ProFootballTalk: Previewing Seahawks-Redskins
Fireworks injury could force Jason Pierre-Paul to miss start of season
Giants defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul suffered serious hand injuries while setting off fireworks over Fourth of July weekend, 10 weeks before the season opener. And it's looking like those injuries might take more than 10 weeks to heal.
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, there's concern that Pierre-Paul could miss the start of the regular season. At this point the team is still awaiting more medical information, but his availability for Week One against the Cowboys is in doubt.
If Pierre-Paul's injury keeps him off the field, the Giants can put him on the non-football injury list and decline to pay him for any games he misses. Pierre-Paul is currently not under contract, and the Giants have placed the $14.8 million franchise tag on him. If he plays the 2015 season under the franchise tag but misses some games because of the fireworks injury, each game he misses will cost him more than $870,000 in lost salary.
Pierre-Paul led the Giants with 12.5 sacks last season and was expected to be their top pass rusher this year as well. He'll be hard to replace, but it's looking likely that the Giants will have to replace him, at least at the start of the season.
Michael Irvin Jr. heading to The U
Michael Irvin is one of the greatest players in the history of the University of Miami football program before going on to a Hall of Fame career with the Cowboys.
His son is going to try to follow in his father's early footsteps. Michael Irvin Jr. announced on Monday that he will attend his father's alma mater after finishing high school next year.
"It's what I've always wanted to do," Irvin Jr. said, via 247Sports.com. "I like the coaches. They told me I would play all over for them. In the backfield, at tight end and at receiver. [My father] was proud of me when I told him of my decision and he thinks it will work out for me just like it did for him going there."
Irvin Sr. is the Hurricanes' all-time leader in touchdown catches and finished his career as their all-time leader in catches and receiving yards, although Reggie Wayne and Santana Moss later topped Irvin's numbers in those categories.
Irvin Jr. is ranked as the No. 80 wideout in his class by Rivals.com and the No. 27 tight end prospect by 247Sports.
Russell Wilson says God spoke to him right after Super Bowl interception
That new Russell Wilson interview, nearly a full hour in all, contains plenty of interesting things. Along with multiple examples of Wilson hearing the voice of God, directly and audibly.
The one that will get the most media attention undoubtedly comes from Wilson's claim that God told Wilson not to have premarital relations with his new girlfriend, Ciara.
"The play happens, and they pick the ball off. And I take three steps," Wilson said. "And on the third step God says to me, 'I'm using you. . . . I want to see how you respond. But most importantly I want them to see how you respond."
Plenty of athletes and non-athletes over the years have claimed to have a direct pipeline to God. For those of us who believe in God but haven't heard Him speak in an audible voice but have felt His nudge at a more vague and visceral level, a claim that He uses actual words with others can be both confusing and a bit off-putting. For those who believe that God doesn't care about the outcome of sporting events, a claim that He is preparing an athlete for similar situations in the future can be both confusing and off-putting.
Regardless, Wilson seems to be saying that, above the din and the chaos of the moment, he heard God say, "I want to see how you respond. But most importantly I want them to see how you respond."
I'm not sure I want to see how some of you will respond in the comments.
Rob Konrad rejects chance to make movie out of odyssey at sea
Former Dolphins fullback Rob Konrad's story seemed like it was something out of a movie, which is why a lot of people thought it would be one.
But Konrad told Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald he had turned down a movie offer and several book deals, refusing to cash in on the tale of his 27-mile swim to safety after he fell off his boat six months ago.
"There were some big name folks involved," Konrad said. "But I made the decision I wasn't going to go that route. It's nothing I want to capitalize on. I don't have the time and desire. I'm running three [financial] companies in Florida and one in Chicago."
Konrad said he's writing a long "memo" to detail the incident, since he wants his children and grandchildren to read about it. But he said his plan right now is to not turn it into a book.
And even though being adrift at sea for 16 hours would be enough to make most people move to Oklahoma, Konrad said last week he was taking his boat to Cape Cod for the Fourth of July weekend.
"I've been on a boat a bunch since then," he said. "My wife has made me upgrade the technology and promise to always bring someone with me."
And if he's in the Atlantic right now, hopefully he takes the shark repellent as well.
Russell Wilson's preference between football and baseball? "Both"
Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson continues to do a lot of talking, and he's talking more and more about baseball.
Following last week's admission to Jimmy Kimmel that Wilson would consider playing football and baseball at the same time if his baseball rights were traded to the Seattle Mariners, Wilson spent the better part of an hour at The Rock Church in the San Diego area on Sunday, and he once again talked about playing baseball.
So which does he prefer? "Both," Wilson said.
Will he ever play both?
"I have no idea," Wilson said. "I believe if anybody could do it, I could. And I believe God's put me — gave me the ability to do it. I've done it my whole life."
Wilson also pointed out that he turned down the opportunity to make a million dollars when first drafted to play baseball, opting to play football and baseball at the same time in college. Given that things worked out fairly well with that million-dollar gamble, perhaps Wilson will be even more inclined to make a $1.5 million gamble this year, turning down whatever the Seahawks offer him before the season, realizing that if he plays for $1.5 million this year, he'll make a lot more on the back end.
And for those of you who ask why we keep writing about Wilson's situation, here's the answer: Unlike the vast majority of quarterbacks in similar situations, Wilson keeps talking about it.
This time around, the discussion about baseball came fairly early in the interview. So there may be more to come from this one.
Graphic De'Andre Johnson punch video likely means no NFL for him
As noted earlier today regarding the lingering lack of interest in running back Ray Rice, we all know what an assault looks like. But when we can see it, that changes everything.
