Correction To Compensatory Pick Question In MailbagPosted by on March 22, 2011 – 6:15 am
I wanted to take a quick moment this morning to issue a correction to an answer in this week's Monday Morning Mailbag. In the first question of this week's MMM, Gideon asked a two-part question that dealt with the draft and, specifically, the compensatory selections the Vikings would receive in the 2011 NFL Draft.
I explained that we didn't know the status of the Vikings compensatory selections because teams are awarded those selections based off of the results of free agency. And since free agency was delayed due to the Collective Bargaining Agreement impasse, we don't have a way of knowing how many compensatory picks will be awarded to the Vikings.
The answer was partially true, but also partially inaccurate.
On Monday afternoon I noticed a tweet from Mike Reiss of ESPNBoston.com that indicated the inaccuracy in the answer. Reiss tweeted that the NFL typically awards compensatory selections during the March owners' meetings but that early word this year is the picks will be announced at a later date. To further confirm the inaccuracy in the Mailbag, I received a note from a reader pointing out that the compensatory selections are indeed based off of free agency movement but that it's the free agency movement from the previous year.
Adam Warwas is the reader who pointed this out to me. He said in an email: "The Vikings are expected to get two picks (no better than 5th-rounders) for losing OL Artis Hicks and RB Chester Taylor while being quiet in free agency themselves. Again, these picks are based off of 2010's free agency movement, and are expected to be awarded next week. The CBA unrest only has comp pick ramifications moving forward beyond this upcoming draft."
After doing some research (research I should've done on Monday before answering the question!), I quickly realized that Adam is spot on. I also checked out Adam's blog – www.vikingsgab.com – and he has some good stuff on there. I encourage readers of this blog to pay him a visit at his site as well.
More on compensatory picks
– Under terms of the CBA, a team losing more or better compensatory free agents than it acquires in the previous year is eligible to receive compensatory draft picks. The number of picks a team receives equals the net loss of compensatory free agents up to a maximum of 4.
– Teams that gain and lose the same number of players but lose higher-valued players than they gain also can be awarded a pick, but only in the seventh round (after the other compensatory picks).
– The compensatory choices supplement the selections in the 7 rounds of the draft, and the compensatory selections are added to rounds 3-7.
– Compensatory picks cannot be traded, and the placement of the picks is determined by a proprietary formula based on the player's salary, playing time and postseason honors with his new team, with salary being the primary factor. Not every free agent lost or signed by a team is covered by this formula, which the NFL Management Council developed.
– If fewer than 32 compensatory picks are awarded, the balance of picks is awarded in the order in which teams would pick in a hypothetical 8th round of the draft (these are known as "supplemental compensatory selections").

With the 12th overall pick in the nfl draft the Vikings select…………… OT Tyron smith out of the university of california. As far as qb's goes I have no clue w ho they will target so it will be interesting nobody stands out much this is a tough call.

Just my $0.02 on the quarterbacks in this years draft. I'll say first and foremost that I'm not sold on ANY of them. That being said, all of the names being thrown around have upside, whether it is arm strength, athleticism or the ability to make all the throws – which brings us to the downside.
ALL of them have downsides – and for most I don't think they have proven they can be worked on or overcome. Locker's accuracy issues, Mallet's decision making, etc. Cam Newton could be the next big thing or he could be the next Matt Leinhart (highly recruited and drafted but amount to nothing) or Vince Young (have a few good seasons until teams figure out that he isn't a pocket passer and force him to try to become one and watch the ensuing meltdown). About the only QB I would take a chance on – and I would start him right away especially in a run first offense – is Dalton. Great touch on a pocket passer and a proven winner with minimal downside (arm strength) – and best of all he could be taken in the 2nd or 3rd round potentially allowing the Vikes to take the BPA in the first round.

I need to admit first that I will be excited about anyone the Viking's draft. Knowing what will be available I would be happy with Mallet, Locker and especially Dalton if we could get him in the second round. All of them make me nervous and have flaws. Dalton is the most accurate, people talk about his arm strength but we play in a dome.. no wind
By Parody on Mar 22, 2011 | Reply
Arm strength doesn't have a whole lot do with wind factors. A QB with a weaker arm is not going to be able to throw a deep ball on any field. This makes the field that defenses need to protect become smaller. Also, a weaker arm means that the ball will be thrown with less velocity on the shorter routes, giving defenders more time to move in the way and deflect or intercept an otherwise perfectly thrown pass. So less arm strength arguably requires more accuracy and more football inteligence for a QB to be as successful as someone who isn't a stranger to the weight room.

It's irrelevant that we are in a dome— you cannot win the big game if you cannot win at least half your games on the road– and if you do not– well, then your playoff games are on the road.

Someone said we should bring Culpepper back.
I'm not against giving him a tryout.
At 6-4 and 285 he may be an easy target, however.

