Hummingbirds might not seem like easy birds to photograph, but they are. All you have to do is learn a few tricks.
I was a teenager when my fascination with photographing birds started. My parents had recently given me a camera, and I began taking pictures of the birds at our feeders. Today, I'm a professional wildlife photographer, and birds still fascinate me.
Hummingbirds and birds of prey are two of my favorite subjects to photograph. I've been a falconer, working with raptors, for several years. Then last year, my wife and I had the opportunity to go to southeast Arizona to see and take pictures of hummingbirds.
Over the years, I've learned a lot of tricks for taking pictures of birds. Here are a few of my best suggestions for getting great hummingbird photos. Just remember, it takes a lot of images to get one great shot. I sometimes shoot more than 200 images a day just to get three or four that are keepers. So be patient, and have fun. Before you know it, you'll find that hummingbirds are easier to photograph than you thought!
Always try to shoot early or late in the day to get the best possible lighting. In addition, if you can position yourself with the sun at your back, the light will illuminate the hummingbird you are trying to photograph. Cloudy days are great for shooting all day, which keeps you from competing with the shadows of the midday sun.
It's not always easy to get close to hummingbirds, but here's a trick that always seems to work for me. I use a pop-up camouflage blind. This allows me to get close to the hummingbirds without spooking them. If you don't have a blind to use, try opening a window and put up a large piece of cardboard. Then cut a hole for your lens.
There's no way getting around it. Using a tripod is a must if you want sharp, clear pictures. Here's a good rule of thumb—once you have your tripod set up, focus on the eye of the hummingbird before you take your picture. If the eye is in focus, then you have a better chance of taking a great photo. You can have the best pose in the world, but if the eye isn't as sharp as a tack, then it's just another picture—not a keeper.
If you have multiple hummingbird feeders in your backyard, you might want to try taking some of them down—except the one you want to photograph. This way, you can concentrate hummingbird activity at one particular feeder.
I like to take the last feeder down the night before and not put it back out until I am ready to photograph the next morning. The birds will definitely notice. You'll find that the hummingbirds are usually buzzing around just after daylight, looking for the missing feeder. Then when you put it up, they'll flock to it!
There is almost always one dominant male hummingbird in your backyard, and he can be very territorial about which birds feed at the feeder. Usually, he will sit somewhere in close proximity to keep watch.
Use this to your advantage. Take a small branch without leaves on it and tie it to your feeder pole or just off to the side, a few feet higher than the feeder. Within minutes, the dominant hummingbird will likely be perching there. Now he will have easy access to the feeder, and you will have a place to focus on to get great photos.

A Jacksonville man was shot in the neck Sunday night during a robbery attempt at a Brentwood apartment complex and then calmly walked inside his unit and asked someone there for help, a police sergeant said.
Sgt. Bobby Lyle said the victim, in his mid-40s, seemed more mad than shocked after the shooting that occurred about 9 p.m. at Hilltop Village Apartments, 1646 W. 45th St. He was taken to Shands Jacksonville hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, despite the bullet passing through his neck, rather than being grazed.
Lyle said the man told officers he was walking to a friend's home when a man and a woman jumped out at him from inside of a Dumpster in the parking lot, at least one with a gun. He then tried to run away but was shot.
Some people in the area heard as many as three shots fired, but with rainy conditions, no eyewitnesses had been located. Lyle said the complex is equipped with an extensive security camera system, and detectives were reviewing the video.

RICHMOND (NEWS1130) – Almost 300 people took part in the Great Shoreline Cleanup today in Richmond.
The environmental event kicked off at Iona Beach just north of YVR.
Jill Dwyer with the Vancouver Aquarium says volunteers picked up over 800 kilograms of trash from the beach.
"They pulled out a really large tire, a smaller tire, lots of metal, also smaller more common things that we find on the shoreline, like cigarette butts, beverage bottles, food wrappers, that kind of thing," she says.
She says the latter items are part of the Dirty Dozen list – items commonly found on the shore, which are mostly associated with recreational activities.
In the past, they've collected everything from wedding dresses to false teeth from the shore.
"Shoreline litter is really one of the biggest problems facing our waterway today, what we want to do is get the litter off of our shorelines before it gets into the waterways and causes problems for the animals and people that live there," Dwyer says.
This year's crowd was the largest to have taken part in the event since it first launched in 1984 in Stanley Park.
It's the third largest environmental cleanup in the world.

