DeVito: Jenks-Less D-Line Gets into the FlowPosted by on October 30, 2009 – 4:08 pm
Sunday's best on the Left Coast for Mike DeVito came as he was cradling Calvin Pace's second strip sack of the game midway through the third quarter on the Oakland Coliseum grass.
"That's more than I've touched the ball ever," DeVito reflected on this fumble recovery added to the fumble he plucked out of the Texas air at Houston in the season opener. Actually, it's more than most defensive linemen touch the ball. DeVito became the first Jets D-lineman since NT James Reed in 2005 to recover two opponents' fumbles in a season.
DeVito is also playing more than he has in his third year as a Jet, but not the way he wanted to, of course. Everyone along the front is getting more reps with Kris Jenkins gone for the year.
But the Raiders were the first opponents the Jets played without the big man, and that also went swimmingly not far from "The Bay."
"Actually, it flowed very well. Everybody felt well, nobody was really tired, we were rotating well," DeVito said. "We realize without Kris in there, we need to make sure everybody knows what's going on, everybody's firing each other up. It was a lot of fun. It was good to get a good start to it."
Cynics might say that it's easy to have a good day as a defensive line against the NFL's 32nd-ranked offense that controlled the ball for only 52 plays and 24 minutes of clock time. But the Jets needed a shakedown cruise minus Jenkins to get some rhythm and flow in time to take on the Dolphins this weekend.
And maybe they needed to give a little preview of what they can do to anyone in panic mode over not having Big Jenks in the middle of the line the rest of this season.
"It's time for everybody to step up," DeVito said. "Everybody here gets paid. You wouldn't be here if you couldn't do it. We realize we lost Jenkins and he's a playmaker. Now it's on us to make the plays."
That would be recommended against the Miami Wildcat, which clawed the Jets on Monday night three games ago. Here's how the upcoming game looks from DeVito's three-point stance:
"They're a great running team. They have those two great backs and a really great offensive line. They do so many different things, they have so many different runs that it's hard to key in, to know what they're going to do.
"They've a very good team. It's going to be a good challenge for us up front."
Rex Cetera
Rex Ryan's news conference today was Friday-short. On the injury front, the head coach is listing CB Lito Sheppard as doubtful and WRs Jerricho Cotchery, Brad Smith and David Clowney, LB Bart Scott and DE Shaun Ellis as questionable. But as he said Thursday, he repeated today that "I expect everybody to play with the exception of Lito. We'll see what happens with that group tomorrow and Sunday, but I feel good about our guys right now."
Ryan hasn't released his bye week practice schedule yet but he responded to a question that it won't be affected by whether the Jets win or loss against the Dolphins on Sunday.
"You mean if we lose, 'OK, that's it, we're having two-a-days'?" Rex said with a laugh. "You may feel like that after a game, but you've got to look out for your players. Our bye week comes at a perfect time midway through the regular season. And we've had it planned way in advance of this on our schedule."
For those keeping score at home, since 2002 the Jets have gone 2-5 in the game before the bye week and 6-1 in the game after, including 3-0 since 2006. Meanwhile, Baltimore, in the four seasons that Rex was defensive coordinator, was 1-3 the game before its bye weeks from 2005-08 and 3-1 the game after its byes.
Weekly Awards Shutout
This week looked like a good one for Shonn Greene to win a league award, but the voters have spoken and the Jets rookie RB got shut out.
Greene's 19-carry, 144-yard, two-TD showing at Oakland was in the running for both Pepsi Rookie of the Week and FedEx Ground Player of the Week. But today the results of the fan polling were revealed and Minnesota's Percy Harvin took the Pepsi (214 net yards, including an 88-yard kickoff-return TD in the loss to the Steelers while Cedric Benson of the Bengals took the FedEx Ground with 37 rushes for 189 yards and a TD in the win over the Bears.
We're biased but we thought Greene was a shoo-in for the Pepsi after stepping in early for the injured Leon Washington and posting game-leading figures in a big Jets road win.
However, it pays to remind oneself that this game is not about the awards. It's about the victories, about winning each one-game season, as Ryan has put it. And we have a feeling more honors besides Mark Sanchez drinking from the Pepsi chalice will be on their way this season.
Big Weekend of Jets Media
Besides the Jets-Dolphins game, there are a few other Green & White programs on WCBS-TV, Channel 2, in New York this weekend.
On Saturday at 2:30 p.m. we already let you know earlier this week about "Making of the Flight Crew." It's a half-hour show that all about the building of this year's New York Jets cheerleading squad, from auditions through calendar shoot and on into this season.
The on Sunday at 11:30 a.m., it's the latest edition of "Jets Flight Plan." In this show, head coach Rex Ryan discusses the Jets' outstanding performance against the Raiders and their pivotal rematch against the Dolphins. Also, offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer stops by to break down the offense through the first half of the season. The weekly Flight Plan feature takes us all to the lanes, where numerous players go bowling to help support a teammate's charitable foundation.
And don't forget, after watching those shows, to check in with us on newyorkjets.com, to join in our Live in-game chat presided over by Eric Allen and Kyle Richardson and to keep up with my tweets throughout the contest.