I realize many of you are against both sides in the CBA thing.
There is a great article @ Zoneblitz.com by TJ "The Dude" Johnson.
He gives a great argument against the owners. I would strongly suggest reading it! ! !
By Michael on Mar 22, 2011 | Reply
For QB, only guy i'd draft at 12 is Newton and he's prob not falling to us. I'd take Dalton in the 2nd if there but no one else. I think the best option is to sign (or trade for) someone once the new CBA is reached. I like Hasselback is avabile or Palmer or V. Young or even Boller.. McNabb will have too high of a price tag. Hasselback would be perfect for 1 or 2 years then start Webb or (hopefully) someone else they draft. Otherwise, call up Favre. He'd play in an 8-10 game season :) (he's still better than some of these other guys we've mentioned- Grossman, Hill, Kaepernick)

@Michael, I would rather take Jake Locker at 12 than Cam Newton. If anyone is what I mean. I would rather take Dalton, McElroy, Stanzi, or Devlin. I think they are safer picks.
By Woodboat on Mar 23, 2011 | Reply
There isn't a single QB in the draft that I'd be any more excited about than I am about Webb, and that's not saying much. I don't think any of them outshine the kid we have already, really. If they waste our 1st rd pick on a QB, I'll definately be b ummed out. When criticizing Dalton, folks point at his lack of arm strength. It does shorten the field some, but some of you are acting like he can't throw more than 5 yards :). If I had to chose between inaccuracy, poor decision making, and weak arm… I'll take a weak arm every time. An off. coord. can scheme for a weak arm… hard to scheme for innaccuracy or bad decision making and expect success.

Every one, how can there be a new CBA when there is no players union?
By DRS on Mar 23, 2011 | Reply
What's much more likely is that some subset of Twin Cities taxpayers, in whichever city or county a new stadium is built, will bear the biggest tax burden. And the votes to impose it are likely to come mostly from the same greater Minnesota lawmakers who don't want to see their rural and small-town constituents taxed.
That's how the Minnesota Twins got state funding in 2006 for what is now Target Field. Most of the "yes" votes to authorize a .015% Hennepin County sales tax increase came from lawmakers outside the seven-county Twin Cities metropolitan area, overwhelming the "no" votes that came from within the metro.
"It's kind of a sucker plan for whatever community gets stuck with it," said Sen. John Marty, a Roseville Democrat and longtime opponent of public money for stadiums. The Hennepin County Board approved the sales tax hike, but it never went to a voter referendum, as opponents wanted.
Will or, will there not be a new stadium? That is the question for Viking fans.

Please dont trade up to take a qb without a doubt the worst scenario we could take, I mean we dont have a third round so what the heck would we give up to trade up from 12 our first and second round picks to get to the top 7 or 5 concidering there is NO viable top 10 qb prospect if anything id trade up to get patrick peterson he is the only one worth trading up to get conciderign we need to solidify our secondary immediatley more so then drafting a qb who isnt going to start this year

What i think is that the vikings either take a qb with the first, or they lose out on the top tier qb's of this year's draft. Let's face it. The only for sure qb's that wont make it out of the first is Gabbert and Newton. We are not the only team that is looking to take the BPA with the first and qb with the second. There's like 4-5 teams that pick b4 us that need a qb after newton and gabbert are gone. There's no doubt that locker, mallet will be gone by then. I'm thinking maybe stanzi or dalton will be there and if we don't reach for them, we won't get either because they won't make it past the third round and thanks to chilly we don't have one. Vikings are in a tough spot….

i think the vikings should go corner and pick prince amukamara at 12 and pick chris ponder in round 2. the secondary is in horrible condition and we will be filling 2 positions that are needed. ponder has a pretty ok arm and can make accurate throws. also he has the mobilty to extend plays and make an impact. not comparable to joe webb or mike vick but like big ben.
By Rogerthevikefan on Mar 24, 2011 | Reply
Ponder is what any one running a West Coast style offence would love to have. To bad Prince will likely be some where in Texas by the time the Vikes pick.

By the draft Ponder will have risen up the board and he will go early in the second.Top ten teams, most need a QB and if they do not pick one up in the first rd the vikes would have to move up.Watch Ponders grade around the middle of april he will be in bottom of 1st.Tackle DL/OL first then move back into the fiirst or wait till next year for QB

I think the best second round QB is Pat Devlin

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Attorney General Eric Holder is urging Congress to approve $15 million for training law enforcement officers in handling shooting rampages.
Holder's comments follow the recent shootings at a Jewish Community Center in Kansas and at Fort Hood, Texas.
In a video message posted on the Justice Department website Tuesday, the attorney general says training is critical since patrol officers who arrive first on the scene are increasingly being relied on to respond directly to shooters rather than waiting for SWAT teams.
The Justice Department and the FBI have provided this special training to 50,000 front-line officers in the past decade.

Jordan Hooper scored a game-high 33 points and grabbed 14 rebounds as Nebraska toppled Utah State 95-75 Sunday afternoon in Lincoln.
Hooper shot 11-of-16 from the floor (68.8 percent), made 11 from the free throw line and clocked her first career game without a three-point shot attempt. Emily Cady finished with 16 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists for the Huskers (7-2).
Both teams made eight three-pointers and made a comparable number of baskets. Nebraska made 28 while the Aggies finished with 30. The difference came at the free throw line where NU poured in 31 points while Utah State (5-3) scored just seven.
The Aggies attempted 25 more shots from the floor than Nebraska and Makenlee Williams led the team with 21 points.
Nebraska won six straight before losing two in a row, to Washington State and UNC.

