Snakes alive!
The market for snakes - as pets - is flooded. And as a result they can be bought for as little as ten pounds. And that's bad news. Because they're being bought as a novelty and then abandoned - in record numbers.
One sanctuary in Kent is receiving dozens of unwanted snakes - incuding pythons and boa constrictors - every week. John Ryall reports, speaking to Wayne May of the Artisan Rare Breeds rescue, and volunteer Jesse Potter.
"Obesity crisis" not just hitting us humans...
Video. It's an established fact that, as a nation, we are getting bigger. But it seems we are also sharing our unhealthy eating habits with our pets. Four and a half million cats and dogs are estimated to be overweight.
But now there is a campaign to try and reverse the situation. Martin Dowse went to meet one pet owner from Poole in Dorset who decided to take action after her dog ballooned in weight.
He spoke to Suzanne Fox about her dog Diesel and Vet Chris Sydenham.
Crocodile lover keeps pet Caesar in his bungalow
Video. Keeping dangerous characters under lock and key is second nature to Chris Weller. For years, Chris Weller worked as a prison officer. Six years ago he retired. But security remains uppermost in his mind.
Not least because he shares his bungalow with a crocodile. Caesar is a cold-blooded killer, who spends most of his time in a tank. But like many of us, if he is left hungry, he starts to get agitated. John Ryall reports.
Picking up strays
The number of stray dogs picked up by councils in the south east has reached 9,200 - that's an increase of 10% on last year. The latest figures, released by the Dogs Trust, equate to 25 dogs being picked up every day by Local Authorities in the South East.
So is the family pet the latest victim of the long recession? Nashreen Issa talks to Adam Levy from The Dogs Trust, Nicholas Barnes from Pets at Home and an Animal Welfare officer from Brighton and Hove Council.
Pegasus the dog home from Afghanistan
Video. A family have gone to extreme lengths to bring home a stray dog their son befriend while in Afghanistan. Private Lewis, who was killed whilst on patrol, had Pegasus the dog as his constant companion. His family have now taken great solace in giving Peg a new home.
Now an artist from Oxfordshire has painted the remarkable little dog's portrait, which is hoping to raise money for charity. Heather Edwards spoke to Tony Lewis, Private Lewis' father and Shirley Cherry who painted the portrait of Peg.

Animal rescue crisis in south-east
For a nation of animal lovers we're doing a pretty bad job. Animal centres across Kent are reporting ever greater numbers of cats, dogs and other pets being dumped, abandoned or mistreated.
The RSPCA says its centres at Canterbury and Leybourne are now at crisis point - so full, they simply can't deal with any more animals. David Johns reports, speaking to Christine Dooley and Adele Collier from the RSPCA in Kent.
To help re-home a cat or any of the other animals, please call the RSPCA on 0300 123 0751 or visit www.rspca.org.uk
Animal lover's extreme pets
We are, it's said, a nation of animal lovers. But some people in the South East have been known to take this to the extreme. One pet lover in Kent shares his house with some deadly-looking creatures! David Johns has been finding out more...

1) Allow steaks to warm up to near room temperature.
2) Preheat the grill.
4) Place the steaks on a baking tray and drizzle the steaks on each side with olive oil until nicely coated.
5) Liberally season the steak on each side with the steak rub seasoning. (if you don't have a seasoning like this, use salt, pepper, garlic, cayenne powder, onion powder).
6) Press the seasoning into the steaks with the tines of a fork.
7) Grill the steaks on a grill or cast iron grill top or pan until medium rare (135°F), flipping only once. The seasonings should form a nice crust on each side.
8) Plate up the steaks on a bed of homemade steak sauce, top with sweet potato pommes frites and serve immediately.

43 CFR 3830.12 - What are the characteristics of a locatable mineral?
prev | next
(a) Minerals are locatable if they meet the requirements in § 3830.11 and are:
(b) Under the Surface Resources Act, certain varieties of mineral materials are locatable if they are uncommon because they possess a distinct and special value. As provided in McClarty v. Secretary of the Interior,408 F.2d 907 (9th Cir. 1969), we determine whether mineral materials have a distinct and special value by:
(4) Determining whether, if the special value is for uses to which ordinary varieties of the mineral are put, the deposit has some distinct and special value for such use; and
(5) Determining whether the distinct and special value is reflected by the higher price that the material commands in the market place.
(c) Block pumice having one dimension of 2 or more inches is an uncommon variety of mineral material under the Surface Resources Act, and is subject to location under the mining laws.
(d) Limestone of chemical or metallurgical grade, or that is suitable for making cement, is subject to location under the mining laws.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 3/6/13
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell says the league will continue to do ''everything we can'' to make football safer. Goodell has talked a lot recently about player safety and he discussed it again Wednesday during a lecture and question-and-answer session at the department of exercise and sport science at the University of North Carolina. He's calling for ''a culture of safety for every sport'' and welcomes the national conversation about player safety and the growing issue of concussions. Goodell says the league ''can and must do more to make the game safer'' and pointed to the NFL's recently announced partnership with General Electric to develop ways to improve head protection. He says ''science can be a game-changer in making sports safer'' and wants to ''take the head out of the game.''

