How can the cost gap between IGCC plants and pulverized coal plants be closed?
The Key to California's Coal Future
world coal resources, so using it makes us less dependent on fossil imports.
Promising, Yet Challenging
Lower-carbon coal technology is on the horizon. However, it will take 15 or 20 years for integrated gas combined-cycle (IGCC) units with carbon capture and geological sequestration to become commonplace. This technology has the potential to capture and sequester up to 90 percent of the carbon-dioxide emissions associated with coal combustion.
As promising as this technology is, existing demonstration sites in Europe and the United States reveal fundamental challenges. Among these are the complexity of IGCC's structure and substantially higher investment costs. Electricity from the first commercial scale IGCC plants will be about 15-20 percent more expensive than electricity from pulverized coal plants, according to estimates.
While smaller IGCC plants have been demonstrated in the United States, combining the technology with geological storage of carbon dioxide has not. A number of important technical and financial issues remain, and it is possible that geo-sequestration will prove too costly or technically infeasible. Since IGCC plants emit less than pulverized coal plants, IGCC plants that are sequestration-ready could be built, with the intention of retrofitting them as sequestration becomes available. It is prudent to plan on it taking another 15 to 20 years for this sequestration technology to become commercially available.
Thus, California finds itself in a difficult situation. Aggressive efficiency and renewables will be insufficient to meet either the growth in electricity demand or state emissions targets. Committing to a fleet of new gas plants would be much more expensive and volatile than new conventional coal plants. IGCC with geological sequestration likely won't be ready for 15 to 20 years. IGCC alone, while reducing emissions, is more expensive than conventional coal, and is still an emerging technology. At best, over the next decade, IGCC will become commercially prevalent, but geosequestration will be perhaps another decade away, and emissions still will be significantly higher than from gas turbines. At worst, some amount of conventional coal will be built to serve California's electricity demand. As a result, California faces a host of challenges to meet its GHG emissions reduction targets.
One Answer
This dilemma can be addressed at least in part by high-quality, project-based reductions. Project-based reductions can be used to mitigate this potential forthcoming pulse of GHG from IGCC or conventional coal. They can serve as a transitional bridge that allows the state to meet its GHG targets while IGCC with geosequestration becomes commercially available. Project funds can be invested in a wide variety of technologies in uncapped sectors, such as transportation, industry, forestry, and agriculture. It is essential that project-based reductions meet high quality standards. They must be real reductions that are additional to business as usual, and they must be quantified and verified using third-party verification.
Project-based reductions are an important component of the Kyoto Protocol, and have been successfully demonstrated in the United States. Among the first organizations to assemble a portfolio of project-based reductions, The Climate Trust got its start in 1997 when the Oregon legislature unanimously passed a law that requires new power plants

Despite all the hoopla that usualy preceeds a Jets - Fins matchup, the biggest news from Jets camp today is who will be the starting quarterback Sunday against the Dolphins. Jets QB Chad Pennington didnt play on Sunday in the loss to the Ravens, but Pennington did say after the game that he could have played.
On the field today, Pennington practiced and looked as close to 100% as possible. Although practice was only open for 30 minutes to media, Penningtons ankle showed no problems during bag drills and during throwing drills Pennington looked sharp as well.
Wednesday was also the first Pennington spoke to the media since last week. Pennington sounded confident that he will be the starter on Sunday, but he knows the final decision is up to head coach Eric Mangini. A source close to the team today confirmed to JI that unless Pennington suffers some type of injury setback, he will resume his starting duties on Sunday.
As for the Jets not creating turnovers and not getting to the quarterback that is topic that they are not worried about. Despite not being able to put any pressure on opposing quarterback the Jets feel confident that they will be able to put pressure on Dolphins QB Trent Green.
Were fine at 0-2. We played two very good teams. Both teams went to the playoffs last year. We got beat by one and lost to another. And thats we stand , said Jets LB Jonathan Vilma.
Mangini says they work on creating turnovers during practice and when they watch film they look at areas of the opponent where they think can get turnovers. If the defense can force opponents into making careless turnovers, a short field can not only give the Jets momentum, but it can also provide a spark to offense.
We work on it all the time, Mangini said. We spend time looking at players that we could target because maybe they dont protect the back of the football, they dont protect the tip of the football or they carry the football away from their body.
"We need to push it to the limit and do whatever we have to do," Jets safety Kerry Rhodes said. "I might add some incentives. If you get the ball out then you get some money. Something to get it going."
Along with not creating turnovers, the Jets are also struggling with the run game. Although the running game looked considerably better against the Ravens than it did against the Patriots, but it can still be better. The Jets were hoping that new off-season acquisition Thomas Jones would revive a running game that was basically non-existent last year.
Through two games so far Jones has 38 carries for only 109 yards despite being slowed down by calf injury he suffered during training camp. His backup Leon Washington, who was non-existent in the running game in Baltimore hasnt been doing much either with the football. He only four carries for 15 yards this season.
Miller Put On Injured Reserve
As previously reported on JI, the Jets lost their only Pro-Bowler from last years team. CB/KR Justin Miller was officially placed on injured reserve on Tuesday because of a knee injury. Miller injured the knee early in the second quarter during the 20-13 loss to the Ravens. RB Leon Washington and WR Brad Smith will handle the return duties in Millers absence. Miller joins former college roommate and Jets WR Chansi Stuckey on the IR. Millers roster spot has not been filled yet, but the spot could go to S Artrell Hawkins, who has visited with the Jets.
Also the Jets signed OL Will Montgomery and released OL Jason Capizzi from the practice squad. Montgomery was released by Carolina earlier in the season. Besides the Jets, Montgomery was also being looked at by the Denver Broncos.
Smiths Happy To Be Back
There is big smile on the face of Jets S Eric Smith. Not only is he taunting rookie CB Darrelle Revis because Smiths alma mater Michigan State beat the University of Pittsburgh last weekend (Revis alma mater), but he is in good spirits because he back on the gridiron.
Smith made a great impression on coach Mangini last season as rookie and was given a decent amount of playing time last year. Coming into camp Smith was going to challenge S Erik Coleman for a starting safety position. But a calf injury suffered early in training camp set Smith back a few steps. Now Smith is healthy and is looking to make an impact in the Jets secondary.
Smith returned to the Jets lineup on Sunday against the Ravens and made his prescence felt. Smith made three tackles and broke up one pass in limited action against the Ravens.
Anytime you have an injury it is a little bit of setback. Now Im trying to move from that and get back to where I was, Smith said. It was good getting out there and playing with the guys. It was getting frustrating sitting out.
Bowens Reunites with Miami
When the Jets and Dolphins take the field Sunday afternoon, Jets LB David Bowens will have one thought and that is to win. If Bowens wants the win, he is going to have to beat really good friends of his. Bowens spent the last six seasons in Miami. During his time in Miami, Bowens developed really good friendships with most of Dolphins, most notably Zach Thomas, Jason Taylor and Vonnie Holliday.
Were 0-2 and need to get a win. It doesnt matter who we play this week, Bowens said. It is. Jason, Vonnie and I have been talking. Jason [Taylor] is pretty fired up. Its going to be fun to go out there and see those guys.
Practice Tidbits
During the 30 minute viewing session of practice, Gang Green showed the media its punt coverage schemes. The only thing of note that happened during that drill was Washington dropped the first punt of day. Washington then ran his penalty lap around the field
On another note during that same drill LB Eric Barton tried playing the wing on the punt return team. Barton was being beat right at the line by CB Drew Coleman and WR Chris Davis. Watching and laughing at him was LB Jonathan Vilma and S Kerry Rhodes.
Jets to honor #80 on Sunday
During halftime of the Jets-Dolphins game, the Jets will hold a halftime ceremony honoring former Jets wide receiver Wayne Chrebet. Chrebet signed with the Jets as a free agent from Hofstra University. Chrebet became one of the franchises most prolific receivers in its history. Over 11 seasons with the Jets he recorded 580 receptions for 7,365 yards and 41 touchdowns.
As a coach, you hope that all of your players have his level of dedication, toughness and professionalism, Mangini said about Chrebet. You are always grateful to have a player of his caliber on your team.