Kayla McBride added 24 points and Natalie Achonwa chipped in 14 for the Irish (27-1, 15-0 Big East) who extended their winning streak to 22 games.
Symone Roberts had 22 points for Providence (7-21, 2-13), which has lost six straight and 13 of its last 15 games.
The Irish led by 20 points at halftime and opened the second half on a 10-2 run.
Notre Dame will look to win the regular-season outright Monday at home in a showdown with No. 3 Connecticut. The Huskies can gain a share of the title and the top seed in the conference tournament with a win.

Sea Glass: The Search on the Shore
Part of the sea glass hunting elite, Nancy and Richard LaMotte are finding the treasures they covet harder to come by
- By Abigail Tucker
- Smithsonian.com, October 07, 2008, Subscribe
Nancy LaMotte's eyes are a clear blue-green, the color of antique Coca-Cola bottles, but brighter. She scans the sand at her feet: gritty knots of seaweed, smashed oyster shells, driftwood – wait! There, by that barnacled log! She bends to pluck a perfect turquoise lozenge of sea glass; while she's reaching for it, she also spots an arrowhead. "Oh, look," she coos. Though her smile is modest, the double whammy is a bit much for me, since the only treasure I've spotted so far on this Chesapeake Bay beach is a grimy scrap of plastic.
For what it's worth, LaMotte and her husband, Richard, are among America's sea glass hunting elite; she makes sea glass jewelry in their Chestertown, Md. home, he—vice president of an environmental analysis firm by day—is the author of a seminal sea glass book, and together they run Sea Glass Publishing, which prints a whole product line for beachcombers, from pocket journals to posters. Chances are that neither of them would stoop for a single one of the brown and white shards you found this summer and then forgot about in a fishy-smelling jar in your garage (The LaMottes keep their collection in the garage, too, but in a custom-made cabinet of color-sorted cafeteria trays). No, they hold out for purple, teal, black and—rarest of sea glass shades—orange.
Being a sea glass expert is a serious enterprise. The LaMottes can recite Depression-era tableware patterns, glass-making recipes, and the saltwater pH levels needed to give sea glass its frosted look. And they don't go hunting on any old swimming beach—collectors of their caliber kayak, snorkel, rappel down cliff faces and hike lava floes to reach premium beaches, which they pinpoint by consulting prevailing wind patterns and even the cycles of the moon, to hit the tides exactly right. They also study maritime history to determine which shipping routes and resorts were popular in the late-1800s, when much desirable glass was made. The private beach that Nancy and I searched for an hour, for instance, is south of a bayside amusement park where patrons likely dropped glass into the water from the 1870s to the 1960s.
Yet even with these resources—and remarkably keen eyesight—at their disposal, the LaMottes and their colleagues have noticed an unsettling trend in recent years: "Sea glass is getting harder to find," Richard told me earlier that day in his kitchen, fingering his favorite foggy jewels like a pirate deep in his plunder. Collectors across the country have noticed supplies dwindling along many of the traditionally bountiful coastlines: Northern California, parts of Hawaii, the southern shores of the Great Lakes and the East Coast north of Cape Hatteras. Increasingly, serious collectors are leaving this country to canvass glassier shores.
"People are traveling to Spain and England," says Mary Beth Beuke, president of the North American Sea Glass Association, a coalition of sea glass collectors and artisans. At the group's annual festival, to be held this year on Columbus Day weekend in Lewes, Del., Beuke will be delivering a lecture entitled "To the Ends of the Earth," describing the lengths modern enthusiasts must go to improve their collections. She is in the process of planning her own trip to Greece.
Running out of "mermaids' tears" seems impossible, and a little sad, like running out of seashells. But one man's collectible is another man's trash, in this case quite literally. Sea glass is essentially pretty litter, broken bottles and jars abandoned on the beach or heaved overboard years or decades or even centuries ago, then smoothed by the ocean's movements. The Caribbean is a great place to find shards from case gin and Dutch onion bottles, for instance – they're rubbish from old rumrunners. Several storied sea glass hunting grounds, like Glass Beach in Fort Bragg, Calif., are actually former town dumps.
