The good news: Director Tobe Hooper has been invited to speak at a screening of Destiny Express, a movie he wrote and directed as a teenager, but that hasn't seen the light of day in decades. And Hooper's fans are ecstatic.
The bad news: Destiny Express proves to be a killer . . . literally. As the death toll mounts, Tobe embarks on a desperate journey to understand the film's thirty-year-old origins—and put an end to the strange epidemic his creation has set in motion.
Featuring the terror, humor, and sly documentary style Hooper devotees remember from such classics as The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Midnight Movie is vintage Tobe Hooper, again demonstrating the director's place as one of the godfathers of modern horror.
Editorial Reviews
"Uses horror tropes with considerable skill and ingenuity...Hooper demonstrates an undeniable talent." —Publishers Weekly
"Tobe Hooper is a Texas original and a great American filmmaker. His novel Midnight Movie is just as insane as I knew it would be. A violent, funny and novel premise (no pun intended.)" —John Landis
"Much like he did in the world of film, Tobe Hooper has brought a fascinating and twisted new vision to the world of horror fiction." – Rob Zombie
"It's catnip for splatterpunk fans...a lecherous and barbarous good time."— Daniel Kraus, Booklist
The creator ofThe Texas Chainsaw Massacretakes to print with a co-authored foray into zombie comic novel territory.
Tobe Hooper, real-lifeauteurof on-screen mayhem and gore, is the protagonist in his own novel, chronicling a plague of "suicide bombers, burning cities,an inordinate number of missing persons, and a new strain of STD."The all-in-good-horror parody begins with Hooper invited to screen his never-seen teenage-filmed first effort,Destiny Express,at the famous South by Southwest Festival in Austin, Texas. Austin happens to be Hooper's home town, he's been offered a generous fee and he's sure to see old friends. Enter a bonanza of bizarre characters. Dude McGee, the corpulent slacker organizing the screening, resides in his mother's basement, has body odor redolent of lunch meat, and purposely mangles Hooper's name. Erick Laughlin is a local film reviewer and sometime musician. Janine Daltrey needs the bucks she'll earn taking tickets at the door, but she refuses to enter the screening venue, a raunchy bar called The Cove. Then there's Janine's sister, Andi, plus assorted meth cooks and tweakers, and Tobe's childhood best friend, Gary Church, who starred inDestinyand then moved to Hollywood for a career chewing scenery in horror flicks. The world begins to turn upside down at the screening when the film somehow releases a virus that infects those present. Andi turns from virginal good girl to a mega-obsessed sexual glutton. Gary returns to "Hell Lay" and morphs into a zombie. Arsonists flame up everywhere. A Homeland Security agent becomes a terrorist. And it's all because of the Game—the virus—transmitted by the never-before-screened film. Thisisn't a straightforward narrative. The frenetic, quick-change-of-scene novel lands on the pages as handwritten notes, copies of e-mails, blog posts, Twitter tweets and first-person recitations from the various characters.
Horror as comedy, bawdy and blue, more yucks than frights.

Fashion designer Vikram Phadnis' directorial will begin this year, if all goes as planned.
"I might start directing my film this year itself. Hopefully, if things go right, it might go on floors this year. But it is too early to talk about it. I am still writing the film," Phadnis told IANS.
The designer will soon showcase a collection inspired by rural India on the runway of the summer-resort edition of Lakme Fashion Week (LFW).
For that, he has partnered with Swades Foundation, an NGO working for the empowerment of rural India.
He says he has researched a lot for the line. He says his inspiration from 'Swades' might reflect in his films too.
"In times to come, I will be directing my film soon but it has nothing to do with Swades. I travelled a lot into the interiors of India where I realised that we have so many reasons to celebrate. Probably this inspiration reflects in my film, I don't know. You never know...I may take a bit of it back home and use it for my film," he added.

Embodiments of the present invention are related to Magnetic Anomaly Detection (MAD) devices and the use thereof.
It is of great importance to be able to detect sub-surface vessels such as submarines. One detection method includes monitoring changes in the magnetic field of a given area. That is, as a submarine moves, it alters the magnitude and direction of Earth's natural geomagnetic field. Although these changes to the geomagnetic field are very small, they are detectable by high precision magnetometers. The use of magnetometers to detect enemy vessels in Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) operations is known as Magnetic Anomaly Detection (MAD), and this is a technique that has been widely used by the world's navies since the days of World War II.
