Guess Where Fair and Transparent Hospital Prices Exist?
Britain has long had an active cash market for medical care provided by private hospitals, which helps people get around the long waits in the National Health Service, and also serve people from abroad.
Nuffield Hospitals advertises firm, fixed, all-inclusive prices good for 60 days after an initial consultation. For more complex procedures, one pays for the initial consultation and the hospital develops the price from that. The Nuffield price generally includes post-operative care, rehab, and required readmissions.
Like Walmart, Nuffield will match competitor prices under reasonable conditions — "If you find an alternative private hospital in your local area offering a better price for the same surgical intervention, sold with the same service conditions, we'll lower our price to equal it." The conditions require the other private hospital be within 15 miles of the Nuffield hospital, exclude NHS private patient prices and require a written quote.
Bupa offers private insurance, elder care, and private hospitalization. Beneficiaries of its Health Cash Plan pay providers, send Bupa the bill and receive the Bupa contract amount in cash. Bupa advertises no pre-authorizations to see specialists and 24/7 phone consultation with nurses and GPs.

What To Do With Wet Raingear
I'm kind of dumb and I ask dumb questions sometimes and this may be one of them. In addition to my off-road adventures I usually commute. Except I drive a cage when there's more than a 30% chance of rain. The main reason is that I just don't really know what to do with soaked rain gear when I get to work! It's not like I have a mud-room in my office or somewhere to hang a rain suit so it can dry. But it seems like if you stuffed it into a bag it'd get wet inside as well. Then, when you put it back on to go home you'd be soaked. What brilliant solutions have my fellow inmates come up with to address this?
Do you work for the government?
I ride year round, just hang 'em up in my cube to drip-dry.
Like cris^^^ I'm a year-round NW WA rider, I hang my gear up when I get to work, by the time I leave they're dry again. Simple.
Occam's Razor- the simplest solution is usually the correct one. Thanks!

Country Whuppin' – Lauren Alaina Vs. Joe Nichols
Jon Pardi was stopped just short of the Country Whuppin' Hall of Fame by his labelmate and 2-time Hall of Famer, Lauren Alaina. Lauren takes her newly won championship into battle with Joe Nichols!
Jon Pardi was stopped just short of the Country Whuppin' Hall of Fame by his labelmate and 2-time Hall of Famer, Lauren Alaina. Lauren takes her newly won championship into battle with Joe Nichols!
Jon Pardi is one win away from the Country Whuppin' Hall of Fame! To make that happen, he'll have to beat someone who's made it there twice. Let's see if the Pardianimals can hold off Lauren Alaina's new single in today's Whuppin'!
Three wins down for Jon Pardi and two more to go to make the Country Whuppin' Hall of Fame. 'Up All Night' gained a very decisive win over Dakota Bradley, and now it faces off with another 'night' song from singer/songwriter, Eric Paslay!
Jon Pardi now has two wins as champion of Country Whuppin' scoring a major upset over Lady Antebellum. Today he's back in the ring facing the young, spry Dakota Bradley. Who will win?
Jon Pardi has become the new champion of the Country Whuppin,' using the strength of his #pardianimals! With 57% of the vote over Morgan Frazier, Pardi rides his win into enemy territory facing the second single from the new 'Golden' album from Lady Antebellum.
Morgan Frazier is the queen of the comeback so far in her run as champion. She overcame being defeated in the call-in portion of voting to overtake Lee Brice with the online vote and move on to win number two. She may get win number three, but only if she can turn back the challenge from Jon Pardi.
With an amazing last minute comeback, Morgan Frazier has taken over as the Country Whuppin' champ, leaving JB and the Moonshine Band just short of the Hall of Fame. But now Morgan must move on and face the challenge to come as she faces the new single from Lee Brice!
With some of the most impressive wins we've seen so far, JB and the Moonshine Band is one win away from making the Hall of Fame. It won't be an easy task, as JB faces a newcomer that's getting a lot of attention, Morgan Frazier.
Three wins so far for JB and the Moonshine Band, as they have their sights set on the Hall of Fame, but to get there, they will have to get past a former Hall of Fame member, and one 'Crazy' girl at that, JoAnna Smith!
The little band that could continues their winning ways in the Country Whuppin', as JB and the Moonshine Band rolls on to another day as champion. Can they hold off the guy who opens the Jason Aldean Night Train Tour, Thomas Rhett and his new single?
In what has to be considered a major upset, The McCreerians barely fell short on the voting, as JB and the Moonshine Band picked up the win. The band continues to look for wins as they face a new touching ballad from Chris Cagle.
After another big victory over Kacey Musgraves, Scotty McCreery continues on the winning path as the Country Whuppin' champ! Today he's taking on the group known as JB and the Moonshine Band.

