Free agent-to-be Jairus Byrd has yet another bargaining chip, as the Buffalo Bills safety earned second-team NFL All Pro honors.
Byrd – who was not named to the Pro Bowl – had 76 tackles on the season along with five interceptions and four forced fumbles. He was also an All Pro as a rookie in 2009, when he also made the Pro Bowl and All-Rookie Team. He got seven votes from the 50-membe panel, fourth out of all safeties in the NFL.
Byrd just finished up the final year of his four-year, $4.15 million contract. The Bills began negotiating with him during the season to keep him off the market when free agency opens March 1, as he will likely command a contract similar to that given to Ravens safety Ed Reed (seven years, $40.1 million).

Ted Simons: They're far from home. Many of them are based in hostile environments. They're America's military troops, and their daily sacrifices throughout the world can sometimes be taken for granted. But it doesn't go unnoticed by a Phoenix-based nonprofit that shows its appreciation on a regular basis. Joining me is Kathleen Lewis, she's the founder of packages from home. Good to have you here. Thanks for joining us. Let's get an overview of what packages for home is.
Kathleen Lewis: Packages from home, we send packages out to our military until Iraq and Afghanistan, we've sent to approximately 750,000 soldiers now. And we're very glad to do that.
Ted Simons: How did all this get started?
Kathleen Lewis: My son was being deployed out of Germany to Iraq in 2004, so I flew to Germany to kiss him goodbye, and I saw his guys and realized that they weren't going to have the same things my son would have. Came home, told my girlfriends we need to do something about this and that's what we did.
Ted Simons: And it's grown from there, again, how many packages?
Kathleen Lewis: We have reached 750,000 soldiers.
Ted Simons: My goodness. What's in these packages?
Kathleen Lewis: Oh, my gosh. Anything from hygiene, from baby wipes, that we all hear about to food, peanut butter and jelly, those are some of the things they miss from home. Very important. Flat-screen TVs, weight machines and pool tables. They ask for and it we give it to them.
Ted Simons: Are there things you encourage people to donate, or DOD encourages to be sent, or conversely, things you don't want to get involved with?
Kathleen Lewis: There are some things we don't involve, I think we can figure those things out. Some young men like certain things we're not going to send. But on our website packages from home.org, we have over 100 items that are actually listed, and they're listed according to how badly they're needed. So we have those listed, at packagesfromhome.org, and we have approximately 100 drop sites where you can take the items and drop them off and we'll get them and ship them off to the troops.
Ted Simons: If I donate something, how do I know, first, it's getting there, and secondly do I know, am I afforded the opportunity to know who's getting them?
Kathleen Lewis: You can actually sign your troop up online at packagesfromhome.org, and we actually each package has an individual's name on it. We don't send to any troop, that's not how it's done. It has an individual's name on it. They're signed through packages from home and anyone can do that. But you have to have a complete APO or FPO, which is an address, to do that.
Ted Simons: You don't necessarily give out names?
Kathleen Lewis: We do not. We're vetted by DOD and we are security oriented, and we do not give out names.
Ted Simons: Do you ever hear -- I suppose you do -- do you hear from the soldiers?
Kathleen Lewis: We hear from them. They'll drop in at our center, tell us what they've received, how wonderful it was. They give us letters, and then we actually -- that's our wallpaper. We put their letters on the wall. You can read our wall and find out exactly who we are.
Ted Simons: It looks like some happy soldiers there.
Kathleen Lewis: They are the best.
Ted Simons: You probably get some pretty nice letters.
Kathleen Lewis: We get some very heartwarming letters. Sometimes you'll read them and we'll be in tears.
Ted Simons: I bet. You're not the only group doing. This correct?
Kathleen Lewis: There are 300 grass-roots charities throughout the United States. Not everyone does the same thing we do. There's lots of different ways to serve your military. This just happens to be our way of serving them. And it's great.
Ted Simons: I ask because it would seem as if there were more than even a few of these groups sending packages, you could have a whole lot of packages inundating the soldiers.
Kathleen Lewis: You can have a whole lot of packages, but the thing is, those packages and the goods we send are used and used up very, very quickly. So the things we send are always in need, there's nothing left over, and it's wonderful.
Ted Simons: OK. I want to make a donation. How do I go about doing this?
Kathleen Lewis: You can go online at packagesfromhome.org, make a donation there, right online, you can go to one of our drop sites and leave some of the goods that we've asked for. Very similar.
Ted Simons: There are drop sites. It's not just money only.
Kathleen Lewis: We love money, because we have to pay for all the postage and we send a thousand boxes a month. So it's very expensive. But, no, you can actually go to the drop sites and we will be glad to take those items.
Ted Simons: And packagesfromhome.org, which we've shown a couple times during the interview, that is where to go for more information on this. Before you go, I know you're working with another nonprofit on a fund-raiser for an Iraqi boy. Talk to us about that.
Kathleen Lewis: Little Hussein was literally blown up, and the United States military stepped in to help this young man and he has had some horrific wounds. So once -- he was here, he had some surgery, we've been able to bring him back for further surgery with "heal the children". And so we have kind of stepped in and facilitated getting some of his items that he need back at the request of the United States military.
Ted Simons: OK. Talk to us about this fund-raiser, where it is, when it is, and what it's involved.
Kathleen Lewis: Actually I believe the fund-raiser you're talking about is over at Toby Keith's on Memorial Day weekend, and actually it is a fund-raiser for packages from home. And what we're took there is trying to raise money to support our habit on our postage.
Ted Simons: We talked about what got you started on this and how it's grown. When you started this, did you have any idea that this -- you would be here years later?
Kathleen Lewis: I had no idea. No idea whatsoever. But this task was placed in front of me, and I picked it up and a lot of people have come with me on it. We have wonderful volunteers, and of course, my goodness, how could you not want to, but help your military? They're the best America has to offer. They're just fabulous. And they make it easy to love them.
Ted Simons: Is there something that though you wish -- first, two things. Is there -- are there challenges we might not be aware of that you just have to fight through all the time, A, and B, are there things you really want out in in terms of getting this job done easier?
Kathleen Lewis: Well, we always can use more volunteers, of course. And fund-raising ideas, that's a big thing, because it does cost us money to ship these packages. It's not free. And it's not easy. So those are big things. But I will say this is a labor of love. To do something for your country, for those young men and women who are putting their lives on the line for us so that we may be here today. That's wonderful. That is just great. And so, yes, it is hard at times, but it's well worth the effort.
Ted Simons: You're doing great work. Thank you so much for joining us.
Kathleen Lewis: Thank you.