He was talked about as being the #1 prospect in all of baseball if he proved he could stay at SS.

I'm thinking after the Futures Game he heads to Altoona, he doesn't have much else to prove. He has been hammering the ball this season. It is good to see him getting some attention now. I wouldn't be shocked if he performs well in Altoona and is a a consensus top 25 guy headed into next season. He has the potential/talent, and now the elite performance to go with it.Glasnow is probably still a few starts away from being called up based on the Pirates track record with pitching prospects. They won't rush him. Maybe the end of July is a reasonable expectation for when he'll get called up to Altoona. He has been unhittable once again this year, but still struggles with control from time to time.Hanson is just your typical extremely talented guy that needs refining. Switch hitting middle infielders with that speed and pop are very rare. His talent is undeniable, he just needs to work on the finer aspects such as adjustment, focus, etc. to obtain consistency. He'll be fine. With Mercer performing as well as he has it really has bought some time to allow the Pirates to slow his development. Only a good thing.

If he isn't traded I think he'll continue to play RF, but when arriving in Indy at some point next season will begin to play First Base. I think all indications are that he is the Pirates First Basemen of the future. He has the bat and size to stick there. I really hope he is in a Pirate uniform at First Base at some point in 2015/2016.

What impressed me was his defense. He got great breaks on balls and tracked down 2 hard hit drives in the gap. The bat IMO is still needing the seasoning. Maybe he makes it to Toona this year, but I do not think it would hurt him to stay and work on his offensive approach yet. I have heard talk, but does anyone know if they are planning a move to 1st for him? Got to think he remains blocked. Or, maybe he is the first to be dealt when it comes to a big named prospect.

Cook Time:
2 hrs
0 mins
This tabouli is excellent with or without the romaine lettuce. To make this a meal, you could add some chopped grilled chicken. From Epicurious.com, September 2003. Paula Wolfert: "A few years ago, when I was in southeastern Turkey working on my book Mediterranean Grains and Greens, I noticed that the women didn't soak their bulgur in water for some summer preparations. When I asked a Turkish friend about this, she let out a laugh. "In Turkey, no man would marry a woman who just used water! For cold bulgur dishes we always soak in tomato juice, onion juice, or fresh pressed and strained sour grape juice to flavor the bulgur first.""

We had the BEST time! Excellent performances. Funny show - not too over-the-top, just right. Great bartender and drinks, too! We drove a long way to see this - but it was worth it. Nice area - we'd like to check it out more.

Great performance with outstanding musical score. Interaction with the crowd really got people playfully involved. Must have been a hoot and a half to do background research when writing the play!!

Dinner near the Pantages?
My girlfriend and I are goint to the Lion King. Any suggestions for good dining and a cockail? Moderate price range and Japanese, Italian or American would be fine. TIA
Hungry Cat for outstanding cocktails, Pug burger and lobster rolls. They even have premium rye whiskeys. More than anywhere in town. And, you can even walk there.
Magnolia is great but It can get really loud. If you like seafood, Hungry Cat is THE BEST! You may need to make reservations about 4-5 days in advance.
Do a search, b/c someone recently gave Off Vine a bad review. I prefer Bowery Bar to Magnolia, but it gets loud, too. Hollywood and Vine diner is 2 doors down from Pantages. Good food, a little pricey, full bar.
My favorite is Los Balcones de Peru on Vine across from the Arclight. I think it's just beer and wine, tho.
I think some of the restaurants at Hollywood and Highland have a shuttle to the Pantages, but you'd need to check. Koji's Shabu Shabu for Japanese and full bar. Some people like Vert.
hollywood & vine is good and very convenient coz it's just beside the pantages, if you need to crunch time. it's pricey for a diner (though it's an upscale diner where you can have drinks, too), but overall it's not expensive. hungry cat is awesome, but make sure to get reservations, otherwise you might miss your show.
Thanks again for all your suggestions..... we decided on Magnolia. My girlfriend had the pork and I had the ahi tuna. We had the hummus to start. Good food and decent prices.

