Obviously, the New Orleans Saints' 31st-ranked rushing attack has been missing injured tailbacks Pierre Thomas and Reggie Bush in recent weeks.
Guard Carl Nicks doesn't consider that an excuse for the team's anemic 3.3 yards per carry and 75.6 yards per game this season. He said the improvement has to start up front.
"As long as there's a hole, it doesn't matter who's running, " Nicks said. "You know, I can run through a hole as long as there's a hole."
Chances are, the Saints won't be handing the ball off to Nicks anytime soon -- although Nicks, 6 feet 5, 343 pounds, would certainly be tough to bring down.
However, the Saints do need to find a way to get their running game off the ground, starting with an improved performance from an offensive line that was lauded as the best unit in the NFL last year and sent three of its members to the Pro Bowl.
"It's definitely not up to our standard. We realize that up front, " said All-Pro right guard Jahri Evans, who has been off to an inconsistent start this season after becoming the highest-paid interior lineman in NFL history this past offseason with a seven-year, $56.7 million deal. "We know that we've got to play better. And we're working at it. We're just hitting this tough patch right now where we're not playing as well as we expect to play."
There haven't been any specific problem areas or repeat offenders from the Saints' offensive line. But there have been a series of miscues and untimely penalties across the board early this season.
Evans has been flagged for three holding penalties and a false start. And he's been beaten for a handful of run stuffs behind the line of scrimmage.
Pro Bowl right tackle Jon Stinchcomb has allowed 3.5 sacks -- a half-sack shy of his career high for a season.
Overall, the rushing attack is averaging 1.2 yards per carry less than last year, and those signature screen plays haven't been breaking loose as often, either.
Just like with quarterback Drew Brees and the Saints' passing attack, things haven't been terrible up front; they've just been slightly askew.
"To be credited with three sacks (against him) in the past two weeks, that's a really high number for me, " Stinchcomb said. "And I think that's the way our entire offense is. Is any one player playing awful? No, that's not the case. It's a simple breakdown on this play from one player, then the next play, it's somebody else. So we haven't hit our stride, obviously. And it's all about getting on the same page.
"I think we're close. We just continue to focus on the details and work on execution. And we have complete faith in the group in this locker room that we can get the job done."
The Saints' margin for error has been smaller this year on offense, because defenses consistently have sat back in coverage to shut down the quick-strike passing attack. As a result, the Saints have been forced to move the chains more methodically, putting together drives of 10, 12, even 18 plays.
At times, the Saints have moved the ball very efficiently down the field. And their running game has looked good in spurts, even with backups Chris Ivory and Ladell Betts carrying the load.
However, too many times, they've scuttled those long drives with a turnover, a penalty, a run that loses yards, or a missed field-goal attempt.
"If a defense is going to play that Cover 2, 'Let everything happen in front of us and hope the offense makes a mistake, ' we need to make a defense pay, " Stinchcomb said. "And with our red-zone efficiency as low as it is, we haven't been able to threaten defenses enough to make them want to change from that mentality."
This past Sunday's 30-20 loss at Arizona was a prime example. The Saints got inside the Cardinals' 20-yard line four times but scored only one touchdown.
The first time, in the first quarter, the Saints had a first-and-10 on Arizona's 21, but Ivory lost 3 yards on a rush to the right side. Evans appeared to let the tackler get past him with an inefficient chip block, and there was no one else in the area to help. The Saints eventually settled for a field goal.
Later, in the third quarter, the Saints blew a golden opportunity -- first-and-goal on Arizona's 5. After an incomplete pass on first down, Betts ran for 1 yard on second down, into a wall of defenders up the middle. Then Betts ran again for only 1 yard on a draw play on third down, with a hole closing up behind left tackle Jermon Bushrod. But that play was nullified by a false-start penalty on Stinchcomb. On third-and-9, Betts lost 2 yards on a screen pass when cornerback Michael Adams went unblocked on the outside.
This time, kicker John Carney missed a 29-yard field-goal attempt.
"That would be the thing that stands out most, missed opportunities in the red zone ... execution in the red zone, " Pro Bowl center Jonathan Goodwin said. "I don't have an exact reason for it. But I do think that if we get in the red zone and score touchdowns instead of field goals, that makes a huge difference. Definitely in the two games we lost."
Every lineman and Coach Sean Payton agreed that there are no major reasons for concern, only minor tweaks needed.
The Saint rank around the middle of the pack in the NFL in sacks allowed (eight) and holding penalties (seven).
Evans pleaded innocent on at least one of his holding penalties. But he said he needs to learn to adjust to what the umpires are seeing and calling, now that they're lined up behind the quarterback instead of behind the defense. Holding calls are up nearly 25 percent league-wide as a result so far this season.
"I'm a little frustrated (by the penalties), but I'm not gonna change the way I play the game, " Evans said. "I play it fast, I play it physical. (And in the run game, it's) really just homing in on little things, like head placement, where your hat is, you know, making sure that the back doesn't have to cut it back.
"I think we're working at it. We're getting better at it. We're pretty low right now (in the rankings). But, hey, ain't nowhere to go but up, right?"

Description | A Java program to read a text file and print each of the unique words in alphabetical order together with the number of times the word occurs in the text.
The program should declare a variable of type
Map<String, Integer> to store the words and corresponding frequency of occurrence. Which concrete type, though?
TreeMap<String, Number> or
HashMap<String, Number> ?
The input should be converted to lower case.
A word does not contain any of these characters:
Example output |

as 1
Remark | I know, I've seen elegant solutions to this in Perl with roughly two lines of code. However, I want to see it in Java.
Edit: Oh yeah, it be helpful to show an implementation using one of these structures (in Java).

