Full Description & DetailsOn the night of Oct.5, 1995, I was riding in the car with my family on the way back from a wedding. We were approximately one and a half miles north of the town of Ankeny, Iowa, heading north on Ne 22nd Ave. It was approximately 10:00pm, and the dark night sky was fully covered with low-lying clouds. My little sister (then age four) was the first to notice the object. She pointed toward the east and yelled "Airplane, airplane!" However, it was no airplane. It was a large, completely stationary, glowing object. It had a main circular disk with two large beams coming straight out from it. Those beams formed a right angle, which opened up and toward the south. Each of the beams was connected to a slightly smaller disk. The main disk also had a long, thin, antenna-like structure attached to it. This structure was located in between the two beams, which formed two 45 degree angles. The main disk also had a hollow glowing circle in its center. This gave the appearance of a raised section, but I am uncertain. The object was directly east of us, at an approximate elevation of 60-70 degrees. It was slightly obscured by clouds, but heavily so. One strange trait was that it appeared to be back-lit, or it had lighting around the side. This gave it a distinct glowing characteristic. Despite its perceived size (I estimated 200-300 meters from edge to edge), it remained perfectly motionless. The clouds that slightly covered it were moving north-south at a rapid pace. This convinced me of the object's solidity.
Other CommentsI'm a natural-born skeptic. I don't believe in ghosts or spirits. I hold all close-encounter reports to be highly suspect. However, I can't change what I saw. For me, the question remains: what did I see? I have done extensive research. For all my efforts, I can't find any reports that conform to mine. To my knowledge, all UFO's that have been sited have been convex in shape. However, the one I saw wasn't. I would appreciate any help you have to offer in this situation.

Full Description & Detailsone night i was walking here in sacramento i walked really far i ended up at the east end of an air force base called macllenan airforce base i wanted to use a phone so i walked down this street which dead ends to watt ave but before it hits watt ave their is feild well anyway it was still fairly dark and i was really tired so i got to this really big garage or a hanger their was a small office connected to the garage the light was on i peeped inside their was a tall coffee pot and the red light indicated it was on so i figured that somebody was their hopefully the night watchman their was also several styrafoam cups on the table meaning to me that somepeople were probably around so i took a walk to the other half of the garages i looked inside nothing but complete darkness i started to feel freightned so as i walked towards the parking spaces on the property their was three or four trailways busses parked i figuered they were their to be worked on later still i found no one so i walked back to the office door where at least i could sit and wait under the light well as i looked down at the ground trying to collect my thoughts i saw what appeared to be the small fetus of a human about the size of my hand the eyes were a dark color i thought about picking it up and at the same time miscarraige came into my now confused mind i glanced at it a few seconds more than as i raised my head over the landscape not to far in front of me were these really big holes in the ground what was happining was the peope were pulling out the old gas tanks and replacing them with new state of the art ones i was the only one their it was late night and next to the holes were these piles of dirt that had come from the holes but atop one of the piles of dirt sat this really big "grey "it was bigger than any man it had a really big black round eyes a reaaly big head and body as soon as i spotted it i felt this telepathic communication between the grey and myself i remember it telling me not to be freightned of but i was i was in shock i stared at it studying it almost amazed i had actually thought it was a giant rabbit disbeleiving what i was seeing was real i turned my head to the left then thats when i saw this really tall man 30 to 40 feet long sitting with his legs out and arms upstaring at me atop his head he wore a top hatjust like abraham lincoln wore i mean this guys length of his body simple astonished me now beyond being confused i was at a loss of words never had i ever imagined to see anything close to this as im looking at these things their was more telepathic communication it was really powerfull i was magneticin not being able to pull away or think on my own it was impossible i no longer thought on my own some how i was able to glance at them turning my head back and forth as to watch a tennis match then thats when i started seeing these really bright florecent lights raising out of the ground and the shapes were mathematically different from any on earth now i felt a sudden urge to get up and run somehow i couldnt then i broke away from the telepathic hold and visions as i looked back in front of me the fetus remained their i then stood up shaked my head back and forth once more i looked towards the things the strange colors and shapes back down at the fetus i then ran back down the way i came not noticing it had become morning daylight struck like a clock ticking on the hour i ran and i ran all the way to the east entrance of the air base i remember seeing the checkpoint charlie stopping every car every person asking for i.d.because it is protocal every individual maintains some type of clearance in order to enter a military base i walked on the base as if invisible not being questioned not being stopped i walked almost clear across the base with nobody asking where i was going or who i was i remember feeling very fatigued drained ready to collapse right their where i was walking on that long military base road than i approached a building so i sat down as i sat after walking for a good hour i thought id rest then a white military police car drove up as he got out he stated hello how was i doing i replied tired that i wanted to use a phone he stated well who was i did i have any identification i stated no but said my name he said well that was i accompenied by any one or if i got on the base with somebody that had clearance i stated no he then said well than i have to handcuff you i then said why i didnt know that i had done something wrong after all i thought i walked on the base im in the back seat of this make shift police car as we get to the m.p. station we walk inside he places me into this cage designed to keep prisnors while being interrogated or questioned i sat in their for two hours being asked repeatedly who was i where did i come from who my parents were my mothers maiden name finally he called my parole officer an stated that i was

