Aside from the kitchen bench, we'd say the entertainment unit is the next busiest piece of furniture in the household. With the integration of tv, movies, music, gaming and online activity, the TV unit has well and truly progressed into a media / entertainment unit.
The storage requirements can differ greatly from household to household which is why our lowline, built in, wall or freestanding entertainment units can all be customised to your exacting requirements. Whether you need a basic television stand or integrated living room furniture we custom make to your needs.
Increasingly, our customers are requesting entertainment wall units in contrast to the cabinet style tv unit. Wall units incorporate cabinets, shelving and panelling to cover a significant wall area, whereas a tv unit is traditionally a long cabinet style incorporating cabinets and/or drawers.
Here are a few options to consider when planning your new unit:
1. Freestanding or built-in?
2. Permanent or relocatable?
Consider whether you want your unit to move with you or if it is to remain as part of the house if/when time comes to sell.
A freestanding unit is easily relocatable.
An entertainment wall cannot be freestanding so this selection would limit the unit to some type of credenza if relocation was required.
A built in is safely anchored to the walls and floor; and safely accommodates above bench height storage
Both types can accommodate ventilation and cabling requirements.
3. List of AV equipment?
We need a list of AV equipment as it must (i) physically fit, (ii) have adequate ventilation to prevent heat malfunction, (iii) be responsive to RC signals within it's location.
The current suite of AV equipment could be: PVR/Foxtel, Apple TV, Modem. These require proper ventilation as they heat up substantially. They are smaller than video / DVD media requirements, which allows the 'media centre' to be contained to a shallow projection from the wall which is great for rooms with limited space. There is often one or two small av equipment cabinets with some open shelving for ornaments / disaplay.
4. Do you require storage/shelving?
We offer an entertainment wall in the context of a slimline modern European style; or as a traditional hutch over base cupboard with extensive book shelving. The slimline version typically has a some floating shelves which can be utilised as book shelves or display shelves. If larger storage space is required then the traditional hutch style entertainment unit may suit better.
5. Cable management requirements?
Cable management is always a concern for people.
Our entertainment wall philosphy is to create a sufficient void behind the unit / panelling so that wires can be concealed but also be accessible. However, the wall panelling option is more expensive than no panelling. In order to conceal wiring you will need an electrician/av guy to run the wires within the existing walls if possible? i.e. stud walls not solid brick. Panelling allows concealed wiring to be achieved with solid brick walls.
6. Ideal viewing height (consider couch/sitting height)?
There is an ideal viewing height that determines sensible TV positioning. We typically work on neutral horizontal gaze being in line with the junction of the top 1/3 and bottom 2/3 of the screen.
It is uncomfortable to hold your neck in an extended position as it (1) requires static contraction of the rear neck/skull base muscles, and (2) can irritate the joints resulting in 'Moviegoers neck'.
You can opt for different positioning, and we would determine this as part of our consultation process with you.
7. Material preferences?
Material preferences can influence the design. Effectively it comes down to matching the available material sizes with what can be delivered into the room and your preferences.
Our most common request is for long bench tops or shelves without joins. We can manufacture a painted item up to 5.4m long. The maximum length a timber veneer is usually available in is 3.6m. But we can factory join and finish something longer.
We prefer a factory join over a site join which is (1) hard to control the level of, (2) can open up over time, (3) is highly visible, (4) is weaker.
If your entertainment unit requires a join, we will discuss this with you during your consultation.
Planera is one of the most progressive entertainment furniture manufacturers in Australia, with a reputation that is at the forefront of contemporary Australian design. Our freestanding or built in units are made from high quality materials and with absolute dedication to the strength and integrity of it being a functioning, high use, long wearing integrated furniture piece in your home.
Take a look through our entertainment gallery or bring in your own inspirations and we will custom build the entertainment unit to perfectly match your home.

To say the number of alarm related apps on the Store does not suffice is highly untrue. There are a great deal of apps of this kind, each offering as many features as possible, including set-it-and-forget type functions and others. But there is always room for improvement and bringing new features with a new app. Such a new app called Smart Alarm Android app brings some smartness in an Android alarm app.
There is no such thing as the perfect app and it is especially true for the kind that sacrifice the usability to integrate as many features as possible. A simple search on the Store will unveil a great number of apps we don't care to use, because the developers ultimately forget what is their apps purpose.
Sleep a little longer than usual or don't be late for work with Smart Alarm Android App ruled by different weather condition.
Smart Alarm aims to be simple and useful at the same time. Its purpose is to predict your needs and provide its features just when most necessary. It can wake you up at different times according to the weather rules you set up for each individual alarm. In case of rain, snow or any other conditions it will wake you up earlier, so you have time to prepare. The interface is very easy to use, providing the means to quickly set each alarm and customize the rules. It is simply one unique alarm app that is worth having. Other features for it are coming in soon.

