Now that the immigration debate has moved to the House of Representatives, the dominant media narrative is that Republicans are itching to kill the reform bill.
Yet few journalists scrutinize the left. Democrats have an itch of their own. They want to appear to champion immigration reform to please Latino voters, but they can't afford to go too far lest they make enemies of blue-collar workers who fear that legalizing the undocumented will lower wages.
Democrats - who didn't go anywhere near the issue from 2009 to 2011, when they controlled Congress and the White House - have little interest ...

Re: How do i get safari back? in response to cmilla32
Are you trying to open Safari from the Dock or from the Applications folder? If opening from the dock, try opening from the Applications folder. If that works, click and hold on the old icon on the dock, drag it up over the desktop and let it go "POOF". Now, from the Applications folder, click and drag Safari back onto the dock.
Is Safari missing from the Applications folder? If it's missing, put your Leopard DVD in the iMac, and look for a folder that says something like Other Software Installs, or Extra Applications Install. And re-install Safari, then use Software Update to update to latest version for Leopard.
Or maybe the Safari Preferences fileis corrupt. Try dragging this file to the trash:

Good luck.

The addition of Margaret Court Arena as a third retractable-roof stadium at Melbourne Park will officially "weatherproof" the Australian Open, according to Tennis Australia CEO Craig Tiley.By Tennis Australia | Saturday, 7 June, 2014
The addition of Margaret Court Arena as a third retractable-roof stadium at Melbourne Park will officially "weatherproof" the Australian Open, according to Tennis Australia CEO Craig Tiley.
"Plans for Australian Open 2015 are well underway and we look forward to unveiling the new MCA, which promises to be one of the finest tennis stadiums in the world," Tiley said as he outlined plans for the 2015 tournament.
New initiatives announced for Australian Open 2015 include the ticketing of Margaret Court Arena, with ground pass holders gaining access to more than 9500 general admission seats at Hisense Arena.
"The retractable roof at MCA, along with ground pass entry for fans at Hisense, will ensure more fans than ever before have access to uninterrupted tennis action, whatever the weather," Tiley said.
"The redevelopment and stadium upgrades mean we could technically complete all Australian Open matches even with a fortnight of solid rain.
"We are very proud to lead the way in world tennis as the only Grand Slam with three retractable roof venues, and MCA will feature what we believe to be the world's fastest moving stadium roof, which will open or close in just five minutes.
"We had a taste of MCA's intimate atmosphere this year and with an extra 2500 seats next year it promises to be electric. We want to ensure as many fans as possible have access to the MCA matches, and by ticketing the venue patrons can plan their AO experience well in advance," Tiley continued.
New initiatives for AO 2015 include:
Margaret Court Arena, with the stunning new roof and now total crowd capacity of 7300, is the final piece in Stage One of the Victorian Government's $366 million redevelopment of Melbourne Park.
Additional benefits for tennis fans include:
Stage Two of the Melbourne Park redevelopment was announced in January and includes a major refurbishment of Rod Laver Arena, a new city access bridge from Birrarung Marr and broadcast and administration buildings. The project is currently in the planning and design stage.
Australian Open ticket packages for Rod Laver Arena and Margaret Court Arena go on sale at 9am on Wednesday 1 October (AEST), with single session tickets and ground passes on sale from 9am on Tuesday 8 October. Tickets will be available from www.ticketek.com.au

after the women's game.
That is pretty cool. Would have preferred them to tape delay it and start from the beginning, but this is just as good. Should probably get most of the second half. If the game is close, that place will be rockin! Perhaps CHAP will do some live lookins.
I have always thought it would be fun to watch a game at Hilton with a bunch of cyclone fans.
Good idea, may be an added incentive to attend.

