RSL walked away from Livestrong Sporting Park with an incredibly valuable point. Here are my 15 thoughts on the match.
1. Atta' boy Jeff! Attinella was huge in this game, in more than one way. When called upon, he made the save. In the first half especially, he was up to the task. One thing that really jumps out about Jeff in comparison to Rimando is his size. Who woulda thought? But I mean this more in the sense of owning his box with his size. For all the heroics Rimando can pull off with his springiness, Attinella can make himself just so much bigger. Easily the man of the match. Seriously, huge game from Jeff.
2. Chris Schuler had some massive tackles. RSL's defense without him is rather average, but becomes one of the best in the league when he's playing. His ability to win pretty much anything in the air is one thing. His lanky legs are another beast altogether. There were a few times in this game where Chris was beat but used his length to make a last-ditch tackle. His distribution still leaves a lot to be desired, but defensively speaking he is top-notch. PLEASE stay healthy.
3. The outside backs did their job. It wasn't overly attractive soccer from Mansally or Balchan, but they can both say they started in KC and didn't get scored on. That's a huge notch on their belts. Very good outing from them. Mansally, in particular, did well to adjust at half to the pressure that had been coming his way during the first half. Balchan had the responsibility of Graham Zusi. To say you kept Zusi off the scoreboard for a guy with as many minutes as Balchan is a huge deal.
4. A rough going in the midfield. This game only had about 15-20 minutes where it felt like our midfield was being utilized properly. KC likes to bypass the middle of the pitch and get the ball from one end to the other quickly. We love to dink and dunk in the middle of the pitch before building. We never had a substantial amount of midfield play which led to our rather lackluster offensive night.
5. Luis Gil went back to ghost mode. After a solid match against TFC (my man of the match, in fact), Luis was a non-factor. I highlighted him as being a key player to this game if RSL was going to win. His struggling, in particular, really handicapped the RSL offense. A forgetful night from the youngster.
6. Garcia's lack of chemistry with the team is concerning. The guy will bust his tail all game to cover ground. However, the chemistry with the team (simple passing) is really off. This was understandable for a few games, but it should show signs of improvement. It's concerning that he hasn't found a way to gel better with the midfield. This needs to improve or RSL will be in a world of hurt.
7. One shot on goal isn't good enough. There are a lot of fingers being pointed on this. Some people want to blame Saborio, others Garcia, some even Gil and Grabavoy. The point is that the whole offensive side of RSL struggled in this game. We lacked the ability to press forward, and thus put our forwards on an island. The only times I can think of Saborio having the ball are when he had one defender on top of him and another defender closing. That isn't going to produce results.
8. The red card was a pretty awful tackle. There was discussion on twitter on the red card being harsh. I am a bit shocked at this. This league isn't doing itself favors by saying it's a "possible red" if you go lunging in with your studs exposed high. That was a red card, no doubt. If you think it was harsh I'm a bit concerned what warrants a red in your mind.
9. Twitter shouldn't be used by athletes right after a game. Dom Dwyer gave exhibit A in this. You're going to have strong emotions after a tough game like this one was. There is no doubt in that. But to go spouting off at the opposing team is just moronic. Picking a twitter fight with the best goalkeeper in MLS is also a pretty moronic move. Dom Dwyer, put the phone down.
10. Kansas City was the better team. It's the truth. If you had to pick one of the two sides, KC would get the nod. But that is the great (and sometimes awful) part of this sport. You can outplay or be outplayed but that doesn't determine the points. How you take your chances does. KC, for all their shooting, couldn't finish. RSL did enough to earn their point. No, we weren't the better team, but we kept KC off the scoreboard. That was solid.
11. Getting a point at KC is a huge point for Jeff Cassar. We're a bit spoiled here in RSL land because we look at this game and go "good job" instead of recognizing the feet that it was. This game was incredibly well-managed. The subs were well-timed. The switch in the back, the overall approach, etc. Cassar showed himself as a strong manager in this one. Well done, Jeff.
12. More rotation is needed. The average age of a lot of the "big" players on this team is above the 30 mark. Beckerman is 31, Rimando is 34, Morales is 34, Saborio is 32, Borchers is 32, etc. They can still play at this level, but they need more time to recover between games. If RSL wants to be competitive in October, Cassar has to rotate these guys. This game showed that giving youngsters a chance can pay off. The experience that Mansally, Attinella, and Balchan got in this game can't be replicated in training. It's massive.
13. Credit to Kyle for being a warrior. I know I just said rotation is needed for these older players, but credit needs to be given to Beckerman. The guy played 60+ minutes in Phoenix on Wednesday and then played the full 90 here. The guy is a beast. I would still like to see him possibly get a night off or at least only have to appear as a sub, but credit to the captain for his minutes.
14. Nobody had this team at 9 points after 5 games. It truly is a testament of the management ability of Jeff Cassar and the maturity of this team. To remain unbeaten and at 9 points is truly quite the feat. I have a felling it might end this weekend in Philly, but as of now we're playing with house money. Well done, boys.
