A post for the Advent Calendar of Christmas Memories
When I think of Christmas, I certainly don't think of biscuits. One exception would be shortbread (mmmm), and the Danish sugar cookies that come in the big round tins at Christmastime.
Mince pies, on the other hand, now that's Christmas! A sweet, moist, fruit mince mix (that generally came from a jar but could always be made from scratch if you wanted) piled into home-made pastry and cooked until the glazed top was lightly crisped. Oh yes.
Mum's mince pies will always be one of my favourite Christmas memories.

Yesterday, the story of the two Ole Miss students who had their laptops stolen over the weekend only to find them mysteriously returned in shrubbery with a note attached decided to follow-through with a public thank you to the anonymous good samaritan.
They tacked this note to the side of a telephone pole in front of their house in the hopes that the Mom sees it, giving her peace of mind that her good deed did not go unnoticed. Hopefully her son doesn't steal the telephone pole before then.
Thanks for your continued support of Deadspin. Hickey in a bit.

The Red Sox have made a significant addition to their bullpen, acquiring righthanded reliever Mark Melancon from the Astros for infielder Jed Lowrie and reliever Kyle Weiland.
Melancon, a hard-throwing 26-year-old had a 2.78 earned run average and 20 saves in 74.1 innings for Houston last season. He struck out 66 and walked 26.
The Red Sox have signed veteran utilityman Nick Punto to a two-year contract, according to CBS Sports' Jon Heyman.Bleh. Ortiz agrees:
Heyman reported Punto, who turned 34 in November, is guaranteed $3 million with another $500,000 possible in incentives. ... [Punto is a] lifetime .249 hitter with a .652 OPS ...