MAD for ASW is usually performed by mounting a high precision magnetometer on the tail of an aircraft, helicopter, or Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The aircraft traverses an area of interest measuring the magnetic field. These measurements are compared to established geomagnetic records. Any magnetic deviation to the established geomagnetic field of the area is then interpreted as the potential presence of an adversary submarine.
Alternatively, MAD for harbor protection is accomplished by mounting magnetometers on buoys that surround the area of interest. These buoys float on the surface and transmit their measurements to some location that performs data fusion to determine if enemy vessels are disturbing the geomagnetic field of the area.
Even though ASW and harbor protection are defensive operations, MAD can be used for offensive operations such as mine warfare. In this case, magnetometers are installed on the mines, and a given mine is triggered if its associated sensor detects substantial deviations to the geomagnetic field.
The vast majority of ASW operations are aircraft based. However, there are several shortcomings to the use of MAD sensors for aircraft mounted ASW operations:
Some disadvantages for the use of MAD for harbor protection include the fact that buoys are big, bulky, and relatively expensive. Therefore, it is extremely difficult, time consuming, and expensive to deploy them. In the case where an operation has to be mounted in an obscure part of the world, the use of big buoys is not an efficient solution.
Finally, some common disadvantages for the use of MAD for ASW, harbor defense, and mine warfare are:
In light of the foregoing, there is a need for a different approach to ASW operations, among other types of operations.
Embodiments of the present invention provide a NanOmagnet-based Magnetic Anomaly Detector (NOMAD) sensor to conduct Magnetic Anomaly Detection (MAD). Each NOMAD sensor preferably incorporates a high precision nanomagnet as a magnetometer inside a convenient modular design. Besides the nanomagnet-based magnetometer, each sensor may incorporate a communications unit with a unique identifier, a buoyancy/anchor unit, and a control unit. These sensors are characterized by their high precision, small size, low unit cost, and negligible power requirements. In addition, these magnetometers, by virtue of their size and other characteristics, can be ruggedized relatively easily as compared to prior art devices. Moreover, NOMAD sensors in accordance with embodiments of the present invention are vector magnetometers, in that they are able to measure both the intensity and the direction of a given magnetic field.
In a particular embodiment of the present invention, a field distributed array of NOMAD sensors are used to assist ASW operations across a wide area of a zone of operations. For instance, an aircraft can deploy hundreds of NOMAD sensors on the battlefield. Some of these sensors may be controlled to sink and anchor to the bottom, while others may be controlled to float at a pre-determined depth. The sensors may also communicate with an Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV), which collects data from respective sensors and fuses that data to form a map of the geomagnetic field in the area. Any disturbance thereafter detected can be reported as the potential presence of an enemy vessel. This ASW approach provides an array of unattended sensors that offers continuous surveillance of an undersea environment at arbitrary depths and oceanic zones. As such, NOMAD sensors address many, if not all, of the above-mentioned disadvantages of traditional MAD methods.
These and other features of the several embodiments of the invention along with their attendant advantages will be more fully appreciated upon a reading of the following detailed description in conjunction with the associated drawings.
As noted, an embodiment of the present invention provides a field distributed array of a plurality of underwater sensors that are used to detect slight changes in magnetic fields caused by passing metallic structures, such as submarines. Each sensor preferably is configured to communicate with a central processing location, directly, or through an intermediary such as an Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV), which then passes raw or aggregated information to a user (person or computing device). This type of distributed sensor system is particularly effective for antisubmarine warfare (ASW) operations across a wide area of a zone of operations. In one possible embodiment, an aircraft deploys hundreds of sensors on the "battlefield" (i.e., in the ocean). Some of the sensors are designed to sink and anchor to the bottom, while others are designed to float at a pre-determined or controllable depth, from which they transmit data about their environs, such that a map of the geomagnetic field in the area can be generated.
