FLOWERY BRANCH — Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan is 2-5 as a starter against the New Orleans Saints.
Ryan won his first meeting against them, a 34-20 victory in his rookie season of 2008. He also engineered a 27-24 overtime road victory over the Saints in 2010.
He didn't play in the second game against them in 2009 because of a turf-toe injury.
To prepare for the 3-5 Saints, Ryan watched them throttle Michael Vick and the Philadelphia Eagles on "Monday Night Football."
"Then, I got back in here on Tuesday and watched on the coaches' copy on film," Ryan said. "They blitzed and did a really good job of creating pressure. It's something I expect we'll probably see a bit of this week."
Here's a brief Q&A involving Ryan and The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's D. Orlando Ledbetter.
Q: Do the Falcons have to run the ball successfully against the Saints to win?
A: I think it's just how the game shakes out. Anytime that we can run the football and get (Michael Turner) going and our offensive line going, it helps us play well.
Q: How do you rate the Saints safeties Roman Harper and Malcolm Jenkins?
A: Roman Harper is a physical guy. He'll come down (into the box). He likes to mix it up in the run game. They do good job of blitzing both of those guys, actually. In coverage, they are both athletic.
Q: Did defensive end Cam Jordan flash at you during your film study?
A: I think he has like six sacks. I think he had three last week. He's a guy that is playing well. I think he's coming into his own, a younger guy who is probably becoming more confident.
Under the guidance of now-suspended coach Sean Payton and quarterback Drew Brees, the Saints have dominated Mike Smith's teams over the past four seasons, including an embarrassing 45-16 flogging at the Superdome last season.
Brees, who was left in that blowout to break Dan Marino's 27-year-old single-season passing mark, is on the hot seat for this game.
While the Falcons lead the overall regular-season series 45-40, Brees has guided the Saints to a 8-2 mark. The Saints have won three of the past four meetings and 10 of the past 12.
Brees, a six-time Pro Bowler, is having another strong campaign. He has competed 209 of 342 passes for 2,549 yards, 22 touchdowns and eight interceptions. His passer rating is 95.8.
"Drew is Drew," Saints interim coach Joe Vitt said. "Drew has prepared well all year long. Drew loves playing this game. Drew loves preparing for these type of games. Drew is doing great."
The Falcons don't consider revenge as a motive for wanting to take down the Saints, who are 3-5 and reeling from the "Bounty Gate" scandal.
"That's what they chose to do," defensive tackle Jonathan Babineaux said. "We were playing the game the way it's supposed to be played, and they were playing the game the way it's supposed to be played. We didn't see any harm with what they did last year."
Vitt believes the Saints leaned on Brees too much early in the season. He plans to balance the offense by using their three running backs: Mark Ingram, Pierre Thomas and Chris Ivory.
"For the first time this past week, we really dedicated ourselves to finding a role for these guys and (did some) game-planning to their strengths," Vitt said. "To be quite frank, they were under-utilized early in the season. We have settled into a package where we can get all three of those guys those touches and their looks and be positive with it."
Saints tight end Jimmy Graham has been a matchup nightmare for the Falcons.
Last season, he caught seven passes for 82 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' 26-23 win at the Georgia Dome. In the second meeting, at the Superdome in a 45-16 rout of the Falcons, Graham caught four passes for 72 yards and a touchdown.
Linebacker Stephen Nicholas and safety William Moore will have primary coverage responsibilities and will be on the hot seat for this NFC South game.
Graham, who has been slowed by an ankle injury, is coming off a strong game against Philadelphia. He caught eight passes for 72 yards and a touchdown.
Graham also dropped a pass and has seven drops this season.
He had a breakout season in 2011, with 99 catches for 1,310 yards and 11 touchdowns. He has 38 catches for 387 yards and five touchdowns this season, despite missing a game with an ankle injury.
"Jimmy Graham is practicing well," Saints interim coach Joe Vitt said. "Jimmy Graham played last week. Jimmy Graham is fine."
This is the second big assignment for Nicholas and Moore. They held Dallas tight end Jason Witten to seven catches for 51 yards last week.
"I thought (Nicholas) did a nice job in the game taking charge of the tight end," Falcons defensive coordinator Mike Nolan said.
Linebacker Curtis Lofton, who led the Falcons in tackles over the past three seasons, thought he would be with the team for a long time.
But when the Falcons balked at paying market value for a linebacker they thought struggled in pass coverage, he left to sign a five-year $27.5 deal with rival New Orleans Saints.
"He's a player that plays really hard and with tenacity," Falcons defensive tackle Jonathan Babineaux said. "He's a great linebacker who takes on any challenge that comes his way."
Other connections include:
The Falcons' run defense is coming off two strong performances, in which the team held the Eagles (92 yards) and the Cowboys (65 yards) to under 100 yards rushing.
The Falcons have climbed from 28th against the run to 24th, and the continued improvement of second-year middle linebacker Akeem Dent is a factor.
"I thought Akeem played a good game (against Dallas)," Falcons defensive coordinator Mike Nolan said. "He did a nice job. The atmosphere of a Sunday night, Dallas Cowboys, lots of noise, (but) a lot going on didn't disrupt him. He was very much into the game. I was really pleased. His (position) coach, Glenn Pires, said the same thing."
The Saints will try to unleash their three-headed running back monster of Pierre Thomas, Chris Ivory and Mark Ingram. In their win over the Eagles on Monday night, the Saints had 25 rushes and 27 pass attempts.
Ivory, who was wasting away on the bench over the first seven games, had 10 rushes for 48 yards and a touchdown. Ingram had seven rushes for 44 yards and Pierre Thomas had six for 44 yards.
"They bring some uniqueness to the table," Saints interim coach Joe Vitt said. "While they are all productive and kind of the same, they all have a little niche. So moving forward, we just have to make sure that we keep them involved in the offense."
Some contend that Ingram, the 2009 Heisman Trophy winner and a first-round pick (28th overall), has been a disappointment.
"Mark Ingram, we believe is an elite back, who after having some offseason surgery is starting to come around," Vitt said.

