It's August 12th, 2010 and time for my annual football picks. This time it will be in blog form:
AFC East:
New York Jets: As of right now, they have yet to come to terms with self-centered Revis. However, with or without their selfish All-World corner, this is the clearly the team to beat in the East. They'll have competition, but with Sanchez growing a year older, Shon Greene becoming more of the man in the offense and a defense that will finish top 10 in the NFL, they'll be hard to stop. Predicted record 12-4.
Miami Dolphins: The abheration of the league. They have a good defense, but their novelty act is getting old. It's time for the Dolphins to be more than a 1 demensional offensive team, and continue to be a tough as nails defense. I'm not seeing too much of an opportunity for either. However, I do like their chances to contend, because defense keeps you in games, and their offensive line is one of the best in the league. Predicted Record 10-6.
New England Patriots: Speaking of one demensional offenses... The runningback by committee didn't work last year, it really didn't work in '08 either, do we really think it's going to work in '10? I don't think so. The problem is New England's offensive line. With a poor line, you need a feature back that make people miss tackles, or be able to run people over with sustained success. I don't see a runningback that fits either of those descriptions with any kind of accuracy. Then there is the defense. This defense is one injury away from being a trainwreck, and since it's football and injuries happen without being on the gridiron, this defense has a really good chance of being a tranwreck. Predicted Record 8-8.
Buffalo Bills: This is just one of those teams (Like the Lions) that is just on their own program, using a flawed design where the best they could possibly do is mediocre performance. Are they going to win some games? Yes. Are they going to lose some games? Yes. Will they be above .500, no way. Someone needs to tell the Buffalo Bills leadership that if they will keep wasting runningbacks, until they understand that they need to have a better offensive line. Predicted record 5-11.
AFC North:
Baltimore Ravens: Defense wins games, however outscoring your opponent is really the ultimate goal. This year's Ravens provide the best chance for a championship run, and only this year. Ray Lewis, Ed Reed and a host of other defensive personel are getting old, and the time for them to make a run is now. Ray Rice and Joe Flacco will be well respresented and provided for with an impactful o-line. Predicted record 14-2.
Cincinnati Bengals: I don't like Terrell Owens, let me say that right off. But I do like Carson Palmer, and what Cedric Benson did last year. Their defense isn't amazing, but it will keep them in games. I think the Bengals will surprise a lot of people and meet the expectations that have been put in front of them. Predicted record 11-5.
Pittsburgh Steelers: If they get off to the slow start they did last year, they will be in for a long season, even after Rottenburger comes back. Ben Roethlesberger did this team a favor, by being suspended for the first 6 games, it gives them a chance to have an identity that is not synonomous with Big Ben and something beyond The Bus. The Steelers defense will keep them in games, but they can't win the game for them. They start off slow and end up with a mediocre record. Predicted record 9-7.
Cleveland Browns: A lot of really solid moves, but they are still at least two more offseasons away from being competitive. Their defense is decent, and against bad competition, they might have a chance, but 6 losses in division right off, is always tough to overcome. Predicted record 4-12.
AFC South:
Indianapolis Colts: 7 years in a row, they have won the division. Saunders, Feeney, and the rest of the Colts defense should be healthy and ready to roll this year and avenge their superbowl loss. With the Ravens talent, now matching and in someways exceeding the Colts talent, it will be a much tougher path. I think they'll make it 8 years in a row. Peyton Manning and Reggie Wayne are too much of a dominant force to be reckoned with. Predicted record 12-4.
Tennessee Titans: Jeff Fischer deserves to be mentioned as one of the best coaches in the league. I can't stand Vince Young, I think he's a schmuck, his off-field incident this year proves that he is. I think that Chris Johnson could be one of the best runningbacks the NFL has ever seen. The defense is solid, always top half of the league. Chris Johnson makes Vince Young, and that defense better. Predicted record 10-6.
Houston Texans: I'm not sure what to think of this team. Their defense should be one of the strongest in the league and they are getting closer and closer to the Ravens mold. Their offense is a very large question mark. I think Andre Johnson is the best receiver in the NFL. Predicted Record 7-9
Jacksonville Jaguars: This team, just isn't a very good team. David Garrard, while a notoriously safe QB (TD to Ints), he doesn't move an offense very well. Maurice Jones-Drew, is the man, he's the only offensive weapon on this team. The defense is very swiss cheese like at this point and you can't expect any consistent productivity, especially out of secondary. Predicted Record 5-11.
AFC West:
San Diego Chargers: The toast of the West is still the toast of the west. It'll be tough for any other team to step up in the west, so I'm going to give them 5 guaranteed wins (maybe a loss to Kansas City at home). There defense isn't amazing, but in the West, it doesn't have to be. They will struggle with competing with the rest of the NFL, which is why I think they win the division with only 10 wins. Predicted Record 10-6.
Kansas City Chiefs: This team retooled, rebuilt, and they are really a step away from being a legimate contender. There are many great things happening here. I think the addition of Thomas Jones, compliments Jamaal Charles and Matt Cassel in a huge way. I think that their defense continues to improve and that they might have the best defense in the West. Predicted Record 8-8.
Denver Broncos: This team is terrible, and getting worse. Their draft was one of the worst drafts of an NFL franchise in a long time. They took big risks, without the possibility of big rewards. Their fall from the graces of NFL eliteness has now reached their apex and they will be mired in the muck of the NFL for a couple of years. But hey, at least they are better than the Raiders. Predicted Record 5-11.
Oakland Raiders: The most dysfunctional sports franchize in the world, resides in Oakland. At least the Clippers, Pittsburgh Pirates, and PAC-10 Basketball have an excuse. The Raiders do not. The problem is and always has been the ownership and the leadership. The Raiders will never have the right person in place, until Al Davis is ousted as owner. I mean, they paid some junk cornerback the richest cornerback contract in the history of the league, and he wasn't the best or even in the top 10. Predicted Record 3-13.
NFC East:
