Al Saunders: I'll be shocked if Terrelle Pryor isn't in the Pro Bowl
Browns receivers coach Al Saunders thinks his team let a Pro Bowl wide receiver get away this offseason.
Saunders told ESPN that he believes Terrelle Pryor, who left Cleveland for Washington in free agency, is going to be a Pro Bowler at the end of the season.
"I will be shocked if he isn't in the Pro Bowl," Saunders said. "He's going to have that kind of year."
That raises an obvious question: Why didn't the Browns keep Pryor, who left for a one-year, $6 million contract that Cleveland easily could have afforded under its salary cap? If Saunders seriously believes Pryor is a Pro Bowler, and the Browns' front office let him walk anyway, that would suggest that the coaches and the personnel department aren't on the same page.
Despite playing in a bad offense last season in his first year as a wide receiver after switching from quarterback, Pryor caught 77 passes for 1,007 yards. In a better offense in Washington, it won't be surprising at all to see Saunders proven right. In which case Pryor was a bargain for Washington, and letting him leave was a mistake for Cleveland.
Eric Dickerson: Sean Mannion should start over Jared Goff
Eric Dickerson isn't done offering his opinions about the Rams.
Dickerson, the Hall of Fame former Rams running back who routinely ripped Jeff Fisher before he was fired as the Rams' coach last year, is now weighing in on the Rams' quarterback situation. And in Dickerson's view, last year's first overall pick Jared Goff showed last year that he's not as good a passer as 2015 third-round pick Sean Mannion.
"The offense was terrible. The offense looked like a high school offense," Dickerson said on FS1. "My guy that I would start the season with would be Sean Mannion. I've been saying that since last year. Give him a shot."
Dickerson said he attended a Rams practice last year where someone whose name he did not divulge told him that Mannion was good enough to start, but that Goff got the nod because of the money invested in him as a first overall pick.
"I was at practice early last year, before I got kicked off the sidelines, and I was standing next to some of the guys. I said, 'Man, he can throw,'" Dickerson recalled. "He said, 'He can throw it. He can really throw it.' I said, 'Why won't they play him?' He said, 'You know. The money. We've got a No. 1 draft pick. We've got all this money to him.'"
Mannion has never started a game and has thrown just 13 passes in his two years as a Ram, but Dickerson thinks Mannion should be the man.
"It's all about winning football games," Dickerson said. "You have a better chance of winning with Sean Mannion."
O.J. Simpson will be welcome at the Pro Football Hall of Fame
The Pro Football Hall of Fame invites every Hall of Famer to its annual enshrinement ceremony every year, and that will include O.J. Simpson in 2018.
Asked whether Simpson will be welcome once he's paroled, the Hall of Fame told ESPN, "All Hall of Famers are invited to attend the annual enshrinement."
Simpson has been a pariah in NFL circles since he was accused of double murder in 1994. But he was granted parole this week for a 2008 armed robbery conviction and is expected to be released in October, so he could attend next year's enshrinement ceremony.
The Hall of Fame has kept Simpson's bust in place despite his off-field issues. Simpson has not attended a Hall of Fame ceremony since his own enshrinement in 1985.
Dolphins center Mike Pouncey to have hip examined next week
Dolphins center Mike Pouncey will have his left hip examined next week with hopes of being cleared to join his teammates for the start of training camp July 27, according to Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald. But the Dolphins won't make a decision on whether to place Pouncey on the physically unable to perform list until after the exam.
Pouncey has not practiced since last November, playing only five games last season.
Dolphins coach Adam Gase has joked this offseason about placing Pouncey in "bubble wrap" to protect the offensive lineman from injury. To that end, according to Salguero, Pouncey will not practice much in training camp or even the regular season as the Dolphins protect him against injury.
Pouncey has not played a full, 16-game season since 2012, his second season. He has required surgery on both hips.
Is Simeon Rice a Hall of Famer?
Warren Sapp long has campaigned for Hall of Fame selectors to recognize his former teammate Simeon Rice, whom Sapp has said is better than Michael Strahan. Now, the Buccaneers' website has made a case for Rice to join Sapp and Strahan in Canton.
"There is no doubt Simeon Rice should be a Hall-of-Famer," former Bucs linebacker Derrick Brooks, a 2014 Hall of Fame inductee, told Scott Smith. "Anyone that puts up 122 sacks and has eight double-digit sack seasons during a 12-year career deserves to be in the conversation. And he did this while going against the best offensive linemen—the left tackles. Sim is one of the best pass rushers of his time, and he played a big part in making us the dominant defense that we were in the early 2000s. Go talk to some of the great Hall-of-Fame left tackles that had to go up against Sim on a regular basis, and all you'll hear is how hard he was to get in front of and slow down. For a left tackle out there on an island, he was their worst nightmare."
Of the defensive linemen voted into the Hall since 1981, only five played all or most of their careers at right end as Rice did.
Selectors have never voted Rice — now in his fifth year of eligibility — a finalist. The top-11 all-time sack leaders have made the Hall of Fame. Leslie O'Neal, who ranks 12th with 132.5 career sacks, and Rice, who ranks 13th with 122, have the most career sacks without a bust in Canton. (Sacks became an official statistic in 1982.)
Cowboys defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli, who was Rice's position coach in Tampa, long has pushed to get Rice in Canton.
"Simeon was always big in the big games from the Super Bowl to all the playoff games," Marinelli told Smith. "He was the missing piece for our defense because he was a guy that could take the game over. Some of the biggest games he had were against the very best players. He helped drive us to our Super Bowl championship. To me, that is what the Hall of Fame is all about. It's not just the numbers. It's about the guys that can get you to a world championship and that's what Simeon did."
The problem for Rice is that he played on a defense that already has two Hall of Famers in Sapp and Brooks. Safety John Lynch has been a finalist. Cornerback Ronde Barber becomes eligible in the Class of 2018. As great as the Bucs defense was, they won one Super Bowl. (Yes, I realize who the Bucs quarterbacks were as I covered the team then.) With Lynch, Barber and Rice likely among nominees this year, the question for selectors becomes: Who was the next most important part of that defense?
Rice can take solace in Charles Haley's journey to Canton. It took Haley, who had 100.5 sacks and five Super Bowl rings, six years to become a finalist and 11 to earn election.
David Irving a no-show as Cowboys report
Defensive lineman David Irving was a no-show as the Cowboys reported to training camp Friday, sources confirmed. ESPN's Todd Archer first reported Irving's unexcused absence.
The Cowboys held a conditioning run and physicals at their training complex in Frisco, a day before leaving for Oxnard, Calif.
Receiver Dez Bryant arrived late, and the Cowboys are expected to fine him. Irving, though, is subject to a $40,000 fine for missing the reporting date, according to the NFL's collective bargaining agreement.
Last month, the NFL suspended Irving for the first four games for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing drugs. He had four sacks and four forced fumbles last season and was expected to play a big role as a pass-rusher this season.
Agent: Adam Jones considering options after receiving one-game suspension
The agent for Adam Jones said they are considering "all options" after the league suspended the Bengals cornerback for one game for violating the personal conduct penalty. Jones has three days to appeal.
"We are reviewing the ruling and assessing all options," agent Peter Schaffer said, via Liz Mullen of the Sports Business Journal. "Any decision we make will be in the best interest of Adam, the Bengals and the NFL."
Jones pleaded guilty to obstructing official business after a January incident in which he spat on a jailhouse nurse.
In the league's letter to Jones, they said the "extensive video documentation of the tone, tenor and nature of your interactions with law enforcement at the site of your arrest, during transportation to the jail, and during the booking process. As you acknowledged, your post-arrest words and actions reflected poorly on you and your family, the Cincinnati Bengals football club, and the NFL. While it is our understanding that appropriate apologies have been publicly extended, they do not completely negate your behavior and admission of culpability for the underlying conduct."
Deone Bucannon only Cardinals player on PUP
Cardinals linebacker Deone Bucannon will begin training camp on the physically unable to perform list. Coach Bruce Arians said Friday, after the team's conditioning run, that Bucannon is the only player on PUP.
Bucannon had surgery on his right ankle in May after a lingering problem caused him to miss the final three games of last season.
The Cardinals hope Bucannon can return in time for the season opener.
"Deone is close," Arians said, via Darren Urban of the team website. "He's getting there. I think he's a little bit ahead of schedule. We have our fingers crossed. The first game is his due date, so to speak. Hopefully we'll have him ready to play."
Haason Reddick, the team's first-round pick, has taken first-team reps in Bucannon's spot next to veteran Karlos Dansby.
Linebacker Jarvis Jones tweaked a quadriceps muscle during the conditioning run Friday, Arians said, and could miss a few days of work.
Dez Bryant arrives late to conditioning test, physicals
Dez Bryant threw a free barbeque for his hometown of Lufkin on Thursday, but he likely earned a fine from the Cowboys after showing up late to the team facility Friday.
Bryant told Jane Slater of the NFL Network that he had a sinus infection and headache, so he spent the night in Lufkin, which is 175 miles from Frisco. Per Slater, Bryant said he should have informed the coaching staff earlier, but that he has talked to coaches, takes full responsibility and is prepared for the consequences.
Bryant arrived three hours late for physicals and the team's conditioning test. Bryant told Mike Fisher of 105.3 The Fan that he wasn't scheduled to run because of the sinus infection.
Although Bryant has a history of tardiness, he reminded Slater that he has "laid low" this offseason.
Falcons still hoping to sell out their PSLs
As the Falcons prepare to open their swanky new stadium in Atlanta, the bad news is that they still have nearly 6,000 PSLs to sell. The good news is that they've sold more than 55,000.
Via the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the Falcons have sold 55,113 Personal Seat Licenses. The PSLs have generated $256.3 million.
Roughly 10,000 seats are excluded from the PSL process. The PSLs range from $500 to $45,000 per seat.
So, basically, the food at the stadium will be cheap. But not much else will be.
Dolphins place two undrafted rookies on PUP
The Dolphins placed running back De'Veon Smith and tackle Eric Smith on the physically unable to perform list.
Miami signed De'Veon Smith as an undrafted college free agent on May 5. A two-year starter at Michigan, he played 49 career games with 26 starts. Smith had 495 carries for 2,235 yards and 22 touchdowns, while catching 38 passes for 251 yards and one touchdown.
The Dolphins signed Eric Smith as an undrafted college free agent on May 5. He started all four years at Virginia, playing in 45 career games. He was the team's starting right tackle for every game from 2014-16.
Michael Oher sued by Uber driver for assault
Michael Oher's bad week keeps getting worse.
According to the Associated Press, the former Panthers left tackle — who was released Thursday — has now been sued in connection with the Nashville incident in which he was accused of assaulting an Uber driver.
Oher faces misdemeanor charges from the April incident. The lawsuit, filed by driver Girma Berkessa said that Oher was "extremely intoxicated." The suit also contends Oher pushed the driver to the ground, kicked him and called him a homophobic slur several times.
Oher was released with a failed physical designation. He's been in the league's concussion protocol since Week Three of last season, and visited a concussion specialist earlier this week.
Malik Jackson predicts Super Bowl title for Jaguars
The Jaguars' 80-1 Super Bowl odds are better than only five other teams. But if Malik Jackson is to be believed, Jacksonville is a good bet.
Jackson, who won a Super Bowl with the Broncos before leaving for the Jaguars' six-year, $85.5 million offer last offseason, expects Jacksonville to win Super Bowl LII.
"That's what I believe and, until we lose, that's when I'll believe different," Jackson told The Simms and Lefkoe Podcast, via NFL.com.
"The Panthers did it. If the Panthers can do it after the season they had [in going 7-8-1 in 2014]. . . But we're going to win the Super Bowl. If they can do it, why can't we?"
The Jaguars were a trendy darkhorse playoff pick this time a year ago, but after last year's 3-13 season, few are willing to venture out on that limb again. Jacksonville has not made the playoffs since 2007 despite several high draft picks and high-profile free agent signings.
"I'm very confident," Jackson said. "It truly feels different. . . .I think it's a lot of guys coming in here and coming to Jacksonville saying, 'I'm going to change this. I'm going to do this. I'm going to do that,'" Jackson said. "We have leaders. We have a lot of great players. We just need to be consistent, and that's on all three sides of the ball: offense, defense and special teams."
Vikings sign Chunky Clements, release Caleb Kidder
The Vikings signed defensive tackle Chunky Clements on Friday. They released defensive end Caleb Kidder to make room for Clements.
Clements went undrafted after starting 20 games and playing in 26 others at Illinois. He finished his college career with 99 tackles, six sacks and four forced fumbles.
Clements missed the final game of the 2016 season after undergoing surgery to repair a Lisfranc tear in his right foot.
The Vikings now have 89 players on their roster.
Jim Harbaugh hires ex-49ers executive Tom Gamble at Michigan
Shortly after John Lynch was hired as the 49ers' General Manager, Assistant G.M. Tom Gamble left the team. Now he's reuniting with a former 49ers coach.
Jim Harbaugh is hiring Gamble to work at the Michigan football program, Tim Kawakami of TheAthletic.com reports.
Gamble and Harbaugh worked together during Harbaugh's time as the 49ers' head coach. It's unclear exactly what Gamble's role will be at Michigan, but it's believed he'll work in football administration, not as an on-field coach.
Harbaugh has built a large and expensive staff at Michigan, with three assistant coaches making $1 million a year.