As free agency kicks off, here is my first shot at a mock draft. I always tell people that no one knows anything this time of year, myself included. Even reporters close to teams who get information are likely being fed smokescreens. However, mock drafts are fun and people enjoy them, so here is my best educated guess as of March 11. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to drop me a line on Twitter @thepigskinguy.
1. Houston Texans: Teddy Bridgewater, QB Louisville – Unless the Texans simply don't like any of the top quarterbacks, this pick will be used to take one. Bridgewater is criticized a lot because he has been pegged as one of the top two picks in this draft for two years. However, there is also a lot to like about him. I have followed Bill O'Brien for a while and Bridgewater has everything he looks for in a quarterback. History suggests teams with the first pick that need a quarterback usually go with the safe choice over upside, so I think when the smoke settles, Houston will opt for Bridgewater over Blake Bortles.
2. St. Louis Rams: Greg Robinson, OT Auburn – The Rams would probably like to trade out of this spot but if they stay, Robinson is a logical selection. He fills a need for St. Louis and Robinson is now the top offensive tackle on many draft boards following his impressive combine.
3. Jacksonville Jaguars: Jadeveon Clowney, DE South Carolina – Gus Bradley is a defensive minded coach and unless the Jaguars absolutely love one of the quarterbacks in this draft, it will be hard for them to pass up on a prospect like Clowney if he's still on the board at three.
4. Cleveland Browns: Blake Bortles, QB Central Florida – Everyone on the planet appears to love Brian Hoyer but an organization needs more than him at quarterback if they want to end decades of losing. Bortles still needs some work but he is smart with a big arm. I describe Bortles as a poor man's Andrew Luck coming out of college and I say that as a compliment considering I expect Luck to be a Top 3 NFL quarterback very soon.
5. Oakland Raiders: Sammy Watkins, WR Clemson – I actually have Watkins as the top overall prospect in this draft. I think he is the one can't-miss prospect given all the physical attributes Watkins brings to the receiver position. That theory will be tested if he goes to Oakland but Watkins certainly fills a need for the Raiders. Oakland has some decent receivers but no one close to being in Watkins' class. He will be a game-changer from Day 1.
6. Atlanta Falcons: Khalil Mack, DE Buffalo – Mack dominated in college and while some will point to the fact that he played in the MAC, he had some of his biggest games against top-level competition. I saw Mack play a couple of times against bigger schools and he was a terror coming off the edge. He will instantly help a dormant Falcons' pass rush.
7. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Jake Matthews, OT Texas A&M – The Bucs could go in many different directions but Matthews would be tough to pass up here. Matthews is a devastating run blocker and he has quick feet for a guy his size. The Bucs want to run the football and Matthews will help them solidify their line.
8. Minnesota Vikings: Johnny Manziel, QB Texas A&M – The Vikings re-signed Matt Cassel but they want to add a young quarterback in the draft and Manziel makes sense for Minnesota. A polarizing figure, Manziel will be an easy sell to a fan base that idolizes the quarterback he is often compared to: Fran Tarkenton. While Manziel does run a lot, when he threw from pocket last season he did a much better job of going through his progressions than the year before. Also, like him or not, Manziel ripped Nick Saban's defense twice and that doesn't happen often.
9. Buffalo Bills: Mike Evans, WR Texas A&M – The Bills are set on building around EJ Manuel and giving the young quarterback a 6'5 receiver is a great way to help him. Stevie Johnson is slowing down and there aren't many receivers that can make plays with corners draped all over him like Evans can. Evans, Robert Woods and Marquise Goodwin would make an intriguing young trio of receivers in Buffalo.
10. Detroit Lions: Darqueze Dennard, CB Michigan State – A lot of people like Justin Gilbert as the top corner because of his speed but I don't think it's close. Dennard was the best cover corner in college football last year. Denard is tough, smart and he would make a great addition to Detroit's secondary.
11. Tennessee Titans: Anthony Barr, LB UCLA – Barr could easily be a Top 10 selection given his ability and production in college. However, if Barr slips to 11, the Titans will have to strongly consider him. Tennessee can go in a lot of different directions but the Titans are in need of an explosive pass rusher and Barr fits the bill.
12. New York Giants: Taylor Lewan, OT Michigan – Linebacker is a popular pick for the Giants and they certainly need to upgrade at that position. However, the Giants had one of the worst offensive lines in the NFL last season and protecting Eli Manning is the team's top priority. Lewan was one of the few bright spots on the worst coached team in college football last year once Lane Kiffin was fired.
13. St. Louis Rams: Ha Ha Clinton Dix, S Alabama – When your name is "Ha Ha" you should be drafted in the Top 15 by law. Dix is all over the field. I actually think he is one of the 10 best players in the draft at any position. The Rams safeties are dreadful. Dix would come in and be a huge upgrade to a defense that already has a nasty front seven.
14. Chicago Bears: Timmy Jernigan, DT Florida State – How bad was the Bears' rush defense last year? Ray Rice gained 131 yards on them. Chicago is one of the easiest teams to project. They badly need a defensive tackle or safety. If the talented Jernigan is on the board, he will be a strong possibility for the Bears.
15. Pittsburgh Steelers: Aaron Donald, DT Pittsburgh – Like Chicago, the Steelers could go safety or defensive tackle here. Receiver is also a possibility but Donald is flying up draft boards. He also represents both value and fills a need for Pittsburgh. The Steelers often take the best player available and at 15, Donald would be that guy on a lot of boards.
16. Dallas Cowboys: Louis Nix, DT Notre Dame – The run on defensive tackles continues. The Cowboys' defensive line is likely to take another hit when they lose DE Jason Hatcher to free agency, as Jerry Jones' mismanagement of the salary cap continues to put the team in a bind. Dallas desperately needs a nose tackle and Nix is one of the top ones in this draft. He would be an excellent pick for the Cowboys, which means you can cross him off the list.
17. Baltimore Ravens: Odell Beckham, WR LSU – The Ravens badly need another receiver to complement Torrey Smith and help Joe Flacco. Beckham is a tough receiver that can go inside similar to Anquan Boldin, only with more speed. Beckham is one of the most underrated players in the draft. He has all the skills to be a star NFL receiver.
18. New York Jets: Eric Ebron, TE North Carolina – Geno Smith took a lot of criticism in his first season and much of it was deserved. Still, the Jets had the worst group of receivers and tight ends in the NFL. New York has to go offense with this pick to help its young quarterback. They could take a receiver but Ebron is the top tight end prospect available and would represent great value if he is still on the board at 18.
19. Miami Dolphins: Zach Martin, OT Notre Dame – Martin was excellent during his career at Notre Dame. He dominated as a left tackle and Martin has the versatility to play multiple positions on the line early in his career. Given all the problems the Dolphins have with their offensive line right now, Martin would be an excellent selection for them.
20. Arizona Cardinals: C.J. Mosley, LB Alabama – We are getting to the point in the draft where value matters and while Arizona does need an outside linebacker, Mosley is too good to pass up here even if the position may not be the team's most pressing need. Mosley would fit in nicely with one of the emerging defensive units in the NFL.
21. Green Bay Packers: Calvin Pryor, S Louisville – The Packers had some of the worst safety play in the NFL last year. If either Pryor or Clinton Dix are on the board at 21, Green Bay will have to strongly consider them to address a major weakness.
22. Philadelphia Eagles: Justin Gilbert, CB Oklahoma State – Gilbert probably won't last this long but I'm not as high on him as some people. When it comes to corners I think it's Dennard and everyone else. The Eagles' secondary was awful last season. They could address it in free agency but either way, corner and safety are both options for Philadelphia at 22.
23. Kansas City Chiefs: Marqise Lee, WR USC – The Chiefs need more gamebreakers on offense and Lee would be a steal this low. Lee is slipping among draftniks but they need to look at his college situation. When you still put up numbers despite playing for the worst coach on the planet, it says a lot. I think Lee is one of the top offensive threats in the draft.
24. Cincinnati Bengals: Kony Ealy, DE Missouri – The Bengals will likely lose Michael Johnson, so Ealy will help Cincinnati upgrade at a vital position. Ealy is a quick edge rusher who is also strong against the run. He can step in and rotate with Carlos Dunlap and Margus Hunt as a rookie.
25. San Diego Chargers: David Yankey, G Stanford – The Chargers showed at the end of last season their offense is at its best when they can run the ball effectively. Yankey is a piledriving run blocker who will instantly upgrade San Diego's line at a position of need.
26. Cleveland Browns: Brandin Cooks, WR Oregon State – The Browns are picking here because the Colts thought they said "sixth round" pick instead of "first round" pick for Trent Richardson. Cleveland obviously has many needs but Josh Gordon is really the only threat the Browns have at receiver. The explosive Cooks would change that, along with giving Cleveland a dangerous return man.
27. New Orleans Saints: Dee Ford, DE Auburn – I have Ford as a Top 15 player in this draft and will probably move him up as we go along. However, right now this is the area he is projected to go in. Ford dominated last year in the SEC and if he goes to the right team like the Saints, I think he will be a stud in the NFL. I won't be surprised if someone like the Steelers grab him higher in the draft but if Ford lasts this long, Rob Ryan will love him.
28. Carolina Panthers: Kelvin Benjamin, WR Florida State – If a top receiver is on the board at 28, I have to think the Panthers will pull the trigger. Carolina has the pieces in place to make another Super Bowl run, they just need more weapons in the passing game and help at offensive tackle. The 6'5 Benjamin would give Cam Newton a huge target, especially in the red zone.
29. New England Patriots: Kyle Fuller, CB Virginia Tech – If New England loses Aqib Talib, I like this pick for the Patriots. Fuller is the kind of smart, versatile corner Bill Belichick likes. Watching him in college, I could see Fuller playing for New England, so I'm projecting him to go there over the more popular Jace Amaro pick.
30. San Francisco 49ers: Bradley Roby, CB Ohio State – The 49ers don't have many weaknesses but one area where they could stand to upgrade is at cornerback, especially after releasing Carlos Rogers. Roby was inconsistent last season but he still possesses a ton of physical ability. Under the right coaching staff, Roby has the tools to be a top-tier NFL corner.
31. Denver Broncos: Ra'Shede Hageman, DL Minnesota – The Broncos could grab an OT here to protect Peyton Manning but with Robert Ayers and Shaun Phillips' futures both in doubt, defensive line is an area of need as well. Besides, if Hageman lasts this long, the versatile lineman will be one of the top players left on the board.
32. Seattle Seahawks: Jace Amaro, TE Texas Tech – Seattle likes Luke Wilson but Amaro would add another dimension to the Seahawks' offense. Amaro creates a lot of mismatches with opposing defenses and would give Russell Wilson a legitimate threat at the tight end position. Amaro is coming off a season where he caught 106 passes at Texas Tech.