I don't know why I've laughed so hard. It's actually a little too close to home. Thanks for the fun!ReplyDelete
Oh my goodness, I laughed so hard I just about cried! I swear I've always been like that though. In first grade I remember looking under the sofa before school and my mom asking me what I was doing. "looking for my shoes", I said. "You're wearing them", she replied. Dang, how did I ever remember anything?ReplyDelete
Great stuff...I think she covered just about everything I've done or not done!!!! LOLReplyDelete
I walked out of the Post Office one time, got in my car and then couldn't find my sunglasses. I looked everywhere in my car, then thought I must have left them in the Post Office, so back in I went. I looked all over the counter and someone in line - and mind you, the Post Office was full - asked me if I lost something. I told him "my sunglasses" and he said, "They're on your head." Sure enough, they had been sitting on top of my head the whole time. Needless to say, everyone had a good laugh, though I was somewhat mortified at the time. :)ReplyDelete
That was so cute. Thanks for sharing a good laugh with us. We went to a restaurant with friends a few weeks ago and Don said he couldn't find his glasses. Evidently I had mine on my head and his on my nose. I guess I was prepared to read that menu....lol...ReplyDelete
I'm so glad to be in good company, Penny. That was hilarious!ReplyDelete
Hi Penny! LOL This is good and a little true! :)ReplyDelete
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Hilarious, Penny! I can so relate.ReplyDelete
Thanks for the laugh!

Kim Sword was named head strength and conditioning coach at UCLA on February 11, 2002. He replaced Mike Linn, who after nine years with the program, decided to relocate to the Midwest for family reasons.
Sword came to UCLA from San Jose State University, where he had been head strength and conditioning coordinator since 1999. Prior to that, he spent five years at Utah State University, where he served as assistant strength coach for two years before being elevated to the head position in 1996.
In 1993, Sword received his Bachelor of Science degree in physical education from Missouri Western State University in St. Joseph, MO. He completed his Master's Degree in Exercise Physiology from Utah State in 1995
"After conducting a national search, we have determined that Kim Sword possesses all of the qualities we are looking for in a head strength and conditioning coach," said UCLA Associate Athletics Director Glenn Toth. "We believe Kim Sword can maintain UCLA's level of excellence as one of the top strength programs in the country."
In addition to his work at various universities, Sword has done extensive research in the area of exercise science and has done numerous speaking engagements on the topic. Portions of his Master's thesis, Correlating Vertical Jumps Performance with the Back Squat and Power Clean, were utilized in three separate publications.
The new Bruin coach played offensive line at Missouri Western State, earning All-Conference and honorable mention All-America acclaim as a senior.
While at San Jose State, Sword designed and helped raise the funds for a new strength and rehabilitation center. Sword is both C.S.C.C and N.S.C.A certified.

A potential future colorway of the Air Jordan 6 leaked on Monday that pays homage to Michael Jordan's habit of smoking cigars as he celebrates another NBA championship. The Air Jordan 6 "Championship Cigar" could potentially one of the biggest and most talked about releases of 2014 if this leaked sample became a reality.
With the Air Jordan 6 set to drop in multiple colorways this year, this new edition pays close attention to the Jordan legend. The Air Jordan 6 were the shoes that he wore when he won his first NBA championship back in 1991 and in what became a tradition after each championship celebration, Jordan would smoke a celebratory cigar for a job well done.
The "Championship Cigar" Air Jordan 6 appears to have a premium textured leather upper that resembles the cigars that Jordan favors and a championship ring lace jewel that replaces the lace lock typically found on the Air Jordan 6. Other details include a red midsole tongue, a translucent outsole and a gold Jordan logo found in the middle of the tongue.
As of now, there is no word on whether this will move beyond the sample phase and into production but with the 23rd anniversary of Jordan's first championship coming up in June of 2014, it would be surprising if there wasn't a tribute of sorts from Jordan Brand one way or another.

