(Pa, B, LLL, V, M) Pagan worldview with some moral elements, including a recitation of the biblical doctrine that "The Lord is One"; 65 obscenities, 4 profanities & several vulgarities; gangster shouts & threatens people with death & man tells story of woman perishing in fire set by flammable pants; and, stealing, lying & religious hypocrisy.
In SAFE MEN, filmmaker John Hamburg tries to update the tradition of the English crime comedies of 50 years ago for 1990s' America, but he combines that tradition with bantering dialogue filled with foul language. Although one main character declines to follow a life of crime and the Bible doctrine of monotheism is quoted in a Jewish ceremony, the gangster lifestyle is not rebuked in this uneven movie.
About 50 years ago, English filmmakers crafted a series of delightful comedies that were driven by quaint characters reflecting English archetypes. The best of these movies starred actors such as Alec Guinness, Peter Sellers, Terry Thomas, and Ian Carmichael, who played aristocratic detective Lord Peter Wimsey on PBS. Some of these comedies revolved around a group of crooks who find out in the end that crime does not pay. Independent filmmaker John Hamburg tries to update that tradition for 1990s' America in SAFE MEN, a new feature from October Films. He combines that tradition with the kind of bantering dialogue for which PULP FICTION writer and director Quentin Tarantino is famous.
Sam Rockwell and Steve Zahn star as Sam and Eddie, two no-talent folk singers who get involved with a couple of Jewish crime families in Providence, Rhode Island. Wrongly pegged as master safe crackers by Big Fat Bernie Gayle's crazy, incompetent henchman, "Veal Chop," Sam and Eddie are forced by Bernie to crack three safes to prove they are really the best. The two men fail miserably but are saved when two real safe crackers, Frank and Mitchell, successfully open one of the safes that Bernie sends Sam and Eddie to open.
At one of their botched jobs, Sam meets Hannah, the daughter of another Jewish gangster, Big Fat Bernie's rival Good Stuff Leo, who sells stolen goods at a hidden warehouse. Sam falls in love with Hannah and finds his loyalties torn when Bernie wants Eddie and him to steal a prized possession out of Leo's store safe. Meanwhile, Eddie starts liking his "life of crime" and, after making a special effort to learn how to do it well, thinks about making a career out of it. The movie comes to a climax at the much-anticipated Bar-Mitzvah of Bernie's son, Little Big Fat Bernie Gayle, Jr.
SAFE MEN delivers many amusing moments as it follows these quirky characters. Paul Giamatti shines as the incompetent henchman Veal Chop, whose real name is Sasha. Veal Chop longs to be accepted and loved by his boss, Big Fat Bernie, and even by Sam and Eddie. They deny him that pleasure, however, so Veal Chop establishes a touching, funny rapport with Bernie, Jr., who is studying Hebrew for his Bar Mitzvah. Watching this "gangster with a heart of gold" encourage Bernie, Jr. with his Hebrew lessons and play a video game with him are among the biggest delights in this movie.
Although SAFE MEN is fairly lightweight and does not have the drugs, violence and sexuality of other films about gangsters, it does have a lot of foul language. The repartee between the characters, especially the males, is filled with it and seems greatly out of place in the context of the sweetness in much of the story. Also, although Sam returns Leo's prized possession at the end and Leo's daughter calls off the muscleman Leo sent to break Sam and Eddie's legs, the gangster lifestyle is not rebuked. In fact, Eddie decides to team up with the other two safe crackers, and Sam in effect gives Eddie his blessing. Furthermore, Big Fat Bernie and his son participate in a Bar Mitzvah ceremony at their synagogue, but their participation is just an ethnic tradition holding little real meaning. Finally, the story meanders just a little too much and surprisingly fails to give its audience the kind of comic climax that such a tale deserves.

More than a hundred Rutgers-Camden students rallied on campus this afternoon, shortly before the Rutgers Board of Governors began its regularly scheduled meeting.
Today's meeting happened to be scheduled on the Camden campus, where students, faculty and staff are angry about Gov. Chris Christie's proposal to fold Rutgers-Camden into Rowan University in Glassboro.
Christie introduced the plan last month, part of recommendations from a special task force designed to study higher education in New Jersey, particularly the Newark-based University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.
"I don't think Rutgers should call itself the State University if it's not going to be in all three parts of the state," said Michael Russell, a senior philosophy major.

Free Disaster Preparedness Guide For Pet Owners
By Gary Bogue
Friday, April 17th, 2009 at 8:15 am in Birds, Disaster plan for pets, Disasters, Pets, Pets & Quakes, Pets in Danger, Reptiles.
Dog trapped on roof by flooding. Noah's Wish photo.
Each year two to three million people in the U.S. are affected by disasters.
Both natural and man-made disasters have made it clear that pet owners need to have a plan in case of an unforeseen tragedy.
The National Association of Professional Pet Sitters has created such a plan designed to provide you with educational and reference tools to help guide you through natural and man-made disasters.
Do you have a disaster plan to protect your pets?
The "Disaster Preparedness Guide for Pet Owners" is a 19-page complimentary guide aimed to assist pet owners in developing their own Disaster Preparedness Plan, as well as to provide advice on how to work with their pet sitters to be prepared for, mitigate, and recover from both natural and man-made disasters.
I downloaded a copy of the guide and read it over and it looks pretty good. Since it's available to pet owners from across the U.S. (and beyond), the guide obviously covers a lot of bases, including tornadoes and thunderstorms, hurricanes, floods, winter storms, extreme heat and wildfires, earthquakes, tsunamis, and even volcanoes. That makes it pretty handy.
** The free 19-page guide is available to the public and can be easily downloaded from the NAPPS Web site, http://www.petsitters.org. I just printed myself out a copy and I'm going to keep it on file for easy reference.
A shorter quick reference guide is also provided for pet owners and emergency wallet ID cards are available to identify emergency pet guardians and emergency vet contacts.
Developed by NAPPS' Disaster Preparedness Committee, the guide also includes an official pet identification form, checklist for a complete Disaster Supply Kit, and special recommendations for birds, reptiles, and other small animals.
** The National Association of Professional Pet Sitters (NAPPS) is a national not-for-profit trade association dedicated to promoting the concept of in-home pet care, supporting the professionals engaged in at-home pet care, promoting the welfare of animals and improving and expanding the industry of pet sitting. NAPPS provides valuable credibility, networking and education to help foster the success of their members.
To find a pet sitter in your area, check out NAPPS' nationwide referral network at http://www.petsitters.org. There's a box to enter your zip code and get a list of nearby professional pet sitters. /Gary

