Scuds (Amphipoda)
Scuds are members of a bottom dwelling class of crustaceans called Malacostraca. This class also includes aquatic sow bugs (Isopoda), crayfish, and shrimps (Decapoda). Although most scuds live in the ocean, over 100 species are found in freshwater.
Scuds range from 5-20mm long. They are most easy to recognize by their comma-like body shape, which is strongly flattened from side to side. Scuds have 2 pairs of antennae and 7 pairs of legs. Like all crustaceans, they have an exoskeleton made of both calcium carbonate (a major material in snail and mussel shells) and chitin (the same material found in human fingernails). Crustaceans reproduce sexually. Newly hatched juveniles look essentially like small adults. Crustaceans grow larger throughout their entire lives, shedding their hard exoskeleton when it is outgrown and generating a new one.
Scuds are omnivores that most commonly eat detritus, although they may also graze on live algae, fungi, and bacteria. They will occasionally attack small living animals, and will eat any recently dead plants and animals they come upon. Scuds live in many habitats of all different sizes, but are most common in the shallows of cool streams, springs, seeps, lakes, and ponds, as well as the backwaters of large rivers. They are usually associated with loose substrate.
As a group scuds can be found in a wide range of pollution levels. Because scuds breathe by absorbing dissolved oxygen through their gills, they can't live in severely polluted or stagnant waters that contain no oxygen close to the sediment. Some species are also highly sensitive to heavy metal and pesticide pollution.

December 19, 2014
TOPEKA -- The American Cancer Society's "Night of Wine and Roses" turned Sweet 16 Friday night, in an elegant evening of wine, food and dance for an audience of more than 250 people. The event at Capitol Plaza Hotel featured the theme, Gala de Carnival.
The large selections of wines offered last night were available for tastings and the topics of wine classes, appealing to the new wine lover and experienced wine enthusiasts.
Wines from South America were the stars of the show, paired up with hors d'oeuvres and a gourmet dinner. People were encouraged to dress in formal and black tie attire. They also enjoyed bidding on items in live and silent auctions, followed by live music and dancing.
The annual "Night of Wine and Roses" benefits local efforts of the American Cancer Society's research, education, advocacy and patients services, including Camp Hope and Patient Transportation. The event also serves to pay tribute to cancer survivors and loved ones lost to the devastating disease.
Last year's event raised more than $56,000 for the society.

Midterm of the fall semester!

DS likes his new U a lot better and feels he's doing pretty well. He was off last week (midterms the week before) - and was supposed to go to Chicago last weekend with his gf (26 solid months, talking permanence, etc.) as her U (his old one) was off Sat-Tues. Well, last Tues she called him and said they were done; they were too different and that was that. It was during her midterms; thankfully his were done already. So it's been fun the last week, but at least he's being realistic and is moving on (including quitting his job as that was a whole other catastrophe). So he spent time at home last weekend regrouping, applying for jobs, etc. I'm just glad his friends have been supportive!

He was valeting and was supposed to get his schedule at least a week ahead of time, and be on weekends only - this boss guy would call and say he needs him that night during the week, in an hour, when it was pouring, etc, and wouldn't take no for an answer. Base pay was $2/hour plus tips, so if you got 2 cars in a couple hours, you might end up with $5-6 for the night total. So he's back to considering lifeguarding at his old U (they still call and need him, but campus parking is $250/semester which is a lot vs. what they pay! And otherwise they have metered parking which is only for a couple hours) or a local Y, or valeting for another place. There was a work study job posted on his U's site that looks ideal; he's put in for it along with the other guarding or valeting jobs, so now he waits. Good luck to Justin, and sorry about his breakup too. As far as the communications goes - ds said he'd much rather talk to her in person because then they can work through things; she just calls or texts and says what she wants and that's that, no negotiating. So I guess it's best...I know that if/when she contacts him again, though, he'll definitely be conflicted... Sue

Hi, I've had a heck of a time signing into this site after being a member for upteen years. Tonight, I can finally sign in. My eldest is in his final year and having a good but busy semester. He is waiting to see if he's been accepted to the school of Natural Medicine. His brother, has an interview in three weeks at the school of Optometry and is having a heck of a time balancing school and his gf. So we button our lips and watch him struggle as he tries to juggle a really hard semester and a demanding gf. Not sure if this is all going to put his dream of Optometry into jeopardy as his gf is demanding getting married and him not going. His big brother is frustrated with him and he also struggles to let his brother learn from his mistakes. Drama going on as we try to let him sink or swim. We are hoping that the maturity of his reasoning part of the brain will kick in soon. *sigh* who said parenting was easy? Treading softly and hoping that it turns out for the best.

