STILLWATER, Okla. - Tennessee's best nine holes of the week helped the Vols gain three spots in the standings here Wednesday after two rounds of the NCAA Men's Golf Championship.
UT rallied after a 9-over-par first nine holes to shoot 2-over for the second nine and finish the day with an 11-over score of 299 - nine strokes better than Tuesday's opening effort. Tennessee climbed into a tie for 24th place with 18 holes remaining Thursday.
"We would like to have been a few shots better heading into tomorrow, but Thursday's a big round for us," head coach Jim Kelson said. "If we could go play really well tomorrow, we could leave here with a decent taste in our mouths."
Tennessee finished 25th in the national finals a year ago at The Honors Course in Ooltewah and 12th the year before at Inverness Club in Toledo. The 2003 Vols finished 23rd the last time this championship was held here at Karsten Creek Golf Club.
Garrick Porteous and Jay Vandeventer shared scoring honors for UT with matching 73s. Robin Wingardh was next at 75, followed by Danny Keddie at 78. Darren Renwick fought through a difficult first nine to finish at 79.
"Hats off Garrick and Jay; and Robin was fighting there pretty well," Kelson said. "We are proud of them that they hung in there without their A-game."
Birdies the Hardest Hole
Porteous was 4 over par through two holes before returning to form. The junior began stringing together pars and the payoff came with consecutive birdies at Nos. 16 and 17.
"I didn't get off to a great start," Porteous said. "I just wasn't committing to the targets. But I got into a rhythm after that. I stiffed it on 16; I stiffed it on 17. They always say that about me, that I birdie the hardest hole every week."
This week's candidate is Karsten Creek's par-4, 471-yard 17th hole, which was the third most difficult hole Tuesday and the second-hardest Wednesday. Its stroke average through two rounds is 4.57.
Porteous birdied both par 5s coming home against just one more bogey and improved 28 positions on the individual leaderboard to a tie for 62nd place at 6-over 150.
"I just played steady and stuck to my game plan, and it seemed to work out."
Vandeventer said Wednesday was his best round since the SEC Championship, where he posted three straight 73s to finish in a tie for 25th. Here at the nation's top collegiate tournament, the sophomore climbed 34 places on Day 2 to a tie for 74th.
"It felt pretty good," said Vandeventer, who was five strokes better than Tuesday's opening round. "Once again, I hit the tee ball really well and found a bunch of fairways."
Eagle-2 at No. 16
Highlight of the day was an eagle-2 at the par-4 16th hole. He promptly followed that up with a triple-bogey 7 at the 17th, but Vandeventer wasn't about to let that ruin his afternoon.
"I told myself the same thing as Tuesday, just one shot at a time. I got a birdie out of 18 and then played the front side really well."
Vandeventer shot an even-par 36 for his second nine - one birdie, one bogey - and is at 7-over-par 151 for the championship.
"I burned a lot of edges with the putter and wish a few would have gone in, but other than that I played pretty well. I know what I need to do, just keep hitting fairways and giving myself chances. Hopefully, those putts will fall in tomorrow."
Wingardh played his first nine holes in 3 over par thanks to a bogey-bogey start. But the senior captain got all three shots back over a five-hole stretch from holes 1-5.
"I started hitting some good shots and making birdies," he said. "I played better than Tuesday, but not anywhere close to where I want to be or where I know I can be. I can't really do anything about it other than just try to get a really good round Thursday."
Wingardh's second round was tempered somewhat by a double bogey at No. 6 and a closing bogey at the ninth. He's in a tie for 78th place at 8-over 152.
"This year, I've been playing pretty consistently," said Wingardh, who on Tuesday was named to the Division I Ping All-Southeast Region squad. "It's a little disappointing that I played pretty bad in regionals and have played bad so far here. But I'm just going to try to get a good round tomorrow.
"No matter what happens, I'm happy with my play during my senior year."
First Birdie at the Last
Keddie finally found his first birdie of Wednesday's second round on the very last hole - the par-5, 623-yard ninth. Keddie shot 39-39 for the day after carding 38-38 on Tuesday.
"The first seven holes, I hit it unbelievably well. I hit it straight at the pin but just couldn't make the putt. I couldn't get the ball to the hole. I was missing everything low and short.
"I hit a bad yardage on 17 and went over the back, had a bad lie and ended up making double. And it just seemed to get worse from then on."
The freshman also doubled the par-3 third, taking four putts from the fringe after his tee shot landed above the hole.
"I made a few bad decisions today and everything seemed to add on to the trouble," Keddie said. "It's nice to finish with a birdie. I felt I hit it pretty good all day, but if you go in the wrong direction you struggle to make it stop."
Renwick went out in 43, a double at No. 11 and triple at No. 17 the major culprits. But the junior played his best golf of the week on his second nine, rallying for an even-par 36 to settle at 13-over 157 for the championship.
"I just told myself to keep doing what I'm doing, keep staying patient, because I felt like I was playing well," Renwick said. "I've just been getting a couple of bad breaks here and there and I need to stick with it."
Tennessee's third round begins Thursday at 8:40 a.m. Central time on the No. 10 tee, alongside San Diego and Kent State. Those two squads are immediately ahead of the 24th-place Vols on the team leaderboard.
Course Record 65
Georgia Tech (573) and UCLA (574) are 1-2 for the second day in a row, followed by Illinois (578), Georgia (579) and Alabama (580). The fight for the top eight match-play positions are up for grabs Thursday, with host Oklahoma State (585), Augusta State (588), Texas A&M (590) and Ohio State (590) holding the inside track.
The match-play quarterfinals begin Friday.
Individually, LSU's John Peterson (139) broke the Karsten Creek course record with a 65 to climb into first place, one stroke ahead of Georgia Tech's James White (140).
Peterson's round also was one shot better than the previous course record of 66 held by former Oklahoma State golfer and current PGA Tour star Hunter Mahan and Kansas' Andy Stewart.
Thursday's weather forecast calls for both the warmest temperatures and gustiest winds of the championship. Highs are expected to reach the mid-90s amid winds gusting from 15-25 mph.

