Dear community members,
first, I would like to apologize if I posted the message in wrong place.
I have the following hardware (ASRock): Intel Atom 330 + Nvidia Ion, which I used solely for home theater purpose via Ubuntu 9.10 + XBMC. Actually it worked perfectly until last week, when hard disk died and now I have an issue with fresh installation. So far I tried two options:
1. Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS + xbmc. Installation was easy, including Nvidia 304 driver. However I cannot watch HD movies using either VLC and XBMC because of low performance despite activated (in XBMC) VDPAU.
2. Ubuntu 9.10. Even I was able to install all updates, still neither Nvidia driver nor XBMC can be installed.
So, I would appreciate if you can pointed out best solution for my purposes taking into account my hardware.
Now I'm considering to turn to Kubuntu or Lubuntu. Or should I try something else?
Thank you in advance!

Jordana Brewster & Jenna Dewan Team Up at NYFW
They may have dressed in black and white, but Jordana Brewster and
Jenna Dewan added a glorious touch of color at New York Fashion Week today (September 11).
After taking in some shows, Panama-born Jordana, 32, who starred in "The Fast and the Furious," teamed up with Jenna to relax in the Mercedes-Benz Star Lounge.
The two stunning brunettes could almost be mistaken for siblings. Jordana looked stunning in a figure-hugging sleeveless dress while Jenna, 31, looked equally beautiful in a black and white dress with a daring, plunging neckline.
Away from the tents, Jenna is working on a saucy role she's landed on the FX thriller "American Horror Story." The series is expected to premiere in October.

USC Continues Impressive Early Season Run At Cal-Nevada Championships & Stanford Invitational
March 30, 2013
Cal-Nevada Results in PDF Form
Link to Stanford Invitational Results
USC continued its early season momentum with some strong performances at the Cal-Nevada Championships in La Jolla, Calif. and at the Stanford Invitational in Palo Alto, Calif. on March 29-30.
USC opened the Cal-Nevada championships on Friday, March 29 with two big wins in the throws. Junior Remington Conatser won the men's hammer throw competition with a best throw of 210-11 (64.30m). It was the second week in a row that his first throw won the competition, this time by over 25 feet. Senior Beau Falgout placed 15th with a season-best mark of 152-1 (46.36m).
Later, sophomore Alexandra Collatz won the women's discus throw with a PR of 178-6 (54.42m), bettering her second-place standing on USC's all-time list by seven inches. It is also the second-farthest throw this season by a college female. Freshman Tera Novy finished third with a strong throw of 163-7 (49.87m).
Junior Jessica Davis advanced to the 100m finals by winning the prelims with a wind-aided time of 11.71. Redshirt sophomore Charity Bruce placed 19th with a time of 12.45. In the finals on Saturday, March 30, Davis took home the 100m title with a time of 11.58 into a -0.2 wind which currently is the 17th-fastest time in the country.
Junior Loudia Laarman, one week after missing action with hamstring issues, cruised into the 200m finals by running 24.82 on Friday to place seventh among the qualifiers. Bruce finished 30th with a time of 26.49. In the finals on Saturday, Laarman placed third with a season-best time of 24.31.
Redshirt freshman Samantha Ojo ran a 68.03 400m dash on Friday to finish 34th and did not advance to the finals.
Redshirt junior Lauren Chambers won the women's hammer throw competition on Saturday with a best mark of 188-8 (57.52m). Collatz placed fifth with a throw of 172-10 (52.68m) and redshirt senior Ashley Pyka took sixth with a season-best throw of 170-4 (51.92m). Redshirt senior Farren Benjamin placed 17th with a throw of 144-9 (44.13m) and Novy placed 22nd with a mark of 141-5 (43.10m).
The women's 4x100m relay team of Davis, Laarman, sophomore Akawkaw Ndipagbor and junior Jenna Puterbaugh won the sprint relay Saturday with a season-best time of 44.62. That impressive early-season time also established a new stadium record and moves them up to the sixth-fastest women's 400m relay team this season.
Also on Saturday, senior Jennifer Stutland competed in the women's high jump and placed sixth with a season-best clearance of 5-4.25 (1.63m).
At the Stanford Invitational on Friday, sophomore Erica Capellino placed sixth in the Section 5 women's 1500m race with a time of 4:31.92. In the Section 6 race, freshman Katerina Berdousi placed ninth with a season-best time of 4:33.53. Senior Eric Battles took 10th place in the Section 7 men's 1500m race with a time of 3:55.21.
On Saturday, redshirt senior Shelby Buckley ran in the B Section of the women's 1500m and placed second in her heat and 15th overall with a time of 2:13.66.
The star of the day for the Trojans at Stanford was sophomore Myles Andrews who won his heat and placed second overall in the men's 1500m race with a PR of 1:48.95. At the conclusion of the race it was the third-fastest men's 800m race run by a collegian this season.

Pretty sure the handgun is a pellet gun.
My great grandfather passed away many years ago. He had some guns tucked away and my great grandmother recently decided to give them to us (his great grandchildren). So, my brother and I each get to choose one of these guns. My dad is in Pennsylvania visiting family and said he would bring them back. Here is a picture he took:
I know it's not the best picture, but can anyone help me identify what these are?
Pretty sure the handgun is a pellet gun.
The topmost shotgun is most likely a Remington, but I can't be sure.
The middle long gun is an inexpensive rifle-and-shotgun over/under, probably a .410 in the bottom barrel, probably a Savage.
The bottom shotgun, just above the pellet pistol, is an Ithaca.
The handgun is a Crossman or Benjamin, pump-up pellet pistol. (Most likely it's a Crossman.)
Yeah, I was guessing two of the long guns were pump action 12 gauges and the one in the middle was an over-under 20 gauge. But I didn't know what the pistol was. I looked at the picture again after MLB mentioned that the pistol was a pellet gun and I can see that. I would tell you what is written on the guns, but they are 1500 miles away. I didn't know if there were people here that were good enough to identify specifically what they were just by looking at the picture. Wishful thinking, I realize. But thanks for the help. I think I'll tell him to grab the two top guns and we'll see what they are when they get here.
- Remington model 870 Wingmaster pump-action shotgun, probably a 12 gauge with a 2-3/4" chamber. I had one very similar to this several decades ago. Might be a 16 gauge rather than a 12; these were very popular, almost the equal of the twelves in the late 60s/early 70s.
- Stevens (possibly Savage) over-under .22 rifle/.410 shotgun. It might be an early 22-410 Tenite from Stevens, or a Savage model 24B (one was very similar to the other). If the forend is plastic (can't tell for sure in the photo), then it's probably the Stevens, but the Tenite stock was probably broken and replaced with the cheaper and easier-to-find Savage stock. If the forend is just a darker-color wood, then it's probably the Savage, but there are many sub-models in this series, so the 24B is just a guess based on how common they were. Button on the right side of receiver is slid up to fire the top barrel, and down to fire the bottom (selector broke fairly regularly when gun was used a lot). Hammer must be manually cocked for each shot.
- Ithaca model 37 pump-action shotgun, probably a 12 gauge, and if so, definitely a 2-3/4 inch chamber. I currently own one of these; had it passed-down to me when my grandfather died. Like the Remington, this might also be a 16 gauge; too hard to tell from the photo. Gun is fairly unique in that it is loaded AND ejects empty shells through the port on the bottom of the receiver.
- I concur with the Crossman/Benjamin guesses. Probably a .177 caliber multi-pump model with a rotary loading port on the top tube (barrel). Put safety "on" and pump it up, say, 8 times (don't get your fingers pinched between the pump handle and the cylinder tube!); twist/pull the bolt to the rear to cock the mechanism and open the loading port, place a pellet in the port, close the bolt, move safety to "off", pull trigger. Repeat. I owned a Benjamin like this one in my youth; different grips and a wooden pump handle, but otherwise very similar.
Ditto to all the info on the third shotgun provided by Steve and DJ. It's an Ithaca 37 for sure. I received one in a similar fashion not long ago, and several people provided info on it and manuals for it in this thread:
Ithaca Model 37 and Lee-Enfield
The one in my thread dates from about the 1960s, and from appearances, it looks like yours might be older...could be collectible, I'm not sure.
Interesting tidbit about Ithacas: I have a friend whose father owns an older Ithaca, and she herself has a newer one. She shoots trap, and found out that newer Ithacas are not made as sturdily (pressed parts vs. cut parts or some such), so the older Ithacas are both considerably more reliable and valuable than the new models.
Thank you all for the info. I'm hoping to get the Ithaca, but not because it might be more valuable. I don't plan on selling whatever gun I end up with. The Ithaca just sounds kind of interesting.

