The best quarterback in the NFL is Alex Smith says Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Doug Peterson.
Before you begin naming quarterbacks better then Smith do ask yourself what was Peterson supposed to say?
"Ultimately, every team has to have a quarterback," Pederson said in a recent interview, via the KC Star. "I think we have the best in the league."
The Chiefs paid handsomely for Smith giving up a second round pick and a conditional second or third round pick in 2014. Smith led San Francisco to the 2011 NFC Championship game and started the first nine games for the 49ers last year before suffering a concussion. He was subsequently replaced by Colin Kaepernick and remained on the bench when healthy.
"There are a lot of great ones," Pederson said, "but over time, Alex has proven he can get it done. He's a sharp guy, he brings a wealth of knowledge, he's experienced, he's a proven winner the last couple of years, and he needs a team to embrace him."

Before we get to anything else…
Mr. Spock is dead. Long live Mr. Spock!
That may be a rather illogical construct, but it just seemed the most appropriate thing to say. The fictional character the late Leonard Nimoy played often used "Live long and prosper" as his favored salutation, which is just a rephrasing of the basic sentiment, really. Nimoy will be missed by fans all over the world, who agree with President Obama's simple statement: "I loved Spock." We all did, which is why Spock will live on in many hearts. Long live Mr. Spock!
We're only going to briefly touch upon the illogical world of politics this week, as we bring you a very special edition of our Friday Talking Points. Mostly this is due to the fact that I tried (twice) to write about the fiasco in Congress over the Department of Homeland Security budget, but both times had to delete what I had written because events were moving so fast and so unexpectedly while I was busy writing. So, instead, I am throwing up my hands in frustration and will be following the late-night developments tonight, along with everyone else.
The real reason the introductory parts of this column are going to be extremely short, though, is that the end of this column is so insanely long. You have been warned. I don't think in all the years of diverging from this column's primary purpose that I've ever written such a historical timeline, but that is what we're offering up today, to mark the legalization of recreational marijuana in Washington D.C. this week. Because we felt honor needed to be given where it was due, in the midst of all the other celebrations.
If this attempt at telling a story bores you, or you otherwise would like to hear some rip-snortin' Democratic talking points, we would instead direct your attention to Senator Elizabeth Warren's most recent (and most excellent) viral video. That should satisfy any craving for hearing how to properly frame political issues, while tossing down a major gauntlet to the Republicans.
OK, let's get on with things by quickly running through an award or two, before we get to the main event.
Muriel Bowser, the mayor of Washington D.C., deserves at least an Honorable Mention, for standing strong in the face of threats of jail time from House Republicans, for allowing the will of the voters (70 percent of them) to become law this week. But we've got much more on marijuana in D.C. to come, so we'll just mention it briefly here.
The winner of the Most Impressive Democrat Of The Week this week is Chicago mayoral candidate Jesús "Chuy" Garcia, who forced Rahm Emanuel into a runoff despite being heavily outspent in a crowded field. Garcia got 34 percent of the vote to Emanuel's 45 percent, so Rahm may win the runoff anyway, but we can't help but wallow in a bit of schadenfreude over Rahm's problems (since we're still waiting for an apology for all the nasty things Rahm called lefty bloggers in years past).
In any case, Garcia's story is an impressive one so far, and maybe he's even got a shot at dethroning Rahm. For his success in embarrassing Emanuel alone, he is certainly worthy of this week's MIDOTW award.
[Congratulate Commissioner Jesús "Chuy" Garcia on his contact page, to let him know you appreciate his efforts.]
We have no award for Most Disappointing Democrat Of The Week this week, which is always a good sign.
If we've missed an obvious candidate, please let us know your thoughts, down in the comments.
Volume 337 (2/27/15)
The 1960s gave birth to the concept of the "sit-in," as well as other related protest events such as "teach-ins" or even "die-ins." But today we're going to focus on one particular event which isn't all that well known outside of the Washington Beltway: the "smoke-in." Specifically, the annual D.C. Smoke-In held every year on July Fourth.
Nowadays, with three states and D.C. having legalized recreational marijuana (just this week, Alaska and D.C. joined Colorado and Washington state), the concept of a public smoke-in seems almost retro and quaint. But those who participated over the last four decades were risking arrest and drastic punishment for what they bravely did — breaking the law in protest of the unjust nature of the marijuana laws. So while many District residents celebrated in various ways this week (while some others cluelessly went in search of the "pot parties"), we instead would like to salute those who put their own freedom on the line each year in a dramatic display of civil disobedience.
This has included fights over who got to use the prime location for the rally, and (most memorably) James Watt shooting himself in the foot by attempting to ban the Beach Boys from the Independence Day celebrations. Every participant in the decades-long history of the Smoke-In has their own stories to tell, of course. What follows is just a few of them, in honor of all who stood up for what they believed in. They all helped usher in the new freedom D.C. residents now enjoy, which is why we're dedicating today's column to the history of the event. Sit back and enjoy.

