The Low Anthem is an American indie folk band from Providence, Rhode Island, formed in 2006. The band consists of Ben Knox Miller (vocals, guitar), Jeff Prystowsky (drums, etc.), Bryan Minto (guitar, etc.) and Florence Wallis (vocals, violin).
Founded by duo Ben Knox Miller and Jeff Prystowsky, The Low Anthem recorded and self-released two studio albums, The Low Anthem (2006) and What The Crow Brings (2007), before the arrival of vocalist and clarinetist Jocie Adams in 2007. In 2008, the band released its third studio album, Oh My God, Charlie Darwin, and increased its fanbase significantly with the album's re-release on Nonesuch Records and Bella Union.
In 2009, multi-instrumentalist and longtime friend Mat Davidson joined the band for its fourth studio album, Smart Flesh (2011), which was recorded in an abandoned pasta sauce factory. During The Low Anthem's tour in support of the album, Davidson left the band and was replaced by bassist and trumpet player Mike Irwin. Five months later, the band added a fifth member to its line-up, guitarist and bassist Tyler Osborne.
In a message to fans in June 2013 during the recording of their fifth studio album, the band announced that Jocie Adams was departing The Low Anthem to focus on her new project, Arc Iris.[1]
2006–2007: Formation and What the Crow Brings[edit]
Ben Knox Miller and Jeffrey Prystowsky met while DJing an overnight jazz show on a Brown University radio station, WBRU. They became friends and teammates for a local wood-bat baseball team called the Providence Grays. Miller and Prystowsky played in various ensembles together ranging from classical and jazz to electronica, and the Low Anthem was formed in 2006. In the fall of 2006, Dan Lefkowitz, a bluesman from Strasburg, Virginia, joined the band and contributed to its evolving brand of songwriting with his song "This God Damn House." Early in 2007, Lefkowitz left the band to pursue simple living in a yurt in Arkansas. The band became a trio again in late 2007 with the addition of classical composer and clarinetist Jocie Adams, a fellow student and former NASA intern, who joined the band after a late-night recording session for the band's album What The Crow Brings. She appears on vocals and clarinet on the album's closing track, "Coal Mountain Lullaby."
What the Crow Brings was recorded in Miller's and Prystowsky's apartments over several months and was then self-released on October 2, 2007. The band took on every aspect of manufacturing the album including dumpster diving for empty cereal boxes to fold into album sleeves, creating the silkscreens for the album art, and hand painting and serial-numbering 600 copies of the album.
2008–2009: Oh My God, Charlie Darwin[edit]
The Low Anthem recorded and self-released its third album, Oh, My God, Charlie Darwin on September 2, 2008. The band traveled to Block Island in the middle of winter and spent ten days recording the tracks that would become the album, with engineer and co-producer Jesse Lauter. After the album was completed, the band returned to the island to handpaint and silkscreen the first 2000 copies of the album. The band did a release tour booked by booking agent Jeff "The Scarecrow" Jones.
While touring, the Low Anthem first gained some recognition in the UK when Rough Trade Shops decided to make it an Album of the Month. End of the Road Festival then booked the band and released a 7" single of "Charlie Darwin" coinciding with the celebration of Darwin Day.
The band signed record deals with both Nonesuch Records and the UK label Bella Union and both rereleased Oh, My God, Charlie Darwin after Bob Ludwig re-mastered the disc. There was new artwork and the track order was resequenced.
In the summer of 2009, the band played US festivals Bonnaroo, Lollapalloza, the Newport Folk Festival, and Austin City Limits. In addition to headlining shows throughout Europe, The Low Anthem also played Glastonbury, Hyde Park Calling, Wireless, and End of the Road Festivals in the UK.
In November, The Low Anthem released its debut music video for Charlie Darwin, a claymation work by Glenn Taunton and Simon Taffe. On November 20, 2009, The Low Anthem made its television debut on Later... with Jools Holland.[2] During its November 2009 tour in Europe, Mat Davidson, an old friend and multi-instrumentalist, joined the band.
The beginning of 2010 saw the band's first US television appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman, where it performed "Charlie Darwin", and a short tour in Europe, including its biggest headlining show at Shepherds Bush Empire. The band returned to the US to support The Avett Brothers and then completed its first headline tour of the USA.
2009–2012: Smart Flesh[edit]
From December 2009 until February 2010, the band recorded its fourth album, Smart Flesh, in the abandoned Porino's pasta sauce factory in Central Falls, RI.[3] The album was engineered by Jesse Lauter and mixed by Mike Mogis (Bright Eyes). The album was released February 22, 2011. The band released "Ghost Woman Blues", the first song on the record as a free download in December on its Web site. The band appeared again on the Late Show with David Letterman on January 12, 2011, performing "Ghost Woman Blues."
Mat Davidson played his last show with the band on July 9, 2011 in Quebec and has since been replaced by multi-instrumentalist Mike Irwin. Upon Davidson's exit, the band noted, "He is a friend, an incredible musician, and we will all miss him dearly."[4] In December 2011, the band added Tyler Osborne to its line-up, stating on its official website, "Our newest Low Anthem member joined us earlier last week at 6:55 PM in Providence, Rhode Island after an eleven-hour pilgrimage from his hometown of Roanoke, Virginia. His name, already given, is Tyler Osborne, and he's as good as they come, a great multi-talented musician, and a great guy.[5] Osborne's first shows with the band were in Canada, whilst the band supported City & Colour.
On December 20, 2011, the band released an album for free under the alter-ego Snake Wagon, entitled Have Fun With Snake Wagon.[6] The album was recorded during the same sessions as Smart Flesh.
The band recently announced plans for a hiatus from touring following its current commitments. An announcement on the band's official website stated, "We know the Darwin/Smart Flesh material inside and out. [...] Maybe some artists reach this point and become safer, more refined, imitations of themselves. We're not interested. So, we've decided that this upcoming tour will be the last tour of the chapter. The last tour devoted to this material, this incarnation. A final hurrah. A sweet goodbye. The refined completion of three years of work. It's anything you want it to be, but it will be the last for a while. It's not the end. There is no end. But it's the last one for a while. We have too many unfulfilled ideas in the works to stay out on the road. We've got 40+ new songs in the wings. Two very different albums to record. Blueprints for a handful of electro-light sculptures. But it's going to take some time back home, to turn the page and build a new sound world. To burn the furniture."[5]
Despite the band's announcement of a potential respite from touring, the band continued to tour extensively in support of Smart Flesh.
On March 16, 2012, the band opened for Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band at the Moody Theatre in Austin, Texas. They also joined him onstage, along with Tom Morello, Jimmy Cliff, Eric Burdon, members of Arcade Fire, Joe Ely, and Alejandro Escovedo, for the show's finale cover of Woody Guthrie's "This Land is Your Land."
2012–present: Arcadia soundtrack and Eyeland[edit]
On February 22, 2012, the band announced that they had recorded a soundtrack album for the forthcoming film, Arcadia. The band's website stated, "The soundtrack is self-engineered and was recorded in a week. It consists of a few composed songs and harvested sections of epic improvised sessions. It was a new process for us."[7]
The band have been recording their fifth studio album in an abandoned opera house.[8] In June 2013, The Low Anthem revealed that Jocie Adams had left the band to pursue a solo career under the name Arc Iris.[9] She was replaced by Florence Wallis.
In 2016, the band signed to Washington Square Music, an imprint of Razor & Tie.[10] They released their fifth studio album Eyeland through the label on June 17.[11][12] Later in June that year, the band was in a car accident and suspended their tour to recover from their injuries.[13]

