Netball Positions
Bib: letter "C" on it.
Partner: Other teams Centre
Where can they go? Everywhere EXCEPT for the two half circles at the end of the court.
Centre starts in the circle and when the whistle blows tries to pass to Wing Attack or Goal Attack. Centre tries to get the ball to the people in the half circles.
To be Centre you have to be fit and a fast runner. It doesn't matter if you are a short person or if you are tall. You just have to be able to be aggressive and run fast.
Wing Attack
Bib: "WA" on it.
Partner: Other team's Wing Defence
Where can they go? Can NOT go in either of the half circles, or the third closest to the other team's goal.
Wing Attack starts on the line and tries to get the Centre pass. They then have to do the best they can to get the ball in the half circle.
To be Wing Attack you don't have to be particularly tall or short. It is good to be fast and aggressive and good at catching and passing.
Wing Defence
Bib: has "WD" on it.
Partner: Other team's Wing Attack
Where can they go? Two thirds, not the one nearest the goal that you score in, and they also can't go in the half circle.
Wing Defence tries to stop the Wing Attack from getting the Centre pass. They try for the whole game to get the ball away from their partner, Wing Attack, and get the ball to people that can go nearer the goal.
To be Wing Defence height doesn't really matter, though it helps to be taller than your partner. You have to be really determined and quite aggressive and good at intercepting.
Goal Attack
Bib: "GA" on it.
Partner: Other team's Goal Defence
Where can they go? Goal Attack can go in two thirds, just not the one closest to the other team's goal. They can go in the half circle and shoot goals.
Goal Attack can get the Centre pass, but most often they stay near-ish the goal especially when the ball comes near so they can shoot goals.
Goal Attacks find it easier if they are tall, obviously because it means they are closer to the goal when they shoot, but there are some great shorter Goal Attacks too.
Goal Defence
Bib: Has "GD" on it.
Partner: Other team's Goal Attack.
Where can they go? Inside the goal circle to help defend their goal, NOT SHOOT. They can go up to the centre third and can not shoot goals.
Goal Defence tries to stop goal attack from receiving the centre pass. Like any defending position they stick with their partner and try to stop them getting the ball.
Goal defence find it easier if they are tall so they can defend more easily. They should be fast and good at intercepting.
Goal Shoot
Bib: Has "GS" on it.
Partner: Goal Keep
Where can they go? Goal Shoots have to stay inside the half circle so they can shoot easily when the ball gets to them.
Goal Shoot has to get the ball from someone and shoot goals.
Goal shoots find it easier if they are tall, obviously because that gets them just that little bit closer to the goal. To be a successful Goal Shoot you should have a good eye and be good at shooting goals.
Goal KeepBib: has GK on it.
Partner: Goal Shoot
Where can they go? They can go only in the other team's goal half circle.
Goal Keep has to stop Goal Shoot from getting the ball and shooting goals.
Goal Keeps find it easier if they are tall because it makes it easier to defend their partner. They need to be quick thinking and be able to quickly snatch the ball.

We have one, fixed ad placement on my site. I basically want to show my author's Google AdSense code for 80% of the impressions, and my AdSense code for the remaining 20% on all of their blog posts.
All other pages, (homepage, categories, tags, search, etc.) need to equally rotate the impressions (unless this plugin will rotate based on author performance, and I don't think it does)

is it possible to add custom fields to a widget?
if yes, how?
I'm not entirely sure I understand your question. If you want to add extra fields for text/links/stuff to a widget then yeah you can do that. You'll have to build your own widget with the items you want.
that's what i want, for now, i know only how to add custom fields to post or page, but i dont know how to build my own widget with extra fields,
if possible a tut or a code!
There are lots of tutorials, that's what google is for. Here are some links I collected for you.

This was a really nice salad. One thing I would do differently next time though is to use canned mandarins only because I like the sweet taste in the salad and I had some oranges that were really difficult to peel the skins off of. Still, if you prefer it fresh and don't mind the time it is still a great salad as is. Thanks! Made for Aussie/Kiwi swap #18.
This has really pretty colors and the orange compliments the avocado nicely. It gets a nice crunch from the pecans. Thanks Mischka!

A molecular dynamic method for cluster implantation simulation which is a potential technology for shallow junction formation in integrated circuits manufacture, aimed at microelectronics application, is presented in this paper. Accurate geometric structures of boron clusters including H atoms are described by the model. A potential function taking a form of combining the ZBL and the SW potentials is applied to model interaction among the atoms in the boron cluster. Simulations of B monomer, B10H14 and B18H22 are performed. The distributions of both B and H in monomer and cluster implantation are verified by SIMS data. It is notable that with the cluster model presented, the simulation can reproduce the difference of monomer and cluster implantation very well

"Speculation is heightening" Deutsche Telekom (DTEGY.PK) will announce an iPhone (AAPL +1.3%) deal for T-Mobile USA at its Dec. 6-7 analyst day, writes Merrill's Scott Craig. T-Mobile's failure to provide the iPhone is a big reason for its dismal performance, but it was only last week its COO suggested Apple's terms don't make economic sense for the carrier, now set to merge with MetroPCS (PCS). If the Sprint deal is any guide, those terms include giant purchase requirements. Two days ago, UBS wrote T-Mobile may offer the iPhone in early 2013.

Phones will always sell if they salesmen are given the proper "incentives". Heck, even Nokia+WP8 has figured out how to get any market share in Italy.
That's your problem. HTC is crap. Samsung is the premier manufacturer.
T-Mo will "formally" get the iphone soon. If you saw their CTO talking after the merger announcement, you heard make reference to it. Inferring - it's coming, although he didn't say it that way.

Liberal Professor: We Used "Too Much Force" Capturing Boston Bomber.
Liberal professor Ruth O'Brien from The City University of New York thinks we may have been a little too tough on the Boston Marathon Bomber who was killed by the police. O'Brien, who's the author of the forthcoming book, Out of Many, One: Obama and the Third American Political Tradition, chided the Boston police for using "too much force" when they killed, Tamerlan Tsarnaev. Sure, he may have killed a lot of people and their lives may have been at risk apprehending him, but they should have been a little kinder and gentler, darn it (Maybe his brother, who ran over him in a car escaping a shootout with police, should have given up instead of making him into a speed bump).
Now we have captured the two terrorists from Chechnya who come from the troubled region that is Muslim, but we cannot understand their motives, not yet. And Obama encourages us to refrain.
This said, the mortuary pictures of the older brother of the two are extremely disturbing, raising questions as to whether the Boston Police Department captured him with too much force.
…Boston has great resonance for terrorists. Selecting the Boston Marathon has great impact and it is going to be felt among the upper middle class: healthy, white, high-income earners who are non-smokers and non-drinkers (though maybe pancake-and-syrup eaters) – those who attend the Boston Marathon or watch it.
I do hope we all watch the cleanup or the damage control and hear the words Obama uttered — we should be careful not just to bracket the motives of these terrorists — but also make sure to remember that we are an immigrant nation.
…The United States that I love hunts down terrorists AND follows human rights during capture.
…We accept difference, as a nation, and we should champion our greatest strength — inclusivity — at these extreme moments if we want the character of the United States not to be judged harshly by the global community.
Yeah, instead of calling for justice, we should be calling for inclusivity….or something.

