Need the perfect Campsite close to LA: here it is: you are a little bit up the hill, overlook the ocean and the coast and you feel like the rich and famous. It's a great spot to explore the North-West of LA… so we decided to extend our 2-day stay to a 4-day stay, so we can do one beach day between all ...

... was exhilarating. Next door was a new ride, Transformers. This is where the jumping the queue ticket was worth it. We saved at least 30 minutes and went in to experience in 3D a being part of a fighting scene in the transformers movie. It was rather well done.
Outside I got a few photos of Bumblebee and Megatron which were taking photos with children. We opted instead to go to the next ride which was from the mummy movie. It involved accelerating rapidly forward and ...

After rising at about 5:30am local time, we showered, dressed, packed up and checked out. Our cab brought us to a hectic LAX. As we passed the domestic airline terminals (Southwest, United, American, etc) we could see lines snaking outside of the terminals and waaaaaaay down the street. Good God!

The next day I decided to take it a little easier. After getting up rather late I headed off to a nearby DFO called "The Castle" (sadly not in the shape of an actual castle!) for ...

Despite a dismal first half, Metacapital Management was able to salvage last year with a strong second half.
The New York-based hedge fund's flagship was up 0.53% last year. That's not impressive compared either to the average hedge fund, which rose in the mid- to high-single digits, or the stock market, which soared 30%. But it's better than it could have been: The $1.23 billion Mortgage Opportunities Fund fell 10.2% in the second quarter and was down more than 8% in the first half.
But, firm founder Deepak Narula wrote, Metacapital returned nearly 10% in the second half to avoid a losing year, at least.
Metacapital's Rising Rates Fund, which debuted in May, did much better, returning 20.11% in its first eight months.

Margaret from West Hartford, CT– Verified Buyer
Not such a fan of this lamp. Mad quite cheaply and the wand that moves the bulb part has fallen off many times. Screwing it back in is a problem as it doesn't line up properly.

Ron from Philadelphia, PA– Verified Buyer
Great desk or bedside lamp, a must have if you like to read in bed. The surface mounted electric outlet makes it ideal for recharging your phone or plugging in an adding machine.
Just fantastic.
DA from San Francisco, CA– Verified Buyer
I ordered two of these. There is a slight difference between the lamps I got (model # P210-L) and the lamp shown in the picture (model # P210) - instead of the black plug in the base, mine has a transparent on/off switch, that also works as a dimmer if you hold it down. Perfectly balanced design. Absolutely love it.
Reading Lamp, Really
MAYRA T from North Miami Beach, FL– Verified Buyer
The lamp is beautiful but in terms of quality or amount of light for reading is as good as any-one that one can get for a fraction of the price.
Gayle G from Douglasville. GA
This lamp is perfect for the bedroom on the nightstand. The brushed nickel finish gives it a very contemporary look. We did however have to make an adjustment or two as the balance arm was too loose at setup, otherwise a perfect lamp for reading in bed.
Virgil from Philadelphia, PA– Verified Buyer
great bedside lamp that has two light settings and a receptacle for plugging in a phone or computer charger. Love it.
Great lamp
The mad remodeler from Milwaukee– Verified Buyer– Top 1000 Reviewer
Good light for reading, great Kovacs quality, as always. heavy base that wont slide off the nightstand, convenient wand to position where you want it.
Decent shape with reasonable price
Chi chen from NEW ROCHELLE, NY– Verified Buyer
I liked the brushed nickel finished simple profile with heavier metal base. And don't forget that there are two switches for general work reading and bedtime reading purpose.
Excellent Lighting
AEK from Iowa City, IA– Verified Buyer
I bought this lamp to put on a nightstand so that I could read in bed. I like the duel switch--when it's on high, it provides excellent light--the contemporary styling, and the ease with which I can adjust the angle of the shade. Well worth the price.
I would buy this product again
Jsam from Palm Desert, CA– Verified Buyer
I use this lamp as in my bedroom as a reading lamp. It is extremely easy to addjust the angle that is most comfortable to read by and it has that contemporary look that I wanted. It gives excellent lighting.