Chile court rules for Indians against Barrick Gold
FILE – In this May 23, 2013 file photo, mining machinery and barrels with chemicals are shown in the facilities of Barrick Gold Corp's Pascua-Lama project in northern Chile. A Chilean appeals court ruled against the world's largest gold mining company on Monday, July 15, 2013, favoring Chilean Indians who accuse Barrick Gold Corp. of contaminating their water downstream and creating more doubts about the future of the world's highest gold mine. (AP Photo/Jorge Saenz, File)
SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) — A Chilean appeals court ruled against the world's largest gold mining company on Monday, favoring Chilean Indians who accuse Barrick Gold Corp. of contaminating their water downstream and creating more doubts about the future of the world's highest gold mine.
The judges in the northern city of Copiapo unanimously ruled that Barrick must keep [auth] all its environmental promises before moving forward with construction of the Pascua-Lama mine at the very top of Chile's mountainous border with Argentina. They also said Barrick must monitor the condition of three glaciers next to the mine project.
Chile's environmental watchdog agency already ordered construction stopped until Barrick builds systems to keep the mine from contaminating the watershed below, and Barrick executives have publicly committed the company to fulfilling the requirements of its environmental permit.
But Monday's ruling goes beyond that by demanding repairs to damage in the watershed below, by calling for increased monitoring of the impact on surrounding glaciers, and by opening up the project's environmental license for review. The judges found no evidence of contamination due to mine construction, but said the watershed could face "imminent danger" without more environmental protections.
Attorney Lorenzo Soto, who represents about 550 Diaguita Indians in the case, said this review might even kill the $8.5 billion mine, which has been under development for more than seven years. "The project's conditions aren't the same as they were in 2006. New conditions could be established, and we don't discard any scenario, including the closing of the project," Soto said.
Scarce river water is vital to life in Chile's Atacama Desert, and the Diaguitas fear that the Pascua-Lama mine above them is ruining their resource.
Barrick acknowledged the ruling in a statement late Monday that did not say whether or not the company would appeal.
The company said it "is committed to diligently working to complete all of the projects the regulatory requirements" and is working with Chile's environmental regulator to construct a water management system by 2014, after which time it expects to renew construction on the actual mine.
Still, the ruling could mean more lengthy delays for the binational mine, which was initially expected to be producing gold and silver already. While Argentine officials are eager to keep building, most of the ore is buried on the Chilean side. On the Argentine side, where Barrick fuels a third of San Juan province's economy, officials have been watching closely and trying to figure out how to preserve thousands of jobs.
Barrick's stock traded up slightly Monday at $15 a share after reaching near-historic lows due to falling gold prices and Pascua-Lama setbacks.

Some exciting women's games dotted the first round lineup as Syracuse avenged two losses to Georgetown, James Madison pulled off an impressive comeback to top Stanford and Virginia held off Towson to prevail and advance to the quarterfinals.
Lindsey Gilbride, Duke
The Blue Devils trailed by three with just under eight minutes to play but rattled off the final three goals of the game to top Vanderbilt in one of the more exciting matchups of the first round. Gilbride scored five goals and added an assist in the win but it was her final goal that had the biggest impact. Sarah Bullard, who scored the game-tying goal, hit Gilbride with a pass and she finished with one second left on the clock to give Duke the win. The score marks Gilbride's team-leading fourth game winning goal of the season.
James Madison
The Dukes found themselves trailing Stanford 7-4 at halftime but managed to rally in the second half to come away with a 9-8 win. James Madison strung together a series of draw controls to start the second half, scoring the first four goals of the frame while holding Stanford to just a single goal in the final 30 minutes of play. Casey Ancarrow, who led the Dukes with three goals and an assist, scored on a free position shot with 11:35 left to play, which proved to be the game-winner.
First-Round Results
The Tigers fell to Virginia 14-12 on Saturday but it was what they did after the game that earns them this award. Prior to the game, the team found gold pins online of an angel holding a lacrosse stick and as a surprise for the Cavaliers, gave them out to the players during the post game handshake. Towson also wore orange sweatbands with "YL" embroidered on them in honor of Yeardley Love.
Many teams have done this since Love's passing, including Georgetown and Syracuse, who each sported similar wristbands during Saturday's game. I'm sure other teams have also taken part in honoring Love but these were the ones I saw play so they're the only ones I can confirm.
A day full of emotion for Virginia, the Cavaliers took the field with teammate Yeardley Love's mother and sister in the stands looking for a win against Towson and a chance to spend another week together. They got it. Five different players had multiple goal days as Caity Whitely, Julie Gardner, and Charlie Finnigan each scored three to lead all scorers. Kaitlin Duff had two goals and three assists and Tewaaraton finalist Brittany Kalkstein added two goals and two assists while also dominating draw controls. The Cavaliers will take on North Carolina, who they beat in overtime in the regular season, in the quarterfinals.
Morgan Kelly, James Madison
For any comeback, two things are essential: winning draws and solid goalie play. The Dukes got both as Morgan Kelly made 10 saves, seven of those coming in the second half as the defense held Stanford at bay. Kelly made two huge saves with less than three minutes remaining to preserve the win.
Georgetown won the first two games of the season but the Orange came up with the win that mattered most, topping the No. 4 seed and Big East rival in the first round. Syracuse was dominant on draw controls, winning 17 to Georgetown's eight as the Hoyas put four different players on the draw but couldn't solve Big East Midfielder of the Year Christina Dove. Goalie Liz Hogan played strong out of the gate, making nine saves in the first half to hold off the Georgetown offense, who never seemed to get into a rhythm.
Karri Ellen Johnson, Maryland
The Terrapins easily dispatched MAAC Champion Marist from the NCAA tournament, topping the Red Foxes 20-5. Sophomore attacker Karri Ellen Johnson continued to be an offensive juggernaut for the Terps, scoring five goals in the win. Johnson has now scored in all 42 games she's played in for Maryland, which is currently the third-longest streak in Division I. Johnson also led Maryland's ride, causing a team-high four turnovers.
Danielle Spencer, Northwestern
When you consider the amount of talent that's gone through the Northwestern program, it seems setting a new record at would be no easy feat. Danielle Spencer's five draw controls against Notre Dame gives her 93 on the season, which surpasses Kristen Kjellman's 91 and sets the preogram's new single-season record. Spencer also scored two goals to bring her season total to 50.