Volume 7, Issue 2: Repairing the Ruins
Secondary Doctrine
Douglas Wilson
Christians differ on all
kinds of things, but the fact that this is so does not justify the practice.
Paul tells us plainly that part of our duty in Christian living is to be of the
same mind with other Christians (Rom. 12:16; 1 Cor. 1:10; Phil. 3:16; 4:2).
The force of this admonition has been blunted far too long with the idea that
disobedience can be justified simply through disagreeing with one another
pleasantly. This device does keep us from compounding our sin of disunity
of mind with the sin of malice, but this is not the same as leaving our sin of
disunity of mind.

Alan Joyce's desperate push to protect Qantas
Credit rating agency Moody's Investor's Service has said a demonstration of support by the federal government will help Qantas maintain its investment grade credit rating, but added the airline may still ultimately need to consider measures such as deferring aircraft purchases to save its rating.
"We consider that the provision of government support would be credit positive for the airline, but the degree of benefit would depend on a range of factors," the agency said.
The agency's statement was in response to Treasurer Joe Hockey's comments that the government would consider its options in helping the struggling airline, which is locked in a bitter lobbying war against rival carrier Virgin.
Moody's said the extent to which government backing would help its credit rating would depend on a range of factors which include: whether the government support relates to certain classes of debt; whether the government support is through letters or verbal support; or whether the government takes an ownership stake in Qantas.
The Australian Financial Review on Friday revealed that former transport and infrastructure minister Anthony Albanese had provided a letter of support to Qantas to fend off a potential credit ratings downgrade.
Significant adverse consequences from loss of rating
Qantas is one of a handful of investment grade rated airlines in the world and relies heavily on its rating to maintain affordable cost of funds in addition to favourable leasing, hedging and payment arrangements with its counter-parties.
A loss of its investment grade credit rating could have significant adverse consequences for the airline. Both Moody's and Standard & Poor's have assigned a rating to Qantas that is one notch above investment grade, however a costly dog-fight with rival Virgin could threaten that rating.
While Moody's has described a show of support as "credit positive" it added that Qantas' credit rating would still come under pressure.
"A form of government support would offset the effects of a very challenging domestic business, which faces downward yield pressure, driven by surplus capacity," the agency said.
"We expect Qantas' yields – which measure the revenue earned per passenger kilometre – to continue experiencing downward pressure over the next 12-18 months."
Surplus capacity 'negatively affecting profitability'
Moody's said Qantas had added surplus capacity to defend its 66 per cent share of the domestic airline market from aggressive competition from Virgin.
"In the absence of Qantas' management undertaking countermeasures to counteract the fall in yields – for example through the deferral of aircraft purchases – the weakening operating conditions will continue to exert downward pressure on the airline's credit metrics," the agency said.
The agency said that "load factor" – a measure of how much capacity in the airline market has been below its long term average since March 2012.
"We believe that this is the result of Qantas' and Virgin's capacity expansions in 2012, and which exceeded the growth in passenger demand. This surplus capacity is negatively affecting their profitability," the Moody's report said.

