HOT TOPICS: Alcoholism Addiction AA Cocaine Heroin
Kendra Wilkinson Reveals She Nearly Died From Drug Abuse
Reality star and former Playboy bunny Kendra Wilkinson has opened up about a severe drug addiction during her teenage years that nearly left her dead.
Wilkinson, currently competing on British reality show I'm a Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! admitted to taking cocaine, crystal meth, and LSD on a regular basis. She would use lunch money from her mother to buy drugs and eventually resorted to stealing from her grandmother. A toxic cocktail of cocaine and other substances even led to a nearly fatal overdose at the age of 14.
"My drug habit was turning into a nightmare pretty quickly…I almost didn't survive. Line after line, I just kept going. Usually, I knew my limit and stopped myself when I hit it because even though I was a druggie, I was still fearful of anything bad happening," she told Sunday People. "I was shaking and choking on the blood that was dripping down my throat. I was in serious trouble, everyone thought I was dying."
But despite nearly dying, her friends at the scene of the overdose abandoned her and refused to call for an ambulance. She miraculously survived and became sober shortly after. But rather than entering into treatment, Wilkinson said she stopped cold turkey and "recovered on my own. I decided I had had enough."
She is hardly the only former Playmate to struggle with drug abuse. Jenny McCarthy revealed in her 2012 autobiography that she got hooked on Vicodin and took up to 10 pills per day, while Miss February 2006 Cassandra Lynn Hensley tragically died last January of a reported drug overdose after she was found floating in a friend's bathtub.
Former Playboy model Brandi Brandt was sentenced to six years behind bars last August after pleading guilty four months earlier to conspiring to import drugs. She was part of a ring in 2007 that hid cocaine packages on planes flying from California to Sydney on United and Qantas Airlines, with an airline catering company collecting the packages once the plane landed.
Last month, former Playmate Krista Boseley was apprehended along with Gilles Joseph Pierre Lapointe after allegedly trying to smuggle 50,000 MDMA pills onto a private plane.