But attitudes toward oceanfront property, and litter in general, have changed dramatically since the Glass Beach dump closed down in 1967. Americans' newfound reluctance to hurl junk into the sea has limited the supply of fresh glass, and with the advent of mass-market plastic, glass is a much less popular packaging material than it used to be. There have been sweeping efforts to clean up existing beach garbage, even the collectible kind, and restoration projects meant to save eroding coastlines frequently involve importing tons of sand that is typically glass-free. (Though occasionally, it must be said, this works in collectors' favor: A recent beach renewal in Lewes unearthed scads of valuable black bottle pieces from the Severn, a cargo ship wrecked in the 1770s. Guess what sea-glass festival attendees will be doing between lectures?)
Finally, some prime beaches are simply picked over. Extreme sea glass hunting is admittedly a niche hobby (the LaMottes tell of a woman who patrols a particularly fruitful stretch of sand 365 days a year) but pocketing a few choice pieces here and there is a standard summer pursuit for many Americans. Collectors guard their beach locations ever more jealously against the stiffening competition. As glass gets scarcer, prices rise—treasures like the Shard of the Year, chosen at the annual festival, can be worth hundreds of dollars—and with the growing sea glass jewelry trade there's also a market for faux sea glass, pieces that have been mechanically tumbled or chemically treated. These fakes are anathema to diehard beachcombers like Beuke and the LaMottes and other top-level collectors, who formed their association a few years ago in part to "educate" consumers about the virtues of the real thing.
The LaMottes, for their part, try not to let the controversy take the fun out of hunting. There are other types of seaside prizes for the taking–they are particularly proud of the fossilized bison teeth they found not far from where I went looking , not very successfully, with Nancy. Amateurs like me can take heart in the fact that this year's premier hunting days are still ahead of us (Nov. 13th and Dec. 12th, according to the Perigean spring tides) but it's probably true that "the best collectors will always find pieces," as Nancy likes to say. She and Richard have already searched Bermuda and Scotland and will continue to cast a wide net—there are beaches in Italy, and particularly in Venice, home of the Murano glass factories, that they can't wait to explore.
But they won't forsake their native shores. In their garage, alongside their favorites, the LaMottes have buckets full of sea glass pieces that are not quite smooth or rounded enough to be worthy of display, but which could be quite lovely after a few more years in the water.
They're thinking about going down to the beach and throwing them back.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE scoping out for glass at the beach - it's a bit of a religion if you will! I've made so many pieces of jewelry from them over the years it's a pleasure to see others wear a piece of the sea on them. I've collected many colors: purple, blue, green of course white/brown but that's about it and that's good enough for me! It's therapy that I enjoy. Thanks!

Growing up in Eastern NC and vacationing along our coast, I have always been a sea glass enthusiastist. Besides finds along our NC coast, I have also retrieved sea glass on visits to Hawaii and Italy. I view the process of searching for sea glass as treasure hunting. My treaure hunting passion extends to searching for artifacts like arrowheads, old coins and bottles. Enjoyed reading the above accounts from kindred spirits. Happy treasure hunting :)
Wanted to also share the link to my blog "Close to the Land" which features a photo of one of my prized arrowheads ...

Just back from a vacation in Barbados. Not only did I find a few nice jewelry quality pieces, four are 'black' glass from really old bottles.
I went sailing with a friend and he let me seed the ocean about a mile off the beach with a bucket of glass shards.
Hope some collector will find the smooth pieces 50 years from now when they wash up on the shore.

