People often ask me who's my favorite designer; my answer can change by the season, but Isabel Marant is always up there. When she makes simply nonchalantly sexy-looking stuff like this studded wrap skirt, I mean, how can you not love her?
Another constant favorite: Rag & Bone. Everything they make is a cooler version of a classic. Case in point, their Edburg wrap skirt looks chic and versatile at first glance; take a closer look and you'll see that it's croc-embossed leather. Rag & Bone is opening their long-awaited San Francisco store soon, 5 blocks from my apartment. In the meantime, I am thinking about changing my middle name to Trouble.
While we're playing favorites, another is Proenza Schouler, a label I particularly admire for its devotion to prints. Their wrap-effect skirt evokes butterfly wings both in pattern and in the fluttery way in which the panels fall. And if there's anything I love more than a miniskirt, it's an animal-print miniskirt.
Considering it has wide horizontal stripes, this A.L.C. Campbell striped skirt shouldn't, in theory, be flattering. And yet the asymmetrical, angled way in which they fall across the hips has a devastatingly slimming effect. And in spite of its knee-covering length, I find the front slit rather sultry, in a Mrs. Robinson kind of way.
I have the luxury of living in a city where I can wear most of my clothes year-round, which means that even though it's spring, I'll get plenty of wear out of this Maison Scotch leather faux-wrap skirt, a strong contender to replace my current (much loved, stretched out) black leather mini.
Of course, sometimes it's good to step out of one's boundaries. At first glance, this silk panel wrap skirt by the lovely and talented Misha Nonoo seems a bit conservative for my taste, but upon closer look, I love the dreamy print and the fact that a sheer fabric peeks out of the rather high front slits. Demure...and daring.
I love the Gatsby-esque Art Deco print on this Fairground architectural wrap mini; common sense tells me that a woman of my age should plan on wearing tights with this skirt, since the longest point is a mere 16 inches long.
Asos, one of my favorite sources for disposable fashion trends that I tend not to actually dispose due to their awesomeness, has lots of wrap skirts, as one might imagine. My favorite is this sporty textured colorblock style, currently on sale for a mere $30.
One of my favorite styles here, this Mango wrapped-waist skirt daringly combines two trends--the peplum and the wrap--into one, and yet it works, in a kind of origami-like way. I've been looking for a new white skirt to replace an old favorite (coincidentally, also from Mango); at $39.99, this one seems like a no-brainer.

The TSSAA released its latest playoff standings and projected quadrants on Tuesday and once again there were lots of changes.
The TSSAA released its latest playoff standings and projected quadrants on Tuesday and once again there were lots of changes.
I broke down the numbers to present the playoff matchups based on the current standings, but because the season isn�t completed I was required to determine which teams are currently in first and second place in their respective districts in order to seed each quadrant. Teams that are currently in first place have preferential seeding over second place teams, which are accorded the same privilege over wild card teams.
These projections are made assuming that the season is over, so obviously they are subject to change.
For those wondering which half of the state area teams can be found in the overall bracket, Quadrants 1 and 2 are in the East Tennessee portion of the draw, while Quadrants 3 and 4 are in the West Tennessee part of the bracket.
So with all of those disclaimers out of the way, here are the current projections.
Class 1A - Quadrant 2
No. 5 Eagleville at No. 4 Monterey
Eagleville/Monterey winner at No. 1 Moore County
No. 6 Red Boiling Springs at No. 3 Gordonsville
Red Boiling Springs/Gordonsville winner at No. 2 South Pittsburg
Class 1A - Quadrant 3
No. 5 Collinwood at No. 4 Nashville Christian
Collinwood/Nashville Christian at No. 1 Jo Byrns
No. 6 Cornesville at No. 3 Clarksville Academy
Cornersville/Clarksville Academy at No. 2 Huntingdon
Notes: Columbia Academy is 26th in the standings, just two spots out of the final playoff position. Wayne County and Perry County were 27th and 28th, respectively, in the playoff standings.
Class 2A - Quadrant 3
No. 5 Forrest at No. 4 White House Heritage
Forrest/White House Heritage winner at No. 1 Mt. Pleasant
No. 6 Community at No. 3 Loretto
Community/Loretto winner at No. 2 Cascade
Class 3A - Quadrant 3
No. 8 East Hickman at No. 1 Cheatham County
No. 5 Fairview at No. 4 York Institute

Class 3A - Quadrant 4
No. 8 Martin Westview at No. 1 South Gibson
No. 5 Hickman County at No. 4 Milan
No. 7 Lewis County at No. 2 Jackson Central-Merry
No. 6 Camden at No. 3 Memphis Manassas
Class 4A - Quadrant 2
No. 8 Chattanooga Red Bank at No. 1 Giles County
No. 5 Chattanooga Notre Dame at No. 4 Page
No. 7 Marshall County at No. 2 East Hamilton
No. 6 Hixson at No. 3 Signal Mountain
Notes: Summit is 36th in the playoff standings just four spots away from the final postseason position.
Class 5A - Quadrant 2
No. 8 Cleveland at No. 1 Antioch
No. 5 Knoxville West at No. 4 Ooltewah
No. 7 Walker Valley at No. 2 Columbia Central

Erectile Dysfunction (ED)
Erectile Dysfunction question
Hello, I am a 21 year old male and I have been experience some erectile dysfunction. For some history, about 8-9 years ago I had abdominal surgery. They removed 80-90% of my colon. My abdominal situation is fine now (completely healthy). My erections were fine after this for about 5-6 years, so I don`t think the two problems are connected. Starting about 3 years ago, my erections became less firm. This phenomenon occured during a 1-yearish episode of depression, which I immediately linked to this symptom. It is now 3 years later, however, and I am not depressed at all anymore and I have not been for about 2.5 years. The problem has continued and even gotten worse. I do not often experience morning erections. They do occur occasionally, but quite infrequently. Whereas I used to get spontaneous erections and be able to achieve erection just by visual stimuli, this is no longer the case. I almost always need direct stimulation for a chance to achieve erection. When I masturbate, I almost always achieve erection and maintain it with continued stimulation. However, the glans often does not become hard although the shaft is. If I discontinue stimulation, the erection disappears quite quickly. Often, if I stand up, even with continued stimulation, the erection disappears. During intercourse, there are rare times when I can maintain an erection for a longer period of time (15-30 minutes). But as said, these times are rare. Sometimes (about 1 time out of every 5 sessions) I lose my erection during intercourse. Sometimes I am able to get it back. I am not experiencing performance anxiety and I have spoken with my partner about the problem. I do not think that any (conscious) psychological difficulty is affecting this. The soft glans during erection as well as the quick drainage after the cessation of stimulation (and standing up) leads me to suspect the problem might be related to venous leakage. However, does this theory clash with the occasional secure erection? What do you think the likely cause of this is? I have done all the reading on drugs, etc. What treatment options are available, if any, that are more permanent? Thank you very much.
This is a complicated case. you will need a very thorough evaluation, both from a physical and psychological standpoint. You may need to see a urologist and a psychologist to get the process started.

