Tips on Buying Snowboard Pants
Most snowboarders want their snowboard pants to do three things: Keep them warm, keep them dry and make them look good. While the latter is a matter of personal taste, the first two requirements can easily be fulfilled. Be sure to choose snowboard pants or bibs that have the necessary features to make your day on the slopes a good one.
How to Choose Ski Pants
A good pair of ski pants can mean the difference between a fun, comfortable day on the mountain or a cold and wet skiing experience. While many snow pants are marketed as waterproof, knowing what to look for when choosing ski pants will help you find quality men's pants and bibs and women's pants and bibs. You'll reap the rewards next time you hit the slopes in your new ski clothing.
How to Choose Ski Clothing
A lot of personal choice comes into play when choosing ski clothing. Ski and snowboard clothing can range from a long-sleeve, one-piece outfit or ski bibs over a shirt, to a two-piece matching outfit consisting of ski pants and a ski jacket. Personal style, however, should not trump comfort. Ensure a fun, comfortable day on the slopes by choosing ski apparel that is easy to move in and keeps you warm and dry when skiing.
How to Choose Snow Pants
Everyone has different needs when shopping for snow pants or bibs. Some skiers and riders look for snow pants in bold colors and patterns to stand out on the slopes; others think snow pants are supposed to keep you comfortable. Fortunately, it's easy to find snow pants that can do both.
Women's Pants Buying Guide
Women's clothing options have changed over the years. Today's women's fashions include pant styles for almost every occasion, from a morning jog to the evening cocktail hour. With all the choices available, more and more women prefer the comfort and tailored sophistication of pants. Overstock.com offers a selection of women's pants to match any occasion; this women's pants buying guide includes some basic information to help you wade through the options.
How To Care For and Iron Dress Pants
Proper care of dress pants can extend wear time and maximize the investment you've made in your clothing. Knowing how to care for and iron both women's dress pants will keep them looking their best and ensure that every pair of pants in your closet is ready to wear at any time. Caring for your dress pants takes only a few extra minutes every day and can reduce the amount of money you spend on repairs or special cleaning.
Best Women's Pants for the Weekend
After a week of wearing professional clothes for work, dressing casually and comfortably for the weekend just requires a few pairs of women's pants. This does not mean you have to skimp on style. Whether you want to have a dinner out with friends or simply need to run errands, there are plenty of comfortable wardrobe options that do not involve T-shirts and sweatpants. Stay stylish during the weekend by choosing women's pants that fit and pairing them with accessories, blouses and shoes you already own. Wear khaki pants for almost every occasion. Khaki pants are perfect for weekend wear, especially if you want an alternative to jeans. Khaki pants are casual but still appear stylish and come in a variety of lengths. Cropped khaki pants hit at about mid-calf, and capris fall just below the knee. The most flattering style is straight-leg because it gives khakis the appearance of being well-fitted and works with any type of shoe. Find the perfect pair of jeans. Jeans are the ultimate pants for the weekend. Comfortable and versatile, women's jeans come in a variety of washes and colors to go with anything in the wardrobe. Cuts like wide-leg, low-rise, boot-cut and straight-leg allow women of any size and body shape to find a pair of jeans that fit well. While women's jeans may be considered casual, pairing them with heels or wedge shoes and a loose-fitting blouse or sweater can create a more formal or put-together look. To keep jeans casual on the weekend, pair them with flats and a knitted top. Stay comfortable in velour pants. If you prefer to lounge the weekend away or just run a few errands, velour pants are soft and can be worn year-round. Velour pants often come in sets with zip-up hoodies, giving you a simple option for weekend wear. These pants come in a variety of colors, often include pockets and offer a simple drawstring waistband for comfort. Velour pants are also great for working out, so you can easily wear them throughout the day before a trip to the gym or outdoor activity.

Snowboarding Buying Guide
Since it began in the 1970s, snowboarding has grown to become one of the most popular winter sports, even matching skiing in popularity. One of the appeals of snowboarding is that, for some people, it's easier to become proficient at than skiing. Nevertheless, snowboarding involves much more than just strapping a snowboard to your feet, and snowboard equipment can be confusing for beginners. This snowboarding buying guide is designed to help you decide what you need before you head to the slopes.
How to Choose Ski Boots
Although you might think that skis are your most important piece of ski equipment, ski boots have more to do with performance than the skis or bindings. Ski boots that aren't right for your feet can prevent the transfer of pressure to the ski and contribute to a lack of control. While your boots will never be as comfortable as sneakers, the correct boot will be a lot more comfortable to wear for a full day on the slopes.

