We got a brief heavy downpoar last night. Hope that water got to the places it needs to help slaughter those flames (aka plant butchers).
I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
They're baaaack! (Unfortunately).
Santa Ana winds + SoCal dryness = flambé time. I'm most concern about the fire around the Porter Ranch area as we have SSGers living close by, as well as I have family not too far away, too. I used to live in the northern Glendale/La Crescenta area and I see it's having problems there.
Yesterday my city and county fire departments have already sent strike crews south to help out with the mess (as usual).
Be careful, everyone!
¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!
Stupid jerk psychos!
I vote for an open season on them!
¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!
Woke up this morning (sounds like the opening of every blues song), and it felt like I was in a bar, prior to CA's no indoor smoking laws. It's slightly better now, but still thick. Last night, I was a mile from the I-10 freeway and could see the Yorba Linda/Anaheim Hills flames, but oddly when I went further north and higher in elevation, thinking I'd have a better vantage point, could see nothing.
I'm surrounded, but thankfully they're not too close: Sylmar to the NW, Corona to the SE, Yorba Linda to the SW. Cajon Pass region has been mercifully saved to the NE. : pray:
Saw a moron light up his cig in his car (bad enough), then do the stick-it-out-the-window-and-hold-it-on-my-car-door-'cause-I'm-so-cool thing. Never have I wanted a squirt gun so badly. Can't you see/smell what's going on around you, dude?
I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
The air is reminiscent of waking up at a campground, the remnants of last night's campfire still lingering.
I was already having a bout with asthma and then a cold when the fires kicked up, I went outside and nearly passed out, it was really that bad.
Darth Vader is becoming the Mickey Mouse of Star Wars.
Kylo Ren - came from Space Brooklyn, although he moved to Space Williamsburg before it was trendy.
The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.
Santa Barbara is now burning literally and figuratively. Million dollar homes going up in smoke in 100º weather.
With the budget also hurting, it will be interesting to see what kind of resources will be available to suppress this fire.
¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!
Not only is Santa Barbara burning, but now it's shaking. A 4.2 magnitude earthquake near Ojai today........
¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!

GigapanMagazine.org vol 1 issue 3
SculpturWorx Studio in Houston, Texas is one of our favorite places to take photographs. As soon as we co-purchased a beta version Gigapan we started planning a SculptrWorx panorama.
The parking lot of the studio is full of amazing concrete sculptures. Each of the 20-foot tall Presidents heads weighs 3½-tons. The Beatles sculptures in the background are nearly 40 feet high and weighing close to 5 tons each.
The creator of these amazing sculptures is 82-year-old artist David Adickes, David is Houston's unofficial "artist in residence." His sculpture portfolio includes a 67-feet tall Sam Houston statue near Huntsville, "The Virtuoso" a 36-foot concrete sculpture of a cello player, and statue of an ex-girlfriend, who used to be a Playboy model.
Adickes is also an excellent musician and writer. He made his living primarily through painting until 10 years ago. His oils and sculptures are displayed in ten major art museums across America and in many countries, as well as private collections.

This is great. I had planned to visit the studio and shoot as a gigapan but missed the date when they shipped out the sculptures. Fantastic work! I did manage to capture Adickes' other Houston-based Presidential installation: www.gigapan.org/gigapans/29683/

5 Easy Fixes To Bring Your Blog Back To Life
Is your blog on life support? Here are 5 easy blogging fixes with examples and charts to breathe life into your blog.
What is Branding?
Brands are short hand marketing messages with identifiable representation that create emotional bonds with consumers through a combination of tangible and intangible factors. In a world where every individual is also a media entity, your consumers and their perception of your brand own it (as it always was). Based on the thirty definitions of branding, here are the twelve main attributes of a brand.

30 Branding Definitions
Brands have a wide range of uses for businesses, products and individuals in today's dynamic marketing landscape where publishing and message distribution are no longer limited to media entities. Through the use of social media platforms, every consumer is a publisher and has his own brand to promote. Each brand is competing for time and attention—today's scarce resources—to break though the message clutter in order to build relationships with their target audience(s). By itself, a brand isn't a marketing strategy. In their own words, here are thirty (30) branding definitions from marketers and visionary leaders (aka the original Mad Men) to help you understand what branding entails.

