To show itself as ethical army "and do not ask me how" Avichay Adraee " published on his twitter account a copy for the flyer the IAF is throwing on Gaza to warn the civilians from getting close to Hamas centers and members.
the Biblical name of the Pillars of Cloud was chosen in order to send a hidden message to Egypt but he answered no. Now if IDF had chosen a Biblical name (Exodus 13:21) for its operation , Hamas also chose a Quranic name "stones of shale" (Qur'an 105:4).
In EgyptNow concerning Egypt , well President Morsi held an emergency meeting with the PM , minister of defense and minister of interior to discuss the developments in Gaza. The meeting which was held at the Presidential palace early today was attended by Pakinam El Sharkawy, the President's aide for Political affairs and Essam Haddad , the President's aide for foreign affairs and international cooperation.
|Jaabari, Shalit and Shahata
On the other hand head of Egyptian intelligence Rafat Shahata has cut his visit to Turkey and returned immediately to Cairo to follow up the latest updates in Gaza. Shahata is from the key players in reaching out for a truce "that has become a past" between Hamas and Israel in the past months.
Rafah Crossings have been opened from the Egyptian side since last night , no vacations for workers. Only injured Palestinians are allowed to entered. Al Arish General hospital is now ready to receive injured Palestinian.
Now there are news concerning Egyptian military enforcements in the borders and at the same time the chief of staff Sobhy Saleh is visiting military bases at West Suez area according Colonel Ahmed Ali , Egyptian army Spokesperson.
Today we are having several protests in solidarity with Gaza. First we had a protest at League of Arab states at 12.30 PM where hundreds of protesters demanded the government to cut the relations with Israel. Despite there were different political powers , it was dominated by Islamists.
Ahmed Seif El Doula, the nationalist activist and President Morsi's advisor has participated in that protest.
Here is a photo gallery from dear friend Mahmoud Gamal El Din.
There will be another protest at LAS at 4 PM.
@8:20 PMMany updates happened all that time.
First of all Sirens have been heard in Tel Aviv and Islamic Jihad claimed responsibility of rockets that struck Tel Aviv.
This is considered the first time since 1990 that Arabic rockets would hit Israeli capital. Nevertheless Israeli officials deny that it hit Tel Aviv.
Confirmed: no rockets fell on Tel Aviv #PillarOfDefense— Ofir Gendelman (@ofirgendelman) November 15, 2012
Yet Israelis are speaking about a rocket that hit Holon area near Tel Aviv. Now The IDF and its official spokespersons online speak about land offensive , of course I do not know if they can do it or not but this is dangerous escalation.
A few minutes ago, sirens in Tel Aviv sent residents running for shelter. We can confirm that no rockets struck in the area.— IDF (@IDFSpokesperson) November 15, 2012
El Kassam brigadiers also announced that they hit down a drone.
Tonight is another scary worrying night as Israel announced that it called 3000 reservists for service preparing for another Gaza invasion.
Tomorrow a high official Egyptian delegation will head to Gaza. The delegation is headed by Egyptian PM Hisham Qandil. Of course Qandil is not the only important Egyptian official heading to Gaza , head of Egyptian intelligence Shahata will accompany him. Other names announced in the delegation include President's aides Pakinam El Sharkawy and Essam Haddad. I think Pakinam is not going to play an important role like both Shahata and Haddad. The minister of health is going with them too. Without doubt having Shahata in the picture means there are negotiations of truce taking place.
According to analysts in Egypt , this visit is approved and even recommended by not only Egypt but rather the United States. Obama already spoke with Morsi today and according to AFP the States asked Egypt to mediate between Hamas and Israel. Already at the time Muslim brotherhood members , supporters and Facebook pages claiming since the morning that Egypt is refusing to mediate between Hamas and Israel and he hang up on Bibi , Hamas officials told BBC correspondent in Gaza Jon Donnison.
Hamas official tells BBC #Egypt and European officials trying to mediate ceasefire over #Gaza #Israel violence. No sign of it yet.— Jon Donnison (@JonDonnison) November 15, 2012
There is news that Tunisian delegation will accompany the Egyptian delegation in its visit.
Humanitarian delegations started to head to Gaza already. The Arab Medical union is sending Envoys from now and is actually accepting donations. Strong Egypt Party "which is founded by Abdel Moneim Abu El Fotouh, the head of the Arab Medical union" is also organizing a convey to Gaza that will depart on Sunday. Mosireen will organize a convey if I understand right.By the way the death toll in Gaza has reached to 16 including 4 children and pregnant women

How to Use This Context
Inquiry Question
The courthouse as it exists today took nearly 40 years to complete. The original brick structure built in 1828 soon became too small for the growing city of St. Louis. A classical Greek Revival design that incorporated the brick courthouse as its east wing was opened on Washington's birthday, February 22, 1845. Throughout the years the courthouse continued to be remodeled and enlarged. The brick east wing was eventually replaced and another larger, more elaborate dome was designed and constructed. Not until July 4, 1862 was the courthouse declared officially complete. It was the tallest and most impressive building in St. Louis, rising more than 190 feet.

