Timberwolves forward Love withdraws from Team USA
basketball • Kevin Love still doesn't know where he will play next season, his NBA future hanging in the air while a league rule complicates a potential trade to Cleveland. The only thing certain from a basketball standpoint for Love is that he won't be playing for Team USA this summer.
Love had to withdraw from Team USA's roster while the Minnesota Timberwolves field offers for their three-time All-Star, a process that was extended when Cavaliers rookie Andrew Wiggins signed his contract this week.
Love is the latest All-Star to pull out of Team USA, which begins its training camp in Las Vegas on Monday to prepare for the FIBA World Cup in Spain. In recent weeks the Americans have lost Blake Griffin, LaMarcus Aldridge and NBA Finals MVP Kawhi Leonard. They have 18 players remaining and will choose 12 for the World Cup of Basketball roster.
Love, who won gold medals at the 2012 Olympics and 2010 world championship and was one of the first players to commit to play this summer, told USA Basketball chairman Jerry Colangelo that he would be unavailable for training camp.
The Timberwolves have demanded Wiggins, the No. 1 overall draft pick, in a package in return for Love. Under NBA rules, Wiggins cannot be traded until 30 days after he signed his contract with the Cavaliers. That means any possible deal involving the 19-year-old forward could not be completed and announced by the teams until Aug. 23 at the earliest.
Isner advances to Atlanta Open final
tENNIS • Top-seeded defending champion John Isner advanced to the Atlanta Open final for the fourth time in the tournament's five-year history, beating practice partner Jack Sock 7-5, 6-4.
Isner will face Israel's Dudi Sela in the final, after Sela defeated Germany's Ben Becker 6-3, 3-6, 6-3.
Isner, ranked No. 12 in the world, improved to 15-3 in the event. The former University of Georgia star broke Sock's service twice each time to capture a set.
• Unseeded pair Pablo Andujar and Juan Monaco advanced to the Swiss Open title match in Gstaad. Andujar, ranked No. 71, beat fourth-seeded Fernando Verdasco 6-3, 6-7 (2), 6-1 in an all-Spain semifinal at the clay-court Roy Emerson Arena. Argentina's Monaco beat seventh-seeded Robin Haase of the Netherlands 6-3, 7-6 (4).
Penn State hires former California AD
college athletics • Penn State hired Sandy Barbour as athletic director, a month after she stepped down as AD at the University of California-Berkeley. The 54-year-old Barbour replaces David Joyner, who announced he was resigning last month. Joyner took over at Penn State in the wake of the Jerry Sandusky scandal and held the job for two and a half years.
Barbour, who spent 10 years at Cal, was given a five-year contract that pays $700,000 per year with potential bonuses worth a potential additional $200,000 per year.

SAN FRANCISCO (USA TODAY) -- Apple unveiled new iPads Tuesday as the technologygiant tries to beat back rising competition from Google, Samsung andAmazon.com in the fast-growing tablet market.
Apple executive PhilSchiller introduced a new full-sized tablet called iPad Air. It weighsone pound, significantly lighter than previous models, and is a lotthinner.
The tablet has a faster chip, new camera, dualmicrophones and comes in white, silver and space grey. The 16GB Wi-Fiversion costs $499 and it will be available Nov. 1 in many countries,including China for the first time, Schiller said.
PHOTOS: Apple unveils new products
Thenew iPad mini gets the crisper Retina display and the new A7 Applechip, Schiller also said. It comes in silver, space grey and white. Itcosts $399 for 16GB Wi-Fi and will be available later in November.
DETAILS: Coverage from the live event
Appleis also keeping the older iPad mini and will drop the price to $299 forthe entry model. It's also keeping the larger iPad 2, which will sellfor $399 for the base model.
Despite those price cuts, Apple'sannouncements Tuesday confirmed that the company is sticking to itshigh-price strategy for newer devices, Gene Munster, an analyst at PiperJaffray, said. Apple raised the entry price for the latest iPad mini to$399 from $329, he noted.
"Other companies would be incrediblyproud to have just one of these products. We're pleased to present allthese to you ahead of the holidays," Apple CEO Tim Cook said.
Apple shares slipped 0.8% to $517.23 in afternoon trading following the new product announcements.
Apple'sshare of the tablet market has been sliding as cheaper tablets runningGoogle's Android operating system become more popular.
FIRST TAKE: iPad Air steals show with familiar feel
Androidwill have 49.6% of the worldwide tablet sector this year, while Applewill have 48.6% - making 2013 the first year Android will lead,according to Gartner estimates. In 2011, Apple's share was almosttwo-thirds, and Android was below 30%.
Still, there's a lot tofight for. Tablet shipments are expected to surge 43% to more than 263million units in 2014, making it almost as big a market as PCs, Gartnerestimates.
A revived iPad line is crucial for Apple, because WallStreet has begun to think of the company as a "one product" story again,Barclays analyst Ben Reitzes, wrote in a recent note to investors.