I found a piece of "Vaseline" uranium glass today. I love looking for sea glass and making it into fine silver jewelry. My name is Shannon Down By The Sea if anyone is interested.

My grandson found a piece of ses glass on Long Beach Island.
It is clear white with the letters W M D clearly visible.
Can you identify the bottle or maker?
Posted by phyllisbuziak on June 30,2011 | 09:18 PM
Perhaps one of the reasons that sea glass is becoming rare, or harder to find, could be that people have 'bucketsful' of sea glass that should have been left to tumble naturally in the waves and sand for a few more years. Many photos I've seen of sea glass, still shows jagged edges or big chips. If only it had been put back instead of removed from the beach, then ...

Hi everyone.My daughter has a 1976 sea glass coke bottle.It is clear but very beautiful.Does it have any value? There are no chips whatsoever.Email me email@example.com you.

I have a free form sea glass tree on three panels 42"x22" each. Ply wood has been cut so that the tree is viewed from both sides, allowing ligt to flow through. I do not know the artist nor the value of this beautiful work of art. Would appreciate any input.

It is so exciting to read stories from your sea glass collectors. I started picking up the glass about 10 years ago, but didn't realize exactly what I had. I marveled at the soft edges, crooks and crannies of broken bottle pieces. Somehow, even at that time, it became my secret treasure. I had displayed it among my lovely shells in various placed throughout my home throughout the years, sometimes just stopping by to hold a piece or two. Today, I am sea glass crazy. A long as I find a piece here and there along our NC coasts, I won't leave the seashore till darkness forces me in. You get it in your blood and no matter where you are, you become a radar for beautiful glass. I'd love to venture to some more secluded areas. Wanna share your secret places with me? That's okay, I'd probably be reluctant to do so as well. Gotta love those after storm effects when the ocean gets all churned and angry. God bless you ocean..bring it on...your beach nuts are waiting. Thanks to those of you who make this site possible. Love Ya for it..Norma in NC

Beachcombing on the Silver Coast of France is my favorite pastime. Some days I find a bit. Other days I feel as though I'm walking through the Sahara. Brown glass is an unusual find here as opposed to America. My favorite is the teal glass.
The French don't even have a word for "sea glass".
Going out again in the morning.
Wishing I had an ultralight :)

I can't imagine being at the lake and not hunting for beach glass/stones. I have been doing it since I was little with my Dad who suddenly passed away two years ago today. I still feel he is with when I am there. I live close to Erieau On. and I get excited about what I will find everytime I go. It is nice to see comments from others like myself.

Idiscuss personal relationships in my presentations and in my life coaching practice. About a month ago, a client called me feeling elated. She said, "Scott, I am so excited. I just broke upwith my boyfriend and I'm moving on!"I suggested that we schedule asession to make sure she had resolvedher relationship issues.
"Thanks, Scott, but that's not necessary. It's over." she said.
Two weeks later, she started datinganother man and, two weeks after that,she called me again. "Scott, what'sgoing on? This guy was totally differ-ent than my ex-boyfriend, but the sameold crap is happening!"My diagnosis: She did not resolvethe issues from the last relationship.Even if the other person was responsiblefor 90 percent of the problem, she didnot resolve her own 10 percent. Thishappens all too frequently in our profes-sional and our personal lives.
The first lesson in overcoming adversity in business is to feel your feelings. Whether you lost a client or didn't book a speaking gig, emotions are attached to these setbacks. You must allow yourself to feel those feelings. Go outside and scream at the sky, punch a punching bag, talk to someone who will act as your sounding board (and not give you any advice), or express your feelings on paper. By feeling your feelings, you release natural energies and free yourself to move into a more focused state.
The second lesson is to own your chal-lenges. Often, we want to play theblame game when obstacles arise. "Ifit weren't for this person, I would have…" or "So-and-so is responsible for menot getting …"This sounds like the client who blamedher boyfriends for relationship problems.You must take responsibility for your role ineverything, knowing full well that it is notjust you, but that you also have absolutelyno control over other people. That is toughfor some people to swallow because we sodesperately want to play that blame gameand try to change other people. We canonly change ourselves.
take away a powerful message and a transformational lesson from that experience. Sometimes that message is readily available and, once processed and digested, you can move on. However, there are times when the lesson will come later. Wait for it because it's there. When you uncover it, your life will change.
There Is No Failure—Only Feedback! The third lesson is that whatever challenge or obstacle you face, you can

