This past weekend I posted that NHL.com re-drafted the entire NHL and I thought the "new" Rangers team (drafted by Darryl Haberman) which included Joe Thornton, Jaromir Jagr, Bryan McCabe and Steve Mason was awful.
Well it looks like I was right because after they simulated an entire season on EA Sports NHL12 with the new teams the re-drafted Rangers finished 30th out of 30 teams with just 64 points.
…and this guy Haberman works at NHL.com!?!?!? Really seems to know his hockey. Good thing he isn't running the Rangers because they probably wouldn't have gotten out of the second round once since 1997…oh wait, nevermind.

I felt extreme leg soreness & tiredness this morning, along with sleepiness, all the way through taking a 45m nap this afternoon. Then I felt fine.
Poisoning while eating out last night?
I had a bunch (20gm?) of d-ribose tonight to test if I was right about it making me dizzy (plus I couldn't put it down; despite what "they" say, my body treats the taste like any other sweet taste and obsesses for more of it). Yep, it made me dizzy just like too much sugar or fruit, AND the dizziness an hour later is to the point that I'm shaky, have to work hard to function mentally, and lol my blood sugar is 55. That's not too atypical for me, but I was expecting too high, not too low.

Programming note: Blue Jays-A's coverage starts tonight at 6:30 p.m. with A's Pregame Live on Comcast SportsNet California
OAKLAND -- Brandon Moss is not in the A's lineup for their Saturday evening game against the Blue Jays, and the man who leads the team in home runs and RBI is not available off the bench after rolling his ankle on Friday.
"It's sore," Moss said. "It's a little more sore than I thought it was gonna be, just based on how it felt after the game yesterday. It actually didn't feel too bad. I went home and it stiffened up a little bit, got a little sore overnight.
"It's nothing serious, anyway, I think it'll feel a lot better tomorrow."
Moss, who was checked by a doctor and received treatment throughout Saturday, did not take batting practice with the team.
The plan is to evaluate Moss before Sunday afternoon's series finale against Toronto, and the first baseman/outfielder was optimistic he'll be able to play.
The 30-year old is batting .272 with 19 home runs and his 62 RBI rank sixth in the majors.
"He's one of the toughest guys we have," manager Bob Melvin said. "He doesn't like a day off, let alone potentially a couple days off."
The Blue Jays and A's lineups for the third game in a four-game series in Oakland:
Toronto Blue Jays (47-41)
1. Jose Reyes (S) SS
2. Melky Cabrera (S) LF
3. Jose Bautista (R) DH
4. Edwin Encarnacion (R) 1B
5. Dioner Navarro (S) C
6. Colby Rasmus (L) CF

KAHULUI - The Kahului Airport master plan, including a longer main runway, will take years of public effort before a shovel hits dirt for the major pieces of the more than $1 billion, 20-year-plus plan, said Jeff Chang, engineering program manager for the state Department of Transportation Airports Division.
Chang was among a number of state Department of Transportation officials to discuss airport plans during a meeting attended by about 20 people Tuesday night at the Pomaikai Elementary School cafeteria. The event is required by the Federal Aviation Administration to get public input on the airport master plan and noise issues.
chTwo people spoke, including one who said he believes the government would proceed with airport projects, regardless of public opposition to projects such as the runway extension.
Article Photos
An American Airlines flight lands Wednesday morning at Kahului Airport. State Department of Transportation officials met with Maui residents Tuesday night to discuss the airport's master plan, which calls for more than $1 billion in improvement projects over 20 or more years.
The Maui News / MATTHEW THAYER photo
Maui County Council Member Joe Pontanilla said that he just met with U.S. Rep. Mazie Hirono in Washington, D.C., and Hirono told him there was an appropriation for "several million to the DOT" to help fix security checkpoint congestion at the airport, which the congresswoman called "one of the worst" in the country.
Resident Jeff Parker complained that the "DOT wants everything it can have no matter how we feel about it . . . Why all these projects in the master plan if they don't plan an expansion?"
But Chang said, "we'll probably never get anywhere near the number of projects we and the public have called for with today's limited resources."
Most of the major decisions rest with the Transportation Department, an advisory committee, the governor and Legislature, said Central Maui state Rep. Joe Souki, chairman of the House Transportation Committee on Wednesday.
But officials did lay out the costs for the Kahului Airport department goals in three phases: 2015-2025 for $76.3 million; 2026-2035 for $543.6 million; and 2035 and beyond for $174 million. The more than $1 billion total also includes design and contingency costs, according to the department.
The goals laid out Tuesday for the airport's master plan without much detail included:
* Extending (main) runway 2-20 from 7,000 feet to 9,600 feet.
* Lengthening the other runway, 5-23 from 4,995 feet to 7,000 feet.
* Upgrading existing taxiways.
* Acquiring land for the runway expansions.
* Relocating the commuter terminal.
* Expanding the main terminal.
* Consolidating the rent-a-car companies.
* Expanding parking for the public and employees.
"We are looking at a tremendous amount of money spent" for all the possible master plan ideas, said project manager Chester Koga of R.M. Towill Corp. of Honolulu.
However, he said that most of the money involved for many of the projects will come from federal funds and user fees from car rental companies, plane tickets and the airlines themselves, Koga said.
The master planning process began in 1993. He said people have valid complaints, some of which can be solved without spending several millions of dollars. Those include increasing the lobby size for more space for Transportation Security Administration agents to move passengers through or having only one bus take people to all the rent-a-car agencies.
"Over the next 20 years, we are going to see continued economic growth," Koga said.
He related this "growth" directly to the number of visitors and interisland flights, though state transportation officials not expect visitor numbers to reach the 2007 peak of 2.5 million arrivals annually through the duration of the 20-year plan. Currently, there's a steady flow of more than 2 million visitors annually to Maui and maybe 2.25 million visitors by 2030, "or tomorrow," he joked.
He also said aircraft decibel levels have "not changed much" and are within normal levels.
The airport's hot topic lately has been expanding the main runway, which has been repaved five times since it was built in 1942. Transportation officials have said that the work is needed to address runway safety, primarily.
Koga said major airport projects would go through environmental impact studies and other reviews, including public meetings.
"This isn't the end," Koga said.

