"It's completely unacceptable that Daryl has once again put us in this position," Cards general manager Steve Keim said in a statement. "We all know what the consequences are and will deal with them. From a personal standpoint, our hope is that this suspension will give Daryl the opportunity to accept the necessary help and guidance to get his life back on track and we will certainly support him however we can."
Washington had 134 total tackles and nine sacks in 2012 and 75 total hits and three sacks in 12 games last season.
He'll be sentenced April 23.
Housler has a groin injury, but practiced in full Thursday and Friday. Dockett is dealing with a shoulder issue.
The Cardinals face the Rams in Week 14.
Shaughnessy and Abraham were dealing with injuries throughout the week. Washington was listed with an illness. Massie was listed on the injury report, but it was not injury related.
Wide receiver Brittan Golden (hamstring) is out while tight end Rob Housler (groin), defensive end Frostee Rucker (calf) and tackle Bradley Sowell (illness) are questionable.
Safety Yeremiah Bell intercepted Colin Kaepernick at the goal lline, and linebacker Daryl Washington recovered a Kaepernick fumble. Defensive tackle Darnell Dockett had a sack. Defensive end Calais Campbell and linebacker Karlos Dansby combined for a sack.
The Cardinals DST probably will be without Campbell when it plays Seattle on Thursday. Campbell was taken off the field on a stretcher in Week 6.
Among the probables are: linebackers John Abraham (shoulder), Jasper Brinkley (groin), Kevin Minter (hamstring), and Daryl Washington (knee); defensive linemen Darnell Dockett (groin) and Ronald Talley (wrist); and defensive back Rashad Johnson (finger).
"That one's easy," Arians said, per the team's official website.
The Cardinals rewarded Washington's breakout 2011 season with a four-year, $32.03 million contract extension right before the start of the 2012 regular season. Washington followed up his breakout year with a 2012 season in which he was named second-team All-Pro and led NFL inside linebackers with nine sacks.
The 2010 second-round pick has been suspended for Arizona's first four games for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy. Washington could miss additional games for a personal conduct policy involving a domestic violence incident.
The Cardinals signed Karlos Dansby as insurance after learning of Washington's status. Coach Bruce Arians has indicated Washington could be skating on thin ice because of his conduct.
Washington has a $10 million option bonus payable on the first day of the 2014 league year (March 11). If the Cardinals aren't comfortable that Washington has learned from his mistakes, they could decide he is more trouble than he is worth before the payment is due.
Should that case reach a conclusion before the start of the 2013 season, Washington could face discipline from the league under the Personal Conduct Policy and that might extend his early season absence beyond the four-game suspension Washington will serve for violating the league's substance-abuse policy.
"Well, it's all up to him. He's had double incidents and, as an organization, that throws a red flag up," Arians said on SiriusXM NFL Radio. "But I think Daryl is a very bright young man who understands the mistakes he's made, and he's walking a very thin line in the league right now. Super talented, but you have to adhere to the rules."

Hurricanes boss Mark Hammett has made two changes to his side for Friday's clash with the Brumbies in Wellington.
Amongst the forwards, Adam Hill comes into the run-on side on the blindside flank for Faifili Levave who has been ruled out through injury while, in the back-line, James Marshall replaces Marty Banks at full-back.
Hammett and his charges are excited to play their first home match of the season after they suffered two defeats - to the Sharks and Stormers - on their recent tour to South Africa.
There will also be a special post-match presentation at this weekend's fixture to mark Ben Franks' 100th Super Rugby game which he achieved against the Stormers last weekend.
Andrew Smith will start at inside centre for the Brumbies, replacing Wallaby midfielder Pat McCabe who will start on the replacements bench.
In other changes, Jarrad Butler shifts from number eight to openside flanker as a replacement for the injured David Pocock, while captain Ben Mowen moves to number eight and Scott Fardy from lock to blindside flanker.
Fardy's switch means Leon Power will partner Sam Carter in the second row in his first start since the Brumbies clash against the Rebels in Canberra last year.
Jordan Smiler, JP Smith and Josh Mann-Rea come onto the bench for Power, Ruaidhri Murphy and Siliva Siliva. Aside from McCabe the replacement list of Ruan Smith, Lachlan McCaffrey, Conrad Hoffmann and Lionel Cronje remains the same as last week's match in Perth.
Hurricanes: 15 James Marshall, 14 Cory Jane, 13 Conrad Smith (c), 12 Hadleigh Parkes, 11 Julian Savea, 10 Beauden Barrett, 9 TJ Perenara, 8 Blade Thomson, 7 Jack Lam, 6 Adam Hill, 5 Mark Reddish, 4 Jeremy Thrush, 3 John Schwalger, 2 Dane Coles, 1 Ben Franks.
Replacements: 16 Motu Matu'u, 17 Chris Eves, 18 Jeffery Toomaga-Allen, 19 James Broadhurst, 20 Ardie Savea, 21 Chris Smylie, 22 Alapati Leiua, 23 Marty Banks.
Brumbies: 15 Jesse Mogg, 14 Henry Speight, 13 Tevita Kuridrani, 12 Pat McCabe, 11 Robbie Coleman, 10 Matt Toomua, 9 Nic White, 8 Jarrad Butler, 7 David Pocock, 6 Ben Mowen, 5 Sam Carter, 4 Scott Fardy, 3 Ben Alexander, 2 Stephen Moore, 1 Scott Sio.
Replacements: 16 Siliva Siliva, 17 Ruaidhri Murphy, 18 Ruan Smith, 19 Leon Power, 20 Lachlan McCaffrey, 21 Conrad Hoffmann, 22 Andrew Smith, 23 Lionel Cronje.