Your goals and finances
Life assurance is designed to help your family cope financially if the main wage earner passes away. Some policies also offer protection you should you become unable to work due to a critical illness – you can find out more about critical illness cover here.
In return for paying premiums, the insurance company will pay out the agreed lump sum – known as the 'sum assured' – if the 'life assured' (the person covered by the plan) dies during the term of the policy. Plans can cover a single person or two people, such as a husband and wife.
Premiums are normally paid to the life insurance company on either a monthly or annual basis for a fixed period of time or in some cases, until death eventually occurs. The cost of these plans varies according to your personal circumstances such as the number of people covered, their age, previous medical history and the amount and length of cover required.
When you are planning for the future, life assurance can provide the reassurance of financial protection for you and your family. The money provided can be used to pay off a mortgage or any outstanding debts,or support your dependants financially by providing them with a lump sum or a regular income if you die.
It can also be placed in a trust for the beneficiaries of your estate to pay any Inheritance Tax that may be due on your death.
If you own a business, life assurance can provide a lump sum to help it through the tough times if you, or one of your key employees, were to die. Or, if you are partner or shareholder in a business, it can provide the money needed to buy the share of the deceased partner or shareholder.
With flexible cover and comprehensive benefits, our Protect life cover can give you peace of mind and financial protection. Rest safe in the knowledge that you and your family will be financially secure, whatever the future may hold for you.
Protect is a flexible life cover plan. It can include one or more policies, each with a different term and benefits, so you can tailor the policies to create the perfect fit. Three terms are available; fixed, rolling and whole of life. All three offer:
We offer fixed terms of 5 to 50 years with premiums guaranteed for the duration of the term.
This unique product term gives guaranteed insurance for life with premiums guaranteed for ten years at a time. At the end of each ten-year term you can renew the cover for a further ten years without any further medical questions. As the new premium will be based on your age at that time, it may increase significantly.
Protect guaranteed whole life cover policy offers guaranteed premiums for life (unless you increase the sum assured and your premiums will therefore be reviewed). As there are no premium reviews, you can be sure about the cost of your premiums for the future.
You can read more about Protect in the key features document and guide or speak to a financial adviser who will be able to discuss your options and recommend products to suit your needs.

They must be the best since they have the highest profit margins.
If Big Oil and M$ could improve their margins, I'm sure their popularity would improve. It's strange that people buy the most from the low margin businesses they hate the most.
Who says I'm irked?
If a company sells something I like for the right price, I buy. Otherwise I don't. I presume other people do the same. I do find the fascination in this forum with the value of Apple interesting. Why care about them any more than any other company? It's not like it's hard to find outfits with billions in market capitalization that everyone knows about.
Hey I'm a fan of Apple computers and I'm working with a power mac but I'm not sure that Apple having a bigger market capitalization than Microsoft is a good thing. Seriously if your only supplying a much smaller % of the market but your company is worth slightly more than your competitor on the stock market who is still supplying the lion's share of the market then where is the value for the stock holder?
I don't get it. Does anyone who understands the stock market well want to explain it.
Last edited by AnthonyG; 05-27-10 at 03:50 AM.
I'm not talking from a stockholder's perspective but from a consumers perspective. Apple makes more money; they have and adequate budget to make better products and the customer is happy. It's a win-win situation.
The only one's who are sad are the one's who dislike apple's success. Us "Gullible mac fanboys" totally ruin their day
Perfection? Give me a break. It's all about style. As if surfing the net, typing documents, and other stuff is so much different on a Mac. A trained monkey could use either system. Actually, he could probably figure it out without training.
If you were constantly having problems, you needed to quit installing so much crap or adding cheap 3rd party drivers/hardware. You don't need Steve Jobs to do that.
The only reason people respond to the fanboys is they come across like L. Ron Hubbard fanatics who divide the world into "Apple vs. everything else." That many other companies sell hardware is obviously something they haven't picked up on yet.
Happily, Toshiba, Dell, HP, Lenovo, etc (or if we're talking phones, HTC, Samsung, Motorola, etc) fanboys know no one gives a rat's ass about what kind of hardware they like so they don't blather incessantly about it.
If Apple really were so great, it would have taken over years ago.
PCs are MUCH more tedious to use than Macs.
Lol, Dell's come with crap pre installed! I was reminded of the awfulness of windows when I tried to get a scanner to work (on windows 7 no less). As of now, the feeder still does not work and no matter which driver I installed; it just refuses to work. Macs are practically plug and play.
Explain exactly what is so different. You click on the icon you want, the program pops up, and you can control what happens on the screen using your mouse, keyboard, or touch screen.
Again, there are different companies that make the machines so this is an individual company issue and is not inherent to the OS. Companies pay to have Dell and other outfits install crap, and Dell uses this to lower costs. It is not obligatory to buy the machines with crap on them, and even in Dell's case, you can get the machines without that.
As for your scanner problems, Windows should not be held responsible if you buy cheap crappy third party hardware that comes with poorly written drivers. There are plenty of products that work fine. People have fewer problems with Apple because you do not have the option of trying to use all this much cheaper 3rd party stuff. But this is not inherent to the OS.
Consider the Flash brouhaha with iPad. Apple doesn't want Flash on the iPad because they say it will make it not run as well and they'll get blamed. Apple is right about that. So they solve the problem by not letting consumers make that choice. But again, this increase in stability has been achieved through policy and not through technical superiority.
I will grant that many new Windows machines never run well, even if they are free of garbage. Especially at the lower end of the price range, you'll see some really low quality components. If you buy decent hardware, you won't get these problems. If you want a more accurate comparison of Apple hardware with Windows alternatives, compare it with the stuff in a similar price range, not the stuff at the bottom of the barrel.
I own both stocks but don't make the mistake of thinking that Apple is successful because of their computers. They are in the current position based on their other devices not their computers. I sell software to fortune 500 companies for a living, you know how many companies want our software on Apple, 0%. They are still primarily used for personal use, students and for creative design. MS still owns the corporate desktop. Apple gets a big margin advantage as they are selling to low volume customers and can get higher prices. MS is selling to big corporations who negotiate huge volume discounts. In addition MS sales get hurt by piracy much more than Apple does. MS is also struggling on the mobile device side as Apple and Android have stronger products.
The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard and the shallow end is much too large