When a documentary crew wanted to film the emergency glow-strips that line the expansive stairwells in 7 World Trade Center, Dara McQuillan called down to the security desk and asked them to flick off the lights. Moments after the stairwell went dark, however, a backup power system switched on and ruined the shot.
Mr. McQuillan, vice president of communications for the building, called again, but when the security desk shut down the backup system, this time a battery-powered generator flooded the stairs with light. The crew never got its dramatic glow-in-the-dark shot.
It has been hailed as the safest building in the world, its 52-stories of glass elegance belying a concrete core built to be a bunker in the sky. It is the first skyscraper to be completed at the World Trade Center site, and as it approaches its second anniversary, its innovative architecture and endlessly redundant security features – most of them designed from the lessons of the Twin Towers catastrophic collapse – offer a template for high-rise buildings in a post-9/11 world.
"The biggest change in high-rise construction now is this sealed, hardened core," says Dr. Herb Hauser, president of New York-based Midtown Technologies, a firm that specializes in security technologies for
buildings. "This means that the structure around the core can go down, or be on fire, or be invested with a biological or chemical problem, but the actual core itself will be protected." [Editor's note: The original version incorrectly stated that Dr. Hauser worked with architects designing new buildings for the World Trade Center site in New York. He didn't.]
At least three skyscrapers under construction that will surpass the height of the world's tallest building, Taipei 101 in Taiwan, are using the concrete-core technique (as well as a number of others under proposal in Russia and Korea). Indeed, the 1,776-foot high Freedom Tower, the anchor of the World Trade Center site, will in many ways simply be a larger version of the adjacent 7 WTC. The Chicago Spire, at 2,000 feet high, and Burj Dubai, soon to be the tallest building in the world at a staggering 2,700 feet, will also each have hollow concrete spines anchoring floors that will cascade and twist around them.
Making buildings with a concrete core isn't a new idea, but the cost of constructing them in the past has been prohibitive. "The main drawback at one time was that a steel frame was so much faster to build," says Mir Ali, professor of architecture at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. "It took you approximately three to four days to build a steel-frame floor. With concrete, it used to take 10 to 14 days a floor."
But with advances in construction techniques – better and cheaper concrete, more powerful pumps, easy-to-assemble slip and fly forms – crews can now put up a concrete core as fast as a steel frame. Moreover, very tall steel-frame buildings like the former World Trade Center towers and the Sears Tower often shimmy and sway in the wind. The top floor of a concrete-core high rise is as solid as a first-floor lobby.
And yet, since such buildings are, in part, towering symbols of power and strength, and therefore important symbolic targets, the question persists: Will tenants want to work in them? Ellis Rubinstein, president of the New York Academy of Sciences, the first organization to sign a lease at 7 WTC, recalls a number of board members and employees who were wary of working in a high rise at the site. "But the reverse was also quite true, actually. There was a great deal of pride that we were standing for the revitalization of the area," he says.
In addition to 7 WTC and the Freedom Tower, Larry Silverstein, the leaseholder of the site, is planning three more massive skyscrapers in the area. "Larry's big gamble in building over 7 million square feet of office space without tenants is that people will soon want more out of their buildings," says McQuillan.
Old Wall Street buildings, forming the "canyons" of 1930s-era high rises, often choke off the signals for legions of BlackBerrys, and just aren't built for the high-tech business needs of today. In 10 years, Mr. Silverstein believes, Wall Street firms will head a few blocks west to Greenwich Street, near the World Trade Center site, leaving the historic business district to the luxury loft renovators. But first he must convince them these state-of-the-art buildings are state-of-the-art safe.
The sense of security architects tried to build into the hollow spine of 7 WTC, which has tenants on 30 of 42 available floors, starts with the glow-strip lined stairs. Stadiumlike in size, the stairwells allow a space where evacuees can rest or the wheelchair-bound can wait for assistance. They are also pressurized to force out smoke, and engineers have incorporated dual standpipes and extra water storage for the sprinkler system.
But beyond the concrete core, 7 WTC has a host of other security features. The building's skin is made almost entirely of glass, and since the foundation is designed like a diamond parallelogram, the structure gives off a crystalline appearance – hardly the look of a concrete bunker in the sky.
The glazing process incorporates new bomb-resistant technologies into the glass that eliminate flying shards – and actually shield the structure from an explosion, deflecting the energy of a blast. Windows are double-paned, laminated, and layered with a new plastic polymer. The windows near the lobby are reinforced with inner cables that would, like a rubber band, absorb a blast and snap back.
The lobby features another use of "new" glass. A 65-by-14-foot art installation behind the reception desk doubles as a bomb shield for the elevator lobby. The installation has two laminated glass walls. Each wall is a series of vertical panes that tilt inward, like a giant hinge, and spring back in the event of an explosion. Designed by James Carpenter and conceptual artist Jenny Holzer, the display flashes illuminated poetry and prose.
"It's quite robust in its strength, although it's relatively delicate in terms of its visual presence," says Mr. Carpenter, a sculptor and architect at James Carpenter Design Associates here.
Throughout 7 WTC, architects have tried to convey openness and optimism rather than a fortress mentality. Even the first eight floors, which are windowless and house a utility substation, are wrapped in a stainless-steel screen that glows a faint blue after dusk. The wall contains light sensors that create a drifting illumination whenever a pedestrian walks near it. "We're always trying to harness two things," says Carpenter, "performance and visual aesthetics."
Indeed, as four larger towers begin to rise at Ground Zero, architects in a post-9/11 world must balance safety with art, commerce, and community interests. "There's no doubt in anyone's mind that as they're building these towers," says Hauser, "somebody overseas is thinking about how to take them down again."