Greene should've got the award. So instead of him getting for last week pencil him in for this week. DeVito has really turned into a fine player for the Jets. I think they are all up to the challenge.

Rex hit it right on the head, it is not about personal awards, but about wins! But it is always nice to see the guys win those awards to go along with the wins. Big game coming up, and again I say pass protection is going to be key, also pressure on Henne. I believe those two issues will decide this game. I can't see another 300+ game on the ground. Sanchez will need to do more.

i think all the voters got tired of seeing "the new york jets" getting all the props. we had only 3 draft pics and would of had half of the pepsi awards going to us by week 8. thats called hatin'… dont you think Minnesota' and Percy Harvin should have won the game for to get the award? thats what they said about Sanchez when he was nominated after a loss to the bills…
By Row on Oct 30, 2009 | Reply
We have to blow the center off the line to win this game. Send Pace all day. Gholston needs to be a DE NOW! Henne beat us last time, I don't care what anyone says. He should have been on his back when Ginn had two steps on Revis. Forget the Safety blitz, it's worthless vs the run. Have a nickel back pick the WR and send Revis. Handcuff Sanchez. What is Brad Smith's status? He must play! Go Jets

There is no way we are going to lose to Miami at home, it has to be a total melt down with very poor coaching. The menu for Sunday is fish fry a la GREEN.

LEE COUNTY, Fla. - There were two crashes on I-75 at mile marker 142. The crashes were on a bridge and traffic was moving slowly. Things were back to normal around 5:00 pm.
Deputies said one vehicle on the bridge a vehicle hydroplaned. The second accident was caused by a chain reaction and this one involved a boat which cause a fuel spill.
Weather was a factor for the accidents.
The bridge was closed to remove vehicles and clean up the fuel.

Get on yer boat! by Thoy BradleyWednesday, July 25th, 2012
It doesn't take a lot of brick to build an interesting scene. Thoy Bradley has done a great job here showing the dynamic water of the river as the captain escapes from a crocodile with his precious wine. I really like all the vegetation along the river banks and the water bubbles give a great sense of movement and direction.