text: Barry Gibb Demo - What Kind of Fool By Michael Barry Gibb Demo - What Kind of Fool. Guilty is an album released by Barbra Streisand... more »Barry Gibb Demo - What Kind of Fool. Guilty is an album released by Barbra Streisand in 1980. After the success of the Bee Gees in 1977/1978 there was some time to perform songwriting for other artists and Barbra Streisand asked Barry Gibb to write an album for her.[1] It became her best-selling album to date with sales (according to Streisand's official website) of over 20 million copies[2] and was produced by the Bee Gees' Barry Gibb and the Bee Gees' regular production team of Albhy Galuten and Karl Richardson. The title track, a duet between Streisand and Gibb, won the Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal in 1981, and was a #3 Billboard Hot 100 hit. The first single "Woman in Love" became one of the most successful songs of Streisand's music career and spent a total of three weeks at the #1 position in the Billboard chart. "What Kind of Fool", another duet with Gibb, reached #10. The fourth single, "Promises", a more disco-oriented track released in May 1981, reached as high as #48. This song was also released on Streisand's first commercially-released 12" disco single as a solo artist following her 1979 duet with Donna Summer and two "promotional" 12" singles released for "Shake Me, Wake Me (When It's Over) in 1975, and "The Main Event/Fight" in 1979. Streisand released a sequel to this album, Guilty Pleasures, in 2005, also produced and largely written by Gibb. « less Published August 20, 2010 390 views More Info » Full Credits Michael Uploader Stats & Data 1 Funny Votes 5 Die Votes 392 Views Published August 20, 2010 Categories: Music Keywords: Barry Gibb Demo Guilty Album What Kind of Fool Bee Gees Up Next: Here's How You're Getting F**ked AUTOPLAY Up Next In: 10 Barack Obama on 60 Minutes Talks Osama Bin Laden Drunk History Christmas Creepy Weatherman Fan Gay of Thrones S3 EP 6 Recap: Giving Beat Face Follow Facebook Twitter Tumblr Instagram Advertisement Browse Related Comments 110+ more View All ▶ Michael Vaguely Related Videos Vaguely RelatedPics & Words Advertisement From Around the Web ZergNet

