We all know them (get it?). The "know it all." The person that no matter what the conversation, they know. Now matter when it happened, they know. No matter what the topic is, they know.
This person is different than a "one-upper." The one-upper is a level that is far beyond a know it all. The one-upper not only knows, but can do better, That's a whole different ball game.
In health and fitness, it is extremely valuable to have a vast array of knowledge and education. However, and increasing problem that is being found within the health industry is the "know-it-all." Chiropractors that are turning into nutritionists; Weightlifting coaches that become gymnastic experts; or that guy who was the captain of his high school football team. Yeah, he always knows everything.
Before you get your panties in a bunch, hear me out. I'll even put myself into the mix. I am both a CrossFit coach, and a nutritionist. I consider myself in two different areas of health and fitness: exercise. However, when I am in one role ,I am in that role. If I am coaching a CrossFit class, and someone asks me a nutrition question, or if I see it is relevant to the conversation, then by all means let's talk food. I understand within health and fitness that lines get blurred, and often practices get overlapped. But don't put yourself into a situation where clients are going to their physical therapist because their dog has a headache.
If you are a nutritionist, be the best damn nutritionist around. If you are a chiropractor, let your work speak for itself as the best chiropractor around. Gymnastics coaches should be the go-to for anything that involves: GYMNASTICS. And for heaven's sake, if you played a sport in high school or college, and you are no longer in high school or college, MOVE ON.
Read it, live it. Be YOU, don't be everything.

EL SEGUNDO The first time Jordan Farmar walked into the Lakers' training facility this summer, it was like coming home. The familiar gym hadn't changed. There were the championship banners on the walls, purple and gold on the floor and Kobe Bryant in the house.
Only thing truly different from the last time Farmar was here were some of the faces. Mike D'Antoni was coach, not Phil Jackson. Pau Gasol still was around, but most of the other players from the Lakers' back-to-back championship teams were gone.
Despite the changes, Farmar called it "cool" to be back.
"It was very familiar when I came in here; it felt like home," Farmar said. "I was just excited to be back. It's been a great couple days, and I'm looking forward to the rest of it."
Jordan left money behind in Turkey, where he spent last season, to return to Los Angeles, his hometown and sight of his greatest basketball accomplishments. He was Derek Fisher's backup on the Lakers 2009 and 2010 NBA title teams with little hope for moving into a starting role.
This go-around with the Lakers has a familiar feel in the fact Farmar finds himself coming off the bench. He and Steve Blake are expected to back up Steve Nash, 39, who will be playing fewer minutes.
"This is a great opportunity," the former UCLA star said. "I talked to Mike and Mitch (Kupchak, general manager) and saw what I could bring. I had a lot of opportunity in front of me no matter what the depth chart said.
"I'm looking forward to that challenge."
A free agent, Farmar left the Lakers after the 2010 season and agreed to a three-year, $12 million contract with the New Jersey Nets. He stayed for two seasons before joining Maccabi Tel Aviv to wait out the 2011 NBA lockout.
"Before when I was here, it was not what I wanted," Farmar said. "I wanted room to grow. After four years in the NBA, I didn't want continue to do the same thing. I wanted to see what was out there and expand my game."
While Farmar was expanding his horizons, he never lost sight of the Lakers. He said he stayed up every night while overseas watching games into the early morning hours, eventually realizing that's where he belonged.
D'Antoni said the team "looked good" in its second scrimmage of camp, especially Gasol.
Gasol had offseason surgery on his chronically bad knees to help his tendonosis but has not missed a practice during the first five days of training camp.
"Pau is way ahead of where I thought he would be coming back from surgery," D'Antoni said. "He's playing really well. I think he feels good. He looks good. Coming off an injury, he could be sitting out half a practice or skip a practice, but he's done everything all the time. And has been sharp, he's been really sharp."
Even Bryant made an appearance on the court. D'Antoni said he put up some set shots and did a little light jogging.
"He just keeps progressing," D'Antoni said. "He just keeps getting better."

