Gilbride's fine. He just wasn't well-liked as a head coach in the past so it's cool to call him Killdrive.

What is sort of funny is how many of these 'terrible' coordinators keep finding new jobs.
Capers isn't horrid but if he doesn't have the horses his defenses just don't work.
I wish he'd shelve that zone business for several weeks if not longer.

Darrell Bevell should win this thread. Hate that guy so glad he's gone. Musgrave had his worst playcalling game of the season against Detroit and was still better then Bevell.

Richard Smith - We ranked 25th, 22nd and 27th under his guidance (we used a lot of high picks on defense too) When he left he was unemployed for a year and is now a LB coach for the Broncos (family ties, same reason he got the Houston gig)
Frank Bush - We ranked 17th and 29th under his tutelage (again lots of resources were dedicated to defense) Now the LB coach in Tennessee. (oh and that makes 2 under-qualified ex-Broncos hired by ex-Bronco Gary Kubiak)

Greg Knapps playcalling hasn't really been bad.
Players haven't picked up the system yet and lots of other crap has lead to our team sucking
It surely hasn't been good either. Just in that last game, the Raiders had decent success running the ball early so what do we do? We go into shotgun formations. Shouldn't we be keeping the D honest and use PA at this point? How about going with 3 straight run plays and punting when we're down by 3 scores in the 3rd quarter? Or running those stretch plays who haven't gone anywhere yet so much? Or repeatedly coming up with a pass play short of the first down on 3rd down?
The players aren't executing well enough but Knapp is bad. Plus i'm getting tired of his constant excuse making when he adresses the media. He's the only person seeing any improvement with this offense.
And maybe someone should tell him we were pretty good running screens the last 2 years so he might want to start using that as well.

It's funny how no one is ever a homer with coordinators. Fans just love to trash their coaches because it's an easy fix - we get rid of this guy and our problems will go away! They don't want to hear that the players just aren't good enough.
Let's just say this one hits close to home.
I was a pretty big O'Brien homer. Just throwing that around.

That original thread had a lot more than jayhawk posting some extremely optimistic (I'd call it homeristic personally) -- he was just the most brash of them all. It just so happened that the majority of your fans held onto the one or two analysts who went out on a limb to predict the Chiefs to do well and used it as evidence to show that it's "not just us".

Chud's playcalling this year has been inconsistent. He's trying way too hard with the read options and really is just trying to get too cute with a lot of things.
McDermott has actually been pretty good this year, I like how he's managed the front seven with different packages (4 linebackers rotating, 7 or 8 defensive linemen rotating) and he's been a lot more aggressive this year.

The worst OC is the guy who took over an offense ranked 9th in total offense and dropped them to 30th.
Who has one of the most dangerous RBs in the NFL, but has somehow managed to get us 70 less rush yards per game.
Who dropped our PPG by 6 points
In fact, he has caused a drop in every offensive statistical category from our last OC.
That man is none other than Greg Knapp, or Knapp Time as I call him. Watching a Knapp offense will put you to sleep.

I think Dom Capers is fine. Sure, he doesn't always make great adjustments but his defense can really shine with the right personnel. Heck, he is having to play four rookies significantly this year. Going to take longer than that for the guys to get adjusted(Worthy, Perry, McMillian, Hayward, Daniels).
Scheme wise he get's away from man too often which is what our corners are meant to do. I hate when he goes zone because you just know it's going to get picked apart. We also really need safeties. Burnett is meh and McMillian just a rookie.
For any defense though you can't just pluck a 27 year old All-Pro leader off the defense and not expect a huge drop off. We really miss him a lot.
I would not say he's a bottom feeder DC.

During an exchange on the topic, both she and Joe Biden said they oppose gay marriage. But Biden added that he and Barack Obama favor granting gay couples many of the same benefits—hospital visitation rights, health benefits—that married couples enjoy. Palin was tougher to pin down. She clearly didn't want to appear intolerant, but neither did she want to seem to embrace gay rights. "[N]o one would ever propose, not in a McCain-Palin administration, to do anything to prohibit, say, visitations in a hospital or contracts being signed …" she said.The folks in Alaska might have been surprised to hear that. In the past, Palin has described her opposition to granting gay couples the benefits married couples receive.

Steve Grove: How to Run for President, YouTube StyleSteve Grove believes in the wisdom of crowds. And the smartest people he knows are YouTube's estimated 71 million users, who collectively post and watch as many as 2.5 billion online videos a month. As YouTube's political director, Grove, 30, considers himself less an editor than a "curator" of the Web site's "chaotic sea of content." A lot of the site's political fare is anything but high-minded or serious—the sultry YouTube fave "Obama Girl" and all those wonderfully snarky homemade videos mocking Hillary Clinton's robotic laugh or John Edwards's obsessive hair and makeup routine. But user-created clips are also shaping coverage of the 2008 presidential campaign in ways unimagined in 2006, when a viral video of Sen. George Allen calling his rival's campaign worker "macaca" ended the Virginia Republican's career—and led to what Grove calls "the birth of YouTube politics."YouTube, which didn't even exist three years ago, found its way into the mainstream awfully fast.

Environment: The Bottled-Water BattleNothing irks Salt Lake City Mayor Ross (Rocky) Anderson more than seeing people tote water in plastic bottles. In fact, he argues, his city has some of the best tap water in the country. Several months ago, Anderson instructed department heads to stop buying bottled water for the city's 2,200 workers and provide coolers and fountains instead. "For a long time, I've viewed [bottled water] as a huge marketing scam," he says.Considering that Americans chug more than 30 billion single-serving bottles of water a year, Anderson's campaign is at most a drop in the you-know-what. But there are signs of a push to bring back the tap, led by mayors who want to cut down on global warming. Anderson is urging the U.S. Conference of Mayors to promote tap water as a way to limit greenhouse-gas emissions. In San Francisco, residents who sign an online pledge not to buy plastic water bottles get a free stainless-steel water container. Some cities, aware that companies filter and sell municipal tap...

