The North American steel industry is committed to building a sustainable future. The American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) and its member companies share a deep dedication to responsible stewardship of our natural resources so that future generations can enjoy them just as we cherish them today.
Over the past decade, AISI's board of directors has identified environmental stewardship and commitment to sustainability as part of our strategic plan and our vision for the future. As we have in the past, we continue to examine strategies to advance that vision. Currently, we see the commitment to improving our environmental performance being advanced through investments in new and innovative technologies; renewal of our long-time commitment to recycling; refinement of industry performance metrics; and collaboration both across the industry and with other sectors.
Innovation has led to the introduction of a wide variety of new steels. In fact, 50 percent of the steels used to make automobiles today didn't exist just 10 years ago. The efficiencies gained from using lighter-weight yet higher-strength steels are impressive, which, when taken in the context of lifecycle impact assessment, have the potential to help achieve significant progress in emission reductions. If currently available advanced high-strength steels were applied throughout the current U.S. automotive fleet, greenhouse gas emissions from automobiles would be reduced by approximately 12 percent—an amount greater than the emissions generated by the entire American steel industry today.
The industry has committed significant resources to this effort. Since 1975, steel companies have spent more than $60 billion on new technologies to improve energy efficiency and productivity. That investment has paid off. The industry has reduced energy use per ton of steel shipped by more than 40 percent during the past 25 years, and by 27 percent since the Kyoto baseline year of 1990. As a matter of fact, the steel industry is the only significant industry in the United States that has reduced its total energy consumption from the Kyoto baseline while increasing its production.
Because of our long-term focus on recycling, the North American steel industry has seen a continued steady rise in the recycling rate for steel. For example, when it comes to cans, steel has outperformed the aluminum can for the past several years by having the highest recycling rate. The overall recycling rate of steel reached an all-time high based on the most recent data compiled through 2005, with an overall recycling rate of 75 percent. Surprisingly, the industry is still working to make the public aware that steel is the most recycled material on the planet—more than aluminum, paper, glass and plastic combined.
The AISI has been actively engaged with a number of organizations outside our industry to achieve environmental progress. One major focus of AISI's work has been the Asia Pacific Partnership for Clean Development and Climate (APP). Cooperating with the U.S. Commerce, State and Energy departments and the Environmental Protection Agency, the AISI has played a leadership role in this important initiative. Founding partners Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea and the United States have agreed to work together and with private-sector partners to meet goals for energy security, national air pollution reduction and climate change in ways that promote sustainable economic growth and poverty reduction.
The steel industry is poised, through the work of the AISI, to further advance efforts to reduce its environmental footprint through research projects at universities around the country aimed at reducing, and eventually eliminating, carbon dioxide emissions from the steelmaking process.
One example is a current project with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to produce iron by molten oxide electrolysis, which would generate no CO2—a significant first step toward carbon-free ironmaking by a technology that completely avoids emissions of greenhouse gases from the smelter. In addition to the MIT project, the AISI has three other long-range projects that will have a positive impact on the environment ironmaking by hydrogen flash smelting at the University of Utah; geological sequestration of CO2 at the University of Missouri-Rolla; and integrating steel production with mineral sequestration at Columbia University.
Another collaborative effort that produced significant environmental progress is the National Mercury Switch Removal Program, in which the AISI played a central role. AISI efforts helped to successfully complete an agreement with all stakeholders to implement a national program to remove mercury switches from vehicles prior to dismantling. Our industry contributed $2 million during a three-year period—along with $2 million from the automotive industry—to help fund the creation of the implementation fund to encourage removal of the switches. The program is being rolled out in all 50 states and will help ensure mercury air emissions compliance at both electric-arc and basic oxygen steelmaking operations. I am proud that my company announced its own participation in this important program on Aug. 2.
Environmental leadership isn't an option in the 21st Century—it is an imperative. The AISI has focused its leadership efforts around sustainable development as a way of meeting the needs of today without compromising the ability of future generations to meet the needs of tomorrow. Looking at sustainable development this way, the steel industry has developed two key indicators to track our progress toward attainment. First, we are measuring the continued growth in the overall recycling rate, which not only saves precious raw materials but also significant amounts of energy for future generations to use. Second, we continue to work with our customers to find new ways to use steel in sustainable ways, whether in cans, automobiles or appliances or the next environmentally friendly building design.
Through innovation, support for recycling, emphasis on metrics and collaborative strategies, the North American steel industry has made important headway on environmental initiatives. But this success must not lead to complacency. We need to press forward because the landscape around us is changing. Commitment to environmental stewardship, or "being green," shouldn't be construed as simply an attractive moniker or as a marketing gimmick. Our industry needs to be one of the players helping to shape the environmental agenda rather than watching from the sidelines.
I urge steel companies who might not yet be part of this vision for a sustainable future to join us. The challenge is great, but the rewards will be enjoyed by our children and grandchildren as they carry on responsible environmental stewardship of our planet.