The death of the ''reluctant American hero'' Neil Armstrong has been marked with a funeral in the humble style of a man who shunned the limelight that was bestowed on him for 43 years, having accomplished one of the signature deeds of the 20th century.
When Armstrong became the first person to set foot on the moon, on July 20, 1969, uttering those famous words, ''That's one small step for man … '' he was orbited into global stardom. He went out of this world, as he would have wanted, in the strictest privacy.
The memorial service, held at a golf club in Cincinnati, close to his home in the countryside of south-west Ohio, was attended by family, friends and the veterans of space travel.
Flags flew at half mast across the US on Friday and four US Navy F/A-18 fighter jets flew in a solemn missing man formation over the funeral.
''This service is closed to the media - with no exceptions,'' a note from the family directed.
Only one camera, that of the NASA photographer Bill Ingalls, was allowed to record the event.
The family has arranged for a national service on Washington on September 12.
The moon seemed to have been listening, preparing to rise in full for a second time within the calendar month, the rare ''blue moon'', a fitting tribute to a man of rare qualities.
Among the confirmed guests were the NASA administrator, Charles Bolden, as well as 10 of Armstrong's fellow astronauts. They included John Glenn, the first American to orbit the Earth.
Jim Lovell, who commanded the stricken moon mission Apollo 13, was also in attendance. Earlier, he and Eugene Cernan, the last to walk on the moon with Apollo 17 in 1972, launched a children's health fund in Armstrong's honour at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Centre. At the ceremony, Lovell called Armstrong ''a great American'' who just ''wanted to be a team player''. Cernan added that ''there's nobody that I know of that could have accepted the challenge and responsibility that came with [the first moon landing] with more dignity than Neil Armstrong''.
The two men told how they had seen Armstrong at his home in Indian Hill just two months before his death from complications from a heart operation. Armstrong cooked breakfast for them both, burning the eggs. Armstrong's two sons were to speak at the service, which also included a Navy ceremonial guard. The eulogy was to be read by Rob Portman, Republican senator for Ohio, who, when the astronaut died last Saturday at 82, issued a statement that read: ''For my family and me, he was a dear friend whose ready smile, quick wit and thoughtful gestures will be greatly missed.''
The choice of Portman as eulogist was something of a paradox. He came close to being chosen as Mitt Romney's running mate in this year's Republican presidential campaign, which has been characterised by extreme partisanship and an emphasis on small government.
Armstrong's act, along with Apollo 11 fellow crewman Buzz Aldrin, in walking on the moon was by contrast the ultimate manifestation of post-war American consensus and faith in big government. It was initiated under John Kennedy's Democratic administration and seen to fruition by the Republican Richard Nixon.
The walk lasted two hours and 19 minutes and gave Armstrong worldwide celebrity that he spent most of the rest of his life attempting to shrug off. He chose a quiet life as an engineering professor and farmer.
He leaves two sons, a wife and former wife, step-children and grandchildren, footprints on the surface of the moon, a moon crater named after him and a plaque near the Sea of Tranquillity that reads: ''We came in peace for all mankind.''

My First Impressions – MS Optical Perar Super Triplet 28mm F4
Welcome to the inaugural launch of this website!
DISCLAIMER!!!: My reviews are only based on the images I take and how user friendly it is. Some images will be post processed with slight crops and pushing or pulling on the contrast or darks. That is about the only post work I do. I am not knowledgeable about equipment from any technical point of view. So if any one expects to read detailed specifications or any tech reviews, there are other sites that have the expertise. And, my bias is based on if the lens helps me capture the image I envisioned.
I had the pleasure of meeting Bellamy Hunt of Japan Camera Hunter. He was here in Los Angeles to head the Los Angeles Street Photography Workshop with Rinzi Ruiz, where I was a guest presenter and an attendee. Bellamy brought with him a few toys for us to play with. One of which is the world's tiniest 28mm lens for the M-mount I have ever seen: the MS Optical Perar Super Triplet 28mm F4 ('Triplet' is spelled incorrectly on the lens I used – might make it a rarity).
I was able to shoot with it for about one hour. I used my M9 with Aperture priority at F8 and the occasional F6 or F9. My ISO was set at 400 and I zone focussed.
This lens is a 3 element tessar type, 28mm F4. Visually it is the most fascinating lens I have ever seen. The aperture blades are on the outside! It is hand made by a Mr. Miyazaki in the basement of his house in Chiba, Japan. You can read about him in Japan Camera Hunter's website here. The lens is part of the first run of 180 in the batch.
The Perar Super Triplet is meant for the photographer who loves to play with and own specialty lenses. The colors are rich and gorgeous. It tends on the blueish side. And it also shoots a tad (like a hair) underexposed. I think it's around a half a stop. I like things a little contrasty myself.
The sharpness is not comparable to other 28mm lenses. In fact, if you enlarge the shot, you can see that it's fuzzy. But the lens is tiny so you can't compare it to a large 28mm lens. However, the details that this lens captures is amazing. It is like a little 'superman' – its vision is quite exquisite.
In the photo below, you'll also notice cyan drift in the corners. It's something that's easy to fix in post. But I did not do it here to show you what I'm talking about.
Below, I corrected the cyan drift in Light Room 3 using the Lens Vignetting correction slider. I had to push it to + 100% to get it all out.
BTW, this is the Disney Hall downtown Los Angeles by Frank Gehry.
I didn't notice any obvious edge distortion on the sides. I chose architecture to demonstrate this point. Okay, it's not fair with a building that already has curves. However, there is general distortion that's noticeable on wide shots. For instance, when you look at the officer walking towards the stainless steel signage in the middle of the picture, the sign leans toward him. But when you look at the concrete floor joint lines, they look pretty straight.
Here's a shot with straight lined buildings, but I shot it vertically which took out some of the distortion. I also took out the cyan drift in this shot.
I never had to worry about the aperture blades being on the outside. Although, I did pay attention to it while I was cleaning the lens. It's definitely not a 'desert' lens.
You'll notice dust particles in some of my shots. I didn't have a duster or air can with me. I only had a lens cloth. So I may not have done a good job of cleaning. But the lens does take a 19mm filter that can be screwed into the hood. This is the same filter that is used on the Leica Elmar lens. I would highly recommend a UV filter to keep the dust out.
Street photos with people and objects appears to be the lens' favorite subjects.
I also noticed the brights blow out a touch. But I can understand considering the tiny size of the lens.
But as first impressions go, I love this little lens. If I had a few more days with it, I think my shots would have been geared to its obvious strengths of color, slight under exposure and ease of use. It's definitely easier to get closer because the camera doesn't have an obtrusive lens sticking out.
Like I said, it is a specialty lens. It's actually quite a good 'street photography' lens. And the weight- pffsh, what weight? I would buy it when I stock up on lenses the next time the cash flows. You can read more about specifications at Japan Camera Hunter's site here.
I really appreciate Bellamy letting me play with this little lens. He tells me there are still a few left from the first batch. They run for about 55,000 Yen (approx. US $663.00 with today's exchange rate). There is also talk of doing a second run. If you're interested, Bellamy is the man. You can contact him at http://www.japancamerahunter.com
Thanks again Bellamy!
A quirky looking little lens, I've seen this on Bellamy's site, yours is the first review I've read. To be honest, it sounds like more trouble than it's worth, the looks are superb if you're into speciality lenses, and weight (or lack of) is a bonus too. But for me, the cyan thing and blueness would put me off buying it.March 28, 2012
Hey Bob,
It seems that the contrast is a peculiarity of the digital cameras. I have found that this lens really lends itself well to film, especially slide film.