2014 MLB preview: A look at the NL East
A look at the best, and the worst, in the National League East
New faces, places
As if the Nationals didn't have enough good young starting pitchers, they traded with Detroit to get gritty former Mariner Doug Fister (the thought of the M's trading him for basically nothing in return still hurts). The Nats' top rival, the Atlanta Braves, countered by signing free-agent starter Ervin Santana, who pitched last year in Kansas City and has seemed to revive his career. The Phillies added starter A.J. Burnett, who resurrected his career in Pittsburgh. Outfielder Curtis Granderson changed teams but not cities by going from the Yankees to the Mets, who also added starter Bartolo Colon, who I think is 90 years old. The Marlins added veterans like catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia, second baseman Rafael Furcal and first baseman Garrett Jones, but it won't matter. They're still going to finish in last place.
Moving up
The Nationals were favorites last year to win the division, but they finished 10 games behind Atlanta and missed out on the playoffs. With a rotation that includes Stephen Strasburg, Gio Gonzalez, Jordan Zimmermann and Fister, they look like not only the best team in the division, but the best in baseball.
Moving down
It was just a couple of years ago the Phillies seemed so great with Roy Halladay, Cliff Lee and Cole Hamels at the top of their rotation and an everyday lineup that included Chase Utley, Jimmy Rollins and Ryan Howard. But injuries and aging ruined lofty predictions, and they look like a team in serious need of a rebuild.
Fantasy sleeper
Freak injuries (appendicitis and getting hit in the face with a pitch) curtailed Atlanta outfielder Jason Heyward's production last year, but he is immensely talented and, at age 25, will probably continue to improve. He could become one of the game's biggest stars.
Fantasy bust
Mets outfielder Curtis Granderson hit 40-plus homers in 2011 and 2012, but that was at hitter-friendly Yankee Stadium. He now plays at a pitcher's park and he didn't seem the same last year in between injuries.
Best player
There are about 10 players you could pick, but how about Giancarlo Stanton, a guy who can still put up big numbers despite having little talent around him. The 24-year-old Marlins outfielder has been limited to 123 and 116 games the past two seasons. Look for him to lead the league in home runs if he can stay healthy.
Best pitcher
The Phillies' Cliff Lee. You could have made a good case for any of the Nationals' top three, but former Mariner Lee keeps rolling along with some of the best numbers in baseball, like last year's 222 strikeouts and 32 walks, a 2.87 ERA and a WHIP of 1.01.
Comeback candidate
The Phillies' Cole Hamels. He started last year 1-9 en route to an 8-14 season. But he pitched much better than his record indicates and particularly so after he noticed a flaw in his delivery in May. He will start the season on the DL but is expected to return in April.
Manager on the hot seat
The Nationals' Matt Williams. The first-year manager takes over for Davey Johnson, who retired. The pressure will be on from the start as anything less than an NL pennant will be a disappointment.
Injury issues
The Braves have been hit hard as top young starters Kris Medlen (15-12, 3.11 ERA in 2013) and Brandon Beachy each had Tommy John surgery this past month, and fellow starter Mike Minor is starting the season on the disabled list.
Rookies to watch
Miami outfielder Christian Yelich, 22, who showed some ability after being called up in late July last year (.288 BA, 4 HRs) and Mets catcher Travis d'Arnaud, who New York got in the R.A. Dickey trade with Toronto.
By the numbers
2 Years the Marlins have won more than 87 games, and also their number of World Series titles (1997 and 2003)
5 Consecutive losing seasons for the Mets

NORILSK, Russia — Mukum Sidikov's grandfather left Norilsk after surviving the labor camps of Soviet dictator Josef Stalin.
Sidikov, caretaker of the world's most northerly mosque, retraced his grandfather's footsteps in search of well-paid work in the Russian Arctic.
Now he estimates the city is home to about 50,000 Muslims — just under one-quarter of the region's population of about 210,000. Most are from Azerbaijan and the Russian republic of Dagestan and work as traders or construction workers.
But as pay levels no longer compare so favorably with other Russian cities and Norilsk restricts access for foreigners, Sidikov says fellow Muslims no longer come here.
"The population is getting smaller. People are leaving," said Sidikov, 40, an ethnic Uzbek born and raised in Kyrgyzstan.
The Nurd Kamal mosque stands exposed on the edge of modern Norilsk, where temperatures drop 50 degrees Celsius below zero (minus 58 degrees Fahrenheit). Polar winds whip its golden roof and snowdrifts pile against the turquoise walls in winter.
"People work for pennies. They come here and lose their health. Every second person is ill," said Sidikov.
A city built on one of the world's richest metals deposits, Norilsk's first smelter was built by Gulag prisoners in the 1930s and today three plants send smoke thick with sulphur into the air.
The city was last year named among the world's 10 most polluted places by independent environmental action group The Blacksmith Institute. Its main employer, Norilsk Nickel, is investing heavily in cutting emissions.
There are over 20 million Muslims in Russia, approximately 14 percent of the country's 140 million population. The Central Asians and Dagestanis are likely to be Sunni, while those from Azerbaijan are most likely to be Shia. There is no antagonism between the sects in Norilsk and many Soviet Muslims are not among the strictest practitioners of Islam.
"There are many Muslims, but few come to the mosque. They work all day and in the evening they are tired," Sidikov said.
The mosque, opened in 1998, was built by Mukhtad Bekmeyev, an ethnic Tatar and Norilsk native now residing in the Black Sea city of Sochi, nearly 4,000 kilometers away. He named the mosque after his parents and will pay for its restoration this year.