From the New York Times, June 23, 1982:
At the Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing, however, both Mr. Begin and several senators were said by participants at the meeting to have been bristling with anger….The bitterest exchange was said to have been between Mr. Begin and Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr., Democrat of Delaware, who told the Israeli leader that he was not critical of the Lebanon operation but felt that Israel had to halt the policy of establishing new Jewish settlements in the West Bank….
After the meeting, Mr. Begin said: "I enjoyed the session very much. I believe in liberty, that free men should freely discuss problems and if they have differences of opinion they should voice them in sincerity."
"I said it was a lively discussion," he said. "If you want to use other adjectives. …" He paused, then said, "Lively is enough."
From the New York Times, June 24, 1982:
Reporting on his meetings with the members of Congress, Mr. Begin said one of the senators had threatened to cut off aid if Israel continued creating settlements in the West Bank. The senator is reported to have been Joseph R. Biden Jr., Democrat of Delaware,
Mr. Begin cited the incident to give voice to a feeling that is held in his entourage – that Israel has rendered military service to the United States in battle-testing American arms.
"Sir, do not threaten us with cutting aid," Mr. Begin said, in recounting his reply. "First of all, you should know that this is not a one-way street. You help us, and we are very grateful for your help, but this is a two-way street. We do a lot for you."
The Times did not report on the detail that Biden pounded on the table as he raged at Begin, but since I've actually seen Biden pound on a table several times in small meetings with journalists over the years, it sounds right to me.