The Supreme Court has re-affirmed the death sentence passed on two members of a robbery gang that robbed Gateway Bank, Ijebu-Ode branch in Ogun State and carted away N14 million in February 2008.
The duo Ore-Ofe Adesina (aka Alhaji) and Rashidi Olawale (aka Emeka) had appealed against the decisions of both the High Court of Ogun State, Ijebu Ode division and the Court of Appeal, Ibadan which affirmed the death sentence.
The robbers were arrested by a police patrol team a day after the robbery with two "Ghana must go" bags containing N3. 7 million in different denominations and wrapped in Gateway Bank currency wrappers after their vehicle was involved in an accident along the Lagos-Benin Expressway.
Justice Olufunlola Adekeye in the lead judgment held that the apex court cannot set aside the concurrent findings of fact of the two courts.
"We have before us in this appeal the concurrent findings of fact of two lower courts which we have no legally justifiable reason to set aside. I therefore dismiss this appeal for lacking in substance and merit. I affirm the conviction and sentence of the appellants by the two lower courts," Justice Adekeye held.

Time to sharpen their swordsPosted by on August 12, 2013 – 1:28 pm
It was a saying used over and over again on Monday as players spoke to the media, referring to the importance of "sharpening their sword" this time of year.
"That is what the preseason is for, to sharpen our sword and get ready for the year," said receiver Antonio Brown. "I am sure we will be motivated and hungry to come out this week."
Brown said it's a saying that Coach Mike Tomlin uses with the team, and when he says it, they listen.
"We have been hearing it a lot from Coach Tomlin," said Brown. "We have to sharpen our tools so when these games count we can squeak out with wins."
Cornerback Ike Taylor has heard the saying many times, and knows the meaning reaches beyond the practice field.
"It's getting better on every opportunity on the field," said Taylor. "Practice, mentally, preparation, and understanding what it is to be a professional athlete on and off the field."

Taylor likes Tomlin's stylePosted by on August 7, 2013 – 1:14 pm
Coach Mike Tomlin's new approach in training camp practices with live contact drills has the players on their toes, but it's an approach they like. In Tomlin's first year coaching some said he was a little tough on them early, causing them to wear down later. But this approach is different and well received.
"It's a more manageable toughness," said cornerback Ike Taylor. "Coach Tomlin has grown. He is a great manager. He knows how to manage his players and coaches. He doesn't let anybody dictate. He is the dictator.
"He laid the hammer down his first year and kind of softened up a bit. You have to respect that. He now manages when we are going to hit, how we are going to hit, and how long we are going to hit."

Tomlin to speak at symposiumPosted by on April 17, 2013 – 12:47 pm
Steelers Coach Mike Tomlin will be among the speakers at the NFL Career Development Symposium, May 6-8, at the Wharton School of Business.
The symposium, which will be attended by 64 assistant coaches and front office executives representing each NFL team, will serve as educational and inspirational tools for those aspiring to become an NFL head coach or general manager. There will be speeches, panel discussions and networking opportunities during the three days.
"I am honored to have the opportunity to address the symposium," said Tomlin. "I really believe it's a worthwhile program. I came up through the ranks as someone who was involved in it. I am looking forward to these guys taking the lessons learned and seeing them implementing in their professional careers."
Included in the symposium will be sessions on: "Expectations of Leadership," "Player Health and Safety," "Managing Key Relationships," "Brand Building/Media Training," and "Developing and Describing Your '90-Day Plan.'"
"We are pleased to offer this program to provide a diverse group of coaching and front office talent with the tools and networking opportunities to take the next step in their careers," said NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. "This symposium will help develop our coaching and front office pipeline and build on the progress we have made over the past decade."

Mike and Kiya Tomlin receive local honorPosted by on February 22, 2013 – 1:00 pm
Steelers' Coach Mike Tomlin and his wife Kiya were honored on Friday by the Chuck Cooper Foundation with the Career Achievement in Leadership Diversity and Community Service Award. Tomlin was unable to attend the luncheon because of the NFL Scouting Combine, but Kiya accepted on their behalf.
The Chuck Cooper Foundation was set up to honor the legacy of Cooper, the first African-American drafted by the NBA. Cooper, who attended Pittsburgh's Westinghouse High School, was selected by the Boston Celtics in the second round in 1950.
The Foundation's goal is to help further the education of students in the Pittsburgh area, something that is a passion for the Tomlin family as well.
"It's humbling," said Mike Tomlin prior to leaving for the NFL Combine. "It's not the type of recognition that we seek. We appreciate it, but we just feel like we are doing what we are called to do. We are greatly blessed personally and professionally and giving back goes with that."
With three children being raised in Pittsburgh, they strive to make the city and the educational system better not just for their own kids, but for others.
"We want to help out not only for myself living and working here, but we are the parents of three kids and Pittsburgh is a significant portion of their upbringing," said Tomlin. "As members of the community it's our job to make it the very best that we can make it for them and others."

