It's a job that starts early in the morning and can last into the night.
The Tennessee Smokies' grounds crew starts around 9 a.m. mowing the field and watering the infield. They make sure the diamond is perfect when the first pitch is thrown out.
"We always monitor for holes especially on the pitching mound and the bullpens and home plate.. the players like to dig in for them to get a grip or the pitchers to push off," said head groundskeeper Anthony DeFeo.
It's DeFeo's first season with the Smokies, but he's been in the business of maintaining fields for around 14 years. It's a passion he found playing Little League.
"The coach would be giving us instructions and I'd be staring at the guy chalking the field and was more interested in that," explained DeFeo.
DeFeo and his crew do everything from chalking the lines, to washing the bases. It's a job that can go unnoticed by the average fan, or even sometimes the players, but there's an up-side too.
"You get to work and watch baseball where as a lot of people they pay to come out here and watch the games and it's part of our job," said DeFeo. "You know it's a great thing."

READY IN: 35mins

Top Review by Chickee
Yummy! I love making muffins because they are so easy, and these were no exception. I love recipes with weight quantities as it's much more exact. I did't do the topping, I wasn't too sure about the cream cooking on top? But I think next time I will. Thanks Amanda for a great recipe! (I'll make the other ones soon too, I was just out of cocoa!)

OK, I've already apologized for predicting Steve Jobs would name his new gadget the iSlate.
It is indeed the iPad, a name I would not have chosen for two reasons. First, as I wrote a week before the announcement, it looks like "iPod" and second, that word "iPad" already has been mocked on Mad TV as sounding too much like the Maxi Pad feminine hygiene product.
It seemed impossible that Apple would choose it, because they know full well how viral humor on the Internet can sway customer perception about a product.
I'm not alone in this, it seems.
This morning there is a backlash against the name that is pretty intense. CNET calls it "cringe-worthy", Gizmodo predicts a slew of Maxi-Pad jokes, and The New York Times says that it makes women "cringe" (there's that word again), reporting that the word "iTampon" is making the rounds across Twitter.
Fast Company is even more succinct: "Apple's iPad Name Not the First Choice for Women. Period." PC World is already counting the "sneers and jeers" on the Internet, wondering if this is a "Venus vs. Mars" issue.
Blogger Anne Althouse, wonders if Apple bothered to check with any women about this one.
Or men. Let's face it, what guy wants to buy a product that sounds like it's a Wi-Fi sanitary napkin?
It also seems that Apple doesn't have any iPad-related domain names yet, either.
As if that was not bad enough, the name also may lead to a big fight with
Since 2002, Fujitsu has been manufacturing a handheld computer called the iPad. Although Fujitsu lost its trademark rights last year, Masahiro Yamane, the PR head of Fujitsu, still believes they have the rights to the iPad name.
All in all, it is really hard to believe that Apple could not have seen this coming. I have rarely seen such quick, vitriolic backlash against a product name. I have never, ever seen such intense mockery aimed at Apple.
And while I am an Apple fan and we are a Mac shop, I might add that their past naming mistakes (cough, Lisa, ahem, Newton) perhaps not coincidentally were attached to doomed products.
Steve, what were you thinking?

Washington DC (SPX) Apr 22, 2014
The Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) recommendations for treating water after a natural disaster or other emergencies call for more chlorine bleach than is necessary to kill disease-causing pathogens and are often impractical to carry out, a new study has found. The authors of the report, which appears in the ACS journal Environmental Science and Technology, suggest that the agency review and revise its guidelines.
Daniele Lantagne, who was at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) at the time of the study and is now at Tufts University, and colleagues note that after natural disasters such as floods, clean water can be scarce. To prevent the spread of water-borne illnesses, the EPA currently recommends "bottle, boil, bleach" in case of a water emergency.
That is, people should turn to bottled water as a first resort. If that's not an option, then they should boil available water to disinfect it.
As a last resort, they should add "1/8 teaspoon (or 8 drops) of regular, unscented, liquid household bleach for each gallon of water." But, as the researchers point out, 1/8 of a teaspoon is not the same as 8 drops. And both amounts are higher than CDC and World Health Organization recommendations.
To further evaluate the guidelines, the team tested different bleach treatment levels at six households around the country using water from various sources.
They found that the range of EPA-recommended doses (8 drops to 1/8 of a teaspoon) were higher than necessary to kill disease-causing pathogens in the samples. In a related project, they reported that even if the guideline were lowered, many people they surveyed would not be able to carry it out.
None had the right kind of bleach in the house, and few had the correct measuring devices. The researchers recommend a revision of EPA guidelines and more research into more practical water treatment products.

Yea, I don't have much hope for DA2 either. There is a little there, but not much. It's still too early to tell, but I certainly do not feel as excited about this game as I did DA:O. I'm not hearing anything about returning to their roots like they kept talking about last time. As a matter of fact they seem to be going in the opposite direction and proud of it. Oh well, I still have indies that will fill in the gap that Bioware might just leave us with.
However with that said, Obsidian stepped up to the plate this time around and hit a homerun on an engine that I didn't think it was possible to make such a good rpg. If Bioware falls then Obsidian and indies will take their place. There still is a market for our type of games and if there is a market then someone will provide them.
Despite all my rage.
I'm still just a rat in a cage.

I have pretty varied interests and like to stay busy while maintaining a well-balanced life. I love small live shows and sweating on the dance floor, but I'm equally as happy for a night in playing poker with friends or talking til sunrise over a bottle of wine/beer/whiskey. I like to stay in shape, though I'm a klutz so it might be a stretch to call me athletic. I definitely enjoy spending a good amount of time outside. Biking is my preferred way to get around the city.
I am perceptive, practical, and prone to distraction
It's fun to think about opening a wine bar/coffee shop/lending library/travel agency something-or-other some day....in the mean time I'd like to fix our food system...
movies: drive, jiro dreams of sushi, bridesmaids, before sunset/sunrise, waking life, eternal sunshine of a spotless mind, little miss sunshine, garden state, across the universe, the sandlot
shows (on dvd/netflix of course): parks and rec, 30 rock, arrested development, damages, louie, west wing, law and order svu...
music: polica, phantogram, the black keys, common, feist, mala rodriguez, chambao, vanessa da mata, marisa monte, john legend, gotan project, portishead, thievery corporation, rjd2, chairlift, radiohead...anything with a good beat
food: when i'm cooking i love me some one-pot-wonders...dining out i'll try pretty much anything...thai, vietnamese, indian are some favorites, as well as the classics
a decent red or white wine
a moleskin notebook
a nytimes crossword
my wine key
i'm not really sure that i'm looking to get into something at the moment, but i am always interested in making connections with fun, intelligent, like-minded people. in terms of what i look for in a partner, i tend to go for driven, well-rounded, independent women with a good sense of humor. interest in food and wine would definitely be a plus.


