In this Monday, Feb. 3, 2014 photo provided by the Marshall Islands Foreign Affairs Department, a man identifying himself as 37-year-old Jose Salvador Alvarenga sits on a couch in Majuro in the Marshall Islands, after he was rescued from being washed ashore on the tiny atoll of Ebon in the Pacific Ocean. Alvarenga told the U.S. ambassador in the Marshall Islands Tom Armbruster and the nation's officials that he left Mexico in December 2012 for a day of shark fishing and ended up surviving 13 months on fish, birds and turtles before washing ashore on the remote Marshall Islands thousands of miles (kilometers) away.

The family of a Salvadoran fisherman who says he survived at least 13 months at sea in an open boat had thought he was dead after losing touch with him eight years ago and are calling his astonishing story of survival a miracle.
While authorities said questions remained about his tale, relatives provided details that might help explain how Jose Salvador Alvarenga could survive floating across 6,500 miles of the Pacific in a small boat. They said he was always unusually strong and resilient and was an experienced sailor.
"The sea was his thing," Alvarenga's father, Jose Ricardo Orellana, 65, said Tuesday. Orellana, who owns a store and flour mill in the seaside Salvadoran town of Garita Palmera, said his son first went off to work at sea as a stocky 14-year-old.
Alvarenga's family reacted with joy after two phone calls from their long lost son, who told them he was getting medical treatment and food in the Marshall Islands. Alvarenga, who says he is 37 years old, later got a shave and a haircut.
He also confessed to his mother he didn't really know where he was.
Recounting their talks, his 59-year-old mother, Maria Julia Alvarenga, broke into tears.
"We hadn't heard from him for eight years; we thought he was dead already. This is a miracle, glory to God," she said.
The fisherman's 14-year-old daughter, Fatima, said she didn't remember her father, who left El Salvador when she was just over a year old.
"I'm so very happy to know he's alive," said Fatima. "He's alive and I'm going to see him."
Gee Bing, the Marshall Islands' acting secretary of foreign affairs, said Alvarenga also spoke by phone on Tuesday to his brother in Maryland for the first time in years: "He got very emotional."
Bing helped relocate Alvarenga from the hospital to a hotel in Majuro, the capital of the Marshall Islands, on Tuesday.
Constant stream of well-wishers
"He requested that we give him some time to rest. I don't think he got enough sleep at the hospital, and he wanted to rest and also get a haircut," Bing said. "When we dropped him off at the hotel, there was someone there to take him to the barber."
Bing said a constant stream of journalists and well-wishers had flowed into the hospital wanting to talk to Alvarenga and bringing him blankets, pillows, clothes and fruit. He said the hotel had increased its security to try to provide Alvarenga with some privacy.
The official said medical tests indicated Alvarenga was doing well. He was taking vitamins, and Tylenol to ease joint pain.
Bing said that he expected it to take one to two weeks for authorities to finalize Alvarenga's repatriation, and that the Marshall Islands government would likely pay the cost of his stay.
He said questions remained about Alvarenga's story of an ordeal that began with him setting out to fish from a coastal village in southern Mexico, but added that authorities were focusing on getting him back to El Salvador.
Alvarenga's parents said he was known in his hometown as "Cirilo," a nickname that coincides with the first name of a man registered as missing with civil defence officials in the southern Mexico state of Chiapas. The civil defence office said a small fishing boat carrying two men, named Cirilo Vargas and Ezequiel Cordoba, disappeared during bad weather on Nov. 17, 2012, and no trace of them or the craft was found during an intense two-week search.
Discrepancy in dates
Alvarenga said his fellow fisherman, who he identified only with the first name of Ezequiel, died after about a month at sea and he threw the body overboard. Alvarenga said he survived on raw fish, birds, bird blood and turtles before washing ashore on the remote Marshall Islands atoll of Ebon, 10,460 kilometres across the Pacific from the fishing hamlet of Costa Azul, where he set out.
There was no immediate explanation of the discrepancy in dates given by Alvarenga and Mexican authorities or the survivor's different names. Alvarenga said he set sail on Dec. 21, 2012, but fisherman in Costa Azul said an overweight Central American man known as "La Chancha," or "the Pig," had been lost since November 2012. Alvarenga may have used multiple nicknames, and he has seemed fuzzy about details of his voyage.
Jose Manuel Aragon, spokesman for the Chiapas state civil defence office, said two weeks of searches were fruitless and his comments reflected the widespread incredulity at Alvarenga's tale.
"It was probably something that was planned beforehand, something we had no knowledge of," Aragon said. "Our only duty was to carry out search and rescue operations."
Heavy rains, high winds
Villermino Rodriguez, a young fishing boat owner in Costa Azul known as "Willie," described Alvarenga as a heavy set, quiet man. Alvarenga has said he worked for Willie.
Rodriguez said the two men set out despite warnings that day about heavy rains and high winds.
He, too, wondered about the survival story.
"You can imagine a lot of things, but that is something he should explain," Rodriguez said. "There are things that don't match up. I knew him, but I have a lot of doubts."
Alvarenga did not appear badly sunburned, despite his account of spending such a long time adrift.
"It's hard for me to imagine someone surviving 13 months at sea," U.S. Ambassador Tom Armbruster said in Majuro, capital of the Marshall Islands, after speaking with Alvarenga. "But it's also hard to imagine how someone might arrive on Ebon out of the blue. Certainly this guy has had an ordeal, and has been at sea for some time."
Enormous cooler
Armbruster, who speaks Spanish, said Alvarenga told him he was working for Willie, catching sharks for 25 pesos ($1.90) a pound, when a storm blew his seven-meter fibreglass boat off course.
Photos from the Marshall Islands published by Britain's Telegraph newspaper show the boat he purportedly arrived in. It bore the hand-lettered name of a Chiapas fishing co-operative, Camaroneros de la Costa, that Alvarenga said he worked for. The photos also showed an enormous plastic cooler that Alvarenga purportedly used to shelter himself from the sun and sea.
Alvarenga's story mirrors the tale of three Mexican fishermen rescued by a trawler near the Marshall Islands in 2006 after nine months at sea.
Despite many doubters, Lucio Rendon, Salvador Ordonez and Jesus Vidana stuck to their story, saying they left Mexico's Pacific port of San Blas on Oct. 28, 2005, and they were rescued Aug. 9, 2006, by a Taiwanese fishing ship 8,000 km away.
The trio, who were also on a shark-fishing expedition in an open boat similar in size to Alvarenga's, said they survived by taking shelter from the sun under a blanket, eating raw fish and birds and drinking rain water and their urine.