Roland Joffe, the director who brought you "The Killing Fields" and "Mission" is now working on a film that focuses on the early years of Jose Maria Escriva de Balaguer, founder of the Opus Dei. It is to be titled: "There Be Dragons."
Here's the synopis from the Internet Movie Database:
Celebrate World Youth Day! Get $10 off an NCR gift subscription. Enter code YOUTH at the checkout page.
It's in pre-production, filming scheduled for Spain and Argentina. Expect a 2010 release date.
I have seen no mention of who will play St. Escriva. Apparently neither Tom Hanks or Ron Howard are attached to this flick. I'll have to check with our John Allen, who wrote the book on Opus Dei, to see if he's a consultant.

- 2 tablespoons plain flour
- 1⁄2 cup milk
- 1⁄2 cup cream
- 1⁄3 cup dry white wine

- Put the sauce in a mixer bowl and add the salmon and mix on medium speed until smooth.
- Put into serving bowl and cover and refrigerate overnight.
Most Helpful
Since I have never had pate' I can only describe the flavors. I enjoyed it very much. It has a good aftertaste. Made to specs except I used red wine as that is all I had on-hand, and although not a recommended wine for fish, it went well with this one. -Buddha-

Tuesday Player Matchups: The Castro Revolution
There are a ton of games today and some nice matchups. I'm looking forward to seeing Cliff Lee vs. Josh Beckett and Tommy Hanson vs. Michael Pineda and Johnny Cueto vs. David Price and Barry Zito vs. Rodrigo Lopez, oh wait, scratch that last one.
Let's take a look see at some of the better matchups for you FanDueler and droolers.
Starlin Castro: Being a Cubs fan I often want to punch and throw stuff at small woodland creatures, but watching Starlin Castro this season has eased the rage to near acceptable levels. He's been hitting like Billy Williams, Ron Santo and Ernie Banks all wrapped up in a Chicago style hot dog that can hit, drink an Old Style and eat itself all at the same time. He's 12 for his last 28 and he's also near the top in the NL in average, hitting .325. Barry Zito (late game) has given up 2 hits in 3 at bats to Castro and has pitched God-awful this season. I'm going with Darlin' Starlin in the MLB Line Drive today. How 'bout you?
Billy Butler: He is nothing if not consistent. He's not going to blow you away with his power, but he's going to get on base. He's batting .329 in June and hits Clayton Richard well, going 5 for 9 off him with a homer.
Paul Konerko: He is 2 for 5 off Jason Hammel with 2 donkaroos and just happens to be hitting with the power of Zeus.
A.J. Pierzynski: It hurts me to my very core being to recommend starting Pierstinkski for anything, but he has been hitting well of late. 9 for his last 20 to be exact and he also hits Jason Hammel at a 3 for 7 clip and a homer.
Michael Bourn: His identity was never in question, but his fantasy usefulness has been. He might not be able to drive a car backwards through a subway at top speed, but he has been playing baseball well lately. He is 4 for 7 off CJ Wilson and is 8 for his last 25. If he can get on base he'll get you a steal or two as well.
Adrian Gonzalez: Really this guy can do no wrong right now. He'd hitting a crazy .443 in June and .500 in the last week. But what's this? He face the studly Clifford "The Big Red Pitching Machine" Lee? (Yeah, that nickname won't catch on) Let's take a look at how he's done against Mr. Lee. He's a crazy ass 7 for 10 off him with a home run. That'll do.
J.J. Hardy: J.J. hardly is a walker, but he does swing for the fences. (I crack myself up) He's a hefty 34 for 92 with 8 home runs in June, which is a .370 average and in his last 7 games he is 10 for 27 with 2 homers, which is also a .370 average, spoooooky! He is 3 for 9 off of Kyle Lohse for his career, so there's that as well.
Johnny Cueto: JC hasn't allowed more than 3 runs in any of his 9 starts this season and is 3-0 with a .43 ERA in his last 3 starts. The Rays aren't exactly chump change in the hitting department, but Cueto likes getting out of the band box in Cincy and is 3-1 with a 1.32 ERA on the road.
Ryan Vogelsong: In the first game of the double header the Cubs get Vogelsong who hasn't given up more than 2 runs in his last 9 starts. He is 5-1 with a 1.86 ERA on the season and faces a Cubs team who is averaging 3.5 runs a game in June.
Daniel Hudson: the Indians are batting .218 in June as a team. That's 30th in the league. If my calculations are correct, that's not very good. Hudson has won his last 6 decisions and is 3-0 with a 2.05 ERA in his last 3.
Besides Fanduel.com, Chet has written for the N.Y. Times: Fifth Down Blog, Tree.com, and his own sites Razzball and Third Coast Sports. He is extremely/obsessively active on Twitter and will answer your questions as best he can if you throw them @ChetRazzball.

Candidate filing deadline is MondayStaff Report | January 23,2013Despite what it says on the forms, petitions to run for local office are due in to the City Clerk's office Monday.
Paperwork distributed by City Hall gives the deadline as Jan. 30. City Clerk Henry Heck said this was an error attributed to the fact that petitioners have two days to withdraw their petitions and keep their names off the ballot.
"It was just that the dates were mixed up," he said. "Even though the deadline is the 28th, it's not an official petition until the 30th."
Heck said he tried to get notices to everyone who took out petitions.
"If Bob Smith comes out of the hills on the 29th and says 'here's my petition,' we'll look at that then," Heck said.MORE IN This Just InEmployee charged

