Illinois Fighting Illini
CFN Preseason Prediction: 6-6 Final
Record: 5-7Why to get excited: The skill players might
be the best in the conference. Juice Williams has matured into an
efficient passer and a good all-around playmaker, and he has all his key
parts back from receivers Arrelious Benn and Jeff Cumberland to tight
end Michael Hoomanawanui, who'll be a bigger part of the offense. Three
of the four conference road games should be as easy as they come going
to Indiana, Purdue, and Minnesota.
Why to be grouchy: The other Big Ten road
game is at Ohio State. The Illini lose three key veterans off the
offensive line, hurt mostly by the loss of center Ryan McDonald. The
defense that was so good in several different areas last year, but it
loses just enough good starters to hurt. CB Vontae Davis was a
disappointment, but he's a first-round draft pick caliber corner who was
an elite athlete. LB Brit Miller was a tackling machine and a leader for
the front seven, while end Derek Walker was one of the team's leading
pass rushers.
The number one thing to work on is:
Holding up better against the run. The Illini pass rush was the best in
the Big Ten while the front seven was great at getting into the
backfield. How mediocre was the run defense? Illinois led the league in
tackles for loss, and still finished ninth in the conference in run
defense. This is going to be yet another athletic, active defense. Now
it'll have to show it can be tough.
Biggest offensive loss: C Ryan McDonaldBiggest defensive
loss: LB Brit MillerBest returning offensive player: QB
Juice Williams, Sr. Best returning defensive player:
LB Martez Wilson, Jr.
Indiana Hoosiers
CFN Preseason Prediction: 5-7 Final
Record: 3-9Why to get excited: The offense loses RB
Marcus Thigpen, arguably the team's best offensive player last year, but
it gets back everyone else including QB Kellen Lewis. The offensive line
might have struggled last year, but with all five starters returning, it
should be better. For anyone else, the schedule starts out nice with
Eastern Kentucky, Western Michigan, Akron and Michigan.
Why to be grouchy: Is the talent level there
to improve? The Hoosiers have miles to go to be more competitive
compared to last year. The Hoosiers were last in the Big Ten in almost
every meaningful defensive category, struggled offensively, and were
blown out in every FBS game but two. The receiving corps is going to
continue to be an issue.
The number one thing to work on is:
Making Kellen Lewis, Kellen Lewis. When he had James Hardy to throw to
and everything was clicking in 2007, he threw for 3,043 yards and 28
touchdowns while running for 736 yards and nine scores. Last year, a bit
banged up and off the mark after the first three games, he finished with
just 1,131 passing yards and six touchdowns with eight interceptions,
while running for just 167 yards and no touchdowns over the final nine
Biggest offensive loss: RB Marcus ThigpenBiggest defensive
loss: SS Joe KleinsmithBest returning offensive player:
QB Kellen Lewis, Sr. Best returning defensive player:
DE Jammie Kirlew, Sr.
Iowa Hawkeyes
CFN Preseason Prediction: 7-5
Final Record: 9-4Why to get excited: The offensive line that was so strong last year
loses guard Seth Olsen and center Rob Bruggeman, but the tackles are
back along with emerging quarterback Ricky Stanzi and top receivers,
Derrell Johnson-Koulianos. The defense that led the Big Ten in pass
efficiency D, and was 12th in the nation, gets back three
starters while the entire linebacking corps is back.
Why to be grouchy: The schedule and the
stars. Mitch King and Matt Kroul might have been the best defensive
tackle pair in America that no one paid any attention to. They'll be
sorely missed, but not as much as RB Shonn Greene. The Doak Walker
winner might have come from out of nowhere, but Iowa doesn't have
another one quite like him waiting in the wings. And then there's the
schedule. How's this for the Big Ten road schedule? Penn State,
Wisconsin, Michigan State, and Ohio State. Thank you very much. Good
The number one thing to work on is:
Getting more from Ricky Stanzi. It took a little while for Stanzi to
take the starting quarterback job by the horns, but when he did, he was
solid. However, the Iowa offense was all about Greene and the running
game, and while the passing attack was efficient, it wasn't spectacular.
With Greene gone, Stanzi will have more pressure on his shoulders to
make the offense go.
Biggest offensive loss: RB Shonn GreeneBiggest defensive
loss: DT Mitch KingBest returning offensive player: OT
Kyle Calloway, Sr. Best returning defensive player: LB
Pat Angerer, Sr. s
Michigan Wolverines
CFN Preseason Prediction: 7-5 Final
Record: 3-9
Why to get excited: Everyone but QB Steven Threet, who's
transferring, is back on offense. While that might not seem like a
positive considering the woeful, last-in-the-Big-Ten season, for a team
trying to figure out the new coaching staff and the system, having a
year under the belt means there won't be a ton of turnover early on. The
recruiting class wasn't remotely as good as Ohio State's, but it was
good enough to be excited for the near future.
Why to be grouchy: The schedule. While it
doesn't appear to be that bad early on, Western Michigan and Notre Dame
are the only two concerns in the first month, all home games, and then
comes the fun. At Michigan State, at Iowa, Penn State, at Illinois. If
the Wolverines, who aren't going to be Florida, can survive that, and
can get through the eye of the Hurricane, the home date with Purdue, the
reward is going to Wisconsin and getting Ohio State. Defensively,
Michigan loses two key players, TIm Jamison and Terrence Taylor, on the front four, while the secondary
has to replace CB Morgan Trent and SS Brandon Harrison.
The number one thing to work on is:
Running the football. The passing game simply isn't going to shine. It
should be better, depending on the quarterback, but if the Wolverines
have to throw to win, they're sunk. They have to do one thing, do it
very well, and then move on to the next week, and that one thing has to
be the running game. West Virginia's ground game wasn't always
consistent, but it almost always blew up in the second half after a few
adjustments. Michigan's ground game has to be good throughout … and the
fumbles have to stop.
Biggest offensive loss: PK K.C. LopataBiggest defensive
loss: DE Tim JamisonBest returning offensive player:
RB Brandon Minor, Sr. Best returning defensive player: DE Brandon Graham, Sr.
Michigan State Spartans
CFN Preseason Prediction: 7-5 Final
Record: 9-4Why to get excited: There's no Ohio State on the schedule and the
road games are at Notre Dame, Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota and Purdue.
That's easier than it looks on paper. The defense might not have been a
rock last year, but it should be loaded with LB Greg Jones and DE Trevor
Anderson leading a good front seven. The receivers that were so mediocre
last season should be better with a year of experience under its belt,
and with everyone returning. Oh yeah, and Michigan still stinks. It'll
be a stunner of MSU isn't better than its arch-rival again.
Why to be grouchy: Keith Nichol, the
one-time super-recruit should be a good quarterback in time, but he
might need a little while. Kirk Cousins will probably be the option on
day one, and he won't have Javon Ringer to fall back on. While the
defense should be stronger, it does lose a few key players in DT Justin
Kershaw, SS Otis Wiley, and DE Brandon Long. The offense loses
All-Big Ten linemen Roland Martin and Jesse Miller.
The number one thing to work on is:
Getting the receivers involved. Mark Dell had the look of MSU's next
superstar receiver in the season opener against Cal, catching nine
passes for 202 yards and a touchdown, but he didn't do much the rest of
the way. Neither did anyone else. The offense revolved around Javon
Ringer and the running game, and now there needs to be more balance and
more pop to the passing attack. The receivers have experience, and now
they need to produce.
Biggest offensive loss: RB Javon RingerBiggest defensive
loss: SS Otis WileyBest returning offensive player: C
Joel Nitchman, Sr.Best returning defensive player: LB
Greg Jones, Jr.
Minnesota Golden Gophers
CFN Preseason Prediction: 6-6 Final
Record: 7-6
Why to get excited: Everyone is back. The new TCF Bank Stadium will
get an experienced team to open it up. Oh sure, TE Jack Simmons, DE
Willie VanDeSteeg, and LB Deon Hightower were all major producers, but
they're the only ones missing from a team that started out the year so
hot. Fine, so the kickers are gone, too, but everyone else is back
including QB Adam Weber, WR Eric Decker, and eight other starters on
offense. Nine starters return on defense.
Why to be grouchy: In Big Ten play,
Minnesota has to go on the road to face Northwestern, Penn State, Ohio
State, and Iowa. While missing Michigan would normally be a plus, that's