BASILDON Hospital is the first of 14 in the country to be taken out of special measures.
Staff are celebrating after the Care Quality Commission rated the hospital "good" – prompting health regulator Monitor to lift a string of sanctions.
Its maternity unit is also the first in the country to be rated "outstanding" by the health watchdog.
Thurrock MP Jackie Doyle- Price said: "I would like to congratulate all the staff for the real efforts they have made to bring the hospital trust out of special measures.
It says so much about them that they have worked hard to bring about this improvement.
"What has happened is a profound cultural change within that trust. It has been achieved by leadership."
Hospital trust chief executive Clare Panniker said the announcement marked the "start of a new exciting chapter"
for the hospital, which has previously been plagued with controversy.
She added: "This is real a turning point. We can draw a line under the last four years and really start to move forward without the shackles of special measures.
"It marks the end of an era and the start of a new exciting chapter for our trust when we can once more be confident – as the regulators now are – in the quality of our care.
Basildon was one of 14 failing hospitals to be put into special measures by Monitor last July due to concerns about standards of care and high death rates.
Troubleshooter Adam Cayley, from Monitor, was drafted in as a dedicated improvement director to help turn the hospital around.
The trust has since made a number of changes, including hiring more than 200 doctors and nurses. The hospital is due to continue working closely with London's Royal Free Hospital, which it was partnered with during the special measures process.
Out of the 16 hospitals in the country to have been inspected under the revamped Care Quality Commission system, Basildon is the sixth to be rated "good" overall.
The others required improvement.
Basildon is the first of the 14 special measures

I don't want to use foreign material like silicon or gortex, but rib graft rhinoplasty is so much more expensive. I'm Asian, so I don't think a really tall nose would look natural on me anyway.. Thank you all for your help!
Is It Possible to Use Septal Cartilage for the Nose Bridge/dorsal Augmentation?
Doctor Answers 13
Asian Rhinoplasty
If you are only unhappy with the bridge of your nose, cannot get glasses to fit, ect, there are 2 options.
1) Nonsurgical rhinoplasty. In the office injectable fillers like Juvederm or Radiesse can be placed along the bridge of your nose to add height. There is no real downtime, it is economical, and the fillers last about a +/- year.
2) Limited rhinoplasty: If you are only concerned with the bridge of your nose a limited rhinoplasty can be performed to place a graft to increase the height of the nasal bridge.
Cartilage, silicone and gortex all have the same longevity in that they are all considered permanent. All three grafts are frequently used to augment the bridge of the nose. If you ask 10 different surgeons you will get 10 different opinions on which material is the absolute best choice and why you should avoid the other two.
I believe them all to be acceptable options that can lead to good results. Silicone implants come presized and Gortex needs to be sculpted by the surgeon. Both are synthetic and have the potential for infection. That being said, hip replacements, heart valves, and hundreds of other implants are safely and reliably used throughout the body.
Cartilage has less risk of infection, needs to be expertly sculpted, and his the risk of warping over time. Because there is no clear best option all three grafts are routinely used and your surgeon will likely have a preference for one.
Hope this helps

Cartilage grafting in rhinoplasty
Septal cartilage less forgiving and less abundant (especially in Asian nose) than diced cartilage and fascia graft, composed of septal and/or ear cartilage. You may need tip graft as well, and restricting yourself to septum as the only source limits the amount of correction that can be achieved.

Septal cartilage for nasal bridge augmentation
It is possible to use nasal septal cartilage for nose and dorsal augmentation in an Asian rhinoplasty. However, there needs to be enough cartilage is needed in the nose to perform the augmentation. Frequently in an Asian nose the septum is quite thin and a double or triple stack of the patient's own cartilage is needed to create enough augmentation. This is performed under general anesthesia as an outpatient procedure. It is important to perform computer imaging and have a frank discussion with the surgeon to make sure that the goals can be accomplished.

Nasal Dorsum Augmentation
Dear Kim,
Septal cartilage is a great choice given the fact that enough cartilage could be harvested from that site to achieve your desired augmentation.
Without photos and physical examination, it is hard to be definitive about a particular site from where a surgeon can harvest the autologous material for a cartilage graft; ear and rib cartilages are other options as you may already know.
That said, I recommend that you seek a consultation with a board certified surgeon of extensive experience in rhinoplasty who will guide you to make a well informed decision.
Being an Asian patient, your facial features are to be taken into consideration because if you are looking for conservative changes then a delicate surgical approach is to be adopted.
Finally, if you desire permanent results I would advise you to disregard the option of resorting to dermal fillers to achieve your goal.
I hope this helps.
Thank you for your inquiry and the best of wishes to you.

Carriage graft
I agree with you. Septal cartilage grafts are ideal to augment the bridge of the nose. The cartilage is easily harvested at the time of surgery. The piece of cartilage may not be as large as a silicone implant, but it may be an option worth exploring. Adorsal cartilage graft using septal cartilage is a standard and routine plastic surgical procedure and works well if you are the right candidate.