What is wilderness and what is it doing in poetry?
"Wilderness. So overwritten it should probably be granted a reprieve from definition, maybe even a lengthy sabbatical from speech." So the poet Don McKay writes in The Muskwa Assemblage. McKay is one of a handful of Canadian poets known for their intense connection with both philosophy and nature, or the land, or the thinking and singing of the land. I am intrigued by the writing of this group: Tim Lilburn, Robert Bringhurst, Jan Zwicky and Dennis Lee, all of whom have written about their complicated relationship to wilderness, and nature, both in their poetry and in the essay form. I'll try to touch on each of these poets over the next month, and also on an anthology of poetry (that includes an excerpt from McKay), and brings some of these more contemplative lyric voices together with less traditional ways of covering similar terrain.
I wonder what we think of when we think "nature" or "wild?" So does McKay: "Uninhabited? There is, says Simone Weil, an impersonal part of the soul. I think something like that part must be the place where wilderness resonates, where we sense ourselves to be, not masters of creation, not technological wunderkinds, but beings among begins…" Of course I find it hard to rid my mind of technology given that what is recorded, what we know, is largely due to technologies. We are inseparable. But I like to hear McKay's musings on the matter for these questions remain just that for me, questions.
Edward Burtynsky's photographic practice began the moment he realized that for every upward extension in the human world there must be a depression, and so on. He has made a career out of working backward from moments of witnessing, tracing the materiality of our products, from computer chips to oil. This tracing is fascinating. Finding the edges, where the seams are: bits of wild peak out amid cloverleaf's and the sawed off ends of parking lots where the wolves prowl. The extreme shifts are instructive: parachuting from New York, or Toronto, or Montreal to a small lake in the Ottawa Valley, or to Botanical Beach, or the banks of the Skeena, one of the last great untapped rivers in North America, and now threatened by one of several plans for pipelines and other energy projects that will drastically change that last bit of "wild."
On the other hand, walking in Ferry Island, a small island park in the middle of The Skeena river and in the town of Terrace, one realizes that the gorgeous trees one is walking in are all planted by human hands. Like so much of the area, the island was logged a hundred or so years ago. Human hands ordered the forest, as we see above, and put in the road to the park. Human presence is embedded in the trees, in the paths, on the rocks. And traces of the wild mark the deep city. Here is a bit from Lisa Robertson's "Fourth Walk," from the Office for Soft Architecture:
The sky over the defunct light-industrial district was still the sky, less sublime, but more articulate. And walking what we witnessed was, like a flickering appetite, the real end of sunlight, buildings torn out of the earth and forgotten, the superabundant likenesses of pictured products collapsed into our dream and over and over in the dark the flickering appetite now bunched under the ribs. We were partly in another place. It's hard not to disappear. I pondered this ritual of crisis and form as my guide and I walked the unprofitable time of the city, the pools of slowness, the lost parts…(91)
Where is the uninhabited? The lonely industrial parks? The arctic? I try to come to terms with place, and of the 'appropriate' subjects for poetry, particularly for what we think of as nature, or eco-critical poetry. For Robertson, the city is pastoral. Filled with beauty and possibility. Filled with tensions too, strange juxtapositions, a blank canvas for thinking, and a catalog of evidence for gathering. A place where human drama plays out and accumulates in layers, one over the other. (Thinking here of Jean Luc Nancy's densely intriguing The Creation of the World or Globalization, where he suggests that the world has lost its ability to form world rather it has gained instead the capacity of proliferating…)
So what does poetry yearn for? Imagine you had a land, and then you lost it: that is pastoral, as Robertson reminds us. It's a simple gesture. We want things the way they were: untouched. We want to elude human presence, but of course we take us with ourselves wherever we go. What is wild? Do you have examples of wilderness rendered in contemporary poetry? How does the notion of wild play out for you?

sina, not necessarily true, of course, as is so often the case with the "fabulous" quote.
i would offer that while humans do incessantly chatter in ways that we sometimes understand, insects probably communicate and eat, proportionally speaking, just as much as we do, perhaps more. almost immediately, bees and termites come to mind….
sina, termites and bees have tried to displace me on several, sometimes very painful and expensive occasions.
regardless, the quote makes no case for displacement. perhaps you meant the quote was fabulous in terms of its fictitious sense, rather than as something very good. amusing, however, may have been a more accurate assessment. those words seem to be gathered more in jest than anything else.
Interesting that "wilderness" is an untranslatable word, going from English to Spanish. You have a choice between "naturaleza," which is fuzzy, pleasant, greenish, and somewhat general, and "desierto," which is primarily but not necessarily arid as in English, but certainly stark, uninhabited and brutish.
"no hamburgers
hard to walk in heels"
I associate wilderness with "purple herbies", which is what we called the "burgers" we made out of fried canned blueberry pie mix, when we ran out of other foodstuffs up in the Ontario woods. That night a bear came, & ate all our remaining purple herbies, & then rolled around moaning in front of our tent for a very long time. We assumed he had an upset stomach.
>Or perhaps delight?
Now that we never considered… but you may be right. They were so heavy we were almost glad the bear ate them.
Yes, delightful, those old days! I was followed back to camp by a bear once. A little nerve-wracking. The timber wolves were spookier (at night, howling).
Wilderness for me = woods & swamplands of northern MN, Ontario. The whole region emanates some kind of mysterious, cold, elusive, mournful aura. Very Russian. Birch trees & owls. Ultimate quiet.
I think wilderness is a place where people have relearned their true importance in the long slow dream of this planet. I think wilderness can enter the city, and the finest poet in the deepest wood can lose the touch of wildness forever with a single footstep from this path. I think we can all find that path every day, under pavement, in an aircraft/vimana, i n a library musing over wood-bound glories of the past – the trees can spring up around us in the very wires and stones, yea in the very bones of your skull, made from the chalk of Mother's bones and animated by the mud of her everbirthing, everfertile womb.
@HenryG: I've only experienced the Eastern woods once upon a long canoe jaunt, in Algonquin park. I spooked at my first moose (though it was going to come and Git me) and crossed a lake in record time. A fine peace, poking through wet frogfilled flats so that it seems you are floating across a drowned prairie, the waters only inches deep and many frogs hidden brown green in the whorled drowned grasses.
I used to get my outdoors kicks riding deertrails out here in TFL's, parks, and anywhere else that seemed good. Now I get 'em through the perforated walls of my manywindowed trailer, unless I limp to the store.
Thanks everyone for their reminisces/thoughts. A pleasure after a looooong morning transcribing.
Run twenty-one dawg Fort Yukon t Mayo's Landin the warmest it ever got was fifty-six below.
ps: re: riding: a pedal-bike, mind, what we once called a mountain bike. I still have my longest-lived and finest horse, a hand-built '93 Rocky Mountain Blizzard. Samurai steel. It doesn't ring when you let go of the brakes anymore (like a bell it was), but it still rides itself in that mysterious way that lets you enjoy the woods.
And no, I never skid(ded – crippled now), unless it's an emergency or an established fire road where one might use speeds in the excessive-insane range were one so inclined.
It's possible to vibrate your eyeballs so much you can't see, on the right terrain. Deer know the best ways for people but they are awfully agile.
I had never heard of wordbots. I checked the web which didn't help much. Evidently something like the following. The above script is an attempt to render spoken English a la Mark Twain. Mayo's Landing is in Canada. The original speaker was American. Canadian dialect is not like as above.