Risk Management & the COSO Framework
Risk is defined as the possibility that an event will occur and adversely affect the achievement of an objective. (Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission)
Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) is:
- A process effected by an entity's board of directors, management, and other personnel
- Applied in strategy setting across the enterprise
- Designed to identify potential events that may affect the entity and manage risk to be within its risk appetite
- To provide reasonable assurance regarding the achievement of entity objectives
The ERM framework is graphically depicted as a three-dimensional matrix which depicts the interrelationships between the objectives categories (across the top), the components of ERM (on the face), and the entity's business structure (the side of the cube).
The business structure across the right face of the cube depicts cascading nature of risk management throughout the organization. It doesn't matter whether you use a bottom up or top down approach, the risk management plan should be the same at the end of the day.
Certain risks will exist at the entity level, for example those associated with capital markets or overall leadership. As we drill into the organization, risks will vary by division, business unit, and subsidiary based on varying products, customers, suppliers, geographic locations, currency exposure, commodity exposure, etc.
So if you understand this layering of risks, you get the idea of the business structure face of the COSO cube. In the sections that follow, we'll drill into the other faces of the cube, which require a little more of an explanation.
Click each of the headings below to dive into the Components of ERM
On the top face of the COSO cube we have objectives. Objectives can be categorized into one of four groups:
- Strategic objectives – high level goals aligned with the mission of the organization
- Operational objectives – effective and efficient use of resources
- Reporting objectives – reliable internal and external reporting
- Compliance objectives – conformance with applicable laws and regulations
These objectives aren't just risk management objectives. These are the very same objectives that would be described and defined through a strategic planning process. When you stand back and look at these objectives, you realize that these are the things you need to achieve to run a successful business.
The internal environment is composed of the tone of an organization, which sets the basis for how risk and control are viewed and addressed. The internal environment is the foundation which provides structure and discipline for all the other components of enterprise risk management.
Objective setting is the process of establishing strategic goals for an entity. The achievement of strategic goals necessitates development of operational, reporting, and compliance objectives.
Objectives are set taking into consideration the risk tolerance and risk appetite of the entity.
Event identification determines which events may affect an entity and whether these events represent opportunities or risks to the achievement of objectives. Opportunities factor into setting the strategic objectives. Risks require management attention for assessment and response.
Identifying events requires management to consider both internal and external factors that could give rise to an event. Factors may arise from: economic events, natural disasters, political changes, societal changes, technological advancements, personnel incidents, process deficiencies, etc.
Risk assessment occurs when management evaluates the potential impact of specific risks on the entity. There are two dimensions that are considered using qualitative and quantitative analysis:
- Likelihood (probability)
- Impact (amount)
There are four risk responses management can take to each risk identified.
- Avoidance. Exiting or divesting of the activities giving rise to the risk
- Reduction. Actions are taken to reduce risk by for example, implementing controls
- Sharing. Actions are taken to transfer or share risk for example by: purchasing insurance, engaging in hedging, or outsourcing an activity
- Acceptance. No action is taken and the entity accepts the risk rather than deploy resources to address
Risks are often related. Sometimes the response to one risk impacts the response to others. Risks should be considered on a portfolio basis as well as an individual basis.
Inherent risk represents the total amount of the risk in the absence of any management actions. Residual risk is the amount of risk left over after management takes actions to alter either the likelihood or the impact of a risk.
Control activities are the policies and procedures that help ensure the risk responses are carried out and are most often associated with risk reduction strategies. These activities occur at all levels and in all functions throughout the organization. Risks are mapped to the key processes in the organization. Control activities are classified in a variety of ways including; preventive or detective, manual or automated, entity level or process level.
Information and Communication requires the identification, capture, and communication of pertinent information to those accountable for managing the risk. To be decision relevant, information must embody these characteristics:
- Appropriate and at the right level of detail
- Available when needed
- Timely, current, and recent
- Accurate and reliable
- Accessible to those who need it
Communication streams must be established for efficient delivery of information not only from the top down, but also the bottom up, across the organization, and between internal and external stakeholders (e.g. suppliers and customers).
Monitoring is the assessment of the ERM continuously over time to ensure it continues to function as designed and is effective. Monitoring activities are often done by internal auditors and any deficiencies are reported to the appropriate level of management or the board depending on the severity.
Monitoring activities can also be performed by individuals within the entity through self- assessments. The external auditor provides a form of monitoring activity.

|Memory and Justice: A Photo Essay on Argentina's Human Rights Movement
|Written by Marie Trigona
|Wednesday, 16 December 2009 11:16
Photos and Text by Marie Trigona
Some 30,000 people were disappeared during Argentina's 1976-1983 military dictatorship. Kidnapped by commando groups in the middle of the night, they were taken to clandestine detention centers. The largest and most notorious torture center, The ESMA Navy Mechanics School in Buenos Aires still stands today, but as a museum for Memory.
At the ESMA the Navy along with other police and military groups devised a complex system for the forced disappearance of individuals. Most of the prisoners were held at the Officer's Quarters, where high ranking officials slept and lived while women and men were tortured in the basement and attic.
Torture survivor Victor Basterra was held at the ESMA from 1979 until the end of the dictatorship. In the basement of the ESMA's Officer's Quarters, Basterra traversed through the same space where he and detainees underwent unimaginable terror. "This area was called the 'huevera' or 'egg cup' because the walls were lined with egg cartons to drown out noises."
More than 5,000 people were detained and disappeared at the ESMA Navy Mechanics School. Hundreds of officers, cadets and higher ranking officials worked at concentration camp. Prisoners were also held and tortured in the attic also known as the "Capucha" or "Hood." The military gave this sinister name because detainees were held handcuffed and hooded.
Many of the victims from the ESMA were drugged and dropped into the sea in the death flights. Few bodies have been recovered.
The ESMA housed a clandestine maternity ward where pregnant women held at the ESMA were forced to give birth in captivity. Doctors and nurses assisted in the delivery. Shortly after birth, newborns were separated from their mothers and appropriated by marines or other members of the military forces. It is estimated that 35 children were born while their mothers were held in illegal captivity at the ESMA.
The few torture victims which survived the ESMA provided much of the information as to what is known about how the ESMA operated. Basterra, who will testify in the trial, took photos of officers and prisoners during his detention at the ESMA, risking his life to smuggle them out later providing evidence to try the officers. The photos were used in the first Junta Trial in 1985.
For more than three decades, survivors and their families anticipated the trial of officers who worked at the ESMA and now face charges of human rights abuses, torture and murder.
For 29 years the human rights group Mothers of Plaza de Mayo has held their annual March of the Resistance on International Human Rights day to demand justice and information as to the whereabouts of their children. Marta Ocampo de Vazquez is the president of the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo - Founding Line. "Today we are holding the 29th March of the Resistance, remembering our past. And remembering that we still don't have truth and justice. We still don't know the whole truth and what happened to our children."
Since 1977, the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo have protested in the historic Plaza de Mayo. Because many of the mothers are now in their 80s, some worry that they will not live to see the military held responsible for its crimes. This year's march of the resistance came a day before a major human rights trial began.
At the opening day of the ESMA trial, survivors, relatives and rights activists wore T-shirts displaying the message trial and punishment. Victoria Donda, who was born at the ESMA while her mother was in captivity attended the trial (second from left). Donda recuperated her identity in 2003.
The ESMA trial is one of the biggest human rights trials in Latin America's history. Among those on trial include Alfredo Astiz, Jorge Acosta, Ricardo Cavallo and Adolfo Donda, referred to by Human Rights groups some of the most sinister repressors among the ranks of the military. In total, thirteen marines, two police, one coast guard, and one Army official are on trial.
The ESMA trial is a welcomed step toward justice, however much remains to be known about the whereabouts of 30,000 people who were forcefully disappeared. The trials were made possible by the work of human rights activists who have endlessly demanded justice for the crimes committed against their loved ones.