Non-surgical rhinoplasty is great for augmenting the nasal dorsum.
Septal cartilage may definitely be used for augmenting the nasal bridge. If there is not enough septal cartilage to raise the bridge to the desired height, cartilage from the ear may be safely combined for dorsal augmentation.
Personally, I prefer non-surgical rhinoplasty for augmenting the nasal bridge. I use Restylane, Perlane, Radiesse, or Artefill to augment the nasal bridge. This method has the following benefits:
- Contouring may be done in a very smooth and detailed manner.
- The patient can give the doctor feed back on the results.
- The results are immediate
- The risks are a lot less than with a surgical procedure
I find that with Restylane and Radiesse, the results last longer each time and there is some build up of the patients own collagen.
I hope this was helpful, good luck in your search for information!

Septal Cartilage to Augment Nasal Bridge
For 35 years septal and ear cartilage have been my first choice to augment the nasal bridge. Rib cartilage is much more difficult to harvest. I feel it is always better to use the patient's own tissue whenever possible rather than foreign material.
Ribs etc.
Rib grafts leave scars but can work very well in rhinoplasty. Silastic dorsal grafts also work well but can shift or become infected. Auricular grafts work well but tend to disappear over time. There are other alloplastic grafts available but each material has pros & cons. Consult your favorite Cosmetic Surgeon for a further consultation!
I am not sure why it should be that much more expensive since you do not have to pay for the price of implants. You have another options available to you which is ear cartilage from one or both ears.
My response to your question/post does not represent formal medical advice or constitute a doctor patient relationship. You need to consult with i.e. personally see a board certified plastic surgeon in order to receive a formal evaluation and develop a doctor patient relationship.
Is It Possible to Use Septal Cartilage for the Nose Bridge/dorsal Augmentation?
I have performed Rhinoplasty for over 25 years and yes, you can use septal cartilage for dorsal augmentation. The issues is how long of a septal cartilage segment can be obtained from the nasal septum. The septum is made up of cartilage and bone to varying degrees and IMHO, it's unusual to be able to get a long enough segment of septal cartilage to augment the entire nasal bridge during Rhinoplasty. It's best to have a backup plan for the next best material for dorsal augmentation which is a straight, silastic dorsal implant.

Citation: Vander Meer, R.K., Preston, C.A. 2004. Multiple functions of the fire ant, Solenopsis invicta, Alarm Pheromone. Chemical Ecology and Phytochemistry in Forest Ecosystems. 2004. p. 38. Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: As with most social insects, the red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invicta, utilizes complex chemical signals to regulate the activities of the colony. Several of these pheromones, including the trail pheromone and queen recognition pheromones, have been identified. However, the alarm pheromone has proven to be more elusive. Several functions of the alarm pheromone have been suggested for S. invicta, from signaling the presence of a threat, to inducing worker activity during mating flights, and attracting eavesdropping parasitoids. Ant alarm pheromones have been identified from several glandular sources, e.g. Dufour's, mandibular, and anal glands. Behavioral studies point to the mandibular gland as the source S. invicta's alarm pheromone. In S. invicta, the mandibular gland consists of only a few cells. These along with the ephemeral nature of the active components have complicated the identification of this pheromone. We employed solid phase micro extraction (SPME) and purge and trap techniques to collect and analyze headspace contents above workers exhibiting alarmed behavior. We identified a tri-substituted pyrazine as a component of the fire ant alarm pheromone. The lowest significant alarm response to the pyrazine was at a headspace concentration of 0.03 pg/'L. This pyrazine has now been isolated from the mandibular glands of workers, as well as female and male sexuals, who use the alarm pheromone to initiate mating flights. Additionally the alarm pheromone serves as a kairomone ' attracting phorid fly parasites.

**4x5 Adventures in Film**--ON HOLD (I will be done with Hallmark soon and thus will not have access to a 4x5 camera)
This is a nude series I'm working on where I experiment with portraiture using a large format 4x5 view camera. This is one of those "old" looking cameras that are stationary and don't really move. As of right now anyone interested in this project, shoots are TF*.
I have references on hand and will deliver prints/digital files in a timely fashion.
I shoot quite a variety and keep my options open. There isn't a shoot I won't consider.
ESCORTS: Are fine with me as long as their quiet, bring something non-distracting for them to do, are helpful, etc. If an escort is disruptive they will be asked to wait somewhere else where they will not disrupt our shoot. Be aware that this will still be in ear shot of where we are shooting.
I will not shoot any set for any suicide girl (this only applies to sets specifically for suicide girls). Please don't even ask about it. It does not have to do with the nature of the shoots, it has EVERYTHING to do with the nature of the company. If you have a single girl site, I'd be willing to shoot you for that.
Again, for my regular portraiture please see www.modelmayhem.com/afhphotography

scanf, make sure that it worked. Not doing so is often a recipe for disaster, because you can easily have a garbage value. scanf returns a value which indicates how many values were successfully read - make use of this.
#define statement for pi, prefer to use a constant double instead. Depending on which implementation you have, M_PI might already have a value in the math header. Rather annoyingly IMO, this is not standard, so it might be best to stick with you own const assignment.

BATS IPO: An Inauspicious Start
BATS Global Markets is having an IPO for the ages, and not in a good way.
The alternative exchange specializes in stock trading, and has suffered serious issues in launching its own shares for the first time.
So much so, that the stock is no longer trading, after less than a minute in the public sphere.
Currently, the stock is halted at $15.25, and even that is down 4.7% from its IPO pricing of $16. The company says the stock is halted until further notice.