College Station isn't the only city trying to stop thefts of recyclables. Several U.S. cities have been hit hard by thieves looking to cash in on the suddenly-lucrative recycling market.
With prices for aluminum, cardboard and newsprint going up and an economic slowdown putting added pressure on people's pocketbooks, curbside refuse has become a hot commodity.
In some cities, a truck piled high with mixed recyclables can fetch upward of $1,000; newspapers alone can grab about $600.
"These guys are becoming much more organized and much more prevalent," said Robert Reed, a spokesman for Norcal Waste Systems Inc., a garbage and recycling company in San Francisco and other cities throughout Northern California. "This has nothing to do with the lone homeless man picking up cans. We're seeing organized fleets of professional poachers with trucks."
The issue has caught the attention of state and local officials, who are seeking more stringent regulations to curb theft, saying lost revenue threatens the financial viability of their recycling programs.
Pilfering cans, bottles and other recyclables from bins is already illegal in many places, including San Francisco and New York City. In San Francisco poachers can be fined up to $500 and get six months jail time. In New York, thieves are subject to arrest, vehicle impoundment and fines of up to $5,000.
California lawmakers are also considering legislation that would make large-scale, anonymous recycling more difficult by forcing scrap and paper recyclers to require picture identification for anyone bringing in more than $50 worth of cans, bottles or newspapers and to pay such individuals with checks rather than cash.
In Westchester County, New York, a proposal would make large-scale curbside recycling theft punishable by time behind bars and fines of up to $2,000.
Companies are also taking measures of their own. Norcal Waste contracted private investigators and installed surveillance cameras at San Francisco spots frequented by poachers. The investigators compiled dozens of photographs of old pickup trucks covered by spray-painted graffiti and piled high with recyclables allegedly stolen from residents.
The free weekly, The East Bay Express, which covers Oakland, Berkeley and other Bay Area cities, hired an ex-police detective to stake out thieves and began retrofitting curbside newspaper racks to make them theft-resistant because thousands of fresh copies go missing some weeks. "We don't want to be spending all our energy printing papers that people take directly to the recyclers," said Hal Brody, the paper's president.

Arms deal probe adjournedComment on this story
Pretoria - The Seriti Commission of Inquiry into the 1999 arms deal adjourned on Thursday.
The inquiry would resume on April 24, spokesman William Baloyi said in a statement.
This was to give evidence leaders more time to consult witnesses.
"Some of them are no longer residents of South Africa. Some are no longer 1/8employed at 3/8 the companies they have to testify about," he said.
The commission, sitting in Pretoria and headed by Judge Willie Seriti, is investigating allegations of corruption in the multi-billion rand arms deal.

Re: Ronnie Heffron Vs Denton Vassell 30/11/2012
Allegedly clearly wants to make Heffron vs Gavin at the earliest opportunity, so to do it he's going to have to accelerate Heffron somewhat.
Arnie must tear his hair out (what's left of it
) because he just seems to make the same mistakes every fight and get drawn into a tear up when there's no need.
He's probably ideal sparring for an experienced fighter because of his endless enthusiasm but when he's fighting himself he makes it unnecesarily difficult....
Contrast his development to that of Butler at the same gym, one is a championship class performer who looks polished, the other is seriously raw and has a lot of things to improve on - that he ought to have sorted by now.

Cho On Playing Asian Characters
As reported by New American Media, Gene Roddenberry meant for Sulu to represent the continent of Asia, not one specific ethnicity.
"I talked to George [Takei] about it," said Cho, "and he said that Roddenberry's original intent was that everybody on the bridge of the Enterprise was supposed to represent the entire world. He said that Sulu was supposed to represent the continent of Asia. They didn't have a specific cultural origin for him before the show was cast."
After being cast, Roddenberry had to come up with a specific name for the Asian character. "Gene was looking at a map and saw the name Sulu Sea and it bordered multiple Asian countries, and he thought that this was kind of a Pan-Asian name," explained Cho. "When they came up with a first name, George is Japanese American, so they give him the name Hikaru. But the intent was not really to create a Japanese-specific character. The intent was to create a Pan-Asian character."
Even a Japanese-American character wouldn't be a problem for the Korean-American Cho. "As far as the surname goes and cultural background, I think it's irrelevant," he said. "I think it's more, 'Can you be convincing as an actor?'" But Cho admitted that, "Sometimes you're better off casting someone who is really from that culture because the role calls for an accent that's going to be convincing. I wouldn't take a part that is Japanese from Japan, or a recent Japanese immigrant, because I don't think there is a way that I could do that accent really effectively and convincingly.

