NFL News: Player News and Updates for 2/26/15
NFL Updates: News From Around the League, Off-Season Schedule and More
February 26, 2015
See the Latest Odds
We're creeping toward another off-season weekend in the NFL, and in a couple of weeks we'll be officially upon a new league year. In the meantime, there's plenty to talk about so let's check out our daily headlines and see who's in the news.
In a somewhat surprising move yesterday, the Packers cut veteran LB A.J. Hawk. He had been with the team since 2006.
Hawk totaled 923 tackles, nine picks and three forced fumbles during his time in Green Bay. Cutting him saves the team $3.5 million against the cap this year.
USA TODAY Sports
It hasn't taken long to find suitors for the Ravens' Pernell McPhee. He's set to be hitting the free agent market next month, and the Colts are one team that's very interested in his services.
McPhee is looking for a contract that's too rich for the Ravens' blood. He'll be trying to get somewhere in the neighborhood of $8-10 million on his next deal.
Good news for Texans OT David Quessenberry, who was diagnosed with lymphoma last year. He's now officially in remission.
No word yet as to when Quessenberry will be able to get back to the football field, but it's definitely good to see him doing well.
Speaking of the Texans, let's check in on QB Ryan Mallett. He's still in the recovery phases from his torn pectoral muscle and isn't back to 100 percent just yet.
Mallett says he's "getting close" to being back to his old self, but we'll see how it goes. In the meantime, the Texans will likely be trying to upgrade at the quarterback position.
Speaking of teams looking to upgrade certain positions, the Browns are doing that at wide receiver. Word is that the team has some interest in former Cardinal Tedd Ginn, but we won't know for sure how intent they are on signing him for a little while yet.
Off-Season Key Dates: Now let's check out a few of the notable dates on the NFL's off-season calendar. Here's a quick overview.
February 16: Teams can designate franchise players
Feb 17-23: NFL Scouting Combine (Indianapolis)
March 10: 2015 league year begins; free agency begins at 4 PM ET and all teams must be under salary cap
March 22-25: Annual meeting

Pac 12 commish: NCAA changes can come without confrontation
By RALPH D. RUSSO
Associated Press
HARTFORD, Conn. — Larry Scott of the Pac-12 joined the chorus of commissioners calling for sweeping change in the NCAA, and said it can happen without confrontation and with the five most powerful football conferences still competing on the field with the other five.
Scott was the last of the leaders of the big five conferences to make a public push for NCAA reforms that will allow the schools with the most resources to have more freedom to determine how they use them.
"I don't think of it as much of an us vs. them situation as maybe is the impression out there," Scott said Thursday as the Pac-12 wrapped up a mini-media days on the East Coast that included their football coaches appearing on ESPN. "I'm certainly aligned with what you heard from my colleagues this week in terms of the need for transformative change, but I think it can be evolutionary and not revolutionary.
"I don't think it will be as confrontational and controversial a process as some of the reports I have heard this week."
NCAA President Mark Emmert told The Indianapolis Star on Thursday that he agrees with Scott and his fellow commissioners, and vowed significant changes to the way rules and policies are made.
"There's one thing that virtually everybody in Division I has in common right now, and that is they don't like the governance model," Emmert told the Star. "Now, there's not agreement on what the new model should be. But there's very little support for continuing things in the governing process the way they are today."
Emmert told the Star he will call for a Division I summit in January to discuss revamping how Division I is run.
Scott, Mike Slive of the Southeastern Conference, John Swofford of the Atlantic Coast Conference, Bob Bowlsby of the Big 12 and Jim Delany of the Big Ten have taken turns at football media days around the country over the past week calling for changes to the way the NCAA passes legislation since .
The most notable issue has been a $2,000 stipend that would be added to the athletic scholarship to cover the full-cost of college attendance. The big five conferences want to be able to give the stipend to all scholarship athletes.
"Schools that have resources and want to be able to do more for student-athletes are frustrated, concerned that we're being held back from doing more for the student-athletes in terms of the stipend," Scott said.
The stipend was shot down by some of the less wealthy NCAA Division I schools that might not be able to afford it. There are 349 schools in Division I, 125 at the highest level of college football called FBS.
"The idea that there is an even playing field in terms for resources is a fanciful and quaint notion," Scott said.
Scott compared the stipend being stymied to the delays in bringing instant replay to college football in 2000s.
"Instant replay took longer than it needed to get into college football because not everyone could do it," he said. "There are still some schools out there whose conferences can't afford instant replay. It doesn't strike me that the world's fallen in or that it's created some crisis just because everyone can't have instant replay."
Scott said university presidents that make up the NCAA board of directors will talk about reform when they meet next month. Proposals could come later this year.
Scott said he still wants FBS to have a "so-called big tent," with more than just the top five conferences being included.
"That's why the reports of a possible breakaway and things like that are overcooked," he said. "That's not anyone's agenda."
He said the move toward more nine-game conference schedules and an emphasis on strength of schedule in the upcoming College Football Playoff will naturally lead to fewer games between the big five conferences and the other five FBS leagues (Mountain West Conference, American Athletic Conference, Sun Belt, Mid-American Conference and Conference USA). But there will still be competition between the two groups.
What is likely to decrease are games between FBS and FCS teams and so-called guarantee games, when a school from a power conference pays hundreds of thousands of dollars to a school from a lesser conference to play a road game.
Some FCS and lower-level FBS programs, especially those in the Sun Belt and MAC, rely on those guarantee game payouts to fund their athletic programs and losing them could be a problem.
"I'm not very sympathetic. I just don't think the concept of buy games is a healthy thing for college football or for fans," Scott said. "It's been a quirk in the system that they've benefited from and good for them. I certainly don't feel like it's an entitlement or right they have. To me that's not a higher priority than creating higher quality college football matchups.
"There is plenty of socialized revenue distribution through the NCAA."

