Additional APIs available for Java ME
Java ME is based on different APIs (JSR) available in mobile devices, apart from the configuration (like CDC or CLDC) and the profile (like MIDP or Personal Profile).
You have to be sure that the device the MIDlet is running on has the API before using it. You can check over platform information, for example for Series 40 or S60, to find which JSRs are available.
API Groups
There are two standards defined to reduce fragmentation, grouping many of the APIs in one platform name:
Non standard APIs
Many APIs are specific to some vendor or operator. In this category, we can find:
Standard APIs
There are 82 JSRs defined in JCP about Java ME. Many of them are still in draft and will be available in future devices and some were deprecated. The list of Java ME JSRs is http://jcp.org/en/jsr/tech?listBy=1&listByType=platform
The most common additional APIs found on mobile devices are:
- Wireless Messaging API (WMA) (JSR 120)
- Mobile Media API (MMAPI) (JSR 135)
- FileConnection & PIM API (JSR 75), also known as PDA Optional Packages
- Bluetooth API (JSR 82)
- Security and Trust Services API (SATSA) (JSR 177)
- Location API (JSR 179)
- Mobile 3D Graphics API (JSR 184)
- Wireless Messaging API 2.0 (JSR 205)
- Content Handler API (JSR 211)
- Scalable 2D Vector Graphics API (SVG API) (JSR 226)
- Payment API (JSR 229)
- Advanced Multimedia Supplements API (AMMS API) (JSR-234)
- Mobile Internationalization API (JSR 238)
- Contactless API (JSR 257)
- Web Services API (JSR 172)
- JDBC for CDC (JSR 169) (this isn't available in CLDC/MIDP devices)
- Java Binding for the OpenGL ES API (JSR 239)
- Mobile Sensor API (JSR 256)

By NEKESA MUMBI MOODYAP Entertainment WriterNEW YORK (AP) -- Aretha Franklin won't say what caused her latest health problems, but says she's had a "miraculous" recovery and is looking forward to performing soon."My treatments are going very well. My last CAT scan, my doctor at the CAT scan and everyone who sees this says that this is miraculous, absolutely miraculous," Franklin said in a phone interview with The Associated Press on Tuesday."I was talking to Smokey Robinson, my oldest best friend Smokey, talking about the fact that some doctors are not very well acquainted with faith healing. And Smokey said, `Well, they just don't know who your healer is."'The 71-year-old Queen of Soul has canceled several concerts and public appearances over the last few months due to unspecified health concerns. On Monday, she said she was unable to personally accept an award honoring her work with civil rights from Major League Baseball on Saturday in Chicago.When asked directly what her health concern was, Franklin declined to go into specifics: "I'm not one to go into my personal health things."But she said it was very common to women and "I just had to deal with it." She said it was partly related to the health concern she had about three years ago that led her to cancel shows at that time. Franklin acknowledged that she had worries about her health."Anytime you have cancellations you should be concerned. But all prayer is good, and keep me in your prayers until I am 100 percent, not 85, and back onstage," she said. Franklin said she's been spending her time resting, eating right and taking better care of herself, which has led to a decline in her blood pressure. She said she's looking forward to performing at Radio City Music Hall in New York City in February but isn't rushing back to the stage."The most important thing is my comfort and going at my pace. Nothing is more important than my health," she said. Franklin is also planning another album. "I can't wait for that," she said. "They're working on the tracks now." But she seemed most disappointed that she won't be able to go to next week's U.S. Open tennis championships in New York City, where she planned to make a bit of a fashion statement. "I had really got this hot, hot, hot three-piece Escada short set to wear ... with some fine platforms but doggone it, I'm just not up to traveling quite as far as New York," she said. "It will have to wait. ... (though) I could very well still get there this year."------Online: http://www.arethafranklin.net/us/home

Rock CD - Review: The Future
This excellent new album continues the stylistic experiments inaugurated with I'm Your Man, with only a few nods to the jaundice folkiness that made him so popular with hypochondriacs and raving paranoiacs in the first place. Likewise, his lyrical concerns have broadened beyond familiar themes of seduction and betrayal, with numerous forays into the political amphitheatre and committed stabs into the belly of the cynical, hard-boiled nineties.
"'Waiting For A Miracle,' 'Anthem' and 'Light As The Breeze' wouldn't sound out of place on albums like Songs From A Room and Various Positions were it not for the slightly eerie syncopated backbeats and state-of-the-art (i.e. posh) production… this album cements Cohen's reputation as wry nineties ironist and all-round spokesman for the human condition. Little short of a bloody marvel.
-- Rock CD, December 1992