Bizaar yet awesome display of Mother Nature being Mother Nature.
Kinda reminds me of a Chia Plant growing after you water it....cool!
WTF?! I googled "ice needles" and found this:
The phenomenon occurs when the water is above freezing (obviously) but the surrounding air is below freezing. The liquid water is pushed out by its internal pressure and then instantly freezes. There are also some very cool images of "frost beard" http://goo.gl/z0P9Q and "frost flowers" http://goo.gl/wmsoK -- the ice is practically *extruded* into various shapes.
The boy in the t-shirt doesn't seem to be cold though, so it must be something else -- who can give the correct explanation?

Someone call God, we've found another bug...
More googling: This phenomenon is quite rare, and I haven't found any *scientifi* explanations yet, but here are a few highlights from currents news media:
"Temperatures in the high 70s mixed with strong winds were pushing an ice sheet covering the lake against the shore, creating the effect" (http://goo.gl/GRmUZ) and "the remaining ice is very brittle due to the sun and warm temps, and at some point it reaches the state where ice first crystalizes. The ice then splinters, creating a racket in the process. One viewer emailed Mr. Sebesta claiming that it is known as "chandeleiring ice." Another friend of Jerrid's claims that a similar occurrence happened on the shores of Lake Mille Lacs back in 1994." (http://goo.gl/7ynHy)

#4 "The mysterious phenomenon at Medicine Lake, east Minneapolis, was spotted this weekend as winter temperatures finally broke in the state and the mercury soared to 26C/79F.
Prior to that Minnesotans had just endured freezing weather that had led to the latest thaw of the state's frozen lakes since records began."
Strong winds were pushing the thawing ice onto the shoreline.
correct me if i'm wrong but i think is because of the pressure made by the ice on the surface, the water under pressure by the surface need a lower temperature to stay in liquid state. If the surface broke the water go out and turn ice as it lower its pressure(since the temperature remain lower than the 0°C needed).
It happens me sometimes with the beers or some beverage pulled out from deep-freeze, i open them, some gas come out and..bang... ice -.-

The fresh new community source IMPACT HUB OAKLAND welcomed the first START UP WEEKEND in Oakland for Black Male Achievement February 7th-9th. Entrepreneurs, business owners welcomed young Trailblazers and their parents, Mentors and Super Mentors to the opening of the weekend with the invitation to the young men present to be producers as well as consumers, to creating not just playing video games. From this weekend, many of the ideas that are presented by these young people will get the support and productions to entry into the world of APS, website and technology.
Julian Bryant opened the evening with the invitation to all who chose to present their ideas, and highlighted the evening with the goal of the weekend. To have young black men find their place in the world. Behind him on the screen were the words from George Bernard Shaw that gave a context to why we were all there.
The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for circumstances they want, and if they don't find them, they make them. George Bernard Shaw
START UPS throughout the country from 2009-2013 have had 100,000 attendees. The SUPER MENTORS present were the inventors who had come through and produced new APS, and new technology in the realms of Restorative Justice, education, sustainability in environmental and community support. Those Super Mentors are there for the purpose of supporting the work that will come from this group of Trailblazers by the end of the weekend. The young black men, 13-21 years of age, for whom the weekend was inspired and produced, were of benefit to and from the entrepreneurs and business owners always looking for fresh ground from New York City to Silicon Valley.
The weekend is about action so right away, a line of young Trailblazers came to the front of the stage and presented their proposals in one minute sessions. Teams would be formed as those in the audience were to choose which ideas they would support. It was all about collaboration and using the group to produce the results. Video games and APS that provide services were presented, some extremely imaginative. A Homework AP that alerts the student to when assignments and tests are due was presented by one young man of 16. Connect the Dots by one young man of 14 who attends a private school where black boys are the minority proposed an AP that allowed minority students at different schools to have a way to be in communication and problem solve together. An individual API (Advanced Placement Instrument) was proposed by one Trailblazer age 14, to provide students not in the program at their school to have the benefit of the program with individual testing they could employ. Another Trailblazer, a 9th grader, proposed an Algebra AP for students going from Junior High to High School. Health APs were proposed where diet and exercise could be measured and accounted for to help young people learn how to take care of their bodies.
The idea was to identity a problem which was given by the Trailblazers in their pitches, and a solution. The teams that formed after the pitches by the Trailblazers will work together to bring the idea to use. There were over a hundred people participating. Work that has resulted from previous START UPS across then country were shared, one of which was presented by Sharon Simmons in her COMMUNITY ANONYMOUS AP. Sharon had the tragedy of her nephew being thought to be a gang member and shot in the back by police in Chicago. What she did with this heart break is identify the problem. She determined that the problem was getting information from the community to the police. The gap between the police and the people was where useful information was that would be of benefit. People do see and hear things, Sharon said, but do not come forward. Because some of the police give information to gangs, they don't trust that police are safe to make reports to and don't want to put their own lives at risk. Her AP provided the means for the public to report what they see anonymously. There has already been a value to this AP resulting in more reporting and more information to police who have used the information well, Sharon reported.
Throughout the weekend, the teams that form will support these young Trailblazers to establish a mentor relationship with those who want to see them succeed, and actually learn about success in the process. As well, the APS and gains in technology seen through the eyes of youth will produce a series of ideas and suggestions that can add to improved community life, and have the youth be producers as well as consumers in video games and technology.
VAN JONES will be the speaker tonight at the event. Recently at a Ella Baker Breakfast, Van Jones spoke of the need for those who got out of the racial limitations and obstructions to go back in and support this next generation. In doing so, the young black males will find what they need off the streets and in the world in which they are included as productive participants. The sense of the tragedy of young black men like Trayvon Martin and those around the country who are being killed in their early teens prevails, but the inspiration of this work for Black Male Achievement provides a platform for entry and purpose for this upcoming generation and a new chapter that encourages their participation and the means to achieve their place and purpose.