15. The Philly game this weekend feels like a trap game. Philly isn't a "sexy" opponent like KC or LA. They aren't going to draw the attention like those teams/matchups did. That said, Philly is good – especially at home – and could jump on this team if they aren't prepared. One of the hardest things for a manager to do is to get the team up for a game after a previous big match. Cassar has to find a way to motivate the guys or else Philly will take advantage and end the unbeaten streak. This week is a big test for Cassar and his group.

Carmack Addresses FPS Creativity Concerns
Soulskill posted more than 3 years ago | from the if-you-build-it dept.280
donniebaseball23 writes "id Software co-founder John Carmack defended the creativity of first-person shooter games in a recent interview. The legendary programmer, who was a pioneer in the shooter genre with Doom and Quake, said he doesn't like hearing from developers that shooters aren't good because they're not reinventing the wheel. 'I am pretty down on people who take the sort of creative auteurs' perspective. It's like "Oh, we're not being creative." But we're creating value for people — that's our job! It's not to do something that nobody's ever seen before. It's to do something that people love so much they're willing to give us money for... you see some of the indie developers that really take a snooty attitude about this,' he lamented."

Re: Childbirth classes - worth it?
I think they were worth the time. However I do think it depends on what you want out of your childbirth. I wanted a med free labor and delivery with both, but the first class I took through the hospital wasn't tailored towards that at all. If you want to go pain med free, and there's one in your area I'd recommend the hypnobabies course. There wasn't a group class near me but they have a home study course that you begin around 32 weeks and it is fully comprehensive, covering child birth, diet, exercise, breastfeeding, etc. It does take a lot of practice but it was totally worth the money (I bought it used but new it is $150 which is a whole lot less than copay for pain meds). It worked really well for me and I had a pain free labor and delivery with my second, even though she was almost 9 lbs and labor was less than 4 hours.

"Duo John Olson and Nate Young, names commonly associated with the underworld regimes electronic noise kings Wolf Eyes, are runaways, yet their direction toward the primitive and battered blues has been somewhat inevitable. At first, it appears accidental that the same players who have produced countless screeching aural onslaughts are creating the subtly sensitive and focused meanderings of fleshy and intricate scales. On second thought, Olson and Young love to push the envelope, as well as themselves, and Lose Today shows traces of their ever-present and contorting thumbprint: raw elegance. Though perhaps the mere consideration of the majestic noise kings performing by note seems both perplexing and cumbersome, think again. Their methods are cunning and their outpour is monstrously elegiac. Lose Today wields the ethereal meditative power leftover from The Velvet Undergrounds Sweet Sister Ray epic bootleg. The result: a melodious somnolent grievance that leaves the listener to feast on a curiously endless and internal banquet. Young snarls and writhes in irritated spiraling pronouncements that trail off in regretful, pained fashion, producing the same eventual something-isn't-right that The Velvet Underground secured, but set aside to allow the Michigan basement bluesmen to borrow."

Public Lecture at the Foreign Trade University by Takehiko Nakao, President, Asian Development Bank on 15 January 2014 in Viet Nam
(as drafted)
Good morning.
Distinguished guests and colleagues: thank you for your warm welcome. I am very pleased to be here today, and I thank the Foreign Trade University for inviting me to speak at this prestigious university.
Today, I would like to talk about the opportunities and challenges facing Developing Asia, in particular Viet Nam and its quest to become a modern industrialized country. This vision is certainly attainable. But there are challenges to overcome.
Viet Nam has achieved its third consecutive year of macroeconomic stability. The Government has sharply reduced inflation, stabilized the exchange rate, and built up a strong current account surplus and higher foreign reserves. However, while government policy has succeeded in reducing macroeconomic instability, more progress is needed to address the economy's structural weaknesses. Structural reforms and improved governance are needed to create an enabling business environment that encourages entrepreneurship and innovation.
Recent external shocks have inevitably slowed the reform process in Viet Nam. But they also highlight institutional weaknesses that predated the global financial crisis. Hence, Viet Nam should continue pursuing market-oriented reforms and increasing integration with the global economy.
Viet Nam must also ensure that growth is inclusive and benefits all segments of the society. Equality of opportunity will not only help unleash Viet Nam's full economic potential, it will also support inclusiveness and improve income distribution. The Government should not only enhance public services such as health and education, but also ensure access to jobs, finance, and business start-ups.
So in my view, to achieve its vision, Viet Nam must become more innovative, more inclusive, and more integrated. I will come back to this in a moment.
First, however, let me give you all a brief introduction to the Asian Development Bank (ADB).
Our institution has been working in partnership with the Government of Viet Nam, which was a founding member of ADB in 1966. Since resuming operations in Viet Nam in 1993, ADB's assistance to the public sector has amounted to $13 billion. This includes 131 loans totaling $12.5 billion ($6.3 billion from Ordinary Capital Resources and $6.2 billion from Asian Development Fund), 276 technical assistance projects amounting to $255 million, and 31 grants with a total amount of $305 million. The sectors with the largest shares in terms of cumulative lending amount are: (i) transport and communications (33.9%), (ii) energy (20.2%), and (iii) agriculture and natural resources (13.6%).
As part of its regular operations, ADB coordinates closely with Viet Nam's development partners to improve the effectiveness, efficiency, and impact of its lending and non-lending programs. We also work closely with civil society organizations and the private sector in Viet Nam to mobilize financial resources and expertise from other partners.
