DULUTH -- Duluth football has waited a long time to beat up on some team like this.
Quarterback Anfornee Stewart threw for five touchdown passes and wide receiver Myles Campbell scored three times in a 55-21 thumping of Northview. It's wins like these that make the players go nuts and the historians go digging in their books.
"I don't know what to say about that quarter and Myles Campbell," said head coach Corey Jarvis. "They are kind of good."
"We had a lot of fun tonight," Stewart said, making the understatement of the night. "I had four touchdown passes last year, but other than that five is the new number (for me)."
It was the highest point total for a Duluth (2-0) team since a 68-0 win over Loganville in 1985. It's also the Wildcats' largest margin of victory since they beat Meadowcreek 45-6 in 2002.
It wasn't immediately clear that Duluth would roll. The Titans (1-1) started the game with a 12-play drive on the heels of running QB Evan Jacks. But the field goal attempt was blocked. From there Duluth was off to the races.
And this Wildcat team doesn't take long.
Only the last scoring drive took longer than two minutes.
It started when Stewart finished a three-play drive that took hit 82 seconds when he hit Nick Whitaker on a 23-yard pass for the first score. Myles Campbell ran 47 yards for the second TD, followed by a six-yard TD pass from Stewart to Michael Randle. Those two hooked up for the next score to make it 28-14 with 3:52 in the second quarter.
Yes, this was the trend.
The Wildcats second half scores came on plays of 39, 5, 79, and 7 yards. And that 79-yarder might have been the most exciting play of the season.
Campbell fielded a punt on his own 21-yard line, ran to his left and appeared to be stuck at the 30. He slipped out of a tackle and ran the other way.
"I just saw him coming and broke a tackle," Campbell said. "I just took it to the house."
But not without help from Ahmad Muhammad. He threw a helmet-removing block that opened the way for Campbell. He dodged two more tacklers before capping off his hat trick with one rushing, receiving and return TD.
"I was just running," Campbell said. "I heard about the block when I got to the sidelines."
The Wildcats finished with 459 yards of offense. Stewart was 13 of 19 passing for 221 yards. He ran for 46 yards. Brandon Brinson added 81 rushing yards. Campbell had 143 total yards (96 receiving).
But its not all peaches-and-cream for Duluth. Its defense had a hard time containing Northview QB Evan Jacks. They missed several tackles while Jacks ran for 160 yards and threw for 148.
"We spent too much time working on tackling to do what we did tonight," said Jarvis. "They already know what is going to happen on Labor Day at practice."
Duluth will face Alpharetta next. They lost last year 44-17. It has been 26 years since a Duluth team started 3-0.
"They've got it coming," said Stewart. "There is some payback that is due."
Maybe they are up to something.

Very nice hostel! Really enjoyed our stay there. The guy that works there is very nice and always making sure you are enjoying your stay. The only bad thing I could say was that it was difficult to reach it if you are doing the kerry way in the sense that you have to walk on the highway for a couple of miles to get to it or hitch a ride, so beat that in mind. Also, it would be nice to get some info on how best to get to it if you are doing the kerry way. We guessed and luckily we were right.

Ben Smith has his name on the Stanley Cup, but he doesn't yet have a permanent spot in the Blackhawks lineup. He made his season debut Saturday night against the Tampa Bay Lightning, taking Jimmy Hayes' spot at right wing on the third line.
Smith and Hayes sit next to each in the dressing room, but each player shrugged off the awkwardness.
"It's part of the sport, part of the job," Smith said. You're always competing against a lot of guys, it's not just going to be training camp. It's going to continue well on through the year. We just have to play our best every day and hope that the opportunities keep coming."
Said Hayes: "Nothing's guaranteed here. We're all fighting for the same thing."
New faces
Five of the Hawks' first six games this season are against Eastern Conference teams they haven't seen since at least the 2011-12 season. After playing exclusively Western Conference teams during the lockout-shortened season, teams will play a home-and-home against every team from the other conference.
It had been nearly two years since the Hawks faced the Lightning, and coach Joel Quenneville said the new opponents could break up the monotony of a long season.
"I think players like playing some guy they don't know much about and finding out as they go along," he said.
Quenneville wasn't concerned that the lack of familiarity could make things a little more difficult on the coaching staff.
"I think everybody plays comparably the same way," he said. "It's more important how we play."
Handzus holding up
Michal Handzus, who missed part of Tuesday's opener with an undisclosed injury, was in the lineup Saturday. Handzus played with a broken wrist and a torn MCL during the Stanley Cup Final, and playing through pain has become part of the process for the 37-year-old center.
"Honestly, I think it wasn't that bad," Handzus said of his playoff heroics. "It was such an exciting time for everyone from our team, so you don't pay attention too much."

Windows Explorer repeatedly crashing
My Windows Explorer keep crashing repeatedly and telling me that Waiting for Windows Explorer to respond and then that Windows Explorer has crashed and needs to be restarted. It then proceeds to restart itself but after a few minutes the problem happens again and continues repeating itself. My computer is also extremely slow and unresponsive. The problem persists in Safe Mode also.
I have System Restored the computer to a previous time when it was working correctly however the problem still occurs when I reboot the computer.
The problem occurs when I log into my user account, but when I log into my dad's account it doesn't happen and the computer runs normally.
How can I determine the cause of the problem and how can I fix it?
Any time spent on this matter will be greatly appreciated.