What's the next stumbling block the Republicans will put on the road to recovery?
They've been successful at moving the conversation away from job creation because they haven't a clue how to fix the anemic economy. They were responsible for wasting a month debating raising the debt ceiling and coming dangerously close to letting the nation default, which would've never happened had there been a Republican in the White House.
The next diversion for the GOP to avoid talking jobs appears to be the partial shutdown of the Federal Aviation Administration, which could hold up paychecks until October for some 77,000 workers.
It's not where are the jobs anymore, it's where are the government jobs tea party terrorists can attack.
No matter what the GOP has in mind to divert from the fact they don't know how to create jobs, the president and Democrats will be led by their nose-hairs to follow in line.
Speaking of President Obama, he turned 50 years old today.
B.O. is 5-0.
If he's celebrating the landmark birthday in Chicago tonight, expect Princess Photo-Op Palin and other Foxholes to use him as a human pinada for partying.
What if there is a birthday bash and you were the comic emcee of the event, and you can ditch the material screened by the White House and wing it? Here is some material you might not want to use:
"Mr. President, you're 50. But you don't look it. You look 41. You know, the same number as your job approval rating."
"You can't lie about your age, Mr. President. It says so right there on your birth certificate. And who in their right mind would ever question that?"
"The Dow took a major hit today. Cable news network headlines included:
MSNBC: "Global economy panic sends Wall Street in a tail-spin."
CNN: "Forthcoming jobs report throws market into turmoil."
Fox News: "Dow plummets on Obama's birthday!"
"Mr. President, Republicans were thinking of getting you a gift. It's only fair, you just gave them one."
"Thanks for getting bin Laden. Who knew that would be the easiest thing for you to get done in your presidency? It's a good thing you didn't consult Republicans before the mission —- they would've talked you out of it."
"So you're going to hit the road talking jobs. It's appropriate that you're traveling by bus —- because you just threw the middle-class under one."
"Even Hollywood is doing its part to keep America stupid, with movies like "Jackass 3-D," "Bad Teacher" and "Horrible Bosses" Take note, Mr. President, it's a sure sign the country is leaning toward a Palin presidency."
"Marilyn sang 'Happy Birthday, Mr. President" to JFK. The best we can offer you is Tyler Perry in a bad wig as Madea Monroe."

Opponents need aggressive strategies
The "Don't kick to Dante Hall?" theory sounds good, but is not the best approach to containing the phenomenal returner.
Updated: October 12, 2003, 10:40 AM ETBy John Clayton | ESPN.com
What, do you think special teams coaches are stupid? Trust me, they're not.
Dante Hall of the Chiefs keeps returning kickoffs or punts for touchdowns. He has seven returns for scores in his past 10 games, an unprecedented NFL streak. He has four returns for touchdowns in the past four games, putting him on his own planet as far as a returner. In five weeks, Hall has already equaled the season record for return touchdowns (four).
HallUnderstandably, all week the talk has been "Don't ...

The Goodguys 28th All-American Get-Together
Text and Photos by David Fetherston
It's amazing how smoothly the Goodguys shows do run! Walk in or drive in, and the place is organized and well set out, even though it's packed with over 3,000 hot rods, customs and trucks. The two-day All-American Get-Together, held this year on March 27-28, is one of the few shows that mix virtually any form of modified, custom or stock vehicle.
On the grounds of the Pleasanton Fairground, there were restored classic trucks, new and old hot rods, customs and muscle cars. A quick walk of the Car Corral field filled with cars for sale, showed off what enormous interest there were is in everything with wheels. There were high-dollar Deuces, Dodge 4×4 military wagons, Model Ts, old show cars, work-in-progress vehicles and some truly fine classics for sale. The variety in cars matched the variety in prices—some that made your eyes roll and others that got you thinking, "H-m-m, do I have the space for another car?"
The swap meet was jumpin' all weekend. It was filled to the rim with vendors, both large and small, selling anything from trinkets to bumpers to rusted hard-parts to new interior kits and headliners. The face of most swap meets has changed so much in the past 10 years with the availability of eBay, it was a relief to see so many people just poring over the vendors' booths.
At some Goodguys shows, they have taken to having a small indoor car show section. At Pleasanton, the center core of one building was filled with maybe 50 custom vehicles. There were some classic cream puff customs looking fabulous, as usual from James Hetfield, Mike Gray and John D'Agostino, Marcos Garcia and Jim Noteboom. These customs were there in competition for the Goodguys West Coast Custom of the Year Award, with its pewter statuette and $1,000 prize.
James Hetfield's Slow Burn 1936 Auburn boat tail speedster took home the award. Last year, his 1937 Ford was one of the top five finalists. The car roadster was built by Rick Dore and Darryl Hollenbeck for Hetfield. With over 3,000 vehicles on the grounds, it was a fine display of American horsepower. Filling the parks and roadways were a mass of restored and custom trucks, Deuce coupes, roadsters, chopped Mercs, Cudas, Mustangs and even the old GTO.
Hidden away among this forest of colorful sheet metal was some other intriguing machinery: Deane Monroe's '56 Jaguar Mark-VIIM was re-engineered with a GM front clip and powered by a Chevy crate motor; Mike and Stacy Bolton's orange '50 Willys Station wagon was running a 5.0L Ford; and then there was the fascinating GM performance E-Rod with its LT-3 conversion that will make any street rod or street machine smog-legal.
The texture of the show is what we think brings in so many cars and spectators. Their expectations of a grand event are fulfilled with not only the variety of cars, but with the number of vendors who turn up to show off their tricks, trinkets and hard parts. This group included Brizo, GM Performance, Painless wiring, PPG, Detroit Speed & Engineering, RaceDeck, Baer brakes, Bell Tech and Vintage Air. If you were looking for information this was the place. Every company had its tech support running in high gear, so if you wanted answers, they were there for the asking. Pinstripers Brush Bash was also racing along all weekend. Remember, if you're going to a Goodguys event and want something special, these bash events are the perfect place to get your cell phone, toolbox or make plans to get your car stripped.
Having been to all 28 All-American Get-Togethers, I have to say, apart from the West Coast Nationals, this is one of our favorite shows. We think the richness of the vehicle types and the quantity has been amazing over the years, especially as the quality has grown enormously. The show was blessed with a perfect weather weekend. All the Goodguys crew had happy faces from John Drummond to the master himself, Mr. Gary Meadors, who spent the weekend visiting with the participants and enjoying the warmth he has brought to the sport for the past 30 years.