Northstar Senior Living is the latest senior living provider to create a new residence welcoming to members of the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender communities.
The company's chief operating officer, Steve Kregel, recalls that the path to creating Stonewall Gardens in Palm Springs, Calif., started when his company was approached by two private investors out of Los Angeles who had bought an old hotel near downtown Palm Springs with an eye toward turning it into housing for seniors.
"We looked at it and the community and the first thing I thought of was turning it into an LGBT community," he said, noting that more than half of the Palm Springs neighborhood identifies as LGBT. "The demographics made sense, and we thought this is a good opportunity to start an LGBT friendly community and test the market out. …We talked to many city officials and residents of the area, and they were very supportive." Although Stonewall is marketed for the LGBT community, it's open to any senior, per fair housing law.
The non-profit Equal Rights Center in February published the results of an investigation documenting adverse differential treatment against older same-sex couples seeking housing in senior living communities.
The Many Facets of the 'Greatest Generation'
Kregel notes that many gay senior living residents between 70 and 90 years old are part of a generation that "kept their lifestyle very quiet. …This is a great opportunity where these folks can come in and live in the community and be open about who they are. Many won't have to hide it any more."
SAGE Director of National Field Initiatives Serena Worthington agrees: "It's a generational issue – it was illegal to be gay and previously could have gotten you dismissed from the military, for example. Many members of this generation have experienced repression and discrimination." Both Kregel and Worthington said they believe that as more Baby Boomers move into senior living communities across the country, there will be a greater acceptance of LGBT residents due to a greater acceptance among that generation.
Government Funds LGBT Technical Assistance Resource Center
The center worked with SAGE, or Services & Advocacy for Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual & Transgender Elders to put together the study. SAGE oversees the National Resource Center on LGBT Aging, the country's first technical assistance resource center aimed at improving the quality of services and support offered to this community of older Americans. The resource center was established in 2010 through a $900,000 three-year federal grant from the U.S. Health and Human Services Department. In July, it received another two-year grant to continue to operate and grow. The number of LGBT older adults is expected to double to about 3 million by 2050, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"Overall, I think the diversity conversation is really important right now," Worthington said. "People need to be ready for diversity of religion and ethnic identities too. One in five older adults right now is non-white and by 2030 that's going to be one in three."
A 2012 study from the National Health & Aging Center asked more than 2,500 LGBT adults ranging in age from 50 to 95 to participate in a national study and 66 percent identified senior housing as being the most needed service with about half calling for tailored assisted living communities.
Training Resources for Senior Living Communities
Kregel, who expects the new community to open in September, describes it as a 25-unit "high-end" boutique-style residence with typical amenities found at most senior living communities such as resident engagement programs and dining services. And like orientation for new employees at any professionally managed community, the company provides sensitivity training. "There's really not a whole lot different [at Stonewall] than other communities. The care is similar and we base our activity program on resident interests," he said.
SAGE, which works in concert with 10 other organizations on the national resource center, continually receives requests from cities and states for LGBT cultural competency training and trains individuals to serve as training corps to work with aging providers and others.
To request a training, see the National Resource Center website "request a training" form. The website also allows you to search for organizations that have already been trained.
The Administration for Community Living along with CMS and the resource center also recently released a new online learning tool Building Respect for LGBT Older Adults, designed to raise awareness of the issues faced by LGBT individuals living in long-term care communities. The National Resource Center's most popular guide, A Practice Guide to Creating Welcome Agencies is now available in Spanish, Servicios Inclusivos Para Personas Mayores LGBT.

Is that love you see in her face? Or did she just bite a jalapeno pepper? Believe it or not, the two can look a lot alike.
Strong emotions make our hearts beat faster which gives a nice glow to the face. So does biting a jalapeno pepper. Love, anger, and hate all give us the cherry pink blush to the cheek, so what else can we look for?
Reading emotions in a face is really difficult but there are some clues to help you. Remember that there are no guarantees in the tea-leaf world of reading emotions.
There are more than two dozen expressions in the eyes and eyebrows and they are multiplied by the number of emotions we can feel. Raised brows, open mouth or eyes are usually surprise or pleased; closed down may mean anger or frustration.
Here are some clues to reading a face:
- Emotions can zip across a face faster than a Vette on the 65, so you have to pay attention.
- Look for exaggerated expressions, raised eyebrow, pursed lips, or squinting. You can usually tell a fake smile because it looks glued on and stays there.
- Check the expressions when no one knows you're watching. People let their guard down and show the truth when they think they are alone.
- Compare what you hear with what you see. "I'm fine" with a grimace tells you the words don't say the truth. Just like "I love you" when the eyes glance away leaves a question in the air.
Eye contact can mean extra $$$ sometimes. Strong, direct eye contact in a business situation, like better tips for a server in a restaurant or the other person feeling more willing to help you. Students can improve their relationships with teachers just by using good eye contact.
If it's time to end a relationship, a good way to start is by glancing away and not meeting the other person's gaze. Of course that can also be considered a sign of guilt so be careful how it's used.
Want to have fun? Go to a mall or public place and see how people react when you use strong facial expressions, like a huge smile or pulled down eyebrows and a pout. You'll be surprised at the reactions you get.

UPDATE: "Fault in Our Stars" opened big on Friday and is beating expectations. The $26 million Friday did surprise many and it crushed the opening for "Edge of Tomorrow," which was at $10.2 million.
Tom Cruise hopes tomorrow comes when it means going to his latest movie, "Edge of Tomorrow." But it will certainly be a tissue movie that keeps Cruise from the top.
"Fault in Our Stars" stars two young actors who have already shared screen time together in "Divergent." Shailene Woodley and Ansel Elgort are Hazel and Gus, who fall in love after meeting at a cancer support group. It has already banked $8.2 million from the Thursday showings. That easily beat "Edge of Tomorrow," which pulled in a paltry $1.8 million.
Variety reports that the figure does represent a special event called "Night Before Our Stars." They also noted that it is expected to fetch around $35 million for the weekend. Others had it higher and the studio thinks lower.
In what is already being described as another "Groundhog Day," but with a war angle, "Edge" has William Cage (Cruise) living the same battle over and over again. But, with a catch. As if he is in a video game, the main character can change elements along the way, as if he is building lifelines or points — to get to the next level. The next level here is the next day, and life.
But, perhaps more people said they saw and loved "Groundhog Day" than actually did. Emily Blunt and Bill Paxton also star. What could help it is the idea that it is not a sequel or a superhero film. It may be different enough to stand out, but also may be the perfect movie to simply ignore. Right now, the ignoring part is taking shape.
Now, back to "Fault in Our Stars." It is exactly what one thinks. A Lifetime movie-style film aimed for the heartstrings. Based off the best-seller, it is meant to be a tear-jerker, while being predictable in nature, but it may just work — especially for the younger audiences. If early indicators play a role, it should be a big winner. The book was read by millions and early ticket sales are proving worthy.
This movie will be a huge test for social media. "Fault in Our Stars" is playing big on social media and early sales are pushing it higher and higher. A film that can generate buzz like this is so far paying off.

