First White House TV Address Delivered 64 Years Ago
Melissa Block and Guy Raz tell us about this day in history 64 years ago when then-President Harry S Truman gave the nation's first televised address from the White House.
Copyright © 2011 NPR. For personal, noncommercial use only. See Terms of Use. For other uses, prior permission required.
Sixty-four years ago today, then President Harry S. Truman gave the first ever televised address from the White House. The speech wasn't about creating jobs or rebuilding the nation after the Second World War. No. It was about food.
PRESIDENT HARRY S. TRUMAN: My fellow citizens, the food saving program, which has just been presented to you, has my wholehearted support. I am confident that it will have the support of every American.
On this day back in 1947, President Truman urged people to eat less, not for health reasons, but because our allies across the Atlantic were hungry.
TRUMAN: The nations of Western Europe will soon be scraping the bottom of the food barrel. They cannot get through the coming winter and spring without help, generous help from the United States and from other countries which have food to spare.
RAZ: The president proposed a few simple rules people could follow at home. One, no meat on Tuesdays. Two, no poultry or eggs on Thursdays and...
TRUMAN: Three, save a slice of bread every day. Four, public eating places will serve bread and butter only on request.
BLOCK: President Truman went on to say that overeating and wastefulness would contribute to inflation here and scarcity abroad so that Europe's battle and ours were one in the same.
The effort was, of course, voluntary, but President Truman wasn't afraid to lay on a little guilt.
TRUMAN: We believe that self-control is the best control. From now on, we shall be testing at every meal the degree to which each of us is willing to exercise self-control for the good of all.
RAZ: You're listening to ALL THINGS CONSIDERED, from NPR News.

In his "Stories I'd like to see" column, journalist and entrepreneur Steven Brill spotlights topics that, in his opinion, have received insufficient media attention. This article was originally published on Reuters.com.
1. The Rutgers basketball coach scandal as a window on NCAA sports:
Some of the stories about the firing of Rutgers basketball coach Michael Rice after a video of him abusing his players in practice was aired on ESPN referred to a 50-page report the university commissioned from an outside lawyer after the videos were first brought to school administrators' attention. It's this report that provided the rationale for the school initially to suspend and fine Rice but not dismiss him.
For reporters and columnists (like The New York Times's Joe Nocera) who have been highlighting how the NCAA has become a profit machine that abuses its unpaid players, the report is worth diving into. It presents an amazingly candid, and grim, view of college athletics, and it would be great to get university presidents far and wide on the record commenting about it.
The report — written by John P. Lacey, the outside lawyer whose firm conducted the investigation — describes the offensive scenes shown on the videos and declares that it is "not acceptable for any coach at any time in a university setting to refer to players using curse words accompanied by slang and derogatory references to homosexuals such as "fags" or "faggots," etc." So far, so good. But here's how the report, whose recommendations the Rutgers administration fully accepted, rationalized not jettisoning Rice:
Based on the credible information provided to us, we find that many of the actions of Coach Rice, while sometimes unorthodox, politically incorrect or very aggressive, were within the bounds of proper conduct and training methods in the context of preparing for the extraordinary physical and mental challenges that players would regularly face during NCAA Division I basketball games. This permissible training includes screaming at players, cursing, using other foul and distasteful language and expressing frustration and even anger at times. It also includes physical contact during drills and unorthodox training methods to simulate the dramatic and unexpected events that occur during actual games.
The lawyer's report also contains some fun illustrations of the legal gymnastics lawyers put themselves through at the sacrifice of common sense in the name of political correctness. One example: it seems not to be "harassment" to call someone a "faggot" if you don't know he's gay, because in that case you're not knowingly harassing someone in a "protected class."
2. Understanding those jobs numbers:
Friday's release of March's lower-than-expected new jobs number, accompanied by significant upward revisions in the previously reported tallies for January and February, cries out for a story explaining exactly how the closely-watched numbers are counted (and revised later).
In this space a year ago, I tipped my hat to a terrific Washington Post feature about how the staff at the Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics takes elaborate pains to keep the market-moving information secret until its public release at 8:30 on the morning of the first Friday of each month. But the piece did not spend much space nailing down exactly how the jobs survey is done, what its weaknesses and strengths are, and what its track record is vis-a-vis subsequent revisions — an especially pertinent question in light of last Friday's significant upward adjustments for the prior two months.
I'd even like to know who gets surveyed and how, perhaps by seeing or reading an account from a reporter who watches the BLS people conduct the surveys.
3. Trayvon, Inc?
There were news reports last week that the parents of Trayvon Martin, the Florida teen killed by a neighborhood watch volunteer last year, settled a lawsuit, perhaps for as much as $1 million, that they brought against the homeowners association at the housing complex where their son was shot.
A story about the lawsuit might shed light on how highly-publicized tragedies in America almost always result in settlements like this no matter who, if anyone, is at fault or what the actual legal claim for damages would be. (After all, parents typically can't claim lost earnings for a deceased child.)
This in turn suggests a broader story for which, sad to say, there is now a lot of fresh material: It would zero in on the curious economics of tragedies like this, focusing on Americans' apparent impulse to send money to people they sympathize with even if they don't need the money for anything related to the tragedy and it won't alleviate their pain.
We saw it with the more than $15 million sent to the families of the Newtown, CT, children — and you can see it here at a website called "JusticeTM," which solicits contributions for the "Trayvon Martin Foundation." The purpose of that foundation, its website says, is to "pursue justice on behalf of Trayvon Benjamin Martin."
What does that mean? The foundation's required annual filing with the IRS isn't due yet and won't be publicly available for at least a year, but the website accepts donation by smart phone of as little as $10. What's the money used for and how much has been raised?
4. Covering the AUVSI:
What's the AUVSI? It's the Association of Unmanned Vehicle Systems International. In other words, it's the drone lobby. And if you think it's got to be a new organization because drones have only recently become a big deal, think again. It was founded, according to its website, in 1978, although it went international, adding the "I," in 1996. According to the website, AUVSI lobbies on issues from "air space" to "frequency spectrum." Its "Diamond," "Platinum," "Gold," and "Silver" level members include corporations from Boeing to Raytheon to GE to Lockheed Martin to companies you've never heard of but that sound pretty out there — such as Blue Fin Robotics, whose website says it makes "autonomous underwater vehicles."
Any news organization looking for a window into this hot industry and all the regulatory, technical and policy issues associated with it, should drop in on the folks at AUVSI and see what they do all day.