"Generally speaking, a howling wilderness does not howl: it is the imagination of the traveler that does the howling."

"A fine peace, poking through wet frogfilled flats so that it seems you are floating across a drowned prairie, the waters only inches deep and many frogs hidden brown green in the whorled drowned grasses."
Your moose reminded me of a trip about 40 yrs ago, canoing with my brother on a remote little river near Lake Vermilion, MN. We came around a reedy bend, & there was a large moose, standing in the water, about 6 ft away. We just floated along, very still. & she watched us drift on by.
My mother's nickname in college was "Moose", because she spent so much time away from class & out in the woods (she LOOKS nothing like a moose…). Much later she specialized in a genre of oil paintings called "forest floors"…
One of her sons (Bill) became an arctic biologist, mapping the vegetation in the Arctic Circle… his wilderness stories could put us all to shame…
Walking the rhodedendrum-sheltered road
from McLoughlin's to a cottage, I became connected
to the patchwork of field, bog and peat smoke:
where even dead brown heads of wild rhubarb fell
into being with dog-bark and bird call, puncturing
the silence wrapping the island completely
.. save for the foam-white horse-water prancing
at the Atlantic's Eastern edge.
And calling to the half-bright moon as a ruby-pink
finger of crimson cloud ringed atop of Slievemore
mountain, gently paled to white mist and disappeared
into the ether that warm May night – I felt
a silken velvet light of Achill hold within
its grasp, all the waves of time that ever broke
upon the ridges of this nunatak mountain
and wind-ravaged fir trees .. always ever-blooming
in the moment always now no sweeping hand can measure
silence in a tribal heart beating its Bunacurry blood beneath the May moon.
My then-wife Jan and I hiked into the Siskiyou Mountains in June 1978, backpacking in from a place on route 96 named Fort Goff almost to the Oregon border. A couple of long days to aptly named Lonesome Lake at timberline (maybe 5600 feet) where we hung out a day and two nights. One day walking in we saw two bears, they crossed the trail ahead of us like great furry pigs huh-huh-huhing it down into underbrush. We saw no other human beings the whole time we were in there.
The next to last day we hiked out halfway to a place we'd stayed the first night, Sugar Pine Camp, on the shoulder of a big hill in very deep woods. We had an operatic fight over dinner, the marriage was almost over. Possibly relevant. We made up and crawled into sleeping bags and were awakened at midnight by the godawfulest racket I ever hope to hear.
It was muttering and screaming and whistling and gnashing with a weird harmonica-like whine on the inhale, and then continued. I shone the flashlight uphill in that direction. Nothing, trees and black shadow of treetrunks. I spoke up, using all the projection and mellow authority I would employ to bring a class of unruly fifth graders in line. I said we don't want any trouble but it's time for you to leave now.
King Kong noises in the blackness holding place awhile and then started to move away uphill. Moving away fast uphill in the pitch black but heard for a long way and then finally fading into crickets. We looked for tracks in the morning but it was all deep pine duff.
A couple of months later somebody played me a tape purported to have been made in the wilds by Bigfoot seekers. It was the same sound we heard that night.
I never did get a poem out of it.
"Imagine you had a land, and then you lost it: that is pastoral, as Robertson reminds us. It's a simple gesture." Absolutely stunning. Thank you, Sina, for this invitation: trance, posture, site. The wild, for me, has been periphery. Literally, jungle space. The skin of a white – -WHITE! – cobra strewn over a rotted log. That you pluck with a stick. Stepping into that space, and understanding, from its spaciousness and quality of light, that it was in fact: culled. Re-planted. A post-colonial forest. And what it would take to go further in. (Text. Lantern.) Here, ideally, I would quote Brecht but I am shivery from taking my dog from a walk.
"As everyone with lungs breathes the space between the hands and the space around the hands and the space of the room and the space of the building that surrounds the room and the space of the neighborhoods nearby and the space of the cities and the space of the regions and the space of the cities and the space of the regions and the space of the nations and the space of the continents and islands and the space of the oceans and the space of the troposphere and the space of the stratosphere and the space of the mesosphere in and out…"/Juliana Spahr herself. In a long poem, the chance to transcribe endocrine flows as they pass through bodies and territories of different kinds. The question of pollution mixed with the question of the meme — of what enters an environment of its own accord. A record of a pathway, a pollutant, that's not always a visual presence. The poem itself as the cull. As a place where the dirty bits shore up. A shore that glitters not with sand, not with pleasure, but debris.
The Yedi.
The yedigarabombayarniskaybubbabblebeebooshnyash.
Love that book of Spahr's.
And yes, "a record of a pathway, a pollutant, that's not always a visual presence" absolutely. I recall driving across the prairie with the fabulous Peter Butala, a rancher in Saskatchewan, north of the Montana border. He gave his 1,000 acres to the Nature Conservancy shortly before he passed away. Looking at the land with him revealed the layers of intrusion, visible–as in farm lands–and non-visible, as in the toxins pooling in the ditches along the road side…an amazing person. A big loss. Not to be romantic, but practical: what he knew of the land, how he read it, was remarkable.
If you want to spend time in this landscape, look into the Stegner House and give the town of EastEnd a big wave from me.
Or the Yedi. Glad to know you're not a bot Mabool.
I'm not the Yedi. The habitat was as you describe: western wilds of 1970s, but the stenographic account comes from the Internet in recent times. The Yedi is no longer on the Internet. Some language in the above vein is on my blog, scrambled. Those who misappropriate the Yedi's language are torn limb form limb.
Worth reading when critically thinking the category of 'wilderness' –
I will go there one day. I have always wanted to. "Also, I like the idea of the "possible" or that which you are looking for being just outside the periphery." [Your words]:Transplanted from the vertical index beneath Thom's newest post, in which you currently exist.
a lot of canadian wilderness poetry or nature poetry or eco-poetry is what we already do to the natural: own it, reform it, make it bite-sized and palatable. even story-telling we do that. it's natural. and human. I think you have to come at every poem understanding that whatever it is you are writing ABOUT is greater than any rendering you can muster.
this thinking about eco-poetry and nature poetry is important and McKay, Bringhurst, Zwicky, Lee et al. are doing a fine job. ownership of the natural carries on unabated, however, and I wonder if we can't think of new ways to relate, new ways to represent, other methods that do something greater than what's already done in that genre of poetry. it's been the same for years, now. we think we're reverent toward the wilderness, but we're not or we are (too much) or it's not enough: we're still making list poems about the ditch flowers and appropriating the voices of the trees – I dare canadians to do something different.
Do you think the Canadian poetic response to wilderness has anything to do with your wilderness being so vast and northerly? I'm speculating on how this orientation might differ from continental US-ers' attitudes towards our own wilderness, which occurs mainly in pockets circumscribed by developed metropolis, or in vast containments in the interior west. I was in the Albertan Rockies once and Canadian wilderness to me seems to stretch on and on, reaching for polar north. And I think also of Glenn Gould's Idea of North…
If we're going to talk about such Canadian stereotypes can we stipulate that virtually none of the country's better [known] poets fit it? Not Cohen, not Ondaatje, not Bök, not Solie, not Clarke or Simpson on the print side and certainly not Gamble, Kristalo, Lindley or Watson among the onliners.
Whether or not Canada has more Lampmans than the U.S. has Thoreaus is something I'll leave to the statisticians. There's just too many variables for this simple mind to process.
FWIW, I was responding originally to Gillian's remark:
we're still making list poems about the ditch flowers and appropriating the voices of the trees – I dare canadians to do something different.
My point is that no one needs to "dare" Canadian poets to do something that most of them have been doing for longer than any of us have been alive. As you stated, "I think Canadians do do something different."
"Or should one just not speak because there are too many variables?"
Well, we could, at least, define them and put them into perspective. Are we talking about poets whose readerships extend beyond their circle of friends, family, students and sympathizers? If so then, as I mentioned, any attempt to cite the expanse as a defining characteristic of Canadian poetry fails. If talking about all Canadian poets, good, bad or indifferent, we might suppose:
1) s% write primarily about the onerous/onanistic ownership of a navel;
2) t% write primarily about philosophy, psychology, mythology and/or literature;
3) u% write primarily about language itself;
4) v% write primarily about politics, current events and/or history;
5) w% write primarily about romance;
6) x% write primarily about other traditional genres or themes: drama, comedy, elegy, life, death, etc.
7) y% write primarily about other specific genres or themes;
8) z% are too weird, incoherent or versatile to be categorized.
Plug in any figures you figure are appropriate. (Me, I keep going over 100% before I get to #6.) How many are left to be considered nature poets? Feel free to run the numbers again for poems. Is the percentage of wilderness poems/poets anywhere near double digits, let alone the majority? If not, what does this say about the stereotype that Canadian poets are fascinated by the environment?
As for the notion "that we are further behind in terms of what we have and will do", the less said the better. FWIW, if I were trying to make an argument that contemporary Canadian poets are fixated on the wilderness–does this include Toronto and Montreal poets?–I would have contrasted them to, say, British ones rather than to those of a country whose Poet Laureates have included Robert Frost and, more recently, Ted Kooser. That's just me, though.
Incidentally, as of 2001 Canada's population was 79.6% urban. A year earlier, the percentage of U.S. citizens living in urban environments was 79.219%.
Best regards,
One clarification, what I was referring to with the statement "that we are further behind in terms of what we have and will do" is actually development, marking and reshaping the land.
Ahem. As you may know, I'm the furthest thing from a Canadian nationalist (assuming that isn't an oxymoron), especially insofar as 21st century print poetry is concerned. Nevertheless, I would hope that the Manitoba floodway (along with the Canal, one of only two human accomplishments visible from the moon), James Bay and Labrador power projects (which provide most of the hydroelectricity for the central and eastern states, respectively), Expo '67 and the cutting edge technology of the tarsands are about all that needs to be said about Canada's ability to reshape the land. Space, too, if we consider the Canadarm.
Best regards,

