It's not enough that Latinos are primed to "take over" California, the United States and America's institutions of higher learning by the sheer growth of their numbers, now they're threatening to take over evangelical Protestant churches. Sort of. My earlier blogs have noted that Hispanics have become the largest ethnic minority group in the nation and that by next year, we will outnumber California's Anglo population for the first time in history. Well, add to that a report by the …

The end of summer is near and that means one thing: Parents are going through the motions to send their kids back to school or maybe start college. From that group of parents, there are approximately 2.4 million who are grandparents raising their grandchildren. For this segment, it is very important to be budget-conscious when going through expenses and to look for ways to ameliorate the big impact on their finances when supporting their grandchildren. As the great Bill Cosby …

A few nights ago, I was riding the train on my way back home from a New York City trip and I had the chance to read an interesting article explaining the reasons why more Americans are surviving their struggle against cancer, published in the April/May issue of AARP: The Magazine. New drugs, targeted treatments and continuous research have increased the chances of cure and survival. I was glad to read the good news but I began to wonder if …

Family means the world to Latinos. Many of us dedicate our lives to care and provide for our loved ones. But we also realize that our responsibilities do not end there. As conscientious members of society, we care about providing aid to our "extended families," such as our neighbors, fellow churchgoers and friends. At AARP we believe there's nothing better than going the extra mile for those in need – because compartir es vivir (sharing equals living). Learn about four …

I was recently watching the trailer of Chico y Rita, the only Spanish-language film nominated for an Oscar this year, and I heard a quote that had a strong impact on me: "Love is a song that you never forget." For Latinos, love is exactly that: A feeling that permeates everything we do and is as indispensable as adding sugar to your morning coffee. St. Valentine's should be an occasion to renew our commitments, maybe spice up relationships and discover …

Is mom getting a good night's rest? A new study published in today's Journal of the American Medical Association links dementia in older women to sleep apnea, a condition that causes people to stop breathing – for a short period – as they sleep. Researchers focused on women, average age 82, with various sleeping disorders, including apnea. They found those women "were much more likely than those with normal sleep habits to develop cognition problems within five years."

In its first three years, Al Bawaba journalists have had to contend with both political and digital revolutions while trying to carve out their own professional space. Abdel Said and Omar Samy describe Al Bawaba as an Al Ahram success story. In 2012, Forbes Middle East named the Al Ahram websites, including Al Bawaba, the most popular online news outlets in the region. But the success is tempered by the conflicting realities that confront the journalists who work there. "After the revolution I was afraid to say I was from Al Ahram," recalls Ahmed Hafez, a reporter for Al Bawaba. Like other journalists I interviewed for this piece, Hafez says he would often hide his Al Ahram affiliation while interviewing in the streets. "If I had said I was from Al Ahram, I would have been beaten," he says. "It affects your work."
That's the day-to-day reality on the ground. Sabah Hamamou, though, sees a more existential threat to Al Bawaba in the resurgence of the old Al Ahram shackles since the July coup—especially as freedom of the press, once among the revolution's demands, continues to face entrenched barriers, no matter who is in power. "If you want to reform one spot, and it does not spread to other spots," Hamamou says, "it's very hard to keep that part reformed."

EPFD gives tips for safe Thanksgiving cooking
EL PASO (KTSM) — Thanksgiving is next week and that means many people will be spending a lot of time in the kitchen. We want to make sure safety is a priority.
There's an increased amount of fires during the holidays. There were almost 200 cooking fires last year. Five of them were around Thanksgiving.
The El Paso Fire Department wants to make sure your family was safe this holiday season.
Thanksgiving is about spending time with family and enjoying a feast complete with turkey and the fixings, but a fire can quickly ruin the holiday spirit.
"It seems every year; we have at least one or two house fires on Thanksgiving day. And the main cause is unattended cooking," said Michael Ortiz with the El Paso Fire Department.
The El Paso Fire Department said you should stay in the kitchen when you're cooking on the stovetop and stay home when the turkey is in the oven, checking on it often.
They said make sure the stove area is clear of towels, oven mitts, pot holders and anything that can catch fire. Firefighters said always keep children at least three feet away from a hot stove.
"It's very easy for them to knock this handle over, spill the contents of the skillet or the pan on themselves and get severe burns," said Ortiz.
The EPFD said it's important to be ready if there's a small grease fire.
"First thing to do is turn off the stove. Turn off the burner. Then using your oven mitt or a pot holder, you grab the lid of the pan and you slide it on top," said Ortiz.
They said never pour water on a grease fire or try to use a small towel to fan it out. If a fire starts in the oven, the fire department said turn off the heat and close the door.
And if you're using a deep fryer to cook your turkey, instead of the oven, be aware it can be very dangerous.
"People think they'll take the turkey from the freezer right into the fryer which of course, the turkey is filled with water. Water and oil don't mix," said Ortiz.
They said instead you should thaw your turkey for 24 to 48 hours before putting it in a fryer.
Also, people make a mistake of overfilling the pot with oil. When you put the turkey inside, the oil can splash and you can get burned or start a fire.
The fire department said always use the fryer outside and away from anyone or anything that could catch fire.
If you know how to use a fire extinguisher, firefighters said spray it at the base of the fire and in a sweeping motion.
If you're still unsuccessful in putting out the fire, get out of the house and call 911.

