Post subject: Raspberry pi ?
Hi--Is anyone here following/planning to get involved with the Raspberry Pi project ?
(I tried to post the link but since this is my first post I couldn't) It is raspberrypi and it is a dot org site (hope this will get the message through)
It's a cheap ~15-25 pound, VERY bare bones ARM 11 computer, GNU/Linux, maybe RISCOS in time. First distro will probably be Fedora or Arch. Since BLAG is based on Fedora and Fedora is ARM friendly BLAG should be a good fit also.
I love the idea of a UK built machine with a UK designed processor running a UK developed distro. Anyone else ?---mike

I have seen a video of Fedora 13 running on one of the alpha (pre-production) boards, seems to work fine. It was running abiword and Gedit and printing to a network printer. Take a look at the site, raspberrypi dot org, and look int the forums , search for fedora. I'd post links if I could but forum won't let me yet.--mike

The boards do not include NAND or NOR storage - everything is on the SD card, which has a FAT32 partition with GPU firmware and a kernel image, and an EXT2 partition with the rootfs.
We're not currently using a bootloader - we actually boot via the GPU, which contains a proprietary RISC core (wacky architecture ;) . The GPU mounts the SD card, loads GPU firmware and brings up display/video/3d, loads a kernel image, resets the SD card host and starts the ARM.
This is a c&p from the raspberrypi wiki. I'm guessing the propietary code in the GPU ROM makes the Rpi not meet BLAG's standard of "free as in speech"? Or does the fact that it's hardware make it not matter ? Sure would like someone in this group take a look and let me/us know what they think.--mike

I would like to see an arm version based on Pidora. I will begin playing around with one in the coming weeks.
Enjoy your day ahead!

Photographer Richard Ehrlich opened up his IRIS Nights lecture last night by saying that he loved quotes so much that he would incorporate many of them into his presentation. His first quote of the night was a light-hearted one by photographer Elliott Erwitt: "It's about time we started to take photography seriously and treat it as a hobby."
Richard stressed that he wanted his lecture to provide him an opportunity to be an advocate for photo manipulation, or rather, photo optimization as he prefers to call it. Tinkering with photos, he said, has been a part of photography since the medium's inception in the 19th Century.
He pointed out that the cannonballs in this photo taken during the Crimean War had been added to the original photo over 150 years ago. A convincing image even by today's standards.
Another favorite quote by Richard is credited to Richard Avedon: "A portrait is not a likeness. The moment an emotion or fact is transformed into a photograph it is no longer a fact but an opinion. There is no such thing as inaccuracy in a photograph. All photographs are accurate. None of them is the truth."
Richard talked in depth about the "decisive moment," the point in time that a photographer finds the right image. Learn more about his thoughts on this when his lecture is posted on our website very soon.
He also spoke about recent technological advances with digital cameras, detailing the impressiveness of Femto photography and the amazing Lytro and Red cameras.
One of our favorite quotes of the night was said by none other than the man of the hour himself. Said Richard, "There's nothing like the ability to realize your dream and the imagination than the digital." We couldn't agree more.
Thanks for such a great lecture, Richard! Check back soon to view his lecture online.
You can learn more about Richard on his official website.

How significant is holiday shopping to Galveston County? How about $969 million?
The owner of pit bulls that killed a neighbor's aged beagle late last month has taken her case to Facebook, prompting a firm rebuttal from an attorney representing the slain dog's owners.
There's a different feel around the city these days, one to which coach John Snelson and his team are more than happy adjusting.
The first four years of the Friends of Galveston Island State Park Fun Run, I was the only photographer.
Water temperature in the 50s is a game changer. Even our hard core surfers don't last long with the 3 millimeter wet suits most Texans wear, and the only swimmers we encounter seem to be Russian or Canadian.
Galveston's planning commissioners should be congratulated for their work updating the city's zoning standards in the draft "Land Development Regulation" (LDR) being considered for adoption by city council on Dec. 2.
Seventeen years ago Janice Hallisey had the idea to throw League City a Christmas party. The event would be a "social event" that would include entertainment, holiday shopping in the city's historic district and park and, of course, a parade.
What do you get when you combine dozens of volunteers and more than 1.5 million Christmas lights?
MEXICO CITY (AP) — Roberto Gomez Bolanos, the iconic Mexican comedian who wrote and played the boy television character "El Chavo del Ocho" that defined a generation for millions of Latin American children, died Friday at age 85.
NEW YORK (AP) — Some well-off Manhattan residents paid $100 each Friday for the honor of eating a candlelit holiday dinner with homeless people at a church, an intersection of two worlds that left one down-on-his luck man thinking the seemingly impossible might happen.