150 Years Of The New Hampshire Union Leader
By Laura Knoy
Started as the Manchester Daily Union, the Union Leader grew to be the state's largest newspaper. Over the past century and a half it has had its challenges- from criticism by some for its conservative slant, to facing the financial struggles of many mid-sized papers. We're taking a look at the legacy of the Union Leader.
- Joe McQuaid: president and publisher of the Union Leader and New Hampshire Sunday News
- Charlie Perkins: editor at the Union Leader for almost 30 years and currently managing partner of North Village Media, which does consulting, public relations, and editorial services. Perkins is about to publish a book called New Hampshire: 150 Years.
- Michael Dupre: professor of sociology emeritus at St. Anselm, senior research fellow at NH Institute of Politics and Political Library, specializing in NH politics and political culture.
- Guy MacMillin: longtime editorial page writer for the Keene Sentinel, now retired.

Apple's top technical feats of the decade
We're well into 2010 (OK, 4 days), but there's still a few more lists and "top tens" of the last decade to clean up. One of the more interesting Apple-related wrapups is this list by Fraser Spiers, showing off Apple's best technical feats of the past decade. There's certainly tons of technical innovations by Apple in "the naughties" to choose from -- it was the decade of the iPod and the iPhone. But Spiers' list actually avoids direct mention of either of those, instead choosing to highlight some more Mac-based technical feats. Bonjour is in there, as is the great Time Machine and Snow Leopard's Grand Central Dispatch system. Webkit is probably an obvious choice, given all the places it's shown up in Apple's various releases.
And there are some more interesting picks on the list as well, including Aperture, the underrated Exposé, and even the unibody laptop design. Some might argue that a few of these aren't necessarily Apple's innovations (I wouldn't necessarily credit them with DVD burning and encoding in the 2000s), but it's true that all of these were brought into a widespread, acclaimed form by Apple. If nothing else, a list like this shows just how much Apple has done for personal computing in the last ten years -- we tend to think first, these days, of their handheld accomplishments, but they've had plenty of other technical feats as well.

PLAINS TWP. - In keeping with tradition, James Clancy attended the Greater Pittston Friendly Sons of St. Patrick banquet Sunday night with his father and son.
Clancy, a major with Pennsylvania National Guard, wanted his 9-year-old son, Jack, and father, James Sr., to be part of the celebration.
Being president of the organization also played a part. He wrapped up his year in office at the Friendly Sons' 99th annual banquet at the Woodlands Inn & Resort with approximately 375 guests in attendance, many of them family members and a lot of them friends.
"The tradition of Friendly Sons is a father-son banquet," Clancy said.
He first attended in 2007 with Andy Ashby, a former major league baseball pitcher. Like Ashby, Clancy did not grow up in Northeastern Pennsylvania. He grew up in Secaucus, N.J. And like Ashby, who was honored at the banquet with the Swingle Award for community service, Clancy called the Greater Pittston area home.
Ashby, who pitched in the big leagues for 14 seasons with five teams including the Philadelphia Phillies, said he was fortunate enough to be able to give back to the community through baseball clinics and speaking at schools. He also has visited with service men and women in the United States and abroad.
"I love the area," said Ashby, a native of Kansas City, Mo.
The principal speaker at the banquet, Pennsylvania State Police Commissioner Frank Noonan, moved to Clarks Summit from Morrisville in the 1980s while he was an FBI agent.
"The thing that means the most to me is that I'm from this area," Noonan said. "I know so many people here, and they're all friends. So being asked to come back to be the principal speaker is a real joy."
He planned to talk about family, tradition and sacrifice. His ancestors immigrated to the United States from County Cork in Ireland.
"There's no place else where people had the chance to come over here with nothing and to have their next generation and the next generation keep improving," Noonan said.
The Friendly Sons' "Man of the Year," Mark Casper, was initially reluctant to accept the award.
"My two sons implored my to take this," said Casper, of Exeter.
He's coached youth basketball for nearly three decades and notched 500 wins at the former St. Mary's Assumption School in Pittston and Wyoming Area Catholic School.
"I did it as a favor 28 years ago," Casper said. One of his players was Jarrett J. Ferentino, a Luzerne County assistant district attorney, the toastmaster of the banquet.

Is Paradigm Buying UTA?
There's a rumor floating around that Paradigm, thanks to Sam Gores and his brothers, is going to buy UTA. UTA's been hemorrhaging agents and others lately (like Nick Stevens and Ben Stiller), according to Nikki Finke, and her commenters are mentioning Paradigm, as well. (Of course, one poster points out that Paradigm can barely pay the electric bill.)
Remember when Paradigm bought Writers & Artists Agency?
Of course, the most important question is what will happen to the much-coveted UTA job list?