Quirky News
Designer creates steel ice cubes
A US designer has created ice cubes that will never water down or change the taste of a drink - because they are made from stainless steel.
Dave Laituri, from Wayland in Massachusetts, came up with the idea for people who prefer their drinks on the rocks but don't want extra water from melting ice.
The stainless steel cubes, known as 'Pucs', let you decide how cool the drink gets by adding your preferred number of cubes.
A single Puc weighs 70 grams and is 25mm x 19mm. They cost £25 for a set of six in either a solid walnut or maple case.
Mr Laituri, 51, said: "Early in my design career, I heard a story that famous designer Raymond Loewy used to drink scotch with chilled with ball bearings.
"He was quite the classy guy and I've heard of other famous people from that era using ball bearings to chill their drink of choice."
But he added: "The ball bearings were too mobile and would often take a leap for freedom and roll across the floor when given the chance.
"But with the marshmallow-like 'puck' shape, they tend to stay put, live at the bottom of the glass for the duration of the drink and are easier to manage.
"They are a classy, non-diluting alternative to ice."

A motorcycle sped by a deputy on patrol Saturday afternoon and tried to pop a wheelie on U.S. Highway 83 at the North River Bridge.
The deputy turned around to try to stop the motorcycle, but the driver sped at a high rate of speed, the sheriff said.
The deputy chased the cycle and rider into Green Acres Trailer Court just off North River Road, where the rider ran and hid in a mobile home, but he was eventually found and arrested.
North Platte resident Ryan Craighead, 21, was charged around 6 p.m. for misdemeanor flight to avoid arrest and exhibition of acceleration.
Ironically, Craighead told investigators had just left a Stop class -- a defensive driving class that he took because of a previous traffic ticket.
Deputies confirmed Craighead was a student in the class, but he apparently didn't take the lessons to heart.

The cyberexploitation analog to damage assessment for cyberattack might be termed effectiveness assessment. If a cyberexploitation does not report back to its controller, it has failed. But even if it does report back, it may not have succeeded. For cyberexploitation, the danger is that it has been discovered and that somehow the adversary has provided false or misleading information that is then reported back. Alternatively, the adversary may have compromised the report-back channel itself and inserted its own message that is mistaken for an authentic report-back message. (In a worst-case scenario, the adversary may use the report-back channel as a vehicle for conducting its own cyberattack or cyberexploitation against the controller.)
These scenarios for misdirection are not unique to cyberexploitation, of course—they are possible in ordinary espionage attempts as well. But because it is likely to be difficult for an automated agent to distinguish between being present on a "real" target versus being present on a "decoy" target, concerns about misdirection in a cyberexploitation context are all too real.
In contemplating what to do about an adversary computer or network, decision makers have essentially two options—render it unavailable for serving adversary purposes or exploit it to gather useful information. In many cases, these two options are mutually exclusive—destroying it makes it impossible to exploit it. In some cases, destroying it may also reveal to the adversary some vulnerability or access path previously unknown to him, and thus compromise friendly sources and methods.
These tradeoffs are no less present in cyberattack and cyberexploitation. But in some ways, the tradeoffs may be easier to manage. For example, because a given instrument for cyberexploitation can be designed with cyberattack capabilities, the transition between exploitation and attack may be operationally simpler. Also, a cyberattack may be designed to corrupt or degrade a system slowly—and exploitation is possible as long as the adversary does not notice the corruption.
To provide a sense of what might be possible through cyberattack and cyberexploitation, it is useful to consider some of the ways in which criminals have used them. A number of such cases are described in Appendix C,

Frosty, Roger the Rabbit and Bugsy
You understand me, wrapped wrists like mummies
from Nelly – E.I. Lyrics on Genius
Frosty, meaning; iced out, Bling. The man is wearing a lot of jewelry. Basically Nelly is explaining he has more "carrots" (a pun on Karats — eg. 24karat gold) than Roger Rabbit and Bugs Bunny; rabbits eat carrots. Whattup Doc?
Followed by the next line; my wrists are 'wrapped' with jewelry. A play on words, Egyptian mummies are wrapped in cloth and usually tombed with valuable stone and priceless items.

I never had anything stolen but my car was vandalized significantly twice. Sad reality of living near campus. 83 East 14th will forever be an experience I won't forget, but it had it's drawbacks.
Dammit Ramzy, I'm at work. I can't be carrying on giggling like a little girl like this. This is very irresponsible of you.
That has to be a fun day at work.The fact that he looks like he plays for a high school golf team makes it even better.
I don't remember Dan Orlovsky going to Iowa.
Ridiculous that this still exists anywhere but it does everywhere. It's a very small minority and unfortunately the expanse of social media allows for disgusting people like this to have a louder voice than they truly do in society.
I can only hope the next AD/Coach bring as many laughs as the current.
No child deserves that kind of trauma. Heartbreaking.
WTF Noah? Hanging out with kids who don't have to worry about drug testing? It's not fair, but you don't get the freedom of the everyday college kid. Better get to figuring that out.
It's fine, I could try to clarify my statement but when an FDNY firefighter disagrees with you on 9/11 you're gonna look like an a-hole regardless.
Well it's certainly more important that it means something to you than if it means something to me or not.
It's not like I'm pro-9/11 over here.
Not a bad Saturday. At least there's one game that should be worth watching at every time slot. The Buckeyes playing at noon certainly helps that.
So now I'm against firefighters? Great.
Uh, it's a flag added to the helmet? Hardly the first time it's been done. I expected some heart melting speech or something.
The pessimist in me expected worse so I guess this is good news. Not that it really matters much until the end of the season.
I'll never look at that picture the same way because of who he was, but also because of how you told it. Well done, Ramzy.
I'm just killing time until Thursday. Saturday seems too far away to aim for just yet.
And I still like College Gameday if it's a good atmosphere, even if I say "oh, fuck off" out loud a couple times.
I am not and it's mostly your fault!
That's the Union I know at the top. The new Union was finished the year after I graduated. Damn kids.

