According to Bosch, the 45-degree line helps align tiles more accurately by providing reference lines for both their straight sides and diagonal points. The unit projects its lines from a distance high enough above the work surface to avoid interference from debris and has a range of 65 feet. Its magnetic metal baseplate can be stuck to steel framing or attached with screws to walls to lay out vertical tile applications. It costs $159 online. Bosch, 877/267-2499. www.boschtools.com

You can advance your career or business. You can create a life you love.
If you are like most busy, ambitious, high potential professionals, you are stressed! You find yourself continually overwhelmed, over-committed, frazzled, and flat worn out.
- Maybe you are frustrated watching others succeed, while you can't seem to figure out how to advance your career or business. You struggle to navigate the career success ladder, or to find clients and customers for your business.
- Maybe the bureaucracy and lack of communication, focus, and stability in your company, or immediate team, drives you crazy. The continual uncertainty, and shifting priorities, makes you feel as if you are continually trying to swim against the tide.
- Maybe you are uncertain whether you are good enough to overcome the challenges you face.
- Maybe you lack confidence in your ability to lead your team, you struggle to keep them motivated, and producing the level of results you know they are capable of.
- Maybe you feel fearful dealing with confrontation or criticism, and this holds you back from being as effective and successful at work as you know you could be. It makes you flat miserable when you have to deal with difficult personalities.
- Maybe you feel as though you never have enough time to get everything done at work. In your personal life, finding enough time for relationships, family, friends, regular exercise, healthy eating, and prayer or meditation, seems impossible.
- Maybe you are tired of feeling like a rat on a wheel and tired of the lack of integrity in the workplace. Maybe you even dream about breaking out of the golden handcuffs and starting your own business so that you can choose who you want to work with.
- Or maybe you feel disappointed, conflicted and compare yourself to others, especially those you secretly believe are less talented than you. You see them making the money you want to make, driving the car you want to drive, going on vacation to the spot you'd love to visit, and living in the house of your dreams. No matter how much money you make, it never feels like it's enough for what you need. You are, by all accounts, successful but financial freedom seems unattainable.
You want to achieve better results and enjoy your life
The good news is that you can overcome all of these challenges, but only IF you are someone that understands the need for continual growth, investment in yourself, and action. If you are like the masses and want to live a mediocre life you can stop reading now because this message won't help you. Until you change your thought processes and actions, you will be incapable of changing the results you are getting.
You must start to live your life on purpose, by choice, not by chance. Stop drifting through life.
What is your dream? Get crystal clear in your vision for that dream. Where are you now and where do you want to be in 6 months or 12 months? Don't be one of those people that reaches the end of their life and says "I wish I'd had the courage to go after my dreams". Everything you need to achieve your dreams is within you but:
YOU must do the work
YOU must take action
YOU must invest in yourself and your vision.
To reach your dreams you must take chances and take risks, even when you are scared, or your dreams won't happen. Don't let challenges stop you from striving to be, do, and have more of what you want and know you can be. The time to prepare for future opportunities is now, it's too late once they appear. Preparation + Opportunity = Success.
You are the CEO of You, Inc. It's up to you to invest in yourself to develop the skills, confidence, assertiveness, patience, emotional intelligence, and influence you need to be ready for the next opportunity when it comes.
You must develop the ability to receive criticism, evaluate it, learn from what is useful, and discard the rest. You must learn how to be less governed by emotion at work, but retain your passion. Learn how to create more income, more clients, get a promotion, find contentment, think from an abundance mindset, and develop fearlessness. Learn how to lead and influence people, develop your people, stop procrastinating, develop high performance skills to get more of the right things done and free up time for what you want to do.
If you REALLY want to learn to lead and influence people, advance your career or find a new career that you are passionate about, or start a business, the time to start is NOW.
Success and wealth can become a reality
BUT understand this:
It won't happen without YOU doing the work and taking action.
It won't happen without YOU raising your awareness and taking responsibility for the results you are experiencing right now.
It won't happen without YOU changing your thoughts, beliefs and actions.
It won't happen if YOU are not prepared to invest in yourself.
So are you going to be one of the mediocre masses who will continue to do things the same way and get the same results over and over? Or are you prepared to do things differently?
So who am I and why should you care?
My name is Joanne Mitchell, and I am an executive and professional coach, teacher and speaker, trained and certified by the John Maxwell Team. John Maxwell is the number one leadership expert in the world, year after year. He has established THE BEST coach and speaker training program in the world.

If you are serious about taking your success to the next level in your career or business then I'm here to turbocharge your results
Think about it. Top athletes and CEOs know that having the right coach gives them a competitive advantage. The people at the top, where YOU say you want to be, understand the value of having a coach to get them to the next level of success. So doesn't it make sense that to become successful you should do what successful people are already doing?
Of course you can follow the masses and try to figure it out yourself, or just do nothing but gripe and complain that you are not 'lucky'. Or you can be smart, do what successful people do, and hire the right coach so you can achieve your dreams faster.
Today, as we seek success in an extremely competitive marketplace, few of us can afford the steep learning curve of life. Why wait? What would it be like to be wise, happy and successful this year versus waiting a decade or two? What would it feel like to finally achieve the success, and have the income level you dream about? Can you imagine getting control of your time and money, and getting back your passion for your career and life?