By Kelly Whiteside, USA TODAY
When Reggie Bush announced Tuesday that he would forfeit his 2005 Heisman Trophy, football fans were all atwitter. Should the Heisman be handed to former Texas quarterback Vince Young, who finished second in voting, or be left vacant?
Young weighed in with this post on his Twitter account: "Just heard about Reggies Heisman. Reg will continue to be the 2005 Award recipient and I will continue to be honored to have been in the 2005 Heisman campaign with such a talented athlete."
The eight-member Heisman Trophy Trust met in a regularly scheduled meeting Tuesday and then said in a statement from President William J. Dockery that it would comment "in due course." This is the first time in the award's 75-year history a player has returned the trophy.
"It was a very noble thing for Reggie to do," Southern California athletics director Pat Haden said. USC has returned its copy of Bush's Heisman. "In my opinion, he made the right decision. … Reggie was a fantastic football player, one of the most exciting players ever. But by his own admission today, he made some mistakes."
CAMPUS RIVALRY: Bush says he will return Heisman Trophy
NO WINNER: USA TODAY voters feel award should be vacant
USC was hit with major sanctions by the NCAA after it determined Bush received improper benefits. The NCAA ruled that Bush was ineligible for the 2005 season; players must be in compliance with NCAA rules to be eligible for the trophy.
In a statement released by the New Orleans Saints, Bush called the decision "heartbreaking." He added, "In no way should the storm around these allegations reflect in any way on the dignity of this award. … Nor should it distract from outstanding performances and hard-earned achievements either in the past, present or future."
Eric Crouch, the 2001 winner from Nebraska, told the Associated Press, "It's a sad day."
Other Heisman winners voiced their support for Bush,
"It doesn't matter if he gives it back. Everyone still knows Reggie Bush was the best player that year. Look at the runs. He was clearly the best player," said Johnny Rodgers, 1972 Heisman winner from Nebraska.
Pete Carroll, who coached Bush at USC before leaving for the NFL's Seattle Seahawks last December, said much could be learned from Bush's plight.
"It is my hope that this situation serves as a teachable moment to all involved, especially for the young athletes and university and high school administrators of tomorrow," Carroll said in a statement.
The decision by Bush brings an end to the four-year speculation about the award that started when allegations first surfaced. He posted on his Twitter account that he was focused now on his career with the Saints.
"Now that this is behind me I look forward to the future and winning more awards and championships here in New Orleans! Who Dat!"
But the loss of the Heisman will have significant ramifications on his marketability in the future, according San Diego State University sports business MBA co-founder, Dr. George Belch.
"The Heisman Trophy is one of the biggest and most publicized awards in all of sport and so losing it, even if he does so voluntarily, is quite a blow to the image of an athlete," Belch said.?"He may have scored a few PR points by volunteering to give it back but that really does not change things very much. I doubt that he will be at the top of any major company's endorser list and given the life span of running backs in the NFL, it is unlikely he will be around long enough to repair his image."

As AVB, Ancelotti and Di Matteo discovered, Chelsea make a drama out of a crisis... and even Jose may not survive a blank season
The absence of scrutiny for Manchester United under David Moyes has surprised Andre Villas-Boas.
'For the champions of England to be sitting in their position, there has not been a lot of drama,' he said. 'I was involved in another club before and there was more drama surrounding my results than Manchester United's.'
Indeed there was. Villas-Boas did not elaborate on the reasons but might believe he was the victim of mild prejudice. Moyes is an old-school British manager and paid his dues at Preston North End and Everton. Villas-Boas, by contrast, may feel he was seen as a young interloper at Chelsea, foreign, over-promoted and the beneficiary of an owner's whim. He dared to take on the old guard in the dressing room, too, and got a few powerful backs up. Even so, it wasn't the reason for the drama.
VIDEO Scroll down to watch Jose Mourinho: Schalke are difficult opponents for Chelsea
Down on his luck: Andre Villas-Boas implied his reign at Chelsea came under closer scrutiny than David Moyes' at Manchester United
Sitting pretty: David Moyes, pictured left with Phil Neville during the 0-0 draw in San Sebastian, will be given time at Manchester United
Villas-Boas certainly did not suffer discrimination because, after Chelsea, he quite quickly got another job in English football, with Tottenham Hotspur. If Moyes makes a mess of Manchester United, it is fair to assume he won't be offered the helm at any other Champions League contender in a hurry.
So, if we rule out narrow-mindedness as the reason for the harsh analysis of Villas-Boas initially, what is left? It was his boss. Roman Abramovich directs the drama at Stamford Bridge, he creates the headlines. He has sold out AVB and plenty of others — but this season brings the chance to write a new narrative.
Moyes has escaped the most negative scrutiny this season because, frankly, there would be no point to it. Speculation has to go somewhere for it to be valid. It is worthless deliberating on the identity of the next Prime Minister the day after a General Election, for instance, because the winner is likely to be five years away from any public reckoning. Equally, Moyes sidestepped the worst of it because he signed a six-year contract and Manchester United are not a sacking club. Even if he fails to make the top four he will be given next season and probably one more to get it right.
Villas-Boas, meanwhile, was manager of Chelsea, a club that sacked one manager — Roberto Di Matteo — 20 games after winning the Champions League. There will always be drama around Chelsea until Abramovich changes his approach. This season is all about him, not his latest put-upon manager.
Pressure to perform: Carlo Ancelotti (left) was sacked after his second season at Chelsea, despite winning the Double in his first. Meanwhile, interim boss Roberto Di Matteo won the Champions League and was given the boot six months later
Revolving door policy: Roman Abramovich has had a pragmatic approach to appointing managers at Chelsea
Jose Mourinho may be a mighty name in
world football but at Stamford Bridge he is just another coach. We've
seen them come, we've seen them go. They win the league, or the
Champions League, or they get fired. Sometimes they win and quickly
leave anyway. And that explains the drama.
it didn't go well for Villas-Boas it was a plain fact that he was under
pressure; just as, if Moyes stumbles, it is known United will keep the
Mourinho lost at
Newcastle United on Saturday, which may be a blip or an early sign that
Chelsea will come up short. The manager insists this is now a long-term
project with objectives beyond the immediacy of another trophy and he
has time to build a title-winning team, but we shall see.
observers require fresh evidence because little in Chelsea's history
under Abramovich indicates Mourinho, or any manager, can survive a blank
The irony is
that, if Abramovich still harbours fantasies of attracting Pep
Guardiola, only by giving his nemesis Mourinho room to fail can he prove
that Chelsea offer more than the thrill of a whirlwind romance. It is
up to the owner to prove the sceptics wrong in the event of a slow start
or a near miss.
Defeat is all about how a team react, but at Chelsea it is about the owner, too. As Villas-Boas discovered, Chelsea's specialty has been making a drama out of a crisis: Mourinho says no longer, but his employment status at the end of the season should reveal the truth.
Chastening defeat: Jose Mourinho can only watch as Chelsea slumped to an unexpected 2-0 defeat on Tyneside
In focus: Will Pep Guardiola, who has masterminded a sensational start to his tenure at Bayern Munich, eventually be wooed by Chelsea?
Nice lunch ... shame about those results, Sven!
'A journey to the heart of two great footballing cultures' is how the publishers described The Italian Job, the 2007 book by Gianluca Vialli and Gabriele Marcotti. In an attempt to understand the differences between the game as played in England and Italy, the pair spoke to an impressive variety of sources. Sir Alex Ferguson, Arsene Wenger, Fabio Capello and Jose Mourinho contributed. As did Sven Goran Eriksson.
Ferguson talked engagingly for hours, Marcotti recalled. Wenger gave up an entire afternoon and then chased the authors across the car park as they were leaving to offer additional insight.
A chapter could have been filled just with Mourinho's analysis and admiration of Didier Drogba. And then there was Sven. He was polite, charming, helpful, all the attributes that make him such a popular individual, but became most animated only when talking of football's rewards, not its essence. He would grow very excited if recommending or exchanging the names of good restaurants, hotels or holiday destinations; then the subject would return to the game and he would become quieter, less engaged.