It just keeps coming and coming. Some people have zero sense of shame. Or even fair play. Oct. 08, 2008 Copyright © Las Vegas Review-Journal [size=+3]Alleging fraud, authorities raid voter group ACORN's canvassers filled out forms with fake names, addresses, officials say[/size] By ADRIENNE PACKER and MOLLY BALL REVIEW-JOURNAL State authorities on Tuesday raided an organization that registers low-income people to vote, alleging that its canvassers falsified forms with bogus names, fake addresses or famous personalities. The secretary of state's office launched an investigation after noticing that names did not match addresses and that most members of the Dallas Cowboys appeared to be registering in Nevada to vote in November's general election. "Some of these (forms) were facially fraudulent; we basically had the starting lineup for the Dallas Cowboys," Secretary of State Ross Miller said. "Tony Romo is not registered to vote in Nevada. Anyone trying to pose as Terrell Owens won't be able to cast a ballot." Agents with the secretary of state and state attorney general offices served a search warrant on the headquarters of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or ACORN, at 953 E. Sahara Ave. shortly after 9 a.m. They seized voter registration forms and computer databases to determine how many fake forms were submitted and identify employees who were responsible. more: ReviewJournal.com - News - Alleging fraud, authorities raid voter group
So now the peanut gallery is speechless. I thought so. Barney Frank and Chris Dodd have got to go for allowing ACORN to even start. Obama, stay in Chicago and root for the Cubs, Bulls, Black Hawks, and Bears. The adults will take over from here. Thank you for your interest, but the job requires actual experience. It's a pretty important job being president of the United States, and it's way above your pay grade. //
Strange how so many want to magnify every glitch, gaffe, or accidental mistake by McCain and Palin, but when it comes to investigating the genuinely REAL causes of the economic crisis we are in, if it points toward supporters of Obama, no one cares!!! And people wonder why America is in trouble. The bell indeed tolls for thee. //
you waited precisely 17 minutes before feining indignance, and proclaiming self-righteous victory? you really need to get over yourself... what a charicature... i love the last stupid line, that being president is above the man's pay grade... typical you... so, a man has to be a multi-billionaire or evangelical in order to lead the country? noted... regardless, how does any of this reflect on the Obama campaign? Frank and Dodd? ACORN? you've got to be kidding... still, they turned in the fraudulent applications... just what are you hinting at here, Rove? i mean, Fraug? In a statement released by ACORN on Tuesday, Interim Chief Organizer Bertha Lewis said the group based in Clark County routinely flagged suspect applications and notified the Clark County Election Department. The group provided state and county officials with the names of individuals who submitted the falsified registration forms. "Election officials routinely ignored this information and failed to act," Lewis said. "ACORN pleaded with them to take our concerns about fraudulent applications seriously."
[size=+2] When asked when he believed life begins, Obama said: "That question is above my pay grade." Barack did not want to offer his opinion, his belief, for fear of upsetting people on either side of the question. See how many times he has voted "present" as a legislator, instead of taking a stand. Presidents cannot vote "present", they must take a decision and live with it. "He who stands for nothing will fall for anything", it's been said. Makes sense. He who tries to be all things to all people ends up being nothing for anybody. I do not say Obama is a really "bad" evil guy (unless he's got me completely fooled); but he just does not seem ready for prime time, not when compared to John McCain. Obama does not seem to grasp the inherent gravity of the position of president; he seems more propelled by ambition and status, and his indecisiveness is a liability. No? [/size]
Obama brings a different set of strengths than McCain. McCain's main strengths come from a long life and long tenure in public service. Obama's strengths, though, are many: His wonderful oratory skills are a valuable asset for a leader; the fact that he graduated magna cum laude from the world's best university attests to his intelligence; the fact that he studied and taught Constitutional law for 12 years provides him with a profound understanding of the foundations of our nation; the fact that he chose public service rather than a lucrative law career reflects on his values; the fact that he worked with the poor and unemployed also reflects on his values; the fact that, unlike McCain, his upbringing exposed him to a broad swath of life and cultures, while McCain's whole upbrining was military related; and he's not at all indecisive. He's political, he's smart, he's calculating, but there's not one issue I can think of where he's indecisive. He has outright stated is pro-choice, pro sex education, and pro contraception, but where does life begin? I think that's a difficult question for anyone to answer because it depends what kind of life (human life, cellular life), what you mean by life (is a cancer cell a life?), and what issue is trying to be addressed (abortion, stem cell research). I'm glad you don't think Obama is evil. I don't think McCain is evil, but I think he's a nut, and I supported Bush over McCain in the past, and feel that if McCain gets elected he will use war to try to solve the economic crisis, while Obama would use social services.
I heard this over the radio this morning, on my way to work. Isn't ACORN the same group that Barney Frank wanted to funnel money to, in the bailout plan?
Well, no, you've been owned by the right wing blogs. The logic they make to claim that Barney Frank wanted to funnel money to ACORN goes like this: His bill would have given some money to states and local governments. They in turn could, if they wanted, funnel the money to ACORN (or some other group). At any rate, ACORN is a big organization, and I doubt it has nearly has many crooks as the Republican Party (or the Democratic one, for that matter).
Crooked or not, ACORN is based on a false premise for any society that values self-help, independence, and individual integrity: "money for nothing and checks for free." Bad, bad idea. Who provides the money and the checks?? Those who work have to provide to those who choose not to work. Recipe for total collapse. //

