When it comes to weather, the Valley turned it's attention from snow to possible freezing rain and ice Thursday. These make for even more dangerous driving conditions.
Timmy Fitzgerald, Verona residency office, says, crews have been preparing all day for the expected slick roads.
Fitzgerald says the mix of salt and chemicals used Thursday night is more abrasive than the ones used for snow to help drivers with traction issues.
"We've been focusing on the interstates and primaries [streets]. So throughout the night, we'll be working on the secondary roads, plowing them, putting some chemical on them, and also monitoring the primaries and interstate as well," says Fitzgerald.
VDOT would like to remind drivers to take extreme caution when driving in slick road conditions Thursday night and Friday morning.

POLITICO's Cartoon Carousel: The nation's cartoonists' take on the week in politics
Every week political cartoonists across the country and across the political spectrum apply their ink-stained skills to capture the foibles, memes, hypocrisies and other head-slapping events in the world of politics. The fruits of these labors are hundreds of cartoons that entertain and enrage readers of all political stripes. Here's an offering of the best of this week's crop, picked fresh off the Toonosphere. Edited by Matt Wuerker.
10 quotes: Why Ferguson is like war zone
As newspapers display images of protesters throwing Molotov cocktails and broadcasts include first hand accounts describing the experience of being hit by tear gas, the scene unfolding in Ferguson, Missouri, continues to look like a "war zone." A growing number of politicians, journalists and activists have started to take notice in the past week, and are drawing similarities between the small town in Missouri and areas farther from home, such as Iraq and Gaza.
PHOTOS: Politicians' mugshots
Rick Perry isn't the first politician to have been indicted. Here are mugshots for other politicians who have been arrested during their time in office.
PHOTOS: Chaos continues in Ferguson
Unrest and protests continue more than a week after unarmed 18-year-old Michael Brown was shot and killed by a police officer in Ferguson, Mo. On Monday night and Tuesday morning, authorities arrested more than 30 people and two people were wounded by gunfire as a small group of people set fires in the street and opened fire on officers, according to Missouri Highway Patrol Capt. Ron Johnson.
Dynasties in 2014 Senate races
A surprising number of this year's marquee Senate races will put political dynasties to the test. Democratic Arkansas Sen. Mark Pryor is leaning on a half-century of accumulated goodwill associated with his family's name to hold his father's old Senate seat. But he is not alone.
How well do you know Maureen Dowd?
New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd has made a name for herself for her sharp criticism, wit and analysis as one of the newspaper's two female columnists. Her biweekly columns appear on the pages of The New York Times each Sunday and Wednesday and cover topics such as her recently infamous bout trying edible pot. But how well do you know Maureen Dowd?

Funeral for U.S. Army Maj. Gen. Harold Greene
U.S. Army Maj. Gen. Harold Greene was buried Aug. 14 in Section 60 of Arlington National Cemetery, outside Washington, D.C. Maj. Gen. Greene, who was gunned down Aug. 5 while visiting an Afghan military academy, was the highest-ranking Army officer to be killed in combat since the Vietnam War.
Images from unrest in Ferguson
Violence flared again in the town of Ferguson, Missouri, late Saturday into Sunday morning as many of the demonstrators protesting the shooting of an unarmed teen refused to obey the midnight curfew set by Gov. Jay Nixon.

Politicians hugging it out
A collection of the best of politicians' lengthy embraces, suspended hover-hands and just plain awkward hugs.
Lauren Bacall and politics
Actress Lauren Bacall died Tuesday at the age of 89. Beginning with her stunning movie debut in 1944 opposite future husband Humphrey Bogart in Howard Hawks' "To Have and Have Not," she spent 70 years acting and interacting with some of the most fascinating people of the era (including her cousin Shimon Peres, the Israeli political leader). Some of that interaction took the form of political and social activism; here are some of those moments.

Robin Williams and politics
Actor-comedian Robin Williams was found dead Monday at age 63 in San Rafael, Calif. Over the years, he moved beyond his movie and TV roles to work on a number of political and social causes. Here are some of those moments.
How well do you know Justin Amash?
Rep. Justin Amash beat his primary challenger Brian Ellis in Michigan's 3rd Congressional District last week — but the real headlines came from his victory speech, when he demanded an apology from Ellis for his attack ads and berated fellow Michigan Republicans. How much do you know about the outspoken libertarian? Take our quiz to find out.
25 longest-serving senators
Here are the 25 people who have served the longest terms as of August 2014, according to the U.S. Senate. (Terms are exact to the day for those no longer serving; the terms of those who are still in the Senate are rounded to the nearest month.)
Is this like Watergate?
Forty years after Richard Nixon resigned the presidency because of the Watergate scandal, here are 10 times Washington's favorite analogy has been invoked recently.