Lee seeking third win against Lynn, Cardinals
The Phillies' lineup has gotten the message.
Heading into Friday night's game, the Phillies heard the criticism about their lineup's slow production as they entered the night averaging 3.44 runs per game (26th in baseball). Philadelphia answered with a five-run outburst to start the first, before topping St. Louis, 8-2,in seven innings in Friday's rain-shortened game.
The Phillies posted their most runs since April 10, and if they can repeat that sort of production Saturday, starter Cliff Lee won't need to be the cure-all that he has been for them all season.
In Lee's first two starts, he backed up the Phillies' subpar offense in a 2-0 win against the Braves, and then in an 8-3 victory outings, while the Phillies' lineup combined for a .279 batting average.
St. Louis counters with Lance Lynn, who earned a no-decision in his only career matchup with the Phillies last year. Lynn gave up four earned runs on four hits through five innings in that game, and he's struggled in two of his first three starts this season. The right-hander has pitched six innings only once, while posting the worst ERA among Cards starters at 5.40.
Lynn labored his last time out, relying heavily on his fastball to allow four earned runs over five innings against the Reds.
Phillies: Howard sits
• It's no secret that Ryan Howard has struggled against left-handers this season, and opposing managers have taken advantage. Howard has a .604 on-base-plus-slugging percentage against left-handers from 2011-13, but Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said that wasn't the reason he sat out Friday night. Howard did not play because he has tightness in his right groin, but Manuel said it came at a convenient time. "This is a good time, gives me a chance to sit him down," Manuel said.
• After becoming just the fourth NL team since 1935 to play four consecutive games without a walk, the Phillies snapped their streak Friday with two walks off the Cards' Jaime Garcia.
• The Phillies enter Saturday's game with the second-worst walk total (36); only the Cubs have fewer (32).
Cardinals: No bullpen changes announced
• Cards manager Mike Matheny is playing it by ear with regard to his struggling bullpen. St. Louis' relievers have the highest opposition batting average in the National League.
"We're not making any statements one way or another as to who we use where," said Matheny earlier this week. "We'll stay consistent with it. We're just going to have to see every night; that's just how it is going to be for a while."
• Before the Cards' opener with the Phillies, Matheny was confident in Matt Carpenter's ability from the plate.
"He has really shown an ability to have tough at-bats, especially when you are going up against a tough left-hander like a [Cole] Hamels," Matheny said.
Carpenter hasn't been able to translate that ability in the leadoff spot so far against Philadelphia. The left-hander has gone 0-for-6 against the Phillies this season.
• Even though Yadier Molina went 3-for-4 Thursday, Matheny decided to rest his Gold Glove catcher and start Tony Cruz. Matheny noted before the game that knowing when to rest his top catcher is always a challenge.
"There never is a good day to get [Molina] a rest even though we have a lot of confidence in Tony," Matheny said. "We do need to get him in there."
Cruz was 0-for-3 on the night with one strikeout in the Cards' loss.
Worth noting
• Friday's win marked the first time the Phillies have scored a run before the sixth inning since April 10.
• Lee is due for another strong outing for the Phillies Saturday, as he's performed well against the Cardinals over his 12-year career. Lee is 3-2 against the Cards, earning a 2.44 ERA in 44 1/3 innings.

Tom Wallace Special

Tom Wallace SpecialG'day All,
Well I have been bitten well and truly by the resto bug after doing my first one, a Speedwell Rover seen here http://www.bicycles.net.au/forums/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=45479 No where as good as some of the bikes I see done by the members here but I've done a Ladies Speedwell to match the Rover, another Men's Speedwell, I just finished a 50s Ladies Speedwell and I am starting on a MS 2 Star Ladies. I did say I was bitten by the bug. In the process of finding bits and pieces I spotted an old 26in Tom Wallace Special on Fleabay. It was identical to the one I had as a young bloke growing up in Brisbane. Dad purchased it from Tom Wallace on Lutwyche Road, Lutwyche if my memory serves me right. So I just had to buy it, although it was in Brisbane. My son picked it up and I'll bring it back to Sydney after Christmas. In the mean time I contacted Idrcycles here to see if I could source a set of decals from him and he pointed out that the seat tube decal is not the same as the ones he's seen before. So any input from the subject matter experts on here would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Cheers, Ken
Re: Tom Wallace SpecialHey mate yeah I just purchased one my self but in green has the same decals as yours except the down tube has a big "special on it . Would you be able to tell me the number on your seat post clamp ? Mines v837 and I'm trying to establish an age . But I thought they had the same decals on the seat post tube . Sorry I'm not much help but she's a nice old rig.

Re: Tom Wallace Specialpre-1642. i know this because there is no tassie on the headtube
Re: Tom Wallace SpecialDidn't Tasmania exist after 1901 (that was the year it became an Independant State of Australia), so prior to that I think it was part of Victoria, so you must be out in your dates munga, it must be pre-1901.
Re: Tom Wallace Special
pre -1642 would make it a Thom Wallacejiuwhuizen.
Re: Tom Wallace Special
ah, but the island of van diemans land existed before 1901. i see no tasmania on that headtube, indicating that it never existed when the frame was built.
Re: Tom Wallace SpecialI think what you have there is an Austral rejuvenated and repainted by Tom Wallace at some point.
Cheers Richard
Re: Tom Wallace SpecialThis is the 'normal' seat tube decal, Typhoon Ken's is the first one i've seen with the headtube decal on the seat tube as well.
EDIT: I knew i had seen those lugs somewhere before Richard! When man invented the bicycle he reached the peak of his attainments- Elizabeth West.
Re: Tom Wallace Special
I haven't got the bike yet, I'm in Sydney and it's in my son's garage in Brisbane. The limited pictures I have shows a number on the drive side dropout 12741. Nice theory about Tassie but I reckon it's just the politically incorrectness of leaving it off so they could fit the mainland on there at a decent size (just no room for Tassie). At what time did Malvern Star drop Stars and Swan their Swans from their headtubes. At a guess Tom Wallace was just imitating them with the Australia stampings. It has an integrated headset but braised on seat stays so 50s-60s, I reckon the bike I had as a kid in the early 70s was the same colour but can't remember the headtube. Thanks for the thoughts so far.
Re: Tom Wallace SpecialAs Richard said, it's an Austral bike, they were the ones who had those headtube lugs, and at some stage Tom Wallace has done a respray on it. It was very common back in the day, Cecil Walker in Melbourne is one example.
I don't know much about Austral but i have seen a few old rims and cottered cranks that were stamped Austral, whether it's the same maker or not i don't know. When man invented the bicycle he reached the peak of his attainments- Elizabeth West.
Re: Tom Wallace SpecialI did say I needed help from the Subject Matter experts, good on you Richard. I found this thread and yep it's an Austral http://www.bicycles.net.au/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5856.
If it was good enough for Tom then when she gets the treatment it will be good enough for me so I will keep it as a Special. The bike has a story and I don't even have it yet. Thanks all. Ken
Re: Tom Wallace SpecialAustral frame number 12741.
I agree that the frame is an Austral, repainted and re-equipped by Tom Wallace. The frame has French ends, first seen in Australia in about 1929, and used by many of the major brands in their road racing frames from then until the late 1930's. They were still occasionally used in road frames right up until about 1950. The 'French' ends were shown in Malvern Star catalogues for road racing models from 1929 until 1936/37. Assuming it is an Austral from the Malvern Star factory, and assuming that it was made for 27" wheels, not 28", the frame is probably from the 1935 to 1937 period. Most of the other parts look like 1960's, so that may be when the repaint was done. The chainwheel and cranks may be earlier, and if you are lucky, will have a date code on them. Interestingly, I have an Austral frame in my collection, with the same lugs, but 'club' ends, frame number 12682. They were possibly made in the same period? It will be interesting to get some better pictures later on so we can compare the two. Warren
Re: Tom Wallace Special
Sorry - off topic, I think we need to re-study Australian history. The first European settlement in Australia was in Sydney, followed by Hobart, other parts of Van Diemens Land were then settled (including Launceston). A John Batman and others departed Launceston in the 1830s to settle the Melbourne area. So really, the Melbourne area should be seen for what it is - part of Tassie's north island. Tassie missing from the map - don't mention the 1982 commonwealth games... LG = Low Gear
Re: Tom Wallace SpecialWhich leads me to comment on my ongoing search for one of the rare 'Tasman' bikes, supposedly made from just after the first world war until about 1940. These had head lugs with maps of Tasmania in them, where a Star, Swan, Australia map etc would be on Mainland/mainstream brands.
I have been told by the old stagers that these bikes had a fancy seat bar decal with a map of Tasmania in it, but the rest of Australia was left off, as there was not enough space in the panel for the Mainland, and it would have upset the delicate balance of the artwork. I dont know how true this is. Has anyone seen one of these bikes, or have one for sale? Even a photograph would do at this stage. Warren
Re: Tom Wallace SpecialProbably not exactly what you're looking for Warren, as it's missing the Tasmania lugs, but this is one of my frames and appears to be from a similar era.
I have seen a frame with those lugs, but for the life of me can't think where. LG = Low Gear
Re: Tom Wallace SpecialGood Stuff. Thanks for all the replies, I was trying to identify the decals and ended up with a different bike!.. As soon as I pick her up I'll take some better pics and get them posted up.
Cheers, Ken
Re: Tom Wallace Special i just bought a blue tom wallace special and i am going to restore it can anyone point me in the right direction i would post pic but not very computer savey

