For the uninitiated, why Wretch 32?
Growing up I was quite a mischievous kid and everybody called me a wretch. I liked it and it stuck and three and two are my lucky numbers. I chose them to go after something that wasn't deemed so lucky.
What do your kids listen to?
My daughter's two and my son's seven. Hopefully, they're not listening to me, I think I'm a bit too depressing for them. They choose their own stuff: my son's got his little iPad and will just go "Can I buy this?". He doesn't really listen to a whole album. They just buy whatever songs they like and make their own super-album.
Your dad was a reggae DJ. Did he play any tracks that stuck with you?
He used to play a lot of Dennis Brown, a lot of Garnett Silk, a lot of Bob Marley. There was this artist who had a record out who lived around the corner from me. One time he was on Top of the Pops when I was a kid and it was such a massive thing for the community just to go to the shop to buy a pint of milk and see somebody who was on TV. It was such a fascinating thing, to see how people were uplifted by him. I suppose subconsciously it played a big part in what I've done.
Are you still living in Tottenham?
I'm not living there but I'm there a lot. The only place I'll eat is there, the place I get my hair cut is there, I play football over there. I'm very much community-driven. I think that growing up, 90 per cent of my idols were villains, so to speak, and 10 per cent were someone like my dad. I kind of think the more I disappear, the less hope there is for people to see that side of Tottenham.
And it's had a rough time recently, hasn't it, Tottenham? With the riots.
Yeah, I think it's kind of important that I'm quite visual and quite outspoken [about it].
Do you work with any young artists from there?
Just going to buy food, I'll have a 14-year-old come up to me and say, "You can't rap as good as me". I encourage them, I just tell them you've got to work on the material, spend more time in the studio.
What did you say to that kid?
I just said, paint the picture for somebody who doesn't understand this language or this dialect. Most of us have that same story, but it's just about who can tell that story to anybody.
Do you think UK rappers are as ambitious as their US counterparts?
Yeah, I definitely think there's the same drive. When you think of competition, you immediately look to America. But we have rappers like Tinie Tempah, who also has his clothing range. He broadens his horizons: he does have a label, he does have a publishing company, he does have other things, just like myself.
There's quite a bit of grumbling on blogs and more broadly about grime artists selling out. Do you think it's fair of people to criticise others when they start making a bit of money?
I don't think you'll ever have everybody's thumbs up. And I think once you're comfortable with that and you understand that, that's the next chapter of your journey. There are billions of people in the world; why don't you want everyone to hear your songs? Why don't you want to perform at Wembley Stadium? You're not going to get there making records to please 60 people on your estate. It doesn't work like that.

Detroit will finally receive its time in the limelight as the focus of a new prime time TV show, with a controversial focus on crime. This show is cited to be ABC's breakout title this season.
Detroit's Pop Art Princess has been getting around, with successful exhibits in cities such as Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Sydney, Tokyo, and Traverse City…well a girl's gotta début somewhere!! That's right! Opening July 31st at InsideOut Gallery is Niagara's first show in Michigan after ten years!
Here is a random list of art exhibitions being held in and around the Metro Detroit Area. Enjoy!
The beginning of July brought a new law to Michigan making it illegal to read, type, or send text messages while driving.
These innovative shoes are a sight to behold. Imagine the hybrid child of toe socks in combination with water shoes!
Banksy – the world renowned graffiti artist- takes a liking to Detroit! New street art from Banksy has appeared at the Packard Plant after the original four dissipated.
This sight to behold is not a genetic mutation, for this square fruit is indeed real! Farmers in Japan have figured out the optimal way to grow, store, and display melons.
San Francisco had Haight Ashbury… Detroit had Plum Street. This short-lived art community was the conduit of expression for the counterculture of the Motor City.

AbstractThe feasibility of an in-situ, real-time, non-contact system for optically monitoring temperature in the range 25-800C on Si, GaAs, and CdTe-buffered Si/GaAs substrates will be demonstrated. Real-time measurement of thin-film stress and surface reflectivity during deposition on these substrates, including samples provided by NVESD, will also be developed. Temperature measurement will be performed via band-edge thermometry and blackbody radiation analysis, while stress and reflectivity measurement will be made using an etalon-based multiple laser array approach. Data acquisition will be home-pulse triggered, with provisions made for the non-integer shaft-to-stage rotation ratio of V80H MBE reactors.

