"EVERYONE knows it's been a hard time for music," remarked Kenny Anderson, aka Fence Collective prime mover King Creosote, during his Saturday night set here on Eigg, "and I've spent a lot of the last two years asking myself what the hell is the point."
Beyond a few deathly whisky- induced hangovers, that was about as sombre as Scotland's newest festival - an inspired transplanting of Fence's annual, Anstruther-based Home Game to the Inner Hebridean Isle of Eigg - was allowed to become. "Just to stand with Johnny Lynch (Away Game organiser and fellow Fence-runner] and see you all coming off those ferries yesterday makes it all worthwhile," continued Anderson, before battering into his traditional set-closer The Happy Song while Lynch yelled along on backing vocals.
From braving the waves and singing sea shanties on the ferries from Arisaig (ballboy's Gordon McIntyre, during a well-received solo set, would describe those who endured a tumultuous early evening crossing on Friday as "my team"), to camping out and drinking around the fire with members of the wealth of great bands packing the bill, to exploring the stunning and fortunately sun-kissed single-track island's Singing Sands and Massacre Cave - also the name of the local metal band who closed the bill early on Sunday morning - this wasn't just a music festival. It was an adventure, a bonding event for the indie scenesters of Edinburgh, Glasgow, London and elsewhere who had made the trip, and it was a true privilege to be a part of it.
Besides a rich array of emerging Scots talent such as FOUND, Come On Gang!, Withered Hand, Slow Club and Meursault, other acts had made longer journeys. Darren Hayman, formerly leader of Essex indie icons Hefner, began his set of humorous, heartbreaking indie anthems for guitar and fiddle with "a song about something that can hardly ever happen on the Isle of Eigg - someone dying in a car crash", while Malcolm Middleton gauged the mood of early Saturday well with a collection of (mostly) soothing instrumentals from his new project Human Don't Be Angry.
Despite being obviously and uproariously drunk, British Sea Power provided a focused and noisy set worthy of de facto headliners. Yet Lynch - who also played as part of his Silver Columns and Pictish Trail projects - and Anderson were, as ever with Fence events, the true stars of the show, epitomising the combination of endeavour and community spirit which represents the Scottish music scene at its very best. Setting a perfect lead, in other words, for any fellow artists who might have ever asked themselves what the hell is the point.