Sheriff's Deputy Allegedly Pressured Woman to Cook Meth
A former Alabama sheriff's deputy, who allegedly forced a woman to cook methamphetamine, has reached a plea agreement, which was released early November.
Grady Keith Concord, 42, agreed to plead guilty to three federal charges—one count of extortion under color of official right, one count of manufacturing methamphetamine, and one count of manufacturing and distributing methamphetamine on premises where children are present or reside—according to a U.S. Attorney's office press release.
Concord was charged with manufacturing methamphetamine in June, when he was arrested. As part of the plea deal, Concord, who was a sheriff's deputy with the Winston County Sheriff's Office, agreed to surrender all law enforcement certifications and to not seek future employment in law enforcement or custodial oversight.
"We were informed of his criminal behavior, we investigated, and we made an arrest. This is something we do daily," Sheriff Rick Harris said in June. "There is nothing easy about policing your own employees. You just want to see them in a better view, but sometimes they fail you and themselves."
In July 2013, Concord allegedly forced a woman to manufacture methamphetamine for him, arranging to supply pseudoephedrine, a meth ingredient, in exchange for the finished product.
According to the press release, Concord, a meth user, obtained some of the decongestant pills, which contain pseudoephedrine, from the sheriff's office evidence room. The woman, who lives in Nauvoo, claimed Concord threatened to arrest her if she did not cook the methamphetamine. Concord denied this, but conceded that she might have felt that she "had no choice but to accept his offer" because he was a sheriff's deputy.
Since his arrest in June and being fired from the sheriff's department, Concord has remained in jail with bond set at $500,000.
Awaiting his sentence, Concord could face a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine for extortion, 20 years in prison and a $1 million fine for manufacturing methamphetamine, and 20 years and a $2 million fine for manufacturing methamphetamine in the presence of a minor.
Study Attempts to Link Teen Brain Structures and Alcoholism Risks
Researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center are conducting a series of tests to determine if factors involved in the developing brains of teenagers may indicate whether or not they will be at risk for alcohol dependency.
The experiments, which are part of the National Institute of Mental Health's Adolescent Development Study, involved 135 pre-teen and teenaged boys and girls with an average age of 12.6 years. All participants were given structural and functional MRIs, as well as questionnaires and several neurocognitive function tests. Two of the tests, the Continuous Performance Task (CPT), which examines issues of impulsivity, and the Temporal Discounting Task (TD), which looks at preferences for immediate rewards over delayed rewards, were given to the test subjects while they were being scanned in the MRI.
The data was then correlated with a series of four studies to determine the impact of genetic and external factors on the test subjects. In the first study, the parents of 32 participants were asked to fill out a questionnaire that asked about their children's emotional responses to social behavior. That information was then used by the researchers to divide the 32 participants into two groups: those at a low risk for alcohol abuse and those with a higher risk rate.
Then the participants' MRI scans were examined for brain connectivity within the Executive Control Network (ECN) region of the brain, which includes the areas that process emotion and self-control. The researchers concluded that those participants in the higher risk group showed significantly lower ECN connectivity than those in the low risk group.
A second test used the Drug Use Screening Inventory (DUSI), which examines both drug and alcohol use and associated mental and social issues. A group of 17 participants were again divided into low and high risk groups, and then given the CPT test during an MRI to determine connectivity between the prefrontal cortex and the insular cortex, which helps to process emotions. Once more, researchers found that the high risk group showed lower connectivity between the cortexes than the low risk group.
Two additional studies measured the relationship between diets with high levels of either sugar or the omega-3 fatty acid called DHA and issues of impulsivity. The TD task in the former study confirmed the hypothesis that kids with higher levels of sugar in their diets preferred immediate rewards, while those with lower levels of DHA had greater activity in the region of the brain that monitors attention to tasks.