Our Country Partnership Strategy (CPS) for 2012–2015 is fully aligned with Viet Nam's Socio-Economic Development Plan (SEDP) for 2011–2015, and will support issues arising from Viet Nam's recent transition to a middle-income country. The CPS focuses ADB assistance to Viet Nam on three pillars: inclusive growth, enhancing economic efficiency, and environmental sustainability. To maximize ADB's development impacts, ADB prioritizes six sectors: (i) agriculture and natural resources; (ii) education; (iii) energy; (iv) finance; (v) transport; and (vi) water supply, along with other municipal infrastructure and services. Public sector management is a crosscutting theme, and is mainstreamed in terms of sector operations through reform and policy-oriented support.
ADB actively supports the government's commitment to comprehensive economic restructuring and continued reform, particularly to increase the depth and efficiency of the financial sector, and to improve corporate governance and efficiencies of state-owned enterprises (SOEs). To facilitate faster development of infrastructure, we are assisting in the development of a pilot scheme to promote public–private partnerships.
Now let me address the main topic of my presentation: the challenges facing Viet Nam.
To better achieve its potential, Viet Nam must deal with multiple risks and challenges such as improving competitiveness, managing growing inequities, and developing governance and institutional capacity.
The main factor determining failure or success will be Viet Nam's ability to innovate and upgrade its production processes. This crucial shift requires flexibility in setting policy. It also requires large investments in human capital to create a skilled and innovative work force. Providing good physical infrastructure to deal with increasing demands and promoting new advances in technology will also be critical. Rapid and sustainable growth should also be supported by imposing market discipline on SOEs, and through stronger supervision of the financial system.
Let me elaborate on these points by focusing on how innovation, inclusiveness and integration can help Viet Nam.
Viet Nam needs to create an enabling business environment that encourages entrepreneurship and innovation. This requires improved governance, greater transparency and disclosure of policy-making, and regulation. Enterprises should be able to compete on equal terms for land, credit, and business information, regardless of ownership.
Reforming the SOE sector is therefore vital for private sector development. Appropriate reforms will create opportunities for private investment, reduce the costs of doing business, and improve basic services by introducing private sector discipline and competitive market pressures.
SOEs that deliver core public infrastructure services—airports and ports, telecommunications, power and water utilities—may continue to play an important role in Viet Nam's development. However, the domestic private sector is also playing a pivotal role, contributing almost 50 percent of GDP and absorbing some 1.5 million workers per year in the last several years.
Viet Nam needs to find the right balance between the roles of the public and private sector in the economy. ADB is providing over $600 million to restructure some SOEs. We are also supporting private sector development through the development of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and microfinance programs.
The quality of human resources is also important for enhancing innovation. The famous Vietnamese philosopher, Than Nhan Trung said in the 15th Century that "Excellent talents with good virtue are key resources of the country. If these resources are strong, the country will progress and be strong." ADB certainly agrees with this philosophy. We are scaling up support for education, including technical and vocational education and training, to help Viet Nam achieve its development aspirations.
Along with innovation, Viet Nam must ensure growth benefits all segments of the population. Physical infrastructure provides the foundations of economic growth. It also improves access to services and opportunities, and enhances trade and investment by improving competitiveness and reducing the costs of doing business. Social infrastructure, such as education and health, is also essential. Viet Nam has come a long way in providing basic physical and social infrastructure but more needs to be done.
Between now and 2025, for example, Viet Nam will be transformed as its urban population almost doubles to 50 million. Its cities will be the centers of higher education, innovation and technological development. The quality of infrastructure in urban areas will thus increasingly determine Viet Nam's long term competitiveness and social stability. The reality at present, however, is one of inadequate water and urban sanitation infrastructure, and power shortages.
In the field of education and training, the Government, along with development partners such as ADB, has made significant, long-term efforts to enhancing the access to and quality of education. These efforts have led Vietnamese students to major achievements in the OECD's Programme for International Student Achievement (PISA) 2012. However, there remains a significant gap in access to primary and secondary schooling among household income levels, ethnic groups, gender, and geographic regions. Particularly in disadvantaged areas, school-age children cannot get a minimum level of life-long skills due to lack of qualified teachers and education facilities.
ADB supports inclusive growth through microfinance and rural development, gender equity, scaling-up of education including technical and vocational education, and targeting disadvantaged provinces, particularly in the central and northern mountainous regions.
Regional cooperation and integration, or RCI, allows countries to access larger markets and participate in extensive value chains. Greater intraregional trade underlies Southeast Asia's recent resilience.
Since 1992, ADB's Greater Mekong Sub region (GMS) Program has made an important contribution to the increased integration of the region, focusing on 3 C's–connectivity, competitiveness, and community. ADB supports transport and power connectivity, economic corridor development, HIV/AIDs and other communicable diseases control, natural resources and environment management, and tourism.
Viet Nam has actively participated in the GMS program, and accounts for nearly half of ADB's total lending to GMS projects. These projects include the Kunming-Haiphong Transport Corridor Noi Bai-Lao Cai Highway, the Southern Coastal Corridor, Corridor Towns Development, and the Biodiversity Conservation Corridor.