A proposed deal with Verizon Wireless and the Town of Bronson appears to be on shaky ground.
Verizon representatives approached the town in October, requesting that the company be allowed to rent a portion of town-owned property at James H. Cobb Park where Verizon would construct a cell phone tower.
The company had offered to pay $1,000 a month with an additional 2 percent fee tacked on each year. The initial proposal was a 25-year contract, bringing in an estimated $384,000 during that time.

Micro/nano particle melting with spherical symmetry and surface tension
McCue, Scott W., Wu, Bisheng, & Hill, James M. (2009) Micro/nano particle melting with spherical symmetry and surface tension. IMA Journal of Applied Mathematics, 74, pp. 439-457.
|Submitted Version (PDF 274kB)
The process of melting a small spherical particle is treated by setting up a two-phase Stefan problem. Surface tension is included through the Gibbs-Thomson condition, the effect of which is to decrease the melting temperature as the particle radius decreases. Analytical results are derived via a small-time expansion and also through large Stefan number asymptotics. Numerical solutions are computed with a front-fixing scheme, and these results suggest that the model exhibits finite-time blow-up, in the sense that both the interface speed and the temperature gradient in the solid phase (at the interface) will become unbounded at some time before complete melting. The near blow-up behaviour appears to be similar to that encountered in the ill-posed problem of melting a superheated solid (without surface tension), and may help explain the onset of abrupt melting observed in some experiments with nanoscaled particles.

What is happening right now is if the car is revved above 4000rpm, it almost dies, or does if you push the issue. The sensor that is in there now is one I got from ebay for around $80. The shop says it is throwing weird signals at 4000rpm.
They are saying this is caused by the wheel above or pulley, whatever the proper name is, 'bouncing around'. ie, it's not doing a nice clean spin, it is 'orbiting' a little horizontally.
Well, if there is some abnormal movement in any of the pulleys or the harmonic balancer, you should be able to see it with your naked eye. Ask them to point it out to you.
I agree with Ethirty that the CPS cannot be read live. If there are any problems with the CPS, you'll get a CPS sensor error code. Pull your codes via the stomp test or a code reader and see what you've got there.
I'm not sure if they are screwing with your head though. Their description of the problem seems pretty detailed. Why don't you try to look at the engine as best as you can while it is running to see if anything looks amiss? Either that or you'll have to see it when it runs while winched up.
Be careful when you lean over into the engine bay. Brace yourself with your hands correctly to avoid falling in case you somehow slip (it happens).

A fairly large number of ceramics from Faenza, especially pieces in the famous "Garafano" pattern bear the initials CACF. This is not the mark of a single artist or one studio but rather represents an organization or more specifically a cooperative of many Faentine ceramists.
On Wednesday, November 22, 1944, a flight of B-25 bombers of the U.S. Twelfth Air Force carried out a bombing raid against German defenses and troop concentrations in the city of Faenza. The historic ceramics factory of the great Achille Farina was partially destroyed in that offensive attack. The building had housed the Farina pottery since the early 1800's. Also destroyed in the bombing was the Ceramics Museum of Faenza and a large number of priceless antiquities were destroyed. By the end of spring 1945, the bombs stopped falling on the Italian landscape. The War was over and by autumn of that year reconstruction had already begun. For the residents of Faenza that rebuilding process required them to make a monumental decision. Pottery making had been the heart of the city's economy for five hundred years but the wonderful, artistic and fragile majolica pieces for which Faenza has been so famous had fallen out of favor. What the country, and the rest of the world, needed now was not delicate, artistic, decorative vases and plates to grace the home but rather sturdy, practical ceramics to replace the household tableware destroyed in the war. Of what use was an expensive vase when an ordinary, inexpensive cup to hold drinking water couldn't be found in the cupboard? Most new factories in Faenza yielded to practicality and the lure of economic security.
Some potters refused to yield to common sense. They refused to give up five hundred years of artistic heritage. They reasoned that if the skills necessary for the production of fine majolica was not re-introduced into the economy right away the art might be lost and Faenza would become just another center of pottery production. They were resolved to regroup the Faenza artists before their talents were dispersed across Italy. In the closing months of 1945 they formed the "Cooperative of Ceramic Artisans of Faenza" and restored the kilns of the partially destroyed Farina pottery. CACF did not, however, purchase the company name or the trademark associated with Achille Farina, a six pointed star. They did, however, use a variation of the Farina mark as a way to focus attention on the very best tradition of Faenza's proud tradition. Achille's mark became a constant reminder to the artists of the cooperative that they had a responsibility to Faenza's glorious past to create their finest work. In 1947 they moved the factory across the road and dropped the symbol of the six–pointed star used by Farina to mark his wares. CACF remains the most important of Faenza's artistic ceramics factories and it has never forgotten its purpose of maintaining a proud five hundred year heritage. Of all of CACF's myriad designs, the Ferniani Garafano remains its most popular.
In 1996 the cooperative officially changed its name to "Immagine Faentina" but mark found on their products remains CACF.