not necessarily the case this year. The Gophers also miss Indiana,
likely the league's worst team. Offensive
coordinator Mike Dunbar is gone, but that's not a killer. Losing
defensive coordinator Ted Roof to Auburn, is.
The number one thing to work on is:
Getting the running game back on track. There was a time when Minnesota
had one of the nation's most feared ground attacks. But injuries, a
change in offense, and the lack of a steady back meant a last place Big
Ten finish in rushing offense. While Weber and the passing game will be
fine, there's a hard ceiling on what the team can do without an improved
ground game.
Biggest offensive loss: TE Jack SimmonsBiggest defensive
loss: DE Willie VanDeSteegBest returning offensive player:
WR Eric Decker, Sr.
Best returning defensive player:
S Tramaine Brock, Sr.
Northwestern Wildcats
CFN Preseason Prediction: 6-6 Final
Record: 9-4Why to get excited: The offensive line was
second in the Big Ten in sacks allowed and did a decent job for the
ground game. That was with three redshirt freshmen starting, and now
they're matured to go along with senior right tackle Desmond Taylor. The
defense gets back eight starters after allowing just 341 yards and 20
points per game. Schedule-wise, starting out with Miami University,
Towson, at Syracuse, Minnesota, at Purdue, and Eastern Michigan is nice.
A home game against Indiana should also be a win, while missing Ohio
State is a gift.
Why to be grouchy: Is Corey Wootton ready?
Apparently he's on track to come back from the knee injury suffered in
the Alamo Bowl, and the line will need him with DT John Gill and end
Kevin Mims gone. There are veterans back for the offensive backfield,
but Mike Kafka has to prove he can do more than just run and a steady
running back has to emerge to replace Tyrell Sutton. Top receivers Ross
Lane and Rasheed Ward are gone.
The number one thing to work on is:
The passing game. Kafka came in to replace an injured C.J. Bacher and
ran for 217 yards in the win over Minnesota and ran for 83 yards against
Ohio State. While he completed 32-of-46 passes in his limited time, he
threw three interceptions to go along with the two touchdown passes he
tossed against the Gophers. With new starters in at receiver, and
without Sutton to rely on to carry the offense, the Wildcats need a big
off-season from Kafka.
Biggest offensive loss:
QB C.J. BacherBiggest defensive loss: DT John Gill
Best returning offensive player: OT Al Netter, Soph.Best
returning defensive player: DE Corey Wootton, Sr.
Ohio State Buckeyes
CFN Preseason Prediction: 12-0 Final Record: 10-3Why to get excited: If you're going to play
USC, especially this year, do it early. While the Buckeyes have some
reloading to do, USC has to do more work and has to be ready for the
date in Columbus on September 12th. If OSU can somehow pull
that one off, it should be smooth sailing in a weak Big Ten until early
November with a trip to Penn State. By then, the defense, that returns
seven starters, should be solid, while Terrelle Pryor and the offense
should be good enough to win with.
Why to be grouchy: James Laurinaitis,
Malcolm Jenkins, Alex Boone, Beanie Wells, Marcus Freeman, Brian
Hartline, Donald Washington, Brian Robiskie, Rory Nichol and Steve
Rehring. Those ten players are likely to be drafted, and there's a
chance punter A.J. Trapasso and kicker Ryan Pretorius will end up
pushing for an NFL job in someone's camp. Ohio State might reload, but
that's a lot of next-level talent to replace right away.
The number one thing to work on is:
Opening up the passing game. Pryor was kept under wraps with the passing
game, much to the chagrin of NFL-caliber receivers Brian Robiskie and
Brian Hartline. Now, with Beanie Wells gone, all eyes will be on Pryor
to carry the load of the offense. If he and the attack are as
one-dimensional as last year, there will be major problems. He has to be
able to open things up early on.
Biggest offensive loss:
RB Beanie WellsBiggest defensive loss: LB James
LaurinaitisBest returning offensive player: QB Terrelle
Pryor, Soph.Best returning defensive player: SS Kurt
Coleman, Sr.
Penn State Nittany Lions
CFN Preseason Prediction: 8-4 Final Record: 11-2Why to get excited: It's a four game
schedule, and the one big one is at home. Penn State has to worry about
trips to Illinois and Michigan State, while Iowa and Ohio State have to
come to Happy Valley. Win three of the four, with one of the wins coming
against the Buckeyes, and it's off to Pasadena for a second year in a
row. Sean Lee comes back from his knee injury to join Josh Hull and
Navorro Bowman, forming one of the nation's best linebacking corps,
while the offensive backfield is loaded with Clark and running backs
Evan Royster and Stephfon Green returning.
Why to be grouchy: The lines need a lot of
retooling. With Maurice Evans and Aaron Maybin taking off early for the
NFL, new stars need to be found at defensive end. The offensive line is
a bigger issue. Guard Stefen Wisniewski might be the best in the
country, but he's one of just two returning starters. Good luck
replacing the four-year receiving corps of Derrick Williams, Deon Butler
and Jordan Norwood.
The number one thing to work on is:
The passing game. Clark had a great season, but he wasn't able to come
through in the fourth quarter against Iowa and he wasn't in for the key
final drive in the win over Penn State. He was ultra-efficient, and now
he'll have to be even better with his receiving corps gone. The offense
will revolve around the running game early on, and there will be time,
with the schedule relatively light, to get the passing attack rolling.
Biggest offensive loss:
WR Derrick WilliamsBiggest defensive loss: DE Aaron
MaybinBest returning offensive player: QB Daryll Clark, Sr.
Best returning defensive player: LB Sean Lee, Sr.
Purdue Boilermakers
CFN Preseason Prediction: 6-6 Final Record: 4-8Why to get excited: The Big Ten's leading
pass defense gets the entire secondary back. While the Boilermakers led
the conference primarily because the run defense was getting rolled,
this should still be the team's strength. Six of the first eight games
are at home, and while there are some tough battles, especially against
Ohio State and Illinois, there should be time to reload a bit.
Why to be grouchy: The offense has to
replace just about everyone. Including Curtis Painter, Purdue loses
eight starters off an attack that didn't do anything anyway, while the
defensive line loses Alex Magee and Ryan Baker. Yeah, the home games
define the first part of the season, but there's a price to pay. The
Boilermakers go on the road for three of their final four games, even if
they are against Wisconsin, Michigan and Indiana.
The number one thing to work on is:
Incorporating the first recruiting class. It's not a strong class, but
it was build to immediately fill some holes. And there are a lot of
holes. Can Al-Terek McBurse carry the rushing load right away? Will
receivers Eric Williams, Gary Bush, and Gabe Holmes, all from Florida,
be able to take over the passing game? Hope needs an influx of talent to
at least build depth early on.
Biggest offensive loss:
RB Kory SheetsBiggest defensive loss: LB Anthony Heygood
Best returning offensive player: OT Zach Jones, Sr. Best
returning defensive player: DE Ryan Kerrigan, Jr.
Wisconsin Badgers
CFN Preseason Prediction: 10-2 Final Record: 7-6
Why to get excited: The Badgers might be
tremendously flawed, and if they play like they did last year they can
be beaten by anyone, but the schedule works out relatively well with no
Penn State or Illinois and plenty of winnable home games against teams
like Wofford, Northern Illinois, and Purdue. The offense gets back seven
starters, while the defense returns three starters in the secondary.
Getting back PK Philip Welch and P Brad Nortman is a plus.
Why to be grouchy: There are eight games
against 2008 bowl teams, and that includes a regular-season ending trip
to Hawaii. For a team that struggled against Cal Poly and was lucky just
to get a 13th game last season, it'll need to be far tighter
and a lot better. The defensive line that was such a disappointment at
times last season loses three key starters, while the offensive line has
to replace three starters, too. John Clay might be the team's most
talented back, but losing P.J. Hill to the NFL a year early will sting.
The number one thing to work on is:
Generating more of a pass rush. The offense isn't going to be explosive
enough to win with on a regular basis; the defensive will need to steal
a game or three. That'll only happen if the front line shines. Even with
a good group of defensive linemen last year, the Badgers still struggled
to get into the backfield on a regular basis. Now they need to replace,
tackles Jason Chapman and Mike Newkirk along with end Matt Shaughnessy.
Biggest offensive loss: RB P.J. Hill
Biggest defensive loss: CB Allen LangfordBest returning
offensive player: TE Garrett Graham, Sr.Best returning
defensive player: LB Jaevery McFadden, Sr.

