Seahawks vs. Redskins 2013 NFL Playoff Preview
Seahawks at Redskins
(11-5) #5 seed Seattle Seahawks at #4 seed Washington Redskins (10-6)
The Seahawks are 3-5 on the road, while the Redskins are 5-3 at home.
Both teams made the playoffs by going 7-1 in the second half of their season. These are two mega-hot teams going at it in Washington on Sunday.
Seattle opened the season by scoring less than 20 points in five of their first seven games. The offense since then has caught fire as they have averaged 30 points per game over their last nine games, and during their current five game winning streak they are averaging a whopping 39 points per game.
The Redskins are averaging 30 points per game during their current seven game winning streak.
These two teams are each very good for turnover ratio. The Seahawks are at +13, and the Redskins are at +17.
Both teams are in the top-11 for getting into the red-zone.
This slideshow article will take a look at both teams passing games (Wash 20th overall for passing, Sea 27th overall) and also look at both teams rushing attacks (these two teams are both in the top-3 for rushing attacks).
These are two of the most penalized teams in the NFL, but the Redskins have been significantly better in this area lately.
This game will feature the 2012 NFL Draft's #2 overall pick (Robert Griffin III) #15 overall (Bruce Irvin) #75 overall (Russell Wilson) and #173 overall (Alfred Morris).
Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan has a 8-5 playoff record, but his last playoff win was way back in 2005. His counterpart Pete Carroll last won a playoff game in 2010, and his overall playoff record is just 2-3.
Seattle Passing Game
On the season Russell Wilson tossed just nine touchdowns and eight interceptions on the road, but he has been on fire lately. In his last eight games Wilson has 20 touchdowns (16 passing and four rushing) vs just a pair of interceptions. His hot second half got his quarterback rating all the way up to 100.0 which was #4 in the NFL.
Sidney Rice is dealing with a wonky knee, but I am sure he will play. He and Golden Tate each have seven touchdowns this season, but they have combined for just five on the road.
Both of those guys are a threat on 3rd down, as is Doug Baldwin. The Seahawks convert 3rd downs pretty well, and the Redskins defense is the worst in football at getting off the field on 3rd down. That is a sure #RML area to keep our eyes on as the NFL is all about 3rd down conversion and turnovers.
Speaking of turnovers this Redskins team picked off a whopping 21 passes in 2012 (only two teams had more interceptions, and 21 is the most of any playoff team). The interesting thing about Jim Haslett's crew is the interceptions come from the linebackers. London Fletcher has five (team-high) and Rob Jackson has four.
Another linebacker, Ryan Kerrigan, is their sack leader at 8.5, but only 1.5 of those have come at FedExField. This is a Redskins defense that has earned just 16 sacks at home. Wilson has been sacked just 15 times on the road. Haslett will have to find a way to dial up the pressure vs a suddenly en fuego Wilson on Sunday.
Seattle Rushing Attack
Marshawn Lynch is awesome. 1,590 rushing yards (#3 in the NFL) 68 rushing first downs (fifth most in NFL) and a 5.0 yards per carry average (sixth best in the NFL). Only four players rushed for more than Lynch's 11 touchdowns, but only four of those came on the road.
Lynch eclipsed 100+ rushing yards four times on the road, and he had 90+ yards from scrimmage in seven of his eight road games this season.
The modus operandi of Lynch is he scores points in the first three quarters, and then brings the victory home in the 4th quarter.
Lynch is not the only ground-game threat on this Seahawks team. Wilson is second on the team with 489 rushing yards which is #35 in the NFL, and #3 for quarterbacks. Wilson averages 5.2 yards per carry, and he has 30 rushing first downs.
Overall the Seahawks are ranked as the third best running game in the NFL.
Overall the Redskins are #5 vs the run. Teams attempted to run vs Washington less than any other playoff team. This game promises to be the exact opposite of that as no NFL team ran the football more than Seattle in 2012.
Redskins Passing Game
Robert Griffin III had a wonderful rookie season. His 102.4 quarterback rating was third best in the NFL. He tossed 20 touchdowns vs just five interceptions. At FedExField he had eight touchdowns and just one interception.
The 'Skins passing attack is pretty balanced. Josh Morgan, Leonard Hankerson, Santana Moss, and Pierre Garcon all have between 510-633 receiving yards. Moss leads the club with eight touchdown catches, and the Redskins are a whopping 9-1 when Garcon plays.
Putting together a good passing game vs the Seahawks in Seattle is almost impossible, but this game will be in the nation's capital. Regardless where the game is I would have to think that this Seahawks secondary always has a chance to be effective.
Brandon Browner is back, and he gets paired with fellow starting cornerback Richard Sherman to make a formidable cornerback-duo. Sherman is #2 in the NFL with a whopping eight interceptions.
Sherman and Browner each go 6'3", as does safety Kam Chancellor. Their other safety is Earl Thomas. He is 5'10" and he is awesome (Pro Bowl player the last two seasons). This secondary has size and skill, and are a nightmare to throw against in the red-zone.
Seattle has just 15 sacks on the road, but they are #6 overall vs the pass thanks to that secondary.
A #RML area to watch will be the Seahawks defensive-line led by Chris Clemons vs Trent Williams and the Redskins offensive-line. Clemons leads the Seahawks with 11.5 sacks, and Williams made his first Pro Bowl this season.
Redskins Rushing Attack
The Redskins running attack is the best in the NFL. Amazing to see that it is two rookies leading the way as RG III and Alfred Morris are both in the top-20 for rushing yards, yards per carry, 20+ yard rushes, and rushing touchdowns.
Morris has 12 of his 13 touchdowns in Redskins victories so we see he is a legit contributor to this teams pleasant surprise run to the playoffs.
At FedExField the rookies have gone for 5.2 yards per carry (Morris) and 7.2 (RG III).
Washington averages a whopping 187 rushing yards at home, and they averaged 182 rushing yards per game in their 5-0 December.
An amazing #RML stat is the Redskins have 81 rushing 1st downs at FedExField, which is more rushing 1st downs than 11 teams had in total.
The Redskins rushed for 2,709 yards in 2012, which is the fourth most rushing yards for any team in the 2000's.
Seattle yields a whopping 4.5 yards per carry, but they are #10 overall vs the run. They bend, but they do not break. Seattle allowed just eight rushing touchdowns which is top-5 in the NFL.
Seahawks at Redskins...NFC Playoffs
TOUGH game to call for me. The Seahawks are much better at home than they are on the road, but lately they have been awesome anywhere.
A team that has to rely on their passing game will be eaten by the Seahawks, but the Redskins running game will carry the day and get them the win.
Of all the (really good) rookies in this game I think that Alfred Morris will have a major impact, and I will take the Redskins to win this game which would be their first home playoff victory in the 2000's.