LeadTek 6800 128mb Low performance
Hi guys,
I need a little help. I just bought a Leadtek 6800 128mb and im having some issues with Counter Strike Source. My stress test do not go above 90 fps nor below it. Ive checked the fps_max setting and its 999. I can use all graphics in High or Low, I only get about 90 fps in the stress test. Now, playing the game, on a server with 10 players, for instance, i get 30 or less fps.
Im using the latest Forceware drivers also.
My specs are: P4 2.8E, Msi NEO-2 PE (i865), 2x Samsung 40gb 7200 IDE, Soundblaster Live 7.1, Generic 500W PSU, 768mb DDR 400mhz generic RAM.
Im pretty sure its a memory or PSU problem, but in the Nvidia Properties page. I get OS as using AGP 2x, also.
Ill format my PC and reinstall Windows XP tonight anyway. I also thinking about testing Windows Vista.
Tks in advance!
Re: LeadTek 6800 128mb Low performance
The OS showing AGP 2x is normal, as long as it says 8x everywhere else.
Have you checked to see if vertical sync is disabled, both in the driver control panel and the game? Also, 768 MB of RAM is a bit low. HL2 runs better on 1 GB and ideally on 2 GB.
The power supply also could be an issue if it's generic. What is the +12v rating? You'll need to open up your case to find out.
Re: LeadTek 6800 128mb Low performance
Tks a lot for the fast response. Ill check it out as soon as i get home!
Re: LeadTek 6800 128mb Low performance
I'm sure this isn't the problem but CS:S is cpu dependent when it comes to how many players can be in the server you are playing on while remaining smooth. Keep that in mind when you are checking your fps. :D
Re: LeadTek 6800 128mb Low performance
I tested the video board with other games:
BF2 1024x768 High - 70fps no glitches.
HL2 1600x1200 High - 40 ~ 120 fps.
And i got 9980 points with 3DMark03, with 16 pipes.
So, i checked the 12v voltage, while idle 12.26v, running the game it drops to 11.60 ~ 11.66. Is it a big drop?
Re: LeadTek 6800 128mb Low performance
I played CSs in windowed mode, and i check my CPU usage. It 100% all the time. So.. i guess the problem is there right?
Aint a 2.8ghz processor good enough to play CSs? Geez..
Re: LeadTek 6800 128mb Low performance
Re: LeadTek 6800 128mb Low performance
Just for testing, i overclocked my CPU from 2.8 to 3.2 and i got about 30fps increase.
The CPU is really the bottleneck.
Im thinking about get a new CPU cooler, a Zalman 7900cu, and a better PSU so i could keep the OC.
Tks for you responses.
Re: LeadTek 6800 128mb Low performance
Re: LeadTek 6800 128mb Low performance
100% cpu is normal. very normal. CS:S and dod:D are the most cpu intensive multiplayer shooters out there right now.

MLB notebook: Burnett struck in face by batted ball
Burnett struck in face by batted ball
BRADENTON, Fla. — Pirates pitcher A.J. Burnett was struck in the face by a batted ball on Wednesday, and will fly from the team's spring training complex to Pittsburgh to have his right eye examined by team doctors.
Burnett was injured as he hit during a bunting drill.
Holding a towel against his face, Burnett was helped off the field.He left the complex without speaking to reporters. The Pirates have released no information regarding the exact nature of Burnett's injury.
A-Rod, Jeter not taking bait
TAMPA, Fla. — Alex Rodriguez laughed off Bobby Valentine's comments about his 2004 scrap with Jason Varitek, then made a brief statement and ducked through the crowd of reporters surrounding his locker.
Derek Jeter spoke longer, but was no lessbemused.
The first Yankees-Red Sox stir of the new season appears to be fizzling out.
Valentine, Boston's new manager, said Tuesday that Jeter didn't need to make his famous flip-to-home relay during the 2001 playoffs and fondly recalled when Varitek "beat up" Rodriguez in 2004.
Rodriguez said Wednesday he didn't want to get into a war of words with Valentine.
Jeter found the topic ridiculous, saying he's "indifferent" to Valentine's jabs.
Mild abdominal strain slows Moore
PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. — The Tampa Bay Rays say a mild lower abdominal strain that's slowed prized pitching prospect Matt Moore in spring training is not a major concern.
Nevertheless, the team is taking a cautious approach with the rookie left-hander.
Manager Joe Maddon stressed the injury is not considered serious, and Moore said he felt good after playing catch from 75 feet on Wednesday.

We must understand the BBC as a pre-eminent state propagandist and censor by omission, says John Pilger.
As the Lord McAlpine case shows, at some point we have to trust news organisations to tell us the truth.
The story of a generation - lied to, again and again, yet ultimately powerless.
This a flawed, human institution like any other.
There's quite a lot of settling old scores going on, says Tristram Hunt.
After the Newsnight debacle, it is excessive caution – not recklessness – that threatens the BBC.
We need a BBC Director General who is popular, like David Dimbleby or Melvyn Bragg.
If there is one consolation that the BBC can draw from the events of recent weeks, it is that so many expected better from it.
If we want to preserve quality public-service broadcasting in Britain, we must defend the Beeb.
On 14 November 1922, the first ever BBC radio broadcast went out. At troubled time for the corporation, remind yourself of all the great things it has done in the last 90 years.