November 7, 2005
Did you know the Fourth of July is a day that stands out in American history not only because of the Declaration of Independence, but because of death? Venton Blandin has a look at this presidential story.
Born in Port Conway, Virginia in 1751, the fourth president, James Madison is perhaps best known as the 'Father of the Constitution.'
"Going into the Constitutional Convention, he had ideas of how best to frame the U.S. Constitution, [and] how best to put together the checks and balances," said Rick Britton, a Virginia Historian.
In 1817, at the end of his two-term presidency, Madison and his wife Dolley retired to Montpelier in Orange County. This is a mere 28 miles north of Thomas Jefferson's home of Monticello.
During the president's retirement several of the earlier presidents started to pass away.
"The second and third Presidents of the United States, Johns Adams and Thomas Jefferson respectively, both died on July 4th, 1826. This was the 50th anniversary to the day of the adoption of the Declaration of Independence," added Britton.
Both men had been signers. Both men had been Presidents of the United States.
"There had been a rift between the two of them, but later on in their lives they were reconciled. There's a whole series of great letters between the two in their latter years," explained Britton.
Five years later, the fifth president James Monroe, died on Independence Day. The nation lost three of its first five presidents on the 4th of July.
"Americans in those days, thought they saw in this, the hand of God," said Britton.
Five more years later, in late June of 1836, the fourth president's health was beginning to fail. James Madison, now 85 years old, was withered and frail, but his famous wit was still sharp. When his doctor Robley Dunglison, also President Jefferson's doctor, suggested injecting stimulants so Madison might linger long enough to also pass away on the fourth, the ex-president declined.
"Wisely I think, he would have made four out of the first five Presidents of the United States. I think that would have been just too much for the nation all dead on the Fourth of July."
Dr. Dunglison was the direct link between Presidents Jefferson and Madison after Madison taught at the University of Virginia for one year under Jefferson. Dunglison later became known as the "Father of American physiology.
President Madison died June 28, just six days before the 4th of July.