UTI-Stat with Proantinox is a natural urinary tract cleansing complex. UTI-Stat contains a proprietary blend of concentrated Cranberry Proanthocyanidins, Ascorbic Acid, D-Mannose, FOS and Bromelain.
Each one ounce (30 ml) serving of UTI-Stat with Proantinox provides as much cranberry proanthocyanidins as approximately five 450 mg cranberry tablets (equivalent to 16 eight oz glasses of cranberry juice cocktail). UTI-Stat is lactose and gluten free.
Nutrition Information: Click on the product label image above for detailed information.
Product Features:
UTI-Stat's unique blend inhibits adhesion of infection causing E-coli bacteria to urinary tract walls, increase urinary acidity to create a less tolerable environment for E. Coli, and stimulate the growth of probiotic bacteria in the small and large intestines.
UTI-Stat has been shown effective in reducing symptomatic UTIs, including urgency and frequency of urination, when used in conjunction with hydration and a hygiene program. UTI-Stat helps to support urinary tract health and prevent recurrence of infection.
Contains: PROANTINOX (Cranberry Concentrate [4:1], Ascorbic Acid, D-Mannose, FOS [Inulin], and Bromelain), Filtered Water, Glycerin, Acesulfame-K, Sucralose, Natural Color, Phosphoric Acid, Sodium Benzoate, and Potassium Sorbate. Lactose and Gluten Free.
Directions: Take two tablesppons (one oz) up to two times a day as needed. (Can also be mixed with any hot or cold beverages.)
Precautions: UTI-Stat is a medical food. Consult your health care professional on use of this product.
Note: Not a substitute for antibiotics.
Warning: Not be used with Warfarin therapy.
Suggested Indications: Helps support urinary tract health. Aids in reducing symptomatic UTIs including urgency and frequency of urination when used in conjunction with a hydration and hygiene program.
Use orally or with tube feeding.
Store and serve at room temperature. Refrigeration not necessary.
Frequently Asked Questions:
What is Proantinox?
Proantinox� is a proprietary blend of concentrated cranberry proanthocyanidins, ascorbic acid, D-Mannose, FOS and Bromelain . It helps inhibit adhesion of infection causing E-coli bacteria to urinary tract walls, reduce urinary ph levels to inhibit the growth of E. Coli, and stimulate the growth of probiotic bacteria in the small and large intestines.
How much cranberry is in UTI-Stat?
One serving ( 1oz or 30ml) provides about the same amount of cranberry proanthocyanidins (PAC) as in one gallon of cranberry juice cocktail, but without the calories and acidity common to juice cocktails, as well as other important ingredients (FOS, D-Mannose, ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) and Bromelain).
What are the main ingredients in UTI-Stat?
Cranberry Concentrate, Ascorbic Acid, D-Mannose, FOS [Inulin], and Bromelain.
What are PAC�s?
PACs are proanthocyanidins, nutrients found in many plants, but only cranberry alpha proanthocyanidins provide strong bacterial anti-adhesion properties. UTI-Stat contains cranberry alpha-proanthocyanidins.
Is UTI-Stat suitable for diabetics?
Unlike cranberry juice, the minimal amount of low-glycemic sugar(from D-Mannose)in UTI-Stat is absorbed 8 times more slowly than ordinary sugar.
How does UTI-Stat compare to cranberry capsules/tablets?
Cranberry tablets/capsules do not typically include FOS, D-Mannose, ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), and Bromelain, each of which contribute to the efficacy of UTI-Stat. Cranberry tablets/capsules are typically recommended up to 6 tablets daily. One serving of UTI-Stat contains as much cranberry concentrate as approximately five 450mg tablets/capsules, as well as other important ingredients (FOS, D-Mannose, ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) and Bromelain).
How many servings of UTI-Stat should I give per day?
One serving (1oz or 30ml) is a good preventative measure. Two servings daily are recommended when symptoms are present.
How long should I use UTI-Stat?
Daily to prevent recurrent infections.
How many UTI-Stat servings will I need to take vs. tablets or capsules?
One serving per day provides as much cranberry concentrate as approximately five 450mg tablets or capsules, as well as other important ingredients (FOS, D-Mannose, ascorbic acid (Vitamin C), Bromelain).
How will this cure my UTI?
UTI-Stat is not a cure or a substitute for antibiotics. Rather, it helps protect against urinary tract infections and helps alleviate symptoms by inhibiting the adhesion of E-Coli bacteria to the urinary tract walls.
Can I give UTI-Stat to residents with UTI�s and stop antibiotics?
UTI-Stat is not a cure or a substitute for antibiotics. Rather, it helps protect against urinary tract infections and helps alleviate symptoms by inhibiting the adhesion of E-Coli bacteria to the urinary tract walls.

What is the shelf life of UTI-Stat?
Two years.
Can I mix UTI-Stat in food?
It is best mixed with hot or cold beverages.
Can UTI-Stat be used for tube feeding and if so, does it need to be mixed with water?
UTI-Stat can be used for tube feeding and does not need to be mixed with water.

The label states: Note: Not a substitute for antibiotics. Caution: May increase the effects of Warfarin therapy - consult physician.
Is UTI-Stat considered a nutritional supplement or a drug?
UTI-Stat is considered a Medical Food.
Is UTI-Stat cost effective?
It is estimated that UTIs from all settings may cost the US economy $1.6 billion annually. The use of antibiotics plus the indirect costs of nursing care, doctor visits, or additional treatment all contribute to the cost. Additionally, frequent use of antibiotics can contribute to the increase in more resistant strains of bacteria. Mantaining urinary tract health and reducing the incidence of UTIs can lead to substantial health care cost reductions.

