You, Never? Did the Kenosha Kid?
Griese played the entire 4th last Sunday.
Griese came into the Seattle game with 6 minutes remaining in the game.
Griese came in the game with 7 minutes remaining in the game against the Bears.
And during all of that time Griese threw 5 passes. Because all they were doing was running the ball to kill the clock. So even if Grossman would have stayed in the game his numbers would not have been much different, because the game situations called for running the ball and killing the clock.
Keep it real man.
Although we still need to keep focusing on improving the defense.

Man you nailed it square on the head.
And I could say the exact same thing about the Colts without Manning.
No you couldnt..... because I aint too sure we would win the division without him....
You may be right, as two of the five worst teams in football also play in the AFC South. But in spite of Houston and Tennessee, Jacksonville is a legit team, unlike the collective terrible-ness of GB, Detroit, and Minnesota.
Yes, I'm putting Oakland as the sixth-worst team, and that might be the nicest compliment they get all year.
Why do the things that we treasure most, slip away in time
Till to the music we grow deaf, to God's beauty blind
Why do the things that connect us slowly pull us apart?
Till we fall away in our own darkness, a stranger to our own hearts
And life itself, rushing over me
Life itself, the wind in black elms,
Life itself in your heart and in your eyes, I can't make it without you
reading your comments in this thread Jay shows me that you put alot of bias in your opinions about football. I too never really thought the Bears were that great, but Clark Haggans and Joey Porter are better than Urlacher? Give me a break. Just imagine how good Urlacher would be with the freedom of a 3-4 outside linebacker. Urlacher can play pass coverage pretty damn well and he definetly has the speed to rush the passer. I highly doubt Clark Haggans could play MLB in a 4-3 with nearly as much effectivness as Urlacher.
How could you at any point in the season not see the Raiders as one of the 5 worst teams in the league?
And is Tennesee worse than Cleveland? I'd take Houston over Cleveland. But it seems to me you overrate Cleveland because they are in your Steelers division. It makes you feel that the Steelers are tougher because they have to face 3 "tough" teams twice a year. I'm sorry but the Steelers are no longer world champs, they're nothing but an 8-8 non-playoff team.
Yeesh, Tennessee and Texas both improved a heck of a lot from October to December, and Cleveland fell apart. At that time - in early October - they'd played competively against NO, Baltimore and Carolina.
As for moving Haggans inside, yeah I agree he'd suck as either a MLB, RILB, or LILB. He's not big enough, for one thing. Thank God we've got Farrior (who was pretty damn good in a 4-3 for the Jets although he's in decline now) and Foote - who gets no attention whatsoever from the opposing offenses so he's usually free to make more tackles than our other LBs but isn't really "better" than them) at the ILB positions. If Farrior wasn't getting old, I'd take him over Urlacher as an ILB in a 3-4 in a heartbeat.
In fact, I don't think Urlacher would be especially good in a 3-4. He needs to be able to cover the entire field from sideline to sideline but most 3-4 LBs play vertically. I think he's better suited for a 4-3, anyway.
Now, the appropriate question would be, what if he played behind a NT or DT like Casey Hampton that is always double-teamed or triple-teamed? Because that has a lot to do with why Pittsburgh's zone-blitz defense sets up its linebackers to make so many run stops in the offensive backfield, or pick the hot lane for a blitz, or the other things that those guys generally do quite well to get their defense off the field quickly.
(That's one of the things I don't like about the Cover-2, its not really designed for the defense to make drive-stopping plays, and since they don't stop drives it allows for certain players to end up with huge "tackle" stats because they get more opportunities to make tackles.)
As the season progressed, Hagans didn't play as well from October - when those comments were made - through the end of the season as he did during our SuperBowl run, but back in October he had quietly become our second best defensive player other than Troy. I think Joey Porter started showing his age, and I only expect him to play in Pittsburgh one more year.
And as for the Raiders, our offense couldn't make any tackles against them when Ben threw them the ball, so I better pick my words carefully. When your team outgains them 360 to 98 in total yards but still loses, something else is wrong. Our team had 23 giveways and a +7 turnover margin the SuperBowl season, and 37 giveaways and a -8 turnover margin last season. If you aren't paying attention to the math, our takeaways were essentially unchanged, and the all those damn giveaways are the reason why we watched the playoffs instead of taking our 6-2 over the last eight into the playoffs. Unlike in 2005, our "streak" got started one week too late.
Why do the things that we treasure most, slip away in time
Till to the music we grow deaf, to God's beauty blind
Why do the things that connect us slowly pull us apart?
Till we fall away in our own darkness, a stranger to our own hearts
And life itself, rushing over me
Life itself, the wind in black elms,
Life itself in your heart and in your eyes, I can't make it without you

ALRESFORD civic chiefs are going back to square one as they struggle with drawing up plans for how the town can evolve over the next 20 years.
A packed meeting last night (WED) heard how the town council was calling for the public to help it draw up ideas on how space can be found for 4-500 homes up to 2031.
But many of the 150-strong audience at Alresford Recreation Centre were sceptical about the exercise as they fear the council is still wedded to controversial plans it proposed last year for houses on farmland off Sun Lane. Perins School and businesses from The Dean would relocate there. Those ideas were roundly slated at a public meeting last May.
Janet Barker said: "Why is the council still proposing plans rejected by the whole room (last May)?They cannot seem to see that they are making a mistake. It's amateurish."
City councillor Ernie Jeffs denied there was a fait accompli and conceded there should have been more consultation before any plans were drawn up. "We made a mistake in the past. We are starting again."
Steve Opacic, senior city council planner, said Alresford needed to grow by 4-500 homes by 2031 otherwise the number of young people would decline and Alresford would become increasingly lederly and middle class.
"Where will the people live who you need to run your nurseries and play schools?"
Many in the audience would like to see a 'Neighbourhhod Plan' produced because townspeople would have the chance to vote on it in a referendum.
But town councillors said at the moment they preferred to work with the city council. A neighbourhood plan would costs some £50,000.
Draft plans will be produced by September with a formal public consultation in late 2013-early 2014.
See next week's Hampshire Chronicle for more on this story.