VIDEO PREMIERE: Mila J - 'Smoke Drink Break Up'
Listen to Mila J on iHeartRadio
Mila J is back with her latest single "Smoke Drink Break Up," and now the sultry song has a brand new music video to go with it.
The singer is certainly making her mark with her new song, but in the meantime, she's hard at work on her full-length album M.I.L.A. - which stands for "Made In Los Angeles." She is an L.A. girl after all!
Keeping in line with the Los Angeles theme, the music video finds the singer riding around the City of Angels with friends and sharing some intimate moments with Ty Dolla $ign.
[Buy "Smoke Drink Break Up" on iTunes]
Mila J says of her new video, "I'm really excited to share my first music video with my fans off my upcoming album M.I.L.A. I truly wanted to capture Los Angeles in this video and what better way to do that than with my friend Ty Dolla $ign."

excellent investment
By Mike
from Newnan Ga.
we use the vaccuum daily to clean up small debris that accumulates over nite. It takes about 10 mins. to do our 16x32 inground pool. What a relief not having to hook up hoses, priming etc. the machine is light weight easy to clean and small enough to store just about anywhere between uses. My wife can even clean the pool now! Haven't found and con's to date.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Works Better Than Expected
By Tom
from Ontario, Canada
I'm very happy with this product. Save a huge amount to time cleaning the pool.
By Walker
from Rochester, PA
I have an old inground pool with no bottom drain. It is a pain to hook up the hose to sweep the everyday dirt, leaves, sand etc. I purchased the Pool Blaster Max and it is phenomenal. Easy to use and it picks up everything that I stated above. This has made my pool even more enjoyable to share with family and friends.

Not food for fine particles
By Old man Don
from Chestertown, MD
Price was not a factor.After charging it worked well on large particles but not on silt. There was no way to attach the micro filter to pick up the silt, which was what I had in my pool. Instructions need to be greatly enlarged and written by someone who actually used the product. Sincerely, Don Whomsley
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Potentially good for touch ups

Nice pool vacuum
By wendeg
from Mahomet, IL
The pool vac works well enough until the filter bag fills up. Then you have to empty the filter before you can vacuum some more. So how well you like the vacuum is going to be affected by how much you clean up the pool with the leaf bagger before you start to vacuum, as with any pool vac. On the new bettery that comes with it, it will run for close to an hour. That is plenty of time and more than I need to clean my 24 x 12 above ground pool. So, as battery life starts to go down over age of product, I feel it should still perform well for me. The reson I got it was because it is difficult to set up the vac that came with the pool and plugs into the skimmer and this certainly solves that problem. And it does keep all that stuff from going into the sand filter and clogging up my hose on the way. So I can do this without any help from my husband - and that was the whole point of the purchase in the first place. I am pleased with my purchase by I can't give it 5 stars because I don't know how long the battery will last, and how long it last basically determines the life of the product. I imagine when it reachs the point where it take two charges to clean my pool of the little stuff, I will purchase another one of the same brand.

Not enough suction or power
By tony
from martinez,ca
tried to clean a small pond in my front yard and it took over a hour. there is not enough suction power to pick up large or small objects (leaves). I could not imagine cleaning a large pool. The opening is too small so it gets blocked/filter bags are also small. for the price it would be cheaper to hire someone to come out and clean it for me!

After graduating from Mary Washington College with a Geography degree he still isn't sure quite what to do with, he eventually settled in the mountains of Central Virginia. He spends his free time chasing his daughter around, taking pictures, gardening and cooking. He joined Crutchfield's car A/V writing team in 2007 and is now a lead producer on our video team.
More from Zak Billmeier
Sound Ordnance subwoofer enclosures, known as Bass Bunkers, are available in a variety of shapes and sizes to house most standard-sized woofers. This Crutchfield video gives you an up-close look at these high-quality sub boxes.
Video Transcript
Zak: Today we're going to take a look at subwoofer enclosures from Sound Ordnance. And like other Sound Ordnance gear, this is a high-quality product at a reasonable price.
Jo: Sound Ordnance subwoofer enclosures, which we call Bass Bunkers, are available in most standard box sizes: 8-, 10-, 12-, 15-inch and also 6"x9"s.
Zak: And for 10 and 12 inch subs dual boxes are available for holding two subs.
Jo: These boxes can be sealed for deep, precise bass or ported for loud, boomy bass. These enclosures are well-built and durable. They're made from 5/8" medium-density fiberboard, or MDF. They are airtight and they have a reinforced construction.
Zak: You'll find spring-post terminals on the back making for an easy connection to the speaker wires coming from your amplifier. There's also 18 inches of speaker wire already connected on the inside which makes it easier to connect and install your subwoofer.
Jo: And all the boxes come with a one year warranty. To find out more about the boxes, go to crutchfield.com/SOboxes.
Zak: But really, when you're adding bass to your car's system, the first thing you should do is pick out the subwoofer that you want. Then we'll help you find the right box to put it in based on that choice. Also based on the kind of music that you listen to and how you listen to it.
Jo: You can talk to our advisors online via chat or e-mail.
Zak: Or give us a call at 1-800-555-9408.