Though greater research is required to connect all of this data to an accurate prediction of which children are at risk for alcohol dependency, study director John VanMeter, Ph.D, said, "What this study is attempting to do is identify the differences in the brains of adolescents who go on to misuse alcohol and other drugs. If we know what is different, we may be able to develop strategies that can prevent that behavior."
Most Excessive Drinkers Not Addicted to Alcohol, Report Finds
A new study found that up to 90% of people who drink too much do not meet the criteria for alcoholism.
The report, based on a survey of 138,000 adults conducted by the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, concluded that alcohol abusers aren't necessarily addicted to alcohol. The report found that nine out of 10 heavy drinkers are not alcoholics, and can therefore be more easily treated.
Lead study author Dr. Robert Brewer, who is also the leader of the alcohol program with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, says identifying these problem drinkers can help with administering the proper treatment.
"Many people tend to equate excessive drinking with alcohol dependence," said Brewer. "We need to think about other strategies to address these people who are drinking too much but who are not addicted to alcohol."
So what drives those who are not physically addicted to alcohol to drink excessively? According to Brewer, a lot of it has to do with our society, as well as the environment where people consume alcohol.
"A lot of people have been led to believe that drinking, and often drinking a large amount, is part of having a good time," said Brewer. "What we need to do is change that environment in which people make their drinking decisions."
Brewer points out that while drinking to excess is still a problem, it's not quite as difficult to solve as alcoholism. One solution is to simply change the way we look at alcohol in general.
"I don't want to minimize the fact that excessive drinking can be a difficult behavior to change even in those people who are not alcohol dependent," said Brewer. "So many of the cues people get about drinking behavior in our society are confusing. People think drinking to get drunk is part of having a good time."
Seattle Parents Protest Drug Recovery High School Near Elementary School
A Seattle drug recovery school that helps teenagers earn their high school diploma has been met with opposition from parents because it's located next to a traditional elementary school.
An online petition against the recovery school, known as Interagency Academy, has garnered hundreds of signatures. Some parents didn't seem to understand that the students are committed to staying clean and sober, expressing fear of a very public relapse near young children or drug dealers setting up shop nearby. Other parents at John Hay Elementary, located across the street from Interagency, were upset about not being notified beforehand.
"We basically had to find out about it through a blog. Recovery and elementary should not be in the same geographic region," said Christina Economou, a parent whose child attends John Hay Elementary.
But other parents have expressed support for Interagency, with John Hay Elementary parent Lisa Reibin-Evans declaring that "if there's any school in the district at a high school level that's going to be clean and sober, it's going to be a program like Interagency's." The staff at John Hay Elementary also released a position letter to "send a clear message to these youth that they are welcome, accepted and wanted."
Recovery centers and rehabs located near schools have long been a source of controversy across the country. Last month, residents of Englewood, Ill., protested a group of ex-drug offenders moving into a rehab facility located near an elementary school. Parents at a local school council meeting claim that Southwood Interventions never notified them of the plan.
"All of this came to my attention by someone else and not Southwood Interventions and I have a problem with that," said Ald. Toni Foulkes. "There was no community meeting to let residents know anything and that was not right. I am not against drug treatment centers, but what sense does it make to bring people, who are trying to get off drugs, into a community with a drug problem?"
The center tried to ease parent concerns by assuring them that the offenders would wear ankle monitors at all times, but eventually scrapped plans to move them there.