DID you get pregnant with only one ovary???
I have P.I.D. and had an ovary removed. I seem to be having a hard time getting pregant again.JUst wondering if anyone has a similar story???
yes I have five kids too. I had some pid problems after my 3rd was born and I found out only have one functioning ovary and it was congenitial
My 1st and second are 2yrs 9 months apart. I had a mc when oldest was 18months. My second and this baby will be 4.5yrs apart. M/c when he was 2.5 (was on birth control until he was 2).
It is completely possible! Hang in there.
A gal I worked with had to have her ovary removed due to an ectopic pregnancy.
She was able to concieve after that and have a healthy baby girl.
Have you talked to your dr about your concerns?

WALLA WALLA — Walla Walla County Sheriff's deputies gave unsuccessful chase to a yellow, low-rider Isuzu pickup early this morning after officers spotted suspicious activity near Wallula Avenue.
According to Undersheriff Edward Freyer, the suspect motorist fled when deputies attempted a traffic stop at roughly 4:40 a.m., turning south onto College Avenue.
The driver continued through College Place, turning onto Mojonnier Road. Deputies gave chase across Stateline Road into Oregon.
"It went on for an extended period of time," Freyer said.
The roughly 20-minute chase ended on Appleton Road, near Winesap Road in Milton-Freewater when the driver of the Isuzu pickup eluded Walla Walla County Sheriff's deputies and Milton-Freewater police after driving into an apple orchard.
According to Freyer, the Sheriff's Office investigation is continuing.

