Bulls v Crusaders, Super 14 semi-final, May 22
Bulls and Crusaders set for Soweto showdown

The Bulls and the Crusaders will renew their fierce rivalry in the unfamiliar setting of Soweto's Orlando Stadium on Saturday with a prize of a place in this year's Super 14 final awaiting the winner.
As defending champions and the form side throughout the campaign the Bulls enter the clash as favourites but due to the impending Fifa World Cup in South Africa they have had to relinquish home advantage normally reserved for the top two finishers at the end of the regular season. As a result the eagerly-awaited match will take place at the 40,000 capacity football stadium on the outskirts of Johannesburg rather than the Bulls' regular Loftus Versfeld home.
The two sides met just two weeks ago at 'Fortress Loftus' and played out arguably the most thrilling game of the season with the Bulls squeezing home 40-35 in controversial fashion. That high-octane, seven-try clash was enthralling from start to finish and all eyes will be on the sold-out Orlando Stadium to see if these two sides can conjure a repeat showing.
That defeat failed to halt the Crusaders' almost annual charge into the post-season with a comprehensive victory over the Brumbies in their most recent outing sealing their passage into the semi-finals. Success in Christchurch saw them book a provisional home semi-final but fate eventually saw them slip to fourth in the ladder as the Stormers eventually claimed second place. The Cape Town-based Stormers did so thanks largely to the generosity of the Bulls with their South African rivals fielding a second string line-up for their clash in Newlands last weekend. That decision by Bulls coach Frans Ludeke drew criticism far and wide and only time will tell if his front line stars benefit from the rest or struggle to recapture the form that got them here in the first place.
Unsurprisingly the big names are back in the Bulls' line-up for Saturday's game with captain Victor Matfield leading the way. Scrum-half Fourie du Preez and fly-half Morne Steyn have also been recalled after being rested against the Stormers. Former Springboks No.10 Jaco van der Westhuyzen comes in for winger Gerhard van den Heever, the Bulls' leading try scorer with eight tries, who remains suspended for a spear tackle against the Crusaders earlier this month.
Jaco Pretorius returns from injury to partner Wynand Olivier at centre while Deon Stegmann will start at No.6 after being rotated with Derick Kuun throughout the season. Lock Bakkies Botha was not included after he was suspended for four weeks for entering a ruck in a dangerous manner just minutes into Saturday's loss to the Stormers.
In contrast, the Crusaders line-up has a settled feel with coach Todd Blackadder making just one change to the side that ended the Brumbies' play-off hopes last weekend. Scrum-half Kahn Fotuali'i returns to the reserves bench in place of Willi Heinz. The in-form Fotuali'i had been dropped for breaching recovery protocol dictated by the team after their 35-40 loss to the Bulls in Pretoria two weeks ago. Elsewhere there were minor injury concerns surrounding fly-half Dan Carter and prop Ben Franks who are both carrying ankle niggles but both are expected to be passed fit to play.
The pulsating nature of the last meeting between the sides remains fresh in the memory and much of the debate leading up to this clash has centred on whether the Crusaders will adopt a similar all-out approach this time.
The word from the Crusaders is that they will with assistant coach Daryl Gibson promising more of the same. "We've tried not to over-think this game too much. The Bulls are a very set team, they do certain things in certain parts of the field and they've got a very good lineout," Gibson said before confirming his side will look to keep the ball in hand.
"They kick to exert pressure and we think they won't do anything drastically different. Both teams will go in with gameplans largely the same as the last two games. We certainly won't be changing a great deal," he added. "You saw the Stormers employ similar tactics against them. It's really suiting the style we want to play at the moment, we've got a lot of outside backs who want to get the ball in their hands and run. We've got a good front eight to exert pressure in the set piece. It's a formula that's worked well and it's one we'll continue to use."
In contrast, Bull stalwart Matfield, who will rack up his 100th Super Rugby appearance on Saturday, is unsure whether the Crusaders could afford to play a similar high-risk style.
"The last time we played they were chasing a bonus point to stay in the semi-final mix, so their approach was understandable. This is a semi-final where bonus points are of no consequence, so we're not paying too much attention to what they are saying in the media," said the Springboks lock. "Semi-finals have usually resembled test matches quite closely, in that teams are reluctant to take risks in their own territory and prefer to play for field position then pressure the opposition into errors."
Despite all the talk of a potentially free-flowing game there is no doubt that this game will be brutal with the battle at the gainline set to decide the game. The war of words in the lead up to the clash has centred on the scrum with the hosts accusing their rivals of illegal tactics but the lineout battle is set to be equally enthralling. While experience up front will be key where the likes of McCaw and Matfield will labour at the coalface, the ability of some of the fresher faces, such as the Crusaders' Sean Maitland and Colin Slade, to handle the intensity of the occasion may prove more pivotal.
The Bulls have played seven-time champions the Crusaders in the semi-finals three times in the past four seasons, winning twice at home and losing once in New Zealand, and this latest meeting has the makings of classic encounter. The Bulls appear to hold a narrow advantage but if the Crusaders are to be beaten then it looks as though they will go down with all guns blazing.
Bulls: Zane Kirchner, Jaco van der Westhuyzen, Jaco Pretorius, Wynand Olivier, Francois Hougaard, Morne Steyn, Fourie du Preez; Gurthro Steenkamp, Gary Botha, Werner Kruger, Danie Rossouw, Victor Matfield (captain), Deon Stegmann, Dewald Potgieter, Pierre Spies.

My problems started in January with the handset switching itself off the only way it would go back on was to take out the battery and re-place the battery after 10/15 seconds then turn the phone back on for it to work again, it also cuts me dead off calls, constantly on 'H' and that is so frustrating. T-Mobile were not that helpful they said all they can do is keep sending it for repair, I insisted on a new handset (iPhone) which was my 1st choice anyway, t-mobile said they cannot do that and that if I have a problem with the phone I have to contact HTC myself!! that my monthly contract payment is for the sim not the phone. I cannot keep going on like this without a decent phone it's like i've lost my right arm and left leg i'm practically useless without it, and I seriously don't know what to do next.

