As his joyous teammates got ready to take the celebratory team photo after capturing its first men's lacrosse Little East Conference championship since 2007, junior Cam Sousa (Hollis, N.H.) raced over to the Owls' bench to grab Alec Corliss's jersey No. 31.
Keene State got six goals from tournament MVP Griffin Meehan (Simsbury, Conn.) and overcame the adversity of losing top goalie junior Alec Corliss (Waltham, Mass.) midway in the third quarter to defeat rival Eastern Conn. State University 14-10 to claim the LEC crown on Saturday evening at Owl Athletic Complex.
Riding a nine-game winning streak, KSC improves to 12-5. Eastern Conn., the defending LEC champion Warriors, fall to 12-5.
Corliss, who had made 10 saves, several on point-blank shots, went down following a collision at the side of the net at the 8:30 mark of the third-quarter. Nursing a slim 10-8 lead at the time, the Owls rallied behind their fallen goalie.
"That was a motivating factor for the boys," said KSC Coach Mark Theriault. "They met the challenge. "After Alec left in the ambulance, I was going to call them together. But they didn't need me. I just let them do it by themselves. The emotion and heart was there and we just rolled from there."
The Owls raced out to a 4-1 lead after the first quarter. After Corliss robbed junior Grant Albertson (New Cannan, Conn.), who was alone in front, KSC scored two late goals, the last coming by Meehan, with two seconds to play in the quarter.
KSC outscored the Warriors 6-4 in the second quarter to go into the locker room with a 10-5 lead.
Junior Eric Vasil (Southington, Conn.), who won 19-25 face-offs, provided ECSU with possession of the ball and the opportunity to get back in the game. A man-up goal by sophomore Salieu Boliver (Norwalk, Conn.) cut the Owls' lead to 10-8.
"Our goal was to score 20 goals, but Vasil just got on fire and started dominating," said Theriault. "Fortunately, we got our bearings back."
The game was won in the trenches. Led by senior Easton Kezer (Derry, N.H.), the Owl defenders were able to get the ball away from the Warriors. "Today they just told me to go after the ball and it paid off," said Kezer.
After losing their goalie, the Owls rallied behind Meehan, who netted a pair of key goals to give KSC a 12-9 lead. "You have to rise above when your teammates need you," said Meehan, who leads the team with a school record 66 goals.
Holding a 12-10, lead, KSC scored a pair of transition goals to go up 14-10. Bursting out of the backfield with the ball, senior defenseman Kyle Barnett (Londonderry, N.H.) fed freshman Taylor Jette (Simsbury, Conn.) for a goal. Less than a minute later sophomore Warren Dill (Yorktown Heights, N.Y.) picked up a loose ball and scored to make it 14-10.
Keene State took advantage of several late Warrior penalties to maintain possession and claim the LEC crown.
Freshman Jonathan Roderick (Plaistow, N.H.) had three goals, Jette had two and senior Jamie LeSage (Exeter, N.H.), sophomore J.T. Galloway (Simsbury, Conn.), and Dill each scored a goal.
Boliver had three goals and senior Michael Glennon (Walpole, Mass.) and junior Vinny Tornatore (Norwalk, Conn.) each scored twice to lead Eastern Conn.
Freshman goalie Jason Lesser (Brewster, N.Y.) played the finals 24 minutes of the game and didn't record a save for KSC. Freshman Donald Berube (Tewksbury, Mass.) made 15 saves for the Warriors.
KSC will find out its next opponent when the NCAA field is announced on Sunday night.
"This is our goal every year," said Theriault. "In our locker room it says NCAA or bust."
It's the third LEC championship for the Owls, who also won titles in 2005 and 2007. Eastern defeated KSC 12-8 in last year's finals. The two teams have faced each other in six of the seven past LEC championship games.

OE BMW Delivery Schedule Update
Hi All,
My name is Matt. I'm the owner of eEuroparts.com. This is my first post and I wanted to bring everybody some good news. With the new year we've been refocused on BMW parts here at eEuro. We've agreed to a new delivery schedule on our OE BMW parts. We now get daily deliveries of Genuine BMW. We've been doing this for about two weeks and it looks like our lead-time on any special order parts or not in stock parts has been cut from the 5-7 business days currently displayed on the web site to 2-3 business days from your order to when it leaves our warehouse. Ideally over the next few months we will be direct stocking a lot more of the parts you need but in the interim we can get you whatever you'd like much faster than before.
Additionally if you call in before 1 PM we can get special order parts in 1-2 days. So if there is something that you have that's critical we can have it next day in many situations.
If you haven't visited the web site recently I hope that you do. If there is anything you need feel free to PM me or email me at matt AT eeuroparts DOT com.