An Unassuming Missouri Cat Is the Archetype For Feline-Human Scientific Research Worldwide
Cinnamon is a shy cat. While the other cats in Dr. Kristina Narfstrom's ophthalmology research center at the University of Missouri College of Veterinary Medicine vie for the attention of veterinary medical students and technicians, Cinnamon is more reticent, preferring to sit quietly and watch the other cats play and carouse.
The reddish-haired feline's introversion notwithstanding, Cinnamon is an important cat. In fact, scientifically, she may be one of the most important cats who has ever lived.
Of all of the cats in the world, Cinnamon has been chosen to be the definitive genetic model for all cats in a project called the feline genome project. By donating a small vial of blood, Cinnamon will provide scientists wherewithal to map the feline genetic structure, eventually allowing for each gene's function to be noted and studied.
Such data will be hugely important. Armed with this genetic navigation chart, scientists across disciplines will be better able to determine the location and function of each gene on the feline chromosome, allowing scientists to determine which genetic part causes diseases such as blindness and cancer. Knowing the location of malformed genes, scientists may soon be able to create gene therapies to cure previously unsolvable problems.
The effort to map the feline genome is directed by the National Human Genome Research Institute, part of the National Institutes of Health.
Previously, scientists have mapped the genomes for dogs, rats, mice, chickens, and humans. Each of these studies has given researchers tremendous research grist, providing important clues in a score of diseases. Though late to the game, the cat genome is a long anticipated tool for the researchers.
Dr. Narfstrom predicts that the feline genome will rapidly shed new research light on a number of cat and human medical problems including virus-mediated diseases, respiratory problems, cancers, AIDS, immunity problems, muscular dystrophy, polycystic kidney disorder, and Dr. Narfstrom's research specialty, retinal eye diseases. Cats and humans share about 250 genetic diseases.
Dr. Narfstrom is one of the many scientists worldwide who will benefit from the mapping of the feline genome. Dr. Narfstrom has spent her professional career, spanning continents, studying vision-threatening diseases caused by genetic defects. One defect, Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP), is a hereditary and blinding retinal disease of humans and affects approximately 1 person in 3,500. It is thus one of the most prevalent blinding diseases. About 100,000 people in the United States have been diagnosed with RP. Worldwide, approximately 1.5 million people have the problem. Most patients are legally blind by around age 40. There is no current cure.
Dr. Narfstrom notes that RP, that afflicts cats and humans, may be caused by mutations in any one of at least fifty different genes, resulting in a malfunction and a breakdown of the photoreceptor cells of the retina. The rod photoreceptors are often affected first by the disease, and then, somewhat later, also the cones. Blood vessels diminish in size in the retina as photoreceptors die.
Dr. Narfstrom is the MU College of Veterinary Medicine 's Ruth M. Kraeuchi-Missouri Professor in Veterinary Ophthalmology.