Title: Rapalje
Description: To all Rapeljes, Rapaljes, Raplees, etc. and all descendants therefrom (regardless of the spelling of the name): I am creating a multi-media artwork for the Brooklyn Museum of Art, based on my ancestral relation to Joris and Catalyntje's daughter, Sarah and her first husband Hans Hansen Bergen. The exhibition will open in late February. It will be part of a 4-woman show called "Playing House" in which each artist creates a different "intervention" into one or more of the Museum's period rooms. I chose the two Schenck Houses because they are of Long Island Dutch origin, and I am going to insert, among other things, objects and images of my Rapalje ancestry--mine and a million other people! Including yours, I hope. Please send scanned photographs (tiffs or good jpegs) of your families and ancestors, and information describing your line of descent to my email@example.com. By the way you can check me out at my Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/mary.lucier. I look forward to seeing your responses and your faces. Many thanks, Mary Lucier New York

The Best of 2012 – Part 2
It is always interesting to look back on the year in books, and see what stands out as having been noteworthy. This year my choices were easy to make – my top 5 jumped out at me from the list. Here they are, in no particular order.
Way back in January of 2012, I wrote a blog about this book, about how much I enjoyed it. The Disenchantments revolves around one turquoise VW bus, three teenage girl band members, one teen boy best friend, and a week-long tour, and it all amounts to… one hell of a story. Reminiscent of another time – late sixties, early seventies perhaps – possibly due to the music the characters love, possibly due to their alternative parents, possibly due to the very nature of the funky towns they stop in. I loved this book for the journey, the forks in the road, the music, art and the extraordinary friendships.
The Edumacation of Jay Baker was a really pleasant surprise. This book was so refreshing and funny, and I laughed out loud numerous times. Jay is a fantastic main character–he is sarcastic, smart, and full of incredibly spot-on one-liners. The humor in this book is extremely intelligent, the story a wild ride, and the pop culture references are epic. I love a stand-out character, and Jay was definitely that. One of his teachers is also an exceptional character, and the verbal sparring that takes place between the two is fantastic.
Every Day was fascinating and thought provoking and I even chose it for my book club to read in October. Main character "A" (not specified female nor male) is without his own life, identity, and body. He experiences the lives and feelings of others, but every day is different. There are valuable insights and perspectives to be gained from experiencing the innermost thoughts and feelings of very diverse people. This is a truly unique and extremely well-written concept story, leaving the reader with much to discuss or ponder. As usual, David Levithan does not disappoint.
Young adult books are usually the ones that end up being my favorites, but this little middle grade gem warmed my heart and I could not leave it off this list. Main character Mo LoBeau makes Three Times Lucky the memorable story that it is. She is spunky, honest, resourceful, courageous, and endearing. An excellent role model, Mo is utterly unafraid to speak her mind, a fierce protector of her loved ones and a strong willed proponent of justice. This is a murder mystery, and a suspenseful read as well as a funny and charming one. Teachers, take note, this is a great classroom read aloud choice.
I needed tissues for this one – The Story of Us definitely caused me to shed a tear or two. There is so much to this story: family drama, friendship issues, a love story, a break up, and all of the feelings of a teen girl with big decisions to make in the summer after high school graduation. Family and change are at the heart of this well-written, witty and heartwarming story. Cricket is another unforgettable character, and this was my favorite summer beach read.
Here's to the great reads of 2012, and I look forward to what 2013 has to offer! Happy New Year!

ABERDEEN – A 78-year-old Sidon man faces formal federal charges Dec. 3 on 30 north Mississippi hunting violations.
Pass Taylor Jr. is accused by the U.S. Attorney's Office of baiting dove fields, guiding hunt tours into wildlife refuges, exceeding game limits and not reporting game kills.
If convicted on all 30 misdemeanor counts, he faces up to 211⁄2 years in prison and $1.52 million in fines.
A 25-page information against Taylor claims that from September 2010 through December 2011, he guided undercover conservation officers on various commercial hunts for doves, ducks and other migratory waterfowl.
An information is a formal charge that comes from the U.S. Attorney's Office, not a federal grand jury.
On at least 10 occasions, the charge claims, Taylor guided a hunter into the Matthews Brake National Wildlife Refuge Waterfowl Sanctuary in Leflore County.
Other accusations include three counts of baiting fields, two counts of guiding hunters to baited fields, three counts of taking excess bag limits, two counts of guiding and taking excess limits, five counts of not reporting bird kills, seven counts of commercial guiding, three counts of failing to report kills, one count of trespass and one more of aiding trespass into the game refuge.
Taylor is set for arraignment before Magistrate David A. Sanders in U.S. District Court in Aberdeen.

YAZOO CITY – David Chandler, former Panola County administrator, began serving a 14-month prison sentence April 22.
Attorneys for Chandler recently asked for more time to appeal his 2011
guilty plea in schemes to embezzle from and defraud the county.
They urged the federal court to allow his appeal, even though it was two weeks past the deadline.
They said Chandler had been so depressed by his situation that he could not remember whether he'd been advised of his right to appeal.
U.S. District Judge Sharion Aycock also sentenced him to restitution of $33,564, a $40,000 fine and 200 days of community service in Panola County.