Title: | PSEUDOSPECTRAL SOLUTION OF THE TWO-DIMENSIONAL NAVIER{STOKES EQUATIONS IN A DISK |
Author: | Coutsias, Evangelos A.; Torres, David J. |
Subject: | spectral methods coordinate singularity parallel |
Abstract: | An efficient and accurate algorithm for solving the two-dimensional (2D) incompressible Navier-Stokes equations on a disk with no-slip boundary conditions is described. The vorticity stream function formulation of these equations is used, and spatially the vorticity and stream functions are expressed as Fourier-Chebyshev expansions. The Poisson and Helmholtz equations which arise from the implicit-explicit time marching scheme are solved as banded systems using a postconditioned spectral tau-method. The polar coordinate singularity is handled by expanding fields radially over the entire diameter using a parity modified Chebyshev series and building partial regularity into the vorticity. The no-slip boundary condition is enforced by transferring one of the two boundary conditions imposed on the stream function onto the vorticity via a solvability constraint. Significant gains in run times were realized by parallelizing the code in message passage interface (MPI). |

We all Love them. Bling ! I bought 2. They look even better in person. The crystals and shade are so GLAM when lit and off. Shade is shiny silver. Paid $*** each which is a great price for what I received. Easy to put together. Give it 10 min per lamp. Not only a great light source but also a classy decoration to the room. First time I bought on Overstock. The lamps came in a few days.

Gorgeous Floor Lamp! We recently have renovated our living room and were looking for lighting that would add a pop to a modern decor ! We have a black leather couch, grey club chairs and a cool purple chair from overstock! The lamp looks elegant yet modern ! It was easy to assemble and the lighting adds a nice contrast to our park avenue grey walls! I wish they had matching table lamps!

Simply Stunning This lamp is an eye catcher and great conversation piece. Not only that but its quality is outstanding. The lamp is very heavy, yet very easy to put together AND they give you the bulbs so that you can use it RIGHT AWAY. The picture does not do this lamp ANY justice. You have got to purchase it and see it for your self. Only drawback was I purchased right before it was discounted :0( not too happy about that, but it is well worth the price.

Classy Chic My second favorite lamp I've purchased from Overstock, and one I cherish every night in the living room. I bought this when I was trying to dress up my living room and add additional lighting. A few things I was caught off-guard about: 1. Some of the dangling crystals are an off-white glaze with a spiral pattern. At first I wasn't sure if I liked them, but they add dimension and variety to the other crystal strands. 2. The shade is silver, with a metallic thread finish. I was expecting white, but love the silver. It accents my grey velvet sofa. 3. It has a foot pedal to turn it on and off, so you need access to the cord to operate the lamp. 4. It takes special, dainty lightbulbs Everyone loves this lamp when they walk into the room. It's a cheery, chic addition.

pictures don't do it justice I bought two of these lamps for our formal living room. Wasn't sure if I was going to like them because of the odd shaped glass crystals in the picture. I totally feel in love when they arrived. They lamps are so sparkly and modern. The shade is a pretty metallic silver and the odd crystals look like blown glass and have a nice subtle golden color to them to warm up the silver and chrome.

