Corvette's Product Marketing Manager Harlan Charles and Chief Engineer Tadge Juechter discuss the 2011 Corvette Z06 Carbon Limited Edition and show us how technology transfers from Corvette Racing's C6.Rs to the production street cars and then back again.
Following a less than stellar outing at the 12 Hours of Sebring, Corvette Racing is ready to rebound this weekend as the ALMS comes to the streets of Long Beach. The race around the 11-turn 1.986-mile temporary track is a 100 minute sprint and teams will only have a couple of hours of practice time on the track before the race on Saturday afternoon.
The American Le Mans Series has announced their performance adjustments for the GT class ahead of next weekend's race at Long Beach. The Corvette C6.Rs started the season with IMSA mandating a minimum weight of 1270 kg. That requirement added 25 kg to the Corvettes which equals roughly 60 pounds. IMSA has stated that the Pratt and Miller Corvettes will run with the extra weight until completion of Round 3 at Laguna Seca in May.
Lost in our coverage of news from the 12 Hours of Sebring a couple weeks ago was that ExxonMobil and Corvette Racing have extended their partnership in a new multi-year deal. The partnership marks the 14th consecutive year in which the Mobil 1 brand as been a major sponsor for Corvette Racing and the "Official Lubricant of Corvette Racing." In this multi-year agreement, the Mobil 1 logo will be featured on the Corvette C6.Rs, team uniforms and vehicles.
In addition to the hood from the #4 Corvette C6.R that was sold for $3,000, several other parts from the race cars were auctioned by Corvette Racing's Doug Fehan and Ambassador Ron Fellows at the Corvette Corral at the 12 Hours of Sebring. The money raised was donated to Motorsports Ministries, an organization offering non-denomination services at the track since 1985.

These gorgeous Rainbow Pinwheel Cookies are super easy to make and are so much fun!
It's rainbow mania! Seriously, I can't get enough of rainbow recipes right now and I'm hoping you feel the same way :) Otherwise, you're probably like whatevs Trish. Enough with the rainbows already.
Buuut, I'm just going to assume you're on board here…
These cookies are pretty much perfect in every way. Pretty. Fun. Easy. Showstoppers. Ya get me?
These cookies were so fun to make and even more fun to eat. They are kind of mesmerizing to look at actually. I was staring at the pics I took and was totally zoning. Had to snap myself out of it before I got sucked into Rainbow World.
Rainbows are cool all year long but especially around St. Patrick's Day and Spring time. I mean, seriously! How can you not love rainbows??
You know how the other day I made the Easy Rainbow Pretzel Wands? Well, I had enough for both boys to take to school…then they came home and wanted a snack, and then I wanted a snack, and another…anyways, long story short – we only had enough left for one class so I ended up sending them to school with Bryce, much to Reece's dismay.
I promised Reece that I would make it up to him. I told him that I had a few more cookie recipes planned and he could take either of them to school. If neither cookie was up to his standards, I would make another batch of Rainbow Wands.
These cookies totally did the trick.
So let's talk about how easy these are to whip up. I started with refrigerated sugar cookie dough (Pillsbury, of course) and then threw on the colored sugar. Lots of it. I was shy a few colors, so I just made my own. Easy peasy.
Roll up the dough just like you would for cinnamon rolls and then slice and bake. I gave each cookie a little smoosh with my palm to flatten it before baking and then tada! Rainbow Pinwheel Cookies!
If you're in a jam and need a treat fast – these cookies are totally calling your name! Or maybe you just love rainbows as much as I do and these beauties are the perfect excuse you've been looking for :) Time to get baking!
Save your favorite recipes to your personal recipe box with the button on all my recipes! Create a Meal Plan out of your favorite recipes and the ingredients will automatically be added to your own Grocery Shopping List.
These gorgeous Rainbow Pinwheel Cookies are super easy to make and are so much fun!
- 1 16.5 oz roll refrigerated Pillsbury sugar cookie dough
- 1/3 cup flour
- rainbow colored sugar
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Knead flour and sugar cookie dough together until well combined.
- Generously sprinkle cutting board with additional flour and roll out sugar cookie dough into a rectangle approximately 1/4 inch thick.
- Sprinkle colored sugar in stripes across dough. (Refer to picture.)
- Gently roll into a log. Just like cinnamon rolls.
- Slice dough 1/2 inch thick and place on parchment lined baking sheet.
- Gently press cookies with the palm of your hand, flattening slightly.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are light golden brown.
- Cool for 2-3 minutes on cooking sheet before transferring to cooling rack.
- Store in an airtight container for up to a week.