Come Thanksgiving night, we imagine a lot of people will be thankful for any reason to get out of the house. They could do a lot worse than this typically Houston, all-over-the-map bill assembled by mystical rocker and headliner Tyagaraja. Chasing the turkey will be fab singer-songwriter Chase Hamblin, mad gypsy rockers I Am Mesmer, folk-rock siren Elaine Greer, oddball indie artistes the Manichean and fiddling delight Hilary Sloan. For a dash of exotica, Tyagaraja has invited Mexican/Indian hip-hop crew Kiawitl and Kirtan chanters Jiv Jago (live and direct from the Hare Krishna temple), as well as a host of wellness-related vendors. It's much more than an ordinary rock show, you see. "Our mission is to bring the audience closer to their own humanity," says Tyagaraja. We'll take that over a third piece of pumpkin pie, we suppose.

New Study: Hispanic Business Growth and the Mobile Future (Infographic)
Social Lens Research conducted an in-depth study for Mobile Future to understand whether high mobile adoption among Hispanics translates into increased usage for business. The focus of the Hispanic Business Growth and the Mobile Future study quantified for the first time the type of impact mobile is having on Hispanic-owned business growth and productivity.
In partnership with the United States Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (USHCC) and Latinos in Tech Innovation and Social Media (LATISM), the study surveyed 513 Hispanic small business owners.
The study demonstrates the multitude of ways that Hispanic business owners are turning to mobile to grow and manage their businesses with great results.
Key Findings:
Growth: Mobile usage is translating into business growth (62%) with new clients and more sales. Many participants reported over 20% growth from using mobile technology.
Productivity: Most Hispanic businesses save at least one hour a day due to mobile usage (83%), a majority save significant time: 2-3 hours (39%) or 4+ hours a day (15%).
Top Benefits: Mobile is helping Hispanic businesses respond to customers faster (67%) and reach more customers via mobile optimized listings (38%) and a mobile friendly site (37%).
Key Business Activities: Most businesses use mobile apps to post on social media (82%), calendar (81%) and take notes (71%). Many also use mobile for more complex tasks, such as banking (55%), content creation (51%), purchases (32%) and expense tracking (29%).
Day without Mobile: Most said a day without mobile would impact their business (94%) and nearly 53% said it would be a "major disruption" or "utter catastrophe."
Future Impact: A majority of businesses expect increased benefits from mobile in the future, with 52% expecting a "much bigger" impact.
Additional Mobile Resources Needed: Most Hispanic businesses want additional tools and resources (82%). Mobile marketing know-how (53%) and more useful business apps (43%) top the list of desired tools. Many even want to learn to code mobile apps themselves (38%) .
Stories from participants of the study illustrate the impact mobile is having on everyday business operations. Here are a few examples:
"Our website is mobile-friendly and we are able to communicate with potential clients within minutes – from anywhere in the world. Our team uses mobile devices for research, presentations, menu development and contract negotiations."
Rebecca De Paris, Paris Caterer
"Availability of a personal hotspot is a huge asset as we demonstrate the educational games we develop in many remote areas where Internet access is unreliable. Being able to take pictures, blog and tweet from sites where we are testing increases interest from current and potential users. With staff and customers across the country, mobile technology allows us to meet virtually no matter what hotel room, airport or office we are in at the moment."
Dr. AnnMaria De Mars, The Julia Group
"Mobile has been a cornerstone of our growth, from developing new customer applications to in field order taking and contract deployment. Mobile allows us to proactively deliver our offerings, thus creating a best-in-class user experience."
Jesus Machuca Jr, Listas Locales
Top Takeaways:
High adoption of mobile and social networking tools is a potential key business advantage for Hispanic businesses. The Hispanic communities' willingness, mobile-first tendencies and high adoption rates translate into a business advantage.
Investing in mobile can help Hispanic businesses growth: Adopters of mobile for business see great benefits from more sales, increased productivity and better control. Small business advocates and organizations would benefit from offering more mobile marketing training. In particular, mobile app development trainings will provide a great opportunity to help more Hispanic business owners.
Business solution providers need to think mobile for Hispanic Businesses:. From banking solutions to more apps, increasing mobile capabilities provides a great opportunity to attract and better serve Hispanic business owners.
Reach Hispanic businesses via mobile marketing: Hispanic businesses are actively using social networks and apps. Engaging Hispanic businesses via mobile marketing is a great opportunity to reach and engage this fast growing population.

Recap Post: Multivitamins and Latinos: Heavy Usage with Minimal Doctor Supervision
Social Lens Research recently assisted Consumer Reports en Español and LATISM in a research study about the usage of multivitamins in the Latino community. The findings revealed that Latinos frequently use vitamins and supplements often at the suggestion of a health professional, but with little counseling on potential contraindications of the combination with prescription drugs. And while Latino parents believe in the health benefits of vitamins and supplements for themselves, they are less convinced about using them for their children. As a result, Latino children receive them only intermittently.
Top implications:
- Latinos are heavy users of multivitamins, with 66% taking them at least once a week. Most are taking vitamins for health reasons: 46% to stay healthy in general, 26% to balance diet and 20% to improve physical performance.
- 57% have received a health professional's recommendation to take multivitamins.
- 56% did not discuss with a doctor or pharmacist any potential issues in combining vitamins and supplements with prescription medications.
- Latino children's use of vitamins lags behind the use by Latino adults. Only 56% are receiving multivitamins once a week or more frequently, versus 66% for adults.
- Compared to adults, children are less likely to receive vitamins. 16% of children never receive vitamins compared to 10% of adults.
The study points to the need for Latinos to discuss their multivitamin usage with medical professionals to prevent any potential contraindications with prescription medications. Parents also need to better understand their children's multivitamins needs and be more consistent about giving them to their children.
The 500 study participants were recruited via social networks and Latina influencers. Study participants were 95% women, with 51% having children under 18 years old and 65% speaking mostly or only Spanish at home.