Stylish and Neutral I love this lamp for its style and color. I assume the quality can be higher, the shaft of the lamp leans slightly--not sure if this is common in taller lamps. The grey lamp shade is not shiny, it's neutral; the crystals and chrome provide all the style.

Best Floor Lamp for the Bedroom
When you need extra light in your bedroom, why not buy a stylish floor lamp? Whether you want to add a stunning torchiere floor lamp to an empty corner or read in bed more easily with a swing-arm floor lamp, you're sure to find the right lighting with the following suggestions. Read on to find the best floor lamp for your bedroom.
Best Floor Lamps for Reading
When you have the right floor lamps for reading, it's easy to curl up with your favorite book for a few hours. Why not create this relaxing atmosphere throughout your home? Whether you prefer adjustable floor lamps you can place in your living room or an arch floor lamp to tuck behind your bed, here's how to find the perfect floor reading lamps for your space.
How to Choose a Pole Floor Lamp
Lighting adds so much to a living space. If the lighting in your home is missing something, think about adding floor lamps to your lighting design. Pole floor lamp lighting is ideal for living rooms, dens, bedrooms and home offices because it provides task lighting as well as ambient lighting. Floor lamps are also convenient because they take up a minimal amount of space and add a sleek design element that can be integrated into almost any room. Pole floor lamps come in colors and finishes that fit with any home decor.
How to Buy a Lampshade
Lamps are more than just functional pieces; they also contribute to the decor of a room. Their sizes vary, from table lamps to floor lamps, and a large variety of styles are available to suit any home decor. Lampshades are usually the focal point of lamps. They complement the base of the lamp, and they also hide the bulb and diffuse the light. To achieve the best effect with a lampshade, simplicity is the key. Ornate floor and table lamps are best complemented by simple lampshades, while a simple table or floor lamp can support a more decorative lampshade.
How to Create a Reading Nook with Floor Lamps
Although reading in bed is convenient, scientific studies show that that having a separate place to get lost in a good book can actually help you sleep better. Using floor lamps, a little creativity, and these steps, you can create a cozy reading nook that is set apart from the rest of your home and can be used as an area to unwind.
How to Measure Lampshades
While deciding to redecorate a room, the idea may start small -- a fresh coat of paint, an accent chair to warm up a bare corner or new pictures to hang on the wall. Somewhere along the line, you notice that you need new lamp shades. Or maybe you find the perfect table lamps but aren't too crazy about the shades. It is quite easy to just change out lamp shades. Before running off on a quest to find the perfect new shades for your table lamps and floor lamps, ensure that they will fit by measuring your current lamp shades.
Curtains Buying Guide
Add style and color to any room with the right window treatments. Curtains help define the theme of space and add a finishing touch to the overall decor. Are you staring at a blank room, wondering where to start? Select your curtains, and then pull colors and patterns from them for your rugs, pillows, furniture, lamps, art, and accents. Curtains also provide a simple and affordable way to finish or update a room. This guide is the perfect place to start when you're looking for inspiration and tips on window treatment selection and installation.
How to Decorate Your Dining Room with Round Area Rugs
Add color and warmth to your dining room by laying area rugs atop hardwood or tiled floors. Round area rugs are a perfect fit for dining rooms with circular tables. Whether it's the main dining table, a decorative accessory table or simply a floor lamp with a spherical lamp shade, round area rugs are the perfect accent piece. They can also be used to freshen the look of worn or stained carpet in a well-used dining room.
Curtains and Window Treatments Fact Sheet
An easy way to warm up any room is to add a decorative touch to the windows. You might appreciate the sophistication that the perfect bamboo shades add to your home, or perhaps you prefer the cozy comfort of thick chenille curtains. Regardless of your personal style, window treatments are a finishing touch in home decor that should not be overlooked.
Tips on Buying Window Treatments Online
Installing new window treatments is an easy way to change the look of a room; however, shopping for window treatments can be difficult if you're not sure what to look for. There are several things to think about when selecting the right window treatments or curtains for a room. Using the following tips should help you choose the right blinds, curtains or drapes for a room.
How to Pick Window Treatments to Go Over Wood Blinds
While they're an attractive alternative to traditional blinds and shades, wood blinds can be plain. However, you can easily dress up wooden blinds with additional window treatments. Whether you want to add a valance, or you simply want a more finished look that only curtains can provide, these window treatments make it easy to blend your wood blinds with any home decor.
Best Window Treatments for a Bathroom
Your bathroom is often moist and humid, so you need window treatments that can withstand this type of environment. Whether you want curtains to dress up a plain bathroom window or window blinds for extra privacy, you'll want to consider sun and moisture exposure, your personal style and your current bathroom decor when you look at window treatment styles. The following tips will help you find the best bathroom window treatments for your home.
Best Window Treatments for the Bedroom
The bedroom is the place to go to relax in comfort as well as to get a good night's sleep. No matter what style bedroom decor you have, choosing the best window treatments for the bedroom is based on function, appearance and design. First and foremost, decide if you want simple curtains or more dramatic window treatments to enhance the appearance of the room.
How to Create a Bishop's Sleeve Window Treatment
A bishop's sleeve window treatment is a single curtain panel that has been tied in several places to make it look like the billowing sleeve seen on formal bishop's sleeve blouses, which is fuller at the top and gathered at the end. A bishop's sleeve window treatment looks best in formal living rooms or dining rooms and can be done easily using curtains you already have. You can create this look yourself in a matter of minutes.
Shower Curtain Buying Guide
After towels, shower curtains are an essential bathroom accessory. Shower curtains serve several purposes.