2yo with fever

My 2yo has had a mild fever, 38 - 39 degrees for 24 hours, would you take him to the doctors? I've given panadol once. He has a history of ear infections but he doesn't have a runny nose this time so I'm sure it's not that. He is eating and drinking okay but more grumpy than normal
Anyway my question is, would you take your toddler to the after hours doctor if he had a fever for 24 hours?

Posted 04 December 2012 - 06:55 PM
I'd want someone to look in his ears but would wait until the next day.
Posted 04 December 2012 - 06:57 PM
If he is otherwise fine, keeping fluids down and not overly stressed or agitated I would treat with panadol and not worry about the doctor
Posted 04 December 2012 - 06:57 PM
Did his temp come down with the panadol? If it didn't I would take him. If it is responding to panadol I would manage it and keep an eye on him overnight and see the dr in the morning.
You can also call the GP hotline 1800 022 222

I would. Can't hurt, might help. I say this as a health professional, especially since, as far as I can tell from your post, Panadol hasn't reduced the fever.

No I wouldn't. I may take him the next day, though, as I hate not knowing what is wrong with them. Once they can talk I use their behaviour as a guide for need to see GP.
Posted 04 December 2012 - 09:32 PM
I wouldn't bother. If he's drinking fluids and eating a bit of food, I really think it would be a waste of time. Just ride it out with rest, fluids and panadol.
Posted 04 December 2012 - 09:36 PM
Take him to doc- I took my son last week because of on and off fever for a few days and it turned out he had a bad ear infection! I had no idea- no other symptoms but fever. I felt so guilty for leaving it for three days- he had to go on antibiotics and the doc said he must be in pain
Posted 04 December 2012 - 09:40 PM
Not sure where you are, but there is a virus going around at the moment that causes fevers for a couple of days, as well as sore throat and tummy. DD1 had it over the weekend, it only lasted 2 days. DD2 has it now, and a couple of friends' kids have also had it. We're in NW Sydney.
I wouldn't rush to the doc tonight, unless the temp spikes really quickly and can't be brought down.

Last week during congressional testimony from State Department officials who were on the ground in Libya, we heard over and over again that more security for the consulate in Benghazi was requested but denied. We also heard repeatedly from Democrats, including Ranking Member of the House Oversight Committee Elijah Cummings, claiming a lack of funding was at fault for less security in Benghazi during the time of the attack on 9/11 that left four Americans dead. State Department officials said funding had nothing to do with the situation and now, Chairman Darrell Issa has revealed the State Department is sitting...

This is a real Norman castle, right down to the dungeons and maze of dark flagstone corridors—one room even has a bathroom hidden behind a bookcase. Antiques and rich fabrics lend the rooms a sumptuous feel. Those in the courtyard annex are less expensive, but also less atmospheric. Join in the merriment of the Friday and Saturday Elizabethan banquets or dine in the modern and surprisingly inexpensive Black Knight. The hotel is just east of Chester-le-Street, about 8