Bellamy, any feedback on its use for B&W film?

Hi leicaliker thanks for the review – I ordered one yesterday and while I'm waiting for delivery reviews like this are the closest I can get! BTW I can't find a 19mm filter anywhere online, thought I'd order one in advance, any ideas?
There are no shortage of excellent conventional 28mm lenses for an M-mount, it seems to me the image quirks are an inevitable consequence of the 3 element construction (verses 8 or 9 in a full size 28mm Leica lens) and this is much less important than how the whole package works on an M camera – I'm hoping this tiny lens will mean I can take my M9 in my jacket pocket on the occasions when I because of size I have to leave it at home and use an X100….April 14, 2012

The MS Optical Perar 28mm f4 is not a Tessar type, it is a modified Cooke Triplet. It shares more similarities with the early 35mm Elmar f3.5 found on the 1925 Leica A, which was a modified triplet as well. The aperture on the original triplet was found between the 2nd and 3rd elements, while the Elmar had its between the first and second.August 22, 2013

The excellent reception from the staff at all times of the day and night
I would have appreciated a proposal from the hotel of a suite instead of the booked two double rooms. As I in the reservation mail explicit stated if possible only nned od one room for 4 pepeople. This would have been cheaper for us
Very quiet place, not far from Müritz-Nationalpark, good restaurant with national cuisine. Swimming pool is also an advantage of the hotel. In general - reasonable choice for that price. Breakfast could be better
Large and clean room. A bit outdated bathroom and the furniture is consumer quality but the beds are OK.

i appreciate this, my husband has no comprehension of the task either. today i was out shopping and i asked the clerk if she liked this picture frame as i am moving to new england it is had a rustic style. she said 'don't you like it here' and i said i do but my husband wants to live in my native country and i moved over but now he wants to do the same, and she replied, 'oh that sounds stressful'. i was thinking to myself, finally someone gets it. when i moved to europe my husband was on 'holiday' and unable to help me like now, but in that instance he was being selfish, and now he is just ignorant and naive. why is it people can be so ignorant to the complex task of an international upheaval?

Geographic inequity in a decentralized anti-poverty program : a case study of China
The central governments of many developing countries have chosen to decentralize their anti-poverty programs, in the expectation that local agents are better informed about local needs. The paper shows that this potential advantage of decentralized eligibility criteria can come at a large cost, to the extent that the induced geographic inequities undermine performance in reaching the income- poor nationally. These issues are studied empirically for (probably) the largest transfer-based poverty program in the world, namely China's Di Bao program,which aims to assure a minimum income through means-tested transfers. Poor municipalities are found to adopt systematically lower eligibility thresholds, reducing the program's ability to reach poor areas, and generating considerable horizontal inequity.

text: My car won't cool down. When it warms up it continues to get hot until I turn it off. The obvious reason would be that the thermostat is closed shut, but just a couple months ago I put a Stanton 180 degree t.stat and a 3 row radiator. My car has been perfect until yesterday when this happened. Is it possible for a thermostat to go out in such a short period of time? I was also wondering what the obvious signs of a bad water pump are. I dont hear an excess noises and theres no obvious leaks. Any ideas? Thanks.

Oh Hiroshima is a guitar driven post-rock quartet originally from Kristinehamn, Sweden. Through a thoroughly heartfelt sonic output, that manage to mix powerful energetic crescendos with tender melodies and atmospheric vocals, the band marks itself as one to follow.
What started out as a duo recording project that resulted in a couple of self-produced Eps, later transformed into a full-fledged post-rock act with the release of debut album 'Resistance Is Futile' in 2011. The band followed up with sophomore album 'In Silence We Yearn' in 2015; a record that saw the band pushing their artistic vision into a more unified frame while still maintaining an appealing diversity with each song. The shift mainly came out of the band being able to shape the songs together live in the rehearsal space, with all members contributing to the creative process.
With the release of In 'In Silence We Yearn' Oh Hiroshima have shown they are capable of upholding a continuous forward motion when it comes to songwriting, as well as overall sound crafting. With an even greater focus on creating a unifying experience that hold the songs together, while still maintaining the ever present suggestive and adventurous element that has always distinguished the band, the record takes Oh Hiroshimas earlier strengths to new levels. The melodies and sounds turn from gentleness to raw intensity through sweeping narrative sections, backed up by a driven rhythm section and soaring vocals; the latter taking a bigger role on this release than on previous recordings.
Altogether, the music on 'In Silence We Yearn' appear to circle around a primary theme or essence, while at the same time letting each song find its own way into the collection. The lyrics mirrors this ideal, centering around the longing for eschatological hope in the sociopolitical turbulence of contemporary society. As a whole, the albums blend of restrained stillness and expressive outpourings seem to create the perfect soundtrack for emotive reflection and introspective exploration. Here comes the CD edition.

