Edge in the News
In the meantime, there's a rich discussion of aspects of this question on Edge.org, a forum for all manner of minds, curated by the agent and intellectual impressario John Brockman. Once or twice a year since 1998, Edge has tossed provocative questions to variegated batches of scientists, writers, artists and innovators.
Some examples: How is the Internet changing the way you think? What have you changed your mind about? Why? What do you believe is true even though you cannot prove it?
This year's question, proposed by Steven Pinker and shaped with input from Daniel Kahneman, has been addressed by more than 150 people so far:
What scientific concept would improve everybody's cognitive toolkit? (The phrase "scientific concept" has a very broad meaning, explained at the link.)
You can read my Edge contribution, centering on a concept I call anthropophilia, below, with links to relevant context added (the Edge format is straight text).
I'm in the early stages of reading the other contributions. There's much to chew on and enjoy. Here are a few highlights: ...
Each year, the Scientific Club "The Edge" poses a question. 2011 will be explored that is lacking in people to the knowledge nor
If the theory of the "multiverse" is true, then it is at least one universe in which we do not die. Because the concept assumes that each possible universe has to actually occur - including universes, which have already defeated the doctors in our lifetimes the death. That we die in our universe is indeed annoying, but not the end of the world. This is the response of the psychologist Nicholas Humphrey on this year's "Edge" question: "What scientific concept would improve the cognitive abilities of all people?"...
... In a time when economic studies that scientifically "prove" that certain groups of people are smarter than others (Thilo Sarrazin keeps Muslim immigrants for less intelligent than German, while other studies show that leftists are smarter than right), like Conservatives and multicultural friends feel encouraged by Matt Ridley's statement that the individual intelligence or the intelligence of sub-groups for the welfare of a society are relatively unimportant. The decisive point is the "collective intelligence", says Ridley, which is not simply the sum of the individual intelligence quotient, but a function of networking, of labor and openness of a society.
Adam Smith and Karl Popper already knew this. Too bad that we do not inhabit the parallel universe in which they live.
Planet's biggest brains answer this year's Edge question: 'What scientific concept would improve everybody's cognitive toolkit?'
Being comfortable with uncertainty, knowing the limits of what science can tell us, and understanding the worth of failure are all valuable tools that would improve people's lives, according to some of the world's leading thinkers.
The ideas were submitted as part of an annual exercise by the web magazine Edge, which invites scientists, philosophers and artists to opine on a major question of the moment. This year it was, "What scientific concept would improve everybody's cognitive toolkit?"
The magazine called for "shorthand abstractions" – a way of encapsulating an idea or scientific concept into a short description that could be used as a component of bigger questions. The responses were published online today.
Many responses pointed out that the public often misunderstands the scientific process and the nature of scientific doubt. This can fuel public rows over the significance of disagreements between scientists about controversial issues such as climate change and vaccine safety. ...
Qual será o conceito científico que, se toda a gente o dominasse, poderia representar um salto imenso na capacidade que as pessoas têm de perceber e participar activamente nos assuntos do mundo?
This is, in essence, the question that John Brockman, the American literary agent and director of the site edge.org, presented in late December to a constellation of world famous scientists. The results were published online this morning.
The question was formulated more precisely as follows: "What Scientific Concept Would Improve Everybody's Cognitive Toolkit?"
Since this question is not as direct and explicit as some of its predecessors (the question last year, for example, was "How the Internet is changing the way we think?") Edge is quick to contextualize it.
The point is that, according to James Flynn, an expert on human intelligence from the University of Otago, New Zealand, there are words and short phrases — such as "market", "natural selection", etc.. — Which constitute "conceptual abbreviations" (shorthand abstractions, or SHA) that actually represent a constellation of such abstract concepts as complex and that "although extremely brief, have immense utility to perceive the world."
The idea is that the SHA, according to Flynn, "penetrated the cognitive repertoire of educated people, expanding their intellectual capabilities to become available in the form of cognitive units that can be used as elements of reasoning and debate." In other words, an economist, when he speaks of "market" or a biomedical specialist when he thinks of a "control group" or a statistician when he speaks of "random sample", knows very well that there's no need to lose time to reprocess these concepts each time you use them.
By Friday evening 115 people, scientists from various fields of knowledge, had already responded to the challenge. Some answers are extensive and very complex. Others do not respond exactly the question. But there are, as always, approaches to suit all tastes and most are interesting enough to make it worth going to have a look.

Publishers, I was told by an august member of that tribe soon after I first wrote about them, are exactly like farmers. Whatever the weather, whatever the harvest, they just love to moan. Much in the world of books has changed since that moment, but not the propensity to grumble. During 2010, the "we're all doomed" tendency fed us on a bumper crop of of gloomy prognostications. Will almost-free digital distribution drain cash and credit out of the entire book-supply system? Do electronic books as a whole threaten to bankrupt publishers and pauperise authors? Has the spread of new media destroyed an appetite for reading any text tougher than a tweet among the born-digital generation?
Can anybody stop Google (with Amazon and Apple not far behind) seizing control of humanity's written heritage and using it to promote their partisan corporate agendas? Will independent high-street booksellers, well-stocked local libraries and reasonable advances for authors who don't appear on TV fade into the mists of bookish history, along with quill pens and lazy lunches? And can we ever hope to resist the takeover of publishing by celebrity clout when our Christmas chart-topper – Jamie Oliver's Jamie's 30-Minute Meals - comes from an author who cheerily admits that "I've never read a book in my life, ever, apart from my own". Respect to the recipes, though.
So book lovers need to embark on a chapter of hope. Every new year, John Brockman of the online intellectual powerhouse Edge (www.edge.org) asks its virtual community of scientists and social thinkers one question. In 2007, it was this: "What are you optimistic about?" To strike a less than despondent chord this January, I put the same question to a few people in the British book world who are best placed to know. Read their answers on these page
Does the Internet affect our brains? 170 scientists and artists are trying to answer that question.
Since 1998, John Brockman of The Edge Foundation, an association of scientists and intellectuals, asks his members every year a question which they must answer with a short essay. Examples from recent years include "What do you think is true, but you can not prove?" and "What did you change your mind about? The question last year is also the title of this book. It is of course a very topical issue although the Internet has no really been around long enough to have serious statements about the impact on our brains or our way of thinking, yet in recent years there have been dozens of works published describing the investigated effects.
Here you get 170 scientists and artists, including big names such as Richard Dawkins, Steven Pinker, Daniel C. Dennet, Nassim Nicholas Taleb and Brian Eno, each of whom has a few pages to explain the advent of the Internet and what it has meant to them.
With so many people are discussed, this is a very diverse book. Optimists like Kevin Kelly, founder of Wired magazine, may hold a hymn to the possibilities of the Internet, while several pages later another describes the worldwide web as "the biggest distraction from serious thinking since television was invented." Some authors point to the disastrous consequences that the Internet already has on our brains, while an evolutionary biologistsays that the Internet so far has changed our very little because the information we find there is still viewed through our lenses as hunter-gatherers. That we can not handle this, for example, leads to a greater sense of insecurity.