CLASSICAL MUSIC; 'Elektra' Complex at the Met
By KENNETH FURIE;
Published: March 22, 1992
A friend who likes to get value for his operatic dollar has a problem with Richard Strauss's "Elektra." Why, he wonders, should he settle for a mere 100 minutes of opera, when for the same price he could see, say, the many hours of Wagner's "Parsifal"?
Fortunately, audiences have generally made peace with the unusual length of "Elektra," which Thursday evening receives its third-ever Metropolitan Opera production, directed by Otto Schenk, with Hildegard Behrens in the title role. ("Elektra" didn't reach the Met until 1932 -- almost 24 years after its Dresden premiere.) "Salome," with which the 40-year-old Strauss had established his operatic mastery four years earlier, is about the same length -- perhaps his idea of the limit for such brutally intense material.
And make no mistake, the subject matter is brutal. In music of considerable violence, Elektra and Chrysothemis, daughters of the murdered king Agamemnon, scream at each other; Elektra and her mother, Klytamnestra, subtly and unsubtly abuse each other; Elektra and Chrysothemis shout some more; brother Orest returns and butchers their father's murderers -- first their mother, then their loutish stepfather, Aegisth; Elektra dances on Agamemnon's grave and dies.
From the performers' standpoint, "Elektra" presents more than an evening's worth of difficulties. They're so considerable, in fact, that the prospects for meeting them and dealing substantively with the material are dim. And it happens that most of Strauss's operas have a similarly buried identity. Which may be partly why they aren't often credited with their true depth, and why despite the high regard in which he is held, he is undeservedly ranked below the opera elite: Mozart, Wagner, Verdi.
To see how this process works, "Elektra" will serve nicely as a "typical" Strauss opera, even though the operas seem too varied to admit of any "type." The first point is that the performance difficulties aren't capricious but are directly related to its content.
Yes, inhuman demands are made on the singers. The title role really has no counterpart for the required combination of top-to-bottom power, stamina, flexibility, stamina, tonal beauty and, oh yes, stamina. Once Elektra enters, she gets no relief until her dance of death. Chrysothemis calls for a dramatic soprano of almost equal vocal endowment, stinting only in long-term stamina. The remaining "principal" characters, Klytamnestra, Orest and Aegisth, with only a scene apiece, are hardly easier to cast well. Then, if any sense is to be made of the treacherous opening scene of the serving maids, five more women's voices of principal caliber are needed.
And yes, extreme demands are made on the orchestra, beginning with its disposition. Strauss asks for 110-plus players, including first, second and third violins (eight each) and first, second and third violas (six each).
But the extremity of these demands is directly related to the extremity of the situation in the household left behind by Agamemnon. If the harmonic language is pushed to, or beyond, the limits of tonality, it's because the characters are pushed to, or beyond, the limits of endurance. Strauss uses these resources to dramatize the inner pressures and conflicts of this family tragedy, making it powerfully and painfully personal.
Almost needless to say, the inner drama doesn't provoke much discussion. It's generally true with Strauss operas that what's really original and important doesn't get discussed. Discussion of "Elektra" tends to consist of readings from the shock meter: how shocking the opera was in 1909 (oh, very), how shocking it is now (still very? not so?).
The world of "Elektra" is indeed a world gone crazy, but crazy within a carefully defined context of normality. It's a different kind of craziness even from that of "Salome." While both operas take as their subject obsession, the obsessions of "Salome" are of the recreational, or elective, sort. The characters of "Elektra," by contrast, are in the grip of mandatory obsessions.
The opera is a clash between competing philosophical responses to the death of Agamemnon. There is, first, the pragmatic philosophy held by pretty much everyone except Elektra and the Fifth Maid: Life Goes On. And then there is the philosophy of Elektra: Sez Who?
The clash becomes noisy, not because the opera wants to be noisy, but because it can't help itself. There is no way of accommodating Elektra's insistence on vindication for the rightful world order, the world of her father.
Strauss took pains to create the underlying reality of which the events of the opera are such a monstrous distortion. There are obvious places where even the most casual observer can hear the "normal" world bubbling through, when the layers of dissonance dissipate:
* the Fifth Maid's stirring and courageous defense of Elektra in the opening-scene gossipfest (a scene that could have wonderful reality if a director would find real occupation for the maids -- a task during which such a conversation could be logical and inevitable);

I was recently given a S&W Model 916A 12 gauge pump shotgun with a 3 inch chamber (previously owned but in never-fired mint condition)that I would like to use for home defense. I own many rifles, pistols and revolvers, but never owned a shotgun before and know nothing whatsoever about them -- and I mean nothing. For example, can I use a 2 3/4" shell, or are there 3" shells I am supposed to use. Also, what kind of load should I use. I'm not overly concerned with a big spread as I am confident that I'll hit what I aim at, but I also don't want anything that has too much penetration as to go through my kids bedroom walls. I still want decent stopping power though. Any thoughts, insights or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Anthony.