Gas Checks
March 17, 2012, 09:49 PM
When do you use them? and what is the difference between aluminum and brass checks? this would be for 30 cal bullets
March 17, 2012, 10:27 PM
I would think about using them when pushing a bullet over 1000 fps. The difference between aluminum and brass is price. They both perform as well.
March 18, 2012, 12:03 AM
You can get properly sized boolits to run up to 1500 to 1600 fps without leading or checks.
March 18, 2012, 08:42 AM
Yup. My rule of thumb is about 1400 FPS + I strap on a gas check. I use gas checks rarely because they are expensive and cumbersome to put on if you shoot alot. I only gas check my .223, 500 SW, and various 30 cal rifle loads (7.62x54r, 7.5 swiss). I don't gas check 32 auto, 380, 9mm, 38, 357, 40, 10mm,44 spl, 44mag, and 45acp. Boolit fit is king. For smaller caliber, high pressure rounds I prefer to size .002" over groove diameter. 38/357 on up I size .001" over. You will find out what works for you. Good luck!
March 18, 2012, 09:55 AM
For all the many years I was a member of the Cast Lead Bullet Association and received the Fowling Shot magazine, I noted that all the competitors (modern .30 cal. rifles), used gas checks on their rifle bullets despite the fact that they routinely only used loads that produced the velocity of 1100 fps (around the speed of sound). These competitions were focused on producing the most accurate loads possible. That fact implies that despite the fact that you can shoot bullets without gas checks and at higher velocities, for top accuracy, it would seem they are an advantage. Now, the data taken from competitions as listed in the Fouling Shot, has nothing to do with hunting bullets, if that is your purpose.
March 18, 2012, 08:44 PM
Dahermit confirms information I have heard too. The base of the bullet is important to accuracy. Some molds are nose pour, where the sprue is cut at the nose or front of the boolit. This ensures the bases are crisp, flat, and consistent. I don't own any of these types of molds. I can't speak from experience.
March 18, 2012, 08:54 PM
I bought two lyman molds, the 311299 and the 311284. Both of these molds are popular with the cast bullet crowd and they are recessed for gas checks.
I shot them without gas checks and accuracy was horrible. Like would not stay on a 8.5 X 11" paper at 100 yards horrible.
I shot them with gas checks and the accuracy was much better.
I have no idea why, but I will go with what works. ;)
March 18, 2012, 10:30 PM
I use gas checks on my 32 Special, 35 Rem and some 45-70 hunting loads because they run 1600-2200fps. On my pistol cartridges and 45-90 (blackpowder) I see no need for gas checks. I'm working with plain-based bullets in the 45-70 around 15-1600 but like the GC bullet better.

Hey folks,
I started using copper gas checks 50 years ago when they were cheap as dirt. As years went by, gas checks went up in price until they were quite a significant cost to me.
About five or six years ago, I heard about making my own aluminum gas checks from soda cans with a FreeChex tool kit sold by a fellow named Charlie Darnall out in California. Considering the price of copper gas checks, I bought one of the FreeChex kits to see how they worked and how the aluminum gas checks worked. I got a tool set for 38 caliber, started making gas checks for my .357, and found out they worked just fine.
The first version of the FreeChex used a punch to punch out aluminum discs from a soda can, and then a mandril and die to form the gas check from the disc. It was time consuming but I could do it while watching TV in my recliner. Then Charley came out with his FreeChex II tool set. It was a little more expensive but cut the discs without having to use the punch and was a little bit faster. I ended up with two of the original FreeChex tool sets for two calibers (.357 and .30) and two of the FreeChex II tool sets for two other calibers (.44 and .45-70), and I still use both types of sets to make my aluminum gas checks. Later, Charlie came out with his Freechex III tool set that works with a cheap arbor press and makes checks faster than you can believe. Each cycle of the handle makes a finished check in one step that falls through the bottom to a collection pan. I never tried the FreeChex III, but I saw it work on a You Tube thing where a fellow is feeding the machine from a continuous coil stock. You simply cannot believe how fast it works.
The FreeChex III is to be use with either copper or aluminum thicker coil stock you can get at Home Depot rather than using aluminum soda cans. I already had tool sets for the four calibers I use, so I never tried the FreeChex III tool set. I also liked the idea of using scrap soda cans for my gas checks.
And in case you are wondering, no, aluminum gas checks do not form aluminum oxide and ruin my barrels. The aluminum is coated on both sides, and when placed on the bullet which is sized and lubricated, they are well lubricated and not about to oxidize.
Best wishes,
Dave Wile

Buzz has always been an important element when trying to launch a startup. The rise of social media from 2005-2008 became a great way for people to get their budding businesses attention. Then, something happened. Social media became TOO big in 2009 and the noise levels started drowning out the potential benefits of the buzz that was getting generated.
In reality, running a tech company isn't that hard. It takes guts, hard work, and a strong vision, but keeping a successful tech company growing is relatively easy compared to other challenges that life throws at us.
Starting a tech company, however, is nearly impossible. Once you get there, the rest is pretty easy. Getting there is the tough part.
I wasn't going to chime in. When I first saw the headline for Chris Dixon's post, SEO is no longer a viable marketing strategy for startups, I assumed that it was just another "SEO is Dead" rant, so I didn't read it. As it gained more attention and responses, I finally relented. I'm glad I did.
It wasn't a baseless rant. In fact, it made some very excellent points, but it's in a response post by Sarah Tavel titled Prediction: Facebook is no longer a viable marketing strategy for startups that really made my mind start swirling. I've been pondering the concept all day and night (it's now 1am, so "all day and night" is literal).
It's a question that people often ask when they're alone, bored, concerned, or simply wanting to talk to someone for random reasons. "Anybody out there?"
This startup called AnybodyOutThere tries to help people who are asking the question by putting them in Instant Messaging conversations with people who may share their interests or concerns at the moment. With promised integration into several IM platforms, there is a certain sense of controlled chaos that surrounds the service.
There are few things more embarrassing than getting caught with damaging materials on social profiles, particularly by a relative, employer, or competitor. What we posted weeks, months, even years ago can come back to bite us. That's the nature of social media in many ways – to allow us to expose ourselves. The degree to which we do so, however, is often what gets us in trouble.
The real time web continues to be a buzz world through technology and internet marketing blogs. Users want to know what is happening right now, and the real time web is in the middle of all of it.
Below, are four startups currently making an impact in the industry:
Topsy.com – A major aspect of the real time web is the ability for users to share links. Topsy has spent a lot of time and money at building technology which will analyze all of the links on the real time web, and then they display search results based on the most popular links being shared. They also use authority because certain people sharing links hold more weight than others. Anyway, they generate search results to other sites, based on the popular links in the real time web. You can sort by hour, day, week, or month.
Sency.com * – Sency has built to feeds for webmasters to integrate into their website. The first, brings real time content to a website. So, a site about Hollywood can have a stream of content, that updates automatically anytime someone mentions Hollywood on the real time web. The other feed is a popular links feed that updates with Today's most popular links for a respective keyword. These tools are private labeled, and offer several customization options.
Read Mashable. Techcrunch. Any of the websites that follow startups. Trends emerge. Hopes are high. Hope is lost. Startup rises. Startup ends down. The question is, "why?"
Instead of going into any of the dozens of high-potential startups that we looked at from 2007 that aren't going to make it through 2008, let's explore one general theme. Startups aren't as sexy as they once were. I'm not talking about sexy, as in porn or meeting "friends" online. The sexy that I'm referring to is the kind of website that you read about, try out, and say:
"Wow. I really need to use this."