Embraer: The Sky's The Limit
The local police band breaks into the national anthem as Mauricio Botelho, president of Embraer, whips a blue cloth off a commemorative stone. It's the second time in a month the Brazilian aerospace group has started work on a new factory, and Botelho is fired up. "We're investing heavily, we're creating jobs, we're distributing wealth," he tells the crowd of farmers and politicians who have braved the scorching sun to get a look at the man who's going to build jets amid the cane fields and orange groves of upstate Sao Paulo.
Botelho has got plenty to brag about. In the six years that the 58-year-old engineer has been behind the controls, Embraer has become the world's fourth-largest maker of passenger planes and Brazil's biggest exporter to boot. Sales soared 32% in 2000, to a record $2.6 billion, generating profits of $315 million, according to analyst estimates. Not bad for a company that regularly racked up multimillion-dollar losses before it was privatized in December, 1994.
But not everyone is basking in the glow of Embraer's success. Canada's Bombardier Inc., which once dominated the fast-growing market for 20- to 110-seat jets, has seen its share slip in the past five years. "Embraer has closed the gap and now has almost 50%," says Doug Abbey, president of AvStat Associates Inc., a Washington (D.C.) aviation consultancy.
Since 1996, the two rivals have been locked in a bitter dispute over export subsidies. The battle escalated all the way to the World Trade Organization, which ruled that the subsidies Brazil and Canada grant their respective planemakers are unfair. Both countries have modified their subsidy programs, but the WTO says Brazil must go further. So on Dec. 12, the organization authorized Canadian trade sanctions on $1.4 billion worth of Brazilian imports over six years.
Both Canada and Brazil say they want to avert a full-blown trade war, but negotiations have become increasingly acrimonious. That's not surprising given what's at stake. According to AvStat, sales of small passenger jets will nearly double over the next two decades to more than 400 a year, as regional carriers in the U.S. and Europe retire their turboprop aircraft and those in Latin America and Asia build up their fleets.
The Brazilians badly want a bigger share of this market. Founded in 1969, Embraer made a name for itself building high-quality civil and military aircraft. Trouble was, they were so expensive nobody wanted to buy them. That has changed. Embraer's family of regional jets, launched in 1995, was an instant hit with U.S. airlines like American Eagle and Continental Express and Switzerland's Crossair.
Price is one big factor. Embraer's popular ERJ 145, a 50-seat jet, sells for around $17 million, compared with $21 million for a competing aircraft made by Bombardier. And that price differential grows larger when so-called Proex subsidies are factored in. Under that scheme, Embraer's overseas customers are eligible for low-interest loans that can slash as much as $2 million off the price of a new plane. "Undoubtedly, Embraer has gained a much larger share of the market than they would have achieved without Proex," says Yvan Allaire, executive vice-president of Bombardier.
"IN TUNE." But to hear Botelho tell it, Embraer's strengths lie elsewhere. "We have the right product at the right time," he says. That claim appears to hold some water. "They're really in tune with what their customers want," says David Wheeler, a Bear, Stearns & Co. analyst in Sao Paulo. A case in point is the ERJ 145 XR, a jet Embraer developed specifically for Continental Express so it could fly longer routes.
Now, Embraer is moving on to bigger things. The first in a family of 70-, 98-, and 108-seater jets will begin rolling out of its Sao Jose dos Campos factory in 2002. With the larger jets, Embraer will be playing David to such industry Goliaths as Boeing Co. and Airbus Industrie. Still, Embraer has buyers for 120 of the jets, plus 205 options to buy, bringing its total backlog to 914 orders and 577 options as of the end of November.
In the long run, taking on Boeing and Airbus may prove ill-advised: Another short-haul planemaker, Fokker, folded in the mid-'90s, in part because it couldn't vie with the giants. But for now, investors seem confident Embraer will remain a highflier. In July, its ADRs were launched on the New York Stock Exchange at $18.50. They now trade at around $40.
That's remarkable for a company at the center of an international trade spat. Embraer itself has nothing to lose from sanctions, since Canada doesn't import any of its jets. More important, analysts expect it will survive the phaseout of the Proex program: Operating costs have fallen vis-a-vis Bombardier's, thanks to the 1999 devaluation of the Brazilian real. It will take more than fierce trade winds to knock Embraer off its course.

Primer questions
I have used spackle to repair wall damage. I will be repainting the walls with the same color (very close to it). The paint I am going with is a paint+primer. Will two coats of such a paint conceal the spackled spots well enough?
Or do I have to use a separate primer first? If I use a primer first, is it a MUST to sand the primed wall before applying the paint?
Thanks in advance.
Paint and primer in one is a scam.
Make 100% sure there repaired areas are perfectly smooth. Run you hand over it.
No paint or primer is going to fix flaws.
You Zinsser 123 to prime then two coats of quality paint.
Thanks for the quick reply.
Is it ok to paint directly over the primer without sanding first? I'd like to avoid the effort of sanding if possible.
Actually 2 coats of paint+primer often will cover patches. What is the sheen - flat, eggshell....? I would definitely sand the. You don't normally have to sand the primed areas if you don't want to.
I am thinking of going with eggshell but can switch to flat if that's better in this case.
You should put on what you really want in the end. Just keep in mind:
- flat: hides flaws in the wall better, usually don't need to prime patches, easier to touch up later, but harder to scrub and keep clean.
- eggshell: shows wall and patch flaws more, must use multiple coats and/or a primer to cover patches, harder to touch up later, easier to scrub and keep clean.
Primer & paint in one does NOT do the same thing that priming first, then painting, does.
Might want to check out the search function to read the dozens of people dealing with trying to paint with no primer and the paints flashing and the repaired areas are still showing.
To answer the question, no, you do not need to sand the primer
I plan to only put primer on the spackled areas. After two coats of paint will there be a noticeable contrast between the primered and nonprimered areas?
I.e do I need to put primer on the entire area?
Back to the topic at hand. Whenever possible primer is always best for any patchwork. Sometimes it is not feasible to use primer for just a couple spots. If that is the case then use your finish paint as a primer. And no, finish paint is not a primer. Paint the patched spots and allow it to dry, then your 2 follow-up finish coats on the entire wall should make the patched areas match the surrounding area. One coat of flat paint is never going to work over any patched areas. It "may" look ok straight on but it will stick out like a sore thumb when viewed at an angle. You are not just matching the color, you have to build up the texture to insure uniformity.

