This game was just about everything that Giants fans feared it would be, suffering a 49-24 thrashing at the hands of the Saints. Last week, the offense had trouble putting up points. This week, the defense was the unit who struggled the most, giving up the second most yards in team history and looking flat and confused for the entire game.
The Giants are now 6-5 on the season and two games out of the NFC East lead. Still, the season still has potential to be salvaged with two huge games against the Cowboys looming after undefeated Green Bay comes into town next week.
Some observations from the game:
-I don't know if Kevin Boothe and Stacy Andrews really make that much of a difference but the offensive line looked much better overall against the Saints. Unlike last week against the Eagles, Eli Manning had enough time to throw and the whole offense looked better as a result. The running game still didn't look very strong but at least they gave Jacobs some holes to work with this week. It's also worth noting that the o-line did not commit any costly holding penalties for what felt like the first time this year. Those have hindered the Giants all season. Need I remind everyone of the one that killed a New York drive in the San Francisco game?
-Hakeem Nicks looked like his old self for the first time in weeks. Look at the screen pass he caught on the Giants' last drive of the first half, where he shook two defenders in order to get a first down. It would appear as if he is finally 100% healthy. So of course he sustained a bruised rib
-I cannot for the life of understand why Kevin Gilbride thinks it's a good idea to try and get Brandon Jacobs to run wide. He may not be the Jacobs of 2008 but he's still somewhat effective when he's putting his shoulder down, plowing people over and getting going downhill, as he did on the touchdown run.
-The Giants' struggles in most aspects have been pretty well-documented but one area where they've been weak but hasn't been talked about much is punt and kick returns. They haven't had much success in gaining a lot of positive yardage after the catch, no matter who is returning punts and kicks. But it looks as if Da'Rell Scott has changed that. Several times he was one broken tackle away from breaking loose.
-After last week's game against the Eagles, Giants fans were understandably nervous about the linebackers defending passes up the middle. Well that concern wound up taking the back seat. Big plays absolutely killed the Giants all night. It felt like that gave up more big plays in this game alone than the rest of the season combined.
-Where oh where has the Giants pass rush gone? They've led the league in sacks for a good part of the year but for the second week in a row, they've gotten minimal pressure on the opposing quarterback. And when the defensive front isn't applying pressure, it really exposes the weakness in New York's secondary, which leads to them giving up the aforementioned big plays.
-For the first time in 23 games, New York did not have a defensive takeaway.
-Giants fans have many reasons to be grateful for Victor Cruz and this game showed why. He (along with Manning) continued to play hard, even when it was clear that the game was out of the Giants' hands. Those are the kind of guys you want on your team. He also showed good awareness by not doing his famous salsa dance celebration after either of his two touchdown catches. Both of those two little things demonstrated that he's a character guy and I'll take that any day of the week. He's only 43 yards away from crossing the 1000 yards receiving mark. Not bad for a guy who wasn't drafted, huh?
He still needs to work on his dropped passes though.
-I'm sorry but the Da'Rel Scott fumble was bogus. His elbow and forearm were clearly down before the ball came loose. I don't know what they refs were looking at on that review. It should've been overturned. I have no other complaints about the officiating in the game otherwise but the Giants losing that challenge stung.

For Information on booking Francis Carter-Hilliard as a speaker call 707 644 2730.
Francis Carter-HilliardFounder of the New Haven, Connecticut chapter of the Black Panther Party, Frances Carter-Hilliard became a leading member of the Party at just age twenty. Her role in the organization quickly assumed greater historical significance when in 1969 federal authorities apprehended members of the New Haven chapter along with Black Panther leaders Bobby Seale and Ericka Huggins on charges of conspiracy to commit murder and kidnapping. The "New Haven" trial, as the landmark case was known internationally, was momentous among the radical left, bringing the support of luminaries such as novelist James Baldwin and playwright Jean Genet. Acquitted of all charges in 1971, Carter-Hilliard served as an outspoken fundraiser for prisoner rights and the Black Panther legal defense fund. Further, her advocacy of women's issues coupled with her leadership position as a Black Panther woman member provides Carter-Hilliard with a distinctive background.