NINETY SIX, S.C. -- On the eve of the Big South Conference men's golf championship, a pair of Campbell University student-athletes have earned post-season honors.
Senior Vaita Guillaume was named to the Big South all-conference team in voting by league head coaches. Senior Mitch Gray earned a place on the Big South all-academic team.
The Big South men's golf player of the year, coach of the year, freshman of the year and scholar-athlete of the year awards will be announced at the conclusion of the conference championship on Wednesday.
The Big South stroke average leader (70.46), Guillaume won his fourth title of the year, the most in a season by a Campbell golfer during its Division I history, breaking tournament records in the process for 54-hole total (204) and score to par (-12) at the Coca-Cola Wofford Invitational.
Guillaume added the Coca-Cola tourney crown to three other events he has already won during the 2011-12 season -- the Georgetown Intercollegiate, Kiawah Classic and Bash at the Beach. His victory was his 4th in his last 6 outings.
He finished (69-64-71--204) the Coca-Cola Invitational at 12-under-par, one stroke ahead of Charleston Southern's Jacobo Pastor (73-65-67--205) in the individual standings and led Campbell to a 3rd-place showing (288-283-290, 861).
Campbell has placed among the top 5 schools in each of its 9 tournaments this year with three team titles (Golfweek Program Challenge, Kiawah Classic and Bash at the Beach).
In last Monday's second round of the Coca-Cola Invitational, Guillaume tied the school and tournament 18-hole record with an 8-under 64 on the par-72, 6648-yard Country Club of Spartanburg layout. Guillaume matched the school 18-hole record of 64 first set by Simon Dunn at the 2001 UCF Rio Pinar Invitational. Guillaume also shot 64 at the 2010 Mardi Gras Invitational and 2011 Charleston Shootout.
The senior from Papeete, Tahiti notched his career-best 36-hole performance (133), a mark that stands 2nd in school history and only two strokes off the Campbell record of 131 set by Kyle Spahr at the 2006 Hartford Hawks Invitational. Guillaume's 204 tally for 54 holes is also a career-best and the fourth-lowest in Campbell's men's golf Division I era (since 1977-78).
His win also marked the 18th time he has finished among the top-10 individuals in a collegiate tournament.
Guillaume stands 43rd in the latest Golfstat Cup listing. His average score stands 12th in the country. Guillaume leads the nation in par-4 scoring (3.94) and in putts on greens in regulation (1.706). He stands 10th in the country in putts per round (29.0).
Like Guillaume, Gray has participated in all 26 rounds for the Camels this year. He has produced a pair of top-10 finishes, including a seventh-place tie at the Golfweek Program Challenge.
The senior from Florence, S.C., owns a 73.54 stroke average, 12th-lowest in the conference, while owning a 3.755 grade-point average as a business administration major.
Gray recorded his best collegiate 54-hole score (71-69-69--209) and produced his best finish of year (T7) to help CU win the Golfweek Program Challenge (Sept. 11-13, 2011) men's stroke play title. He has been in the Camel lineup for three tournament titles in 2011-12.
As a junior, Gray was one of 138 players in NCAA Division I named Cleveland Golf/Srixon All-America Scholar by the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA). He earned Atlantic Sun Conference All-Academic honors in each of his first three collegiate seasons.
Guillaume and Gray, along with sophomore Amanjyot Singh and freshmen Grant Houser and Kurtis Straw, will start the 2012 Big South Championship on Monday at 10:20 a.m., paired with top-seeded Liberty and third-seeded Coastal Carolina.
The 54-hole event continues Tuesday and concludes with Wednesday's final round at The Patriot Golf Club.
Live scoring is available on-line at Golfstat.com.