his Christmas, a bevy of elegant models are on display. Not just the long-legged female variety (although you can see those at this season's parties in New York); instead, regulators, bankers and investors have been flaunting their own smart models, as they attempt to predict what 2011 might deliver.
But as this economic catwalk gets underway, it is shot through with irony. When the financial crisis hit, many observers blamed the disaster on the misuse of financial models. Not only had these flashy computer systems failed to forecast behaviour in the sub-prime mortgage world, but they had also seduced bankers and investors to take foolhardy risks or been used to justify some crazy behaviour.
But these days, in spite of all those mis-steps, there is little sign that financiers are falling out of love with those models; on the contrary, if you flick through the recent plethora of reports from the Basel Committees — or look at the 2011 forecasts emanating from investment banks — these remain heavily reliant on ever-more complex forms of modelling.
So what are investors to make of this? One particularly thought-provoking set of ideas can be seen in the current work of Emanuel Derman, a former physicist-turned banker who shot to fame within the banking industry two decades ago by co-developing some ground-breaking financial models, such as the Black-Derman-Toy model (one of the first interest rate models) and the Derman-Kani local volatility model (the first model consistent with the volatility smile). *
At first glance, Derman's past might suggest he should be a model-lover — or "modeliser" — par excellence. In the banking world, he is often hailed as one of the great, original "quants", who paved the way for the derivatives revolution. Yet in reality, Derman has always been pretty cynical about those models that won him, and other quants, earlier accolades. For while investment bank salesmen might have treated his creations as near infallible, in truth Derman — like many brilliant scientists-turned-quants — has always recognised their flaws. ...
Some of the world's greatest thinkers came together recently to answer the really big question — what will change the world? Roger Highfield, editor ofNew Scientist, reveals their predictions, from crowd-sourced charity to space colonisation and built-in telepathy.
It is not hard to think of examples of wide-eyed predictions that have proved somewhat wide of the mark. Personal jetpacks, holidays on the moon, the paperless office and the age of leisure all underline how futurologists are doomed to fail.
Any predictions should thus be taken with a heap of salt, but that does not mean crystal ball-gazing is worthless: on the contrary, even if it turns out to be bunk, it gives you an intriguing glimpse of current fads and fascinations.
A few weeks ago, a science festival in Genoa, Italy, gathered together some leading lights to discuss the one aspect of futurology that excites us all: cosa farà cambiare tutto — this will change everything.
The event was organised by John Brockman, a master convener, both online and in real life, and founder of the Edge Foundation, a kind of crucible for big new ideas.
With him were two leading lights of contemporary thought: Stewart Brand, the father of the Whole Earth Catalog, co-founder of a pioneering online community called The Well and of the Global Business Network; and Clay Shirky, web guru and author of Cognitive Surplus: Creativity and Generosity in a Connected Age. ...
When I received the invitation to write here, there was the question of whether the new columns would have names different than those of their authors. I was thinking about some possibilities. The first idea was to be a "name dropper," the English term for those in the habit of naming names of important people to impress listeners. I even thought about beginning all the texts with some name and gradually forming an idiosyncratic biographical catalogue, which could be useful for adventurous spirits.
The fact that I have not found a good ironic translation for such an expression in English, made me give up the gam in the end. So thought about the title "Frontier". In the background, still thinking in English: I movied towards "the border" in the direction of "edge". The columns would deal with only the cultural production that crossed limits established for the common place, transforming the world or inventing new ways to think about life. My inspiration came from a number of different things such as "Close to the Edge" or Brian Eno's Edge feature"A Big Theory Of Culture". But mostly, I wanted to emulate, in absurdly individual and uselessly pretentious way, the site http://www.edge.org/.
I tracked the trajectory of John Brockman, the man who founded Edge before the Web existed. I bought the first book in his series "The Reality Club" at the time of its launch in 1990. I was impressed with such an interesting gathering of thinkers, coming from different areas such as the philosopher Daniel Dennett, the biologistLynn Margulis, or psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. I learned that what was published there was only a sample of much greater diversity. The Reality Club's monthly "invitation only" meetings in New York — which began in 1981 — is a fascinating group that includes the physicist Freeman Dyson to theater directorRichard Foreman, almost all of my idols. The motto of the club was ambitious: "To arrive at the edge of the world's knowledge, seek out the most complex and sophisticated minds, put them in a room together and have them ask each other the questions they are asking themselves."
Today, the meeting room has become the website Edge. The transformation has not exactly been democratizing. The club remains as elitist (not a criticism, an observation) as before, maybe even more, since its members have become celebrities (sign of the times: today scientists can be more pop than Mick Jagger) and many of them are incredibly rich. It is not an open site where anyone can contribute, but remains invitation-only, editorially driven. The difference: the general reader can now monitor the selected conversation almost in real time, after a light filter. Brockman still decides who may speak at the forum. Currently he is one of the more powerful literary agents in the world (specialized mainly in science books), managing to convince the major publishing houses to pay millions in advances to his clients. (One of the legends that revolve around his working method is that if a book begins to earn royalties, he says that he's failed — because he didn't get a large enough advance from the publisher). Brockman is the agent of Richard Dawkins, Jared Diamond, Martin Rees and others of the same caliber.
"An invitation to the 2010 dinner was not easy to come by as the figures who were present were the owners of Google, Twitter, Huffington Post, Bill Gates, Benoit Mandelbrot (fractals), Craig Venter (Human Genome Project). Do I need to drop more names? A bomb at dinner and we would lose much of a certain creative intelligence that drives our world and our future, or the future that these people have created for all of us. The nerd on the edge has now became the center of power."
The site has several sections. In one of them, a sort of "lifestyles of the rich and famous" — of the people Edge considers the most interesting and intelligent in the world — is an album of photos of an annual event hosted by Brockman, originally named "The Millionaires' Dinner" which was later upgraded to "The Billionaires' Dinner." An invitation to the 2010 dinner was not easy to come by as the figures who were present were the owners of Google, Twitter, Huffington Post, Bill Gates,Benoit Mandelbrot (fractals), Craig Venter (Human Genome Project). Do I need to drop more names? A bomb at dinner and we would lose much of a certain creative intelligence that drives our world and our future, or the future that these people have created for all of us. The nerd on the edge has now become the center of power.
Another very popular section is the Edge Annual Question. Every year a new question is asked. In November, Richard H. Thaler, the father of "behavioral economics" (the hottest area in economic studies), asked the following question:"Can you name your favorite examples of wrong scientific belief that were held for long periods of time". So far 65 responses have been received, authored by, among others, the physicist Lee Smolin and artist Matthew Ritchie. This week a special question was published. The inquisitor is Danny Hillis, pioneer in super computing, who — under the impact of Wiki-Leaks — wants to know if we can or if we must keep secrets in the age of information.