In this week's Labcast, internationally recognized sales expert Jill Konrath, sits down to discuss the secrets behind the success of her own popular videos and to provide tips for companies hoping to boost customer engagement with video e-mail marketing campaigns of their own.
Labcast 82_ Jill Konrath on Video E-mail Marketing
Click here for Jill Konrath's 5 Keys to Successful Video Email Marketing Campaigns, or continue reading the full transcript below:
Kevin: Hello, and welcome to the OpenView Labcast. I'm Kevin Cain, and today I'm joined by Jill Konrath to talk about using video in email marketing campaigns. For those of you who don't know Jill, she's the author of two best-selling sales books. Selling to Big Companies, her first, was selected as a must-read by Fortune magazine. Her most recent, Snap Selling, soared to the number one sales book within hours of its release.
Hey, Jill. Thanks so much for joining us today. How's it going?
Jill: It's going really well. It's a great day here in Minnesota.
Kevin: Well, as I mentioned in the introduction, what we're talking about today is using videos effectively in email marketing campaigns. The genesis for all of that, really, is all the videos I've seen you share with your customers in your weekly emails. I wanted to ask you, why do you elect to use videos with your emails to customers? What kind of advantage has that provided?
Jill: There are several reasons why I'm doing it. One of them is that I like to be at the leading edge of some of these things, and not be a trailer. If you're providing videos early on in the game, they do stand out more from what the competitors are doing. I think secondarily, and much more important from my perspective, is that it allows me to connect directly with people. I am the face of my company. They need to feel that I am somebody that they could bring in to work within their organization. Using a video, I am actually connecting with them on a deeper level than I could with an article. They see me and they can connect with me. That's what's important.
Kevin: What kinds of results have you seen with those emails using video? Are you finding that your customers are more engaged, or that the open rates for your emails have been higher?
Jill: The open rates for my emails have stayed about the same. What I'm doing, though, is I'm getting a lot more people going to my website. They are increasing the amount of comments and interaction that I'm getting on my website. So, it's making a difference that way. It is also making a difference in terms of when people hire me. I get hired to speak and train. They're very comfortable with who I am. I've already been pretty much pre-sold by the time they contact me. It's not a function of, "Would she do a good job for our organization?" It's a function of, "Is she available?" or, "Is she affordable?" which is a whole different ballgame than you normally play in this world.
Kevin: Sure. What tips would you give small companies that are trying to create videos for themselves that are going to allow them to be really successful at doing that?
Jill: I think there are a couple things I'd really suggest. Number one, I'm not a technical person at all, and it was really important for me to find some people to work with on this. I don't have the time nor the talent to do any video editing on my own, or to even upload things to YouTube. That's not my cup of tea. I have a 16-year-old neighborhood boy who takes my videos afterwards. He's actually come in and he's set up my office as a studio and bought me the lights. He actually ordered all the equipment for me because he likes doing school videos. So, I get a resource to help me do it.
I also have a professional resource to do some of the other videos. I have a studio in my office, and I also go to a studio of a videographer and he shoots a whole bunch at one time. You say, "What is the key to making them good?" First of all, I think there's one real important key is that you shoot a bunch of videos at the same time.
Kevin: Sure.
Jill: It's important for a couple reasons. First of all, you get on a roll and you get better as you get into the videos. Secondarily, it is a real productivity saver. If you think about only shooting two or three videos at a time, you always have. . . If you're planning to do a series, you always have a whole bunch hanging over your head. It's like a burden you carry. I really think that people should think of, "How can I create 15 to 20 videos at one time," and then roll them out, as opposed to, doing two or three right now and then do it again.
Kevin: I imagine that's a much more cost-effective strategy, as well. I mean, if you're using your neighbor, that's probably a pretty cheap resource, but if you're going to an actual film studio, as you mentioned you do for some videos, doing them in bulk is probably more effective.
Jill: Oh, it's far more cost effective to do a series of short, one to two minute, videos in bulk. You can do 30 in an afternoon easily.
Kevin: What are some of the key components that those videos need to include to be successful? Obviously, you want to have some sort of call to action, but are there other things that you're trying to always include to make sure that your videos are really achieving what you want them to achieve?
Jill: Well, it's interesting you say the call to action because I do have a slight call to action at the end. It's more just a link for people who don't know me to come to my website. I have that for when the videos are on YouTube and people discover me there. But, the reality of it is I'm just sharing information. My whole perspective on these videos is I'm here to give good information on the issues and challenges that my target market, which are sales people, entrepreneurs, consultants who are struggling to sell to corporate market, I'm here to give them good information. That's really been my primary focus on that kind of thing.
Kevin: When you've created those videos, obviously you send them an email, you mention them being on YouTube. Are there other ways that you use them socially, since that's really how people are consuming content these days?
Jill: When you say socially, are you talking about like through other channels, or what are you talking about?
Kevin: Exactly. Are you posting them to your Facebook page? Are they available on LinkedIn? Where else can people access all these videos you're doing?
Jill: Right. OK. First of all, when I send them out in my newsletter, it is a replication of what's already posted on my blogs. I post it on my blog because I want active websites and I want people to click to my website, not to YouTube.
Kevin: Sure.
Jill: In my newsletter I will say, "Here's the video. You can listen to it and click here." I drive them to my blog. Now I've got them in Jill's world where they're more likely to engage in other activities while they're there. Do I stop there? Absolutely not. They are on YouTube, that's where they're hosted, but every time I do something like that, I will tweet about it and I will share information primarily on LinkedIn. Those are my two primary channels where I let other people who don't know about it know that here's a new piece of content that you might find valuable. It deals with a specific challenge and I'll identify the challenge, like, "How to write an email prospect in the subject line," or "How to deal with people who only want to talk about price." I mean, those are issues that my clients face all the time.
Kevin: You had talked initially about wanting to be on the cutting edge of getting people content in the way that they want to consume it. Right now, that's video. Do you happen to have any sort of view of what that cutting edge vehicle might be in a couple years time? Any thoughts of where things might be headed?
Jill: That's a good question. I think it's going to be more video right now. I was just reading something on the airplane last night, coming back from Boston, about CEOs and how they're consuming a lot more information via video. They younger the CEO is, if they're under 40 video is highly rated whereas older people are not consuming nearly the same content. The other thing I really see, too, is the growth of communities where people are sharing and talking together.
Kevin: Sure. Jill, thanks so much for joining us today. We really appreciate your time. Before I let you go, can you just let our listeners know where they can find you online?
Jill: They can find me at Jill Konrath. That's Jill and the last name is Konrath, JillKonrath.com. They can see multiple uses of video throughout my website because I use it, not just in newsletters, but throughout my website to engage people on some of my major pages.
Kevin: Great. Jill, thanks so much for joining us today. We really appreciate your time.
Jill: My pleasure.