text: NEW DELHI- Pakistan is ready to talk to any government elected by the Indian voters, including one headed by Narendra Modi, Advisor to the Prime Minister on security and foreign affairs Sartaj Aziz said."We are ready to do business with any leader, including Modi,'' Aziz said in a telephone interview from London with Hindustan Times. When asked about Pakistan Army Chief's comments on Kashmir issue, Sartaj Aziz said that was our standing position. "Kashmir is an issue that both India and Pakistan need to negotiate and remains on the dialogue table but if statements are made during the course of your elections about Kashmir being an atoot ang (integral part) of India, there will be reactions and responses," Aziz said.Backing his statement that indicated Pakistan's willingness to work with Modi, Aziz emphasized that the last time there was any real progress between the two neighbours was "under a BJP-led government with Vajpayee as PM.'' Vajpayee, in 1999, had undertaken a bus journey across the Wagah border to Lahore when Nawaz Sharif was the PM of Pakistan. The two had signed the Lahore declaration in which both countries committed themselves to ''intensify their efforts to resolve all issues, including the issue of Jammu and Kashmir.'' In the declaration, both also agreed to confidence-building measures in the nuclear and conventional military fields.Reiterating his government's desire for normalizing ties with India, Aziz said, "Peace with India was Nawaz Sharif's poll plank and he launched his peace mission immediately after becoming PM. In fact, he told me that he was taking up peace as a poll issue so it will help him once he comes to power. We had a good start with Manmohan Singh and now look forward to restarting the dialogue once a new government is in place in Delhi."

A street drug called krokodil or crocodile has made its way to the United States. Its real name is desomorphine and it is similar to morphine and heroin. Krokodil gets its street name from the fact that it turns users' skin scaly and causes rough patches to break out all over the body. It also eats its victims alive, just like a crocodile.
Although krokodil is new to the United States, it has been around for several years and originated in Russia. Users found that it was cheaper than meth but had similar effects. It can also be made with simple ingredients.
Two cases of people addicted to the drug have been reported in Arizona. "As far as I know, these are the first cases in the United States," said Dr. Frank LoVecchio, director at Banner Good Samaritan Poison and Drug Information Center in Arizona, as quoted by Fox News. "So we're extremely frightened."
The drug is injected into the body with a needle. The skin around the injection site can immediately start to turn rough and scaly as it breaks down and begins to decay. Gangrene can easily set in and many addicts have to have amputations just a few years after they start using the drug.
Krokodil is so damaging that even those who are able to recover from addiction and stop taking the drug can be left permanently disfigured and scarred. Aside from cosmetic damage, many users lose control of their motor skills and develop speech problems.
"This is really frightening," Dr. Aaron Skolnik, a toxicologist at Banner Good Samaritan Poison and Drug Information Center in Phoenix, told Fox News. "This is something we hoped would never make it to the U.S. because it's so detrimental to the people who use it."

Dr Koo fixed a hernia of mine about 12 years ago. I went to him because he did the procedure laproscopically, as opposed to open. I found him and his staff friendly and very competent, dealing deftly with my ""difficult" anatomy. My recovery went as he described. I am thankful.

Don't Let Him Touch You!
Dr Koo performed surgery on my best friend about 18 months ago. He removed her gall bladder and also cut out her bile duct accidentally. He sewed her back up and sent her home. She almost died from all of the bile in her stomach. She has had to have several surgeries to correct his mistake and suffers from liver infections and constantly feeling ill. He needs to be forced to retire.

Don't let him touch you
I went to the emergency room and had a CT. He said my bowel was dead or dying and I needed emergency surgery right away. WRONG. There was nothing wrong when he you got in there. I was also released with no antibiotics and ended up back in the hospital 2 days later with an infection. Ended up with incision being reopened. Spent 6 weeks in the hospital and in a lot of pain. Off work for 4 months.

My husbands surgery
Dr. Koo remove 8 inches of his colon in 2009.He did not reattach the colon normally. He released him from the hospital with an infection in the surgery area. He ended back in the hospital within a week really sick. As it was my husband got a rupture as big as a grapefruit. He ended up having surgery to remove the rupture also reconstructive surgery on the colon to repair the damage Dr. Koo caused. He also lost more of his colon because of the screw up the doctor did. My husband has never been right since then. He has a bulging belly because of it. Always will. I would have sued Koo except I did not want to involve the hospital or the other doctor that was in the same office as it wasn't there fault. No one should ever let this doctor touch them as they may not survive. I wish I would have sued him now.

Do Not let him operate on you!
He "acidentally" cut out my spleen, I almost died, and I was in ICU for a week. Then he "accidentally" cut 4 inches of my colon. I had an internal infection in my body cavity that almost killed me, ended up with a colonoscopy bag,and was in ICU for another week. He did not correct the problem with my stomach that was the reason for the Original operation!

A MAN who breached his anti-social behaviour order again has been spared jail.
David Newton, aged 44, of Victoria Street, Ramsbottom, was given his first ASBO in 2011 after causing trouble in Ramsbottom town centre.
He was given a second ASBO last October by Bury magistrates, banning him from playing music and entering certain shops and pubs.
A month later, Newton annoyed his neighbours by playing loud music and also used foul language to staff at Morrison's supermarket — which resulted in him serving a 16-week jail term imposed by Bury magistrates.
Newton appeared back before the bench last week where he admitted breaching the ASBO by being drunk in public and playing loud music.
Magistrates gave him one last chance, by sentencing him to two months in prison, suspended for a year, and a 12-month supervision order.

We're currently less than $15,000 away from the funding goal, with 7 days to go. It will take some doing to meet the goal, but it's hardly impossible--remember, Sportsfriends raised its final $20,000 in the last day of its campaign! We just need to pull in some larger backers to make it happen for us here.
To help out, my friend Lars Doucet--creator of the excellent RPG Defender's Quest--has generously donated 200 copies of both Defender's Quest and the (also excellent) Defender's Quest soundtrack for me to give away. So here's the deal: the first 200 backers to pledge at or above $100 will get a free copy of both Defender's Quest and the Defender's Quest soundtrack on top of all other rewards!
There are already 12 backers in the $100-and-up category, which means that there are 188 spots left for folks to participate in the giveaway. Come and get it before they're all snatched up!