Nikolai Roerich Apartment Museum
History of St. Petersburg Museum
By Ciara Bartlam
The St. Petersburg Times
Published: April 18, 2012 (Issue # 1704)
Dylan Moran, best known for his role as the Irish alcoholic Bernard Black in the U.K. series Black Books, became the first native English-speaking comedian to perform stand-up in Russia last week.
The 1980s and 90s saw the birth of the rocker in Russia and a subsequent frenzy for foreign music: Now, in 2012, the way is being paved for the same flurry of excitement — this time for international stand-up comedy.
Moran's performances on Thursday and Saturday evenings at Chaplin Hall were part of a joint experiment organized by Igor Meerson and Anton Borisov of the hit Russian TV show Comedy Club together with Mick Perrin's U.K. agency Just for Laughs Live.
The general format of stand-up comedy in Russia is a 10-minute stint, with little or no prior experience, learning on the spot and frantically responding to the audience's jeering or applause. Stand-up has existed amongst the student community for a while now and is present at Open Mic nights held at Erarta Museum of Contemporary Art, but the program is still in its experimental phase. Accordingly, the organizers of Dylan Moran's shows felt that there was much to be gained from a dialogue between Russian comics and their Western counterparts.
It's not just the Russians who benefit. The opportunity to perform in another country is also a cultivating experience for Western comedians, according to Nick Handford, a representative from Just for Laughs Live.
"Russian stand-up is such a learning experience that it is immediately interesting for anybody coming here, and not only that: Hopefully this will open the door to bringing Russian comedians over to the U.K., to broaden our horizons even further," said Handford.
On the challenges of performing a routine that would be entertaining to a Russian audience, Moran said before his show Saturday: "I may have built up in my head the differences between East and West and thought, 'I must find out what works here' just because I don't know it; I don't know what people talk about and how they conduct themselves… I didn't want to go on and be talking to myself; I wanted to be talking to people about the reality of their lives."
Everything was covered in Thursday's show, from the city's controversial new law banning "homosexual propaganda" to imprisoned oil tycoon Mikhail Khodorkovsky.
Despite the rapturous applause that Moran received throughout the show, and even with the translation being delivered through earphones to the non-English-speaking portion of the audience, at times, the language barrier proved insurmountable. Having got tied up in explaining a hat box as a box of hats, he exclaimed, exasperated, "I don't know why I'm repeating myself thinking it will be any clearer!"
Linguistic difficulties are one thing, and only to be expected, but cultural differences are not as easily reconciled. Moran commented during his show that it was especially difficult to know when the audience found something funny because unlike in the West where people generally just laugh out loud, people in Russia tend to clap as a sign of approval. "Russian people obviously laugh through their hands. I wonder, do you also cry through your knees?" he joked.
In the end, the cultural differences proved too much for the courageous comedian and he ended, visibly disappointed, telling his audience that they seemed to have become "disconnected."
"For all of us, [the project] is a big thing because apparently nobody's done it before," Moran said later. "So, you know, we just wanted to see whether it would work. You can't have everything you want and it might not be the best gig, but that's not the point. The point is just: Can we make this work somehow? We're at that stage, you know, very early days in the lab."
The lab work is continuing, with more Western comedians soon to be confirmed as coming to grace the stages of St. Petersburg. It looks like international stand-up comedy is well and truly on its way to Russia.