Phil Taylor: The path to sporting greatness
Victory in Tuesday's PDC World Championship final gave Phil "The Power" Taylor a 16th title, to consolidate his place as the greatest ever darts player with a record that few other sportspeople can rival in their respective discipline.
Taylor, 52, needed every ounce of the mental strength which has seen him crush opponents on the way to 193 career titles to beat Dutchman Michael van Gerwen at Alexandra Palace on New Year's Day.
The triumph brings a 16th success in 25 years, which compares favourably to other greats such as Michael Schumacher's record of seven Formula 1 wins in 19 years and Kelly Slater's 11 world surfing titles.
It's an impressive achievement considering Van Gerwen, 29 years his junior, had won their last two encounters and been the form player in this year's showpiece event.
Taylor in numbers
- 2: Taylor came second in the 2010 BBC Sports Personality of the Year awards
- 9: The number of televised nine-dart finishes he has recorded
- 16: World championships won
- 52: Taylor's age on winning his 16th world title, the oldest ever PDC winner
- 74: The number of BDO and PDC major events won.
- 100: The number of matches played by Taylor at the PDC World Championship
- 118.66: Taylor's average score - the highest in the game's history - against Kevin Painter in 2010
- 119: Other tournaments won by 'The Power'
- £5,250,006: Taylor's total career earnings after taking the £200,000 winner's cheque on New Year's Day
Meanwhile, Taylor, who has taken the sport to new levels with long hours of practice that forced opponents into heavy scoring which required greater accuracy, had not won the world title since 2010, and his powers appeared to be declining with age.
During the last two years, he has experimented with glasses as his sight deteriorated and ditched his trusty darts for a new weighty set as he tried to reclaim his grip on the sport.
Taylor built a gym in his house so that he could train every day, took up swimming to aid weight loss and ensured he practised at least four hours a day, every day, before tucking himself up in bed by nine.
He even tried using a sports psychologist before coming to the conclusion that "you can't teach people to win, it's in you. You have either got it or you haven't".
The hard work paid off and the 52-year-old has successfully reinvented himself.
Born in Stoke, Taylor's supreme work ethic was clear to see early on. In his youth, he would spend hours pinging a golf ball up against the garden wall to improve his hand-eye coordination.
When he was old enough to get a job, the Port Vale fan would work in a factory crafting ceramic toilet holders during the day, pull pints in the evening and if there was any spare time left, he would turn his hand to repairing cars.
Taylor's early years
When Taylor was old enough to get a job, the Port Vale fan would work in a factory crafting ceramic toilet holders during the day, pull pints in the evening and if there was any spare time left, he would turn his hand to repairing cars
Taylor did not throw a dart until he was 26. On a night out with his wife Yvonne, he challenged a local lad who had recently qualified for an event on TV to a game in his local pub, owned by five-time world champion Eric Bristow, and won.
From there, he began to play more regularly and Bristow soon convinced him to take the game up full-time, even sponsoring him £10,000 so that he could quit his other jobs and completely dedicate himself to the game. Taylor did just that.
"He's superb, he's very dedicated and puts a lot of time into his sport," Bristow told BBC Radio 5 live. "He plays four, five or six hours a day, even now, thirty years on, so he's just a very dedicated player."
The man from Stoke won his first title - the Canadian Open - in his debut season in 1988 and picked up his first BDO world title two years later.
Another world championship followed before he moved to the PDC series and won 14 of the next 20 titles, including an unbeaten run between 1995 and 2002.
Taylor has said he lives, breathes and even dreams the sport, adding that he often wakes himself up twitching and throwing darts in his sleep.
How Taylor compares
- Michael Schumacher won seven world titles in a Formula 1 career that spanned 19 years
- Surfer Kelly Slater won his 11th title in 22 years last season
- MotoGP great Valentino Rossi has won nine titles
- Phil Taylor has 16 world titles in a career which has just entered its 25th year
And his refusal to entertain the thought of defeat - he came back from 2-0 and 4-2 down in Tuesday's final to become the oldest winner of the tournament - has seen him dominate the sport for the last two decades.
When he was asked what his secret was, Taylor replied: "Get four kids, it focuses your mind. You've got to provide for them and it's in that moment that you either win or lose."
It is that kind of mental focus which saw him offer his services to Fabio Capello when the Italian was in charge of the national football team. Taylor said: "So much of sport is that mental attitude. I would tell them what goes through my mind when it comes to lifting the title."
Taylor says he will return to defend his title in December, but Bristow thinks a record of 20 titles is out of reach.
"No, he won't get to 20 but there's most likely to be another one in him," said Bristow. "He is getting on a bit now. Van Gerwen is going to win a few. I think we have seen the newcomer coming through who's going to take over from Phil, but not yet."
Taylor disagrees, telling BBC Radio 5 live: "Could I get to 20? I'll try. I'll be back on the practice board tomorrow getting ready for next season.
"It is catching up with me, you do feel it, but as long as I keep myself fit, I can keep going."
Whether he wins another title or not, Taylor's record speaks for itself.