1994 Chevrolet Silverado Sportside Pickup
By Professional Test Driver
Get a New Car Price Quote
Search Used Vehicle Inventory
While vans, minivans, sport Utilities and smaller-size pickups have spurred soaring light-truck sales, the backbone of the market remains in the full-size pickup arena. Since the '60s and perhaps even earlier, the full-size segment has been a battleground between Ford with its F-Series trucks and Chevrolet with what it now calls its K Series. The two have been playing "Can You Top This?" for years. Chevrolet dominated the market through the '70s, but Ford has made continuing progress, finally finishing ahead of Chevy in 1993 sales.
Chevrolet and its sister-GMC full-size pickups (called Sierras) were restyled for the 1993 model year. Like most players in the light-truck field, Chevrolet's major activity in full-size pickups for the 1994 model year involves safety features to comply with federal standards that will come into play in the next few years. The 1994 pickups now boast steel side-guard door beams and center high-mounted stoplights. Chevrolet also added two engine variations to its offerings, which now include a V6, two V8s and three diesel V8s.
Variety is a must for success in the full-size segment. Chevrolet offers many combinations of body styles, load capacities, interior trim packages and power trains. We chose to test a 1994 Extended Cab Sportside Silverado, Pickup. In the 4x2 configuration, it was well-equipped with options such as high-back reclining front bucket seats, a 5.7-liter V8, air conditioning, four-speed automatic transmission and more. With a base price of $16,266, our truck dressed out at a final sticker $22,457-about that of a decently equipped full-size sedan.