How did the Simon and Garfunkel song in the soundtrack of The Graduate go? Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Last week, I waxed about Italian flat parsley and why it and its curly first cousin ought to be in your kitchen garden. Rosemary, too, needs a prominent pot you can bring indoors before falls first frost, I said in a subsequent blog post.
This week, the salute goes to the remaining two herbs memorialized in the words and music of Paul Simon sage and thyme.
Humble sage its the herb thats impossible to kill if you get it off to a decent start. Even after the first frost, when the squash has been stripped and the basil made into pesto, sage hangs around as a reminder that no turkey dressing is complete without it.
Ive picked leaves frozen leaves off my sage plant when nothing but a brown butter and sage sauce is necessary to set off a last-minute bowl of gnocchi or butternut squash ravioli.
Better to pick it while it is fresh and later dry it, or you can do what Bottom Line publication Best-Ever Kitchen Secrets suggests:
Cut leaves in small enough pieces to fit into an ice cube tray compartment. Add a little water to each compartment. Freeze. Once completely frozen, transfer cubes to a resealable, plastic freezer bag and label. One ice cube yields about a teaspoon of sage. Drop the cube into a small strainer and run hot tap water over it. Now its almost as good as what you pick fresh from the plant.
Heres my hint about sage in the freezer. Dont store sage or any other aromatic herb near cookies, cakes or anything containing butter, unless you want that fragrance and flavor imparted into everything on the same shelf. Best to take the resealable bag and place it into a lidded Tupperware container or even into a leftover cottage cheese container. The point is, fragrant herbs need double insulation from baked goods.
Sage is married to pork and just about every sausage recipe I know. Its the hunters herb of autumn. I think this earthy and fragrant seasoning is under-appreciated, but it is easily grown in our climate.
Take a division from a home garden if you can. That could mean bending back an outer branch by weighing down the stem with a rock. Eventually the offshoot can take root. By next spring it will be easy to cut off that section with a sharp spade. Sometimes babies root on their own, not far from the mother plant. Now is the time to find them.
Or you can do a traditional root stem cutting. Go to a garden book for instructions on propagation.
Sage, like most herbs, needs well-drained, sandy soil. It grows best in sun, but will tolerate light shade.
I dont think theres an appreciable difference in varieties sold at the nursery. Look for S. officinalis. A more beautiful variety, pineapple sage, is an annual that is not as well suited for culinary purposes. Theres also tri-color sage, but, it too, is more ornamental and less flavorful.
Or you can start sage by seed, right now, indoors. Germination is slow. It could take up to three weeks for first shoots to appear. Transplant it once you have a sturdy three-inch start.
No kitchen garden is complete without this hardy, grey-green taste of fall whose leathery leaves are a reminder that a little goes a long way.
Heres my version of a Mario Batali classic brown butter (noisette) and sage sauce. I use it on squash-filled ravioli or any hearty pasta that accompanies game or pork. Batali doesnt use the garlic. I do. Its good either way.
Rub a clove of garlic around a cold, 10-12 inch sauté pan. Toss what remains of the garlic, because you want a slight, not overpowering, garlic flavor in this sauce. Brown about 4 tablespoons of butter until it begins to bubble slightly, then remove pan from heat. Immediately add 8 to 10 torn sage leaves. Theyll sizzle. Take a half lemon and give it a healthy squeeze on the crumbled sage leaves. Add drained pasta. Top with half a cup of grated parmesan. If you want a thinner sauce, add a few tablespoons of salted pasta water.

Gunmen in southern Pakistan opened fire at a Christian church service today (Sunday), killing at least 16 worshippers. Hours later, an explosion ripped through a bus near the border with Afghanistan, killing at least three passengers and wounding more than 15 others.
The church attack occurred in troubled Punjab province, when authorities say gunmen began firing indiscriminately on church-goers after killing a sleeping police guard. A Protestant service was under way at the time in the Roman Catholic-owned church.
Pope John Paul issued a statement calling the massacre a tragic act of intolerance. No one has yet claimed responsibility for the attack, or for the bus blast in a heavily-guarded suburb of Quetta (Pakistan) near the Afghan border.
In recent weeks, violent protests have erupted in Quetta against Pakistan's support for the U-S-led campaign in Afghanistan.
The U-S-led campaign is aimed at the network of suspected terrorist Osama bin Laden -- the chief suspect in the September 11th suicide hijackings in the United States.
Pakistani police were assigned to guard Christian churches shortly after last month's terrorist attacks on New York and Washington.
Rival Shi'ite and Sunni Muslims have been fighting in Pakistan's southern Punjab region for years. In 1997, Muslim rioters in southern Punjab attacked about a dozen Christian churches and a school, after claiming some Christians had blasphemed Islam by allegedly desecrating the Islamic holy book, the Koran.

text: With the recent spam attacks we have been receiving, I've figured out a way for the phone guides to help 'clean it up' I don't know if guides can edit/delete posts, but i'm pretty sure they can move them. So, my idea, is to create a Spam forum, and like the FAQ forum, you can't post in it. BUT, the phone guides can move blatant spam posts there to clean up garbage, making it a bit easier on mods to clean it up, as they only need to look in one place to clear most of the garbage out. Of course this won't be 100% effective, but I think it'll help.

