Why Iowa can win the Big Ten West
Key returnees, rising recruits and favorable slate make Hawkeyes contenders
The combination of the decline of Wisconsin and the new Big Ten conference alignment placing the two teams that finished the 2013 regular season unbeaten in conference play (Michigan State and Ohio State) into the East division may open the door for a West division underdog to surprise the world by earning a spot in the Big Ten title game.
One strong contender for that role is the Iowa Hawkeyes. Returning 14 starters from a team that went 8-5 last year earned Iowa the No. 19 spot on Mark Schlabach's Way-Too-Early Top 25 and gives the program a shot at 10 wins. However, a closer look at the game tape, metrics and recruiting illustrates why this club should be aiming even higher than a top-20 finish in the 2014 campaign.
Offensive outlook
It starts at quarterback. Jake Rudock showcased some talent in his first year as a starter, as he posted seven games with an Adjusted Total QBR of 64 or higher. This metric adjusts a quarterback's Raw Total QBR by the relative strength of the opposing team and thus indicates Rudock was in the 64th performance percentile or higher in more than half of his starts.
Rudock also fared reasonably well in the bad decision rate (BDR) metric that measures how often a quarterback makes a mental error that leads to a turnover opportunity for the opposing team. His 2.8 percent BDR in Big Ten games last season was a bit higher than the 2.0-to-2.5 percent BDR that serves as the median performance level for quarterbacks in a passing offense like the one Iowa operates, but there is a clear path for improvement.

Mom-to-be Kristen Bell wowed the red-carpet crowd in an ethereal lavender Jenny Packham gown tonight. While the draping on bottom was beautiful, the real stunner was the dazzling crystal-embellished detail on the top half. We love the contrast between the intricate top and flowing skirt.

Such a cute fun street to shop on! Great restaurants too! I also use a hair salon on this street and a mail/packing shop. Everything you need is on 9th street!
Great shops, restaurants and young vibe. Would love to explore more of their hangouts/pubs when I am in town again. They looked fun!
Some good restaurants and local shops. In danger of being taken over by chains, with rents rising in the area. Don't miss Vaguely Reminiscent gift shop and The Regulator book store. Whole Foods is nearby, too.
Every Friday night, people just flock there using up all parking lots. It's common driving around for half an hour just to find a parking spot.
Ninth street has such an eclectic mix of restaurants, stores, and activities. I love starting at one end and visiting the storefronts, bookstores, coffee shops, and restaurants. It can keep me entertained for hours. It's a "must-see" Durham activity.
Seedy and faded. Very few decent places left, and it is sketchy on its best day. You can try to call it a locale with quaint atmosphere - it is dirty and dated.
All the quaint small, locally-based shops gave the area a unique feel. I would definitely take anyone visiting from out of town here for Sunday brunch.
Make sure you get a slice of pizza to enjoy. The city has made nice improvements to the area. There are many places to visit and eateries.
Ninth Street is an eclectic mix of shops, restaurants, and now the encroachment of newer buildings and apartments. A fascinating, fabulous find of wonderful food and great people!
From Elmo's Diner to Vaguely Reminiscent, this mini-college town is a delight. Banh's Vietnamese place should not be missed, And for someone who is not a hamburger affecianado, the burgers at Dain's Place are out of this world!

Enjoying the ride, for now
Optimism reigns as the Celtics cruise into the season's second half
Updated: February 3, 2011, 9:04 AM ETBy Chris Forsberg | ESPNBoston.com
As the Celtics trek home from a successful four-game road trip, a three-game cushion atop the Eastern Conference standings in their checked baggage, there are plenty of reasons for optimism. Not only is the team playing inspired ball, particularly against the league's top competition, but it's nearing full health, with both Delonte West and Jermaine O'Neal pegged at (tentative) late-February returns.
But there's also plenty of work ahead for the Celtics even before the All-Star break ...

The birth of a legend

Updated: May 19, 2006, 1:36 PM ETBy Bomani Jones | Special to Page 2
Nike has won.
In spite of so much that's central to my existence -- skepticism about hype, an aversion to overpriced sneakers, a passionate distaste for seeing the same damn commercial 15 times a night -- I must admit, I am a witness.
How much of a witness? If Nike gave me a ream of catalogs, I'd throw on a white shirt and go door-to-door passing them out to people upset that they got off the couch to answer the door for one of them damn witnesses. I've passed up multiple dates ...