WASHINGTON (AP) -- U.S. home prices slipped from November to December, and the year-over-year increase slowed, likely a result of weaker sales at the end of last year.
Real estate data provider CoreLogic said Tuesday that prices dipped 0.1 percent in December. It was the third straight month-to-month drop. Home prices had risen for eight straight months through September.
For all of 2013, prices rose a healthy 11 percent. That was roughly equal to the 11.4 percent price increase for the 12 months that ended in November.
CoreLogic's price figures aren't adjusted for seasonal patterns, such as cold winter weather, which typically slows sales.
Still, home sales slowed last fall, even excluding the effects of cold weather. A tight supply of available homes and a jump in mortgage rates over the summer have discouraged many buyers.
In addition, a measure of signed contracts plummeted in December, its seventh straight decline. A one- to two-month lag usually exists between a signed contract and a completed sale.
Higher mortgage rates have disrupted housing's recovery. Rates rose a full percentage point over the summer as speculation mounted that the Federal Reserve would soon wind down an $85-billion-a-month bond purchase program. The bond buying was intended to boost growth.
The Fed pared its purchases to $75 billion in January, and at the end of the month it said it would reduce them further, to $65 billion, this month. Fed officials said the economy was improving sufficiently to slowly reduce it stimulus.
The average rate on a 30-year mortgage fell to 4.32 percent last week, according to mortgage buyer Freddie Mac. That's still low by historical standards.
Despite the slowdown in the second half of last year, home sales totaled nearly 5.1 million in 2013, the strongest showing since 2006. That's not far from the annual pace of 5.5 million that analysts say is consistent with a healthy housing market.
Most economists expect sales and prices to keep rising this year, but at a slower pace. They forecast that both will likely rise around 5 percent, down from double-digit gains in 2013.
Steady job gains are putting more people to work and enabling them to buy a home. And rising prices should encourage more owners to sell their homes. A larger supply of available homes would likely boost sales.

In trying to reduce the size of my MVC controllers, I am refactoring a lot of logic out into services (though this same issue would apply if it was being factored into models). I'm often finding that I was directly setting
ViewData and/or
TempData with information I wanted to be displayed to the user, like:
var repoUser = new UserRepository();
var foundUser = repoUser.GetUser(userId);
if (foundUser == null) {
ViewData["ErrorMessage"] = "Could not find user with ID {0}.".FormatWith(userId);
return View("UsersRegister");
Of course, as soon as you move into a service class, you lose direct access to
TempData, and methods like
View() or
RedirectToAction(), so I'm trying to figure out the best practice for dealing with it. Two solutions come to mind:
Create a class containing various pieces of information about what the controller should do, to be passed back from the services, like:
public class ResponseInfo { public string Name { get; set; } public bool DoRedirect { get; set; } public object RedirectRouteValues { get; set; } public string InfoMessage { get; set; } public string ErrorMessage { get; set; } }
Try and allow the service methods to have direct access to things like
TempData, eg.:
public ActionResult ToggleUserAttended(int eventId, int userId, HttpRequestBase request, TempDataDictionary tempData, ViewDataDictionary viewData, Func<string, object, ActionResult> redirectAction) { //... var repoUser = new UserRepository(); var foundUser = repoUser.GetUser(userId); if (foundUser == null) { tempData["ErrorMessage"] = "Could not find user with ID {0}.".FormatWith(userId); return redirectAction("UsersRegister", new { id = eventId, returnUrl = request.QueryString["returnUrl"] }); } //... }
... and then in the controller:
return _svcEvent.ToggleUserAttended(123, 234, Request, TempData, ViewData, (name, routeVals) => RedirectToAction(name, routeVals));
For number 1, the controller would have more logic to do in looking at the
ResponseInfo object and determining whether to redirect, display a view, plugging the error or info message into
TempData or
ViewData, etc. Number 2 would pretty much allow a one-liner controller, but you're making the service very aware of controller-specific stuff. However, the service is always going to be closely tied in with the controller anyway so is this a problem? Would 1 or 2 be best practice, or something else I haven't listed?