After hearing an outcry from pet owners and landlords, legislators in Annapolis introduced legislation Thursday to overturn a Court of Appeals ruling that called pit bulls inherently dangerous.
The proposed legislation frees from strict liability landlords and others who have the dog in their care and treats all dogs equally, regardless of breed.
The law also offers new protection for victims of dog bites because it shifts to owners the responsibility to prove that their pets never had a tendency toward violent or aggressive behavior.
"We think the compromise is fair to victims, to owners and to landlords," said Sen. Brian Frosh (D-Montgomery), who is sponsoring the legislation in the Senate. He said the bill doesn't single out a breed as dangerous.
The Maryland Court of Appeals in April ruled that pit bulls and pit bull-type dogs are inherently dangerous, and owners and landlords who allow them on their property should be held liable if the dog causes death or injury, even if the animal had never shown a propensity for violence. The case, Tracey v. Solesky, stemmed from an attack by a pit bull on a 10-year-old.
Activists say the court's decision has resulted in families who own pit bulls being turned out of rental housing, and shelters are being inundated with dogs given up by owners afraid or unable to keep them.
Referring to the new legislation, Del. Luiz R.S. Simmons (D-Montgomery) said, "Landlords are not liable for the behavior of a tenant's dog, unless they knew about its vicious or dangerous propensities. That takes away the impetus to get rid of tenants with dogs."
Simmons co-chaired a task force with Frosh to recommend legislation to address the issues arising from the Solesky case.
The Task Force to Study Court Decision Regarding Pit Bulls convened in May and was asked to propose legislation.
"On the task force, there were some who felt the owner should be responsible for any bite a dog does, ever," said Del. Joseph F. Vallario Jr. (D-Prince George's, Calvert), chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. "But this relieves the plaintiff of the obligation to go out and find someone who will say, 'This dog is vicious.'"
Under the proposed legislation, when a dog does bite, the burden is on the owner to prove that it is not vicious, rather than the victim having to prove that it is.
Vallario's committee is scheduled to hear the bill Jan. 30.
During a special session of the General Assembly in August, legislators introduced bills in the House and Senate to resolve the issue, but key differences between the proposals in the two chambers remained, and the session ended before they could reconcile.

What's your thinking on this Ruger? I have shot one at range and liked it...light, small, good recoil. I have been looking at and reading YouTube reviews, gun forums, mags, etc to see if anything to NOT lead me to buy one. Would be for car carry. Thanks for your thoughts.

Get it!! you won't be disappointed. I've range tested one and like them very much. Light trigger pull, accurate, light weight, durable...what's not to like. Are you looking at the .38 spl. or the .357 Mag. model?
Looking at the 38 Special
I haven't heard a single complaint about them. I personally am holding out for the 357 before I decide to get one.
If the pain is lacking so is the discipline... "the only 911 call I need is chambering a round" - Mr. Muller, MO car dealer
I've had one for about 7 months and I'm still very pleased with the gun. I think you can't go wrong with that choice.
While on-line I'm watching Guns&Ammo's TV show on the Sportsman channel, and they're talking & testing the Ruger LCR .357 Mag. They gave it an excellent review and said the LCR .357 Magnum is now available. spitty & adjohns3 here's your chance...
Elsie Arrrrrr is a great firearm for a lot of reasons, one of the most significant is the weight/capacity ratio. It's a very light can o' Whupp-Azz that points naturally and goes BANG every time.

