Picture yourself when you were five. In fact, dig out a photo of little you at that time and tape it to your mirror. How would you treat her, love her, feed her? How would you nurture her if you were the mother of little you? I bet you would protect her fiercely while giving her space to spread her itty-bitty wings. She'd get naps, healthy food, imagination time, and adventures into the wild. If playground bullies hurt her feelings, you'd hug her tears away and give her perspective. When tantrums or meltdowns turned her into a poltergeist, you'd demand a loving time-out in the naughty chair. From this day forward I want you to extend that same compassion to your adult self.

I am often asked: Do you have Canadian newspapers in GenealogyBank?
Well, no we don't – but that's not the question you want to ask. GenealogyBank has over 3,800 newspapers – all of them published in the United States – but it has several million articles, records and documents on Canadians.
Tip: I have been researching my family tree for 45 years and I can tell you that you'll find the information on your family where you least expect to find it.
Here's a wedding announcement for Alexander James Ross of Winnipeg, Manitoba and Mary Moore McArthur of Picton, Nova Scotia – they were married in Chicago 6 March 1882. (Inter Ocean 14 March 1882).
Newspapers were published – every day.
And every day editors had to fill the next day's paper & they wanted to sell papers.
So they pulled "news" from a wide circle of influence. Birth announcements, marriage announcements, and obituaries from small town and big city newspapers.
Just like CNN or Fox News – the daily newspapers had to fill their pages with hard news. News that people wanted to read and that would sell subscriptions.
If you are researching Canadian genealogy then
GenealogyBank is an essential online tool.
Eastport, Maine is a small town on the Maine coast right on the border with New Brunswick, Canada.
As you would expect the Eastport Sentinnel regularly carried birth, death and marriage announcements for individuals and families from the Canadian side of the border.
Look at this example of marriage notices published in the
29 March 1828 Eastport (ME) Sentinnel. Look at the places mentioned "Lubec" – "Dennysville" – "St. Andrews" – "Antigua" – "St. Stephens" and "Charlotte". Towns on both sides of the border. "Antigua" refers to the island nation of Antigua.
Nothing unusual here – just a typical day with a newspaper editor packing his paper with the information his readers wanted to read.
Just like GenealogyBank – everyday we pack in more resources that genealogists need and rely on. You're not finished with your research until you've searched the newspapers in GenealogyBank.
I was alerted to John Fuller's passing by DearMYRTLE. Others in the genealogy community have sent me items to include in writing about him. His complete obituary will be posted later this weekend.
John Fuller was well known in the genealogy community for his landmark website – Genealogy Resources on the Internet – that made it easy to find "Genealogy Mailing Lists" and other resources online. He started that site back in 1995. That seems so long ago now.
The London Daily Telegraph (9 June 2009) is reporting that it was John Moffat, an RAF pilot, who dropped the torpedo that led to the sinking of the Bismarck on May 28, 1941.
The sinking of the Bismarck is a powerful story. The US was not in the war yet – but the headlines of the war in Europe and Asia had gripped the country for years. Pearl Harbor would not be attacked for another 7 months.
(Dallas Morning News 8 Dec 1961).
Songs were sung about that day.
Whether you are researching your ancestor's in World War II or the Revolutionary War you will depend on GenealogyBank to get the job done.

Columbia University Libraries has placed a new digital library of 97 issues of the Tibet Mirror (Tib. Yul phyogs so so'i gsar 'gyur me long) online for scholars to consult and study. Click here to see this collection.
(Image: Yul phyogs so soʾi gsar ʾgyur me long (Kālimpong : G. Tharchin, 1925-<1963>)
The digitized newspapers date from 1933 to 1961, and offer a total of 844 scanned pages drawn from the rich collections of the C. V. Starr East Asian Library.
This Tibetan-language newspaper was published from 1925 to 1963 in Kalimpong, India, and chronicles the most dramatic social and political transformation to have occurred in Tibet during a time when vernacular writing was relatively scarce, and a Tibetan media otherwise non-existent. Columbia's holdings represent about 30% of the paper's full run.