The Blind Driver Challenge is the National Federation of the Blind's mission to develop non-visual interface technologies that will allow a blind person to safely and independently operate a car.
The challenge was issued in 2004. Virginia Tech's College of Engineering was the first, and remains the only, academic institution to take up that call.
The gist of the challenge is not developing an autonomous car that drives a blind person around, but about developing an interface that can convey real-time information about driving conditions to blind drivers so they can think through the driving process and safely maneuver the car.
Dennis Hong, an associate professor of mechanical engineering and director of Robotics and Mechanisms Laboratory, has led Virginia Tech's efforts in collaboration with Blacksburg-based TORC Technologies to develop two modified Ford Escape SUVs.
The new prototype interface made its public debut Jan. 29, 2011, preceding the Rolex 24 at Daytona International Speedway. The demonstration of a blind person driving independently on the inner track is historic, according to the National Federation of the Blind.
"With just a little help from technology, it is incredible what the blind can accomplish," Hong said.

Happy Monday! Did you have a good weekend? I can't thank you all enough for your encouraging words and support following my personal post last Friday. It means the world to me. It can be scary to open up about something like that, so feeling my message was received with love and kindness is a relief. Today I am excited to be collaborating with Katey of Chronicles of Frivolity, because this girl has STYLE. Katey and I met through our blogs (of course) and bonded over our shared love of Tex Mex and the word "smoke show". I am constantly checking her blog and popular instagram account for outfit and accessorizing ideas, and wishing I lived in Dallas so I could take her shopping with me. While I am most confident in making homes look pretty, Katey has a knack for styling herself and her friends, so we thought we'd team up and combine our skills! Katey put together a fab outfit with splashes of coral and leopard, and I give my take on how to bring those elements in to your home:
Shop Decor Items:
Palm Beach Coral Chandelier $1,050/Figure XXVII by Kate Long Stevenson $300/Leopard Velvet Pillow $72/Greek Key Trim Coral Pillow $60/Vintage Cantilever Leopard Chair $349/Coral Turkish Towel $39.50/West Elm Pillar Table Lamp in Marble $229/
This is one of my all-time favorite color/pattern combinations. I adore the leopard heels Katey is sporting, too! Go check out her blog to get the outfit details!

So we're watching this weekend the highlight show on NFL Network. And Rich Eisen is narrating clips from the Redskins-Lions game (which was played in windy Ford Field).
And Eisen mentions Redskins running back Shaun Alexander, the 2005 NFL MVP. And then Deion Sanders barks out his pet name for Alexander.
Deion calls Alexander the "Tiptoe Burglar."
It's funny. And it's arguably right on the money.
But Deion is the last guy who should be poking fun at anyone for being averse to physical contact.
In Deion's world, "run support" means possible procedures for controlling diarrhea.