Sanchez Verdict 'Wasn't Too Big of a Shock'Posted by on December 5, 2012 – 8:10 pm
It was a typical Wednesday practice at the Atlantic Health Jets Training Center this afternoon.
Yet from an outsider's perspective it never appeared that way.
Two days of uncertainty regarding who the Jets' starting quarterback at Jacksonville would be came to an end this morning when head coach Rex Ryan announced that he would be sticking with Mark Sanchez.
"It wasn't too big of a shock to the guys," wide receiver Jeremy Kerley said.
"It really was no news to take in," right tackle Austin Howard added. "Personnel decisions are made by Rex, the GM and the owner. They've been here a long time to make those decisions."
Just three days ago, as the Jets were facing the Arizona Cardinals, Ryan decided in the third quarter that it was the appropriate time to pull Sanchez from the game. The QB had struggled mightily all afternoon, throwing three interceptions in his first nine pass attempts, and also was sacked three times. The benching proved to be the first time the fourth-year QB had been taken out of a game as a pro.
"I think quarterbacks get a lot of the blame for everything, good or bad," Kerley said. "But I think it falls a lot on his shoulders, good or bad. But we're an offense. We don't point fingers. We take the blame for what we put out there."
With backup quarterback Tim Tebow unavailable to go due to broken ribs, third-stringer Greg McElroy entered the game and led the Jets to the come-from-behind 7-6 win.
"I think for Greg, it just gives him the confidence," tight end Konrad Reuland said. "Whenever his number is called in the future, he has the confidence to go out there, and he knows he's led a comeback victory already in his career, threw a touchdown pass on his first drive. So I don't know how you wouldn't have confidence after the way he played. I think in the long run, it might make this team stronger, because now we have three quarterbacks that have experience what it's like to lead teams to comeback victories and win games in the NFL."
On Monday, Ryan said he needed more time to make his decision and he wanted to make sure to get feedback from several of his coaching counterparts before announcing anything.
"It was Rex's decision," cornerback Ellis Lankster said. "We're not mad or anything. We're just going to follow Rex's decision and going to play behind him."
The players had the previous two days off from practice, but that didn't mean the QB chatter wasn't heard around them.
"I was walking into stores and people were asking me about it," Lankster said. "I was like, 'I don't know. I haven't been to practice or anything yet.' So I didn't know what it was going to be."
Other players simply ignored the matter.
"I don't really pay much attention to it," guard Brandon Moore said. "It'll get figured out. That's why Rex is the head coach and he makes those decisions. I've got to worry about the game plan."
While the decision wasn't an easy one for Ryan to make, it's clear that year four for Sanchez hasn't been as smooth as many anticipated it would be. The Jets offense ranks 31st in the NFL and No. 6 has thrown 13 interceptions and had 18 turnovers through the team's 12 games this season.
"I think everybody does the best job they can," rookie WR Jordan White said. "Nobody goes in there and wants to mess up at any position. You just do the best you can. Some things might not go your way sometimes, but what can you do but come back to work the next day and get back to it. That's what everybody's done."
The issue with Sanchez has never been his drive. Many of teammates say he's one of the most dedicated people inside the locker room.
"Mark's a very hard worker," fullback Lex Hilliard said. "Week in and week out, he's here constantly, sometimes till 10 or 11 o'clock at night."
Reuland, who also was Sanchez's teammate at Mission Viejo High School, described a story of when their school lost in a California Interscholastic Federation championship game during Sanchez's junior year and how that loss inspired the QB.
"They didn't have a state championship in California back then," Reuland said. "But it was basically as far as you could go. It was a big loss and he bounced right back the next season and led us to a No. 2 ranking in the country, undefeated [season]. He bounced back from that.
"That was definitely an adverse situation because we were expected to win it all. But I don't think he would be here, at this level, if he didn't know how to overcome adversity. Look at his career at USC. He battled for three years before getting a chance to start. As soon as he did, he took advantage of it."
The players were going to support Ryan's decision either way. But now that it's been made, everyone was pleased it didn't drag out.
"I think the clarification is good on all parts, receivers, tight ends, running backs," Kerley said. "The whole offense, we needed that."
And what seemed to impress Sanchez's teammates most was the way the quarterback processed the situation he'd been dealt.
"Hats off to Mark," Howard said. "He handled it like a pro."
"He was very supportive of Greg," Reuland said. "And I know it was tough for him, but at the same time he was very supportive. I feel like Mark just wants to win like all of us. Obviously deep down, it's got to hurt a little bit. But at the same time, I think he did a good job of cheering us on and I feel like he's going to bounce back."
While many probably have lost belief in Sanchez, the people who truly count most have not.
"I got a lot of faith in him," Lankster said.
"He's going to put his best foot forward and give the team the best shot he's got," Hilliard said. "So that's all you can really ask for."
It'll be interesting to see how Sanchez performs Sunday in Jacksonville. But one big question was answered today and people have to accept it one way or another.
"I think with Mark, it's literally just he's a couple of great plays away from being right back to where he's been in the past," Reuland said. "Everyone in here has been through a time where they were a little down on themselves or whatever and all it takes is one or two plays to get right back out of it — 'Oh, wait, yeah, I can do this.' So I think that's going to happen. I think that's going to happen in this game."
Wednesday Injury Reports
The Jets' injury list is at 22 players today. New to the list: WR Stephen Hill didn't practice with a knee injury, DT Mike DeVito (shin) was full-go and so was FB Lex Hilliard (finger). Two other DNPs were WR Clyde Gates (concussion) and TE Dustin Keller (ankle). Four limited players: RB-KR Joe McKnight (ankle/ribs), G Brandon Moore (hip), NT Sione Po'uha (back) and QB Tim Tebow (ribs). The Jets' full injury list can be found here.
The Jaguars listed eight players who didn't practice today, among them RBs Maurice Jones-Drew (foot), Greg Jones (thigh) and Rashad Jennings (concussion), centers Brad Meester (foot) and Michael Brewster (hand), WR Cecil Shorts (concussion), CB Aaron Ross (calf) and DE George Selvie (concussion).
Limited were CB Derek Cox (hamstring) and DE Austen Lane (foot). Full were DT Tyson Alualu (calf) and CB Rashean Mathis (groin).
Sack Ex-Changes
The Elias Sports Bureau has revised the scoring of three plays, all of them sacks, in the Jets-Cardinals game. The Cards' final offensive play of the game was originally scored a split sack between DE Muhammad Wilkerson and LB Bart Scott, who swarmed rookie Ryan Lindley, but upon further review, the full sack has been given to Wilkerson, which lifts him past Bryan Thomas' 2.5 sacks and into the team lead with 3.0 sacks.
The other two sack revisions were both on Arizona takedowns of Mark Sanchez. The early-second-quarter sack split between LB Sam Acho and DT Darnell Dockett now goes fully to Acho. And the late-second-quarter sack divvied up between S Adrian Wilson and DT David Carter now goes all to Wilson.