But this is the festive aspect of the Edge. What makes my neurons burn are the regular features, which are frequently brilliant texts, such as the most recent:"Metaphors, Models and Theories", by Emanuel Derman, one of those physicists in the past decades who has left the university to attempt to discover the laws of financial markets. (I will go deeper into this subject in a future column.) And this is why I always come back to Edge. In the world of Anglo-Saxon ideas (that still prevail throughout the whole world, or among the elite of the world), there is no smarter guide.

• Edge.org has a solid collection of essays addressing these questions: "When does my right to privacy trump your need for security? Should a democratic government be allowed to practice secret diplomacy? Would we rather live in a world with guaranteed privacy or a world in which there are no secrets? If the answer is somewhere in between, how do we draw the line?"
Now comes the "binary-turn"? A Nerdisierung clues to the FAZ.
Some time ago I had - more in jest - the venerable Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung in a couple of tweets as "nerd-central organ" means . The cause was Frank Schirrmacher's full-page defense of nerds just prior to the election, the publication of offensive around the iPad unveiling or opening of the FAZ as a platform for self-confessed nerds, such as in the article by Frank Rieger (Chaos Computer Club). Once the word was the "central organ" picked up every now and again, I've been thinking about it again a bit and listed a few thoughts on the "binary turn" the FAZ.
What is clear is one thing: Frank Schirrmacher is the driving force behind this process, as a glance in its editorial of 23 January in which he for more digital intelligence and vehemently calls for Deuschland (a rogue is someone who even at that date, the nerd alarm bells ringing stops ). It could be that reorientation of the FAZ-Feuilleton debates and articles on digital culture, first of all an accompanying report on his recent book project Paybacksuspect behind, but that would be very superficial and would not Mr Schirrmacher's sense of justice issues.
of at least a few leads away from the genetic, bio-and nano-technology debates of recent years - - the content of this pivot is absolutely to be welcomed, because in fact, the public discourse in Germany to serious issues of digitization and its social consequences backlog. Gets a special twist this Nerdisierung but by every now and then breaking through arrogance and rejection of online culture - which are at very different points of the paper shows, for example, currently at the minimum of impact-side position in the case Hegemann.
If you look a little closer, then there are some indications that the FAZ for much longer is a place for nerds - a small clues.
Exhibit 1: The feature of 27 June 2000
Across different FAZ had the extract from the code of the human genome expressed one that to some as "not read the article in the latest media story" is . Opening up, a publishing initiative under the banner of John Brockman led "Third Culture" debate, which aimed at the entanglement of intellectual discourse between the natural sciences and humanities.The "digital revolution" was this time "only" opens with some Schirrmacher texts. But who knows, maybe coming soon still a spread in binary code.
Exhibit 2: The daily blog entry on page one
As a big journalistic break in the part of the relaunch of 5 October 2007, a color photo on page one of the traditional mounted. Since then, this teaser photo developed more and more of a daily journal. Of course comment on the picture and the accompanying text is a central theme of world affairs - but stylistically there are often elements of this reduction, reference and commentary, which are characteristic of the interior of the leaf often criticized blogosphere.
And maybe it's just a personal perception, but the captions have lately not always once again fallen below the magic 140-character limit? But even if not - many image Comments work exactly like a typical Twitpic-mail: The image illustrates a theme, an idea and the text uses references to the authorities for further reading in the Gazette. Formulated the other way around: the same way could the "Play" the FAZ twitter too.
Exhibit 3: The nerds are not just the features section
Not so much a concrete piece of evidence, rather a collection of evidence to the thesis - one looks only superficially different departments, then there are a surprising number of examples of "nerdy" reporting: the surprisingly flowery flaunted attention to detail of the "technology and motor" editorial or the often highly encrypted reports from the gourmet world. The Ins-sheet smuggling material from Duckburg by professing Donaldisten Patrick Bahners and Andreas Platt House is one of them as well as the knowledgeable "network economy" every Tuesday in the business section - all these are small indications of the anchoring of the FAZ in the proverbial nerd culture. Taking FAZ.net added yet, you should at this point to the incorporation of Don Alphonso and Michael Seemann be mentioned.
But what is certainly the result of this partial and expandable "evidence" is? Is there one?Starting point for considerations was indeed the rather humorous name of the FAZ as "nerd-central organ", a volatile leaf criticism has provided at least some evidence of elements of the much-quoted last "nerd culture". So what?
To say it once again clear: the demand for more "digital intelligence" or better: the increased talk of "digital subject" in the German public support is essential to - Schirrmacher Paybackand the theories of information overload of the defiance. However, the term should be the "Nerds" or "nerd culture" spelled out a little clearer than it is now - otherwise converts the FAZ a fine line and does attack. Where can this lead, has recently Thomas Knüwer shown before that an article by Frank Schirrmacher split has.
Such examples are also illustrates the fragility of the construction of a "nerd-FAZ", which does recognize the opportunity to strike the tone for a new social discourse, is here but would have to make a more accurate picture of the situation in the digital cultural front.
If you were a sophisticated and up-to-the-minute science buff in 17th century Europe, you knew that there was only one properly scientific way to explain anything: "the direct contact-action of matter pushing on matter," (as Peter Dear puts it The Intelligibility of Nature). Superstitious hayseeds thought that one object could influence another without a chain of physical contact, but that was so last century by 1680. Medieval physics had been rife with such notions; modern thought had cast those demons out. To you, then, Newton's theory of gravity looked like a step backwards. It held that the sun influenced the Earth without touching it, even via other objects. At the time, that just sounded less "sciencey" than the theories it eventually replaced.
This came to mind the other day because, over at Edge.org, Richard H. Thaler asked people to nominate examples of "wrong scientific beliefs that were held for long periods." He also asked us to suggest a reason that our nominee held sway for too long. ...
There's a fascinating list of scientific ideas that endured for a long time, but were wrong, over at Edge.org, the Web site created by the agent and intellectual impresario John Brockman.
The cautionary tale of the fight over the cause of stomach ulcers, listed by quite a few contributors there, is the kind of saga that gives science journalists (appropriately) sleepless nights. One of my favorites in the list is the offering of Carl Zimmer, the author and science journalist, who discusses some durable misconceptions about the stuff inside our skulls:
"This laxe pithe or marrow in man's head shows no more capacity for thought than a Cake of Sewet or a Bowl of Curds."
This wonderful statement was made in 1652 by Henry More, a prominent seventeenth-century British philosopher. More could not believe that the brain was the source of thought. These were not the ravings of a medieval quack, but the argument of a brilliant scholar who was living through the scientific revolution. At the time, the state of science made it was very easy for many people to doubt the capacity of the brain. And if you've ever seen a freshly dissected brain, you can see why. It's just a sack of custard. Yet now, in our brain-centered age, we can't imagine how anyone could think that way.?The list grew out of a query fromRichard Thaler, the director of the Center for Decision Research at the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business and coauthor, with Cass Sunstein, of " Nudge: Improving Decisions About Health, Wealth, and Happiness." (He also writes a column for The Times.)