FanDuel NFL Bargain Bin – Week 6
It's Week 6 in the NFL and once again it's time to ferret out the bargain players at each position on FanDuel. Even though player prices are beginning to stabilize and more truly reflect performance through the first five weeks, there is always a bargain to be found. A team full of bargains probably won't get too far, but taking just one or two of these players can be a great way to afford the surefire high-priced stars at other positions so you can enter the fray with a formidable lineup.
This article will highlight three undervalued players and one super cheap option to consider at each position this week. The list will only include players if they fall below the following salary levels by position:
QB – 3 Players under $7,000 & 1 Freebie under $6,000
RB – 3 Players under $6,000 & 1 Freebie under $5,000
WR – 3 Players under $6,000 & 1 Freebie under $5,000
TE – 3 Players under $6,000 & 1 Freebie under $5,000
K – 3 Players under $5,200
D – 3 Players under $5,200
Bargain QBs:
1. Terrelle Pryor, OAK @ KC ($6,600) – Pryor has now topped the bargain QB list in four of the last five weeks and has turned in consistently good value aside from missing Week 4 with a concussion. Pryor's price has remained stable despite a series of productive games every week that he's played, with the odd exception of his Week 2 dud against bottom-feeding Jacksonville. His QB rating has increased each week, rising as high as 135.7 in Week 5 as he had his first game of the season with two passing touchdowns. His numbers as a passer overall, while efficient, are a bit lackluster with low yardage and just four touchdown passes and two interceptions over four games. His productivity in the rushing game is what has buoyed his numbers, with 229 rushing yards on the season. He has yet to run one into the end zone, but with those yards he ranks 23rd across all positions and third among QB's in rushing yards on the season despite the missed week. Kansas City is a tough matchup, but Pryor's versatility makes him likely to put up value numbers even if Oakland loses the game, especially if he gets some designed runs to make up for the current lack of depth in Oakland's backfield.
2. Alex Smith, KC v. OAK ($6,500) – The other quarterback in the Chiefs-Raiders game is an equally good bargain play and possibly even better given the preferable matchup against the Raiders porous secondary. Coming off of his worst game of the season to date with 245 yards and no touchdowns with an interception in Week 5, FanDuel users may be a bit hesitant to take Smith, particularly because of his reputation for being conservative and unexplosive compared to other fantasy options at his position. It's easy to fall into the trap of judging a player solely on their performance from the prior week, which in Smith's case would obscure the 288 yards and three touchdowns he had the week before that against the Giants, as well as the 161 rushing yards he's piled up already this year. The Raiders aren't quite as weak defensively as the Giants, but they offer Smith a good chance at reaching 250 passing yards and two touchdowns, as well as getting at least the 18 rushing yards he needs to match his previous career high. Those numbers will be enough to match or outpace many of the more expensive options on the board.
3. Joe Flacco, BAL v. GB ($6,600) – There haven't been many good things to say about Joe Flacco yet this season as he has looked absolutely terrible completing just 57.7% of his passes for 1,360 yards with five touchdowns and an ugly eight interceptions. Still, with his price at its lowest level in recent memory and a fantastic matchup against the shootout oriented Packers, Flacco stands a good chance at looking more like he did against Denver in Week 1 than the other four games he's played. Not that he was by any means perfect in Week 1, but facing a team that plays at a similar pace to Green Bay, Flacco managed 362 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions that day. I think he can come close to or surpass those numbers this week, which would make him quite the value play.
Freebie: Mike Glennon, TB v. PHI ($5,500) – As usual the list of quarterbacks available under $6,000 in salary is hideous and uninspiring. That said, out of the class of options including Glennon, Chad Henne, and Brandon Weeden this week, I would absolutely recommend Glennon against the friendly Philadelphia defense. Glennon started the Buccaneers Week 4 contest against the Cardinals and did not do much with his 43 pass attempts, completing just 24 of them for 193 yards, a touchdown, and two interceptions. Of course, Arizona has been much more effective at stopping the pass than the Eagles have this year and if Glennon sees another 40 passing attempts in Week 6, he should be able to do more with them this time around. I'm not sure that Glennon is the guy to make Bucs fans forget about Josh Freeman, but with a couple weeks of practice in the books as the main guy in Tampa Bay, his numbers should be on an upward trajectory.
Bargain RBs:
1. Willis McGahee , CLE v. DET ($4,800) – I've been a little hesitant to jump on the McGahee bandwagon after he took over the feature back reins in Cleveland following the trade of Trent Richardson to Indianapolis. It's always difficult for a player to quickly transition from watching the games to participating in them, but now that McGahee's had a few weeks of practice and playing time to adapt to the Cleveland offense, his chances of producing are much better. Add in the fact that he's playing against one of the weakest run defenses in the league, with Detroit allowing 5.3 yards per carry and five rushing touchdowns so far in 2013, and Willis starts looking like the best running back play under $6,000 this week. With Brian Hoyer going down for the season in Week 5, Cleveland seems more likely to focus on the run to keep Brandon Weeden from having any more impact on the game than necessary. McGahee has done little with his chances so far, gaining just 2.6 yards per carry, but he did get 26 carries and a touchdown in Week 5 and could do the same in Week 6.
2. Pierre Thomas, NO @ NE ($5,900) – Thomas is coming off of his best game of the season in Week 5, but it wasn't due to his rushing skills. Despite receiving 19 carries, by far his most of the season, Thomas managed just 36 rushing yards. Fortunately for him, he added nine catches on nine targets for 55 yards and two receiving touchdowns. When you think about New Orleans pass-catching backs you think Darren Sproles, who is also having a fine season, but Thomas has morphed into a receiving back as well catching an incredible 28 of his 30 targets on the season for 166 yards and the two touchdowns he scored last week. That's more catches and a better percentage than Sproles, who has caught 26 of 31 targets for 308 yards and one receiving touchdown. Of course, Thomas does lack some of the burst that makes Sproles so dangerous in racking up almost twice as many receiving yards over two fewer receptions. That said, Thomas is on pace to double his previous career high in receptions, and at $5,900 he is pretty much a poor man's version of Sproles these days.
3. BenJarvus Green-Ellis, CIN @ BUF ($5,800) – The value of Green-Ellis had been in a freefall due to the rise of Giovani Bernard until BenJarvus retook the lead in their committee in Week 5, rushing 19 times for 67 yards and a touchdown. Green-Ellis has been relatively ineffective with his touches, gaining just 2.9 yards per carry, but he has scored three times. Out of the two Bengals backs I would rather have Bernard, but Green-Ellis is the one available for less than $6,000 in salary this week. Buffalo is not an easy matchup for running backs, so expectations should be tempered, but it all comes down to workload and if Green-Ellis can get 15-20 carries again he has a chance at outproducing his price.
Freebie: Zac Stacy, STL @ HOU ($4,900) – Stacy took over the Rams' starting running back job in Week 5 and did a pretty good job with the opportunities he got despite out-carrying Daryl Richardson by only one carry. With 78 yards on 14 rushes, Stacy averaged a strong 5.6 yards per carry, albeit against a terrible Jacksonville defense. Houston will offer much more resistance, but opponents have been able to run on them to the tune of 4.2 yards per carry and four touchdowns, and if Stacy can stay healthy the whole game he should surpass 20 carries. That gives him a good shot at 80 yards, and if he can add a touchdown to that he will be great value at his bargain price.
Bargain WRs:
1. Dwayne Bowe, KC v. OAK ($5,900) – Bowe has really fallen from grace since the beginning of 2012, but he is still a talented receiver who has a consistent quarterback delivering him the ball 6-8 times per game. While Bowe has only managed 183 receiving yards and two touchdowns on the year, he has been targeted with decent volume each week except against Philly in Week 3 when the Chiefs didn't really need to throw to win the game. The same reasons I like Alex Smith this week against Oakland apply to Bowe, and he should continue his pattern of alternating weeks with a touchdown, even if the yardage totals are fairly pedestrian. He's definitely living off his name to a large degree in fantasy these days, but with his price dropping below $6,000 you're no longer paying for that name.
2. Denarius Moore, OAK @ KC ($5,000) – Moore has developed some nice chemistry with his quarterback Terrelle Pryor and has continued to be much more effective and efficient with his targets than he ever has in past seasons. It was another fine game for Moore in Week 5, catching five of eight targets for 84 yards and a touchdown. That brings the season totals for Denarius to 317 yards and three touchdowns, which paint his miniscule $5,000 price tag as quite a bit out of whack. After all, those numbers mean Moore has more yards this year than Wes Welker, Calvin Johnson, Marques Colston, Vincent Jackson, Larry Fitzgerald, and many other higher priced options. Kansas City is probably the best passing defense in the league, which is the only thing holding back Moore from being the top bargain of the week. Oakland is likely to need to throw more in this game than they have all year, so even meeting resistance Moore should be able to continue to outshine his price tag.
3. Terrance Williams, DAL v. WSH ($5,600) – Williams was one of the best plays of Week 5 standing in for Miles Austin and catching all four of his targets, which he somehow turned into 151 yards thanks largely to an 83-yard touchdown. Four targets is not exactly something to get excited about, but he did have 8 targets the week before against San Diego. With Austin likely to return at least in a limited fashion in Week 6, it would be unwise to expect tons of targets or another 83-yard touchdown, but Williams should still get some looks in this projected shootout and depending on how much Austin plays he could be a more stealthy value play than last week.
Freebie: Keenan Allen, SD v. IND ($4,500) – Allen is a fantastic play this week for his price after two solid games in a row and a particularly spectacular game in Week 5, when he caught six of nine targets for 115 yards and a touchdown. With Malcom Floyd hitting IR, there is a big role available for Allen in what has been a very strong San Diego passing attack this season. In a way, he's the new Eddie Royal, except he's actually much bigger and better than Royal and should be able to continue his productive ways while Royal fades away. It's tempting to think of Allen as a play-at-all-costs option this week, but it is important to remember he is a rookie and rookie receivers tend to have their ups and downs almost without fail. There are also quite a few good options at receiver this week across a wide variety of price ranges, meaning Allen is just one of many potential good choices in Week 6.
Bargain TEs:
1. Garrett Graham, HOU v. STL ($5,100) – I love Garrett Graham this week as he replaces the injured Owen Daniels as Houston's number one tight end. Daniels always gets a lot of targets and many of those could go Graham's way in Week 6. Of course, Graham had already managed 141 yards and three touchdowns prior to the injury to Daniels, which makes him seem a lot more reliable than the average replacement tight end. He also is lucky to face the Rams' unsightly defense which has allowed 11 passing touchdowns against just three interceptions this season. It can be tough to forego the higher priced studs at the tight end position, particularly Jimmy Graham (no relation), but if you are going cheap at the position this week it's hard to think of a better value play than Houston's Graham.
2. Jermichael Finley, GB @ BAL ($5,900) – Finley makes the bargain tight end list for the second straight week after catching all six of his targets in Week 5, although he only managed 32 yards on those catches and did not catch a touchdown for the first time in a game he's played this year. Finley has never quite reached his potential due to the vast amount of explosive receiving options in Green Bay, but this week he gets to face a Baltimore defense that is allowing about 10 points per game to opposing tight ends. Finley could get some red zone looks this week and with the efficiency he's shown with his targets, catching 17 of 22 on the year, he should capitalize on any opportunities he does receive.
3. Coby Fleener, IND @ SD ($5,900) – Fleener is coming off of a letdown in Week 5 with just two catches on three targets for 15 yards. That's the kind of game that will make FanDuel users avoid a tight end, but this week Fleener gets to face San Diego's appalling pass defense. Andrew Luck will likely throw the ball quite a bit and Fleener's inconsistent target numbers should bounce back up to the 6-8 range with a good chance at getting a look in the red zone.
Freebie: Brent Celek, PHI @ TB ($4,800) – Celek has been hit or miss this year with most of his value residing entirely in his touchdowns. Even the meager yardage he gains often comes on his touchdown receptions, so he is a boom or bust pick without huge upside. But, with no Charles Clay available with the Dolphins on bye, Celek is best of the worst among the low-priced tight end options this week. The Eagles will likely throw a bit more than usual with Nick Foles manning the quarterback position as Michael Vick recuperates, and Foles has shown a preference for throwing to his tight ends and particularly Celek in the past.
Bargain Ks:
1. Nick Folk, NYJ v. PIT ($5,000) – Folk has been clutch this year hitting all 11 of his field goal attempts through the season's first five weeks, including two game-winners. He has yet to receive an attempt from beyond 50 yards, something that will inevitably change and could happen this week against Pittsburgh. I see a lot of field goals happening in this game, and Folk has shown he's rolling with the confidence and technique to hit the attempts he does get.
2. Dan Bailey, DAL v. WSH ($5,100) – Bailey started the season with a bang scoring 22 points in the first two weeks, then fell flat scoring just 20 over the next three weeks. Still, he's gone 9-11 on field goal attempts this year including 3-3 from 40-49 and 2-3 from 50+. Dallas should have no trouble building a tower of points against Washington and Bailey could reap the benefits.
3. Sebastian Janikowski, OAK @ KC ($5,000) – Janikowski can be a frustrating kicker to watch as he has the leg to kick a 70-yarder but often loses his accuracy on a whim and doesn't seem to get the opportunities to take advantage of his massive leg often enough. He's just 7-10 on field goals this year, including 1-2 from 50+, but if you want to take a risk at kicker it's hard to find a more hyperbolic performer than Janikowski. Kansas City's stout defense should be able to deny the Raiders from entering the end zone too frequently this week, which could mean more kicks for Janikowski.
Bargain Ds:
1. New York Jets, NYJ v. PIT ($5,000) – The Jets defense has been incredibly effective this season with a league-best run defense allowing 3.0 yards per carry and a pass rush that has sacked opposing quarterbacks 16 times already. The one weakness of this defense is their secondary, particularly with Antonio Cromartie injuring his knee and questionable for this weekend's matchup against Pittsburgh. The Jets have just one interception and have allowed nine passing touchdowns, which is something Ben Roethlisberger and Antonio Brown will likely try to take advantage of. Still, Pittsburgh has been pretty awful this year and the Jets should have no trouble keeping them one dimensional in New York this weekend.
2. Carolina Panthers, CAR @ MIN ($5,100) – The Panthers' defensive unit has also been quite effective this season, particularly against the pass, allowing just three passing touchdowns against six interceptions and 12 sacks. They haven't been too shabby against the run either, allowing just 3.6 yards per carry and only two rushing touchdowns. Some of these numbers are influenced by the weak opponents they've faced including the Bills, the Giants, and the Cardinals, but it's not like Minnesota is a frightening opponent. It's a good bet Adrian Peterson will make those rushing defense numbers look a little less sparkling after this week, but with Matt Cassel chucking passes under pressure the pass defense numbers should only get better.
3. Pittsburgh Steelers, PIT @ NYJ ($5,100) – The Steelers' defense has been a huge disappointment along with the rest of the team so far this season. They've had some success stopping the run, allowing just 3.8 yards per carry but have allowed six rushing touchdowns. The pass defense has been much worse with no interceptions and just four sacks through four games. That said, I expect the Steelers to look a little better coming off a bye and facing a rookie quarterback and generally middle-of-the-road offense, and their first interception of the year seems likely. If they can manage to limit the Jets' rushing attack, the Geno Smith Turnover Experience may rear its ugly head and provide some scoring opportunities for the Pittsburgh defense.

