How does it happen that the weekends fly by?

Milwaukee Opera Theatre, Genghis Barbie rock the art song
Audiences at opera singers' recitals do not, customarily, pump their arms and cheer. Of course, singers at said recitals don't usually perform tunes by Queen and Guns N' Roses flanked by a quartet of female horn players, either.
Saturday evening's Milwaukee Opera Theatre presentation of Andrew Wilkowske in "Guns N' Rosenkavalier," directed by John Glover at the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music, was a riot of rule-breaking, genre-bending tunes from the worlds of art song and rock. »Read Full Article

I'm not surprised that cupcakes have become such a national trend. After all, what's better than a slice of cake? A mini cake made just for you. Individualized and mini desserts are all the rage, but the trend is less pronounced in savory dishes, and I'm not sure why. Individual tarts –whether served as an appetizer or side dish, are a way to impress even the most jaded dinner guests.
There is one reason I can think of that individual tarts aren't the most popular item: time. Pressing the dough in to each muffin pan shell takes a little patience. There are however two alternatives to this. Unger's makes frozen mini pie shells (that are kosher, pareve, and not exceptionally expensive). If you want to enjoy the flavors of crisp pie crust with the golden leeks and toasty cauliflower, but don't care too much about having adorable mini tarts, then adapt this recipe for make a large tart shell instead. If you do so, cut the dough recipe in half for one tart, but keep the filling amount about the same.
Cauliflower and Leek Tarlets – Makes 20 to 24 tartlets or 2 10-inch tarts
1 cup (2 sticks) butter or margarine
2 ½ cups flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 tablespoons ice water
1 large head of cauliflower, washed and chopped in to small, even pieces
3 cloves of garlic, peeled and diced
Two stalks leek, washed and diced
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
salt and pepper
1 egg, beaten
bread or cornflake crumbs
Using a pastry cutter or food processor, cut the butter in to the flour and salt until only small pieces of butter remain. Add the water, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough starts to come together (you may not need all 4). Gather the dough together in a ball, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Press about two tablespoons of dough into the bottom of each greased muffin pan shell. (A tool for pressing down the dough, called a tamper, is sold in cooking store, a shot glass does about the same job). Stick the muffin pans in the freezer for 30 minutes. (If making a large tart, press the dough evenly in to the bottom of the greased pan.)
Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the leeks and cook, stirring regularly, for 30 to 40 minutes, until dark brown and caramelized. Remove from the heat.
Toss the cauliflower and garlic together with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Spread in a single layer on a metal baking sheet (better to use two than to crowd it) and roast on 450 F for 20 to 30 minutes, tossing occasionally, and checking to make sure it doesn't burn. Set aside.
Lower the oven to 375 F and bake the pie shells for 20 minutes.
Mix the cauliflower and leek together, and add salt and pepper to taste. Mix in the beaten egg, and divide the mixture evenly among the pie shells. Sprinkle the tops of the tarts with bread or cornflake crumbs.
Return the filled shells to the oven, and continue baking for 30 minutes.

Newark's City Council on Tuesday approved a revenue-sharing deal between the city and the NHL's New Jersey Devils for the Prudential Center arena. The council vote Tuesday ends a bitter yearslong battle that reached a low point last year when Mayor Cory Booker called Devils chairman Jeff Vanderbeek a "Grade-A huckster" and accused him of reneging on promises made to the city.

Torchlight II Cheats
Or is it just me?
[Edited by IceTBC, 10/11/2012 10:48:53 PM]
Also, when I enable the editor, a lot of skills suddenly gain or lose levels. I started a level 1 character, enabled the editor and suddenly I had level 7/5/15 passives (Even though they're still grayed out!). Using skills, some passives indeed did proc on me. (Such as the engineers power surge)
I highly recommend people to be careful with this version especially.
The previous editors have all worked for me but this latest version (188.8.131.52) is crashing my game every time once the game loads my character. The version number displayed on the editor pop up matches up properly to my steam version of the game (188.8.131.52). Anyone else having this problem?
[Edited by IceTBC, 10/11/2012 10:48:53 PM]
I have a similar issue here.
I load editor and activate it at menu screen. Whether I change any values or any enable options or not, the game will crash when I load my character.
If I wait to activate the editor until I have loaded the character, the game will crash once I hit an enemy.

