2011 NFL Power Rankings: Week 3 - Top 10
Follow @walterfootball for updates.
- New England Patriots (2-0) - Previously: #1 - Tom Brady is on pace to throw for 7,520 yards and 56 touchdowns this year. I've discovered the secret to his success, and I'll reveal it in my Week 3 NFL Picks section.
For now, an exchange between Jim Nantz and Phil Simms during the Patriots-Chargers telecast (thanks to Facebook friend Steve L. for this):
Nantz: There's Rob Gronkowski, what do they call him?
Simms: I don't know.
No wonder Chris Simms sucked.
- Green Bay Packers (2-0) - Previously: #2 - The Packers surrendered the all-time rookie passing yardage mark to Cam Newton on Sunday. I think there are issues with this defense - especially with Nick Collins out for the year - but Aaron Rodgers doesn't seem to believe so. In the post-game press conference, he admitted that he was relieved to play Carolina this early, since it'll be scary once Cam Newton figures things out. He also said he was impressed with Newton about a billion times.
Remember when every single NFL Draft analyst thought Newton really didn't deserve the No. 1 pick? I'd make fun of Mel Kiper, Mike Mayock and the Sun Tan Man, but I wrote this gem of Carolina's selection of Newton:
[Newton] is not pro-ready at all either, which is a concern. Running a Looney Tunes offense at Auburn for one year did not prepare him for the NFL whatsoever.
Whoops. Looks like everyone was wrong. More evidence that the NFL Draft is a complete crapshoot.
- New Orleans Saints (1-1) - Previously: #4 - That stupid yard the Saints couldn't get last week could decide homefield advantage in the playoffs. If so, that's terrible news for New Orleans because I don't see them winning at Lambeau in January.
At any rate, let's go to Notes from NFL.com GameCenter - a list of a few stupid comments I read on NFL.com's GameCenter and my thoughts on them:
You better "prey" and hope that your English teacher doesn't give you a pop quiz this week.
2. "the ravens are too ham told people that flacco was holdin back for week1 but chuck has not boy he is lettin them fly go Raven! "
So "ham" means "good" in GameCenter slang. Can I presume that "green egg" means "bad?"
3. "steelers stoel the todd heep thing when ben throws to the tight end"
Forget Tony Gonzalez, Shannon Sharpe and Mark Bavaro. Throwing the ball originated when Kyle Boller and Joe Flacco threw to Todd "Heep" - and the damn Steelers stoel their idea!
- New York Jets (2-0) - Previously: #6 - Poor Luke McCown. Thirty years from now, he'll still be having nightmares about his team's 32-3 loss against the Jets.
I feel sorry for his wife too. She'll have to hear Luke mumble the following in his sleep for the next 50 or so years, "No... NO... No Darrelle Revis... don't intercept... don't intercept... my passes... my passes too weak... and inaccurate... REVIS!!! AHHH!!! REVIS!!! NOOOOO!!! SHUT UP JASON HILL!!! DON'T PROVOKE... DON'T PROVOKE REVIS!!!"
- Baltimore Ravens (1-1) - Previously: #3 - I'm beginning to notice a pattern. Last year, the Ravens upset an AFC Championship participant in Week 1 and went on to suffer an upset on the road against the crappy Bengals the following game. This year, the Ravens essentially upset an AFC Championship participant in Week 1 and went on to suffer an upset on the road against the crappy Titans the following game.
Note to Joe Flacco, Ray Lewis and the rest of the Ravens: Don't celebrate a Week 1 shocking victory by drinking heavily, having sex with hookers and snorting coke. Focus on your Week 2 game next time.
- Pittsburgh Steelers (1-1) - Previously: #8 - Here's something interesting I discovered after Facebook friend Kyle A. told me that he bet the Titans because the Ravens were coming off a victory against the Steelers. Kyle believed that Baltimore had an abysmal record after defeating Pittsburgh.
I looked it up, and it's not entirely true. The Ravens' spread record in this situation is 3-5, though they are 1-4 if they have to play on the road. The intriguing part is a similar trend that applies to all teams:
All teams are 17-35 against the spread after beating the Steelers since 2001.
Isn't that nuts? I'd make a joke about Ben Roethlisberger raping his opponents into submission, but that's silly. He wasn't around before 2004.
- Chicago Bears (1-1) - Previously: #5 - I'm going to post my thoughts on the Bears' failed cover in my Week 2 analysis on the Week 3 NFL Picks page. Instead, a word on the stupid NFLShop.com commercial with Alyssa Milano.
First of all, I've always hated these commercials. I despise the song, and the theme is stupid. I don't know many women who like football enough to wear football gear to begin with, and those who do are proud to simply own several jerseys. They're not going to wear that crap, even if Milano models it well.