Latinos on the Road: A Social and Mobile Ride (An Infographic)
Social Lens Research and MocoSpace recently teamed up to understand how Latinos—America's fastest-growing, highly mobile and social consumers—are hitting the road!
Survey Results:
To better understand how Latinos plan, manage and share trip experiences, we surveyed 1,106 Latino adults using MocoSpace, a mobile gaming platform with over 7 million unique monthly visitors and an estimated 2.5 million U.S. Hispanic unique monthly visitors. Respondents were 100% U.S. Hispanics, almost equally split by gender, with 60% under 34 years old, and 57% parents.
The study found that during every stage of planning for a road trip, Latinos are using mobile phones and seeking more relevant location-based deals, rewards programs and mobile accessible travel content to assist with their trip planning. The study indicates that among Latinos who are leading the way on mobile adoption, the willingness to use mobile phones for trip planning has outpaced what functionality and content companies offer. Travel planning is likely just one example of the more advanced mobile functionality required to meet the highly mobile Latino consumer's needs.
The Top Opportunities:
Think Latinos are hard to reach? Think again, Latinos are hardly difficult to reach! Marketers need to understand the most effective strategies for engagement.
Below are 6 critical ways to reach Latinos via mobile and social marketing efforts:
1: Mobile Travel Content: Create mobile-friendly travel content that helps Latinos discover your location as a destination. 75% want a better way to find new places to visit on their mobile phones
2: Location-Based Deals: Offer location-based deals via text messages and mobile ads. 69% want text ads and 59% want mobile ads with local deals
3: Mobile-Ready Booking and Planning Capabilities: Make it easier to book and plan trips on-the-go. 61% want an easier way to book hotel rooms. 55% want a better trip planning app.
4: Create Customer Rewards Programs That Are Available and Accessible On-the-Go: Provide a reward program that is easy to access and use on a mobile phone. 57% want rewards and ways to earn points with their favorite brands.
5: Encourage social sharing about your business with rewards, contest and campaigns. 52% share trip plans, 56% share experiences and 72% share pictures after their trips.
6: Family-Friendly Messaging: Consider making your message family-friendly and welcoming to larger travel groups. 42% travel with kids. 33% are traveling with parents.

Reference: Key Latino Stats
Population Growth: According to Neilsen, Latinos are the fastest growing population in the U.S. with a total of 52 million, accounting for 50% of population growth between 2000 and 2011. On the average, Latinos are ten years younger than the general market.
Mobile Adoption: The Pew Research Center reports Latinos are more likely to own cellphones and smartphones at higher rates than the general market: Cellphones: 86% versus 84%; Smartphones: 49% versus 46%
Social Media Usage: Pew also reports that Latinos are more "social", 68% of Latino internet users use social networks versus 58% for general markets.
Travel: Nearly 60% Hispanics ages 18 to 29 years of age have taken a trip within the U.S in the last year or a trip abroad within the last 3 years. Hispanic millennials are also more than twice as likely to travel by car than plane, 57% traveling by car and 25% by plane.

2012 Back-to-School Shopping Trends: The Power of Shopping Hauls
The back to school season is big business with a recent projection of the National Retail Federation expecting spend to reach $80.3 billion. Spending is expected to go up by 14%. However, 85% of families say that the economy will impact how, when and where they shop. Consumers are delaying purchases, seeking online deals and mobile to get the best deal. So it's a season of "doing your homework" to get the best deals and focusing on "needs versus wants". Take a look at the infographic and podcast from National Retail Federation for more details.
I took a quick look at Social Mention to see what is driving the conversation on back-to-school and if their any conversations that were standing out. Beyond a few sponsored campaign, what really stood out was the shopping hauls on youtube.
Haul videos showcase a shoppers purchases in minute detail. Most of the videos feature the where, how much and why of each purchase. These haul videos are not just entertainment but can drive spending. A recent study from Google highlights the importance of video to shopping decisions, especially with millennials :
- 4 in 10 shoppers visited a store online or in-person as a direct result of watching a video online
- Nearly 1 in 3 shoppers use YouTube to shop for apparel
- Thirty-four percent of apparel shoppers are more likely to purchase after viewing an online video ad, versus 16% after watching an ad on TV.
- Millennials (aged 18-34) are twice as likely than other age groups to rely on a video to decide which company to purchase from, and are regularly turning to YouTube for shopping advice.
- There are nearly 600,000 shopping "haul" videos on YouTube, more than 35,000 of which were uploaded within the last month alone
The audiences of back-to-school haul videos are large with the videos reaching millions. The haul video creators offer a mix of over the top shopping voyerism and girl next door how to look good on a budget pragmatism.
Meredith at StilaBabe09 is like the shopping buddy you wish you had as a teen and she has a good eye for deals. She offers her audience a look at what the cool kids might be wearing and how to have fun on a budget with your shopping choices. There is a lot of focus on price and tips on how to use the shopping finds. Her videos are engaging and interactive (i.e., tell me what you think about these shoes?).Channel: StilaBabe09 Views: 14,908,823 Subscribers: 178,153 A recent back to school shopping haul: Beautybaby44 knows how to shop and as a few of the viewiers mentioned in the comments she seems to have some cash to spend. There is a more aspirational versus everyday teen vibe to her videos but she delivers on a lot of trendy finds to her big audience. Channel: Beautybaby44 Views: 107,998,349 Subscribers: 171,653 Her back to school haul video: My top takeaways :
- Hauler videos make it clear that one of the funnest parts of shopping is the sharing part . Tap into the desire to share by making it easy and even rewarding for those that share. Look at things like a leader board and sharing top picks from your community on your social networks.
- Back to school shopping is really a more grown-up version of dress up. Shoppers are playing around with looks and spend a lot of time creating outfits and looks. Look at ways to help shoppers create a personal "look book" and plan out outfits.
- A constant theme in these videos is "it adds pop to a plain outfit". Consider how to deliver "snack size" style tips online and in the store to spur purchase, especially around accessories.
- A good find was often defined as a lot of style for the price versus just being on sale. Well priced and/or aggressively discounting some of the trendy items might be a good way to attract these shoppers.
- Understand that their is a lot of anxiety involved in back to school shopping. A lot of comments involve stress around back to school and request for more videos like what's in your back pack. Create "chill moments' for your shoppers like a chill lounge, "stop stressing" campaign and/or a on the spot mini spa treatment. Offer checklist and other be ready type of info for shoppers.
- Shoppers are sharing what they think is "cool" and giving a lot of feedback on price and quality in these videos. Add watching hauler videos to your insight/marketing departments to do list.
- Your super fans are creating content about you and you need to leverage that. Make to sure to start identifying your fans and look at ways to reward (fashion spreads with top haulers instead of models) and engage them in your creative process and planning.
- Your target is watching hauler videos, these videos are getting major views. Look at adding YouTube campaigns and video ads to your marketing mix.