This is an excellent time to refinance. Rates are at historic lows and there are streamline programs available that make it easier than ever. FHA approve lenders can offer FHA streamline refinances. Borrowers can use the HARP program if their home value has significantly declined and a VA approved lender can help veterans take advantage of low rates as well.
Slight deductions in interest rates make a large difference in your monthly payment and the amount of interest you will pay over the life of your loan. For example a $300,000 mortgage loan at 5.5% for 30 years would have a monthly principal and interest payment of $1,703. That same loan with a 4% interest rate would have a monthly payment of $1,432. With a payment difference of approximately $270 a family could use that money to pay for a new car or save up for a much needed family vacation.
Steps to Refinance Quickly and Easily
- Contact an FHA approved mortgage lender. This will give you access to the majority of available loan programs. Each lender has to go through an approval process so ask if they are approved when calling.
- Pull out your loan statement. Tell the lender what you currently owe, your monthly payments, and your current interest rate. This will help them determine if today's interest rates would save you money.
- Gather your personal financial documents. This includes pay stubs, W-2's, tax returns, and bank statements.
- Locate your home owners insurance policy and provide a copy to the mortgage lender.
- Complete your application over the phone, online, or in person with the information found on these documents.
- The lender will send you a Good Faith Estimate (GFE) to review. This will list out your new loan amount, monthly payment, interest rate, and fees associated with closing the loan. If the terms are agreeable return the GFE along with the signed disclosure documents and the previous items you collected.
- Underwriting will commence once you send in the signed paperwork and if anything else is needed they will contact you.
- Respond quickly to any requests for documentation so that you do not risk losing your interest rate lock. Rates change with the market and a typical rate lock will only last for 30 days.
- An appraisal will be ordered by the lender, if one is required. Present your home in the best possible light, as the appraiser will be taking pictures.
- Once the appraisal is back and your documents have been reviewed the underwriter will issue a final approval, or let you know if you do not qualify at this time. After the final approval is issued loan documents will be drawn up.
- Sign the loan documents at your lenders office, with a notary, or at escrow and return them promptly for processing. They do have a time limit and you do not want them to expire.
Your entire refinance can be done remotely and the process can go fairly quickly. You can help to expedite the process by having all of your personal information ready when you make the first call. During the refinance process make yourself available for calls from your lender and respond promptly. This will help you get through the process faster so that you can start saving money.

