Big Ben's injury won't have fantasy impact
Michael Fabiano | Tags: Ben Roethlisberger, Eli Manning, Kyle Orton, Mark Sanchez, Matt Cassel, Matt Ryan, Ryan Fitzpatrick
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that Ben Roethlisberger suffered a broken fifth metatarsal bone in his right foot last week against the Bills. However, the Steelers responded to the report with a statement that claims Big Ben aggravated an old injury where scar tissue is present.
Regardless, he's not expected to miss any time because of the ailment. That's a relief for fantasy footballers who are leaning on him for the stretch run.
The real question is whether or not Roethlisberger's ailment, coupled with a contest against the Ravens, makes him a risky starter in Week 13. While I would start Matt Cassel, Mark Sanchez and Eli Manning ahead of him, I don't see the Steelers quarterback as having a terrible matchup.
In fact, the Ravens have given up big passing performances to Kyle Orton, Ryan Fitzpatrick and Matt Ryan this season. Furthermore, Roethlisberger has thrown for a combined 905 yards with eight touchdowns and two interceptions in his last four starts against them.

My 5x great grandfather Amos Upton had a good memory for a 90 year old
man when he applied for his Revolutionary War Veteran's Pension in August
of 1832 but unfortunately that was all he had with which to make his case. His
friends who had witnessed his service were all dead so they could not testify
in his behalf, nor did he have any documents he could produce as proof, either.
His statement was termed "traditionary evidence" on the brief filed with his
application. Now according to Black's Law Dictionary, traditionary evidence is
"Evidence derived from tradition or reputation or the statements formerly
made by persons since deceased." Amos was not dead, but the term was the
closest to his defining statement. The next step was an inquiry into the
military records of Massachusetts where Amos had been living during the
Revolution. The answer came back in April 1833 and it was not good news:
"Boston Sec. Office, April 24, 1833
Thomas Clark, Esq.
I send you a certificate of all that can be found as (pertains?) the service of
John Lombard. Amos Upton I do not find at all. There is one Roll of Capt.
Asa Prince's company, but Upton's name is not on it.
Edward S (Bangsby?)"
But Amos didn't give up. The rely had been written on April 24th and most have
taken two or three days to get from Boston up to Norway in Western Maine. A
few days after that, Amos reapplied for hs pension:
"State of Maine, Oxford SS May 1, 1833. Personally appeared before me, the
undersigned, a Justice of the Peace, in and for the county of Oxford, Amos
Upton who, being duly sworn, deposeth and saith, that by reason of old age,
and the consequent loss of memory, he cannot swear positively as to the
precise length of his service , but according to the best of his recollection
he served not less than the period mentioned below, and in the following
grade: viz. For six months I served as a sergeant and for such service I
claim a pension.
Amos Upton."
There's none of the names of officers Amos mentioned in his first application.
His signature looks shaky and the "t" in Upton looks as if he forgot it and had
to add it after the original signature. Looking at this statement, with even less
information than on his already rejected first application, it's hard to think that
Amos would have any success this time around. But he did. I believe that someone
in the Massachusetts state government finally found the records for this entry in
Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors in the War of the Revolution:
"Volume 16
page 226
Upton, Amos, Reading.List dated Reading, 2d Parish, May 15, 1775, of men who
enlisted under Capt. Asa Prince, of Danvers, as returned by Capt. John Flint to Col.
David Green; also, Sergeant, Capt. Prince's co., Col. Mansfield's regt.; order for
advance pay, signed by said Upton and others, dated Cambridge, June 8, 1775; also,
Capt. Prince's co., Col. John Mansfield's (19th) regt. commanded by Lieut. Col.
Israel Hutchinson; company return dated Oct. 6, 1775."
A certificate of pension was issued on August 2 1833. Amos Upton was to receive $30
a year, a good amount of money in those days, beginning the following year of 1834. But
he also received $75 immediately, $60 of which was in arrears.
Amos lived for another five years, finally passing away at the age of 95 on 3Apr 1838.
He had been probably the last surviving Revolutionary War veteran in Norway, Maine.

I can see where you get your persistence. Isn't it wonder that these documents are easier to dig up these days. And that Amos Upton had a descendant who liked to dig.

Thanks, Janice!

Bill, this has been one of my favourite blogs to read, thanks for sharing it and I'm glad it all worked out for Amos in the end!