Yorkshire Drivers Urged To Check Their Vehicles
12:01am 23rd August 2012
Drivers are being urged to make sure their vehicle and passengers are safe before setting off on journeys this bank holiday, as research out today (Thurs 23rd Aug) shows a huge proportion of drivers are failing to take a few minutes to conduct potentially life-saving checks.
The survey by road safety charity Brake and Direct Line shows nearly four in ten (39%) set off on long journeys without checking their tyres are in a safe condition with the right pressure, while a similar proportion (41%) fail to make sure lights and indicators are working. More than one in four (26%) don't bother to check oil and water and the same number (26%) don't ensure washers and wipers are working.
Across all these vital checks, women are less likely to do them than men and young drivers far less likely than older drivers (see breakdown below). More than one in four (28%) young people fail to undertake any of these checks before long journeys, compared with 10% of all drivers. Brake and Direct Line are highlighting that it only takes a few minutes to carry out basic but essential safety checks on tyres, oil and water, windscreen wipers and washers, windows and mirrors, lights and indicators.
The survey of 1,000 drivers also revealed many are not checking themselves and their passengers, including children, are safe and secure before setting off:
- More than one in five (21%) admit they don't always check passengers are belted up, with an alarming one in 20 (5%) saying they never check;
- Nearly three in ten (29%) never check passengers' head restraints are correctly positioned to prevent whiplash, while 37% could not identify the correct position (see advice below);
- One in seven (16%) admit driving with a child passenger not in an appropriate child car seat.
Julie Townsend, deputy chief executive at Brake, said:
"Getting ready to set off on holiday or another long journey can be stressful, but drivers need to remember that their number one priority is making sure they and their passengers arrive safely. It only takes a tiny problem with your vehicle to turn a family trip into a tragedy. If you're rushing to get off on holiday, or on any journey, please take the time to conduct simple checks that could prevent a devastating crash. It only takes a few minutes to check your vehicle is safe, and everyone is properly restrained, but it could mean the difference between life and death."
Andy Goldby, Director of Motor Underwriting and Pricing at Direct Line, said:
"It is important to ensure your car is in a roadworthy condition. By ensuring you undertake simple checks you can minimise the risk of a crash or breakdown and there are benefits to your pocket as well, as ensuring your tyres are inflated to the correct pressure will reduce your vehicle's fuel consumption. Even if your car is in a fit state to travel it is essential to ensure you and your passengers are too. Seatbelts, the correct size child car seats and head restraints in the right position can all help prevent and reduce the severity of an injury. Quick simple checks before you start your journey can make a difference to when and if you get to your destination."
In 2010 (latest data available), 39 people were killed and another 2,178 were injured, some seriously, because of crashes where vehicle defects were a factor. This includes problems with tyres, brakes, lights, and mirrors, or overloading.
Last year more than 13,000 people were convicted of driving with a vehicle or part in dangerous or defective condition. More than 3,300 were fined more than £200 for the offence.
It's estimated seatbelts have saved more than 50million lives since they were first made compulsory for front-seat passengers in 1983. You are twice as likely to die in a crash if you're not wearing one. Unbelted rear seat passengers kill about between eight and 15 front seat passengers every year by crashing into the back of their seat, and an unrestrained child in a 30mph crash can hit the chair in front with a force of 30-60 times their body weight.
Not having a correctly positioned head restraint can lead to whiplash in a crash, as the body is held in place by the seat back, but the head moves backwards, bending the neck. Whiplash can cause pain, permanent disability and even death.
Advice for drivers
Making sure your vehicle is in good working order before you set off needn't take long.
There are a few simple checks you can do yourself to make sure your vehicle is as safe as it can be.
- Tyres have a tread depth of at least 3mm (any less is risky in the wet), are free from cracks, buckles or bulges, and are at the right pressure (using a gauge to check).
- All lights and indicators are working properly by having someone else stand outside the car as you switch them on and off.
- Windscreen wipers and washers are working by testing them while the car is stationary. Make sure your windscreen cleaner and water are topped up.
- Oil and water levels are correct.
- Windows and mirrors are clean and clear, and the latter positioned properly.
- Brakes are working, by applying them gently while driving very slowly in a safe, flat place with no other road users around. If they feel different to how they usually feel - such as taking longer to 'bite' or are harder to push down or are making squeaking or grinding noises - you need to get them checked with a mechanic immediately.
If you notice any problems, get them fixed straight away, and consult a garage if you have concerns.
You should also check everyone in the vehicle is properly restrained before setting off:
- Children under 135cm in height are correctly strapped into a child restraint that's right for their size and weight, and properly fitted. Buy restraints that meet modern safety standards. Read more.
- All passengers over 135cm are wearing seatbelts and have a correctly positioned head restraint, so it is right up against the back of the head with the top level with the top of the head (so the head can't move backwards).
- Any luggage or other items are safely packed in the boot out of harm's way and so they won't move about. Make sure your vehicle isn't overloaded.
It's also crucial for drivers to get a good night's sleep before any long journeys, and take breaks at least every two hours to stay alert.
Results breakdown
Do you carry out the following maintenance checks on your vehicle whenever setting out on long journeys?
- 26% of all drivers don't check oil and water levels, including: 21% of male drivers; 29% of female drivers; 57% of young drivers (age 18-24); 24% of older drivers (age 25+)
- 26% of all drivers don't check windscreen wipers and washers are working and topped up, including: 23% of male drivers; 28% of female drivers; 60% of young drivers (age 18-24); 25% of older drivers (age 25+)
- 32% of all drivers don't check windows and mirrors are clean and clear, including: 31% of male drivers; 32% of female drivers; 70% of young drivers (age 18-24); 30% of older drivers (age 25+)
- 39% of all drivers don't check tyres have legal tread depth, the right tyre pressure and are in good condition, including: 35% of male drivers; 43% of female drivers; 75% of young drivers (age 18-24); 38% of older drivers (age 25+)
- 41% of all drivers don't check lights and indicators are working properly, including: 37% of male drivers; 44% of female drivers; 80% of young drivers (age 18-24); 39% of older drivers (age 25+)
- 10% of all drivers check none of the above, including: 6% of male drivers; 13% of female drivers; 28% of young drivers (age 18-24); 9% of older drivers (age 25+)

Injured John Glenn homecoming queen spurs title run
Morgan Goldstein has battled through numerous injuries on the soccer field since seventh grade and was sidelined for her senior season at John Glenn High School in Elwood.
Despite not taking the field in her last season of high school, Goldstein's spirit has remained high and she was rewarded Friday night with the title of 2015 homecoming queen.
The crowning was a boost to Goldstein, who has remained involved during Glenn's 2015 season as a team manager and has enjoyed the Knights' magical run to the Suffolk County Class A finals.
"It is great to know that for the rest of my life I can say I was homecoming queen," said Goldstein, who will be rooting on the Knights when they face Islip in the Suffolk County Class A title game at Dowling College at 4 p.m. Wednesday. "I was pleasantly surprised, and it was definitely an honor."
After incurring multiple broken bones during the last five years including to her wrist, shoulder, arm and ankle, Goldstein opted to not risk further damage and made the difficult decision to put away the shin guards.
The 2015 season has turned into a memorable one with the Knights set to appear in the Class A finals and aiming for program's first county title since 1995 after a 1-0 semifinal victory against Shoreham-Wading River.
Goldstein has helped organize head coach Shannon Colligan's stat book during the historic campaign.
"She still wanted to be a part of soccer, but she just didn't want to break any more bones," said Colligan. "She is a hard worker and a great kid."
Off the soccer field Goldstein has been active in Glenn's student council and will be helping to organize the school's senior prom to be held at Atlantis Marine World in Riverhead. She has also found fulfillment serving in the school's Habitat for Humanity club, which has helped restore houses in Wyandanch and Mastic Beach.
"She is a very rounded young lady," said Colligan, a former standout Glenn girls soccer player who coached Goldstein on the varsity and junior varsity level. "She asked me for [college] recommendations, and I am glad to do so because she is such a great kid."

P1 First Person: Should suspects remove their hands from their pockets?
By Sergeant Anthony Ciampi
Westbrook (Maine) Police Department
Over the years, I have noticed that we police officers tend to be creatures of habit and routine. It's understandable that habit is a part of what we do; from shift schedules, to break time; to the manner in which we conduct certain investigations; and too many others to list. We're logical thinkers who like predictable actions and outcomes and seek to find solutions to problems. We like to know-and want others to know-that we've "taken care of it" and that the task was done right. Even in our courtroom testimony, we proudly answer, "Because that's the way I always do it," when our performance and integrity are in question.