My Primal Meanderings
How about a tin of sweetened condensed milk.
Bread and butter with sugar or sweetened condensed milk on top.
Spaghetti sandwiches on white bread spread with margarine. Damn, those things were squishy good.
HA! my mom and i used to eat spaghetti sandwiches. italian bread, though and no anything else.
i also have had ravioli-topped pizza.
also had a soy-cheese period in my life of low-fatitude. ugh. it wouldn't even really melt.
As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy and to make plans.
Ernest Hemingway
That vegan that I picked up last night. Oh!
In all of the universe there is only one person with your exact charateristics. Just like there is only one person with everybody else's characteristics. Effectively, your uniqueness makes you pretty average.
Pizza with Hellman's mayonnaise on the crust and some kind of pasta piled on top. Pretty much a gluten/transfat frenzy.

Captain Crunch....like everyday. And this cake my mom makes....chocolate cake with a can of sweetened condensed milk drizzled over top, covered in hot fudge with whipped cream icing. Basically a mouth orgy
There's a version of tres leches cake that my neighbors made when I was a kid. Standard tres leches cakes with condensed milk caramel soaked into it as well, slathered with crisco/ whipped cream frosting and topped with maraschino cherries and their juice. Damn tasty and all kinds of not good for you.
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, steak in one hand, chocolate in the other, yelling "Holy F***, What a Ride!"

There's a good reason that Tim McGinty, candidate for Cuyahoga County prosecutor, sounds a lot like Tim Misny, relentless TV plaintiff's lawyer.
McGinty's "I will make it right" TV commercial catch phrase, which harkens Misny's "I'll make them pay," was actually conceived by Misny.
"I have received emails and calls from people saying that McGinty may be plagiarizing and I should think about making him pay," said Misny.
What they don't know is that Misny attended law school with McGinty and, like McGinty, is a former assistant county prosecutor. McGinty is one of five candidates in the March 6 Democratic primary. There are no Republicans running.
Misny offered more than a campaign contribution when McGinty resigned his judgeship to run for prosecutor and asked Misny for his support.
"I said, 'Judge, I got your campaign slogan: I'll Make It Right,'" said Misny. "The more we said it, the more it rang true. This is a very unique election in that his opponent, in part, is corruption in county government. Tim McGinty can't be bought and he can't be bribed."
Misny wrote and directed the McGinty commercials and coordinated the media buys with his local TV contacts.
There are eight different 15-second commercials each with a McGinty supporter giving testimonials. And there's a unique twist, a 5-second spot, a strategy Misny employs with his daytime TV buys.
He claims he can make them pay. We'll find out soon whether he can make them vote.
Celebrity city: The Onion, which specializes in hilariously fake news passed off as the real thing, reported this week that the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority had signed Academy Award winning actress Charlize Theron to a three-year, $32 million deal to ride its light rail system eight hours a day, Monday through Friday, and to ride public buses for 14 hours straight on the third Saturday of every month.
"Ms. Theron will bring the glitz and glamour of a Hollywood movie premiere right to Cleveland's own RTA Rapid Transit trains," read the fake quote from a fake RTA mouthpiece.
The story noted that the arrangement built on one in which the city's water department gained notice by "paying (actor) Alfred Molina to swim laps in the city's central reservoir."
Real RTA spokesperson Mary McCahon said despite the obvious satire, some folks bought it: "I did get a couple of emails asking, 'Is this true?'" she said.
Tipoff has heard of several other upcoming celebrity marketing arrangements that are equally fake:
Pamela Anderson has been hired to run slow motion across the Edgewater sand in a red one-piece bathing suit every Sunday afternoon in July.
Morgan Freeman will be paid $1 million to visit each classroom in the Cleveland Metropolitan School District while carrying a baseball bat.
George Clooney signed a multiyear deal to wax his car in a grassy area near Big Met Golf Course.
Finally, every concert performed by the world-famous Cleveland orchestra will be attended next season by rapper 50 Cent.
Murky water: The water in the shark tank at the new Greater Cleveland Aquarium is not as clear as it should be and some days appears very murky.
Aquarium management has decided to cut 10 percent from the ticket price ($21.95 for adults, $15.95 for kids 2-12) until the situation is resolved.
"The tank has been settling for some time," said aquarium general manager Tamera Brown. "You can still see the fish, but you can't see through the tank and that is not up to our standards."
Staffers are working on a solution, looking at sediment and filtration issues.
"The water quality is fine. Our sharks, our fish are not affected by this at all. It's a matter of clarity for our visitors," Brown said.
Remembering Whitney: Madeline Sivak of Chagrin Falls has been hearing a lot of
the negative talk about Whitney Houston since her death last week.
"Just what an addict she was and how she couldn't kick it and Bobbie Brown and all that. It's constant," she said.
She'd prefer to focus on the positive. And she remembers a specific act of Houston's generosity.
In 1995, Sivak was executive director of Michael's House, a center for children grieving the death of a parent that she founded in 1993 in Chagrin Falls. She received a grant from the Whitney Houston Foundation for Children, which the singer founded. Along with the $5,000 check was a note from Houston: "This is such a wonderful idea. God bless you."
Said Sivak: "I think it is only right that we note her generosity for children."
Grammy gold: Clevelander David Spero -- former disc jockey, artist manager and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum executive -- got a shout-out last Saturday from the podium during Grammy pre-ceremonies honoring the Allman Brothers Band with a lifetime achievement award.
Spero -- manager of Joe Walsh, who played with Paul McCartney during Sunday's main awards show -- was thanked by former Allman Brothers Band pianist Chuck Leavell, who passed along word that founding band guitarist Dickey Betts, another of Spero's clients, was unable to attend the ceremony.
And on another Grammy note, a group with local ties -- eighth blackbird -- won the Grammy for best small ensemble performance. The contemporary sextet was formed in 1996 at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music under the tutelage of Timothy Weiss, director of the division of conducting and ensembles. Five of the six current members are Obies.