I am a man of Rome, Italy. Some of my ancestors, many centuries ago, were already citizens of Rome. So I guess I am a real Roman, or sort of, since some barbaric blood must unquestionably flow in my veins, probably Germanic and Gallic from the Alpine region.
My mother tongue is Italian, not very different from the Latin spoken by the common people at the times of the late Roman Empire. The reason I am attempting to communicate in this nordic language – which I do not totally master and which, though a bit chilly to my heart, I find not entirely deprived of charm – is that variety excites me like a drug and I am tired of talking to my fellow people mainly, this lingua franca, English, allowing me hopefully a wider exchange of ideas.
Why this blog
One reason for this blog, I have said, is wider communication. But what can a Roman of today say to the world? Such a big statement if there weren't the Web to make it not entirely such.
I have always thought that it is a great privilege to be born and be raised here, such a special place, to the extent that something must have penetrated, something peculiar and worthy of being transmitted, in order to be able, in our turn, to receive.
I hope for comments from Western and non-Western people, since Rome and the Romans have a mediation nature that comes from the Mediterranean.
Rome in some way is more Mediterranean than European. However, as she was already universal during the ancient Roman days, she continues to be universal as a religious centre, like Mecca or Jerusalem, which makes her something far beyond Europe (*).
Religion will not though be a central topic here, since I greatly respect all faiths but I do not personally have any, being an agnostic. I like to think I am similar to those Romans of the past who counted mostly on human knowledge and reason (for example the followers of Greek Epicure.)
Three Reasons for Uniqueness
Ages have passed since this great city was the capital of the known world, this role now being played by New York, or London perhaps.
Rome is though unique in the first place because "among all the greatest cities of the ancient world – Nineveh, Babylon, Alexandria, Tyre, Athens, Carthage, Antiochia – she is the only one that has continued to exist without any interruption, never reduced to a semi-abandoned village but rather finding herself often in the middle of world events and, equally often, paying for that a price (**)."
Secondly, and even more importantly, Rome is the city of the soul (as Byron and Victor Hugo put it,) of our authentic Western soul, since Europe and the West were shaped here and these roots are sacred – to me surely, and I think and hope to most of us.
These roots we have to rediscover in order to better open up to others in a new spirit of humanitas and conciliation (two chief components of the everlasting Roman mind). We all here in the West must encourage a totally new attitude which can enable us to better face both our present crisis of values and the radical changes ahead which might cause our swift decline.
Lastly Rome, the eternal city, is unique because she is also one of the most beautiful cities in the world, if not the most beautiful. Beyond its imperial testimonies, even small piazzas and alleys radiate a sacred aura which comes from the millennia and to which the multitudes of the world, in an ever increasing number, come to pay their tribute.
The capital of our beloved and civilised French cousins, Lutetia Parisiorum (it's how the Romans called Paris, after the Parisii, a tribe of the Gallic Senones,) was not but a village until the year 1000 AD. "1700 years younger than Rome: it shows, one can feel it (***)."
Fragments Sent in a Bottle
Scattered fragments of this special identity inserted in a bottle and sent across the WWW: this shall be the activity of our blog.
The conveyor of the message is not so important in relation to the greatness of the source and to one ingredient this conveyor might, willingly or unwillingly, possess: he perhaps being like a living fossil from a distant past which is dead though – astoundingly enough – alive yet in so many Italians.
Let us admit it. In some central and especially southern areas of this country, minds and habits survive that puzzle lots of foreigners, historical remnants whose disadvantages towards modernity seem evident. Are they only disadvantages?
All Things Considered
This and other things will be discussed here by an almost 60 years old Roman whose knowledge can be located at a medium level, with interfaces towards the upper and the lower layers.
He will try his best to transmit something useful to others having been an ancient-history & literature educator for 16 years, then converted to computer networking engineering and training for the last 14 years. He hopes this blog will allow him to brush up humanities back, which is daunting at his age, not to mention the crazy idea of blogging in a foreign language.
If not profundity of knowledge, he might though have an advantage (still to be proved) over many foreign commentators even if born in one of the many ex-provinces of the ancient Roman Empire.
The plus of being a witness from right here. The advantage of being a Man of Roma.