Sonoma Orthopedic Products (Sonoma) Announced The Addition Of Three Executives Today
CHICAGO, April 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- "These proven performers were hired to drive our value proposition of revolutionizing fracture healing approaches to deliver a substantially better quality of life for patients than current treatment options," said Rick Epstein, CEO of Sonoma. "As part of our already strong team, they will help fulfill the proposition through strategy, solid clinical evidence and inspired product design."
Victoria Good, PhD, recently joined Sonoma as Director of Clinical Affairs. She will be responsible for orchestrating clinical studies and publication efforts to demonstrate the unique advantages of Sonoma's intramedullary implants. Victoria comes to Sonoma with over 16 years of experience in orthopedics and clinical studies. Additionally, she has authored over 50 medical device publications. Her resume includes work with Smith and Nephew, Covidien, and Carl Zeiss Meditec.
Alex Winber has accepted the position of Vice President of Marketing. He will play a key role in communicating the exceptional benefits that our products and minimally invasive procedures offer fracture patients along with creating patient education programs for surgeon customers. Alex comes to Sonoma from Wright Medical Technology, after 16 years of experience there, where he led the commercialization of several important and successful technologies, ranging from computer-derived surgical navigation to a micro-invasive hip replacement technique.
Kyle Lappin has joined Sonoma as Director of Research and Development. He will lead new product development activities for forthcoming implants and procedures, and he will also be optimizing existing product offerings. Kyle has been a highly regarded orthopedic design engineer for the past ten years who amassed over 20 patents and patent applications at Wright Medical Technology, Biomet, and DePuy. Kyle has spent the past 5 1/2 years working in the Shoulders division at DePuy, where he has become recognized as an expert in shoulder surgery and instrumentation design by his peers and renowned surgeons, worldwide.Kyle, Alex and Victoria are relocating to the new Sonoma headquarters, in the Chicago suburbs. About the Company: Sonoma Orthopedic Products is a private medical device company focused on designing, developing, and marketing unique minimally invasive fracture healing products. Sonoma Orthopedic Products developed the proprietary WaviBody ™ technology that allows intramedullary nails to convert from flexible-to-rigid within the bone. Recent studies and patient surveillance demonstrates that distal radius fragility fracture patients and clavicle fracture patients implanted with Sonoma products recover faster, with less pain, and a higher likelihood of regaining normal function than alternative surgical and non-surgical treatment options. Additionally, clavicle patients implanted with the Sonoma product are 95% less likely to have their device removed due to discomfort, than patients whose fractures are repaired with clavicle plates. Sonoma patients also report a more satisfying cosmetic result than alternative surgical options. The company currently markets the CRx ™ clavicle fracture repair device, the WRx ™ wrist fracture repair device, and the HMRx ™ humerus fracture repair device. Sonoma Orthopedic Products was founded in 2005, and is headquartered in Buffalo Grove, Illinois.

Three Years After the BP Spill and the Gulf Is Still a Mess
A dead Kemp's Ridley sea turtle on the beach in Pass Christian, Mississippi, a week before the third anniversary of the BP oil spill.

Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
Three years after an explosion at British Petroleum's Deepwater Horizon rig in the Gulf of Mexico killed 11 workers, injured dozens, and set off the worst oil spill in the history of the petroleum industry, the waters along Gulf Coast seems almost back to normal. Much of the oil is gone. New Orleans-based photographer Julie Dermansky says there's still a lot left. The oil, she says, is often hard to locate because it has a tendency to play hide and seek.
Dermansky, who photographed the spill in 2010 "pretty much non-stop for four months, has been doggedly following the story for the past three years — reading up all the research she can lay her hands on, making trips out to the worst impacted areas in Louisiana every few months, and talking to people from affected communities. In the early days of the spill the spill she was hired by several major publications, including The Times, London, The Washington Post, and Der Spiegel.
But these days she travels without assignment, covering expenses on her own since few publications hire photographers or reporters to cover what's now an old news story. Last, Dermansky again visited the beaches and marshes along the Louisiana and Mississippi coast — some of the worst hit areas where crews are still cleaning up tar mats and tar balls. I spoke with Dermansky via email and over the phone about her trip and her assessment of the situation in the Gulf Coast.
Maureen Nandini Mitra: What did you find on your recent trip out to Grand Isle, Bay Jimmy in Louisiana, and the Mississippi coast?
Julie Dermansy: There was oil sheen stirred up from the turbulence in the Bay Jimmy PJ Hahn Plaquemines Parish director of coastal zone management, who I accompanied on an oil spotting trip, turned over some of the dead marsh grass and exposed roots covered in hardened oil. There was also hardened oil on top of some of the surface we walked on. With each step on the surface, oil sheen spread around my boots. Much of the vegetation there is now dead. That's tragic as with less vegetation coastal erosion, already a problem before the spill, has intensified. A rainbow oil sheen has moved over parts of the marsh surface. There were signs of life though: small crabs moving around, snails and, raccoon paw prints.
On Grand Isle, at the state park, I found tar balls ranging from the size of a quarter to eight inches long. The beach was not blanketed in them but you could find one every couple of feet.
On the beach in Mississippi, from Waveland to Pass Christian, I found tar balls and dead animals including a Kemp's Ridely turtle. Though finding dead animals on the beach is not uncommon, I find the quantity of dead animals on the shore in Mississippi alarming. How the animals are dying is impossible to say. There is no proof the deaths are BP related as none of the scientific studies done on the dolphins and sea turtles have been released. The results of those studies are controlled by the NRDA [Natural Resources Damage Assessment] and are part the evidence being used in the current civil trial going on against BP in New Orleans.
MNM: You mentioned earlier that this is a difficult story to cover because of the "hide and seek oil plays." Could you elaborate on that?
JD: From the start of covering the spill it was every photojournalists task to find the oil. There would be a sighting one day and if you could get yourself out to those coordinates you very well may have found it gone. Odds are it wouldn't be in the same place. It kept, and keeps, moving with the tides. Last week the tide is higher then usual and there was a south wind, so odds were if you went to Bay Jimmy where the oil had hit the hardest, you wouldn't find anything. When I went on Monday (April 15) with PJ Hahn, he was surprised and saddened we found as much as we did.