General Mills Recall Products That Contain Pecan Cereal giant, General Mills, just announced a recall of some of its "Nut Lovers" Nature Valley Granola Nut Clusters product that contain pecans.
General Mills took the action as a precaution because, it said, pecans received from a supplier and used in "Nut Lovers" Nature Valley Granola Nut Clusters may be tainted with Salmonella.

The recalled "Nut Lovers" Nature Valley Granola Nut Clusters product is a new bite-size cluster sold in a stand-up bag in grocery stores, convenience stores, and vending outlets nationally.

Salmonella is an organism that can cause serious, sometimes fatal, infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Healthy persons infected with Salmonella often experience fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Rarely, infection with Salmonella can result in the organism entering the bloodstream and producing more severe illnesses such as arterial infections (i.e., infected aneurysms), endocarditis, and arthritis.
Some Salmonella bacteria are resistant to antibiotics, largely due to the use of antibiotics to promote the growth of feed animals. Salmonella is usually found in food contaminated with animal feces and is a group of bacteria that passes from the feces of people or animals to other people or animals, causing contamination when food is improperly stored or handled and when preparers do not wash their hands or sanitize implements involved in food storage.
Salmonella is the most frequently reported cause of food-related outbreaks of stomach illness worldwide and Salmonella poisoning can lead to Reiter's Syndrome, a difficult-to-treat reactive arthritis characterized by severe joint pain, irritation of the eyes, and painful urination.