A piece on the work of Walerian Borowczyk.
Since he started as film critic for the Chicago Sun-Times in 1967, and began covering movies locally and at international film festivals, Roger Ebert has met and interviewed countless movie idols, artists and unknowns -- some of them even before they became famous. There's hardly a major figure in the history of movies, from the last part of the 20th century into the 21st, that he hasn't encountered.
The Oscar-nominated Djimon Hounsou has made an impact in high-profile dramas like "Blood Diamond," "In America," and "Amistad," but he joins a unique roster this weekend when "How to Train Your Dragon 2" opens: the animated blockbuster villain. The charismatic star sat down with us the day before his film's opening to discuss what it feels like to play the bad guy, the process behind voice acting, and even drop some thoughts on "Guardians of the Galaxy" and the fate of Black Panther, a Marvel hero he's been attached to at multiple times over the years.
How did you get involved with "How to Train Your Dragon 2"?
I can't quite remember how it came about but I got a call from DreamWorks, asking me to come in and try out the voice of Drago Bludvist. Right then and there, on hearing the name of the character, that really kind of did it for me. I started flying around with that name and what could be the back story of such a character, such a torn soul. Right then and there, I started trying to pick him apart.
Playing an animated villain comes with such history because there have been so many iconic ones over the years. You're joining a catalog of characters that give children nightmares. Did you think at all of the legacy of being a part of that roster?
It's a part of most actors to want to be in an animated feature; to extend the legacy of your career. In that essence, yes, I did think about it. I was looking forward to one day having the luxury of being a part of something like that.
You're such a physical actor. When I think of your work, it's usually accompanied by a strong physical presence for your character. What does it mean as an actor for you to have that taken away and having to convey character purely through voice?
I didn't quite understand the process up until experiencing making this over a year. It took a YEAR. Going back and forth with the voice. There were lapses in between but, at the same time, you were going in and revisiting some of the lines you already recorded and you're never really interacting with any other actor. And, so, that side of it felt a little clinical at first. At the same time, I felt extremely liberated with the experience of just being you, the mic, and trying to be as theatrical as you can be. That's the range with those animations.
So it gave you a lot of vocal freedom?
Yes, oh yes.
And another tool for an actor is a partner. You never worked with any other cast members?
No. Most of us only met for the first time at the Cannes Film Festival for the presentation there.
You have two really crucial scenes of dialogue with Jay Baruchel and Gerard Butler's characters. Did you do those with another actor? Or was it just someone reading lines?
Mostly with my director, Dean.
How hard is that?
Again, it gives you some understanding of imagination. You let your imagination fly. You can surrender to that imagination and go a long way and far and do things that wouldn't seem plausible at first—to be acting by yourself.
Do you think it opens up new tools for you as an actor as you return to live-action?
YES. Absolutely, absolutely.
Did they give you a sketch of the character?
I had an early sketch of the character but he was still being developed. I had an early sketch. But it was the name that really did it for me. The physicality didn't really matter to me. It was the essence of a character of that nature, a man so in need to indoctrinate dragons to form an army; why would you form an army if not to conquer mankind?
Were the directors or you ever concerned about the character being "too scary"?
You know, I never once thought about that. I've heard the question since—a bad guy character for a children's story, did you have to tone it down? NO. I went OFF. That's the beauty.
Do you think sometimes maybe it's good for children to be scared? Sometimes we coddle children.
Absolutely. Sometimes we coddle children. I think they are so much more ready than we think they are. It's a dark film but it speaks loud and with so many educational attributes that speak for the kids these days. Kids, in our social world, have displaced families—a father who is displaced from his kids and wife. It deals with that and it deals with the understanding of the human world that we live in with animals, and having to have a thing for somebody who may be somewhat handicapped. It deals with that issue and living in a world with "normal people." Loving "normal people" and being loved back. Tolerance. All of that. I feel like the reason that this film speaks volumes is because it's not just for children. What a wonderful thing to see: A child who has been displaced from his mother for his entire life who comes to find the mother. "Should I accept you or not accept you? How come you never came to see me?" All that. It deals with all of those issues. I think that's quite a beautiful, educational tool.
Do you discuss these thematic issues with Dean before doing your part? Or was it purely plot and character?
It was not approached thematically. I did not see the whole script right from get-go but I sort of, eventually, came to it. It's not necessarily something you talk about: "We're working on this theme line in the film." We're there to give essence to the story and be creative behind closed doors. You come in and lend your voice to it.
When I mentioned coming to talk to you, responses about favorite projects of yours ranged from "In America" to Paula Abdul videos. You have such a diverse resume. What are the projects you remember fondly as key moments?
The things that stand out for me are films like "Blood Diamond," "Amistad," "In America," "Four Feathers"—all those films speak of social issues and social change. I like stories that have a social impact and social attributes to them. That's the whole reason we make films: to broaden our limited view of things and to see how life is evolving elsewhere. How they're dealing with struggles empowers you.
Is that the first thing you look for with a new project? Something important thematically?
Yes and no. A lot of times we also have to live and work. You have to make money to pay rent. In that respect, I don't think you can be so demanding. Those great stories are not the normal stories that come on a daily basis. It's a struggle to land those roles. Everybody is looking for the good parts.
How excited should we be for "Guardians of the Galaxy"?
(Laughs.) We should be VERY excited. We should be very excited and I'm not quite sure how my director James Gunn…his mind is "Wow." I have not seen the final cut yet. But wow.
Is the Blank Panther ever going to happen?
Ya know. I think it's WAY overdue. Disney and Marvel Comics: Come on, people. Let's create a superhero for the minorities, the African diaspora and for the African continent. Come on. It's about time.