I thought the whole actual procedure went well. I went home the day of the procedure in a lot of pain but I actually healed pretty good after 3 days, which is how it is supposed to be for breast implants. But I realized something was very uncomfortable in my right shoulder so when I was strong enough I looked in the mirror and it was the medical bra they put on me. The bra strap was all twisted on my right shoulder and was digging into my skin from the weight of my new breasts and I had a cut from the scraping of the bra. The surgeon so careless when putting on the bra so now I have a a scar on my shoulder from it. Also its been a couple of months and I still have no sensation in my left nipple. So its the worst when I get cold because one nipple is hard and one is soft which you can imagine looks abnormal. I also asked for a 32 D and received a 32 C cup. All and all I would say its the worst thing to go through a procedure and still not be content with what you have because its not what you asked for and you left it all up to a doctor who did not really care in the first place. I went to him because I was impatient and saw all the great reviews, but all of them are for butt lifts and you can tell hes only top rated on Real Self because he comments on general questions patients ask on the website but when you actually read the comment it is not helpful to the patient, just restating what another doctor said previously on Real Self in less detail. Please be wiser then me and do more research before you go to Dr.Francis, I know I wish I did. It could've saved me 3,000 dollars ( overcharges) and a lifetime of regret. So until I get more money I cannot fix what he has done.
Breast Implants Not What Was Promised - New York, NY
I thought the whole actual procedure went well. I...
The receptionist Anela was also very shady. You will feel it when you talk to her for awhile. She changed the price of the procedure last minute (the day before the procedure) by upping it another 500 dollars just because I did not want a brazilian butt lift with it. When normal breast implants now cost 4,000-6,000 max.

Just days after releasing a portentous film strip-style documentary on the origins of Columbia, Irrational Games has flown right back to the spellbinding skyborne city with another trailer for BioShock Infinite. This time, with all due respect to Alistar Bloom, it's the game itself that does the talking — providing some intriguing new glimpses of Elizabeth, the Prophet, Columbia and its citizenry, the Motorized Patriot (a Gatling gun-wielding George Washington) and the game's first-person shooting combat.
Entitled "City in the Sky," the trailer runs at just over a minute and spans… well, pretty much everything Irrational Games has built over the last, at least, three years. "Another ark for another time," as one voice-over character is heard likening it, Columbia's initial atmosphere looks as far removed from Rapture's in style as it is in O2 level — blanketed in fresh air and sunshine; teeming with joyful citizens, fantastical inventions and Founding Father idolatry.
But we know where the story goes from there. The trailer flashes through shots of bound and bloodied corpses; Elizabeth's escape (and dreams of Paris and the Eiffel Tower); first-person combat with an array of weapons; enemies like the Patriot, the Handy Man and Songbird; and an ostensible end that Ken Levine bills as "nothing you've actually experienced in a video game before."
As exciting as each snippet might be, though, there's broader importance here, too, considering BioShock Infinite's development time: The trailer is as wide-ranging as any Irrational has released. We've seen story cinematics, gameplay presentations and features on the deadly heavy hitters. We've even seen the first five minutes of BioShock Infinite's opening chapter, revealing how ex-Pinkerton protagonist Booker Dewitt embarks on his journey, desperate to clear his sea-level debts. But here we get the full spectrum: story, setting, and the havoc they yield. It's a not so subtle hint that, just like porcelain George, Infinite is fired up on all cylinders and ready for the spotlight.
BioShock Infinite will land on the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC on March 26, 2013.