Hi Berries!
I have appreciated all the support you've given me over the last several months regarding my journey with endometriosis and struggling with infertility.
Today I had my first laproscopic surgery to definitively diagnose the endo. They did find it, and removed it from my L ovary and a little on the uterus. No adhesions, no scarring, and able to get most of it out! They also pushed dye through my tubes and said everything there was clear.
Dr. said prognosis for getting pregnant is GREAT! I am soooo excited, and will let you know as soon as I get that BFP. If you think of it, I would really appreciate your prayers and positive thoughts.
Thanks all!bio: Raphael David, Ignatius Peter

35 Tasting Notes
Nice and dark, the chocolate was very evident when smelled dry with subtle hints of licorice. On steeping, the chocolate faded with more vegital notes coming forward. It's mild, smooth and dry.
Flavors: Chocolate, Vegetal, Zucchini
Not going to lie, this one is awesome! Nice and complex with all the spices. The pepper and cardamom work really well with the mint. I did find the tea wanted some sweetener, so I added a tsp of natural sugar. :) So good. In fact, the wife had an upset stomach last night and I made some of this for her. Helped her settle down.
This is really, really nice. The wine notes are bold but not overwhelming, and the green tea clearly shines through. There's a remarkable floral quality to the dry tea that reminds me strongly of grape must. It's also present in the liquor, but more subtly. A really nice blend.
This is a very good, really smooth green tea. I steeped it for 3 minutes (recommended on the packet) and found that to be too long. I'm fairly sensitive to bitterness though. My second steeping for 90 seconds came out much better.
This has a wonderful fresh vegital aroma when dry with strong notes of grass and much lighter of spinach and smoke. The smokiness is there in the tea in the background. It doesn't push to the front at all but does make itself known. Its definitely slightly sweet and grassy and very, very smooth. The after notes are exactly the same flavors as when drinking directly for a loooong finish.
If you're looking for a medium flavored (as opposed to a delicate or strongly flavored) sencha that's delightfully smooth, this is the one.
I'm not a big fan of Teavana's agressive selling techniques, but I and my daughter both like this tea a lot. I steeled myself to brave the local mall just after Christmas and to my delight found it on sale for 75% off :)
It has the perfect notes of sweetness and astringency and is well balanced in flavor with lots of yummy orange in both flavor and aroma. It's my favorite orange tea.
I'm not a huge fan of coconut in my tea, it usually smells musty to me. Hot, this was..ok, but nothing to rave over or seek out to drink again. But cold? Wowzers this is gooood! I added a tsp of agave to the hot tea and because I wasn't thrilled with it, the cup sat around and got cold. I'm so glad it did! This is very fruity and refreshing while cold. I can easily see myself drinking a lot more of this in the summer.

Local farmers share their bounty
Spring temperatures have news from area farmers popping up faster than the crocuses in the yard.
Gordon Post in North East said he expects to begin planting this week, weather permitting, and reminded followers on Facebook that there's still time to join his CSA.
Prices are up again this year, in part due to labor costs, Post reported. A one-half share, approximately one-half bushel of fruits and vegetables per week, will cost about $375 and includes about six hours of volunteer work on the farm (new this year). Prices vary, depending on whether you want to buy out the work share and/or are paying in full or on a payment plan.
The work component can mean coming to the farm and providing labor, or helping to post recipes on the Facebook page. That portion needs to be negotiated with Post. The application and prices can be found at www.postapples.com.
Post has drop-off sites around Erie, or you can pick up at the farm. Western Millcreek/Fairview's pickup point is Competitive Gear on West 12th Street.
Cynthia Beck of Peace by Piece Farm is also accepting shares. Contact her for prices, but note that her farm's half share is equal to a quarter bushel. Beck has some drop-off points, mostly south of Erie, and does offer home delivery.
To learn more about Beck and her farm, go to the Erie Home and Garden Expo this weekend at the Bayfront Convention Center. Beck is scheduled to speak at 1:30 p.m. Saturday. She can also be contacted by e-mail at email@example.com.
March is my favorite time to start thinking about green. I have parsley, rosemary, thyme and basil starting in the greenhouse, along with two trays of a lettuce mix and two dozen tomato plants (I know, too early). They were the inspiration for my cooking class Sunday at Frankie & May Fresh Grocer.
Tour area sugaring shacks during the Northwest Pennsylvania Maple Association's 9th Annual Taste & Tour Weekend, March 24 and 25. You won't need boots this year, but bring your appetite for sugar candies, syrup and a pancake breakfast at the Edinboro Volunteer Fire Department social hall, 125 Meadville St., both days from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. during the Edinboro Maple Festival the same weekend. Cost: $7, adults; $3, children 12 and under.
Maple, the sweet taste of spring, will be the theme of my next cooking class at Frankie & May on April 15 from 1 to 3 p.m. Visit www.frankieandmay.com for class info.

