A wee BloodyPulpit:
1. Ran into this at RyanSciara's CellarRat in KansasCity. Not a label I recognized, though did, of course, recognize the name. Apparently a distant (in time) relative of AgostanHaraszthy and (apparently) trying to trade on the fame of that name. Not sure what BuenaVistaWnry has to say about it. Agoston's original wnry, of course. Not to compelled to try their Lodi or Sonoma Zins...based on this Amador version.

Round up to the nearest 1/8" for height
See Product Specifications for more specific product info.
Sizes should always be provided in this format: Width x Height
On any measurement given, the factory does have a +/- 1/8 of an inch variance allowance.
Measure For Vertical Cellular Blinds
Inside Mount Width
• Measure the exact width (left to right) of the inside edge of the window frame in three places (top, middle and bottom).
• Take the smallest of the three measurements to the nearest 1/8 of an inch.
• The factory will take an approximate 3/8 of an inch deduction from the total width (headrail and fabric) to allow for correct installation.
Inside Mount Height
• Measure the exact height (top to bottom) from the top inside edge down to the window sill in three spots across window.
• Take the largest of the three measurements.
Outside Mount Width
• Measure the exact width (left to right) of the wooden or metal window frame (outer edge) OR how wide you want the product to be.A good rule of thumb for this product is 2 inches past your molding width.
• Be sure to measure wide enough as to cover the entire window plus offer enough coverage to avoid light or privacy gap. This is especially important if you have no trim and are installing to sheet rock or dry wall surface. 1-2 inches past the opening on EACH side is suggested if you do not have molding/trim.
• French doors-you always have to figure the opening exposure and be sure you extend the width so the doors can open to their fulliest.
Outside Mount Height
• Measure the top and bottom edge of window frame/trim. If no trim, be sure you provide the height you want the shade to be from top of the headrail to bottom of the bottom rail.
• Be sure to allot for coverage for light control and mounting hardware if mounting above window opening to wall surface. You will need 2 inches of surface area to mount above opening. Call us for further instruction if needed.

The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department has charged Davidson County Clerk of Superior Court Brian Shipwash with possessing an airsoft gun on the campus of the Charlotte School of Law.
The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department has charged Davidson County Clerk of Superior Court Brian Shipwash with possessing an airsoft gun on the campus of the Charlotte School of Law.
Shipwash, 41, was served with a misdemeanor criminal summons for the charge of weapons on campus/educational property. The Davidson County Sheriff's Office served the criminal summons to the clerk Tuesday on behalf of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department.
Officer C.J. Pierce of Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police alleges Shipwash brought the airsoft gun on the property of the Charlotte School of Law on Feb. 1.
Airsoft guns are spring-powered and are single-shot devices that launch plastic pellets. They are commonly sold at stores, such as Walmart, other retail establishments and sporting goods stores.
"I have served the judicial system for 14 years, and I have a great deal of confidence in the judicial system," Shipwash said Thursday as he responded to the charge. "I am optimistic that this will be handled appropriately by all involved. I look forward to talking more about this issue once it is resolved."
With the case pending, Shipwash declined to comment on specifics regarding the matter, including why he had the airsoft gun on the campus and how authorities discovered he had it.
Shipwash has been enrolled at the Charlotte School of Law since August 2012 as he pursues a law degree. He said the institution has not reprimanded him after the incident.
"Once the truth about this incident comes out, people will be able to understand," Shipwash said.
William T. Harper, director of security for the Charlotte School of Law, declined to comment on the case and deferred questions to an institution communication specialist. That spokesman was not immediately available for comment late Thursday afternoon.
A spokesman for the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department did not return a request for comment from The Dispatch.
Shipwash is scheduled to appear in court March 27.

High Seas 201B Dual Power Head
Don't let its small size full you, the Reef Octopus controllable Direct Current "DC" water pumps are the latest in variable speed flow technology and allows for refined control, efficiency and enhanced performance producing up to 790gph. The vast majority of circulation pumps available to hobbyist are alternating current "AC" pumps (the type of power that comes out of your wall outlet). Direct current pumps have several key advantages over traditional AC pumps. Most notably,you can control the rotational speed of the motor, thus electronically control water flow rates. DC pumps are also more efficient than AC pumps and produce less heat per volume of flow.
>>> Now the aquarist can have full control of the water flow through their sump, reactors, filters or closed loop systems!!!
This controller allows users to select between five preset speeds indicated by five lit LEDs. The controller also features a feed/service and an On/Off button. When the feed button is pressed, the skimmer pump shuts down and will automatically reactivate after 10 minutes. Press the feed button a second time to resume normal operation. RO DC pumps feature a true slow startup where the pump slowly ramps up from zero RPM to the full preset speed over a period of approximately 10 seconds.
The pump and controller are connected via a waterproof 3-conductor union. The detachable controller will allow for a simple waterproof union. The volute can rotate to change the pump's output orientation in 90 degree intervals, meaning users can output water vertically (up or down) as well as horizontally.
Output thread size: 1in slip PVC
Inlet union size: 1in slip PVC
Outlet Barb Size: 1/2-3/4in Stepped
Dimensions: 4.75in(W) x 5.7in(L) x 4in(H)
Voltage: DC 24V
Power Consumption: 25w watts at max power
Max flow: 790gph*
Max Head Height: 10.8ft*
*results will vary depending on aquarium setup
Note: THIS IS NOT A PRESSURE RATED PUMP. This pump is not ideal for second floor applications or to feed Beckett or downdraft skimmers where consistent pressure is necessary.
- 2 year coverage on pump/1 year on rotor

9. Difficulty Assessing Myriad Cloud Offers
One of the great things about the cloud is the vast assortment of services that the cloud can enable. But this apparent benefit can also pose a disadvantage. In most cases, customers can choose from a number of services that accomplish the same objectives. But if the customers are not specifically knowledgeable about the application at hand, they more frequently turned towards the least expensive option, or they fail to make a decision at all. In situations where they go for the cheapest option, they usually get what they pay for, frequently leading to customer satisfaction issues. Some customers choose to remain with customer premise equipment in order to avoid the issue altogether.