Re: Cho On Playing Asian Characters
Roddenberry may have told Takei that story about how Sulu was named, but he actually named the character after Herb Solow ("Inside Star Trek", page 79) - which of course occurred before Takei was hired.

Lots of places to eat and visit in the Coshocton and Millersburg area. Stay on 83 all the way up until it hits the route's conclusion at Millersburg, OH. If you want to get some great Amish cooking, try Boyd & Wurthmans for great Amish cooking that will stuff you. Or you can try Hog Heaven in Dover for great BBQ (to get to Dover, just head east for about 20 miles on 39 after you make it to Millersburg, OH).
This is riding through the valleys and ridge tops of reclaimed strip mining country and the views are great from ridge to ridge. Got done with a n/b trip and wanted to turn around and go back through the other way.
Road Quality
Smooth and in great shape but narrow with oncoming traffic.
Roadside Amenities
Other than a very small cross road town of Otsego which had no services there is nothing between New Concord and Coshocton but that section is only about 22 miles

|Comment: It was alright, nothing special. The turns where there but were mostly long and sweeping, more cruiser oriented in my opinion. The speed limit exists but for the most part there is very little reason to care, just make sure you keep a lookout for slow farm equipment and amish (there is also the occasional hidden drive but they are easily anticipated). The road surface was excellent, well paved and no debris. As far as the view is concerned, I didn't see much other than farms, not that that's a bad thing, but I wouldn't give it 5 stars. All in all, if you're looking for a technical ride, look elsewhere. If you live within half an hour, check it out.

|Comment: This road is better south of I-70 than it is north of I-70. Is also a great connector to numerous other twisty routes. McConnnellsville is a nice stop for lunch or dinner. South of McC the roads get demanding and fun.

The importation of softwood lumber in August was down for the third consecutive quarter to 1.1 million m3, which was a decline of 21 percent from May and 23 percent lower than in August 2011. Canada and Russia are the two dominant suppliers of softwood lumber to China, together accounting for 84 percent of the total imports, with the US, Chile and New Zealand making up most of the remaining import volume.
During the first eight months of this year, Russia, Chile and New Zealand have increased their shipments to China, while volumes from North America have declined. Exports from the US are down as much as 41 percent as compared to the same period in 2011.
In August, the average import value for all softwood lumber imported to China was down nine dollars to $203/m3 from a year ago, according to Customs data. The cost for Russian lumber fell as much as $19/m3, while Canadian average costs were down only five dollars to $200/m3 over the past year. Costs for Canadian lumber have steadily increased from earlier this year and here at a 12 month-high in August.
Chinese softwood log imports have fallen dramatically this year. From January through August, imports from Russia were down 21 percent, and from the US, 31 percent as compared to the same period in 2011. The two other major log-supplying countries, New Zealand and Canada, have shipped practically the same volume this year as last year.
With the reduced demand for logs by the lumber industry in China, log prices have fallen through most of 2012. According to the latest issue of the WRQ, average import softwood log values in the 3Q/12 were down 13 percent from a year ago, and domestic Chinese-fir log prices have fallen about six percent in 12 months.