Brooklyn's BEST SHSAT Prep Program
Here are 6 reasons why our
SHSAT Prep program is the BEST!
SHSAT Test Prep Courses by Skill Level
Our students come to us from schools all throughout NYC. They come to us with varying academic strengths and weaknesses. Placing all of these students into a single class would be convenient for us, but ineffective for most students.
At Five Points Learning, we do not believe in a "one size fits all" classroom model. Instead, we use a placement exam to group students by level so we can more effectively teach students by targeting our instruction to the needs of each respective class.
This approach leads to higher scores and is what has allowed us to be so successful in helping students earn the scores necessary to gain admissions into NYC's elite Specialized High Schools.
SHSAT Test Prep Course Descriptions
We offer three levels of differentiated SHSAT instruction, yet multiple pathways to success. Here are a few possible routes:
If a student is placed into the "Foundations" SHSAT class, we recommend that at a minimum they also complete the "Advanced Reasoning" SHSAT course as well. For some students, this may be enough to earn an "admissions" score. Other students may want to consider the "Score Maximizer" class to capitalize on all course options and to fully optimize their score.
If a student is placed in the "Advanced Reasoning" SHSAT class, they may find that this one class is sufficient for their needs.
For a student placed in the "Advanced Reasoning" SHSAT class with a strong motivation to attend either Stuyvesant or Bronx Science High Schools, we strongly recommend the "Score Maximizer" SHSAT class also be completed.
Math Fundamentals
Basic algebra, geometry, logic, and advanced arithmetic
Fundamental comprehension strategies
Sentence Composition
Parts of speech and sentence transitions
Advanced Reasoning
Upper-Level Math
Advanced problem solving, algebra, geometry, logic, and critical thinking
Critical Reading
Advanced critical reading techniques and strategies
Sentence Deconstruction
Transition signals and keywords
Score Maximizer
Prerequisite: Advanced Reasoning
Perfect score focus
Practice test simulations
In-depth test reviews
Individualized support
Proprietary SHSAT Curriculum and Prep Materials
Our course materials are rigorously researched and tested to help students achieve their highest scores. We have also published and made available to the public, the following SHSAT prep books to help students prepare for the Specialized High School Admissions Test (SHSAT).
Our Students And Families Us
We work hard to make a difference in the lives of our students and families. We understand what is at stake and we are driven to support all families as they pursue their goals and dreams. The following (authentic) testimonials as posted on Yelp.com, should help you understand what we are about.
(Note: These reviews may not be subject specific and are only offered to help gain perspective on the quality of our services.)
Five Points Learning helped my child in both her Algebra class and SHSAT class. In both areas she improved dramatically She loves her tutors there! and is now attending Brooklyn Tech. I will assuredly send her to the center again for her SAT. She loves her tutors there!
My teen attended Five Points for regents prep. She participated in the 4 student sessions Five points is highly recommended.and the tutor was on target and focused with excellent results. My daughter also attended the immersion section for science which proved to be successful. Five points is highly recommended.
I came to Five Points with my 8th grade son less than two months before the SHSATs. I was feeling like a bad parent – how could I have waited until the "last minute" to get my son some help in preparing for this test that most kids seemed to have been working toward for a year or more? Five Points and Eddie were totally encouraging, organized and professional.Five Points and Eddie were totally encouraging, organized and professional. Eddie devised a game plan for the time we had to work with and in about 5 or 6 sessions my son had the tools and confidence needed to test into his first choice. My son is a smart kid but I honestly believe that without the strategies and tips he got at Five Points, he wouldn't have done anywhere near as well as he did. I shopped around a bit and was worried about not spending the big bucks that a lot of the dedicated SHSAT services charge. I cannot believe that they offer anything that is not available at Five Points for a fraction of the price.