Lofton doesn't look too happy to be an Ain't in that picture. And he won't find this week very funny either. As Rowdy#84 said, "I don't like anything about the Aints!" Tomorrow we get some payback. Coons roll up 500 yards of total offense on this D…so sorry Curtis. RISE UP!

And while I don't mind the Ain't hating and bashing by Rowdy and crew (I would worry if ANY Coon fan or player didn't feel that way) I REALLY wish he would not predict 16-0. Stay focused Falcons. 1 game at a time is a cliche…that is very true. Besides 16-0 ain't $hit without those last 3 wins in the tournament

There is no better rivalry than with the Aints. I read an ESPN arts that said this is a fairly recent rivalry because the teams were so bad for so long. That's not true. I've hated the Aints as long as I can remember, always hated seeing, I think it was Charlie's marching Aints. In Georgia, we hate them!

I think it's pretty simple this week: we have to get some pressure on Brees. If we don't/can't, he'll do what he does, i.e. complete about 30 passes. Then it will be a shoot-out, which we definitely don't want. I'm most concerned about not having Spoon tomorrow. Nicholas is a bit stiff in coverage, and Peterson has slowed a bit the past few years, so I'm worried about backs coming out of the backfield, and also the TE.

Nicholas and Peterson aren't on crutches, they'll be ok. We did a great job on Witten in the Dallas game but again Romo is no Brees. Brees has averaged 26 completions per game thus far in 2012.
Even in your shoot out scenario we are able to go toe to toe with the Caints. I think we are going to pile on some rushing yardage too. The Caints will score points but more importantly we will score more than them…………..that's a W……!!!

Do you have a man crush on the saint's play caller, cause man you really went out of your way to bring us up on this guy. If I was just moving here from another state I would be a little confuse in reading your article,as to played for what team. All the stats on the saint's play caller leave me to believe that Matt Ryan and the Atlanta Falcons don't have a chance in He!!, of going to NO and winning. But the way I see this team playing I strongly believe they will win and in good fashion, a few saint's will be taken off the field.

This game is the amateurish at best. The game play is bad , unintuitive, and graphics are plain bad. The only reason I played this game is because it came free with my PS2 . Dont waste your money on this.
Very nice game.....! Gameplay is very good, I like the storyline that is amazing part of game. U will get chance to play as a Chandragupta....!
sometimes graphics are lagging but it is only in few & selected shots but for rest of the time it is simply amazing....!!!
If you want to play a game as a "Great Indian Hero" with good storyline, lots of strategies, fighting, wars then go for it...!!!
Yes,'AVERAGE' thats what one can judge it even if she/he likes it.The only things that help it to be judged as AVERAGE are its gameplay in 1,7&8 level and intresting videos between levels.Everything else is below average.The remaining levels are very streched and boring.
NOT AT ALL VFM FOR ONE WHO LOVES HIS MONEY. & I did not buy this from flipkart
The Graphics are not satisfactory.
The game is very short as I ended this game in just continuous play of 2 hours.
I only recommend this game to kids under 10 years or who is new to PSP gaming.
For gamers like me,this game sucks and buying this game is totally waste of money......

Donald Glover talking about the comments he received during his campaign to be the next Spider-Man (x)"I was talking about it with Dan Eckman, who directed my Bonfire video. Can you imagine that trailer? That would be dope. Like it makes sense… a poor black kid in Queens. Like it just fits."
wow this just broke my heart a little bit
you know what despite the many headaches Donald Glover gives me with his kool-aid sipping tendencies at the end of the day he still black and he still goes through what we go through. Like we all have to live under white supremacy, we're all running the same race and jumping the same hurdles it's just that he got tripped up on the ones that told him he could buy his way outta being black by just accepting causal racism but like moments like this really reveal that's he's just as vulnerable to racism as an "enlighten" black person is.