Missing San Diego Teenager Rescued in Idaho [Updated]
After her kidnapper was shot and killed by the FBI.
A week-long hunt for missing 16-year-old Hannah Anderson ended on Saturday night, when the San Diego teenager was rescued after FBI Special Agent Jason Pack shot and killed her abductor, family friend James Lee DiMaggio, in remote area outside of Cascade, Idaho. DiMaggio is also suspected of killing Anderson's mother, Christina Anderson, and 8-year-old brother Ethan a week ago on Sunday. Their bodies were found in his burned down house.
At least 200 people (150 of them "highly trained, enhanced SWAT teams, law enforcement" and FBI officials) worked to bring Anderson home safely. The teams were flown to Morehead Lake — the largest roadless area in the lower 48 states — Saturday morning, and took to the wilderness on foot, on horseback, and via helicopter after DiMaggio's blue Nissan Versa was discovered 60 miles northeast of Cascade. (Ada County sheriff's spokeswoman Andrea Dearden called it "the last place you can go before you hit the wilderness and stop driving.") The LA Times reports that the special forces waited until DiMaggio — who'd been considered armed and dangerous, and was falsely thought to be carrying explosives in his car — and Anderson separated before moving in for the rescue. So far, there aren't many details about how exactly DiMaggio died.
San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore said that Anderson "appears well" while other reports confirmed "the girl did not appear to have significant physical injuries" when checking out of an Idaho hospital early Sunday. She'll be reunited her father Rhett Anderson today, who told CNN via text, "I am nervous excited saddened 4 my wife and son and worried what my daughter has been through."
Update: While details about DiMaggio's end are still scarce, sources said that authorities observed DiMaggio moving some wood and other materials around, "possibly to fortify his position or make the hideout harder to see from the air." He and Anderson were found with camping gear, including a blue tent.

The notion of coaching students can be helpful in designing reflection. Schön (1987, 17) notes that students learn skills by practicing them. He suggests solving real-world problems competently requires the artistry of problem-framing, implementation and improvisation in addition to technical expertise. He suggests that the coaching process can help students learn "the artistry of practice."
Under coaching, an experienced individual uses a combination of tips, advice and examples to help students achieve success. Examples of how the notion of coaching can guide the design of reflection are given below:
Schön visualizes the coaching process as a "ladder of reflection" where students and faculty reflect on their actions or prior reflections as well as on each other's actions/reflections. This type of a coaching process calls for frequent reflection and timely feedback.
Viewing reflection in terms of coaching can help faculty structure the reflection process. For example, faculty could start with more open-ended prompts and provide additional structure based on student reflections.
Issues of context are extremely important in developing effective coaching strategies. If teams of students are involved in diverse service activities, faculty could organize coaching sessions for teams. This approach can enhance learning by allowing students to share ideas and experiences. At the same time students may feel more comfortable than in a large class setting.
It may also be possible to involve more experienced students in the coaching process. If faculty can identify opportunities for experienced students to continue their service involvement beyond the course (e.g. through a student organization, work study, or capstone course) then the senior students could be encouraged to coach less experienced students. More experienced students can develop communication and leadership skills while simultaneously providing greater support for less experienced students.
Section two suggested that the intellectual developmental level of students is a key consideration in balancing challenge and support during reflection. Since coaching is a means of providing support and guidance during problem-solving, that discussion applies to the design of coaching. For example, a model of the problem-solving process can help faculty structure coaching. Thus students may need coaching in framing problems, identifying alternatives, etc.