Yes, teens spend a lot of time online. But for publishers trying to use that to their advantage, it takes more than just shifting promotional dollars to the Web. "Part of the trick to marketing books to teens online is that the most effective results seem to come from the coverage that appears most organic, viral and uncommercial in nature," says Tracy van Straaten, v-p of trade publicity at Scholastic. Here's what some publishers are doing to reach YA readers on the Internet.
Meeting at MySpace
With over 70 million unique visitors each month, MySpace is the most trafficked Web site in the country in terms of page views, according to marketing research company comScore. No wonder it's become de rigueur for authors, books and even fictional characters to have their own pages on this and other social networking sites.
Little, Brown Books for Young Readers recently promoted an online chat with Clique series author Lisi Harrison via her MySpace page, collecting more than 2,000 questions from readers and attracting 200 teens for the chat session. "One of the main themes in the chat was that the teens really wanted to have an official place where they could talk to each other about the books," says Tina McIntyre, director of marketing at LBYR.
So when it came time to revamp the Web site for Stephenie Meyer's Twilight saga, LBYR included message boards to give teens a place to converse, as well as a blog for reviews, media appearances and photographs. A recent poll on the boards about the heroine's romantic dilemmas that asked, "Who should Bella choose?" racked up more than 6,000 votes.
While Putnam will be creating a MySpace page for Slam, Nick Hornby's first book for teens, the publisher isn't letting the author's MySpace presence end there. For the week beginning October 22, Hornby will be the guest blogger on MySpace's book channel, and Slam will be one of six books featured when he's blogging. "All of our online and consumer efforts have to direct back to that [MySpace] page," says v-p of marketing Emily Romero. "We can't just put a page up there and hope people go to it."
Scholastic is seeking pre-pub buzz by sending ARCs to devoted MySpace users. Aimee Friedman, author of The Year My Sister Got Lucky (Jan. 2008), will e-mail her MySpace friends, offering an advance copy of her novel to the first 100 who respond.
This month, Random House will partner with social networking site Gaia Online to promote Michael Scott's May novel, The Alchemyst. According to site statistics, Gaia—a virtual world with forums, games and customizable avatars—has nearly two million unique visitors a month. Along with receiving prominent mentions in the site's news and announcements sections, the title will be featured in the entertainment forum, where readers will be able to discuss the book. When teens post on the Alchemyst boards, they'll receive a downloadable image of the book for their avatars to display; author Scott can "sign" them when he visits the message boards.
Fandom and Fame
Now that everyone wants to be a star, some marketing campaigns let readers promote themselves along with the book.
For its lead spring 2008 title, debut author Robin Benway's Audrey, Wait!, Penguin's Razorbill imprint will hold a songwriting contest. In the novel, protagonist Audrey dumps her boyfriend, only to have him write a hit song about their breakup, launching his band—and her—into the spotlight. According to Romero, bands will write their own lyrics and music and upload them to a Web site where site visitors can vote on their favorite.
Several publishers are sponsoring writing contests: Simon & Schuster and Walden Media recently partnered with FanLib.com for a fan fiction contest using characters from Susan Cooper's The Dark Is Rising sequence to promote the October movie, and Simon Pulse is planning a contest tied to Scott Westerfeld's Uglies series. Holtzbrinck's Feiwel & Friends imprint is asking teens to submit stories about journeys they've taken, for inclusion in an online travelogue dovetailing with the release of debut author Autumn Cornwell's Carpe Diem in September, about a teen girl's trip through Southeast Asia. And Roaring Brook will partner with yabookscentral.com for a writing contest related to Holdup by Terri Fields (Roaring Brook/Brodie; Apr.). Throughout October, teens will be able to submit stories that involve fast food (the novel centers on a robbery at a fast-food restaurant), and the 20 best entries will win a signed copy of the book.
Other houses are reaching out to aspiring actors. At LBYR, Poppy is conducting a contest tied in to an upcoming made-for-DVD movie based on Lisi Harrison's Clique series. Girls can upload videos of themselves reading for the part of Claire or Massie for one of five chances to audition for the film. Later this fall, HarperTeen will offer a similar contest tied to Anna Godbersen's November novel, The Luxe, in which the chosen entrant will win a trip to New York City to film a "webisode" based on the book.
Tours, Remixed
Anyone who thinks it's tough to draw adults to an author event, should try attracting teens. "It's hard to make them do anything—it's like herding cats," says Jennifer Abbots, publicity manager at Henry Holt. "And often they're relying on their parents to get them there." So publishers are looking into new ways to get the word out about teen author events and are rethinking events (and tours) entirely.
That's given rise to the "blog tour," in which bloggers interview authors, and then post the conversations on their Web sites. For Kiki Strike author Miller, Bloomsbury organized a number of blog "appearances" over the summer, which included both one-on-one and group interviews. "While it's difficult to note a direct [sales] correlation, this 'tour' took place shortly after the paperback [of Inside the Shadow City] released in May, and we've since gone back for a second printing of it, since sales out of the gate were so strong," says Deb Shapiro, director of publicity at Bloomsbury. "They teased [The Empress's Tomb] on the tour as well, and we had quite a list of people requesting galleys, which we do know was a direct correlation to the blogging."
The authors of HCI's Girlology books are preparing for a fall blog tour in support of the series' second book, Hang-Ups, Hook-Ups, and Holding Out: Stuff You Need to Know About Your Body, Sex, and Dating (Oct.) to supplement traditional bookstore visits. The publisher is working with the Parent Bloggers Network, and the book will be reviewed on several parent-authored blogs affiliated with the network. Paola Fernandez Rana, director of public relations at HCI, admits that it's tough to measure how much these blog tours affect sales. But, she adds, "The cost is very low, and you're getting 20 different people with their own individual sites and opinions."
While Random House's inaugural Teen Voices Author Tours last year featured established writers on a joint tour, this October's version will consist of three debut novelists: Amber Kizer (Gert Garibaldi's Rants and Raves: One Butt Cheek at a Time), Lisa Shanahan (The Sweet, Terrible, Glorious Year I Truly, Completely Lost It) and Jake Wizner (Spanking Shakespeare).
Penguin will be sending authors Robin Benway (Audrey, Wait!), Jody Gehrman (Confessions of a Triple Shot Betty) and Polly Shulman (Enthusiasm) on a panel tour next spring, and is encouraging stores to incorporate the books' themes of music, coffee and romance into their events. The publisher saw the potential in going beyond a simple reading after an event with Laurie Halse Anderson at Books & Books in Coral Gables, Fla. "She gave a great talk, and at the same event they did a battle of the bands," Romero says. "Over 400 people came. If the author has a great personality or a really commercial story, you have to think differently about how to get teens to come out."
Online Exclusives
With heavy competition for teens' time, publishers are going to great lengths to get and keep their attention online.
For Jenna Bush's 25-city tour this fall for Ana's Story: A Journey of Hope, HarperCollins will launch a mini-site offering a glimpse at the First Daughter's travels across America while on tour with her friend Mia Baxter, Ana's Story's photographer. "It will offer up-to-the-minute information and behind-the-scenes anecdotes that should give an interesting perspective," says Diane Naughton, v-p of marketing for HarperCollins Children's Books, "particularly because of the friend dynamic." The tour updates will also be available on a dedicated MySpace page for the book.
This November, DK will publish John Farndon's Do Not Open (dubbed "an encyclopedia of the world's best-kept secrets"), and is filming a series of short videos that will be posted both on DK's Web page for the book and on YouTube. "It's a super cheap way of replicating the kinds of campaigns that TV and movie studies use for their 'edgier' projects," says Rachel Kempster, publicity manager at DK. The publisher is banking on an ongoing story arc and what Kempster calls a "guerrilla" aesthetic to generate excitement—and book purchases.
Bloomsbury USA is revamping its graphic-intensive mini-site for Kirsten Miller's Kiki Strike series to incorporate content from the second title, The Empress's Tomb (Oct.), and to add more interactive elements, says Shapiro at Bloomsbury. To tie into what she refers to as the series' "disgruntled Girl Scout" theme, there will be badges for download (in such fields as counterespionage and breaking and entering) and games involving undercover missions "where you might choose your hairstyle, clothing and whether or not you're bringing your nunchucks," Shapiro says. The site also features a blog "written" by main character Ananka.
Straight to the Source
Publishers are courting teens to serve as reviewers and informal focus groups. Earlier this year, Henry Holt Books for Young Readers launched the In Group, which sends monthly e-mails to more than 150 teen members, announcing each month's title. Abbots at Holt estimates that they realize a 75% return rate on reviews from the books they send out. "I've noticed that if we get a parental release from one area, there will be four or five more from that area within a few days," she says, "so I'm sure they're telling their friends." In April, Simon & Schuster began a similar program, the Pulse IT Board, which currently has over 500 members, and Random House is planning to launch Random Buzz, an ARC program that will offer teens two to three titles per season in exchange for reviews.
At HarperCollins, the First Look Teen program has evolved from just an ARC book club into a way of getting feedback not just on forthcoming novels, but on prospective book titles and even a future Web site redesign. "We're starting to use [First Look and MySpace friends] as our buzz agents, if you will," says Naughton at HarperCollins Children's Books. "For initial designs of our HarperTeen Web sites, we actually went to a combination of our 'friends' and had them choose between three designs. They overwhelmingly chose one design over the others, which definitely affected our actions." Earlier this summer, Harper asked its "buzz agents" to choose among prospective titles for a book by E. Lockhart, Sarah Mlynowski and Lauren Myracle (the winner: How to Be Bad).

