On the same day that the Bengals crowed about the compensatory picks they've received based on free-agency losses in 2008, the team's head coach griped about a player who got away in 2009.
Specifically, Marvin Lewis discussed the departure of tackle Stacy Andrews, who signed with the Eagles shortly after hitting the market.
"I was surprised because he led us to believe differently," Lewis said of Andrews, according to Bob Brookover of the Philadelphia Inquirer. "I was disappointed because Stacy led us to believe that he wanted to stay [in Cincinnati], so it was up to his representative to get a contract done. We felt like we had a deal done and then, all of a sudden, he walked away and that disappointed me."
But, frankly, that's one of the risks of letting a player get to the market. The Bengals had the exclusive ability to negotiate a long-term deal with Andrews, the team's franchise player in 2008, prior to July 15 and after the team's last regular-season game, according to Article XX, Section 2(k) of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
The exclusive ability to do a deal with Andrews ran all the way up until 11:59 p.m. EST on February 26.
By letting Andrews become a free agent, the Bengals risked that he would sign elsewhere. They could have avoided that outcome by using the franchise tag again on Andrews.
They opted instead to apply the tag to a kicker.
And even though it's possible that the Eagles were talking to Andrews' agent before 12:01 a.m. EST on February 27, the Bengals needed to account for the possibility of tampering when deciding not to franchise Andrews, especially since pretty much every team tampers with pending free agents in February of each year.
Lewis Not Happy With Stacy Andrews

You are the Bengals. No one wants to stay there, fool.
Kevin from Philly says: Mar 25, 2009 10:36 AM
Same lame arguement that the Eagles gave when they let Dawk walk – "oh, we thought he wanted to be here but never got back to us". Get real, if you REALLY wanted the guy you'd have signed him.
BTW Florio, it should be "every TEAM tampers" not "every TIME tampers" in the last line.

It's just the Bengals, does anyone really care?