Nothing shocks Sanchez, he thinks he's entitled to the job. One day he'll be in for a big shock, but probably not until this team is 1-15 and this whole franchise stops behaving so insincerely. The Jets have been bad many times, but I can't recall them ever trying to sell us a bill of goods like they are now. This column itself sounds like if was written for Pravda at the height of the Cold War.

The following post is from some guy who calls himself Kiss The Rings On Your Way Out, he posted it on Cimini's ESPN story about Rex starting Sanchez: "This is what the Jets have become under WRecks Ryan: Everyone will be watching a meaningless Jets game this weekend, not to see a playoff race or a great game, but to see how fast Sanchez fails and if the Buffoonish coach replaces him with another awful talent that the GM put in place for 2012, while we get the occasional shot of the owner hiding in his luxury box. LOL." Harsh medicine but I can't really say that some people on this site don't need to take it.

This is horrible!!!! As a long time Jets fan, for you guys to be sending out sanchez who threw 3 interceptions last week over a mcelroy who through no interceptions and a touchdown with the opportunity for a second touchdown if it werent for the time running out, its just completely insane. Sanchez has been QB for 4 years. The Jets got to the afc championship in his first two years but it wasnt his doing. It was the superior defense and running game. sanchez if anything was the reason why the jets didnt make it to the superbowl. you can ask ANYONE who watches sunday games. ANYONE it doesnt matter who they are a fan of, even during those afc championship years mark still looked like a bad QB. we fans deserve better. bring out mcelroy!!!!!!!!

Well I'm totally disgusted by this decision. There is no upside to playing Sanchez. The season is over let's see what McElroy can do.
I've supported Sanchez all along, but that last game was my breaking point. He is simply never going to be anything but average. And I don't want average.
Rex you should be fired for making this decision.
By scjoe on Dec 6, 2012 | Reply
"The Sanchez verdict was not to big of a shock" Why? Because this is the NY Jets we are talking about! But the real question remains, does Mark Sanchez really give this team it's best chance to win as Rex loves to preach? Well lets just break it down, in plain sight. WITH Sanchez starting the Jets are 4-7 and were on the verge of being 4-8. THEN, behind 3-0 in comes McElroy, he leads the team to the winning TD and then, what should have been a second TD, not to mention the energy he brought to the field and to the stands. So, lets re think that now, based on what we have seen with our own eyes, who gives you the best chance to win? Remove the politics, play to win! Man up, admit your mistakes.

1) The next game we lose will be because of Mark Sanchez
2) The next game we lose, Rex will give credit to the other team for the win
3) The next game we lose, Rex will say we have to play better
4) The next game we lose, Rex will say we have to protect the ball
5) The next game we lose should be Rex Ryan's last as a Head Coach
6) The next game we lose we'd actually win if Greg McElroy was starting
7) The next game we lose will be because of Rex's inability to "change" (INSANITY = The SAME OLD JETS ALL OVER AGAIN
8) The next game we lose proves this front office sealed their fate by giving Mark guaranteed money. Why? IT'S THE BLIND LEADING THE BLIND! &
IN THE LAND OF THE BLIND, THE ONE WITH ONE EYE RULES! (McELROY)

I was very surprised by the choice. While i think McElroy will never be a true #1 starter it would've been nice to see what he can do for the next 4 games. On the other hand Mark does give you the best chance to win games and thats what they need to do. He has hit rock bottom and he needs to start to get rebuilt just not sure this is the way to do it. Still the offensive talent around him is questionable at best and really i do expect him to play well this week but what does that prooe against the worst D in the NFL. I am rooting for Mark but i believe the 2013 starter is not on this roster as of right now.
By IRA on Dec 6, 2012 | Reply
While this all isn't on Mark clearly he struggles against teams with good D's. In 5 games against bad D's he is 3-2 with 8 TD's and 3 INT's and a 67% comp per. In 7 games vs good D's he is 1-6 with 4 TD's and 10 INT's with a 45% comp per. These #'s tell me he will play very well these last 4 games maybe struggle in Tenn thats it. Then they need to sit down at the end of the year and draw up a plan to get better all around for 2013

I dont think there will be a lot of posters here today saying they were surprised by this decision.Disappointed perhaps but no surprises. On another note, I do think its time to give credit where credit is do. Last season and during this years pre-season a lot was made about how bad our O-line was playing. Now I'm not gonna nominate any of our guys to the pro bowl this year but I do see a lot of improvement. Mangold has been solid,Brick has picked up his play from last year & Moore & Slauson have been decent as well. The biggest difference has been how much of an upgrade Howard has been over Hunter. Hey, he's not great,but at least our backfield doesnt look like a subway station at rush hour.
By SCfromNY on Dec 6, 2012 | Reply
I guess all the players in the lockeroom are behind Sanchez 100%. Strange that when McElroy entered the game you could feel the excitement and the players looked as if they stood up taller were ready to win. Sorry, but Sanchez will NEVER have that effect. He is a nice guy, hard worker, and dedicated to getting better. It probably will never happen. I am sure everyone out there has a hobby or job that they want to excell at. Unfortunately skill, physical attributes, and mental ability, (for whatever endeavor), holds you back. Just because you can not quickly "read" a defense or anticipate moves in chess does not mean you are limited in other endeavors. Unfortunately for some of us loving something doesn't translate into ability.

I don't understand how some people are saying McElory isn't the answer..How do you know that? Did NE know Brady was the answer when he was a back up to Bledsoe? He was drafted in 6th rd. G-Mac was drafted in 7th. Played under Saban at Bama which plays some of the top defenses in college football. Marty Lyons stated that Greg started 27 games and was 24-3. Brady started 25 games and was 20-5. All Brady needed was a chance, I think G-Mac deserves an opportunity.