Matteo Guidicelli is blessed with good projects from ABS-CBN these days, but aside from his mother studio that sharpened his acting and singing skills, the hunk actor is also set to star in one of the episodes of "Shake, Ratlle and Roll XV" to be directed by Perci Intalan for Regal Films. Said report was posted on pep.ph this morning, July 14, 2014. Incidentally, he had just finished his first romance comedy movie titled "Somebody To Love" with Iza Calzado, Carla Abellana and Isabelle Diaz Daza, directed by Joey Javier Reyes.
Aside from his movies with the very talented actresses in the industry, Matteo is also busy answering questions about Sarah Geronimo. In an interview with pep.ph at the sideline of the story conference for the movie "Shake, Rattle and Roll XV" episode "Flight 666," the hunk actor confirmed his happiness for the pop princess admission. Matteo said he was surprised when his girlfriend, Sarah Geronimo, came out on television and revealed her relationship with him.
When asked to reveal his feelings for his girlfriend's admission, Matteo said "It's a good feeling. It feels free. It feels very nice." According to Matteo; Sarah is very nice. She is maturing and learning everything. He also confirmed that he is very much happy now because of Sarah Geronimo. Matteo was asked to reveal his plans for the upcoming 26th birthday of his princess, but based on his statement, it would be impossible for him to have a romantic date with Sarah because of workloads.
Some observers say Matteo and Sarah are now enjoying their nine months old relationship. According to some observers who are following their careers, they became a couple last October, but when you ask the couple to say something about it, they will tell you that you should leave it to them. Meanwhile, the two are busy doing their projects on ABS-CBN separately. Sarah was forced to celebrate her 26th birthday on "ASAP 19" last Sunday to give way for "The Voice Kids."

Bill Parcells retires
Wouldn't that be great?
From the Desk of Coach Cameron
Dear David,
I'm very pleased and excited to be the head coach of the Miami Dolphins.
I have always admired the rich tradition of this organization. Wayne Huizenga is an outstanding owner who is committed to winning and Dolphins fans are among the best in the NFL. I look forward to working with the rest of the staff in fielding a winning team.
It is with much respect for this game and this franchise that I look forward to building on the Miami Dolphins legacy of success. My love for the game started at an early age growing up in Durham, N.C., watching my father coach, and it grew from there. At the young age of 14, I knew I wanted to be a head coach. In high school, I played both football and basketball in Terre Haute, Ind., and then at Indiana University before a football knee injury ended my playing career. I had the good fortune to coach at Michigan for a decade, serve as quarterback coach for the Washington Redskins in 1994, return to my alma mater, IU, as head coach and join the San Diego Chargers in 2002.
Now I have the privilege to lead this prestigious franchise, one that I have admired for a long time. I know that winning is dependent not only on the players and coaches but the support staff around them, including our fans. I know how loyal our fan base is and what a great home-field advantage you have given the Dolphins for so many years. Through teamwork, hard work and your tremendous support as a season ticket holder, I am confident we will be successful.
My wife, Missy, and four children - Tommy, Danny, Christopher and Elizabeth – are excited to make the move to South Florida, taking part in this vibrant community. I look forward to seeing you soon.
With thanks,
Cam Cameron
Head Coach

C'mon he's done as well as he has because he has a QB that stands out and makes the difference in a few games that an average QB might otherwise lose. Its the combination of the two that makes it work.
Now, I'm not really a fan of his. At least in part, its because his team is in Miami's division. But, there's something that just irks me about the whole organization.
And I receently decided that I actually dislike him now, because he's friends with good ole' Nick. Call it guilt by association, but I can't see how anyone can be friends with the Tuscaloser.

Now I understand! Saban knew this was going to happen and was afraid that his buddy (Bellicick) would be the AFC champ and would have free run of the place. And Saban couldn't stand that idea!

We understand only wanting to dip your toes into the whole neon fad, but we didn't expect Steve Madden to take it so literally. Their Taxxi shoes ($90) are certainly eye-catching and on trend - but we fear they tread into clown shoe territory. Hence we ask you, dear readers, where do you draw the line with neon?
If bowling shoes looked this good, I'd bowl more often...
If clown shoes looked this good, I'd have actually followed through with my childhood dreams of going to Clown College.
Pair this with a floral top and straw hat and I'm a dead ringer for my crazy aunt.
Am i going bowling? Those are atrocious...Let's burn them.
these are for women? they look like something that a hipster dude who's trying way too hard would wear to his own wedding.
I think they are super fun. Not to be worn with everyday attire but to jazz up an otherwise boring outfit I'd be game.
Who doesn't want be Lisa Turtle on a trip to The Max?
At first glance, I thought no! But honestly these could be awesome with the right outfit!

