Quincy Pondexter is coming back to New Orleans. And Austin Rivers is leaving.
The NBA on Monday morning finalized a three-team deal that was first reported Saturday and first started unfolding Friday, bringing back Pondexter, who spent his rookie season with the New Orleans Hornets in 2010-11, and shipping out Austin Rivers, the 10th pick in the 2012 draft who never developed into a starter, to Boston — although Rivers is expected to eventually land with his father, Clippers coach Doc Rivers, in Los Angeles in a subsequent transaction.
The Pelicans also got a second-round pick, from the Memphis Grizzlies, after sending rookie guard Russ Smith to Memphis.
Also, the Boston Celtics traded forward Jeff Green to Memphis in exchange for veteran forward Tayshawn Prince and his expiring contract and a future first-round draft pick.
"We just felt like it was a trade that would help our team," Pelicans coach Monty Williams said before his team played at Boston. "Quincy is a guy we've had. He knows me. We're always looking for wing defenders. We feel like we got one who can also knock down a shot."
Pondexter, 6-foot-6, 225-pound forward, played in 30 games this season, averaging 4.5 points and 1.9 rebounds. In New Orleans as a rookie, he played in 66 games and averaged 2.8 points and 1.3 rebounds. He has averaged 4.5 points and 1.8 rebounds in his career.
"The New Orleans Pelicans are thrilled to welcome back a high-character person like Quincy Pondexter to our organization," Pelicans General Manager Dell Demps said in a statement. "Quincy is a two-way player, a multiposition defender that will add toughness along with an offensive skill set that we anticipate will help the Pelicans win games."
Rivers, a 6-4 guard, was selected out of Duke. He has career averages of 6.9 points, 2.3 assists and 1.9 rebounds. He averaged 6.8 points, 2.5 assists and 1.9 rebounds this season.
Smith, a 6-0 guard from Louisville, was acquired by New Orleans in a draft-night trade in June after being selected by the Philadelphia 76ers with the 47th overall pick.
Demps said it was difficult to trade guards Austin Rivers and Russ Smith.
"Russ was only with the team for a short time, while Austin is an intense competitor that is continuing to improve," Demps said. "We will miss Austin and Russ on and off the court. We thank Austin and Russ for their contributions and wish them success in the future."
Williams echoed that sentiment later Monday.
"We did put a lot into Austin. We wish him nothing but the best," Williams said. "I feel the same way about Austin as I do many of our guys. … When they have to leave, it's emotional. Austin is no different than Trevor Ariza or Willie Green, Jarrett Jack, guys that have been in our program and moved on."

yay! best last line ever!
| Jack-in-a-Tardis chapter 1 . 9/5/2012
Justin Time can go jump in a hole and Justin Beiber can go jump in an apocapypse
| leobold1 chapter 10 . 5/2/2012
A decent story. Great plotline, a post-apolyptic America. It's lacking in detail. It has the feel of a rough draft.
This story could have easily been 3-4 times longer. Justin is one dimensional, only shows why he became what he is over two sentences throughout the story.
The sickness also seems unplausable, how did it come into being, how does it become so virulent?
Also needs more dialog, but that will come with extension.
This has the chance of being a great story. It just needs a lot more detail and a little polishing.
| Aaron chapter 1 . 4/11/2012
cool story babe now make me a sandwich (:
| Meilea2010 chapter 10 . 4/5/2012
I very much enjoyed the ending. So Vance was the good guy after all. Anmd he and Jethro set it up. Alright. Love what Tony said about Justin Bieber is probably dead. Alright.

WOW! Awesome chapter! Now pacing and waiting anxiously for tomorrow...
Hey, I know this might sound like a stupid question, but why did Charlie decide on Amaryllis naming her kid after Tony? Was it cause he found the cure?
Okay anyways great job as usual and can't wait for the next story! Sounds like a good one!
Love ya!
| Long Live BRUCAS chapter 8 . 3/31/2012
Justin had control of the United States. He gave the citizens a choice: join him and do his biddings or be killed. Few joined him, but one person who did was NCIS Director Leon Vance, who soon became his right hand man. Ofcourse he would.
Glad Tony met up with Gibbs. Now he doesn't have to be alone.
Even better the whole team is still alive and are now together.
So glad Gibbs is OK.
Riff and Tony good combination as friends.I think it was Vance that gave Gibbs the cure. He is good and bad.
About the show I dont like EITHER. I think she has a hidden agenda
| KatchTheWave chapter 7 . 3/27/2012
This was really cool! I can't wait to read more! and yeah, I'm still holding onto that last hope that it's not a Vance-centered episode, 'cause Vance sucks really really badly. I hate that guy... And Dr. Ryan creeps me out, something is definately fishy with her. I'm glad that I'm not hte only one that thinks so!
| DS2010 chapter 6 . 3/23/2012
Getting better by the moment. I wonder if the good guys will save them. Still wondering what Vance is playingat.

HP and World Wildlife Fund Establish Global Climate Change Initiatives
PACIFIC, Singapore, June 2007 HP has announced that it plans to
allocate more than US$2 million in cash and HP equipment to the World
Wildlife Fund (WWF) to establish three projects aimed at addressing the
causes and consequences of climate change on a global basis.
The projects, which focus on analysis, research and data collection, include:
* The Epicenter for Climate Conservation – Based in North America and
focused on advancing climate adaptation and resiliency strategies and
projects worldwide, the Epicenter for Climate Conservation will be
driven by HP technology and led by Dr. Lara Hansen, chief climate
scientist of WWF.
* Climate Witness – An innovative online forum to raise global
awareness of the tangible consequences of climate change, Asia-based
Climate Witness will gather the stories of individuals and communities
affected by climate change and share them with the world. Climate
Witness projects will be established in China, India, Brazil and the
United States.
* Information and Communication Technology Innovation as a Driver of Climate Change Solutions –
This program, based in Europe, will work to identify 1 billion tons of
carbon reductions through the use of information and communication
technology."Climate change may be the most significant conservation
challenge of our era," said Suzanne Apple, vice president of Business
and Industry for WWF in the United States. "HP and WWF are committed to
addressing the causes of climate change and limiting its impact on the
HP's investment in these projects is part of the
company's ongoing initiative with WWF, first established in November
2006, to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from its operating facilities
worldwide; develop measures for product energy usage; educate and
inspire others to adopt best practices; and, use HP technology in
conservation efforts around the world."These initiatives are part of
HP's comprehensive philanthropic and environmental strategy that uses
technology to help reduce our own environmental impact, as well as that
of our customers, partners and suppliers," said Pat Tiernan, vice
president, Corporate, Social and Environmental Responsibility, HP. "Our
contribution to these projects will deliver measurable results that we
hope will encourage action from corporations, individuals and
governments around the world."Energy efficiency is a key priority at
HP. The company recently announced a goal to reduce its global energy
use by 20 percent by 2010. HP also plans to increase its renewable
energy purchases by more than 350 percent by procuring 50 million
kilowatt-hours of renewable electricity during 2007.