NEW YORK, March 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- In its first new product initiative since acquiring the Steel Business Briefing Group, Platts has re-launched its flagship steel publication, Steel Markets Daily, with a new focus on the raw materials – iron ore, metallurgical coal, coke, scrap and ferroalloys – that drive the steel market. Re-branded Platts SBB Steel Markets Daily , the new publication provides news, analysis, commentary and more than 80 daily and weekly physical market price assessments, including both the Platts IODEX and The Steel Index (TSI) iron ore benchmarks.
"As a stand-alone publication dedicated to the raw materials market, Platts SBB Steel Markets Daily complements SBB Daily Briefing's coverage of downstream products," said Andrew Goodwin, Platts general manager, metals.

Subscribers also have access to the Platts SBB Price Analyzer – an online tool that allows subscribers to graph and download key price assessments for research and analysis purposes. In addition, two supplementary reports are available to subscribers: Platts SBB Raw Materials Xtra , a monthly raw material round up of news and features, and Platts SBB Insight, a bi-weekly in-depth look at the steel industry.More than one hundred years of combined editorial experience went into content development for Platts' new SBB Steel Markets Daily.

The original video has been deleted and is no longer available. Texas' tax-free shopping starts Friday By: Stephanie GuadianThe start of school is just around the corner, and Texas' tax-free weekend arrives just in time. It's a chance for parents to save money on their back-to-school shopping. El Paso mom Kendra Smith has four kids, and three of them are heading to school this year. She came to Target a few days before the start of sales tax holiday -- hoping to beat the crowds. But, there's no escaping the financial strain of paying for all those markers, notepads, backpacks and school clothes. "We just got back from our summer trip. So, to come back from this and to have to face this, like the cost is like, oh my gosh!! I'm going to be eating out of my food storage for a while," said Kendra Smith.Some relief is on the way. Texas' tax-free weekend starts Friday and lasts through Sunday. It applies to general merchandise including clothing, footwear, school supplies and backpacks.John Wooten is an employee at a Target in West El Paso. He says his store is just one of many gearing up for the rush. "We know we have a lot of guests coming out and they are shopping for their kids. So, it's really similar to the atmosphere at Christmas. It's just a shorter amount of time," said John Wooten.According to the National Retail Federation's annual survey -- parents are going to be spending five percent more than last year on school supplies. For the average family with kids K through 12, that adds up to about $670. The survey found average back to school spending for a college student is expected to jump ten percent. That price tag is a little more than$900. Complete look at the rules for Texas' tax-free weekend

4 caveats on variable-rate CDs
Variable-rate certificates of deposit (CDs) are nothing new, but they may seem like an especially appealing concept in today's low-interest-rate environment. However, the numbers behind these products don't always add up to a good deal for savers.
While most CD rates are fixed for the length of the term, variable-rate CDs have interest rates that can change, either according to a prearranged formula based on some index, or at the customer's option when rates rise. A couple of factors make these accounts seem unusually compelling today:
- CD rates are extremely low. According to recent FDIC figures, the average rate for a one-month CD is just 0.05 percent, even lower than the average for savings accounts and money market accounts.
- The time premium has all but disappeared. If you are willing to commit to a longer term CD, you are generally compensated for that commitment with a higher rate. However, this premium for longer commitments has shrunk considerably. Five years ago, five-year CDs were paying about 2 percent more than savings accounts. Now, they pay less than 70 basis points more.
Both of the above conditions are pretty unusual, so a variable-rate CD can be a way of making sure you do not find yourself locked into low rates after more normal conditions have returned.
The trouble with variable-rate CDs
Unfortunately, though the idea of flexibility sounds good right now, the numbers offered on variable-rate CDs don't necessarily add up in your favor. Here are four reasons why:
- You will probably pay a price for the option. CDs that give you the option of a "bump-up" in rates if yields rise before the CD term expires generally make you pay for that option in the form of a lower initial rate. When you compare these rates with standard CD rates, you may conclude that the option is not worth the price.
- It might be cheaper to pay an early withdrawal penalty. It depends on the size of the penalty of course, but in some cases the early-withdrawal penalty on a CD represents just a few months' interest. That may turn out to be less than the cut in rates you would get on a bump-up CD, and you would only pay the price if rate changes made it worthwhile.
- The bump-up option has less value as time goes on. If you do accept a lower initial rate, keep in mind that the longer it takes for rates to rise, the less valuable the bump-up option becomes. The more time goes by, the longer you are stuck in a substandard rate, and the less remaining time you will have to benefit from a rate bump.
- Losing ground to inflation is as bad as losing money. Indexed CDs may tout the fact that your principal is guaranteed, so the worst that can happen is that you will earn no interest if the index does not move in your favor. However, earning no interest while inflation creeps forward is effectively the same as losing money.

