the Badgers. It would also be a great surprise if Wisconsin didn't run the ball anyway. Even so, expect to see Joel State hook up with Jared Abbrederis, especially early if Minny have some success against the run. The Gopher secondary is okay, but they can't watch the run and focus on the pass too. Of course, it would be to Wisconsin's benefit if another receiver showed up this week.
Prediction: Wisconsin 38, Minnesota 13.
Indiana @ Ohio State
The skinny: After last year's points-fest (52-49), does anyone think Ohio State won't be taking the Hoosiers seriously?
Three things to watch for:
Can the Hoosiers run the ball?: Indiana have run the ball well against most teams on their schedule, with the exceptions being Missouri, Michigan State and Wisconsin. Now they face a similar test in the Ohio State, and like the Badgers, they have to do it without big play threat Tevin Coleman.
Hyde and seek: Braxton Miller gets most of the plaudits for the team's success, but Carlos has been the big dog on offense since coming back from suspension. He's at his best in the second half of games, particularly when opponents are keeping it close. Hyde takes his game to the next level, providing an unstoppable rushing threat. Expect Indiana's feeble run defense to see plenty of Hyde all game.
Roberson or Sudfeld:Quarterback has been something of a bone of contention for the Hoosiers, with both showing inconsistency too often. Roberson has looked better against the top teams on the slate, and is a good runner, but Sudfeld is the better pure passer. The Buckeyes pass rush may dictate who gets the lion's share of the snap on Saturday.
Prediction: Ohio State 50, Indiana 24.
Nebraska @ Penn State
The skinny: There's nothing on the line except pride, but these are two proud universities.
Three things to watch for:
The freshman factor: Both these teams will sport freshman QBs who've had middling degrees of success this season. Penn State's Christian Hackenberg is more accomplished, but has been inconsistent. Cornhusker Tommy Armstrong is a talented dual threat, but has been spelled by Ron Kellogg when he's struggled. Armstrong has the better offensive talent at his disposal (at least an edge), and that should be a big factor in this game.
ZZ Top: The Nittany Lions seem to have something for alliterative running backs, with Bill Belton and Zach Zwinak splitting carries over the course of the season. Zwinak has been the guy over the last couple of games, racking up 299 yards and 4 scores. Nebraska's run defense has been far from stellar this season, and could struggle against the powerful runner. Belton is still on hand to provide a change of pace too.
Ball control: Both of these teams have had ball control issues, with Nebraska's turnover margin at -8 (5 TOs last season), while Penn State's is a slightly less deplorable -6. Both offenses are very capable of moving the ball on the other, so coughing up the football and providing short fields could have huge momentum issues.
Prediction: Penn State 34, Nebraska 31.

Roll Tide! War Eagle! With SEC Media Days wrapping up Thursday, media voters once again think that the SEC Championship trophy will stay in Alabam, and the champion will be determined in the Iron Bowl.
Alabama and Auburn were picked to finish No. 1 and No. 2 respectively in the conference. The vote tally awarded 154 points to Alabama, and 75 points to Auburn, which was a distant second, according to reports. South Carolina came in third, Georgia was fourth, LSU was fifth, Ole Miss was sixth, and Arkansas and Mississippi State each received a point.
Despite a team with "a lot of question marks," according to Nick Saban, Alabama's recruiting has made expectations for the team predictable. Even with AJ McCarron gone, nobody expects the Tide to miss a beat. This shows that everybody is aware of how much Nick Saban builds around his quarterbacks and just plugs whomever he wishes in. Another loaded defense, amazing running game, stacked offensive line, and depth means it's almost crazy to bet against Alabama being the favorite every year now.
Auburn at No. 2 is also not surprising, given how fortunate the Tigers were last year and the fact that the Iron Bowl will be played in Tuscaloosa this year. Nobody seriously considered Auburn better than Alabama last year, even after their win. But people still respect them.
Georgia falling behind South Carolina is a little shocking. Both lost their quarterbacks, and both return a ton of talent elsewhere, so on paper it would make sense to put the Gamecocks ahead since they finished higher last year. But with the injury bug that bit the Bulldogs and the amount of players back on defense, I thought the media would propel them to third or even second. They should definitely be labeled a contender with Auburn and Alabama. South Carolina is worthy of being mentioned, though, as is LSU.
Ole Miss in the conversation is a direct result of the program Hugh Freeze is building, which even he acknowledged Thursday is "exceeding expectations." But who gave a vote to Arkansas and Mississippi State? Not to discount how good those two can be, but there's nothing to suggest either will be in the Top 5 of the conference by the end of the year. Texas A&M and Missouri both deserved points over either team, and I think they should be put ahead of Ole Miss as well. Tennessee and Florida cold both have higher expectations than the Razorbacks and Bulldogs also, but that's a little more even.
Alabama Talent Not Going Anywhere
In addition to being the SEC favorite, the Tide have eight first-team preseason All-SEC players, with Amari Cooper and T.J. Yeldon the leaders in votes on the team, tying its own record in 2011, according to al.com.
Auburn has the most All-SEC players overall with 13, according to The Ledger-Enquirer. In short, right now the state of Alabama dominates the SEC.
That Nick Marshall made first-team All-SEC quarterback, though, shows the type of hit the SEC took at that position. Mississippi State's Dak Prescott and Ole Miss's Bo Wallace are the second and third team quarterbacks, and while both could be great players, they were middle of the pack in the conference last year.

- a new Robin, unencumbered by love or hate and waiting to be embraced on her own merit…we hope.
- is related to Barbara.

Days before Jackson announced the medical leave, Nayak was arrested and pleaded not guilty to unrelated medical fraud charges. At Blagojevich's 2010 corruption trial, prosecutors said another Blagojevich fundraiser was ready to testify that Jackson instructed Nayak to raise money for Blagojevich's campaign to help him secure the Senate seat. The same witness later testified he attended a meeting with Jackson and Nayak.
Jackson was not charged and has repeatedly denied wrongdoing.

Jackson faces a Republican and independent candidate in November, though he's widely expected to win re-election. He first won office in a 1995 special election and has easily won each race since. Jackson's district includes parts of Chicago and some suburbs.