John, I do iron man distance so I was quoting that! Nobody us questioning the skill, but by definition it is a game!
Wasnt discussing entertainment, darts is entertaining but so is monopoly
Comment number 399. Posted by AVBs Negative Spiralon 4 Jan 2013 21:47
Psycho, you are exagerating the distances for an olympic triathlon, but that is not the point. It is indeed a remarkable achievement, but so is the ability to hit doubles and trebles on a dart board, under pressure and under studio lights.
And sorry, but in terms of entertainment the triathlon doesn't come close to the drama of the darts final, although it is nowhere near as dull as horse riding.
Comment number 398. Posted by BillyThe Fishon 4 Jan 2013 21:15
Rammig, I have a big barrel here you can scrape the bottom of! Having scored 180s it can't be that difficult!! You fancy 2.5 mile swim, 128 mile bike and a marathon?, oh and I do it in under 10 hrs, put your money where your mouth is. Brownlee would have finished top 20 in the 10k, won by Mo???
Comment number 397. Posted by rammigon 4 Jan 2013 20:47
Pyscho - triathlon requires fitness, darts requires skill. You not good enough to do either of 3 individually?! Same applies to the Brownlee's.
AE - bet most people could learn to jump a fence on a horse quicker than scoring 180!
Darts isn't my favourite sport but much more interesting than triathlon or horse racing
Comment number 396. Posted by Maksion 4 Jan 2013 20:47
If I had sat on the horses this McCoy had sat on I would also be Sports Personality of The Year.
That said, I couldn't hit a nine dart finish ( under serious pressure, or not) if I threw the ruddy darts for 50 years.
Sorry but Phil is the sporting GOAT. I always thought that but this latest victory, against a young brilliant player was astonishing. He won playing superbly too, and at age of 52.
Comment number 395. Posted by rammigon 4 Jan 2013 20:36
@394 Well said
AE - Taylor wins >90%, McCoy
Comment number 394. Posted by AVBs Negative Spiralon 4 Jan 2013 19:34
#391 do you have any evidence at all to back up your claim - perhaps you could tell us what percentage of his winners were in races where he was not given the fastest horse.
In Darts the best player wins, in racing the jockey on the best horse wins.
Comment number 393. Posted by BillyThe Fishon 4 Jan 2013 18:47
And Taylor plays a pub game, but we have covered that, and the concept seems too complex for you. Suggest you go down the pub and play a few games, and leave sport to sportsmen
Comment number 392. Posted by rammigon 4 Jan 2013 17:59
AE - Fact is McCoy loses >75% of the time and Taylor
Comment number 391. Posted by Andrew Evzonaon 4 Jan 2013 16:27
@390 "sits on the favourite every time he races"??...that's like saying Taylor gets to throw four darts to everyone elses three !! It doesn't happen...AP does ride favourites of course but I can assure you a very large percentage of his 3500 plus winners so far have not been favourite !
Far more research required....you follow ?
Comment number 390. Posted by Maksion 4 Jan 2013 16:23
If this fella McCoy is so good, how on earth does he manage to lose so often given he sits on the "favourite" every time he races?
His record is far from impressive if you ask me. Phils is amazing.
And it's a sport.
Comment number 389. Posted by Andrew Evzonaon 4 Jan 2013 14:55
@388 I feel you are spot-on with your comments there...and in fairness I would rather watch Darts than any reality TV programme or celebrity tosh which I never watch anyway,but would I really ever watch it in preference to any of the Sports I have already mentioned and many others which I have not...well....I don't think so !
Comment number 388. Posted by BillyThe Fishon 4 Jan 2013 14:46
I think we have established that Rammig has trouble thinking full stop.
My final word, definition of darts from t'internet
Darts is a form of throwing game in which darts are thrown at a circular target (dartboard) fixed to a wall.[2] The term "darts" usually now refers to a standardised game involving a specific board design and set of rules. darts is a traditional pub game.
Comment number 387. Posted by Andrew Evzonaon 4 Jan 2013 14:44
Rammig..please try to understand is is far more difficult being a NH jockey than being a Flat race jockey...and AP McCoy is the best NH jockey the world has ever seen.
Comment number 386. Posted by BillyThe Fishon 4 Jan 2013 14:31
Rammig, not off your "pub games are sports" band wagon yet?
We don't agree, never will, Taylor is the best player of all time, but is not in the same league as others mentioned on the list.
But as someone who thinks winning 18 Olympic golds is easy, you clearly don't understand real sports.
I am now off to train for my sport of Iron Man triathlon, real bottle required.
Comment number 385. Posted by rammigon 4 Jan 2013 13:07
@375 AE - Not off your McCoy bandwagon yet? To add to an earlier observation about him only being English champion and not World I'm sure the best jockeys run flat rather than jump as that is where the money is. He is darts version of the BDO versus the superior PDC!
@381 Psycho - why haven't you divulged what your sport is, it might require more energy but not the bottle of darts no doubt
Comment number 384. Posted by Andrew Evzonaon 4 Jan 2013 09:54
@383 it is...however realism is required here...what is the largest attendance for any Darts competition held ? Compare that with football,horse-racing,motor-racing,tennis,cricket and almost any other Sport you wish to mention ! Case closed.

Sorry but this is a discussion on the bbc sports page isn't it
Comment number 382. Posted by rocket180on 4 Jan 2013 01:15
Phil Taylor is a real living legend. great skill, superb under pressure, dedicated and a born winner and still doing it at 52. Darts hads skill, excitement, drama, great atmosphere and all round entertaintment with 2 professionals hitting each other with everthing they have. IF THATS NOT SPORT WHAT IS.
"Anyone can ride a bike , not everyone can hit a 9 darter"
Comment number 381. Posted by BillyThe Fishon 4 Jan 2013 00:40
Jon, Taylor is the best ever at what he does, no denying it. But it's a skill not a sport. For your info I am ranked in the top 20 in the world for my age group, at my sport, so be careful when you issue challenges!