Second, where the hell did Milano go? This ad was at least somewhat bearable because we got to see her at the end. Now, they've replaced her with some short black woman with a lesbian haircut. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
- Philadelphia Eagles (1-1) - Previously: #7 - QB Dog Killer has now made 14 starts with the Eagles. In his first seven starts, he had only one turnover. In the next seven starts, he's had 12 turnovers (seven interceptions, five fumbles).
- Atlanta Falcons (1-1) - Previously: #9 - Speaking of Philadelphia's quarterback, Facebook friend Dave P. brought up a great point:
I'm baffled by the fact that Falcons fans are celebrating Mike Vick with signs like "we miss you." All he did in Atlanta was not earn his contract by not working hard, then he disgraced them with the dogfighting scandal. He also lied about dogfighting to the Falcons owner and Roger Goodell.
I have a strong feeling that things will end poorly in Philadelphia as well.
- Detroit Lions (2-0) - Previously: #10 - I'll move up the Lions soon. Beating the crappy Chiefs doesn't count.
By the way, I really think Jamaal Charles' injury really epitomized how much Detroit has improved. The team is so tough that even the mascot is taking out the opponent's best player.
2011 NFL Power Rankings: Week 3 - Bottom 10
32. Seattle Seahawks (0-2) - Previously: #32 - The score may not show it, but the Seahawks were oh, so close to pulling the upset over the Steelers. They would have done so if Tarvaris Jackson didn't suck, and if the offensive line could actually block, and if Marshawn Lynch had running lanes, and if the defensive line could pressure the quarterback, and if the secondary could stop Mike Wallace. Seattle was THIS close.
31. Indianapolis Colts (0-2) - Previously: #30 - Beloved GameCenter poster Taton, an avid Colts fan, hasn't posted anything in three weeks. Here was the last thing he wrote on GameCenter:
coach Cadwell never learn from his mistake oh well Colts wont be good if Colts keep Cadwell
Perhaps Taton should coach the Colts instead of "Cadwell." Against the Browns, Indianapolis challenged a stupid 2-yard completion on 2nd-and-9. They won the review to put Cleveland in a 3rd-and-9 instead of a 3rd-and-7. Unfortunately, "Cadwell's" strategy failed, as Colt McCoy converted the first down on the next play anyway.
30. Kansas City Chiefs (0-2) - Previously: #29 - Through two games, the Chiefs have 10 points and nine turnovers. Thank you @kranzicans for that stat.
By the way, for any Kansas City fan angry that Detroit ran up the score Sunday, please forgive Matthew Stafford and company. The Lions simply have never maintained a huge lead in the fourth quarter before, and they had no idea that it's frowned upon to keep throwing the ball.
29. Cleveland Browns (1-1) - Previously: #31 - I'm going to b**** and moan about the Browns covering the 2.5 at Indianapolis in my Week 3 NFL Picks, so here are more Notes from NFL.com GameCenter:
If ESPN hired Yoda, I'm pretty sure he would say something like this.
2. "2 bad teams going at it ... unfortinitly for NFC West I bet the only games that matters is the games vs Devision and eveything eles is so-so OVer-all"
I bet your parents wish your spelling was "so-so Over-all." That would be a huge improvement.
3. "be honest Packers and Panthers fans would i be better with Driver or Steve Smith at my line up"
You want honesty? You're a complete dumba** to go to NFL.com GameCenter for fantasy advice.
28. Minnesota Vikings (0-2) - Previously: #21 - I can't believe the Buccaneers came back and won. I gave up on my Tampa +2.5 zero-unit play.
It was really dreadful for the Bucs in the first half. They couldn't do anything. During the early games, forum member Hyperborean and I had a brief exchange:
Hyperborean: What's happening in Minnesota, other than the Bucs sucking?
Me: Bucs really sucking.
27. San Francisco 49ers (1-1) - Previously: #26 - E-mailer Harris M. alerted me that Rotoworld had the following blurb on Tony Romo following Dallas' victory over San Francisco:
Anyone questioning Romo's ability in late game situations needs to rethink their stance after tonight's comeback.
Ah, yes. Because a game against the crappy 49ers in which the Cowboys were favored should define someone's ability to perform in the clutch.
26. Jacksonville Jaguars (1-1) - Previously: #20 - Idiot Jags receiver Jason Hill talked trash this past week, calling the Jets and Darrelle Revis "overhyped." The kicker is that Hill didn't even play against New York on Sunday. Since he didn't get to back up his words on the field, I called him up for an interview:
ME: Hey Jason, thanks for joining me. You know I have to ask. Do you still feel like the Jets are overhyped?
HILL: Yes! The Jets are f***ing trash. Darrelle Revis is f***ing trash. New York is overhyped!
ME: Really? After that 32-3 drilling?
HILL: That's only because I didn't play. The Jets are f***ing trash.
ME: I just don't get how you can talk trash and not play. Have you no shame?