Johan Elmander – Breaking news
Hello, my name is Johan and I have my dance band here
I have started the psychological warfare against Johan Elmander, and I sent a few SMS messages to him to air the mood. There he had the nerve to say that they would win 8-0 against us?!? Against us? ha ha, isn't he gonna play I wonder! No, my dear Johan, on Sunday there will be a whole lot of butt kicking, and you and I will play the lead roles. Period! But Johan is a really nice guy, and he invited me to a christmas dinner. But is he really so nice that everybody says? No, I'm not so sure, I think he is a real clever guy, so I said NO to the dinner out off fear of food poisoning. A Swede has never managed to out smart a Norwegian, and we will not start now either. But there is a little trap he could made use of, and that is that I'm lappish too, and he could have used that to his advantage. But vigilant as I am I saw that coming.
But what do we really know about this Elmander guy?
– He has 13 goals for Sweden, and that calls for great respect! (Although it is ONE goal less than what I have for Norway, and I'm a midfielder! Of course he has just over 50 games, and I have a little over 60. But hey, details smetailes.)
– He was voted Sweden's best dressed man in 2008. Oh really? Let us hear what his teammates say. Quote Steinsson: his fashion sense is terrible! (True story)
– And I found this in a Swedish magazine: Your dribbling skills is kicking tha ball on one side of the defender and run on the other side!
- Yes, it's probably my signature trick… but it works since I'm fast and strong.
Are you working on your beach muscles?
- Well, I need to be strong in my whole body so I can keep the oponents on a distance. With that I might get some beach muscles…
How much do you bench?
- Close to 100 kilos I reacon.
And on sunday we will see how the beach boy and his muscles do..

Thanks for posting the insightful video of Bolton traveling to Blackburn on game-day. Those suits looked more like Leeds kits, but whatever it takes to get them psyched for the match, I guess. Their pre-game is a bit odd, but so is their football. Good luck on Sunday, Morton!! All of your fans in Chicago will be listening on RadioRovers to hear you drive in your freekicks, and hopefully score a stunner from open-play. Blackburn alive!!!

Hi, Morton, I have a somewhat serious question, and I doubt you can answer it, but if you can, I am very curious: I saw a Premier League World segment a while back on Jason Roberts concerning his philanthropic endeavors, and while it portrayed a brilliant side of a true professional, as well as an extremely compassionate man, I saw a different side of him with his goal "celebration" against Newcastle. He was pushing you all aside and obviously trying to make a point to Sam that he was upset with his lack of appearances as of late. I know it must be a touchy subject, but can you shed any light on it? I really respect him as a person [solely based on what I have seen in the media, of course] but I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt, as there is often much more than we are privy to. As a fan, you always hope for the representatives of Blackburn to be the most upstanding of people, but that is up to what we believe in as individuals. Was that "celebration" cause for concern in your eyes for one of your close teammates? I respect the situation, if you cannot answer, but it would be wonderful to get a response on the subject, as it is difficult to get any word on these issues when you live in the midwest of the United States!! I hate to pry, but I really want Jason to stay with Rovers, and seeing something like that along with some of the stories in the press make me think his time in Lancashire is short. Thank you for this blog and for the chance for your loving fans to access you through a personal portal, Mr. Pedersen. And thank you so much for committing to Rovers for a what could be 10 years!! You were right to say that few stay with one club these days, and Blackburn fans couldn't be blessed with a better person than you to share those years with!!!

Hei Morten,
i stedet for å flagge Huseklepp til Blackburn, kan du ikke tipse dem om Harmeet Singh? De må jo ha kjennskap til ham fra før.. Minner dessuten de indiske eierne om at han er det nærmeste de kommer en indisk stjernespiller..
Lykke til mot Bolton, vi går for tre poeng.

Hey Daniel. Jason is a fantastic person and I hope that he will stay in the club as long as I'm here. He is one of the nicest persons I'ver ever met, and his celebration at Newcastle is no topic at all in the club. Actually I haven't thought about it until you mentioned it, and I don't think he was making any point to Big Sam. But of course, if you are as good a player as Jason and you don't play, your obviously not happy with the situation, but Jason is a true professional and does the only thing that helps against few appearances, and that is to work harder and better than everybody else. He has, and now he is playing, scoring and giving assists and contributing to the teams climbing on the table. And I love it, because I really like playing with him. I hope that gave you somewhat answer to your question?
Hei Eirik, ja det hadde vært utrolig morsomt å fått Harmeet hit, sammen med Husekleppen! Og vi har et veldig godt nettverk som ser på spillere som gjør det bra og som kan hjelpe oss. Og i den forbindelse vil jeg sterkt anta at Harmeet er en spiller som er i radaren. Og sannsyligvis ikke bare hos oss, men hos mange klubber rundt i Europa, for Harmeet er en kvalitetsspiller og det vil overraske meg veldig hvis ikke han havner i en større liga. Og jeg vil gjerne ha han hit!

Thanks a bunch for the response, Morton! That is exactly what I was hoping to hear too, and I very much appreciate the response – Its not everyday a fan gets to interact with one of his sports heroes like this. Good luck at Bolton today!! Hopefully you, and Jason, can get on the board!!

Mobile backhaul transition required for wireless services
Strain on Networks
As data delivery moves into a new paradigm of next-generation wireless networks that provide data, video, and voice services, one of the major challenges for service providers is provisioning enough mobile backhaul to fuel intense data demands.
Mobile backhaul (see Figure 1) is the network for transporting mobile traffic between cell sites (BTS/NodeBs) and radio controllers (BSC/RNCs). Backhaul is one of the major contributors to the high costs of building out and running a mobile network – estimated to be approximately 25-30 percent of total operating expenses. As demands to support increased mobile data traffic grow, it is important that operators optimize their networks with the most cost-efficient backhaul techniques.
The Problem with TDM Backhaul
TDM circuits have historically inter-connected base stations to regional network controllers, which worked fine for voice-only systems or with low-bandwidth data traffic. However, the rapid growth in mobile broadband traffic has overloaded TDM circuits and providers are now unable to keep up with the uptick in wireless traffic growth.
Adding more TDM circuits to address this challenge is not a viable option since the recurring monthly costs for legacy backhaul technologies (PDH, ATM over PDH, and SONET/SDH) increase linearly with traffic. The relatively flat average revenue per user (ARPU) that an operator can charge for enhanced services prevents carriers from passing these increased expenses on to consumers. Operators are thus looking to move to packet-based backhaul techniques using IP and Ethernet to gain a lower cost per bit. Using Carrier Ethernet for wireless backhaul allows operators to support large bandwidth increases from cell sites, while keeping operational costs in check. Operators can significantly reduce their cost per connection by moving from TDM to Ethernet (see Figure 2).
Making the Leap from TDM to IP/Ethernet Backhaul
In a recent survey of Global Service Providers by Infonetics, 100 percent of service provider respondents claimed to have already deployed IP/Ethernet somewhere in their backhaul network. Most deployments were "hybrid," retaining TDM for voice due to clock synchronization requirements. Service Providers are implementing a "phased" migration to IP/Ethernet (see Figure 3), due to the fact that unlike TDM, Ethernet was not designed to carry synchronous information, and cannot "natively" align clock frequency across devices in the network to the level of accuracy and stability required for the set-up, hand-over and reliability of mobile phone connections.
The first phase is a hybrid implementation where Carrier Ethernet is used for packet offload of data services, and TDM is retained for voice. This approach is not an ideal solution, as it forces carriers to maintain and pay for two separate networks. The ultimate goal is phase two, in which a single Carrier Ethernet network is used to backhaul all services. Infonetics' survey of global service providers indicated 79% of service providers plan to move to a single IP/Ethernet mobile backhaul for carrying all traffic. Before pursuing this final stage of migration, carriers must have confidence timing over packet (ToP) technologies can satisfy strict clock synchronization requirements of wireless standards.