Eric Karabell (3:00 PM)
Hello all and welcome to the latest fantasy sports chat session. Tomorrow is December so we've got crunch time in fantasy football, for those still paying attention, but also feel free to toss up a baseball question. Year-round sports! Thanks for showing up and here we go...
John (Detroit)
Mike Williams (TB) vs Carolina OR DJax @ Seattle???
Eric Karabell (3:02 PM)
Can certainly make a case either way. Our rankings are posted. I and the staff each had Jackson two spots better, but Williams is the one that has scored two consecutive weeks. One of these weeks Jackson will go nuts and that will land him a big future contract.
jeff (Tempe, AZ)
Discuss reggie wayne (beyond the uber 2011 disappointment). You see his value taking another hit with Orlovsky under center or are things so messy in INDY it doesnt matter whos throwing the ball?
Eric Karabell (3:02 PM)
I don't think it matters who is slingin' it - among the remaining choices, I mean. Wayne has had one good week all season, and I don't see him doing much this week as the Colts get embarrassed by Tom Brady.
Jim (Ann Arbor)
EK - You're fairly high on Bowe. Do you think Orton gets the start? Palko is awful and the Bears D is good. My other options are Green, Brown, and Williams.
Eric Karabell (3:03 PM)
Bowe did fine on Sunday night, at least when Palko's passes were in his general direction. I think Orton will start and I think that will help Bowe, although he's been ok even since Cassel got hurt.
Jimmy (Azle)
In a toss up, do you ever start someone based on when they play? For example: if your opponent had Gates would you start San Diego's DST to try to cancel it out? Other option is Atlanta...
Eric Karabell (3:04 PM)
No. It doesn't matter to me what the other team is doing. Play the best option.
Bob (Cali)
I'm in a position where just a win is not enough. I also need maximum points. In this scenero should I play Palmer or Tebow?
Eric Karabell (3:05 PM)
Seems to me that the choice is Tebow either way, no? You wanna win... and you still pick the guy with the highest point potential.
John (Seattle)
Hey EK! Need a win this week to clinch the playoffs: 1 pt PPR: what do you think about using Spiller over Benson or SJax??
Eric Karabell (3:06 PM)
I don't think Spiller is very good. My ranks have Benson in the top 20, so apparently I like him best! And try not to think about the "need for a win"... don't we all need to win every week? Pressure doesn't really come into play. Just play your best choices.
Jackson (Florida)
What do you make of DMC's draft prospects for next year? This season has done nothing but strengthen the "brittle" tag but yet hes so darn talented. Where do you see, on average, DMC being drafted next year? I dont think i'll be able to take him before the 3rd round.
Eric Karabell (3:08 PM)
Yeah, but how good was McFadden when he was healthy? I can't say anything we've seen from him has been a surprise. Great but brittle player. I'd say second round, actually.
Victor Cruz (ID)
Am I going to stay consistent for my owners? Am I really a better option this week than Jennings, Fitz and my teammate, Nicks??
Eric Karabell (3:09 PM)
I don't know how much more Victor needs to do to prove his worth to anyone. He's been the best WR in fantasy the past month. And it looks legit to me. The Giants are in trouble, but they can't run the ball, so it's good for Eli and Victor.
EK: In ESPN leagues, Spiller can be used as a WR or RB. I have him in a PPR league and got 16.5 points out of him as a WR last week. Do you agree with this strategy going forward for Spiller owners?
Eric Karabell (3:10 PM)
Love it. I don't think Spiller is special, but he does enough to warrant flex consideration.
Marty (Shawnee, KS)
You're the highest on McGahee. He's dinged up (ankle) and has a tough matchup in Minny. Why the optimism?
Eric Karabell (3:11 PM)
Tough matchup? The Vikings are not good. And while in the past they have stopped the run, this season they're closer to the top 10 in allowing the most fantasy points to RBs. Plus, Denver is effective running the ball. McGahee is good.
J (cubicle)
why so low on Decker this week (and in general)? adverse to the Tebow risk?
Eric Karabell (3:11 PM)
Kind of hit or miss with Timmy at QB. I trust Willis more.
steelhedstew (oregon)
A little help please. putting ranks aside, I have had R. Helu all year and now with L. McCoy a question can I run with Helu
Eric Karabell (3:12 PM)
I think McCoy will play on Thursday. No doubt. But if he doesn't, you'll know before gametime and can switch it. McCoy is fantasy's TOP running back for the season. Replace the name Helu with anyone and it's the same... you gotta use McCoy.
Ben (Boston)
How do you think Beanie will fair this week against NOT the rams?
Eric Karabell (3:13 PM)
I'd be far more surprised if he got 200 yards as opposed to 20. Glad I don't own the fella anywhere.
Joe (Philadelphia)
Can I really sit Andre Johnson for Laurent Robinson or Percy Harvin? I'm leaning in that direction, but I'm not sure I can make that call. Am I just over thinking this?
Eric Karabell (3:14 PM)
I don't think it's an obvious choice, so go with your gut. I ranked them the order you named them, but it's not overthinking. I think Yates will be ok at QB.
Beanie (AZ)
And yet you rank me #14!
Eric Karabell (3:14 PM)
Well, there's obviously upside, even in a tougher matchup. But for two months I ranked Chris Johnson in that range, too. Didn't mean I trusted him one bit!
Tyler (Austin, TX)
As a heads up since you just answered a Victor Cruz question, he just popped up on the Giants injury report with a hip ailment. I thought I'd give you a heads up in case it helped convince you to answer my earlier question :-)
Eric Karabell (3:15 PM)
I think by Week 13 just about everyone is hurting in some way. Cruz should play. And he should play well.
Peyton Hillis (Lebrontown)
Im so going to show the world why i belong on the cover of madden this week!
Eric Karabell (3:16 PM)
Yeah, ok! Nice season from Hillis, eh? Although I will say of all the running backs I ranked worse than 25, I could see him having a big game. Though I don't expect it.
Jackson (Florida)
Follow up to the DMC question. Im an OAK fan (dont laugh things are looking up finally), I dont see how they let Bush go after this season (even if that means they tag him) but in the event Bush leaves and starts for another team discuss his draft stock for next year. Do you see him, depending on the situation, being a true #1 or highend #2?
Eric Karabell (3:17 PM)
Absolutely. If we knew M.Bush would get 15 carries a week, he'd be a top 12 guy. But we don't know that. Hopefully this doesn't turn into DeAngelo/Stewart.
Brandon (RI)
Baseball Question! Do you think Andrew McCutchen will improve from last year's somewhat disappointing season to be a top 10 outfielder? I have to keep him over Konerko, right?
Eric Karabell (3:18 PM)
Baseball! Let's get more! I don't think that was disappointing, 23-89-23. No question you keep him over the far older Konerko though.
Todd (Albany)
Who would you handcuff LeSean McCoy with, Dion Lewis or Ronnie Brown?
Eric Karabell (3:19 PM)
I'd say Brown, but if McCoy sits watch Vince Young throw 45 times. Of course, he might do that anyway. This is the year the ridiculous game plans on both sides of the ball finally caught up to the Eagles.
Brian (NY)
Better keeper for next year-- Masterson or Lawrie? Same salary.
Eric Karabell (3:19 PM)
Brett Lawrie is going to be Ryan Braun in 2 years. In more ways than one. Power, left field, enough steals... so yeah, it's Lawrie!
Jason (Long Island, NY)
Baseball keeper question: Do you believe that Jason Heyward will rebound this year and should be a keeper?
Eric Karabell (3:20 PM)
Yes. Lost season, hurt shoulder. Everything you thought about Heyward a year ago today still matters.
Norv (San Diego)
You may as well rank Rivers 32 because I'm not going to let him pass the ball and get hurt. In my fantasy league though, playoffs spot on the line, can you make the case to start Vince Young over Rivers?
Eric Karabell (3:21 PM)
Ha. I made the case... I ranked Young better. Best stat on Rivers, a top 5 guy from draft day is this: He's finished in the top 10 for fantasy scoring in only 2 weeks ALL season. Vince Young just did it last week.
Cody (Pitt)
Why does the question "Who do I handcuff Shady with?" Always come up? The answer is obvious, NOBODY!! Unless you are in a 16-team league, you aren't starting Lewis or Brown even if Shady gets hurt. If you are, you are in deep trouble anyway.
Eric Karabell (3:22 PM)
What he said! And pass the Primanti's sandwich!
Brian (NY)
Bumgarner is a top __ fantasy SP next year?
Eric Karabell (3:23 PM)
I'll say outside the top 35, but 35-40 range is ok.
mark (KC)
Would you drop Owen Daniels or hang onto him to see how they change the game plan for a 3rd string QB? I could drop a backup RB like LT and pick up a TE off waiver with upside for the week.
Eric Karabell (3:23 PM)
I'd move on from Daniels. Clearly he's not a major factor in the passing game. Perhaps it changes a bit with Yates, but he can throw downfield if they let him.
Ben (Boston)
If you had to pick three baseball keepers from this group... Fielder, Ellsbury, Granderson, D. Jennings, King Felix, Asdrubal
Eric Karabell (3:24 PM)
Ellsbury, Felix and ... Fielder.
John (Baltimore)
In my league I can play a TE at a WR spot - would you play both A.Hernandez and Finley this week? Or sit one (which one?) and play Harvin or Manningham if healthy?
Eric Karabell (3:24 PM)
I don't know why any Finley owners would be clamoring to use him. Look at the stats. Not doing much. I'd play Harvin over both tight ends, and Hernandez.
Lindsey (SC)
Rankings are blocked at my office, but the chat isn't...go figure...I'm having to decide between Vince Young and Tebow for the third week in a row...and it's making my head hurt...does a tough road crowd in Seattle tip the scales enough for you to bench Young...even though he's putting up solid numbers?
Eric Karabell (3:25 PM)
Tebow puts up numbers every week. And he wins games, which is only relevant for us in that the Broncos have to keep playing him. Honestly, 15-plus points EVERY week... I'd play Tebow.
Chip (NC)
Did Manningham's injury affect his ranking? If the swelling in his knee is gone and he is probable by Friday, will you move him up?
Eric Karabell (3:26 PM)
Nope. I'm tired of relying on him, and Cruz has passed him and just about every other WR in the entire league. Manningham lost his chance.
Chris (from the coach)
Baseball: Keeper league can only keep 3 Albert, Cano, Cliff lee, or Tulowski
Eric Karabell (3:26 PM)
Throw back the pitcher.
Nick (Atlanta)
If you could only keep one would it be Eric Hosmer or Brett Lawrie?
Eric Karabell (3:26 PM)
Lawrie. He's better statistically but also there are a million first basemen out there.
Joel (MI )
Just acquired Blount for the stretch run. Two juicy matchups with Carolina in the horizon. Your thoughts on him ROS ?
Eric Karabell (3:27 PM)
He is in my top 10 for RBs for the rest of the season, and I have him No. 5 this week. SO, I am a fan, yes.
Neal(slc) [via mobile]
Hey EK, Tristan said earlier that Bush should be the lead back after DMC comes back. Is there any way you could see him losing his job due to injury? I like Bush, but I feel DMC is the more talented runner. Thanks.
Eric Karabell (3:28 PM)
Tristan's the man. And I concur. He's played so well, I don't see how Bush can sit. It's like Laurent in Dallas with Miles returning. And the Raiders would want to use McFadden sparingly to keep him healthy, too.
The Man (In The Mirror)
Any concerns that #7's numbers are going to be an issue with his body about to fall apart? I'm in a good spot with Tebow on my bench, but Big Ben usually nets me a lot of touchdowns.