I'm trying as hard as I can every game with the "good" or op champs and I'm pretty good with them, yet I'm 10 losses more than wins, 68 - 78 I believe. I don't believe I'm doing anything wrong most of the time, I rarely make any mistakes in the game besides champion select, sometimes I probably pick bad there. Anyone got anything that isn't obvious I might be missing, lol? edit: I play draft, forgot to say.
I'm at 49-50% win loss ratio. It's really tough to keep a positive ratio because of the random people you get. Sometimes blind can produce a really good win streak, sometimes it gets a really bad lose streak. The same goes for draft.
Dizzy Soul
Random pick is just that, random. You will get either a good team, or a bad team, or an even set of teams. In the end it all balances out to a 50/50 chance of winning, give or take a few extra percent. Random pick is like flipping a coin. Now if you had something like 30/70% over a couple dozen games, then you would have a problem.
Tokey I Tink
I think I'm like +15 or +20 win to loss at this point. But yeah I feel you, I was 50-50 for awhile and negative more than once. Something that really helps, is queuing with at least two other people. If you q with three you are guaranteed ( I believe ) to have the top three spots. This ensures you the bans, and the first three picks. It works even better if you all choose some champs that have synergy. Now that might not be available to you I realize, so the only other thing I can advise is to pick what your team needs, or a hard counter to the opposing teams best champ / opposing teams champ that you don't have a counter for yet.
Leblanc use is probably your main problem. I used her a lot when I started and I honestly do not feel she contributes enough against certain lineups. Unless you are up against squishy ranged dps, I would probably favor Kassadin over her (depends on the specific game but that rule seems to hold up for me). I think I basically phased her out in favor of nocturn (when the other team has a kog or vayne) and kass and that seemed to help my w/l.
I have like 30-40 more wins than losses in Dominion, and about 80 more wins than losses in SR. I use just about every champion in Dominion, even Taric. Be good and don't rely on your team mates to do ANYTHING. I only do complete solo queue. No duos, no premades at all, just solo queue. I do both blind and draft. In draft, I always ban Shaco and Poppy. I can deal with anyone else just fine.
Still positive cause i started during the beta testing lol (before all the op champs were picked). Now its all luck since the average lol player it seems can't figure out basic strategy
Hugs From Momma
Leadership matters. A lot. Ping enemies who are backdooring, ping top when it needs defense. Change bot lane if it's getting crushed. Suggest everyone focuses the same targets, remind people to defend under the towers and not get caught in the jungle. Also, get your side to group up before attacking a defended point. Rush their 1 defender with 3 and wipe him out.
I try to pick a champ that rounds out my team. If they're all AD melees, I might take Heimer, Gragas, or Maokai, to defend a point with ranged magical AOE. If everyone's picked mages, I might take an assassin or hard carry like Poppy who can get the job done with some sustained DPS. The couple of basic tactics I try and stick to are... Hold 3 points: your side of the map + top. Don't, DO NOT try to capture anything more than this. You'll get killed trying, and you'll lose top or bot for your trouble. The exception is if you've just aced them or something like that. All you need to do is hold one more point than the other team and you're winning. If you're defending a point, fight as close to it as possible. Sit on top of it. Kite enemies around it if they dive you. This lets the tower do its work. If you run off it to chase someone for a kill (you greedy-guts) you'll probably get 1v2'd and die. If your team isn't doing these things, try suggesting them. "Let's defend these 3, don't go for any more captures."

Placing Regenerators in Optical Networks to Satisfy Multiple Sets of Requests
Free registration required
Executive Summary
The placement of regenerators in optical networks has become an active area of research during the last years. Given a set of light-paths in a network G and a positive integer d, regenerators must be placed in such a way that in any light-path there are no more than d hops without meeting a regenerator. While most of the research has focused on heuristics and simulations, the first theoretical study of the problem has been recently provided, where the considered cost function is the number of locations in the network hosting regenerators.

Cold Related Emergencies
The temperature has dropped to record lows and it is vital that we protect ourselves and our loved ones from the dangerous cold weather. Anytime we leave our homes we must dress to prevent cold emergencies. From shopping for the holidays, running errands or just going to work, it is important to dress in layers and drink water to prevent dehydration.
Hypothermia is a medical emergency that occurs when your body loses heat faster than it can produce heat, causing a dangerously low body temperature. Hypothermia is life threatening and occurs in three stages.
Mild- (body temp 90-95 degrees) earliest stages of hypothermia characterized by slurred speech or having difficulty speaking, cool skin and excessive shivering.
Moderate- (85-90 degrees) as body temperature drops, victims become dazed. Shivering will stop at about 89.0 degrees and will be replaced with muscular rigidity, followed shortly by the loss of voluntary movement.
Severe- (less than 78 degrees) victims become unresponsive with irregular heartbeat and cardiac arrest.
Safety Tips:
- Limit your exposure. If you must go out do so during mid day when the sun is the strongest and the temperature at it's highest. Check on elderly neighbors and relatives.
- Wear several layers of clothing- including a waterproof and or wind proof outermost layer. Also always wear a hat and gloves. Our head is a great source of heat loss for our body (30-40%). Ears and fingertips as well as noses are extremely susceptible to frost nip and frost bite.
- Avoid Alcoholic beverages. Contrary to popular belief alcohol does not warm the body. In fact it has an opposite effect by causing vasodilation and decreasing the body's natural insulating properties. It also suppresses shivering and impairs judgment.
Who is most susceptible?
Very old- May be unaware of their limitations. Due to limited mobility may be forced to spend increased amount of time exposed to the cold weather due to slow movement.
Very young- Thermo-regulatory system is still immature. Babies rely on adults for warmth. If possible, stay home. If you must go out, dress the baby in layers and cover the head, hands and feet.
Pets- Pets rely on their owners for warmth. Bring pets indoors at night to protect from the frigid temperatures. During the day, use fresh hay and/or blankets in the dog house to keep the pets protected.