Out now
After a brief period of reflection on '4 In The Morning', Gwen Stefani is back to her happy go lucky best. Here she's experimenting with reggae, and she's got Damien Marley - son of reggae legend Bob Marley - to help her out.
'Now That U Got It' is a very laid back, summery tune. Even the video is set on a beach - which makes you wonder why it's being released in the autumn!
Gwen is telling her man that even though he's got her, he still has to work hard to keep her and give her everything she wants.
Definitely - the chorus is catchy, to the point of being incredibly annoying!
It's not one of Gwen's best, but her songs are always massive hits.
"I think this song is really chilled. I've watched the music video hundreds of times on TV and I think it's the best song she's ever done."
Lydia, 10, Bromsgrove, England
"I love it, I listen to it every morning."
Scarlett, 11, Bristol, England
"This song is brilliant, it's great music for all sorts of people and it's another amazing track by Gwen Stefani."
Katie, 12, Ipswich, England

The connection of the holy city with the earth; the river of God and the tree of life; the source of blessing in God's constant presence; His servants reigning for ever and ever
The connection of the holy city with the earth, though not on it, is everywhere seen. The river of God refreshed the city, and the tree of life, whose fruits ever ripe were food for the celestial inhabitants of it, bore in its leaves healing for the nations. Only the glorified ever ate the fruit of constant growth; but what was manifested and displayed without, as the leaves of a tree, was blessing to those on earth. We see grace characterising the assembly in glory. The nation and kingdom that will not serve the earthly Jerusalem shall utterly perish -- it preserves its earthly royal character; the assembly its own: the leaves of the tree it feeds on are for healing. There is no more curse. The throne of God and the Lamb is in it. This is the source of blessing, not of curse; and His servants serve Him; often they cannot as they would here. Note too again here, how God and the Lamb are spoken of as one, as constantly in John's writings. His servants shall have the fullest privilege of His constant presence, shall see His face, and their belonging to Him as His own be evident to all. There is no night there, nor need of light, for the Lord God gives it; and, as to their state, they reign, not for the thousand years, as they do over the earth, but for ever and ever.
This closes the description of the heavenly city and the whole prophetic volume. What follows consists of warning, or the final expression of the thoughts of, and relationship with, Christ of the assembly.
Those concerned are warned to keep the sayings of the book because of Christ's near return; John's worship of the angel refused; when the book closed its testimony men would remain in the same state for judgment or blessing; Christ would quickly come
The angel declares the truth of these things, and that the Lord God of the prophets -- not as the God and Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, nor as directly teaching the assembly as dwelling in it by the Spirit -- the Lord God of the prophets has sent His angel to inform His servants of these events. "Behold," says Christ, speaking as of old, in the prophetic spirit, rising up to His now personal testimony, "Behold, I come quickly. Blessed is he who keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book." The assembly is viewed, not as the subject of prophecy, but as "the things that are," time not being counted, specially time to come. Those that keep it are those concerned in the book, who are warned that Christ will soon be there. No doubt we all can profit by it, but we are not in the scenes it speaks of. John, impressed with the dignity of the messenger, fell down and would have worshipped him. But the saints of the assembly, even if made prophets of, were not to return into the uncertainty of ancient days. The angel was a simple angel, John's fellow-servant, and fellow-servant of his brethren the prophets: he was to worship God. Nor were the sayings to be sealed, as with Daniel: the time was at hand. When it closed its testimony, men would remain in the same state for judgment or blessing. And Christ would quickly come, and every man receive as his work was. Verse 7 was a warning, in form of blessing, to those in the circumstances referred to, to keep the sayings of the book, but this verse 12 is the record of Christ's coming to the general judgment of the quick.
Christ announced Himself as God before and after all; the blessing of the redeemed, cleansed ones; the bright and morning Star
Finally, Christ announces Himself, having taken up the word in Person in verse 12, as Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end -- God before and after all; and filling duration. I suppose we are to take as the true reading: "Blessed are they that wash their robes, that they may have a right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city." The redeemed, cleansed ones, can enter there and feed on the tree of life; for I suppose it is the fruit here. Without are the unclean and violent, and those who love satanic falsehood and idolatry, sin against purity, against their neighbour, against God, and follow Satan.
This closes the summing up. The Lord Jesus now reveals Himself in His own Person, speaking to John and the saints, and declares who He is, in what character He appears to say it to them. "I am the root and offspring of David" -- the origin and heir of the temporal promises of Israel; but much more than that -- He is the bright and morning Star. It is what He is before He appears, in both respects; only the former regards Israel born of the seed of David according to the flesh. But the Lord has taken another character. He has not yet arisen as the Sun of righteousness on this benighted globe; but, to faith, the dawn is there, and the assembly sees Him in the now far spent night as the morning Star, knows Him, while watching according to His own word, in His bright heavenly character -- a character which does not wake a sleeping world, but is the delight and joy of those who watch. When the sun arises, He will not be thus known: the earth will never so know Him, bright as the day may be. When Christ is in this place, the Spirit dwells in the assembly below, and the assembly has its own relationship. It is the bride of Christ, and her desire is toward Him.
The cry of the Spirit and the bride; our common hope and desire; the invitation to "whosoever will" to come
Thus "the Spirit and the bride say, Come." It is not a warning from one coming as a judge and a rewarder, but the revelation of Himself which awakens the desire of the bride according to the relationship in which grace has set her. Nor is it a mere sentiment or wish: the Spirit who dwells in the assembly leads and suggests her thought. But the Spirit turns also, and the heart of him who enjoys the relationship, to others. "Let him that heareth" -- let him who hears the voice of the Spirit in the assembly -- join in the cry, and say, Come. It is one common hope, it should be our common desire; and the sense of what is coming on the earth, and the sense of failure in things that are, ought only, though it be in truth an inferior motive, to urge the cry in all. But while still here, the saint has another place also. Not only do his desires go after God upwards and the heavenly Bridegroom, but he reflects God's known character, by having His nature and Spirit as manifested also in Christ's love, and in possession of the living water, though not of the Bridegroom. He turns round and invites others, "Let him that is athirst come," and proclaims it forth then to the world, "Whosoever will, let him take of the water of life freely." Thus the whole place of the heavenly saint, conscious of the assembly's place, is brought out in this verse, from his desire of Christ's coming, to his call to whosoever will to come.
Warning to preserve the integrity of the book; Christ's cheering assurance; the saint's response; the promise and the desire and the last words of Jesus on the heart
The integrity of the book is preserved by a solemn warning of the danger of losing a part in the tree of life* and the holy city. Christ then cheers the saint's heart, by assuring that He would quickly come; and the heart of the true saint responds with unfeigned and earnest desire, "Even so, come, Lord Jesus." And then, with the salutation of grace, the book closes, leaving the promise and the desire as the last words of Jesus on the heart.
{*The true reading here is "tree," not "book"; but the book of life is not life, nor is our being written there final, though a prima facie register, unless indeed written there before the foundation of the world: but, even so, it is not the same thing as the possession of life.}
The conscious position of the saints given at the beginning and end of the book
Let the reader note here that, in the beginning and end of the book, before and after the prophetic statements, we have in a beautiful way the conscious position of the saints.
The first, at the opening of the whole book, gives the individual conscious blessing through what Christ has done; the latter, the whole position of the assembly, thus distinguishing clearly the saints under the gospel from those whose circumstances are prophetically made known to them in this book. "Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, and made us kings and priests to God and his Father." As soon as Christ is named (and it is so in both cases), it awakens in the saints the consciousness of Christ's love and their own place in relationship with Him. They are already washed from their sins in His own blood, and made kings and priests to God and His Father -- have their place and state fixed, before any of the prophetic part is developed, and in the coming kingdom will enjoy that place, not of being blessed under Christ, but of being associated with Him. Here they have their place simply in the kingdom and priesthood; it is individual title resulting from His first coming. They are loved, washed in His own blood, and associated with Him in the kingdom.
Christ as the morning Star; the assembly drawn out in active love; the desire of the Spirit and the bride for Christ's second coming; the Spirit's call
At the end of the book, Christ is revealed as the morning Star, a place forming no part of the prophecy, but that in which the assembly, who has waited for Him, is associated with Him for herself, and the kingdom (compare the promise to the overcomers in Thyatira).* This draws out active love (not as before, simply being loved and what we are made) -- love first directed towards Christ in the assembly's known relation to Himself, then to the saints who hear, then to the thirsty, then to all the world. The desire of the assembly, as the bride with whom the Spirit is, is directed to Christ's second coming for herself -- to the possessing the morning Star; then the Spirit turns to the saints, calling on them to say to Jesus, Come -- to join in this desire. But we have the Spirit though not the Bridegroom; hence whoever is athirst is called on to come and drink, and thus the gospel proclaimed abroad, "Whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely." It is love acting in the saint all round from Christ to sinners in the world.
{*Compare the place of the bright cloud in Luke 9. There it is the Father's voice}Synopsis by John Darby