Betting on a Gold Upswing
By Mike Price - July 17, 2013 | Tickers: CEF, GDXJ, GDX, GLD |
Gold's 30% fall over the past six months has pushed nearly all investor sentiment to the negative side of the trade. Meanwhile, there has been no slowdown in money printing or debt raising and the long-term fundamental trends point toward a recovery in gold prices.

Warren Buffett's Disingenuous Stance on Gold
By Ryan Glosier - May 17, 2013 | Tickers: GDXJ, GDX, GLD
Berkshire Hathaway Chairman and CEO Warren Buffett has long been a vocal opponent of gold as an investment. Over the years, the super-investor and one of the richest men on the planet has publicly railed against the merits of the yellow metal.

If Natural Gas, Why Not Gold?
By Peter Epstein - May 8, 2013 | Tickers: ABX, GDXJ, NEM
Few questioned the reasoning behind the thesis. Natural gas prices had been stuck in a range between $2.00-$3.30/mmBtu for almost two years. Yet, today natural gas prices are above $4/mmBtu, more than double last year's low tick. The EIA reports,

Time to buy McEwen Mining
By Vy Tran - April 12, 2013 | Tickers: GG, SLV, GDXJ, GDX, MUX, GLD
Today is a day of extreme weakness in the monetary metals gold (GLD) and silver (SLV). Ostensibly, it is due to the draft plan by Cyprus to sell gold as part of its bailout.
This is an interesting explanation but I believe the main reason is simply that owning gold and silver is an overcrowded trade.

The global macroeconomic situation is setting up to send gold on a new run to never before seen levels, but some investors still find the volatility and position sizes of the commodities markets too much to handle.