Actually when I click on a windows program; it goes through a series of steps. First it has to think "did that guy just click the icon?", then once it finally figures out that I did click the icon it start opening it .... one...frame...at...a...time! Finally when the whole program opens up, it flashes a bunch of windows where you have to click OK or cancel some help windows etc...
I'm talking about a computer less than a year old here. These problems should NOT appear on a computer that new. It should take atleast 3 years. Another thing that bugs me is when I accidentally click F1. Help files take AGES to come up and I'm stuck till it finally appears so I can close it again.
I'm talking about a $500 Xerox scanner in my Boss's office at work.
Well it IS Apple's products. They're the creator and they create their designs according to how they see fit. Ever seen a high end artist draw a paining according to how the customer wanted it? Even high end bicycle custom frame builders do not build frames according to how the customer wants it done. They have a formula that works and if they deviated from it; their reputation suffers.
If you knew a guy who took every single McDonald's ad campaign and then had t-shirts and bumper stickers printed of the slogans, like "I'm Loving It!" and "You Deserve a Break Today." If this person took every possible moment to inform you of the day-to-day performance of McDonald's stock prices, and was completely incapable of seeing a Burger King wrapper without having a fit, that would be a really, really, really annoying human being.
But for whatever reason Apple fanboys find this to be acceptable behavior.
There is something wrong with your computer. Perhaps it has garbage on it. Maybe the antivirus is screwing it up. If it's a work machine, desktop management software that your IT dept is using could be causing problems.
I use an 8 year old machine at home and have none of those problems. I often go months without shutting it down or rebooting. I had my previous machine for 8 years too. The newest machine anyone in our office has is 3 years old and many are older. We do not experience these problems.
It's very possible that the driver Xerox supplied is garbage. It is also possible that whoever set up your scanner did something screwy or that hyperactive system management software on your computer is messing things up.
This may work for most home use, but it is not a realistic philosophy for most business environments. The need for highly specialized hardware and software is common. Heck, plenty of places develop their own tools.
As far as building bikes go, there's little point in getting a "custom" bike if all you're getting is something that's made from a less common cookie cutter. Meet my commuter:
It looks like a regular road bike, but it isn't. Aside from extra bottle bosses under the DT, routing for lighting and computer wiring along the fork and frame, and braze ons to take the rack I had built for it (below)
rear stays have been extended 20mm so I won't kick the panniers I mount when I'm commuting. The builder used info I provided to select tubing that would provide the sort of ride I was looking for. Naturally, size was tweaked so it fits perfectly (he put a couple spacers in the steerer tube just in case, but after 6 months I had it cut).
In any case, defining the problem away by not letting things interact is not a sign of a superior system. Rather, it is a sign of a philosophical choice to limit options to reduce the number of things that can happen.
Microsofts margins will be much higher, since their product is an intangible. They don't manufacture hardware, they write code. Apple makes hardware, so has far higher overhead. Given the point spread between the two, and look at their nut they have to carry to achieve that market placement, MS is in a much healthier position, even with the lower gross.
on light duty due to illness; please contact my assistants for forum issues. They are Siu Blue Wind, or CbadRider or the other 3 star folk. I am currently at home recovering from a couple of strokes. I am making good progress, happily.

DL man primed and ready to help drivers
It's a scary thought — going in the ditch in the middle of the night when roads are icy, it's cold, it's dark and everybody seems to be sleeping.
But now there's one more guy willing to answer the phone, get up and come out to help.
Dan "Scruff" Johnson recently opened up his own towing company called Anytime Towing and Repair.
Although the business — located a couple of miles north on Richwood Road — is new, Johnson is anything but a beginner in the field.

