Manning Would Have Been A Jet
Posted 04 February 2007 - 01:52 PM
history by staying in school instead of jumping to the NFL
If Peyton Manning (in photo illustration) chose to wear a Jets uniform, it might have been the Jets playing in the Super Bowl.
MIAMI - Peyton Manning might have become the greatest Jets quarterback of all time, better than Joe Willie Namath, if he didn't make the decision 10 years ago that stunned Bill Parcells. He returned to Tennessee for his senior year.
"I thought it was pretty unusual that a guy like him, who was pretty much the consensus first pick, would stay," Parcells told the Daily News from Dallas the other day before heading to his home in Saratoga. "I think he had his reasons. He enjoyed Tennessee, he enjoyed college football. I think his parents were encouraging him to stay."
Manning is finally playing in his first Super Bowl tonight, but who knows how many he would have made by now if Parcells, a future Hall of Famer, was his coach with the Jets instead of Jim Mora and Tony Dungy with the Colts? Manning's decision changed the course of Jets history. It was another indication of terrible luck. The Same Old Jets. Imagine if the Jets added Parcells and Manning in a two-month period.
Parcells would have loved to coach him.
"Anybody would have," he said. "There's very few Peyton Mannings."
Parcells inherited a 1-15 team and the first pick in the 1997 draft when he jumped from the Patriots to the Jets. Manning had just completed his junior year at Tennessee and although it was admirable how much he loved college, the Jets were counting on him coming out. Parcells clearly was not a fan of Neil O'Donnell. Manning, who has the work ethic of Phil Simms but is certainly more talented, would have thrived playing for Parcells.
But on March 5, 1997, six weeks before the draft, Manning made a stand for being true to your school and announced he was returning for his senior year. Parcells elected not to take offensive tackle Orlando Pace at No. 1, traded down twice in the first round and selected linebacker James Farrior at No. 8.
"Parcells shook things up for me a little bit when he was hired there," Manning said at the time. "It made this decision a lot tougher, knowing he was there. I had no negative thoughts about the Jets whatsoever. I have no doubt in my mind that Parcells will get them going again."
The NFL is strict against teams encouraging players to leave school early, and even 10 years later, Parcells says he was telling Manning, through intermediaries, to stay at Tennessee. But in his conversations with Archie Manning he gave him an indication about the Jets' intentions if Peyton declared for the draft.
"I was trying to stick with the rules," Parcells said. "But everybody knew if he did come out he'd be picked and we had the first pick. We were interested in a quarterback. I tried to be real generic with Archie. I told him I thought Peyton was an excellent player and we were interested in that position. I don't think I talked to Peyton."
The only way Parcells would have considered trading away the chance to take Manning was if he was offered "two or three drafts." Not two or three draft picks; two or three complete drafts. The Saints, picking second, and the Falcons, picking third, were prepared to make mega-offers for Manning, but the overwhelming feeling was Parcells was not going to trade the pick.
Instead, Parcells cut O'Donnell after just one season with him. He started the 1998 season with Glenn Foley, switched to Vinny Testaverde and made it to the AFC title game. Testaverde was injured in the first game of the '99 season and Parcells quit as Jets coach after the year.
If the Jets had Manning, there's no way Parcells would have walked away after only three years coaching him. "Who knows? Anything can happen," Parcells said. "You can't assume just because he came to New York that things would be the same as they were in Indianapolis. He was 3-13 in his first year with the Colts. If that happened in New York, you guys would call him a bust."
Manning was the first overall pick by the Colts in 1998, and now, after all these years of putting up great numbers, he is in the Super Bowl.

"I had my son try on these shoes at a store first and they fit great! I have had him ask for light up shoes before, but they are usually long on trademarks and short on quality. These had it all. cool looks, wider toe bridge and lights. The price was too high at all of the stores, so DSW to the rescue! I will start here fromnow on and save the time!"

Velcro strap broke :(
"My son wore these shoes for about 3 weeks before the velcro strap broke off of one shoe. I returned them and will buy again to give them another try. Maybe it's just a fluke? The light-up part worked great so I'll give them 2 stars, and if the 2nd pair lasts, I'll change my rating. For now, 2 stars."

The first of 2 various artist compilations from the field recordings made in Mozambique in 1989 by the GlobeStyle mobile recording team. 15 years of brutal war in this country has ensured that little of the remarkable music made there has ever been heard by the outside world. The GlobeStyle sound recordists travelled the length of the country from Pemba in the north to the intense heat of Tete (rated as the world's 3rd hottest place) in the south west by the Zambeze. The incredible range of music they recorded encompasses womens' choral sounds, heavy percussion, a kind of 'down home blues' and what can only be described as a cross between free jazz and trance music. A natural follow-up to GlobeStyle's journey down the lesser known music of other parts of East Africa - Madagascar and Zanzibar - Mozambique 1 is an ethno-beat sampler's paradise of sounds. Informative sleevenotes by GlobeStyle's world music expert Ben Mandelson, including personal insights into the Mozambique field recording experience.

Shen Min
Shen MIN Advanced Formula for Men
- Overview
- Ingredients
- Features
- Shen Min uses the only standardized root in the industry
- Each tablet contains 150 mg of 12:1 extract with 435 mg of raw herb
- Contains bioperine, a black pepper extract proven to help increase absorption and utilization of nutrients
- No binder or fillers are used
- Considered a natural alternative to Minoxidil and is 100% safe
- About the brand
Shen Min is a 100% natural hair nutrient derived from the eastern wild rose, best known for its ability to stimulate hair growth and restore graying hair to its original color. While the exact mechanism is still unknown, Shen Min extends the growth phase of the hair follicle, thus reducing the number of hairs in the resting phase and fall out phase. The net effect is a greater number of hairs growing and fewer falling out. Shen Min also blocks DHT from binding to the follicle. DHT is a leading cause of male pattern baldness because it helps deactivate the hair by binding to the follicle. Men produce greater levels of DHT as they age.
Other Ingredients: Microcrystaline Cellulose, Croscamellose Sodium, StearicAcid, Magnesium Stearate, Pharmaceutical Glaze.
Take one tablet two times daily, or as directed. One in the morning and one in the evening, without food.
Shen Min hair loss supplements revitalize your follicles promoting healthy hair growth. Shen Min's exclusive formula combines a mixture of natural ingredients including the herb Chinese knotweed, horse chestnut extract, silica, biotin and saw palmetto to maximize your hair's potential.