If I am not mistaken hardibacker came out just a few years ago and does not have a proven track record. If I am wrong does anyone have long term experience with this product (10 or more years)?
don't forget it's not the backerboard's job to stop water,but to allow water to pass through it,if it did not the mortar would not dry,....good luck
As for your "water test" of the hardibacker, that is irrelevant. Water and mositure is supposed to pass through it, as opposed to repel it. (That is why thinset mortar adheres to it instead of just slipping off of it; it draws the thinset into it for a better bond.) The TILE and grout are supposed to stop the water before it gets to the backerboard. Moreover, wetting the back of a tile will yield similar results. If the Hardibacker became brittle when wet, then that would be a disadvantage, but, as you might have noticed, it does not, which is another one of its assets.
The backerboard is there to support the tile so that individual tiles set together as one unit once the thinset cures. Hardibacker does not shread like cement board under pressure or jolts, but it adheres to thinset just as well. That is why it is reputed to be better than cement board and often is the preferred backerboard. The primary (and perhaps only) significant advantage to ordinary cement board/wonderboard is that you can score and break it with a utility knife, whereas you should use a circular saw to cut Hardibacker.

Reminds me that astoundingly I have yet to write a poem about canoeing. What an oversight! Into my future poem list. Thank you! From my youth when I spent a summer in a boy's camp on Cass Lake in Minnesota (the Mississippi River flows through Cass Lake) I have loved both canoeing and canoe camping. I can already feel the birth of at least two poems because of your poem. We are both Christians as well. You would probably like my poems 'So Many Questions' and 'One Man's Miracle.' Look forward to reading more of your work! (Report) Reply

My Slim Bark
My slim bark, my slim bark
Glides smoothly cross the lake.
A common loon, a father
Thinks this a strange mistake
And flounders, a seeming wound
To lure me from his brood
As if my ever paddling here
Were something wrong and rude.
But I know so much different
The waters seem like home
And play with me from dawn to dusk
As happily I roam.
Sometimes they roll a coaster-ride
And I have scarce to pull
Sometimes they chop in drizzle's haze
And work is plentiful.
The sky affords a canopy
Of God's most vivid art
In clear blue heat, in threatening clouds
To thrill this wanderer's heart.
The air is fresh, my lungs are clean
The smell of pine delights
A moose looks on from evening's shore
And oh, those northern lights!
And such has been the legacy
Of voyageurs of yore
Who crossed these lakes, and camped these rocks
Through many moons before.
A small fire sheds its warming hue
The limbs all happily ache
And small frogs close the day in song
As sweet dreams overtake.

Could Big Data Spur Semantic Web Development?
The inventor of the web, Tim Berners-Lee, called the semantic web in 1998 already "a web of data, in some ways like a global database". This database will consist of all unstructured, semi-structured and structured data currently already online but still residing in silos across the web. In that same paper he describes the rationale for developing the semantic web as "the Web was designed as an information space, with the goal that it should be useful not only for human-human communication, but also that machines would be able to participate and help. One of the major obstacles to this has been the fact that most information on the Web is designed for human consumption, and even if it was derived from a database with well-defined meanings (in at least some terms) for its columns, that the structure of the data is not evident to a robot browsing the web".
So the semantic web will enable all humans as well as all internet connected devices (think: the Internet of Things) to communicates with each other as well as share and re-use data in different forms across different applications and organizations in real-time. It is clear that this has everything to do with big data. The question is, however, whether big data and its technologies can spur the development of the semantic web.
Big data is often discussed as the 3V's of volume, velocity and variety. Personally I think this is too short-sighted as it forgets a few other very important aspects of big data: veracity, value, visualization and variability. Veracity being the correctness of the data. Value being the economic benefits for companies, organizations and societies. Visualization being the art of making the data easy and understandable to read. Variability being the changing meaning of data over time.
Together these 7V's define big data and it immediately shows the challenges of the semantic web: how to connect, link and make available all data on the web that is created in large volume at high-speed in different variety and variability ensuring the correctness and quality of that data and making it understandable for humans and machines. It also shows how big data can help create the semantic web. All the technologies currently being developed for big data, such as for example Hadoop, open source tools or the technology developed by big data startups, will enable the development of the semantic web as processing, linking and analysing all that data becomes better and cheaper.
Ramani Pandurangan describes in a blog post the semantic web as "essentially a framework to link metadata (data about data) of data stored in disparate databases on the Web so that it will allow machines to query these databases and yield enriched results." When all databases that are currently still in silos on the web will be connected it will become possible for machines to find information currently difficult or impossible to find as well as connect and communicate with that information.
A great example of this is the Knowledge Graph of Google, which was introduced in May 2012. Google calls it the future of search, indexing things and not strings. Knowledge Graph is very promising, but as mentioned by Larry Page, they "are still at 1% of where Google wants to be". Currently the semantic network created by Google contains 570 million objects and over 18 billion facts about relationships between different objects that are used to understand the meaning of the keywords entered for the search. The objective is to develop a Startrek Experience, where users can simply ask computers natural questions.
Not only Google is working on semantic search, also big data startups like Ontology aim to connect things instead of strings. Ontology focuses on the enterprise applications instead of the web and therefore does for enterprise applications what Google does for the web.
The semantic web as discussed by Tim Berners-Lee already in 1998 focuses especially also on machines connecting and communicating with the web. Nowadays we call this The Internet of Things. We have discussed the Internet of Things already a few times on BigData-Startups but it is evident that it requires a semantic backbone to work. Connecting 25 or 50 billion different devices that are interoperable can only happen when those devices can browse, connect and communicate with the web like humans do. It becomes even more important when in about a decade or so we will reach a trillion sensors that are connected to the web.
Therefore, the technologies involved with big data do not only stimulated the development of the semantic web, they will also require a semantic web to work correctly and to take full advantage of the promises of big data. This might seem like a "chicken and egg" story but most of the big data technologies that are currently developed will be able to help develop the semantic web before the Internet of things has arrived in full force.