Marvin Lewis has no reason to be unhappy about anything.
He is lucky he still has a job after the miserable work he's done in Cincitucky.
Heinekenfun says: Mar 25, 2009 10:40 AM
And this is why the Bengals consistently suck. I think Marvin Lewis is a good coach.., it's a shame he's stuck with such a pathetic organization. At least it's not Cleveland.., so at least he has that.
ClevelandSucks says: Mar 25, 2009 10:41 AM
True story Stacy Andrews went from one crappy city to another crappy city.
doctor diggs says: Mar 25, 2009 10:41 AM
I think Lewis should stop being a puss. The Eagles have the biggest line and those tiger things should just cry themselves to sleep until the draft.
hayward giablommi says: Mar 25, 2009 10:42 AM
First of all, anyone who says they want to stay in Cincinnati is clearly lying or drinking the same Koolaid Marvin Lewis was drinking if he actually believed that Andrews wanted to stay with that franchise.
You are correct Florio, either franchise him, work out a contact before he hits free agency or accept that he's probably a goner unless you break the bank once he hits free agency. Oh, and don't bitch to the press about it afterwords, either, when its your own fault.
Ganggreen86 says: Mar 25, 2009 10:45 AM
I love how Lewis has committed gaffe after gaffe, including signing Coles instead of resigning Housh, and he's shocked someone would actually leave that organization.
Let's face it- while my beloved Eagles tied the Bengals- the Bengals have slowly reverted into the Bungals, and it shows that their one great season a few years back was, well, a joke.
Good job Lewis; I know people in Philly bitch about Reid, but man, how the hell does this guy get a free pass every year? What exactly has he accomplished past 1 Mercurial season and a defense in Baltimore, which is now what, 10 years removed?
Unbelievable. But hey, they do have that world traveler Dhani Jones on their squad. They MUST be doing something right…
DownWithTheClowne says: Mar 25, 2009 10:46 AM
Stacy Andrews always wnted to go to the Eagles to play with his brother.
The Bengals tried to sign this guy for years and never got it done so Andrews knew what he wanted the entire time. It's unfortunate because the Bengals spent a lot of time developing him. He played something like 5 games in college after switching from shotput in track.
The guy did not even play all that great last year anyway. He allowed plenty of sacks but that could have been partly Ryan Fitzpatrick's innability to ever throw the ball in time.
oHIoTitan says: Mar 25, 2009 10:50 AM
Where's all the Bungals fans at? They always talk about how good they are gonna be next yr, saying Florio picks on them. Then, when a story proves how inept they are as a franchise, no one speaks up in their defense. Typical Bungal fans.
jcgoblue says: Mar 25, 2009 10:50 AM
The Bengals had the exclusively ability
Maybe the the exclusive ability? Emmitt has nothing on you!
blve131 says: Mar 25, 2009 10:51 AM
ah the bungles. As a season ticket holder i cant wait to see a 1/2 emplty stadium again this year. As usual the only game that will sellout is the Steeler game, 90% Pittsburgh fans. Until they get a GM, this team will do NOTHING. Should have traded Chad to the Skins when you had the chance for 2 draft picks.
MaddenFL says: Mar 25, 2009 10:55 AM
Too bad. He's ours now.
bwnyc says: Mar 25, 2009 10:55 AM
Marvin Lewis is still hurt by a player lying to him? Shouldn't he be used to it by this point?
Stools says: Mar 25, 2009 10:56 AM
Lewis has gotta remember that Andrew's brother plays for the Eagles. It would be hard to turn down that opportunity!
partner55416386 says: Mar 25, 2009 10:56 AM
stop letting emmitt smith proofread your articles, florio.
reflections69 says: Mar 25, 2009 11:19 AM
Florio you make is sound like the Bengals screwed up. They were trying to sign Andrews for the past three years. I don't believe he ever was going to sign whatever the contract offer. He just wanted to play with his brother in Philly. What a wipe!
brianbaker6 says: Mar 25, 2009 11:21 AM
DownWithTheClowne hit the nail on the head. They've been trying to get him to do a long term deal since 2006. And he kept saying no (remember, the Bengals were "good" then). They drafted him as a project, developed him into a decent tackle, franchised him for more than he was worth at the time (considering he'd never been a starter), were criticized for franchising a non-starter player by everyone in the media, has a so-so year last year, gets injured, has a good faith agreement in place, then drops the Bengals like third period French. It was a crappy thing to do, but I think in the back of his head, he was always leaving for the Eagles to play with Shawn. Maybe these two headcases can get their acts together finally…
ahstoosu82 says: Mar 25, 2009 11:24 AM
This is Marvin spitting bull crap. People in Cincinnati knew for two years that Andrews didn't want to be here. Any player that wants to play for Mike Brown's Bengals is clearly out of their mind.
He didn't sign the contract they offered him last year and got tagged. Then he didn't sign a contract after suffering a torn ACL and hit the market. How much more of an indication by action rather than words do you need to prove he didn't want to play for the Bengals?
Now he gets a fat contract and lines up to his brother Shawn "I need a tissue" Andrews.
shaunypoo says: Mar 25, 2009 11:25 AM
Andrews did not remotely justify what the Eagles spent on him. He is fine with most bullrushers, but has feet of stone when someone puts a move on him. He was a turnstile for most of the season, and Fitzpatrick is more mobile than Carson will ever be. Collins and Whitworth played better than Jones and Andrews. Marvin should shut up and quit bitching about a half decent player that got away, when most Bengal fans don't mind.
WhoDeyThinkGonnaBeatDemBengals says: Mar 25, 2009 11:27 AM
Bengals fan here…
Florio is right about the tag. The Bengals are a cheap, family operated circus. They tagged a kicker who isn't particularly effective at kicking off or hitting long ones. Why? Because it was inexpensive to do so. Andrews would have cost $$ but given them options in the draft. Now they have to take a tackle #1.
On the other hand Andrews played lousy last year before the injury. The guy was a swinging gate.
Jeremiah W says: Mar 25, 2009 11:28 AM
Smart bungle, escape the jungle.
bengalfan says: Mar 25, 2009 11:31 AM
AND the Bungles had $10M of unused cap space last year – would have been smart to use some of that wasted money to sign Andrews to an extension. But the Bungles don't do 'smart'. Shocker of the century – they blew it. They couldn't even do the paperwork correctly on two, count 'em, TWO different trades for DTs last year. So they re-signed their own guy, Peko, for WAY more than he'd earned, and he responded with like 2 sacks in a 4-12 season.
pogo94 says: Mar 25, 2009 11:33 AM
PFTusername says: Mar 25, 2009 11:35 AM
DownWithTheClowne is right on the money. They negotiated a long term deal while he was a restricted free agent. Andrews turned it down. They negotiated again the following offseason. Andrews turned it down. They slapped the franchise tag on him and continued negotiations. Andrews turned it down. Then this offseason they allowed him to rehab at the facility and reached an agreement, but then Andrews signs with Phily.
I don't see how this is a gaffe by the Bengals. They built this guy from the ground up with one of the best line coaches in football. And they put him in the lineup in ways that he could succeed – meaning never was he thrown to the wolves. Most fans sensed that part of him always wanted to join his brother, so this wasn't a complete shock. It was surprising that he agreed to a deal beforehand with the Bengals and then bailed.
Whatever…just means more comp picks for the team next year!
Rocinante says: Mar 25, 2009 11:36 AM
Whatever….no that big of a deal. He is no make or break player like you would all love to believe. Lewis was dissapointed thats all. And we will return stronger next year. Ill bet dollars to donuts we scrape the weak ass eagles. Philly is a dump!
pimpinnati says: Mar 25, 2009 11:40 AM
Another instance of addition by subtraction. You Eagles fans enjoy Mr. Andrews "Ole" style of blocking. He gave up way too many sacks to be considered a "loss". He's too slow with his kick step to negate speed rushers off the edge. Let's also not forget he is still rehabbing from MAJOR ACL reconstructive surgery from an injury that occurred in December.
Fact is his replacement was an undrafted free agent named Dennis Roland who did a much better job sealing the right edge in the last 2 games of the season then Andrews did his entire career.
Thanks for overpaying for a slow, injured former franchise tag mistake. I can only thank the invisible friend for grown ups that he tore that ACL and thus precluded us from tagging him again.
Enjoy the mammoth waste of space that is Stacey Philly fans …
DC_Bengals_Fan says: Mar 25, 2009 11:45 AM
"I love how Lewis has committed gaffe after gaffe, including signing Coles instead of resigning Housh, and he's shocked someone would actually leave that organization."
Marvin's the coach, not the GM. Put the blame where it belongs.
JJMeeker says: Mar 25, 2009 12:02 PM
Have any of you actually seen him play? He didn't really dominate anyone last year. In fact, anyone with the least amount of football knowledge would have pondered why the Bengals tagged him at all. Why is he still a project after 6 years.
Most of you Eagle fans don't know what you're talking about when assessing Andrews talent.
Heimtime says: Mar 25, 2009 12:03 PM
Yes, enjoy that over weight bundle of lard. The Bengals did try to get a deal with him long term several times. The fact that Stacey and brother Shaun cry themselves to sleep each night because they are not together is the reason he opted for the city in which rats are considered a delicacy. The Bengals drafted this cat and developed him into a decent player. He should only get better. Cincinnati went 4-11-1 with him, does it really matter if any player stays or goes besides Palmer???
NGDOC says: Mar 25, 2009 12:12 PM
Congratulations Eagles fans. You overpaid for a lousy OT with a torn ACL. I think this was the single worst move of the offseason. Andrews was apart of an o-line that gave up 51 sacks. Most people in Cincy believe that losing Andrews was addition by subtraction.
MikeBrown..MurdaYourself says: Mar 25, 2009 12:16 PM
Where does the blame fall then?? On our GM… Uh, I guess that's Mikey Brown.
Mrs. Brown shoulda aborted him 73 years ago… He is single handedly responsible for ruining the house his father built.
Paul Brown: Legend
Mike Brown: COMPLETE AND UTTER FAILURE
DIE MEDIA DIE says: Mar 25, 2009 12:26 PM
LOL, I love how Bengals fans claim that Stacy Andrews had a bad year last year. Hmmm, maybe it was because everyone else around him on the O line is awful! And the Bengals dont have a running back that could burst through a hole even if there was a hole there. This guy is gonna be a beast for the Eagles.
Torontochamp says: Mar 25, 2009 12:38 PM
It was a great signing by the Eagles. They get a Tackle with a "blowed out" knee, to comfort his brother, who is depressed. Probably depressed that he is playing for Philly.
pimpinnati says: Mar 25, 2009 12:47 PM
Oh poor deluded DIE MEDIA DIE.
It's hard to be a "Beast" when you're still rehabbing an ACL tear.
Also the only "awful" player on the Bengals Oline besides Eric Ghiaciuc was Andrews. Explain to me how the crappy Center causes the Right Tackle to pull an "Ole" on the rushing defensive end.
You cannot. But don't take my word for it. Take Donovan's word for it when he's flat on his back or getting an MRI for his torn ACL because Andrews missed another block. Can't wait for Demarcus Ware to eat this kid's lunch, if he even sees the field this year. (See: Tear, ACL)
Kaz says: Mar 25, 2009 12:50 PM
Someone save these comments. I can't wait till mid season to bring these back up. Eagles were fools to pay starting money to a tackle coming of a horrific knee injury in late DECEMBER. Stacey won't be 100% till 2010. And trust me, that's not nothing to look forward to.
By the way Eagle fans, must be sad to not be able to beat those pitiful Bungles…With your starting qb,rb, and oline. All you could muster is 13 points? That against our backups (Only 4 starters on D)… If we do make it to the Superbowl, I certainly hope it is against you guys….
Wrathchild says: Mar 25, 2009 1:01 PM
What surprises me more is that Marvin Lewis is still the coach of the Bengals.