Ashley Judd may need to decide soon on Senate race
The Republican-leaning group American Crossroads is assailing Judd in its own online video that also plays up the fact that she lives in Tennessee, and that she campaigned for President Barack Obama, who is unpopular in Kentucky.
Kentucky House Republican Leader Jeff Hoover said getting Judd into the race would be a boon for the state GOP because of her liberal views.
"I hope she does enter the race," Hoover said. "I think if she becomes a candidate for U.S. Senate, it will almost guarantee that we will become the majority party in the Kentucky House. Her statements on coal, her statements on traditional values are way outside what every day, hardworking Kentuckians think."
Hoover said Judd has proven a distraction for the Legislature.
"We can't seem to get pension reform done or any of the other things we need to get done because House Democratic leadership is too concerned about who has talked to Ashley, who didn't talk to her, and who she called or didn't call," Hoover said. "I just think we need to get past someone who lives in Tennessee and focus on Kentucky problems."
Beshear said his last conversation with Judd was via telephone.
"I would say without getting into the specifics of the conversation that I'm convinced she is seriously considering a race for the U.S. Senate," he said. "And we'll see where it goes."
Conway said he believes any well-known Democrat who can raise money and can articulate a positive vision for Kentucky can beat McConnell.
"He's vulnerable because he's become the poster boy for the gridlock in Washington," Conway said.
House Speaker Greg Stumbo said the outcry from Republicans about Judd entering the race is telling.
"They're scared," he said.

Police search continues for a missing teenager
Posted: March 29, 2014|
POLICE have launched a search after a school girl vanished from East Staffordshire.
Staffordshire Police issued an urged public appeal yesterday for any sightings of Amira Basharat.
The 15-year-old (pictured), who is from the Hoar Cross area, was last seen at her school, King Edwards VI, Upper St Johns Street, in Lichfield, at around 12pm on Monday, March 24.
Amira is described as Asian, 4ft 10ins tall and has very long straight black hair.
She was wearing school uniform consisting of a white shirt, black blazer, black skirt, black tights and black shoes.
Inspector Rob Neeson, of East Staffordshire Local Policing Team, said: "We consider Amira to be vulnerable due to her young age and as time passes our concern for her safety is increasing.
"We are working closely with colleagues from West Midlands Police to locate her as we believe she caught a train from Lichfield to Birmingham. It is likely she is in the Birmingham area as this is where she originates from."

Originally written on The Cardinal Connect | Last updated 9/20/13
In less than six weeks, former Louisville center Gorgui Dieng will make his NBA debut. Since being drafted in June, Dieng participated in the NBA Summer League with his new team, the Minnesota Timberwolves, and has been living in Minneapolis for the past month. The T-Wolves started pre-training camp practice this week and Dieng appears to be fitting in nicely with his new team. "I think he's more ready to play than most of those guys because he's skilled in his passing ability. He has an NBA skill and that skill is that he can guard," Minnesota GM Flip Saunders tells Fox Sports North. "Coach Pitino said he's one of the best players he had, and here s a guy who's only played ball for five or six years so he can improve, but the one thing he has is an NBA skill and he's aggressive, he knows how to defend pick and rolls, he knows how to defend inside." Louisville fans haven't had many former players to keep track of in the NBA over the past decade. That will certainly change now with D...