2-Night StayPosted Oct 6, 2014
The bed was not comfortable, and we did not sleep well. The bathroom is tiny, and the toilet loose from the base. The pool area didn't seem well-maintained--cracks in the hot tub, heavy, heavy chlorine smell. The breakfast buffet was okay, though $16 is way too expensive for the offering. The hotel staff is nice.

Pleasant Place to Pass the WeekendPosted Aug 11, 2014
Pros: Comfy beds Plush towels Staff is excellent
Cons: The buffet breakfast was OK. Nothing impressive. The eggs were a little too salty and tasted like they were powdered.
Location: Close to mall and restaurants.
We had a nice weekend stay here. The free parking was one perk that we were looking for (I flew in and my friend drove). Having said that it was a bit of a trek to downtown Chicago due to heavy traffic. The bed was super comfortable in a room that was a little smaller than I had anticipated. Another nice perk were the towels - thick and soft. *Make sure that you have a copy of your receipt if you buy breakfasts with your room. I didn't. Hotel was nice and comped us one day. If we had been really impressed with the breakfast then I would have found a way to prove that we had purchased them but the hotel also gave us a later check out so all in all it wasn't a problem.

NFC West: Cardinals-Panthers
A quick look at the Cardinals' four-man line
Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
One of the subjects discussed in the chat sent me searching through the Cardinals-Panthers video for more information.
To review, here's the chat item in question, with the answer I gave at the time:
Ken (Scottsdale, AZ): Mike, you track every play. The Cards now play Docket, Berry, Robinson, and Watson on every running down. This could have something to do with the improved run defense. Word from the local media is that the players came to the coaches to make this switch.
Mike Sando: I have noticed that four-man line. I do not know if players asked for the change. It does seem to make some sense.
Kent Somers of the Arizona Republic touched on this recently. I had noticed some of these four-man lines in the game, but hadn't analyzed it at all.
I've had time to re-watch the first quarter of the Cardinals-Panthers game, covering four Carolina possessions. During that time, the Cardinals used four-man lines when the Panthers used two backs, two tight ends and one receiver.
DeAngelo Williams gained 31 yards on the first run, a first-and-10 play. The Cardinals' line, left to right, consisted of Antonio Smith, Darnell Dockett, Gabe Watson and Bryan Robinson.
Arizona stopped Williams for no gain on the second play in question, a third-and-2 situation to end the Panthers' second drive. The Cardinals' line, left to right, featured Dockett, Watson, Smith and Robinson. I hope to take a look at a larger sample size, but first I wanted to pass along what I found in looking at the first quarter.
The Panthers switched between three main personnel groupings in that first quarter. These included regular personnel with two backs, one tight end and two receivers (eight snaps); "12" personnel with one back, two tight ends and two receivers (one play, a pass, against a three-man line); and those two snaps of "22" personnel with two backs, two tight ends and one receiver.
Rapid Reaction: Cardinals 33, Panthers 13
Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Cardinals did all the things they needed to do -- and then some -- in dominating the Panthers to reach the NFC Championship Game.
The Cardinals are suddenly a dangerous team. They can run the ball well enough to keep teams honest, and well enough to finish games. They can beat teams in the passing game even when Pro Bowl receiver Anquan Boldin does not play. They are opportunistic and increasingly disciplined on defense.
Logic says Arizona will have a hard time winning in the championship round if faced with a trip to the Meadowlands to play the Giants.
Logic also said the Cardinals couldn't win on the East Coast against the only team with an unbeaten home record this season, but Arizona had little trouble against the Panthers. The Cardinals played tougher games against the 49ers, Rams and Seahawks in the NFC West.
The Cardinals are playing the underdog role to maximum effect. They'll probably get another chance in the championship round. If their defense keeps forcing turnovers, the Cardinals will have a good chance against anyone, no matter the venue.
Hot Topic: Can Cardinals make Super run?
Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
CHARLOTTE -- With a 30-7 lead in the final minutes of their divisional-round game at Carolina, the Cardinals stand one victory away from reaching the Super Bowl.
Do they need an Eagles victory over the Giants to have any legitimate shot at advancing past the championship game? Or is this team capable of shocking its skeptics one more time?
If you think the Cardinals can beat the Giants, or if you think they had better hope for a home game against the Eagles, I'd be interested in hearing your rationale. I wouldn't rule out anything at this point.

