The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
Lifetime carbon emissions by source (g/kwh)
Coal: 1,006
Oil: 742
Natural gas: 466
Solar: 17 to 39
Nuclear: 16 to 55
Hydro: 18
Geothermal: 15
Wind: 14
The U.S. Nuclear Breakdown
Mining and milling: 1.7 (g/kwh)
Includes unearthing and transportation of uranium to refining and enrichment facilities
Enrichment: 13
By far the most carbon-intensive part of the fuel cycle, enrichment is needed to concentrate uranium isotope U-235 from its natural level of 0.7 percent to the 4 percent required for reactor fuel. The United States uses a gaseous-diffusion enrichment method that gobbles 40 times more energy than the gas-centrifuge process used in Europe, but a planned switch to centrifuge enrichment will shrink nuclear's domestic carbon footprint significantly. Once enriched, the uranium is shaped into small pellets and inserted into fuel rods.
Construction: 1.5
Building a nuclear power plant takes time, hundreds of thousands of metric tons of steel and concrete, and billions of dollars. It also requires lots of diesel trucks and industrial machinery, which translates into greenhouse gas emissions. Fortunately, a nuclear plant should last 40 years or more, which helps reduce its overall emissions per kilowatt-hour.
Plant operation: 3.9
Fission doesn't produce CO2, but replacement of spent fuel rods, plant heating, and other routine procedures do put a small load on the environment.
Temporary storage: ~1
Nuclear plants must store their own waste on-site or at an approved temporary site until Yucca Mountain is allowed to receive it. Transporting and storing the waste creates its own minor carbon footprint.
Nuclear total: ~21 g/kwh
If the industry switches entirely to centrifuge enrichment, the total will fall to around 12 g/kwh.

Re: Just think
Hm, you might be on to something. Because if we take into account how poorly written your post is, and compare it to how bad Superbot is with revealing information and communicating with us.
We can take your assumption + fluffy details, compile it all together and then just like a light bulb, state something with no proof.
Ya, I think we have Cloud and Crash as well now that I think about it.

Donate to Pine River Area Food Shelf in FoodShare month
Jane is a pretty, young woman who already had more than her share of hardships in life. Jane was dumped at a local gas station by her aunt. She had no belongings, no money and a baby on the way.
Jane felt abandoned. She knew no one in town. Overwhelmed, Jane didn't know what to do.
Since she was involved in the Pine River-Backus Family Center's Home Visiting Program, she called the family center for help.
Krissy Tiede, head of the Home Visiting program, picked Jane up at the gas station. Tiede knew the first thing she had to do was get a place for Jane to stay.
The housing department of Bi-Cap found somewhere for Jane to stay that same day. With help from Hidden Jewels Thrift Store (a PR-B Family Center program) and Thrifty Living, Jane had dishes and a mattress to sleep on.
Jodi Perry, Pine River Food Shelf coordinator, and Kari Shipp, AmeriCorps VISTA (a PR-B Family Center service), provided emergency food while a financial worker started the process to get Jane an EBT (food) card.
After the first day, connections were made with Hidden Jewels Thrift Store, Thrifty Living and the generosity of the PR-B Family Center staff. Also, a CEP worker donated a nice hide-a-bed to set up a home for Jane.
But it didn't stop there. Under the Home Visiting program, Jane is given rides to the grocery store and is learning about healthy choices for her and her baby. Tiede also teaches about purchasing, cooking, nutrition and provides guidance through regular visits.
Jane has accessed mental health services and obtained a library card so she can check out movies and books. Jane said she is appreciative of everything that has been done on her behalf. She didn't know she could find all the agencies and supportive services she needed under one roof — the Pine River-Backus Family Center on Barclay Avenue.
"It's not about giving people a hand out but a hand up," Tiede said.
Jane felt a need to give back. She now volunteers regularly at the Family Center to give back. The Pine River-Backus Family Center oversees all the programs Jane used and many more that serve to meet community needs.
Since the Pine River Area Food Shelf has come under the umbrella of the Family Center, they have been able to expand services, streamline operations and prepare for the future with the addition of part-time paid staff, a VISTA worker and strategic planning.
The number of people with food insecurity in this area is always rising and those needs are being met because of the generosity of community members.
The PR-B Family Center asks for continued support to meet those needs. Residents can do that in two ways this month.
March is designated Minnesota Food Shelf Awareness Month and support is needed with a cash donation, especially this month. A percentage of donations received this month will be matched.
That is why it is essential you send a donation in March for Minnesota Food Shelf Month.
Another way to show support is by attending the first Community "Soups & Sweets" Fundraiser from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, March 23, at The Warehouse. Participants will get to pick a soup prepared from soup donors:
Bites, Hungarian Mushroom; Cottage Café, Reuben; Dark Cravings, Tomato Basil; Jr's #19, Sausage Corn Chowder; and Ole & Lena's Sweet Revenge, Vegetable Beef.
Food shelf volunteers and the Pine River Bakery will prepare sweets. Janice Stephan Weaver donated a quilt to be raffled. Linda Rasinski has sponsored the music.
The numbers of clients visiting the food shelf tells the story of the need. In January, the food shelf served 489 people and gave out 6,672 pounds of groceries.
Send a check of support for this mission to the Pine River Area Food Shelf, PO Box 1, Pine River, or drop off a donation at the Family Center on Barclay Avenue. Or go online at GiveMN.org and search for the Pine River Area Food Shelf page.

Kristen Stewart, Selena Gomez & More: The Top 15 Sexiest Legs And How YOU Can Get Them Too!
The June 5 MTV Movie Awards was packed with celebs wearing short, tight dresses that showed off many sets of long, lean legs!
Reese Witherspoon, Cameron Diaz & more top our list of sexiest summer legs. Celebrity trainer and fitness expert Joe Dowdell tells YOU how to get your legs in mini skirt-wearing shape!
As the weather heats up, clothing shrink down! Be prepared with these tips and tricks from Joe!
What are some of fast, yet effective, leg workouts?
Here are two leg circuit workouts to try — one for beginners and one for the more advanced.
Lateral split squats, 10-12 reps on the right side and 10-12 on the left
Put your hands over your head and do 15-20 prisoner squats
Finish off with 15-20 double leg hip bridges.
Rest after that circuit for about a minute and then repeat the circuit 2-3 more times.
Reverse lunge, 10-12 reps on the left and then right legs
Lateral lunge, 10-12 reps on the left and then right legs
Squat jump stick, 15-20. Start at standing, squat down, explode up as if jumping up to grab something and the key is to try to land softly.
Get on your back, but instead of a double leg hip bridge, you could do a single leg hip bridge.
Tip: Progress by holding dumbbells or a medicine ball through the circuit for some resistance.
Are there any great water exercises for legs, as people may have access to a pool or beach?
"I like to use the pool a lot for recovery workouts. I find the breast stoke to be a really good leg-kicking movement. Get a kickboard and hold onto the kickboard so all of the work is being done with the legs." Joe suggests holding the kickboard with your arms outstretched in front of you.
In the summer, people are pouring outside for their workouts. What outdoor activities specifically are great for toning up the legs?
Surfing and Running stairs or hill running
What area of the legs do you find women have the hardest time with? Why do you think that is?
"There's a lot of physiology that goes into this. Hormones. A lot of times women who tend to store more body fat in their hips and thighs tend to be estrogen dominant, or they are not detoxifying their estrogen well. There's no such thing, in essence, as spot reduction. [Women] diet really well and exercise really hard and they have this estrogen dominance issue that they don't realize that they have and they end up with this smaller version of the body that they already have. Imagine a pear shrinking down to a smaller pear. In my book, Ultimate You, we go over this and how you can fix that [estrogen dominance] and numerous other hormonal issues.
Is there any common mistake you see people making when trying to tone up their legs?
"Women tend to do too little strength training and they tend to be very afraid of challenging themselves with resistance for fear of getting too big, They spend too much time doing low to moderate intensity aerobic activities. Women tend to be very good at these aerobic type activities so they gravitate towards them. Basically take yourself outside of your comfort zone and challenge yourself more. There's this preponderance of misinformation targeted at women more than men. There's a lot of people out there praying into women's fears, especially with regard towards things like lifting weights."
So HollywoodLifers, are you ready to get your legs in shape for summer?