"Aviation is emerging from the most difficult period in its history to date. This recovery is still fragile. It is under pressure from fuel costs, uncertain stability in regions, military conflicts, international terrorism and changes in the business model by low-cost carriers.
"On the other hand, traffic is growing. In Europe, we broke 29,000 flights per day on June 18. The highest traffic ever recorded was on September 10, with 29,490 flights. Delays are being contained. In fact, delays attributable to the en route segment are falling. Unit costs have fallen, too. From where we stand today, air traffic management (ATM) in Europe is looking good. We are not seeing the horror stories of 1999-2000," stated Victor Aguado, general director of Eurocontrol, in a bad-news, good-news assessment during a recent open day session at the agency headquarters in Brussels.
Fragmentation of Europe's airspace, a legacy of the region's history, has compromised the efficient use of a scarce resource. This problem is complicated by the density and nature of Europe's traffic patterns: 98 percent of European traffic departs from (or lands in) Europe and 74 percent of traffic is internal to the region.
When the EU Commissioner of Transport Loyola de Palacio launched the famous Single European Sky (SES) initiative in December 1999, she had the ambitious goal of reforming the architecture of European ATC to meet future capacity and safety needs by next year. Since then, the European ATM scene has been undergoing much change.
Since the EU is now a member of Eurocontrol, the two organizations are able to work closely together, using their combined mechanisms, procedures and expertise to ensure that the SES initiative is successful across Europe.
As Aguado recalled, "The European Organization for the Safety of Air Navigation's primary objective is to develop a seamless, pan-European air traffic management system that fully copes with the growth in air traffic, while maintaining a high level of safety, reducing costs and respecting the environment."
Now in its 44th year, the European agency continues its expansion both in membership and in the scope of its activities. Eurocontrol has also forged close links with the European Commission.
As Europe's leading center of expertise in air traffic management, Eurocontrol can be considered the ATM agency of Europe, just as EASA is the civil aviation safety agency of the EU (25 countries). It is not impossible to imagine that, one day, the two bodies will merge to form a single European agency, similar to the FAA in the U.S.
Safety, Security, Capacity and the Environment
Safety is Eurocontrol's number-one priority. The agency launched its Strategic Safety Action Plan after the 2002 Überlingen accident, in which a Tupolev Tu-154 and a Boeing 757 collided in flight. Safety experts from all over the continent developed a plan to correct perceived flaws in the safety systems. "The plan was put into action in February this year and we expect it to produce concrete results," said Aguado.
On the security front, Eurocontrol is also working with ICAO, NATO, the European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC), the European Commission and Europol on means of improving security in air traffic management. For instance, in cooperation with these partners, the agency is preparing a system for the automatic analysis of flight plans to filter out potential suspect aircraft, as part of the safety assessment of foreign aircraft (SAFA) program.
Balancing capacity and delays is bound to be a constant preoccupation for the agency, especially given the increased traffic the organization expects. From 1999 through 2000, traffic grew by 12 percent but delays fell 80 percent. Tools and programs can help, as the remarkable capacity increases achieved with the reduced vertical separation minimums (RVSM) program two years ago suggest.
Adopting a more global approach, Eurocontrol developed a European ATM Master Plan, which is a performance-oriented, not just technology-driven, plan. The plan describes future requirements, articulates strategic objectives and outlines managerial and institutional policies. Overall, it contains an operational vision to be achieved through incremental evolution in practical steps.
Interoperability of systems–both on the ground and in the air–is also a must. "We cannot afford incompatible development, either in Europe or in the rest of the world. We must make sure that the same stringent requirements for technology, equipment and processes are implemented all over the world.
"This plan should help coordinate requirements and ensure that the standards set are the same, hopefully all over the globe," emphasized Aguado. Indeed, Eurocontrol works closely with partners on the other side of the Atlantic as well as in Russia, the Middle East and North Africa.
With environmental issues gaining ever more prominence in Europe, Eurocontrol believes it has a role to play in helping to define aircraft performance and monitoring contributions from the aviation and ATM communities.
The European agency is presenting a paper to the ICAO assembly in which it will outline various pan-European environmental activities currently under way that it believes could usefully be applied globally.
Ground-air Communications: Datalink Coverage by 2007
Eurocontrol's biggest project currently under way is the Link2000+ datalink program. The agency has learned its lessons from the implementation of previous programs (8.33-kHz radios, BRnav and so on) and has adopted a different approach with Link2000+. Instead of mandating a change and watching operators order and install the required equipment at the last minute, Eurocontrol is introducing incentives, in this case route charge reductions, to encourage operators to equip their aircraft sooner rather than later. The goal is to have 75 percent of flights made by aircraft equipped for Link2000+ by the end of this decade.
Link 2000+ is a pan-European program managed by Eurocontrol to coordinate the implementation of controller-pilot datalink communications (CPDLC) in the core area of Europe by 2007.
CPDLC is a message-based communication system between pilots and controllers and offers much the same advantages over voice radio communication that e-mail has over the telephone, explained Alex Wandels, Link 2000+ program manager.
In the context of saturated ATC voice communication frequencies, CPDLC can relieve the workload of both controllers and pilots by providing silent, easily readable messages to the correct recipient. "It cannot replace all voice communications because it is for the moment slower than the radio, but it can take care of all routine, non-critical communications," noted Wandels.
Since its launch in September 2001, the Link 2000+ "pioneer" project has enjoyed some measure of success, with more than 120 aircraft destined to be equipped for ATN/VDL2 CPDLC. Implementation on the ground is also progressing on schedule. The incentive plans as well as the ruling for future mandatory equipage in Europe are not yet finalized.
Eurocontrol plans to implement CPDLC in the upper airspace of the Benelux countries, Germany, Austria, France, Italy, Spain and Portugal before the end of 2007. The agency is also proposing a new mandate, requiring that 15 area control centers and all new aircraft (with an mtow of more than 20 tons and less than 200 tons) be equipped for datalink services from Jan. 1, 2009. Old-generation aircraft will have to comply by 2012. The mandate would apply to flights in the airspace above FL285 in the Link 2000+ area.
Ensuring Implementation
The agency has launched Cascade (cooperative air traffic services through surveillance and communications applications deployed in ECAC) to ensure that future cooperative air traffic services (ATS) will move swiftly and safely from concept to implementation. The primary goal of this program is to enhance information and task-sharing between the air and the ground to improve safety and reduce delays.
"The future ATM system will be able to exploit airborne systems alongside advanced ground-based technology to deliver more capacity and safety in a more cost-effective manner. Deployment of these applications will offer the opportunity to reduce ground infrastructure costs and optimize controller and pilot workload, thereby increasing productivity, enhancing flexibility and improving airborne and ground situational awareness," underlined Wandels, who is also the Cascade manager.
The agency foresees implementing such key improvements as initial ADS-B, advanced CPDLC and datalink flight information services (D-FIS). It will make use of existing mode-S and VDL-2/ATN infrastructures where possible.
Under Cascade, a cockpit crew will be able to request and obtain a departure clearance to the destination and taxi clearance via datalink (CPDLC). The aircraft will then start to taxi; pilots and controllers will see other aircraft and ground vehicles through their datalink transmissions (ADS-B). While taxiing, the crew will request and obtain information on its destination airport through D-FIS.
The programs will undergo a series of operational trials in 2005-2006, with the first stream of implementation, addressing the limitations of radar-based surveillance, to start from 2008 onward.
The second phase, due to be implemented from 2010, is expected to introduce new ATM concepts where pilots and aircraft systems play a new role, based on knowledge of the surrounding traffic. Pilots will be able to perform new tasks and assist controllers in improving safety, capacity and efficiency. Controllers will have a better knowledge of the aircraft's future trajectory by accessing information available in the aircraft systems.