Compound Bow (or maybe Crossbow)

For deer hunting, the effective range on a crossbow is actually less than for a good compound. Crossbows are LOUD. Loud enough for a deer to "jump the string" on a long shot. An expert archer can reach out to 50 yds and beyond with a good compound. By the time a crossbow shot bolt reaches past about 30 yds, the deer has heard the shot and started to crouch for running away.
That being said, most archery shots are less than 30 yds anyway. And, like has already been mentioned, gaining a minimal degree of proficiency takes less time with a crossbow than a compound.
If you do decide on a compound, there are several things you must keep in mind. First is bow fit. Bows are like golf clubs in that they need to fit the user. What works for one shooter will not work for the next guy. You can't just order one off the internet an hope that it will work unless you've done some advance work to determine your drawlength requirements. Your best bet is a good archery proshop. Then, after you purchase the bow, there is a whole lot of adjustment to be made. Again, a good proshop will be your best friend.
Finally, there is technique. It is REALLY easy to start with bad form. Once you develop those bad habits they will be hard to break. For your first few hours of practice, you really do need a good mentor to get your form correct.

I do a lot of reviews and I look for differentiation – what makes this a better tablet than others?
The main differentiator is a deceptively simply thing – it uses a mini USB to charge the tablet (and for all other uses as well) instead of a more traditional, bulky 19 Volt notebook charger. This is great – at last the charger does not weigh more than the tablet.
Apart from that the ME400C specifications include:
- Intel Atom Z2760 1.8GHz dual core CPU (which provides respectable power for playing movies, word processing, spread sheets etc).
- 2GB/64GB/microSD and 32GB Asus WebStorage
- 10.1", 16:9, 1366x768, IPS scratch resistant Corning Fit Glass
- 2/8MP front/rear camera with 1080p video recording
- 802.11 N and Bluetooth 4
- G-Sensor, Gyroscope, Compass, GPS and NFC
- Dual speakers with SonicMaster technology
- 580g and 9.7mm thin
- 25 Wh batery for 9.5 hours claimed life (I got up to 7 hour in a travel situation).
The 290g keyboard is Bluetooth and needs to be separately charged. The sleeve adds 155g. It attaches magnetically to the bottom edge and the grip is a little tenuous - but it works.
These are premium specs for a device that is being sold for $449 at Office Works (keyboard and sleeve are additional $118). Micro USB charging is a really useful feature (share your phone charger).
Not to take anything away from this gem but the more I review tablets however the more I think prefer a hybrid design that more closely resembles a notebook or netbook. Invariably I end up using it in a notebook manner than a tablet but as a bonus this has a good keyboard.

Kenly teen was hanging out by tracks before being struck and killed by Amtrak train
Posted August 16, 2015
Kenly, N.C. — Kyle Joyner, 16, was hanging out with friends near the train tracks when he was struck and killed by an Amtrak train in Wilson County early Sunday, according to his stepmother.
Cindy Joyner was told by a sheriff's investigator that her stepson was messing around and throwing chairs at a friend's house when one of the chairs ended up on the train tracks. A freight train came barreling down the southbound tracks at the same time Kyle Joyner went to retrieve the chair.
"One train was coming by, and he didn't hear the other train," said Kyle Joyner's father, Dean Joyner.
"It didn't seem real and it doesn't seem real now," said Cindy Joyner. "It doesn't seem real."
Dean and Cindy Joyner were out of town when they received a call about the accident. The couple had gone to Virginia to celebrate the birth of Cindy Joyner's first grandchild. Kyle Joyner had stayed at home to hang out at his friend's house near the railroad tracks.
An Amtrak spokesperson said Sunday morning that train No. 98 hit Joyner in Kenly near the intersection of highways 301 and 581 at around 2:45 a.m. The train was headed to New York City- a place Kyle Joyner had dreamed of visiting one day.
"He wanted to do a lot of traveling and see the world mostly," said Cindy Joyner.
According to his father and stepmother, Kyle Joyner liked to fish, hunt and listen to music. He was also able to make his friends and family laugh.
Cindy Joyner, who knew Kyle Joyner for four years, said that she felt a close bond with him.
"I just feel like he's my son because I just connected with him," said Cindy Joyner. "[He was] hilariously funny, so smart, so a typical teenager, but not."
Friend Corey Clark said that the impact Kyle Joyner had on him extends beyond friendship.
"He was a very lovable person and it was too early for him," said Clark. "Words can't explain how he was and what he meant to me."