Go-Busters 41 & 42
The Go-Busters go to this guy's house who has found a Messiah Card…but he wants 10million yen for it. See Go-Busters, that's what you get for advertising a reward! They want to look at it just to check, and the guy glances at a massive safe. And then, a woman in a pink wig and a pink version of the Go-Busters civilian uniform appears in the window. She flips across the room, easily crack the safe, leaves a card, and leaps out of the window. The card – her name is Phantom Thief Pink Buster. I'm having Abare Pink vibes.
The three chase after and encounter her in the streets – Yoko is thrown from a balcony (and somehow doesn't get hurt), Ryuuji has flour (?) thrown in his face, but, she stops to talk to Hiromu. 'The more dangerous something is, the more valuable it will be'. I guess that's her motivation. The two are soon met by Buglers and Hiromu morphs. He tries to convince her to hand over the card, but she runs. Hiromu leaves Ryuuji and Yoko with the Bugles while he chases after her. Um, it's now day all of a sudden and Hiromu can't find Pink Buster anywhere….all he sees is one woman walking by. Come on, Hiromu! That's obviously her! There's no one else around! Come on! Anyway, this woman gets into a taxi and takes out a Messiah card from her bag. KNEW IT.
Back at the EMC, the team discuss Pink Buster – a thief who can appear like a ghost, who only steals from villains. Is she trying to help, but failing miserably? Hiromu wants to find her before the Metaroid forms, but a Megazord is already transporting! SHOCK! The Go-Busters find the Metaroid at the guy's house (the guy at the beginning, who was polishing a Ganesh statue, I should probably add). The guy simply hands over this statue as soon as they arrive. I thought he was greedy? The Metaroid reveals himself as Louperoid (based on a magnifying glass…apparently) and he leaves.
Hiromu runs into the streets where he meets Pink Buster once again. Hiromu says he doesn't have time for her, but she holds up a Messiah Card and claims she was thinking of giving it back (as if). So Louperoid came from a different card perhaps? Hiromu tries to grab the card, but Pink Buster keeps nonchalantly moving out of the way, but her glasses are soon knocked off and Hiromu recognizes her as the woman from before! Really? Hiromu can remember a random woman's face? She reveals herself as Saotome Reika and she asks Hiromu to close his eyes while moving closer to him. She grabs his Morphin Brace with little effort and uses it for bribery. If Hiromu helps her with her job, he'll get that Messiah Card. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Alonso is right, I mean a driver needs the car underneath him in order to deliver the results, this year more than ever qualifying up front is paramount.
Ferrari have clearly not developed the car as good as red bull have and it's showing, I think Ferrari have thrown the title away as they simply do not keep apace with red bull & Mclaren, I'm a Ferrrari fan so it's not good.
Unless Ferrari can deliver a big upgrade which gives Alonso a 2-3 tenths per lap advantage then vettel will be champion.

Wayne Koestenbaum: The Desire to WriteAugust 22, 2011 | By
Filed under: Essay
The Desire to Write about Young Sailor
I could exorcise my love for this Matisse painting by writing about the patch of unadulterated blue, a triangle, which represents the receding plane of the sailor's chair. Because this blue patch echoes the blue sky, mimicry modifies our ability to read the chair as a surface; instead, the seat becomes the brightest horizon we'll ever receive an invitation to traverse and to destroy. I don't want to write about the young sailor's crotch; my desire to write about Matisse's colors exceeds my waning wish to describe his evocation, in black and green, of (according to the catalogue) "a young fisherman he had met in Collioure." Trying to pronounce "Collioure," I pucker: an agreeable astringency.