Kindness killed, just as surely as the huntsman's knife
Seven For A Secret - an anonymous fanfic author creates seven unhappy ( or at least, unconventional ) endings for Disney Princesses by placing them in proper historical, mythological, or thematic context.
"Mio, min Mio" av Astrid Lindgren
This 1987 live-action film version of an allegorical fantasy by Swedish children's author Astrid Lindgren was co-produced by Swedish, Norwegian, and Soviet filmmakers; shot in Sweden, Scotland, and the USSR; and starred a mixed British/Russian/Swedish cast. Among others, it featured confirmed wizard Christopher Lee and an adolescent Christian "This Isn't a Car" Bale, and was scored by Abba's Benny Andersson. [more inside]
There is always a last time for everything
Is Science Fiction promoting pseuodoscience? Is it not really better than fantasy? Is it exhausted and dying, per Paul Kincaid (part 1, part 2), a sort of genre-writing version of completing a list of The Nine Billion Names of God? Does physics-bothering unrepentant space case Alistair Reynolds have a compass pointing the way forwards?
Is the beard gray? Does he have a donut-shaped beard extremity? Does he look goofy?

South Wales, and Beyond the Infinite
What I wrote was unquestionably fiction — was fantasy. Among Others has magic and fairies. But I was writing fantasy about a science fiction reader who had a lot of the same things happen to her that happened to me. It's set at the end of 1979 and the beginning of 1980, and it's about a fifteen year old just when I was fifteen, and from a family like mine and in the time and place and context where I was. I was using a lot of my own experience and memories. But this is Mori, not me, and she lives in a world where magic is real. Jo Walton, who as editor for tor.com revisisted the Hugos 1953-2000, now has one of her own, taking home the 2012 Best Novel Award for Among Others. Other winners include Kij Johnson for her Novella The Man who Bridged the Mist (excerpt) and io9 regular Charlie Jane Anders for her novellete Six Months, Three Days. The Best Graphic Story award went to the webcomic Digger by Ursula Vernon. E Lily Yu took home the Bets New Writer award (technically not a Hugo) and was also nominated for her short story The Cartographer Wasps and the Anarchist Bees.

How to be a fan of problematic things.
The wizard under the hill
Alan Garner's Weirdstone of Brisingamen trilogy is to be concluded with Boneland, over 50 years after it started.
There are neither beginnings or endings to the turning of the Wheel of Time. But it was a beginning.
"It all started with wondering what it was really like to be tapped on the shoulder and told that you are the savior of mankind. Ten years of thinking about that, and I began writing." He was James Oliver Rigney, Jr., a Vietnam vet who went on to get a degree in physics from The Citadel, and was then a nuclear engineer for the US Navy. He put all that behind him and started writing a variety of fantasy novels under various aliases. As Reagan O'Neal, he wrote the Fallon trilogy of historical fantasy in the early 1980s, which he followed up with a quick series of Conan novels as Robert Jordan. Under this pen name, he spent a decade planning and four years writing The Eye of the World, the first book in The Wheel of Time, an epic storyline in a fantasy world. Jordan had planned out the broad story arc from the beginning to the "final scene in the final book," but he died before his epic tale could be completed. A young author, Brandon Sanderson, was chosen by Rigney's wife and editor, Harriet McDougal, to complete the portions of the tale left as a loose collection of notes. One last book became three, and just last month, the release date of the final book was set: January 8, 2013, in the final month of the Year of the Dragon. Now that the end is in sight, you might feel the pull of nostalgia to finish the series, or maybe you're interested to see what all this fuss is about. With around 11,000 pages, 635 chapters, and more than four million words, it's a complex, daunting world to (re)enter. Fear not, the internet is here to help. [more inside]