EV Smart Grid Integration
A Smart Grid is realized by overlaying a communications infrastructure on top of existing power system infrastructure. This communications network allows for bi-directional communication between a broader range of field devices and utility back-office operations. These new capabilities for monitoring and control enable grid operations to respond dynamically to real-time grid conditions and to make informed 'smart' decisions on the management of utility assets. The communications infrastructure also enables a new relationship to be realized with customers. Traditional customers can now be treated more as 'partners' who can be engaged in programs and incentives to moderate consumption and manage energy use within their own premises. The ability for customers and utilities alike to monitor and control loads enables Demand Response and Load Control (DRLC) and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) programs to extend to customer premises and customer assets such as smart appliances and electric vehicles.
Within the context of the Smart Grid, EVs and EV charge infrastructure become additional field devices able to participate in grid operations. EVs represent a special case of devices in that they can be viewed as a source of generation, load, or storage. Vehicles are also nomadic and may appear and disappear on the grid at different times and locations. Fixed EV charge infrastructure on the other hand, can play a role as the interconnection point for vehicles to the grid, or as a source of load that can be managed through the Smart Grid infrastructure. Understanding the options to use EVs as integral components of the grid therefore requires an understanding of the communications protocols and infrastructure that can enable EV and charge infrastructure connectivity from end-to-end.
Powertech is a leader in in Smart Grid interoperability testing and operates facilities which replicate the utility environment from field devices to back-office applications. This environment allows Powertech to support vehicle and device OEMs, energy service providers and utilities to test and evaluate EV interoperability solutions. Capabilities include:
- EV data collection and analytics(from vehicles or infrastructure)
- EV communications pathways validation (AMI, IP based, HAN, FAN, SCADA, Open Standards and others)

Mancini still bitter about Kompany red
Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini is adamant Vincent Kompany's challenge on Nani in Sunday's 3-2 FA Cup third round loss against Manchester United did not warrant a straight red card.
• Kompany appeal dismissed by FA
City saw their appeal of Chris Foy's decision to dismiss Kompany for a two-footed tackle on Nani at the Etihad Stadium rejected by the Football Association on Tuesday.
The Belgium international will now serve a four-match ban, starting with City's Carling Cup meeting against Liverpool on Wednesday, and Mancini remains frustrated by the absence of his skipper.
Mancini said: "In 30 years I have never seen a sending off for a tackle like this. For me there was no danger. If there was danger, Nani was there, he was the player near the ball. He would have said something about it. He didn't say anything.
"Last week I watched three or four players in the Premier League who made a tackle worse than Vinny, with the same referee. He did nothing. No yellow card. Nothing."

Bizarre Diamond Jubilee tribute to the Queen spotted on Lamborghini bonnet
The wave of patriotism sweeping the nation ahead of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations appears to have reached extreme levels by the look of this unique Lamborghini tribute to Her Majesty.
Spotted in the affluent Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, the neon yellow sports car attracted plenty of attention parked outside the exclusive five star Kensington Garden Hotel in London.
It wasn't just the colour attracting people's attention in the spring sunshine however, but the gaudy tribute to the Queen daubed across the bonnet of the fine Italian sports car.
One intrigued blogger posted the picture online, observing: 'I'm thinking if I had that much money for that sort of car I'm not sure I'd want to stick a photo of anyone on the bonnet.
'But then it is Jubilee week and it is a photo of the Queen.'
The picture appears to be of Her Royal Highness sitting next to Qaboos bin Said Al Said, the Sultan of Oman.
The Queen met the 71-year-old on a visit to the Gulf in 2010 to mark the 40th anniversary of his rule.
And just maybe he has decided return the favour with a tribute of his own in her Diamond Jubilee year.
Do you know the mystery man or woman who owns the extravagant vehicle? Leave a comment below.

President Obama is sending a bill to Congress today that would grant a new way to eliminate earmarks congressional spending bills. The Reduce Unnecessary Spending Act of 2010 would enable presidents to sift carefully through congressional spending bills and send them back with items vetoed. Congress would then give a vote on the new version of the bill. The new measure would be less powerful than a line-item veto, which allows a president to cross out an item and have the change go into effect immediately.
Doug Elliot of the Brookings Institution said he'd be surprised if Congress went along with the new measure, which he noted would increase presidential authority.

After showering partner Cheryl Burke with a raft of gifts on her 26th birthday (the diamond heart necklace has the tongues wagging), Chad Ochocinco logged his highest score of 25 on ABC's Dancing With The Stars in all but wrapping up another shot next week.
The Ocho finally sold his most harshest critic this side of Marvin Lewis when judge Len Goodman gave him a nine for the waltz because of his "fluid arms."
"I don't know why, but for some reason tonight, it clicked. I was able to flip the switch," said The Ocho a few hours after the show. "For the first time I felt like I do on the field. I had that same swagger. That same confidence. It's about time. I've been working so hard, I feel like it's been paying off."
Goodman declared that he will remember "May 3, 2010" as the day Ochocinco became a contender.
"To hear that from a professional dancer was big thrill," Ochocinco said. "I've got my competitive juices going."
If it was a game?
8-137, 2 TDs.
And he is thinking about football, too. He says he's getting up at 5 a.m. to lift and run. He got a text from Lewis telling him No. 1 pick Jermaine Gresham looked good at rookie camp. Ochocinco says he's still on last year's sked, when he came into the on-field workouts in mid June.