Another day at the beach...ruined.
All because some dude wanted to play Free Willie at the beach.
A 35-year-old woman who visits Smathers Beach almost everyday told cops a man sitting near her at the beach had exposed himself and masturbated, according to an arrest affidavit from the Key West Police Department.
The woman also told cops that the man was reportedly "doing it so hard that his whole body was shaking."
When a cop had first arrived, he could not clearly see what the man was doing because the man was sitting near some sea oats with a backpack near his side, which obstructed the officer's view, the officer wrote in his report.
But the officer noted that he could see the man's arm moving although he could not determine the motion.
As soon as the man, later identified as Elijah Slocumb, of Key West, spotted the cop, he "immediately grabbed a small blue towel" and appeared to wipe his hands with it, the affidavit stated.
The woman told the cops that Slocumb, 42, had initially sat several feet away from her as she read a book. However, when she glanced up to watch some kite surfers, she then noticed the man had moved closer to her and was doing a little handiwork...ahem.
Cops noted in their report that Slocumb was sober before hauling him to the pokey.
That surely took the wind out of his sail.

Liberal Studies
We at Ursuline College invite you to consider our
Master of Arts in Liberal Studies (MALS) Program
. Our goal is to provide resources of intellect and imagination that prepare students to see the everyday worlds they encounter in fresh new perspectives and to act based on new visions.
Our organizing principle is values and their expressions. Values include beliefs and principles that society or its parts consider worthwhile. We examine a wide array of values-political, economic, social and cultural. Scholars have written extensively about technology and values. There are values based on gender, race, ethnicity, religion and age. There are national and regional values. Some values are persistent over time. Others fade away while new values emerge. These values reveal much about our society-past, present and future.
MALS examines these values through a variety of expressions such as art, architecture, religion, literature, the cinema, music and fashion. These expressions derive from the special expertise of committed full-time faculty at Ursuline College who teach MALS courses.
The program seeks a practical application of the values and expressions framework. We examine forces shaping these values, resulting behaviors, implications of these behaviors for society and lessons we might learn for responsible ways of living-in our personal lives and in the various worlds in which we live.
Our classes are small, generally fewer than ten students. They are seminar-based allowing for a fruitful student-faculty interaction as a way of learning. Classes may also include an online component or may be offered online. We regularly cross-list MALS courses with other Master's program courses with a values component. Students from other Master's programs at Ursuline also take MALS courses, resulting in rich and diverse class room settings.
We offer a one-third tuition reduction for educators and administrators in public and private schools as well as community librarians. We also offer a bridge program whereby undergraduate students at Ursuline College are able to earn up to six credits towards the MALS Program.
We at Ursuline College hope you seriously consider the MALS Program. It is a pathway to an alternative way of seeing and acting in the worlds we encounter. This program is for those who love learning, those seeking career advancement within their present occupations or seeking a degree for a career change, and for those giving thought to a doctoral program in the liberal arts.

What students are saying about the program:
Discussions become so interesting when you combine people with Bachelors degrees inart, business, computer technology, history, psychology, literature and science! So many different perspectives and innovative ideas emerged when discussing the variety of topics.
- S. Powers
My first class in the MALS program was my first time back in a classroom in years. I was challenged from the first day. I was asked to look at the world differently to be critical and analyze what information I was given. I am using the information I have obtained over the last 5 semesters to do just that, in my workand in my daily routine. I am grateful to all my professorsand the professors I will meet as I continue on in the program forgiving me another way to exercise my thinking skills.

Information by Country
Yemen: Press releases
Private Sector comes forward to support girls education in Yemen
The Business Partnership for Girls Education is first major private sector initiative of its kind in the country and is spearheaded by three leading business houses of Arwa Group (Shamlan Water), Spacetel and Universal Group. The Partnership illustrates private sectors affirmation and resolve to play their role in the promotion of girls education that has emerged as a national challenge demanding collective social action.
Business Partnership goes into action in different audiences from people all over Yemen to parents, teachers and children in 5 specific districts. five selected districts of Lawder ( Abyan Governorate), Toor Al-Baha (Lahij Governorate), Al-Azareq (Dhale Governorate) AL-Munera ( Hodaida Governorate) and Sanhan ( Sanaa Governorate) with the campaign whose chosen theme is Let me learn capturing the spirit of the girl child that is keen to go to school in the wake of all odds. Through this theme the campaign is trying to motivate all members of the community to play their role in the response to the urgency to reduce gender gap and send girls to school to realize one of the their basic rights.
The partnership is devoted to build a national consensus and attitudinal change for making a positive contribution in cash and kind to help overcome the barriers that surround the girls education. Yemen is facing a serious challenge to bridge the gender gap that at the national level shows that there are 63 girls per 100 boys in the Primary schools. Beyond the national average, urban/rural differences are marked and rise to a high gender gap of 55 points meaning that there are 45 girls are enrolled per 100 boysmaking the gender gap one of the highest in the region.
The accelerated campaign is the forerunner and part of the national programme to increase September enrollment and counter the high levels of drop-out in girls education in Yemen. The launch is organized jointly by the Ministry of Education, Business Partnership and UNICEF to affirm their commitment for promotion of girls education in a concerted manner to help achieve the national goal. The Business Partnership aims to mobilize a large and diverse group of private sector partners to create a sustainable private sector for education group to strengthen the social context for supporting access to basic education, especially for girls. In a practical demonstration of their support, private sector is distributing posters, flyers, stickers, notebooks, and assisting with production of radio and TV flashes for creating awareness on the importance of girls education. More notable among the other partners is World Food Programme which is playing a key role in the distribution of educational material through their well-established distribution mechanism related to Food for Education.