"The recent digitization of large portions of the Tibet Mirror is a welcome and significant advancement in the study of modern Tibet," said Gray Tuttle, Leila Hadley Luce Assistant Professor of Modern Tibetan Studies at Columbia University. "This Tibetan language resource was a key source of news of the world to Tibetans in the middle of the 20th century. As such, it demonstrates that at least some Tibetans were well aware of international developments, from the spread of Communism from Russia to China to the price of wool in Indian markets."
"To date, no serious study of the contents of this important resource has been published. Having used the existing collections in the past, I am very excited to see how easy it is to navigate around, read and download from this online resource. The contributors Paul Hackett and Tina Harris, Columbia's Tibetan Studies librarian Lauran Hartley, and all the Columbia staff who made this beautiful site a reality have made an immense contribution to modern Tibetan Studies worldwide," continued Tuttle.
The digitized newspaper is a cornerstone of the Starr Library's "Tharchin Collection," which features the papers of Gegen Dorje Tharchin (1889-1976), a Tibetan Christian convert and the renowned editor of the Tibet Mirror. The Tharchin Collection, which is being readied for public access this year, was acquired with support from the Columbia University Libraries' Primary Resources Acquisitions Program. In addition to final and draft publications (in both modern and traditional formats), the Collection also includes correspondence; accounts from 1918-1924, and later years; receipts and financial statements; an imprint of a seal designed for the "Future Democratic Tibet Government;" Tibetan hymnals and bibles; scattered photographic prints; advertising solicitations; a list of cotton licenses; and a "Certificate for Traders, Muleteers and Porters."
The newspapers were a recent gift to C.V. Starr East Asian Library from Dr. Paul G. Hackett, who donated 75 issues, and CUNY graduate student Tina Harris, who donated 22 issues of the paper. The digitized library was created as joint project of the C. V. Starr East Asian Library, the Preservation and Digital Conversion Division, and the Libraries Digital Program Division. For more information about the project, contact Hartley at firstname.lastname@example.com.
The C.V. Starr East Asian Library is one of the major collections for the study of East Asia in the United States, with over 820,000 volumes of Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Tibetan, and Western language materials, as well as some holdings in Mongol and Manchu, and over 6,500 periodical titles. The collection, established in 1902, is particularly strong in Chinese history, literature, and social sciences; Japanese literature, history, and religion, particularly Buddhism; and Korean history. The Library's website is located at: www.columbia.edu/cu/lweb/indiv/eastasian/.
Columbia University Libraries/Information Services is one of the top five academic research library systems in North America. The collections include over 10 million volumes, over 100,000 journals and serials, as well as extensive electronic resources, manuscripts, rare books, microforms, maps, graphic and audio-visual materials. The services and collections are organized into 25 libraries and various academic technology centers. The Libraries employs more than 550 professional and support staff. The website of the Libraries at www.columbia.edu/cu/lweb is the gateway to its services and resources.
This collection is not on GenealogyBank.

I just spent a couple of hours pulling up and printing out [pages from the US Navy Register] from 1922 to 1947 for my father-in-law. What a treat, my husband will be thrilled.
Only missing one year, 1945, but that may be an OCR problem. I'll work on it later.
Then, just for chuckles, I pulled up my husband's first ten years — but the server's timing out on me. Hmm. Guess this is really popular right now!
Thanks Tom!

An Irish student's fake quote on Wikipedia has been used in newspaper obituaries around the world.
Like putting a note in a bottle, Shane Fitzgerald, 22, a student studying sociology and economics at University College, Dublin wanted to see how far his fake quote would spread – on the Internet.
According to the Australian (7 May 2009) Fitzgerald created a plausible but fabricated quote, attributing it to Maurice Jarre (1924-2009).
The false quote read: "One could say my life itself has been one long soundtrack. Music was my life, music brought me to life, and music is how I will be remembered long after I leave this life. When I die there will be a final waltz playing in my head, that only I can hear."
Fitzgerald posted the fake quote on Maurice Jarre's Wikipedia page soon after the musician had died. It was then picked up in obituaries that appeared in newspapers, blogs and websites around the world.