An op-ed from Paul Steinberg in the New York Times a few days ago discusses the fact that families of soldiers who have committed suicide do not receive presidential condolence letters. The concern is that actions taken to commemorate or honor people who commit suicide will encourage more suicides. Steinberg writes
"The hard truth is that any possible glorification of suicide — even reports of suicide — make the taking of one's life a more viable option. If suicide appears to be a more reasonable way of handling life's stresses than seeking help, then suicide rates increase."
The theory that the publicity of suicides can cause more suicides is known as "the Werther effect", after Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's The Sufferings of Young Werther. According to Robert Cialidini's book Influence, when the Goethe's novel about the suicide of Werther was published, it set off a wave of copycat suicides.
Evidence for the theory was first offered by David Phillips in 1974 (gated version of the paper here). He found that suicides dramatically increase after a story about a suicide makes the front page New York Times. His estimate was that after each front page story, 58 more people kill themselves than otherwise would have. The idea is that finding out that someone else has killed themself gives people considering suicide the impetus to do it themselves. He later found that suicides also increased the number of deaths from car accidents. The theory here is that drivers are wrecking their cars as a way to kill themselves.
This theory is believable enough. And it makes sense to take such things into consideration when deciding how to commemorate and honor soldiers who have taken the own lives. Where things become slightly unbelievable is another of Phillips findings; that commercial airplane crashes increase after publicity of suicides. My instinct would be to interpret this statistical result the exact opposite way that Phillips did; I would take it as calling into question the validity of the original model, and thus the original result that publicity of suicides cause more suicides.
A common approach economists take to testing an empirical model sensible is to test whether they can find a relationship by plugging in something similar to the dependent variable they are investigating, but that couldn't possibly be affected by the explanatory variables at hand. If you find an effect when it is not plausible, then something may be wrong with the model. For instance, say someone has what they think is a good exogenous proxy measure for Wal-Mart store openings, and they find it has a negative effect on retail employment. A good test of this would be to see if the instrument effects manufacturing employment, which, like retail employment, would be related with overall economic growth but would not plausibly effected by a Wal-Mart opening (This exact study was done in this paper by Emek Basker). If you find your proxy variable for Wal-Mart openings has a strong effect on manufacturing employment, then something is probably wrong with the model or the proxy measure, and your previous results are called into question.
So if I found that publicized suicides were causing more suicides, and more car accidents, as Phillips does, I would test it against something similar that it wouldn't likely be affecting, like commercial airplane crashes, or even better, boat crashes. If I found a positive effect, I would question my model's specification, not assume that I had found some new effect of suicides.
The reason I find it so unbelievable that suicides cause commercial plane crashes is the (what seems to me) lack of any specific plane crashes that can be blamed on a pilot's suicide. If this was occurring so frequently, then surely there must be specific cases where an after-the-fact investigation cited suicide as a probable or even possible cause for the plane crash. In one of his papers, Phillips calls for interviews with family members of people who have recently committed suicide to see if the story holds up. This kind of evidence may well exist for plane crashes, and if I did I would reconsider the hypothesis. But a result like this can't stand on the statistical evidence alone.
According to Jane Pirkis, of the University of Melbourne, over 100 studies have been conducted to examine the impact of media reporting on suicides, and that the evidence overwhelmingly supports the causal relationship. I am curious if any of these look at commercial plane crashes, and if that relationship is robust. Robert Cialdini certainly finds the evidence persuasive. It seems like the question of whether or not publicized suicides cause plane crashes is something we would like to have an answer to, especially when considering policies regarding how honor those who have killed themselves. In addition, if the result is sound, it seems we should be a lot more critical of the media for sensationalizing suicides.
It may well be that this result is long settled and the hypothesis rejected, and that I am simply unaware of it. If so, Robert Cialdini is incorrect. If this is not the case, then I think awareness of this potential problem is far too low.

Porter, a receptionist from Kennington, south London, admitted one count of recklessly inflicting grievous bodily harm with intent in May 2003. Inner London crown court heard that she was in denial about having the condition.
After the hearing, police said Porter had refused to cooperate in tracking down her former sexual partners. Detective Sergeant Brian McClusky said: "We located four. One was infected, and the quality of his life has been severely curtailed. For the others, there was still heartbreak and stress for them and their partners as they waited for test results."
Detectives began an investigation after a former boyfriend, referred to in court as Mr B, reported Porter to the police last May. He told officers he had been having regular unprotected sex with her, but had then heard rumours that she was HIV-positive. Mr B did not contract the virus.
Police searched her flat and traced a previous boyfriend, Mr C, who told them Porter had given him the virus. The court heard that Mr C, a disc jockey and promoter from south London, had been in an exclusive relationship with Porter when he developed a sexually transmitted disease. He went for a check-up and discovered he also had HIV. Porter did not tell him that she had been diagnosed HIV-positive in February 2000. Instead she agreed to go for a test herself. Her boyfriend blamed himself for her positive result, the court heard. The couple stayed together, but her boyfriend then bumped into another man who told him that she had acquired the virus years before.