WVU to Rely on Youth This Season
John Antonik
October 22, 2013 11:53 AM
KANSAS CITY - West Virginia coach Bob Huggins, sporting a collegiate look in his navy blue West Virginia University letterman's sweater, was asked during Tuesday's Big 12 media day session about his latest fashion statement.
"Really good looking, isn't it?" Huggins joked. "I'd figure I'd be the (former Eastern Kentucky coach) Max Good of the Big 12. I was in OVC with Max and every year he'd come in with an entirely different look, so I just figured I'd do it."
Joking aside, Huggins soon got down to the matter at hand, which was to talk about this year's remodeled basketball team that features most of its experienced players in the backcourt.
Based on the players Huggins chose to bring with him out here to Kansas City –guards
Terry Henderson
Eron Harris
Juwan Staten
– West Virginia figures to rely heavily on perimeter play this year.
"Well, we've gone from, I think, trying to ineffectively throw it inside to we're going to be more of a perimeter team," Huggins said. "There are a few fun things left in this business, and I think one of them is to watch people mature."
Of course he's talking about the development of Harris and Henderson – two sophomores with potentially big-time scoring capabilities for WVU this season. Harris became the first freshman since 1973 to lead the Mountaineers in scoring last year with a 9.8 points-per-game average, while Henderson averaged 8 points per contest and was second in the Big 12 in 3-point shooting at 46 percent.
Harris went for a season-high 25 in a home loss to Baylor and also had 23 coming down the stretch against Oklahoma while Henderson topped the 20-point mark three times, including a team-high 23 in a road loss to eventual NCAA runner-up Michigan in New York City.
"Those guys went from being very shy, skinny little guys to know knowing what to do and kind of being not very assertive to taking a leadership role," said Huggins. "We don't have any seniors, and we only have five returning guys, so those five guys kind of have to assume a leadership role for us."
Watching two young players blossom right in front of your eyes can make any old ball coach feel a little bit younger, says Huggins.
"It's kind of fun watching those two young guys grow into that role of helping the younger guys with the things that I think they struggled with maybe initially a year ago," said Huggins. "But they're both talented guys and they're both really good guys so we look for them to have big years for us."
Last year was certainly not a big year for West Virginia basketball in its inaugural season in the Big 12 Conference, the Mountaineers dipping below .500 for the first time since 2003 when John Beilein was in his first year rebuilding the program. Huggins said there were certainly lessons learned in 2012.
"I think people assumed since I've been in the league for a year that I kind of knew what was going on," he said. "I was kind of hoping that I did. But it was an entirely different league when I was there (at Kansas State). We had a north division and a south division and you played everybody in the north twice and played the south once.
"The travel was harder than what we thought it was going to be," he continued. "I think the commissioner (Bob Bowlsby) and everybody in the league have done a great job of trying to make it as painless as you can possibly make flying four hours painless. But the whole league is different."
Huggins pointed out some clear differences between the Big 12 and the Big East - the conference West Virginia was formerly a member of.
"Let's be honest, officiating in this league compared to the officiating in the Big East was night and day," he said. "The atmospheres were night and day. You go from a league where you play maybe half of your games in NBA arenas that are downtown, away from campus, and you don't have the student involvement that you have in the Big 12. I think the atmospheres in the Big 12 are far tougher to play in than they are in the leagues where you don't have to play on campus.
"So there was, I think, a great deal of adjustment for not just the coaches, but I think the players as well."
Mountaineer teams in the past typically had great fan support whenever they went on the road to play in the Big East. Because of the great distances the team is traveling in the Big 12 now, that has clearly changed a little bit.
"Before in the Big East, because we were an hour flight away, and four- or five-hour drive and because we had so many alumni up and down the East Coast everywhere we went, we had a tremendous following," Huggins explained. "In this league, it's really hard and we don't have the alumni base that we have in the East."
West Virginia has two more weeks of preseason prep work before facing Fairmont State in its only preseason game on Nov. 4 at the Coliseum.
The Mountaineers open the regular season four days later against Mount St. Mary's at the Coliseum on Nov. 8.
The early part of the season will also feature games against Duquesne, Virginia Tech, Georgia Southern and Presbyterian before the Mountaineers travel to Cancun, Mexico to play two games there in the Cancun Challenge.
West Virginia opens Big 12 play on the road at TCU and Texas Tech on Jan. 4-6.