HILL: I don't need shame because Revis is overhyped and f***ing trash.
ME: Well, I have a surprise for you, Jason. I have Darrelle Revis here with me!
HILL: What!?!?!?!
REVIS: What's up, Jason?
HILL: Is that really you, Darrelle?
REVIS: Yes, it is. I hear you've been calling me and my team overhyped.
HILL: No! No... No! I swear, Darrelle! I haven't said anything of the sort! All lies!
REVIS: I just heard you say that I'm "f***ing trash!"
HILL: Please, Darrelle! Please, oh God! I didn't mean it! I was joking!
REVIS: It didn't sound like you were joking to me.
HILL: Darrelle, I beg you! I didn't mean to say it! I yield! Yield, I say! Yield! Please have mercy!
REVIS: Fine, fine. Whatever.
HILL: Oh, thank you, Darrelle! You are too kind! Too kind!
REVIS: Whatever, man. I'm going out to lunch. Thanks for having me on, Walt.
ME: No problem, Darrelle. See ya later. All right, Jason. Darrelle's gone, so we can end this interview.
HILL: Good! Because Darrelle Revis overhyped and f***ing trash!
ME: How'd I know you were going to say that?
25. Miami Dolphins (0-2) - Previously: #23 - One of the announcers on the CBS broadcast team had the following to say about the crowd at the Dolphins-Texans game:
It's so hot on the field that there are more fans on the sidelines than there are in the seats!
Guess all of this B-list celebs aren't selling tickets, eh? Somewhere out there, Celebrity Man just had a stroke reading that comment.
24. Cincinnati Bengals (1-1) - Previously: #24 - Andy Dalton was really impressive at Denver. Sure, he was playing a crappy Bronco defense missing Champ Bailey and Elvis Dumervil, but he looks like he could be really good in a year or two.
At any rate, here's a recap of the Giants-Rams game:
1. Despite losing 28-16, the Rams outgained the Giants by 61 yards. Sometimes yardage stats are misleading, but this one is not. St. Louis should have had the lead against New York, particularly in the first half. The problem was that the Rams kept making costly errors:
- Greg Salas muffed a punt in the first quarter, which led to a Hakeem Nicks touchdown.
- Sam Bradford threw a backward pass to Cadillac Williams, who dropped the ball. Cadillac didn't recognize that it was a lateral, opting to just stand around while New York linebacker Michael Boley scooped the ball up and ran 65 yards for a touchdown. As this happened, I posted the following in the forum:
What the ****, same ****ing bull**** as last week.
- The Rams had three possessions inside the Giants' 7-yard line in the first half, including a first-and-goal at the 1, yet they couldn't score a single touchdown. No one was able to get open.
- The second half of this contest featured countless drops by the St. Louis wideouts. Everyone had a hand in it, but Billy Bajema and Greg Salas were guilty of key drops in the fourth quarter that could have moved the chains on third down. Danario Amexander (3-122, TD) and Mike Sims-Walker (6-92) put together nice statistical games, but had issues getting open all night.
2. Bradford (22-46, 331 yards, TD) looked really comfortable in the up-tempo no-huddle offense in the first half. It was so effective that on one play, two New York defenders faked injuries to stop the action. I don't know why the Giants weren't penalized or a charged a timeout. This was one of many botched calls by the refs in what was a horribly officiated game.
The purpose of bringing up the no-huddle offense is that the Rams inexplicably went away from it. I have no idea why they did that. They had the Giants on their heels. It's like Josh McDaniels outsmarted himself.
3. The Giants were able to run the ball at will against the Rams, as Ahmad Bradshaw, Brandon Jacobs and D.J. Ware totaled 131 rushing yards on 34 carries. On the first drive, I posted the following on the forum, "Just run the ball, Giants." It was working so well there was no need to air it out. Coincidentally, Eli Manning tossed a pick on the next play. I replied to my own post:
Way to not listen to me, a**holes.
4. As for Manning, he was definitely better than last week, going 18-of-29 for 200 yards, two touchdowns and that pick. He still didn't look comfortable with his receivers though. This will be an issue against the Eagles and their elite cornerbacks, especially if Mario Manningham can't play coming off a concussion.
5. Facebook friend Steve T. posted the following on my wall:
For all you fantasy buffs out there: be sure to add Greg Salas in your points-per-dropped-receptions leagues!
23. Denver Broncos (1-1) - Previously: #27 - Of all the teams in these power rankings, I had the toughest time placing the Broncos. Their 24-22 victory over the Bengals was obviously unimpressive, but Champ Bailey, Elvis Dumervil and Brandon Lloyd were all out, and John Fox had to use Tim Tebow at receiver because he ran out of wideouts. At least that kept the fans from booing.