Here's 5 things Mark doesn't have:
1. Intangibles
2.Mental toughness
3.Decision making skills
4.Good field vision
Now you tell me who scouted Mark Sanchez? He was on a team at USC that was loaded with talent so you really couldn't see his flaws. Those 2 AFC championship games, well that was a product of a great running game, O-line and a top 5 defense. So that covered up a lot of flaws too. Because we couldn't see what Mark was until his back was aganist the wall. So now, his weakness is showing. Luck is doing fine with a rookie TE and an aging WR…so you tell me…"Mark gives us the best chance to win"…

Rex Ryan, your boy Sanchez, had a roster last year LOADED with talent! Yet most of the games last year, he couldn't even drive his team 10 yards for a first down until the second quarter. In the end, we (and I say we) because I've been a Jets fan for 30 years, we were 8-8. This year, with a roster with far less talent, we are even worse—and of course, Sanchez is worse.
I applauded you last week for finally seeing what an entire stadium full of people know to be true……Sanchez is done in NY. Couldn't you sense the energy in the stadium? Couldn't you sense the energy of your offense AND defense?
I'm very disappointed with you Rex Ryan. Mark Sanchez does not give our team the best chance of winning! Start McElroy or Tebow.
By Rich on Dec 6, 2012 | Reply
It was obvious during last year's preseason that McElroy had more potential than Sanchez, yet Tannenbaum bought in Tebow this year giving the Jets the two most overrated QBs in the game. McElroy should start the remaining games this year to see if he's the team's QB of the future. Ryan is delusional that he thinks the Jets still have a chance at a wildcard berth.

Because of health (and age) reasons, I am not getting to the stadium much, BUT, I was there last week. Any excitement that was there, was gone as soon as Mark threw the first interception. The crowd was just not very interested from that point on. We were just anticipating what bonehead move Mark would do next. When McElroy came in, the place became loud and exciting. The crowd got into the game as if we were in a play-off. The place was ELECTRIC! Not sure if G-Mac is our guy, but I feel Mark will never be able to win back the Home Crowd.

Really it is an absolute joke that anyone can make any statements about McElroy's capabilities until he actually plays some games!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This I DO KNOW Sanchez is a horrible QB who has consistantly ranked in the bottom tier or QB' for 4 YEARS!!!!!!!!!
He has the second most turnovers in the NFL during his tenure. He compares to some of the biggest first round busts in the NFL by QB rating. This regime has proped him up by smoke and mirrors since the beginning. All his positive stats come after games are decided or against marshmellow defences anyone who

…actually watches all the games like some of here so see clearly he holds the team back. The only credit he gets is for not screwing up in the playoffs thats it! Against the Colts after Greene went down in the second half he imploded and couldn't carry the team. We then became the first team in NFL history to not make the superbowl having the number 1 defence and running game for the year. In the Steelers game all his stats came in the second half when we were down 25-0. He failed to get it done in crunch time. He has consistantly for 4 years been bad with a few shining moments.
If Sanchez were on any other team he would have been benched already. Reid pulled the plug on Vick and Harbough pulled the plug on Smith both significantly better

The Jets have never won a game in Jacksonville. They are 0-3 and the last time they got smoked 41-0. Time to get a win down there.
Mark was headed in the right direction after 10 and they changed their philosophy and way too much change with the players around him. It is what it is right now.
Those 5 things well 4-2 in the playoffs and those come from behind games in 10 are nothing to sneeze at. Its too bad he has gone backwards since especially after being rated the #1 RZ QB last year. Hope he can get his career back on track either with the Jets or another team.

The only thing that surprised me about this decision is that Rex waited until Wednesday to announce it. I thought he'd come back Monday and say that Sanchez was still the QB. Allan: Don't hold your breath waiting for those 5 things Sanchez does well. Naming 1 would be a challenge. But here goes: Fumbling, throwing inaccurate passes, throwing INTs, getting sacked, being grossly over-paid. Karan: Give MS a chance next year? Sure, let's give him more money also. If Rex and MS are back next year, I'm done watching this joke of a team. I'll wait it out until Woody sells or wakes up and smells the stench. Real long-time Jet fans can't stand it anymore. We care that everybody in sports is laughing at us. Maybe you're ok with that.

Ira, we have both been around this team for a very long time now. You are a knowledgeable fan, I like to consider myself one as well. That said, I have heard the phrase "Mark gives this team it's best chance to win" so often now that it is becoming comical. Now you say it in your post above, so PLEASE, explain to me exactly how "MS gives this team it's best chance to win?" Compared to what? He is 4-7 as a starter and was on the verge of becoming 4-8 before G Mac came in. There have been 6 games this year under MS where they scored 10 or less. How can that possibly equate to "the phrase" In a little more then a quarter G Mac drove the team to what should have been 2 TDs. Coincidence?

Interesting, Arte, that your conceptual-art post says essentially the same things as Ira's more traditional posts. Then again, everybody here today is pretty much saying the same thing, which is the Jets under Rex have become this blind, denial-ridden org that runs entirely on politics without the slightest concern for results. Well, I pretty much despise politics, especially when it's as nakedly inept and unproductive as that, so I'm officially rooting for this team to get crushed in every game for the rest of this yr and all of next yr until Woody gets serious or gets lost. Nothing less is worth my time. As Jennifer Warnes (not a great lead singer but great backing up Leonard Cohen) sang, I know a heartache when I see one.

Karen, the sad truth is Mark Sanchez probably will be given a (5th.) chance next season, so that should make your day, but make no mistake, it is not because of his ability, or because he truly "gives his team the best chance to win" it will be strictly because of his salary, his extension, his draft position, and because of the fact this sorry FO refuses to acknowledge their terrible and expensive mistake. So, I ask you, from one Jet fan to another, is that really what you want for this team? Do you really believe it is ALL the other people around him EVERY season, or just maybe it is him?

