You know the drill. Each week, shortly after we publish our weekly rankings, I sit down with our four experts, Matthew Berry, Christopher Harris, Erik Kuselias and Eric Karabell. We sip tea, snack on crumpets oh, heck, truth is we just butt heads and smack talk for an hour or so.
They work hard on their rankings, and I work just as hard to poke holes in them. That's right, these four guys are getting "Called Out!"
First up, a little group discussion with Matthew Berry, Christopher Harris and Eric Karabell.
Berry: We're two games into the season. I always say you don't panic about a guy.
Harris: I'm faithful because two weeks usually isn't long enough to give up on players, and when we're ranking, we're really giving probabilities. The probability is that an NFL star who has been good for years won't suddenly stink indefinitely. Hey, it happens. But Jackson hasn't been all that bad. Although his offensive line is banged up and his yards per carry is down, he has 10 receptions in two games, and if he had scored a touchdown, we wouldn't be having this conversation. Edwards has had two tough opponents, some bad drops in Week 1 and horrible weather in Week 2. And I agree that the Chargers are troublesome; I dropped them from second to 11th on my season list of defenses. But there are still scads of talent there, and I don't think we appreciate how good the Denver offense is. The Jets will make some mistakes, and I think the Chargers' defense will be adequate this week.
Karabell: I just think it's way too early to give up on talented players. Last season we were discussing LaDainian Tomlinson this way, weren't we? He had rushed for a total of 130 yards and one score in three games. Um, I'd say he ended up OK. Jackson has a challenge in that his team stinks, and they'll be throwing a lot, but he'll get his numbers. After all, Ronnie Brown was leading the league in rushing last season for a winless squad. I did move Jackson and Edwards down in the rankings a bit, but I'd still start them. As for the Chargers, it's still about the matchups when it comes to defense, MVP linebacker or not. The Jets still rank as a semifavorable matchup for San Diego.
Now, the individual questions. First up, new soap opera star Matthew Berry!
Cockcroft: Harris, Kuselias and Karabell all had Braylon Edwards in their top 12, but you had him 20th. I'm in your camp on that one -- at least for this week. But it's worth asking about because that's still a definite No. 2 receiver ranking, so you obviously still have faith in the guy. Tell me how you feel about Edwards for this week and beyond.
|Matthew Berry: Edwards will find the going tough this week.
Cockcroft: Wow, J.T. O'Sullivan at No. 5 among quarterbacks. That's one of the boldest calls I think I'm going to see all season. You have him ranked higher than Eli Manning, Kurt Warner, Drew Brees and Ben Roethlisberger, and none of the other three guys had those guys lower. Frankly, I wouldn't either. Well, at least not Eli, Warner or Brees. How can you go from such hate for Mike Martz's offense one week -- O'Sullivan 26th for Week 2 -- to total love the next? I know, matchup differential, from a road game at Seattle to home against Detroit, but that's a huge swing.
Berry: Football, more than any other fantasy sport, is based on matchups. I didn't hate Mike Martz's offense, I just felt it's very tough to play on the road at Seattle. Now that the 49ers have shown they can do that, I feel a lot better. I've always been a fan of Martz from a fantasy angle. I had Lions QB Jon Kitna in my top 10 in the preseason last year. Now the Niners are at home, against one of the worst defenses in the NFL. What put this over the top for me was the revenge factor. You think Martz doesn't want to run up the score on his former employer? At home? Of course he does, and he'll take every opportunity to embarrass the team that fired him. As for the other guys you mention, well, Manning's ranking is just a case of the team's having so many rushing weapons; the Giants should run all over Cincy. Besides, I still have Manning very high. Warner's rank is a show of respect to the Redskins at home -- they shut down Drew Brees last week, remember. And Brees, well, he is on the road, against a better-than-they've-shown Denver defense, and appears to really miss Marques Colston.
Cockcroft: My boy Brandon Jacobs surely warrants better than a No. 15 ranking against Cincy. Willie Parker, Maurice Jones-Drew and Joseph Addai are all better? I see some concerns in each of those three, at least as big as with Jacobs, whose biggest problem is that Derrick Ward and Ahmad Bradshaw could steal his carries. Still, that's a hard sell. Are you that worried about the three-headed Giants monster diluting the stats?
Berry: Yeah, it's the three-headed-monster thing. Look, he had a fantastic matchup -- and game -- against the Rams last week, right? Just awesome. Well, he finished with nine fantasy points. Nine. Tied for 23rd among running backs last week. The Steelers' Willie Parker has been a beast so far, and as the Cowboys' Marion Barber showed, you can run against Philly. Indy has just lost Bob Sanders, and in four career games against the Colts, MJD has more than 400 total yards and five touchdowns. He always plays well against the Colts. As for Addai, getting Jeff Saturday back, which figures to happen this week, will be a big boost to him.
Time to introduce the newest starting flanker for the Seattle Seahawks, Christopher Harris! Seriously, that team might not be far from signing guys off the street right into its starting lineup, but didn't they kind of just do that (Koren Robinson)?
Cockcroft: Let's kick things off by discussing one Mr. Willie Parker. I took a lot of heat for my preseason projections of the guy after he ripped off that three-touchdown opener, but I see this matchup at Philadelphia and can't help but be concerned. No trashing Parker, who I admit is a very good back, but I see you have him No. 15, and I think that's the right play. No one else apparently does. So why shouldn't this guy be considered a stud?
|Christopher Harris: Willie Parker is ov-er-at-ed!
Cockcroft: Amen. Problem is, it looks like you and I share the same opinion on most of the Steelers this season, and you know their fans will come calling if we're wrong. Not that I mind, and apparently you don't either, seeing as you still have Santonio Holmes generously ranked at No. 10 among wide receivers. Problem is, Hines Ward, whom you had at No. 22, has easily outpaced him in every prominent statistical category through two games, and he has nearly tripled Holmes' fantasy points (30-11). I still like Holmes, too, but that's a fairly wide split between the two receivers. Is it just blind faith?
Harris: Some of my logic is the simple law of averages, and some is blind faith. But a lot of it is that I've seen them play. Ward is slower than he ever was, and as the season moves along, he might have difficulty creating separation. Holmes is coming into his prime. Toss out Week 1's HinesFest, and what do you have in Week 2? Holmes: Seven targets, five catches, 94 yards. Ward: Eight targets, five catches, 59 yards. Ward had the touchdown, but Holmes is the deep threat, and remember: That game was played in a downpour. Ward is still a fantasy option and still a good red zone receiver, but Holmes is the guy to own here. Again, the sample size is so small. If Holmes had scored a touchdown, we wouldn't be having this conversation.
Cockcroft: I wish he had. Holmes is killing a lot of my fantasy teams.
Now, I did bust a little on the Seahawks to begin our segment; obviously, I was kidding. But seriously, the Seahawks' receiver corps qualifies as an absolute mess right now, and that's putting it lightly. Still, if you have John Carlson ranked only 16th among tight ends, who on Earth will Matt Hasselbeck throw to instead? You? Were you taking my joke about your hopping into the starting lineup this week seriously?