Lions lose to a team that means nothing to them:"they were looking ahead."
Saints in their version of Auburn-Alabama on the road in one of the tougher stadiums to play in in the NFL(with a matchup versus probably the best team in the league on the road as their next game):"it should be a rule that they drop them 2 spots." #FAILlogic

@ Steve T
"Why do the Dolphins move up two spots for losing?" Same reason the Saints dropped two spots for winning... because despite what he says about Cam Newton he is ultimately WAY too high on the Panthers.
Saints drop?

Are you kidding? You're mad that they went on the road after a 4 day turnaround to beat their division rivals in their own stadium? The Saints did not "almost lose" to the Falcons... That's a complete knee jerk reaction. Absolutely ridiculous, Walt. You bumped the Panthers up who ALSO "almost lost" last weekend. If Mike Wallace catches that pass, the Dolphins would have won the game.

"He could be in Arizona right now, throwing to Larry Fitzgerald in a dome, being backed by that awesome defense."
And placed on IR behind that offensive line and Arians' Madden offense.

The Packers are 9th. based on what they could be when Rodgers comes back. They currently remind me so much of the 2011 Colts. They totally screwed the pooch on the backup QB and if not for the Lions ineptitude (They should in no way be in the top ten either) or the Bears inconsistencies, the Packers playoff chances would be toast.
Walt is BIASED

The Jaguars beat the Texans IN HOUSTON dominating the game from start to finish and you place the Jaguars 32nd and the Texans 31st?
Your credibility stinks like rotten fish.

Bobby Rainey was on the Browns or Ravens in week 5.
Good pick up by Mark Dominik, but he still has to answer for letting Bennett walk and gift wrapping Talib to the Pats. Don't forget Freeman is one of Dominik's.

Too funny watching the homers come on here each week to rip the rankings. I also notice the KC homers have left after he rightfully kept them around #8 all year and they have shown their true colors recently. If you haven't figured it out, Walter is not trying to rank these teams on just what they have done but what he predicts they will do / finish at the end of the year. This is why he keeps GB high and also has knocked NO down since they most likely won't have home field throughout the playoffs.

Sorry Walter, Rodgers or no Rodgers, any team that ties the Vikings deserve to be outta the Top 10. Of course, if you stop cradling Rodgers' balls you would know that.

I'm so embarrassed I used to agree with you on a lot of things u posted. The panthers ahead of the saints? Yea those close games against the falcons and the bucs might b bcuz they are division rivals and everyone in the NFC south knows that's the saints r the top dog and they go above and beyond to dethrone them to no avail. I mean the bucs would've beat the Seahawks is they didn't shoot themselves in the foot. I bet ur head would've blown up if that happened. It's the NFL buddy any team can win on any given day and division rivals will have a 7 point difference 95% of the time.
And for gods sake stop trying to b funny it's not ur thing. Neither is power rankings, picking spreads and pretty much ur life's work (this doodie site of yours).
Yeah um....

Dropping the Packers outside the top 10 is overdue. You are too fixated on you man crush with discount doublecheck. This team is 5-5-1, they are 0-3-1 in their past 4 games and they can't even beat a crap Vikings team at home. Again blind homerism and emotion impairing this power ranking. At least make yourself semi-credible and rank the Cardinals ahead of the Packers

Did you have to do much to the file after "compiling" it in GM4Mac, or was it just a matter of submitting to Apple?
Apple sets some standards that you have to follow, so it's more than just 'compiling' the app: you need to take care of modifying the source code here and there to make sure the game meets those standards.
You may notice that YPWMI Lite behaves more like a Mac app, and less like a GM game (for example, it doesn't write its save file to the directory it's in). Little things like that are required by Apple.
After these are done, you have to modify a few parameters in the .app bundle (nothing too complicated), and submit.
All in all, it's a 'anyone can do it' process, if you actually know how the Mac platform works.

OTTUMWA, IOWA -- Wapello County is spreading the word on one of the biggest food drives nation wide.
The Post Office, Southern Iowa Food Bank, United Way and Boy Scouts are all partnering together for the 20th annual Letter Carriers Stamp Out Food Drive. It will be held Saturday, May 14. Residents are encouraged to drop off non-perishable food items in bags at the post office, or leave them by the mail box for carriers to pick them up.
People can also buy food at Fairway's Foods where Boy Scouts Troop 11 will drop it off to the post office. The food will go to local food banks for people in need this summer.
Wapello County United Way Executive Director Desiree Johnson says despite common belief, the summer time, not the holidays, are when people need food the most.
"During the summer time people forget about the food bank. That's actually the time when young kids need food the most. During the summer time, kids aren't able to access free and reduced price meals at home. Remember how important it is to advance the common good of our community."
The food drive has gathered a billion pounds of food in its history; including 8,000 pounds last year.