Four Floridians have died from a rare mosquito borne illness in the past six weeks. Eastern Equine Encephalitis is passed from birds to humans through mosquitoes. One in three people who contract the disease die, and there's no cure.
Camp Bulloch lost his friend Wade Griffin last month to a rare mosquito borne illness. "Wade was one of a kind and just a genuinely good hard working person."
Wade was 50 years old, a painter and a surfer. Last month he contracted Encephalitis, a disease transmitted from mosquitoes to humans. "He was bitten on Tuesday evening just as best as we can tell, Friday he was in the emergency room and the following Friday he passed away."
Wade was living in Jacksonville, but health officials believe he contracted Encephalitis while visiting Tallahassee. Besides Wade three other Floridians have died from the mosquito borne illness in the past month and a half.
Two of the victims were from Hillsborough County and one lived in Wakulla County southwest of Tallahassee.
The disease is carried by mosquito living within five miles of swampy areas. There is no cure for Encephalitis, that's why Dr. Carina Blackmore says the Department of Health is asking Floridians to take extra precautions like wearing bug repellent and staying indoors at dusk and dawn.
"It's important to get rid of standing water in the yard and it's also important to dress so that mosquitoes can't get through the clothing you are wearing."
They're precautions Camp and his family now follow daily. "I make sure that myself and my children, my wife and everybody's covered now because it's something that could happen to anybody at anytime."
There are only 10 cases of Encephalitis reported nationwide every year. Four is the average in Florida, but the dangerous season isn't over until the end of September. People who have contracted Encephalitic show flu-like symptoms and they normally surface between four and 10 days of being bitten.

Dear Cliff:
My wife and I live in Boise, Idaho, and we are very proud to be atheists. We will raise our unborn children to be atheists, and we love to gather with other fellow atheists. I just saw the address to your website on the American Atheists Newsletter (sent out via email), and I haven't even begun to break the tip of the iceberg yet!
We are members of the Idaho Atheists, and I noticed that Bret Blakeslee had written you twice about the group. We have been hanging out with the Idaho Atheists since about July 2001, but just became full-fledged members in March of this year. We are currently involved with producing a local atheist TV show to be aired on the Public Access Channel 11 station here in town.
We just want to compliment you on your endeavors, and we hope you are able to be self-sufficient soon!
Best wishes,

As you probably know, I am somewhat critical of the entire concept of atheist groups, but everything I've heard about that Idaho group always causes me to have second thoughts about second-guessing what I once thought might have been second-class!