New Kitchen, Pot Rack Over Island Or Not?
kgoreMay 28, 2009
I'm new to the board, but have logged many hours looking at all the gorgeous kitchens! Trying to decide if I want to use a pot rack over my island or not. Looking at all the pictures here on GW, I notice most are using hanging lights instead of racks. I've never had a rack, so I am just wondering if there is a reason so many are choosing to not use one. Would love any input you have.

is a soap dish for the tub outdated?
redoing the bathroom, and in one post someone mentions it may be outdated. If so where do you put the bar soap while taking a bath?
I saw the same post and it has me a bit worried. I purchased a Ginger 18" accessory basket that I planned to put on the long wall of my tub/shower. I didn't think it would look outdated. I also think the shower spray will hit the soap - not good since it is a wire basket. Maybe I will put the basket on the short wall with the tub spout, showerhead and levers. The only thing is that there will also be a handheld shower on a hook. Not sure if it will be too many things on that 1 wall. Just placed my order last week......
For what could be a kid's bathroom, or a bath that infants/toddlers would be bathed in, it seems that I always install a soap dish in the wall. It's usually one with a handle that can be used to hang a wash cloth off of.
Not this one exactly, but it's the first hit I got:
In a non-kid bathroom, even if it's a master bath or a guest bath that has a tub with shower surround, the adults in the house usually opt for a niche low on the wall versus a soap dish. The niche usually being wider or longer versus a pocket niche for just soap.
If they do want a soap dish, they usually go for something a little fancier looking.
If you want a soap dish, put in a soap dish. No worries. They are practical. If you get the right one, it's easy to clean, or even self-cleaning. Some of the more stylized ones can collect soap scum, hold water, and they can be delicate.
So choose one that fits your needs. It sounds obvious, but too many people design for what they think their neighbors will think.
You shouldn't be so paranoid about things looking dated that you give up functionality, or change your hygiene habits. Everything will look dated in 10 years, that's the cycle of design. If you use soap, include something to hold it. That could be a soap dish, a niche, a basket, whatever. No one's going to not buy your house in 10 years because it has a soapdish. :-)
Soap users unite!
Is it a shower tub combo?
I love my bar soap. As far as I'm concerned a soap dish will only be outdated when bar soap no longer exists. Sure niches look pretty...until they're filled with ugly bottles and mushy soap. Get what works for you.
Coolbeans can you please post the link to your modern bathroom reveal? I'd like to see how you installed the soap dish in your shower. Thanks.
This post was edited by island on Tue, Apr 9, 13 at 13:12
Hey Folks,
That was me that mentioned the soap dish being dated. It was tongue in cheek, I really am not a slave to what is and what isn't dated! LOL But, in my defense, I was referring to the chrome soap dish recessed into the bath wall directly in line of fire of the shower head, where in one kid's long hot shower, the entire bar of soap can disintegrate! You know, the one that matches the toilet roll holder! (I still have said TR holder in the last remaining non-renoed BR)
I actually was voicing one of my pet peeves, and it was more about the location of said soap dish. Though, really, if I was spending thousands of dollars on a new BR I would never put one of those metal recessed soap dishes in there, regardless of how many bars of soap I may use!
I personally have hung shower baskets over the shower head, I thought that's where everybody put them! There's a super duper model on sale right now in my Costco! But, my Basement Br has a 4 foot long shelf, and I will never go back... my new Master BR will prob have 2 narrow but tall niches (ie 2 shelves) on shower head wall. (only interior wall in shower).
sloyd: "redoing the bathroom, and in one post someone mentions it may be outdated. If so where do you put the bar soap while taking a bath?"
Our home was built in 1917, and -- given the size of the bathtub in the upstairs bathroom, the bathtub has to have been part of the original construction (it is larger than any doorway in the house and larger than the window in the upstairs bathroom).
There is no soap dish embedded in the wall next to the bathtub. A built-in bench or shelf next to the bathtub also was omitted. In the 35 years that we have lived in this house, whenever I have taken a bath with a small plastic soap dish perched precariously on the rounded top edge of the bathtub, I have wondered to myself, "what on earth were they thinking when they designed this room?"
I think that, finally, I have an answer: in 1917 some no doubt well meaning friend of the original owner suggested that to put a soap dish next to the bathtub would make the room look outdated. I shall curse that anonymous friend to the day we vacate this house,