Are Gold Miners Majorly Oversold?
By J. Keith Johnson - May 11, 2012 | Tickers: SLV, GDXJ, GDX, GLD, PHYS
Over the past several months Market Vectors Gold Miners Trust (NYSEMKT: GDX) has taken a beating, giving up $25 (~38%) since November 2011 highs. Obviously such a pullback is discouraging for investors holding shares. But for those of us looking for opportunity, it may be just what we've been waiting for.

This week in precious metals has been more of the same. Movement is volatile hour to hour, but daily changes are minimal, frustrating many investors.

Book Description:Nonnegative matrices and positive operators are widely applied in science, engineering, and technology. This book provides the basic theory and several typical modern science and engineering applications of nonnegative matrices and positive operators, including the fundamental theory, methods, numerical analysis, and applications in the Google search engine, computational molecular dynamics, and wireless communications. Unique features of the book include the combination of the theories of nonnegative matrices and positive operators as well as the emphasis on applications of nonnegative matrices in the numerical analysis of positive operators, such as Markov operators and Frobenius-Perron operators which play key roles in the statistical and stochastic studies of dynamical systems. It can be used as a textbook for an upper undergraduate course in advanced matrix theory and/or positive operators as well as for an advanced topic course in operator theory or ergodic theory. It serves as a good reference for researchers in mathematical sciences, physical sciences, and engineering.

Despite the best efforts of the local ACLU branch and other anti-American groups, Yassin Aref and Mohammed Hossain (aka the Moussed Mujahideen*), will remain behind bars:
The U.S Second Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the convictions of Yassin Aref, 37, and Mohammed Hossain, 53, who were sentenced last year to 15 years each in prison for their roles in a fake plot to attack the Pakistani ambassador to the United Nations in New York with a missile.
Both appealed their convictions of money-laundering and conspiring to provide material support to the Pakistan-based Islamic militant group Jaish-e-Mohammed, which is considered a terrorist organization by the U.S. government.
The federal appeals court rejected all the defense's arguments, including that the men did not know missiles were involved.
"The evidence sufficed for a jury to conclude that Aref intended to aid in preparing a missile attack on American soil," the ruling said, concluding the same for Hossain.
During the 2006 trial, the two were found to have laundered $50,000 from an FBI informant who said he worked for the militant group.
*Why are they "moussed"? At the time of their arrest, both men were wearing the traditional Salafist beards and flowing robes. In the interim between arrest and trial, someone advised a more, er, western look: trimmed beards, suits, and well-coiffed hair.

its good to see my art has a mediocre consistency .Thats something.I can build off that.
33 Day Guro Challenge (Part 1)
here are some fun facts
I was thinking about giving Kai night terrors for a long time now and i finally decided i would.It kinda brings things together.
i kinda dissapointed myself with this because out of everything,i decided to do some mushy crap.
i did not know what vore was before this.Im glad all i did was look up the definition and not actual pictures.Bonus fact:this was the first time i ever drew myself a penis.Much more,an erect one.
DAY4:Piercings/Body Mods
Basically became an excuse for me to draw Jane.Because i love Jane.
DAY5:Mask Covered eyes/Covered mouth
Since he already wears a mask all the time,why not create a kink out of it?(And then the guro challenge became known as the kink challenge)
edited to "reconstructive surgery" because honeslty the original theme did not inspire me at aaall.But it turned out into a good thing because im really happy with Ezrick's final character design and it also shows a sneak peak of a story i've got to illustrate one day.
(Source: hisgracioustyranny)
this started with the red doodle in the corner as a vent thingy but ended up as a fun theme for more doodles
"At least you tried"
this is my attempt in using a colour sceme or however its called.You cant really tell but whatever.Dollou would never wear so many colours in the state she is currently.I like how despite being behedead,Dollou is entirelly uninpressed.
"oh is that all you could do?Chop my head off?Tell me,how many days did it take you to come up with that genius idea?" "oh come on,you can do better than that.Oh hey but at least you tried."

full of hidden meaning,
many reasons just for creating it.
beauty captured with words,
used to stimulate emotions.
so rich in it's various forms,
stirring mixed sensations.
like an exotic flavor, untold!
lost in the artist's sophistication;
rending the use of my logical understanding,
like an amateur,
holding unto it's last excitement,
works of true inspiration,
with hidden secrets of passion,
founded like it was the first poem ever written for you.

text: How do you define progress? Basically, something else that is released down the road should always improve on the former, but this does is not guaranteed to happen all the time. For instance, when Skype introduced a tablet interface for Android devices, it proved to be a boon for those who loved to perform video calls on a tablet, but one pet peeve of many would be the seeming impotence of Skype for Android that did not support portrait mode. After all, landscape mode works just fine for 10" tablets, but owners of the 7" tablet segment would be able to tell you it does not feel right having to hold a book-like device sideways just to carry out a video conversation.