Acclaimed for its dense, expansive form and linguistic energy, Albert Goldbarth's poetry covers everything from historical and scientific concerns to private and ordinary matters. His numerous, highly-regarded collections are often filled with long poems which range in style from playful and conversational to serious and philosophical. Goldbarth's unique style is a mix of complex ideas and detailed descriptions woven together with verbal play and often juxtaposed with dissimilar objects and facts. Goldbarth "has that rare gift of seeing metaphor in almost any event, of discovering a poem in the most unlikely places," described Robert Cording in the Carolina Quarterly, adding, "Goldbarth's poems…yoke disparate conceits, and [are] almost always fearlessly playful in their approach…It's too easy to forget that for all of Goldbarth's bravura, the poems' punch lies in the way they affect us: over and over they tenderly remind us of the conditions of our humanness."

The Montreal Canadiens have dealt right wing Erik Cole to the Dallas Stars in exchange for Michael Ryder and a third round pick. Analysis to follow
SPECTOR'S NOTE: Hey, kids, it's an honest-to-goodness hockey trade! Cole had been struggling this season, even apologizing to his teammates for his poor play. Of late he seemed to have good chemistry with Lars Eller and Alex Galchenyuk, but the Ottawa Sun's Bruce Garrioch reported Sunday the Canadiens would like to shed his $4.5 million per season salary. Ryder's had a strong start this season with the Stars, with 14 points in 19 games, but is slated to become a UFA this summer, and there was talk the Stars could move him. Looks like the Habs shed salary for a more affordable offensive upgrade, while the Stars get a proven player in return.

Your article was very well written and most appreciated. We lost our dog over 10 years ago and did not feel I could go through putting down another dog. They are too precious in my life. Instead, I chose to visit my daughter often and enjoy her dog. Lately, I have been giving some thought to getting another dog. As I mentioned, your article arrived at just the right time. Thank you.

I'm a senior. I will be 72 in October. Pets are great. They keep you company and never judge you or criticize.
I fostered cats for about ten years. First for TVAR (Tri-Valley Animal Rescue) and later for Safe-Cat Foundation in San Ramon. Cats are easy to take care of and very friendly once they learn to trust you. If a cat is aloof and hiding, just give it more time.
So many homeless animals are put to sleep (killed) in shelters. Please consider adopting one today. Big dogs are much more difficult to place than small dogs, so if you have a yard or need some exercise, adopt a big dog and take it for daily walks. It's good for you and good for the dog.
Consider adopting more than one dog or cat, especially if they are already together in the shelter. They will keep each other company if you work or go out regularly.