"We added these stickers to goodie bags and they instantly turned a generic bag into a personalized gift. Simple and 1 of a kind!"
"We were looking for a sticker photo for my daughter's sorority recruitment cards. It needed to be small. The size was perfect, but I would've liked to have seen a few more designs. In particularly more "grown up" designs. The ones you currently offer have a baby/child theme."
"I have ordered this product now twice for my son's birthday parties. I have received many compliments on it. It is easy and you don't have to spend $2-3 dollars every time for a card which gets thrown away anyways."
"Used on floral picture with this and it looked wonderful. My flower had pinkish/orange tints and matched the color on the sticker beautifully."
"My son is 9 years old, doesn't really care what tag is on a gift for his friends. He did think it was cool that there is a soccer ball on it, though!"

EU Common Agricultural Policy round table event
A sound Common Agricultural Policy provides the right instruments to farmers in different agricultural realities to operate sustainable practices which produce adequate high-quality food at competitive prices, a round table event heard recently.
The event, part of 'Return to the Future', an EU-funded campaign in Bulgaria, Estonia, Malta and Portugal, marking 50 years since the CAP was introduced to ensure sufficient food provision to the EU population, was held at Floriana's Grand Hotel Excelsior. It was attended by agricultural representatives and stakeholders from the four countries, which have similar farming realities.
European Commission Representation head Martin Bugelli said Malta's challenges were still its geography and characteristics, like the level and type of soil. Malta needed instruments to compete not only with other EU countries but also with non-member states. He called for better understanding of the member states' different agricultural realities to ensure a CAP that catered for the individual and specific needs of the different farming communities, while protecting food safety, the environment and animal welfare.
"Small member states like Malta deserve preferential treatment that reflects the country's agricultural reality," said Justin Zahra, director of agriculture at the Resources and Rural Affairs Ministry. He said the CAP is vital to provide Maltese farmers the right instruments to develop their activity at a profit.
"Since Malta joined the EU, the value added that CAP brought to Maltese agriculture was among, other things, the transformation which took place in the way farmers operate and the technology they now have. The farmers' mindset became more professional. Malta today has fewer farmers but a better quality product," Dr Zahra added.
Kooperattivi Malta's Francis Galea warned that Maltese produce was suffering due to stiff competition from imports. He explained that Maltese agriculture and biodiversity would benefit from better education of farmers and consumers. The CAP could also be more flexible in facilitating education, research and exchanges of know-how, human capital and ideas among member states, he added.
Majjistral Action Group Foundation's Marisa Marmarà explained why a new CAP 2014-2020 will favour short supply chains to create greater value added to producers and the sustainability of the food chain. The benefit of such an approach is that the farmer supplies according to demand, curbing wastage of produce and resources, and increasing quality and sustainability.

WordPress Dashboard Blank Page Display SolutionBy Angsuman Chakraborty, Gaea News Network
Monday, July 10, 2006
After moving over my test blog to the new server, I noticed that the Admin Dashboard (with tons of unnecessary feeds) wasn't displaying. It shows just a blank page.
Apache error log had a very interesting message:
Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 0 bytes)
The solution is simple.
1. Increase memory_limit in php.ini to a higher value. I have set it to 64MB:
memory_limit = 64M
2. Restart the Apache HTTP Server. On linux that would be:
service httpd restart
Note: The same technique can be used to increase maximum allocated memory for any php scripts.
An even better solution is to replace it with WordPress Dashboard hack.

Pfeiffer syndrome
Pfeiffer syndrome is a disorder that involves craniosynostosis – premature fusion of the fibrous joints of the bones in the skull, and the shape of the hands and feet.
Pfeiffer syndrome happens when there is a mutation of either the FGFR1 of FGFR2 genes. These genes provide instructions for making proteins known as fibroblast growth receptors 1 and 2. Among their multiple functions, these proteins signal immature cells to become bone cells during embryonic development. A mutation in either the FGFR1 or FGFR2 gene alters protein function and causes prolonged signaling, which can promote the premature fusion of skull bones and affect the development of bones in the hands and feet.
FGFR1 is located on Chromosome 8, and FGFR2 is located on Chromosome 10. Interestingly, there are other health conditions related to these genes as well as Pfeiffer syndrome. FGFR1 is also associated with Kallmann syndrome – which deals with puberty and smell; FGFR1 has also been found to be involved with a number of types of cancers (stomach, prostate, pancreatic, esophageal, ovarian, testicular, breast, and head and neck cancers). FGFR2 is also associated with Apert syndrome, Crouzon syndrome, Jackson-Weiss syndrome, Beare-Stevenson syndrome, and it is also related to cancer as well.
So, what happens to the person affected by this gene mutation?
Many of the characteristic facial features of Pfeiffer syndrome result from premature fusion of the skull bones. Abnormal growth of these bones leads to bulging and wide-set eyes, a high forehead, an underdeveloped upper jaw, and a beaked nose. 50% of children with Pfeiffer syndrome have hearing loss; dental problems and vision problems are also common.
In people with Pfeiffer syndrome, the thumbs and great toes are wide and bend away from the other digits. Unusually short fingers and toes (brachydactyly) are also common, and there may be some webbing or fusion between the digits (syndactyly).
The three types of Pfeiffer syndrome
Type 1 Pfeiffer syndrome is caused by mutations in either the FGFR1 or FGFR2 gene. Types 2 and 3 are caused by mutations in the FGFR2 gene, and have not been associated with changes in the FGFR1 gene.
Type 1 is considered to be the mild form of Pfeiffer's. People born with Type 1 have the fused sutures in their skull, the recessed mid-face, and the finger and toe abnormalities. Their neurological development and intelligence are normal though.
Type 2 and Type 3 are considered the severe forms of Pfeiffer's. The difference between the two is that Type 2's are born with a cloverleaf shaped head, and more extensive fusing of the skull. In both types there are problems with the nervous system and there are neurological and developmental problems.