Skip the Expensive Night Out & Have a Cozy Night In with Film Movement's DVD-of-the-Month Club
xml:lang="en" lang="en" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
Skip the Expensive Night Out & Have a Cozy Night In with Film Movement's DVD-of-the-Month Club
Hoboken, NJ (PRWEB) January 21, 2009
A Film Movement membership allows you to enjoy award-winning films from around the world. Each month you will receive, to own, the best independent and foreign films straight from the world's top film festivals–such as Cannes, Sundance, Berlin and Tribeca. You will receive the films either before or at the same time that they are in theaters. Plus, every DVD comes with a short film.
Film Movement is the only first-run, film-of-the-month club for award-winning independent and foreign films that are popular film festival favorites, but might not make it to 'a theater near you.'
A Film Movement membership allows you to experience the top foreign and independent films first, before they are available in theaters and long before they are available to the general public on DVD (via Netflix, Blockbuster or Amazon). Such films include "The Way I Spent The End Of The World" executively produced by Martin Scorsese and Wim Wenders, "The Party's Over" starring Philip Seymour Hoffman, "Long Life, Happiness And Prosperity" starring Grey's Anatomy's Sandra Oh, and summer sensation Ellen Page in "Wilby Wonderful." Members also receive award-winning International favorites.
In addition to a feature film, each monthly DVD comes with a short film from a hot new director. Previous shorts in the Film Movement Series include the first films from both Sofia Coppola ("Lost in Translation") and Mike Mills ("Thumbsucker").
Film Movement memberships are available in 3, 6 or 12-month subscriptions at 20 percent off – as little as $ 12.00 per month including shipping and handling.

A man's bullet proof vest looks the same as a woman's body armor on the outside. Of course, the woman's is contoured to fit her curves.
However, when several female officers with the Detroit Police Department provided their height, weight and bra cup sizes, they never imagined a good portion of the rank-and-file at DPD would see it.
"On the third page, the females were listed. Unfortunately and embarrassingly, the cup sizes of the females were listed on that third page, and it was really just a clerical error," said Assistant Chief James White.
Police sources said about three weeks ago, Commander Dwayne Love was asked to notify the officers that their bullet proof vests were ready to be picked up. So he forwarded an email to the commanders, who then forwarded it to the supervisors, who then forwarded it to the officers.
White claimed Love didn't know the weight, height and bra cup sizes of the women were included on the attached Excel spreadsheet until it was too late.
"Conscientious, very hard working command officer. However, it's an embarrassing situation, and I'm going to be addressing the issue formally with him over the next couple weeks," White said.
"Once we complete our investigation, there will be corrective action."
We have learned several female officers, who say they have faced ridicule from fellow officers, with the help of their union are filing two grievances against the department and one complaint with EOC. Even if Love made an innocent mistake, the damage they feel has already been done.
White said on Thursday he and Chief Craig plan to meet with the female officers impacted by this to apologize and assure them that it will never happen again.

Evening Reading: Holding Down the FortA couple of weeks from now, the Tasmanian Devil-like gaming maelstrom called E3 will be over. For now, schedules are being finalized, appointments are getting booked, and stomachs are gurgling with equal parts stress and excitement. Yep. It's that time of year again.
Garnett and Brian are out recording the Weekend Confirmed podcast, Alice is likely asleep in the UK, and Mr. Faylor is very much enjoying his recently-acquired Kindle. And me? As the title of this evening's chatty suggests, I'm just keepin' the home fires burning, while trying not to let all the time I've been spending in Rockstar's Wild West epic completely destroy my social life.
Also, don't forget that "Game 1" of the NBA finals between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Boston Celtics airs this evening. Regardless of the outcome, I predict an all-out war.

