Help, My Christianity Has Been Hijacked!
Guest blogger NorEastMom is one Christian mom who doesn't take the Bible literally and is sick of being pigeon-holed.
I am a Christian woman. Now, before you assume to know me, you might be surprised to learn a few things. I do not believe in Creationism ... although something miraculous happened to the human race clearly, otherwise monkeys would have Wii's. I do support gay marriage, and I don't take the Bible literally. My views don't strictly follow my church's views, my views have changed many times over my lifetime, and my views don't need to be yours. So, I'm just wondering if anyone might relate to my growing annoyance that nowadays when people hear you are Christian, they hear "religious extremist."
I should also mention that I was raised Catholic and still practice many of their rituals and traditions. Which might make some of you add, "Well then she's definitely NOT a Christian!" Either way, I am pretty convinced you do not have any interest in my journey of faith, religious beliefs, etc. I happen to feel that people's spirituality should be at least as confidential as their health records. So if you want to know about all my beliefs and how I arrived at them, you'll need to sign a HIPPA contract. That being said, I would like the freedom to state that I am in fact Christian in my beliefs, without someone jumping to the conclusion that I am of the Christian right.
The definition of Christian, according to Wikipedia is "a monotheistic religion centered on the life and teachings of Jesus as presented in the New Testament. Its followers, known as Christians, believe that Jesus is the only begotten Son of God and the Messiah (Christ) prophesied in the Hebrew Bible. To Christians, Jesus Christ is a teacher, the model of a virtuous life, the revealer of God, as well as an incarnation of God, and most importantly the savior of humanity who suffered, died, and was resurrected to bring about salvation from sin." Nowhere does it say, "And a Christian follows only one particular translation of the New Testament, and a Christian must take all antiquated language of the Bible literally, and they must fuse their political and spiritual beliefs, and also, Christ wants everyone to be as dogmatic as possible with the rules and regulations of this religion ... no flexibility." Uh oh, my beliefs are showing ... back to the point.
In fairness, then, shouldn't anyone who believes these basic tenets be called "Christian," and the fundamentalists come up with another name for themselves, such as maybe the FUN-CHRI's? Kinda cute, right? They could be Orthodox Christians, Neo Christians, Conservative Christians, Bible-Based Christians, or of course, just Fundamentalists. Yes, the term already exists, but no one seems to be using it, and that's the problem. Certainly, I'm aware that no one intentionally took over the term Christian, and popular culture is just as much to blame for their stereotyping of this group as Bush-loving neoconservatives. But in fairness this definition "Christian" does belong to billions of other worshipers out there, be they Catholic, Protestant, or other, so let's do what Jesus would do -- and learn to share.
AMEN Sister! I am so glad for this post! I too am a Christian, and GASP, not a Republican. I voted for Obama and am appalled by Prop 8. Please know that you are not alone and are in my prayers. Thanks again for this.
So glad someone stepped up and showed you CAN be a Christian (or any other religion, really) without being extreme.
I agree. But I find that mostly, in my neighborhood anyway (Fundamentalist) Christians are the ones who automatically exclude people who have a more open idea of what Christianity entails.
It's frustrating, since I love Jesus too, but according to my Fundamentalist friends, I cannot rightfully call myself a Christian, because I also meditate and believe Buddha knew a thing or two.
Wow, I am a Christian and I DO take the Bible literally. But I don't consider myself to be an extremist. I do have an open mind when it comes to culturally relevant issues, and I do have faith in Obama and choose to give him a chance to prove himself. But to suggest that the Bible is not "literal" is beyond my realm of having an open-mind on matters. I enjoy several different translations, but the concept that is relevant in each translation should be a foundation of our belief not something we discredit.
I think the problem is.. you are using Wikipedia's definition of "Christian" and not the Bible's. The word actually means "Christlike" or those that act like Christ.
Many people believe that Jesus was the Messiah, that he lived and died and even that he rose from the dead…the problem is they do not want to live like he lived.
Christianity is more then a title… it's a relationship of love and respect. It's also much more then simply reading the Bible or even taking the Bible as literal… It's the day to day living your life with the understanding that your life belongs to your Creator and that this life is only a brief interlude to the eternal life to come.
I too am often frustrated by the media and the right-wing portrayal of Christianity, but I'm equally frustrated by those who call themselves Christians but obviously do not have a personal relationship with Jesus, nor do they want to follow him. After all, He did say "In that day, Many will say to me, Lord, Lord but I never knew them" (paraphrased)
WHOA. There's so much wrong with your post! First, never cite Wiki as any kind of source, cause that just makes intelligent people LOL, or click away.
Second, fundamentalist IS used, and used often.
You know, don't you, that most fundamentalists will look down their nose at you.
Also, I have a prediction: you seem to have half a brain. I'm willing to bet you move down the continuum toward agnosticism before long. Are you one of these people: "I believe in God and Jesus, but I don't believe in the religious institutions"? Then you're already going that way.
Also, you're likely one of these:"i'm spiritual but not religious."
Well, except you practice the outdated ritualistic catholic things, which are, in their very definition, religious rituals.
Gues what? The bible is a document written by humans. Churches are institutions started by huamns. Humans are, by their very nature, fallible creatures. Everything you believe is based on a fallible system.
Come over to the dark side bwhaha.
~Ally, agnostic, nearly atheist, and yes, more intelligent then most Xians.
The problem with your position is that the "Christians" — Catholic, Protestant, Eastern Orthodox, Pentecostal, Anglican, Monophysites, African Independent Churches, Latter-day Saints, Evangelical, Seventh-Day Adventists, Jehovah's Witnesses, Quakers, Assemblies of God, nominal Christians, etc. — who believe the Pope is infallible, and/or profess the Bible is infallible (their version) are the majority, not the minority. And the majority determines what Christianity is, and what Christianity isn't.
My question to you is this: why are you so attached to the word "Christianity", when you really have your own religion? You are "picking and choosing" what to believe, and what not to believe, so you cannot really be defined a Christian, but a Christian heretic.
Please understand I'm not putting you down, just allowing you to think with your own head. I, a Christian heretic like you, but with probably different beliefs, don't call myself a Christian, but a Cesidian.
Cesidians deem Christians idolaters who do not worship the Lord Yeshua as the true Word of God, but really worship the book of books that is the Bible, and/or the Pope.
Cesidians believe that if Yeshua alone is not the Word, and the 'Final Word of God', this only reinforces the need for more Bible printing, the need to cut down more and more trees in order to continue what is essentially the dogma of the Industrial Revolution, and other environmentally-destructive practices of that age.
Thus worship of the Pope is essentially viewed as worship of a fallible human being, and worship of the Bible is essentially viewed as idolatry of the Industrial Revolution and its environmentally destructive practices, a view which is not supported in the very Bible itself, since it suggests that the 'destroyers of the Earth' shall they themselves be one day destroyed (Revelation 11:18).
Christianity is essentially a state religion (that's why 2.1 billon people follow the faith), so why do you expect it to be as private and personal as your rational (or irrational) heresy? Why would you even expect Jesus to call himself a Christian, when he clearly denounces in the Gospels those that follow the highway (see long list above, usually defining itself as "Christian"), instead of his narrow way to salvation?
Wow!It's acceptable to be extreme about animal rights,gay marriage, gay pride parades, and taking God out of everything! If standing up for God, and taking the inspired word quite literally is considered extreme so be it! Don't be intimidated by how you're perceived! Ladies you have your shirts on backward if you think you can serve two masters, three if you count yourself! God is the same today, tomorrow and forever! Our problem is that we think it's all about us. Even our terrorist enemies know that..it's all about God! Take the blinders off and don't fall into the world, stand up to it! I'm extreme alright! Extremely grateful, for I know where my blessings come from! Merry CHRISTMAS!
I don't think you could go into a church with 100 people and find even two of them who think EXACTLY alike on religious issues. Don't worry about it, not everyone is a hater.
THANK YOU so much for this post. I totally agree. I am also Catholic but disagree with the church on social issues.
I really HATE it when people assume that Catholics are not Christians. Hello—see the big cross in the front of every Catholic church for a clue!
When did Christian get to be a bad word? Drives me crazy!
I *loved* your post, and some of the crap pushback you've gotten in the comments is a perfect example of the "my-way-or-the-highway" view that is driving too many sensible, tolerant, intelligent people AWAY from Christianity. I respect the religion of my youth but think even Christ would roll his eyes at some of his more narrow-minded and literal followers.
But I guess I've got MY views showing now! :o)
I enjoyed your post…especially the title! Ha…I love it!! I do wonder if you are confusing political issues with religion though. Clearly, most people, especially politicians, in this country confuse the two. But, I say leave the politics out of your religion and you probably won't feel like such an outsider amongst Christians. Let me be clear, that I am not saying "don't talk about politics", I mean understand that politics are different for everyone…Christian or not. However, most Christians do have more in common than not when it comes to the love and grace of Christ.
Peace : )
You said something that has been on a lot of peoples minds, like mine… but no one wanted to say it… Christianity is officially a "bad word" at this point in American culture and unless we appreciate the diversity within it, we will continue to be bullied by the extremists.
As far as I'm concerned, my beliefs and my faith are not things which can be defined by someone else. Jesus knows this, God sees how I live my life. If we all stopped looking for the correct label to put on ourselves and focused on trying to live the example Christ gave us, we might actually make the world a better place together. Except for those extremists - man are they crazy!
The author doesn't know Jesus. How could she? She doesn't understand or follow scripture. God is the word and the word became flesh. The author is whom Jesus references as 'I never knew you" and speaks to as the lukewarm in Revelation. The author has created god in her image of what he should be, not who He truly is.
No it doesn't shock me at all you and others "buffet religion". Plain and simple then your not saved. Seems to be a trend these days, sadly.
Pro 14:12 "There is a way [that seems] right to a man, But its end [is] the way of death."
Jhn 14:23 "Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him."
and for those whom don't know what "my word" means..
Jhn 1:14 "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth."
Pick and chose what you believe all you want but it doesn't make it a reality. Who cares what you OR anyone else declare is right; only God's word is absolute truth.
Mat 16:24 "Then Jesus said to His disciples, "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me."
Simply put we are all wretched, in need of God's forgiveness and forgiveness is found soley in repentance of sin, and faith in Jesus which is active trust in what He says based on His WORD.
One should gather from this that the Bible's literal interpretation is very important. Your life depends on it.
How are you. When you have got an elephant by the hind leg, and he is trying to run away, it's best to let him run.