ELYRIA — For the past 20 years, Elyria native Bruce Brown has made a name for himself as a "foodie" in the small North Caroline town of Marion, where he operates a small restaurant and mail-order business that specializes in cheesecake.
Brown, 52, now has another notch in his professional belt.
On Sunday night, he was among several chefs who appeared on the new Spike TV food competition show "Frankenfood."
Brown and his wife, Barbara, watched the inaugural episode of "Frankenfood" Sunday night in Elyria with family members while the couple was in town for the 35th reunion of his Elyria High School class of 1979.
It was Brown's second visit home in a week. He had made a quick 18-hour visit by plane the weekend before to celebrate the 90th birthday of his mother, who still lives in the family's old neighborhood near St. Jude Church.
Anyone who missed Sunday night's episode featuring Brown will get another chance to see the 30-minute show at 10:30 p.m. this Sunday.
Brown's resume includes time working at Elyria's Mountain Jack restaurant.
The youngest of six children, Brown spoke fondly of his days carrying The Chronicle-Telegram on a paper route handed down over 20-plus years from three older brothers, two of whom still live in the Elyria area.
His move to North Carolina in 1993 followed many trips from Elyria to visit his wife's parents, who live near Asheville, N.C.
Before opening his own restaurant, Bruce's Fabulous Foods, Brown worked for a time at a Marion restaurant owned by another couple.
"Their specialty was one cheesecake flavor — pumpkin — and it was really good," Brown said.
He began tinkering with the recipe, which led to other flavors.
Once he opened his restaurant in 2001, Brown grew his cheesecake lineup to 52 flavors, and eventually to 135. Most are available via his mail-order business.
"Some have soft toppings," Brown said. "We can't vacuum-seal those."
Brown's appearance on "Frankenfood" came about from a combination of factors including his appearances as a "resident chef" of sorts on the local morning show of Asheville's ABC affiliate, his friendship with TV casting director Brooklyn Bagwell and a piece of cheesecake.
Bagwell had eaten at his restaurant before moving to New York City, where she began working for an entertainment company casting for the series "Doomsday Preppers."
During a visit to his restaurant, Brown served Bagwell a piece of his Halloween Hangover cheesecake as they rehashed old times.
Bagwell liked the dessert well enough to tell Brown she thought it would be perfect for the new Spike TV reality food competition program.
"She got me hooked up with the casting director and I sent him a video audition," Brown said.
Brown wound up among 40 chefs from 350-plus who auditioned for the new show, whose resident celebrity judges John Capon and Tony Luke Jr. are joined by a rotating panel of guest judges to discover new and unusual dishes.
Brown made it to the final eight contestants.
"They ended up showing five of the eight finalists and chose two to earn a $10,000 cash prize, and get their concoction onto the menu of a New York City restaurant," Brown said.
Unfortunately, Brown just missed the cut, placing third.
"Both judges told me I would have been next in line," Brown said.

Gary Latanich 2012 Congressional Candidate Arkansas District 1
Biography of Gary Latanich from Gary Latanich for Congress
Gary was born the oldest of five children to a working class family, he learned the values of hard work, faith, and commitment to family at a young age.
After graduating high school in 1966, Gary enlisted in the Air Force and was deployed to Vietnam during the height of the conflict. After four years in the Air Force, Gary returned home and married his wife, Rose Mary, after meeting her at an Air Force dance in Omaha, Nebraska. With memories of an economic history class taken while in the Air Force and financial aid from the GI Bill, Gary enrolled in college.
In 1978, Gary graduated with a Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Nebraska. He moved to Jonesboro in 1981 and began his career at Arkansas State University. Applying the values of hard work and commitment to his ASU family, Gary worked his way up at Arkansas State, serving 11 years as the Assistant Dean and director of the Master of Business Administration degree program. Together, Gary and Rose Mary have raised their five children in Jonesboro. Gary has been active in his Catholic faith, including a long stint as the teacher for the Confirmation classes.
As a lifelong true-blue Democrat, serving in office has always been on Gary's mind. He worked on (then Governor) President Clinton's Economic Advisory Board. He was President of the Missouri Valley Economic Association and more recently was the Contributing Economics Editor for the Jonesboro Sun. Now with commitments to his family met, Gary Latanich is again interested in serving his community.
Gary realizes that being a Democrat is about more than just talking about "tough choices." Being a Democrat is standing up for Democratic values, working toward economic solutions that work. Gary realizes that a better economy isn't just for working families, but something that will benefit all Arkansans, from the small business owner looking to expand, to the family farmer looking for more efficient means of getting products to market, to the manufacturer looking to build its next factory, to the college student looking to start their career.
Gary understands a focus on education is necessary if Arkansans are to compete, not just with neighboring states but countries like India, China and Brazil. And lastly, Gary Latanich believes that effective government isn't just finger pointing and bickering. It's demonstrating the knowledge and the desire to craft solutions to pressing problems – that you have the ability to bring people together and work for Arkansas and America.
Gary Latanich is ready to work for Arkansas.