Electronic Commerce: Software Firm Takes Wholesale Path into U.S
Power, Carol, American Banker
The German software company Brokat has entered the United States with a focus on the wholesale side that is unusual given its success with retail systems in Europe.
Though the company has a market capitalization of $1.2 billion, it approaches the United States with an Internet start-up mentality. And in contrast to the way in which Brokat has established itself as one of Europe's most dynamic vendors to the financial community, particularly on the retail side, it entered this country by focusing on corporate cash management.
"We don't play the card that we're a European vendor," said Stefan Roever, 34, co-founder and chief executive officer of Brokat Infosystems AG.
What counts is that "we have products, clients, and capital" that give Brokat firepower to buy American companies.
"For years it was always the other way around," Mr. Roever said of cross-border acquisitions. "We plan to grow through acquisitions."
Two weeks ago Brokat made its first U.S. deal, adding heft to Brokat Infosystems Inc., a 30-employee subsidiary established last year in Alpharetta, Ga.
The target was Transaction Software Technologies Inc. of Atlanta, a provider of cash management software to 17 of the 30 largest U.S. financial institutions.
The $18.7 million deal would help Brokat diversify from its base in retail banking and brokerage software. Its Twister middleware, which connects front-end applications to existing back-end systems, would unite retail, brokerage, and wholesale systems in a common infrastructure.
Brokat is marshaling forces to compete with Security First Technologies Inc., the largest U.S. provider of Internet banking systems. This Atlanta company, known as S1, said last week that it had agreed to buy Edify Corp. and FICS Group for a combined $1.4 billion.
Just as Brokat turned to TST-with which it had a working alliance-S1 sought out Brussels-based FICS with a wholesale-based rationale.
Brokat and TST pose "the only real competition" to the bulked-up Security First, said Octavio Marenzi, research director at Meridien Research in Newton, Mass. The two companies "in time will compete closely on the wholesale banking side around the world," Mr. Marenzi said.
Brokat intends to buy other U.S. companies and is planning a secondary stock offering to finance the deals. Brokat raised $50 million in an initial offering last September on the Neuer Markt, a subsidiary of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange that lists 100 technology companies.
In the next two or three years, Mr. Roever said, Brokat would like to be on the Nasdaq market. But that depends on developing "a significant U.S. revenue stream," he said.
Mr. Marenzi said Brokat's only chance of gaining a significant U.S. presence would be through acquiring a vendor of Internet banking software. Brokat "needs to go one step further and have a packaged solution," the analyst said. "It will feel pressed to buy something."
Twister software serves 1,600 financial institutions worldwide in 100 installations, some through shared arrangements. It serves more banks with its Internet banking software than any other company.
The middleware lets banks' back-office computers serve customers through alternative channels such as mobile phones, personal computers, smart cards, call centers, or branches.
"We'd like to be regarded as the SAP of the front office," Mr. Roever said, referring to the German company that leads the enterprise resource planning market, serving corporations' administrative needs.
The formation of Brokat began at the end of 1994, and five founders formally launched it in 1995. Its big breakthrough came in 1996 when AOL Bertelsmann, America Online Inc.'s joint venture with the German media giant Bertelsmann AG, hired Brokat to build a banking platform. …

AbstractThis paper examines the rationale of a method of nonstationary processing and analysis, referred to as the Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT), for its application to a recording-based approach in quantifying influences of soil nonlinearity in site response. In particular, this paper first summarizes symptoms of soil nonlinearity shown in earthquake recordings, reviews the Fourier-based approach to characterizing nonlinearity, and offers justifications for the HHT in addressing nonlinearity issues. This study then uses the HHT method to analyze synthetic data and recordings from the 1964 Niigata and 2001 Nisqually earthquakes. In doing so, the HHT-based site response is defined as the ratio of marginal Hilbert amplitude spectra, alternative to the Fourier-based response that is the ratio of Fourier amplitude spectra. With the Fourier-based approach in studies of site response as a reference, this study shows that the alternative HHT-based approach is effective in characterizing soil nonlinearity and nonlinear site response. ?? 2005, Earthquake Engineering Research Institute.

The most viscerally frightening and disturbing homicidal maniac picture since The Silence of the Lambs, Seven is based on an idea that's both gruesome and ingenious. A serial killer forces each of his victims to die by acting out one of the seven deadly sins. The murder scene is then artfully arranged into a grotesque tableau, a graphic illustration of each mortal vice. From the jittery opening credits to the horrifying (and seemingly inescapable) concluding twist, director David Fincher immerses us in a murky urban twilight where everything seems to be rotting, rusting, or molding; the air is cold and heavy with dread. Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt are the detectives who skillfully track down the killer--all the while unaware that he has been closing in on them, as well. Gwyneth Paltrow and Kevin Spacey are also featured, but it is director Fincher and the ominous, overwhelmingly oppressive atmosphere of doom that he creates that are the real stars of the film. It's a terrific date movie--for vampires. --Jim Emerson --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
For fans and filmmakers alike, New Line's Platinum Edition of Seven is one of the most comprehensive DVDs ever released. Four feature-length commentaries accompany the film on Disc 1; perhaps most interesting are the comments of sound designer Ren Klyce and composer Howard Shore, who explain in eloquent detail how their work was created to enhance mood and establish atmosphere to match the visuals. The film's trendsetting title sequence is explored and discussed in exhaustive detail, and a photo gallery demonstrates how meticulous efforts were made to create rich authenticity to the psychology of the film's serial killer. Deleted scenes demonstrate the rigors of the editorial process, and a never-filmed alternate ending is presented in storyboard format. Of particular interest to DVD collectors is a fascinating exploration of the audio remixing and video remastering process, demonstrating the subtleties of digital color and tone manipulation, and proving beyond question that this is the most definitive version of Seven ever released. --Jeff Shannon --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.See all Product Description