Ok, I have been having alot of problems with getting straight info regarding the status of the SD card reader/writer support for this 4in1-- much of the info I have found is pretty dated. I have spent much of this weekend trying to get the reader working under debian and ubuntu with 0 luck-- I popped in the BT disk (because also having strange usb wifi [w rtl8187 ALFA usb wifiNIC] issues under both but always have had great success with BT [not final tho]),, anyways,, I noticed, regarding the cardreader problem that BT has some support for pcmcia devices installed into the 4in1,, but still nothing for the SD reader/writer? unless I am missing something,, which is likely!
The machine is an old HP nc6000, mostly everything else works by default with BT so I think I am going to probably stick with it for now-- but sure would like to get this SD card writer working cause I need some tunes in my fone!!
Can anyone give some advice on how to proceed from here? I am not skilled enough to hack the driver I don't think,, but would be willing to try if someone more skilled would assist? or at least provide some guideline on how to get started,, or somethin....
This issue is about the worst one right now for me,,,, and it really looks like is a common issue for this hardware (at least that is what my dated info indicates,,)
Thanks in advance for any hep with this issue,,, cheers J

HSBC, UBS Ramp up Investment in Financial Technology
HSBC has allocated up to $200 million for investment in tech start-ups with the aim of improving the bank's financial technology, underscoring the growing interest from the financial sector in the fast-growing fintech area.
As our sister publication Financial News reports, the fund will invest globally, both in firms that operate in retail and capital markets financial services technology, two people familiar with the initiative said.
Banks are taking a variety of approaches as they try to keep up with technologies that could radically change their business environment. Swiss lender UBS has over the past few months created a new system of internal working groups that focus on specific technology projects. These so-called "innovation spaces" have dedicated funds to finance their operations and will comprise individuals from both the IT and the business divisions of the bank.
Oliver Bussmann, UBS group chief information officer, said: "Innovation is not an option for banks. Fostering innovation is essential to add value for clients and create a competitive advantage."
The working groups could also include experts from outside UBS, such as venture capitalists or representatives of relevant fintech startups. Once the group has come up and tested an idea, it will take it to the relevant business unit which will decide on whether to take further steps. However, UBS did not disclose a figure on its total possible investment.
Both moves highlight the growing importance of the emerging fintech sector. A report published in March from Accenture showed that global investment in fintech ventures has more than tripled during the last five years, from under $930 million in 2008 to more than $2.97 billion in 2013.
Earlier this year, Barclays PLC announced the launch of an accelerator program in London for fintech startups in collaboration with Techstars, a startup accelerator. The selected companies will receive mentoring and £12,500 of funding from Techstars.
For the past two years, many of the world's largest investment banks have also participated in a fintech accelerator program run by consultancy giant Accenture. Through the initiative fintech startups are mentored by senior executives from the sponsoring banks, which include JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, and Deutsche Bank.
European fintech startups are also attracting more investment from the venture capital community. In the first quarter of this year, European fintech startups raised the highest level of venture capital in more than 10 years.
Payment processing companies, financial software and businesses that provide big data systems to banks proved particularly popular, with 14 of those businesses raising €166 million over the three-month period, according to data from Dow Jones VentureSource. The previous time the sector attracted such levels of investment was the second quarter of 2000, when 42 companies raised €263 million.

New Leader Training is comprised of:
What Makes a Trained Leader?
* Note: Fast Start Training is no longer required to be considered Trained; however it is still highly recommended. Additionally, This Is Scouting (was New Leader Essentials) is also no longer required (except for CORs).
** Some councils require Crews with Outdoor emphasis to take IOLS, other councils require all Crew leaders to take IOLS, the flyer on scouting.org[1] does not include IOLS for Venture leaders.
New Leader Training
The New Leader Training is customized training to help leaders easily graduate through the courses quickly and with little duplication.
Online Fast Start Training is the first step for all new volunteers as soon as they register and before meeting with any youth member. Fast Start Training is tailored to the leader's position:
Training continues through with Leader Specific Training which provides more specialized information about the leader's particular position and an introduction to outdoor leader skills (for some leaders - see chart above).
Scouting provides ongoing training opportunities for leaders through EDGE, Wood Badge, BALOO, classes at Philmont Training Center, etc (see below).
All BSA-registered volunteers must also complete Youth Protection Training.

As an analytical psychologist for thirty years I am concerned to provide a depth psychological understanding of personal issues and conflicts, fears and blocks by working together with your dreams, other difficulties, concerns and personal relationships. The goal is to help the client gain insight into his or her unconscious in order to achieve greater self understanding. This is done to bring greater energy, vitality and purpose to one's life by engaging in a process of a depth encounter which touches the deep layers of the personalities both of the analyst and the analysand.

In my journey to becoming a psychologist and now post-licensure, I have gained invaluable experience with a myriad of populations. I have worked with adolescents, young adults, adults, and the elderly. I have treated a number of different psychological disorders and am confident in my skill set. If, however, I did not feel comfortable treating someone or found their presenting issues to be outside my scope of care I would not hesitate to refer to another provider. I primarily approach therapy from a Cognitive Behavioral standpoint, but I use other modalities, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and psychodynamic psychotherapy, if I believe the client would benefit.