These projects have proven results. For example, the travel time between Phnom Penh and Ho Chi Minh City has been shortened by six hours and is now facilitating cross-border trade and tourism flows. The GMS Tourism project has contributed to significantly increasing visitor arrivals.
The investments needed to promote a more innovative, inclusive, and integrated Viet Nam are huge. For infrastructure financing alone, Viet Nam will need an estimated $167 billion over the next decade to sustain the desired growth trajectory.
Only about half this amount is expected to come from the state budget, including Official Development Assistance and government bond financing. Private investment in infrastructure is essential.
Given the immense needs for infrastructure development, mobilizing adequate finance remains a key challenge. Developing domestic capital markets and encouraging local currency lending will help to tap into Viet Nam's potentially large domestic savings. ADB supports development of a deeper bond market that will enable long-term funding to be channeled to much-needed infrastructure projects.
The Government has recognized the potential of public-private partnerships (PPPs). Still, Viet Nam faces challenges to promote PPPs. ADB is supporting the Government's initiative to strengthen the PPP regulatory framework and to build the capacity of PPP institutions.
In addition, infrastructure funds such as the ASEAN Infrastructure Fund (AIF) can significantly contribute to meeting the financing requirements of the ASEAN countries, including Viet Nam.
In closing, I am confident in Viet Nam's strong potential over the medium- to long-term. Its large market of 90 million people, strategic location and young and hardworking labor force certainly warrants optimism.
However, I must stress that Viet Nam must not assume its vision of becoming a modern industrialized country is pre-ordained. Getting there will require visionary leadership, capable public administration, and innovative entrepreneurship.
In 2013, ADB celebrated a 20 year working relationship with Viet Nam, and we are committed to working with Viet Nam for another 20 years. During those 20 years, every student in this room has an important role to play to shaping Viet Nam's future. You are the future leaders, civil servants, and entrepreneurs of this country, and ADB is privileged to partner with you.
Xin cam on.

By Nicholas DeLorenzo, Associate College Football Editor
Sports Network (Philadelphia, PA) - This time last year, few people predicted that Robert Griffin III would be hoisting the Heisman Trophy at season's end.
So while this upcoming college football season has its share of favorites for the Football Bowl Subdivision's top individual honor, there are also a number of dark horses hoping to take the leap into super-stardom.
The following is a list of ten early Heisman Trophy contenders:
Matt Barkley, QB, USC - It appears as though the stars are beginning to align for Barkley in 2012. A starter since his freshman year, Barkley has shown marked improvement with each passing season, culminating in a spectacular 2011 campaign where he completed 69.1 percent of his passes for 3,528 yards to go along with a school-record 39 passing touchdowns and just seven interceptions. The high-powered Trojan offense remains mostly intact from a year ago - including an explosive receiver to be revealed later in the list - which not only makes Barkley the favorite for the award, but it makes USC one of the top contenders to win the BCS National Championship.
Montee Ball, RB, Wisconsin - Ball's junior season was one for the record books. On 307 carries, Ball gained an incredible 1,923 yards and found the end zone 33 times on the ground. His 39 total touchdowns tied Barry Sanders' single-season record and he stands alone with the record for most consecutive games with two or more touchdowns (13). Ball has a few things going against him however. Even with his monster season in 2011, he finished fourth in the Heisman voting, receiving just 22 first-place votes (RG III had 405 first-place votes). Even under perfect circumstances, it seems unlikely that Ball can come close to duplicating his historic 2011 numbers, and the Badgers head into 2012 with questions at quarterback and along the offensive line.
Marcus Lattimore, RB, South Carolina - After scoring 19 touchdowns as a freshman in 2010, Lattimore was well on his way to becoming a potential Heisman Trophy finalist in 2011 before suffering a season-ending injury in October. The sophomore's numbers were astounding in just over six games (818 rushing yards, 182 receiving yards, 11 TDs). He returns in 2012 fully healthy and will again be the focal point for a very good Gamecocks team. With Trent Richardson now a member of the Cleveland Browns, Lattimore's combination of physical gifts and on-the-field production make him the most talented back in the nation's most competitive conference.
Landry Jones, QB, Oklahoma - Unlike Barkley, Jones took a step backward in his junior season after establishing himself as one of the nation's best quarterbacks earlier in his career. He threw for an impressive 4,463 yards in 2011, but he was also picked off a career-high 15 times and seemed to come up small in big games, combining for zero touchdowns and three interceptions in crucial losses to Baylor and Oklahoma State. Jones clearly has the pedigree to make it on to this list, but he'll need to lead Oklahoma back to a BCS bowl game to have any shot at winning the award.
Denard Robinson, QB, Michigan - After leading his team to an 11-2 record and a win over Virginia Tech in the Sugar Bowl, 'Shoelace' Robinson proved that he was way more than just a flashy playmaker in 2011. He has become one of the best dual-threat quarterbacks in NCAA history after throwing for at least 2,000 yards and rushing for at least 1,000 yards in back-to-back seasons, setting countless Michigan and Big Ten Conference records in the process. If Robinson can take the next step in making the Wolverines not only the favorites in the Big Ten but a national title contender as well, he seems likely to get an invitation to New York City in December as a Heisman finalist, and perhaps be Barkley's biggest competition.