The unthinkable has happened. For many years, I have been down on gyms. It's not that I really hate them, but I've felt that they're not really necessary. Working out in the outdoors is so much more rewarding for me personally. I've been known to laugh at all the sad gym monkeys inside the condensation-covered windows staring at their screens while they "push" themselves. Meanwhile, I'm doing deadlifts with my 45 lb. bar and plates out in my driveway, then going for a trail run by the Yellow River. Is there really any other way to do this? Well, not for me!
So what made me join a gym today? This ding-dang-arang foot injury that has squashed my outdoor workout groove. It seems to be a really severe case of plantar fascitiis (which I've had before 15 years ago) with a probable heel spur back by my achilles. I had an acute injury incident while running in August and it hasn't been good since. I haven't even tried running in 5 months, biking works okay (it feels sore afterward), and now walking and hiking are also not options. The pain following formerly fun cardio activities is nasty and I end up limping around the house.
So this injury has driven me to the pool, swimming works, doesn't hurt, and burns calories. That means it is something I have to do, even in January! And I had this thought a couple weeks ago that maybe rowing would work. It isn't weight-bearing and it burns calories too. So I went to a gym near me to try it out for a few days. They would only let me have a one-day pass to try the one rowing machine. It didn't hurt my foot, but I really didn't like being back at the gym very much. It's a small gym, and the single rowing machine was positioned between treadmills and upright stationary bikes. This made me feel strange and inferior because everything around me towered over me.
I decided to go try out a few more rowing days on a 3-day pass to LA Fitness that opened up near me. I walked into this new gym and was instantly frustrated because I really liked it. Really, really. But I knew that I couldn't afford to join, or justify the cost, and I was sure that the whole membership thing would be a big hassle. But I couldn't help be jealous of the stream of people coming in scanning their member card and going to workout whenever they wanted. I rowed, and the machines were much nicer and had better placement. I discovered the spinning studio and busted out a fast and furious 15 minutes. I tried the elliptical, and then hit the machines. Gah! It was so nice to have all that nice shiny weight equipment at my disposal. Oh and the sauna, and jacuzzi, and pool to swim in. Holy calorie burnin' batman, this place rocks!
So I show up today for my last day and find out they're waiving the sign up fee, it's $29/mos. No fees for cancelling or freezing your acct. I couldn't believe I was considering it after all my gym trash talk. I am really flipping excited to report that I am a gym member. I hope this gets me some quality calorie burnin' and allows me to lose weight so I can make my foot feel better.
I am working on a new beginning, even though it is not the stereotypical 1st day of the year. I�m reminded of when I started my weight loss journey back on January 8, 2008. Six years! I had been working by myself for a few months after Wyatt�s 1st birthday. I had no luck at all going it alone. So this same week 6 years ago, I decided to buckle down and start reading Bob Greene�s Best Life book and join the online forum. The sense of community I had there was just what I needed. The motivation to meet my goals EVERY day so that I could have a �green� week that showed off all the hard work I�d done was powerful. So now that I�ve had this backslide, although the weight graph looks more like a hill climb) how to regain that sense of goal-meeting to keep me on track for days, weeks, and months on end?
I haven�t erased all the progress I made, although I�m much closer to my starting weight than I am to my lowest weight during the 6-year journey. While some parts of my weight gain have been out of my control, most of it was all very conscious and calculated. Cookie dough here, chocolate bars there, and a sprinkling of powdered sugar over the whole damn mess. But my exercise, workouts, and athletic events would normally help balance all that overeating. This would result in a nice long plateau with no net gain over months. This year was the most injurious year of my life though. Quadriceps strain in January, left hamstring pull in May, right hamstring pull in June, groin strain in July, and the straw that broke the big lady�s athletic life�. a running injury that resembled plantar fasciitis that has yet to be resolved. The last 5 months of my life look so much like all 37 years before I started this journey. Little fits and starts of exercise followed by long periods of inactivity. And this foot injury is killing me slowly, but more on that in another blog. Here is what I�ve been asking myself�
What if I had managed to start eating really clean when I got hurt? If I�d put all the focus on eating right since I couldn�t build training schedules and sign up for races, wouldn�t that have been amazing?
What if I had continued to train hard to build strength in all my other body parts? Perhaps I would have started an upper body ST plan to die for, imagine the arms and shoulders I�d be sporting! And those extra muscles would have burned more calories.
What if I had decided that swimming would be the way to go since even walking left me hurting? Perhaps I would have burned thousands of calories and had that cool thing happen where you eat better because you�ve had such a hard workout early that morning.
So yeah, I can look back, be critical, and find all sorts of room for improvement over the past 6 months. I do not have that time machine though, so I have to turn all that into a present day analysis. How about if today I focus on one of those three items listed above? What a cool idea. Let�s do it.
So here are the things I have done in preparation for a new life. I have found two local friends and we�ve all weighed in and set weight loss and fitness goals. I have set a goal of swimming at least 2 times each week. I have set a goal of strength training 4 times each week. I also am logging my food every day. This often gets tiring fast. But honestly, I just can�t be trusted in a house full of food and no accountability. My addicted brain has found the most ridiculous ways to justify my dumb food choices. Without fail, everyday, I must log my food and stick with it. I have tried stickers and calendars and all sorts of stuff. But I think I just need to make myself reflect each day with this journal or a video blog. I also must log my food for the next day before I go to bed. The mornings are so full of stuff, if I wait, it might not happen.
I am always looking ahead to some vacation or social gathering to hold in my mind as a �date� when I shall achieve awesomeness. But seriously, it never works. Never ever ever. And oddly enough, all those dates come and go no matter how I look. I have never cancelled a vacay or social gathering based on my appearance. So why do this to myself? I would like to string together a number of goal-oriented days that makes my mind spin. I want to look back on all the weeks/months and feel stunned, did I do that? I want to look at my weight loss progress graph and say, �Yeah boy! That steady trend downward is looking GOOD!� These are the things that I remember so well from past successful missions. These are the things that I will experience again. But I can�t live like I�ve been living and feel those things. I must live anew.