Re: Tom Wallace SpecialHey Deviljack. Boy you dug this one up, the bike is still at my son's place up in Brissy untouched. Have a look at this thread here, it should help you out. viewtopic.php?t=76629

The Damned United
Set in 1960s and 1970s England, "The Damned United" tells the confrontational and darkly humorous story of Brian Clough's doomed 44-day tenure as manager of the reigning champions of English football--Leeds United. Previously managed by Clough's bitter rival Don Revie, the Leeds team had just completed its most successful period ever as a football club. It was perceived by many to represent a new aggressive and cynical style of football--an anathema to the principled yet flamboyant Clough, who had achieved astonishing success as manager of Hartlepool and Derby County. He had built these teams in his own vision with trusty lieutenant Peter Taylor. Taking the Leeds job without Taylor by his side and with a changing room full of--what in his mind were still--Don's boys, would lead to an unheralded examination of Clough's belligerence and brilliance over 44 days. This is that story: The story of The Damned United.

are these drivers maintained by anyone????
i thought these were "experimental"/proof of concept and not used at all.
Phoronix: Intel Gallium3D Graphics Driver Performance
While Intel remains to be the only major graphics vendor standing strong behind their classic Mesa driver on Linux for open-source support rather than drawing up plans to move to the Gallium3D driver architecture, there is actually available a Gallium3D driver available for Intel hardware. This Intel Gallium3D driver has been around since close to Gallium3D's inception, but it targets the older generations of Intel IGPs and was developed by VMware as a proof of concept. The driver is incomplete, but our testing shows that for those with Intel 945 netbooks and other hardware, the "i915g" driver is usable. In this article are benchmarks showing how this Intel Gallium3D driver compares to Intel's officially supported classic Mesa DRI driver.
are these drivers maintained by anyone????
i thought these were "experimental"/proof of concept and not used at all.
Actually I made a PKGBUILD for mesa with i915g and uploaded it to the Archlinux AUR:
(look at the PKGBUILD for build options)
The next day someone created a thread about how i915 is faster than i915c...
I have not really tested how it really performs but I use it on my eee 1000h now.
Could Phoronix specify why i915g is "not nearly as mature as the Radeon or Nouveau Gallium3D drivers"?
I mean, I can run xonotic on it! The only problem is the performance but you don't expect a netbook to have good performance anyway...
I wonder if llvm was used, since that is the major use case for i915g and its major feature difference from i915c.
I was actually wondering, and couldn't find an answer for this, whether i915g uses llvmpipe for software fallbacks (like the vertex pipeline, since the GMA950 doesn't do vertex processing in HW). If not, why not? It seems this would provide a pretty good performance benefit for machines with decent CPUs (like my tablet that has a Core 2 Duo and a GMA950).
Also, since the tested machine runs an Atom processor, it likely wouldn't derive as much benefit from that as my machine. I would be nice to see a test with a machine that has a higher-end processor. I might just have to test this myself.
I thought there was an i965g driver too
So we know if LLVM was enabled or not. I looked over the openbenchmarking site and found a bunch of logs but nothing about how you built the driver.
Hm. Looks like most of the benchmarks were rather CPU bound anyway (largely the same scores even at different resolutions). But still, the gallium driver's results seem to be 'offset', which either means that it produces more CPU churn (by having more overhead) or it utilizes less of the hardware GPU capabilities, therefore using more software fallback... Probably a combination of both.
Are there some charts of CPU utilization during the benchmarks for both classic and gallium drivers? Or perhaps some data about the amounts of memory I/O?

It's gonna come dow to Int's and which QB throw the most costly ones. Just my gut feeling. Well that and we must contain Ray Rice on those little dump off screens that go for 15-20 yards. Seems like that he gets 3 a game. Prediction Steelers 24 Ravens 20, Woodley seals the deal with a sack/fumble late in the contest.