|This article needs additional citations for verification. (March 2015)
Catathrenia is a rapid eye movement sleep parasomnia consisting of end-inspiratory apnea (breath holding) and expiratory groaning during sleep. Catathrenia is distinct from both somniloquy and obstructive sleep apnea. The sound is produced during exhalation as opposed to snoring which occurs during inhalation. It is usually not noticed by the person producing the sound but can be extremely disturbing to sleep partners, although once aware of it, sufferers tend to be awakened by their own groaning as well.[citation needed] Bed partners generally report hearing the person take a deep breath, hold it, then slowly exhale; often with a high-pitched squeak or groaning sound.
Catathrenia typically, sometimes even exclusively, occurs during REM sleep,[citation needed] although it may also occur to a lesser degree during NREM sleep. Often the groaning occurs toward the end of the sleep cycle, within a couple hours of waking.[citation needed] Catathrenia begins with a deep inspiration. The sufferer holds her or his breath against a closed glottis, similar to the Valsalva maneuver. After a period of time and some blood oxygen desaturation, there is an arousal, followed by expiration. Expiration can be slow and accompanied by sound caused by vibration of the vocal cords or a simple rapid exhalation with no sound.
There is debate[citation needed] about whether the cause is physical or neurological, a question that requires further study. While some[who?] speculate about a direct correlation to high stress or the concept that catathrenia is purely psychological, there is only anecdotal evidence of either proposed cause.
Catathrenia has been defined as a parasomnia in the International Classification of Sleep Disorders Diagnostic and Coding Manual (ICSD-2), but there is debate[citation needed] about its classification.
There are a few other similarities[citation needed]amongst catathrenia sufferers that have not yet been studied properly:
- Many took part in sports activities during teens and twenties which required breath-holding. They find a certain level of comfort in breath-holding, and often do it while awake.[citation needed]
- Sufferers themselves do not feel like they are experiencing a sleep apnea;[citation needed] the breath-holding appears to be controlled though the unconscious. Oxygen desaturation during a catathrenia episode is usually negligible.
Because catathrenia is not considered life-threatening, there has been very little research done in the medical community, and many experts assume that the way to treat catathrenia is to treat the underlying sleep apnea, though there is no conclusive evidence published that catathrenia results from sleep apnea, and sleep studies show that not all sufferers of catathrenia have been diagnosed with sleep apnea.[citation needed]
While doctors tend to dismiss it as an inconvenience,[citation needed] sufferers routinely describe the condition's highly negative effects on their relationships, social lives and sleep quality.
Possible remedies[edit]
Sleeping in a more upright position seems to lessen catathrenia (as well as sleep apnea).[citation needed] Performing regular aerobic exercise, where steady breathing is necessary (running, cycling etc.) may lessen catathrenia. Strength exercise, on the other hand, may worsen catathrenia because of the tendency to hold one's breath while exercising.[citation needed] Yoga and/or meditation focused on steady and regular breathing may lessen catathrenia.[citation needed]