SAN DIEGO – March 6, 2012 – The country's fixation with the Rush Limbaugh controversy continues unabated, nearly a week after the conservative radio talk show host ripped into Georgetown University law school student Sandra Fluke following her comments favoring government funding for contraceptives care during a congressional hearing called by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
With nothing else to talk about, how else are people going to fill up their Facebook pages and Twitter streams? Apparently the Kardashians aren't doing anything interesting. The awards season is over. "American Idol" is pretty boring this year, and we still have a week before March Madness. And really, the only people who care about Super Tuesday are… uh, I'll get back to you on that one.
Besides, isn't it much easier and more fun to talk about who's a slut and who's not, whether Bill Maher and Ed Schultz are ruder than Rush, what the women on "The View" and Stephen Colbert think, and whether Rush should be fired for what he said?
There is only one reason anyone who supports the right to freedom of speech in America should want Limbaugh off the air.
Limbaugh should get canned for the same reason other people in the media get canned: crummy ratings and poor revenue. Stop getting all hot and bothered about who's advertising on Rush's show and who isn't. Stop listening, and you won't have a clue what companies run commercials on Limbaugh's show. Their products and services will fall in the advertising forest with no one there to hear them. Companies will not put up with this for long.
Just like Dorothy in "The Wizard of Oz" always had the power to return home to Kansas, you have always had the power to take Rush Limbaugh off the air – or not. It has nothing to do with time wasting boycotts or Twitter campaigns.
Every listening device I'm aware of has this marvelous feature called an OFF button and everyone is permitted to use it, no license necessary. The minute there are no listeners for the advertisers to reach, they will leave, for a far more important reason than language. They will leave due to a good business decision.
The public discussion about Limbaugh is raising his visibility and his ratings. If you exercise your right not to listen, and you aren't talking about him anymore, Limbaugh's ratings will plunge. Advertisers will rethink their investment. Local radio stations will replace his show with something that draws a bigger audience. Limbaugh's show will die a well-deserved natural death. El Rushbo can exit and work on his golf game.
Al Franken and Glenn Beck both lost their shows for the same reason: terrible ratings. It's the same reason Conan O'Brien is now on TBS and Don Imus is on Fox Business Network: bad ratings, not boycotts. It is the natural and democratic way of the media business.
Footnote: Imus was seemingly fired for a racially insulting remark, but the truth is Imus had lost one third of the stations that carried his show in the 18 months (from 90 affiliates down to 60) prior to getting canned by CBS. Imus subsequently sued for wrongful termination and won a multi-million dollar settlement.
Rush Limbaugh should not lose his show over anything he said about Sandra Fluke, or anyone else. People of any political persuasion should not be fired for what they say, particularly not in an environment where outrageous statements are encouraged and often applauded.
The American advertising industry as a whole isn't exactly concerned with good taste. Advertisers are concerned with effectively reaching an audience for the least investment possible. If decorum and political correctness were an issue for most advertisers, there would be no such thing as "The Real Housewives" or "Keeping Up With The Kardashians."
If the public thinks the disappearance of a few dozen advertisers out of the hundreds of thousands of companies with advertising budgets will force radio stations across the country to drop Limbaugh's show, it's not going to happen.
Limbaugh's available inventory of commercial time is by its nature a finite commodity. If you're selling cars, when sales go up you manufacture more cars. Not the case with radio airtime. You get three hours daily of Limbaugh's show and that's it.
The boycott has opened up time for other companies who desperately want to reach Limbaugh's adult conservative male audience among his 15 million listeners, and they will snap the ad time right up. This audience watches less and less television and listens to less music radio. They are instead spending time online or gaming. Limbaugh's show is one of the few places to reach them other than sports. Advertisers are not going to give up this opportunity.
Limbaugh has every right to be an idiot on the air. So does every other American. You and I have every right to turn off the radio, or boycott his advertisers, or not.
When someone says something that offends, angers or just plain irritates me, I change the station. It is the most powerful action I can take. Meanwhile, I enjoy programs that would offend others. Take a look at Snoop Dogg's GGN News online, for example. It's a choice I want to have control over as an American. I don't want to concede it to anyone else. It's a choice I defend for you as well as for me, a choice I encourage you to exercise.

'tis the season to be snacking and wrapping! so after you've enjoyed a bag (or two) of your favorite popchips flavors, re-use the bags to add a little 'pop' to your holiday packages. just follow these easy steps…
you will need:
- empty bags of your favorite popchips flavors (one 3oz or 3.5oz bag is enough for one bow and ribbon for one medium-sized gift box)
- scissors
- ruler
- glue
- tape
1. enjoy snacking and sharing on our limited time holiday popchips flavor – salted caramel
2. cut the empty bag along the seams so you have one flat sheet
3. measure and cut 13 strips: four 1×6, four 1×5, and five 1×4. set one of the 1×4 strips aside (this will become the center of your bow)
4. cut the rest of the bag into inch wide strips and set aside (this will become the ribbon)
5. twist each short strip into a loop by lining the ends up together and stapling. you should end up with four loops of each the 1×6, 1×5, and 1×4 strips. twelve loops total
6. glue two loops of the same size (i.e. two 1×6 loops) together to make a figure eight shape. you should end up with two 1×6 figure eights, two 1×5 figure eights, and two 1×4 figure eights
7. criss-cross the two 1×6 figure eights to look like a bow and glue together. add tape if necessary to secure them together. repeat with the 1×5 figure eights and then with the 1×4 figure eights. you should now have three bows, descending in size
8. glue the little bow into the medium sized bow alternating the loops of each one. then glue the medium sized bow into the larger bow, again alternating the loops of each.
9. using the 1×4 strip you set aside make a circle by holding the ends together and taping. glue down this circle into the very middle of your bow.
10. using the long strips you set aside to create the ribbon around your gift by taping them down around the sides.
11. tape your bow on top and rejoice in your creative accomplishment!