Chargers Get Offensive Thus Far In Free Agency
It may now be official that the Chargers picks in the upcoming NFL Draft will again be primarily focused on the defensive side of the football. Given the team's moves in free agency to land a number of offensive weapons and re-sign several key components along the offensive line, defense will have to take priority in April's selection process.
The team did begin to address the defense over the weekend however by signing former Green Bay Packers' safety Atari Bigby to a two-year contract. While Bigby may not be the big name player that many were hoping for at the safety spot, he has been productive during his career and has the big-hit ability that the Bolts have been missing in the secondary. Bigby will likely be in competition with Darrell Stuckey to start alongside Eric Weddle in 2012.
Still there is plenty of work to be done on every level defensively however beginning on the defensive line where depth will be an issue given the release of Luis Castillo earlier in the offseason. Younger players will be expected to take on expanded roles as Corey Liuget likely elevates to a starter, Cam Thomas will have high expectations at the nose tackle spot, and Vaughn Martin will certainly see more of the field this year as well. These players may be unproven as of yet, but the team has lofty aspirations for each and all three were solid contributors in stretches during the 2011 campaign.
At the linebacker level, Takeo Spikes will be back for one more season while Donald Butler tries to back up his impressive Bolts' debut with another solid showing in the coming year. Shaun Phillips is back as the primary pass rusher, but after him the team really lacks anyone capable of applying consistent pressure on opposing quarterbacks. Finding that energy player who can give the club a shot in the arm at any given moment with a sack or forced fumble will be vital to improving the defense in the coming year. The signing of former Baltimore Ravens' outside linebacker Jaret Johnson could provide that type of impact, but there is no doubt that the team still needs more in the pass rush department.
The search for that sack artist will likely be centered on the NFL Draft where the Bolts have been linked to both Alabama's Courtney Upshaw and Illinois standout Whitney Mercilus over the past few months. Either player makes a lot of sense for the Chargers with the 18th overall selection and one of the two is highly likely to be available when the Bolts are put on the clock. Plugging an energetic rookie pass rusher into a developing defense is a strategy that this team has employed before back in 2005 with Shawne Merriman and the results in the upcoming season could be very similar if all goes according to plan.
In the secondary, the team has at least added some competition with the Bigby signing, but few believe that will be enough for General Manager A.J. Smith. He has been thought to have real interest in Notre Dame safety Harrison Smith in the second round of April's draft and with his big frame and tremendous instincts, he would make a great fit to pair with Weddle.
As for the cornerback spot, Quentin Jammer will be 33 years of age when training camp gets underway and many have thought him long overdue for a move to safety. He appeared to lose a step in the latter half of 2011, but the team will most likely still rely on him for one more season as a full-time starter. Antoine Cason has been average at best and regularly abused by bigger, stronger, more physical receivers in the past. There is no doubt the team needs some depth at corner and hopefully that can be found at some point during the draft.
For now, at least this year's moves in free agency appear to be a bit more impactful on paper than those from an offseason ago. The Bolts have retooled their receiving corps and gone further to add depth to some thinner areas of the roster even before the NFL Draft. All of this should bode well for their chances to change the recent downtrend of two straight seasons watching the playoffs on television.
Here's your chance to weigh-in! Are you surprised with the offensive focus in free agency or do you think GM Smith is onto something with his acquisitions thus far? Will the addition of Atari Bigby be enough to solidify the safety spot, or will the Bolts take another in next month's draft? Which level of the defense do you think needs the most help; D-line, linebackers, or secondary? Can the ability to pull the right strings in terms of personnel help the Chargers become contenders again in 2012 or will they continue to flounder in the coming season? Please fill up the comments section below with your thoughts!

I do think that the Chargers have made some good moves this off season with the new offensive additions. I think Meachem is a good pick up and i really like Royal as our new return guy. MCclain is an awesome fullback and i think he will for sure improve our running game. As far as defense i really like Johnson he is a solid linebacker for run defense. I'm not sold on Bigby and i don't think he is the answer for safety. We could use the draft to try and upgrade this area. Overall i am pleased with the signings so far but i have a feeling that we have to many holes to fill and that we lack in depth. I still feel that the OL needs to be addressed as far as depth is concerned. We now desperately need a strong pass rush especially with the addition of Manning to the Broncos. The DL and Coroners are relatively young and unproven so they are a ?. CB's i'm not sure about because it seemed that a lack of a pass rush could of made them look worse then they really are. Personally i would rather move Jammer to safety this year and have Cason and Gilchrist be our primary coroners, and pick up another CB in the 3rd. I think we could use help at every position but there are a decent amount of young defensive players and perhaps they will step up their game so i will say just having a better Pass Rush would be the most important. As far as contenders go i think that they are probaly not. Although they can improve with the additions through the draft i think that these players are simply unproven and we will have no idea how effective they will be next year. I think that Denver is ahead of us in that they showed that they have a relatively good defense and with the addition of Manning it makes them an offensive threat as well. But this of course all depends variables such as teams staying healthy, and players performing at their expected level. I just think that the Chargers need more defensive play makers that offensives fear and the only way to do that is to cross our fingers that maybe this year AJ won't miss....The Chargers need to be lucky unfortunately we haven't been in years past