Boldin declared inactive against Panthers
Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
CHARLOTTE -- The Cardinals named injured receiver Anquan Boldin inactive against the Panthers in their divisional playoff game.
Boldin's absence will likely affect the Cardinals' approach to this game, as discussed previously. Also inactive for Arizona: cornerback Eric Green, linebacker Victor Hobson, tackle Elliot Vallejo, tackle Brandon Keith, defensive tackle Alan Branch and tight end Ben Patrick. Brian St. Pierre is the third quarterback. If he plays, Kurt Warner and Matt Leinart could not return.
That leaves Stephen Spach and Leonard Pope as the active tight ends. Pope hasn't played much this season. He previously struggled with false-start penalties on running plays.
Inactive for Carolina: receiver D.J. Hackett, safety Quinton Teal, linebacker Adam Seward, guard Mackenzy Bernadeau, receiver Kenneth Moore, defensive tackle Darwin Walker and defensive tackle J'Vonne Parker. Matt Moore is the third quarterback.
Referee confidential: Steratore gets the call
Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
CHARLOTTE -- The NFL has assigned referee Gene Steratore to work the Cardinals-Panthers divisional game at Bank of America Stadium.
Steratore has worked four Panthers games (all on the road) and four Cardinals games (two home, two road) since becoming a referee for the 2006 season.
Steratore has assessed 4.8 penalties per game against the Panthers. No current referee has assessed fewer penalties per game against the Panthers since 2003 (minimum four games worked). Steratore has assessed 17 penalties against the Panthers and 23 against their opponents in these games. The Panthers have won three of the four games in question:
- 2007, Week 5: Panthers 16, Saints 13
- 2007, Week 11: Packers 31, Panthers 17
- 2007, Week 17: Panthers 31, Bucs 23
- 2008, Week 13: Panthers 35, Packers 31
Steratore has assessed 5.5 penalties per game against the Cardinals. That's a relatively low figure. He assessed 22 penalties against Arizona and 25 against their opponents in those games. The Cardinals have won two of the four games in question:
- 2006, Week 4: Falcons 32, Cardinals 10
- 2006, Week 14: Cardinals 27, Seahawks 21
- 2007, Week 4: Cardinals 21, Steelers 14
- 2008, Week 1: Cardinals 23, 49ers 13
Mild weather, light rain in Charlotte
Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
CHARLOTTE -- Light rains are falling at Bank of America Stadium, but temperatures remain in the upper 50s with about 2 hours until kickoff.
I was expecting colder weather. Low temperatures have been adjusted to the mid 40s, up from the low 30s earlier in the week. Wet conditions might hurt the Cardinals' passing game, but these conditions are far from wintry.
Mailbag: Will late start help Cardinals?
Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
Zane from San Jose, Calif., writes: One of the BEST things that has happened for the Cards may go overlooked. They get to play well into the EVENING on Saturday night. As a 20 year coach of elite athletes training for U.S. Olympic teams, I understand the extreme disadvantage that comes with having to travel east, through 3 time zones, and then compete early in the day.
At the highest level of sport, this disadvantage is profound and universal. In the night game, the Cards will be playing the game when their bodies and metabolisms are at their peak. This will significantly help offset the colder game temperature. While this fact is certainly not an automatic predictor for Cards success, e.g., see the "Thanksgiving Day Debacle", I am sure that the players and coaches were pumping their collective fists when they learned about the game time.
[Note most elite level Olympic athletes, who admittedly tend to compete less frequently that pro team athletes, will begin to adapt their training and sleeping schedules for any 2 hour+ time change, 3 to 4 weeks ahead of the competition.]
Mike Sando: I do think the kickoff time is potentially significant and I thank you for shining light on it. I would give the Cardinals less chance if the game kicked off at 11 a.m. MT.
John from Great Falls, Mont., writes: In my opinion Willis got jipped out of a first team All-Pro by Jon Beason. Sure, Jon Beason is good ... but Willis is outstanding and is quite possibly the best 49ers defender since Ronnie Lott. Willis was better in every statistical category except interceptions, and even then Willis returned his on interception for a touchdown! Also, the 49ers do not have the same amount of talent (especially on the defensive line) to keep Willis clean like Beason, who has the advantage of playing behind a line that includes Julius Peppers and Maake Kameaoutu, and so usually Beason is allowed to run free.
Willis, on the other hand, still routinely makes plays all over the field even when routinely having to fight off blockers. Willis also makes way more plays behind the LOS (7 tfl, 1 sack) while Beason does not. So, bottom line: Do you think Willis should have beaten out Beason for the 1st Team All Pro? Or not. I'm just curious about what you think (honestly, I was really hoping that Willis would be the first 49ers defender to make two pro-bowls and two first team all-pros in his first two seasons). Btw, love your blog.
Mike Sando: Thanks, John. I think the Panthers' team success helped put Beason over the top, more than anything Willis or Beason did differently this season. Both are very good young players. One of them enjoyed much more team success. I really think that was the difference.
Referee confidential: Cardinals at Panthers
Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
Tracking referee statistics this season told us which one assessed the most penalties (Ron Winter), which ones suffered the most replay reversals (Bill Leavy) and which ones almost never faced booth-initiated challeenges (Mike Carey, Bill Carollo).
I've also been looking at which referees tend to assess the most and fewest penalties against certain teams.
The chart shows how many penalties per game each current referee has assessed, on average, against the Cardinals and Panthers since 2003. To avoid aberrations, I considered statistics only for referees who worked at least four gam
es involving each team during that span.
Jeff Triplette never works Panthers games because he's from North Carolina. Arizona resident Ed Hochuli rarely works Cardinals games. Al Riveron and Carl Cheffers were first-year referees, so they did not have enough games to qualify.
Using the stated criteria. Peter Morelli has assessed the fewest penalties per game against the Cardinals (4.8). Winter (9.2) and Carollo have assessed the most (9.0).
For the Panthers, Gene Steratore has assessed the fewest penalties per game over that span (4.3), while Hochuli has assessed the most (8.8).