DEFINITION of 'General And Administrative Leverage'
A variable within a cost benefit analysis of an acquisition where the potential reduction in overall general and administrative expenses of the combined company are considered. Through synergies and cost-saving programs, the general and administrative costs of the combined company often will be considerably less than the sum of the general and administrative costs of the two independent companies. The more the potential savings, the more attractive the acquisition becomes, when all else is equal.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'General And Administrative Leverage'
When valuing an acquisition it is essential that a company accurately value the benefit of a target company's general and administrative leverage. One of the reasons, a company would want to acquire another company is the economies of scale that can be achieved. Subsequently, if the cost savings that have been identified from general and administrative leverage are overestimated, the acquiring company may be worse off after the acquisition. But it is important to note that this is only one aspect of the overall analysis of a potential acquisition.

Enthusiastic customer response to online grocery shopping in San Diego is encouraging Albertson's Inc. to make the service available throughout Southern California.
Now that the dot-com frenzy has faded some merchants are proving out concepts that failed only because they didn't have the proper management or financial controls. Latest case in point: online grocery shopping.
Albertson's Inc. last month undertook a major expansion of online grocery shopping from San Diego to Los Angeles, Orange and Riverside counties. The expansion is an indication that online grocery shopping retains tremendous appeal to consumers. "We had a very soft roll out in San Diego in October and it has absolutely taken off since then," says Fred Schuit, senior vice president of operations of Albertson's Southern California Division. "That spurred us on."
In the new three-county expansion area, customers can pick up their orders at 200 stores or have them delivered. In San Diego, customers can pick up orders at 60 stores. Online orders placed by 10 a.m. will be available for pick-up after 5 p.m. the same day; orders placed by midnight will be delivered or available for pick up the next day. Albertson's charges $9.95 for delivery and $5.95 for pick up. "The vast majority of customers want the orders delivered," Schuit says.
Special requests
Albertson's fulfills all orders, even those to be picked up, at one of 15 centrally located stores that are larger and have more backroom area than the average store. Orders to be picked up are delivered from the fulfillment store to the pick-up store. Boise, Idaho-based Albertson's has been testing online grocery shopping in Seattle since 1999. It started that test by fulfilling pick-up orders at individual stores but found the operation moved more efficiently if it fulfilled orders from a central point and delivered to the store, Schuit says.
Customers can choose from 16,000 products online vs. 45,000 in a store. But the service also has an area where customers can make special requests if they know there is something in the store that they want but they can't find online. Albertson's uses that information to fill the request and as a way of learning what customers want online. The fill rate on items has been nearly 100%, Schuit says. Order pickers will go to another store to get an item if the fulfilling store is out of it. Online orders have gone as high as $400.
Schuit says store pickers are finicky about fulfilling orders, especially on fresh products. "We have trained all the personal shoppers to pick the best and highest quality items," he says. "We know that if we don't do that, it'll be the last time that customer shops online with us." Albertson's also allows customers to specify their desires, offering, for instance, bananas that are green, ripe or very ripe.
The advantage that supermarket chains bring to online shopping is that they are leveraging their infrastructure. Previous efforts such as the Webvan Group Inc.'s failed, analysts say, because they built and stocked distribution centers from scratch at the same time they were developing the market. It became the classic chicken-and-egg routine-which comes first, the customers or the fulfillment operation? The investment needed to develop both simultaneously just got out of hand, analysts say. "Our advantage is that we have a bricks-and-mortar network," Schuit says.
Marketing vehicles
Albertson's is marketing the online shopping service with newspaper and TV ads, direct mail, store signs and on 400 billboards. In addition, it considers its fleet of 45 delivery trucks part of the marketing effort. "They're all over the place," Schuit says.
Supermarkets are extremely competitive and always looking for ways to move market share through new services. Online grocery shopping may be one of those ways. Stater Bros. supermarkets, which has been offering home shopping since 1999, claims that 96% of its online shoppers are incremental to Stater Bros., the No. 4 supermarket chain in Southern California. And while Albertson's says it's too early to know if its online efforts are moving market share, "We wouldn't be in this unless we thought we could," says David Simonson, president of Albertson's Southern California Division. "A percentage of our online customers have probably been shopping at Albertson's, but a large number have been shopping with our competitors."
The California program is part of a corporate initiative, so it's certain that success there will echo throughout Albertson's 2,400 stores in 33 states. But next up for expansion is the rest of Southern California and then Las Vegas, which also is in Simonson's division. "I wouldn't be surprised to see some of the other divisions doing this soon," Simonson adds. "We are very, very pleased with the overall results."