Gov. Rick Scott signs bill cutting vehicle fees
Updated On: Apr 02 2014 11:39:06 AM EDT
Gov. Rick Scott signed a bill Wednesday morning that will save Floridian motorists money.
The bill will lower registration fees on your vehicle, saving about $25 per vehicle for tags renewed after Sept. 1, 2014. But people who paid a year in advance won't get a refund.
"This will result in an annual savings of $25 per typical motor vehicle and will let families keep nearly $400 million of their hard-earned money in their own pockets, because it's their money," said Scott.
No matter what size the car, you eventually will save some money. Small car fees will go down by $5, mid-size will go down $8 and large vehicle fees will go down by $11.50.
Many people in Florida won't be getting that discount right away. Since September 2013, nearly 600,000 people have purchased a two-year sticker, meaning they're not up for renewal until 2015 and 2016. The legislation said those people will not get refunds, which some lawmakers are not happy about.
"I call it a shame… A dirty shame," said Rep. Janet Cruz.
Democratic Rep. Janet Cruz from Tampa is one of those who is skeptical about the new bill.
"I'm happy that the tax is being reduced, but I think that we need to take a look at those folks that bought a two-year tag that were offered by us," said Cruz.
Rep. Mike Hill from Pensacola is the original Republican sponsor, and even he questions the bill, saying everyone deserves a refund.
"I'm just glad we can at least press on, press forward with getting it done. But you're right that is an issue with those who have paid for two years. What about them?" Hill said.
Giving everyone a refund who has at least a year left on their tag when rates go down in September will cost the state about $15 million.
Rep. Debbie Mayfield, of Vero Beach, voted for the hike at the height of the recession back in 2009, but also feels those 600,000 plus people should also save money.
"Some of the people that had renewed their license for the two-year period, paid the lower fee for two years, at the time other people paid the increase. And now it's just going back the opposite way," said Mayfield.
At the signing, Scott said he was sending a letter to county tax collectors urging them to have people renewing their registration before September to only pay for one year.
Governor Scott also sent a letter to the tax collectors encouraging Floridians who require a registration renewal before September 1 to only register for one year. To view the Governor's letter to the tax collectors.
Some other bills that will be brought up during the legislative session involve guns. One would allow trained school officials to carry a weapon; this bill being a direct response to the Sandy Hook tragedy.
Another is a bill that would allow warning shots and ease zero tolerance for kids who make gun like gestures in school. Mothers and mayors are expected to be protest that bill Wednesday.

NH Electric Co-op Working to Expand State's Network of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations
PLYMOUTH — New Hampshire Electric Co-op (NHEC) is partnering with a group of its commercial members in a pilot program that is adding up to seven publicly available Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations to the state's network.
The pilot program will help NHEC to better understand the use of and need for EV charging stations in its service territory. The number of EVs registered in New Hampshire is expected to double in 2013 and hundreds more visit from out of state, creating opportunities for the expanded development of a network of charging stations that can benefit EV drivers as well as the regional power grid.
NHEC has worked with some of its larger commercial members in the hospitality industry to install EV charging stations this year in North Conway (Red Jacket Mountain View Resort), Woodstock (Woodstock Inn Station), Plymouth (Common Man Inn) and Lincoln (Indian Head Resort). Additional charging stations are planned in Meredith (Church Landing at Mill Falls), and Jackson (Bernerhof Inn). When fully installed, they will complete a ring of stations that are all within the range limits of most EV and Plug-in Hybrid vehicles.
Gary Lemay, NHEC Renewable Energy Engineer and manager of pilot program, notes that "range anxiety" caused by a lack of available charging stations is one of the barriers to the rapid adoption of EV or Plug-in Hybrid technology.
"People with electric vehicles charge first at home, second at work and third at a destination type of location where they will be staying for one to three hours or longer," he said. "That makes these hotels and resorts ideal locations for EV charging stations."
Lemay estimates there are currently 13 Type II EV charging stations that are available for use by the general public in New Hampshire, but less than a handful located north of Concord. The charging stations installed as part of the NHEC pilot will put some of New Hampshire's most scenic terrain, including the White Mountains and Mount Washington Valley, within range for most EV motorists.
By monitoring the use of the charging stations in the NHEC pilot program (both in total kilowatt-hours and actual number of vehicles), NHEC will explore the possibility of a special EV charging rate or further incentives for commercial members to install the chargers.
NHEC is a non-profit electric distribution cooperative serving 83,000 homes and businesses in 115 New Hampshire communities.

Free Christmas Dinner Reservations Still Available
GILFORD — People who are alone for the holiday can brighten their day by taking part in a free Christmas meal at the First United Methodist Church of Gilford.
The members of the congregation along with about 50 or so community volunteers have been serving a free meal on Christmas afternoon for the last 17 years. The meal consists of ham and all the trimmings including candied carrots, stuffing, potatoes, salad, beverages and homemade pie. Carols are sung and good memories are shared of holidays past. There are homemade goodies and plenty of laughter.
Meal organizer Jessica Alward says, "We try to do this meal up right. It is really top drawer. China place settings and linen table cloths are part of how we try to make this feel like a very special Christmas dinner at home. The folks seem to love it, especially the Christmas tree in the dining room and singing carols during the fellowship hour prior to dinner. I just love hearing all the laughter in the room and seeing the smiles on people's faces."

Australian cricketer 'shocked' as flames go off near his face during match
Australian Twenty20 cricket captain Aaron Finch almost lost his eyebrows last night, when pyrotechnics went off in his face.
Cricket is a bat-and-ball team sport. Many variations exist, with its most popular form played on an oval-shaped outdoor arena known as a cricket field at the centre of which is a rectangular 22-yard (20.12 m) long pitch that is the focus of the game. A game (or match) is contested between two teams of eleven players each. One team bats, and will try to score as many runs as possible while the other team bowls and fields, trying to dismiss the batsmen and thus limit the runs scored by the batting team. A run is scored by the striking batsman hitting the ball with his bat, running to the opposite end of the pitch and touching the crease there without being dismissed. The teams switch between batting and fielding at the end of an innings.