Hi Ky and Air leak. I agree with your comments completely, I am just trying to get the best bang for the buck. If you review my previous post in this thread, you will see the yardage of my kills (14-26 yards) and that proves your point.
I must admit that I have gotten a little caught up in the shooting paper thing and I could see myself doing more of it in the off-season. I am not trying to create a 60 yard gun, just a relaible 40 yard performer and I find the dynamics of shooting interesting (hunter geek I guess).
That being said, I just got back from my opening week of our hunt which was highlighted by 30 mph winds, rain and snow. The only tom I saw was about 300 yards out and I don't know of any gun/tube combo that would have helped there (howitzer maybe?)
Thanks for the input.

A couple months ago the CEO from Xara contacted me about open sourcing Xara X (now called Xara Xtreme), and figuring out ways of working more closely with the Inkscape community. He made the case that it was better to collaborate than to compete. While I had some concerns, he sold me on the idea and so I lent him what advice I could.
Thus, I was quite thrilled to see Xara's announcement. The folks in Inkscape were a bit uncertain about the whole thing, so I encouraged the CEO, Charles Moir, to join the Inkscape list and discuss things directly with folks. It's been great the last few days seeing the discussions and ideas flow. It's exciting seeing things come together, people getting onto the same page, and concensus developing about development strategies.
I think the next year or two is going to be extremely exciting from a development point of view. This is going to be a fun trip to be part of!
MythTV - Success!
As Kees has blogged, we've both got our MythTV setups up and running.
Kees actually beat me to it by a long shot because first, he kicks ass, and second, because he was installing onto grungy old hardware while I was installing onto shiny new hardware that KnoppMyth just looks at and goes, "whadafah?"
So after 20 hours invested into KnoppMyth, I canned it and started over with Gentoo. Ahhh, gentoo. I was able to get all the drivers, services, and whatnot installed in a matter of a few hours. Finally finished things up today, scheduled some recordings, and life is good. :-)
I haven't spent as much time on the front end aspects like the remote and the beeboop noises and such, but that's only because my near term ambitions are a bit different - this is going to just be a backend system. I plan on spending a few weeks just sort of experimenting.
I do have to say that MythTV is not for the faint of heart; it's been a pretty good exercise of my Linux skills, especially when using newish hardware. I think if someone was to really polish up the installation experience it would open this to much bigger audience.
I'm really glad I got Kees so gung ho on it; he's figuring out ALL SORTS of nifty tricks, as I knew he would! ;-)
Finally, this is likely to be my last post to Advogato, as I am starting to switch to Bloxsom. I've enjoyed being part of Advogato, but have sort of outgrown it; mainly I want more features like commenting. I also love how blosxom allows posting to be done through the commandline; finally I can do all my blogging in my favorite text editor. :-)
Anyway, in case anyone has actually enjoyed my rambling posts, you can add me to your aggregators at the following feed: http://www.bryceharrington.org/blosxom.cgi/index.rss

The Socialist Republic of Vietnam is one of the few remaining Communist states in the world, although the Government has in recent times made a commitment to a more liberal economic strategy. 1858 invasion by colonial France ended in 1954, but was swiftly followed by civil war between North and South, with US providing economic and military aid to the South. US withdrawal, reunification and peace occurred in the mid-1970s, with economic growth and industrial development gaining momentum in the 1980s.
Life for a Child support
Commenced support: 2008
Between 2008-2011, LFAC provided intermittent support due to infrequent communications.
In 2011, thanks to Dr Kate Armstrong at CLAN (Caring & Living As Neighbours) Inc., LFAC was able to establish communications with and sign a Memorandum of Understanding with Children's Hospital 2 (CH2) in Ho Chi Minh City. CH2 cares for 52 children with type 1 diabetes 1-15 years old - 24 live in Ho Chi Minh City, 28 in the countryside. Insulin is included in health insurance, so patients only pay 20%. As with many countries, strips are very expensive and must be wholly paid for by patients. LFAC supports CH2 with:
- DCA Vantage machine – testing HbA1c quarterly and microalbuminuria annually - supplied by local Vietnamese distributor
- Betachek strips - each child receiving 3 bottles of strips every 2 months
- Travel costs of most needy patients to monthly clinic: The most distant province (among CH2 young patients) is Bac Lieu – 194 kms away. The cost of a return bus ticket from Bac Lieu to HCM city is 400.000 VND/ $20US. As a child cannot travel unaccompanied, an adult family member must also travel, increasing the cost to $40US/month. Yearly travel costs for one family can equal $480 US, a significant amount when the average monthly wage in Vietnam is approximately 824,000 VND/month (US $55)[Vietnam Household Living Standards Survey (VHLSS) 2004]

Ok guys: You were all so good at guessing what my pile of fabric would become and I "fold" like a house of cards when begged for something so here is the incomplete DRESDEN PLATE block that I've been working on the past few dreary, rainy days. There is still LOTS of work to do on this quilt but some of the blocks are starting to come together. It takes 4 blocks with 6 blades each to make one block. So far I have 4 complete blocks but not sewn together, yet. The green between each of the 4 blade pieces IS NOT what I'm going to use in the finished quilt. I'm going to find a lighter green similar in color to the center green blade in each of the block segments. I just don't have the fabric yet.
Thanks to all who joined in on the guessing game. It was fun to see what everyone was thinking when looking at the fabric pile. You are all so creative. This has been fun...thank you.
Dresden Plate Block (Not put together) that all of you guessed about what the fabric would become
2 more of the quarter section blocks ready to go in the big block. I have 12 quarter block segments or 4 blocks ready to go....I need a total of 12 blocks, each 20 1/2 inches square