Am I the only one that is nervous that we are hoping that we find Shawn Merriman's long lost twin brother in the draft? Isn't that a lot of wishful thinking? I am not saying Upshaw can't make an immediate impact, or that we don't need to draft an up-n-coming pass rusher to replace Philips one day... but, don't we have an IMMEDIATE need at pass rusher?
It's going to take time for a newly drafted player to get used to the NFL. Not sure if we can afford to take half a season or more to groom a rookie. Even if we do a spectacular job, and he excels... he will probably just "show promise" or "show potential" for elite status next season, at best. Can we PLEASE get someone with some notches in his belt for this position? Like a Cliff Avril, or someone like that? Someone who still has youth on his side, and will be good for the team in the long run?
I don't get it... but, then again... I'm not a football GM either.
While the Chargers have done well on the offensive side of the ball in free agency, the defense is scary. Jammer should be a safety. I don;t think a part time starter like Bigby is suddenly going to become a starter' The defense backfield is bad and the pass rush is worse. Cason was abused over and over again by bigger stronger receivers. To make matters worse with no rush the backfield is exposed. Lot of holes
First, in regards to the article, Liegut and Martin both started last year and I thought they played well for first year starters, with almost a full season of game exp and a full training camp under their belts, I expect them to improve on solid seasons last year. SP is thought to be our "primary pass rusher" however there is someone else on the roster that got after the QB last year.... think.... ill just tell you... Antwan Barnes led the team with 11 sacks..thats not a bad number considering SP missed 5+ games on the other side of the ball AND Barnes had to split time with Travis La Boyhe cant play.
I agree, hoping for the next "Lights Out" in the draft is not "signing Mario Williams" good, but it isnt a terrible strategy considering Super Mario wasn't going to happen because we would have blown our load for one player and left gaping holes in our team.
Instead, we were able to beef up our return game (Eddie Royal is top 5 in that department, IMO top three), replace the catches, yards and TDs we lost to tampa bay(VJ- 60 catches, 1000+ yards, 9 TDs) with Meachem(who is a bad man that had to share catches with 8 receivers in New Orleans) and Royal( who is a very dangerous slot receiver in space), and provide a true lead blocking FB for Matthews to utilize. Do we notice whats going on here yet???? No more single back formation draw calls on 1st down. Power run game!!! We are gonna let McClain blow up backers and let Matthews run through a real hole LT/ Lorenzo Neal-style. This style of running will get us away from our notorious knack of having 3rd and long reserved for a Rivers magic bomb. This sets up play action for Gates(where he is most dangerous-in the REDZONE), shortens our down and distance yardage and kills clock so that we cant blow 20+ pointleads (ie Jets game last year)
As for the safety spot, I have to admit I would love to see Jammer move there...its just not going to happen. Bigby is a serviceable starter, and a big hitter. Stuckey is a solid tackler and a ball hawk since his freshman year in college..they will compete for the starting position and I personally think Stuckey wins that position and plays well(50+ tackles, 3 picks, 2 FF)
Finally, FYI, Double J(Jarrett Johnson) did not come here to rush the passer, he is known as a stout run stuffer that can cover TEs, period. He will play in run situations and spell Antwan Barnes so that he is fresh to ATTACK THE QB. JJ is a solid vet LB and a smart player that has a nasty style I hope will rub off on that side of the ball. SP stays healthy and Spikes and Butler do what they did last year, our linebackers corps is much better. Cason and Jammer are good corners, they are simply in the position of being asked to do too much... we need to pressure throws and get to the QB for their skill sets to work to our advantage, not try to get them to cover huge fast receivers one on one for an infinite amount of time!!
I think over all: We have Philip Rivers, we've improved the roster, if we play better third down defense, get a stud pass rusher in the draft and have some luck in staying health, this charger team could be the team people thought they could be, not the team that lost weird games in weird ways and never panned out.
P.S. We need to sign Antonio Garay and Cam Thomas needs to step up again this season. 3-4 D has got to have a bull at nose tackle, and those guys together could be a nasty bull
Spot on! If we were going to rely on the draft that means we are rebuilding? I know one thing for sure and that's "if" Manning is playing at least 80% or his old self the Chargers won't be able to dig themselves into a hole and expect the Broncos to fold at the end of the year...it''ll be over for us. So why are the other teams in the NFL picking up this or that top tier defensive free agent while AJ sits and does nothing? Same old AJ if you ask me! Sure he made some good (IMHO) pick ups on Offense and he did sign some of our own free agents but what the heck is he thinking for the defense?Pete - you aren't a GM but based on AJ's perfomance in the last two years the Chargers could save some dollars and pay one of us 1/2 of his salary to NOT get the team to the playoffs....any of us can at do that!
FOR THE #2 RUNNING BACK! a lot of people r underestimating Battle! i dunno if everyone is looking at his overall in madden or what, but the guy has won games for the cheifs last year and past. hes played like 6 years for the cheifs and i'm sure he knows both the off & defense. Chemistry, i think plays a big part of it{new fullback Mcclain} and playing the div rivals twice a year and being familiar wil help. Obviously Michael Bush or trading for Stewart or even ryan grant, sounds great but won't happen. Money obviously the issue, tipical but count on drafting a running back in the mid rounds.
Dear Fellow Bolts Bloggers...I have had the privilege of spending this week in Denver on business...WTF!!! The local media, the local papers, fans etc. are talking crap like "I wonder who we will play in this year's Super Bowl"... "we will easily win the West, no doubt a sweep"... "I doubt we will lose more than 2 games all year"..are you Freaking Kidding Me!!! I just shook my head over and over, and it is all over their news all day long! COME ON MAN! Manning is great...for a guy who hasn't played a down in over a year, is 36 years old, hasn't had 2 - 3 defensive players dump a few hundred pounds of "hurt" on him in a long time, has to now play in uhhhh weather and on grass in uhhhh weather (not Indy's dome on fake grass with a blistering 72 degrees every game & with no wind). And the Broncos are going to be the national media's sweetheart all year so the pressure to win will add to it all. And they got balls to say stuff like "we will sweep the West"...this is fuel for the Raiders, Chiefs and us...talk about a target on one's back! Yeap, AJ needs to get off his ass and make some more FA buys on Defense...still need the QB eating guy up front...rookies in a draft may be nice for later but we need a Now Guy! We need a quality CB from FA now more than before, Manning will be passing deep all day and we are weak out there (no rush=CB ineffective) so AJ we are waiting!
Sound off for me, do we think the West is rolling over for the Broncos now? Will Manning go all year without injury? Will Norv make it all year or gone early? Will AJ add to the Defense with an impact player or 2 before the draft? Will he trade up in the draft and why?
I wish I had my Chargers hat when I was in Denver :)
I hear you RaiderHater but as much as I hate to admit it the Broncos improved themselves and we are just threading water. No pass rusher our CB's suck we need 1 maybe 2 and most of the FA's we picked up at other teams number 2's picked to be our number 1. I like the Royal pick up and JJ to help cover TE's but for the most part AJ is poison to this team and we aren't going to improve until he's gone. Billy Volek a Bronco as the number 2 are you kiding me...makes sense because "if" Rivers goes down this year we probably won't win many games anyway so AJ is rolling the dice and trying to free up some $ but if he doesn't use it they why??? I'm so frustrated with this team right now and refuse to believe the rhetoric from the Chargers beat writers that this team has improved...show me how!
Forgot to add that all AJ's banking on the other teams not having a quality QB has finally caught up with him. Why improve when you think you've got the only quality QB in a weak divison. My guess is all the turn over AGAIN will result in a slow start and this time unlike all the others Denver will not fold up like a tent and we'll end up second in the division by 2 games. Hope I'm wrong!
I hope you are wrong too! I agree need some "D" in my sandwich!!! AJ needs to show me....i will await judgement until after the draft. A lot happens even after within FA, so we shall see. The battle lies on Norv's hands...if he calls plays "business as usual"...we are doomed. But really, Denver is acting like the Jets did last year (we are going to the Super Bowl guaranteed Blah Blah Blah)....they need a reality check early in the season at least. For once we won't be the media hyped Team, that plays well in our camp. Now they (Bolts) have to earn their place in the ranks, not have it assumed:)