- Manchester United-bound Romelu Lukaku has scored 16 goals in 57 games against the top six... this is what £75m gets you 09/07/17
His lurid memoirs, now released, would be comical had English football not spent close to £5million annually facilitating his playboy lifestyle, at the expense of worthwhile development. Eriksson only looks impressive because, immediately after his tenure, Steve McClaren failed to take England to the 2008 European Championship finals.
Yet as Fabio Capello and Roy Hodgson have proved subsequently, McClaren was an exception, not the rule.
Only now, with the publication of Eriksson's autobiography, are many realising why he preferred to play tour guide rather than football manager. It is full of examples of Eriksson's disconnection. The national coach has so little time with his players that he can only use them in their club positions, he insists. This will have come as a surprise to England squad members under Terry Venables or Glenn Hoddle who were required to play wide midfield or wing back, full back or wide centre half, as occasion demanded. Marcel Desailly, Gilberto Silva, Philipp Lahm, even Zinedine Zidane and Lionel Messi, have also played in roles that were at odds with their club berth.
The adaptability of the performer is clearly important, but so too is the willingness of the manager to coach.
When the difficulties of pairing Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard first became apparent it was suggested that Eriksson should make one the designated holding midfield player, and leave the other the freedom to push forward.
His response was typical. 'They can both play holding midfield,' he said, 'but it is a question in their heads. Do they like to do it? Are they prepared to do it? We have never talked about it.'
A pity they didn't offer to resolve it over lunch, really. The one thing we can be certain of is that Sven would have known somewhere nice.
And while we're at it
In heat of battle, Fer fires blanks
If Leroy Fer is as keen on winning football matches as he suggests, Saturday would be a good time to start.
Chris Hughton, his manager at Norwich, probably has one lousy performance left in him. If it comes against West Ham United this weekend, he may well be gone. Norwich were fined £20,000 by the Football Association for failing to control their players during a match with Cardiff City on October 26. The charge relates directly to the aftermath of an incident involving Fer.
When Norwich team-mate Alex Tettey went down injured in the fourth minute of added time, Cardiff goalkeeper David Marshall sent the ball into touch so he could receive treatment. The plan was for Norwich to return it to their opponents as repayment for good sportsmanship, except Fer chose to kick the ball directly into the unguarded net instead.
Exchange of views: Leroy Fer (left) and Jordon Mutch discuss the disallowed goal before Nathan Redmond joins the discussion (right)
His action caused a small riot and would have won the game for Norwich had referee Mike Jones not intervened and concocted a bogus excuse to erase the goal. He put his own position in jeopardy by doing so.
Fer then went on television and played the uber-professional. Yes, it was deliberate, he announced. He was trying to win the game. In Europe, the match simply continues once the player has been treated. He saw nothing wrong in his actions. Fer spoke with conceit, as if his instincts were somehow superior to those of others. He was a winner, he seemed to say. He made no apologies for that.
Yet, in similar circumstances, play does not progress this way on the continent. Only if a team kick the ball out to allow their own player to be treated is it not returned.
Still, with Norwich in such dire straits, it must be good to know they have an at-all-costs winner like Fer on their side. So how many league goals has he scored with his ferocious approach this season, when all 21 players have been at it? None.
Putting the boot in: Fer clashes with Manchester City's David Silva at the Etihad
Shaken and stirred: Yaya Toure (centre) greets Chris Hughton after Manchester City's dismantled Norwich
He doesn't seem to be creating too much, either, as the three strikers Norwich signed for £13.5m — Ricky van Wolfswinkel, Gary Hooper and Johan Elmander — have managed just six shots on target between them and scored once. And last week, Manchester City put seven past Norwich unopposed. If Fer had fancied demonstrating that well-honed determination to win, this would surely have been the time. Just one at the City end to stop the rot? Apparently not.
So far, Fer has proved he has a dead eye for goal only when the opposition has stopped and the goalkeeper has wandered off towards the corner flag. He has the kind of competitive streak that every manager desires — but only if he is looking for a pay-off.
No 1: Roy Hodgson has shown unfailing faith in Joe Hart
It has been suggested that Roy Hodgson may start Joe Hart again in the friendly matches against Chile and Germany, to show he has faith in him.
This would be unnecessary. Hodgson's loyalty is shown in the number of times he has picked Hart during his tenure as England manager: every competitive game, plus all friendlies bar two. He has nothing to prove. Even if Hart stays second choice at Manchester City, he is likely to remain Hodgson's No 1.
Hart must, however, have a confident and experienced deputy in case of injury or further misfortune. The essentiality of grooming an alternative is more pressing than any need to give Hodgson's chosen one another cuddle.
In 1991, England reached the final of Rugby's World Cup at Twickenham. They beat France convincingly in Paris in the quarter-finals and Scotland at Murrayfield in the last four.
They did not play the most exciting game, but it got the job done. And Australia's outspoken David Campese kept chipping away.
'I wouldn't play for England even if you paid me,' he said, after the Scotland win. 'Playing that sort of boring stuff is a good way to destroy the image of the game. They are all so scared of losing, they won't try anything.'
On top of the world: Australia celebrate victory at Twickenham
Mind games: David Campese lifts the Webb-Ellis trophy
Campese's relentless criticism appeared to get through. Coach Geoff Cooke abandoned the forward-dominated game plan for the final and implemented a more expansive style.
Australia won 12-6. 'If England had actually played 10-man rugby, they probably would've beaten us,' Campese mocked in the aftermath.
Over time, the supposed influence of Campese's taunts has grown with retelling.
Certainly, Wallabies coach Bob Dwyer is sceptical that Campese alone got under England's skin.
He believes Australia's 40-15 victory over England in Sydney the previous summer changed Cooke's tactical plan more than any chirping by the critics.
The fact remains, though, that many of Australia's sportsmen are keen on inflicting mental disintegration — and Shane Warne was part of a cricket team that thrived on it.
Fearsome opponent: Shane Warne matched world-class ability with a razor-sharp wit
Playing it with a straight bat: Alastair Cook refused to be drawn on Warne's criticisms
So his criticism of Alastair Cook, England's captain, as cautious and unimaginative should be taken with a pinch of salt. Warne knows a tendency to conservatism is a seam to be picked at this winter, and his greatest victory would be persuading Cook and England to take unnecessary risks in the forthcoming Ashes series.
For if they keep their heads and play to their strengths, there is only one winner. Again.