Modern air travel is tough for geeks: The more gadgets you carry, the harder it is to get through security without a cavity search. Victorinox is helping eliminate such embarrassments with the Empire, a TSA-pleasing, laptop-schlepping messenger bag.
Victorinox Empire Laptop Bag
Well-designed and convenient for gadgety frequent fliers. Quick-access front pocket is magnetically friendly — good for stashing tickets and other documents with magnetic stripes. Accommodates laptops up to 17 inches in screen size. Misplaced bags can be identified and returned (for free!) through serial number registration.
Pricier than some roundtrip commuter flights. Capacious laptop pouch lets little netbooks slip through the cracks. Though the strap is adjustable, the shoulder pad isn't. Heavy-duty zippers clang together, announcing your every step.
How We Rate
- 1/10A complete failure in every way
- 2/10Sad, really
- 3/10Serious flaws; proceed with caution
- 4/10Downsides outweigh upsides
- 5/10Recommended with reservations
- 6/10Solid with some issues
- 7/10Very good, but not quite great
- 8/10Excellent, with room to kvetch
- 9/10Nearly flawless
- 10/10Metaphysical perfection
As you might suspect, the bag's killer feature is the laptop pouch. To appease the TSA's new, somewhat less draconian carry-on guidelines (e.g., notebooks can stay in bags if the garment lies flat), the Empire's static-free laptop compartment zips in half. This won't always guarantee a fast pass, since some airports are stricter than others. But little bonuses like mesh vents increase the visibility of the notebook inside, making for faster visual inspections. Overall, converting the bag from its normal state to "X-ray ready" is easy enough, though the large pouch and single velcro strap were too big for anything smaller than a 12-inch screen, like a netbook.
The rest of the Empire's pockets are a mixed bag. The main catch-all pocket is just that — a surprisingly featureless bucket where our magazines, headphones, granola bars and documents intermingled like coeds on spring break.
We would have liked a little more order in the biggest pouch, but we can't really blame the bag for our pack-rat tendencies. The fact that bag offers so much real estate is its silver lining.
Even with a few snags, the surprisingly sturdy design ultimately elevates the Empire far above its mushy messenger competitors. Though this build quality and convenience doesn't come cheap, it's still the smartest, most elegant way to let the TSA check your tech.

SAME TIME, NEXT YEAR Film Remake in the Works!
According to Deadline.com, Universal Pictures and theatre producer Scott Rudin are planning a remake of 1978 film and 1975 play 'Same Time, Next Year.' Mark and Jay Duplass are currently in talks to write the screenplay, based on the Bernard Slade script. Casting has not yet been announced.
Rudin just won a Tony Award on Sunday night for the Broadway revival of DEATH OF A SALESMAN. Additional producing credits include: ONE MAN, TWO GUVNORS, THE BOOK OF MORMON, JERUSALEM and more.
Click here to read the full article.
Same Time, Next Year focuses on two people, married to others, who meet for a romantic tryst once a year for two dozen years. New Jersey accountant George and Oakland housewife Doris meet at a Northern California inn in February 1951. They have an affair, and agree to meet once a year, despite the fact both are married to others and have six children between them.
The Broadway production was directed by Gene Saks. After four previews, it opened on March 14, 1975 at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre with Ellen Burstyn as Doris and Charles Grodin as George. It transferred to the Ambassador Theatre on May 16, 1978 and remained there until it closed on September 3 the same year.

Even a small degree of greed is enough to destroy the untarnished reputation of a renowned man, and the most praiseworthy attributes of a virtuous man – just as white patches on skin spoils the most graceful features.
Riches seldom bring happiness to the wicked man. They only cause the mortification of his body while he is alive and pave the way for hell after he is dead.
Whether in the acquisition of wealth, or, after it has been acquired, in the increase, maintenance, expenditure, enjoyment, or loss of it, men undergo exertion, fear anxiety and delusion.

The latest round of back-and-forth in the endless IP battle between Apple and Samsung is over, and the former has come out on top. According to an 8-person jury in the federal court, various Samsung phones and tablets, including the Galaxy S II and III, Galaxy Note, and Galaxy Nexus, infringed on three Apple patents. The jury awarded Apple $119.6 million USD in damages.
Apple didn't have it all its own way: the jury also found that none of the Samsung phones presented violated two other Apple patents, and they awarded Samsung $158,400 after finding Apple guilty of unintentionally violating one of the Korean company's patents presented in a counter-suit.Read More

Earlier this week Dan Priseman and Master Distiller Jim Ruteledge of Four Roses hosted a 'bourbon and burgers' evening at Hawksmoor Seven Dials to launch the brand's Single Barrel Limited Edition 2011.
With only 180 bottles being released onto the UK market, the much-abused 'Limited Edition' moniker is well and truly deserved; in fact, Priseman joked that the whiskey was so precious he'd smuggled the bottles from the distillery in order that we could taste it. Taste we did, and were suitably impressed; 12 years old, and bottled at cask-strength (55.5%-58.5% abv.) the 2011 release is pleasantly lacking in the kind of burn we were anticipating, but has a fantastically viscous mouthfeel and a creamy maple syrup finish. The nose is floral, with suggestions of toffee and cayenne pepper; on the palate this spiciness translates to a more subtle cinnamon flavour, tempered by parma violets and rich, sweet rye. The unexpectedly delicate nature of the expression is attributed to the use of Four Roses' Q-strain of yeast, replaced every 10 days to ensure a consistent result.
Ruteledge made sure that his audience was acutely aware of the unique nature of this expression, stating that he will never again bottle at cask-strength, as his personal preference is for a smoother finish, with as little burn as possible, stating 'The nose doesn't count for anything if the finish is rough, it's all about the finish. There's no way I'd have approved such a high abv. if it didn't go down so easily.' The smoothness is again attributed to the Q-strain of yeast, of which Ruteledge is clearly more than a little fond. 'We used it in the 2009 Single Barrel – one day in the warehouse I walked by the casks and was knocked back by these amazing rose and honeysuckle aromas; they took me right back to being 11 years old, barefoot in the garden, trying to catch honey bees.' Ruteledge recalled. Four Roses Single Barrel Limited Edition is not yet available in the UK, but will be soon and is to be distributed by Inspirit Brands.