More specifically,
The magnetic sensor portion of NMU 110 is preferably comprised of molecular structures that behave as superparamagnets. While there are many nanomagnets with different characteristics, NOMAD sensor 100 preferably operates with a biologically inspired molecular triad, described, for example, in Maeda et al., Chemical compass model of avian magnetoreception, Nature, Vol. 453, May 15, 2008, which is incorporated herein by reference. NMU 110 can also be implemented with any other nanomagnet that satisfies operational functionality, as described later herein. One implementation of NMU 110 may be accomplished using the following single molecule magnet:
A full discussion of the characteristics of such a magnetic material can be found in Baruah et al., Understanding the electronic structure, and vibrational properties of the Fe 8 Br 8 single-molecule magnet, Physical review B 70 214410 (2004) (The American Physical Society), which is also incorporated herein by reference. This molecular triad is relevant because it has been observed that low energy radiation, such as that coming from sunlight, lasers, or light-emitting diodes, transforms the molecular triad into a weak nanomagnet.
The lifetime of such excited nanomagnets has been shown to detect weak magnetic fields, much smaller than 50 micro-Teslas. However, it is believed that these materials can detect magnetic fields in the nano-Tesla or pico-Tesla scales. Low energy excitation of this type of nanomagnet, through biasing or proper choice of dielectric environment, enables these nanomagnets not only to provide increased field strength/sensitivity, but also to provide an indication of the direction of a given magnetic field. That is, magnetic field detection using these materials yields both a scalar value and a direction value. In other words, a vector indicative of the magnetic field can be obtained as an output of an appropriate magneto-electric circuit. To provide a qualitative appreciation of the sensitivity of these molecular compounds, it is conjectured that these types of materials/compounds are used as bio-navigation systems by some migratory avian species.
Precision detection of the field strength and direction of a given magnetic field or magnetic anomaly is one aspect of an embodiment of the present invention. This magnetic field strength and magnetic field direction (referred to also as "NOMAD sensor data 200") is then preferably communicated to a separate location for processing. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a TRU 120 is incorporated into each NOMAD sensor 100 and includes a unique identifier and a means for emitting a distinct signal that communicates the NOMAD sensor data 200.
As shown in
The communication system can work with acoustic or electromagnetic signals, depending on the specific mission of the NOMAD sensors 100. For instance, acoustic communications are relatively easy to accomplish and can be used in defensive operations. That is, even if the adversary can hear a "busy" flow of (possibly encrypted) communications between the NOMAD sensors 100 and the UUV 300, the system may discourage enemy vessels from approaching their zone of operations. On the other hand, for an offensive operation that requires stealthy communications, the NOMAD sensors could, instead, rely on electromagnetic communications using a broadband to hide the information flow.
There are several challenges in underwater acoustic communications. For instance, limited bandwidth and signal dispersion in time and frequency, transmission losses by energy spreading and sound absorption, signal distortion caused by reverberation and multipath propagation, time-varying and location-dependent channel characteristics, and random fluctuations due to the environment.
However, the use of advanced signal processing algorithms allows robust underwater acoustic communications in medium ranges of about 100 Km. Some of these techniques include interference suppression, waveform design, adaptive algorithms, error correction codes, data compression, adaptive Doppler compression, higher order signal constellations, as well as coherent and non-coherent signal modulation.
In any event, relatively long distance communications can be avoided by relying on UUV 300 that is configured to traverse the area of operations 320. The UUV 300 preferably travels fast enough to be able to communicate with all the NOMAD sensors 100 in a relatively short period of time, but slow enough to reduce acoustic effects such as carrier phase variation and motion-induced pulse compression and dilatation.
When stealth communications are required, NOMAD sensors 100 can be deployed with an electromagnetic communications system for TRU 120. Electromagnetic signals are severely limited in the underwater environment, but using broad spectrum signaling, the communications between the NOMAD sensors 100 may remain undetected by adversaries. This is a particularly important issue if the NOMAD sensors 100 are used atop proximity mines.
PS 130 provides power to the several components integrated into each NOMAD sensor 100. Preferably, PS 130 includes rechargeable batteries and appropriate conditioning circuitry to provide the necessary electrical power to the several components of the NOMAD sensor 100.