Anyone know how to hack into wp-amazon so that you can add amazon content while making the new static pages in 1.5? I'd like to put together a reading list page and that would really help.
Anyone know how to hack into wp-amazon so that you can add amazon content while making the new static pages in 1.5? I'd like to put together a reading list page and that would really help.
I can't even get wp-amazon to work on my main page with 1.5, so I'm going to assume not :(
One idea, do your reading list as either a sidebar, or as a post-category and use individual posts per book.
I'll have to look at the Pages stuff, and see if my CG-Amazon/CG-Inline stuff will work on a Page -- if so, it's a simple extra tag here and there in the body text of the page.
Gimme a bit to look into it...
Hmmm. wp-amazon isn't working for me any more, either. Had it working with 1.5-gamma, but it's failing with 1.5 Strayhorn. Pops up an empty window, which makes finding the cause difficult.
I see a couple of people have commented on Rich's site[1], so I guess it's just a matter of waiting for a fix...
[1] I tried to, but got an error message, so Rich probably has other priorities at the moment
FYI, I just tested with my work-in-progress 1.5 compatability for CG-PowerPack, and did prove that a CG-Inlined amazon item shows up as expected (like any other 'article' page you might see on my site with an amazon product floated within the text body...).
Should have it together in a few days.
There is an update for wp-amazon now available. Just given it a quick test, and yes, it does work with 1.5. Woo and indeed hoo :-).
No kidding, Ibessant! That is what I've been waiting for! Amazing how people develop a real fondness for certain plugins and can't live without 'em!
what a brilliant plugin! will certainly make my life easier for reviews. I can only hope that there is a more general plugin which will search products on more than one site, but I guess dependent upon how the sites are coded would affect the ability of th eplugin.
Still, great plugin. Thank you
I have what I realize is a pretty stupid question. I understand there is an update for the wp-amazon plugin. Mine no longer works under the new 1.5. However, when I go to the site linked in a previous post, I can't seem to download it and copying it causes all sorts of problems. Where can I download it perhaps as a zip?
Following on Samspade32's question, do I need to do some kind of diff merge to patch the old version of wp-amazon, and if so how is that done?
Thanks much,
Maybe this will help:
Once I got the update, I had to upload it twice (ftp problem, I'm certain), activate the plugin again and now it works perfectly.
OK. Just installed the latest release and I ger the "Insert Amazon content" link. But the pop-up displays ...
Warning: main(../wp-config.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/virtualhosts/dougandkelly.org/live/www/wp-admin/admin.php on line 2
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '../wp-config.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php') in /home/virtualhosts/dougandkelly.org/live/www/wp-admin/admin.php on line 2