On the air: Cardinals in divisional round
Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
Kenny Albert, Daryl Johnston and Tony Siragusa get the call for Fox when the Cardinals face the Panthers in an NFC divisional playoff game Saturday at Bank of America Stadium. Kickoff is at 8:15 p.m. ET.
The Cardinals are 0-3 when Albert, Johnston and Siragusa work their games this season. Fox's second-ranked crew also worked Arizona games against the Redskins, Giants and Patriots.
CBS and Fox each have seven crews. The higher-ranked crews draw more attractive assignments such as Super Bowls, playoff games and marquee matchups.

Eagles' victory could help Cardinals later
Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
The Cardinals drew the only NFL team with an 8-0 home record this season when the Eagles' victory sent Arizona toward a divisional-round game at Carolina.
If the fourth-seeded Cardinals can find a way to beat the second-seeded Panthers, an Eagles victory over the top-seeded Giants in the other NFC divisional game would send Arizona home for the NFC title game.
The chances of that happening might be remote, but they would have been non-existent if the third-seeded Vikings had defeated the sixth-seeded Eagles in the wild-card round.
Something for Cardinals fans to dream about while enjoying what already qualifies as a historic season for the franchise.
First look: Cardinals-Panthers
Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
No. 4 seed Arizona Cardinals (10-7) at No. 2 seed Carolina Panthers (12-4), Saturday, 8:15 p.m. ET
PHOENIX -- The Panthers might not recognize the Cardinals when Arizona visits Carolina in the divisional round Saturday at 8:15 p.m. ET.
Kurt Warner and the Cardinals' passing game were at the peak of their aerial powers when Carolina overcame a 17-3 deficit to beat Arizona, 27-23, during a Week 8 game at Bank of America Stadium. Warner completed 35 of 49 passes for 381 yards and two touchdowns as Arizona made no apologies for ignoring its then-struggling ground game.
For Arizona, that game marked receiver Anquan Boldin's return from facial injuries and Edgerrin James' final start of the 2008 regular season. Injuries were limiting the team's options at tight end, another reason the Cardinals were committing themselves to a wide-open style of offense featuring three or more wide receivers most of the time.
Expect the Cardinals to bring a different type of team to Carolina for the rematch. We break down some of the differences while taking a closer look at what to expect from Arizona:
Personnel report: Cardinals evolving on offense
Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
PHOENIX -- The Cardinals did something Saturday they hadn't done all season. They did something I hadn't seen from an NFL team in the more than 5,400 offensive plays I've charted over the last few seasons.
What they did during their 30-24 victory over the Falcons -- use two tight ends and three wide receivers in the same personnel group -- might not have much staying power. In theory, the grouping should afford greater perimeter pass protection while still allowing Kurt Warner to choose from three wide receivers. In reality, the Cardinals used the combination three times, all on third down, and the results were ugly: Two incomplete passes and an interception.
The personnel-tracking system I've developed doesn't even account for that personnel grouping. Instead of changing my system to accommodate a personnel combination we might never see again, I eliminated those plays from consideration in the usual Excel file breaking down offensive personnel use from multiple angles. The plays appear in the chart topping this blog entry.
The unexpected emergence of this odd personnel combination plays into a broader theme for the Cardinals. This offense is evolving. The approach Arizona used against the Falcons marked a departure from the way we've seen the Cardinals operate most of the season.
We saw far fewer four-receiver groupings and more two-receiver groupings, with nine running plays from the I-formation and offset-I formation. Two factors are influencing the shift. One, the Cardinals are looking for ways to get the ground game going with Edgerrin James at halfback. Two, the Cardinals have fewer options at receiver when Anquan Boldin isn't healthy.
Boldin's injury situation -- he entered Saturday with a shoulder injury and emerged with a hamstring injury -- could persuade the Cardinals to remain more of a two- and three-receiver team. That style arguably gives the Cardinals their best chance in the playoffs because it facilitates the running game and, by extension, balance.
Arizona used its one-back, three-receiver, one-tight end grouping to great effect against Carolina in Week 8. I'm thinking we'll see that group quite a bit in the playoff rematch.

Yelpy Insights: Yelp Adds Two New Search Filters, Looks To Add More
Is there a battle brewing in the area of searchable local content and reviews? Foursquare has been making some interesting moves in this area, and today Yelp has announced two new search filters that it says will let users more easily find the right local business.
Yelp is calling the new technology "Yelpy Insights." The first two filters are:
- "Liked by Vegetarians" — this lets vegetarians more easily find restaurants that, while not vegetarian or vegan by definition, are still popular with that audience
- "X-Somethings" — this lets searchers find local businesses that are popular with consumes of certain ages
In Yelp's restaurant filters, the "Features" section now includes "Liked by Vegetarians" while, in the "Features" filters on other businesses, there are checkboxes to refine results to businesses liked by 20-somethings, 30-somethings or 40-somethings. (see image at right)
In its announcement, Yelp explained how it's mining the reviews and other customer information to make these search filters work:
"… our Yelp engineers wrote a program that scans the millions of reviews on Yelp and looks for key words and clues about what businesses vegetarians might like and then figure out ways to best surface that information.
We soon discovered the same could be said for other interests and even age groups! For example, some businesses might cater to an older crowd and some a younger one. Yelp users who tell us what year they were born when creating a Yelp profile give us a big hand in determining the right answers so we can show you the best businesses that fit your needs — as well as interests and age.
Foursquare has also been expanding its search filters based on user activity and data from the 1.5 billion check-ins that its users have posted. In January, when Foursquare added its "Explore" search engine to the Foursquare website (it was previously available on mobile only), users gained access to several new filtering options and they could also get search results that were sourced from the words used in Foursquare tips and check-ins.
Yelp has kind of one-upped Foursquare's search here by making a couple popular search options part of the default filters. If response to these first two filters is good, Yelp says it could add more Yelpy Insights in the future.

It should come as no surprise that Pharrell Williams is looking to follow-up on his super successful 2013, with an even better 2014. His first step in that direction is the release of his long-overdue sophomore solo album, G I R L.
Included on the 10-track LP is Academy Award-nominated single "Happy," which was first released as a part of the Despicable Me 2 soundtrack. Special guests are limited to Alicia Keys, Justin Timberlake and Miley Cyrus. In an unprecedented move for a pop album, Williams enlisted prolific film composer Hans Zimmer to assist with the string arrangements. Their collaborative history dates back to the middle of 2013, when Zimmer brought Williams on board to help score "The Amazing Spider-Man 2."
The follow-up to '06's In My Mind is now available for digital purchase via Columbia Records.