There is no doubt the Jets and St. Louis Rams will be fired up on Sunday. Both teams will be fighting for playoff spots when the teams meet in St. Louis.
There is no doubt the Jets and St. Louis Rams will be fired up on Sunday. Both teams will be fighting for playoff spots when the teams meet in St. Louis.
I am like a volcano inside, Jets QB Chad Pennington said to describe his emotions. I am really focused on my preparation right now, trying to prepare well. Because once you get in the game on Sunday in a hostile environment, you cant be thinking, you have to be just playing and reacting.
If the Jets win, they are in the playoffs. If the Jets lose, then they have to hope Buffalo loses to Pittsburgh or Denver loses to Indianapolis. The Jets want to take care of business on their own.
We don't want any help, Jets head coach Herman Edwards said. We want to win a game. Charity is for people that need it. We don't need charity. We need to go win. We can do that. We have to do that and that's got to be our mind set. If we don't, we don't deserve to get in.
The Jets know they have to get on the board quickly and often against the Rams.
Were going to have to score some points there's no doubt about that, Edwards said. I doubt very seriously we'll win it 14-10. We're going to have to be in the 20s, maybe in the 30s, but we have got to score points.
The Jets average 147.2 yards a game on the ground and need to run the ball on Sunday. Last week, RB Curtis Martin was held to a season-low 33 yards on 13 carries. On the season, Martin has rushed for a career-best 1,544 yards and 12 touchdowns.
Martin talked about his mental state leading up to Sundays game.
It is almost as if you feel a shift in your mindset, Martin said. You are a little more on edge. You almost feel that postseason feeling rising in you. It tends to make you a little more edgy, a little more intense.
The Jets need to get RB Lamont Jordan involved as well. In Jets victories this year, Jordan has rushed 73 times for 381 yards. In the five losses, he has carried the ball only 16 times for 75 yards.
Jordan talked about the importance of getting the running game going against the Rams.
I have always said this: our offense goes where the run game takes it, Jordan said. If you look at the 200 yard games that we have had and the games that we have won, weve out rushed our opponent. We have controlled the clock and we pretty much just beat defenses up. I think that is our identity.
The Jets should be able to run the ball effectively against the Rams, who have allowed 133.3 yards a game on the ground this year, 27th in the NFL.
WR Justin McCareins recognizes the importance of the offense clicking early. We need to come out with confidence and believe in ourselves and not wait for anything to happen, McCareins said. People need to step up and start making some plays.
This is also a big game for Pennington, who can prove he has the ability to lead his team to victory in a big game. Pennington has thrown for 2,492 yards, 15 touchdowns and nine interceptions this season.
Pennington talked about the importance of getting off to a fast start.
We feel like we need to set the tempo, Pennington We face an explosive offense and the best way to defend them is to keep them off the field. But at the same time, what good teams do, is if it is doesnt go well in the beginning, they dont just fall out and go to the wayside. They find ways to get back into the game and get back into the mix and finish strong. That is what we have to be able to do if things dont go our way right off the bat.
A good match-up should be Rams DE Leonard Little, who has 88 tackles and six sacks, against Jets LT Jason Fabini, who gave up two sacks last week and was called for two penalties.
If the Jets can score early, they can take the crowd out of the game. Edwards talked about how the Jets can take the crowd out of the game.
If you can score early, then the crowd has nothing to cheer about, Edwards said. You have to keep putting points on the board and keep them out of it.
The Rams defense has struggled this season and are ranked 20th in the NFL, giving up 335.3 yards a game. Last season, the Rams had 46 takeaways. This season they are last in the NFL with just 15 takeaways.
To compensate for the poor defense, the Rams offense has had to put up a lot of points every game.
QB Marc Bulger returned this past week from a shoulder injury and completed 20-of-27 passes for 225 yards and a TD as the Rams kept their playoff hopes alive in a 20-7 win over Philadelphia. However, the Eagles played without most of their starters. The fourth-year pro out of West Virginia has done a nice job this year, completing 292-of-446 passes for 3,514 yards, 18 touchdowns and 12 interceptions.
WRs Torry Holt and Issac Bruce may be the best receiving duo in the NFL. Holt has caught 87 passes for 1,256 yards and eight TDs while Bruce has caught 84 passes for 1,206 yards and five touchdowns.
Edwards talked about what makes them so good.
They are very fast on the turf, Edwards said. They stretch you vertically. They can make big plays on you. The quarterback does a good job of fitting the ball in tight. They run real precise routes. They have been in the system, it's a fast-paced system, and you've got to get your hands on them. If you let them run free, they can put up a lot of points, put up a lot of yards.