As Francis became the first pope in 25 years to visit South Korea today, Seoul's never-timid rival, North Korea, made its presence felt by firing three short-range projectiles less than an hour before he arrived, officials said.
Although North Korea declined an invitation to Seoul for the papal visit, Pope Francis plans to reach out to North Korea during his five-day trip in a Mass for peace and reconciliation on the war-divided Korean Peninsula. But Pyongyang has a long history of making sure it is not forgotten during high-profile events in the South.
The apparent test firing was conducted from Wonsan on the North's east coast and the projectiles flew about 220km, according to a ministry official who spoke on condition of anonymity, citing office rules. It wasn't immediately clear what the projectiles were.
North Korea this year has conducted an unusually high number of short-range missile and artillery test firings. Pyongyang has expressed anger over annual military drills between the United States and South Korea, which it says are invasion preparations. A new round of the drills, which Seoul and Washington call routine and defensive, are expected to start in coming days.
During his visit, Pope Francis also plans to beautify 124 Korean martyrs and encourage a vibrant and growing local church seen as a model for the future of Catholicism.
At an airport just south of Seoul, the pope shook hands with four relatives of a South Korean ferry sinking that killed more than 300 and two descendants of Korean martyrs who died rather than renounce their faith.
Some elderly Catholics wiped tears from their faces, bowing deeply as they greeted the pope. A boy and girl in traditional Korean dress presented Francis with a bouquet of flowers. The pope then stepped into a small, black, locally made car for the trip into Seoul, where he and President Park Geun-hye were expected to make speeches.
"Because our country has undergone many unfortunate situations, South Korean people are heartbroken. My wish is that the pope's visit can heal those heartbroken people," said Cho Young-rae, a 58-year-old Buddhist.
As his plane flew through Chinese airspace on the way to South Korea early Thursday, Pope Francis sent a telegram of greetings and prayers to Chinese President Xi Jinping. It was a rare opportunity for an exchange since the Holy See and Beijing have no diplomatic relations, and furthers a low-key push for better relations with China and efforts to heal a rift between the Chinese authorities and those Catholics who worship outside the state-recognized church.
Vatican protocol calls for Francis to send telegrams to heads of state whenever he flies through their airspace. Usually they pass unnoticed, but Thursday's telegram was unique because the last time a pope wanted to fly over China, in 1989, Beijing refused.
Vatican officials say there is a dialogue with Chinese authorities. But the core issue dividing them - Rome's insistence on naming bishops - remains.
Relations between Beijing and Rome have been tense since 1951, when China severed ties with the Holy See after the officially atheistic Communist Party took power and set up its own church outside the pope's authority. China persecuted the church for years until restoring a degree of religious freedom and freeing imprisoned priests in the late 1970s.
For the Vatican, the main stumbling block remains the insistence of the state-sanctioned Chinese Catholic Patriotic Association to name bishops without papal consent to administer over the country's estimated 12 million Catholics.
Other highlights of Francis' visit include his participation in a Catholic festival for young believers from around Asia. A ceremony Saturday to beatify Korean martyrs who perished for their faith from 1791 to 1888 could draw about 1 million people, South Korea's Yonhap news agency reported.
Authorities in North Korea declined an invitation by the Seoul archdiocese to send a delegation to attend a Mass, the Vatican said.
A few women forced into sexual slavery by the Japanese military during World War II will attend a Mass, although no private audience is expected, the Vatican said. The pope is also expected to meet with some families of the South Korean ferry sinking in April. The government's response to the disaster, which killed mostly high school students, has angered many South Koreans.
"A lot of bad things keep happening in our country right now, and people are going through tough times. So I hope this event can encourage people and bring more positive things to our country," said Ryun Sun-hee, a 19-year-old college student.
It's the first papal visit since Pope John Paul II travelled to South Korea in 1989. In January, Francis plans to visit Sri Lanka and the Philippines.
South Korea's church, which has been growing steadily over the last half century, is seen as a model for the future. Local church officials hope for a continuing increase in believers in a country that once welcomed missionaries to help spread the faith but now sends its own priests and nuns abroad to evangelize in other countries.
There was high anticipation in South Korea ahead of the visit. Banners and posters welcoming the pope decorated streets and subway stations. Yonhap reported an increase in sales of rosaries and other Catholic goods, and special displays of books on the pope and Catholicism have sprung up in book stores.

Fascinating read on what's going on between plays. JSOnline limits the number of times you can visit their site...