This Really WorksI have been taking this product for three months now and it has really made a huge difference in my hair. I am 45 and my hair was thining and had a lot of gray. I had always had thin hair growing up. After two months my hair was thicker and has more body. My hair dresser even commented that he couldnt believe how fast my hair is growing. I use to get my hair cut about every 6 weeks but now have to go every 4 weeks. I have had other people comment on how good my hair looks. I am very happy and will continue to use Shen Min forever.Feb 4, 2007NancyHAIR TYPEGrey / Fine or Thin Hair

With my thirdbottle of Shin Min I can definintely tella restoration of lost color.Unfortunately, I have no unshaven photofrom before.

Shen Min - Positive ResultsHi all - Ive been using Shen Min for about 4 years. I agree with others that while it initally thickens/improves exising folicles, it does not grow new hair. For me, it certainly delayed/defered greying and lets you better hold onto the hair that you have!One other observation - since I started this product, I havent had a single cold sore occurence of any consequence. Prior to using the product I had 1-2 nasty cold sore occurences per year (on lower nose/lips) with a 7-10 day recover time. Since Ive started this product im basically cold-sore free. Not sure if its the folate, but Im happy with the product and a committed customer.One last caveat - benefit seems to level off after about 2 years - havent seen any significant improvement (but no worsening other that which comes with age) since using it.No sexual side affects whatsoever!I would recommend trying the product.Nov 28, 2006Chris / Croton, NY

It Works18 months ago I started using a recommended shampoo along with Rogain, little change was noted. 8 months I started using Shin-men (1 tablet per day) in conjunction with the above listed and have experienced great results, my hair has regrown and it looks great and my wife loves it. Thank you for a great product. I am 53, with the hair of or a 30 year old. I have recommended Shin-men to my hair stylist and many of my close friends. Thanks again, Cole.Jun 24, 2006John Cole / Central Texas Area

Shen Min Doesn't WorkI tried Shen Min for men for 60 days. It did absolutely nothing in either thickening the hair, giving more body or growing hair.Waste of money, and of course there is no money back guarantee.SAve you money folk.Jun 10, 2006Mike / Holbrook,NY

Grows The Hair You HaveThe Shen Min formula will work best for people whose hair is thinning; it will not grow new hair. The hair you have will fall out less, and it will get longer and stronger.And that means hair *everywhere* you have hair, so take that as a caveat.I have not noticed any change in color.Drinking extra water, especially with the pills, is recommended, as is increasing blood circulation to your head via exercise, yoga, or an inversion table.Until they clone hair cells, the best those of us with thinning hair and slight baldness can do is keep what we have healthy, and a steady regimen of Shen Min, I believe, is helping me. Depending on your metabolism and overall condition, you may need 90 days or longer to see any effect, but other people may see changes in a few weeks.Apr 19, 2006Jeff / Los Angeles, CA

It Works!!its been a month now of taking shenmin. i am african so this may not apply to all hair types. anyways, this is the summary of what this shen min has done to may hair so far:1. it regrew my sides (temples, whatever you wanna call it)2. my hair is getting super black, youd think i dyed it.3. my hair is super soft; this is the greatest benefit shenmin has given me (apart from the 4th one). it feels as if im just from washing and patting it dry, that soft! this is not what i had in mind when i was buying this product, but thank God/nature for this quality. everytime i touch my hair, i for a quick second, forget its mine, since from childhood its always been hard. 4. yes, i do use propecia (proscar split into 4 tablets, God bless my doctor for prescribing me this cheap alternative; propecia was just too expensive; my doctor even suggested the proscar; i didnt have to beg him or do those stupid blood tests, by the way). well, this product(proscar), has helped keep my hair and after 7 months it regrow some as well (proscar). BUT it never regrew my tepmples/sides. shen min, has started regrowing my temples. maybe its coz im using them both; they should make shen min cheaper though, or ill fly to china and get my own he show vu or whatever they call it there. nowve ive paid my dues. ive given back what was given me. i hope this helps out others as well because i learned about this product on this page before i bought it; from your reviews.Dec 5, 2005Ken / Africa

Great ProductI have been using Shen Min for around 7 years. I use it in conjunction with Minoxidil and Propecia (prescription). Although Shen Min doesnt help grow hair, the combination of the 3 have worked to grow hair back (of course not the full head of hair I had when I was 18). The best benefit of Shen Min is that it makes my hair soft and shiney. I started taking Propecia and Minoxidil when I was in my early 30s. I was starting to lose my hair (male pattern baldness). I am now 44 and have the same amount of hair that I had at 31... I believe this is due to the 3 treatments I have been using over the years...May 30, 2005Paul / Dallas, TX

HOUSTON (AP) — Authorities say a shooting at a Houston-area community college that left three people wounded erupted after two men bumped into each other.
According to a probable cause affidavit, one of the three people who were wounded — Jody Neal — told investigators that a man later identified as Terry Foster shot him Tuesday after the two bumped into each other and argued.
Foster has been charged with two counts of aggravated assault in the shooting but not yet arrested.
Another man who was shot, Carlton Berry, was arrested previously and faces similar charges. Authorities say they are trying to determine his role in the shooting.
The third person shot was a maintenance man who got caught in the crossfire.
Authorities say at least 10 shots were fired.