Procedures for Processing Faculty
UMDNJ Criteria for Designation of Retiring or Retired Faculty as Emereti
The history of emeritus designations at UMDNJ is consistent with a highly selective set of criteria under which only a small percent of retiring or retired faculty receive this title for service at the University of the highest distinction. The University Bylaws state:
"Such recommendations should be based upon significant contributions in teaching, research or clinical or administrative services."
The Bylaws also require a process of recommendation and approval beginning within the School and progressing to the President and the Board of Trustees. As part of that process, each School's bylaws are to provide for a faculty committee to review and make recommendations regarding emeritus designations under criteria tailored for the disciplines and traditions of that School. The following University criteria shall serve as general statements from which the Schools shall derive their own School-specific criteria which shall be consistent with the University criteria:

Brisbane Calif. -- Bebe Stores reported Thursday that profit for the fourth quarter doubled to $4.7 million, from $2 million in the year-ago period.
Revenue rose 8% to $132.3 million, compared with $122.1 million last year and beating Wall Street expectations of $126.1 million. Same-store sales grew 7%.
For the year, the company narrowed its loss to $1.8 million, from $5.2 million in fiscal 2010. Annual revenue increased 3% to $493.3 million.
Bebe said it expects to open four Bebe stores and as many as seven 2b stores in the new fiscal year. That includes two stores that could be converted from Bebe to 2b. It plans to close 10 Bebe locations, representing a sq. ft. dip of 2%. International licensees are expected to add up to 30 standalone stores and 30 shop-in-shops.

Every so often your make-up bag needs a "detox" so the new year is a great time to have a clear out.
Most products go off after 18 months, except for mascara, which you should throw out every three to six months.
So anything that has dried out or not been used goes, especially the clumpy mascara you are still trying to pump some life out of!
I buy Maybelline's Great Lash, £4.99, because I don't cry when I have to bin it!
Throw out glittery eye shadows and stick to neutrals for spring.
I've invested in Armani's Rose Bliss palette at Debenhams, that contains a sheer blusher and three shimmery shadows. It costs £60 but it will last all year.
Next, clear out lipsticks that are the same shade and the ones you don't wear.
A foundation should last a year so I know January is the time to change mine.
I am hooked on Bourjois Healthy Mix (£9.99).
Also invest in products that multitask. I swear by Benefit's Stay Don't Stray, (£19.50) an eye shadow and primer that acts as an under-eye concealer.
In January, I also chuck out old foundation sponges and wash my brushes in warm water and shampoo.
Once you've done this you will feel so much better. In fact, I have no idea why I only do it once a year!
Ask Danielle
My hands are so dry that skin is literally flaking off them. I have been using hand cream but it does not seem to help.
Olivia, Durham
A friend of mine gave me a tube of Marks & Spencer's Formula Skin Care Intense Overnight Hand Cream and after a week I can already see results.
I use a little bit every night before I go to bed so that it has time to soak in.
It contains algae extracts and fruit acids, removes dead skin cells and adds moisture. I highly recommend it. #
M&S Formula Skin Care Intense Overnight Hand Cream, £6.
Cheap treat
I love a good lip balm and have just bought this lovely, soothing one.
I had a trawl through M&S's new beauty halls and found some great treats. This is made from 95% natural ingredients and with 100% pure essential oil fragrances. It feels really luxurious for only £5.
Plus, it smells of cocoa butter and almond oil. Yum!
Beauty School: 3 of the best under-eye creams

I saw someone in a nice 5/4/3 yesterday just getting tossed around in the white wash. I was keeping my eye on them out of concern, but that was the first time I've seen someone that clueless in winter conditions. I believe in helping kooks, since I still am one (on some level), but I've never seen them come out in less-than-ideal conditions. Are people really dropping $450 on a wetsuit when they can't even paddle out?

With Better Gear...
With winter gear getting better each year, it is inevitable that even the most inexperienced are going give winter surfing a try. Yesterday was pretty big though, so you can't really say everyone that was floundering around is a kook...there were probably quite a few people that have been surfing for years that struggled to get out yesterday...But people need to know their limits and stay on the beach when the surf is beyond their skill level / endurance.
Also, it is winter break for a lot of people so you can assume that many of those that live away from the beach are making the commute to surf, especially when waves are that good.
Funny thing is, when it gets that cold and strong, people get skittish and weak. Was out the day after Thanksgiving... it was chest high and clean, and this guy literally took 20 mins to paddle out. But when he was out, he was a decent surfer. He blamed it on all the food he ate the day before.