The IE Factor [stopdesign.com], money paragraphs quoted here.
Such is often the case when designing with CSS. When working with semi-complex layouts, I frequently encounter challenges that end up slowing me down. I'm getting familiar with these road blocks, and can often predict where I'll find them. Having patience, or knowing what to try to get around them prevents head from going through monitor.
Without a doubt, the biggest challenge I encounter each time is in wrangling Microsoft's Internet Expl
I know the feeling totally. IE is so variably buggy, yet so dominant in the market place. IE is probably the biggest impediment to clean modern web design. As Microsoft has officially stated that there will be no major change to IE until Longhorn, it looks like web design will be held back in the 1990s for another few years, or everyone will try a better browser - there are plenty to choose from...

International superstar recording artist Josh Groban attended the final performance of the spectacular specialty Stephen Sondheim revue A BED AND A CHAIR last night and posed for a photo with noted Sondheim interpreter, stage and screen star Bernadette Peters backstage following the performance.
Featuring jazz arrangements procured by music master Wynton Marsalis, A BED AND A CHAIR played from November 14 through 17 at City Center.
Directed by John Doyle and conceived originally by Peter Gethers, Jack Viertel and Doyle, A BED AND A CHAIR, subtitled "A New York Love Affair," showcased sterling songs by Sondheim reinvented and reinterpreted by Marsalis featuring a cast of vocalists and dancers.
The official description of A BED AND A CHAIR was as follows: "A BED AND A CHAIR: A New York Love Affair celebrates love in New York and love of New York. For this original production, native Manhattanite Sondheim and adopted citizen Marsalis (originally from New Orleans) compared musical notes on their shared passion for our city. The program will feature more than two dozen Sondheim compositions, each piece newly re-imagined by the unique musical sensibility of Marsalis and performed by Marsalis and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra. Performers will be drawn from both the jazz and Broadway worlds."

Additionally, check out my InDepth InterView with Josh Groban, available here, and Bernadette Peters, available here.

The Moreys, '59, "were kids from working families" and believe that "later in life when you are successful, you need to think about giving back." That's exactly what they've done with their initial donation of over $10,000 towards this scholarship. Their daughter and son-in-law, Carolyn and Teall Edds, followed suit and added an additional $20,000 to this award to celebrate the Morey's 50th wedding anniversary. The Moreys understand how much NAU relies on private funding, and they believe in enriching student experience and promoting student success. They look forward to meeting award recipients and learning how the internship experience has changed their lives.

Ice carving team brings home award
COOS COUNTY, Ore. -- The Oregon Coast Culinary Institute's ice carving team is back from the world championships, and they've brought some medals back with them.
Instructors Chris Foltz and Woojay Poynter, along with students Jillian Howell and Amelia Rombach took second place in the multi-block competition.
The girls were the only students from the area to compete.
"When they called our name, when they called our site number, we all started jumping up and down," Howell said. "There was nothing that can come close to that feeling at all, ever."
Foltz says as an instructor, it's just as satisfying. "It's just as exciting for me as it is for them," he said. "I just hide it a little better. So, to see them without a filter is pretty awesome. It's great to see."
The girls say this win will help them find jobs.
Foltz says he's already planning for next year.

Internet industry giant Google has joined financial forces with the New York based Good Energies and Japan's Marubeni for a project led by Trans-Elect. The project will lay approximately 350 miles of underwater electric cable that will potentially form the backbone of a power grid for future offshore wind turbines.
Google announced the project "a superhighway for clean energy" on its blog: http://googleblog.blogspot.com/
The cable will run from Virginia to New Jersey, and may offer a sustainable way to generate electricity without producing harmful greenhouse gases. The cost associated with this titanic length of cable has not been released, but the New York Times reports it at approximately $5 billion.
Google announced in 2007 that it would begin taking an interest in companies and research that would produce renewable energy, and has also invested in onshore wind and solar energy in addition to the upcoming offshore wind turbine project.