|This is a discussion on Bubble Play In Low Stakes Tournies within the online poker forums, in the Tournament Poker section; 'C'mon, getting close... Just time bank a bit.... 3/4 of the people left get paid... So close.... Dammit!' This seems to be me an awful lot,
Bubble Play In Low Stakes Tournies
'C'mon, getting close... Just time bank a bit.... 3/4 of the people left get paid... So close.... Dammit!'
This seems to be me an awful lot, and it's really bothering me. I seem to between the top third and the bubble in about half of the tournies I play, and I think there must be a leak in my game here. I rarely get the mincash, with a lot of my wins being bigger, which keeps me +roi at small stakes, but I go out close to the bubble far too much. What can I do to improve my play? I generally play a fairly loose game, but when I get very close to the bubble with a shorter stack I often shut down a lot, especially against fishy opponents who will call my shoves a lot. Sometimes I almost go down to zero in order to limp past the bubble, and I'm wondering if this is a mistake. Should I be attacking medium sized stacks with shoves more before I run down to zero, at what stage should I start to adapt my play for the bubble, and how willing should I be to call shoves on the bubble with a very short stack? Any help? 😤
You really need to have a better game plan, or should I say have a "game plan".
You need to think of a tournament in stages. The early stages (before antes), the middle (antes till the bubble) and late (bubble to first).
Now, you need to make a plan on how to play each section. Some play tight early, then loosen up in the middle. Some play loose early and tighten up in the middle. How you play is dependent on your style. During these first two stages you need to gather chips AND STAY AHEAD OF THE BLINDS.
If you start getting below 20BB you need to start taking more chances.
Personally, I don't worry about the "bubble". I never really think about it until I see we are hand for hand, my main focus is staying ahead of the blinds. Doing this, puts me at the "bubble" with at least 15-20+ blinds and I'm not at risk of being the bubble boy.
Yes, I might bust out early, but that is okay. I'd rather bust out early than play for 2 hours to bust on the bubble with nothing.
You need to set yourself up for success, not just to min-cash. Stay ahead of the blinds and take more chances early.
I do have an idea of how I play throughout the tournament, and I know that it is correct to be much tighter in the early stages of the tourney, and then loosen up later and try to steal the blinds and gain a big stack as the antes kick in and you get less BB. When you get close to the bubble, I know that ICM becomes very important as each extra chip is worth less, and when you are a big stack you need to attack the medium stacks who are bubble aware and who will fold a lot. If you just ignore the bubble, I think that you will be far more likely to bust if you are calling just as wide as in the earlier stages or the tourney. My main provl
*My main problem is that I'm often not sure how much I should be shoving on the bubble when I know that most players are going to fold more, and I'm also not sure if I should allow a 5-10BB stack to go down to almost zero just to get past the bubble. 😕
Yes there is defiantly value in building a big stack by being very tight agressie in the early stages, so that you can bully the medium stacks and be in with a better shot at winning, but chip preservation is also important in tournies. It's the medium to short stack on the bubble that confuses me as well. 😝
The problem sometimes reflects how you are playing early in the tourney.
A lot of people get stuck on the early exits and fear them like the plague and yet its the best chance to double up against mostly aggro fish early.
When I was limping to mincashes a lot this was one of my holes and getting caught up in a flip near the bubble is not always a bad thing,would rather bubble on a chance to go deep than min cash repeatedly and just scrape by.
Since you state you are aggro it could also be a issue of when and how you are getting aggro that could be making you more than not under the sweaty chance of a mincash.
When you say ROI percentage,what are we looking at? 15-25 or higher!
In my experience when you are short-stacked / below average in chips you should focus on getting the min-cash, but without passing up chances of getting back into the tournament.
So many people agree nowadays that big stacks should be putting pressure on medium stacks around the money bubble and there are players that take this advice way too far and get themselves in trouble. There are some good spots for medium stacks to make chips by "allowing" big stacks to pressure them as well!