Eric Karabell (3:29 PM)
Why would his body fall apart? No concerns. Honestly, how many games will be enoughfor the Timmy haters? 10?
Pat (NJ)
Mario had one bad games against the Eagles and then gets hurt. Prior to that he had scored in three straight and you loved him. You can't jump ship that fast with Packers game coming.
Eric Karabell (3:30 PM)
Sure I can. I just did. He's hurt and the Packers blow everyone out.
Bobby (KC)
Keep Justin Upton for a 5th rounder, or Corey Hart for a 16th rounder? 10 teamer.
Eric Karabell (3:30 PM)
Definitely Upton. Even if it was a second rounder.
Sean (Auburn)
Eric, Last year I never paid attention to rankings, chats, or columns and I won my league. This year I wanted to step up my game and every week read the blogs, come to chats, and watch the rankings. My buddies say I'm overthinking it this year. I don't buy it. I've been getting wisdom from multiple sources but still making my own decisions. I blame not making the playoffs on two things: the Bucs (have Blount and Freeman) and my heart wrenching love for Gates.
Eric Karabell (3:31 PM)
Good for you. I think people should read our stuff for information and enjoyment, really, then make their own decisions. Perhaps if you've got a tough decision you'll recall something I said in a chat or something Berry said and then go with it, but these are your teams. And luck clearly plays a role, too.
Mitch (NC)
Any insight on what made your Fitzpatrick ranking so much lower than your peers?
Eric Karabell (3:32 PM)
Yeah. He basically stunk for two months, then he lights up an overrated Jets secondary and now people love him again. Not me.
Scott (Northglenn, CO)
So you think there's a nonzero chance Laurent remains a solid flex play, with more if Austin reaggravates or is brought back slowly?
Eric Karabell (3:33 PM)
I think Laurent is the top Dallas WR this week, and it wouldn't surprise me if it continues. I think Dez is the one in trouble.
Matt (Shelton, CT)
Orlovsky graduated in my senior high school class, any chance it would make non-biased sense to roll with him against the Pats instead of Moore and Orton? (1/3 point per completion, 6 for a passing td)
Eric Karabell (3:34 PM)
I could make the case because it will be 21-0 after 10 minutes and he'll be throwing, but I don't really believe it. Not like Moore or Orton are great plays... I'd go Moore.
Xander (Philly)
While I dont like you low-balling Fitz, I'm intrigued with your "overrated Jets secondary" comment. No one says that. Way to be an innovator. VJax, Stevie, AJ Green...pick one (starting opposite Harvin cause he gets RB touches and most of Ponder's targets).
Eric Karabell (3:36 PM)
Well, dare to be different. I'd go all three of those WRs over Harvin, but that's just me. Vincent Jackson could go for 25 points... or two. But he's still worth it.
Luigi - Marios Brother (Nintendo world )
Confused - if Mario is healthy, and playing with all the 3 WR sets the Giants run, and the Packers blow everyone out....wont my super brother be on the field a ton ?? I dont get your argument?
Eric Karabell (3:37 PM)
I guess the argument is Mario is hurt, and if it's 21-0 in the first quarter the Giants don't bother playing a hurt player in a sure loss. Hey, I liked Manningham for awhile. One of my big sleepers this season. His BEST game all year is 13 fantasy points. Not sure why everyone still loves him.
Jorge (Harrisonburg)
You seem like a pretty savvy guy, do you think Shane Vereen gets ~10 touches in garbage time vs Indy?
Eric Karabell (3:38 PM)
It's all an act. Yeah, I think the possibility is there he sees major fourth quarter action, but generally in a 35-0 game you don't see a team piling on a college team. There's still respect there.
Dave (NB)
Why is Mendenhall ranked ahead of Helu this week? They both good starts?
Eric Karabell (3:39 PM)
Mainly because one of their coaches is off his rocker and just playing around with the running back chores.
Lloyd (WV)
That's a bold anti-Dez statement. Laurent's on a roll but Dez and Miles are far more talented aren't they? Romo also has more history with Dez and Miles
Eric Karabell (3:40 PM)
Robinson has 7 touchdowns in 5 games. I'd say he's pretty talented as well. In a year, of course I say Dez. In December, I can't. History and talent mean nothing...play the hot hand.
Bill (Atlanta)
Lynch has been ridiculous the last few weeks. Start him in flex over Dez Bryant?
Eric Karabell (3:40 PM)
Absolutely. It's like with Tebow... what more does Lynch have to prove to be an every week play? He scores every week!
Anthony (Cali)
take it from a Cowboys fan ...... Dez has more talent, but Laurent is the better fantasy WR right now.
Eric Karabell (3:41 PM)
Well, I think that has been my point!
Eric Karabell (3:41 PM)
It's like saying how could anyone be a better fantasy closer than Mariano Rivera? Well, every year someone tops him in value... doesn't mean they are necessarily better.
John (Los Angeles)
You included Dallas Clark in your TE rankings. Is he actually close to playing, or was that just your prank to see if we're paying attention?
Eric Karabell (3:42 PM)
Ha! Does it matter? I don't do pranks. I think he will play.
K (philly)
I though Steve Johnson was left for dead. Do I flex him or Maurice Morris?
Eric Karabell (3:42 PM)
He was. All the Bills stunk before the Jets game for more than a month. It's why I can't totally get back on the bandwagon now. But I'd still use Stevie over Mo.
Thomas (Boston)
You ever consider that L. Robinson has these TDs because they are keying on on Dez, Witten and Murray? I think you are the best fantasy guy on ESPN but you suffer the same problem of over focusing on numbers and not on reality. My point, once the secondary starts moving over to Robinson he is done.
Eric Karabell (3:44 PM)
Now that's funny. We deal in numbers here. I agree that's WHY the numbers are coming to Laurent, but I don't know why you think that will change. The reality creates the numbers...
Mark (NY)
Eric, if Vick returns next week (wk #14) do I play him or Stafford? I'm tied for first.
Eric Karabell (3:45 PM)
Well, you can worry about it next week... but I can't see how I would choose Vick there. By the way,I think there's a 30 percent chance Vick is done for the season. They keep losing...why get Vick hurt more and risk 2012? Vince is a free agent anyway... just sayin', Andy isn't going anywhere, so I don't see him pushing Vick.
Josh (DC)
Trade deadline this Friday. In a league where all TDs count for 6, am I ok playing matchups with Palmer and Tebow in the playoffs, or should I be selling my minimal RB and WR depth for an upgrade?
Eric Karabell (3:46 PM)
I think you're fine. Both are playing well enough. Again, Tebow can't throw a lick, but that reality does not matter. Statistically he's 15-20 points every week! Play him all the time. He's a top 10 guy.
Erik (CT)
Biggest upside this week Mario, Knox, or D. Moore?
Eric Karabell (3:46 PM)
Probably Moore. Palmer is playing well and the matchup works.
Brian (Raleigh, NC)
What are your thoughts on Peyton Hillis going forward? He had way more carries than expected last week. Does he return to last year's form? Debating starting him over Spiller and Mo Morris this week and it'd be great to know the old Hillis will return!
Eric Karabell (3:47 PM)
No, Brady Anderson is ... I mean, Hillis is not the same guy. That said, I can make the case he'll get you the same 8 fantasy points Spiller and Morris will, but for upside, I probably choose Spiller there.
Scott (Northglenn, CO)
Strategy...at this point, is it smarter in a 12 team league to carry a backup TE (I have Graham) in case of injury, or a high upside lottery ticekt type (McKnight or J. Rodgers) if my lineup is fairly solid?
Eric Karabell (3:49 PM)
I don't think fantasy leagues are won by backup tight ends. McKnight or Rodgers (I think you might mean Buffalo's Johnny White there) are better to own.
Brad (Cincy)
Going to lose this week when Peterson sits. Tell me which RB is less worse, Spiller or Gerhart
Eric Karabell (3:50 PM)
That's the attitude we wanna see! I'd use Toby. And by the way, to the people that send the same question 100 times... it's not gonna be answered. On principle.
Brad (Carmel, IN)
The rankings are helpful, but not for flex (comparing RBs and WRs). Not complaining, just observing. As a result, my conundrum is whether to roll the dice with V. Jackson or play R. Mathews or B. Green-Ellis instead. Any help is appreciated!
Eric Karabell (3:52 PM)
Well, sorry you don't like the flex rankings. But wouldn't those - released tomorrow - answer the question? Anyway, no hard feelings! I think Mathews is the better play here. Coming off a career high rushing game, is healthy enough, and Tolbert is a relative afterthought.
Bill (TN)
All this Lawrie Love: Need 3 Keepers: Pence, J. Bautista, Adam Jones, Lawrie, Cruz
Eric Karabell (3:52 PM)
Joey Bats, Lawrie and Hunter.
Dan O. (Hawaii)
How do we know how many times to submit? I've heard you can only see a few at a time and you get thousands.
Eric Karabell (3:53 PM)
All true... but seeing the same question 100 times is kinda annoying! I look for good questions...
Kris ((Knoxville))
Next year who would you rather have, A.J. Green or MJD?
Eric Karabell (3:53 PM)
Jones-Drew. And really, in a year Gabbert should improve. MJD has done this with no passing game!
Bill (TN (Lawrie?))
Just want to say that EK is telling the truth...only submitted my Question once. BOOM
Eric Karabell (3:54 PM)
And BOOM it shall be!
Kris ((Knoxville))
Quick One: Why do you have the Pats D so low this week, wouldn't they be a great play against Indy? I was planning starting them over the Steelers, am I wrong here?
Eric Karabell (3:55 PM)
It's still a poor defense, and the fact is that against the Eagles, with a backup QB and nothing at WR, the Pats registered a minus-one for fantasy. The Colts can get a score or two... Pats just don't create turnovers.
Hank (Submitting 101 Times!!)
You didnt say anything about 101 times EK. What do you see from Hanie? Should I use him in the playoffs? I currently own Freeman....
Eric Karabell (3:56 PM)
Yep, we allow 101. I don't think Freeman is great, but he does have Carolina twice more... Hanie, really? Go find Orton on free agency!
Fred (AZ)
Mike Wallace is a top __ WR in 2012? Trying to decide on my keepers before the trade deadline.
Eric Karabell (3:56 PM)
He's in my top 10 for sure. Perhaps top 5.
Mike (CT)
Is Steve Smith a legitimate keeper, given that he went in the 11th round? It just feels like he has been around forever, and so he must go the way of the dinosaur sometime soon.
Eric Karabell (3:57 PM)
I think he's a legit keeper. You mean like all of a sudden he will get old and play like Ochocinco? I don't see it.
Eric (Sacramento CA)
Please help me not start the wrong D again this week. Niners vs Rams, or Bears vs Chiefs
Eric Karabell (3:57 PM)
I'd start the Niners, since I ranked them first.
Keith (Chicago)
I feel like you always ahd to much coffe when I read your chats! Manningham over little and doug baldwin?
Eric Karabell (3:58 PM)
I have actually never had a cup of coffee in my life. Neither are good choices this week.
Brian (NY)
Ranks say Marshall over Colston... Can you explain the why?
Eric Karabell (3:59 PM)
Not really. Just a hunch there.
Al (Chi)
What kind of stats do you see for Strasburg for the upcoming season?
Eric Karabell (3:59 PM)
Let's say 165 innings, 2.75 ERA, 1.05 WHIP, 12 wins, 190 strikeouts. Not bad, eh?
Eric Karabell (4:00 PM)
Well, I guess our time is up for this week! Thank you for your attention and for having some fun. It's fantasy football - and baseball - and it's meant to be fun! Anyway, we couldn't do this without you, so I appreciate it. Have a great day and best of luck in Week 13 and beyond!