A few prefatory notes not
already stuffed into other threads
Before the Jets came out and punched the Patriots' teeth down their throats, few in the media could conceive of any team that could beat them. The closest any of the talking heads might get to that was that the Packers played them close with Matt Flynn as backup. But playoff hype takes all the usual fluffery (Brady- and Peyton-fellation, proclamations of Belichick's unimpeachable genius, the undying ferocity of the Ravens D, the soon-to-be-elite status of Flacco, ad nauseam) and compresses all that kerfuffle into dense, unending barrages of mostly rote and reptitious shit packages flung from talking assholes. The naked lunch wriggling at the end of the fork is the reality, discussed here at MGS, that the Patriots... can... be... beaten. By God and Flying Spaghetti Monsters, it can be done.
I mean, hells, they did lose to the Jets earlier in the season, and anyone familiar with division rivalries should have at least entertained the possibility that the Jets could win again, apparent matchup favorabilities aside. For flying fuck's sake, they lost to the
. They barely eked wins against the Ravens, Colts, Chargers, the aforementioned Packers, and even the lowly Bills. Of those, only the Chargers was a road game. So while all the media were dazzled by the bright and shiny offensive stats Brady and the Smurfs were amassing, and building the fable of the Patriots' invincibility, the reality is that defenses win championships.
Didn't we go through all this once before?
18-0? Sound familiar? How about 18-1?
As wondrous as the Patriots offense has been of late -- and there is much to admire in it -- the Patriots started the Brady era as a bunch of hardscrabble vet castoffs and untested upstart pups, somehow cobbled together into a team that won three Super Bowls by exactly 3 points each. They were scrappy on defense, and did just enough on offense to get by. The current configuration of the Patriots is almost the exact opposite: a precision offense with just enough defense to get by. That's not a Lombardi-winning formula, neither theoretically nor, apparently, in reality.
So when I turn on the radio for the drive to work the Monday after the Patriots lose, I am confronted by talking assholes yet again, only now they've cleared about 50 pounds of impacted fecal matter out of their bloated bowel-brains. "The Patriots need to upgrade their offense... they need to draft better players for their offensive line..." I shit you not. All year long, the Patriots offensive line gave Tom Brady so much time in the pocket that he'd start plays clean shaven and end them with 5 o'clock stubble. The line? Are you fucking kidding me? The offense? The offense warn't the problem, chum. Yes, the Jets had their number that day. The offense isn't the problem. How can these talking assholes completely reverse track on everything they've been blathering about
all year long
Which brings me to the Steelers game. The Patriots were befuddled, confused, and surprised. Tom Brady went through his progressions, lost track, started over, patted the ball, burped it, and then did dumb things or was reminded that the other team is allowed to sack you. Meanwhile, Mark Sanchez, who is neither Derek Anderson-bad nor Brady-Manning-Ben-good, threw 3 TDs and posted a season-high 127.3 passer rating. (Last year's win over the Bengals in the playoffs yielded Sanchez's career high 139.4 passer rating.)
A very average QB named Mark Sanchez looked like Tom Brady and Tom Brady looked like a very average QB.
That's on the Patriots' defense, people. On a balanced team, when the offense sputters, the defense has to hold its own. A good defense, in fact, creates turnovers to give the offense more chances, and sometimes scores points all on its own. Isn't that a cool idea?
Back to Sanchez. Let's face it, the Steelers have never been the sexy sell for the media. In the regular season, it's all Manning-Brady, Brady-Manning. In the post-season, it's more of the same. The Saints? The Saints didn't shake that mold: hot offense, and the whole sublimation of a ruined city's collective dreams. But the Steelers? Good gravy, people: those low scoring games, ugly, bloody, and... low scoring. That sporadic offense. Between the AFC teams, both of which feature solid defense and running games, which are you going to feature, the guy who threw 3 TDs in bringing down the unassailable Patriots? Or the guy who is on the redemption tour after putting the idea of DTF to the test?
So the media will ignore the fact that our final four includes four teams with very good defenses, and will instead concentrate on the coronation of Aaron Rodgers, and how he is now Joe Montana based on one -- one! -- outstanding game, ignoring the fact that Rodgers had some mundane and even bad games this season and has never before even won a playoff game. Sanchez as up-and-comer is the AFC lead. Minor attention, all spotlighting QBs of course, since there are no other players on the team, goes to Cutler (
Will he be erratic or not? Stay tuned!
) and Roethlisberger (
Doesn't he finally deserve to be mentioned with the greats of this era? Maybe... and now for more slobbering over Aaron Rodgers!
Don't get me wrong. Rodgers is a very good QB, but he has a long way to go to prove anything. Sanchez is an average QB with further to go. The story line is how improved he is in the playoffs. And who can argue with statistics? A 75.3 passer rating in the 2010 regular season... and a 91.6 rating in the playoffs! Of course, don't look too closely at those playoff numbers, or you may notice that they are an amalgam of a 62.4 rating in the Colts game, and that 127.3 rating against the Pats. Actually,
look at that, close your eyes, and
about it for a second.
That's Mark Sanchez in a nutshell.
By any objective measure, an 80.0 passer rating is the cutoff for a passing grade. And these days, with more emphasis on passing (and not interfering with passing, and all the silly new rules protecting everyone from hurt feelings and such), a 90.0 passer rating is really the demarcation between the men and the boys. Sanchez posted a 75.3 regular season rating. A mere boy. Ben? Try 97.0. That there's a man, son. But, oh, what about that horrible game against the Ravens, they were getting clobbered and -- 101.8.
Sanchez had 5 games over 100 and 7 games under 70, playoffs included. Ben had 6 games over 100 and only 1 under 70. Not that passer rating is the be-all, as it doesn't measure fumbles, or rushing yards, or leadership, or broken noses. But it does speak to consistency, and Sanchez ain't got it.
What Dick LeBeau does is he removes variables.
He looks at a team and says,
OK, I can stop their rushing attack. That's what this team is geared to do. Now what?
And one by one he takes away top threats. He minimizes the deep ball. He makes the game one of attrition, where opposing QBs are forced to look for yardage in small parcels, forced to shrug off the big play and the big players and find the third and fourth receiving options. And when that happens, mistakes happen. (Usually: we've dissected why the Patriots formula is LeBeau Kryptonite.) When Billy Jo Schmenkman is your leading receiver, chances are you lost the game.
Dick LeBeau is going to force Brian Schottenheimber to put the ball into Sanchez's hands, and look for Dustin Keller and Jericho Cotchery. (A poster on another message board wrote, after the Colts game, that we should send Sanchez to Iran to overthrow it.) If Sanchez misses his mark, the Steelers will force punts, will create turnovers, and will ultimately dampen the Jets' hopes of scoring.
And that brings me to this week's predictions...
Out of my mind on Saturday night...