Steelers' Pouncey could switch from center to guard
The Steelers' offensive line has been so decimated by injuries that the team plans to move its All-Pro center to guard.
Maurkice Pouncey, who leads the AFC in Pro Bowl voting for centers, will shift to left guard for Sunday's game against Baltimore if Willie Colon's balky knee doesn't show improvement.
Colon missed last week's Cleveland game and didn't practice Wednesday. He would only say that he's taking the injury day to day.
Pouncey, a former first-round pick, didn't hesitate when asked to make the move.
"Whatever is best for the team," he said.
The Steelers believe what's best for the line, which has injuries to Colon, Mike Adams and Marcus Gilbert, along with David DeCastro coming off the injured reserve three days ago, is to move Pouncey so Doug Legursky can be put at his natural center spot.
The Steelers believe Legursky is better suited for center than guard. He started at guard for Colon last week and allowed the Browns' only sack.
"I think it is no secret around the league or around this locker room that I am a better center than I am a guard," Legursky said. "I know personally that I am more natural there."
The question is if Pouncey can make the adjustment to guard. He hasn't played there since his freshman year at Florida, when he started 11 of 13 games at right guard. Pouncey moved to center for his final two years before getting drafted by the Steelers in 2010.
Pouncey played guard through the summer and into the first week of training camp his rookie year before making the switch to center. He hasn't taken a snap at guard since, even in practice.
"I think he would be very efficient at left guard if he is plugged in," right guard Ramon Foster said. "What is going to be the toughest adjustment for him is using his hands and how to set guys. At guard, you have more one-on-ones and are by yourself. It will be something he will have to get used to."
The Steelers practiced in pads Wednesday, in part, to give Pouncey, who will leave the offensive line calls to Legursky, a better feel of what to expect on game day.
"It gave me the opportunity to go out there and get the technique down at guard and … (see) the physicality of it," Pouncey said. "I will be ready."
The Steelers' offensive line could have three different starters from a week ago — Pouncey at guard, Legursky at center and rookie Kelvin Beachum at right tackle.
"We all work really well together just because all of the different positions we've played," Legursky said. "I really don't think it is going to be a change."

It's Your Big Day, Deer!
I've always thought hunting-themed cakes were somewhat inappropriate for a groom's cake. In fact, when it comes to distasteful metaphors, I'm pretty sure this has the best shot at killing the mood:
Hey, the only thing missing is a little veil on the dead deer's head! That's right, blushing brides: You've been bagged and tagged...WITH LOVE.
Also, check out the poor little doe standing nearby. You can almost hear her saying, "Henry? HENRY, SPEAK TO ME!!" (Because all male deer are named Henry. Obviously.)
So, in addition to insinuating that the groom has metaphorically killed the bride - who is a male deer (have fun, Freud!) - the metaphor is also saying he broke up another couple in the process?
Ice cream with that?
You know, K.J., my own wedding theme was "The Search is Over," because John and I like 80s ballads. After seeing this, I'm thinking we should have gone with "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" instead. "Fire away!"