YIMBY - Yes in My Backyard aims to build a movement across Long Island supporting the development of new affordable housing. YIMBY supports the idea that all communities on Long Island must provide a diversity of housing options for their residents and provide affordable housing.
Affordable housing is a problem for most Long Islanders:
Young people cannot find a decent rental apartment so they are living with their parents or in basements.
Seniors can't afford to live in their homes due to the high property taxes. They want to stay on Long Island where their friends and families live, yet they cannot find an affordable condo or rental unit.
Working class families are struggling to find housing. There are families who make $60,000 who are homeless due to the high cost of living. In order to purchase a home on Long Island, a family income must exceed $100,000.
Affordable housing is being vetoed by Town Supervisors and community members:
One Long Island Town Supervisor said, "We don't need affordable housing, we don't have any of those people who need it."
Towns control zoning. Throughout Long Island, town supervisors and council people are scared to propose and support affordable housing. This is why we created YIMBY.
YIMBY organizes people within the community to support affordable housing. We educate people and organizations to contact their town officials and to show them that there is a real constituency in their communities that support affordable housing. We say YIMBY. Yes In My Backyard. Join Us.

PESHAWAR - Expressing grave concern over the rapidly deteriorating law and order situation, bomb blasts, target killings and extortion, the legislators both from treasury and opposition benches in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly Monday unanimously asked the federal government to coordinate with provincial government to tackle the situation. They also asked the federal government to send Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan to give them an in camera briefing upon the current situation and take practical steps to overcome the existing law and order issue. The legislators unanimously supported the jointly drafted resolution, when the deputy speaker Imtiaz Shahid put it for voice vote for which he had already relaxed relevant rules with the consent of the House.Pakistan People's Party (PPP)'s legislator Nighat Orakzai moved the resolution carrying signatures of Minister for Information Shah Farman, Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Habibur Rehman, Awami Jamhori Ittehad (AJI) Sharam Khan Tarakai, Qaumi Watan Party (QWP) Sikandar Sherpao, Awami National Party (ANP) Jaffar Shah, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N)'s Aurangzeb Nalota and others.The representatives of all the political parties observed that law and order situation across the province was rapidly getting deteriorated as kidnapping for ransom had turned into a profitable business, while bomb blasts and target killings were also order of the day. The movers recalled that all the political forces in last all parties' conference (APC) held at Islamabad had mandated the federal government to sort out an amicable solution to the persisting crisis and restore durable peace in the country. They further said the federal interior minister should himself visit Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and give an in camera briefing to the legislators on the prevailing situation.The House admitted the adjournment motion of former senior minister Sikandar Sherpao for discussion regarding increasing price hike and lack of government's interest. He said the prices of daily commodities' were increasing making the lives of common people miserable. Instead of fulfilling its responsibilities, he said, the provincial government was shifting its responsibilities on the federal government while the same was the case with the centre. Comparing reports of the State Bank of Pakistan, he said the inflation ratio in Peshawar had been indicated 14.1 percent while it was 9.9 percent in Lahore, 8.05 in Karachi and 9.7 in Quetta, adding, it should have been the same in every provincial metropolis of the country if it was due to the federal government's policies. There was no check on price control and the same food items were being sold at different prices.This news was published in The Nation newspaper. Read complete newspaper of 14-Jan-2014 here.