Yes, you can attack around bubbles and make some chips but no that doesn't mean that suddenly very loose players are going to start folding just because you put them all in.
Good luck to you!
i simply try to ignore the bubble, if your at 10bb dont fold your Ax type hands, carry on trying to look for the blinds + your double up,
if you have dwindled to 5bb then you should of been pushing for your tournament sooner, regardless of the fact you might get called.
Most times im aware of the final table chip stack, this is the chip stack that is needed essentially to guarentee a final table, its not something everybody should look at during a game as it can put the focus on taking too many risks, but if you have a huge lead, you can see how close you are, and it means you can tighten up and start looking where your chips on the table are going to come from.
re: Poker & Bubble Play In Low Stakes Tournies
Most of the poker books are saying that in the tournament play the best players are trying to improve their stack attacking around the bubble, where most of the regular players are tight, specially those with short stacks.
If you have a long time strategy to be a successful tournament player, you may want to loose a bit your strategy, but you must feel comfortable with that, to be in control of your steals and to know which player on the table is vulnerable.
You have to find a medium and keep your stack growing. While you could play tight the beginning of a tournament, and I don't think its wrong, you could also see a lot of flops for a small percentage of your stack. This leads to large stack early.
Every tournament is different. If its a donkey fest with all in after all in, I play tight. It its a tight tournament (table) I will play a lot of 67,78, small pairs, ect... trying to get my stack growing. Whether tight or loose, you need to play the way everyone else is not, there really isn't a "correct" way.
Thanks for all the replies. I'll try to change my play so that when I have a shorter stack I don't pass up opportunities to get back into the tourney (although I really do disagree with the people who suggest that I can just comletely ignore the bubble). I think that I need to try to double up more and be more realistic as to how long I can tank my way into the bubble with a couple of BB. I also need to think about which opponents are going to be really tight on the bubble, and I need to steal from them a bit more. I might also try to loosen up my strat earlier in the tourney so that I don't have these tricky spots near the bubble with a short stack so much, but as I said in the beggining I am a fairly loose player generally as it is. As for watching people on Twitch, I do this a bit, and I remember watching Elky as he bubbled the WCOOP main event on stream. He definately adapted his play a lot for the bubble by tanking and tightening up, and that tourney must have taken at least an hour and a bit to lose 10 out of 200 people on the bubble, but he ended on the bubble as well 😔. Hopefully I can watch a few more streamers in the future to improve my bubble play. Thanks for the help everyone! Hopefully it will make a difference! 😀
just dont get us wrong, by ignore the bubble were not saying completely ignore it, but ignore it in the sense that your not tightening up just to get through it,
as play progresses you see players start to tighten up and naturally you should start loosening ur range against them, they will fold alot more and make it clear when they have something, you will get ur chips from them when they blatently dont have much as they try to squeeze through, once the bubble bursts you really want to tighten ur range unless you are 10bb or less because when bubbles burst it brings forth maniacs trying to get back after playing so tight
I think that most people would agree that when you are down to so few BB that you have no fold equity it's correct to fold a lot of stuff if you know that you are going to make the money if you fold, but even if you doubled up you would still be far below average. I think the main point which I got wrong was that I need o be more aggressive against people who do understand the bubble, an when I have a medium stack I shouldn't pass up opportunities to double up. It makes more sense really I guess when you consider that some people are super tight on the bubble. So I guess you could say I should 'ignore' it a bit more, although I do think that my calling range has to be super tight. As for why I get down to less than 5BB, it might be a case of me trying to slow down for the bubble too soon, even before I could fold my way past it, but sometimes it just happens. I know my push fold game quite well, and I really don't think that's the issue here. Thanks again for all the people who have replied 😀.