A. Remodel boxes, or
remodeler straps, also called "chicken legs" or "turkey legs"
(Figure 4), are helpful for putting new boxes in old walls. The
remodel boxes come in plastic or metal. The plastic ones have
ears that lie flat against the box as you place the box into a
hole in the wall. Then, by turning screws from the front of the
box, the ears turn out from the box and catch the inside of the
wall. This places pressure from behind the box, and the flange
on the front of the box holds the box firmly in place. The
metal version works on the same principle, but will not flex or
distort as the plastic box can.
Get the details right when working on historic buildings.

@mtsadowski: That's pretty much it. I was having an arguement on the official forums the other day about a similar issue. It's easy for Blizz to ignore the irrational cries of their customerbase, but we live in a day and age where the customer wants everything go their way, have someone to blame if things go wrong, and feel entitled to compensation if it doesn't.
Mind you, Blizz probably has enough money to hire lawyers that would blow any lawsuits out of the water. It also doesn't mean that Blizz is always in the right. But the threat it always there; think of the customer from McDonalds who sued a restaurant (and won) because they burnt their lip on a cup of coffee.

Oxtongue Rapids
October 21st, 2012
Over a Thanksgiving holiday I was spending some solitary time at the rapids. The hike was full of colourful leaves and this bright red maple tree caught my attention.
This shot is a composite of an exposure lasting several minutes using my Lee Big Stopper to blur the water, and another series of photos combined using HDR to freeze the leaves.

Manarola, Cinque Terre
By lmborlenghi
January 10th, 2012
This is Manarola, my favorite of all the Cinque Terre (5 lands) in Italy. I'm studying in Florence for four months. Missing the summer and ocean, I took a train and spent one day walking among the most beautiful landscapes with my girlfriend. Via del amore (path of love) and a beautiful sunset made this a magical place. One of my favorites on Earth.

"For every bowl of borscht there is a Neil Young album of equal value" - Confucius
Polonia Restaurant631 Manhattan Avenue, Greenpoint BrooklynNot bad! Pretty hearty. This borscht has cabbage, tomatoes, and potatoes in there. A winter's brew. And it's quick and easy. No table service here. The old lady ladles you a bowl from behind the counter. And yet… it's relatively unknown. Not even Google knows about it. It's in the middle of a busy area and no one notices it.
Neil Young album: "Time Fades Away" (1973)Obscure yet perfectly acceptable. No one's heard of it even though it's from the most popular era. It's the way you want it.