The Australian (7 May 2009)
DeciplesWorld is reporting that "the Nashville-based Disciples of Christ Historical Society suffered severe water damage the last weekend of April when what the organization believes was a faulty valve in the heating and air-conditioning system allowed gallons of water to pour from top to bottom of the half-century-old Thomas W. Phillips Memorial Archives that houses the society." (See the complete article by Ted Parks. Disciples Historical Society sustains severe water damage).
"On Tuesday, staff packaged 115 boxes of damp items, including books, periodicals, church records, and video tape, for shipment to a company in Michigan that freeze-dries archival and museum materials to remove moisture. Out of the 12,000 cubic feet of material the society stores, only about 130 cubic feet of books and other items got wet and required repair, Harwell explained."
The Disciples of Christ Historical Society Library contains "37,000 books, 35,000 biographical files, 25,000 congregational records, and 2,000 audio-visual items."
Sara Howell, DCHS Chief Archivist sent me this link to other pictures of the damage.

Wiki Headlines
23rd Oct: It's time for the second TV Tropes Halloween Avatar Contest, theme: cute monsters! Details and voting here.
main index
Mater is a closeted homosexual.Jossed in the sequel. Why do people keep guessing this for at least one character in EVERY show?
Satan made the carsThere, problem solved. You might be wondering why it was Satan and not God; its because mankind supposedly was made in Yahweh's image or some bullshit like that, so God cannot possibly be behind the creation of sapient, non-anthropomorphic cars. By contrast, Satan/Lucifer is described as a draconic light/air angel in the Bible that vomits water. It may not seem very car-like, but that's just because he has more imagination.
The movie is a post-apocalyptic follow-up to Toy Story.Why would a world be populated by vehicles with space for drivers? Because there was once someone to drive them. Everything humans made had the potential to become sapient, but only if humans (or other living things) imprinted personalities on them. This happens strongly enough with toys, by their nature, that they "wake up" almost immediately; with other things, this was not the case. Then the humans all died out, and over time, the cars slowly awakened with the degree of personalities they had received from the humans. (Americans love cars.)
Alternatively, Cars takes place after Maximum Overdrive.Sentient cars, machines with dangerous and even homicidal tendencies? This is what happened after the humans were forced into hiding!
Actually, Cars is a post-apocalyptic distant-future follow-up to The Love BugHerbie was to the Vehicles what Caesar was to the Apes.
Cars and the Burnout games take place in the same universeBoth include a world fully designed to accommodate humans while distinctly lacking them, and feature self-piloting cars. Burnout would occur somewhere in the brutal past of Cars or in the bleak future, when society has dissolved and all the cars have turned feral, possibly due to The Virus.
The Cars world is not Earth, but a long-lost colony of Velocitron in the distant future of Transformers Cybertron.The ancestors of the characters were Velocitronians who visited Earth, which is why their descendants have Earth car forms; they were cut off from other alternatives. Rather than return to Velocitron, they decided to forge a new world of roads to challenge their racing skills. To honor the humans' part in stopping the Unicron Singularity, they named one of the first major roads after an Earth locale, Route 66. Soon after, a remaining group of aggressive Decepticons attacked and hit the planet with a version of the transformation lock virus from Beast Wars. The Decepticons were defeated, but the Cars Worlders were trapped in vehicular form; even the data used in reproduction was corrupted. Eventually, the Cars Worlders descendants lost the capacity for transforming and evolved into the body styles of the film. The only remnant of the faded memories of Velocitron is a love for racing; those skilled at it are treated like we treat pro athletes.
The Cars universe is our world after everything was automated, cars were intentionally given artificial personalities and put on a grid, and everyone died of something stupid (poison or radiation) that doesn't cause property damage.The reason the cars have opaque windshields is because nobody ever drove once the cars were put on the computer-control grid. People could watch movies on the inside during long trips and give the outside more "personality". The cars are more squishy because they are made of super tear-resistant fabric over warping frames (unlikely, looking at Mater), or are Nerf cars, both of which are real concept designs (the former of which was available on the market a couple of years ago from BMW). Something happened to humans at least 50 years ago that didn't wipe out electronics. The reason that cars correspond roughly to our current cars is that the classic-style cars were only made for collectors, and the more modern-looking cars were mass-produced. The cars can still fuel up and everything because the pumps are fully automated and/or they use some sort of hydrogen fuel cell that we have yet to invent, and the tractors were built as non-methane producing replacements for cows after artificial meat became popular.