Back again! I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl a year and a half ago, unassisted pregnancy, unassisted childbirth... and recently found out we are expecting again. It was just daddy and I together alone and we really felt we could have used an extra pair of hands. We'll be moving to Florida in a couple of months and have no friends there so once again we will be alone with the birthing process. We have considered hiring a midwife to have that extra pair of hands around-- but i'm not really feeling too keen on the idea. any thoughts/experiences/opinions?
Love and Light
If you could find someone really hands off, maybe. I don't have personal experience but I'd be concerned they would make me do things that I didn't want to because they have some liability worries even if they were mostly hands off.
I have a hospital midwife group and part of me wants to see if giving birth there would be a good idea but whenever I think about it there are so many things that worry me from my previous bad hospital birth experiences that fear might be in the way. That and I'd have to be alone at the hospital unless they allow my husband and children in the room too. We don't have friends or family here either.
I'm pretty sure I'll do an UC this time. You have to weigh out your options - maybe figure out what your options really are. (ex. Seek out a hands off midwife or 2 or 3 in your area and interview them.) HTH
Happily married Christian SAHM of 2 boys, DD1 , and DD2 July 2013
I'm kinda feeling the same way... that if i have a midwife they're gonna make me do some things i don't wanna do because of liability issues. I went to one appointment with a local midwife here with my last UC and didn't go back because of how angry she was (she rolled her eyes) that I wouldn't get blood work done.
I understand completely! We're moving to Texas before the birth, and I like the idea of being able to call someone in the even that I feel like we need someone, but I don't want to feel pushed. I have UC'd twice already, and don't really want any outside interference, but at the same time, I have always had someone I could call just in case, friends, family, at least someone near by, but once we get settled it will just be DH, myself, and the littles. It's a perplexing feeling... I'm debating flying someone out around time just to have someone near by, someone that I know won't interfere, or even bother me for that matter unless I ask them to... kwim?
I was also debating flying someone out around the time just to have someone around....
Hi, I'm new here. :) I decided that I need to do a UC. I have had one child in a medicated hospital birth, and one midwife attended attempted homebirth that ended up in the hospital. I am in Florida, btw. What people are suggesting is right-- you need to find a midwife who is "hands off", but legally and also training wise, that can be hard. Many of them are sticklers to certain rules in place and won't honor your wishes. This has been my personal experience. They are very nice people and seem trustworthy enough, even promising in interview that if I needed them to "fade into the woodwork" they would do so, but when the time came that was simply not the case. I believe that my experience was scarred by their presence and interference and that the stress it caused myself and the baby is what led to us winding up in the hospital. In other words-- I think if I had been doing UC, everything would have been just fine. BTW, I was seeing these same midwives for prenatal on my current pregnancy (only 2 months left!), and they dumped me when I confided in them my desire to do UC. I still wanted their care in all other respects, but I guess things are too messy for them legally to keep me around. They advised me to see a physician or the county health clinic if I wanted any continued prenatal care. :(
Vegetarian Spiritual wife to Joshua (HS sweetheart, together since 1999); mother of Eve (Dec 2003) Cian (March 2009), and Sage (March 2011)! <--!
My book about what I learned from my experiences with childbirth was published April 2011.
I think we've pretty much decided to UC again. It's hard because we're moving and I don't have any girlfriends in Florida that could come and be my female presence. With the last UC, it happened so quick we didn't have time to call the friend who was supposed to come, and I had really wished she had been there. That was my main motivation for wanting a midwife, but your experience Elizabeth, has actually come up into my head a number of times as a one of my lingering fears of having a mw, and I do understand a little of how legally bound they are to certain things and I don't want to run the risk of having a potentially irritating experience or worse, ending up as a transfer. I do not want to end up in the hospital... and I just don't think I could feel confident that wouldn't happen if I have a mw. I know if I uc, I will only transfer if my heart thinks it's best and I think that's the situation I am most comfortable with.

Elizabeth Bishop's 'One Art' Scores a -2.50305521472
Turns out, in the literary death match between Sylvia Plath and Elizabeth Bishop, it's Plath all the way! Or, that's to say, Plath's poem "Edge" (which scored a 1.42302654867) is closer to the "professional" end of the spectrum according to the Poetry Assessor, an application created by an Australian team of computational linguists to quantify a poem's degree of "professionalism." More about the project:
The purpose of this paper is to examine what distinguishes a "professional" poem from an "amateur" poem. The central idea here is that professional poets are more likely than amateur poets to have grasped the basic skills associated with writing poetry and have therefore been able to produce poems of lasting quality. Amateurs, on the other hand, are less likely to have mastered the basic required skills and are therefore less likely to have produced work of lasting quality. Intuitively, we know that there are differences between the skills of amateurs and professionals in various fields and we are quick to make aesthetic judgments based on our raw subjective responses. However, the objective quantification of the factors that lead to such responses is rarely considered. By using computational linguistics it is possible to objectively identify the characteristics of professional poems and amateur poems. This way an objective basis for our subjective responses can be identified.
The upshot of identifying the characteristics of high quality poems is that we can then come up with a means of placing poems on a continuum according to how much a poem exemplifies the characteristics of an amateur poem or, at the other extreme, a professional poem. We can then use this continuum to rank professional poems and, in doing so, we can make some objective statements about which poems are "better". There is a tradition of considering some poets as "minor" and others as "major" (Eliot, 1946). Placing poems on a continuum that is based on the extent to which poems possess the craftsmanship of a professional may be a step towards explaining why some poets are "greater" than others. Thus, an important element of this paper is the creation of such a continuum using a corpus of contemporary American poets.
So, there's a database of poems written by "professional" poets and a database of poems by "amateur" poets, and poems that run through the assessor are judged against either data-set. It's all fine and dandy to compare like with like, but it's another thing to get in the "lasting quality" business of "minor" and "major" poets. After all, Ol' Possum himself scores a mediocre 1.29599346405 for "The Waste Land." And as far as we're concerned, you don't get more pro than the Possum.
But go ahead and give it try yourself.