Those of us who watched Nickelodeon in the early days around 1980 may remember this show. Apparently, it was released on DVD in the UK a couple of months ago. The good news is that it is encoded region 0, so it can play anywhere, the downside is you cannot order it on amazon.com. It is only available on amazon.co.uk (or whatever it is).
Does anybody remember this show and know of a US retailer?

[...] Kerley has been rotating from the slot, his natural position, back to the outside to pick up some of Holmes' routes. He has gone from having an "ocean of room," a descriptor Sparano uses to paint a picture of the slot position, to having no margin for error.It's not been optimal, but Kerley truly is making the best of the opportunity. Santonio's inability to demand coverages is making it slightly more difficult for Kerley, but Kerley is still playing well ...even if he didn't have a great statistical game in the team's last outing. Defenses are beginning to key on Kerley, especially after his game against the Patriots. Even so, the Jets are going to need to see the continued boost in place from guys like Schilens and Gates to help the squad. The better the unit can play as a whole, the easier it will be for the passing game to get on track.
Lal said that Holmes was the best natural route-runner among the receivers, the closest he had to the "clinic" tapes he hoped to develop, which could have helped motivate Kerley to make a change.
"He's been really good that way and we've been able to move him around in a lot of spots, so that's been helpful," Sparano said. "I really think Jeremy, with the more playing time he gets, he's obviously getting a lot better at what he's doing. I think there's a big difference because playing inside and then playing outside during the course of the game, there really is a big difference."
Kerley has watched tape on Jerry Rice, another smaller wide receiver who played the outside, and has kept in touch with Holmes throughout the rehabbing process for advice
There is no doubt who the biggest winner was in the 2017 draft for the Jets. No one had a better three days than Christian Hackenberg.
Once thought to be the Jets possible Quarterback of the Future, he apparently still is after the Jets avoided the Quarterback Class of 2017 with all of their nine draft picks over the three days of the NFL draft. That wasn't a guarantee, either. They heavily scouted the top ones, and all of them except for North Carolina's Mitch Trubisky were available when they made the sixth overall pick.

There has long been a conventional wisdom in the NFL that safeties aren't usually worth high draft picks. There are exceptions, of course, but good ones can often be developed later. And there are more premium positions like quarterback, receiver, cornerback and defensive end.
Still, the value was so high on LSU safety Jamal Adams that he was a great pick for the Jets when he fell to No. 6.
But taking another one near the top of the second round?
The NFL draft may be over, but the search for rookies is still ongoing, with teams scrambling to sign undrafted free agents to fill out their roster. The Jets have 84 players on their roster including their nine new draft picks. So, without releasing anybody else, they have room to sign six UDFAs.
Below is a running list of UDFAs who have reportedly signed with the Jets, plus some players who have been invited to their rookie mini-camp (May 5-7) for a tryout. The list has been compiled from NFL sources, published reports, and sometimes straight from the players themselves.
Check back often, as this list will be updated constantly over the next few days. It can also change quickly as players and teams back out of agreements. Nothing is official until a player actually signs on the dotted line:
Minutes after the 2017 NFL Draft ended, the Jets got bad news about their second-round pick from 2015.
Wide receiver Devin Smith will miss the 2017 season with a torn ACL, according to general manager Mike Maccagnan. Smith, who missed most of last season and has only played three NFL games, sustained the injury in the first team workout of the year.

The Jets took LSU safety Jamal Adams in the first round Thursday. Pryor is going into his fifth year with the Jets, who might not pick up his option at the end of the season, which would make him a free agent next March.

The first round of the Draft couldn't have worked out much better for the Jets. A player atop their board, whom they didn't think they'd get, ended up falling right into their lap. And for the second time in three years, they stood pat at No. 6 and ended up with a Top 3 player.
Could they have a similar stroke of luck in the second round?
It's entirely possible with the Jets slated to pick seventh when Day 2 of the draft resumes on Friday night. They will have three picks over two rounds -- 39th overall in Round 2, and 70th and 107th overall in Round 3 (the latter is a comp pick and the final pick of the night). And there are a whole bunch of players still available that many considered first-round talents...
While most of the attention this weekend will be on the top picks, it's those teams that can find some diamonds in the rough who end up having the most productive draft classes. Every team, even the Jets, has seen success with late-round picks and undrafted free agents, and the Jets will be hoping some of this weekend's less-heralded selections will emulate some of those lightning-in-a-bottle type successes from the past.
With that in mind, let's count down my choices for the top draft steals in Jets history...
5. Brandon Moore, OG, Illinois, 2002 (Undrafted)
Having been drafted as a defensive tackle, "Meat" spent over a decade with the Jets, winning the starting right guard spot in 2004 and making it his own, as he ascended to Pro Bowl status by 2011. Moore, who was selected to announce one of the Jets' picks on Friday, sneaks into the top-five ahead of more recent undrafted pick-ups Mike DeVito and Damon Harrison, because he lasted a lot longer with the team than they did.
The Jets bolstered their secondary by picking LSU safety Jamal Adams with the No. 6 pick in the NFL Draft on Thursday, and the team is high on Adams' potential.
"He is an outstanding player, obviously. Smart, fast, tough, physical, he's an alpha, he's good on and off the field," Bowles said. "He checked all the boxes for us and really, we think we got a real good football player. We had him rated high."
Adams, a 6-foot, 214-pound defensive back, was one of the highest-rated players in the draft -- one whom the Jets originally didn't think would be there at 6, according to ESPN's Jenna Laine.