Him LEAVING has nothing to do with Bengals ineptitude. I would have been more pissed if they DID sign this waste of space. He played us. The ineptitude had already occurred when they fooled themselves into thinking that by franchising a guy last year that had done absolutely nothing to deserve that pay grade that they'd be able to bide their time to get a guy who was gonna bolt town one way or another eventually. Not to mention a guy who's STILL unproven and shown to be a bit of a poor sport when it comes to appreciating a team that's given him so much leeway and money over the past few years.
Screw Stacey Andrews.

Just a bunch of angry cincy fans…one's even talking SuperBowl..lol…and spare me the "Philly is a dump" BS because you live in frickin OHIO….again, OHIO. Spare me.
Yea, the Iggles played a horrible game against you guys in Cincy and you still couldn't beat us. How many times did you beat the Steelers last year? You had two tries. We had one.
And everyone of our backups on the line could start for your pitiful team. If signing Stacy just ensures that Big Shawn The All-Pro is ready to go then it was worth it. Do you even know what an All-Pro O-lineman looks like? Go Franchise Another Kicker
cincykid says: Mar 25, 2009 1:58 PM
It was the best thing that could have happened. Stacy Andrews was terrible. Then he blows out his knee to boot! The Eagles are crazy signing this guy to this much money. Its a joke cause the Pigeons fans thinks they got a bookend tackle when in fact they got the next Antone Davis. Pigeons got Pwned on this one WHODEY!
VBG says: Mar 25, 2009 2:56 PM
For all the Bengals fans saying how horrible Andrews is, when was the last time the Bengals won a Playoff game? In the past 10 years how many winning seasons have the Bengals had? Now answer the same questions for the Eagles.
I think the Eagles have a better group of coaches and scouts doing talent assessment than the Bungles so you really shouldn't be running yuour traps. Sure you tied the Eagles last season and that gave you something to be "happy" about, but then again it wasn't a win so why be happy? Also, what did the Bungles do after that tie and what did the Eagles do after that tie? The Bungles kept losing and went home for the holidays, the Eagles made it to the NFC Championship game.
Win a playoff game… heck just win 9+ games in a season before you start thinking about putting down some other teams.
BangleUSMC says: Mar 25, 2009 3:19 PM
-Short take > Andrews = Overrated developmental player who should be sending Monthly thank you cards to Coach Paul Alexander.
– Has great opportunity to play with Special Needs Brother in a hostile fan base so why fault him for that.
– Marvin Lewis is rightfully disappointed for Trusting the word of a high character guy (yes Stacie really is)
– Team could have turned thier backs on him after he blew his knee out but the Bengals staff are the ones who got him back on his feet!
– Shame on Marvin for thinking there is some honor left in young men!
RonO says: Mar 25, 2009 3:26 PM
and again, who's Frank?
smilergrogan says: Mar 25, 2009 4:09 PM
to the bengals fan who raves that his team tied the eagles on their best day of the year and the eagles' worst, on their field, on the way to a 4 win season (while the eagles went to the nfc championship game after that ugly tie), you must be doing hillbilly heroin or something, especially in the hope that when the bengals get to the super bowl they are playing philly. for bengals fans to hypothesize about super bowl opponents is delusional, and that is a charitable assessment.
as to usmc, you say Marvin thought there was some honor left in young men, using stacy andrews as the negative example. now, refresh my memory, what has andrews done that was anywhere near dishonorable, especially in light of the bengals roster since lewis arrived of prisoners and parolees like rucker and henry and thurmann etc.etc. as of april '07, 9 of marvins honorable young men had been arrested in the previous year and a half with henry alone accounting for four arrests….and Marv thought he had the honor brigade? please. and the bengals participation in the rehab of andrews was not an unselfish act inspired by mother theresa. unless they had something to gain he would have been on the street in a ny minute.
and as to the assertion that andrews is a stiff and the eagles got snookered by that savvy mike brown? perhaps, only time will tell, but if recent (this century) history is any guide, it will not be kind to the bengals.

Marvin Lewis is probably frustrated and blowing off steam that Mike Brown did not get him a starting OT or Center in FA and is taking it out on Andrews. This time of year when Marvin's mouth moves, it is likely misdirection or outright lies. What better way to tell the 5 picks ahead of you that you want an OT in the draft – and then draft some other player that you really want?
Andrews is a huge, special person. You have to acknowledge that the larger and heavier the man, the harder it will be to get that ACL strong enough to play at a high level. Given Philly's investment in him, they might put him in before he is ready. He may also develop a fear of reinjuring the leg and suck worse than he did in Cincinnati. However, I wouldn't be surprised to eventually hear his poor play last year was deliberate to get out of Cincy.

Long time-scale potential predictability in an ensemble of coupled climate models

A "diagnostic multi-model ensemble potential predictability study" of surface air temperature is performed using data from nine models participating in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP1). The data are considered to be a sample of results from the population of models "embodying current abilities to simulate the climate system" and represent a range of numerics, resolution and of physical parametrizations. The potential predictability of pentadal, decadal, and 25-year means is analyzed. The multi-model ensemble provides a statistically stable estimate of the potential predictability variance fraction (ppvf) with a narrow confidence interval. This is not the case for individual models with modest lengths of simulation data nor, by implication, for the instrument-based observational record. Potential predictability is found predominately over the high-latitude oceans. There is evidence also for potential predictability at tropical latitudes in the Pacific and Atlantic, but not the Indian oceans, on the shorter of the time scales. The potential predictability variance fraction decreases with increasing time scale but appreciable values exist at all of the time scales considered, especially for the Southern Ocean and for the North Atlantic. Values over land, while statistically non-zero, are small. The autocorrelation structure of the data is investigated to account for its effect on the statistical estimation of the ppvf and to indicate the extent to which the data reflect simple oceanic damping of white noise atmospheric forcing. Ensemble autocorrelation structures differ between tropical and extra-tropical latitudes (at least on the time scales considered) with more oscillatory behaviour implied in tropical regions compared to high latitudes. It appears that the results are inconsistent with simple ocean damping and that higher order autocorrelation structures of temperature cannot be neglected generally or in the determination of the potential predictability. The statistical results suggest that predictability in the extratropics is associated with long ocean time scales while in the tropics it is associated with the coupled atmosphere-ocean system. Physically based analyses are required to understand this long time scale behaviour and an "ensemble" view is also needed in order to determine the behaviour that is robust across models and the real system.