On a Friday being called the "day of departure" for Hosni Mubarak by anti-government protesters in Egypt, the U.S. government joined in by pressuring the embattled leader to step aside immediately in favor of a transitional government.
For up-to-the-minute news, check out the Guardian's live blog, or watch Al-Jazeera English's coverage of the protests. —JCL
The New York Times:
The Obama administration is discussing with Egyptian officials a proposal for President Hosni Mubarak to resign immediately and turn over power to a transitional government headed by Vice President Omar Suleiman with the support of the Egyptian military, administration officials and Arab diplomats said Thursday.
Even though Mr. Mubarak has balked, so far, at leaving now, officials from both governments are continuing talks about a plan in which Mr. Suleiman, backed by Lt. Gen. Sami Enan, chief of the Egyptian armed forces, and Field Marshal Mohamed Tantawi, the defense minister, would immediately begin a process of constitutional reform.
The proposal also calls for the transitional government to invite members from a broad range of opposition groups, including the banned Muslim Brotherhood, to begin work to open up the country's electoral system in an effort to bring about free and fair elections in September, the officials said.

Proposed Bangsamoro law in Phl signed
Ghadzali Jaafar, vice chairman for political affairs of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF), said the signing was held at the BTC office in Cotabato City.
"Except for two BTC commissioners, all members signed the document," Jaafar said.
He said they hope the proposed law, which underwent a thorough consultation and study, will get the approval of Philippine Congress.
The unsigned and partial draft copy of the document had been forwarded to the Office of the President for review.
BTC commissioners Johaira Wahab and Fatmawati Salappudin failed to show up during the signing.
Jaafar said the BTC, chaired by MILF chief negotiator Mohaquer Iqbal, will submit the final draft to Malacanang for review and assessment before forwarding it to Congress.
He stressed that no copy has been made public so far until it reaches Congress.

Although distances are lengthy to some destinations, Interstate 70 passes through the city, making travel by car convenient and safe. The Hays Regional Airport offers three commercial flights daily between the city and Denver International Airport. The city of Hays has just completed replacing the main runway, and other airport enhancements are in the planning stages. In cooperation with the U.S. Department of Transportation, city leaders are hopeful that the commercial flights will be converted to jet service in the coming year.
For student needs, Fort Hays State contracts with Tiger Transport to provide free transportation from campus to local retail stores in the community. Late night transportation with Safe Ride also gives students a secure way to return to campus.

Rocky Marciano vs Don Cockell 'Batting Practice'

Rocky Marciano vs Don ****ell 'Batting Practice'
May 16, 1955
Kezar Stadium, San Francisco
In what many of the sportswriters wrote, Rocky will have a turn in
the batting cage, swinging for the fences against an ox-legged fat man.
This will be nothing more than 'batting practive', as the Englishman Don ****ell
will be lobbing in 'meat*****' for the squat Italian Heavyweight Champion to feed upon.
Rocky, now at age 31 1/2, will bring his 5' 11" and 189 lb. body into
the San Francisco Stadium, a long 8-months after his second bout with
the fading-fast and former Heavyweight Champion - Ezzard Charles.
Rocky, at 47-0-0 (41 KO's), will be making his 5th Title Defense, and his
handlers couldn't have hand-picked an easier opponent. Christmas has
come early for the Champion, and he will receive an easy toy to play with,
that has no sharp edges to worry about.
Don ****ell, a pudding-filled Englishman, with a record of 66-11-1 {38 KO's),
should not be that difficult of a Challenger. At 5' 11", ****ell
will be the same height as the Champion, but will have a 4" reach
advantage over Rocky, which may help him for the short-term.
But, his 205 lb. weight (16 lbs. heavier than the Champion) is not of
muscle, but more of soft dough. The 26 1/2 year-old Englishman can
fight a bit, but his strength his ability to take punches, and show courage,
usually not found in European Heavyweights.
Three years earlier (June 1952), Don ****ell was a trim 174 lbs. fighting
as the British Empire Light-Heavyweight Champion. But he was knocked out
by Middleweight Randy Turpin, and chased out of the 175 lb. Division.
Several servings of English Pudding, put Don ****ell into the Heavyweight
Division, where 'girth' over 'muscle' can sometimes help. But, 30 lbs. in
3 years added to the small-framed ****ell, makes him look like a water-logged
sponge in the kitchen sink.
Yer up Rocky, get in the batting cage.

Exciting recipe. I am a sucker for the agrodolce flavor and this did not disappoint me. Easy to prepare and you can really wow someone with the flavorful results. I felt like I was in Sicily. Each bite with the combination of olive, almonds and chicken just made me go yummmmmmmmm!! (I used golden raisins instead of currents - no problem.