MADISON, S.D. – Dakota State (S.D.) outscored Mayville State (N.D.) 23-4 in transition points to earn a 90-60 North Star Athletic Association men's basketball conference victory Wednesday evening at DSU Fieldhouse. The Trojans won their eighth straight meeting over the Comets and remained undefeated in NSAA conference with a 2-0 record.
Dakota State improved their overall record to 10-12, their fifth straight season with double digit victories for the first time since 1988-94 (six straight season with double digit wins). Mayville State lost their seventh straight game and slipped their overall record to 6-13 and winless in three NSAA conference games.
The Trojans and Comets went through three ties and six lead changes in the first eight minutes and eighteen seconds of the game.
Trailing 16-14, DSU went on to score 10 straight points from four different scorers (Dylan Hale and Adam Hofer 3-pointers and 2-point field goals from Yusuf Vinson and Miguel Sansavour) to earn a 24-16 lead with less than nine minutes remaining in the first-half.
Dakota State closed the first-half by a fast-break opportunity as Hofer made a lay-up (assisted by Hale) to give the Trojans a 41-28 halftime advantage.

Dakota State recorded its biggest lead of the game at 86-55 with 2:50 left, thanks to a 3-pointer by Kevin Danielsen.
The Trojans outscored the Comets 49-32 in the final twenty minutes of the game.

DSU outrebounded Mayville State 45-30.
The Trojans outscored the Comets 21-7 in points off turnovers, 42-26 inside the paint and 29-16 in bench points.

Not enough redgard?
I have @ 63 sq ft of shower stall to cover with redgard. I did the priming, then 2 layers, each going a different direction with the roller. I've used up about 1.1 gallons of redgard, and the manufacturer says I should cover 35 - 40 sq feet with one gallon. So I used less than I expected.
Should I put on another layer of redgard? The first layer I put on like paint, rather thin, should I have laid it on heavier? Or am I overly worried about this? I know you shouldn't put on too much also.
What "priming" are you talking about? It's been a couple of years since I used RedGard, but I don't remember any priming being involved.
Priming is 1 parts redgard to 4 parts water, paint that on the panels first.
Does it say to do that somewhere on the can? I certainly don't recall doing it.
To address your original question, any coverage listed is just an estimate. A lot depends on the nap of the roller and how the stuff is applied. As long as you applied two coats and have to gaps, I wouldn't worry about it.
The priming recommendation is on the redgard manufacturer tech sheet, although the precise usage of the priming is kind of vague. I've read on the internet that some people do prime their boards, so I did it just to be safe.

Will the Gainesville Police Department be allowed to use a $2.8 Million Grant?
The Gainesville Police Department has been granted $2.8 million by the federal government to hire 15 new officers. But the City of Gainesville said they can only have 5 officers, because the grant requires the city to pick up the tab for the new hires in 2014. And a local police union says the city's priorities are out of order.
Well you've heard it before from the Alachua County Sheriff. But this time the struggle over law enforcement funding is between the City of Gainesville and the local Fraternal Order of Police.
The FOP said the Gainesville Police Department needs 15 officers right away, however city staff is saying they won't have the million extra dollars needed to retain the officers in 2014.
FOP President, Jeff McAdams said, "The city has the money to pick up the additional cost, they have to figure out if they're gonna prioritize the need in the community."
McAdams said the police department needs all 15 new officers that the grant allows. But City Manager Russ Blackburn said it isn't financially feasible. Blackburn said, "We did not feel that we really could guaruntee we would have the money avaialble to pay for the salaries and benefits as well as the associated cost as we look further into the future."
Chief Tony Jones recommended in November that the 15 officers be placed to meet the needs in a number of units including traffic and gang control. And McAdams agrees with his recommendation, saying hiring only 5 officers won't cut it. McAdams said, "The officers are very sensitive right now because violence against police officers is through the roof, we need the back up of those additional 15 officers."
So between the City's budgeting realities and GPD's need for additional staff, who determines what levels of staffing are necessary for public safety? Well McAdams said no independent analysis has been done in the last 20 years.
Blackburn said, "We have not done a staffing study recently. In part because as you know and other people in the community know, we've been looking at reduced revenues, not increased revenues....we have to do the very best we can with the resources that are available."
McAdams said the city isn't adequately funding the police department and that a study would prove it. He said, "I think the city is afraid of what the outcome of that study will be. They're afraid of it because it will bring liability on the city if they don't bring us up to the level that staffing study recommends."
Chief Jones said he's eager to hear what such a study would say, but for now is just trying to make the best of what he has. Jones said, "I feel like right now that certainly I'll take all the help I can get. But I also have to live within the means of the City of Gainesville budget."
On Thursday, the grant will be discussed at the Gainesville City Commission meeting. City spokesperson Bob Woods said the Commissioners will decide how to handle the grant then.

Summer is no time to relax for Canada's best winter athletes, who are sweating hard with seven months to go before the Olympics and Paralympics in Sochi, Russia.
We asked medal hopefuls to dish on their summer workout regimes and share their best exercise tips for our readers.
This week the focus is on athlete Josh Dueck.
Josh Dueck is all about pacing himself, but you'd never know from his frenetic schedule.
Since winning a silver in slalom at the Vancouver 2010 Paralympic Games, the 32-year-old professional freeskier from Vernon, B.C., has continued to compete for Canada, helped found the Live it! Love it! Foundation to introduce disabled youth to outdoor adventures and became the first sit skier to do a backflip – a hair-raising feat that took months of preparation and countless gut checks and ultimately landed him on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
This summer Dueck, who was paralyzed from the waist down
in a 2004 skiing accident, has been working out in Vernon, where you'll find him in the gym, at the yoga studio, on his handcycle road bike or, just for fun, on his mountain bike or paddle board.
In August, he heads to New Zealand to find some snow.
Focus: The shoulders
"If you look at your centre of balance from an able-bodied perspective, everything happens right around the pelvis. If you imagine the triangle of balance for the average Joe, the base of the triangle would be at your hips, and then it would peak up toward your head or a little lower. For me, or a person who has a spinal cord injury, you flip that triangle upside down. All of my balance and co-ordination comes through my shoulders. That is my new centre of balance."
How I work it
"My body wasn't designed to push a wheelchair around. So with that in mind, I respect that there's a certain lifespan in a person's shoulders. If I overdo it and blow a shoulder, that could really impede how I get around for the rest of my life. So when I work out in the gym, I do a lot of cable work, a lot of band work and a lot of lighter weight work in order to create a balanced upper body.
"I bet I could bench 200 pounds. I'm sure there's a lot of power there. But I don't, because if I'm working on that sheer power – sheer force – there's the potential that I could really wear that joint out quickly. Anyone's vulnerable to doing that. If you go to the gym and you start working out with heavy weights and you're just trying to be as strong, powerful and impressive as you can be, you definitely run the risk of putting something out of alignment or tearing a ligament or muscle, which could have significant long-term impact."
My best exercise
For me, pushing my wheelchair around has made my chest really strong, and because of that my shoulders want to roll in. So I lie on my stomach and reach my hands above my head at shoulder height, with a pound or two of weight in each hand, and lift them up like Superman eight times. If I do three cycles of that, I'm going to be screaming. It's going to be so painful. The little muscles are so weak because the big muscles are so strong that the little guy never really had a chance. A lot of people have similar problems from sitting at a computer for long stretches."
Good advice
"I've been developing this skier's body over the past seven years and I've come to a point where I'm so much better now than I was seven years ago, but I still have a long way to go. Our sport – and life in general – is a game of attrition. And you've got to pace it out. I've seen a lot of counterparts – both teammates and people outside of the country – that came up quick, but something happened somewhere along the line. Either they had an injury that kept them out of sport or they had a nagging or reccurring injury. And you see them leave the sport. The turtle wins the race every time."
How I know my shoulders are weak
"When I'm physically not strong enough to keep up with my imagination on the hill. It's a constant battle. I think it's important for an athlete to have a really good understanding of what the body is capable of."
The bottom line
"You don't need to be in the gym three times a week for 90 minutes each time. That's insane. When I'm done my competitive career I won't be training as much, but I'll be as active. I'll be on my bike, I'll be doing yoga, I'll be doing light band work to keep my shoulders and good posture. It's the least we can do for our bodies. They take us everywhere and give us an opportunity to live a life. It's a small return on a big favour."