Harris: Koren Robinson. Billy McMullen. Courtney Taylor. Keary Colbert. Heck, Julius Jones. Mike Holmgren has said that he'll be rotating everyone he has this week. The larger story here is, what in the world are two of our experts doing ranking a rookie tight end with 12 career targets, 10 career catches and zero career touchdowns in their top 10? There's clever, and then there's too clever. Do you really like Carlson better than proven commodities such as Jeremy Shockey, Heath Miller and Owen Daniels? Good luck with that.
Cockcroft: Better than Miller? I do. Maybe better than Daniels, too! Thanks for the well wishes, but I won't need it. Not this week with Carlson, at least.
Next up is Erik Kuselias, who's actually conducting his interview live from his final-week visit to Yankee Stadium! Erik, just a quick note, it's not legal to strap a batting cage to the roof of your car to take home. Sorry, find a different souvenir.
Cockcroft: Erik, since I didn't get to ask you our introductory question this week, I'd like to do so now, but I'll narrow it to one slow starter: Steven Jackson. Why so faithful?
|Kuselias: How could anybody be down on Steven Jackson?
would you rank him lower than 14th? Me neither. Say hello to Steven Jackson. Trade for him now, reap the rewards in your playoffs later.
Cockcroft: I can't. I own him on plenty of teams already! Anyway, Julius Jones only No. 20? That's crazy talk, simply put. Is it something in the hot dogs? Now, I admit, I'm not a big fan of his in general, but Jones pretty much is the offense in Seattle these days, and St. Louis' defense is brutal. How's he a borderline No. 2/flex play, but no more?
Kuselias: Julius Jones had a nice game and scored a touchdown against the Niners, but if you watched the game, you noticed that his touchdown run was a longer, broken-play run (27 yards) and that when Seattle was near the goal line, Jones felt this tap on his shoulder and turned to see T.J. Duckett in the huddle saying the words, "Go stand next to Coach Holmgren, you're too small to be on the field when it's touchdown-scoring time." Duckett got the goal-line carries and scored from the 1-yard line at the key juncture in the game.
A guy who needs either a long run to score or won't score at all cannot possibly be a great play unless he's a vital part of the passing game. Seeing that Jones had a whopping 14 yards receiving, the savvy player understands he probably will have less than 100 yards rushing, no touchdown and no impact catching the ball.
So when you grab the dictionary and look up "overvalued guy who is really a No. 2 running back," you'll see Julius Jones waving back at you.
Cockcroft: I do know you're huge on touchdowns as running backs go. As such, I dug up the numbers for you this week: When the Titans have been in goal-line situations -- within 5 yards of their opponent's end zone -- this season, three times they've run the football, and all three of those times it was LenDale White who got the rock. So I understand why you still prefer White to Chris Johnson. I can see that. Still, you had White 24th and Johnson 25th, and if you average those, it's the worst rank of the duo of any of our four rankers, which is odd considering the matchup against Houston. Is this a matter of these two guys' effectively canceling each other out most weeks?
Kuselias: The Titans' running back situation comes down to this: Jeff Fisher must really crave peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
When you crave a PB&J, you know that you need both; it's the combo that makes it great. A peanut butter sandwich is dry and slow -- LenDale White -- and a jelly sandwich is sickly sweet and doesn't have much substance -- Chris Johnson. But together? Mmmmmmm, tastes like a win.
Jeff Fisher is the anti-Mike Shanahan. He's telling us exactly how he's gonna play it: Johnson between the 15s, and White for the 6 points. This ensures that both guys will be at around 11 points each on a good day -- see last week -- and in most weeks will both score in single digits. Together, the White/Johnson combo is close to a 20-point back. But individually, they are flex-type players.
Cockcroft: I'm not a big fan of PB&J sandwiches. Never have been. Heck, I'll take one of those funky hot dogs first. Another thing I'm not a fan of: Earnest Graham against the Bears this week. But you have him 12th among running backs! What about Warrick Dunn? You're huge on touchdowns, as you've made abundantly clear the first two weeks and in this interview. But if that's true, why no worries about Dunn, who has seven of the Bucs' 12 red zone carries this season?
Kuselias: Don't confuse red zone with goal line. When a guy gets that ball on third-and-4 from the 19-yard line, that is a red zone carry, but it's far from a goal-line carry. Goal-line carries are far more important, and they have and will continue to go to Graham. Graham ain't dead sexy -- that's Heather Graham (whatever happened to her, by the way?) -- but he's efficient. He has more than 90 yards rushing in each game, is averaging more than 100 yards and scored double-digit touchdowns last year. If that isn't a No. 2, I'm not sure what you're looking for.
Cockcroft: To be fair, the Buccaneers had only one goal-line carry (5 or fewer yards from the opponent's end zone) in Week 2, and Dunn made that carry. Twice in five goal-line plays have they converted for a touchdown; both were passing plays!
As for Heather Graham, what, you mean you didn't race out to see "Miss Conception?"
Last but certainly not least, folks, and decked out in his new DeSean Jackson jersey this week, it's Eric Karabell!
Cockcroft: Matt Cassel at No. 11 among quarterbacks is the highest rank of the group, and seemingly bold for a guy who posted (snore) 165 yards and zero touchdowns passing in Week 2. Still, with Miami on the docket, I like the matchup and probably would put him around there myself. Are the other three nuts? Tell us why Cassel is very much worth starting consideration, so-so Week 2 or not?
|Karabell: Heck yeah, I'd start Matt Cassel this week.
Cockcroft: I heard a moth got caught in the computer's wiring while it was churning out our Week 3 projections. Either that, or Belichick has taken to hacking into our databases in his spare time. Anyway, I do like your boldness; Cassel surely could surprise.
Can't make the moth excuse for you on your Steve Smith ranking (No. 20 among receivers). None of our other three rankers put him lower than 13th. Are you really worried he's due for a more ordinary performance in his 2008 debut?
Karabell: You can't say I'm not afraid to be unlike the others! I own Smith on a team and will activate him as a flex, but I think our projection for him of 60 yards is reasonable. I don't think he will be like Brandon Marshall last week; Smith won't go completely nuts with 18 receptions. I just don't like the matchup. For one, why does everyone assume the Vikings can be thrown on so easily because they were in 2007? This defense controlled Peyton Manning and his friends for three quarters a few days ago. I was trying to make a point, and I do see quite a few wide receivers I like better this week.
Cockcroft: So long as none of those receivers are Seahawks. (Don't worry, they're not). Sticking in that division, exactly what do you see in the 49ers' defense to rank them No. 6 hey, wait, where are you going?
Odd, Eric seems to have gotten up just short of finishing our interview and stepped away to do a little touchdown dance. I think I'll need to throw the challenge flag.
OK, Eric is back, but now he's wearing his Brian Westbrook jersey. Odd. Anyway, last question, Niners. Defense. No. 6. You ranked. Thoughts?
Karabell: Turnovers. I see turnovers, and Jon Kitna is the Santa Claus of turnovers, giving all the good little boys and girls of the fantasy football world a few each week, meaning you can find a sleeper defense to use. Plus, one would think Mike Martz will be able to spot some of Kitna's tendencies because he was there in Detroit for years. Just another defensive hunch. I seem to get a few every week.
Cockcroft: Mmmm, turnovers. Wish Kitna would send me some turnovers. What? Different kind of turnovers? Eh, oh well. What can I say. I'm hungry! Besides, it's lunchtime, so let's wrap up for Week 3. Best of luck this week!