Tyrann Mathieu, CB, LSU - Mathieu was named a Heisman finalist in 2011 in his sophomore season after an outstanding year for the SEC champion Tigers. The cornerback showed remarkable play-making ability on both defense (71 tackles, two interceptions, six forced fumbles, five fumble recoveries, two touchdowns) and on special teams (26 punt returns for 420 yards and two touchdowns). There's no doubt Mathieu is a special player, but it's difficult to forecast another season where he scores four touchdowns. Charles Woodson is the only defensive player to win the award since 1961, and like Woodson, Mathieu will again need to make a huge impact on special teams to have any chance in 2012.
Robert Woods, WR, USC - In reality, Woods' quarterback will likely steal most of his votes, but as arguably the nation's best receiver, he deserves some love on this list. As a sophomore, Woods was fantastic, earning First-Team All- America honors after finishing with 111 receptions (a Pac-12 Conference record), 1,292 yards, and 15 touchdowns. With another year together with Barkley, it's scary to think of the numbers the two can put up.
Geno Smith, QB, West Virginia - Smith set the Big East Conference on fire last season, thriving under head coach Dana Holgorsen's new pass-based offensive system to the tune of conference-record 4,379 yards and 31 touchdowns against only seven interceptions. He capped off his record-setting year with an amazing performance in the Mountaineers' 70-33 shellacking of Clemson in the Orange Bowl with 401 yards and six touchdowns. West Virginia moves from the Big East to the Big 12 this season, but Smith and company shouldn't miss a beat in their new pass-happy conference.
Sammy Watkins, WR, Clemson - Watkins in a wild card here due to his unlimited upside as a big-play receiver. After hauling in 82 passes for 1,219 yards and 12 touchdowns in 2011, the 6-1 receiver became just the third true freshman ever to be named First-Team All-American by the AP, joining Herschel Walker and Adrian Peterson. Watkins was also an asset in the running game (229 rushing yards) and on special teams (695 return yards), and if he progresses at all in his sophomore campaign, it's going to be hard to ignore him.
Knile Davis, RB, Arkansas - Davis was red-shirted in 2011 following a season- ending ankle injury suffered in practice last August, and without him Arkansas still managed to make noise in the SEC West with an 11-2 record. Now healthy, the junior will attempt to improve upon his 2010 season, when he was one of the most effective backs in the conference with 1,322 yards and 13 touchdowns. Also keep an eye on Razorback quarterback Tyler Wilson, who tossed 24 touchdowns against just six interceptions last season, as another dark horse, as Arkansas dives into the 2012 season as a team with both the ability and opportunity to make headway in the BCS standings.

Between Scandal and Parenthood, it seems like election season is still in full swing on Thursday nights. For the NBC drama, Kristinas mayoral race is heating up and the preview for next weeks The Ring suggests shes considering going negative. But this is only after Bob Little takes a shot at her and Adam. By the way, what exactly is going on in that news article Heather shows Kristina?
The Bravermans are back! And you want to stop reading now if you didn't watch last night's Season 5 premiere, as we're about to get into spoiler territory. The above video gives us a look ahead at what's coming up this season, and after last night's episode, which introduced a number of exciting developments, the biggest of which may be Amber's engagement to Ryan! Of course, there's also Kristina's campaign, the new baby for Crosby and Julia's work situation, or lack thereof.
Like last night, tonight's primetime line-up features a number of premieres, but most of them are returning shows. It's a big night for comedy, as CBS brings back The Big Bang Theory and debuts The Crazy Ones, while NBC brings Parks and Recreation back along with the premiere of The Michael J. Fox Show. Thursday night also marks the return of Glee, Parenthood, Grey's Anatomy and Elementary.
The early preview for the new season is chock full of action, but since NBC hasnt been overly boisterous with its Parenthood promotions, it feels to me like this is only the tip of the iceberg for the new season, which should be full of new plotlines, thanks to NBC signing on for a full 22-episode order. You wont have too long to wait to find out.
Parenthood is returning to NBCs schedule this fall, and for a full season order at that. Thats extremely exciting news for fans, but the more exciting news in this intimate new trailer for Season 5 are the high moments for our characters shown in the short new teaser for the series. Anyone who has seen an episode of Parenthood before knows we often get to see characters like Adam, Sarah, Crosby, Amber, and Jasmine make plenty of mistakes.
If you're a fan of Friday Night Lights who also happens to watch Parenthood, you may have noticed that Jason Katims has a tendency to bring actors from his previous series over to the current one. It's likely how we got Michael B. Jordan, Minka Kelley and Matt Lauria, among others. And soon we can add Jurnee Smollett, another FNL beauty who's been cast to play a role in the NBC drama series.
Parenthood is adding two familiar faces as guest stars for its upcoming fifth season. The Office's David Denman and Lost's Sonya Walger have both signed on to play roles in the family-focused NBC drama. For Denman, it's an arc involving Julia and for Walger, it's a spot opposite Julia's husband Joel. Is there cause to worry about the future of Julia and Joel's marriage here? Possibly
Parenthood is returning for a fifth season on NBC, but the lineup will look a little bit different, thanks to at least one fan favorite actor moving on to a new project. Even though Mark Ritter is leaving the series, most of the main cast and a few newish characters will be returning to the series, and on Friday it was announced that Matt Lauria will absolutely be returning to the show.