"I still have to say I'm unhappy with Eregos' victory over Loken, and now over Anub'arak. In terms of scope, he's just another dragon..."
He's "just another dragon" who happens to be graced with 3.8 million HP and attack abilities that hit for anywhere from 6,000 to 43,000 damage. There are LITERALLY raid bosses - IN WRATH - that are weaker than him. He's anything but "just another dragon," he is essentially the Sartharion to Malygos' Deathwing; a trusted guardian of the lair and one of the most powerful members of the entire flight.
As presented in the game, Eregos is far and away the most powerful of the heroic bosses. He's a colossus, one we can't even attempt to fight on our own - we'd get slaughtered. The only way we can even engage him with a chance at victory is to bring our own drakes into the fight.
I voted against my own personal favorite, Keristrasza, when she ran into this guy, and I was a bit annoyed when people fell back on the "well Loken's a Titan guy so he wins" explanation during their matches (during most of Loken's matches really) when battle and warfare aren't even part of Loken's profile.
As far as I see it, Ley-Guardian Eregos is the right and proper champion of the Wrath heroic season, and kudos to him for it.

Indian share markets soar higher
Led by persistent buying across heavy-weights, Indian share markets continued to escalate in the last two trading hours. All the sectoral indices are trading positive with capital goods, power and banking stocks being the biggest gainers.
The Sensex today is trading up 364 points and NSE-Nifty is trading up 106 points. BSE Mid Cap index and BSE Small Cap index are trading up by 1.3% and 1% respectively. The rupee is trading at 56.2 to the US dollar.
Majority of the banking stocks are trading in green with UCO Bank and Central bank leading the gainers. As per the Financial Stability Report of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), the banking industry has been in the dock on account of rising incidence of restructuring of loans extended to the aviation and power sectors. As per the report, the two sectors account for 23% of the total restructured portfolio of banks. Of the total loans, the banks restructured 12% loans for the airlines industry and 11% loans for the power sector in the March 2012 quarter. RBI feels that policy paralysis and financing constraints is not likely to improve the situation in the near future.
Majority of the mining stocks are trading in green with National Mineral Development Corporation and Coal India being the biggest gainers. As per a leading financial daily, Hindustan Zinc has chalked out investments of Rs 20.2 bn to improve mining operations at its Rampur Agucha and Sindesar Khurd mines in Rajasthan. The company plans to fund the capital expenditure through internal accruals. The projects are expected to be completed by 2017.

Better Dog Spotlight
Maxwell's Daily Find 09.20.12
Better Dog Spotlight
• $375
• Strand Design
This is a very cool light from one of our Design Showcase exhibitors. I particularly like the red bit of metal running up the inside. They say: "The Better Dog Spotlight has an updated design blending powder coated steel with sustainably sourced wood. The lamp is hand-built and assembled, and is given a long lasting oil finish."
2 Comments
I have owned this lamp for several years so mine is an earlier version of it. I bought it in Chicago directly from the designers. Wonderful element to have on one's desk but don't expect for this to serve as the brightest lamp. The bulb is rather tiny and low wattage. Gorgeous piece though.
Hey Carrie13090, So glad you like the lamp! If you are looking for a brighter bulb, I recommend using a CFL versus the original low watt incandescent bulbs that we sold the lamps with. Here is a link to a great bulb that looks beautiful in the lamps, and provides a lot of light.
Best Regards,
Strand Design

As much as i don't want to admit this i think I'm fooling myself. I'd never ever say i hate someone I "love" and never have. Even when people i care for are at their worst and even if i am getting abuse as a result of it… i don't talk bad about them. To anyone. And maybe I'm the one in the wrong here. Because sorry if this is self centered but i think i deserve a lot of credit here. I didn't give up and i didn't get angry and i didn't trash you or us. And i can't figure out if i made excuses for you or not. All i know is everything is supposed to be fine now and i said I'd be here but i think I've got other things to do, just like you. I need friends i actually like and i needed to let you go when you were so awful to me. I woke up this morning with a broken heart because my dreams put it into perspective. I tried to clear my head and find that love but you simply don't have it. Fuck, every time.

I love you @gamsaray !
About to start a shift at a store an hour away, have to work here for a week to get some certifications so i can be a manager at my new job. I finally left my old position after complaining about it for two years. I'm nervous about sucking, I've only worked here for a couple weeks and don't know everything necessary but my boss needs a manager badly.
I've forgotten how to tumblr so @plasticpancakes - thanks! Glad to be back.
…. it's all okay.
I take that back,i don't actually wonder what it'll be like because i don't want to know. But i guess I'll find out.
Seriously like every relationship i have ends with the other party telling me they didn't like me a long time ago and they "stuck around" for this or that. Cool. But it's dishonest and it hurts more in the end. Like oh when you realize you don't love me and I'm not pregnant but then you finally give me the heads up when I'm six months along after you've asked me to marry you and gotten my son good and attached.
This is why i deactivated my facebook, because i have no self control. At least nobody reads my tumblr
So i wonder what it'll be like to be twenty four with two kids by two different men;one who makes life hell and one who makes my heart ache and my brain a wreck
I guess the thing that's hardest for humans when it comes to mating is acceptance. You choose who you choose for a reason. We always want them to be different though don't we?