Rocket that will carry cargo ship test launched
Antares', a private rocket, lifted off from NASA's Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia. The third time was apparently the charm, as its launch was previously scrubbed twice. VPC
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — A new commercial rocket proved it is ready to start boosting cargo to the International Space Station with a historic test flight Sunday from Virginia's Eastern Shore.
Orbital Sciences Corp.'s Antares rocket blasted off at 5 p.m. from Wallops Island — becoming the largest rocket to do so.
About 10 minutes after the launch on Virginia's Eastern Shore, Orbital of Dulles, Va., declared the test a success after observing a practice payload reach orbit and safely separate from the rocket.
The Sunday launch comes after two previous attempts were scrubbed. A data cord that was connected to the rocket's second stage came loose just minutes before the rocket was set to lift off Friday, and company officials said they were easily able to fix the problem. A second attempt Saturday was scrubbed because of wind.
The milestone set the stage for the Antares to launch a real cargo spacecraft, called Cygnus, on a demonstration mission to the station. That flight is tentatively planned in late June or early July.
"That's great news," space station commander Chris Hadfield radioed after being told of the successful launch. "Congratulations to all concerned, and that bodes well for all of our futures. Super."
The rocket's maiden flight came just more than five years after NASA selected Orbital to participate in a public-private partnership developing new rockets and spacecraft to resupply the station after the space shuttle's retirement.
The program already included SpaceX, whose Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon capsule last year became the first privately operated vehicles to reach the station and have now completed three successful visits.
NASA wants two commercial cargo suppliers up and running to ensure the station always has enough food and science experiments to support a crew of up to six.
NASA chief Charlie Bolden said the successful Antares launch also could help secure funding to fly astronauts commercially.
"Now we'll be able to go to the Hill and we'll be able to go other places and just say, 'OK, look what we just did. We've got two providers, we know how to do this stuff, and so have faith in American industry,' " Bolden said Sunday in congratulatory remarks to the launch team.
NASA is seeking $821 million next year to design and test private space taxis to carry astronauts under development by three companies — including SpaceX but not Orbital — with the goal of flights to the station by 2017.
SpaceX was awarded a $1.6 billion contract by NASA in 2006 to make a dozen missions to restock the space station. Orbital got into the mix in 2008 when it was awarded a $1.9 billion contract for eight deliveries.
SpaceX has connected with the space station three times.
In addition to testing the rocket systems, the mission dubbed "A-ONE" marked the first use of a new launch pad at Virginia's Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport.
After Orbital chose to launch from Wallops Island instead of Cape Canaveral, Fla., the state and NASA invested more than $140 million in the new pad and other facilities.
"That's a pretty good investment in the Eastern Shore here, and I think it has paid off," said Orbital executive Frank Culbertson, a former astronaut who directed the test flight.
Preliminary results showed the Antares and the pad performed well, though the launch did start a small brush fire that was not considered serious.
The launch team cheered as the rocket's first and second stages separated, then a payload fairing and finally the payload itself, placed in an orbit about 160 miles high.
The 8,400-pound "mass simulator," which had the shape and weight of a Cygnus spacecraft, will stay in orbit for about two weeks before being destroyed during re-entry through the atmosphere.
The dummy payload deployed four miniature satellites, including a trio powered by smartphones.
If the next demonstration mission goes well, Orbital would be cleared to fly the first of eight station resupply missions.
Orbital hopes Antares also will win launches of commercial and government satellites.
"We've proven we can do it," Culbertson said.
Orbital is under contract to deliver about 44,000 pounds of supplies to the space station and plans to make about two deliveries per year. Its cargo ship will carry about 4,400 pounds worth of supplies on each of its first three missions and 5,600 pounds on its last five.
Unlike the SpaceX's Dragon capsule, the Orbital cargo ship is not designed to return with experiments or other items from the space station. Instead, plans call for filling the Cygnus ship with garbage that would be incinerated with the vessel upon reentry into Earth's atmosphere. That's also what Russian, European and Japanese cargo ships do.
Orbital had hoped to begin its rocket launches under the commercial resupply program in 2011, but faced a series of delays. That included a delay in the completion of its launch pad at NASA's Wallops Flight Facility on the Virginia coast. That pad was built specifically for Orbital and is owned by the Virginia Commercial Space Flight Authority. The pad wasn't delivered to the company until October.
Sunday's launch drew scores of onlookers to Wallops Island's visitor center on the mainland several miles away, where people set up blankets and camp chairs near marshland to view the launch. Road signs also directed rocket launch fans to nearby Assateague Island, where the rocket launch could be seen from the beach.
For Mike Horocofsky of Rock Hall, Md., it was his third time making the drive down to the Virginia facility in hopes of seeing Antares lift off.
"I'd rather be doing this than anything else. It's just something I've enjoyed since I was a boy," Horocofsky said several hours before the launch, while setting up chairs for himself and his wife.

Brass Ecstasy At Newport (Greenleaf Music)
Vincent Chancey (french horn)
Luis Bonilla (trombone)
Marcus Rojas (tuba)
Nasheet Waits (drums)
Dave Douglas has been beyond the borders of jazz since he started out in the early '90s. An artist who for those unfamiliar, has combined the exuberance of Louis Armstrong, the adventure of Lester Bowie and the artfulness of Woody Shaw into what I believe is the best and most creative trumpeter of his generation. Douglas' new album Brass Ecstasy At Newport is just more evident of how he is making a definitive statement inside and outside the jazz landscape.
This is essentially a live document of Dave Douglas' newest of many collective ideas Brass Ecstasy debut album from last year, Spirit Moves (Greenleaf Music). The performance was originally recorded by WGBO in Boston so the sound quality is excellent. But its the music that really delivers on an astonishing note.
This live performance surfs with New Orleans territory with more verve and intrigue than others have done over the last decade. Both the title track and "Fats" swing and generate a rich excitement that later lays into the bluesy outlook of "I'm So Lonely I Could Cry." The twelve minute closing number "Bowie" is a wonderfully brilliant tribute to the legendary Lester Bowie in which each member explodes in festive form that the great trumpet would undoubtedly enjoy.
Every Dave Douglas fan will gravitate to this live outing with no problems. The real thing is what those of you who haven't discovered Dave Douglas should do. If you are a fan of Armstrong but also are looking for something updated, different and compelling, Brass Ecstasy At Newport is a great introduction to one of many Dave Douglas projects. And could, along with the studio album, Spirit Moves make two perfect companions that will definitely open your world to one the greatest trumpeters of the late 20th Century and one of the future legends of the 21st.