CU 140 can be any appropriate microprocessor, application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), or other device that can be configured to perform the functions described herein, e.g., operating to capture the NOMAD sensor data 200, optionally store the same in memory 170, and operate in concert with TRU 120 to transmit NOMAD sensor data 200 to UUV 300, or some other location. CU 140 is preferably also configured to control ABS 150, which controls the buoyancy of NOMAD sensor 100.
More specifically, ABS 150 can be used by NOMAD sensor 100 to position itself at different depths to maximize their proximity to a potential target. The depth of a given NOMAD sensor 100 may be controlled by, e.g., UUV 300 via TRU 120. That is, UUV 300 may send signals to NOMAD sensors 100 to control their depths to a predetermined value. In this way, an array of NOMAD sensors 100 can be left to drift with natural ocean currents and be controlled to be at different depths depending on their location at a given time. Of course, CU 140 could be used to control ABS such that the NOMAD sensor 100 sinks and anchors to the bottom of the ocean. In this mode, it is possible to obtain a fixed position of the NOMAD sensor 100 at the bottom of the sea.
As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, NOMAD sensors 100 operating in collaboration with UUV 300 can produce a reliable baseline magnetic map that can then be used to detect intruders. If the magnetometers (as part of NMUs 110) in the sensors have a precision of about 1 nano-Tesla, then each sensor would have a range of about 100 meters. Therefore, it would be necessary to deploy about 50 NOMAD sensors to cover a square mile.
Low power requirements for the NOMAD sensor 100 permit the device to remain operational for days at the time. Furthermore, in a particular embodiment of the present invention, the operational life of the device can be extended significantly by adding a solar cell 160 (shown in
The specific use of the NOMAD sensors 100 described herein depends on the zone of operations. Different strategies are contemplated, depending on whether intended operations are to take place in a littoral zone or in blue water.
The strategy to follow for ASW operations in littoral areas is as follows:
The strategy for operations in blue water is similar to the one for littoral areas. However, in this case the NOMAD sensors 100 use their buoyancy system (ABS 150) to sink to specific depths. The UUV 300 coordinates the depth distribution according to their mission, in order to maximize their proximity to a potential target.
This blue water situation is more complex because of the drifting of the NOMAD sensors 100 makes them traverse regions with different magnetic fields. Also, the relative motion between the emitter and receiver implies more intensive signal processing of the communications. In this case the sensor fusion process is more intensive, but it is still possible to get a fix on a potential target. This is accomplished at the expense of more intense communications between the NOMAD sensors 100 and the UUV 300 or other central or common receiving device.
The advantages of using an array of NOMAD sensors 100 for ASW operations include the following:
Further, although not nearly as flexible of an implementation, each of the NOMAD sensors 100 can be connected, as shown in
Referring again to
Thereafter, periodically, upon request, or upon detection of a change in a magnetic field, the UUV 300 receives data from NOMAD sensors, as indicated by step 406. This data can be in the form similar to that shown in
As shown, at step 408, the data received at the UUV 300 (or some other location such as a surface ship or submarine), is transmitted to a central location for data fusion. That is, the individual pieces information obtained from the each NOMAD sensor is aggregated and processed to generate a map of a magnetic field, as indicated in step 410. Optionally, an alarm can be raised if the processing results in a detected magnetic anomaly, indicative of a possible intruder. It is noted that steps 408 and 410 are shown separately, but aspects of these steps, as well as steps of other functions that may be related to one another, may be combined as appropriate for a given implementation.
The NOMAD sensors 100 described here are particularly suited for:
As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, several advantages are achieved with implementations of embodiments of the present invention, including, but not limited to:
These characteristics of the NOMAD sensor 100 allow it to be part of an array of deployable field distributed sensors used to assist in ASW operations over a large combat zone, either littoral or blue water. Because they are inexpensive, small, and easy to mass produce, an aircraft can deploy hundreds of NOMAD sensors at the time, providing a system of unattended sensors that offer continuous surveillance of the undersea environment at arbitrary depths and oceanic zones across the globe.
The foregoing disclosure of embodiments of the present invention has been presented for purposes of illustration and description. It is not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the precise forms disclosed. Many variations and modifications of the embodiments described herein will be obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art in light of the above disclosure. The scope of the invention is to be defined only by the claims appended hereto, and by their equivalents.