Dallas Cowboys: I hate saying this, but the objective mind of mine, says that the Cowboys are loaded both on offense and defense and that the rest of the East will have a hard time competing. They have the best offensive line in the league, the best defensive line, and one of the most underrated head coaches in the NFL. Seriously, how would you put up with Jerry Jones and his shenanigans. That being said, they are still not as good as the Saints. Predicted Record 13-3.
Philadelphia Eagles: Getting rid of McNabb was the probably the best thing that could happen to them. Look, I get it, he gave a lot to the Eagles, but that doesn't mean that you continue to cart his tail around until his arm falls off. Right? Kolb, McCoy, and Jackson are a great 1-2-3 punch and they are young, so they have room to grow. Their defense isn't amazing, but the Eagles will compete this year and more importantly make a run next year with some additional defensive help. Predicted Record 10-6.
New York Giants: Eli Manning is the best mediocre quarterback of all-time. Nothing about Eli stands out as amazing, right? His QB rating, completion percentage, TDs to Ints ratio, all mediocre. Why is he the best mediocre quarterback? He's clutch, but this year it wont be enough. Brandon Jacob can't really run, and that line is getting old and has played their best days. Ahmad Bradshow is a nice change of pace, but when your pace doesn't really have you change anything to defend against either back, it doesn't help. Predicted Record 7-9.
Washington Redskins: I'm not sure when this will turn around for the Redskins, but it'll probably be sometime after they stop hiring the next retiring offensive star. I think we will find out, very soon, that McNabb was a product of a well developed system (Kolb was successful in it too), rather than being successful in spite of the system (which is what he'll need to do in Washington). Clinton Portis is an old 29 and he really has no replacement. The defense is old, the receiving crew is old. I think everyone is old in Washington, except the owner. However, with Shanahan at the healm, perhaps things will be changing for the better. Predicted Record 5-11.
NFC North:
Green Bay Packers: Aaron Rodgers is the man, Ryan Grant is not, Greg Jennnigs and Donald Driver continue to be amazing, the left side of the offensive line should be returned their rightful owners. There are a lot of things going on in Green Bay that should be questioned. However, there are also a lot of things going right. The Packer defense was amazing to start the season, last year, and then they fell apart (against lesser competition no-less). If the Packer defense can keep their intensity up throughout the entire season, then they will once again be very successful. Predicted record 11-5.
Minnesota Vikings: Adrian Peterson's well documented fumbling problems, and Brett Favre's propensity to throw the ball to the opponents, could be quite the roller-coaster ride this year. I mean, you can't expect last years performance to continue to be the norm, can you? I don't think so. There offensive line is the best north of the Lone-Star state, which makes Adrian Peterson even better, but their defense needs to make some repairs. Predicted record 10-6.
Detroit Lions: This is probably the biggest shocker out of all the predictions I'm going to make. That the Detroit Lions are going to finish in a position other than last place. They have done this before though, draft offensive weapons high in the draft, and hope and pray. The biggest difference is that their line is much improved, so this incarnation of offensive weapons might actually deliver, eventually. Their defense is still terrible, despite a draft focus on defense. Predicted record 6-10.
Chicago Bears: Welcome to the hot seat Lovie Smith. This team is absolutely terrible. Forte had a great season last year, but he ran the ball over 300 times as a rookie, and that never spells out anything good in the long run. They still have no offensive weapons to surround Jay Cutler with, and now they've brought in the "everything is now guaranteed to fail" expertise of Mike Martz. Dumb, dumb, dumb. Rumors are that Urlacher is 100%, however, it doesn't really matter, if the offense can't score any points. Predicted Record 4-12.
NFC South:
New Orleans Saints: This is Nawlins' world, and the rest of the NFL is just living in it. New Orleans is bringing back, everyone that matters to engineer a second run at the superbowl. Their opportunistic defense will need to continue to be opportunistic (led the league in TO ratio). I'm expecting huge things from Pierre Thomas as well, especially with the injury to his goal-line replacement. Predicted Record 13-3.
Atlanta Falcons: New season, first off, so new expectations, and new personel. I think that the Falcons are a very good team. They have a strong nucleus on offense with Ryan, Turner, and White. Those three should be able to control the offensive side of a ballgame against any defense. Their defense is the most suspect part of the team, but they are gritty and perform well against the teams they are supposed to handle. Predicted Record 11-5.
Carolina Panthers: Matt Moore is not the answer, the two-headed monster of D'Angelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart is also not the answer and Steve Smith is not the answer. They are all in fact the question. That question is, who is going to lead this team? Their defense continues to lose it's edge as they age as well. If Carolina's line can hold up this year, then they could contend, but I'm not sure I can guarantee that enough to place them any better than I am predicting them to be. Predicted Record 6-10.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers: This team is terrible, they really have no hope of making anything happen, despite end of the season performance. They might eak out 3 wins, but I don't think so. No reasoning offered, if you don't see it, despite how obvious it is, then even my reasoning would not make you see it. Predicted Record 3-13.
NFC West:
San Francisco 49ers: I think that this is a 3 team race and that the 49ers have the defense and the runningback to take the division this year. It'll be an interesting test. Frank Gore is bouncing back from an injury riddled season, while the defense is still as nasty as it was last year. I'm not looking for amazing to win the West, just "good 'nuff". Predicted Record 9-7.
Arizona Cardinals: The loss of Kurt Warner wont hurt as much as the loss of Anquan Boldin. Their defense is okay, but having Matt Leinart running the show without Anquan Boldin (when he was terrible with him) is going to significantly hurt their chances to win games. They will probably play themselves out of a bunch of games. Predicted Record 8-8.
Seattle Seahawks: There have been a lot of positive moves for the 'hawks. However, the biggest one is letting Justin Forsett start this season as the feature back in Carroll's system. The defense is fast, but can't tackle to save their life. There are many other things to like and dislike about this team. Predicted Record 8-8.
St. Louis Rams: Mark my words. The Rams will win one game this year. That's it and they play in a terrible division. Stephen Jackson will single-handedly win that one game as well. He's the only thing going right for the Rams, but he is not enough to make the world right in St. Louis. But at least the Cardinals are probably going to win the NL Central. Right? Predicted Record 1-15.