Here's his question:
The flat earth and geocentric world are examples of wrong scientific beliefs that were held for long periods. Can you name your favorite example and for extra credit why it was believed to be true?
Science can contradict itself. And that's OK. It's a fundamental part of how research works. But from what I've seen, it's also one of the hardest parts for the general public to understand. When an old theory dies, it's not because scientists have lied to us and can't be trusted. In fact, exactly the opposite. Those little deaths are casualties of the process of fumbling our way towards Truth*.
Of course, even after the pulse has stopped, the dead can be pretty interesting. Granted, I'm biased. I like dead things enough to have earned a university degree in the sort of anthropology that revolves around exactly that. But I'm not alone. A recent article at the Edge Foundation website asked a broad swath of scientists and thinkers to name their favorite long-held theory, which later turned out to be dead wrong. The responses turn up all sorts of fascinating mistakes of science history—from the supposed stupidity of birds, to the idea that certain, separate parts of the brain controlled nothing but motor and visual skills.
One of my favorites: The idea that complex, urban societies didn't exist in Pre-Columbian Costa Rica, and other areas south of the Maya heartland. In reality, the cities were always there. I took you on a tour of one last January. It's just that the people who lived there built with wood and thatch, rather than stone. The bulk of the structures decayed over time, and what was left was easy to miss, if you were narrowly focused on looking for giant pyramids.
What's your favorite dead theory?
Edge: Wrong Scientific Beliefs That Were Held for Long Periods of Time ...
Earlier this week Richard H. Thaler posted a question to selected Edge contributors, asking them for their favorite examples of wrong scientific theories that were held for long periods of time. You know, little ideas like "the earth is flat."
The contributor's responses came from all different fields and thought processes, but there were a few recurring themes. One of the biggest hits was the theory that ulcers were caused by stress–this was discredited by Barry Marshall and Robin Warren, who proved that the bacteria H. pylori bring on the ulcers. Gregory Cochran explains:
One favorite is helicobacter pylori as the main cause of stomach ulcers. This was repeatedly discovered and then ignored and forgotten: doctors preferred 'stress' as the the cause, not least because it was undefinable. Medicine is particularly prone to such shared mistakes. I would say this is the case because human biology is complex, experiments are not always permitted, and MDs are not trained to be puzzle-solvers–instead, to follow authority.
Another frequent topic of disbelief among Edge responders was theism and its anti-science offshoots–in particular the belief in intelligent design, and the belief that the Earth is only a few thousand years old. Going by current political discussions in America it may seem that these issues are still under contention and shouldn't be included on the list, but I'm going to have to say differently, and agree with Milford Wolpoff:
Creationism's step sister, intelligent design, and allied beliefs have been held true for some time, even as the mountain of evidence supporting an evolutionary explanation for the history and diversity of life continues to grow. Why has this belief persisted? There are political and religious reasons, of course, but history shows than neither politics nor religion require a creationist belief in intelligent design. ...

So, Hello all!
I'm still kinda on Hiatus but Trying to make my way back into the world of RP.
It's come to my attention that there is a website known as Storium which offers as a New Platform of RP. I am thinking of joining the beta test so I'll be putting a review in the journal later.
joining the beta is requires a 10 USD backing
a discount year membership, which will be 25 USD when it launches, is 20.
I think it's a great way to, tbh, get away from deviant art as the main medium of RP. As well adding Gameplay elements which will make RP just that much more fun, more akin to DnD.
If anyone is interested, or happens to have one, Send me a note or comment! I plan on getting an account soon enough!

I didn't take modern math. But by the old school math it would be about .48 cents per round. This would be $48.00 per 100 or $24.00 per box of 50. You will have freight on this which will increase the cost as well. By your numbers it would be $1,000 per case. That would be well
I like all kinds of old firearms. My favorites are the Southern Mtn Rifles. They were not all X-mas trees like the Ky Rifles. The Southern Mtn Rifles were not all "Poor Boys" [A modern term]. This is a Rifle and Pistol made for me by Steve Zihn .54 caliber flinters. The "Rock" guns will transport you to another time
Ya know, if I had to choose one I think I might go with our .30-40 Krag-Jorgensen. It is graceful, buttery-smooth bolt, was our FIRST bolt action main battle rifle, our first main smokeless powder arm, first main .30 caliber, and was really designed as a single shot rifle that COULD be fired as a repeater when need be as strategy and tactics transitioned. Even the bayonets are sweet...
Dead Bears, the only good kind.
50 caliber Mark 7 gun. You can't even find ammunition for it.
I heard a tidbit that John Garand was actually hired by the u.s army to translate French designs for a semi auto to English. Garand also incorporated the Mauser style clip. The rifle was originally going to be a .280 caliber but the depression came around so the u.s put 30-06 in the rifle. Also if you look at a Garand trigger system and an at 15 they look very similar. And finally, the AK and AR both use Garand safeties.

Did Giants and Jets Make Right Selections in First Round of 2014 Draft?
The 2014 NFL Draft kicked off last night with the telecast of the first round. Rounds two and three will be held tonight, with the remainder being completed on Saturday. The Houston Texans did the right thing by selecting South Carolina defensive end, Jadeveon Clowney with the first overall pick. The once-in-a-decade type athlete will be paired with JJ Watt and form a very dangerous pass rush for the Texans.
The Jacksonville Jaguars selected the first quarterback in this years draft, and no it was not Johnny Manziel or Teddy Bridgewater. With the third overall pick, Jacksonville selected Central Florida's Blake Bortles. Manziel in fact, slipped all the way down to No. 22 when the Cleveland Browns made a trade to nab him. Bridgewater was the final pick in the first round, by the Minnesota Vikings who obtained the spot from the Seattle Seahawks.
That's the big news around the country, but the local teams each selected one player in the first round. Let's take a look at how they did…
Evaluating the First Round:
Neither the Jets nor the Giants impressed me in Round 1.
Giants Pick – Round 1, Pick 12
Odell Beckham Jr, WR – LSU – 5'11" 192
Sal's Big Board: Rated as #5 WR
Good but not great route runner; Can play X, Z or slot; Good ability to stretch the field; Versatile player who in 2013 caught 59-1,152-8 and broke LSU's single season record for all-purpose yards (2,315). He will be a solid NFL starter.
Not a true burner as a deep threat; Lack of physicality on the line of scrimmage may present a problem at the X on the NFL level; Prone to drops.