The worst hits in football are the ones you don't see coming. This poor Jacksonville Jaguar learned that lesson the hard way after being blindsided by San Diego Chargers special teams player Toruek Williams.
[Image via BroBible]
The NFL has had trouble in recent seasons getting teams to participate in HBO's Hard Knocks series, but it reportedly has the power to force eight teams to take part in the 2014 edition of the show.
According to NFL.com's Around the League's Chris Wesseling, the NFL owners passed a rule in October that gives the league the ability to force certain teams into participating in the Reality TV Show.
The league will still ask for volunteers to do the show. If no team steps forward, the league will then choose from a handful of teams. Every team will be eligible to be selected unless it meets one of three exceptions:
So, which teams are eligible to be selected by the league to do Hard Knocks in 2014? Deadspin's Barry Petchesky, broke down the list of eligible teams:
|Atlanta Falcons
|Baltimore Ravens
|Carolina Panthers
|Cincinnati Bengals
|Playoffs/Previous Appearance
|Cleveland Browns
|New Coach
|Dallas Cowboys
|Previous Appearance
|Denver Broncos
|Detroit Lions
|New Coach
|Green Bay Packers
|Houston Texans
|New Coach/Playoffs
|Indianapolis Colts
|Kansas City Chiefs
|Playoffs/Previous Appearance
|Miami Dolphins
|Previous Appearance
|Minnesota Vikings
|New Coach/Playoffs
|New England Patriots
|New Orleans Saints
|New York Jets
|Previous Appearance
|Philadelphia Eagles
|San Diego Chargers
|San Francisco 49ers
|Seattle Seahawks
|Tampa Bay Buccaneers
|New Coach
|Tennessee Titans
|New Coach
|Washington Redskins
|New Coach/Playoffs
So which team out of the 8 eligible would you like to see in Hard Knocks?
It might be one of the those 'old' sayings, but it is staring to come true in the 2013-14 NFL season. With teams like the Seahawks, 49ers, Panthers, and Chiefs all playing their best football of the year behind 4 of the top 5 defenses in the league. All four teams won convincingly against their opponents in week 15, and with only two weeks left before the postseason, these teams look to be primed for a Super Bowl run.
The Broncos continue to have problems on defense, but with Peyton Manning and the Denver offense putting up 30+ points a game, they still are one of the most dangerous teams in the AFC. The Patriots fall hard this week after losing to Miami, and suffering more injuries. The Cowboys, Lions, Saints and Bengals continue to struggle to find their groove, as the Cardinals, Packers, Bears, and Ravens all took a big step up in this weeks power rankings.
*Remember to WATCH/LISTEN to the SportsCast every Wednesday (12:00-1:30PST) & our NFL GameDay Show (4:30-6:00PST) or ON-DEMAND at anytime.
1. SEATTLE SEAHAWKS (12-2) [Last week +2] – I was worried about their long trip to play the Giants, but the defense ended that concern. That was dominant. After one week in the No. 3 spot, the Seahawks are back where they belong in the power rankings. One more victory and they lock up the top seed.
2. DENVER BRONCOS (11-3) [Last week -1] – They looked lifeless against the Chargers and the defense isn't getting the job done. They aren't close to the unbeatable juggernaut they appeared to be through the first 10 weeks of the year. They will finish with the Raiders and Texans, and should have home field advantage throughout the AFC playoffs.
3. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS (10-4) [Last week +1] – They look like the 49ers from last season. Colin Kaepernick is playing some of his best ball of the year since Michael Crabtree has returned, while the defense is playing like the dominate squad we all thought they would be. The Niners are getting hot at the right time, and with a playoff spot on the line with a win in Week 16, expect Harbaugh's team to come out firing.
4. CAROLINA PANTHERS (10-4) [Last week +2] – They can win the division by winning their last two, and with a home game this week against the Saints they are in the drivers seat. Cam Newton has a 8-1 record over the past nine weeks, and if this team can get past the New Orleans this weekend, they will be very dangerous at home in the first round of the playoffs.
5. KANSAS CITY CHEIFS (11-3) [Last week +2] – Jamaal Charles has been a absolute beast this season, and looks to be one of the front runners for MVP of the league. Andy Reid's offense has taken a step forward the last two weeks and looks to have his team primed for the playoffs. With two wins, and help, they still can win the AFC West.
6. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (10-4) [Last week -4] – How do they lose that way at St. Louis? The Saints' run at the top of the power rankings was short-lived, and now Drew Brees and company face a red-hot Panthers squad looking for revenge. The Saints need to find a way to bounce back this Sunday in Carolina, or they could see themselves on the road for the first round of the playoffs.
7. NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (10-4) [Last week -2] – Can't really blame Tom Brady for struggling in the Pats loss to the Dolphins, he's playing without Gronk, Dobson or Thompkins. They are a playoff team, yes, but not as much of a Super Bowl contender as once thought. The Patriots have two weeks to get back on track, and then it's off to the playoffs, where a first-round bye and a home game likely await them.
8. ARIZONA CARDINALS (9-5) [Last week +3] – To have a playoff chance, they have to win at Seattle and at home against San Francisco. That will be tough. But whatever the final outcome is, Bruce Arians has this team headed in the right direction.
9. CHICAGO BEARS (8-6) [Last week +3] – The Bears sent a message Monday night, as Chicago's offense pounded the Cowboys putting up 45 points without breaking a sweat. Josh McCown is making a case for himself to stay the Bears QB, while Jay Cutler recovers from injury. With games against CLE, PHI, and GB, the Bears will have some work in front of them as they chase the Lions in the NFC North.
10. CINCINNATI BENGALS (9-5) [Last week -2] – A loss to the Steelers really hurts the Bengals, as it leaves the door open for the reigning Super Bowl champs to steal the AFC North. Once again, Andy Dalton proves to a horrible passer, possessing the worst total QBR of any quarterback on a division leader (52.8).
11. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES (8-6) [Last week -2] – Even with the bad loss to the Vikings, Chip Kelly's team still controls its own playoff fate. They will face the Bears and Cowboys to finish the season.
12. INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (9-5) [Last week +2] – The Colts offense woke up against the Texans, but then again who hasn't put up points against Houston. They are still going to host a playoff game at home, but unless Trent Richardson can find some magic, and the defense has a complete turn around, I just don't see this team getting out of the Wild Card round.
13. BALTIMORE RAVENS (8-6) [Last Week +2] – With two weeks to go, the defending Super Bowl champions are the No. 6 seed in the crowded AFC and just one game back from the AFC North-leading Cincinnati Bengals. The defense is playing great, but unless this offense, lead by Joe Flacco, can bust out, I don't see them beating one of the top teams in the playoffs.
14. MIAMI DOLPHINS (8-6) [Last week +2] – Ok, ok, it was a good win against a battered Patriots squad, but once again I'm still not a believer. Ryan Tannehill looked great with three touchdown passes, but why can't he perform like that on a consistent basis? If they win out, they are a playoff team, they will have to beat the Bills and Jets in their final two weeks.
15. GREEN BAY PACKERS (7-6-1) [Last week +3] – With Aaron Rodgers likely to be back in Week 16, the postseason looms for the Packers. The Packers are currently behind the Detroit Lions and Chicago Bears in the NFC North standings. But with a win next week versus Pittsburgh, the Packers would head to Chicago for a Week 17 showdown that could determine the division winner