Federal MP Clive Palmer will seek approval from the federal government to visit the Christmas Island detention centre.
The Palmer United Party leader says he'll write to immigration minister Scott Morrison to grant him access, saying he wants to ensure the children of asylum seekers are not denied a happy childhood.
"I have always believed that keeping children behind bars was wrong, but the birth of my daughter Lucy last month has renewed by commitment to these kids," Palmer said in a written statement on Friday.
"Whether they took this dangerous voyage with their parents or were born in detention, every child deserves a safe and loving upbringing with a range of experiences, not just the inside of a cell or an exercise yard."
Palmer flew a delegation of his party candidates on a "fact finding mission" to Christmas Island during the federal election campaign last year.
The Palmer United Party advocates allowing asylum seekers to fly to Australia and be quickly processed at airports.

text: Senator Susan Collins wants a better grip on how the stressed economy is affecting the trucking industry in Maine. That's why she made a stop at a trucking company in Hermon today.Barry Pottle, owner of Pottle's Transportation in Hermon, recently invited Senator Collins to have a chat about the state of the trucking industry in Maine. "As he told me several years ago, trucking is really a leading indicator of the economy," says Senator Collins. "When the trucking business is having trouble, that indicates that manufacturers are not producing goods and that product is not being shipped."The Senator got a crash course on the trucking industry, including a tour of Pottle's business where she met the workers and learned a bit more about the business. She said she was impressed with what she saw and Pottle was hoping to hear some encouraging news. "You know it's Washington," says Pottle." "And she's only one lady who can make a difference. You know the Senator really listens to people here in Maine and that's why I've enjoyed listening to her and she's very sincere about our business and our people in the state of Maine."A point of emphasis for the Senator was the pilot program that's allowed trucks to carry up to 100,000 pounds on the interstate, keeping the heavy loads off of the secondary roads.The program is set to expire in mid-December and Collins says extending it could be tough. Senator Barbara Boxer from California has been vehemently opposed to the program. "Why she cares that much about our situation in maine is a mystery to me," says Collins. "It's helped our businesses be more competitive. It's reduced energy use and greenhouse gas emissions and most of all it's improved safety."Pottle is hopeful his voice will be heard in washington. "She never forgets what we've talked about and she's trying to help us out," says Pottle. "And I think one of the things she's going to take back to her office is trying to help us to get some tax incentives so we can buy new equipment and get this economy going."

In the campMature
Inside the camp was not much better then being outside however they were not exposed to the wind which many before them had compared it to the the breath of death. During the ride on the caravan a couple of the wizards had died from the cold, this only furthered Felix's resolve to survive and take a stand for Theadred and its wizards. However he was far to cold to say anything to the guards.
Aria on the other hand was shaking fear of what would happen to her as well as saddened, Felix believed that she had been friends or known one of the wizards. The other wizards who were also on the caravan had seen enough death to be too shaken up by there deaths, but they did however had looks revealing they feared their own future.
"I guess this is the new batch?" Said a whiny but Smarmy voice that sounded like this man spoke mostly through his nose.
"Yup, they don't look like much but Carn be careful not to hurt the red haired on much, our Lord wants him. He also is a bit of a trouble maker but I'm sure you will have no issue dealing with him." Zael smiled a grin filled with contempt.
"Thanks Zael, trust me they won't be any trickery in my camp." Carn replied and Felix could see a gnarled, but very clean scimitar swing into the air, with a hole near the tip of the blade, and a few bits that were serrated. The scimitar itself wasn't very long but it was at least 4 inches thick from edge to edge. The man shouldered it confidently and said a few more words to Zael before he departed.
"Alright you lot, my name is Carn if you haven't already heard! Now around here things are different, I have no problem watching you die, in fact I take pleasure in it!" Carn's voice wasn't very deep nor did it hold much power. But one thing it sure did bring across was this guy was a lowlife maggot who shouldn't be allowed to carry the title of a human being,"Now if your wondering why we don't just execute you lot, that's because there is something in side this glacier, and we want you to find it! If you don't look for it then there will be no food, and no tent and you will freeze to death out here especially by nightfall!" Carn laughed maniacally.
"I think that covers everything, but i feel a little generous, you bastards cross me, and like I said I have no problem watching the light leave your eyes. NOW get a move on your all assigned to tent 31. The suns about set and I have a nice warm fire to attend to!" He barked.
Felix and the others happily complied hoping the tent would be ever so slightly warmer. As they trekked through the snow which had been made very hard to traverse by the many frozen footprints that had been there before them, they saw a few frozen bodies, left their in example. Felix noticed that a soulless stood at every five tents as if in watch. The current residents of camp one looked longingly at the new arrivals hoping to hear of good news but they were quick to notice the defeated faces of Aria, and some of the others. Felix felt his blood boil, he will turn that longing and that defeated look into hope, if only he knew how.
Inside their assigned tent it was quickly apparent that their wasn't much space, and it was not much warmer then the outside. Especially since most of the floor was ice aside for a few mats that had been torn, and worn down. Felix chose a spot near the end of the tent, it was a patch of with shredded bits of hide. He guessed the previous owner of this spot was taking the hides of fallen wizards, it sickened him a little, but he thought if he died he would want one of his friends to take what they needed to carry on, hopefully bearing his dreams.
Aria had taken a Matt beside Felix. Earlier Aria and an older wizard had been to kind to just take it but finally the old man insisted that she take it because her life was more valuable and refused to take the spot, which eventually lead to Aria giving in and taking the spot. Once settled down she turned to Felix who was now looking into the ceiling of the tent lost in his head.
"How long do you think we'll survive?"She asked not really hoping for a response.
Felix shrugged," I don't plan to die, and so should you. The question should be when are we getting out." He replied, making Aria laugh a little, but mostly annoying her.
"I believe your going to be one of the first to get killed the way you act. Its probably better if i keep my distance from you so I won't get killed alongside you." She Snorted before turning over.
Felix felt a little offended but understood what she meant, and dared not to defend himself, it would just be better to come up with a plan before saying anything.

