A One-Man New York City Burger Tour UPDATED 1-28-10 including write-ups & Favorites list!
The idea to attempt this came after reading a post by Stephen Rushmore Jr. He had heard about two new burger spots in NYC and I made it to both as part of this report and then it just sort of snowballed from there! This took place over roughly a 6 month period from May 2009 - November 2009 and all of the burgers were ordered medium unless indicated otherwise. My goal was to find a really great cheeseburger at 5 or 6 places in the city; the kind of cheeseburger that I would not only want to run back to but would gladly pay for again and again and happily recommend to my friends. And here they are in no particular order:
Corner Bistro
This West Village institution has been around since 1962 and has lovers and haters alike. The hardest element of this place is getting a table as it is usually packed most nights. I came by 3 times until I finally found a wooden runner by the front window where I could stand and eat. Actually I am a big fan of standing and eating whenever possible. There is just such a casual, conversational nature to it that lends itself to meeting new people and being more outgoing.
This is a really wonderful cheeseburger. The bun is toasted and holds up nicely, the toppings (lettuce, tomato and onion) have been fresh on each visit and the burger is juicy and pink. If there is any weak spot I would say that it is under-seasoned. I think more salt in the cooking would be in order to bring out more of the beef flavor. Not the beefiest tasting burger I have ever had, but I was utterly happy after eating this on both occasions.
Bill's Bar & Burger
This is the new kid on the block and it has been written about endlessly since well before it even opened. This Meatpacking District burger bar has a mix of locals, sports enthusiasts, cool kids, etc... I had my eyes on the Bobcat burger which is listed on the menu as having New Mexico green chiles and jack cheese on it. The burgers here are of the smashed variety that the Shake Shack made popular a few years back. Cooked on a griddle and smashed flat, it gives them a wicked crust. I did enjoy the crustiness of this burger and the beefy flavor did come through. I asked the waitress what kind of chiles were used and she went back to ask the cook in the kitchen. She came back and said that they were a mix of roasted anaheims, poblanos and jalapenos. I loved the lingering, creeping heat that they provided.
The two drawbacks for me were the bun: it just wasn't enough to hold up to this burger and the bottom had fallen apart about halfway through eating, and the listing of the Bobcat burger. This is obviously an homage to the Bobcat Bite in Santa Fe, NM and I don't know from where they obtain their chiles, but I think many people in the know would be expecting Hatch, NM chiles on this burger. I filled out a comment card before I left suggesting a bun of better stability and maybe trying to obtain Hatch chiles when they are in season for authenticity's sake. The chocolate malted I had below was okay, but not a lot of malt flavor for $5.95. I was hoping for some clumps of malt powder stuck to the sides of the glass. Still, I would return top try some of the other burgers on the menu and would probably get this one again as I did enjoy it.
3.) Big Nick's Burgers & Pizza
Another venerable NYC institution around since 1962 on the Upper West Side, Big Nick's has a huge menu and a unique NYC feel to it that at turns can be viewed as well-worn, lived-in or perhaps even grubby, but I find it charming. My only word of caution is if you do ever make it to a place where pizza and burgers are in the name, don't order the pastrami sandwich! Not that I personally know or anything. I just, uh, heard it somewhere. Sorry about the dark, not so close-up picture of the dessert case below,
! I ended up being seated near lots of people and was somewhat camera shy.
The baked beans I had (one of my favorite sides at most any meal) were just okay and may have been from a can. The Port Cheddar Burger was great! I have a deep affinity for port wine cheddar cheese as it was always present at every family holiday gathering and it paired nicely with the big, slightly juicy burger here. The taste of that cheddar brought back many memories for me. The bun held up very nicely and the taste of the beef was on point. The pizza proofing pans for the condiments were nice touch and the UWS is a great neighborhood in which to eat and walk around. A must try if you come to the city.
4.) New York Burger Co.
Another burger spot of the In-N-Out variety, I had heard of this place for some time and a few friends said I should check it out. I like that I can watch them cook the beef and assemble the burger in front of me. Seeing the toppings beforehand gives me the chance to know what's looking good and what may be a bit tired. The atmosphere didn't really stand out to me. They do grill the beef here as opposed to griddling which is a plus in my book. I went for a cheddar cheeseburger, cooked medium and a chocolate shake. The beef could have had more pink in it, but the flavor was good. I did enjoy the toasted inside and soft outside of the roll. The toppings looked okay on this night but all I wanted right then was bun, beef, cheese and bun! The chocolate shake was thick, rich and creamy. Not sure how they made it, but I'd return for another. As much as I liked the this cheeseburger, I'm not in a rush to go back. Nothing really popped for me and I found a number of other spots I'd head to first.
The Little Owl
I've been reading about this West Village haunt for a few years now and it consistently makes many top burger lists on the message boards online. I convinced my girlfriend to go there one Sunday for brunch, knowing full well that the burger is on their brunch menu. I'm sooo clever!! A couple of notes about this place. The building at 90 Bedford Street at Grove Street is probably better known as the place where Rachel, Monica, Chandler and Joey hung their hats for 10 seasons on the NBC sitcom "Friends". The Owl is a pretty small restaurant and there can be a wait to get in. We put our names in and explained that we had to make a show in the Village in a bit and they were very accomodating. We ended up sitting at the bar which worked out just fine. We were able to have a really nice conversation with the woman who was serving us.
We split a side of asparagus home fries which were amazing. The potatoes were crispy and creamy and the asparagus was tender and crunchy at the same time. Highly recommended. The bacon cheeseburger was nothing short of yummy deliciousness! It could have been a little more pink, but it sure wasn't short on juiciness. I had some run down my chin and my hands. The beef flavor really popped on this. They gave us mini glass bottles of ketchup and mustard, but I didn't want to besmirch this beauty with such pedestrian fare. That bacon was smoky, chewy, crisp and full of flavor. While the bun was chewy and had a great taste, I don't think it was the perfect partner for a burger. Something with a bit more "give" would have been better suited to the task. The fries were rather addictive and nary a spud was left on the plate. $16 for this plate was money well, well spent and I would happily run back here for just one more bite!
Another NYC institution that always pops up on the perennial favorite places to get a burger in the city. For some reason, I absolutely love the hue of the green on this place and that sign has a Roadfood-y vibe to it. As I stepped in and waited for a seat at the bar, I spied the grill and could see the burgers coking over the flames. The place was packed but I lined up my shot anyway. As I took the picture, a waitress stepped into the shot and didn't yell at me and firmly told me not to take her picture. As for the accompanying look she gave me, let's just say that if looks could kill, I'd be telling this story to St. Peter at the Pearly Gates instead of posting it here!
I ordered the Cottage Fried Potatoes on the side. The burger was smaller than I expected, but thick, juicy and loaded with great beefy flavor. The cheese was mild and creamy, exactly what I had wanted and the bun was soft and had a nice texture from having been toasted. Unfortunately, the potatoes were little more than bland puffs of air. As seems to happen when I start having food model for me, I ended up having a fun burger discussion with the two couples sitting next to me after I explained my sacred burger quest! Part of Melon's charm is the decor inside. The walls are covered with paintings, pictures, wood cut-outs and other various forms of art depicting melons (watermelons, honeydews and cantaloupes). Cheesy joke spoiler: Do you know why some melons HAVE to get married? Answer: Because they "cantaloupe"! Definitely one of the higher end burgers I have tried and most worthy of repeat visits.