Great to have you back, FB! Always good to get your perspective.
I sure hope that a rookie pass-rusher can make an immediate impact, cuz it looks like that's where we are going here. When you look at it, Barnes had a decent year, and will get better. Shawn Phillips will be healthy, and could return to form, if he can stay healthy. JJ can stop the run, and MIGHT get his sack count up... also, he could provide toughness & veteran experience to a rookie pass-rusher.This all looks ok on paper (sort of), but it doesn't exactly scream "we've fixed our pass rush... onto the next need". And, I thought pass rush was our BIGGEST need. Although, I don't feel like spending a bajillion dollars on Mario Williams would have been wise... why didn't we move on someone esle? Even Wimbley would have been a good choice. Why not get the guy who took out McNeil, and sacked Rivers 4 times last year? Once again.. if you can't beat em', sign em'.
I keep hoping that AJ will pull some surprise rabbit out of his hat, and make a deal that we had "No idea" was going on, and come up with a veteran pass rusher on the sly... but, I know that's probably just wishful thinking.
I have to agree that we won't be the media's darlings so that goes in our favor as players sometimes play better when they feel they've been slighted. Hopefully this years team is different from the past few years where we start weak and finish strong or start okay finish strong but lose the crucial game...if they play consistently through out the season and don't go into their normal slump for a few games then there could be a chance. Remember Peyton is going to have a chip on his shoulder and much to prove so this team can't play the way they have and expect to be close at the end...IMHO if Denver goes up early in the season they will most likely finish that way as well! We need to keep it close and play consistent! ;)
Yeah buddy....you are starting to come around! Pete was worried but I had faith in you! I agree with you on the Peyton thang....but he could be in for a treat playing the West, outside, with new players. It will be interesting and you are right, we need to keep close and not dick around like the usual Norv game (slow then hot or hot then flat then hot BS). Thank goodnes we have been very consistant against Peyton for some time, we need Rivers to return to his old self plus the many new weopons at his disposal and we should be a scoring machine. AJ needs to get some D going pronto though, or every game will be a shoot out!