Fox Announces Release Dates For Wolverine and FF Follow-ups Through 2018
By Eric Diaz on March 20, 2014
It's not just Marvel Studios that is getting all their ducks in a row by announcing dates years in advance; according to the Hollywood Reporter, Twentieth Century Fox has just announced a slew of Marvel film's release dates going all the way to 2018. First off, Fox has a sequel to The Wolverine slated for March 3rd, 2017, with James Mangold returning to direct. (Summer sure is starting earlier and earlier, ain't it?) Following that, they also have announced a sequel to Josh Trank's upcoming Fantastic Four reboot for July 14, 2017. This shows a pretty big vote of confidence for a movie that, as of last week, was rumored to be starting from scratch (a rumor that Fox vehemently denied.) Whether or not Trank returns is still very much up in the air.
Finally, an unknown Marvel properties film will be released on July 13, 2018. While it is totally unknown what this movie is, speculation has it that it could be some kind of X-Men/Fantastic Four crossover film. With a third Avengers movie almost certainly slated for summer 2018, that could mean that Marvel's three biggest teams would all have a big screen presence in the same summer. How insane is that? Of course it could also possibly be the long rumored X-Force movie. In any event, this should put a dent in any fanboy's dreams of Marvel Studios getting the mutants and Richards family back anytime soon.

After reading this I really hope people don't start demanding again that the FF or X-Men appear in an AVENGERS Movie. Because that got old real quick.
I sure don't want FF or X-Men in any Avenges movie, but would love to have Fox not make them anymore. The new FF movie already seems to be a stinker and it hasn't even been made yet.
I just hope Cyclops remains dead.

Army knocked off an undersized but game Fordham team a few weeks ago moving their mark up to 4-7. It's nice to see that Army can win a game or 2 or 4 in this transition year, but the feeling that this was a letdown of a season keeps creeping up on me.
Yes, Army should have handled Yale - but Yale is no joke of a team. When UConn people got down on their own team for losing to Army - who lost to Yale. (YALE?!) It wasn't because they were disgusted about their own team. It's because they wanted to talk down to somebody. Well isn't it fun when a fan base like that gets their foot shoveled off? SMU smacked UConn in East Hartford for the Mustangs' first win of the year raising themselves out of the NCAA basement and kicking UConn down those same stairs. The cherry on top was UConn's basketball team losing a game at home to stinkin Yale. (YALE?!) I would give back UConn's loss to erase Army's loss, but at least Yale football is a good team. So I don't want to hear another peep out of sad and bitter UConn fans til they find acceptance within themselves that Connecticut athletics is closer to Vermont athletics than anything the AAC is doing, let alone the ACC.
So we're winding down year one of the Jeff Monken era. There have surely been disappointments - but change doesn't happen in one season. If Army went to New Haven and beat Yale we would have a different perspective on the season right now. The Black Knights would be playing for 6-6 and despite losing a lot of talent in 2015 we've found out a lot about the underclassmen on this team. No matter how you slice it, even with a losing record Army should feel optimistic about the near and long term future.
There will always be errors and some tightness in the first season, that's just how things work. Some of the poor play calls will be ironed out or wholly unnecessary in a couple of years. Right now, Army should be happy with their body of work. There's one more game for the seniors to show off; it's the most important game of our season and the most important game of their lives. Don't count them out: Army is DUE.
Anyway, Army is 4-7 - champion of New York City and face Navy next in the last game of the year.
Here's the Army Fordham story, stats, pictures and highlights.

Army 3-7
Friday, November 21, 2014
Sal touches on one of the artifacts of the regime change - the tricky dynamic between a new coaching staff and established personnel. It's one of those things that makes you scratch your head every time and ask "wow what happened to _____?" or "why isn't _____ seeing the football?"
You'll waste your breath at this point to worry about who's getting carries. When programs change coaches and change schemes it's simply going to take time to acclimate to the change in culture.
One is inclined to say oh, this guy should be hitting runs for career high numbers, but the first year is about teaching. Every once in a while a coach takes over and a team and maybe they return some stars and maybe the coaching change refreshes leadership within the team.
We've all seen both sides of the coin and it's particularly vexing when you guess the coaching change won't affect your team's upperclassmen in either leadership or performance, but it does for one reason or another.
Here's the thing, and I'm happy to get out in front of this today before the Fordham game, Army by many reasonable speculations should have gone to the Poinsettia Bowl this year. Phil Steele had them bowl bound, I thought they should have gained at least 6 wins just judging by what I saw as a soft schedule. Then the setback at Yale, who is having a fine year of it themselves. 100 years of Yale Bowl? I wish the Elis could go to a bowl because they deserve the honor. They play Harvard in their finale for the Ivy League title and win or lose they'll be home for the holidays just like Army. Yale has been a buzz saw this year - incidentally so has Harvard, and 'The Game' has some high stakes this year.
Yale and Harvard have met 58 times since the Ivy League started handing out a championship trophy. This year's meeting at Boston is just the seventh time (since 1956) that the Bulldogs and Crimson each have Ivy title potential heading into the season finale. On a Saturday at Harvard Stadium when ESPN's College GameDay is on site for all the pomp and circumstance and NBC Sports Network airs live coverage, Yale (8-1, 5-1 Ivy) kicks off with No. 17 Harvard (9-0, 6-0) at 12:30.
So Yale is playing ball, but their head coach Tony Reno is only in his 3rd year. How did that team fare in Reno's first season as HC? 2-8, 1-6 Ivy finishing last place in their league. Two years later they're 8-1 playing for a league title. -Just something that distracted me while looking the season's story.
Upcoming is another one-loss team, another team that was probably overlooked as a win before the season started, and now ,well, you have to tune in to see who is the steward of New York football. Incidentally forget the throwback Thursday you've seen this week. 1962 Army/Syracuse in the last college football game in the Polo Grounds is flat-out as good as it gets for a classic video clip.
Fordham has revamped their program and completely restored their standing as a football power. The Rams simply finished 12-2 in the FCS last year and were a playoff team and a top 10 team at that level.
This year, Fordham is just as nasty. Their only loss is to a ranked Villanova team at Philly in the second week, they are already Patriot league champions and have qualified for the FCS playoffs.
Army's facing a tough team Saturday, if they show up and play like they own the place - play sound ball possession football, take care of the ball and take the game physically to Fordham they will be playing for a chance to win. If it's more of the same falling asleep at the wheel in the second half Fordham will have its fans thinking about a step up to FBS.
Oh, here's the Army WKU story, stats and highlights.