Sometimes you come across a blog/article that is full of information you already know. And sometimes you are in just the right frame of mind to soak all that goodness in and internalize it into a force for change in your own life.
That happened after I clicked on a link posted by someone on Fitocracy. It presented the simplest of all weight loss summations. If you want to lose weight, you need to create a calorie deficit every day. In the back of my mind I'd known for quite awhile that I needed to start tracking my food to get a hold of my overeating. As a scientist, I have firmly understood the thermodynamics of energy in vs. energy out. Nothing in the article was new research or new to me, but it hit me like a high-speed train just the same.
Why do I get caught up in this or that new book on weight loss?
Why do I base my weight loss almost 100% on fitness/competition?
Why do I suddenly decide that if I change the time of meals it will solve my problems?
Why do I get so wrapped up in not eating some carbs while I do eat others?
Why do I become convinced that I need this or that supplement to help me?
Because believing it's as a simple as calorie deficit makes me look dumb. If I just have to log my food and watch the scale go down, then why don't I do it?
Because I tracked food for so long and got tired of it.
Because it doesn't work when you only log successful days.
Because you can't log 3 out of 7 days and expect to see loss week after week.
So I'm here to share the blog with you and tell you that I am committing to achieve a calorie deficit as many days a week as I can muster. But my main commitment is to track EVERY SINGLE DAY. I do not care if I down an entire jar of Nutella, I will log it. Seeing the harsh reality of my choices before day's end can only do me more good in the long run. Rather than doing the naughty things repeatedly until my pants don't fit, I can see the damage sooner in the numbers on the screen.
Please feel free to check in (aka stalk) me to make sure if I'm keeping my word. I appreciate some verbal abuse and hounding! I really need to be held accountable.
Here is the link to that blog.
Are you looking for a positive blog? Well, this ain't it.
Are you looking for me to come back up in here all sad and glum, but feeling hopeful about the future? Sorry, not gonna do that right now.
You want to hear me get up in the pulpit and say hallelujah and amen sisters, I have the answer and I'm comin' clean? Maybe, come back next Sunday.
Truth, I haven't been here in months. I haven't lurked. I haven't quietly read along with what you're doing. Instead I'd put my sports bra on in the morning, plan a workout, then spend the day dipping the spoon into Nutella. I have not come here, even once, to check in on a team. I have been too busy playing candy crush saga while laying on my bed, injured foot propped up "resting" after my "hard" physical therapy. I had no idea what my spark page looked like anymore, it was like Christmas morning a couple minutes ago. What color will it be? What picture is in the background? When was my last blog? My last status? Squeeeee!
Okay, it was a little more dread than uber-excitement. I was pleased to see that the background pic was Wheeler peak in New Mexico. Mainly because it's the only goshdanged thing I've accomplished this year of an athletic nature. I climbed that beeyotch. But reading my last blog was disappointing, 8 weeks pre-hike when I thought I was getting skinnier for the hike (newsflash: I hiked all 200 lbs. of me up that 13,000 footer). My most recent status from 157 days ago read something about how many days of clean eating would it take to erase a few bad days of binging. Hmmm, so how about a few MONTHS of binge eating?
Sweet baby Jesus in the sky, I do not want to hate myself. I do not want to loathe these last couple months because they've been full of clumsiness and bull-headedness and injuries and physical therapy and limping. I had a fabulous time icing my foot on the sofa while eating chocolate. I read some of the best books I've ever read. I have enjoyed some terrific times with my kids and my husband. The bigger belly I've been carrying around, and the shame of letting those around me down (I know I haven't really, but I can't shake that feeling) has been trying to pull me down and keep me down.
I have come to this blog with absolutely nothing productive to say. I do not have answers, I do not have much of a plan, I have not got some THING on the horizon that I am needing to lose weight for. I just have a lot of the same ol' frustration, anger, and humiliation that I've been dealing with since I was 12. It's a roller coaster ride I have never gotten off of. But I feel like I'm ready to just start chipping away at this a little at a time. No gimmicks. No challenges. No magic pills. No events to train for. Just me, my brain, my body, my heart. Maybe I can come back here tomorrow and have something positive to say, but for today my message is simple... Hello, my name is Pam, I love life, I don't always love myself, and I'm going to see what I can accomplish tomorrow.
I wasn�t sure what to blog about, but since I haven�t written in so long, I thought I�d start with the positive.
I started a 10-week quest for health and fitness on 3/21. I picked that date because it was 10 weeks until we fly off for vacation to the Land of Enchantment (New Mexico for those not in the know). I�m planning to hike the highest peak while there with one of my high school friends, and this 16-mile hike at an altitude of 9,500-13,167 feet will be formidable. So preparation is required. I need two things for this hike:
1. Better level of fitness
2. Less weight to carry
My simple plan is to work out more and eat less. Heard of that one? I�ll get my heart ready for action, build a bunch of beautiful muscles, and eat so the fat just melts off me. And before I get all blah-blah-negative-grumpy-blah about how I never stick to my plans, let me do some positive self-talk�
The first week I worked out everyday. *TOOT* (I ate like crap)
The second week I worked out even harder. *TOOT*
And on April Fools I got to work full force with the help from my Anti-Blah girls and the Sand In Your Crack challenge. It�ll lead me straight up to Memorial Day weekend. I�ve outlined the things I track each day and I�ve had 3 successful days so far. Here are some more horn toots about my eating the last few days�
I have found Easter chocolate around the house and rather than eat it, I put it away. *TOOT*
I went out to eat Mexican with the kids and didn�t even eat a single chip while waiting on our food. *TOOT*
I had to provide a dessert for my son�s soccer team Monday, which I would normally bake myself because I�m a great baker and cheap. Instead I bought store-made cupcakes so I wouldn�t have batter and frosting to deal with. *TOOT*
As part of my tracking for the SIYC challenge, I am putting a little star down for each time I turn away from a temptation. When my brain would normally rationalize something so it could make its way into my mouth, I�m saying, �NO! That isn�t allowed and I will not be fooled by you, sneaky brain.� I put my star on the tracking page and give myself credit for strengthening my resistance muscle. I�ve been strengthening that giving-in muscle for WAY too long. It�s time to stand up for myself and my real goals.