"It's crazy how the ratio between sales to piracy is probably 1 to 15 to 1 to 20 right now," Yerli told IGN. "For one sale there are 15 to 20 pirates and pirate versions, and that's a big shame for the PC industry."
Yerli added that he hoped to see some change with the release of Crytek's upcoming shooter follow-up Crysis Warhead. When asked if the game would include anti-piracy measures similar to Electronic Arts' activation protocols in the PC edition of BioWare's Mass Effect, the CEO didn't directly specify but hinted at some new ideas.
"Effectively, if the game isn't an online game or multiplayer game—there are challenges regardless of what you do—the game can be cracked. The effort is to make it more difficult to crack, and certainly we're going to make it more difficult this time with Warhead." nope
Echoing previous reports that Crysis Warhead would be Crytek's last PC-exclusive title, Yerli added that rampant piracy may lead to "less and less games appearing on the PC, or less and less games pushing the boundaries of PC gaming."
"I think our message is if you're a PC gamer, and you really want to respect the platform, then you should stop pirating... We would only consider full PC exclusives—if the situation continues like this or gets worse—I think we would only consider PC exclusive titles that are either online or multiplayer and no more single-player."

The back-to-back family-friendly weekend events will explore and celebrate the historic San Diego River from its origin to the east to its destination in Ocean Beach in the west.
In coordination with 32 partner organizations and agencies, 40 total events are planned along the San Diego River from Santa Ysabel to Ocean Beach, including hikes, bike rides, photography, river cleanups, history tours and other activities.
Nearly all the events are free of charge, thanks to Think Blue San Diego, SDG&E and other sponsors.
The San Diego River runs 52 miles from the mountains near Julian to the Pacific Ocean at Ocean Beach and offers many opportunities for nature exploration and recreation.
The annual River Days celebration is a chance to showcase these opportunities through guided experiences and to allow residents to claim a role and take pride in keeping local waterways pristine.
"The goal of San Diego River Days is to get people out enjoying all the river has to offer," said Rob Hutsel, executive director of The San Diego River Park Foundation. "There are also some great ways to give back to the community, including the annual Youth Day of Service, where we expect over 1,000 youth and families to join us for 11 different community service projects on Saturday, May 10.
"Engaging our youth is essential to ensuring that the river is healthy, vibrant and celebrated by future generations. We invite all of San Diego to come out and join us," he said.

Texas' most congested corridors identified
Updated 4:42 pm, Tuesday, March 11, 2014
Drivers wasted a lot of time on the road in 2013, and these highway corridors are the biggest reasons why.
INRIX analysts looked at major metros across the globe to identify the biggest problem spots. In Texas, the top 15 worst sections all sit in Dallas, Houston or Austin, with fewer than expected in the Bayou City.
The worst overall is Houston's US-59 northbound from Greenbriar to I-45. It came in at No. 21 in the list of the world's worst corridors, and caused 53.4 hours in traffic delays in 2013.
Ranks were determined by looking at the length of the corridor, comparing normal travel time to peak travel time and looking at how many hours a year it causes in delays. The data also reveals which time of day is the worst to drive on each specific corridor. For the US-59 stretch mentioned above, it's best to stay away around 5 p.m. on Fridays.
See above for the 15 worst corridors in the state.

Monster Marshmallow Cookies are chock full of hearty ingredients like oats, rice cereal, chocolate chips, pecans and marshmallows. Every bite is bursting with all sorts of scrumptiousness! They fast became favorites in my house.
Aside from cake, cookies rank as the second most sought after sweet in my house. Not something you would know from reading my blog, because I haven't given them even half the attention they deserve.
So, to satisfy my family's raging sweet tooth and to add to my recipe collection I'm setting aside Wednesdays for cookie baking. Indefinitely. Until I tire of them, run out of recipes or become enamored with baking something else. . . whichever comes first. {Should I do a cookie link-up? Let me know if you're interested.}
These crave-worthy cookies borrow a little bit of something from all the most popular cookies. They will make anyone and everyone happy!
Although the recipe comes with a spicy chocolate drizzle for the tops, the cookie monsters in my family preferred them without.
It's best to keep the cookies on the smallish side and be careful not to overbake otherwise the marshmallows get a little too crispy.
Monster Marshmallow Cookies are chock full of hearty ingredients like oats, rice cereal, chocolate chips, pecans and marshmallows.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl whisk flour, baking powder and baking soda together. In a separate large bowl, beat butter, granulated and brown sugars together on medium-high speed until fluffy. On medium-high beat in eggs one at a time, then vanilla, then on low beat in flour mixture just until combined
- Using a wooden spoon stir in oats, cereal, chocolate chips, nuts and marshmallows. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Drop heaping tablespoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, about 3 inches apart and bake until golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Allow cookies to rest on baking pans about 10 minutes, remove to wire racks and cool completely before adding the topping.
- Combine chocolate chips, marshmallows, half-and-half and cayenne pepper in a saucepan over medium heat; cook, stirring, until the mixture is smooth, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in pecans. Drizzle over the cookies and allow to set about 4 hours.