When a team is picking in the Top 10, it should be a lot easier to predict who they're going to take than it has been for the Jets at No. 6 this year. There usually aren't a lot of variables. In this draft, though, there are a ton.
The big one, of course, is the Quarterback Question: Will the Jets pick one or pass? There's also the question of whether they'll make the pick at all (word is that GM Mike Maccagnan is listening to offers to trade down). And if they stay put, it's also not completely clear which players will go in the Top 5.
Ralph Vacchiano | Facebook | Twitter | Archive
Many people around the NFL consider this to be one of the hardest first rounds to project in years. That's at least partly due to the uncertainty about where the quarterbacks will go, but also because of deep top tier of talent (perhaps 10 or 11 picks deep) and because many scouts don't see much of a difference between players ranked in the 10-15 range and those they rank down near 25-32.
After consulting with many NFL sources and experts (and my own imagination), here is my final answer on the first round: My SNY Mock Draft 3.0. I feel pretty good that the Cleveland Browns will indeed make the first overall selection. Other than that … no guarantees and I reserve the right to change my mind:
The Jets waived unning back Brandon Burks, wide receiver Darius Jennings, long snapper Josh Latham, linebacker Jeff Luc and defensive lineman Julien Obioha on Wednesday, ESPN.com's Richi Cimini reports.

One last look at the top players on the board for the Jets as they prepare to make the sixth overall pick on April 27:
1.CB Marshon Lattimore, Ohio State - He has been in the No. 1 spot on this board almost from the beginning because of his skill and because he seems likely to be there at 6. The Chicago Bears seem to like him at 3 and there's a chance the Tennessee Titans will take him at 5, but both teams seem to have other priorities. If he gets through to the Jets, it will be hard to pass up this 6-foot, 193-pounder who could give them the shut-down cornerback they haven't had since Darrelle Revis was still Darrelle Revis. (Last report: 1)...

So with eight days to go until the draft, here's my SNY Mock Draft, version 2.0. The information comes from NFL sources, draft experts, and in some cases my own mind:
1. Cleveland Browns - Myles Garrett, DE, Texas A&M

After initially being "open for business" with the sixth pick of the draft and admitting a desire to trade down, Mike Maccagnan seemed to close up shop on Monday. Now the Jets GM says "We feel pretty good at 6 right now."
And they should, because if the sudden frenzy over the quarterbacks in this draft is more than just a smokescreen, the Jets will end up with a better player at 6 than they previously believed.
For the longest time it didn't look like any quarterback would go in the first five picks of the NFL draft. The scouting world was down on all of the top quarterbacks in the draft and few believed any were worthy of even a Top 10 pick. The idea that any of them could end up as the top pick seemed crazy -- as crazy as the idea that two could go in the Top 10...
Ralph Vacchiano | Facebook | Twitter | Archive
Jets GM Mike Maccagnan has spent a lot of time this offseason looking at the quarterbacks in this draft. But that isn't necessarily unusual. In fact, he said, the Jets "feel pretty good" about the quarterbacks they already have.
"We have the two young guys (Christian Hackenberg and Bryce Petty) and we like both of them in terms of ability and potential," the Jets GM said during his pre-draft press briefing on Monday. "We feel pretty good about the guys we have."
That hasn't stopped him from looking, of course, and at least considering the possibility of the Jets drafting a quarterback with the No. 6 overall pick. They have scouted the top quarterbacks in the draft heavily this offseason and many believe the Jets will take one in that spot...

The Jets, coming off a 5-11 season and heading for a year that doesn't appear to be promising, are scheduled to play only one game in prime time on national TV - a league-mandated Thursday night game that every team must have.
The Jets will open the 2017 season in Buffalo against the Bills and close it in New England against the Patriots.
The Jets will also face the Raiders in Oakland in Week 2 and host the L.A. Chargers in Week 16...

Here is the most up-to-date information on what the Jets have done during free agency, including contract details and salary cap information. The signing period will continue through the NFL draft and right up until the start of training camp in July, so bookmark this page and keep checking back for frequent updates.
The Jets will meet with Ohio State CB Marshon Lattimore on Tuesday, a source told Ian Rapoport of NFL.com.
Gareon Conley, another CB from Ohio State, will visit the Jets on Tuesday as well.
Lattimore, 20, became a starter for the Buckeyes this past season, and was given First Team All-Big Ten honors.
The 6'0", 194-pounder redshirted during his first season at Ohio State in 2014 and was limited to just seven games in 2015 due to hamstring issues.