Coach Tomlin's Post-Game CommetnsPosted by on November 19, 2012 – 12:21 am
Coach Tomlin: Tough football game. Nip and tuck. The difference is obviously that we didn't find a significant play, particularly in the waning moments and in any of the three phases to be the difference, to put points on the board and allow us to get out of the stadium with the win. We accept responsibility for our performance, but we also tip our hat to those guys. They did enough to win the football game. On the injury front, Ziggy Hood had a lower back, Isaac Redman sustained a concussion, Baron Batch had a foot injury and Jerricho Cotchery has a rib injury that's being evaluated. Some other bumps and bruises that are being evaluated, nothing definitive at this point. I'd be happy to answer any questions.
Re: QB Byron Leftwich's performance:
I thought it was griddy. We knew that this was going to be a Baltimore-Steelers type football game. It was going to be nip and tuck. I thought it was great. Obviously, not enough plays by him or by any of the rest of us to secure victory.
Did Baltimore do anything special to block on the punt return for a touchdown?
No, it was a good effort by him. They did a nice job, they double-viced our gunners there and when they do that, the tackle has to come from the core of the punt formation and it didn't, but nice execution by them. Obviously, a significant football play.
Re: The lack of third down conversions:
It's a Steelers-Ravens game. They didn't convert any either. We expected this to be a net punting type game and a significant play was going to swing it. Unfortunately for us, they provided a significant play with the punt return.
Did you think Leftwich had that type of long-run capability?
[Laughs] I don't think he did either, but we'll take it. Nice effort.
Re: The two early timeouts in the second half:
The play clock was running down so, obviously, it was confusing.
Re: Using the last timeout before the two-minute warning:
We were hoping we were going to get a stop there and I think we had an offsides or something. We wanted to get a stop there, stop the time, have them in a long yardage situation and maybe encourage them to throw the football. But that didn't transpire.
Re: Ben Roethlisberger being an active leader on the sidelines:
He didn't do anything any other quarterback wouldn't do. Charlie [Batch] does a nice job, Byron does a nice job when Ben's playing. We expect those guys to be active participants in adjustments and communication, particularly on the sideline and during timeouts.
How close were you to having Charlie Batch come in when Leftwich was being evaluated for a rib injury?
I wasn't. Obviously, he sustained some hits but that's football, particularly when you're talking about this matchup. He did a nice job of communicating where he was and, more than anything, we just wanted to do a nice job of communicating.

Colon honored for his couragePosted by on October 30, 2012 – 2:27 pm
For a man who eats, breathes and sleeps football, a man who has put football ahead of other things in his life, a man who treats the game like it's his first love, having it taken away from him the last two years has been challenging for Steelers guard Willie Colon.
Colon suffered a torn Achilles before the 2010 season, bringing his season to an abrupt and disappointing end before it even got started.
He worked his tail off to get back on the field for the 2011 season opener against the Baltimore Ravens and was proud of how far he had come and excited to be playing again. But it didn't last long. He tore his triceps muscle against the Ravens, and for the second-straight year found himself on injured reserve.
"The second time was the hardest," said Colon. "As a player you think you are going to have only one big injury in your career. I thought that was it. I had a good camp, week one I felt good in Baltimore. I was back in the groove.
"When I tore my triceps I didn't think about it. I knew it hurt but at the same time it was a normal football injury. When (athletic trainer) John Norwig told me I was going to be out again that was the hardest. I thought I was done with injuries. It was heart breaking."
Colon couldn't help but ask himself, why me? What have I done to deserve this?
"That is the number one question. You wonder who you ticked off," said Colon. "The toughest thing in life is to accept reality. I realized this is my reality and I can either cry about it or get back on the horse and get better and work from it. That is how I approached it, every day getting better and staying positive."
What Colon did was get right back on the horse and not only fought back from the second injury, but made the switch from tackle to guard while doing so.
And on Tuesday he was honored for his hard work and perseverance when he received the Steelers 2012 Ed Block Courage Award, voted on by his teammates and presented annually to a Steelers player who has fought back from an injury or tough situation to return to the field. Colon and Sheakia Edwards, an alumnus of Holy Family Institute who won the Courage House Award, received their awards at the 20th Arthur J Rooney, Sr. Courage House Luncheon
"He has been through a lot on and off the field, obviously dealing with an injury two years in a row," said Coach Mike Tomlin, who presented the award to Colon. "You couple that with the position change. This guy has been playing tackle for us since I came here and this year not only is he coming off an injury, he has been playing left guard. It tells you what type of man and teammate he is. I called him and gave him that news and he didn't bat an eye. As a matter of fact he thanked me for believing in him, that he could do that job. That is the kind of man Willie Colon is. I am not going to stand in front of you and pretend that he is a nice guy, but he is a good man."
Colon thanked those that helped him through the last few years, including Tomlin, offensive line coach Sean Kugler, the Rooney family, his teammates and trainers, and his family, who were in attendance after being stranded in Pittsburgh by Hurricane Sandy.
"Coach Tomlin tells us that's reality is real," said Colon. "As much as that sounds crazy, you have to accept reality. My reality was I was hurt for two years and I had to accept it and get over it."
Keeping that positive attitude wasn't always easy. There were definitely rough patches, times when disappointment meshed with anger, creating some long days, and even longer nights.
"You hear Coach (Mike) Tomlin talk about the love affair with this game," said Colon. "I have a deep love affair with it. I have sacrificed relationships, my own body and mind, my every day growth to be a football player.
"There is so much that goes into this game. You have to have balance, though. If you don't have balance you can fall off the deep end. I fell off that deep end and was able to climb back up that ladder. I just had to take it day by day."
The injuries are well in Colon's rearview mirror. He is back to where he was before the injury, now strong as ever.
"I learned a lot about myself during the injuries," said Colon. "I had a lot of dark nights, wanted to give up. But it made me think about how much I love the game, and I thought about the good times and it lit my fire. I love coming out of the tunnel and hearing the fans cheer. That feeling you get in your gut, the nerves. I still have that in my belly. That kept me going. Even now, when I see my helmet, put my cleats on, I still have that fire that I want to play football."
With all he has been through he is thankful every time he walks on the practice field, and doesn't forget how lucky he is, kneeling and praying before every practice.
"With all I have been through, I try to give God thanks for giving me another day to practice," said Colon. "I try to keep humble, practice my humility and work on my pride as far as being able to fight through anything I am going through."