Bitcoin's so over. We're mining Primeco... Oh SNAP, my box is a ZOMBIE!
Security experts have warned crypto-currency fans of malware hidden in certain miners for Bitcoin-alike cryptocurrency Primecoin. The malicious Primecoin miners were found on various Chinese sites and torrents by Panda Security researcher Mehrdad Yazdizadeh. "Primecoin miners are written in Python and other scripting languages …
Plot for a 90's scifi?
Is it me or is it looking like Chinese script-kiddies are going to rule the world?
and more "It replicates through the file systems of the infected machine and disables any antivirus programs it finds, according to the report."
Starring Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves?
Re: Plot for a 90's scifi?
Luckily, I've disconnected my 2.4 kilobaud modem from it's coupler.
Not even sure what this means:
"On execution, the malware will inject the SQL server to cmd.exe, svchost.exe, explorer.exe and similar processes to hide itself as rootkits."
Someone care to explain?
Re: Erm
Sounds like the invented tech-speak you hear on TV. That'll be on a web site with IP 350.299.1000.290
Re: Erm
> "On execution, the malware will inject the SQL server to cmd.exe, svchost.exe, explorer.exe and similar processes to hide itself as rootkits."
I think it is like setting them up the bomb
Re: Erm
Someone care to explain?
A rough translation is "it's all far too complicated for you to understand so buy our software to be safe"
Re: Erm
I haven't a clue what I'm talking about, so I will string together some phrases which I believe are pertinent to the issue and hope that it makes sense.
Re: Erm
Not sure, closest thing I can come up with is it modifies the cmd.exe etc files to contain code that hosts an SQL Server. These run in the background, nigh-undetectable as every Windows systems runs several svchosts and can run several Explorers (indeed one's running all the time as the Shell). Presumably it's not a full SQL Server implementation but something more akin to SQLLite.
In this event, it seems like it'd be a piece of piss to determine if you were infected simply by comparing file sizes in Explorer (or, more reliably, doing a full binary comparison).
Like I say. No idea. But that's how I read it. Alternatively, as the others say, it's just them creating a GUI in Visual Basic to track the IP addresses- because RISC is good.
I have been looking into ...
.... currency mining to see what I could get out of the old desktops and servers I have lying around. Windows is on the majority of machines I own as I enjoy PC gaming. But even I and some of the most die hard fans of Windows would know that for a process so valuable, it should not be run on an OS which is still a high priority target for any miscreant, without researching how to lock it down so tightly it would Linus hard. Even worse is what the hell are you doing downloading the software from such sites?
I'm going to be trying it with both a linux machine and a windows machine and already have an old reliable mint laptop I can use for the wallet. The more I read about mining it seems that a number of people involved just installed it on a whim and didn't bother doing any research.
Re: I have been looking into ...
Unless they have kick ass ATI graphics card it is a wasted effort . The difficulty is so high on Bitcoin only ASIC based machines are feasible. Other Altcoins mostly rely on Scrypt which needs GPU's to be useful.
Primecoin is an exception as it can be mined by CPU's only at the moment but it is near worthless and will likely be buried under all the other clone coins. Also you need a lot of CPU power to be remotely profitable which is why its a botnet owners wet dream.
Re: I have been looking into ...
This, basically.
Litecoin is the second largest cryptocurrency by market cap, and mining it is still somewhat viable using GPUs, but they absolutely have to be AMD ones, and as high end as possible. Other altcoins also tend to use Scrypt like Litecoin, and thus will still kick arse on AMD architecture. NVIDIA comes nowhere close for this particular purpose.
Re: I have been looking into ...
I read somewhere that you can only pay for the electricity used if you have a seriously efficient data centre somewhere cold so you don't need air-con. Any thoughts?
Re: I have been looking into ...
All quite handy tips, thanks guys. As an AMD and ATI user for a number of years I have a few kicking around from x850's all the way up to 7 series. This won't be a serious 'This will be a major investment and needs instant return' thing for me, just a 'I have some kit so will dip my toe in'.
As for the datacentre, I have a basement I can run them from which even in summer never gets above 18 celcius.
If I manage to get even 1 coin after a few months that would be used for the newer mining toys (if it gets that far) leaving the current kit good for the other currencies that still use GPU.
Magical Internet Money
I wrote a Google Chrome plugin that changes the word "Bitcoin" on every site you browse to "Magical Internet Money". Makes bitcoin related websites and news articles a lot funnier:
Scrypt mining is very much profitable btw. I'm buying and buying hardware for more and more hashing power. Malware casts a bad light on crypto-currencies, true, but we are in the process of "forging" a weapon against that ;)
Re: Magical Internet Money
Single AMD 7970 GPU costs approx £220 , Generates approx 650kH/sec
At current difficulty with a single GPU mining Litecoin you'll earn $3.88 / £2.36 a day
Cost for running each GPU ( assume 250w ) = 6Kwh @ .15p p/kWh = .90p running costs
Pool fees = 1%
Total Profit single GPU = £1.46 per day. Then you just need 150 days ( at current prices ) to pay back the cost of the card ( this is assuming your motherboard , 750w PSU , RAM and CPU were free )
If you get free power ( Cough ) then you'll get your money back quicker.
Note , this assumes the difficulty doesn't increase , which it does over time and thus if the price remained static ( circa $24 per litecoin ) and the difficulty increased you'll maybe break even after six months.
The speculation comes 'if' the price of a litecoin doubles in price.
Yes , you can make money mining alt-coins , especially if you have free power and good cooling but if you're going to speculate , save yourself the hassle and just buy a Bitcoin and wait.
This is coming from a man who's running some pretty serious mining H/W and in scale, because scale matters along with institutional funding...
Just putting the mining profitability into perspective.
Re: Magical Internet Money
any idea of the equivalent profit to be made by buying £220 of bitcoin now and waiting 6 months?
Re: Magical Internet Money
You could lose 50-98% of your investment or 1 BTC could go to 40k. No one knows. Its all just speculation. Play with money you can afford to lose and wait. If adoption rates continue to rise and .. the big if... there isn't a massive US clampdown like there was in china mid December. . It 'could' be worth buying a bit and waiting. Best time to buy is immediately after some bad news. Proceed with caution.
I work in VC and the current thinking is that between 0.5-1% of your investment should be in BTC. However. . If you have credit card debt.. pay that off first.. there is no easy money
Re: Magical Internet Money
@Andy Roid
I agree that mining litecoin is practically improfitable. I'm using middlecoin.com to mine various crypt-currencies and auto-sell them for bitcoin. I make around 0.01 bitcoin per day if I only run the gaming PC while I am at work and have it either off when sleeping or in use for gaming the rest of the day. Thats around $8 per day at electricity costs of roughly $4 per day. I am using 2 R9 290X cards for mining scrypt... Probably will purchase another couple of R9 290s for scrypt mining, because it really is profitable, and I'm living in Germany. We have HORRENDOUS electricity costs.
Two sure ways to get rich mining.
1. Sell supplies to miners.
2. Rob miners.
Ah Poetic Justice
I love it when the stupidity of the greedy catches up to them.
Re: Ah Poetic Justice
Would you please enlighten me as to what you are referring to?
He's referring to the fact that BTC mining is a pipe dream today - anyone intending to make money out of it is kidding themselves. There are factories making machines specifically created only for BTC mining. If you are not using one of those, you're so far behind the curve it's laughable. If you are using one of those, you're just making the wheel go 'round.
Proof : the one guy in this thread who thinks he can still mine a BTC says that he'll use the money to buy better equipment.
I'll just sit back and have a margherita. Sounds like a better investment to me.

Taco 6 speed onto 2F?

The current gen Tacoma uses one of two stick shifts, the R155 and the RA60.
The R155 is a 5-speed that continues the lineage of the R150 and R151, so I assume that existing bellhousings that adapt engine-to-tranny would work with it. But AFAIK this is only used on the 2TR-FE (4 cylinder) Tacoma. The first gen Taco used the W59 on the 3RZ, so Toyota is jumping back and forth it seems between the W and R series transmissions on the 4 cylinder. The earlier gens used the W56 with the exception of the R151F on the turbo 22R-TE. The V6 Hilux used the R150F.
The 6-speed is the RA60, which I know nothing much about. It obviously has the same bellhousing pattern as the A750 since they both bolt to the 1GR-FE. Not sure what else in the world might use this tranny, but surely it must be bolted to something else.
I think what most people are trying is the V160 or V161 6-speed from the Supra, since this has been around longer than the RA60 and RA61. That means there might be a bellhousing out there, either aftermarket or Toyota, that gets the right pattern. But that might be to mate it to something like a 1/2/3UZ-FE, which probably does not help get to a 2F. However if you want to put a 6-speed in a 100 series Cruiser, that's your ticket. The Supra V8 used the 2UZ I think.