Pink Floyd's "final" album, The Division Bell, was released in 1994. The band's guitarist, singer and de facto leader, David Gilmour, apparently intends to commemorate the occasion with a deluxe reissue – and something a little more anticipated: the first new Pink Floyd album in two decades.
Gilmour's wife, author Polly Samson, leaked the news on Twitter Saturday, writing, "Pink floyd album out in October is called The Endless River. Based on 1994 sessions is Rick Wright's swansong and very beautiful."
Rick Wright, Pink Floyd's keyboard player, died of an undisclosed form of cancer in 2008.
Touring Floyd singer Durga McBroom-Hudson revealed more details about the album on her Facebook page.
"The recording did start during the Division Bell sessions (and yes, it was the side project originally titled 'The Big Spliff' that [Pink Floyd drummer] Nick Mason spoke about). Which is why there are Richard Wright tracks on it. But David and Nick have gone in and done a lot more since then. It was originally to be a completely instrumental recording, but I came in last December and sang on a few tracks. David then expanded on my backing vocals and has done a lead on at least one of them."
The presence of ex-Floyd bassist and singer Roger Waters (the architect of much of the band's sound) has not been confirmed. Tensions between Waters and Gilmour are fraught, to say the least – the pair have reunited sporadically for one-off performances, but it's unlikely Gilmour will bring him into the studio for the new album.

Interstellar dust continues to present challenges to theoretical astrophysics. Our theoretical models of what interstellar grains are, and how they behave, are increasingly constrained -- and guided -- by observations, from microwaves to X-rays.
I will review the current state of play as regards (1) modeling the extinction and scattering by interstellar grains -- from the infrared to X-rays -- and (2) the emission spectrum of the dust, from microwaves to infrared.

A 50-degree plunge brought back freezing rain and sleet to North Texas, leading to hundreds of accidents and canceled flights Sunday and now into Monday.
Although the precipitation ended Sunday evening, patches of leftover ice due to bitterly cold temperatures are proving dangerous for this morning's commute, and accidents started cropping up again about 6 a.m. Side streets, of course, are worse than major thoroughfares, which are hit-and-miss; long stretches of bone-dry pavement will suddenly give way to patches of black ice. For that reason, most Dallas-area school districts, including Dallas ISD, have canceled Monday classes despite the appearance of the sun.
The city of Dallas canceled morning dockets at the municipal courthouse, but will open in the afternoon.
A wind chill advisory -- the first of the winter -- is in effect until 10 a.m. The morning's low is expected to dip close to 14 degrees, but the wind is making it feel anywhere from zero to 5 below in most areas.
"It's going to be really cold ... the coldest day so far this season," said Jesse Moore, a meteorologist in the National Weather Service's Fort Worth office.
There are reports of accidents on LBJ Freeway and N. Central Expressway, but nothing's worse than the major back-up on Interstate 45 near Corsicana, where some drivers report being stuck all night in ice that's one to two inches thick in both directions. There are reports that the backup stretches 34 miles.
That area "has been a challenge all night," says Texas Department of Transportation spokesman Tony Hartzel, who adds that plowers are heading that direction.
It's not just the roads that are slick: Just before 6:30 a.m., there were reports that an American Airlines plane slid off the tarmac at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport as it was being towed into the hangar. It appears there were no passengers aboard at the time, and no injuries were reported.
Ice on the roads is expected to begin melting by late morning, as the sun comes out and temperatures creep up. The day's forecast high is 31.
The Electric Reliability Council of Texas asked consumers to conserve energy Monday morning to meet high demand.
Ryan La Fontaine, a spokesman for the Texas Department of Transportation, said Sunday night that crews would work overnight to treat bridges and overpasses.
Dallas escalated its sanding operations to Ice Force Level 2, which involves about 56 trucks, because of the increasingly icy conditions.
But as of 10:25 a.m. Monday, the city scaled back is operations to focus on problem areas.
"Conditions have improved enough this morning to allow us to make this adjustment and target the most impacted areas and get the routes cleared," says a statement from Frank Librio, the city's spokesman. "The majority of Dallas experienced very little to patchy icing during the event. The routes in these areas have cleared to needing none or minimal attention. While we will continue to have coverage citywide, the majority of our sanding operations will work to improve the remaining problem routes."
Sunday's high was 74 degrees at 12:24 a.m., but just 12 hours later, much of North Texas was under a winter storm warning. Late Sunday night, it was 20.
Most of the area's precipitation was freezing rain or sleet, said meteorologist Jennifer Dunn with the weather service. However, some areas, including Denton County, reported thundersleet, a thunderstorm where sleet, rather than rain, falls.
Dunn said areas throughout North Texas accumulated anywhere from less than a quarter-inch of ice and sleet to less than half an inch.
Most precipitation in Dallas County was light with the heaviest appearing to the north and east of the county.
It was the third significant ice storm this season.
Hundreds of accidents were reported as drivers struggled with the accumulating ice, especially on bridges and overpasses.
In Arlington, a man was killed after his pickup became disabled on northbound Highway 287 near Interstate 20 about 12:30 p.m.
He was outside the pickup when another driver lost control and struck him, police said.
He died at the scene. The other driver was taken to Medical Center of Arlington with non-life-threatening injuries.
Police said that icy conditions may be have been a factor.
Dallas police said they responded to more than 150 minor wrecks, 99 injury wrecks and 104 injury wrecks on freeways Sunday.
Fort Worth police responded to about 95.
Hundreds of flights from Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport were canceled Sunday.
According to airport spokesman David Magana, more than 325 flights had been canceled, about a third of the day's schedule.
Magana said the runways were in good condition Sunday night, but that crews would continue to monitor and treat the airfield and roadways overnight.
Among those surprised by the weather's turn were cheerleaders and their families in downtown Dallas for the National Cheerleaders Association All-Star Nationals.
Letishia Rogers, 35, who traveled from Richmond, Va., said the girls had been looking forward to warmer weather and some were unprepared for the cold and had to buy winter coats.
She said she worried that her flight home Monday might get canceled because of snow in Richmond.
Rogers said the group had to change plans because of the weather.
"We were going to take them out to eat and ride a mechanical bull and just enjoy Dallas because they haven't really been out," Rogers said.
The winter weather forced organizers of the Mardi Gras Oak Cliff parade to cancel a few hours before it was to start.
But that didn't keep everyone away.
Erin Christopher, 29, rode in a float for her parent's business, VaporScape, an e-cigarette store. Usually thousands turn out for the parade, but she said she saw closer to 100 people on the route.
Her father, Joe Christopher, 66, said he wouldn't let the weather — or the cancellation — keep him from participating.
"We'd been working on this for 10 days," he said of the float, which featured a giant e-cigarette propped up on the back of a trailer.
Staff writers Liz Farmer and Robert Wilonsky contributed to this report.