I'm back from FaerieCon! First off, I'd like to thank all the wonderful folks who stepped up to do guest-posts while I was away: Sharon Knight, Star Foster, T. Thorn Coyle, Teo Bishop, Laura LaVoie, and Eric Scott. They all did an excellent job of providing interesting, informative, provocative, and inspiring pieces for you, and I hope you'll follow them at their own blogs and projects in the future. As for me, I've returned to an avalanche of stories of interest to our communities, so I'm going to unleash the hounds in an attempt to get caught up.
- Former COG First Officer and Officers of Avalon president Peter Dybing has issued a request to the Pagan community for donations to 100 Percent for Haiti, and organization founded by artists looking to assist Haiti in the aftermath of the 2010 earthquake. Quote: "Today I am placing the call. Can you please support this worthy effort? We are not seeking large sums of money. It is in fact our small size that makes us so effective. We have no fancy fundraising materials, no adopt-a-child program, no tear jerking commercials, only real people making a difference with what little we have. Please consider joining us, committing to give a little in support of this effort. If you find that you can not commit funds to this effort, please forward this to others who may be able to assist."
- Anthropologist Tanya Luhrmann writes about her time studying occultists in the 1980s for Freq.uenci.es (which led to the infamous book "Persuasions of the Witch's Craft"). This leads Pagan scholar Chas Clifton to explain what made Luhrmann's work controversial in the first place, and how it partially inspired the book "Researching Paganisms". Also, check out Chas Clifton's post on the necessity of the Iliad for modern polytheism.
- This Friday, Veterans Day, a new Pagan podcast entitled Pagan Warrior Radio will launch focused on serving Pagan veterans and those on active duty in the United States Military. This new weekly internet radio show will be hosted by co-founders Pamela Kelly, facilitator of the Sheppard Air Force Base Pagan Circle, and Selena Fox of Circle Sanctuary. Quote: "Pagans have served and are serving in each of the branches of the US Armed Forces. We are creating Pagan Warrior Radio as an additional way to support Pagan veterans and troops and their loved ones, and to be a forum for networking, education, and dialogue. Shows will be a mix of news, information, music, reflections, ideas, and call-in discussion."
- The Esoteric Book Conference in Seattle is now accepting proposals for next year's conference. Deadline for proposals is January 15th, 2012. For more on the EBC, check out the recent guest-post from Dr. Amy Hale on the event.
- The Huffington Post looks at the important role botanicas play within the Latino community in the United States. Quote: "This is an old tradition that in part is a response to the lack of more formal resources, such as physicians, that Latinos have continuously utilized," said David Hayes-Bautista, a professor of medicine and director of the Center for the Study of Latino Health and Culture at the UCLA School of Medicine. "The tradition has been buttressed by the fact that Latino communities have usually had very poor access to formal medical care."
- A rabbinical court in Haifa, Israel has fined a woman for the practice of witchcraft. This included a polygraph test, and consultations of texts to find an alternative to stoning her dead (no, I'm not joking). Quote: "The wife denied her husband's charge that she practiced witchcraft, but she failed a polygraph test, leading the court to determine that she in fact had been practicing witchcraft. Death is the punishment for witchcraft in the Torah, but the rabbis found a source that instead allowed them to mete out the financial penalty." Oh, and did I mention the husband cheated on her, and that they were trying to get a divorce? Yeah, stay classy Haifa rabbinical court.
- Is the fantasy genre inherently Christian? DG Myers thinks so, but ED Kain rebuts that it's far more pagan than Christian in its outlook and orientation. Quote: "I think that fantasy is not founded in Christian themes so much as it is rooted in distinctly Anglo-Saxon mythology. And not just the mythology of the Medieval, feudalistic period, but the pre-Christian myths of the faerie-folk as well." More here, and here.
- Tomorrow is the Thai festival of Loy Krathong, a time to honor the goddess of the river, and ask "her forgiveness for man's polluting of the water and to thank her for fertility." More on this at the Washington Post.
- Broadmoor Hospital Chaplaincy Service in Berkshire says it is "responding to requests for pagan and Rastafarian input" for its in-house chaplaincy team.
- Sentencing in the James Arthur Ray sweat lodge deaths case has finally begun. First witnesses in the six days of hearings were very critical of Ray and his methods.
- So this has to be one of the most bizarre claims I've read in awhile: six 'Curse of Tutankhamun' deaths were actually murders perpetrated by Aleister Crowley according to Mark Beynon, author of "London's Curse: Murder, Black Magic and Tutankhamun in the 1920s West End". The Telegraph breaks down the accusations and there seems to be no hard, credible, evidence (something the author admits). In essence, if Crowley, or anyone he knew, crossed paths with a "victim" he could have done it. The whole thing is a smear-job designed to sell books to the gullible.
- Remember kids, practice safe Satanic sex.
That's all I have time for today, expect a write-up of my FaerieCon adventures in the near-ish future. In the meantime, do check out my interview with Qntal's Michael Popp at A Darker Shade of Pagan. As always, some of these stories may be expanded upon in future posts.