Dan Fisher, who lives in Andrews, is the oldest athlete to compete in a Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association National Finals show.
The 61-year-old competed in the Nov. 2-3 Clem McSpadden National Finals Steer Roping at the Lazy E Arena near Guthrie, Okla. He actually broke the age record he set two years ago when he competed in the NFSR at 59.
"I've never really slowed down," Fisher said.
"It's just something I do year after year. I just stick to ranching and practicing roping everyday. It's just been a way of life for the past 40 years."
During the NFSR, Fisher earned $10,808 after making 10 runs. He finished 12th in the world title race after pocketing $40,247 throughout 2012.
Fisher has 15 NFSR qualifications. He earned his first back number in 1986.
"There have been years I've missed qualifying for the Finals as the result of having knee surgery," Fisher said. "But during those times, I've always rehabbed well and rebounded."
Last year, Fisher missed qualifying for the NFSR after undergoing prostate cancer surgery. But he rapidly recovered and qualified for the 2012 edition in 13th place.
Fisher also competes against his two sons, Vin and J. Tom, who are former qualifiers to the National Finals Steer Roping. Vin Fisher, 31, competed in 2012 NFSR and finished third in the 2012 world title race with $86,503.
� Brazile watch: Trevor Brazile began the regular season with an opportunity to break the record for the most world titles in the PRCA.
But after finishing second in the world title race at the National Finals Steer Roping, Brazile will have to wait at least another year.
The record is 18 gold buckles and it's held by steer roper Guy Allen. Brazile, an Amarillo native who lives in Decatur, has 16 world titles.
The best Brazile can do this year is tie Allen. He can finish this season with 18 gold buckles if he clinches the all-around and team roping world titles at the Dec. 6-15 Wrangler National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas.
Brazile will enter the NFR (held at the Thomas & Mack Center) with the all-around title almost clinched. His season total of $247,977 is ranked first in the PRCA standings. Bronc rider Steven Dent is second with $144,465.
Brazile also is ranked No. 1 in team roping heading with $132,254. Chad Masters is No. 2 with $117,475.
� Texas Stampede update: The Texas Stampede was last a PRCA-approved show in 2008 when it was held at Dallas' American Airlines Center. This year, it returned to the PRCA fold and its earnings will count toward the 2013 regular-season world standings.
The 2012 Stampede was conducted last weekend at the Allen Event Center. This edition drew an array of credentialed competitors such as defending world tie-down roping champion Tuf Cooper, a native of Childress who lives in Decatur.
Cooper tied for first in the event at the Texas Stampede after turning in a time of 7.7 seconds and he earned $2,180. Former NFR qualifier Kory Koontz of Sudan tied for first in team roping/heeling after he and his partner, Justin Van Davis, turned in a 3.8 ($3,762 each).

Local Returns to Help Others
MINSTER — With the economy down the last few years, some people might say psychologist Laura Monnier-Roetgerman was crazy to move back from Chicago to risk jump-starting her own business.
But the economy, joblessness and stress in general are exactly why the services of a Center for Personal Wellness, now open on Fourth Street in Minster, are needed, she said.
"Times have changed so much," she said. "With the economy and unemployment, people are struggling to balance their life, workload and kids. A lot of people are depressed or anxious."
Another reason to move back from Minster, besides pursuing the dream of opening her own facility, was to address what she feels is a stigma about mental health especially in rural areas.
"There's a real need for services here, and I decided to go for it," she said.
The center has two mental health professionals currently, Barry Jennings, MSW, and Carla Batdorf, a professional counselor.
Now is also a great time to start, she said, because changes in the health care laws have allowed most people to receive some kind of mental health benefits through their insurance, which means her office will accept many major insurance providers, like Aetna, Medicare, Anthem and others.
People feel, she said, that seeing a person for help is something someone only does if they're in a real crisis.
She wants to let people know that anyone can learn something from a mental health professional.
If a person is on medication, therapy could address the cause of anxiety, and could stop a person from having to take medication their whole life.
Also, a therapist can teach coping skills or can tell a person if what they're experiencing is normal.
"Sometimes people live with depression their entire lives," Monnier-Roetgerman said. "They don't know until someone says something."
While talking to family and friends is necessary and beneficial, one difficulty is that they aren't unbiased.
Also, they can't always see everything that's going on. It can be easier to listen to a person who is empathic, non-judgemental, and whose only priority is to advocate for your health.
She wants the facility to be modern in its communication, allowing clients to schedule appointments online at the website, but very private in its practice.
One reason she likes the location, she said, is the parking behind the building can make people comfortable walking in. Businesses nearby, like the bank, aren't as high traffic as a retail shop would be.
The facility offers individual, group, couples and family therapy, she said.
A two-hour workshop April 15 will address stress, how to cope and relaxation. A grief support group, free to attend, begins April 16 and continues for 10 weeks.
Eventually, once her dog is certified in the practice, Monnier-Roetgerman will offer animal assisted therapy, which she thinks will set her apart from most counselors or specialists in the area.
"What does it hurt — if you're wondering if maybe you could benefit from therapy, you probably could," Monnier-Roetgerman said.