For Florida State quarterback De'Andre Johnson, who in theory could have become the next NFL quarterback groomed for success by coach Jimbo Fisher (joining the likes of first-rounders JaMarcus Russell, Christian Ponder, EJ Manuel, and Jameis Winston), Johnson's chances of ever making it to the NFL have decreased dramatically now that visual evidence has surfaced of the violent blow he delivered to the head of a woman at a bar in Tallahassee last month.
The Tallahassee Democrat has obtained surveillance video showing Johnson punching the female (fast forward to roughly 1:50 to see the full exchange), who apparently was trying to buy a drink and past whom Johnson was trying to push.
Local authorities had come under fire for releasing the victim's name but redacting Johnson's name from the police report that was made available to the public.
"[W]e had to release the victim's name because she did not fall into an exemption, and we're not allowed to just take their names out," Tallahassee Police Department spokesman David Northway told the Democrat on Friday. "And we had to — we had — to redact the suspect's name in the case because it's an ongoing investigation."
Regardless of what Florida State does with Johnson, whatever he accomplishes on a football field at FSU or elsewhere, or however the prosecution is resolved, the NFL likely will have to shun Johnson, simply because anyone can see what we already knew he did.
Bengals DC Paul Guenther impressed by Steelers offense
The AFC North has generally been a strong defensive division over the years, but 2015 saw things go the other way.
None of the four teams ranked higher than 18th in total defense and the Steelers won the division thanks to their potent offense putting up enough points to overcome a lagging defense. Bengals defensive coordinator Paul Guenther will be tasked with trying to make sure that doesn't happen again this season and it's a task that he believes will be difficult.
One of the lead reasons why is quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who Guenther thinks became even more effective last season. Roethlisberger was sacked less frequently in 2014 than in any other year of his career, leaving him able to take full advantage of the weapons at his disposal.
"I've got a lot of respect for him," Guenther said, via ESPN.com. "He's taken a lot of shots and keeps getting up … He was getting hit a lot in the past while trying to throw some stuff downfield. The ball's coming out a little faster, particularly on third downs. That's probably part of it. He's not running as much and he has enough pocket presence where he keeps a play alive. You're talking about tight ends and wide receivers and running backs and an improved offensive line, that's a pretty good combination. They've gotten better up front and run the ball effectively, which helps them. The ability for them to run the ball, mix it up and keep teams honest probably got him more looks."
The Steelers beat the Bengals twice last season, including a Week 17 win that clinched the division for Pittsburgh and left the Bengals as a Wild Card visitor to Indianapolis. The Steelers gained 889 yards in those games, 667 of them through the air, and Guenther will need to come up with a better answer this time around to keep Cincinnati ahead of their rivals.
Three Colts linemen pose naked to show they're not fat slobs
Colts offensive lineman Todd Herremans is listed at 321 pounds. Anthony Castonzo is listed at 311. And Jack Mewhort is listed at 308. But unlike most 300-pounders, they have athletic bodies that they're happy to show off.
The three linemen appear together, naked, in the ESPN Magazine Body Issue, saying they jumped at the chance because they want the world to see that offensive linemen are athletes, not just fat guys.
"I think the view of offensive linemen from the public is that we are all just fat slobs," Herremans said. "Which is what it used to be, kind of. But now the game has evolved into more fit, athletic offensive linemen. So I would say that Anthony is probably the leanest out of all of us, and I'm probably the chubbiest. Jack is somewhere in the middle."
Mewhort says his body moves much more fluidly than you'd expect for a guy his size.
"I'm pretty good at yoga, actually," he said. "I've been getting into it recently. Anthony got me into it. I did a back bend the other day. I had some assistance from the instructor, but I still thought it was pretty cool."
It's pretty cool that these three big guys are willing to show off their physiques. They may not have washboard abs, but they have bodies to be proud of.
Teddy Bridgewater: We have high expectations, but a long way to go
Vikings offensive coordinator Norv Turner was among the people impressed by the way that quarterback Teddy Bridgewater wound down his rookie season in Minnesota.
Turner said Bridgewater was "much more decisive" in his final six starts last season and complimented the rookie for making gains while playing behind a shifting offensive line and without running back Adrian Peterson. Peterson's return from suspension, guard Brandon Fusco's return from injury, the presence of a healthy Kyle Rudolph at tight end and the arrival of rookie T.J. Clemmings join the acquisition of wide receiver Mike Wallace as reasons for optimism that Bridgewater will continue on an upward trajectory this season.
Bridgewater said in early June that he was excited about the team's offseason, but cautioned that it was too soon to talk about them as a contender. The final practices of the offseason didn't do anything to make him change his mind about avoiding overly rosy projections well before the season gets underway.
"I have high expectations for myself, and this team has high expectations also," Bridgewater said, via USA Today. "Right now, we're not as good as what we think. We know that the ceiling is very high and the expectation level is very high — not only for the players, but from a coaching staff also. We know what's being asked of us, but we have a long way to go."
It's not the kind of pom-pom waving we often see when the regular season is still somewhere over the horizon, but that's not a bad thing for a Vikings team that has posted losing records four of the last five years. The Vikings have to prove they're good before they can talk about being good, even though the need to toot their own horns won't be too great if their on-field work lives up to expectations.
Albert Haynesworth: Washington cost him his "passion for football"
Albert Haynesworth was happy to take the money. But in hindsight, he wouldn't have taken it from Dan Snyder.
The former defensive tackle, who was known as differently motivated during his playing career, wrote a first-person letter to his younger self for The Players Tribune in which he admits regrets over taking the $100 million contract Washington offered in 2009, saying: "You will lose your passion for football in Washington, and it will be impossible to get back."
"If nothing else, listen to me on this, Albert: Do not leave the Tennessee Titans," he wrote (such that players write for themselves there). "Your defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz is a mastermind. No matter how much I tell you this, you'll probably never realize it until your career is over, but it's true. You're like a system quarterback. You thrive in a very specific scheme."