The Fantasy Novelist's Exam: "Ever since J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis created the worlds of Middle Earth and Narnia, it seems like every windbag off the street thinks he can write great, original fantasy, too. The problem is that most of this "great, original fantasy" is actually poor, derivative fantasy. Frankly, we're sick of it, so we've compiled a list of rip-off tip-offs in the form of an exam. We think anybody considering writing a fantasy novel should be required to take this exam first. Answering "yes" to any one question results in failure and means that the prospective novel should be abandoned at once."
Stuck in the Trollmire
Tales of Maj'Eyal (ToME) is a graphical roguelike RPG. It started off in 1998 as an Angband variant (history), but has since been completely rewritten, ditching both the engine and the Tolkien setting. It recently became the first game to win the Roguelike of the Year award for two years in a row (and also the first game to win it more than once). [more inside]

Skip to comments.Pilot's gun discharges on US Airways flight
Posted on 03/23/2008 6:14:42 PM PDT by RDTF
CHARLOTTE, N.C.-- A US Airways pilots gun accidentally discharged during a flight from Denver to Charlotte Saturday, according to as statement released by the airline. The statement said the discharge happened on Flight 1536, which left Denver at approximately 6:45am and arrived in Charlotte at approximately 11:51am.
The Airbus A319 plane landed safely and none of the flights 124 passengers or five crew members was injured, according to the statement. It was a full flight. An airline spokeswoman said the plane has been taken out of service to make sure it is safe to return to flight. A Transportation Safety Administration spokeswoman reached by WCNC Sunday said the pilot is part of TSAs Federal Flight Deck Officer (FFDO) program, which trains pilots to carry guns on flights.