I noticed bikerooms site was down for the past month or so, and now i check today and it says "Bikeroom is currently not taking orders".
Hopefully he is shut down for good.

Oooh, its in big red letters that are on fire.
I know, I saw that and was thinking about making a thread. But then I though that no one would care.
I do feel bad for David. I think he is a genuinely good guy, but like most places, tried to run the company lean. To little staff for SOOOO much business. There is still no canadian comparitive to the US pricing online, bikeroom tried to offer that.
I have mixed emotions at this point. But really I feel bad for this market.
i would probably feel bad for him if he kept his promise and told the truth to me, but it was pretty clear that he lied to me.Originally Posted by Maelstrom
But yeah, i'll miss his prices, its too bad we cant have more places like that (back when it was a good site) up here.
Its unfortunate but a little shop in WA and Jenson get all my money. I would love to feed to local economy in some way, but it just isnt feasible.Originally Posted by free_pizza
It's gotten to the point that I find it so much easier to send an email to Mountain High Cyclery with a parts list. I get a reply with price and then close the deal.
I've been very pleased dealing with Ebay, too. You can get some fantastic deals sometimes. I just bought a compact crankset (Shimano F700) for my road bike for $180 + 20 shipping USD straight from Japan. I wasn't able to find anyone coming close to that price.

ive got a wee list of stuff i need for this season, think im just gonna get it from pricepoint. i'll pay a bit on customs, but it'll still be cheaper than buying locally.
Do yourself a favour. Send your item list to Larry at MtnHighCyclery.com. You will be very, very surprised at the prices. If he can't beat a price he'll tell you. I had asked for the price of some cranks and he told me to just get them off of one of the discount parts stores as he couldn't beat some of the late season deals floating around.Originally Posted by free_pizza
However what I find is that on an overall price list, he has great prices. He also ships using US Postal Service so no UPS/Fedex brokerage fees.
First Class Jerk
Agreed (with the shipping aspect) by the time the items get to me it is almost no difference in price to what was advertised. I just make sure to order a lot of items instead of one offs.Originally Posted by santiago

It is sad to lose a Canadian Online seller like that.
I did have an issue with Bikeroom and an order of mine that was all wrong. After a few unanswered e-mails, I caulked it up to a loss. Strangely enough about 5 months later, they emailed me apologized and refunded my money, and I was told to keep the parts.
my issue was different. Un-authorized $475 charge to my credit card, 15-20 unanswered emails, and about 10 un-answered voice mail messages. Finally got through and talked to him, he assured me that my money was refunded and all would be well. It still took another month for the money to appear.Originally Posted by ViperZ
Happened to my friend too.
Well any time money is owed and return Emails don't get answered, there is no excuse and they should be shutdown. I just looked for their site last week because I am looking for a rear wheel and did purchase a Fox RLT 100 from them with no issues when I bought my bike last year. (Used rear wheel would be nice too pm)

I used to order from bikeroom, before I "discovered" that it is just as easy ordering from any other online retailer outside of Canada. In fact now that I've ordered from the UK and Germany (CRC and Starbike) and was amazed by the turnaround time and prices I don't think I'll order from the USA again, except for cheap stuff from Nashbar.
I was pretty jazzed to see a Canuck online store, but really unimpressed with their service. Luckily, they only screwed me for $10. I'd be out for blood if it was $450.00
There really should be more Canadian online bike stores - I can't think of why there isn't. Canada Post is surprisingly fast for a reasonable fee. The size of the market may be a concern, but I think an argument could be made that not having to deal with customs might create its own market in Canada.
MtnHighCyclery.com really needs to update their page. 2004 FTW!!!

Chainreactioncycles.com has good deals on MTB stuff. I hate looking there, the prices are too cheap! Last week I was almost seduced to buy a set of Crossmax SL V brake wheels from them for $625CDN SHIPPED! Their prices on Shimano components are also very very good.
How is shipping? What shipping company do they use? How expensive is it to have it shipped from Europe?Originally Posted by KrisA
First Class Jerk
Yep. That happened to me too. Over $600. It was the second time I had problems with them like that. First time, ok, fine, mistakes happen. Second time it happened, and like usual, no possible way to get a hold of them, I was pissed. No replies to my e-mails, phone calls etc. I figured screw this and called my CC company to file a dispute to get my money back. Could be a good scam too. How many people don't notice a charge on their card several months later, probably a lot. They had great deals, but it isn't worth being scammed for parts twice, and hundreds of dollars with non existent service. Good riddance.Originally Posted by free_pizza

Hmmm sounds like this canadian seller needs to learn how to run an online business. Meh.. I use jensonusa. Ground shipping get's parts here in two days, because they are based in cali. Great prices. Always get a customer rep when I call. One time when I thought they got my order wrong they sent me another part instantly. I kept both free of charge.
Shipping was fast, less than 2 weeks till the goods were in my hands. Cost? Free if you are over a certain threshold, which I think is around 300 bucks CDN. I think they shipped via "Parcel Force", was delivered in Canada via Canada Post with no fees other than PST And GST.Originally Posted by santiago
On my German order from Starbike they shipped via German Post (or whatever it's called) and didn't declare any value on the parts (not a big order, got a Flite saddle, couple of Schwalbe tires, tubes, other odds and ends) so I didn't have to pay any fees or GST and PST!!!
Sweet. I much prefer receiving packages via regular post. You can sometimes get lucky and not have to pay anything. At worst you pay GST/PST and maybe a small handling fee.Originally Posted by KrisA

Overall I pay tax less than half the time on Canada Post delivered Ebay purchases.