8.) burgers & cupcakes
Back to a place I reviewed a few years ago, this particular burger visit happened by accident. My friend Christina and I came here specifically for their most yummy sweet potato fries, only to be "spud-blocked" when we were told that they had run out for the day. She went with a salad and I grabbed a cheeseburger. While it is, in the words of one Mr. Jules Winnifield, "a tasty burger", there space, for me, is really devoid of any character and I find that it does take away from the overall experience. I would return, but I'm not in a rush.
Shake Shack
- A perennial favorite among many New Yorkers and simultaneously hated for the notoriously long lines at their original outpost in madison Square Park, The "Shack" has one of my favorite burgers in the city. I have loved it each and every time I have eaten one and I always take my time and savor it. This relatively new Upper West Side location is always busy, but I've never waited more than 10 minutes for my food. On this visit, I picked up a Shackburger and a Purple Cow float (grape soda and vanilla ice cream). $4.75 for a burger with cheese, lettuce, tomato and Shack Sauce (like special sauce, but better)? I'd happily fork it over. Everything comes together really well and the beef is the star here and the toppings are really fresh, really memorable supporting players. The potato bun was soft and just held up so well to the juicy goodness inside. The float was a throwback to my childhood and a creamy, grapey one at that. It tastes better than it photographs, trust me!
10.) brgr
- a fairly new place on the NYC scene, brgr just didn't do it for me. The cheeseburger was good enough, but it didn't stand out. Sure glad I tried it, but it didn't come together for me or make me say "Wow!" The fries were okay too, but I can think of at least 3 other places I would go for fries before this place. The decor was pretty cool, but I'd trade it for a better burger. The strawberry shake, however, was quite good. I didn't see them make it, but it had a great strawberry flavor to it. I'd come back for that.
- When they brought me the TOASTED MARSHMALLOW MILKSHAKE (seriously, have they been reading my diary?), I thought, okay, so they threw on a couple of toasted marshmallows for garnish. Big Deal! Every single sip toasted like a campfire toasted marshmallow. Every.single.sip!! Unreal. I wanted to crawl inside that glass with a squeegee to get out every last drop. Thick, rich, decadent, toasty. One of the best things I have ever drank. Ever.
16.) Cozy Soup N Burger
- A stand-by of mine in the heart of Greenwich Village. I used to come here often where I worked in the neighborhood. One of the first places I had eaten when visiting the city before I moved here. This is a burger of the variety I like to call "griddle-steamed". While there is a faint crust on it from the griddle, its texture and taste more closely resembles a steamed cheeseburger from Ted's in Meriden, CT than a griddled burger. For me, it is eternally comforting and a hefty burger at that. Juicy, although the flavor of the beef could be drawn out more with some additional seasoning. The medium cheeseburger below was exactly what I was looking for on this day.
17.) Wall Street Burger Shoppe
-another fairly new kid on the block and home of the $150 dollar burger with truffle and such, they do put out some very tasty small burgers. Not as small as sliders, but not as big as your average burger, they are bursting with flavor. The potato rolls are pillowy soft and hold up nicely to the juicy filings. The toppings are always very fresh. The beef is always fresh and it's flavor really stands out. Below are the Shoppe Burger on the left and the Becky Burger on the right. The one drawback of this place for me is that while the Shoppe Burger is $4.50, the rest of the burgers start at $7.00 and I think it's a bit steep for the size. I'd go back to try some of the others, but I wouldn't be in a hurry to part with my money.
18.) Black Iron Burger
-the second place Stephen Rushmore had asked about is a fairly new place in the East Village section of the city. I apologize for the quality of these photos, but I made it here on a fairly rainy, steamy day and I was not to be deterred from my mission of finding this place. I went for the standard burger (medium) with cheddar and a side of fries. The fires were of the food service variety and not fresh cut, but the cook was very up front about tat and he used an 80/20 mix of pepper to salt on them which brought them to another tasty level. The burger was of the thin school of burgers, cooked on a griddle and very, very good. Closer to medium rare, it was juicy and beefy and the toasted sesame seed roll really was a plus. I will be back here again, most definitely.
19.) Pauls da Burger Joint
- an East Village institution and one that friends have been telling me to check out for some time now. Paul's is another of the "griddled steamed" variety of burgers. Those upside down bowls on the griddle below are covering the burgers and steaming them as they cook. They do get a slight crust, but the insides look grey, but I had three of these in one week and just can't get enough of them. Very basic and very comforting. If you're not a fan of Ted's steamed cheeseburgers, then you might not like this. I really dig the big bowl of pickle slices o the table with the tongs. A nice touch. Lots of old posters and colorful East Village types are to be founds in here. The mushroom and swiss burger below was very tasty, but it just doesn't compare to the basic cheeseburger.
20.) Island Burger and Shakes
-I reviewed this place on Roadfood a few years ago and was curious to see how it has held up. Below are a hefty baked potato, a Napalm Burger and a chocolate shake. I have to say that this was disappointing. I had hoped the medium burger I had ordered would have more pink in it. The fresh jalapenos and habanero sauce on the burger were pretty tame and the shake wasn't very cold. Just an ordinary meal and I had had higher expectations. I'd go back, but not anytime soon.
-I read a food blog recently that had said R.U.B. would be serving burgers on Monday nights from 6pm to 9pm or until they ran out and that they were supposed to be pretty good. Well, that all I needed to hear. The first time I went and they had run out. About a week later I returned and was in luck. I ordered a R.U.B. Burger for $7.50 and a side of those wicked good BBQ Beans (with burnt ends laced throughout). This was one huge, seriously gaudy and messy burger. A smashed burger cooked in a hot cast iron skillet, it had an awesome crust on it and was seriously beefy. The toppings were crunchy pickle slices, caramelized onions, gooey cheese and a chipotle sauce. I could not get enough of this burger and seriously contemplated getting a second one, but that would have been overkill. I'm fantasizing about it right now as I write this. I don't know if they still serve them as it has been a few months since I was there, but if they do, run over and get one, right now!!! That is all.
22.) BLT Burger
-my last stop on the tour. BLT stands for Bistro Laurent Tourendel. Im love the relaxed feel of this place as well as the suggestive t-shirts and the glass water bottles once again. The fries and onion rings were okay, but my Great Hills Blue Burger was a beefy, savory intense punch in the mouth and I would gladly take that hit again! Juices dripping, beef flavor exploding in my mouth, and if usually not a huge blue cheese fan, but the combination of the blue cheese, balsamic onions and mushrooms was a tangy, earthy symphony of flavors that just really spoke to me. Being a huge milkshake fan, I loved the Cookie Monster shake, even at $7. BLT is another winner in my book.
23.) Peter Luger
- I won't say much about Luger's here as most of you have read the separate report I wrote already, but if I may borrow a phrase from the "Lady with the Legs", one Miss Tina Turner, Peter Luger's is SIMPLY THE BEST!!
My Top 9 Burgers of this Tour:
1.) Peter Luger's
2.) The Little Owl
3.) BLT Burger
4.) Shake Shack
5.) JG Melon
7.) Corner Bistro
8.) Big Nick's Burgers and Pizza
9.) Black Iron Burger