CVG: Disney's ATV racer, Pure, is looking bloody good and we've got three exclusive in-game videos so you don't have to take our word for it. We played three of the game's lush-looking courses in a recent hands-on session. It might look ultra realistic on the surface but you only have to witness one of the game's mental jumps to see that it's not going to let the boring constrains of the real world effect it.

Br. Rice swimmer makes splash as camp volunteer
BY CHERYL DANGEL BARTOLINI Correspondent May 23, 2014 4:58PM

Updated: June 27, 2014 6:16AM
This summer will be bittersweet for Brother Rice High School graduating senior Mitch Strahlman.
It will be the fourth and final summer in which he'll be volunteering at the Edmund Rice Camp for Chicago inner-city kids.
Early on, Strahlman, who turns 18 Wednesday, was a reluctant volunteer.
"Initially, I was pushed to do it as a freshman," he said. "The other guys on my swim team were urging me to do it. I tried it out and really liked the experience. You come away realizing how good you have it."
After his first year, he didn't have to be pushed to repeat the experience.
"Hands down, my favorite activity is working at the camp," he said. "I love the Edmund Rice Camp because inner-city kids attend the camp for free. It is all a very humbling and rewarding experience."
That's saying a lot considering how many activities Strahlman has involved himself in during his four years at the school in Chicago's Mount Greenwood community. He was captain of the Brother Rice swim team, head editor for the school newspaper, a member of the key club, vice president of student council and vice president of the National Honor Society as a junior. He was named most valuable player three times for his efforts on the Brother Rice swim team, for whom he was a three-time state qualifier and a state finalist.
He also was named Junior of the Year and was a Larry Platt Essay Contest Finalist.
But his involvement with the Edmund Rice Camp trumps everything. There, as a camp counselor, he takes one or two kids under his wing for each day of the weeklong camp. He helps teach them to swim, runs the activities, oversees prayers and eats lunch with the kids.
"I've been counseling the same kids since my freshman year and now I know 75 percent of the kids by name," he said. "It will be hard seeing these kids for the last time. Before, I'd say, 'Hey, Max! I'll see you next year.' This year it will be hard saying goodbye for the last time."
Strahlman, the son of Chris and Mary Kay Strahlman, of Chicago's Beverly community, says his former theology teacher, Andrew Knoell, is his mentor.
"He isn't teaching right now because he is sick, but he made an impression on me. My mom teaches here at Brother Rice, and as a freshman, people thought of me as her son. Mr. Knoell just looked at me objectively as a kid and I appreciated that," he said.
Strahlman is committed to swim collegiately for Michigan State University.
"I plan on getting very involved and hope to get into business school and major in supply chain management," he said. "In 10 years, I'd like to have a good job that involves writing because it is something I'd like to do. I'll probably also still be doing laps in the YMCA pool.
"I have goals and I intend to reach them. I have goals for swimming and academics and that keeps me focused. When I practice swimming until 6 p.m., I know I have to get my homework done after that and that's it. My mom says if I didn't have swimming, I wouldn't be so focused because I'd have too much time. It helps me stay on top of things."

2014 NFL Draft Picks By Team: Broncos
Round 1, Pick 31 Bradley Roby, CB , Ohio StateRanked #21 in our Top 100 Prospects List
Roby's excellent straight line speed and above-average talents as a cover corner create a unique prospect with first round upside. A blazing 4.39 40-yard dash at the combine sealed the likelihood of his chances to be drafted early. One of the top corners in the nation with adequate height and terrific athleticism. Great anticipation of the route. Can sometimes jump route to make play on the football. Average hands. Still fooled too often by double moves, yet has enough speed to recover most of the time. Aggressive against screen passes. Good tackler compared to the average CB. Played often on an island. Was asked to cover every team's No. 1 receiver. More physical than most and will rely on hand-checks to disrupt the route early. Not quite strong enough to muscle up against bigger receivers. Certainly not afraid of contact though. Must add a little more muscle. Sometimes a little lost with his back turned away from the play. Roby projects as a late first to early second round selection in the 2014 NFL Draft.... [Read More]
Round 2, Pick 24 Cody Latimer, WR , IndianaRanked #51 in our Top 100 Prospects List
Latimer is a fast-rising receiver with a huge wingspan and solid speed considering his height and weight. One of the few Day 2 prospects with No. 1 receiver potential over the long term. Highly productive in college and was one of the Hoosiers' only competent playmakers. Good height and length. Big hands. Presents a big target with bigger catching radius. Above-average quickness in and out of his breaks. Shields defenders consistently. Good pacing when route-running. High school basketball background. Battled a foot injury in 2013 and still put together good stats. Not a burner but can still stretch the field if he finds a seam. Very willing to battle over the middle. Good upper body strength when blocking or setting the edge. No fear. Displayed great physicality on tape against Michigan State's Darqueze Dennard. Latimer projects as a late first to mid second round prospect in the 2014 NFL Draft.... [Read More]

