If the Tampa Bay Buccaneers thought there were just going to place Lawrence Tynes on the Non-Football Injury (NFI) list and walk away from the issue, they've got another thing coming — and no, it's not just more angry rants from his wife, Amanda Tynes. Rather, the former New York Giants kicker plans to fight back and will file an expedited grievance against the Bucs, ultimately aimed at forcing them to place him on Injured Reserve (IR).
"This whole thing is wrong," Tynes told FOX Sports exclusively on Saturday. "My biggest emphasis is I don't want this to happen to any current or future player. I'm going to fight this thing as long as I have to, because this team should not be allowed to do this to players."
Tynes' stand isn't just that he suffered a MRSA infection, but because the team chose to place him on the Non-Football Injury (NFI) list as opposed to Injured Reserve (IR). And while, on the surface, it looks like the Bucs are actually doing him a favor by paying him his full salary, that's not exactly the case,
Not only does the NFI designation remove the Bucs from liability, it also prevents an accrued season, full benefits and another season toward Tynes' pension. Ultimately, it's like an injury settlement without an actual settlement or admittance of guilt — which is something he, his family and the NFLPA will not stand for.
"If I drop a 45-pound plate on my foot while lifting weights in the weight room at the facility, it's IR. So I just don't understand how my situation is any different. I went to work, I kicked, I practiced, I cold-tubbed, I hot-tubbed, I showered for all those days there. I come up with MRSA and it's a non-football injury? They're basically trying to exonerate themselves of this, and I'm not going to allow it to happen."
Since learning of MRSA infections to both Tynes and Carl Nicks, the team has scrubbed their facilities multiple times. However, it now sounds like the issue was a lingering one, with their head trainer, Todd Toriscelli, also suffering from what is suspected to be a MRSA infection.
"I'm not a doctor. I just feel bad he's been dealing with a serious infection of some sort for the past four months," Tynes said of Toriscelli.
Despite Tampa Bay's many efforts to sweep this mess under the rug, Tynes is not going to go down without a fight. Perhaps if the team acted professionally and appropriately he could have dealt with the situation differently, but after a misdiagnosis, alleged public lies (by Greg Schiano) and an NFI designation revealed via e-mail, Tynes is justified in his decision to file a grievance and demand IR designation.
Other teams have done the right thing in similar situations, so for everyone's sake, we can only hope the Buccaneers eventually brighten up and do the same.

"Four more years of hearing I'm an arsehole." That was the immediate reaction of 28-year old investment banker James, at a New York bar, as CNN proclaimed victory for
His response to the news was in stark contrast to that of many New Yorkers.
Two street blocks away at a second-hand bookshop turned makeshift bar, the 300-strong crowd of fairly young patrons cheered in unison as President Obama was given the chance to "finish what we started" four years ago.
Democrat supporters embraced each other.
The divergent responses of liberals and financiers epitomised the divisiveness of the bitter election battle between Democrats and Republicans. "I'm just glad it's over," said Andrew McDougall, a technology professional who relocated from California to Manhattan last month.
"I'm sick of arguing about this with my dad, who's a Romney supporter.
"I'm happy because Obama will get the chance to appoint another liberal to a deadlocked Supreme Court, which will be able to grant access to abortion and gay rights in the long term," he added. "But everything else in the Congress will be gridlocked."
New York is a left-leaning city, so it is perhaps no surprise Obama's re-election was overwhelmingly welcomed at bars around town, bankers excluded.
Other exceptions were
Anna, a visiting Dutch national, talked passionately about how important the election result was to her, and to friends back home.
"I'm so happy, this is so good for the world," she said at Times Square, where she had braved the ice-cold conditions with a crowd of thousands.
Earlier, an African American cab driver celebrated when the indicative results on the 8pm New York radio news showed Obama ahead by 57-40, including in two key swing states.
"If [rival Mitt]
But Democrat supporter Andrew McDougall feared Mr Obama could still be headed for war against Iran to protect his legacy against being the first US president to allow Iran to test nuclear weapons.
Paul, the owner of a multinational telco servicing firm, who was enjoying a beer and a plate of bangers and mash at the bar, had a different view.
"I wouldn't cross the road to meet Obama," he said. "He doesn't understand business and he is increasing taxes and regulation on business."