POMONA - The large blue pipes and vessels at the end of East Third Street and Electra Street in Pomona's eastern end may not seem much to some, but they actually will add up to 16 million of gallons of clean water daily to the city supplies.
The water-treatment facility, which cost about $8.8 million to build and was completed in late September, will allow the city to restart up to nine wells that were taken out of service because of chemical pollutants, according to a city staff report.
The plant will be "a major asset in our water quality treatment," said Daryl Grigsby, Pomona's public works director, during a recent dedication ceremony for the project.
The city will be able to produce more water and reduce its need for imported supplies, said Tim Hampton, of the city's Department of Public Works.
The city now buys water from the Metropolitan Water District through Three Valleys Municipal Water District, Hampton said.
Imported water costs the city about $800 per acre-foot, he said. Treating the city's water costs less than $400 per acre-foot, he said.
Part of the expense associated with imported water is related to the energy required to pump it over the Tehachapi Mountains, Hampton said.
In 2007, the city began treating some of its water to remove perchlorate - a chemical compound used in many industries that has found its way into many Southland water supplies - at a plant designed to reduce nitrate concentrations, the staff report said. Nitrates, a residue of the area's agricultural past, are also found in the region's water supply.
That plant is a short distance from the new facility.
The city did process some of the water, blending it with water from other sources while also shutting down wells with excessive amounts of perchlorate. These remedies increased costs and reduced the city's water production, the staff report said.
In 2008, the city contracted a study that recommended continuing to use the nitrates plant and adding another to handle perchlorate treatment, the staff report said.
In August 2011, the City Council awarded a contract to HDR Constructors to design and build the new water-treatment facility.
By late October, two of the nine wells had been activated, and Hampton said the city is "looking at reactivating another four within a year."
Access to that supply of water is important particularly during the summer, when the demand increases, he said.
Assemblywoman Norma Torres, D-Chino, was among the state and federal legislators who congratulated the city for carrying out the water project.
Having reliable drinking water "is a high priority in Pomona," said Torres, the city's former mayor.
Residents and others in the city expect to turn on their faucets and have quality water, but they also expect to have low rates, she said.

Monroe Mountain, Piute County • Newborn mule deer are well prepared to avoid ending up as coyote food. Upon birth, they carry little, if any, scent and instinctively hide in brush and fallen timber, lying still for long stretches.
So, if predators have a hard time finding fawns, imagine how difficult it can be for humans.
Utah researchers, trying to determine the impact of coyote predation, recognized the challenges of tracking down the newborns and turned to technology for help in getting a four-year study off to a solid start.
In March, researchers and biologists captured 65 pregnant does on their wintering ground in Piute County. Radio collars were placed on their necks. Attention then was turned to the other end of the animal. Vaginal implant transmitters (VITs) were placed in the mothers-to-be before they were released.
"They moved onto [Monroe] mountain in mid- to late May, and our fist implant transmitters started being activated on June 1," says Brigham Young University graduate student and field research coordinator Eric Freeman.
The VITs send a signal from the time they are implanted. The does then expel the transmitters when they start delivering their babies. The signal changes its tone when the receiver drops below 95 degrees Fahrenheit, indicating birth has taken place.
Once a fawn is located and there are almost always two with each doe the researcher puts on surgical gloves to minimize the human smell.
The animal is weighed and measured, and a collar is placed on its neck. The collars are designed to expand twice as the fawn grows and then, eventually, fall off. The newborns are then placed back where they were discovered.
All this in an effort to learn why fawn numbers and, by extension, mule deer populations are declining.
The study a partnership of the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, BYU and Utah State University is expected to cost $950,000, with DWR picking up the bulk of the tab. Most of that money comes from state auctions of big-game tags.
Sportsmen for Fish and Wildlife kicked in $100,000 and the Mule Deer Foundation added $75,000.
BYU is handling the fawn-collaring and monitoring portion of the project while USU works on the coyote collaring.
Since early June, Freeman and several colleagues have been roaming Monroe Mountain, waving antennas, tracking collared does and waiting for VITs to change their tone. Once it happens, they use the radio signal from the new mother and the location of the VIT to home in on the right area.
"It's like looking for an 8-pound loaf of bread with spots," says Freeman while scouring the brush for the fawn or twin fawns of a doe that picked a spot at 10,000 feet to give birth.
In this instance, even after seeing the doe and locating the expelled VIT, Freeman and two helpers fail to find a fawn. They climb on all-terrain vehicles for the 20-mile ride back to camp in the dark. Five hours later, they do it all over again.
The study's goal is to collar 240 fawns in four years. The team had tagged 65 through the end of June, surpassing the first-year goal of 60.
Freeman confirmed two fawn kills by predators (one mountain lion and one coyote). Brock McMillan, an associate professor at BYU, also witnessed a cougar taking down a doe while he was looking for fawns.
Mule deer populations across the West have been dropping for decades. The issue made headlines at the Utah Legislature this year with passage of two bills aimed at helping to stem the decline.
SB245 appropriated $500,000 to DWR to reduce coyote populations in areas where deer herds have suffered significant losses. Part of the Mule Deer Protection Act raised the bounty on coyotes from $20 for each animal to $50 and took effect July 1. SB87 added a $5 fee on big-game hunting permits for predator-control programs.
The Monroe Mountain study, however, was organized long before the Legislature acted.
"DWR and conservation groups felt like we needed better information of fawn mortality and what is causing chronically low fawn production," says Jim Karpowitz, DWR director and lead researcher in the last fawn mortality study conducted in Utah in 1984. "This is probably the biggest and best-funded study of its kind at any time in Utah. At the end of the day, we expect to have better information about fawn mortality and how predator control may impact fawn production."
Vance Mumford, a wildlife biologist from DWR's Cedar City office, says the recent low fawn-to-doe ratios on the Monroe hunting unit could be due to several factors, adding that this study should help pinpoint causes and possible remedies.
"Is the decline because of habitat loss, poor nutrition for the doe and young fawns or is it depredation? All three may play a role," Mumford says. "Mule deer can have high production rates. If everything lines up and there is a lack of predation and good habitat conditions, population can grow quite quickly. The potential is there, the question is what can we do to increase that survival if anything?"
In 1999, the post-hunting season ratio on the Monroe Unit was 68 fawns to 100 does. The number plunged to 38 per 100 in 2010.
Anis Aoude, DWR's chief of big game, says any ratio above 60 signals a growing population. If the numbers drops below that level, it becomes a concern.
"It can be as low as about 50 and the population can still be OK," Aoude says, "but anything below 50 and it gets in the critical range."
For the study, the Monroe Mountain area was split. Half the fawns were collared on the north end and half on the south.
Twenty-five coyotes will be collared in each half. The halves are important because the study is being done in "an experimental cross-over design."
"We will have two years of coyote control on one half and, after two years, we will switch and control coyotes on the other half," Mumford says. "By using control on the coyotes, we kind of have a control for any mitigating factors."
USU researchers started collaring coyotes over the winter. Capturing the wild canines proved difficult, and the goal of collaring 25 coyotes on each end of the Monroe Mountain study area fell a little short before federal hunters began killing the predators on the north side. (The U.S. Department of Agriculture reduces the coyotes by shooting them from the air or trapping them on the ground. )
"We probably overestimated the number of adult resident coyotes on that mountain range," says USU assistant professor Julie Young, a co-principal investigator on the study and a biologist for the National Wildlife Research Center. "We knew nothing about the coyotes there."
Young says more than 50 coyotes have been killed this year. Interestingly, her team of researchers found at least one coyote possibly two had been killed by mountain lions. One of them was also partially eaten by the cougar.
Although lions are not part of this study, Young says her team will monitor the cats during the study using a strong collection of data on cougars from previous DWR research.
"Although we are studying coyotes and mule deer, there are a lot of other factors that could be important in how that relationship plays out," Young says. "It seems silly, given the radio collars already on the mountain lions and the information we already have on them, not to collect what information we can on them for this study."
Aoude is eager to see the results of the fawn study and then adapt management practices accordingly on Monroe Mountain and, possibly, across the state.
"It may tell us specific things we can do on that unit," he says. "If fawn survival is weather-dependent, we won't be able to do much. If it is predation, we can do more control. But we may see, like many other studies have shown, that malnutrition or diseases are a major killer of fawns early on. Predation usually comes in third."

