The Flower Without PollenMature
The door closes behind me, and I look around. I'm home. It's 6:32 PM. I blink. Wasn't I sitting in my therapist's office just a second ago? Why am I suddenly here, so much later? It doesn't add up. How did I get home? Instinct? I don't remember any bus ride back.
There are three roses in a glass of water in our shared subsidized housing unit. Odd. I haven't seen them before. I take one out, hold it so as to avoid the thorns, and sniff.
I smell nothing.
Did my brother buy these? Did someone send us these?
There's a receipt on the counter. For four fake roses, courtesy of the dollar store. Well, where's the fourth? Wait - is that my name on the receipt? Was someone else using my debit card?
I open my purse, and dig out my wallet. I open it, to check for my debit card. However, another receipt falls out and onto the table. It's from the post office.
I've never had trust issues with my brother before.
Who could have done this?
No, wait - the postal receipt is time-stamped for twenty minutes ago. And the roses, thirty six minutes ago.
I can smell the Kraft dinner in the microwave.
The laptop, on the desk, is still on. So is the old bubble-jet printer beside it, which oddly enough has been left on. A document is open.
Dearest Fabian,
I love thee like a summer rose. But to express it, I see but a likeness untrue to what I feel. I see something superficial. Something fake. A flower without pollen. A rose without fragrance. Such is not as true as my love for you.
Your Secret Admirer,
Well, now I'm confused. Clearly, it was printed. So, I have to ask myself, why is my brother writing secretive love letters to some guy? Wait - some guy... Miranda's Fabian!? Hmmm... Leone. Where have I heard that name before?
No! Never! No!
I clear the text from the unsaved file, and then I close the program.
I no longer believe in love! Love has ruined me. Love is the attention I don't need! Love is why I used to cut myself! Love is why she used to cut me! She wanted love!
I'm not. I'm not. I'm not going crazy!
She can hear me. She can always hear me. But now I know her name. Leone. And names are powerful things.
I scream.
And then I hear my brother, turning his key in the locked door behind me.

All reader reviews by Steve
Eating at Incanto is without exception one of the most pleasurable dining experiences to be had anywhere in London. Being a self-professed foodie, I have eaten out extensively in the West End and around where I live in the Pinner/Harrow/Hatch End area.
The food is excellent and surpasses what I would expect from a local restaurant. I was surprised to read from an earlier review that the portions were small. I ordered a Cured Meat Platter and a vegetarian Lasagne and ended up having to reluctantly leave some of both so that I could fit in dessert. The sweets are well worth saving room for, the baked Raspberry and Mascarpone Cheesecake is one of the bset that I have ever tasted.
Good food is often matched with poor service and I am happy to say that this is not the case with Incanto. My partner can only eat gluten-free and our waitress took time out on a busy night to explain the options, and even arranged with the chef to adapt a meal to suit us.
All in all, a very good experience, and we shall certainly come back to Incanto again.

Combining rich personal accounts from twelve veteran anthropologists with reflexive analyses of the state of anthropology today, this book is a treatise on theory and method offering fresh insights into the production of anthropological knowledge, from the creation of key concepts to major paradigm shifts. Particular focus is given to how 'peripheral perspectives' can help re-shape the discipline and the ways that anthropologists think about contemporary culture and society. From urban Maori communities in Aotearoa/New Zealand to the Highlands of Papua New Guinea, from Arnhem Land in Australia to the villages of Yorkshire, these accounts take us to the heart of the anthropological endeavour, decentring mainstream perspectives, and revealing the intimate relationships and processes that create anthropological knowledge.

That's entertainment: Stars come out as China's richest man announces $8 billion film park
By Jane Lanhee Lee and Matthew Miller
QINGDAO, China (Reuters) - China's richest man, property developer Wang Jianlin, raised the curtain on a planned 50 billion yuan ($8.17 billion) "motion-picture city" which he described as the biggest-ever single investment in the movie and television industry.
Property developer Wang Jianlin, 58, founder of Dalian Wanda Group, was surrounded by Hollywood stars John Travolta, Nicole Kidman and Catherine Zeta-Jones on Sunday as he launched his most ambitious project yet in the picturesque coastal city of Qingdao.
When completed in 2017, the Oriental Movie Metropolis will boast 20 sound stages, including the world's first underwater studio, a massive convention and exhibition complex, a sprawling shopping mall with an indoor amusement park and seven resort hotels.
The project also will include a yacht club with 300 berths.
"The Oriental Movie Metropolis is a major step in China's strategy to become a global cultural powerhouse," Wang said.
It was not only crucial to the development of Wanda's entertainment business, he added, but also an important step for building China's cultural brand.
For Wang, who was named by Forbes as China's richest man with personal wealth of $14 billion, the Qingdao project also represents the latest move by Wanda Group to parlay its real estate and shopping mall development into a leisure and entertainment empire.
Wanda Group, which is privately held, has invested in 72 Wanda Plazas across China, along with 40 five-star hotels. The company also owns 6,000 movie screens, 62 department stores and 68 karaoke centers. Continued...