Midlife students, did your high school every lose your transcripts? - page 2
Good day everyone: I recently applied to nursing school for their R.N. program (associate degree). The college I went to along with the business school for which I graduated (I have an associate degree in business) both... Read More
- 0Feb 3, '13 by Blue Felt FedoraQuote from KelRN215Wouldn't that make them unofficial? Mine had to be sealed in order for my school to accept them. If I'd had to retrieve them prior to destruction and sent them to schools myself, they would have been unsealed, unofficial and unacceptable.In my state, public schools are only required to keep records for 7 years. After that, they destroy your permanent records. They post an ad in the local newspaper saying "come get your records if you want them, records not retrieved by X date will be destroyed."
Quote from pmabrahamGlad to see you're getting it worked out.
Thank God, my college stated they do have a "scanned" copy of my transcripts; though they need the high school to authorize them giving me a copy or mailing a copy to the nursing school.
So now, I'm playing telephone tag trying to hook up the appropriate person at the high school to the appropriate person at the college.
- 0Feb 3, '13 by pmabrahamGood day:
FYI, if I get a pm, and don't respond it is due to the rules concerning number of quality points before being able to respond to pm's (this is just an fyi, not a complaint).
I appreciate the responses to date.
Hopefully tomorrow, I will be able to coordinate with the high school and the one college I attended (that has a scan of my HS transcripts) so that the college can release a set to me and to the school.
Thank you.
- 0Feb 3, '13 by sunbaby0811Yikes! What a pain!! I graduated HS in the mid-90s and had no problem getting mine BUT my school didn't have them. The school board archive department did. I had to send them a dollar LOL (yes, a one dollar bill in the envelope) and they pulled it from microfiche and mailed it off. Crazy that yours doesn't exist anymore! I hope you're able to get it resolved!
And just an aside to the person who said you didn't need to have them - the program I'm applying for DOES require them before you can graduate with the BSN. I have a bachelors and part of a masters, been to a handful of schools, etc, but yep - they need my HS transcripts. Weird, to me, lol but it is on the must have list.
- 0Feb 3, '13 by waitingtobeanurseThis happened to me as well. The sad thing is I graduated ahead of my class, during the summer the same year as my brother. When I requested my transcript from the records department for the department of education because my high school closed, they were able to find my brother's transcript but not mine. I have the diploma, and even sent them a copy but to no avail. All they said was they could send me a letter neither confirming nor denying my graduating from high school. I was flabbergasted since me and my brother graduated within months of each other. Apparently this happens quite a lot, with the student having to jump through hoops to prove they even went to school.
- 0Feb 3, '13 by pmabrahamGood day:
Several people told me it is a requirement of the law for a school district to keep the records; but, I'm not a litigious person, so I'm not sure what that means.
I'm not sure what a "scanned" copy means; but as soon as I'm able to get the HS and college talking to one another, I'm hoping to get a copy in addition to the nursing school getting a copy.
Thank you.
- 0Feb 3, '13 by vintagemotherI have heard of schools losing high school transcripts before. In my state, CA, I think it is the board of nursing that requires applicants to show proof of high school graduation. A friend of mine had difficulty obtaining his high school transcripts because his high school, in another state, burned down.
I recommend starting the process of obtaining transcript copies far in advance of applying.
- 0Feb 4, '13 by SopranoKrisI had a bit of an issue with mine. I graduated in 1988 and my school was nearly destroyed in Hurricane Andrew in 1992. This was before records were computerized in a central database. At the time, the records were only kept on a computer at the school and a paper file was kept at the county. When I went back to school, it took them a few months to be able to locate my high school transcripts because I didn't "exist".
Luckily, I had gone to a community college right after high school and they still had my official high school transcript on file. So, after a bit of back & forth with the school board, they were able to send this information to my high school so they could add me to the system. Nothing like red-tape to make you freak out, eh?
- 0Feb 4, '13 by BloomNurseRNI know that for the nursing school I attend, we had to attach a copy of our high school transcripts. I also know that some high schools have lost those transcripts and people have had to work around them. It really is a pain. Glad to hear your college had a scanned copy for you.

Crackdown developer Realtime Worlds wants to launch its new game, APB, next year.
"We want to launch APB in 2009, which will be pretty much worldwide - including the Asian markets. This is our first big online game", Realtime CEO (and GTA creator) Dave Jones has told Scotsman.
APB, in a nutshell, drops GTA-style gameplay into an MMO world. It's in development for PC and Xbox 360.
"If we have a big success with APB on the scale of, for example, World of Warcraft, then we could be looking at hundreds of millions of pounds. It just depends what happens after we launched it", Jones added.

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house . . .
The familiar words of Clement C. Moore's classic Christmas poem have never before been illustrated with such style. Richard Jesse Watson's magnificent paintings infuse traditional holiday images with pizzazz and flair. Spilling over with all the joy and generosity of the season, this playful picture book is perfect for families of today.
About the Author
Clement C. Moore (17791863), an American scholar and poet, first wrote The Night Before Christmas in 1822 to entertain his children. A friend submitted it to a local newspaper, The Troy Sentinel, where it was published on December 23, 1823. Moore's delightful description of St. Nicholas and his eight flying reindeer has since become the definitive portrait of Santa Claus.

Senate Advances Unemployment Benefits
(Unemployment Benefits article updated with new information on the Senate passing the unemployment benefits bill onto the House.)
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The Senate has passed a bill that would extend unemployment benefits to the 2.5 million Americans who have been jobless for six months.
The bill needed at least 60 votes to pass through the Senate. Maine Republican Senators Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins voted in favor of the bill. The bill passed with the final vote of West Virginia Democrat Carte Goodwin, who officially took the seat of the late Robert Byrd today.
The bill will be voted on by the House later this week, and if it is signed by President Obama, will cost $34 billion. If passed, the jobless will receive $300 a week on average, retroactive to June and lasting through November.-- Reported by Theresa McCabe in Boston.

MONTPELIER, Vt.
U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders is calling for a moratorium on the licensing of new nuclear plants and relicensing of existing ones, as well as other steps that would put the brakes on what's been touted as a nuclear renaissance in the United States.
The Vermont independent wrote to President Barack Obama asking for him to appoint a special commission to review the safety of U.S. nuclear plants following the nuclear disaster in Japan.
Sanders also wants to repeal a federal law that he says leaves the taxpayers to pick up most of the costs of a major nuclear accident. He says in a free-enterprise system, the nuclear industry should be required to insure itself against accidents.