Are the five states around the Caspian Sea finally going to resolve their dispute about how to divide the body of water between themselves?
A number of unusually positive statements from diplomats from the littoral states have suggested that the seemingly intractible dispute is on the verge of being resolved. But if any of the Caspian countries have softened their negotiating positions -- the intransigence of which has resulted in this long dispute -- they aren't telling.
The foreign ministers of the five states -- Azerbaijan, Iran, Kazakhstan, Russia, and Turkmenistan -- met last week in Astana, and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said the sides could reach an agreement in a year.
"I believe it is absolutely realistic to aim for signing the Convention on the Legal Status of the Caspian Sea in 2017. I think this can be done even in the first half of the year," he said. That enthusiasm was shared by Kazakhstan, whose prime minister, Karim Massimov, tweeted: "Met with foreign ministers of Caspian littoral states. There's hope for prompt completion of talks over Caspian Sea Legal Status Convention."
Russian politicians and state media sounded sharp alarm about the July 15 military-coup attempt in Turkey, Moscow's traditional regional rival, with some calling for "responsible organs" to come to the rescue of Russian citizens in Turkey. By contrast, officials in the South Caucasus, which borders directly on Turkey, expressed much greater caution .
The failed coup attempt led to the deaths of 1,661 people, and the injury of 1,440, Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim announced at an afternoon briefing on July 16 in the Turkish capital, Ankara. Some 2,839 armed-forces personnel allegedly involved in the coup-plot have now been arrested, he said, according to Turkey's official Anadolu Agency.
Yet even as Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan announced that the coup had been put down, Russia's state-run TASS news agency led with a statement from Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev that "we should undertake all measures for the defense of the interests of our citizens, and also our companies, our entities . . . " in Turkey.
What measures, if any, were under consideration is not clear, but Deputy Parliamentary Speaker Alexander Romanovich, citing alleged bombing by Turkish military planes, earlier in the morning of July 16 called for "our responsible organs" to organize the immediate evacuation of all Russian citizens from Turkey.
Azerbaijan claims to be close to fielding a domestically produced armed drone, another escalation in its race to arm to take back the territory it lost to Armenian forces.
Azerbaijan's domestic arms industry will be able to supply the drones to its armed forces "in the near future," said Yaver Jamalov, the country's Minister of Defense Industry, at a cabinet meeting Sunday.
"Testing of the unmanned aerial vehicle 'Zarba,' created by your [President Ilham Aliev] on short notice, has been successful, and in the near future the device will be handed over to the armed forces," Jamalov said.
This would seem to be Azerbaijan's first armed drone. It has used surveillance drones, mostly purchased from Israel, for several years and in April's heavy fighting with Armenia it emerged that Azerbaijan also had Israeli Harop "kamizake drones," which are themselves the bomb. Armenia also operates small, domestically produced surveillance UAVs.
This announcement comes amid an unprecedented diplomatic push to try to resolve the conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia over the territory of Nagorno Karabakh, which Armenia won from Azerbaijan in a war as the Soviet Union collapsed.
The June 28 terrorist attack on Istanbul's Atatürk International Airport meant an attack on a gateway to the outside world for Turkey's entire neighborhood.
Shortly after the explosions, hundreds of travelers from nearby countries checked in as safe on Facebook, underscoring the facility's role as the region's ultimate layover point. A place where rabbis and mullahs hang out in one lounge, Slavs snap up perfumes and purses at duty-free stores, and Georgians seem to permanently hold court in Starbucks, IST is the world's third busiest airport and a veritable melting pot.
For many, it is much more than that.
"I spent endless hours there, watching people and munching on that free rahat lokum [Turkish delight]," one Azerbaijani businesswoman, Aygul, who passed through Istanbul two days before the attack, said via Facebook Messenger. "You sit there, look at all these people from everywhere and all the world's differences seem so small and unimportant."
Canadian artist Melanie Mehrer wrote Tamada Tales that, on the night of the attack, she had been drawing at an airport Starbucks when two Pakistani men, artists en route to an exhibit in Moscow, noticed her work and struck up a conversation. "We spent a good hour gabbing about art, Islam, Islamic Art, politics, weird stories in our countries' news, what it feels like to feel connected and rooted in your own culture . . .or not. "
For Georgians like Zurab Tatanashvili, an assistant professor of social work at Tbilisi State University, Istanbul airport became synonymous with a door to the West after the Soviet Union imploded in 1991. "Many other Georgians and I first went to the West through that airport and the West came here through it as well," he commented by phone.
Last month, Azerbaijan appeared to have made a significant concession in its struggle to regain its lost territory of Nagorno Karabakh: it agreed to expand the international mission monitoring the conflict. But Azerbaijan President Ilham Aliyev, newly returned from Moscow where he discussed the plan with his Armenian counterpart Serzh Sargsyan and Russian President Vladimir Putin, is now walking back that promise.
Armenia, as well as the United States, had long pushed for strengthening the monitoring mission, run by the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, because the understaffed, underresourced mission is unable to determine who is to blame for the increasingly common ceasefire violations. Azerbaijan, however, had previously argued that increasing monitoring would only serve to solidify a status quo it saw as illegitimate: an Armenian occupation of its land.
It wasn't clear why Azerbaijan had agreed to the concession, but an OSCE statement after last month's meeting in Vienna said the two sides agreed to implement an "investigative mechanism." It wasn't specified what that mechanism would be, but Armenians and other have pushed for devices that could record the origin of gunshots.
Russia on June 20 cemented its role as the MC-enforcer of the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict talks by hosting Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev for the duo's second meeting after their Four-Day War this April.
In St. Petersburg, Sargsyan and Aliyev conspicuously refused to shake hands before retreating to a closed-door meeting with their host, Russian President Vladimir Putin. The Kremlin later claimed that the two did shake on several issues, such as their stated commitment to maintaining and monitoring the ceasefire in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, the biggest potential time-bomb in the conflict-torn South Caucasus.
"We have planned out concrete steps to boost the process of negotiations, and the presidents agreed on a trilateral statement, which reaffirms their commitment to normalization of the situation on the line of contact and also includes their consent to increasing the number of the OSCE monitors," Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said.
The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) has a small ceasefire monitoring mission in Karabakh. For years, the OSCE has arranged peace talks on Karabakh through its Minsk Group, a mediation mechanism led by Russia, the US and France.
Repercussions from the "four-day war" with Azerbaijan in April continue to resonate in Armenia, with several senior officials arrested on corruption charges and one prominent political figure accusing the government of "deceiving" Armenians about their military capabilities.
Three security officials were arrested on Monday. "They were arrested for different criminal charges. They are suspected of various wrongdoings. In one case accepting poor quality supplied goods, in another case, according to preliminary data, procurements with exaggerated expenses," said Sona Truzyan, a government spokesman, as reported by commonspace.eu.
This follows the firing of three other senior Ministry of Defense and armed forces officials at the end of April, also amid various corruption-related investigations. All this is in reaction to the results of fighting in early April in the disputed territory of Nagorno Karabakh, which resulted in the greatest number of casualties since a ceasefire between the two sides was signed in 1994, and during which Azerbaijan for the first time since then captured some new territory.
Further underscoring Yerevan's desire to shake things up, President Serzh Sargsyan replaced one of the fired MoD officials with a relative outsider, David Pakhchanian, as Deputy Defense Minister Chairman of the State Military Industrial Committee.
Azerbaijan has gotten $20 million in military aid from the U.S. Department of Defense over the last ten years, while Armenia has gotten nearly nothing, a review of U.S. government documents shows.
While the U.S. State Department has traditionally administered most foreign military aid, since the onset of the "War on Terror" the Defense Department has taken on increasing responsibility for military aid. And although the U.S. State Department for the most part observes a policy of "parity" in aid to the two countries, the Department of Defense has been less cautious in maintaining a balance. Baku has benefited in particular from two Pentagon aid programs, known as Section 1004 and Section 1206, which are subject to less Congressional oversight and less stringent public reporting requirements.
Azerbaijan has gotten $8.5 million since 2005 in funding from Section 1004, which provides counternarcotics assistance, and $11.5 million from Section 1206, which provides counterterrorism aid. Armenia, by contrast, has gotten just $41,000 in Section 1004 funding and no Section 1206 money, according to data collected by the Washington advocacy group Security Assistance Monitor, which maintains a database of the various U.S. military assistance programs.
Armenia and Azerbaijan agreed to strengthen the international monitoring of the front lines between their armed forces, a potentially significant step that could make it possible to identify the causes of the increasingly frequent flareups in violence between the two sides.
The agreement emerged from a meeting between the presidents of the two countries in Vienna on Monday night brokered by the Organization of Security and Cooperation in Europe and the United States, Russia, and France. The high-level involvement in the conflict follows what has come to be known as the "four-day war" in early April, the worst violence since the two sides signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994.
An OSCE statement after the meeting between Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan and his Azerbaijani counterpart Ilham Aliyev reported that the two sides "agreed to finalize in the shortest possible time an OSCE investigative mechanism. The Presidents also agreed to the expansion of the existing Office of the Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairperson in Office."
The paucity of resources of the current monitoring regime, with only six monitors covering a long, remote, line of contact, has made it nearly impossible to determine what is behind a ceasefire violation. And while the OSCE statement is vague, expanding the OSCE monitoring office and creating an "investigative mechanism" could ameliorate some of those problems.
A senior U.S. State Department official, speaking before the meeting, highlighted the importance of improving the monitoring regime:
Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Turkey have reiterated their intention to expand military cooperation, including holding joint military exercises aimed at protecting oil and gas pipelines. But the promises of further cooperation belie the stalled development of this would-be military bloc on Russia's southern flank.
The defense ministers of the three countries met Sunday in Gabala, Azerbaijan, and afterwards they announced a variety of cooperation measures including joint military exercises, cooperation on cyber security, and "further improvement of trilateral exercises on the protection of oil and gas pipelines," in the words of Azerbaijan Defense Minister Zakir Hasanov. While some of this already has been going on, Hasanov added that the three sides are preparing a memorandum to "to enter a new stage" of the cooperation. Hasanov's Georgian counterpart, Tinatin Khidasheli, said Georgia would host the new joint exercises next year.
This nascent alliance was formalized in 2012, but of course much has changed in the region since then, like Russia's growing assertiveness and the collapse of Russia-Turkey relations. So it now includes one country that is a longtime Russian enemy (Georgia), another new but fervent enemy (Turkey) and one country strenuously keeping its options open (Azerbaijan).