15. DETROIT LIONS (7-7) [Last week -4] – As has become too common in Detroit, the Lions' inconsistencies cost them. They are fighting for their playoff lives. Two weeks to go, and anything is possible.
16. SAN DIEGO CHARGERS (7-7) [Last week +2] – Their takedown of the Denver Broncos on Thursday night not only gave head coach Mike McCoy his signature win of the year, but it also kept the team's playoff hopes alive for another week. The 2013 season may not end with a playoff berth, but the Chargers are a team to be reckoned with moving forward.
16. DALLAS COWBOYS (7-7) [Last week -5] – That was just embarrassing. Blame Tony Romo, blame Jerry Jones, blame Jason Garrett, the whole team is a joke. Dez Bryant is crying and the defense looks like a pee-wee football team. However, in some miraculous way, the Cowboys control their own playoff destiny by winning their two games against the Redskins and Eagles.
TEAMS NOT WORTH RANKING: Each week I will put a new team in this group, lets hope yours isn't one of them. Once their in, they can't come back out. Jets proving me wrong so far, after an early week 2 entry.
The teams I picked to win this week were mostly wrong and further established the unpredictable ways of the NFL. "Any given Sunday" anything can happen and this week was very indicative of that term. The games I have thoughts on will be similar to last week as the playoff contending games are the only ones I will acknowledge. Football Sundays during this time of the year is the best television show and it fails to disappoint….. My reactions
A game where most thought the Broncos would win by two touchdowns easy didn't go that way. The short turnaround in the week didn't help the Broncos as they looked flat all night. The Chargers established themselves at the line of scrimmage and pretty much took over this game with great ball control offense. Ryan Matthews was a catalyst in keeping Peyton on the sidelines with his 5th +100yds rushing game of the year. By the time the Broncos got rolling offensively there just were not much time left and the Broncos defense could not get off the field on third downs. The Chargers playoff hopes are still alive with this huge road victory.
Jay Cutler was clearly rusty in his first game back, coupled with the fact that he was playing in inclement weather against a feisty Cleveland Browns defense. However, Jay Cutler having arguably the best receiving duo in the league and an opportunistic defense helps immensely in overcoming obstacles. The Bears held onto their playoff hopes with this win.
The Dolphins are one of the hottest teams in the league right now and ran up against a Gronk(less) Patriots team at home at the right time. Ryan Tannehill is growing up for the Dolphins right before our eyes and making big time plays in big time moments to validate being a top 10 pick. Tannehill marched down the field late in the 4th quarter to score a touchdown to take the lead dropping a few dimes on key downs. Tom Brady was spectacular but the Dolphins made a few more plays than he could and ultimately sealed the victory with an interception in the endzone. The Dolphins currently hold the final playoff spot in the AFC and look good to hold onto it.
Nobody saw this meltdown by the Philadelphia Eagles coming based on the fact that the Vikings were without their stud running back Adrien Peterson. The Vikings put up 48 points led by Matt Cassell but it was more surprising to see that the Eagles could not keep up. The NFC East is the worst division in football so the loss isn't too surprising but considering how well the Eagles have been playing this almost comes as a total shock. This game is a prime example of NFL football at its finest when pointing towards predictability.
The Seahawks have virtually nailed down the top seed in the NFC but this needed to be pointed out that the Giants scored ZERO points on their home field. Eli Manning threw 5 interceptions and was yanked from the game. It has gotten that bad and the Giants have hit rock bottom.
It is worth noting that Cam Newton is having a fantastic year and the Panthers look as if they will make the playoffs. This was a much needed season for Cam who has somewhat been the forgotten man amongst the "new age" quarterbacks.
There is only one team who can be up 26-3 at halftime and manage to lose, that team would be the DALLAS COWBOYS. They decided it was a great idea to only run the ball 7 times in the 2nd half and right on cue the defense got trampled and put Tony Romo in hero mode once again and of course it all comes down to the inevitable interception. Teams scoring over 35 in a game this season are a combined 51-2 (guess who represents oner of those two losses). The most disgusting part of this train wreck referred to as the Cowboys is that they STILL have an opportunity to win the division. *Barf*
The Saints don't want to admit their road woes but these types of losses make it hard to ignore. Drew Brees was under duress all day and could not get on track offensively. On the defensive side of the ball they were pushed around and allowed over 140 yards rushing to a team with limited receiving options (so they knew they needed to stop the run). This loss just makes their showdown with the Panthers even more important towards winning their division and getting a home playoff game.
Bruce Arians continues to impress leading these Cardinals, and they should hopefully make the playoffs as it is well deserved. This was a gutsy road win but it took overtime to pull it through. Carson Palmer has been playing well as of late and they have also got some good contribution from running back Rashard Mendenhall who looks more healthy than early in the year. If this team makes the postseason they will be a tough out based on their scrappy defense and ability to score as they have an underrated core of skill players (outside of the stud Larry Fitzgerald).
It was disappointing to see the Bengals look so flat and unable to take advantage of an old and tired Pittsburgh team. The Bengals are too talented to get beat in the fashion they did on Sunday night. The leader of the Bengals which is quarterback Andy Dalton just isn't the guy to lead them to the promise land as he threw errant passes and made bad decisions for the majority of the night. The defense has been ripped apart by injuries but there is still plenty of firepower to get things done but this game is an example of why the Bengals are going nowhere.
This is a game I thought had the makings to be somewhat of a shootout, but then also could be low scoring based on the erratic play of both quarterbacks. The potential of both of these defenses was on full display, but the inconsistencies of both quarterbacks were visible as well. I have referred to the Lions as the "Cowboys of the NFC North" and they didn't disappoint. Matt Stafford threw a couple awful and untimely picks that cost them the game and Calvin Johnson had some inexplicably key drops that killed momentum. The Ravens continue to look primed for a playoff run and the Lions look like they will fall short of expectations once again.
We are gearing up for a great playoff push and I can't to see it all unfold. Coaches and players are playing to keep jobs and the pressure to perform is evident. Thanks for reading you guys and I will see you next week! Happy Holidays!
The Denver Broncos have returned to a place that their very familiar with, being No. 1 in my Power Rankings. Peyton made it a point to prove he can win in cold weather by throttling the Titans and easily covering the 12 point spread. You can read more sports and NFL betting news here. Denver will now have home field advantage throughout the playoffs unless something catastrophic happens. The 49ers are back in the top 5 with a huge win over Seahawks, while the Patriots win but lose a major piece of their offense in the process.