About Time
Wednesday, November 12, 2014
I'm convinced this team is trying to kill me.
Nice to finally get that Yankee Stadium win, nice to get that monkey off the back and put the other foot out front for this team and the new coaches. I called for a statement win, and Army definitely won, but statement win?... I don't think so. If anything, it made a statement that Army is still having trouble closing out games. You can't even argue with that. Be honest, you saw UConn get down to the doorstep at the end and in your mind you knew Army lost the game. It's been the case in the 3rd and 4th quarter all year and, really, the way Army/UConn unfolded it shouldn't have been any different.
If you play any team on Army's schedule and give them the ball on the 6 with a minute left and the game on the line there isn't much hope for the win. It's that sort of scenario that has become all too familiar for the Black Knights and fans as Army has had games where they've been competitive through 3 quarters but for whatever reason fall back late in the game and end the game pretty far back in the rear view mirror.
My optimism when Army handled UConn for the better part of 4 quarters was like riding the crest of a wave. I knew Army owned UConn play after offensive play. Offensively they were in tune chip, chip, chipping away. UConn had poor pursuit to the edge, focused too many guys on trying to stop the inside run, and every single time the ball got pitched - Army had even numbers or better and were ripping off big time runs. It's one thing to commit 2 guys over the center, it's another to commit 5 players central and still get run on both inside and outside plays. Longtime UConn blog Ramblings from the Runway phrased it like this:
In each of the games against East Carolina and Central Florida, the Huskies' two best efforts of the season, UConn's opponents ran six plays on either 3rd and 4 or shorter and seven of at least 10 yards to go on third down. However, against Army the Black Knights ran 10 plays between 3rd and 1 and 3rd and 4 (converting 10 times) and just one time did Army have to run a play on 3rd or 10 or longer.
That isn't to highlight ECU & UCF as potential playoff teams, it is just showing that stopping teams has more often than not been a weakness for Connecticut.
I thought Army played Air Force on ABC last year, and I'm pretty sure Army played on CBS in 2011, but this leftover from the Air Force game surprised me:
Network television visited Michie Stadium on Nov. 1 when CBS broadcast the Army vs. Air Force contest. It marked the first time CBS broadcast a game from West point, N.Y. and the first time Army was on a network since Nov. 9, 1996, an ABC regional contest.
One other broadcast related item involves Army's former OC Ian Shields' new team Lenoir-Rhyne... I've been checking for highlights but haven't seen much out there til this week... looks like Shields is still operating a beastly T formation option game.
This video is by far the best video of Shields' schemes with Lenoir-Rhyne, and it looks like they're keeping the stuff pretty simple as the plays shown don't have the layers and layers of misdirection that we've gotten to know from Ian. Nice to see he's keeping it real: Lenoir-Rhyne is 10-0 and plays 6-4 Catawba this weekend for home field in the D-III playoffs.
OK, back to reality Army/Western Kentucky game notes are up (.pdf)

New York Eve
Friday, November 7, 2014
UConn pays a visit to Yankee Stadium tomorrow and while I want to be pumped for the game it's hard to even think about Army football this week.
Sure, UConn - like Army - comes in with 2-6 record and a first year head coach. Likewise, similar to Army's 2-6 UConn's is a pretty *bad* 2-6.
What is there left? Well, it's time for Army to make a statement. Sure, they haven't done well in new Yankee Stadium - sure they've played themselves out of the CIC trophy and bowl hopes for this year - but there will come a time when Jeff Monken's squad will have to make a statement.
Workers put finishing touches on the Yankee Stadium gridiron today in advance of Saturday's 3:30 p.m. Army-UConn game
— New York Yankees (@Yankees) November 5, 2014
Say what you will about the revolving door and injuries at key spots on both sides of Army's football... there will come a time where the Army football team will have to stand up and grow some hair. For me that's this week. Yankee Stadium game - it's a chance for the Black Knights to exorcise the demons of that venue. You get a UConn team - who has been beatable every week this year - with a train trip or bus trip road game however you want to call it, riding the high of knocking off a decent UCF team last week. No secret how they pulled that off- it was by capitalizing on the same turnover bug that has set Army back for as long as I can remember. So forget about the post season or a CIC championship; forget about the seniors - they will have their day. Saturday is about the program making a statement.The first steps for Jeff Monken's Army team are taken on Yankee Stadium turf tomorrow at 3:30.
Army's got some pretty crispy swag for the NYC game:

Army 2-6
Monday, November 3, 2014
Rough way to go out
against Air Force. Army played a strong first half defensively and it
looked like they could keep it close solely on the mojo of the defense. I
probably don't stand alone in saying it felt like it was a question of
'not if but when' Army's defense would falter. There have been
lapses on defense in every game and while the defense was stout early -
the close nature of the game magnified Air Force's big plays.
the other side of the ball the complete ineffectiveness of Army's
offense plowed under any hope to pull the game out in the second half
and the blame sits firmly on the offense for not being able to move the
football - even a little bit. 1 for 12 on 3rd down simply doesn't cut
it. It was like Air Force started with 2 D linemen bracketing Angel
Santiago upon every snap. I think it's amazing that Army had a chance to
make it a game through the 3rd quarter, but defensively, Army came to
play. Offensively, no they did not.
It was just one
of those growing games that you get with a first year coaching staff. 8
games in, I don't think anyone imagined Army would be sitting here with
just two wins, and that's a lot of what stings about where the team is
at right now. Phil Steele's prediction that Army would flirt with bowl
eligibility is now in the ash heap of history - but don't let that bring
you down. There are positives to be taken from every game and the young
guys who have stepped in this year and filled in for injuries are the
seeds planted for this program to grow.
Army is years
away from where they need to be, but the way they will come around is
with that familiar one game at a time ethos. Stick with them, they will
get better, they will beat teams, they will win games, and it all starts
this week against Connecticut.