Prosecutors in Zimbabwe have dropped charges against three women accused of raping men to collect their semen for tribal rituals, after DNA tests failed to link them to 17 men who claimed they were victims.
Prosecutors said Thursday that DNA evidence cleared the women, who will now face prostitution charges.
The women, aged in their 20s, and a male companion were arrested in November on charges of "aggravated indecent assault" amid allegations they lured men into a car and forced them to have sex at gunpoint, knifepoint or using drugged drinks to collect semen for tribal rituals.
Police said 31 condoms containing semen were found in the car.
In a case that has fascinated the nation, the women denied the allegations, saying they had sex for money and didn't throw out the condoms. Prostitution is rife in Zimbabwe after years of economic meltdown and soaring unemployment.
Sophie, 26, and Netsai Nhokwara, 24, who are sisters, and Rosemary Chakwizira, 28, had faced lengthy prison sentences on the charges of aggravated sexual assault, equivalent to the penalty for rape committed by men.
Soliciting and prostitution charges carry a small fine.
According to court papers, 17 men stepped forward with claims they were victims of women said to be in a syndicate preying on men flagging down cars or minibuses for lifts along the nation's highways since 2010. One said he was sprayed with, and forced to drink, a pungent liquid.
Local media reports have suggested some men alleging they were abducted and sexually assaulted used it as an excuse for spending nights away from home with prostitutes.
The arrests of the three women in the provincial city of Gweru after their car was involved in an accident fuelled intense rumours that a syndicate was collecting semen for rituals. There is a local belief that the semen is more powerful if obtained through sexual coercion, and that it is not so potent if gathered voluntarily.

CandleCurrie Culver is about fifty-five years old, in good health, living in a comfortable retirement in the Rockies with his wife. In the wake of the Meme Wars that swept the planet two generations before, Currie, his wife, and almost everyone on Earth have in their minds a copy of One True, software that grants its hosts limited telepathy and instills a kind of general cooperation. In his younger days, Currie hunted "comboys"--people who had unplugged from the global net in order to evade One True, and who hid in wilderness areas, surviving by raiding the outposts of civilization. Now Currie is called back into service to capture the last comboy still at large, a man who calls himself Lobo. With his high tech equipment, thoroughly plugged into the global net, Currie sets out to bring Lobo in. Instead, Lobo captures Currie, and manages to deprogram him. Thrown back on the resources of his own intelligence, courage, and wisdom for the first time in twenty-five years, Currie finds himself in a battle of minds with his captor . . . with results that will change the lives of everyone on Earth. In the best tradition of John W. Campbell and Robert A. Heinlein, Candle is a novel about individualism and society that will leave readers breathless, arguing, and demanding more. |

In May 2011 and again in June the same year, Sony's databases were broken into by hacker group Lulz Security and the hackers made merry with more than a million passwords. The hackers exploited vulnerabilities in Sony's systems by sending a simple SQL code and retrieved the passwords. That incident has contributed in part to Sony's current financial woes. And it underscored how important it is for companies and individuals to understand the internet and network security.
Most hackers infect systems and gain illegal entry by exploiting vulnerabilities in networks. These vulnerabilities manifest themselves in browsers, emails, software that are not updated regularly and sometimes even in files, which can act as a backdoor for viruses. Bringing in a mobile device to a wireless network could also be a vulnerability. For large organizations that have at least 50,000 terminals, not to mention other mobile devices connecting to them, keeping track of cracks in security is a huge challenge. Although there are many tools to monitor new weaknesses, Bangalore-based innovator Samir Kelekar thinks that they are not enough.
He is a US patent holder for "Systems and methods for real-time network-based vulnerability assessment" and he believes his tools can help companies monitor network vulnerabilities in realtime. "Several software applications downloaded nowadays have security holes and make the systems they are downloaded on prone to attacks," he says. Network-based vulnerability tools typically run periodically, at frequencies provided by company policies. "However, a security hole may be planted in the time between two consecutive runs of the tool, and such security holes may be missed completely by the existing tools. By means of a software agent deployed on the user's machine, we enable what is called real-time detection of security holes and ensure that such security holes are never missed," Kelekar says.
Present day systems have another problem too. In large organizations with thousands of terminals connected to a system, assessments are done only in small samples. "Vulnerability tests for core infrastructures such as servers are done quarterly for most companies," says Altaf Halde, managing director of security firm Kaspersky Lab's South Asia operations. "We do sample vulnerability tests for a network. We perform tests for 50 end terminals say for a network of 500."
The benefits of real-time monitoring are evident as samples cannot always account for all security gaps and Kelekar likens his tool to an anti-virus software. Just as an anti-virus scans a storage device or an attachment file that is downloaded for malicious files, his tool scans an addition to the network. The addition can be in the form of a new device accessing the network or a programme connecting to the network. Kelekar's patent was awarded in February this year. The patent is co-owned by Praveer Gupta, an entrepreneur who provided patent related expertise for this invention.
Kelekar believes his technology has huge potential in financial institutions and services where a lot of sensitive data is accessed from scores of terminals. He also says that today, when companies are framing bring your own device' policies, cracks may occur more often and it is important to monitor mobile ports of access in real time. "We are in talks with various networks, and security and software companies to license the patent," he says.