John Terry's father 'headbutted and racially abused man in row over cigarette'
The father of Chelsea captain John Terry headbutted and racially abused an Asian man in a drunken row over a cigarette, a court heard today.
Ted Terry, 59, was wearing a jacket bearing the insignia of West Ham FC when he attacked Amarjit Talafair and called him a "f***ing P**i", jurors at the Old Bailey were told.
He then allegedly confronted a black train station cleaner and threatened him with a bottle while shouting: "I will smash it over your head you black c**t."
Terry and his friends Tudor Musteata, a 47-year-old Russian, and Stephen Niland, 36, had been drinking for several hours before the confrontation, the court heard.
The jury was told that at around 8pm on 22 March 2013 they approached Mr Talafair as he smoked a cigarette outside the Windsor Pub near Fenchurch Station in central London.
This case is about racist threats, racist abuse and ultimately racist violence directed towards a member of the public who happened to be Asian
Prosecutor Alexander Chalk said: "This case is about racist threats, racist abuse and ultimately racist violence directed towards a member of the public who happened to be Asian."
He continued: "Edward Terry was wearing a dark blue jacket with the insignia of West Ham Football Club. One of them approached and asked for a cigarette.
"Mr Talafair said he didn't have any cigarettes."
When Mr Talafair walked away, Terry's group started shouting: "F***ing P**i, f***ing P**i, come here", before Terry then approached Mr Talafair and said: "You f***ing P**i, let's have it right here and now", it was alleged.
Mr Chalk said: "The confrontation culminated in Edward Terry approaching Mr Talafair and headbutting him, striking him above the nose.
"It is alleged the group were hostile, aggressive and abusive."
Mr Talafair went back to his friends in the pub and Terry's group walked off towards Fenchurch Street Station.
At the station the group threatened a black cleaner, a train dispatcher and several other witnesses, it is claimed.
Terry allegedly threatened to break a bottle over the head of the cleaner, saying "I will smash it over your head you black c**t."'
He also threatened to headbutt a train dispatcher, the court heard.
Musteata then approached one of Mr Talafair's friends and pushed away a witness who tried to get in between them, the court heard.
"It seemed like he and the other males wanted to fight," said Mr Chalk.
Following his arrest on 28 March, Terry admitted having a confrontation with someone he referred to as 'half caste', the court heard.
Mr Chalk said: "He thought he had initiated the confrontation by doing something stupid, or as he put it, acting the goat, but couldn't recall the details."
Terry claimed he saw the alleged victim approaching with a bottle and believed he was under threat, the court heard.
Mr Chalk added: "He denied using racist language. He said he did hear racist remarks but declined to say who had uttered them."
Terry , of Essex, denies racially aggravated common assault and racially aggravated fear or provocation of violence.
Niland, also of Essex, and Musteata, of Greenwich, deny racially aggravated fear or provocation of violence.
The trial continues.

1 . Creepy….
"Was talking to a girl on the phone who at the time was fucked up on painkillers and started relating to me a story about how when she was 7 she pushed a girl into a pool and watched her drown. Her grandma came home, found out about it, and told her to tell the police it was an accident."
2. Another reason to hate reunions..
"'I kept some of your hair.' At 20 year high school reunion."
3. What the FUCK!
This happened seven years ago while I was going through my email: "When you and her have your baby, rest assured, I'll be the one that raises it.".
"When I was about 17-years-old, I worked at a cafeteria and some girls (11 and 13) where chasing me for weeks. They even waited in front of my door when I had to go to work to chase me all the way up there.
One day I was working and the cafeteria was full with people when the 11-year-old girl asked, "When can I give you a blowjob?" Everyone instantly looked at me."
Pretty sure they girls were asked to play a prank on the poor guy!"
[sc name="Ad 300x 250 "]
5. Not cool bro.
"Making out with a girl I was seeing, lightly slide my hand up her chest, and as my hand is going to caress her cheek, she grabs it around her neck and forces me to choke her which is fine… she then proceeded to call out her brother's name…"
6. Has to be a stupid, stupid dare!
"This happened to a friend of mine I was living with. I won't go into it, but the situation we were in demanded we shared a bunk bed. We had a rule that we could bring girls home so long as we kept the noise down. One night, whilst sleeping, my friend brings this girl home with him. I woke up to them coming in as they went up to his bunk to start messing around
I hear the typical stuff at first. Lip smacks, heavy breathing, some moaning. Then it happened. I hear the girl whisper to my friend the words "are you down with the funk?"
In retrospect, my friend says he said yes because the chick was hot and he didn't want to ruin the night. So he says "yeah baby, I'm down with the funk for sure." Almost immediately the girl takes off her panties, stands up on the bunk, turns around, squats and shits."
Right on his chest.
7. It's always hot with the crazy ones! 😉
"You don't have to wear a condom, I'll just miscarry."
I wore a condom.
8. Thanks, but no thanks..
"You have no right to your own life and if you try to leave me I'll kill you so nobody else can have you."
Good times!