Whether Jim Greer's resignation as chairman of the Republican Party of Florida on Tuesday is the right move for the party is up to Republicans to judge. Whether he should be replaced by a member of the Florida Legislature, as Gov. Charlie Crist and legislative leaders telegraphed, is a broader question affecting all Floridians.
Sen. John Thrasher of St. Augustine likely would be an effective party chairman. But the longtime Tallahassee insider should make a choice between his public office or a partisan leadership position. To hold both jobs simultaneously would pose a conflict and inject more high-stakes politics into nearly any piece of legislation.
Thrasher won the District 8 seat in a special election in October after the death of Republican Sen. Jim King. He is a close ally of former Gov. Jeb Bush, a former House speaker and formerly a prominent lobbyist. Top Republicans said Tuesday that Thrasher's esteem among rank-and-file Republican activists prompted his emergence as the likely successor to Greer, a controversial leader and Crist ally who angered many of the party's biggest donors and long-time leaders over his spending.
Senate President Jeff Atwater on Tuesday appointed Thrasher to the party's executive committee, a necessary step if Thrasher is to be elected chairman in a Feb. 20 vote by that body. But Atwater's action is just the first example of the potential conflicts that would await Thrasher. Atwater is running for chief financial officer and will expect the state party to help his campaign. Was Thrasher's appointment to the executive committee Atwater's first attempt at currying favor? What about less prominent Republican lawmakers? How willing would they be to challenge Thrasher on a piece of legislation as he decides how to dole out campaign funds?
And how effective would Thrasher be working with Senate Democrats, since any deviation from hard-line Republican positions as a senator could undermine his authority as party chairman? The Senate has grown more partisan in recent years, but it remains the best venue for collegial, bipartisan consensus in the state capital.
Then there is Thrasher's conflict as chairman of the Senate Ethics and Elections Committee. The post requires him to shepherd all legislation that impacts how political parties and campaigns operate. Whose interests will he represent in that role? Those of citizens who are best served when campaign finance is as transparent as possible? Or political parties, which prefer less disclosure and thrive on unlimited contributions?
Florida Republicans, including Thrasher, should know better. Former U.S. Sen. Mel Martinez simultaneously served as general chairman of the Republican National Committee. He lasted just nine months as RNC chairman and saw his Senate job approval ratings with Floridians plummet.
Former legislators have led both state political parties, but no incumbent legislator in years has simultaneously served as party chairman. Thrasher may be a good choice to lead Florida Republicans, and he is a formidable, well-prepared legislator. But he should choose one job or the other.

Picture this - you're sitting around in your living room having a few drinks and socializing with friends and acquaintances. It's a mixed crowd, and there are a few peeps there you wouldn't mind seeing at least partially naked, maybe kissing up on a little bit. It starts to get late and people are thinking about going home but you realize there's an electricity in the air that's unmistakable. Instead of letting them take off, you pull out a risque party game, dim the lights, and proceed to get frisky.
Sounds great, doesn't it?
Unfortunately, those are not the conditions we had for review Roll'em Show'em, a dice and card-based game that promises a shot at that very situation. What we had was a group of drunk, surly and (more or less) hetero male interns we'd conscripted for the sole purpose of road testing the game. What can we say? All the chicks bailed on us for some reason. So what did we think about Roll'em Show'em under these decidedly non-optimal conditions? Read on to find out.
The Game Play:
Basically, there are two stacks of cards, six white and six blue, that include the numbers on the dice. These cards are divvied up among the players, and then someone rolls two dice (you guessed it - one white, one blue). The people with the cards showing the numbers on the task dice then must perform a task that is dictated by a roll of a third die called the Big Black Task Die.
This die, true to its name, is big and black and has icons representing different tasks on it, such as doing a shot, kissing another player or removing an article of clothing. You go around the circle rolling the dice, performing the tasks, and hopefully getting drunk and naked, until there's only one player left standing. That person also gets the fistful of money that was in the pot.
Oh, didn't we mention the money? There are certain tasks and aspects of this game that require the use of cash, including paying in when the dice tell you to. The makers of this game have nicely included some fake Monopoly-type money in the game case but we recommend you use real money for reasons that will become clear later.
The Learning Curve:
If you're introducing a game at a party for the first time, complicated rules and long, drawn-out explanations can be the kiss of death. Luckily, Roll'em Show'em had an extremely short learning curve, and even the dimmest of our interns was able to piece together what he should do at any given time. We picked up the game, doled out the cards and money, grabbed the dice and started playing in a matter of minutes with little or no explaining - a true plus when you have a few pops in you.
The Fun Factor:
Here's where it gets interesting. We have a feeling the interns would've been much more invested and had a much better time if there had been a real chance to see actual breasts. As it stood, they would just say "this is where I would ask someone to take off their shirt" with a faraway look in their eyes. Still, the gameplay itself was fast and furious and everyone was interested in the game even without the possibility of cheesecake, thanks most likely to the "Do a Shot" side of the Big Black Task Die.
Also, remember earlier when we said you'll want to play with real money? This is where we tell you why. The mechanics of the game generally call for only two people to be doing a task at any given time, and since we had seven people sitting around the table it left some of the others with little to do while the tasks were being performed. The money came in handy when people started doing their own little side bets about whether the tasks would actually be completed. We also thought it might be helpful to let players pay their way out of challenges they didn't want to do, but maybe that's just because we were a bunch of dudes who didn't really want to kiss each other.
Even more interesting was the idea of starting a side pot and bidding to get people to perform a task. For example, if the dice says a player should take off their shirt and they're reluctant to do so, it would be interesting if other players were able to add money to the side pot to coax them to do it. When you play yourself we recommend you think about using this mechanic to keep everyone invested in the game.
The Verdict:
All in all we had a good time, even if our demographics were skewed a bit male. The game was different from what we're used to playing, and it also offered a chance to possibly one day see a girl naked. That's worth the price of admission any day. You can pick up a copy of Roll'em Show'em at the company's website for $39.95; the price seemed a bit stiff if we were planning to buy it for ourselves, but we think the game would make a great gift for the college student or perennial bachelor in your life. And what's a few bucks when you're helping your buddy have a chance to see some boobies?