Chargers Win Despite Continued Struggles On Special Teams
As I write this on Sunday evening (while watching the embarrassment that is the Dallas Cowboys), I can't imagine any scenario in which San Diego Chargers special teams coordinator Steve Crosby should have a job by the time this is posted tomorrow morning. He simply has to go.
San Diego (4-5) was much improved for the second week in a row, defeating the Houston Texans (4-4) at Reliant Stadium 29-23 on Sunday afternoon, notching the team's first back-to-back victories and its first win on the road.
Quarterback Philip Rivers continues to show that it doesn't make a bit of difference to him who he's throwing to, posting up gaudy numbers (17-23, 295 yards, 4 TDS and 1 INT) despite throwing to receivers you probably hadn't heard of (and whose names you certainly can't pronounce).
Undrafted rookie free agent Seyi Ajirotutu caught four passes for 111 yards and two touchdowns while backup tight end Randy McMichael only needed two catches (for 23 yards) to reach paydirt twice, once on a spectacular one-handed grab.
Despite all of this good, Crosby and his special teams unit remain the elephant in the locker room for the Chargers. It's time for it to be dealt with before it costs the Bolts another game, as it very easily could have against the Texans.
Special teams were miserable yet again on Sunday, starting from the opening kickoff. Fullback Jacob Hester inexplicably decided to field a ball that was clearly headed out of bounds for a Houston penalty. His momentum carried him out of bounds (you know, where the ball was going) forcing San Diego's offense to begin at the four yard line -a 36 yard loss had the ball been spotted at the 40 following a kick out of bounds.
Then, in perfect replication of last week, the Chargers' offense went three and out and Mike Scifres saw his fifth punt of the season blocked, although this one wasn't recorded as such because the ball managed to cross the line of scrimmage before being pounced on by the Texans.
One thing I'm sure of: Scifres probably would have preferred that his punt had been cleanly blocked for two reasons. First, his personal average now includes a one-yard punt which is a big dent in his statistics. More importantly, Texans running back Arian Foster took the ball on the next play eight yards and sauntered untouched for a touchdown and an early 7-0 lead. At least if it had been blocked it might have only gone for a two points rather than seven. Regardless, it's ugly.
With the Chargers heading into a bye week, now is the time for the plug to be pulled on Crosby as special teams coordinator. The off week would allow for the necessary adjustments and scheme changes to be made before the Bolts face the Broncos on Monday Night Football in two weeks.
On Sunday, the continuation of Philip Rivers' prolific season bailed out more blunders from the Chargers' special teams unit. He just shouldn't have to do it again.
What I Liked, Besides Finally Winning on the Road
Ajirotutu Who?
A rookie from Fresno State finally put up big numbers for the Bolts on Sunday, but it wasn't running back Ryan Mathews. Undrafted fre agent Seyi Ajirotutu made his case to remain on the roster when Vincent Jackson returns, but the rest of the Chargers' receiving corps stepped up on Sunday as well. With Antonio Gates, Malcolm Floyd, Legudu Naanee and Jackson all out, Rivers spread the ball around to eight different receivers, Ajirotutu stepped up in a big way. On top of his four catches for 111 yards, the rookie came up with a huge grab on third down that kept the eventual go-ahead drive alive.
Red Zone Defense
Sure, the Arian Foster (27 carries, 127 yards, 2 TDs) put up big numbers on Sunday, but the Chargers defense buckled down when it mattered most. When the opposing team's kicker has three field goals under 30 yards (27, 21, 25), it means that the defense is coming up with big stops inside the 20. Combine that with a huge stop inside the 20 on 4th down to start the fourth quarter and San Diego's defense stepped it up inside the red zone. That was huge for the Bolts in a close game.
Finally Forcing a Turnover
It had been a long time coming, but the Chargers defense finally managed to force a turnover and it couldn't have come at a better time. Paul Oliver's fourth quarter interception of Matt Schaub was the first forced turnover for San Diego in five games and gave the the Bolts their first road victory of the year.
What I Didn't Like, Besides The Obvious
Ball Security
It's hard to fault Philip Rivers after another incredible performance, but the Chargers signal caller could have avoided his third quarter interception. More bothersome, however, was Ryan Mathews putting the ball on the ground yet again. San Diego managed to win a game despite losing the turnover battle, but it shouldn't count on being able to do it too many more times. Protecting the football is the first step toward winning a football game.
The Chargers were flagged six times for 62 yards on Sunday, but two of those were pass interference calls on Quentin Jammer when lined up against Andre Johnson that kept Houston drives alive. Yes, Johnson is one of the best receivers in the game despite his ankle injury. But this team, and Jammer in particular, need to be more disciplined moving forward.
Around the AFC West
The Chargers did themselves a favor by winning on Sunday, keeping a fifth-straight AFC West crown within reach. With the Broncos on a bye following last week's lost to the 49ers in London, the only other game involving AFC West foes was an overtime thriller in Oakland between the Raiders (5-4) and Kansas City Chiefs (5-3). With the Raiders winning 23-20 on a Sebastian Janikowski field goal, the division remains wide open. Although the Bolts sit in third place, four remaining divisional games (including a match up with the Broncos in two weeks) keep San Diego in the thick of the hunt.
Sound Off
Should special teams coordinator Steve Crosby retain his job, or should he be sent packing by Chargers management? Is a two game win streak reason enough to believe that this team can keep it together, or was the early season hole just too deep this year? Is this team a legitimate playoff contender? Sound off below.