An article in Saturday's Guardian reports that left-wing icon Noam Chomsky has given his "reluctant endorsement to the Democratic party's presidential contender, John Kerry". Chomsky's support for Kerry is far from enthusiastic. He describes the choice between Bush and Kerry as one "between two factions of the business party" and Kerry as "Bush-lite", only a "fraction" better than his Republican opponent. But Chomsky argues that the current administration is exceptionally "cruel and savage" and "deeply committed to dismantling the achievements of popular struggle through the past century no matter what the cost to the general population." He concludes that "despite the limited differences [between Bush and Kerry] both domestically and internationally, there are differences. In a system of immense power, small differences can translate into large outcomes."
Chomsky's acceptance of the "anybody but Bush" position is sure to be influential, but on this occasion the arguments he offers represent wishful thinking rather than the clear-headed political analysis for which he is famous. There is no question that the Bush administration's policies are "cruel and savage", but John Kerry (along with the majority of Democrats in the Senate) supported most of them, including the war on Afghanistan, the Patriot Act, the war on Iraq, and the "No Child Left Behind" education act. As Marjorie Williams pointed out in the Washington Post recently, "Kerry voted for so many of Bush's major initiatives that in order to disown them now he can only argue that they were wrongly or dishonestly 'implemented.' This amounts to a confession that his opponent made a chump of him for the past three years. In fact, one might argue that Kerry is a poster boy for all the ways in which congressional Democrats have allowed themselves to be rolled by the Bush administration."
The Bush administration has pushed US politics sharply to the right, but this represents not a qualitative break with what came before but an extension and continuation of "cruel and savage" policies implemented by other administrations over the past 25 years, Democratic as well as Republican. Bush's attacks on civil liberties build on the legacy of Bill Clinton, including the 1996 Effective Death Penalty and Anti-Terrorist act (supported, incidentally, by Kerry). And while Bush is certainly committed to "dismantling the achievements of popular struggle through the past century no matter what the cost to the general population", nothing that he has yet done in terms of social policy has equaled the brutality of Clinton's gutting of the federal welfare system (again supported by Kerry).
In terms of foreign policy, the differences are even smaller. Kerry's criticisms of Bush are purely tactical, as was abundantly clear in a recent interview in Time magazine:
"Look, I'm prepared to take any action necessary to protect the country, and I'm prepared to act unilaterally if we have to," Kerry insists, noting that he backed the use of force in Grenada, Panama, Kosovo and Afghanistan. "But there is a way to do it that strengthens the hand of the United States. George Bush has weakened the hand of the United States."
In fact, Kerry wants to send an additional 40,000 troops to Iraq, advocates a "muscular internationalism" in the tradition of 20th-century Democratic presidents (whose foreign policy record was far bloodier than their Republican counterparts) and even refuses to rule out "preventive" wars. Chomsky is right that "small differences can translate into large outcomes", but this plays both ways. Kerry, for instance, may be in a better position than Bush to push through the reintroduction of the draft, just as it took a Democrat to implement welfare "reform".
Making decisions about the presidential election on the basis of the minute differences between the two major party candidates is ultimately a mug's game. Whoever wins in November, we'll need the biggest and most militant social movements on the ground to fight their policies, but when activists get sucked into support for the Democrats the movements are weakened and sometimes destroyed. In 1964, when the Republicans nominated the anti-communist fanatic Barry Goldwater as their candidate, anti-war activists thought they could go "Half the way with LBJ". But as the late Hal Draper remarked in a classic article on the politics of "lesser evilism":
… you know all the people who convinced themselves that Lyndon Johnson was the lesser evil as against Goldwater, who was going to do Horrible Things in Vietnam, like defoliating the jungles. Many of them have since realized that the spiked boot was on the other foot; and they lacerate themselves with the thought that the man they voted for "actually carried out Goldwater's policy." (In point of fact, this is unfair to Goldwater: he never advocated the steep escalation of the war that Johnson put through; and more to the point, he would probably have been incapable of putting it through with as little opposition as the man who could simultaneously hypnotize the liberals with "Great Society" rhetoric.)
"So who was really the Lesser Evil in 1964?" asked Draper. "The point is that it is the question which is a disaster, not the answer. In setups where the choice is between one capitalist politician and another, the defeat comes in accepting the limitation to this choice." The same is true in 2004. The most liberal administration of the past 35 years was led by Republican Richard Nixon, who was forced to respond to ghetto rebellions, wildcat strikes and radical social movements. But the historic role of the Democrats has been to muzzle such movements. If we choose Kerry over Bush, we make it more difficult to do the only thing that ever makes a difference for our side–building real activism on the ground.
Think again Noam.

For those of you facing Google Chrome problems with the web browser displaying an error message notifying you that it cannot resolve the host's name; understand that this is an issue related to a feature of chrome called "DNS Pre-Fetching".
And as such, you can proceed to resolving the same by following the instructions given in this article.
Resolving Google Chrome problems as a result of the Host
Given below are some of the most effective workarounds:
Disabling DNS Pre-Fetching feature
You can disable the DNS pre-fetching feature for your web browser by clicking on the "Wrench" button and then selecting "Options". From the next new window that displays, click on the "Under the Hood" tab to deselect the "Use DNS pre-fetching to improve page load performance" or "Predict network actions to improve page load performance" checkbox. This will disable the same feature for you.
Software Update
Google pushes new updates for Chrome to the users automatically. Therefore, you must always make sure that your application has the latest updates installed for optimum performance. However, if you have blocked the automatic update feature on your computer or that the update process failed, your Chrome installation may have an issue which can in turn prevent the browser from resolving hosts. So try and update your Chrome browser by clicking on the "Wrench" button then selecting "About Google Chrome".
Internet Connection or DNS Problem
Chances are the same problem with Chrome can occur if your Internet connection is down or if your Internet Service Provider's DNS server isn't responding. In such a case, you can make use of the "ping" command in the Command Prompt window to troubleshoot the issue. If you are able to ping an IP address using a command for example "ping 188.8.131.52″, it means that your Internet Service Provider's DNS server is fine. However, if you are unable to do so, your internet connection may be down.
Resetting Chrome
Finally, if you have exhausted all troubleshooting options, you can try resetting Chrome to its default configuration as a last resort. Do so by renaming the file "First Run" and the folder "User Data". You can locate both these items from the folders "Local\Google\Chrome\Application" under your Windows user folder. Also make sure to create a backup for your bookmarks before resetting Chrome as this process may result in the loss of all bookmarks and settings.

Tony Merk Scholarship Fund
Tony Merk Scholarship Fund
La Salle High School in partnership with the Merk family have created the Tony Merk Memorial Scholarship Fund to keep the spirit of Tony alive.
Below is a brief synopsis from the Merk family:
"We believe Catholic education, particularly a LaSallian education, is invaluable in developing strong leaders and good Christian young adults. We have personally witnessed the strong character of LaSallian young men in the love and generosity they gave to Tony and our family. We also fully understand the expense involved in a Catholic education so are very pleased to have the opportunity to offset the costs of a LaSallian education for a young man who desires it. La Salle is like family to us and we are excited about the opportunity to help welcome a young man into the family who might otherwise not be able to afford it.
We are thankful Tony's inspiration can help give a young man the opportunity for a LaSallian education. Tony is a Lancer in spirit and with the Tony Merk scholarship, he will attend La Salle through the young men receiving the scholarship. For us, it will be as if Tony is attending La Salle – in the spirit of the young men who receive the scholarship."
As a part of our efforts to keep Tony's memory alive, La Salle has organized the following:

The Discipline of God
by Joel Beeke
Church programs, campus ministries, and independent organizations today emphasize the need for radical discipleship. It is not always clear what they mean by this. The word radical can be a trendy term. What is clear is this: if one's view of discipleship undervalues discipline, then we can say that whatever adjective that person uses before the term discipleship, the latter has ceased to be biblical.
The words disciple and discipline derive from one Latin root and carry the notion of order. Referring to treatment that corrects or punishes, discipline is instruction or knowledge given to a learner (discipulus). Discipleship and discipline are inseparably connected; Jesus' ministry exemplifies that. Christ did not hesitate to correct His disciples (Matt. 8:26; Mark 10:14, 16:14; Luke 9:54–55), who often addressed Him as "Rabbi" or "Teacher."
This is not surprising, for what godly father allows his child to persevere in disobedience? Hebrews declares, "For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth" (12:6, KJV used throughout). The Father's chastening is indispensable to our relationship with Him. When the Father adopts us into His family, showering us with love, He treats us as true sons, fatherly discipline included. Discipline is not an end in itself; God uses it to correct our defective behavior and bring us to obedience (Lev. 26:23; 1 Cor. 5:5). Determined to have holy children, God disciplines us privately through providences and publicly through church discipline.
That means, first, that every Christian undergoes private chastisements for sin. After David committed adultery with Bathsheba and then murdered Uriah, the Lord sent Nathan to rebuke him. "The Lord also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die. Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die" (2 Sam. 12:13–14). The Lord sent David consequences for his sin to vindicate His own honor and lovingly brought David to repentance and worship, as Psalm 51 poignantly describes. "Chastising is an effect of his love," says John Owen.
A cautionary note is that not every chastening act of providence stems from divine discipline. Though all suffering derives from the fall, there is not always a direct correlation between personal sin and personal suffering, as the accounts of Job and the man born blind plainly teach (see John 9:3). In their cases, God's chastening hand was motivated primarily by the furthering of His own glory. We cannot always link suffering to specific sin.
Second, Christ viewed discipline as part of church ministry. In establishing the New Testament church, Jesus committed to His disciples the keys of the kingdom along with the power to bind and loose (Matt. 16:19; 18:15–18; John 20:23). The strong language in these passages should not be interpreted too literally, as if the church itself has the power to forgive or condemn sin eternally. But Jesus has specially empowered the overseers of His church to regulate its membership and conduct. He instructs them whom to include and whom to exclude, and He provides biblical precepts that members must obey.
Church discipline thus has positive and negative aspects. Positively,church discipline includes instruction and teaching. The church is every believer's educator, trainer, and nourisher, as the Spirit acts through the preached Word, the sacraments, and church discipline. Negatively, discipline involves corrective actions for members, from rebuke to excommunication (Matt. 18:15–17). In this, the church officers utilize the keys of the kingdom.
The apostles and early church leaders understood Christ's instructions as abiding principles. The apostolic church administered firm discipline to those erring in doctrine or practice. Witness, for example, Paul's sharp admonitions to the Galatians for abandoning the gospel (Gal. 3:1–7) and how he urges the Thessalonians to withdraw from the disobedient (2 Thess. 3:6; see also Titus 3:10) and the Corinthian church to expel the immoral believer (1 Cor. 5:4–8). Passing the torch of ministry to younger pastors Timothy and Titus, Paul insists those who sin should face public rebuke (1 Tim. 5:20) and that vain talkers and deceivers must be stopped (Titus 1:10– 11). Jude bids the church save some "with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh" (Jude 1:23). The church is to discipline believers if their behavior is inconsistent with the gospel.
The apostles, then, viewed discipline as a requisite, perpetual function of the church. The church is to regulate who is part of the community, disciplining members who seriously err in doctrine and life, and expelling impenitent members (Matt. 18:15–17). Not an end in itself, expulsion is the public means God uses to cause repentance or cleanse His church of defilement. "Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump," says 1 Corinthians 5:7.
The Reformers generally identified three marks of a true church: sound preaching of the Word, right administration of the sacraments, and biblical exercise of discipline. An important part of the church's ministry is to grow believers from spiritual infancy to adulthood by instructing and correcting. Quoting Cyprian's saying, "You cannot have God as your Father if you do not have the church as your mother," John Calvin explained that God gathers His children into the bosom of the church "not only that they may be nourished by her help and ministry as long as they are infants and children, but also that they be guided by her motherly care until they mature and at last reach the goal of faith" (Institutes of the Christian Religion 4.1.1).
Discipline thus promotes genuine piety and godliness rather than rebellion or legalism — privately and in church ministry. By cultivating private disciplines such as Bible reading and meditation, praying, devotional reading, and journaling, Christians usually grow in godliness. But godliness also results from public church discipline, which should seek to encourage Christians to repentance and to live lives of holy, responsive, gratuitous obedience to God. Discipline so practiced offers the law as a set of rules we must follow not to earn God's acceptance but to express gratitude for being accepted in the Beloved (Eph. 1:6). Believers do not achieve genuine piety by legalistic law-keeping, but by a life of love conversant with God's law, flowing from our standing in Christ. Thus, piety is not isolationist spirituality but a lifestyle of loving God and neighbor fostered by spiritual discipline. It brings together the freedom of love and the discipline of obedience. From these considerations, we may conclude that piety grows best in the context of the church, where preaching, administering the sacraments, and discipline work together to promote godly living in the home, church, school, and marketplace.
Today, though, discipline has declined in the contemporary church; churchgoers see themselves as independent, voluntary members, accountable to no one. But Hebrews 13:7 says that submission to God and His appointed authorities, not autonomy, is a mark of faith. Our baptism into the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost signifies this subjection to authority. When the Israelites were "baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea," they were baptized under his God-given authority (1 Cor. 10:2). Baptism into the name of the triune God means that God calls us to be His disciples and brings us under His authority, exercising that authority through the church.
Some think that church discipline is cruel; they fail to see that giving medicine to the sick is never cruel. Others fear that church discipline will strip the church of her glory, costing respect and members. In actuality, when the church faithfully administers discipline, she grows in respect, glory, and often membership, just as she did after Ananias and Sapphira were disciplined (Acts 5). Others argue that God does not need officers to keep His church pure since vengeance belongs to Him — He will manage His own vineyard. It is true that God needs no man. But He delegates authority to human officers who exercise discipline in His name, for His glory and the church's purity. Sadly, few Christians realize today that receiving discipline from Jesus' appointed office-bearers, ruling in accord with God's Word, is receiving discipline from our Father Himself.
Discipline, then, is inseparable from discipleship. This is evident in our private lives, as God promises chastisement to all His children, and in the ministry of the church to her members. We must reclaim the teaching of the New Testament, the ancient church, and the Reformers, that receiving God's discipline willingly is a distinguishing mark of every true Christian. God promised to disciple and discipline His children, Jesus commanded it of His disciples, the apostles insisted on it in the churches, and the Reformers reckoned it a mark of the true church. As we await the judgment day, let us strive to disciple and discipline as God does, so the church might appear a spotless, beautiful bride for her long-awaited Bridegroom.