I was a patient of Dr. Lee for chemotherapy following a diagnosis of colon cancer. I had so many opinions from oncologists and had done my own research along the way. He was the only doctor that recommended the most aggressive and most effective course of treatment out there. Not only am I certain that I received the best regimen possible for my situation, I found Dr. Lee to be one of those wonderful doctors that cares about his patients and their families. That is a very important quality when you are dealing with chemotherapy and the impact that a cancer diagnosis has on your life. I would recommend him without a doubt to anyone in the unfortunate situation of needing an oncologist. You will receive excellent care from him.

Clones Take On Colt's Stainless 1911: Subtle, But Significant Improvement
Colt�s $610 stainless 1991A1 is still a good working tool, but it finishes behind two �clones� from Kimber and Springfield that continue to refine and improve the .45 ACP niche.
[IMGCAP(1)] For many of us, the first contact we had with firearms was the 1911 .45 Automatic Colt Pistol (ACP) that our fathers brought home from World War II and Korea. Since then, this pistol has been both celebrated and maligned, depending on the shooter's viewpoint. For one, the quality of its function is directly linked to the quality of its components and the careful assembly thereof. The 1911 pistol is capable of both reliability and superb accuracy because it has relatively few moving parts. Why then did it lose out on the U.S. military contract and for a time all but disappear from holsters of self defense–minded civilians? Politics, both domestic and international, played a part,...

Hanta Virus is a deadly, mouse-borne virus. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say around 10,000 people who stayed in tent cabins at the California park between June and August could have contracted the disease.
The CDC has urged lab testing of patients who exhibit symptoms consistent with the lung disease, hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, after a stay at the California park between June and August and recommended that doctors notify state health departments when it is found.
Two men have died from Hantavirus linked to the Yosemite outbreak and four others were sickened but survived, while the CDC said additional suspected cases were being investigated from "multiple health jurisdictions."
Most of the victims were believed to have been infected while staying in one of 91 "Signature" tent-style cabins in Yosemite's popular Curry Village camping area.
Yosemite officials earlier this week shut down all 91 of the insulated tent cabins after finding deer mice, which carry the disease and can burrow through holes the size of pencil erasers, nesting between the double walls.
Park authorities said on Friday that they had contacted approximately 3,000 parties of visitors who stayed in the tent cabins since mid-June, advising them to seek immediate medical attention if they have symptoms of Hantavirus.
The virus starts out causing flu-like symptoms, including headache, fever, muscle ache, shortness of breath and cough, and can lead to severe breathing difficulties and death. The incubation period for the virus is typically two to four weeks after exposure, the CDC said, with a range between a few days and six weeks. Just over a third of cases are fatal.
Although there is no cure for hantavirus, which has never been known to be transmitted between humans, treatments after early detection through blood tests can save lives.
A national park service official has said that public health officials warned the park twice before about hantavirus after it struck visitors. But it was not until this week that the hiding place for the deer mice carrying the virus was found.
Hantavirus is carried in rodent feces, urine and saliva, which dries out and mixes with dust that can be inhaled by humans, especially in small, confined spaces with poor ventilation. People can also be infected by eating contaminated food, touching contaminated surfaces or being bitten by infected rodents.

Something NewMature
Violet chatted absent-mindedly with her mom as they walked up and down the aisles of the convenience store. It was their first outing since the move back. "How about Chinese food for dinner?" she proposed, holding up a box of instant rice. She wasn't particularly interested in food at the moment, but it kept her thoughts off of Thayer. And, she had to admit, she rather enjoyed hanging out with her mom. They could talk about absolutely nothing, yet understand everything.
Her mom rolled her eyes. "Remember the last time I tried to cook Chinese? We nearly burnt the place down! You, dear, are no help at all." she laughed, and rolled the cart forward. Violet set the rice back on the shelf, giggling and throwing up her hands.
"Fine, mom. Have it your way. Why don't you keep looking for our dinner menu, and I'll go hunting for dessert. We'll meet back in the front of the store at O-Five-Hundred!" She mock-saluted her mother, and, noticing her silent acceptance of the plan, headed for the freezer section. It had been a long day, both physically and emotionally, and Violet was perfectly ready to surrender herself to the comforts of Ben & Jerry.
She was pleased to find the aisle nearly vacant of passer-bys. It was freeing, with nobody to stare or to judge. As she found the freezer loaded with assorted flavors, she hummed mindlessly to herself. She opened the door and picked up Cookies & Cream and Moose Tracks, so absorbed in her choices she didn't notice the intrusion behind her. "My personal favorite is Rocky Road..." he blurted as she jumped, dropping both. "Perfect for an ice cream connoisseur like yourself," he continued, not hiding his amusement with her reaction. He bent to help her pick up the covers that they had lost in the drop. There was no returning of either container in this state.
"Apparently, I'm not a "one-flavor" kind of girl," she replied. She took the covers from his hand and glanced at his face for the first time. His deep, chocolate brown eyes met hers. He was roughly her age, if not slightly older. His hair was raven black, cropped short in an almost militant style. He was quite attractive, a head taller than she, and not built lightly, to say the least. He laughed at her cheesy retort, and his eyes seemed to laugh with him. He felt inviting. But she tore her eyes off of him to look back down at the damage she'd done. "I guess I'm buying, huh?" she mused.
"Guess so. On the bright side, I can ring those up for you." It was then that she realized his uniform, and looked down, slightly ashamed at her own ignorance. How stupid of her, to believe his sales pitch and charm were flirtations. Her face reddened, but he tilted her chin upwards with his finger, unphased. "And since I feel I may have an ounce of blame in this catastrophe, I'll let you take advantage of me and jump the lines," he winked at her, and she couldn't help but laugh. "The name is Cameron by the way. Shall I escort you to the front?" Violet hesitated, but walked with him.
She set the two cartons on the counter and he began scanning. She couldn't find her mother anywhere. "What time is it?" she asked.
"Five-thirty. Why? Do you have a curfew or something?"
"Worse: an impatient mother." As if on cue, she heard the horn on their car, just outside the door. She turned back to Cameron. "Can we hurry up? I might miss my ride..," she said, shrugging and handing him her credit card. He returned it with a request for a signiature, and she slipped it back his way, grabbing her bag to leave.
He called out to her again, "Hey! Wait just a second." He flashed a heart-stopping grin her way, and as much as she knew she had to leave, she was curious to know what he wanted. She returned, and he held her signed receipt up again. "You know, that phone number you tried to slip me on your receipt must of rubbed off or something. Care to rewrite it?" She stared at him in bewilderment for a few seconds before cracking up. He had been flirting with her. His line was confident, but she could detect no arrogance. If nothing else, she had to give him credit for making her laugh. She took the pen from him and smiled before printing her number on the back.
"Now, I really do have to go. I'll...talk to you soon?" she asked, meekly.
"Bye, Violet," he said, reading the name she had signed.