If it flies, drives or saves lives, there's a chance you'll find it in Los Alamitos this Sunday.
The 11th Annual Wings, Wheels and Wings Expo will touch down at the Joint Forces Training Base at 9 a.m.
For about seven hours, vintage and current cars, military, commercial and emergency aircraft and lots food and sales vendors will converge on the airfield.
Tom Lasser, retired Army Lt. Colonel, said that the event he helped found in 2001 has been an "incredible success."
"We started it to showcase the airfield and the base, to bring local citizens on the Joint Forces Training Base, to appreciate what the military does and to get up close and personal with the aircraft," Lasser said.
Lasser, who also handles public relations for the event, said that they'll have helicopters rides for $50 a trip, a flight simulator, a unmanned reconnaissance drone, a silent auction for rides the Goodyear blimp and more than 500 cars.
The event is free and runs from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Lasser advises to get there at least by 9 or attendees will be in line. He said he's expecting at least 35,000 people.
The event will also showcase live music and demonstrations from military and emergency crews.
"The weather looks good so we expect to have some flybys, and we're going to have a paradrop at noon: a World War II era transport that was used at D-Day," Lasser said.

What is the best way to go about finding a financial advisor?
Many individuals are looking for someone who has an accounting background and has familiarity with income and estate taxation. Many consumers are concerned about the inherent conflict of interest concerning recommendations and commissions.
You may want to select an advisor who can provide services you need, based on your financial situation and goals.
Remember that financial advisors offer different types of services and some professionals specialize in certain needs.
Most advisors offer an introductory meeting with you at no cost. This is a chance for you to evaluate the advisor candidate's education, designations and expertise. Advisors with a certified financial planner or chartered financial consultant designations will likely have a broad knowledge of all aspects of financial planning.
An advisor with a chartered life underwriter designation will have expanded study in insurance.
An individual who's a certified public accountant may have a more extensive background in tax issues.
Finally, ask the advisor to discuss compensation with you. How will you pay for the advisor's services and the implementation of your financial plan?
Many advisors today are able to offer their services on a fee basis that may eliminate the potential for a conflict of interest concerning compensation and recommendations.
Marc P. Tomberg is branch manager at Raymond James Financial Services. His office is located in Ryanwood Square at 2140 58th Ave, Vero Beach. He may be reached by phone at (772) 778-4399.

Disposable food containers let you serve your customers the food they want in a container that's just the right size. Choose foil containers for Chinese or Indian food; select big tubs for wings or salad. You can also find small portion containers for food samples so that you can drive interest.
Deliver Food With Ease
Hot food needs an appropriate box, and you can choose foil, paper, or polystyrene boxes in a variety of sizes. Paper food trays act as bases for fries, hotdogs, and burgers, whereas boxes can contain Thai or Indian food. Sauce-heavy foods are better suited for foil, as they won't leave grease over your customers' laps, but wings may be better in lidded polystyrene.
Keep Food Hot
Caterers also need to keep food hot for a long time, so they use chafers. They may use gel fuels to keep the flame under the chafer alight. These fuels can be methanol or ethanol based, or they can use liquid paraffin.
Cold Foods Stay Cold
Insulated containers also keep cold foods, such as ice cream and cheesecake, cold. You can protect your foods from heat with insulated paper containers and polystyrene containers to prevent them from melting. Plastic cups are also useful as they can contain liquids like smoothies and milkshakes, but paper cups offer a slightly more environmentally friendly option.
Use Disposable Pans
Forget the pain of washing up after each batch; disposable pans ensure you can simply cook each item in its own pan so that you don't have to waste time on cleanup. In addition, you don't have to decant each item into its own container.