Upset-heavy Week 8 leaves SEC looking vulnerable; more Overtime
While the SEC standings and Top 25 polls went up in flames around him on Saturday, Auburn coach Gus Malzahn barely noticed what was happening outside of his own team's contribution.
"I'm so wrapped up in what we were doing," Malzahn said. "I was just so happy to get a big win on the road."
His team's big road win -- a 45-41 victory over then seventh-ranked Texas A&M -- was one of five games over the weekend in which a top-10 team in the AP Poll lost, the most in six years. Remarkably, Auburn's win was also one of five SEC games in which the Vegas favorite lost, with Missouri blasting Florida 36-17, Vanderbilt topping Georgia 31-27, Tennessee knocking off South Carolina 23-21 and Ole Miss stunning LSU 27-24.
Amid the carnage, SEC communications director Chuck Dunlap tweeted: "From all the Top 25 teams to the results from today, 1-14 strength and depth of the SEC on full display today." That's one way of looking at it. The view from outside Birmingham, however, is that a perfect storm of youth, injuries and uncharacteristically bad defenses has left the conference that's won the past seven BCS championships in an increasingly precarious state in this year's title race.
ELLIS: Ole Miss holds off late surge to topple LSU; late Snap Judgments
Last year, you may recall, the SEC held a staggering six of the top-10 spots in the final BCS standings. The league was top-heavy, but those teams were all pretty darn good, as subsequent bowl results would mostly bear out.
However, when the first BCS rankings of the season were unveiled on Sunday night, league juggernaut Alabama (7-0) held its familiar spot at No. 1, Missouri (7-0) checked in at No. 5 and ... that's it. Auburn (6-1), No. 11 in the BCS, is the only other SEC team with fewer than two conference losses. Everybody else may already be playing for a spot in the Outback Bowl.
It may be that the top-ranked Crimson Tide -- which stomped Arkansas 52-0 on Saturday and have allowed just 16 combined points in their past five games -- are all the league needs to keep its vaunted championship streak intact. But remember, Alabama has lost a game in November in each of the past two seasons (to LSU in 2011 and Texas A&M in '12) before climbing back into the top two. 'Bama might not want to take that chance this year, because it may not be able to bounce back from what could be considered a bad loss.
You know it's a rebuilding year for much of the conference (which had a record 63 players selected in the 2013 NFL draft) when two of its most successful teams to date were barely competitive just a year earlier.
Auburn, 0-8 in the league and 3-9 overall in Gene Chizik's final season on the Plains, could barely move the ball in 2012. It's not entirely surprising that Malzahn, the renowned offensive coordinator for Chizik's 2010 national title team, has immediately injected life into the Tigers, who are averaging more than 300 yards per game.
On Saturday, however, Auburn took down Johnny Football. The Tigers, whose sole loss this fall at LSU, 35-21, on Sept. 21, have come a long way in a short time.
"We've had some guys really step up and play their best football this year," said Malzahn. "I'm just proud of our guys. The things this group has overcome, I couldn't be happier for them."
RICKMAN: Auburn outlasts Texas A&M in shootout; midday Snap Judgments
Good for Auburn. But it's hard to say how much it has closed the gap on the rest of the SEC, or how much the rest of the SEC has regressed.
Take Missouri, for example. A year after going 2-6 in its debut SEC campaign and generally being laughed off as a Big 12 impostor, coach Gary Pinkel's undefeated team is now the toast of the league. In consecutive weeks, Mizzou has defeated preseason top-10 foes Georgia (4-3) and Florida (4-3), the latter a 36-17 rout in which the Tigers outgained the Gators by a staggering 500-151 margin. Missouri dominated Florida with redshirt freshman quarterback Maty Mauk filling in for injured starter James Franklin.
"I thought we were going to be a good football team," Pinkel said afterward. "I don't know why nobody else thought we were going to have a good football team."
Good for Mizzou, too, which already holds a two-game lead in the SEC East loss column before welcoming South Carolina (5-2) this week. But the Tigers beat up on a pair of teams (Georgia and Florida) decimated by injuries. Are they really a top-five team, as the latest polls suggest? Or are they merely a top-three team in a down conference?
The Pac-12 is the nation's strongest league this season. Case in point, Oregon annihilated Tennessee 59-14 on Sept. 14. Since then, the Vols have taken Georgia to overtime and defeated the Gamecocks. Certainly a team can get better as the year progresses, and the Vols' most recent games came at home, not in Autzen Stadium. But the score discrepancies still don't reflect well on the SEC. Nor does the fact that Washington State, which has lost three Pac-12 games by scores of 55-17 (Stanford), 52-24 (Oregon State) and 62-38 (Oregon), played Auburn to the wire on the Tigers' home field in Week 1. Now, that same Auburn team is No. 11 in the country, according to AP voters.
Again, it only takes one team to maintain the SEC's national title stranglehold. Alabama appears well equipped to be that team. But these next seven weeks may take on an unusual quality. Big games between current top-10 squads figure to take place in the Pac-12 (Oregon-Stanford on Nov. 7), ACC (Miami-Florida State on Nov. 2) and Big 12 (Baylor-Texas Tech on Nov. 7). There currently aren't any in the offing in the SEC.
Jameis Winston, Florida State roll Clemson in Death Valley
Normally, when a network is afforded access to a team's pregame locker room for its broadcast, viewers see a coach standing in front of his players delivering some last-minute words of encouragement. The players are quiet. The atmosphere is tense.
On Saturday night, however, ABC broadcast a rare, eye-opening moment. With no coach in sight, a relaxed and radiant Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston had his teammates' full attention. "We ain't leavin' without a victory!" Winston shouted. "Hey, my brothers. Put a smile on your face." His teammates then joined him in proclaiming that at Florida State "we do it big!"
At that moment, perhaps we should have seen the Seminoles' 51-14 romp of Clemson coming. If not then, certainly after the first sequence of the game, when cornerback Lamarcus Joyner forced a fumble on the Tigers' first offensive play, and Winston connected with a leaping Kelvin Benjamin for a 22-yard touchdown shortly thereafter. Any pregame concerns about the redshirt freshman's ability to handle the raucous atmosphere at Death Valley were instantly rendered moot. By night's end, Winston had thrown for 444 yards and the 'Noles had scored the most points of any Clemson opponent in Memorial Stadium history.
As Andy Staples wrote, it was a display of dominance much like the ones Bobby Bowden's great teams routinely delivered during the late 1980s and 1990s. Yet the truth is Florida State has been back among the most talented teams in the country for a couple of years now. It had 11 players from its 2012 roster taken in last spring's NFL draft. What it was missing was that Bowden-era swagger. Winston, despite being two to three years younger than most of the 'Noles' starters, is conjuring it.
"You look at last year you have a bunch of talent, but you have talent with no belief," Joyner said after the game. "We lacked leadership. No one embraced leadership.
"... In my four years here this was the first brotherhood I've been a part of to embrace that challenge, because of the tradition and history we have here."
The Seminoles are loaded at nearly every position. The receivers, once a sore spot, made one big catch after another on Saturday night. Of course, it helps to have a rocket-armed quarterback hitting them between the numbers. The offensive line and running backs do a tremendous job picking up blitzes, which Winston reads perfectly. And the defense looks like a vintage Florida State defense, swarming and creating turnovers.
On Sunday, the 'Noles returned to the perch they once occupied for 14 consecutive years (1987-2000): a top-four ranking in the AP Poll. In two weeks, they'll face another top-10 foe, Miami, which is also working to return to the sustained level of success it enjoyed in an earlier era.
Of note, the two quarterbacks who have led Florida State to national titles, Charlie Ward (1993) and Chris Weinke (1999), both won the Heisman. (Weinke won the award the next season, in 2000.) Winston and his team are now prime contenders for both trophies.
ELLIS: Florida State comes in ahead of Oregon in initial 2013 BCS standings
Reinvented Jeff Godfrey helping to spark UCF's success
UCF returned to campus following last Friday's BCS-altering 38-35 upset of Louisville around 3:45 a.m. As described and captured in video by the Orlando Sentinel, there were about 200 fans and members of the marching band waiting to greet the buses when they arrived.
"I didn't think I'd ever see that when I got here," said senior receiver Jeff Godfrey, who caught the game-winning two-yard touchdown pass from Blake Bortles in the back of the end zone with 23 seconds remaining. The catch not only dashed Louisville's hopes of a possible national title game appearance, but put the Knights (5-1, 2-0 American) -- who moved to the former Big East from Conference USA this season -- in the driver's seat for their new league's automatic BCS bowl berth.
UCF, which debuted at No. 23 in Sunday's BCS standings, previously won at Penn State on Sept. 14 and lost by three points to South Carolina on Sept. 28. If it were to reach the Sugar or Fiesta Bowl, it would mark more than the culmination of a long journey for 10th-year coach George O'Leary's program; it would serve as a fitting cap to a Godfrey's career as well.
RICKMAN: UCF shocks Louisville to take control of the American
As a freshman in 2010, Godfrey, then a quarterback, took over the Knights' starting job early in the season and led his team to an 11-win campaign, a Conference USA title and a Liberty Bowl victory over Georgia. Heading into 2011, UCF coaches couldn't rave enough about their dual-threat quarterback. O'Leary likened the Miami native to his former Georgia Tech star and Heisman runner-up Joe Hamilton.
But as the Knights struggled through a subsequent 5-7 season, Godfrey began splitting time with Bortles, who coaches clearly viewed as the team's quarterback of the future. Godfrey's father, Jeff Godfrey Sr., blasted O'Leary in the local media, and that December his son announced his intention to transfer. Godfrey left the program for a semester.
But at the advice of his mother and grandmother, among others, Godfrey ultimately returned, even agreeing to transition from quarterback to receiver. It appears all parties involved made the correct decision. Bortles, the nation's 16th-rated passer, has led UCF to a 15-5 record since last season. Godfrey now has 52 career catches -- his most recent one easily the biggest play in program history.
"Every day, I count my blessings for all those people that talked me into coming back. I think it was a great decision," Godfrey said on Sunday. "It's wonderful to have an impact as a receiver. I love the position. Getting involved, blocking downfield, catching the ball -- scoring game-winning touchdowns -- it feels great."
Poll watching
My reaction to the latest AP and Coaches' polls:
Overrated: Ohio State (AP and Coaches: 4)
The Buckeyes have basically held serve since the start of the season. But I'd pick several lower-ranked teams to beat the Buckeyes on a neutral field, including Baylor, Stanford, LSU and Texas A&M. Basically, Ohio State could be in trouble against any team that can throw downfield.
Underrated: Oregon State (AP and Coaches: NR)
I get it, the Beavers' Week 1 loss to FCS Eastern Washington was inexcusable. But quarterback Sean Mannion and receiver Brandin Cooks are simply shredding opposing defenses. The ranked teams I'd pick Oregon State (6-1) to beat include Oklahoma State, Michigan and Nebraska.
Current BCS forecast
Each week, I'll update my projected BCS lineup (as necessary) based on the latest week's games. Here's my current edition:
Title game: Alabama vs. Oregon
Rose: Ohio State vs. Stanford
Fiesta: Baylor vs. Fresno State
Sugar: Missouri vs. UCF