If you see a fawn all alone ... leave it alone
Mule deer does typically give birth to two fawns sometime in June. About that time each year, state wildlife officials get reports from the public about "orphaned fawns." The fawns are rarely orphaned, but are left alone by their mothers in an effort to protect them from predators. Elk also leave young calves alone for long periods. The best thing to do is leave fawns and calves alone and leave the area without disturbing them.

GOLF: Crescenta Valley High grad makes four birdies in first time playing Augusta National.
AUGUSTA, Ga. - John Huh played his first round ever at the Masters on Thursday, and he wasn't even nervous.
Must be nice.
"Not at all. It was like a normal tournament," Huh said.
Except that it's not.
The 22-year-old Crescenta Valley High product had a solid first round after he shot a 2-under 70 and was tied for eighth when he tapped in for par on the 18th hole.
He had a morning tee time and there were plenty of golfers still on the course with rain in the forecast at Augusta National.
He birdied four holes - Nos. 7, 8, 15 and 17 - and bogeyed the first and ninth holes.
"It's great to start the first round like this," Huh said. "I was really looking forward to it. I drove the ball great, but I didn't sink the ball as well as I wanted. But I'm really pleased with the way I played."
Huh wasn't overwhelmed in his three practice rounds here or in the Par-3 Contest on Wednesday, but he wasn't sure quite what to expect when the tournament began.
Playing with Michael Thompson and John Senden, Huh hit tee shot on No. 1 in the middle of the fairway, then his approach shot went above the hole. He bogeyed but recovered by parring the next five holes.
Huh was given a lot of advice, but there's nothing like playing it for the first time.
"The pin positions I wasn't expecting on certain holes, especially in the first round," Huh said. "... Obviously, the speed has to be good on the greens."
And his nerves were just fine. He didn't have any, even though it's hard to fathom.
"It was the same," Huh said of his demeanor. "That's how I am all the time."

I'm not going to tell you that I've been too lazy to keep up the blog lately. Or that my daily routine leaves me tired and uninspired sometimes. I'm not going to tell you that I feel just a teensy bit overwhelmed with planning a wedding or that I like to give my brain a rest with an episode of Scandal most weekdays. Because you don't wanna hear that complain-y crap!
What I am going to tell you is that I'm back to share recipes with you.
While I've been away from voracious for a bit, I've still been in the kitchen most days cooking nourishing food to keep us going. I've even cooked some especially good things. But I've mostly been falling back on dishes that are easy for me to make and aren't deemed "blog-worthy".
I'm making a promise to work harder to share the dishes that are coming out of my kitchen with you – because I know that we all need a little inspiration for simple healthy food that tastes good. Or at least I do.
And I'm starting out easy with a dip.
This is a new spin on the old can of white beans. Or bulb of fennel, depending on how you look at it. It's creamy, dip-able, spreadable and great for sharing. I love the fresh rosemary in this but you could use thyme, parsley, basil or any other herb, really. I'd probably use a bit more when using leafy herbs though.