I wonder how many lives have been saved by a spare round in the chamber versus how many legs and feet have been shot accidentally. I can see having a chambered round on patrol in a war zone. Otherwise, I think it's stupid practice.
That wasn't bad mouthing, Eaker. You'll know it if I ever bad mouth you, and it wouldn't come on a fire arms thread to be sure!
Everybody knows that Glocks go off by themselves.
They're taking the plane out of service to look and see where the bullet went.
Actually, revolvers are deceiving in that they are internally much more complicated (more moving parts) than a semiauto. Outwardly, they are indeed simpler to use. If you like them, than that is the weapon for you. I like them as well, especially in .357 although it is not my own first choice when I go shooting. I've recommended them many times to people who only want to own one handgun that is simple to operate.
Kinda like an SUV discharging itself into oncoming traffic?
Three men in the car being chased by police jumped out and ran, officers said. One was tackled and it was at that point that the officer accidentally shot herself.
How do you know she was holstering her weapon?
Now tell us when you got this gun god complex going. (snicker, duck & hide)
As far as it being unholstered, it is supposed to be holstered in an issue holster. Recently FFDOs were being issued a new holster that had a slot to insert a padlock for transport.
If I wasn't so old and you weren't a SEAL I'd search ya out!
If you look closely I think you can see some clear plastic goggles on the guy with the gun to his own head. Hard to tell for sure, the pic isn't high resolution enough.
The more knobs, levers, buttons, you add the more worthless, but lawyer and liberal Politburo acceptable, the gun becomes. Your finger is your safety. Don't put it on the trigger if you don't plan to shoot, how's that?
Any pistol with a decocker lever is perfectly safe with a round in the chamber. Actually, now that I'm thinking on it, any pistol is perfectly safe with a round in the chamber, so long as it's a double action or the safety is on, or both.
Maybe we can go yell at each other on an Obama thread!
I heard the news report
I found a link that mentions it:
Well, please explain.
Actually, there is nothing wrong with a Glock. Just keep the dang thing in a holster until you want to shoot somebody! Then it will work, guarandamnteed, 18 times in a row.
Maybe so, but it is no big deal to totally tear a revolver completely apart (including all internal parts) to clean it. I have done it many times with my black powder revolvers.
Good thing the gun was in the cockpit when it fired itself. There's electronics and cables down around the cargo bays, if it had fired itself there it may have caused damage, maybe hitting the center fuel tank!
Naah! But an awful lot of posters on FR do... /grin
What's the trigger pull of a Glock vs a revolver?
Less is more.
Of course, you are right. Those zoomies don't need gunz anyway, they already have fire extinguishers and fire axes, no need for firearms as well.........
"All the more reason not to have a round in the chamber."
That's what the Marines in Lebanon were told to do, what could go wrong?
I think Condition 1 is OK, but you should not goof around with it in that state. It's safe in its holster and won't go off if you have a good holster.
Let's see what details come out.
Whats the trigger pull of a Glock vs a revolver?
128 posted on 03/23/2008 8:34:44 PM MDT by DBrow
A DA revolver is about 12# uncocked and about 5# cocked.
Glocks come in 3.5#, 5#, 8.5# and 12# triggers
A DA revolver is about 12# uncocked and about 5# cocked.
I have seen between 3 to 15 pounds. The first for competition and the highest for New York cops.
So when the door opens for any reason the pilot is supposed to pull out the gun and chamber a round? And when the door closes, the pilot is supposed to unchamber that round? How many times does the pilot do that? And then there is the issue of the time to chamber a round when the door is forcefully breached. IMO, it's safer to leave it loaded, with a round in the chamber, and the gun in the holster.
Subjectively, I cannot tell the difference between the DA trigger pull on my semi-automatic Ruger .45 and my Dan Wesson .357. I'd say my .357 has a lighter trigger pull used single action.
That's a great scene and line from a really cool movie. However, the scenario Bond is describing is pure Hollywood myth and BS. This myth of a single small-caliber puncture in the fuselage automatically resulting in "explosive decompression" is simply nonsense.
While no one should claim that such an occurrence would be desirable, the fact is that all pressurized airplanes are, by design, constantly leaking air. The pressurization status is maintained just by having the pumps maintain the desired differential between the inside pressure and the outside pressure. I have read somewhere that on a large airliner the fuselage exhaust hole for this system is about the size of a basketball.
If you shot a hole through the fuselage wall with a pistol you could probably seal it by slapping one of those magazines from behind the seats over it.... /grin
I have a .45 revolver by my bed. I get the benefit of .45ACP modern bullet design, and the simplicity of point click interface. And moon clip reloading. And that sweet S&W trigger. And nearly infinite reliability.
Yes, I saw that. G. Gordon Liddy was right.
So in NY, if pull length is equal, Glocks and revolvers are the same.
But a 12 lb revolver and a 5 lb Glock are not the same wrt trigger snags or other things poking to go-bar.
I like Glocks, most NDs I've heard of had nothing to do with design.
Glocks being popular with cops and civvies alike, there are lots of them out there, so an accident won't be that rare.
Paraord's LDA hammer is partially cocked too. If you don't believe it, try inserting a dead cartridge (on the range, keep it pointed in a safe direction etc!), and then pull the trigger twice. I agree they have the dissimilar safety setup, and are thus different from the others that way.
Daewoo pistols have a partially cocked safety.
I like the ParaOrd designs a lot. I have small to medium hands, and the double stack isn't good for me, but their LTC in particular works for me very well.
I think they are bismuth rounds which have low penetration on bulkheads. Saw a video they were like plaster of paris bullets.
Yup. Worthless pieces of used food. The proper flight deck weapon is a good quality 1911-pattern .45 in Condition 3 (full mag, empty chamber.)
I carry my .45 with its 4 (spare) magazines.
Revolver is for bedside.
"B-B-But it-itzzz not suppose ta have a (snork) bullet in the buh-buh barrel thingy if you're not using it (sniff)".
What good is a weapon without a round in the chamber ? Might as well be carrying a brick.
Semper Fi
glock owner x 2
looks like more ammo for the liberal propaganda mission to ban guns
Was the Pilots name Barney Fife?
Hark! I hear a pistol shot!