Sal's Grade:
Beckham Jr is a solid first-round pick but not who the Giants should have taken. Seems like a fall-back when TE Eric Ebron was taken. This team needs help on the OL and DL and plenty of quality options were available. If the Giants insisted on a WR USC's Marqise Lee fits the mold and could have been picked later. The Giants should have traded down to get more value out of the 12th pick.
I would have taken:
- Aaron Donald, DT – Pitt
- Zach Martin, OT/OG – Notre Dame
- Trade down
Jets Pick – Round 1, Pick 18
Calvin Pryor, FS – Louisville – 5'11" 207
Sal's Big Board: Rated as #3 Safety
Big hitter and solid against the run; Strong and physical; Good zone defender; Playmaker -in 2012 forced five fumbles and in 2013 forced 2 fumbles.
Not a "first-round" type athlete; Didn't show much ability to play man coverage; Aggression makes him prone to giving up a big play
Sal's Grade:
I had Pryor as the number three safety and none had been selected at this point. This is a team that desperately needs offense and plenty of players were available as only one TE and three WR were off the board. If the Jets wanted DB there were plenty of options I liked more at safety (Clinton-Dix and Ward) as well as at the CB position.
I would have taken:
- Brandin Cooks, WR – Oregon St
- Marqise Lee, WR – USC
- Darqueze Dennard, CB – Michigan St.
There you have it…do you agree with Sal's analysis of the players that will be suiting up for Big Blue and Gang Green next year?

Good Morning! Crankin us up this morning! I sure do miss Mamacita! I'll be back in a bit.
South Beach Diet - Tgif 02/11View Full Version : Tgif 02/11 Bamiegurl 02-11-2005, 08:15 AM Good Morning! Crankin us up this morning! I sure do miss Mamacita! I'll be back in a bit. ellis 02-11-2005, 08:28 AM Holy! Only one post, and it's Bamie, to boot! :lol3: Good morning, Bamie! :wave: I'm taking my mom (the real one) out for breakfast and then to a second hand bookstore. Hope everyone has a good day... hopefully will be back later. Hugs for all of you... :grouphug: cottagebythesea 02-11-2005, 08:42 AM Morning Bamie, and all the rest of you, too! Nothing has been going on around here, I've been lazy and have a case of the winter blahs. It's not helping that my weight has stalled, but at least I haven't gained anything! I'll have my little ones all day today, and I'm taking them to the Mall for something to do. There's an indoor playground there, so they can run around and burm off some of their energy. It's just been too muddy to let them play outside and we're bored to death of being stuck indoors. Supper tonight is going to be a Shrimp Stir-Fry. I made chili last night, and it was awful. I was in a hurry and hungry, so I just threw it together for something fast. Jake ate it without complaining, so maybe it was just me? Well, I'd better get ready to go get the girls. See you all later! cottagebythesea 02-11-2005, 08:43 AM Morning Ellis, have a nice breakfast with your Mom! Bamiegurl 02-11-2005, 09:06 AM Back for a quick check in. I have to finish laundry today I didn't get very far yesterday. The color I was goin to paint the kitchen may change since i don't have as much paint as I thought I did. I had bought this paint when we bought this house but then changed my mind for where I was gonna use and used it in my hallway instead and thought I had 2 gallons left but there is only one. Soooooo I may go with a light yellow to really brighten things up in there. But not real sure because the countertops are a black marble look. Why someone would put dark countertops in a small kitchen...I'm not real sure but they did. I think I have talked DH into building me a window seat in the breakfast nook where the bay window is. Well I am off to get busy. I have to pack for my trip as well. UGH! I'll check on y'all chicks and roosters later. Play nice today! lol Ellis...I hope you and your Mom have a good time. Don't buy out the store! lol Cottage... Have a good time at the mall! lol Ruthxxx 02-11-2005, 09:13 AM Good morning! It's a gorgeous sunny morning here and the world is all blue and white and sparkling! No winter blahs here. The Girls love fresh snowe and are a delight to watch as they cavort in it. (Cavort? I don't think I've ever used that word before!) Cottage, come to whe window and take a peek! Enjoy the playtime at the Mall. Hmmm - I have some shrimp. Thanks for the dinner idea. Bamie, thanks for starting us up. I may have missed something but who are your trainees? Are you giving elocution lessons or sumthin? (Sorry! Couldn't resist that crack.) Black countertops? What were they thinking? Ellis, have a good morning with your real Mum. Is she still OK? And how's the kitchen today? I haven't caught a mouse in mine for a week now. Are yours all gone? Today I plan to move the rest of the woodpile from beside the deck to onto the deck. We will be getting another two cords and I want the old wood segregated from the new wood. Watch, now that I have more wood coming, we will have an early spring and I'll be hauling it from beside the deck into the barn and *****ing all the time! This afternoon I have to go to the bank and get the accounts switched over to new signing authorities for the Cemetery Board. Doesn't that sound exciting? I also have to walk Miss Lucy down to our bank here in town to have her apologize to Connie the Head Teller because the PITA doggie chewed up another $20 bill! (I must learn not to leave my jacket over a chair.) What's happening chez toi today? tlcstar 02-11-2005, 09:24 AM Hello All- My paper got done yesterday (via caffeine) and the presentation went great...so once again my procrastinating ways have been reinforced!! I'm sure I will be in the same boat next week..... I am in a PhD program and have gone back after working for several years.....I definetely would have perserved my brain cells better if I had known I were to take this path! I have to plan my procrastinating to allow for the age delay!! Bamie- I love painting walls yellow....I had a tiny 2 room apartment in NYC and painted all of the walls a light yellow, it really helped brighten it up and make it appear roomier. I hope everyone had a great day! Peace- Toni Bamiegurl 02-11-2005, 09:26 AM Ruth.. I am a Home Interiors and Gifts consultant and I had 6 new recruits this week. They will place their first order on Monday so I have to go and show them how to do it all online. Fun Fun! lol Your on a roll this morning crackin jokes usin new words! Must be Frisky Friday for Ruth! lol chipper15173 02-11-2005, 09:36 AM Morning all; Ellis - Have a nice time with your mom. I love going to the book stores. Bamie - I just painted my small kitchen a light yellow with a muted sage green trim. You can go to BEHR.com and put in color selections and get different ideas. We weren't sure what to paint the ceiling, so did that and we went with a very light purple. It turned out nice. I have been thinking of my living room next, since when this loan stuff is over I am getting a huge bay. It will be 82" wide by 58" long. Have to repaint to go with that. LOL. Cottage - Have fun at the mall. My girls are going nuts also. It's going to be cold today, so have to find something new and fun to do. DS got a big remote control car for his b-day yesterday, so the oldest can go with him up to the emtpy parking lot to run it today. He turned 24 and has been having fun with this car. We didn't know what to get him. Me - Been doing good OP. Have lost 3 of the 7 I had gained off program. Not much new here today either. I too have to get some laundry done. Girls fell asleep, so now I can get somethings done, but, have to be quiet. Will check back in later at nap time. Ruthxxx 02-11-2005, 09:39 AM