Three boxes of 25 3-gallon bags (17" x 18")
Rated 4.4 out of 5 by 8 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by JohnW Bio-bags best product I have found yet. We have a large family and the bags hold a lot. Recommend them totally August 11, 2011
Rated 1 out of 5 by twomuddychildren near miss We love the idea of the BioBags, but the reality isn't so impressive. We used the BioBags in our kitchen scrap bucket, and liked how easy it was to empty the bucket into the composter. The bottom of the bag dissolves a bit once it's wet, but hey, you've got to wet down the compost anyway, right? It's easy enough to use some of that water to rinse out the scrap bucket, too. BUT - after using BioBags for roughly six months, the composter started filling up - and we weren't getting useable dirt from it. A year later, we went through the heap and found whole BioBags, some of them many months old. The BioBags shredded at the touch of a spade, but didn't degrade. Don't know why they didn't break down, but once we stopped using the BioBags, the composter resumed making lovely rich dirt. Very disappointing! July 19, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by LisaR No more yucky bucket cleaning I love the bags. I've used one per week for the last 4 weeks and none have leaked or started early decomposition so my bucket has stayed clean. As a result I don't mind taking the compost out ... previously I dreaded the inevitable yucky bucket-cleaning. December 22, 2010
Rated 5 out of 5 by Bobsie Biobags Great way to reduce the mess in your kitchen compost container AND stay green. Just wrap it up, take it out to the bin and you're done. Each box comes with plenty of bags and they hold quite a bit so the purchase is well worth the investment! August 2, 2010
Rated 5 out of 5 by ngb38 Great product Very happy with the purchase of these bags. Had been using an old tupperware, in which everything smelled badly. These bags, in combination with a well vented container make in-house compost material collection very easy. January 14, 2010

Your kitchen compost bag dimensions seem too big (17 x 18). The composter is 11 x 9 x 9.
5 years, 2 months ago
Number One Contributor
Answer:You have to take into consideration that you want the bag to be longer than the length of the bucket because the bag is going to spread out as you fill the bucket. You would use the compost bucket size bags 14-9332.

The picture that you have for this product isn't for the kitchen compost bags, it's for the regular kitchen bags. You'll notice that the box picture lists the dimensions of the bags as 24" X 28 " and list a capacity of 13 gallons. Do you carry the product that is pictured here, the regular kitchen bags? Thank you.

Answer:We do not carry the Kitchen Bags any more because a lot of customers didn't like that they weren't very sturdy for trash. We do have lawn and leaf bags that are 39"L x 32½"W there item number is 14-933.

text: Police say the death of a 9-year-old boy may not have been an accident after he fell to nine stories to his death. So how can something like this happen to someone so young? Investigators tell FOX 2 that Jarod Barnett either jumped or fell from the ninth floor window of his family's apartment at the Young Manor in the 2500 block of West Grand Blvd. around 5:30 p.m. Wednesday. Police say the boy had threatened to hurt himself in the past.Witnesses say Barnett lay motionless on the ground as police loaded him into a cruiser and rushed him to Henry Ford Hospital where he was pronounced dead on arrival.Police are trying to determine what led to the incident, but sources tell FOX 2 the boy had gotten into trouble for stealing something from a nearby store. Sources say Jarod may have been scared of the consequences of his actions and afraid of being punished.Click on the video player to watch an interview with child psychologist Dr. Carol Van Dyke.Below are several links to mental health resources:http://www.waynecounty.com/hhs_mh.htm http://www.occmha.org/ http://www.mccmh.net/ http://www.ewashtenaw.org/government/departments/community_mental_health/mh_csts_wcho.html

Quick story before you watch the video...
(front page image via YouTube video screenshot) The little girl's name is Adelaide and she's 4 years old. Here's the description that her dad Ben posted with the video on YouTube.
"She thought she kept hearing fireworks and couldn't sleep, so we sang to keep her mind preoccupied. In the end, nothing competes with fireworks."
A couple of things struck me while watching the video:
1) It takes a secure man to play a pink ukulele.
2) Cute jammies
3) I think it's cool that this guy has taught his daughter a song written in 1926.
4) Watch it all the way through to the end. The final "shhh" killed me.
And finally, I apologize now for the fact that this song will be stuck in your head for a while.