October 26th, 2008 at 8:01 pm
Deion's run support was… 'you cant throw the ball against me so everyone else will concentrate on the run'… bitch.
I don't understand how somebody wouldn't want to put their name to this.
Fab5Philly says: Oct 26, 2008 8:14 PM
This story isn't worth mention, but Mike Singletary is awesome. That was a great rant during his press conference.
Randy Inman says: Oct 26, 2008 8:15 PM
Remember when Sanders and Bad Moon Rison were supposed to be mad at each other? It looked like a dance off when they got together on the field, rather than a fight.
empty13 says: Oct 26, 2008 8:15 PM
time for a visit from… carlton fisk.
Miraj says: Oct 26, 2008 8:21 PM
SNF is taking a bye week,
so watch the world series, GO RAYS!!!
BuckFutter says: Oct 26, 2008 8:26 PM
Just out of curiosity….what would happen if Alexander was running full steam ahead, and the only man he had to beat was Deion? Would they both run full steam ahead at each other, then make a 90 degree turn out of bounds?
mrowens11 says: Oct 26, 2008 8:27 PM
Yeah, the Deion and Bad Moon catfight was pretty funny, but I have to disagree with saying Deion didn't play run defense. Being bad at something and not doing something are two different things. Prime Time definitely holds the record for making jersey tackles/pulls/tugs/tears/attempts.
yankeemofo says: Oct 26, 2008 9:00 PM
I saw the Deion v. Rison game at the dome. We got there about 15 minutes late and it was already 14-0. Everyone was holding up signs that were handed out that said "Deion who?".
It was funny when he picked off a pass and ran it all the way back high-stepping all the way down the Atlanta sideline…then pulled his hammy and was out the rest of the game!
SCPantherfan says: Oct 26, 2008 9:22 PM
Shannon Sharpe has been calling him the Tiptoe Bandit for over a season on NFL Radio.
apanther says: Oct 26, 2008 9:34 PM
It's funny how short people's memories are. As far as avoiding contact, some of you are right on. But, to me, Deion was the best Shut Down or Cover corner that ever played the game. You don't have to like him, but don't forget his skills.
In his prime, you couldn't throw on him.
maalea says: Oct 26, 2008 9:42 PM
I almost pooped on myself when I heard Deion use that last week. It's only half ironic as he was never a bandit but he neven pressed a hole in his life.
jg284481 says: Oct 26, 2008 10:00 PM
You mean Deion's "Business Decision" (his words) to go out of bounds with the ball in his hands ?
Of course, how sad is it when the best highlight show has both Rich Eisen and Deion Sanders on it ?
Favre2012 says: Oct 26, 2008 10:13 PM
Deion was the greatest corner of all time, even not playing the run.
roscoeparrishfan1994 says: Oct 26, 2008 10:17 PM
I hav one thing too say…did anyone understand what the hell mike singleterry was saying in the postgame press conference??? It made no sense too me
playmaker says: Oct 26, 2008 10:58 PM
that was a hilarious nickname, carry on primetime, keep doing your thing, also shaun alexander's other nickname, should be "ken lay" cuz this guy stole more money than enron.
Vox Veritas says: Oct 26, 2008 11:08 PM
Want to know why a guy like Deion can make a "business decision" like that? Because he found all six ways to score a TD in his career. INT return, punt return, kickoff return, fumble return, reception, rush.
Volkof52 says: Oct 26, 2008 11:18 PM
The funny thing is that Deion was a pretty good tackler in BAL for the 2 years he played nickel. It doesn't make much sense to finally become a good tackler………when you're 37.
caramello1976 says: Oct 26, 2008 11:44 PM
Another infamous Deion quote when it came to tackling, "I don't get paid to tackle".. hilarious, but i agree, best shutdown corner ever. He literally took away half of the football field. Name one other corner who's done that?
DanSnyder says: Oct 27, 2008 12:31 AM
Hmm, If deion was playing in his prime now how many people do you think would shit on him for his lack of everything on defense except coverage? I personally like have good tackling, physical corners when it comes to the run game. Deion definately would drive certain d coordinators crazy if he worked for them.
JAXSUN says: Oct 27, 2008 1:14 AM
+1 for Florio

"Hmm, If deion was playing in his prime now how many people do you think would shit on him for his lack of everything on defense except coverage?"
Probably many in the media. Nobody that matters. The guy did log over 500 tackles in his career so he can obviously tackle.
Morgan says: Oct 27, 2008 10:22 AM
What blows my mind about Deion is that up until last year he was runner up only to Wayne Brady for "Black White dude of the Year". Then all of the sudden he starts talking really loud and is trying to throw a gangsta personna down. When I watch the Prime Time section on NFL network it makes me laugh harder and harder every time. Mike, i would love to see a write-up or a video section with the difference between the two years. Outrageous
biscuiteater says: Oct 27, 2008 11:37 AM
Why does Rich Eison scream like a woman when he summarizes the highlights?
He raises his voice like little girl who has been out in the cold too long.
What a wussy.
hulksmash says: Oct 27, 2008 1:53 PM
I loved how Mooch called him out after he described the rugged hard hitting game highlights and turned to Sanders to say something like "you know, oh wait, you were a cover corner, nevermind"
+10,000 Mooch!

China's diabetes epidemic is worse than previously estimated - much worse.
The most comprehensive nationwide survey for diabetes ever conducted in China shows 11.6 per cent of adults, or 114 million people, have the disease.
The finding, published on Tuesday in The Journal of the American Medical Association, adds 22 million diabetics to a 2007 estimate and means almost one in three diabetics across the globe is in China.
Chinese are developing the metabolic disease at a lower body mass index than Americans, researchers found, meaning changes in diet and physical activity stoked by rapid economic development are resulting in an earlier onset of the obesity-linked disease.
The epidemic will worsen, with 40 per cent of 18- to 29-year-olds on the verge of developing diabetes, which increases the risk of stroke, heart attack and kidney failure.
''Diabetes in China has become a catastrophe,'' said Paul Zimmet, honorary president of the International Diabetes Federation and director emeritus of the BakerIDI Heart and Diabetes Institute in Melbourne.
''The booming economy in China has brought with it a medical problem which could bankrupt the health system.''
The report is based on a survey of a nationally representative sample of 98,658 Chinese adults in 2010. A similar survey in 2007 pegged diabetes prevalence at 9.7 per cent, or 92.4 million adults.
The latest results mean diabetes is now more common in China than in the US, where 11.3 per cent of adults are diabetic.
The increase in diabetes prevalence in China, estimated at about 1 per cent in 1980, has been ''unparalleled globally'', Mr Zimmet said.
Authors led by Guang Ning, of the laboratory for endocrine and metabolic diseases at the National Health and Family Planning Commission, wrote: ''China is now among the countries with the highest diabetes prevalence in Asia and has the largest absolute disease burden of diabetes in the world.
''Poor nutrition in utero and early life combined with over-nutrition in later life may contribute to the accelerated epidemic.''
The booming economy in China has brought with it a medical problem which could bankrupt the health system.
Almost two-thirds of patients treated for diabetes didn't have adequate blood-sugar control, the authors found. For every person in China diagnosed with diabetes, at least two more will be unaware they have it.
''Rapid lifestyle changes in China have caused rising trends in obesity and that is now bringing out the abnormality of a people biologically more vulnerable to diabetes,'' said Juliana Chan, a professor of medicine and therapeutics at the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
China's rising prevalence of diabetes has helped fuel a 20 per cent-a-year growth in drug sales, stoking the need for medications from drug companies.
China's government is trying to fight the scourge by expanding basic medical coverage, buying medicines in bulk to lower costs and conducting a corruption inquiry into international drug-makers, including GlaxoSmithKline.