Chronic lower back pain and numbness in legs
Patient : I am only 16 and I've played soccer all my life. I've had lower back pain for a few years now but for the last month it has flared up not only in my lower back but also between my shoulder blades and neck. It has gotten so bad that some days I can't even go to school, I just lay in bed on a heating pad. I've been to a sports medicine doctor who took an MRI and a CT scan but didn't find anything. He then gave me a quartazone shot which didn't help. I've been on anti- inflammatory's and every other type of medicine from antidepressants to pain killers to help me sleep but nothing works. I started noticing numbness and tingling down my legs to where some times I can't even feel them. I've been thinking it might be a herniated disc but that would've shown up on my scans. I've had to take a break from soccer because my back has gotten so bad and now my legs feel like they're not there. We're not sure if it's a sport injury or what because I stay active and I'm in good shape. What I'm trying to say is should we try to find a neurologist or should we give the sports medicine doctor a chance? What should we do next? We live near the Houston Medical Center so finding a doctor isn't really a problem.

Quincy Bioscience, the manufacturers of Prevagen® memory support supplement, are using animals in cruel and unnecessary experiments. Tell the company you will boycott their products until they adopt a full non-animal testing policy.
An investigation by CAARE has revealed that Prevagen®, the number one selling supplement to support memory, is being tested on animals. These tests are completely unjustified and need to stop.
Apoaequorin – the active ingredient in Prevagen® –is naturally found in jelly fish, but the company synthesizes apoaequorin and points out that jelly fish are unharmed in the making of Prevagen®.
We wish they could say the same for other animals. Quincy Bioscience uses rats in cruel experiments to study apoaequorin's effect on brain cells. One study infused apoaequorin directly into the brains of 142 rats, then killed them.
Quincy Bioscience also provided support for experiments on rats that put them in chambers where they received painful electric shocks to their feet. Then they were killed.
Quincy Bioscience has also conducted experiments on beagles to study supplements to support brain function in aging dogs. The product, Neutricks, which also contains apoaequorin, is manufactured by its affiliate company Quincy Animal Health.
Fortunately the dog studies were not invasive and none were killed. But the dogs were obtained through a contract lab and likely spent much of their lives in a lab setting. One study used 24 beagles, ages 9 through 17. How pitiful to think of these dogs living their lives in a contract lab instead of a loving home.
Please send your letter today asking Quincy Bioscience to end animal tests and let the company know you will boycott Prevagen® and Neutricks until they do.
For more information go to
I was very disturbed to learn that Quincy Bioscience is conducting invasive and lethal animal tests to study apoaequorin, the active ingredient in Prevagen®, and other aspects of brain function. Quincy Bioscience has supported studies in which rats had apoaequorin directly infused into the brain before being killed. Other studies supported by Quincy Bioscience involved inducing fear in rats by applying electric shocks to their feet, after which they were killed.
I was also disappointed to learn that Quincy Animal Health has conducted research on beagles for the product Neutricks. While these studies were non-invasive, I oppose animals being subjected to a life of laboratory housing in order to take part in experimental studies. All dogs deserve a loving home, not life in a lab.
Quincy Bioscience assures the public that Prevagen® is manufactured without harming jelly fish. Obviously you understand that harming animals is a matter of great concern to the public.
Please end all support for or participation in animal experiments and adopt a full and ethical non-animal testing policy. Until that happens, I will boycott Prevagen® and Neutricks, and tell my friends and family to do the same.
By signing, you accept Care2's terms of service.

New York Recruiting Report
Frankel key for Collegiate... B&G over St. Ray's... LuHi to final... Hackett leads Ludden... Manhertz commits... Gill on Ivy choice... CYP Day 1 recap
The drive for five: Frankel leads Collegiate back to 'B' Fed final- NYPost.com
Ray Voelkel had a feeling Ryan Frankel was going to be a thorn in his side for the years to come. In one game four years ago, Collegiate was beating Horace Mann handily, but this little freshman point guard kept scoring despite double and triple teams. Jump shots, drives, running one-handers – the Collegiate coach was powerless.
Boys & Girls take semis over St. Ray's- NYCHoops.net
Darnley hit his first three from the left corner to give Boys the lead at 39-38. Leroy Fludd followed that with an inside move to give the Kangaroos a 3 point lead. After senior forward Daniel Dingle (17 points and 12 boards) split a pair of free throws for St. Ray's and the Ravens traveled twice on different possessions, Solomon knocked down his second three of the game to make the score 44-39. That shot was just the shot in arm the Kangaroos needed to propel them the rest of the way.
Seniors carry defending 'A' champion LuHi back to final- NYPost.com
Brandon Alford, one of the team's few players to have a hand in last year's New York State Federation Class A title, scored 11 of his 13 points in a game-turning 22-1 run and Ryan Denicola was a monster inside as LuHi topped PSAL champion Brooklyn Collegiate, 66-56, in the 'A' semis Friday night at the Times Union Center in Albany.
Ludden dunks Nazareth in Fed- Syracuse.com
There's been a little competition going on between Ben Hackett and Daniel Kaigler this season.
Slam-dunk decision: Manhertz to play both football, basketball at AIC- NYPost.com
Omari Manhertz wears two hats. In the fall, he is the Mount St. Michael football team's fearsome linebacker/defensive end, a terror on quarterbacks. Over the winter, he is equally as scary for rims as one of New York City's top dunkers for the Mount boys basketball team.
While stock soars, Mount's Gill delighted with choice of Dartmouth- NYPost.com
When Tom Fraher got to his office at Mount St. Michael the morning after his team's big win against Christ the King, he had a ton of messages waiting for him. Many of them were college coaches inquiring about senior guard Malik Gill, who dropped 30 points on the two-time defending champion Royals in the CHSAA Class AA intersectional quarterfinals.

opinions on shinwanda one oil please? likes dislikes?
ok, but not NEARLY as good as echo. echo oil has a lot lower flash point than the shindaiwa, making the gas combust at a lower temperature, thus easier starts and cooler running. the echo oil is also syn. the the shindaiwa oil is petrolium based.
the reason i ask is i got a 6 pac for $2.00 retails for $8.00
in that case, I would use it. it is still good oil, just not as good as the echo.
Just use it..it's not like it'll hurt your equipment.