There are stones with human heart
A stone journey in Aluma Kindergarten
Kibbuts Affeck
On a reainy day we went hiking, looking for stones
We went on the sones
We climbed om the stones
We studied the stones...
Wow, this stone is heavy and even all of us could not move it...
This is so interesting...
We checked it very closely
And from far away
And very very close
We found a stone bridge
We brought all the stones that we found to our class
We start carving
This is great!
We used our imagination
We decided to add a flowerpot
and plant an herb from our herbs garden in it.
happy and blooming holiday!
From the children of Aluma kindergarten

Deputies want answers in robbery near assistant principal's after-prom party
by: Richard Elliot Updated:
FAYETTE COUNTY, Ga. - Fayette County deputies continue to track down leads as they try to apprehend the eight or nine men who robbed four people at gunpoint outside the home of an assistant high school principal early Sunday morning.
Investigators said the four current and former Sandy Creek High School students were attending an after-prom party at the home of assistant principal Shannon Lain when the gunmen robbed them in the street outside the house. They said the group fired several shots as they ran away. Luckily, no one was hurt.
The mother of one of the victim's spoke with Channel 2 Action News and said one gunmen held a weapon to her son's head as he robbed them all of cash and cellphones. She requested that we not identifiy her or her son.
"I'm very angry," she said. "As a mom, you want to protect your children. I'll get over it, but I'll never be the same. My sense of security is different now."
Her son took to Twitter after the assault and tweeted, "life is a precious thing to have." He also tweeted, "helplessness is one of the most detrimental emotions to the human psyche."
The victim's mother worries her son's only memory of his senior prom will be this robbery.
"His memory of prom and probably his most memorable thing for senior year will be the night this all happened," she said. "It'll be a negative memory that stays with him more so than a positive memory. I think he'll get over it in time, but it's just going to take time to get over it."

Summary for peptidase A28.001: DNA-damage inducible protein 1
|MEROPS Name
|DNA-damage inducible protein 1
|Other names
|DDI1, Rings lost protein (Drosophila melanogaster), Rngo protein (Drosophila melanogaster), VSM1 g.p. (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)
|Domain architecture
|MEROPS Classification
|Clan AA >> Subclan (none) >> Family A28 >> Subfamily A >> A28.001
|DNA-damage inducible protein 1 (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), Uniprot accession P40087 (peptidase unit: 210-324), MERNUM MER0030084
|Identifier created: MEROPS 9.5 (1 July 2011)
|Catalytic type
|Not yet included in IUBMB recommendations.
|Preparation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ddi1 protein in a baculovirus system was described by Perteguer et al. (Perteguer et al., 2013).
|Inhibitor comments
|HIV proteinase inhibitors show different levels of inhibition in a complementation assay: Ddi1 variants from different organisms also show different levels of inhibition by these inhibitors (White et al., 2011). HIV proteinase inhibitors also inhibit recombinant enzyme (Perteguer et al., 2013).
|The tertiary structure of the Ddi1 protein from Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been solved and the peptidase domain shows a fold very similar to that of retropepsin. The active form is a homodimer (Sirkis et al., 2006). The Asp-Gly-Thr-Ala motif around the active site aspartic acid is conserved between Ddi1 and retropepsins. The substrate binding groove in Ddi1 is wider allowing bulkier substrates to bind. Additional domains that flank the peptidase domain are involved in the binding of ubiquitinated substrates and the proteasome and Ddi1 is also known as a 'ubiquitin receptor'. There is an N-terminal ubiquitin-like (UBL) domain and a carboxy-terminal ubiquitin-associated (UBA)domain (Sirkis et al., 2006). The structure of the peptidase domain from human DDI1 has also been solved (PDB entry 3S8I).
|Biological aspects
|The peptidase domain (RVP) is required for dimerization and the ubiquitin-like and ubiquitin-associated domains are required for checkpoint regulation, including rescue of the pds1-128 checkpoint mutant, and enrichment of GFP-Ddi1 in the nucleus. Mutation of the active site Asp220 abolishes rescue of the pds1-128 mutant, but has no effect on dimerization. The UBA domain is important for t-SNARE binding and undergoes phosphorylation on Thr346 and Thr348 (Gabriely et al., 2008). Ddi1 is involved in the turnover of a number of proteins including the the F-box protein Ufo1. F-box proteins bind the core SCF components of the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases, which in turn control the cell cycle and cyclin degradation. Ufo1 is unique in containing a domain with multiple ubiquitin-interacting motifs, with which it interacts with Ddi1, but only when Ufo1 is ubiquitinated. Deleting these motifs increases the stability of Ufo1 and arrests the cell cycle (Ivantsiv et al., 2006). Ubiquitinated endonuclease Ho also binds Ddi1 and is then exported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm where the complex binds to and is degraded by the proteasome. Ho is important for switching between yeast mating types (Kaplun et al., 2005). Another binding partner and potential substrate of Ddi1 is Pho81p, which is an inhibitor of the cyclin-cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) complex Pho80p-Pho85p. Ddi1 and Rad23p probably cooperative as negative regulators in the PHO pathway, which regulates expression of phosphate-responsive genes such as PHO5 encoding repressible acid phosphatase (Auesukaree et al., 2008).
|Ddi1 was initailly identified as a negative regulator of constitutive exocytosis, because gene disruption leads to increased protein secretion (Lustgarten & Gerst, 1999; White et al., 2011).
|Pharmaceutical relevance
|The enzyme from Leishmania parasites (and perhaps others) may be potential drug targets. There is evidence that this enzyme is a target for HIV-proteinase inhibitors that are shown to reduce Leishmania infections (White et al., 2011)