I needed my roses to be as white as possible for the wedding I was decorating for. I was VERY happy when the roses showed up almost pure white! I received my order nicely packaged with plenty of moisture and protection. The roses were still in fine shape 2 days later when the event occurred. I just followed the online care instructions. It is for sure a place I will order from again!

Dear Experts,
My young horse has taken up an alarming habit.
It all started when I bought him a Smoking Jacket.
I suspected something because he was constantly sneaking off into the forest, but it wasn't until today when I finally caught him at it that I finally had proof.
He tells me that he feels it makes him appear more bourgeois, and that other horses take him more seriously now, but I think he is far too young and am worried about his health.
Has anyone else had this problem?

Gortat's thumb OK after bold shot block of Josh Smith
Gortat blocks Josh Smith's dunk attempt
Marcin Gortat now has a sore left thumb on his non-shooting hand, but it was worth it. He challenged Josh Smith at the rim -- and won.
The game still was on the line. The Wizards (14-14) exploded in the fourth quarter to regain the lead at 101-97 with 51 seconds left at the Detroit Pistons. Nene had just missed a layup and Smith, a 6-9, 225-pound forward known for attacking the rim with authority, could've made it a one-possession game.
Gortat, who is two inches taller and 15 pounds heavier, changed that.
"I was having that frustrating night. That happens a lot of time during the regular season," said Gortat of just getting eight points and four rebounds in Monday's 106-99 victory. "I knew that I got nothing to lose. Either I'm going to go block or I'm just going to get dunked on. So i just tried to get at least one good play for the team at the end of the game to help the team win the game and when I went for the block he made a really powerful move. I blocked his shot and I guess he kind of moved me with the ball. I smacked the rim with my thumb. I just kind of bruise my nerve. I had a numb finger for a few minutes."
The block led to a fadeaway jump shot from John Wall that killed any chances of a comeback by Detroit.
"Josh is known for going hard to the rim. If he puts the ball on the floor he's not hesitating especially when he had that momentum going from the three-point line," said Gortat. "I've been in that situation when I get dunked on a few times and particularly by this guy. You always think twice. End of the day, that's my responsibility, to be a shot blocker, to be a rebounder. (Rebounding) is not really working for me recently."

This review is from: 5.1 Ch Bluray Home Theatre System
Pros: * Dummy proof installation. All speakers and wires are color coded for an easy installation
Cons: * Speaker wires are super thin and too short. Front speakers have plenty of wire but the rear speakers are too short for a clean routing along the wall (or ceiling).
Other Thoughts: Overall this is a great setup. I did list plenty of Cons but you do have to consider this is a really cheap setup and for beginners probably the best bang for your buck. |

Works Great!
This review is from: 5.1 Ch Bluray Home Theatre System
Pros: Easy to set-up and works great with a new 47" LED 3D Passive TV. The remote has an easy and logical lay-out without being a huge remote. Has optical digital audio input, aux input in case a person does not on their TV. Love fact they thought to place USB 2 input on the front for easy connection of peripherals.
Cons: Like other reviews, I did not care for the subwoofer that came with it and fortunately, the system I was replacing had a great subwoofer and utilized same wire-insert-type speaker connection on rear. I wrongly assumed like ANY stereo component, it would have a headphones output but sadly it does not but am going to try a wireless headphone in future and these two things are only reason took one egg away because otherwise it's a great system for its price.
Other Thoughts: I wanted to finally get Blueray, DVD, CD player that also had at least an FM tuner to replace my old surround system. having the "Smart Features" such as APPS and such are a nice bonus but with many options already with my particular cable set-up, will probably not use them. I would have liked to be able to tweak the sound more so but happily found could do that through the new TV and digital optical audio in to this player. Would do it again at this price.

When speaking with wpx IR the biggest thing I got from the conversation was that they are afraid of being taken out on the cheap. This is because there is a huge float and lots of weak hands holding the stock. (So I imagine a hostile takeover scenario). How many shareholders that either bought below a dollar or bought at slightly over $1 would gladly accept a buck now. The market is cruel and unfair, it should in fairness be worth at least $2..
It's the same principle for krn and aaa. Only difference is that krn's management owns 30% of the company and an Indian Jv owns another 20% so it would be really hard to take a controlling influence with such a low float(own lay 21 million shares not including h Indians.
bottom line is that wpx has a good resource and it is only because of the current shortsighted condition of the market as to why it does not trade at least at a buck. But crazy thing is I can still see this trading lower only because the market knows wpx only has plan A- $3.3billion.

If you're looking for a family adventure, look no further than an airboat ride.
I experienced my first airboat ride last year with Boggy Creek Airboats, through the waters of Lake Tohopekaliga in the Kissimmee area. It was exhilarating to ride through the waters and experience wildlife in such a natural setting.
Our airboat guide showed us the alligators favorite hiding spots and was a pro at pointing out the creatures to us, as they lay hiding in the swampy waters. During our trip we even learned about the plants and waterways that surrounded us.
I expected it to be a bumpy ride and I couldn't have been more wrong! We glided across the water, quickly and safely. It was such a great experience and offered a unique view of Florida. It is definitely something I want to do again once my girls get a little older.
Have you ever been on an airboat ride?