We're always looking for new, inspiring ambassadors to join the team. We ask our speakers to deliver at least 4 talks per year, acting as WaterAid ambassadors within their community and engaging the public about the work that we do. If you like to apply to become a speaker, please fill in our Volunteer Speaker application form and send it to us at [email protected]. We will then be in touch to arrange a phone interview with you, where we can tell you more about the role and learn more about why you want to volunteer with us. Meet our volunteers Meet Tom A prominent Rotarian and long-time WaterAid supporter, Tom has been a speaker for WaterAid for over 16 years. Tom was inspired to become a speaker by his wife Primrose. "She was working for Thames Water and was an active WaterAid speaker, I was so impressed with the work of WaterAid I felt that I would like to become a volunteer speaker also. In the year 2000, I gave my first talk jointly with Primrose." "Since then I have given over 300 talks to Rotary clubs, schools, faith groups, scouts and the W.I. and get a great deal of satisfaction from doing so." Tom is pictured to the right on WaterAid trip to Mali. Meet Fadeke Fadeke joined the WaterAid Speaker Network in 2015, and since then has used her local contacts to bring WaterAid's work to life in churches and faith groups in her community. "As a speaker, I encourage and enthuse others about the life saving work of WaterAid. The work of Wateraid is very moving, creating a very positive and uplifting response from those who hear about their work." In her talks Fadeke covers a wide range of topics, from the water and sanitation crisis, the work that WaterAid is doing to make taps and toilets a reality for everyone everywhere, and how supporters can get involved themselves. "From deciding to give up something during lent to raise funds, to taking up a challenge such as running a marathon… it all makes a difference". Meet Bob Bob joined the the WaterAid Speaker network back in October 2015, and has been spreading the WaterAid message ever since. "I wanted a complete change from my previous office-bound job and having supported WaterAid for a number of years, getting out and telling others about the brilliant work WaterAid does was a natural choice." "I particularly enjoy working with schools – either large assemblies or classroom-sized workshops, where you have more chance to interact, answer questions and lead activities related to WaterAid's WASH message. You really get the sense you've made a difference!"

No matter what the era is, movie stars have always been good-looking people. Yet, for some reason, the big screen stars from the 1950s, '60s or '70s don't appeal to Millennials as much celebrities of their own generation.
Maybe it's because of their outdated photos. Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn were extraordinarily pretty, but their graceful style doesn't quite translate into whatever is in fashion these days. To solve this, Samsung asked a group of digital artists to give some of the most beautiful faces of bygone era a modern makeover.

When I was a kid, I had only my brother and sister as friends and honestly, I didn't like them that much...I-I mean...I like them like brother and sister but...I didn't love them...like they weren't close to me...I don't want to seem like a sociopath but it's true. So, I created an imaginary friend. I put all my heart and imagination to create her, and I named her Umi, because I wanted to name my sis that name, but mom didn't let me. She was really kind and gentle...to me. She didn't like my brother, sister or parents for some reason.
But her personality didn't fit her appearance...she had a dark gray skin, had no eyes or arms and her black hair was cut in many sizes. Plus she could move her legs in any direction like she had a thousand bones in it. You may think this is creepy but I thought somehow she was... cute. We went through a lot together and as long as she was far from my relatives, we lived in happiness and peace. That was till the day all the family went to the park. Of course I brought Umi.
Even knowing that something could have happened, I couldn't leave her alone. I was playing all by myself.
My family was too busy playing together to play with me. Umi appeared. "Umi...they left me alone...my parents love my brother and sister more than me...what should I do?" I asked. "You should kill your brother and sister! That's the only way you can be loved, right? If you kill them, your parents will have less people to share your love with, right?" I was shocked. Umi didn't like them...but kill them? Well I ignored her for our friendship's sake.
We returned home after that weird Saturday evening, but that night I woke up at dawn. I simply couldn't sleep. I got out of my bed and ran off of my bedroom. But as soon as I tried to get through the door Umi appeared blocking the way. She was all covered in blood and with a knife held between her toes."Hi! I did something amazing for both of us!" she said, smiling. "I did it! I killed them! Your brother and sister are dead!" She hugged me with her legs, getting me all bloody. Her creepy smile right on my face, breathing on it, staring at it with her empty eye-sockets. "Now your parents love you more! And... you love me more too, right?" I cried and tried to get free from her freaky twisted hug "NO!! Why did you do that!? I hate you!" I yelled. She vanished in the air; I ran to my brother's room and looked at his corpse, shocked...
She didn't just kill him, she made him suffer till his last breath. She cut his eyes in half, tore his arms off and stabbed his heart till it stopped beating. There was a piece of his bloody sheets on his mouth that didn't let him scream. I ran to my sister's bedroom…..Dead……..Her corpse was the same way as my brother's.
I...I think I fainted. I remember only of being laid on something that was moving and something was attaching my hands and feet to it. And of a voice. A voice saying I killed my whole family. Wait, my parents are alive aren't they?
And then I woke up in this white room….with a weird shirt that didn't let me move well. I got out of it sometimes… just to get taken to some people. They told me where I was when I was twelve. I was in a mental hospital like I was the one who killed my brother and sister... I told them that I was innocent. That Umi did all that. They refused to believe and tried to make me forget Umi.
Mainly that lady. She talked to me every day, trying to fool me with this bullshit she calls real world. I know what is the real world and Umi is in it! Some days later she was talking to some more people in white. I came back to the white room and started thinking about myself when Umi appears... "WHY!? I did it all for you! Why don't you love me!? Is it because you never shared your love with me!?" She jumped towards me with her knife and faded away. But the knife cut my cheek. I had realized everything.
I…I just needed a chance. I tried to copy her moves by trying to get her knife and hide it in my clothes. I made it, and since that lady was talking to the people in white, no one noticed this happening, not even the cameras.
I got out of my white room, guards looking at me like I was a freak, noticing every move, always ready to stop me. They kept wondering how I got the cut on my cheek and decided to investigate my white room. That gave me enough time. I went inside a room with weird tools and a chair with cuffs. I saw them, talking to a doctor with a clipboard before they closed the door. My name was on it. I cut the head cuff with Umi's knife till it was weak enough to tear apart with my hand. Done. The doctor came and attached me to the chair, then grabbed a steel thing and a hammer. He pointed the steel to my head.
That second, that second was when I thought about everything...
Umi didn't kill my brother and sister. I did.
Umi was only the part of me that showed my deepest and most dark ideas from an area of my brain that should be forgotten. I killed my brother and sister because my will to be more loved by my parents were stronger than myself. All that Umi did was what I wanted. And now the only escape for me was to kill Umi. When he hit the steel with the hammer I released my head, making him hit my brain a way it would surely cause her death.
I didn't kill Umi. She did.