Smoking is bad for your health, but for Taking Back Sunday frontman Adam Lazzara , it almost killed him. During a recording session over the weekend, Lazzara stepped outside for a cigarette when a tree fell on top of him.
According to TMZ.com , Lazzara's bandmates heard the singer call for help, but could not lift the tree off of him. Emergency services and a local fire department were then called to saw the tree into pieces to release Lazzara.
Lazzara's leg was shattered in the accident and will be in a cast for the next 4-6 weeks. There's no word yet if Lazzara's injury will affect the band's tour dates in Australia next month.

I am fortunate to only have a single article to point to, and it is over on ReadWriteWeb: http://readwriteweb.com/archives/facebook_goes_lite_and_tests_twitter-like_version.php.
That article contains links to all the relevant stories, but in case you haven't heard (or in fact do not care), Facebook bought FriendFeed a few days ago, and is now offering a lite version of their site to selected testers. Whatevs.
The part that gets me is this line, from the linked article:
It is interesting to see that Facebook is working on this now, especially given that it only announced the acquisition of FriendFeed yesterday. If these screenshots turn out to be true, then this would be a full-force attack on Twitter. FriendFeed was often heralded as a potential challenger for Twitter, though it never quite got the mainstream traction to fulfill this promise.
Emphasis mine.
What does that even mean? What are the stakes here, what do people have to gain, and more to the point, what is there to lose? I hear this kind of talk all the time, likely due to the streams of consciousness I follow, and it is starting to grind on me. We are talking about websites that are held together by user capital. I think everyone who cares understands that, but one glaring flaw in their planning is being ignored by most.
User capital (and I really want to call it social capital, but I will avoid that for now) is indeed an investment, but the relationship here is really skewed. There is a huge amount of subscription overlap, and the most used tools to interact with these network services tend to favor vendor neutrality (which are in themselves often subscription services, like, um, FriendFeed). These two ideas, investment and overlap, are what blow my mind about the language of social network competitions.
In the case of investment, the current state of social network economics make absolutely no sense at all. It is particularly ironic that newspapers, where experienced folks get paid to report, are failing at a time where social networks, which literally have no content generation capability outside of the throngs of eager volunteers who signup to use their site, are thriving. When some hot new network pops up some percentage of the population goes and invests a substantial amount of human hours in creating what is essentially the appeal of a given site. Sure, the ability to customize search might sound snazzy, but there is no such thing as the perfect search. Folks are investing in two things: connections and conversations. And those both require a context that is continually moving, for society, sub-cultures, and individuals. Snazzy search is just another tool for keeping an eye on that context.
This leads us to overlap. If what makes these sites different from each other are the tools that allows people to efficiently invest in the connections and conversations they value, then the rate of overlap is determined partially by the barrier to "participate". That is in quotes because it isn't as simple and hanging out and saying hi to your friends. There is a technical barrier, as well as some social stuff, but that is what we will call participation for this post. You have some people investing a little of their time, and honestly, they aren't the ones who are going to keep the lights on or the servers running. They won't be click monkeys, and will resist any attempt to coerce them into helping a company game their stats for their next round of funding. On the other end you have people who will invest a whole lot of time to a site, adding value all over the place, poking folks and replying, sending cat photos and presents to any and everyone. These are the bread and butter of Mybooks and Facepages out there. And they are also the most likely user of other tools that facilitate the connections and conversations that they were having before, during and after the TwitFeed came along. They are the ones that use the web-app/platform/lifestyle of the moment to keep an eye on the context of their lives.
And they are the ones that are getting warred on.
These tools can't compete against each other; they are each other. What the meta-blob of social network watchers is failing to report on is the bottom-line for the investors of these sites.
If what they say is true, and these companies are getting more and more aggressive with each other, well, that is great news. Maybe they will become such crappy tools that all those wonderful social networkers out there will decide that it is finally time to get that web/tumble/micro/whatev-blog going, and learn the open standards and policies that create a better CMC experience for all of us. Or just trash talk the worst one into oblivion on the new shiny network.
And if they are blowing this out of proportion then it means we have another case of "dog bites man" syndrome, and there really isn't much happening that is enriching, even in tech news.
Now then, I am not an expert on social networks. If I were not a pacifist, I would say I would punch anyone who said otherwise about me. I am trying to come to things in my life as a beginner, with a fresh outlook. This is the direction my outlook is taking me. Why isn't anyone talking about how the investors have no say in the product? Why isn't anyone pointing out social networks that put you in control of your content, and exhibit the inherent appreciation that such networks have for their members (see how I didn't say users there? Member sounds softer, warmer. Like the Oracle and her cookies.). Why do people care more about quasi-global networks with limited functionality, instead of intentional communities that they actually belong to (like their region, school, club, or tribe)?
There is a context being framed for you at this very moment. Think about it.
One place to think about it is in good company.