How to estimate quantity for an area
We are embarking on our first bulb order for Fall 09 planting. I am wondering how to determine the number of bulbs you will need for an area, as well as the bloom time.
For example, we are thinking of planting daffs under the forsythia. I would think that we would need very early bloomers to time it with the forsythia, no?
Then we are hoping to put tulips under our cherry tree. It is not enormous and gets sufficient sun under there. The cherry tree blooms about 2 weeks after the forsythia, but would that still be early or midseason bloom? I was thinking about 20 bulbs under the tree.
We have another area we were planning to plant and it is fairly thin but long. Is there a metric to estimate how many bulbs of a type that you will need?
Many bulb catalogs will give you an estimate, like "four bulbs per square foot", Brent and Beckys Bulbs, for one. If you can measure your area (length in feet times width in feet equals square feet), then you're in business. I would advise you to work on one area at a time (as budget permits) and fill it well, rather than putting a few bulbs here and there and everywhere. You'll get alot more bang for your buck that way. Also, if you're just starting out with bulbs, I would recommend that you first concentrate on bulbs that will multiply, so that time becomes your friend. Tulips are, for the most part, strictly annuals.
For example, we are thinking of planting daffs under the forsythia. I would think that we would need very early bloomers to time it with the forsythia, no?
I made the mistake of planting some daffs and other things 'near' the forsythia. Then the forsythia exploded with new growth. Needless to say, there are now things under the forsythia that need moved, along with giving the forsythia a severe trimming up.
Forsythia having a bad hair day.
Below is a neat pic of one that is all limbed up. It looks neat but not like some that trim them into balls in a more formal setting.
Mine is far from the house, so I can't take electric pruners or a chain saw to it. I sure wish it was planted somewhere other than where it is. Isn't that often the case? A couple of the branches that touched the ground have rooted, so I might transplant those and just do away with this big one, in time.
Here is a link that might be useful:
Thanks...It is not my pic (should have said that before posting it). Yes, I would like to be able to get mine trimmed up like that. It would likely take several seasons and diligence to get it that way, and to keep it that way.
Now one really could plant some bulbs under, or near the bottom of that one in the pic.
Bulb planters all agree, the more the merrier---so don't worry about planting a particular number in any particular spot of ground---put lots in....one ever width of the bulb you have and don't be counting them.
Mass planting of bulbs is always the norm.
And don't plant different colors in one area---plant one color enmasse--then do another color...
this makes for a much better sight.
Putting different colors together takes the eye off the planting --ruins the whole effect.
You know better about how much sun each area under the plantings gets....but bulbs appreciate full sun....the more the better.
Putting any plant under another and depending on the shrub to leave sufficient moisture in the ground for the bulbs...which are very shallow planted, is one way to deny them sufficient water.
But, its your wish to see the color under there...so if anything happens---
'Course all this is for consideration ...NEXT FALL