TROY, N.Y. - Powered by 552 yards of offense, including 263 yards on the ground, the Utica College football team defeated Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), 38-28, in non-conference action at East Campus Stadium. With the victory, the Pioneers, who got 177 yards on the ground from junior Jake Larson, move to 3-2. The Engineers, who had 429 yards of total offense, slip to 2-3.
Larson (Bemus Point, NY/Maple Grove) rushed 19 times for 173 yards with a 62-yard, fourth quarter touchdown. Sophomore Jesse Baldassare (Mt. Sinai, NY/Mt. Sinai) added 92 yards rushing with two touchdowns, including a 48-yarder, on 13 attempts for the Pioneers.
The Engineers got on the board first with a series that took just three plays. Junior wide receiver Austin Caswell (Round Rock, TX/Stony Point) pushed Rensselaer downfield when he caught a screen pass and ran 61-yards to the Utica 19-yard line. Quarterback Mike
Hermann (Hardeeville, SC/Avon Old Farms) then carried the ball to the 8-yard line and followed that a with a fake hand-off that he pulled back and scored for a 7-0 advantage at the 6:13 mark.
Utica answered at 10:42 of the second quarter when Baldassare carried the ball in from 2-yards out. Highlighting the drive was a 25-yard pass by Andrew Benkwitt (Mamaroneck, NY/Mamaroneck) to sophomore wide receiver Anthony Acevedo (New Hartford, NY/New Hartford), which brought the Pioneers down to the Engineers' 2-yard line.
The visitors wasted little time in taking the lead when senior cornerback Jon White (Endicott, NY/Union-Endicott) intercepted a pass and returned it 61-yards. A pair of penalties at the end of the run saw Utica at the Engineers' 8-yard line. Benkwitt completed the drive with a pass to sophomore fullback Alexander Ruta (Hilton, NY/Hilton) in the right corner of the end zone for a 14-7 advantage with 6:04 left in the second quarter.
Rensselaer fought back late in the stanza as a series of passes by Hermann, including a 10-yarder to sophomore tight end Joe Cozzolino (Chatham, NY/Chatham) drove the Engineers down the field. The pair connected at the end of the drive with Cozzolino catching a 5-yard touchdown pass with 52 seconds to play.
The Pioneers charged their way into the RPI end of the field, thanks in part to good field position at their own 40 yard line. Benkwitt completed a 44-yard pass to Acevedo for a first down at the Engineers' 14-yard line. Following three straight incomplete passes, junior Seth
Mitchell (Fonda, NY/Fonda-Fultonville) kicked a 31-yard field goal for a 17-14 lead.
Utica came out of halftime with the ball and Benkwitt hit junior tight end Matt Dunn (Miller Place, NY/Miller Place) for a 4-yard touchdown on its first series. Dunn highlighted the drive with a 19-yard completion.
The Engineers retaliated two series later as a 22-yard rushing effort by senior TJ Strunk (West Palm Beach, FL/Benjamin) and a 13-yard pass from Hermann to junior Nick Weber (Winchester, MA/Winchester) pushed RPI downfield. The drive culminated in a 2-yard touchdown run by Hermann and the Engineers trailed by three, 24-21.
The Pioneers pushed their lead back to 10 points on the 48-yard run by Baldassare with just 38 seconds left in the third quarter. Once again Rensselaer pulled to within three points, this time on a 3-yard rush by Hermann - his third of the day - at 11:41.
Utica answered on the ensuing drive when Larson ran it in from 62-yards downfield to make it a 10-point contest, 38-28, with 9:29 left in the game.
Benkwitt finished the day by completing 22 of 34 passes with no interceptions and two touchdowns. Acevedo was the leading reciever with eight catches for 157 yards.

Skin Deep: A Youth Culture Tattoo Documentary
In celebration of St. Patrick's Day, I'm sharing this 8-minute video "Skin Deep: A Youth Culture Tattoo Documentary," by Thinkhouse, which explores tattooing in Ireland through the reflections of Irish tattooers, seasoned and new. The artists include Kev McNamara and Sylwia Butkiewicz of Dublin Ink, Anto Ross of Spilled Ink, and Bren Harte of Dragon Tattoo.
There's some interesting discussion on the "unspoken rules" of not getting tattooed on hands, necks and faces until you have a lot of coverage; the reasons behind why so many young people in Ireland are heavily tattooed; and also thoughts on what tattooing will be like in 10 years. I recommend a look (perhaps with some Guinness).

It's that time of year again! April 25th marks the start of the migration period for the Adelie penguins. They swim northward into the surrounding Antarctic ocean about 600 kilometers (about 350-400 miles) where they will stay aloft among the icebergs. They'll dine on penguin-y favorites such as krill and keep themselves busy diving, swimming, and preserving their population.
April is part of the Antarctic winter so it becomes darker that far south quicker and the Adelies cannot see too well during this season. So while 600 kilometers isn't too far, it's quite far enough to go to enjoy the sunlight more often during the day time.
Find something fun to do for today that's penguin related. If you have time, check them out at your favorite zoo or aquarium. Read a book about them and expand your knowledge. Teach others about what today represents (for extra fun, use hand puppets!). Also give a moment to sign the petition at the Antarctic Oceans Alliance to help preserve the Antarctic Ocean and its marine inhabitants.
Enjoy the penguins and happy World Penguin Day!