It's August 12th, 2010 and time for my annual football picks. This time it will be in blog form:

Preseason Football Picks
NE "The runningback by committee didn't work last year, it really didn't work in '08 either, do we really think it's going to work in '10? I don't think so."
2008 Ranked 6th overall in rushing, 2009 ranked 12th overall in rushing; 8th in Rushing TD's...i would consider that "working"
HOU "Their offense is a very large question mark"
Ranked 3rd overall in 2008, 4th overall in 2009; 1st in Passing yards...consider also the return of TE Owen Daniels, couple that with a more experienced and healthier, albeit still young, offensive line...i think 7 wins is a major underestimation.
DAL "the best defensive line"
I patently disagree with this statement, while they ranked 4th against the run in 2009, they ranked 9th in overall Defense and 7th overall in Sacks...additionally, they fail to produce any significant amount of turnovers. Dallas does indeed have a stout defense, make no mistake...but the best line....i think not, i would have to agree with a previous poster and say hands down Minnesota takes that honor. I would also say keep an eye on Chicago's D-Line in 2010 (Disclaimer: Bear fan) with the addition of Peppers, a healthy Tommie Harris, and emerging as a solid talent Anderson opposite of Peppers...they have a chance to make a significant impact in 2010.
PHI "Kolb, McCoy, and Jackson are a great 1-2-3 punch and they are young, so they have room to grow."
The NFL historically has never been an "on-the-job" type of work environment, because of the abundance of youth and lack of experience on this team i feel Philly will struggle more than most anticipate...although i do agree there is a wealth of talent between these three, i think it will take some time for this team to mesh.
GB "The Packer defense was amazing to start the season, last year"
This is incorrect, 4 of the 5 losses GB suffered in 2009 came in the first half of the year, allowing more than 30 points in all of those games...they did however come alive in the second half of the year allowing only 1 opponent to eclipse 30 points
MIN "I mean, you can't expect last years performance to continue to be the norm, can you?"
Why not? with virtually the same team returning, and considering last year they had a very young and inexperienced recieving corps; rookies Rice and Harvin, returning with NFL experience....why not expect a similar performance?
"but their defense needs to make some repairs."
ranked 6th overall in 2009, 1st against the run...and considering they targeted a DB with their first overall pick in the 2010 draft to address their secondary needs, i can't see what needs repairing.
CHI "Forte had a great season last year"
is there some other Forte i don't know about? Matt Forte with the Chicago Bears, ranked 18th overall in 2009, averaged a mediocre 3.6 yds per carry last year and a miserable 58 yds per game...however, they did bring in Chester Taylor to compete for playing time which doesn't seem to factor in your prediction, i do agree however that Chicago's offense has a HUGE question mark looming as a result of the addition of Martz...but to dismiss it as a total failure is quite a statement, especially when the cornerstones of the offense have in their pasts enjoyed great success. Also left out of your analysis are the additions of Julius Peppers, Mike Tyse, and rookie Major Wright...i can only assume you failed to include them because you feel they have no impact on the success/failure of the team...i would disagree.
CAR "D'Angelo Williams and is also not the answer"
Arguably the best running back tandem in the NFL, they were ranked first among all teams that featured a RB tandem in 2009 and CAR ranked 3rd overall rushing offense. With Delhomme throwing 18 int's and only 8 TD's through CAR's first 11 games you have to think that a change at QB can only mean improvement...it's hard to be an NFL QB and be worse than that; exception: any QB franchised by Al Davis. considering they went 8-8 last year, i think it's fair to say they at least tie, if not improve upon, that record.
ARI "The loss of Kurt Warner wont hurt as much as the loss of "
While the loss of both SIGNIFICANTLY impact this team, there is no way Warner is less of a loss, well maybe he would be if it weren't Leinart replacing him, but indeed it is Leinart and this spells disaster for ARI. With the lack of an established Run game, the loss of Boldin, and the loss of Warner...Fitzgerald remaind the lone elite player on this team. Couple that with the losses of Dansby and Rolle on the defensive side and you have a recipe for disaster, i think 8 wins for ARI is VERY generous, i would cap their victories at 4-5, and that's only because of their weak division.
I agree with many of your Division leaders, but not all...and as outlined above i overwhelmingly disagree with much of your analysis, and in some case your assessments are outright contrary to facts. I like the Pat's over the Jet's, The Bengals over the Ravens, i think it can go either way with Houston or Indy, and Cowboys or Giants, and i like Minnesota slightly over Green Bay...Minnesota has proven they can beat them....twice. As far as Balimore in the SB...there's not a Snowman's chance in Texas that's gonna happen :)