Great stuff
! I think I like the one from the
Back 40
best. In some of the photos, the fries look even better than the burgers. So just how much weight did you gain during this exercise and how long did it take you? Well, now I have to go get a burger for dinner. Thanks!

Are...you...kidding...me?!? That is amazing! I have so many things to say but there's too much. They all (for the most part) look phenomenal...including the various fries, onion rings, sides & shakes. This is the most thorough NY burger pictoral report ever. You have no idea how many of those I want to try....okay maybe you do, all of them!
How many days did this span? What was you favorite? (Aside from Peter Lugar) Favorite fry/side/shake? Man....this is going to make my stomach growl until I get a nice big burger in it.
Again...fantastic job!

Nice Job Billy, I rethought how I'm going to have my Black Angus cows processed. Looks like the Flat Brisket will be burger....... I really liked the looks of some of the burgers. Do you see most of these upscale burger places using a better Cheddar or Swiss, or is it a processed cheese?????????????? thanks for all the great reports..........Bill

Thanks for all of the kind words everybody!! It's still a work in progress. I spent about 2-3 hours on it yesterday, only to have none of the pictures or text show up when I posted it and I had forgotten to save it as a copy in my email, so I lost everything I had been working on. Aaarrgghh!! I figured getting up the pics, then adding the narrative would be okay.
BB - more than I eould like to have added, so I need to ease back on the Roadfooding for a bit. But man, what a ride! It took about 5 months. Sometimes I'd eat a burger once a week, sometimes twice.
ETR - I don't want to give away the favorites just yet. Soon, my friend, soon...
To the Frankfurter-tastic Mr. Fox, I am honored by your praise! Wow.
BillyB - I'm a Cheddar/processed american kind of guy form the most part. I'll mix it up now and again, but I really like the taste of the beef to be the star of the show.
Oh Russ, you sure your name isn't...RANDY! (Rimshot!)
dannybotz - duuuude!! That Toasted marshmallow milkshake was INSANE!!
lee - funny you should say that. All of the cows I spoke to absolutely loved it.
Ellen - thanks so much, darlin'! I had a feeling you might like a report such as this. I really do like Big Nick's but you must get to Luger's and if anyone gets in your way, knock 'em down!

Am back from NYC, and while the Luger's steak was quite good (and expensive) the thing that blew our socks off was the cheeseburger - and this despite the fact that they overcooked it (requested MR, got M to MW)
This is now my absolute all-time favorite cheeseburger

Great pictures! I am looking forward to the rest of the report. I had to wash my hands and wipe the juice off my chin after looking at those burgers. A side note ... I just watched the owner of The Little Owl win a Thanksgiving cook-off on The Food Network.

So sorry you lost all your work (been there done that...), but this is shaping up as a great report!
I have to admit I have never ever heard of Big Nick's even though it sounds like the type of place I'm always on the lookout for. It's now on my list. Since 1962? How could I have missed it all these years??
Great stuff! Thanks!

Wow! That was almost enough to make me put down my hot dog and run out for a burger.
LOL, John Fox !!!
Hey, BILLYBOY : I was very UNDERwhelmed by the Corner Bistro... and like you mentioned, the burger was underseasoned...
I found the cooking prep. so PLAIN....
I tried it to see if it measured up to all the hype, and it did'nt (IMO, anyway!!)
I loved the "wicked" looking crust of your Bobcat Burger from Bills Bar.... I'm overdue to try a Bobcat Burger...
I could easily get fooled by the chili,peppers cause I don't know the difference between what's an authentic New Mexico chili pepper, and what's a Manhattan imitation , lol ...
I DID try once getting into Peter Lugers for a steak dinner , but got turned away at the door!
I was told that I needed to book a reservation 3 months ahead of time...
And that was after making the trek there with the subways...
I ended up at Wolfgang's, an offshoot of Lugers (started up by a former Luger headwaiter)
I did a report here on Roadfood of my delicious huge sizzling porterhouse from Wolfgangs...
I don't think I'll be going back to Lugers anytime soon... at least not for dinner...
guess I just don't know the right people, lol....
If I went for lunch, I would probably get the steak for "here", and the burger to take out..
as it's extra trek to get there from Manhattan... minds' well make the most of it!

I've been waiting since you posted the Luger story for the rest of the burger hunt pictures, and am, as always, drooling on my keyboard. What an endeavor, and I can't wait to read the rest of the reviews. NYC is -just far- enough for us that it's not somewhere we can go and grab a bite, needs to be planned in advance, but looks like we'll be doing some planning based on your reviews soon!!

I am going to have to replace my laptop.
The drool dripping onto my keyboard from looking at those pictures just short circuited and killed it.
I have those places saved for when I visit. Great report!