Coach Tomlin's Post-Game CommentsPosted by on October 28, 2012 – 5:03 pm
Coach Tomlin: Good win for us in all three phases. Very necessary. Obviously, contributions from all parties involved. I liked the overall energy. The team worked together. Ryan Clark got a concussion. LaMarr Woodley has a right hamstring strain. I don't know the extent of it. We'll take a look at him tomorrow. Jonathan Dwyer had a right quad that got tight. We don't know the extent of it. We'll take a look at him tomorrow. We're going to enjoy this today. We'll review it tomorrow and push forward, but a good win for us today. I tip my hat to a lot of the guys, contributions, and so forth from players and coaches and the administrative staff. They did a nice job.
Re: Defenses ability to contain Redskins QB Robert Griffin III:
I thought we did a nice job. We weren't perfect. They test you, really. Dive, quarterback pitch, some of those things. They got some plays on us. The big thing and what we talked about all week is, regardless of what happened, we needed to run to the football with energy, run and hit and get multiple guys to the football. We thought that was the only way we could contain that outfit, largely, and I thought we did the job.
Re: Controlling the ball on offense:
For us, we look to possess the ball. If we convert third downs we feel like we've got a chance to do that. I think we did that today. That's kind of been our story this year. Of course, if you don't turn it over and you do that, that's a recipe for success for us in our mind. I think it was today.
Has RB Jonathan Dwyer earned himself a chance to become a regular starter?
He's answered the call and taken advantage of the opportunity and that's what we expect from all our young people. We don't discount what any of them are capable of. He did the job today but obviously, I read his name here when I talked about the list of injuries so I'm not going to speak to soon on that. We'll check all of the people involved and the health of guys that get the opportunities next week.
Re: Improvement on the offensive line:
I think we have improved as a team and that's what this journey that is a football season is about. You better find ways to win along the way. We hadn't done that enough to this point but I like the direction which we're headed.
When all three running backs are healthy, could Dwyer possibly be the starter?
I'll see what they look like next week. You're not getting it today.
Has Dwyer's performance the last two games surprised you at all?
This guy went over 1,500 yards his last two years at Georgia Tech. He was the ACC Player of the Year. He's not foreign to running the football.
Re: Players running backwards into end zone:
I didn't see it. I was looking at the penalty on the other end of the field. So, I'm not going to pass judgment on something I didn't see. Obviously, we're not into that.
Re: Putting together drives:
Like we were kind of talking about, just converting third downs, we also mentioned that we were running the ball effectively so we were on schedule. That creates manageable third downs. Ben [Roethlisberger] does a nice job of managing and protecting the football.
What is your assessment of the special teams today?
I thought we had our moments. We've got some dangerous return men and I think we acknowledge that. If we can stay penalty free, I think everyone will acknowledge that. We had some successes and failures in that regard. I thought our kick coverage was solid. We're going to continue to work.
Re: Thoughts on the uniforms:
I love them if we play like that in them. Go get them. I bet you they're hot.

Penalties have Tomlin ready to make changesPosted by on October 23, 2012 – 8:07 pm
Steelers coach Mike Tomlin didn't mince words during his weekly press conference when he talked about the penalties committed on special teams in the team's 24-17 win over the Cincinnati Bengals.
Four holding penalties, plus one negated because of an offsetting penalty, took the wind out of the sails of the return game.
"On special teams, we wanted to be explosive in the return game," said Tomlin. "I think we are capable of it. We believe we have some dynamic return men."
Tomlin quickly pointed out what it was that made them lack the explosiveness, and it had nothing to do with returners Antonio Brown and Chris Rainey.
"Penalties negated that effort," said Tomlin. "What is going on in our return game from a penalty standpoint is disturbing. We must improve in that area."
And the head coach has no problem making whatever changes are necessary to see that they do improve.
"To be quite honest with you, the multiple offenders and egregious offenders are going to be watching as opposed to playing as soon as we get some options as to who plays and who doesn't," Tomlin stated. "Right now, with injuries, we have minimal options. We will continue to work with these men but the first chance we get, we will send a strong message that we won't accept that type of performance.
"We feel like we can be explosive in that area, providing that we don't shoot ourselves in the foot. I thought we did that in the game."
Tomlin didn't point fingers at anyone in particular or name names, but it's likely those who are guilty could soon find themselves not dressing on game day if they don't correct the problem.
"You can take the helmet off of them and have them watch," said Tomlin. "That's what we intend to do if they don't improve in that area. They're egregious offenders and repeat offenders."
While Tomlin was upset with what happened with the penalties in the return game, he was pleased with the performance of other players who stepped in because of injuries, including running back Jonathan Dwyer and tackle Mike Adams.
Dwyer, who got his first start of the season, had 122 yards on 17 carries, the Steelers first 100-yard rusher this season.
"He's a guy in the group that's working," said Tomlin. "He's evolving and maturing as a player and as a person. It's good to see him take advantage of opportunities when presented. I think that helps his cause and ours. He's a guy in development. We like how it's going thus far as we sit here today."
Adams, who stepped in and started for Marcus Gilbert who will be out again this week with an ankle injury, continues to show progression.
"We're optimistic about his talent level and what he's capable of being," said Tomlin. "He didn't do anything to hurt that assessment. I think he's continuing to be a guy on the rise. I think his performance was a solid one. I thought he was good in the run game. I thought he was good on the second level, some combination blocks, and I thought he represented himself well in pass protection. It's a nice next step for him."