Snow days in Iowa may have kept your children home, and your mind racing for ideas to keep them busy. A simple idea that can be a lot of fun is cupcake baking and decorating. This will provide you with a snack as well as a creative outlet to keep someone occupied.
Your baking skills do not have to impressive. Most of us can follow a box mix recipe. If your children are old enough, they can even follow it with your supervision. If they can't follow the recipe on their own, let them add the ingredients one at a time. The enjoyable part of this is that you are together creating masterpieces.
Follow the recipe and bake the cupcakes. After they are cooled, frost with your favorite frosting, or, in order to keep this as simple as possible, open up your favorite tub of store bought frosting. Now the fun begins. If you want to be really fancy, with just a little more effort, you can whip the frosting from the tub. This will give it more volume and make it cover more cupcakes. It is also possible to put the frosting into a decorator bag and pipe the frosting. As ornate as it makes the cupcakes look, it actually takes less time than spreading the frosting. Take the cupcake and squeeze the frosting around the outer edges of the cupcake making the circle smaller and smaller until you get to the middle. Very easy, and very impressive.
If your child can frost without coating everything else in the room, let them have the fun. The best is yet to come. Sprinkles make cupcakes even more special, and most children love to pour on the sprinkles. If you want to be even more creative, check out Family Fun magazine's online cupcake section.
Have a great time making cupcakes and memories.

No. 1 Stanford synchronized swimming defeated UAB on Saturday by a score of 90-61. The Cardinal remained undefeated with their fourth victory of the season.
Stanford swept the top two spots in the trio event with the team of Elizabeth-Anne Markman, Sara Lowe and Courtenay Stewart taking first. The other Cardinal team of Samantha Bongiovanni-Duclos, Melissa Knight and Debbie Chen finished in second place.
The duo event yielded the same results as the trio, with Stanford claiming first and second place. Lowe and Stewart once again teamed up to take the top spot, while Bongiovanni-Duclos and Markman earned a second place finish.
Lowe continued her impressive run as she finished first in the solo event, earning her third first place finish of the competition. She found a way to win while only being able to do two of the figures out of her routine because half of the UAB pool is five feet or shallower.
The Cardinal had to modify their team routine once again because of the lack of pool depth. During the lifts, the team was forced to sit underwater and wait for the next part of the routine, leaving much less content to be judged. In the end, Stanford was able to overcome the home pool advantage of UAB and earn the top spot for the fourth time this season.
"Considering the circumstances, our team did very well," stated head coach Heather Olson. It will be great to have UAB and Wheaton at Stanford on Saturday. I am interested to see how the judges score our routines against UAB when we swim full routines."
The Cardinal return to the Avery Aquatic Center on Saturday, February 17 at 4:00pm as they take on Wheaton College and UAB.

From the effects of cosmetics on the skin to consumer science to subliminal messages in videos and music, the kids of New Castle County had plenty of ideas at the 19th annual Delaware Technical College's science fair.
Jeffrey Wood and Calvin Bangler, both of Hockessin, chose to focus on air foils and drag, thanks to Wood's love of model airplanes.
"Our school (Charter School of Wilmington) requires us to participate, so I thought why not make it enjoyable," Jeffrey said.
The two have been working on their projects since last summer, even going so far as to build a wind tunnel in Calvin's basement to show the effects of drag and wind turbulence on Wood's models.
"We did pretty much all of it over the summer," Calvin said.
Calvin and Jeffrey joined with over 150 students from throughout the county for the fair, to vie for cash prizes, bragging rights, and the ability to move onto the national competition this spring.
Jessica Lavelle and Jennifer West, two fair-skinned 16-year-olds from the Charter School of Wilmington, chose to study the effects of higher number SPF sunscreen versus lower levels, because it's something practical that people need to be aware of.
"We both burn easily, so we're constantly using sunscreen," Jessica said.
The two also were past the nervous point when it comes to the judging, having already resented their project and its findings three times since starting.
Program manager at Delaware Tech Tish Warriner said that the judges are pulled from area businesses and college faculty, with a focus on science-based companies like DuPont.
"We have a lot of DuPont," she said.
The 58 judges are grouped by specialty, Warriner said, with each judge following the same criteria but with a focus on their area of expertise.
"They're all looking at creativity, thoughtfulness, the actual following of the scientific method," Warriner said.
This year, the judges reviewed 123 projects, with each judge seeing roughly 10 to 15 projects in the span of three hours.
Winners at the fair will move on to the regional Delaware Valley Science Fair in Philadelphia in April. Those winners in turn are invited to attend the International Fair, usually held in May, Warriner said.
"We had a student last year from Hockessin, Martin Kurian, move on to the international fair," she said.
Martin took first place again this year, she added, for his project on "Magnetorheological Fluids in Pulsed Magnetic Fields."
"He's actually been accepted into early admittance at Yale," Warriner said. "He's pretty amazing."
Page 2 of 2 - The categories for projects range from simple and obvious to complex and well over the average citizen's head, including Biochemistry/Microbiology/Consumer Science, Computer Science, Earth and Space/Environmental Science and physics, just to name a few.
Warriner said that while some kids are required to participate, as in the case with Charter School of Wilmington, many of them are there simply because they love science.
"They don't even have to be a part of one of the school districts," she said. "We welcome any student with a passion for science."

I used the TopRight setting for my expo_edge setting. On each reboot this setting is non-functional even though it is still set in gconf-editor settings. I can reset things by using gconf-editor to remove the setting and then add the setting back. However, the next boot the setting is again non-functional.
I am unsure what is causing the conflict, but moving the edge to BottomRight enables it to remain functional after a reboot. The BottomRight is normally what I use for my initiate_all scale setting so I would like to keep the expo_edge setting in the TopRight if possible.
update: If I do alt+f2 and unity --replace the setting is lost as well.