- Great Restaurant!NewcomerVIPDined on 11/18/2014Absolutely loved the ambiance and the food at the Herringbone. Our waitress was a gem, had the best experience and food. Recommend this restaurant highly.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- AMAZING!!!!!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/15/2014We celebrated my Husband's 50th Birthday here for dinner and WOW! The service was outstanding (Courtney was our waitress), food was simply amazing, the entire atmosphere was spectacular!!! Loved how the management came around ensuring that everything was meeting our expectations in regards to service, drinks and food....this seems to be a rarity anymore. We enjoyed the Scallops, Ahi Tuna, wines, bourbons and desserts......all were outstanding!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Worth a tryemmemmellDined on 11/15/2014It was our first time here. We were seated by the side area near the bar and it was quite loud with the DJ and all the people there. The food was good but not terribly unique. The scallops were a tad overdone and tasted all right. The skate wing tasted better but was a bit burnt on the edges. The brussel sprouts were so-so... not sure what everyone was raving about on Y---. I mean, they still taste and definitely smell like brussel sprouts. Best parts of our meal were the fries and the moist, tender dessert donuts -- yum! Maybe we'll try this place again for lunch but it's quite pricy for dinner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not worth the hypeTouristDined on 11/15/2014Yes, there are trees in the restaurant. But the decor is overly self-conscious. The acoustics terrible and the tables jammed together like a food hall. It was very difficult to get the attention of the overworked waitstaff.
- Great BrunchJayJVIPDined on 11/15/2014Thanks to Herringbone for remembering the note regarding our anniversary. The service was excellent and the attention at our table was perfect. Not too invasive and not too scares Will make sure to come again for dinner!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Consistently greatJtciiiVIPDined on 11/13/2014Seasonal changes in the menu are spot on. Herringbone continues to deliver a high-quality dining experience season after season. Highlights included the buffalo sauce octopus, the roast chicken, in the signature sundaeSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- niceanniversary0807Dined on 11/9/2014very nice to take a friend from out of town. Great quality food, helpful service, and love the decorSpecial Features:
- Fabulous brunchMomof3VIPDined on 11/9/2014Wow!! First time here and all I can say is I can't wait to come back for brunch next weekend. The eggs Benedict was the best I ever had. The pototes were so good my kids ordered an extra side of them to share. And did I mention bottomless mimosas for $12! And there was live music tooSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very Enjoyabledmc11Dined on 11/9/2014The ambiance was fantastic. Eating beneath the olive trees in the rustic but charming "warehouse"dining area was lovely. The food was great, too. The lobster roll was amazing with the most buttery brioche roll. The raw Oysters were fresh and delicious. Even the burger was sublime as was the beet salad.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A bar?GuilhermeDined on 11/8/2014The food is extremely salty. We were 4 friends and we had a night of thirst. The taste? None if it wasn't for the exageration on the use of spices. My "medium rare" tuna was almost raw, then super well done and then finally ok (I am referring to this strict aspect). My wife and friends food was terrible. Never going back.Special Features:
- awfulOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 11/8/2014noisy and awful food, it is a bar not a restaurant.Special Features:
- Noisy but memorableGoatdinnerDined on 11/7/2014I have eaten at Herringbone many times and love the ambiance and the good and drink selections. This time we visited with a full dining room in the rear of the restaurant and I was surprised at how noisy it was. Not the best for a small dinner with an elderly crowd :-) the youngsters around us were clearly loving it, though...Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- meimeiDined on 11/7/2014Great service, food and atmosphere. A MUST-GO! I loved the two bars in the restaurant, and the trees in the middle of the dining room is very inviting; it makes you feel like you are outdoors.Special Features:
- Good food great serviceNannersDined on 11/7/2014This was our second time here. The food is quite good but the service is even better. I wish I got her name because she made our dining experience that much better!Special Features:
- Fabulous!SammDined on 11/7/2014Service was outstanding from our server to the guy who kept our water glasses full. Order the Lobster Roll; you will love it!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- LovelyHCandCRDined on 11/2/2014We spent a lovely Sunday evening here. The staff was very nice and they treated us to a dessert bc they knew it was our 3-year anniversary. The full bass was so unbelievably delicious we have got to take our parents there when they visit. Thank you, Herringbone, for making our special night so special!Special Features:
- Neighborhood GemLaJollaBobDined on 11/1/2014Service was outstanding and the ambiance was refreshing. We enjoyed the creative appeal of the appetizers and the sherbet dessert. The halibut was delicious, although the medium cooked salmon was on the dry side. Portions were more than adequate. Valet parking was a plus.Special Features:
- Great food!33birthdayDined on 10/31/2014Really enjoyed the excellent food and good service. My only complaint was the high noise.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Eclectic EatsJayfranDined on 10/29/2014This is a fun place to eat right. The food is neither comfort nor common--it is carefully planned and executed and to near perfection. The selections are allergen friendly to boot, adding to the very apparent sharp focus of the restaurant on the customer's needs. The server was adept at describing the dishes, understanding the intent of the chef in the flavor profiles, and in making sure the customer gets what is best. The open and well lit atmosphere adds to the overall experience in a good way. Overall a satisfying experience.Special Features:
- New on my favorites listDining4luvDined on 10/29/2014This was first time at Herringbone, but not my last. This vintage warehouse with six decades-old olive trees is beautifully casual. We started with an Albacore tartare and shrimp toast, accompanied by a bottle of Trinitas Chardonnay. The tartare was good, but unremarkable. The toast had a bold shrimp flavor with just enough bread. I selected the Skate Wing Schnitzel, a preparation that hides, rather than accents, the delicate flavor of the Skate. Although this is primarily a seafood restaurant, my friend chose the Angus Short Rib which was beautifully cooked and sauced for a mouthwatering meaty meal. Favorably impressed with Herringbone, we returned the next night for their fresh, plump and delicious $1 oysters. My best oysters in decades.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 10/27/2014Great ambiance. Very attentive staff. The food was moderate in its preparation. Sauces for skate and hallibut were a bit heavy.Special Features:
- Fabulous vibe and settingOutandaboutDined on 10/25/2014Herringbone is a really cool hip restaurant in the middle of downtown La Jolla. Much more the "city vibe" than I would have expected and it was great. The interior space is amazing! We at at the back bar so didn't sit at a table for dinner, but the bar was great and the bar tender was excellent. We ordered the "pea" salad which didn't have many peas in it, but the pizza and soup were excellent. Will definitely go back!Special Features:
- Excellent Meal, Service & Vibe!BirkieDined on 10/25/2014Really unique atmosphere, the olive trees throughout the dining area, fireplace, two bars, excellent menu selections. We had fantastic service!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great place to eatIngaDined on 10/23/2014Pleasant experience . My Salmon dish was very tasty. The Salmon was moist not overcooked. My friend had the same and liked it also. We had appetizer at the bar and they were delishes. Service was excellent. I will come back and try other dishes.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- A Must Try In La JollaTadErickVIPDined on 10/15/2014Wow! What a terrific experience it was dining at Herringbone! We were greeted by a team of friendly, courteous, and professionals who welcomed us and immediately made us feel welcome. We enjoyed one of their specialty cocktails and it was amazing. Corey, our server, did a tremendous job. He knew the menu exceptionally well and helped us choose from the many intriguing dishes offered. He was timely, professional, and fun throughout the evening. Brian, the manager, is, as we had been told, a friendly and attentive man who makes sure that all of the restaurants guests are enjoying themselves. He stopped and talked with us a few times to make sure everything was good. I will be looking forward to going back again soon!!!!Special Features:

- A bit disappointedNancyVIPDined on 10/11/2014Our food was good but not as delicious as we remembered it from our past experiences there. We could hardly hear the waiter as there was music that was blasting. I don't remember that being an issue before either.I would recommend this to a friend.