First of all, I'm actually happy the company isn't moving towards full-touch all the time. The QWERTY candybar form factor - perfected by RIM - is definitely largely being ignored by Android (let alone iOS and WP7), and while it's personally not my cup of tea, I know a lot of people who prefer it to this very day. The same applies to the QWERTY slider, by the way, but slightly less so. I don't want all phones to look the same.
In any case, BlackBerry OS 10 will run on both full touch devices and QWERTY devices. This could be problematic for application developers, since they have to take into account two completely different resolutions and device types. Especially if you take into account RIM's often old school approach to device portfolio (more devices = better), this could be a potential disaster.
Luckily, RIM is aware of this. "We've listened, we've learned, and we are now telling you that moving forward new smartphones will be standardizing on the following screen resolutions which will allow you to design your applications to fit two main form factors," the company's Tim Neil announced. It's going to be 1280x720 (for touch devices) and 720x720 (for QWERTY devices). Definitely a boon for developers.
However, they're not really focussing on just these two resolutions. In a classic inexplicable move, the company's first BlackBerry OS 10 device will have a resolution of 1280x768, the same as the Dev Alpha device some developers have been having access to. "This first BlackBerry 10 device has been in the works for quite some time now with lots of supply chain management and manufacturing tooling to bring it to launch," Neil details, "So it's pretty much a sealed deal."
So, developers actually have three resolutions to deal with. Neil offers solutions for this problem, too. "Modify your application for each resolution to make use of the full resolution of the different BlackBerry 10 device screen resolutions" or "consider 'letter boxing' your app to 1280x720 on the first BlackBerry 10 device, leaving 24 pixels on both sides of the screen, so that you don't have any changes to make on the next generation full touch screen resolution."
This is illustrative of why so many companies - other than Samsung - are having difficulties competing with Apple's iPhone. Can you imagine Apple going for the suboptimal solution just because of "chain management"? Doubly so because we're not just talking about any phone, but the device which will essentially make or break the entire company. RIM is banking its future on this, and they are already compromising like this?
I'm still looking forward to BlackBerry OS 10, but things like this make me weary. Such a high profile release should not have compromises.

Stallone to star in one-man show
Sylvester Stallone is set to perform a one-man show in London, followed by a live interview with Jonathan Ross on stage.
The Rocky star will appear at London Palladium on January 11 and the audience will also have a chance to put questions to him afterwards.
He told the Daily Mirror: "What I am looking for now is for people to start seeing another side of me and what I want to start doing is a lot of seminars, like the one at the London Palladium.
"I love to tell stories. It is that drive that made me go behind the curtain, behind the scenes, to see how things are accomplished, watching from both sides of the biggest box office hits."
He added: "I am a people person and I am really very open. I really like the idea of letting the audience ask questions, to give them that opportunity and to give very specific answers.
"I like the idea of talking about your life, the journey that made you what you are. I think a lot of people may identify with this and think: 'Wow, he did it, why can't I?'."
The audience will hear stories about Sylvester's life and career, including his time working on the Rocky films and more recently The Expendables.