Stay away from me.
I have nothing to offer.
You waited too long to find me.
I've decided not to believe in you.
All you do is break my heart-
So I've decided you don't exist.
I know I'm a shattered mess,
But if you'd found me before…
But you didn't.
You Haven't,
And you won't.
Do you have any idea how hard it's been?
I need you.
I can't help it.
But you aren't there.
You'll never be there.
I don't have to worry about my scars anymore.
I can add to them all I want.
It's not like you'd notice,
Or care.
It was foolish and naive of me to think you would.
I know I don't deserve you,
And I never will.
Why bother trying anymore?
Soul mate of mine,
Did you abandon me?
Or have you given up too?
I don't know what else to do.
I reach out with my writing,
But can't find you.
I'm afraid to spend my future alone,
But I don't see any way around it.
Day by day my depression grows,
And thinking about you just makes it worse.
I don't know you.
I've never met you.
I can't trust my heart.
Can't believe you will be able to understand me.
After all this time,
And all the heartache…
I give up.
So if you're still looking for me,
If you still want me…
Find me.
I'll be around.
Just don't expect me to fall into your arms.
You'll have to convince me,
Because I no longer believe.
I still hope,
But I'm trying not to.

backflip. I got my backflip around the whole way my first time(you spin less that a frontflip off of the jump take-off)
I tried a frontflip this year and landed on my head, gotta learn it next year with a helmet |

i personally am getting pretty solid on my backflips, and i find them pretty easy to do once you get the commitment issue down. but i have heard from others that frontflips are actually easier to do, i have only tried one, and it didnt go over well, but i am wanting to try it again. but personally, i think that backflips are easier. just pop good off the jump and spot your landing. best of luck!

Also remember to spot your landing when you take the flip to the hill. If you can backflip on a trampoline and when your in mid rotation look where you want to land and perfect that, I'm assuming it will be very similar to doing it on the snow. Hopefully my rambling on will help some.

Yeah it did, thx man!!
Do you find it easier to do it on the bigger kickers since you have more time to think and act? Or would you start on the smaller/medium-like kickers because they're big enough anyways?. thx. |

I would start on a jump that you are completly comfortable on! When I first did a backflip it was on a steaper jump, with a very very soft landing. I was super comfortable with the jump, and then it was all commitment from there. As far as front or back, I think it is a comfort thing. Which one can you see yourself doing when you are on a snowboard? If you can do backflips standing, you should have no problem on the snow. Wear a helmet, and go for it if you are ready! Let us know when you stomp it!

I never tried it anywhere before i tried it in the snow, and that may be why my first attempt ended in my head making first contact. but my second attempt right after that one i got the board all the way around and just washed out the landing. you really just need to commit and not get scared while upside down. just know that over rotating is much better than under rotating in this case. |

In Dinosaur, that means there are 100 people with multiple televisions, 295 people watching scheduled programming, 219 bundling their cable services and 146 of those bundlers who stream TV online.

Davidson: B. McKillop 21 Pts, 3 Reb, 5 Ast, 1 Blk
Nebraska: L. Jeter 18 Pts, 1 Reb, 5 Ast, 4 Stl
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico -- Brendan McKillop scored 21 points, Jake Cohen had 19 and Davidson beat Nebraska 70-67 Friday in the Puerto Rico Tip-Off.
McKillop hit six 3-pointers to lead a complete long-range turnaround for the Wildcats (1-2). A day after a 2-for-22 effort in a loss to West Virginia, Davidson made 11 of 28 3s.The Huskers (2-2) blew a chance to tie when Brandon Ubel was whistled for traveling with 15.6 seconds left. Eshaunte Jones missed a tying 3 and Davidson held on from the free-throw line.Lance Jeter scored 18 points and Christian Standhardinger had 14 points for Nebraska.The Wildcats hit three straight 3s early in the second half, but could not get a lead larger than two points off any of them. McKillop, who made 6 of 11 3-pointers, changed that when he hit consecutive 3-pointers for a 46-40 lead.McKillop kept the 3-point happy offense rolling with another that gave them a nine-point lead.Nebraska, which has dropped both games in the tournament, would get the game within one. Jorge Brian Diaz, the only player from Puerto Rico in the eight-team field, made a layup for a 58-56 lead and Jeter's jumper cut it to 63-62.Diaz scored 13 points.The Huskers had funky numbers in each half: Nebraska shot 32 percent in the first 20 minutes and led 30-28; then went 12 of 19 from the field in the second and were outscored by five points.Nebraska even won the battle from the free-throw line, making more shots (23) than Davidson attempted (20).The difference was at the 3-point line. Jeter made the only two 3s for the Huskers. Cohen, who scored 15 points in the first half, hit two for Davidson and De'Mon Brooks also made two. Brooks hit a big one late as part of his 11 points after Diaz's layup made it one-point game and gave the Wildcats just enough room to keep the lead the rest of the way.Nebraska's Drake Beranek made two free throws with 29 seconds left to make it 65-64.Ubel, who had nine rebounds, was called for the crucial travel and a desperation shot was off the mark.Each team has one more game in the three-day tournament on Sunday.Copyright by STATS LLC and The Associated Press