SPOKANE -- It took some late-game heroics from Kevin Torres and Ryan Cordell, but the Spokane Indians escaped with a 2-1 win over the Tri-City Dust Devils in front of 5,190 fans.
Cordell added three hits to push his average up to .267, including a long double to centerfield field to score Torres from second in the bottom of the eighth inning. Just one batter before, Torres - who's hitting .342 in his past ten games - hit home Janluis Castro to tie the ballgame.
Right hander Kelvin Vasquez shined in the start, throwing a season-high 84 pitches in six innings of work. He gave up one run after catcher Joe Jackson dropped a ball at home plate, which resulted in the earned run. Vasquez gave up four hits and struck out eight. He now leads Spokane with 32 strikeouts on the season. John Straka relieved Vasquez in the seventh and pitched two innings of one-hit ball earning the win. Keone Kela, making his Indians debut, pitched a scoreless ninth inning to earn the save.
The Indians now head to Hillsboro for five straight against the Hops, then will return home next Tuesday, July 23rd, for a quick three-game homestand against the Vancouver Canadians to start the second half of the Northwest League season.

The ghost-tastic flick "The Apparition" has had its release date pushed from 2011 to an unnamed date in 2012. No reason has been released for the push but seeing how it's directed by Todd Lincoln who's previous credits include visual effects on "From Dusk Till Dawn" and stars a bunch of teenage extras from other movies I'm guessing they want to put it up against "Avatar 2" just to F with the man.
People seem to be getting sick of 3D movies and paranormal flicks but how could you fail with a paranormal 3D joint? The answer is you can't. "Paranormal Xperience 3D" revolves around a group of teens (awesome!) trapped in a town being terrorized by an evil doctor. If the twist at the end of this is that the doctor is a ghost then putting the word "paranormal" in the title might of been a bad idea.
Little known fact, they have TV's in New Zealand. I know I was shocked too! Not only that they apparently have their own shows. Like "The Tribe" which is about group of people who have lived through a virus that's killed off most of Earth's population and how they deal with robots and giant locusts. Sounds pretty good already but it's being adapted for the big screen here in the US so we're going to make it even better. You're welcome Kiwi's!
My wife and I have agreed that no matter what sex our seventh child is we will name him or her Shia LaBeouf. That's just how big of fans we are. So we're both pumped to find out that he will star in a new big screen adaptation of Joe Hill's, son of Stephan King, novel "Horns". The basic plot is LaBeouf wakes up after a night of boozing to find he's sprouted horns. I don't get the title.
Some people who come into a large sum of money go nuts and just spend it all. But this guy in Ohio wasn't going to let his big bank robbery score go to his head. No he hopped on the bus and headed home, not even springing for a cab. Of course he was immediately caught but still, his heart was in the right place.
Residents of Bennington Vermont are living in fear after a number of residents have been attacked but one lone gray squirrel. One shoveler was attacked tree times but the little bushy tailed rat and a number of other reports have been filed. What do you have to say about this crap, PETA? That's what I though.
If you get a chance this morning, DIGG our Corey Haim Rapping video and help us out! Now, on to today's news...
New "Final Destination 4" pics surfaced today. Does this signal the beginning of the hype-train for this one? Don't forget it's in glorious 3D, which means lots of heads and guts flying at your face. Ahhh, good times.
New "Whiteout" still, from the thriller starring Kate Beckinsale. Basically she's an FBI agent hunting a serial killer in Antarctica, right before the sun is about to set for 6 months. So yes, probably the least original story in the world at this point. And with the cold weather, I'm guessing we won't be seeing any leather body suits, either.
Todd Lincoln to adapt the comic "The Nye Incidents" for Dark Castle. Lincoln is currently working on Universal's adaptation of "Hack/Slash". So what's "The Nye Incidents" about? A children's television scientist who goes apeshit and kills all the world's children? I kid, I kid. It's actually about a "medical examiner on the hunt of a killer of alien abductees". Sounds pretty great, actually, although I still want to see my interpretation make it to the big screen.
Brad Dourif will be returning as the voice of "Chucky" in the upcoming remake of "Child's Play". Other than that news, all is quiet on the that front, so we'll give you more when we hear it.
"All The Boys Love Mandy Lane" will be hitting theaters July 17th? That's what Entertainment Weekly is telling us. I'm not seeing if it will be a wide release or not, but is that possible? Guess we'll find out.
You know how we're always saying that once our generation gets to the age where they're running for political office, we're all going to be screwed by incriminating evidence on the internet? Well, it's officially started. Better kiss that career in politics goodbye. (source complete with "ya, that's right" picture, priceless!)
The guy that tried to sell his daughter, famous for her role in "Slumdog Millionaire", denies the reports he requested 300,000$ for her. Unless of course you're interested in paying that much, in that case meet him around back.
90% of captive Koalas in Japan have "Koala-AIDS". Well, that's just depressing, isn't it.
1847: Lewis Keseberg, the final member of the Donner Party still stranded in the mountains, is escorted to safety by a fourth rescue party. Later accounts hold that Keseberg was discovered "seated, like a ghoul, in the midst of dead bodies, with his face and hands smeared with blood, and a kettle of human flesh boiling over the fire."
CC's back, Joe's confused, and we hope you enjoy the new sound!
A movie that has the crew conflicted.