Worn by European royalty and demanding gamekeepers alike. Made of natural latex, which is strong, durable, supple, and waterproof, these hunting and sporting clays boots are crafted by hand as they have been since 1927. Made in France.
Overall: 4.7 / 5 based on 48 reviews
44 of 48 reviewers would recommend this product to a friend.
Great Boots -
By: funonourfarm
Lovely, well made boots. However, They run quite large, even with a sock. I normally wear a size 10. Since they dont come in half sizes I went down to a 9 and it fit perfectly
Pricey, but worth it -
By: navyjg from Ortonville, MI
I love rubber boots but I can't walk comfortably with them all day, and my feet get too warm and sweaty. These boots allow me to walk all day, in wet conditions and my feet feel dry and not tired. The leather interior molds to your feet for ultimate comfort.
I like a snug ankle fit -
By: VirginiaBrits
Clearly nice boots but they do not fit tightly enough around the ankle for me. This causes a lot of heal lift which is uncomfortable.
greatly overrated -
By: djdoc from FL
Fit poor. Loose at ankle and with leather lining much too slippery to stay on in mud. Heavy, stiff, and heel design too high for all day wear. Over all a very disappointing product which was returned as your records should demonstrate.
vive la france -

I have been wearing this pair for three years now, four seasons a year, under appropriate conditions and only when the need called for. Sadly, they still look new. Yesterday morning, early, I pulled them on to shovel some deep drifts of powder that had arrived unexpectedly in the night, and carry in some firewood, but they have been equally serviceable in the warmer months, as well. My recommendations: use the spray all over the boot, including the zipper (i bought a larger canister while at Sandanona); and pair with the Invincible Boot Sock all year around. Bonne chasse!
Outstanding Boots -
By: SDRich from Massachusetts
I've used them in the rain/snow and they have been great! Easy on and off, also the leather lining keeps my feet from getting a clammy, as promised. Had a hard time justifying the price, but they are a quality boot and I'm sure I'll keep these for many years to come.
not for work -
By: Proft from Dorset, VT
Right a great boot especially the full zipper. once the lather gets damp at all it is very tacky and hard to either get your foot in or out. I have had about 4 pairs of these boots and right on two years straps and snaps start to break, soles start to tear away from the boot, and now the zipper is broken after 26 months of ownership. this is not a light work boot, but more like a "prance around the farm or town boot" I wear my boots all day doing moderate farm work and I think all the components of this boot wear awfully easily.
Response from: Orvis Customer Service
Posted: 1/5/2015 3:16:00 PM
The Chasseur is not designed as a farm work boot. The acid in animal waste (manure) accelerates the oxidation of natural rubber and will degrade the boots faster than usual, particularly poultry waste which is very high in uric acid. The Chasseur is designed as a field and hunting boot and under normal and even hard field use has proven to last for years and years. Most Orvis employees working at Sandanona wear these boots daily and put much more than normal wear on them. They have proven time and again to last for many years. We recommend that this customer invest in less expensive rubber work boots for working in and around the farm and save the Chasseurs for hunting or foul-weather outings where dry comfortable feet are imperative.
Best Men's Boot for the Nature Lover! -
By: MariettesBackToBasics from Dublin, GA
On purpose I have waited longer so I can judge these Le Chameau fairly after almost one year. Usually I wear a size 10½ but I got these in a size 11. Their fit is very comfortable, even with socks. If you Google: {My Hand Knitted Irish Aran Men's Vest} you will find more information with photos where I wear them. Great for outdoor life! Highly recommended and the good thing is that these high quality boots will last a lifetime!
Fantastic performance -
By: DDorrell71 from Milwaukee, WI
Certainly the best pair of boots I have purchased. Very comfortable, warm and good movement. Worth the money!
Practical Hunting Boot -
By: Gundalow from Seacoast area of NH
Boots are easy to put on/takeoff. Although they fit somewhat more loosely than my other size 13 boots, they are comfortable for walking for several hours. The extra room will be appropriate when I wear heavier socks later this Fall. I like the height of these boots as I occasionally underestimate the depth of water/muck.
|Le Chameau Boots
by Paul Fersen Orvis writer and Alaska guide
Every once in a while we stumble across a piece of outdoor gear that performs beyond all our expectations and becomes an indispensable part of our lives. We can't imagine being without it and upon its eventual demise, due to our now ingrained dependence, we replace it within the day. It's become that important.
In this case it's a boot—the Le Chameau Chasseur. Built in France since 1927, each pair is handmade by a single boot maker from start to finish and is easily the finest rubber Wellington-type boot made. They are standard issue for estate shooting in Europe and Great Britain, and there is good reason. These people can afford the finest the world has to offer and they choose Le Chameau.
I bought my first pair 10 years ago. I'd worn rubber boots all my life in some form or another for fishing, hunting, farming and country living in general. I'd seen friends wearing Chameaus, but couldn't grasp paying the premium price for something I thought I'd wear out as fast as I went through regular rubber boots. I'd generally go through a pair every couple of years, but I was encouraged by a hunting companion to at least try on a pair. He'd had the same pair for more than 15 years. Most rubber boots are a chore to get on and off. I was struck by the ease of sliding my foot into the glove leather lining, not something you find in normal Wellingtons. The comfort was actually a bit startling and the normal instantaneous build up of rubber boot heat and sweat never occurred. I bought them and I've not regretted it since.
For eight years I wore those boots almost daily—hunting, fishing, even hiking in sloppy weather. They are that comfortable and the fit and support are that good. Unlike most rubber boots the sole is solid and the fit around the foot and ankle is as good as a leather boot. I wore them as boat boots in foul weather off the coast of Cape Cod; quail hunting, and turkey hunting almost every day of the season. I've stood calf deep in water for hours and remained perfectly dry, which is remarkable given the full-zip design. I wore them to work in snow, and tailgating at my son's football and lacrosse games in torrential rains.
I wore them as camp boots and work boots in Alaska, hunted ptarmigan across miles of tundra. In every case the comfort of my feet, which when bad can ruin any outdoor experience, was taken for granted. My feet were always warm, dry and the traditional rubber boot clamminess non-existent even in warmer weather. Somehow the leather lining seems to regulate the temperature and the resulting comfort is remarkable. I can't explain it. I just enjoy it.
At 6'5" and 270 lbs. I put a lot of stress on boots, far more than most. I wore these boots almost exclusively for eight years and living and working in Vermont, subjected them to conditions and abuse far beyond what would be considered remotely normal for an estate-style hunting boot. I think it's safe to say that under normal conditions these boots would last for decades. They finally sprung a slight leak, when I was turkey hunting one morning crossing a creek and I felt the water seep in. I couldn't bear to be without them, so that afternoon, I went out and bought pair number two, which I wore hunting the next morning. The first pair while no longer technically waterproof, are still as comfortable as ever and they now serve as work boots for cutting wood chores and I expect that with two pair, they might just last me the rest of my life.
When my son turned 21, I bought him a pair of Chameaus as a birthday present. I'm not sure there is a better testimonial to a boot than that. It is a memorable moment for a father and son and I wanted him to have something that I knew personally was the best of its kind and would last him for years. Seems a bit strange that a boot could fill that role, but to an outdoorsman, a great boot is a necessity and you never realize to what extent it can affect you.