'Rivet, 34, wasn't criticizing the younger captains around the league, but merely pointing out that, in his case, he would not have been ready in his early 20s to take on that challenge. Now, he's a seasoned veteran who can pass on that experience to his younger teammates in Buffalo. "I think you have to go through your ups and downs and deal with different situations and learn from older players. In today's game, it seems like teams are going in a different route."'

Got my 8470-WD last week, works great. The internal antenna is a little weak, but like Re@lity says, it has an MC connection for an external antenna.
This question always seems to be asked, over & over.
I posted a brief guide in the old forum, so maybe it'll be of some help here too.
So here's some basic advice, for what it's worth.....
Theres no quick and easy answer to whats the best card to buy. It depends a lot on what you want to do with it!
This also all depends on if you want only b or if you want b & g, or even a, b & g ?
For b only:
For b only, the prism 2.5 chipset cards are best to go for. Something like the Senao 2511CD Plus Ext2 is a very nice card, very high power at 200mW, and with excellent receive sensitivity too. It is external antenna only though. It comes with 2x MMCX type connectors.
There is also a model available with built-in antenna instead, just without the ext2 in the model number. Although I would go for the external antenna model personally.
The thing to watch with this card though is that theres a newer model which has M at the end of the model number. Thois stands for Mercury and is a Prism3 chipset. These arent very good cards, they have crap receive sensitivity. Stay away from that one!
For b & g:
If you want g as well as b then go for something with an Atheros chipset.
A good all-round card for b & g with Atheros chipset is the Proxim 8470-WD. This has a built antenna, but also has an MC type connection for an optional external antenna to be added. This is an excellent card for using with Aircrack, etc.
A cheap and easy to find Atheros b g card would be something like the Netgear WG511T. This has no external antenna option though.
For a, b & g:
In my opinion, the best a, b & g card, with Atheros chipset is the Cisco AIR- CB21AG-E-K9, but unfortunately this card isnt available with any external antenna option.
Probably the easiest to find a, b & g Atheros card is the Netgear WAG511. This is a good card for using with Aircrack, etc but again, no external antenna connector.
I found an NEC WarpStar once, which has an external connector, but I never did find out the type of connector it has. Also, Im not entirely sure the external antenna option works for a as well. It may only be for the b & g modes.
Again, the Atheros chipset cards are probably the safest purchase, for using with the Aircrack suite.
Having said that, the best chipset for Aircrack, in my opinion, has always been the PrismGT chipset.
The problem here, though, is that they are quite hard to find and dont usually come with external antenna connectors.
One of the most available PrismGT cards to look for is the Netgear WG511, but you must get a V1 card, with silver antenna casing. Any V1s with different colour casings have whats called a soft-mac chipset and are no good! Also, all other versions (V2, V3, etc) of this card have different chipsets and are no good!
Senao also make a high power (200mW) PrismGT card, the 3054CB Plus. But again, theyre quite hard to find now.
I have only ever come across 1 PrismGT card with an external antenna connector, the Waveport WL54G. Again, theres different versions of this card that dont have the PrismGT chipset, so it can be hard to find the *right* one.
A good friend of mine, from the US managed to get me one of those direct from the factory eventually, but even then he was sent the wrong one twice!
I dont think theyre available brand new any more though.
And if money is no object??:
If you dont mind spending the cash, then probably the best Atheros card to buy would be the extremely high powered 300mW Ubiquiti card.
So, realistically, the best bet, if you really dont know what card to buy and just want to simply go and buy one without all the hassles, is probably to just go for the Proxim 8470-WD card. This is a very good all rounder, mid-priced Atheros chipset card, so you cant go far wrong, and can always add an external antenna if you want to, via the MC type connector.
Hope this is of some help!?!
Got my 8470-WD last week, works great. The internal antenna is a little weak, but like Re@lity says, it has an MC connection for an external antenna.
Nice tips on how to choose a nice card!
But what would you do if you were stuff to either USB or Expresscard?
No PCMCIA avilable...
Well, can't complain that much since my Dell was a gift I received from my wife...
I have the 300mW Ubiquiti, and I have to say it is the shiznit! HIGHLY recommend it.... hell, if you get the wrong card or a card that doesn't function the way you want it to, you may end up spending just as much as the Ubiquiti after buying a 2nd card to replace the first!
aircrack-ng's version of which card to buy
can't go wrong if you get the exact model they have there ^.^
i'd say Proxim Orinoco 8470-WD though.
I have here major doubt what to buy :
- Linksys WUSB54G, USB (Ralink 2570) == 45 EUR
- D-Link DWL-G122, USB (Ralink 2570) == 29 EUR
- Netgear WG511T, PCMCIA (Atheros) == 40 EUR
Any user recommendations - do they work with Final version, do they inject?
I would also like some advice in buying a usb wireless adapter.
It has to be usb because my laptop only has usb and expresscard (and there are no expresscard adapters yet).
I can't find any dwl-g122's that are rev B1. I don't think they're making them any more..
Please let me know if you have gotten injection to work with another usb adapter.
The computer store people are probably getting frustrated with me buying and returning 8 different adapters because injection doesn't work and I'm getting frustrated with the fact that there seem to be NO current usb adapters that can inject!
Please help me out here.
I found this store on ebay selling the Proxim card, offices in Spain and the UK.
May help in this thread.
ah the wifi shop that where i got my 511T atheros from. great card works fune in BT final ,plug n play
Hey, what about the MSI CB54G2 card, has anyone used it? Its being recommended by the aircrack website, its quite cheap, has the Ralink chipset and also supports WPA, I am planning to get this one, I really dont need something with an external Antenna, what do you guys think?