MY workday begins with watching Daybreak as I get dressed and have my first cup of tea.
This morning's debate was centred on a recent survey which reported that children spend a lot less time with their families than they did 20 years ago.
It was suggested this was due to work pressures on parents and the use of technology.
A posh, clearly well-educated lady began the interview by referring to some of today's kids as 'Ghost Children' who are constantly tired and unresponsive.
'Ghost children'? 'Unresponsive'? That rang a bell with me and took me back to a time when my kids would return from school and disappear into their bedrooms and we barely caught sight of them for the rest of the evening.
My son Ross would arrive home from school and, without breaking breath to anyone, would raid the fridge before locking himself in his bedroom where he pretty much stayed for the rest of the evening. This was routine night after night.
We did everything we could to entice him out of his room, to no avail.
Now, sometimes as a punishment, kids are banished to their room. But this was no sentence for Ross. He loved it. So I decided to use some reverse psychology.
Screwdriver in hand, I unhinged his bedroom door and bumped it two floors down to the garage. He'll have to come out of his room now, I thought to myself.
Chuffed at my bright idea, I waited on Ross returning from school and peeked up from the bottom of the stairs to gauge his response.
He stood like a statue, staring in silence for ages at the openness of his bedroom and trying to figure out what the heck had happened to his room door.
Eventually he roared: "MUM. Where's my door?"
What I hadn't realised was that his prized Star Trek poster was still on the back of it.
"Calm down Ross," I said before explaining my motives.
"We never see you these days. But if you promise to come out of your room now and then, you can have your door back."
So for the next couple of weeks Ross parked himself in his room while his irritating younger sister would gloat at his dilemma by standing at the entrance to his room mocking: "Ha ha, I've got a door and you haven't."
Eventually, the tension wore me down and I relented and gave Ross his door back and life returned to 'normal.'
My so-called bright idea had been a waste of time.
However, a few months later I had another brainwave. (Much like the one the posh lady on TV had this morning).
I decided that for one night a week there would be no TV allowed in our household.
Surely, that way we would be forced to speak to each other.
"No TV?" screamed Jenna.
"Are you mad? No TV? What are we supposed to do then?" she asked in bewilderment.
"Talk to each other?" I suggested. "And, em, I'm sure we'll discover lots of exciting things to do as well."
"No TV?" gasped Ross echoing Jenna.
"You're taking things too far now mum." Ross rarely agreed with his sister.
"Look, we can all agree a night," I said attempting to find a compromise. "It doesn't have to be a Friday or Saturday."
Ross was adamant: "Well, it can't be a Thursday, because Star Trek is on."
"And not a Wednesday cause I can't miss Sabrina the Teenage Witch," moaned Jenna.
Eventually, and reluctantly, it was agreed that every Tuesday all TVs and computer games were out of bounds.
So Tuesday arrived and the house was eerily quiet.
With dinner over, and just before the usual scramble from the table, I made a suggestion.
"Right, let's have a nice evening to chat and play games."
"Games?" grunted Ross incredulously.
"Or a jigsaw. How about a jigsaw?" I suggested.
"Great," says Jenna rushing upstairs before quickly returning with an unopened Christmas present.
"No way," said Ross in horror.
"No way am I doing a thousand-piece Lion King jigsaw."
The evening was barely started and already he was in a mood.
"Well, you and your dad can do something different." I offered although I had to admit I wasn't sure what to suggest.
To kill time, the two male stooges shuffled from the room and headed towards the garage.
The following Tuesday, Jenna and I were almost finished our thousand piece jigsaw when she said: "Mum can we go out and clean out the rabbit's cage before it gets dark?"
Just then I heard the sound of glass shattering from the garage, where the boys had ended up once again, and wondered what the heck was going on.
I consoled myself with the thought that at least they were spending some quality time together.
"OK Jenna," I answered, "that's a great idea."
I was starting to think this Tuesday night thing is really starting to work. We were all really bonding.
However, on our return we discovered the two stooges had infiltrated our space and had mischievously finished the last few pieces of the Lion King jigsaw.
Jenna flew into in a rage and burst out crying. "That was the best bit," she bawled.
I yelled at the pair and the troublesome stooges skulked out of the room still sniggering.
"Do you know what?" I screamed in submission at the three of them. "I've had enough. Put the bloody TV back on."
And thereafter, we became 'Ghost parents' and they became 'Ghost teenagers' and everybody was perfectly happy.

Why give?
The college has a 70-year history of teaching, research and community engagement with a focus on urban health. To continue our work in these important areas, private philanthropy is critical and depends partly on you—our alumni and friends. Each gift, regardless of size, is meaningful and important to individuals supported by these generous donations.
Without the support of generous donors who have established endowed or annual scholarships, some students would have to drop out of their academic programs. Faculty who receive endowed professorships are freed to focus on developing new nursing knowledge to enhance health care and nursing practice.
Ultimately, the support that bolsters research and academic studies makes an impact far beyond the university's classrooms and laboratories; it makes a difference on both local and global scales.
Ways to give
There are many types of gifts and ways to give to Wayne State University. Every gift to support the College of Nursing is important, fulfilling an important need and helping to support the college's mission:
How to make a gift
It's now easier than ever to make a gift to the College of Nursing. Make your gift online or send checks made payable to Wayne State University College of Nursing to:

You know things are bad when Chris Trotter bags you
You know things are bad when Chris Trotter bags you.
I have always admired Chris Trotter. It is something i struggle to understand within me. He is implacably opposed to almost everything I believe in, yet he never wavers. He is also one of the few commentators I rate. Perhaps because we know exactly where he is coming from, with no hidden agenda and that he calls a spade a spade. I enjoy his articles and commentary and wish there were more of them.
This weeks effort in the Independent is an absolute pearler. It is so good I have kept a copy.
The money line is this.
A party with a vision for a better society has no need to play the man instead of the ball.
A party with a hunger to govern fairly and well does not defend the indefensible nor refuse to take on board reasonable criticism.
Labour in its first term had the sharp tang of new fruit and the refreshing coolness of a summer breeze.
Today it has the rancid, decaying smell of something that has been kept for far too long.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- The S&P 500 initially jumped higher on better-than-expected nonfarm payrolls results but ended Friday lower by 0.13% due to worries over Ukraine.
On CNBC's "Fast Money" TV show, Brian Kelly, founder of Brian Kelly Capital, pointed out the strength in the bond market, with the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT) finishing higher on Friday. He argued that the current economic growth does not justify the valuation of the stock market.
Tim Seymour, managing partner of Triogem Asset Management, disagreed with Kelly, saying he was bearish on bonds. He added that 10-year Treasury yields are likely headed higher although he was unsure if they could surpass 2.80%.
Guy Adami, managing director of stockmonster.com, said he expects the TLT to go to $115. However, he admitted to thinking that the S&P 500 would be lower given the current performance of the bond market.
Steve Grasso, director of institutional sales at Stuart Frankel, suggested that news out of Ukraine is the driving force behind the direction of the stock market. He said the S&P 500 seems likely to go lower.
Grasso said oil drilling companies look likely to head lower. His top pick in the energy space is Cheniere Energy (LNG). Adami said energy stocks seems overvalued.
Kelly said investors could use the earnings report from Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B) as a read into the economy. The company slightly missed its recent earnings estimates. Kelly acknowledged that he is short the broader stock market.
Grasso, who is long Twitter (TWTR), said to watch how the stock trades following the large share lockup expiration. If the stock holds up over the week, investors will likely take a chance on it, he suggested.
Seymour, who is long Coca-Cola (KO), said the company has a compelling valuation at current levels but investors should not be buying the stock for growth potential.
Adami added he would rather buy Coca-Cola on a breakout over $44 than at current levels.
Grasso said Facebook (FB) should continue to buy out its competitors to prevent being irrelevant in the future.

Washington State Department of Ecology - February 10, 2014
OLYMPIA – The Washington Department of Ecology (Ecology) was awarded $2.2 million in grant funding by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to support three critical coastal wetland projects in Washington state. Washington was one of 12 states and Puerto Rico to receive funding under the National Coastal Wetlands Conservation Grants Program.
"The projects selected for the grant funds will help restore and enhance our wetlands which are vital habitat for fish and wildlife," said Lauren Driscoll, wetlands manager for Ecology's shorelands and environmental assistance program. "This is a significant opportunity for the selected communities to leverage their local dollars with matching federal grant funds. These projects will help preserve our wetlands for future generations."
The National Coastal Wetlands Conservation Grant Program is a matching grants program administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service). The program is designed to acquire, restore and enhance wetlands, which are experiencing a dramatic annual loss according to a new study by the Service. Using matching funds from this grant program, Ecology has partnered with tribes, cities, counties, federal and state agencies and others to acquire, restore and enhance coastal wetlands throughout Washington.
Elliott Slough Acquisition: Ecology, in partnership with the Chehalis River Basin Land Trust was awarded $310,000 to permanently protect 175 acres of high quality coastal surge plain and six miles of sloughs at the head of Grays Harbor, in Grays Harbor County. This acquisition is part of a larger effort to conserve the Chehalis River Surge Plain and is located next to a State Natural Area Preserve and an Audubon Society preserve.
Lower Naselle – Ellsworth Creek Acquisition: Ecology, in partnership with The Nature Conservancy (TNC), was awarded $921,767 to conserve 386 acres of estuarine wetlands and adjacent uplands at Willapa Bay in Pacific County. This project includes estuarine tidal lands along the Lower Naselle River and within TNC's adjacent Ellsworth Creek Preserve. The project supports ongoing conservation efforts of a large number of agencies and partners, including the nearby Willapa Bay National Wildlife Refuge, to protect and restore the bay.
Skokomish Estuary Restoration: Ecology, in partnership with the Mason Conservation District and Skokomish Tribe, was awarded $1 million to complete the restoration of estuarine wetlands located on the Skokomish Reservation at the mouth of the Skokomish River in Mason County. The project builds upon the successful work of Phase 1, with the goal of restoring natural processes, functions, and species to an 825-acre area of the Skokomish estuary, which contains a variety of nationally declining wetland types.

A form of spatial memory helps a brainless slime mold navigate complex environments, hinting at the possible origins of memory in higher organisms.
The slime mold Physarum polycephalum remembers where it's been, allowing the single-cell amoeboid to more efficiently navigate its environment. The key, according to a study published yesterday (October 8) in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, a kind of externalized spatial memory system, based on the trail of translucent slime it leaves in its wake, that allows the organism to recognize and avoid already-explored areas.
"It doesn't have a brain. It doesn't even have a neuron. It has to do everything with just one cell," Audrey Dussutour, a collective behavior specialist at France's National Center for Scientific Research, told Wired Science. "The easiest way to have a memory of where you've been is to leave something behind."
When Dussutour and her colleagues noticed that foraging P. polycephalum do not often cross earlier paths, they decided to put the slime mold to the test. The researchers presented P. polycephalum with an agarose-floored Y-maze with food at the end of both arms, but in one of the arms, they covered the agar with extracellular slime; 39 of 40 went down the arm with blank agar, avoiding the slime. When both arms contained slime or both arms lacked slime, P. polycephalum showed no preference.