The Cars are actually a race of car-shaped aliens.First of all: cars don't have eyes. They speak English because they picked up our language and stuff from the Internet. Eventually, the aliens forgot they were not from Earth and actually believed they were real cars. Where are the humans? Read the above WMG.
The passengers are still in the cars.They just never leave.
There are passengers, and they have the cars hooked up to their brains.This is why the cars have personalities and voices and can move about freely (jumping included).
Lightning McQueen is Steve McQueen.Continuing the WMG above, Lightning may be Steve McQueen with his brain hooked up to a car. "Lightning" is simply a nickname that he eventually gained after this happened.
Lightning got shocked one too many times by Dr. Mater and lost large patches of his memory.That's why he never remembers Mater's Tall tales even though he was there when they happened.
Lightning is a famous racer in a coma.He was put that way by a terrible racing accident, and the whole movie is a giant dream sequence. When he first comes into this "dream world", it's more of a nightmare for him.
Sally knew that Doc was a racer.During her time staying at Radiator Springs, Sally looked into Doc's garage and discovered his past. She was going to ask Doc about it, but she learned how much he doesn't want to talk about the life that nearly killed him. So she decided to keep it a secret from everyone, especially Doc. This explains why she's upset at Doc for calling the news and the press to send McQueen away. When she said "Best for everyone, or best for you?", Doc realized that she knows.
The Cars universe diverges from the same Alternate Continuity as 9.In 9, it is revealed that the Industrial Revolution never ended, and machines were given artificial intelligence. They turned against the humans and wiped them out. The Cars universe is a more positive result of this. However, something happened that caused humans to disappear, leaving only the cars.
The Cars universe is set in the story of earth after a "Grey Goo" nanomachine disaster.A grey goo disaster happens when nanomachines go out of control, copy themselves as they record everything, and reduce the surface of the earth to grey goo. In the Cars universe, the goo eventually tries to recreate the world it remembers — but its memories are flawed. It remembers vehicles and roads the most, so it creates the world in that image - which explains why even the mountains look like cars.
Most of the above WMGs make no sense because Cars obviously takes place near the end of the 20th century/beginning of the 21st.Seriously? Cars is from a post-apocalyptic wasteland? The passengers are using the cars like the chairs in Wall-E? This makes no sense. Look at the structures, the older cars like Doc Hudson and that really old granny car. There's no way those cars could have survived that far (at least a century) into the future for any of this to happen. The one with passengers in the cars makes a little sense, but remember that a lot of the cars in Radiator Springs remember a time before the interstate. That's in the 1930s, or too far back for your theories to be plausible. I know this isn't technically a WMG but it doesn't fit in any of the above because it applies to tons of them.
Cars is just Andy playing with Hot WheelsThe opening of Toy Story 3 suggests the idea that it's what toys truly experience during playtime. So a bunch of toy cars being played with would experience a whole different world. A toy car resembling Lightning McQueen even appears at Sunnyside.
HARV is a human being.
This movie takes place in an Alternate UniverseThere are car versions of real people like Jay Leno and Arnold Schwarzenegger, there are real places and locations made to fit with it's automotive citizens, and the car versions of other Pixar movies imply that there are car versions of the Pixar crew working on animated car films. So that means that there must be a car version of everyone on Earth throughout history.
The cars are able to move because they are Merchandise-Driven.Rule of Symbolism.
Mater's Tall Tales are all trueExcept for the bits at the end where he says Lightning was a part of them. Mater just says that to mess with him.
The Cars world co-exists with the Thomas the Tank Engine world and vice versa.Think about it. Both universes have Animate Inanimate Vehicles have little to no explanation how they came about, and both have very very little humans present (and in Thomas's case they're rarely shown).