Senior Candidates, 2011: Al Wistert
Back in February, we discussed profiling Senior nominees for the 2011 Veteran's selections, and solicited input from all of our great readers. I had hoped to start on the profiles after the draft but that did not happen right away. The two finalists are generally announced in late August, so we will be profiling players over the next month or so for consideration. Today, we start with Al Wistert.
Al Wistert is 89 years old and living in Grants Pass, Oregon. For most of the last forty years, he has had very little buzz around his candidacy for the Pro Football Hall of Fame, but that has changed over the last few years. Last year, he was inducted into the Philadelphia Eagles Hall of Fame along with Randall Cunningham, and there have been online petitions to get him considered as a senior selection for Canton. So, is this a case of a sentimental selection for a living representative of a bygone era, when football was played both ways by players who rarely left the field? Or is Al Wistert an oversight by the Pro Football Hall of Fame that needs to be corrected by the Senior Selection Committee?
Before I get to that answer, a quick aside. When I was researching Al Wistert, I kept running into confusing references of Al Wistert playing for the Philadelphia Eagles the same year as he was playing for the University of Michigan. As it turns out, there were two Al Wisterts, who were brothers, and who played football at the same time. Actually, three Wistert brothers starred at tackle for the University of Michigan. Francis "Whitey" Wistert (born in 1912) played at Michigan from 1931-1933, and also played baseball and was signed by the Cincinnati Reds. Alvin "Moose" Wistert (born in 1915) did not go to college right away, served in World War II, and played at Michigan after the war, when he was already in his thirties. Albert "Ox" Wistert, the Al Wistert at issue here, was the youngest of the three, but played and starred at Michigan from 1940-1942, before the older Alvin Wistert.
Al Wistert was a natural athlete. He never actually played organized football in high school, and his first game of organized football came when he started for the University of Michigan as a sophomore in 1940 against California.
As an NFL rookie, Wistert was a member of the famous "Steagles" team in 1943, which combined the Pittsburgh and Philadelphia franchises for one season due to the war. The following year, his first officially with the Eagles, Wistert was selected first team all-pro for the first time, and he would go on to be selected by an awarding organization at least once in every remaining year in the decade. Judging by the number of awards each season, he was widely considered the best tackle in the game from 1944 to 1948. Before Wistert arrived in Philadelphia, the franchise had never had a winning record. He was a favorite of coach Greasy Neale and was captain of the team, and played in three consecutive NFL championship games from 1947-1949 as captain.
It's difficult to compare Al Wistert to other candidates for senior selection who played after 1950 because he played a very different game as a two way player, where versatility was far more important. From the accounts I can find, he was considered adept on both sides of the ball in both college and the pros, praised for his technique and variety in offensive blocking, and in his ability to make sure tackles and control his area defensively. Offensively, he blocked in front of Steve Van Buren for one of the best rushing attacks of the era, and defensively, he was part of teams that consistently ranked in the top 3 in both passing and rushing rate stats and recorded shutouts in the 1948 and 1949 championship games. The only way I know to assess Wistert's qualifications for the Hall is to compare him to contemporaries at the same position from the two-way era. During Wistert's time, and in the decade before, numerous awarding organizations named all pro teams, usually between 4 and 7 in a given year. They may have had different criteria, so it gives us a broad view of how players were viewed. From 1930 to 1949 (the unlimited substitution rule went into effect in 1950), 37 different tackles were named to at least one first team all pro team by an awarding organization. Here is a summary of all tackles for this two decade period who were named on at least five distinct first team all pros during this period, with the first column representing the total number of first team selections by different organizations, and the second column representing the total number of discrete seasons in which the player had at least one first team selection.
|All Pros
|Years as All Pro
Joe Stydahar, Turk Edwards, Bruiser Kinard and Cal Hubbard, the four men who rank immediately below Wistert on this list, are all enshrined in Canton, and are the only four tackles from this era in the Hall of Fame. Wistert compares more than favorably against the other two way tackles from this two decade period, and clearly separates himself from any other tackle not in Canton. Arguably, by this rough measure of looking at awards, he was the most dominant tackle of this twenty year period, and is in any event, the equal of the other Hall of Famers who were honored long ago.
So why is Wistert still not in the Hall? I suspect it is just that he slipped through the cracks, and if the Hall had been in existence when he retired and he was eligible five years later, he would have been in shortly thereafter. The Pro Football Hall of Fame had its inaugural class in 1963, and was still in its infancy when Wistert was honored by the college football hall of fame in 1968 at about the same time the pro football hall of fame added Stydahar, Kinard, and Edwards. Then, the clear choices among the stars of the late 1950's and early 1960's, who played at a time when the game was hitting greater heights in popularity with television playing a greater role, were reaching eligibility, and those older stars who had not made it in were pushed aside by generations that remembered them less and less with each passing year. You would have to be near eighty years old now to have seen Wistert play, so there are few first hand accounts, and certainly no advanced statistics to rely on. Still, using the awards and how he was perceived at the time, it is pretty clear that Wistert is a glaring omission. He seems like the exact kind of player the Senior Committee should be considering as a strong candidate for inclusion.

Creator Matthew Weiner is giving fans "Mad Men" season 7 spoilers and admits he admires "The Sopranos" finale. The Latin Post reports on March 25 that the creator is planning to split the last season of the show into two parts. Weiner shares that Don Draper will continue to struggle because the drama requires problems in a character's life.
Weiner points out consequences will be an important aspect of the next season of "Mad Men," and fans believe this means characters will face the results of their decisions. The final season will have 14 episodes, but the creator has only finished nine of them. Nevertheless, the writers have a clear plan for how Draper and the rest of the cast will end up.
Season 7 will focus on change that will follow the development of the characters, but Weiner warns that Draper will not have an easy time getting back to his family. The show will delve into the question of Draper being able to change and challenge the notion that it is impossible. Peggy Olson will also be going through changes as she tries to balance her career and personal life.
Weiner's admiration for the season finale of "The Sopranos" does not mean that he is willing to copy the same style for "Mad Men." Instead, he seems to be drawing inspiration from the unusual ending that shocked and annoyed viewers, so he can create his own version that will stay in people's memories.