AP PHOTOS: Rain Delays US Open Play
By Associated Press | August 28, 2013
Last Updated: August 28, 2013 7:22 pm
A rain delay Wednesday ate up most of the afternoon at the U.S. Open, postponing eight women's singles matches.
With the storm bearing down, video monitors around the Billie Jean King Tennis Center warned fans to seek shelter and avoid trees because of potential lightning, though thousands of ticketholders were milling about without much concern for severe weather.
Here's a gallery of images from the tournament.

Ronald Travis "Ronnie" Wright
Learn about removing the ads from this memorial...
Nov. 15, 1946
Shelby County
Tennessee, USA
Aug. 29, 2002
Dallas County
Texas, USA
Ronnie as his family called him was born to Haywood & Catherine Wright. He grew up on a 15 acre farm in the Oakhaven area of Shelby County. He had one brother, Haywood Wright, Jr. who was just 1 year, 2 weeks older than he was.
Ronnie loved Quail hunting and fishing. He and his dad, Haywood Sr. often went on hunting and fishing trips together.
As a child he won an award from Oakhaven Baptist Church for attendance of 3 years without missing a Sunday.
He graduated from Oakhaven High School in 1965. After being hired by American Airlines to work out of the new Memphis Airport in October of 1965, he was drafted into the U.S. Army in 1966.
After boot camp he was stationed in Germany. I don't remember the name of the place he was stationed but it was the same place Elvis was stationed.
While he was there he became pin pals with me, Lynn Waldrip. We wrote letters for about a year, usually I wrote three to his one. I always tried to make sure he got at least one letter every week. He asked me out in the last letter I got before he returned home in April, 1968. It was love at first site for both of us I guess. We were married on June 1, 1968.
He had returned to his job at American Airlines about 4 weeks after he returned home. His mom & dad gave us the down payment for a house for a wedding present and we moved into a home in Oakhaven on Beauchamp the day after our wedding. We had our honeymoon in the Spring of 1969, a trip to California to visit Disneyland, a place we both wanted to go since childhood.
In January of 1971 we welcomed our first daughter Katie (Katherine F. Mathews). In September of 1972 we welcomed our second daughter Kristie (Kristie W. Miles). I'm sad to say our marriage ended in divorce in 1983.
Ronnie remarried at one point after transfering to Texas. I'm not sure how long that union lasted.
After Shelby was born, our first grand daughter, we were able to put aside our differences and become friends. We talked on the phone a few times a year and even exchanged emails. He even volenteered us (without asking me first) to baby sit so Kristie & her husband could have an evening out when we both attended Shelby's birthday party in Atlanta one year.
Kristie had our 2 oldest grand daughters, Shelby & Kelly.
Katie had our youngest grand daughter Ashley. Saddly Ronnie did not get to live long enough to see Katie give birth to his little grand son Joey in 2005.

Nico's father, 1982 Champion Keke Rosberg, had an easy-going approach his intense son lacks. As well as an astonishing appetite for cigarettes. This is the only smoking you'll see Nico doing, locked up and off-line trying to keep his not-quite-on-the-pace Mercedes ahead of Alonso's not-quite-on-it-either Ferrari.