There are so many weight loss supplements today, but one particular supplement that received massive attention by the health and fitness industry is green coffee bean extract. Research showed that it is safe and very effective in helping you lose weight. If you want to lose weight and you want to experience the benefits offered by green coffee bean extract, then it is important to have realistic expectation about the supplement. This article will give you the basic information you need about green coffee bean extract. Detailed information about the supplement can be found on this link http://greencoffeebeanworld.com/. Meanwhile, keep on reading below to further enrich your knowledge about green coffee bean extract supplement.
Is green coffee bean similar to that of regular coffee?
If you think that green coffee bean is similar to regular coffee, then you are wrong. The process of manufacturing green coffee bean is totally different from regular coffee. What you need to know is that regular coffee is made from roasted coffee beans. Since it has undergone the roasting process you can expect that the taste isn't that bitter. The downfall of roasting the beans is that its beneficial compound also loses. On the other hand, green coffee bean is made from unroasted coffee beans and so the beneficial compound known as chlorogenic acid remains intact.
Will taking the supplement help you lose weight even without performing exercise?
Most people believed that taking green coffee bean supplement will help them lose weight even without doing anything. It is true that the supplement helps you lose weight naturally, but you also need to keep in mind that there is no such thing as miracle drug. To speed up the weight loss process, it would help a lot if you are going to exert other weight loss measures such as limiting your caloric intake and performing various exercises such as simple walking, jogging, and running.
Are there any other health benefits aside from weight loss?
Green coffee bean extract becomes popular because of its weight loss benefit, but the truth to the matter is that it has plenty of health benefits aside from the one mentioned above. Green coffee bean extract is rich in antioxidant property and so it helps a lot in fighting toxins and free radicals. It has the ability to fight cancer, cardiovascular related diseases, Alzheimer's diseases, and so on. If you regularly take it, you will have a healthier body and mind.

I desperately they'd quit trying to "fix" eclipse, and just get rid of it. We're nearing the second expansion of the 'great eclipse' experiment. And it has NEVER worked satisfactorily. Saying it's 'better now than it's ever been' doesn't keep it from being a reeking pile of murloc underpants overall.
it's like having a "nature spec" and "arcane spec" DPS-talent tree fighting for supremacy at all times while you're trying to play. To describe it a bit more, imagine making mages be forced to switch back and forth between "frost" and "affliction" every ten casts. THAT'S eclipse.
And yes, I know "affliction" isn't a mage tree. That's somewhat the point.

Everytime I suppress my hunger and prevent myself from eating something unhealthy or when I'm not hungry, I reward myself with a point*. I could use these points to give myself permission to buy things.

So, when I started writing about how earned value management systems (EVMS) can accurately predict the future with some simple calculations, I received some responses that expressed varying levels of incredulity. It simply goes against intuition that an information element as important as at-completion project costs could quickly and easily fall out of an EVMS.
But since I've already firmly ensconced myself at the end of this limb, let me take it a step further: The estimate at completion (EAC)--the brass ring of management information systems--can be calculated without a baseline, a work breakdown structure or a formal change-control process--none of what we've been told are essential parts of an acceptable EVMS. None. Nada. Zilch.
Now, I'm well-aware that the previous sentence is the metaphorical equivalent of pulling the pin on a grenade and rolling onto the floor of a conference room full of EVMS experts, but I can explain.
The traditional formula for calculating an EAC (EAC = BAC/CPI) can be algebraically reduced to dividing cumulative actual costs by cumulative percent complete. That's right, we're talking two date elements, easily collected. And the resulting information is far, far more accurate than anything that the general ledger can produce. It's also much more accurate (and faster and easier) than re-estimating the remaining work and adding that to cumulative actual costs.
In fact, it's so much more accurate, faster and easier than any competing information stream, that I'm frankly flummoxed that the calculated EAC isn't the centerpiece of EVMS use everywhere.
I can't wait to see the responses to this one.