Chief of Staff Dean Rice worked beside some big names on his way to Knox
Age: 41
Job: Knox County Mayor's Office chief of staff
Education: Degree in speech communication from University of Tennessee
Family: Wife Laura of 19 years; twin daughters Rachel and Sarah, 7.
Hobbies: Photography
Honors: 2006 Statesman of the Year awarded by the Tennessee Republican Party; Phi Eta Sigma's Excellence in Teaching Award (2004); James I. Brown Award for Research Excellence, International Listening Association (1994).
Memberships and offices held: Manager, Duncan for Congress 2006; UT Chancellor's Associates; UT College of Arts and Sciences Board of Visitors; East Tennessee Economic Council Board of Directors; lecturer, UT School of Communication Studies; American Council of Young Political Leaders.
He's stood at the forefront of Republican politics for quite some time.
Yet he's not that well-known.
He's worked with top national leaders and helped run two presidential campaigns.
Yet he's still hard to pick out in a lineup.
He likes it that way. He's a behind-the-scenes kind of guy.
He stays out of the spotlight and keeps his bosses and their goals in it.
That, however, is about to change.
Because Dean Rice is the new county administration's chief of staff. And he's the new county mayor's right-hand man. His job - in his own words - is to "keep the train rolling" and to help carry out the new leadership's vision.
But, as is characteristic of the 41-year-old Knoxville native, he's not going to take credit.
"No, I'm not that pivotal," Rice said. "The only pivotal person in this administration is the mayor."
That person, however, disagrees.
"No, he's very important," said Mayor Tim Burchett, who immediately appointed Rice to the post after winning the county general election in August. "He won't tell me what I want to hear, but what I need to hear. I want people around me who'll tell me if we're messing up. I'm responsible for the whole county, and the last thing I need is to damage it further by coming up with some bone-headed idea."
Those who have worked closely with Rice - and there are some big names - said Burchett picked the right person.
Rice is the guy in the background who helps you succeed, they said. Rice is the guy you call when you want to know the pulse of the community. And Rice is the guy you bounce your ideas off when you need crucial information.
No, he hasn't always been on the winning campaign side. But, more often than not, he was.
And that experience - along with a University of Tennessee speech communications degree - is what should help Burchett move the county forward, they said.
"(He) brings a fresh perspective and common sense approach to the mayor's office," said former U.S. Sen. Fred Thompson, who gave Rice his first job out of college in 1994 when Thompson initially ran for office. "His mature managerial skills will be a big asset for Mayor Burchett. I always admired Dean for his calm and good judgment in all situations. And I was always proud to have him represent me because he is a man of integrity who everyone respects."
U.S. Rep. John J. Duncan Jr., who said he's never met anyone who didn't like Rice, agreed.
"He has the absolute highest integrity - any good adjective anyone can think of would fit him," said Duncan, who also worked closely with Rice. "I've even teased him a couple of times when I see him and Tim Burchett together. I said, 'There's the most powerful man in Knox County.' Then I look at Tim and say, 'There's the second-most powerful man.' "
Again, Rice won't take any credit for any success. He was there to learn, he said. The elected folks drove the actual ideas.
Still, he contributed.
"I know I can help from behind the scenes, working with individuals who had issues with the government - those who were up against the wall," he said.
Learning Curve
Rice's political ambitions were inadvertently etched in his mind at age 5.
His grandfather, a staunch Democrat, one day pointed to the black-and-white TV and said "history is being made." It was the Watergate hearings, and Rice understood little at the time. But the suits, ties and Thompson, the then-Senate Watergate Committee's chief minority counsel, stuck out.
"I always thought he'd be a tremendous person to work around - to see that style of leadership," said Rice, the middle of three children whose father is a retired accountant and mother a hostess at Cedar Springs Church.
And he would see it. Up close. Decades later.
Rice, one of the first students and a graduate of Christian Academy of Knoxville, met his wife, Laura, while attending UT and bagging groceries at Kroger. After college he went to work for Thompson's U.S. Senate run. Then, he joined Thompson's federal staff, overseeing the new senator's Knoxville office as his field representative for East Tennessee.
"I interviewed 36 people, and Dean was the last guy I talked to," said Tom Daffron, who hired Rice for the spot and would later work with him on Elizabeth Dole's presidential campaign before becoming chief operating officer for Washington, D.C.-based Jefferson Consulting Group. "He understands the good, the bad and the ugly, and he knows how to play the game, but he does it honorably. He's a self-effacing guy. Dean takes less credit than he's entitled."
Thompson was re-elected in 1996, and Rice later served on Capitol Hill as his legislative assistant on energy issues, among others. He left to serve as the Southern regional director of Dole's 2000 presidential campaign; then followed that with stints as senior legislative assistant for Duncan and the Washington-based national field director for the Christian Coalition of America. He also worked on Duncan's 2006 congressional re-election bid and co-founded Pratt, Pratt & Rice, a political advisory firm in Nashville.
"He's someone who gets along with everyone, and I think that baffles people sometimes - especially because we worked together," said James Pratt, a one-time aide to former Democratic U.S. Sen. James Sasser.
By 2007, Rice was back on the road - possibly for the last time - working on Thompson's unsuccessful presidential campaign. He said he wouldn't "change my decision to help," but the time away from his family took its toll.
He wasn't there to celebrate his twin daughters' fifth birthday.
"I had to phone them," he said. "It was tough."
Burchett's run
Now Rice is back in Knox County, presumably for good. He grew up here, he "wants to grow old here."
And he wants to make a difference, he said.
"I know this sounds canned, … but I want to be able to look back … and say I helped," said Rice, who also teaches a communications class at UT and donates the earnings to a scholarship program. "I know it sounds idealistic, but it's the truth."
And that's why he served as Burchett's campaign manager in the spring Republican primary when the then-state senator trounced former Sheriff Tim Hutchison and this summer when he handily defeated Ezra Maize in the general election.
"Washington has its own excitement and adrenalin, but when you talk about politics on the local level - it's the people there going into office that affect everyday life," said Rice, who earns an annual salary of $142,000 - less than the last administration's chief of staff.
Burchett and Rice met in the mid-1990s when Burchett was a state representative. The two occasionally crossed paths over the next decade or so, and during a UT event last year when Burchett mentioned contemplating a run for the mayor's post, Rice said he wanted to help.
"(Burchett) has always been one of those straight shooters - he doesn't have a bone of pretense," Rice said. "He won't change just because of the political winds or to score points. I liked that."
Rice said he saw his opportunity to make a difference locally - helping Burchett take office.
Burchett, too, said he saw an opportunity to "take us to the next level" when he hired Rice.
"Even without his credentials, I trust him, plain and simple," Burchett said. "He's logical and honest. He's grounded. … I knew if I won I'd hire him. … After I spent just a little time with him, I knew it in my heart."
The two now talk "10 to 12 times a day," the mayor said, carrying out ideas, like refinancing bonds and slashing expense travels for county directors.
Their goals are guided by three principles: whether the idea has a positive impact on services, whether it creates efficiencies and whether it saves money.
In the meantime, Rice is getting comfortable with his new job, meeting with the public, department heads and city officials to discuss concerns and find opportunities to better services.
"I think my days are spent meeting with three more people than I have time to, and then forcing the time to act on what I learn when I do meet with them," he said. "But it's what I have to do to make sure Tim succeeds."