Why we are broke.
Why we are boned.
It was only a $1.2 billion contract."I think for the entire month of December I processed six applications and that was pretty good," Lavonne said.Lavonne said her output in December was good because other employees told News 4 the goal was to process even fewer applications."Our supervisor said if we process one or two of these a month we have done our job," one employee said.Lavonne said they had to come up with ways to pass the time. Employees told News 4 workers are not allowed to bring in a cell phone, pen, or paper."We played Pictionary on a very dry erase board," Lavonne said. "We played 20 questions, we made up games what you did in 1989."Employees also told News 4 boredom reigned because of the lack of work and the restrictions on what workers could bring into the office."You could be completely sane and work there for seven months and leave there and want to check yourself into a mental hospital it was that bad," Lavonne said.

Meeting by chance
David brought the rose from behind his back and presented it to her." After your rude treatment by the clerk I thought you could use a little cheer." Gina knew where the rose came from, a boquet of roses on the front desk." She couldn't stifle a slight smile," You know the way my day is going I'll be arrested for theft." David gave her a wink,"put it in your teeth as you walk by the clerk."
The elegant old elevator hummed as it made it's way up to the third floor. David swiped the card and entered 328. He dropped his two bags inside the door and flopped on the bed. Drifting off to sleep with her lovely face replaying over in his mind.

Hello there...I can understand your concern. from your description it looks like you could be suffering from recurrent folliculitis of the scalp. it is very difficult to control such conditions. first primarily you will need to get investigated to rule out any immunosuppression. so kindly consult a dermatologist for further evaluation.

Recent reviews
Good 3.6 /5 from 113 reviews
The pool and spa was quite nice and made the stay more enjoyable. The actual hotel could use a bit of sprucing up... it seems a bit dated and weary, although not uncomfortable. We also found ourselves "locked out" the one night - coming home after 11 pm. Luckily we found an open door by going around and checking all of them. When we complained in the morning, the receptionist noted there was a sign on the door - however, it was not in English. It would have been nice if the receptionist had mentioned when we went out that evening about the door locking (or the sign had been in English as well as Danish). The breakfast was good and filling.
Decent hotel, but the rooms we got where in the older part and where outdated and needed total refurbishment.

Cronulla chief executive Steve Noyce has revealed ASADA's contentment with the Sharks' level of co-operation and welcomed an NRL investigation into a bank account linked to the club's doping scandal.
Noyce on Wednesday said a high performance unit bank account allegedly operated by Sharks coach Shane Flanagan had been shut down in April, having been opened in 2012.
A report aired on ABC's 7.30 programme on Tuesday night led to speculation as to whether the account could have been used to pay for sports scientist Stephen Dank's services and supplements during the 2011 period which is the subject of an anti-doping investigation.
Noyce strenuously rejected any suggestion linking the account to the supplements programme, adding the account was opened a year after Dank's departure from the club. Flanagan has said the account was used to buy gym equipment - with money raised through functions and golf days - because the football department was not funded well enough to be competitive.
Noyce confirmed the Sharks had no record of any payments to Dank, with NRL boss Dave Smith asking the league's integrity unit to investigate the context in which the account was used.
"I'm not going to raise a concern at this point in time," Smith said. "We just want to get to the bottom of the nature of the account and what it's been used for. It could be simple, it could be innocent, it could be completely normal, and if it's not we'll get to the bottom of that as well."
The Daily Telegraph has reported there was a previous private account used to fund team camps and equipment in 2009 but Noyce said there was nothing suspicious about the use of either account.
"Any funds raised from these two accounts were used solely on the high performance unit," Noyce said. The club and the head coach Shane Flanagan strenuously deny any funds from this account were used in relation to the 2011 supplements program.
"The high performance account was closed in April of 2013. Obviously if an account was opened, in reference to the account last night, in 2012, it's impossible to pay for anything in 2011. The club is not aware of any payment made to Stephen Dank. I have no other opinion to make other than the club did not pay Stephen Dank."
Dank declined to shed any light on whether he was paid for his work at Cronulla. Asked on Wednesday if he was paid off the books, he told the Nine Network: "Mate, you might want to direct that one to the accountants about that one."
Noyce said he had received positive feedback from ASADA in reference to the co-operation of the Sharks players who are part of the interview process. The interviews were due to be completed by August 28, but are now set to extend into September.
"ASADA, we're three-quarters of the way through interviews," Noyce said. I'm personally pleased that the feedback from ASADA has been that our players have come across as both honest and credible.
"That's important for the club and shows a level of co-operation."