MSL Rover NX CAD model
You've all seen the artist renditions. This is what Curiosity looks like to an engineer.
A few minutes into our interview last Thursday, I ask Tim Nichols, managing director of Global Aerospace, Defenses and Marine Industries at Siemens, if he was nervous about the Curiosity's fate on Sunday. "Of course I am," he says with a laugh, "We all know about missions to Mars — they're complex." None moreso than Curiosity's elaborate landing sequence, designed to get the SUV-sized robot down safely.
He needn't have worried. Late Sunday night, the rover successfully set down on the Martian landscape, overseen by a tense room of Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) engineers and watched by so many people here on Earth that all of NASA's websites crashed. Like the rest of us, Nichols was glued to his screen. Unlike the rest of us, Nichols gets to say he had a hand in it. His company's software designed Curiosity.
Curiosity is much larger than her unexpectedly long-lived predecessors, Spirit and Opportunity. This meant that she couldn't just land bundled inside airbags like the smaller rovers.
Instead, the mission executed a complex series of maneuvers to eject the robot from its capsule and lower it to the ground, via a rocket-powered sky crane in a sequence of events that NASA called the Seven Minutes of Terror.
Curiosity was designed by the JPL at the California Institute of Technology. When it came time to coordinate the enormous team of designers and engineers that built Curiosity, the capsule, and the sky crane, JPL turned to Siemens. They needed to design the robot (relatively) cheaply and they needed to design it fast — the launch window for missions to Mars comes once every two years. If you miss the deadline, there's a long wait ahead. MSL Capsule with Rover NX CAE thermal model
If you squint, you can see Curiosity and the sky crane folded up together in the capsule.
Luckily, Siemens had developed software suited to this sort of project. They call it Product Lifecycle Management (PLM).
One of the costliest parts of creating a new physical product is building and testing prototypes. With PLM's robust suite of simulators and version tracking, you can avoid a lot of physical prototyping — saving both time and money, and speeding up the development process. In essence, PLM turns the physical engineering of a product into a process that looks more and more like designing code.
PLM runs on a laptop, connected to a central asset manager, called the Team Center. Engineers can check out parts of the project, work on their problems and assignments, and then check it back in to the main branch. This allows for a lot of concurrent design work. "In the past, engineering teams would be somewhat isolated by discipline," says Nichols, "The overall leadership recognized that they needed to bring all the groups together."
This is a far cry from past projects, which would be designed as a series of handoffs between teams. First the thermal profiles would be worked out, then the aerodynamics, on down the line. Propagating changes between teams could become a nightmare. PLM changed all of that, Nichols says, giving the team the ability to "compress the schedule and … do many more design iterations." MSL NX CAD Exploded view of seperation stages
With luck, this is the only exploded view of the Mars lander that we'll ever see.
If this sounds a lot like software engineering, especially the open source variety, it's because it is. There's a version control system, the ability to check code in and out of the system, and a set of test suites that allow you check the performance of your part of the module in relation to the whole. By keeping the objects in software for as long as possible, you can treat them like software, with all of the speed and flexibility that this implies.
Nichols says their suite of tools has been used to design everything from golf clubs — "Golf clubs are pretty sophisticated, though they haven't helped my game." — to aircraft carriers. Looking ahead, he predicts an increasing incidence of distributed international teams of contributors working on a project. "Global virtual collaboration and engineering is really the future," he says. "We want to see more of that."
But first, Curiosity had to make it to Mars. "We all have our fingers crossed," he said on Thursday. You can uncross them now, Mr Nichols.

New App Store rankings account for the things such as frequency of the use and ratings, and according to the report Monday. It appears to be a case because famous, often used apps such as Pandora Radio, Facebook, and Skype experienced important ranking bumps last week.

Among all computer graphics programs the Rater graphics is a data structure that represent usually rectangular grid of pixels, point of color and viewable via a monitor. Raster images can be stored in image files with varying file formats. A bitmap is a format that is used for storage in the display's video memory. It is technically characterized by the height of the image in pixels by the number of bits per pixel. It can also represent a color depth which determines the number of color. In the printing industry raster graphics is also known as Contones. The word raster has been come from the Latin word. It is originally refers to the video monitors which paint the image by magnetically steering a focused electron beam. In other term it also refers to a rectangular grid of pixels. The raster graphics can scale up to an arbitrary resolution without loss of apparent quality.
Word "raster" has the origins in Latin rastrum (rake) that is been derived from the radere (scrape). It referred originally to raster scan of the cathode ray tube video monitors that paint an image by line and by magnetically steering the focused electron beam. And by association, it came to refer to the rectangular grid of the pixels. See rastrum, the device to draw the musical staff lines.
The raster graphics are the resolution dependent and they will not scale up to the arbitrary resolution with no loss of the apparent quality. The property has with capabilities of the vector graphics that very easily scale to a quality of device rendering. The raster graphics deal practically than the vector graphics with the photographs and the photo realistic images, whereas the vector graphics serve much better for typesetting and for the graphic design.