I find it quite horrible to look at, being a traditional wheelgun fan. But I can't argue with the way the damn thing works. I tried out one of the .38 models and placed an order with my gunshop for a .357 in spite of its looks. It's light, accurate and the trigger pull is pretty nice. I was looking for a light weight hiking gun for the summer (strictly human oriented, animals aren't an issue) and a .357 LCR seems to fit the bill perfectly.

Here at HQ we need your help! Unsurprisingly, our developers are all very popular, and because of this, we now have a three-way tie for the dev of the month contest! Of course all of our hardworking devs deserve every ounce of success that comes their way, but because this is a contest, there must be a winner. We need the community's help to figure this one out. Jester, hashcode and myfishbear each have an equal amount of votes in the developer community right now, so we decided to put the vote to an open community poll. Please hit up this thread and vote for your favorite of the three! Here are links to each so you can see their work if you haven't already: myfishbear: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-4-roms/239968-eclipse-jb-droid-4-a.html Jester: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...ix-aka-strippd-spjester-jp1044-t3t3droid.html Hashcode: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...icial-cm10-1-jb-4-2-2-03-22-camera-fixes.html Regardless of which one wins we want to thank all of these devs for their hard work, and for participating in the contest. It's with their help and yours that DroidForums.net is the best place on the planet for Android related info and discussions! Thanks for voting!
Gotta say, jester put a LOT of effort into making their entire presentation sharp and professional looking. Unfortunately I can't test any of the three, so I'll pass on the vote.
Not to dumb down anyone else, all devs do amazing work and its very appreciated. But Hashcode should win this hands down. His work is never ending. Not to mention, STS-DEV-TEAM hopped on board for the whole android community and now officially supports CM10.1, AOKP, and Liquidsmooth. Dont forget about previous ports of killrom, CNA, and the ubuntu project. Most of all Hash's safestrap which is necessary for all roms to run. This man maintains multiple projects on multiple devices( bionic, rzr, d4, kindle, d3 etc...). If the android community votes another way about this.... Then they a showing some serious lack of respect for the Motorola guru/ kexec godfather. DONT LET ME DOWN... This isnt an April fool's is it? Lol Shouts to Jester and Myfishbear for their contributions. Not very familiar with Jester but think its pretty tough he voted for Hashcode. And i KNOW Myfishbear is very hands on and helpful in the community. I am constantly reading threads that he is the man behind. Actually huge thanks to all these devs, without yall my phone would be Verizon garbage. Feels good to rant about all this. Krooked All Day...
Well I guess Myfishbear has come a long way since this debacle!! http://androidforums.com/ally-all-things-root/243170-i-hated-ally-so-much-i-smashed.html Although I don't see many votes for him. Sorry..... did I just Poke the Bear. LOL :happy3:
nice pulling up a 2010 classic lol.... i miss the old days boy did i hate that lg ally... it was slow as molasses and was insolent too many times lol... that's why i executed it... computers should do what they are told lol...:icon_ devil: Edit: just reread some of my post on there... i called the ally a "crapbox" rofl mainly cuz i missed a job interview because of it.. thats why i make my own roms and dont touch lg phones anymore.

Gabler noted that he originally tried to come up with something 'unique' or 'profound' for the occasion, but then realize this was not what was needed.

A woman in Pennsylvania overheard a man on the train bragging about his affairs so she took a picture of him and posted it on Facebook. After being publicly shamed on Facebook this picture has gained a lot of attention and has been shared over 200,000 times!
Slacker and Steve were reminiscing on how eavesdropping has evolved. It used to be that everyone shared a phone line, making it easy to listen in on other people's juicy gossip, but now with baby monitors and new technology there are numerous ways. Regardless, Slacker and Steve agree that eavesdropping is awesome! Slacker knows of a crazy story where an employee overheard a guy on his blue tooth who was organizing a drug deal while in the drive-thru. The employee called the cops and before he knew it he was surrounded by cops.
What have you heard in public that you weren't supposed to?
When I was in second grade we had a field trip to the museum. My teacher decided to carpool with me and my friend whose father was driving. My friends dad set us up a movie to watch for the 20 minute car ride in which I heard my teacher and my friends dad flirting and making a date for the weekend. I never told him but something tells me he figured it out eventually.
With love,
Intern Elana

"A Stunning Novel"
I have been listening to two Audible books per month for two years now. This is not only the finest book I have ever listened to, it is probably also the finest I have ever read. The story is compelling and the asides addressing the foibles of the Victorian era are genius. The narration is simply superb. I have tried reading the book several times over the years, and the intricacy of it on the written page always dissuaded me. Thank goodness I did not miss out on it any longer. A sensational listen.
"Fantastic Read"
This was one of the finest books I have ever listened to. The inter-related stories are compelling, and the characters are each utterly believable as they grapple with divergent life philosophies. The writing is elegant and it is read absolutely beautifully. The previous reviewer mentions that this is a "dark" story, and it is. But like all good tragedy ultimately catharsis is promised and delivered. Highly recommended.