For as much time as I have spent this off-season dreaming of a true number one center for the Sabres top line, the folks who run the team have set out with what appears to be a different blueprint in mind. They've loaded up in front of their goaltender. A four year deal with a cap hit of $2.75 million a season for Andrej Sekera is the latest example. With Sekera in the fold, Buffalo now have seven defensemen signed taking up around $18 million in cap space. That number will get a slight bump when Marc-Andre Gragnani signs. This will not set the Sabres apart dramatically as a look at the salary cap situations of the rest of the teams in the league shows.
Almost half the teams in the league spend at least $18 million on defensemen. The number is 14, assuming the Kings get Drew Doughty signed and his cap hit is north of $2.5 million, which of course it will be. Philadelphia leads the way with $23 million on the cap allocated to defensemen for the upcoming season. The Flyers also have made an investment in goal by adding Ilya Bryzgalov, who coupled with back-up Segei Bobrovsky gives the Flyers a whopping $7.4 million cap hit in goal. Add it up and we're talking $30 million on defense and in goal. That far and away is the most any team in the league is spending in their own end.
That is close to where the Sabres will be the season after next. Tyler Myers will be due for a new contract and a hefty raise. Even if you set his cap figure at $6 million, which I would sign up for in a second, his new salary will push the Sabres up over $21 million spent on defensemen. This includes the subtraction of Shaone Morrisonn's $2 million cap hit. Couple that $21 million dollars spent on d-men with Miller's $6.25 plus the back-up's salary and you are going to be at around $28 million spent on goalies and defensemen. That is more than anyone else in the league is spending this year, with the exception of the Flyers. Of course, the development of a kid could make a pricier veteran like Jordan Leopold expendable before we reach this projection in 2012-2013.
The conclusion I would draw from all of this is that the Sabres feel the best way for them to improve as a team is to be better defensively and if they can accomplish that, the offense will come. They were 9th in the league in goals scored last season with a sinkhole at center ice for most of the season. I would still like very much for the Sabres to find a way to make a deal and improve even more down the middle. I'm just thinking more and more that the big moves have been made and this is your team for 2011-2012.
Vanek, Roy, Stafford
Ennis, Leino, Pomminville
Gerbe, Hecht, Boyes
Kaleta, Gaustad, McCormick
Bubble forwards Kotalik, Adam, Kassian, Foligno
Myers, Regehr, Ehrhoff, Leopold, Sekera, Weber
Extra D, Gragnani and Morrisonn. Maybe Gragnani beats out Weber, but it doesn't change much.
They can get under the cap by moving Kotalik and Morrisson to the minors.

Report: Apple's Steve Jobs Received Liver Transplant and is Recovering
Jason Mick
June 20, 2009 11:45 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Apple observers noticed that CEO Steve Jobs' health dramatically decreased in 2008. Mr. Jobs reportedly has received a liver transplant and is currently recovering, eagerly awaiting a return to Apple at the month's end.
(Source: WSJ)
Apple's CEO and cofounder hopes to put his health problems behind him
Founding one of tech industry's biggest players -- Apple -- and personally turning the company around in the late nineties was nothing compared to the challenge that Apple CEO Steve Jobs faced in 2004. Battling a rare and deadly form of pancreatic cancer, Mr. Jobs recovered thanks to surgery and reassumed his leadership role at the company, integrally helping to conceive, develop and release hit products such as the iPhone and MacBook Air.
Last year, though, many observers took note that Mr. Jobs looked sickly at public appearances. Sure enough, in January of this year he took
medical leave
, announcing he would be gone from Apple on medical leave until the end of June. In his absence Apple Chief Operating Officer Timothy Cook took over many of the day to day duties.
Now details of Mr. Jobs' medical battle, veiled in secrecy, have at last emerged. According to a
by the
Wall Street Journal
Mr. Jobs received a liver transplant in Tennessee two months ago. Mr. Jobs had earlier this year had relocated from California to Tennessee, a state known for having a shorter waiting list for organ transplants. At the time
had reported that Mr. Jobs was applying for a liver transplant.
Apple spokespeople contacted by the
to seek confirmation of the sourced reports refused to comment, merely reiterating that Apple "continues to look forward to returning at the end of June, and there's nothing further to say." According to the
report, COO Cook may take over additional roles to help Mr. Jobs during his recovery.
Earlier this year it was discovered that Mr. Jobs was receiving hormone therapy. Reportedly he was unable to digest food properly and receive nutrients. The liver is an integral part of hormone production, and also produces bile, needed for digestion. The liver is very sensitive to toxins, and can be damaged by chemotherapy, which Mr. Jobs likely received during his cancer treatment.
Liver transplant recipients have a 58 percent chance of surviving 15 years. Liver transplants have been performed since 1967; the liver was the second organ to be successfully transplanted, with the kidneys being the first.
Mr. Jobs is currently 54. Apple fans are eagerly awaiting
his return
, as he has always pushed the company and given it a
creative spark
. Apple released its latest hot offering -- the iPhone 3G S --
this Friday
. Apple also announced new MacBook Pros, detailed its new OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), and revealed Quicktime X. Speculation has already begun that the company is preparing a major refresh to its iPod lineup for the fall.

OK, it's been awhile since I've posted to this blog, which is the basis for this post. I have two major automotive resolutions for the upcoming year. First, I am committed to posting more regularly. Maybe not every day, but at least several times a week.
My second New Year's resolution is to buy fewer rescue cars. I'm a sucker for a car that has an interesting story which, despite its former glory, would bury Warren Buffet in restoration costs. I have a garage full of these right now, and they really don't need any more company. Time to get some fixed, let some go and focus on buying better cars.To read more or comment...

Virgin Blue Offers To Send Humanitarian Flights To Christmas Island02/09/2001
The following statement was issued by Sir Richard Branson in Melbourne this morning:
"It is time that the approximately 150 women (and in particular the pregnant women) the children, the elderly and those people who are infirmed were taken off the sea. We have informed the Australian Government that Virgin is willing to send a plane to Christmas Island to take them on to New Zealand. The plane will be ready to fly the moment the Government requests it.
I don't wish to be drawn on the rights or wrongs of the decision this Government has made. This offer of a plane is due purely for humanitarian reasons. We have the equipment and many volunteers - both pilots and cabin crew at Virgin - who have said they'd contribute their time for nothing to help. The idea of sending a plane came from our staff who felt that these refugees should not suffer a day longer."