It's that time again - almost spring - when a young man's fancies turn lightly to free agency and the draft. Equally, it's much like love in that there's often more wishful thinking than reason to the players that are mentioned. That being the case, I thought I'd jot some things down regarding important areas of the Broncos' rebuilding project.
John Elway has confirmed exactly what a lot of our readers have expressed hope for - that the Broncos intend to build through the draft and fill gaps in free agency. The thing is, just as it is with Denver's own, that most free agents would just as soon not move and have to rebuild relationships without a lot of good reasons, most of them green. The Carl Nickses of the league aren't likely shots, to put it mildly, although you never really know who will become available or have a tiff with their team. However - there are a lot of good players available who can help Denver immediately via either free agency or the draft. I'll be covering this by position, post-Combine, to add some draft options, but here are some rarely stressed basics to think seriously about.
First on the list? Remember to check for unrestricted free agents (UFA) vs. restricted free agents (RFA). Folks should keep in mind that taking on an RFA would cost the Broncos a draft pick as compensation to the former team, in addition to the monetary value of whatever contract they give the player. It could happen with the right deal, but it's highly unlikely. Those valuable picks are going to be the basis for the rebuilding process - I can seen trading out of the 25th-overall pick for a couple of second-rounders, for example. Denver needs more picks, not less.
We've talked, for example, about the need for a much stronger middle linebacker for the Broncos if, in fact, Denver isn't as bullish on Nate Irving as Andrew Mason has said that they are (I'm hoping they are - it would solve one problem easily). An RFA Mike would cost the draft pick that Denver needs for other players on top of his salary, so perhaps there's some upside to the RFA player, but it would have to be very substantial. No worries - after the current CBA went into effect and many folks hadn't even read it all yet, teams were very conservative and offered mostly very short term contracts. That's fine - it means lots of unrestricted free agents this year as well. Denver has their eye on a few, said GM Brian Xanders recently. I'm sure they do.
Players, like most folks, like to do business with people they trust. If John Fox and LB coach Richard Smith still have a good relationship with UFA Dan Connor, for example, the Mike problem could be solved for a long time to come by bringing him in (even if they like Irving, it's one time I'd consider moving him to Will). Both players noted above (Nicks and Connor) are UFAs, as are potential MLBs David Hawthorne (Seattle), E.J. Henderson (Minnesota), D'Qwell Jackson (Cleveland), and Curtis Lofton (Atlanta), who has never seemingly played to his full potential in skill. Jameel McClain (Baltimore) plays both inside and out: he's been effective at Mike, Will and RILB. Stephen Tulloch of Detroit, although short for a Mike, would be a potentially good option, but his price tag seems to have gone up quite a bit over last offseason - he played well in 2011, and consistently. He's due a large payday, but he might be worth it if he bolts from Detroit.
By the way, I'm big on Hawthorne as well as Connor. If I do mention a RFA I'll either tell you why I think he might be worth it or you can point out that I screwed up. It happens, and I appreciate the help. Even with Doug's brilliance at editing, some things slip through.
Why go the free agency route on a Mike at all? Simple - you have limited draft picks, a need to maximize player talent, and weak areas in the draft at certain potential areas of need, just for openers. For any other positions, the same factors could come into play. For example, it's a very good year for guards in the draft, but less so for tackles, or so goes the conventional wisdom. I personally think that Denver might want to look at their interior line combinations including center - and if you can add a tackle from FA, it makes the rest easier. I'll have a full article on FA and draft options for Mike in a short while, and others will be coming.
Offensive Line
I'm sure it's a shock to no one that I'm doing a full article on the FAs and draft options along the line, probably broken out by position. Center, like the rest of the line, is definitely on the table for me - even if Denver loves J.D. 'Trash Can' Walton, he's struggling with bigger players and functional strength - his effort and mentality aren't in question. As far as a center, I'd like to create an option for Walton - I'll talk specifically about why in the position piece - and go back to the future: Texans C Chris Myers never should have been let go by Denver, especially since he'd started to play center in 2007, starting all 16 games there. Yes, he's 30 now. He's probably got five more years or more in the game (zone blocking centers at times last longer) and Walton should either be raring to go or dropped long before then.
Another option is Scott Wells, from the Packers. He's also 30, and seems to continue to improve. He'd be costly - and worth it. Same thing with Myers - the middle of the line has to be rock solid. Even with an unusually good guard class, you could take one, develop him over a year or two and take a veteran guard like Evan Mathis (Philadelphia) in FA until then. He's 30, peaking and had an excellent season in 2011. Will Chris Kuper be back by then? I don't know - and that bothers me. It's not like Denver's OL rotation is superb. I'd like to see a couple of veterans to balance out these young guys while they're developing.
How about tackles? Some folks, including Ted, want to move Orlando Franklin to left guard. I think it's a fair idea and you need a decent RT to accomplish that, preferably a FA. Why? The line is the second youngest in the league - adding more rookies isn't an approach I'm comfortable with, because veterans, as the Broncos found out with WR last year, know things that college guys don't, and can pass them on. No veterans means no passage of that knowledge. Denver doesn't have that extra RT on the squad, so do you take on a veteran or go to the draft? It's a good question, and I'd try to go FA first. There are several FA tackles who could be effective - Demetrius Bell (Buffalo) hasn't shown his best game so far, but I think that line coach Dave Magazu can remedy that. He's one option.
I'd love on several levels, to take Jared Gaither from San Diego - they need him more than Denver does, so there's more than just divisional rivalry angst there. Marcus McNeill is probably going to be gone even at his fairly young age, so they need badly to retain Gaither, and he's a UFA. McNeill may have to retire after multiple injuries and this at only age 28 - he's been a tough, talented opponent for Denver, and I hope he heals well. Other options include Willie Colon (Pittsburgh), Doug Free (Dallas), and Marshal Yanda (Baltimore. Damien Woody (NY Jets) is 34 years old and a G/C. He's a good man to have around, but there are better options for Denver. If a solid team needed a swing backup, though, he's a potential solution. Denver requires guys who can push the ones above them - it's been a while since they've really had that.
Maybe they never have, truth be known, and that's due in part to history. The value of the OL - financially and schematically - wasn't really understood across the league (most coaches understood it quite well - most owners did not) until 1993, when Denver's Pat Bowlen famously paid G Brian Habib and tackle Don Maggs about $1.5 million each to protect the best QB in football. As an aside, this means that John Elway really understands what the OL means on a deep level - he'd been sacked 331 times by the time that happened. This incident occurred in a market where one of the best left tackles in football, Anthony Munoz, was arrogantly denied a $500K contract a few years before and practically tossed from the owner's office just for asking. Bowlen's foresight started a trend that became a floodgate in terms of payment for that left tackle position and in part along the line. There's an increasing modern move to a more even pay grade for linemen, based on production instead of just position. Left tackles still hold a substantial advantage, though - most QBs are right-handed, and the LT guards that vulnerable blind side. It's usually your best offensive line player.
All of those options will have advantages and disadvantages - we'll get into more detail as we get closer to the FA period, but feel free to add anything. I'll talk about how I see things and options that I like, but there are dozens - probably hundreds - of ways to go about fixing the line. One is to let them mature as they are, and some people are going to see it that way. I don't, but I can tell you that the longer a group plays together, the better their communication and cohesion becomes. There are advantages to a lot of approaches. I wouldn't take anything off the plate at this point - it's too early - but the basic battle plan is probably already in place. The rest will be filled out after Combine.
Defensive Line
Everyone is going to be looking to see if Denver takes a DT in the 1st or 2nd round this year. It's an interesting question - neither Brodrick Bunkley nor Marcus Thomas (both of whom are UFAs) got a sack last season, although Ryan McBean impressively came up with four sacks from the nose tackle position, and the much-maligned Robert Ayers had three (plus two more in the playoffs against Pittsburgh), and PFF credited him with with five QB hits and 20 pressures for a very good year, including playoffs. He moved well between positions and was also very solid against the run. Do you recall looking at the power and athletic ability of the Giants in the SB? Ayers is developing those kinds of skills, and he already has that kind of muscular size.
DE Cliff Avril of Detroit may be on the move and seems superficially enticing: his downside is that his number of penalties (11) equalled his number of sacks, although according to PFF he had an eye-popping 40 QB hurries, for a total of 61 total QB pressures (including playoffs). His run defense is his weaker area, but Denver could let Ayers concentrate on UT (he's turning into a bit of a beast there, undersized or not) and handle run D on the outside, use Denver's bigger-type (not huge - just bigger) NTs (Bunkley, Ty Warren, Thomas, McBean) and let Avril play LDE on passing downs next to Von Miller and across from Elvis Dumervil. It would make for a very tough group to stop, especially with Bunkley and/or Thomas, Warren, or McBean at NT. I honestly don't think much of Warren's chances of getting through the season healthy, although I'd love to be proven wrong. You plan without him and he's a big added bonus that you've scripted some plays for, if he manages to get and stay healthy.
Kevin Vickerson is also going to be back, and we'll get to see if he can get up to the level he was playing at while a 320-lb player and make sure he can rush the passer at 295 lb. It's counterintuitive, but he seemed less athletic than he did when he was heavier (until he became injured). Recovery is an individual thing, and I'd expect that he's training heavily in explosion and hand placement. Even so - I'm not sure that he's the answer. I liked him a lot as a 320-lb NT. I'm unsure of him as a 295-lb UT.
If he doesn't pan out, McBean might not transfer well to UT, and Warren (who gets pressure on the QB well) is oft injured, so Denver badly needs a penetrating DT right now who can get more pressure on the QB. Jason Jones of the Titans may want out, and he's an unusual but talented player. Put him at undertackle and he's explosive and talented, if somewhat undersized. He's similar to Robert Ayers, in that, but even faster off the line. He probably doesn't belong at NT either. Ben Garland may be fighting for playing time in that mix, if his remaining Air Force commitment is converted to reserve duty. They may bring in a veteran, but I'd expect them to deal with DT in the draft, if only for the variety of it. Things are calming down around Denver, and that's a very good thing. Even so - not taking on a DT might cause heads to explode in Denver. The media will jump on it even if Denver takes a top undertackle in FA.
I'm not going to get into a lot of detail here - it's not important for today, since we'll cover each position in depth. What it comes down to, in starting to study these players, the FAs, and draft options to come, is just a few simple reminders:
If they're an RFA, they'll cost you a draft pick on top of cash. Think long and hard before suggesting that Denver do that for any player - as Elway said, the draft is going to be their key vehicle. Those picks can't be used unless it's a unique trade.
Highly sought after players are going to be highly costly, with large guarantees and long-term cash and cap implications. It's not just about getting the player now, it's about how such a transaction will affect the team financially in future seasons.
Most players want to stay where they are unless they're really unhappy or stuck behind a guy that they can't beat out, and most sign with their current team. They could be the second best in the league at a position (note - deliberate rhetorical overstatement), but if they're behind #1, they might want to move. Otherwise - the team they're on will usually keep them. It's hard to get those players, and you're best waiting for a story on the player wanting to take interviews and visiting around. Even then...
This isn't news, but lists of favorite players aren't helpful in this particular area. Suggesting players you like is both enjoyed and requested - just don't list 10 expensive FAs or top draft picks and think that's useful, to you or the other readers. If you dump a lot of scratch on X player, you have less for the rest. How do you spread around those funds? You'll need some for next year, too. Thankfully, from everything that Doug, TJ and Ted have said, Denver is in a fairly unique situation right now - they have both cash and cap reserves that could potentially improve the entire team (For the record - that's not my specialty. Doug and TJ have understood more of that than I ever will). There's a lot of FA talent available this year, and Denver is in a very good position to take advantage of it.
- Last - Scheme matters, and it matters hugely. Denver needs help at CB - but how much zone, versus how much man? Does the guy you like play press - and like it? He'd better. The Broncos have two fine man-coverage CBs who are both 33 years old - obviously the team needs to deal with that, so what's the skillset of the CB you're looking at? It's the same issue with any position - making sure that the guys you talk about wanting would fit, or ask any staff guy about them. We like talking football, so you won't offend anyone.
A lot of what started this line of thought is material that I picked up out of the scouting books that I like to read. I'm particularly wearing out a book from Steve Belichick, rest his soul, called Football Scouting Methods. It's a very dense book - he doesn't waste any time. His wife had a gift for languages; she spoke several and worked as a translator and as a teacher of that art. She edited the book, and as a result it has a special, effective pace to the verbiage. You understand the essence of what he talks about. He's got a very terse style that can be very laconic at times. There aren't a lot of books on the subject that are much better, though; there's been a lot of excellent press on it that was well-deserved. The American Football Coaches Association's Football Coaching Bible also had a lot of excellent information, as did Daryl Johnston's Watching Football.
I'd also recommend Brian Billick's book, Developing an Offensive Game Plan very highly. Billick's text is a well-written, highly organized but very comfortable, ambling walk through all the basics of setting up an offense, whether for a Pop Warner squad or an NFL program. Reading it gave me a lot of insights into what Mike McCoy was doing in X situations throughout the year. It was enjoyably eye-opening. As long as we're on the subject, I thought that Bill Walsh's The Score Takes Care of Itself had a similar vibe and I'd recommend that one too - it's about how football is more than just football, a subject that I love to listen to. There's a beautiful game hidden deeper within these games, my friends. Have a great week.
Go Broncos!