Horsemeat scandal: are consumers to blame?
The horsemeat scandal is widening in Europe. Supermarkets in not just Sweden, but also Britain, Ireland, and France have been recalling packages of food because their labels aren't accurately reflecting what lies inside.
For example, Findus-brand frozen lasagna, which promises to contain 100 per cent beef meat, wound up containing horsemeat. The horsemeat is reported to have come from Romania through a complicated supply chain – involving France, Luxembourg, the Netherlands and Cyprus, and now many of the parties within that supply chain are threatening lawsuits against each other.
Who should be held responsible, and how can consumers know that what they are putting in their mouths is what they think it is?
Radio Sweden interviews Björn Bernhardson from Äkta Vara, a group lobbying for better food quality. He believes there is plenty of blame to go around, because there is so much pressure to keep prices low. Bernhardson also believes the more locally people and producers source their food, the more control they will have over it.

VIEWS: 5 PAGES: 16 CATEGORY: Image Analysis POSTED ON: 4/16/2012 Public Domain
FIELD OF THEINVENTION This invention concerns a system for visualizing contrast flow of fluids through vessels during an angiography.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION X-ray angiography is performed to obtain an image of a vascular structure of a patient. An angiography enables a healthcare practitioner to obtain an image of particular blood vessels that supply blood to major organs such as the heart andbrain, for example. Once obtained, the healthcare professional is able to review the flow of blood through the target vascular structures for diagnostic purposes. For example, angiographic images enable a healthcare professional to diagnose pathologyof vessels such as blockage caused by plaque build up. Angiographic x-ray imaging operates similarly to conventional x-ray in that x-rays are generated by an x-ray tube and as they pass through the body part being imaged, they are attenuated (weakened) at different levels. These differences inx-ray attenuation are then measured by a detector and the resulting image is recorded. The images are recorded successively thereby providing a series of moveable images able to viewed by the practitioner over time enabling the practitioner to evaluatethe flow of blood through the target vasculature. The series of images, sometimes referred to as an angiography scene, are either viewed in real time on a display or stored for later review and evaluation. Angiography differs from conventional x-rayprocedures in that during an angiography, a stream of contrast agent (dyes) is injected into the vessels to create detailed images of the vessels in real time. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) is a computer-aided image processing method used to enhance vasculature images in which each pixel of data acquired in an x-ray angiography procedure is digitized. DSA relies on the comparison betweenimages taken immediately preceding an injection of a contrast bolus (mask image) and those obtained as the contrast bolus is passing through the targ