Carl Hicks' first encounter with pulmonary hypertension (PH) was in 1994. It was then that his 12-year-old daughter, Meaghan, a beautiful, active young girl began to get short of breath with increasing frequency. When she fainted after climbing just three steps it became obvious that something was very wrong. Like so many other PH patients Meaghan was initially diagnosed with asthma. Eventually her parents were informed that she had pulmonary hypertension which, they were told, was a "terminal illness and there was nothing they could do."
But getting to a PH specialist, Dr. Robyn Barst, and receiving the appropriate treatment, initially calcium channel blockers in her case, meant that Meaghan lived a longer, healthier life than anyone could have imagined. Years went by and Meaghan was mostly asymptomatic.
Though hesitant at first to get actively involved in PHA Carl decided in 2003 that he wanted "to do something more." He had been aware of PHA through our website and then Pathlight, PHA's quarterly newsletter. Initially he sat in on a Board of Trustees meeting to observe. What he saw impressed him. Here, he says, was an association that turned "every dollar into three" and did something worthy "with every dollar they had." He became a member of the PHA Board of Trustees in 2004 and later became its Chair.
Eventually Meaghan's PH did progress and despite a heart/lung transplant she passed away in 2009.
Carl, an army veteran, describes her as "the strongest person he has ever known."
Despite his loss, Carl continues his involvement with PHA in many ways including as a member of PHA's Legacy of Hope Society. Initially he wasn't sure how to go about giving a bequest but soon discovered it only involved a one-page notarized amendment to his will. "That's all it takes," he says. For him it then became a question of how could he not give: "I don't need it. Why wouldn't I, or indeed anyone, want to give."
"Legacy giving is one of the easiest ways to give back to PHA," Carl says. "What people don't realize is that you don't have to give everything, just the percentage that you are comfortable with." Legacy giving supports PHA's future in a number of ways: advocating for new PH research, raising awareness with the medical community and providing patient support. But for Carl it simply means helping "all the other Meaghans out there."

Despite mountains of evidence warning of the dangers of concussions, the biggest problem tends to be the athletes, many of whom would rather be a "tough guy" than speak up.
During a week in which NASCAR icon Dale Earnhardt Jr. said he had driven in at least five races with a concussion and NFL super-rookie Robert Griffin III was downplaying his concussion despite suffering memory loss after being knocked from a game with a vicious hit to the head, sports fans were again wondering if their favorite athletes — not to mention their sons and daughters — were so intent on being "tough guys" that they were risking brain damage.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell took an opportunity Wednesday to take the issue directly to where many believe it is needed most: kids.
After watching a group of youth football players in northern Virginia go through safe tackling drills, Goodell preached the message that good health takes precedence over being a tough guy.
SAFETY FIRST: How youth leagues are tackling issue
"You'll really have fun playing this game if you do it safely," Goodell said at Centreville High School, surrounded by pee-wee players from the Southwestern Youth Association Wildcats. "You've got to make sure that if you're injured and don't feel right, if something hurts, your head or your ankle or anything else, you've got to make sure you tell your coaches and your parents. Make sure they understand what happened to you. It's not about football. There's nothing wrong with raising your hand and saying, 'I don't feel good.'"
Bravo, says former UCLA linebacker Patrick Larimore, who was the Bruins' leading tackler last season but retired in fall camp of what would have been his senior year because of multiple concussions.
"You've got to get this message to kids," Larimore tells USA TODAY Sports. "They need to know when they enter the sport how serious head injuries are. They need to know about Junior Seau, guys who are killing themselves."
BY THE LEAGUES: Concussion policies
Larimore, disagreeing with some trainers and researchers who say athletes are becoming more candid about their injuries, says the culture in high-stakes college football hasn't changed that much.
"At the end of the day, you're just trying to get to the next level, man," he says. "This is a business. A job. You're trying to get hired, man. Trying to make a team any way you can. You're not going to tell anybody about it."
Changing tough guys
You soldier on. You shake it off. You just had your bell rung, and you get back in there.
That's the mentality that doctors, trainers and even coaches have been trying in recent years to change, given the studies and evidence showing the link between multiple concussions and severe brain damage — and, of course, the pile of lawsuits by former NFL players accusing the league of negligently withholding medical information about brain injuries.
But the tough guys are wont to keep trying to be tough guys.
That's essentially why Earnhardt, NASCAR's most popular driver, was still racing last weekend despite suffering from headaches after a crash during an Aug. 29 tire test in Kansas. Earnhardt was involved in the wild multi-car pileup Sunday at Talladega. He was diagnosed with a concussion Wednesday and is being held out of the next two races.
"The wreck at Kansas was really severe and it surprised me how tough it was to get past that," Earnhardt said Thursday . "I remember everything about that accident and everything after that accident, but you know your body and how your mind works, and I knew something was just not quite right. I decided to just try to push through and work through it."
Another NASCAR veteran driver, Jeff Burton, sees Earnhardt's situation as a shift in tough-guy driving mentality. "Ten years ago, we ain't having this conversation," he tells USA TODAY Sports, "because you just went on. It's easy to say you'll do the right thing. It's another thing to actually do it. When you've worked your whole life to be in this position, to give your seat up is very, very difficult, especially when you can hide it."
Jeff Gordon, one of NASCAR's greatest champions, leaves little doubt he would ignore cautions regarding a head injury if something big were at stake.
"If I have a shot at the championship and there's two races to go and my head is hurting and I just came through a wreck and I'm feeling signs of it but I'm still leading the points or I'm second in the points, I'm not going to say anything," Gordon says. " That's the competitor in me and probably many other guys and that's to a fault. That's not the way it should be. It is something that most of us, I think, would do. ."
That has to be troubling to NASCAR officials, given the danger that a driver competing while suffering concussion symptoms presents to the rest of the field.
"We are hyper-vigilant, and NASCAR is hyper-vigilant about diagnosis, education, prevention, treatment from A to Z in terms of this problem," says NASCAR neurological consultant Vinay Deschmuk. To get back on the track, Earnhardt will need to be cleared by a NASCAR-approved neurosurgeon.
INSIDE NFL: Form used by league to assess player with head injury
Denial, in the past, was a constant companion to those in high-risk sports. Just rub some dirt on it, athletes were told, or told themselves. Is that what Griffin, the Washington Redskins quarterback, was doing when he shrugged off his concussion this week, suggesting it wasn't that serious an injury?
"I still refuse to say I had a concussion. I had temporary memory loss," Griffin said Wednesday.
Griffin wanted to return to Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons but was prevented from doing so by NFL rules that do not allow a player who has left a game with a concussion to return.
"I had great balance," said Griffin, who practiced Thursday but has not been cleared to play Sunday. "I could remember everything. I pretty much put myself through that concussion test and I knew that I was OK."
Of course, league officials do not permit players to give themselves concussion tests, and even Griffin's case can be seen as progress.
"Believe me, just three years ago I bet RGIII is right back in that game," says former safety John Lynch, who was a TV analyst for the Falcons-Redskins game. "It's embedded in our culture people. People respect it when guys do play through things. That's why it's a big, big dilemna."
Not to mention the confusion that can arise over who is or is not concussed.
Detroit Lions receiver Calvin Johnson admitted Thursday that he suffered a concussion — yet returned to the game — when he took a helmet-to-helmet hit from Minnesota linebacker Chad Greenway on Sept. 30.
" He knocked me good," Johnson said. "You could tell. It was obvious."
Johnson went through a series of tests on the sideline and returned. Lions coach Jim Schwartz said Thursday there was nothing wrong with the concussion test that allowed Johnson to re-enter the game.
"Our evaluation was that he was not concussed," Schwartz said. "He was thoroughly checked. We're very strong in our evaluation."
Johnson hinted in a radio interview earlier Thursday at his desire to keep playing through a concussion when he said: "It's a part of football. You get concussed, you've got to keep on playing."
NFL Players Association medical director Thom Mayer is keeping an eye on all this and talks about a potential culture change in the NFL as "a moving target. I think it's changing, and I think it continues to evolve."
He says his role is to "watch the watchers" — that is, the trainers and medical staff who treat players.
He says this is the feedback he gets from players: "You've got to protect us from ourselves."
Monitoring kids
Stefan Duma, department head of biomedical engineering at Virginia Tech, found in a study last fall that some of the hits absorbed by youth football players equate to those seen in major college football.
Duma, who has been using a sensor system placed in the helmets of Virginia Tech football players for the past decade, used the same system on 7- and 8-year-old tackle football players in Virginia. The sensors record G-force — the gravitational force associated with the acceleration of an object relative to a free-fall.
According to Duma, the typical hit for Virginia Tech players is about 20 Gs, and any hit above 98 Gs is cause to check the player for a concussion. Among the youth players he monitored last fall, the strongest hit was measured at 100 Gs, with six measuring 80 Gs or higher.
A month after Duma's study results were made public, Pop Warner football instituted national changes in its practice guidelines, decreasing contact drills.
At all levels, however, athletes continue to be willing to sacrifice their own wellbeing.
"Athletes will not report stuff, because they don't want to be taken out," says Jim Thornton, president of the National Athletic Trainers Association. "Unfortunately, sometimes the best thing for them is that they be taken out. If not, permanent and serious damage can be done to the brain, and we've seen that in some pro athletes that have tried to hide it so they can continue to make their paycheck."
Or, in Larimore's case, keep their starting job, and keep alive a dream of playing in the NFL.
"At that level, all you think about is how I can get better today at football," he says. "You don't think about, 'Oh, I had a concussion.' There's just not enough time. You're not concerned. You're going to do whatever it takes to play."
Larimore was eventually convinced by his parents and UCLA coaches, including former NFL linebacker Jeff Ulbrich, to think about his long-term future , and he left the game behind. He's not holding his breath waiting for those in his position to follow his path.