3. Review of OUCS five year vision: 2007-2012
At the beginning of 2007 OUCS produced its five-year plan(see http://www.oucs.ox.ac.uk/internal/5yr/2007-2011.xml). This provided a detailed analysis of the future initiatives and developments within OUCS, listed a series of specific goals and tasks and demonstrated how these took forward the aims and objectives of OUCS linked to the Corporate Plan.
By considering the success we have had in discharging the objectives we are able to demonstrate how effective OUCS has been over the last year:
- Of the 41 key objectives outlined for completion in the last year, 34 were achieved or are part of our ongoing support (see Appendix 1).
- Seven have developed into applications for funding under the emerging ICT Capital Envelope.

I made these biscuits last night and we loved them. For the people that wanted to know where to get candied or (crystallized) ginger...I ordered it from SavorySpiceShop.com. I don't live near a spice store so that is why I ordered it. Greek yogurt is in every supermarket I shop at. I will be making these biscuits again. Thank you Bobbie.

Sorry, I just sent one question about where to buy candied ginger. Also, where can I find Greek-style yogurt? (I really need help!!) Thank you.
By Crystal Newton on November 09, 2010
I have a dumb question! Where do I buy candied ginger? Does Walmart or Food Lion sell it? Whereabouts—spice isle?? (I feel so clueless.) I am not a biscuit maker, although I dearly love sweet potato biscuits. One of my brothers has challenged me to make some for Thanksgiving! :( Send Bobby over to my house, please.
Thank you!

VIRGINIA BEACH - Aaron Rouse loved playing football and being a part of the Virginia Destroyers, the 2011 champions of the United Football League.
He was looking forward to defending the title when, after just four games, the UFL suspended the 2012 season. The league cited a lack of money in making the announcement in October.
Rouse says he and other players haven't been paid the $3,500 a game they were expecting.
Rouse, who played college ball at Virginia Tech and was a safety on the Destroyers, is fed up.
"I'm out here doing this so I can support my family while doing something that I love. It's supposed to be a win-win situation," he says.
The worst part, Rouse adds, is that he gets calls every day from players who can't support their families, who can't find jobs and who've resorted to sleeping on friends' couches.
"To have these guys return home with nothing to compensate them or their families for it is just unthinkable," says Rouse. "Guys just want to be paid for the work that they've done. For the time, work and sacrifice that they have already put in, for the games that they have already played."
UFL Executive Director of Communications Larry Weisman released a statement: "The United Football League continues to work diligently toward resolution of outstanding issues and a resumption of the 2012 season in the spring of 2013."
Rouse doesn't know if or when the money will come in and, even if the season resumes, he says he won't be a part of it.
"I'm grateful for the opportunity the UFL has given me, an opportunity to play in my hometown in front of my hometown supporters. But at the end of the day, this is something I wouldn't want to go through or want my worst enemy to go through," he states.
The UFL has been around for four years and this is the second year it has ended the season early.

I love this mod
I love this mod
Thank you for the mod Mr. Lusted!!!!!!!!
"I wish you'd have given me this written question ahead of time so I could plan for it...I'm sure something will pop into my head here in the midst of this press conference, with all the pressure of trying to come up with answer, but it hadn't yet...I don't want to sound like I have made no mistakes. I'm confident I have. I just haven't -- you just put me under the spot here, and maybe I'm not as quick on my feet as I should be in coming up with one."

Which Actors Are From Scranton, PA
A blend of Noah Calhoun and The Hulk, Jared Padalecki is one of Scranton's favorite actors. Though initially introduced as the more sensitive of the two Winchester brothers on the hit action-horror series "Supernatural," Jared Tristan Padalecki eventually beefed up for later seasons developing a stronger physical build to give him a more imposing presence alongside co-star Jensen Ackles. First appearing on "Gilmore Girls" and in films including "House of Wax," Padalecki has become an icon to the geek set as well as a sex symbol thanks to his work on "Supernatural." Watch him save humanity from both Heaven and Hell on the WB.

It happened Halloween night -- 36-year-old Brian Weathers, a military veteran, was found tortured and shot to death outside of a Mesa home.Police in Tennessee have arrested three man in connection with Weathers' death. These three men were known for being troublemakers and abusing drugs in Tennessee. It's unknown why they were in Arizona, but someone came forward and linked them to the murder in Mesa.18-year-old Brandon Simon, 22-year-old Joseph Holt and 22-year-old Zackary Burgess are accused of shooting Weathers and leaving him to die."I just found him laying in the driveway," said Nancy Boylan, who remembers seeing Weathers' badly injured outside of her daughter's home a couple doors down on Harmony Avenue."I said, well, you better look out your front window," said Boylan.It's not clear where Weathers came from or if his body was dropped off, but the people who own this home near Mesa Drive and the U.S. 60 woke up in the middle of the night to find Weathers in their driveway.Weathers later died at a hospital. Mesa Police say a witness came forward and led them to the three men in Tennessee where local deputies tracked the trio down."The vehicle they happened to be using.. evidence was located to link the homicide here in Mesa back to them," said Det. Diana Williams.The suspects were booked into the Cheatham County Jail on November 18th."Locally, they have burglary charges, theft charges and they've each been charged with fugitive from justice, which is our way of getting them extradited to another state," said CCSO Chief Deputy Wendell Nichols.Residents in Mesa at least have the comfort of knowing Weathers' accused killers didn't come from their own neighborhood or even their state."Yeah, I'm glad," said Boylan.The extradition process has begun, but we're still waiting to find out exactly when the men will be back in Arizona to be formally charged.