Green Bay Packers (12-6) at Chicago Bears (12-5). Line: Packers by 3.5. Total: 43.5.
All the way back on January third, I predicted the Wild Card games, the Divisional Round games, and the Conference Championship games, with overall success, not to brag. Right on 6 of 8 games, even with 4 of those results contingent upon the first week results, and 3 of 4 of the AFCC and NFCC teams in the mix. Had the Patriots beating the Steelers 38-35 in a shootout, and the Packers beating the Bears 20-16 in a close game.
Everyone wants to see Aaron Rodgers throw for 3 TDs, as he did in each of the previous playoff games -- no, wait! make it 4! -- and rack up 400+ yards passing, another TD rushing, and afterwards feed the Soldier Field by dividing 5 kielbasi sandwiches and a cheese hat and passing it amongst the multitude. Just remember that this is a division rivalry game, which almost always means close and hard-fought no matter which division you're talking about, and that in the previous two meetings this season, the Packers lost 20-17 and won 10-3.
Point being, this could be the antithesis of what all the media assholes want. They want another 48-21 drubbing, because if you actually have to look at things like, oh, fuck, I don't know... matchups, injuries, coaching, strategies, tendencies, statistics, and bothersome stuff like that... well let's just say it's much easier to pick a winner who wins a nice shiny perfect game than to have to use your brain if everyone's winning slobberknockers by 3 points. We need our new idol, and we need it now!
Nothing against Rodgers, of course. He was my fantasy QB, although his untimely concussion coincided with my demise in that noble league. Rodgers, unlike Sanchez, has fantastic passer rating numbers (93.8, 103.2, and 101.2 over the past 3 seasons), and more importantly, he's consistent. He's had some duds, as every QB has. But this isn't just about Aaron Rodgers.
Rodgers, against the Bears this season, threw for 34-45-316-1-1 and lost, and threw for 19-28-229-1-1 and won. See what I mean?
The Packers and Bears defenses have really paced these matchups. If you average those regular season meetings, you'd get a 13.5-10 Packers advantage. I can't see the defenses keeping things bottled quite as tight as that 10-3 matchup, so I like the contour of my 20-16 prediction. The Bears will have a psych edge, being ignored despite being the home team and the 2 seed, but the Packers won't be taking this lightly. The Packers D shredded the Bears OL and notched 6 sacks in the December game (if you're looking ahead to a Steelers Super Bowl matchup, this would be cause for concern).
It will be difficult for Cutler to get on track, especially since his receiving corps is the weakest of the four remaining teams. Cutler went 21-39-168-0-2 in the December game, and it's hard to see him doing much better. In the win, Cutler was 16-27-221-1-1. The Bears will need Matt Forte to drive the offense -- he had 91 yards in December but only 29 in the September matchup. If not for a Devin Hester PR TD, the Bears would have lost that September game as well.
The erratic Bears WRs like Knox simply disappear too much, but I think TE Greg Olsen, who's more a glorified WR than traditional TE, has the potential to be the go-to guy. He had 113 yards against the Seahawks. Of course, like the rest of the Bears wideouts, he was inconsistent the rest of the year (averaging about 25 YPG over the course of the season), and the Packers defense is a step up from the Seahawks. But if Cutler is going to get into any kind of synch with a guy, he'd be my bet.
The Packers offense is clearly superior, with James Starks sparking the running game (did Mike McCarthy intentionally hide this guy after his game against the Niners, as a playoff surprise?), and a nice group of wideouts. Greg Jennings is the leading receiver, but Donald Driver is still playing the role of the Packers' version of Hines Ward. James Jones and Jordy Nelson provide solid WR3 and WR4 options. Steelers castoff John Kuhn does the lumbering white guy running back thing, sort of the Isaac Redman component. Their TEs, Quarless and Crabtree, sound like they should sell pricey soap in suburban malls, and frankly they're non-factors, and poor replacements for Jermichael Finley.
The face of the Packers defense is undoubtedly Clay Matthews, but since this is a 3-4 defense with Dom Capers at the helm, it all starts at the nose, and BJ Raji is starting to show he can play at a high level. That boy is big and unruly. Matthews has 13.5 sacks, but just like the Steelers, none of that would happen without solid line play. Raji has 6.5 sacks, which is a crazy number for a 3-4 NT. In the secondary, Charles Woodson has passed the baton to Tramon Williams (IIRC, will be a free agent; the Pack have to keep this guy), who leads the team with 6 picks in the regular season and an astounding 3 picks (1 for TD) in the post. (Clay Matthews has also kept his train a-rollin' with 3 more playoff sacks.)
Most analysts depict the Packers D as "good" or "solid," but don't place it among the best in the league. Not in the same league as the Steelers or Ravens, or even Bears. But even in pure yardage stats, the Pack was fifth best, and they notched 47 sacks this season (one behind league leading Pittsburgh). Football Outsiders ranks their defense 2nd overall, and I tend to agree.
As mentioned in the media rant above, defense gives your offense opportunities. Even when the Packers offense sputters, their defense keeps giving them the ball back.
Which is not to slight the Bears. Face of the Bears, Urlacher, for the past few years a solid group plagued by injuries, but overall still a top unit. They were middle of the pack with 34 sacks, but FO ranks them 4th as a unit (behind the Steelers, Packers, and Ravens). The Bears allowed 17.9 points per game (deja vu: behind the Steelers, Packers, and Ravens).
Their line was helped immensely by the presence of Julius Peppers, and Urlacher and Briggs remain the bedrock tandem. They also have some greedy defensive backs: Ike's Louisiana-Lafayette teammate Charles Tillman has 5 regular season picks, as does corner Chris Harris, and the diminutive nickel back DJ Moore has 4.
It's a very close matchup between two solid teams, especially on the defensive side. The Vegas over/under seems curiously high, given the history here, so I'd go under, despite the nascent godhood of Rodgers. But Rodgers is superior to Cutler, and he has superior weapons: sooner or later, the Packers will get theirs. They do have to worry about Devin Hester, probably the best KR weapon on any team in the NFL. As mentioned, he turned the tide once this season.
Packers 20-16
sounded good then and sounds good now: that's four scores (2 TD, 2 FG) for the Pack, and four scores (1 TD, 3 FG) for the Bears, making it an even matchup with an offensive edge to the Pack.