THE first person Nathan Tinkler approached when he first wanted to enter the racing industry was fellow billionaire Gerry Harvey.
Harvey on Thursday night recalled his very first encounter with a young Tinkler, and how the young mining magnate eventually ''did everything exactly the opposite to what I told him''.
''The first time I met Nathan was when he came to see me before he had bought a horse,'' Harvey told The Daily Telegraph.
"I said to him, 'what are you here for?', and he said, 'I want to talk to you because you've been in the horse business a long time, and you might be able to give me some advice'.
"I said, 'OK, I'm going out to see some trainers at Warwick Farm now, do you want to come along?'
"He said, 'yeah, I'll come', and we ended up spending three or four hours together. I spoke to him about this and that and the next thing.
"Maybe he was thinking, 'whatever he's has done, I'll do the opposite, and show him how good I am'.
"I told him I never understood why he did what he did.
"Anyway, he's lived to regret it, he's put more than $200 million into the horse industry.
"He was a stimulus package for the horse industry — the horse industry in some ways owes him a lot of gratitude.
"In racing, he's made a lot of enemies, yet he's thrown more money in than anyone has — he's certainly put in more money than anyone else has in such a short period of time.''
Harvey opted to take over Tinkler's mounting debt, and figured "I was easier to deal with than the bank''.
Asked if he considered Tinkler's roller-coaster ride in the racing game a success, Harvey said: "As he points out, he had stallions Husson and Casino Prince, then he had All Too Hard, which now stands at Vinery, and he's got Lope De Vega, who could be a very good (stallion). He also had a number of very good racehorses.
"You have to say he's been successful. He's had success for a period of time. But now that period of time has passed and he's out of the business.
"I didn't have to tell him in the end. He knew himself, and he said, 'I shouldn't be in this horse business. I have to get out'. As painful as it might be, all these horses had to go, all these studs had to go, he knew that I knew that, and anyone who has watched this sorry saga knows that.''
The debt Tinkler owed Harvey was just under $40 million, which will easily be wiped when 560 of Patinack's horses — along with five spelling and stud farms — all go under the hammer at Harvey's Magic Millions sale on the Gold Coast at the end of next month.
Originally published as Harvey: "In the end, Nathan knew he had to go"