Must be Frisky Friday for Ruth! lol I wish! :( Thanks for the explanation, Bamie. I remember your mentionming it before but must have had a brain fart! Toni, I'm glad you got the paper done. Yes, our ability to come through after procrastinating becomes more difficult with age. What PhD are you going for? Rayneysmom 02-11-2005, 09:56 AM Good Morning all :coffee: This is gonna be short - got work to do this morning. Hope everyone has a great day. Oh BTW Bamie, we really should tell these Northerners that THEY are the ones with the accents. Just cause we don't enunciate our words properly all the time and leave some letters out when we spell don't mean we caint. :lol: :lol3: :rofl: Maybe we should send them a Southern Dictionary over yonder:lol3: :rofl: Whatcha think Hope everyone has a great day on the beach. I'll check back in later :grouphug: :dancer: Bamiegurl 02-11-2005, 10:28 AM Yeah We don't talk funny they listen funny! ROTFL! JennPGH 02-11-2005, 10:36 AM hello all, i think i did pretty well yesterday! yay! let me know what you think- breakfast-ok this was a no, no, but I had some Life cereal. I did not feel good and wasn't going to eat at all, but then i took my BC pill and if i do not eat w/that, I get nauseated and i ran out of time. lunch-chicken breast salad (chicken breast, lettuce, portobella mushrooms, ranch dressing - small amount) snack-peanuts snack-half a carb options bar - question- are those allowed? it says 2 g net carbs but on the back it has 27 g carb and most are from "sugar alcohol." It wasn't that good anyway, which is why i only ate half of it. dinner-chicken salad again (not planned, just turned out that way) with bleu cheese drsg. this one had tomatoes and a small amount of carrots on it as well. FI had chick-fil-a sandwhiches and waffle fries (mmmmmm) snack-oatmeal (real, not instant) with cinnamon come on, whatdaya think? I know it is not perfect but it is better than i was the last two days! a broad abroad 02-11-2005, 10:44 AM Good morning all, Just wanted to report a case of the winter blahs in this corner. :blah: Can I share your beach blanket? How much longer 'til spring? Like several others, I seem to be stuck at this weight. I think I might try a spell of SBD w/counting calories and see if that will break me free! (after Valentines Day, that is :o ) Does anyone else hate that e-diets ad on the right side of the page, "drop a jeans size..." with the woman pointing her derriere right at us. :( It really annoys me. The teenage boy next door is blasting his music and his parents haven't even finished pulling out of the driveway yet. I hope this isn't an indication of the weekend to come. A hearty Welcome to our new Roosters, and Hello to the rest of the Chicks yet to peck in. JennPGH 02-11-2005, 10:49 AM a broad abroad- I HATE THOSE ADS TOO! they are so annoying. I hate those, and those "get a date" ads in Hotmail. Ruthxxx 02-11-2005, 11:08 AM Well, Chickies, those ads pay for this free site! However, you can go ad-free for a small fee. See http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35036 JennPGH, what Phase are you on? I see some no-no's for Phase I, including the carb options bar. See the post on Atkins bars. http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/showthread.php?t=53282 Broad, I'm stuck too at 199 and have resorted to counting calories with fitday. :( JennPGH 02-11-2005, 11:27 AM Ruth, u r right, we should not complain if it is free! I am on Phase II. HunnyBee 02-11-2005, 11:56 AM Hi Ladies.. I am /must be a sugar/carb addict.... I had a mini choco bar yesterday and a Fiber One choco square. After that it took all my willpower to not eat a loaf of bread and Pasta. I told DP I wanted to eat the dashboard. :eek: Anyway, got home and made lean steak stir fry (no sauce) and made dp rice. I had a fat free pudding with some peanuts (10) for dessert. :) I had boiled cabbage (my new comfort food w/ Soybean oil butter flavored spray) for snack at 430p. I was still Hungry.... No more choco unless it's pudding or something. Help!! Doesn't help that my SB buddy at work is not here--she's in Vegas! a broad and Jenn--I open my internet in my Outlook so I don't have to look at Ads. BC I can't stand them either.. Like I want to see some Chic's butt. If it was Vin Diesel that would be another story. :rofl: Its Friday and I cannot wait to sleep in. (yeah right) :eating2: Going out to dinner with the Girls! beachgal 02-11-2005, 02:17 PM Morning, all! I'm late getting in here, so I know I'll have to keep my posts short! ;) Bamie, good for you starting us up, but do you ever sleep, girl? :lol: :coffee: Light yellow would be great and a good way to brighten up what is darkened by the counters. :yes: I am drooling and sooo jealous at your window seat! That is something I would LOVE to have! :love: Ellis, I think going to a second-hand bookstore counts as a workout for you. ;) Wish I could go with. I hope mom is in a good mood and sweet to you! :grouphug: Cottage, I hope today is a better day for you! We are cold her, but at least the sun is shining and the sky is all blue! :sunny: I hope your weather is similar and you get some good feelings back! :grouphug: Ruth, I love that you're making Lucy apologize. I guess "the dog ate it" is an appropriate excuse for not having enough money in your house. :lol: What a workout all that wood lifting will be, but sounds like you have a gorgeous day to do it! Toni, good for you! :bravo: I feel your pain...I'm doing my masters after seven years away from school and my brain is too old and tired for this! :lol: Glad everything worked out! What is your PhD in? Chipper, good going on those pounds! :D Rayneysmom, you are too cute! I'm reading a book about a school that worked on changing their spelling program. The kids worked on these "have-a-go" sheets where they had to write words they misspelled and then try writing them other ways to find one that looks more correct. The school is in Maine, and you would never believe the way the kids spelled their words...like "ovuh" for over, etc. I think it would be fun to see how Southern kids spell when they are little... :chin: Jenn, are you on phase 1? If so, you really do have to be "perfect"...which means no life cereal and no carrots, more veggies, and plan your days so you don't get caught! :D Also, the bars are a bad idea. Stay away from them. Instead, look for unprocessed things like veggies, lean meat, eggs, nuts, beans, fruit, dairy. Okay? :D That will make you feel so much better in the long run! I know you can do it...just keep at it, girl! A Broad: Sorry about those winter blahs! I know the feeling! I wonder if those last pounds are just really stubborn because you are so close to goal. You might want to PM SweetTooth, because I remember her going through something similar near the end. Is it possible that you are already at goal? It's worth thinking about. :chin: Hunny, think about what you said! You ate chocolate and THEN you wanted to eat the dashboard! Your blood sugar level dropped after you ate the chocolate (just like Dr. A describes in the book) and that made you crave simple carbs like the loaf of bread (not sure about the carb content of the dashboard :lol: ). You need to go at least 3 days (sometimes five) without any sugar (which is what Phase 1 does for you) to get these cravings out of there. If you find chocolate triggers it, don't eat chocolate. I know you don't want to live like this...so get that sugar out of your system and keep it out!!! I've found that malitol, even though it's a sugar alcohol, somehow produces those cravings in me (immediately! :o ), so I just avoid it, period. :grouphug: Me: Well, better head to lunch...not sure what I'm going to have. Either leftover mushroom and wild rice soup and a tomato-basil burger with a side of veggies, or a taco salad made with veggie taco meat. Either way, yumm! :T Still under 220, which is great. We'll see what the weekend brings. I didn't get to the gym this morning. I was so tired, and I went to bed by 11 again. Oy. :P I'm definitely going monday...don't want to let Amber down or go back on a pinky swear...who knows what could happen! ;) Have a great weekend, chickies (and roosters?)