Toro (TTC): "That's a great housing stock and a winner. " Alcoa (AA): "I'm willing to say it'll do well in 2013. It's a horrible commodity until then." Stratasys (SSYS): "That one is up too much. I don't want to be in a tech stock up 100%. " MarkWest Energy Partners (MWE): "What a time for this equity offering to come. This group is too hard to own right now."

Now that the holiday season is upon us Retail Digital revisits some of the most popular stories of 2011
Appearance is everything in the retail world. Retailers must think carefully about the message they want to convey to consumers when designing a shop.
Retail interior design will make a strong statement about a business.
An unusual, interesting and attention-grabbing store is more likely to keep consumers interested and persuade them to linger in-store for longer.
Design elements like colour scheme, music, ambience and layout are all important. A thoughtful design choice will not just make a brand's merchandise more accessible but can even influence the shopper's mood.
There are many stores across the world with this attention to detail, which will completely enhance your retail experience.
Retail Digital brings you a list of the coolest stores in the world.
United Nude Dark Shop
New York
United Nude's high-concept NYC flagship store looks more like a nightclub than a shoe store. United Nude's 'dark shop' concept means that the store is covered in darkness apart from the products that are showcased. It features a computer-controlled LED wall that highlights the United Nude products as a work of art. It is not just the walls that are black but all fixtures and fittings too. This is to emphasise the contrast with the store's illuminated areas.
BBC/Ice Cream
Hong Kong
The Billionaire Boys Club/Ice Cream flagship store in Hong Kong opened its doors in 2007. The store has four levels, which are each 500 square feet. There is a giant rocket on the front of the store, which instantly commands your attention. The rooms are filled with BBC/Ice Cream products, colourful walls and unique ice cream inspired furniture.
Viktor & Rolf
Viktor and Rolf's upside-down store in Milan, which features a welcome mat on the ceiling and grand chandeliers sprouting from the floor, is sure to blow your mind. The traditional neoclassical design has been given a twist and turned on its head...quite literally. Consumers step into a surrealistic world when they visit this unusual boutique. The interior has upside down upended columns, archways and fireplaces. The only thing right-side up is the stunning clothes.
Solange Azagury-Partridge
Solange Azagury-Partridge's exquisite flagship store is located in the exclusive Bond Street area of central London. The two-storey boutique has a private members only feel with its many discreet enclaves, alcoves, padded walls and hidden doors. The black ceiling is adorned with 600,000 Swarovski crystals and the store is covered head to toe in luxurious red velvet. This reflects the 'rock-star' quality of Azagury-Partridge's work.
Apple Opera Store
The Apple Opera store in Paris, which opened last year, is the most beautiful Apple store in the world. The store resides in a building, which was previously an old bank. Restoration efforts took just over a year with Apple deciding to keep the building's original fittings, stunning carved wooden stairs and wrought-iron railings. It has also retained its original mosaic tiled floor, marble columns and central skylight. It is a refreshing break from the retail giant's trademark chrome and glass-stairs look.
Lairesse Apotheek
The Lairesse Apotheek is unlike any other pharmacy you will visit. The apothecary, which specialises in natural and homeopathic medicine, strikes a balance between the natural and synthetic world. This is reflected in the store's design, which features serene hues of green and a tree trunk that seems to hold up the counter. Medicines are arranged in 522 transparent drawers in floor-to-ceiling cases that are fronted in green Plexiglas and have a green backlighting.
Kirk Originals
Kirk Originals eyewear company opened its flagship store in London earlier this year. The store's design breaks away from the clinical white box of many opticians with its dark grey floors and blue-grey painted walls. Kirk Originals' shop window features large lenticular prints of winking eyes. This theme is mirrored in-store with 187 white powder-coated holders featuring life-size eye prints, which can be tilted and repositioned. The store is simplistic yet very striking.
Paul Smith
You cannot miss the Paul Smith store in Los Angeles. It is huge and hot pink. It adds a touch of British quirkiness to the glamour of Hollywood. The store is divided into boutiques that look like film sets: a nineteenth-century Paris apartment and an eighteenth century Avignon chateau. The walls are adorned with a selection of interesting prints and paintings both vintage and contemporary, which are also available to buy in-store.