NEW YORK (AP) — The price of oil finished higher Monday as political leaders in Washington appear closer to a resolution in critical budget negotiations.
President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner met at the White House on Monday in hopes of making more progress toward avoiding the "fiscal cliff," a combination of spending cuts and tax increases that go into effect on Jan. 1.
The meeting came after Boehner on Friday offered to raise taxes on some wealthy earners — but only if Obama agrees to cuts in benefit programs.
Benchmark crude rose 47 cents to close at $87.20 on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Brent crude, which is used to price international varieties of oil, fell 54 cents to $107.64 on the ICE Futures Exchange in London.
Prices at the pump dropped 4 cents over the weekend to an average of $3.25 a gallon, the lowest level this year. That's still a penny more than a year earlier, but 17 cents cheaper than a month ago.
In other trading on the Nymex:
— Heating oil fell 2 cents to $2.96 a gallon.
— Natural gas rose 4 cents to $3.36 per 1,000 cubic feet, its first gain in 8 trading sessions.
— Wholesale gasoline fell less than a penny to close at $2.65 a gallon.

Blue Jays designated RHP Vince Perkins for assignment.
Rather than Ryan Houston or John Hattig? Hattig is still sort of interesting, but he's a 26-year-old third baseman and we can't imagine the Jays will have room for him any year soon. Houston has never been much of a prospect. We'd be very surprised if Perkins went unclaimed. It'd be a high price to pay just to get Brian Tallet on the roster for two weeks.
The action on Perkins' heavy 93-96 sinking fastball has been linkened to a bowling ball and its a true out pitch. he throws a hard 86-87 slider and a developing changeup with high marks for mound presence and makeup.

Can someone guide me in the right direction? Need an "employee database online"
Here is what I need.
I need a registration page where one of our employees will enter their name, phone number, email and maybe a few other things as well as a password.
I want their login to be their email and password.
When they register, I need all that information to be stored in a database that can also be browsed through.
Now, once the employee logs in, i want it to say "Welcome, Joe Smith". In this place I want that person to be able to edit their own personal information, such as if their phone number changes etc." Then, I need a few links that should be pretty standard.
The biggest concern I have is I want them to be able to click on a link where they can find another employee's profile and click on it and see their information, such as name, email, phone etc.
I know PHP - one a scale of 1-10 I would say a 4.
If there is a nice script out there, that would be best, but if someone could be kind enough to lead me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.
Thank you so much.

Lunch with Dennis Rosinlof is always the same: He's been eating a Big Mac from McDonald's for 30 years.
He conservatively estimated he has eaten 12,000 Big Macs in the past 30 years.
He started eating Big Macs when he began his sales career, he said. He has been working as a salesman at R.C. Willey for most of his professional life.
For the past 20 years, he said he has been eating at McDonald's at least 10 times a week and he never gets tired of it.
"I look forward to going to McDonald's every single time," Rosinlof said.
On Mondays he said he stops by McDonald's on the way home from flying planes. He eats one on Wednesdays and two a day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. On Sunday, he said he takes a break.
Rosinlof's wife of 37 years, Lauri, is a registered nurse. She and their kids encourage him to eat healthier, but at 64 years old, six feet tall and 165 pounds with a cholesterol level under 200, they said they let him be himself.

Center on Professionalism Helps Students Develop Skills
Now more than ever, prospective employers want to know that our students are engaged, energetic, enthusiastic and efficient – and have the professional skills necessary to hit the ground running. This fall, we are launching new programming through our Center on Professionalism that will help students develop their skills in five key areas: communication; lawyering skills; organization and management dynamics; self-development; and strategic planning and problem solving.
As part of this effort, all first-year students will work in their cohorts to learn the skills of legal research and writing and to understand more deeply and develop professional skills. Each cohort works with faculty and staff liaisons with whom they will meet as a group, and we are launching a special intranet site that will allow students to track their own professional-skills development throughout their Law School careers.
On Monday, Sept. 21, we held a Professionalism Day for 1Ls that included an alumni networking lunch, meetings with the cohorts and their liaisons and a discussion of how students can embrace their legal education in ways that build upon their professional skills.

American Greetings Releases 'Dad Casting' Father's Day Ad
American Greetings is rolling out the latest installment in its "World's Toughest Job" marketing campaign with an ad called "Dad Casting." In the commercial, actors audition for a supposed role as a father. The actors, who do not know the casting call is for the card company, work with the premise that fatherhood is full of "unscripted moments."
The ad, which promotes Father's Day, follows a similar video the company released in April for Mother's Day. In the previous video ad, unwitting folks applied and interviewed for a job called "Director of Operations" that appeared to be unbearable because of its unrelenting demands and lack of pay. Viewers soon learn the terrible job description is what mothers face daily.
The previous ad has garnered more than 20.6 million views on YouTube.
The company said it is "encouraging consumers to join the conversation by telling us why the dad in your life deserves a standing ovation."
When people tag their Father's Day tweets, posts and photos with #worldstoughestjob, the company will tally them up with its "Dadmiration Tracker."

Blue Devil Nation tipped off the masses that Duke came away enamored with California Supreme big man Marcus Lee (6-9, 210) after the Nike EYBL. Coach Mike Krzyzewski called Lee today with an offer which makes the second the Blue Devils have handed out in two days.
We had BDN Recruiting Analyst Andrew Slater on the scene and we made sure he spoke to Lee and that interview is on the way for BDN Premium members. We knew the call was coming and that he would likely earn a coveted offer to Duke and BDN just confirmed it via sources close to the team.
Lee told BDN's Andrew Slater yesterday that he credits volleyball, in terms of jumping, concentration, and being peaceful, with helping his shot blocking. "He's trying to carve out a niche as a shot blocker/rebounder. His brother and uncle will be the point men in his recruitment, " said Slater.
Lee told Slater that he grew up a Carolina fan, but said he's very open to Duke. He has a brother played college ball as well. Distance will not be a factor in his recruitment, but he's looking for a coach that he's comfortable with, like Miles Simon (his AAU coach), and warm weather is a must.
We will have Slaters' complete interview up for BDN Premium members shortly, so check back in.