! Hope you celebrate V-day with lots of non-caloric treats. (some might even count as exercise! :devil: ) kissyjoy 02-11-2005, 04:31 PM Quick swim by today.... I am swamped this morning! It's chilly and rainy here today. How come the weather here seems to be the opposite of all you Canadian chickies? It's supposed to rain all weekend. We're going to the cabinet place tomorrow morning then it's a drive south for the So. Cal Vikings Club Dinner where I'll be dining with current and past Vikings. I already ordered my meal which is a lemon chicken and veggies. I should be able to stay OP for the most part! Bamie-I recently painted my diningroom light yellow and love it! It definitely brightens things up! I'll try to check back in later. I'm off to have some lunch! :) Bamiegurl 02-11-2005, 04:45 PM Well... I painted a lil bit of a wall the marble green and a lil bit the platnium blonde. I have to say so far I'm leanin for the green. It really makes it pop in there where the yellow looks lost. I will ask DH what he thinks when he calls me at my mom's tonight. Although I already know his answer! lol The yellow is what I used in my guest room and it looks good in there because only the trim is white but in the kitchen I think it is just blendin in because the cabinets are white. Maybe I will try to figure out how to post a pic and when I get back I'll have a chick poll! lol Well I will chat with y'all chicks later. Laurie... Here lately I feel like I never sleep! I almost started us up at 2 when I woke up the first time. Barb0522 02-11-2005, 05:21 PM I'm in the office today and it has been nonstop. I found 10 minutes to heat up my leftovers and then ate while on the phone. Took 2 hours to finish lunch. I'm better today but Brian is sicker. He started the day with 102.9 but it's a little lower now. I've called twice so far and he seems to be doing okay. He's not eating hardly anything but at least he is drinking and that is the most important thing. I have been eating a normal amount but the pounds are dropping off too fast. I'm down 8 pounds this month (5 1/2 since Monday) but I imagine it will stop soon. Probably as soon as I am well enough to start exercising again. Tomorrow I'm going out to pick up Scouting for Food bags. Brian won't be able to make it and I really need to help my den leader. She's been sick with pneumonia this week and probably shouldn't be out there. Hopefully enough boys will show up that it won't be too bad. We have 315 houses for our den of 10 boys to pick up from (and knock on doors if they didn't leave a bag out). Should only take a couple of hours. I wonder what the weather is supposed to be like at 9:30 in the morning? beach bum 02-11-2005, 06:40 PM Good Afternoon Ladies:) Glad that I found the 3fc web site,as I not new to the SB but need lots of support and I hope to give back of what I recieved. Happy its the weekend,and I can tamper myself, by relaxing and not doing house work. Saw some of your post and I can relate to being on Phase 2,when cravings start. Not for the sweets but for the salty snacks. My doctor told me that the salt cravings come from the lack of carbs.I try to stay on Phase 2 with the minumum amount of carbs[veggies, fruit, & milk products]and than once in a while go to the whole grain bread prods.So far I'm holding my own,but as soon as I go up I'm back to a STRICT Phase 1 . Have a nice evening Ladies Hugs :) BB Mamacita 02-11-2005, 08:23 PM Evenin' Chickies~~ :wave: Bamie, it's nice to be missed. :grouphug: I feel much better today. Actually got a full night's sleep last night. A rather creepy thing...there was a body dumped on a street very close to the nursing home while I was there this morning. Icky... (do we have a creepy shiver emoticon?) That's about the only thing exciting today. Ho-hum... I'll pop in tomorrow morning. Hope you all have a good night.

Coke Zero puts consumers through their paces in 007 ticket stunt
By Loulla-Mae Eleftheriou-Smith, campaignlive.co.uk, Monday, 22 October 2012 10:57AM
Coke Zero has unveiled the next phase of its 007 activity, which challenges people to unlock their inner-Bond by completing a series of tasks against the clock to win 'Skyfall' tickets.
The activity by Duval Guillaume was filmed in Antwerp. It targets Coke Zero drinkers who buy the soft-drink from a particular vending machine in the Belgium city's station.
The machine asks competitors to enter their name before being giving them 70 seconds to get to platform six. A series of challenges attempt to obstruct their way, including an escalator blocked by joggers, an orange stall and workmen carrying a pane of glass.
Musicians stationed at different parts of the journey play the Bond theme on a violin, beatboxing and on trumpets. The final challenge requires the contestants to sing the theme, at which point two tickets will drop out of the Coke Zero vending machine at the end of their task.
The work runs under Coke Zero's "Unlock the 007 in you" European marketing activity as it promotes its partnership with the latest Bond film, 'Skyfall', which opens this week.
Coke released a stunt-filled TV ad to promote the partnership last month, in which the latest Coke Zero "hero" rescues a girl from three men. All of the brand's work has been produced under the umbrella brand strapline, "Make it possible".

We'll save you some time and cut to the chase: you will enjoy the first episode of Back to the Future: The Game if the following conditions are true… 1) you've seen the first Back to the Future movie, or at least have a general understanding of the basic plot points, and 2) you bear no ill will toward the franchise and are open to the idea of an all-new adventure with Marty and Doc played out in videogame form, and finally, 3) you are willing to forgive the episode for a few stereotypical "adventure-game" moments of confusion and frustration before you hit the final payoff. Developer Telltale's newest episodic series has the biggest built-in fanbase yet, so we're pleased to report that it does its source films justice. That said, the game still carries with it the shortcomings of the traditional point-and-click genre, and it's too soon to say if the series will be able to maintain its momentum across five episodes.
Taking control of the red-vested, guitar-playing hero Marty McFly (voiced by an uncanny Michael J. Fox sound-alike), you'll travel from the "present" - the 80s, of course - back in time to the 1930s, a time of underground speakeasies and pinstripe suit-wearing gangsters. As we've come to expect from Telltale, the script, voice acting and cartoony art style here produce plenty of grins and fit the tone of the films perfectly. With Bob Gale, the screenwriter for all three BttF films at the writing helm, dedicated fans can expect to catch clever nods to the series' canon throughout the experience. The one and only Christopher Lloyd jumps right back into character as the raspy-voiced Doc Brown, while veteran voice actor James Arnold Taylor (Ratchet from Ratchet & Clank) does a great job portraying Doc from the 30s, a 17-year old, barely pubescent law clerk stuck under his father's thumb who needs Marty's help to unearth his secret scientific passions.