Coach Tomlin's Post-Game CommnetsPosted by on October 22, 2012 – 12:10 am
Coach Tomlin following the Bengals game:
Opening Remarks: That was a big AFC North road victory for us. Guys did what was necessary. Obviously we were playing without a few guys. I liked the contributions of the men that stepped up in their place. It was what was needed. Hopefully we can build upon it is what we talked about in there. We got ourselves in a hole; the first thing we have to do is stop digging. We did that tonight. We'll review this tape tomorrow and continue to push forward. Now we have to build on it. It looks like we came through this game relatively injury free. Adrian Robinson may have a concussion; he is being evaluated for that. Other than that we are pretty clean from an injury standpoint, which is good. Will Allen turned his ankle, doesn't appear to be significant.
Re: Heath Miller
Heath gives us consistent effort and performance on a week in and week out basis. Sometimes when we are victorious it gets highlighted, as it should. His performance tonight is in line with what he has done for us all year.
Can you talk about having LaMarr Woodley back and the interception?
It was a big play for us but we would like to think they all are capable of delivering those types of plays. He was the man in that instance. Obviously LaMarr Woodley in a helmet assists us in our effort and it was good to have him back out there.
Was this a bounce back game for Ike Taylor?
I will let you guys be the judge of that. We played winning football. He was a part of that. He did what we asked him to do. It was good overall team effort in all three phases.
Re: Offensive line and guys stepping in
Fortunately and unfortunately those guys, although they aren't starters they are experienced. We played a lot of ball over the last few years with Doug Legursky. Arrow is pointed up with Mike Adams. We are optimistic about what he is capable of being. It wasn't a situation where we went into it with negative thoughts. We were excited about watching those guys play and seeing what they were capable of doing, particularly Mike Adams. They answered the bell as they should. They are capable men. We were able to have a good, well-rounded attack on offense running and throwing.
Can you talk about the defense holding A.J. Green?
Big time ball for us. Like we said it was a collective effort. Rush, coverage, Dick (LeBeau) called a good game. He mixed in some zones. It was necessary to get us out of there.
Talk about the penalties and the turnovers, do they make it harder on your club?
That is the nature of NFL football. When you are highly penalized and turn the ball over you are going to put yourself behind the eight ball. But the guys didn't blink. They didn't. It's a testament to them. We were able to settle down and get our jobs done.
Re: Mike Wallace
The tape is the tape. He's got to catch the ball in a consistent manner. He didn't do it tonight. We'll get back to work tomorrow and hopefully he will be better next week.
Was there confusion on the two-point conversion?
We wanted to take a time out and we are allowed to do that by rule. He said that we weren't. I guess he assumed we were the team that took the time out prior to us wanting to take the time out. The Cincinnati Bengals took that time out so we should have been given that time out. But we weren't. The guys didn't blink. They executed and got the two points.

Tomlin expects injured players backPosted by on October 2, 2012 – 12:16 pm
Steelers Coach Mike Tomlin expects to have all on hands on deck in practice on Wednesday, after everyone except Marcus Gilbert participated in Monday's practice. And better yet, if all goes well in practice the rest of the week, Troy Polamalu, James Harrison and Rashard Mendenhall could all play on Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles at Heinz Field.
"Based on what I am looking at on how we worked yesterday I think that is a safe assessment," said Tomlin when asked if they will play Sunday. "We will watch these guys as we proceed throughout the week. All guys have performed well and were able to get through practice and we're optimistic that they're going to be full participants."
Polamalu has missed the last two games after playing against Denver, and Harrison has not seen game action yet this season, but both practiced Monday. Rashard Mendenhall also continued to practice, even though he has yet to see game action as well.
"Coming off the bye, I think it's been a productive bye for us," said Tomlin. "We've had the opportunity to work on some elements that we feel like need to be addressed in all three phases. At the same time we were able to get some of our injured men back."
Harrison practiced last week as well, and worked out during the team's bye. While Tomlin had not talked to Harrison yet to see how his knee responded to practicing, as he has had setbacks previously, he does know having him back healthy is a good thing.
"If he plays well and plays like James is capable of playing, obviously he'll be an asset to us," said Tomlin. "But, we're not going to make excuses and we're not going to sit around and wait for those that are not participating to participate. Injuries and so forth are a part of the game. When we have those guys, we'll appreciate it. When we don't have them, we'll remain steadfast in our goals and our objectives."
Having a healthy team will be a key for the Steelers, who are looking to get back on the winning track this week against the Eagles.
"It's a big week for us," said Tomlin. "Those are exciting things for us as we push into this week. It's a big week for us coming off our last performance, but also having an opportunity to play at home in front of our fans against a really good team in the Philadelphia Eagles."

Coach Mike Tomlin post-game vs. RaidersPosted by on September 23, 2012 – 8:43 pm
Opening Comment: That was a poor performance by us. When you play like that you lose football games. Not enough stops on defense. We turned the ball over on offense. We gave up a big return or two which provided field position, a shot in the arm in the kicking game and allowed them to respond to some scores. I would like to tip my hat to the Oakland Raiders. They played winning ball. That is not the style of ball that we desire to play. You are going to lose when you play like that, as we did today. We have got to chew on this one for a while, obviously. It's not going to go down easy, as it should not go down easy. It won't define us. We'll go back to work. We'll continue to search for areas of improvement, which are many.
Did you intend to go for it all along on fourth down?
I intended to go all along. I wasn't going to punt the football to them. We hadn't stopped them enough in the second half to do that. It was inside of one. If you can't get inside of one you deserve to lose games. I won't hesitate to do that.
Was there any reason you weren't able to stop them defensively or was it lack of execution?
Not very good execution by us, but at the same token you tip your hat to them because they did execute in critical moments and made the necessary plays. I don't want to take anything away from them, but obviously we expect more and better from ourselves.
Did you ever think about slowing down the pace in the fourth quarter?
I wasn't concerned about the pace; I was concerned about our quality of play and our ability to maintain possession of the ball. We turned the ball over some and that was a defining factor for us at least offensively.
Antonio Brown had a couple of drops and one got away. Your thoughts on that with the game he had?
We turned the ball over. We can't do that, not only him but us collectively. He wasn't the only one.