By Jim Corbett, USA TODAY
Baltimore Ravens defensive players buzzed inside the winner's locker room about Willis McGahee's Walter Payton-esque stiff arm that crumpled Oakland Raiders safety Hiram Eugene on McGahee's 77-yard touchdown dash Sunday.
The highlight play from Baltimore's 21-13 clinching win literally punched Baltimore's ticket to Sunday's 1 p.m. wild-card meeting at New England.
"That was the best stiff arm I've ever seen," cornerback Chris Carr said.
POWER RANKINGS: Ravens climb after clinching playoff berth
PLAYOFF SCHEDULE, SEEDS: Road to Super Bowl XLIV
Added defensive end Trevor Pryce: "Willis gave him the shakes, the poor kid was off balance trying to figure where Willis was going to go and Willis just punched him in the face."
That's what these sixth-seeded, John Harbaugh-coached Ravens do — they play slugfest football. Their punishing, fifth-ranked run game averaging 137.5 yards gives them a puncher's chance to go into Foxborough, Mass., on Sunday and avenge a 27-21 Week 4 loss at Gillette Stadium to the third-seed New England Patriots.
"Our physical style is what makes us dangerous," linebacker Terrell Suggs said. "We can play really aggressive.
"That's why a lot of teams don't want to face us in the playoffs because we are so physical and aggressive."
After spending the season as Pro Bowl running back Ray Rice's backup, McGahee flashed fresh legs in his career-best, 167-yard, three-touchdown effort as a powerful changeup to Rice along with fullback Le'Ron McClain.
Take away quarterback Joe Flacco's primary targets, Derrick Mason and Rice, as the Raiders did in holding Flacco to 102 yards passing, and the Ravens' ninth-ranked scoring offense can adapt as they showed with 240 rushing yards.
That clock-consuming, running game may be their best counter to keeping Tom Brady and the league's sixth-ranked scoring offense from exploiting an injury-thinned secondary.
"We have that three-headed monster and it's a good time of year to have those guys," Harbaugh said.
Ravens senior consultant and former Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Al Saunders compares the 5-8, 210 Rice to "a young Priest Holmes."
The Ravens offense runs through Rice, the tackle-breaking dynamo who generated 2,041 yards from scrimmage and is arguably the most dangerous back in the AFC playoff bracket. So, no, the Ravens aren't intimidated facing the three-time Super Bowl champions at Gillette Stadium, where the Patriots are 8-0.
The Patriots appear vulnerable after losing the league-best, 123-catch production of slot receiver Wes Welker to a knee injury.
"Obviously, the Wes Welker injury was somewhat devastating to the Patriots," said former Patriots safety and current NBC analyst Rodney Harrison on a conference call.
"Close to 60% of his passes have gone for first downs … As crazy as it may sound, this serves as motivation because he (coach Bill Belichick) is going to use this to the best of his ability to motivate those guys.
"Basically, what he's going to tell those guys is, 'Look, offensively they feel like we can't put up points. They feel like Wes Welker was the best player outside of Tom Brady on this team and now they're not giving us a chance.' "
How will they react?
"They've always responded with Belichick and they believe they're going to beat the Baltimore Ravens," Harrison said.
For their part, the Ravens have a tempered edge forged by last January's AFC championship game loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers and seven losses this season by 39 combined points.
"In my 14 years, I've never had a pretty road to the playoffs," linebacker Ray Lewis said. "It's always been a grind. But there's no better thing than having that grind and then getting in the dance … Hopefully, we can go further than we did last year."