Hillary Clinton Rape & Sexual Misconduct Allegations, Sex Crazed First Man Threatens White House Employees If She Wins.
Bill Clinton, the 42nd President of the United States (1993-2001), has been publicly accused by several women of sexual misconduct. Juanita Broaddrick has accused Clinton of rape; Kathleen Willey has accused Clinton of groping her without consent; and Paula Jones accuses Clinton of sexually harassing her. Other women have alleged adulterous affairs with Bill Clinton (e.g., Dolly Kyle, Gennifer Flowers, Monica Lewinsky). In addition, rumors of additional sexual misconduct have been publicized in tabloid magazines and on the Internet.
Of all the allegations made against him regarding his sexual history, Clinton has only admitted extramarital relationships with Monica Lewinsky and Gennifer Flowers. He denied having an affair with Dolly Kyle.
In a 1999 episode of Dateline NBC, former Clinton volunteer Juanita Broaddrick alleged that in the late 1970s Bill Clinton raped her in her hotel room. According to Broaddrick, she agreed to meet with Clinton for coffee in the lobby of her hotel, but Clinton asked if they could go to her room to avoid a crowd of reporters. Once Clinton had isolated her in her hotel room, he sexually assaulted her. Broaddrick stated Clinton injured her lip by biting it during the assault.[1][2] In 1999, Clinton denied Broaddrick's allegations through his lawyer.
Supporters of Clinton have questioned her account by noting that Broaddrick continued to support Clinton, and appear at public events on his behalf, weeks after the alleged rape.[3] In addition, Broaddrick had once signed a deposition stating that no sexual contact had occurred with Bill Clinton; although she subsequently stated that she had made this claim because "I didn't want to be forced to testify about the most horrific event of my life."[4][5]
Juanita Broaddrick
Broaddrick's allegations resurfaced in the 2016 presidential campaign. In various media interviews, Broaddrick stated that Clinton raped her and that Hillary Clinton knew about it, and tried to threaten Broaddrick into remaining silent. She started giving some interviews in 2015 because Hillary Clinton's statement that victims of sexual assault should be believed angered her
Dolly Kyle
As part of Paula Jones sexual harassment case Dolly Kyle (formerly Dolly Kyle Browning), a childhood classmate of Bill Clinton, was deposed and stated that she had known Bill Clinton since she was eleven and had an affair with him starting around 1974 and ending in 1992.[7][8][9][10] Ms. Kyle had become a lawyer in Texas. She began writing a "semi-autobiographical novel" about her alleged affair with Bill Clinton. In the publication process, Browning asserted that Clinton did everything in his power to prohibit and undermine publication. Browning sued Clinton for damages, but the US Court of Appeals denied her appeal. Clinton denied that an affair had occurred.[11][12] She subsequently published a memoir (Hillary the Other Woman: A Political Memoir) on their alleged 18-year affair.[13]
Paula Jones
According to Paula Jones' account, on May 8, 1991, she was escorted to Clinton's hotel room in Little Rock, Arkansas[14] where he propositioned and exposed himself to her. She claimed she kept quiet about the incident until 1994, when a David Brock story in the American Spectator magazine printed an account. In any case, in 1994, Jones filed a federal lawsuit against Clinton, alleging sexual harassment. In the discovery stage of the suit, Jones's lawyers had the opportunity to question Clinton under oath about his sexual history; in the course of this testimony, Clinton denied having had a sexual affair with Monica Lewinsky, a denial that (once his affair with Lewinsky was exposed) would lead to his impeachment for perjury and obstruction of justice.[15]
In April 1998, the case was dismissed by Republican Judge Susan Webber Wright as lacking legal merit.[16] But Jones appealed Webber Wright's ruling, and her suit gained traction following Clinton's admission to having an affair with Monica Lewinsky in August 1998.[17]
On appeal, in the midst of his trial for impeachment based on false testimony in the Jones case (about his affair with Monica Lewinsky), Clinton was faced with the prospect of having to go under oath again and testify more about his sexual history. Instead, Clinton agreed to an out-of-court settlement, paying Jones and her lawyers $850,000 to drop the suit.[18] Clinton's lawyer said that the President made the settlement only so he could end the lawsuit for good and move on with his life.[19]
Kathleen Willey
In 2015, Kathleen Willey alleged Clinton groped her in the White House Oval Office in 1993.[20] Kenneth Starr granted her immunity for her testimony in his separate inquiry.[21][22]
Linda Tripp, the Clinton Administration staffer who secretly taped her phone conversations with Monica Lewinsky in order to expose the latter's affair with the President, testified under oath that Willey's sexual contact with President Clinton in 1993 was consensual, that Willey had been flirting with the President, and that Willey was happy and excited following her 1993 encounter with Clinton.[23] Ken Starr thought there was insufficient evidence to pursue her allegations further. In 2007 Willey published a book about her experiences with the Clintons.[24]
Gennifer Flowers
Gennifer Flowers (born January 24, 1950) is an American model and actress who obtained notoriety in 1992 by revealing a 12-year sexual relationship with former U.S. President Bill Clinton. Clinton denied the affair at the time. However, In January 1998, as part of Paula Jones' case, Clinton testified under oath that he had [25] sexual relations with Flowers.[26][27] In 2016 Flowers stated that Hillary is an enabler of Bill Clinton's affairs.[28]
Other allegations
Eileen Wellstone is an English woman who alleged Clinton raped her in 1969 after she had met him at a pub near Oxford University, England. Clinton was a Rhodes Scholarship student at Oxford at that time. Ms Wellstone re-confirmed the incident in 1999, but asked to be left alone.[29]
In 1998, in response to what she called false media claims that Clinton had raped her, Elizabeth Ward Gracen (former Miss Arkansas and Miss America) recanted a six-year-old denial and stated she had a one-night stand with Clinton in 1982.[30] Gracen later apologized to Hillary Clinton.[30]
Sally Perdue, a former Miss Arkansas, said she had a four-month affair with him in 1983.[31]
Connie Hamzy, a self-described rock-and-roll groupie, who said Clinton propositioned her in 1984 while she was sunbathing by a Little Rock hotel pool.[32]
Lencola Sullivan, a former Miss Arkansas and fourth runner-up in the Miss America pageant was rumoured to have had a "sexual relationship" with Clinton by L.D. Brown, Clinton's state trooper body guard.[33]
Young Hillary Clinton heard laughing while discussing her defense of an accused child rapist in newly discovered audio tapes
A young Hillary Clinton callously rejoiced at getting an accused child rapist off the hook even though the then-lawyer suspected the man was guilty, newly unearthed audio recordings of the youthful future pol show.
Clinton, then a 27-year-old legal aid lawyer in Arkansas, is heard on the old recording, obtained and first reported on by the Washington Free Beacon, casually discussing how she was able to finagle a plea bargain for her client — an Arkansas man accused of raping a 12-year-old girl — because of a legal technicality.
"This guy was accused of raping a 12-year-old. 'Course he claimed that he didn't, and all this stuff," says a cavalier Clinton on the recording, referencing her client, Thomas Alfred Taylor, who was charged with the 1975 rape.
"I had him take a polygraph, which he passed, which forever destroyed my faith in polygraphs," a chuckling Clinton is heard saying — a seemingly obvious clue that she felt her client was guilty.
Over the course of the interview — conducted from 1983 to 1987 by Arkansas reporter Roy Reed for a piece in Esquire magazine that never ran — Clinton reveals how she took advantage of critical mistakes by the crime-scene team and the prosecution to get Taylor to plead to a much lesser charge.
"The crime lab took the pair of (Taylor's) underpants," which reportedly contained blood and semen that some thought would have proved his guilt, "neatly cut out the part that they were gonna test, tested it, came back with the result of what kind of blood it was what was mixed in with it, then sent the pants back with the hole in it to evidence," a breezy Clinton says. "Of course the crime lab had thrown away the piece they had cut out."
Clinton, who as Taylor's court-appointed defense attorney was legally obligated to act in her client's best interests, capitalized on the grave mistake, taking the remaining fabric to a well-known forensic expert in New York to prove that the evidence had been irreversibly compromised.
The expert found that not enough blood remained on the fabric to test, prompting the judge in the case to urge lawyers on both sides to agree on a plea deal for Taylor.
Taylor, who died in 1992, ended up pleading guilty to unlawful fondling of a child and was sentenced to one year in prison. He ended up serving less than that, due to time he had already served.
Clinton, in numerous interviews, has described the case as having been difficult for her.