The Summer Blockbuster Film Dead at 38: 1975-2013
By DHT
HOLLYWOOD – Providing more evidence that some kind of deadly combination of mercury and lead makeup have finally taken their toll on the once-respected Johnny Depp, The Lone Ranger was released to terrible reviews and even more disappointing box-office results, making it America's least profitable exploitation of Natives.
After Earth fueled further fire to the heartbreaking fact that Will Smith is a douche, The Hangover III happened as dictated by all signed legal documents, and Ryan Reynolds played a talking snail in Turbo and Will Smith in R.I.P.D.
The Rap Insider confidently announces that the summer blockbuster film, born screaming into this world in 1975 in some flick about a beach and a shark, died a slow shambling and expensive death in 2013. Time of death was determined to be when Independence Day director Roland Emmerich sensed a less-than-usually-engorged erection during his third cinematic destruction of the White House in White House Down.
"I don't understand, usually it's much harder," he whimpered with his hands down his pants in a darkened theater.
Moments before publishing, TRI scooped reports by reading other news outlets that Sony is planning a 300 million dollar adaptation of Dr. Seuss's One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish, Warner Brothers is to develop iPhone as a feature length film starring Cate Blanchett in the titular role as the white iPhone, with a script by Dan Fogelman.
Charlizie Theron is in talks to play Siri.
Finally, a multi-studio effort is underway to produce Pile of Money, which will display 800 millions dollars worth of budget in marketing, social media awareness, 3D IMAX screenings, cross-promotional efforts with the National Guard, script rewrites and contract buy-outs. No plot, director or star is yet attached. Deadline reports it is already 300 million dollars in debt.

We use our passion and industry expertise to change lives and impact businesses.
The US medical device and supply manufacturing industry includes about 11,000 companies with combined annual revenue of about $85 billion. The industry is concentrated: the 50 largest companies account for about 60 percent of revenue. Major products include surgical and medical instruments (about 45 percent of industry revenue) and surgical appliances and supplies (about 40 percent). The remaining revenue comes from other sources including lab equipment and furniture, diagnostic and anesthetic equipment; and dental equipment and supplies.
After maintaining growth during the devastating recession, the medical device and supply manufacturing and wholesale industry will continue to expand over the next five years. Thirty years from now, 50 % of the worldwide population will be over the age of 65. This population shift is causing the Medical Device and Supply industry to take a new approach to healthcare – prevention.

Softbank confirms $215 iPhone in Japan
As we had earlier reported, Softbank's official iPhone pricing in Japan will bring the device near the US price of $199, as the telco subsidizes the phone bills of its subscribers.
The Softbank iPhone price only goes near $199, at $215, on July 11th at the same time as the other countries that are included on the first official worldwide rollout.
The iPhone 3G is going to be released simultaneously on July 11th in 22 countries, and Japan is one of them. So far, only Softbank has been confirmed as a carrier for the iPhone in Japan, although we know that NTT DoCoMo is also vying for rights to market the handset.
The price of the iPhone in Japan through Softbank will now be 23,040 Yen (or $215) for the 8GB model, and about $320 for the 16GB model.

ASK IRA: Has the Heat guaranteed too many contracts?
Q: Are all minimum-salary contracts guaranteed? What happens if after Heat has all 15 players under contract a better minimum-salary player wishes to join the Heat? — Robert.
A: The contracts offered to this point by the Heat are guaranteed, with the exception of the deals for Shavlik Randolph and Kenny Hasbrouck. But, yes, a team can opt to eat such guaranteed money and sign a replacement player into such a slot. It is not unusual for teams to go into training camp with more than 15 guaranteed contracts. While teams are limited to 15-player regular-season rosters, they can carry up to 20 until the start of the season.
Q: Do you think U.D. will still be a team captain? — Taj.
A: I think Wade and Udonis will be the team captains, based on their tenures. The Heat owes Haslem at least that much, after he took a larger pay-percentage cut than any other player on the roster.
Q: Do we really want to see some developmental player sitting at the end of this bench next season? This team needs veterans. — Fil.
A: No, this team needs chemistry, and if a team with Wade, LeBron and Bosh needs to utilize its 14th and 15th men, then something is terribly wrong.
Q: Hello Ira, would the Heat consider wings such as Rodney Carney, Damien Wilkins, Jarvis Hayes or Von Wafer? Thanks. — Daryl.
A: Sure, but possibly not with guaranteed money. It could come down to Pat Riley finding out how hungry veterans are for a final roster spot on this team. It might be the best way to stage a competitive camp. Remember, Carlos Arroyo signed on a year ago without a guarantee.
Q: Assuming the Heat choose to start the Three Kings at their natural positions, as opposed to a hybrid lineup, who do you think has the upper edge to start at point guard and center? — D.H.
A: I think the Heat want a shooter at point guard, which would give Mario Chalmers the edge, provided he makes shots. I think Joel Anthony has the edge at center, because of his defensive presence.