TEMPLE — A Temple man is in good condition following an early Wednesday shooting that left him hospitalized.
Cpl. Chris Wilcox of the Temple Police Department said police responded to a report of a man being shot about 12:20 a.m. in the 900 block of South 22nd Street. Officers arrived on scene to find a 24-year-old man with a gunshot wound to his upper body.
The gunman, who police said is believed to be a black man, fled the scene on foot in an unknown direction wearing a light-colored hooded sweatshirt. He remained at-large Wednesday afternoon, Wilcox said.
The victim was transported by ambulance to Scott & White Hospital.
By Wednesday afternoon, he was alert and talking to investigators about the incident, Wilcox said.
The investigation is ongoing but robbery was ruled out.
There was some indication the gunman and the victim "knew each other or were at least familiar with each other," Wilcox said.
Police did not release the victim's name.
This shooting was Temple's third major incident in less than three months.
Mazhar "Johnny" Aslam, 50, of Temple, was fatally shot April 2. Corey Thomas Williams, 20, of Houston, was indicted in connection with Aslam's murder.
His bail was set at $1,550,000.
A shooting April 25 killed 20-year-old LaCrae Hill.
John Nathan Nichols, 24, was arrested and charged in connection with her death.
He was in Bell County Jail on Wednesday in lieu of $750,000 bail.
Anyone with information about Wednesday's shooting is asked to call Temple police at 254-298-5500.

Vietnam veteran Jack Poitras had his mind made up. Government shutdown or not, he would visit the Vietnam memorial in Washington, D.C., on his Franklin County Honor Flight trip this past Wednesday, Oct. 2.
Many area veterans felt the same way. It is their right to visit the memorials built in their honor, and they agreed that they would "fight" for that honor, they said.
Poitras said he took a stance and told others, "I'm going to The Wall if I have to crawl there. I'm willing to go to jail for this. Nobody is big enough or strong enough to stop me."
He said that as a disabled veteran in ailing health, he wasn't sure if he would ever have another chance to visit the nation's capital.
"I may not live another year," he said.
During the trip, Poitras, of Barnhart, fulfilled his dream of playing taps at the Arlington National Cemetery and said he got the closure he had been seeking since he returned home from the Vietnam war 43 years ago. He also played at the Vietnam memorial.
"After I played I turned around and I saluted The Wall from one end to the other end," he said. "I saw names of people who served with me in Vietnam pop out of The Wall. That's how powerful it was for me."
He lost more than 200 members of his unit from 1968-70.
Poitras, who volunteers to play taps at military funerals at Jefferson Barracks, played taps a total of six times during his trip.
Honor Flight flies local World War II, Korean War and other veterans for a day trip to Washington, D.C. Veterans visit the various memorials, as well as Arlington National Cemetery.
Veterans said they weren't sure what to expect when they reached Washington, D.C.
With the government shutdown Oct. 1, federal parks were among the first thing slated to be closed.
"They tried to lock us out of the memorials," said Glennon Stelzer, a Korean War veteran from Augusta. "Us being fighters, we went around the fences (or barricades) and saw what we wanted to see anyway."
Stelzer said he didn't have much time to worry about the shutdown, as the airline tickets had already been bought.
Another veteran agreed.
"I'm 90. I'm too old to worry," said Richard Dillon, a World War II veteran from Washington.
"I thought I fought once, I can fight again," said Leonard Unnerstall, a Korean War veteran from Villa Ridge,
One positive aspect of the shutdown was that there were a lot of lawmakers to greet veterans at the memorial.
Dillon and others said they were honored to shake hands with several of the lawmakers.
He spent the day reiterating one point to journalists, who were in abundance and asking for comments throughout the day.
"I'm not ashamed to say it again. The congressmen and senators need to go out and get a dictionary and look up the word 'negotiate,' " he said. "Somebody should teach President Obama too, and I think we'd have a better government."
Don Schulte, a Korean War veteran from Dutzow, said that "other than the restrooms" everything was pretty much open to veterans.
He said that everyone should visit Washington, D.C., once in their lifetime.
Don Unnerstall, a Korean War veteran from Union, called the trip exciting.
He especially enjoyed visiting Arlington Cemetery, a sentiment many of the veterans also shared.
And while Don Unnerstall said he feels like he was only doing his job in the service, the saying "Land of the free, because of the brave" rings true.
Many also enjoyed watching the changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers.
Many of the veterans said they enjoyed getting letters from schoolchildren.
Leonard Unnerstall, who spent 13 months on the front lines during the Korean War, said that while he enjoyed the trip, he wished there would have been employees there to hand out pamphlets with the history of the memorials and that the veterans could have gotten closer to the White House.
Skip Boland, a Korean War veteran from Washington, said that it was a shame that others couldn't visit the memorial.
All veterans expressed thanks to the Franklin County Honor Flight organizers, those who greeted the veterans at the airport, the bus company, those who escorted the bus to and from the airport, children who wrote letters, lawmakers who took time out of their day to be at the memorials and those who were escorts on the trip.
"They did a first-class job," Boland said.
Organizers also enjoyed the flight.
"It was the best day of my life," said Jim Tayon, president of the Franklin County Honor Flight.

RE: How can solue the inequation system in mathematica
Check out the InequalityGraphics package (Addons>Standard
Packages>Graphics>InequalityGraphics in Help), and you can also try
InequalityInstance in the Developer package.
I think you'll have to figure it out yourself, with Mathematica's help.
For instance, in the problem you've listed below, you can fix x and
solve the corresponding equations for y, and figure out from that what
range of y values are feasible for that x. You can do the similar thing
fixing x and solving for y. You might even make it fairly automatic, as
InequalityGraphics has done.