So if you have listened to our podcasts, (which you should) you know we have a Steelers friend – Dave from South Bend. Well, Dave is actually born and bred in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. Why is he a Steelers fan we still don't know, even after prodding him during our podcast. Anyways, Dave is also a pretty well-informed fan and quite frankly I didn't want to talk to anymore black and gold dimwits explaining how they have the greatest franchise this week than I had to. Remember 12>6!
So Steelers Superfan #1, David McCoy is joined us this week for our weekly Q&A – Super Bowl edition. (Man, that does have a nice ring to it!)
1) Is the Pouncey injury the last straw for the Steelers' offensive line? Do you believe they have enough to handle the front of Jenkins/Raji/Pickett, coupled with whatever exotic blitz schemes Capers draws up?
The Steelers' offensive line has been making my stomach turn for years. Last season, remember, it gave up the second-most sacks in the league (50), only Green Bay had more (51). This year, only seven teams allowed more sacks, and only one of those seven made the playoffs (Chicago, with the most). Over the past few seasons, the O-line play has been one of the biggest (if not THE biggest) liabilities on the team. And the Pouncey injury definitely hurts, especially against a Green Bay front that will really bring the heat. I'll be honest – it makes me really nervous. But I take comfort in a couple of things. One, despite the unit's pass-protect struggles, they've been a very good in the running game – top 1/3 in the league. And if they can effectively run the ball (like they usually do), there aren't as many pass blocking situations where things can go wrong. And Two, Ben Roethlisberger. If it were any other quarterback in that pocket, pass protection would be a much bigger issue. But he is a big, tough guy to bring down… and quite often, he's at his BEST after the pocket breaks down. If Jay Cutler or Peyton Manning or Aaron Rodgers was this line's QB, it would be a bigger problem. But Roethlisberger makes a huge difference. Doug Legursky has some big shoes to fill. But by all accounts, aside from the fumbled snap that allowed a safety, he played pretty well against the Jets. He's no Pro Bowler Pouncey, but he'll be alright.
2) Outside of Ben Roethlisberger, who is the most important offensive player for the Steelers on Sunday and why?
No question, it's Rashard Mendenhall. I do not want to get into a game where it's Roethlisberger v. GB's secondary, up against Rodgers v. Pitt's secondary. The Packers win that game. Green Bay's secondary is deeper, and a little better. So Pittsburgh HAS to be able to run the ball. An effective running game will do two things – allow Green Bay's front seven fewer opportunities to make a big play against suspect pass-blockers, and minimize the amount of times Roethlisberger has to throw into that secondary. All that aside… when Rashard is on, he can take over a game himself. So that would be big too.
3) Put yourself in Dick LeBeau's shoes for a minute. What kind of game plan would you roll out against Aaron Rodgers?
I bring pressure. I make Bryan Bulaga earn his paycheck. I bring Polamalu up for a play… in coverage for two… up for one, back for two….. over and over. Woodley and Harrison are coming on nearly every play. I do not allow Rodgers time, and I put him on his back as many times as possible. That's easier said than done… but One, I like my chances against Green Bay's O-line, and Two, I don't like my chances if Rodgers has time to make reads. And this is not a defense designed to drop into coverage, anyway. This is a defense designed to blitz, with players who can make big plays.
4) Some analysts say the Packers have more talent, but the Steelers have more experience. Some also say they would take talent over experience any day. When the ball is kicked off, how much do you think that experience will matter?
I don't put a whole lot of stock in the whole experience thing. I think it absolutely helps to a certain degree, but not nearly enough to decide the game. Impact on the game, yes… Big impact, no. And I'm not so sure the Packers have more talent, either. I think, position by position, the talent is pretty equal, aside from an advantage at RB for Pitt, and a (slight) advantage for Green Bay at DB. All things being equal, I think you throw those kind of things out the window. These are two very evenly matched teams, and one or two plays are going to decide this one. It might be a fumble on special teams, an interception by a No. 5 cornerback in a nickel package, or a touchdown by a third-down running back. And in that case, experience and talent don't apply.
5) Where do you see the biggest advantage and disadvantage between these two teams and who is more likely to exploit them?
Here's what I think: (Just my opinion)
QB – Slight advantage Pit
RB – Advantage Pit
TE – Advantage Pit
O-line – Advantage GB
WR – Slight advantage GB
D-line – Push
LB – Push
DB – Slight Advantage GB
ST – Advantage GB
To answer your question, there's no blaring mismatch that stands out. That's one thing that makes this game so intriguing and so tough to call. But the biggest difference I see is that the Steelers run the ball better than Green Bay, and the Steelers stop the run better than Green Bay. Both of these teams can throw it, both of these teams can defend/attack the throw. But there's not the disparity between the two that there is in the running game. As I think I said on the podcast, I see this game being won or lost on the matchup between the Steelers run game vs. the Green Bay D-line. The team that wins that matchup wins the game.
Final Prediction:
I think we're in store for one hell of a game. One where you don't want to turn away for a single play. It's probably a good thing that the Black Eyed Peas are playing the halftime show, because that's the only chance I'll get to pee. And at least I won't be missing anything.
Steelers 24, Packers 23
Thanks to David McCoy from South Bend joining us this week. I really don't have anything nice to say to him, so as always feel free to rip his takes below.