And some quick points that hardly need mentioning, but just for the record: Goodell's idea of eliminating kickoffs is not just the dumbest thing I've ever heard, but conclusive proof that he's all for destroying the game on ridiculous whims. I wish Keller no personal harm or pain but I'm not upset that he keeps having injuries that keep him off the field because otherwise Mr T would surely throw a ridiculous contract at him next yr that he in no way deserves. And yes, Arte, read Cimini's piece on Henne, with him playing better than Sanchez we could definitely lose on Sunday. Of course, more embarrassing losses are exactly what this franchise needs if it's ever going to move forward…

IRA, I cant imagine why you of all people would be even mildly surprised by Rex starting M.S? Really, S.C.Joe said it best above. Most of us here are not surprised and I'm think'n at least 95% agree that Mark does not give us the best chance to win. No way anyone is gonna convince most of us here this decision was not financially motivated. If McIlroy started and played well there is no way Rex or Tanney or even Woodie would have been able to sell Mark to Jet fans. I'm sure the organization is hopeing Mark succeeds so they can better shop him during the offseason.

Being from the pacific northwest I don't get to see a ton of jet games live this season, So I have to listen jets radio network on my computer. I can watch the games after they are over on NFL GAME REWIND on the NFL network. I have been a Sanchez supporter for every game up until the 49'rs game this year. I got a little hope back after the houston game, but that as taken away after the second miami game. There was no reason to watch or follow any other Jet games until the culture of this team changed. When they finally gave McElroy a chane last sunday I came back to life as a jet fan, Yelling J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS as loudly as I could, annoying everyone in my house with cheers for my green and white. This team has nothing to play for…
By Larry Kamp on Dec 6, 2012 | Reply
Although this is not a popular decision, it is the only way to go. McElroy has small hands, weak arm, but very smart and can manage the game. IF we get back to a top defense in the league, there is a possiblity that McElroy will work, otherwise he is a second QB and that's it. Mark needs the chance on the road in these next two games to see if he can come off the bottom and to see if the team respects him enough to play hard. YOu might as well find out now. You need to find out now, once and for all. Either way we need to draft a QB in the 3 to 5 round and hope that we get someone to develop. First and second needs to go to RB and OL. Unless we pick up Jake Long from Miami as a FA in the off season, then we can go for LB and RB .

This is such nonsense. The players clearly want McElroy in there. A blind man could see that by their actions on the field last Sunday.
I expect more lousy play from Sanchez and another benching this season. Unfortunately it will probably be Tebow at that point and he is worse than Sanchez is.
Why can't pro coaches ever see what is so obvious to everyone else? Is it cronyism? Is it loyalty? Whatever. McElroy deserves a shot.

By the way the guys who have been giving me the business for saying we should look at Matt Barkley. I want you to know he is not even my top choice for QB he will be long gone before we pick but the guy I would want the Jets to take if he were there is Geno Smith West Virginia. I got this from "Walterfootball" Smith has completed 70 % of his passes this season for 3,597 yards, 37 touchdowns and 5 interceptions. The senior signal-caller has an excellent skill set. He is showing his intelligence and field vision by working through his progressions and looking off safeties. Smith has some natural accuracy with good arm strength to make all the throws. He can fire some fastballs into tight windows with phenomenal ball placement to hit

receivers in stride. Smith's plus mobility allows him to pick up first downs with his feet and bail out his offensive line. As a Junior He completed 66 percent of his passes for 4,385 yards with 31 touchdowns and seven interceptions. Smith also ran for 180 yards and two scores. As a Sophomore Smith completed 65 percent of his passes for 2,763 yards with 24 touchdowns and seven interceptions. It goes on to say Smith shows the arm to be quality passer with some natural accuracy. He has earned a reputation as a very hard worker and true student of the game who puts in a ton of time in the film room. Smith is a good athlete who could fit well in a West Coast offense." This is the kind of guy we need A Senior 3 year starter who has a cannon

This is also after that fact that this year they played against better competition in a better conference.

I do not understand all the "weak arm" comments about McElroy. He is not RG3 or Cam but from what I have seen in college and preseason he can make the throws. Can he sit back and throw 75 yard hail mary like Rodgers? NO! But not many QBs can.You have 32 teams and maybe 5/6 "elite" QBs. You have many other winning QBs. You can not win or go to a SB every year. Peyton has only won 1 SB but his winning seasons, leadership, and competitive persona all contribute to being elite. The Jets do not need an elite QB. It would be great to find one but you can have a QB who wins constantly, keeps you in games, and is the face of the franchise. A QB who makes you want to watch and root for him.

I'm genuinely happy to see so many fans, both in these stories and on Eric Allen's blog, saying that they're done rooting for this team until it gets serious. When you follow a joke of a franchise like the Jets, it's unrealistic to think your level of enthusiasm can stay equally high at all times. Heck, half the folks who get married can't even manage that! But I've never missed a game since becoming a fan, having either attended, watched, or (back in the days of local blackouts) listened on the radio. That doesn't mean I have to view the games in the same way at all times, though. If it takes more failure to bring this utterly dishonest, manipulative, and most of all clueless edition of the Jets to an end, I'm perfectly fine with that.

Spicer, having criticized you for citing Sanchez's stats so often, I applaud you for citing the stats of possible QBs who can rescue us from this mess. Thanks for turning your energy in a TRULY positive direction — those who think endlessly making excuses for awful FO decisions, coaches, and players represents positive action are playing with the wrong deck or an empty one. scjoe, that's a very civilized plea you've made to Ira. I too have to wonder why some fans seem to embrace mediocrity as they get older, which is something I have no time for in any arena.

agree SCfrom NY. Lets remember Jamarcus Russell who actually WAS able to throw the ball 75 yards downfield from his knees. How is that working out for him? As I have stated before, give me the guy with all the intangibles over the guy who simply has the rocket arm any day. Now, that said, next thing to find out "for sure" is if G Mac actually does have all of those intangibles. For me, there is only one way to find out for sure, and as of now, that has gone by the wayside.