Convenient to the motorway and to the centre of Andernach.
The welcome, food etc, were all very good, distance from river, Market Place and transport - all very good. I have not ticked any of above boxes, because they did not really apply to our small group. (for myself the weather was on the hot side, but that is an advantage for some) There was room for improvement in the en-suite, there is no reason for complaint,
The staff were very friendly and approachable - a really pleasent atmosphere.
The location was very good-near the staion and town. We had a warm welcome and the rooms were very clean and comfortable. We had lovely breakfasts and could come and go as we pleased keeping our own key. Quiet location.
Hotel was immaculately decorated in typical German style and very comfortable. Breakfast was very good. The only power point was for the TV - one or two additional power points in the room would have been useful
We were met at Reception by Conny , a very friendly and helpful person, who showed us to the room which was very clean indeed. There were 2 bottles of water plus biscuits for us free of charge, which was a very nice touch. The location was reasonably quiet and the comfortable room ensured a restful night. Breakfast was very good indeed with the servery being replenished very frequently. Their brochure describes the hotel as a two star, but in my opinion it is worth much more and very well worth the money charged. In Andernach itself the Restaurant Zum Franziskaner is well worth a visit as the food was fantastic and the prices very good indeed. No. Everything was just right for us.
It was good value for money. We were well informed of the layout of the town and where to find interesting places and resturants. Nothing specific about the hotel except that it is an uphill walk from the station, made more difficult with luggage.
Close to the city center. Good and nice hosts. Good breakfast with the possibility to make your lunch and bring it with you for the day. Better ventilation from the bathroom could have been very nice. Bit more parking space just near the hotel. A bit larger TV.
It is near station
total concept of a hotel garni very well executed with a very good eye for details. very well served our purpose of an overnihgt stay in the beginning of a trekking along the Rhein
Nice location and very pleasant staff. Hotel room was old and bathroom could use a remake.
Le personnel de service est exceptionnel. Room-service. Génial! Parking couvert gratuit à deux pas. WiFi payant La couette du deuxième lit manquante... çA fait un peu froid et austère... L'équipement n'est pas fonctionnel: bureau trop petit, Minibar no-refill, la ventilation de la salle de bains fait un boucan d'enfer, la chasse d'eau est manuelle, le petit déjeuner est quelconque, "l'attitude client" est pingre, voire méfiante... Le Chef est d'une arrogance rare et d'une médiocrité affirmée. Le restaurant dit "gastronomique" est un attrape-couillon et la cuisine "légèrement méditéranéenne" laisse rêveuse... Par contre, la deuxième cuisine.... Celle de la cave des "nigauds" et des ignards des hautes sphères de l'attrappe- couillonnât, celle-ci est excellente... Vu que le chef a fait son apprentissage très certainement dans le genre.... Mais vraiment excellent, tellement qu'on est agréablement surpris ... autant qu'on est désagréablement déçu un étage plus haut... Qui pète légèrement voire vachement plus haut que son cul...
nice room, good atmosphere, excellent food !
very helpful staff good accomodation and an excellent chef great!!!!
Friendly staff, very helpful . Nice location at the border of the Rhine .
A beautiful view of the Rhine river and right next to the old city with many shops and restaurants. The hotel was very clean and the owner let us park our motorcycles in her garage.
The hotel is good and have a perfect stuff.
The restaurant was not open during my stay which was a little inconvient
Welcome from reception, shown to very large room for the 3 of us. Small ensuite but excellent shower. Good breakfast with Rhine views. Helpful staff. Easy to find parking. Homely decor.
The staff were really helpful and sorted out car parking immediately I arrived and made recommendations to what to see nearby.
lovely hotel ,good position by rhine ,very friendly helpful owner ,lovely 1st floor bedroom ,excellent breakfast, will stay there again .
Nice location. Good off-season pricing. We had an unplanned late arrival. Tried several times to inform hotel. Someone finally picked up after the fourth attempt. We were given the feeling that it was a real problem to check in at 23:15. Night porter was grumpy and not very civil. Recommend this hotel only if you arrive before night porter's bedtime!
Nice quiet location, good breakfast buffet, excellenmt view of the river. The lighting system is straight out of a 19th century movie. It's so dim you actually feel your way around instead of seeing.
Nice view, good service
Nice view of river. Dining room good. Room was comfortable. Breakfast was good and afternoon coffee and cakecosting 3.5 euros was good. There was no hotel parking. The evening menu was in German.
The view of the Rhine. Centre of the town quite near. Interesting old city. The kitchen was already closed at 20.00 h. The smell of friture throughout the groundfloor.
lovely riverside hotel - god views of shipping on the Rhine
situated nicely, near the Rhine, in front of the ferry bridge of the KD cruises. Ideal as starting point for excursions (Rhine cruise, Koblenz, Laacher See,etc). Helpfull staff, very clean and a lot of facilities. Excellent service. no free parking space
Friendly owners and staff
This was our third overnight stay over several years and we like the location as well as the food. No
We were given a single room with two beds pushed in-no room for luggage or to walk around to bathroom. Overall condition of hotel was worn and dirty rather than charming.Virtually no reception or help in seeing city. beware
We found hotel staff very friendly and obliging , food and service was excellent.We used the hotel as a base whilst visiting Nurburgring for F1 and it was ideal being only a half hour drive. The only criticism we had was that the restaurant / bar area lacked background music.
Very close to the autoroute and clean.
They had internet access in room for no cost. Big room. No english television except CNN a common problem in germay, It was a hot night no aircon and was noisy as seemed to be a party going on in restaurant maybe cause hot no one could sleep
Excellent evening meal. Close, free parking. Small room.
The hotel was very nice, in excellent condition, you could see that they made strong efforts to keep it nice and they cared. Restaurant service was friendly and fast, food was very good. Free parking right in front of the main door. No.
Wonderful service by Freddy and his team! Thanks for making our stay so welcome! The great views and sounds of the Rhein River(river, trains, barges etc)!
The staff was so helpful and friendly. Love the breakfast buffett.
Good breakfast, good location, big room. No electric sockets in the room. The bath is not convenience for mature poeple.
The staff (owner) was fantastic, he went out of his way to help us with a mix-up in our reservation (a mistake on our part).
Good location overlooking the Rhine. Our request for a room with a river view was met and indeed we had the bonus of a small balcony. Staff were welcoming and provided an excellent breakfast. Overall great value for money.
The micro and macro location of the hotel is excelent - nice location at the river banks of Rhein and close to main interesting places around like Mosel valey, Cologne, Koblenz, Nuerburgring etc. It is a small familly run hotel and the hotel owner is very polite and helpful. A variety of food is served for breakfast. No
The propriator was very helpful and friendly. The breakfast in the morning was first class with the propriator and his wife making eggs and serving coffee to the guests. The hotel lift is small and old
Our room was a good size and looked newly decorated throughout, with great views overlooking the Rhein. We were very impressed by the wide choice of foods at the buffet breakfast. The free wi-fi internet was only available in the downstairs guest lounge. We did complain and five days later, it was possible to access it from our room.
excellent view over the Rhine, central location in Andernach one reason for choosing the hotel was that is advertised as 'pets by arrangement' But when we called to arrange we were told it did not take dogs.
It was right on the Rhine river and right across from the Rhine river Boat docks. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The price is great. Bathrooms are really small but the hotel is a great bargain.
The location was excellent. It was quiet and great for exploring the Rhine and Mosel regions. Manager was outstanding and very helpful in all respects. Pillows were very poor, but were replaced immediately upon request. Heating was also inadequate.
The rooms are all on the second floor and there is no lift, so if you have a problem with stairs this is not the hotel for you. Other than that this is one of my favourite hotels. It's not perfect but I rate it 10 out of 10 because once I get here I can completely relax. The food is excellent and the staff are genuinely friendly.
Quiet, pleasant location. Terrace and gardens. Noisy door locks and latches and slamming doors echo around what is a large old building. Evening meals/snacks, good quality but pricey.
Hotel staff. location (green and peace) It is a little bit tricky find the hotel... but with a Tom tom you can go everywhere...
A nicely appointed and clean hotel with character and in very peaceful and pleasant grounds. The hotel was decorated with original paintings and had a classy feel to it. Finding the hotel may have been difficult without satnav but there was ample parking. The staff were friendly and helpful.
facility was excellent and staff was very hospitable. nothing
The general appearance of the building and the beautiful guest lounge The ultra modernised bedrooms which were clinical, being all white and sparsely furnished
The room was very clean, the staff was friendly and the breakfast was good. Value for money. The room could offer a little bit more comfort ( everything is there, but basic)
We booked 2 bedrooms, we arrived at around 20:00, I had a very nice bedroom however my collegue received a very low quality bedroom in the cellar without window, we asked to change however the hotel was fully booked, they booked another hotel for us but gave us the wrong address, took us 1 hour to find hotel, very bad experience and I would not recommend this hotel to anyone!!!
Nothing Hotel did not offer Facilities as advertised. Resturant was closed. Themed room Morroco was with Swedish Furniture Albiet ratan the only morrocan feel was the casablanca movie picture one wall mirror and 3 small camels on top of the ikea style wardrobe.
wonderful service, location and food
I could not fault this hotel. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, and the staff were very welcoming and helpful. We found the food to be excellent value for money. The only downside to this hotel is that they still allow smoking in the bar area.
Friendliness and welcome from staff
Excellent large room with all facilities required, very clean and excellent food available in the bar area. Very friendly and helpful staff.
Restaurant attached serving good food. Free ample parking. Quiet. The restaurant has two sitting areas: smoking and somewhat less smoking.
Convenience and closeness to the centre of Andernach
wireless Internet, the arrival at the night is possible It is not enough of a soap in the holders of a toilet and shower
The staff were very Kind. We have two children and they were very happy to help
The cleanliness and comfort of the rooms combined with high service from the hotel staff and good food and drinks. Early breakfasts. The W-lan quality varied a lot from room to room and over the time. A strong fire wall prevented my SonicWALL Global VPN connection (a safe 128-bit coded communication) to my desk top in Sweden.
window view over the Rhine. Quiet. Character of the building. Ate dinner and had a very nice meal. Nice breakfast also included in price. Had a couple of restaurants close but not too much nearby.
Fantastic view of the Rhine. Wonderful location. I was also pleasently surprised by the free WiFi. Good receptiion in most rooms.
The hotel catered well for English speaking guests with English translated menu in the Schloss Engers restaurant. We found the food, both breakfast and dinner, to be excellent. Most of the staff did speak English and were very helpful.
The restaurant staff was very helpful. I wish the staff had spoken more English. I asked the room be cleaned one day. New towels appeared and the glasses were not replaced with clean ones.
Design and comfort of room was amazing, everything perfectly done and attention to detail was impressive Indoor swimming pool would have made the spa facilities perfect (separate from the spa area, another room next to the spa area could be an option)
The rooms were big and comfortable. Nothing was translated into English, all the way through the hotel.
Location to central station
Near Newwied station(about 10 min by walk),near city central and also near the Rhine river. If they have inter-net facility, It might comfortable for me.
Nice hotel, well placed near city center. Nice staff with english knowledge. Wireless Internet included. Only a few food choices (only one kind of cheese, one kind of meat, no vegetables) for the breakfast. No parking at the hotel and very difficult parking in the area.
Nice, clean, comfortable hotel. Very nice breakfast buffet.
Nothing much, but brfeakfast was reasonable. Ghastly building design.
Breakfast very good, good standard of hygiene. Room clean, mini-bar very useful, not too expensive. Liked the balcony, chairs not very comfortable, loungers would have been nice. Would have liked someone to have been on site when we arrived.