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. -- Austin Daye had only one thought when he caught a pass on the right wing on the game's crucial possession.
"Don't pass it. Shoot it," he said.
Not that he had much choice.
With the shot clock running down, Daye made a 3-pointer with 11.5 seconds left, helping the Detroit Pistons seal a 103-97 win over the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday night.
Daye's shot -- after a pressured Tayshaun Prince found him with a pass -- gave the Pistons a six-point lead.
"When I get the ball with time left on the clock, I'm trying to get off a good shot," Daye said. "Tayshaun found me in a good spot and I let it go."
Greg Monroe had 18 points and 11 rebounds for the Pistons, who have won three in a row for the first time this season. Sacramento cut a 16-point fourth-quarter deficit to one, but Detroit was able to hold on.
The Pistons have won five of six, in large part because of terrific play from their reserves. The group scored 44 points Tuesday despite losing Charlie Villanueva to a second-quarter ejection.
DeMarcus Cousins had 21 points and 14 rebounds for the Kings.
The Pistons led 89-73 before Sacramento's late rally. The Kings had a chance to take the lead with Detroit in front 96-95, but the Pistons forced a shot clock violation when Prince blocked a shot.
"We were our own worst enemy. We went real stale offensively," Pistons coach Lawrence Frank said. "We're fortunate to win the game."
Monroe made one of two free throws with 1:26 remaining, and Aaron Brooks turned the ball over at the other end. After Brandon Knight made a free throw, Jimmer Fredette's driving attempt was short. Detroit's Will Bynum made it a five-point game with two free throws.
The Kings would have had one more chance to tie, but just when it looked as if they were going to get a crucial defensive stop, Daye connected for his second 3-pointer of the game.
Fredette scored 13 of his 14 points in the fourth quarter for Sacramento.
"We came back, played hard getting back into the game, and Austin Daye made a huge shot at the end against good defence," Fredette said. "Ultimately came short, so it hurts, but we'll move on to tomorrow."
Knight finished with 20 points despite briefly hurting his right ankle in the second half. Bynum and Daye, two backups, had 15 and 13 points, respectively.
"Everybody chipping in and there is a lot of balance," Knight said. "I have to congratulate my teammates for the way we've been playing together and how guys have been stepping it up and really doing their part."
Villanueva scored nine points before being thrown out for a flagrant foul late in the second quarter. Sacramento's Isaiah Thomas drove the lane and was knocked hard to the floor by Villanueva. Thomas then got up and appeared to swing his right arm quickly at Villanueva. Officials reviewed the play and ejected Villanueva. Thomas was not penalized.
Detroit led by as many as 15 in the second, and it was 58-48 at halftime.
"We were a little slow," Sacramento coach Keith Smart said. "We have been playing at a nice fast pace and we were a little heavy legged but sometimes that happens when you get out here on the first one of a road trip."
NOTES: Official Leroy Richardson appeared to trip along the sideline opposite the scorer's table in the third quarter. After staying down for a while with what looked like a right leg injury, he was able to continue. ... Cousins and Monroe were taken with the fifth and seventh picks of the 2010 draft.
It was Canada's night at the NBA Draft as four players from north of the border were selected.
1. Andrew Wiggins - Cavaliers
8. Nik Stauskas - Kings
18. Tyler Ennis - Suns
45. Dwight Powell - Hornets