The Eastern Company Reports Results For The First Quarter Of 2010
The Eastern Company (NYSE Amex - EML) today announced the results of its operations for the first quarter of 2010. Sales for the quarter were $31.0 million, compared to $28.4 million for the same period in 2009, a 9% increase. Net Income for the first quarter was $1.0 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of ($1.1) million, or ($0.18) per diluted share that was reported in the first quarter of 2009.
Leonard F. Leganza, Chairman, President and CEO stated, "We are very pleased with the results we achieved in the first quarter of this year. All three of our business segments reported increased sales and earnings as compared to the first quarter of 2009. Cost and expense reductions implemented during 2009 have helped to provide ongoing positive results across our business segments. While we have experienced increased sales in many of the markets we serve, it is still too early to conclude whether or not the economy will sustain itself and continue to get stronger. However, we feel very positive about our business plans for 2010 and anticipate an overall increase in sales and earnings for the year."
Mr. Leganza continued, "Our Metal Products segment experienced a very significant operational improvement in the first quarter and recorded solid operating earnings. Continuing demand for our mining products is expected throughout the year as the demand for coal continues to be strong. To meet the anticipated production demand, quality and delivery requirements of our customers we are investing approximately $2.5 million in a capital improvement plan in the Metal Products segment to assure our response to those requirements."
Mr. Leganza further stated, "In the Industrial Hardware segment, sales increased 15% compared to the first quarter of 2009. We experienced a general increase in sales in our primary market sectors which are distribution, vehicular, and industrial hardware. Sales of Sleeper Cabs, manufactured with our lightweight composite material, for both military and commercial Class 8 heavy trucks began ramping up in the first quarter of 2010 as a result of the upward projections in the trucking industry. Our first quarter results also included the shipment of over 350 kits of lightweight panels used in the assembly of local delivery vans in the Mexican market. We anticipate additional demand for those kits throughout the year. In addition, our Mexican facility is prepared to manufacture our lightweight composite panels for several other applications."

Force India have confirmed that former driver Adrian Sutil will appear for the team at the this week's pre-season test in Barcelona, Spain.
The 30-year-old German, who raced for the Silverstone-based squad between 2007 and 2011, will get behind the wheel of the new Mercedes-powered VJM06 on day three of the four-day test on Thursday.
Paul di Resta - Force India's only confirmed driver for 2013 - is scheduled to drive on Tuesday and Wednesday, with Jules Bianchi taking over on Friday.
Sutils return to the cockpit was widely anticipated, after he visited the Force India factory for a seat fitting last week. Both he and Bianchi are thought to be in contention for the teams vacant race seat alongside Di Resta.

New Zealand's new Governor-General, Sir Jerry Mateparae, gives his first New Year message in a tradition started by his predecessor Sir Anand Satyanand.
Kia ora. Nga mihi o te tau hou. Greetings to you all for the New Year. It's an honour, as Governor-General and representative of Her Majesty the Queen of New Zealand, to give my first New Year message.
The start of the year is a time when most of us take a break, catch up with family and friends and enjoy the long summer days. It's also a time when we reflect on the year that was and look forward to the year ahead.
The last year has been difficult. The loss of life from the earthquake on February 22, like the Pike River Mine disaster in November 2010, reminded us that life is precious. When the container vessel Rena went aground near Tauranga, we were reminded that protecting our pristine environment is also important to us. As a nation where the roots of family, neighbourhood and community run far and deep, these events touched us all.
While we remember these terrible events, we should not forget all that we have achieved. It was superb that the All Blacks won the Rugby World Cup, giving us something to celebrate. Even more fantastic was the way we made the tournament our own, embracing the notion of a stadium of four million people.
Our response to the good and the sad times has galvanised my belief in New Zealanders. I have seen New Zealanders repeatedly demonstrating the values we all cherish. I have seen compassion, warmth, tolerance and a strong sense of community, where everyone is prepared to get stuck in and help friends and strangers alike. And I have been impressed by the ingenuity, talent and innovation demonstrated by our young people and leaders in many diverse fields.
We do not know with any certainty what lies in store for us this year. There are events like Her Majesty's Diamond Jubilee, the Olympic Games and other commemorative events to acknowledge. There will also be other occasions to celebrate our heritage, our way of life and our aspirations for the future. Undoubtedly, there will also be occasions where we will need to comfort our fellow New Zealanders and again demonstrate our resolve.
Building a better future for our tamariki and mokopuna requires us to draw on the storehouse of New Zealand's strengths. Our values and our people have served us well in the past and will do so in the future. I intend to work to serve New Zealanders, bringing people together, promoting what is important to us and celebrating excellence. Most importantly, I urge you keep before you the sentiment of the proverb: "He aha te mea nui o te ao-What is the most important thing in the world? The answer is: he tangata, he tangata, he tangata - it is people, it is people, it is people."
Thank you and I wish you all a happy and safe summer holiday and a successful 2012.
Lt Gen The Rt Hon Sir Jerry Mateparae, GNZM QSO
Governor-General of New Zealand.