Unfortunately, we do not ship to your country.
The rear derailleur is the most exposed part on the bicycle. If force is applied to this part, the bike frame or the rear derailleur could be damaged. To prevent damage on these expensive parts, the rear derailleur is connected to the frame with a rear derailleur hanger. If lateral force is applied to the rear derailleur, for example by a fall or during transport, it absorbs the force and protects the frame and the rear derailleur from damage. In this case it breaks or bends.
A bent or broken rear derailleur hanger needs to be changed.
Hint: Check from time to time if the rear derailleur hanger is not bent. In many cases a bent derailleur hanger results in a malfunctioning rear derailleur.
1. Check the rear derailleur hanger as follows: Lean the bicycle on a wall and look at the hanger from behind. The cage of the rear derailleur hanger should be positioned plumb-vertical to the sprockets.
Picture 1
2. If the hanger is bent or broken, you need to change it. Firstly, unscrew the rear derailleur. Picture 2
3. The hanger is attached to the frame with two small allen screws, of either 2mm or 2,5mm.Picture 3
4. You can attach the new hanger in the same way. Always mind the correct torque. Picture 4
Apply grease to the hanger to avoid creaking sounds.
Ensure that all bolts and screws are tightened to the correct torque. The correct torque is indicated on the component itself, in the bike manual provided with your new bike, or here in the Technical Support Center.

Welcome, summer!
Thanks for your sweet comments about my new cowl pattern. You should see some of the others too: Nova's Birthday Cowl, Caro's Philly Cowl and I'm certain that Ashley and Minty are working up their patterns as I type! Look for them in the coming weeks because nothing says summer like cowl knitting.
While mowing last week, Aaron found a rabbit nest a mere five feet from our tomato garden. I had already noticed some leaves nibbled down to stumps. Sadly, this could not remain. The rabbits can have any plants but tomatoes! Lawanna told me how to move the burrow and so that's what we did this weekend.
Between this and a trip to a nearby farm with chickens, geese, turkeys, ducks, peacocks and ponies, Beatrix squeezed a whole childhood's worth of Nature into two days. She was delighted, terrified and, most importantly, exhausted.
And as for the bunnies, there were five of them and all five are still alive and settling nicely into the new burrow. I feel terribly guilty about uprooting helpless babies so I've been checking in on them every day.
I took some time this weekend to work on a few sewing projects. Here is the latest addition to the toddler wardrobe.
Pattern: Butterick 3782
Fabric: Feedsack III Daisies – Blue by Windham Fabrics
I bought three yards of this on eBay last winter so you will certainly see more of it in the future. I used about a yard of it and made the size 2 dress, which is a little big (wide) but otherwise fits well. These tank dresses make diaper changes a breeze and allow lots of room to grow. I also like the idea of dressing my daughter in something that is not bubblegum pink from Target.
While my zippering skills have improved, I admit that I ripped out two zippers this weekend. I am surprised and relieved that this zipper looks clean (there was a great deal of cursing setting it in).
The pleats were supposed to be basted in place until the bodice and skirt were sewn together. However, I rather liked how the stitching looked so I left it in place.
Lastly, I keep meaning to blog the lovely socks I knit in transit to Philadelphia last weekend. As I was catching up on blog reads this morning, I saw that Tiennie practically wrote my post for me! As it turns out, we both started a pair of socks with some Sundara yarn on the way to Philadelphia, we traveled to the same yarn shops and we finished our socks on the way home. The travesty is that we missed each other by mere days!! I suppose this means I should be looking for excuses to travel to Seattle!
Pattern: Fancy Silk Socks for a Child of 5 or 6 Years from Knitting Vintage Socks by Nancy Bush
Yarn: Sundara Sock in "Dahlia" from Nova
Modifications: I separated the cuff and the leg with two rows of purl. Also, I did not knit the lacy cables down the stockinette ribs because I thought it looked like overkill in the book. As it turns out, I should have waited a day or two for Terhi's magnificent version. I might need to give these another try. Katy also just started a pair. See? All the cool kids are doing it. You need a pair.
As it turns out, I missed a glaring error with the one sock until it came time to take the FO pictures: one of my lace panels abruptly stops on its way to the heel flap. I would never frog a sock back to the heel once the pair is deemed finished so I will live with a little imperfection. Pam sealed the deal by pointing out that less lace will make the heel more sturdy in shoes.
In the end, a 72-hour pair of socks? What a deal. I wonder if this is what it would be like to be unemployed and kid-free (or, in college) as a knitter. I could knit the world socks! Stay tuned for more sewing and a mad rash of startitis!