In a hilarious moment, Aussie cricketer Mitchell Johnson smashed a ball into the commentator's box shattering the glass window.
The updated iPhone 5 model Apple is creating for T-Mobile might help some smaller wireless carrier's sell more iPhone units. As we explained Tuesday, in order to make the iPhone 5 compatible with T-Mobile's HSPA+ 42 network, Apple needed to turn on some additional radios for the A1428 iPhone 5. Existing A1428 devices won't be able to receive an upgrade, but all new phones sold after April 12, 2013, will work on AT&T and T-Mobile's HSPA+ (or "4G") networks.
Sprint is reportedly next in line to offer pre-paid iPhones in the U.S., according to a new report. Sprint is gearing up to launch pre-paid iPhones under its Virgin Mobile subsidiary starting in July, the Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday. The move would allow consumers to purchase and use an iPhone without deciding between a wireless contract and a hefty price tag.
Starting next month, you can buy an iPhone 4S without deciding between a $650 price tag and a two-year commitment. On June 22, Leap Wireless's prepaid subsidiary Cricket Wireless will begin offering a $55 monthly prepaid plan for the 16GB model of the iPhone 4S. While Verizon, Sprint and AT&T charge $649.99 without a contract for the model, Cricket will sell it for $499.99. Cricket is offering the same $55 monthly prepaid plan for the 8GB iPhone 4, which can be purchased in its stores for $399.99.
YouTube will begin live-streaming Indian Premier League cricket matches this March. It's possible that the matches will be viewable in countries like the United States that don't currently have a place to watch IPL matches on traditional TV. YouTube has been a destination for both the lPL and live streaming before, just not at the same time.

Barkley's on the mark as Eagles batter Jets in preseason gameZach Berman, The Philadelphia Inquirer
NEW YORK -- Matt Barkley did not create a backup quarterback controversy in his first start in an Eagles uniform. But if Thursday night's 37-7 win over the New York Jets in the preseason finale was an opportunity for the Eagles to measure the progress of the 2013 fourth-round pick, they can be encouraged by his improvement from last year.
The Eagles sat almost every starter and a few top reserves, leaving the game relevant only to coaches, opposing scouts, and devoted fans who will spend the next 36 hours predicting the Eagles' 53-man roster before it must be set Saturday at 4 p.m.
The draw of Thursday's game was measuring Barkley's progress and determining the Eagles' competition at kicker.
Cody Parkey made a strong case to be the team's kicker after connecting on three field goals, including a 53-yarder and a 54-yarder. Alex Henery, who did not attempt a field goal, entered the game 1 of 3 in the preseason with a career long of 51 yards.
Barkley received the most playing time in his two preseasons in Philadelphia. He finished 21 of 33 for 253 yards with a touchdown and an interception. He also rushed for a score. Barkley finished the preseason 41 of 65 (63.1 percent) for 495 yards, three touchdowns, and three interceptions. It was a marked improvement from a year ago, when Barkley completed only 50.8 percent of his passes and averaged 4.9 yards per attempt.
When Barkley arrived in Philadelphia, he thought he would compete with Nick Foles and Michael Vick for the starting job. The competition turned out to be between Vick and Foles. All three were at Thursday's game. Foles remained on the sideline while the Eagles' starters sat. Vick took one snap for the Jets before Jets coach Rex Ryan called a timeout and pulled him from the game for recognition from the half-full crowd at Lincoln Financial Field.
Vick received a standing ovation. He tipped his cap to the fans.
Barkley stayed in the game into the fourth quarter. When he first drove the team near the goal line, an apparent miscommunication with Quron Pratt resulted in an interception in the end zone.
Barkley rebounded on his next drive, connecting with Arrelious Benn for a 43-yard score. Benn, a former Tampa Bay second-round pick trying to compel the Eagles to keep him, caught his second touchdown pass of the preseason. The team's top receiver was Jeff Maehl, who finished with four catches for 84 yards in his bid to remain on the roster.
All the scoring in the second quarter came from Parkey, who added his third field goal in the third period. Barkley's rushing touchdown was a 7-yard fourth-quarter scamper to punctuate his performance.
Fourth-string quarterback G.J. Kinne relieved Barkley and led the Eagles on two touchdown drives. The first score was a 21-yard pass to Trey Burton. The second was a 46-yard rush by Damaris Johnson, who has had a strong preseason.
Johnson played running back because Matthew Tucker (shoulder) and Kenjon Barner (ankle) both left the game with injuries. Chris Polk (hamstring) was sidelined, and LeSean McCoy and Darren Sproles sat with the starters. That meant the only healthy running back by the second half was Henry Josey, who continued to make the most of the opportunity. Josey finished with 22 carries for 121 yards, which does not include a 33-yard run that was nullified by penalty. He entered the game averaging 8.4 yards per carry.
On defense, outside linebackers Travis Long and Bryan Braman recorded sacks. Safety Earl Wolff and defensive lineman Taylor Hart forced fumbles.
The Eagles finished 2-2 in the preseason. What matters is the season that begins when the Eagles host the Jacksonville Jaguars in 10 days.