John Piper is proud to stand next to N.T. Wright in proclaiming the cosmic scope of the gospel (88). But Piper believes that Wright has missed the essence of what makes the lordship of Christ good news – the fact that individual sinners can be forgiven because of Christ's work on the cross.
In perhaps the most illuminating misstep in his argument, Piper quotes from 1 Corinthians 15:1-3, hoping to show that the crucial three words (that Jesus was crucified for our sins) are the climax and essence of the good news (89).
Unfortunately, Piper stops at verse 3! The gospel that Paul received and that was preached to the Corinthians (by which salvation comes [v. 1] – notice in this chapter that "the gospel" and "salvation" are not equivalents for Paul, as Wright contends) climaxes not with the three words "for our sins," but with the three verses that Piper fails to mention – three verses that show the climax and crucial part of "the gospel" as being the Resurrection of Christ. (In fact the entire chapter is devoted to breaking down "this gospel" in terms of the resurrection.)
Piper goes on to say:
"Without at all insisting that Paul always announced the truth of justification in every gospel message, I would still want to insist from Paul's own words that his announcement of the death and resurrection and lordship of Jesus became good news in Paul's preaching precisely because in some way he communicated that believing in this Christ brought about justification (90)."
With all due respect to John Piper, I'm afraid he is contradicting himself. If justification is the crucial aspect of the "gospel," how can Piper say that Paul did not announce it in every gospel message? According to Piper, a sermon without the doctrine of justification does not qualify as preaching "the gospel."
I believe that Piper's thorough scholarship has already alerted him to the fact that many of the sermons in Acts proclaim Christ's resurrection and lordship without articulating the doctrine of justification. Piper doesn't want to go so far as to say that the apostles are not preaching "the gospel," so he adds qualifying statements like the one quoted above.
Wright's insistence on seeing the "gospel" message as a message about Jesus for us is more exegetically plausible. The "gospel" as defined carefully in the New Testament is not primarily about how an individual gets saved. The gospel is a specific announcement about the crucified and risen Christ that then brings salvation of individual sinners.
If Piper is right (that "justification" makes the "gospel" good news), why didn't the early Church call Paul's epistles "Gospels?" After all, the epistles more clearly articulate and define justification than do Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.
Why did we begin calling the biographies of Jesus "Gospels," if not because "gospel" meant "a message about Jesus' life, death, resurrection and lordship?"
Let's ask the question another way: what is the doctrine that if not preached in a sermon disqualifies the sermon from being a "gospel message?" I would argue that if Jesus is not preached as the crucified and risen Lord of the world in a gospel presentation, then the presentation ceases to be "gospel." The message might be about personal forgiveness or a spiritual experience, but if it does not contain Paul's "gospel," then we have preached conversion instead of Christ.
In an ironic twist, I believe Piper (who has worked admirably for decades as a preacher and pastor who advocates a radical God-centeredness) is defining "the gospel" in a way that is less God-centered than Wright's! Wright keeps Jesus Christ and his rule front and center, and he will not allow anything, even our precious personal salvation upstage Jesus as the main part of the gospel message.
Now… should I be attacked for not believing in justification, let me say a couple of things in conclusion. If someone asked me to define "the gospel" the way Paul would define the gospel, I would be inclined to state very simply that the gospel is this: "Jesus of Nazareth has been crucified for our sins has been raised from the dead and is the Lord of the world."
If someone asked me to share "the gospel," then I would tell a longer story. Put quite simply, "the gospel" is not good news or bad news (or anything but puzzling news at all) unless it comes within an overarching narrative.
I would start at Creation. I would mention the Fall of humans into sin and slavery to evil. I would tell the story of God's chosen people Israel and the promises for deliverance and restoration. I would briefly tell the story of Jesus – culminating in his death and resurrection. I would proclaim "the gospel" of Jesus' resurrection and lordship within this overarching narrative. Then, I would bring in the doctrine of justification, urging the person to trust solely in Christ for salvation and forgiveness of sins and to become part of God's people, people who are saved from God's wrath and called to be agents for new creation in the world we live in.
Tomorrow, we look at Wright's view of justification and what determines our right standing before God.

Casino boat gets reality show, still owes county $500,000
Tue, 10 Apr 2012 22:01:53 GMT —
A Little River business is about to be the focus of a reality television show, but it's also being sued by Horry County.
Even though the county spokesperson Lisa Bourcier says the Sun Cruz/Aquasino casino boat owes the county more than $500,000, casino boat partner Robert Weisberg still plans to keep sailing.
"We're very very excited," said Weisberg. "They are going to produce it and present it at a convention of these shows in May to sell it to the networks."
April 14th and 15th, producers of the popular reality show, Pawn Stars, will shoot a pilot showing what life is like on a casino boat.
A TV show would increase tourism for the Grand Strand, said Weisberg.
"These reality shows have a lot of buzz to them. They produce a lot of merchandize sales, a lot of tourism."
In 2010, Sun Cruz signed an agreement that the casino would stay in business as long as it pays Horry County a $7 fee for each boat passenger.
Last year, Sun Cruz stopped paying.
"We're very very unhappy and I think everyone out there knows," said Weisberg. "Just by going up and down the Grand Strand, you can start the amount of illegal gambling that is going on."
Weisberg said, sweepstakes are the main reason the business is battling the lawsuit with the county. He considers the sweepstakes machines gambling, but sweepstakes businesses don't have to pay the admission fee.
Weisberg said if the county doesn't force those businesses to pay, his casino is not paying either.
"The excuse that they are giving is completely separate than what the agreement was," said Horry County spokesperson Lisa Bourcier. "Usually an agreement is between two parties, and if you want to change that agreement, it is up to both parties to agree to those changes. That did not happen and one party decided not to live up to their end of the deal, and that's where we are in a debate with them now."
Bourcier said Sun Cruz is breaching its contract.
"We do have another casino boat that has the exact same agreement. It was done with both parties and they are sticking to their agreement and sticking to their agreement and paying those funds," said Bourcier.
Weisberg said the county and his business plan to meet sometime next week to discuss a new agreement.
In the meantime, Sun Cruz and it's reality show will keep chugging along.
This weekend the casino boat will hold a slot machine and poker tournament to promote the reality show.