Greear notes one especially worth pondering. The point of being gospel-centered is loving the God of the gospel. His Word lays out how we can follow him and grow into Christ-likeness. As Greear explains, "You don't want to be more gospel-centered than Jesus."

Burgundy wine is the other most highly-celebrated of the French bottlings. Situated in the northeastern part of the country, the cooler climate is perfectly suited to the Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs which are produced.
White wines from Burgundy range from the ripe, mellow Macons, to the textured, sophisticated Montrachets, to the crisp, minerally Chablis. Red wines from Burgundy tend to be leaner with more acidity and lots of earthy, mushroomy flavors.

Food Chemical Composition
Dietary Significance in Food Manufacturing
Tim Hutton (Author)
Copyright: 2002
Format: Paperback
Extent: 118
Price: £24.95
Food is made of chemicals. To the food manufacturer, these chemicals are all potentially significant, as they determine the nutritional value, eating properties and suitability for use in particular products and processes. This book explains, to those without expertise in food chemistry, some of the basics of food chemical composition. Adopting a strong industrial slant, the book uses examples from food manufacturing and the industry-consumer interface to put food composition in context, considering how it relates to wider issues like safety assurance, traceability, product development and labelling. Selected examples are used to illustrate specific points that often get overlooked in discussions of the chemicals that are either natural to foods or used in preservation and processing. Industrialists and students alike will welcome this book as an aid to understanding the importance of food composition. This book is published in association with CCFRA.
This reviewer found the book useful and informative and can recommend it.
Source : Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 2004, 84: 1988 (D A Cronin)
"The text is clear and uncomplicated and provides the reader with background knowledge regarding the chemical composition of food ... aimed primarily at industry recruits, trainees and undergraduate students, the book may also be of interest to those interested in a career in the food industry, food science and technology students, and personnel within the industry seeking a broad overview of food-related topics ... also ideally suited for the food technology teacher ... I would recommend this book ..."
Source : Nutrition Bulletin, 28, 2003, p 84
"... a useful book and I can recommend it to anyone starting in the food industry as a clear and readable introduction."
Source : Chemistry in Britain, Vol 39, No 2, February 2003
"... suitable for food technology students, either in industry and education ... It would support AS/A2 food technology extremely well."

... well, from Kenya actually, where I am on holiday (avoiding shopping centres!) and waiting to get out to the Masai Mara. I am a wildlife fanatic, but despite several thousand shots, still waiting for 'the one'! Hoping also to visit Lake Naivasha and also have a crazy idea about taking images of fish eagles from a couple of rafts I've built.
I have just retired from the family business (glass & crystal importers) and left my two sons to keep it going. Now it's time to learn how to really use the Canon kit I've accrued over the years. Composition is my enemy, but I can't find a listing in the Forums - can anyone offer guidance? I have several 'inspirational' photographers whose work I admire and wish I knew how they got their positioning...
Looking forward to chatting to you all.
Hi Simon, welcome to EPZ and our mad eclectic world.
You can find tutorials on EPZ TV - on the left hand side of the home page under "New Articles" click on "Videos" and then "More videos." That will get you into a list. Look also on the "Techniques" tag.
Since you're on-line in Kenya, if you have an iPad go to iBooks and buy David Noton's iBook The Composition Tutorials. It's a bit lightweight, but it does cover the basics quite well. I have it to remind me of what I'm trying to get when I'm out on location. When you get back home, join your local camera club. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but contrary to popular opinion clubs aren't totally full of old farts like me.
All the best,
Hello Alan, Thanks for your welcome (from one old fart to another!).
Sadly, I don't have an iPad, still stuck on Windoze. But I will certainly investigate EPZ TV, which sound very interesting. It is quite amazing how much there is on this website! Thanks also for the suggestion regarding camera clubs. I have recently investigated one based in Cromarty (near Inverness), which sounds very friendly.
Puertouk, thanks for your suggestion. As you say, there are thousands of videos on YouTube, but I often wonder how one sifts through them all to obtain 'sound' knowledge?
Hello Simon. My advice will cost you 20 pounds, it's solid, will last for ages and doesn't need electricity to work with. Interested? Go get Tom Ang's book 'Digital photography essentials'. Best of all, you can borrow it from a library!
Bob's (your uncle)
Hello Pablo, Thanks very much for your advice. I shall look for it in a very large book shop I know of in Nairobi. Simon