Comments on Huntington North RMP will be taken until Dec. 15
The United States Bureau of Reclamation has been involved in a planning process to develop a resource management plan for the Huntington North Reservoir. Chris Sands from Bio-West has been the project team leader. Comments will be taken on the draft resource management plan until close of business on Dec. 15. Alternatives developed are Alternative A which is the no action alternative, Alternative B with an emphasis on conservation and Alternative C with an emphasis on recreation development.
In Alternative B it is recommended that the southwest cove area, be closed. This is the area accessed by Homestead Road, north of Huntington which goes up a steep hill and into a parking area that allows access for swimming and fishing in the southwest cove area. Alternative B would close the designated roads and parking area. Where appropriate the dike access trail through this area would be maintained, but outside access would be restricted. Disturbed areas would be revegetated and erosion control would be provided as necessary.
This Alternative would also recognize the north end of the reservoir as a natural area and would not emphasize recreational activities. Use would be limited to protect wildlife and improve habitat.
In the Alternative C, the southwest cove area would be designated a developed day use recreation area. Proposals would be considered for improving the access road and parking area to meet convenience and safety concerns. Restroom and garbage facilities would be provided. Proposals would be considered for installing fishing and swimming docks. the area would be designated wakeless.
Also under Alternative C, a portion of the state park area would also be designated a developed overnight and day use group recreation area. A designated group camping area with restroom facilities would be provided. State Parks would continue to manage this area for developed recreation and make improvements as necessary. The park's landscape irrigation system would be upgraded to provide for better water conservation throughout the season and to allow for adequate watering during drought conditions. A contract vendor would be allowed to provide water based recreation equipment rentals such as canoes and paddle boats.
In each of the alternatives, the dam and dike area are know as the primary jurisdiction area. The area is set aside for dam operation and maintenance. This doesn't change in any of the alternatives as this is the function for which Huntington North Reservoir was built to supply irrigation water to farmers. The recreational aspect of the reservoir is secondary to its primary purpose and any development or nondevelopment will not affect this function.
The 25 boat limit will continue to be enforced on the reservoir regardless of which alternative is chosen. It was mentioned that by 2006 a statewide capacity survey will be done on all lakes and reservoirs. The 25 boat limit was discussed for Huntington North and the consensus was this was a good number for the reservoir.
Hunting is now allowed on some portions of the study area, but hunting will be phased out due to safety concerns due to the small area involved.
The purpose of developing a resource management plan is in accordance with the reclamation recreation management act of 1992 which authorized the preparation of RMPs to "provide for the development, use, conservation, protection, enhancement, and management of resources on Reclamation lands in a manner that is compatible with the authorized purpose of the reclamation project associated with the Reclamation lands."
The purpose of the RMP is to produce a document that will guide Reclamation, along with local, state, federal and other participating agencies, in managing, allocating, and appropriately using Huntington North Reservoir's land and water resources. The RMP is also important in assisting Reclamation in making decisions regarding the management of recreation resources. Resource management issues and problems existing at Huntington North Reservoir are addressed through various management solutions. The RMP document will include long-term management goals and objectives for the reservoir and its associated lands.
Tim Smith from Utah State Parks and Recreation said he would like to see the southwest cove area stay available for kids to go swim and fish without it becoming a fee area. Smith said that funds are tight and it is important to spend funds for the upkeep and maintenance of existing facilities in satisfactory condition.
Jim Jensen from Reclamation emphasized that the RMP doesn't change any existing contracts they will all still be in place. The RMP covers the need to have a document in place which can be referred to when questions arise concerning management or other issues.
Huntington State Park Manager Dan Richards said he has concerns with Alternative B and a closure of the southwest cove area. He feels it is an area of high value in close proximity to the town where kids can go without paying a fee and it can be reached by bicycle. His concern was in building facilities and charging a fee.
Jensen summarized the consensus of the group which seemed to be to allow continued use of the southwest cove until it becomes a problem or improvements could take place.
The comments received during the public comment period will be answered in the final document and this will become the guidance document for the next 10-15 years.
The Bureau of Reclamation will decide which alternative is adopted and it might be a combination of all the alternatives in the final document.
The final document is expected to be out by January 2005.
Jensen said that as monies become available state parks have been renovated citing Willard Bay, Deer Creek and Rockport as examples.
He said having a plan in place is imperative as these funds become available for projects outlined in such RMP documents.
Comments need to be received by Dec. 15 and can be emailed to email@example.com or mailed to Peter Crookston, Bureau of Reclamation, Provo Area Office, 302 East 1860 South, Provo, UT 84606-7317.