On 30 November 2015, the Central Bank of Ireland issued a consultation paper setting out details of proposed policy amendments and technical changes to its AIF Rulebook. The consultation is open until 24 February 2016.
Proposed policy amendments include:
- Extending the category of investors who are provided with an exemption from the eligibility criteria and minimum subscription requirement to invest in a qualifying investor AIF, to include the AIFM or an entity in the AIFM's group
- Requiring AIF depositaries which provide services to non-Irish AIFs to provide a quarterly return to the Central Bank even if similar information is provided by other entities, e.g. an administrator
- Aligning the rules which apply to collateral received by retail investor AIFs under an OTC derivative or a repo/securities lending contract and the rules which reference external credit ratings with the rules recently introduced for UCITS funds
- The introduction of a requirement for AIFMs and AIF management companies to produce two sets of half yearly financial accounts covering the first and second six months respectively of the financial year (in addition to the annual audited accounts). This brings AIFMs and AIF management companies in line with a similar requirement recently introduced for UCITS management companies.

Research interests
I aim to support decision-making to improve population health and reduce inequalities. To do so, I focus on a mix of pure and applied research questions:
I'm interested in how population change results from changes in individuals' lives, and how inequalities in health and socio-economic situation are maintained during the process of population change. The fascinating part of this research is that it requires the combination of sociological theory, qualitative, epidemiological and demographic data, and new mathematical work to understand what mediates the link between individual and population change.
My applied research interests centre around how to enable policymakers to implement more effective and equitable policy. This requires predicting the likely fiscal and wider societal effects of policy, and thinking of new ways to present the outputs in terms of uncertainty-laden choices.
In my current work with the UK Centre for Tobacco & Alcohol Studies, I am asking how to coordinate actions to reduce the harm from tobacco and alcohol use in the UK, where patterns of use are changing rapidly.
In the long run, I'm interested in developing this research in a global health context.

That's a good start, but why stop there?
Raising teamwork to the next level doesn't mean you must hire team-building consultants and send employees on Outward Bound.
Use Teamwork at Its Best to hone your decision-making skills and create successful teams.1. Campaign against an enemy. People will band together if they see themselves as fighting a formidable adversary, especially if they view themselves as the underdog. Focus a group's attention on a fierce rival. If you run a small retail chain, build team spirit by calling for your troops to trounce the big national department stores.
2. Publish a "team book." Ask every employee to prepare a one-page biography. It can include a photo, a list of hobbies, personal interests and family information. Collect their responses and assemble them in a bound volume that you distribute to everyone.
As employees flip through the book, they'll become better acquainted with their co-workers. They'll also bond more readily when they learn what they have in common.
A manager oversees people, but a leader molds them into winning teams. Teamwork at Its Best, an exclusive web report from Business Management Daily, gives you the techniques and strategies experts use to motivate teams to succeed. And this success will reflect not just on your team, but on YOU. Get it here...3. Exchange praise. Play the "anonymous praise" game in which everyone lists what he admires about a specific co-worker. Collect the responses and summarize the highlights in a memo to each team member.
This way, employees see a compilation of praise based on what their peers think of them. By keeping it anonymous, the compliments count even more because the messages—not the messengers—stand out.
4. Unclog team communication channels. You want teammates to share ideas, but if they're scattered in field offices or different floors, they may lack "face time" to update each other. Solution: Use your company's networking capabilities so that employees can inform each other of new developments. For a low-tech option, designate a centrally located bulletin board as the place for team members to post notices, give progress reports and pose questions.
The strategic blending of common-sense tips and insightful exercises you'll find in Teamwork at Its Best shows you how to create a teamwork battle plan. This unique resource details the team-building challenges you face every day, and provides specific leadership solutions.
We'll tackle subjects like:
- Picking the right team members when it's your choice (and maybe even your neck!). Take our quick 5-question test before you choose – and sidestep a potentially fatal error.
- Taking your team to the next level. We'll help you unlock the secrets of motivation and arm you with 3 steps to take your team to greater glory. Plus, we provide a bonus tip to use at team meetings.
- Making group decisions quickly. Follow 4 steps to brilliant decision-making … and learn the single best way to reach consensus.

After global warming the disaster film ("The Day After Tomorrow") and global warming the comedy special ("Earth to America"), the next step was probably inevitable: global warming the coffee mug.
The mug is decorated with, naturally, a heat-sensitive world map. When it's filled with a steaming beverage, the shorelines retreat, reflecting an extreme version of what scientists say will happen as melting ice and warming water raise sea levels.
Groups with different views on warming have come up with similarly quirky tools to spread their views. In December, the National Center for Public Policy Research distributed rolls of toilet paper at climate-treaty talks in Montreal printed with the phrase "emissions credit" in five languages -- reflecting what it claimed is the value of such credits, which are earned by cutting greenhouse gases linked to warming.
The online pitch by the mug's purveyor, a Brooklyn-based novelty company called the Unemployed Philosophers Guild, is a bit bleak: "Have you wondered what the world would look like after the polar ice caps melt? Now see it over a cup of coffee."
Nonetheless, it's been selling briskly, with about 25,000 bought last year, said David Shaw, who designed the mug and runs the company with his brother, Stephan, the unemployed philosopher who started the business in the early 1990's.
They've received a few requests for corrections, like an e-mail message that came in last Thursday noting that the Aral Sea would never fill up because its elevation is far too high.Continue reading the main story
"We said we'll try to adjust it in a few places," Mr. Shaw said. ANDREW C. REVKINContinue reading the main story

About Instant Pot Cookout: 25 Recipes For Delicious Healthy Food, Recipes Cookbook For Cooking On Electric Instantaneous Pressure Cooker Pot (Electric Pressure Cooker Cookbook Book 1):
The Instant Pot is one of the greatest culinary inventions of the twenty-first century. It combines an electric pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker and yogurt maker in one handy dandy device. Created in 2010, the Instant Pot's success has continued to grow past its seven-year inception – well its current inception.
The Pressure cooker was invented in 1679 by a French physician who created an airtight steamer. They become popular in the 1950s and 60s, and the women put up with the loud hiss of the vents and when the pots exploded, and pea soup flew everywhere. They were put in the microwave in the 1970s because they cooked and warmed up food faster than any other kitchen device. Now, the pressure cooker has come back and better than ever.
The Instant Pot has pre-programmed buttons for making soups, meats, beans, poultry, rice, grains, porridge, and yogurt.
It is great that these devices can be used for more than pressure cooking, but do you know what a pressure cooker is? Pressure cooking prepares food in a sealed container using liquid. A pressure cooker is a pot that contains a seal and a lockable lid. The pot contains a valve that traps and releases steam to control the inner pressure. When the pressure inside the cooker is raised the water is increased past its boiling point. Food can cook faster at this high temperature and energy is saved when the food is cooked more quickly. The best thing about pressure cooking is not only the fact that it saves time and is energy efficient, but that it seals in flavors and nutrients.