"We had crap before..but now we changed" doesn't help those stuck with the obvious (needed changes) poor design and support.
The folks that put money into your company deserve more than those who MAY put money into your company..
Or does SB think this train of thinking is flawed ?
First off let me say that I have built enough cars of all types to say that there isn't a car out there that you can build fit and modify to suit your own taste and not have any problems with. Some people even built themselves up by boasting of how many problems they have had to overcome.
Now that having been said there are things we can do better and I had plans to improve the car even when we first built it 15-20 years ago. I just never had the chance at that time, but now I am back and those changes I wanted to make so long ago are going to happen.
Our cars are not crap, they have been built by people all over the country and around the world, in fact more of our cars have been built then any other company when you add up all our different models and by built I mean completed and driven.
That does not mean they cannot be improved, just like old Henry Ford's 1934 coupe has been improved by everyone who has ever built one with similar degrees of success.
I'd like to see some of you street rodders call up Ford and whine about how the mods some guy did 20 or 30 years ago were so badly done you had to tear the whole thing apart and start from scratch after you bought it.
There is a underlying hypocrisy in telling me that in a hobby where people routinely modify, fit, and hand build their cars to their own standards of excellence they then complain that our cars require the same sort of modifications fitment and assemble that street rodders normally do with anything or any car they get their hands on.
And it is hypocrisy to say on one hand that you completely stripped down a 1932 whatchamacallit and redesigned it in your own image to suit your ego, but couldn't build one of our cars because it is too hard for you to build.
If you examine the fiberglass street rod/kit car industry as a whole from the early sixties until today, our cars are more complete, easier to assemble, and a better value in the long run then anything out there.
They were designed to be that and not a prefect exact replica of an original 1934 ford coupe down to the chicken wire and rubber roof.
There is a reason some other companies sell their cars with the doors and the trunks fitted and mounted, their customers couldn't complete those tasks on their own, given the methods those factories use to assemble them on their cars.
I could if necessary rip to shreds the design of any other fiberglass kit car or street rod out their using the same exact criticism used on our cars, the only reason I choose not to is that it is not my style to bad mouth other companies, but I could.

i am now a real california dog. today i went outside on the new patio 50 million times. every time i asked mommy, she would let me out. and, she even left the door open half the time so i could play whenever i wanted to.
of course, i had to keep checking on her to see what she was doing. it was scary to be left alone the first 5 times but then she put me in my crate and i stayed alone without barking. i love my crate. i love my new doghouse too. it is a log cabin. and has a green roof. i ran after my ball and toy. i ate lots of treats. we went on a hundred walkies. i barked at the people on the street. they didn't pay attention to me. the mister doggies barked at me on our walkies. but i got better each time we went by them. i just stuck with mommy.
kappy is pretty happy in the new home. it makes me feel better.
woof from l.a.,
Dear Diary,
It was my birthday on Friday, and I had a nice day with meem. She brought me a big piece of juicy beef, some mashed potatoes, and a huge yummy rib.
Yesterday we went on long walkies with Rebecca. We walked 13 miles and I was so tired but happy, even after I took a bath (i went swimming so i had to take a bath).
Now I smell like lavender and tea tree, and I can sleep all day.
p.s. me and mom are the same age now
meem just told me that we're "cat of the day"!
don't know what that means, but i'm very excited. am going to go on kappy's page and leave her something. maybe a bone, or a bandanna? hmm, not sure what she'll like. maybe the cat of the day will let me give her a lick on the nose.

The run started innocently enough, with a layup and a defensive stop to start the second half.
By the time it was finished, though, the Utah women had scored 16 consecutive points and turned a close game against Southern Utah into a rout.
The final was 79-61 at the Huntsman Center. More importantly, the Utes showed an increasing ability to pull away from their opposition, and to clamp down when they had to on the defensive end.
"Getting stops. That's what it was all about," Utah coach Anthony Levrets said. "It was close at halftime. I think this early in the season there is so little film to rely on, so it took us a half for the girls to understand how and where Southern Utah was getting their points from. Once we did, the girls were fine."
As usual, punching the ball down low to Taryn Wicijowski proved to be a key, as the junior center scored 20 points and grabbed 15 rebounds. On a night where Michelle Plouffe struggled with her shot, Iwalani Rodrigues provided a fine complement to Wicijowski, scoring 20 points herself.
Utah led as much as 51-28 in the second half, but saw that advantage reduced to single digits before pulling away down the stretch. The Utes (2-0) forced the T-Birds to shoot a paltry 32 percent from the field in the second half, with only Marissa Robbins scoring as much as 10 points.
The Ute made 25 free throws. Senior guard Rachel Messer chipped in with 10 points, as Utah scored 44 points after halftime. That was enough for the Utes to cruise to a comfortable victory, as a big matchup with Michigan awaits on Friday night.
"It's important that we get off to a good start to this season, so this was a big win for us," Wicijowski said. "I thought we played well in the second half, especially defensively. I thought that opened up a lot of easy offense for us, and we were lucky enough to be able to take advantage of it."