"Who Dat" Nation made a statement with a huge win over the Panthers, and the Chiefs got back on track with a win over the dysfunctional Redskins who are now going to sit RG3 for the rest of the season. The Eagles continue to soar under Nick Foles, and look to be the favorite in the NFC East after Chicago's pounding of Dallas on Monday night. The Colts continue to fall as they clinch the AFC South, even after losing to the Bengals.
As for the Wild Card race, the Dolphins and Ravens still have life in the AFC after big wins in week 14, while the Cowboys, Bears, Packers, Lions and Cardinals will have to win their division if they have any hope of making the playoffs, as none of them will catch the 49ers and Panthers. For Green Bay, the star quarter Aaron Rodgers has experienced pain and his status in the air for this weeks game against Dallas.
As for the shitter, the Tennessee Titans are this weeks stink.
*Remember to WATCH/LISTEN to the SportsCast every Wednesday (12:00-1:30PST) & our NFL GameDay Show (4:30-6:00PST) or ON-DEMAND at anytime.
1. DENVER BRONCOS (11-2) [Last week +1] – Peyton silenced a few critics last Sunday after going on a 44-7 run against the Titans in one of the coldest games of the year in Denver. With three weeks to go, the Broncos are in control of the AFC, and the No. 1 seed looks to be theirs.
2. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (10-3) [Last week +3] – The Saints at home are just plain dominant, going 7-0 this season. Drew Brees lit up the Panthers top ranked defense and while Rob Ryan's defensive unit bounced back to hold Cam Newton to just 13 points. The division title will be in their hands if they beat Carolina in two weeks.
3. SEATTLE SEAHAWKS (11-2) [Last week -2] – Well, it only took one week for the Seahawks to drop from the No.1 spot after throttling the Saints and then losing on the road to the 49ers. The Seahawks were beat at their own game, defense and running the ball. The Niners ran the ball and pressured Russell Wilson all day long. Seattle hasn't secured the No. 1 seed yet, though they would have to lose twice in their final three games for New Orleans or San Francisco to have a shot at taking it from them.
4. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS (9-4) [Last week +2] – The Niners got their revenge in Week 14, beating the Seattle Seahawks and reminding the NFL world that they are who we thought they were. A tough hard nose defense, lead by the running game and Frank Gore. They are likely to be a wild-card team, but will probably be a road favorite against either the NFC North or East winner.
5. NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (10-3) [Last week -2] – Another Tom Brady comeback, another close win for the Pats. However, they lost the best tight end in the game in the process, as Rob Gronkowski is now out for the year. They hold on to the No. 2 seed in the AFC and will probably stay their, but the Patriots are definitely not the same team without Gronk.
6. CAROLINA PANTHERS (9-4) [Last week -2] – Winning in New Orleans is tough to do, but they have a chance to get even next week at home. They are still in control of their own playoff destiny, but must get back on track. Good thing the offense-less Jets role into town this weekend.
7. KANSAS CITY CHEIFS (10-3) [Last week -EVEN] – The Chiefs had a nice bounce back after three straight losses blowing out the Redskins 45-10. They will likely be on the road for the first week of the playoffs, but if they play like they did in Week 14, that won't matter.
8. CINCINNATI BENGALS (9-4) [Last week -EVEN] – The Bengals put a statement win on the board in Week 14, smashing the Indianapolis Colts 42-28 and moving into the No. 3 seed in the AFC. Andy Dalton is playing his best ball of the season, and if this team can continue its dominance on both sides of the ball, they will be dangerous come playoff time.
9. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES (8-5) [Last week +1] – The Eagles lead the NFC East with three games to go in Chip Kelly's first season. Now matter what happens from here on out, the Eagles will not finish with a losing record, and now one expected that.
10. DETROIT LIONS (7-6) [Last week +1] – Ya, I know the Lions lost, but weather was obviously a factor as both teams were affected. The NFC North is still their for the taking, but don't count out the Bears and Josh McCown. With Three games to go, the Lions need to get serious. They host Baltimore and the Giants before traveling to Minnesota to end the year in what could be a make-or-break game.
11. ARIZONA CARDINALS (8-5) [Last week +2] – Bruce Arians has his team building a case for the N0. 6 spot in the NFC playoff picture. Carson Palmer is playing the best we have seen him since his days with the Bengals. Unfortunately for the Red Birds, unless either San Francisco or Carolina stumbles down the stretch, the playoffs might be out of reach.
12. CHICAGO BEARS (7-6) [Last week +3] – The Bears sent a message Monday night, as Chicago's offense pounded the Cowboys putting up 45 points without breaking a sweat. Josh McCown is making a case for himself to stay the Bears QB, while Jay Cutler recovers from injury. With games against CLE, PHI, and GB, the Bears will have some work in front of them as they chase the Lions in the NFC North.
13. DALLAS COWBOYS (7-6) [Last week -3] – That might have been the worst performance I have ever seen out of a defense. I know they are suffering from some crucial injuries, but that embarrassing. They now trail the Eagles by a game in the NFC East, and without Sean Lee possibly for the next couple games, that week 17 home game against Philadelphia will mean nothing.
14. INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (8-5) [Last week -2] – That team that beat the Denver Broncos, Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers no longer exists. The will host a Wild Card playoff game, after clinching the putrid AFC South, but won't be favored. Plain and simple, Andrew Luck needs more talent around him.
15. BALTIMORE RAVENS (7-6) [Last Week -EVEN] – With three games to go, the Ravens control their own destiny. However, a tough schedule to finish the year, with road games in Detroit and Cincinnati around hosting the Patriots.
16. MIAMI DOLPHINS (7-6) [Last week +1] – A win against New England would give the Dolphins the inside track for the wild card. However, I'm still not a believer.
17. SAN DIEGO CHARGERS (6-7) [Last week -1] – The Bolts took care of business against the Giants, and are now looking to catch the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC wild-card race. That will be a tough task, seeing as they have two games against Denver and Kansas City to close out the season.
18. GREEN BAY PACKERS (6-6-1) [Last week -2] – The Cheeseheads are half-game out of the NFC North race and Aaron Rodgers could possibly be back for week 15 against Dallas. Then finish with PIT and CHI, if they can win out, you have to like their chances.
TEAMS NOT WORTH RANKING: Each week I will put a new team in this group, lets hope yours isn't one of them. Once their in, they can't come back out. Jets proving me wrong so far, after an early week 2 entry.
Every NFC teams worst nightmare just became real as the road to the Super Bowl will go through Seattle. In one of the biggest blowouts between two of the best teams in the league, the Seahawks proved why they are a force to be reckin going into the playoffs, as they crushed the Saints on MNF.
As for the AFC, the two teams we all thought would be at the top are, in the Patriots and Broncos. Denver has a one game lead, and unless something drastic happens, look to be the No. 1 seed and secure home field advantage. This could be crucial as Peyton plays much better at home than on the road.
This weeks biggest movers include the Saints down five spots from last week, Baltimore moves up three spots, Jerry's World makes an appearance in the Top 10, while the Colts fall the farthest this week. And don't forget this weeks team to go in the shitter, non other than the Cleveland Browns. Fitting.