Gardens: Great for Eating and Educating
Phil Gurley
By Kimberly Griffin
Take a moment and think about what you are having for lunch today. Picture each ingredient. Now picture each of those ingredients in its rawest form. How many steps do you have to count backwards to turn today's lunch into a plant or animal? Into a seed?
Now think about what your kids are eating for lunch today. If your kids are eating a school-prepared lunch, let's follow that little meal back to its origins – from lunch tray to service line to kitchen. Stop. Look around the kitchen. Is it equipped for cooking and preparing raw foods? Or are the foods from this kitchen simply thawed-out and warmed-up? Do the mashed potatoes start their day in this kitchen as potatoes or as a box of powder? Is there any fruit or fresh veggies in the walk-in fridge?
Depending on where your child goes to school, this virtual tour varies, but many of today's school kitchens are ill-equipped for cooking. Budgets, time, skilled labor, and nutritional education have greatly influenced the landscape of school kitchens – not to mention tastes. Kids aren't necessarily getting whole (minimally processed) foods at home, either. So even if it were offered at school, they would likely turn up a nose at the unfamiliar sweet potato or bell pepper. The Farm to School initiative, through Vermont FEED (Food Education Every Day), along with a growing number of schools in the state, are working to change all of that; to develop food knowledge in the cafeteria, in the classroom, in the garden and at home.
In order for students to make informed decisions about what they eat, they need exposure. That means exposure to the heat and scent of decaying organic matter of compost; to the fields and barns filled with animals for meat and milk; to the warmth of greenhouses that protect over-wintered crops; to the rows upon rows of foods in their natural habitat – tomatoes on vines, beans in bushes, carrots hidden in the dirt like treasure. In order for our children to fully grasp what they are eating, they need to spend time on the farm, whether that farm requires a bus ride or a walk to the recess fields.
The Lothrop School in Pittsford is one school exposing students to food, both in and out of the cafeteria. Last year, with help from a grant from the Bowse Health Trust, educator Laura MacLachlan started a composting system to reduce the amount of food in the school's waste stream. Then, she started a small garden to put the compost to use and increase the amount of fresh food in the digestive stream. Now gearing up for a second season, we chatted about some of the great things happening at Lothrop around good food.
Laura is quick to point out that she has a lot of support, making integrating fresh food and gardening into education a little easier. The kitchen staff, managed by the Abby Group, is certainly into it. Lothrop's chefs offer up taste tests of different veggie-rich recipes, allow students to take over the kitchen when it's time to peel or chop or bake something from the garden, and are working to make meals guided by the New School Cuisine cookbook. And teachers are into it. When a bounty of sweet potatoes was harvested last fall, lessons were developed around it – including weighing, chopping, counting, graphing, and writing recipes. Even the physical education department is into it. There are talks of creating an 'edible track' on campus, allowing students to snack on berries, carrots, kale, and more, while walking along the track as a pre-class warm-up.
RAFFL is currently working with Lothrop and other schools to develop a model of small buying clubs wherein community members can purchase fresh and local produce right at schools. Last fall, Lothrop set up a "farm store" distribution center for a number of local farms. Produce was dropped off, then counted, sorted, weighed, and readied for pick-up by faculty and families.
Another off-campus asset for Laura is the Foxcroft Farm Harvest Program. Through different programs, students develop life skills while exploring a working farm. Younger students spend time learning on the farm through the "Growing to Know" project and older students find opportunities with the "Growing to Work" project. One such opportunity presented itself when Laura needed raised beds built at Lothrop. Some Growing to Work students built the beds, filled them with compost from the farm, and prepped them for planting. With these new beds, this year's sweet potato harvest could be even greater.
As the growing season approaches, there are a couple of Farm to School events that I encourage any farmers, gardeners, and eaters big and small to attend:
ACORN's fifth annual Stone Soup Summit at Middlebury College is Thursday, March 27. There will be TED-style talks, lots of interesting workshops, and a local food lunch. For more information, contact Lea Calderon-Guthe at firstname.lastname@example.com
Lothrop School is hosting a Honeybee High Tea, which is a farm and field day celebrating the little pollinators the students have been studying all year, May 30th. Any farmers or gardeners interested in sharing their skills, please contact Laura MacLachlan at firstname.lastname@example.com
Kimberly Griffin is currently working with the College of Saint Joseph to develop an on-campus farm for educational and edible use. She can be reached at email@example.com

Hi Fodors, please make suggestions for our plans:
-late 20's couple
enjoy: good authentic fresh food, beach, water (but not beach bums), lush greenery, hikes, outdoor exploring, we want to do less hopping around and more relaxing
enjoy less: museums, cities, touristy activities
This is very rough guide:
Day1: fly into Dubrokvnik
Day 2: explore Dubrovnik old town
Day 3: day trip to Lokrum
Day 4: kayak trip to Sipam island
day 5: relax on a beach? Banje beach?
Rest of trip before flying back: Should we go to Vis (or another island) for 2/3 nights? Should we see another region of Croatia?
Nothing is set in stone - so please make all suggestions you think of. Thank you!

Hi Fodors, please make suggestions for our plans:

Forgot to mention Plitvice Lakes.. how can I include that in my current itinerary? Or, should I base out of Split instead of Dubrovnik?
Report Abuse
How many total nights and and what dates (month) will you be there? This will affect suggestions for your vacation.How do you define touristy activities? Historical sights?
Dubrovnik is a very touristy destination.Your day trips will get you away from the daytime cruise ship crowds.Korcula or Mljet could be a "hop". Split is a large sea port city (number 2 city in Croatia)- to some not touristy enough.You would have to do more "hopping around" if you base in Split- Vis, Hvar,Brac,Krka National Park, etc.Some could be day trips.
I would include Plitvice if possible. You might fly into Zagreb, rent a car, drive to Plitvice for two nights. This would give you one full day for Plitvice. Then you could fly Zagreb to Dubrovnik to continue your vacation. If your flight to Dubrovnik is in the morning you could spend one night in Plitvice followed by one night in Zagreb.You will get better food in Zagreb than Plitvice.You could also drive to Dubrovnik. More later.
Report Abuse
How much time do you have really - more than five days when flying all the way from the US, right? You should understand that you can't always get easy flight connections into Croatia from the US. Sometimes staying over a night somewhere else in Europe will wind up saving you a lot of money, too. (Yesterday I flew home from Amsterdam; the day before I flew from Zagreb to Amsterdam after a few weeks driving around Croatia and Bosnia.) But I was able to get a free award ticket into Amsterdam and a cheap KLM flight into Venice/out of Zagreb. Your options will vary depending on where you are flying in from, what time of year, etc. easyJet for example operates seasonal flights between Croatia and other European cities FYI.
Yes, Plitvice is most easily reached via Zagreb, only about a two hour drive away. Flying into Zagreb, renting a car, driving to Plitvice and on to Dubrovnik and dropping the car there, then flying out of Dubrovnik...or doing in it the opposite order is the most practical.
There are lots of things you can see between Dubrovnik and Plitvice. Sometimes island hopping is easier without a car (use the bus or catamarans), if you want to do that - you could also pick up the car in say Split if you catamaran from Hvar. Again, I don't know how much time you really have.
Report Abuse
The driving time from Plitvice to Dubrovnik is about 5 hours.
The driving time from Plitvice to Split is about 3-1/4 hours.
Report Abuse
@ Andrew and @dugi_otok thank you for your responses.
1. I do not have flights booked yet, I want to draft an itinerary to see how many days and then book. But it will total around 8 days. Late June or early July.
Yes, Dubrovnik is touristy but I chose that as a base rather than Split because there is possibility to do more day trips from. I don't want to hop around. I'm not necessarily going to Dubrovnik to see the city, but rather to have access to Milet, Lokrum, etc.
I don't want really want to rent a car and drive and see things in between. We came from Italy where we drove around and switched hotels 3 times and were exhausted. I want to plan to stay in 2 bases maximum and relax.
So, what do you suggest? One base so that I can see islands, and then pick one island to stay a few nights? How would you change the plans?
Report Abuse
If you don't want to change hotels more than twice, then I guess I'd cross Plitvice Lakes off your list for this trip. Stick to Dubrovnik and the islands - you can easily fill eight days there. But do try to see Plitvice another time - it's an amazing park, perhaps even my favorite place in Croatia.
Dubrovnik is beautiful especially at night. The cruise ship tourists that mob the place seem to be gone by mid-afternoon.
Report Abuse
You could also take the ferry up to Korcula and stay there for a couple of nights, before heading back to Dubrovnik, or heading on to Split (before flying home from there). That doesn't seem like too much travel and shifting to me. (We just had a very low key trip, where we didn't want to shift every night or two.)
Report Abuse
With the additional info I would suggest something like the following:
Fly into Dubrovnik for 5 nights
Korcula or Hvar for 2 nights (via ferry)
Split for 1 night(via ferry)
Fly home from Split (More options than Dubrovnik)
Fly into Dubrovnik for 5 nights
Korcula for 1-2 nights (via ferry)
Hvar for 2-1 night (via ferry)
Early morning ferry Hvar to Split
Fly home from Split in the afternoon
Could return to Dubrovnik instead of going on to Split for the last night.
Can use Kapetan Luka Line Ferry (Catamaran Krilo Star) for Dubrovnik(16:30)-Korcula(18:20)-Hvar(19:35)-Split(20:45) and Hvar(8:55)-Korcula(!0:00)-Dubrovnik(12:00)
There are more options Hvar to Split and Korcula to Dubrovnik.
Ferry Schedules
Some info on Dubrovnik.
On my last trip we rented an apartment in Dubrovnik using this agency owned by a young American couple, Andrew & Michelle Kehoe, who live in Dubrovnik.
They are very helpful and very easy to deal with. There is good info on their website.

Thank you! Taking all your comments into consideration, I guess the next thing is to decide which island.
Hvar does not sound like my kind of place.. is Vis too difficult to get to from Dubrovnik? Any other suggestions for which islands might fit the things we like? (up above)
Report Abuse
Actually, maybe I shouldn't say that Hvar isn't my kind of place. The parties and the designers aren't. BUT maybe its possible to avoid that and stay on a different part of the island (especially given my itinerary and if its convenient from Dubrovnik).
What do you think?
Report Abuse
>>Hvar does not sound like my kind of place.maybe its possible to avoid that and stay on a different part of the island<<
There is Stari Grad, but I do not think that is your kind of place either. It is the main port for car ferries and ferries from Italy.It is more laid-back and family oriented, but getting more popular with the yachting fraternity and can be quite lively in the high season.. There are some package hotels and more home (Sobe) stays. About 20km from Hvar Town.
>> is Vis too difficult to get to from Dubrovnik? <<
Using the words of Senior Wences "Deefeecult For You-Easy for Me"
You need to take the bus from Dubrovnik to get to Split (4-1/2 hours) and then take the ferry Split to Vis (1hr 25 min). Ferry leaves Split at 1800(6PM)
For return Leave Vis 7:00, Arrive Split 8:25. Stay overnight in Split or catch your flight home same day.
Bus Dubrovnik to Split
Ferry Split to Vis
Kapetan Luka Ferries
Korcula may be a good solution.
Here is Kapetan Luka Ferries timetable for other islands
There are other ferry options.
Some videos
Korcula, Hvar, Split, Plitvice (1st 10 min)
Dubrovnik (1st 7 min)
Hope this helps

Some more ideas:
I think instead of staying in Dubrovnik we will stay in Cavtat. It is more what we are looking for in terms of relaxing environment. We will also be able to do our day trips from there (Miljet, Lokrum, etc)
The next question that remains is which island to go to after: I like the idea of Vis a lot, even though it would take us almost a full day to get there.
Do you think after being on Cavtat, Vis would be too similar? too much peace and quiet in one trip ?
Report Abuse
Narrowing down: Either Brac or Vis will be the second base.
Can you please suggest quieter areas on Brac, with nice beaches?
Report Abuse
>>Can you please suggest quieter areas on Brac, with nice beaches?<<
The spectacular beach (Zlatni rat) is in picturesque Bol.Bol is very crowded in Peak season.Smaller coastal settlements as Postira, Pucisca, Polvlja, and Milna are less visited, more relaxed, and ideal for a spot of Adriatic Island chilling. You would need a car if you chose to stay in one of them. You may not like the quality of the accommodations or the restaurants.
Report Abuse
>> Do you think after being on Cavtat, Vis would be too similar? too much peace and quiet in one trip ?<<
I do not think they are too similar at all. Cavtat is a well established mainland tourist destination. There is a combination of traditional stone architecture, lush subtropical vegetation, palm dotted seafront, but a rash of high-rise hotels.Cavtat is not undiscovered, quiet and laid back.Even though I doubt you will find any others from NYC who would fly 5000 miles to be there it does fit you.
Vis is a small island surrounded by the clear blue water, breathtaking bays, fantastic food and wine and two great looking traditional Dalmatian small towns.A lot of water sports are offered. Blue Cave, a famous natural wonder, can be visited from Vis.Again, perfect for you and all independent travelers. My godmother was from Vis. There are more people and their descendents, by a factor of 10,
here in southern California than there are in Vis.
I predict that in your stay in Cavtat you will not see the need or have the will to go on all those day trips that you are planning from Dubrovnik. Cavtat is 20 km south of Dubrovnik, and 3 km off the main coastal highway and 45 min by bus. Some day trips you will consider is a trip to Dubrovnik (a must),a Sunday trip to Cilipi for a roasted lamb feast and folk music show, and a trip across the border to Montenegro.
I had previously recommended taking a bus from Dubrovnik to Split and then a ferry to Vis the same day. There is an alternative. Take the afternoon ferry from Dubrovnik to Split. Make it part of your vacation. The scenery is fantastic with 10 min stops in Mljet, Korcula, Hvar, and Brac.You would stay one night in Split including a nice dinner at a good restaurant, see a bit of Split in the morning and then to Vis.Just a thought. Treat the ferry trip as a cruise. The approach to each island from the sea is fantastic.