New York Jets (13-5) at Pittsburgh Steelers (13-4). Line: Steelers by 3.5. Total: 38.5.
Jets had 13 offensive points last game to the Steelers 17, scored the only KR TD the Steelers allowed all season, and generally won the battle of field position throughout. I think it's difficult to expect 7-9 non-offensive points this time around, but the Jets could still win the field position war. Stats from the first matchup favored the Steelers, but there's not a lot to take away from them here. Steelers played flat, at the time a game up on the Ravens in the AFCN race and pretty much assured a playoff berth; the Jets were coming off the Patriots drubbing and the letdown game versus the Fins, and very much needed to ensure that they stayed ahead of then 8-5 Jax and SD, and even 7-6 Miami, so the psych advantage was there. Steelers targeted TE/waste of space Matt Spaeth 9 times (WTF?), with predictable results, in Miller's concussion absence. Polamalu will play through the nagging injury this week, but sat out the previous match to nurse the Achilles.
When the Steelers have the ball.
Rex was able to rush 3 and 4 and play cover against Indy and NE: while the Pats' rushing stats are virtually identical to the Steelers, much of that is a function of the wildly productive passing game and what that opens up. If the passing game is ineffective, as it was last Sunday, the rushing attack has no teeth. And the Colts' rushing game has left much to be desired. Mendenhall notched 99 against this defense, and will be relied on to get positive chunks on 1st and 2nd down. Rex will mix cover and blitz, and wasn't afraid to throw Coleman in last time for some effective corner blitzes. From his time as Ravens DC he knows that if you can overwhelm that Steelers OL you can kill drives and cause turnovers. The problem for the Steelers is that the OL can break down even on a 4 man rush if the Jets cover, and they're turnstiles against the blitz. They'll crush the B gap, where Ramon Foster and Chris Kemoeatu are often beaten by speed and overloads. (They're the old guard power blocking, compared to the nimble rook Pouncey.) The C gap at LT features Jon Scott, Bills reject and yet another guy forced into play by injury, who is unable to seal the edge. Ellis won't need dinner, because Scott's gonna be lunch.
That said, even with a porous OL, Ben shakes off defenders the way Charlie Sheen tosses aside hookers. It's the same old story for Steelers fans, and we know Ben's going to get sacked, 3, 5, 7 times, who cares? The Steelers just can't turn the ball over as they did early and disastrously against the Ravens. If Mendenhall's rushing compiles decent numbers (say, 65+), it bodes well but cannot mask the fact that it's inconsistent. The OL allows too many stops at or behind the LOS, and Mendy often gets chunks late or through improvisation, which is to say the drives can stall if the pass attack isn't working. With Miller and Ward, Ben has his go-to guys, and much has been made of who will cover Wallace. Likely Revis and Cro will rotate against him. If Bruce Arians is smart, which is an iffy proposition, he'll tailor which throws go to Wallace by who's in coverage: as speedy as Cro is, Wallace held his own against him, and deep ball is the call; if Revis, slant and go, don't give him anything downfield. Most interesting to me is the role of the seemingly interchangeable rookies, Manny Sanders and Antonio Brown. They've seen an increasing role as the season has progressed, and they can present matchup problems. Just the fact that Sanders or Brown can adequately spell Ward or Wallace means the DB has to adjust for new tendencies, has to adjust for fresher legs, has to consider which set of routes the new guy might assume, since they can take flanker, SE or slot.
One last note. With OC Arians, it's the best of times and the worst of times. He can pull some great playcalling when you least expect it, but will also revert to tried and true dumbassery. I expect to see a slow-developing bubble screen to Ward or Randle El that nets nothing, and a repeat of same flipped to the other side of the field a couple of plays later. I expect a slow-developing reverse to Wallace that the NYJD sniffs out for a loss of 8-10. I expect futile and predictable down and distance playcalls, mostly centered on running the ball up the gut every first down, through much of the second and third quarters. Going to the rooks with 2:13 and 2:07 left in the 4Q versus the Ravens, tied 24-24, on 2-and-19 and 3-and-19, was very gutsy however and shows that faith in Sanders and Brown that I touched on. So we'll see how creative Arians is the rest of the postseason.
When the Jets have the ball.
Jets will have tough sledding running the ball, although they did a pretty decent job last time. Still, the old guys of the front 7 don't usually cede much past the opening drive. It's likely that Schottenheimer will attack through the air, based on WR-DB matchups, but that then puts the onus on Sanchez. Much has been discussed that I won't reprise except to say that while his play in the post has improved, his inconsistency plays right into the Dick LeBeau style of defense: make the opposing QB play the perfect game, and pin their ears back on 3rd and longs.
LT and Greene racked up 49 and 40 yards last time out, and they will need to do that again to give Sanchez breathing room. I also think Rex and Schotty will pick their matchups wisely. You have Edwards, Holmes, Keller, and Cotchery as the primary targets, and the Steelers tend to give WR3 and WR4 targets wide berth and statistically big games. Last time, Edwards was BMOC, 100 yards even, with Holmes and Keller notching 40 and 19. They'll be matched with: Ike Taylor, big and fast but susceptible to short/quick routes; Bryant McFadden, adequate but has been burned on the big play, and is dealing with an abdominal injury; Willie Gay, who reeked as a starter but is pretty heads-up as a nickel back (and who played well in BMac's place in the Ravens game); THEE living legend, Polamalu, who is due for a big game-changer, and who will play through nagging injury (he's been much more used in cover lately than near the LOS); Clark, who is sub-par when Troy is out but who is elevated more than anyone else when he's on the field; and Anthony Madison, the ST CB who was pressed into duty last week due to injury and who is a clear coverage liability.
Holmes and Edwards both match well against McFadden, IMO, but it's going to be the very short game going against Ike. Hard to say who covers Keller, who's more WR than TE, but whatever. He could get Gay, or Timmons, or Pola. Edwards can be a big play guy, but he showed a lot of drops as a Brownie, and I'd be worried about a drop in a clutch situation if the D gets in his head (read: if Clark lays a nice hit on him). If Sanchez can exploit BMac's flaws, and get quick hitters to whoever Gay is covering (Gay is better downfield, when he can see the field better and make a play if the ball is in front of him), he could have a decent day. It's worth noting that his improved play has not yet had him post a 200+ yard game this postseason, and his passer rating was 62.4 at the Colts, and 127.3 at the Pats. He had 170 yards and an 81.1 rating last game against the Steelers. I can see him putting up 200+, and having a decent PR, but if the Steelers can force a shootout I think Sanchez will be exposed.
Traditionally, it would be guys like Keller and Cotchery who should have the best statistical receiving days, and LeBeau will want to shut down the threats one by one: LT and Greene, Edwards, Holmes... make the WR3 and WR4 win it for you. Without Aaron Smith (he is out for Sunday), Ziggy Hood will need to keep showing improvement, and the front 7 will need to keep the pressure on. Steelers don't blitz as often as people seem to think, but they do on critical third downs, and that's where Harrison and Woodley will need to win their matchups. Expect Sanchez to move the ball well between the 20s, at least early on, but LeBeau will be trying to get into his head by confusing coverages, guys standing up, moving around, dropping, rushing, and once in the RZ the defense prides itself on being tighter than a nun's snatch.
Point of reference:
the Steelers 13-10 win over the Ravens on December 5. Flacco threw for 266 yards and 1 TD. 1Q, 3-15 from the 3, Flacco beat Ryan Clark for a 61-yard throw to Boldin. 2Q, 3-6 from the 6, Flacco beats BMac for 67 to Stallworth. The takeaway? Flacco had all of 138 yards passing aside from those two plays, only one of which was a drive yielding points. He did very little in the second half. (Both were similar situationally and caught the Steelers trying to stop the short gain in the shadow of the BR own EZ, rather than expecting the deep ball.) I expect a similar dynamic with Sanchez: basically a very unimpressive stat line padded with a couple of big plays.
Should be a good, hard-fought game, much like a classic Steelers-Ravens scrum. Hard to pin a psych edge, the Jets ("our time is now") or Steelers (another day punching the clock). Jets should have some field position advantage. Ben will hit the big plays a few times, especially in the clutch. Something tells me 20-17 Steelers is the wise prognostication, but if the PSD makes some big plays I can see a deflated second half for the Jets and the Steelers pulling away. 10-10 at the half,
27-13 Steelers
is your final.
On the Vegas line, again, the under seems wise, but I like the Steelers to shake the Jets in the second half. If we could hang 31 on the Ravens, I think 27 is a good call against the Jets. The Jets scored 13 offensive points last time out, so there's consistency for you.
Football Outsiders
ranks the Steelers D best in the league
, and 1st against the rush and 2nd against the pass. Jets aren't pushovers either, 5th overall, 7th against the pass, 2nd against the rush. Their
offensive ranking metrics
a surprising 3rd overall, 3rd passing and 14th rushing, but the Jets only 20th, 19th passing and 5th rushing. So my sentiments about Sanchez, and the idea that LeBeau will put the game in his hands, seem reasonable.