The largest and most destructive fires in Southern California occur during intense Santa Ana wind events. Over the past decade, these fires have incurred billions of dollars in costs associated with fire fighting, damages to property from both fire and erosion, and impacts on human health. Predicting how these fires are likely to change in the future requires a multi-disciplinary approach that accounts for climate change effects on regional winds and ecosystems, other global change impacts on ecosystems at the urban/rural interface, changing patterns of land use, and responses of land and fire managers to this evolving system. Here we propose to study this system with the aim of improving our capability to mitigate the damages caused by these fires. We plan to address following science questions: 1) How variable are winds across Southern California during Santa Ana events and how are these winds likely to change in the future? 2) How have recent changes in the fire regime changed the composition of ecosystems and their vulnerability to future fires? 3) Will ecosystem responses to climate change over the next several decades increase or decrease the probability of intense Santa Ana fires? 4) How does smoke and dust transported by Santa Ana winds affect human health and regional biogeochemical cycles? and 5) What are the consequences of projected changes in land use for the dynamics of these fires? We plan to work closely with Orange County and Los Angeles fire and land managers, drawing upon their experience to guide our lines of science inquiry and to help formulate strategies for adaptation and mitigation.

Instead, serial killer Michael Ross is still alive and barring any intervention from the Supreme Court, his case will go through another round of legal battles. Despite little chance of passage, Av Harris reports that Connecticut lawmakers who support abolishing the death penalty are encouraged by the stay of execution.

A Chicago businessman who died shortly after winning almost $425,000 from the Illinois Lottery was killed by cyanide poisoning, a U.S. medical examiner says.
Urooj Khan died on July 20 just a day after his winning cheque was mailed out. Lottery officials say he may never have even received it. The cheque was cashed on Aug. 15; the money typically goes to the estate if a lottery winner dies, officials said.
On June 26, Khan, 46, accepted an oversized novelty cheque symbolizing his win from Illinois Lottery representatives; he spoke excitedly of how the money would help him grow his dry-cleaning business.
"Winning the lottery means everything to me, it will help me grow my business!" he exclaimed at the time.
Khan recalled the day he scratched the ticket.
"I scratched the ticket, then I kept on saying, 'I hit a million!' over and over again. I jumped two feet in the air, then ran back into the store and tipped the clerk $100," Khan said when he picked up the prize. Khan chose to receive a one-time payment of $424,499.60 in lieu of $1 million paid out over several years.
At the presentation ceremony at a Chicago 7-Eleven store, Khan was joined by his wife, Shabana Ansari, their daughter, Jasmeen Khan, and several friends.
Less than a month later, he was dead.
He was ruled to have died of natural causes. However, a relative became suspicious and asked for a deeper investigation.
On Monday, Cook County Medical Examiner Stephen Cina said that a full toxicology test revealed Khan had ingested a deadly amount of cyanide, and his death was re-classified as a homicide.
Cina told the Star that it's likely that Khan's body will be exhumed from Rosehill Cemetery as part of the investigation so that a full autopsy can be conducted.
The medical examiner said that cyanide acts as a "chemical asphyxiate" that basically "strangles the red blood cells."
At the time of his death, the medical examiner's office did an external exam, Cina said, screening for such drugs as cocaine and opiates, but not cyanide.
"He was over 45 and there was nothing suspicious about the death," Cina said. "There was no external trauma."
Later tests revealed "a blood level with a lethal range of cyanide," the medical examiner told the Star. Cina said cyanide poisoning is rare, at least in his experience. During his 20 years on the job, Cina has performed roughly 4,500 autopsies; he says this is the first one where cyanide has been the cause of death.
Meanwhile, Chicago police have a mystery on their hands.
Police spokesperson Melissa Stratton told the Star that "we are investigating this murder" in concert with the medical examiner's office.
The Chicago Tribune reports that on the night he died, Khan came home from work to his West Rogers Park residence.
He ate dinner about an hour later and went to bed. He was later heard screaming and was taken to St. Francis Hospital in Evanston, where he was pronounced dead, an internal police document said.
His wife and daughter were home when Khan was stricken, according to the Cook County Medical Examiner.
A native of India, Khan came to Chicago in the late 1980s and began working in the dry cleaning business, according to the Tribune.
He eventually opened three dry-cleaning operations, supervising about 10 employees, the Tribune reported.
The man's widow, Shabana Ansari, told the Tribune that she has talked to police and would offer no other comment.