141mpg Citroen C4 Cactus Airflow to debut at the Paris Motor Show 2014
Mercedes-Benz CLC review (2008 onwards)
What – Mercedes-Benz CLC
Where – Vienna, Austria
Price – £19,920-£27,240
Available – June
Key rivals – BMW 1-Series Coupé, Volvo C70, Volkswagen Eos, Audi TT
Mercedes reinvigorates the Sports Coupé with a new look, improved engines and a new name. Say hello to the CLC.
Likes: greater fuel efficiency and lower emissions, good equipment levels, decent refinement
Dislikes: rear visibility, slightly vague steering, lacks excitement
First impressions
image © Mercedes
We have to admit, on first acquaintance, we were not exactly bowled over by the 'new' Mercedes CLC. Photography can be a cruel medium, however, so while the CLC certainly looks every bit the heavily facelifted C-Class Sports Coupé that it is, the effect is much more cohesive in the metal than those original press shots.A hint of awkwardness around about the A-pillars remains. And the backend treatment, with its redesigned tailgate, fake diffuser, and virtually full-width third brakelight does look a little - how shall we put this? - like it's wearing too much make up. But the new corporate nose works surprisingly well.
Read more Mercedes car reviews
image © Mercedes
Overall, Mercedes has made some 1,100 changes to turn the Sports Coupé into the CLC. It is still based on the old C-Class, rather than the shiny new one, but the promise of better steering, sportier handling and nicer interiors is a good start to justifying the new name.There have also been some engine upgrades. Not all-new units, but efficiency improvements - spurred on, no doubt, by BMW's success with EfficientDynamics - to the tune of 10.8 percent economy gains in the case of the CLC 200 CDI turbodiesel. And 20 more bhp for the supercharged petrol unit in the CLC 200 Kompressor.
image © Mercedes
That engine business sounds pretty promising, doesn't it? Shame then, that Mercedes only chose to bring two CLC 200 Kompressors to the launch. And only one of these was designated for the 40 or so British journalists present. We didn't get to drive it. Disappointing, given it now packs 181bhp.As for the CLC 200 CDI, the one with the biggest fuel economy improvement - perfect copy fodder for our modern green obsessed world. It wasn't on the launch at all. And nor was the CLC 180 Kompressor petrol, the engine Mercedes-Benz UK says took 47 percent of all Sports Coupé sales.
image © Mercedes
So we can't tell you about those. But we can tell you about the CLC 220 CDI diesel, and the CLC 230 and 350 petrol V6s. Going on previous form the 148bhp 220 diesel should be the second biggest seller. 250lb ft of torque at just 2,000rpm implies decent mid-range pace, but in practice we found it rather flat and uninspiring.Refinement is excellent, though, and for cruising along it should make most people happy. If you do want more pep the petrol V6s are both excellent - sounding good and going very nicely. Especially the 268bhp CLC 350, which felt every bit as strong as 0-62mph in just 6.3 seconds suggests.
Ride and handling
image © Mercedes
Launch driving routes are always carefully planned by the manufacturers. So when the initial briefing joked that most of the driving for the CLC was to be on motorways and dual carriageways we started to get a little suspicious. Especially with the new Direct Steering variable steering rack claiming sharper responses.Fitted standard to the Sport specification, this is intended to blend easy assistance at low speeds with straightline stability on the motorway while also reducing the input necessary during fast cornering (and emergencies). A big ask. All the CLCs we tried were in Sport trim, so does it work?
image © Mercedes
Yes. But it's hardly mind-blowing. While it certainly didn't take much effort to get the CLC through the few challenging corners we came across, there isn't much feel. And with added vagueness around the first few degrees of lock, we found ourselves turning the wheel too much initially, resulting in a state of constant correction.This isn't helped by slightly lose body control, even if grip levels are high. The ride is comfortable, if not entirely niggle free, while the standard six-speed manual gearbox shifts sweetly. The seven-speed auto option on the V6s is also good; Sport spec adds paddleshifters that feel cheap but allow fast, responsive changes.
image © Mercedes
The CLC's interior upgrades over the Sport Coupé are most noticeable in Sport specification, which gets new chequered-back dials with red needles, light brown leather highlights package, and black headlining. Even SE spec cars get a new three-spoke sports steering wheel, better bolstered seats, climate control, alloys, and parking sensors as standard.The latter is a smooth move by Mercedes, as the high beltline considerably restricts rear visibility. Passenger room is better than in the BMW 1-Series Coupé, while the hatchback and vast boot aid practicality. Everything feels high quality - until it comes to the glovebox lid. Cheap and, indeed, nasty.
Economy and safety
image © Mercedes
The CLC 200 CDI is the star of the range for environmental friendliness, returning 48.7mpg combined and emitting 152g/km CO2 (depending on spec). The 220 CDI lags only slightly behind, at 47.9mpg and 156g/km. Worst offender is the 350 petrol, emitting as much 234g/km while consuming fuel at 28.8mpg.Convinced you want a petrol V6? Then stick with the SE version of the CLC 230, and it will sneak below the highest road tax band, emitting 218g/km (Sport pushes it to 225g/km), and returning 29.7mpg. Six airbags, ESP, and new projector beam headlights all help keep safety levels high.
The MSN Cars verdict: 3/5
image © Mercedes
The Sports Coupé has always been a successful 'conquest' product for Mercedes, its youthful image (comparatively speaking...) good at attracting first time customers to the brand. And with prices staying exactly the same, the CLC should have no trouble keeping these people coming, given the engine and equipment upgrades.However, it doesn't really do anything to capture the imagination of anyone who is not already considering it. The 220 diesel we tried lacked verve, and the big petrols are unlikely to account for many sales here in the UK. It's refined, comfortable, and has an excellent image. But if you want something truly sporty you need to look elsewhere.