Construction of 23,836-square-foot estate home begins in Prato at Talis Park
Van Emmerik Custom Homes Inc. has started construction of a 23,836-square-foot under roof residence in Talis Park's Prato estate home neighborhood. This home is situated on a one-acre site purchased for $1.5 million, one of the top 10 residential non-waterfront, non-acreage North Naples home site sales within the last five years.
Limited to 24 homesites, Prato offers Park Estate Homes built by Talis Park's participating custom builders that are the flagship residences of Talis Park. Prato's one-of-a-kind residences range from 4,500 to over 20,000 square feet on 125-by-175-foot homesites and start at $2.5 million. Eight estate homesites remain available in Prato.
Van Emmerik's Prato estate residence features a transitional Mediterranean design by Weber Design Group Inc. The exterior of the home will showcase bold Tuscan features, including arched windows and entry surrounds, radial precast columns, trellised terraces and smooth stucco walls.
The two-story design includes four bedrooms upstairs, two downstairs, additional bedrooms in a separate two-story guesthouse, a two-story living room with a fireplace, a formal dining room, exercise and craft rooms, a two-story island kitchen, a family room opening to an outdoor living area designed and landscaped by Pat Trefz of Outdoor Productions Inc., a two-story office connected to the home by a covered breezeway, and two-car garages at the main house and guest house.
"We're building this home with all concrete construction, including concrete block walls with poured cores and steel reinforcement, precast concrete floors, poured exterior decks, precast exterior details and concrete arches," said Chris van Emmerik of Van Emmerik Custom Homes. "A breathable wall system, dehumidification system and Icynene insulation in the attic will eliminate potential water intrusion issues. The home will be energy efficient. We're including low-E insulated glass windows and multiple gas water heaters. We're very excited about this project and to know this home will be in Talis Park. The design offers unique features. It's a very impressive home."
"The owner stressed two things," said Bill Weber, president of Weber Design Group Inc. "He wanted a one-of-a-kind home that is unique and he wanted privacy for himself and his wife. The children's bedrooms, their craft room and outdoor terrace are located upstairs. The kitchen and family room are separated from the master suite and her study by the living room. A wide, 120-foot gallery hallway runs from one end of the home to the other. At one end, 10-foot-tall French doors open to a breezeway leading to the guest house. So the design provides the separation the owner requested along with indoor and outdoor areas that will be enjoyed by the entire family."
The home's architectural memory points will begin at a front entry with a five-element stone-clad finish, a mahogany double-door and an arched glass surround with multilevel precast trim. A two-story foyer will be overlooked by a Juliet balcony, a rotunda ceiling with a two-tiered exposed beam detail and a motorized chandelier. The foyer will open to a gathering area with a ceiling detail of its own, a sweeping two-story staircase and a salon off a powder room. Marble columns will frame a two-story arched opening leading to the central hallway and into the living room.
The two-story living room will feature a grid format beamed ceiling that will convey a rustic feeling. An 18.5-foot fireplace will continue the Tuscan motif with corbels and an arched diamond glass mirror flanked by precast columns. Tall windows will overlook a landscaped pool with a pond that rolls directly up to the windows. Two openings off the living room will lead to a formal dining room separated from the kitchen by a gallery hallway. A wet bar and wine safe will be located off the dining room.
The kitchen's vaulted, two-story ceiling will feature exposed beams and a suspended light bar over a long island. Windows over the cook top will flood the space with natural light. An adjacent family room will include an entertainment center, a custom window configuration and pocketing sliders leading outside.
The home's central hallway will lead to her study and then to a master suite vestibule with a morning bar. A second vestibule will lead to his-and-her master baths and a spa room. The master bath vestibule's 60-foot long line of sight will culminate with a view of a walled courtyard just beyond the spa's floor to beam-height windows that include a coupler that will fill the space with natural light. One of the glass panels will provide access to the courtyard's garden and outdoor shower. The spa will feature a cascading circular tub with a waterfall and spillover and a walk-through steam shower with specialty lighting.
The master suite will open to a breezeway leading to a two-story office. An L-shaped water feature will wrap around one corner of the office structure. The breezeway office entry will open to a conference room with a wine cooler, built-in desks and a rest room. Twenty-eight feet of glass will pocket out of sight with the push of a button and open the room to a series of water features and Prato's golf course views. The second floor will offer a private place of reflection and include pocketing sliders opening to a terrace overlooking the pool.
Outdoor Productions has created an incredible outdoor living area and pool replete with planters, specialty lighting, water features and a massive covered lanai. The covered space will include a full bar, lounge area, a kitchen and dining area, roll down screens and a pool bath. A fireplace will be equipped with a stainless steel encased retractable television. The pool will include a stepping-stone pathway that leads to a spa.
A 62-foot gallery hallway on the home's second floor will include a bridge that overlooks the foyer and separates the children's living quarters from a gathering area and exercise room. The second floor will also include a children's den with a snack bar and an outdoor terrace that will feature a trellis and fireplace.
The two-story guesthouse will include a great room, dining room and an island kitchen with bar seating. Tall sliders will open the great room to a covered lanai featuring an arched concrete beam detail. Two guest suites and a flex room will be included on the second floor.
Construction of the residence is expected to take approximately two years.
Talis Park's neighborhoods offer the possibility of living in a park-like setting or in a maintenance-free environment within walking distance of the community's village center. This "in the park" or "in the village" approach reflects developer Kitson & Partners' commitment to creating a New Fashioned community where every aspect of country club living is relevant to the residents' daily lives. The neighborhoods are being crafted by Southwest Florida's finest custom homebuilders and present all-new home designs in Spanish eclectic, Italian Renaissance and Colonial Caribbean architectural styles. The new designs are the result of a design partnership with Stofft Cooney and Herscoe Hajjar Architects that has produced over 20 Portfolio Plans exclusively for Talis Park. The availability of the Portfolio Plans provides newly-created designs priced from the $700s into the millions.

I was taken into one by Maurice, a gnarled old Vietnam vet in a wooly hat.
The young who are not gnarled and knocked around by the old fights are tired of the overtones of special pleading.
Hard-caught game gets something feral and gnarled—Côte-Rôtie or a leathery Hermitage.
the source of the group of words that includes gnarl (v.), gnarl (n.), gnarly is Shakespeare's use of gnarled in 1603:
Thy sharpe and sulpherous bolt Splits the vn-wedgable and gnarled Oke. ["Measure for Measure," II.ii.116]OED and Barnhart call it a variant of knurled, from Middle English knar "knot in wood" (late 14c.), originally "a rock, a stone;" of uncertain origin. "(Gnarled) occurs in one passage of Shakes. (for which the sole authority is the folio of 1623), whence it came into general use in the nineteenth century" [OED].
"contort, twist," 1814, a back-formation from gnarled. As a noun from 1824. Earlier the verb was used in a sense of "to snarl" (1590s).