Unlike some other countries, it is quite possible to secure a teaching position in Thailand before you enter the country, particularly if you have a resume showing previous teaching experience and good references. This can be advantageous in one respect because it is necessary to secure appropriate visas outside of Thailand. However, many teachers choose to go to Thailand first to look for a job and then do a 'visa-run' to some neighboring country. The advantage of doing it this way is that you have an opportunity to size up potential employers and working conditions. There are also many employers who will hire teachers illegally, i.e. without a work visa. While this method gives a certain degree of freedom, it will be necessary to exit the country every three months in order to renew your tourist visa. Over time, this method can become quite wearing and somewhat costly.
In order to work legally in Thailand you first need to obtain a non-immigrant B visa, and you must apply for this at any Thai embassy or consulate outside of the country. For this you will need:
A copy of a letter confirming a job offer from your prospective employer.
2 passport-sized photos.
Completed and signed application visa application form.
Often, your employer will also be required to supply documents relating to their company registration. Visas can often be processed overnight, but has been known to take longer. A polite attitude and smart attire will certainly help your case.
Once you have obtained the non-immigrant B visa, you may enter the country. At this point, you will need to complete several forms, supply further photos and hand your passport to your employer who will complete the application on your behalf. Once everything has been processed, you will need to go to the Department of Labor in person to collect your work permit. You must sign the permit in the presence of an officer before it is laminated. Next you will need to make a trip to the Immigration Department where you will get the visa in your passport extended for 12 months from the day that you entered the country on your non-immigrant B visa. Finally, you will need to visit the Tax Department to get a tax card. You should always retain possession of this card, and do not surrender it to the school where you will be working as you will need it if you change jobs in the future.

That rumor has been around for a long time, and it's misleading...Originally Posted by Shiftyy
At StageII power levels on any VF powered car, the intake is a restriction. The '08+ airbox seems to be a bit more of a restriction than previous MYs, but it's still a restriction. I'd say that if you have a VF turbo (or larger), get an intake.

Craigslist Missoula lists three adult services ads this week. One of them, posted by self-proclaimed sexy ebony bombshell "Kiyera Amour," says she's flexible and also mobile, willing to visit in your home or hers. Another, posted by "Vikki," displays a picture of a leggy blonde wearing a red push-up bra and a short black skirt. Vikki offers to "come make Your day Extra Special."
Pitches like this are raising the ire of Montana Attorney General Steve Bullock, who signed off on a letter Aug. 24—along with attorneys general from 19 other states—demanding Craigslist remove its adult services section from the online marketplace.
"Because Craigslist cannot, or will not, adequately screen these ads, it should stop accepting them altogether and shut down the adult services section," states the letter addressed to Craigslist founder Craig Newmark and CEO Jim Buckmaster.
Bullock told the Independent in an interview this week that this isn't the first time state officials have asked Craigslist to tone down erotic, and allegedly illegal, advertising. More than a year ago, the same coalition of attorneys general asked the company to clean up its act. Craigslist responded by replacing the "erotic services" category with "adult services" and promised to screen ads more thoroughly.
"The changes are insufficient," Bullock says.
Bullock and the other attorneys allege the site continues to provide a venue for individuals engaged not only in prostitution but also sex trafficking.
Craigslist spokeswoman Susan MacTavish Best says the company is committed to working with law enforcement to ensure the online marketplace operates aboveboard.
"We strongly support the attorneys general desire to end trafficking in children and women, through the Internet or by any other means," MacTavish Best said in a statement. "We hope to work closely with them, as we are with experts at nonprofits and in law enforcement, to prevent misuse of our site in facilitation of trafficking, and to combat such crimes wherever they appear, online or offline."
A request asking the company to detail specific steps Craigslist plans on taking went unanswered.
Bullock says he's optimistic Craigslist will comply with the most recent formal request. If not, the attorneys will reconvene to plan their next move.

The 43rd running of the Sno Drift rally Jan. 30-31 in northern Michigan kicked off Rally America's 2009 season. This is the only snow rally on the nine-race schedule, and for once, Mother Nature did her part. There was plenty of snow everywhere, with the roads banked high with piles of the white stuff, all the better to bounce rally cars off.
Granted, besides Travis Pastrana, few Rally America drivers would get recognition beyond their own families. Pastrana's teammate, Ken Block, who started skateboard shoe/clothing brand DC, is the star of a viral internet video that has garnered, to this point, some 16 million hits, and Tanner Foust has won a couple of Formula Drift titles and has done quite a bit of stunt driving for Hollywood films. Dave Mirra, who is just getting started in rallying, has won everything one can win in BMX riding, but if you're older than say, 15, chances are you've never heard of him. So beyond that, the Rally America folks are pretty much anonymous.
But that doesn't mean they're without talent. Just a few minutes standing in the woods and that becomes perfectly clear.
Rally spectating combines a love of motorsports with orienteering. Rally organizers provide detailed maps as to where the rally stages are being run--in this case, on closed-to-the-public public highways. Some rallies are run on logging trails or off-road highways, but Sno Drift, for the most part (one stage was run on private land and a special spectator stage was set up in a gravel pit) is on public, mapped roads. The stages are run close enough together that you can't really watch consecutive stages. Even if you stayed to watch only the first dozen cars or so, by the time you got out of the stage and to your vehicle, chances are the next stage is under way.
So with a little bit of planning, a good map and a decent sense of direction, rally spectating can be a lot of fun--and exhilarating. If you're dedicated, you could get to see maybe half of the stages. A third of the stages would be a good goal.
And then there are the service stops where you can talk to the drivers and crews, plus see some fast and furious action. I watched the crew from Vermont Sports Cars change the transmission in Mirra's car in less than 20 minutes. That might not sound like breakneck speed, but considering it was done in 20-degree temps, on a tarp beneath a tent set up in the Atlanta, Mich., high school parking lot, it was a feat worthy of admiration.