400-acre Hunterdon County retreat serves more than 1,200 during summer
Darell Houseton says Camp Tecumseh saved his life. Now he's helping save others.
The 19-year-old Newark man first came to the Salvation Army camp, which is nestled on 400 acres in rural Hunterdon County, in 2004 as a staff member.
"I had just completed my first year of high school, and 29 of my classmates were killed that summer, murdered," Houseton said. "Most of it was gang-related. But some people were just in the wrong place at the wrong time, innocent bystanders. Twenty-nine is a lot. And I like to think that since I was at camp, I wasn't No. 30, 'cause some of these people were my friends."
This is Houseton's sixth summer working at the residential camp in Pittstown, which offers children from across the state a week-long respite in the woods. The New Jersey Division of the Salvation Army says about 1,200 children attend Camp Tecumseh during its summer camping sessions. The camp also offers programs for senior citizens and veterans.Camp Tecumseh typically has 150 to 180 children during a week, according to Major Scott Kelly, camp director. Its 95 staff members come from across the United States and around the globe, including Northern Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, England and South Africa.
"It gives our campers a bit of a world experience," Kelly said.
It also gives urban youths a chance to see a bit of nature and rural life. Camp Tecumseh has four horses and a barn with a large sheep named Dolly, goats, ducks and chickens.
One year, Houseton brought campers, some tough older boys from Newark, to see the barnyard animals, according to Kelly.
"When you're talking inner-city kids, that's completely foreign to them," he said.
The youths got scared by an aggressive flock of ducks, and weren't happy about being near the goats or chickens, either.
"They weren't so tough after that," Kelly said. "It allowed them to break down their defenses. So they weren't as tough as they thought they were."
Camp Tecumseh costs $470 for a week's stay, but the New Jersey Salvation Army and its local centers subsidize that fee, according to Kelly.
"So the actual cost to the families is minimal," he said.
The campers come from all over the state, not just urban areas, Kelly added.
Camp Tecumseh is located on rolling green hills and was originally a Civilian Conservation Corps camp built during the Depression. The Salvation Army began using the site as a camp in 1964, and its facilities now include a new 600-seat tabernacle, a lake, a pool, a tepee village, a miniature golf course, residential cabins, a mess hall, an outdoor pavilion and a nature lodge.
As part of its programs, Camp Tecumseh conducts "Reunion Camp," where it reunites siblings who have been placed in separate foster homes by the state Division of Youth and Family Services.
Kelly recalled that a few years ago, four siblings living in four different homes were reunited at Camp Tecumseh.
"On the last night, the youngest boy was just devastated because he knew the next morning, they were going to be split up again," Kelly said. "It's heart-wrenching to see that. But to have a time when they can be here and spend time together is wonderful."
Camp Tecumseh also serves older citizens, offering five "senior" residential camps, according to Major Martina Cornell, who runs that program.
"They (the seniors) just like the fellowship," Cornell said. "They just like the break. They like the nature, the beauty of it."
Two of the five senior camps are for grandparents who have custody of their grandchildren. The senior campers enjoy a week-long stay in a lodge located across the lake from the children's cabins.
"That gives them (the grandparents) a little bit of a break and a respite while the kids are safely taken care of on this side of the lake," Kelly said.
On one recent foggy day, during a senior camp, women were doing arts and crafts, fashioning wall decorations out of bars of soap and yarn, under Cornell's direction.
"I came for first time last year," said Connie Stanford, a 72-year-old Burlington resident. "For a whole year I've been waiting to come back this time."
Stanford said she liked "everything" about Camp Tecumseh, including the religious devotions, the spiritual aspect and "the people you meet here."
She described herself as "a person who really doesn't like to go anywhere, but this fascinates me. I just love this camp. It's relaxing. Everybody helps everybody, and the major (Cornell) really looks out for me. I love everybody here."
Camp Tecumseh also runs a five-day camp program for veterans and their families, from 100 to 150 people, in late August. The New Jersey Salvation Army operates that program in cooperation with the Lyons and East Orange Veterans Hospitals. The veterans get to enjoy the kind of relaxation and recreation that the children campers do.
Houseton said Camp Tecumseh is a life-changing experience for the kids.
"When they come here each summer they know for at least a week, and when they leave, there are 100 people here who will always love them, no matter where they are," Houseton said. "And we're going to teach them about Jesus, and he's going to love them even when we're not around. And a lot of these kids just need that."

Denver Coach Mike Shanahan, carefully directing a third-string quarterback, Danny Kanell, guided the Broncos to the one-point lead they carried into the last half minute Monday night at Mile High Stadium.
Then New England Coach Bill Belichick's first-string quarterback, Tom Brady, one of the NFL's great bomb throwers, won it, 30-26, with a deep sideline shot to young wide receiver David Givens, last year's last-round draft choice from Notre Dame, who faked the Bronco coverage into the end zone before ducking away to catch the perfectly placed pass.
It was a rare prime-time matchup of top-level NFL strategist-philosophers, Shanahan and Belichick, both recent Super Bowl winners and both pass-offense enthusiasts. And Shanahan led at the half, 17-13, after patiently nursing the Broncos along on a 55-yard touchdown drive with Kanell's small repertoire of passes, including very frequent throwaways.
This suggested that Shanahan might have won if he'd had his first-string quarterback, Jake Plummer, who missed the game with a broken foot. Though Plummer will likely return to lead the Broncos' last-half-season playoff charge, the Monday nighter belonged to Belichick and his bomb-thrower.
Chiefs NFL Team of Half Year
THE PARITY SNARE, so-called, is now so all-embracing in pro football that, with few exceptions, 21st-century teams don't open the season with nine-game winning streaks. The Kansas City Chiefs (8-0) can be one of the exceptions.
After two months of pro ball, with two months left, the Chiefs are the NFL's Team of the Half Year. And if they win their Week 9 game against Cleveland Sunday, the Chiefs will be one step closer to the playoffs and a showdown with, possibly, the Indianapolis Colts (7-1).
They aren't scheduled against Indianapolis in their next eight. But if it's Chiefs vs. Colts in the AFC title game, one question is whether Chief quarterback Trent Green can hold his own with the flashier Colt quarterback, Peyton Manning.
Otherwise, these teams' running backs are about even (though Edgerrin James is faster than Kansas City's Priest Holmes) and the defenses are about even.
In the whole of that conference, only three other clubs have a championship chance: Tennessee (6-2), New England (7-2) and Denver (5-4). Food for thought: All three can outpass Kansas City: the Titans with Steve McNair, the Patriots with Tom Brady, and the Broncos if Plummer recovers fully from injury.
No Defense Can Rule Every NFL Minute
PRO FOOTBALL'S DEFENSIVE teams are almost all so powerful these days that most games are a struggle for even a quarterback like Peyton Manning, who is favored at Jacksonville Sunday, true, but who had to throw 37 times last Sunday, completing 23 for 266 yards, to get a 23-17 victory over new Miami quarterback Brian Griese, who was 18 for 29 for 231.
Manning moved the Colts repeatedly against Miami's sound defensive team, covering no fewer than 65 yards on each of six drives, but could only drive them all the way twice. That matched Griese's two-touchdown output for the Dolphins.
Actually, Griese's big plays were more impressive than Manning's. A well-placed Griese bomb set Miami up for a 7-0 lead in the first quarter, and in the second half his 23-yard touchdown pass to Chris Chambers was the longest of the game by anybody.
When good pro clubs get together — two dozen of them are playing this year in the 32-team NFL — that's often the way it goes:
The league's many superior defenses are in charge most of the time, but not — in a 60-minute game — on every play.
And when NFL offensive teams execute ideally, which happens once in a while, their many superior passers, earning or setting up a few touchdowns and field goals, can beat the great defenses.
For numerous reasons, the NFL is in balance now. But it's a balance not of mediocrity but of good teams and good players, the best football players there are.

