Morning take: Ravens wide receivers
By James Walker
Here are the most interesting stories Tuesday in the AFC North:
The Baltimore Ravens' receivers ranked
last in the division
in yards after catch.
Morning take:
This is a big part of any offense, and Anquan Boldin, Derrick Mason and T.J. Houshmandzadeh averaged
3.0 YAC per reception. Adding a speedy deep threat will help in this category.
Pending free-agent running back Cedric Benson says he's
willing to return
to the Cincinnati Bengals.
Morning take:
Benson had issues with former offensive coordinator Bob Bratkowski. But it appears new OC Jay Gruden wants to utilize Benson more in hisĀswitch to the West Coast offense.
The Cleveland Browns are getting ready for a
big week of pro days
Morning take:
Cleveland will get its final look at prospects up close before next month's NFL draft, as the team narrows its choices at No. 6 overall.
Here is more
on the Pittsburgh Steelers' hire of defensive backs coach Carnell Lake.
Morning take:
Lake was a veryĀsmartĀplayer for Pittsburgh, and the Steelers believe that will translate into the coaching ranks.

Best Off-Road tire ever. Simply cannot hurt this tire, volcanic, cactus, logs, boulders, deep sand, it handles everything and laughs. A real pain to install yourself just because of how stiff this tire it. I already bought two complete sets just in case Dunlop quits making it, best Front & Rear tire I have ever had. Even at 92mph on dirt roads, its smooth and stable, street use, no problem!!Read All Reviews

As Chrysler, Ford and GM were having great commercial success in the U.S. with their minivans, the fastest and perhaps most cost-effective way to compete for a piece of this growing market was to adapt their highly successful and well-proven SR5 pickup truck platform. While the 1988 Toyota Van is a mid-engined van, it's not intentional. It's a clever adaptation. The Van's box-body was wrapped around the SR5, putting the driver's and passenger's seat directly on top of the engine bay. This adaptation creates a number of unique features, such as flipping the driver's seat up to check the oil.
1988 Toyota Van Specs
Toyota threw its hat in the increasingly popular minivan ring in 1984. Oddly, the their first minivan didn't have an official name, but was often referred to as the "Toyota Cargo Van." It was developed around the Toyota SR-5 pickup truck engine and chassis. Toyota continued to make the Cargo Van through 1989, when it was replaced by the Toyota Previa for 1990.
A Unique Adaptation
SR5 Roots
Because the engine and chassis of the 1988 Toyota Cargo Van come from an SR5 Toyota pickup truck, all the fundamental specifications are the same. The base model 2.0-liter, 22R engine is an inline-four, four-cylinder, water-cooled four-stroke. With a bore of 92 mm, a stroke of 89 mm and a compression ratio of 9.3:1, it made a modest 96 horsepower at 4,800 rpm.
In 1988, the Toyota "Cargo Van" came in three models: DLX, LE and LE 4x4. Each model was available with additional factory upgrades. Upgrades included electronic door-locks, power windows, power seats, sunroof, air conditioning and automatic transmission. A coveted model is the LE 4x4, as it was one of very few lightweight, 4x4 vans ever manufactured.
Notable Features
With its boxy design and wedge-nose, the Toyota Cargo Van was received as being unusual and has since developed a modest cult following. The engine and chassis are among the most dependable engines made -- by any motor company. The additional drag of the Van's poor aerodynamics pushed the limits of its modest power-plant, but it was adequate with the five-speed transmission. However, it was underpowered for an automatic. Few vans have offered the fuel economy, longevity and utility of Toyota's first-generation minivans, including the 1988 model.

Autoblog reader Ed sent us this screen shot from the United States Patent and Trademark Office, showing that General Motors has apparently trademarked the name Riviera for use on automobiles. It's no secret that the Riviera name resonates well with anyone familiar with Buick's history, and since the production coupe's death in 1999, the name Riviera has only been resurrected once for the 2007 concept car you see here.