Last week I had the pleasure of attending The Altimeter Group's first conference, The Rise of Social Commerce, in Palo Alto, California. This was an amazing event with an outstanding line up of industry leaders and innovators who are changing the way we make buying decisions online.
As I developed and continually updated the conference's website leading up to the event, I knew it would be a heck of a time, and it did not disappoint. Over on the Proof Branding blog I shared daily video recaps with key-takeaways and actionable items, Below is a summary of what I took away from my adventure on the west coast…
In the video below, I introduce The Rise of Social Commerce and pose the following three questions:
1) How are big businesses using social media to their advantage?
2) How does social media redefine "marketing"?
3) How does social media change (and improve) the customer "experience"?
In the video below I summarize three key takeaways from day one of The Rise of Social Commerce.
1) Social media allows businesses to not only provide GOOD customer service, but to DELIGHT customers and create life-long relationships. Use the tools in front of you to your advantage, and focus first on building trust and earning respect well before ever trying to push a sale.
2) Go where your customers are. It seems self explanatory but it is often forgotten. Don't walk into the board room and say "We need to be on Twitter" – instead, think about where your customers are, listen to them, THEN plan a strategy that takes you where you're customers live online.
3) Dell is introducing a 'Social Media Command Center' which will essentially act as a 24/7 outbound call center – a force of people who are 100% committed to genuine (proactive) social media engagement. This is a trend I believe will really catch on in the next 1-2 years as companies realize that to be most effective, social media marketing needs to be timely and engaging.
In this video I wrap up the second and final day of The Rise of Social Commerce with four takeaways.
1) Less is more. Self explanatory but again, often neglected. Don't make it complicated for your customers to navigate your site and complete transactions. Simple and clear navigation with obvious calls to action is the way to go. Look at your own website and count the number of clicks it takes for people to get in touch with you, to see your work, to get back to the home page. For us at Proof, everything is one (maybe two) clicks away.
2) Embrace (and use) negative feedback. Negative feedback can actually be a very positive thing. It shows that you, as a company, are willing to accept now only the love and praise, but the constructive criticism of your products and services. All of this adds to the credibility that you aren't "afraid" to put your product out there – because you believe in it. Also, when faced with negative feedback, think about how you can spin it and transform the negative into a positive experience for your customer.
3) Pay attention to the customer's EMOTIONAL experience when they visit your website. Think about how you can create and tap into the feeling a customer and site visitor should get when clicking through the pages of their site. Create calls to action that catch them during those 'emotional' moments that can lead to profitable transactions.
4) Think big. Start small. Grow fast. Just ask Nicole Crimaldi, this is something I've talked about with her time and time again – and it's important to remember for us idea-crazy, career ADD people. Big ideas are great, but don't start huge – think realistically and start small, but most importantly, don't hesitate to hit the ground running and grow rapidly.
These posts can be seen in their original entirety over on the Proof Branding blog with the following links:
Recently, Courtney Dial, the founder of Pizzazzerie, wrote a great piece on Arment Dietrich's F.A.D.S. titled "Why is Generation Y Not on Twitter". The title alone had me thinking because, it seems like the vast majority of you out there seem to think that, well, everyone is participating in Social Media these days.
They're not.
You and I are in the minority. The active Millennials on Twitter still represent the 'early adopter' phase of an entire generation. Don't believe me? A recent study by Pingdom present some pretty surprising statistics. In short, you and I as twenty-somethings are not, at all, the majorty of the population on the Social Web.
An interesting conversation amongst some friends and acquaintances took place yesterday on Twitter in which we were discussing the value of the popular Social Media "news" site Mashable. Maybe you read Mashable, maybe you don't, Maybe you love it, or maybe you can't stand their intertwining of Social Media news, PR reports, and celebrity gossip. Maybe you think Mr. Cashmore is a sexy dude, or maybe you'd label him as a total d-bag. To each his own.
Let's face it, we all think we are or want to be "right" – even if we won't admit it, even if we're the most open minded person on earth, our own opinion still seems more "right" most of the time, because, well, it is our own. You can argue all day long that you love or hate Mashable – but ultimately there's going to be some people who think it's crap and some who think it's the best thing since sliced bread. There is no right or wrong.
Evolution is inevitable – things change, topics shift, markets and demographics vary. Mashable may be on the decline for people who used to rely on it as a valuable source of online marketing information – but for the millions of other people who want to keep tabs on Ashton Kuther's Twitter following, Mashable is happy to oblige. Somewhere along the way the Mashable crew saw an opportunity to reach new heights, and they have.
What else is Mashable doing? As David Spinks so aptly put during this conversation – Mashable is doing wonders at bridging the gap between our tight-knit community of bloggers and Social Media gurus and the rest of the general population. We're quick to forget there is a whole world out there of people who could care less about blogging and Twitter, but may want to know about the latest Apple release or Google Announcement. A platform like Mashable gives "our" community and the rest of the online demographic a place to come together, for better or for worse.
I hope that's what this blog becomes – a place for online gurus and 'everyday Internet users' to come together and chat about life, careers, Social Media, whatever. I don't want to segment myself too closely to one specific niche or group. My writing, and the writing of most of you out there, can and does apply to a much wider audience than you think. It's just about catching the attention of those who would otherwise overlook your brilliance.
Mashable may be totally useless. You may never read a single post they publish again in you're life. But when you don't – someone else will. We're not going to all find value in the same things. And that's OK – that's what makes reading and writing so much fun – because there's SO much out there, and such a wide spectrum of information to consume and enjoy. At the heart of it all, you should be writing about what you love, about what interests you – and if someone else, even if it's only one out of a hundred, finds value in what you write – isn't that enough? Isn't that what it's all about?
Recently I had the pleasure of attending the two-day MarketingProfs Digital Marketing Mixer in Chicago. Not only did I walk away with some new friends, I took with me a plethora of new ideas and actionable items from the best of the best in the world of blogging and Social Media.
The common theme? Your blog and Social Media presence is an INVESTMENT – An investment that takes patience and perseverance to see real success. It's also an investment with goals and benchmarks that will continually adapt and change.
In a market that is constantly evolving, it's important (although sometimes difficult) to not only maintain a steady pace, but to stay one step ahead of the rest. Here are 15 ideas that I took away and will implement/continue to implement in what I do (and you should too).
Whether your marketing your blog or your business – your Social Media goal must include a value proposition to your followers, friends, and connections. If you aren't sharing anything of value, why bother sharing anything at all? Through becoming a resource of information, whatever your niche may be, you build credibility and validity – giving people a reason to care about what you have to say.
What is the single most important practice in the world of Social Media? LISTENING. To be followed closely by ACTION. Paying attention to your surroundings, listening to conversations, and then jumping into those conversations at the right time is how you establish new connections, generate leads, and build your overall community. Just as listening is nothing without action, your actions will miss the mark if you aren't listening.
Social Media isn't safe, it isn't comfortable – it's unpredictable and constantly changing. Don't fight the change, embrace it and add to it. The best way to keep both yourself and your audience invested and interested is to push boundaries, step out of your comfort zone, and do some things you've never done before. Be bold, be innovative, be unique, and above all, be yourself.
We talk so much about the "giving" of Social Media but it's just as important to remember that there can be just as much "taking". Ask questions and request feedback. Don't talk TO your audience, talk WITH them. Tap into the power of community and use it to your advantage.
Don't kid yourself, you're going to promote yourself and the work you do both on and off-line. But think of Social Media as a conversation tool, not a direct advertising medium. Approach your audience and community as an engaging conversationalist rather than a sales rep. You'll establish brand credibility simply by being "present" in your respective niche.
I get asked all the time about the importance of SEO. Optimizing your site for "organic" search traffic is supremely important to the overall success and growth of your blog. The more people who find you naturally, the less you have to worry about self-promotion. Give your SEO the up-front face time it deserves and watch your community flourish naturally.
Throughout this blog you will hear me preach about "relationship marketing". Relationships are the foundation of any good business. Be developing solid relationships with your audience, you create a community of brand evangelists – people who will promote and market your stuff for you. We're much quicker to believe the opinion of our friends than a representative of the brand/blog/individual promoting themselves.
Especially important for businesses, but equally important for individuals: Set goals for yourself (and be specific). If you don't know where you're going, how will you ever know how to get there? Monitor your analytics, followers, subscribers, new visitors, etc. and set benchmarks to measure success along the way.
If you dig through my archives you'll see that I've stressed the importance of time-management, organization, and scheduling. For your blog and Social Media platform to be effective, you have to be willing to give it the time and attention it deserves. There is no "autopilot" – Effective Social Media management requires hands-on MANAGEMENT.
There are a million people out there blogging about social media, marketing, Generation Y, and so on. What makes my blog (and your blog) unique is the perspective you and I bring to the table. Everything has been talked about by someone, somewhere – but what no one can do is be YOU. Be yourself, bring your own voice and attitude into your writing, and most importantly, don't try to be someone you're not – your audience will see right through you.
While sharing your "human side" is important, your readers (typically) aren't coming to your blog to read about you – instead, they're coming in hopes that you'll provide them with something they can take away and apply to their own lives. In everything you write, no matter how personal it may be, find a way to related it to a wider audience. Apply what you've been through to what others might be going through. Making that personal connection is the key to effective writing.
Provide simple navigation, easy sharing, and CLEARLY STATED CALLS TO ACTION. Give your community the tools, provide them with options, and make it easy for them to interact and engage with your site. The fastest way to lose a member of your community is by confusing them. Provide options while maintaining the KISS (Keep it Simple, Stupid) strategy.
Are short, concise posts or longer, detailed articles more effective? There's no clear answer here and there are pros and cons to both. Regardless, it's important to consider your audience's time and attention. While a shorter post may invoke more real-time response and back and forth discussion, extensive, well researched pieces may hold significant long-term value. There's a time and place for both.
Throughout your blog's tenure, there are going to be ups and downs, flash in the pan successes, and periods of inactivity. You're not going to be at the top of your game 100% of the time. Don't get down – adapt and coordinate with what your analytics and community is telling you. If you're not sure what you're doing wrong, there's no shame in asking. Don't worry about the day-to-day – instead – focus on the big picture
Ultimately – Social Media is an investment. It requires time, commitment, patience, sacrifice, and hard work. If you're not willing to invest the time and effort, maybe Social Media isn't for you. The output is measured by the input you put in. In short, you get what you give.
Remember: You do not have to be on the Social Media bandwagon just to say you are doing it. Focus on the tools that best fit your strategy and goals. It may not be for everyone but there is real value in the medium for anyone who is willing to invest the time toward it's success.