Two closely watched companies that offer consumers information about their genes have received licenses that will allow them to continue to do business in California, a state official said.
The licenses, granted to Navigenics and 23andMe, should help defuse a controversy that began in June when the California Department of Public Health sent "cease and desist" letters to the two companies and 11 others that offer genetic testing directly to consumers.
The letters said that companies could not solicit customers from California without receiving a license from the state to operate as a laboratory. And they said that doctors had to be involved in ordering genetic tests.
The letters were the most recent sign of concern that regulators at both the state and federal level are becoming increasingly concerned about the accuracy and validity of tests being sold through the Internet.
But the state's action also sparked concern that over-regulation could stifle a promising new industry. The media coverage of the action seemed to catch the state off-guard. Both sides appeared eager to resolve the issue.
"I think we're very satisfied that they have met the California requirements for licensure," Kathleen Billingsley, a senior official in the California public health department, said Tuesday.
Navigenics and 23andMe attracted the most focus of the companies receiving the letters. Both are based in Silicon Valley and offer services, costing from $1,000 to $2,500, that scan a person's whole genome, providing a variety of information about the risk of various diseases. Google is a backer of 23andMe, and one of the company's founders, Anne Wojcicki, is married to a Google co-founder, Sergey Brin.
The companies had argued that they were not offering medical testing but rather personal genetic information services, and that consumers had a right to information from their own DNA. The companies also said they did not need a license because the actual testing of the DNA samples was being done by outside laboratories that did have licenses.
But the two companies do their own interpretation of the raw genetic data. Now, after reviewing the procedures used by the companies, the state is satisfied that the companies' interpretation is based on the scientific literature, Billingsley said.
Billingsley said the companies also satisfied the requirement for a doctor to be involved. Navigenics already was paying a physician to review customer orders and now it appears that 23andMe might be doing something similar.
Linda Avey, a founder of 23andMe, declined to say on Tuesday what the company was doing regarding doctors. She said the company wanted to assure customers first that their privacy was being protected.
Mari Baker, chief executive of Navigenics, said she was satisfied with the outcome.
"It's a situation that in the end everyone wins," she said. "In the end, the state moved really quickly through this process. They were incredibly responsive."
DeCode Genetics, an Iceland-based company that offers a similar gene-scanning service to consumers, has also applied for a license, and the state has asked it for more information, Billingsley said.
She said four of the companies that received the letters in June have agreed not to solicit California customers, and the rest are either applying for licenses or talking to the state agency.
Both sides agreed that regulations would continue to be reviewed. "We wanted to try to work within the existing regulations but we think there will be an ongoing discussion of regulations in this new space," Avey said.