Discussion in 'Draft Zone' started by Mr Cowboy, Apr 16, 2008.
I'd be more upset about Jenkins at 22 than Manningham at 28.
Why, Jenkins is one of the top rated CB's and I heard Mayock say he's the one whose most ready to start right now.
I actually have Jenkins rated pretty low. He gave up a large percentage of catches this past season and is noted on a number of draft sites as lacking in ball skills, sometimes locates the ball too late, being inconsistent, and lacking instincts. Those are all huge things for me when I look at a CB. I wish I had all my numbers on Jenkins so I could give a more statistical basis for this, but my laptop got stolen and I never backed up my spreadsheets with all the data and I just don't have the numbers anymore. I think with Jenkins you have a player who's stock has risen so highly because of his athleticism while his actual production and ability may be getting overlooked.
A lot of people like him, but that's just how I evaluate him.
The one who looks a bit overated is DRC, I just saw the TSN Draft Pub that Compares him to Andre Woolfolk from a Couple of years ago, saying that People overlook his Flaws because of his Combine numbers and a good Senior Bowl.
The difference I see in Cromartie and Jenkins is that Cromartie was actually pretty reliable in college. Yes he did play against some lower competition but Jenkins wasn't constantly going against top notch talent either. I don't think that the Senior Bowl performance completely justifies all the hype around Cromartie, but I do think he's a better prospect than Jenkins. Better ball skills, instincts and production give Cromartie an edge in my book. I think a lot of the CBs in this class are overrated, but the ones I would bank on in the first would be Cromartie, Talib and Cason, and I'd be willing to put a strong bet on Terrence Wheatley as a sleeper pick.
Manningham at 28?
I just threw up in my mouth.
Sold!!....Jenkins will be a nice nickel back until taking over a starters spot in '09....Manningham is underrated and will be a better pro player than many think...Johnson is the perfect speed compliment to MB3 and Demps is a football player who makes plays.
I agree with Wheatley, but Talib is a donkey.
While I don't think Jenkins will be an all-pro, he is going to be better than average and should be a good corner for a long time....as long as he keeps his head on straight and focuses on getting better. The skill set is defintely there.
[FONT=Verdana,Geneva,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif][SIZE=-2]"Right away, your kickoff return guy is in place. He makes a team on that alone. ... He's a guy that's physical enough to take on a tackler, but when he gets into the open field he can take it to the house. He's probably not an everydown guy yet. ... He's caught touchdown passes down the middle. He's caught swing passes and beat guys one-on-one. He's caught option routes. He's done a lot of things that most running backs have not. He can go out and play in the slot or line up in the backfield. ... You talk about a good marriage [with Barber]. He could spell him, but you could put them both in the game at the same time. ... We never used him back there [on punt returns]. I don't think it's because he couldn't do it. It's just because we were asking him to do so much. ... Because of his size, he's not going to be a masher [as a blocker]. But in terms of assignments and recognizing blitzes, he's one of the brightest kids that I've ever been around that's a top-line running back. In three years, I think he only had two blown assignments. And he'll stick his nose in there. What would be something he'd have to work on? It would probably be the physical side of blocking. He's got the mental part down. ... His senior year, he was a different running back. Early on in his career, he did not make people miss like you'd think he would. But he's on tape his senior year making a lot of real good players miss. ... He'll hit and spin. He's not a truck. - ECU CO-OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR STEVE SHANKWEILER on Chris Johnson, Tim MacMahon, Dallas Morning News
thats his coach talking about him you seem to be a little mis informed about CJ but it's cool a lot of ppl are.
See I'm not sure that the skill set really is there for Jenkins beyond general athleticism. As someone who didn't have good recognition skills in college I think he'll face a very steep learning curve in the NFL and will not be able to rely simply on his athletic ability to bail him out. Personally I wouldn't expect him to make a real impact for about 4 years or so, and even at that point I don't think he'll be anything beyond an above average player.
Talib is kind of the opposite of Jenkins in my eyes. A player who does have terrific instincts and ball skills and was very productive against top competition. All Talib needs to do is learn to play within his abilities and he can be just as much of a defensive force in the NFL as he was in college.
You may want to re-think that. For sure you would have Johnson in on passing downs, but he would attacking the defense 5 (10?) times more than blocking. You don't pick an RB with pass catching skills like that and not use him. Plus...and this is important...his coach said he missed only TWO blocking assignments in 3 years in college. He will stick his nose in there, he's just not someone you would ever use as a lead blocker.
However, I probably would not take CJ in Rd 1...just seems too high to me.
Sorry to hear that.:laugh2:
I'd go with that too...although I may prefer one of the other WRs if possible. I mostly only saw Manningham catching the deep ball and not much else. I think a guy with his size and with only average or below average speed needs to be more of a technition. It does say something for Chad Henning at QB though.
Timed speed yeah, but he's got great game speed!