Vikings, Giants Ground Games May Take Center StagePosted by on December 9, 2010 – 6:40 am
With Brett Favre's status unclear coupled with the recent outburst of the NY Giants RB tandem of Ahmad Bradshaw and Brandon Jacobs, Sunday's matchup at Mall of America Field might end up being a classic ground-and-pound battle.
Last Sunday, Vikings RB Adrian Peterson ran up the score, literally, with 3 TDs while the Giants RB duo of Bradshaw and Jacobs combined for 200 yards and 4 TDs in a victory over the Washington Redskins. And as the old adage goes, 'if ain't broke, don't fix it.' So why would either the Vikings or Giants veer away from their recent successes running the ball? I can't think of a reason.
Not to mention that Favre has thrown more INTs this season than any other QB with 18 and Giants QB Eli Manning ranks 2nd in the category with 17 – another reason for both teams to establish their rushing attacks. Despite those numbers, though, both the Vikings and Giants posted convincing wins last week with negative passing TD-to-INT ratios (Vikings 2-4, Giants 0-1).
Another reason why I'm speculating a run-heavy contest on Sunday is caused by Vikings Interim Head Coach Leslie Frazier's approach during his first 2 games at the helm.
Over the past 2 games, the Vikings have recorded a 78-46 run-pass ratio, with the Giants providing a 62-49 ratio during that same span. Frazier has also emphasized his vision of the team's identity, stating that they're at their best when "we're running the ball and stopping the run."
Also, let's not forget that both teams boast dominant defensive fronts with the ability to get after the QB. The Giants defense ranks 3rd in the league with 35 sacks and the Vikings may only rank in a pedestrian 20th place with 22, but have compiled 8 over their last 3 games. These numbers give added incentive for each team's QB to hand the ball off.
Getting back to the Giants RB tandem, Frazier told reporters on Wednesday that his defense, which has allowed just 113 rushing yards total over the last 2 games, will need to maintain its dominance to stop the Giants dangerous ground game.
"They're playing well," Frazier acknowledged of Bradshaw and Jacobs. "It will be a great challenge for our defense. We really hang our hat on being able to stop the run and this will be a week to stand up in that area because once they get it going in the run game it makes Eli a lot better and makes their receivers a lot better. We're going to have to be right against their run game."

If Farve plays, who will come out on top of the INT's record for this game, Manning or Farve? Whose line is truly most dominant?

Even though the Vikings are my favorite team.. the more they lose the better chance we can get a good qb out of the 2011 draft. Why are they trying so hard to win?

Joe Webb, with the hundreds of millions of dollars gambled on pro football each year, any hint of a team "not trying to win" would unleash the dogs at NFL security and the FBI. Vegas would start taking those games "off", and the whole credibility of the league would come into question. That's why Vegas doesn't put out a line on "pro" wrestling.

I would also like to believe these players are professional enough to give their utmost every game. They certainly are paid enough. Getting the reputation as "lazy" or a "quitter" can devastate a player's career. Just look at Randy Moss's situation now.

Finally, Leslie Frazier will be looking for work somewhere next year (hopefully with the Vikings). I believe that the players would like to see him back in Minny, and by playing hard they can help accomplish that.

Joe, they are not mathematically eliminated from the playoffs! They'll be able
to wheel and deal next year. I honestly believe they could run the table. This
is a wacky league and anything can happen. Here's hoping Frazier gives
the Giants a dose of Favre and TJ. This could come down to who has the
better running game

I don't even know why we are going to play this game!! The Giants are a far superior team in every phase of the game. Just because we beat a depleted Giants team last year doesn't mean we have a chance this week. They are going to run and pass all over us. Favre should have retired last year to at least give us another chance to evaluate Jackson. Not to mention he will probably be suspended soon for sending inappropriate pictures of his lower region to a reporter. Thank god for beer on Sunday…I predict Giants 35 Vikings 13

Brett haters need to shut up. Brett had a bad year because Sidney didn't have his surgery on time to play the whole year, the team didn't like the coach and stopped playing well, Brett had no protection, got hit constantly and threw interpeptions while in a hurry, receivers couldn't catch, defense couldn't stop anyone, bad play calling, etc., etc., etc. It was not Brett's fault. It is amazing to me that Brett has still wanted to play with all of his injuries and getting beat up. He is the Ironman! He is The Football player who just wants to play and win! He loves the game but after getting beat up this year I think he will retire. We will definitely miss him! Thanks Brett for all the fun you gave us for 20 years!

Favre should just rest up for this game. His limited mobility will be a huge liability for him against the Giants. T-Jack may not be the best QB in the league, but he is decent and more importantly in this game, he's very mobile. We're going to need a QB who can scramble in this game. I definitely think some Wildcat plays with Webb would be very helpful, too. Here's hoping Harvin can play, too. We're going to need him.

I really liked SHAWN's analogy on why Favre should start. Shawn said something like: Frazier's job is on the line, and he wants Favre to start, therefore Favre must be the best choice right now.
Personally, I do not care that much. Either QB can win with a strong supporting cast. No QB can win with a weak supporting cast! ! !

I disagree somewhat with the philosophy of emphasizing the run so much. I think we should do what is unexpected and what is tailored to the opposition's weaknesses. The Giants are not weak against the run, so we should pass more than we did in the Bill's game. I'm not saying we should just pass, but go to maybe 55/45 pass/run and, especially, pass on our first possession to loosen up their defense. Remember what happened when we only could run – we faced 8 and 9 man fronts. Go Vikes.

Cariboo Bill, I think Frazier is just trying to rally the troops around running the football and defensing the run. It's probably a good way to start any football game.
They do have to take what the defense gives them.