DENVER -- The Colorado Rockies may be playing meaningful games in September for the first time in more than a decade.
Matt Holliday homered, doubled and drove in three runs, and the Colorado Rockies finished off a sweep of the Washington Nationals with a 10-5 win on Sunday, clinching at least a .500 mark on Sept. 1 for the second time since 1996.
"Right now we're playing pretty well," Holliday said. "If our pitching continues to give us a chance, our offense is going to be strong down the stretch."
The Rockies finished off a seven game homestand against Pittsburgh and Washington, two teams well under .500, at 4-3. Things looked bleak after losing three of four to the Pirates, especially when they trailed the Nationals 5-1 in the ninth inning in the series opener Friday night.
But then Holliday hit a two-run homer, sparking a five-run fally in the ninth inning that gave the Rockies a 6-5 win.
Colorado heads out for a six-game road trip to San Francisco and NL West-leading Arizona on Monday.
The Rockies (67-63) have four more games before Sept. 1. They've been at or above .500 just once since 1996, when they were 69-65 in 2000. But that year, they were already 8½ back in the NL West and 9½ games off the pace in the wild-card race.
After Sunday's win, Colorado was 3½ games behind San Diego for the wild card, and 6½ games behind Arizona in the NL West.
"We're just trying to find a way to be one run better than the other from here on out," Rockies manager Clint Hurdle said.
Elmer Dessens (2-1) gave up a run and three hits in six innings for his first Colorado win.
Holliday and Todd Helton had three hits each, and Troy Tulowitzki drove in three runs for the Rockies. Chris Iannetta, called up from Triple-A Colorado Springs late Saturday night, went 2-for-5 with an RBI in his return.
Dessens helped himself at the plate, walking twice and scoring on Kaz Matsui's two-run double in the third inning to go along with his best start with Colorado. In his previous two starts for the Rockies, he lasted 4 2/3 innings.
After giving up a run in the first inning, Dessens found a groove, retiring 15 of the next 17 batters, including the last 10 he faced. It was Dessens' first win as a starter since April 25, 2004, with Arizona against San Diego.
"I felt pretty good after the first inning, and then we came out and got some runs," Dessens said. "I relaxed and kept my pitching count down. When you have a big lead, you focus and throw down in the zone."
The Rockies sent 11 batters to the plate in the third inning and scored six runs, highlighted by Holliday's 24th homer of the season, a two-run shot that made it 9-1 and chased starter Joel Hanrahan.
All 10 Colorado runs were scored with two outs.
Hanrahan (3-2) struggled to find the strike zone in the second inning, leading to two Rockies runs. Hanrahan walked the bases loaded, and Tulowitzki singled home Ryan Spilborghs. Hanrahan walked Holliday to make it 3-1, but he escaped further damage when he got Todd Helton to foul out on a 3-2 count.
"He just had a very rough outing. He couldn't throw strikes," Nationals manager Manny Acta said. "He couldn't even throw strikes to the pitcher, which really hurt him."
Ryan Church and Austin Kearns tried to rally the Nationals after Ramon Ortiz relieved Dessens. Church hit a two-run homer in the seventh and Kearns had a two-run double in the eighth that made it 9-5. Kearns was stranded at second when reliever Matt Herges got Church to fly out to right field to end the eighth.
Ryan Zimmerman gave the Nationals a 1-0 lead with a two-out, solo home run in the first inning. The Rockies tied it in the bottom of the inning on Helton's two-out single that scored Holliday from second base.
"Zim got it started and I think we all thought that we were going to have a better day," Kearns said. "We just couldn't get anything going."
Zimmerman's 21 home runs are a career high. ... Holliday extended his hit streak to 16 games -- a career best -- with a double in the first inning. His is the longest current hitting streak in the majors. ... Tulowitzki's single in the second inning gives him a career-high 11-game hitting streak. ... Helton has a .394 career average against the Nationals/Montreal Expos organization.

For the 3-0 Miami Dolphins, it's only fitting their next game be their toughest test yet—a Monday Night showdown against the New Orleans Saints in the Superdome. Led by Drew Brees, the Saints figure to give Miami their most difficult task thus far on both sides of the ball.
"Well, you look at them statistically, their total offense and total defense—they're in the top 10 in the league in both categories, which is very, very impressive," Dolphins head coach Joe Philbin said during his show with The Finsiders this week. "Their scoring defense has been outstanding. They have a great quarterback and they're a very well coached football team throughout offense, defense and special teams. It's no question we're going to have to make some strides in improvement over the course of the week."
One of those strides will likely have to be in the area of pass rush, as the Dolphins struggled to pressure Atlanta Falcons' quarterback Matt Ryan last weekend. Brees will give Miami's defense all it can handle plus some on Monday night.
"He's just got great command of that offense," Philbin said. "I believe he and Coach Payton have been together, I think this must be about their eighth season together if I'm not mistaken. So they have a lot of history together. [Brees] knows the system very, very well. He knows their personnel very well. And he's a very good decision maker."
Ryan Tannehill has proved to be a good decision maker himself over the first three games, excelling against teams' blitz packages and coming up big in situations where Miami has needed him to do so the most. Monday night will be another challenge for Tannehill, as New Orleans' complex and top-10 ranked defense can cause issues for opposing offenses if everyone isn't on the same page.
The Saints' defensive success is orchestrated by defensive coordinator Rob Ryan, who Philbin has gone up against several times over the past.
"I've coached against him in a couple different spots," Philbin said. "And he's done a very, very good job wherever he's been. He's very multiple, so that's number one. You can't say, 'well, he's just a 3-4 guy' or 'he's just a 4-3 guy'. And he's very complex in the backend. He's not always going to press man-to-man every snap. He's going to give you a variety of coverages. Our quarterbacks and receivers are going to have to be on the same page. And then he has a very good pressure package, so he's a very good coach."
Going into a rowdy Superdome against Brees and the Saints may be a tall order, but it's also an excellent opportunity for this Dolphins' team to continue to prove to skeptics everywhere they are the real deal.