Hi, my name is Jasper and I am from the Netherlands. I found out about the paleo diet/primal bluebrint about a year ago and have since slowly started trying to alter my diet.
My first question pertains to eggs and cholestrol. I have been eating a lot (about 7/day) of omega 3 enriched eggs because along with sardines they were the only fat/protein source with a balanced omega 6/3 ratio I could find around here.
I am aware that cholestrol in and of itself is generally not considered a heart disease risk factor in paleo circles, but I thought I'd ask anyway if there could be any harm in my egg consumption.
Another question I have is about a grass fed beef producer that recently started selling their products in the area, or at least they call it grass fed, but there was a sign at the vendor listing what the cattle had been fed and it included corn, beets and yeast dregs from beer production. These cows have definitely grazed on nature reserves in the area, but that list made me wonder wether this really is "grass fed" meat. Isn't corn fed meat a no no?

Your sense of logic will guide your decisions today as you review your financial options. By being realistic, you will be able to take charge of your finances and therefore make better use of your energy. It is both sensible and practical to live within your means rather than being in debt. Though we live in a society that encourages us to live on credit, debt drains our energy like a weight we drag around. But by pulling your energy fully into the present moment, you can look realistically at your needs and your income and make a prudent plan. Today your sensible side frees you from the fantasies that drain your present and future.
We are part of two worlds—the material and the spiritual—so we need to balance ourselves in both. It is great to visualize and affirm our goals, but at the same time we need to live realistically in the present moment. Money is a representation of our energy, so we want to have as much of it available to us in every moment as we can. By investing in living fully in the truth of the moment, we make sure that we don't drag the past along with us into the future. Instead, we can choose to have a store of energy, also known as savings, set aside for days when we need to rest. Then we can make positive steps toward creating more abundance in our lives. When you live realistically today, you can better prepare for a truly abundant future.

The Emperor's New Clothes: Lifting the NCAA's Veil of Amateurism

San Diego Law Review, Vol. 45, No. 2, 2008
MSU Legal Studies Research Paper No. 06-17
In The Emperor's New Clothes: Lifting the NCAA's Veil of Amateurism, Professors Amy and Robert McCormick expose a theme common to three areas of law - labor, antitrust, and tax. Each of these laws, in its own way, distinguishes between commercial and amateur activities, regulating the former and exempting the latter. Assuming major college sports to be amateur, these laws have exempted college athletics from regulation, providing them unwarranted shelter. We challenge this assumption by examining in rich detail the profoundly commercial character of the college sports industry. Like the child in the fable who alone revealed the emperor's nakedness, we lift the NCAA's veil of amateurism, exposing the deeply commercial nature of major college sports and calling for the laws' application to them.

Mobile Voices is a platform for immigrant and non-immigrant low-wage workers in Los Angeles to create stories about their lives and communities directly from cell phones, thus allowing greater participation in the digital public sphere.
Workers send images, text, audio, and video, to tell their own stories and write their own history. Mobile Voices provides an alternative media channel that empowers workers to be heard.
In the mainstream media's representation of reality, the lives and struggles of low-wage immigrant workers are often left out altogether, or, even worse, completely misrepresented.
Mobile Voices help to counter-balance this discriminatory tendency. The multi-media messages that workers create to tell their stories, help reflect the lived experiences of the immigrant community.
For more infomartion click here [1].
There is no greater injustice for a community than to be rendered invisible by political, legal, cultural or economic pressures or conditions which are beyond the community's control. Precisely this predicament is the plight of much of the Latino immigrant community living in southern California.
Mobile Voices is a simple, low-cost and high-impact service which makes this community visible by making it vocal. Citizens can simply call into the service and record their story, thus ¬creating a personal, communal & searchable archive of the joys, sufferings, triumphs and tragedies of a thriving Latino community living in a land where, all too often, Latinos become powerless and disenfranchised. All people matter.
Mobile Voices makes this previously invisible community matter in real-time, empowering and enabling its members in a simple and enduring way.