If the cowboys can demolish the giants with their back up qb, so can we. C'mon now. The giants are a good team, but so are we. I really think that if childress were still the head coach right now, we would've lost the last two games and we would be the laughing stock of the NFL. At least with frazier we've been able to rebound a little. If favre plays, as long as he doesn't commit any turnovers, we should be fine. Same with Tjack. One touchdown would be all we need from either qb. Anymore would be great. Run the ball and let our defense create turnovers.

I'll be amazed if Vikings beat a team with a winning record between now and the Eagles game. They have yet to do so and with the injuries surrounding our team, it seems pretty daunting.
By Frederick Jones on Dec 9, 2010 | Reply
xvike, as an ex-coach I have to say that it's true that if we had not fired Coach Childress we would not have won the last games. HOWEVER…Be aware that the current team, like Dallas, used "It's the coach's fault" in their last few games.
There were schisms on the team, and certainly Brad Childress was partly to blame for that. It is CRAZY to say it is all one man's fault.
It's like saying a divorce is all the man's fault, or all the woman's fault. Brad Childress was and is a GREAT COACH.
By Frederick Jones on Dec 9, 2010 | Reply
The problem with this Viking team (and so many others around the world) is that they FORGOT HOW THEY WON.
Players become impossible to coach when that happens. We should not blame Childress for the Vikings current record.
Frazier (who I like) is coaching Childress's team.

Fred – If Brad was such a great coach, then why did he lose his players? Keeping the players happy and productive is the number one job of the coach, especially since he chose to put the majority of those guys on the team.
A good coach is just like a good boss. If the guys underneath you dispise you for the way you treat them or run the system, then why would they produce for you when it counts? There are those of us who have the ethics to work hard no matter what, but that is far from the case for everybody in the world. It's reality, and it's the coach (boss) who is to blame when it happens.
By mr smiff on Dec 9, 2010 | Reply
Frederick, I disagree. I wouldn't put everything on Childress, but he is largely responsible for our current record. He knew Favre was a 40 year old qb with a bad ankle, but did nothing to beef up the o-line which fell apart on him late last season. He could of at tried to talk Rice into talking to an expert about his hip. He did nothing. His playcalling was stale and predictable, he was complacent with hs team (how are you going to see your players falling about on Soldier Field and not tell them to put on longer cleats?) and he treated them in a high-handed and cold manner. In the end it became difficult for them to be motivated to win, especially when if they did, he would still be their coach. They may be pros, but they're also human.

Like the article says, this game is all about the run. If either team stops the run, then that team will win. Turnovers will also be in that teams favor regardless who our QB is.

By CaribooBill on Dec 9, 2010 | Reply
Childress has a winning record, which you can't say about very many unemployed ex head coaches. The Vikings, as a team, improved every year with him, until this year. The pretty well stayed pat over the off-season. They under-performed in the NFC championship game and in a couple of other games late last year (Arizona comes to mind) when they could have won home field advantage. Dallas got whacked by the Vikes in the playoffs and Arizona got whacked by the Saints. The Colts wimped out and didn't go for an undefeated season. This year, all these teams are struggling, some more than others. Is it all due to injuries or coaching – I wonder? The difference between teams at this level seems to be very little and maybe it doesn't take very much to affect their play, a perception of inadequate coaching, a perception of being hard done by or a sense that we can't win for whatever reason. If one of those perceptions takes hold, valid or not, changes have to be made to get back on the winning track. This is way too long – sorry.

Brad made good and bad moves… I'd say spending all that extra money on Favre this year and the wasted pick and salary wasted on Moss for 4 weeks, were his downfall. The real strange x-factor this year is putting in Brett when he cannot win the games! I wonder if wooing the Favre fans into the fold is part of this.. He has gotten us on the TV broadcast map regularly. I wonder how long it will be till we are seen that much again outside of the football network… Never? I feel for Brett and T-Jack. But we should best .500, so lets see something other than creamed corny Brett..

Cariboo Bill: I agree mostly with what you are saying. I was a Childress detractor early on in his tenure. But his team results continued to improve. This year, I didn't get the feeling he had his heart in it, or as willing to adjust during the games to win. This is a good point you made earlier. These press conferences that are forced day after day, coaches are to tip their hand as to what they are going to do. They may say we'll run 75 times with the fullback up the gut Sunday, but in reality they think like you do. Let's try the run. Observe what the defense is allowing us. Audible or switch to the pass in some run situations etcetera. I'm very happy with the Vikings coaching over the past two weeks. I have always liked Frazier, but I had a lot of concerns about his defense this year, but the past two weeks, they look very respectable again. Balance is great when it is effective, otherwise you go with what works.

Giants Hammer: Nicks has been very impressive this year. Your franchise has always been impressive on the defensive side of the ball. BUT, your defense doesn't play against A.P. every week. Jacobs and Bradshaw are a very good duo, but child please! A.P. is over 1,000 yards with a banged up and inconsistent line. Harvin, Rice, and Schiancoe are equal matches to or slightly better than your trio of Boss, Nicks and Steve Smith. Our secondary is a vulnerability, but our coaching staff has done a better job of disguise blitzes of late, and rolling coverages. Can we expect a humble apology from you about 5:00 Eastern time on Sunday?