monumental win!!Been going to games since I was a kid,nice to see a great team in the making..
Getting ready for them fishes. lol !!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think the Dolphins should come out with a different set=up every quarter to help throw off the Saints team. I doubt if they are equipped for this, but I always thought it was a good idea for a team to be able to mix it up at a different level and dumbfound the opposition. Oh well it was just a suggestion. GO DOLPHINS!
Not expecting the phins to beat the saints at their house on MNF, but if they do. Wow, that would be a huge statement.
I think the Dolphins play the Saints well. They will give the Saints a game to remember, no doubt. Keep it simple, keep it tight in the middle, and screen the defense a few time to keep the linebackers and safeties up close. Draws, mis-directions, read options, and some quarterback roll-outs. On defense, tag the backs and tight ends on the line of scrimmage, physical , physical, physical, play the pass by dropping back, try not to send blitz packages against the Brees, that's all your going get it, air under the ball and big plays from their offense. I would like to see instinct from the linebackers on tight end outs, look at his eye, as soon as you see the concentrated look , cut the route, you'll be in the end zone, ( take a shot, you may be surprised at how many picks you'll get. Get low behind the line on crossing patterns so the quarterback can't see you and then make the cut before the ball is released, you need to play on instinct. Enough of this coaching crap, I'm not even a good football player, go fins, good luck and play hard.
During the summer, I looked at these first five games on the schedule, and dreamed of being 3 and 2 coming out of it. Well that's obviously already happened after just three games. But the most important of those 5 games are still ahead of us. Of course we would love nothing more, than to win them both, but if we can come out of it at least 1 and 1, that would make us 4 and 1 and still very respectable. Even if we lose them both (God forbid), the league still has to take us seriously. We could be on the verge of something very special here, and it makes being a Dolphin fan, just too sweeeet!!!…..GO PHINS!!!
we must not be vanilla in this game. We also cant be predictable. If we are either the saints will eat our lunch!! Go Phins
We need to get off to a fast start, and not play from behind. We should go no huddle at the start just to get the defense on their heels. Instead of them dictating the game, we should dictate how they play us. And for Goodness sake go deep to Wallace a few times this game. Make them fear the long ball that will soften up coverage even if the ball is incomplete, maybe you can draw a PI on the defense. Keep them from dropping that safety in the box, and that should open up some running lanes for our QB. Go 3 and 4 wide this game keep them out of their blitz packages. On defense you double Graham with a LB and a safety over the top, and you trust your CB's to go man to man against these WR's, keep an eye on Sproiles out of the backfield, and have some DL meetings at the QB….. I am not scared of going into a hostile environment and coming away with a win, we've been there and done that twice this year. Fins vs. Saints it should be a blast, R. Tann this is your coming out party…. Light them up for 6 TD's.. Fins4Life!!!!
miami dolphin will take the saint for a run by win this game
Unlike some of the commenters below, I do expect to beat up on the Saints. WHY NOT? We have shown slow-but-steady improvement from week to week, and if that trend continues, I believe we are capable of giving them more than they can handle.
Go DOLPHINS, fins up ^^ Dolphins 31 Saints 24 Miami goes to 4-0 with yet another tough road win…..
Go DOLPHINS, fins up ^^ Dolphins 31 Saints 24 Miami goes to 4-0 with yet another tough road win…..