text: A father and son in Searsport are teaming up to make renewable energy more accessible for folks along the Midcoast. They hope their new venture will entice more people to give it a try.At the Sundog Solar Store on Main Street, you're invited to come in and kick the tires on their products, whether you know a lot about renewable energy, or not."The whole premise behind the store is that people can come in here and get an education in things they really haven't had an opportunity to touch and feel before, or ask the kinds of questions they'd like to ask," says Chuck Piper, president.They sell solar electric and hot water systems, energy efficient appliances and all sorts of conservation products…if you wanted to find out more about setting up a small wind turbine or even a composting toilet – you'll find answers, here."We had a hundred people here at our grand opening on Saturday and we've had people coming in nonstop since. So we've been received pretty well by the community," Chuck says."I think this is great," says customer Gary Winders. He's setting up an off-grid electrical system at a cabin in Jackson. "I think it's a great way to see the demonstrations set up, so you can see the product. I think it's terrific."Before opening the store, Chuck Piper was a retired businessman with a background in environmental studies, looking for a new venture. He found it in the Sundog Solar Store.He says his son Danny, with a background in construction and a passion for the industry, was a natural fit as a partner."I love working with my father. It's really exciting for us to come back and reconnect. I like the idea that I'm being able to offer this to people in a way that makes a difference," Danny says. "It's really a means to making renewable energy, one, affordable and two, attainable," he says.The store is part of a national cooperative called the USA Solar Store. They say this is only the second such location in Maine.

This was shot in the woods in Middlebury,Indiana USA 12/7/2010. Shot with fujifilm finepix S1000 fd camera. It was snowing hard..I love wintertime..☺☺☺.This is a live version of one of my favorite songs by Black Sabbath (1975). Featured in Show us your Bloopers 12/21/2010.
What you get and what you see
Things that don't come easily
Feeling happy in my vein
Icicles are in my brain
Something blowing in my hair
Winter's ice, it soon was dead
Death would freeze my very soul
Makes me happy, makes me cold
My eyes are blind, but I can see
The snowflakes glisten on the tree
The sun no longer sets me free
I feel there's no place freezing me
Let the winter sunshine on
Let me feel the frost of dawn
Fill my dreams with flakes of snow
Soon I'll feel the chilling go
Don't you think I know what I'm doing
Don't tell me that it's doing me wrong
You're the one who's really a loser
This is where I feel I belong
Crystal world with winter flowers
Turn my days to frozen hours
Lying snowblind in the sun
Will my ice age ever come?

Fetishizing Jewish Women
Jewish women are hot right now. According to an article in the men's magazine Details, "Jewish women have become the ethnic fetish du jour." And in true men's magazine fashion, Christopher Noxon revels in the opportunity to eroticize and exoticize Jewish women; using dehumanizing terms like "cultural mutt" and "JILF," meaning "Jew I'd like to…" — you get the idea.
This article does little more than call attention to the misogynistic trend it then goes on to abuse for shock value, and Irin Carmon does a great job of breaking it down at Jezebel. Yet the use of the word "Jewess" in the article was particularly troubling for me, as a Jewesses with Attitude blogger. Given the continued derogatory use of the word "Jewess," can the term ever really be reclaimed? And how do Jewish women feel about being the object of a sexual fetish?
Leah Berkenwald is the online communications specialist at the Jewish Women's Archive, and a contributor to its Jewesses With Attitude blog, which cross-posts weekly with the Sisterhood.

RallyPoint launches social network catering to military personnel
The missions may be different, but military careers are much like civilian ones; success can often depend on who you know, not just what you know.
But servicemen and women aren't building their online professional networks as quickly as their counterparts in the private sector, according West Point graduate and U.S. Army veteran Aaron Kletzing.
So he started RallyPoint Networks Inc. to change that.
RallyPoint, which opened to all military members on Nov. 12, provides an online platform designed specifically for U.S. service members to connect professionally.
"People who are in the military have a difficult time trying to influence their assignments time in the military. Your assignments are made without regard to your merit, your experience, who you know," said Kletzing, RallyPoint's chief operating officer. But with RallyPoint, "we give members of the military a chance for the first time to leverage their relationships and their personal and professional contacts to influence their assignments."
Kletzing said he came up with the idea for an online networking site specifically designed for the military a few years ago, but wasn't sure where to go with it. His brother, an Army veteran and Harvard Business School graduate, put him in touch with military veteran and HBS student Yinon Weiss. Kletzing, who also attended HBS, met with Weiss over dinner in August 2011 and the two, in classic entrepreneurial style, started drafting a plan.
Since then they've been building their product and their team while looking for investors. Based at the Harvard Innovation Lab in Allston, they now have a full-time in-house software engineer and a vendor, Newton-based Kanda Software, supplying developers.
RallyPoint is now planning to expand, bolstered by the $100,000 it won in October as one of the top-four startups in the annual MassChallenge accelerator competition.
Meanwhile, RallyPoint was busy generating buzz. Several hundred military members, ranging from West Point graduates to colonels at NORAD, were testing the platform in recent months, and Kletzing said more than 1,000 were waiting to join.
Given the demand, RallyPoint decided to launch on Nov. 12, allowing any military member to join.
RallyPoint's entry into the social media market comes at a time when there is high demand for new ways to connect online, said Brian Blau, a research director with Gartner Inc. of Stamford, Conn.
Social networking sites have particularly strong growth opportunities in foreign markets, where Facebook, LinkedIn and other platforms aren't yet as popular as they are in the United States, Blau said.
Blau said social media sites organize around specific communities sharing unique needs and interests, such as the military, also have growth opportunities.
But he also pointed out that a site like RallyPoint has challenges, too. The size of its community — active U.S. military members, which stands at approximately 1.5 million, according to the Department of Defense – is relatively small. Compare that to LinkedIn, with 187 million members, and Facebook, with 1 billion monthly active users.
Moreover, he said new social media sites must also figure out how to make money, and any new site would have to offer something compelling enough to bring users – and eventually advertisers – to them and away from more established social media channels.
"There's a lot of competition for people's time and attention in social media. There's so much competition that it's going to be hard to build and maintain a business," he said.
But Kletzing and his team said they believe they can succeed.
Kletzing said his and Weiss' understanding of military culture allow them to develop a useful and unique product that also meets the security requirements that the Department of Defense wants. He also said he sees expansion possibilities, developing platforms that cater to related populations, such as military spouses. And, he said he sees possible revenue streams coming from outside organizations, such as businesses looking to hire veterans or colleges recruiting veterans.
RallyPoint officials said they also see strong demand.
"If you look at the younger people in the military, they're coming from an environment of connectivity. And they're seeking other areas to connect, to connect with one another and to learn from one another and expand their networks," said retired Lt. Gen. Ben Freakley, a RallyPoint advisor.
He said RallyPoint helps fill that need, adding: "For the active duty, it's a great platform for better-informed decisions about where they might serve."