NEW YORK — J. Crew Group Inc. will pay Millard "Mickey" Drexler cash compensation of up to $700,000 a year, plus various options and awards, according to filings released by the Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday.
This story first appeared in the February 4, 2003 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
The $700,000 includes base salary, bonuses and expense reimbursement, while the options come in different volumes and strike prices. Drexler has an option to buy 557,926 shares at an exercise price of $6.82 a share, an option to purchase 836,889 shares at a strike price of $25 and an option to buy 836,889 shares at $35. Additionally, Drexler will receive 725,303 restricted stock awards, subject to various vesting schedules, and another 55,793 shares as fully vested restricted stock.
On Thursday, J. Crew named the former Gap chief executive officer as its chairman and ceo, succeeding as ceo his former Gap colleague Ken Pilot, who had been in the job for only five months. Emily Woods, who remains on the board, had been chairman.
As part of his arrival, Drexler bought a 3 percent stake in J. Crew for $10 million and likely got a low entry price so there's more incentive for him to take the company public. He also could lure other investors, thereby reducing Texas Pacific Group's majority stake.
TPG hopes Drexler can sharpen J. Crew's image, maximize its brand potential, and, eventually, allow it to cash out of its flagging investment. TPG bought J. Crew in 1997 for $560 million and intended to take the company public in spring 2001, but backed off after the market turned volatile and Crew's performance weakened. Reportedly, TPG has also tried to sell J. Crew and approached several potential buyers. According to one source, "a few years ago, TPG could have doubled its money, but they probably thought they could get more."
Now, the company that was worth almost $1 billion six years ago when TPG bought it is worth less than half that, brought down by a revolving door of ceos and senior managers who were brought in to turn around the operation.
Drexler was ousted at Gap last fall, after years of eroding sales and declining market share, and was replaced by former Walt Disney Co. executive Paul Pressler. About the same time, the chain began to show a sales rebound as a result of a return to basic and classic styles, largely due to Drexler's final fall push. He still commands credibility in the marketplace as a talented merchant, despite struggling for years to turn around Gap.
In the same filing, president Jeffrey Pfeifle will receive an annual base salary of $760,000, an annual bonus of up to 100 percent of the base salary based on certain achievement objectives, and a long-term cash incentive of between $800,000 and $1.2 million. Pfeifle's contract also provides for a one-time signing bonus of $2 million. Subject to certain stockholder approvals, he also will receive an option to purchase 167,378 shares at an exercise price of $6.82 a share, an option to buy 111,585 shares at $25 a share and an option to purchase 111,585 shares at a strike price of $35. He will also receive 111,585 restricted shares, subject to various vesting schedules.

Varina student selected as 'ambassador'
Varina Elementary School fifth grader Zareon Pettiford has been selected to participate in the People to People Student Ambassadors Program and will study in Australia for 14 days in July.
Pettiford was nominated by teachers and school guidance counselors, who say that he is a classroom leader and serves as a role model for younger students. In February, he won first place in an oratorical contest sponsored by Delta Sigma Theta, in which he recited Dr. Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech.
A member of the safety patrol, Pettiford is also a boy scout and plays football for Varina Athletic Association. In addition, he ran the 200m, 400m, 1500m and 2x4 relay in track and is featured in the AAU book "The Best of the Best Athletes" in track and field for 2011. At Good Shepherd Baptist Church, he sings in the youth choir, is a member of the Men of Iron ministry, and has served as vice president of the junior youth fellowship (JYF).
The People to People program was founded by former President Dwight Eisenhower, and the honorary chairmen are all past presidents. People to People Student Ambassadors Programs offer international educational and travel opportunities to students from grades 5-12. Pettiford will travel as part of a delegation of 11 rising sixth graders and will be the only student from Henrico County Public Schools.

Nearly 20,000 votes have been cast in our SportsNation poll from last week, and the fans have tabbed South Carolina's Connor Shaw as their SEC quarterback of choice.
The question that was posed last week in the SEC blog was simply this: Who would you take at quarterback right now in the SEC?
Shaw collected 31 percent of the vote to beat out Alabama's AJ McCarron and Georgia's Aaron Murray, who tied with 26 percent each. The other two choices were Florida's Jeff Driskel (10 percent) and Arkansas' Tyler Wilson (7 percent).
As I stated last week, fans have all sorts of different criteria they use in evaluating quarterbacks.
My choice was McCarron, who's now gone 206 pass attempts without throwing an interception dating back to last season. McCarron has passed for 999 yards and 12 touchdowns this season.
When making my choice, I went back and forth between McCarron and Murray, who leads the SEC in passing efficiency through five weeks. Murray has passed for 1,378 yards, 12 touchdowns and three interceptions this season.
And, yes, Shaw entered my mind, especially after being in Columbia, S.C., two weeks ago to see him complete 20 straight passes in the 31-10 win over Missouri. I ended up having Shaw third on my list. In his past two games, he's 35-of-39 for 397 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions. He's also rushed for 117 yards in those two games and has done so despite a hairline fracture in his right shoulder.
We get to see Murray and Shaw go head-to-head this weekend when No. 5 Georgia travels to No. 6 South Carolina, so maybe the pecking order will change.
Either way, it's been a good year for quarterbacks in the SEC, and we'll conduct another poll later in the season when we have more data.
Until then, the fans have spoken.
Shaw sits at the head of the SEC's quarterback class.