For the first time in three years, Muhammad Wilkerson showed up for the start of the New York Jets' offseason training program.
The big defensive lineman was pictured at the Jets facility in Florham Park, New Jersey, on Monday morning, as the team officially kicked off its voluntary workouts. Last year, Wilkerson declined to participate because he wasn't happy with being tagged as the Jets "franchise player." He skipped them in 2015 as he hoped to pressure the Jets to give him a new deal.

In addition to meeting with Miami tight end David Njoku on Monday, the New York Jets also met with Alabama linebacker Reuben Foster and NC State safety Josh Jones, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
The Jets, who own the No. 6 pick in next week's NFL Draft, have given no indication as to which player they might pick, as a sample of 30-plus mock drafts has New York picking between eight players, ranging from quarterbacks to cornerbacks.
Foster, who recorded five sacks and 115 total tackles in his senior season with Alabama in 2016, is a 6-foot, 229-pound linebacker who did not participate in the NFL combine.
CB Marcus Williams has signed his free agent tender with the Jets, the team announced Monday.
Williams, who has spent the last three seasons with the Jets, has eight interceptions over the last two seasons.

The only consensus among the mock drafters on whom the Jets will take at No. 6 is that there is no consensus -- and that's unusual for such a high pick this late in the process.
But with only 10 days to go until the first round of the NFL draft begins, the picks in 32 mock drafts examined by SNY are split fairly evenly among eight players. The belief seems to be that the Jets will use the pick to fix their secondary (50 percent of the mock drafts have them going corner or safety), though some still believe they'll take a quarterback (32 percent).
The New York Jets will meet with Miami tight end David Njoku on Monday after his previously scheduled meeting with thwe Giants was canceled, according to ESPN's Jordan Raanan.
After having a formal interview with the Giants at February's NFL Combine, Njoku was scheduled to meet with the Giants for a second time on Monday, according to The Record's Art Stapleton. Instead, the New Jersey native will meet with the Jets.
The 20-year-old Njoku, who is expected to be a first-round pick in the NFL Draft, had 43 catches and eight touchdowns for the Hurricanes last season.

We added our second child, Noah Blake Ramsey, on April 3. My wife, Bethany, endured 30 hrs of labor & after not enough progress (24 hrs after water broke) we scheduled a c-section. Thankfully, The Lord knew best bc Noah had his chord wrapped twice around his neck.
On a lighter note, it rained & got cold the week leading up to his birth. He was 12 days late, & folks kept asking "when is Noah coming out of the ark?" We'll, since he came out, the weather has been quite nice! However, I don't recommend referring to a pregnant woman as an "ark".
Can't wait to get Noah & Naomi in the field!

Subwoofer Features:
Round/Circle: This is the typical and common subwoofer design. They have a round cone and are a circle in design.
Square: These woofers are able to achieve a greater cone area in a smaller space. Because of the greater surface area, some square subwoofers will be louder than a round subwoofer of the same size.
Binding post terminals are a sturdier, more versatile type of speaker terminal. Because binding post terminals are are threaded, you can tighten them down against the wire or connector for a tight, clean connection. The most popular style of binding post terminals is known as a "5-way binding post". This type can accept bare wire, or any of the common speaker wire connectors. Binding posts with the option to be used with banana clips are even more versatile
Spring posts are a hybrid of the two. Instead of using a thread and "screwing" them tight, they use a spring to allow the wire to fit and tighten against the terminal.

Well, I'm a big fan of text-mode applications like centericq, links, etc. But some time ago I decided to dive into UTF-8, but it caused me problems: those applications don't handle UTF-8 well yet. Since mutt handles UTF-8 very well, it wasn't that bas. But having to switch Gnome-Terminal tabs to iso-8859-1 encoding every time I wanted to use centericq or links was kind of annoying.
I've just found a workaround for this. It's not the final solution, but a nice temporary one while there are applications that don't "speak" UTF-8.
The secret is to use luit, a great utility that is already included in XFree86 distribution. luit converts the terminal I/O of between UTF-* and the current locale.
For example, :
As I do use an UTF-8 locale, what I have to do to make centericq run nice inside my UTF-8 terminal:
$ LANG=pt_BR.iso88591 luit centericq
Now I have in my .bashrc:
- alias links='LANG=pt_BR.iso88591 luit links'
- alias centericq='LANG=pt_BR.iso88591 luit centericq'
BTW, Debian has a centericq-utf8 package, which doesn't work at all. That's not because of the packaging, but because centericq-utf8 doesn't use the right ncurses features to abstract the input encoding, what would make the simple fact of linking the application to libncursesw intead of the plain libncurses enough to make it UTF-8-aware.