The Canberra Raiders have been fined $144,393 for breaches of the NRL salary cap for last season.
Raiders chief executive Don Furner said the club would lodge an appeal regarding the amount of the punishment, but conceded they had gone over the first-tier and second-tier salary caps.
The 2012 NRL salary cap for the top 25 players of each club was $4.4 million, with another $350,000 for the secondary cap.
"We were aware of our overspend in both first-tier and second-tier salary caps, however we will be lodging an appeal in the size of the fines and we're confident in that appeal," Furner said.
"This overspend related to representative bonuses, and payments to players outside the top 25 to cover long-term injuries.
"In 2012 we had to activate a number of clauses in younger player's contracts, as we needed to fill the positions left vacant by long term injuries to our top squad.
"Breaches of the lower-tier cap related to a number of allowances to our second-tier players.
"We will be lodging an appeal this afternoon based on the fines issued to us."
How much the Raiders breached the cap by was not disclosed.
Raiders captain Terry Campese missed the majority of last season with a knee injury, while several youngsters, including Josh Papalii and Sam Williams, played more games than initially expected.
In findings released on Friday, the NRL endorsed a total of $503,407 in fines across seven clubs.
The Cronulla Sharks were hit the hardest with a $150,000 fine, followed by the Raiders, Knights ($88,749), Sea Eagles ($85,000), Titans ($16,217), Roosters ($14,348) and Eels ($4700).
The fines have been imposed for a range of breaches across the top 25, second tier and National Youth Competition salary caps.
"The salary cap plays an incredibly important role in the competition and all clubs need to be accountable for staying within the limits of the cap," NRL Chief Operating Officer Jim Doyle, said.
"This closeness of the competition over many years is tied directly to the fair and consistent enforcement of the salary cap rules and the effectiveness of the annual audit process.
"The fact that we are looking to review the cap going forward does not in any way alter the importance of clubs complying with the rules as they stand presently."

text: When will they get to the Safe zone? I predict that it will be midseason finale of season 4 or earlier, giving enough time for the Hunters, Abe, Rosita, Eugene, Morgan (again) and Father Gabe. Im also going to guess when the herd comes to Safe zone, Ron will be saved through his mother, Jesse, sacrifice, with her final request to Rick will be to take care of her son, thus making Rick responsible for the kid who in his eyes caused his entire family to die. That would be pretty interesting. Any other predictions?

The Wortham Bluffs are a location in Act I of Diablo III.
They are located just to the north of the small town of Wortham, through a gate which opens after the player saves the townsfolk from Maghda and her Zealots.
The bluffs lead to the Caverns of Araneae, and are home to the Crazed Hermit.
Rodger the Alchemist may also appear here, but is not a guaranteed spawn. Some Spiders may, but are not guaranteed to guard the passage.
In the back of the bluffs, there is a glowing pit from El'druin shard, presumably the location where the hilt piece fell before being swept to the river to be found by Wortham fishermen.

Bring business analysis to streaming events
AptSoft's and iSpheres' complex event processing solutions provide effective ways to sift business meaning from system events in real time
Administrative tools for server and process management provided granular views of operating parameters. I could not only see current streams but even change and add event definitions -- that is, EPL rules -- to my server on the fly. Although change controls would be a nice addition, this does show how quickly you could update processing rules in fluid business circumstances.
Event Server is great for developers. It's sleek, responsive, and well-styled for driving complex event processing. However, the scenarios in which it might be usefully applied are limited by the absence of a persistent data store, adapters for enterprise systems, and bells and whistles for plugging in line-of-business staff. Until iSpheres provides dashboards and better tools for business decision makers to monitor the system engine for ongoing changes in event patterns and to easily tweak the process rules in response, Event Server will remain best suited to relatively hard-coded deployments.
Looking downstream
AptSoft Director and iSpheres Event Server are both powerful CEP systems. On the basis of their EPLs alone, you'll find no major differences in scope or capabilities. Outside of this core functionality, AptSoft provides a richer set of features for weaving CEP into an enterprise infrastructure, monitoring long-running processes, and enabling nonprogrammers to adapt the rules to evolving business conditions. However, even AptSoft is a far cry from a shrink-wrapped CEP infrastructure. Even the cream of CEP solutions today will require a good deal of tinkering to bridge the gap between feature sets and business requirements.
As CEP evolves and becomes more mainstream, we can expect it to begin cropping up in enterprise service bus offerings and application servers, making implementation easier and extending its benefits to new app areas.
In the meantime, for companies striving to keep IT aligned with business processes while coping with more regulatory constraints, an accelerating pace of business, and increasingly complex distributed systems, both AptSoft and iSpheres offer a path to real business benefits by helping to make high-level sense out of low-level noise.