Joyner to return to Phillies coaching staff in '14
PHILADELPHIA -- Remember when the Phillies announced Wally Joyner declined to return as assistant hitting coach?
He apparently changed his mind.
PHILADELPHIA -- Remember when the Phillies announced Wally Joyner declined to return as assistant hitting coach?
He apparently changed his mind.
The Phillies announced Thursday that Joyner will return in 2014, working alongside hitting coach Steve Henderson. Joyner received high marks this season from players, particularly left fielder Domonic Brown, who enjoyed a breakout season.
The club also announced Juan Samuel will return as first-base coach.
But the Phillies are still looking for a pitching coach and bullpen coach. Rod Nichols, who was the bullpen coach in 2013, remains in play for one of those jobs. If Nichols returns, it means former pitching coach Rich Dubee and catching coach Mick Billmeyer will be the lone casualties from last season's coaching staff.
"We're still working through it," Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said when asked about the pitching coach. "We're still doing our due diligence. We've seen a few we've really liked, but we're continuing the search. We're still working through candidates."
Joyner, who spends his offseasons in Utah, might have wanted to find a job closer to home, as well as be a head hitting coach.
"I called him back, had a nice conversation with him and decided to rekindle the relationship," Amaro said. "I think we're all happy. The combination of Wally and Hendu is very good. Even though we didn't have a great offensive year, I think the hitters really bought into some of the things they were working on. Hopefully, that'll continue."
The Phillies also outrighted four players from the 40-man roster: right-hander J.C. Ramirez, left-hander Cesar Jimenez and outfielders Roger Bernadina and Casper Wells.
Todd Zolecki is a reporter for MLB.com.

The blowdown valve upgrade is a component which can be added to existing surface drilling equipment running the Reverse Circulation (RC) system. It provides added functionality to allow for continuous and trouble free operation while drilling in challenging conditions.
When actuated the blowdown valve allows the operator to clear the inner tube or drill bit blockages and/or clear material from the drill hole without turning off the drilling air or disconnecting the drill string.

The Louisville guard got the honor of ceremoniously cutting down the net after the Cardinals' NCAA championship win. VPC
ATLANTA — The script played out like it was supposed to, like it had to. Because after a week of universal support from across the country, what other way could Kevin Ware have ended the season?
Certainly, not as a runner-up. Not after all that happened. A gruesome leg injury, an emotional response and a rallying cry followed by a week in which he became a national celebrity.
His Louisville teammates delivered the storybook ending, beating Michigan 82-76 in the national championship game at the Georgia Dome on Monday. The teammate who had motivated them throughout the past week relished an unexpected chance to cut down the nets with guys he calls his brothers.
LOUISVILLE: Luke Hancock makes title-game history
PITINO: Coach stands alone with accomplishment
MORE: 10 things to know about Louisville's win
"This was a lot bigger to us than a lot of people think, so I wasn't worried," Ware said, a pile of confetti at his feet and his crutches on the court.
After each of the players had taken his trip up the ladder to cut down the nets, the basket was lowered. Leaning on his crutches, Ware finished the job. The reserve guard whose injury rallied his team and made national headlines was the last with the honors, which he didn't know was coming.
"They kind of told me last minute, so I really was thankful for that," Ware said. "It meant everything, honestly. Not being able to play but still being able to cut down the nets, that was big."
The Cardinals had been gunning for the school's first title since 1986 all year, but Ware's injury on March 31 added motivation to that pursuit. It almost derailed it too, his teammates so affected by the sight of his bone sticking six inches out of his leg that they wept on the court.
He told his teammates to just win the game, and they did. It was one of a myriad of special memories for coach Rick Pitino.
"I look back on it and say, 'That was really, really special.' I was glad to be part of this team," Pitino said. "It just happened to us, but it's really special."
The University of Louisville players commented on their NCAA Championship win over University of Michigan saying that the game was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and a dream come true. VPC
Ware's injury was one of several motivating factors for the team, one of the many things that made the tournament run memorable for the Cardinals. Luke Hancock came off the bench to be named the most outstanding player of the Final Four, all while his father battles a serious illness that almost kept him from attending.
And Pitino capped off a memorable week with the title. Earlier Monday, he was announced as an inductee in the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame class.
Still, it was Ware who stole the show from the bench even as he focused on his teammates.
"I think because of the injury what makes this game bigger than what it is, even though it's the national championship," said former Cardinals forward Terrence Williams, himself wearing a Ware jersey. "I think he's humbled by it."
The net still draped around this neck, Ware reflected on what would mean the most from this journey – one that saw a devastating injury bring a flood of support. He has months of rehab ahead of him for an injury whose full effects aren't yet known. What would he remember about a moment of misfortune that brought him a week of love and support? That brought him a national title?
"Those guys, honestly," he said of his teammates. "Those guys right there competing with me not being there. … These guys are great."

Willis McGahee is no stranger to coming back from serious leg injuries. He's facing yet another challenge.
Fox Sports insider and NFL Network contributor Jay Glazer reported Monday that the Denver Broncos running back will miss six to eight weeks after suffering a torn medial collateral ligament and a fracture in his leg during Sunday's 30-23 win over the San Diego Chargers.
NFL.com's Albert Breer later confirmed McGahee's injuries to his right leg.
Doctors told McGahee not to put any weight on his leg, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. McGahee will not need surgery, and he believes he can return in four to six weeks.
Broncos coach John Fox said via The Associated Press that the team doesn't plan to place McGahee on injured reserve.
McGahee was injured at the conclusion of an 8-yard run in the second quarter Sunday. He had been optimistic the injury wasn't going to cost him any time, but an MRI revealed the damage.
McGahee had been enjoying a strong season as the featured back in Denver, rushing for 731 yards on 167 carries and four touchdowns in 10 games. With McGahee sidelined, Ronnie Hillman is expected to handle the bulk of the carries for the Broncos, although Lance Ball, Knowshon Moreno and Jeremiah Johnson also could be in the mix.
McGahee was the 23rd overall pick by the Buffalo Bills in the 2003 NFL Draft, despite suffering one of the most gruesome knee injuries in recent memory during his final college game with the University of Miami. McGahee sat out his rookie season with Buffalo, but he has put together a sturdy NFL career with three teams over 10 seasons.