On Fox, Rove Rehashes Tired Stimulus Falsehoods
Blog ››› ››› CHELSEA RUDMAN
Fox figures have been relentless in insisting that the economic stimulus failed -- even though experts agree that it boosted GDP and employment. Moreover, numerous economists "think the economy would be worse" today without it.
But on Fox Broadcasting's Fox News Sunday, Fox News contributor Karl Rove claimed that President Obama's policies have "utterly failed" and that when he "passed the stimulus bill, he said unemployment would be 6 percent." Rove also claimed that "each time [Obama has] sort of gotten around to tossing an idea out on the table, it has included only more spending, more deficit [and] more debt." From the August 21 edition of the show:
ROVE: Look, the president has had a Democrat Congress for over two-thirds of the time that he's been in office, and a Republican House and a Democrat Senate for less than a third of the time. He did have a -- he got what he wanted. He passed the stimulus bill in 2001 [sic]. He increased spending during that year as well. He got affordable care act. When the president passed the stimulus bill, he said that unemployment by this time would be 6 percent, that 5 million more people would be working -- nearly 5 million more people working today than are working.
The president's approval rating this week in Gallup on the economy is 26 percent. There's a reason why: His policies have utterly failed. This is the seventh or eighth or ninth time that we've heard the president talk about producing a plan, and each time that he's sort of gotten around to tossing an idea out on the table, it has included only more spending, more deficit, more debt, and the American people are fed up with it.
First of all, economists widely agree that the stimulus was not a failure. As Rove's fellow guest Bill Burton, a former Obama White House deputy press secretary, noted, "[T]he stimulus ... did actually create jobs." Indeed, independent and private analysts have stated that the stimulus created or saved millions of jobs, increased employment, and also boosted GDP by between 2.1 and 3.5 percent.
Rove's claim that "[w]hen the president passed the stimulus bill, he said unemployment by this time would be 6 percent" is also misleading.
Rove may have been referring to the fact that Obama advisers initially predicted -- 10 days before Obama was inaugurated -- that after stimulus spending, unemployment would not exceed 8 percent. However, advisers later said that the estimate was made before fourth-quarter results for the GDP from 2008 were available. As Jared Bernstein, then-economic adviser to Vice President Biden, explained: "[W]hen we made our initial estimates, that was before we had fourth-quarter results on GDP, which we later found out was contracting on an annual rate of 6 percent, far worse than we expected at that time."
Finally, Rove's claim that all of Obama's ideas have "included only more spending, more deficit [and] more debt" is laughably untrue. Has Rove already forgotten the recent negotiations over raising the debt ceiling? The final deal that Obama signed into law pledges to cut $2.1 trillion in spending in the next 10 years -- and did not include any revenue increases, as the president had called for. In private talks with Speaker John Boehner (R-OH), Obama reportedly had agreed to $250 billion in cuts to Medicare, $110 billion in cuts to Medicaid, and $200 billion in savings from other domestic social programs.

- Less than satisfactory Review by Marty
Service was everything that any other company should aspire to provide. I did, however, find my experience with the gloves less commendable and lacking in function over appearance. I misunderstood the "fully lined" description in that I thought they would be a warmer glove. It's lined more for padding than warmth. From a historical standpoint, this glove IS meant to be worn with a layered system for winter flying. In this respect, I will agree with CRM that larger sizes would be very convenient for someone like myself who is looking for warmth or to layer.
After about two weeks of use, a few teeth on my left glove zipper are missing, and both gloves are torn at a few of the seams. Use includes riding a Ural motorcycle a few days a week to my local airfield for flight training, and are kept indoors with my flight cap and goggles on a shelf by the door. (No helmet law in AZ!) All in all, the gloves are very pretty and feel nice on the hands, but my pair didn't last me very long. Maybe mine came from a bad run? (Posted on 12/9/2013)
- Good Product Review by CRM
- Need to offer XXL size. XL is a little small. (Posted on 12/14/2011)
- it was a great experience Review by Neil
This was my first purchase from FlightJacket, and I must say it was a great experience. The service was topnotch and fast, and I am very pleased with the quality of the product. I actually had sourced this product firstly from another supplier, and ran into some problems with their website. I attempted to reach them through their contact phone number, but got only an answering machine, and never did get a call back. It was then that I went searching for an alternate supplier and found your website. I'm glad I did.
If I can make one comment, as a Canadian customer, it is much less costly to have goods shipped USPS as opposed to UPS. The reason for that is the fact that we rarely are charged any duty under $100.00 when it comes through the postal service, and no brokerage fees. Although you gave me free shipping, UPS actually charged me over $40 brokerage on this item! Nonetheless, I'm very happy to have these gloves - they're a rare item - and I thank you for that.
As a matter of interest I've made quite a few purchases from U.S. Wings and BestGlide among others, and now that I've found your website you'll undoubtedly hear from me again. Thanks again.

However if someone really need help, Contact me. Or replay this thread, i'll look what i can do to help.
Sorry for bad English.