Evolutionary and functional insights into Leishmania META1: evidence for lateral gene transfer and a role for META1 in secretion

Leishmania META1 has for long been a candidate molecule for involvement in virulence: META1 transcript and protein are up-regulated in metacyclic Leishmania. Yet, how META1 contributes to virulence remains unclear. We sought insights into the possible functions of META1 by studying its evolutionary origins.
Using multiple criteria including sequence similarity, nucleotide composition, phylogenetic analysis and selection pressure on gene sequence, we present evidence that META1 originated in trypanosomatids as a result of a lateral gene transfer of a bacterial heat-inducible protein, HslJ. Furthermore, within the Leishmania genome, META1 sequence is under negative selection pressure against change/substitution. Using homology modeling of Leishmania META1 based on solved NMR structure of HslJ, we show that META1 and HslJ share a similar structural fold. The best hit for other proteins with similar fold is MxiM, a protein involved in the type III secretion system in Shigella. The striking structural similarity shared by META1, HslJ and MxiM suggests a possibility of shared functions. Upon structural superposition with MxiM, we have observed a putative hydrophobic cavity in META1. Mutagenesis of select hydrophobic residues in this cavity affects the secretion of the secreted acid phosphatase (SAP), indicating META1's involvement in secretory processes in Leishmania.
Overall, this work uses an evolutionary biology approach, 3D-modeling and site-directed mutagenesis to arrive at new insights into functions of Leishmania META1.

Review for Through The Roof Ministries, Akron, OH, USA
I have helped by picking up wheelchairs that people donate. Through the Roof accepts all kinds of equipment and medical supplies. They fix them and have a loaner program and also send these to other countries. The people that donate often need encouragement and I can help in this way. I am thankful I have a truck and can volunteer my time now that I am retired.

Interested in hearing how you are getting along with bellows repair.
Here are a couple of things I've heard... The Aquaseal stuff works.
There is also material called Gutta Resist. A natural latex product used in fabric crafts. www.dharmatrading.com has it.
For large repairs I'd been searching for a strong, opaque and extremely flexible fabric. A friend put me onto Gore-Tex patch kits. You can use Aquaseal to glue the Gore-Tex to the inside of the bellows, and it will remain flexible.

Introduction / History
The Japanese in Spain are mainly a mixture of managers of companies, students and those of Japanese descent. There are also Japanese who have come to Spain from the Spanish speaking Americas.
Japanese people first came to Spain in the early seventeenth century. The first Japanese business in Spain was in the late 1960s and since then Japanese businesses have come to the Catalonia region of Spain. Later Japanese from South and Central America came to Spain to get away from the troubles. During this time Japanese business people and students came to Spain. Most Japanese live in Barcelona and a few in other parts of Catalonia. There are also some living in the capital Madrid.
There is an Association of Japanese companies in Barcelona. Also in Barcelona there are other Japanese associations and they have a golf club. Two Japanese International Schools are in Spain, one in Madrid and one in Barcelona where there is also a Japanese library. They have their own restaurants in Spain too.
The Japanese here speak Japanese and Spanish. They are usually followers of Buddhism or Shintoism. Many are now secular.
Prayer Points
* Pray that God will find ways of getting the Japanese to seek the gospel.
* Pray against too much fondness for materialism among the Japanese.