Green Funerals: A Guide to Eco Friendly Funerals
Eco friendly funerals are a last opportunity to reduce our carbon footprint as well as a last chance to make a positive impact on the world we leave behind. However, there is much debate within the green movement about what constitutes green or eco friendly funerals. There are many choices to be made in the planning of an eco friendly funeral and some of them may include which has the least, as opposed to no, impact on the environment.
Are Eco Friendly Funerals Affordable?
Many people are surprised to know that green funerals are much more affordable than conventional ones. Eliminating unnecessary processes and choosing earth friendly funeral products significantly reduces the cost of a funeral, not only leaving less impact on the environment, but less burden on loved ones as well.
Choices in Eco Friendly Funerals
One of the first choices in planning an eco friendly funeral is the decision to be buried or cremated. There are many assumptions made about which leaves the lesser impact, but each has both positive and negative points. For example, cremation can be a positive choice because it eliminates the use of toxic chemicals in the preservation of the body which eventually escape into the environment. However, though the industry has done much to reduce toxic emissions, the process can cause environmental damage in the smoke and toxins released into the air. Conventional burials are also a concern with the use of embalming fluids, caskets made from non- biodegradable materials, and cement burial chambers.
When making your decision, it is important to know what is available. Consider these eco friendly funeral choices:
Whether or not to embalm is a choice in most states. Though not embalming will necessitate a sooner burial, it will also cause less environmental damage. Be certain to check if the cemetery allows non embalmed remains.
Burial chambers are also a choice in most states and can avoid putting unnecessary cement in the ground. Be certain to check with the cemetery to see if you can opt out on this.
There are many choices in eco friendly burial containers, from simple pine coffins to recycled cardboard containers which have been beautifully decorated.
For cremation, there are biodegradable urns, as well as recycled paper spreaders which float beautifully on the water for a moment before being committed to the sea. Many memorial reefs have also been created to have remains not only become part of, but add value to the environment.
Make Others Aware of Your Choices
If it is your desire to have a green funeral, it is best to put the plans in place ahead of time. There are many things about the availability of green products that, were you not to plan ahead, the one left to make arrangements may be unaware. When pre-planning an eco friendly funeral, remember these things:
Create a living will to make your wishes and desires known
Note your desire for either cremation or burial
Have a list available of eco friendly burial containers
Make family or friends aware of any funeral homes and cemeteries that specialize in green funeral planning
As more and more people become aware of the advantages of eco friendly funerals, more products and choices will become available. Green burials use less energy, create less waste, cost less and create a lasting positive impact on the environment.