By Parrish Alford/NEMS Daily Journal
OXFORD – The premier program in college basketball visits Tad Smith Coliseum tonight trying to upset the home team.
Ole Miss coach Andy Kennedy calls Kentucky "the most storied program in college basketball."
The Wildcats (13-6, 4-2 SEC), however, lost most of the players who helped them win last season's national championship. They enter tonight's game unranked.
While Kennedy is impressed, his best scorer, Marshall Henderson, has a different opinion.
"I'm not really that excited to play Kentucky. I know they're good and all, but I never grew up thinking, 'Oh, Kentucky'" he said. "I was all about Duke. If we were going to play Duke, I would be like, 'Yeah, we're going to play Duke!'"
Ole Miss climbed to No. 16 in both polls on Monday after wins against Tennessee and Auburn in which Henderson was 10 for 28 from 3-point range. He had 28 points at home against the Vols and 15 at Auburn including the game-winning free throws with 6.4 seconds left.
The Rebels (17-2) are 6-0 in the SEC for the first time. Their nine-game win streak is the longest in the conference.
Kentucky coach John Calipari said Henderson gives Ole Miss "a different flavor" but adds the Rebels were solid without him when they faced Kentucky team in Lexington last year.
"We didn't get away from them until a four-minute stretch in the second half. Other than that it was an even game," Calipari said.
record in sight
Ole Miss forward Murphy Holloway needs four rebounds – he's averaging 10.4 – to tie the school's career-rebounding record that has stood since 1977.
Holloway and his running mate, Reggie Buckner, will have to contend with Kentucky's Nerlens Noel, a 6-foot-10 freshman averaging 6.2 blocked shots in SEC play. He's also averaging 10.6 points and 9.4 rebounds overall.
"He's incredibly talented at the basket," Kennedy said. "Six blocks a game in league play is mind-boggling. They had a very special player at the basket last year in Anthony Davis. I'm not sure even he was the defensive presence that Noel is at the basket."

"My dearest dust"
I was lying awake the other night thinking of this poem. It's (part of) an epitaph on her husband, written in 1641, which is the only verse of hers which survives.
MY DEAREST DUST by Catherine Dyer
My dearest dust, could not thy hasty day
Afford thy drowsy patience leave to stay
One hour longer: so that we might either
Sat up, or gone to bed together?
But since thy finished labour hath possessed
Thy weary limbs with early rest,
Enjoy it sweetly: and thy widow bride
Shall soon repose her by thy slumb'ring side.
Whose business, now, is only to prepare
My nightly dress, and call to prayer:
Mine eyes wax heavy and the day grows old.
The dew falls thick, my blood grows cold;
Draw, draw the closed curtains: and make room:
My dear, my dearest dust; I come, I come.
You can see a photo of the original here.

Family: Anatidae, Ducks and Geese view all from this family
Description ADULT MALE Has mainly black plumage (dark brown on flanks), which emphasizes striking white horizontal comma-shaped patch seen below pale eye, and glimpsed patch of white on closed wings of swimming birds. Bill is mostly pinkish, but more blackish near the base. First-winter male is browner overall than adult and lacks white under eye. ADULT FEMALE Mainly dark sooty brown plumage, but note pale cheek patch and pale patch at base of dark bill.
Dimensions Length: 19-24" (48-61 cm)
Habitat Locally common. Nests beside inland tundra pools in Arctic. Outside breeding season, almost exclusively coastal, favoring bays and estuaries with sandy seabeds.
Observation Tips Easiest to find in winteróscan a sheltered bay from an elevated vantage point and look for the diagnostic white highlights on otherwise dark-looking birds.
Range Rocky Mountains, Mid-Atlantic, Texas, Western Canada, Plains, New England, Northwest, Florida, Eastern Canada, Alaska, Southeast, Southwest, California, Great Lakes
Voice Mostly silent, but occasionally quacks and breeding males whistle.
Discussion Bulky duck that dives frequently and for long periods. Similar to, but larger than, Black Scoter with which it sometimes consorts in winter. Both sexes have white inner flight feathers, striking and obvious in flight but often visible, albeit only partially, in swimming birds too. White markings on head of male enable easy identification, while female's facial markings are useful features to look for.

Former FDA official discusses women's health, Feb. 21
Posted February 16, 2006; 10:41 p.m.
Susan Wood, formerly the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's top
official on women's health issues, will speak on "Women's Health,
Emergency Contraception and the FDA" at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 21, in
16 Robertson Hall.
Wood served as the FDA's assistant commissioner for women's health and director of the agency's Office of Women's Health from 2000 to 2005. She resigned in protest of the agency's decision to delay a final ruling on whether the "morning-after pill" contraceptive should be made more easily accessible.
Before joining the FDA, Wood was the director for policy and program development at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Office on Women's Health, where she focused on issues in the areas of international health, reproductive health, legislation and health care policy.
From 1990 to 1995, Wood worked for the Congressional Caucus for Women's Issues, an organization of members of Congress dedicated to advancing legislation promoting legal, economic and health equity for women. Prior to that, Wood was a research scientist at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
The lecture is sponsored by the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, the Office of Population Research and the Gender and Policy Network.