*Remember to WATCH/LISTEN to the SportsCast every Wednesday (12:00-1:30PST) & our NFL GameDay Show (4:30-6:00PST) or ON-DEMAND at anytime.
1. SEATTLE SEAHAWKS (11-1) [Last week +1] – The Sea-chickens proved me wrong Monday night throttling the Saints 34-7 and clinch themselves a playoff birth. They are in the drivers seat in the NFC for home field advantage, which we all know is huge for Seattle. However, they must take down the 49ers who are rolling after 2 straight wins this Sunday in San Francisco.
2. DENVER BRONCOS (10-2) [Last week +3] – The Broncos proved in Weeks 11 and 13 that the AFC West still goes through Denver. They look like the No. 1 seed in the AFC and can have home-field advantage throughout if they can take care of business down the stretch. They finish out the season with TEN, SD, HOU, and OAK. Not to shabby.
3. NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (9-3) [Last week +3] – A win, is a win, and thats all that matters for the Patriots who slip past a desperate Texans squad. They have been playing catch in their past three games, but Tom Brady looks to be playing his best ball of the year, and New England has never been healthier. A No. 2 seed in the AFC is almost a guarantee.
4. CAROLINA PANTHERS (9-3) [Last week -EVEN] – After stumbling past the Dolphins last week, Carolina showed some more consistent focus in crushing the life from the Buccaneers. The Panthers' ability has been tested with a difficult schedule so far this season, but they continue to answer their doubters with wins. However, their biggest test is yet to come playing the division leading Saints in a game with huge playoff implications.
5. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (9-3) [Last week -5] – Only scoring 7 points and getting blown out by the Seahawks on MNF will drop you five spots in this weeks rankings. The Saints may have lost, but they still have as much talent as any team in the league. Who Dat Nation is still legitimate Super Bowl contender, but Week 15 will say a lot about just how good they truly are as they face the Panthers.
6. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS (8-4) [Last week -EVEN] – Colin Kaepernick enjoyed getting his favorite receiver back in Michael Crabtree, as the Niners pounded the Rams to keep pace in the NFC playoff race. With Vernon Davis, Anquan Boldin, Frank Gore, and Crabtree all playing at full health, the Niners are back in the Super Bowl contender talk. They will have a chance to prove that this Sunday at home against the Seahawks.
7. KANSAS CITY CHEIFS (9-3) [Last week -EVEN] – So is everyone done drinking the KC cool-aid? The defense, which is the staple of this team, is falling apart. Sean Smith, Marcus Cooper and even Brandon Flowers all got torched last week against the Broncos. They still are a talented team, and no one is taking away from their impressive season, but can this offense compete with the top 5 teams in the league…. I just don't think so. They are likely the No. 5 seed—and they'll be a favorite if they travel to Indianapolis or Cincinnati in the Wild Card Round.
8. CINCINNATI BENGALS (8-4) [Last week -EVEN] – The Bengals haven't been as explosive in recent weeks—or really for the entire month of November—so it was nice to see Andy Dalton and A.J. Green making things happen again. Huge game this weekend against the Colts could decide which team will face the Broncos or Patriots in the first round.
9. DALLAS COWBOYS (7-5) [Last week +2] – The Cowboys are currently the NFC East leaders, but have four tough games remaining in their race for a playoff birth. With the Bears, Packers, Redskins and the Eagles to close out the season, the Boys will need DeMarco Murray, Dez Bryant, and Jason Witten at their best.
10. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES (7-5) [Last week +2] – Nick Foles has provided the spark to get Chip Kelly's bunch peaking at the right time with their most impressive win of the season. LeSean McCoy, Riley Cooper, DeSean Jackson and Zach Ertz have all started to gel together, and that not good for the rest of the league. Not the mention the surprise of the defense the last month, they have really stepped up and made this team a legit playoff team. Big game this week against the Lions.
11. DETROIT LIONS (7-5) [Last week +2] – The Lions defense line man-handled the Packers on Thanksgiving sacking Matt Flynn seven times in route to a huge win and taking over the NFC North lead. Calvin Johnson and Reggie Bush have been amazing this year and continue to dominate on the offensive side of the ball. With four games to play, the Lions control their own playoff destiny.
12. INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (8-4) [Last week -2] – The Colts might have won the game, but they are not impressing me. The offensive line is one of the worst in the league, and since Reggie Wayne's injury the Colts offense, including Andrew Luck, continue to sputter. Big game on the road against Cincy this Sunday, and if Indy falls short, so might their playoff chances as well.
13. ARIZONA CARDINALS (7-5) [Last week -1] – Tough to go into Philly and beat one of the hottest teams in the NFL, but the Cards played tough. Bruce Arians squad doesn't have the star power of a Broncos or Seahawks team, but they play as a unit and continue to impress. With a game at home against the Rams coming up, don't count out the red birds in the NFC Wild Card race.
14. BALTIMORE RAVENS (6-6) [Last Week +3] – The Ravens counted on Justin Ticker's five field goals to get past the Steelers, but this team is still much alive in the AFC Wild Card and possibly the division. However, the road will be a uphill battle, the next four games are no walk in the park (home against Minnesota and New England, on the road against Detroit and Cincinnati).
15. CHICAGO BEARS (6-6) [Last week -1] – Alshon Jeffery has been one of the biggest surprises this year, but even a record-setting performance couldn't help the Bears get past the lowly Vikings. Chicago's defense is no longer the dominate force it once was, and without that security blanket this team does not look playoff ready. They sit one game back in the NFC North, but might have to win out the rest of their game to get into the playoffs.
16. SAN DIEGO CHARGERS (5-7) [Last week -2] – Losing to the Bengals killed any chance of the Bolts making the playoffs. The Mike McCoy experience has been a up and down ride, but they can still end on a positive note finishing the season strong. Chargers going to play spoiler this year.
17. MIAMI DOLPHINS (6-6) [Last week +3] – I said last week that this team is not a playoff contender, and I still believe that, but the Fins are still alive in the AFC Wild Card race. Mike Wallace has started to play like the Mike Wallace we all saw in Pittsburgh. However, the road to the playoffs won't be easy for Miami. In the final four weeks, the Dolphins face the Steelers, Patriots, Bills and Jets.
18. GREEN BAY PACKERS (5-6-1) [Last week -2] – I can't believe I'm saying this but are the Cheeseheads in danger of going into the shitter next week? You know the SportsCast fans are going to love that, especially with all my Packers love at the beginning of the season. But hey, without Aaron Rodgers this team is like the Colts without Manning when he was injured. God awful.
19. TENNESSEE TITANS (5-7) [Last week -1] – The Tennessee Titans' hopes of stealing the AFC South died in Week 13 as they lost to the division-leading Indianapolis Colts. A winning season is still possible, but this team will have a quarterback decision to make at the end of the season.
TEAMS NOT WORTH RANKING: Each week I will put a new team in this group, lets hope yours isn't one of them. Once their in, they can't come back out. Jets proving me wrong so far, after an early week 2 entry.