The game within the game is part of what makes him an elite quarterback
By Bob McGinn of the Journal Sentinel
Aaron Rodgers didn't get to where he ranks among the quarterbacking giants in the National Football League by excelling simply from snap to whistle.
There's another game, one in which Rodgers doesn't have the football in his large hands, that the Green Bay Packers franchise quarterback owns as well.
To Rodgers, the half-minute or so between the activation of the 40-second clock and the snap of the ball is as critical as what occurs afterward.
"For sure," Rodgers said in an extended interview Aug. 25. "Most of it isn't caught on camera. Who knows where the camera goes? But there's a lot of stuff that happens between 40 and zero on the play clock.
"From 40 to 10 is when all the film study comes into play. The recall from the reps in practice. The feelings I have as you're going through the film from practice and of the opponent, and marrying that up to the game plan."
The television networks often show replays of the previous play or promos for upcoming programs. Fans in the stadium look up to the Jumbotron or trade comments with friends. Reporters take their notes.
This is how the 29-year-old Rodgers, at the pinnacle of his prodigious nine-year career, says he conducts himself in the game within the game.
At Lambeau Field, where replays flash within seconds, Rodgers refers to himself as "just another fan" from 40 to 35 on the clock.
"Often, if you're not talking to anybody, you look up," he said. "You like to see a nice pass. You also can be your biggest critic."
If an opposing player happens to be nearby, Rodgers will chat him up.
"I like to interact with the guys on defense," he said. "That's the fun of the competition. For me, it's a gauge on where they're at mentally.
"That's what I always appreciated about Brian Urlacher. He was the most focused, determined guy between the whistles. After the whistle, he's someone you could joke around with."
Rodgers can speak clearly because he hasn't worn a mouthpiece since his collegiate days at California. He noticed that Brett Favre didn't wear one, thought it was a sign of toughness and never went back to it.
Maybe half of NFL quarterbacks use mouthpieces, according to Rodgers.
"What I struggled with in college is, I felt like I couldn't enunciate any words," he said. "How could the guys actually hear me? Or if you took it out you had to put it back in. It was too much."
Rodgers tried playing in gloves but didn't like it. He's always worn a large sweatband on his left wrist, a superstition more than anything else.
He also is sure to make mental notes off the previous play. It might be how the defensive end reacted as he faked on the back side of a run, or what he can see of a cornerback covering a receiver.
By the 30-second mark the voice of Mike McCarthy generally is being heard by Rodgers through the coach-to-quarterback electronic communication device.
There are two speakers in the helmet. When Rodgers had his helmet off during training camp and teammates cruised by, they invariably were stunned how loud it was.
"I'm, like, 'Yeah, try wearing it all the time,'" said Rodgers.
Rodgers' first experience with helmet electronics was a dud. The offensive coordinator for his eighth-grade team illegally wired Rodgers' helmet through which the coach called every play.
"We proceeded to lose, 33-0, to Oroville (Calif.)," he recalled. "So that didn't help."
Rodgers, who has never called his own plays for an entire game at any level, would have loved the challenge quarterbacks typically enjoyed 50 years ago.
"At that point it would have been a chess match between you and the defense," he said. "But often Mike gets me in situations where I can change plays pretty frequently."
Early in Rodgers' career, McCarthy would give him not only the play but possible checks (audibles) and other information. Today, says Rodgers, it's usually the play and formation only, although during their one-on-one meeting each Saturday Rodgers will ask McCarthy to read him on game day an agreed-upon reminder if he calls certain plays from funky formations.
By league rule McCarthy's voice automatically cuts out with 15 seconds left on the play clock, but that usually only becomes an issue if there's a delay knowing if it's a first down or not. Otherwise, Rodgers credits his coach with almost never being tardy.
Is it difficult for McCarthy to choose the next play a matter of seconds after the previous play?
"I like to think it's easy calling a game for our offense," said Rodgers. "I think Mike, over the last couple years, has realized that the simplest plays are often the best plays. It's being timely when he makes those calls, getting them in, and giving us the latitude when we need it to change."
Although the quality of sound inside Rodgers' helmet is excellent regardless of venue, there are times when McCarthy has to repeat the play.
"He's from Pittsburgh so he says everything very fast," Rodgers said. "You have to speak Pittsburgh to understand him."
If the Packers aren't huddling, Rodgers' attention might be distracted by conversation with a receiver or if he's studying the defensive sideline for a substitution.
When Rodgers has the play, he might give a thumbs up to McCarthy as if to say, "I'm good. I got it."
At times, McCarthy won't be on the proper radio frequency, talking to one of his coaches instead of Rodgers. When Rodgers signals that there's still no sound at about the 25-second mark, McCarthy will punch the proper frequency and hurriedly deliver the play.
Are there times when Rodgers forgets what play McCarthy told him?
"Occasionally," he replied. "There's a lot of stuff going on and I couldn't understand the accent. So you go with a safe play."
The foundation of the Packers' huddle is the five offensive linemen standing parallel to the line with their backs to the defense and facing Rodgers. That leaves the five skill-position players to fill the ends of the oval between the tackles and Rodgers.
Rodgers insists on having three of those players on his right and two on his left.
"I get a little OCD about it every now and then," he said. "If ever there's only two guys to my right I know something's up. That means somebody's usually running on the field or a young guy might have stepped to the left."
Another one of a quarterback's responsibilities is to be on the lookout for the glazed-eye giveaway of an injured teammate. He remembered sending running back Ryan Grant to the sideline one year in Philadelphia after he absorbed a blow to the head.