An anonymous man in his 20s who lives in Rome will soon receive a new hand, and for the first time in the world his bionic hand will be able to feel the things that it touches. The hand will be wired to the man's nervous system, in hopes that he will be able to control its movements by receiving signals from his skin cells, and that he in turn will be able to receive signals from the hand's touch sensors. The hand promises to restore the sense of touch to people who have lost limbs, and it represents a major breakthrough in the world of prosthetics.
Studies have shown that as many as half of hand amputees don't regularly use their prosthetic hands because of "less than ideal functionality, appearance, and controllability." This new bionic hand hopes to change that. The hand was developed by Silvestro Micera, of the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland, who recently conducted a four-week clinical trial for the hand.
Because the hand is attached directly to the nervous system, its wearer will be able to directly control it, making it feel more like a real hand than a prosthetic. The latest model will be attached directly to the user's arm, and sensors in the fingertips and thumb will relay messages to the brain. "It is clear that the more sensory feeling an amputee has, the more likely they will get full acceptance of that limb," Micera told the Daily Mail. "We hope that one day it will be embedded in the arm and the user will just forget it is there."

i just bought nocturne and i wanted to no is he good and what exactly should i do with him solo, jungle, etc.
Junior Member
Noc is good if played right and I guess that goes for all champs. go to Mobafire.com and look up builds people have posted. Jung Noc can be good if done right, is hard if you dont have the right build/runes
Senior Member
Noc can be borderline OP if played well. and is OP if you play normals.
Noc can lane or jungle just as well as the other. He is a very diverse champion during those phases. Most people like to jungle with him because he has one of the best ganks at level 6. This is probably the one reason that people think that jungle noc is better than laning noc.
Asuran Ninja
ok guys thanks for help so far more feedback would be nice
Generous Lover
nocturne is a better laner than most melees, but you realy should jungle him, his jungleing speed is top 3 and he can jungle continuously to level 4, 5, or 6 at high speeds, i personaly pick the jungle path to level 6 so i can gank with my ultimate.