I don't think that Evangelical Protestant and Latter-day Saint ideas on the relationship between grace and works are quite as far apart as most Evangelical Protestants and many Latter-day Saints imagine, but, to the extent that we disagree, I think that the Evangelicals are wrong. (Big surprise!) However, that's a topic for another time — and probably more for a book than for a blog entry. (The dispute over grace, or faith, and works has been raging between Catholics and Protestants, and various kinds of Protestants, and Mormons and certain kinds of Protestants for several centuries now, and I'm unlikely to put an end to it until at least late July, after I return from England and can devote a few minutes to the matter. What the article too easily refers to as "traditional Christian emphasis on grace alone" suggests a consensus where, actually, no consensus exists, not even among non-Mormons.)
But there are, as this article by my friend Peggy Fletcher Stack recounts, some Idaho-based Evangelicals currently visiting Utah in an attempt to convince Mormons that we need to become Christians(c) by, among other things, accepting their particular understanding of grace and works.
Oh well. I hope they have a good time.
What interested me as much as anything about the article is its mention of John Morehouse, who is my opposite number as "custodian" of the Evangelical Chapter of the Foundation for Religious Diplomacy — an organization on whose board I sit and for which I'm now the custodian of the Mormon Chapter.
There are, I think, really good things that are going to be coming down the pike over the next four-to-twelve months from the Foundation for Religious Diplomacy. Watch this space — or, even better, watch here — for news.

Temple finds the road to Argentina
With a pep talk from Pepe, Juan Fernandez made his way to North Philadelphia
Originally Published: October 2, 2009By Dana O'Neil | ESPN.com
Matt Langel was sitting on the tarmac at John F. Kennedy Airport when his phone dinged. Not even off the ground for what would be a grueling 14-hour trip from New York through Chile to Argentina, the Temple assistant coach cringed when he read the message.
Seemed Juan Fernandez, the talented point guard Langel was on his way to see, wasn't at home in Rio Tercero. He was in another town with his national team.
When he finally landed in Argentina, Langel went to the ...

Submarine Cargo Vessel
|Class overview
|Russian Navy
|General characteristics
|Class and type:
|Typhoon-class submarine
|175 m (574 ft 2 in)
|23 m (75 ft 6 in)
|12 m (39 ft 4 in)
|2 × pressurized-water nuclear reactors
2 shafts
|2–3 knots (2.3–3.5 mph; 3.7–5.6 km/h) surfaced (with solid ice cover up to 2.6 m)
16–18 knots (18–21 mph; 30–33 km/h) submerged
|Test depth:
|400 m (1,300 ft)
|Up to 15,000 t (14,763 long tons) of cargo
|163 men (original Typhoon)
The Submarine Cargo Vessel (Russian: Подводное транспортное судно) is a proposed idea from the Russian Rubin Design Bureau. The idea is to utilise decommissioned SSBNs (nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine) from the Russian Navy to carry cargo under the Arctic Ocean. The reason for this solution is that it would be considerably cheaper than designing and producing an entirely new type of submarine[citation needed].
The basis for the project is a Project 941 Typhoon class submarine, which was designed by Rubin in 1976. It would have its ballistic missile launchers removed and replaced with cargo holds, as well as receive extra reinforcement for surface icebreaking[citation needed].
The concept of Submarine Freight Transportation System (SFTS) was suggested in 1997 by Vladimir Postnikov. Present time this system is considered as a sea subsystem of Global Intelligent Transportation System[citation needed].

Enter to win this gorgeous planet-friendly guitar made from ethically harvested trees
With the advent of digital distribution, it's more important than ever for bands and musicians to get their work out there. There's a lot to take into consideration when it comes to recording an album, or even a song, for the first time. Don't let the overpowering amps or pro gear sway you too much -- when it comes down to it there are two golden rules: know your material inside and out, and find an engineer that knows how to create your desired sound.
Now let's touch briefly on the subject of recording levels and the importance of proper gain staging. If your signal chain consists of one mic into a pre and then into your recording interface, then it's pretty simple.