It was enough to regain sixth place in the table, which had been lost to Bolton's lunchtime takeover, and to revive their European ambitions which had become frustrated by their failure to take more than two points from the 15 previously available to them this year.
Yes, from this performance, if they are the sixth-best team in the country, English football is in as big trouble as Blackburn were nudged perilously near the precipice by their third pointless and goalless game in succession.
Middlesbrough's absentee list may be almost as long as their team sheet - Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink the latest victim of flu - and now there's Parlour's suspension to serve, but they never found any rhythm, and could have been robbed of their victory when Paul Dickov collapsed under Michael Reiziger's challenge.
"The lad's bundled into the back of Paul, and it's in the area,'' said the Blackburn manager, Mark Hughes, "but the calls that need to be made aren't going for us at the moment.''
The Middlesbrough manager, Steve McClaren, was nonplussed. "Sometimes it doesn't matter how you win it, the result is all important. But we deserved it. The attitude of the players was magnificent, especially as we ended with five academy players on the pitch. We said to the players, make sure you celebrate it, but then we looked around and were wondering who we would play in midfield next week against Bolton.''
The first half hour of the game was so poor that the only noteworthy moment was Parlour's booking for taking crude retribution on Robbie Savage, who had just cleanly, if forcibly, won the ball from Bolo Zenden.
The goal came in the 35th minute, just after Stewart Downing had scraped the outside of the post. Downing, awaiting his England call-up, waited for his overlapping full-back Franck Queudrue, who then turned inside Aaron Mokoena and arrowed a shot across Brad Friedel. It was the Frenchman's third goal in a fortnight and Downing's most telling moment in a match where he could not rise above the scrappiness.
Of Downing's England call-up, his manager said: "I thought in October, November time, it was too early for him because he had not done it consistently enough, but if he gets it he has deserved it.''
The second half was no more inspiring than the first. Blackburn attacked - not a thing of beauty, and only fairly effective. Mark Schwarzer smartly tipped over Dickov's header in the 54th minute, and Gareth Southgate was ruffled enough to fluff two consecutive clearances.
Emboldened, Hughes withdrew Mokoena in favour of a second forward, the 20-year-old Jemal Johnson, but on the break it was Middlesbrough who had all the clear chances.
However, a combination of air shots and Friedel's bulk intimidating Middlesbrough's strikers ensured that the hosts did not increase their lead. And so, following Parlour's sending-off, the game ended in an extraordinarily frantic senselessness.

The authors explore problems at every level of education and tackle tough questions in theory, practice and policy making. Using real-life examples, they illustrate the great value of theoretical collaboration - instead of competing with each other, justice and care can and should work together.

GBUSA Inc. Teams Up with RecycleBank to Bring Rewards-for-Recycling to the Carolinas
Published: October 27, 2009
Recycling Rewards Program Helps Meet New Recycling Laws, Promotes Sustainability by Increasing Recycling Participation
CHARLOTTE, N.C., TUESDAY, OCT. 27, 2009 — Waste and recycling hauler GBUSA Inc. announced today that it has joined forces with Recyclebank®, the premier recycling rewards program, to bring rewards for recycling to Union County, N.C., and Sun City, S.C., residents. Already a success in 22 states and in the United Kingdom, Recyclebank encourages people to recycle by rewarding households with Recyclebank Points for their efforts. These Points are redeemable at local and national retailers, restaurants, grocers, and more. GBUSA Inc. is the only hauler to offer the program in North and South Carolina.
"With this new recycling program, residents will be able to meet recently passed laws requiring that plastics and aluminum be recycled," Erik Blowers, God Bless the USA Inc. founder and president, said. "And the best part is that there is no additional cost to GBUSA recycling customers—they can turn their recyclables into groceries, gift cards and more!"
Recyclebank motivates communities to recycle. The more a community recycles, the more Recyclebank Reward Points it earns. Recyclebank Points are redeemable at hundreds of local and national partners including major retailers and brands such as Coca-Cola, Kraft, Seventh Generation, Dick's Sporting Goods, Ruby Tuesday, CVS/pharmacy and Bed, Bath & Beyond. Local reward partners include Harris Teeter, Moe's Southwest Grill, Robek's Fruit Smoothies, Southern Spirits, Boneheads, and more. There is even an option to donate Points to charities or to local schools for environmental programming through the Recyclebank Green Schools Program. Members redeem their Recyclebank Points online or via phone, where they can also learn about their personal environmental footprint through recycling, read about easy ways to be greener, and learn what happens to recyclables once picked up curbside.
GBUSA offers its customers single-stream recycling, which means only one collection container is needed for all paper, glass, metal, cardboard, and plastic recyclables—no more sorting. After recyclables are picked up at the curb, they are then sorted at the Sonoco Materials Recovery Facility in Charlotte. Because single-stream makes it so easy to recycle, households may see a need for a larger container and may opt in for a 65-gal. recycling cart through GBUSA.
"The average Recyclebank household finds they can recycle at least 50-percent of their waste each week, easily filling a 65-gal. recycling cart," Blowers said. "Single-stream recycling with rewards from Recyclebank is a win-win-win situation—residents win because this is a great solution to the new recycling laws and because they're rewarded for their recycling efforts, local businesses win with an increase in customers redeeming their unique rewards, and the environment wins because the more households recycle, the less waste ends up in the landfill."