You can run, you can hide, but no matter where you go – the social media revolution will find you. Social media is changing the way we do business, the way we communicate and share ideas, and even the way we think and carry out our everyday lives. Where did you get your news from this morning? TV or your Google Reader? How did you find your job? A classified ad in the newspaper or a job posting on LinkedIn?
Many of you might have run across this video in the past few weeks – but in case you haven't, take four minutes out of your day and give it a watch – some of the information might surprise you. More discussion after the jump.
By 2010 Gen Y will outnumber Baby Boomers – 96% of them have joined a social network
First of all – this number is staggering. It means that virtually every single one of us have rocked out on Myspace, stalked our exes on Facebook, and dabbled in a tweet or two. So often we hear that 'we are the future' – Well, that future is right here, right now. We're it. This is the future our parents always told us about. We represent the movers and shakers of the world, the innovators and thought leaders – a rapidly evolving swarm of tech-savvy tweet-rather-than-text-rather-than-talk individuals. If a business is wondering how to connect and communicate with our demographic, look no further than the social web. We're out there, and we're listening.
80% of Twitter usage is on mobile devices. People update anywhere, anytime. Imagine what that means for bad customer experiences.
Let's remain optimistic: Imagine what it can mean for positive word of mouth. If you're a small business who is just starting out and wondering how you'll ever compete with the corporate big-wigs, turn to social media. It's inexpensive and allows for a direction connection to your consumers.
If you leave a great impression with a client or customer, they have new and innovative communication tools at their disposal to get your name out there. Imagine perfecting a cup of coffee for someone who has 30,000 Twitter followers – who in turn tweets about how amazing your little-known shop is and how everyone should check it out. Talk about awesome PR – a positive review from a 'trusted source' to a huge audience and it cost you nothing!
That's the power of social media that so many companies out there are striving to harness and use to drive their business. Mr. Qualman shares an interesting statistic: 78% of consumers trust peer recommendations – Only 14% trust advertisements. I think we can all agree that genuine feedback from a trusted source is much more influential that a random ad. Companies are taking notice, shifting the bill from traditional mediums to social media platforms and letting their audience of consumers do the selling for them.
I can remember the days before Myspace and Facebook, a time when Youtube ever existed, where Napster was huge and Itunes was dissed because it wasn't free. The funny thing? None of this was that long ago – a matter of a few years – and look at how our society has changed. Technology is the first huge shift in culture that people our age can claim ownership of. The fact that we have lived and breathed this stuff since the beginning is what allows you and me to be considered 'experts'. Social media isn't a fad, it's a fundamental shift in the way we communicate.
Our privacy is out the window – Erik makes a point on his blog that we should "live our online lives like mom is watching – because she probably is". Everyone from Dunkin Donuts to the Doubletree Hotel is out there watching, listening, and observing – waiting for the right time to stage and effective approach and initiate a conversation.
The Social Media Revolution isn't coming – it's already here. It's time to stop asking "how did we get here?" and start thinking about where we're going next.