Arts picks: A mix of classics from The Singapore Chinese Orchestra
Published on Apr 12, 2014 8:11 AM
This may be the third time since 2007 that The Theatre Practice is staging this popular musical, but its appeal remains evergreen because of the timeless songs by home-grown composer Liang Wern Fook, whose name is closely tied to the rise of Singapore's folk music movement in the 1990s. The play follows A-Le who leaves Singapore for New York after losing his girlfriend. There, he falls for aspiring actress Rose and finds himself torn between his old love and new flame. The actors put on a commendable performance and Liang does not disappoint with the tunes.
Where: Drama Centre Theatre, National Library Building Level 3 MRT: Bugis/City Hall When: Till April 27, 8pm (Tue - Fri), 2.30 & 8pm (Sat & Sun) Admission: $46 - $76 from Sistic (go to www.sistic.com.sg or call 6348-5555) Info: Some mature content
One may not immediately associate batik altar cloths with Peranakan art but the new exhibition at The Peranakan Museum aims to change that with the first large-scale show on the subject.
Peranakan families typically used embroidered cloths made in southern China to decorate their household altars for special occasions. In the early 20th century, however, some families in Indonesia began using batik or resist-dyed cloths, a move likely spurred by the flourishing batik industry in Java. The colourful batik altar cloths combine traditional Chinese symbolism with motifs and designs from South-east Asia and Europe, giving Peranakan ceremonial practices a distinct local flavour.
The batik altar cloths on display were drawn largely from a donation by Matthew and Alice Yapp.

Supervisors endorse bipartisan proposal, but call on Congress to reimburse county for associated costs
"It doesn't sound like amnesty to me," Ashley said.
Supervisor John Tavaglione said the board should support the plan because "it's the right thing to do."
Before the board took up the matter, about 15 people spoke in favor of the Benoit-Ashley resolution.
Luz Gallegos, community programs director for the nonprofit TODEC Legal Center in Perris that serves immigrant families, said, "The nation's immigration system has long been neglected." It is time for "real solutions," Gallegos added.
Antonio Ayala of Perris said, "We cannot neglect 11 or 12 million people in the United States."
Christopher Ryan, a Riverside Community College student from Perris, said he has gone to school for many years with students whose parents are in this country illegally, and they and their parents should be able to remain here.
"They're here not to take anyone's job, but to give themselves a chance through education ... and to help the economy," Ryan said.
A few people spoke against the resolution. One was Robin Hvidston of Upland.
"This body politic is supposed to represent American citizens," Hvidston said.
She said the county ought to concern itself with the "legions of homeless" American citizens, those who live below the poverty line and the veterans who have returned from Iraq and Afghanistan and have not found work.
"We want our (immigration) laws enforced," Hvidston said. "We don't need comprehensive immigration reform. We need comprehensive enforcement."

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) -- A former bank teller has been sentenced to a year in prison, convicted of supplying withdrawal information that led to an elderly customer being robbed.
Lakehsa Thomas was sentenced Monday, all but one year of a five-year term being suspended, according to The Commercial Appeal.
The 33-year-old Thomas was convicted in May of giving inside information to her husband about 85-year-old James Heflin withdrawing $83,000 from a bank where Thomas worked in the spring of 2007.
Heflin was attacked and robbed as he removed the money from the trunk of his car. Then in July 2007, three men broke into the home of Heflin and his wife, beat Heflin and took nearly $400,000 more in cash.
Rodricko Thomas was sentenced last month to 14 years in prison.

Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) called for Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) to resign from the race for Missouri's Senate seat in light of Akin's controversial comments on rape that came out this weekend.
Akin's comments, that "the female body has ways to shut that whole thing down" if it's a "legitimate rape," sparked outrage from members of both parties on Sunday, with Republicans quickly distancing themselves from his statement and Democrats working to tie Akin to other Republicans.
Brown earlier tweeted a call for an apology from Akin, but his statement, which came shortly after, joins other Republicans who have begun to wonder whether Akin needs to remove himself from the race to preserve Republican chances in what was once considered a likely easy win for the party.
He is the first GOP senator to call for Akin to step down.
Massachusetts Democratic challenger Elizabeth Warren has not yet released a statement on Akin's comments. She and Brown are locked in a neck-and-neck race for that state's Senate seat.

Answer #1Evan Scheidet from Big E's Garage, August 10, 2012, 05:51Enthusiast
Your car, unfortunately, is listed as an interference engine so valve damage could be an issue but there is hope! If the T/belt broke when the vehicle was idling in gear or something like that damage could have been avoided. If the T/belt broke while cruising at 60mph not so good. Is this some thing that your going to tackle yourself? If so let me know I'll give you some tips on how to tell if damage was done or not.

When it came time for the show, the Jenner sisters were on their A-game, informing fans of the very important Ed Sheeran rain ponchos available in case of rain.
Look how great Kendall looks in one!

Business Highlights
LinkedIn's 4Q results soar past Street views
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) â¿¿ Online professional-networking service LinkedIn's fourth-quarter performance added another line to its sterling resume as a public company.
The results announced Thursday extended LinkedIn Corp.'s uninterrupted streak of exceeding analysts' projections for both earnings and revenue. It marked the seventh consecutive quarter since LinkedIn's May 2011 IPO that the company has pulled that off, to the delight of investors.The run of pleasant surprises is one of the reasons that LinkedIn's stock has tripled from its initial public offering price of $45. The shares surged $12.11, or nearly 10 percent, to $136.20 in extended trading after the numbers came out. ___ Sprint posts big 4Q loss, revenue rises NEW YORK (AP) â¿¿ Sprint Nextel Corp., the country's third largest wireless carrier, on Thursday said it lost $1.3 billion in its fourth quarter, about the same as a year ago, as it revamped its network for a comeback versus bigger competitors. The company's focus, and that of its investors, is on its long-term turnaround efforts rather than on short-term results. Sprint is selling 70 percent of itself to Japanese carrier Softbank Corp. for $20 billion. That deal is expected to close this summer, and provide long-ailing Sprint with a much-needed infusion of capital. With Softbank's backing, Sprint has struck a deal to buy out the other shareholders of Clearwire Corp., which operates a wireless data network. That should give Sprint more space on the airwaves and allow it to offer high broadband speeds. ___ By The Associated Press(equals) The Dow Jones industrial average fell 42 points to 13,944.05. The Standard and Poor's 500 fell three points to 1,509.39 and the Nasdaq composite dropped three points to 3,165.13. Benchmark crude for March delivery fell 79 cents to finish at $95.83 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. In London, Brent crude, used to price international varieties of oil, rose 51 cents to end at $117.24 a barrel on the ICE Futures exchange.

The company has informed the 300 selected beta testers today that they will soon get Steam hardware and SteamOS for testing. The company is rewarding these early adopters with a special badge on their Steam Community profile. In addition, a number of games that run natively on SteamOS are being added to each selected user's library.

Here is the best part for those who are not among those lucky 300 users. The company said,
SteamOS will be made available when the prototype hardware ships. It will be downloadable by individual users and commercial OEMs. (But unless you're an intrepid Linux hacker already, we're going to recommend that you wait until later in 2014 to try it out.) We'll post info soon about that. Oh, and stay tuned for the in-home streaming beta to begin soon, too!
Valve will be making a grand appearance of Steam Machine and it's controller at CES 2014.