In the past 18 months, online brokers have faced a stunning loss of market capital, shrunken trading volume, skittish retail investors, industry concentration and competition from the bulge-bracket investment houses.
Yet the top five online traders have managed to survive to the point where, rather than adding to the pile of dotbomb wreckage, they have become takeover targets themselves.
Datek Online Holdings, the fifth largest pure online trading company, was auctioned off this week and the bidding was so brisk that the eventual winner is expected to pay upwards of $1.4bn (£975m), 50% more than analysts thought Datek would fetch just a few months ago. Datek's customers are the committed online types, individuals who trade actively and are looking for fast execution at inexpensive prices.
The bidding included most of Datek's major rivals, anxious to add its 850,000-plus customer accounts to their own client bases. Details will not be known for several days because the bids are under seal, but E*Trade, Ameritrade and Toronto-Dominion Bank were involved in the bidding, analysts believe. There was even early interest from Bank of America and Wells Fargo.
Datek's auction comes when the environment for online traders is hardly hospitable. Trading volume industry-wide has plunged by more than 50% from its peak. During the first quarter of 2000, number one Charles Schwab's average online account traded 2.87 times but dropped to 1.21 by the last quarter of 2001. Ameritrade fell from 10.8 average trades per account in the heyday to three during the final period last year.
Datek is averaging about 83,000 trades a day, 55% fewer than during the peak years when retail investors went wild riding the bull market on Wall Street. Bear Stearns reckons online trading volume declined to 32% of retail trades during the fourth quarter of 2001, down from 35% a year earlier as the bricks-and-mortar brokers garnered back a slice of the retail trading pie they lost during the market peak in 1999 and 2000.
The online brokers' survival tactic in tough times is simple: improve technology to cut costs and provide better customer service while going after new customers through acquisition and internal growth, so that everything is in place once the market turns back up.
'There is a huge focus on account growth,' says Merrill Lynch analyst Sean Chin. 'The trick is to acquire accounts in an economically attractive way.' At $1.2bn, Datek's suitor would be paying a pricey $1400 per account. Schwab's market value is higher, about $2500 per account, but it caters to higher-end customers, has a full service discount broker and the largest online account base.
The willingness to bid up Datek is a big vote of confidence that Wall Street is expecting better days ahead.
One encouraging sign is that even as volume stays low, the number of investors signing up for online accounts grew to 19m at the end of last year, a gain of 1.6m.
The bigger online brokers have managed the difficult balance of cutting costs while improving customer service. Many, like Schwab, snapped up small, niche rivals at inexpensive prices when the market was at its weakest. A recent survey by Barron's Magazine found many have improved service and delivery techniques.
'The online brokers who have survived the latest round of consolidation are offering more and better services to investors,' said Barron's, which gave eight of the 22 services a high four-star rating.
Forget back to the future. America's big online brokers are looking forward to the past.

I'm hoping you didn't think my Florida recap posts were over because believe me, we are just getting started party people. Sorry not sorry. It's just that I keep finding really important pictures that need to be posted on here because I try to fill this space with only the most beautiful appropriate things.
And no, I wasn't posing as a witch.
After looking at all of our photos it really drives home one fact -- I should really put makeup on and do my hair. I'm like a dirty slick willy in all of these Florida pictures but such is life I guess. Enough about me though, lets talk about how shuffleboard saved Lamar Odom's life. Now I know what you are thinking - "oh no, another tabloid exploiting Lamar's drug and prostitute addiction which somehow rescued his marriage!" but no, I'm just here to say it was in game two of Shuffleboard that I dedicated the round to Lamar and "by coincidence" he made a miraculous recovery within hours. These 90 year old people were onto something when they discovered this life saving game. I'm still waiting on my thank you letter from him, but I'll let you know when it comes in. I'm expecting 5-7 days from the publishing of this post, mail time ya know? Those swans are slow these days.
Back to shuffleboard though. We played it. The end.
To rejuvenate our youth we made our way to the tiki bar and purchased these cute little monkey coconut heads because everybody needs a monkey coconut head in their life.
Those heads somehow grew bodies suddenly, awkward and scary I know.
It is now at the point in the post where I post beach pictures that are supposed to appear that they were taken the same day but guess what - I'm a liar. These are definitely from a different day, it's just that I don't know what day it was so I am plugging them in here because YOLO [and because what is a Florida post without some beach shots].
To end the day we headed up to Jupiter Inlet to eat at U-Tiki Beach which was hands down the best meal and experience of our trip. If you are in the Palm Beach area, you definitely need to check this place out. The filet medallions and u-tiki potatoes are seriously like eating gold. Not that I've actually eaten chunks of gold but I can imagine it's a glorious experience. Maybe a little crunchy actually now that I think about it so scratch that...just take my word about the filet and potatoes. The restaurant sits on a marina and overlooks a pretty little lighthouse which makes the ambiance on point, especially for photos which is why I took five hundred.
And that concludes day 3 of our adventures in paradise. Only 1-2 more posts to go and it's a wrap which means one thing - time to plan another vaca ;)