Taxes at death
Taxes at death
When a South Carolina resident dies, the estate may have taxes deducted from its value before distribution to beneficiaries. These may include federal estate taxes, South Carolina estate taxes, death taxes in other states or nations, and federal and state income taxes. The size of the estate or the amount of income usually determines what taxes must be paid.
The filing requirements for the federal estate tax return are based on the total estate value for federal tax purposes. This is called the "gross estate". The gross estate is total assets located in South Carolina and elsewhere. A value of more than $600,000.00, then a federal estate tax return must be filed. Both the federal and South Carolina returns are due nine months after date of death. Even when a federal estate tax return will be required, no federal estate tax or South Carolina estate tax is imposed on property passing to a surviving spouse. An estate tax return does have to be filed in South Carolina if the estate is larger than $320,000 South Carolina estate taxes would have to be paid on all assets over $320,000 if none of them passed to the surviving spouse.
In addition, other states or other nations may have a legal right to impose a tax equal to their proportionate share of the state death tax credit allowed by the federal government.
Finally, income taxes also must be paid. The executor or administrator of the estate must file the decedent's final income tax returns with federal and state authorities and pay the taxes due. If the property in the estate continues to produce income, for example, from bank accounts or stocks, in excess of $600 per year, the executor or administrator of the estate may have to file additional returns for the estate on that continuing income. All income earned, whether by an individual before death or his estate after death, is reportable on the appropriate federal or state income tax return.
Failure by the Personal Representative of an estate to pay the proper income or estate taxes can result in the personal rep having to pay the money out of their own pocket.
It is thus quite important to get proper advice of what taxes may be due and when they are due.
This information was prepared to give you some general information on the law. It is not intended as legal advice about any particular problem. If you have questions about the law you should consult a lawyer. If you do not know a lawyer, you can call the South Carolina Bar Lawyer Referral Service weekdays between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. The number is 799-7100 in Richland or Lexington Counties, and 1-800-868-2284 from other parts of the state.

Critical Essays
Despite the relative brevity of hercanon, Fanny Burney cannot be dismissed as a novelist with the usual generalizations from literary history—specifically, that the author shared the interests of her youthful heroines in good manners. She possessed a quick sense for the comic in character and situation, and those talents distinctly advanced the art of the English novel in the direction of Jane Austen. From one viewpoint, Burney indeed exists as an important transitional figure between the satiric allegories of the earlier eighteenth century and the instruments that portrayed middle-class manners in full flourish during the first quarter of the nineteenth century.
Burney's contemporaries understood both her method and her purpose. Samuel Johnson thought her a "real wonder," one worth being singled out for her honest sense of modesty and her ability to apply it to fiction, while Edmund Burke seemed amazed by her knowledge of human nature. Three years after her death, Thomas Babington Macaulay proclaimed that the author of Evelina and Cecilia had done for the English novel what Jeremy Collier, at the end of the seventeenth century, did for the drama: She maintained rigid morality and virgin delicacy. Macaulay proclaimed that Burney had indeed vindicated the right of woman "to an equal share in a fair and noble promise of letters" and had accomplished her task in clear, natural, and lively "woman's English."