The third installment of the Percy Jackson series and I must say that I enjoyed this book the most so far in the series. Very action packed and so many new characters that made the book very enjoyable. SO… where to begin?It has been just over 3 months since Percy, Annabeth, and Grover have come back from retrieving the golden fleece and saving Camp Half-Blood along with restoring Thalia to her body, when Percy gets a distress call from Grover asking for help. Grover has found two Half-Blood siblings and he needs help getting them safely back to camp from a private military school. Little did they know that the potential Half-Bloods who don't know there parentage yet, Bianca and Nico De Angelo has a monster hiding in the midst of that military school named Mr. Thorn, a hideous manticore who is under the direct supervision of the General(you will find out who that is later). When the crew starts fighting Mr. Thorn and things start getting a little rough, we meet some new characters. Artemis (the goddess of maidens and the Hunt) shows up with her Hunters who are trying their best to help. Just when they thought they had a victory, the monster disappears and takes Annabeth! Even though Percy is desperate to find Annabeth, Artemis convinces him that the monster took her some place he cannot follow everyone returns back to camp, except for Annabeth and Artemis, who has decided to go hunt for a monster by herself, a prophecy is read and 5 must go on a quest to find them both. Problem is Percy is not allowed to go on this quest. Without anyone's knowledge Percy follows the group on their quest.Along the way Percy met a cow serpent that he saved from a net and we later find out a surprising secret and tall about this monster. (I am not going to spoil it for you!)Of course the group finds the General and of course the bad boy Luke where they have to fight to get Annabeth and Artemis and save Mt. Olympus. There were a few tragic deaths in the book and we met some new monsters, skeleton monsters who have a hard time dying. In the end we learn that Bianca and Nico Di Angelo were Hades' kids and the plot now changes and we are left with yet another cliff hanger ending.Can't wait to start reading the next book!

Every fudge recipe I've ever come across has sweetened condensed milk as one of the ingredients. This fudge is easy and delicious and is great with soy milk.
This is another recipe that calls for a candy thermometer. It is very important to use in this dessert so the mixture reaches the right consistency and will stay soft and fudgy even in the refrigerator.
- confectioner's sugar - 1 1/2 cups
- soy milk - 1/3 cup
- margarine - 6 tbsp
- semisweet or bittersweet chocolate - 10 oz (280 gr), broken into pieces
- marshmallow fluff - 3/4 cup
- vanilla extract - 1 tsp
- cocoa - 3 tbsp
Grease one 8x8-inch square tin and set aside.
In a heavy saucepan over a medium flame, combine the confectioners' sugar, milk, and margarine. Mix well and stir constantly until candy thermometer reads 238°F (112°C).
Remove from heat and add the chocolate, marshmallow fluff, vanilla, and cocoa. Stir together until all the chocolate and fluff is melted and distributed throughout the mixture. Pour into prepared pan. Cool and serve. To store, refrigerate in an airtight container.
To serve as pictured, brush the tops of some of your squares with melted chocolate and garnish with chocolate shavings.
Note: I do not have success in doubling this recipe. To stay safe, make just one batch at a time.