Skip to main content
America is the great "melting pot," a rich blend of cultural traditions from all over the world. Many American families can trace their histories to immigrant ancestors who traveled great distances, enduring risk and hardship, to make a home where they would be guaranteed basic freedoms. And for many American families these freedoms came with a struggle. Their parents and grandparents were denied the basic rights we value.
American society was founded on freedom from religious persecution and on tolerance of differences in beliefs and cultural heritage. The differences (or diversity) that come from people from all over the world enrich our culture, bringing new ideas and energy.
Today, more than ever, kids interact with people of differing ethnicities, religions, and cultures. Classrooms are increasingly diverse, reflecting the communities where families live and work.
Some parents welcome the fact that we live in an increasingly diverse society. Others may feel more hesitant, especially if they haven't had much exposure to people different from themselves. Many kids are way ahead of their parents regarding exposure to cultural differences. Their circle of friends, their schoolmates, and their athletic teams are much more varied than those of even a generation ago.
Still, parents should help their kids prepare to live, learn, and work in communities that will become even more diverse. Teaching tolerance is important not just because it is part of our American heritage, but because the person who learns to be open to differences will have more opportunities in education, business, and many other aspects of life.
In short, your child's success depends on it. Success in today's world — and tomorrow's — depends on being able to understand, appreciate, and work with others.
Tolerance refers to an attitude of openness and respect for the differences that exist among people. Although originally used to refer to ethnic and religious differences, the concepts of diversity and tolerance can also be applied to gender, people with physical and intellectual disabilities, and other differences, too.
Tolerance means respecting and learning from others, valuing differences, bridging cultural gaps, rejecting unfair stereotypes, discovering common ground, and creating new bonds. Tolerance, in many ways, is the opposite of prejudice.
But does tolerance mean that all behaviors have to be accepted? Of course not. Behaviors that disrespect or hurt others, like being mean or bullying, or behaviors that break social rules, like lying or stealing, should not be tolerated. Tolerance is about accepting people for who they are — not about accepting bad behavior. Tolerance also means treating others the way you would like to be treated.
Like all attitudes, tolerance is often taught in subtle ways. Even before they can speak, children closely watch — and imitate — their parents. Kids of all ages develop their own values, in great part, by mirroring the values and attitudes of those they care about.
Many parents live and work in diverse communities and have friends who are different from themselves in some (or in many) ways. Parents' attitudes about respecting others are often so much a part of them that they rarely even think about it. They teach those attitudes simply by being themselves and living their values. Parents who demonstrate (or model) tolerance in their everyday lives send a powerful message. As a result, their kids learn to appreciate differences, too.
Of course, celebrating differences of others doesn't mean giving up your own heritage. Your family may have its own longstanding cultural and religious traditions that are something to be proud of. Families can find ways to celebrate differences of others while continuing to honor and pass down their own cultural heritage.
Parents can teach tolerance by example — and in other ways, too. Talking together about tolerance and respect helps kids learn more about the values you want them to have. Giving them opportunities to play and work with others is important as well. This lets kids learn firsthand that everyone has something to contribute and to experience differences and similarities.
Things parents can do to help kids learn tolerance include:
When parents encourage a tolerant attitude in their children, talk about their values, and model the behavior they would like to see by treating others well, kids will follow in their footsteps.

Unemployment and veterans who served since September 2001
March 23, 2009
About 1.7 million veterans have served in the U.S. Armed Forces since September 2001. A large majority of veterans of this era participated in the labor force in 2008, and their unemployment rate was 7.3 percent.
Veterans between the ages of 18 and 24 had an unemployment rate in 2008 of 14.1 percent, nearly double the rate of those ages 25 to 34 (7.3 percent), and almost three times the rate for 35 to 44 year olds (4.9 percent).
In general, these veterans' jobless rates were little different from the rates of nonveterans in the same age group.
The Current Population Survey (CPS) is the source of these data. In the CPS, veterans are defined as men and women who have previously served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces and who were civilians at the time they were surveyed. To learn more, see "Employment Situation of Veterans: 2008" (PDF) (HTML) USDL 09-0271.

Brown faces off with Jaleski
Date: February 17, 2010
by: Kurt Schultheis | City Editor
A recent suggestion by Commissioner Gene Jaleski that the town look into a Vision Plan conducted by Golden Valley, Calif., and consider performing a similar plan upset and frustrated another commissioner last week.
In an e-mail sent to the town clerk for commission distribution Feb. 9, Jaleski asserts the town could assemble a non-political, community-based group to look into the town's future.
Commissioner Jim Brown, who worked on the town's Vision Plan that was accepted by the commission three years ago, called the Golden Valley plan, which addresses only environmental issues, "something that came out of the Sierra Club."
"Longboat Key has done a lot to keep the environment safe, but has continued to ignore the Vision Plan that the citizens spent time, effort and money to establish," Brown wrote in an e-mail to Jaleski dated Feb. 10. "Please take off the rose-colored glasses and respond to the citizens"!
Jaleski responded in an e-mail later that day insinuating the town's Vision Plan "failed to see the light of day" because it wasn't done properly.
In the e-mail, Jaleski also asked Brown to exercise civility.
"It is not necessary to talk down to one another with unnecessary personal attacks or derisive comments about other communities," Jaleski wrote.
But the follow-up e-mail only seemed to frustrate Brown, who responded with another e-mail dated Feb. 11
Brown wrote: "Gene ... Your response just tells me that you have no idea what you are talking about. The Vision Plan that is sitting in the 'commissioners' laps was widely accepted by the voters and the community as a whole. You constantly harp on how much money the town spends on consultants, yet at every commission meeting you suggest some new idea with the need to hire another consultant. Is it okay for you to want consultants but not the rest of the town?"
Brown told Jaleski he hopes Jaleski will bring forward his Vision Plan approach to the commission so it can be decided if it has any support or not.
"If not," Brown wrote, "maybe you could stop putting down the plan we spent two years developing with the input of all the town's citizens and try to support the wishes of the people who put us in office. I don't think anyone has their head in the sand but some may have their head in the clouds! Stop looking for something on the Internet when you already have what you need. No response necessary."