Haynesworth also said the Buccaneers offered him a $135 million deal, but called the contract a "huge burden," saying: "Take less and stay in Tennessee where you belong."
Haynesworth suggests that he was dismayed when then-coach Mike Shanahan asked him to clog up the middle of the field rather than rush the passer as he had done with the Titans.
"You're going to look at this famous NFL head coach in total disbelief and say, "You want to pay me $100 million to grab the center?" the letter read. "And he's going to say, with a straight face, "Albert, if you have more than one sack this season, I'm going to be pissed."
"The last thing you'll say before walking out of the office is, "Can't you just pay someone $300,000 a year to do that?"
The piece also mentions the fact that much of that money was gone, blaming an unscrupulous financial advisor. But it also portrays a player who now realizes the grass isn't always greener, years after he took all the green.
Giants yank long-term offer Pierre-Paul wasn't inclined to accept
With Giants defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul still hospitalized two days after a fireworks accident, the Giants have commenced the process of protecting the franchise from its current franchise player.
Via Ian Rapoport of NFL Media, the Giants have removed the pending offer on a long-term deal for Pierre-Paul.
And so the $60 million deal is gone; whether a five-year or four-year package, Pierre-Paul wasn't going to accept it, not with $14.8 million for 2015 and $17.76 million for 2016 as a starting point. That's $32.56 million over two years on the franchise tag, and quarterback money or $25.5 million for 2017. Which equates to nearly $60 million in only three years.
The question now becomes whether the Giants will make another run at signing Pierre-Paul to a contract that takes the uncertainty regarding his health into account, or whether he'll sign the franchise tender and play for $14.8 million this year and, if they tag him again, 20 percent more than that in 2016.
The possibility that the Giants could place Pierre-Paul on NFI and not pay him a single penny for the 2015 season could prompt Pierre-Paul to stay away until he gets a clean bill of health, missing regular-season games not as a leverage play against the Giants but to ensure that, when team doctors examine his fingers, they'll give him a thumb's up.
Trump compares Patriots to China, in a good way
Last month's campaign announcement from presidential hopeful Donald Trump made plenty of waves for his remarks about Mexico. He also said something about China. And the New England Patriots.
Via Boston.com, Trump favorably compared the Patriots to China.
"People say, 'Oh, you don't like China.' No, I love them," Trump said, via Steve Silva of Boston.com. "But their leaders are much smarter than our leaders, and we can't sustain ourself with that. There's too much — it's like — it's like, take the New England Patriots and Tom Brady and have them play your high school football team. That's the difference between China's leaders and our leaders."
It's an odd comparison for Trump to make, and the fact that it went largely unnoticed for so long underscores the controversial nature of his remarks about Mexico.
It remains to be seen whether Trump is a truly serious candidate, and if so whether he has a chance to win. If he wins, no one should be surprised if he runs the U.S. like China. Or the Patriots. Or both.
Pierre-Paul still in hospital
Whatever the extent of Giants defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul's injuries following a Saturday fireworks mishap, they're bad enough to keep him in the hospital.
Via Jordan Ranaan of NJ.com, Pierre-Paul remains hospitalized in Miami, two days after burning his hands on the Fourth of July.
Mixed reports have emerged since news of the mishap first broke, which isn't surprising. Apart from medical privacy, Pierre-Paul has $14.8 million riding on his ability to play this year.
Even if the Giants don't withdraw the franchise tender (and they likely won't), the Giants can deem Pierre-Paul unfit to play due to the burns, placing him on the non-football injury list and opting not to pay him a penny for the 2015 season.
While that would seem like a harsh outcome, the extent to which the Giants and anyone else will have sympathy for Pierre-Paul depends on the details of the accident. If he failed to follow the "light fuse and get away" mandate that applies to anything more potent than sparklers, the Giants may be more inclined to opt for NFI and no salary.
None of that will matter if Pierre-Paul is fully healed sooner than later. For now, though, the fact that he's still in a hospital underscores the reality that this was a major incident.
UConn tight end Sean McQuillan hoping to convince an NFL team
Connecticut tight end Sean McQuillan has already earned his degree, and might have been a team captain if he had returned for his final year of eligibility.
But an arrest this spring following a fight with his roommate cost him his entrance into school, leaving him no choice but this week's supplemental draft, which he's confident he'll be chosen in.
"Well, first of all, I'm going to make it, and second of all, there isn't a backup plan," McQuillan said, via Desmond Conner of the Hartford Courant. "I'm confident I'm going to be able to do this thing. I'm prepared for this. I'm going to show them I'm athletic, I'm versatile, I can do a bunch of different things. I'm confident and I'm ready for this next step, so I haven't thought about anything else."
Of course, he has other things on his plate, namely a July 17 appearance in court for his second degree assault and disorderly conduct. But he's hoping that his workout Wednesday will convince some team to take a chance on him.
"I want people to know I'm strong and I'm going to get through this," McQuillan said. "Perseverance is the word. Bad things are going to happen sometimes. When you get knocked down it's about how you respond and I'm going to respond, recreate my brand, get that respect back from everybody which is very important to me because I love Connecticut and I love the people here.
"I want to be someone people for years and years are looking up to, not based on a couple things that happened in college. I want them to look at me and say he's a great person. He persevered through some tough times to get where he wanted to be. At the end of all this, it's how I want to be seen and I know I can get there. I'm not going to get outworked. If things don't go my way I'm just going to keep chugging along until I get it right."
McQuillan has some basketball background as well, though not much in the way of stats in football. He caught 16 passes for 158 yards and a touchdown last season, though he did score the only touchdown in UConn's spring game this year.
That might not be enough to make a team draft him, but without a backup plan, it's what he has to work with at the moment.