RALEIGH — Clemson defensive end Vic Beasley has made a career out of playing against North Carolina State.
Beasley, who has 13 career quarterback sacks, has six sacks against the Wolfpack over the past two seasons.
Beasely, a junior, turned in the defensive play of the game for the Tigers in the third quarter when he sacked Wolfpack quarterback Pete Thomas and forced a fumble that Clemson linebacker Spencer Shuey recovered. Five plays later, Clemson quarterback Tajh Boyd connected with Martavis Bryant for a 30-yard touchdown that gave the Tigers a 20-7 advantage.
"No question that was a huge play for us," said Clemson coach Dabo Swinney. "That play by Vic Beasley was huge. I thought that was the spark that really kind of got us going."
Three plays prior to Beasley's sack, N.C. State wide receiver Bryan Underwood appeared to score on an 83-yard jet sweep, but was ruled out of bounds at the Clemson 47.
Beasley had just two tackles coming into Thursday night's game with the Wolfpack, but both were sacks against Georgia. Beasley has five sacks this season and has 13 sacks in his last 16 games.
"I knew someone needed to step up and make a play," Beasley said. "We came out slow at first and picked things up and tried to pick things up in the second half. We needed some plays and we needed some big plays to get the momentum on our side.
"It's about making plays out there. I don't know what it is about (N.C. State), I think it's because they like to pass the ball a lot and I consider myself a dominant pass rusher."
In good company
Tahj Boyd's three touchdown passes against the Wolfpack put the Clemson senior tied for second place on the ACC's all-time passing touchdown list.
Boyd has 79 TD passes, which ties him for second with former Florida Chris Weinke, who had 79 TD passes from 1997-2000.
"I think when I look back on it, it'll mean a lot," Boyd said. "Right now I'm just concerned about winning football games."
Ironically, Boyd, who came into the game with 76 career TD passes, passed Russell Wilson (76) with his 11-yard TD pass to Sam Cooper in the first quarter.
N.C. State's Philip Rivers had 95 TD passes for the Wolfpack from 2000-03.
Almost perfect
Clemson place kicker Chandler Cantanzaro isn't perfect, but he's close. Cantanzaro, who became the school's all-time scoring leader Thursday night, has connected on 29 of his last 30 field-goal attempts.
Cantanzaro connected on two of two field-goal attempts — 45 and 49 yards — against the Wolfpack. Cantanzaro's lone miss came on a 48-yard attempt last season against Wake Forest.
Over that stretch, Cantanzaro has connected on eight of nine attempts from more than 40 yards.
Cantanzaro became Clemson's all-time leading scorer against the Wolfpack with 331 points, passing Aaron Hunt, who had 329 points from 2000-03.
"It's not just my record, it's everyone on the kicking team's record, but it feels pretty cool," Cantanzarro said.
Battle ejected
Clemson back-up offensive tackle Isaiah Battle was ejected in the fourth quarter for punching N.C. State safety Jarvis Byrd after a play was over.
"That's really, really disappointing," Swinney said. "That's not Clemson. That's a lesson for everyone one of those guys in the locker room. I will say this, he took ownership and apologized in the locker room and that won't happen again, I can assure you of that."
Cooper's knee just fine
The miraculous recovery of Clemson tight end Sam Cooper continued against N.C. State as the Brentwood, Tenn., native made his first reception of the season.
Cooper, who suffered a knee injury (torn ACL) during the Tigers' spring game in April, caught an 11-yard TD pass from Tahj Boyd in the second quarter.
Cooper had surgery on his knee just 19 weeks ago and wasn't expected to be ready to play this early in the season.
Saved by the whistle
The home crowd's sound rose in cheers, then turned to boos when they realized a big play was stunted by Clemson's thrifty use of timeouts.
In the first quarter, a sideline timeout prevented Clemson's short 3rd-and-15 gain that would have brought on the punt team; after the timeout, receiver Sammy Watkins caught a ball for 16 yards and a first down.
The next instance was even bigger.
Boyd threw toward Bryant, and was intercepted by Juston Burris, who appeared to be headed easily for the end zone. But whistles were blown before the snap, thus denying the pick-six.
Shuffle the deck
After a dismal opening drive on which he allowed two sacks, right tackle Gifford Timothy was yanked in favor of sophomore Shaq Anthony.
When that didn't work, sophomore Isaiah Battle went in at left tackle, moving Brandon Thomas to the right side. Kalon Davis also entered at left guard, and the first drive with Davis and Battle yielded Clemson's first touchdown.
Williams catching on
Highly touted freshman wide receiver Mike Williams had his most significant catch of his young career against N.C. State.
Williams hauled in a 25-yard reception on a 3rd-and-4 play that gave the Tigers a first down and ended with a 45-yard Cantanzarro field goal.
Williams, who was the 27th-ranked high school wide receiver in the nation by Rivals.com a year ago, caught two passes for 18 yards last week against South Carolina State.
David Beasley injured
Clemson starting offensive guard David Beasley injured his ankle in the fourth quarter.

Here's The Anna Dello Russo X H&M Collection (It Looks Like Stuff Snooki Would "Design")
Editor-about-town Anna Dello Russo has "collaborated" with H&M on a line of accessories (here's the promo video) that are nakedly intended to catch the attention of street style photographers. Since Dello Russo isn't exactly a big name stateside (outside fashion circles, that is) we wonder if this collection will sell out as quickly as Marni or Versace. The pieces hit H&M locations earl-yOctober and range from $24.95 to $299. Here's a sampling.

It is possible that the main title of the report Hepatorenal Syndrome is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report.
Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is a form of impaired kidney function that occurs in individuals with advanced liver disease. Individuals with hepatorenal syndrome do not have any identifiable cause of kidney dysfunction and the kidneys themselves are not structural damaged. Therefore, hepatorenal syndrome may be referred as a "functional" form of kidney impairment. In fact, if the kidney of an individual with hepatorenal syndrome were to be transplanted into an otherwise healthy individual, it would function normally. Hepatorenal syndrome is classified into to two distinct types. Type I is a rapidly progressive condition that leads to renal failure; type II does not have a rapid course.
Although the hepatorenal syndrome occurs in individuals with liver disease, the exact cause of the condition is unknown. Researchers have noted that blood circulation is abnormal in individuals with hepatorenal syndrome. The arteries that circulate oxygenated blood from the lungs to the rest of the body (systemic circulation) widen in contrast to the arteries of the kidney, which narrow causing a decrease in the blood flow through the kidney. Many affected individuals also have high blood pressure of the branches of the portal vein (portal hypertension), the main vein that carries blood from the intestines to the liver.