Wow, I can't help but feel like this bent-over-on-the-bed posture is going to obliterate my spine when I'm 50...
Lying on my side doesn't feel as good, but I suppose its better. Now all the pressure is on my right elbow though... is this going to wreck my elbow too?
Humans are so fragile. Whoops, I just spelled eblow instead of elbow. Better go back and fix it. What is an eblow anyway? I mean, what would an eblow even be, if it existed? I imagine it'd be some sort of... internet flute app? eBlow, perhaps?
I love Cage the Elephant. They have so many great songs. Maybe 6... oww. iTunes just switched to Trivium. Super loud metal. Man, Brandon's headphones are really good! I'm glad I decided to steal them while he's sleeping. I'm sure he won't mind, or even know about it.
I find it hilarious how I hate rap, but I listen to guys in their twenties and thirties screaming and growling to microphones... and I LOVE it. Insanity at its finest, right there.
Ah, geez, I just found out that Brandon's head was right by my elbow. One of the downsides of these sleepovers... he's supposed to sleep in the other room, but sometimes we watch movies and he just passes out in here. Whenever I fall asleep, I tell people that I "passed out". It makes it sound like I made an effort to stay awake.
Ah, the guitar solo is boring. I need some good music. How about some Taylor Swift? Yessssss... I love Taylor Swift. I also find it hilarious how I love metal, hate rap, and love Taylor Swift. All at the same time. She's just so awesome. If I were a girl, I'd probably have posters of her all over my walls. But I'm not. So I just have all her music on my iTunes...
I wonder how good I am at singing. Like, how good I am at actually singing. I think I'm decent, but the human mind loves to lie to itself. Its a beautiful self-relationship.
Okay, I'm bored of this song. Ah, here we go. Nothing says "I have high musical taste" like a metal song about obsession and abuse.
Man, I really need to get a short story submission in for the contest. This is literally the last day I have to write and submit it. Am I really going to pass up a chance to get $6000 just because I couldn't think of anything to write? No, that'd be stupid.
Man, that butter chicken poutine was amazing today... I really did make an effort to make my American food as Asian as possible... I got Orange Julius with tea. I'm such a boss...
Oh, and we're back to the bent posture... lousy habits. When's Brandon going to -

Microfinance Opportunities is unique in that it focuses on the demand side of microfinance. It occupies a niche role in providing services that directly benefit the end user, the low income consumer of financial services, working to increase poor people's access to and understanding of well-designed and delivered financial services. Access to these services can improve the capacity of households, women and microentrepreneurs to increase their incomes, build assets and reduce their vulnerability.
As the microfinance industry becomes more competitive, the consumer faces an increasing number of options. A greater understanding of the financial services available enables clients to better manage their financial options and economic shocks; to this end, Microfinance Opportunities' work on financial education addresses the information asymmetries faced by clients.
Impact assessment provides insights about how clients interact with and benefit from the provision of financial services. Market research focuses on understanding clients in order to know their needs, identifying gaps in the market and assessing competition.
Overall, Microfinance Opportunities provides support services that complement the product offerings of microfinance institutions and networks, enriching the experience for the end user, linking product use and product demand with product development.

Program 1
Microfinance Opportunities works in three practice areas: financial education, client assessment and microinsurance research. The Global Financial Education Program (GFEP) is our largest program. GFEP seeks to provide low income households in developing countries with improved financial management skills. The innovative GFEP curriculum was introduced in 2006. The core curriculum includes five modules (Budgeting, Debt Management, Savings, Bank Services and Financial Negotiations) that teach the knowledge, skills and attitudes required to adopt good money management practices for earning, spending, saving, borrowing and investing. The core curriculum is currently available in English, Spanish, Russian, Portuguese, Arabic, Chinese and French. The curriculum has been disseminated worldwide through regional and country level training of trainers workshops. Through several delivery channels such as classroom training, street theater, radio shows and newsletters, GFEP outreach exceeds 6.5 million people in 25 countries. In addition to the core curriculum, GFEP is developing the following additional curricula on new topics relevant to diverse market segments: youth, remittances, microinsurance and risk management, consumer protection and electronic banking. The Client Assessment arm of Microfinance Opportunities employs current methods of qualitative research to determine the effectiveness of current microfinance practices and understand client preferences. The organization is currently working with the IRIS Center at the University of Maryland on a multi-country study to assess the impact of innovations in financial services funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF). Client assessment also includes impact evaluation and market research to design appropriate products, enhance customer service, and improve delivery systems. Its expertise in market research supports the microfinance industry in its need to develop appropriate products and services. One of Microfinance Opportunities? client assessment tools is the Listening to Clients series, a groundbreaking audiovisual and interactive training program for microfinance practitioners. The program, which is available in both English and Spanish, features step-by-step qualitative and quantitative client assessment training for market research. It provides MFIs with the means to learn how to understand their clients using a variety of market research tools. Microfinance Opportunities is the leader in the assessment of the microinsurance market in developing countries. It uses its analytic tools to design appropriate products for low income households and has undertaken research in Asia and East Africa to identify client preferences and product attributes for a wide range of products.
Program long term success
Global Financial Education Program trained 124 trainers from 82 organizations and 11 countries. These trainers then disseminated financial education to more than 6.5 million people worldwide.