We put in a full year of planning, effort and beer wrangling to make the annual Stone Anniversary Celebration & Invitational Beer Festival the best and biggest it can be. Considering it's the largest annual beer fest on the West Coast, we're inclined to believe we do a hell of a job. We just wish it didn't go by so quick. In less than 24 hours, we blow through 364 days' worth of work and just about as many (but even more) kegs! Take, for instance, this year. Over 50 breweries from around the country showed up and brought 187 beers. And that's all in addition to the 50 Stone beers we busted out to celebrate 18 years in the craft brewing biz! It was the kind of fete we wished every fan that helped us get to this ripe (young?) age could have participated in. But alas, even with nearly 8,000 tickets sold (and more than a quarter million dollars raised for charity, thank you very much), some will only experience this special day via this blog post. So, we're going to go as in depth as possible so those who couldn't make it know what to expect when they hopefully come out next year, and those who did join us can have fun reliving the Stone 18th Anniversary Celebration & Invitational Beer Festival.
Home Run: Stone Beer at the Ballpark
The lyrics to "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" evoke memories of sunny days, the scent of fresh-cut grass and the sharp crack of pine making forceful contact with a small, red-stitched orb. There's nothing quite like baseball season. America's Pastime stirs the souls and passions of people from all walks of life—young to old, blue collar to white collar, West Coast to East Coast. It also appeals to both craft beer fans and people who don't give a rip what they swig while they take in the boys of summer, so long as it's ice cold, triple-hopped, cold-filtered or [insert lame, meaningless macro-beer company's Madison Avenue-developed buzz term here]. For so long, those enthusiastic about quality beer and baseball had to forgo the former when enjoying the latter, which makes us all the happier that, this year, we were able to debut a number of ballpark craft beer options for those seeking ales of substance in our hometown. This is a major accomplishment that comes after many years of hard work and negotiation to gain access to the prestigious Petco Park. Check out our new locations then visit them the next time you take in a San Diego Padres game.
Senses Working Overtime: Beer Appreciation 101
You don't have to be a certified beer judge or Cicerone to know when the taste of a beer strikes your fancy. But pinpointing exactly what you're experiencing—that mysterious connection between your brain and taste buds—can be tricky. Fortunately, there is a quite enjoyable remedy for this: Taste more beer! But also smell more beer and visually examine more beer. It takes all of one's senses to thoroughly evaluate ales and lagers. (OK, you don't need to hear beer, but one can't deny the anticipatory delight that stems from the sound of a bottle being opened or the sadness brought on by the last gasps of an emptied keg.) Practice makes perfect when it comes to exercising and refining your palate as well as the way you interpret beer's appearance, scents and flavors. Many reading this have had a lot of practice drinking beer, but read on for a crash course on how to really appreciate it.
Barrel Aging Part II: Original Wine & Spirit Flavors
Earlier this year, we solicited questions from our fans about our barrel-aging program, then funneled all of those queries, like fine imperial stout into barrels, to our Research and Small Batch Manager Steve Gonzalez. Steve is in charge of our barrels and has a storied vocational lineage that includes many years spent at Sierra Nevada Brewing Company and E&J Gallo Winery. Basically, he knows everything. (He's not a self-proclaimed know-it-all, mind you…we're the ones getting sublimely self-righteous on his behalf.) One of the many cool things about Steve is that he relishes the opportunity to share info about his specialized line of work. As such, he was happy to tackle our fans' questions. He tackled so many, that we're doling out his answers via a four-part series. This, the second installment, covers inquiries about wine and spirit flavors that are trapped in the barrels we use and ultimately lend flavor to the beers we age in those oak vessels.
The Whole Story: Stone Stochasticity Project
There's been some major buzz around a new beer lately. Maybe you've heard about it…a double IPA infused with a grove's worth of hand-peeled grapefruit zest. For devout Stone fans (or more casual visitors to our booth at last year's Great American Beer Festival), the name of this beer—Grapefruit Slam IPA—probably sounded quite familiar. After all, one of the one-offs we received the most compliments on from beer lovers was our Stone Ruination IPA – Grapefruit Slam Edition. Given this, of course, those deeper down the Stone rabbit hole wondered if we were behind this mysterious new Stochasticity Project brand, despite the fact the beer was registered under a different entity, Koochenvagner Brewing Company. We have something to say to those questioners, especially those who were most vocal—thank you.
Happy New Beer: Stone's 2014 Events Calendar
We don't have a crystal ball, but no bogus future-telling devices are necessary to assure our fans that the New Year holds much promise and a full slate of fun-filled beer-centric events here at Stone. From some of the country's most highly anticipated beer festivals to educational session and outright gorge-fests, there's something for every kind of beer lover, and we're proud to bring as much variety as we will delicious craft ales and lagers. The following is a breakdown of what we have in store for you in 2014!
74 Beers Ago: Looking Back on 2013
We at Stone count ourselves lucky to have so many fans of what we do and the beers we create. Most of those who've tagged along as we forge through this hop-studded journey have taken fandom to new heights. That level of devotion is something we don't take lightly and work to reward by coming up with new beer recipes and getting those brews into our staunch supporters' hands and pint glasses. As devotees keeping a watchful eye on us will attest, 2013 was a big year for new Stone brews. But even our most keyed-in fans were probably unaware of just how big. We say this, because after examining 12 months' worth of brewing schedules, even our jaws dropped to the floor when we discovered that we had delivered 74 new beers outside our not-so-standard standard-issue brews this year. So, join us, won't you, as we revisit them and other notable Stone happenings from the year that was.
God Bless Us, Everyone: Stone Beer-Infused Holiday Goodness
You can deck the halls with as many boughs of holly as you can get your mittened hands on, but without plates, bowls, baskets and platters of tasty holiday-themed sustenance scattered around your decked out abode, those decorations are bound to be a bit for naught. You can't eat holly or mistletoe (or at least you shouldn't), and those candy canes and stale popcorn hanging on the tree just won't cut the myrrh-infused mustard. What every home needs come December is an array of warming, comforting treats and tidbits that burst with traditional holiday flavors and drive home the yuletide spirit. Never ones to point out a deficiency without providing a potential solution, we have the answer to any home's lack of goodies in the form of several beer-infused recipes straight from our own Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens kitchens as well as some well-respected craft beer and cooking aficionados. Clear some space in the kitchen, line up those brews and join us in making sure everyone who visits your place over the holidays leaves feeling fuller and a lot more jolly!
A Tale of Three Bastards: Crime, Punishment & Southern Charred
Since 1997, our infamous Arrogant Bastard Ale has been kicking fizzy yellow beer drinkers square in the palate and forcing them to take notice of what good beer really is, forever changing the tastes and habits of the uninitiated and converting them to the culture of craft beer. Such was the instant allure of this mighty brew that the year after it debuted, we crafted an imperialized version and dubbed it Double Bastard Ale. Other iterations followed: a wood-infused take called OAKED Arrogant Bastard Ale, as well as a blend of all of the aforementioned members of the Arrogant Bastard Ale family called Lukcy Basartd Ale (no, you didn't read that wrong, and we didn't commit an offense against the grammar gods…that's the way we spell it). All four are cult favorites among craft beer enthusiasts craving exceptional brews with substantial flavor and oomph. This year, that lengthy staying power led us to celebrate the beer by not only conducting our annual November release of Double Bastard Ale, but also reviving two other dastardly Bastard variations and adding an entirely new offspring of this self-assured line to the mix. Get to know all three of this year's specialties and marvel at their complexity, diversity and awesome ability to continue to engage—and perhaps challenge—even the most stalwart craft beer devotee.
Ego-Boosting Brew: Stone Sublimely Self-Righteous Ale
It should come as no surprise to anyone that the company that produced an unapologetic beer called Arrogant Bastard Ale sees no reason to defend its own self-assured state of mind. We've been bullish on the notion of bold, flavorful, artisanally produced beers long before many caught on and began to flock like moths with particularly good taste to an insanely bright and attractive flame. Thanks to our naturally inquisitive and adventurous style of brewing—big hops, big flavor, big wood, etc.—we've been ahead of the curve at nearly every turn in the dramatic American craft brewing revolution. So, we're justified in being pretty pleased with ourselves and our innovative brewed creations. Hence the moniker of our black India pale ale, Stone Sublimely Self-Righteous Ale.