Picture yourself spending some time with congenial friends, sharing your lives and pictures from your cell phones." They're curious about that cool game, song, movie, camping trip, art show, or other event that fascinated you. You talk about all kinds of stuff, poetry, styles, personal achievements, relationships, and bad days. You can share your inner child, and laugh together. They sympathetically listen to your feelings about serious topics like politics or climate change, even when they don't agree.
Personal validation comes from paying attention to one another, giving more than you get. Everyone respects you and themselves, despite our amazing range of personal tastes and interests. They'll tell you they don't agree with an idea or behavior without implying you're a bad person or somehow deficient. It's an "I'm OK, You're OK" kind of fellowship, where nobody tries to make himself look better by picking on somebody else.

Piratess Lyrics - Okkervil River
Who wrote those lines on the wall? Let's retrace where they scrawled ancient characters. It's 2:00, and you sister's slip falls, and the afternoon crawls across the room and tackles her. I don't think that you would sink that ship that's only passing through, because I don't believe that you might be a murderess. But I saw inside each small, dark eye, as it was turning blue, all the strength inside to do just what the captain says and hang the rest.
Moved by the rhyme in the psalm, we agreed that it was wrong, and to believe in it. Oooh!, swooned the wall all night long. But a lie's a lie, no matter what guy's breath's in it. I don't know that I would go that far down some dark avenue, with a whispering crew of shadows all protecting it. But I saw inside each small white lie, as it was turning true, the ability to do all things expected of it.
Oh, murderess, in the wilderness. With your victims all around you. As their combined love forms a pool your knife's reflected in, now I'm ready, too, with my throat to you. On this mountain. By this moon. And what I want the most to do is prove that I'm not like them.

Sabermetric look at Lou Brock-for-Ernie Broglio trade

As Steve Greenberg detailed Sunday in the Sun-Times, it has been 50 years since the Cubs sent outfielder Lou Brock to the Cardinals for pitcher Ernie Broglio. The trade has endured as a symbol of Cubs futility, with Brock going on to a Hall of Fame career with the Cardinals and the sore-elbowed Broglio winning only seven games with the Cubs before calling it quits in 1966.
According to Baseball-Reference.com, Brock was
41.7 wins above replacement with the Cardinals through 1979 and Broglio was minus-1.6 with the Cubs.
The other pieces of the deal — pitchers Paul Toth and Jack Spring to the Cardinals, outfielder Doug Clemens and pitcher Bobby Shantz to the Cubs — were spare parts with minimal impact.
The question is, would this deal have happened if the teams of 50 years ago had access to modern analytical tools?
Broglio was 28 and coming off an 18-8 season with a 2.99 ERA in 1963. He had gone 21-9 with a 2.74 ERA in 1960, faltered to 9-12, 4.19 in 1961 but came back to
12-9, 3.00 in 1962.
The Cubs, who had gone 82-80 in 1963 to break .500 for the first time since 1946, thought they needed to add pitching to move into contention. It didn't work. They went 76-86 and wouldn't see .500 again until 1967.
Was there any statistical reason to suspect Broglio wasn't quite what his surface numbers suggested? Yes.
By modern metrics, Broglio wasn't as good in 1963 as he was in 1962. The strike zone was expanded by rule in 1963, and the National League ERA dropped from 3.94 to 3.29 — a much steeper dip than Broglio's. NL hitters batted .254 on balls in play against Broglio in 1962 but only .229 in 1963, suggesting a little good fortune.
By WAR, Broglio dipped from 6.2 in 1962 to 3.4 in 1963. Then, with his ERA up to 3.50 in his 11 starts with the Cardinals in 1964, his FIP (fielding independent pitching) rose from 3.70 to 4.05 and he had only a 0.4 WAR to that point.
What about Brock? His batting average had declined from .263 in his first full major-league season in 1962 to .258 in 1963. His walk percentage had dropped from 7.3 percent to 5.7 percent and his extra-base-hit percentage from 8.4 to 6.6.
But when compared to league average, Brock's OPS-plus dropped only from 92 to 91. His WAR increased from 0.9 to 2.6, mainly because he responded to a move from center field to right with a 0.4 defensive WAR, one of his two defensive seasons on the plus side of replacement level.
Modern metrics would have seen the 25-year-old Brock as iffy in June 1964, though he comes off better than in traditional stats. On the other hand, the metrics see a performance drop from Broglio in 1963, which traditional stats see as a big season. There's no way of knowing 50 years later if that would have scrubbed the deal, but at least the red flags would have been raised.