I have a 2010 D/C shortbed Sport. This last week I was rearended. So after getting a repair quote by two shops. I asked if I could get a Crome bumper instead of getting a painted one. Both repair personsonal said, "it did't come Crome that year".
I understand that the Sport only come painted. I don't want to have a chance of having a mismatched paint job. I know they can do a very job now days. But , how about long term? So, i"m asking, I'm I wrong for wanting a Crome bumper?

Redman's role expanding for Steelers
Redman's role expanding for Steelers
http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pitt...nt_713057.html By John Harris PITTSBURGH TRIBUNE-REVIEW Friday, December 10, 2010 Isaac Redman graduated from short-yardage running back to full-service back during a game he will long remember. Redman, once considered a specialist, wants to be known as a complete football player. Not only did he make the game-winning touchdown catch in the Steelers' 13-10 win over Baltimore, he was featured on third downs while establishing himself as a willing and effective pass blocker. "I feel I can do a lot more in this offense," said Redman, who hopes to pick up where he left off in Sunday's home game against Cincinnati. "I can help this team a lot more ways than just short yardage. It was just so good to be in there in that situation. "Everything's on the line, and I'm in the game. A guy that was on the practice squad last year, wasn't drafted. It just goes to show I've earned their trust for me to be in there in that situation." Late in the fourth quarter against Baltimore, Redman was the running back of record. On third-and-goal from the 9, Redman caught a short pass from Ben Roethlisberger and bowled over safety Dawan Landry en route to the end zone. Third-down plays have become Mewelde Moore's specialty. Two years ago, he had 40 receptions, many coming on third down. However, the powerfully built Redman is a bigger back than Moore, and the coaching staff trusts his pass-blocking ability. So when running backs coach Kirby Wilson told Redman, an undrafted free agent from Division II Bowie State, to take the field on the biggest third down of the game, Redman wasn't surprised. "The whole game, when third down came up, me and Mewelde would step on the field and (Wilson) would point to whoever he wanted," Redman said. "At that point in the game, we figured they would blitz." When the play was called, Redman lined up outside like a receiver. "(Wilson) put me out there, not knowing the call, because we call the play off Ben's wristband," said Redman, providing insight into the Steelers' play-calling process."If he knew that play was called, Mewelde probably would have been out there to run the route." Redman said his increased playing time against Baltimore resulted from his improved pass blocking. A training camp favorite last year for his ability to score touchdowns in short-yardage situations, Redman was signed to the practice squad several times but didn't appear in a game in 2009. "Last year, I did really good blocking linebackers in the drill," Redman said. "Honestly, I wasn't too comfortable in the offense to really know who to block. It was new, I was a rookie. But as the year went along, I learned. This training camp, it just felt like it was real easy to me. They really trust me picking up blitzes. My playing time picked up, because Baltimore's got big linebackers. They've got Ray Lewis, they've got (Terrell) Suggs. They didn't want Mewelde in a bad situation blocking those big guys all game. I didn't miss any assignments. I got all of my blocks." Coach Mike Tomlin noticed. "Those backs are interchangeable, particularly in that third-down situation," Tomlin said. "Mewelde Moore is usually the lead dog because of his past experience. lsaac is quite capable. We delivered a pass to him. He was a determined guy. It was a timely play delivered by a young man who works extremely hard." As a result, Redman's confidence has never been higher. "When you make big plays in big games, that's all they can really go by is what you do," Redman said. "For the most part, I've been making pretty good plays when I've been out there. Hopefully, I get to play more and more, and they trust me more and more as the year goes on." John Harris can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com or 412-481-5432. |

Re: Redman's role expanding for Steelers
I like Redman. He's determined so he almost always gets the extra yard on 3rd down. The situation against the Ravens where he scored was a prime example. Not sure if he's an all down back yet, haven't seen him enough, but I'd say he's a keeper.

Re: Redman's role expanding for Steelers
I absolutely love this guy. I'd love to see them use him more. I'd put him in on every pass play. He'd be a terrific check down option.