One question: How can a hurricane expert be based in landlocked Colorado? We like the sound of an El Nino here on the West Coast…
Bring it on…to a degree please…
As reported on www3.signonsandiego.com
FORT COLLINS, Colo. — Hurricane experts at Colorado State University have scaled back their prediction for the Atlantic and now say this will be an average season with 12 named storms, including six hurricanes. They say two of them could be major.
Researchers William Gray and Phil Klotzbach earlier predicted an above-average season with 14 named storms – seven of them hurricanes and three major.
Gray said Tuesday the forecast was dialed down because of improved chances of El Nino conditions that suppress hurricane formation.

1. The Training Barrel provides the ability of realistic dry-fire weapon handling during practice and training but more importantly eliminates any chance for a tragic accident, such as a negligent accidental discharge. 2. The training barrel will allow full slide function which aids in tap rack manipulation drills and trigger function. 3. The training barrel allows the operator/instructor to use his/her OWN weapon by simply removing the factory barrel and inserting the high visibility yellow training barrel which is recognized as a safety color. 4. By using the training barrel one of the many key benefits is that you will be able to get good sight picture while presenting the pistol to a threat or target, this eliminates bad habits and promotes good training habits. 5. The training barrel is ideal for disarming, weapon retention, room clearing and CQB tactics. 6. While the solidly constructed training guns available today are 100% safe, they are not beneficial to teaching or demonstrating weapon manipulation along with trigger function. 7. The training barrel is lighter, smaller, and easier to transport than plastic training weapons and is made with strong impact resistant material which prevents flexing& bending; and is resistant to harsh chemicals. 8. The training barrel is less expensive and more economical than the average training weapon. 9. The training barrel has no complex parts to attach, lock/unlock, etc. It is one piece construction. No extra equipment is needed. 10. The Training Barrel works with all holsters! In the case of closed bottom holsters the barrel length can be modified to fit by just shortening the Training Barrel's length (easily done with a hacksaw). The 19/23 barrel will also work in the 26/27, Just needs to be shortened to desired length. (Easily done with a hacksaw) 11. It makes weapons on display at trade Shows or in a gun stores 100% safe, allowing the potential client's, student's and customer's to observe and handle the weapon. 12. Instructors can maintain possession of all real barrels until students have demonstrated proficiency with handling the weapon and "graduate" to the actual barrel. 13. Eliminates using annoying large steel dry fire plates at training schools. 14. The Training Barrel is backed by a 1 year warranty!

I purchased several of these items for my Glocks (17/19/26) for training (ie-slap, rack, go/magazine changing drills/weapons retention/trigger control/etc...).
I have had to send back 2 sets of all three models due to sheering of the barrel stud (I purchased them from Brownells who has been awesome about the returns and even paying for my postage).
While I believe that the concept is great (a yellow replacement barrel so no accidental discharges during training), I don't believe that Blade-Tech has perfected the polymer mixture to be tough enough to withstand the riggers of heavy training (with the recoil springs). They may want to look into re-enforcing the barrel stud more, changing the polymer mixture, or going with aluminum.

|My Bio
I'm a proud working mom and wife. In 1999 I came to the US with nothing but a work permit, a suitcase full of clothes and a few dollars. I love to cook and it was my mother's German recipes that gave me comfort in the beginning until I got settled.
Over the years and many potlucks later I finally published my first book featuring some of just these German family recipes, because so many people have always asked for the recipes.
I never thought I would go into book writing and publishing, but life takes strange turns. And so the journey begins with my first cookbook "Simply Delicious".
Thank You!

Hoard all the soul gems you can. If you do the iron dagger smithing spam to build your smithing skills, you should have a billion iron daggers left over. don't sell them! enchant them with petty/common soul gems (in conjunction with training with babete or whatever the little girls name is at the dark brotherhood) to quickly raise your enchanting skill level. It HAS to be at 100 to enable the dual enchant perk which is HUGE.
Then sell all the enchanted daggers 1 by 1 (ideally with a necklace or ring that improves speechcraft and/or merchant haggling prices to get better gold) and selling a ton will build your speechcraft.
<CACKLES MADLY> Well I know what I'm doing this weekend!
And regarding the trolling - I'm going to enjoy watching Bob go KGB on your asses.