Jones working way back from concussion
By Scott Brown
Jarvis Jones
took part in what the Steelers called an "exercise challenge" Thursday as the starting outside linebacker tries to work his way back from a concussion that he sustained in the Steelers' 19-6 win over the Jets.
Jones, who was listed as a partial participant in practice, is going through concussion protocol after getting diagnosed with the dreaded head injury. Jones has to pass a battery of tests before he gets cleared to suit up Sunday, but the Steelers are hopeful that he will be able to play in the 4:25 p.m. ET game against the Ravens.
"The medical team will [handle] everything on that, but I'm optimistic," Steelers defensive coordinator Dick LeBeau said. "He's pretty good. He has some symptoms of being hit and they watch those things pretty closely."
Jones told Steelers doctors Monday night that he was dealing with lingeringĀheadaches, and that led to the concussion diagnosis Wednesday night. Jones did not practice Wednesday, and Friday will be a critical day for the Steelers' 2013 first-round pick.
Young players who do not practice on Friday usually do not dress for a Sunday game.

Cathedral earns pair of comeback wins
NATCHEZ — The Cathedral Green Wave could have been called the comeback kids in its two wins Saturday afternoon at its summer tournament hosted at Chester Willis Field.
First, Cathedral scored three runs in the bottom of the fifth inning to break a tie ball game en route to a 6-3 win over the Franklin County Bulldogs. Brett Brown went 2-for-2 and Pate Shirley had a double for the Green Wave. Benard Selmon had a triple for the Bulldogs.
In the final game of the day, the Green Wave rallied from an early 5-0 deficit to defeat the Copiah Academy Colonels 6-5 in another six-inning game despite having just one hit in the contest. Cathedral was aided by four Colonel errors. Gabe Smith was the winning pitcher, while Kade Clanton was charged with the loss.
Copiah Academy scored five runs in the top of the first inning, but Thomas Garrity shut the door on the Colonels in the final five innings. The Green Wave scored three runs in the bottom of the fourth inning to get back in the game and used a three-run rally in the bottom of the fifth to take a 6-5 lead.
In other action in the final day of the three-day tournament, Natchez High held on to defeat Adams County Christian School 10-9 and Franklin County responded from its loss by defeating Copiah Academy 16-6.

Wolverine golf chase tightens upPublished 9:21pm Monday, August 27, 2012
SOUTH HAVEN — The race for the Wolverine Conference golf championship got a whole lot tighter Monday morning.
Otsego, Plainwell and Allegan all finished in front of Three Rivers at the South Haven Jamboree held at Hawkshead.
The Wildcats had won the first two jamborees and held a four-point lead over those three teams heading into Monday's event.
Otsego shot 199 to claim first place, while Plainwell shot 202 and Allegan 210. Three Rivers finished fourth with a 215 and had its lead dwindle to just one point over Otsego.
Plainwell is now two points back and Allegan just three headed into a doubleheader Wednesday hosted first by Allegan and then by Otsego.
Vicksburg finished fourth (220), Comstock fifth (220) and Dowagiac sixth (230). Paw Paw and host South Haven rounded out the field.
Plainwell's Darby Wagner picked up another medalist honor as she shot 44 to edge Three Rivers' Holly Hines by a stroke.
Haley Smith shot 53 and Maggie Cripe 57 for the Chieftains, who also got a 55 from Kristyn Turner and a 64 from Kelsey Smith.
Turner improved her score by eight strokes, while Kelsey Smith improved by seven strokes.

Comments about Be Sweet Simply Sweet Satisfaction:
I purchased this yarn based on the fiber contents, having never used this brand before. As described , the yarn is very soft and warm . It knits up quite easily without splitting or pilling. My BFF (a knitting Guru) and I agree this is a wonderful yarn, coming from a relatively unknown manufacturer. I love this yarn and will certainly search for more knitting fibers from this company.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Anyone getting V-Day gifts for the daddy to be? I'm stumped!
V-day gifts for SO
Anyone getting V-Day gifts for the daddy to be? I'm stumped!