Good news, Ray Romano fans! Or more specifically, those Parenthood fans who loved the actor as occasionally grumpy photographer Hank in the NBC drama. Romano has signed on to return to the series for Season 5, which means there may be hope for Sarah and Hank yet!
Despite Ryans difficulties in adjusting back to everyday life after his Army stint, he and Amber are actually a really believable and interesting romance and I really, really hope well be seeing more of that dynamic. The show really achieves a sense of balance from their perspectives.
A day ahead of their upfront presentation, NBC has posted their 2013-2014 schedule, which lays out where most of the new and returning series will air throughout the week come next fall. A few notable schedule changes appear to be taking place, including a move to Wednesdays for Revolution and a shift to Thursdays for Parenthood. Absent from the list is Community, but NBC did include it among the scripted series confirmed to return, so it will be back. It's just a matter of when.
Whether or not the lights come back on in Revolution remains to be seen, but either way, NBC won't be turning the lights out on this series anytime soon. Revolution was among the five dramas NBC renewed today for next season. Also set to return are Grimm, Parenthood, Chicago Fire, and Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.
It seemed like a treat when Parenthood returned early from its winter hiatus at the start of January, but as of tonight, the series' fourth season is out of episodes. Parenthood's Season 4 finale airs tonight, after which we'll be left to hope that the show will return for Season 5. And in the meantime, we'll have Smash to enjoy on Tuesday nights, come February.
Parenthood only just returned from its brief winter hiatus a few weeks ago and it's already wrapping up for the season. The promo for next week's "Because You're My Sister" reminds us that the episode that airs next Tuesday night will be the last for Season 4, after which we'll have to hope that the show pops up on NBC's 2013-2014 schedule for its fifth season. I'm hopeful that it will, but we'll see. In the meantime, check out the promo for the Season 4 finale.
Parenthood delivered a top notch episode last night. Perhaps the best of the season, really, with each section of the Braverman family facing their own battles, and some coming out more successful than others. With just two episodes left in the season, anything can happen, and there's a lot set up to be resolved or to crumble, depending on what the writers have planned for this family.

The young Israeli guitarist with the burgeoning rep works the fluid side of the street; his runs continuously spill into one another, and their flow gives his bands all sorts of extra momentum. But he likes things to have a fierce side, too. There's rarely a solo that emerges without a bit of exclamation. Words Unspoken proved he has a knack for connecting with strong tenor players. Tonight's gig finds the wonderfully idiosyncratic Mark Turner at Hekselman's side. Killer rhythm section, too.

And the feeling is mutual, I would imagine.
On Monday, Pittsburgh Steelers All-Pro linebacker James Harrison received some bad news. His appeal of the ridiculous fines levied against him was denied. Shocking. I, for one, totally see the fairness in fining James a cool $75,000 for laying out Mohamed Massaquoi with a clean hit but not fining Kurt Coleman (for stretchering out Austin Collie) or James Sanders (for cheapshotting Hines Ward) a single penny for their filthy actions.
According to NFL justice, James would be 67% less dirty (and richer) if he just just pulled up and sucker-punched his opponent like a cowardly little bitch…
Yesterday, the NFL slapped the Silverback with another $25,000 deduction from his paycheck. Who didn't see this coming? He somehow escaped last week's uncalled for personal foul for "landing with full body weight" on Oakland's Jason Campbell. The Ginger Dictator must've been distracted with planning his Thanksgiving feast.
But breaks are short-lived when it comes to the NFL's persecution of the Black and Gold. This week's laughable personal foul for hitting Ryan Fitzpatrick square in the chest with a form perfect tackle did not escape their notice. In fact, when the flag was thrown, I immediately pictured Goodell and his lackey in charge of punishments pumping their fists and high-fiving each other because they got another chance to stick it to the Steelers.
And stick it they did. Right up the back door. Without lube. For those keeping score at home, James Harrison's badassery has now set him back $125,000. No other player, not even lowlife thugs who get into UFC-style brawls, have been fined even half that amount.
Instead of pointless meetings with Ginger or appealing unfair fines, James should just write a check for $180,000 and ask the league if a brother can get a discount for early payment.

2013 - Thoughts on Perspective
This year has been a wild ride. I am so thankful to say that it has been a journey of overwhelming happiness, for the most part. Not that it was all marshmallows and roses, though—there have been a lot of opportunities to change and grow as a person in there, too, and for those I am the most thankful.
Every year I sit down and look back over my life, utilizing that poetic "hindsight is 20/20" concept to hopefully shed a little light on why I am here. Every year I realize that I still don't see the entire picture, as much as I long for a completely balanced perspective on myself, but I am given little pieces of truth that continue to help me figure out the puzzle. Yes, I know this will be a life-long process. No, my goal is not to know everything about everything, or even about myself. Instead, all I'm really hoping to do is use the truth I have been given by God to create more space to fill with more love, because if I have nothing else at the end of a season, I know I will have that, and it's enough.