Big and Bold.This is definitely a toy for the size queen in you!! It is not for beginners or even intermediate toy users. I would only suggest this toy for advanced users. This thing is long, thick and weighty. Its vibrations are good and it has the advantage.
pretty, suction cup, good vibrations
This is a great solo or with a partner. The vibrations are more focused in the tip where the motor is located. This toy is for advanced users in my opinion. I think this is a toy for any and all occasions (as long as you want something big). It could be fun for someone really wanting a stretch. If you enjoy being filled to the brim this could really work for you.
Material / Texture
This is a Jelly vibrator with a suction cup. It has a sweet smell which is better than your normal chemical smell from jelly toys. It has no taste and has a textured shaft and balls. The texture doesn't add much stimulation for me but for people who are more sensitive to texture it might be nice. The texture is not bad for those beginning to try textured toys.
Design / Shape / Size
I love the design of this toy. The suction cup is great and the cord with battery pack work great for tub play. The shape is a little strange to me because it is wider at the tip and then gets smaller for the rest of the shaft. This is not a size for beginners at all. This think will give even a seasoned toy user quite a stretch. This toy is not discreet and i would not travel with it.
Functions / Performance / Controls
This toy has a dial operated vibrator so it is not really great for those who want lots of functions. The vibrations are strongest at the tip where the vibrating motor is located and can be felt all the way into the balls. I wish the vibrations were a little stronger though since this is such a thick toy. The controlled are really easy to use so that is a plus in my book for sure. This toy is not too noisy at all really. It works great for me and I think it is made well. It is waterproof just make sure the battery pack doesn't get wet.
Care and Maintenance
This is a jelly toy so it needs to be used with a water based lube. It should never be shared or switched between holes unless you use a condom on it. It is relatively easy to clean, just wipe with a toy spray or wipes. It does collect a lot of hair and lint so make sure to wash before and after each use to keep it as clean as possible. This thing is a monster so storing it is not the easiest task. I have mine in one of those storage footrest stools with a lid next to my bed.
Follow-up commentary 12 days after original review
I am getting more used to the size but I have to have some warm up before I try this one. I do enjoy the strength of the vibrations and the suction cup is a big plus in my opinion.

I went to the dermatologist for juvederm which I love and complained about the skin around my chin. The nurse told me it was "creping" and the fraxel laser would get rid of that, so after some research, I decided to go for it. It is painful but they put the numbing cream on one hour prior to the procedure plus give me a vicodin. Afterwards my face is swollen for about five days and red for about seven. After the first time I had a lot of breakouts but not anymore. After three sessions (one a month), I see no improvements at all. I have three more to go, so I will write another review when I am finished. It is expensive and a lot of inconvenience to endure for no results.
Half Way Through, Am Still Waiting for the Expected Results!

Defense: Concussions May Have Caused Poor Decision Making In Giusto Murder
The attorney for the 16-year old alleged driver moved to have his client undergo a competency and sanity evaluation. Attorney Andrew Childress filed the motion for the evaluation Monday in Lynchburg Juvenile Court because he claims his client's medical condition has left him with impaired judgement.
This coming during a scheduled preliminary hearing for his client, as well as the two other minors charged in the shooting of 20-year-old Lawrence Giusto, was continued until the end of the month.
Giusto was gunned down around 2:30 am on June 20th, while sitting in his car.
In a previous hearing, Deputy Commonwealth's Attorney Chuck Felmlee said police found several weapons in the minor's red SUV, including an AK-47 assault rifle.
In his motion, Defense attorney Childress claims his 16-year old client suffered five serious head traumas, including three from playing football.
He maintains those traumas left the minor with frontal lobe damage, causing short-term memory loss and impaired decision making skills.
Judge H. Cary Payne ordered the evaluation, which must be conducted within the next 96 hours.
In continuing the case, Judge Payne said the defense has not received all evidence from investigators, including a recorded statement between one minor and law enforcement, just before being arrested.
Preliminary hearings for the alleged driver are now rescheduled for July 28th