"Once I get in there I'm usually the only one talking," Rodgers said. "If we get the play in quickly and it's in the late 20s, I might ask them what count they want to go on or what check they want to go to.
"I like an input every now and then because I think it keeps the guys engaged. Especially the big guys have a real good feel how that defensive line is getting off every play.
"They know they've got two or three seconds there to spit something out. Or nothing's going to get done and I'm going to have the final say."
Rodgers regards hard counts as an essential tactic.
"The defense is so big and athletic, and teams know we like passing the football early and often," he said. "If you can make them wait for it to be snapped you have that half-step home-field advantage."
Rodgers gives his teammates the call in this order: shift and motion, formation, play, audible and cadence.
Despite being given increasing freedom at the line to change the play, Rodgers said that the play called by McCarthy is run "a lot. At least half the time."
In what Rodgers refers to as the Packers' "controlled no-huddle" offense, McCarthy calls the plays and his quarterback disseminates through word and signal. In two-minute situations, Rodgers said he usually calls the plays.
Either way, Rodgers is constantly giving individual tips to teammates in and around the huddle.
"That's what being a leader and a quarterback's all about," he said. "Even if it's not in the play call I'll make mental notes during the week that I probably should say this to this guy.
"Sometimes a guy might be thinking, 'Well, I might not be getting the ball on this one.' Sometimes those guys need a reminder like, 'You're not running a sponge, you're not a decoy. Run your route to win.'"
The play clock usually is in the low 20s when Rodgers saunters to the line.
"As you break the huddle you make sure everybody's running to the right spots," said Rodgers. "We've got to have seven on the line. The last thing you want is six on the line or a stupid penalty."
Then Rodgers gets his first look at the defense. Some teams disguise on almost every snap so that first glance against them isn't deemed critical.
"I take a look at the front," he said. "Often that will tell you what they're going to do. Then I get a look at the linebackers and corners and safeties.
"Keep your eyes on them and your guys. Make sure if there's a motion or a shift that it's done in a proper manner. If two guys are moving before the snap, make sure everybody gets reset.
"Then make sure you're keeping your eyes up for any type of movement by the defense or any verbiage you hear. You also take a look at the 40-second clock, make your check and then remember what the snap count is."
It's only natural that a less experienced quarterback might glance once too often where a running play is headed.
"But you can't," Rodgers said. "You have to play it off a bit. That's part of the art form. Trying to make the runs and the passes look the same.
"The more comfortable you are, the less you need second and third looks."
If the ball is to be taken under center, Rodgers probably ranks in the minority of quarterbacks when he wraps his throwing hand thumb (right) under his other (left) thumb. He says it's easier to keep his hands together and prevents fumbled exchanges; he hasn't had one since Week 3 of 2008.
Rodgers said: "I take a lot of pride in the little things."
The less time Rodgers has to be crouched under center, the better.
"I've always found it slightly uncomfortable to be in a flex position the entire time," he said. "A lot of times I'll have one hand in, I'll slip a second under, I'll be in a half-squat and then get under there. I like to keep moving and make sure we're on the same page and then get under there and get the snap."
As Rodgers surveys the defense over the back of center Evan Dietrich-Smith, he's eyeball-to-eyeball with the middle linebacker and little more than arm's length from massive, muscular defensive linemen itching to knock the quarterback into next week.
It's not much different from visiting your favorite zoo, only here the doors do swing open.
"It feels like it sometimes," Rodgers said. "You just have to have a lot of trust in your guys that they're going to block 'em."
There was a time, back at Pleasant Valley High in Chico, Calif., that centers would sometimes snap the ball early and/or low. Rodgers suffered a dislocated finger that way once.
"With Scotty (Wells) and Evan, the ball comes up firm and laces every time," he said. "That's very nice."
Rodgers played out of the shotgun at Butte (Calif.) College, taking the snap with his right foot forward. Pleasant Valley and the University of California never employed it.
McCarthy changed Rodgers' shotgun stance to left foot up. He's 41/2 to 5 yards directly behind center.
Maybe five seconds before the snap, Dietrich-Smith and Rodgers often will each call out the number of what they consider the middle linebacker so the four other linemen can formulate their responsibilities in pass protection.
Some of their declarations are bogus, Rodgers acknowledged.
The same type of ruse occurs late in the play clock, especially against NFC North Division teams that know the Packers oh so well.
"It's their disguise against my check," said Rodgers. "Who's going to give in first? Are they going to move first, or am I going to check first and they're going to check to something else? That's the cat and mouse game."
On the road in noisy venues, Rodgers will lift one of his feet from shotgun formation and the center then will snap the ball shortly thereafter without benefit of cadence.
With verbal commands made all but impossible, Rodgers makes checks through a variety of hand signals and glances to his receivers.
Again, some of those signals are fakes designed to throw off the defense.
Before the supportive crowds at Lambeau Field, Rodgers said his audibles almost always can be heard. In effect, he said he's at liberty to check into any play.
"If something pops in my mind that I've seen before I can check to that," he said. "Anything could hit my brain. Especially when you have Jordy (Nelson), James (Jones) and Randall (Cobb), they're going to know what I'm thinking."
Then the ball is snapped, a play is run and the cycle starts all over again.
"I love being a part of something special," Rodgers said. "I love being part of a team. I love being in a leadership position.
"I mean, it's tough. It takes a toll on you. Mental, physically, emotionally.
"The thing you don't think about when you're not in it are how the external impacts your everyday life more than maybe you expected. But the football has been a blast."