News In Brief
Venezuela appeared more deeply split along class lines than ever after a national referendum on its proposed new constitution was overwhelmingly OK'd by voters. The measure was headed for approval by a 71-percent to 29-percent margin. It entitles controversial President Hugo Chvez to serve two consecutive six-year terms, allows him to disband what remains of the National Assembly, and reduces civilian control of the military. The new charter, written by a Constitutional Assembly packed with Chvez backers, was bitterly opposed by Vene-zuela's wealthy elite.
Stung by the failure of its first penetration into Chechnya's capital, Russia told a meeting of senior NATO ministers to mind its own business and stop meddling in the breakaway region. Journalists in Grozny reported seeing the burned wrecks of 15 tanks and personnel carriers trapped in a large, open square of the city by Muslim rebels. At least 115 soldiers died in the clash, perhaps the Russians' worst defeat since the Chechnya campaign began in September. NATO foreign ministers, meeting in Brussels, issued a new statement of regret over the Chechnya offensive.
A stronger criticism of Russian actions in Chechnya was expected to come from a meeting of Group of Eight ministers in Berlin. Foreign Minister Igor Ivanov would be told, European Union sources said, that the conflict was likely to result in proposed trade restrictions, among them the loss of Russia's most-favored-nation status.

Hey guys!
I've started doing deep squats (2x week) and leg presses (seldom) and it's shrinking my butt instead of making it bigger.
I'm a 22yo man, 5'7", 140 pounds, and even though my body is naturally athletic I've always had some fat on my butt. My waist is 29" and my butt used to be 38". After less than 1 month of squats it shrunk down to less than 37", even though I haven't lost weight.
WHY would that be if I'm using heavy weights??? I do squats with 100 pounds and leg presses with 300.
Could the workout be burning the fat and so making the the butt flater? What can I do to make it bigger? At this point getting those 2" back would make me more than happy

Shedd aquarium planted hops a few years ago because they look cool. An employee (and homebrewer) noticed them and suggested they be used in beer. Revolution Brewing did and donates $1 from each beer back to Shedd. Pretty cool if you ask me.http://www.guysdrinkingbeer.com/revo...into-the-wild/
Very cool! Wonder what kind of hops there are. I haven't seen the beer, but will look for it.
I tried to find out...every source I've seen says "an unknown variety"...suppose we'd have to taste to find out. Someone reviewed it on BA and thought continental hops. Either way, cool story. I love Shedd, I'll have to look for the hops next time I'm there.

This blog is the second in a two-part series in which we discuss the top 10 diabetes myths.
Hi bloggers. Last week I gave you the first half of my top 10 list of diabetes myths. Here are the final five.
I feel fine, why should I be concerned about my diabetes.
Diabetes generally has no symptoms. At least not until the blood glucose is quite high, and then the symptoms can be rather vague — increased thirst, increased urination and fatigue. A large number of people are walking around with diabetes and are unaware of it. In the long term, consistently elevated blood glucose (above normal range) can cause diabetes complications. Diabetes can be a silent killer. I compare it to having high blood pressure: High blood pressure has no symptoms, but we all know that in the long run uncontrolled high blood pressure can lead to heart attacks and strokes.
I don't need to test my blood glucose; I know my blood glucose level by how I'm feeling.
Many people with diabetes will tell me they instinctively know their blood sugar level by how they feel. While I agree that some people with diabetes seem to be sensitive to changes in their blood glucose levels, research suggests that the majority of people with diabetes cannot accurately judge blood glucose levels. So while some people tell me they don't feel well when their blood glucose is slightly over 200 mg/dl (11.1 mmol/L), others may have blood glucoses of 350 mg/dl (19.4 mmol/L) and not be aware of it.
If I really take care of myself, always follow my meal plan and exercise faithfully, I can avoid taking diabetes medication.
I wish I could say this is always the case, but I can't. Diabetes is a progressive disease, and multiple factors play a role in its progression. I do feel that in most cases a person can stave off the progression of the disease by good diabetes self-management.
Insulin will make me gain weight.
Being on insulin can make it more of a challenge to lose weight, but it can be done. For many people newly starting insulin, weight gain may be attributed to the fact that insulin helps you use calories that had previously been lost in the urine from high blood glucose levels. Also, people will gain weight from treating frequent low blood glucoses. Insulin resistance can also make it more difficult to lose weight.
If someone is on insulin, they must have type 1 diabetes.
For many people with type 2 or other secondary types of diabetes, insulin is the treatment of choice for controlling their blood glucose. Insulin may be the optimal and safest option for them.
This completes my top 10 list of diabetes myths. I look forward to your comments.