I thought it had to be edited on a phone as well, which is one of the reasons I wanted in on this. Turns out, I was wrong… but it made it that much more challenging! It is such an awesome idea that I wanted in on the fun. Since the BMW is broken at the moment, I decided it would be funny to make a video about my truck. We all know that when you peel the layers back, I'm a good ol' boy who likes to chat up the CB in my truck on the way to the shooting range. So I thought this would be the chance to really embellish this and make it over-the-top. What started out as me jotting a few ideas down, turned into a script which turned into a 3.5 hour shoot with Greg of my spitting coffee (dip spit) out before every over-twang'd line. I even had a pair of truck nuts 2-day aired to make it in time.I color graded the footage on my phone with Magic Bullet Movie Looks, did the visual effects with Action Movie FX, and edited it all (including voiceover) using iMovie for iPhone. I even uploaded it straight to Vimeo from iMovie. This video never once saw a computer. AT ALL!I had an absolute blast making this from every angle… and I can't believe we live in a time where something like this can be made using a cell phone. It is absolutely incredible! Special thanks to Greg Thore for helping me shoot this, and to Alexander Grant for coming up with the idea for this contest!

The first weekend in October, we all pitched in on a 16-passenger van and trekked up to Nashville for Adam and Alyson Szczuka's wedding. This is a glimpse at what went on.Special thanks Hertrech Eugene for tag teaming on the shots!

Where do I even start? This is a project that I have been wanting to do for years. On the surface, it is merely a 3-year montage of footage I have shot using my Canon 7D since diving head-first into the realm of DSLR videography. But I feel strongly, that it is impossible to view this video from the surface. In fact, this video pulls you into the very depths of my heart and soul in ways I never thought possible. I stand strong in my conviction that I have never created anything in my life up to this point that harnesses and exposes that very same unfiltered heart and soul. Simply stated… this is the most powerful work I have ever created. Read more
rnVideo LinkrnVideo LinkBack during the week of Formula Drift Atlanta, we got some great press coverage from WSBTV in regard to the proposed legislation to ban drifting within Atlanta city limits. I got a phone call from Alex asking if I could be at the news station in 20 minutes… and the next thing I knew, they were shooting us live from the chopper! I managed to obliterate a day-old pair of BFGoodrich g-Force™ Sport COMP-2™ tires in the process. I found out those tires have a ton of grip! It was a wild experience!They don't allow embedding, so click the image to launch the player on WSB's website.

The Sisters truly were stars at Visitation's Esprit de Noel bazaar last weekend. Mother Jacqueline was not only terrific as a raffle ticket sales woman, but when the time came she also drew the winning ticket. Sr. Berchmans then had the honor of calling the lucky family who won the car.
The annual car raffle at Esprit is an important fund raiser for the school and generates income that directly benefits the school and its programs.