Songwriters say stars, songs, surprises mark show's return
Jennifer Hudson, as Broadway veteran Veronica Moore, appears in tonight's season-two premiere of "SMASH" on NBC.
Nanuet native Scott Wittman and Marc Shaiman know that fans of NBC's "SMASH" have endured a long wait since last season. So the writers of "Hairspray," who wrote the original songs for "SMASH," begin the singing soap opera's sophomore season by acknowledging the fact that it has been nearly nine months since a new episode aired.
When season 2 kicks off tonight with a two-hour double episode (NBC, 9 p.m.), it begins with star Karen Cartwright (Katharine McPhee) singing:
"I know I've kept you've waiting;
I know I've made you mad…"
"We're kind of speaking, as the show, to the audience," Shaiman says.
The lyric continues:
"But this time we spent creating
Was the best time I ever had."
"We've had a great time writing this material," says Wittman. "To actually get the opportunity to write a Broadway-style musical in front of the public for two years has been quite an experience."
"SMASH" tells the story of "Bombshell," a Broadway-bound musical based on the life of Marilyn Monroe. The first season saw the musical take shape and head to Boston for its out-of-town tryout, where all hell broke loose. The season ended — way back on May 14 — with Karen Cartwright (Katharine McPhee) stepping in for star Rebecca Duvall (Uma Thurman), when Duvall had an allergic reaction to nuts that were slipped into her smoothie. The show's writers, composer Tom Levitt (Christian Borle) and lyricist and book writer Julia Houston (Debra Messing) scribbled a song furiously and handed it to the star with minutes to spare before the curtains part. "We do that all the time," quips Wittman from the Brooklyn soundstage where filming of season 2 is well under way.
A constellation of new celebrities joins the starry "SMASH" cast for the second season: Liza Minnelli ("Cabaret"), Jennifer Hudson ("Dreamgirls"), Jeremy Jordan ("Newsies"), Nikki Blonsky ("Hairspray"), Jesse L. Martin ("Rent") and Krysta Rodriguez ("The Addams Family").
Oscar-winner Hudson appears in tonight's season premiere, as established Broadway star Veronica Moore. She advises Karen to guard her career fiercely. Hudson's breakout moment is when she sings a sassy Shaiman-Wittman song: "Mama Makes Three," with the lyric "One and one is two, but baby, mama makes three." Speaking of Mamas, Bernadette Peters returns as the Broadway-veteran mother of Megan Hilty's character, Ivy Lynn. At the end of season one, Ivy had been passed over for the starring role in "Bombshell."
Having seen most of the season as it was shot, Wittman peppers the conversation with tantalizing details, mentioning new songs for big names, divulging that "Bombshell" doesn't open on Broadway till episode 12 of the 17-show season.
Wittman and Shaiman, who are also executive producers on the show, have nearly completed their work on the season, which includes non-Marilyn songs.
"We wrote two songs for a musical version of 'Dangerous Liaisons' that pops up in the middle of the season," Wittman says. "We wrote two songs for Jennifer Hudson, a song for Liza Minnelli and two for Bernadette Peters. That's been really thrilling this year."
Another thrilling development for "SMASH" fans — one they won't have to wait too long for — arrives Feb. 12 when NBC and Sony release a "Bombshell" cast recording, a compilation of 22 Shaiman-Wittman songs that make up the fictional musical. The disc, complete with liner notes, includes songs from seasons one and two, giving viewers a sneak peek at what lies ahead on the show.
(Spoiler alert: Included on the disc are two new songs sung by Peters: "Hang the Moon" and "At Your Feet." Does this mean Ivy's mom will be in the cast?)
Says Shaiman: "We explain in the liner notes what was needed in each episode. Sometimes they'd tell us, 'It'd be great if this character on "SMASH" sang a song at a party. Can you think of a song that might have been cut from the musical that they could sing?' There are more than a few songs like that that were written with the need of the episode being a priority."
In show business, those songs — cut from the production during devlopment — are called "orphans."
For example, says Wittman, one of the songs was written for the character of playwright Arthur Miller, Monroe's third husband, "but Debra Messing sang it in the show and she sings in on the recording."
Shaiman says pulling together the cast recording showed the songwriters what they had.
"When we sat with all the songs and created a synopsis," he says, "it's quite linear and makes sense. That's not to say that Scott and I sat down to write a musical of the Marilyn Monroe story."
Season 2 sees a parallel musical in the works, written by Jeremy Jordan's character, Jimmy Collins, who is introduced in tonight's premiere as an angry, songwriting bartender with Broadway dreams. His musical, called "Hit List," is written by Joe Iconis, with contributions by up-and-coming composers Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, giving it a different sound than "Bombshell." For the season-opener, Iconis wrote "Broadway, Here I Come!" sung by Jordan.
"Joe's one of our favorite kids," Wittman says.
Even sharing the writing chores with other writers, the Tony-winning team behind "Hairspray" had to work quickly this season, as they are needed this winter in London, where their new musical of Roald Dahl's "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," is taking shape and is set to open June 25. "We had to hit the ground running, because we started in June," Wittman says. "We just got back from London where we did a workshop for a week. We start rehearsals Feb. 18, start previews in May and 'Charlie' opens June 25."
"Charlie" tells the story of a young Londoner who wins a trip to tour the famous Wonka Chocolate Factory. Once there, he encounters Willy Wonka, Oompa Loompas, and a host of nasty children: Augustus Gloop, Veruca Salt, Violet Beauregarde and Mike Teevee, each of whom is more spoiled than the next.
Adds Shaiman: "Luckily, our work on the show is peaking just as we're getting ready to leave. I'll have some more nuts-and-bolts music things to take care of. After Scott and I write a song, I have that whole other side of arranging and recording and mixing and editing. Some of that, I'll have to be doing late at night in London, but our writing is really finished."
Wittman is a huge fan of Dahl, whose book "Matilda" has been adapted into this spring's most-anticipated Broadway show. "When you start to enter into his world you realize how prophetic he was about the future," Wittman says. "Everything he wrote 30 years ago still applies tenfold now."
Adds Shaiman: "Of all the characters, we have so much more now in his songs, for Mike Teevee to talk about in the modern world. And even Violet Beauregarde, who becomes famous for chewing gum. The idea of somebody becoming a celebrity for no reason is so much more prevalent than ever."
The writers waxed rhapsodic about their diner of choice when they're at their weekend home upstate: Johnny D's Diner in Newburgh.
"We have been literally flying first-class from England, staying in four-star hotels and then the next morning, we're at Johnny D's in Newburgh for breakfast," Shaiman says. "We couldn't be happier. We have written more material — or have been just about to write — more things for "SMASH" and "Charlie" when we eat breakfast at Johnny D's. I can't praise Johnny D's enough."
What's their breakfast of choice?
"Their menu is so varied," Shaiman gushes. "I guess I'm just hoping they'll pick up our check when we're there."
"There's always a pancake involved," Wittman adds, laughing.
"SMASH" returns to NBC at 9 p.m. Feb. 5 Tuesday 2/5 with a two-hour double episode.
"Bombshell: The New Marilyn Musical from 'SMASH'" will be available on iTunes on Feb. 12. $15.99