FARMERSBURG, Ind. (AP) - An Indiana special education teacher who said gays have no purpose in life has been suspended.
Superintendent Mark Baker of the Northeast School Corp. in western Indiana's Sullivan County said Wednesday the teacher is on administrative leave out of concern "for the safety and security of everyone in our buildings."
He said the "administration and one school employee in particular" at North Central Junior-Senior High School have received "aggressive email messages."
State police and the local sheriff's department are stationing officers at the Farmersburg school, 75 miles southwest of Indianapolis.
Baker did not identify the teacher, but Diana Medley's comments have circulated widely on social networking sites amid news coverage in nearby Sullivan of a non-school sanctioned prom that would ban gay students.
Medley could not be reached for comment.

Amy Adams tells "Allure" she was "bamboozled" with a girl-on-girl kiss
I remember the first time I saw Amy Adams in a movie. She was among a cast of women who, at the time, were a little more well known in the amazing dark comedy, Drop Dead Gorgeous. (Should we now compare careers: Adams vs. Denise Richards, Kirstie Alley or Brittany Murphy? I still think Allison Janney and Ellen Barkin pull out ahead, though. Kirsten Dunst is wavering, but I'll give her the benefit of the doubt she'll make a good career choice again soon.)
But back to Amy, whose career has taken off since she played the cheerleading-pageant-hopeful with a horny boyfriend in DDG. Since then, she's been up for an Academy Award for playing a suspicious nun in Doubt, Amelia Earhart in Night at the Museum 2, a crime-scene washing sister to Emily Blunt in Sunshine Cleaning, and her newest part in Julie & Julia is alongside Doubt co-star and all-around actress-extraordinaire Meryl Streep.
Yeah, she's pretty much on the right track.
So why is it that the latest I'm hearing about Amy Adams is about her starring role in the straight-to-DVD Cruel Intentions sequel from 2000? Oh, because she happened to kiss a girl in it. And that, according to Fox News, is newsworthy because she was tricked!
The Fox News website quotes from an interview with the actress out of this month's Allure magazine, writing:
One thing Adams was not ready for? Getting kissed by a girl. Apparently the actress had to be tricked into a lesbian kiss on the set of Cruel Intentions 2: Manchester Prep.
"I'm not the first or last who's been bamboozled by a surprise lesbian kiss in a movie, I'm sure," she says.
Gotta love that completely objective Fox News with that little "indeed" stuck in there. Now I haven't read the entire interview with Adams, as the issue does not hit stands until July 21, but I'm pretty sure there's a little context to this statement. I'm also pretty sure that this might be the least exciting part of the interview, considering Amy Adams, the individual, is still pretty new to us as she's a budding star who doesn't like to put herself in the eye of the paparazzi.
As for all of the actresses out there who might feel "bamboozled" into a "surprise lesbian kiss," I'd be really interested to know what the script said before you began shooting, and how you were suddenly talked into such a "surprising" scenario. Did the blocking read "the two women lean, their lips very close"? Or perhaps "the two women are locking parts of their faces that we will not put on paper so that we may later convince you it is needed for the viewer's sake and passionate belivability?"

Recycled but cleaned bricks. Here used are salvaged bricks in building the exterior. Tactic proved to be great investment because it saved lots of money. Why not for those on a low income.
Description: Rado:
Last year I began my saga. I liked your design and copied much of it into my oven. I used salvaged brick for the exterior - different sizes and shapes made it interesting (and slow). Inside I used new firebrick and advised procedures.
I live in Vermont, USA and used slate made sense as a fire proof roofing material with lead flashing and ridge cap. I chose not to cover the chimney - I might use a piece of slate between firings to keep the rain and snow out, we'll see.
Thanks for your help when I got started. Here are some "larger" pictures. I haven't taken any significant food pictures - too hungry I guess. I'll send some soon. We make a lot of roasts - beef, chicken, pork, lamb; stews; baked beans and other vegetable dishes; breads - all types including flat; and various pizzas. Hopefully, I'm going to do sausage and onions this week. Thanks for your response and keep on spreading the good work.

Best Place to Pray, Then Do a Fireball Shot

St. Dorothy Catholic Community Sunday mass at St. Matthew's Tavern
1300 N. Mills Ave., orlandobeergarden.com
All jokes aside, the advent of the St. Dorothy Catholic Community Sunday mass in what used to be a neighborhood gay bar, St. Matthews Tavern, was something of a divine intervention. The bar's new owner, Matthew Fassl, happened to be attending one of the Catholic group's Winter Park meetings at its previous home in a wedding chapel when he heard that the group was about to be displaced. He offered up his watering hole as a place to hold services, and from there, one of Mills Avenue's most striking anomalies was born: a church in a bar. The mix works remarkably well, with Holy Communion preceding the opening of the actual liquor bar by an hour; also, the reclaimed church pews add a certain profundity to the interior decor, even after Jesus has left the building.