Been there twice and both times 💩💩💩
149 Douglas Avenue, Altamonte Springs, FL 32714
Typical menu for a steakhouse. Good food, attentive waiters/waitresses. Separate gf menu in a leather binder with nutritional info. Ask for the gf menu when you walk in, it's not given to you at the table.
26805 Interstate 45 N, Spring, TX 77380
Excellent food and very attentive staff. The gluten free menu has a lot of options. I recommend the Parmesan crusted chicken breast minus the bread crumbs.
1742 Stringtown Rd, Grove City, OH 43123
Was great for my daughter and I who has celiac disease. The server was very knowledgeable and made sure to alert the chef that we needed a gluten-free meal. They had a separate gluten-free menu. Went over and beyond. Very good service very kind and tasted great
2295 Cobbs Ford Rd, Prattville, AL 36066
good choices.no special foods but satisfying.
2601 Gateway Dr, Opelika, AL 36801
Had a great experience at this restaurant. Allergen menu explicitly states they can't guarantee an allergen-free kitchen and there is a potential risk for CC with most of the items on their menu, but I explained that I have CD to our waitress and asked if they could wipe down the grill prior to cooking my steak to keep the risk of CC to a minimum, and she said she'll make sure they cook my steak in an allergen grill tray, so it will never have to come on contact with the actual regular grill at all. She was also very particular about asking what could and couldn't go on my salad and my baked potato, and made sure everything was as safe as possible. Will definitely be eating there again.
1125 Woodruff Rd #1500, Greenville, SC 29607
Love their steaks! Nice gluten free menu.
2217 Harrodsburg Rd, Lexington, KY 40504
Good food, good price points. Love blue cheese dressing on wedge salad and steaks.
505 Tuttle Creek Boulevard, Manhattan, KS 66502
I'm very pleased. Extensive GF menu! Lots of choices. I got the flatiron steak and a sweet potato. I definitely recommend this place, you won't be sorry!
16641 Statesville Rd, Huntersville, NC 28078
Great food and service. GF menu is huge. Kudos
16746 Southwest Fwy, Sugar Land, TX 77479
Wonderful menu! Have eaten here several times. They are very understanding. Great steaks!
5435 Whittlesey Boulevard, Columbus, GA 31909
The gluten free menu had not been updated since 2014. The waitress and host didn't know what gluten was. Half of the gluten free menu was no longer served
6626 Strip Ave NW, North Canton, OH 44720
great food and no reaction from me. I ordered flo's filet and it was perfect. great service!
3805 Phoenix Ave, Fort Smith, AR 72903
Very good menu choices, I loved the burger!
3727 Denmark Drive, Council Bluffs, IA 51501
Great bunless burger and asparagus. Five stars if they had gluten free buns
2628 South Shackleford Road, Little Rock, AR 72205
Limited menu but friendly staff
6620 Harrison Ave, Cincinnati, OH 45247
They have allergy list. But served gluten croutons to my girlfriend. When questioned if gluten free they said they got no gluten. Later called and complained and a manager said the restaurant doesn't have GF croutons. the server lied about the croutons.
501 N Congress Ave, Boynton Beach, FL 33426
They don't have a gluten free menu, they have a page that tells you what doesn't contain gluten and how to order an item so it doesn't contain gluten. i went there yesterday and was glutened. I had a crouton- less ceasar salad, flo's filet and loaded baked potato. I requested the salad to be tossed separately, but dont think it was since I am so sick currently.
5500 N 9th Ave, Pensacola, FL 32504
Great steaks and other options. No issue eating here.
3190 Fairlane Blvd, Allen Park, MI 48101
Great options for gf!
9950 E Independence Blvd, Matthews, NC 28105
Great gluten free menu! Just ask
5552 St.Louis Mills Blvd, Hazelwood, MO 63042
I come here and order shrimp, rice, broccoli, steak, burgers no bun or salads without croutons. They are very accommodating and have a Nutrition & Allergen List.
3400 Princess Anne Road, Virginia Beach, VA 23456
For the salad the waitress asked if I want crotons. When I asked if she knows what is gluten? she answered anything without bread.
1286 Rte 300, Newburgh, NY 12550
We were disappointed with the GF menu. When we asked our waiter about a GF meal he said they didn't have GF items. We picked this restaurant from the reviews on this site.
20 Wilson Ave, Hanover, PA 17331
Very good. Had a wonderful gluten free menu. Well done!
2470 N Columbia St, Milledgeville, GA 31061
They have a gluten free menu, but I didn't see it. I just had a steak and steamed broccoli (and a Moscow mule). I didn't get sick.
102 S Cox Creek Pkwy, Florence, AL 35630
I chose from the gluten free menu and had a bad reaction to the gluten in my food. The worst case of gluten poisoning I have had in a long time.
1510 Eglin St, Rapid City, SD 57701
They had a gf menu and our waitress went above and beyond to ensure that what I chose was gf. Very impressed.
106 Travel Center Boulevard, Dublin, GA 31021
On our trip we were getting so hungry, and looking for something gluten free. We stopped at this Longhorn. As soon as we asked about gluten free, they gave us a very comprehensive list of allergens, and worked to make sure our food was gluten free and well cooked. When we left the manager gave us our own copy of the allergen lists for future stops at other locations.
1405 Maple Tree Pl, Williston, VT 05495
I've eaten here a dozen or more times without getting glutened. It's one of my (few) go-to restaurants. I've also successfully eaten at other LongHorn locations.
505 Tuttle Creek Boulevard, Manhattan, KS 66502
They have a gluten free menu. Good selection of steak and seafood. You can get ribs but not BBQ sauce. I'm not from Kansas so I don't understand why there's gluten added to the BBQ sauces around here. It's not just Longhorn. I've had no issues in Colorado or on the west coast. I got tomato soup. First time it wasn't a tomato soup I made at home. It was creamy and a bit of tang. For dinner I had grilled shrimp. I got a dozen, which was a good amount. The shrimp had a bit of a kick. I'd get them again. With soup, salad, and potato I was stuffed. My wife got a giant plate of fried calamari. She's not celiac. It's nice to have places we can occasionally go to together.
17100 Chesterfield Airport Rd, Chesterfield, MO 63005
Go often and have never had a problem, great food and sercice.
1510 Eglin St, Rapid City, SD 57701
Good gluten free menu and explains how to make menu items gluten free. They do bring a warm loaf of bread out as you are seated. :(. It looked amazing.
1679 PA-228, Cranberry Twp, PA 16066
I didn't even tell the server I was celiac, just ordered steak, baked potato and salad with no croutons. service was fast even though they were busy and I did not get sick.
1420 Towne Lake Pkwy, Woodstock, GA 30189
This place is amazing! They cooked the meal to my satisfaction and it was delicious. I can't wait to go back.
8212 Citrus Park Dr, Tampa, FL 33625
I have been to this location twice and have been extremely impressed with both the food and service both times. When I asked about a seasonal item that wasn't on the allergen list the manager looked into every item. She was extremely knowledgeable about celiac disease and made sure to even check the seasoning used on the meat. I will definitely return and recommend to others.
800 U.S. 44, Raynham, MA 02767
Very limited, hard to read menu. My children ordered the grilled chicken, labeled gluten free, and the severs sent out two orders of fried chicken with gluten. Both my children had reactions to their gluten allergy after dining there.
1077 North Bridge Street, Chillicothe, OH 45601
I was very nervous going here but we're traveling on the road. We had a wonderful waitress who brought me the allergen menu and told me the asst mgr was the chef tonight and she would be very careful. I ordered a salad, no croutons, tossed in a clean bowl, with a steak and loaded baked potato. I am extremely sensitive and was fine! Food was delicious!
5744 Buckeystown Pike, Frederick, MD 21704
I have had good luck with this restaurant. The food is very good and the staff helpful when I've had questions.
2671 James St, Coralville, IA 52241
Server was knowledgeable and helpful. She said they have procedures in place to help prevent cross contamination. Great food and atmosphere.
605 Hogan Rd, Bangor, ME 04401
The manager and staff were very well educated on food allergies. They also have a dedicated fryer.
701 E Expy 83, Weslaco, TX 78596
Ordered a salad and a steak from the GF menu. Both were good and I did not get glutenned.
11644 Parkside Dr, Farragut, TN 37934
staff is knowledge. good. place to eat
6600 Menaul Blvd NE #700, Albuquerque, NM 87110
The service was awful. The server rolled her eyes at me when I told her I was Celiac and needed to stay GF. She threw my salad down on the table. She didn't give us our appetizer. She was absurdly rude and disrespectful to me. She forgot half of my husbands order. We spoke to the manager who offered to take off the appetizer bill and stated he'd speak to her about the way she treated us. The server continued to stomp around the dining room and scoff at us. It's the worst service I've ever had at any restaurant in my entire life and I ended up sick afterwards. I was so disappointed because the steaks are delicious. I do not recommend this place to anyone. The service is unfortunately terrible.
20 Wilson Ave, Hanover, PA 17331
Although the food was ok and appeared prepared correctly, the waitress was clueless and arrogant to say the least. Would not return.
8010 Trail Blvd, Naples, FL 34108
Sat at the bar, very helpful. Great choices. Overall wonderful experience. Amazing how friendly people are here.
1000 Prime Outlets Blvd, Hagerstown, MD 21740
Due to the rather large selection on the gluten-sensitive menu, we always find a LongHorn Steakhouse when traveling. My daughter, who has celiac disease, has always had good experiences with this chain. However, within two hours after a recent visit to LongHorn in Hagerstown, MD (while traveling), my daughter became ill with symptoms of gluten contamination. I filled out LongHorn's online survey sharing this information, and provided my contact information. It has been five days and I still have not been contacted by any representatives of the company or management from that location.
50 International Drive South, Flanders, NJ 07836
The have an allergy list that tells you what is gluten free but even then I got really sick not even a half hour later. It was probably from cross contamination.
1212 E North Ave, Belton, MO 64012
I'm new to gluten free and searched to find a place near where I was at the time. Ended up choosing Longhorn. Must have been my lucky day. My waitress happened to be allergic to gluten as well. She advised me and I didn't have any issues. Ask for the gluten free menu. It is separate from the regular one.
4300 Franklin Ave, Waco, TX 76710
I had an excellent gluten-free meal here with great service! They do have a gluten-free menu now, which was very helpful. The steak, salad, and potatoes were all amazing.