It'd prove a particularly tight battle between Gee Atherton , so strong at the beginning of the season, and Stevie Smith, who's been on a tear of late. Here's the full video coverage of the race.

Interbike Gallery: From the Tradeshow Floor–Day 3
09.21.2013 //
Sometimes to understand what something is, you have to see what it isn't. This year Interbike is lacking the depth of weird inventions and pneumatic blonde booth babes that it has in the past. Is this a sign of the recession hitting entrepreneurial trailblazers, financial imperatives serving to separate the wheat from the chaff, or is it just that now every hopeful, desperate mastermind has focused their talents on e-bikes?

Okay, so we're at Interbike, the bike industry's once a year chance (in the US, at least) to get together in one place, kick tires, take notes, tell lies, and see who has the worst new graphics. As with any trade show worth its salt, Interbike takes place in Las Vegas, Nevada and Vegas is therefore going to be the backdrop for this short, informative guide for how not to be a total chump at Interbike.

Topping lift loads?

Re: Topping lift loads?
I recall times when I or someone else happened to be up on the cabin while flaking the main while the mainsheet was eased, just when some power boat wake comes by and rolls the boat. Loosing balance grabbing the boom, and sometimes swinging almost over the rail. Full weight of one crew member on the little topping lift.
That stress is still less than someone hardening down on the mainsheet while the topping lift is not eased. Keeping with a line that can take 1000+ lbs of load would be a good bet.
If you use the boat hard and want to get through heavy weather without incidents, oversize everything.

SAN FRANCISCO—Hersha Hospitality Trust was selected to receive NAREIT's 2013 Lodging & Resorts Leader in the Light Award for its EarthView program, the company's sustainable portfolio-wide energy use practices and sustainability initiatives.
"We are honored to be recognized for the second consecutive year as the NAREIT Lodging & Resorts Leader in the Light," stated Jay H. Shah, CEO of Hersha Hospitality Trust. "Our focus on achieving measurable, profitable results through our EarthView triple bottom line sustainability program strategically positions Hersha as a best-in-class investment option for an ever increasing number of institutional investors who weigh sustainability as part of their investment analysis."
EarthView, Hersha's sustainability program, is the internal driver of the company's success in managing and reducing its portfolio-wide energy use. Through the EarthView program, Hersha achieved reductions in energy, water and waste that lowered the company's environmental impact while producing property-level savings.
Steven A. Wechsler, NAREIT's president and CEO, recognized Hersha's industry leadership in sustainability and presented Shah with the Leader in the Light award at REITWorld 2013: NAREIT's Annual Convention for All Things REIT in San Francisco.

Technology used to be considered impersonal. You know, the idea of the "robotic mind," no human interaction. But, the reality is technology is actually very personal and becoming more so by the day. Devices are so in sync with their users, they've become the personal secretaries to the masses. This is even more true when talking connected wearables.

101 Silly Summertime Jokes
ISBN 0590425560 ¿ Children are bound to find these jokes far more hilarious than adults, but many of the jokes are better read than said because the play on words often goes over the heads of younger children. 96 pages with 101 jokes, ranging from bad to really bad ¿ just the sort of jokes little kids will find roll on the floor funny. Some of the jokes are just too difficult for really young readers to grasp, which I tested on several kids. Still, what doesn¿t draw blank stares will have them giggling.