Juwan Staten
Kansas and Oklahoma State were predicted to finish first in the Big 12 preseason media poll announced earlier this month.
Baylor, Iowa State, Kansas State and Oklahoma round out the top six, with West Virginia, Texas, Texas Tech and TCU completing the poll.
Oklahoma State guard Marcus Smart was tabbed preseason player of the year while the Kansas duo of Tarik Black, a Memphis transfer, and Andrew Wiggins were named preseason newcomer and freshman of the year respectively.
Wiggins and Smart were named to the preseason all-Big 12 team. Joining them were Baylor's Austin and Jefferson, Iowa State's Ejim and Oklahoma State's Brown.
8:45 AM Update
- Three major points of emphasis this year from the NCAA Men's Basketball Rules Committee:
The rules committee is concerned that various types of handchecking on a player with the ball drastically reduces the dribbler's ability to beat his man to create scoring opportunities.
Freedom of Movement:
The rules committee continues to express concern that the rules relating to a player's ability to move with or without the ball are being neglected by officials, resulting in more physical play and less opportunity for scoring.
Block/Charge Plays:
After reviewing tape of numerous block/charge plays, the committee is concerned about the number of incorrect calls made. The committee has asked that an educational process be undertaken to improve the officiating calls on block/charge plays.
8:55 AM Update
- Something you just don't see every day: Huggs posing for a picture with Big 12 coordinator of officials Curtis Shaw prior to the coach taking the stage for his media session at the Sprint Center.
Shaw took the stage immediately following Huggins to address some of the new rules being adopted this year.
- Huggs on the transition to a new league last season … "I think people assumed since I've been in the league for a year that I kind of knew what was going on. I was kind of hoping that I did. But it was an entirely different league when I was there.
"We had a north division and a south division, and you played everybody in the north twice and played the south once.
"The travel was harder than what we thought it was going to be. I think the commissioner and everybody in the league have done a great job of trying to make it as painless as you can possibly make flying four hours painless. The whole league is different."
9:45 AM Update
- A popular topic of discussion here today has been the reported five-game suspension handed down by the NCAA to Missouri coach Frank Haith for what happened when he was coaching at Miami.
Baylor's Scott Drew was asked if he thought what happened to Haith will make coaches more cautious about who they allow around their programs … "I think every college coach tries to do as good a job as they can in trying to protect the program and making sure that we're not putting our players in harms way," he said.
"Unfortunately we can't be with everybody 24/7, and there has to be some trust. That's why it's great the more the rules are explained, compliance offices are able to let the incoming recruits know that stuff just so you don't jeopardize someone's eligibility."
Bob Huggins was also asked about the Haith situation … "It's really a double-edged sword because you want your guys to meet some people that are going to be beneficial to them down the road – potential employers, people who have contacts, people who can make calls and people who are going to be references. At the same time, you're supposed to stay away from those very people," said Huggins.
"It's a fine line I think we all walk to try to do the right things by the kids, because the right thing really is for those kids to get to know people that are going to help them down the road and in the future. But at the same time, don't get too involved because then you cross over that line."
9:50 AM Update
- Kansas true freshman Andrew Wiggins is clearly a popular interview subject at this year's media day. The fact that Kansas brought the nation's No. 1 recruit to Kansas City today could mean that he is likely going to be a one-and-done player.
One other quick observation about some of the players here today ... The last two years I've been to Kansas City Baylor clearly has the biggest players. Isaiah Austin looks every bit his 7-foot-1 listing and Cory Jefferson is easily 6-foot-9. Kansas' Tarik Black, TCU's Karviar Shepherd and Texas' Connor Lammert are the only other bigs at this year's media day.
10:20 AM Update
-Oklahoma coach Lon Kruger's thoughts on the Big 12 this year … "Everyone thinks their league is great and ours is no different," he said. "Obviously a lot of new players and that's exciting. There will be some turnover in terms of rosters in some cases, in other cases a pretty good chunk of minutes returning.
"But when you look at the roster with Kansas, Oklahoma State, Baylor and all the returning people, I think they understandably are thought to be at the top of the league in the preseason expectations. But then, I think we have great balance after that.
"It will be an interesting race as all of the conferences are. Everyone has their expectations and predictions early. To see how those either become a reality or not is exciting to watch that."
11:10 AM Update
- TCU coach Trent Johnson is encouraged with the group of newcomers he brought in this year, including touted 6-foot-10-inch freshman center Karviar Shepherd of Dallas … "We're much improved from a skill-level standpoint," said Johnson. "We're much improved from size and strength. Last year we had too many coaches on the floor to try and compete and play to just basically get through the year and through the season.
"My optimism is based off of the facts, and the facts are you should shoot the ball better and play at a faster tempo. I understand our scrimmage last year at this time – scoreless with six minutes to go – this year it was 65-59, so I shut it down with about seven minutes (remaining)."
11:47 AM Update
- Oklahoma State joins Kansas as one of the preseason favorites to win the Big 12. The Cowboys split first place votes this year with the Jayhawks, based primarily on the return of sophomore guard Marcus Smart – considered one of the nation's top returning players.
"We understand the expectations of this team," said Oklahoma State coach Travis Ford. "Our guys hear it every day from the fans and the media and the positive things that are said, and we've embraced it in the fact that, yes, we thing we have a pretty decent team. But we have to be humble enough to handle it and hungry enough to get a little bit better each day."
In order to reach their lofty goals this season, Ford concedes that his team is going to have to shoot the ball better from the perimeter.
"At this point in time, practice has been one of our strengths, shooting the basketball," said Ford. "Marcus is shooting the ball really well. Markel Brown is shooting the ball really well, Brian Williams. We have some freshmen that have come in and their strengths are shooting the ball, between Stevie Clark and Jeffrey Carroll, these are some really knock-down shooters on our basketball team. And Phil Forte is probably one of the best shooters in America."
12:19 PM Update
- Tubby Smith on why he chose to coach at Texas Tech so soon after getting let go at Minnesota … "Well, first, when you're fired from a job you never expect that. I've been in the business for 39 years, and you provide a service for programs and communities and universities, so we did the best that we could.
"Now, I think we've done it the right way over the years so I wanted to take some time. But sometimes it doesn't go that way," he said. "What happened was I get a call maybe the next day or two days after I was let go in Minnesota by the folks at Texas Tech, and it's good to be wanted. Certainly, I feel like it's an opportunity. They have a need there, and they wanted some stability and some continuity. Certainly the commitment is there by the administration at Texas Tech, so that's sort of how it happened."