One suspect remained at large Friday after the armed robbery of a San Rafael marijuana dispensary that prompted a chase and massive hunt for four suspects Thursday.
"We called off the search at 10 o'clock (Thursday night)," said sheriff's Sgt. Mark Hale.
He said officials have "no idea" of the identity of the suspect still at large. Three of the four were in custody as night fell. At least one gun was unaccounted for, raising the possibility the holdout robber was armed.
Alonzo Eriberto Sandoval, 18, Brandon Mervin James Spencer, 19, and Ruben Torres, 22, were booked into county jail on suspicion of robbery, burglary and conspiracy. All three live in San Rafael.
The robbery occurred around 4:30 p.m. at the Tree of Life medical marijuana club at 292 N. San Pedro Road near the county Civic Center, said sheriff's Sgt. Mark Hale. Three robbers ordered employees to the floor, stole cash from the register and marijuana and fled east in a black Honda.
A sheriff's deputy saw the car in the China Camp area and chased it to the Peacock Gap and Glenwood area. The suspects ditched the car on Oak Drive and ran, dropping a handgun on the way. At least one other gun was seen during the robbery.
Deputies and San Rafael police descended on the area, telling residents to stay indoors and searching from yard to yard. A California Highway Patrol helicopter was called in, and search dogs were brought to the scene.
Three suspects were found in yards, and at least one was under a deck. The search was continuing Thursday night in the Oak Drive area.
"There must've been 25 or 30 undercover cars racing down Point San Pedro, which is especially unusual for our sleepy neighborood," said Marin Drive resident Carol Allison. "It was unnerving. ... I've got kids, and they're concerned. The dog is freaking out."
Mary Sinclair, a resident of Beach Road, said she and her neighbors were outside observing the search until deputies told them to go inside.
"It's exciting," she said. "I enjoyed watching all the action. I can look out completely on the front of the marsh area. I saw them catch one guy under the deck at the house opposite me."

Podcasts, in general, are one of my favorite things on the internet right now. They can be found in just about any topic you can think of. I currently follow quite a few different ones. For example, I listen to an NFL fantasy football analysis show during football season, and a zombie apocalypse radio drama. But all of the other 9 podcasts I subscribe to revolve around video games.
Video game podcasts, in particular, have had a dramatic impact on the way I view the industry. They can be a window into the many conversations I want to have with people I would like to talk to. They entertain, they inform, they pass time, but more importantly they humanize the media that revolves around games. How else would a guy like me, who lives in small town, Texas, be able to be a part of the many conversations going on in the gaming community?
Before podcasts, my options for getting involved with public gaming opinions were limited almost exclusively to consuming text. First from magazines, then it was online editorials, reviews, opinion pieces, blogs, comments, and forums, and nothing was inherently wrong with them, but there's something slightly impersonal about only paying attention to these outlets. They can take a long time to find, sort through, read, and most of the time I don't have time to read the ones I'm interested in, or respond to them. Podcasts can be so much more alive and approachable. When the Podcast Beyond guys, for example, get together and record an audio podcast, where they can verbalize their reactions to games and events of the industry (or even when they just ramble on about other random, but current, nonsense), I get to hear their opinions, and I get to think critically while its being discussed. Since their podcast is mostly about PlayStation, I know that I'll be interested in 95% of what they have to say, because I enjoy gaming on PlayStation. Text can be edited to a fine, sterile sheen compared to the raw honesty that comes with verbal articulation. As a bonus, all of the aforementioned textual means of joining the conversation are made much better after learning more about the personality of the writer through their podcast. I find that I get much more out of a written article if I know the writer's voice and past opinions.
By far the greatest strength of audio podcasts, in my opinion, is the nature of the way they can be consumed. They are extremely convenient. You don't have to be seated at a desk, or hold anything in your hands. I use my iPhone to download them, and I listen with headphones while driving, or if it's slow at work, or while cleaning the house. You can also listen to a podcast while playing certain games that are naturally repetitive. RPGs like Torchlight II, Diablo III, KoA: Reckoning, or DC Universe Online are perfect for multitasking with a podcast. It's a pretty fun way to spend a Saturday afternoon, as far as I'm concerned. Here are some good podcast recommendations and brief descriptions for those who are interested:
IGN's Podcast Beyond is an especially great source for weekly PlayStation news. It's also a really funny "conversational podcast", as Greg Miller (the host) calls it. I've enjoyed it for years.
Idle Thumbs is a really cool group of game developers who are, of course, super passionate about video games. The podcast is basically just a way for them to get together with their friends on weekends and talk naturally about what interests them. They're funny, and they have interesting conversations about games from more of development-oriented lens. I just recently started listening to it, but it's becoming one of my favorites already.
The PC Gamer Podcast leans heavily toward the PC platform, as the name suggests. The guys in this group are very smart and technical. I've learned a lot while listening to them talk about moments in PC gaming's past that I missed. Also, since the PC stays light-years ahead of the consoles technologically, they continue to have a solid perspective on the industry's future.
The Game Informer Show is great for keeping up with the news for all platforms. They usually discuss and rationalize current events and their new reviews. Also, they often have insightful interviews with developers who are releasing new games.
The Brainy Gamer is a podcast that was put together by Michael Abbott as a companion to his Brainy Gamer blog, which was a key inspiration for me to start writing about video games. Michael is a professor of "Game Studies" interested in furthering the discussion of games analytically. His goal is to create meaningful discussions. I applaud his efforts. He possesses an indispensable critical view of the game industry. I recommend reading his blog along with listening to the podcast. Sadly, over the course of the last couple of years, he has been writing and recording less content, but he is still active.
IGN's UK Podcast is fun to listen to. Before I listened to this show, I never knew much about modern day Europe or England. It has been really cool to have a small window into the events and reactions of the UKs nerd culture. This show talks about games, movies, TV shows, and just about anything that pertains to entertainment.
The Double Fine Action Cast is the official podcast of the innovative game development studio that gives it its name. The show doesn't have a regular schedule; they kind of just make a show when they have something to talk about. When they do have something to say, I listen out of respect, because this studio is in the process of subtly changing the modus operandi of the entire video game industry.
Irrational Behavior is the official podcast of Irrational Games, developer of Bioshock. They haven't released a new episode in over a year, but I recommend this because the podcasts that they currently have available are phenomenal. They have two types of shows in the series: Irrational Behavior and Irrational Interviews. Behavior is usually a chance for the Irrational staff to explore a specific idea, such as inspiration or fear, as a group. Interviews is a chance for Ken Levine to sit and talk with other creative people about their processes. There are some really really cool interviews in this series, such as Amy Hennig and Guillermo Del Toro.
Last, but not least, Tone Control is a brand new show by Steve Gaynor, developer of Gone Home. Steve plans on using this show as a chance to "sit down with noteworthy video game developers for an in-depth conversation about their career and creative process, and the tricky work of establishing and maintaining a cohesive tone in their games". The first episode is out now, and involves the developers of The Walking Dead, Jake Rodkin and Sean Vanaman.
Happy listening! I hope some, or all, of these podcasts are to your liking.