Coach Tomlin Post-Game vs. JetsPosted by on September 16, 2012 – 8:28 pm
Coach Tomlin: It was an appropriate response to last week's performance. We talked openly about it this week. That's what good football teams in the National Football League do. They might not always be perfect but they respond. It was a good week for us and the response was appropriate to get a win against a very good football team. It was a good start for us in our home venue in front of our fans. There were a lot of positives, of course. Obviously, it wasn't perfect by any stretch. I wasn't perfect but that's life. We'll learn from it. We'll start this process tomorrow in terms of learning from it and preparing for our next challenge.
Re: Adjustments you made after the Jets' opening drive:
It wasn't changes. We just buckled down and played a little bit better. We're capable of playing how you saw us play over any stretch of the game. That's what we expect. Obviously, we didn't start in the manner in which we desired, really on offense or defense. We moved the ball some but those drives stalled and we got field goals. We realize when you play good people you have to put seven points on the board as opposed to three.
Re: QB Ben Roethlisberger being sharp in the game:
He was but it's not like we're surprised by it. We've come to expect that from him. He expects it from himself. He's our guy and he delivered for us today. When you're facing the kind of adversity we were faced with, redemption week if you will, we expect the "A" players to step up and lead the charge and he is just that.
Was the reason for more passing plays than running plays in the first three quarters because that is what the Jets defense was giving you?
Often times, that's the case. When you play a Rex Ryan-led defense they pride themselves in getting after the run and they commit bodies to the run. We're committed to moving the football and possessing the football and sometimes that means taking what they give you.
Re: How your teams are able to bounce back from tough losses:
We've got a good team. We've had good teams and we've had good men. More than anything, that's what it's about. During times of adversity you get an opportunity to display your football character. We've got a bunch of high character guys and veteran guys that know the drill and understand the urgency of moments such as these.

Gamer completes GTA IV 360 in 17 mins 15 secs?
According to the Rockstar Social Club's '100% Club' – which lists everyone who's completed the game, obviously – a certain ninjaraiden2003 has completed GTA IV on the Xbox 360 in 17 minutes and 15 seconds.
Now with all those stories circulating the web about cheating, the question has to be asked: Is this some kind of workaround or simply an anomaly on Rockstar's part?
We're still calling it as we see it, people.

Mississippi State women's basketball coach Vic Schaefer said his program has been enriched by the presence of Cadance Foster and Kaita May.
The two seniors will play their final regular season home games tonight when the Bulldogs host the 12th-ranked Kentucky Wildcats.
May has been the starting point guard throughout the season for MSU, while Foster has been a valuable piece to the puzzle on and off the court.
Schaefer has often said that the Bulldogs couldn't have a practice without Foster.
t"It's a credit to that kid," Schaefer said. "We went and got a couple of kids like her in Dominique (Dillingham) and Savannah (Carter) that bring that energy and juice that you've got to have. Her value to our team is on so many fronts.

I would love to see more photos. I have been looking for something like this to make for my cats. Is there any chance I could see other angles?
How strong is that cat scratch post made from the table legs??
Amazing. Those are loved cats. But — do they use it?
I have bought so many cat beds and pillows and toys and scratch posts that have been entirely ignored by my two Abyssinians…. S-)

Artichoke Chicken
September 20th 2011By Susie Fishbein
This chicken gets a thumbs up from friends and relatives for its taste and aroma. I give it two thumbs up for ease. If you want to double the recipe, don't double the ingredients. You won't be able to fit 12 cutlets into a skillet in one batch anyway, so just make the recipe twice. You don't have to clean the pan in between, but this will ensure that all of the chicken will have the amazing flavor of the garlic. Also, if you prepare the dish in advance and reheat it, cook the chicken just until it's no longer pink. Don't overcook the chicken or else it will be dry when reheated the next day.

There's nothing worse than getting attached to a TV series only to have it ripped away prematurely. Thanks to recent projects like Veronica Mars [1] and the Heroes miniseries, we have renewed hope for some of our favorite shows that were canceled too soon, specifically the poor ones that only got one season. Now that so many shows are being revived in different ways [2], we feel inclined to make some polite suggestions about how we'd like to see other shows brought back from the graveyard. Ready? Let's do this.