The waiter was super knowledgable about recommendations, types of meat/fish, and very helpful with the wine list. We celebrated a birthday and they brought out a beautiful dessert. Made the night very special!Special Features:
- Amazing FoodlhksdDined on 9/27/2014This is a great, high class restaurant with food that will not disappoint. It can be very busy on weekends, so make reservations. Even with reservations, expect to be seated late. The waitress that helped us in the bar area started off on a bad foot. She clearly didn't care about helping us as we were just waiting for our table to be ready. However, the waitress that helped us the rest of the evening was great and very attentive. Drinks are good, but not amazing. The entrees and sides were wonderful. I've been for brunch/lunch before and was not thrilled. Dinner was great though!Special Features:
- Excellent dinner, too noisy!33birthdayDined on 9/26/2014My only criticism was the very high noise level. a conversation was practically impossible. My group did not resort to texting, it is not our thing! I can undestand that it might have been useful!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Took my friend here for her b-daycollegeeatsDined on 9/26/2014Wanted to go somewhere good for my girl friend's birthday, so I found Herringbone online and was really fascinated by their decor. The olive trees growing right in the restaurant really caught my eye, so we decided to go. Everything was delicious! The oysters were fantastic in particular, and it was brilliant that they bring out olives in lieu of the usual bread before dinner. Overall definitely a fantastic experience! My friend was very impressed with the food and atmosphere. It's a little pricey for regular dining, but for special occasions it's excellent. Thanks for helping me give my friend a fantastic birthday dinner!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great spot - food just okayOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/25/2014The atmosphere and decor - outstanding. The food was just okay. Not bad but not great, however also taking into consideration that it was restaurant week so I'm sure the kitchen was extremely busy.Special Features:
- Fresh, delicious and memorableHippocratesDined on 9/23/2014Our waiter, Rune, gave us great advice, and the wine pairings brought out the complex flavors of our appetizers and entrees. The atmosphere is very energetic and not conducive to intimate conversation; however, if you're in the mood for great food and a lively vibe, you'll enjoy dining at Herringbone.Special Features:
- Didn't Like the Food At AllyuckDined on 9/23/2014Shame. It was so highly recommended. We went there for Restaurant Week. They did not offer their happy hour or any other menu items. I had the scallops. They were gritty. The appetizer was the octopus and it was also slightly gritty. Very odd. The opening item was the oysters - also gritty. The scallops had a nice flavor but hard to get away from the fact that they hadn't been cleaned properly.
- Disappointing RW LunchOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/23/2014Decor was inspired; however the food was not. It was a terrible introduction for Restaurant Week: the Two Handed Burger on the rare side of what was ordered, the both sides of chips seemed as if they were held under the warmer (and few things are worse than warm fried foods), the Albacore Burger was an terrible ground meat version of what looked like a great meal (and had a stray piece of plastic in it to boot). A four top of guys came in much after us and received their meals way ahead of us. Our waiter got sidetracked by a table of 10 ladies beside us and we were left being served by the Hostess/Manager. (As a side note, we ate at Kitchen 1540 for RW and it was INCREDIBLE and MEMORABLE.)Special Features:
- Everything was great except chairVS858Dined on 9/22/2014Everything was great except when we got up to leave I noticed there was a sticky stain on the back on my skirt, apparently there were syrup/frosting on the chair cushion from the previous guess. The cushions were dark prints so there was no way to see it before sitting down.Special Features:

Yes, plastic "jimmies" in bright colors. I'm not sure if the idea was that you'd brush them off your food before eating them, or if they were supposed to pass harmlessly through the digestive tract, but yes, this chef came from Seattle to new York and made a big splash for maybe 20 minutes on the New York food scene with Pacific- Northwest-inspired-but-otherwise unremarkable food, covered with brightly colored, gold, and silver plastic jimmies on non-desserts. I _think_ she's managed to live it down and actually acquire a reputation for real food. There was a short-lived TV series called Tattinger's in the late 80's, wherein Mary Beth Hurt portrayed a character based on the real Kathy Casey. I think she put plastic on the food in the TV show, too... Adamantius, eternal foe of all inedible garnishes, and most non- incorporated, non-component ones as well

When you say that you have moved the B1 around, what did you mean? Have you tried different corners of the room, different distances from each corner, etc? Also, the perceived amount of bass extension can change based on your listening position within the room. For example, if your seating area is in the center of the room, you'll have less perceived bass volume and extension as opposed to moving your seating position perhaps a just foot forward or rearwards in the room.
I am wondering how it compares to other REL subs, since the G1 seems to be quite different when it comes to shape and woofer material. I am still happy with my B1, though I wish it had a nice remote and I wish I had a larger room to make it breath. I had to bring the gain and crossover down even further since I got my Dynaudio Confidence C1's.
This place needs more love for REL subs hehe.. I am still wondering what the T5 sounds like compared to the old Quake2.

The Iranian File
February 3, 2014
Whilst stating that Iran is "not a military aggressor", Iran's foreign minister Javad Mohammad Zarif expressed his confidence in a full nuclear deal between the Islamic Republic and world powers being struck by July 2014.
February 2, 2014
As the beginning phases of Iran's nuclear deal take shape, previously frozen funds are being released for use in the process.
Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said that the "illusions of power" surrounding the Syrian opposition -who he says has little control inside Syria - is not helping to achieve a peaceful resolution to the country's crisis.
January 31, 2014
Former U.S. ambassador Frederic Hof has revealed that Iranian officials, in private meetings, told him that Iran is not in conflict with the U.S. or Israel but rather believe Saudi Arabia to be the main threat considering its perceived tampering in Syria.
The world's chemical watchdog called Friday for Syria to "pick up the pace" in shipping out its chemical weapons stockpile after a key deadline was missed, Agence France-Presse reported.
Iran has a chance to play a constructive role in bringing stability to Syria and the broader region, former U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan said Thursday.
January 27, 2014
A report recently released by the Iranian military criticizes the US for being a violator of human rights.
Iran nuclear talks with world powers will resume in late February in New York, according to reports Monday.
A minor earthquake shook southern Iran although no damages have been reported.
January 26, 2014
Former UN chief Kofi Annan arrived in Iran Sunday in a visit "aimed at boosting dialogue between Iran and the international community.
Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Saturday that talks with world powers to reach a long-term nuclear deal will resume next month.
January 23, 2014
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said Thursday that the Islamic Republic wants to pursue constructive relationships with its regional neighbours, and that it has no intention of acquiring nukes.
Iran's President Hassan Rouhani told reporters this week that Tehran will normalize relations with Europe once the interim nuclear accord is implemented.
January 20, 2014
Iran's invitation has stirred controversy ahead of the highly-anticipated Syrian peace talks. France has called on Tehran to "accept the creation of a transitional government" or forego attending the conference altogether, and the Syrian opposition announced that they will not attend if Iran is present.
Iran is looking forward to the beginning of agreements made in Geneva to include the lifting of some US sanctions.