Orange: Florida State vs. Wisconsin
It's the final year of the BCS, and with matchups like these ... good riddance.
I had previously resisted including Fresno State in my projections, but two things changed in Week 8. For one, the week's rash of upsets helped the Bulldogs debut at No. 17 in the initial 2013 BCS standings. And UCF's victory over Louisville raises the possibility that, much like Northern Illinois last season, Fresno may only need to finish in the top 16, not the top 12, to clinch an automatic berth if it's ranked higher than an AQ-conference (AAC) champ. As for whether Derek Carr and company, currently 6-0, actually make it to 12-0, another major development emerged on Saturday. Boise State quarterback Joe Southwick broke his ankle in a 34-17 win over Nevada. Fresno is looking at a possible rematch with the Broncos in the Mountain West title game.
Meanwhile, even though I slotted Missouri in the Sugar Bowl's SEC spot, don't put it past that game to select LSU instead, even if Les Miles' team finishes with three losses. The Tigers would just need to finish in the top 14. And I remain convinced that Wisconsin will win out. The Badgers (5-2) rolled Illinois 56-32 on Saturday, and the schedule doesn't get much more difficult the rest of the way.
Spreading the field
• If you went to sleep before 1:30 a.m. ET on Sunday morning, you missed history. In the waning moments of a 62-38 loss at Oregon, Washington State quarterback Connor Halliday threw his 84th pass to break Drew Brees' 15-year-old FBS record for attempts in a single game. Halliday finished 58-of-89 for 557 yards with four interceptions and four touchdowns, two of which came in the final four minutes of the fourth quarter. That did not please Ducks defensive coordinator Nick Aliotti, who called Cougars coach Mike Leach "low class" and threw out a couple of dirty words. Aliotti issued an apology Sunday evening.
Perhaps when Leach joined the conference last year, Pac-12 coaches should have consulted with their Big 12 brethren. They would confirm that Leach has been throwing until the end of blowouts, win or lose, with his starting quarterback for 13 years.
• It's already as if Stanford never lost at Utah last week. The Cardinal (6-1, 4-1 Pac-12) bounced back nicely with a 24-10 win over previously unbeaten UCLA (5-1, 2-1), a game in which their defense absolutely suffocated Bruins quarterback Brett Hundley. After the Utah loss, Stanford dropped from No. 5 to No. 13 in the polls. Following Saturday's slew of upsets, however, the Cardinal moved back to No. 8 in both and, more importantly, checked in at No. 6 in the first BCS standings.
• Ohio State fans should be more worried about their team's 79th-ranked passing defense than potential BCS scenarios. Star cornerback Bradley Roby's targeting ejection certainly didn't help matters, but Iowa quarterback Jake Rudock threw for three touchdowns (one for 85 yards to Jake Duzey) on Saturday. The Hawkeyes (4-3, 1-2) were tied with the Buckeyes (7-0, 3-0) heading into the fourth quarter before running back Carlos Hyde (24 carries, 149 yards, two touchdowns) lifted his team to a 34-24 win.
• Notre Dame fans may have a new appreciation for oft-maligned quarterback Tommy Rees. After the senior, who had thrown for two first-half touchdowns, went out with a neck strain early in the third quarter of Saturday's matchup with USC, the Irish (5-2) gained a mere 27 yards the rest of the game. Their defense helped preserve a 14-10 victory, Notre Dame's first home win over the Trojans (4-3, 1-2 Pac-12) since 2001. Coach Brian Kelly said on Sunday that Rees is day-to-day.
RICKMAN: Between the Hashes: Rounding up the best, worst and weirdest of Week 8
• Another week, another Texas Tech (7-0, 4-0 Big 12) victory under first-year head coach and quarterback whisperer Kliff Kingsbury. His latest protégé, freshman Davis Webb, went 36-of-50 for 462 yards with two touchdowns and no picks in his first career road start, a 37-27 win at West Virginia (3-4, 1-3). Webb, who became the starter last week, helped the Red Raiders rally from a 27-16 deficit. "When we've had to have big drives, Davis has made them," said Kingsbury. "I'm really proud of how he handled himself in the fourth quarter."
• Despite Northern Illinois' Top 25 ranking, we hadn't heard much this season about quarterback Jordan Lynch, who finished seventh in Heisman voting in 2012. Then Lynch went out and broke the FBS record for rushing yards in a single game by a quarterback. Lynch ran for a staggering 316 yards on 32 carries in the Huskies' 38-17 victory over Central Michigan. "The holes were so wide open," he said. "It was nothing I did." The previous record-holder was another NIU quarterback, Stacey Robinson (308 yards in 1990).
• Records fell all over the country on Saturday. Michigan wideout Jeremy Gallon broke the Big Ten mark for receiving yards in a game with his 14-catch, 369-yard, two-touchdown performance in a 63-47 win over Indiana. Gallon's effort ranked second in FBS history behind only Louisiana Tech's Troy Edwards' 405 receiving yards against Nebraska in 1998. Michigan (751 total yards) and quarterback Devin Gardner (584 total yards) broke school records for total offense in a wild victory for the Wolverines (6-1, 2-1).
• BYU (5-2) tied an FBS record by running 115 plays in its 47-46 win over Houston (5-1, 2-0 AAC). Quarterback Taysom Hill was responsible for 78 of them. Known primarily as a runner following his 259-yard rushing performance against Texas in Week 2, Hill threw for a career-high 417 yards with four touchdowns and three picks on 44 attempts. He also carried 34 times for 128 yards.
• Just two weeks ago, Northwestern and Washington suffered close losses to top-10 foes Ohio State and Stanford, respectively. Now that seems so long ago. Playing without stars Kain Colter and Venric Mark, the Wildcats (4-3, 0-3 Big Ten) dropped their third straight, 20-17 at home to Minnesota (5-2, 1-2). Meanwhile, Arizona State (5-2, 3-1 Pac-12) pummeled the Huskies 53-24, holding tailback Bishop Sankey to just 22 rushing yards. "That," said Washington coach Steve Sarkisian, "was embarrassing."
• North Carolina (1-5, 0-3 ACC) has been one of the most disappointing teams in the country, but last Thursday's near-upset of Miami at least proved a showcase for standout Tar Heels tight end Eric Ebron. A projected first- or second-round NFL draft pick, Ebron caught eight passes for 199 yards, including a 71-yard touchdown in the first quarter. North Carolina led 23-20 late before running back Dallas Crawford (33 carries, 137 yards, two touchdowns) and the 'Canes (6-0, 2-0) mounted a game-winning 90-yard scoring drive to win 27-23.
• Baylor (6-0, 3-0 Big 12) got back to doing Baylor-esque things in Saturday's 71-7 rout of Iowa State (1-5, 0-3), as coach Art Briles' team racked up 714 yards of total offense. It marked the fifth time in six games that the Bears, who have now won 10 straight dating to last November's upset of Kansas State, have scored at least 69 points. Mind you, all five of those games came at home. Baylor hits the road for the second time in the 2013 season this weekend. However, the game is at ... Kansas (2-4, 0-3). Is this the week the Bears crack 80 points?
• Welcome to the ACC, Syracuse. Georgia Tech (4-3, 3-2 ACC) pounded the Orange 56-0 on Saturday. Newcomers don't just walk in and win right away in the ACC the way they do in, say, the SEC.
• Temple (1-6, 0-3 AAC) got in the win column for the first time in 2013 with a 33-14 rout of Army (3-5). The result leaves Connecticut (0-6) as the lone winless AQ-conference team.
• Not only is Miami (Ohio) still in the oh-fer column following a 24-17 loss to Akron (2-6), but the RedHawks (0-7) have scored just 71 points on the season. That's the number of points Baylor scored this weekend.
• Finally, Navy (3-3) lost a 45-44 heartbreaker at Toledo (4-3) when its kicker, Nick Sloan, missed an extra point following the Midshipmen's touchdown in double overtime.
Breaking down the troubling situation at Grambling State
The team's games were rarely televised, and yet to fans of a certain age, the image of Eddie Robinson prowling Grambling State's sidelines -- as he did from 1941-1997 -- is unforgettable. In 1985, he graced the cover of Sports Illustrated upon breaking Bear Bryant's all-time coaching wins record. He finished his career an astounding 408-165-15. He passed away in 2007 at the age of 88.
What's happening to Robinson's former program right now couldn't be farther from those glory days. In fact, it's downright disgusting. It's also a cautionary tale about the financial strain of competing in college athletics for the hundreds of universities without 100,000-seat stadiums and billion-dollar TV networks.
Last week, Grambling's players revolted against alleged mistreatment by the school, skipping two days of practices and refusing to travel to Saturday's game at Jackson State. That forced the 0-7 team to forfeit and Jackson State to hold an intrasquad scrimmage on homecoming. As detailed by SI's George Dohrmann and in a letter from the players to the administration obtained by ESPN, the players' grievances include: the early-season dismissal of coach Doug Williams; 14- and 17-hour bus rides to recent away games; mold, mildew and other unsafe conditions in the football facility, including poorly cleaned uniforms that "contribute to the multiple cases [of] staph infection"; players having to pay for Gatorade and Muscle Milk out of their own pockets and more.
"We had to pay for those expensive items ourselves," according to the letter. "We were also forced to get water from hoses underneath the stadium in 90-degree plus weather."
The Grambling fiasco appears to be a case of extreme financial neglect, starting at the highest levels of the state. Most non-BCS athletic departments depend on university subsidies to operate. But according to Dohrmann, state funding to the school has dipped from $31.6 million to $13.8 million over the last six years. The ripple effect is inevitably being felt in athletics, which has been unsuccessful in passing a student fee and receives very little in alumni donations.
"We are functioning now in a financial emergency," school president Dr. Frank Pogue told SI.
Even still, there's clearly been widespread mismanagement. The school is on its third athletic director in four years and, now, its third football coach this season. While cuts had to be made throughout the athletic department, a football team taking a 17-hour bus ride is insane. And buy the kids some Gatorade for Pete's sake.
Historically black colleges like Grambling are finding it increasingly difficult to compete in Division I athletics, with Grambling among several to receive NCAA sanctions in recent years for poor APR scores. Still, it's not inconceivable that something similar could occur at another school. Cuts in states' higher education funding have not been limited to Louisiana, but costs keep increasing. And contrary to popular narrative, the vast majority of athletic departments are not rolling in money.
Kodi Whitfield: Catch of the year
You've seen a bunch of one-handed catches this year ... but none quite like this one from Stanford's receiver.
Aaron Brown: Unfortunate touchback of the year
You've seen a lot of players fumble into the end zone ... but not after a 90-yard interception return.
Looking ahead
Mini-previews for three of Week 9's big games:
• Texas Tech at Oklahoma, Saturday (3:30 p.m. ET): Kingsbury found plenty of success as the Red Raiders' quarterback, but not against Oklahoma, which beat his team 60-15 in Norman in November 2002. Kingsbury was no longer on Texas A&M's staff to exact revenge on the Sooners in last year's Cotton Bowl. He finally gets a shot this week.
• UCLA at Oregon, Saturday (7 p.m. ET): UCLA needs to shore up its young, injury-riddled offensive line in a hurry or else the Ducks' defense may replicate what Stanford's unit did on Saturday. More intriguing, however, will be watching Bruins star linebacker Anthony Barr match wits with Oregon quarterback Marcus Mariota and his playmakers.
• South Carolina at Missouri, Saturday (7 p.m. ET): If Missouri wins this one, its fans might as well book their flights to Atlanta. The Tigers' defense likely faces its toughest challenge of the year in slowing Gamecocks running back Mike Davis, but Mizzou's offense is playing pretty well, too. Jadeveon Clowney will need some help.