High demand brings law firm to Cumbria
Last updated at 14:42, Tuesday, 19 February 2013
Law firm Napthens has opened an office in Penrith following increased client demand in Cumbria.
Napthens already has offices in Preston, Blackburn, Blackpool and Chorley, as well as acting for a number of agricultural clients as an official panel law firm of the NFU.
Napthens' Rural team will have a 'significant presence' in the town, at Agriculture House, Cromwell Road, with three dedicated staff including Geoff Tomlinson, Rural partner, based there.
Geoff is joined at the Penrith office by new recruits Alex Sykes and Catherine Courtney.
Solicitor Alex has joined Napthens from a small rural practice in north Cumbria, before which he worked as a professional forest manager giving him a unique insight into the sector. Catherine joins in an administrative capacity in the office.
Andrew Holden, head of Rural at Napthens, will divide his time between Penrith and his base in Lancashire.
He said: "We have been able to look after our clients well from our existing offices but as our rural service has grown we felt that a move to Cumbria with a permanent facility in Penrith would be a great boost.
"The appointment of Alex and Catherine means we have a significant Rural team as we move to cement our place as a leading law firm in this specialised sector. We see the office in Penrith as a base to service our clients throughout Cumbria.
"We are also looking forward to working in partnership with our colleagues at the NFU in Cumbria to the benefit of members' business interests."
As one of only 16 NFU panel firms in the country, Napthens provides a range of services covering agricultural law and other legal issues affecting farmers, their families and employees, landowners and rural businesses.
Ian Leigh, chief executive of Napthens, added: "Our Rural service is at the heart of our Penrith office.
"Napthens is committed to Cumbria and we will use this move as an opportunity to understand the needs of local businesses and create a platform to develop our commercial legal services in the area.
"Cumbria represents an exciting challenge for us as a law firm, and the latest stage of growth in the business following a successful 12 months."
Robert Sheasby, NFU regional director, said: "As an NFU recommended legal panel firm, NFU Cumbrian members have always been keen to use Napthens as they have been selected for their expertise, quality advice in rural and agricultural issues, and are carefully monitored to ensure that service standards are maintained.
"Andrew Holden and his team are keen to forge links with our Cumbrian farmer members and use the NFU Legal Assistance Scheme to provide members with cost effective legal support.
"By being based at the Penrith office we now have a great rural centre with Napthens and Mike Sanderson the NFU Cumbria county adviser all under one roof, a one stop shop for agricultural expertise in the county."