The long awaited CD by Rick Aeschliman, "The Road Home" is done and will be ready to ship in a few days. When you order Rick's wonderful CD, he will donate a generous portion of profit to our "Angel Fund".
The Angel fund was set up by Cathy Toft and Rick 10 years ago to help rescue collies that are elderly and others also in need of special medical care. Because there are reasonable limits on what we can ask regarding adoption fees for older and medically challenged collies, the adoption fee usually does not cover their medical expenses. To help cover expenses of collies regardless of age and medical condition, we have set up a special called "The Angel Fund" and is named for Angel, one of our elderly rescue collies who crossed over the rainbow bridge in 2007.
Rick dedicated this Album to the memory of Cathy Toft, one of the founders of NorCal Collie Rescue, who died in December of 2011. When the Angel Fund was set up Rick donated profits from prints of a painting he did called "The Road Home". It was a limited edition of 250 prints. Rick and Cathy held back 50 prints to be offered at a later date. Rick has decided to release the remaining 50 prints and give one free CD with every print sold.

This is a wonderful opportunity to own a CD or fine art print (free CD with print purchase) by Rick and help our elderly collies!

The gentleman who runs this office is very helpful and knowledgable. It is a boon for those of us who do not want to complete forms on line and who have had bad experiences of sending returns thy mail which were "lost" in the system. Although in my case I had taken the precaution of requiring a signature from the tax office in Cardiff. We need more localism in our dealings with officialdom and I am very annoyed and saddened that the interface with the taxpayer is getting less and less human.
Sadly, I know these comments will be ignored.

Durham Bulls Athletic Park
The Durham Bulls Athletic Park, located right in the heart of downtown Durham in the American Tobacco District, is the home of the Durham Bulls. The Bulls are perhaps the most famous minor league baseball team, having been featured in the film Bull Durham. The ballpark is easy to get to right in downtown and there are several parking lots and garages adjacent to the park for easy access. The park has a number of concession stands for food and drink options that are reasonably priced and tickets to a game are reasonable as well. The park is very family friendly and a day out at the ballpark is a great way to spend the afternoon or evening with the family without spending a fortune. Kids will love the team's mascot, Wool E. Bull. I'm not a baseball fan myself, but I've come here a couple times with work as part of team-building and its always a good time.

Wallace Wade Stadium
If you want to see a Duke basketball game – and I know you really, really do – then you have to promise to go to some Blue Devils football games. That's part of the school's football ticket sales plan. Yeah, it's a bummer, right? Duke hasn't made a bowl game or had a winning season since 1994.What makes it even worse is that when I was a student there, we continuously ranked among the 25 winningest programs over the preceding 25 year period. The last time the Devils truly were successful on the gridiron came in the 1980s under coach Steve Spurrier, now at the University of South Carolina. That was a long time ago. To outsiders, our Wallace Wade Stadium is just as bad then as it is now. It holds just 33,941 people, and rarely even fills those seats. It still has a track around the field which more "sophisticated" fans and writers make fun of but I ran around that track many, MANY times and officiated at US vs. USSR track meets as well as an NCAA Championship meet held on that track and in that stadium, so I am one of thousands who would hate to see that stadium and its (actually) very modern track disappear. The worst part about Wallace Wade Stadium is that for many years now, when the stadium is filled to the brim, it's mostly with opposing fans.
I have never been president of any Optimist Club, but being the eternal optimist when it comes to Duke athletics, I am one of many who is very optimistic about the football program under new football coach David Cutcliffe. In the three years that he has been at Duke, the football team has won more games than during any other three year period since the Spurrier era and, though we realize how tough it is to revive a virtually dead program, we remain optimistic.
One final interesting tidbit. Wallace Wade Stadium, known at the time as Duke Stadium, is the only stadium, other than Rose Bowl Stadium Stadium in Pasadena, California, to host the annual Rose Bowl football game.
Duke Sports Hall of Fame
Although I very dearly love Duke University and love to sing her praises to anyone who will listen to, or read, it, I am becoming very discouraged by working on tips or pages up to an hour only to have my ISPs (and I have used several) or the VT server delete or refuse my input. If anyone else has that problem, please let me know. I worked over an hour on this one.
In the spring of 1975, not too long after my graduation from Duke, I was privileged to attend the initial induction dinner for the Duke Sports Hall of Fame. After that ceremony, the Hall of Fame consisted of six photographs and a painted Hall of Fame Banner. With subsequent inductions and expansion, the Hall now has about 120 members and is housed in a 10,000 sq ft facility within the Schwartz-Butters Complex which is immediately adjacent to the Cameron Indoor Stadium. This relatively new facility contains a theater, audio and video clips, and other exhibits showcasing the people and events who have brought athletic fame to the University in addition to photos of each of the inductees.
Open Monday-Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM.