Being Human Review: I Am A Human Being!by Carissa Pavlica at . Comments
Despite the fact I cannot get the Lemonheads' song out of my mind, I still find it difficult to remember that all Being Human show titles are named after singles.
It's really crazy how well they manage to fit a title to an episode, and "It's a Shame About Ray" was no exception. Well, except that it really isn't a shame about Ray.
He was kind of a turd and his crusty heart brought back Sally's body in the flesh, so... screw Ray!
Oh, how I have missed Sam Huntington on my TV screen. When Being Human Season 2 ended with the ringing of a gunshot in the woods, I never imagined Josh would be cured of his werewolfism (ummm...I don't think that's a word, but I'm running with it). He's actually human again.
It's been 15 months since that gunshot, so we don't know everything that happened, but I'm so damned happy the love between Josh and Nora was strong enough to withstand that shocking turn of events. After all, it was Nora who desperately wanted to be cured, and she was the one left behind. They're stronger than ever now and all of their energy has been turned to finding Sally and Aidan. You have to check out the Being Human quotes because as a pair, they were on fire.
Aidan was busily talking himself out of dying when he was dug up by a random dude looking for a cure for vampires. Since Aidan was gone, all vampires caught the flu. A human virus killing vampires. I guess that's kind of ironic, isn't it? From feeding on the blood of infected humans they were dying at an alarming rate of the flu. Unless I'm wrong, that's a first in the world of vamps in entertainment. Kinda cool that something so simple could do them in. The rumor was Aidan had pure blood and could save them all. Well, not so much.
As Aidan tried to keep his mental faculties, he turned to his friends to keep him going. Sally and Josh were in the forefront, as humorous as ever, and even Bishop popped in to whine and be annoyed by the three of them and their banter. The best moments are always when the group of them are tossing out the lines left and right. Their natural chemistry plays so well. I thought the first scene with the lobsters was going to be them now, and we'd be looking back on their success at getting there. I liked the writers' take better.
The hour essentially changed the course of Being Human and set it free from its British predecessor once and for all. While the other show had already taken its own course, comparisons were still rampant. I can safely say nothing we saw in this premiere mirrored what was seen in an episode of the equivalent by the same name. Not even close. This was completely original and extraordinarily clever material.
Josh and Nora were successful in bringing Sally back, and she brought Stevie and Nick (or Stevie Nicks, as Josh originally thought) back with her. They may have been in limbo, but I can't imagine hell being that much worse. They were emotionally exhausted and living a nightmare so many times they lost count. The good news?
Josh and Nora didn't just bring Sally's soul back, but her body as well. The witch who prepared the salve from Ray's heart said she wouldn't be exactly human, but she's obviously corporeal. That's something I would never have dreamed was in her future.
Were Stevie and Nick brought back inside her body, or did their souls make their way into their own bodies? I thought Sally was saying they were inside her, but Nora wondered if they awoke in their own bodies in their coffins. Wouldn't they need some cream for that? Just a little salve?
It should be interesting to see the story played out, as well as whatever the heck will happen with Ray's body now that his own witchy heart blood returned to it in the forest. Will he awaken, making Josh a werewolf again? Certainly two of our protagonists can't be so humanoid... can they? Oooh! Next week should be named after a Stevie Nicks' song. I doubt it will be, but wouldn't that be cute?
Whatever happens, it's a great start to Being Human Season 3. We never have to worry about Mother again, as she succumbed to flu, and the Dutch seem to be gone as well. A clean slate for the vampires would be welcome. No, it was needed in the worst way. They overdid the vampire lore with Mother and Suren, and someday, if Being Human is resurrected again, I hope they show Aidan as the father of all vampires with an ode to Bishop. Some things are better left unsaid.
"It's A Shame About Ray" was a genuinely refreshing way to breathe new life into the third season of a successful series. After only two seasons, the three of them have managed to do a pretty good job of being human, haven't they?

assuming they all wake up in sally's body im guessing next episode will be pretty good, i can imagine what will happen when the get up and realise there in sally's body.
nick: grabs chest "what the, breasts" (josh explains their in sallys body)
steve: "oh cool breasts" grabs chest
sally: "guys, stop touching my breasts"
Thank God I'm not the only person who doesn't like Nora. I was starting to feel as though it was just me! I reluctantly admit that she was nice and supportive etc. In this episode, but I'm still not pleased about her becoming a regular. I like them best when its the three of them interacting and bickering like sibling s throwing Nora in the mix just throws off the vibe. I have nothing against the actress buy Nora as a character gets under my skin, and now she'll suck up screentime. I'm thrilled mother is out of the picture, they did in fact overdo the vampire politics. Loved the introduction of witches. I was skeptical about the fifteen month jump but it worked. Loved the episode, I only wish we'd have gotten the three roommates finally reuniting but there's next week. So excited about Sally!
CONTINUED FROM BELOW...Anyway, Sam needs her to counterbalance his regularly scheduled hysterical rants, which seem to happen at least twice a day. Also loved how Aidan's internal psyche values his friends. They're really important to him. Awwwww...and their bickering with the Bishop Survival Mechanism is hysterical. Can't deny it though. He is compelling and sexy. I liked Soup Kitchen Witch. Where have I seen her before? She looks familiar. But not from this series. And, did anyone else catch that BEING HUMAN-themed car commercial? I usually fast forward thru all commercials. But, I'm glad I caught that one. Seems a little funny now that this series may have two of its main protagonists actually being human instead of supernatural.
The following comment is meant in the kindest possible way as a gentle suggestion...Please consider using punctuation when posting comments. It makes it much easier to read. FABULOUS EPISODE! Didn't realize how much I missed our supernatural roommates until I saw them onscreen together. What a nice ironic way to begin the new season considering they are really apart and have been for a long time. I'll be the odd man out and say that I like the new Nora. She's changed from the one in last season's finale. That Nora was clearly desperate and on her last nerve. But, this Nora is determined, purposeful, grounded and level-headed. And, face it, she doesn't have to be. She could have persuaded Sam to let it all go after 6 months. But, she hasn't. She's looking as hard for Sam's friends as he is. Aidan & Sally weren't that close to her. So, it seems like she's doing it all for Sam, and maybe because she doesn't want to be the only supernatural being in the neighborhood. Anyway, Sam needs her to keep him grounded while he flies off on his hysterical rants twice a day.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who don't like Nora... Besides that, the episode was great, I'm digging the new storylines the characters have but my only compliants is that Zoe should have been a series Regular besides Nora because she may have been a little corky, but she's a way better character than Nora and also Josh needs to stop being so whiny all the time... I know he wants to live a normal life but does he have to constantly b*tch about how hard things are? Man up, JOSH!!!
great episode way to staret the season non stop action keep up the good pace
Oh I missed this show so much!! I didn't like Nora much last season but she was ok this episode. I miss Julia. Didn't think I would but I do. She loved Josh so much. And now he's human they could have been together :(. Oh well. Like the Aidan storyline already. Much better than last season so far. Interesting storyline I've never hear of so I'm excited :) can't wait for Henry to make an appearance!!
are you crazy about Nora! she is the worst thing in the show! everything else was excellent yean I loved isoron loved how Ray was here and here is hoping his back from the dead and scratches josh again
It really was a great way to bring back a new take on this show. I don't agree that Ray was bad in fact it was Nora believing the evil wolf sister that precipitated the showdown between Sam and Ray. I really hope that Stevie and Nick made it back - but maybe as real ghosts before they were shredded. This new season has a lot of potential!