The Fond du Lac district attorney is defending one of the stranger plea deals in the annals of Wisconsin drunken driving enforcement history.
Lawrence Schreiber of Muskego, president of Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Wisconsin, had a blood alcohol level around twice the legal limit when he was pulled over in June. Though he was driving a Mercedes-Benz on U.S. Highway 41, Schreiber, 48, later pleaded no contest to operating an aircraft while intoxicated.
The sheriff's chief deputy doesn't like the outcome, but the DA defends it, saying he at least got a countable drunken driving offense on Schreiber's record.
The unusual -- for a non-pilot -- conviction spared Schreiber from a license suspension and from having to install an interlock device on his car. And despite the intention that it count against him if he is ever charged with OWI again, it wasn't on Schreiber's official driving record until a newspaper contacted Division of Motor Vehicles officials.
The Fond du Lac Reporter has the details.

This table is the perfect size for my townhome patio. It was so easy to put together - 2 bolts and you're done. The great thing is that the legs slide like a tray table, so it would be easy to flatten and store or move to another area. The wood is a beautiful, rich color and looks great with the current wrought iron chairs that I have and with a few plants on it. The table has a hole for an umbrella, but I placed it under a small gazebo that I have, so no need for an umbrella at this time. Also, so far with some rain that we've had, it appears that the table might already be sealed, as the rain beads up on it, so it looks like I might not need to spray it at all to keep its nice finish. Great piece of furniture!
Easy to assemble; prompt delivery and love the use an umbrella with it. Very convenient for the purpose I wanted it for. It is compact enough for me to take it with me on my camping trips.

Intel Fail ♦ ♦ ♦ Jai and Maat
Destiny or just bad luck? Jai is about to find out.
Peering back, it appeared Jai had finally lost his pursuers. With that, he slowed his pace and took a few deep breaths before leaning on a nearby alley wall. Sweat dripped from his forehead while pulse raced. Somehow his Armani suit had retained all of the crisp creases from the morning though. It'd been a long, exhausting day, and by the new sounds echoing between the buildings, it wasn't over yet. After glancing upwards as if to ask Why me? with an eye roll, he continued his journey to a more crowded area.
No gun. No phone. Only his badge to his name at the moment. What he needed was a car. Peeking around the corner, eyes settled on a small speedster. Oh yeah, he could hot wire that. But as he made his way over, a woman hopped into the driver's seat. Normally this would have been bad news, but there was one little detail that Jai's ego was glossing over - the fact that his hands were cuffed behind him.
With a forced calm, sparkling smile, he approached. "Excuse me, ma'am. I need to commandeer your vehicle... and um, you." Hearing that come out of his mouth, it wasn't a bad pickup line at all. He'd have to remember that one. "I'm Agent Wilcox and right now, I'm in danger. I'm being chased. My ID is in my pocket and hands are currently cuffed. Do you know how to drive fast?" After the question, a gunshot rang out and hit a nearby metallic pole with a clang. With that, he couldn't wait for an answer and took the liberty of hopping into the passenger seat and ducking down. "Go, go, go!"

It's another point for me this week as yet again nobody correctly guessed where last week's peculiar picture can be found. It's in the back room in Kevin' house.
For this week's prop poser all you have to do is tell us whereabouts on Coronation Street you would find this pencil case (or maybe it's a make-up bag).