"We handled Loren's situation (being ejected from the Cal game) internally. We are going to do everything that we can to turn a situation that wasn't too great into a positive for Loren. I think that he said all the right things in the paper last night, and he has talked with the team. As much as I didn't like the actions, I think it is pretty much the result of the culmination of a whole lot of things. He has had a fall that has been extremely frustrating. He has really been through the ringer in terms of the suspension. I thought the kid was playing pretty well in the first half, so what we need to do is build on that. He had a good practice today, and I think that we have handled it the right way. All of us, including Coach Olson, are going to put our faith in Loren that this has been a learning experience. He is going to play, and he will start.
On playing Stanford:
"I hope that we're, on one level, at a higher emotional level. I know who's here, and you know who's here. Now that we are getting further away from the situation, I would suspect that we are going to be on the floor with the kind of emotion that we should have playing Stanford. I know they are going to have the emotion that they should playing Arizona.
"Our position is a little different than theirs. I don't know if the term is struggled, but we have lost a couple of games here in December. I think that tomorrow's game included and it is not a game in terms of life or death to where you finish in the Pac(-10) but we are in a position where we want to get better every game. It is a big game. They know it, we know it.
"They are balanced. Like us, they have a lot of older kids. (Casey) Jacobson is good, the Collins' (Jarron and Jason) are good. They had five guys in double figures last night. They have depth, and they have experience and are older. It is like when we have had good teams here. When you have players that have been in the system for two or three years, they know how to run their stuff. When you have veteran players in the system, that always helps.
On playing Stanford recently:
"The year with (Mike) Bibby and those guys (1998), I think that we were a little bit of a loosy-goosy and we caught them and played well. Last year, if you want me to look back and say that I was a little surprised winning up there, I was. The game down here was for the Pac-10 Championship. It was a five or six point game, and it was really a great game. They are an awful good team.
"When our guys play Stanford, they know who it is, just like they know who we are. I don't know that it's been any secret. Their guys get ready to play us just like we get ready for them. (Two) years ago, they smashed us.
We went up there, and they blitzed us. There have been a lot of very good games. I guess that is why we are playing at 11 (a.m.) tomorrow. Someone thought that this was going to be a good game to be on (television)."

Former Patriot Drew Bledsoe shares his views on retirement and recommends that the recently retired Brett Favre find something to occupy his time.
Report: NFL paid Goodell over $31 million in 2015
Report: NFL paid Goodell over $31 million in 2015
Roger Goodell's salary has reportedly fallen in recent years, but he's still paid handsomely for his work as NFL commissioner.
According to the Associated Press, Goodell earned just over $31 million for 2015. That's a seven percent decrease from the $34 million he received for 2014.
The NFL's last tax return served as an indicator of Goodell's 2015 salary. The league's tax returns no longer have to be made public since it has changed its status from exempt to taxable, per the AP.
The next-highest paid executive at the NFL offices on Park Avenue? General counsel Jeff Pash, one of the most prominent players in the Deflategate sage, who earned $6.5 million in 2015, down from $7.5 million in 2014.
Richardson suspended one game for violating personal conduct policy
Richardson suspended one game for violating personal conduct policy
The NFL announced this week that Jets defensive lineman Sheldon Richardson has been suspended without pay for Week 1 of the 2016 regular season for violating the league's personal conduct policy.
Richardson will miss his team's season-opener against the Bengals and will be eligible to return to the Jets active roster on Sep. 12. The Jets and the Patriots meet for the first of their two division games on Nov. 27.
Richardson responded to the news of suspension on Thursday.
So the league has sent down there decision I have to live with it I'm grateful it could have been more but this is overspill from a silly offseason on my part but I've grown from it been pass it....I'm still smiling like its draft day....to my family and fans I love ya #whatdontkillyoumakesyoustronger #trulyblessed and #highlyfavored #positivevibes GOD BLESS!!!!
In July of 2015, Richardson led police on a high-speed chase -- hitting speeds as high as 143 miles per hour -- in suburban St. Louis. Police reported a strong odor of marijuana in the car and inside found a loaded, semiautomatic handgun that was possessed legally. Richardson had a 12-year-old relative riding with him in his Bentley at the time of the incident.
In January, Richardson pleaded guilty to resisting arrest. Though he avoided jail time, he was sentenced to two years probation and 100 hours of community service.
Richardson has been one of the league's best defensive linemen since entering the league as a first-rounder in 2013. He served a four-game suspension to start last season after violating the league's substance abuse policy.
PFF: Collins is 'the best linebacker in the AFC'
PFF: Collins is 'the best linebacker in the AFC'
He may have been left off of the NFL Network's Top 100 list, but Jamie Collins isn't flying under the radar at Pro Football Focus.
On PFF's list of the top 10 defensive players in the AFC, the Patriots linebacker came in at No. 8 and was given the description as the top linebacker in the conference.
Collins' versatility within the confines of the Patriots defense is what makes him so valuable, PFF's John Kosko explains:
"He doesn't dominate in any one role like Luke Kuechly does in pass coverage and run defense, but he is very good at all facets of the game. Collins has the athleticism to cover TEs and HBs effectively, the explosiveness to rush the passer, and the size and strength to defend the run.
"The former Southern Mississippi linebacker is arguably the most versatile player in the NFL, and allows Bill Belichick to employ a defense that confuses opposing quarterbacks. With the only knock against Collins being his 34 missed tackles the past two seasons, the Patriot is the best linebacker in the AFC."
Collins graded out as the No. 5 linebacker in football last year, per PFF's numbers. He ranked behind only Carolina's Luke Kuechly, Minnesota's Anthony Barr, Indianapolis' Jerrell Freeman and Seattle's KJ Wright.
Fellow Patriots linebacker Dont'a Hightower earned the 10th-highest grade for linebackers last season, according to PFF -- a grade that likely would have been higher had his snap-count (602 in 2015) approached that of Collins (792).
While Collins is a rare physical talent, the argument could be made that it's Hightower who is the more important player to the Patriots defense given his prowess as a pass-rusher and run-defender. He also has myriad responsibilities as the extension of the team's coaching staff in the defensive huddle.
In order to slow down opposing passing games, many Patriots defensive packages employ either five or six defensive backs and just two linebackers. Lucky for them, they have two of the best in the conference.
Both Collins and Hightower are entering contract years this year, and finding a way to keep them in-house figures to be near the top of the list of priorities for the Patriots front office.