Wow! 72 hours? Color me impressed. Beatrix's dress is adorable too. And the bunnies? So glad to hear that they are doing well! B's face is priceless as she's looking in the bucket!!
AND after Beatrix grows out of it length-wise, it will be a super-chic tunic to wear over jeans!
Great socks and I'm always impressed by the clothes you make for your daughter. Great fabric selection and this is no exception!
ok, I'm definitely going to crank out some of those tank dresses for the niece — love the little pleats!
What a lovely post, cute animals + lovely sewing + pretty knitting in a gorgeous yarn, what more can a girl ask for? I love the socks, I have that yarn and now you are giving me startitis as I am about to finish the Sundara socks that I am currently working on. x
oh my goodness that is the smallest bunny ever!!!
Did you move the mama too??
Love the dress, totally cute!
That is the best curious child photo. EVAR!
Also, the best childhood dress. You can practically feel it soaking up the memories. And in twenty years, it'll be pulled out of a suitcase under a bed or in an attic, and she'll say 'God! I remember that dress!' And you can say 'I made that for you. I bought the fabric off of ebay.'
Or maybe I'm projecting my own childhood. Except the ebay part, obvs!
I love the baby bunny photo! Too cute! Glad they are settling into their new home….
Super cute dress – anything non pink is a nice change!
The socks – wowza! I have had that pattern in my queue forever. Long live Nancy!
such cute bunnies! i'm so glad they all made it fine to their new burrow. the dress for B is so cute. the pleats really make it.
What an adorable little dress! Lucky Beatrix. :) And such a cute little bunny – glad to hear that they're settling in well to their new home.
Gorgeous socks!
Oh, you're doing two things I'm itching to do right now: sew and knit socks! (baby rabbits sound good too) If only there was more time and just mental space in my life! Love the socks and love the dress. So cute!
The dress is so sweet, and I love that print. Beatrix is so adorable in it! I love the expression on her face as she is looking into the bunny bucket.
And the socks… yes, I definitely need a pair of those. Yours look great!
Lovely lovely socks! Thanks for the link, never been one of the cool kids before. :-D
The photo of Beatrix peeking at what I assume is a bucket full of baby bunnies is priceless! I'm sure I'd have a similar expression if faced with a bucket 'o bunnies. :)
So glad to hear that the moving of the bunnies went well… Beatrix must have LOVED getting to help with that… you know, I still have a couple of baby Holland Lops that need homes if you want to get her one as a pet :o)
Gorgeous dress and socks… I just can't seem to get things done nearly as fast as you do… I'm jealous.
You were kinder to your bunnies than we were to our anthills, which we doused with boiling water.
I'm with you on the "no bubble-gum pink from Target" clothes. Especially since my daughter is undeniably a redhead, pink is NOT her color. I just wish I had more time to sew for her.
we have bunnies, i just don't know where they live. where did you move the burrow to? how did you do it?
anyway the dress is very cute. and miss B. is adorable.
Every time you sew B something, I swear, I feel like I need to make someone's girl-child a cute dress (keep in mind, I don't really sew clothes). I am so glad that you found a good pattern for that Sundara yarn, the socks look great!
Too many beautiful things to comment on. Your gorgeous daughter, her beautiful dress, baby bunnykins, rosy socks… All so beautiful!
She's so adorable! Love the dress and socks! And darn it for missing you all in Philly. I was so close. You definitely need to come to Seattle!
Beatrix looks lovely in her dress – love the material. Your socks look great too & consider the missing lace as your signature on the sock.
Love those socks! I knit them (well, one of them) as written and love the way they turned out. Yours are awesome too – amazing how a small change gives the socks such a different look!
All far too cute, with B being the highlight!
Cute as dress. Well done for moving the bunnies.
I love your socks

New developments surrounding convicted serial killer Anthony Sowell.
A State Supreme Court ruling means Sowell will live at least a little longer. The court just granted a stay of his execution since his first full appeal hasn't been filed yet.
19 Action News has learned that the attorneys handling Sowell's appeal took themselves off the case over a dispute about how much the court would pay them. The court appointed a new defense team.
51-year-old Sowell was sentenced to death for the murder of eleven women between June 2007 and September 2009. The victims' remains were found inside and outside of Sowell's Imperial Avenue home in Cleveland.
Sowell had been set to die as early as October of this year.Copyright 2012 WOIO. All rights reserved.

Myles, I know a grandpa who left the house forgetting he had the baby sleeping in the crib and he watched the child often. I know another mom who went into the store forgetting the had a baby in the car...she almost always had a child or two with her...thankfully it wasn't too hot and wasn't a long shopping trip. I know another mom who forgot she had a baby a few weeks earlier and left the house with her husband and took a long walk.
I think forgetting a child, generally a sleeping child is much more common than we think. It's just thankfully it doesn't usually end tragedy.