Having just watched the Lucian Bute-Denis Grachev fight, here are some of my observations.
Firstly, I thought the fight was quite close. I don't think Grachev quite did enough to deserve the decision, but I don't see how anyone could have scored this fight 118-110 in favour of Bute either. To be honest, I wasn't that impressed with Bute. Sure, he boxed well at times against a limited opponent. However, I thought he was looking to land his left uppercut too much which lead to him not throwing the jab enough. This is why Grachev was able to close the distance every time he came forward. Bute should have been circling counter clockwise behind his jab, away from Grachev's right hand and looking to land his straight left. Instead, it was Grachev who always managed to get his lead foot on the outside of Bute's which put him in position to land his trailing power hand.
Notice how Grachev's lead foot is always outside of Bute's lead foot as he's throwing the right hand. This is the golden rule when facing a southpaw.
Grachev didn't bother throwing the jab much himself. He didn't need to. Because Bute was standing side on without using his right hand, Grachev was able to close the distance nearly every time he came forward.
Notice how Bute's right hand is redundant -low and not in any position to defend or attack. A good jab may have blunted Grachev's advance. Instead, as Grachev comes forward, Bute doesn't provide any resistance and Grachev can get inside easily without having to throw a jab himself.
Bute spent too much time standing there with his right hand below his waist looking to land his uppercut from behind his right shoulder, obviously in an attempt to disguise the blow.
The jab is the most important weapon for any fighter against a pressure fighter. Bute didn't use it nearly enough.
Bute's best moments finally came in the 12th round, when, you guessed it, he began circling counter clockwise along with throwing his jab and straight left hand.
With his back to the ropes, Bute throws a jab, followed by a straight left, before exiting on the blind side of Grachev. This is what Bute should have been doing the whole fight.
More from the 12th round.
Bute throws a right jab followed by a left straight.
Denis Grachev isn't a bad fighter at all. Yes, he carries his hands low and he looks rugged at times but he's got a good understanding of positioning and he's also very effective at avoiding shots by moving his head at the last moment as he works his way inside.
Notice how Grachev slips a rare Bute jab as he's looking to close the distance.
Once inside, Grachev throws short, crisp punches. I felt as though Grachev could have gone to the body more when Bute was up on the ropes but apart from that, he did most things pretty well.
I think it's safe to say that Denis Grachev is better than what Bute's handlers had previously thought before the fight.
As for Bute, I'm not so sure. He was too predictable at times with the left uppercut. There were too many periods during the fight when Bute wasn't using his right hand much at all. I know he's constantly looking for left hand counters, but you can't do that without first being creative with the lead hand, otherwise you run the risk of allowing your opponent to walk you down. Bute should have been setting things up behind his jab along with shoulder and head feints. Apart from the jab, the right hook of Bute didn't feature enough either. Again, had Bute used his jab more, then he would have not only had a better chance of keeping Grachev from pushing him back, but his left hand counters would have been better disguised also. Maybe it was just me, but I thought Bute seemed like he was lacking in confidence too. In the past his left uppercut has looked like dynamite. Last night, I thought he seemed hesitant in fully committing to the shot as it definitely lacked the speed and snap that it used to have.
Going forwards, there's talk of a rematch with Carl Froch. Being brutally honest, I saw nothing from Bute last night that makes me feel a second fight would look any different from the first. In fact, I'd go as far to say that Froch would likely take Bute out even sooner next time. There's no way Bute will ever be able to hang with Froch if he continues to neglect the jab and throw nothing but left uppercuts without first setting them up. Also, I'm not 100% confident in Bute's punch resistance anymore either. Grachev didn't seem heavy handed to me but every time he landed clean, Bute seemed hurt and headed to the ropes. As we all know, once Bute has his back to the ropes, he doesn't seem to know how to defend well in that position.
Lucian Bute's far from finished as a fighter, but he can no longer be considered among the elite anymore. There are some out there that have never considered Bute among elite. Maybe he's been overrated all along? Looking at his last two fights, this could certainly prove to be the case.
It takes a while get your feet wet after such a devastating loss,.. so a mediocre performance is to be expected against such a game competitor like Grachev.
Bute was actually controlling at least 45-50% of his ring time against Froch. But Froch was able to take full advantage of the 40 - 50 seconds he trapped Bute along the ropes.
I agree with the author... Bute is not ready for Froch.
Froch will be in beast mode if they fight again.
I've always said that Bute was very, very limited. And as a pro, a protected super-hyped JOB! Danggit! WTF! I feel like a Nostradamus G. Hehe! Holla!
What da double fudge? Is B-Sug a southpaw or what? 'Cause da cat on da h-bag is straight-up in a lefty-time whup-@$$ pose. What goes? Holla!
Naw man,... I practice both sides on the bag. (both sides have to be trained equally)
but ima righty for life. holla.
Danggit! Lefties are da new right on! At all the top of postivism is a left hander! Even Prez O took down knuckle-headed lefty terrorist Osama. Now I know dat all the lefties in da O-State are voting for the lefty. And most of the righties are going that way. Holla!
I concur with most of what has been said but there seems to be alot of pertinent details that have been left out. 1)Bute was coming back from a devasting loss (that cannot be underpinned or paid lipservice to) 2) He chose a dangerous and underrated fighter in Grachev (who I believe is a very intelligent fighter despite the lack of still to be refined skills) 3)mention was made at the lack of firepower of Bute - well, the fight was at Light heavy. Benn, Eubank and most all fighters lose their power when going up - besides, even if he could carry the weight it was his first bout at that weight. (why the increase in weight?) 4) Butes infighting skills were certainly unappreciated on this and all forums - he had a great deal of balance and harmony with his back to the ropes - why is that? because he wanted to raise/amiliorate his weakness of fighting with his back to the ropes - he was simply great. 5)yes, he took some shots. He took some big shots which to me indicated a great deal of resilience and heart. Granted his defence does need more work.
I would recommend Bute take another fight before Froch. Incidentally Im a Froch fan but also like Bute. He can be arrogant at times and disparaging to his opponents but that is his prerogative. Karma did seem to pay him back some and more (dont laugh at opponents when they lie on the canvas writhing in pain from body shots etc -just go to your corner and wait).
The 12 rounds fight, as gruelling as it was, was absolutely perfect for Bute. I do believe he kind of looked down on Grachev a bit but probably has nothing but respect for him now.
Grachev should not be used as some kind of measuring stick for Bute's comeback, although it was inevitable. We will see alot more of this guy, and kudos from me, a pure boxing fan to someone who came from a MMA background that has adjusted so well.
I didnt like the look/sound of Grachev's corner - frankly they looked like numpties to me.
I recommend that Bute suck it up, accept that he was a superhype and stay the heck away from a rematch with Froch? Froch will rewhup dat arse. Holla!
Bute is officially done sick a fork in him.
Didn't see the fight but logged in just to say thanks to the author. I've always liked technical articles on boxing websites and have become frustrated by the generic "he needs to pressure his opponent" or "moved quickly behind the jab" comments. It's not easy doing these breakdowns especially when you're using screen captures and full-body features that show the foot positions. I'm a southpaw and getting to that outside position is not as easy as it looks. Righties always seem to know you're going for that foot placement and they try to counter it by either throwing small left hooks or moving/circling to their right and then popping you with the 1-2. Thanks again and more power to Mr. Wylie!
Who will win the Sergey Kovalev vs Andre Ward fight?