I just came from a screening of David Cronenberg's "A Dangerous Method," in which Keira Knightley as Sabina
Spielrein kicks and screams and laughs hysterically as she's dragged from a
carriage into the Bürgholzi Mental Hospital to be treated by Michael
Fassbender's Carl Jung.
Yesterday I went to a screening of "Young Adult,"
directed by Jason Reitman from a script by Diablo Cody, in which Charlize
Theron (an old hand at disturbed characters after her serial killer in
"Monster") plays a woman who is acutely depressed, alcoholic, and
self-destructively obsessed with a man she went out with over fifteen years
Laugh, cry, or gasp -- in horror, delight, or incredulity -- but chances
are you won't be bored by Darren Aronofsky's sui generis extravaganza, "Black
Swan." He feels pretty good about it, anyway: he's relaxed, dapper looking with his new
moustache, and cracking jokes as he answers questions at a press conference for the
film at the appropriately rococo, near kitschy lobby of Hollywood's Pantages

Reserve Bank governor Glenn Stevens says Australian banks won't have much trouble achieving capital requirements set out in the new international regulatory framework.
The new financial standards were agreed at the G20 meeting earlier this month.
"For the most part, I think in terms of the capital standards ... I don't think our banks have very much trouble accumulating the additional capital, they are close to the new requirements anyway," Mr Stevens told federal parliamentarians on Friday.
He said the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority had a fairly conservative way of approaching these things.
But he said liquidity standards was an area where there was an issue.
"Basically the new standard in affect requires banks to hold much more in the way of government securities as a high quality liquidity buffer," he said.
"There just isn't enough government debt in Australia for them to do that."
He said Australia was in talks with the Basle committee on how to meet those standards, but Australia wasn't exempt from the standards, as suggested in the media.
"Our standard will meet it in a different way to the average country, in recognition of the fact that there just isn't enough government debt in existence to meet it the normal way," he said.

A man charged with the murder of his 67-year-old Christchurch neighbour last month has pleaded guilty today.
Colin Albert Hoani, 59, appeared at the High Court in Christchurch to admit killing Valmai Jean McFie.
Mrs McFie's body was discovered by a resident outside a city council housing complex in Macgibbon Place, Spreydon about 6.30pm on July 20.
Hoani was found at the complex and arrested soon after.
The Crown today withdrew a charge of assault laid earlier.
Defence counsel Craig Ruane asked for Hoani to be assessed under the Criminal Procedure (Mentally Impaired Persons) Act 2013 before sentencing given concerns over the "nature ... and circumstances of the offence".
Justice Graham Panckhurst remanded Hoani in custody until sentence on October 10.

It's a strange, category-evading rock record, a mystery disc of gravity and low humor, of punk aggression and love-bead contentment; when you try to nail down the band's personality, it won't stay still.
On Neon Bible, the reverb is so big and black that the beat becomes boom andthe orchestral garnish, arranged by Chassagne and Final Fantasy's Owen Pallett, gets pressed to the margins.
More than any previous Sleater-Kinney record, The Woods reflects the classic-rock undercurrent that runs through the punk heroines' live shows.
Many of his best songs have focused on his ambivalence about materialism, but on 808s & Heartbreak, the theme has hardened into schtick.