Hi, My grandmother was a Mccall. She was Ella Mccall b. 1876 in Santa Rosa County, Fl. Her father was a W A Mccall. Her mother was an Elizabeth Thompson. They married in 1875 in Santa Rosa County, Fl. Elizabeth married a William Malone in Fl in 1877, so from what I understand, he raised Ella. I have yet to find my Mccall. Since Al is right next to this part of Santa Rosa County, Fl, I am hoping you may have a W A Mccall in your line. I know this family went to La and Elizabeth did not like it and came back to Fl with my grandmother Ella and married the Malone. So I am not sure where my Mccall ended up at. Thanks for checking your line. i have searched for years for him Jenny

For years, I've graced my other league with a season preview in which I've laid out each team's playoff chances, as well as weekly previews predicting the outcome of each game. (Spoiler alert: I usually like my team the best)
Last year, I had 5 out of our 6 playoff teams pegged correctly (nailing 4 positions dead on) and my weekly picks record was something like 55-28. This proves definitively that I am a genius and that I have mastered a completely worthless skill. What could be more American?
I didn't do an AFFL preview last year because I didn't know half of the league;s owners and all I could tell was that Christian left turds in the team's front office before quitting the league. Oh, and also that Brian Williams was somehow the only guy with superstars that cost him under $1.50. This year, I still don't know half the owners, and I don't even like the ones I do, but at least I have things figured out. So! Not asked for and probably not cared about, I present the 2012 AFFL Season Preview. (All predictions legally binding in perpetuity throughout the universe)
Think of this as Jeff Ross previewing your team, except if Jeff Ross was dazzingly handsome and athletic like myself.
Fortunately, the Michael Bush for a 12th round pick trade came down moments before I started writing, so I didn't have to set my first draft on fire. Brian Barker sent out the call for a running back and by objective measures, he succeeded. Subjectively, eh.
Franchise player Rashard Mendenhall is pretty cheap for a franchise guy, though expensive for a guy who doesn't actually play and isn't very good. If his salary was based on number of spin moves, he'd be the most expensive player in the league. (Full disclosure: Before last season, I offered Peterson for Mendenhall and was rejected. The rare trade that wouldn't have worked out for either team)
Between Bush and Blount, Sproles and Spiller, this team has the market cornered on handcuff backs, so hopefully Desean Jackson and Roddy White perform up to their high salaries. Between those two and Cruz, this team's weekly points chart is going to look like an EKG. A lot of 65 point weeks followed by 105. But they'll get Robert Griffin Junior Junior on a long-term contract, which will help with marketing and shirt sales.
This might be the only team to release 5 running backs on cutdown day. Goddamn Backfield of Depressing Dreams lined up.
PLAYOFFS? Maybe one year. Not this year.
Animal House clipped my very next draft pick in three different rounds last week, so on that alone I respect them. And because I respect them, I would like to kill them. Like a small-mouth bass or a 12-point buck, to put it in Western PA terms. Between Jammal Charles and Ryan Mathews, Animal House has the All-Paper All-Stars, though perhaps there's a perverse thrill in watching Charles sprint down to the 10-yard line, get shoved out of bounds and then stay out of bounds as Peyton Hillis comes in. And based on every summer's fantasy projection, Ryan Mathews is going to retire in 2014 with 2200 career rushing yards and somehow end up in Hall of Fame discussions.
There is going to be a week this year when Kenny Britt and Dwayne Bowe alone win the week for Animal House, though there will be several other weeks where Britt is injured, suspended, benched or some combo of the three. He keeps it interesting, I'll give him that much.
If Charles can get back to speed and Mathews actually plays this year, this team could make some noise. But Brady and the receiving corps should at least get them into the news come December.
PLAYOFFS? Yes, but not a lot of playoffs. Just a dash of playoffs.
The CR has 3 different players who cost at least $2 (and Calvin JUST misses), and yet they'll have another $2 of cap space to start the season. I can't tell if this is impressive or concerning. It's like hearing what number Romney's actual tax payments are. I guess that's the fun with numbers you can have when Roy Helu is your RB2 even though he's the NFL's RB42. It has to be a thrill ride watching a Redskins offensive possession when you need Helu points. "No! Why are they subbing out every single snap?! I'm tired of Alfred Morris!!!"
Chesty didn't have a 2nd round or 5th round pick this year, which partially created this Kardashian-like lack of depth, but in the heat of trying to reach .500 and the 2011 playoffs' 5 seed, regretful decisions are made on the fly.
Larry Fitzgerald had better enjoy his last season with this team, which will be running as many one back sets as his own Arizona Cardinals. This team might even see Randall Cobb make a few a starts. That being Green Bay's 5th receiving option, and not famed actor Randall "Tex" Cobb, who frightened us all as the heavy in Raising Arizona and also Fletch Lives.
PLAYOFFS? The Barkers will able to watch the Week 14 games together without a care in the world.
Every time I start to think I'm figuring out this league, I stumble across something like a team having a kicker on a 2-year contract and panic, figuring that there must be something I'm not getting. I mean...this team is bi-managed and has been around a lot longer than me, so the Occam's Razor here (ie, "That is a bad contract") can't be right.
What IS right, though, is having Aaron Rodgers locked up permanently for $1.07. That is so, so right. McGahee could be nice, Gronk is a good value at $1.07 for receiver-type numbers, and the Niner defense should be good for some turnovers. Unfortunately, that spoonful of rightness was only a sidebar before I have to delve back into what's wrong. There is so, so much.
By the time Jahvid Best actually plays this year, MRN might be formally eliminated from the playoffs. Frank Gore is old and slow, and Mark Ingram is young and slow. Laurent Robinson was useless with a maybe decent young quarterback on a shitty team, so I'm not sure how moving to a shitty team with a certainly bad quarterback helps. Kendall Wright is a sleeper who will not wake up any time in 2012.
It's fitting that this team has 3 different Niners on it (Gore/Moss/DST), because like the Niners, they will not come anywhere close to last year's 13-win season.
PLAYOFFS? Potentially the only fantasy team in America on which Aaron Rodgers won't make the playoffs.
Neil Armstrong's death didn't bring out as many conspiracy theorists as Gary landing the #1 pick this year. All I know is that I received a flurry of emails with a draft order, then another draft order where I was suddenly picking top 3, then an email about a lottery system that we could all watch happen together, then an email that the lottery was over and Gary magically had the #1 overall pick despite missing the 2011 playoffs by a single game. Oh by the way, this all in a year where the consensus #1 pick in a very thin draft is a running back and by the way, Gary needed a running back, and by the by the way, Gary already had 2 quarterbacks. The rules for Calvinball weren't this made up.
(Also, only the 1st round is decided by lottery and the rest of the draft settles back into order of standings? What the hell is that?)
With Ryan, McFadden, Rice, Bradshaw and Kevin Smith (for about 3 weeks) in the mix, this is a pretty interesting team. Interesting enough to overcome a total lack of wide receivers. Though I did enjoy that Gary drafted Alshon Jeffery without even knowing how to spell his name. Too bad he didn't take Ray Reiss #1 overall.