In Brief: Yellen stands by Fed's low interest rate policies
Janet Yellen said Thursday that the U.S. economy has regained ground lost to the last recession, but it still needs the Federal Reserve's support because unemployment remains too high at 7.3 percent.
Yellen made those comments in testimony to the Senate Banking Committee, which is considering her nomination to be the next chairman of the Federal Reserve.
Her remarks suggest that she plans to stand by the Fed's extraordinary low interest rate policies begun under current Chairman Ben Bernanke until the economy shows further improvement.
Although Yellen said the economy is performing far below its potential, there were hopeful signs Thursday as the the Dow Jones industrial average and the Standard & Poor's 500 Index set new highs at 15,876.35 and 1,790.61 respectively.
Lockheed Martin cuts 4,000 jobs
Lockheed Martin is cutting 4,000 jobs, about 3.5 percent of its workforce, as the defense contractor continues to look for ways to lower costs amid reduced government spending.
"In the face of government budget cuts and an increasingly complex global security landscape, these actions are necessary for the future of our business," CEO Marilyn Hewson said Thursday in a statement.
Across-the-board spending cuts by the federal government have helped to trim U.S. budget deficits.
Wal-Mart profit up, but store cuts outlook
Wal-Mart Stores cut its annual outlook for the second time in three months as the world's largest retailer finds its low-income shoppers continue to feel squeezed around the globe.
Wal-Mart's reduced outlook comes as the company reported a 2.8 percent increase in its third-quarter profit.

I made this last night and it was GREAT. Definitely a keeper. It is very similar to another recipe I use, but I liked the freshly chopped basil flavor in this one. I added about a tablespoon of finely chopped red pepper for colour, but otherwise kept the recipe the same. It not only tastes wonderful but the presentation is excellent as well and I can't wait to serve it to company.
We enjoyed this chicken dish very much! We made no modifications to the ingredients other than to use seasoned breadcrumbs and baby bella mushrooms. We used a pinot grigio for the white wine. Next time DH said he would just let the sauce reduce longer and possibly omit the flour. We served the dish with broccoli rabe. Thank you for a nice dinner.
Loved this meal! Made as directed except used about 6 oz of goat cheese. I used chicken cutlets from the butcher to omit the step of thinning the breast. I had about six large cutlets. I stuffed them the nite before and left in the fridge to set-up. I did not use the twine or toothpicks & they stayed together fine. I also breaded them about 4 hours before cooking & returned them to fridge so the crumbs would adhere. The mushroom sauce was simple & delicious. I'll be making that often as a sauce with many other dishes. Served with steamed broccoli & rice pilaf. Thank you, Miss Gracie!

UN595/01 Eyewear
With these designer eyeglasses, you are always perfectly dressed. The new Vienna Design underlines that you are a trendsetter. For the current season the renowned label sets the standards with its collection for 2016. Would another colour not be a better match for your favourite outfit? Check also the other styles of UN595in our 2015, and 2016 Vienna Design range.
The unisex Vienna Design model makes no distinction between men and women. Semi-rim frames are decisive for the distinctive lines of the model. A stylish accent that never puts the overall appearance out of balance. The quadratic shape is a good choice, especially for softer facial features. The square glasses give more contour to a round face. The straight outer edges also give the impression that the face is longer. The noble metal frame allows for filigree lines and creates an extraordinary lightness in appearance. In addition, metal eyeglasses are virtually indestructible - strong, flexible and corrosion resistant. Brown is currently a trend colour and also an absolute timeless classic. The colour provides a nice contrast ratio between the skin and the colour of the eyeglass frame. Thus, the transition from eyeglasses to the face is harmonious and unobtrusive.
With the help of our digital dispensing optician, your prescription lenses can be configured according to your own requirements. Anti-reflective and cleaning coatings, antistatic and lotus effect are included as standard for plastic lenses.
The model is in stock. If you order now with the express shipping option, we can even guarantee the time of delivery. If you buy at Edel-Optics you get the best price, because "in the sale" is our standard.