There's a lot to blame Pitt athletic director Steve Pederson for where the discombobulated state of his football program is concerned. But at least it sounds like he's got a plan in the wake of Todd Graham's stunning departure.
And according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the first name mentioned as part of that plan is Iowa State head coach Paul Rhoads. The Post-Gazette reported Friday that Rhoads "appears to be the most coveted of the group [of potential candidates] as ... Pederson and chancellor Mark Nordenberg like and respect him and think he is an excellent football coach."
A former Panther defensive coordinator under Dave Wannstedt who spent eight seasons on the Pitt staff, Rhoads declined to speak to Pederson following Wannstedt's firing in 2010 out of loyalty to the Cyclones. But "according to two people close to Rhoads" who spoke to the Post-Gaztte, this time around Rhoads would be willing to sit down with Pitt and "likely will talk with the administration" regarding the opening.
UPDATE, 12:45 ET: Actually, you can probably forget the Rhoads talk; ISU announced Friday that Rhoads had signed a 10-year contract extension with the school.
With Rhoads presumably off the table, the focus will turn towards who the Post-Gazette reports is also on the Panthers' potential list of candidates: Ohio State assistant/2010 head coach Luke Fickell, Florida State defensive coordinator Mark Stoops, Wisconsin offensive coordinator Paul Chryst, Northern Illinois head coach Dave Doeren and former Illinois and Florida head coach Ron Zook. Pederson reportedly feels strongly enough in that pool of candidates that the school is forgoing the use of a search committee.
Fickell has reportedly already interviewed, with Chryst due to interview this Saturday. Given the upheaval around him in Columbus, Fickell may be the leading candidate until further notice.
Since: Jul 9, 2010

Report: Fickell, Chryst among Pitt candidates
I think another problem area at PITT may be the AD Steve Pederson himself. Mr. Pederson doesn't really possess that good of a record when it comes to hiring and firing of coaches. His stop as Nebraska's AD turned out to be a flop when he fired Frank Solich and hired Callahan as coach, which many feel set the Husker's program back at least 5 yrs. This is the second time Mr. Pederson has been PITT's AD, and from what I hear, many of the PITT supporters and fans have lost confidence in him.

Report: Fickell, Chryst among Pitt candidates
wow, you should really think a little harder before saying stuff like,
"put a provision into the contract (recommend 6 years) that if he tries to take another football job at any level during the term of his contract he forfeits the right to work for anyone for a period of 5 years."I'm pretty sure you couldn't keep him from working elsewhere. You could stipulate he has a buyout and repays money, but not that he has to sit out of coaching.
I think Pitts a pretty high profile job and you should definitely be looking for someone better than Zook and Fickel. Some of the Coordinators on the list are hot commodities, but it would be silly for them to jump to such a job, that seems to work for very few BCS conference teams. But at this point, I'm not really sure who else Pitt can look at. There are some successful HCs at smaller schools but no hot names that I know of like Hoke was last year. Also since they are behind other schools there really aren't too many HCs left out there that aren't losers.
Back to Tressel, I think the harder part would be getting him to take the job then actually keeping him there. I'd guess he sits out a while, learns some stuff from the NFL before trying for another HC job. I think once he wants to come back he will find a school where he can settle down and stay awhile, thus if Pitt could really sway him back this year, I think he'd stay there a while.

Piece of Cake: How to Decorate Your Pots Like a Pastry Chef
Slip trailing is a great way to add decoration to pots. Most ceramic artists use a fairly liquid slip when slip trailing. But after watching a baking competition on television Sharon Romm started experimenting with using thicker slip to decorate pots like a pastry chef would decorate a cake. She shares her results in today's post.- Jennifer Harnetty, editor.
Two Simple Techniques for Adding Relief Texture and Imagery to Your PotteryI have seen many potters use tar paper as a pattern making tool, and have seen stencils used to create colorful designs with underglazes or glazes. But in today's post, they are used slightly differently. Ben Carter explains how tar paper can be cut into a shape or pattern and then pressed into soft clay creating low relief. He also shows how to use stencils to make low-relief with thick slip.- Jennifer Harnetty, editor.
How to Use Slips of Varying Thickness to Create Texture
There are lots of ways to create texture on pottery, the most obvious being stamping the malleable surface. But Lisa Naples creates beautiful random texture on her work with slips of varying consistencies. In today's post, an excerpt from her our compilation DVD Handbuilding: Texture and Surface, she demonstrates how her thin, thick, and thicker slips can build up different textures creating lovely surfaces.- Jennifer Harnetty, editor.
Using Slips, Sgraffito, and Inlay Techniques to Create a New Twist on Oribe
Oribe ware is a type of ceramics that originated in the 16th century and is known for its copper green glaze and bold patterns. Ben Krupka is a fan of the experimental and playful feel of Oribe. In today's post, Ben explains how he uses slips, wax resist, sgraffito and inlay techniques to create his own interpretation of this historical style.- Jennifer Harnetty, editor.
Connecting the Dots: Slip Dotting and Feathering
While in graduate school, Elizabeth Sparks became interested in traditional slipware pottery. So she tore through books and magazines to learn about the technique. She combined that research with an interest in using local raw materials. In today's post, she shares her slip dotting and feathering techniques.- Jennifer Harnetty, editor.
Less is More: A Minimalist Approach to Glazing Ceramics
Karen Swyler takes a subtle approach to her glazing, juxtaposing raw white porcelain
surfaces with ribbons of shiny clear-glazed lines or small accents of
color. Today, in an excerpt from an upcoming Ceramics Monthly profile, she explains her less-is-more glazing technique.
An Easy Way to Add Screen Printing to Your Decorating Repertoire
I love the look of screen printed images but I avoided trying screen printing on my clay work until I discovered a super easy way to make the screens using the sun as an "exposure unit." Now I have been having lots of fun experimenting with the technique. In today's post, an excerpt from her DVD Form, Pattern, and Underglaze, Meredith Host demonstrates how easy it is to make these screens and get started with screen printing on clay.- Jennifer Harnetty, editor.
Festive Flower Bricks: Coil-Built Forms Fit For a Party
Today, in an excerpt from the November/December 2010 issue of Pottery Making Illustrated, Arthur Halversen takes us through the coil building process he uses to construct his flower brick forms. He also shares his recipe for the frosting-like glaze he uses – the icing on the cake, as they say. – Jennifer Harnetty, editor.
Pottery Video of the Week: How to Make an Inverse Laser Decal
In this excerpt from his new DVD Ceramic Decals: New Ideas and Techniques, Justin Rothshank takes us step by step through the process of creating and applying an inverse laser decal, including the photoshop portion.
Defining Space with Slip Trailing, Sgraffito, and Underglaze
Ben Carter thinks about design at every stage of the game when making pots. When he is throwing and altering, he is specifically considering the decoration that he will apply later.
In today's video, an excerpt from his brand spanking new DVD Design for the Soft Surface: Throwing, Handbuilding, and Slip Decorating, Ben shows how he uses slip trailing, sgraffito, and underglaze painting in his work, and explains the thought process in deciding where the marks go. Though Ben works with earthenware at the low end of the firing range, but the colored underglaze technique can be used at any temperature range with a suitable transparent overglaze.- Jennifer Harnetty, editor.