Long Island Area Dealer
Hello, can anybody recommend a no hassle dealer or salesman in the Long Island area? I have went to a few local dealers and have left both pissed off. I have a very busy schedule and don't have time for these games.
Re: Long Island Area Dealer
Good luck with that impossible request!
I'm sure you already know DON'T waste your time w/ Smithtown Jeep.... the worst of the worst.
East Hills isn't much better! Don't go there either!
Port Jeff and Browns are hit and miss depending on who you deal with and what non public dealer incentives their trying to hit. Best time to deal is at the end of the month when they can actually hit their sales quota and give better prices to those willing to negotiate.
What are you looking to buy?
I would suggest you do your homework and deal thru the internet to save time and hassles. Deal with an internet sales manager and play one dealer vs. the other for the best price...all at home on your computer.
I sent a friend to Koons in DC because they were offering the best group buy deal out there 7% below invoice w/a $500 fee....well worth it even with the flight to DC and road trip back included;
Re: Long Island Area Dealer
I walked out of Smithtown and the guy from Browns never called back. I'm looking for 2014 Limited with 20's and no cd player. I'm trading in a 2011 Laredo. I've had zero luck with the internet sales people, they all make you come in and play the game. Thanks for reply
Re: Long Island Area Dealer
If you are buying off the lot, search the inventory online, find the car you want, call and make an offer. Tell them to either accept or reject your offer. No BS required.
If you are ordering, reside what you want and what you are willing to pay. Contact three dealers, tell them "exactly" what you want and how much yo are willing to pay. Again, have them give you a yes or no answer. Give them one day to decide and politely tell them not to call unless it's a yes.
You can get this done in less time than the round trip to a dealer or two.
I built my altitude back in august on the jeep web site to what I wanted...after I got done it showed what dealers had it I chose security dodge jeep Chrysler which listed 5 of them went there and by the next week it was mine!...told them we checked out other dealers and the price "they have me" n they beat that price!
Re: Long Island Area Dealer
I purchased my Jeep from Westbury Jeep and had good experience.
Re: Long Island Area Dealer
Their sales managers are all lying scum, trying to part you from your money any way they can! Typical New York sales scum.... willing to lye and cheat you any and all ways, every time, all the time!
I was able to get 2% under invoice with Access Fund membership. The deal on my trade in was more than I thought I could actually get. It was what I wanted, just didn't expect to get it.
I was planning on going to other dealers to shop prices, but Brown's was my first and only stop. Probably could have gotten another 1% off somewhere else, but this was the closest dealership to me (except for Storm's, which apparently won't go under invoice) and the experience was surprisingly good. Well worth it.
Finance guy was great as well. Came close enough to Internet prices on MaxCare Lifetime Warranty that I was planning on getting anyway, and was able to beat my PenFed loan rate of 1.74% by 1/2%.
Great experience all around. Was not expecting that.
Re: Long Island Area Dealer
I got my jeep from grand prix subaru and jeep for an amazing price and no hassle salesmen. They were bought by Westbury Jeep a few years ago BUT are nothing like them i had horriable experience with them as well as Town & Country Jeep in levittown.
Re: Long Island Area Dealer
Re: Long Island Area Dealer
Had a pleasant experience with Huntington Jeep using their Commack store. Felt I was treated honestly and they quickly were willing to match a price in writing.
Town and Country was a negative experience. Westbury was problematic. I was told they had a true blue WK2, but when I went down there, none was available.
Re: Long Island Area Dealer
I bought my SRT from Greg Leonardo at Westbury Jeep back in Dec 09 brand new. After a little haggling we got to the price I wanted.
But overall it wasnt a bad experience. Much better than the 5 previous purchases I had at Manhattan Jeep.