DC Relaunches All-Ages 'All-New Batman: The Brave And The Bold' Comic
If fans were bummed to learn of the cancellation of "Batman: The Brave and the Bold" on the Cartoon Network following this upcoming season's run, they were extra bummed to discover an apparent cancellation of its DC comic at the end of October. While the animated series is still on track to end after this season, DC not only isn't canceling its comic book incarnation — the publisher is relaunching it as "The All-New Batman: The Brave and the Bold" in November.

Topic: Off to Orlando GI ASCO
If the weather will allow us to take off (major storm to reach Northern California) if so...then, I will be leaving for Fort Lauderdale, followed by a car trip to Orlando for the GI ASCO. Again, the Cholangiocarcinoma Foundation will have an exhibit booth. And, for the first time, we will be able to display our banners. Karen had them made for us. Thanks again, dear Karen. I will take pictures with the hope that Rick will be able to display them for all to see. I will also have another Face to Face meeting with the members of the North American Task Force for Clinical Trials for Hepatobiliary Cancer. The GI ASCO conference offers several sessions pertaining to our cancer and I am hopeful to report back with some exciting good news. Also, I am planning on meeting with Laura, who is interested in volunteering for the Foundation. Lot's of good things coming our way. I don't have much time however, is there is anyone able to join me in Orlando (if you happen to live there) or, if someone would like to say a quick "hello" while I am visiting in Fort Lauderdale please, send me a note. (email@example.com) I have a lay-over in Phoenix (hm...real close to Lainy) however, it doesn't give me any time to leave the secure area and then check back in. Next time then.
Best to all,

Extension field specialists in crops in western and northern Iowa are reporting an abundance of grasshopper nymphs beginning to feed at field edges. All reports so far mention feeding in soybean fields, generally in rows adjacent to grassy areas.
|Grasshopper nymphs defoliating soybean leaves.
In the past, treatment thresholds were determined by counting the number of grasshoppers per square yard. However, counting grasshoppers in either corn or soybean is almost impossible because they are either partially hidden in the foliage, or they constantly hop out of the area you're trying to count. It usually is not too difficult to determine if grasshoppers are abundant, so stop trying to count the number per square yard. New treatment thresholds are determined by percentage of leaf defoliation. By focusing on the amount of leaf defoliation, you can use a nominal threshold (based on experience) and common sense about managing grasshoppers.
In soybean, consider treatment if grasshoppers are present and defoliation reaches 40 percent in the vegetative stages or 20 percent in the pod-forming and pod-filling stages. Determine the exact location of grasshoppers in the field and spray only those areas. Grasshoppers often are concentrated along field edges or waterways but they sometimes occur in large areas in the center of the field, especially if weeds were present last year. Reductions in yield can occur during any crop stage, although pod-forming and pod-filling stages are at greater risk than other plant stages. Soybean plants can compensate for considerable foliage loss, and a 40 percent leaf loss during any vegetative stage will result in only a 3-7 percent yield reduction. Percentage of leaf defoliation during pod-forming and pod-filling stages is highly comparable to percentage of yield loss. A 20 percent defoliation during reproductive stages will result in about a 20 percent yield reduction.
Grasshoppers in corn are usually more of a late-summer pest. Corn injury is more likely to occur in late July through harvest. Consider treatment if grasshoppers are clipping silks or ear tips, or are removing large amounts of foliage above the ear leaf. As we approach late summer, monitor cornfields for grasshopper problems.
In all crops, remember that grasshopper nymphs eventually will become adults and cause more leaf loss during late July, August, and September. Nymphs should not be sprayed until injury approaches a level that could cause economic yield loss. This may not occur until nymphs become adults. Fortunately, some insecticides provide excellent control of adult grasshoppers. Another consideration before spraying is that a naturally occurring fungus can reduce hopper populations, meaning that economic damage may not occur in the field. Always rescout your fields prior to spraying. Do not rely on early reports of pest problems.

I, like a lot of folks, really like grip tape on my competition gun. But getting the stuff to fit securely and completely is a royal pain. After a knockdown-dragout session of fitting my gun with tape the first time, I decided that surely there must be a better way.
Now you can have the traction qualities of a "Scott" type-grip in about two minutes for five bucks - rather than spending 45 minutes cutting out "paper dolls," seeing if they fit, not being happy, starting over......anyway, you get the drill. (I don't know about you, I'd rather be shooting.)