As I read about the adventures of others, I constantly remind myself of the motto of Hiking Lady: "Let the Adventuring Begin"! I recently came across an excellent Appalachian Trail Map published by the National Park Service, and it made me realize how many amazing places there are along the AT!
Click here for a PDF of the Appalachian Trail Map
Click here for a JPG of the Appalachian Trail Map
The Appalachian Trail (fondly known as the A.T.), is a popular journey for thru-hikers, section hikers, and recreational day trippers. (If you don't know what thru-hikers and section hikers are, check out this Ask Hiking Lady page on thru-hiking). The idea of the Appalachian Trail was thought up in 1921, and by 1937 private citizens built the 2,175 mile long trail! Impressive!
This Appalachian Trail map captures some of its massiveness – it extends all the way from Georgia to Maine, passes through 14 states, and numerous ecological zones.
Other fun facts about the A.T.:
- It is a total of 2,175 miles long. However, there are many other numbers I've seen for the distance. Bottom line – it is long!
- Portions of the A.T. are enjoyed by 4 million people per year
- The A.T. is within a day's drive of 66% of the U.S. population
Hiking Lady's Recommended Books & Movies about the Appalachian Trail
- Bill Bryson's A Walk in the Woods Check out the HL book review of A Walk in the Woods here.
- David Miller's AWOL on the Appalachian Trail
- DVD: TREK – A Journey on the Appalachian Trail
Have you hiked parts of the A.T.? Are any Hiking Lady readers thru-hikers of the A.T.? Please share your stories and comments below!
Happy Trails!

How should I pay for art?
Step inside an experimental economy with no money -- but lots of exchange.Continue reading
In his 2012 book Stealth of Nations, Robert Neuwirth challenges conventional thinking by examining the world's informal economy close up. To do so, he spent four years living and working with street vendors and gray marketers, to capture its scope, its vigor--and its lessons. He calls it "System D" and argues that it is not a hidden economy, but a very visible, growing, effective one, fostering entrepreneurship and representing 1.8 billion jobs worldwide.
Before this, for his previous book Shadow Cities (also a TEDTalk), he spent two years exploring one of the most profound trends of our time: the mass migration of the world's population into urban shantytowns. A billion people live as squatters. Life in a favela, slum, shantytown is hard: no water, no transport, no sewage. But in the squatter cities of Rio, Nairobi, Istanbul and Mumbai, Neuwirth discovered restaurants, markets, clinics and effective forms of self-organization.
Our challenge, Neuwirth says, isn't to end squatter cities or shut down gray markets--but to engage and empower those who live and work in them.
"[Neuwirth shines] an investigative lens into areas of urban life that have seldom been described before." — Reason magazine

When we hear the phrase "the economy," often the first images that pop to mind are crisp bills being printed in a government treasury, or suited traders wheeling and dealing on the floor of a stock exchange, or a mall where suburban shoppers buy T-shirts and sneakers before grabbing a Cinnabon. But as journalist Robert […]Continue reading
"In System D, this is a store," says Robert Neuwirth as he shows a photo of a woman sitting on a plank beside a canal in Makoko in Lagos, a booming shantytown built on stilts over the water. It's a place where "there are no streets where there are stores to shop, and so the shop comes […]Continue reading

A tweet from Wikileaks says Julian Assange has confirmed he will run for the Australian Senate.
Queensland-born Assange, who founded Wikileaks, announced his senate ambitions last December from Ecuador's London embassy, where he sought refuge last June in a bid to avoid extradition to Sweden over rape claims.
Mr Assange fears Swedish authorities could extradite him to the United States to be questioned over WikiLeaks' release of thousands of US diplomatic cables.
His mother Christine Assange says her son will be awesome.