Qihoo Stock A Buy Ahead Of Q2 2015 Earnings
- Qihoo 360 is due to report Q2 2015 results on Sept. 1. 2015.
- Qihoo has been enjoying considerable success with its new mobile search engine.
- The private buyout offer for the company remains in the cards despite the turmoil in the Chinese market.
- The short and long-term outlook for Qihoo 36o remains good.
Leading Chinese Internet security company, Qihoo 360 (NYSE:QIHU) is due to report second quarter fiscal 2015 earnings on Sept. 1, 2015. Analysts have forecast the company to report EPS of $0.50 vs. $0.30 posted by the company in the prior year period. Qihoo has managed to beat earnings estimates for three straight quarters, with the company beating estimates by a large margin of 29.4% during the last quarter.
Qihoo 360 Quarterly Earnings Surprise History

Qihoo shares have been badly hammered this year--down 15.87% YTD. The latest selloff has come over the past five days after the company unveiled three new smartphone models, coupled with the ongoing turmoil in the Chinese markets that continues taking a heavy toll on Chinese stocks.

Despite the huge selloff, a cross-section of analysts remains optimistic about Qihoo 360's prospects. Six out of eight analysts rate Qihoo stock a Strong Buy while two rate it a Hold. The analysts have a mean price target of $94.95 on the shares, representing a huge 97% potential upside to current price.
Source: NASDAQ
This seems to concur with my own analysis of Qihoo stock. In the article, I explained that the main reason why I remained optimistic about Qihoo stock was because of the the company's ongoing success in transitioning to mobile search, a fast-growing field that it entered early this year but has already managed to grab a small but significant market share. Qihoo launched its Haosou mobile search engine in January. Mobile search in the Chinese market is growing at a blistering clip--198% during the last quarter, and accounts for 42.5% of all search revenues.
Qihoo owning its own mobile search engine gives it a good opportunity not only to monetize the platform, but also lower its traffic acquisition costs, or TAC. Traffic acquisition costs for large search companies such as Google (NASDAQ:GOOGL) can be a huge line item--Google spends about 21% of its revenue on TAC. This refers to the money that the company pays to a company like Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) for Google to become the default search engine on the Safari browser. About two-thirds of Google's TAC is directly attributable to the Safari mobile browser.
Even though Qihoo does not break out its traffic acquisition costs in its earnings reports the way Google does, it's likely to be substantial given that its search engine ranks as the second largest in the Chinese market. Part of the reason why Google was able to cut its costs and improve profitability during the last quarter was due to lower TAC. Google has been able to lower its TAC from almost 25% of revenue during 2013 to 21% during the last quarter mainly due to the growing popularity of its Chrome browser.
The same corollary can be drawn for the growing popularity of Qihoo 360 and its mobile and PC search engines.
Source: SearchEngineLand
Qihoo's mobile venture will receive a significant boost from its smartphone JV with Coolpad, China's fifth largest smartphone manufacturer with about 9.4% market share. A few days ago the two companies released three smartphone models targeted at the high-end, mid-range, and lower-end segments of the market. The new smartphones feature superior security features including dedicated VPN for payments as well as a kill switch for stolen or lost smartphones. This could give the smartphones an edge in the enterprise mobility market where security is often a top priority. Although Android dominates the overall U.S. and global mobile markets in terms of market share, iOS rules the enterprise space due to its superior security features.
Although the market has received the news badly due to the lower margins sported by smartphones compared to Qihoo 360's core web security business, the move could prove to be highly strategic in the future. Owning a complete mobile ecosystem is usually advantageous for a search company as it's able to directly control the features that go into its products.
Qihoo Ad revenue to resume growth
Qihoo 360's slowing ad revenue was one of the key reasons why the company's top line growth suffered during the last quarter. This was caused by the company's strategy of slowing down its customer acquisition spree to focus on consolidating its gains and improving user engagement. This way the company ensures that it builds a sticky user base and grows its revenue contribution per customer.
Estimates are that Qihoo 360 resumed its customer acquisition activities during the last quarter. This should help the company to not only grow its advertiser customer base from the 100,000 mark by the end of the quarter, but also its revenue.
A buyout still ion the cards
Qihoo had received a buyout offer of $77/share by co-founder, chairman, and CEO Hongyi Zhou, who wants to take the company private. Current share price is at a big 37% discount to the offer price. Though the ongoing turmoil in Chinese markets might place a damper on Qihoo's bid to re-list on its home turf, this remains a possibility that cannot be overruled.
Bottom line
The short and long-term outlook for Qihoo 360 remains good. The shares, however, might not tack on meaningful gains due to the current Chinese quagmire. But the long-term gains will likely be much more substantial.

EUR/USD: outlook for October 10-14
During the week EUR/USD was trading in a very volatile fashion. The euro got a boost and managed to recover from lows on the speculation that the European Central Bank's thinking about tapering its quantitative easing program. According to a report by Bloomberg, the regulator would start winding down its bond buying by 10 billion euro a month, ahead of the program's currently scheduled end in March 2017. However, there was no official confirmation of this information, and earlier the ECB president Mario Draghi has consistently said monetary stimulus would be extended past March if necessary.
As for other news, German factory orders rose at the fastest pace in 5 months. Concerns about Deutsche Bank have declined, but the uncertainty still remains. Moreover, significant political uncertainty looms ahead, and despite good readings from Germany we see that the overall economy of the currency union is losing momentum.
Next week don't miss German trade balance and Sentix investor confidence on Monday and German and the euro area's ZEW economic sentiment on Tuesday.
Technically EUR/USD failed to stick to the levels above 100-week MA (1.1210). However, the pair got support near 1.1100 (support line from November 2015). Next week we expect EUR/USD to stay in 1.1200/1.1100 range. Decline below 1.1100 will open the way down to 1.1040/00.

Born in a fjord, a tiny fish named Arlene wants to be a sardine. Fully grown by two, she swims into a big purse net along with thousands of friends from her school. After three days and three nights, she is lifted out of the water and dropped onto the deck of a fishing boat, where she dies. But that's not the end of Arlene's story. It takes a lot more than just being caught for Arlene to achieve her dream of becoming a sardine. Both clear-eyed and kindhearted, this tale of Arlene's journey from down in the deep to a tightly packed tin can is a salute to all the little fish of the world.