Wood rot repair epoxy recs?
Hi, looking for experienced advice for wood rot repair products. I've read that Albatron is the best, but it is $$$$ and you can't buy it at the local store. I am wondering if the stuff at HD/Lowes is adequate for a standard exterior window sill job? Will need hardener then putty. Any suggestions of the best brand that you can get locally?
And, what do you think of Smith's CPES that comes in Warm and Cold weather formulas? Is it a novelty, or do the different formulas make a difference? Thanks everyone :)
I used Abatron products for ages on sailboats and antique home restorations. It may be pricey but it great to work with. I would never use anything else. They ship overnight if you are really in a hurry. Make sure to mix in small batches so you don't waste it.
If you do buy box store stuff, do make sure you double check expiration dates in case the minimum wage apron people did not rotate out outdated materials. There is nothing worse than epoxy that will never cure.
If you try Bondo do get the wood filler, and not the autobody material. The latter will not shrink and expand with the wood and you will end up with a mess. Also note that you will still need a wood hardener.
Matching wood hardeners are usually part of systems like West's, Abatron's and ConServ Epoxy's (another decent company if you need it for comparison). I am not sure it matters but Bondo does not yet make a hardener as far as I know (and I could be wrong. 3M does not see to put out a lot of information on the wood filler).
I have never used West's system on homes but have on boats ages ago. I hadn't thought about it until Joe posted. I certainly had no problems with it and suspect it would work just fine. Again, make sure you get products with the flexibility to work on wood and not just on something like fiberglass hull repairs. West's product list is a little daunting but I suspect they must package some sort of home restoration kit to narrow choices. If not, customer support is worth a shot. I know others who have used the ConServ Epoxy products and were pleased.
As you can see, none of the good products are exactly inexpensive which makes me leary of box store offerings. Selling cheap paint is bad enough but cheap epoxy could be really scary. I do admit a bias against box stores but realize most products are on the shelves for their profit margin potential and not necessarily for their quality. Sad but true.
I have had decent results with various repairs using epoxy left over from fiberglass boat repairs. For a wood repair I have mixed sawdust with the epoxy. For masonry repairs, I have mixed stone dust with the epoxy. A gallon of resin is pretty cheap compared with these proprietary products.
Hey Thanks everyone for the responses! I've used autobody Bondo before for wood fascia repairs. I just recently replaced those fascia boards because the Bondo fell out after about 5 years. I've also used the West System on boat repairs, but I found it rather pricey as well. I was hoping the big-box store stuff would be adequate, but all they had at HD was Elmers Glue stuff, of which I seriously doubt the quality as a wood hardener. I guess you get what you pay for? Hmmm, sounds familiar. I suppose I'll cough up the $$$ and order the Albatron so I don't have to do this again in 5 years :huh:
Anybody ever try the Smith's CPES stuff? I was wondering about the "cold formula" since it will be getting cold soon.
If you want to not do it again then have a new sill made up and remove the whole window and replace the sill.
Have you looked really close that the nosing on the sill to see if you can see two wooden plugs that cover up two or three screws that are removable to replace just the exposed outside sill?
I've seen lots of 100 plus year old house with the window frames built that way.
May have to sand off some of the paint to find them.
2 Attachment(s)
Here are some pics if anyone is still reading this post. It is a bay window, so I can't just slide in a new sill. The rotted part is custom formed so I will have to mold some epoxy to it. I'm looking for a putty type of epoxy rather than a liquid. The yellow stuff is a failed repair attempt with "foam in a can" stuff.
So Joe, are you saying that an epoxy repair won't last 5 years? :(
The restoration processes I mentioned are all two step though. You carve out any rotted wood you can and then use a liquid epoxy to harden any of the fibers left around your cavity. If you do not do this step you just have mushy fibers that no paste will work with.
The second step is to mix and fill with the epoxy paste. You can tint it if you want. Work in small batches (or it will cure on you faster than you can work), let them cure and build up all missing voids until you get a surface. You can cut a profile from masonite or similar material to match that you have as you sculpt the final layers. You can work the epoxy with standard woodworking tools.
When I say epoxy, I am talking about good two part stuff and not something like single can bondo.
I would pull that window out and out of your way. It looks like it is screaming to be reglazed anyhow.
All this said, have you traced how so much water is reaching the sill that it rots? Are you missing flashing or a gutter above this window?
Thanks SD, I'm a sailor, too. There's a substantial overhang over that window, and it's on the leeward side of the (waterfront) house, so I don't know how it gets much water. It had signs of decay when I moved in ten years ago and I just kept putting it off.
Funny you should mention those windows. I just replaced two of those panels 3 weeks ago and haven't touched up the moulding yet. One of the double panes was cracked on each one. Maybe I shoulda done the wood first, but getting the windows in before winter was the top priority. Maybe I'll go with the West System since there's a West Marine on every streetcorner here, it'll save me on shipping costs :thumbup:.
My fave racing sailboat was a sloop rigged 35' Cheoy Lee Lion. She was extremely heavy in the keel but with a tall mast it almost seemed like you could tip her over with mast and keel near parallel to the water. Blow a puff of air behind her and she just flew. We got caught in the SF Bay in the storm of the century with winds we later learned clocked at 90mph. At sea we could have just ridden it out but the average depth of SF Bay is 10 feet and with 6.5 feet of keel under us we would have been torn to shreds if we left one of the carved and dredge shipping channels. All the stupid tack drills paid off because that is all we did for hours. Tack and tack and then tack again as sail clips tore from the mainsail. She got us home and always did. When I got my pilots license I was allowed to sail her alone, usually to the sail shop across the Bay from Bezerkley where she parked for free in front of a restaurant window because she was gorgeous looking.
A bad turn at a marker and a spinaker pole gone wild as it dropped with sail still attached took out some antique teak railing. I repaired it with epoxy and none but a couple of us would have noticed the patch. Heard she suffered a major fire and I don't dare ask if she was ever restored.
Fair winds, eye on the tell tail and clear to the horizon with the Spinnaker blocking part of your view lad! Do report back on how it all works out.
Personally I had good results with various repairs using epoxy left over from fiberglass boat repairs. For a wood repair I have mixed sawdust with the epoxy. For masonry repairs, I have mixed stone dust with the epoxy. A gallon of resin is pretty cheap compared with these proprietary products.
I have had good luck with this stuff, is cheap, available at local big box stores.
Just mix up the amount you need.
A word of caution, try to apply as smooth and finished as possible.
You can apply it and let it setup for about 30 min and can start sanding and smoothing it out.
If you apply it and let it sit overnight to dry, will need a orbital sander with 100 grit paper to smooth it out, it does dry rock hard.
So smoother you get it while applying, less work for you later.
I have used it inside and exterior uses for years and find it a good cheap product,