16 and Pregnant Update: Kayla Jackson Is Miss Independent
Kayla Jackson is one of the most mature ladies we've met on MTV's 16 and Pregnant!
As we learned from MTV's 16 and Pregnant: Where Are They Now, Kayla moved out of her mom's house and rented an apartment with her best friend, Lauren.
She works two jobs to pay her bills, and only sleeps two hours a night!
So, who takes care of Baby Preston during Kayla's busy work day? That would be her ex-boyfriend, Mike Schwig. These two broke up shortly after the cameras left, but they remain friends and Mike even moved in with Kayla when he needed a place to crash!
Even though Kayla says Mike's a great dad, she insists that they just aren't meant to be. The problem? Kayla's worried that Baby Preston will get used to both his parents living together, and will be dissapointed when Mike eventually moves out.
Sigh, no one ever said teen parenthood was easy!
Watch Kayla's original 16 and Pregnant episode here, and the Where Are They Now special here.

Workplace Violence: Training Young Workers in Preventive Strategies By Sheila Arbury Small business should be alert to the risk of robbery coupled with criminal assaults on their employees. To address this danger, each business should have an established workplace violence prevention plan and train employees in measures to prevent these crimes and to protect their safety. Young workers, who typically have less work experience than older employees, particularly need training on prevention of workplace violence. This article will offer suggestions on training these young workers, but employers can – and should - use this training for all employees. In 2003, the Bureau of Labor Statistics announced that there were 631 workplace homicides, an increase from 609 in 2002. The leading cause of these deaths was violence associated with robbery. Of the 631 homicides, 73 were workers under 25 years of age. The numbers reveal the types of businesses where these young workers are killed: in 1998-2002 when there were 306 homicides of young workers, 165 occurred in retail trade. 132 of these deaths were workers in food stores, and eating and drinking places, two important types of small business. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has issued guidelines for preventing workplace violence in late-night retail establishments. These guidelines are useful not only for late-night retail, but also for other types of small business as well. The guidelines and the information provided here are advisory in nature, informational in content, and intended to help employers establish effective workplace violence prevention programs adapted to their specific workplaces. As an employer, your first consideration is to apply preventive measures in your workplace. These preventive measures include engineering and administrative and work practice controls. Engineering controls decrease or remove the hazard from the workplace or create a barrier between the worker and the hazard. Examples are: alarm systems, metal detectors, closed-circuit video recording, limited access, bright lighting inside and out and windows that provide clear views of the business's interior. Administrative and work practice controls describe procedures and practices that can help prevent violent incidents. Examples are: adequate staffing, training, security officers, hours of operation, and cash handling policies. Your second consideration is to develop an emergency plan of action. Ensure that employees know emergency phone numbers and other necessary information. Discuss emergency procedures: Is there a panic button? Is there a height tape at the door to assist description of fleeing criminals? Do employees have distinct tasks during an emergency incident? Practice emergency response to several different events. Employees should C:\Documents and Settings\Ted Michaels\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\OLK160\Workplace Violence Article.doc 4/9/2008 4:51 PM (1) understand that thorough preparation can prevent violence or reduce its effect. Your emergency plan should be readily available to your employees. Your third consideration is employee training about workplace violence. This training plan should contain at a minimum the following elements: • Description and/or demonstration of engineering and administrative and work practice controls • Discussion and practice of your emergency plan. • Instruction in behavior that will increase an employee's chance of staying safe when facing a situation that could result in violence. Young workers often work in service jobs that require contact with the public and exchange of money - both risk factors for workplace violence. Often they are new employees and uncertain how to behave at work. They may never consider that armed robbery could occur in their workplace. As their employer, you should help them think through how they would respond if this happened. Instruct them to protect themselves; tell them to: • Stay calm • Don't stare at the perpetrator: it makes him nervous • Speak before moving - explain what you're doing, for example, "I am going to move to the counter now" • Don't move suddenly • Don't argue with the perpetrator • Don't go with the perpetrator. Tell him "I'll give you the money, but I have to stay here." • Follow emergency procedures as practiced Protecting young workers and preventing workplace violence are outreach and training emphasis areas for OSHA and the agency has developed website resources for both topics. The Teen Worker webpage contains resources directed specifically at teens, parents, teachers, and employers. The Workplace Violence Safety and Health Topic Page presents information about workplace violence from OSHA and other agencies such as the U.S. Department of Justice and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and from organizations such as the Universities of Iowa, Minnesota, and California.

Inside Story | 27 Feb 2011 13:48 GMT | Libya
" />
Speaking from Tripoli's old city ramparts, Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi promised to open weapons depots to arm all Libyan people and tribes to defend the nation against what he calls "saboteurs" - those who have taken control of large parts of the country.
As Gaddafi stubbornly refuses to relent and violently cracks down on the thousands who protest his rule, he is banking on the loyalty of his close circle. Among them, his sons and key security officials.
But as some of those close to him continue to defect - how important is his remaining inner circle to his survival? Who exactly are they - and will they stick around?
Inside Story, with presenter Imran Garda, discusses with Nouri al-Masmari, the former head of Gaddafi's Protocol; Mahmuod el-Shama, a Libyan writer and journalist; and John Hamilton, the director of Cross Border Information and a Libya analyst.
This episode of Inside Story aired from Saturday, February 26, 2011.