The San Francisco 49ers have improved in just about every facet of the offense this season. But there is one area where they didn't really need to get much better.
The 49ers are protecting the football better than anybody in the NFL, and their turnover-free play is reaching historic proportions.
San Francisco hasn't committed a turnover in six consecutive regular-season games dating to last season, the second-longest streak in NFL history. The 49ers can match the league record set by the 2010 New England Patriots on Sunday night when they face the Detroit Lions.
Leading the way is quarterback Alex Smith, who hasn't thrown an interception in a franchise-record 185 consecutive regular-season passes. Smith threw just five picks last season the fewest in the league for a regular starter as San Francisco committed a NFL-low 10 turnovers.
The 49ers have not committed a regular-season turnover since Smith's second-quarter interception against the Baltimore Ravens on Thanksgiving night last year.
They have not lost a fumble since tight end Vernon Davis fumbled after catching a pass from Smith in the fourth quarter of a Nov. 6 victory at Washington. The 49ers have a streak of 36 consecutive quarters without losing a fumble.
Smith doesn't downplay the significance of turnover-free play in San Francisco's return to NFL prominence.
"In the history of the NFL, the strongest correlation to winning and losing is the turnover ratio," Smith said. "The turnover battle is the No. 1."
The 49ers know all about it. They finished 13-3 last season and made their first trip to the playoffs since 2002 after leading the NFL with a plus-28 turnover differential, one of the league's best since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger.
The previous seven seasons, all of which they finished without a winning record, San Francisco committed 221 turnovers and had a cumulative turnover differential of minus-57.
The 49ers changed that dramatically once Jim Harbaugh and a new coaching staff took over the team last year. San Francisco matched the NFL record for fewest turnovers in a season, also held by the 2010 Patriots.
"Ball security relates to your team being successful, and we're very serious about that," Harbaugh said.
The 49ers make a "commitment to taking care of the ball," Harbaugh said, and Smith was transformed by that approach last season.
In his first six NFL seasons, Smith threw 53 interceptions and lost 16 fumbles while throwing 51 touchdown passes. He threw 17 touchdown passes last season, when Smith set a team record for fewest picks in a season, and he lost just two fumbles.
Smith has been most impressive keeping the ball out of the hands of opposing defenders when he goes to the air. He completed 20 of 26 passes without an interception during last week's 30-22 victory at Green Bay, breaking Hall of Famer Steve Young's previous team record of 184 consecutive passes without a pick.
Including San Francisco's two playoff games last season, Smith has now thrown 253 consecutive passes without an interception.
"That's huge, and it's a credit to Alex," offensive coordinator Greg Roman said. "He's got an innate feel for risk management on the fly. A lot of that goes unseen, but it's all calculated by him. He's done an incredible job."
Smith isn't the only one. Three-time Pro Bowl running back Frank Gore, who had two lost fumbles among his 299 touches last season, enters Sunday's game with a career-best string of 226 touches (220 rushes, six receptions) without a lost fumble.
Gore's backup, Kendall Hunter, has never fumbled in his 17 career games. Gore and Hunter combined for 153 yards rushing on 25 carries last week against the Packers.
Harbaugh credits running backs coach Tom Rathman, who played fullback for the 49ers from 1986-1993, with "doing as good a job as any of us have ever seen done," in preparing his unit to protect the football.
"There's no secret to it. We preach it, but we don't preach it to the point of suffocating people," Roman said. "But everybody understands what we're trying to get done.
"We emphasize ball security, how the defense tries to strip the ball, and do all the different things to educate the players on what's coming at them. Anybody that handles the football understands that they've got the collective fate of the team in their hands. If you have the ball, it's your job to protect it. It's that simple."
The 49ers also are getting some help in that regard from their own aggressive defense, which tied for the NFL lead last year with 38 takeaways.
Coaches have instituted "Takeaway Thursdays" each week in practice, where San Francisco's defense stresses stripping the ball and picking off passes from the team's first-string offense.
"It's something that starts on the practice field, and that's where we get it," Smith said. "It starts there, and then carry it over to the field."
League levies fines
Safeties Madieu Williams of Washington, Taylor Mays of Cincinnati and Rahim Moore of Denver have been fined $21,000 each by the NFL for unnecessary roughness in Week 1.
Williams made helmet-to-helmet contact with Jimmy Graham when the Saints tight end was defenseless with about three minutes remaining in Sunday's game at New Orleans. Mays did the same to Baltimore tight end Ed Dickson in a Monday night game. Rahim unnecessarily struck defenseless Steelers receiver Emmanuel Sanders in the head and neck area Sunday night.
Houston DE Antonio Smith says he's been fined $21,000 for kicking Miami guard Richie Incognito, who was not disciplined.
Drawing $15,750 fines were Minnesota defensive end Everson Griffen for helmet-to-helmet contact with Jacksonville quarterback Blaine Gabbert, and Dallas tackle Tyron Smith for a horse collar tackle. Vikings DT Letroy Guion was fined $7,875 for roughing Gabbert.
Kansas City running back Shaun Draughn was fined $7,875 for unnecessary roughness against Atlanta, while Miami center Mike Pouncey drew the same amount for the same act against Houston.
Around the league
Jets • All-Pro cornerback Darrelle Revis has been ruled out for New York's game at Pittsburgh on Sunday with a concussion. Coach Rex Ryan says Revis was cleared for non-contact practice for the first time Friday, but will not play against the Steelers. Revis was injured in the season opener last Sunday against Buffalo when teammate Bart Scott accidentally kicked him in the head.
Dolphins • Running back Daniel Thomas has been ruled out of Sunday's game against Oakland because of a concussion, leaving the team with little experience behind starter Reggie Bush. Thomas was hurt in Sunday's loss at Houston. Rookie Lamar Miller, a fourth-round draft pick from the University of Miami, will likely be active for the first time.
Chargers • San Diego plans to retire Junior Seau's No. 55 before hosting the Tennessee Titans (0-1) on Sunday. No. 55 will join Lance Alworth's No. 19 and Dan Fouts' No. 14 as the only retired numbers in the team's 53-year history. Seau, the hard-hitting, fist-pumping emotional leader of the Chargers for 13 of his 20 NFL seasons, committed suicide on May 2.