City of Champions?
New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Durham. Where can we go to see top quality athletic events, Alex? Durham is not world renowned for its athletic teams but perhaps it should be. Duke and North Carolina Central Universities have won a total of six national collegiate basketball and football championships in the past 20 years, four in basketball and two in football. Of the Duke men's and women's lacrosse teams and women's field hockey team, at least one of them has played in the Final Four each of the past five seasons. The women's golf team and men's soccer teams have also won national championships and the women are perennial conference champions. North Carolina Central has a legendary track and field program and Dr. Leroy Walker, their track coach for about 40 years, was one of the most respected in the world.

Durham Bulls
Home of the Durham Bulls baseball park and team. A fun experience growing up, I have fond memories of the old and new parks. I'm not even really a baseball or sports fan per se, but still there's nothing like the smell of grass in the summer time, someone in the crowd singin' "heeeeeey, batta batta batta swiiiiiiing", and of course the large bull whose eyes flash red and who spurts smoke out of his nose whenever the home team scores a home run.

After a long break due to a breakdown of the original team, we are merging the Purgation of Kaurava and Firestorm over Kaurava modifications. This modification is the result of that merge and will STILL be Firestorm over Kaurava.
Melooo/yooo has been very generous in allowing the two modifications to merge and baz4431 has been heading the recent team reorganisation!
Expect more news as we progress; a Soulstorm version of the modification isn't that long away!
9 comments by Gorb on Feb 1st, 2013
Today's news feature is bringing people up to speed on the Forces of Chaos in DoW40k: Firestorm over Kaurava!
The artwork, and a lot of the code behind it, comes directly from Melooo's efforts while involved with FoK and his own mod; Purgation of Kaurava. Squads gain visual upgrades as you unlock specific researches! What you see is here an Iron Warriors-themed force with not a lot of research unlocked!
Later on in the game, I chose the a siege-based Trait (Iron Warriors in all but name) over the Zealous Trait and my Chaos Lord and Chaos Marines changed to something more . . . Iron :) Conversely, the Zealous upgrade takes your Undivided force more in the direction of the Word Bearers . . . in all but name.
This allows you to create your own custom Chapters and warbands, but still get the great gameplay of the Traitor Legions of Chaos!
The current internal build is quite polished; Mirage Knight is doing excellent work behind the scenes. Our aim is to get it as refined as we can through internal testing, as the game mechanics aren't solid yet.
Check out our Images gallery for some previews! More screenshots to come when I get time!

For those of you having trouble installing the manual version/prefer .exes
Khorn Berserkers are not read but are coloured like chosen faction colour scheme. Black for B. legion for example. I suppose it wasnt planned like that.
Becouse berzerkers are actually part of some legions and not only Wolrd Eaters warbands.For instance, u have large khorne berzerkers in Black Legion (Hounds of Abbadon) and they have black armour.
Is their any changelog available BEFORE downloading the mod ?
Hmm, I suppose we should write one.
Space Marines:
-Greatly improved AI.
-Greatly improved AI.
-Added Lord of Change and Keeper of Secrets greater daemons.
-Each Mark now has unique Chaos Terminators.
-Greatly improved AI.
-Added war walkers.
-Fixed brightlances reload.
-Fixed Vyper costs.
-Warlocks no longer indepent commanders.
-Guardians cheaper, worse acuraccy, single weapon platform, can get a warlock leader.
-Proper textures for Swooping Hawks.
-Improved AI, shouldn't crash now.
-The third, new doctrine now unlocks special veteran squads, but still a work in progress.
-Improved AI.
-Added Ghost Ark.
-Added Annihilation Barge.
-Added Death Marks.
-Improved AI.
-Sisters of Battle Acts of Faith buffed.
-Added some vehicle upgrades.
Dark Eldar:
-Improved AI.
-Added wracks.
And a lot of minor bug fixes and tweaks for everybody. Yeah Orks and Tau didn't get much new this update. We plan to give them more love in the future, but it had been a lot of time since the last public release.
Damn, can't edit after 5 minutes. Well, I'll try to keep a more updated list of changes in the mod description itself.
what i need to download to play this awesome mode ? i'm confuse xD
Just this:

Ask a hardcore gamer what drives their habit, and they might say games give them a fix of fantasy, or a mind-expanding, pulse pumping, virtual escape. But Obi Hugo's new game company is banking on the notion that people crave something else: a dose of African daily life.
You may know someone addicted to Farmville, a game that has opened up the "casual gaming" genre, giving players a taste of the mundane reality that Hugo envisions for his games. But Farmville comes from a Silicon Valley company, and last spring, Hugo, a Nigerian in the Diaspora, looked at the digital content in Africa and realized that everything came from Silicon Valley or Japan. None of his fellow Nigerians were starting software firms. Also, most video games about the African experience dealt with the continent's problems: war, poverty, and AIDS — games that play a role, but don't necessarily delve into the heart of what it is to be an African.
So Hugo and some of his friends made it their mission to change this. They "looked at the local culture, the local attitudes and trends, and tried to make games out of them." And so began Maliyo, a Nigerian game company with an aim to make games for Africans, by Africans —games that locals can relate to and understand. They want to make games that the 6 million Nigerian refugees, the most educated immigrants in the world, can play to remind themselves of their abandoned homes and lifestyles. They want to inspire these refugees to contribute to entrepreneurship and help reflect their own experiences in the digital world. They want to make games that could inform a global audience about the universality of the human experience. "It was the missing piece," Oluseye Soyode-Johnson, Hugo's partner said.
In one of their games called "Okada Ride," the player takes on the persona of Ali, an impoverished and "cheeky" motorbike rider that must navigate heavy traffic, potholes and police on the Lagos streets. Another game consists of swatting mosquitoes, not to make some grand statement about the prevalence of malaria, but simply to create common ground — most Africans, despite their differences, will attest to the pests' annoying and ubiquitous presence. A Nigerian migrant in one of the big cities might play "My Village" or "The Tribes" to recall memories of rural life.
When the company does take on serious problems, it does so with a refreshingly light-hearted approach. For instance, the fact that Nigeria has a deep-rooted kidnapping culture is reflected in "Kidnapped," in which the gamer must rescue a friendly neighborhood couple from abductors.
Even in their first few months as a start-up, Maliyo is succeeding. They have created six games so far, and they are working hard to satisfy demands and release others. Since Maliyo's games are in the "casual" genre, the company hopes to be a good match for Facebook, where similar games, like Farmville, have thrived. Yet Maliyo gamers will find themselves doing more than tilling fake fields — they will be connecting with the "African narrative," and, in doing so, pave the way for a future Africa of enterprise and innovation, and for a global community with a deeper understanding of the region.

I think this is so cool! Yay for them, and I think some of these could be very fun to play.
Interesting, thanks.
Great idea I hope it's a roaring success.
thanks for posting
Very interesting, thanks.
The motorcycle ride through pothole city sounds like fun! I've always liked racing games.
Thank you!
Most of Nigeria's people are dirt poor which is why they sabotage the pipelines to get fuel to cook with or for other reasons. It is why the people have took over the refinery. Nigerians are not stupid they're just poor. If the Oil companies had trained and employed the locals there would be a viable economy with an established infrastructure of schools; hospitals and businesses. The corporatists would rather employ Friedman's austerity economics by creating conflict between the various religious and ethnic groups. There was relative peace in Nigeria until two years ago. Payback's a bitch ain't it?

There has been a number of gyms and employ facilities in your community that began to offer exercise classes known as cardio kickboxing classes. These fitness classes have really taken off in your community and possess been helping lots of people be in the most effective shape of their lives. With the amount of people around the globe raving regarding the comes from cardio kickboxing classes, the majority are needs to wonder how these kickboxing workouts really can rival other more common forms of workouts.
First it is important to understand many of the basic great things about cardio kickboxing in order to see what sort of results this exercise will deliver in comparison to other workout forms. At its core, cardio kickboxing is a aerobic exercise and cardio workouts will almost always be at the center of those workouts. With regards to the class, the amount of aerobic fitness exercise out of these workouts can differ, but in case you take classes like the popular Tiger Schulmann Kickboxing Program, it is possible to burn around 800 calories by the hour long session. Lots of the exercises performed inside the average cardio kickboxing class require participants to get a tight and completely engaged core. This makes a massive hour long workout on your mid section that provides you with unparalleled core strength plus much more defined abdominal muscles that you'll quickly take notice of.
However along with burning calories and providing an incredible cardio workout, such a kickboxing workout also provides toning and strength training too. Many see that they could build muscle and definition within their arms, legs along with their core as well. Equipped with the essential insight around the physical benefits of cardio kickboxing, it might be clear to understand how this exercise comes close to other more traditional kinds of exercise.
For many individuals on earth, especially in the warmer months, jogging is amongst the most favored varieties of workouts. 1 hour of vigorous jogging will burn around 490 calories 1 hour. However, jogging won't assist with toning or body building in the manner that kickboxing can. Also, in areas such as Eatontown which may have notoriously cold winters many people who job must do such like a treadmill while inside, which often slows lots of people down.
Walking is much like jogging in the sense that in provides cardio benefits and not very much in the way of muscle building or strength training. Walking will burn around 240 calories each hour, meaning it will burn far fewer than half the calories in the hour a kickboxing class will.
Biking is a preferred kind of exercise for those wanting to do both indoors during the winter and out of doors in the warmer months. With biking you can expect to burn around 400 calories per hour, or about half up to you can with kickboxing. While biking might help tone and get ripped inside the legs this doesn't contain the abdominal muscle or arm muscle building benefits that cardio kickboxing does.