We purchased a queen size bed frame for my daughter last month from American Freight Outlet. We purchased it because of the great price and the good service. When I assembled it I noticed it was not the one that we ordered. I specifiacally told the salesperson that I wanted one with a center support. He took me in the back and lifted a matress from a display and said this is the one you will get.
I called them an dexplained the problem. I was told to pack it up and bring it in and they would swap it for the one I ordered. I took it back and they said that the one i wanted was $40.00 more. I explained the whole situation to them and they more or less looked at me like I was lying. There were three sales reps there and they kept telling me that it was a mistake and they would "meet me halfway" on the upgraded price. I told them I wanted what I ordered and they became very rude and unprofessional. I would neer go back there again!

New windscreen. Wiper rain sensor fault
Had a new windscreen installed in Kalgoorlie, No O'Brien's here.
Now every time I start my car the wipers do 1 wipe. Now the other day we had a little rain it would not wipe until the screen was so wet I could not see out, let it go after the first wipe and then had to go to manual wipe.
Antone herd of this?
Called jeep and asked if there was a calibration to be done. None that they are aware of.
I can't remember which forum, but I remember reading a thread where some one in Aus had their windscreen replaced with an aftermarket one and had no end of trouble with the auto wipers not working, playing up.
He ended up having to get a genuine windscreen to solve the problem
Re: New windscreen. Wiper rain sensor fault
May pay to unclip the clear plastic covers just under the mirror to make sure that nothing is loose and that everything is seated properly in there.
Having said that, I am not really sure how they work. Is it just a sensor through the windscreen or is the windscreen "wired" somehow?
I think for others getting a new windscreen, it maybe best to insist on an OEM version rather than aftermarket, even if you have to wait. (Some may not be able to).
Unfortunately you may have been the test that will help others.
Re: New windscreen. Wiper rain sensor fault
I was under the impression that the rain sensor was located on the inside of the screen, incorporated into the mirror. It works by sensing distortion on the screen surface. If the wipers are playing up, I would firstly suspect the mirror fitting. There must be something on Google about it.
I thought I read somewhere that someone had a similar problem and the lens on the back of the mirror was just dirty. Try giving it a wipe and see if anything changes.
Re: New windscreen. Wiper rain sensor fault
the sensor is part of the windscreen.
They showed me the old one
Re: New windscreen. Wiper rain sensor fault
Funny enough, I had my windscreen replaced with an OEM one by O'Brians yesterday. I got a crack just around the mirror, but no impact damage. Jeep denied a warranty claim, so I got it done FoC through insurance.
They replaced it fine, but I am also getting the one wipe special when I start the car. Screen is clean, so I do not know what is causing it.
If you find out Laurie, let me know as well.
Re: New windscreen. Wiper rain sensor fault
BMW E38 Rain Sensitive Wiper Sensor Repair
might give you some insight to the sensors. Note it is not from a Jeep
Re: New windscreen. Wiper rain sensor fault
Can you check the markings.
Is it definitely a Mopar?
Re: New windscreen. Wiper rain sensor fault