So, I decided to go check what my GPA was for this last term. Will low and behold the class I thought I had a B in I got an A. So that makes 3 A's which equals to a perfect 4.0 GPA. First term I got a perfect 4.0.
Now I need to look into the Phai Theta Capa scholarship and any others that my grades qualify me for. I signed up to join the local club a while ago. Need to get in contact with them again. I have a brochure about the info for scholarships and what not. I'm just happy that I'm making good grades.
I bet I get another letter in the mail recognizing my hard work and accomplishments as a student. Which would be awesome. I already have a collection of them. They remind me to keep at it and not give up.
So for the new year I know I'm great on School. I freaking rock it and should keep everything pretty much the same as far as school is concerned. But, I need to start finalizing my Weight loss goals for the new year. Especially since I'm getting married in Oct and should start getting serious about my dress in Aug. That's leaves me no time to slack off on exercise and eating right.
I want a dress like this. And yes this is my color theme for the wedding. Plus, some steam punk mixed in. I can't wait to start getting fitted for my wedding. It's a long time dream come to life. Although I didn't dream about weddings as much as some girls. I never really got into dating till about 17. To much of a Tom Boy to care about girly things.
This week I'm going to be reading up on effective goal setting. I also am going to switch to doing the pre planned meals on the food tracker. I'm getting familiar with the settings and how to change a meal if there or ingredients I don't like, don't have, or can't afford. I also am going to follow the suggested exercise setup. Strength training and all.
I've also been trying to think of ways to use the gym. I can use the gym at school if I find the time. Which shouldn't be to hard. Some days I already have to get a taxi home. So maybe I should make one of my goals exercising at the gym each day I take a taxi home for at least 30 mins or an hour.
Look at that. I made a goal already. What a clever goal. It makes tons of sense. I know I'll be needing to use the tutoring lab a lot this term, and I have one day each week I have to take a taxi home. So that's an awesome idea. Actually I think I have three listed already. Ya i do. Wow making the New Year Resolution Goals is easier then I thought.
1) use pre planned meals
2) use pre planned exercise
3) Workout at the school gym each day I taxi home from school for at least 30 mins to an hour.

With all the talk these days over Ravenswood, let's not forget: Pretty Little Liars is actually coming back for a new season itself as well!
Fresh episodes will start airing June 11 on ABC Family.
And in anticipation of the return of Aria, Emily, Hanna, Spencer and company, the network has released a new promotional photo of the core four. Does it reveal anything about events to come on Season 4?
Not exactly… although aren't those the steps to the house where Emily spotted Jenna, Melissa and Shana on the Pretty Little Liars Season 3 finale?

Gazprom: Extra sanctions could hit hardComment on this story
Moscow - Russia's top natural gas producer Gazprom said on Tuesday that any expansion of the Western-imposed sanctions over Moscow's actions in Ukraine could lead to adverse consequences for its business and shares.
Gazprom and its managers have not been sanctioned by the United States or Europe over Russia's involvement in Ukraine.
The company, which meets 30 percent of Europe's gas demand, also said in its financial report that a pricing disagreement with Kiev could potentially lead to a disruption of its gas exports to Europe through pipelines crossing Ukraine. - Reuters

Shanieka Thomas won her third NCAA title in the triple jump, while Allison Reaser finished second in the heptathlon to lead San Diego State at the NCAA outdoor track and field championships Friday in Eugene, Ore.
Thomas recorded a best mark of 45 feet, 111/4 inches to capture the title. She also won the triple jump at the 2014 indoor meet and 2013 outdoor meet, and was runner-up in the previous two championships (2013 indoor, 2012 outdoor).
It is the seventh individual national title for the Aztecs. An SDSU athlete has won an individual title at four of the last five NCAA championships (the three straight for Thomas and Whitney Ashley in the discus at the 2012 outdoor meet).
Reaser won the 800 meters, the heptathlon's final event, to finish second with 5,836 points. The total broke her own Mountain West and school record and was just 18 points shy of winner Kendell Williams of Georgia.
With 13 of the 21 events completed, San Diego State is in a four-way tie for seventh place with 18 points. Oregon leads the meet with 43 points.
The Chiefs released Brandon Flowers after three weeks of voluntary workouts in which the former starter was conspicuously absent. Flowers was due to make $5.25 million this season, and he carried a salary cap number of $10.5 million that made him difficult to keep.
• Jadeveon Clowney, the No. 1 overall pick in the draft by the Texans, is recovering from sports hernia surgery, coach Bill O'Brien said.
• Giants linebacker Jon Beason has broken a bone in his right foot and is expected to miss most of training camp, the team announced.
• The family of Boston Bruins owner Jeremy Jacobs is proposing to build a stadium to help secure the Bills' long-term future in the region, two people involved in discussions told The Associated Press.
• The Lions cut cornerback Chris Houston one year into his $25 million, five-year contract. Houston, who had foot surgery, was limited to 12 games last season because of toe and foot injuries.
The Hornets have placed the team's future personnel decisions in the hands of General Manager Rich Cho after Rod Higgins stepped down as the team's president of basketball operations.
• The Timberwolves again hired Sidney Lowe as an assistant coach for the staff being assembled by Flip Saunders.
Sports and courts
Football players at big schools could make several hundred thousand dollars in their college careers if they were paid a portion of the broadcast rights to games similar to what NFL players now get, under a model suggested by a sports economist. Daniel Rascher's testimony came under cross examination in a landmark antitrust trial brought in federal court against the NCAA by former UCLA basketball star Ed O'Bannon and 19 others.
• Former Dodgers owner Frank McCourt testified in a lawsuit filed over a severe beating at Dodger Stadium that he wasn't personally involved in security matters at the venue but did suggest a fan code of conduct. McCourt was only on the witness stand for about an hour in the negligence case filed on behalf of Giants fan Bryan Stow, who suffered brain damage in the beating in a parking lot after the 2011 opening-day game.