Final Thoughts: Rushing Offense, Pass Rush Key Vikings VictoryPosted by on October 23, 2012 – 6:20 am
The Vikings have a quick turnaround this week, as they're slated to play on Thursday night in a game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. We'll turn our full attention to the Vikings-Buccaneers matchup later on Tuesday. But first, here are a few final thoughts from the Vikings 21-14 victory over the Arizona Cardinals.
Getting Home With Four
We identified rushing four defensive linemen and dropping seven defenders into coverage as the defensive key to the game in last week's Verizon Wireless Winning Formula. The Vikings identified the same strategy as the way to contain Arizona's offense, and it worked. Cardinals QB John Skelton was sacked 7 times in the game and was constantly under duress. That disrupted the Cardinals passing game and it prevented superstar WR Larry Fitzgerald from ever becoming a factor.
"That was the goal, to go into this game and be able to generate a pass rush without having to bring five or six guys," Vikings Head Coach Leslie Frazier said on Monday. "Our D-line stepped up to challenge. They dominated just like we hoped they would. It really took a lot of pressure off our secondary and helped them to play a very good game as well. It was great execution, but it started with our guys up front."
Of the Vikings 7 sacks, 6.0 of them came from defensive linemen. DE Brian Robison had 3.0, DE Jared Allen had 2.0 and DT Kevin Williams had 1.0. The other sack went to CB Antoine Winfield (more on that play later). The pressure generated by the Vikings front four allowed the Vikings secondary and LBs to focus on Arizona's receivers, specifically Fitzgerald. Only one other team this year (New England Patriots) has held Fitzgerald to fewer catches and receptions than the Vikings, who held the former Holy Angels (Richfield, MN) star to 4 receptions for 29 yards.
Run It, All Day
When you play the Vikings, you know you have to buckle it up and get ready to stop Adrian Peterson. But then, when you're able to shut down the Vikings passing game almost entirely, you surely know Peterson will be coming at you. Even so, Arizona could not stop the best RB in the NFL. Peterson had his best day on the field since returning from his knee injury, carrying the ball 23 times for 153 yards and 1 TD. On the Vikings two TD drives, Peterson carried the ball a total of 8 times for 87 yards.
Perhaps most impressive about the Vikings rushing performance was the fact that they did it despite Arizona consistently stacking the box to try and slow #28.
"For our running back, Adrian Peterson, who is the premier back, to know they're going to be in eight-man fronts, nine-man fronts at a time, and be able to rush for 153 yards, that's the formula for success if you're in a tough situation throwing the football," Frazier said. "Credit our guys for buying into that philosophy and finding a way to get a win."
What I also loved to see was the way the Vikings finished the game. The Vikings were in a precarious situation, holding on to a 7-point lead with :14 to play in the game and a 4th and 5 from the Arizona 33. There was too much time remaining to kneel again because that would give the Cardinals the ball on about the 35 with 12 or so seconds to go. They could use one quick pass to the sideline to put themselves in position to throw a hail mary. Trying a FG was an option, but a miss would give the Cardinals the ball at the spot of the hold, with a chance at a hail mary on the following play. So what did the Vikings do? They gave it to Peterson.
The result was good – an 8-yard gain up the middle for the 1st down, permitting the clock to tick down to zero.
Key Play: Antoine Winfield's 4th-Down Sack
A key moment in the game came at the 7:47 mark in the 3rd quarter, with Arizona facing a 4th and 2 from the Minnesota 18. The Vikings just took a 21-7 lead on the previous series when Harrison Smith returned an INT 31 yards for a touchdown. With a makeable distance to go on 4th down inside the red zone, Arizona decided a FG wasn't going to do much for them, so they decided to go for it.
It didn't work out.
Skelton took the snap and rolled to his right, looking for a receiver in the right flat. That receiver was blanketed by Winfield, so Skelton tucked the ball and attempted to run for the 1st down. Being chased by Robison, Skelton sprinted toward the sideline and the 1st down marker, which prompted Winfield to come off his coverage at the just the right time and administer a crushing blow to Skelton before he could reach the 1st down marker – before he could even get back to the line of scrimmage. Robison got there a split-second later to increase the punishment, and the Cardinals turned the ball over on downs.
It was one of those signature plays from Winfield, a defender who plays with a unique blend of calculation and tenacity.
Vikings Neutralize Patrick Peterson
When it comes to punt returners in the NFL, Patrick Peterson has been Superman. He had a record-setting season returning punts last year as a rookie, scoring 4 TDs and totaling 699 yards on 44 returns. The 4 return TDs tied the NFL single-season record and set a franchise record, and the 699 return yards established an NFL rookie record and ranks as the 2nd-highest single-season total in NFL history (Desmond Howard, 875, 1996).
But when it comes to defending punt returners in the NFL, the Vikings have been Peterson's Kryptonite. In last year's matchup, Peterson had zero return yards on 4 Vikings punt. In Sunday's matchup, Peterson had 7 total return yards on another 4 Vikings punts. Credit goes to Vikings Special Teams Coordinator Mike Priefer, P Chris Kluwe and the team's punt coverage crew for finding a way to neutralize the explosive and dynamic Peterson.
Harrison Smith's Temperament Impresses
Vikings rookie S Harrison Smith is off to a fantastic start. Even before his 31-yard pick 6 this past Sunday, Smith was having a great season. Add in that play, which was ultimately the game-winning score, and you can't be anything but completely excited about how much of an impact player Smith will be for this Vikings defense.
Smith plays the safety position in a way we haven't seen very much in Minnesota. He's been fined for illegal hits and he's been penalized for mixing it up after a play. But the penalties and/or fines that Smith has received after a couple of big-time hits have not caused Smith to temper his aggressiveness. He's learning to modify his play so that he can remain aggressive while playing within the rules.
"Sometimes when you get fined as often as he's gotten fined in these first seven games, it can temper your emotions and make you start playing a little tentatively," Frazier explained. "And that hasn't been the case with him. He's been aggressive. He's still in-tune with everything we're trying to get done. He doesn't seem to be sidetracked by anything that happened.
"I remember explaining to him about horse collaring and what happened a week ago against Washington and talking him through it again, although we've covered this before. And he said, 'Okay, I understand.' Then he just moved on, and that's the attitude you want to see."
Now Smith adds a defensive touchdown to his body of work in the NFL. Typically, players who bring that much to the table are emotional and volatile by nature. But that's not the case with Smith, and that's impressed Frazier as well.
"His resiliency, his maturity is very, very impressive," Frazier said. "He's a bright guy and very athletic but his maturity and just not letting stuff hang on to him that can be negative, that's impressive."