Cool steins... I have a few more. The ones up top are "His and Hers" versions that I picked up at a stein show last week.
Newest member of the gang - Westerwald Stoneware stein - ca. 1870
^^Wow! That one almost looks like carved ivory. Very cool. I like steins for when we're sittin in the shade in warm weather,waitin on the bbq pit. Keep the dust & bugs outta the beir. Plus they look so cool.
We road tested it last night at a local restaurant... Keeps the beer nice and cold. They're a lot of fun to drink from and draw a few stares here and there. Sometimes people can't believe we bring the old ones out - but that's what they were meant for.
I'll bet they stare a lot. That one is def different.
I will have to catch up to this one when i get home. i've got a decently sweet collection of old ones with some not so old. great thread idea!

The 5 Most Intentionally Funny Videos of the Week 11/22
By Jake Kroeger on November 22, 2011
After some intense soul searching/hearing Pete Holmes' "Impregnated With Wonder" and realizing the importance of having fun in life, The 5 Most Intentionally Funny Videos of the Week is back. You might have guessed already that Holmes' Conan set is here, as well as 4 other sketches, web videos, and web series that are planned to make you laugh as opposed to random people getting hit by things.
1. Hal Rudnick, one of the field reporters for the cancelled-before it-got-going talk show The Daily Habit, goes to Exxxotica for Funny or Die even though he was supposed to go to Comic Con. Also, he goes like it's Comic Con.
2. Uncle Mom, recently featured on Tosh.0, gives you a look into what the apartment of a Secret Admirer looks like.
3. As I said before, Pete Holmes' Conan set would be included, and it's magical (especially in its defense of magicians).
4. If you've ever wondered what the last episode of the children's educational program Reading Rainbow was like (and now you probably are), some of LA's funniest up and coming stand-ups have a very convenient answer.
5. Maria Bamford + Black Friday + Target Promotions = 20 hysterical videos.
Wrong. Those Target commercials are unbearable.
Does Target commercials are great. Maria Darken the XMAs season, which make me happy. Happy=Great
God, I love Maria Bamford.
God, I love Maria Bamford.
I have to hand it to Target for using someone that 80% of people will not "get" – including my mom. You have to know Maria to appreciate Maria. Not personally. You know what I mean.

BTW guys... it was read by an optical tach check so we do know that the 4K is an accurate number. Good to know it it probably just a governor adjustment.
Thanks for that info. It's an involved and technical proceedure to set the adjustment of the Fuel Injection Pump and Govener; way to much for this discussion, and quite possibly not even necessary as the injection pump appears to be operating without complaint. The motor appears to be operating ok, there are no reports of any other issues except high rpm's in neutral, which is what the manual calls for; verification at no load test. Why not break the wire on the Maximum speed adjustment bolt to lower the no load RPM's to 3600. Then rewire the maximum speed adjustment bolt. The wire I would asume is an antitampering concept. Another alterenative as Ed pointed out in an earlier post is to not run the engine at full throttle, which imho is as easy as it can get to solve this issue.

Clayton out to impress at Leeds
02 Sep 2010 - 14:59:55
Former Manchester City midfielder Adam Clayton believes he can now watch his career progress after completing a permanent move to Leeds United before the transfer window closed.
Clayton, who enjoyed a lengthy loan at Carlisle United last term, has penned a three-year deal with the Elland Road-based outfit and he can't wait to get going after a brief temporary spell with the Championship club at the start of the season.
"Leeds is a massive club - just as big as Manchester City. It's definitely a place and an environment where I can learn and get better as a player," he told the club's official website.
"Everything at Leeds is geared up for the Premier League, the stadium, the facilities, the tremendous atmosphere, the fans, so I think it is definitely somewhere that I can grow and develop as a player.
"When you come on a month's loan you can feel as though you have to move the earth sometimes to impress and having got on only a couple of times it was in training where I was going to have to do that.
"It looks like I did that and, hopefully, I will be deserving of the contract. I was delighted to get the deal done and now I can't wait to get my career with Leeds started.
"If we keep fighting for every point, keep on scrapping, I think we can be there or thereabouts this season."

More than 100 Republic branches nationwide, including one in The Bridges, have been bought by the Newcastle United boss' Sports Direct group.

Earlier this week the famous circular lake at the McLaren Technology Centre was fished for the very first time. The fishermen were 13-year-old Liam Fairhurst, an ardent McLaren fan, and the teams Finnish race driver Heikki Kovalainen.
Liam has been fighting cancer for the past three years, as well as raising money for the children's cancer charity CLIC Sargent in memory of his friend, Jack Wilkinson, who died of the disease. Over the past 20 months, he has raised in excess of £250,000.
When Liam first visited McLarens famous Woking headquarters in July, team boss Ron Dennis was so impressed with his fund-raising abilities, that he set Liam a charity challenge. The result was that on Tuesday Liam caught 25 fish from the McLaren lake in a single hour.
Dennis had pledged £50 for every fish Liam caught, which works out at £1250. Dozens of McLaren Group employees and many of Liam's family and friends also agreed to sponsor his fishing exploits, bringing the current total for the challenge to almost £3000.
"Liam has shown great fighting spirit - both in coping with his illness and his determination to raise funds for and awareness of CLIC Sargent - which is a hugely worthwhile charity, said Dennis. Like myself, Liam couldn't resist a challenge and showed huge prowess with a fishing rod.
He has earned the admiration and respect of a huge number of our employees who have stepped in to sponsor him, and the awareness raised via the internet has helped raise a significant amount of money for the charity. His efforts have been suitably rewarded and we at McLaren are proud to have played a role in his commendable fund-raising efforts."
After landing his 25 carp with the aid of fishing instructor Martin Locke (Kovalainen managed just one), Liam commented: Thank you to everyone at McLaren who came out to watch me and added to my ever growing total. With Ron's money we are nearly up to £3000 which will make a huge difference to families like mine and this now takes my grand fundraising total to just over £278,000.