Germany is a world leader in TVET reform and progress. It's always been an important part of the education system in Germany. In 2014 alone, over half a million students went through Germany's dual model TVET system, which pairs firm-based training with a school component. But, it's the country's broader qualification structure that sets it apart. Read More

Rapid economic development is on Myanmar's horizon. Experts have predicted an 8.4% annual GDP growth for the nation this year – a ground-breaking growth rate, up from 5.9% in 2011. Technology trends and large amount of relatively-free moving capital are to thank for Myanmar's recent (and continual) growth.
But, as it stands, the country's workforce simply doesn't match the increasing economic demand.
Until 1996, all of Myanmar's vocational schools were organised under one umbrella. This created a large gap in education and training available for mid-level technicians. Read More
Education, vocational training, and life skills are what Ecuador needs to thrive, according to the World Economic Forum. All Ecuadorians must have 21st century skills to succeed in their fast-evolving global digital economy.
Literacy and numeracy skills, as well as collaboration, creativity, and problem solving skills could help take the country to new horizons. As it stands, for people in Ecuador there is a gap in the education they need. Many countries in Latin America rely on volunteers to teach English, yet this isn't sustainable. Read More
All eyes are on Germany's reformation of Thailand's vocational education system – using TVET as a foundation to work up the ranks from apprentice to Managing Director.
As it stands, there are 426 colleges in Thailand, with the equivalent number of private colleges. While there's adequate facilities for locals, the country faces ongoing issues.
Recently, the Office of the Vocational Education Commission (OVEC) invested in an extra 14,000 teachers to fill the ongoing shortage issue – but low salaries do little to retain quality staff and informal training. And there's a stigma attached to TVET, with Thai families encouraging a bachelor's degree, instead of building vocational skills. Unfortunately, some students graduate with a standard degree and struggle to find work. Read More
Workforce Training Innovation Fund – clever plus demand based for enterprises, industry sectors and regions

For some time, Pakistan has had a TVET system that doesn't match its requirements. There's no systematic approach to monitoring labour market demand.
As a result, there's a complexity of issues including economic demand, under utilisation of facilities, lack of autonomy, and informal sector training. Millions of young Pakistanis enter the job market annually but lack relevant skills. Read More
Nepal is one of the ten fastest nations making development gains in terms of the Human Development Index in the past four decades. Yet, half of Nepal's population living below the poverty line while their public spending on healthcare is a tiny US $3.10 per person.
Nepal's current education system isn't serving the people. As a result, the nation is failing to move forward in helping employ locals. What's needed is a hands-on approach to VET training that actually meets industry opportunities.
According to Annapurna Post's analysis, "we have to internalise that skill is our base and utilise the natural and human resources and thus raise our national productivity. This is the only way to achieve economic and social progress and reduce poverty." Read More
Botswana has transformed itself from one of the poorest countries in the world to one of the fastest growing economies – from a bleak $70 GDP per capita in the late 1960s to the current $18,825 GDP per year.

Mining, cattle and tourism drive the economy. Its high gross national income gives it a comfortable standard of living for two million population.

Indonesia has faced major economic issues in recent years, but there's an emergence of young business and entrepreneurial leaders.

Sri Lanka is a small country with a large, yearly population growth rate. As it stands, this little island is home to 20.48 million people – close to the population of Australia.
And for the youth of Sri Lanka, it's tough. They're unskilled and over a quarter (25.1%) of them are unemployed. It's a huge challenge the country is working to tackle, and if Sri Lanka plans to sustain their annual 8% GDP growth goal, a highly skilled workforce is needed. Read More

Virgin Mobile Inadvertently late making a payment to Virgin Mobile? They will steal on the money in your account! internet Nationwide

Corporate Advocacy Program™
I am writing to complain about Virgin Mobile's late payment policy. I had a few dollars short of $300.00 in my Virgin Mobile account last August. Due to a family medical emergency, I was late making my internet payment to Virgin Mobile. When I did go to pay it, I found that they had "swept" my account. This means because I was late, they discontinued my phone number and took ALL THE MONEY OUT OF MY ACCOUNT!! They gave me $10.00 of it back when I complained, but refused to give me any more.
They said when someone is late, their policy is to "sweep" the account...again that is closing it and taking all the money in the account. I told them that I would perfectly understand if they gave me a reasonable late charge like other companies do, but to steal a person's entire balance is ridiculous! I asked them to give me the name and address of the company so that I could correspond with them by letter, but they refused and completely stopped communicating with me. Virgin Mobile doesn't care about you...all they care about is money.

Mahua (Vaishali), Oct 19: The political legacy of RJD chief Lalu Prasad is at stake in two seats in Vaishali, one of the worlds oldest republics and capital of the Lichhavi clan, where the NDA is trying hard to eclipse the sonrise by fielding two rebel sitting MLAs of JD(U) against his sons.
With leaders having switched loyalties, there is confusion galore for voters and party cadres in Raghopur and Mahua constituencies, which go to polls on October 28 in the third phase.
JD(U) and RJD had locked horns for the two seats over the last 15 years before Lalu Prasad and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar buried their differences to forge an alliance to take on a resurgent BJP after the Modi juggernaut virtually decimated them in the Lok Sabha polls with NDA bagging 31 of the state's 40 seats.
The result is that both the JD(U) candidates, who trounced RJD nominees in the last assembly polls, are taking on RJD supremo's sons while riding the NDA bandwagon.
Lalus sons Tej Pratap Yadav (27) and Tejaswi Yadav(25), are banking as much on their father's yadav caste vote bank as on "chacha" Nitish Kumar to take on Hindustani Awam Morcha (HAM) nominee Ravindra Rai in Mahua and giant killer Satish Kumar in Raghopur.
Kumar had humbled Lalu's wife and former Chief Minister Rabri Devi in the last poll. Since yadavas constitute the largest voting bloc in the area, the JD(U) had in 2010 fielded Rai and Satish, both yadavas from Mahua and Raghopur.
Both had won, with Satish Kumar's triumph earning his the sobriquet of giant killer. RJD supporters, however, insist that Lalus sons have a clear edge, especially after the coming together of Lalu and Nitish.
RJD leaders are also spreading the buzz that Lalus sons are up for Deputy Chief Ministership if the grand alliance wins the polls though the RJD chief himself downplays this.
Addressing election rallies in Raghopur, Tejaswi seeks to allay apprehensions that he will not devote time to the constituency and promises he is ready to construct a house there and stay permanently to work for the people.
Stumping in the two constituencies, Nitish Kumar says Tej Pratap and Tejaswi are not only Lalus sons but also "my candidates".
In Raghopur, he asks his supporters to "chase away" Satish Kumar. He says the 'giant killer' tag to Kumar was a "misnomer".
"If you ensure Tejaswis win, I will take care of Raghopurs development," Kumar says. Satish Kumar, who is contesting on a BJP ticket, however, ridicules Nitish, saying JD(U) has no cadre base in the constituency. "Last time also, it was the BJP workers who worked for me, though I was contesting on JD(U) ticket.This time also I am the NDA candidate. This time round BJP workers will work all the more harder as I am a BJP candidate," he said.
Rabri had earlier defeated Satish Kumar in Raghopur in October 2005 polls.