Searching for Safe Water in New York City on World Water Day
What would happen if the water supply to largest city in the wealthiest country of the world is suddenly cut off?
Middle East; Iraq; Ebola
Middle East: During the last 48 hours of the continued ceasefire, humanitarian workers have delivered food to hundreds of thousands of people, repaired water and sanitation infrastructure, re-stocked medical supplies, and some of the 520,000 displaced Palestinians have returned to their homes. However, UN Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator remarked the scale of needs remains "unprecedented in the Gaza Strip."
Middle East; Ebola; South Sudan
Middle East: At today's informal session of the General Assembly on Gaza the SG remarked that the most recent ceasefire has held since yesterday at 8 a.m. local time. He noted that a durable ceasefire is necessary and UN shelters must continue to remain safe zones. The SG thanked UN staff in Gaza and will fly the UN flag at half-mast tomorrow in memory of those who died in the conflict.
Middle East; Ebola; Syria
Middle East: The SG commended Israeli and Palestinian parties for committing to a 72-hour ceasefire that took place at 8 a.m. local time today. He urges all parties to abide by the ceasefire and commence peace talks in Cairo to address underlying issues and agree on a durable ceasefire to sustainably stop the violence. The UN lends its full support toward these efforts.
Middle East; Iraq; Afghanistan
Middle East: The SG condemned yesterday's shelling outside of an UNRWA school in Rafah that killed at least 10 Palestinian civilians. The SG stated that the attack violated international humanitarian law and UN shelters must continue to be safe zones and not combat zones.

|LONDON: Jacques Tardi at Comica
|Written by Jen Vaughn | Filed under Jacques Tardi, events
|6 Nov 2014 3:14 PM
Comica continues rolling out the great cartoonists with Jacques Tardi. On Monday, November 10th, one hundred years after the outbreak of The Great War, Tardi makes his first ever public interview in Britain. He will be in conversation with Pat Mills, writer of Charley's War, the compelling saga of a young Cockney private enduring The First World War. An exceptional, unmissable encounter between two passionate anti-War comics creators. You can find these two in conversation at Foyles Bookshop, in The Auditorium, Level 6 (107 Charing Cross Road, WC2H 0DT) from 7-8:30pm. Tickets are on sale here at the Comica site.
Meanwhile on 11th November, the anniversary of the First World War Armistice, Jacques Tardi, and his wife, the singer-songwriter Dominique Grange, will perform their work, Putain de guerre! (Goddamn This War!), a performance combining songs, readings and images in French & English, in the Ciné Lumière at the Institut Français in South Kensington from 7-8:30pm.
In a poignant evocation of the First World War, Grange will perform music from her own repertoire, as well as songs by unknown soldiers and pieces by Aragon and Ferré. Tardi will read caustic excerpts from Goddamn This War!, which he created in collaboration with the historian Jean-Pierre Verney, while his images, taken from the same work, will be shown on screen. They will be accompanied on stage by five musicians from the Accordzeam group. Followed by a book signing. Book your tickets at the Institut Français website.
The rest of us on this side of the pond will just have to be content to read the dark, beautiful new boxset, Tardi's WWI.