"Always Do Whatever's Next"
That quote is one of the more mysterious yet powerful anecdotes from the late great comedian (a.k.a. stand-up philosopher) George Carlin. I came across this quote a few days ago after I picked up a LIFE magazine book recapping the last decade in amazing full spread photos and captions. The book was a great reminder of all that we have been through and the changes that have resulted in the first 10 years of this millennium. At the end, the last few pages were dedicated to some of the legendary writers, politicians, actors, musicians, and other celebrities who have passed away in the last decade. Each photo had simply their name, occupation, dates, and a quote that captured their spirit and life's contribution to the rest of us. I scanned through and one quote in particular caught my eye. It was simple, yet deep, and obvious, while mysterious at the same time. "Always do whatever's next," seems easy enough. I wondered for a little while why this was chosen for George Carlin's quote? Surely throughout the decades of his stand-up career and television shows something more interesting (and raunchy) could have been chosen. Such as "fighting for peace is like screwing for virginity." And I am sure the seven words you can't say on television were neglected for obvious reasons. The simple, yet profound quote stuck in my mind throughout the weekend and rang true for a few things on the deck right now.
For me, the quote had a few different meanings and applications. It meant that one should simplify one's goals and path toward reaching them to avoid becoming scattered and frazzled. Set a goal, whether it is to get that promotion, stop smoking, ask out that girl you've been after, etc. Then work at it until you've accomplished it. If you can focus on it, it will help to motivate you to get it done. Then, move onto the next goal. If you try to pile on too many at once, chances are you won't accomplish any of them and the stress of failure and overexertion will drag you down. Of course, it being the beginning of the new year, New Year's resolutions came to mind in relation to the quote. But making a New Year's resolution usually means overdoing whatever you're trying to cut out in the days leading up to New Year's Day, making your resolution that much more difficult to tackle.
Focusing on one item before moving onto the next can apply to the truck world as well. Chances are all of us have a few projects either lying around being worked on, or in our heads waiting to be fulfilled. For example, while it would be cool to completely tear down your truck for a complete rebuild, and with some this may be the only option, you can make a goal of something as simple as getting the truck running properly so it can be driven and enjoyed for a while first before moving on to the next step. Finishing one project before moving on to the next gives you a chance to focus your energy and funds until you have gotten the truck to a stage you are satisfied with. Trying to tackle too many projects at once will add to your stress level, lack of floor space and the chances of one or all of them going dormant is much higher. (Ahem, Mike A!) Sure, a lot of us have truck ADD and wrench on our trucks until something else that's cool or cheap comes along and catches our eye, but the satisfaction of completing something and moving on to the next project while enjoying your current truck is always better. Having finished my red truck for the most part (some tinkering will always occur), I have been working on Project Greystone, my daily-driven crew cab Silverado that has been seen in a few tech articles recently. A large portion of the customizing has already been completed so far. (At least until it is paid off and then the rockers will most likely see the ground!) That being said, I am about to dive into a full fresh project build that you will soon be reading about thanks to the guys over at Status in Rockwall, Texas. Of course, there is also still a little old body-dropped Ranger sitting at my parents' house, but that got bumped lower on the list of whatever's next!
Who knew you'd get some life advice from a truck magazine? Now I just have to make sure that I stick to it myself!

This is a previously unreleased video from the ANN archives.
Some of us can remember back to 1957 when the TV series, Whirlybirds, introduced us to the Bell model 47 helicopter. And then starting in 1972, and running for 11 years, every episode of the TV series M*A*S*H began with two Bell 47's approaching the landing pad with wounded soldiers strapped to the landing skids. If these visions bring back fond memories, then you don't want to miss learning about the Lawrence D. Bell Aircraft Museum in Mentone Indiana.
ANN's Paul Plack visited the Lawrence D. Bell Aircraft Museum and came away with more than the usual stories about Bell airplanes and helicopters. President of the museum, Tim Whetstone, had something
ANN's Paul Plack spent some time talking with Ernie Boyette, President of Rotor Flight Dynamics Incorporated. Boyette is a recognized expert in the subject of gyrocopters and got his start in the early Benson machines. He started his business by improving on the Benson and now has his own unique designs. His designs are easy to spot because of their high stance which allows for a true centerline thrust configuration.
Here's a chance to be introduced to unique autogyro when ANN's Paul Plack interviews Tim
When you run across a Benson gyrocopter named Go Go Gadget, you just have to check it out, and that's where ANN's Paul Plack headed while at the 2010 Popular Rotorcraft Association meeting. Plack met up with Rick Wittridge who had with him a Benson B8 gyrocopter that was a cut above what you would expect to find.

DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Gefitinib is a drug that is used to treat several types of lung cancer. It works by preventing lung cancer cells from growing and multiplying. Many cells, including cancer cells, have receptors on their surfaces for epidermal growth factor (EGF), a protein that is normally produced by the body and that promotes the growth and multiplication of cells. When EGF attaches to epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFRs), it causes an enzyme called tyrosine kinase to become active within the cells. Tyrosine kinase triggers chemical processes that cause the cells, including cancer cells, to grow, multiply, and spread. Gefitinib attaches to EGFRs and thereby blocks the attachment of EGF and the activation of tyrosine kinase. This mechanism for stopping cancer cells from growing and multiplying is very different from the mechanisms of chemotherapy and hormonal therapy. Gefitinib was approved by the FDA in May 2003.
PRESCRIPTION: Yes.