The first hour or so of the experience is great at pulling you in: walking around the charmingly-realized 1930s-era Hill Valley gives you the same initial sense of wonder that the films did; unfortunately, however, when the game gives you the most freedom to explore, it also slows the pace of the game significantly. You're charged with delivering a subpoena to a gangster and getting some alcohol from a speakeasy to fuel young Doc Brown's invention - these tasks are completed using the type of circuitous logic that adventure games are so often criticized for. You know, the use-the-dog-to-sniff-the-hat-to-uncover-the-key-to-unlock-the-door-to give-you-the-note-to-call-the-dentist-to-create-a-distraction kind of logic puzzle.

In today's hi-tech world, ensuring data security is of utmost importance. Whilst firewalls and anti-virus software protect from online threats, what protects your physical IT assets stored in the rack itself?
Despite many facilities now incorporating building management systems with swipe card readers to track who is accessing particular rooms, many server racks remain unlocked or fitted with standard key locks, leaving them at risk to anyone with access to that room.
With the importance of improving the cooling and energy performance of the Data Centre, Upsite Technologies recently conducted a study and found that on average computer rooms today have a cooling capacity that is nearly four times their IT load.
Data Centre Floor Tiles are responsible for maintaining the static pressure in the plenum under your Data Centre raised floor. This plenum contains your Data Centre's most valuable commodity - Cold Air!

Hi ~ Just like Ramona, she's suffering from yellow mottled leaves. All I did this early Spring was cleaned up her area better than before ~ other perennial neighbors were crowding the site ~ also pruned her ( not to the ground) scratched around her feet & dug up some wandering prairie plants. She probably prefers to leave her site alone ~ untidy. I didn't think I did anything to wake up the bugs!
Wonder what I should do to help her get better? In the album the last 3 were from previous years ~ please click to make pix larger ~ thank you! |
Here is a link that might be useful: Josephine sulking.
Follow-Up Postings:
Maybe you need to do a soil test? Maybe lacking something or an excess of another? Mine is always sadly a slowwww grower but she looks a tiny bit better this year. I would say do a soil test of the bed (but not when you've recently fertilized) and make sure that is not the issue. Can you propogate her by layering? Maybe that way you could at least get another plant to take her place? kentstar |
Thank you K~s ~ I should probably do that ~ now that for the first time she is behaving in this manner. I did scratched in, some Osmocote around her feet as I did the others ~ should wait a bit then. The only other time all 7 I have, except SAC, behaved poorly was when we had a boggy w/too much rain Jun one year~ followed by oppressive Jul ~ steamed cooked, almost but they survived! We've been getting seemingly incessant rains & intermittent cold days this Spring. I've never tried layering/rooting except for Hydrangeas. |

The opening round of the GHSA playoffs is hardly a fitting stage for offensive blunders and poor free throw shooting, but that did not prevent the Portal Panthers (18-11) from using it as such.
Statesboro's pitching proved to be suspect again as the Blue Devils dropped a 10-4 decision to Lee County Saturday afternoon at Mill Creek Regional Park.
Great teams aren't always great. They're just great when they have to be.
Statesboro begins what it hopes will be a long postseason road tonight as it hosts Banneker in the first round of the Georgia High School Association playoffs.
After failing to advance to last season's state basketball tournament, the Portal boys are right back where they know they belong.
THOMASVILLE - The No. 1 seed Thomasville Lady Bulldogs, Region 1-AA champions, defeated the Screven County Lady Gamecocks Friday, 76-60, in the first round of the GHSA Class AA state playoffs.
With a second consecutive Region 2-AAAA title already in the books, the Statesboro girls are now setting their sights even higher.
Sally Marie Futch, a senior at Bulloch Academy, signs a letter of intent to become a thrower for Jacksonville's track and field program. Pictured seated left to right: Father Floyd Futch, Sally Marie Futch and mother Dr. Lynn Futch. Standing, left to right: BA athletic director and girls track coach Clint Morgan and BA assistant coach Barbara Conner.
Statesboro got off to a rough start in this week's Blue Devil Diamond Days as it fell to Calvary in a lopsided 14-2, five-inning game Thursday night at Mill Creek Regional Park.
The Statesboro baseball team will get a big early-season test this week as the "Blue Devil Diamond Days" take place at Mill Creek Regional Park.
It took a crazy finish, but sophomore Tori Thompson's hat trick led the Statesboro girls over Effingham County for their first region win in a 4-3 victory Tuesday evening at Womack Field.
BROOKLET - The Screven County Lady Gamecocks (2-0, 2-0 Region 3-AA) defeated Southeast Bulloch 4-0 Tuesday in region action.
PORTAL - Portal won't forget Luke Anderson.
Metter exploded out of the gate and then hung on late to clinch a season opening 10-9 win over Statesboro Monday night at Mill Creek Regional Park.
PORTAL - Megan Anderson got her first-career baseball game under her belt, but Portal mistakes led to seven unearned runs for Southeast Bulloch as the Yellow Jackets knocked off the Panthers 11-1 in six innings Monday at Panther Field.
Two milestones were reached on the court Tuesday night against Augusta Prep… one by a player and one by a coach.
One night after a disappointing loss at Glynn Academy, Statesboro nearly let another big game slip away.
An elbow here, a push there and a wipeout on the hardwood were norm as Bulloch Academy swept Westminster of Augusta in a pair of aggressive and physical contests Saturday night.
PORTAL - Claxton and Portal have engaged in plenty of nip-and-tuck struggles over the past few years and Friday night was no exception.
While the Statesboro High basketball team travels to Glynn Academy tonight, future members will be on display at the Devil's Den as Langston Chapel Middle School and William James Middle School square off.
MILLEN - The Portal Panthers improved to 4-0 in Region 3A-A play with a 68-67 win Tuesday on the road.
Seniors led the way Tuesday night as Bulloch Academy pounded cross-county rival Robert Toombs in both girls' and boys' basketball action.
BROOKLET - After a quick start, it seemed as though Southeast Bulloch might let one get away against Beach High.
PORTAL - Woodville-Tompkins out of Savannah is the lone new addition to Region 3-A this season.
ALAMO - The Claxton Tigers earned a pair of wins on Saturday at Wheeler County.
Bulloch Academy erased a 24-point halftime deficit but it wasn't enough to overcome the multi-national force of Furtah Prep Friday night.
One of the best things about sports - at least for those who enjoy more than just one particular sport - is that the pages on the calendar can turn without the fun and games ever coming to an end.
After a pair of hard-fought games over the weekend, Statesboro ended its annual Gentlemen's Classic in style.
PORTAL - The Portal Panthers played a top-5 team from Class AA for the second game in a row, and got another win.