As for Eric's question "How Will Sanchez Respond?," the answer is disappointingly at best, disastrously at worst as seems to have become his usual range of performance. And by the way, Eric, per your blog, you get paid to cover this miserable team, us fans do it by choice. So there's a time when maybe you start rooting for change instead of the status quo because you've finally taken enough punishment. No true fan wants to lose contentedly or, as Lombardi famously said, "Show me a good loser and I'll show you a loser." We got a lot of losers around here arguing that Sanchez deserves endless chances, and we'll keep losing as long as Woody thinks enough of us see things that way.

J.Caldwell, While I am no Mark Sanchez fan I gotta ask you; what "loaded roster" last year? Are you serious? I certianly hope you are not referring to Mason & Burress? Two guys who were clearly too far past their prime to be of any use.
In my opinion,last year is where this whole thing fell apart. Tannenbaum fixated on trying to sign Nandhi Asamuagh instead of shoring up the obvious holes we had at R.T, W.R,R.B,T.E & safty. He waited too long as the better F/A's were scapped up he was left with bargain basement talent like over the hill Mason,Burris & the now infamous Wayne Hunter. Just about every alalyst openly stated that although Sanchez is not a franchise Q.B he was dealt a terriable hand as far as surrounding talent on offense.

IRA, I'm not sure the Jets change their offensive philosophy in 2010 by design. I think it was more of a bye product of Tannenbaum doing such a poor job procuring talent along the O-line. If you recall last year Mangold was injured Slauson played injured & Hunter was a disaster. When your R.B.s are hit as they are takeing the handoff & cant get back to the line of scrimmage its impossable to run the ball. They brought in Mason & Burress not to become an ariel circus, but because they thought B.Edwards was looking for too much money & Mason was supposed to be an upgrade over Cotchery who they viewd as injury prone & slow? Marks problems are simply the fact he has not improved his accuracy & decision makeing.

So coach Ryan ( I use that term loosely) decided that Sanchez gives his team the best chance to win. Huh? Question, when coach Ryan walks the sidelines at the game, does he look out at the field to see what"s going on? Really, does he have any clue as to what he is watching? Sanchez has been a total disaster this season. There has been nothing redeeming about his season! Interception, fumbles, red zone failures, and these are his good features! Come on coach, open your eyes, watch the game, and then decide who should be the QB. McElroy came in, the team became energized, and they won! Enough said. Ryan must be fired. As Tannenbaum! and Sanchez, needs to find a new home.

Joey started right away since Detroit fans had been DESPERATE for a legit QB since Leather helmets. Take a look at Joey's career numbers… they almost perfectly match Marky's (couldn't resist) I remember watching Harrington and thinking "decent arm, lightning quick release, good athlete, seems smart when interviewed" whats wrong with this picture? In Detroit fans started calling him a "sissy" he clearly did not like getting hit – The slightest hint of pocket collapse and Joey threw the ball away.

Now Joey Harrington is college football TV analyst – good for him, I don't hate him the way most Lion fans here do. I see a guy with a lot of talent but, perhaps not enough heart or courage to play at the NFL level. Nothing to be ashamed of, most fans heart would skip a few beats in the face of an NFL blitz. Harrington is also a phenomenal classical and jazz pianist, did you know that? Well, there it is – take a look at some of Joey's football highlights/lowlights if not for the uniforms you'll swear it's our own Mark Sanchez. One other thing, Joey was classy, never blamed others, always claimed team was getting better, Sound familiar? – In Detroit people call him "Joey Blue Sky"

What Sanchez mostly did was stop us from going further in the post-season at best, SOCAL, and he failed to step up in the biggest games. Besides, that was two years ago. The last two years have been almost non-stop ineptitude. No one puts up with that in the NFL anymore, as you can see by what's happened at the QB position in SF (benching a Top 5 QB) CIN (unloading a QB with yrs left in favor of a new one), CAR (drafted 4 QBs in 2 yrs until they got the right one, and even now GaryC doesn't think they did), and so on. There's simply not enough desire at present in the Jet FO to build or manage the team that aggressively, and that's why we're where we are now.

Translation of tho speech made by Mr. ALBERT GUIGUI, representative abroad of the French C.G.T., at Warrington, the 14th July 1944.
Mr. Mayor, Ladies and Gentlemen,
We are very appreciative, as Frenchmen, of the marks of sympathy which the inhabitants and the city of Warrington have never ceased to show towards us every year, on the 14th July, since 1940.
The hope which you expressed yesterday has become a reality. The Allied Armies have set foot on the Continent, and with the active co-operation of the French forces of the Interior, a part of French soil is already freed from the Nazi yoke.
My Allied friends, on this day our joy is great, but we know yours is no less great, to feel once again the physical presence of France, presence which you missed almost as much as ourselves.
Following this four years' separation we read in your hearts and in your eyes a question which your great tact restrains you from formulating. You ask yourselves : "What will be the France of tomorrow? "
It is for us a friendly duty to set your minds at rest. If I have no authority for speaking in the name of the whole of France, I can at least do so in the name of a large part of her people, in the name of that wonderful working-class, bravely committed to the fight since the occupation of our Motherland, and grouped in the powerful Confederation Generale du Travail which, in the spring of last year, sent me to bring its public adherence to tho Comite National de la France Combattante and its President, General da Gaulle.
In the still very dark days of November 1941, General de Gaulle defined the programme of French policy in three Articles. Never was a political programme so brief nor so clear. It was and it remains our programme,
ARTICLE No. ONE : Wage war; pursue and beat the enemy.
Scorning the enemy's blandishments, the French working-class set itself against him before being directly struck by him. With what disproportionate means the labouring classes fought against the Boches, and they continue now under much better conditions.
As in all the great crises in our history, the popular patriotic instinct made itself heard. For the people, in normal times, patriotism is not a matter to be spoken of. Although its dislike of making an unnecessary show of it has often led to its being accused of indifference, it nevertheless remains true that it is its patriotic instinct which once again saved France. We can therefore assert that the first Article will be fully applied.
ARTICLE No. TWO: Give back the word to the people so that they can freely express what they want and what they do not want.
The second Article will be fulfilled quite as much as the first. It must not be believed that hate for the oppressor, and it alone, bound the French people together in this tragic period, and that is losing the use of public liberties they lost the taste for them. Quite the contrary! More than ever, the people of France aspire after liberty, and they will never agree to being a shapeless mass, recognised as the only legitimate sovereign but in fact deprived of the rights which must allow them to nominate, to direct and to supervise their government.