'Could Rams fans get a little love?'
Posted by ESPN.com's Mike Sando
Tyler from Chicago writes: Mike, why was there no coverage of the Rams' last preseason game? I have read your thoughts about the other NFC West teams in their last exhibitions. I understand the Rams are often an afterthought in the NFL, but could Rams fans get a little love from a decent outing last Thursday? I can't remember the last time the starters scored a touchdown in the preseason, and that is not an exaggeration. Thanks.
I spoke with Rams kicker Josh Brown during a visit to training camp earlier this month. I'll provide a transcript of our conversation here to help feed your Rams fix, indented to help differentiate from my initial answer to you.
Mike Sando: How good will you be on special teams this season?
Josh Brown: We're going to be really good. Really good. We've got Donnie (Jones) returning, Chris (Massey) is returning, so we're stable in our punting and snapping. And I think our field goals are OK, doing a pretty consistent job right now. Our coverage is only going to get better and we got up to No. 2 in the league last year. I mean, we were really good. We're fast. We've got some young, new coaches, which I think is going to carry us because they are going to be able to sustain a lot of energy whenever we get tired. But we've got a lot of pluses here. We're still looking for that breakout return guy, but we've got Derek Stanley, who is a solid returner. I mean, we don't have a Devin Hester. We don't have a Leon Washington yet, and hopefully he'll break out this year.
Mike Sando: The roster has changed quite a bit from last season. How much will that affect the core on special teams?
Josh Brown: I think it will be very similar. You've still got David Vobora and Chris Chamberlain, Todd Johnson and Quinton Culberson. There are a few guys that are going to be gone that were really good last year. Gary Stills was like a moving wall. I mean, he is literally probably the best special-teams player I have ever seen, especially at 35 years old. He is the strongest person I have ever seen. He's unbelievable. He was amazing. If he wasn't so dinged up for being so rough for so many years, he would be a Pro Bowler. When you average 30 special-teams tackles a year -- average -- that is unheard of. If guys have 15, they think they are going to the Pro Bowl, you know what I mean? And this guy averaged 30. He's special. But sometimes your age is your enemy.
Mike Sando: Who on special teams could break out this season?
Josh Brown: I think you're still going to see a lot of the guys that were with us last year that were making a big impact. I still think Quinton Culberson is a great R5/L5. I think you are going to see David Vobora and Chris Chamberlain, guys that are strong special-teams players that are always in the mix. Todd Johnson led the team in special-teams tackles for the last couple years and is a big leader on our special teams.
Mike Sando: What makes a good R5/L5 player?
Josh Brown: It depends on what they are returning, but R5/L5s, you are looking at guys who are either splitting that wedge or coming right off the side of it, and guys that demand a lot of attention.
Mike Sando: The league outlawed the three-man wedge on returns. What affect will that have on the Rams?
Josh Brown: I don't think it's necessarily going to change as far as coverage goes. They are going to have to make some adjustments on their returns and who they are blocking and when, how deep they are setting things. There will be some timing changes, I think.
Brown's family was at training camp on the day we spoke. They were waiting for him while we spoke. Once I realized it, I suggested he might find more value in visiting with them than discussing three-man wedge rules with me. I'm sure it was a tough call for him, but hopefully the Brown family enjoyed their time together.