Sport Suspension Changed My Tune on the 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG
We often test-drive cars at drive events on unfamiliar roads. This can paint a different picture of how that same model may perform when driven in and around Cars.com's Chicago headquarters, where the majority of our testing occurs.
When I tested the new Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG last year in our nation's capital, I was sure that the area's pockmarked roads were so similar to Chicago's brutal terrain that the overtly firm ride I was experiencing was a no-go — even in a trim level meant for extreme performance.
Related: 2015 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG Coupe Photo Gallery (39 Photos)
Here's what I said in my original review: "The AMG's ride is extremely rough, with jolts coming through sharply over every road imperfection. It's so severe that it reminded me of more aggressive alterations like Audi's RS5 coupe."
Recently, another 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG arrived in our Chicago fleet. When I picked up the keys I was expecting to relive that brutal ride. I was pleasantly flabbergasted that this CLA45 AMG didn't ride anything like I remembered.

Sony to never stop getting sued for rumble technology
It's been more than two years since Immersion and Sony settled their kerfluffle over the latter party's infringement on the former's "haptic feedback" (rumble) technology. However, Sony's not quite out of the woods yet -- it's currently the subject of yet another civil suit, filed this time by Cra...

Lions no.1 pick Jason Smith
KFFL posted an item late Sunday saying that the website has "learned" the Lions will take Baylor LT Jason Smith with the No. 1 pick in the draft.
KFFL is usually very accurate, but it rarely reports anything and there are no sources cited. It's also still over a month away from the draft, leaving plenty of room for skepticism. That the Lions have begun contract talks with their No. 1 pick to be makes it possible, however, that they've settled on Smith. He is probably willing to take a deal only slightly larger than Jake Long's. Mar. 22 - 10:55 pm et Sorry this is all I have |
Re: Lions no.1 pick Jason Smith
im not denying that, but it is way to early to determine that, if i were the lions i would take my time with this pick, it could really impact the direction they are going.
if i were them, they have 2 first round picks (1 and 20), i would take matthew stafford with their first pick and grab michael oher with their 20th pick.. |
Re: Lions no.1 pick Jason Smith
Schwartz made this analogy about playing the safer bet and in this years draft it is O lineman instead of Stafford. Good move for the Lions if they do it. "In my 16 years, this is my first exposure to it, and hopefully it's my last," Schwartz said of having the No. 1 pick. He then compared the situation to gambling — always a wise move, coach — buy likening the No. 1 pick to playing black jack at the $5,000 tables in Las Vegas. The analogy works, though. You can mess up a couple of times at a $100 table. It'll hurt, sure. But make a mistake when the stakes are high, and it's a major disaster. http://blogs.denverpost.com/broncos/2009/02/ |
Re: Lions no.1 pick Jason Smith
you can always look at the miami dolphins last season though, they took the safe pick and matt ryan was starting a playoff game for the falcons. chad henne could still become a heck of a qb but i think they missed on ryan. time will tell. taking a qb first is a huge gamble but sometimes i think it may be the franchises more than the players. if its a losing franchise it takes a really special player to overcome the ineptness.
Re: Lions no.1 pick Jason Smith
"Those Boston College receivers that he was throwing to, there's not a lot of talent there," he said. "It tells me that Matt Ryan must be a pretty impressive leader, a pretty impressive kid to have won 11 games this year with some mediocre talent around him. http://atleagle.blogspot.com/2008/03...day-stuff.html Stafford on the other hand was surrounded by talent, but wasnt that impressive. I think if it was last year, Stafford ranks behind Ryan, Flacco and Henne. This year is just a weak QB draft class.......so it makes sense to go BPA. |
Re: Lions no.1 pick Jason Smith
While some reports claim Georgia quarterback Matt Stafford's pro-day workout established him as potentially the first pick of the draft, it is not an opinion shared by all. Sources have told SI.com that Stafford was trying to show off his arm strength on Thursday and in doing so was inaccurate on a number of deep outs, the money throw for quarterbacks in these types of workouts. And while he was generally accurate throughout the session, receivers were required to leave their feet several occasions to grab a few errant passes from the air. They were not huge issues, rather dissenting points from those who feel Stafford needed to do more before being anointed as the draft's top selection.

Re: Lions no.1 pick Jason Smith
Matt Stafford is Ryan Leaf WITHOUT the gaudy college numbers.
He isn't a headcase though, so he may be a servicable NFL QB. |
Re: Lions no.1 pick Jason Smith
i think stafford is a better talent than all of the qbs in last years draft - but hey i watched him play on saturdays and i am i am very biased. anyhow - if it was my team i would draft a qb. |
Re: Lions no.1 pick Jason Smith
well u alrdy know the lions have there person they want to draft, as they are alrdy in contract negotiations with that player