May 25, 2012 11:31 amTwo dairy economists recently released intriguing reports on the dairy provisions of the 2012 Farm Bill issued last month by the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry. The reports indicate that dairy stakeholders may not be getting their fair share of Farm Bill outlays and that the Dairy Market Stabilization program included in the Farm Bill would have limited the milk supply to processors nearly one-fifth of the time over the last six years.

Music to Your EarsDespite having the worst local band name since Tacos with Heidi, Las Cruces groove-metal quartet, New Mexican Erection, have just released their second skull-shattering full-length, titled Codependent (Nasty Cactus Music), and are gearing up to hit the road on an extended tour. For dates, where to buy the CD and other good stuff, visit NME on the web at www.newmexicanerection.com or www.nastycactusmusic.com. ... Local bandguy/music supporter and, for the past four years, webmaster of RockSquawk.com Dandee Fleming has announced that he's shutting his site down as of March 22. Fleming cites a busy schedule as the main reason behind his decision. Over the years, RockSquawk.com provided local musicians with a virtual meeting place where they could post upcoming shows, air dirty laundry, review shows, sell and buy gear, search for band members and discuss freely the ins and outs of the local scene. Fleming did a more than admirable job of attempting to keep the site positive and useful, and you should thank him and buy him lots of drinks the next time you see him. At press time, the site appears to be frozen, but it could just be my stupid computer fucking with me. | Today's EventsBlaze Ya Dead Homie • Boondox • rap • Trilogy • DJ Stigmata at Sunshine TheaterHanta • stoner rock • Spectral Voice • Negative Degree • YAR at LaunchpadEryn Bent • indie, folk at Corrales Bistro BreweryMore Recommented Events ›› | |

Dog Boy
From the critics
Community Activity
Add a CommentRomochka, at 4 years old, has been exposed to humans and language. When his family abandons him during Perestroika, he's taken in by a wild pack of dogs. He learns dog skills, is nursed by a mother dog and when he lacks dog skills, he uses his human wits to bring food back and contribute to his canine family.
But then scientists begin following the wild dogs. Much of what they plan to do are things you would agree to, as a human. But the brilliance of this book is how subtly it changes your thoughts to be more in tune with animals; to discover the word "humane" doesn't necessarily relate to humans at all.
This is a book that will resonate with you long after you finish it, and the ending has as much integrity as the whole tale. NOTE: The story is based on a real boy in Russia, who though raised by dogs, successfully returned to human life. though he admitted he still occasionally dreams in "dog."
This is not something I typically would read, but it was an excellent book. Made me think about so many things, but mostly that we are connected to our world in ways we don't recognize.

Dyer County, Tennessee
History & Genealogy
Feel free to email me with your contributions click here
Dyer County was founded in 1821 by settlers from Virginia and South Carolina and named for Colonel William Henry Dyer, who served under General Andrew Jackson in the war of 1812. ( Source: Collier's Encyclopedia)
Dyer County is made up of three incorporated towns. Dyersburg, Newbern, and Trimble.
Dyersburg was built on what was known as Melver's Bluff by the Okeena River. The Original plan for the town was determined in 1825. Melver's Bluff became known as Dyersburg when the town was incorporated in 1850
Dyersburg First:
( Source: Dyer County, Tennessee History)
Newbern is located on land that was originally the northern part of a 5,000 acre grant owned by J. W. Clark. In 1850, Owen Philyou of New Bern, North Carolina, staked a claim in the area where Newbern now stands. Newbern was incorporated as a city in 1857
Trimble had its beginning in 1873, the result of the building of a railroad from Paducah, Kentucky to Memphis, Tennessee which ended at a bluff near the Dyer County line just across the Obion River Bottom.
The County seat is Dyersburg.

Obama open mic slip: 'After my election I have more flexibility' - YouTube
Methinks the sentiment he's expressing isn't just about throwing the Poles under the bus regarding missile defense, but myriad other issues. Is Chicago-style gun law one of those issues? Don't know, but if congress sends him a bill like that, I'm pretty sure he'll sign it.
BTW, I think he'll be re-elected.

Important message ... The Executive of the CDNA is very concerned that people are parking along the fence line near the toilet block on training nights and on Saturdays. This is dangerous as young children walk (run) across the roadway to get to their cars in the parking spaces. This situation has become worse over the past few nights as people are now parking across the front of the bollards.

Embed .Mac Web Gallery thumbnails in RapidWeaver pages
The new .Mac Web Galleries are great, but they unfortunately can only be built by iPhoto '08 and integrated into iWeb pages. Thanks to this RapidWeaver forum post from Günter, however, RW users have a trick for embedding those slick scrolling .Mac Web Gallery thumbnails into their pages. The trick more or less involves creating at least one or more .Mac Web Galleries, opening iWeb and using its new widgets feature to embed one of your galleries in an iWeb page, publishing to a folder and copying the specific piece of .Mac Web Gallery code out of that iWeb page and into a RapidWeaver Blocks page.
It isn't exactly pretty, but I think I know of a way to simplify this process, at least for some of you. The way I figure it, if you're already publishing an iWeb page to your .Mac account with your galleries embedded in them, you can just open your iDisk and drill down to Web/Sites, find the page you published with that gallery code and simply grab it from there. No publishing to a folder and creating more junk to manage and delete, since you're already publishing those pages and code somewhere.
As far as looking at the code on those pages, you can of course simply open them in a browser and use the View Source command, or you can find a text editor like TUAW favorite TextMate or even the free Taco HTML. For more questions on this you can try in the comments here since I know a good number of TUAW readers are also RapidWeaver lovers, but the original RapidWeaver support thread where I found this tip might be a better place if you want to get more thorough answers faster.

This shirt design is a fusion of MGMT's "Time To Pretend" music video and the Hipster Kitty meme.

My son is outgrowing his T like this and I want one but ... seriously?! fix your T shirt sizing. Enough of this "we only buy from vendors who make crappy quality girly T shirts made to fit anorexic 10 year olds." The first shirt I ever bought from Threadless was excellent quality and my son can STILL wear it ... but not anymore. How sad.
Anyway, please reprint this on whatever it is you have for female humans these days ... we'll just work around the sizing BS.