Deep Vein Thrombosis
(Thrombophlebitis)En Español (Spanish Version)
Deep vein thrombosis is a blood clot in a vein deep within the body. Veins are blood vessels with a system of valves that helps prevent the blood from flowing backwards. The muscles in the arms and legs contract and help force the blood through the veins back to the heart.
Deposits of red blood cells and clotting elements in the blood can accumulate in a vein and lead to blood clot formation. Clots usually occur in the legs but can occur in other locations. As the clot grows, it blocks blood flow in the affected vein.
Deep Vein Thrombosis
© 2008 Nucleus Medical Art, Inc.
Several factors contribute to clot formation, including:
- Slow blood flow, often due to lying or sitting still for an extended period of time
Pooling of blood in a vein, often due to:
- Immobility
- Medical conditions
- Damage to valves in a vein or pressure on the valves, such as during pregnancy
- Injury to a blood vessel
- Clotting problems (can occur due to aging or disease)
- Catheters placed in a vein
Risk Factors
A risk factor is something that increases your chance of getting a disease or condition.
- Not moving your body
- Hospitalization
- Surgery, especially involving bones or joints
Medical conditions such as:
- Varicose veins
- Cancer
- Heart failure
- Heart attack
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Blood disorders
- Obesity
- History of deep vein thrombosis
- Taking birth control pills or estrogen therapy
- Pregnancy
Symptoms occur when:
- The clot interferes with blood flow in the vein
- Local inflammation occurs
- A clot breaks free and travels to the lungs
Some patients may not experience any symptoms until the clot moves to the lungs, a condition called pulmonary embolism.
Symptoms of deep vein thrombosis may include:
- Pain
- Swelling of a limb
- Tenderness along the vein
- Warmth
- Redness, paleness, or blueness of the skin of the affected limb
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history, and perform a physical exam.
Tests may include:
Duplex venous ultrasound—uses sound waves to detect changes in blood flow
Venography—x-rays taken after dye is injected into a small vein to show areas of normal and abnormal blood flow
Impedance plethysmography—measures changes in blood volume in the veins as a blood pressure cuff wrapped around the thigh is inflated and deflated
Treatment aims to:
- Prevent pulmonary embolism
- Stop the clot from growing
- Dissolve the clot (sometimes)
Treatments include:
Supportive Care
This may include:
- Resting in bed
- Elevating the affected limb above the heart
- Wearing compression stockings as recommended by your doctor
A recent study among 103 patients recently admitted to the hospital with deep venous thrombosis suggested that strict bed rest may not be necessary. In fact, early ambulation (walking) may be beneficial as long as adequate treatment with heparin (see below) and compression stockings are provided. *
Anticoagulant drugs to prevent additional clot formation include:
- Heparin injection—fast-acting drug that prevents more clot formation (given for several days)
- Warfarin (taken by mouth)—slowly prevents more clot formation (usually given for several months)
Fibrinolytic enzymes—helps to dissolve a major clot. These include:
- Streptokinase
- Urokinase
In certain situations, doctors may place a filter in the inferior vena cava, a major vein returning blood from the lower body to the heart. The filter may trap any clots that break loose and travel toward the lungs.
General prevention measures include:
- Not sitting for long periods, such as in a car or airplane or at a computer (get up frequently and move around.)
- Not smoking
If you are admitted to the hospital, talk to your doctor about how to prevent blood clots, such as:
- Getting out of bed and walking as soon as possible during your recovery
If you are restricted to bed:
- Doing range of motion exercises in bed
- Changing your position at least every two hours
- Wearing compression stockings, which promotes venous blood flow
- Taking anticoagulant medication if advised by your doctor
- Using a pneumatic compression device (a device that uses air to compress your legs and help improve venous blood flow)

When he says "I miss you" does he mean "I love you"?
My boyfriend and I have been dating for almost 5 months, and neither of us has dropped the L bomb yet. We live over an hour apart and only get to see each other about twice a week. He tells me all the time that he misses me, and always says "I'll miss you" when he leaves. Once, he even paused in the middle of sex to say "I missed you", which the way he said it sounded like a cloaked "i love you". I found it really sweet at the moment, but afterward I though it was a little odd and wasn't sure how to take it.He's a self-proclaimed emotional guy in general, but is very good at disguising it. I'm not insecure about his feelings for me at all, in fact I'm almost positive we feel the same way. I'm just curious... When guys say "I miss you" all the time is that dude code for "I want to say something I'm not ready to say"?
What's Your Opinion?
Most Helpful Opinion
sounds like it. sounds like he's a bit unsure how you're going to react to the L word, so he's kinda working his way up to it and testing the waters.
I thought maybe it was a testing the waters situation. We took things slow in the beginning and I was the one who finally brought up the commitment thing, which he confessed he was just waiting for me to do... he's obviously a very cautious guy, so this make sense too. :)
maybe he's hoping you'll say it first
What Guys Said 1
What Girls Said 1
Usually "I miss you" just means "I miss you". There's no hidden meaning to it. Guys most of the time say what they mean. Don't try to read into every little thing. It's only been 5 months. Maybe he just needs more time but I don't think I miss you means anything other than I miss you. Take it fir what it is.
Oh, I know. I'm not trying to read into things, really. Like I said, I'm not feeling insecure. I'm just honestly curious about the psychology of guys. :)
- Show Older Hide Older
Yeah now I definitely think he's waiting for me. I actually already decided I was going to say it the next time I see him. Even if he isn't ready I know he has strong feelings and isn't going to run away, so either way it's fine. :)
Aww okay. Goodluck:)