Also, this is extremely petty, but in the updated team sheet released today, Gary labeled a section Two Tear Contracts. I assume this is where you put the guys who broke your heart. Yeah, that's right. You enter 150+ players into a fully-automated spreadsheet that breaks down contracts in half a second, but make two little typos and I mock you. Such is life.
PLAYOFFS? For sure. Which somehow won't rule out Gary landing the 2013 #1 pick.
This is a good team with a great owner. Christian left a few pieces in place (Green, A.J.), but also left a lot of detritus in his wake. After cleaning out last year's bad ideas and cap penalties, now the ISIS is ready to roll. (Or fly. I think the mythical Isis was a bird, not a truck.)
Adrian Peterson's rebuilt knee is going to determine whether my team is just really good or truly amazing this season. The biggest problem I'm going to have is figuring out which of my five #1 receivers deserve the start each week. Unless Cedric Benson is mildly functional, in which case my main issue is going to be keeping my weekly score under 150 so I don't seem showy.
Also, MJD? Don't come back. Me and Rashad Jennings are getting along nicely and really don't need you getting in the way.
PLAYOFFS? Yes, all of the playoffs.
Despite going 2-12 with the fewest points scored in 2011, Out For Revenge only managed to land the #2 draft pick. I don't know what he did, but it seems like the universe is out for revenge against Bill McCamey.
After putting said pick up on the trade block, Bill fended off any and all offers for that pick like a Kansas Republican fending off free condoms. Then, despite having 3 running backs under contract and a metric shit ton of cap space, Bill passed on Brady and Brees in favor of Trent Richardson. Now, I get the idea of eventually franchising Richardson, but Cleveland running backs follow one of three career arcs:
- They fumble in a huge game (like Earnest Byner)
- They put up their best seasons in Baltimore (like Jamal Lewis)
- They are the best player in the league before retiring to become an actor and civil rights activist (both Jim Brown AND William Green)
- They suck (like all of the other ones)
But, in fairness, Richardson is already ahead of the rookie curve in one sense. He already has his first knee injury. Behind him, Out For Revenge boasts a full stable of backup running backs. But at least the receivers are also second options on their teams, so there won't be any ugly locker room division, like when Greg Lloyd almost beat up Neil O'Donnell because he was tired of the defense carrying the Steelers. This team is so colossally bad that I hope that Bill has a good job and rich, fulfilling personal life so he can focus on the positive this fall.
PLAYOFFS? No. Possibly not ever.
I have so, so, so many questions about this franchise, and they are coming to me so quickly that all I can do is capture them with a James Joyce stream of consciousness-style.
Did Timmy try to change his team name to Boots To Asses and just didn't do it right Why is it that last year he demanded a 2nd round pick in exchange for Sam Bradford only to cut Bradford later Why is it that he wouldn't even hear offers for Mike Wallace last year, but threw him on the trading block this year Why did he take 7 full minutes to make his 2nd round pick, Phillip Rivers, whom he is now offering to every team in the league How in the world is he getting this roster under the salary cap Why did he take Michael Turner with the 3rd overall pick when literally skipping the pick would've been a better option Why did he take a kicker in the 3rd round How good is he thinking San Diego is going to be if 3 Chargers were among his first 5 picks Did he think Robert Meachem was still on New Orleans
Whew. Time for a deep breath.
PLAYOFFS? Come on, don't be rude.
If this was fantasy rugby and Bri could just put guys who run with the ball on the field, he would run away with his title. But at some point he's going to have to put a wide receiver on the field, and right now he's the only football team owner in America who has Plaxico Burress anywhere near a field. And the thing is, Bri really needs to enjoy this season, because Foster (or McCoy) and Stafford are going to have new addresses in 2013. If it's been frustrating trying to get what he thinks is proper value for Stafford, I can't imagine how much hair will be pulled out if he tries to move Arian or Shady. Probably lots, as Bri is a pretty furry guy.
But at some point Stafford is going to be traded for a #1 wide receiver, although a Google search for AFFL teams that want a QB and have WR depth to spare has quite limited results. In fact, it might only be me. Sorry, Bri.
PLAYOFFS? Oh, for sure
I can't even imagine how exciting it must have been to franchise Chris Johnson at only $0.88. So I can only imagine how frustrating last season was for The Knight. Probably as frustrating as sitting through one more season of Steven Jackson at $3.36. (Fun fact! Jackson is THE most expensive player in the entire league)
On the plus side, Ben is going to have a huge year between Todd Haley, no real running backs, and the freedom to call his own plays. AND the inevitable Week 9 sideline screamfest between Ben and Haley will be lots of fun. If there's even a tiny bounce back from Chris Johnson and Beanie, and Jennings and Welker do what they should, and Mike Williams plays more like his 1st year and not his 2nd, this team could do a little something mild.
Side note: As much as I know about the NFL (almost everything + infinity squared), I have NO idea who Leonard Hankerson is. But the WR-WAS next to his name tells me he can't be very good.
PLAYOFFS? Barely.
This roster is so hilarious and screwy right now that if I didn't know Larry and semi-respect him and speak with him regularly, my review of his team would make the Sigmund review look like a hagiography. But in the interest of fairness and hilarity, let's take an honest look at what's going on here.
First, this team is $4.63 over the cap, far and away the most into the red. His franchise player is super expensive, holding out with no sympathy from his NFL team, and didn't help all that much last year, even when leading the league in rushing. Felix Jones is under contract, even though he's barely still signed in Dallas. There are FOUR quarterbacks on the roster. Larry apparently loves crowded confusion so much that he drafted DeAngelo Williams (1 of 3 backs in Carolina) and BenJarvus Green-Ellis (too many name words). He wanted Doug Martin so badly that he took him in the first round, thereby giving him a salary raise before a single snap.
The crazy thing is, with things breaking the right way, this could be a decent team. All Larry has to do is figure out the right QB or two to keep, get Nicks, Rice and Steve Johnson to perform as they should, and get something out of this running back mess. Oh, and sign Brian Quick to a 2-year contract. That guy is probably good luck.
UPDATE! Maurice Jones-Drew is officially on the block! If you're looking for a franchise player that costs almost $3 and doesn't actually play, boy, does Larry have the guy for you!
PLAYOFFS? Looking like it.
Having Tim Tebow as a franchise player - when even an actual NFL franchise didn't consider him one - is so hilarious that I'm going be sorry when Scott cuts Tebow and picks a new main dude. I guess the next FP will be Antonio Brown, which isn't even 1/16th as exciting or fun. It's sensible and good, which is super boring in fantasy football.
Scott somehow squirted his way into the title game last year after an 8-6 regular season, and figuring it's better to be lucky than good, decided to rely on a backfield of Reggie Bush and Donald Brown, with Alfred Morris getting the occasional 8-carry start. He also drafted two Jets receivers despite the fact that the Jets have yet to score a preseason touchdown. (Update: Their 3rd string got one tonight)
I...i unno. This team sucks. What else do you want from me? I've written half a book here.
PLAYOFFS? Prognosis negative.