After Further Review |
Written by Gary Ramey | |
Thursday, 18 October 2012 | |
· Is it too late to ask for the replacement refs back? · If yes, can we at least ask the league that Steeleratore never officiate a Miami Game again? · Every single major call, just like the Steeler Game a few years ago, went against Miami. · The catch, football move and subsequent fumble…that was an easier call than the dual possession of the Packer Game. · Tuck Rule….can the league just end it? How many games is this asinine rule going to impact before someone does the right thing. There. It is off my chest. Had I watched that game in real time, I would've popped an artery. These are the kinds of games Miami always loses…always. It has been a stigma of Miami Teams since I remember. Thanks to an opportunistic defense and a young gun QB, things are changing in Miami. The Technical: First 3 games were characterized by a great rushing attack, a great run defense, but no pass rush. On offense the team was giving away the football and on defense there were no takeaways. The last 3 games have been marked by no running game, an increasingly worse run defense but a young QB who is throwing darts. I might be mistaken but that TD pass to Fasano was so accurate it blew my mind. Fasano turns, gets his hands up and head around just in time to see the ball hit him between the hands. You couldn't have handed it to him in a better place. The defense is more bend, not break and is getting its hands on the football along with sacking the QB. Things to be fixed: I saw it last week and I saw it again this week at least once. Bush had a small crease inside but he chose to bounce it outside. Both runs were negative plays. On one 3rd and short he easily had the first down if he follows his big fullback. I think Reggie is pressing instead of taking what the defense is giving him. In fairness to Bush the defenses are flooding the box. The Rams had a brilliant plan of sending lots of people. They singled up the outside guys and then brought the house. RT couldn't exploit them deep because there was always one more blitzer than blockers. Miami fixed this to open the 2nd half by running some quick hitting passes. RT was 7 for 8 on that drive and marched it right down the field. Sprinkled into those quick hitting passes were some well timed screen plays to Bush. Miami will see a steady diet of the blitz against the Jets. Run defense wasn't good against the Rams. The good news is it was mostly poor tackling, or good hard running if you want to put it another way. Sean Smith remains a liability against the run. He simply refuses to throw his body into the mix. He tries to arm tackle guys, he takes poor angles and generally approaches tackling like he's trying to pet a porcupine. Most teams with poor CB's have them run with WRs. It appears to the QB they are covered but a DB's backside should be an invitation to throw into one on one coverage. Miami has to take some shots downfield against the blitz instead of relying only on the short throws. The defense is purposely shifting resources to cover the short passes and giving you the deep throw. They have to let Hartline take his chances on those. The Future: The immediate future is @Jets, @Indianapolis, Titans, @Buffalo, Seattle. If Miami is going to have a shot at the post season which has been the water cooler chat the last week, then winning 4 out of 5 of these will be necessary. It is doable, but nothing is easy in the NFL. Catch a team on the right day and any one of them can throttle you. The Miami Team we saw last week can do that. The next games aren't so easy. Miami has NE at home followed by @SF. If they go 3-2 in the five above, they'll need to win one of these games to get to the post season. That will put them 4-3 or 7-6 at the 14 game point. The last 3 games are Jags, Bills and @NE. Miami would need to go 2-1 in these games. This would put them at 9-7 for the year. The best case scenario is for Miami to go 4-1 in the first 5 games after the break, split with NE and sweep Buffalo. It also means beating these teams they should beat. That would leave them at 10-6 and pretty much certain of a wildcard spot. In any case, it is nice to be in the discussion of playoffs with complete changes in coaching and a rookie QB. Miami's future is looking brighter with every snap. Go RT! GD2 |