You can get fully hooked up now for <$300 with some decent winter gear, so its actaully easier and smarter for a beginner/kook to invest in a wetsuit/hood/boots/gloves and borrow or rent a board for a few years than investing in a board at first without the proper wetsuit gear. As long as the waves are under stomach/chest high, its actually better for a kook (with a few friends to lifeguard them) to splash around and learn to catch waves in the offseason and winter, than being in the way during the selective few "good" summer days.
I've been surfing for about 4 years and I'm still quite the beginner/kook status because I can only get out 5-10 times a year. Progress is qutie slow and frustrating (but there does seem to be some progress!). After 2 years of building my wetsuit inventory, I'm now fully suited up for 45 degree water temps. Yet, I'm still a kook in the water for sure (but at least I know some etiquette and respect...I just look like a bumbling fool in the water most of the time)!

Hah! that's a good point! My bet is probably a little to do with having a gut full of turkey and gravy combined with the cold water making it harder to paddle. I'm tenatively planning to surf on New Year's Day (so far appears to be waist high and clean..but subject to change). I'll have to lay low on the booze NY Eve, otherwise I'll end up looking like Jan Michael Vincent in the beginning scene of "Big Wednesday"...all hungover and floundering around in the water! I surfed once last summer hungover..man that was the worst surfing I ever had in a long time. I was really frustrated because it was one of the few surfable days on my whole week's vacation. Don't go to Secrets the night before, then try to pull off a dawn patrol on 3 hrs. sleep...very bad combo!

Whoa learn your verb tenses. My brain hurts from reading that. I agree learning to surf in the winter probably isn't a bad idea with less crowded conditions and more ride-able days. Hell, there isn't really anything more fun to do in the winter anyways.

Definitely caught my lumps out there yesterday..but when you caught that right A frame with a nice shoulder..ahh man..ecstacy! This morning was real fun too...and still pretty powerful.

Influential Photographs: Earthrise, 1968 by William Anders2013-07-24 4 Share Tweet
Forty-five years after it was taken, the Earthrise remains one of the most impressive and iconic photographs of the planet Earth taken from space. Find out more about this influential photographs after the jump!
Prior to the momentous Apollo 11 spaceflight in 1969 where Neil Armstrong snapped the Man on the Moon, there was another manned spaceflight that brought home a historic photograph.
On December 21, 1968, the Apollo 8 mission sent a three-astronaut crew — Commander Frank Borman, Command Module Pilot James Lovell, and Lunar Module Pilot William Anders — to carry out the first manned voyage to orbit the Moon. By completing their mission, the three astronauts became the first humans to venture beyond the Low Earth Orbit (160 – 2,000 kilometers above Earth), the first to see the Earth as a whole planet, and the first to see the far side of the Moon directly. Additionally, they became the first humans to photograph the Earth rising over the Moon, with William Anders being the spaceman behind the camera when the iconic "Earthrise" was taken on December 24, 1968.
What kind of films and camera did the crew bring along with them? Here's what the Apollo 8 Press Kit says:
"A large quantity of film of various types has been loaded aboard the Apollo 8 spacecraft for lunar surface photography and for items of interest that crop up in the course of the mission.
"Camera equipment carried on Apollo 8 consists of two 70mm Hasselblad still cameras with two 80mm focal length lenses, a 250mm telephoto lens, and associated equipment such as filters, ringsight, spotmeter, and intervalometer for stereo strip photography. For motion pictures, a 16mm Maurer camera with variable frame rates will be used.
"Apollo 8 film stowage is as follows: 3 magazines of Panatomic-X intermediate speed black and white for total 600 frames; 2 magazines SO-368 (ASA 64) Ektachrome color reversal for total 352 frames; 1 magazine SO-121 Ektachrome special daylight color reversal for total 160 frames; and 1 magazine 2485 high-speed black and white (ASA 6,000, push to 16,000) for dim-light photography, total 120 frames. Motion picture film: 9 130-foot magazines SO-368 for total 1170 feet, and 2 magazines SO-168 high speed interior color for total 260 feet."
A recorded conversation between Frank Borman and William Anders tells us that the former first took a black and white photograph using a highly modified Hasselblad 500 EL, before the latter was able to find a suitable 70mm color film and shoot the iconic "Earthrise" that we all know from history. The Apollo Flight Journal has provided a transcription of the conversation, along with some notes and details, in the Day 4: Lunar Orbits 4, 5 and 6 page.
As a bonus, you can watch a NASA simulation of that historic moment below:
All information for this article were sourced from Earthrise on Wikipedia, Earthrise at Christmas - NASA Official Website, and Apollo 8 Press Kit - NASA Official Website.
Our intention with the Influential Photographs columns is not to glorify or demean the subject of the photo. Our intention with this column is to highlight the most influential analogue photographs of history. The photographs we feature are considered icons, for their composition, subject matter, or avant-garde artistic value.

The focus of GBUS 160 is on YOU as a citizen decision maker, a consumer, and a financially responsible individual. If you select GBUS as your Cluster One Critical Thinking course you will examine the decision making skills that are necessary to successfully navigate our capitalist free-enterprise economy. The three main themes of this class are business ethics & social responsibility; securing your financial future; and being an engaged and responsible consumer.
GBUS 160 is NOT your typical Introduction to Business course. Unlike most introductory business courses which emphasize business enterprises, this course focuses on the individual and how business entities impact the quality of YOUR life. To that end, you will study the businesses decision making processes that promote ethical behavior and socially responsible business activities. Armed with that knowledge you should be better positioned to make informed choices with respect to regulating business activities that impact you as a citizen of the community.
The second focus of this course looks at how business creates value so that you can make decisions about participating in the wealth creation process through investing in the stock and bond markets in order to secure your financial future. One of the projects utilized to achieve this objective is a stock market investment simulation. In conjunction with this module, you will also learn how to use credit responsibly, employing the same financial strategies and techniques used by businesses to achieve their financial goals. In this module you will be asked to create a budget and research how to purchase significant assets such as a home or automobile.
The last area of focus involves understanding the strategies businesses employ to market products. Again the focus is on the individual as being an intelligent and responsible consumer of goods and services. By being knowledgeable of the marketing strategies, media techniques and psychology implemented by business to entice you into the exchange process, you will be able to superimpose your value system on the exchange, thus making more intelligent choices in satisfying your needs.