Peterson 06450 and for4nomore: If Favre had his heart in it, he would have had ankle surgery in February. Instead, we begged him back. THe easy thing for him to do would have been to use one of these earlier injuries to say " I can't go, or " I'm done". He does continue to answer the bell. Respect it. He's been our best chance with all of his supporting cast going down time and time again around him. Now that some of these guys are clicking again, you say bench him. Loyalty is a two way street.

Frederick: I have never coached football, so your experience is of value on this. As a coach, you probably had Friday nights where the other team's coach was extremely knowledgeable about football. His players had the size and speed to overpower your team, but somehow you won. You can have all the knowledge in the world, and the talent to move mountains, but if you can't motivate, or develop a shared vision between players and coach, your doomed. This is how I evaluate our previous coach and his demise.
By Ricefield on Dec 9, 2010 | Reply
I don't know about our o-line not being able to do what they need to do. Frazier talks alot about us fans and the energy in the dome. We know that when the fans are into it, our defense performs very well and I think the o-line can feed off the success of our defense.
Home field advantage is great and if the d-fence performs we could see a little oneupmanship take place between the o-line and d-line. But I think it will start and end with us fans being in the game and helping the defense.
But that's just me.

Oh and another thing. I don't get this whole Farve vs T-Jack rift in the fanbase.
Farve is the starter and its looking like he might not be able to go Sunday. I say, "Oh Well". If Farve can't do it, T-Jack can. It isn't like we're automatically going to lose because one or the other can't start.
As far as I can see, they are both capable of leading the team and like I've said since I started coming to these boards a couple of days ago. Our defense is going to decide this game. If our defense does what I know its capable of it won't matter who the QB is, because we'll have the ball most of the game anyway.

My Predictions (as if anyone cares LOL)
Henderson will have an INT that will be the mirror image of the one he had against the Cowboys.
Winfield will have an INT.
Chad Greenway is going to get a strip.
Jared Allen will have two Sacks, one of which will be a strip fumble.
AP will have 2 TD and rush for around 125 yds.
Rice will have 4 receptions and one TD.
Final score: 24-13 Vikings.

Ricefield: You have to visualize success. Your fumble predictions may be more visionary. Bradshaw of the Giants has had some difficulty handling the ball this year. I think the defense is going to change their schemes and have a suprise or two for Eli that will lead to those picks you talk about.

It's what I expect. If say we go into half-time 10-0 or 14-7, then I expect Manning to start throwing the ball our of necessity and that's where the INT's will come from.
I actually think there will be more INT's but 2 is the number I was most comfortable with. Let's just say at least 2. How's that?

Yeah, I'm not certain about Harvin playing so I didn't make any predictions for him but if he plays, I expect at 3-5 receptions and maybe a couple of rushes.
Running back a punt is nice but it seems like something that happens when we're behind in the score and I don't expect us to be behind.
For any of my predictions to come to fruition, I think we have to have the lead going into half-time.
This could all be nonsense but I just have a feeling.

I completely agree. It's like people expect we're going to get a super QB out of the draft when there are just a couple of good QB's coming out of the draft and there are teams that will have fewer wins than us even if we lose every game for the rest of the year.

Some of the best QB's in recent years are Flacco out of Delaware (Rich Gannon's alma mater), and Matt Ryan out of Boston College. Look at the can't miss guys that, well, missed. Matt Leinert, JaMarcus Russell, Brady Quinn. Everybody wants a Montana, Elway, Brady, and so on. You're better off taking a chance on a guy from a lesser know school that has the head and tools to play the position. Draft them in rounds 4-6, so you don't have a ton of dough tied up in a glorified waterboy for 2-3 years.

At some point they can put something on the scoreboard about Brett's streak
stop the game for a minute let Brett get a standing ovation acknowledgment
from the Giants and then play some football. I think it would a great thing and
Favre can take a deep breath and relax. If he has to come in and by some stroke
of luck catches fire then it would be that much more dramatic!

The vikings can not afford to get off to a slow start and that's what will happen if Favre plays. He is not playing well and with an injury and his lack of mobility to get away from that pass rush, his presents would really hurt our chances.

The Almighty Brett threw a pass at practice. Wow, what an athlete. Too bad he has to hand off left handed. I bet he plays the game of his life Sunday.

So, if TJ starts and we lose does that mean we should start Webb against the Bears?
I'm just curious.

Who wanted Brett? The team was it not. Brett did not want to come back this year; it took his teammates to go and get him, did it not? Besides this O-Line and receivers where of no use to any QB, Not even the mighty T-Jack could win the way they have played in the first part of the season.