So I came back home from work and of course did the regular of jumping on Facebook to check the feed. I saw more than a couple of posts about the whole Jimmy Kimmel / Kanye West twitter feud that took place yesterday. First off the bits that Kimmel did on Kanye were great. The milkshakes that were added in made it twice as funny. I've always loved both Kimmel and Kanye, and I still love Kanye West ("Yeezus" is a bad ass album but "Dark fantasy" is his masterpiece and will probably always remain that) even though at the same time I agree that the guy is obviously going through some stuff or he is just really pissed about something, or really narcissistic, or schizophrenic, or bi-polar, or is just faking it for media attention (but look into his eyes during the interview when he gets real intense, you can see all kinds of emotions in him, so if he is acting, this fucking guy deserves an Oscar) So… I don't really know but the guy has got some crazy energy either way.
Well after I decided to not just rely on Jimmy Kimmel's perception of the interview (or just his writers), which… of course he did still make a good point. It's an hour interview so you got to check out the whole book. But come on Kanye, leather jogging pants?? Who gives a shit! Apparently he does. That's one big thing that I learned from his BBC interview. It looks like he has been trying to get into the fashion industry and is pretty much getting rejected from the big names in it, in which he is definitely pissed about it. Wow! This guy is intense but I love it! (I'll explain later) Now maybe they simply don't like his ideas because they are not good, I really don't know, I just want to listen to the music that he makes. It seemed like he kind of drew the race card on why he isn't in the "fashion world" So he is obviously hung up on this fashion thing. He says it's been his number one love since he was a kid and if that is what he wants to do, then of course go for it. Zane Lowe however just wants to talk about the new album but Kanye keeps on taking it to the fashion subject, which starts in the part two video but kind of ends mid way through the part three. It seems like he just wants to be accepted with the "high up" fashion people and it's not working out for him. I guess his ego just got too inflated from all the fame and respect that he has received from music and the hip hop culture and I think that he just thought he could walk into a different artistic realm and get the same respect.
But Kanye, lol! (like he is ever going to actually read this) Why do you give a shit to be in some "cool fashion crowd." i guess music is no longer artistically satisfying for you. If you are so passionate about it then take your ideas and develop it in a grassroots way. Why not, you are already got the name and can get the word out. You may not be able to get that corporate, big money backing like you get with your music but if you are if you are for real about your ideas then fork out your own dough. I know that you sold out of a plain white t-shirt that you "designed" lol! So you obviously got some pull! Or maybe that was just a statement. But none the less starting it by your self will involve your own money and maybe that is not what you want to do. From the interview it seems that your new "anti-corporate" stance has stemmed from the fact that you can't get that money to back up your other non-musical ideas which is what you basically said in the interview when you said that you need "help" (money or in with the right crowd) in order to move your ideas forward. I hope that you have saved some finances from the shitload of albums that you have sold. Man up and fund it yourself. I would bet Detroit commercial real estate is dirt cheap and they desperately need jobs, maybe start there. Shit I don't know, I just got sick of hearing you complain about you not getting your way in certain dreams that you have had. Also, why the fuck am I still writing this like I know you. Oh yea!! Because other than that your interview was great!! It at least drew me in even with all the left field comments and you complaining about dumb pointless shit that you look egotistical has hell like… not being accepted in the fashion world. However, I just love your intensity and the passion that you have when you talk about your dreams. Your obviously not afraid to look insane when you talk about your ideas, and I do love that about you. It is a trait that has become rare now a days with people in the limelight. I have not seen an interview with a artist or celebrity that had this level of intensity and thought provoking/entertaining quotes since…?? I don't know. But in a world where people (especially our celebrities) are so predictable you are a breath of fresh air. (Okay time to stop this whole talking to Kanye thing)
Alright time to end this shit, the interview was simply amazing to me because for some of it you are on the bandwagon that Kanye is crazy has hell, but then he reels you back in with some very nice inspiring thoughts about how you need to just scrape, crawl, and do whatever it takes to accomplish your dream or to just get your vision out. Then he hits you back up with just some straight up "what the fuck is this guy saying" shit. But… at least those lines are entertaining and some are funny as hell, even in the "classic line" range. Then he touches on how are corporate world is ruining the artistic movement and flow within our society and some ways that it is taking place, but then he gets narcissistic again and says how he needs to be the one who leads this new artistic or whatever movement that he has in his head. But hold on I just remembered him complaining about the leaders in an artistic field that don't accept him, but now you want to be a leader?? But then he is back to saying something inspiring. And shit!!!!! Do I like this guy or not!! I just need to stop there. However, in the interview Kanye did say quote, "this is what frustration sounds like" At least he is aware.
To finish up i just thought the whole interview was a great roller coaster. I do hope Kanye is wrong when he says that it will be pulled off the internet. Oh yea.. Lol!! He also may be kind of paranoid. Zane Lowe ended it perfectly when he says at the end "man this was the most fucking intense interview ever."

Pentax K-5 review
Value & Verdict
Pentax K-5 review - Value
For £1180 the K-5 offers a whole lot for the money. Weather-sealing and super-fast continuous burst options aren't going to be easily found elsewhere at this price point. However, both the Canon 60D (£920 with 18-55mm kit lens) and Nikon D7000 (£1160 with 18-105mm) are, at the time of writing, more affordable purchase options, and both options have either faster or more complex focusing systems, so it's still a bit of a shame that Pentax hasn't broken considerable new ground in this area.
Weighing up everything that's featured for the cash and this camera is still a very attractive purchase option with a variety of unique features that will certainly appeal. Whether K-7 users will see an immediate need to upgrade is questionable however, given that the bulk of underlying construction and features is relatively similar.
Pentax K-5 review - Verdict
At first glance the K-5 may seem a lot like the K-7. While, in some respects, this is true, it's actually a camera that delivers quite a lot more. Image quality is stunning through a large portion of the ISO range and some of the unique features such as Auto Level Compensation really do add extra value. The fully weather sealed body and WR lenses make for robust use and the 7fps bust mode is great to have. The K-5's autofocus is the best yet, though we're still waiting for that truly next generation system to grace a Pentax camera. And while the K-5 may offer 1080p HD video, it's still some distance behind the competition - something that stills traditionalists are unlikely to be too fussed about. Apart from this and the limitations of an 18-55mm kit lens (we suggest you pick the more expensive 18-135mm kit), the K-5 has bags to offer, is generally good value and arguably the very best digital Pentax camera we've ever seen.

Blacks and Latinos made up 87% of the nearly 686,000 stop-and-frisks in New York City in 2011. According to the report, blacks made up 53% of the stops, Latinos at 34%, and whites about 9%.
"The nearly 686,000 stops conducted in 2011 equated to less than one stop per police officer per week among the 19,600 officers on patrol during the period," Deputy Commissioner for Public Information Paul Browne said in an email. Brooklyn's 75th Precinct, which covers East New York, Cypress Hills, Starrett City and City Line, saw the most stops, with 31,100—97% of them involved blacks and Hispanics. Source