Tucson--Jerry Slagle had a bad feeling about what happened recently in his home on Tucson's northwest side. A woman who appeared to be 18 or 19 years old showed up, selling magazines.
Slagle told the News 4 Tucson Investigators, "She was convincing that she was doing this for college tuition, which I know is really tough to get into college and I'd really like to help."
Slagle, a 62-year old retired construction company owner, ordered 26 issues of "Nascar Illustrated" and gave the woman $27.50 in cash. He was given an invoice stating he had 10 days to pay the rest of the subscription cost, $25.00.
Slagle said, "She was all nice and easygoing before the money changed hands. After the money changed hands, she just wanted to get going. She gave me one piece of paper, one invoice, that's it, no return envelope and she said, 'God bless' when she left, and that was it."
The invoice came from a company called "Independent Contractor's Service," with an address in Delray Beach, Fl. The News 4 Tucson Investigators researched the company, and the reviews are not good.
In addition to dozens of complaints online, the firm has an "F" rating with the Better Business Bureau. The BBB says it's received 82 complaints about Independent Contractor's Service over the past three years.
Nick LaFleur of the BBB of Southern Arizona told the News 4 Tucson Investigators, "We've had a lot of complaints that were sent to the BBB in Florida, where the consumers alleged that there's usually a college-age student came to their house, gave an emotional plea about money and then a lot of times people would report not being able to get in contact with the company after they left to try to get a refund in the three day cooling-off period."
Independent Contractor's Service did not return calls from the News 4 Tucson Investigators.
The BBB says before you order a magazine from a door-to-door salesperson, you should do the following:
-Ask where they're from. It's usually better to deal with a local company.
-Get the terms and conditions in writing.
-Ask for information about the company the seller is working for, then check out the firm with the BBB, and call any phone numbers the company lists.
-Consider subscribing directly from the publisher. Given the amount of fraudulent activity in the door-to-door magazine sales business, it may make more sense.
Jerry Slagle says he's learned a lesson from this: "I would look into it (the company) more before the money changes hands."
Slagle says he's not going to pay the remaining $25 to complete his magazine order, because the thinks the subscription won't start even if he does pay. There are many good fund-raisers that college kids are dong by selling magazines and other products door to door. But again, you should always research the company before paying up.
Remember, if you have a story you'd like us to investigate, please email us at email@example.com, or call our tipline, (520) 955-4444.

Glad to be the first review. This is a new product from Clarins this summer. It protects face from the sun (SPF40) and environmental pollution. I normally don't use sunscreen of such a high SPF since I have combo/oily skin prone to breakouts. But I swim alot in the summer and I really don't want to end up with wrinkled skin in my 20's. This sunscreen is perfect! It is feather light, gives matte finish, goes great under foundation and did not give me any breakouts! Nice light scent. Though it's quite expensive for such a small bottle...Oh well, I'd rather pay $$ now than have dried up fish scale skin later...