Georgia Tech's Derrick Favors took ACC rookie of the week honors for the third time this season. The 6-foot-10 forward from South Atlanta averaged 12.0 points and 7.5 rebounds while Tech lost to Duke Thursday and beat N.C. State on Saturday.
Favors had 16 points, eight rebounds and three blocks in Tech's 73-71 over the Wolfpack. In his past two games he made 10-of-12 (.833) field goals.
Favors is tied with Wake Forest's C.J. Harris for the ACC lead in scoring by a rookie (11.3 points per game). He leads all ACC rookies in rebounding (8.5) and double-doubles (7).

Congrats Derrick…Say, can I interest you in another season?
TECH stays ranked too! #20 in AP and Coaches.
February 8th, 2010
4:34 pm
Congratulations, again.
Favors is so smooth he (sometimes) looks slow and some (poorly informed/ignorant) Tech fans use derogatory remarks about his style and/or effort. I'll bet many of those "criticizers" will miss him next year.
February 8th, 2010
4:40 pm
With all of the recent complaints, about Favors and the team in general, by the Yellow Jacket faithful on the AJC blogs, we should remember that he is a freshman. Favors will be ACC Rookie of the Year and we will miss him next year.
February 8th, 2010
4:45 pm
congrats man
February 8th, 2010
5:23 pm
Favors has talent for sure, but let's be honest. If he had to go up against a quality forward in the NBA, it would not be pretty right now. I know he can't improve his draft status very much, but…he could really benefit from another year in the ACC.
February 8th, 2010
5:25 pm
I agree man everone was so tough on Hewitt after the NC state debacle. And we were ahead by a lot of points. Yeah we self destructed, but we were ahead as well. And the blog talked about how bad NC State is. Well in other coferences, you don'thave the tream in dead last at 2-7 haing its wins against Duke and FSU on the road. Acc has a bit tougher competition as you go down the list.
How can you say Hewitt can't coach when our team is in the top 5 naitonally in FG % defense. Thats a national ranking. You don't get there without great coaching. Granted I am unhappy at times on lack of movement on offense. But lets face it, Cremins was no offensive mastermind either. This team really does move a lot more at times and at times the less movement off the ball issue shows up.
Of couse I would want more consistency. Anyone would, including Hewitt. But a lot of the inconsistency is due to lack of expierence or lack of talent. This year we only have lack of experience with so many underclassmen.
Its not like you can't see when certain players get lax defensively. And those of you who say there is no reason to hewitts substitutions…..you are looking at the wrong side of the ball. Hewitt will pull for a defensive blunder much quicker than popping a shot without the offense set.
Remember that HEwitts teams get much better down the stretch and I expect a 4-4 or 6-2 down the stretch. Really any less and we don't make the dance anyway. But its not like you can beat up on the small teams this year.
February 8th, 2010
5:44 pm
Well said Tech Hoops! Im glad someone has some perspective on this team. I dont see Favors leaving just like Gani Lawal and Al-Farouq Aminu, of Wake Forest, didnt leave after last season. Favors has things to work on before moving up.
February 8th, 2010
5:55 pm
Those of you saying Favors needs another year in the ACC are absolutely correct. But he'll still leave because so many NBA teams draft on the basis of "potential." I just hope we see a little more of that "potential" before he bolts.
February 8th, 2010
6:09 pm
congrats Derrick and good luck rest of the way
February 8th, 2010
7:21 pm
I've seen three games on TV, and I have yet to see Favors get the ball 12-15 feet out and make a move to the basket.
The only scores I've seen is when he is out front on a fast break, or with an easy putback. Am I missing something? Please enlighten me. I would be a crying shame if he left for the NBA after this season.
February 8th, 2010
8:47 pm
Congrats to Derrick Favors, Continue to grow and always strive. Push yourself thru adversity and hold your head high. Continue to gain strength and increase your stamina. You are amazingly talented, skillful, educated and humble. Those traits will take you a very long way. Goodluck on your remaining season at GT. Best of luck with whatever you decide to do after this year. God Bless U!!!

Favors would've done better at UGA. Actually, I'm impressed w/ those Dawgs.
February 8th, 2010
9:32 pm
Good post by tech hoops. Still enjoy watching this team, ACC has no bad teams, and there is a lot of hoops left! Go Jackets!
February 8th, 2010
9:40 pm
you mean uga would be better with him, not the other way around.
I'm not sure playing for an unranked last place team in the middle of nowhere is his cup of tea.