Panelists: Francis Bonahon, Eric Friedlander, Jason Fulman, Cymra Haskell, Paul SobajeModerator: Kenneth AlexanderAll graduate students and postdocs are encouraged to come and ask questions about positioning themselves for their future careers.
I will discuss mixing of passive scalars by incompressible flows and measures of optimal mixing. In particular, I will present recent results concerning examples of flows that achieve the optimal theoretical rate in the case of flows with prescribed energy or enstrophy budget. These examples are related to loss of regularity for solutions of transport equations.
The appearance of a boundary layer (BL) is a ubiquitous phenomenon in applied mathematics: a BL occurs when the presence of a small parameter causes a sharp transition between the perturbed and the unperturbed regime. The concept of BL was introduced by Ludwig Prandtl to give an explanation to D'Alembert's paradox; Prandtl's 1904 paper would prove to be one of the most important fluid dynamics paper ever written. However, despite more than a century of investigations, many problems raised by Prandtl's BL theory still remain unsolved. Among them we mention the lack of a fully satisfactory mathematical theory of Prandtl's equations and the problem of the convergence, in the zero viscosity limit, of the Navier-Stokes solutions to the Euler solutions.In this talk after giving a review of some of the results that have been recently obtained in this area we shall consider an incompressible flow interacting with a boundary without assuming that the initial datum satisfies the no-slip condition at the boundary. A typical case when this situation occurs is the impulsively started disk. Other instances widely studied in the literature are when a vortical configuration, which is a steady solution of the Euler equations (like the thick core vortex or the vortex array), is assumed to interact instantaneously with a solid boundary.Focusing our analysis on the Navier-Stokes equations on a half-space, we shall construct the initialboundary layer corrector in the form of a Prandtl solution with incompatible data. This corrector is the first term of an asymptotic series that we shall prove to approximate, in the zero viscosity limit and for a short time, the Navier-Stokes solutions. Assuming analytic regularity in the tangential direction, we shall prove that this time does not depend on the viscosity.
In the late 60s a new area emerged in mathematical physics known as "Integrable Systems". Ideas and techniques of "Integrability" have had a significant impact in several areas of mathematics, science and engineering, from the proof of the Schottky problem in algebraic geometry, to optical communications. In this lecture, two such implications will be reviewed: (a) A novel method for analysing boundary value problems, which unifies the fundamental contributions to the analytical solution of PDEs of Fourier, Cauchy and Green, and also constructs a non-linearization of some of these results. This method has led to the emergence of new numerical techniques for solving linear elliptic PDEs in polygonal domains. (b) A new approach for solving the inverse problems arising in certain important medical imaging techniques, including Single Photon Emission Computerised Tomography (SPECT).
Motivated by the theory of hydrodynamic turbulence, L. Onsager conjectured in 1949 that solutions to the incompressible Euler equations with Holder regularity less than 1/3 may fail to conserve energy. C. DeLellis and L. Székelyhidi, Jr. have pioneered an approach to constructing such irregular flows based on an iteration scheme known as convex integration. This approach involves correcting "approximate solutions" by adding rapid oscillations which are designed to reduce the error term in solving the equation. In this talk, I will discuss an improved convex integration framework, which yields solutions with Holder regularity as much as 1/5-.
In this talk, I will present some recent results on the long-time behavior of non-negative solutions to the Cauchy problem for the Porous Medium Equation in the presence of variable density vanishing at infinity, [RV], [KRV].
One of the original motivations for the development of stochastic partial differential equations traces it's origins to the study of turbulence. In particular, invariant measures provide a canonical mathematical object connecting the basic equations of fluid dynamics to the statistical properties of turbulent flows. In this talk we discuss some recent results concerning inviscid limits in this class of measures for the stochastic Navier-Stokes equations and other related systems arising in geophysical and numerical settings.
The complexity of neurodegenerative and psychiatric diseases often requires the collection of numerous data types from multiple modalities. These can be genetic, imaging, clinical and biosample data. In combination, they can provide biomarkers critical to chart the progression of the disease and to measure the efficacy of therapeutic intervention. The difficulties lie in how can these diverse data from different subjects, collected across multiple laboratories on a wide range of instruments using non-identical protocols be aggregated and mined to discover meaningful patterns. Mapping the human brain, and the brains of other species, has long been hampered by the fact that there is substantial variance in both the structure and function of this organ among individuals within a species. Previous brain atlases have relied on information from, at best, a few samples to draw conclusions. These limitations and the lack of quantification for the variance in brain structure and function have limited the pace and accuracy of research in the field of neuroscience. There are numerous probabilistic atlases that describe specific subpopulations, measure their variability and characterize the structural differences between them. Utilizing data from structural, functional, diffusion MRI, along with gwas studies and clinical measures we have built atlases with defined coordinate systems creating a framework for mapping and relating diverse data across studies. This talk describes the development and application of theoretical framework and computational tools for the construction of probabilistic atlases of large numbers of individuals in a population. These approaches are useful in understanding multidimensional data and their relationships over time. A specific and important example of mapping multimodal data is the study of Alzheimer's. The dynamic changes that occur in brain structure and function throughout life make the study of degenerative disorders of the aged difficult. The Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) is a large national consortia established to collect, longitudinally, distributed and well described cohorts of age matched normals, mci's and Alzheimer's patients. It results from the abnormal accumulation of misfolded amyloid and tau proteins in neurons and the extracellular space, ultimately leading to cell death and progressive cognitive decline. The consequences of this insult can be seen using a variety of imaging and other data analyzed from the ADNI database.Essential elements in performing this type of population based research are the informatics infrastructure to assemble, describe, disseminate and mine data collections along with computational resources necessary for large scale processing of big data such as whole genome sequence data and imaging data. This talk also describes the methods we have employed to address these challenges.
In this lecture I will review work that concerns the behavior of surfaces and fronts in a periodic media that is highly oscillatory: minimal surfaces, whose area is weighted by a periodic factor, capillary drops sitting in a composite surface, the effective speed of flame propagation in periodic media.
I will talk about various ``mixing'' questions that have attracted interest recently. For instance, ``Can you stir your coffee to keep it hot for longer'', or ``How well can you stir cream into your coffee, and at what cost?''.Mathematically these questions translate into studying a negative Sobolev norm of a passively advected scalar. The study of such questions also involves very interesting connection Bressan's (still open!) rearrangement cost conjecture. I will spend most of the talk surveying recent results, and conclude with brief description of joint work with A. Kiselev, Xiaoqian Xu and myself.
Quickest change-point detection is a branch of statistics concerned with the design and analysis of reliable statistical machinery for rapid anomaly detection in ``live'' monitored data. The subject's current state-of-the-art detection procedure is the recently proposed Generalized Shiryaev--Roberts (GSR) procedure (it was proposed in 2008, but the paper was published only in 2011). Notwithstanding its ``young age'', the GSR procedure has already been shown to have very strong optimality properties not exhibited by such well-known mainstream procedures as the Cumulative Sum ``inspection scheme'' and the Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) chart. To foster and facilitate further research on the GSR procedure we propose a numerical method to evaluate the performance of the GSR procedure in a ``minimax-ish'' multi-cyclic setup where the procedure of choice is applied repetitively (cyclically) and the change is assumed to take place at an unknown time moment in a distant-future stationary regime. Specifically, the proposed method is based on the integral-equations approach and uses the collocation technique with the basis functions chosen so as to exploit a certain change-of-measure identity and the GSR detection statistic's unique martingale property. As a result, the method's accuracy and robustness improve, as does its efficiency since using the change-of-measure ploy the Average Run Length (ARL) to false alarm and the Stationary Average Detection Delay (STADD) are computed simultaneously. We show that the method's rate of convergence is quadratic and supply a tight upperbound on its error. We conclude with a case study and confirm experimentally that the proposed method's accuracy and rate of convergence are robust with respect to three factors: a) partition fineness (coarse vs. fine), b) change magnitude (faint vs. contrast), and c) the level of the ARL to false alarm (low vs. high). Since the method is designed not restricted to a particular data distribution or to a specific value of the GSR detection statistic's headstart, this work may help gain greater insight into the characteristics of the GSR procedure and aid a practitioner to design the GSR procedure as needed while fully utilizing its potential.This is joint work with Grigory Sokolov (Department of Mathematics, U. of Southern California) and Wenyu Du (Department of Mathematical Sciences, SUNY Binghamton).
Periodic waves are important features of solutions of nonlinear evolution systems in such varied contexts as optics, hydrodynamics, and reaction diffusion.A formal description of their behavior under perturbation is given by WKB expansion in terms of modulations in phase and local waveform, as pioneered by Whitham, Howard-Kopell, and Serre in various contexts. The Whitham modulation equations take the form, to lowest order, of a first-order system of conservation laws, whose characteristic speeds play a role in the nonlinear setting analogous to that of group velocity in the linear case, giving the rate of propagation of localized wave packets.In this talk we discuss recent results giving rigorous verification of this formal Whitham description using a combination of Bloch transform techniques, and techniques originating from shock wave stability and the theory of conservation laws for efficiently extracting nonlinear modulations in phase. Notably, this approach allows the treatment of situations for which the Whitham equations have multiple characteristic speeds, whereas previous techniques based on renormalization methods were limited to the case of a single characteristic speed. Indeed, the techniques introduced apply also in situations far from a periodic background, to which the Whitham equations no longer directly apply.
In the past decade, the study of the fluid dynamics of swimming organisms has flourished. With the possibility of using fabricated robotic micro swimmers for drug delivery, or harnessing the power of natural microorganisms to transport loads, the need for a full description of flow properties is evident. At a larger scale, the swimming of a simple vertebrate, the lamprey, can shed light on the coupling of neural signals to muscle mechanics and passive body dynamics in animal locomotion.We will present recent progress in the development of a multiscale computational model of the lamprey that examines the emergent swimming behavior of the coupled fluid-muscle-body system. At the micro scale, we will examine the function of a flagellum of a dinoflagellate, a type of phytoplankton. We hope to demonstrate that, even when the body kinematics at zero Reynolds number are specified, there are still interesting fluid dynamic questions that have yet to be answered.