Doctoral Degree
Doctoral Degree
The Education Policy Program offers an Ed.D. in Educational Administration and Policy Studies (with Education Policy specialization). The program prepares researchers and analysts to advance knowledge and improve practice for the purposes of promoting excellence, equity, and efficiency in educational systems and organizations. In a world of accelerating change and a growing need for better understanding of the practices by educational organizations and the policies that govern them, this doctoral program prepares students for key or leadership positions as skilled analysts who are able to solve problems, make informed decisions, and help improve practice. Please note that this program is not intended for those who aspire to become practitioners, administrators or educators in education systems. The program is ideally suited for those aspiring to hold high level positions in national government agencies, think tanks, research-based advocacy groups, professional associations involved with education, consulting firms, state education agencies, large school district central offices, or in international organizations dealing with education and training.
The doctoral degree has five streams of preparation. It provides considerable exposure to the methodological, historical, social, economic, and political contexts that shape education policy and its analysis. It builds expertise in policy development, analysis, advocacy, implementation, and evaluation. It develops and enhances quantitative and qualitative research skill in the analysis of contemporary policies and policy proposals. It affords students the opportunity to develop expertise in a concentration area of their choosing while preparing to conduct their own dissertation research.
DOCTORAL PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS (for course descriptions check here) :
Prerequisite Courses (equivalents accepted)
EDUC 6371 - Education Policy or equivalent
EDUC 6116 - Intro Education Statistics
Core Courses (12 credit hours)
EDUC 8110 - Adv. Study: Ideas, Issues, and Practices in Ed.
EDUC 8321 - Economics of Education
EDUC 8322 - Education Policy Implementation
EDUC 8340 - Methods of Policy Analysis in Education
Research Courses (15 credit hours)
EDUC 6381 - Program Evaluation
EDUC 8120 - Quantitative Methods: Group Comp. Designs & Analysis
EDUC 8122 - Qualitative Research Methods in Education
EDUC 8171 - Predictive Designs & Analyses (Regression) [Note that this required course counts as the GSEHD required advanced research methods course].
EDUC 8998 - Pre-Dissertation Seminar
Students may elect to take additional research methods courses to be used in their dissertation or to advance their research methods skills. There are several courses that the GSEHD research methods faculty offer, as well as several offered across campus. We suggest that you consult with your advisor.
Elective Courses (15 credit hours)
Students take fifteen graduate credit hours of electives. Courses are to be selected in consultation with their academic advisors and/or program coordinator. Students are expected to use these elective courses to develop strong expertise in at least one are of concentration or field of interest in education policy. Students are strongly encouraged to take all or most of the electives that are offered by the Education Policy Program faculty: EDUC 8320 (politics), 8323 (Equity), 8325 (Accountability), and 6100 (topic varies). Students also benefit from a wide offering of courses in the GSEHD school, in the University and within the Consortium of DC universities. A minimum of three credit hours are to be taken outside the Graduate School of Education and Human Development.
Students may use their electives to take a wide range of courses in which they are encouraged to develop expertise. In addition to courses offered by the Education Policy Program, students often take courses in the Trachtenberg School of Public Policy and Public Administration. Students tend to also take advanced methods courses in the Graduate School of Education and Human Development to develop their research skills. They may also take courses in programs of other schools, such as Political Science, Economics, Business Administration, International Affairs, Political Communication, Political Management, Sociology, and Woman's Studies. Students may also take courses at other universities that participate in the Consortium of Universities of the Washington Metropolitan Area, in accordance with the guidelines. Finally, students may use one or more electives for supervised individual study or internships with Washington organizations following the Education Policy program guidelines and approval.
Dissertation Research (min of 12 credit hours)
Students produce a scholarly dissertation that contributes to the body of knowledge in their concentration area. At least 12 credits of EDUC 8999 (Dissertation Research) must be taken and more may be required to complete the dissertation. (See the GSEHD Doctoral Handbook for more details.)
The program requires a total of 54 credit hours if the prerequisite is met prior to admission. Students may transfer up to 6 credits of graduate courses taken at other institutions under conditions specified below and following the Education Policy program guidelines for accepted prior course credit transfers.
Admitted doctoral students will be referred to a Web-site to self-assess their quantitative research skills. Those with modest weaknesses will be directed self-study materials to complete the preparation needed for EDUC 8120. Those with widespread weaknesses are to take a prerequisite course at GW (EDUC6116) or at another university prior to beginning EDUC8120.
Note: Students may elect to focus on international education policy issues and can certainly take elective courses either in international education or develop skills that they wish to apply in international education contexts. These electives, in addition to the core degree requirements, are to be selected with approval of the student's advisor and with collaboration from the International Education program faculty.
Possible Adjustments in Credit Requirements:
Adjustments are possible to the program of study. Such adjustments may be as follows:
1) Entering students who have already completed the equivalent of one or more required courses or appropriate elective courses may request that the credits be applied to their GW doctoral degree following the prior earned credit Education Policy program's guidelines (available upon request). The request may only be granted if the credits were earned at an accredited university within the past three years, were passed with an A- or full A grade, have not been applied towards another awarded degree, and the student's advisor along with the program coordinator approve the transfer. Note, however, that GSEHD requires that at least 36 credits of coursework and 12 credits of dissertation research must be earned while in degree status at GSEHD .
2) Students who have taken the equivalent of one or more of the required courses from an accredited university and earned at least an A- in them may request to take a more advanced course in place of the requirement(s). This option can be exercised even if the previously taken courses have been applied to another degree. The student's advisor and the program coordinator have to approve the request. If the request is to take a higher level research methods course, the approval of the Research Methods coordinator is also required.
To request these options, a student should make a written request to his or her advisor and the program coordinator. She/he should provide formal course descriptions, official syllabi, and/or copies of the table of contents of the main assigned readings. Generally these options will not be permitted if the courses have been completed more than three years prior to admission to the Education Policy program, but exceptions may be made for students who have been directly applying the course content in their subsequent employment or professional activities.
More information:
You can find more general information and guidelines and regulations while pursuing a degree at GWU by consulting the University Bulletin. Note that the University Bulletin is the primary rule setting guide that all students must follow. GSEHD general information and rules and policies can be found in the Doctoral Student Handbook.
More information about the program can be found on the home page, the faculty in the Education Policy program, the Education Policy Masters Degree Program, the Education Policy Doctoral Degree Program, and the applying for financial aid pages.

President Barack Obama has been quite the social-media star since giving a simple little speech Tuesday night. First, president No. 44 appeared on YouTube Thursday, where he answered questions submitted by users of the Google-owned video site. Then Friday, as part of the takeover of Myspace by hip-hop mogul and Global Grind founder Russell Simmons, Obama prepared a special message for Myspace members.
Simmons' introduction:
Over the past week, I have had the great pleasure of taking over Myspace, which was supposed to end Thursday, but I just couldn't let go. I have shared my musical influences; exclusive excerpts from my new book, Super Rich; inspiring content from Global Grind; the best in art and culture; and even a little yoga. I couldn't let go because I had one more thing to share. Nothing makes me prouder than what I received late last night from a hero of mine, the president of the United States, Barack Obama, and I am overjoyed to deliver his exclusive message to young people of this great nation. As we move forward, let us move forward together as one.
With great love, all things are possible.
Obama's message:
I've always believed that here in America, every young person should be able to set goals and reach them; to discover their passions and follow them; and to earn their piece of the American dream. That's why, during the past two years, my administration has worked hard to give people like you the opportunities you need to reach your potential and win the future. We passed the Affordable Care Act that allows young people to stay on their parents' health care plan until they're 26, allowing more time to find a job that carries insurance. We reformed the student-loan system to put billions of dollars back into the pockets of students paying for college instead of watching it pad the profits of big banks. We've invested in clean energy and encouraged a generation of innovators working to start the companies and build the technologies of the future. We've ended combat operations in Iraq and brought more than 90,000 troops home from the battlefield, and also made sure they get the care they have earned when they got back. And, even though there's still a tremendous amount of work to be done, I promise that every decision I make in the years ahead will be made with you in mind. Each of you represents our hope for this country. Your generation will be the one leading America into the future. And if we do our part, I know you'll make us proud.

Good service ! Happy with the service personnel. Can improve service by asking how to clean at every step - I personally don't like anyone moving around things without asking so service men should always ask before moving items. Rest everything was great!