Windermere Cup
May 3, 2003
Seattle, Wash.; Montlake Cut
Washington Men's Head Coach
"They were tough conditions today. But you know what, it's like this more often than not. If you come out here and you're hoping for really good race conditions, you're kidding yourself. If you're reluctant and you're not willing to risk a fingernail or two, you're going to lose for sure. It's really rough at the start on this race course."
On Washington's varsity eight
"It was a pretty good row. They did what they had to do. They got a decent start, settled down and just sort of pushed the boat down the course. We're training to race 36 or 37 right now. That's what it takes to be competitive.
"The guys needed a little confidence boost. They went out there today and they've lost three races so far this year, albeit against the best crews in the country. We want to see if we can have a chance at beating these other guys at the end of the season, specifically Cal and Wisconsin. With young guys, they need some confidence and they need to have a good race. They need to be a little bit more successful. I don't think they thought it was a slam dunk at all, particularly at the starting line.
On completely changing the varsity eight lineup this week
"It was good. I plan on doing some more tinkering. We have time to do that right now. That's exactly where you want to be with young guys. You have to be able to have some choices and some options."
Washington Men's Varsity Eight Coxswain
"It was a good piece. We needed to win one. We needed to build up our confidence. This was a great low pressure situation to do it. We knew we were racing extremely fast teams but this race doesn't really count towards national rankings, so it was a pressure-free situation against some really, really good competition.
"We had a good start, the best start we've had so far, especially for the rough water. Then we just focused on settling right down into base and focusing on our own race. I didn't look out of the boat once until 1,000-meters down, to make sure we were rowing our own race, make sure we had our technique on. At 1,000-meters I looked around and then we just focused on putting more and more seats on them."
On this week's lineup changes
"Well, it certainly shows guys that nobody's seat is guaranteed and everybody has to perform if they want to hold onto their seat. It took us a little while to get used to it. We had a few shaky practices but the more miles we put in the lineup, the more comfortable you get."
Washington Women's Head Coach
"We had a little lead to begin with, by a few seats, and when we settled down to race pace, they were a little bit longer, a little bit more aggressive, more powerful. Their experience showed in the middle part of the race. I think our crew has a lot of confidence in their sprint. This was a little bit similar to our San Diego race, where in the middle part of the race, you're rowing along and then you have to attack in the last 500. I think they felt they could have attacked a little bit sooner. It was a great crew that beat us today. Our goal is to try and use that to propel us to a better performance at Pac-10s and at nationals.
"I thought we looked a little bit tired, but sometimes you look that way when you're trying to catch up. It's surprising how great you can look when you're in the lead and maybe not so good when you're not leading.
"I told them to congratulate Belarus. They rowed a great race today and that's what our sport is about."
Washington Women's Varsity Eight Coxswain
"They were an excellent crew, a very technical and very fast crew. We actually beat them off the line. We were up about three seats off the start and into our 20-high and sub-settle. We settled it down and found a good rhythm and they found a good rhythm as well. About 400-meters in, they started edging back up on us and they pulled up even with us and kept charging. We hit it hard, we fought hard and rowed our own race. I think we had a really good race. There are some points that we can excel a bit better on, but overall we rowed a good race. Belarus was a really good competitor. They were strong today.
United States Coxswain
"When you get an opportunity to race against the defending world champions you really just want to come with your best performance. They got the lead early and were sort of holding it on us. Somewhere just past halfway we broke a little bit on them and got a little bit of a lead. Then it stayed like that the rest of the way. For most of the way it was back-and-forth, neck-and-neck and they seemed to have advantage.
"I consider this like a preseason game and I don't think there are any upsets in preseason. It was just two crews coming out trying to get some racing experience. It's early, months before the world championships.
"This is my fourth trip to the Montlake Cut. Either seven or eight out of the nine guys had actually raced here before so everybody knew what it was going to be like. The only thing we weren't prepared for was that this seemed like a pro-USA crowd, so when we came under that bridge (Montlake Bridge), man it was loud. It was louder than I've ever heard it, so it was fantastic.
"This place is loud. Part of the reason why is that at the World Championships and the Olympics you are out in the middle of a lake and the fans on the side. Here, everybody's got the front row seat. Obviously, this is a city with good rowing fans. It was nice and loud and it definitely got us fired up."
Canada No. 3 seat
Former University of Washington rower from 1998-2001
"Any loss is disappointing. There is a unique relationship between crews when you are the defending champion. I think the United States took huge advantage of that aspect of the relationship between the two crews. They really capitalized on wanting to take down the defending champions. They were successful in doing that.
"It's May 3 and the World Championships are the last week of August. This is motivation. Losing a race is the greatest motivation there is. They did a great job and beat us very well. We're not going to walk around with our heads down, but we're definitely disappointed. We expected more from ourselves today and we have to go back to Victoria and work harder than we have."
Belarus National Team Technical Director
"I don't really have words to describe the excitement. It's overwhelming. To see so many people and so many eights all at once gives me goose-bumps. The girls just had an extreme amount of pleasure and lots of fun. Several of them had never left Belarus before. This is all very exciting. Their parents were a little bit concerned about going to America and all these things, but they have been called and told that the welcome has been really exceptional. We would have liked to have done a little better, but we feel good about the race."
Belarus stroke (No. 8 seat)
"I have so much emotion about the welcome we received. The friendliness of the local team was really wonderful. We had really worthy opponents and it felt good to compete against them."
President of the Polish Rowing Federation
"It is amazing that so many people watch this event. I have been at many events in my lifetime and only the Henley Regatta is so big and has so many people watching. It's very important for our athletes to be here and to see how popular rowing is in America."