OIVILION FQNES AND WILLIAM J. BAULI EU, OF BRIDG EPOBB'OONNL iPRo vEMEN T a FLEXIBLESHAFTS.
v r :Speciiieation forming partof Iietters Patent No. mnaeaaated May 16, 1876;
. a 'April 28,1876.
To all whom it may concern:
Be itknown that we, GIVILION Forms and WILLIAM J. BAULIEU, both of Bridgeport, in
the county of Fairlield and State of Connecti-- from dental engines to the hand piece or tool,
and from other motors to the machinery or de- 1 vices to be operated. Y
Our objjects are so to construct such shafts of this class as are made of separate springcoils as. to increase theirefiiciency, improve their appearance, add to their strength, less-' on the friction between them" and their enveloping sheaths or'easings, and particularly so to construct the" shaft that it may be reversed at the will o f the operator without unwinding, or losing any of its strength or power, and run equally wellwhen rotating in either direction. Another object we have in view in the construction of our shafts is the formation of sheaths or casings'fOrthe shafts, of construction similar to. that of the shafts themselves.
Our invention consists in the construction of the shaft of thin flat strips or ribbons .of spring-steel, whereby we are enabled to make a shaft which isvery flexible, and at the same :time very strong.
Our invention also consists in a sheath or that of the shaft which it envelops.
. Ourinvention also consists of the combination "of; an inner shaft composed of coiled strips or wires, and ano'uter shaft, sheath, or
casing capable 'of being used asa sheath simply, or as a shaft.
Our invention further consists of a hexible shaft, formed. by, combining three -or more coils, whether round, flat, or of other suitable outline, wound in opposite directions, whereby is secured-an automatic expansion and contraction of the coils, adapting the shaftto operate in either direction in which it may be run, thus rendering the shaft capable of heing quickly reversed, and giving it much of the solidity'of a straight shaft of unyielding back at the'ends of the shaft.
, v l application filed In the accompanying drawings,*Figure1 representsa longitudinal view, partly in sec. t'on,of avportion of our shaft of threocoils, which is shown as broken off at different points, to more clearly indicate the construction of the shaft; and Fig.2 a longitudinal view on a reduced "scale of the shaft, with a portion of, its enveloping shaft, casing, or sheath in seetion. 3
A flexible shaft, A, is composed. of thin flat strips or ribbons a, of spring-steel, coiled, as represented Ill, the drawings, to form smooth-surfaced close-jointed coils, or it may be made of a single strip, turned or'bent The strips of the adjacent coils are coiledtin opposite directions, as shown, for a Well-known purpose,- .and the coils may be three or more in number,
as desired. 1
The twisting-strain onthe coils of the shaft, when in operation, is in the direction of the greatest strength, or in the direction of the width of the ribbons or strips a,-of which the spring-coils'are composed? It will thus be seen that by using such strips not only is the strength of the shaft increased, but there is a saving of metal over-those "shafts made of round wire, as the flat strips may be made quite thin. Theshaft is much'smoother on the'snrface than one made of round wire, and is, therefore, less liable to become en tangled by catching in the clothes of the operator, or in other objects it may come in contact with. Friction, caused by contact between the shaft and its casing, (wheno e is used,-) 'is also de-- creased. The strips 0 steel being flat, and being necessarily wound obliquely across each other, keep their place, and the coils have no f tendency to work into each other, 'as the coilsof'round wire do. H v

coils and prevent untwisting or uncoiling. It; 7
isobvious that the shaft-coil ends may-be welded together like. the sheath-coils, or the sheath may have'collars or short sleeves on shown in the drawings, in turning to the right the inner and outer coils contract while the center coil expands or partially unwinds against the outer coil,and in turning to the left the inner and outer coils expand, and the center" coil contracts against the inner coil. Thus ;we make a self -adjusting shaft with much of the rigidity of a solid shaft. Three or more round wires may be used instead of the flat strips to make a reversible shaft; but we prefer the flat strips because of their su-' periority for the purpose over the round wire.
The sheath B may be used as a drivingshaft as well as the internal shaft A, toenable two tools or parts of a machine to be driven in opposite directions from the compound shaft thus formed; or, when considerable power is needed to do the work re'quired, the sheath and shaft may be united to a common tool or machine, and to the engine or motor, so as to revolve together.
The connection of the shaft with the engine, and with the tool or device to be operated, may be made in .any of the usual ways, and
the tubular shaft or sheath B, when used sim- I ply as a sheath or casing, is suitably secured in place at its ends in any of the well-known ways, so as to remain stationary during the rotation of the shaft 'A. In dental practice it is very important that the direction of ro-' tation of the shaft should be readily reversible, in order to protect the soft parts of the mouth in certain positions in which the'operator is compelled to work. Out three'coil shaft, (whether of round wire or flat strips therefore, has a great advantage over those of the usual construction, intended to run only in one direction. It is also much stronger than the flexible shafts as usually heretofore made, and with it we can drive a tool or use it for work that they are incapable of.
We are aware that -two coils of round wire have been formed into a flexible shaft by being wound in opposite directions. Such a shaft, however, is not reversible, and we do not claim such construction. We are not aware that any flexible shaft prior to our invention had been composed of any number of flat steel strips, as described, or of three or more coils of round wire or flat strips coiled in opposite directions.
We claim as of our own invention- 1. A flexible shaft, constructed, as hereinbefore described, of spring-coils, composed of flat metallic strips or ribbons, coiled in reverse directions.
- 2. The sheath or casing, constructed, as hereg inbefore described, of spring-coils composed of flat metallic strips or ribbons coiled in reverse directions, and adapted to envelop the shaft.
3. Theoombination, substantially as herein before set forth, of the shaft composed of reverse coils, and the similarly constructed enveloping-sheath.
4. The hereinbefore-described flexible shaft, composed of three or more coils, with the ad jaceut coils wound in opposite directions, to render the shaft reversible.
In testimony whereof we have hereifnto subscribed our names.