An Australian friend who works as a mountain climbing guide in Nepal told me once that the extremely hard core climbers are usually Japanese... Doing something in the extreme, in a way, is a Japanese trait. Why else would we be known as the market with the most demanding consumers in terms of quality, convenience, and hospitality?
EXTREME Commuting is a hash tag on Twitter that is gaining popularity.
The idea is to play first and work later - on week days - and tweet about it.
Let's look at a day in the life of self-proclaimed leaders who spearheaded the hashtag/trend. They are two men, aged 29 and 34.
At 5:20 am, the duo meet up at Kita Kamakura Station, some 50km outside of Tokyo. Takahiko Shiina, aged 34, has left home at 4 am. His partner, Sota Amatani, aged 29, left Tokyo the night before and spent the night at a manga kissa, or coffee shop that specializes in providing private space and lots of comic books.
They head to an old Zen temple, Enkaku Temple. It is the first time for Amatani.
Their EXTREME Commute on this day started with a one-hour zen meditation.
Then, they moved on to Yuigahama beach just after 7:00am. Shiina rolls up his trouser legs and Amatani strips down to his boxer shorts and the two splashed about for around 5 minutes, though they claim "it felt like half an hour of fun!" They progress to using Shiina's tie as a blind fold to try to break a watermelon with a baseball bat - a traditional summer beach picnic event.
They manage the break the watermelon open on the fifth round of trying and lap up the fruit like a pair of hungry dogs, according to a Nikkei reporter who was with them and who reports on their EXTREME Commute of the day.
"I feel like I am at the extreme opposite position of a white collar worker right now!" proclaims Amatani.
Though the clock is ticking, the pair insist on wrapping up their excursion with a bowl of ramen noodles. They rush into a noodle shop before 8 am and devour their meals in under 5 minutes to catch the 8:12 train to Tokyo.
The rule is to play hard and never be tardy for work, they say.
Their EXTREME Commute started as a fun discussion over drinks. Now, they may have up to 10,000 followers checking their tweets on their latest adventure with other people sharing their EXTREME Commutes.
From 2 through 6 September, the duo called out to their followers to participate in an EXTREME Commute-athon. More than 100 groups have joined so far.
"It is more refreshing than taking a day off" because every minute counts and there is no dilly dallying around, it seems. And another important factor is to "try" and "challenge onself" to do new things.