My So-Called Life
How It Could Come Back: Movie
Can we get a Kickstarter campaign together for a My So-Called Life movie? How great would it be to catch up with Angela Chase (Claire Danes [4]), Jordan Catalano (Jared Leto [5]), Rayanne Graff (A.J. Langer), and Rickie Vasquez (Wilson Cruz) 20 years later? Are Angela and Jordan an item, or are they married to other people? Has Rayanne quit her wild ways? Is Rickie finally happy? I know Jared Leto's been busy [6], but only a feature film can answer all the questions I have.
Jack & Bobby
How It Could Come Back: Miniseries
Jack & Bobby ran on The WB in its 2004-05 season, and if you watched it, you probably remember it as a kind of confusing but totally great show about the childhood of a future president. I'd love to see a miniseries bringing back the incredible cast, including Matt Long, Logan Lerman, Bradley Cooper [7] — yes, Bradley Cooper — and Mad Men's John Slattery and Jessica Paré.
Life as We Know It
How It Could Come Back: Netflix Series
It's a sorry shame that ABC's Life as We Know It only lasted through the 2004-05 season, because it was really compelling. Sean Faris, whom you'll see in the upcoming Supernatural spinoff [8], led the cast as Dino Whitman, a high schooler navigating the usual perils of teenage life. Jessica Lucas (Melrose Place), Missy Peregrym, and Kelly Osbourne all costarred in the show. You know who else? Veronica Mars' Chris Lowell (Piz!).
Freaks and Geeks
How It Could Come Back: Movie
Aah, Freaks and Geeks, one of TV's most tragic cancellation tales. Paul Feig and Judd Apatow's 1999-2000 high school drama deserved more seasons, but since that wasn't in the cards, how about a movie? I would kill to see Linda Cardellini, John Francis Daley, James Franco [9], Seth Rogen [10], Busy Philipps, and Jason Segel [11] reprise their roles. I would pay extra if Lizzy Caplan, Ben Foster, Jason Schwartzman [12], and Shia LaBeouf [13] all turned up in character too.
How It Could Come Back: Movie
After Freaks and Geeks was canceled, Judd Apatow moved on to the half-hour comedy Undeclared. He took Seth Rogen [14] and Jason Segel [15] with him and added Jay Baruchel, Charlie Hunnam, Carla Gallo, and Monica Keena. I could totally see a Kickstarter campaign funding a movie for this underappreciated gem, especially if they promised cameos from Amy Poehler [16], Kevin Hart, Jenna Fischer, Will Ferrell [17], and Adam Sandler [18], who all appeared on the show.
How It Could Come Back: Musical
Ever since it was announced that Pushing Daisies would come back as a Broadway musical [19], I can't help but think that Wonderfalls, a quirky show that ran on Fox in 2004, should follow in its footsteps. The series, about a girl who works in a souvenir shop in Niagara Falls, has a similar whimsical feel that would play well with Broadway audiences, not to mention the fact that Lee Pace [20] also starred in it.
How It Could Come Back: Netflix Series
The CW's short-lived comedy Privileged is perfect for a Netflix series revival. JoAnna Garcia Swisher starred in the 2008-09 series as a Yale grad who takes a job tutoring two spoiled Palm Beach girls, one of whom is played by Pretty Little Liars' Lucy Hale! Isn't it about time we catch up with Megan Smith and the Baker girls?

Hotly-tipped Los Angeles indie rockers--and one time film students--SAINT MOTEL have exclusively premiered their new music video for the song "Benny Goodman," off their debut full-length album VOYEUR, released earlier this year. The video--up today on PasteMagazine.com--was directed by lead singer A/J JACKSON and features two viral sensations combining creative forces: Miles "Baby Boogaloo" Brown and Derrick Tuggle. Check the video out below!
"The concept for the video is inspired, like the song itself, by the tale of the Benny Goodman's struggle for success," explains JACKSON. "As Benny learned at the Palomar Ballroom in 1935, when no one else believes in you, when you can't go on, when the end is near...don't give up! Because that just might be your time to shine."
7-year-old Miles "Baby Boogaloo" Brown has appeared twice on "The Ellen Degeneres Show," making his TV debut in October 2009 and returning to dance again for Ellen in December 2010. Baby Boogaloo began dancing when he was 3-years-old and quickly rose to fame appearing in music videos for Chris Brown, Aloe Blacc and Stereotypes as well as TV appearances on Nick Jr.'s popular "Yo Gabba Gabba," as a finalist on NBC's "America's Got Talent" and countless commercials.
Derrick Tuggle essentially became an overnight sensation when he starred in The Black Keys' "Lonely Boy" music video. In the video--which has been viewed over 20 million times and was nominated for an MTV Video Music Award for "Best Rock Video" earlier this year--Tuggle appears solo throughout the entire clip lip-syncing and dancing to the song (http://youtu.be/a_426RiwST8).
To coincide with the release of the "Benny Goodman" video, SAINT MOTEL will embark on a West Coast headlining tour kicking off tomorrow, Thursday, November 29 in Stockton, CA. The band will then head up the California coast hitting Sacramento before reaching Seattle, Vancouver and Portland, then circling back towards Southern California stopping off in Seaside and Fresno before wrapping Saturday, December 15 in Costa Mesa, CA.
With sophisticated savvy and singularity, SAINT MOTEL--JACKSON (leads vocals/guitar), DAK (bass), AARON SHARP (lead guitar) and GREG ERWIN (drums)--has built a formidable reputation on the back of inventive indie pop and wildly-fun live shows. VOYEUR, the band's debut album, is lush with stories that reveal themselves through thematic twists and turns with a narrative voice both subversive and sincere.