Weapons tests at Navy base will cause some big booms
The Fourth of July has come and gone, but that doesn't mean the sound of bombs bursting in air is over, at least in the Dahlgren area.
The Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division will conduct daily testing Thursday, Friday and Monday, between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. The munitions tests have the potential to produce loud noise, according to the base's communications office. A story in The Free Lance-Star said testing would take place over the weekend as well, but base officials said there was a miscommunication from the range control office on the dates, and that no weekend testing will be done.
Access to the Potomac River will be restricted down range near buoys 29 and 30 during testing.
According to the Navy base's website, the primary guns used on the Potomac River Test Range vary in size, scope and operation. Some gun systems evaluate new technology used in projectiles, propellants and firing controls.
Others are naval guns of several sizes used for anti-air, anti-surface and shore missions. One model, used on a combat ship, can fire 220 rounds per minute, according to the website.
The base in King George County attempts to be a "good neighbor" by managing the amount of noise it creates, its "Making Noise" fact sheet says. It has seven fixed sound meters along the Potomac River in Virginia, and one in Maryland, as well as a buoy with a sound meter west of Swan Point, along the Maryland shore.
Details about the schedule and affected areas are available online here or by calling the range's Weapons Testing Hotline at 877/845-5656.
Anyone with comments or complaints about noise or vibrations from base operations may call 866/359-5540.

HOUSTON (AP) - The San Francisco Giants have reinstated pitcher
Joe Martinez from the disabled list and optioned reliever Waldis Joaquin to Triple-A Fresno.
Martinez (1-0, 6.75 ERA) was to make his first major league start Wednesday against the Astros. He was hit in the head by a line drive by Milwaukee's Mike Cameron on April 9. The 26-year-old rookie right-hander suffered a concussion and three hairline fractures in his skull.
The 22-year-old Joaquin made his major league debut on Tuesday night, allowing a run on two hits in the Giants' 8-1 win over Houston. He had been recalled from Double-A Connecticut on Saturday.
The Giants also placed right-hander Henry Sosa on the 60-day DL with a torn shoulder muscle. Sosa was playing for Connecticut, but hadn't pitched since June 30.

Francessa deserves everything coming his way. The way he treats the callers, conducts interviews, and his love of bashing the Mets and Jets. The time has come for him to move on. As time goes on he gets angrier and angrier.
Francessa deserves everything coming his way. The way he treats the callers, conducts interviews, and his love of bashing the Mets and Jets. The time has come for him to move on. As time goes on he gets angrier and angrier.
It's a shame that New York doesn't have a good afternoon sports talk radio show.
Francessa is just angry and is a tough listen.
Michael Kay I just can't stand. I like LaGreca and would love him to have a show but Michael Kay is brutal as a sports talk host.
That's why his regular callers are such bores too. "Hey Mike, just wanted to wish you a happy early 4th of July. Wanted to get your thoughts on who you would put on the Mt. Rushmore of Yankee left fielders. I'll hang up and listen."
And that point you've fallen asleep and crashed into a tree.
There is nothing Jets related in the article. Please dump, move to garbage or close thread please.
His show has been garbage ever since Russo left. Not because Russo was some sort of gem, but frankly because Francesa couldn't hang up on him when he countered any of Mike's "points". Now Francesa is just a blowhard with a ton of (usually wrong) opinions on everything, while ridiculing and hanging up on anyone who points out his mistakes or a conflicting view. My personal favorite was how he went on a huge rant after the SD playoff gasme when a caller mentioned the Jets were playing zone defense in the first half and then switched back to man coverage in the second. It was obvious not only by watching the game, but for the fact Rex actually pointed that out in his postgame press conference as the reason they struggled in the first half and subsequently shut them down in the second. Francesa completely berated the guy for even considering the Jets played zone, pretty much called him an idiot and hung up on him when the guy was just bringing up a factual reason why the Jets played better in the second half.
Russo ironically is now just as bad on his own as well.
WFAN has some good hosts but they are on at different times or they go elsewhere so they can make a name for themselves. I would love to hear them replace some of the other guys but not happening. Be great to have Beningo and Roberts do the afternoon (like they do during the summer) and have Adam the Bull or someone else come in and do 10-1. Would love to see that but probably won't happen.
The thing with Francesca is the more people hate him or complain the more people will listen in to hear what he has to say. Its a love - hate relationship. He believes that what he is saying is true, so until proven wrong he will continue. His producers are just as at fault. Make sure that while he is making inaccurate statements you get him the correct information. I still laugh at the fact that he was underplaying the Blizzard of February 2013. He was yelling at callers that weather.com had Long Island getting only 9" snow and it will be nothing. Meanwhile they got 3 x that.
I also remember two Jet things with him other than the way he kills them now. Back in 2002 or 2003 the Jets started the fee to be on the waiting list for tickets. He grilled I believe Tannenbaum or Bradway at camp on the air until they said ok we will not waive it.
Back in 1998 he was Parcells buddy and he attended home games for the Jets and sat in the same seat. I was in the lot with my dad prior to the Jacksonville playoff game and he is ranting on the air that he wants the same tickets he has sat in past becuase they are lucky. So much that he said to people listening if you know the people in these seats tell them I will get them other seats. Then in Denver after Jets go up 10-0 Mike said he turned to his wife and said we are going to Super Bowl.
He is phony. He is a Yankee fan and a Jet hater.
why does anyone listen to the fat turd?