What exactly is a Padre? Is that Spanish for priest?
spanish for "father." so yes.
Thanks for the new thread, JW.
MG, you asked about Nola.
@ChrisBranchTNJ: Ruben says Nola will likely start at Single-A Clearwater, but "maybe higher than that."
This feels like a loss.
I don't know how to post pictures here, but this link is to a picture that shows how sidearmed Nola's deliver is. It's interesting that he can have such great control with such a sidearm type of delivery, but I'm eager to see how he does.
Looks like Tommy John Surgery waiting to happen.
This is probably, easily, the most fun at the ballpark tonight:

The above Instagram link is to a short video, by the way.
Another amusing tweet:
Chris Branch @ChrisBranchTNJ 3m
As of the press conference, Nola had only met one Phillie: the myth, the legend, the MANSHIP.
* * *
I'm going to miss Chris Branch's tweets when he moves on to Huffington Post soon.
Wow, is that a boring logo.
The boringness of the logo is only matched by the terrifyingness of the Padres' mascot.
Do they still have the chicken mascot or did he contract bird flu?
Having a team named after priests is not exactly the toughest sounding team sports name.
The chicken was nixed for the Friar, I believe. In fact, I think the chicken was never the official mascot of the Padres, so much as an advertising mascot.
I am no expert, but I would think that Nola's lower arm slot would put less stress on his shoulder.
Reminds me of a right-handed Chris Sale.
So it looks like a number of our earlier draft picks from last year are going to repeat rookie ball again?
I notice that 4 of the top 10 (we actually signed) from the 2013 draft class don't have any stats for the 2014 season - Sandberg, Sweaney, Williams and Keys.
Or am I just missing something?
"Phillies Introduce Nola, Oliver"
"So it looks like a number of our earlier draft picks from last year are going to repeat rookie ball again?"
That's pretty standard with high school draftees, even high ones. If a high school draft pick is playing full-season ball by Year 2, he's way ahead of the curve. On the other hand, if he's still in rookie ball by year 3, that's a pretty bad sign.
Ah, I had it mixed up when Williamsport began. I thought they just finished early, but started in May.
I see now that they actually begin... Well, now.
It's absolutley downpouring here in Baltimore. I predict a stoppage in the bottom of the 4th.
Ugh, Howard.
Second batter in, and a walk.
Oh, and thanks, Howard, for that error to make the routine out a runner on 1st and 3rd with one out, instead.
Thankfully, AJ and JRoll did what they had to do.
That looked pretty close to me. Time for the Sandberg Shuffle out to 1st...
Although Jimmy looks like he's grabbing his leg a bit. That's bad.
Burnett will pitch great tonight,dropped him from my fantasy team.
4 pitches, 2 outs.
Sure glad somebody like Chooch is batting 7th.
Has Revere been practicing bunting or working on padding his MLB lead in dribblers back to the pitcher?
There's a lot of terrible baseball nicknames. I mean, who today would think it would be a good idea to name their team after a pair of socks - even if it had something to do with the uniform?
I mean, as far as bad baseball nicknames, can we really throw stones?
Wow, nice glove by Revere there.
Awesome catch by Revere
(cue his detractors with the "bad route" complaints)
I so enjoy listening to Moyer talk about pitching and game fundamentals and tips. He seems like he'd make a great coach.
Nice catch by Revere there. Nice couple of innings for Burnett (knocking wood now).
Did they flash a stat that the Phillies have allowed 130+ walks in the past 30+ games? That's startlingly bad.
Revere actually ran a pretty good route on that one. He started going back a little more than necessary, but he readjusted quickly.
Yes they did, GBrett. 134 walks in 32 games. 10-22 in that span.
Good thing Howard didn't walk there.
After dribblers back to the pitcher, Revere's 2nd-best tool is making routine catches look much harder than necessary.
Battle of futility.
I notice that the box Nola's headset is plugged into has "Matt" written on sharpie on a piece of yellow duct tape.
Yes, Aaron Nola. It's not even close to being packed because of the rain and the weather. That's it.
Nice of young Nola to mention only the rain as a reason for the sparse crowd, and not bring up the dismal state of the team.
In the battle of bad baseball teams, the Padres just took the advantage.
I imagine that Nola didn't really follow the Phillies' home game ticket sales over recent years closely enough to make that assumption. The Braves are a good example of success not breeding attendance.
Pft. Cesar really looking to earn that second demotion.
Revere just misses HR #2.
Almost had career HR #2 there!
I know, I was rooting for it to go out!
For a weak-wristed guy that can't hit the ball out of the infield, Benji put quite the charge on that one.
J-Roll's doing his part to kill the momentum, though.
Nice hit, Utley! Way to go get that low ball!
It seems to me that Rollins has hit far fewer pop-ups this year than the past few years. I have not missed them.
You could really see Revere load up on the front foot with that swing. He was trying for #2.