Cute but poorly made
"I bought this shoes for winter because they're cute, not bulky, and have good tread. Unfortunately after only wearing them 3 times the heals came unglued from each shoe. I thought maybe it was just a faulty pair and did an exchange. Well after wearing the new pair 5 times both heels had come unglued again, and the left shoes heal blew out basically. So I had to return them for a refund. I'd have given them a five star rating if they had been constructed well. :("

Great piece for the price
"This little clutch was a great accessory for my outfit, especially for the price. My only complaint is that a few sequins started to fall off from just one use's wear and tear. If you have reward dollars that you can use, this is for sure worth it. Might not pay full price though."

I've been sewing for two years and am now at the stage where I make most of my own clothes. I love vintage style, vintage fabric and, most importantly, vintage sewing patterns! I'm influenced by most styles from the late 1930's to the early 1960's but if I had to choose the decade that most captures my imagination, it would have to be the 1940's. Looking forward to sharing more of my finished garments with you. x

Maybe not the most dignified of nicknames, but the developers were happy to see their building becoming a part of the city's slang. See full article.

Ben Scrivens and the Leafs shut out the Sens, and that's great, but I'm just really happy with the headline, you guys. Benjamin Shuttin'. Awesome, right? RIGHT?! Ah, just watch.

I don't know. There's a fine line between depth and logjam. Jake Gardiner not playing with the Leafs if he is, indeed, healthy should bother every Leafs fan. He was great last year and unless they're playing it safe with his head injury, because of what happened with Reimer last year, or he's on the trading block, there should be absolutely no reason he's not getting playing time with the NHL club.
In terms of specific pairings, I think Gunnarsson-Phaneuf should make a return and I'd love to see Gardiner-Phaneuf at least tried out. Franson-Fraser is pretty solid. Liles-Gunnarsson/Gardiner would also be decent. I like Holzer and Kostka, but they are depth players, not starters. It's fine that they're in the lineup now, but Phaneuf, Franson, Liles, Gardiner, and Gunnarsson should have priority, with the 6th guy being the best other Dman so far - at the moment, Fraser.
Come on. Phaneuf is at best a depth defender on good team. And on the leafs where we need to ice Kostka, well Phaneuf is a top pairing dman.