Has anybody ever thought that Childress knew he was heading out the door with the dismissal of Randy Moss? This was a caculated move, Childress is too intellegent in that manner. "He took advantage his powers by not informing the Owners on the dimisal of Randy Moss deliberately. Therefore:
1. He wanted to be fired
2. Randy Moss was used as a Pawn, "He gave us Randy, and He took him back.
3. Just as favoritism effected the team, favoritism effected the coach.
4. You want Bret, here he is. He made Ziggy pay dearly.
The Blog seems to underestimate Chilly:
1. Childress knew Brett was not the answer, long before he got fired and before
the season started.
2. Ziggy had the infactuation and Chilly simply gave him his wish.
3. When Chilly tried to pull BF out Ziggy had the last word and sided with the QB. That was the beginning to the end.
4. The Daggar was in the New Orleans game. Brett gets nailed, and Chilly attempting to but Tavaris in for that one series and BF goes running back on the field. The body language and his look told it all. Brett throws Int! Chilly was powerless. He couldnt tell him to sit his a_ _ down!!
So here's Favre Ziggy, Ha! Ha!
The Vikings need to get Randy Moss back, and I hope the Good People of Minnesota recognize and make some noise to bring Randy back home.
Randy knew Childress was not trying to win, and told it Nationally. But everyone thought Randy was crazy. Randy spent the whole week helping prepare for NE schemes but at game time Childress deliberatly disgarded everything he said to purposely lose. This is Deep fellows.
You need to get Randy back he's a winner and a Viking. Sidney & Randy come on man. Childress was not going to leave Randy with you. Come on Minnesota start the drum beat. Ziggy he got you back for Favoritism. Coach over Player. Moss was the pawn. Get Him Back Minnesota!!!

'Know Before You Go," Cleveland National Forest officials advise
Friday, Feb. 27—Because of the storm that's expected to bring moderate to heavy rain and the threat of flash flooding to the region from early Friday through Saturday, Cleveland Notional Forest officials plan to close some forest roads.
They encourage forest visitors to "Know Before You Go" and call a ranger station to check on location conditions and restrictions:
The Palomar Ranger Station in Ramona is at 760-788-0250. To contact the Descanso Ranger Station, call 619-445-6235. The Trabuco Ranger Station is at 951-736-1811.
More information about the Cleveland National Forest is at www.fs.usda.gov/cleveland.

The possibility that the completion of the Zoo Interchange project may be delayed is unlikely to have a direct effect on the development of the Innovation Park property, nor is it likely to impact the construction of a planned addition at Froedtert Hospital, according to representatives familiar with the projects.
It may, however, have negative side effects for Innovation Park and businesses in Wauwatosa.
The Zoo Interchange project, expected to be completed in 2018, may not be done until 2020 due to funding difficulties.
Froedtert representatives have said that the hospital will break ground on a $117 million dollar addition to the south side of the hospital pending necessary approvals.
"A delay in the Zoo Interchange project will not affect Froedtert Hospital's current plans to construct a new building on its campus," Froedtert spokeswoman Beth Strohbusch wrote in an email.
The Innovation Park project is likewise unlikely to be directly affected, City Administrator Jim Archambo said.
A contractor is expected to begin building Discovery Parkway, which will wend its way through the 87-acre parcel, east of Highway 45 and north of Mayfair Road, early next month. The parkway itself connects to Watertown Plank Road, but far enough east that the interchange project will not affect it, city Finance Director John Ruggini said.
Any delay would affect the Zoo Interchange itself, not the ancillary work planned for Mayfair Road, Glenview Avenue and other streets that reach into Wauwatosa, at least to the best of Archambo's knowledge.
"The way that it potentially affects (the projects) is that it potentially drags out for a longer period of time how long local businesses will have to deal with the construction," he said. "So I think in that way, it will have a negative impact."
It might make it more difficult to recruit businesses into the park, Archambo said. Similarly, "I believe it may make it more difficult for existing or any business to recruit people into the area knowing that they'd have to potentially put up with construction for two additional years."
Curtis Stang, chief operating officer of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Foundation, which owns Innovation Park, said potential tenants for the park "are looking for the long term" and wouldn't be making a decision based on temporary road work. It's just "more of an inconvenience," he said.
Archambo said meetings are planned between the city and the state Department of Transportation in the next couple of weeks to discuss the Zoo Interchange work.
"We're in contact with the DOT," he said.

Joelle – Sweet Nothing – The X Factor Australia 2013
Joelle sang "Sweet Nothing" on The X Factor Australia 2013.
I really loved the staging of this — HOWEVER, she was swallowed up by the entire production. I could not make her out from all the dancers and the amazing set. Redfoo is not doing his acts any favors with all the crazy staging.
The Latest on The X Factor Australia
All posts on The X Factor Australia
Got Something to Add?
dafuq was that
Check out her Youtube channel. Joelle has an amazing voice. This was a weird song choice for her. I hope she gets to do a medium tempo/ballad next week. Maybe an acoustic of Clarity or Wake Me Up? Or something more urban like Stole by Kelly Rowland.
Joelle is hot, hot, hot, and I hope she sticks around for a long time. But, if that's going to happen then Redfoo needs to get his head in the game. This performance was too much like something LMFAO would do and that isn't Joelle.
The staging was narrow elongated box, with dancing poles and two side doors. It was very confusing trying to follow all the crowd at times. I would add that the camera production while unique following her inside one door and exiting another, was not always focused on her. I think the director tries to capture too much all in one take. It is very hard to capture a live performance verses a video take, camera shot changes etc.
I believe Joelle has the potential to progress further - this is her second attempt.