So is this a full open MMO or is it instance based?I wish there was a trial --dslreports.com
Full open.
OH yeah tons of places in this game where I just stop and take in the scenery. My wife even stopped one time and was like wow that game is pretty.
have everything done for the monthly besides finding all the jumping puzzles...it is annoying, but at the same time it's forcing me to explore areas which i've never been to, which is coolso much to do in the game, just not enough time i guess that's good in a way..if you wanted... you could just do jumping puzzles daily, to get about 20 grand chests dialy if you were good at them
I heard about glitching in LA. Get on at a high traffic time keep relogging get into different overflows and its suppose to count as finding one each time.
I'd be careful with that....doesn't seem like that would be too hard for them to detect / track down.
exploiting glitches = banAnet done it before
Yeah. I just read it on Reddit. I've never tried it.
hear no evil... see no evil!
Screen shots still don't do thia game justice. It's just something you gotta see live.
yeah I don't get it... something about the fluidity of it gets lost in screenshots
I heard about glitching in LA. Get on at a high traffic time keep relogging get into different overflows and its suppose to count as finding one each time.
OMG someone has their BIG BOY pants on!and CoF chest and gauntlets!and that sword! where did you get it? what it called?
LOL. I have the COF pants too. What if I told you it was a level 15 sword? Would you laugh at other games level 15 items? Called Jotun Greatsword. I have a 80 exotic sword reskinned.»wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Jotun_Greatsword
same... I had my 80 exotic GS, transmuted to level 20 GS... lol
I farmed close to 900 shard or whatever you call it thingies from COF in like 3 days. You're looking at a full set in less than a week. I want to Arah set but groups don't form to farm it as hard as COF. Twilight Arbor set looks pretty interesting as well. Or maybe the Norn Dungeon with the bear helm would be cool.
what am I missing?how does gw2lfg work if people are on different servers?can you run dungeons together even if on different server?
So theres more to look for when lvl 80 besides doing wvw? o.o--dslreports.com
ascended gear = some stat improvement over exotic, slightskins = grind those dungeons son
i'm also stock piling gems, in the hopes that future GW2 expansions will be purchasable with gems
what am I missing?how does gw2lfg work if people are on different servers?can you run dungeons together even if on different server?
So theres more to look for when lvl 80 besides doing wvw? o.o
what's worse than jumping puzzles? your wife nagging you WHILE you try to do jumping puzzles...suffer
EERRRUUU!!! He learned how to chat. Atleast in whispers. He is learning.
Going to go out on a limb here, and say for the most part I do not like dungeons in GW2.Started with my frist AC experience... and continues to now.They are hard... who cares, that's not the issue.the issue is gimmic mechanics vs. rewards.I understand Anet has different teams for different aspects of the game... and it shows... there is a total disconnect between Open World and dungeons experience. There is nothing cohesive about it. 2 different games.As great and entertaining the open world is, is how non-enjoyable dungeons are.The only way they can make the game challenging in dungeons without the holy trinity, is by introducing mechanics to compensate for it. And at times, it just simply isn't enjoyable and seems forced