Beautiful Sheets!! WOW! I had forgotten how nice Percale sheets feel - soft, cool, and inviting - perfect for hot summer nights. AND - they actually fit my oversized mattress and topper perfectly!! They launder perfectly and look fresh and fun against an all white comforter. I'll be back for more of these!! May 6, 2013
ordering third set! I have two sets of these sheets and love the bright flowers and colors. I wash on cool and take right out of dryer and have no problems with excessive wrinkling. Once they are stretched over matress there are very few wrinkles. I have found they get softer with each washing. I purchased these because of the 14" pocket. Perfect for our mattress. I noticed the new colors of the Portugal sheets have an 18" pocket. My husband likes these sheets as well and told me to stockup. April 12, 2013
Just So-So Very pretty pattern, and feel soft, but wrinkle badly. January 9, 2013
Beautiful Sheets I received those beautiful sheets a few weeks ago, and I am already planning to purchase another set made in Portugal with a different design. My review differs because I like percale and crisp sheets. If you are looking for a very soft set, you may want to find another product. Those sheets allow me to get a wonderful night of sleep surrounded with colorful flowers. Good product at a reasonable price. I wish shipping was lower though. November 24, 2012
not a good product I bought these after I had bought some others for my daughter thinking they would be just as nice. They were not. After 2nd wash they didnt feel as nice as they were the first time. I have not used them again because they just dont feel as nice. November 14, 2012

Georgia Department of Transportation officials are urging motorists to exercise caution on roadways as the potential for winter weather approaches.
The past several days of rain has made driving treacherous for commuters, and it's making work difficult for county crews dealing with accidents and downed trees.
Crews in Gwinnett County worked in the rain on Thursday as they tried to repair a water main break near Lyle Circle and Collins Hill Road in Lawrenceville. They say it created an 8-foot sinkhole and a motorist drove into it. The female driver was not hurt.
Trees were reported down on roadways in the metro area, making driving a bit of a problem for commuters.
A large tree fell down across Cascade Road in southwest Atlanta, blocking the whole road and bringing down power lines, according to Atlanta police. Georgia Power crews were brought in to restore power to the area.
In DeKalb County, a tree fell down at Old Briarcliff Road at Briar Park Court, temporarily blocking traffic. Crews were able to quickly clear the tree from the roadway.
Georgia Department of Transportation officials say wet roads coupled with dropping temperatures could create several problems during Friday morning's commute.
"Our biggest concern is all this water. It's not snow, really here in Atlanta. We're not concerned about that, the ground temperatures are pretty warm here. What we're concerned about is all this water being on the roadways and then early Friday morning, when the temperatures do drop, we can have ice, especially on the elevated structures," said GDOT's Mark McKinnon.
According to GDOT officials, they have almost 1600 workers ready to go should the roads become impassible in the mountains. or roads ice up in the metro area.
GDOT says motorists should be aware of potentially dangerous situations as the winter weather approaches.
· Bridges, as black ice forms there first and can reform quickly· Highest elevations in North Central and Northeast Georgia· Fallen
trees, with root systems weakened by drought and saturated by recent
heavy rains, the potential exists for strong winds to cause trees to
fall onto or adjacent to roadways· Traffic signals not operating because of power outages· High profile vehicles, as they can be difficult to control in high winds

Samsung's Gear Live comes with a heart-rate monitor and Android Wear OS. Here's what we know so far.
One of the most retro-minded marques in the world of motorcycling has made a big leap into the future with the unveiling of Project LiveWire, its fully-electric concept. We take it for a spin to see if it's something a typical Harley owner might just entertain.

The Backup Plus Fast is an excellent choice for anyone, especially those for those needing lots of storage space or the ability to edit videos on the go.
The new $150 universal remote system swaps a standard clicker for a full-size keyboard, letting you type directly into devices like the Apple TV, Xbox One, PS3, Mac/PC computers, and Roku boxes.
Its high price and imperfect voice control and TV integration keep the Xbox One short of must-have territory, but the inclusion of Titanfall for free (for new purchases) helps Microsoft's console hold the line against Sony's compelling PS4.
Unless you want a Windows RT tablet with cellular connection, skip the Lumia 2520 and get the Surface 2 instead.
With its generously sized screen and smooth performance, the LG Exalt is a top contender in Verizon's line of basic phones.
Sadly, NBA 2K14 is better left on consoles, offering only simple controls for iOS, poorly programmed announcers, and repetitive gameplay.

Light Reflection and Feynmans plane of oscillating charges

In ch 30-7 of the Lectures, Feynman explains that the field of a plane of oscillating charges at a point P is proportional to the velocity of the charges, considered at the appropriate retarded time (retarded by the vertical distance from the point P).
Feynman derives this formula only for large distance but says that it also works for any other distance.
This implies that directly at the plane of the charges, the electrical field is in phase with the (negative) velocity of the charges (and the same is true at a distance of one, two, three... wavelengths).
What is puzzling me is that this does not seem to allow for correct reflection of light.
If I have an incident em wave, this wave accelerates the charges. The acceleration is in phase with the wave (if the charges are sufficiently free as in a metal), so the vleocity of the charges is shifted by 90° in phase (when the acceleration is maximal, the velocity is zero - at the turning point of the oscillation). If the electrical field is in phase with the velocity, then the electrical field created by the plane of charges is phase-shifted by 90°, not by 180° as it should be to cancel the incoming wave.
Probably I'm making a stupid mistake somewhere, just cannot figure out where.