#Celticstalk: No Pierce, KG, Bass or Darko tonight for the #Celtics.24 minutes ago via TweetDeckReplyRetweetFavorite@SherrodbCSNA. Sherrod BlakelyBass suffered a bruised knee Thursday night and Pierce twisted his ankle, but neither injuries are expected to be serious.I kinda wish Doc would play the regulars both tonight and tomorrow. I know the Celtics looked good (check that — great) Thursday, but they've played exactly one complete game all preseason. Doc has 2.7 million new lineups with which to experiment, and the Celtics hadn't looked fully comfortable or cohesive until Thursday night — which, again, was just one game.I know the Celtics have a back-to-back today and tomorrow and Doc doesn't want his veterans to play a preseason back-to-back. That's understandable. But after tomorrow, the Celtics have eight days of rest and practice to prepare for the Miami Heat on opening night. With so much time off, chemistry, in my eyes, is more important than rest at this stage. But maybe I'm just a blabbering moron.

Pawns in the Great Game...
The Story:
Belle Reve is in shambles. Amanda Waller is stuck inside the prison and has a last ditch plan to free herself. However, she doesn't realize the Thinker has plans of his own.
The Good:
This issue is unpredictable in a very good way. Amanda Waller and the Thinker have both assembled teams to meet their goals and these two teams are about to collide in an explosive way. We also see agendas for James Gordon and King Shark beginning to take shape. This book features a wide variety of characters but Matt Kindt does a great job of giving them all a chance to shine.
Without giving away spoilers, and obviously based on the cover, this series is being injected with some new blood in the form of these new additions. They are all pretty interesting and I can't wait to find out what their motivations are here. The best surprise of the book was the "secret weapon" in question and it turned out to be one of my favorite new 52 characters.
The art by Patrick Zircher is his usual great work and never fails to disappoint.
The Bad:
I have to wait a month until the next issue!
The Score:
Matt Kindt has this book moving in the right direction and its a beautiful thing. His writing and Zircher's art make for a great creative team. I can't wait for the next issue.