One of my planning-stage projects is a UL tripod for a SLR w/300mm lens. In designing the head, I'm wondering what I'd have to do to put the leg supports on. I might be able to have a block milled by a machinist, but it seems like a heckuva lot of waste. Thoughts?
Technoweld will braze aluminum but it's gonna take real skill to use it well. Frankly I'd plan to use simple rivets and/or adhesive - it's cheap, light and easy to do.
Make the head out off wood and use threaded T-nuts into the wood to receive threaded legs.
> I might be able to have a block milled by a machinist, but it seems like a heckuva lot of waste.For a one-off? Hardly: it's a very small block of Al to start with.Let us know how this goes - I have often speculated about it myself.
Ahhh- I forgot the vital "ingredient" and question under the question. I was going to make it out of titanium. But for something like this (0.25" thick, 2.25" diameter, plus leg supports) how much weight savings would I find between Ti and Al? Would it be an ounce or less? Thanks!
The density of Ti is 4.5 g/cc. Al is 2.7 g/ccSo....Ti is 1.666 denser/heavier than Al.An Ti isn't particularly easy to machine.Save weight and $$ with Al.
Have you considered wood? If that seems impractical, aluminum is easy to work with home shop hand tools.

Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphics Y, Z, CH
There are two hieroglyphs for the letter "Y". They represent the different sounds of the letter.

Inherit The Wind
Presented by Marblehead Little Theatre at Marblehead Little Theatre
January 25 - February 3, 2013
Tickets are now on sale for Marblehead Little Theatre's production of Inherit The Wind. The production runs January 25-February 3rd. Inherit the Wind is being produced by Ted Merritt and Steve Black, with direction by Chris Martel, costume design by Elvira Schoenthol, production design by Evan DelGaudio, and sound design by Nathan Dykes.
Inherit the Wind is a classic play written in the 1950s, but is as relevant today to the country as the trial itself was in 1925. A recent Gallup poll showed that 46% of Americans believe that God created humans in their present form, and state legislatures still tinker with what theories of life's creation should be taught in school. This play vividly and dramatically frames the issues, mixing both character portrayals of a brave teacher living among plain religious town folk with larger than life figures based on Clarence Darrow and William Jennings Bryan battling in a courtroom over free speech, science, and the forces of creationism.
Tickets are $23 for adults with a special $15 for student rate for matinees only and are available online at www.MLTlive.org or at the Spirit of 76 Bookstore. For more information about the show or the theatre, please visit the website at www.MLTlive.org.

Ariana Grande insists reported nude pictures of her are fake - because her bottom is "a lot cuter" in real life.
The 'Problem' hitmaker took to her Twitter account this morning (02.09.14) to address rumors that a selection of naked photographs leaked onto the internet are of her and she laughed off the claims by joking she is "praying for" anyone who thought they were her.
The 21-year-old singer wrote: "to every1 going on about my "nudes" & my "m&g prices" neither are real! my lil ass is a lot cuter than that lmao & tour details r comin soon
"but forreal tho whoever thought those were actually me...... love u but I'm praying for u (sic)"
The brunette star - who is currently dating 26-year-old rapper Big Sean - is not the only one to deny the leaked nudes are real, with fellow Nickelodeon star Victoria Justice also claiming that photos of her are fake.
The refutation comes days after an unidentified hacker stole explicit images and videos of more than 100 celebrities from Apple's iCloud service and published some to photo-sharing website 4chan.
Other celebrities affected by the scandal include Jennifer Lawrence and Kate Upton, who have confirmed the images of them are real, but are warning that they will take legal action against anyone who publishes them.
Yesterday (01.09.14), the FBI confirmed in a statement that an investigation to find the hackers responsible for the material has begun.
The statement read: "The FBI is aware of the allegations concerning computer intrusions and the unlawful release of material involving high profile individuals, and is addressing the matter. Any further comment would be inappropriate at this time."