An unusual case could tell researchers more about the genetic changes that occur when a common bacteria, normally carried without any problems, on rare occasions causes potentially life-threatening infections.
Eight mutations occurred in the common bacteria Staphylococcus aureus as it turned from an innocuous resident inside one person's nose into a fatal blood infection, an Oxford University study has found.
The study, which sequenced the complete DNA of the bacteria at regular time intervals, was able to identify for the first time the genetic changes that accompanied the transition to a dangerous infection.
Understanding the biological causes of serious bacterial infections could help guide screening in hospitals, and could inform efforts to develop vaccines against such infections. The study is published in the journal PNAS and was carried out in partnership with Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust through the National Institute of Health Research (NIHR) Oxford Biomedical Research Centre.

WHITE TOWNSHIP: Grant would pay for park upgrades
The White Township supervisors approved a resolution Wednesday to apply for a DCNR grant for the second phase of renovations at Kennedy King Park at 620 Josephine Ave.
The matching grant would be for a total of $170,000; the township would be required to provide $20,000 and $65,000 worth of in-kind services.
Ryan Shaffer, the recreation director, said the renovations include putting in a pickle-ball court, adding a pavilion, making the sidewalks handicapped-accessible and refurbishing the baseball fields. Pickle ball is played on a badminton-sized court with a lower net and a ball similar to a wiffle ball.
Shaffer said there is a growing group of senior citizens who are setting up pickle-ball courts on the basketball courts during the summer.
The supervisors also met for executive session for about 20 minutes for personnel and legal matters, solicitor Michael Delaney said.
When they reconvened, Delaney said the township's insurance company had agreed to settle a complaint filed by a township woman who said her home sustained damage after the township's sewer project in the area of South Sixth Street and Carter Avenue. Delaney did not name the woman but said she filed a complaint with the township, which forwarded it to the insurance company. The township is not involved in the settlement.
He also said the supervisors authorized township manager Milt Lady to advertise for a new code enforcement officer. Currently, Chris Anderson serves as both the code enforcement officer and the assistant township manager.
The supervisors also approved the final payment of $119,978.90 for the Mack Park bathhouse project. The township is administering the grant that is being used for the renovation project, and so must approve each payment.

Roof repair code question
Looking at a house with a leaking roof. It has been leaking for a few weeks, but the recent storm actually brought an entire shingle down to the ground. Looking at the roof, where the shingle is missing, bare wood sheathing is exposed. There is no evidence of any missing felt anywhere.
So assuming there is no felt on that roof, my question is, is it even an option - code-wise - to repair the shingle on that roof? What are the options that would be allowed by building codes other than reroofing the whole house?
Sounds like a can of worms to me.
Really need some picture to try and guess what else was done wrong.
Tar paper on a roof is roofing 101, if they skipped that step what did they do wrong?
If it's been leaking for a while now the sheathing, rafters, insulation, sheetrock and even the flooring may now be damaged.
Your local building inspectors would be able to answer your question. I've certainly seen roofs installed without an underlay, mostly on new construction.
Sounds like the roof is at the end of its lifespan. You should either have it replaced before buying or negotiate a decrease in the selling price.
There is also a good chance the paper just blew away. Even if there's no trace of it on the ground that doesn't mean it isn't there, tar paper can fly quite the distance in a bit of wind.
Yeah, I actually had considered that the paper might have flown away. It would be a little strange for it to break off so cleanly - the complete rectangle under that shingle. But it's possible.
I called my local building code office, and they said if the roof was at least 7 or 8/12, it was actually allowed. This one is probably 8/12.

Pope, Salvador president, discuss beatification of slain archbishop
By Philip Pullella
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - The president of El Salvador met Pope Francis on Thursday to urge his fellow Latin American to put Archbishop Oscar Romero, who was murdered by a right-wing death squad in 1980, on the road to Roman Catholic sainthood.
The sainthood process for Romero was effectively stalled under former popes John Paul II and Benedict XVI because they saw him as too close to Liberation Theology, a radical movement which emphasized helping the poor and opposing injustice.
President Mauricio Funes said before leaving for Rome the main purpose of his visit was to appeal to the pope to move forward with Romero's beatification, the penultimate step before sainthood.
Romero, the Archbishop of San Salvador, was shot dead on March 24, 1980, as he celebrated mass in a hospital chapel. He had often denounced repression and poverty in his weekly homilies.
The murder was one of the most shocking of the long conflict between a series of U.S.-backed governments and leftist rebels in which thousands of people were killed by right-wing and military death squads.
No one was ever brought to justice for the murder although former army major Roberto D'Aubisson, who died in 1992, is generally believed to have been behind it.
Previous right-wing Salvadorean governments frowned on the possibility that Romero, an icon for Latin American liberation movements, could become a saint. But the leftist Funes made a state apology for the assassination on the 30th anniversary in 2010.
On Thursday, Funes gave Pope Francis an ornate reliquary holding a piece of the vestment Romero was wearing when he was shot. The reliquary, with the fragment of the blood-stained garment, read: "Oscar Romero, spiritual guide of Salvador". Continued...