Republican challenger Michael Grimm has a proven track record of public service for both the country and New York. Working 11 years as an FBI agent, he fought relentlessly to "drain the swamps" of Wall Street as he chipped away at corruption. Grimm, true to form, is fed up with the irresponsible, out-of-control spending that has defined this Democratic Congress. He believes that lowering taxes -- not bloated "stimulus" packages – is the way to boost the economy. Because he believes in fiscal responsibility and limited government, Grimm will take a stand against measures like the national energy tax, and he'll work to restore the integrity of Congress and elected officials.
This past Tuesday, Grimm defeated a strong challenge from a high-quality primary opponent by almost 40 points. That enormous margin of victory can only happen with a strong, tenacious grass-roots campaign, broad-based appeal and winning message.
On November 2nd, voters in the 13th Congressional District can tell party-line Democrats both at home and in Washington that they're fed up with their out-of-control agenda and have learned from the mistake they made in 2008. They can do so by sending Michael Grimm down to Washington, D.C. because he'll fight for their interests, and he'll stand by his commitment to reign in such radical spending habits in our nation's capital.
For more information on Grimm and his campaign, please visit his website, or visit his Facebook and Twitter.

I'm 30 weeks, but I'm measuring at 31 weeks. I've only gained 5 pounds..The Doc thinks its all baby! We'll see next Saturday when we go for our 3D!
thanks ladies! also - look what I found: http://www.babycenter.com/average-fetal-length-weight-chart
My lil guy was that at 28 weeks, for the 28th week that's right around normal (50%), which is putting me on track for an 8lb baby (give or take). And remember the measurements are not exact. Like others have said, if your doctor isn't worried or doesn't say anything about it, then you're probably right where you want to be.

WORCESTER, Massachusetts (CBS/AP) Police in Worcester, Massachusetts, are trying to figure out who killed an expectant mother, removed a fetus from her womb and dumped her body in a closet. The fetus is missing.
Authorities say 23-year-old Darlene Haynes was about eight months pregnant and the fetus could survive, but would need immediate medical attention.
Haynes' body was found Monday by her landlord, who was checking on a strong odor coming from the apartment. Police say the body was found wrapped in bedding in a closet and that the victim had apparently been dead for several days.
Police say the death was ruled a homicide, but the exact cause of death had not been determined. An autopsy shows her fetus was removed.
Officials say Haynes also has a 1-year-old daughter who is safe with relatives. Worcester police are searching for the fetus, according to the Boston Herald.

Bear East is the "nom de nerd" of X-Plane scenery design team K. Grace and Jayson Ng. They work both together and independently and enjoy creating Asian airports in their signature style, providing touches that make visitors feel that they are really in the country of the airport.
The Britten-Norman BN-2 Islander is a popular twin engine airliner. The version from Flight1 for FSX is not exactly new, but it is a favorite of reviewer Steve Franklin. Here he offers a quick look at this plane which you may also enjoy adding to your hangar.
Time for a new Where In The World challenge from Ron Blehm. The current theme is still capital cities, with last month's proving to be a bit of a trick since you had to get both the right location and the right airport. Feature number 78 takes us to a capital with one of the trickiest, non-precision approaches in the world! Can you figure out where it is?
Most of our reviews cover commercial products but today we highlight the work of one of the many talented freeware teams. Reviewer Ron Blehm discovered the FSX scenery of Rafael Hernandez Airport and the surrounding area in Puerto Rico created by Ron Rosado. Although he ran into a few issues the scenery made for a great excuse to fly into this island.
Are you unhappy with the way your Microsoft Flight Simulator airplanes fly? It's quite possible to change them. Many flightsimmers have learned to do it over the years. Though it can be quite complex, help is available. In this tutorial Bob Chicilo explains how to make a wide variety of changes, offering tips for tweaking things and explaining what many of the terms found in the aircraft.cfg really mean.
In this tutorial series, Paul Mort teaches the basics of X-Plane scenery creation using Overlay Editor. You may find scenery is easier to create than you might think, as objects can be dropped into position, adjusted and rotated, with ease. In this part, we learn how to have control over our collection of objects; we first need to know how to find them, how they are structured and importantly, how and where to add new items.
Ron Blehm here offers what he calls a "PREview" of the CamSim 797 created by Camil Valiquette. "Preview" because what he's really interested in is the version 5 coming in early 2016 but in the meantime wants to introduce people to this interesting aircraft in its currently available version.
Adding moving ground traffic to X-Plane scenery is easier than you might think. In this short tutorial, Paul Mort explains how to use Marginal's Ground Traffic Plug-In. You'll find it's no more that picking an object to animate and tracing out a route for it to follow.
Airport & City v2 for FSX by AFS Design includes 500 new building textures with photoreal 1024 textures. It is a comprehensive package of new textures for autogen buildings that will make 3D objects more detailed and realistic. Reviewer Bill Stack offers his comments and lots of comparative screen shots and generally found it worked as advertised.
In this new tutorial series, Paul Mort teaches the basics of X-Plane scenery creation using Overlay Editor. You may find scenery is easier to create than you might think, as objects can be dropped into position, adjusted and rotated, with ease. This part covers this like understanding viewpoints and different types of objects, and manipulating polygons.
If you ever wondered "Where is that one airport that really challenges my pilot skills?" Here it is! Paro, Bhutan is widely considered the hardest and most dangerous approach in the world. Aerosoft offers a version for FSX and Prepar3D that accurately recreates the airport with custom scenery for the area. Reviewer Justin Cogo found the airport as challenging as advertised.
The Davis D-1 is a parasol-winged aircraft of mixed construction with a two-spar wing and a rectangular welded steel-tube fuselage, the whole being covered by fabric. This classic is now available for FSX/P3D from Golden Age Simulations.
Platinum Airways will pay tribute to the world's most successful film series, James Bond aka 007. Live And Let Fly, the December 2015 Destination of the Week theme, will visit five airports that are linked with key Bond personalities.
The Canadian Xpress Concorde Anniversary Tour consists of 18 legs which must be flown in order, starts where the last flight of the Concorde landed 12 years ago on November 26th 2003, at Bristol Filton Airport (EGTG). Filton is closed today to commercial operations, however private and EMS flights still operate from there.
xFuel is an open source app for Android (iOS version under development) that lets you easily calculate and generate fuel sheets for your flight simulator flights. A completely overhauled version of the Android app has been under development for some time and the developer is now looking for testers.
New from Emerald Scenery Design is FSX/P3D scenery of Kaghau Airport, in the Choiseul Province of the Solomon Islands. The airport is compatible with the FTX Global series and other add-ons. It features photoreal imagery, 38 m/px terrain mesh, custom buildings and plants, ocean sounds and more.
Here's something to be thankful for: over 40 great flightsim publishers offering their best products on sale this week, some with savings of as much as 70%! Visit the FS Pilot Shop today for Black Friday sales and fill up your hangar with great products.
Now at the FS Pilot Shop from Carenado is the X-Plane version of their CT206H Stationair G1000 Extension. This is an add-on for their CT206H Stationair and gives it a modern glass cockpit with a Carenado G1000 PFD and MFD with a full range of features.
Now at the FS Pilot Shop from Rolling Cumulus for FSX is India Forever Expedition 1932. How would you like to go back in time, to 1932 to be exact, and fly over India when it was part of the British Empire? With this mission pack you will!
External EasyFMC from Eric Marciano is a simple and universal Flight Management Computer. It offers exactly the same features as EasyFMC. It requires no navigation database, it can be used with any aircraft and it is provided with two FMC look-and-feel: Airbus and Boeing.
Now available at the FS Pilot Shop for FSX is the complete representation of the Bombardier Learjet 60 midsize business jet from Perfect Flight. Strong dependability and exceptional cabin comfort with a 2510 nm range. The Bombardier Learjet 60 is widely recognized as one of the quietest midsize jets currently in service, offering virtually unrestricted access to noise sensitive airports.
Canadian Xpress invites all pilots to join us them Saturday, November 28th for their November 2015 fly-in from Miami to Princes Juliana International for a spectacular approach over the famous Maho beach, where aircraft fly just feet above the heads of beach goers as they enjoy the white sands and clear waters of the Caribbean.
You can spend hours at the cockpit and you want to improve your in-home cockpit to make it the most appealing and realistic set up possible. The wait is over for one of the most requested keyboards of all time, the Flight Simulator X Keyboard from Editors Keys, now available from the FS Pilot Shop.