Hi, my name is Sam Dawson. I'm an East Yorkshire based vocalist and guitarist providing entertainment for pubs, clubs, weddings and parties, with a professional attitude and a passion for music. I have had many years of performing experience, which has led me to playing some of the biggest events in the region – Freedom Festival, Humber Street Sesh, Galtres Festival (alongside The Stranglers, Maximo Park, Reef) to name a few.
I am largely self taught as a vocalist, but my guitar playing was closely mentored by Richard Silvester, an excellent teacher based in Hull. Since taking lessons, I have studied Professional Music Performance at The ACM in Guildford, graduating with a First Class Honors Degree. My passion for music has led me to where I am now, and I am very grateful for that.
A sample of my set list can be seen below, which contains songs from the 60s right through to modern day classics. For most songs, I make use of some effects pedals to layer different parts and get a 'fuller' sound. Not only does this create a more dynamic performance, it also allows me to 'read the room' – livening things up or stripping things back when necessary. Combined with a large repertoire, this makes for a unique performance each night which is tailored to the audience and venue.
Everything you hear on this site is an accurate representation of what to expect when I perform live – nothing has been 'souped-up' via production wizardry.
To make an inquiry, please find my contact details at the bottom of this page. Thank you!

Yeast copper–zinc superoxide dismutase can be activated in the absence of its copper chaperone

Copper–zinc superoxide dismutase (Sod1) is an abundant intracellular enzyme that catalyzes the disproportionation of superoxide to give hydrogen peroxide and dioxygen. In most organisms, Sod1 acquires copper by a combination of two pathways, one dependent on the copper chaperone for Sod1 (CCS), and the other independent of CCS. Examples have been reported of two exceptions: Saccharomyces cerevisiae, in which Sod1 appeared to be fully dependent on CCS, and Caenorhabditis elegans, in which Sod1 was completely independent of CCS. Here, however, using overexpressed Sod1, we show there is also a significant amount of CCS-independent activation of S. cerevisiae Sod1, even in low-copper medium. In addition, we show CCS-independent oxidation of the disulfide bond in S. cerevisiae Sod1. There appears to be a continuum between CCS-dependent and CCS-independent activation of Sod1, with yeast falling near but not at the CCS-dependent end.

Front Door Halloween Decor
It's fall, ya'll and that means that Halloween is just around the corner! I recently teamed up with 2 other bloggers, Corey at Tiny Sidekick and Sarah at This Sarah Loves to bring you 3 Front Door Halloween Decor Ideas. First I will share my neutral DIY mini pumpkin wreath, and then you can click through to visit my friend's Halloween decor at the bottom of this post.
My favorite thing about this neutral fall wreath is that I am able to have it up for fall, yet with a few little tweaks it easily transitions into Halloween. This wreath was pretty simple to make, and since I already had some of the materials on hand this baby cost me less than $10!

Mini Faux Pumpkins {or paint real ones white}
Mini Faux Pumpkins {or paint real ones white}
Front Door Halloween Decor
The first thing I did was pick up a grapevine wreath for less than $3 at JoAnn's after a 40% off coupon.
I then searched EVERYWHERE for small plastic pumpkins that I could paint white, because I figured that would be the best option. However, I didn't find any that I liked at a price I liked, so I went with real pumpkins instead. I bought a couple bags of mini pumpkins at $2.99 each and then painted them white. Of course, if you want to make a more permanent pumpkin wreath I would recommend finding the fake ones.
I was looking for faux mini pumpkins in October {which you think would be easy to find} but apparently they were mostly sold out. You shouldn't have a problem finding them early in fall though {or afterwards on discount}, especially at craft stores. I found some this year at Walmart for less than $1 each.
So again, I was short on time and super impatient so I went with what I could find locally, which was real mini pumpkins. Sure they will need to be thrown out in a month or two, but they look super cute and I'll still be able to re-use the wreath.
For this reason I used wire and twine to attach the pumpkins to the wreath {no glue} so that I can easily detach them when necessary.
The wire scratched some of the white paint off, so I simply did some touch-ups afterwards. I also tucked some loose moss in between the branches and tied a burlap bow on top. This is what my fall wreath looks like:
How to easily transition the wreath for Halloween:
To get it ready for Halloween I simply wrote on a wood shim chalkboard tag {the same kind I made for our DIY beverage tags}, and tied it to the wreath using twine.
Voila! My transitional Fall/Halloween wreath that didn't require any glue!