Winter weather outlook could improve
A storm system that could drop from one to three inches of rain in western Kansas the weekend of Oct. 8 would help replenish parched soils and get the just-planted 2012 wheat crop off to a good start. Moreover, for many farmers, this rain opportunity represents relief from a drought that has persisted since 2010.
This rain event could impact some of the most parched areas of western Kansas, from north to south, starting west and moving eastward very slowly, according to Jerilyn Billings, meteorologist at the National Weather Service in Wichita. Areas of western Oklahoma and Texas also could receive much-needed rain. "It's one of the best chances we've had in quite a while," Billings said.
Unfortunately, the relief is temporary, she added. "This system will provide some slight relief, but isn't going to break the drought. We need more and more of these storm cycles to break it."
The dry and warm pattern has been brought about by a La Nina pattern, in which Pacific Ocean surface temperatures are unusually cool. La Nina is a global phenomenon, which typically results in warmer and dryer than normal conditions in the central Plains. Unfortunately, La Nina has returned this fall and will continue into winter.
"The major climate patterns like La Nina have really affected us," Billings said. "We have a cycle of hot, dry weather that is just continuing. Thus, the rain showers we have received have not been well-organized, which results in isolated showers. We just haven't had good, organized weather patterns which lead to widespread rain events."
A line across Kansas represents the dividing line between normal temperatures and precipitation and below normal precipitation and higher temperatures. For that reason, southern Kansas will continue to experience dryer and warmer conditions than normal. In fact, historical data gathered by the National Weather Service in Wichita indicates that the probabilities of a warmer and drier than normal fall and winter tend to increase, after an extremely hot summer. That has been the case in 2011.
The weather outlook at the beginning of 2012, however, appears to be more optimistic. The Climate Prediction Center outlook from January to March says Kansas weather should be normal. "Neither temperatures nor precipitation should deviate a great deal from the 30-year normal," she said.
Getting back to normal would be a relief for many Kansas farmers, who have suffered dramatic crop losses due to weather extremes the last few years. And like all trends, this dry period will someday end, she added.
"These are just cycles. It was just a few years ago that we had excess rain. We will get back to normal again," Billings said.

Artist Daniel Gerhartz's new book, Not Far From Home,
is a visual compendium of his life's work as a painter. In it, you not
only find inspiring, lush photographs of Gerhart'z paintings, but
insightful and instructional information as well. To showcase all of
the great content in the book, culled from his career as a professional
painter, Gerhartz has created a blog dedicated to the lessons that provide a foundation for his work. One such lesson involves squinting. Here's what he has to say:
My answer to that is nada! Zippo! Zilch! As the weather
heats up from coast to coast, now is the time when artists turn their attention
to the excitement of landscape painting. But I'll be honest with you. I'm still
intimidated by the whole landscape painting process. There seems to be so much
to contend with-the weather, changing lighting conditions, the weather, packing
correctly...did I mention the weather?

By Geoff Ogilvy
with Michael Walker Jr.
If you had your "a-game" every round, golf would be easy. We all post low scores when we're splitting fairways, hitting pure irons and draining long putts. But what makes you a really good player and a tough-to-beat opponent is how you play when you've left your A-game (and maybe even your B-game) at home.
When you're not playing well, the worst thing to do is to try to hit perfect shots. Save the perfect shots for when you feel perfect. On days like this, you need to recognize what you still can do, and then use that to get the ball from tee to hole. You don't need to hit perfect shots to win if you're missing right, aim left and let it cut. That shot will feel more doable, and that's the name of the game when it feels like nothing's working.
If you start planning and executing shots no matter what shots they are your confidence will come back, and you may very well find that your game comes back with it. Here's how to make those mid-round fixes to your drives, iron shots, chips and putts that will get even your shakiest round back on track.

Charges Against O'Byrne Dropped
by Paul on 07/29/08 at 04:28 PM ET
Comments (0)
from the CP via the Toronto Star,
Charges levied against a Montreal Canadiens defenceman following an incident at a Tampa Bay nightclub last February have been dropped.
Ryan O'Byrne had been charged with grand theft.
State attorney Pam Bondi says the charges against the Victoria, B.C., native were dropped after he read an apology in court to the victim and agreed to do community service in Canada.