The Doors were probably best known for flamboyant front man Jim Morrison's antics. Musically, however, it was the sinewy lines contributed by keyboard player Ray Manzarek that made the Doors' songs remained in the rock music standard playbooks. The rollicking keyboard of "People Are Strange;" the eerie funeral dirge in "The End," among others insures that these songs continue to flow from speakers to this day. Manzarek has lost his long battle with bile duct cancer. He was 74.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - The Doors formed in 1965 after Manzarek happened to meet Morrison on California's Venice Beach, where Morrison was living - literally, on the beach. From such humble beginnings, the legendary L.A. band went on to sell 100 million albums worldwide, establishing five multiplatinum discs in the U.S.
Morrison's wet and reckless lifestyle ended in 1971, at the classic age of 27, for many other rock music legends such as Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin. Manzarek carried on The Doors' legacy, continuing to work as a musician, producer and an author.
"I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of my friend and band mate Ray Manzarek today," Doors guitarist Robby Krieger says. "I'm just glad to have been able to have played Doors songs with him for the last decade. Ray was a huge part of my life and I will always miss him."
The Doors famously pushed buttons and crossed boundaries throughout the drug-drenched Sixties. Among many other shenanigans, the Doors famously defied the producers of
"The Ed Sullivan Show" by refusing to delete the drug reference "higher" when they performed "Light My Fire" on his show in 1969. A show producer approached them in the dressing room shortly before they were to go on.
"'Yes, sir,' we told him," he recalls. "'Whatever you say, sir. We'll change.' (The producer) looked at Jim and said, 'You're the poet. Think of something else -- 'wire,' 'flyer.'" Then the Doors went out and did the song exactly as they always did. The enraged Sullivan refused to shake their hands.
Always in the moment, Manzarek went on to produce the Los Angeles punk band X in the 1980s. Bassist John Doe said the band learned a lot from him.
"To have someone like Ray -- like rock 'n' roll royalty -- embrace what we do, it was great for our confidence," Doe told CNN in a 2004 interview. "In the studio, he knew what to try to do. He went for performance. He was smart enough to realize that the band had the arrangements all worked out."
Manzarek is survived by his brothers Rick and James, his wife Dorothy, his son Pablo, and three grandchildren.

The seemingly endless patent suit between Apple and Samsung over who copied whose products has reached an end, with a California state court awarding the iPhone maker $119.6 million (€86.22 million) in damages and an acknowledgement that Korea's copycat "willfully" copied Apple designs.
Judge Lucy Koh agreed that Samsung infringed on various Apple patents, including the iconic gesture-based unlock screen feature (Slide to Unlock), autocorrect technology, and a "data detectors" invention that turns typed text into links that support actions, among others.
The decision to award the Cupertino giant just $119.6 million (€86.22 million) instead of the $2.2 billion (€1.58 billion) was nonetheless applauded by Apple.
In a statement provided to Re/code, a company spokesperson said, "We are grateful to the jury and the court for their service. Today's ruling reinforces what courts around the world have already found: that Samsung willfully stole our ideas and copied our products. We are fighting to defend the hard work that goes into beloved products like the iPhone, which our employees devote their lives to designing and delivering for our customers."
The key takeaway from the jury's findings is not how much Samsung copied Apple, or the money Apple received as compensation, but rather that Samsung was found guilty of "willful" copying, which will perpetuate the Korean company's copycat image in the eyes of the public.
The court also found that Apple infringed on a couple of Samsung patents too, though not willfully, and forced the iPhone maker to pay the Korean company $158,400 (€114,195) in damages.
The final amount of compensation owed by Samsung to Apple has yet to be determined, as Apple's legal team found that damages from one infringing product had not been added to the court documents.
Samsung has not commented on the outcome of the suit and neither has Google. The search giant is known to have backed the Korean electronics maker agreeing to pay for some of its court expenses.
In a previous (similar) case against Samsung, Apple was awarded almost $1 billion (€720,929,000) in damages.
While some may consider this a small win for Tim Cook & Co., it is actually a resounding success that will ensure far less copying attempts from other competitors in the electronics industry.
Nevertheless, with the patent awarding system itself requiring adjustments, this will not be the last time Apple meets another giant tech company in court. With its iWatch and iTV products on the way, the Cupertino giant is already moving towards new competition grounds with Samsung (with its Galaxy Gear smart-watch) and Google (with its Glass product).