To see Medina Schools' request for dismissal of defamation allegations, click here.
To see a list of the dates, click here.
Attorneys representing Medina Schools board members hope to get half of a lawsuit filed by Superintendent Randy Stepp dropped from what increasingly promises to be a multiyear case.
Deadlines for preliminary motions and other pretrial actions extend to July 30, 2014, according to a schedule filed Monday.
Last week, attorneys representing members of the school board and district Treasurer Jim Hudson filed a judgment motion asking for the dismissal of three defamation allegations.
Stepp's lawsuit, filed May 17 in U.S. District Court in Akron, charges school board members and Hudson with defamation and breach of contract claims. The board members have responded and filed a countersuit against Stepp.
In their response, board members argued that a five-year contract they approved on Jan. 7, that included an $83,000 signing bonus, is invalid because it was approved in a manner that violated Ohio's open-government laws.
The board rescinded Stepp's contract on April 17 and placed Stepp on paid administrative leave, pending the outcome of a special state audit into Stepp's use of district money held in a "carryover" fund maintained by the Medina County Schools' Educational Service Center.
In the request for a judgment motion filed earlier this month, attorneys for the school board ask federal District Judge Lesley Wells to dismiss two defamation counts in Stepp's lawsuit and part of another count, alleging "depravation of liberty."
The defamation allegations stem from a news release issued by board members Susan Vlcek, Bill Grenfell and Karla Robinson that stated they didn't know Stepp's 2009 contract, amended in 2011, provided that the district pay off $172,000 in federal loans Stepp owed for his college degrees. Stepp charged the board members knew about the payments, which he directed to be made from the ESC carryover fund.
In the motion asking that the defamation charges be dropped, board members countered that the information in the news release, whether accurate or not, can't be considered defamatory against Stepp.
"The March 22, 2013 press release in question does not pertain to plaintiff Stepp and contains nothing derogatory regarding Stepp," the motion states.
"The public relations release has to do with the board's level of knowledge and awareness concerning some of the issues, but does not say anything about Stepp," the motion states. "In this regard it is not "of and concerning" Randy Stepp. For this reason, the public relations release which Stepp complains of cannot constitute defamation, a false light tort. … This is so whether the press release is true or not."
If the board's motion is successful, it would leave only the breach of contract complaints pending in federal court and could speed up the proceedings.
"If the motion is granted, all the defamation claims against the board members would be dismissed so it's really one half of the lawsuit," said Warren Rossman, an attorney representing school board members. "That's one of the reasons we filed — that was to hopefully make the whole thing a little bit more streamlined."
But even if Judge Wells agrees to drop the defamation allegations, there is no end in sight for the lawsuit.
On Monday, the federal magistrate filed a case management plan for the Stepp suit and countersuit — a schedule that sets the stage for a lengthy legal battle.
The schedule sets a May 16, 2014, for expert discovery to be filed by attorneys. Discovery is part of the pretrial portion of a case where attorneys can request documents and depositions from the opposing party, according to the Ohio Supreme Court's rules on civil procedure.
After attorneys file for discovery, any motion for a summary judgment that asks the judge to dismiss some or all charges must be filed by June 16 and any response to a motion for summary judgment must by filed by July 30, 2014. All of those steps must be completed before a trial can even begin.
If the motion to dismiss the defamation allegations is upheld, the remaining charges made by Stepp allege breach of contract by the board and Hudson, and include two other charges alleging defamation against human resources and legal director Jim Shields.
Shields, through a separate attorney, has filed a motion to have the defamation charges against him dropped.
If the breach of contract claims are all that remains in Stepp's suit, it also could be impacted by a suit filed in a different court.
In a separate case filed on July 29 in Medina County Common Pleas Court, J.R. Russell, a resident and local attorney, filed a suit asking that the court declare Stepp's contract "void and unenforceable" because the school board violated the open meetings law.
The suit also asks that any attempt to enforce the contract by "action in any other tribunal" — an apparent reference to Stepp's federal lawsuit — be declared invalid.

But if your goal is to have 60 percent of your assets in stocks and 40 percent in bonds, you'll want to bring those percentages back in line every January, he suggests. "That's not easy," he says. "It means selling your winners and buying more of your losers." This is your protection for when the markets turn—and they always do.
Another challenge is achieving adequate diversification. The advice used to be to purchase in complementary sets: Buy small-cap stocks and large-cap stocks, growth and value, domestic and international. Why? Because these asset groups tended to move in opposition—when one was down, the other was up, and whatever happened, you were protected. But as the economy has become more global, those relationships have changed. One market isn't as likely to go down when another goes up anymore. That's not to say they are all moving in the same direction; it's just that the relationships are more complicated than they once were.
You can't simply hedge your bets by buying this way anymore—say, by purchasing European stocks to balance U.S. stocks. Malkiel's advice (which I plan to take) is to buy globally in the form of a low-cost world index fund, which will provide greater diversity. Vanguard just launched one that is 24 percent emerging markets, 46 percent Europe, 24 percent Pacific and 6 percent North America. You can access this fund through Vanguard directly as well as through many other brokerage firms. The other alternative (there aren't many of these yet) is iShares MSCI ACWI Index Fund, an all-world exchange-traded fund, which trades like a stock.
Finally, if you're inclined to take a hands-on approach to managing your money, I've always believed there is enough information available from the Internet and other media sources for you to tackle it. But if you feel overwhelmed trying to figure out your financial life, by all means get some help. You can find objective financial advice at the National Association of Personal Financial Advisors (napfa.org; advisers bill by the hour, by retainer or by assets under management) or garrettplanningnetwork.com (where you'll find consultants who bill by the hour). Remember, this isn't a vacation you're planning for, it isn't buying your first house, it isn't even four years of college—it's the last 30 or 40 or 50 years of your life. If financial advice isn't worth paying for now, then I don't know when it will be.