To invest properly during turmoil, it is useful to have a framework that can help you put market conditions in context.
One such framework was suggested by investment prodigy Richard Farleigh, an underprivileged boy from the Australian outback who put himself through university, then ran the highly successful proprietary trading desk at Bankers Trust Australia, before starting a Bermuda-based hedge fund.
Mr. Farleigh divides the investment environment into four scenarios, based on GDP growth and inflation. In each situation, a different set of assets does best. Here are the four scenarios, and the top investing strategies for each:
1. In a high inflation, high growth environment, you load up on commodities.
2. In a low inflation, high growth environment, you highlight stocks.
3. In a low inflation, low growth environment, you emphasize bonds.
4. In a high inflation, low growth environment, you are likely to lose money no matter what you do, and so should aim mainly to protect capital.
Where are we today? I believe we are in the first scenario. While core inflation numbers remain low, prices for gasoline and food are surging. Central banks are creating massive amounts of money, which is driving commodity prices higher and making millionaires out of folks who invested early in junior gold mining stocks.
All four circumstances are temporary, but the current one is the most unstable of all, because growth based on inflationary money-printing ends in one of two ways: either in social disorder (see: the French Revolution, 1920s Germany, 1970s Brazil), or in central banks having to raise rates to brutal levels to stem the inflation they've created.
So where are we likely to go from here? For now, we can rule out the second scenario - the promised land of low inflation and high growth. There is no way to squeeze inflation without quashing growth, nor keep growing the economy via repeated rounds of government stimulus spending without stoking inflation.
What's left then is either the third or fourth situation. One way or another, lower growth is now a near certainty. The only question is the direction of inflation. And that depends on whether policy makers choose to endure social disorder or subject the economy to a painful squeeze from higher interest rates.
Pain, Either Way
In some places - notably the Arab Mideast - social disorder is the likeliest alternative. Yet such places constitute only a small part of the world's GDP.
In the much larger economies of the West, some central banks are already beginning to raise rates, and more are likely to follow. In addition, the U.S. Federal Reserve is likely to stop its policy of quantitative easing by this summer, which means an end to Washington's policy of creating money.
All of this means that both economic growth and inflation should moderate in the near term. Most likely, we will shift to the third scenario, the "Japanese quadrant" of low growth and low inflation.
A move in that direction should strengthen bonds. At the same time, high quality stocks with predictable long-term earnings - IBM, for example - should continue to do well.
But what if short rates do not rise enough to reduce inflation? Or if the U.S. administration chickens out and fails to withdraw stimulus? Then we would be in the fourth situation, a stagflationary period of high inflation and low growth where everything does badly except perhaps gold.
No matter what inflation does, the economy is likely to soften, which means that soaring commodities are likely to fall back to earth. I would advise against holding a lot of them. I'd also suggest shifting away from higher volatility stocks in favour of more stable, dividend-paying ones. As preparation for the third scenario, you should look at convertible bonds, preferably of shorter maturities, while leavening your portfolio with a dash of gold as insurance against the fourth scenario.
It's not exactly a paint-by-numbers investment strategy, but it's close. Just the thing for these volatile times.

Following a 74-66 victory over Lamar on Thursday night, Middle Tennessee head coach Kermit Davis said All-Sun Belt forward Desmond Yates is on track for a timely return to the lineup after undergoing knee surgery the week before the season started.
"(Yates) is progressing really well," Davis said. "They have penciled maybe Belmont (December 8th) as the game he will be ready for. He was kind of wanting (to play against UAB on December 2nd) but I think that's his goal right now is to be ready for the Belmont game."
"He was in the pool (Thursday) and is going to start getting on the floor on Sunday, doing some jogging, shooting and working out some. We talked about it today and I think Belmont is kind of the target date."
Without Yates in the lineup, MT has opened the season with a 2-2 record, winning a pair of home games and dropping two road games.
Davis called his team "a work in progress" after the win over Lamar, a game the Raiders prevailed in despite some inconsistent play.
Davis expects that will continue to be the case when Yates gets back in the lineup and the team has to re-adjust to having its best offensive player on the floor.
If he is able to return in time to face Belmont, the Raiders will have Yates on the floor for four games before the team opens Sun Belt Conference play at New Orleans on December 31st.
"When Boogie comes back it will be a work in progress too, but I think he is going to have two or three good weeks before league play starts and he'll be really ready to go," Davis said.