My main focus over 2013 was maintaining a healthy perspective in every situation in life. Obviously I knew this was not going to be without challenges, but wow, was it harder than I expected. I had a few pivotal moments where I was nursing a great stress tornado, only to suddenly be called back by this little poke from within that reminded me, "Hey, you brought this on yourself. Change your perspective, change your situation." Within minutes, I'd sit there dumbfounded at how trivial my issue was when I looked at it from the right perspective.
Ultimately perspective stems from a foundation of faith. Everyone believes in something, whether they admit it or not. Belief builds our culture and shapes us not only as a whole, but as individuals.
"What is the eternal power in a human being? It is faith. What is the expectancy of faith? Victory—or as Scripture teaches, that all things work together for the good of those who love God. Faith is an expectancy of the future that expects victory. Faith conquers the future. The believer, therefore, is finished with the future before he begins the present, and this victory can only make him stronger for the present work." - Soren Kierkegaard
And so I learned and I grew, a lot more than I realized after I looked back over this year, which continues to amaze me, and I had this perfect, neat little essay written up about all the nuggets of truth I've acquired through this journey towards discovering perspective. But the year isn't over yet, and in the last three days I have completely rewritten a month's worth of work into this much more realistic, not as eloquently presented, account of my journey, because I didn't actually get the plot twist on this story until today: The healthiest perspective can be found by being present.
That's right. There isn't any magical "will this matter in two months" formula for peace of mind and a reduced-stress existence. In order to get past the hard stuff, you need to actually go through it, and not try to escape it or pull out some meditation that will make it easier or less uncomfortable. You just need to put your feet on the ground where you are, take a deep breath and move forward. Face all those fears and pains and triggers, and make yourself get inside them and figure out why they are the way they are, whatever that means for you. Only then will you finally have the perspective Kierkegaard was talking about above: The victory is already won. There's nothing left to worry about. And then you will realize what you can do to keep going, because you'll know without a doubt that life will keep moving forward, and you need to stay in the present, where it's happening and where you have the choice of how to react to your environment. You need to do the present work to gain the perspective you need for your future.
Realizing how much I have adapted to unconsciously applying this philosophy has shown me the extent to which I've changed as a person in the last year. It's changed dynamics in my priorities and relationships for the better. It's certainly changed the way I move through my life; I approach opportunities with less fear and more ambition than I used to. I'm learning what to let matter and what to let go of. I am learning how much there is in life to absolutely love, and how to make room for more of that day-to-day.
With that being said, I am content with how my story is going so far. I'm so thankful to the people in my world who have walked with me through some crazy times in my life this year. God has given me so many opportunities to be challenged, open up, and share love, and that's always an good thing.
Thanks for taking time to read what's been on my mind and heart as we go into the next year. I hope you continue growing in your walk through life, whether you are lengthening the same path or starting a new adventure. Feel free to share what you've learned over 2013 in my ask! I'd love to hear it!
(February 2013-October 2013 progress. Sometimes you don't realize how much you've grown until you look with perspective!)
True poetry is born of scrutiny,
Scrutiny, the son of meditation,
Meditation, the son of lore,
Lore, the son of inquiry,
Inquiry, the son of investigation,
Investigation, the son of knowledge,
Knowledge, the son of understanding,
Understanding, the son of wisdom,
Wisdom, the son of surrender to the Divine Will…
…Thus it is with the poet himself: his art is powerful, protecting, elevating, and his judgement straight and strong
— Stephen R. Lawhead

Adam Carolla Isn't Backing Down Against Patent Troll
Adam Carolla is tired of fighting a patent troll in a Texas court, but he's not backing down despite an offer to end the case.
A patent (/ˈpætənt/ or /ˈpeɪtənt/) is a form of intellectual property. It consists of a set of exclusive rights granted by a sovereign state to an inventor or their assignee for a limited period of time in exchange for the public disclosure of an invention.
The procedure for granting patents, the requirements placed on the patentee, and the extent of the exclusive rights vary widely between countries according to national laws and international agreements. Typically, however, a patent application must include one or more claims defining the invention which must meet the relevant patentability requirements such as novelty and non-obviousness. The exclusive right granted to a patentee in most countries is the right to prevent others from making, using, selling, or distributing the patented invention without permission.
Under the World Trade Organization's (WTO) Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights, patents should be available in WTO member states for any...

The decades-long controversy over the Washington Redskins' name has hit a climax. On Wednesday, June 18, the United States Patent and Trademark Office canceled six federal trademark registrations for the team's name and logo, calling the name "disparaging to Native Americans." The office can't stop the team from using the name, but it can (at least pending a court reversal) bar the right to registration protections.
Photographers are upset about a new Amazon patent involving shooting against a white background, but experts say it shouldn't affect them too much.
Google and Apple's long-fought legal battle over patents has finally come to an end.
A recently granted patent reveals a Microsoft smartwatch, which could be the device the company uses to launch its Windows on Devices platform.
Forget the iWatch. A recently published Apple patent details an interesting health-monitoring device built into a pair of headphones or earbuds. Along with being able to track user activity during exercise, the proposed technology can sense other biometric data like temperature, perspiration, and heartbeat.
Apple may be going green in the next few years, based on the latest patents given to the company, which reveal solar cells may soon be in all of Apple's devices. Apple appears to be creating a new device that can let natural light in and absorb the energy via solar cells in the devices. The key component in the patent is Smart Glass, or electrochromic glass. Acting like sunglasses, the glass can fluctuate its translucency to filter in light.