Scott encourages teens to "find their greatness"
ANSLEY - - JoAnn Scott has had a passion for sports for as long as she can remember. The 1982 Ansley High School grad excelled in several sports in high school, and went on to compete at UNK. It was there that she would fall into a random "job" that would shape the rest of her life. Monday morning Scott returned to her alma mater of AHS where she addressed the 7-12 students about her experiences. Her presentation was not one of simply listing accomplishments - rather it was a call for the students to never give up on their dream. As a student athlete at the University of Nebraska - Kearney, Scott began working for some of the coaches. For this young woman who was a self-admitted sports junkie, it was a perfect fit. After college, she moved to Colorado and went to work for a brokerage firm. While it was a good job, it wasn't long before Scott says she realized that was not the right career for her. She began searching the local classified sections of the newspaper for help wanted ads and ran across one that peaked her interest. It was a job with USA Basketball; she applied and was hired for a secretarial position. Though that was not the type of work she was looking for, it got her in the door of a place she knew she wanted to be. Scott says in her early days at USA Basketball she had a very good mentor, and attributes much of her success to that relationship. She compared that mentorship to the relationship between teachers and students in a small school like Ansley, telling the students that while they may not realize it now, their small school is a benefit. "Here you are not just a number - your teachers know you. And having that one-on-one education is an advantage," said Scott. A year after beginning her job with USA Basketball, she was sent to Georgetown to manage a training camp. In 1992, she had an opportunity to work with the "Dream Team" and traveled all over the world with the team. She says that was a great learning in experience. She shared about rides on the team bus, and sitting in the fourth seat with an empty seat between her and Coach K. "I sat in the fourth seat because throughout the bus ride players would come up and sit in the empty seat to ask the coach questions, and I wanted to hear what they were asking. These were the 12 greatest basketball players in the world - maybe of all time! I learned if they could ask questions, I should never be afraid to ask questions." Scott worked for USA Basketball for 10 years, when she took a job with the Nike corporation. She is now a marketing executive with Nike, where she has been for the past 16 years. She and her team created a special campaign for the 2012 Olympics, which she takes to heart and was the theme of her message - "Find Your Greatness." She showed videos of several of the advertisements they came up with during that campaign and talked about how the team worked together to develop ads, apparel and marketing strategies that would appeal to young people. She says to achieve that they shared real stories rather than so much scripted material. The goal, says Scott, was to encourage young people - like these students - to embrace their stories and share them. "Don't ever sell yourselves short - you can do anything." At the conclusion of her presentation, Scott fielded a few questions from both students and staff. One question in particular, from Ansley Principal Lance Bristol, brought out a great deal of emotion in Scott. The questions was, "if you could go back and change anything about your high school experience, what would it be?" Scott thought about the question for a moment before answering. "I wish I would have stood up to those who were bullying some of my classmates." Wiping away tears, Scott continued. "It was really terrible you guys. You need to go to people's defense. Trust me, if you don't you will regret it later. I empower all of you to step up and find your greatness - and bullying is not your greatness." While she says most of us will never be professional or Olympic athletes, "there is a greatness in all of us."

ScoresAndOdds.com have really gone to town over recent months in that their website seems to have even more features every time yo go back to it. I visited the website only the other day to look at the latest NFL scores and I thought I had visited another website by mistake. I can't believe how they are always raising the bar in terms of quality content which is having the effect of leaving all of the other similar sites in its wake.
As usual when I visit ScoresAndOdds.com I end up staying on the website for far longer than I intended and this visit was no exception to the rule. It took me a couple of minutes to get hold of the NFL scores that I needed and what took my eye this time was the betting trends section of the website.
The data provided for the section of ScoresAndOdds.com is provided as you would expect by Sports.com and it goes without saying that it really is top notch information. It shows you you at a glance where the money is going in relation to a wide range of sports betting, not just NFL. I'll warn you now though, when you bring this part of the website up you are greeted by a screen full of numbers and even I was taken aback and thought to myself, this is far to much information for me. However, when you sit down and start to take it all in it all starts to make sense and toy begin to realize how the information that is offered to you can really send your betting results up to the next level.
I advise you to take a look at the far right hand side of the screen and take notice of the betting trends and in particular the money part of the betting trends. This will show you in terms of percentage how much the money which is being put down is affecting the line. This information is absolutely invaluable to the sports betting investor and for the life of me I cannot see how ScoresAndOdds.com are able to offer this service at no charge and also taking into account that the information is probably going to be used to win money off one of the sports books in their group, notably Sports.com as that is the website that is most commonly linked from ScoresAndOdds.com.
As well as the betting trends you really need to take a look at the other information that is offer, you are usually transferred to a different website bit they are all part of the same group. You will spend ages on each different section of information, I guarantee it, but somewhere that always fascinates me is the sport picks section. I dare you not to get excited when you study some of the latest results from the handicappers on there. Some of these sports picks are free but it looks like the majority you have to pay for but when you take into account the results you will not only understand why they charge but you will be begging them to take your money, and no, I am not exaggerating.
Even though these sports tips that are on offer really are top class it is easy to let your imagination run away with you and it is easy to get seduced into thinking how much money you will be able to make and what you are going to do with it. What then sometimes happens is that someone will sign up to one of these sport picks services and place a large bet on the first selection. Unfortunately these sport picks to lose sometimes and if you have placed a large bet on the first pick and it loses the chances are you will be absolutely devastated. The reason being that you acted way out of your comfort zone and wagered far more than you could possibly afford to lose, just because the lure of easy money could not be resisted.
You will be back to looking at the NFL scores on the ScoresAndOdds.com website thinking of what might have been, I hate hearing stories about this happening because it really could have been so very different if the whole thing was approached in a completely different way.
It is often the case that there is nothing at all wrong with the Sports picks. Nobody gets it right all of the time, any sports picks should be viewed over the long term and if you are able to gear yourself up for that you will see that this is where the big profits and the stuff of your dreams lie.
When someone starts receiving sports picks, the last thing that they want to hear is that they would be well advised to paper trade first. They want the money and they want it now. I'm telling you that you should paper trade for at least one month at the absolute minimum, in fact I would recommend 3 months paper trading but many people find that idea unthinkable.
Only when you have satisfied yourself that the sport picks meet your requirements should you start to place real bets and even then you should keep the bets small. If you take these steps you could well go on to make some excellent profits but if you rush in it will be you looking at the NFL scores on ScoresAndOdds.com, dreaming of what might have been.