Zosia attended the 'Punk Rock' Opening Night on November 17th. I've added 6 pictures to the gallery. Enjoy!
On November 10th Zosia attended the Glamour 2014 Women Of The Year Awards. I've added 15 pictures to the gallery. Enjoy!
Hello everyone, Mette here, you may remember me, I'm the founder of Zosia Mamet Fan and I'm now back as the owner here. I'm very excited to be back to work on ZMF.
For my first update back, I've added pictures from two events that Zosia attended, one from, yesterday October 27th and one from September 29th. Enjoy!
Zosia attended an event on Wednesday with her boyfriend, Evan Jonigkeit, and Girls co-star Allison Williams.
She wore a bright pink dress, and looked great!
Whilst at the event, her and Allison spilled the beans on what to expect from season 4.
We know that Hannah will spend at least part of the season in Iowa. How does that affect the group dynamic, with the girls being split up?
Zosia Mamet: I think that we're all split up quite a bit. If you break down the seasons a lot of the time, it's quite rare that we're all together.
Allison Williams: I think from last season you see Marnie's so supportive, she's like, "You have to go. It's Iowa; you have to go." So for Marnie it's a very exciting, very positive thing. It's just a matter of maintaining the long-distance friendship.
What would you like to see happen to your characters?
Mamet: Honestly, we have stopped trying to guess what's going to happen or wish for anything because our writing team is so incredible. They come up with things beyond our wildest imagination, so I'm really just along for the ride.
Williams: I like when she's in a happy place because she can be supportive and kind to her friends. That's what I root for, but that's asking a lot of someone who's often not in that kind of place. That's all I ever want for her.
Marnie certainly has had a lot of cringe-worthy moments. Do you like playing those?
Williams: Those are the real pearls; that's the real gem. I love playing those. It's perverse. I've developed a liking for them. It's kind of part of the job.
So how is filming going? What episode are you shooting right now?
Mamet: It's going really good. We're on Episode 7.
Williams: We're bouncing all over the place. I did a little [Episode] 5 today; we did 6 a little bit. It's going so well. It's the most fun. I still can't believe it's my job.
What's in store for Shoshanna and Marnie in Season 4?
Mamet: More insanity, more testing the waters and trying things out, and growing. We're all growing and shifting and changing like people do in their 20s.
Williams: It sort of picks up where we leave her last season in a way that nothing's vastly different, let's put it that way.
How is Shoshanna coping with not being able to graduate at the end of last season?
Mamet: I think that she worked it out in a bit of a messy way, but she gets over it.
Is Marnie still pursuing her singing ambitions? Any more music videos this season?
Williams: Yes, I think I can say that. None yet, but I can't say that she won't think of [making another video] soon.

Check out Zosia's column in this month's Glamour Magazine.
I have been incredibly blessed with success in my chosen career. I've worked my ass off and had the support and encouragement of those around me to keep climbing. But what if tomorrow I decided I was content with the place I'd reached in acting and planned to open a small coffee shop in Vermont? That job wouldn't necessarily be any easier, but I believe I would be considered less successful. My friends, some of them, would ask me if it was what I really wanted (code for "You're making a mistake"). My agent would think I was insane, and my family would definitely be confused. And if I didn't turn my little coffee shop into some world-renowned Magnolia Bakery of the north, if I kept it small and had a happy life, I probably wouldn't be considered a success at that either, which is ridiculous.
We are so obsessed with "making it" these days we've lost sight of what it means to be successful on our own terms. As women we have internalized the idea that every morning we wake up, we have to go for the f–king gold. You can't just jog; you have to run a triathlon. Having a cup of coffee, reading the paper, and heading to work isn't enough—that's settling, that's giving in, that's letting them win. You have to wake up, have a cup of coffee, conquer France, bake a perfect cake, take a boxing class, and figure out how you are going to get that corner office or become district supervisor, while also looking damn sexy—but not too sexy, because cleavage is degrading—all before lunchtime. Who in her right mind would want to do that? And who would even be able to?
I think, unfortunately, some of our need to succeed professionally is a by-product of a good thing: feminism. Feminism was meant to empower us as women, to build us up for fighting on male-dominated battlefields. It did that, but it did some other things as well. It gave us female role models like Hillary and Oprah and Beyoncé and in the process implied that mogul-hood should be every woman's goal. We kept the old male ideas of success: power and money. We need new ones!
A few years ago I was about to make a movie with some friends, a passion project we were doing for love, not money. Then I was offered a spot on a hit TV show—a gig that would have paid more than the entire budget of our film, but it would have meant not doing the film. I told my agent to turn it down, and he couldn't understand. To him the bigger job and the bigger paycheck were the whole point, but for me the point was to do something I really cared about. I was lucky to have that option, and it felt so right to say, "This is more important to me."
I hate that we look at women who choose not to run a country as having given up. I get angry that, when a woman decides to hold off on gunning for a promotion because she wants to have a baby, other women whisper that "she's throwing away her potential." That is when we're not supporting our own. Who are we to put such a limited definition on success? The Merriam-Webster dictionary says success is "the correct or desired result of an attempt." But you get to decide what you attempt. If you get off running a global hair care empire, more power to you, but if working as a hairdresser somewhere within that empire brings you joy, then that should be just as admirable. You shouldn't feel like you're letting down the team.
The solution, I think, is to ask ourselves what we actually want—each of us personally—and stop putting so much pressure on one another. Success isn't about winning everything; it's about achieving your dream, be that teaching middle school or flying jets. And no matter what we as individual women want, no matter what our goals, we have to support one another. Because I might actually open a café in Vermont—just a small one, where I make the muffins myself—and I hope you ladies don't think me any less of a woman for it.

McGlinchey, as she is now known, previously admitted a charge of buying the mobile phone used by the Real IRA to claim responsibility for the murders of two British soldiers outside Massereene Army Barracks in March 2009.
The 59-year old, from Stockman's Avenue in west Belfast, also admitted helping out at a Real IRA Easter commemoration in April 2011, during which she was pictured holding a statement for a masked man in a Londonderry cemetery.
Sentencing McGlinchey, Judge Gordon Kerr QC told the court McGlinchey had a "significant conviction for terrorist activity" in reference to two life sentences imposed in November 1974 for her role in the Old Bailey bombing.
The judge did, however, tell the court that pre-sentence reports presented to him suggested McGlinchey was "no longer interested in political activity".
He also spoke of McGlinchey's physical and psychiatric problems, saying sending her back to jail would result in "psychotic depression."
McGlinchey pleaded guilty to providing property for the purposes of terrorism on 8 March 2009 and for this she was handed a 12-month prison sentence.
She also admitted aiding and abetting, counselling and procuring the address made to encourage support for the Real IRA at the Easter Rising parade in Derry on 25 April 2011, for which she received an nine-month sentence.
Judge Kerr ordered that the sentences run concurrently, which he then suspended for three years.