This Android-Based Smart Watch Looks Like an iPod Nano
LAS VEGAS – Pebble got a ton of attention for its smart watch at CES this year. It wasn't the only smart watch company, however, to have a major announcement.
Originally announced at last year's CES, Italian-based I'm watch announced the next iteration its smart watch. Reminiscent of the iPod nano watches you may have seen walking around, the I'm watch consists of a bulky square watch face with an even bulkier strap attached.
Identical in design to last year's model, the watch is now running "Android 2" the company's own custom version of the operating system specifically for the watch.
Connected to your phone via Bluetooth, the watch can be used to answer calls, receive text messages, and even interact with Facebook and Twitter. I'm watch's version of Android is similar to that used on Amazon's Kindle, in that you don't have access to the full Android Market.
Stocks, News, Weather, and even a custom Instagram app come pre-loaded on the device, and there's a Marketplace on the watch where you can find and add additional apps.
We're taking one of the I'm watches home with us after the show, and will have a more thorough look at the gadget in the coming days.
Would you rather have a smart watch such as I'm watch that looks like an iPod nano, or one that uses an e-ink display like Pebble? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Hi Again,
This app is very cool, especially for those of us a little overwhelmed by mencoder, Lots of nice switches for H.264 in ffmpeg as well, I don't know what voodoo you used for keeping the dependencies so minimal, but overall another great video app for Linux!
I took 4 seconds in GIMP and made an icon if anyone cares to use it here it is:

built on May 2 2008 17:41:24, gcc: 4.2.3 20071123 (prerelease) (Debian 4.2.2-4)
FFmpeg version SVN-r13037
unrecognized option '-sws_flags'
The video files are not in correct sort order (name) in the input file window
If mplayer is not found copy paste of the mplayer location causes it to crash when an input files is selected. It seems it must be entered by navigating with the file selector button.
One more thing.
Can you make the default video resize option to be the original size? Or no resize unless selected? Mine defaults to 4x2.
update to 0.99.4
fixing problem with piping
better queue
"fixed" (hope so) mplayer path copy
some tuning on x264
NOT FIXED: sort on input
NOT FIXED: sws_flags (on my 64bit debian i have still the 12810 ffmpeg build)
NOT FIXED: resize on input
BHHHDConvertToX, AutoMen, AutoMKV Developer
ok, fixed the sort order in next update (i add all supported files to array, sort it, add to list..)
about sws_flags: i tested (on win) the 13537 build (sherpya build's), and sws_flags is working

Thanks for your hard work!
update to 0.99.5
add mp4box support: when you pipe or make yuv for encoding with x264 you have the option to mux the h264 stream (and audio) with MP4Box (gpac 0.4+) in MP4
fixed sort input list
fixed create bat button
To FIX : with on input file (bug only in linux version)
To FIX: optional sws_flags
Link in first post
BHHHDConvertToX, AutoMen, AutoMKV Developer
in next update sws paramenter will be used only if user select another resizer

Hi buzz,
I see you've added mp4box which is great, The problem with x264 files for iPod users is that iTunes wants a specific UUID atom in the .mp4 or .m4v stream, As far as I know mp4box doesn't do this properly but nicmp4box does, Is it possible to add nicmp4box for muxing? This would really open up this application for iPod users in Windows and Linux users who want compatibility with iTunes.
Even in WinFF we can't do this, Matt the developer (understandably) doesn't want to get involved with having to run 3rd party programs, so we can't make iTunes compliant H.264 on either platform.
I did this remake of the 3GP converter which does this for Windows, it uses ffmpeg and then uses nicmp4box for iPod compliant muxing:
Just to be clear, you can make iPod compliant H.264 .mp4 files in ffmpeg alone, but they do not work with iTunes which is not an issue in Linux but is an issue if you share a networked library with Windows machines running iTunes.
Just asking, Your time spent on this great application is very much appreciated.My Site: http://www.bandshed.net/AVLinux.html
My Guide: https://forum.videohelp.com/topic330839.html
Firstly, thanks for looking into it!
Here is the link to "Nic's" site:
Unfortunately I don't see anything about a Linux binary
Will your Windows version run under WINE? It will be a pain to have nicmp4box alone depend on WINE for your Linux version.My Site: http://www.bandshed.net/AVLinux.html