This my question. How can I solve the Inequation system in mathematica.
I haven't seen any command for that

5*x^2 -y^2+5<0
If you know that , please point out to me

text: Project Description The Curtain Shop Building was dramatically restored to its classic beauty by removing the deterioration stucco that had concealed the building's rich facade of buff brick and terracotta for over half a century. A cracked stucco covering had concealed but protected the true beauty of the classical facade of buff brick and detailed terracotta at 541 Main Street, home to the Curtain Shop and General Store. The building has been transformed from an eyesore and hazard into a beautiful turn-of-the century jewel along Main Street featuring two floors of arched windows. Wherever possible, a sustainable approach was taken, in that original materials were kept and preserved rather than replicated. The original terracotta medallions indicating the name and date of the building ("The Arcade", "1897") are now visible, as well as pre-existing wood window frames on the third floor restored in place and re-glazed. A matching grant was provided by the New Rochelle BID and a low interest loan by CPC. The project was funded by the New York State Empire Development Corp. Main Streets Program and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.

text: San Francisco – Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has been hard hit by the selloff of Facebook shares.Facebook shares continued their losing streak for a fifth day on Thursday, sending the once feverishly sought-after name below $20 for the first time as investors scrambled to get out of the way of a potential share deluge in coming weeks, Reuters reported.According to cnet.com the share slump shaved some $4.7bn of Zuckerberg's share in Facebook, an almost 32% drop in the past few days of trading. His stake now sits at around $10.1bn.According to Reuters, Facebook has shed almost $50bn in value since its debut - more than the total valuation of Hewlett-Packard or Starbucks. The stock debuted at $38 and hit $45 a share on the first day of trading but has headed south since, pummelled by growing doubts about its lofty valuation, growth prospects and high-profile departures.The latest wave of selling started with social game maker Zynga spooking investors with its lousy earnings report last Wednesday, and continued with Facebook's own unspectacular earnings. News that the some big boys have dumped the stock hasn't helped.According to cnet.com the Wall Street Journal did some digging and found that Fidelity, one of Facebook's largest institutional investors, sold about 1.9 million shares across 21 of its mutual funds in June.Worst to come?Meanwhile, investors are struggling to understand the impact of the expiry on August 16 of a lockup period on insiders' sales. That's when the first restrictions barring employees and early investors from selling goes away, opening a spigot to about 1.88 billion additional shares for trading by year's end, according to Reuters.Reuters reported that lock-up expirations in internet stocks have a painful history for investors. Groupon's stock fell 9% on the first day that some company insiders were allowed to sell shares, while Zynga saw its shares tumble 8% on the day its initial insider lock-up expired.Facebook's first tier of restrictions goes away on August 16 when about 271 million shares will be available for trading, with another 243 million shares set to become available between mid-October and mid-November.But the big day, according to Reuters, is November 14, when Facebook employees' more than 1.2 billion shares will suddenly be available for trading.- Fin24 * Follow Fin24 on Facebook, Twitter and Google+.

The Reds ran up the score on the Braves in their 85th win of the season. Dan Driessen hit a big three run homerun in the eighth that broke a 5-5 tie and Tony Perez went yard with a two run shot in the ninth to give the Reds some extra insurance.
Jack Billingham was pulled in the second inning after giving up two runs and six hits. Pedro Borbon didn't fare much better, and he gave up three runs on four hits in five innings of work. Rawly Eastwick picked up his tenth win and pitched two scoreless innings to close out the game.

Mark Wahlberg and Christian Bale Premiere 'The Fighter' (PHOTOS)
Class acts Mark Wahlberg and Christian Bale charmed the red carpet at Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood on Monday for the premiere of their Mickey Ward-inspired boxing bio-pic The Fighter.
Lead actress Amy Adams' shoes, hair and lips matched the carpet, while at the same time Bale's jeans and beard were a far cry from his ultra-skinny on-screen look for the film.

Is Anywhere Stuck in a Malthusian Trap?
The key features of the Malthusian model are that (i) income determines population growth, with rising wages increasing survival rates and (ii) there is a vital factor of production (land) which is fixed, implying decreased returns to scale for all other factors. The equilibrium state in such a model is a population living on subsistence incomes. The country-level analysis in this paper suggests that (i) the link between income and population growth is (almost) everywhere broken and (ii) there is little evidence of declining returns to scale because of constraints imposed by land carrying capacity anywhere. Population dynamics are being driven by non-income factors in a manner that is reducing population growth rates everywhere. At the same time, output is increasing everywhere, in a manner inconsistent with significantly declining returns to scale based on land being a vital factor of production.

The man, who turned out to be Burkhart, was driving the dark blue minivan with British Columbia license plates.
It looks like mother and son also spent time in Vancouver, British Columbia, over the last three years.
Soon after this I dropped out of high school and moved to British Columbia, Canada.
The next day, the body of a 72-year-old woman was discovered half-eaten by grizzly bears in—again—British Columbia.
But now that British Columbia has become famous for floating feet, people are too curious not to check it out.
His father, at the time, was interested in certain timber operations on the coast of British Columbia.
The native tribes of British Columbia, too, have their myth.
In the western half of British Columbia, however, long periods of severe weather are rare.
He seemed a pretty good sort when I knew him in British Columbia.
Before the cocktail was consumed Bull had listened to a long story of British Columbia, and forests of incomparable extent.