Eid-ul-Adha has just wrapped up, Hanukkah is about to begin and Christmas is right around the corner. It's time to give thanks to the divine culinary diversity with which Vancouver is blessed.
First, a confession: In my hunger to feast at as many different tables as possible this year, I haven't been as vigilant as I should in following the one style of dining at which our city truly excels - the Japanese izakaya.
When foodies from elsewhere descend on our shores, they are often flabbergasted, delightfully so, by the seemingly avant-garde, tapas-sized dishes served at these boisterous gastro-pubs.
But after you've lived here long enough, these ubiquitous eateries tend to fade into the woodwork. So when Irashai Grill opened in Coal Harbour last winter, I pretty much ignored it. I wasn't even lured in this summer, when the restaurant did a publicity push, touting itself as a modern, high-end izakaya that was different from all the rest by virtue of its "inventive dining options" inspired by classic French and Italian techniques.
As regular readers will know, I'm highly suspicious of fusion cuisine.
And this grab-bag description hardly inspired much confidence, especially when I finally walked in one Friday night and found myself in the middle of what looked like a sports bar.
The room certainly is modern, what with its soaring ceilings, neon lights and hot-red leather booths. And it is busy, at least in the front lounge, which is packed with hockey fans watching the Canucks game on a bevy of wide-screen TVs.
The dining room, separated from the bar by a wide, glass wine cabinet, is more subdued. Shimmery drapes and thick carpeting do a capable job of muffling the noise. But the so-called upscale ambience is spoiled by two additional TV sets that are annoyingly distracting, even though they're turned to mute.
No one shouts " Irasshaimase," the customary greeting at an izakaya. Then again, none of the staff here, save the executive chef, is Japanese. The rest are Chinese, including the owners. While some say Chinese ownership of a Japanese restaurant is a clear warning to stay away, these proprietors do have a decent track record. For 15 years, they've operated the casual Irashai Sushi in Kerrisdale, which still attracts nightly lineups.
Executive chef Ikoma Kenjiro's bio is still awfully vague. Even after I ask for elaboration, the publicist says only that he began his culinary training in Japan, where he worked at unnamed French and Italian restaurants for more than 13 years. General Manager Ray Mok apparently practised East-West fusion cuisine in some of Hong Kong's "finest" (also unspecified) establishments.
We put their "collaborative union" to the litmus test by starting with gomaae ($4.50), an ostensibly simple side dish that can quickly determine if a Japanese kitchen is hitting high or cutting corners.
Is the spinach bright green, barely wilted and well drained? Check. Are the sesame seeds freshly toasted to release their natural oils and nutty aroma (check), finely ground (check) and blended with just enough sugar and soy to create a creamy, semi-sweet paste that is neither lumpy nor watery (check, check, check). Irashai Grill passes with flying colours.
Now for something a wee bit different. Daikon salad ($7) looks fairly traditional, with its ribboned slivers of white radish and carrot, topped by a delicate tangle of peppery radish sprouts. But rather than being pickled in rice vinegar, the vegetables are lightly splashed with a Pommery-mustard dressing that tastes comparatively weak and restrained. Mind you, the salad is served as its own course, not a palate cleanser on the side, so perhaps it needn't be as sharply astringent.
As part of Irashai Grill's "five-star experience at three-star prices," service is staggered, Western-style. The dishes are presented one at a time and all artistically plated on oversized flatware that would make it fairly impossible to pile the table high, as is typical in a more casual izakaya, even if you wanted to eat that way.
Gindara yuan yaki ($14) proves the chef really does know his way around a French kitchen. This beautifully moist, perfectly grilled piece of sablefish is robed in a creamy, finely emulsified yuzu-miso beurre blanc. The tartly citric yuzu fruit, which is also zested overtop, is an inspired touch that balances the fish's rich oiliness without overpowering its delicate flavour.
The chef's not bad at Italian fusion either. The sauce for spaghettini alio olio ($15) is boosted with pesto and a teeny splash of soy. (I always add stock to my own, so I appreciate the depth of flavour.) And the noodles are as toothsomely tender as the plump prawns and scallops they're tossed with.
Aigamo duck ($16) is less successful. The seared breast is served with a nice teriyaki reduction that tastes like it's been sweetly goosed with mirin. But aigamo, a cross between a domestic duck and a wild mallard, needs more that just a quick tataki-style flash in the pan to render the fat and tenderize the meat - unless you happen to enjoy extremely chewy textures.
But it isn't until we arrive at the sushi rolls that I'm truly blown away.
We order the poison spider volcano roll ($14) almost as a joke. The combination of asparagus, soft-shell crab and cream cheese, baked under a melted blanket of orange cheese squiggled with a super spicy red miso sauce, sounds absolutely atrocious. This roll really shouldn't work. Yet it does, amazingly well. The heat of the sauce cuts through the cheesy richness. And the crunchy asparagus makes a beautifully grassy foil to the sweet brininess of the deep-fried crab. The cream cheese is fairly innocuous, except on the ends of the roll where it's slathered a little too thick.
All in all, I'm impressed. This is the dish I keep raving about to skeptical friends for weeks afterwards - well, this and the excellent green-tea crème brûlée.
By the time we ask for the bill, the hockey game is over and the place has cleared out. Most of the staff members have changed into their civvies and are discussing which late-night bar they're all headed to later.
Although I'm reluctant to call Irashai Grill a high-end restaurant, it does clearly offer a "new experience" in Vancouver's repertoire of Japanese-fusion cuisine that is more refined than most.