Rent a car from Dubrovnik and visit Kotor, Montenegro for at least a day/night. It's beautiful!

Hi ebuni,
I'm heading to Croatia in August, wondering if you have been on your trip yet and if so any recommendations? We are thinking Dubrovnik-korcula-hvar/vis- split 2 nights each? Your thoughts if you don't mind?

Days away from high school graduation, with hardly a penny to his name, Evan Lowry needs to earn money for college. When he comes across an ad for modeling, he thinks his luck has changed - until he learns he's interviewing for an adult film and will be expected to have sex. On camera. With other men.
For gay porn star Brandon Court, the shine has worn off of regular shoots. He and his producer Les decide to try something new: a reality-show porno set at a beach house. When he meets wide-eyed and naïve Evan for the first time, Brandon isn't sure if he wants the kid to get lost or get naked. Naked wins.
On set, Brandon takes Evan under his wing, and over the next month, they are thrown together in every intimate way conceivable - except emotionally. Both Brandon and Evan are terrified of trying for anything deeper, and insecurities and doubts wear on their hopes, but the chemistry between them won't let them slow things down.

Sweet "porn star" story, nicely narrated
This is a lovely story about a jaded porn star who falls in love with a newbie/virgin. There was a lot of great sex and some pretty nice "feels" in this story. Brandon and Evan fall for one another pretty much right away and the only "hurdle" happens near the end when Brandon abandons Evan after the shoot – causing Evan to despair.
However – Brandon realizes his mistake and we get a solid HEA after all.
You definitely have to suspend your disbelief – this is not porn like anything I'd have seen or expected – definitely a rosy vision of the industry. But… it's nice and the love story is very sweet.
Jeff Gelder does a nice job with this. He's not my favorite narrator and he doesn' "move me" like some narrators do, but he tells the story in such a way that the story takes center stage, not the narrator.
Overall 4 of 5 hearts
- Morgan A Skye
An incredible love story
- Gary J Althaus

Strength of Schedule Watch, Week 5
Game of the Week:
Air Force (3-1) vs. Navy (2-1)...2:30pm Saturday on Versus
-The Falcons, still a few weeks away from their trip to Fort Worth, are right on the verge of breaking into the Top 25. Every year, their biggest non-conference games are their battles against the other service academies as they compete for the Commander in Chief's Trophy. They've lost seven straight to the Midshipmen, so this one would be a huge confidence boost if they can win it.
Baylor (3-1) vs. Kansas (2-2)...11:00am Saturday on FSN
-As fun as it was to see the Frogs thrash Baylor and talk trash about how pitiful their program is, it'd be even sweeter to see the team that TCU destroyed go on to be a formidable piece of the Big 12 race. Griffin & company bounced back nicely against Rice last week (they beat them by the same 17-point margin that UT did), and will look to gain some more momentum in this very winnable conference opener.
Oregon State (1-2) vs. Arizona State (2-2)...5:30pm Saturday on FSN-Northwest
-The Beavers start their Pac 10 schedule this weekend, and they'll be looking to get back on track after having lost to both the Frogs as well as at Boise last week. They'll get an ASU team that probably should've taken down Oregon last week, if it weren't for an agonizing SEVEN turnovers.
UNLV (1-3) vs. Nevada (4-0)...9:00pm Saturday on The Mtn
-The Rebels have been a huge let-down so far this year, and are among the teams really dragging down the bottom of the Mountain West. They've got a major chance to redeem themselves this weekend, though, by taking down their in-state rival who also happens to be one of the teams that is looking like they'll give Boise a boost to their own SOS.
BYU (1-3) at Utah State (1-2)...7:00pm Friday on ESPN
-Yet another MWC vs. WAC matchup here. The Cougars' D has been absolutely unable to stop the run so far this year, and this is a test to see just how bad BYU's slide can get. I'll probably spend the rest of my life cheering against them, but I'm not sure I wish losing to Utah State on them.
SMU (2-2) vs. Rice (1-3)...6:00pm Saturday
-As nauseating an idea as rooting for the Mustangs might be, any time you let a team hang around with you well into the second half, you probably need them to come out and make a statement the rest of the season and especially in their next game...and especially when they have a chance to be compare to two Big 12 teams that have also played that same opponent. Some motivation for SMU? They haven't beaten Rice in Houston since 1986.
New Mexico (0-4) vs. UTEP (3-1)...5:00pm Saturday on The Mtn
-Everything I said about UNLV, you could say about New Mexico...except their opponent is not a Boise opponent. Still, though- the MWC/CUSA comparisons are always there, so a win by the MWC trainwreck against the CUSA contender would look pretty nice for the league. I'm not holding my breath, though.
Wyoming (1-3) at Toledo (3-1)...6:00pm Saturday
-The Cowboys have played one of the toughest schedules in the country so far, with their three losses coming at the hands of Texas, Boise State and Air Force. They were competitive against the Falcons last week, though, giving you some hope of them taking down the Rockets on the road. They really, really need this one if they want to come back to make a bowl this year.
Tennessee Tech (1-3) vs. Tennessee-Martin (1-3)...
-This game is actually taking place as I'm typing this post. Had I known they were playing Thursday night, I probably would've gotten this knocked out earlier in the week. But it's been a complete ass-whip of a week at work and how much do you really care about Tennessee Tech? Alright, so then give me a freaking break. They're winning, 10-6, right before the half. I'll be away from a computer pretty much all of Friday, so maybe someone can take it upon themselves to look up the score on ESPN.com tomorrow and let you all know if they won or not.
Utah (4-0) and San Diego State (3-1) are off this weekend.