Attempts to adopt viable alternatives to the moving assembly line, particularly processes that aren't so numbingly repetitive for plant workers, have been elusive in the auto industry as well as other industries.

DEFINITION of 'Tracking Stock'
1. Common stock issued by a parent company that tracks the performance of a particular division without having claim on the assets of the division or the parent company. Also known as "designer stock".
2. A type of security specifically designed to mirror the performance of a larger index.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Tracking Stock'
1. When a parent company issues a tracking stock, all revenues and expenses of the applicable division are separated from the parent company's financial statements and bound to the tracking stock. Oftentimes, this is done to separate a subsidiary's high-growth division from a larger parent company that is presenting losses. The parent company and its shareholders, however, still control the operations of the subsidiary.
2. The most popular tracking stock is the QQQQ, which is an exchange-traded fund that mirrors the returns of the Nasdaq 100 index. Another type of tracking stock is Standard & Poor's depository receipts (SPDRs), which mirror the returns of the S&P 500 index.

You Can't Go (PlayStation) Home Again
The ways that Axiom Verge resembles Metroid help set up and drive home the ways that Axiom Verge is most definitely not Metroid.
Hotline Miami's thrillingly brutal gameplay is stretched to the point of breaking in this aesthetically pleasing, but otherwise disappointing sequel.
Battlefield Hardline did not crash during our tests and appears to function precisely as expected at this time.
Company »
The third Borderlands game, set between the events of Borderlands and Borderlands 2, follows a quartet of familiar faces as they work to bring Handsome Jack into power.
The third game in the BioShock series leaves the bottom of the sea behind for an entirely new setting - the floating city of Columbia, circa 1912. Come to retrieve a girl named Elizabeth, ex-detective Booker DeWitt finds more in store for him there than he could ever imagine.
Ten years after the events of the first game, Subject Delta is awoken and must unravel the mystery behind the Big Sisters and his own past in the ruined underwater city of Rapture.
Venture into the mysterious, Utopian city of Rapture and discover what exactly has gone wrong in this first-person epic.
SWAT 4 is a first-person tactical shooter that puts the player in command of a Special Weapons and Tactics team. The campaign consists of 13 deployments that range from simple warrant service to hostage situations involving heavily-armed terrorists, and it is the player's duty to minimize casualties on all sides.
A tactical RPG from the creators of System Shock. Relive the golden era of comic books as a squad of unique colorful characters or create your own. Sequel to Freedom Force.