Hi there! It's been a long time since I've been on APA. It's changed! Is there anyone starting a December IVF cycle? I just started stimming today & am praying for a good response. Our DS is almost 17 months and we're praying to add another miracle baby to the family.
Wishing everyone good luck with their cycles and a in time for the holidays.

No I am not a female. However I need some advice.
I was with my partner last night. Long story short. The condom broke, I did not cum, however I'm sure there was pre-cum. I know pre-cum still contains sperm. Now when I pulled out, the condom was wet, I couldn't tell if it was either or all of the above Pre-cum, her cum, or the lube on the condom.
We have had this accident before, and she took Plan B. Now, this is happening again, and I know she doesn't want to take Plan B again due to health reasons. I can't force her, so what can I do.
I'm stressing like hell, she's telling me not to worry. But baring a child at 22 is my worst nightmare.
It's been about 20 hours since we've had sex, and I know your supposed to take Plan B within the first 24 hours..if you do take it.
What should I do?

I know the real season doesn't start for another month. But, I'm fired up for football nonetheless! The preseason gets under way this week and I'm ready for some hard hits. Preseason story lines across the NFL are always more bark than bite. It just goes to show that the salacious thirst we have for football is hard to satisfy. Here are a few of the big questions on my mind as we get ready for the real deal.
Can QB Christian Ponder guide the Vikes to another playoff appearance?
Whether it's fair or not, the starting quarterback seems to always get the all of the accolades or all of the blame depending on how the final score shakes out. Ponder has shown flashes of brilliance at times, but has yet to breakthrough to become elite at his position. He has all the help in the world this year. The reigning MVP at running back in Adrian Peterson. New wide receivers, Greg Jennings and rookie, Cordarrelle Patterson. And, a returning offensive line that should be one of the best in the league. So, it's time to put up or get out for Ponder. He has backup QB, Matt Cassel breathing down his neck if he falters. The only piece he lost from last year was an explosive Percy Harvin at wide-out. Reports from Training Camp in Mankato, MN have second year WR, Jarius Wright picking up the offense quicker than expected. He should fill the Percy void. Defenses will be prepared for an onslaught of Adrian. If they pack the box up front, that should give Ponder opportunities to sling the ball deep. He had some of the lowest attempts and completions for long pass plays last year. If he's healthy, that should change. Ponder has the tools. Now he needs to utilize them for the Vikings to have success.
Sophomore slumps?
The NFL was inundated with flashy, young talent at the quarterback position last year. Guys like, Robert Griffin III in D.C, Russell Wilson of the Seahawks, Colin Kaepernick in San Francisco and Andrew Luck of the Colts took the league by storm. History says not all of those guys will be as good again this year. Let's start with RGIII. He tore his knee up at the end of last year. Will he still be as explosive as he was? We'll have to wait to find out. As he continues his rehab, he will not make an appearance in any preseason games. I think Russell Wilson has what it takes to make it in this league. But, Seattle will depend a lot more on the running game this season. When you have a beast like Marshawn Lynch in the backfield, that makes sense. Wilson also lost a big acquisition when WR Percy Harvin went down with another injury. Percy was expected to play a big role in that offense and might not even see the field for a few months. Kaepernick took his team to the Super Bowl and almost won the whole thing. He has most of that same team back and the 49er's have added veteran WR Anquan Boldin into the mix. Boldin will be a big target that the QB should find often. Andrew Luck reminds me of Peyton Manning. Yes, they both got drafted and played for the Colts. But, it goes deeper than that. They both exhibit immense composure and make the plays that need to be made. Of those four guys, I expect Kaepernick to have the best winning record. Luck will come out on top in the statistical department.
Who's next?
What rookies will make an impact this year? Most of the early rounds of the draft were spent on trench guys. Players who work either the offensive or defensive lines. Those men are crucial to their team's success, but will be hard to know watching from the outside how good they really are. Some guys I'm excited to see on the field are, wide receivers Tavon Austin with the Rams and Cordarrelle Patterson of the Vikings. Both are dynamic receivers who will also see time returning kicks. The big question in the Big Apple is about the starting quarterback for the Jets. It's obvious the fans want rookie, Geno Smith. Smith slipped down into the second round to New York on draft day due to his off the field mentality. He has all the skills in the world, but it remains to be seen as to how will he handle success and/or failure. Same thing with rookie QB, EJ Manuel in Buffalo. The Bills have been bad for a long time. They took a gamble on drafting Manuel at 16th overall. For their sake, I hope it pans out. My dark-horse of the new crop of footballers is running back, Le'Veon Bell in Pittsburgh. The Steelers should have a solid team and Bell looks like he fits right in. Don't be surprised if he's starting when the season kicks off.
Who's on the Hot Seat?
With as much money that goes into and out of football teams, the executive brass want a winning product on the field. When that doesn't happen, heads will roll. Some head coaching skulls you could see this year include those of the Cowboys, Jets, Panthers and Lions. It's got to be a constant pressure-cooker in Big D coaching for the owner, Jerry Jones. Not only does Jones own the Cowboys and their 1-million dollar stadium, he's also the General Manager. Jerry's team hasn't won a Super Bowl since 1995 and he won't wait much longer for Jason Garrett to get him another ring. I imagine he's on one of the shortest leashes in the league. Detroit has a decent team, but can't ever seem to get over the hump. Jim Schwartz needs to win in a very competitive NFC North division. Just throw the damn ball to Calvin Johnson! Remember when we all thought Cam Newton would take over football like Jordan did for basketball? Yeah, that's kind of slowed down. After his rookie season, we haven't heard much from the Panthers. Ron Rivera's seat is definitely getting toasty. And, then there are the, J-E-T-S Jets, Jets Jets. Rex Ryan got stuck with a sub-par QB in Mark Sanchez. Now, Sanchez and rookie quarterback, Geno Smith are competing for the starting job in New York. The only chance Rex has to save his hide is to go with the rookie and hope he can win you a few games.
Needless to say, the season starts soon. There's nothing like a month of the preseason to whet your appetite for the main course.