BOARDMAN — The Youngstown Sports Grille's final day of operations at its current location will be Saturday, the owner confirmed today.
Owner Sean Pregibon said his business has leased the building at 7463 South Ave. since it moved there six years ago and was told two years ago that the owners were putting it up for sale.
"We got a call late last week that our landlord had sold the building. ...Our last day will be this Saturday and coincidentally, it's the Final Four and Ohio State University is playing ... We'll have a big going-away party with style. We have a lot to be proud of," Pregibon said.
The business is looking at possible new locations, including two in downtown Youngstown, and should be open again in several months, he added.
For the complete story, read Wednesday's Vindicator and Vindy.com
How about South Avenue in south side Youngstown? Be the first to start the revitalization of the South Ave corridor!
Thats not a bad idea, but in all due respect, I doubt they would consider it because of the high crime in the area. Too many businesses have shuttered their doors and I doubt we have seen the last of it. Thats sad because I grew up in the area and it has fallen on hard times!!!
First step is to pay bills and late taxes. The building is not sold, Vintage Estates is moving over there.
B E serious, who in their right mind would put anything in that war zone? More goofy ideas from liberals. Ask the people commenting above to invest their own money in a project to put a sports bar on Youngstowns southside.
Why not investigate using part of the old Value city? Just across the street from their current location with great parking.
Th old Rusty's has been sold so that isn't an option nor is the old steak restaurant that was next to Inner Circle. Actually, in my honest opinion, he should move back to Boardman Plaza or another smaller space - his food and level of service diminished greatly when he moved to his current location.
Just let us know soon. I love the food there...

Go2Germany – 1st stop Hamburg
The Danish IT association (ITB), Hamburg@work and TBK Consult launches a program to ease the way into the German market for Danish software companies.
Denmark is one of the smallest markets in the world. 0,39% of world demand for IT related products and services are generated by the Danish economy. Nevertheless Denmark has been the birthplace of quite a number of international software blockbusters. UNIRAS, Skype, SpamFighter, Microsoft Dynamics AX and NAV, SimCorp and CCI Europe have all grown out of this small market.
"Danish software companies must face the challenges of internationalisation very early in their life," explains Hans Peter Bech, CEO of TBK Consult. "Germany, the 2nd largest IT market in the World, is right on our doorstep and hard to ignore. However Danish software companies need to find creative ways of bootstrapping their way into the German market, as they often do not have the resources to invest in a subsidiary with dedicated staff from the very beginning. The "Go2Germany – 1st stop Hamburg" is proving practical hints making the first steps."
Germany is the largest economy in Europe and the 2nd largest software market in the world (after the USA). With 82,3 million inhabitants Germany holds the second largest national population in Europe (after Russia). Germany is administratively divided into 16 "Bundesländer"
Contradictory to common perceptions, German wealth and welfare is also based on numerous small companies. Out of the 3,6 million registered companies in Germany only 11.300 have more than 250 employees.
"Hamburg and the neighboring "Bundesländer"