About ZR Genomic DNA™ -Tissue MicroPrep
Note: Catalog numbers D3040 and D3041 will be discontinued within the next 3 months (March 31st, 2017) or while supplies last. Please refer to D4074 for the replacement product.
The ZR Genomic DNA™-Tissue MicroPrep is a simple procedure for the rapid isolation of total DNA (e.g., genomic, mitochondrial, parasitic, microbial, viral) from a variety of solid tissues. The product has been optimized for maximal recovery of ultra-pure DNA without RNA contamination and are also compatible with inputs including: buffy coat, bone marrow, cells from culture, whole blood (fresh or stored), serum, plasma, and many biological liquid samples. For processing, simply digest the sample with the supplied Proteinase K then add the Genomic Lysis Buffer, vortex, and transfer the mixture to the supplied spin column. PCR inhibitors are effectively removed during the purification process and purified DNA is suitable for downstream applications including: PCR, Southern blotting, DNA sequencing, endonuclease digestion, bisulfite conversion/methylation analysis, etc.
|Spin Column
|DNA Size Limits
|Capable of recovering genomic and mitochondrial DNA sized fragments from 100 bp to ≥ 40 kb. If present, parasitic, microbial, and viral DNA will also be recovered. Typical fragment sizes range from 25 kb - 35 kb.
|Sample Sources
|Solid tissues (e.g., tailsnips, earpunches, adipose tissue, etc.), whole blood, plasma, serum, buffy coat, lymphocytes, cultured cells, buccal cells, FFPE tissues, semen, hair, and other biological sources are effectively processed using this kit.
High yield/quality DNA is successfully isolated from porcine muscle using the ZR Genomic DNA™-Tissue MiniPrep. Equivalent amounts (25 mg) of muscle tissue were processed using the ZR Genomic DNA™ Tissue MiniPrep after incubation with Proteinase K at 55ºC for the indicated times (in minutes) or overnight (O/N). Equal volumes of eluted DNA were analyzed in a 0.8% (w/v) TAE/agarose/ethidium bromide gel. M: 1 kb ladder (Zymo Research).
|Step 1
To a tissue sample (≤5 mg) in a microcentrifuge tube and add a solution of...
H2O 95 µl
2X Digestion Buffer 95 µl
Proteinase K 10 µl
|Step 2
Mix and then incubate the tube at 55oC for 1-3 hours.
Note: If required (e.g. FFPE samples), digesting samples overnight at 55oC with Proteinase K is possible without affecting the integrity of the DNA.
|Step 3
Add 700 µl Genomic Lysis Buffer to the tube and mix thoroughly by vortexing. Centrifuge at 10,000 x g for one minute to remove insoluble debris.
|Step 4
Transfer the supernatant to a Zymo-Spin™ IC Column in a Collection Tube. Centrifuge at 10,000 x g for one minute.
|Step 5
Add 200 µl of DNA Pre-Wash Buffer to the spin column in a new Collection Tube. Centrifuge at 10,000 x g for one minute.
|Step 6
Add 400 µl of g-DNA Wash Buffer to the spin column. Centrifuge at 10,000 x g for one minute.
|Step 7
Transfer the spin column to a clean microcentrifuge tube. Add ≥10 µl DNA Elution Buffer or water (e.g., add 40 µl if sampling 5 mg tissue) to the spin column. Incubate 2-5 minutes at room temperature, then centrifuge at top speed for 30 seconds to elute the DNA. The eluted DNA can be used immediately for molecular based applications or stored ≤-20ºC for future use.

Genomic DNA was isolated from the Caribbean dipsadid snake using the ZR Genomic DNA™ - Tissue MicroPrep; the isolated DNA was then used for PCR and mitochondrial and nuclear loci sequencing. Phylogenetic analysis confirms the morphology and its identification as the Cuban Racer, a species previously regarded as endemic to Cuba.
The ZR Genomic DNA™ - Tissue MicroPrep was used to isolate DNA from different anole specimens followed by PCR and sequencing. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that all samples have mtDNA originating from a native species yet the possibility of a new nonnative introduced anole cannot be ruled out.

Ben Haile, an attorney for Liz Nichols, confirmed the city's maneuver, first reported by the Oregonian. But Haile declined to immediately comment.
Nichols was sprayed by Sergeant Jeff McDaniel while shouting Officer Doris Paisley, Nichols' attorneys said. The attorneys said Paisley had driven a nightstick into Nichols' neck. Nichols, filing her suit in 2012, sought tens of thousands of dollars on account of pain and suffering caused by an eczema flareup and depression. Nichols lost her case last year.
The Oregonian, in an update to its initial story posted this afternoon, quotes a deputy city attorney laying bare the city's calculus.
Deputy city attorney David Landrum said he offered to drop the city's pursuit of costs if Nichols agreed to waive an appeal to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. He called Nichols' attorneys with the offer.
"I said I don't need to drag this money out of her," Landrum said, noting that he knows Nichols is a college student at Portland State University.
Landrum said he didn't hear anything for weeks, so he called back and got his answer: Nichols decided to appeal. So the city sought its payback.
The payment order from the city, for $7,116, could increase via interest.
Update 1:55 PM: Haile phoned back to confirm Nichols has filed an appeal despite the payment order.
"She believes there were some mistakes in the trial that are reasons the trial should be redone," he says.
He also said there's no recourse for challenging a payment order. (Never mind it looking like the city is preying on a poor college student. And never mind the question of whether the city could live without the $7,000 it spent defending itself in a case that was hardly frivolous. Because it can, especially in light of the millions it's spent on legal fees in police-related lawsuits for the past two decades.)
Says Haile: "It is an unfortunate risk for seeking justice in the courts these days."