I think if you do these dreadful things...you should still have to face the consequences of your actions.
Geraldine Ferguson, Sapper Patrick Azimkar's mother
Sapper Patrick Azimkar, 21, was shot down at the Army barracks in Antrim along with 23-year-old Sapper Mark Quinsey, as they went to collect a pizza delivery.
Speaking to U105's Frank Mitchell, Geraldine Ferguson, mother of Mr Azimkar, said she felt very shocked by the sentence. "It's astonishing how the courts don't seem to be able, or willing, to convict the people who murdered or who were actively involved in murdering our son Patrick, who would have turned 26 yesterday," she said.
"It's very difficult to understand."
Following the sentencing, police released images of Marian McGlinchey buying the mobile phone in question.
A spokesman for PSNI Serious Crime Branch said: "Despite today's sentencing, and previous acquittals, the investigation remains open.
"Police would appeal to anyone with any information about those involved in these murders to contact them.
"The tragic outcome of those events in March 2009 is that the Azimkar and Quinsey families are facing another year without their brothers and son.
"Anyone who knows anything about the murders or can assist in any way with the investigation should do the right thing and talk to police on 0845 600 8000."

Spy shots: New Accord based CUV could arrive by the end of the year
It's not clear if this is the final body style that will appear, but the car actually has quite handsome proportions. Power will likely come from either the current Accord 2.4-liter four and 3.5-liter V6 engines, or possibly the Acura RDX 2.3L turbo. It's unfortunate that the 2.2L i-DTEC diesel is dead in the water for America because that would actually be an ideal candidate for such a vehicle. John Mendel, executive vice-president of American Honda confirmed to a dealer meeting over the weekend that a new product is coming for the brand this fall. The new CUV is expected to debut at the LA Auto Show in November.

I (heart) BarCampRDU, Weird Al, and Fiesta GrillPaul, · Categories: General
My weekend in three locations.
BarCampRDU (Flickr photos tagged barcamprdu and technorati posts tagged barcamprdu)
Weird Al at Carowinds exceeded expectations as they say in school surveys. His parody of Michael Jackson's "Bad" as "Fat" done in a fat suit was one of the best of his many many costumed performances.
I cannot say enough good things about the food at the Fiesta Grill. If the Fiesta were closer than the taco trucks, I'd only eat Mexican at the Fiesta.
3 Responses to "I (heart) BarCampRDU, Weird Al, and Fiesta Grill"
You forgot that not only did Al perform in an incredible array of costumes, but it was 98+ in the pit at Carowinds!
Love Weird Al and love the Fiesta Grill.

(Latin: ad, to; tendere, to stretch)
Earnest direction of the senses and mind to some occupation or duty, as prayer and administration of the sacraments. In vocal prayer it implies mindfulness of the words or purpose of the prayer; in mental, attention to the matter of meditation and to the spiritual affections aroused. In administering the sacraments sufficient attention is required to avoid any distraction that might occasion a mistake, and at the time of the Consecration at Mass avoidance of wilful distraction. The obligation to recite the Divine Office is satisfied by avoiding any action that is inconsistent, but to recite it properly some internal attention to the words is required. So also external attention suffices for fulfilling the obligation of assisting at Mass, but internal attention is required to assist at it with due devotion.New Catholic Dictionary

BAGHDAD (AP) -- Iraqi officials are warning that a U.S. special forces raid into Syria could be used for political purposes by opponents of the security pact under negotiation with the United States.
The agreement would extend the legal basis for American forces in Iraq after a U.N. mandate expires on Dec. 31. But opponents and other countries in the region have expressed concern that a long-term U.S. presence would allow the U.S. to use Iraq as a staging ground for attacks against its neighbors.
A prominent Kurdish politician claims the raid was carried out without the Iraqi government's knowledge and says it gives Iran reason to interfere in the debate over the security pact.
Meanwhile, a senior Shiite lawmaker says U.S. forces have been "acting provocatively" in areas where they've handed over security. He says it sends a message that "Iraq is not in control of its own affairs."
A government spokesman, however, calls the area where the raid took place "a theater of military operations where anti-Iraq terrorist activity takes place."

Oct. 11 (Bloomberg) -- Enbridge Inc. is conducting survey work along the Spearhead crude oil pipeline in Will County, Illinois, to gather information for potential expansions and maintenance, according to a company spokeswoman.
"If such a market-driven expansion or an integrity maintenance project moves forward, we will make formal announcements and begin a detailed consultation and regulatory review process," Lorraine Little, an Enbridge spokeswoman, wrote in an e-mail. "At this point, however, we are merely gathering survey and environmental information,"
Enbridge is considering expansions to its main crude oil pipelines totaling about $3 billion, including a project called Flanagan South, Steve Wuori, president of liquids pipelines at Enbridge, said at an Oct. 4 conference in Toronto.
The 650-mile Spearhead, which runs to Cushing, Oklahoma, from Flanagan, Illinois, has an average annual capacity of 190,000 barrels a day, according to a company website.
The line "goes down to Cushing, probably paralleling our existing Spearhead Pipeline that now moves crude to Cushing," he said.
Enbridge began shipping Western Canadian crude through Spearhead to Cushing, the delivery point for New York Mercantile Exchange oil futures, in 2006, after reversing the flow of the line.
"The flows over the Spearhead pipeline have become a critically important connection between the Midwest and the Midcontinent markets," analysts at Goldman Sachs Group Inc. led by David Greely in New York, said Oct. 4 in a report.