Labeled Animal Cell Diagram
Living organisms are made up of basic microscopic units called cells. Cells are prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, wherein the latter is more complex and contains nuclear material. Plants and animals are made of cells and though most of the cell organelles are the same, they do have their differences. This article provides information about the different cell organelles present in the animal cell, diagram and functions. The labeled animal cell diagram will help understand the parts of the animal cell.
Cell Membrane
Cell membrane or plasma membrane is a membrane common to both plant and animal cells. As observed in the labeled animal cell diagram, the cell membrane forms the confining factor of the cell, that is it envelopes the cell constituents together and gives the cell its shape, form and existence. Cell membrane is made up of lipids and proteins and forms a barrier between the extracellular liquid bathing all cells on the exterior and the cell organelles floating in the cell's cytoplasm. This membrane is semi-permeable, thus, it allows only selected substances to pass through it into the cell's interior.
Cytoplasm or Cytosol is nothing but the jellylike substance filling the cell. To be more precise, it is that fluid material present outside the nucleus and within the cell membrane, into which various cell organelles are scattered. The jelly like substance is made of dissolved nutrients and helps different material move throughout the cell by a process called cytoplasmic streaming. Cytoplasm comprises of a network of cytoplasmic filaments, that are responsible for the shape of the cell. Moreover, they also help the cell move. Read more on structure and functions of cytoplasm.
Cell Nucleus
The cell nucleus is the trademark of any eukaryotic cell. Plant and animal cells are eukaryotic cells, which means they possess a true nucleus. The cell nucleus is a spherical shaped body encompassing a nucleolus, chromosomes with DNA and some other organelles with the help of a nuclear membrane. This nucleus consists of highly specialized cell organelles that take care of storing the cell's hereditary material (DNA) and also co-ordination of different cell activities like protein synthesis, cell division, growth, etc. Read more on cell nucleus: structure and functions.
Mitochondria (singular – mitochodrion) are double membrane bound cells, scattered in the cell's cytoplasm. The double membrane comprises one outer smooth membrane and one inner convoluted membrane, forming loops called cristae. Both these membranes together form the outer double membrane and keep the fluid filled matrix within the mitochondria from mingling with the cytoplasm of the cell. Mitochondria is popularly called 'power house of the cell' as it furnishes the cell with all the energy required (ATP) for locomotion, cell division, production of secretory products, etc. The number of mitochondria present in cells may vary depending on the cell's activity. Read more on mitochondrial DNA.
Centrioles are self-replicating, cylindrical bodies comprised of 9 triplet bundles of microtubules, which means each bundle has 3 microtubules and there are such 9 bundles. Centrioles are present only in animal cells and each animal cell contains two centrioles arranged perpendicular to each other. Their main function is assisting in the organization of cell division process. When animal cells divide, they centrosome of the cell divides into two and the centriole replicates. Thus, the new centrosome halves have a pair of centrioles each and form new independent daughter cells.
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
ER is a vast network of membranous tubules and sacs called cisternae in the cell's cytoplasm. There exists two types of ER: Rough ER and Smooth ER. Rough ER features several ribosomes attached to its surface, thereby conducing to its rough appearance. The function of rough ER is protein synthesis and transport of nutrients. The smooth ER unlike the rough one does not have ribosomes attached to their surface, thereby giving them the smooth appearance. Its function is lipid synthesis, carbohydrate metabolism and detoxification of poisons and other harmful substances.
Golgi Apparatus
Also known as golgi complex, these are piles of flattened sacs layered one above the other. One can observe the golgi apparatus in the labeled animal cell parts diagram. The golgi apparatus is situated near the cell nucleus and besides the stacked sacs, it also contains large number of vesicles. The main function of this golgi complex to receive proteins synthesized in the ER and transformed it into more complex proteins. The vesicles in the apparatus are used to send molecules to the cellular membrane, from where excretion takes place.
Lysosomes are produced by the Golgi apparatus and appear like small spherical bodies featuring a single membrane confining it. Their prime function is breaking down of cellular waste substances from the cell into simplified substances. The simplified versions are then transferred to the cytoplasm of the animal cell for building new cell materials. Lysosomes are able to do this with the help of over three dozen types of hydrolytic enzymes like lipases, nucleases, proteases, polysaccharidases, etc. Thus, lysosomes are responsible for digestion of nutrients in animal cells.
Ribosomes are small, spherical organelles comprising 65% ribosomal RNA and 35% ribosomal proteins. These organelles are sites of protein assemblage and are responsible for protein synthesis. They occur scattered in the cytoplasm and are also found adhering to the surface of ER. Animal cells contain ribosomes with four strands of RNA.
Vacuoles are fluid-filled cavities encompassed by a membrane present within the cell itself. These vacuoles act as storage areas for the cells and play significant roles in release of cellular waste substances and intracellular digestion. Vacuoles present in animal cells are small as compared to plant cell vacuole.
As you read the information on each organelle, refer to the labeled animal cell diagram for better clarity. To check if you have understood the cell parts, draw a blank animal cell diagram and try to fill in the different parts without referring to the labeled animal cell diagram. This will help you understand how much you have comprehended. Read more on similarities between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

Does dog know I'll return?Dear Dr. Fox: I was wondering if you believe dogs have a sense of time. When we leave the house for 10 minutes, we get the same reaction as when we come home after leaving him at a kennel for three days. Also, I was told that every time we leave, the dog thinks that we will not return. Is this correct?

Last night the eagerly awaited first part of the interview with Lance Armstrong by Oprah Winfrey was broadcast.
Needless to say, I did not stay up to watch it live as it was 2 o'clock in the morning GMT.
I did, however, see some brief excerpts this morning on the news which confirmed my view of Armstrong when I read his book that he is not a man to whom you would easily warm and his confirmation of Oprah's suggestion that he was a bully was exactly howI felt about him a few years ago.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, the former seven times Tour de France winner finally confessed to his indiscretions. After all, there was no other course he could take given all of the evidence which has appeared over the past few months. He admitted to doping during his career and revealed that he took performance-enhancing drugs in each of his Tour wins. He stated that doping was "part of the process required to win the Tour".
The US Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) are now calling on Armstrong to confess the full extent of his doping under oath. USADA was the agency that brought the charges against Armstrong after federal prosecutors in California dropped their investigation into alleged doping. Armstrong then filed a lawsuit against USADA last year accusing it of "corrupt inducements" to other cyclists to testify against him but then in August he stated that he would not fight doping charges filed against him. He was thereafter stripped of his Tour de France titles since 1995 and just last week his 2000 Sydney Olympics bronze medal. He has continued to protest his innocence until his interview with Oprah Winfrey.
There is a feeling, however, particularly amongst those in the cycling world, that this interview has not answered all of the relevant questions and indeed many questions were impressively dodged or not answered at all by Armstrong. His ability to answer a question without actually saying anything definitive was impressive. There was very little emotion shown although I believe the second part which involves his family does show him in a different light which is mildly comforting.
Armstrong did not name any names and the issue remains open about how many other people are involved. His assertion that taking performance enhancing drugs was like putting air in a tyre or filling a water bottle, makes it fairly safe to assume that the problem of doping was, and perhaps still is, rife. He also did not state whether he will be prepared to work with USADA and testify against the senior officials of cycling's governing body, UCI.
Although Armstrong's admission is a small step in the right direction there still remain many questions unanswered. Perhaps part two will broach some of these questions although given the interview style of Oprah Winfrey, I would sincerely doubt it. It seems as though we will have to wait and see what further steps are taken by bodies such as USADA but I would guess that this is certainly not the end of the matter.