Australia get happy returns from Mitchells in Perth
PERTH (Reuters) - Australia's gamble on a rag-tag band of rookies and fringe players to overhaul their pace bowling unit paid rich dividends at the WACA on Friday, giving the hosts the edge in the third test against South Africa.
Although the tourists battled back from the depths of 6-75 to make 225 all out and then took a couple of quick Australian wickets, the hosts were more than happy with their day's work and none was questioning the contribution of the pace attack.
James Pattinson's series-ending injury in the second test had left Peter Siddle and Ben Hilfenhaus to bowl themselves into the ground in their ultimately unsuccessful attempt to force a result at the Adelaide Oval.
A second draw after Brisbane meant the stakes would be high in Perth.
The WACA test will potentially decide not only who takes the honours in the three-match series but also which of the two countries will be ranked number one in test cricket.
In a decision overshadowed by Ricky Ponting's announcement on Thursday that this would be his final test, Australia's selectors decided Siddle and Hilfenhaus could not be risked.
Instead, they recalled Mitchell Starc and Mitchell Johnson and awarded a first cap to John Hastings, with all rounder Shane Watson offering support on his return from injury and off spinner Nathan Lyon retaining his place.
They were fully vindicated when all five got wickets on Friday with left-armers Starc and Johnson catching the eye early on opening day at the WACA.
Johnson has had a tough couple of years since suffering something of a meltdown during the 2010-11 Ashes series, but he proved once again on Friday there are few bowlers more dangerous at the WACA.
His ability to summon up swing at the ground has now netted him 32 wickets in five tests, including his career best 8-61 in the corresponding test against South Africa here in 2008.
At 31, the Perth test was potentially a last chance to get himself back into the side and perhaps get a chance to make his many English critics eat humble pie in next year's Ashes.
His figures of 2-54 did not necessarily reflect the job he did in softening up the top order, in particular South Africa skipper Graeme Smith whose wicket was ultimately claimed by Watson.
"Mitch was really good today," said Hastings, who opened the bowling.
"I've played him a couple of times for Victoria in the last couple of months and he bowled a couple of quick spells for us. His action looks good and he's swinging the ball and that's fantastic for Australian cricket I think."
Starc (2-55) has considerable grace for a tall man and the ability to pull out the occasional peach of a ball.
On Friday, the 22-year-old produced two in six balls to trigger South Africa's midday collapse by bowling opener Alviro Petersen and the all rounder Jacques Kallis through the gate.
Hastings (1-51) said he had fulfilled a boyhood dream when he was handed his baggy green cap before the start of play on and was delighted to have taken his first wicket in the shape of AB de Villiers.
While he is playing his first test in Perth, he and all his team mates are more than aware that it will be the 168th and last for former captain Ponting.
"It's the end of an era and I don't think we'll know what we're missing until he's gone," Hastings, 27, said.
"It is a massive motivation, everyone knows deep down that it's his last game and we'll be pushing as hard as we can to try and get that win for him."

Who in your department needs an iPhone?
Think about it: Who really needs one?
As mobile devices have proliferated, it's become increasingly common for federal employees to expect to get them on the job, either issued by the agency or at least supported by it. But the recent executive order that instructs agencies to limit the numbers they provide is likely to undercut those expectations -- and likely not to be the last such measure.
As we move into the new era of reduced funding, this kind of measure is going to become more common, and the wise manager will start thinking now about how to accommodate it. In this case, figure out who really needs a smart phone to do their jobs. You don't need to provide them for all or even many of your employees. It may be that only a small number of them actually need the functionality of an apps-laden smart phone. It may even be that nobody really needs one. In either case, providing them for only those who really need them saves money.
The order instructs agencies to "assess current device inventories and usage, and establish controls, to ensure that they are not paying for unused or underutilized information-technology equipment, installed software, or services." It also tells them to limit the number of devices issued to employees, consistent with the Telework Enhancement Act, which adds a layer of complexity to the question.
Nevertheless, it's a safe bet that this order is just the start of a new regime of limits. Rather than fighting it, take charge and get ahead of it. You'll be glad you did.

If you have an Intel solid-state drive, you might want to grab the latest version of the company's SSD Toolbox. This helpful little utility has been given a new interface that most folks should find easy to navigate and understand. Contextual help information is integrated throughout, and even tech-savvy enthusiasts should find the functionality useful.
The utility can be used to apply firmware updates and to check whether Windows features like the built-in defragger and pre-fetching mechanisms are optimized for an SSD. A secure-erase function is included, as well, and drives can be trimmed manually using the app.
I played around with the new SSD Toolbox during an IDF session back in September. The new interface is very nice, and I particularly like its ability to monitor some of the SMART attributes used to characterize drive wear. Intel SSDs have an E9 attribute—otherwise known as the "media wearout indicator"—that starts at 100 and ticks down as the flash's write-erase cycles are consumed. If you're curious about how much data has been written to the drive, an E1 attribute tracks the total number of host writes, too.