Great shirt, bought a new balance shirt for around the same prince as this one and on the first wear the threading came loose around the chest area.

(SportsNetwork.com) - Analytics are generally helpful when trying to break down professional sports but every once in a while you will come across a player who isn't defined by the statistics that some have turned into a religion.
Tom Brady is that player in the NFL.
Citing a drop in "production" during the 2013 season, one prominent website, which is based solely on analytics, claimed the 37-year-old Brady was no longer among the NFL's top five quarterbacks.
Whether that was a look-at-me piece to generate traffic or a real opinion based on black-and-white data is inconsequential. The reaction to it around the league was virtually unanimous, it was met with laughter.
When the Patriots arrived in Buffalo last year for the season opener Aaron Hernandez was in jail, Wes Welker had relocated to Denver, Danny Woodhead picked San Diego as his new home, Brandon Lloyd was picking up an unemployment check, and all-world tight end Rob Gronkowski was still sidelined after multiple surgeries on his forearm and back.
When you did the math on that, here was the stark realization -- the recipients of 338 of New England's 402 total receptions from 2012 weren't available to Brady when he took the field against the Bills.
Admittedly Brady's raw numbers of 4,343 yards, 25 touchdowns and 11 interceptions in 2013 was a dip as he threw to the then-unproven Julian Edelman and the oft-injured Danny Amendola, along with rookies like Aaron Dobson and Kenbrell Thompkins.
For most signal callers facing similar hurdles that dip would have been a collapse. When it was all said and done for Brady and Co. the 2013 Pats were 12-4 and AFC East champs before losing in the conference championship game, the exact same result with all those proven commodities in 2012.
Brady wins and he makes others better, traits that can't necessarily be measured by advanced statistics.
Watching "Tom Terrific" during 1-on-1 drills is like peering over the shoulder of a brilliant surgeon. Nearly every pass attempt is delivered with pinpoint accuracy and his touch with the football is almost unfair, forcing the frustrated defenders to work blue and let the expletives fly as they lunge at passes just out of their reach.
"When we do things as well, when we don't make unforced errors, when we control what the New England Patriots can control, we can be a pretty good team," Brady said. "We just can't do things really that are unforced errors, things that the other team doesn't have to do anything to stop us, but we stop ourselves."
New England hit the Powerball 14 years ago and it continues to pay off all these years later.
That said the window is certainly closing in Foxboro because the one bout everyone loses is the fight against "Father Time."
There is still some time to take advantage of perhaps the best quarterback/coaching tandem in NFL history and New England plans to take advantage of it.
"Everyone has been working hard. I think the competition has been at a high level," Brady said. "There are a lot of guys that are competing for spots. It always brings out the best in all of us when you see that and when guys dig deep. It's been a lot of fun to see."
LAST PLAYOFF APPEARANCE: 2013, lost to Denver in AFC Championship Game
HEAD COACH (RECORD): Bill Belichick (163-61 in 14 seasons with Patriots, 199-105 in 19 seasons overall)
OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR: Josh McDaniels (sixth season with Patriots)
DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR: Matt Patricia (third season with Patriots)
KEY ADDITIONS: CB Darrelle Revis (from Buccaneers), CB Brandon Browner (from Seahawks), WR Brandon LaFell (from Panthers), DT Dominique Easley (first round, Florida), QB Jimmy Garoppolo (second round, Eastern Illinois)
KEY DEPARTURES: RB LeGarrette Blount (to Steelers), LB Brandon Spikes (to Bills), Aqib Talib (to Broncos), S Steve Gregory (retired), S Adrian Wilson (to Bears)
QB: Brady's resume has few holes. The three-time Super bowl champ has 148 regular-season wins as a starting QB, tied with Hall of Famer John Elway for third on the all-time win list, while his 59 career 300-yard games is fifth best in league lore. Meanwhile, Brady reached 4,000 passing yards (4,343) in 2013 for the sixth time in his career, joining Dan Marino (6), Brett Favre (6), Drew Brees (8) and Peyton Manning (13) as the only players to have at least five seasons with 4,000-or-more.
Brady still has plenty of life left in his right arm but he turned 37 in early August and current backup Ryan Mallett will likely be moving on after the 2014 season so the Patriots invested in the heir to Brady's throne in Eastern Illinois rookie Jimmy Garoppolo.
"This kid's got a quick release, good arm and is very athletic," NFL Network analyst Mike Mayock said of Garoppolo, a second-round pick. "Tom Brady, at his age, and Ryan Mallett's uncertain status forces this pick. This is an insurance policy for an unknown future."
RB: While the Patriots didn't add much to their offense in the offseason, they did lose LeGarrette Blount in free agency. Blount stepped in during 2013 for the fumble-prone Stevan Ridley and gave the running game quite a boost.
Of course Ridley possesses the better all-around game when he holds onto the football and he along with Shane Vereen, a great pass receiver out of the backfield, and Brandon Bolden figure to mix and match depending on who has the hot hand.
Ridley's act could be wearing thin with Bill Belichick, however, and rumors emanating from Foxboro say the veteran could be on the bubble perhaps due to the play of former Notre Same star Jonas Gray, a big back who could bring some of the Blount nastiness to the running game.
"Hard working kid. Worked hard in the offseason, worked hard in the spring and he's worked hard in training camp," Belichick said when discussing Gray. " He's been out there every day making progress and improving. We'll see how it goes. He's done everything we've asked him to do."
WR: Outside of a breakout year for Julian Edelman this group was disappointing in 2013.
Edelman is no home-run hitter but he finished with 105 receptions in 2013 to join Wes Welker (2007-09, 11-12) and Troy Brown (2001) as the only Patriots players to reach 100 receptions in a season.
An exceptional route runner, Edelman averaged 6.4 receptions per game in 2013 and finished with 1,056 receiving yards, significant upgrades from his previous career highs of 37 catches for 359 yards. Too often, however, Brady had to lock onto Edelman because his other receivers were getting no separation.
Danny Amendola is a solid receiver when healthy but he just hasn't been able to stay on the field consistently. He has a lot of Edelman's traits but also brings a little more big-play ability to the table and his numbers (54 receptions) could spike if his body holds up.
Rookies Aaron Dobson and Kenbrell Thompkins flashed at times a year ago but were far too inconsistent. Dobson, a former second-round draft pick, certainly looks the part but it's been a slow start for him this year thanks to the broken foot he suffered in Week 12 of last season.
The one added piece to the puzzle is former Panther Brandon LaFell and it could be a significant one. LaFell is a tall, athletic receiver who could develop into a big target for Brady, especially on inside routes.