Hugh Jackman, I will love you till the day I die.
Same here.
Ditto his boyfriend.
Leave me out of this!
Sassy even when it's cold out.
He's going to break out into spontaneous one man performance of 'Cats', isn't he? I can tell from the look in his eyes.
wolverine looks like a real dandy here (not that there's anything wrong with that)
"Yeah, I'm just hanging out on a park bench again. What, you mean I don't have to? It's called Grindr? That sounds fabulous."
Everyone says he is one of the nicest guy in Hollywood. Way to go, Hugh!

This interview appeared in Saga magazine, 1981
ERINGER: You formed your school about two years ago...
WERBELL: It existed before, but got formalized two years. Its purpose is to train law enforcement people, private bodyguards, security personnel, etc. It's a very concentrated course in which we teach all the countermeasures against poltical assassinations, terrorists--that sort of thing.
ERINGER: Could it not be said that a school for antiterrorists could double as a school for terrorists?
WERBELL: Well, how can you tell?
ERINGER: Precisely.
WERBELL: We investigate everybody that comes here very thoroughly--right down to their socks. They have to furnish us with authentic documents testifying to their good reputation--no criminal activity, not being nuts or alcoholics. Now, everything you do in a countermeasure, of course, teaches you how they're going to do it, so you can counter them. You never know who's going to turn bad. But even the CIA has that same problem.
ERINGER: Have you ever rejected applicants to your school?
WERBELL: Yes, indeed. We have canned a couple. Tossed 'em out.
ERINGER: For what reasons?
WERBELL: Bad attitudes. We felt that some of them were potential danger spots I say some--we're only talking about two people.
ERINGER: You charge $2,500 for your 10-day course, and that doesn't include accommodations and most meals. How much if that do you make in profit?
WERBELL: (Laughs.) I can can tell you, but you'd be horrified at how little it is.
ERINGER: What I'm getting at is this: Is money the motivation for running the school?
WERBELL: Well, naturally, partially, but it really is not a big profit producer at all. We've got too many top-notch, high-priced instructors.
ERINGER: So what is your major motivation?
WERBELL: Well, I guess there's really several things. One of them is, of course, I felt there is a tremendous need for it. Plus the fact that I can't stand just not doing anything.
ERINGER: Do you recruit mercenaries from graduates of your school?
WERBELL: Well, in some cases, yes.
ERINGER: You can find employment for those that have successfully gone through your course?
WERBELL: We don't claim to do that. We can recommend them in certain areas where we get enquiries.
ERINGER: Do you keep track of Cobray graduates?
WERBELL: Oh, yeah.
ERINGER: In what sense?
WERBELL: We have a continuous on-going record of what they're doing because they all check in with us, which is extraordinary, too.
ERINGER: Suppose they don't check in with you. Do you keep track of their activities?
WERBELL: Yeah. So far none of them have turned bad.
ERINGER: That's reassuring, considering what they've been taught.
WERBELL: Well, once again, even in the CIA you have people turn bad.
ERINGER: Do you report the activities of your graduates to any U.S. intelligence agencies?
WERBELL: Nope.
ERINGER: How about your students from foreign countries? When they return to their respective countries do you report their activities to their governments?
WERBELL: Yep. The government send them.
ERINGER: What government sends them?
WERBELL: You know, there are certain things I really can't talk about. But frankly, we/'re expecting a number of Thai students over the next few months. Others come from Central and South American countries. Most of our students are Americans.
ERINGER: Students sigh a waiver relinquishing Cobray from responsibility in case of injury or death. Have there been any injuries or deaths?
WERBELL: I think one guy got a couple cracked ribs --through his own fault. He was a smart-ass and our martial arts guy tamed him down a little bit.
ERINGER: Let's go back in time. When did you first become involved in this kind of work?
WERBELL: World War II--1942--when I joined the Office of Strategic Services.
ERINGER: What missions did you undertake?
WERBELL: China, Burma, and then I went into French Indochina, before the war was over when the Japanese were occupying it.. Out outfit brought Hi Chi Minh out of hiding. And, of course, Ho Chi Minh was a big buddy of the United Stated States in those days. What spoiled it was our stupidity in going to the aid of the French.
ERINGER: Tell me about one such mission.
WERBELL: I went in on prisoner recovery, and I also took the surrender of General Sumita with 80,000 Japanese the day the atomic bomb was dropped. That was in San Che Province.
ERINGER: What did you do after the OSS was disbanded?
WERBELL: We were in an outfit called SS Unit, which was the next phase of our clandestine operations, before the CIA--which doesn't mean we played in the band.
ERINGER What does it mean?
WERBELL: Special Operations, which is the parachute-behind-the-lines unit. I made a number of jumps.
ERINGER: Did you join the CIA when it was formed in 1947?
WERBELL: I have never been CIA. I have worked very closely with them.
ERINGER: Have you ever been paid any anount of money by the CIA?
WERBELL: Boy, that ios the question that keeps popping up.
ERINGER: What is your response?
WERBELL: Nope.
ERINGER: But in his book, Spooks, Jim Houghan wrote that you "worked under contract to the CIA in the 1960s, organizing amphibious landings against Cuba from a base in the Dominican Republic."
WERBELL: I was with an entirely different facility.
ERINGER: So when you left the SS Unit, what did you do?
WERBELL: Well, I became a civilian. At that time I was a captain in a parachute unit and I didn't like it. So I transferred into Military Intelligence and stayed in there in reserve and didn't do a damn thing. So I quit and went into the advertising business. I was advertising director of Rich's department store, the biggest department store south of New York. That lasted about a year, and then I got back into geopolitics.
ERINGER: You missed the excitement?
WERBELL: Well let me tell you a little story. You see, a guy went to a house of pleasure. And he picked up this broad and took her upstairs--the $100-a-whack type. And she had a beautiful accent. He said, "My goodness, where are you from?" Well, she was raised in Haverford-Philadelphia, Mainline, you know, comes from a socially prominent family. He says, "Holy Christ, what's a cultured, charming woman like you doing in a whorehouse." And she said, "I guess I just got lucky." You get it? I guess I was just lucky.
ERINGER: So how did you make your comeback?
WERBELL: What do you want me to do, pull down my pants and show you my palms?
ERINGER: I'm just asking how you got back in the business.
WERBELL: Like the babe said, I guess I just got lucky. One of my major assignments--it was about 1957--was to keep Batista in business. Not that everybody was favorable towards Batista, but we knew at that point what Fidel was all about. Actually, Fidel never fought a battle. Fidel never did a goddamned thing. The students did all the fighting. That son-of-a-bitch never fought a battle, he never fired a round. However, my job at the time was to keep Batista in.
ERINGER: What went wrong?
WERBELL: The New York Times, The Washington Post--those no-good crap liberal bastards we have in this country. That's what went wrong.
ERINGER: What do you mean?
WERBELL: The so-called liberal press that is communist bought and owned. The New York Times--what a bunch of crap those guys are. The Washington Post. They're traitors. Quote me on that.
ERINGER: At what point did you start Military Armaments Corporation?
WERBELL: About 1967. It was originally called Sionics. We produced silencers.
ERINGER: To whom did you sell them?
WERBELL: The Philippines. Thailand. South Vietnam. The Israelis. The raid on Entebbe was all done with my weapons and silencers.
ERINGER: Is that company still operational?
WERBELL: I saw the writing on the wall. They wanted to retire me because I was such a prickly thorn. First, I was president, then I was chairman of the board, and you know what happens when you're chairman of the board at a young age. Next step is the boot. I told 'em, the only way to retire me is buy my stock. So I sold my stock and two years later they folded and went under. Now I've got Defense Systems International.
ERINGER: Have you ever gotten into trouble with the U.S. Government because of your international arms dealings?
WERBELL: The Firearms, Alcohol and Tobacco people are always bugging me. I've had some real battles with those bastards. I think they're all pinheads.
ERINGER: What sort of battles?
WERBELL: Concerning their regulations. And they've come up with the most goddamned stupid ones I've ever heard.
ERINGER: Are you still engaged in mercenary recruitment?
WERBELL: What a question. You know it's illegal in the United States? We don't recruit mercenaries. We recruit security personnel.
ERINGER: You still doing that?
WERBELL: Under certain conditions.
ERINGER: What conditions?
WERBELL: I can't get into that.
ERINGER: Is it true you once bombed Vietnam with live rats infected with bubonic plague?
WERBELL: (Laughs.) Yeah.
ERINGER: Was that bombing sanctioned by the U.S. Government?
WERBELL: No.
ERINGER: It was all on your own?
WERBELL: It was special operations.
ERINGER: For whom?
WERBELL: (Laughs.) The group that I worked for.
ERINGER: And who was that?
WERBELL: That's unimportant.
ERINGER: Are you a religious man?
WERBELL: I don't believe in organized religion. I'm religious in the sense that I committed myself to Jesus a long time ago. I don't make a big stink about it. And the Pope, incidentally, sent me a blessed cross when he was here in the States. And the Pope himself sent word that they were including me on the mass for the sick every week, which is very flattering. The way it happened is this: his major Bishop assistant was the nuncio in the Dominican Republic when I was leading the loyalists in the revolt. I'm rather proud of that.
ERINGER: The Pope realizes you're sick?
WERBELL: Yeah, I've got cancer. We think we've got a piece of it under remission, but I don't know. There's no real way to find out except surgery and I've got a legal document that prevents any of them from doing tricks while I'm in surgery.
ERINGER: Tricks?
WERBELL: No life support and no bags hanging or anything like that. It's not my lifestyle.
ERINGER: Is it true you're taking Laetrile, the controversial vitamin derived from apricot pits banned by the FDA?
WERBELL: Yep. I'm convinced that Laetrile had a major effect pulling me through the first bout. When I came back from five weeks at the clinic in Alabama, one of my conventional doctors said, "I don't know what the hell you'r doing, but keep mit up. it seems top be working." But I couldn't take all the damn vitamin pills. I was taking 50 pills with every meal.
ERINGER: What would you most like to be remembered for?
WERBELL: I don't give a damn about being remembered. But if I've got to be remembered for something, I'd like it to be for being a good military officer and a patriot.
Mitchell WerBell III died in 1983.