Detecting whether banks' leverage is indeed procyclical is relevant to support the view that booms and crises may be reinforced by some sort of supply side financial accelerator, whilst finding a plausible explanation of banks' behaviour is crucial to trace the road for a sensible reform of financial regulation and managers' incentives. By analyzing a large sample of European banks, we show that procyclical leverage appears to be well entrenched in the behaviour of those banks for which investment banking prevails over the traditional commercial banking activity.

Dwayne Johnson has been publicly teasing the idea of starring in a (still not officially unnannounced and dated) DC Comics' Shazam movie, but he couldn't decide if he wanted to play the heroic Shazam or the villainous Black Adam (both characters have powers like superstrength, intellect, flight and so on).
Well, now we know who interests the muscleman more. Johnson has confirmed on Twitter that he will play Black Adam in an upcoming DC Comics movie. We don't know what that movie is or when it will come out, but it's probably a safe assumption that Black Adam will not be getting his own solo movie but rather be a part of the planned Shazam movie. Darren Lemke (Jack the Giant Slayer, Goosebumps) is writing.
Here's a pic of Shazam (in red) fighting Black Adam while Superman looks on.
It's a role the actor has been tied to since 2007. In fact, here's a video of the Rock on MTV promoting Southland Tales saying that he was about to have a meeting with director Pete Segal (who, as far as we know, is not currently attached to this new movie) about taking on the role fans had been dying to see him play.
"Kneel at his feet or get crushed by his boot." My honor to become.. #BlackAdam #TheAntiHero #DCComics pic.twitter.com/Qk55eNf3R7
— Dwayne Johnson (@TheRock) September 3, 2014
Are you happy Johnson has chosen the dark side instead of the hero? And who do you want to suit up as Shazam?

HAVE: Mystery Envelope
bev_w(6a)January 21, 2009
Yesterday I received by post an envelope with seeds for Enkianthus campanulatus and Rhododendron minus, from S. B. in Antigonish NS., with no enclosure.
I've scoured my computer and I just can't figure out why I received this nice prezzie. Is this a very belated secret Santa?
More likely it's a trade, and I'd like to honour my half of the trade, but what am I supposed to send?
Maybe I should have another morning cup of coffee and wait for the obvious answer to reveal itself to my addled mind.
In the meantime, would the kind sender of these seeds please stand up?
- Bev

In the Spotlight: Dirk Burghartz, Four Seasons Hotel, Washington, D.C.
- Emily Mekinc
- Assistant Producer- Washington Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
This week's edition of "In the Spotlight" features Dirk Burghartz, general manager of the Four Seasons Hotel, Washington, D.C.
Burghartz previously was general manager of the Four Seasons Hotel Houston. In his new role, he will manage a staff of more than 450 employees at the 222-room hotel in Georgetown.
Want to be considered for a future "In the Spotlight" feature? Submit your announcements here or email email@example.com.
And be sure to check out People on the Move for information on who's moving where in the Washington-area business community.
Biggest way your day will change in your new role: As a general manager, my role will not change; however, arriving in a new city I will spend most of my day during the first few months meeting all of our employees, greeting all of our in-hotel guests, restaurant patrons, Fitness Club members, sales and catering clients — practically anyone who comes to the hotel. I will also be meeting other industry professionals and Washington's movers and shakers.
If you could trade places with one person for a day, who would it be? Rick Smith, the general manager of the Houston Texans. I always wondered what it would be like to run such an organization.
Favorite vacation spot/place to travel: Maui, Hawaii
What's the most important thing you look for in a restaurant when you go out to eat? Besides the obvious of intuitive service and great food, I look for a restaurant that has a fun atmosphere, great ambiance and a lively crowd.
What's the most important thing you look for in a hotel when you travel? Smiling staff and cleanliness.
Favorite place to do business: With guests, the lobby is the perfect place to have impromptu conversations. With my staff, I always like hallway conversations in the back-of-house corridors.
Emily Mekinc produces video and writes for the Business Journal.