All metals in contact with a biological system undergo corrosion through an electrochemical redox reaction. This study investigated whether human osteoclasts (OC) are able to grow on titanium and aluminum, and directly corrode the metals leading to the release of corresponding metal ions, which are believed to cause inflammatory reactions and activate osteoclastic differentiation. Scanning electron microscopy analysis demonstrated long-term viable OC cultures on the surface of titanium and aluminum foils. Atomic emission spectrometry investigations showed significantly increased levels of aluminum in the supernatant of OC cultured on aluminum; however, all measurements in the supernatants of cell cultures on titanium were below detection limits. Despite this, confocal microscopy analysis with Newport Green DCF diacetate ester staining depicted intense fluorescence throughout the cytoplasm and nucleolus of OC cultured on titanium foils. Comparable fluorescence intensities were not observed in monocytes and control cells cultured on glass. The present study demonstrated that human osteoclast precursors are able to grow and differentiate toward mature OC on titanium and aluminum. Furthermore, it established that the mature cells are able to directly corrode the metal surface and take up corresponding metal ions, which subsequently may be released and thereby induce the formation of osteolytic lesions in the periprosthetic bone, contributing to the loosening of the implant. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

TC TO MARGARET A. CARLYLE ; 29 August 1853; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18530829-TC-MAC-01; CL 28: 256
Chelsea, 29 Augt, 1853—
My dear Mother,
This morning there came a Newspaper from Alick, with the comfortable two strokes on it; I inclose you the Cover, to give you a moment's satisfaction by the sight of it. In the Newspaper itself there was nothing but the usual hogshead of dirty wash; rumours of "elections," abuses of governors, quarrels with brother editors, and so forth; which I can retain here, without damage, for lighting of pipes,
On friday I wrote to Jean; so have no news more. I hope Jean will soon answer me;—may she have good news to send!
Our weather is getting quite cool in the evenings and morning: but is of great brightness (as today) when the sun fairly gets the upper hand, and usually hot enough still; tho' we have had frequent very stormy rains. Our builders are very busy, and many of them; they are clever fellows, too; and I think will finish both soon and well. We have four weeks of it yet at the very least. John Chorley looks over everything for me; gleg as a hawk; mounts twice or thrice a week by the outer ladder,—it must be about 50 feet high on the very top of all: I never stir off the ground hitherto, and do not mean to ascend till there is a staircase. The roof is now all on, so that we have nothing more to do with rain: this morning I fell asleep again in spite of the hammering overhead, and added two hours to my otherwise deficient stock.— Jane has gone out to walk; and so now must I. Not the least news about the Glen case yet; nothing for us but wait!—
Dear good Mother, I have nothing but my wishes, affections, and heart's-prayers to send you: and, alas, what are those good for? May God bless you, and us all! In Him let us never cease to trust, for Time and Eternity.—— With love to all, Ever your affectionate

Matt Drudge of the Drudge Report shamed American citizens for submitting to government, allowing the National Security Agency (NSA) to spy on and store data, anywhere, about them without security cause. On Jan. 19, 2014, Drudge tweeted, "Only in a fading nation would it become WHERE to store gov't spying on its citizens. Any free people would demand it STOPPED and DESTROYED!"