The Rams have a 1-2 punch at running back with Marshall Faulk and Stephen Jackson. While Faulk is not the same player who led the Rams to the Super Bowl a couple years ago, he is still a solid player who has rushed for 759 yards and three touchdowns this year. The Rams looked to the future in the 2004 NFL Draft and selected RB Steven Jackson from Oregon State. Jackson has lived up to expectations, carrying the ball 124 times for 644 yards and three touchdowns. Against the Eagles on Monday, Jackson rushed for a career-high 148 yards before leaving in the fourth quarter with a knee injury. He partially tore ligaments in his right knee but will play Sunday against the Jets.
The Rams have not been known for their running game and Bulger is glad to have some support on the ground.
The greatest thing for a quarterback is a great running game, Bulger said earlier this week in a conference call with the New York media. Its nice that were getting that going now.
Hes a very good player, Edwards said of Jackson. Hes fast, big and strong.
Vilma talked about Faulk and Jacksons strengths.
I think it is unlike what I have seen in any other team because (they are) total opposites of each other, Vilma said. You have Marshall Faulk, he is a smaller, quicker guy and he can shake you and blow by you and you have Steven Jackson who is a big, burly guy who is just as fast but can run over you.
The Jets defense is sixth in the NFL and will have to be on top of their game on Sunday. The secondary will have to jam the receivers at the line, allowing the defensive line time to pressure Bulger. A key match-up will be the Jets d-line against the Rams banged up offensive line. The Jets have allowed only 15.3 points per game.
St. Louis head coach Mike Martz praised the Jets defense.
On defense they are a lot different than what we have seen before, Martz said. I really do like what they do defensively. With the multiple fronts and a lot of the different things they do, they create a lot of problems for you. They are physical, particularly with their linebackers. They are a championship-type defense.
The Rams have a 12-game home winning streak in December, dating back to 1998 and are 5-2 at the Edward Jones Dome this season.
When you play on the road, you have to be fundamentally sound, Pennington said. You have to be able to deal with other elements such as crowd noise and things of that nature and you cant beat yourself when you play on the road. You make it way too hard when you do that so penalties and turnovers and things we can control as a team, we have to minimize those things.
The Jets never thought they would be in this position as they started the year 5-0. But it comes down to the final game of the regular season and Martin feels the Jets have come too far to not get into the playoffs.
I think because this year it is a matter of the work we put in this year, the way we started out this year, the attitude that we had this year, I feel that we deserve it, Martin said. We deserve to do this for ourselves because we have all worked so hard and put so much effort (into it). I think a lot of people have taken their commitments to the sport of football to another level this year. It would be a shame to have it end on Sunday.
MISCELANEOUS TIDBITS: The Jets announced their team awards today. Martin was named Team MVP for the fourth time in his seven seasons with the Jets. The Dennis Byrd Most Inspirational Player Award went to LB Eric Barton, who leads the team with 115 tackles. The Kyle Clifton Good Guy Award was shared by RT Kareem McKenzie and DT Jason Ferguson. The award recognizes exceptionally consistent willingness, cooperation and professionalism in their every day dealings amongst the various departments within the organization. The Ed Block Courage Award was awarded to Pennington. Since 1984, the award annually honors one player from every NFL team who exemplifies commitment to the principles of sportsmanship and courage. Recipients are selected by a vote of their teammates. And the Marty Lyons Award for Outstanding Community Service was given to McKenzie.
-The Jets are third in the NFL with a +14 takeaway/giveaway ratio.
-The Rams lead the all-time series 8-2 and this will be the first meeting between the teams since St. Louis won 34-14 in 2001.
The Jets are 3-0 against the NFC West this season.
-If the Jets win, besides securing a playoff spot, it would give the Jets 11 victories for only the third time in team history. The other two were in 1968 (11-3) and 1985 (11-5).
-Martin needs one touchdown to establish a Jets record for most touchdowns score in a single-season. Martin has 14 total touchdowns this year. Martin is 47 yards away from passing Eric Dickerson for fifth on the NFL All-Time Rushing List.
INJURY REPORT: As mentioned yesterday, DE John Abraham (knee) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday, but the pass rushing end will not play this Sunday vs. St. Louis. Edwards said Abraham tested his knee this week he ran a little. Earlier this week, Abraham said his goal is to be back for the first playoff game. QB Quincy Carter is the only other player listed on the injury report as he has the flu and is probable. Edwards said Carter practiced today for the first time all week. Edwards said a game-time decision would be made to decide if Carter or Brooks Bollinger is the back-up QB.
-DE John Abraham (knee): Questionable
Game time is at 1:00 p.m. Sunday. Local TV is CBS Channel 2 and local Radio is on 1050 ESPN Radio. Check back often to Jets Insider.com for all the latest Jets/Rams news and reports.