A new world has opened up to me, now that Bookkid is going to school. In fact it's like visiting a different country. There are many aspects that are different in this land. You venture there with fellow travelers, by bicycle, by car or on foot. The weird thing is that the borders are only open during specific times and sometimes they close this country for weeks at a time! Fortunately they speak the same language, but they have a distinct accent. The inhabitants seem to communicate with instructions, often in a child-like manner. Visits are limited to about five minutes a time, unless you belong to a certain age segment of the population, in which case you spend a big part of the day there. Outside this segment, a visa is issued to people who have specific training.
Generally you start school with a clean slate, nobody knows who you are. The school and the child discover each other with an open mind. And the same applies to the parent. The staff at the school, the other parents and the kids, do not know what you do, what you have done or who you are. In my case this means I am a tourist visiting a country where nobody knows I have Rheumatoid Arthritis. Obviously when I meet someone for the first time, they do not know I have this disease. And walking around town it is, fortunately, not apparent that I have RA.
The situation at Bookkid's school is different. Here we have a large group of people who I'm getting to know and who do not know I have RA. Standing outside the school with the other parents, I blend in the crowd. Undoubtedly a time will come when this news will become known, probably during a teacher-parent conference or any volunteer work I will participate in. But I think I will try to delay that moment for as long as I can. I enjoy my brief visits to this country where I have no RA. I enjoy the RA-anonymity.
Thank you for your time, take care of yourself and remember to keep passing the open windows.

The rumor mill is cranking up again with fresh new rumors about two new Motorola Android handsets being unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. According to industry analyst Trip Chowdhry of Global Equities Research, Motorola may announce a new Android phone for AT&T and one for Verizon Wireless, both sporting OLED screens.
Mr. Chowdhry's sources indicate that the AT&T handset will have a physical keyboard and offer a Google software environment instead of Motorola's MotoBlur software. The second Android handset that may be announced will be for Verizon Wireless and have a soft keyboard.
Given that Motorola is scheduled for an event on January 6th at 5:30 p.m. in Las Vegas, it could be a safe bet that we will know if this rumor is true on that date. Stay tuned.
source: Barron's
Time to take another small detour down rumor lane — Taiwanese newspaper Digitimes reports that Orange is contracted with Foxconn International Holdings to build their very own carrier-designed handset. Their handset is expected to include Qualcomm's 3G chipset and may ship sometime in the second quarter of 2010. If this rumor bears fruit, this new Orange handset will be offered alongside the Motorola Dext and the HTC Tattoo. It will be interesting to see what Orange comes up with given their control over the design process.
source: Android Authority
With the expected arrival of the Google Phone aka Nexus One closing in on a target release date of January 5, T-Mobile has spilled the beans on their plan for the expected launch. Through an internal system at T-Mobile, there is a vague message about an Android handset coming in the early weeks of January and their planned support for it. It's mostly vague and not too detailed about T-Mobile's part – they won't offer any support unless it's related to billing, coverage, features, and rate plans. So that means it'll fall on both Google and HTC to offer troubleshooting and exchanges on the handset. Sources from TmoNews have reported and confirming the January 5th date with ordering commencing at 9:00 AM through Google only.
In addition, Google will be holding a special Android press event in Mountain View – most likely the Google Phone will makes it grand introduction at the event. Specific pricing information about it is still in the dark and will probably surface relatively soon.
source: Engadget and TmoNews
With all of the excitement revolving around the coming introduction of the Nexus One, two new videos have surfaced relating to the device. The first is a review by someone who claims that if a Google employee takes a picture or video of the handset, he/she will be fired. The reviewer has very positive things to say about the phone, from the speed of what he believes is the Snapdragon processor under the hood, to the "cool" background of the display. He calls the handset the best Android phone ever, running the 2.1 OS build. Later on, he says it is "The best phone that I have ever tried in my life." The "Cool" thing he says, is that he does not have a data plan but can still activate the phone, unlike the other Android models out now. Don't let us ruin the fun for you. Check out the rest of the review and figure out a way to get the "Golden Ticket" so you will be able to buy one at launch. The second video shows a series of still shots of the phone and follows with some demo shots that came from the Nexus One's own camera.

One of Gizmodo's tipsters has leaked some really juicy information concerning the Android powered Nexus One. Additionally two screenshots have been taken that clearly displays that Google will be selling it directly for an unlocked and subsidized price of $530. Lessening the blow, you can catch it for $179.99 on contract with T-Mobile on a $79.99 monthly plan that includes 500 minutes, unlimited text, and data. Current T-Mobile customers cannot keep their existing plan and require them to change to the one offered if they want to get it for the $180 price.
Other important worthy items to note is that there is a limit of 5 Nexus One phones per Google account. Finally, Google will automatically charge you $350 if you buy the phone at the subsidized price and cancel your plan before 120 days. All the talk about the Nexus One being a handset built by Google is put to rest – the term of sale states the manufacturer of the handset is HTC; not Google. According to Gizmodo, the information provided by the tipster is pretty accurate – so now you can deliberate on whether or not the Nexus One may be the right phone for you.