Vista, the PRS JV between Hermes and Countrywide, forward purchases the first phase of Manchester Waters, Trafford from Rowlinson Construction in £23m deal
Vista, the residential property fund established by Countrywide plc, the UK's largest property services group, and Hermes Investment Management, the £23 billion manager focused on delivering superior, sustainable, risk adjusted returns to its clients – responsibly, has signed contracts to forward purchase the first phase of Manchester Waters, Trafford from Rowlinson Construction for just over £23 million.
The development achieved planning consent in November 2015 for 164 build-to-rent ("BTR") apartments (totalling 96,547 sq ft) and 105 car parking spaces. It is being developed by Rowlinson Construction, which has acquired the site on long leasehold from Peel Land & Property.
It is Vista's second largest PRS scheme following the forward purchase of Baltic Village in Liverpool, which exchanged last year. This phase at Manchester Waters will be the first scheme to be developed at Pomona Island, which is located on the south west fringe of central Manchester, and situated within one of the city's burgeoning residential urban villages. The site also has excellent Metro and transport connectivity to MediaCityUK in Salford Quays and the city centre.
The acquisition of this phase of Manchester Waters is in line with Vista's investment strategy of delivery of high-quality, serviced, modern build-to-rent apartments in leading regional locations with a high demand for new housing.
Chris Taylor, Head of Private Markets at Hermes Investment Management, said: "The combined strengths and expertise of Hermes Investment Management and Countrywide allows us to deliver extremely attractive UK BTR assets that appeal to both investor's requirements and accessible living for the local population.
"Manchester is one of the UK's strongest regional economies and has particularly robust professional and financial service industries helping to continue its growth trajectory. Manchester Waters is therefore a long-term investment for Vista and falls in line with our strategy of focusing on high-quality, new BTR assets across the UK."
Graham Bell, managing director at Countrywide, said: "The build-to-rent sector is expected to grow significantly over the coming years. Vista, which brings the best of both Countrywide and Hermes Investment Management together, aims to be in the forefront of this growth by forward funding to acquire assets across the UK.
"As the UK's largest letting and property management company, Countrywide will provide Manchester Waters residents with a professionally managed and customer-focused experience at affordable prices for people living and working in Manchester."
David Roberts, Managing Director at Rowlinson Construction, added: "I am delighted Rowlinson is delivering the first phase of Peel's Manchester Waters site, with our partners, Hermes Investment Management and Countrywide. We recognise that there is a huge unmet demand for this type of high quality market rented housing in this part of the city. In response, we have put together a formidable and dynamic partnership to help deliver this exciting project, which will be a great success."
Vista was established as a joint venture between Countrywide and Hermes Investment Management in October 2014 and, whilst returns cannot be guaranteed, aims to achieve a target investor-level return of 9-10 per cent per annum, net of fees. The Fund currently has a £200 million pipeline, with a target growth of £1 billion over the next five years. Medium term, its expansion targets are between £250 million and £400 million a year.
Rowlinson Construction and Peel Land & Property were represented by their own internal teams respectively.
Rowlinson Construction will start on site in April 2016.

JACKSON, Miss. - Today the Mississippi State Department of Health (MSDH) reports the third West Nile virus (WNV) death for 2013. The death occurred in a Forrest County resident who was a previously reported human case. The state total for 2013 is now 43 human cases, including three deaths. The other two deaths occurred in Forrest and Bolivar counties.
So far this year, cases have been reported in Adams, Bolivar, Forrest (6), Harrison, Hinds (12), Jones (2), Lamar (5), Leflore (2), Lincoln, Lowndes, Madison (3), Marion, Pike, Rankin (5) and Wayne counties. The MSDH only reports laboratory-confirmed cases to the public.
In 2012, Mississippi had 247 WNV cases and five deaths.
Mississippians should take appropriate precautions to reduce the risk of contracting WNV and other mosquito-borne illnesses year-round: remove sources of standing water, especially after rainfall; and if you will be in mosquito-prone areas, wear protective clothing (such as long-sleeved shirts and pants) during peak times from dusk until dawn, and use a recommended mosquito repellent according to manufacturer's directions.
Symptoms of WNV infection are often mild and may include fever, headache, nausea, vomiting, a rash, muscle weakness or swollen lymph nodes. In a small number of cases, infection can result in encephalitis or meningitis, which can lead to paralysis, coma and possibly death.
For more information on WNV and other mosquito-borne illnesses, a checklist to reduce the mosquito population in and around homes, and recommended mosquito repellents, visit the MSDH website at www.HealthyMS.com/westnile or call the WNV toll-free hotline from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. Monday through Friday at 1-877-WST-NILE (1-877-978-6453).