The naked lunch wriggling at the end of the fork is the reality, discussed here at MGS, that the Patriots... can... be... beaten.
You cannot beat the mark sanchez inside. Or you could say the Jets slunked their way to victory.

Ski and snowboard roof systems from EMS are designed to get your gear safely and securely to your destination. Shop our great variety of car roof racks today. MORE
How to Choose Car Racks
From bikes to kayaks, there is a host of items that can be carried on your car, as well as options for where to carry them (top of the vehicle, rear end of the vehicle). This intro to car racks will briefly describe many of the available components.
To carry gear atop your vehicle you will need load bars that stretch across the roof. It is on these bars that accessories like bike carriers, kayak saddles, and cargo boxes are placed. You will also need roof mounts (Thule® calls them "feet") to hold the bars and fit kits to attach the mounts to your specific vehicle.
Bikes, cargo boxes, even snowboards can also be carried on the rear of your vehicle, either strapped to the trunk or attached to a hitch mount. One advantage of rear mount car racks is that you do not need load bars, mounting feet, or fit kits. The drawback is that it's harder to open the trunk or rear hatch of your vehicle.
Top mounted bike carriers offer excellent bike protection, stability, and security while still leaving space on the roof to fit other accessories. Thule also makes rear-mounted car rack bike carriers that attach to the vehicle's trunk, hatch, spare tire, or on receiver hitches. Some of these carriers can hold up to 5 bikes.
Skis and snowboards can be carried inside a rooftop cargo box, in an open air roof carrier, or on a rear mounted hitch car rack. Snowsport cargo boxes of course offer the greatest protection for your ski & snowboard gear. Some open air roof racks can carry up to 6 pairs of skis or 4 snowboards. Rear mounted ski & snowboard carriers also can carry multiple skis and snowboards and allow for easy bike attachment.
Thule offers a wide array of canoe & kayak car rack carriers designed to attach to load bars. Depending of the carrier and the width of the load bars, you may carry up to four kayaks atop your car. For those people who are unable to lift a kayak atop their vehicle, Thule makes lift-assist carriers that require just one person to load and unload the boat. Note that a canoe may be carried on load bars without any additional accessory save for straps.
The most common type of cargo carrier is the roof box. These rigid aerodynamic boxes mount onto Thule rack systems or factory installed racks and accommodate up to 21 square feet of gear. Thule also offers rear-mounted boxes for fast and easy loading, roof bag carriers which are easy to install and remove, and roof baskets which provide flexibility for bulky gear that may not fit in a traditional cargo carrier.
The Thule Fit Guide is an easy-to-use, step-by-step process for selecting the correct car rack system and accessories for your specific vehicle. It will ask you to select the make, year, and model of your car, your preferred sports, and the location of the vehicle where you wish to mount your rack (roof, hitch, or trunk). In turn, the Thule Fit Guide will list the load bars, fit kit, and feet that match your car, plus all of the available accessories.