"The approval of HUMIRA is excellent news for patients suffering from psoriasis, which can have a profound physical and emotional impact on a person's life," said Alan Menter, M.D., chairman, division of dermatology, Baylor University Medical Center, Dallas. "HUMIRA offers dermatologists an important new therapeutic option that has been shown to help alleviate a range of psoriasis signs and symptoms, including redness, scaling and itching, in many psoriasis patients."
HUMIRA for Plaque Psoriasis
The approval of HUMIRA is based on data from more than 1,400 adult patients in two pivotal trials -- REVEAL and CHAMPION. Both studies evaluated the efficacy and safety of HUMIRA in clearing skin in moderate to severe adult plaque psoriasis patients versus placebo. In addition, CHAMPION compared a biologic medication to methotrexate, a standard systemic treatment for psoriasis. REVEAL results were published in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology in January 2008 and CHAMPION results were published online in the British Journal of Dermatology.
In each trial, reduction in disease activity was determined by the
Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) and Physician's Global Assessment
(PGA). The PASI score measures the extent and severity of psoriasis. PASI
may be calculated before and after a treatment period to determine
efficacy; for example, a P

California Umbrella 7.5' with collar tilt
By Cathy C. from San Diego, CA on Jun 05, 2012
Bargain Hunter, Practical, Casual Do-It-Yourselfer
The umbrella was delivered on time, in excellent shape and works great on my small upper deck. Just the right size that I can tilt before it's fully open to avoid hitting anything. The fabric I chose, Sunbrella Henna, is a very nice decent red. I've been enjoying my patio furniture set ever since the umbrella was set up. Love it!

Injury-plagued Patriots hurry to prepare for Jets

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Julian Edelman isn't wasting time as he moves on from his strong season-opening performance. He quickly shifted his attention from that game against the Buffalo Bills to the next one against the New York Jets just four days later.
The New England Patriots need his focus to be sharp — and his body to be healthy — as they deal with a growing number of injuries to players who Tom Brady wants to get the ball to. So the wide receiver isn't worrying about the short time the team has to prepare.
"It affects us the same as it affects the Jets," Edelman said Tuesday. "The more time we think about that, the less time we're preparing."
The Patriots will be without leading rusher Shane Vereen on Thursday after he was placed on injured reserve Tuesday with a designation to return. He must miss eight games and would be eligible to play on Nov. 18 against the Carolina Panthers. He broke his left wrist in the opener and had surgery Monday, Fox Sports reported.
The third-year running back was the dual threat coach Bill Belichick hoped he could be when he rushed for 101 yards and gained 58 more on seven catches in a 23-21 win over the Bills Sunday in Buffalo.
Vereen tweeted on Tuesday, "Thank you all for the well wishes n prayers means a lot n makes me feel all warm inside lol.. `Ill be back!"'
His loss likely means Stevan Ridley will return as the backfield workhorse.
Vereen received extra playing time against the Bills after Ridley was benched when he fumbled while cutting in the second quarter. Buffalo's Da'Norris Searcy returned the ball 74 yards for a touchdown.
"I've talked to Stevan," Belichick said. "Look, every player has the same responsibility every week: to be ready to play, to be ready to go. That's their job. They can't control coaches' decisions. They can control their preparation. They control their performance when they're in the game.
"That's what a player's job is."
The Patriots have only one other healthy running back, LeGarrette Blount. Two others were limited in walkthroughs on Monday and Tuesday, Brandon Bolden with a knee injury and Leon Washington with a thigh injury.
Asked how he plans to handle the loss of Vereen on Thursday, Belichick said, "Whatever players are active for the game, I expect them all to be prepared and ready to play. We'll see how it all turns out."
The Patriots also could be thin at wide receiver and tight end.
Against Buffalo, Edelman caught seven passes for 79 yards and two touchdowns as Brady relied on him and Danny Amendola when three rookies — wide receivers Kenbrell Thompkins and Josh Boyce and tight end Zach Sudfeld — struggled.
But Amendola, the Patriots' No. 1 receiver, could miss Thursday's game with a groin injury he aggravated in Buffalo. He also participated in the walkthroughs on a limited basis.
"It's a violent game out there and you're always one play away," Edelman said. "It's not like college, where you have a backup field goal kicker, two different types of kickers, a holder, 14 receivers. Everyone that's on the (Patriots) is ultimately going to have to contribute some time this season.
"You have to always be prepared for the opportunity."
Edelman played 83 of 94 snaps Sunday and could be on the field for more if Amendola and rookie Aaron Dobson, who missed the opener with a hamstring injury, don't play.
That game "is in the past, regardless if you do good or bad," Edelman said. "I think Tom looks for the open receiver. So I'm just trying to win a route every time and if the ball comes to me it comes to me. If it doesn't, I'm going to go out and try to make a block or do my job. So I'm not thinking about what Tom's doing. I'm thinking about what I have to do."
The Patriots also lack depth at tight end with Michael Hoomanawanui and Matthew Mulligan, re-signed on Tuesday, the only healthy players at that position. Sudfeld has a hamstring injury and Rob Gronkowski missed the opener after offseason surgery on his back and broken left forearm.
"When people are injured, that's why you have a deep roster, guys that you have confidence in, that you've gained trust in," Brady said.
With so many rookie receivers, Brady hasn't had much time to develop that, but he said he has.
"We have a lot of good running backs," he said. "We have a lot of good receivers."
Even if some of them are sidelined.
"We'll see," he said, "how that all sorts itself out."