More than 1,000 Penn Staters participated in 20/20 Energy Challenge, a two-week competition in April, in which faculty and staff practiced several positive energy saving habits, tracking them each day with a pledge sheet. Through simple activities, such as turning off lights in unoccupied rooms, taking the stairs, and putting computers and printers to sleep, the challenge aided Penn Staters to focus on helping Penn State achieve its goal of a 20 percent energy reduction by 2020.
"I had no idea that my computer was not set to sleep when inactive for a period of time," said one Green Team member commenting about what she learned from Penn State's 20/20 Energy Challenge.
In all, 26 teams from multiple campuses participated in the challenge. Four Green Teams won by engaging the highest number of non-Green Team participants. OPP's Design and Construction team and the Penn State Shenango Green Team won the first place prizes of a catered lunch. Teams from the Bursar's Office and Penn State DuBois won the second prize of a pizza lunch.

I'm Actually NOT Ready For Some Football
I generally try to avoid sports-related stuff like watching ball games, playing ball games, or excessive movement, but even *I* can tell by my Facebook feed that something sports-related is going on. (Or went on. Or is going to go on. STOP PRESSURING ME I JUST DON'T KNOW OKAY?)
So I asked John about it, and he said he thought it was football season. Which might explain some of the stranger submissions I've been getting this week.
Like this:
Thank goodness. I've been waiting for You Teaw to get here for WEEKS.
Or this:
This is actually a perfect visual representation of my sports knowledge: half hearted, blatantly incorrect, and really confusing.
And speaking of confusing:
LITTLE KNOWN SPORTS FACT: Did you know footballs are like puffer fish? It's true! Check it out:
And while we're at it, remember those Hanukkah cakes with the five-pointed stars? Well, here's your problem:
Turns out there was just a mix-up with the Dallas "Cow-Boys."
(Oy vay! Get that pig skin outta here!)
Now it's time to play everyone's favorite football-cake-related game:
Sooo... Turkey? Or football?
Take your time; I'll just be over here humming the Jeopardy theme in between dry heaves. (Is that paprika? *hurk*)
Now this, on the other hand, is a football cake I'd totally buy:
This is an intentional joke Amber made for her bakery manager, but it turned into an unintentional wreck when he put it out on the sales floor to sell. I like to think someone with a similarly snarky sensibility snapped it up.
And finally, a "cake" that perfectly sums up all this football wreckage:
My thoughts exactly.
Thanks to Amber M., Binah, Nilolai N., Rachel L., Claire G., Ellen D., Caitlyn H., Amber G., & Benjamin B. for the home "runs." [snerk]

Can't make it to store? Don't worry. We deliver across the UK and EU to curb your cravings wherever you are.
Every year, Swedish mulled wine makers Blossa come up with a new an exciting flavour. This year's annual Blossa 2014 glögg is Lavender and comes in a beautiful light purple bottle.
We've also now got stock of all the usual 'Glögg' mulled wines from Blossa, so do pop by and stock up both in the cafe store and online as well.
To serve Blossa Glogg mulled wine, simply heat gently and serve up in little mugs – with almonds and raisins either in or on the side.
The difference between the Blossa mulled wines:
The red one: Standard Blossa amazingness. 10% alcohol. This is the most popular one.
Green label: Light mulled wine at 2,2% alcohol – but same great taste
Orange label – strong mulled wine, 15% alcohol.
Clear bottles – flavoured with either Cognac or Rum, these are a lot stronger and you do not need very much of it – but a log fire and a cottage in the snow helps to bring out the full ambiance.
Shop for our full range of Glögg online or in our shop in London

400 migrants repelled from Spanish enclave border
MADRID (AP) — Officials say some 400 sub-Saharan migrants stormed Spain's multiple-barbed-wire border fences separating its North African enclave of Melilla from Morocco, but failed in their bid to enter Europe.
A regional government statement said Spanish and Moroccan police, aware of the pending attempt, managed to force most of the crowd back early Wednesday.
It said some 150 migrants managed to get into the area between the fences but were returned to Morocco.
Spain's North African city enclaves of Melilla and Ceuta are regularly targeted by large groups of African immigrants living illegally in Morocco and trying to cross into Europe in search of a better life.
Both countries stepped up vigilance in February after 15 migrants drowned trying to reach Ceuta.

He will also lack experience for many years. I don't know much about Jones, but I do know that guys like Ray Bourque don't grow on trees.
Yes he will lack experience. But he is a bigger version of Letang, and is American so less prone to stupidity, and much cheaper than Letang for a long time.

Monique and the Mango Rains: Two Years with a Midwife in Mali
Waveland Press, 2007 - 212 pages
"This tender, revelatory memoir recalls the two years Holloway spent as an impressionable Peace Corps volunteer in the remote village of Nampossela in Mali, West Africa. It centers on her close friendship with Monique, the village's overburdened midwife. When Holloway (now a nonprofit development specialist) arrived in Nampossela in 1989, she was 22; Monique was only two years her senior. Yet Monique, barely educated, working without electricity, running water, ambulances or emergency rooms, was solely responsible for all births in her village, tending malnourished and overworked pregnant women in her makeshift birthing clinic. With one of the highest rates of maternal death in the world, these Malian women sometimes had to work right up until and directly after giving birth and had no means of contraception. Holloway especially noted Monique's status as an underpaid female whose male family members routinely claimed much of her pay. Monique shared her emotional life with Holloway, who in turn campaigned for her rights at work and raised funds for her struggling clinic. Holloway's moving account vividly presents the tragic consequences of inadequate prenatal and infant health care in the developing world and wi.