While this is a good product, put it down and buy DHC's new Anti-wrinkle white sunscreen SPF 25 instead. It's the same exact thing and it's only $23 instead of Clarins' $36.50, which when you think about it, is absolutely ridiculous for 1.06 ounces. Plus DHC's sunscreen is on sale right now for just $17...(thru 6/30/05)you can't beat that! It comes in the same type bottle (it's 1 ounce)has the same feel and consistency, the same active ingredient; titanium dioxide, and also has zinc oxide. It also has vitamin E, alpha arbutin (for skin lightening) it IS NOT greasy AT ALL and goes on completely matte and invisible, your skin is ready for make-up. It is SPF 25 instead of Clarins 40 but from what I've read and been told once you get over SPF 15 it becomes redundant. I urge you to at least try DHC before shelling out $36.50 for the same thing in Clarins. Let me know what you think!

I've been using it for two weeks. It does not break me out so far. Unlike other sunscreen products, this one make me feel like to wear it every day since it's very light and non-oily. Thank you for those great reviews.

I agree with all these reviews. I was shocked at the super tiny bottle I picked up at Sephora (despite reading about this on MUA) but bought it b/c of the great reviews and am very happy I did.
I have combo/oily skin but it can get dehydrated because of my acne medication. Anyway, this goes great over my moisturizer, has not broken me out (and most things do), and doesn't give my skin that slick oiliness that other suncreens do. I had been using Remede's Translucent UV coat, but realized it probably wasn't providing as much protection as I should use. But I liked the fact it was tinted because I don't wear foundation or powder for the most part. (I do hate Clinique's city block because of the oiliness, broke me out, plus the tint was way too much). So now, I mix the Remede with the Clarins on days I want a tint or just use the Clarins on its own. For right now, this appears to be an HG everyday sunscreen (definitely would not use this if I were going to beach or hiking or something). Worth the bucks.

This is the first sunscreen I've used on my face that doesn't break me out or cause an oil slick on my face. It is great for people like me who are in and out all day. Will definitely repurchase.
The sales girl did tell me, though, not to sunbathe in this product, despite its SPF 40. She said that it's not meant for intensive exposure to the sun, but rather for daily use.

This is a very nice product. I got a sample from the Clarins counter in Nordstrom (they have tons of ready-made samples of their products, btw! pick up a few!). I may buy the full size, but I am going to try to find something cheaper first. The price is the only negative thing I see for this though. It has a great feel, no pore-cloggers, and is broad spectrum. Don't forget to shake it really well before use. It is an all-mineral sunscreen; therefore, you won't get the protection you need if the titanium dioxide doesn't get mixed throughout the product (it has a tendency to settle to the bottom).

this is the best chemical free sunscreen I ever used. I am allergic to chemical sunscreens so I can only use sunscreens with titanium dioxide or zinc oxide.this is oil free, very lightweight and doesn't leave a white cast on the skin. I love this product! I was using clinique super city block before I discovered this. the clinique one was thick and sometimes caused breakouts and was tinted so it felt like I was wearing foundation. this new sunscreen from clarins is the answer to my complaints.

D.C. eyes new jail as part of 'Justice Center Campus'
- Michael Neibauer
- Staff Reporter- Washington Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
The District is weighing the development of a consolidated public safety campus that would house a new jail and police and fire training facilities.
The Department of General Services issued a request for proposals Monday for a contractor to inventory the District's 80 public safety buildings, develop a 10-year public safety master plan, and conduct a feasibility study for a new "Justice Center Campus."
The RFP makes clear that "time is of the essence" — that it wants an "immediate preliminary assessment of the viability of a Justice Center Campus" to house a "new jail as well as the training facilities for both" the Metropolitan Police Department and Fire and Emergency Medical Services.
Why the rush? D.C. officials contacted Tuesday couldn't say.
The chosen consultant — bids are due by Dec. 21 — will identify the programs to be housed at the center, determine gross square footage requirements, analyze the massing and location of such a campus, review three unnamed prospective sites and report any "fatal flaw" considerations, such as extraordinary costs or political challenges.
The existing Central Detention Facility is located at 1901 D St. SE, a half mile from the Stadium-Armory Metro Station on the Reservation 13 campus — also known as the Hill East Waterfront. FEMS trains at 4600 Shepard Parkway SW, while the MPD's Maurice T. Turner Jr. Academy is located at 4665 Blue Plains Drive SW.
Many of the District's public safety facilities, including the 36-year-old jail, are deteriorating. A new Central Detention Facility, some D.C. officials say, would be more cost effective than piling money year after year into its rehabilitation.