Cleaned under the sensor did not fix anything.
I am sure there must be a calibration for it.
Attachment 19942
Re: New windscreen. Wiper rain sensor fault
I can confirm that mine is a MOPAR branded screen. I did specifically ask for OEM.
O'Brians wanted to fit their brand, but I had to get approval for the OEM one.
I still get the 1 wipe every time the car starts and the screen looks clean around the rain sensor.
Re: New windscreen. Wiper rain sensor fault
I am not sure if the rain sensor takes time to re-calibrated, but my wipers have not faulted for the past 2 days. Weird....

New NASA Crew Transportation System to Cost $18 Billion Through 2017
Senators Bill Nelson (D-FL) and Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-TX) headlined a hastily arranged press event in the Senate this morning announcing the long awaited decision on the design of the Space Launch System (SLS). NASA Administrator Charlie Bolden and other Members of Congress were also there and NASA will hold a more detailed media teleconference at noon today with NASA Associate Administrator for Human Exploration and Operations Bill Gerstenmaier. The Senate Appropriations Committee is marking up the bil that includes NASA beginning this afternoon, making the SLS announcement particularly timely.
At the Senate event, Senator Nelson stated that the cost of the SLS will be $10 billion through 2017. The main purpose of the SLS is to launch astronauts to destinations beyond low Earth orbit in a spacecraft called the Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV). Nelson said the MPCV cost through 2017 would be $6 billion, and the cost of associated ground facilities is $2 billion in that time frame, a total of $18 billion. That is essentially $3 billion per year for the next five years.

You can consider this post to be a cautionary tale, told in advance of things getting really, truly ugly. I hope you'll read it carefully, take it seriously, and take it as the motivational tool it is intended to be.
When I was a teenager I had a small flock of chickens. After a year or so I gave them up and turned the birds over to my brother, who expanded the flock considerably. Eventually he grew quite a little business out of the endeavor. By the time he graduated high school he had something like 300 white leghorns out in the barn.
It would seem simple enough to raise chickens. There's not much to it, really. Throw a little feed in the yard, provide clean water, and collect the eggs on a daily basis. Look at that — one, two, three and you're a farmer. Then again, there's the cannibalism to think about. Oh yes, I said cannibalism.

Stringer to Employers: Time to Get Flexible
New York City Comptroller Scott Stringer is urging the passage of "Right to Request" legislation, introduced at the federal and state levels, that would provide a formal process for employees to discuss flexible scheduling with managers without fear of retaliation.
His office released a report Monday recommending that businesses allow employees — especially parents and caregivers with elderly family members — flexible work schedules.
"I know in my own family situation, I'm married to someone who is a professional, has a very serious career, and is co-parenting two little boys. And we both want to stay in the workforce," said Stringer.
Similar laws are enacted in Vermont and San Francisco.
Business leaders who endorsed Stringer's report said flexible work schedules improve employee retention and productivity.