A judge in South Korea on Thursday rejected a lawsuit filed by Samsung claiming Apple infringed on its smartphone patents.
Since 2010, Facebook has used facial recognition software to automatically tag your friends in photos. Now one researcher has come up with an algorithm that tags photos based on the relationships that people in images already have with each other. The algorithm uses the name and location of existing photo tags to build a "relationship graph," where personal connections in the images are calculated.
In the future, tattoos may represent much more than artwork. Google is exploring the concept of an electronic skin tattoo that could embed a microphone and lie detector into a user's neck. Google's Motorola Mobility filed an application last week with the U.S. Patent Office for a method of pairing the tattoos with mobile devices, bringing technology closer to us than ever before.
PepsiCo. has long been in the market of tickling your taste buds with sweet beverages. Now, the company wants to appeal to your sense of smell, too. A Pepsi patent aims to make its beverages more fragrant by developing a to release favorable aromas as a can or bottle is opened. See also: 11 Crazy Soda Flavors You Won't Find in the U.S. The aroma system uses tiny gelatin capsules that sit underneath beverage caps.
A new patent filed by Apple describes the possibility of being able to control 2D objects on a touchscreen and moving them into three dimensions.
Many of us dislike those repetitive loops of cheesy music that play when we're put on hold with customer service. And when friends put us on hold during personal phone calls, all we get is silence. Luckily, Apple may have a happy medium in the works. The Cupertino, Calif. company was awarded a United States patent Tuesday that would let users share "personal content," via a visual menu, with the person they place on hold.
Boston University is taking Apple to court for patent infringement. According to the Boston Herald, the university's suit claims that the company is using a patented semiconductor in its products. Filed in the U.S. District Court of Massachusetts, the suit says that the component, patented by engineering professor D. Moustakas in 1997, is used in numerous products including the iPhone 5, iPad and MacBook Air.
The next generation of Apple devices may include a fingerprint scanner. A newly published patent obtained by the company shows a fingerprint scanner that could be embedded within products. Rumored to be included in the upcoming iPhone 5S, the scanner would add an extra layer of security to the iPhone. SEE ALSO: Top 25 Free iPhone Apps of All Time For instance, when you're sliding to unlock the phone, it will also simultaneously scan your fingerprint.
Unlocking your Android phone might soon become a matter of frowning, yawning or smiling. A patent from Google, originally filed in June 2012, enhances facial recognition by capturing several images of the user's facial gestures, which should prevent some ways of cheating the "standard" facial recognition system. The problem with facial recognition is it's possible to fool it by simply presenting a photo of a person to the device's camera.
A new Samsung patent describes a TV with a flexible display that viewers could bend by using a remote control, just like changing the channel.
A new patent application from Apple hints at an iPhone with a flexible, wraparound display.
Sorry, but it's unlikely Apple's latest patent is a precursor to a new, handheld computing device.
[Update: Mashable got the inside scoop on this patent and "Apple's Smart Pen Patent Is Not What You Think"] While there has been lots of buzz over a potential Apple smartwatch, a new patent shows the company is also thinking about other kinds of portable computers. It reveals a computer embedded within a standard pen, which has a small LCD screen for displaying emails, texts, alerts, etc.
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has approved Apple's U.S. Patent No. 8,407,623 for "Playback control using a touch interface." First filed in 2009, the patent covers a technology used on mobile devices that registers touch gestures when no content is displayed on the screen. According to the invention, users are sometimes in situations when looking at a multitouch display isn't feasible. For example, during a gym workout.
A new Apple invention could make iPhone cases a thing of the past. The "Protective Mechanism for an Electronic Device" identifies when a phone is falling and adjusts its center of mass to control its landing. The patent for the invention was recently published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Although the iPhone is specifically mentioned in the patent language, this technology could extend to any device.
Twitter has been granted a patent which describes the basic principles of the service itself.
A patent, entitled "Paid Profile Personalization," indicates that Facebook could give users the option of ridding their profile of ads by paying a fee.
We've seen how it will look and feel, but how will Google Glass actually work? Thanks to a Google patent application that was made public today, we have an idea -- as well as insight into how Google sees the product evolving in the future. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) just posted a patent application from Google, filed in August 2011, that describes the search giant's augmented-reality headset in detail.
A patent application from Apple outlines a device with a flexible screen worn on your wrist, adding fuel to the recent iWatch rumors. The patent application describes a "wearable accessory device" which "includes a flexible display coupled to a bi-stable spring." If that sounds vague, Apple was kind enough to explain that it's actually talking about a "slap wrap" type of bracelet.

SAN JOSE, Calif. - The San Jose Sharks have promoted longtime executive Joe Will to assistant general manager.
The team announced the move Saturday. Will will work with vice-president and assistant general manager Wayne Thomas and report to general manager Doug Wilson.
Wilson says Will has been an integral part of the organization for years and he is deserving of the promotion.
Will has been director of hockey operations the past six years and was previously an assistant to the general manager. Will joined the Sharks franchise at the team's inception in July 1990 and previously served as scouting co-ordinator.