Construction continues on a showroom for 50 new and pre-owned Toyota and Holden vehicles and a 12-bay workshop in Frankton.
GWD Motor Group managing director Bob Crawford, of Invercargill, said this week the complex in Lucas Pl was expected to be open for business in late March or early April.
The Queenstown dealership had outgrown its premises in Gorge Rd and the new facility would provide better customer service, Mr Crawford said.
"We need to be where the local people and the retail area of town are," Mr Crawford said.
The 11 existing staff would be transferred and extra technicians were being interviewed.
GWD was working with a Wakatipu architect to mitigate the impact of the 8.5m-high building and 2504sq m footprint on the natural environment.
The location puts the Toyota and Holden retailer directly opposite Audi, Volkswagen and Subaru retailer Queenstown Motor Group in Hawthorne Dr.

Smoked steak at Miller's Guild in Seattle Ah, the good old days. When legendary masters like Arthur Bryant and Sonny Bryan manned the barbecue pits. A lot of people complain that barbecue just isn't what it used to be, and they're right. It's better. It's better in traditional barbecue hotspots, like Kansas City and Dallas. It's better in places where you'd never expect to find killer 'que, from Brooklyn to Minneapolis to L.A. A new generation of pit masters and grill masters has applied time-honored smoking and grilling techniques to the kind of meat most of us want to eat today: humanely and locally raised animals...Read more →
NEXT GENERATION OF GRILLMASTERS We've always believed the most important profession in America is teaching. (If life were fair, teachers would earn hedge-fund caliber salaries. After all, we're entrusting them with our future.) So it warms our hearts when we hear from a teacher like Allen Frecker from Hughes STEM High School in Cincinnati, Ohio, who thinks outside the box (the smoker box, that is!) when motivating students. Recently, the school...Read more →

Rosalind popped up for the first time I remember thinking "huh... I never saw that coming" and "I wonder if they decided that others - like Alcyone, Circe, Fiammetta and Illyria - were just too out there".
I'm just going to throw this out there but I think I might choose Alcyone Tabitha Wren or Tabitha Alycone Wren.
Also I was so about to suggest (half in jest) that you should consider Endora (I love Bewitched and this is definitely a GP name) but I just went back and realized you originally had a Eudora on your list. They seem to fit right in with Pandora and might be great alternatives depending on the combo. (Though Endora is a bit of a firecracker isn't she?)Little Lorelei - May 2016Endora - Freya - Merida - Viola - Zelda

[JURIST] Internecine conflict among factions of the rebel Lords Resistance Army (LRA) [MIPT backgrounder; JURIST news archive] in Uganda has killed a rebel commander wanted [arrest warrant] by International Criminal Court [official website] prosecutors, according to sources speaking to Reuters Sunday. Okot Odhiambo had been charged with crimes against humanity and war crimes associated with the LRA attacks on Ugandan refugee camps in 2003 and 2004.
Sources say that disagreements over a pending peace deal between the LRA and the Ugandan government prompted the infighting, as a result of which LRA leader Joseph Kony [BBC profile; JURIST news archive] failed to attend a signing ceremony this past week on the remote Sudan-Congo border. Kony fired the head of his negotiating team earlier in the week, citing a need for stronger guarantees of safety and financial security in the final deal. Kony was indicted [ICC materials; JURIST report] by the ICC for war crimes and crimes against humanity in 2005 but has requested that the ICC indictments be withdrawn in exchange for his cooperation. The Ugandan government has said it would use a traditional mediation system [JURIST report] or a special war crimes court [JURIST report] to counter the arrest warrants issued by the ICC, but has acknowledged that any decision to drop international charges would have to be approved by judges at The Hague. Reuters has more.

Indian E-Commerce vs New FDI Policy [with Infographic]
The new FDI (Foreign Direct Investment Policy) policy by Indian government has committed more of a confusion than a reform as far as 'online' retail sector or E-Commerce in India is considered, as the Indian government disallowed FDI in online retailing. As per the new policy yet to be implemented at state level in India, it has allowed 100% FDI for single brand retail outlets, and 51% for multi-brand retail outlets.
For example Apple can sell its branded products without any hassles what so ever, however it would be trouble some for other foreign e-commerce players which sells multi-brand products online.
In year 2012 the total e-commerce revenue in India is $1.6 billion, as per research firm Forrester and expected to be nearly 5 folds by $8.8 billion by 2016. But the new policy enforced, is this figure remain the same.
The lack of clarity in the policy has raised many question on future of e-commerce in India especially the Indian startups arena which have seen numerous success from past 4-5 years.
3 Biggest questions after new FDI policy:
- The E-Commerce biggest benefit is that it has no geographical location, however new policy will be implemented by state level (with choice for implementing or not), thus now suppose if one state allow FDI in e-commerce and other doesn't than can products be shipped across the boundaries of states within one country ?
- For existing single-brand online portals which have less than 100% stake (<51% due to restriction before new FDI policy) does this new policy allow them to eat local stakeholders rights.
- Can Indian owned E-Commerce entity get investments from foreign bodies be it foreign venture capital, private equity (PE) funds or foreign angel investor, as this is the big question which can hurt most to Indian e-commerce startups (if NO, than where is the reform?).
Some resolved question and clarification as of now:
- NOT Affected by new FDI policy –
- E-commerce players which have no inventory or say does not sell multi-brand products but only do the listing of products or comparision website such as eBay, Junglee.com etc. which send users to other websites to buy product rather than selling its own.
- Companies engage only in B2B e-commerce and not B2C model remain unaffected such as Alibaba.com.
- FDI in retail for e-commerce in any case i.e both single-brand or even multi-brand is disallowed because of the fact that FDI norms for multi-brand retail apply only to offline stores not for e-commerce.