So I haven't been on this forum for very long but a lot of members seem quite young, like under 20. Yes, I am jealous of your youth, but I wonder if many of you are more like mid to late 20's? Is it strange for a 26 yr old girl to like anime?

thanks, feel a little bit better. Going to Avcon in July and don't wanna be like 10 yrs older than everyone. Since I have no anime loving friends I really don't know what kind of ppl are into it...
I haven't really grown out of anime, I'd say the one that changed is anime. I don't like the cliches and fan service, yet it seems to be becoming more prominent.
Yes, you are old 0.0
I'm just kidding. My sister is older than you (27.. For some reason that sounded way older that you until I wrote it), and she's still an anime fan. Though she doesn't go to Cons... Then again where she moved, there are no Cons.

You're never to odd to watch anime and enjoy life.
We need to say goodbye to Pedo Bear tho..
AAAAH!!! Stop saying such horrible things!!

*jumps in into the discussion*
I think that's because many people don't open talk about their interest in anime.
Waiting for
Season four of Sherlock
The new Hobbit movie
Season five of Game of Thrones
New episodes of Downton Abbey
On the other hand, there may be people who enjoy a given series, or even a few, but don't enjoy the whole medium.
I know I fall into that category.
Besides, if anybody ever tells you you're too old to be a fan of something, just picture the average paunchy sports fan, and the absurdity of the assertion will become apparent. (They also have no chance of living in that world, indulge in a sort of fanfiction (fantasy leagues, etc.), dress up like their favorite characters, dress their children like their favorite characters, make disparaging fanboy-esque remarks about other groups they don't like, and so on.)
C'mon, man! SpongeBob is chock full of parental bonuses, which are just as fun for those who have no children. References to the temperance movement, "The Telltale Heart", real estate scams, recurring innuendos that Spongebob and Patrick are a gay couple, etc. That show is awesome!Originally Posted by Jacon's Ladder

Even my mom watches anime.
I'm 23, still enjoying anime. My brother's 28 and the still a fan. My dad's 52, and has been watching since the days of Astro Boy, and Gigantor when they were black and white, and still loves it.
If you enjoy it, don't stop. ^.^
Of course you're not too old to watch anime! XD There's animes out there for practically all age groups anyways. Heck, I adore the Magic Knight Rayearth series (known about it since August, started watching it last night) and that series is aimed at pre-teen girls.
Oh, Hi-deeki, imagine... your kind not eating raw fish! ^_^
I'm 21 and still watch anime, although not as much as before college. Still gonna continue to watch though.
No power in the 'verse can stop me...
You're old....
And I'm only saying that because I find people who whine about thinking they are too old for something annoying. It's like a cry for attention. You're on an anime forum, have common sense, not a single person [except probably me since I don't give a darn] is going to tell you you're too old to be interested in a common interest we all share. NOT ONLY THAT, but you're 26... 20's and 30's are still young. It's not till you start hitting the 40's and above that you're even remotely old. So once again another cry for attention and what were you expecting from this.
Suck your moping and groping about your age up. I don't want to hear "am I old" from anyone unless they require a waker, a hearing aid, are super wrinkly and have white hair. [Far from the appearance for a mere 26 year old]
Besides have you even seen the demographic for the fan base of My Little Pony?! Your argument is invalid old fart.

I really don't mind what old people like to do.. I saw this old lady at MegaCon with purple died hair, you can still see her roots were kind of grey, and they were in high pigtails on both sides of her head... She sorta looked like that gothic girl from NCIS or whatever.. I actually thought it was cute for her to continue to pursue her interest let alone in public.. As long as your interest are not breaking any laws, people can like what they like regardless of age. At least in my book they can.