Editors: Evolve or Die
"Editors are so busy they don't have time to do all of the things they love anymore," said New York editor Adam Moss. "You just hope that the person that picks up those responsibilities does them in a way that's rewarding, and maybe even in a way you wouldn't."
Expanding a magazine's brand and creating a successful franchise takes a lot of work. Today, new projects can range from producing live events, putting together special promotions and creating a seemingly never-ending slew of digital initiatives.
"You need to have a well-oiled machine," ReadyMade editor Shoshana Berger said about an editor's staff. Moss and Berger were joined on the panel by Stephen Adler, editor of BusinessWeek editor, Angela Burt-Murray, editor of Essence, and New York Times media columnist David Carr. "When your attention is taken away from the magazine, your core product, you have to know your staff can make things happen," Berger said. "You need people you can rely on."
With so many magazine staffs taking on branding projects, editors and publishers should evaluate each project and determine if they can deliver a superior product, according to Adler. "Editors need to see each brand extension as needing as much attention as any other," he said. "If you think you can't do something well, don't do it at all."
Added Moss: "A good editor should have fairly severe A.D.D."

December 20, 2014
BAGHDAD (AP) -- At least a dozen people are dead after a double car bombing in a busy commercial district in Baghdad -- one of the deadliest attacks in Iraq's capital in weeks.
Iraqi officials say the cars were parked between a passport office and a courthouse when they blew up nearly simultaneously in a mainly Shiite neighborhood. The 12 people killed were all civilians. Another 36 people were wounded and dozens of cars were burned or damaged.
The blasts came as Defense Secretary Robert Gates arrived in Baghdad to meet with Iraqi officials and preside over a change-of-command ceremony for U.S. forces in Iraq.
American commanders have warned that security gains remain fragile and need to be supported by progress on the political front.