My husband and I don't care too much about Valentine's Day, we sometimes get something little like candy or he may or may not get me flowers. We decide to love each other all days of the year ;) But when I was going past the cards at Target yesterday I saw Daddy VDay cards so I think I will get him something from baby!
Married July 2005
Baby #1 Born 06/30/13
I wanted to do something special for my DH cause he has been so wonderful, supportive and understanding with this hormonal rollercoaster I'm on.... I can't decide between getting him a metal mouth piece for his sax or a keyboard he's brought up a couple times. He's the mudically talented one in the relationship and I'm really hoping he passes that on to our daughter :)
We are going out for dinner next week... But it doesn't seem like a big deal this year. He never wants a card or anything. I usually do but this I am thinking I could care less. lol

"In the last 10 years, the power and the knowledge and the science behind biotechnology just skyrocketed," Bill Parker told those attending the Marshall Rotary Club's annual farmer appreciation luncheon at Missouri Valley College.
Parker, who works for Monsanto from his home office in Boonville, talked about Monsanto's shift in focus from developing pesticides and herbicides to developing seeds with built-in biotechnology.
During the last several years, he said, Monsanto has gone from spending up to 90 percent of its research and development funding on chemicals to only 20 percent, with the remaining money funding biotechnology and seed development.
"It's hard to believe it's almost been 10 years since Roundup Ready was introduced," Parker said. "One of the exciting things about this technology is where it's going in the future."
Monsanto is focusing on increasing yields through biotechnology and traditional breeding, and is focusing on seeds that are more tolerant to stresses such as drought, excessive water and cold temperatures, Parker said. He said Monsanto is also trying to develop corn which will use nitrogen more efficiently.
To find the gene or genes that allow plants to grow in less favorable conditions, Monsanto is looking at plants that grow well at cooler temperatures and in wet weather, Parker said. "It's a race at planting time around here," he said. "Is it warm enough? Is it wet enough?"
But along with developing seeds for profit, Monsanto has worked with public universities and other groups to develop Golden Rice, which contains a precursor to vitamin A, Parker said. He said between 100 and 140 million children in the world suffer from vitamin A deficiency, which the World Health Organization lists as the leading cause of preventable blindness in children. Rice is a major staple of many countries around the globe.
Bub Caldwell, who organizes the farmer appreciation luncheon every year, asked if Third World counties are resisting the biotechnology that would help stop the vitamin deficiency common in Asia.
"There's not a whole lot of resistance to that biotechnology in the Third World countries," Parker answered, adding that he thinks the United States is progressing in getting other countries to accept biotechnology products.
In introducing the speaker, Caldwell said that although the agricultural technology company has been the center of some controversy, "Monsanto is without a doubt a big player in the agriculture market."

Teens share a wide range of information about themselves on social media sites;1 indeed the sites themselves are designed to encourage the sharing of information and the expansion of networks. However, few teens embrace a fully public approach to social media. Instead, they take an array of steps to restrict and prune their profiles, and their patterns of reputation management on social media vary greatly according to their gender and network size. These are among the key findings from a new report based on a survey of 802 teens that examines teens' privacy management on social media sites
See also Judy O'Connell's blog post about this here: http://heyjude.wordpress.com/2013/01/23/major-new-pew-report-on-libraries/
"Two Pew Internet Project surveys of teens and adults reveal a decline in blogging among teens and young adults and a modest rise among adults 30 and older. In 2006, 28% of teens ages 12-17 and young adults ages 18-29 were bloggers, but by 2009 the numbers had dropped to 14% of teens and 15% of young adults. During the same period, the percentage of online adults over thirty who were bloggers rose from 7% blogging in 2006 to 11% in 2009. "
This presentation pulls together the latest Pew Internet data about how teens use the internet, their cell phones, and other technology. It explores how the world of digital natives is different from their predecessors.
This presentation contains data about how Baby Boomers use the internet. It charts the rise of broadband, wireless connections, and a variety of internet activities, including e-commerce.