Gods Will Be Watching review: A true life simulator
Life isn't fair. You could die in a car accident tomorrow. You might have your career goals sidetracked by a sick relative. You might lose your mind before you ever reach that retirement in the sun. If Call of Duty were like real life, every mission would come with a 15% chance of randomly breaking an ankle on a rock and being discharged. If Dark Souls were like real life, giant bosses...

Omarr's Daily Astrological Forecast June 13, 2011
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Let the future be an incentive. Develop stability by not reacting with dismay when a special someone does something unpredictable. Realize that to build a prosperous future, you must remain a rock.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You can forge your own destiny and influence reality. Do not ignore any opportunity. It might seem like just a little thing, but details are like puzzle pieces that when put together create a whole picture.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Decide right now that you can make a difference. The ability to alter your reality for the better and become a positive agent for change is within your grasp. Waiting for the right time is not necessary.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You are often awed when things come at just the right time. It might be a word of advice, an offer of assistance or a kindly word of encouragement, but in some way it changes your life for the better.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You may buy into the myth that there are things you just can't live without. You might become obsessed by owning this or that. Romantic mysteries intrigue you and affectionate embraces are intense.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Do not mix up your values or betray your principles. Live the present intensely, but sensitively. When you are obsessed by getting what you want, you could easily forget about what someone else wants.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Life's road is long, but it is traveled fast. You can see further ahead than usual right now, so can make plans that suit your journey. You can be successful at anything that tweaks your passions.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Adopt your own worthy cause so you can leave your own legacy. You worthiest cause might be planning ahead for your own future. This is a good time to ask for advice from professionals.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You might sense that your life is breaking down. Maybe your nest is becoming empty or your home needs repairs. This is a good time to make a decision about ways you can control your future.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Your business expertise comes in handy, whether you must deal with career and finances, relationships or personal matters. You may sense that some paradigms are being shattered, so plan wisely.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Magnetic attractions might stir up some magnetic storms. You are overly anxious to please others, so you might go out of your way to get attention. Avoid misunderstandings with those who are near and dear to you.
IF JUNE 13 IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: A positive attitude often attracts success. You may be asked to take the lead at the office, or you may stumble on a lucky break during the next several weeks. Don't go overboard and spend all your extra income or take loved ones for granted. If things go wrong, you might be blamed for not keeping up your end of a bargain. In October, your reputation is on the line; you must burn the candle at both ends and exercise your organizational skills to keep with a busy schedule. A new romance in the fall might be all fluff and little substance, so wait to see if it is the real thing. In February, an improved business sense will help you put things back into apple pie order and you can lay out firm ground rules for the year ahead.

East Rutherford, NJ (SportsNetwork.com) - New York Giants running back Brandon Jacobs is expected to miss a third straight game due to persistent injuries to his hamstring and knee.
The Giants have listed Jacobs, who rushed for 106 yards and two touchdowns at Chicago in Week 6 prior to being sidelined, as doubtful for Sunday's matchup against the Oakland Raiders.
New York will likely use a combination of Peyton Hillis and Andre Brown, who was activated from the short-term injured reserve list Thursday. Early-season starter David Wilson (neck) was officially placed on IR Thursday to make room for Brown, now recovered from a fractured fibula sustained during the preseason.
On the defensive side, cornerback Corey Webster has been ruled out for New York's post-bye week clash with groin and ankle injuries. The veteran has participated in just four of the Giants' nine games this season, having previously been sidelined with a hip flexor strain.
Defensive tackle Shaun Rogers (knee), moved to IR along with Wilson on Thursday, has been declared out as well.
Wide receiver Victor Cruz is probable to face the Raiders after missing some practice time this week with a stiff neck. Cornerback Terrell Thomas (knee) and tight end Adrien Robinson (foot) are also expected to play.