State prosecutors are looking into several sexual assault cases police say were improperly reported by officials at Memphis City Schools.
So far, one case has been substantiated. The others are under investigation.
"We felt the investigations were not complete, and asked the police to provide further information. To date, no charges have been approved," Jennifer C. Donnals, spokeswoman for the Shelby County District Attorney General's Office, wrote in an e-mail late Tuesday.
Police presented the cases to the DA's office May 4. Since then, Donnals said, additional evidence has been presented in two of the cases.
"The chief prosecutor still believed further investigation was needed in one case. The other is complete; the file is in our possession and currently being reviewed. A decision on whether to approve a charge has not been made in that case," she said.
According to district officials, the substantiated case involved the alleged rape of one student by another last fall at Craigmont Middle School. The case is scheduled to go to court in June.
Roderick Richmond, chief of school operations, said principals are told to immediately notify police and Department of Children's Services in the case of rape or other serious offenses.
"It falls under child abuse or neglect and also under our zero-tolerance offenses," Richmond said.
But police said six cases in the last year were not reported.
"The school district should not be investigating rape cases or any criminal matter. That is the primary reason MPD is taking a closer look," MPD spokeswoman Monique Martin said.
In the policy updated in July 2006, principals are charged with investigating sexual harassment between students, including rape.
Richmond said that policy will be reviewed this summer.
In a letter to Supt. Kriner Cash dated April 23, Dist. Atty. Gen. Bill Gibbons clarified at Cash's request, the reporting obligations of teachers and administrators.
"It is apparent to me that many school officials do not have a clear understanding of the mandatory reporting law," Gibbons wrote
While Tennessee law is "extremely broad" in what constitutes child sexual abuse, including actions between students, school officials must report any allegations immediately, even if they feel they are "untrue or unfounded."
School employees, he said, do not have authority to conduct their own investigations before reporting.
Violations are Class A misdemeanor, punishable with up to a $2,500 fine.
In April, Police Director Larry Godwin accused the district of not reporting several incidents. In one, sexual content on a student's cell phone was erased by an assistant principal who is charged with downloading the image to this work computer.
He was charged with tampering with evidence and sexual exploitation.
In the second case, a hall monitor is charged with not reporting a weapon found in a locker.
As a result, Godwin said in a letter dated April 20, he could not support the possibility of the district-run police department, citing "the checks and balances with regards to the reporting of crime in our schools."

Photos of DJ AM, Mandy Moore, Candy Spelling at Friendly House's Annual Awards Luncheon at the Beverly Hills Hotel
DJ AM and Mandy Moore Keep Things Friendly
Mandy Moore and DJ AM smiled for the camera as they sat side by side at the Friendly House's Annual Awards Luncheon in Beverly Hills on Saturday. The former flames have always maintained their friendship, and when Mandy heard about DJ AM's accident, she rushed across the country to be at his hospital bedside. Not all of his exes are quite as devoted as Mandy, but DJ AM has plenty of friends supporting him, especially now that Travis Barker is also out of the hospital.

yes… Can you ask the family to register him in the non fatal drowning registry & network nfdr.org
Thank you
Are you still looking for non fatal drowning children? My grandson had a near drown accident Nov 24 2009. He will be 5 sept 11 th. we would like to have him participate if possible.
From what I hear and see about Conrad, he seems to be a beutiful boy. He is so blessed to have such a strong and supportive family, God bless you and your family
Miracle of miracles! I see new life in Conrad's face. My, how God has been working in Conrad and your life. I am so pleased and excited.
Lots of love and continued prayer,
Sr. Stephana Marbach
God Bless and Keep You. What a gorgeous family you have. I read your story in tears as a parent of two young boys… it sure hits home. We will continue to pray for sweet Conrad and all of you. You are angels watching over him and I'm sure he feels that love each and every day in so many ways.
Keep shining Conrad! Your smiles are infectious and we are continually praying for advances in this area. You give hope and inspiration and make everyone feel that with love and hard work many things are accomplishable.
Circumstances giving challenge are often horrendous. People can be at their best when called upon to rise to the challenge, or quit. You and Matt have risen with strength and character.
We saw the story on KSAT12 television today. Thank you for sharing your family's perseverance. It is an inspiration it is for others.
You guys inspire me and my family!
This is a beautiful and tragic all at once, but one can see beauty and joy on the face of such a sweet little boy. He always makes my danceing so nurturing. I want to thank his, mama and his aunt for sharing thiers miracle with us. He will always be in my heart.
I will continue to support you where I can, Liz, and pray that the work of your Dr. will make the advances necessary. I have two great nehpews who were born with cystic fibrosis, and we continue to pray for a drug that will help them. So far they have grown into healthy 7 and 9 year olds. But right now their life expectancy is around 35.
God blesses us in so many ways, even in our tragedies.
Liz, Thank you for sharing Conrad's story with me. You have an absolutely amazing family.
Conrad, you and your mom inspire me to live every moment with joy! Thank you for the smile in your eyes.

Thank you so much for sharing Conrad's journey, I wish you all the happiness and success in reaching his potential. What a loving and gorgeous family you have!
Happy new year!
Wishing you good things in 2012!