|strong no to Goto, dont get accustomed to using go to statements, they are really bad for various reasons!!!
|If you're going to completely ignore my problem and rant about goto statements
goto (with participants arguing on both sides) starting here:
goto is bad, but you know why it is bad. Not till then. When you would be able to say something more than: "goto's are terrible, and getting used to them is a truly terrible idea if you ever want to be more than a terrible programmer you should make the effort to stop using them". When you can say why unbridled use of
goto is bad.
goto anywhere is bad. The C++ community as a whole had three opportunities to say: "we know that the use
goto anywhere is unconditionally bad; we keep it only for compatibility with legacy code. It is deprecated" - once in 1998, again in 2003, and recently in 2013; but it did not. Clearly there is more to it than blind unquestioning belief; there is something worth thinking about.

Of over 6,000 examinees in northeast Thailand, 79% were found to be infected with the human hepatic trematode Opisthorchis viverrini. Some 90% of all examinees over the age of 10 were positive, and it is estimated that over 3.5 million persons in that country harbor the parasite. The snail hosts are Bithynia goniomphalus, B. funiculata, and B. laevis. The oculate and pleurocercous cercaria resembles that of O. felineus. The flame cell pattern of the cercaria as it leaves the snail host is 2[(3 + 3) + (3 + 3 + 3)], differentiating it from the cercaria of O. felineus, and establishing O. viverrini and O. felineus as separate species. The most important fish intermediate hosts are Punteus orphoides, Hampala dispar, and Cyclocheilicthys siaja, although a total of nine species were found to harbor the metacercariae. It is postulated, on the basis of seasonal fluctuations, that the largest number of human infections occur during the last portion of the rainy season and the first third of the dry (September to February). The characteristics which have been reported to differentiate adult O. viverrini from O. felineus have been studied but it has not been possible to separate the two species on the morphological characteristics of egg or adult. Thus, although not of practical laboratory significance, at present the only certain means of distinguishing between the two species is the flame cell patterns of cercariae or metacercariae.

Introduction– ChairReport
The Chair gave a short background of the BLA and updated management on the progress of the review.All reviewers reported that they had completed their first draft reviews.GSK submitted their responses on June 20, 2012, July 18, 2012, and July 19, 2012, to CBER's Information Request provided on April 30, 2012.GSK submitted a pediatric plan on July 19, 2012.PeRC and VRBPAC meetings were scheduled (see above).
Facilities/DMPQReview Report
The Facilities/DMPQ reviewer reported that she drafted a memo recommending waiving the pre-license inspection for Influenza A (H5N1) Monovalent Vaccine at the Ste Foy Facility in Quebec, Canada. In addition, the manufacturing facilities of Adjuvant AS03 (Rixensart/Wavre, Belgium) will not be inspected because the site is US licensed with an acceptable compliance history.
Clinical Review Report
The Clinical reviewer discussed the preliminary evaluation of the safety and immunogenicity studies. Immunogenicity:Studies Q-Pan-001 and Q-Pan-002 met their immunogenicity endpoints.
Safety:The Clinical reviewer discussed that both studies Q-Pan-001 and Q-Pan-002 reported more Grade 1, 2, and 3 injection site pain reactions in the adjuvanted vaccine treatment groups when compared with unadjuvanted vaccine controls or placebo.Studies Q-Pan-001 and Q-Pan-002 reported more systemic symptoms (for example: fatigue, headache, muscle aches, joint aches, and shivering) in the adjuvanted vaccine groups vs. unadjuvanted vaccine.The ISS confirmed findings of studies Q-Pan-001 and Q-Pan-002 with respect to reactogenicity events.An increased relative risk (RR) of adverse events associated with Q-Pan H5N1 over control was observed for:
- solicited reactogenicity events – nausea, malaise, injection site pruritus, injection site reaction, injection site warmth, RR 2- 10 (1.1,38).
- cystitis RR – 7(1.1,277)
- dizziness RR- 2 (1,2.5)
- insomniaRR – 4 (1.3,21)
There were no differences in SAEs or deaths between the treatment groups and control.
Statistical Review Report
The Statistics reviewer discussed the preliminary review of the Van Buynder clinical study report, submitted to the application as a pivotal study to support the traditional approval of the Q-Pan H5N1 vaccine. The Van Buynder study was a case-control test negative retrospective, observational study.The reviewer identified multiple issues with the Van Buynder study, including:
- Small sample size:91 participants completed the study.There are wide confidence intervals in any analysis of the data.Additionally, all analyses of the data are sensitive to how missing data values are handled.
- Design methodology issues: Many sources of bias/confounders were discussed.For example, selection bias may have been introduced because ordering H1N1 tests was done at the decision of the patient's physician and not as part of a pre-written protocol for testing patients.The study does not account for health care seeking behavior.There were no data collected for previous H1N1 infection.The number of days between sample collection and ILI onset were not considered.
- Missing data: 20/111 (18%) tested subjects should have been eligible but were not included in the study.
The Statistics reviewer was not able to draw any meaningful conclusions from the Van Buynder study.She expressed concern of using the information from this study in a label for the Q-Pan H5N1 vaccine, such as extrapolation of vaccine efficacy (100%) and the definition of a statistical criterion for vaccine effectiveness.
Epidemiology (Effectiveness Study)
A preliminary review of the ensemble of three published studies (Van Buynder et al. -Influenza Other Respi Viruses.2010;4(4):171-178; Mahmud et al.– Vaccine 29 (2011) 7975-7981; Skowronski et al. – BMJ 342 (2011) c7297) led to the conclusion that the monovalent H1N1 adjuvanted vaccine is effective against the pandemic H1N1 Influenza virus. The effectiveness of the adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine was higher for younger age groups.The Epidemiology reviewer also noted the limitations of the Van Buynder study as described by the Statistics and Clinical reviewers and concurred with their recommendation that the Van Buynder study alone should not be considered as a pivotal study for traditional approval of the Q-Pan H5N1 vaccine.
Conclusions and Recommendations
There was discussion among the review team and management about using the Van Buynder study and the path forward for approval.Both the review team and management agreed that the Van Buynder study was not sufficient to serve as a pivotal study for traditional approval of the Q-Pan H5N1 vaccine.There was also agreement that the preliminary reviews of the safety and immunogenicity data submitted in the BLA support licensure of the Q-Pan H5N1 vaccine in individuals ≥ 18 years of age via the accelerated approval regulations.Several scenarios were considered as possible confirmatory studies.
One path discussed was accelerated approval of the Q-Pan H5N1 vaccine using the results from the FluLaval efficacy study FLU Q-QIV-006 [A phase III, observer blind, randomized, non-influenza vaccine comparator-controlled, multi-country and multi-centre study of the efficacy of GSK Biologicals' quadrivalent, inactivated, split virion, seasonal influenza vaccine candidate, GSK2282512A (FLU Q-QIV), administered intramuscularly in healthy children 3 to 8 years of age] as a confirmatory study.The other path was accelerated approval using the results of a post-marketing study conducted during an H5N1 outbreak used as a confirmatory study.
Post-Meeting Update:On August 7, 2012, Management informed the review committee that the VRBPAC would be solicited for advice regarding the licensure pathway for the Q-Pan H5N1 vaccine at the November 2012, meeting.