Subaqueous Melting of Greenland Glaciers
Mass loss from Greenland ice sheet has increased rapidly, mainly due to the acceleration of outlet glaciers. One possible reason for glacier acceleration is the increase in submarine melting associated with ocean warming. However, the mechanism of ocean impacts on subaqueous melting and glacier acceleration has not been well studied by direct measurements or by numerical experiments on Greenland tidewater glaciers. We use field experiments combined with numerical models to study the subaqueous melting and its impacts on glacial dynamics. MITgcm (Massachusetts Institute of Technology general circulation model) is used to simulate subaqueous melting on the vertical ice-ocean interface of Greenland tidewater glaciers. The ocean model result can be used to force an ice sheet model to estimate glacial acceleration caused by the submarine melting. Fjord data and other remote sensed observations will be used to validate the model simulation. This work will ultimately be applied to the entire Greenland and adjacent ocean to project the mass loss from Greenland in a warming climate.

going to be installing Saniplus, venting question
In the diagram for the installation .pdf it shows the pump itself, the sink, and the shower drains all meeting at a junction to tie into the main sewer vent. All of the installs I see on youtube only show the pump itself tying into the sewer vent. Do you have to vent each drain separately into the main? If so, why? Since ALL water is going to the pump why wouldn't just the pump vent be enough, or would it?
Ha! Even the video on the main page doesn't show them venting the sink or shower like the install page does...what???
Saniflow Stinks
I would recommend staying away from the Santiplus/best for whole bathroom. I did months of research, contacted contractors, owners and ended up busting concrete up and now installing sewage ejection pump.
Saniflow - $1000+install and material
Sewage Ejection-$400 plus install and material
If saniflow pump goes out... $700-$1000, ejection pump..$250
many satisfied customers of Saniplus. That's the way we are going. The macerator pump unit is $599 at Menards BTW. Saniflo emailed me and said that as long as the fixtures are within 4' no other vents are needed.

Ok. You know those times when you are just bored of having your regular coffee and just seem sort of lost. It suits you fine and gets your engine all pumped up, but sometimes a change is good right? Only problem is that when you try this new drink, most of the times it backfires and you run back chastened to your regular decaf.
This time around, the coffee on Koffee with Karan was that something different that Karan tried out. But fortunately, this one did not blow up in his face or ours. Instead of having his regular guests on his regular chat show talking about regular things, this time he decided to show us the things that we were really curious about. Like how do the stars look so perfect and are always well coordinated? How is it that they know exactly where to pause and greet the host, to sit and what to do?
In this o holds barred, Karan enlightened us with inside scoop on the show. Turns out, the stars are just as nervous and clueless like any regular person. It is Karan who gives them the cues as to where exactly pause, how to air kiss and where to sit. As if this is not enough, he also takes care of their make up, ensemble and total look. And here we were appreciating their personal taste…
Nostalgically, he spoke about the special moments on the show that he fondly remembers. He started off with saying that after the first season, he was criticized for inviting only the crème de la crème of Bollywood on the show. So this time around, he decided to explore the outer realms of our vast industry. Turns out, it was a fruitful experience in more ways than one. Though each guest was special, he spoke fondly about Himesh, Shahrukh, Shabana Azmi and Javed Akhtar, the Kapoor clan and surprise surprise! Rakhi Sawant! Cute goof ups and the crazy things stars say and do were also shown.
But coming down to business, there was one thing I'm sure everyone wondered about. What is in the coffee hamper that has all these big stars clamoring after it like little children? I for one found it bizarre that they were fighting over some coffee powder and biscuits. Shows how naïve I was because when I got to know the contents of the amazing hamper, my jaw almost hit the floor. Not only did it have delicious coffee powder, an authentic Turkish mug and loads of mouth watering cookies, it also had colognes and perfumes from Lancôme, not to mention the make up (yes! Make up!). It also had great state of the art gizmos like a DVD player cum I Pod holder and the coolest phone ever. All that for answering some quiz!
But it was a great episode because we saw the people behind the stars and Karan as a guy with an eye for detail. It was fun and I feel closer to the show now.

Leonardo da Vinci gets celebrity billing with UK show
By Mike Collett-White
LONDON (Reuters) - Move over George Clooney. Lady Gaga? So yesterday. The new celebrity in town is Renaissance artist Leonardo da Vinci, subject of a major exhibition at London's National Gallery that has generated the hype of a Hollywood blockbuster.
Critics have fallen over themselves to find superlatives to describe "Leonardo da Vinci: Painter at the Court of Milan," which gathers nine of only 15 or 16 paintings of the master's paintings known to exist.
Missing are arguably the most famous of all -- the "Mona Lisa" at the Louvre in Paris and "The Last Supper" mural in Milan which cannot be moved anyway.
But the National Gallery is still confident that the collection, including loans from around the world, represents "the most complete display of Leonardo's rare surviving paintings ever held."
Curator Luke Syson, who worked for five years on the exhibition, was close to tears describing it to the first of two press previews on Tuesday to cope with huge media demand.
"People have talked about this as an unprecedented opportunity," he said.
"It is an unprecedented opportunity. It probably won't happen like this again and so it's very moving, the thought that we actually might be able to understand Leonardo better collectively."
He said the show, which runs from November 9-February 5, 2012 and is sponsored by Credit Suisse, was designed to focus on Leonardo the painter, as opposed to scientist, inventor, engineer, mathematician or all-round polymath. Continued...

They were not necessarily held in May or June, what later became the standard "end of the school year."

Well, I had certainly never heard that, or thought of it that way. I've always just assumed that it came from both a pot and a kettle being black, and, therefore, for one to call the other black is just ridiculous when it is the same thing.
So, I turned to my old friend Google. Here's the best explanation I could find:
POT CALLING THE KETTLE BLACK - The "Morris Dictionary of Word and Phrase Origins" by William and Mary Morris has more detail about this phrase than other reference books: "There are two slightly varying interpretations of this phrase, which is used figuratively to apply to persons. One theory is that such action is ridiculous because they are both black, presumably from standing for years on a wood-burning stove or in a fireplace. (Note from ESC: iron pots and kettles are already black when new.) So the pot as well as the kettle is black (evil) and neither one is better than the other. This supports the explanation of the phrase as given in 'Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable': 'Said of one accusing another of faults similar to those committed by himself.' The other theory is that the pot was black but the kettle polished copper and the pot, seeing its own blackness reflected in the shiny surface of the kettle, maintained that the kettle, not it, was actually black. In any event, it seems that the best, if slangy, retort by the kettle may have been: 'Look who's talking!' Usually the source of the phrase is given as Cervantes' 'Don Quixote' and simply as 'The pot calls the kettle black,' but another version of Don Quixote comes out as: 'Said the pot to the kettle, get away black-face!' Henry Fielding, eighteenth century writer, reverses the roles in 'Covent Garden Tragedy': 'Dares thus the kettle to rebuke our sin!/Dares thus the kettle say the pot is black!' Even Shakespeare used the idea in 'Troilus and Cressida': 'The raven chides blackness.'"
Here's another good explanation.
The only real mention I could find of the possibility of this being a racist term comes from this discussion board. I, personally, don't rely too much on information from discussion boards - there is no reason to believe that any of the commenters are linguists or historians. For all you know, they can be the same dumb people you wouldn't bother to listen to in a debate in person.
Here's a quote that I liked though:
What is it that you (i.e. the objector, as a black person,) find so objectionable about the phrase? Would a Native American object to the phrase "A stop sign calling a fire engine red"? Would an Asian American object to "a banana calling a lemon yellow"?
Actually, I like that quote so much, I'm thinking about using either of those two alternative quotes now. Or, maybe in the interest of avoiding any possibly racist colors I should make up one of my own. How about "That's like the grass calling the pinetree green?" Yeah, I know, kind of lame. And it might insult the leprachauns. Or the Irish. Maybe I should pick a color that can't possibly offend anyone - but what color is that? I'll have to put more thought into it.
So, anyone else? Any thoughts? I may not trust strangers on a discussion board, but I trust my readers. Anyone else think that this is a racist phrase?