If he can put that kind of a charge on the ball more often, coupled with his usual array of dribbly singles, he'll be a positive at the plate.
Nice work by Howard there flipping it over the shift.
Futility reigns!
Byrd with the hit that sails out of the park! Yes!
In the battle of bad teams, advantage now to the Phillies. Let's hope Burnett doesn't start walking everyone now.
For a geriatric outfielder who was supposed to be on the DL by the first week of May, Marlon Byrd didn't leave many questions as to whether that ball was going to leave the yard.
Sigh. Domonono.
Hey the broadcast said Dom is 9-27 in June coming into tonight. He sure has turned it around. Got that OPS all the way up to .590.
(It's back at .584 now.)
After his third double of the season, Bennie's slugging % jumped to .340, 21 points above 5-tool Dom's...
I feel like Burnett should be swinging away instead of failing to bunt properly. He was our best-hitting SP.
Revere prepares to bunt, then thinks better of it when the pitch almost sails into the broadcast booth.
Burnett with a BIDP. Worst bunt ever?
Wish he'd gotten down a better bunt. I'm totally fine with him not being on base. I cringe every time he's got to exert himself running.
Utley + Howard = 1st & 3rd again.
Brown this year makes it hard to believe that he was ever protected from trade.
Is this how good Burnett is when he faces an offense that's last in the NL - including last in BB? Or did he figure something out? Get a shot for the pain?
You know at least a .600+ OPS would be nice from Dom.
I do love that, for a fraction of a second, Benji reared back as if he were going to try to gun Quinten down at the plate.
See, Dom, this is why you run in the field.
Dom with the fluid outfield play.
> Burnett will pitch great tonight,dropped him from my fantasy team.
And, I've got Kennedy on my team, which means, of course, he has to crap the bed.
Nice show of appreciation for Burnett from the crowd, and deservedly so.
Let's see if Diekman can get out of the jam for him.
It's not much of a jam, one on and one out. I didn't realize Burnett's pitch count was only 89.
Nice job by Diekman.
Sorry, Dickie, I don't feel sorry for you.
Yeah, he was cruising. Amazing how that works when you don't walk every third batter.
Benny gettin' on again.
Nice hit for JRoll - 4 hits needed to take the Phillies' record for hits! I was hoping he'd get a hit tonight to bring him closer. I'd like him to take the record on this homestand.
Heads-up baserunning by JRoll there. Nice work.
That was weird. I hope Revere and Brown were paying attention to the fact that Rollins tried to avoid getting tagged out, rather than giving in to it, and it paid off.
Revere & Rollins > Pierre & Castillo?
Now we have 2 guys in the pen who throw 100 mph.
Matt Gelb (@magelb)
Jake Diekman: 96, 97, 98, 99, 99, 99, 100, 86. Four swinging strikes in eight pitches. Whoa.
Howard again suffers from the special RyHow rule, which states that every outside pitch to him on a 2-strike count must be a called 3rd strike.
I feel kind of bad for Howard. He has a hard enough time recognizing strikes without the umpire making it harder. He swings at those pitches outside and we wish he would lay off them. He lays off, and the ump calls a strike anyway.
Quackenbush is a great name. Rivals Quisenberry. The Royals fans used to refer to the latter as "Quiz" for short. Think Quackenbush is called "Quack"? Or maybe "Duck"?
GBrett, Quackenbush also lives up to his name in how he moves: he walks like Baby Huey.
Can Quackenbush and Duckworth be on the same team?
Pathetic. Win or lose, it's pathetic that they can't score with the bases loaded an no outs.
Brown just makes it easy on pitchers any more.
The ump sorta spotted them one of those outs, to be fair.
Dom needs to be sent down. This really cant be good for him.
Rooting for Papelbon to reach save #300 now.
The more Papelbon excels, the more he's worth in a trade. Or, at the least, the better it means we're doing (because he only comes on in save situations).
Saves are a stupid and meaningless stat.
BTW, Diekman did a great job tonight.
Paps is due for a 30 minute inning.
Nice stop by Utley! But no chance to make a play.
This would be a terrible time for Papelbon, rusty as he must be, to blow a save. Against a team with terrible offense, following a terrible road trip when the team could really use a win, hoping for his 300th save, at home....
Yes, Diekman did do a great job tonight, awh.
Very nice crowd tonight, on their feet cheering Paps on.
Oh, crap.
Come on, Pap. Just one little out before 3 runs score.
I predict he will give up a run before getting the out.
We win!

Police in Midway, Ga. order lemonade stand closed
"Midway Police Chief Kelly Morningstar says police didn't know how the lemonade was made, who made it or what was in it." Kelly - Have you ever had a lemonade stand? I'm sure you have. Did the police come shut you down because you didn't have a business license? Maybe the police could have asked the girls how the lemonade was made, who made it and what was in it. Or ask their moms. I'll bet those smart girls told the police how much a cup of lemonade cost and they said 'No' when the police asked if they could have some for free. THAT'S why it got shut down.