Project AWARE
|Protecting Our Ocean Planet – One Dive at a Time
|Legal status
|not for profit incorporation in Australia, UK and USA
Region served
|Dr. Drew Richardson
Director, Global Operations
|Tiffany A. Leite[1]
Project AWARE is a registered nonprofit organization working with volunteer scuba divers. Its currently stated focus is on two issues: "sharks in peril" and marine debris, and it is active in 180 countries.[3]
The Project AWARE Foundation was established in 1989 by the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (PADI).[4][5] By 2008, it had become one of the largest (by geographical coverage) of several 'industry led' environmental organizations, with administration offices in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Switzerland and Japan.[6]
Project AWARE, according to its annual reports, has "mobilized" volunteer efforts,[7] such as beach and reef cleaning,[8][9] coral monitoring,[10] and "Donate as You Dive" campaigns. The organization collects data from volunteers who monitor coral health, and encourages the public to pressure governments for greater action on preservation and conservation efforts through letter writing campaigns.[7] In 2008, Project Aware began working with Reef Check, sharing data about coral reef health.[11]
In 2011, the organization announced a new focus on the removal of marine debris, encouraging volunteer divers from around the world to actively remove trash from waterways.[12][13][14]
Project AWARE's current activities include the giving of several grants, and a major focus on educational, motivational, and promotional work.[15] These activities include maintaining a Facebook page, maintaining a debris clean-up map, providing promotional materials to volunteer organizers of local debris clean-up events, promoting letter-writing campaigns, and joining environmental NGO networks in order to give collective support to member organizations' lobbying efforts.[15] They also give awards to PADI dive shops, often in exchange for fundraising commitments and energy saving measures, such as the 100% AWARE campaign which is awarded to dive shops who pledge to donate $10 for each student they certify through PADI, or a $250 per month flat rate.[16]
BBB Rating[edit]
In 2013, the Project Aware Foundation was given a rating of "standards not met," by the Better Business Bureau's Wise Giving Alliance, due to the low percentage of revenues spent on direct program expenses, as opposed to administrative spending. The Wise Giving Alliance report also noted a lack of budget oversight and a lack of detailed expense reporting.[17]

Actually number seven has only a mathematical importance, as in seven days of a week and seven stars.etc. CHEIRO was an American who went to India and studied Astrology mainly, etc and floated amongst the high classes. He died as a recluse and a very poor man, once he was found out. One may like to read ''TIME IS GOD'' which is the first scientific book on numbers Astrology etc. It is a wonderful book; you can't miss reading it, if you want to share your knowledge in this world. Actually number seven is a revolutionist's number, world's miserest persons were 7 born. Those born on a seven would like to recover clean bandages off a dead body. They calculate money in pennies and if you pay a penny less, they will charge sheet you sorry for the cheating them. I thought it was my duty at this moment to intervene

you are absolutely wrong lovely honey number 7 people are not miser. They can spend the money you can't even imagine. If you have no knowledge about persons and numbers then you have no right to say anything wrong

nice and flattering article…even am born on 7th may 1974….qualities mentioned may be similar or exact also in my case…but lucky number?? sorry..think again dear. Only for those are born on 25th of any month…are considered lucky moneywise and other comforts..and if 25 number meets No.2 as a life number..than they are super lucky especially stardom in movies. Number 16 also makes 7, here, it gives not so pleasant experience. Number 7…medium. but they are pure…and their interpretations are real and unique by nature.