In August, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell asked, "Why did tax cuts become something we pay for?" This denial of economic reality stems from the same Republican disconnect in which one can be a deficit hawk while advocating extending the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest, which would add at least $700 billion to the deficit over 10 years. Former Fed chairman Alan Greenspan, a Republican, stated that extending the cuts without offsetting them could be "disastrous." Yet here's Senator David Vitter of Louisiana espousing MConnell's fanciful views. Watch:
Vitter: Well, first of all, I disagree with the premise that in order to keep tax rates where they are and not increase taxes, somehow we need to pay for that. I think that's Washington-speak, not Louisiana-speak. [...]
Q: It's a misnomer to say this continuing, for the top rates, wouldn't have to be paid for. You would have to pay that $750 billion because it was supposed to sunset. It's not an increase, it's a sunset.
Vitter: Just to be clear, the premise that I disagree with is that to avoid a tax increase, we somehow have to pay for it. It's not the government's money, it's our money. That's the point. (h/t Truthout)
The spending cuts Vitter proposes do not make up for the $700 billion in decreased government revenue and increased deficit. In addition, warning against cutting taxes on small businesses is based on a standard Republican falsehood. Such cuts do not affect the vast majority of such businesses:
Analyses from the Joint Committee on Taxation and the Tax Policy Center, a nonpartisan research organization, show that less than 3 percent of filers with small-business income pay at the top two income tax rates, and many of those are doctors and lawyers in partnerships.