Re my recent post on differentiated instruction, a reader named Ed posted a compelling response:
Teaching their peers? Are they nuts!I've been thinking a lot about bullying lately because it has become such a ubiquitous topic. Are kids really more mean spirited than they were a generation ago? Or do they simply have more opportunities to be mean?
The bullying I received when my teacher tried that because they couldn't find things for me to do.
Plus kids "love" being taught by the geek in the room.
Thanks to smartphones and "social" media like Facebook and Twitter one can bully anyone anytime and anywhere, even those who do all they can to avoid their tormentors, disseminating insults and gossip to a limitless virtual audience of gawking peers. Particularly lethal--literally so--are doctored images and fake Facebook pages.
A far less appreciated source of growing opportunity, as I've argued earlier, is the growing time that students spend working in groups at school. Ironically, some bullying experts view cooperative group work as a way to remedy bullying, but given that bullying (especially when it takes the form of teasing and shunning) can be subtle and difficult to detect, and given that teachers cannot supervise multiple groups simultaneously, group activities often have the opposite effect. Particularly problematic, as Ed suggests, are the increasingly fashionable mixed-ability groups.
Today's anti-bullying measures can backfire in other ways. Socially savvy kids can take advantage of zero tolerance policies and subtly goad a more socially clueless peer into lashing out. The victim rather than the perpetrator is then the one who gets punished. In whole class discussions in which children are supposed to share their experiences with bullying, the victims may be too uncomfortable to do so, especially if those experiences involved subtle, difficult-to-articulate forms of bullying like shunning, and especially if the vicctims expect subtle reprisals from peers once the adults are out of earshot.
It's the socially aloof kids, of course, who are most often the true victims. Has the rise in autistic spectrum disorders caused bullying to increase? Perhaps, but a rise in the numbers of organically socially savvy kids may be just as responsible. One of the more compelling reasons for the rise in Asperger's Syndrome, in particular, is the "assortative mating theory." This holds that, where today's mobile, densely interconnected humans are concerned, birds of a feather increasingly mate together. That is, instead of marrying the boy down the street, you're more likely to marry the boy in your chosen field who shares, say, your analytical interests and distaste for small talk; or your social charms and love of parties. One result, commonly cited by such autism researchers as Simon Baron-Cohen, may be a concentration of autism-related genes. The much less commonly cited flipside is a concentration of sociability-related genes. The likely result? A widening spread of children across the spectrum from socially-aloof to socially-savvy. More victims, yes, but also (among the more mean-spirited of the highly socially-savvy), more sophisticated and powerful perpetrators.

The Amur tiger needs large prey to survive, and its main prey species are ungulates - wild boar, sika deer and red deer. In the summer tigers may prey on smaller animals such as badgers, and raccoon dogs. Bears comprise about 3% of the tiger's diet in the Russian Far East. There are rare cases on record of adult brown bears being killed and eaten by Amur tigers. Brown bear cubs are killed more often (indicating that male tigers can drive away the defending mother bear) and the smaller Himalayan black bear also appears on the Amur tiger's menu.
ALTA Amur tiger conservation
In association with Sikhote-Alin Zapovednik (Reserve) staff, WCS has been studying the ecology of Amur tigers with telemetry techniques in and around the Sikhote Alin reserve since 1992 under the joint Russian-American Siberian Tiger Project, which has provided extensive ecological information needed for conservation planning. WCS also has led the annual Amur tiger population monitoring programme for the last 10 years, designed to serve as an early warning system for declines in the population. Because the vast majority of Amur tiger habitat (>85%) is held as multiple-use lands, many of which are leased by local hunting associations, WCS works with hunting leases to improve capacity to manage ungulates (tigers' main prey) and protect tigers, as well as to provide economic incentives for tiger conservation. WCS invests significant efforts in supporting Russian graduate students and young scientists specializing in wildlife and conservation biology, and also supports tiger conservation and recovery work in Northeast China, including anti-poaching, education, protected area management and monitoring efforts.
Phoenix implements a large number of projects for the conservation of Amur tigers, its prey and habitat, including tiger festivals, establishment of eco-centres in schools, media projects, anti-poaching teams and teams combating illegal logging. Phoenix and WCS also work jointly to support the ability of the federal government agency "Inspection Tiger" to resolve tiger-human conflict situations.
Additional information about the Amur tiger can be found on the websites of ALTA members, including Tigris Foundation , 21st Century Tiger , WCS and Phoenix Fund.

SASC Adds Funds for ORS, STP and Commercial Imagery Purchase
The Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC) completed markup of its version of the FY2013 National Defense Authorization Act yesterday. Among its actions, SASC added funds for the Operationally Responsive Space (ORS) program and Space Test Program (STP) as well as for the government to purchase commercial satellite imagery.
Overall, the committee kept the total funding authorized in its version of the bill (S. 2467) to the same level requested by the Obama Administration, unlike the companion measure (H.R. 4310) passed by the House on May 18, which is $4 billion above the request.
Among the many changes to the President's request within that topline, the committee added money to and changed the reporting structure of the Operationally Responsive Space (ORS) program instead of eliminating the program as the Obama Administration proposed. SASC also directed that money be transferred into ORS from DOD's now-cancelled Defense Weather Satellite System so the ORS program can develop a low cost weather satellite instead. According to the committee's press release, its bill --
The House authorization bill added $25 million for ORS (the request was zero), but does not include the other provisions.
As for STP, which the Obama Administration also wants to end, SASC added $35 million to the $10 million requested, identical to the House authorization action.
The House Appropriations Committee, however, did not restore funding for either program. The Senate Appropriations Committee has not acted on its bill yet.
SASC also added $125 million for the government to purchase commercial satellite imagery from GeoEye and DigitalGlobe to keep funding level at FY2012 levels, according to the press release. SASC also is requiring a study by the Joint Staff and the Congressional Budget Office "on the requirements for, and the role of, commercial imagery." Rumors have been rampant that cuts are in store for the EnhancedView contract under which the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) purchases imagery from the two companies, whose business prospects are highly dependent on the arrangement. NGA's budget is classified, so detailed information has been difficult to obtain. Both companies reported earlier this month that their FY2012 EnhancedView funding was secure, but GeoEye's sudden public offer to buy DigitalGlobe, almost immediately rebuffed, fueled concern that the companies' government funding beyond FY2012 was in jeopardy.
Other space-related provisions mentioned in SASC's press release include the following:
The press release makes no mention of including language to ease export controls on commercial satellites. Such a provision was added to the House version of the bill as an amendment during floor debate. Senator Michael Bennet (D-CO) recently introduced a bill with the same goal that theoretically could be offered as an amendment when this bill is considered in the Senate. The schedule for floor action on this bill was not announced.