There isn't much I don't like about this cleanser, but I don't think it's anything special either. I think it smells exactly like candy necklaces, which I like. It doesn't foam at all and I don't think it exfoliates much either. It doesn't irritate my skin, but I also don't have sensitive skin. Overall, the only reason I won't repurchase is because I want to use a more gentle cleanser that leaves my skin feeling softer. This one leaves my skin feeling a little dry after using it.

Not a fan of this face wash.....Pros: cruelty free, lathers nicely. Cons: has an unpleasant fragrance, contains parabens and sulfate. Definitely wouldn't purchase this again due to the ingredients and it flared up my Rosacea.

I got this product as a boxing day sale at Sephora so the price was ok. I like the packaging and the name, it's cute, and I like the color of the gel and the smell. Smell like grape gel from the dentist to me, but I like that smell so that doesn't bother me.
However, that's all that I like about this product. I have sensitive skin and this was too harsh for me. The beads were irritating and the product was to harsh, so I used it only once a day instead of my morning and bedtime wash. It lasted a really long time though even if I used it two pumps at a time.
I will not repurchase.

This is a really good cleanser, but perhaps not for sensitive skin. The little beads clean the skin well without stripping it and making it dry. It also smells nice, although I would prefer it not to contain perfume.

I had the jumbo version of this cleanser in my shower for a long time, and never used it on a regular basis. I just never really thought much of it, except I like the fruity smell (like grape candy). My skin was in pretty bad shape after using a PC cleanser, so I put this next to my sink for morning and evening use. First, I have to say that it is bizarre that this is called a foaming face wash, when it actually doesn't foam at all. And I don't really like the beads in it. I'm not sure what they're supposed to do but they don't do much. And worst of all, I suspect that this cleanser made my skin situation worse, or at the very least, it didn't help at all. So back into the shower it went, and if I haven't used it up by the time we move, I'm throwing it in the garbage.

Skin: Combination, Dark, Warm

Mediocre cleanser at best. It smells fabulous and thats pretty much the end of it. Contrary to the name of it, it doesn't foam and barely cleans my face. I have combination skin and I feel like it leaves a light film and my face doesn't feel completely clean . Not worth the ridiculous price.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Normal, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other

Really average cleanser, somewhat drying. I felt it had the same effect as washing with a bar of any regular hand soap. I have the entire Bliss fabulous everyday line for normal skin- the moisturizer, undereye cream, toner, etc.... And none of it really does much of anything, aside from occasionally break me out. I've spoken with other girls at Ulta and they agree. Disappointed, I wanted to love this fun line.

I use this with my clarasonic and I love it. I use oil to take off my eye makeup and this removes the excess oil and all the makeup! It smells really good and leaves your face super clean. I haven't had any issues with it drying out my face either.
Age: 44-55
Skin: Normal, Fair, Not Sure

This is one of my favorite face cleansers. I use it with a a soft face brush once daily and my face feels very clean and soft. The scent is pleasing as well. I haven't broken out once from it. I get the large container and it lasts me 8 months with a once daily cleaning.

It is a busy fishing port with an 18 hole golf course, a cinema, an indoor pool, tennis and squash courts, a good choice of shops and restaurants and a lovely sandy beach at Ganavan Bay.
Travel north to Fort William, at the foot of Ben Nevis, and visit the magnificent mountains of Glencoe, renowned as a climbing and winter sports centre. Visit Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National park.

For lovers of Scottish culture there are events held locally throughout the year. The area has excellent hotels and restaurants, many serving local seafood and other local produce. Treat yourself to a meal at the famous Loch Fyne Oyster Bar and Smokery.
Lochside Cottage, and Lochview Cottage, which are on the outskirts of Furnace village, have great views over Loch Fyne and are ideally situated for trips to Inveraray (9 miles), with its famous castle, bell tower, historic jail, maritime museum, shops and restaurants.