Founded in 1983, the Shannon Rodgers and Jerry Silverman School of Fashion Design and Merchandising has received widespread support from the fashion industry, corporations and the public. Kent State initiated baccalaureate studies in fashion merchandising in 1971 and in fashion design in 1982.
The school offers four-year baccalaureate programs leading to Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees. The curricula combine professional preparation in fashion design and merchandising with a foundation in the liberal arts and business. Course offerings are regularly supplemented by lectures and seminars, visiting fashion professionals, study tours throughout the United States and abroad and internships in the fashion industry.
Students are encouraged to participate in school governance and develop leadership skills through involvement in student organizations.
Admission to the Fashion Merchandising Program
Admission to the major is selective. Freshman applicants must have a minimum high school GPA of 2.75 in a college preparatory curriculum and a composite ACT score of no less than 21 or SAT combined score of no less than 980. Students with a 3.0 or higher GPA whose ACT or combined SAT score does not meet the minimum may be considered for admission.
Postundergraduate students or transfer students with a cumulative GPA of 2.50 based on 24 or more semester hours from an accredited institution may be considered for admittance to the program. Transfer students meeting the GPA requirements with less than 24 semester hours will be evaluated as new freshmen. Transfer and postundergraduate students should contact the school office once they receive a credit evaluation from the Admissions Office.
Those applying to fashion merchandising and fashion design who do not have the appropriate academic credentials or fashion design applicants who have not yet had their skills assessment evaluated are admitted to the Fashion Design and Merchandising Preparatory category (PFDM) and may remain in that category for two semesters.
Students currently enrolled at Kent State University may be considered for change of major. Approval is based on a minimum of 12 credit hours completed with a 2.50 cumulative GPA excluding developmental courses. Students should schedule an appointment with the school before applying. Freshmen and transfer students who do not meet minimum requirements for admission to the school may be admitted to the fashion preparatory category (PFDM) and should remain in that category for no more than two semesters.
Admission to the Fashion Design Program
All students wishing to be admitted to fashion design must submit a skills assessment, described on the school Web site (www.fashionschool.kent.edu).
Minimum Requirements:
Incoming freshmen minimum criteria for acceptance:
Transfer students minimum criteria for acceptance:
Admissions Procedure:
The school admits students on a rolling basis corresponding with the University's Admission calendar. Concurrently with the submission of the application for admission to the University, students interested in the fashion design major should submit the skills assessment as indicated in the instructions accompanying the assignment (see the school Web site www.fashionschool.kent.edu). Do not send any information other than what is required in the skills assessment. To keep the review process fair, letters of recommendation or additional artwork submitted will not be considered as a basis for admission to the fashion design program.
Based upon academic criteria and skills assessment evaluation, 90 students are selected for admission to the program in the fall semester.
Selection of a Concentration
Combined Baccalaureate/Master's program
Fashion merchandising majors who qualify may enroll in the combined Bachelor of Science in Fashion Merchandising/Master's of Business Administration program and complete both degrees within five years. Careful planning and advising are needed in order to successfully complete the programs in a timely way. Students should work closely with their faculty advisor if they intend to follow this plan.
In the freshman year, the math choice should be MATH 11012 or MATH 12002. When the student has achieved 90 hours or more in the merchandising program (beginning of the junior year) and has a GPA of 3.30 or higher, he or she should apply for conditional admission to the M.B.A. program. This application must occur no later than April 1 of the junior year. The GMAT exam must be completed with an appropriately high score at the time application is made. Students accepted into the program may use 12 hours chosen from the following courses to meet both support core requirements in their undergraduate program and program requirements within the M.B.A.:
BAD 63037 Financial Accounting (in lieu of ACCT 23020)
BAD 63038 Accounting for Managerial Action and Evaluation
BAD 64042 Management Information Systems
Two of the following (the one not taken will be taken later):
• BAD 66061 Financial Management I
• BAD 64271 Human Resource Management
• BAD 64005 Statistics for Management
The international elective required in the M.B.A. program may be waived if the FDM student has participated in the Hong Kong or Florence fashion experiences. The M.B.A. internship may be waived if the FDM student has done a business-related fashion internship. Thirty-three hours of M.B.A. coursework is required after the completion of the undergraduate degree in fashion merchandising.