We couldn't agree more with Ault's bottom-line assertion that the medical community in the United States, and particularly those of us affiliated with large managed care organizations, need to be encouraging an appropriate partnering of specialty care with primary care for the management of asthma (and other chronic health conditions). It was not our intent to suggest that specialty care should replace primary care for the management of asthma. The real challenge for managed care, as we see it, is determining how best to integrate specialty referrals into the fabric of care for asthma. For example, which patients are most likely to benefit from specialist referral, who should continue to receive ongoing specialist care vs primary care for asthma, and what is the benefit of integrating nonphysician chronic disease specialists, such as specially trained licensed practical nurses or physician assistants, into primary care clinics as an intermediary between primary care and specialty care? Some guidance is provided by the newly revised national Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of Asthma,1 which gives recommendations to help clarify which patients with asthma need to be evaluated by a specialist.

The latest branded item to be banished from the NBA is not a piece of footwear, but rather a very specific hairstyle. Iman Shumpert of the New York Knicks stirred up some trouble recently with his cut, which featured a pledge of allegiance to the three stripes in the form of the Adidas logo shaved into his instantly recognizable do. The cut was apparently a violation of the NBA's uniform guidelines, with the corporate logo being on display and all. As you can see here, Shump has since wiped out the Adidas logo in compliance. Of course if he really wants to show that he's down with Adidas, the logical next step would be a Gucci Mane-style face tat. We'll stay tuned to see if that happens, but in the meantime, let us know what you think of Iman Shumpert's banned hair in the comments below.

PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers will be at full strength on Sunday for the first time this season.
Running back Rashard Mendenhall, linebacker James Harrison and safety Troy Polamalu completed a full week of practice on Friday. They are all listed as probable and will play Sunday for the Steelers (1-2) against the Philadelphia Eagles (3-1).
|More on Pittsburgh Steelers
|Related links
|NFL coverage on the go
Mendenhall and Harrison will make their season debuts; Polamalu will play for the first time since a season-opening loss in Denver.
Harrison had minor surgery on his left knee in August and Polamalu has had a calf injury. Each has been named NFL Defensive Player of the Year, and they have combined to be named All-Pro nine times. Their returns are welcomed on a defense that has blown fourth-quarter leads during each of its losses.
Harrison has not played in a game of any kind since January, so his snaps will be limited.
A two-time 1,000-yard rusher, Mendenhall has recovered from tearing his right ACL on Jan. 1. He has been practicing for more than three weeks.

CLEMSON In the first half of the season, Clemson quarterback Tajh Boyd set single-game career best in passing yardage and a program record in career touchdown passes. The No. 16 Tigers enter the halfway point of the season ranked 10th in the nation in total offense. The offensive output has led Clemson to five wins in its first six games.
The Tigers have accomplished all this with minimal contributions from their first-team All-American of last season, receiver Sammy Watkins.
Watkins has missed three games this season two to suspension, one to illness but in the three games he has played, Watkins has had a limited impact from a numbers standpoint. He has only 118 receiving yards and is averaging 7.4 yards per catch. His lone touchdown came on a running play against Furman. DeAndre Hopkins has nearly seven times the receiving yardage of Watkins.
Still, the Tigers do not seem concerned with Watkins depressed numbers, rather Clemson is encouraged as its offense ranks among the nations elite without much production from the teams most talented player.
Its still the same Sammy, Boyd said. Hes no different this year. He just has to keep getting reps because he missed a few games. We just have to keep working him.
Part of Watkins slowdown is because defenses have begun trying to limit his big plays.
The strategy of playing two deep safeties against Clemson began in the second half of last year, and the strategy has been employed by both Florida State and Georgia Tech this season.
That defenses are paying more attention is evident in the numbers. In the first nine games of his career, Watkins had five 100-yard receiving games and 10 touchdowns. In his last seven games, Watkins has failed to record a 100-yard game and has one receiving touchdown.
Clemson offensive coordinator Chad Morris said the Yellow Jackets were not going to allow Watkins to beat them deep.
They werent going to let us get over the top with him, Morris said. They just werent.
Even with Hopkins breakout season, Boyd was asked if teams have still focused their attention on Watkins.
I think so, Boyd said. Teams have been doubling him, having a safety spy on him, but you have to account for (Hopkins).
What Watkins depressed numbers also speak to is improved maturity from Boyd. Last season, Boyd forced the ball more to Watkins downfield the field into crowded secondaries. For instance, Watkins had a 150 yards in the loss to Georgia Tech last season, but Boyd also had three interceptions.
This season, Boyd is taking what is there. For instance, all but one of Watkins targets came within five yards of the line of scrimmage Saturday.
Were just improving, taking what is there, Boyd said. I think we are not forcing things as much this year; we are letting the game come to us.
And by letting the game come to them, Clemson believes the yards will eventually come to Watkins.

City Council: Dept. of Education Has Failed To Secure Needed Medicaid Revenue
In background, City Council Speaker Christine Quinn next to City Councilman Robert Jackson.
Sam Levin
Members of the City Council grilled officials from the Department of Education for nearly three hours this morning about its failure to secure tens of millions of dollars in Medicaid revenue owed to the city.
The joint hearing of the council's finance and education committees today was sparked by reports in December that the DOE has not recovered funds in Medicaid reimbursements for services it provides to special-needs students. At a time of budget cuts and layoffs, this is an inexplicable loss of revenue stream for the city's school system, council members told officials at the hearing. The DOE claims that it is working to address all outstanding issues and that the challenges can be attributed to new reimbursement requirements that have made the process very difficult for the department -- especially given how large New York City's system is.
The hearing, similar to an education session earlier this year, got pretty heated as council members raised their voices and repeatedly told the three DOE officials in attendance that their answers were not acceptable.
Referring to a comment the DOE has made in the Times about needing more staff to handle the situation, City Councilman Robert Jackson, chair of the education committee, said, "Welcome to the real world! This is totally unacceptable by anyone's standard. The DOE has been on notice since 2005 that they have to improve their documentation and claim procedures. They should have been more prepared by now."