Sevcon Reports Financial Results for Third Quarter Fiscal 2013 SOUTHBOROUGH, Mass., Aug. 6, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sevcon, Inc. (Nasdaq:SEV) reported financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 ended June 29, 2013. Third-Quarter Fiscal 2013 Results Summary *Revenues were $8.7 million, compared with $8.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2012, reflecting ongoing mixed conditions in the Company's markets. *Operating income was $293,000, compared with $35,000 in the third quarter last year. Foreign currency fluctuations reduced operating income by $256,000 compared to the same period last year, due mainly to the weakness of the US dollar compared to the euro. Excluding the impact of currency, operating income was $514,000 higher than the same period last year. *There was an income tax charge of $47,000 compared with an income tax benefit of $99,000, in the same period last year. *Net income was $124,000, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared with net income of $156,000, or $0.05 per diluted share, a year earlier. Nine-Month Fiscal 2013 Results Summary *Revenues were $23.3 million, compared with $27.5 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2012. This decline reflected a continuation of product demand fluctuations in most of the Company's markets that began in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012. Foreign currency exchange rates were similar to last year's nine-month period and had little effect on reported sales. *Operating loss was $1.4 million, which includes a $605,000 restructuring charge in the second quarter of this fiscal year, compared with operating income of $982,000, which included $159,000 in U.K. government grant income, in the first nine months of last year. *Net loss was $1,116,000, or $(0.33) per share, compared with net income of $910,000, or $0.27 per diluted share, for the first nine months of fiscal 2012. Management Comments "Sevcon's third-quarter results were in line with our expectations," said President and CEO Matt Boyle. "Our traditional off-road business was up robustly year-over-year, particularly in Asia, despite continued weakness in the global mining sector. This growth was offset, however, by lower sales in our on-road business, primarily in Europe. At the same time, the restructuring initiatives we implemented in the second quarter are on track toward delivering the $2 million of annualized operating expense reduction that we anticipated." "We are continuing to expand our portfolio of relationships with OEM and automotive suppliers in Europe, Asia and North America," Boyle said. "Leveraging our industry-leading technology in close cooperation with our customers, we are continuing to develop new solutions for making electric vehicles safer, more convenient and cheaper to run. We were recently awarded a grant by the local government in the U.K., equivalent to $450,000, to assist in the development of a new range of high-voltage controls, which will offset engineering spend on this project. The grant covers an expected 18-month development and implementation program. We also recently launched the first product in what we envision as a full line of Gen4 DC controllers, which will encompass products in a variety of sizes similar to the sizes we cover with our successful Gen4 AC controllers. We expect our Gen4 DC products to be highly price and performance competitive and well-suited to a large number of applications, especially in the global off-road construction and distribution markets." "We believe that Sevcon is well-positioned for the challenges ahead," said Boyle. "Fundamentally, we are in the right place at the right time with our technology and products and with our expanding portfolio of OEM relationships, although our near-term visibility is cloudier than we would like. We are confident that, with our lower cost structure and conservative balance sheet, a more consistent recovery in end-market demand will enhance the operating leverage in our business. We remain committed to growth and improved profitability, and look forward to reporting continued progress toward these goals." Third Quarter Fiscal 2013 Conference Call Details Sevcon has scheduled a conference call to review its results for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 tomorrow, August 7, 2013 at 9:00 a.m. ET.

Final Score: (2) Alabama 52, Ole Miss 7
Oxford, MS (Sports Network) - Trent Richardson had a career night on the
ground for second-ranked Alabama, rushing for 183 yards and four touchdowns on
17 carries to help the Crimson Tide destroy the Ole Miss Rebels, 52-7.
Jalston Fowler carried the ball nine times for a career-high 125 yards and two
scores for the Crimson Tide (7-0, 4-0 SEC), who have won all seven of their
games thus far by 16 or more points.
"We knew their defense was going to come after us," Richardson said. "We knew
they were going to try and stop our passing game, so we had to balance it out.
We also knew their defensive line was going to crash as much as they can, so
we had to work in the middle."
A.J. McCarron completed 19-of-24 passes for 224 yards and a touchdown for
Alabama, which racked up 389 yards on the ground.
The 52 points scored by Alabama is the most by the Crimson Tide in an SEC game
since a 59-28 victory over Vanderbilt on September 29, 1990.
Randall Mackey connected on 10-of-21 passes for 113 yards and an interception
for the Rebels (2-4, 0-3), who were held to 28 yards rushing.
"No one has been able to tackle him consistently this year," Ole Miss head
coach Houston Nutt said of Richardson. "I do not care what team they are
playing against, they have a good offensive line and they do not have to ask
AJ McCarron to do too much. He is a tough running back and is one of the top
in the country. He should be a Heisman Trophy candidate."
The Rebels actually started the game with a five-play, 72-yard scoring drive.
Nickolas Brassell's 59-yard catch led to Jeff Scott's one-yard TD run for an
early 7-0 lead.
From there, Richardson and Alabama took over. Michael Williams and DeAndrew
White both made key third down catches on a nine-play, 79-yard march, which
Richardson capped with an eight-yard rushing TD.
The Crimson Tide took the lead for good with a 10-play scoring drive that
bridged the first and second quarters. On 4th-and-2 at the Ole Miss 31,
Richardson rushed for 10 yards and a fresh set of downs. Richardson capped the
drive with a seven-yard touchdown run for a 14-7 edge early in the second
Alabama tried to extend its lead with a 53-yard Cade Foster field goal, but
the attempt failed.
The ensuing Ole Miss possession resulted in Mackey being intercepted by Robert
Lester. Richardson carried the ball four straight times to put the ball at the
21 of the Rebels. A 24-yard Jeremy Shelley field goal gave Alabama a 17-7
margin with under 1 1/2 minutes left in the half.
The Crimson Tide turned the game into a laugher in the second half. On the
first drive of the third quarter, Darius Hanks caught a 36-yard pass to put
the ball at the eight. Richardson finished the six-play march with another
rushing touchdown.
Following an Ole Miss punt, Richardson broke off a career-long 76-yard TD run.
Richardson fought through multiple arm tackles on the left side before
changing direction. The junior running back made a great shake-and-bake move
at the 10-yard line before heading into the end zone for a 31-7 lead.
Things got worse for the Rebels after Mackey fumbled the football. Fowler
recorded an eight-yard TD run to make it a 38-7 game with under seven minutes
to play in the third.
Brandon Gibson added a 10-yard TD catch late in the third frame to give the
Crimson Tide a 45-7 margin.
Fowler had a career-long 69-yard TD run in the fourth quarter to account for
the final margin.
Game Notes
Alabama owns a commanding 45-9-2 series lead over Ole Miss, which includes a
23-10 victory last season...Alabama has been very successful in the second
month of the season under head coach Nick Saban. Now in his fifth season at
Alabama, the Crimson Tide sports a 16-1 record in October...Alabama has won
its last eight games by 16 or more points dating back to last season's Capital
One Bowl victory over Michigan State. That eight-game streak is tied for the
longest such mark in the modern era of Crimson Tide football (since
1950)...Richardson became the first Tide player since Shaun Alexander (LSU,
November 9, 1996) to rush for four touchdowns in a game.