The Dark Knight Nearly Rises In New York City; Ricky Rubio Is Back
The Dark Knight Rises was one of the best movies of the year, and another sequel in the Batman line nearly broke out in MSG last night. Kyrie Irving did Christian Bale justice, carving up the Knicks for a career-high 41 points while donning a memorable black face mask to protect a broken bone in his jaw. Yet the Knicks survived by one when Anderson Varejao's potential game-tying freebie with one second left hit every part of the rim before bouncing out … Read More »

H. H. Lt. General Sheikh Saif bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior led the UAE's delegation to the meeting. Sheikh Saif commended the efforts exerted by the GCC states to further develop the security cooperation in the interest of peoples in the region, recalling the role played by the late Prince Naif bin Abdulaziz. "The GCC security had lost a man in the stature of Prince Naif, who had the set rules to counteract extremism and terrorism," he added. He expressed confidence in HRH Prince Mohammed bin Naif bin Abdul Aziz, Saudi Minister of Interior to bear the responsibilities in the footsteps of the late Prince Naif. Sheikh Saif revealed that the GCC Interior ministers were planning to launch an initiative in the memory of late Prince Naif. WAM/MN

Autoexpress comes in with some exciting confirmation from BMW M GmbH's new managing director Dr. Friedrich Nitschke – the M2 is in the works. But that's not all… a 'revolutionary' new M3 is in development and discussions are underway about a possible Lamborghini Aventador rival supercar!
The M2 will be based off BMW's F22 platform (Autoexpress uses 'F21′) and will be based on the upcoming 2-series / 2 series coupe (BMW has plans to rebadge its small coupe model as 2-series beginning the next generation) due in … CONTINUED
From time to time, BMW trademark filings provide clues on future BMW models. Our latest finding could be related to the recent speculation coming from both Autobild and SCOTT26. BMW is said to be considering launching a 2-series line comprising of the 2-series coupe (F22), the 2-series convertible (F23) and M-variants of these cars. These are essentially the next generation 1-series coupe and convertible, but renamed as the 2-series.
As seen in the screenshots from the German patent office below, BMW has filed "M2″ and "BMW M2″ … CONTINUED
According to a report out of Cardealermagazine, BMW Product Manager James Morrison says that response to the 1M has been greater then was expected and BMW is now looking at the possibility of spin-offs. Should be interesting!
A 1addicts member reports that the official release/reveal date of the hotly anticipated production 1 Series M Coupe will be December 12, 2010! This date was later corroborated by BMW insider Scott. Be sure to tune 12/12/10 for the reveal.
Contrary to earlier reports of a 2,700 unit limit on the 1-series M Coupe, based on new info from insider Scott26, it now appears that BMW will build as many 1M coupes as demand dictates during its production run, which will end in the first quarter of 2012. Yesterday's engine specs image shows a 3/11 date after the 1M coupe engine, which we believe may indicate the start of production as March 2011. If this is the case, the entire 1M coupe production run will span … CONTINUED
We bring confirmation of the 1 series M coupe's power numbers! Seen here is a screenshot of upcoming BMW motors, including the 1M coupe's 340hp motor, and a potential 451hp motor for a US version (or more likely, the next gen F30/F32 M3)!
Autobild is reporting that a carbon fiber roof will be an available option on the upcoming 1 series M coupe, the first we have heard of this. The lack of denial by BMW insider Scott26 who chimed in on the topic makes us think this one potentially has some solid credibility.
David06M3 just returned from a visit to M-Division and brings some 1M news. The 1M will be a limited production of only 2,700 units, come in only 3 colors – Alpine White, Jet Black, Valencia Orange. Manual transmission only has also been confirmed. Image by Gerald Alvarez (of course).
This photo posted by insider Scott26 shows a camera rig being used to shoot the 1M Coupe for a promo spot or commercial. The use of a motorcycle for a camera rig is interesting and we predict that it will result in some very exciting angles and perspectives of the 1M in the resulting video.
BMW CCA is dropping some seriously strong hints that the 1M Coupe may be "sneak peek" introduced at this year's BMW CCA Oktoberfest at Road America in WI. Using words such as "fast, light, nimble car" to refer to the yet unknown car, and drawing references to other M-cars, as well as saying that the head of BMW M GmbH will be in attendance, these could not be stronger hints to a 1M Coupe intro!
We have the latest planned BMW 1M Coupe launch and sale-date schedule for your reference and planning. The 1M Coupe's official launch will take place this December 2010. World premiere at the Detroit NAIAS in January 2011. World press drives in March 2011. European Public Premiere at 2011 Geneva autoshow. European sale date begins Spring 2011. And US sales begin in Summer 2011.