text: London- MQM chief Altaf Hussain asked PM Nawaz Sharif to step down from office if it could pull the country out of crises. In a statement issued from London, Hussain urged political leaders to abstain from political mudslinging and have resolved their differences through dialogue. The MQM leader asked Nawaz Sharif to study the emerging situation deeply, and if there was a threat to the safety of people because of protests and sit-ins, the PM should show courage and step down. He added the PM may transfer his powers to any leader from his party or find any other constitutional way to keep everyone's dignity intact.

Blair's shock at policeman's death
Tony Blair has said he is "shocked and saddened" at the murder of a police officer during a counter-terrorism operation in Manchester.
Downing Street said Mr Blair had met the father-of-three more than once when he acted as one of his protection officers on visits to Manchester.
In a statement, the prime minister said: "It is an appalling tragedy and wicked in the extreme.
"The thoughts of everyone must be with his family and his colleagues.
"His death and the injuries to the other officers involved in this incident underline the dangers that our police and security forces face in these times."
Mr Blair is due to speak to Michael Todd, chief constable of Greater Manchester Police, on Wednesday morning.
The prime minister's official spokesman said it was too early to question the way police had handled the raid.
The spokesman added: "If there are any operational lessons to be learned then, as the chief constable has said, he will take that forward in due course."
Home Secretary David Blunkett also expressed shock at the events in Manchester.
"My thoughts are with all of those injured and my deepest condolences go out to the families of the officer who was killed," he said.
"I commend the bravery and commitment of these police officers in defending us not only against dangerous criminals but against those threatening the safety of our country."
The home secretary is expected to make a Commons statement about the murder later on Wednesday.
For the Conservatives, Oliver Letwin said the whole would mourn the murder of a "hero who died defending us from terrorism".
"The whole nation will mourn the murder of a hero who died defending us from terrorism.
'Front line'
"I profoundly hope that all the Police Officers injured will have a full and speedy recovery.
Liberal Democrat home affairs spokesman Simon Hughes said the tragedy was a stark reminder of the danger faced "by all those on the front line of the campaign against terrorism".
"Our support and solidarity goes to the officers of Greater Manchester," said Mr Hughes.
"But we must not be deflected from the pursuit of those who try by violence to undermine democracy.
"The best response is sorrow and anger but followed by determination and renewed commitment to the rule of law."

Kai receives a call for help from a man seeking to clear his grandfather's name. Accused of being a spy for the Japanese, Mr Tan's grandfather – a patriotic soldier – passed on labelled a traitor. His last words are a mystery: "The truth is behind the tunnels…"
To unravel the story behind the accusation, Kai traces the words to an abandoned fort, but loses his way in the dark burrows and winding tunnels. As he struggles in his hunt for the truth. Kai eventually stumbles across secrets that were never meant to see the light of day.
The Betrayal involves physical activity and we recommend comfortable clothing and shoes.
The call from Kai's old friend came suddenly. James, a property developer, has recently made the news for plans to redevelop a defunct hospital into a premium condominium. The abandoned hospital has a reputation for being a hangout for cults and rumour has it that sacrificial rituals were held on the premises. To Kai, James reveals a chilling secret: the group of colleagues sent there for a site survey never returned. With his company's reputation on the line, James pleads for Kai to investigate the matter before the media jumps to unsavoury conclusions.
As Kai races against time to locate James's missing colleagues, he uncovers a truth more frightening than rumours suggest.
October 15th, 1985
The headlines were unreal: "School Cleaner Missing After Student Found Hanged". The police initially thought the student, Judy Lim, committed suicide as she was found hanging in one of the toilet cubicles. Post-mortem revealed that she was actually strangled and the killer made it look like a suicide. The biggest suspect is the school cleaner who had not reported for work since October 15th. Police spoke to his family and he had not returned home since the night of October 14th.
Are things really that simple? What will the Ouija board reveal to private investigator Kai?
The request is a peculiar one. The object in question is a family heirloom, a wristwatch belonging to a man named Lim—abruptly confiscated by the Japanese during the Occupation. 35 years on, word on the street has it that the Japanese stored valuables in a chamber within the automobile factory where Lim worked. Only one problem: nobody can confirm if this secret chamber exists.
When Lim's grandson appeals for Kai to locate the family heirloom, Kai sets out to fulfil Lim's wish……