I tried byteCommerce for a week or so. Two times a test-customer (who was a family member) tried to make a download on my website. They were able to pay at PayPal. However with the downloading section the problems started. The test-customar waited, and waited, and waited a bit more, but no download started. After being not able to download for 24 hours the download possibility expired (I had set this option). The test-customer wrote a message to byteCommerse. And then he waited again, and waited, and waited. But no reply. I also wrote a message to byteCommerce. And I also waited, and waited, and waited, without getting a reply. After a Google search I found out that the owner tried to sell this site three years back at Flippa. As reason he specified: "Because we're working on other projects, and byteCommerce right now is the most distant to our current focus on web 2.0 and social networks." Right. So byteCommerce is not in their focus. That explains why they deliver no service and ignore messages. The site is like a corpse without soul. It occupies (digital) space with it's (digital) body, but there's no soul inside to animate the body. It just lies there. Rotting away. Could somebody please cremate it? So my advice is to say byebye to byteCommerce. Which, I must ad, I find a real pity becaue I liked the thing they promised a lot.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

IDEAS to generate the north and south banks of the Tyne to attract new businesses are being looked into.
Under the banner of the 'Big River Project', representatives from education, private sector business, infrastructure groups and national and local politics and trade unions met on Friday to look at potential ways to breathe life into the area.
Caroline Flint, MP, shadow secretary of state for energy and climate change set out potential possibilities under the provisional title 'From The Turbinia to Turbines, rebuilding communities along the big river'.
North Tyneside MP Mary Glindon, who organised the conference with borough councillor Jim Allan, said: "There's a growing need to collaborate and share ideas, concepts and economic opportunities and the conference is a way to bring together various people and groups who have an interest in investing and supporting new economic opportunities.
"We've got over 40 companies and interested parties coming together with the common goal of 'recreating a vibrant local and regional economy'.
"We hope that our Big River Project will continue to develop and strengthen networks and economic expansion."
Coun Norma Redfearn added: "The key to success is to harness existing skills and skills bases, coupling them with the ability to be flexible enough to move into new markets and exploit the opportunities of the new economy, all of which will provide opportunities for a full range of job opportunities and key education and training for local people to enable them to help deliver the skills to feed the global renewable industries."

Hey guys:
I am working on my pre-licensing for the Life, Accident, and Health Insurance license in California.
I noticed that there is a 40 hour California general requirement, and a 12 hour California "code and ethics" requirement.
My questions is: does the exam specifically test for the material covered in this 12 hour "code and ethics" class, or can I just do the online work, get the certificate, and not worry about it for the exam?
You'll be tested on all of it. But, the insurance licensing stuff is super easy.
This is exam is a joke wish the 66 was that easy....got an 84 two years a go and didn't read the book just looked over my friends notes


text: I have numerous "crafty" items I'm into. I like to embroider and this year am working on my type face writing styles. I love cute office supplies and have an Erin Condren Life Planner that I love to decorate with stickers and etc. I made myself. I also use my Silhouette Portrait machine to make vinyl images, t-shirt designs and to spruce up old bags. Check out all my projects here!

Beginner Triathlon Swimming Tips
Aside from wondering how to get rid of those ugly goggle marks that never seem to go away, one of the most common things that beginner triathletes are concerned about when swimming is how to breathe. And naturally, this should be a concern because unless you're a mermaid (or merman), you probably can't breathe under water.
Maybe you feel out of breath after just one lap in the pool. Maybe you get lightheaded or feel nauseated while swimming. Or maybe you get a big gulp of pool water instead of air whenever you turn your head for a breath. Whatever your breathing challenge may be, here are a few tricks and tips to help you breath better and easier easier during your swim.
1. Don't Hold Your Breath
Let's do a little experiment. Even though I just told you not to, I want you to take a minute and try holding your breath. After a few seconds, you may notice that your heart starts to beat faster, your face turns red and you feel lightheaded and anxious. Even though you are on dry land with plenty of oxygen, when you hold your breath, your body automatically goes into panic mode. Now add water to the equation and you've got yourself a full blown panic attack.
Many beginner triathletes hold their breath when their face is under water and then try to exhale and inhale at the same time when they turn their head out of the water. There is simply not enough time to exhale AND inhale during that split second you turn your head to breathe. Also, holding your breath under water causes more carbon dioxide to build up in your body which makes you to feel like you can't catch your breath and that usually sends most swimmers into a panic.
The first step in establishing a breathing pattern that works for you is to exhale through your nose when your head is under water and then inhale when you turn your head out of the water.
*Trainer Tip – Davey finds it helpful to complete his exhale as he's turning his head out of the water. Then, he waits until his head is far enough away from the water to take in a gulp of air. This helps prevent getting a mouth full of water.
2. Hum
When I was training for my first triathlon, I would hum when I exhaled under the water. I've done it ever since and I've found that it makes a huge difference. This simple little trick helps you control your breathing because it encourages you to exhale slowly and continuously.
Not only will you be able to create a more steady and rhythmic breathing pattern, but for some reason, humming also has a calming effect.
Have you ever taken a yoga class where the instructor had your continuously hum the word "Om"? Well, it's the same idea. For me, humming when I exhale helps take my mind off of how anxious or panicked I feel and it helps me concentrate on swimming strong and on maintaining a steady breathing pattern.
3. Relax & Look Back
During your open water swim, it's inevitable that you will get water in your mouth. If this happens, DON'T PANIC! The best thing you can do is to relax. If you get water in your mouth, just spit it out and keep on swimming. One tip here is to not open your mouth so wide when breathing. You really don't get a better breath by opening your mouth wider, so if you open it just enough to get in a good gulp of air, chances are, you probably won't be getting as many gulps of water.
Another tip is to look back. Instead of simply turning your head to the side when you come up for a breath, try turning your head at an angle. When I do this, I try to look over my shoulder and then my head naturally comes up for a breath at an angle. By turning your head this way, you decrease your chances of getting water in your mouth because your head comes up in the wake of your swim stroke and the water is usually less choppy there.
4. Pick A Pattern
Whether you prefer bilateral breathing (take a breath on the right, swim 3 strokes, take a breath on the left, and repeat) or your have to breathe every stroke like I do, find a breathing pattern that works for YOU. Don't worry about what the experts recommend or what other swimmers do. Find YOUR pattern and then get in the groove and practice it!
Be aware that you may need to breathe more often on race day because the adrenaline rush of the swim start will probably speed up your breathing. The best thing you can do is to be flexible and just go with the flow and do whatever you need to do to breathe easy on race day. Practice different patterns and if you breathe every stroke, make sure you practice breathing on BOTH sides.
When I was training for my first triathlon, I found that breathing every stroke worked best for me. So when I swam laps, I took a breath on the right side every time. Well, on the day of my triathlon, I realized that buoys would be on my left and I wouldn't be able to see them if I swam how I practiced. I started the swim by breathing on my right, just like I had practiced, but about half way through, I looked up and saw that I had veered off course because I couldn't see the buoys. So right in the middle of my swim, I had to "learn" to breath on the left. My advice to you: PRACTICE breathing on both sides!
Breathing is something that we all have to do. It's pretty easy to breathe when you bike and run, but it can be a bit more challenging when you swim. By using these tips, practicing your swimming a few times a week and doing a few open water swims before your triathlon, you'll be more confident and relaxed on race day. Breathe easy and rest assured that you have trained well and you're ready to have an AWESOME swim! So take a deep breath and dive in!