Southern rapper Trina has weighed in Lil Kim's beef with Nicki Minaj and explained the impact it is having on the female rap game.
Confused by the cause of the dispute, Trina said femcee unity is key in hip-hop.
"That's crazy. I really don't get it. I don't see where all this is coming from," Miami's Trina told MTV News via e-mail this week about Kim's comments. "[We're] all ladies. Can't we just make music and get our paper and keep it moving?! We all respect Kim. She opened the doors for us females. It's all good — everybody's eating, what's the issue?" Trina also pointed to the dearth of high-profile women in hip-hop as a reason for Kim to fall back with the criticism. "This makes us all look bad. There's barely any female artists as is — we don't need this!" (MTV)
Kim is currently accusing Minaj of taking multiple subliminal shots toward her in the past.
"For the last year, she's been subliminally taking shots at me, subliminally taking shots at the other girls in the industry and I mean come on, we read that interview where she said 'Oh, being that the other rap chicks in the game ain't got sh*t to do right now, when I'm by the pool, they can feed me grapes,' I remember that sh*t," Kim said in an interview. "I keep my ears to the street at all times. Just because I do my Hollywood thing and my Malibu Barbie thing don't mean my ears ain't to the streets at all times. The last thing she did that was very subliminal, 'Oh, did I kill the Queen?' and Puffy is sitting right next to her vibing with that bullsh*t. Come on, we ain't stupid. Let's go all the way back, when she started doing all my songs over. There were certain interviews she was doing and my fans were getting upset, because she was busting shots at me, actually she was throwing pebbles — it's obvious I'm who she wants to be, it's obvious that she likes me and wants to be like me but she's not paying the homage. It's obvious that she likes my music and that she's trying to mimic what I'm doing, she's subliminally busting shots." (This Is 50)
Beginning with small concerts, Kim's initial rants against Minaj were based on a lack of homage being paid toward her.
"Here's my thing, all females that come in the game, we all need to stick together and I always try my best to embrace them but what happens is when you come into the game and realize that I'm not going away and my fans are still here and they can't just step over me. They can't just step on me and then they're kinda like, they get upset and then they don't want to be my friend anymore and I think that's really childish, you know what I'm saying? It's stupid because all I ask for is to be respected — pay homage at the end of the day, a lot of things go on behind the scenes that people don't know about and it will be aired out. You can't hide the truth — when I came out to do this promo tour, it was a reminder of where it came from because if you're gonna swagger jack somebody and take their style, at least pay the respect and the homage…" (Kendra G)
Last year, Trina vouched for Minaj to be considered on MTV's "Hottest in the Game 2009″ Top 10 list.
"She definitely deserves the respect. She doesn't have an album out or sold any records, but it's more so about the passion and the response she gets from the listeners. To see her pave her way from nothing to come up to be a topic or a name. You give that respect to the person coming up making a name for themselves. That's just real talk. I don't pull any punches. People say I give too much credit to people but it's not about that. It's about being real. And being real is giving props when it's due. You can't be hating or mad when you see people doing their thing." (XXL Mag)

Sugar's Amscreen buys Digicom
Lord Sugar's Amscreen, the digital out-of-home network owner, has acquired the sales and marketing operation of digital out-of-home sales house Digicom.
Amscreen: Lord Sugar's ad network acquires Digicom
Digicom was founded two years ago by former CBS Outdoor international chief executive Tom Goddard. Goddard will now move to the role of deputy chairman of Amscreen and will become a shareholder of the business.
Last week Amscreen announced it was to expand its digital signage to BP-owned petrol forecourts in Europe. Amscreen claims this will extend its European audience to 40 million a week.
As part of the acquisition deal Chris Forrester, currently managing director of sales and marketing at Digicom, will take the role of European managing director of sales and marketing at Amscreen.
Since its launch Amscreen has developed digital signage networks in petrol station forecourts, convenience, travel and health environments and claims to broadcast on more than 3,000 screens to a UK audience of 25 million a week.
Goddard said: "There can be no finer endorsement of one's work than when a valued and respected client invites you to join their business. The consolidation of our interests will provide the back-bone of our planned roll out into Europe."
No cash changed hands as part of the deal and all of Digicom's 15-strong team are now employees of Amscreen.