Edgewater and Leonia boards look ahead at joint meeting
EDGEWATER — An annual joint meeting between the Edgewater and Leonia school districts on Jan. 31 offered residents a look at the year ahead, introducing parents to new, state-mandated curriculum and teacher evaluation standards.
The common core state standards, which Edgewater Superintendent Lorraine Cella said are fewer in number but more rigorous than previous standards, provide educators with a common understanding of the skills and knowledge students are expected to learn.
The New Jersey State Board of Education adopted the new rubrics and benchmarks in 2010.
Students in a seventh grade English Language arts class, for example, no longer get by on work that demonstrates comprehension of informational material. Now they must track the central ideas in a text, analyze their development and provide an objective summary of what they read.
Cella said the changes are causing both districts to reevaluate the usefulness of their current textbooks and turn to other resources, including the Internet, instead.
The common standards will also require common assessments but officials said they're not yet sure what shape and form those will take.
"[The state is] making changes so rapidly that it's hard for us to keep up," said Cella. "It's sort of like building a plane while it's flying."
One certain thing is that the new Partnership for Assessment of Readiness of College and Careers (PARCC) standardized examination for grades three through 11 will take effect during the 2014-2015 school year.
Ideally, it would test students four times during the school year, said Cella, but that number has yet to confirmed.
Officials are currently focusing their efforts on an overhauled teacher evaluation system and familiarizing their staff with it.
"A lot of good heads are sitting together, talking, looking and putting together rubrics for this system," said Megargee.
Edgewater began piloting one of the models of the new system last fall. It allows administrators do away with narrative-like critiques of lessons in favor of a benchmark approach that measures teacher performance across seven different categories, ranking each from "highly effective" to "ineffective."
"These are probably the most effective ways that a teacher can get better at their craft," said Cella.
Cella and Megargee vowed to set a "compelling vision" for the future and to develop a culture of high expectations for not only teachers but students as well.
"We're working side by side to make sure that when our [Eleanor Van Gelder] students get to Leonia they are prepared," said Cella.

Botox Treatment - San Francisco, CA
I was very pleased with the Botox filler performed by Dr. Evan Ransom in San Francisco. It certainly improved the look of my eyes and made my "crow's feet" so much less visible. I also appreciate the warm caring attitude of his patient coordinator Dee Hoobyar. Every office should be so lucky to have such a wonderful team taking care of their patients. READ MORE

We can use the -level()- option for that. The trick is to find the
level that corresponds with 1 standard error. This is
normal(1)-normal(-1). Since the -level()- option works in percentages,
we need to multiply that by 100, and since it only takes two decimal
places after the decimal point, we need to use the -round()- option.

With at least three candidates voicing interest in challenging an incumbent justice, another high-profile Wisconsin Supreme Court election could draw record spending by outside groups.
That forecast came in a WUWM/Milwaukee Public Radio report. It relied in part on an interview with Mike McCabe of the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign, who said Act 10 may be on the court's docket again in 2013, and it will be among hot-button issues fueling a contentious race. Act 10 is Wisconsin's law that restricts collective bargaining for many public employees.
"The stakes are very high, voter ID laws, all kinds of issues could hang in the balance and the makeup of the court could make a significant difference in how the court views issues like that," McCabe said. His organization is a JAS partner group.
The election could shift the philosophical balance of the court from it's current 4-3 conservative majority, and out-of-state groups are expected to join the battle again. In 2011, a Supreme Court race played out against a backdrop of Republican Gov. Scott Walker's Act 10 initiative. McCabe said spending climbed to nearly $6 million.
Justice Patience Roggensack has announced her candidacy for re-election. An attorney turned online liberal video satirist, Vince Megna, has announced his candidacy, and Dane County Circuit Judge Maryann Sumi and Marquette University law school professor Ed Fallone have voiced interest.
A headline for an Associated Press article about the contest declared, "GET SET FOR A BRAWL. Spring election may alter state court majority."
In a statement, Megna said he doesn't view Justice Roggensack as the candidate to beat, but rather "David Koch and the other out-of-state big money forces that will flood Wisconsin."
A Madison Capital Times article was headlined, "Attorney Vince Megna, an avowed anti-Walker Democrat, wants a seat on the high court."

Re: Granzella Fossil Collection and Guide[ Edited ]
Hi! I'm new to these forums, but I used to regularly sneak peek at 'em for some time. I'm here to thank the excellent work done by Mermaid-KT. Thanks to her awesome walkthru, I have been finally able to complete my fossil collection today with relatively little spending! After months of digging, I'm totally done! THANK YOU, MERMAID-KT! With people like you Home will live on for a long time!
PS: One thing that I've noticed is when you are faithful to just one platform in the Fossil Digging Game, it seems missing fossils will appear more often. I really don't know whether it's only my impression or not.
Re: Granzella Fossil Collection and Guide
Congratulation as well for completing your Museum, although like many of us, I wouldn't be surprised if you start to miss that little routine of your daily digs. I know I do, and even now I still go back every so often to do a few more digs, if only to help get my Tropical Points up!
But for now, enjoy your Museum, you earnt it
Oh, and welcome to the Forums, I hope you stay around to post some more
Re: Granzella Fossil Collection and Guide
What about these new fossils that are showing up that have no relation to any of the ones described on page 1? I still can't get the right front leg of the T-Rex byt the secret site is all I have left.
Pinball totally rules!
Re: Granzella Fossil Collection and Guide
I know that I have pictures in the guide to show every fossil you can find but I'm certainly not aware, or heard of, any new fossils arriving.
I'll do a check when I next sign I'm to see if I still have the same completed message, but please explain in a bit more detail what it is you have found. Thankyou,

Kemet - I checked my fossil list. The T-Rex only has two legs, left hind leg and right hind leg. I believe you are missing the the following:
5. Right Hind Leg (4) (XL)
There is no right front leg for T-Rex.
Also, I understand your frustration ... the ONLY fossil I'm still missing is the Left Wing of the Pteranodon in the paid site. I have been at this fossil game since its inclusion last year. That is the ONLY reward I'm missing - I'd like to be done with this place.
Re: Granzella Fossil Collection and Guide
Keep at it guys, you will get all the fossils eventually. In fact, I just found my last one yesterday. Now for your amusement, I present the following:
"Welcome friend, to my Fossil Museum."
"Excavation King you say? No, I am merely a purveyor of curiosities."
"Ah, good eye! Yes, these are from Irem Square and Seaside of Memories. The museum seemed an appropriate place to put then, wouldn't you say?"
"This little fellow? Just a companion I picked up during my travels."
"Lockwood Publishing? Cloning? I wouldn't know of such things. I can assure you that if those activities were going on, they wouldn't be getting their fossils from here. We have an exclusive deal to provide our duplicate fossils to Granzella."
(*looks nervously at half full warehouse of fossils in unmarked boxes)
"In any case, if I were involved with such activities, I certainly wouldn't make the same mistake those Jurassic Park boys did."
"Oh my! Would you excuse me for a moment?"
(*flees museum)
Well, I still have a few earrings left to find so I'll still be visiting the island from time to time but it looks like my digging days are over.
First fossil: 3/17/12
Last fossil: 6/18/13