Like many franchisees, Robert U. Mayfield, who owns five Dairy Queens in and around Austin, Tex., is always eager to expand and — no surprise — has had his eyes on opening a sixth DQ. But he said concerns about the new federal health care law had persuaded him to hold off.
"I'm scared to death of it," he said. "I'm one of the ones sitting on the sidelines to see what's really going to happen."
Mr. Mayfield, who has 99 employees, said he was worried he would face penalties of $40,000 or more because he did not offer health insurance to many of his full-time workers — generally defined as those working an average of 30 hours a week or more. Ever since the law was enacted in 2010, opponents have argued that employers who were forced to offer health insurance would lay off workers or shift more people to part-time status to compensate for the additional cost. Those claims have drawn considerable attention — and considerable anger in response — in recent weeks.

In this video, I create a small library project, using the tutorial code from the HTF tutorial, then use the HTF Test Suite wizard in the Cabal editor to generate automatically the cabal test-suite stanza, the main module and a test module per library module I want to test.
The I paste in the actual HTF code, and run the test suite. The results show in the new Haskell Test Results View. I correct the mistakes, wait for the rebuild, and the tests pass!
This will be part of the EclipseFP 2.3.3 release (or maybe I'll call it 2.4), that will be released probably as soon as HTF version 0.10 is released.
I'm still experimenting with screen captures and YouTube video, so apologies if the video is not crystal clear. Best viewed on the large viewer, I guess.

Grill enthusiasts who depend on barbecue sauces and marinades to awaken meats may be missing the boat.Nothing can add character and a kick to beef and pork like a good rub.A rub is simple, dry powder usually made of spices, salts and sugars that's applied to meat before it's grilled.It not only boosts the flavor, but also forms a tasty crust by clinging to the meat.According to the Web site www.fiery–foods.com, rubs work well because they "open up" the meat.

SPIN – A New Way to Learn to Farm.
SPIN stands for s-mall p-lot in-tensive, and the SPIN-Farming learning series teaches you how to take a backyard, front lawn or neighborhood lot to new levels of productivity and profitability that go far beyond traditional home gardening practices. Whether you want to farm professionally, or produce a significant supply of commercial-grade crops for your family and friends, follow the system that has already launched thousands of new home and community-based farm operations throughout the US and Canada.
Here are SPIN-Farming's Key Characteristics:
- Production based
- Sub-acre in scale
- Low capital intensive
- Entrepreneurially driven
- Environmentally friendly
- Close to markets
SPIN-Farming's systematized approach to farm learning has its own lexicon and gives you everything you need to start producing food that has all the nutrition of farm-grown and the value and quality of store-bought. Outlined in the SPIN guides is everything you need to create a commercial-level farm in months, not years:
- A sub-acre scale farm design
- A relay planting concept that produces a consistent supply of a wide variety of vegetables for the longest possible time without costly season extension
- High-value crops lists
- Investment needed for various scales of operation
- Gear and tools list
- Detailed day-to-day workflow
- Professional grade harvesting and post-harvesting protocols.
- A business concept, if you want to go pro
- A brand that both growers and consumers want to support
- Marketing advice
- Revenue targeting formulas to produce steady cashflow
Here are the advantages to SPIN-Farming:
- It is non-technical and easy-to-learn.
- It is inexpensive to implement.
- It eliminates much trial and error.
- It accelerates progress.
- It provides specific benchmarks to measure success.
- It provides more control over outcomes and income.
- It provides access to the self-taught SPIN-Farming community for training, support and mentoring.
Why SPIN's new approach to farm learning is needed now is because, while farming has had a long oral tradition, with knowledge being passed down from generation to generation, that approach no longer works because 1) several generations have opted out of the farming profession, so there is a lack of sufficient mentors and 2) the type of farming that is being practiced has not kept up with the times, so much of the knowledge base that is available is out-of-touch with current economic and cultural realities. So there has to be a new way to learn to farm, and SPIN provides it.
On behalf of all those in the SPIN-Farming community, we invite you to join in this new peer-to-peer learning experiment that is making agriculture accessible to anyone, anywhere!
SPIN-Farming's Value Proposition
In farming you learn by doing, so the sooner you get an income-producing operation in and off the ground, the sooner you know how successful you will be at farming. Established agricultural programs costing thousands of dollars make farming more complicated and expensive than it needs to be for beginners.
Instead, purchase SPIN-Farming® Basics for $83.93 and SPIN 2.0 Production Planning & Crop Profiles for $69.98, join the peer-to-peer SPIN Online Support group, and start farming. You'll get just what you need to know to start, without being overwhelmed by knowledge that is more appropriate to acquire later in your career. The money you save from not getting entangled in more elaborate programs can be invested in your farm infrastructure, which, following the classic SPIN approach, is simple and affordable.