What's the Best City for Pizza in America?
Quick, which has the best pizza in America, New York or Chicago?
The answer is neither.
Quick, which has the best pizza in America, New York or Chicago?
The answer is neither.
I love finding new ways to make pizza. Pizza is my family's favorite meal. I have made it with French bread for a crust, rolled up like a cinnamon roll or as calzones. It doesn't seem to matter how it's made, as long as you have the same basic ingredients you just can't go wrong.
Domino's is taking pizza delivery to new heights. Literally.
Saying that I love pizza would be an understatement. I consider myself a pizza connoisseur. If a pizza place can make a delicious cheese pie, than you know all their pizzas are awesome...
My family loves all pizza. It doesn't matter if it's frozen, homemade or straight out of the oven from a pizzeria. We love it! We love all kinds from Canadian bacon and pineapple, to pepperoni to sausage, onion and jalapeno to supreme. We're not prejudice. We love them all.
When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. And when life steers your car straight into a pizzeria, you order a large pie.
Growing up in Wyoming, the son of a Game and Fish Commissioner, caviar wasn't exactly a perfect compliment to the antelope steak that we ate for dinner four nights out of the week...
Pizza Hut has been on our semi grossed-out minds a lot recently, what with their new Kit Kat Pops and Cone Crust Pizza, among other heart attack-inducing creations. But to our surprise, the big cheeses over at the pizza chain have redeemed themselves in our books.
A loving family recently fulfilled a deceased relative's last wish by eating at a local restaurant and lavishing the waitress with a massive $500 tip. Fortunately for us, they captured the touching moment on video.

K9 Advantix for dogs, manufactured by Beyer, is a topical liquid treatment providing treatment and prevention of flea larvae and adult fleas, lice, ticks and biting flying insects such as mosquitos.
Containing imidacloprid and permethrin, K9 Advantix rapidly eliminates 98-100% of insects on your dog quickly and efficiently within 12 hours. K9 Advantix is said to prevent insect infestation for a month after the treatment.
What is Advantage?

If you live in an area that has a high tick or biting flying insect population, BudgetPetCare
would recommend K9 Advantix. However one of the active ingredients of K9 Advantix, permethrin, is highly toxic to cats so if you also have a cat, separation during treatment is necessary.

Subtle differences can make a big difference to your advertising success
Have a look at these two advert headlines and think about what makes them different:
"Ten reasons why you need to buy a new car".
"Ten reasons why you should buy your new car from Jim's Autos".
In the first headline your advert is not targeting anyone in particular, you are just trying to put the idea into people's minds that they need a new car. In the second headline you are much more specific because you are targeting only those people who have already decided to buy a new car – all they need to do now is decide where from, and you're helping provide that answer.
The difference may seem quite subtle but it's also quite powerful and a great way to advertise your business. People who are looking to buy a new car will consciously and subconsciously be attracted to reading your advert and your conversion rate is likely to be higher as a result.
This technique is called "skimming the cream" and is used quite regularly by the big ad agencies.
This technique also helps you when writing the ad because you don't have to waste time and space persuading people to buy, you can concentrate on giving them the reasons why you're the natural choice.
Once you've used the technique a few times you can also start to refine it and take it a step further. You might focus down to cars in a particular price bracket, or different types of car (saloon, SUV etc). Just be aware that the more targeted the ad the fewer enquiries you will get; this will be offset by the fact that the enquiries are more targeted but there is a balance to be struck and you will find this by testing and measuring the success of your ads over a period of time.
When you're busy running a business the last thing you want are people diverting you away from making a profit and the great advantage of this sort of ad is you don't get so many time wasters. If people respond then they're interested in buying the product from you. All you need to do is close the sale.