I use the latest Catalyst 9.6 with Ubuntu 9.04 (all updates) and I am somewhat not able to suspend or hibernate my PC. Older versions (9.4 and 9.5) don't work either. Does anyone have an idea what the problem could be? If I remember correctly I can suspend and hibernate with the opensource drivers on this PC.
Details about my PC: mainboard is an Asus M3A-H/HDMI with a discrete Sapphire RadeonHD 3470 in Hybrid Crossfire mode. Swap is 2 GB as the PC has 2 GB RAM. The complete system (except /boot) is encrypted.
If more infos are need pls. ask!
Question is: should I be able to suspend and hibernate with fglrx and Hybrid Crossfire enabled?
Thanks. Grimsrud
Ps: By "don't be able" I mean the PC tries to power down but does not. It's just sitting there with a blank screen and a blinking "_" (don't know how to name it... maybe cursor?).
I'm using an older relative of your board. You could try booting a standard ubuntu-9.4 cd - and try suspend or hibernate there. I guess it won't work either.
If it does, it really might be related to Catalyst. So you should give it a try and uninstall it from your productive system; reconfigure your xorg.conf and see, if suspend works now. If not, please do not reinstall Catalyst right-away, but try something different.
Ubuntu supports mainline-kernels now, so you can have a look ahead at what's to be expected from future releases. http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ - try 2.6.31 rc - that's the one coming with Ubuntu 9.10. Fixed my standby-issues. Finally.
The big but: Catalyst 9.6 does not support kernel 2.6.30 or 2.6.31. So even if you know that the new kernel solves your problem, you cannot use it together with Catalyst and experience working 3d and working standby-modes. At least not today - but hopefully soon.
Hi oheohe,
thanks for your suggestions! I will try at least the live-CD as I don't want to mess arround with newer kernels where the fglrx-driver will not work. Maybe 9.7 will bring support for newer kernels and so I will try newer kernels than the standard on from Ubuntu 9.04.

A Different Home for BizWatch
- J. Jennings Moss
A note to Portfolio.com readers who have used our BizWatch product to track companies: BizWatch is moving.
Since we relaunched in December 2009 as part of American City Business Journals, BizWatch has been a key feature on Portfolio.com. You've seen it in the top right corner of just about every page, encouraging readers to follow what's being posted on web sites about companies and their executives.
This week, BizWatch is ending its run on Portfolio.com. But fans of the service can still track companies and executives on bizjournals.com, the online home for The Business Journals. Both Portfolio.com and The Business Journals are owned by Charlotte, North Carolina-based American City Business Journals.
BizWatch users can go here to start using the service on bizjournals.com. It's got a different look and feel, but the mission is the same—let you follow the companies you're interested in and get their news in a convenient, one-stop-shop space. That web address is www.bizjournals.com/bizwatch/.
If you're interested in specific company information on bizjournals.com, click here. And to search for executives, click here.
Thanks to Portfolio.com's BizWatch readers. Feel free to contact me if anyone has questions or comments about the switch in the BizWatch service. Email me at email@example.com.

Nashua deputy chief, already on leave, set to retire
Police Commissioner Thomas Pappas told the New Hampshire Union Leader on Wednesday that Howe recently submitted his retirement paperwork, adding the Nashua Police Commission received and accepted the request on Tuesday.
Howe was placed on paid administrative leave June 22 in the midst of an audit of the Nashua Police Relief Association being conducted by the Charitable Trusts Unit of the Attorney General's Office.
Pappas said he has enjoyed working with Howe, noting the commission works closely with the police chief and the department's two deputy chiefs. Howe has been a deputy chief with the Nashua Police Department for more than two years, according to Pappas.
"All of the captains are eligible to apply," Pappas said. Once all of the applications are received, the commission will review the resumes and interview candidates before making a final decision, likely within 30 to 45 days, said Pappas.
"He will be missed," Seusing said on Wednesday.
This week, Senior Assistant Attorney General Jane Young said two branches of her office have been investigating the Nashua Police Relief Association — the Charitable Trusts Unit and the Criminal Bureau.
With Howe out for the past three months, Deputy Andrew Lavoie has been the only active deputy chief with the department.
Staff writer Paul Feely contributed to this report.

"Up to this point there's been the Necessitas project under the KDE umbrella for Qt support on Android, but rather than this independent community project there will now be official support as of Qt 5.1."
What Digia are merging (and also helping to port to Qt 5) *is* the Necessitas project, led by BogDan Vatra. The wording of this phrase makes it seem like this isn't the case, or at least leaves it very unclear.
I'm not sure if you misunderstood this or are trying to stir up controversy, if so, consider me trolled.