One of the most anticipated programs for Android phones is Swype, which made its official debut on the Windows Mobile Samsung Omnia II earlier this month. At that time, we heard that the text entry program would be made available on other devices (including Android) in 2010. Even though we have a few days to go until Jan 1st, it appears a beta release of Swype has been leaked out and is avaliable for all you Android lovin' users to install and try out. Just follow the directions and download link on Droidmuff and you'll be good to go. We tried it on the Motorola DROID and didn't have any problems using it. In fact, it worked better than on the Samsung Omnia II, since the DROID's screen is capacitive and only requires a slight touch.

Despite the combination of a weak economy and high priced ads, a mixture that has forced even Pepsi to sit out the Super Bowl for the first time in 20 years, Motorola has decided to show at least one ad during the big game. This info comes from Advertising Age where it is reported that the Schaumburg based firm has coughed up the money for at least one commercial. Company spokesmen are not talking. 30 seconds of air time cost $2.5-$3 million dollars. Which product(s) would Motorola center the ad campaign on? Considering what's at stake, the heavy favorite would be the DROID especially since the Nexus One should be in the hands of the public well before the February 7th kick-off of Super Bowl 44 in Miami. For Motorola, buying a Super Bowl ad is another sign that the cellphone manufacturer has made an amazing recovery from the dead-the same recovery that everyone assumed Palm would be going through by now after the early 2009 introduction of the Palm Pre. Sales of the Pre never came close to expectations after an early June release and it was Motorola's stunning Android 2.0 device that became the first handset able to hang with the iPhone. The DROID also was named Time Magazine's Gadget of the Year, beating out the fourth place iPhone 3GS.
Motorola appears to be the only electronics company marketing itself during the game as the only other tech firms paying up for ads are online firms GoDaddy and HomeAway. The company has promoted phones during the Super Bowl before such as its RAZR and PEBL devices. As for the DROID's carrier, Verizon apparently is not involved in the spots.

As probably all Android worshippers know, users of smartphones with the stock operating system are getting their updates regularly, but what about the ones with Sense-powered devices? Last time we reported on the matter there were just a few screenshots to give you an idea of how the new version of the interface may look like on top of the Android 2.1 OS. The file containing the software was also available, and it seems someone has decided to try it for themselves on their Teflon-coated HTC Hero. Fortunately, the curious user has also shot a short video demonstration. You can check it out below in order to see the new interface in motion. Anyone else willing to try it on their Hero? Does the new Sense UI look appeal to you?

Now, here is another piece of information we can add to our article on what we know about the HTC Nexus One – a rumor has surfaced on the Internet saying "Google´s handset" is to go on sale January 5, but only for the lucky few who have been sent invitations. As of now, it´s still unclear what you´re supposed to do to get an invite to the party, but we guess you need to be an Android software developer or something. Still, we can safely assume ordinary users will be able to buy the HTC Nexus One relatively soon afterwards, so fingers crossed.
What got leaked along with the above-mentioned information was detailed specifications of the HTC Nexus One and it seems the previous rumors hinting at certain features were true indeed. The device is expected to run Android 2.1 and come with a 3.7-inch AMOLED display and 5-megapixel camera with LED flash. There are, however, new facts like the amount of memory the HTC Nexus One will be equipped with – 512MB RAM and 512MB ROM respectively, plus Google has obviously decided to throw a 4GB microSD card into the deal to sweeten the pot. The leaked specifications also reveal the cell phone supports T-Mobile´s 3G frequencies, which sort of confirms the previous information that this is the US carrier the Nexus One will roll out through.

It seems one of the things the new year is bringing along is a plethora of Android devices, because they have been popping up out of nowhere at a steady rate for quite some time now. Say, we´ve just found out about the LG LS680 by a picture coming from Sprint´s internal database. Actually, there is no other information on the new device other than it will be running Android and roll out through the said carrier. We´re guessing it will sport a large, touch-sensitive screen (like all other cell phones based on the same operating system) and, probably, hardware QWERTY keyboard. Actually, we bet $1 this is the CDMA version of the LG GW620 (none other but LG´s first Android-based handset). But that´s enough with speculations, we believe more details on the LG LS680 will turn up quite soon, plus CES 2010 is just around the corner and there is a pretty good chance that this is exactly the event where the handset will be officially announced.

Team members also participate as judges and instructors at high school tournaments and debate institutes for the Hawaiian Speech League and the Hawaiian Home School League.
About Debate:
There are many different formats of debate practiced throughout the world. The Sea Warrior squad primarily participates in two formats modeled after British Parliament. The first style is used at local island tournaments and consists of two opposing three person teams. Topics for each preliminary round are announced about a month before each tournament. The second style is used at our Pan Pacific Championship and the World Universities Debating Championship (WUDC). It is often referred to simply as "Worlds style." In this extemporaneous style of debate, teams are given 15 minutes before the start of each round to prep arguments for or against a motion (an assertion such as "child labor is morally unjustified"). Motions are different every round and cover a wide range of political and philosophical subjects.
Only in recent years have US universities consistently hosted Worlds style tournaments and exclusively participated in this style even though some schools have a long history of competing at WUDC. This means the Sea Warrior squad is in the world of college debate at an exciting time. The increased focus many US universities have put on Worlds style debate has paid off as American teams are now regularly placing in the top 32 (if not 4!) of the 330+ teams that compete at WUDC every year.