Compromise Suggested For Early Voting Debate
Controversy continues over the lack of weekend voting hours planned for this November's election.
The in-person, early voting option that was available on weekends in many counties in 2008 has been wiped out in laws recently passed by Ohio's Republican dominated legislature. Peg Rosenfield with the Ohio League of Women Voters says some good government groups have suggested a compromise to Secretary of State Jon Husted.
Rosenfield - A group of the advocates said to open up in person voting on the last two weekends in October on Saturday and Sunday. But any county that feels they really don't need it and votes unanimously to opt out could get a waiver so if a county says "no, we don't need to be open, we don't have long lines and we can't afford it" fine - they get a waiver and that takes care of the problem.
Ingles - What kind of response have you gotten to that suggestion?
Rosenfield - None.
Last week, Secretary of STate Jon Husted directed all county boards of elections to hold the same hours for in person early voting. No weekends were included in that schedule. Still, Democrats continue to push for weekend voting. They note in 2008, 93 thousand Ohioans voted on the Saturday, Sunday and Monday before Election Day.

from Doing What I Do: An Interview With Elmore Leonard by Anthony May (Contrappasso #2, December 2012)
Dates: 1st-3rd July, 1991
Location: Elmore Leonard's home in Birmingham, Michigan. The interview took place in Leonard's study across his writing desk.
MAY: We were talking earlier about the time before you started working with Gregg Sutter, and the research that you used to do for yourself. Were there any sorts of reference books that were useful or was that done from more contingent sources, like you said about picking up material off MTV? Did you have any books that you would go to like crime reports or things like that? Did they help?

1795 Small Eagle Five, AU551795 $5 Small Eagle AU55 NGC. BD-2, R.6. The simplistic terminology -- Small Eagle and Large Eagle (or Heraldic Eagle) -- belies the considerable complexity of the 1795-dated half eagles. There are 12 varieties or die pairings of the 1795 Small Eagle type (most of them rare, at a minimum) and three of the 1795 Large Eagle, making 15 die varieties between the two major Guide Book types. (The 1795 Large Eagle coins are believed to have been struck in 1798.) The half eagle was the first gold coinage denomination struck at the fledgling U.S. Mint -- and by far the most important, as it turned out to be throughout much of the 19th century. The quarter eagle was minted sporadically and in low numbers when it was minted at all, the eagle was discontinued after 1804 until 1838, and the double eagle was not even introduced until 1849-50.
Very Rare BD-2 Variety
Very Rare BD-2 Variety
The 1795 Small Eagle fives were produced in an even dozen varieties, despite the fairly small recorded mintage of 8,707 pieces. The large number of dies used, eight obverses and nine reverses, reflects the Mint's inexperience with die hardening, which led to die failures in the first few years of Mint history that were much more frequent than later on.
The 1795 Small Eagle BD-2 shows star 1 touching but somewhat under the lowest hair curl, star 11 touching the Y of LIBERTY and star 12, and the flag of the 5 barely over the drapery. On the reverse, the wreath opening is just left of the O in OF, and the tip of one palm leaf touches the lower-left serif of the N in UNITED while the longest palm leaf extends to just beneath the lower-right serif.
A blush of orange appears over the prevailing yellow-gold color on the surfaces of this Choice AU NGC-graded example. The lack of mentionable marks points up the quaint 15 Stars obverse to maximal advantage, even though faint high-point wear is perceptible on each side. The interiors of ES show some faint copper-colored alloy spots, but the reverse is equally distraction-free. An attractive example of this very rare and important early gold variety.

NEW YORK -- Ready to return from the disabled list, New York Yankees reliever Brian Bruney blamed an 8½-minute wait during an umpires' video review for causing a strained flexor muscle in his right elbow.
Bruney went on the disabled list April 25, six days after he was warming up in the bullpen during the seventh inning when umpires checked video before upholding a home run by teammate Jorge Posada. Bruney then entered in the eighth and got three outs.
"Major League Baseball needs a way to figure out if it's a home run or not," Bruney said Monday. "It shouldn't take 8½ minutes, and I think that's what screwed me up."
Bruney pitched just once after the April 19 game, throwing an inning on April 21 before going on the DL. He said it was obvious to him from the first replay that Posada's drive just over the right-field wall against Indians reliever Jensen Lewis was a home run.
He called the players' association and learned only then that replays are provided to umpires from a central location.
"I don't know what the 8½ minutes was all about," he said. "I don't know if like somebody was on lunch break or what."
Bruney kept on warming up, not sure how long it would take for umpires to return to the field.
"I could have quit throwing, I could have waited and started again," he said. "I don't know if he's coming out in 30 seconds or 3 minutes or 8½ minutes. It turned about to be the latter. I mean, that's a long time for a reliever to be throwing or any pitcher to be throwing."
Bruney allowed one run in one inning during a minor league rehab appearance Sunday and is slated to be activated Tuesday.
Mike Port, Major League Baseball's vice president of umpiring, declined comment on Bruney's allegation.
Chien-Ming Wang, on the DL since April 24, threw seven shutout innings during a minor league rehab start Sunday and is to throw a bullpen session in New York on Tuesday.
Wang was 0-3 with a 34.50 ERA in three starts this year after missing the final 3½ months of last season with a foot injury. The Yankees said he had weakness in the abductor muscles in his hips and replaced him in the rotation with Phil Hughes, who is 1-2 with a 7.56 ERA.
Wang's velocity has been about 88-92 mph, down from 92-94 mph last year.
"There was some inconsistency in his sinker. We want to see him, see how he's doing, and then we'll make a decision after that," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.
New York outfielder Brett Gardner had an MRI that showed he had a bruised right rotator cuff. Gardner was hurt in the ninth inning Sunday when he tried to score from second on Francisco Cervelli's sharp grounder up the middle that bounded off the glove off Twins reliever Jose Mijares. The ball was picked up by catcher Joe Mauer, who scampered back to make the tag as both players dove headfirst for the plate.
Girardi said Gardner likely would be unavailable for Monday's series finale against Minnesota.
Posada, on the DL since May 5 with a hamstring injury, was headed back to New York from Tampa, Fla., to continue his rehabilitation. Rain was forecast for Florida later this week.