"He's been good," Belichick said of LaFell. "He's been very diligent in trying to learn his assignments, learn the plays. He's a tough kid. Obviously he's a big target. Again, he's gotten better at the routes that we've run. He's got a good skill set; a little different than some of our other guys, but good and he's tough."
TE: When you take the QBs out of the equation and talk about the best players in all of football, you usually start with three names -- Vikings RB Adrian Peterson, Titans terror J.J. Watt and Gronkowski, a matchup nightmare with the size and strength to torture any defense.
Problem is Gronkowski hasn't been healthy for two years and his latest malady, a torn ACL and MCL in the middle of last season was a serious one. Asking the old Gronk to show up is probably too much to ask for but leaning on a reasonable facsimile for 16 games could take the Pats to another level.
Backup Michael Hoomanawanui is a big, physical target but offers no outstanding traits, while the recently signed Steve Maneri could help as an inline blocker.
OL: The Patriots' offensive line is an experienced bunch led by left guard Logan Mankins and a pair of solid tackles in Sebastian Vollmer and Nate Solder.
The group, however, is coming off a bit of a down year, allowing 40 sacks, the most Brady has endured since his first year as a starter.
The interior was the weak link in 2013 and center Ryan Wendell along with right guard Dan Connolly must bounce back from poor efforts while Mankins ha to prove his 2013 was an anomaly and not indicative of descent as a player.
New England used mid-round draft choices on Florida State center Bryan Stork, Stanford tackle Cameron Fleming and Florida guard Jon Halapio as insurance.
DL: The Patriots have plenty of talent on the defensive line but all eyes will be on veteran nose tackle Vince Wilfork. The four-time Pro Bowl selection is one of the NFL's best pure run stuffers but is attempting to come back form a torn Achilles', an injury that is especially tough on men the size of the 340- pound University of Miami product.
Wilfork's presumed running mate on the interior, Tommy Kelly, another veteran coming off a serious injury (ACL) wasn't able to make it back and was set to be released on the cut to 75.
Chris Jones, who performed admirably, last year after the injuries will take over for Kelly and hold down the fort until rookie Dominique Easley is ready.
The Patriots gambled and selected the Florida defensive tackle with the 29th overall pick. Easley is a top-10 talent with a history of significant knee problems playing a position which demands he carries a lot of weight on his 6- foot-2 frame. Easley tore both of his ACLs during his time in Gainesville, Fla., most recently damaging the ACL and meniscus in his right knee last September, cutting short was shaping up as a monster season for the Staten Island native.
Easley has always shown the kind of quick, active hands that are a staple of three-technique stars in the NFL and despite being "undersized" at 288 pounds has always been able to hold his own against the run thanks to impressive core and lower-body strength.
"He was a top 30 pick until he tore his ACL in September," NFL Network draft analyst Mike Mayock said. "He's quick and explosive. A lot of people felt like he was going to drop because of the ACL. This is a typical Bill Belichick pick. The rest of the league discounted his talent, but he'll be in training camp. The Patriots needed defensive linemen and this kid is gifted."
Third-year Syracuse product Chandler Jones and the underrated Rob Ninkovich are the ends.
Jones, a former first-round pick, is an emerging star who led the team with 11 1/2 sacks in 2013. Ninkovich, meanwhile, has showed that he is a playmaker with 11 fumble recoveries over the last four seasons (2010-13), the most of any player in the NFL over that time. He also is the first Patriots player with back-to-back seasons with at least eight sacks since Willie McGinest in 1995 and 1996.
LB: The Patriots lost veteran Brandon Spikes to division rival Buffalo but that was a calculated gamble on the assumption second-year man Jamie Collins is ready for full-time duty on the outside.
The lengthy Collins was dominant in the playoffs against the Colts and has the length and athleticism to be a star. His ascension on the strong side, along with the return star mike linebacker Jerod Mayo, who tore his pec in mid- October of last season, means the Pats will field one of the best LB crews in the league.
The third member of the group is former first-round pick Dont'a Hightower, a physical run stuffer with the strength to shed at the point of attack on the weak side.
Depth figures to come from former Chris White, who filled in for Mayo last season.
DB: With an eye on Denver the Pats really upgraded the defensive backfield, bringing in cornerbacks Darrelle Revis and Brandon Browner. The Buccaneers cut Revis in March, and the Patriots quickly pounced, signing him to a 1-year deal worth $12 million.
Revis took a step back in Tampa's zone-heavy schemes in 2013 but he is still one of the few true lockdown corners in football and a player who will enable the inventive Belichick to take a few more chances on defense. In fact, Revis projects as the kind of player who can match up with a receiver like Demaryius Thomas, enabling the other defensive backs to concentrate on stopping lesser options.
Once back from a four-game suspension, Browner, the biggest corner in the game at 6-foot-4, should be capable of shutting down most No. 2 receivers. Logan Ryan, a third-round selection in 2013, should start while Browner is sidelined and offer solid depth when the former Seahawk gets back.
Skilled slot option Kyle Arrington should be the nickel corner.
Free safety Devin McCourty is a Pro Bowl-level performer who is active in run support and offers cornerback-like coverage skills. His running mate figures to be fellow Rutgers product Duron Harmon, the clear weak link of the group. Veteran Patrick Chung is back after a year in Philly and could push Harmon because he understands what Belichick wants.
SPECIAL TEAMS: Stephen Gostkowski set the franchise record for most points in a season with 158 total points in 2013. Gostkowski gets the ball up quickly and has enough leg strength to cut through the bad weather in the Northeast.
Punter Ryan Allen is a two-step left-footed punter with a funky delivery that naturally fades away from the returner.
Edelman is sure-handed as the punt returner while Josh Boyce offers home-run speed on kickoffs.
COACH: Belichick is almost always ahead of the curve in the NFL. An innovator who trusts his veteran players, Belichick is the only head coach in football who will completely change the fundamentals of his game plans from week to week.
"The Hoodie" has had 13 straight winning seasons, needs one more regular- season win to become just the sixth NFL head coach with at least 200 career wins and one more playoff triumph to tie the all-time mark of 20.
History says his lieutenants -- currently offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels and defensive chief Matt Patricia -- fare better with him pulling the strings than on their own.
THE SKINNY: : The Patriots were one win away from the Super Bowl last year and didn't lose much but it remains to be seen if they closed the gap significantly on Denver.
The one thing missing in New England these days is the big threat on the outside which Randy Moss used to provide. That has lessened the margin of error for the Pats on a week-by-week basis.
Another AFC East crown seems assured and another conference championship game is in play, meaning home field could be everything for the Pats.