This is just an introduction to the lives of Maxine and Jennifer.
"I don't want to move again!" I heard my sister scream to me as she ran up the stairs to her room.
I didn't want to move either but it wasn't my fault I mean we were about to get separated if we didn't move soon. Our parents had both died and my uncle was supposed to be here taking care of us but each time the government came to check on us he was missing. I mean why couldn't we just stay together we only had two years left of high school but of course we had to be separated. Maybe if I talked to the people we could come to an agreement.
"I mean why can't we just live by ourselves Maxine?" I heard Jennifer ask as she barged back in the living room.
"Because we are both sixteen not adults yet and I told you to call me Max." I said as I sat on the couch turning on the TV.
"But we're so alike, plus we're twins we can't be separated!" Jennifer said as she sat on me and put her arms around my neck as she laid her head on my chest.
"Yea I know and I'm going to talk to them and see if I can come up with a deal."
"Ugh I hope you can keep us together, sis you're the only family I have left besides uncle George."
"I know and I'm going to try and keep us together legally but if we can't we're running." I said as I held my sister almost like I would be holding a baby. I know we were going to have some problems but a good friend of my mom's had made some fake IDs, birth certificates, passports, etc. and well my family was pretty wealthy. Don't worry we thought about the government stopping our accounts which is why we transferred them to other accounts again with the help of my mom's friend.
I could feel my sister's tears and I gently held her as she cried. I hated when my sister cried or was afraid, I know I sound really protective and hey I was. She might be older than me by a few minutes but she was still my baby sis to me. I don't really know how much time had passed but my sister had finally calmed down. So I picked her up and carried her to her bedroom where I gently laid her on the bed. As I moved back I looked at my sister and promised to myself that she was not going to lose me like she had lost everyone else.
I walked downstairs and was just about to read a book when phone began to ring. As I looked at the number I realized it was the government.
"Ms. Thompson?"
"Yes, how may I help you?"
"I was just calling to inform you about a man who is willing to take your sister and you both."
"Really?" I asked a bit uneasy about a man willing to let us live with him.
"Yes, now I know that you may be concerned about him being a single man but he is a homosexual man so…"
"Oh um well I'll talk to my sister tomorrow since she is asleep but I think it would be a good idea." I said with relief knowing that we would be together.
"I'm sorry if you don't think it's a good idea, but he is the only one who would accept you both as teenagers, twins, and one being gay and the other straight."
"I know it must have been hard but thank you for trying, but could you tell me the location?"
"Oh yes it's in Montana in a small town, we will sent you the accurate location by email if you accept the new location."
"Yea I accept." I said knowing that my sister wouldn't mind it.
"Very well, I will send you the address and would you like us to take you or would you rather go yourself?"
"We'll go ourselves, when do we leave though?"
"I think the sooner the better."
"Very well, we can leave by tomorrow."
"Okay I will inform him and I will talk to you when you arrive."
"Thank you." I said before hanging up. I was happy that we would be able to live together without running. I laid down on the couch and fell asleep.
I was so lost in my sleep that I didn't even notice Jennifer on me until I felt something on my face. As I opened my eyes I looked up and saw that she was holding a marker.
"Oh hell no, tell me you didn't write on me." I said as I sat up and she went flying to the ground, which she didn't care because she was laughing too hard. I ran towards the restroom but saw that I didn't have anything, that little brat only scared me.
"Oh my gosh you should have seen your face." I heard Jennifer say as she kept on laughing.
"Yea yea whatever." I said as I moved to the kitchen to make some coffee.
"So what you plan on doing?"
"Well the lady called last night."
"Oh my gosh what did she say?"
"That we would be separated." I said acting like if I was upset.
"We have to go then!" Jennifer screamed clearly freaking out.
"Can't they're outside watching the house."
"No! This can't be happening!"
I couldn't help but burst on in laughter at the terror in her eyes.
"OMG I hate you so much!" Jennifer screamed as she ran towards me and punched me on the chest.
"Ouch you brat." I said as I held her wrists and pushed her against the table making her cry out but she ended up getting my hands and flipping me on the ground.
"Damn, I knew I shouldn't have showed you how to defend yourself against me."
"Ha-ha yea you shouldn't have because now I can kick your ass."
"Yea whatever come on we need to hurry up."
We began to carry all the stuff that was ours and left what was our uncle's. Once we were finished we drove to the airport bought some tickets and headed to Montana. Jennifer didn't care where we were going just as long as we were together, and I felt the same. We were sisters for life, no one could change that.

I recently had the opportunity to appear on Unbelievable?
with Justin Brierley (the show will air this Saturday, August 24th2013).
Justin had two skeptics lined up to ask questions about Biblical reliability
and offer specific, detailed challenges related to portions of the Gospels of
Luke, Mark and Matthew. Are you prepared to answer every challenge that might
be offered about the historicity of the Gospels? Do you even know every challenge
that might be offered? How do you respond when someone offers a challenge for which
you don't have immediate access to the all the pertinent data? This particular episode
of Unbelievable? illustrated an important principle for all of us as Christian
Case Makers. Historical challenges are often complicated, nuanced and detailed,
and while it is nearly impossible to remember all the data related to every objection,
there are four overarching principles of witness reliability appropriate to the
task. These are the same four principles I've offered as a template in Cold
Case Christianity. I used this template to evaluate the Gospels when I
was an unbelieving skeptic, and these four principles will help you assess any
challenge offered against the Gospel accounts:
Every time I encounter an historical objection related to the Gospels, I expect there to be a wealth of information on both sides of the issue; skeptics will have written volumes and Christian apologists will have responded in kind. How is anyone to know which side of the equation to trust? I typically use the four principles I've just described to evaluate both the objection and the response. Which side is referencing the account that was written earliest, is best corroborated, has been best documented over time and is least biased? Over the next few days, I'll be applying this template to two specific objections offered by skeptics on the Unbelievable? radio program. I'll also write about a third objection related to corroboration. We can rely on these four overarching principles to help us determine which position (held by the skeptic or the Christian) is most reasonable. J.