Skye Quotes
Coulson: I'm sorry about everything that's happening Skye.
Skye: Not your fault. The blame begins and ends with my dad.
Coulson: Well, you wouldn't be the first person to have parents with misguided intentions.
Skye: Nope, just the first whose crazy dad lured her to an alien city to get earthquake powers.
Coulson: Yeah.
Dr. Garner: I'm not here to discuss my ex.
Skye: Did you guys have actual conversations? You know like pillow talk? Or was it just pillow stern looks?
My entire life I've been searching for my parents, and my search ended with answers that are so much worse than I could have imagined.
Vin-Tak: Asgardian, well that explains a lot.
Lady Sif: It is true, we do not trust Kree. That is why I am here. When Heimdall saw that one landed on your world, Odin charged me with retrieving him.
Vin-Tak: So you came to pick a fight.
Lady Sif: We know enough about Kree history to be concerned.
Vin-Tak: Well then if you know Kree history perhaps you've heard the tale of Terragenesis?
Lady Sif: Of course, ancient Kree descending on planets altering the inhabitants to fight their war.
Vin-Tak: And Earth was one of them.
Skye: Blue angels who fell from the sky.
Lady Sif: Eons ago the Kree waged a very long war. Casualties were high and they needed more soldiers.
Agent May: You mean cannon fodder.
Vin-Tak: We needed killers. One vicious faction among the Kree genetically modified other creatures' DNA. These modifications can be activated with Terrigen Crystals.
Lady Sif: We know these torturous experiments failed.
Vin-Tak: Not on Earth, here we had to shut them down. This faction had built a city. They brought with them the Diviners, which hold the crystals. Their plans were discovered and thwarted by the better of my kind. Putting an end to that dark chapter of our past.
Skye: Until now.
Skye: The whole room was shaking. Fitz, the gun in my hand exploded.
Fitz: Aw God.
Skye: I thought that I could handle it, but I can't it's too much. I think we need to tell Coulson what's happening.
Fitz: Hang on, wait until I've analyze...
Skye: I can't control it when I get upset or nervous.
Fitz: I'm running that diagnostic on your blood samples right now. Hopefully when it's done we'll have a solution.
Skye: I keep thinking Trip is going to come see me. Make fun of me for being stuck in quarantine. Call me a goldfish or hamster or something. And every time I wake up, I remember all over again. I just can't believe he's not coming back. He should not have been down there.
Coulson: You both went in for a good reason. To prevent Hydra from starting a cataclysm.
Skye: He was trying to save me.
Couslon: He may have saved all of us. The Obelisk triggered a massive earthquake. Imagine how much worse it could have been if he hadn't destroyed it? He died a hero.
Raina: Your whole life, our whole lives have been leading to this one moment.
Skye: Sorry, I don't buy into the whole this is your destiny thing. We're taking the Obelisk and we're leaving. There are too many lives at stake.
Raina: You've got it all wrong. Whitehall, everyone has got it all wrong. This doesn't destroy, it gives life; new life. We finally get to find out what we become.
Cal: You have to finish what we started.
Skye: No I don't, I'm not going down there. I'm not going to change or transform or whatever the hell you think is going to happen.
Cal: Why can't you see it's a good thing?
Skye: Maybe it's all the dead bodies laying around or the fact that HYDRA wants it. I'm going to make sure that your Obelisk never gets down into that city. And you're gonna leave. This is your one chance to walk away or I will kill you.
Cal: Okay I'll go, but I'll be waiting for you. After you change no one else will understand. They'll be afraid, change is terrifying. But I'm your father and I love you. I will always love you Daisy.
Raina: Before I met your father I was a lost soul with no clue where I belonged.
Skye: The daughter he never had.
Raina: No, no one could ever replace you Skye. You're all he wants. Be honest Skye, haven't you ever felt lost? Or had that feeling that you were part of something bigger. Like you were special?
Skye: When you say special, what you really mean is alien?
Raina: Is that what you believe? We're human Skye, we just have the potential to be more. But the Diviner, now that is most definitely alien.
Skye: Where do you get this stuff? My father?
Raina: Partly, but my grandmother came from a long line of special people who believed in a story about the blue angels that fell from the Heavens. The ancients called them The Kree.
Tripp: Isn't that in the Bermuda Triangle? 'Cause that would explain a lot.
Coulson: Actually, it doesn't have anything to do with the triangle. We solved that back in the 80's.
Tripp: Ah Atlantis?
Coulson: Try Puerto Rico.
Skye: These white markers represent vertical airshafts that are close to the surface. Possible entry points for the city but most of them are under the ocean floor.
Coulson: Except for one, here, in Old San Juan where we'll enter the underground city. A survey team will test the tunnels structural integrity then locate the temple.
Simmons: And then what sir?
Coulson: We blow the hell out of it.
Coulson: We may actually have a shot at finding the city.
Skye: Are you sure it's something you want to dig up?
Coulson: If we don't, HYDRA will. We need to get there first.
Skye: You two don't have a single thing in common unless you have some Enya albums you've been hiding.
Coulson: No, nothing in common at all.
Skye: I take that back.