Hi there.
Sorry about that, but again, this is more likely a serial issue, and also unrelated to the original topic, which means you want to create a new thread to continue this discussion. I recommend that if your problem is to ask about how to generate a pulse via a serial command, you post that in the Instrument Control section of our boards, since you're not dealing with our Motion Control VIs and hardware, but rather with other hardware.
This board would be your best bet.

A 6 foot, steam-operated working replica of a steamboat invented by John Fitch set sail in Warminster on the pond situated near the Pavilion in Warminster Community Park on the morning of Saturday, July 21st.
Built my master model-maker, Fred Rosse, this six-foot, steam-operated vessel, is based on a French patent drawing obtained from the Smithsonian Institute. The paddle mechanism is taken from John Fitch's own sketches. It represents a 1/10-scale version of the actual steamboat in which Fitch took passengers and freight between Philadelphia's Arch Street wharf and Trenton, NJ in 1790. That vessel was the world's first commercial steamboat.
Born in Connecticut, John Fitch began the "transportation revolution" while living in Warminster where he invented the steamboat and the steam engine to propel it in 1785. The steamboat replica is on loan from the John Fitch Steamboat Museum, which is located on the grounds of Historic Craven Hall, located in Warminster, PA.
This museum, which opened April 2011, houses exhibits depicting John Fitch's adventuresome life, and the steamboats he invented. In addition the Museum has graphic displays on Fitch's accomplishments, a professional DVD on Fitch, and a large 200-year old workbench with antique woodworking tools.
The John Fitch Steamboat Museum is open to the public on Tuesdays from 10:00 a.m. to noon (by previous appointment) as well as the second Sunday of each month (excluding Easter Sunday) from noon to 3:00 p.m. Group tours will be given by reservation.
Historic Craven Hall, which is on the National Register of Historic Places, is located at the corner of Street and Newtown Roads in Warminster, PA.

North Park Jack in the Box court case surprise
"I am not going to subject my clients to abusive depositions by Mr. Briggs."
Dorian Hargrove 1:15 p.m., Sept. 25
Dear Matthew Alice:
I work in retail and occasionally a customer will give us an Eisenhower or Susan B. Anthony dollar. Other customers usually don't like them given back as change, so we put them in with out bank deposit. Since these coins are no longer minted and are not in circulation, what happens to them? Do they get destroyed?
-- Curious Ken, Cardiff by the Sea
Man, Sue and Ike take so much guff. Dissed left and right. Not in circulation? Destroyed? Nobody wants them in change? Well, that's true. Nobody does want them in change. But your shop accepts them, Ken, so they're still out there and still legal tender and deserve as much respect as any funky paper dollar. In Ike's case, maybe more. The Eisenhower dollar was minted from 1971 to 1978 in various forms. It's still worth a dollar if you're paying for a taco or a transmission; and it could be worth from $3.00 to $15.00 or so to a collector. Susans were minted from 1979 to 1999 and don't have much collectible value, but she'll still buy gum and pantyhose. By federal law (the Coinage Act of 1965), any coins or bills issued by the U.S. government, no matter when, are legal tender forever. You can pay for $10 worth of Frappucinos with a $10 gold piece, a penny candy with an Indian-head penny. They're not minted any more, they have greater value as collectibles so they're not seen in circulation, but they're still legal tender.

The Trend: Colored Sashes
The Dress: A343 (a.k.a. "The Blue Sash Dress") by Amsale, Chosen by Bridals by Lori
Looking back, it's pretty clear that the craze began when Amsale tied a long, dramatic length of blue taffeta around one of her early duchesse satin styles. The popularity of this look inspired brides to incorporate a bit of color into their gowns, and they embraced the endless possibilities of doing so; requests for blue (or pink or green) sashes came in from all directions. Other bridal designers jumped on this trend, debuting sash designs for both brides and bridesmaids at every price point.

Opposition defeats Conservative Government
OTTAWA — Opposition parties united Friday to declare the Conservative government had lost the confidence of the House of Commons.
This was motion Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff proposed:
That the House agree with the finding of the Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs that the government is in contempt of Parliament, which is unprecedented in Canadian parliamentary history, and consequently, the House has lost confidence in the government.
The Conservatives lost the vote, 145 to 156. Independents André Arthur and ousted Tory MP Helena Guergis voted with the Tories. Liberals cheered and threw bits of papers in the air. Some which they had already cut in small perfectly strait pieces to give the appearance of confetti in the air.

The Jaguars wouldn't have had the chance for David Garrard's Hail Mary pass to be knocked down by Glover Quin to Mike Thomas for the game-winning touchdown if the Jaguars hadn't gotten a huge takeaway just before that.
After tight end Joel Dreessen's false start backed them up and Matt Schaub threw an incomplete pass, the Texans faced a hopeless situation: Third-and-15 from the Jaguars' 45-yard line with 16 seconds left and no timeouts.
They needed about 10 yards to give Neil Rackers a chance at a field goal, and coach Gary Kubiak said Monday they were basically playing for overtime there because that gain would have taken too long to be able to get the field goal team out.
They ran a play anyway, and Kubiak said Schaub went to the right place with the ball. He found Dreessen over the middle for an 8-yard gain, but Sean Considine hit him as he turned upfield and stripped the ball. Justin Durant recovered.
Garrard then hit Marcedes Lewis for an 11-yard gain to set up the final-play heroics.
Considine played 11 plays on defense as part of a dime package.