Project done for Drawing I |
Project done for Drawing I |
There once was a friend named...In light of recent events, I'd like to share a story...
The following is my account of things as I remeber them, so please forgive me if I miss a few details. Be prepared, this is not a short read.............................
His name, as I once knew it, was SakuraYoshi22.
He joined YoshiArt Forums as anyother member. He joined, posted stuff, and was just like any other member at the time.
Then he PM'd the admin of YAF, inquiring about Yoshiart.com's Galleries, and how he, an aspiring artist, could obtain one.
I explained to him the simple rules at the time. He needed to be a member for at least a month, and get to the rank of "Experienced Yoshi", equal to the amount of 100 posts. This was to show that he wanted to remain at YAF, at least to become an artist.
So, a month passed, he got the neccessary posts to be considered for a Gallery, which also comes with the Yellow member rank of "Yoshi Artist", a title given to the me
It Gets Better - My experience coming out as a gayHey everyone...I do not know if you have seen my twitter just now, but I did post three tweets addressing the recent bullying issues that teens and young adults have been facing Just a forewarning...this isn't going to be a journal for everyone as I will be explaining my experience and stuff. Hell I may even shed a tear or two xD;;
Ok so back in 2004 was when I first started questioning my feelings and how I was supposed to act a certain way to be accepted in society. It made me feel...different, retarded, stupid, and ashamed to even bare the thought that "I am a gay man". It all began with a friend of mine that I used to have. He came from Tennessee to Long Island...and he was the first crush that I ever had. Yes...I was aware that I was in love with him, but I was 14 at the time...I wanted to beat the living shit out of myself for even having to experience sexual tension between anyone. I would act flirtatious with this individual, yet put on this tough
I am an artist, student, and most importantly, a person you should get to know. When I was about fifteen years of age when I first started my self discovery as an artist, and now, I know who I really am and what I am truly capable of. I did not always know much about Adobe, or any programs for that matter. I practiced very hard to what I got myself to this day. My goal is to appreciate the life and color that art gives off, so that way, everyone can enjoy looking at my works. I hope you enjoy viewing this profile. |

The door boot seal was old and mildued Igno F. • Scotts Valley, CA • July 27, 2014 Appliance: Whirlpool Automatic Washer WFW8400TW03 My Repair & Advice I followed the very well made repair video for this particular part. The total time it took for the repair was under 20 minutes. But I have a suggestion for the repair video and that is to emphasize that when reinstalling boot. Have the tachnician point out that there are drain holes in the boot that need to be situated and reattached toward the bottom of the washer chassis. Unfortunately I had to redue and double the repair time because the wash water would not drain properly during wash cycle and I had to duplicate my efforts to have thing work right. Was this review helpful to you?
Hole in door boot seal John W. • Waunakee, WI • October 19, 2014 My Repair & Advice Followed the video instructions, made it easy. It was challenging to get the boot to connect to the washer tub, took a little time and patience. Thanks to the post who reminded me to make sure the holes in the boot seal needed to be at the bottom, my model doesn't have the tube going into the seal from the soap dish. Was this review helpful to you?
Front load washer leaking from door Robert S. • Agoura, CA • December 30, 2014 My Repair & Advice Followed your video instructions. It was invaluable. The toughest part was getting the seal on the back of the drum. Your technician made it look very easy. Once that was on, the rest was pretty easy. The control panel on my Whirlpool Duet washer had a holding screw at the bottom center of it. It wasn't shown in the video, but it was easy to figure out. If you are changing the boot, change the clamp as well. Was this review helpful to you?

Is This Ashley Madison Advertisement Too Raunchy For Television? (Video)0
56diggsdigg31ShareMany of us can't wait to park ourselves in front of a television on February 6 to watch the Super Bowl. Unfortunately, Ashley Madison will not be joining us. A commercial advertising the online adultery service was recently rejected by Fox (the station televising the event), who claim that it does not meet their standards and practices. Whether that has anything to do with the service Ashley Madison offers, or the fact that porn star Savanna Samson is featured in the ad is anyone's guess, but company founder Noel Biderman believes the latter to be the cause for their rejection.
"Now that so many adult film stars, including Jenna Jameson and Sasha Gray, have crossed over into the mainstream, it's disappointing that the NFL continues to discriminate against them," Biderman said. [Toronto Sun]
If that is in fact that case, I can't help but wonder what Fox and the NFL intends to do about the possibility of accused rapist Ben Roethlisberger starting at quarterback in the big game, or internet foot fetish star Rex Ryan coaching in it. Thankfully, they will not have to worry about a game that features dog-killer Michael Vick. Now that could have been a huge public relations catastrophe

Zara April Lookbook 2013
A New Batch of Floral Prints to Covet, Thanks to Zara's April Lookbook
Zara's April lookbook is rife with the kind of pieces that perfectly capture Spring's breezier sensibility. That's not to say there aren't more polished styling counterparts — because there are — but if we're to forecast the month ahead according to Zara, it's looking like a laid-back affair. The floral prints, which are reminiscent of scenes stolen right off of a vintage china plate, take shape on cap-sleeved shifts, shorts sets, relaxed blouses, and pencil skirts. The quintessential blazer comes oversized with bold buttons, in a soft pastel blue tuxedo iteration, and cut in a longer double-breasted silhouette. And where there's silky texture, there's a flowing red jumpsuit, a sportier colorblocked maxi dress, and palazzo trousers to indulge in. Zara's latest is certainly something to be inspired by, and lucky for us, it's also within our wallet's reach. See the complete lookbook here.