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — LeGarrette Blount ran the Patriots into their third straight AFC championship game.
The 250-pound back had four touchdown runs and New England kept Andrew Luck from a second straight comeback win to beat the Indianapolis Colts 43-22 Sunday night.
Blount scored on three 2-yard runs in the first half, then burst through the right side of the line and rambled 73 yards into the end zone, where he placed the ball gently on the ground made soggy by a game-long rain. He finished with 166 yards on 24 carries.

Although I do actually like my job, it's not often that I can honestly say I'm actively looking forward to spending some quality reviewing time with a new TV. But the Samsung UE55B7020 is an honourable exception.
With its combination of a 55in screen, Samsung's awe-inspiring ultra-thin edge LED design concept and, hopefully, the same outstanding picture quality noted previously on the set's smaller UE40B7020 sibling, I really was prepared for the UE55B7020 to show me a thoroughly good time. Especially as its arrival coincided with the arrival of the latest Star Trek movie on Blu-ray, and most excitingly of all, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 on my Xbox 360…
Not surprisingly, the UE55B7020 doesn't disappoint in the slightest aesthetically. In fact, seeing the same 29.9mm depth I saw on the UE40B7020 applied to the rear of a screen as large as 55in across is an even more mind-blowing experience. Plus the sleekness of the bezel together with the see-through centimetre or so of 'crystal' that extends beyond the main black frame all looks somehow even better when delivered in such generous proportions. I should add, too, that I prefer the no-nonsense black colour scheme of the UE55B7020 to the red-tinged approach of the also-available 550B7000.
The UE55B7020 obviously sports the same connectivity as the UE40B7020. And it's prodigious, with the stand-out options being four HDMIs, not one but two USB ports, and a LAN socket.
Looking at some of these in more detail, the USBs cater for direct playback of MP3 and JPEG files from USB storage devices, as well as enabling a wireless connection with your router if you cough up £40 or so for the necessary optional USB dongle. As for the LAN, it can be used for a hard-wired connection to the Internet, or for accessing files on a DLNA PC.
As a review site that also covers games consoles, I think it's high time you started to include input lag figures in your TV reviews. It doesn't even have to be done that scientifically - just use the lag calibration tool in one of the Guitar Hero games. Run the test with the various processing features switched off (100Hz etc.), then with them switched on, then give us an idea if the TV's game mode improves matters.
Considering the popularity of console gaming, there aren't enough TV reviews that include input lag figures. This is a highly important consideration for a serious gamer when considering a TV, but it is so often overlooked in reviews.
For as much as I appreciate the reviews your organisation produces, I would be grateful if they were more grounded in the real world where us, the great unwashed, live.
For example, how many of us really have the need or space for a 55" television, when our modest abode would more realistically host a 32".
I understand the need to dream of "aspirational" stuff, but living in dreams only is a condition best left to the specialists at the Faculty of Medecine.
Keep on the good job, by making it more grounded...
Kerwood, maybe it's time to have a bath and move somewhere with a bigger bedroom, I bet in ten years time you'll be staring at a 60 inch at least, assuming of course that the programme providers haven't drowned us all in soaps and celeb programmes; nurse, quick, I need more plasma ...
I'm with Fleabane in spirit. The thing about these reviews of expensive TV sets is that you're not likely to be able to afford them, but it's a glimpse into the future, and what features are likely to make it into the cheaper sets in a couple of years time.
Plus, it's interesting to see how the high-end stuff fares, in much the same way that it's interesting to see supercars reviewed on Top-Gear. Although, it's always good to have more affordable stuff reviewed, but I believe reviews like this are the exception rather then the norm.
Dear Fleabane,
Moving somewhere with a bigger bedroom would not help as, contrary to you, I watch television in the study or the drawing room. You are probably right that in ten years time you will be watching 60" TVs as there is little chance that by then you'll have reconciled yourself with the size of your manhood.
Dear Pbryanw,
I beg to disagree when you state "I believe reviews like this are the exception rather then the norm". If you care to look at the TVs section of this website, you will notice that the latest reviewed TVs are 40" up to 58" in size, and none at the 26" to 37" bracket most people are actually considering for the forseable future.
Are you prone too to the shower room syndrome?
What country are you guys in? I don't think I know a single person with a TV under 42" as their main entertainment source. Sure...I know people who have 28-32" for a second TV in the bedroom or something, but a 26" TV in my living room would be like watching a digital photo frame. I actually downsized a couple of inches when I purchased my last plasma and I'm still at 50". Walk into a Costco and 95% of the televisions they sell are 42" or larger.
I'm not sure that's true. Anyone here thinking of buying a 26" in the forseable future?
If you take a look at the average high street TV department these days, the majority of TVs that they display are 40 inches or above. If this didn't reflect buyers' preferences then these shops wouldn't make much money. I tried to buy a small TV for the kitchen not long ago, and I really had to search for one. Large TV's just don't cost as much as they used to, so that's what most people seem to buy.
Just bought a 46" Panasonic TX-P46G10 last week for £750 after reading about it in TR (great review John!). I thought it might be too big for the living room (I live in a bog standard 3 bed semi) but it's pretty much perfectly sized.
And I have a 32" Toshiba 32AV615D in my bedroom (thanks again John). It was only £299 which is definitely within most people's reach and definitely doesn't overwhelm the room.
Fair enough this Samsung is a bit expensive but you can buy a hell of a lot of telly (price and size) for not too much if you shop about.
@Kerwood - Hehe, no I just have a normal(?) sized 32" LCD - no big TV's for me. If I had a big enough room I would get a 40-55" but I don't like it when the TV is out of proportion to the room, and my living room is small.
Having had a second look at the recent TV reviews, there does seem to be a lack of 26-32" reviews. You have to go back to September when there were a couple. So, I'd second that vote for reviews of more affordable, smaller, TVs. I especially wouldn't mind a review of the 32" LED TV (UE32B6000) from Samsung - as it's one of the first at that size to have LED backlighting.
Looks like this is now discontinued. It's been out of stock with DSG (Currys, Dixons, PCWorld) for the last two months.
Recommendations for the best alternative with LED backlighting, not sidelighting?
(BTW, need 47" as have a decent sized lounge to put it in)