Even so, advertisers still rush to write big checks to purchase these brief moments of airtime for one reason: to be part of an event that is uniquely American, bringing together every aspect of U.S. culture.
Every year, the broadcast features a military flyby and color guard, a self-consciously pop culture halftime show, and of course, the celebration of capitalism that is Super Bowl advertising, in which the very best creative minds in the industry try to keep us from getting up and heading into the kitchen for more nachos.
The commercials feature talking animals, love stories, action-adventure, comedy (always) and Clydesdales (also always). The commercials are mini narratives that reflect themes currently resonating in our collective psyche. Whether or not it is a flattering reflection is up for debate on an ad-by-ad basis and will be analyzed by the usual suspects.
Some ads arguably contribute to an unflattering reflection (for example, see almost every GoDaddy ad, ever). Still, for better or for worse, to advertise on the Super Bowl is to associate your brand with the American brand.
Another reason these expensive ads sell out months before the event is that for those companies who buy airtime on Super Bowl Sunday, there is a bigger venue and a longer game.
For controversial ads, there is also the potential for free replays on news programs, blogs and social media. In fact, critical successes or abject critical failures both hold the promise of making an ad go viral, with YouTube standing by to replay it as often as necessary. Make a big splash during the Super Bowl, and your ad is guaranteed to have a shelf life that goes far beyond the airtime purchased.
According to the study by Communicus, last year's ads worked best for new product introduction, with Beck Sapphire's "Singing Goldfish" commercial leading the way. And when you think about it, this makes sense. After all, many viewers are already sipping Budweiser products and crunching Doritos while watching homemade Doritos ads during the game.
For new advertisers, the Super Bowl is a chance to run with the big dogs and establish their companies as successful enough to be players in that other game-day matchup, between advertisers and the wallets of football fans across America and around the world.
In the end, companies are willing to pay exorbitant fees to get the American audience to associate their brands with the biggest cultural event of the year. They gain credibility just being seen during the same broadcast as such advertising icons as the Budweiser Clydesdales — which can have more long-term significance than whether we run out the next day to buy the latest gadget, or who won the game.

Providing Agri-environmental Public Goods through Collective Action: Lessons from New Zealand Case Studies
Agriculture is a provider of food and, to a certain extent, public goods such as biodiversity and landscape, but it can also have negative impacts on natural assets such as biodiversity and water quality. In addition to implementing policies that target individual farmers, different approaches are needed to promote collective action. The literature review and three New Zealand case studies (Sustainable Farming Fund, East Coast Forestry Project and North Otago Irrigation Company) have identified some findings including benefits and barriers of collective action and key factors for its success. Collective action should be given serious consideration in addressing agri-environmental problems.