Responding to the Cumbria-wide figures, Jonathan Isaby, chief executive of the TaxPayers' Alliance, said: "Leaders in schools must ensure they live up to the highest legal standards required by law as the most serious accidents can ruin lives.
"In such cases, it is entirely appropriate for compensation payments to be made.
"But sometimes accidents do happen which aren't anyone's fault and the authorities must root out anyone who is playing the system with spurious demands for taxpayers' cash.
"We must never forget that every penny paid out in compensation is a penny taken away from teaching budgets."

Another Vodafone VIP classic as Vodafone McLaren Mercedes F1's Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button are invited to a photo shoot with a difference.
Rather than being the focus of the shoot, this time the famous Formula 1 duo are let loose as photographers directing an 'eccentric British summer' fashion shoot.
This is a photo shoot with a twist as Hamilton and Button discover their wacky, creative flair and are tasked with everything from choosing the wardrobe, to selecting props and taking the final shots.
With Lewis behind the camera and Jenson (as his assistant!) directing the models this is a great bit of cheeky fun and an amusing distraction for Jenson and Lewis before they get behind the wheel at the next Formula 1 2011 Grand Prix.

Watch a spider explode with babies after being attacked by another spider
And it continues!
A man in California trapped these spiders in his home before he filmed this spine-tingling footage.
Mathew Duncan said: "I had caught both spiders in my house and I had no idea that one of them had tonnes of babies on its back.
"So I'm glad I caught it and fed it to the other before I had 20-30 spiders disperse in my home. I would love to know what type of spiders these two are."
In the short clip, the two spiders Duncan caught go head-to-head in a battle.
As soon as they clash a number of young spiders are sent scrambling around the jar.
If you're an arachnophobic probably best sitting this one out...

Why did my PS tell me to not wear a bra after my breast reduction surgery?

No Bra After Breat Reduction Surgery?
I usually recommend that the patient stay in a supportive surgerical #bra for the first few weeks. In fact, many patients like it since it provides some extra support and a sense of protection.
If you feel that you need more #support or wonder why your surgeon had given you the instructions that they did, you have every right to ask questions. Good luck!

Why did my PS tell me to not wear a bra after my breast reduction surgery?
There are no standards as to what kind of bra you should wear post op but many patients feel much more comfortable with a bra without underwires which might affect the scars

Why did my PS tell me to not wear a bra after my breast reduction surgery?
There is no "standard" when it comes to the use of specific bras or garments after breast surgery. In other words, different plastic surgeons may have different practices when it comes to postoperative dressings/bras. Therefore, best to check with your plastic surgeon in regards to his/her rationale.
For example, in my practice, patients wake up with a surgical bra in place. This surgical bra, although not attractive, is supportive and used for about one month after surgery (some of my patients have been known to burn the bra ASAP). Then, patients transition to a soft sports bra. Wired bras are used when breast scars have reached maturation and patients have full sensation along the breast skin. Best wishes.