"Lovely house with fabulous views"
Lochview Cottage was very comfortable and had all the equipment we could possible have needed. It was very clean and attractive.The best aspect was the lovely bay window which overlooked Loch Fyne. The area offers lots to do and many attractions are very close to the house. The only disappointment was that, although it was within walking distance of the village, I didn't really want to walk alongside a busy main road which is the route taken by many large timber lorries. In a similar vein, I think the photos should show clearly that there is a road between the house and the lochside.

Utah State football: Aggies can't lose Chuckie Keeton
Logan • Chuckie Keeton isn't selfish with his stats. He sees his passing numbers, his rushing numbers, his touchdowns from last year, and he's quick to give other people credit.
He views the spotlight the same way. If he's going to get noticed by ESPN, Heisman watch lists and football observers across the country, he wants to introduce them to a few of his teammates.
"It's not really all about me, it's about the guys around me," Keeton said last week at media day. "We've got five O-linemen coming back, and I think everyone should know their names. They're great at what they do. Not only do they open up huge holes, they keep me off my butt a lot. I'm very excited about that."
Keeton isn't the only one relieved about the prospect of throwing behind five returning starters in Kyle Whimpey, Kevin Whimpey, Jamie Markosian, Eric Schultz and Tyler Larsen. In fact, there isn't a player who is more integral to the team's success.
Utah State needs its linebackers, its linemen, its receivers to succeed. Every piece is valuable. But in a league dominated by quarterback play six Mountain West passers are on the Manning Award watch list Keeton is an irreplaceable cog for the Aggies.
It's not a pressing danger. With returning experience, a run game that takes off the pressure, and changes in Keeton's own game, chances are good that he'll stay upright. But that particular "what if" lingers in the back of Utah State fans' minds, and the program is working to ease that worry.
"What we've had going has been great," Larsen said. "We know how important he is to this offense. It just gives us, as an O-line, motivation to do our job."
Two seasons ago, when Keeton sprained ligaments in his neck against Hawaii, Utah State sent in Adam Kennedy. The junior college transfer was a surprise sensation, going 4-1 in Keeton's stead.
Kennedy now is competing for a starting job at Arkansas State. Craig Harrison, Jeff Manning, Jordan Brown and Darell Garretson are competing for USU's backup job, but only Harrison has thrown a pass in a college game.
There could be another Kennedy-type in that mix, but no one wants to have to roll the dice twice.
But beyond the Aggies' protection schemes, beyond which players are blocking for him, the most critical adjustments have been by Keeton himself.
The junior said he had a revelation lying on a stretcher after his injury. He realized he had to take fewer risks himself, or else all the blocking in the world would be in vain once he took off from the pocket.
"I had to think of it long-term and kind of unselfishly, because I had to think if I go down, how greatly it affects not just the team but our offense as well," he said. "It's just a mental thing; try not to take as much risk. Yeah, risk and reward go hand-in-hand in the game of football; at the same time, it's kind of like a calculated risk. So really after my injury in Hawaii my freshman year, it was kind of like my wake-up call, it just happened to be in a stretcher."
Keeton now slides more often. He runs out of bounds. Third-and-2 and third-and-1 are pretty similar situations, Keeton said, so the extra yard isn't worth it if you're out for the year. Coach Matt Wells said he was happy with how Keeton handled himself last year, piling up yards without putting himself at too much risk.
He hears calls from the sideline sometimes, telling him to slide or run to the sideline. It's not always coaches. Often, it's teammates.
"They look after me and have my best interests at heart," he said. "At the same time, I need to have my own best interests at heart. Of course that's going to be stay safe."
Going forward, the team is pushing the scenario to the back of their minds. The star quarterback is healthy. The Aggies expect him to build on last year, when he racked up more than 300 yards of offense a game.
Schultz, the team's right tackle, knows if everyone fills their role, that "what if" should fade away.
"We're just out there to do our job. That's always our mindset," he said. "We get our stuff done, and Chuckie gets his stuff done. It's a well-worked machine."
Building a legacy
Junior QB Chuckie Keeton is already rising up the Utah State record book:
• 1st in career completion percentage (65.6 percent)
• 4th in TD passes (38)
• 9th in passing yards (5,485)
• 9th in completions (4,573)
• Holds school single-season records for passing TDs, passing yards, total yards, and completions