Best anime I've watched in a long time.I'll be honest, i don't watch anime as much as i use to. Not because i'm growing out of it or anything, but because.... nothing really interests me. I tend to read manga more.
BUT ..... i watched this and fell in love. There's something about "FREE!" that really does make you feel free ^_^
0 out of 11 people found this review helpful:Free has its momentsOk, Free has its moments but ultimately is just a gimmick use to reciprocate the notion that there are not enough female fanservice anime outside yaoi(which is completely erroneous!). I mean Hakuoki is chockfull of female fanservice and it isn't yaoi, same goes for Fruits Basket, Ouran, Neo Angelique Abyss, Vampire Knight, Prince of Tennis, Kuroko no Basket(come on! do you honestly think that ...Read more

14 out of 15 people found this review helpful:Free! - Iwatobi Swim Club ReviewOk, first, a straight, young guy talking here. I've watched this anime in about two days, about 6 episodes per day. That's how captivating this anime was for me. It's probably the highest number of episodes of an anime I've ever watched in such a short time, but anyways, let's get to the actual review:Read more

1 out of 1 people found this review helpful:my favourite show...I watched Free! around January 2013, and I was shocked when I finished Episode 12. I couldn't believe that a show like this existed, and that I had no idea that there were characters out there who I could relate to so much!
Free! is amazing.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful:Five Stars! Amazing!!!!!!Amazing story, loved it, no shame in loving the show and being a guy.
Awesome artwork, beautiful water animation, great story, I'm sorry I judged before watching. I'd recommend this series to my friends, but idk if they'd go for it, but I'll definitely try
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful:Swimming and Muscles and Torment. Oh my!If you think Free! is just a show full of hot shirtless anime guys and fan service, you're only half right! Buckle you're motherf*ckin seat belts, because this show will take you on an agonizing emotional roller coaster. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll ogle and weep. Not only is this show pleasing to the eye, in more ways than one, but it also has an amazingly captivating story with a colorful ...Read more
This needs to be on your list to watch!Watching this show was one of the best decisions I made probably all year! I was worried I wouldn't like it because of all the hype but I was wrong. This show isn't just about half naked men. I love watching them learn and grow into their characters. Free! is now one of my favorite shows EVER!