I know you have seen the truckloads of singer/songwriter/electronica albums that have been on the market lately; and I also know that most of you dig the hell out of the genre. I am not sure if you noticed, but most of these recent albums have been coming from a German label called Morr Music. Formed in 1999, the label quickly established itself as on of the key sources for this particular genre with releases from artists like B. Fleischmann and Lali Puna. The usual Morr Music sound lies somewhere between bedroom electronica and singer/songwriter, and it's coated with healthy doses of glitch, indie-pop and techno. The end result is, in its simplest form, emotional electronica. Here are samples of what's on this comp:
1. B. Fleischmann - melodic glitch featuring German vocal loops
2-3. Duo505 - more melodic glitch, but backed by instruments like accordion and piano
4-5. The Go Find - re-mixed singer/songwriter backed by looped instruments and beats
6-8. Lali Puna - dark glitch with slightly creepy female vocals
9-12. Styrofoam - folktronica with sparse indie-pop vocals

A dangerous form of tuberculosis that resists treatment with both first-line and second-line drugs is spreading around the world, spurring an urgent search for new ways to stop the ancient scourge.
Extensively drug-resistant TB (XDR-TB) has been found in 28 countries, including, rarely, the USA, the World Health Organization says.
Multi-drug-resistant TB (MDR-TB), which is immune to the two most powerful anti-TB drugs, has been reported for years and is now in 90 countries. But it was not until March 2006 that WHO and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recognized XDR-TB, a form of the disease that has developed further immunity, which makes some of the second-tier drugs ineffective. It is still sometimes curable, but only with expensive drugs and intensive treatment.
Last August, an outbreak in South Africa was reported in which 52 of 53 patients with XDR-TB died. Most also had HIV. Now, XDR-TB is in every province of South Africa. At last week's Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections in Los Angeles, Karin Weyer of the South Africa Medical Research Council estimated 600 XDR-TB cases in the country with a fatality rate of 84%. More than 80% of those infected are HIV patients.
WHO says $650 million is needed each year to control drug-resistant TB.
"We were fairly complacent with the sense that we had drugs that work, and we do," says Maria Freire, CEO of The Global Alliance for TB Drug Development, a non-profit devoted to finding new TB drugs.
But when those drugs are given inappropriately or stopped too soon, drug resistance emerges, requiring more expensive and toxic alternatives. Regular TB can be cured with a combination of drugs taken for six months. MDR-TB requires a different combination, taken for 18 months to two years. If that regimen isn't followed carefully, XDR-TB can emerge.
"It doesn't mean you're totally untreatable, it means … they're giving you everything they have," Freire says. And in some cases, "we've simply run out of ammunition. We no longer have the drugs we need to fight this."
The TB Alliance is working with pharmaceutical companies, academic researchers and institutes to find new drugs, Freire says, and there are promising candidates in the pipeline. She says the goal is to develop drug combinations that attack different parts of TB bacteria to reduce resistance; that can be taken along with the anti-retroviral therapy needed by HIV/AIDS patients; and that are effective when taken for two months or less.
"That's a huge leap," she says, "but not an impossible goal." Ultimately, she says, the hope is to be able to "treat TB as you would any normal infection, with a 10-day treatment," but that may require a decade or more of biological research.

PHILADELPHIA Ś The Nick Foles era begins Sunday when the EaglesÆ rookie quarterback makes his NFL starting debut against the Washington Redskins at FedEx Field.
Meanwhile the Michael Vick Experience appears frightfully close to concluding this season.
VickÆs symptoms from his second concussion with the Eagles are many, varied and disconcerting. The best news Eagles head athletic trainer Rick Burkholder offered Friday was the distorted vision Vick suffered after a series of hits in the second quarter against the Dallas Cowboys last Sunday is OK. Burkholder wouldnÆt rule out an accumulation of hits being responsible for the 32-year-old VickÆs symptoms that include a long-standing issue with light sensitivity.
ōItÆs not even close to him playing this week,ö Burkholder said. ōHeÆs had symptoms all week. HeÆs had a headache, which has gotten better during the week. But heÆs foggy. HeÆs not very alert right now. He just doesnÆt have that energy. HeÆs tired all the time. HeÆs not getting rid of the fatigue. I would consider him heavy eyed. HeÆs just not the Michael Vick that I know when heÆs healthy.ö
Vick didnÆt do well in a cognitive function impact test Friday. HeÆll be tested again Monday. In addition to being light sensitive heÆs not far enough along to participate in even a modest exercise challenge.
The Eagles prescribed a weekend of quiet isolation in semi-darkness.
ōDonÆt try to exercise, donÆt try to play video games or watch video,ö Burkholder said. ōDo things that donÆt bother you.ö
For all practical purposes Vick is in Phase I of basically a five-phase process that must be completed without symptoms in order for him to be cleared to play football.
ōWeÆve had guys that have come out of Phase I immediately, and have been stuck in Phase II,ö Burkholder said. ōI have had guys who have gotten to Phase III, and then two weeks later, they couldnÆt get out of Phase III. There is no way to determine that. We could come back here Monday and he could be fine, and then I can progress him through the next couple of phases. You just donÆt know. And thatÆs why you donÆt judge or speculate with the coaches when heÆll return. ItÆs not fair to him and itÆs not fair to them. You have to take it day by day, and none of us will do anything crazy then and he wonÆt have pressure then.ö
Foles took the first-team snaps at practice this week and is pumped to go against a Redskins defense that lacks a pass rush and a pass defense.
ōItÆs going to be loud,ö Foles said after practicing to simulated crowd noise inside the EaglesÆ bubble. ōSo communication is going to be key. WeÆve got to stay together and play together.ö
The starting offensive line will have at least two changes this weekend depending on whether right guard Danny Watkins returns from an ankle injury. The Eagles list Watkins questionable for the Redskins.
The Eagles and the Redskins both are 3-6. The Eagles are on a five-game losing streak while the Redskins have lost two in a row.