There are quite a few Gophers fans out there who made it clear which coach they wanted to replace Tubby Smith even before he was fired Monday, March 25.
It's not Flip Saunders.
During a Feb. 10 loss to Illinois, some fans were chanting from the Williams Arena stands, "Shaka! Shaka! Shaka!"
Virginia Commonwealth's Shaka Smart, one of the hottest young coaches in college basketball after reaching the Final Four in 2011, turned down the Illinois job last year.
Gophers faithful who had grown weary of Smith were enamored with the possibility of Smart reuniting with Norwood Teague, the athletics director who hired him at VCU.
Smart even asked media members last November when the Gophers were playing in the same tournament in the Bahamas, if the people in Minnesota were "taking care of Norwood?"
So there still might be a bit of a love affair there.
But would Smart come to Minnesota? Why would he?
The 35-year-old former Florida assistant under Billy Donovan turned down a reported $2.5 million-a-year offer from the Illini to replace Bruce Weber. Smart's annual salary is currently about $1.36 million.
UCLA, which fired coach Ben Howland, reportedly is going after Smart. You can bet Smart's name will pop up for other potential openings as well this offseason, especially since the Rams were knocked out of the NCAA tournament in the third-round by Michigan.
Booster Steve Erban, who runs the Gophers' charter company, said he was excited to hear rumors about big-time coaches such as Smart and Saunders floating around as possible candidates.
"There are candidates who can make an immediate impact," Erban said. "We've got two great guards returning (in Andre Hollins and Austin Hollins).
Other speculated possible candidates are Marquette's Buzz Williams, Iowa State's Fred Hoiberg, Nebraska's Tim Miles, Villanova's Jay Wright and Wichita State's Greg Marshall.
Williams leaving Marquette might sound like a step down since he's making $2.8 million and has gone to five NCAA tournaments since replacing Tom Crean, who left for Indiana.
But Williams has a relationship with Teague's associate athletic director, Mike Ellis, who helped him get his first head-coaching job at New Orleans in 2006.
Ellis runs a forum for athletic directors to meet the nation's top assistants called Villa 7, which is moving to Minneapolis.
Teague did not mention any candidates at a Monday news conference about Smith's dismissal. But he talked about what the U could offer the next coach on his "short list."
He was asked if the lack of adequate facilities -- no practice facility and an old arena -- would be a deterrent.
"Sure, there's some limitations," Teague said. "We've got a lot of great things, too, with this program. We have a great state to sell. We have an unbelievably passionate fan base and we have an unbelievable university. That's a lot to sell right now."
Smith had trouble developing players. He had trouble selling himself to boosters and top recruits. Of course, there also were issues with motivating players and in-game strategy. His players often struggled to execute offensively in the half court.
But Smith's name still resonated with high school coaches and parents of recruits because of the national championship he won at Kentucky in 1998. He was a coach who strived for strong academics and would not stand for NCAA rules violations.
So Teague probably will have to make a home-run hire to replace Smith. Could it be Smart?
"Some (candidates) are realistic, some are unrealistic, but I have a list in mind," Teague said. "We are going to look for the right fit for the program. Doesn't have to be the candidate that everybody thinks we should get. It's going to be the right fit for our student athletes."