There's about a million different plugs and lures that will work to catch striped bass at the Cape Cod Canal. You could drive yourself bananas trying to sort through them all.
The good news is that the fish still happily bite the same plugs and lures that worked decades ago. Just because some new and fancy lure is sweeping the market, doesn't mean that old faithful plugs and lures won't get the job done.
So with that in mind I wanted to share with you 3 lethal lures that I will be using this spring when fishing the Cape Cod Canal.
1) �6 Inch Pencil Popper
Sometimes a pencil popper is all I bring with me to the Canal.
I don't think you need to worry too much about the color or painting pattern on your chosen pencil popper. The most important factors are:
- Good casting distance
- Great "walk-the-dog" type action
- Roughly same size as bait in the area
I caught my largest Cape Cod Canal striped bass ever on a homemade, ugly as hell pencil popper that was outfitted with one large tuna hook.�So I don't feel you need to get fancy here.
Guppy pencil poppers in particular are a great choice, and are a good all-around topwater lure.
2) �Sebile Magic Swimmer/Daiwa SP Minnow
Big old school wooden plugs still catch some awfully nice bass each year from the Cape Cod Canal. Yet in recent seasons its hard to beat the effectiveness of the Magic Swimmer and SP Minnow.
The lures literally do all the work for you. Simply cast them out and reel them back in.
Just be sure to swap out the hooks that come with the Sebile Magic Swimmer. The factory hooks are terrible and will bend under the weight of a good bass.
Jeff from Canal Bait and Tackle can help you swap out the hooks with the correct ones. He's usually in the shop each afternoon. Be sure to say hello for me!
3) �Four Ounce Savage Sand Eel Or Similar Soft Plastic
Just as with plugs, old school reliable soft plastics work just as well as the new stuff on the market.
In the past few years the Savage Sand Eel has received a lot of attention. The Savage works great at the Canal as well as in other Cape Cod fishing locations.
Yet other soft plastics like the Hogy and Slug-Go work exceptionally well too.
For weight I would recommend always carrying a 4 ounce leadhead. Generally I will start with 4 ounces and then go lighter or heavier depending on the current and wind.
If you do go the Hogy and Slug-Go route, be sure to remember the super glue. You'll definitely want to super glue the soft plastic to the leadhead, because it will increase the longevity of the lure ten fold.
It pays to experiment with your retrieve. Typically I will slowly move the soft plastic just off the Canal's bottom, gently lifting the rod up and down.
Yet at other times I like to switch it up, and mix in some "herky-jerky" movements and other crazy stuff. Once in a while it pays off, like it did in the below video.
Proper Cape Cod Canal Etiquette
When you were a teenager and applying for your driver's license, you made sure to learn the "rules of the road" before going out for a drive. The same is true at the Cape Cod Canal.
If you are brand new to fishing here, then I would recommend you first learn some simple and common Cape Cod Canal etiquette. This way you can fit in among the Canal crowd and not cause any issues.
To make things super easy, I have put together a brief eBook to help explain to you what to do, and what not to do, when fishing the Cape Cod Canal.
Download your free copy of the Canal etiquette eBook by clicking here or on the image below.
In Conclusion & Looking Forward
It won't be long now until stripers begin trickling into the Cape Cod Canal.�Water temps are still on the cold side, but a few days of sunny skies coupled with a SW wind will help take care of that.
What do you think? Let me know by commenting below.
Tight lines and take care,

Recent researchers have drawn attention to fruit preferences in a variety of primates;for instance, in 1991, Davies noted that monogastric primates prefer the flesh of succulent, sugar-rich fruits, while colobines more often consume and digest large seeds of drier fruits. I compare fruit preferences in four sympatric primates— Hylobates lar, Macaca fascicularis, Pongo pygmaeus,and Presbytis thomas—which I studied concurrently at the Ketambe Research Center in northern Sumatra. I collected continuous focal animal data during 40–50 hr per taxon per month for 10 months and recorded fruit species size,pH, and descriptive attributes, including degree of ripeness, hardness, pericarp type, and number of seeds. The langurs prefer dry fruit seeds while the monogastric primates more often consume acidic, succulent fruit flesh. Further, H. lar, M. fascicularis,and P. pygmaeusvary significantly in preferences for fruits vis-à-visthe characteristics examined.