Hunting's Dilemma: Balancing Cost, Access and Opportunity
Forty years ago, when an angry wife confronted her husband about the amount of time he spent chasing wild animals, he could defend his actions by reminding her about the low-cost meat the outings provided. During that era, going hunting usually meant grabbing a shotgun after work and walking out the back door into a neighboring field or woodlot looking for rabbits or other upland game. Licenses were inexpensive and equipment needs were modest.
Elk Hunting High-Pressure Areas
A great deal of elk hunting here in Wyoming, and other states, is done not only on public land, but is also on lands where the hunter can simply buy a tag over the counter and head off into the mountains. Consequently these areas typically have a tremendous amount of hunting pressure and require different tactics if the hunter is to score consistently.
Moose Hunting Tactics
To the casual observer who happens to see a moose by the side of the road or in a park, these largest members of the deer family appear large, ugly and ungainly. And, I must admit that, in this context the description is apt. Yet, seen in its natural habitat of hinterland bogs and spruce forests, the animal is graceful and magnificently suited to a harsh environment. Those who have hunted moose know that they can appear and disappear like ghosts, that they can be both timid and bold. Hunting them is more than just a matter of technique, science or art; it's more like a passion.
Practice Like You Hunt: Making Every Shot Count
Most of us were taught growing up that practice makes perfect. For most things in life that is pretty sound advice, but when it comes to bowhunting, not all practice is equal.
Elk Hunting Basics - A Guide to Hunting and Calling Elk
Truly one of the most sporting species, from their guttural bugles to their aggressive rutting behaviors, elk are simply an awesome animal to hunt. If you've ever interacted with a dominant bull, you know what I'm talking about. When a bull screams within earshot, it makes the hair on the back of your neck stand up! But not every individual will come in on a string. Finesse and strategy are the name of the game with elk. Know when to speak, when to keep quiet, and which call to use when and you're on your way to a close encounter. Call too much and you may as well head back to camp.
The Bear Facts - 25 Things Every Black Bear Hunter Should Know
Despite divided opinion about the political correctness of bear hunting, it is something every hunter should try at least once. But a word of caution, if you want to make the most of your outings, there are a few key things you should know. The more knowledgeable you are, the better your chances of tagging a trophy.
Could You Survive Alone?
The man was in deep pain and knew his right leg was broken. While the bone had not pierced the skin, the foot was bent at an unnatural angle. He removed his sheath knife and cut his pants up past his knee, because he knew the leg would start to swell soon. He leaned back on the dark green moss and thought of how dumb he had been that day.
Passing it on: Youth and Beginner Hunts
Bringing a newcomer or youth on to the big game hunting scene is different than doing it alone or with your fellow long time hunting partners. Instead of just getting an animal or trophy being the goal, you are passing on important skills and a heritage. Whether your newcomer is young or old, you are also developing a relationship.
Planning a Do-it-Yourself Bighorn Sheep Hunt
A bighorn sheep hunt is a dream for many hunters. Indeed, in the mind of this hunter, bighorn sheep hunting is the ultimate. While at our leisure sitting next to the fireplace or while lying in bed at night we may dream and think of hunting sheep, the actual "doing" of it is not to be taken lightly.
Mule Deer Mysteries
We spotted the bucks just after sunrise, grazing on an open face far above timberline. We were far below. There would be no time to get in position for a shot before they went to bed down in an almost impenetrable thicket of krummholz, the dense, short pines found above timberline in the Rockies.
The Art of Hunting Cow Elk
You're laughing. I know you're laughing. "What art?" you're saying. "If you're hunting cow elk, you just go out and shoot one." Well, it's not so simple.
The Rut Trap
Whitetails have extraordinary eyesight. Their ability to hear the subtle snap of a twig is uncanny, and their sense of smell is remarkably acute. Simply put, whitetailed deer are the perfect forest dweller. Throughout most of the year, their ability to elude danger is impeccable. With this reputation, they are the perfect big game species.
What Trophy Should Really Mean
When we hunt we must work hard, we obey the law, we are ethical, and we are reverent. Every animal taken - young or old, buck or doe - is a "trophy". They are gifts of the land.
Preparing for a Bighorn Hunt
I'm fortunate enough to live less than two hours from some of the best bighorn hunting in the world. Hence, I've pursued sheep a number of years now, and over this course I have developed a few opinions pertaining to gear selection I feel is invaluable to anyone considering a bighorn hunt.
25 Things Every Elk Hunter Should Know
Elk hunting is tough for the experienced and can be daunting for the neophyte. Fortunately, knowledge can level the playing field and improve your odds when you're on your next elk hunt. Whether you're a new raghorn chaser or an experienced wapiti stalker the following twenty five tips offer advice every elk hunter should know.
Where have our mule deer gone?
While there always seems to be a good buck harvested here and there throughout the west today, the general consensus seems to be the same; our mule deer are in trouble. Some of us have turned to hunting elk and are excited about the increasing elk numbers, while others have been riding out the storm in hopes of the deer someday returning to their numbers of the past.
Western Private Land Hunting for Less
Hunters who can fork out the big money for private land hunting are in for an experience rarely duplicated on public lands. Fortunately, some lucky hunters without huge bankrolls enjoy opportunities to hunt the same private ranches as the rich boys. Most western states have programs that allow public hunters access to private land. The programs are possible because wildlife belongs to the states - even wildlife on private land.
Bowhunting for Prairie Goats
Somewhat vulnerable, I found myself crouching behind the silhouette of a young pronghorn buck. It can be a lonely feeling amid a vast expanse of prairie grassland, knowing full well, you're sticking out like a proverbial sore thumb. Somehow the mind-over-matter trick just doesn't cut it when all 175 lbs. of camo-clad hunter desperately attempts to convince himself he's part of the landscape.
A Field Dressing Guide for Elk and Deer
Field dressing game is as much a part of the hunt as target practice and scouting. Unfortunately, correctly field dressing game can be challenging and awkward for the inexperienced. If you have never cleaned out game in the field or have had trouble in the past this feature article walks you through how to field dress, debone, and pack out your next deer or elk kill.
Bighorn Hunting the Rockies: A Full Curl Dream
Unless you've done it, it's tough to comprehend. I speak of hunting bighorns, arguably the true monarch of the Rocky Mountains. Among all North American game species, they exemplify the essence of majesty. Few creatures can survive where they thrive. Amid scrambling talus slopes, at altitudes that cause most mortals to gasp, bighorn rams are indeed a sight to behold.

VHS slowly going the way
of Beta
By Thomas K. Arnold, Special for USA TODAY
VHS videocassette is slipping away, though the format, like the cassette, is expected
to see an extended decline. Despite DVD's rapid ascent (the format, not even five
years old, should be in nearly 25 million homes by year's end, according to Adams
Media Research), VHS still dominates. More than 95 million U.S. households have
at least one VCR, for a penetration rate of 90.5%, compared with DVD's 23.4%.
DVD as a category has exploded," says Kelley Avery, of DreamWorks Home Entertainment,
which released Shrek earlier this month. "However, the VHS market will
be the lion's share of units sold this quarter."
Tom Adams believes videos will hang around for at least another decade, thanks
to the high percentage of households that have VCRs and the fact that cassettes
can be used for recording TV shows and home movies. "Just like the audio cassette
hung around for more than a decade after the CD came," Adams says, "recordability
will help extend the life cycle of the videocassette."
DVD is just getting launched, Adams notes, with a hefty price tag ($1,000 and
up) and compatibility issues. "There are multiple non-compatible formats, including
one in which discs won't play on standard DVD machines," Adams says. "That gives
recordable DVD little chance of taking off quickly."
there are signs of VHS erosion, particularly with prerecorded tapes. Best Buy,
a national chain popular with tech-savvy "early adopters," now generates more
than 80% of its video sales from DVD.
Best Buy Enterprises'
Musicland unit caters to more mainstream consumers. And its VHS sales now account
for less than half of the chain's video revenues, according to senior vice president
Joe Pagano.
Even Blockbuster Video, which a year ago
was heavily promoting the "guaranteed availability" of hot cassette rentals, is
pushing DVDs instead. The chain is trimming its VHS inventory by 25% and bringing
in more DVDs. And for the holiday season, the chain is selling DVD players and
has launched DVD promotions. (Buy a Philips DVD player for $149 and get a card
good for 10 free DVD rentals; buy a 52-week DVD rental card for $199 and get a
free Philips DVD player.)
Film fans prefer DVD to VHS
because of the convenience, superior picture and sound, and bonus material such
as making-of documentaries and extra scenes. Jason Merrick, 28, an emergency dispatcher
from Woodland Hills, Calif., has amassed a collection of more than 300 DVDs since
January 1999, and he likes all of those features.
his main reason for embracing DVD is the widescreen picture: "It's very important
for me to see the movie as it was intended by the director, not hacked off at
the sides to fit my TV screen."
Studio execs are careful
not to trash VHS, though, because it accounts for the majority of their revenues.
(People snapped up 2.5 million Shrek DVDs in the first three days but bought
4.5 million VHS cassettes in the same period.)
But cutbacks
in cassette production are expected.
"I think we're
all watching it very closely," says Blake Thomas, executive vice president of
marketing for MGM Home Entertainment. "We are fully committed to DVD, but we are
also mindful that there are a lot of people who are perfectly happy with their
video player."
Disney, on the other hand, has been aggressively
promoting DVD to its family customers. Robert Chapek, president of Disney's Buena
Vista Home Entertainment, views the family market as a lucrative growth area for
DVD. "We have just begun to scratch the surface of the potential for our family
movies as the mainstream consumer begins to adapt to DVD," he says.
VHS sales are also expected to decline, according to the International Recording
Media Association. North American demand is expected to slip from 360 million
units this year to 330 million in 2002.
The group's
president, Charles Van Horn, says a number of companies use videocassettes for
promotions and marketing, and he'd like to see more of that. Alternative uses,
he says, could account for "a very meaningful" 90 million to 100 million videocassettes
in 2002.
VHS, he says, "is slipping, there's no doubt
about that. But it's not going away."