Previously, Drudge had dared to tweet outright that President Obama was too afraid of the NSA to stop them from spying on regular Americans. With these tweets, plus ongoing Drudge site headlines about NSA, Drudge appears to be rallying Americans for a privacy showdown.
During what is now a raging national surveillance debate since Edward Snowden released documents which incited fears that the NSA is compromising the privacy of Americans, Drudge may be the the first high profile political personality to dump the ultimate blame in the laps of America's citizenry.
Now, following the president's recent comments regarding reforming the NSA, speaking specifically of relocating the data, both liberals and conservatives immediately began to voice skepticism that shifting the storage of the data would work. Like Obama, many are trying to balance security needs with privacy needs.
Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) wouldn't back down on what she considers a vital need to continue collecting the data, explaining, "The whole purpose of this program is to provide instantaneous information to be able to disrupt any plot that may be taking place," On NBC's "Meet the Press." Feinstein acknowledged doubts about whether Obama's plan was the solution.
Speaking as the Democrat Chair, Feinstein joined Republican Chairman Rogers of the Intelligence Committee on Sunday questioning whether the federal government's collection of data on domestic telephone calls should be transferred to private entities, pointing out private phone companies wouldn't be subject to oversight, adding that it wasn't a responsibility the companies even wanted.
Kentucky Senator Rand Paul, in an interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer scoffed at any notion that moving data would end the outrage from those who think the NSA is basically trolling the data of average Americans with no valid justification. Paul said, "What I think I heard is that if you like your privacy, you can keep it," adding, "But in the meantime, we're going to keep collecting your phone records, your email, your text messages and, likely, your credit card information."

Are Blu Electronic Cigarettes Safe?
There are many new devices on the market to help people stop using tobacco. A particular product that is designed specifically for smokers is the e-cig. This is a device that uses aromatics in a nicotine vapor to simulate smoking, but without the use of tobacco. Products come in different flavors, to enhance the pleasure of using the devices and to simulate the joy of smoking tobacco. Many people who are considering using one of the devices wonder how it may effect their health.
There are many brands of this new device. One particular brand offers a charger for the simulated smoking device and is said to provide more puffs per cartridge. But, are blu electronic cigarettes safe?
The answer is they are safer for a person's health than smoking tobacco products. The product does use nicotine, so any effects of this chemical will expose users. However, much of the harm of smoking comes from the tar in the tobacco. Illnesses such as chronic cough, bronchitis, asthma, and lung cancer are all associated with tobacco. Nicotine is believed to be addictive though many people claim they are also addicted to tobacco.
Tobacco itself is irritating to the lungs and the respiratory system. The introduction of electronic smoking devices eliminates the health hazards associated with using tobacco in the inhaled form, such as through smoking a cigarette with tobacco. Eliminating this health hazard to the respiratory system is huge, since it can also effect those who are in close proximity to a person smoking a cigarette.
Many organizations do not recognize the e-cig as a safer alternative to use in public, but it produces no smoke and therefore, does not affect those who are in close proximity to a user of this device. It this way it is much safer for others to be around someone who uses this alternative to smoking regular cigarettes.
There are some drawbacks of using an e-cig. They still deliver nearly as much nicotine to the user, depending on the strength selected. Nicotine is addictive and can cause users to continue with the product after giving up regular cigarettes. The product is designed as a safer alternative that does offer some health benefits, such as reduced incidence of respiratory illness and other illnesses associated with exposure to tobacco. Though there are some risks associated with using the electronic device, it is much safer than continuing to use tobacco products on a regular basis.
So, to answer the question, are blu electronic cigarettes safe? One must consider the type of safety that can be achieved. There is no exposure to tobacco, though nicotine is delivered in the vapor. Much of the health risk associated with tobacco use is eliminated by using the alternative vapor producing device.