Jamestown Welcome Messages
Greetings from The College of William & Mary!
On behalf of the Jamestown/Botetourt staff, I would like to say welcome to our "home". My name is Rodney Franks, and I am the Area Director for Jamestown North/South and the Botetourt area. As a full-time professional, I am responsible for the day-to-day management of the area that includes 795 residents. I also supervise 29 student staff members that live in the halls so that they may assist you and create a safe learning environment.
We are very excited that you have chosen to join our community for the upcoming academic year! The staff will be working diligently throughout the summer to plan exciting programs and activities to enhance your experience of living with us. We would love to have you all take an active and interested role in this community so that together we may create an inclusive and empowering community. There are many ways to get involved in the residence halls, but one in particular is to join Hall Council. Hall Council is the governing body for the residence halls, which allows you, the student, to have a direct influence into what your experience will be on campus and in your William & Mary home. I encourage you to take an active role in YOUR community by becoming an Executive Board member, a Hall Representative, or even a general body member.
Should you have any questions between now and move-in day, we suggest that you look over our website. It is loaded with a lot of helpful and detailed information designed to be a great resource.

Researchers at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine and Moores Cancer Center have identified a new biomarker and therapeutic target for pancreatic cancer, an often-fatal disease for which there is currently no reliable method for early detection or therapeutic intervention. The paper will be published May 15 in Cancer Research.
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, or PDAC, is the fourth-leading cause of cancer-related death. Newly diagnosed patients have a median survival of less than one year, and a 5-year survival rate of only 3 to 5 percent. Therefore, biomarkers that can identify early onset of PDAC and which could be viable drug targets are desperately needed.
'"We found that a kinase called PEAK1 is turned on very early in pancreatic cancer," said first author Jonathan Kelber, PhD, a postdoctoral researcher in the UCSD Department of Pathology and Moores Cancer Center. "This protein was clearly detected in biopsies of malignant tumors from human patients at the gene and the protein levels as well as in mouse models."
PEAK1 is a type of tyrosine kinase an enzyme, or type of protein, that speeds up chemical reactions and acts as an "on" or "off" switch in many cellular functions. The fact that PEAK1 expression is increased in human PDAC and that its catalytic activity is important for PDAC cell proliferation makes it an important candidate as a biomarker and therapeutic target for small molecule drug discovery.
In addition to showing that levels of PEAK1 are increased during PDAC progression, the scientists found that PEAK1 is necessary for the cancer to grow and metastasize.
"PEAK1 is a critical signaling hub, regulating cell migration and proliferation," said Kelber. "We found that if you knock it out in PDAC cells, they form significantly smaller tumors in preclinical mouse models and fail to metastasize efficiently."

Hi Tobias,
Thanks for all your hard work, this is an amazing plugin.
I am uploading a zip file containing 650 tables ordered alphanumerically, when unpacked the last three files of the 650 are assigned to tables 1,2&3 with the remaining 647 files being assigned 4 to 650. This happens with a new installation of the plugin. Is there a way to keep the uploaded order when assigning table id's?

If you are part of a general practice and your site is not yet compliant with the Health and Social Care Bill, listen up ...
On March 27th 2012 this bill became law, and it increases GPs' powers to commission services on behalf of their patients. GPs will control 85% of the NHS' £106bn annual budget through their involvement in clinical commissioning groups (CCGs).
That's great, but the CCGs now have an imperative to ensure their members, (including general practices), meet a bunch of new regulations that must be implemented as soon as possible. In particular, all practices must develop a website, allowing patients to view services, surgery times, obtain prescriptions, become aware of new procedures, make and cancel appointments, and so on.
We can help
If you are worried about this - don't be. We have years of experience dealing with medics, researchers and complicated information. We can wrap it up in a personal and professional design and give you the tools to keep it all up to date.

So, if you scrub your skin with soap in the shower, your body will not convert most of your skin's sun exposure to vitamin D. I'm not suggesting that you avoid showering after sun exposure rather that you primarily soap the areas that don't usually see the light of day and wash the newly tanned ones exclusively with water. Avoid excessive sun exposure since there are no health benefits of sunburn.
Some vitamin D deficiency symptoms include: bow legs or "knock knees," burning in mouth or throat, constipation, dental cavities or cracked teeth, insomnia, joint pains or bone pains, muscle cramps, nearsightedness (myopia-can't see distances), nervousness, osteomalacia, osteoporosis, frequent colds or flu, and poor bone development.
Vitamin D is also found in fish and fish oils, sweet potatoes, sunflower seeds, mushrooms, and many types of sprouts. People with low thyroid function (hypothyroidism) tend to have difficulty with vitamin D absorption and as a result, may have higher needs for this nutrient.
Most nutrition experts agree that the current RDA of 200 IU is insufficient and that the minimum needs to be raised to 1000 IU, while many health experts recommend supplementation of 2000 to 4000 IU daily. However, you should always consult a qualified health professional before supplementing with vitamin D since excessive amounts can build up in the body creating a potential risk for toxicity and is contraindicated for some health conditions.