DishTV has reported a 53 per cent growth in revenues at Rs 2,521 million for the first quarter ended June 30, 2009 over the corresponding quarter in the previous fiscal. The DTH service provider has also claimed to have added 0.44 million new subscribers in Q1 FY10 as compared to 0.35 million during Q4 FY09, registering an increase of 27 per cent sequentially.
The Board of Directors, in its meeting held on Friday, July 31, 2009, has taken on record the unaudited consolidated financial results of DishTV and its subsidiaries for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.
Commenting on the Q1 results, Subhash Chandra, Chairman, DishTV, said, "It is heartening to note that despite a weaker economic climate, the direct to home (DTH) segment, which was pioneered by DishTV in India, continued to grow at a strong pace. Digitisation of Indian television has gained irreversible momentum, while driving higher quality and a superior offering to the consumers."
He further said, "We have extended the momentum gained during the last fiscal into the first quarter of FY10. Our revenues grew exponentially to Rs 2,521 million, a growth of 53 per cent over last year and I am glad to report that we achieved positive EBITDA for second successive quarter. These results are a direct outcome of our business strategy that is tuned to the needs of our customers."
Jawahar Goel, Managing Director, DishTV, said, "The Q1 results testify to the resilience of our business model. DishTV continued to consolidate its leadership position in the market through record customer additions every month. The outlook for the industry remains positive and the year ahead promises to be an exciting one for DishTV."
DishTV claims to be a market leader with 40 per cent market share in a five-player market. The company is also said to have sizeable sales and distribution infrastructure of over 800 distributors and 48,000 dealers across 6,600 towns – once again, the largest in the category.
The Indian DTH industry is expected to grow at more than 50 per cent annually in the next three years. The company would continue to focus on increasing ARPU, value added services, commercial sales (for example, hotels, restaurants, pubs, clubs, malls etc.), brand building and penetration, service capability ramp up resulting in value creation for the stakeholders.

OptaSense, a QinetiQ company, has successfully demonstrated improved sensitivity of its DAS Interrogator Unit (IU).
As part of its ongoing product development, a pre-production version of the 4th generation of the OptaSense DAS IU was used to acquire a Vertical Seismic Profile (VSP) on a Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS) well during customer trials this month in North America. In these tests the new 4th generation IU achieved the targeted 6dB increase, a four times increase in sensitivity over the previous 3rd generation system.
The next generation ODH4 Interrogator Unit will also have a wider receive bandwidth, finer spatial resolution and greater programmable flexibility so it can be operated simultaneously in one or more acquisition modes. These features will be implemented in the commercial release of the 4th generation IU due in Summer 2015.
Magnus McEwen-King, Managing Director of OptaSense said, "The development of this 4th generation system once again pushes the boundaries of known performance. Our DAS-VSP™ service is already reducing the cost of data acquisition. Our 5th generation system, which is in development with Shell, is also showing great gains that will see OptaSense DAS capability deliver on an extremely ambitious technical target."

Americans today consume 200 to 300 more calories daily than 30 years ago. Nearly half of these extra calories come from sugary drinks and can lead to obesity, diabetes and other chronic diseases. With every additional sugary beverage a child drinks daily, his/her chance of becoming obese increases by 60%.
Most people don't realize how easy it is to gain weight from drinking sugary sodas, juice drinks, sport drinks and sweetened tea and coffee drinks. Just one 20-ounce bottle of soda can pack 250 calories and the equivalent of more than 16 teaspoons of added sugars. Is the lemon-flavored iced tea any better? Not by much - with 210 calories and the equivalent of 14½ teaspoons of added sugars. Sugar-sweetened beverages add hundreds of calories to your diet each day.
Here are some tips to avoid sugary drinks:

Rock the Vote: Media Coverage of Women in Iraqi Elections
Last week's Iraqi elections received lots of media coverage, but at MMW we were mostly fascinated by women candidates, especially since election rules require 30% of the candidates be female.

You know all those sites featuring straight boys who fuck and suck each other? Well, in real life, that's not the way it always happens. Take this shoot from Dirty Boy Video. They hooked up this straight guy to do a video. First off, when choosing a porn name for himself, he chose "The Arm". Okay, sometimes straight guys are weird - we all know that. But The Arm? Anyway, the plan was that The Arm and Damien would jack off together, and when the time was right, Damien would make his move and start sucking The Arm's cock.
But The Arm (do I feel stupid calling him that!) caught on and said there would be no touching during his shoot.
So the two guys sit stroking on the couch. The Arm is watching a straight porno movie as he beats his meat and Damien stroking while watching he's actually The Arm jerking his rod.
In a way it's disappointing that The Arm is too straight and wouldn't let Damien suck on his cock, but watching these two horny guys jack off is fucking hot!