what symptoms are you having now?
I have sever sinus headache, so swollen inside nasal cavity that mucous accumulates in my throat and I spit it out.
I cant answer the ques regarding rating your service b/c i dont have an answer yet.
thats right, you need to rate my service only after my answer
in this case, you need not worry
the doctor only wants to know the bacteria involved
and to change your antibiotic if necessary depending on the sensitivity report
there would not be any other reason at all, let me reassure you
you need to take the antibiotics as prescribed
and see your doctor after two days
if necessary he will change the antibiotics
dont worry, this must be a simple throat infection and getting treated in this way will give you relief
Are you satisfied with my answer? Please remember to rate my service once you have all the information you need. Rating system is the row of faces below - click on a happy face to give a good rating. Thank you.
any further questions?
correction severe nor sever I dont know the bacteria involved,he took a culture which i asumed would reveal which bacteria it is . Why wouldnt he answer the ques I asked which is the call on friday , u might change antibiotics? he wouldnt answer.
dont get worried about that
did he see something in my throat that could reveal something omninous?
no no, if he saw something in your throat, he would have advised tests like putting a scope down your throat
but since he only advised a culture, it means that there is nothing more in your throat than an infection
and he probably didnt answer only because he didnt know whether antibiotics would need to be changed
I will rate your service but I wont know if u gave me the right advise until he calls me friday . He stuck the instument used to culture my throat , down my throat and something else deep into teh sinus cavity .
that was for examination only
dont worry, if he had seen something then he would have advised a biopsy not a culture