Carl Edwards says NASCAR drug-testing policy needs a tweak
LOUDON, N.H. – One Sprint Cup star is suggesting a tweak might be needed to NASCAR's random drug-testing policy as drivers reacted with anxiety, shock and faith Friday to the news of A.J. Allmendinger's positive test.
Allmendinger, who said he tested positive for a stimulant, is suspended temporarily while awaiting the results of his "B" sample, which will be tested next week by Aegis Sciences Corp. in Nashville.
The same laboratory tested Allmendinger's first sample, and Carl Edwards floated the idea of perhaps implementing a fail-safe measure to provide peace of mind.
"It's an imperfect world," Edwards said before practicing his No. 99 Ford at New Hampshire Motor Speedway for Sunday's Lenox Industrial Tools 301. "People are imperfect. Tests are imperfect. One of the first things my trainer told me when he started working with me is, 'Be careful. Anything you ingest is made somewhere, and you don't know what that factory was making the day before it made the product you're using.'
"My point is I think the drivers need to get together, and we need to have our own group that is paid by us, that works for us, to be here in tandem with the NASCAR drug testers and have them test us at the same time so that we have not just an 'A' and 'B' sample, but an 'A' and 'B' testing facility, and we can all agree on that facility. I don't think it would be a contentious thing. I think that would remove almost all doubt in any situation of a positive test.
"I think until we do that, no matter what is found to be positive, no matter what the test results are, there is always going to be that little question of, 'Maybe there was a mistake.' "
Asked to respond to Edwards' remarks, NASCAR spokesman David Higdon said the sanctioning body was satisfied with the policy and wasn't planning any changes.
Brad Keselowski, Allmendinger's Penske Racing teammate, said he didn't agree with Edwards' suggestion.
"I don't think we need more politics in the sport," Keselowski said. "That's what groups like that bring in, and it's a greater question with the issue at hand of A.J. There have been people who say it doesn't matter what (the drug) was. I disagree with that. It matters to me because there's always that level of uncertainty that I have over any athlete or driver of what they're taking or not taking.
"I want to believe any athlete wouldn't be dumb enough to take a drug that's illegal. It stands to reason if you had the knowledge to not do anything that dumb. I hope it wasn't. I hope it was a stimulant. If that's the case, it makes a huge difference."
Keselowski clarified the difference is that a stimulant might have come from a supplement, which is legal, vs. an illegal recreational drug.
"Society has made a case for one and not the other, and the sports world is in limbo, and we don't have an answer," he said.
But he added he favored a zero-tolerance policy for the use of supplements, too.
"It's my belief that nothing should be allowed," he said. "I don't think you should take Flinstone pills. I think you should have to overcome it. I think it's a bunch of (baloney) that people are allowed to take supplements. I don't think any athletes should be. Nothing should be allowed. … You should just man up and and drive the damn race car."
Edwards said the concept initially was broached not long after NASCAR implemented a new substance abuse policy and random testing before the 2009 season, but there hadn't been serious discussions since.
"That's just something I thought of a little bit this week because what does a guy that doesn't drink, use any drugs, have any chance of being in violation, what does that guy really have to gain by subjecting himself to these tests?" Edwards asked. "He has the potential, because it's an imperfect world, of having some sort of false positive. I think that's really scary for a lot of the guys in this sport."
Indeed, there was some worry expressed in between consensus that NASCAR's policy was sound. Many drivers, such as 2003 champion Matt Kenseth, wanted more details before taking a firmer stance.
Allmendinger said he tested positive for a stimulant, but NASCAR, citing its policy, hasn't confirmed or specified that. A stimulant is defined as an agent that produces a temporary increase of the functional activity or efficiency of an organism. It is among nine categories of banned substances in NASCAR. In the 2012 Sprint Cup rulebook, stimulants are defined as including amphetamine, methamphetamine, Ecstasy (MDMA), Eve (MDEA), MDA, PMA, Phentermine and other amphetamine derivatives and related compounds.
Kenseth said he wanted to know what Allmendinger tested positive for and was withholding judgment until then. But the Roush Fenway Racing driver also expressed confidence in NASCAR, which removed Allmendinger from the No. 22 Dodge just a few hours before last Saturday's Coke Zero 400 at Daytona International Speedway.
"When you're racing at 200 mph, you want everybody to be right," Kenseth said. "That's what the program is for, so you don't want to be out there with somebody if there's something wrong with them.
"Being a driver and knowing how serious that we all take it and how hard we work at it, it seems unbelievable that somebody would do something or put something in their body that they don't know about and take that risk. … I think the drug testing policy is a great thing. I think there's always a fear of the unknown. I've never in my life done an illegal drug, and I don't use any supplements. I just eat stuff that you guys can all buy in the supermarket, so I don't worry about it that way. But there is a fear of the unknown."
Dale Earnhardt Jr. said he has asked NASCAR questions about the policy, but it hasn't quelled some concerns about whether the testing can be 100% accurate.
"I'm certain that as big and structured an organization as NASCAR is and the agency they have that works with them on their drug program, they can't afford to make any mistakes," Earnhardt said. "I have to believe that they are making the right calls and the right choices, and there is a reason to make the call they made. Even though you don't get what you want in terms of details you have to believe that the program is true, and it's definitely a good thing to have."
The policy does allow some dispensation in explaining why an "A" sample was positive. When a NASCAR licensed member has a positive test, they have 72 hours to interview with the medical review officer and provide information on medial prescriptions, and they normally can request a "B" sample before NASCAR or the team is notified.
In the case of Allmendinger, NASCAR was notified within a few hours of Allmendinger of the positive test, and the sanctioning body took the extraordinary step of temporarily suspending a driver for the first time before the process was complete.
"I think they did a lot of things when they put that system in place to make it as fair as they can, and I really believe that NASCAR is going to err on the side of caution," Kenseth said. "I think they're going to be pretty darn careful before they do something that could really jeopardize somebody's career. I'd have a hard time believing that it's not pretty rock solid, or I don't think NASCAR would have reacted like that."
In a statement Wednesday, Allmendinger said he never knowingly took a prohibited substance and was reviewing his prescriptions and dietary supplements to check if it might have been caused by an over-the-counter product. Pro athletes have been warned by drug experts not to take supplements because they aren't heavily regulated and can include unknown ingredients.
Five-time champion Jimmie Johnson said he submits a list of supplements and medications he is taking before the season and then updates it with changes.
But he admitted some ignorance of the system, too, noting he initially thought Allmendinger's test had been conducted at Daytona and not a week earlier at Kentucky Speedway because he didn't think the results took that long.
"I've just been trying to get up to speed on the whole process myself," he said. "I guess when you're not in question, you just don't worry about it. But we're all paying attention now and wondering."
Edwards and Keselowski said they were intimidated by the testing process even though both avoid supplements or anything that would put them at risk.
"I've never taken drugs of any kind; it's a phobia of mine," Keselowski said. "But I go in that room, and I'm still scared. Because you know if something goes wrong, it's a death sentence for your career. You know it's in human hands. By that very nature, there is potential for error. Whether (the test) is positive or negative, it's still a death sentence."
Said Edwards: "They're trying to keep our sport as clean as possible, trying to do it the best way, but when you look at a sport as complex as ours (and) you start dealing with chemistry and the chain of possession. When you walk into the testing area, and there are all these cups sitting there, I don't know where they've been, who has been in there, who has messed with them. I think if there's one more layer that we could put on it, I think that would be the best thing you could do."
If drivers were to form an independent testing group to back up NASCAR's program, it might be viewed as tantamount to starting a union — a concept that has been frowned upon in a sport that labels its athletes as independent contractors.
But some are turning to other unionized professional sports for guidance in navigating NASCAR's substance abuse policy.
Veteran Jeff Burton said he takes supplements to aid in his physical training but sticks to a rule of not using any supplements that aren't approved in the NFL players handbook.
"If A.J. was training hard trying to do the right thing and put something in his body that he read on a label and was told was OK and turned out not to be OK, that'd be horrible," Burton told Sirius Satellite Radio's NASCAR channel. "His livelihood and reputation are on the line, and that's not fair to anyone. On the other hand, if he did that out of negligence and took something without investigating it, than that is on his shoulders.
"You have to take it upon yourself to know what you're taking at all times, but the best way around it is if the guys in the NFL are taking it, 99.9% of the time you're going to be OK."
Burton said he would be shocked if Allmendinger had been taking a recreational drug, and he predicted the failed test would prompt many of his peers to contact NASCAR or program administrator Dr. David Black with questions.
"A.J. Allmendinger is not a dumb person," Burton said. "It wouldn't surprise me when all this came down, he was either ignorant to the fact of what he was taking, or he wasn't told the truth about what he was taking. That's where I hope it's heading, as silly as it sounds. It'd be much better to be victim of miscommunication than a willing participant in something that would be detrimental to his safety or mine."