Just another day at the office for Bills' coach [8:51 AM]
Buffalo News reports: '"I didn't go, "Hey, this is getting easier,' " Mularkey said. "If anything, you have to have a greater focus. It would be easy to take a step back, but you can't, not right now. You need to take a step forward and take what they did (further). We've had a productive quarter, a productive half. If we can keep those things going . . ."'
Mularkey guided by experience of QB coach Wyche [5:03 AM]
Rochester D&C reports: '"I've leaned on Sam a number of times," Mularkey said Monday. "I can't say I can remember being 0-4, but I can remember situations I was in as a position coach, as a coordinator, as a player, and fortunately I experienced them and have been around some head coaches and saw how they handled the situation and made a difference in the outcome of the season."'
Inside slant [5:02 AM]
CBS Sportsline reports: 'The team's next three games - at Baltimore and home to Arizona and the New York Jets - are against opponents that are a combined 9-6. But they are teams the Bills have to defeat in order to climb back to .500 and give themselves a shot at a playoff berth over the last half of the season.'
Strategy and personnel [5:01 AM]
CBS Sportsline reports: 'Rookie coach Mike Mularkey earned a well-deserved game ball for his first NFL win. He had a rough first half, which including some dubious decisions that helped put Buffalo into a 10-7 hole. But he made the right adjustments at halftime and the Bills hammered out a convincing victory by sticking to the run.'
Notes, quotes [5:00 AM]
CBS Sportsline reports: 'Bills owner Ralph Wilson winced watching the Bills' lethargic two-point loss to the New York Jets, calling his team "boring," and that he was tired of coach Mike Mularkey's smash-mouth style of football. What did he think after his team ate the final 6:22 of Sunday's 20-13 win over Miami by running the football? "Am I happy with smash-mouth football? Today, yes," said Wilson, who was celebrating his 86th birthday.'
Finally a Win! [4:59 AM]
WIVB-TV reports: 'It�s amazing how different a win feels. Mondays have been brutal for a long time. I go to the gym or the grocery store and people want me to give them answers. But, the questions change. People start to get that crazy feeling. They look at the schedule and ask. Do you think they could roll off a few wins in a row, and get back in the playoff picture?'
Henry Remains The Bills Starter Over McGahee [4:58 AM]
WGR-AM reports: 'Mularkey feels Sam Adams on the field tantrum with the coaches that cost him a benching for the second half was just a heat of the moment thing.'
Henry to retain Bills starting role when healthy [4:57 AM]
AP reports: '''Travis will be the starter and Willis will get more playing time as we go,'' coach Mike Mularkey said on Monday. ''I think due to injury, I don't think that's any case to make a change right now. (Henry) has been productive.'''
Bills sign WR Wilson to practice squad [4:56 AM]
AP reports: 'Wilson is an undrafted free agent out of Arkansas who signed with Detroit last April. The Lions released Wilson after he spent the first five weeks of the season on their practice squad.'
McGahee makes the most of his first start [4:55 AM]
Tonawanda News reports: 'It will be up to the coaching staff to keep them both happy. If not, healthy competition could turn into an unhealthy feud. The last things the Bills need right now is a divisive rift worthy of the Flutie-Johnson debacle of a few years ago. If that happens, one of them would have to go. The Bills could be sitting on running back situation that�s either dynamite or a powder keg. It�s up to them to light the right fuse.'
Ask Him Yourself: Mike Mularkey [5:43 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: 'We'll see how Travis is injury wise but if he is at full strength, 100 percent, then he'll start. They will both get reps, but as far as starting the game Travis will be the guy. He's been productive and missed last week due more so to the injury. We are fortunate to have two effective running backs.'
Ask Him Yourself: Tom Donahoe [5:43 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: 'Coach Mularkey was hired because we felt he was the best man for the job. His offensive background and his ability to communicate in get along with players was also a part of the reasons why we selected him. He has a very definite idea of how he wants to play offensive football. Some media members have inaccurately labeled it as smash-mouth football, which it really isn't. It is a brand of football where he wants to be physical and have players who are smart and to execute the talents of his players. Even though we have struggled in some of the earlier games you can see elements of Mike's offense and the Bills offense and what we want to do. In the second half of the game against Miami you saw the offense perform at a very efficient level and that's what we expect to continue to develop and to get some consistency with that.'
Bills Sign WR to Practice Squad [5:42 PM]
BuffaloBills.com reports: 'The Bills announced today that the team has signed wide receiver George Wilson to its practice squad.'
Adams frustrated by role in Bills defense [5:39 PM]
AP reports: '''He's just frustrated,'' Adams' agent, Angelo Wright, told The Associated Press on Monday. The 11-year veteran and two-time Pro Bowl selection believes that he is not being properly utilized, Wright said. Rather than pressuring the pocket, Adams is mostly asked to simply contain the middle and sometimes even drop back in coverage, not easy for a player who's listed at 335 pounds. ''It's often difficult when a defense doesn't let you exploit your talent,'' Wright said. ''Those guys want to attack. This guy's been winning games for a long time. And he just wants to win.'''
Bills grind out an old-fashioned victory [3:55 PM]
Niagara Falls Reporter reports: 'McGahee's afternoon not only led the Bills to their first win of 2004, it provided some reason to hope for the rest of the season. Thinking about getting anywhere near contention remains several consecutive wins away, but such a possibility is no longer pure fantasy. At least until next week.'
Bills Team Report [1:29 PM]
The Sporting News reports: 'McGahee was impressive in his first start, running 26 times for 111 yards. He hasn't fully regained the explosive burst he had before a major knee injury nearly two years ago, but he is effective because of his physical style. He gains a lot of yards after contact and works hard to finish runs.'
They Finally Get A Win [1:05 PM]
Erie Times News reports: 'HALFTIME: Bills losing. Me drinking.'
Wire aims Most High [12:53 PM]
Carlisle Sentinel reports: 'The main symbol for Wire's line represents progress, which he says means the desire of a person to be better today than he or she was yesterday. Wire includes a personal written explanation of what each symbol means on the hang tag. That way, he says, each garment comes with a little bit of his train of thought.'
Bills, Mularkey get win No. 1 [12:48 PM]
Olean Times Herald reports: '�We had some problems in the first half,� admitted middle linebacker London Fletcher. �But we regrouped at halftime, stepped up, got four sacks and really shut them down.�'
Dolphins find RB in Morris, but not a win [12:47 PM]
Olean Times Herald reports: 'The Dolphins were always seen as a title contender with their premiere back, because they could control the clock and rest their powerful defense. Morris showed glimpses that he can help Miami back to its winning ingredient.'
Spikes got the Bills �rolling� [12:47 PM]
Olean Times Herald reports: 'The crowd of 72,714 had only 1,253 no-shows.'
Now the Bills have another problem at RB [12:46 PM]
Olean Times Herald reports: 'So no matter how hard McGahee ran on Sunday, Henry�s credentials for toughness are well in place. However, the youngster made a case for more playing time and that�s become Mularkey�s problem ... and not a totally pleasant one.'
McGahee Shines In Buffalo's First Win [10:11 AM]
WGR-AM reports: 'Unfortunately, the only one that thinks Sam Adams is playing well is Sam Adams. Mularkey made an example out of Bobby Shaw last week. For about 750-thousand dollars of cap space it's well over due to make another. Adams should be told Monday to clean out his locker. I think the Bills can easily go 7-and-14 without him just as easily as they did with him. Adams is lazy in practice and during games and expects to be treated like a super star. He's also very, very out of shape and fat. The act is getting tired.'
Worst to firsts [8:59 AM]
Buffalo News reports: '"This is what I told my O-line," McGahee said, " "All you have to do is block the D-line. Don't worry about the linebackers, and I'll get the secondary.' "'
McGahee is worthy of feature presentation [8:58 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'The question now is, what do you do when Henry comes back?'
Victory proves Mularkey's making progress [8:57 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'Mularkey has never deviated from the course. He's never bought into the empty, wishful promise of desperate times requiring absurdly desperate measures, even as 0-0 became 0-4. From the onset of minicamp he's carried the flag for hard-nosed, common-sense football, only to discover that common sense isn't so common. His Bills would do the darndest things to beat themselves, and then, the next week, do them all over again.'
Edwards' play sends Adams to bench [8:57 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'Bills coach Mike Mularkey said Adams was pulled because the team felt backup Ron Edwards played better. Edwards finished the game with a career-high two sacks and four tackles. "We just felt like we were getting done what we wanted done with Ron Edwards," Mularkey said. "He was being extremely disruptive and just kept that flow going."'
Bills' offensive line shoves back [8:56 AM]
Buffalo News reports: '"I'll tell you what, they did a tremendous job for me today," said quarterback Drew Bledsoe. "They did a great job in the running game, and in the passing game I had plenty of time to throw. We accounted for (Miami's) one guy that is truly a special pass rusher, and the other guys just stood up and gave me great time to throw the ball today."'
O.J. has suite time watching Bills win [8:55 AM]
Buffalo News reports: 'He accepted an invitation to sit in the luxury box from Chris Hall, a former Lockport resident who lives in South Florida. "I'm a little surprised that it's been so long since I've been back," Simpson said. "My whole point to my friends was that I was going to be under the radar. I came here to watch a football game, and that's that. That's what I'm doing."'
Morris' return is a fine one [8:55 AM]
Buffalo News reports: '"I don't gain my motivation and desire from outside circumstances," he said. "If that was the case, next week we're playing the Rams, and I never played for them, so . . . I get motivation from myself. My best game did happen to come against my old team. That's kind of the way it plays out sometimes."'