Here you can post what you thought about the season in detail or not...
Alright, well the season began with one of the most awkward episodes ever, Megan Fox. She was a really awkward host who was like a robot and acted like Megan Fox and only Megan Fox throughout the show. Then, Jenny Slate, a newbie, dropped the F-bomb lol. The sketches were bad, U2 had like 345678 performances with Bono thinking he's cool. It sucked
Then, Ryan Reynolds made an awesome episode. Great sketches like Family Feud, Deep House Dish, Mike's Fountainry, So You Committed A Crime & Think You Can Dance, etc. Lady GaGa was amazing with her two out there but good performances. She introduced Bad Romance to the world. And there were cool cameos by Madonna and Scarlett Johannsson.
Then, one of my favorite gals, Drew Barrymore, hosted for the 6th time. Very good episode, i liked the Gilly, Cooking al fresco, Celebrity ghost stories, La Rivista Della Televisone, the digital short etc. Very good episode.
Then, one of the weirdest SNL's ever, Gerard Butler. It wasn't him that made the episode weird, it was that the whole epiosde was bought by Bud Light Golden Wheat, it felt weird, and felt like it was dragging on. Well, We got to see what up with that for the 1st time, it was ok, Beauty and the Beast was good, that Skank champagne commerial was weird, Shakira was decent.
Then, Taylor Swift did host and MG, which i found weird, she sang on SNL in January of the same year, not a bad episode, pretty good.
Ugh, do i have to say it? Well, i guess i have to. January Jones, ugh. She was one of those typical RANDOM hosts Lorne gets. The sketches were ALL garbage, the peas were annoying, it was horrible, WORST EPISODE OF THE YEAR!!!!
Then came SNL THe MUSICAL!!!! nah it was just Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
i'll continue later...........

Coaching Program
CORD Academy for Scholarship Coaching Program
The CORD Academy for Scholarship in Education has started a new CORD Coaching Program for EM Educators. This faculty coaching program will be a voluntary peer coaching program that consists of direct observation of your teaching/lecturing skills at national meetings followed by a formative feedback session. The program will be modeled after the University of Colorado's Academy of Medical Educators iTeach Program.
Trained coaches will be Distinguished Educators from CORD's Academy and, for now, participants must be a CORD Member. The Program will involve three elements:
- A pre-observation meeting/communication between the coach and educator to review expectations and self-reflections
- Direct observation of your national presentation using either a large or small-group structured feedback form
- A post observation session to review your strengths, weaknesses and recommendations with respect to your teaching
The CORD Coaching Program will be offered at CORD, SAEM and ACEP each year, and is set to start at this year's Scientific Assembly in Denver, Colorado. Space will be very limited given the limited number of Distinguished Educators within the Academy. However, as the Academy grows, we hope the program will too. Participants must be engaged in all aspects of the programs and make the time for all three meetings.
If you have a national presentation coming up and would like to reserve your spot in the program please either:
Complete the online form
After you have signed up for a coaching session please complete the form below prior to the session and either fax or email to the addresses below:
Reflections Prior to Your Session
For general question about this new CORD Coaching Program you can contact email@example.com or DeAnna McNett, firstname.lastname@example.com or 1.888.444.2090, ext. 3229.

The Marine Quarterly is a new kind of sea journal, reporting subjects of strong interest to everyone who goes on the sea. It is full of big, authoritative articles on sailing, fisheries, adventuring, merchant shipping, conservation, natural history, heritage, trade, naval matters, nautical books, and anything else connected with salt water.
Its contributors are people who know how to tell a good story well. Topics for the first sixteen issues have included the reminiscences of a nervous gap-year student who found himself sailing to Greenland with the adventurer Bill Tilman; an account of the Thames barge and its modern descendants in the coasting trade; instructions on how to swim the Channel; the strange case of the Cutty Sark; Kaiser Bill's hilarious Cowes Week; travels with the plankton; how to winter in Antarctica; epic circumnavigations under sail; a voyage to South Georgia; fisheries vandalism and skulduggery; the infamous Shetland mackerel laundry; the deeply informal beginnings of Caribbean chartering; and the strange disappearance of the Atlantic salmon. In the next four issues we will be explaining the world of the aircraft carrier, navigating the Intracoastal waterway in a catboat, printing new fiction, and telling the stories of the lost world of radio operators and a year in the life of a superyacht. For further details, take a look at the extracts page.
The Marine Quarterly is also keen to remind its readers of great sea writers who have slid over the horizon. We have already reprinted excerpts from George Millar, the forgotten sailing narratives of Hilaire Belloc, the intrepid but relaxed Ernest Gann, the brilliant but nearly-forgotten Alf Loomis, and Rudyard Kipling. We will soon be publishing work by (among many others) the cruising writer and part-time treasure hunter E. F. Knight, and more from the great Neil Munro, creator of Para Handy.
The Marine Quarterly is 112 pages of intelligent sea reading. It is published in a useful pocket size, printed on hefty paper, illustrated with charts, woodcuts and line drawings, and has been greeted with appreciative remarks from readers all over the world.
The current issue, number sixteen, is published in December 2014. There will be further issues quarterly hereafter – the next will be sent out during the first fortnight of March 2015. Subscribers who would like to buy back issues should tick the relevant boxes on the subscriptions page.
The Marine Quarterly has been nominated for the Maritime Foundation's Maritime Media Award