ABC News Jan Simmonds Reports: Responding to attacks made by former Gov. Mitt Romney, R-Mass., today in Concord, Giuliani Campaign Manager Michael DuHaime called Romney "a mediocre one term governor" who was trying to distract voters from his own weak record.
"Essentially what you are seeing is, I believe, a distraction," said DuHaime aboard a press bus following Giuliani this weekend. "… what you have is Governor Romney, who is essentially without much of a record. Essentially a mediocre one term governor, who didn't even run for re-election."
"What you see now is Romney is starting to talk about his record… it's not something he wants to talk about. So its attack, attack, attack," DuHaime later added.
The usually behind the scenes Campaign Manager went on to say that Romney was attacking his republican opponents because he could not defend or tout any of his own achievements.
"Governor Romney, almost every single day, is attacking somebody, usually its Mayor Giuliani," said DuHaime. "He has Governor Huckabee on his heels, he's attacking Governor Huckabee, he's attacked Fred Thompson… he's attacking somebody every single day. I just think it's a distraction. Clearly he's got more money than any other candidate. And with that he's throwing a lot of money around."
One of Romney's main criticisms of Giuliani was that he was throwing stones from a "glass house" regarding Romney's appointment of Massachusetts Supreme Court Judge Kathe Tuttman considering Giuliani's own situation with his former police commissioner, Bernard Kerik.
"I did note with interest yesterday that Mayor Giuliani decided to attack me on the basis of a judicial appointment," Romney said at a press avail in Concord, N.H., "I must admit that of all the people who might attack someone on the basis of an appointment. I thought he would be the last to do so."
"In a very different case, he (Giuliani) put somebody in place as commissioner who had a very questionable past and then recommended to the President of the United States that this person be made the Secretary of Homeland Security despite the fact that he at this point was under investigation," added Romney.
Responding to the Kerik comparison DuHaime said Giuliani has made it clear that he feels he made a mistake recommending Kerik to the White House.
"I think the Mayor has clearly stated his position of Commissioner Kerik. And has told you about the mistake he made about the appointment," said DuHaime. "Obviously Governor Romney, immediately, when somebody around him has issues, he immediately throws that person under the bus. Whether it is Senator Craig or this judge, anything that gets in the way of where he wants to go to during this campaign gets thrown under the bus."
With just under fifty days remaining until the first primary in the nation, it appears both campaigns have decided to increasingly go after the other, both believing they have an opportunity to score some points with the voters.

That's because those fans have been tested for several years and have proven to support so team so much no matter what.
All the other basketball fans in the Bay Area who couldn't handle the Warriors losing are now Warriors fans. That's why whenever the Lakers come to Oracle all of the Bay Area Lakers fans come out and fill half the arena and talk crap about their own hometown Warriors. It's annoying.
I was thinking of Raps fans too. But yes, fire forged fandom.
I meant to say they're now Lakers fans. I edited my post but you read it before I got to post it lol.
But yeah, Warriors had that streak of not making the Playoffs for 12 straight years, so I don't blame people in the Bay for not being able to handle that and deciding to root for the Lakers. What's annoying is that they decide to talk crap about their own hometown team.

|The first couple of moves off the starting chicken-head are the crux (although well protected by the first bolt). It eases up shortly after passing the first bolt, but remains engaging until the third bolt, where it rolls into 5.6/5.7. Personally, I think the crux moves are actually a little harder than Cheetah (also rated 5.11a).

The sequence through the crux has some really interesting movement with some serious friction. The route eases up considerably after the 2nd bolt and makes for a nice cruiser.
The bolts are fairly spaced and the upper runout is really hard to justify on a route that was obviously not bolted on lead. Doesn't matter if it's easy, there are no extra style points for artificially creating a R-rated route on rappel.

Dental and Oral Health (Seniors)
Tooth Loss in the Elderly
I care for an elderly individual, age 89, who is experiencing the loss of multiple teeth, multiple times, in a very short period. (5 teeth in 6 months)
This individual has never visited a dentist unless there was a problem and views cost to be all important.
Are dentures a practical for this situation? I am concerned about the stress on the individual to undergo the necessary extractions, etc.
Loss of teeth in this patient may indicate several oral heath problems, such as chronic destructive periodontics. This disease causes bone loss and destruction of gum fibers. Today removal of teeth can be done with least amount of discomfort, sometimes no discomfort at all. Dentures can be an option, but remember artificial teeth cannot match natural teeth in efficiency and comfort. After a period of adjustment to wearing a denture, this person will be able to live as normal as can be. Your most economical place to have this denture work done is the nearest dental school to you.