NFL Team Report - San Diego Chargers - INSIDE SLANT
A lot has changed for the Chargers after they squared their record after six games.
Then again, not much.
The Chargers travel to Jacksonville to face the winless Jaguars on Sunday. That trip comes less than a week from their stunning victory over the Indianapolis Colts.
But if the Chargers stub their toe in Florida, that ray of sunshine they collected Monday night will be quickly forgotten.
"We have to go in with the same attitude we had, which is our back is against the wall," quarterback Philip Rivers said. "We were 2-3 last week and we are only one week removed from that. Not a whole lot has changed at 3-3. It's not like all of a sudden we are sitting at 6-3. We still have a long way to go."
The Chargers will be trying to do something they haven't done all year: win consecutive games. The Chargers would love to do it now, then enter their bye week with a winning record and another heaping of confidence.
And all signs point to them doing just that. The Jaguars haven't won yet, and not many think they will do so on Sunday.
Of course, not many gave the Chargers a shot at stopping the Colts, and we know how that turned out.
"It was a complete game," Rivers said of the 19-9 verdict. "Then again I can show on the film where we made a bunch of mistakes. We got a lot of improving to do."
So Rivers, and other veterans like center Nick Hardwick, are making sure that message is being heard. The joy of Monday turned Rivers into a grump on Wednesday. Well, as much as he can be one anyway.
"We got to come in here with a little frown on our face," Rivers said. "When Wednesday gets here it's like, 'Hey, we got to go.'
"We don't have time to keep yucking it up about the last game. That is gone and I think it is key because we have so many young players. We started the week off right."
Now can they start next week in the same manner, not falling into the trap of following a good game with a stinker. Their outings one game removed from a victory at Tennessee and Oakland as proof positive.
"Every game is important," Rivers stressed. "But when you're at the point we are in the season, you got a bye week coming up next week, we got to find a way to get this game won."
SERIES HISTORY: 6th regular-season meeting. Chargers lead series, 3-2, and have won the last two games. The Chargers defeated the Jaguars 38-14 in Jacksonville in 2011 and beat them in their last visit to San Diego in 2010.
NFL Team Report - San Diego Chargers - NOTES, QUOTES
--RB Ryan Mathews had one of his better games with the Chargers as he rushed for 102 yards in the win over the Colts. But he also made a crucial mistake when the Chargers were trying to milk the clock, failing to stay in bounds with 2 1/2 minutes to play. Mathews' miscue didn't go unnoticed by coach Mike McCoy.
"That could have cost us the game," McCoy said. "When you look at the big picture of things of running out of bounds, letting them not have to call a timeout or letting the time run out, whatever their strategy was going to be there, that's a critical mistake and we can't have that. Those are things that cost you in a close game like this. We were fortunate that it worked out alright, but you would hate to look back on that situation. We won a game in Denver against Chicago when a guy ran out of bounds giving us an opportunity to get the ball back and have more time to win a game. It's one of those deals where the player has to learn from it. It's something you don't want to happen. They are going to make mistakes, but he has to stay in there and fall down."
--When LT King Dunlap came over in the offseason from the Eagles, it was believed Dunlap would supply depth. That was especially true when the Chargers brought in Max Starks to compete for the starting job. But Dunlap beat out Starks and has proved to be a steady influence in protecting Philip Rivers' blind side.
--As a first-year head coach at any level, McCoy has been quick to lean on his staff. Especially when it includes a former NFL head coach in Ken Whisenhunt; he came over after being let go after last season by the Cardinals. McCoy, to his credit, is quick to praise his staff.
"We're very fortunate to have the staff, not just the two coordinators that we have here, but the entire staff," McCoy said. "I think they work very well together as a group, offensively, defensively, and special teams. That was the first priority when we got here was, putting a great staff together of not only good football coaches, but good people. I think that's what the coaches represent in here and I think the past couple weeks, it was the Dallas game with the offensive line and the adjustments we had to make up there, with Joe (D'Alessandris) and everybody up front, and then with what John (Pagano) and Joe Barry and everyone on the defensive staff did with the linebackers that have come and gone during the season that have been injured the past couple weeks, it says a lot about them."
-- Rivers said if his wife, Tiffany, goes into labor to deliver their seventh child this weekend, he's staying in Florida. "Once in Jacksonville, I'm in Jacksonville," Rivers said. He noted that instead of being there, he would rely on FaceTime to stay connected with his wife.
Although Rivers doesn't own an IPhone.
"I have an Ipad,"he said. "So it's even a bigger screen for a better view."
BY THE NUMBERS: 6 - Number of consecutive losses the Chargers entered the game with when they last played Jacksonville in 2011; the Chargers won the contest to snap their skid. That is also the same number of defeats the Jaguars have opened this season with.
QUOTE TO NOTE: "If we're fortunate enough in the end to be in a position we want to be then you are, but you can't worry about other teams." -- Coach Mike McCoy on if he peeks at what other AFC squads are doing in regard to the Chargers making the playoffs.
NFL Team Report - San Diego Chargers - STRATEGY AND PERSONNEL
The Chargers remain thin at tackle, which is why they brought in Mike Remmers. He was among the inactives on Monday night, but Remmers, who was signed off Tampa Bay's practice squad, is being brought along quickly in practice.
Remmers was signed on the same day, Oct. 10, that Mike Harris, the team's top backup tackle, was placed on IR with an ankle injury.
Right tackle D.J. Fluker is playing but is slowed by a calf injury; he missed a game earlier this year with a concussion.
Left tackle King Dunlap returned on Monday after missing a game with his concussion.
Nick Becton is the top backup tackle now, but he could be pushed by Remmers, depending on how quickly he can get up to speed. And that could be Sunday, where Remmers could be active for his first Chargers game.
--K Nick Novak was named the AFC Special Teams Player of the Week after kicking four field goals in Monday's win. Novak's last effort, from 50 yards in the closing minutes, iced the win for the Chargers. In six weeks, the Chargers have been honored three times. QB Philip Rivers won the offensive award twice. "It's a great honor," Novak said. "It's actually a three-man award. Actually, 11-man. All the guys up front, holder, snapper, they all did a great job."
--Don't overlook the play of C Nick Hardwick. As the front line has been ravaged by injuries, Hardwick has been the anchor in the middle, the lone lineman not to miss playing time this season. Hardwick and QB Philip Rivers have great chemistry as two of the team's leaders. "I think he is having one of his best years," Rivers said.
--WR Vincent Brown continues to emerge as one of QB Philip Rivers' favorite targets. Brown, in his third year, has 24 catches which leads all the Chargers' wideouts. He's collected 239 yards and a touchdown as well. Brown missed last year with a broken ankle.
--CB Derek Cox did something on Monday night that no other member of the Chargers' secondary had done all year: intercept a pass. Cox's pick of Andrew Luck sealed the win and gave the defense its second interception of the season. The other one came to defensive tackle Cam Thomas on a tipped pass in the season's opening minute.
--ILB Donald Butler (groin) didn't work on Wednesday but will try to do so later in the week. He wasn't able to play on Sunday.
--G Jeromey Clary (clavicle) didn't practice but indications are he will start on Sunday.
--G Chad Rinehart (toe) didn't practice and there's no clear sign he can go this week.
--WR Eddie Royal (toe) didn't work but could try to go later in the week.
--RB Ronnie Brown (ankle) was limited with his work but should be available on Sunday.
--OLB Jarret Johnson (hamstring) was limited but should go on Sunday. He was almost able to play on Monday. Johnson is back practicing and that's a good sign for the Chargers. Johnson was brought in last year to set the edge on running plays and give way to the pass-rushers on passing downs. But with all the Chargers; injuries, he's been playing more and his three sacks lead the Chargers. Johnson didn't play on Monday because of a sore hamstring.
--T D.J. Fluker (calf) was a full participant.
--DE Corey Liuget (shoulder) was a full participant.
--CB Richard Marshall (groin) was a full participant.
--CB Johnny Patrick (chest) was a full participant.
--CB Shareece Wright (hamstring) was a full participant.
GAME PLAN: The Chargers would be wise to lean again on their new-found running game and for a couple of reasons. The Jaguars will likely need some turnovers to stay with the Chargers, and those are more easier obtained through the air. Now it must be noted that Ryan Mathews is a big part of that running game, and he has had ball-security issues in the past.
Still, the Chargers can lean on the run and not put Rivers into situations where a bad throw or a tipped ball give the Jaguars a score or puts them in keen field position. Plus the Jaguars are ranked last in the league in allowing 192 rushing yards per game. The Chargers are coming off their best rushing game of the season with 147 yards and there is no reason to go away from it. Not this week.
MATCHUPS TO WATCH: Chargers pass defense, which was able to stymie the Colts' Andrew Luck vs. Jaguars passing game, which has got a boost with the return of WR Justin Blackmon -- The Chargers looked good last week in their pass defense -- hey, even a rare interception was collected. But the Chargers can't go to sleep on Chad Henne, a veteran, and Blackmon, who has returned with two solid games after being suspended the first four games. One good thing going for the Chargers is their defensive backs are getting their health back. Derek Cox figures to get matched up much of the time against Blackmon. Blackmon had 190 yards in the loss to the Broncos last week and 136 yards vs. the Rams. The Chargers could get a break with Jaguars WR Cecil Shorts being compromised by a shoulder injury.
Chargers run defense, which might be without ILB Donald Butler vs. Jaguars running attack with Maurice Jones-Drew -- If Butler's groin doesn't allow him to go for the second straight game, backups such as Andrew Gachkar and Bront Bird will be asked to help Manti Te'o on the interior run defense. Te'o has looked better of late, so that is encouraging. Then again, so has Jones-Drew, who had a season-high 21 carries last week against the Broncos. The last time the Chargers faced Jones-Drew, he rushed for 97 yards and added 91 receiving yards in the Jaguars loss to the Chargers. The Jaguars running game hasn't shown much this year, but Jones-Drew can still hurt a team, like the Chargers, that can be inconsistent.

Free Liliany Obando!
Liliany Obando, closely associated with Colombia's largest rural labor organization, was arrested Aug. 8 in what police called a "preventive" arrest. In the process, officers of Colombia's National Police Anti-Terrorism Unit and Criminal Investigation Directorate harassed her children, seized her family's personal documents and removed left publications.