Reiko Aylesworth cast as Ming-Na's life partner on "Stargate Universe"
With its October premiere date approaching, new info is starting to emerge about Stargate Universe, the Syfy channel's latest Stargate spinoff. Here's the official description of the show:
SGU follows a band of soldiers, scientists and civilians, who must fend for themselves as they are forced through a Stargate when their hidden base comes under attack. The desperate survivors emerge aboard an ancient ship, which is locked on an unknown course and unable to return to Earth.
Faced with meeting the most basic needs of food, water and air, the group must unlock the secrets of the ship's Stargate to survive. The danger, adventure and hope they find on board the Destiny will reveal the heroes and villains among them.
Yes, it sounds a lot like Star Trek Voyager, but since I liked that series, I'm not complaining (yet).
In April we reported that the series would include a leading lesbian character named Camille, played by Ming-Na (Vanished, ER, The Joy Luck Club), who has a long-term partner back on Earth.
Last week, consulting producer Joseph Mallozzi revealed on his blog that Camille's long-term, life partner, Sharon, will be played by Reiko Aylesworth in episode 7 ("Life").
Aylesworth as Michelle on 24 (left); at the 2008 JCPenney Asian Excellence Awards
Most people know Aylesworth — an Evanston, IL native of Dutch, Welsh, and Japanese ancestry, who studied neuroscience at the University of Washington before acting became her full-time profession — from her long-running role as Michelle on 24, but she has guest-starred on several series since then (including Lost and CSI, and is currently doing theater in New York.
Aylesworth's SGU character Sharon was described in the casting call as a lead guest character, possibly recurring, who is "Sensitive, soulful" and will be asked to do "strong emotional scenes."
In the casting sides we've seen, Camille and Sharon share dinner, kisses, and a tearful conversation when they briefly re-unite via a long-range communications device that allows the stranded crew members to make a short visit home.
We finally know more about Ming-Na's character. Here's Camille's bio on the show's new official site:
Human resources executive Wray finds herself the highest ranking member of the International Oversight Committee (IOA) onboard the Destiny. Like many of those stranded on the ship, she is devastated by the separation from loved ones back on earth.
There are several short video interviews with Ming-Na on the site about the her role on the show, and this pic of her in character:
Syfy has begun to run short promos for the series, like this one:
It's unlikely that Camille and Sharon will have much screen time, since the point of the show is that the group is stranded on the other side of the galaxy, but it looks like we'll see a lot of Camille on the series. That's no small thing since she's the first lesbian in a lead role on a Stargate series, and the first Asian American lesbian on any primetime broadcast or basic cable show in America, and both milestones are long overdue.
What do you think of the Ming-Na/Aylesworth pairing?
Thanks to AE reader Aled for the tip!

Ok, just swapped out my map and dome lights with led's from
The map lights are great and you can change them without taking down the console. Just use 2 tiny screwdrivers at once on the front side of the lens, it will pop out. Then you need to use the scredriver to pry the bulb down. It doesn't take alot of effort. But be careful not to break the bulb. I didn't break anything, it was really easy.
The dome light imo is not bright enough. I used the 4410-x9 40mm and upgraded to the natural white for all the bulbs. I am going to research the website and may even go with the circuitboard type dome light.

I fucking hate this gif. There is no way someone can be on all of those medications at once and have no serious interactions. I know what's wrong, your psychiatrist.
i'm gonna call bullshit on that statement. i have Cystic Fibrosis, and i take WAY MORE medications per day than that. Without any negative interaction.
That's only 6 pill bottles. Seriously. Not that many.
… okay even I'm taking more drugs then that and I'm not terminally ill.
I should make a gif about it.

Saturday November 24, 2012: Atlantic City, NJ: A sold out Historic Boardwalk Hall chanted "We Want Hockey" throughout the night, well, on this night they got hockey. It was a charity game raising money for the victims that were affected by Hurricane Sandy. All the proceeds from the game were going to the NJ Hurricane Relief Fund, the Empire State Relief Fund and the American Red Cross. Caesars Atlantic City teamed up with Brad Richards of the Rangers and Scott Hartnell of the Flyers to put the event together.
A quick look at the two team's: Team New York: Vinny Guadagnino (coach – Jersey Shore star) Brad Richards(Captain), Bobby Ryan, Corey Perry, Ville Leino, Jeff Halpern, James Neal, Brian Boyle, Matt Martain, Taylor Pyatt, Daniel Alfredsson, Arron Asham, Dan Girardi, Marc Staal, Steve Eminger, Mike Komisarek and Henrik Lundqvist. Team New Jersey: Rick Tocchet (coach) Scott Hartnell (captain), Steven Stamkos, Wayne Simmonds, Daniel Carcillo, Simon Gagne, Justin Williams, David Clarkson, James Van Riemsdyk, Jody Shelley, Steve Downie, Kimmo Timonen, Braydon Coburn, PK Subban, John Carlson, Andy Greene and Martin Brodeur.
10,792 fans were treated to a very exciting hockey game, with some of hockey's biggest star's. James Neal would get team NY out to a quick lead netting his first of four goal's at 2:51 of the first period. Neal would score again at 6:55 of the first period and Team NY would just be too much for Team NJ on this night. New York's netminder Henrik Lundqvist was looking to be in play-off form standing on his head stopping 56 of 62 shots that he faced. Brad Richards and James Neal skated very well together, of course they did play together for three years in Dallas. When the dust had cleared Team New York would get the victory 10-6.
All the game worn jersey's from the game will be auctioned off by Steiner Sports. Proceeds from all the jerseys will go to the Hurricane victims.

The offensive line played well. In his first NFL start Austin Howard played great, neutralizing star defensive end Mario Williams. Howard was conistant in pass protection, while also displaying ability to run block at the point of attack to help open holes for Jets runningbacks. As a whole the line played better than expected with few penalities, and no glaring mistakes in regards to blocking assignments and protection schemes. Although the run game lacked wide open holes in the run game, the Jets line provided enough day light to consitantly gain yardage and put the offense in good down and distance siuations on second and third down.
Tim Tebow was less than stellar. In five rushing attempts Tebow gained 11 yards, failing to attempt or catch a pass and failing to record a tackle on special teams. Although used often, Tebow's opportunities were insifnificant as he was relegated to either handing off the football on a jet sweep, or keeping it himself to carry it up the middle. Tebow did account for a delay of game penalty when taking the field with the Wildcat package in the redzone, something that no coach wants to see. The role for Tim Tebow is certainly larged than what was displayed today as the game was in hand rather early, providing no reason to show anything but the most vanilla of Wildcat plays. With Sanchez performing great Jets fans