text: It's difficult to determine exactly when Steve Martin stopped caring, but it probably happened sometime during the early '90s. The commercial failure of L.A. Story and the success of the execrable Father Of The Bride seemed to indicate a huge audience for films in which he engaged in tame, middlebrow pratfalls, and a significantly smaller one for films in which he attempted to do anything the least bit challenging. Throughout subsequent films—Father Of The Bride Part II, HouseSitter, Mixed Nuts—Martin wore a beleaguered look of exasperation, as if to say, "Christ, the things a guy has to do to earn $10 million nowadays!" Martin is in familiar uninvolved form throughout The Out-Of-Towners, playing an upper-middle-class executive who travels to New York alongside ditsy spouse Goldie Hawn to interview for a prestigious job with an advertising agency. The Out-Of-Towners establishes its comedic premise early on, as Hawn helpfully explains to Martin that he is an uptight bore while she is a flighty free spirit and, appropriately enough, the next 90 minutes consist mainly of inept slapstick skits revolving around the mismatched pair and the predictable road they take toward reconciliation. Martin flails, Hawn brays, and John Cleese and Mark McKinney show up to sleepwalk through supporting roles as a snobby concierge and a randy Hollywood agent, respectively. As in the Father Of The Bride movies, the filmmakers here seem to be operating under the assumption that there's something funny or likable about Martin's wealthy, uptight, slightly zany WASP character and his mild-mannered antics. There's not, and director Sam Weisman's pushy, subtlety-free direction certainly doesn't help. Martin is still capable of making a decent film, but The Out-Of-Towners isn't it.

1. Re: Lost Phone - GPS location ongaretjaxthemise Apr 7, 2009 1:12 AM (in response to sydodle)There is no way for VZW to track your device for you, even if it is in 'Location On'. You could try to contact your local law enforcement to see if they can track it, otherwise you'll have to rely on a good samaritan
2. Re: Lost Phone - GPS location onnicknrm Apr 8, 2009 4:03 AM (in response to garetjaxthemise)
Generally, location on doesn't really mean much except for the fact you can now use Location Based Services such as VZNavigator or Chaperone.
The local law enforcement agency WILL NOT provide you the location of your device...even if it is lost or even stolen. They rarely use their ability to track the GPS anyway. They usually only use it when you call 911 and then hang up. They won't do a "courtesy track" for you.
Also, Verizon Wireless keeps and never receives any records of your phones location EVER...except the city and state you're placing calls from.
Hope this helped!
3. Re: Lost Phone - GPS location onmdram Apr 8, 2009 2:01 PM (in response to sydodle)
well IF the gps were unlocked and you had google latitude or some other app, then you could find it
but since it only works with vzw apps maybe they will offer a service of 9.99 a month to track the location of your phone in case you lose it
4. Re: Lost Phone - GPS location onSMRyan Apr 8, 2009 3:21 PM (in response to mdram)Would be nice, but would defeat the purpose of why they have it blocked for security reasons.
5. Re: Lost Phone - GPS location onBAN Apr 13, 2009 11:18 PM (in response to sydodle)the only way to track a VZW phone is through Chaperone which has to be downloaded to the actuall phone. sorry but no other way to track it and most likeyly the phone is powered off by now Chaperone only would work if the phone is on.
6. Re: Lost Phone - GPS location onKilo08-09 Apr 27, 2009 4:58 AM (in response to nicknrm)I lost my phone a few nights ago and the best way i found was to use my bluetooth earpiece and back-track where i went. Im in the National Guard at a post in Oklahoma being trained before i goto Iraq. I walked the same route i took when i lost it and couldnt find it. Then i rememberd i had a Bluetooth so i walked through the barracks to see if someone had picked it up and could i find where in the building that person might be and lo and behold, i got a signal and found my phone! The Bluetooth has about a 30 ft range from your phone and the closer you are to it the better the signal is so, it didnt take long to find it once i tried that. Hope that enlightens the unfortunate ones of us that lose our phones because the gps doesnt help at all to find it but a Bluetooth can, but only in a situation like mine where you have someone close that picked it up and you can walk the route you took or the halls of the barracks, or even your home if you misplaced it. Hopefully its still working like mine was! Take care all, and i hope that helps!! Happy hunting!!

Since we expect a quite large number of participants from different communities we know, that most of them are used to different modes. Here I ask you to vote for the most suitable mode for you and maybe write some of your own ideas.
Don't forget that even with game up for one win, the whole tourney for at least 4 teams takes approximately 3 hours to complete.
Finals will be up to two wins.

Tree Stand
One of my favorite places is my tree stand.
Though I haven't yet had time to use it, the serenity of the area is relaxing to me.
The hours spent sitting in this stand are relaxing and exhilarating.
I ussually just end up watching the squirrels play, they really know how to put on a show!
I have found it relaxing to just watch the light crawling away from the field on a fall evening,
The sounds of the trees swaying in the wind. Calm.