Salary Survey 2011: Half Full or Half Empty?
In Spite of Relatively Steady Conditions, Respondents to Our 2011 Salary Survey Don't Feel the Love, and They're Grumpy About it
|Nancy Bartels is Control's managing editor. You can her at email@example.com or check out her Google+ profile.
This year is the twenty-first time we've surveyed our readers about their salary, benefits, working conditions and the state of the process automation industry as they see it. In many respects, the responses are remarkably similar from year to year. In spite of economic turbulence, salary numbers, bonuses paid, hours worked and general conditions have remained steady or slightly improved. Even many of the complaints seem the same from year to year.
How Big a Piece of the Pie?
In spite of economic anxiety and some frustration, process automation is still, comparatively speaking, a well-paying gig. Seventy-six percent of our respondents have a gross annual salary of more than $60,000 a year, about the same as last year. A little more than half of those (35%) earn more than $100,000. That's up 8% over last year (Figure 1). This seeming anomaly may be explained by the fact that every year, the age of our respondents goes up, meaning they get higher on the seniority level. This year, 60% of our respondents were over 45. Last year, only 53% were there.
Raises—or lack thereof—are a pain point for many of our respondents. A whopping 83% reported a raise of $4000 or less this year, and 36% said they got less than $1000—if they got a raise at all. That's better than last year, when 88% reported small raises, 54% of them less than $1000. On the other hand, a fortunate few took home raises of anywhere from $11,000 to $25,000 (Figure 2).
If the improving economy is ending up in our responders' paychecks anywhere, it's in a bonus. Sixty-six percent got bonuses in addition to salary (up from 57% last year), ranging from under 2% of their salary (24%) to the lucky 18% who got more than 15% of their salary as an extra check (Figure 3).
The type of benefits offered remains pretty much unchanged (Figure 4). Eighty-nine percent of our respondents say they get medical benefits; last year 90% said they did. Dental insurance is actually up to 73% this year, from 71% last year. Company-provided life insurance coverage remains at 75%, and both disability insurance and pension plans are a little better; the number receiving a pension plan is up to 48% this year compared to last (44%), and those with disability insurance also increased four percentage points from 58% last year to 62% this year.
So What's the Problem?
Things are looking a bit better than last year on the overall compensation front—or at least no worse. So what's the problem? A recurring complaint is that pension and 401K plans aren't providing the kind of long-term security people would like, and that health care is costing individuals more and providing less in return. As of last year, many complain that increasing costs eat up any raises they may have earned. As one of our respondents said, "There seems to be downward pressure on wages, and benefits are costing more and/or decreasing. Despite a 6% raise last year, my medical insurance costs increased 4%, and the coverage was not as good."
There's also the sense that, even as the economy is improving, none of that improvement is showing up in respondents' paychecks. As one respondent says, "Employers seemed to take advantage of the recession to lower their bottom lines. Now that jobs and profits are coming back, the wages and benefits aren't."

Prenda Gets Some Tiny Bit Of Good News, As It May Get Out Of Two Critical Cases
from the walking-the-tight-rope dept
Perhaps the legal experts here can fill in the specifics about this one. I believe that the judge could continue to seek sanctions from Team Prenda if she feels it's appropriate, or if something improper happened, but it seems a lot less likely that this will happen now that Nguyen/Syfert have effectively bowed out of the case. Considering how deeply interested in the specifics the judge in this case had been, this is unfortunate. Yes, we already have Judge Wright's ruling on a similar matter in California, but having other courts come to the same conclusion seems like it would be useful.
Then we have the other Prenda case in Northern California, where the judge had become curious as to who exactly had signed a form on behalf of "Salt Marsh," ordering the original document to be produced. Last week, Paul Duffy claimed ignorance and tried to throw Brett Gibbs under the bus (again). Meanwhile, former Prenda paralegal/claimed boss of AF Holdings/Ingenuity 13, Mark Lutz, suggested that he had signed "on behalf of Salt Marsh" but no longer had the original. The judge could have dug deeper on that, but apparently has decided to let it go, saying that the question about Salt Marsh was "substantially complied with" and is ending the case.
Because AF's counsel has now substantially complied with the Court's order, the Court sees no basis to continue deferring a final judgment.That means that particular case will also be closed. So, assuming the Florida case is similarly closed, that will leave the Judge Wright ruling in Central California as the only main battleground concerning the overall nature of Prenda's antics over the past few years.