Oh yeah, no arguments here. WDW is the better resort. You just can't get around that at all. You can't spend 7 days at Disneyland Resort but you can at WDW. In fact, maybe you don't squeeze everything in there in 7 days. Obviously DL is an experience too, but they lack the space that WDW has. WDW has its own bus transportation. It is just so grand that it is impossible to beat from a mere vacation standpoint. The monorail ride from Epcot to WDW is so nice as well. I just feels like you are being transported to another place. And another thing is that no matter how high you are on a ride you can never see the outside world at any point. You just literally think you are in a park that has trees surrounding it.
So for that I give the nod to WDW. You can spend more time there for sure. I think the nostalgic factor wins out in Disneyland though. Just lots of history, Walt's apartment, the Main Street Cinema, Mr. Lincoln, etc. That's before you even enter under the castle. I just think Disneyland is the perfect theme park in so many ways. Just like when you are in WDW you never ever think you are in a theme park but rather a fantasy. I don't know how Disney does it. But the park itself is about as close to perfect as you can get.
In my honest opinion, I think when you are at either park you miss things from the other park. But you aren't down in the dumps about it because there are things at each park that the other doesn't have, so it evens out. That's my feeling at least. You never feel anything but that Disney magic.

The coin is bright and completely devoid of any trace of toning. Most of the mint luster remains on the reverse and surrounds LIBERTY and the stars on the obverse. Well struck in the centers, except for the usual weakness on the eagle's head and upper reverse stars. This same area of weakness also shows a number of shallow roller marks that were not effaced in the striking process.
This scarcer die state is unrecorded in Herrman's Auction & Mail Bid Prices Realized above 40/40, which would seem to indicate that this piece is the finest O-104a currently known.

The Draped Bust Half Dollars of 1796-1797 by Jon Amato is the culmination of more than 10 years of research into the Draped Bust Small Eagle half dollar series, one of the most coveted type coins in American numismatics and one about which remarkably little has been written.
This work will be the premier reference for 1796-1797 half dollars for years to come. Institutions having an extensive numismatic library or coin cabinet will find it a valuable complement to their holdings, and catalogers charged with writing up specimens for auction can now have an indispensable source of background and pedigree information. Likewise, coin dealers seeking to purchase one or more '96 or '97 half dollars for a client or for inventory, and collectors who own, have owned, or desire to own one will want this important reference work for their libraries.

Or does the stealth in this game just genuinely fail sometimes? There has been multiple times where I was sitting still behind some cover and a enemy (both infected and non-infected) have just started rushing at me randomly. Also, is anybody else having massive framerate problems when there's a lot of enemies on screen?
Oh and sometimes I'll grab an infected while trying to stealth and Joel with curb stomp it instead of choking it out. They seem to be on the same button but what triggers doing one over the other?

Originally written on RealGM | Last updated 8/12/13
Jerry Stackhouse challenged LeBron James' belief that the NBA players union is "going backwards," saying the opinion of the Miami Heat star is misinformed. "He's the best player in the game right now and we want the entire league to be involved," Stackhouse said. "But he needs to be informed in speaking on our union business." Stackhouse, a union executive committee member, said James' comments felt like a "kick in the stomach," adding the union is moving positively. "I don't think he's had any dialogue with anybody since the All-Star break, but it is what it is," Stackhouse said. "To make that statement about where we are as a union right now, he was misinformed. "I would've liked [James] to come to the meeting next week and hear it and then voice his opinion."

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. The culture of Colu has changed over the years. Exploration of Coluan culture has been prominent in Legion of Super-Heroes and L.E.G.I.O.N.On New Earth, Colu was known to its inhabitants as Yod. The most significant moment in the planet's history was when Vril Dox, the adopted son of Brainiac liberated the planet from the Computer Tyrants. Its populace hunger for knowledge and the merging of organics and cybernetics is common. Robots play an important part in security of the planet. Colu's intelligence has stagnated over a period of 1000 years caused by the actions of Brainiac, Vril Dox and Brainiac 5 (of Earth 247). This is due to a reliance on theoretical research rather than practical experimentation.On Earth- 247 the people connect in sleep through a network to communicate.On Earth Prime we discover that Colu has found a way to combat its over-population crisis. It has shrunk itself using the same technology Brainiac used to shrink Kandor and his other bottle cities. It is known to the universe as 'The Bottle Planet of Colu'. During this time Colu's population is drained of its intelligence. An act Brainiac 5 considers genocide.In Other MediaIn the Legion of Super-Heroes Animated Series Colu was a completely robotic species that shared knowledge once a year during the 'alignment'. They all connect as part of a hive mind which Brainiac 5 has taken himself out of. In the final story of the series 'Dark Victory', Brainiac 5 uses the technology of Brainiac 1 to turn the whole planet into binary data. He used its inhabitants to make his body bigger as they all connected into one superstructure.