"In a time of fiscal austerity, when New York City schools are suffering...[from] budget cuts, I'm outraged. And I'm gonna say that nice and level-headedly because if I really wanted to say it as far as my outrage, I would be screaming right now," he added. "I'm outraged that the Department of Education has not done their job...The question is, who is accountable for this?"
City Council Speaker Quinn also raised her volume when she stopped by the hearing to pressure the DOE to address the problem immediately -- pointing to the recent layoffs of 656 teacher aides, which she said could've possibly been avoided if the funds from Medicaid were in the hands of New York City.
"What I can't understand is why, if there's a revenue stream available to us in the city of New York, we aren't doing everything we can, as a city...to get every dollar we can out of that revenue stream," she said.
"The last place I want to leave any money is Washington -- let me be perfectly clear. We need it here and we have clear uses for it," she added.
The DOE's chief operating officer Veronica Conforme responded to the criticisms, saying, "We recognize our current fiscal situation, and we are working hard to implement an agressive plan that provides a long-term sustainable solution to our students and our schools."
Conforme explained that the city has struggled to secure reimbursements, in part because it has been forced to rely on both Medicaid, a medical service model, and Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, an education service model, making it difficult to navigate often contradictory rules. New obligations have become incredibly burdensome, she said, adding that the DOE has had to build systems similar to hospitals and healthcare institutions.
"In a system as large as ours, with approximately 175,000 students with [Individualized Education Programs], meeting the new...requirement has been a significant...investment in order to build a long-term solution," she said. Looking forward, the DOE is building a "claim generation system," she said, that will gather data on providers, students, and services. Conforme said the department is also training teachers and providers on the use of the new system.
At one of the more heated moments of the hearing, Jackson even told DOE officials that many of them would've been fired if the department was a private corporation.
Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer, who Quinn praised in her remarks (both are mayoral hopefuls), stopped by to offer some testimony, saying, this failure is unacceptable as working class families are struggling to make ends meet.
"It's disturbing that the DOE is failing to stretch its dollars and is instead paying bills to the federal government," he said.

(Sometimes confounded with John of Segovia ).
A Dominican theologian, president of the Council of Basle, legate to Constantinople, b. at Ragusa about 1380; d. at Argos, in the Peloponnesus, probably 1443. He entered the Dominican Order and devoted himself to the observance of the rule of his order and the study of the sacred sciences . By reason of his great attainments in theology, Scripture, and the Oriental languages, he was considered an oracle in his native Dalmatia. At the University of Paris he shone conspicuously and there received the doctor's cap about the beginning of the fifteenth century. In the year 1426 he was appointed procurator general of the Dominican Order, and went to reside at Rome under Pope Martin V. There he received marks of honour and esteem from the pope and the College of Cardinals, and the former eventually named him papal theologian for the General Council of Basle. John was, moreover, chosen to open the council, in place of Cardinal Julian Cesarini, who was detained by other business. Arriving at Basle on 19 May, 1431, he on the same day arranged with the Bishop of Basle for the opening of the council on the 23rd of the same month. The opening did not take place, however, until 23 July, 1431, in the cathedral church, when John preached from the text: "Et angelus testamenti, quem vos vultis. Ecce venit" ( Malachi 3:1 ). In the council he exonerated the absent cardinals from the charge of contempt (Feb., 1433). On eight mornings he spoke against the doctrines of the Hussites and crushed all that was reprehensible in that heresy.
Having been sent as a legate of the council to Conatantinople to urge the reunion of the Eastern and Western Churches, John of Ragusa induced the Emperor John Paleologus and the Patriarch Joseph to send an embassy to the council through the treaty which they made with Pope Eugenius IV was broken by the Greeks. John afterwards sojourned at Constantinople to study the Greek language and to become better acquainted with the situation of ecclesiastical affairs. Here he completed an etymological work bearing upon the Greek text of Scripture and destined to be of service to Catholic controversialists in treating of the doctrine of the Procession of the Holy Ghost against the Greek schismatics. He returned to Bologna as a member of a deputation, to obtain from Eugenius IV an assurance that the pope would be present at the council. Having acceded to this request, Eugenius employed John once more to be the bearer of a document (dated 15 July, 1437) to the Greek emperor in which the emperor's assistance was invited at a meeting of the council to be held in some Italian city. John's subsequent course has been a subject of dispute: some authors assert that he remained in sympathy with the council, while others insist that he allied himself with Eugenius IV, who made him Bishop of Argos. It is probable that he took the side of Eugenius. His extant writings are: (1) Discourse against the Hussites delivered at the Council of Basle ; (2) the Acts, or Reports, of his embassies to Constantinople, to be found among the Acts of the Council of Basle ; (3) an account of his travels in the East, preserved by Leo Allatius . His work on Greek indeclinable nouns and Scriptural Greek etymology seems to have been lost.
The Catholic Encyclopedia is the most comprehensive resource on Catholic teaching, history, and information ever gathered in all of human history. This easy-to-search online version was originally printed between 1907 and 1912 in fifteen hard copy volumes.
Designed to present its readers with the full body of Catholic teaching, the Encyclopedia contains not only precise statements of what the Church has defined, but also an impartial record of different views of acknowledged authority on all disputed questions, national, political or factional. In the determination of the truth the most recent and acknowledged scientific methods are employed, and the results of the latest research in theology, philosophy, history, apologetics, archaeology, and other sciences are given careful consideration.
No one who is interested in human history, past and present, can ignore the Catholic Church, either as an institution which has been the central figure in the civilized world for nearly two thousand years, decisively affecting its destinies, religious, literary, scientific, social and political, or as an existing power whose influence and activity extend to every part of the globe. In the past century the Church has grown both extensively and intensively among English-speaking peoples. Their living interests demand that they should have the means of informing themselves about this vast institution, which, whether they are Catholics or not, affects their fortunes and their destiny.