ADB helps complete Bishkek-Osh Road as key regional link
The Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the Kyrgyz Republic government have signed a financing agreement to implement the reconstruction of a section of the Bishkek-Osh road that will strengthen national and regional connectivity and promote inclusive growth.
Located in the northeast of Central Asia among the peaks and valleys of the Tien Shan mountain range, the Kyrgyz Republic is a multicultural trading center between Europe and Asia. The country has more than 80 ethnic groups, reflecting a rich heritage that links east and west by way of the Silk Road.
Economic Outlook
Highlights from the Asian Development Outlook 2014:
Economic growth jumped to 10.5% in 2013, and the current account deficit narrowed to 10.4% of GDP, reflecting a rebound in gold production. Meanwhile, inflation accelerated to 6.6%. Growth is expected to return to 6.5% in 2014 and 5.5% in 2015, while inflation should average 6%-7%. The major challenge remains enacting governance reforms to improve the investment climate and boost investor confidence. Read more.

What can be used to make a booster ? I have some priming sugar and light DME sitting around. Can this be used ? How much of what would be needed for a 5 gal batch ? Im mostly doing pail ales,IPAs, amber ales.
Why do you want to artificially boost the abv?
I'm curious.
'Tis himself
In the fermenters: nada
In the bottle: nada
In the fridge(and the glass): nada
On Deck: anything i can think of
Sure, you can use either or both. I would recommend using a brewing software (BeerSmith has a free 30 day trial) when you start adding fermentable sugars and other ingredients. It will help you keep tabs on the other variables too, not just ABV. Corn sugar will certainly boost your ABV, but can reduce the body of your beer and can begin producing off flavors if used too heavy (Think < 10% is recommended, but I'd stay below that).