Contact should be made as soon as the physician's prognosis indicates a limited life expectancy. The hospice team is most effective when they have the time to develop an appropriate treatment plan and establish the relationship needed to ease the bereavement process.
If a patient's physician feels hospitalization is necessary, the hospice team will continue to coordinate the patient's care. After the patient is discharged from the hospital, hospice will resume in-home care. This continuity of care ensures support for the patient and family.
Tanner Hospice Care is a covered benefit under most private insurance plans. In addition, hospice is a covered Medicare and Medicaid benefit in Georgia. Private donations and community support also allow hospice to offer services based upon need, rather than the ability to pay.
Hospice is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Even if you just need to talk, don't hesitate to call. We are here for you. Please call 770.214.2355.

Advent Candy Calendars
By Mike
from Versailles, Indiana
These Advent Candy Calendars have become a Tradition for my children; they have shared with me over the years they now really look forward to the silly things every Christmas. The Calendars arriving right before Thanksgiving signals to them, the beginning of Holidays. The children have grown up. Now I send the calendars their children, my grand kids. For many years I had to look, but eventually found these Candy Avent Calendars locally at different merchants etc; in later years the calendars became more difficult to find, to purchase, and then greedy merchants tagged the item with high price, doubling in price llast year, and did so for no for no reason. So, I thought, well I will look on GOOGLE this Christmas Season / POOOF ... BINGO!! GOOGLE lead me right to Miles Kimball whom had exactly what I wanted for all my grand children. No more driiving around in cold searching for Advent Calendars for me, I just get them from Miles Kimball Website now.Thanks Miles Kimball!

I have ordered these calendars every year for the last 5 years for my grandchildren. They have become a family tradition. I get reminders starting in September to not forget the calendars. We would likely be facing mutiny otherwise.Advent calendars (with or without chocolate) are a tradition in Germany and I am pleased to continue it in the US with my grandkids.The chocolate bite behind each door is a plain milk chocolate pressed into different Christmas shapes, angel, stocking, wreath...

Brahms: motets
Helios (Hyperion's budget label)CDH55346
No 1: Es ist das Heil uns kommen her
author of text
No 2: Schaffe in mir, Gott, ein rein Herz
author of text
Psalm 50 (51): 12-14 (10-12)
'Es ist das Heil uns kommen her' is richly scored in five parts (divided basses), consisting of a chorale harmonization (cf Op 74 No 2), followed by an extended Allegro fugal setting based on the main chorale melody. Brahms alleviates the relatively conventional approach to harmony by the subtle use of a number of archetypal chromatic inflections, most potently in the final bars, intensified by their suspension over a tonic E pedal point in the bass.
'Schaffe in mir, Gott', also with divided basses, opens with a canon (Andante moderato) in augmentation; that is to say, whilst the sopranos sing their melody twice through, the basses simultaneously sing the identical melody but at half speed, the two parts finally meeting up at the end of the section. However, such is the resulting simplicity of musical utterance, that the casual listener would hardly be aware of this intellectual conceit. 'Verwirf mich nicht' (Andante espressivo) is texturally more complex, exhibiting a transcendental contrapuntal mastery. Particularly notable is the exhilarating effect caused by the canonic interplay between the sopranos and tenors just before the end of this section, sending both parts soaring up to a top A flat within a beat of each other. The following 'Tröste mich' (Andante) is another canon, this time overlapping horizontally at the distance of one bar, and vertically by the interval of a seventh, appearing initially between tenors and second basses. This leads directly into the final section ('und der freudige'—Allegro) which, with its thrilling sequences of running thirds, ends the motet in a mood of resounding affirmation.

Mark 9am on February 17th in your diaries ladies. Because that's when Mary Katrantzou's latest capsule collection for Topshop will be hitting topshop.com (well, actually, our sources at Topshop HQ tell us that it might be a little bit earlier so probably best to log on about 8.30 to be on the safe side!). And expect queues of fashion-forward bunnies desperate to get themselves a piece of MK at the nine branches of Topshop that will be stocking the collection too.
The nine-piece Spring Summer 2012 collection (priced between £40 - £350) is inspired by Mary's mainline range for Autumn Winter 2011 so is certainly not 'Katrantzou lite'. Expect to see the same head-turning collage prints and lampshade-shaped party dresses that the designer has become famous for since she stormed onto the fashion scene five seasons ago. Hyper vivid crystal flower brooches, lacquered Coromandel screens and Qing Long Dynasty floral motif china dazzle on satins, silks and jersey. For a first look at the full collection, have a browse through our gallery above.
So what's Mary's favourite piece? Well, it's the bowl-skirted dress at £350, which is a limited edition piece and a total bargain if you consider a Katrantzou catwalk equivalent usually sells for £8,500. 'I'm astounded that Topshop managed to get it to that price!' the Greek-born designer exclusively told Grazia. 'It's boned and a very intricate pattern. Plus, only a few of them have been made, so it's something very special. I know anyone who spends that kind of money doesn't want to see every else wearing one.'
There are also some simpler pieces too – trousers, blouses, T-shirts and leggings that can be worn layered together for the diehard MK enthusiasts or can be mixed with simple pieces for the fashion risk averse. We'll take one of everything please.