I am a 20-something year old woman who has been wanting a bigger butt FOREVER. My butt has a nice shape but it only looks decent when I'm overweight. When I get down to my ideal weight (complete with a small waist), my butt goes completely FLAT. I've thought about getting this surgery for several months now but got really serious about it a couple months ago. After extensive research, I chose Dr. Ghavami in Beverly Hills. He is known to specialize in this surgery and his credentials are amazing. So I feel comfortable and safe knowing that he has great expertise and knows what he's doing.
My surgery is set on August 24th and my consultation is August 2nd. He is really booked so I put a payment down of $750 last month just to schedule my surgery 2 months in advance. The earliest date they had for a consultation was August 2nd so I didn't want to wait so long just to have a consultation, then wait even longer to schedule surgery, so I just scheduled everything at once (very impatient woman here lol)
So anyway, right now my waist and hip measurements are 36-40.5..I measured my waist around my belly button (the farthest extended area), I don't even know if that's the proper way to do it, but whatever lol
I am currently around 144lbs and I'm 5"5. I'm actually trying to gain more weight because I want a DONK..if I'm paying all this money, I want to be walking around looking like Nicki Minaj's little sister lol. I am going to make sure I emphasize this to Dr. Ghavami at my consultation. I will update then :)

Today was my consultation! The staff were really...
I told him I wanted my butt to be BIG with LOTS of volume. He explained to me that transferring too much fat would look good for a year or two, but the added weight would cause it to SAG low and hang over time 0_0 this is not what I want AT ALL. So I told him I want it big but to put the amount that he feels is appropriate so that I won't have that "hanging" problem lol. I trust his expertise so I'll let him do what is best. He said he'll transfer around 700-800 ccs, so that's a good amount. I already kinda have a butt, so this should be enough. I'm very excited and looking forward to my surgery date. I will keep you all updated.
Yesterday was my surgery. Let me first say that Dr...
I don't notice much of a difference in my butt so far through the garment, but I keep reminding myself that it's far too early to be critiquing, so I'll stay patient. Not sure how many ccs I got, but he told me he would probably be able to inject 700-800. I told him I wanted as much as possible, so I'll find out at my visit with him in a few days. I'm sooo happy Dr. Ghavami doesn't use drains, I don't think I would've been able to work with that; it's already difficult enough to maneuver without anything attached to me.
I have been eating light..so far I've eaten apple sauce, teddy grams and crackers. For dinner I had a small amount of grilled chicken and veggies. I've been drinking plenty of water and urinating frequently. It's uncomfortable and semi-painful to pee at the moment since they had a tube up my urethral opening during surgery. I urinated on my garment today, which was really annoying..especially since I can't take this garment off for another 3-4 days -_-
Word of advice: when using the urinal, make sure the top is completely covering your entire vagina and is tight against it.. I was afraid to do this initially because I thought it would hurt, so I tried to aim in the urinal with it an inch away from my vagina..bad idea. Pee everywhere. My poor boyfriend had to clean everything up. He has been extremely helpful..I couldn't have managed without him at all.
Sleeping on my stomach isn't bad. I went to sleep around 10p.m but I've been waking up due to the soreness and my inability to get in a comfortable position. I walked around my apartment to get blood circulating a bit and my boyfriend woke up with me to keep me company and check on me..he's such a sweet heart. Anyway, that's all I have for now..I'll try to sleep now. Any questions, let me know. I'll post a few pictures
So it's been 1 week since my surgery. I have...
I went to my first post op appointment 4 days ago and Dr. Ghavami said he put in close to 900 ccs and said he was really pleased with the result..he said I'm gonna look great. He removed my garment and checked everything. I am going back in 6 days for my first massage. I purchased another garment and came home and showered. It's really weird touching my core and butt because some areas are really numb so it doesn't even feel like I'm really touching my body sometimes. So far I'm satisfied with the shape and look of my butt. I'm trying not to get attached to it exactly how it looks now because I know there's still a lot of swelling, and it'll go down. My hips are great so far, I'm definitely pleased with how they turned out..I really hope they don't go down much. My butt isn't HUGE.. but in reality, I don't know if I would've wanted that. I have friends with really big butts and they get hounded by savages daily..that's not the kind of attention I want lol. I just wanted more hips, butt and a flatter stomach and so far I have that, so I'm a happy camper. A better shape is all I desired, I really don't need a gigantic ass. My boyfriend seems to think it's huge though, I don't really think so. But he's really happy so far..I've been fighting him off me a bit lately lol. Also, I'm going to start trying to eat healthy because I don't want my stomach to get pudgy again because of bad eating habits. Lipo is not a permanent fix, you have to maintain your results, so I'm going to focus on doing that. But so far, my stomach is getting flatter each day so that's great.