Metro passengers could be barraged with ads inside and outside the trains this fall as the transit agency tries to get through the grim economy with a new source of money.
The Metro board voted unanimously Wednesday to reverse its no-advertisement policy and adopted a program that would be the most aggressive among new Western light-rail systems.
Wednesday's vote clears Metro to solicit proposals for advertising in display cases, on floors and wrapped around the outside of trains. Ads also will be allowed on flat screens to be installed inside the trains and on new station platform kiosks.
Metro is turning to ads for revenue, partly because it gets most of its operating funds from cities that are strapped for cash because of the economic downturn. Unless other sources of revenue can be found, the system could face service cuts and more fare increases.
Last year, Metro consultants predicted that a full-scale ad campaign could bring in $1.6 million a year. But that was before the economic crash last fall, and it remains unclear how much Metro could make. Metro's proposed budget for the coming year is $34.5 million.
A survey of systems in Texas, Colorado and Utah shows that no light-rail system goes nearly as far as Metro in where ads are allowed to be placed. But some systems are more liberal in the advertising content they accept.
Metro's new policy prohibits ads promoting sex, drugs, tobacco, alcohol, violence or political views.
In Dallas, the DART system does allow paid political ads but only in display cases on platform windbreaks. Sue Bauman, DART vice president of marketing and community affairs, said she understands Metro's decision to open its system to extensive advertising.
"Anybody prudent in this economy has to be looking at ways to strengthen their revenue," Bauman said.
Houston accepts no ads on its light-rail system.
In Salt Lake City, light-rail trains have modest panel ads on the inside and outside of each car but nowhere on stations. The Utah Transit Authority grossed $320,000 last year and accepts some ads that sell alcohol, mostly promoting restaurants.
In Denver, the Rapid Transit District allows ads only on overhead panel and see-through window stickers on the insides of trains.
The content policy is similar to Metro's. Like many systems, RTD contracted its advertising program to a vendor. The vendor takes in everything above a negotiated amount. The RTD earned a $2.8 million last year, before the vendor's share, including ad sales on Denver's extensive bus system.
Metro will seek two contracts to manage its ad program, one for traditional sources, another for the electronic displays.
In February, the Phoenix-area public got its first taste of train advertising during a weeklong experiment to promote the NBA All-Star Game.
About 200 people responded to an unscientific poll on Metro's Web site. The agency reported that opinions were split evenly over the eye-catching wraparound ads.
The experiment grossed $40,000 for Metro. Metro marketing manager Marty McNeil said station ads, train wraps and decals on train floors or platforms could start appearing as soon as the fall. The flat-screen ads and kiosks may be a year away.
The screens inside trains would be silent and not interactive. Instead, they would scroll through ads, news headlines, Metro public-service messages, news and entertainment spots. Similar systems exist inside some elevators and on Atlanta's MARTA heavy-rail system.

According to the Canadian Press on Tuesday, John Morris will skip team Canada at the 2015 Tim Hortons Brier in Calgary. A spot was open for the defending national men's curling champion squad based out of the Glencoe Club in Calgary when skip Kevin Koe made the announcement that he would be forming a new team next season.
This means that Morris, who ironically lost the 2014 Tim Hortons Brier final to Koe in March, will be joined next year by third Pat Simmons, second Carter Rycroft and lead Nolan Thiessen, for the first ever team Canada at a Brier championship.
Morris has an excellent resume. He was the third for Kevin Martin on team Canada at the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver, won a gold medal as the third for Martin at the 2008 World Curling Championships in Grand Forks, North Dakota, won two Briers as a third (2008 and 2009 with Martin) and advanced to two Brier championships as a skip (2002 with Ontario and 2014 with British Columbia).
Interestingly, Morris, who was born in Winnipeg, has been in the championship game in the last two Briers that have been in Calgary. In 2002 with third Joe Frans, second Craig Savill and lead Brent Laing, Morris lost 9-4 to Randy Ferbey of Alberta In 2009 while with Martin, Marc Kennedy and Ben Hebert, Morris was part of an Alberta team that beat Manitoba's Jeff Stoughton 10-4.
Also just another example of how the small the curling world is, Laing is joining Koe as his new second. Laing had been the long time second for Ontario's Glenn Howard after his time with Morris.
Koe meanwhile will be the heavy favourite to win the 2015 Alberta Provincial Curling Championship (better known as the Boston Pizza Cup) in Wainwright, Alberta. His biggest competition will come from Edmonton's Jamie King, who ironically was Koe's fifth this past year. King also has two very familiar curlers on his team. King's third is Blake MacDonald (won a World Championship with Koe as his third in 2010) and his second is Scott Pfeifer (who won four world championships with Ferbey in 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2005).