I hope Gnome switches to Qt one day, its so much nicer than GTK.
What reactionaries are modding this "troll"? It's a perfectly valid comment, for anyone who has actually sat down and compared the libraries. Also, it's a perfectly reasonable issue to consider, now that both desktops' core libraries share common licenses and have essentially become interchangeable. Yes, that interchange would involve hard work, which may lead reactionaries to reject it, but what progress doesn't involve hard work? It would at least be nice to see a study of some GNOME app re-implemented in Qt, and what the pros/cons are. I know for a fact that at least a few apps have have been ported from GNOME to Qt (Qt3, though, I think), and probably some have been ported the other way too. Even just those historical cases with Qt3, the case study would be interesting.
It's not going to happen. Qt makes sense if you develop in C++. Gnome is going to move gradually to Python and C# development; C++ is just not on its roadmap.
1) replace Qt memory management with TR1::shared_ptr (or boost).
2) replace Qt collections with STL collections.
3) replace Qt threads with boost::threads.
4) replace Qt signals and slots with boost::signals.
In other words, make Qt play nice with STL and boost, which are the foundations for developing C++ code these days.
An STL implementation has a few things going in its favor:
STL implementations use best-of-breed algorithms.
The designers of STL implementations are, more than likely, domain experts.
Those domain experts were entirely focused on the mission of providing a flexible, powerful, and efficient library. This was their primary task.
But then again. (only) You know your own usage scenario, data types and platform. That knowledge can probably offer some profound short cuts and o
I don't think it's an exactly clever idea to be unnecessarily copying containers in the first place, but no matter what it makes Qt to STL migration hard if the Qt applications are filled with assumptions on copy-on-write.
shared_ptr and QPointer don't play together so nicely though. Also QPointer tends be slower than shared_ptr when I only need what shared_ptr does. To get them to work together I end-up copying things between the two or just end-up not using shared_ptr at all.
To be fair QSharedPointer showed-up in 4.5, hence the reason I had never heard of it until now. OPointer was forced upon me due to everything being a QObject, but then there was the other non-Qt half of the code that used boost, it was not pretty.
Almost, but not quite. STL containers tend to be optimized for speed, while Qt containers are optimized for size. There is an old Qt Quarterly that discussed the implementation of Qt's containers what was quite interesting. Go online and search for it.
1) replace Qt memory management with TR1::shared_ptr (or boost).
2) replace Qt collections with STL collections.
3) replace Qt threads with boost::threads.
4) replace Qt signals and slots with boost::signals.
In other words, make Qt play nice with STL and boost, which are the foundations for developing C++ code these days.
So it doesn't play nice with them right now?
You'll be waiting for Qt5 for that kind of stuff.
I think this will be about the time C++0x [att.com] gets mainstream. Breaking Qt source compatibility before that is just not worth it.
1) replace Qt memory management with TR1::shared_ptr (or boost).
For the core purpose of Qt (GUIs), Qt's various memory models work very well. Every widget is a QObject and by default they fall into parent child releationships that include life-cycle management of your objects. Why would you want to mess up that clean model?
2) replace Qt collections with STL collections.
Another unnecessary generalization. I actually much prefer Qt's collections because A) they are implicitly shared (you can pass them around without getting deep copies) and B) they have one clean and very efficient implementation across platforms, so I don't have to worry about the memory and performance characteristics of a MSVC std::map vs a GCC std::map. Also they are much cleaner to work with and don't require hideous iterators every step of the way.
3) replace Qt threads with boost::threads.
Again, Qt threads will perform as good as native threads on each platform, something you can not guarantee with pthreads (with weaker windows support). Also, QThread and friends (QMutex, QSemaphore, QWaitCondition, QThreadStorage) are very C++ oriented and stylistically much cleaner than pthreads and even go beyond it in scope.
4) replace Qt signals and slots with boost::signals.
This is probably the most valid argument, and there is some legacy reasons why Qt had to throw a meta object compiler on top of C++ to get this to work 18 years ago. But in the mean time, that moc layer has paid off in gold. Now you the ability to get free introspection on classes of your choosing which is vital in making C++ suck less in well designed programs (i.e. can do automatic class instance serialization etc).
In other words, make Qt play nice with STL and boost, which are the foundations for developing C++ code these days.
In other words, Qt is a great one-stop-shop for cross platform development and I wouldn't change a single thing you listed. In fact, if you write your C++ code in stylelistic keeping with the Qt libraries, you avoid most of C++'s warts and can even enjoy the language.
1) parent-child relationships are not enough in many cases where objects are shared across multiple domains.
2) nowadays STL is as efficient as it gets across all major compilers - plus you'll get big speed ups with the upcoming changes in C++0x.
3) I did not say anything about pthreads. I said 'replace Qt threads with boost threads'.
4) Introspection has nothing to do with signals and slots. Qt signals and slots are very limited in what they can do.
boost::thread has a different design concept than QThread. I would appreciate if Qt
would introduce a Functor-style API for Threads.
boost::signals doesn't work across threads (this is docuemented in the boost API).
Throwing both Qt and boost APIs together would create an ugly mess.
Boost::signals doesn't need to work across threads because it can be made to work across threads with very little code. All that you need is a single template class which wraps the signal into a QEvent.
No ugly mess if whatever common functionality they have is removed from Qt.
Qt works on Windows, Mac, Linux/X11, embedded Linux, Windows CE (according to Trollech).
Boost works on almost any modern operating system, including UNIX and Windows variants (phrase copied and pasted from boost site).
So I think boost works in more platforms than Qt.
Qt is Object Oriented through and through, with only a hint of GP. There's no need to use functors. Threads are defined by subclassing QThread, not passing in a functor. Signal/slots are implemented as GoF Publish/Subscribe, not functors wrapping a member function pointer.
The fact of the matter is that most C++ developers just don't know function objects. I've been doing an informal survey for the past two years, asking clients about functors. My informal results seem to be that only one in twenty know what
1) functors and lambdas simplify code greatly.
2) it's time for C++ devs to know about functors.
3) I can't bind functors with Qt signals.
Note however that when I showed C++ coders what function objects are, they liked it every time. It is somewhat strange at the beginning, but once you grasp it fully, you never want to put function objects, bind, lambda etc. away.
In other words, make Qt play nice with STL and boost, which are the foundations for developing C++ code these days.
In still other words, make it emit mountains of non-shared, hard to update code into every client application and dependent library, thus turning it into awful crap for purposes of mobile platforms, or just any platforms where shared libraries are anything but a joke.
As a side-effect, force it to use C++ exceptions, which are a sick joke to anybody who knows how real exceptions work in managed environments, and introduce any number of invisible, rarely exercised paths through the application code, which cau
MATLAB won't transition to anything. It's the only player in the market and is about as bad as Microsoft as far as licensing goes. Since they switched to activation for their licensing I have been looking for competitors. I've even had to crack some of their systems in order for it to keep working (some with an official crack, others with a not-so-legal crack). The Mathworks knows they have all educational institutions and a lot of engineering labs by the balls and can twist them however they want.