ALMOST a decade ago, comedian Dave Gorman travelled the world to find people who share his name.
His travelogue-turned Arthurian quest got him the hit TV show Are You Dave Gorman?
Gorman got his idea when he noticed that a football manager shared his name.
Now John Stormont has had a similar notion – sort of.
He was inspired to search for namesakes after someone contacted him on the social networking website Facebook.
The message said: "You and I have the same name, isn't that funny?"
But unlike Gorman, John is making life slightly easier by not limiting his hunt to fellow John Stormonts.
Anyone with Stormont as their surname can join his Facebook group, the Stormont Clan.
He aims to recruit a Stormont army while tracing the history of the name.
And one day he hopes to organise a reunion – on the steps of Stormont.
In February, John, who grew up in Yorkshire, used Facebook to issue the call to everyone who shares his surname to join the 'Stormont Clan'.
He's already signed up 122 members to the tribe, which now has its own logo and family crest.
He said: "It just came to me as a way to reach out and connect.
"In just a few days, I had 50 people with the surname sign up to my Stormont Clan. It gives you a real sense of belonging."
The new Stormont army has enlisted students, soldiers and a huge range of professionals from across the globe, including Australia, America, Canada, England and Scotland.
They have posted pictures of themselves pointing to Stormont Street signs across the globe.
But even though Northern Ireland holds the world's most famous Stormonts, not one person from the Province has joined.
Maybe it's because in the last phone book issued for the whole of Ulster, there is not one listing for the surname.
And the name search website, Yournotme.com, claims there are only 174 Stormonts across the UK.
John said: "The rarity of the name in Northern Ireland, despite Stormont Estate being there, is the reason I want a real-life reunion there.
"Hopefully it will draw any Stormonts there are in the Province out of the woodwork."
The origin of the name Stormont is uncertain.
Various linguistic theories claim a Scandanavian, French or Medieval derivation, while historical records place it in Scotland.
Mystery also surrounds the naming of our own Stormont Estate.
Some claim it is derived from a Viking or Scottish name – others say the site was once referred to as Storm-Mount to describe its exposed location on the south-west face of the Holywood Hills.
The latter would seem more probable, as historians say an area called Stormont less than 30 miles from the city of Perth in Scotland got its name from the Viking or Scandinavian words 'stor', meaning big or strong, and 'mont', meaning hill or mouth.
Either way, the uncertainty has spurred John on to use his mission to trace his family roots.
"I have Stormonts going back on my dad's side, and I'd like to know once and for all where we come from," he said.
So far the group has discovered a Stormont tradition to call first born males William John Stormont, which has happened for the past five generations in some cases.
There is also a discussion board on the website which found that since initial emigration from Ireland around the 1700s, Stormonts now live as far afield as Princeton Indiana, Southwest Michigan and Cedarville, Ohio.
The Stormont Clan page also has a link to another group – "Never Met a Stormont I Wasn't Related To" - which aims to trace distant relations.
To find the tribe, log onto http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/group.php?gid=127001140633, or search for "Stormont Clan" on Facebook.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Jimmie Johnson said Hendrick Motorsports doesn't turn in rival competitors for cheating and did not rat out Brad Keselowski and Penske Racing last week at Texas Motor Speedway.
The five-time Cup champion responded to insinuations this week that because Hendrick cars were parked next to the Penske cars in the Texas garage last week that one of its employees tipped off NASCAR inspectors about potential rules violations in the rear suspension of the Keselowski and Joey Logano cars.
"The Hendrick group and the 48 team (of mine) did not rat out the Penske cars," Johnson said Friday at Kansas Speedway. "There are two decisions teams are faced with … when the team sees something.
"One, they go home and they try to adapt it to their car and see if they can make it work. Or they go on the (NASCAR) truck and say something. We don't say something. We're a company built on performance."
MORE: Penske penalties | Pockrass: Things look bad for Brad | Keselowski vows to fight
The Keselowski and Logano teams are appealing penalties by NASCAR, which docked each driver 25 points, fined the crew chiefs $100,000 and suspended the team's competition director as well as both crew chiefs, both car chiefs and both lead engineers.
Keselowski tweeted a response Friday that indicated that his team did not care whether it was turned in to NASCAR or not and believes it did not violate any rules.
Media- I'm missing something here, who cares if a team "ratted us out"Clearly we felt like the parts were legal to begin with...#LetItGo— Brad Keselowski (@keselowski) April 19, 2013
Last year, Keselowski noted that Hendrick teams, among others, were much more advanced than Penske in working with the rear suspension of the cars. He added that Penske wasn't pushing the limits of the rulebook — and maybe it should.
After the Penske teams had their rear-end housings and parts and pieces of their cars confiscated just prior to the Texas race, Keselowski lashed out at NASCAR for targeting the Penske teams.
Keselowski's comments from last year also added to the theory that maybe Hendrick was involved. Johnson said Keselowski is learning that sometimes it might be better to bite his lip rather than spout off an angry opinion.
"Brad is a huge talent, but as we all know, Brad will say things," Johnson said. "When you're in this sport long enough, you learn when you need to be careful.
"No team is immune to issues. … You just do your thing and there's no need to spout off what other people are up to. There's been a few lessons that's Brad has learned along the way this year as when to say something."
As a five-time Cup champion whose crew chief has a history of being in NASCAR's doghouse, Johnson knows the microscope on championship teams. His team won an appeal last year after NASCAR penalized it for what NASCAR officials said were illegal C-posts taken prior to Daytona 500 qualifying.
"When you have success on your side, the viewpoint from everybody — NASCAR, other teams — gets a lot more intense," Johnson said. "The best officiating in the garage area has always been your neighbor."
NASCAR legend Richard Petty, the owner of Richard Petty Motorsports, said the attitude in the garage has changed about ratting out other teams.
The seven-time Cup champion said it used to be that teams just went and copied what other teams were doing.
"Undoubtedly somebody told on them," Petty said. "It had been through inspection two or three times and hadn't been caught.
"Anytime we saw anybody doing anything on their car (back in the 1970s and 1980s), we didn't tell them and none of the crowd that we worked with told NASCAR what the other guy was doing. They'd go home and look at it and try to do a better job at it even though it might not be legal."
Johnson noted that Formula One teams now have more of an open garage system because officials there saw how it worked in NASCAR to keep an even playing field.
"We're a company that tries to understand the rulebook as close as we can to the law," Johnson said. "Sure, we've had our issues with it, but that's racing.
"It's been that way since Day 1 of racing. … In no way shape or form did anybody from the 48 car walk into that (NASCAR) truck and say anything."
And many believe that it really doesn't matter if a team is turned in or if NASCAR finds the violation on its own.
"Who cares how you get caught?" said Michael Waltrip Racing's Clint Bowyer. "If you're cheating, if you're doing wrong, it doesn't matter what you're doing, it's wrong. … If you're cheating, you're eventually going to get caught."

Auckland police seek child abductor
Police are looking for a man who tried to abduct three children in Mt Roskill.
On December 9 the man followed the trio before stopping his car and telling the eight-year-old and 14-year-old girls, who were walking along Stoddard Rd with their younger brother, to get into his car.
When they refused, he grabbed the youngest girl by the arm but her sister intervened and they were able to escape.
The man got back into his car and drove off along May Rd towards Richardson Rd.
He is described as possibly Indian, about 30-years-old, of average height and medium build.
He was wearing a light blue long-sleeved business shirt with dark blue stripes, black pants and sunglasses.
Anyone with information about the incident or who the man is, should contact Detective Matthew Welch at Avondale Police on 09 820 5776 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