Parish life centers around worship service on Sunday which includes participation from acolytes, the altar guild, licensed lay readers, and lectors along with a talented music director and choir. Christian education is a priority with focus on Sunday school programs for children and adults. Guest lecturers are an integral part of the adult education program. The EYC meets on Sunday evenings, and they are active in both local and diocesan activities. During Lent, worship services are conducted on Tuesday mornings followed by a breakfast which is prepared by the Men's Group.
Calvary has both an active ECW and Men's Group. The ECW meets informally each month for lunch and quarterly for meetings. The ECW group has formed TLC, tender loving care, groups which serve on a weekly basis to care for parishioners in time of need. The ECW also sponsors a greenery sale which results in money being used for various projects and outreach. The Altar Guild is an extension of the ECW and committee members serve for one month out of the year. ECW members also prepare baptismal banners for each candidate. Another extension of the ECW is the Knitting Group which meets weekly and knits sweaters for the Guidepost's "Knit for Kids" program.
The Men's Group meets for social activities and business meetings. They sponsor two fundraisers each year with the first being the Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper. This event is recognized and participated in by the Cleveland community. The other fundraiser is a hamburger and hot dog booth at the Crosstie Arts Festival. The community looks forward to their "Episco-burgers" each year at this festival. The Men's group uses the money raised to support building projects and outreach. Outreach is a priority of Calvary. One Saturday of each month, parishioners work with the Habitat for Humanity organization on building houses for local residents. This is an ongoing program that has been in place for over 10 years. Other outreach projects include providing personal items to the local homeless shelter, book bags and supplies for school children, and Thanksgiving baskets for needy families. Calvary is a big supporter of the Caritas program, and many children are able to attend because of our support.

This post will help you to design your own templates by using the newly launched feature by the Blogger Team – Template Designer.
|Image © Terence J Sullivan
There are several hundred, in fact thousands of Blogger templates available for free to download and use. But most of the bloggers usually do not find everything they want in these templates and to avoid the hectic tweaks and coding stuff, they finally settle for a template that covers the maximum number of their requirements and compromising on some other features.
But now you can yourself design a complete template for your blog;
To design a unique template for your blog, you have to focus mainly on four aspects of the template:
- Overall template-layout structure :- This is the most important and the basic structure of your template. You can select the one of your choice, from 8 different available options – no sidebar, 1 sidebar (either to left/right), 2 sidebars, a large sidebar – followed by two small sidebars etc. (see below)
You can also adjust the widths of different sections viz. sidebars and the post-area, with a simple drag-tool.
- Footer Layout :- Select 1 or 2 or 3 column layout.
- An attractive Background :- You may use a single large image or a small repeating image as a background-pattern for your blog, or you may simply use a background color instead of images.
- Finally, Styling everything from Header to Footer: Font styles, size and colors for header-text, body-text, widgets-text, footer-text etc.
And it also includes coloring different areas/parts of the blog-template, like central post-body background, header background and outer-wrapper background.
Now the procedure to follow; Make your first self-designed template…
|Blogger Template Designer
Log in to Blogger In Draft and create a NEW test-blog, we'll use this blog to create the template and then the template will be transferred to the original/main blog. Write at least two test-posts with a few test comments.
NOTE: At the time of creating this new test-blog, initially select any blogger template (Minima etc.) randomly.
Go to Layout -> Template Designer.
Now select the template that best matches your taste; with/without header, transparent background etc.
Click on Apply To Blog.
Now again in the Template Designer, go to Layout.
Select the Body Layout, Footer Layout and adjust the widths of different sections (optional).
Click on Apply To Blog.
Now go to the Background tab and select either an image or a color as your blog's background. [Read Step #4 cont. to add a background image of your choice].
Click on Apply To Blog.
Finally adjust the background colors for different areas of the blog, font styles, size and colors etc. from the Advanced section of the Template Designer.
Click on Apply To Blog.
STEP #4 cont…
To manually change the background, go to Dashborad -> Layout -> Edit HTML
and find a code SIMILAR (and NOT exactly the same) to this, in the template:
<Variable name="body.background" description="Body Background" type="background"
color="$(body.background.color)" default="#111111 url(https://themes.googleusercontent.com/image?id=1OACCYOE0-eoTRTfsBuX1NMN9nz599ufI1Jh0CggPFA_sK80AGkIr8pLtYRpNUKPmwtEa) repeat-x fixed top center" value="#111111 url(https://themes.googleusercontent.com/image?id=1OACCYOE0-eoTRTfsBuX1NMN9nz599ufI1Jh0CggPFA_sK80AGkIr8pLtYRpNUKPmwtEa) repeat-x fixed top center"/>
Change the code highlighted in RED, with the DIRECT LINK to the image you want to use as the background image. The code highlighted in BLUE will adjust the position and the characteristics of the image.
Check out the Template designed by me, while writing this tutorial: Sample – New Blogger Template Designer Blog.
That's it…Now you have a new template, entirely customized by you…ready for your actual blog. Download the template from your test-blog and upload it to the main blog. But before you add this template to your main blog, download the template you are currently using in your main blog as a back-up and also read this post to know the correct way of changing templates in Blogger without losing any of your content/widgets.
Impress me with your work and get your blogs displayed here…