I have to say, I'm glad of this trend lately for open source projects to primarily publish their source through Git, and particularly through these very able Git hosting sites like gitorious and github [github.com]. If you've worked with CVS and SVN open-source projects most of your career, the experience is simply incomparable. With the way Git works, and particularly with the implementations the hosting companies provide, it's very easy to fork a project, make the changes you want, and always have the power to commit to a remote repository that not only keeps track of all your commits but ALSO how all your commits relate back to the original forked project...
Instead of downloading someone's tarball and (maybe) emailing them a diff (or just posting your own duplicate of their source with your little changes), it's like you're making a shadow copy of a projects source, where you have all the control but no information is duplicated or lost.

However, if you've worked with mercurial before, the experience is comparable - but not really favorably for Git.
It seems Git is this shiny thing every trend chaser is picking it up right now, but it has the overall feel of not really being ready yet. I'm glad it's having some serious competition right now, so it won't be the "obvious" choice like svn was for the previous generation. It's a mixed blessing - I'd really want us to have one obvious DVCS choice, but on the other hand I don't want it to be git as it is right now. And Git doesn't seem to be getting better fast enough, since the current users are familiar with its quirks and don't really mind that much.
Is there any kind of Mercurial hosting for open source projects you can recommend?

What can I say... Qt is becoming a dream platform thanks to Nokia's insight!
- a powerful language/library (C++)
- real cross-platform
- support for embedded and mobile applications (a great alternative for the difficult Symbian C++ language)
- open source and nice licence (LGPL)
- exemplar own IDE but also Eclipse/VS integration
- additional languages supported
What else could one ask?!
Information is the inverse of entropy.