Getting Pregnant
Labor and Delivery
Baby and Beyond
UPDATE-Af showed up last night.im really bummed AGAIN. I am going to try fertil aid for me and my husband. Hopefully that works! I'm about ready to accept the fact that I'm never going to get pregnant.
Ok so here is my story this month. I was using OPK's and the picture uploaded below the top strip is the darkest strip that I got. My period is 3 days late according to my calcuations. I did a OPK this morning and it was the same as the darkest OPK that I got before. I then took a pregnancy test and got the picture below. What do you all think? Should I wait a couple days and test again with a different brand of test? I have felt "weird' for lack of a better word. I have felt like I could cry at the drop of a hat, but that can also be AF symptoms. So I need some advice and help. Thank you.
Last edited by LindsayMarie; 09-25-2012 at 12:37 PM. Reason: Update
I want to say that I feel like I see the faintest hint of a line on the bottom test, but I've been drinking wine this evening so I can't be sure. I think it's totally worth a new test and a few days. KUP!

Hey everyone! I'm sorry I'm behind on my blogs. I've been doing a lot of traveling in support of my album, Kandi Koated, that will be in stores on December 14th. I'm also on tour with Fantasia and Eric Benet. So this week I need to comment on episodes 4, 5, and 6.
The boughetto episode was hilarious! I feel kind of bad for Phaedra this year. In person I think Phaedra is a really cool and a fun person to be around, but I don't think that shows on camera. I know that Peter was heated when Phaedra said she married Apollo because she wanted a "clean man," implying that Peter might not be so clean because of his multiple children. I have to admit I was laughing out loud when Cynthia said, "The only way her man is cleaner than mine is when he's taking showers in prison." That was funny. The whole baby shower thing was comedy to me. I was cracking up at the ballerinas, the waltz that she did with Dwight, the rose bush in her hair, and obviously the damn rhinestone eyelashes she was rocking! All that together was the perfect definition of BOUGHETTO! They need to put that word in Webster's Dictionary. I'm sure plenty of people would use it!
In episode five you got an opportunity to see my show Kandi Koated Nights. It's a late night talk show I do for fun with my friends every hump day, Wednesday at 10pm on www.KandiKoatedNight.com. We talk openly and honestly about sex and relationships. A lot of people are uncomfortable talking about sex. I am not one of those people. I noticed a lot of people were really thrown off by the fact that my Mom and I can talk about sex and even discuss dildos. Well, I personally think it's great that my Mom and I have this closeness, and we can talk about anything. Some of you all should try it! Anyway, I discussed the controversial sugar trick! It works! I've told plenty of people about it, and they all report back after trying it with great results! I'm not gonna break down the directions in this blog. Start watching Kandi Koated Nights if you want some HOT tips for the bedroom!
When Nene came to the dinner at Cynthia's with the new and improved nose, I was caught off guard. Nobody told me that she had gone under the knife. At first no one was even saying anything about it, and I was looking around thinking, "Why is nobody saying anything? Don't they don't see it?" I didn't feel like I should say anything, because she and I aren't close, and it's not my business. But I was so happy when Sheree said addressed it, because I couldn't take it anymore. It was the elephant in the room. I thought it was really cool that my Mom and NeNe bonded during the conversation about NeNe's marriage. My Mom really didn't like Nene ever since last year, when Nene and I got into it. So it was good that they had a break through, because that could have easily gone in a different direction and I'm over the drama. One more thing about the dinner. When Nene said she doesn't do oral sex and all that extra stuff in the bed room, and Peter said that's why they might be having problems in their marriage, I agree! I'm not married, and I know I've got a lot to learn, but what I do know is, "What you won't do, another will!" You're supposed to keep the bedroom exciting! Who wants to be married to someone for 14 years and be unsatisfied. That SUCKS! I wouldn't. I'm not saying that's the whole problem in their situation, because I'm sure it's not, but I'm sure it's not helping the relationship either. Just sayin'.

When we think of Cara Delevingne's wardrobe the first things that spring to mind are beanies, onesies and bad-ass trainers, but the world-famous supermodel is steadily becoming a devotee of fine tailoring. This week she continued to fly the flag for the female tux when she attended Burberry's Art of the Trench event in Shanghai wearing a white two-piece from the label's Spring Summer 2013 collection. There's no doubt that the Burbs ambassador did the ensemble justice, and, teaming the tailoring with a pair of vertiginous Burberry heels and very little underneath, Cara gave a sexy nod to menswear while remaining feminine and chic.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - A federal prosecutor is warning parents not to try a new scheme for dodging vaccines: sending items infected with chickenpox through the mail.
Jerry Martin, the U.S. attorney in Nashville, pointed out it's illegal and unsafe to mail contagious items. Martin told The Associated Press he decided to speak out after WSMV-TV interviewed him about virus exchanges in Tennessee.
Parents trying to expose children to chickenpox are using social media sites like Facebook to find sources of the virus. WSMV-TV reported a Nashville woman was charging $50 to overnight lollipops she claimed were sucked on by children infected with the virus (http://bit.ly/uksLFH ).
Isaac Thomsen, a pediatric infectious disease specialist at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital, said such items likely wouldn't transmit chicken pox but could cause more dangerous infections, including hepatitis.
The Associated Press
First, I do not approve of handling the symptoms of "chickenpox" in the manner used by those people on Facebook. But WHO is really responsible? Those that refuse to educate the public about viable alternatives that make vaccines obsolete. WHO are the main ones that fail at reporting the news on these viable alternatives? The mainstream media, of course, that pumps pro-vaccine propaganda on a daily basis. There has been an outstanding reward of several million dollars in gold offered to challenge pro-vaccine advocates and vaccine advocates that are just dumbed-down by so-called experts and mainstream media propaganda. The reward is over three years old and not one vaccine proponent has tried to collect the millions in gold! The mainstream media refuses to publish ground-breaking health and science breakthroughs that render vaccines obsolete. So the moot vaccine debate rages on, people die for lack of knowledge and vaccine makers fill their pockets with millions of dollars as death-dealers.
What about this blatant hypocrisy from the pro-vaccine zombies?
Your vaccinated kids are shedding their live viruses all over my unvaccinated kids: Here's info direct from the label of Rota Teq Rotavirus vaccine: http://www.merck.com/product/usa/pi_circulars/r/rotateq/rotateq_pi.pdf RotaTeq is a live, oral pentavalent vaccine that contains 5 live reassortant rotaviruses. In phase 3 studies, shedding was observed as early as 1 day and as late as 15 days after a dose. Caution is advised when considering whether to administer RotaTeq to individuals with immunodeficient close contacts such as: Individuals with malignancies or who are otherwise immunocompromised; or Individuals receiving immunosuppressive therapy. Can potentially be transmitted to persons who have contact with the vaccine. The potential risk of transmission of vaccine virus should be weighed against the risk of acquiring and transmitting natural rotavirus.
Did you all know the federal government is sending anthrax, smallpox and various other extremely dangerous pathogens via Fed Ex and other package services. Oh, and these trucks crash and can spread these diseases: "FedEx Truck Carrying Microbes Crashes In Winnipeg" - http://www.rense.com/general63/microb.htm
Many of these vaccines have bovine blood or serum that has been found to have bovine syphillis!
The main thing to note is the vaccine debate is moot - THEY ARE OBSOLETE! The people are not being told about the amazing alternatives because the money from advertising dollars of hospitals using the drugs and the pharmaceutical companies making them are too good to turn down. And besides, population reduction is part of the governments Global 2000 plan, ergo the vaccines do a great job at fulfilling the depopulation agenda that is a documented fact.
Talking about "dumb", the vaccine takers are getting more inept by the day, and the innocent little children that have no choice pay the price of their ignorance and stupidity.

It's been one of the worst-kept secrets in Charlottesville for months. And on Tuesday, Virginia finally confirmed the school's two game basketball series with Virginia Commonwealth University.