Thanks! I would try the six tickets you already have first, you might get lucky and you can always buy more tickets later.
Re: Granzella Fossil Collection and Guide[ Edited ]
OMG - OK... on a whim, I figure I would go after that most elusive of fossils (to me at least), the Left Wing of the Pteranodon. I even went so far as to purchase, on the off-chance, a bundle of 30 more GZ tickets in case the six remaining tickets did not produce the missing fossil (insurance as it were). Good thing I did too ... I spent half of the new batch - to put the odds in my favors.
So I dug here and there every day, only hitting the paid site three times a day because that wing was only found there (plus the appraisers noted that I already dug all the fossils I could find in both the normal rock wall and secret excavation site). I let my clod list build until I finally went to the Lady appraiser tonight.
I burned through the first 18 clods from those last six tickets - nada. Now I'm into the clods I got with the first 15 tickets, crossing my fingers. I got rid of anything that was NOT a large or extra large. Then I went though my larges ... and lo, and behold, you could say a miracle happened. Remember that discussion about Two-fers ... getting two fossils in one clod? I never though this would happen, but it did ... I was turning in the third to last Large in my clod list, which gave me a fossil I already had (no big whoop), but then the Lady told me I had another fossil:
Yep, ladies and gents, my two-fer was my missing fossil. I couldn't believe it ... EPIC WIN!!!
So, for now, until GZ decides to add more fossils to the Fossil Digging game, this Bunny's done digging in the dirt. Thanks to Mermaid-KT, Joanna_Dark_, Ren_Echo, and all of you for your help in this endeavour!
1st Fossil - 3/16/12 - Trilobite Head

|Lou Williams wins Sixth Man over Isaiah Thomas
|04.20.15 at 12:57 pm ET
Raptors guard Lou Williams beat Celtics guard Isaiah Thomas for the NBA's Sixth Man of the Year honor by a significant margin, the league announced on Monday morning.
Williams received 78 of the 130 possible first-place votes from a panel of sportswriters. His 34 second-place votes and 10 third-place votes gave him a total of 502 points. Meanwhile, Thomas received 33 first-place votes, 46 second-place votes and 21 third-place votes for a total of 324 points — the second-highest total in the voting.
Williams appeared on 122 of 130 ballots, as Jamal Crawford (131 points), Andre Iguodala (100), Tristan Thompson (33), Nikola Mirotic (24), Marreese Speights (20), Corey Brewer (12), Manu Ginobili (12), Taj Gibson (8), Aaron Brooks (1), Chris Kaman (1), Anthony Morrow (1) and Dennis Schroder (1) all received votes. How 30 writers left Thomas off the ballot entirely is a mystery.
We've already covered in great deal why Thomas deserved the award over Williams, so we won't get too far into the weeds here, except to say Thomas averaged more points, assists and rebounds while shooting better from everywhere on the floor and submitting a superior player efficiency rating.
|Video: Jeff Green chases down, blocks Lou Williams
|11.05.14 at 8:08 pm ET
The Celtics got out to an early double-digit lead against the visiting Raptors where an engaged Jeff Green was a big factor. This remarkable chase-down block of Lou Williams highlighted was one of three blocks for Green to go along with seven points and two assists in the opening frame. The Celtics led 35-23 after one.
|NBA Free Agent Rumors: 76ers guard Lou Williams set to test free agent market
|06.18.12 at 4:19 pm ET
While 76ers' guard Lou Williams wants to remain in Philadelphia, he has decided to opt out of the final year of his contract. Williams, 25, chose to opt out in order to gauge his market. He was scheduled to make $6.39 million dollars this season, which would have been the last year of a 5-year, $25 million contract.
The Philadelphia Daily News reports that interest in Williams is "significant" and he could be offered a contract in the "Thaddeus Young range." Young, a backup forward for the 76ers, was given a 5-year deal worth about $43 million before the start of this season.
Williams averaged 11.5 points off the Sixers bench. He was the third highest scorer on the 22nd ranked Philadelphia offense.
|Sixers in search of closer, remain positive despite fourth-quarter collapse
|05.14.12 at 10:05 am ET
This was the script Doug Collins dreamed of — his team clinging to a six-point lead, early in the fourth quarter on the road, despite multiple runs by the Celtics. His collar loosened, ever so slightly, as Lou Williams got a hand on a Ray Allen jump shot, and then pulled up in transition to bury a long-range shot of his own. Seconds later, Lavoy Allen sank a textbook baby hook shot, and the 76ers opened up a 10-point lead.
The momentum abruptly came to a halt, however, as the Celtics went on a 12-2 run over the next five minutes. The Sixers offense proved to be non-existent at the worst possible time, and suddenly, with just under five minutes left to play, Philly was trading baskets in a one-possession game with the Celtics. The lead, the security, and hopes of catching Boston off guard and stealing home court vanished.
'I'm proud of our guys," Collins said. "We are off to a really good start. What we needed here, coming in today on the road, we fought on some. When it is all said and done, we had a great chance to get this game today and just had four really bad offensive possessions that really hurt us.'
What may trouble Collins most is not how his team blew the lead, but who blew the lead. Going into the fourth quarter, everything appeared to be working for the 76ers. Andre Iguodala and Evan Turner had 16 points each, the Sixers forced Rajon Rondo into committing six turnovers, they outscored Boston's bench 20-14, and they were even shooting 4-of-10 on 3-pointers.
A big question mark going into this series, though, was if Philly's playmakers — Iguodala, Turner and Williams — could come through down the stretch. Saturday night, the answer was no. The three combined to go 2-for-10 from the field in the fourth quarter. And, as their shooting touch failed them, none were able to get to the foul line. Williams had a shot blocked, Iguodala had two of his sent the other way, and both had turnovers in critical moments. Most telling is that not one 76er scored more than four points in the fourth quarter.
'That's sort of the sign of a team that's trying to grow and figure out what it is to play this kind of championship basketball in the NBA playoffs,' Collins said.
As much as the Sixers did struggle, Rondo was great when he needed to be, atoning for an uneven night. In the final frame alone, he had six points, four assists and five boards. The assists came from Rondo pushing the ball upcourt. The Celtics scored seven of their 14 fast-break points in the fourth quarter. Perhaps the scariest aspect of Rondo's fourth-quarter performance was each of his three field goals coming from 18 feet and out.
'When he starts making shots, you have to honor that,' Turner said. 'That allows the other guys to get space. It allows [Kevin Garnett] to get on the block one-on-one with a guy, or Paul [Pierce] to iso, or for Ray [Allen].'
Said Doc Rivers: 'I thought Rondo's shooting, obviously, down the stretch was fantastic. He wanted those shots. We ran that play, we were going to switch Ray and put him in that spot where the guy curls back up, and Rondo wanted that play. He wanted the shot and he took it. That has to be great for his confidence.'
|76ers minus two
|11.25.09 at 7:54 pm ET
The Sixers are without starting point guard Lou Williams and power forward Elton Brand for Wednesday night's game with the Celtics.
Williams suffered a fractured jaw in their game Tuesday with Washington, while Brand has been struggling with a sore hamstring. Rookie Jrue Holiday will start in place of Williams and Jason Smith gets the nod for Brand.

We've expanded our popular WaverlyTM Pen Pal pattern into soft, stretch velvet in a two-piece fit. We styled the collection to showcase its playfully scripted French message and correspond beautifully with both classic and contemporary decors. You can mix and match it with our original relaxed Pen Pal styles or create accent pieces with your club chairs, ottoman or dining room set. 95% polyester/5% spandex. Machine washable.
Gorgeous Cover!!
I Just purchased this cover and put it on my sofa today. It looks gorgeous. I wish I could post a picture of my sofa so you could see that it looks as good as the picture here. The sure fit stretch took approximately 5 minutes to put on the sofa and fits like a dream. The fabric manipulates so easily and with a few tucks it almost looks like the original upholstery! This is such an economical solution to a couch that had faded from sunlight to an unattractive color, but was otherwise in great shape. Thanks Sure Fit!