As he was the #4 rated player at any position in the entire nation by Rivals.com, the whole of Missouri Nation let out a collective sigh of relief when heavily-recruited in-state player Sheldon Richardson chose the Tigers — barely — over Miami of Florida this past February.Now, though, those sighs of relief have turned into yet another round of anticipation. And, perhaps, another round of recruiting.According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Richardson failed to qualify academically and will attend a California junior college for the next two seasons in order to get his grades in order. In order to maximize his eligibility at Missouri, the paper reports, Richardson will redshirt this season before playing the College of the Sequoias in 2010.Richardson said he worked on this plan of attack with the Missouri football program, and has every intention of honoring his commitment to the university."I'm not opening up my recruiting: It's still Mizzou," the defensive end/tight end told the paper. "It's going to hold up. Me and (assistant coach Cornell) Ford and (head coach) Gary Pinkel and Coach (Curtis) Allen (in California) planned a year-and-a-half and then I'll be back."Of course, it's very easy to say what one intends to do nearly two years from now. It's quite another, however, to follow through on said actions.Especially when said player, when asked how close he was to signing with the Hurricanes this past February 4, told the reporter that it was "fifty-fifty. It was up in the air."
Four-star recruits reign in first round of NFL draft
A wild and controversy-laden first night of the 2016 NFL draft has long since been put to bed — one college football program may have ongoing and lingering night terrors, though — with the second round set to kick off in less than an hour. Before that, though, it's time to take a quick recruiting look back at that first round.
There were a total of 31 players selected in that first round, with just four coming from non-Power Five programs — quarterback Carson Wentz (North Dakota State, FCS) to the Philadelphia Eagles at No. 2, cornerback William Jackson III (Houston, AAC) to the Cincinnati Bengals at No. 24, quarterback Paxton Lynch (Memphis, AAC) to the Denver Broncos at No. 26, defensive tackle Vernon Butler (Louisiana Tech, Conference USA) to the Carolina Panthers at No. 30. Wentz, as you may have learned during the run-up to the draft, wasn't ranked in 247Sports.com's 2011 composite rankings and received zero scholarship offers from FBS programs, with Central Michigan the only school from that level showing more than mild interest. The other three? They were two-star prospects according to that recruiting service.
Those stars, or lack thereof, though, were the exception rather than the rule.
Of the remaining 27 first-round picks in the 2016 draft, more than half (17) were four-star prospects coming out of high school, again according to 247Sports.com's composite rankings. Of the players selected in the Top 10, seven of them were four-star recruits, with the lone exceptions being Wentz, Florida State cornerback Jalen Ramsey (2013 five-star) and Michigan State offensive tackle Jack Conklin (not rated, zero FBS scholarship offers, began career as walk-on).
Aside from Wentz, Conklin, Jackson III, Lynch and Butler, every other draft pick was at least a three-star recruit coming out of high school. Interestingly, there were nearly as many three-star recruits picked (four) as there were five-stars (five).
Including the No. 1 overall pick from Cal, quarterback Jared Goff, four of the first five selections were four-star prospects. The first five-star selected was Ramsey; the first three-star was Louisville's Sheldon Rankins at No. 12 to the New Orleans Saints.
Below is the entire first round of the 2016 NFL draft, with the draftees corresponding recruiting ranking in parentheses.

Laremy Tunsil: 'I'm just here to talk about the Miami Dolphins'
For those expecting Laremy Tunsil to expound on Thursday night's revelation, you were sorely disappointed.
Friday evening, following a strange hiccup that involved a purported allergic reaction, Tunsil was introduced to the Miami media as the first-round pick of the Dolphins. Not surprisingly, Tunsil was asked about the events of last night, from the gas-mask bong hit to the hacked Instagram account displaying damning text messages that could leave Ole Miss in further NCAA hot water to seemingly acknowledging in the affirmative during a post-draft press conference that he had received money from a Rebels staffer.
Not surprisingly, the sequel, Tunsil wasn't touching last night's developments.
"I'm just here to talk about the Miami Dolphins," Tunsil responded in one variation or another when asked a handful of times about the video and potential NCAA issues.
In the aftermath of the allegations and admission, Ole Miss released a statement in which the university vowed to "aggressively investigate and fully cooperate with the NCAA and the SEC."
UMass chancellor scoffs at talk of disbanding football
This month we've already seen Eastern Michigan emphatically push back against faculty-fueled talk of moving the football program down to the FCS level or disbanding it completely. Now it's a former MAC member doing some pushing of its own on a similar effort.