Single-seat multi-functional super-maneuverable fighter.
The Su-35 aircraft is designed on the base of technology applied for development of the fifth generation aircraft, with the experience of the Su-27 multipurpose aircraft family operation. Su-35 is intended to increase the Russian Federation Air Force combat potential and "Su"-family aircraft export potential. The aircraft has an ability to use the whole range of existing and prospective "air-to-air" and "air-to-surface" weapon, including high-precision ones. On February 19, 2008 the first prototype made its first flight at the Flight Scientific Research Institute named after Gromov, and on October 2, 2008 the second aircraft made its first flight from JSC "KNAAPO" airfield. In August, 2009 the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation has concluded the Government Contract for the Su-35S aircraft production and deliveries as from the year of 2010.
Su-35 is designed to gain air superiority through manned and unmanned aircraft destroying by guided missiles in medium and long range engagements and dogfights; to destroy ground and surface targets by all type of weapon, as well as destroy the enemy ground infra-structure facilities located very far from the base airfields heavily protected by the active AAD system. Su-35 is a profound modernized variant of the Su-27 fighter aimed to enhance the aircraft combat efficiency when attack aerial, ground and sea targets. The Su-35 design incorporated the best engineering solutions worked through on the Su-27/Su-30 family fighters. The aircraft maintenance and support system meets the world's standards requirements.
New engines with all-aspect TVC nozzle and thrust of 14,500 kg are installed on the air-craft.

The aircraft boasts of new avionics with the use of multiplex communication links, and phased array radar. Wide-angle colour head-up display and two large-format colour MFDs form the aircraft indication system. Due to the cockpit lightening equipment the pilot can use night vision goggle.
The aircraft is equipped with the auxiliary power unit providing for the cockpit and aircraft equipment power supply and conditioning while ground maintenancte without ground support means application.
The Su-35 aircraft is designed by "Sukhoi Design Bureau", but its production is mastered at the Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aircraft Production Association named after Gagarin.
The Su-35 merits are the following:
Supreme flight performance, superagility mode
Long range information targeting system
Advanced jam-resistant secure communication system providing data link between the aircraft and ground-based command centers
High-performance air-to-air and air-to-surface long- medium-, and short-range guided weapon mounted externally on 14 hardpoints

This review is from: XFX Radeon HD 6870 DirectX 11 HD-687X-CNFC 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card
Worked well for 3 months
60 Fps on Skyrim Ultra settings
No stuttering for the first 2 months
Games normally run like a dream
Can be overclocked but I don't recommend it (not much performance increase)
After a while card temps sky rocketed 60c idle-80c idle
Stuttering became a huge issue
New Amd drivers very unstable
RMAing this card later this week
Louder than my Cpu fan but nothing you cant ignore
Other Thoughts:
At first the card was great but something just went terribly wrong hopefully I'll have a replacement card by the end of the week. I believe either the fan is malfunctioning on start up, or the temp sensors on the card are broken. While in game computer has shut down without warning (no bsod). Tested this, all signs point directly to the Gpu.
I recommend the 12.1 catalyst most stable no stutter.
As I said before will be RMAing this card hopefully this will stop my problems.

|[jira] [Commented] (LUCENE-4975) Add Replication module to Lucene
|Thu, 02 May 2013 16:08:16 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4975?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13647655#comment-13647655 ] Shai Erera commented on LUCENE-4975: ------------------------------------ So here's an overview how the Replicator works (it's also document under oal.replicator.package.html): At a high-level, producers (e.g. indexer) publish Revisions, and consumers update to the latest Revision available. Like SVN, if a client is on rev1 and the server has rev4, the next update request will upgrade the client to rev4, skipping all intermediate revisions. The Replicator offers two implementations at the moment: LocalReplicator to be used by at the server side and HttpReplicator to be used by clients to e.g. update over HTTP. In the future, we may want to add other Replicator implementations, e.g. rsync, torrent... for HTTP, the package also provides a ReplicationService which acts on the Http servlet request/response following some API specification. In that sense, the HttpReplicator expects a certain HTTP impl on the server side, so ReplicationService helps you by implementation that API. The reason it's not a servlet is so that you can plug it into your application servlet freely. A Revision is basically a list of files and sources. For example, IndexRevision contains the list of files in an IndexCommit (and only one source), while IndexAndTaxonomyRevision contains the list of files from both IndexCommits with corresponding sources (index/taxonomy). When the server publishes either of these two revision, the IndexCommits are snapshotted so that files aren't deleted, and the Replicator serves file requests (by clients) from the Revision. The Revision is also responsible for releasing itself -- this is done automatically by the Replicator which releases a revision when it's no longer needed (i.e. there's a new one already) and there are no clients that currently replicate its files. On the client side, the package offers a ReplicationClient class which can be invoked either manually, or start its update-thread to periodically check for updates. The client is given a ReplicationHandler (two matching implementations: IndexReplicationHandler and IndexAndTaxonomyReplicationHandler) which is responsible to act on the replicated files. The client first obtains all needed files (i.e. those that the new Revision offers, and the client is still missing), and after they were all successfully copied over, the handler is invoked. Both handlers copy the files from their temporary location to the index directories, fsync them and kiss the index such that unused files are deleted. You can provide each handler a Callable which is invoked after the index has been safely and successfully updated, so you can e.g. searcherManager.maybeReopen(). Here's a general code example that explains how to work with the Replicator: {code} // ++++++++++++++ SERVER SIDE ++++++++++++++ // IndexWriter publishWriter; // the writer used for indexing Replicator replicator = new LocalReplicator(); replicator.publish(new IndexRevision(publishWriter)); // ++++++++++++++ CLIENT SIDE ++++++++++++++ // // either LocalReplictor, or HttpReplicator if client and server are on different nodes Replicator replicator; // callback invoked after handler finished handling the revision and e.g. can reopen the reader. Callable<Boolean> callback = null; // can also be null if no callback is needed ReplicationHandler handler = new IndexReplicationHandler(indexDir, callback); SourceDirectoryFactory factory = new PerSessionDirectoryFactory(workDir); ReplicationClient client = new ReplicationClient(replicator, handler, factory); // invoke client manually client.updateNow(); // or, periodically client.startUpdateThread(100); // check for update every 100 milliseconds {code} The package of course comes with unit tests, though I'm sure there's room for improvement (there always is!). > Add Replication module to Lucene > -------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-4975 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4975 > Project: Lucene - Core > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Shai Erera > Assignee: Shai Erera > > I wrote a replication module which I think will be useful to Lucene users who want to replicate their indexes for e.g high-availability, taking hot backups etc. > I will upload a patch soon where I'll describe in general how it works. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