I have been taking colace stool softener as recommended by the Dr. I sit on the toilet with a towel under my thighs and try to lean on my thighs as much as possible, but hey, I have to sit down to use the bathroom..soo I haven't completely been off my butt -- not sure how some people manage to do this. But hopefully this doesn't do much damage..the colace makes it easy to go, so I'm only sitting on the toilet for 2-3 minutes at a time. Also, I experience shortness of breath really easily, which is annoying, so I try to take it easy and not do too much around the house. The anti-itch cream I'm using has been useful, the itching is a B***h! This is due to my nerve endings repairing themselves, apparently..so I guess it's a good thing, but it's rather annoying to itch everywhere under this garment and being unable to scratch properly. Well that's about it, I'll update at 2 weeks, any questions, feel free to ask :)
My apologies for not updating and completely abandoning this site lol. I got caught up in life and didn't feel like it. I also removed all pictures because the paranoia in me was afraid of being identified.
Long story short: as time passed after my surgery, my results became only semi-satisfactory (for my personal preference). After the swelling went down, the "hips" I thought I had completely went away, my butt was smaller than I would have liked -- and most importantly, my stomach was no where near as flat as I wanted it. Granted, Ghavami told me he would not be removing too much fat from my stomach because he didn't want to "ruin the skin there", or something of that sort. He also talked me out of wanting too many ccs because he said it could "sag" overtime. And we never talked about him adding fat to my hips, so I don't know why I assumed he did lol. Therefore, I cannot act too surprised about my results. I just regret not being adamant about what I wanted and looking for another surgeon if he was not willing to deliver. I took his word because he's the professional, but it resulted in me still not being necessarily happy with my results.
After my surgery, my butt looked huge while I had my garment on. It was the perfect projection and size. I became known as having a big booty for the first time in life lol. But when I didn't have my garment on, I was not particularly pleased with my butt. I then began to notice a very slight flatness on both cheeks (which was minor, as I was the only one who noticed it), but still, I felt it could've been rounder. Overall, I appreciated it for being bigger than what it initially was -- but I still wanted MORE.
2 years after my surgery, I had gained about 15 pounds and was content with my butt size (for the most part), but was not happy at all with my waist. I began to work out but became deathly afraid of losing what butt I had left. I then just decided one day to have this surgery again with a new surgeon! I got through it the first time fine, so another time shouldn't hurt, right? ehh..
I am now speaking from the other side of my 2nd round BBL =) (6 days post op) I will be posting a brand new post with my experience very soon, stay tuned!
Ghavami was a very nice surgeon and gave me "more" of a butt, but he did not completely give me what I wanted. I allowed his expert advice to overshadow what I truly wanted. I wish I would have been more adamant about what I wanted, but I cannot blame him entirely for that. I just wish he wouldn't have discouraged the results I wanted. But overall, he was a good surgeon, just not for me.

Cell Organelle Comparison To
A Fire Department In this project I'll be comparing the organelles withing a cell to a fire department in a city! The nucleus which is the control center of the cell
control's all of the cells activities, Just like the fire
chief at a fire station. Both control other things,
the fire chief controls the firemen and other employee's and the nucleus controls the other organelles with in the cell. The Mitochondria or powerhouse of the cell provides the cell and its organelles with food and water that they need to function correctly . The mitochondria is similar to a mess hall and it's workers at a fire station. Both provide other things with food and water that are needed to function properly! The Golgi-Apparatus receives and distributes proteins to other parts of the cell. This is similar to the emergency operator at a fire station. The operator receives emergency information and distributes the information (address, how bad situation is, etc) to the fire men and other employee's just like the Golgi-Apparatus! The cell membrane controls what enters and exits the cell
kind of like a security guard! This is similar to the security/security cameras and alarms at a fire station. If something enters or exits the station that's not supposed to other people are alerted which causes the violators to be scared off/arrested or their scared off just because of the sudden noise/alert . So both control what pass in and out of an area. By: Triton Martin