The stars came out in droves to this year's Tony Awards, but it was the Broadway babies who took home most of the statuettes.
A trio of teenagers from Billy Elliot bested American Idol runner-up Constantine Maroulis and several Great White Way regulars for Best Lead Actor in a Musical.
In fact, their show nearly swept the entire ceremony, winning 10 awards.
Neil Patrick Harris hosted the swiftly moving event. And what he didn't bring to the bombshell of an opening number, he made up for with his jaw-dropping closer in which he recapped the winners, busted their chops and slipped in some wonderfully lewd jokes for good measure.
But that wasn't the only razzle dazzle at the song-and-dance awards...
The show opening, the biggest ever for the Tonys, featured some impressive collaborations, including Dolly Parton with the 9 to 5 cast, Elton and the Billys, Liza Minnelli and Poison with the cast of Rock of Ages!
"For us, it's really killer," Poison frontman Bret Michaels told NY1 on the red carpet. "It's the most awesome yet strangest thing we've ever done." Also (almost) killer: Michaels suffered a blow to the face from a piece of scenery, but was said to be all right.
God of Carnage scored three wins, including Best Play and Lead Actress in a Play for Marcia Gay Harden. Fellow stars Jeff Daniels and James Gandolfini were topped by Exit the King's Geoffrey Rush.
When Minnelli beat Will Ferrell for Best Special Theatrical event, she referred to the funnyman as "her lovely man."
"I'm crazy about Will Ferrell," she told us in the press room. "He's so charming and so talented. I watch his films all the time. They've taken me all over the world."
The Hair hippies, who scored Best Musical Revival, gave a rousing performance of their title song and managed to mingle with the stars in the process. Nominees Will Swenson and Gavin Creel shook it on, above or with Gandolfini, Anne Hathaway, Edie Falco and Frank Langella.
A few other stage-centric moments are sure to have viewers talking.
People got hurt. Besides Michaels getting bonked in the opener, Sir Elton tripped off the stage in the press room.
Jeremy Piven only had one sushi-related diss, but at least it was a good one. Thanks for that, NPH.
Lansbury, who won for Best Featured Actress in a Play for Blithe Spirit, felt "about two feet off the ground" upon winning her award, she told the press room just before joking that the fifth Tony statuette would finally fill a void on her shelf.
Lastly, and appropriately, Bebe Neuwirth introduced the In Memoriam montage, led with former Tony winner Natasha Richardson.
Here's the list of winners:

What is a Database and why do I need to know about them for small business web hosting?
A database is a collection of information. Data is information. It can be names, addresses, locations of other information such as URLs. This website uses a database to store all the information you see, including the links.
A database management system is a piece of software that allows you to communicate with the database. The database is just the information stored in a computer in some structured file or files.
The database management system used on this website is MySQL. Other examples of database management systems are PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL server, Microsoft Access, Oracle, IBM DB2 and SQLite.
A database is useless without a database management system. It is just information sitting in files on your computer. A book is useless if you can't read it.
Why is it important to know about databases for a small business website?
Choosing the web hosting service provider for your small business involves evaluating what needs you have. For instance, you will need to be sure that you have MySQL if you will be using WordPress. There are many web hosts that provide multiple options for database management systems.
Before you decide which web hosting company to go with you really need to sit down and decide what you plan on using the web host for. Will you be using it for a blog? Will you be using it as a way to advertise online specials? Will your website be your only form of business such as selling eBooks?
BlueHost provides MySQL and PostgreSQL. BlueHost is the web hosting company that I use to host this website and others. I chose BlueHost because they offer more options for content management systems than I can ever need. This means I can grow as my needs grow.
I can begin with something fast and simple like WordPress and progress up to a very complex website using Drupal. There are applications for education websites such as Moodle or help centers using Help Center Live. They even offer website builders such as Weebly or eCommerce applications such as OpenCart.
BlueHost is the best small business web host available today.
For a limited time you can sign up for only $4.95 per month!! See for yourself.

BUFFALO, NY - Many local first responders that went downstate to help that area recover from the destruction Hurricane Sandy brought have returned.
The pictures from Hurricane Sandy still leave us breathless.
For some emergency responders who worked 16-hour days while assisting storm victims in battered areas say they'll never forget some experiences.
We spoke to several members from Erie County Emergency Services, which deployed six people.
"Where family members that weren't affected brought in dinner for the family members that were there and staying there so you saw people try to connect with their families in a time of crisis," said Tracy Fricano-Chalmers, a program director at Erie County's Department of Health.
Scott Patronik of the Erie County's Sheriff's Office says, "you'd meet people, you'd say goodbye to people, but it was difficult saying goodbye."
Jose Latalladi, who works for Buffalo's Red Cross returned last week from the hard hit areas of Long Island. The Red Cross continues to train new volunteers to be sent to help people who have lost everything there.
"Some of the most vivid things that I saw were people walking in with wet clothing, that they literally had nothing, from the time the storm hit, they had two hours to get their entire lives out of their house," he said.
Also returning after a two week deployment are about 90 members of the 107th Airlift Wing, which deployed out of the Niagara Falls Air Reserve Station. The unit helped evacuate patients from Bellevue Hospital, which lost power and was flooded. It also removed debris at different locations in and around New York City.
Controversy now swirls around Long Island Power Authority, and how it prepared for and responded to the storm.
Officials from Western New York say they think all companies have worked hard to restore power.
"I saw plenty of crews, we saw crews from California, we saw crews from Texas, they're bringing in resources, however there's more of a dynamic than saying the power is not back on," said Dan Neaverth, commissioner of Erie County Emergency Services.
Still, hundreds remain in the dark. Even though some crews are starting to come back home. They all know there's a possibility they could be deployed again.
The airlift wing still has about seven people deployed. The National Guard says that it will have a presence in battered areas for months.
There were some crews also sent from Livingston, Cattaraugus, Genesee and Monroe counties. Some still remain there.