Somehow, pictures do not do this justice. I truly love the mood and serenity. I've always been deeply moved by the beauty of sunrise and sunset, and this captures everything. Arup Jensen, born 1906, created primarily marine paintings. One never tires of his work. This painting is from the mid 20th Century. The paintings size, without frame, is 25 and 1/2 inches (65 cm) high and 36 inches (91 cm) wide. The frame itself is 3 inches (7 cm) wide. This large oil painting depicts a view of a coast with a fishing boat moored just outside the coast, two boats on the beach and a beautiful sunset. It is signed by the artist lower left corner. The painting is in good condition with slight surface grime and abrasions. The beautiful wooden frame is in very good condition with minimal signs of wear. It is ready for display. The painting was authenticated by art expert Mesa Bajric. His credentials are as follows: MA in Graphic and History of Art at the Academy of Art in Sarajevo Expert in: Graphic 16th – 20th century Central European Art Former Employers: Museums: Portrait Gallery in Tuzla, Slovenia Exhibitions: Moscow, Russia Gelsenkirchen, Germany Dubrovnik, Croatia Belgrade, Serbia Sarajevo, Bosnia Ljublijana, Slovenia Zagreb, Croatia Copenhagen, Denmark

Giorgi Dugashvili, a dentist and new Special Olympics Special Smiles clinical director who completed his training at the 2013 Special Olympics World Winter Games in the Republic of Korea, immediately began planning for Healthy Athletes in his home country of Georgia after returning from the Games. On 28 September 2013, Dugashvili coordinated Georgia's first Healthy Athletes clinic, with 30 Special Olympics athletes completing dental examinations. During the screenings, 11 follow-up care items were identified and free follow-up care was provided on site. All aspects of this event - which also celebrated EKS Day - were completely locally funded. The host clinic, Tbilisi State Medical University Dental Clinic N1, and Tbilisi Medical University covered all of the associated fees. In addition, Dugashvili held seminars with his co-workers at the clinic prior to the event to educate them about how to provide health care to people with intellectual disabilities. Dugashvili shared, "I got involved with Special Olympics because it is very noble work. I am glad to contribute in any way that I can."

Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion C4-C5, C5-C6, C6-C7
Please help. Spine surgery is really getting the best of me. How would you code this?
Pre-op dx: 1.Cervical degenerative disk disease. 2. Cervical stenosis 3. Cervical spondylosis 4. Cervical radiculopathy
Post-op dx: same as above
Procedure performed:
1. Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion C4-C5, C5-C6, C6-C7
2. Partial corpectomy C5
3. Partial corpectomy, C6
4. Partial corpectomy, C7
Procedure A left-sided incision was made and Smith Robinson approach was utilized to dissect down to the ventral aspect of the cervical spine. We localized the levels radiographically and elevated the longus collo from the mid body of C4 to the mid body of C7. We then placed shadow line retractors over the C4-C5 disc space and performed a discectomy in standard fashion and the discectomy was carried down to the level of the posterior longitudinal ligament. We retrieved one fragment of disc from the midline where ther was a disruption of the posterior longitudinal ligament. otherwise, there was minimal canal or foraminal disease at this level. We then placed a size 7 cortical cancellous spacer and moved the Caspar pins over the C5-C6 diisc space where ventral osteophytes were resected as well as posterior osteophyte and foraminal osteophyte affecting a subtotal corpectomy throughout the course of the discectomy. Bilateral anterior foraminotomies were performed and the posterior longitudinal ligament was taken down bilaterally, centrally was left intact. we placed a size 8 cortical cancellous spacer, moved the Caspar pins to the C6-C7 disc space and in a similar fashion during our diskectomy, resected the ventral posterior foraminal osteophyte affecting a subtotal corpectomy of C6 and C7 to obtain complete decompression. We then placed a size 8 cortial cancellous spacer and removed the Caspar pins in the shadow line rectors. An anterior cervical plate by Medtronic was placed on the ventral aspect of the cervical spine and intraoperative AP and lateral radiographs were obtained, which confirmed postiton of all implants and grafts. we ensured absolute hemostasis, a deep drain was placed. the wound was closed in layers. The patient awoke without event and was taken to the recovery room in stable condition.
CPT codes used; 63081, 63082 x2, 22551, 22552 x2, 22846, 22851x2, 20931, and 20936.
I do not feel these are all correct. Please give me your opinion and also Thanks for all your help.
I wouldnt code a corpectomy. You have to document that 1/2 of the vertebral body was removed for cervical, 1/3 for lumbar and thoracic. The word subtotal isnt enough, the dr. has to state what portion was removed. If not, it is a discectomy which would be 22551 and 22552 x 2. I dont see, unless I am missing it where local bone was used so I wouldnt use 20936. the spacer would be 20931. The plate would be 22846, although I would let the dr. know that he really should dictate at which levels he places the instrumentation. Hope this helps!
i would say that those codes are correct but you 22851 needs to be times 3 because it is a 3 level fusion. & if bone marrow aspirate was used you need the 38220X2. I work for a spine surgeon & use these codes all day long. We very rarley do the ACDF with corpectomy. I do know that the operative report needs to very clearly detail the corpectomy along with the ACDF or they will bundle into one another. Hope this helps.
I work with neurosurgeons as well and we do perform a lot of ACDF's, quite a few are with corpectomies. You can not bill for a discectomy 1 level above, below or at the same segment that you do a corpectomy, it is included. If you bill 22551 with 63081, this is like billing 63075, 22554 and 63081 together for the same level, the discectomy is included and will get thrown out anyway. If you bill for a corpectomy, you would bill 63081 and 22554 plus the additional level codes. If you give me your fax number, I would be happy to fax you an instrumentation "cheat sheet" that I use all the time which gives the name of a type of graft and what code to bill which we obtained at a coding seminar. Thank you.
OMG, Thank You so much, I really struggle with spinal procedures My fax # is 352-567-6439. I really appreciate this, send me everything you have.
No problem! I will send right away. Thank you, I will just put to attn: N E Smith.
can you fax this cheat sheet to me at (512) 524-2251, attention Donni.
I would really appreciate this. Thanks, Donni
Would you mind faxing to me also? I'm trying to get more confident in coding neurosurgery, and would like any resources possible!! My fax is 225-768-2806. TIA!!!
Meagan Strauss, CPC, CEMC
Coding Coordinator
The NeuroMedical Center
Baton Rouge, LA
I am faxing the info requested today to both Donni and Meagan. Hope it helps.
NASS just printed in the 2011 Common Coding Scenarios the following on page 97: "Vertebral corpectomy is not used for resection of osteophytes. It is recommended that at least half of the vertebral body be removed when reporting this code. A corpectomy includes both the cranial and caudal discs and anterior discectomy is not separately reportable at the same segment."
Here is the information from the AMA and they give several sources in their reply and I noticed one is from 2008 so the above from NASS of 2011 might be helpful also:
"Question #3: Can they also bill for a corpectomy at C4/5 when also doing an arthrodesis and discectomy and that same level - 22551 and 63081?
AMA Response. Depends. According to the American Association of Neurological Surgeons definition of "corpectomy", the amount of bone removed will still usually exceed one third of the mass of the vertebral body, and sometimes comprise the majority of the body.
As defined in the Anterior o Anterolateral Approach Technique CPT guidelines, page 104 of the professional edition of CPT® 2011, "A vertebral interspace is the non-bony compartment between two adjacent vertebral bodies, which contains the intervertebral disc, and includes the nucleus pulposus, annulus fibrosus, and two cartilagenous endplates". The CPT spine "arthrodesis" codes include preparation of the vertebral body endplates. If the amount of bone to prepare the interspace for fusion does not exceed "one-third of the mass of the vertebral body", then it is not appropriate to additionally report code 63081, Vertebral corpectomy (vertebral body resection), partial or complete, anterior approach with decompression of spinal cord and/or nerve root(s); cervical, single segment.
As stated below, to qualify for reporting a vertebral corpectomy code, "The bone removal includes at least one intervertebral endplate, and may extend to the other unless terminated within the body to secure the end of a strut graft. The amount of bone removal is generally at least one-half of the body, and is significantly greater than the removal of cortical endplates for an interbody arthrodesis (eg, 22554)."
The following definition of vertebral corpectomy is provided in the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, 2008 coding guide for CPT code 63081, Vertebral corpectomy (vertebral body resection), partial or complete, anterior approach with decompression of spinal cord and/or nerve root(s); cervical, single segment:
"Vertebral corpectomy: Partial or complete, is used to describe removal of a substantial portion of the body of the vertebra. In the cervical spine, this generally includes removal of a longitudinal portion of the vertebral body to the spinal canal, and may include the posterior longitudinal ligament. The bone removal includes at least one intervertebral endplate, and may extend to the other unless terminated within the body to secure the end of a strut graft. The amount of bone removal is generally at least one-half of the body, and is significantly greater than the removal of cortical endplates for an interbody arthrodesis (eg, 22554). In the thoracic and lumbar spine, the location of bone removed will usually be either lateral or anterolateral due to the restrictions of various approaches to the spine. However, the amount of bone removed will still usually exceed one third of the mass of the vertebral body, and sometimes comprise the majority of the body."