Last month, kindergarteners at Sea Cliff Elementary School had a Thanksgiving Celebration that included the shared reading of poems and songs as part of balanced literacy. In preparation for the special day, the students explored different ways of using cranberries like the pilgrims long ago. They made cranberry sauce to give as gifts for their families with decorative cloth called muslin.
But that is not all - the kindergarten classes made cornbread, applesauce, and popcorn which they enjoyed at the Thanksgiving celebration. Additionally, the students engaged in weeks of interactive writing which resulted in the completion of their "I am Thankful" books to share with their peers and at home with their families.
Eighth-grade ELA and social studies teachers at Robert M. Finley Middle School in Glen Cove recently organized a day of cultural sharing entitled Diversity Day. Held in the school's mini center, the event served as a culmination to the students' studies on immigration. The gathering included presentations research projects as well as a feast of foods from different countries around the world.
First- and second-graders at Deasy Elementary School have been studying the natural environments in and around Glen Cove, literally learning the lay of the land – and water, for that matter.
The Glen Cove High School Music Department announced that eight students have been selected to participate as All-State musicians in the 78th Annual New York State School Music Association Winter Conference in Rochester, on Dec. 5-8. Additionally, one student has been named to the All-National Choir, the first student at Glen Cove High School to achieve this honor.
On Nov. 4, seventh-graders got a special treat when guest speaker Captain Wile, a pilot with Southwest Airlines (and a father in the community) visited North Shore Middle School to teach about the Physics of Flight.
As part of the forces unit in science, the students eagerly listened to Captain Wile as he explained how airplanes fly by utilizing the Four Forces of Flight including lift, gravity, thrust, and drag. Captain Wile discussed Bernoulli's Principle and
Newton's Law in relation to flying Boeing 737 airplanes.

Principal and Superintendent's Report – December 16, 2013
- Literacy
Classroom teachers and special educators met in grade-alike teams on Friday, December 6th to score pre-instruction informational text writing prompts and set goals for their informational text units. It was a great opportunity to see trends across a wide range of ages and establish some consistent language and expectations. Grades 3-6 are working on designing some sort of information fair as one of the culminating tasks of the unit. Grades 1 and 2 have created a student-friendly rubric for measuring progress during a "mechanics boot camp" to be completed in December.
The WCSU elementary and middle school reading specialists have met a few times in the past month. Their primary focus has been working out bugs in district-authored assessments and considering the best assessment strategy for advanced readers.
- Mathematics
Mahesh Sharma visited WCSU during the week of December 9th for "clinical rounds" across all grade levels. CES had the opportunity to host the clinical rounds for PreK and K teachers as well as first and second grade teachers on Monday, December 9th. Both Callie Weller and Kelly MacMartin offered their students for demo lessons taught by Mahesh. After each demo lesson, grade-alike groups gathered to debrief the experience and learn some new strategies for teaching key skills like number concept and fact fluency. It was an excellent learning experience for all and has spurred conversation and questions, particularly about our math intervention systems (or lack thereof) in the days that have followed.
In January, we will use some in-service time to bring these WCSU grade-alike groups back together. They will discuss and plan the implementation of the student achievement non-negotiables developed by the Math Steering Committee. The clinical rounds visits have served as an excellent foundational experience for this work.
- School Climate
- Discipline (Student Climate)
We are planning our next school-wide celebration as the whole school treasure chest is once again reaching capacity!
Students have been working hard on our new and improved voice level system. This system was introduced in a November All School Morning Meeting using a video featuring several fifth and sixth grade pirates. Cat Fair and John Fish did a fabulous job of putting together a great, short film in just a few days.
- Other Curricular Areas
- Science
Mary Carpenter and Marissa will take a course on the NGSS (Next Generation Science Standards) this spring. This course is being offered through LAPDA and we are excited to join several colleagues from the Science Steering Committee in this undertaking.
- Other
- Fun Fitness Friday
We are finalizing lists and organizing chaperones. Let's hope for a very snowy year, as a new downhill destination proved financially impossible!
Some of the crew who attended the June BEST institute to revise and bring consistency to the WCSU EST (educational support team) process met recently to take stock of the system. Our pre-EST process in which we document interventions for students before referring them to the EST is going well. A few glitches still remain in the technology we are using to keep forms electronically, but we continue to get good help from tech staff to work through these. It is exciting to see this work happening fairly consistently across the SU and knowing we have structures in place to respond to feedback and continuously improve our work.

Fears of Children
USA, 1951 (MIFF 1955, The Family Circle)
Director: Francis Thomspon
A film about Paul, a normal five-year-old and his well intentioned parents. In a series of episodes typical of those arising in families with small children, it shows how Paul's fears are related to his feelings about his parents. With naturalness and deft touches of humour it gives an insight into some of the many problems that arise when parents are unduly protective or over severe.

Mortar shells from Syria fired into Turkey
Monday, March 24, 2014
HATAY - Several mortar shells dropped Monday on Turkey's Yayladagi region - close to the Syrian border - as a result of a fight between Syrian opposition and regime forces for control of a town close to the Turkish border, Anadolu Agency correspondents at the scene reported.
The shells were reportedly fired from the Syrian town of Keseb, seized by the opposition armed group Free Syrian Army (FSA) on Saturday, but which regime forces are trying to recapture.
Three mortar shells dropped on the Yayladagi district of the Hatay province.
Turkish troops near the border retaliated by firing mortar shells, authorities said.
Turkey and Syria share more than 800 km of border.
The war between the Free Syrian Army and forces loyal to the embattled President Bashar Assad had been in an uneasy stalemate since late 2013.
Syria has been gripped by almost constant fighting since President Bashar al-Assad's regime responded to anti-government protests in March 2011 with a violent crackdown, sparking a conflict which has spiraled into a civil war.
The civil war, which entered its fourth year last week, has claimed more than 140,000 lives, according to the London-based Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR).