An army of the undead invaded the University of Michigan campus in Ann Arbor on Tuesday and while it may sound silly at least one professor thinks you can learn a lot from a zombie.The walking dead invaded the school of public health as part of an exercise for students to understand emergency preparedness tips and to raise awareness about being ready for a disaster. If you are ready for a zombie attack, you are ready for just about anything. Dr. Eden Wells, the epidemiology professor who organized the event said, "real zombies don't exist but it's a way of exemplifying we never know what the next hazard will be and we never know how it will impact us. This exercise couldn't come at a better time with the bombing in Boston and explosions in West Texas, the message is be ready for anything.""I don't want the community to believe we are having fun at the expansion of true disaster that has occurred especially in the last week or so. Boston brought a lot of things home to my class. They brought a lot of things home to all of us as U.S. citizens. But if you look at how well Boston and places like West Texas responded, it's because they've been doing years of preparedness activity and exercises," Wells said. And students we spoke with agree, "Disaster preparedness is not the most exciting topic so getting students engaged and getting a preparedness kit and a flu outbreak or something. The zombie is something popular in the media. So this is an easy way to get students engaged and excited about participating in this topic," one student said.But being ready isn't limited to the unthinkable. A terrorist attack, a flood, natural disaster. Flu epidemic, it could be anything." So what could you do if disaster strikes? "We encourage you to have a supply of food, up to a week or two weeks. Water for yourself and family. Depending on what kind of event is going on, there are different preparedness tests we can offer to the general public to help them be safe and healthy in case of an emergency to help them be safe," another participant said. Four times as many students who typically attend Epidemiology 651, "Epidemiology and Public Health Management of Disasters," were on hand Tuesday to welcome -- or become -- the undead. The zombie exercise was modeled after a curriculum designed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and a handful of CDC staffers also participated. Once the 90-minute exercise concluded, faculty, staff, students and those sporting fake blood and "biohazard" stickers adjourned to a hallway near the main entrance to the building, where they took part in a "flash mob"-style dance to Michael Jackson's "Thriller." Wells said she thinks many students left with a better "understanding that preparedness is not so simple. We can't just tell people to be prepared, we need to exercise it all the time. And sometimes it needs to be in a fun way like this.".------Online:School of Public Health zombie apocalypse site: http://sph.umich.edu/zombie/CDC's Office of Preparedness and Response site: http://www.cdc.gov/phpr/zombies.htm