I shoe shop could do it for you. I Don't know how much. You can mark it off with pencil or a dry erase marker.
I recently trimed mine with a dremmel tool and cutting bit. Fairly easy, if you ask me. The hardest part was figuring out how much I wanted to trim. You could try starting off by triming a little until you get a feel for it, as I did.
As ehenz mentioned, it's a fairly easy task. I will be trimming another saddle tomorrow and maybe I can post step by step illustrated instructions on how to go about.
I guess that I can understand doing something to make a bike truly custom, but can someone explain to me the thoughts behind "butchering" their Brooks. These aren't cheap seats so I am jsut curious as to the motivation to take that much of a chance.
My reasoning behind this is while these saddles are the most comfortable for me, I simply don't like the looks of these saddles with all that leather. It's more leather than I need. That's why I butcher them without sacrificing comfort. It's purely aesthetics and nothing more.... My wife thinks they look really cool.Originally Posted by singlespeed

Determine and mark the trim line using vinyl tape. Do this on one side of the saddle only. You'll be using this cut out piece as a template to mark the other side.
Step 2:
Go out to the patio and start trimming using your favourite power cutting tool. I'm using a Dremel tool with a diamond cutting disc. It's easy, fast, and clean.

Step 3:
Use that cut piece as a template and mark the other side of the saddle with a fine marker or whatever and cut.
The removal of the Brooks badge is optional if you don't plan on trimming the rear end. Otherwise, use needle nosed pliers and gently bend and break it off.
Again, use tape to mark the cutting line. Make sure your cut mark is slightly below the metal frame. You're only slicing just a tiny thin piece here. Proceed with cutting... Don't worry about those tiny rivets which used to hold the badge. The cutting disc will cut right thru them.

Oh, by the way, I don't want to be held responsible for any screw ups. Modify your Brooks at your own risk....
With all due respect, I think it looked much better before.
Don't worry about it........my bikes prefer chopped saddles too. As long as my bikes are happy, I'm happy.Originally Posted by Ranger

It's your saddle.
Unclechet likes! Would you mind sending in a finished photo?
Hey thanks dobber, I've been to that site before but never looked at that feature. I think chopped Brooks saddles can look good. Nice how-to fixer.Originally Posted by dobber
This is not finished yet. Final shaping and sanding will take place today. Finished saddle will look much sleeker than this. I left more leather on this chop job compared to my other recently completed antique brown Professional shown in the FixedGearGallery.
Well you do nice work. I'm gonna give it a shot on an old Brooks I've got. I just hope mine comes out somewhere as nice as yours. I've got to go mow a couple of yards now, then hopefully on a ride later. Once again thanks for the thread.
The Fixer
Great job on your Brooks saddles, they look very nice!
I recently cut up an old ADGA leather saddle that I use on my fixie (I don't have the nerve to do it to one of my Brooks!). The results are not pretty (the saddle was very ugly to begin with) but it is so much more comfortable than before. I'm glad I did it. Well, I guess I didn't have anything to lose!
It does look nice, but now it's lost that full Brooks vintage look, which is priceless in my eyes.
I think this one's done....
I think that looks sooo much better trimmed. I have had 3 brooks pro saddles and I had never heard of trimming them until just recently, but it looks slick. Great job, George, I am going to do it.Originally Posted by The Fixer
Good luck trimming..... with enough patience, it's an easy task. My very first trim job was a B17 over a year ago and was surprised how well it turned out. Since then, I've trimmed 2 other B17's, 2 B17 Narrows, 3 Professionals, including this one this weekend, a Swift, and just last week, a sprung Conquest Mtb saddle.
I think I'm crazy. I'm currently obsessed with buying and butchering Brooks saddles. I think I need help. I know this thing will wear out in a few months time and I'll be riding stock, unaltered Brooks saddles again....

CHICAGO -- Illinois education officials took another step Friday toward dramatically overhauling the way principals and teachers are evaluated, proposing new rules requiring that student performance be taken into account when evaluating educators.
CHICAGO -- Illinois education officials took another step Friday toward dramatically overhauling the way principals and teachers are evaluated, proposing new rules requiring that student performance be taken into account when evaluating educators.
The rules proposed by the Illinois State Board of Education now go out for a 45-day public comment period, after which the board will reconsider them for final approval.
Officials say the change is part of a national trend as more states link educator performance evaluations to how students are doing.
"People want to know that students are learning and that there's growth happening," said Linda Tomlinson, assistant superintendent for the board of education.
All Illinois schools are making the change under the Performance Evaluation Reform Act signed by Gov. Pat Quinn in 2010. The legislation was the result of discussions between administrators, teachers, legislators and unions, Tomlinson said.
That discussion was sparked by the high number of teachers that were being rated as "excellent" under the existing evaluation system at the same time schools weren't improving, Tomlinson said.
"If everyone's excellent then we would have no schools that are failing," she said.
About 20 of Illinois' hundreds of school districts already include student performance in evaluations. Since the reform law was passed last year, a Performance Evaluation Advisory Council made up of administrators, teachers and other education officials has been meeting monthly, holding public hearings and administering online surveys to develop the new system.
Tomlinson, who sits on the committee, said coming up with the system— including how best to track student growth, how to assess teachers in subjects like drivers education and how to train administrators — "hasn't been an easy process but it's been a thoughtful process."
There will be three types of student assessment tools to choose from, including tests administered nationally and locally produced tools agreed upon by teachers and evaluators.
While the evaluations won't be used in decisions about pay, they will be a factor in layoffs if they happen. And tenured teachers who receive negative reviews would have to be evaluated more often than usual.
The new system would be used for all principals beginning in September 2012, and phased in for teachers, with all evaluated under the system by September 2016.
District 186 anticipates new evaluations
The Springfield School District has already instituted a new teacher evaluation system that takes into account student performance.
The Illinois State Board of Education on Friday announced changes to the way principals and teachers are evaluated. Student growth will be one way to determine how educators are doing, under the state policy.
The Springfield Education Association, which represents Springfield teachers, supports the state's new system, said union president Dan Ford.
Page 2 of 2 - "They don't have a definitive definition of what student growth is," he said.
Teachers prefer a system that, unlike the national No Child Left Behind program, evaluates teachers based on "how individual students grow," he said.
"We were well aware the state was headed in that direction, and we tried to do things that work in our district, but also won't put us in violation of school code," Ford said.
Eight local schools have implemented the new evaluation system, Ford said. They include Lanphier High School, 1300 N. 11th St.; Southeast High School, 2350 E. Ash St.; Franklin Middle School, 1200 Outer Park Dr.; McClernand Elementary School, 801 N. Sixth St.; Addams Elementary School, 10 Babiak Lane; Fairview Elementary School, 2200 Ridgely Ave.; Marsh Elementary School, 1100 Avon Dr.; and Black Hawk Elementary School, 2500 S. College St.
Eight schools are expected to adopt the new evaluation system next school year, followed by eight more schools the year after that, Ford said. That would put Springfield schools a year ahead of the state's requirements.