Virginia also confirmed the team's ACC opponents for the 2013-14 basketball season. the 18-game conference schedule includes four against ACC newcomers Notre Dame, Pittsburgh, and Syracuse.
Notre Dame is one of four programs the Cavaliers will play home-and-home series against this season, along with Florida State, Maryland, and Virginia Tech. Virginia will host Syracuse and travel to Pittsburgh.

hello, you could choose bladed armor instead of necrosis, you don't need epidemic as the current disease duration is long enough for a godo rotation.
hello, you could choose bladed armor instead of necrosis, you don't need epidemic as the current disease duration is long enough for a godo rotation.
What build are you talking about? And longer dieases means more abilitys before you renew them.
As dps bladed barrier is useless.
can anyone tell me if the builds are fine and which 1 is better?
thanks you.
Both dps specs are not very good (hope you dont mine but there terrible.) Alot of the talents are misplaced. Go for a traditional build first until you get a handle on the talents and the synergy between them.
For your tanking spec i would go with the second one but replace the 5 points from necrosis and put it 4 into killing machine and 1 into frost strike.
Just my 2 cents
1st, thanks for your comment and i'm glad you said it.
2nd, why to spend point on frost strike? i can use deathcoil instead, and killing machine realy worth it?
i picked necrosis becuz i have increase of shadow dmg and most of melee dps is melee attacks, that mean a good boost to the dps, and the unhoyl blight idea is good?
Frost strike is the best runic dump in game at the moment. It will add alot to your dps. If you go frost for tanking then you buff frost strike alot and its worth the one point. Killing macheine is deffiatley worth it with howling blast. Best way to get aggro back quick if an add gets free in aoe pulls.
Also as frost you wont be using meele that much so five points aint worth it
Here's a Tank build.
The World of Warcraft Armory
Was trying out Runic power mastery, putting those 2 points into icy reach is good too.
Last edited by Soulfreeze; 04-26-2009 at 12:05 AM.
There are a few misplaced points. Lichborne is no good now for a pve tank and bladed armor is to good of a tps boost to miss. If you raid then going for Imp it might be good but i wouldnt worry about it until you get more comfortable with frost tanking. URL="http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#j0EMZGxx0AbI0c0iost0g:aTwMmV"]http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#j0EMZGxx0AbI0c0iost0g:aTwMmV[/URL]
Try this build. You can mess around with the glyphs. There up to you.
There really isn't a set rotation to tanking. Manage your cooldowns and the rune cds. Prioritize HB (on aoe pulls) and oblit (on single target) and keeping up your diseases. If you cant get the HB glyph then get the disease glyph and refresh the diseases with pest.
For your single target use oblit with diseases up and HB when rime procs. Thats the basics
few little improves and those the glyphes, what do you say?
It will work. You just need to try around with a few different specs and see what you like. You hit all the key frost talents and looks solid to me. Its your chacter so have fun with it. Use the talents how you like. I know for kicks i got Hungering cold so i could freeze mobs. Play it how you like but from a practical stand point you hit all the talents you really need.
hello, try my frost tanking build, i have no problem outtps-ing my guild tankies with around 1k.. also i can fight the OS with 2 drakes up keeping almost all the elementals and whelps on me..
good luck.
Thx for your help about my build, and Hexen could you give me the build or I should guess what it is?
For dps or tank?
As tank builds there fairly bad because your missing the 5/5/5 talents.
For blood tanking you focus alot on self healing so imp blood pres is good as well as imp rune tap. Also DRW does nothing for a tank except a lil increase in dps. DRW has its own threat table that doesnt transfer over to you. Also as a blood tank you use heart strike so going into frost for ahnialtaion wont do you any good.
For unholy Your missing the 5/5/5 aswell. Also gargoyle has its own threat table like DRW so not the best talent point
Nope, it's dps build. And I took Ahnialtaion because OB is best frost/unholy hit without talents, then it does the job much better then death strike.
Would you mind telling me what are the builds?
Death strike is better than oblit now so you should choose imp DS and the DS glyph, oblit doesn't benefit from might of mograine anymore so it pretty much sucks.
Also DS is better because you have specced death rune mastery and it'll proc death runes for you.
This (or something close to it) is probably the best blood dps spec right now, alot of people prefer points in epidemic but I guess thats preference.
if you really want annihilation in your build this would be a better spec.

'Out with the old and in with the new' is what Greene County teachers and students are saying needs to happen with their battered and outdated textbooks.
"We have a teacher who graduated six years ago and a student showed him his name in the book he's teaching from," said Cyndy Sprinkle, a teacher at William Monroe High School. "That speaks volumes as to how old these text books are."
But despite the poor conditions of textbooks, teachers say they are making due, even though better books would definitely make a difference. "We do the best we can, but I think we have great students in Greene County, and I think they deserve quality books."
Students agree with Sprinkler. "I'm a senior, so new books won't benefit me, but I have younger cousins who won't graduate until 2010 and 2012," said Michelle Hartley, a student at William Monroe High School. "It would be nice for them to have better books."
'The Language of Literature' is one of the new books that teachers are trying to get in their classrooms, and Superintendent Ray Dingledine says he and other school officials are working to make that happen.
"This is definitely a priority for us and we are gong to do everything possible to ensure the students have what they need," said Dingledine. "This is very important to us."

Iraqi army retakes western town seized by gunmen
By QASSIM ABDUL-ZAHRA Associated Press January 15, 2014 1:12PM
Article Extras
BAGHDAD (AP) — Iraqi officials say army troops backed by airstrikes have retaken a town that had been seized by al-Qaida linked militants in a mainly Sunni area west of Baghdad.
Senior military officials say Wednesday's counterattack came a day after heavily armed gunmen surrounded the main police station in Saqlawiya and forced all the policemen to relinquish their weapons and leave. Militants then gained control of the rest of the Anbar province town.
Security forces then launched airstrikes against the gunmen, who fled, allowing Iraqi troops to enter the town later Wednesday.
The army and allied tribesmen have been fighting al-Qaida's Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant group around Anbar's provincial capital, Ramadi, and the nearby city of Fallujah.