It was a morning of great heights with the compass of cool shifting up, up, and away as designers opted for skyrise glass buidings in the city to debut their A/W '13 collections. Antonio Berardi put on a polished and sleak performance with his combination of homespun and futuristism. There were plaids and tweeds mixed in with sheer panelling and jumbo crystals. Nothing was as it originally seemed, on second glance we noticed Berardi's attention to the backs and side panels, an added treat for the audience. Sexy and body hugging from the front, balloning sleeves and caped backs being key silhouettes.
Things we loved from the show...
- Sheer side panels with jumbo crystals. The attention to detail on the sides, and backs mean these dresses are 360 visual treat.
- The sculptural heels: weirdly wonderful. The archetectural heels.
- The clever use of shading, Berardi really does know how to flatter the female form, smart colour coding.
- The holographic jacquard in the sports baseball shaped sweater dress.
- Cape backs. Longer lengths that trailed behind attached to dresses, tops and to a jumpsuit.

WASHINGTON - Washington Redskins owner Dan Snyder expressed a strong opinion when USA TODAY asked if he'd consider changing the team's name.
"We will never change the name of the team," he said.
The newspaper then asked if he'd change the name if the team lost an "ongoing federal trademark lawsuit."
Snyder replied, "We'll never change the name. It's that simple. NEVER -- you can use caps."
Snyder said he was a lifelong Redskins fan and feels fans understand the team's "great tradition and what it means."

There's a new tank enchant coming with the next patch (3.0.8) wich adds 50 sta to your 1H..
I just picked up my first epic tanking weapon tonight, Broken Promise. I'm very excited about it, and that it should compare favorably in threat to a faster weapon due to DW. I had a dilemma in how I wanted to enchant it. I decided to go with accuracy, do you think I made the right choice?
There's a new tank enchant coming with the next patch (3.0.8) wich adds 50 sta to your 1H..
Accuracy is a solid threat choice.
Galushi - 85 Dwarf Warrior - Shadowsong US Alliance.
Branigan - 85 Goblin Warrior - Kilrogg US Horde.
Yeah the Stamina one has been removed, and I guess for me a ilvl213 tank weapon deserved a high end enchant, not just a weapon chain. Thats part of how I justified it in my mind
just put lifestealing or moongoose or smth, all the wep enchants are teh suck atm
AFAIK, Mongoose proc rates are terrible for level 80 characters, so that option is out for me. I am probably going to snag either Lifeward, agility or a weapon chain. Does someone have math that would prioritize these for warrior tanks that are considering slow weapon enchants? My thinking is that a threat enchant would be the weapon chain, and the mitigation/avoidance enchant would be the agility. Thoughts?
I just put a Weapon Chain on it. The hit rating is nice. I'm waiting to upgrade the enchant until the next patch actually comes out. Who knows what they will add/remove.
While Accuracy is good...if you have access to Broken Promise, chances are you have access to Last Laugh in the not too distant future. If gold isnt an issue go for it, but bear in mind you could replace that weapon next week, and Accuracy isn't THAT much better than a weapon chain.
Weapon chain is always a good bet these days, with the bit of hit. Especially if you're forseeably going to replace the weapon in the near future, even if it's just a slim chance, or if you just dont' want to blow the money for an accuracy enchant. I'd hold on to the weapon chain in hopes of seeing Last Laugh soon.
The thing is I spend most of my raids in 10 mans, and actually planned on not picking up any 25 man gear. This week I could make our guild's 25 man raids (its only our second week, we waited to start until after christmas), and accrued enough dkp to pass the 3 other tanks who had already got loot. I don't plan on seeing a last laugh in the near future, especially being behind on dkp and having 3 other tanks in the guild wanting. So essentially this is it for me until 3.1 comes out.
Personally, then, I'd still stick with the chain until 3.1 comes out. It's still hard to say what all will flip around, then, there might be something better in your pocket, or more worth the money. And congratulations, by the way, on grabbing up Broken Promise out of a luck-made raid.
Here is your indisputable answer:
65 AP on your slow weapon for trash.
Accuracy on your fast weapon for bosses.
Mongoose if you need additional mitigation/avoidance.
Weapon chain if you are broke.
65 AP is nice for:
- Thunderclap dmg
- Shockwave dmg
- Concussion Blow dmg
- Deep Wounds damage
- If you are hit capped (verses trash this is easy to do)
- Cost: medium
Accuracy is nice for:
- Single-target bosses

Tickets and Events
Want to entertain your kids while giving them the chance to pose with the Wizard of Oz characters, Will Smith, and Elvis? A trip to the Wax Museum is a photo op, with big fun and information.
The exhibits span four floors with over 200 figures in elaborately staged scenes, with costumes, props and lighting. This deal gets you two Child tickets OR half off of one Adult ticket at one of San Francisco's most popular landmarks.
Spend the day, have lunch nearby, and create cool memories!
As one of the world's largest wax museums, this (fully restored) San Francisco attraction shows all aspects of life, from the ignoble Chamber of Horrors to the inspiring Hall of Religion. Other interesting aspects include the historic Library of U.S. Presidents, the spectacular re-creation of King Tut's Tomb, and the unique Palace of Living Art, where the world's most famous masters and their masterpieces come to life through the magic of wax artistry.
Among both foreign and domestic visitors, the most popular part of the wax museum tour is The Gallery of Stars. Artisans are busy continually producing a galaxy of brand new stars, such as Leonardo Dicaprio and Will Smith, who join Humphrey Bogart, Marilyn Monroe, and John Wayne.

Alexander Stubb also gives us his opinion on new French President François Hollande and on eurobonds.