Thursday, the faculty senate at UMass urged officials at the university to vote on a resolution "to end Division I football (Football Bowl Subdivision) at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and either move to a different division or discontinue NCAA football altogether." That blast served as the latest salvo in a nearly four-year effort by the senate to rid itself and its university of the sport.
As has been the case in previous efforts, they appear to have failed miserably as the motion was defeated by a 2-1 margin. Saying "[t]his is now the third time in my four years that they have brought up a motion and have not succeeded," chancellor Kumble Subbaswamy went on to praise the direction of a program that is now a football independent after leaving the MAC following the 2015 season.
"I think the program is in good shape and (headed) in the right direction," he said. "This was simply a small group of senators who have been carrying on this agenda for some time. And they're not getting the support they need. …
"I can't control what the Faculty Senate does. It's a waste of this important body's time, in my opinion, to keep bringing up this issue. We have lots of issues on the curriculum and we have lots of issues on our future planning and so forth. So I think the academic senate's time should be more wisely spent than debating something over and over again."
Like their former conference counterparts at EMU, UMass has struggled mightily of late. Since becoming full-fledged members of the FBS in 2012, the Minutemen have posted just eight wins versus 40 losses.
Despite those struggles, "we have strong support from the alumni base and our own student body," Subbaswamy said, "which we're going to build even more once we start playing even more games on campus."
FCS LB Ray Lewis III, son of 'Canes legend, charged with sexual assault
A former member of the Miami Hurricanes football program — and the son of a U legend — is facing some rather significant allegations at his current football home.
WMBF-TV in Conway, SC, is reporting that an arrest warrant was issued for Coastal Carolina cornerback Ray Lewis III in connection to claims that he had sexually assaulted two women. The FCS player turned himself into authorities earlier Friday and was charged with third-degree criminal sexual conduct.
The alleged incidents that led to the charges occurred in January. From the television station's report:
On Saturday, January 23, Conway Police officer responded to a local hospital, where the victims told police they were sexually assaulted at an apartment in the 2200 block of Technology Drive, according to a news release from the police department. Detectives were called to the hospital to take over the investigation.
Medical reports, victim statements, witness statements, and lab statements were presented to the solicitor's office, and warrants were obtained for 20-year-old Ray Lewis III.
The arrest warrant alleges that Lewis did engage in sexual battery with an 18-year-old female with the knowledge that the victim was incapacitated and/or physically helpless from the use of drugs and/or alcohol.
The 20-year-old Lewis, the son of UM Hall of Famer Ray Lewis, spent two seasons at his father's alma mater without ever playing a down before transferring to Coastal Carolina in January of 2015. In 2015 as a redshirt sophomore, the younger Lewis played in 12 games for the Chanticleers.
Suffice to say, he has been indefinitely suspended from the football team.
Coastal Carolina, incidentally, will be making the move from the FCS to the FBS level for the 2017 season. It was announced in September of last year that the Chanticleers will join the Sun Belt Conference for football beginning that season.

Another action diorama. This one tries to simulate super speed through the backround art. Firstly, I found several pics on the net that for high speed movement. I collected and modified the pics to be cohesive. I then scanned and printed one of my comic book covers and used it as a base. Yeah, I know the cover should be facing the other way. I figured that out too late. Multiple layers of Modge Podge to give it a glossy look. I have always preferred the metallic looking energy suit Wally West Flash wore. Flash comes from the 2010 DC origins 2 pack. I love the look but hate the articulation. Zoom is a 2009 DC universe wave 1 infinite heroes figure. Both figures are in a running pose aided by wires tied to the ankles from the base bottom.

Jay Crawford and Dana Jacobson, the usual ESPN First Take hosts, are out this week with Riescha and Jesse Palmer in. Palmer actually seemed better at the 1st and 10 desk than Jay, although I hate how they just reiterate their points and aren't allowed to really contibute to the discussion with the analysts.
I almost always agree with Skip Bayless, but him mocking wrestling and claiming he losts respect for Jesse Palmer because he watched it as a kid really irked me. People do not watch wrestling because they think it is real, they watch it as an escape from reality.moreless