Rio Smedley suffered 91 separate injuries and died from a ruptured liver, Manchester Crown Court heard.
Daniel Rigby, 23, from Tyldesley, Wigan, was found guilty of murdering his girlfriend's son by a jury of six men and six women. Rigby was sentenced to life in prison and ordered to serve a minimum term of 17 years before he would be considered for parole.
Mr Justice David MacKay told him: "The jury has convicted you of the murder of this little boy. You don't need me to tell you what a terrible crime that was."
The judge said Rigby had abused his position of trust. He said: "You abused that trust by punishing him physically in quite a revolting way. It's a chilling, terrible picture. He suffered considerably before he died, I am satisfied. He was a vulnerable boy. You abused your trust."
The judge said he did not think Rigby intended to kill Rio but had a "sudden loss of temper" and "set about him, inflicting the fatal blow". He was murdered on April 22 in what the prosecution said was "a wicked attack on a defenceless two-year-old child".
Rio's mother, Kirsty Smedley, 24, formerly of Cheriton Drive, Breightmet, Bolton, was found guilty of allowing or causing the death of a child. Her sentencing was adjourned to a date yet to be fixed and she was remanded in custody.
Rigby, dressed in a grey suit, shirt and tie, put his head in his hands as the verdict was given. Smedley, dressed all in black and with her dark hair tied back, appeared to be struggling to hold back tears when the jury announced her guilty verdict.
Mr Justice MacKay told her: "I want you to understand that you stand in very real peril of a prison sentence as a result of this conviction. Don't have any delusions about it."
After the trial, Detective Constable Pam Chandler read a statement on behalf of Rio's family. It said: "Today we have got justice for our beautiful son, grandson, brother and nephew Rio. We have to live every day without Rio and for the rest of our lives we will never see him grow into a lovely young man. No matter how long that monster gets, he will still have a life."