Nothing seems to be going right for the Albuquerque Isotopes of late. Their struggles continued Sunday afternoon in an 11-5 loss to the visiting Fresno Grizzlies.
Fresno (15-16) has won eight in a row and clinched the four-game series. Albuquerque (15-15), meanwhile, is still searching for answers on the mound and at the plate while enduring a constant stream of roster moves to help the Dodgers.
"You'd like to be able to be consistent, but the big-league (team) needs guys to step in and have spot starts," manager Damon Berryhill said. "There's no excuse. If it's your turn to get the ball, you've got to take the opportunity and do a nice job.
"We've had a few rough days in a row where we've given up big numbers in one inning. That's tough to overcome. We've got to get better."
Spot starter Steve Smith (0-2) gave up a three-run homer to Adam Duvall in the first inning, but it was the fifth where the wheels came off. Smith had tossed five scoreless innings in his previous start against Salt Lake on April 29, but had not factored in the decision.
The Isotopes had tied the game back in the third on back-to-back RBI doubles by Tim Federowicz and Trayvon Robinson. It all came undone with one out in the fifth.
Gary Brown doubled and Joe Panik, who went 4-for-5 on the day, followed with a single. After former Isotope Tony Abreu walked to load the bases, Tyler Colvin hit a soft single to center field that drove in two runs. Duvall then stepped up and blasted his second three-run homer of the day to make it 8-3.
All told, Smith was charged with eight runs on seven hits and two walks in 4.1 innings. Justin Souza gave up one more run in the fifth on Tyler LaTorre's RBI single and then another in the sixth on Abreu's RBI double.
"Smitty, it is is kind of a spot start, a tough situation for him," Berryhill said. "He hit that chopper (in the fourth inning) and kind of ran hard down the line. Then probably about 10 pitches into that inning he ran out of gas."
Offensively, Albuquerque continued to struggle to put together a big inning. The Isotopes left five men in scoring position over the course of the game.
Joc Pederson went 3-for-4, but the whole day could probably be summed up by what happened to him in the ninth. He hit a bloop single that eluded all three Fresno outfielders, saw them kick it around, tried to advance to second but hesitated just long enough that he was ultimately thrown out.
"We're just making too many mistakes right now," Berryhill said. "Location of pitches has been kind of poor. We've made some mental mistakes that have hurt us."
The Isotopes and Grizzlies will finish the series with a matinee game Monday at 11:05 a.m. Albuquerque will activate Carlos Frias (0-1, 10.80 ERA) to start while Fresno will send lefty Mike Kickham (1-3, 3.30) to the mound.
Around the Lab
Right-hander Stephen Fife, as expected, was officially called up by the Dodgers and started against the Marlins in Miami. He allowed four runs in six innings as Los Angeles lost 5-4. ... Lefty reliever Paco Rodriguez took Fife's spot on the roster. ... Outfielder Nick Buss was claimed off waivers by the Oakland A's, who then optioned him to Sacramento. The River Cats visit Albuquerque for four games starting Tuesday at 6:35 p.m. Berryhill said Buss will be missed. "It's tough to lose Chili," Berryhill said. "He really fit in this lineup, a great team player. He played in this system his whole career. It's a tough loss for the Dodgers, but on the other hand I'm happy for Chili. I'm wishing him all the best."

With the wave of 80s culture turning into movies, it may not be too surprising that a "Knight Rider" film is in the works. Who may star in the film may be surprising though. Earlier today, schmoesknow.com possibly leaked the potential stars of the film.
Chris Pratt from "Everwood" and "Zero Dark Thirty" and Danny McBride from "This is the End" and "Eastbound & Down" may star. No news on who the actors will play. McBride would be a good fit to play Michael Knight, originally played by David Hasselhoff, if The Weinstein Company, the studio who owns to the right to a "Knight Rider" film, wanted to give the film a comedic tone. Pratt could definitely be the villain or even possibly the voice of KITT, the intelligent car. I wish William Daniels would return for the voice of KITT personally.
More is certainly to change. When more comes available, the National Geek Lifestyle Examiner will post the news here, so subscribe for email updates.