This week, the FDA warns of real Viagra in supposedly all natural supplements, a survey finds less than half of adults polled in Japan had sex in the last month, and we theorize about what method of contraception was available to the ladies of Downton Abbey.
As a longtime advocate for quality child care, I was heartened to hear President Obama's forceful words on the matter during his State of the Union address. It occurred to me that it had been more than 40 years since a U.S. president had so visibly addressed the issue—and on that occasion, the message had been very different.
As more people share their abortion stories this year, let's ensure the policy agenda advocates are pushing for addresses the full spectrum of needs laid bare in these stories.
The agenda is "a powerful platform for us to really organize ourselves, to speak on our own behalf, and to be at the table when decisions are being made about us," said La'Tasha Mayes, founder and executive director at New Voices Pittsburgh.
The president signed an executive order to give federal employees up to six weeks of paid family leave after the birth, adoption, or foster placement of a new child.
"The tax code today is stacked in favor of people who make money off of money and against those who make money off of hard work," Rep. Chris Van Hollen said in a speech this week.
By sharing my story, I hope I can make other families in similar situations feel represented.
Only when our society acknowledges what Black women are doing and have been doing to advance equality for all will people truly understand why Black lives matter.
Even as it championed midwives in a recent piece, the New York Times editorial board unwittingly slipped into language that suggests midwifery care is a second-tier option—language that reflects broader public attitudes throughout the United States.
Federal early child-care and education policies must require states to raise caretaker and teacher salaries, or else qualified workers will continue to struggle, earn less than they deserve for this vital work, or leave the field, while the children—at their most critical development stage—will receive lower quality care.

Went here for dyngus day, so fun to be outside and enjoy seeing thing that wouldn't normally happen here on a daily basis.
We lived around this area years ago and came back for a visit. The Central Terminal has always been an amazing architectural wonder yet it is so run down as is the area. The snow (black) is piled up around the area and was so incredibly unbelievable we had to take a picture. The adjacent buildings where the post office...
We did a guided tour hour - amazing building, rich history and architecture. Not much else to it, but if you love old buildings and this cities history, then it's well worth a stop.
The Buffalo Central Terminal is a very historical nice building. However, It is pretty run down over the years and is not in the best neighborhood to go into. I would LOVE to give this a higher ratting, but unfortunately the building is privately owned, and because of that it is hard to get it restored due to money. At...
Was here on Labor Day, not much to it was closed, but the outside very worn out,
Located in bad area of Buffalo, I really question why they are trying to save this structure, it will costs hundreds of millions, and still no trains come here.
Save the stuff inside put in another local museum.
I'd seen the BCT when travelling to Buffalo for Labor Day weekend. I thought given the history of this place that it would be something very grand and marvelous, it turns out I was wrong. Architecturally speaking, this looks impressive from a distance but when one comes up close to it, they will realize it is very deteriorated and essentially...
What a great piece of history. You're not going to spend hours there but to see its sights and let your imagination go to a time 50+ years ago? Not many better nostalgic places...
I didn't like anything about this city.
This building is ok but nothing special .
In the winter it's the most depressing place .
The food in the restaurants is very fattening and the portions huge for no reason .
The outlet there doesn't have quality stuff , the view of the falls is ugly from this side.
It's better...
Once a grand terminal it is now in a vast state of decay. Tours are held here to generate revenue for its revitalization and much needed repair.
Great old building in the middle of a war zone. Sad to see what the area once was when the homes were filled with proud hard working Polish American families. Would have been a great spot for a casino. If the city had the fore site the Seneca Casino would have fit here perfectly.

A Santa Rosa County Sheriffs lieutenant who has been in jail since Tuesday is facing additional charges.
John Mitchell Tomlinson, 46 of Navarre, was charged with five counts of sexual battery on a new victim, according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.
Tomlinson was initially arrested Tuesday for 120 counts of sexual battery on a child between the ages of 12 and 18. He will be tried in Walton County because he was the head of Santa Rosa Countys court security when he was arrested.
Sheriff Wendell Hall placed Tomlinson on paid administrative leave when he was arrested, according to Marc Ward with the Santa Rosa County Sheriffs Office.
Tomlinson is expected to remain on leave until the criminal process is resolved, he said.
"If these allegations are true, I will be very disappointed in Lt. Tomlinsons behavior," Sheriff Wendell Hall said in a statement. "However, if hes found guilty he should be punished like any other person that commits this type of crime."
When questioned about why Tomlinson was not put on leave when the allegations came to light back on March 3, Ward declined to comment. Ward said he would provide an answer at a later date. At press time, the question remained unanswered.

I think the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.