Historical Version(s) - view previous versions of standard
Significance and Use
5.1 The procedure described is specific for chromium in wet blue. Vanadium is the only common interfering element and this is rarely present in quantity. The precision and accuracy of the methods are usually at least as good as the sampling of the wet blue itself, and the accuracy of previously performed test methods.
5.2 The chromium content of wet blue is related to the degree of tannage obtained, and hence may be a matter for specification in the purchase of wet blue. The procedure described provides adequate accuracy for this purpose.
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of chromic oxide in wet blue that has been partly or completely tanned with chromium compounds. In general the samples will contain chromium content between 1 and 5 %, calculated as chromic oxide expressed upon a dry basis otherwise referred to as moisture-free basis (mfb).
1.2 This test method is specific in that it applies to a sample or samples that are the resultant ash following the execution of Test Method D6716.
1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Specific hazards are given in Section 8.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.

BUENA VISTA TOWNSHIP, MI — MLive.com readers believe the Saginaw Intermediate School District was right not to send all former Buena Vista School District students to the same district.
In an informal poll, 24.2 percent of voters said Buena Vista students should have gone to the same school district. Three-quarters of the voters agreed with the Saginaw ISD's decision.
Saginaw School District will absorb 261 students, and Bridgeport-Spaulding will receive 135 students, although families have the option of sending their pupils to other districts through schools of choice or enrolling in charter schools or private schools.
MLive readers discussed how students will fare at their new schools.
Commenter OneBirchRun said new schools won't make a difference.
Commenter casper489 agreed.
Students that will be sent to Saginaw Public will have nearly the same conditions as they are leaving. Bridgeport students will be marginally better off. And the imaginary students that would be going to Frankenmuth...well I guess they are the same off too; cause they don't exist. Sounds like a wash to me. Guess the only people who got screwed are the district employees.
There will be no benefit for any of the students who now will be going to the Saginaw schools or those going to Bridgeport. It will just be more of the same. As someone said, the ones who would do go at BV will do good at the new schools but not the others. Sad to say!
A kid that was a good student in the dysfunctional mess at BV will be able to excel someone who was a poor student has a chance now but it still takes parenting to make it happen.
Students going to Saginaw Public will now be part of the Saginaw Promise Zone. I think that is a benefit.

May 11: R. Carlos Nakai & Will Clipman at MIM
Saturday 5.11.2013 @ 7:30pm | ImagesAZ | Community
Venue: 4725 E. Mayo Boulevard, Phoenix.
Tucson-based multi-instrumentalist R. Carlos Nakai is the world's premier performer of the Native American flute. A cultural anthropologist of Navajo-Ute descent, he began his musical studies on the trumpet but his musical interests took a turn when he was given a traditional cedar flute as a gift and challenged to master it.
Join Nakai and Will Clipman at the Musical Instrument Museum Saturday, May 11 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets for this spectacular performance are $32.50 to $37.50 and the Musical Instrument Museum is located at 4725 E. Mayo Boulevard, Phoenix.
Nakai is a traditionalist who views his cultural heritage not only as a source of inspiration, but also as a dynamic continuum of natural change, growth, and adaptation subject to expressive needs. He creates original compositions that capture the essence of his heritage in highly personalized ways.

In the 1930's, certain federal legislation required two U.S. Supreme Court decisions to be affirmed and then part of the legislation was delayed in its implementation for one year. It was the Social Security Act and required quite a bit of tweaking.
The Affordable Care Act will require that type of fine-tuning and over time will be a benefit to America.
On Jan. 1, 2014 it will be illegal for health insurers to deny coverage or charge you more because of your gender or pre-existing condition(s). Before the ACA a majority of home foreclosures and bankruptcies were tied to medical debt. A majority of those people HAD health insurance, but had reached lifetime limits. With the ACA there will be no lifetime dollar limits.
If your health insurance company refuses to cover something you need, after an internal appeal denial, you can use an independent ombudsman to review the situation. Out of network emergency room visits must be covered by health insurance at in-network fees. Since Sept. 1, 2010, 80 to 85 percent of health insurance premium dollars must be spent on actual care. In 2011, $56 million in rebate checks were distributed to Pennsylvania insurance customers.
Traditional Medicare since January 1, 2011 has provided preventive care (colonoscopies, annual wellness check-up, flu shot, mammogram) without charging a copay. The donut hole (in Medicare drug coverage) will be gradually closed by 2020.
If you miss the Dec. 23, 2013 due date, (for getting ACA-compliant coverage effective Jan. 1), you will have until March 31, 2014. After March 31, 2014, the next open enrollment period begins November 15, 2014.
If you have questions visit healthcare.gov or telephone 1-800-318-2596 anytime. To find local help visit www.localhelp.healthcare.gov.
The implementation and eventual success of the ACA will be no different than Social Security in the 1930's and Medicare in 1965.