The Edmonton Catholic School Board has voted to move ahead on closing four aging schools in east Edmonton.
St. Brendan, St. James and St. Gabriel Elementary Schools and St. Kevin Junior High School are all under capacity and would cost the board $22 million in maintenance costs.
The board wants to close all four buildings and build a single $25 million K to 9 school on the St. Brendan site.
Trustees struggled with the decision they made in front of a room packed with parents.
"People want their kids to go to a small school," said Trustee Patricia Grell. "They don't want these large mega-schools."
Parents at the meeting say that sending students to a single school doesn't make sense.
"I don't think that that is reasonable to expect 21 communities to funnel into one school," said Lana Brenneis.
"Especially when we're either going to have to put our kids on the bus for a long period of time or hundreds of parents are going to be driving into this location."
Tuesday's decision means the board will now move into a formal consultation period where trustees will look at how the closures would affect the community.
Trustees will make a final decision on the fate of the schools on May 20.
Even if they vote for closure, the schools will have to stay open for another two to three years to allow for the construction of the new building.

Stafford action group step up fight on Falmouth Ave housing plan
Posted: March 10, 2014|
A new leafleting campaign is being launched this week by residents battling controversial proposals for housing on a greenfield site in the Weeping Cross area of Stafford.
Members of the Falmouth Action Group are distributing 2,500 leaflets to householders in Weeping Cross, Baswich, Walton-on-the-Hill and Hillcroft Park to build support for their fight to save the open space off Falmouth Avenue.
Action group spokesman Ted Bailey said they were stepping up the campaign ahead of an expected planning application from landowner Staffordshire County Council to turn the site into a housing estate.
The group is seeking a legal ruling to class the land - which is popular with dog walkers and as a play area for children - as a village green. But the Supreme Court is unlikely to hear the case before the end of 2014, and Mr Bailey claimed it would be a "gross waste of public money and council time" to debate any housing plan until the legal status of the land was decided.

"It is likely that only the nearest homes will be officially notified when the planning application goes in, and that means that not even the whole of Falmouth Avenue will get an official letter," he said.
"We are leafleting the whole area because this land is such a popular leisure site, and we are asking everyone to sign our protest petition. We are also urging them to get ready to send in letters of objection as soon as the application goes in to the borough council."

What to Prune Now and Soon
The Gardenist
Pruning is tricky, and it is hard to keep track of when to prune what. I am constantly referencing books myself. The best pruning times generally fall into two categories — early spring/late fall, or right after the plant blooms. Because so many shrubs and trees bloom in the spring, the time line can become particularly blurry during this busy pruning time of the year. Technically, early spring is just about over... so if you haven't done that pruning yet — do it now.

We did a search for other eBooks with a similar title, and found some results for you that may be helpful.
Now in a fully revised and updated edition, this seminal text asks if there is cultural life after the 'clash of civilizations' and global McDonaldization. Internationally award-winning author Jan Nederveen Pieterse argues that what is taking place is the formation of a global mZlange, a culture of hybridization. From this perspective on globalization, conflict may be mitigated and identity preserved, albeit transformed. The book offers a comprehensive treatment of hybridization through a series of innovative conceptual tables that are bolstered by textual analysis and compelling examples from around the world. In a new chapter, the author explores East-West hybridities-the idea that globalization is a process of braiding rather than simply a diffusion from developed to developing countries. This historically deep and geographically wide approach to globalization is essential reading as we face the increasing spread of conflicts bred by cultural misunderstanding.