What We Give Up to Pay for Weapons
Saturday's New York Times contained an interesting op-ed piece by Charles Blow, titled "American Shame." The main item was a table listing the 33 countries designated as "advanced economies" by the International Monetary Fund and comparing them on various social and educational characteristics. Specifically, Blow charted income inequality, unemployment rates, level of democracy, the "percentage thriving" (according to the Gallup Global Well-Being Index), food insecurity, prison population, and student performance in math and science. The bottom line: The United States is at the bottom of the heap on most of these measures, and at or near the top in none.
It's a sobering collection of data, to be sure, but I wish Blow had added two more columns to his chart: 1) percentage of GDP devoted to defense, and 2) defense spending per capita.

The 2013 Hangout Festival in Gulf Shores, AL has expanded its lineup, adding Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Stevie Wonder, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Imagine Dragons, Baauer and more. They join Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Kings Of Leon, Trey Anastasio Band, The Shins, Kendrick Lamar, Passion Pit, The Black Crowes and many, many more. The festival runs from May 17-19.
Rumors continue to circulate that The Rolling Stones will play the Glastonbury Festival in England this summer. The lineup has yet to be announced, but Kasabian's Serge Pizzorno mentioned to MTV News UK this week that the Stones will be playing. Pizzorno told MTV he hoped his own band would be a part of Glastonbury "because The Rolling Stones are playing Glastonbury. I can imagine there will be a lot of people there waiting for them."
Indie rockers Portugal. The Man will release their new album Evil Friends, via Atlantic Records, on June 4. The album was producer by Danger Mouse and the video for the title track and lead single is now streaming on portugaltheman.com. The band has a handful of live dates announced for April, surrounding their sets at Coachella, as well as appearances at Bonnaroo and Governor's Ball in NYC.
Influential guitarist Alvin Lee has passed away at the age of 68, due to "unforeseen complications" from a routine surgery. Lee was the singer/guitarist for British Blues-rockers Ten Years After, whose performance of "I'm Going Home" was one of the major focuses of the famous Woodstock documentary. The band had four hit singles on the Billboard Hot 100 in the late '60s and early '70s.

Where I stayed
Helen's Home
Peter has become a celebrity over night: we went to the park where much poi and juggling takes place and they all came to him, intrigued by his abilities with three sticks. Within mintues gossip had spread: "He's from Scotland," "he has been practising for 7 years!" "He trains in his garden". Of course, Peter unused to this kind of attention, became very embarrassed and modest, so we left to eat some Russian pancakes. They eagerly await his return on Friday evening
If we take ourselves back two weeks today, we had managed to register ourselves and were making our way to the MAKS air show. Jenny had been given tickets for the business visit, so we all got special badges with our names on (being called Dalaleish was a first). Unfortunately, the Russian commander of the equivalent of the Red Arrows had an accident and crashed his plane so we were only able to see the French fliers. It was still a very impressive sight, the noise of the planes was remarkable, and the field was filled amass with all kinds of machines. Jenny fell in love with a cute little hover craft whilst Chris immersed himself into the big fighter jets and concord. In the food marquee business people gathered together and bought bottles of vodka, easily consumed with their meals.
Since then we have moved to a different part of Moscow, as Chris and Jenny's landlady was not at all happy that we would be staying there whilst they were away. So a few quick phone calls later and we were put into a much bigger flat where we have our own room, a big empty fridge to fill and some fish to look at. The girl that lives here is called Helen, and at first she struggled dearly to speak any English, but she picked it up so quickly so now we can get by, sometimes with the help of a translator on the internet
Before Chris and Jenny left, they took us to Red Square and all the fountains which looked glorious with all the lighting. We tried to find somewhere to eat and failed miserably, so we just got on the metro and went to a specific place where I had an amazing Oreo smoothie. As it was getting late we were put in a gypsy taxi and were soon on our way safely home. Little did we know that the taxi would get lost and we'd end up driving round and round unable to communicate. It was rather unnerving as the driver muttered under his breath and tried to get rid of us. Eventually we recognised where we were and were able to point to keep him going, saying supermarket also helped. At home awaited a very anxious Helen who had been worrying as we were back so late.
Somehow, over the next few days I had a cold, so we didn't really do much. On Wednesday we met with Robin who knows so much about Moscow and was great company. We found our way to this art exhibition, called How Do You Do... Moscow, about all the foreigners living here and all their different ways of life. It was really interesting finding out that there were so many non-Russians living here and reading about all their little jokes and quirks about living here. Such as the amazingly cheap efficient metro or hailing down a random car on the street and immediately five will pull over (gypsey taxis) or how beautiful it is here in the Winter and you can go snowboarding after work
Robin also showed us the ultimate tourist street, filled with artists, buskers and people desperately trying to give you leaflets. We shared a very nice pizza together as we had a crash course in learning Russian numbers before he had to dash off on business. The next day we went to the ballet, Romeo and Juliet by Prokofiev. Unexpectedly Google maps had confused us by showing the theatre as being on the right hand side of the Bolshoi, but it was no where to be found. We asked for help and no one had even heard of the RAMT theatre. We were ten minutes late by the time we found it, on the left hand side of the Bolshoi. Luckily they let us stand at the back until the interval. The theatre was much smaller than I expected, and the orchestra was also small, but still impressive. The costumes were absolutely amazing, and the dancing beautiful, Peter even enjoyed it. At points it was even dark and scary, as the ghosts appeared to take Tybalt and Mercutio away to the afterlife.
We met Robin again on Friday, by the man on the horse outside what we thought was the biggest museum in the world. It went on forever and ever. I managed to get a student ticket so I could also get a ticket to use my camera which was lots of fun. There was this whole exhibition on gold which went on and on, gold from Europe, gold from the Middle East, gold from the Olympics, gold from the huge expanse that is Russia..
Then Peter felt a wave of boredom as we got to the fossils and pots and other ancient tools so he began to make silly jokes. Time was running out so we had to quickly skim through the Tsars and such and then we were off to meet Maxim to be taken to and English club.
It was very strange to be in one room where so many people spoke English, we expecting more foreigners and the like, but they were mostly Russian and all told us about how they loved Scottish veeskey. We met someone who had wanted to do Astrophysics! Suddenly a half naked girl appeared and started doing Latin dancing. Then people got up to join in and everything went crazy. We joined in on the last dance, managing to pick the hardest one to take part in, but it was all good fun and maybe we will go again.
We look forward to Chris and Jenny's wedding next Tuesday, and a trip to St Petersburg, and maybe the circus!

Carly Rae Jepsen Promotes Broadway's "Cinderella" on "Good Morning America"
Taking a break from her crazy rehearsal schedule, Carly Rae Jepsen showed up at ABC Studios in Times Square for an appearance on "Good Morning America" today (January 20).
The "Call Me Maybe" songstress was in the house to promote her latest gig as the lead role in the Broadway revival of "Cinderella," and it sounds like things have been going well.
Carly Rae gushed, "I've dreamed of being on Broadway since I can remember and 'Cinderella' is kind of the dream role. I don't even think I took it that far in my imagination. I always thought, 'Maybe one day on Broadway I'll be Maid #3?' So this is such an honor. I can't wait."
However, her stage duties haven't afforded Miss Jepsen much time to enjoy Manhattan. "I am only doing this. I am eating, breathing and sleeping 'Cinderella.' It's very gratifying. It's hard work but it's worth it."