It's that time again. Back to school commercials are popping up all over your television, school supplies are flying off the shelves, mornings and evenings are a little cooler, and the days are getting a bit shorter. Fall is right around the corner, but before you say goodbye to those lazy days of summer, here are five organic outings you should give a go.
One- Visit an organic winery
They don't call Virginia wine country for nothing. Ok, so they don't call Virginia wine country, but they could. In fact, in 2012, Wine Enthusiast Magazine voted Virginia one of the top 10 wine destinations in the world. There's no shortage of organic wineries near Arlington either. Pearmund Cellars is one of Virginia's sustainable wineries. Located not too far away in Broad Run, it is a picturesque, eco-friendly destination to enjoy some award winning wine.
Two- Pick your own produce
Fresh is best, and it doesn't get any fresher than picking your own produce from a local farm. Right now is the best time to gather some summer fruits and veggies like blackberries, blueberries, peaches, apples, tomatoes, and corn. For a list of pick your own farms in northern Virginia visit pickyourown.org.
Three- Try eco-friendly camping
Disconnect from everything for a while with an eco-friendly camping outing. Try somewhere like Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge, just off the beaten path near Virginia Beach, Virginia. Kayak the black water channels of Back Bay while you reconnect with nature.
Four- Relax at an organic spa
After roughing it, unwind in one of Northern Virginia's organic spas. The Boutique Spa at the Ritz Carlton, Georgetown has an expansive menu of organic treatment choices. From organic facials to their blueberry organic scrub/wrap, you'll be sure to find the right eco-treatment for you.
Five- Plant an organic garden for the fall
The end of summer is a perfect time to try your hand at growing your own vegetables for fall. It's pretty easy to do but maintaining them organically, without harsh pesticides takes a little bit if research. Visit Gardner's Supply Company's website for a little organic gardening 101.
So, while the summer is drawing to a close it doesn't have to be a drag. Keep it interesting and green by trying out some of these ventures and you'll be refreshed and ready for fall!

Mechanical Energy
Energy is the energy of motion of any moving object.
Work-Energy Theorem:
4.1 kg box of books is lifted vertically from rest a distance
of 1.6 m by an upward applied force of 60.0 N. Find (a) the work
done by the applied force, (b) the work done by gravity, and
(c) the final speed of the box.
figure shows two industrial spies sliding an initially stationary
225 kg floor safe a displacement of
magnitude 8.50 m, straight toward their truck. The push of
Spy 001 is 12.0 N, directed at an angle of downward
from the horizontal: the pull of
Spy 002 is 10.0 N, directed at above
the horizontal. The magnitudes and directions
of these forces do not change as the safe moves, and the floor
and safe make frictionless contact. (a) What is the net work
done on the safe by forces and during
the displacement ?
(b) During the displacement, what is the work
on the safe by the gravitational force and
what is the work done
on the safe by the normal force from
the floor? (c) The safe is initially stationary. What is its
speed at
the end of the 8.50 m displacement?