Until Cramer, that living caricature of a talking stock market head, says ETP is a buy, there's still time to get in. When we solidly cross 50, he's gonna announce, with horns blaring, and various nauseating sound effects, that ETP is a glaring buy, and in 2013, has been the best mover in his trust's portfolio, When he does this, you've already, officially, missed the boat.
Sentiment: Buy
Cramer is an idiot. I still remember when he said Lucent Technologies (LU) was a screaming buy at 50. It was sold to another company for 7.
After LU recovered from being as low as 25 cents, think it was sold at $4 to Acaltel
Cramers an idiot !!!
I own Ford stock and at 9,10,11,12 and he said don't buy all during it's run up.
Then it hits $13 and he says buy buy buy !!!!
He's a FOOL and always gets his loyal idiots in at the top and then they whine when it goes down a bit ...
Well, Cramer dumped the stock, now maybe he'll stop referring to it as the worse stock in his trust. He talks as though he didn't receive the fat distributions and let's face it, last year was bad all around for MLPs. It was the first year in 13 that MLPs trailed the S&P, probably because Cramer bought one.
Actually the boat left when they put together the tax deal. Since then MLPs have bee4n up almost daily and the AMZ hit another new all time high today. All sectors of MLPs have moved up sharply. ETP could truly and easily move to $50 if (I do not expect it this quarter) announce a distirbution increase or when the earnings come out and the have a DCF in the 1.1-1.2X coverage.
I had a dream last night..Cramer slipped on camera and fell dead !!!!
his picks of the seven samaurai or the interenet tsunami are no where to be seen.
what a looser..no more on apple's tip yimmy i mean slimey jimmy? lol
Looser: I have looser jeans then that chick over there.
Loser: I am a loser.
I can not believe how many people do not know how to spell "loser" correctly...

Police arrested a man after they say he robbed a York County Walmart Saturday morning.
Police in Springettsbury Township said Curtis Turane, of Columbia, robbed the store just before 4 a.m.
Turane gave a note to a cashier in the electronics department, saying he had a gun and wanted $20 bills, according to police.
Police said Turane got the money, but an employee followed him out and gave police a description of his van.
Turane was released on $25,000 unsecured but supervised bail Saturday morning and is awaiting a preliminary hearing.

"Working 9 to 5 - what a way to make a living. Barely getting by - it's all taking and no giving. They just use your mind and they never give you credit. It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it."
- Dolly Parton, "9 to 5."
Ultimately, whether Potter County switches to a four-day work week from the traditional five-day drudgery most of us plod through on a weekly basis should come down to Facilities Director Mike Head's calculator.
Head is the MacGyver of Potter County.
While it is not true that Head used a toothpick, a paper clip, duct tape and a roll of thread to renovate the Santa Fe Building, it is true that Head knows just about every nook and cranny of county property - and how to fix it and how much it will cost.
That's why when Head provides an estimate to commissioners on how much the county will save in taxpayer money through decreased utility costs by switching to a four-day work week, they need to crunch these numbers like a pirate on a cereal box.
Money - whatever the amount might be - is the only reason for the county to even consider this idea, which was brought up Monday by County Judge Arthur Ware.
While nothing has been voted on, it is obvious that many county and elected officials have discussed this idea amongst themselves - that is working from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Thursday with a three-day weekend rather than working from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday with Saturday and Sunday off.
Head said Monday the county would save money under a four-day work week, but that he will put a pen to it to get an estimate on how much the county would save in utility costs by closing up shop three days a week.
Whatever the number is, it needs to be a pretty good chunk of change to go to 4/10 from 5/8.
The other reasons for switching, primarily the assumed decrease in gas use by county employees, don't make much sense.
There is a Web site called "theoildrum.com" which lists 16 reasons for a four-day work week, and most of them center on the positive environmental impact through less oil and gas use because employees will be driving to work one less day per week.
The presumed green advantage of this four-day work week assumes that employees will be sedentary every Friday and hold down the couch rather than drive their cars.
It is unwise to underestimate the laziness of most of us, but with a three-day weekend every week, most of probably are going to increase the time we spend in our cars, either running errands, going out of town or just to get from here to there since we have more time to do what we want rather than what the boss wants.
Another Web site, geocities.com, lists "errands that have to be done during normal business hours can be done on your day off" as a benefit of the four-day work week. These errands aren't going to be done on a bike.
For the sake of argument, employees probably use less gas during a five-day work week because once they get to the office, the only excursion is for lunch or to go home.
If going green is the motivation behind this idea, the green needs to be about saving money on utilities, not gas.
You don't say
Opinions others won't give: The past three days are perhaps the most impressive trifecta of anniversaries in Major League Baseball's lengthy history. On Tuesday in 1958, Stan Musial became the eighth player to reach 3,000 hits; on Wednesday in 1967, Mickey Mantle became the sixth member of the 500-home run club; and Nolan Ryan pitched the first of his seven no-hitters today in 1973. By the way, on Sunday in 2003, Rafael Palmeiro became the 19th player to hit 500 home runs. For some reason, though, the latter juicy feat was not included on the National Baseball Hall of Fame daily calendar.
A pat on the back ...
To Ben Moore: The Panhandle High School senior set the school record in the 3200 meters and won the Class 2A silver medal at the state track and field meet this past weekend. Ben is one of the sons of the late Terry Moore, a former sports writer/outdoors writer/columnist for the Amarillo Globe-News. Ben is the spitting image of his bear of a father, who would probably agree that his son would be better off if he favored his mother, Suzy. Ben can take after his father in other ways, also. Terry probably was the most trustworthy person I ever met in my life. In my book, that is the ultimate compliment.
and a kick in the pants.
To cumulative voting: Amarillo College used cumulative voting, where voters can divide votes among the field, for the first time in Saturday's election as a way to increase minority representation and avoid a costly lawsuit. Prenis Williams, who is black and already on the board of regents, was the top vote-getter at 15 of the 23 polling places, indicating he had broad support throughout Amarillo, certainly more than any of the other five candidates. Williams finished no lower than third at any of the polling places. Since the top three vote-getters earned a spot on the board, more than likely Williams would be on the AC board no matter the voting system.