Financial Market Turmoil And The Impact On Telecoms Providers
Posted by Dan Bieler on September 27, 2011
- 537 Recommendations
- 0 comments
As a former investment analyst, I remember the feeling when stock market screens turn deep red. Such days turn one's stomach upside down on a dealing floor. But even from the outside, such days are unnerving. The big question in the telecoms markets making the rounds at present is how the current market turmoil will affect the telcos. The 2008 financial crisis might provide some clues to what we could expect in 2011 and 2012, albeit in a less-pronounced fashion:
- Consumer spending on communications will remain pretty stable. During the last financial crisis, spending on communications remained largely untouched by the consumer. We do expect a slight migration towards flat rates for customers with the desire for greater cost certainties and towards prepaid by customers with the desire to lower their communication expenditure. One obvious danger in times of turmoil are price wars between service providers. They can offer only short-term growth relief, but at a high cost. Resulting poor margins will be felt for a long time.
- Businesses will put nonessential IT projects on hold or water them down. We have not yet seen evidence that COOs and IT departments have tapped the brakes on their tech buying, but they certainly have become more cautious. If the economies of the US or Europe go into recession — a possibility, but not our baseline forecast — that will hit IT budgets, as happened in 2008 and 2009. I am hearing from telecoms providers that their enterprise sales pipelines are already under pressure as customers slow their IT investments and look for ways to reduce their telecom services spending. Projects that support end-users with their sales efforts, e.g., sales force automation projects, are likely to be less affected than others.
- Unified communications and workplace virtualisation will benefit. Workplace virtualisation projects remain an important topic for businesses. TCO reductions and the move from capex- to opex-based payment models drive the uptake of cloud-based UC offerings and workplace virtualisation. Soft phones, instant messaging (IM), and video features have become a real alternative to desk phones in many organisations. The need to reduce office overheads further increases the acceptance for hot-desking and remote working. Hence, packaged solutions for the home-based and mobile worker become more attractive (including fixed and mobile access, security, identity management, soft phone clients, UC/video clients, hardware maintenance, etc.).
- Emerging markets operations will provide some respite. There are plenty of markets where there is still healthy growth. Turkey just reported GDP growth of nearly 9%, basically Chinese levels. India is close, as are many African countries. Telecoms providers with operations in most emerging markets will enjoy the tailwind of positive financial contributions to the group, just as in 2008. However, a word of caution — rising inflation in these emerging markets will lead to anti-inflation efforts that could overshoot, leading to slower-than-expected growth.
- The trend towards network sharing and combined rollout will increase: As telecoms providers scramble to reduce costs, telcos turn to the concept of managed networks and network sharing again. These initiatives promise better cost control and opportunities for new service offerings through consolidation of fragmented network assets. In the two years after the last crisis we saw landmark deals for network outsourcing and sharing, e.g. Going forward, we expect a lot more joint infrastructure projects between operators as they roll out LTE and FTTX networks. In this context, telecoms providers will also have to decide whether they continue their generous dividend payouts at the expense of capex.
- Counter-cyclical M&A opportunities will be ignored as usual: Telecoms providers should look to M&A opportunities in adjacent business areas such as billing, security, and business intelligence. However, we expect most telecoms providers to forego such opportunities despite the fact that valuations have fallen significantly in most markets — just as in 2008.
A level-headed approach in terms of crisis conveys an aura of clear vision and determination, two aspects that help attract customers. Erratic changes to strategy and go-to-market approaches are signals of desperation and scare customers away. Telecoms providers should use the current turmoil to push ahead the business transformation process towards ecosystems manager and solutions integrator with more and not less vigour.

Seattle Seahawks 2013 Super Bowl Betting Odds
The Seattle Seahawks are one of the hottest teams heading into the 2013 NFL playoffs putting up crazy points on offense and stifling opponents on defense. The only problem is they start their Super Bowl campaign on the road, where they don't seem like the same team. Let's check out the Seattle Seahawks 2013 Super Bowl Betting Odds heading into the playoffs. The Seahawks are listed at 11/1 odds to win the 2013 Super Bowl. Get the current 2013 Super Bowl Betting Lines now.
The Seahawks (11-5, 3-5 V) are on a five game win streak averaging 38.6 points per game, while allowing an average 12 points per game. Rookie QB Russell Wilson is a candidate for rookie of the year after passing for 3,118 yards with 26 touchdown passes. Wilson is being compared to Robert Griffin III and their stats prove it. Wilson has a passer rating of 100; Griffin's is 102.4. Wilson has thrown 26 touchdown passes; Griffin has thrown 20. Wilson has tossed 10 interceptions; Griffin has thrown five. Both have thrown 393 passes.
Wilson will take off running. He has carried 94 times for 489 yards compared to Griffin's 120 for 815 yards. But the book on Wilson is that when he leaves the pocket, he's usually looking to throw downfield more than Griffin.

While it's unfortunate that this powerful home team will have to travel, I believe that Russell Wilson's development as a quarterback and the defense's drastic improvement on the road will be enough to get through to the next round. Coach Pete Carroll should feel confident putting his squad up against anyone in this conference, and we predict Wilson, Marshawn Lynch and this tenacious Seattle defense will conquer the conference. Be sure to check out my early Super Bowl Picks!
On the road they've won two of their last five games, averaging 24.8ppg while giving up an average 19.8ppg.
The Bottom Line: the Seahawks are fully capable of winning big away from home. They have offense to match the Redskins, but the Skins can't match their defense. We recommend you check out the latest NFL Point Spreads heading into the 2013 Super Bowl.