Harvey vs. Lidstrom
by Paul on 07/25/08 at 09:01 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Greatest Hockey Legends,
Now, on to Doug's question. Is Nicklas Lidstrom better than Doug Harvey?
I think history tends to nicely accept that Doug Harvey is the second best defenseman of all time, behind Bobby Orr, of course. In fact, most of the so called experts tend to place Harvey in top ten players of all time, regardless of position….
Doug Harvey was the epitome of hockey grace, and one of the few players in hockey history that could truly take control of a game all by himself.
Now that is awfully hard to compete against. Lidstrom is catching up, with more seasons ahead. He's got 4 Stanley Cup championships and 6 Norris Trophies. His career offensive numbers dwarf Harvey's, mind you that is due much to the very different eras each played in. Both are classic and near flawless defenders and both are dominant at both ends of the ice.

Sports Illustrated has asked its writers to pick their favourite venues.
Michael Farber chose the Forum. In recalling the ghosts, Farber writes:
They were in the rafters with the retired jerseys, stampeding with the fans when the doors opened before the game so they could get a good spot in the standing-room section, hanging out in the cramped corridors where they were getting two-packs-a-day's worth of second-hand smoke during intermissions…

Salary Cap Keys
by Paul on 07/20/08 at 10:09 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Stu Cowan of the Montreal Gazette,
The key to success in the salary-capped NHL is to build through the draft and spend your money wisely, two things Gainey has done extremely well. He has spread his money out evenly, with three players in the $5-million tax bracket (Markov, Roman Hamrlik and Alex Tanguay), two in the $4-million range (Saku Koivu and Kovalev) and one earning $3 million (Andrei Kostitsyn).
By comparison, the New York Rangers have five players earning more than Markov: Wade Redden and Scott Gomez ($8 million each), goaltender Henrik Lundqvist ($7.75 million), Chris Drury ($7.1 million) and Michal Rozsival ($7 million). Those five players will eat up 67 per cent of the Rangers' cap space.

Comments (0)
The Montreal Canadiens will host the 2009 NHL Entry Draft at Bell Centre, Montreal Canadiens Executive Vice President & General Manager Bob Gainey and the National Hockey League announced today. The Draft will be held over two days, Friday, June 26 and Saturday, June 27.

Pittsburgh Won't Forget Laraque
by Paul on 07/10/08 at 07:41 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Empty Netters,
Laraque was unlike anything we've seen here in Pittsburgh. He was a black hockey player of Haitian heritage who had corn rows, spoke two languages and dominated just about any fight he was a part of. He was so dominant of a fighter, many opposing goons just simply weren't all that eager to drop the gloves with "BGL." And when Laraque did get a chance to go at it, more often than not his fights were fairly boring due to Laraque's immense strength.
Our first chance to see Laraque ply his craft came in a game against the Rangers March 10, 2007. Colton Orr was the brave soul who decided he wanted to test Laraque:

Carbonneau Talks Canadiens
by Paul on 07/08/08 at 08:38 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Mike Boone of Habs Inside/Out,
When asked about Vancouver's offer, Carbonneau said "no one is going to spit on $20 million, but if competing offers are between $7 million and $8.5 million (per season), once you factor in taxes there's a difference of may $1 million, $1.5 million.
"I think Mats Sundin has plenty of money in the bank. Money won't necessarily be the deciding factor in where he chooses to finish his career.
"Everyone who knows Mats says he makes decisions when he's ready. I don't think he was ready July 1, and I think he's still not ready."
And with the Rangers and Detroit spending up to near the cap, Carbonneau says "I like our chances" of landing Sundin.

August 8, 2012
Amtrak and its partners completed phase one and two of a major upgrade of its Seattle maintenance facility. The facilities support Amtrak operations and maintenance agreements in the Pacific Northwest for the Empire Builder, Coast Starlight, Amtrak Cascades and Sounder commuter trains.The upgraded and new facilities will dramatically improve the capacity, efficiency and working conditions of the shops that perform inspections, testing and maintenance of locomotives, and passenger rail equipment. It is a modern and efficient facility capable of handling the current work levels as well as projected future service expansions."Improved service along the Cascade Corridor is an integral component of our overall strategy for improving transportation options for commuters and enhancing economic growth throughout the Pacific Northwest," said Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA). "This new facility is a great investment in moving our rapidly growing region forward and providing economic opportunity for our families and businesses."The upgraded maintenance facility, the first phase of the four-phase project, is an enclosed structure over two tracks. It will be primarily used by Talgo to maintain Amtrak Cascades trains however, the Amtrak long-distance and Sounder commuter trains will benefit from this investment. Amtrak Cascades is operated by Amtrak in partnership with the Washington and Oregon Departments of Transportation.Phase two, completed in December 2011, is a new three-story maintenance warehouse and administrative office that replaced functions formerly performed in trailers. The $37 million project was funded by Amtrak's annual capital program and provided for approximately 200 construction jobs.Amtrak has approved $1.4 million for the complete design of Phases three and four.Phase three will include a construction of a service and inspection building for Amtrak long-distance and Sound Transit trains. Phase four involves construction of a new locomotive servicing and repair building. It is estimated 150 construction jobs will be generated annually during the life of the project.In the past year, Amtrak has completed major upgrades at two other maintenance facilities in Los Angeles, Calif., and Hialeah, Fla.