Tips To Start Your Week Off Right
GNM: If USA Bombs a village in pursuit of terrorist, and civilians are killed.. the families of all those people in the middle east will be able to sue. In addition, service members who commit illegal acts while abroad will be used by the victims to sue in usa court. I would vote no on this legislation. The individual actions of terrorists who happen to hold citizenship is certain countries is not a liability for those countries to carry on their balance sheet. Otherwise alot of people will come after the usa, after service members or other citizens have gone to different countries and committed atrocities.

Massage therapy is an excellent addition to an overall treatment plan for sufferers of Post Traumatic Stress disorder. Once a person is able to relax through massage, circulation improves, sleep patterns can return to normal, and a more relaxed patient is more open to other modalities such as talk therapy that can help them resolve the issues at the root of his or her PTSD."
Apathy = I don't care. You are unimportant to me.
Sympathy = I see you and I am feel sorry about your plight. This can feel like one-up/one-down. The person I "feel sympathy for" may feel pitied -- which doesn't feel good. But this is a step up from apathy. I might donate money or express concern from sympathy.
Empathy = I feel what you feel. This is a peer-to-peer experience. When you are sad, I feel the sadness in my body/mind/heart. This has a genuine caring texture to the person who is suffering. But you might feel like you are riding the emotional rollercoaster of emotions. You and I might feel unsafe and distance ourselves if feeling another's pain becomes too much.
Compassion = I feel what you feel and it doesn't overwhelm my circuits. My wisdom circuits remain active and I modulate my emotional state. I see a larger picture. I act skillfully to relieve suffering where I can, or to sit with people who just need accompaniment in their pain (or their joy)."

<snip> The resulting picture was more complex than the five stages would suggest. The researchers found that acceptance was the strongest emotion throughout, while disbelief was very low. The second strongest emotion throughout was yearning, and depression was more evident than anger at every stage. Also, emotions did not replace each other in some form of orderly sequence; the highest point of any of those emotions did follow the correct sequence, but a person in the third stage, for example, would still experience acceptance most strongly, not anger... <snip>

Florida State Position Preview: Defensive End
Position Preview: Defensive End
Key Players lost:?Dan Hicks
Key Returners:?Chris Casher,?Mario Edwards Jr. and DeMarcus Walker
Key Newcomers:?Lorenzo Featherston and Rick Leonard?
Biggest question entering 2014: Who will start opposite?Edwards Jr.?
Mario Edwards Jr. is the unquestioned leader of the defensive end unit for Florida State. The former 5-star recruit had a breakout season in 2013 and he is poised to become a star in 2014. Edwards Jr. will start at right end, but it remains to be seen who will serve as his bookend from the left side. Eddie Goldman started at left defensive end last season. He may return to the spot next season, but he will likely move inside to tackle as Timmy Jernigan's replacement.
Position breakdown:
Returning starter Mario Edwards Jr., who?is a dominant force on the right side, has the potential to become one of the top defensive ends in the country next season. He has the size and strength?to set the edge, which is one of his main duties in Florida State's scheme. He also has the speed and athleticism to disrupt plays as a pass rusher. Last season Goldman stared on the left side. He?was used primarily to set the edge limiting his visible impact, but he was a key member of the defense non-the-less.? If the coaches do decide to move Goldman inside Florida State has talented options to replace him on the left side.
DeMarcus Walker and Chris Casher look to be the favorites, but they are different style players than Goldman. Whereas Edwards Jr. and Goldman are big, physical players who excel at setting the edge, Walker and Casher are both pass rush specialist.?Coaches will have to decide whether they want to utilize Walker and Casher's ability to be disruptive in the backfield or find another player like?Goldman to set the edge.
Options in the Goldman mold include Desmond Hollin and Derrick Mitchell Jr. They?are both currently listed as defensive tackles, but?Florida State has more talented options at the position giving?Hollin and Mitchell Jr. the freedom to move outside.