From Terrible to Terrific: A Rocking Chair Story
"This dilapidated, layers upon layers of paint, broken arm, broken spindles, broken seat, broken back rocking chair was the rocking chair my Hey Bud (great grandfather) went to buy with his father when he was just a boy," explains Jenna from Rain on a Tin Roof. As you can see, it was in terrible condition. Someone with no sentimental connection to it would have probably sent this rocker to the curb.

With the "granddaddy of them all" quickly approaching, many are wondering what the matches for WWE "WrestleMania XXX" in New Orleans will be. Fans have their ideas and dreams, but so do the editors over at WWE.com. On Feb. 12, 2014, the editors put together the eight dream matches they'd like to see at "WrestleMania XXX," and it appears they're kind of trolling the fans.
The big event will officially take place on Apr. 6, 2014, and nothing is set in stone as of yet. WWE knows what the fans want, but the "Royal Rumble" was proof that they don't always give them what they want.
SEE: Hulk Hogan and Jimmy Hart confirmed to return to WWE before "WrestleMania XXX"
That is why it seems that the editors at WWE appear to be playing games with the fans with their dream matches "WrestleMania XXX."
Not only do they throw Jake "The Snake" Roberts into a match, but the editors also dream of having Daniel Bryan in the main event. Could any of these come true? It is possible, but the dream matches are some ultimately epic clashes that any wrestling fan would love to see happen.
Here are the eight dream matches:
- Intercontinental Championship Match: Big E (c) vs. Roman Reigns
- Jake "The Snake" Roberts vs. Dean Ambrose
- Money in the Bank Ladder Match: Big Show vs. Jack Swagger vs. Bray Wyatt vs. Cesaro vs. Dolph Ziggler, vs. Kofi Kingston vs. The Miz vs. Damien Sandow vs. Seth Rollins vs. Mark Henry
- Divas Championship Match: AJ Lee vs. Stephanie McMahon
- Last Man Standing Match: Batista vs. Brock Lesnar
- The Undertaker vs. John Cena
- Attitude Era Gimmick Battle Royal
- WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match: Randy Orton (c) vs. Daniel Bryan vs. Triple H
For those wondering, the WWE editors put these "Attitude Era" superstars into the battle royal match:
- The Godfather
- Val Venis
- The Headbangers
- Steve Blackman
- Gangrel
- Viscera
- Mideon
- Kai En Tai
- Kurrgan
- The Mean Street Posse
- Hardcore Holly
- The Blue Meanie

Sammie the Snake and KlonopinMarch 29th, 2011 | 2 Comments
We've heard this story in a few places, so we're starting to believe it's true. According to Weekly World News, a huge three-foot Cobra snake escaped from the Bronx Zoo and is now slithering around the streets of the Bronx. We can't even look at the photo without reaching for Klonopin (then again, we can't look at ourselves without doing that). Could you imagine finding a three-foot Cobra in your apartment or home? We wouldn't know what to do especially since we never learned the flute, nor are we particularly charming.
Gina has been especially terrified of snakes throughout her life. "Pat, I just can't stand them. Give me a good spider or scorpion any day of the week and I'm fine."
As a young girl, she couldn't even watch Sesame Street. "Mommy turn it off! Turn it off! He's on again!
"Gina Frances calm down, that's just Sammie the Snake. He's confessed he's harmless; he just looks like the letter S."
Truth be told, she gets a panic attack whenever she sees one on TV or in the woods (where she sometimes finds herself chasing her golf ball).
What kinds of things make you panic?
OH Yeah,,,, that looks nasty, creepy,, and I wanna run,,, HATE snakes!!! I can't even pick up a worm let alone one of those monsters on the loose!! YIKES!!
Comment by Sandra Compton — March 29, 2011 @ 1:21 pm
I had a pet snake as a child, pushed him around in my doll carriage with a blanket over him. Also let him ride around my waist with my shirt tucked in. Still, I don't like to be SURPRISED by a snake.

On Saturday, March 22, the City of Wilmington will hold the Green Spring Carnival at Halyburton Park from 11 a.m.-4 p.m. The event is designed to encourage recycling at all ages and will include games, activities, exhibits from local businesses and a recycled art gallery featuring local artists and UNCW students.
One of the ways more recycling will be encouraged at city parks is through more than 20 large recycling containers that have recently been placed at Halyburton and Empie parks, the Municipal Golf Course, Legion Stadium and the Greenfield Lake Amphitheater. The containers were purchased through a grant from NC Department of Environment and Natural Resources.
Over the last several months, a poster contest was held at area schools and winning entries that will be displayed on the park recycling containers will be announced by Wilmington Mayor Bill Saffo at 1 p.m. This event is free and open to the public.

Can someone please help me align the two columns such that they start at the same vertical position? Compiling the code below results in the second column starting higher than the first and ending lower than the first. Why is that happening?
Thanks. Here is the code, that I am trying to use and the use of option [t] in the tabular environment does not seem to help.
Thanks very much.
Try another approach with the multicol package.
The paralist package may be an alternative.

Thanks very much Thorsten. That's strange. The reason I posed this question was that multicol gave me exactly the same problem I asked about when I tried to use it with the exam package. I tried to do the following:
Please do not mind the stupid text in this code. Hence, I tried to use the tabular environment, thinking that would give me more control over the column alignment. Especially if I want to include small figures in two columns (where I have read that multicol runs into problems). Your suggestion works very well for the example given in the above post. Is it possible to do what I need in the tabular environment also?
Thanks very much.
Is column alignment in tables really difficult? I want the columns to start at the same height in a tabular environment. Would appreciate any help.