Cars, like monsters, can slip into a parallel universe.Maybe when they go in a garage, they can drive out through the back wall into their world? It certainly makes car wrecks in our world much more horrifying, though.
Cars takes place in the normal Pixar universe, but it goes like this...At some point during the Pixar universe timeline, sentient cars built by the humans rose up and took over. The humans who weren't killed went into hiding in the places that the cars couldn't get to. At some point, though, the Cars universe falls apart. Why? Lack of fuel. They need it to run. They haven't developed many alternative energy sources. Only the richest cars of all could afford to be converted to solar power. Lightning McQueen couldn't, because after his racing career died (when the fuel was running out, racing was one of the first things to go) he spent all his money on car hookers, and car drugs like car-caine. He dies of an overdose, and the rest of the cast who haven't died are forced to live in this apoc-car-lyptic world. Eventually, nearly every car dies off. The few that are left get destroyed by the uprising humans, who saw the rapidly falling car population as their chance to take back over. They do so and rebuild the world, eventually into the futuristic one we see in WALL-E...
Acer's Start of Darkness came after a horrific injury....when Alice's dad tried to park his Skylark in Acer's trunk...
McMissile is......actually Doc Hudson, but altered for his role as a spy car!
Lightning McQueen and Sally are like parental figures to Mater.
Our own world is the Cars world after a Zombie Apocalypse.
Zundapp is an ex-Nazi.
Francesco is Agent Simmons.
Cars in this world can adapt, same way as humans in our world can.It would help explain some things, like how they are still around after all these years.
New cars come from...
Cars and other vehicles "evolve", at a much faster rate than organic life does.Or scientists and engineers figure out ways to improve the species, and then incorporate these designs into the next generation. This is why older cars are different models than younger ones.
The Cars universe is actually a level of "car heaven".Cars from our world that were well-loved by their owners are reborn into this world when they "die".
Rust is a diseaseIt seems like in the two movies, rust can act like leprosy or be an indicator of one's rapid aging. Maybe for Mater's case it relates to the former, his mind can't catch up with the aging and reverts him to a child like demeanor.
The mixed critical reception of Cars 2 was mostly because Bruce Campbell's character got killedCome on, nobody wants to see the Man with the Chin dying.
Red is part animal.He never actually speaks, just occasionally vocalizes and sounds his siren. Since he's a firetruck (and I always imagined elephants would be depicted as firetrucks in the Cars universe), we can maybe assume he's part elephant... After all the tractors are cows and Frank the Bulldozer is a bull, etc. Furthermore Tony Trihull, the lemons' combat ship, is said to be part shark, despite having human dialogue.
Cars is a distant sequel to Stephen King's TrucksIn Trucks some unknown force causes vehicles to become sentinent and rebel against their human masters. Over time, that same mysterious force caused the cars to keep evolving into the living, talking cars from the movie, while Humans eventually became extinct because the smarter cars didn't need them anymore and exterminated them.
The Pizza Planet truck is behind the car versions of the other Pixar movies seen in the end credits.In this universe, as we see, it's alive. It makes movies based on the weird things it sees in its travels. Also, the movies aren't completely the same as ours since it's going off very little information, just a few scenes happen to match up. Notice how there's no car version of The Incredibles or Finding Nemo, since it doesn't appear in the former and is in a hypothetical situation in the latter.
Cars takes place in a world after humans, but not through any violent car uprising.At some point, humans started making vehicles and machines with artificial intelligence. After the humans died off, perhaps in biological warfare or a nuclear war, the cars still remained. They all had some degree of self-preservation instinct programmed in, so they would get gas and repairs, and try to continue life as normal by doing things they were already programmed to do, like build more machines. At some point, a glitch in programming caused some machines gain more sentience and intelligence than the previous machines. They developed stronger self-preservation instincts, along with traits like curiosity and creativity. These cars lasted longer and replicated their programming for new machines, in a process something like a car evolution. Less intelligent machines continued to be built for work purposes, giving them an equivalent to animals.
Francesco Bernoulli is bisexualI mean come on look at how he's paying so much attention to Lightning.

Air Jordan 11 Low "Concord" – Release Reminder
May 2nd, 2014 by Brendan Dunne | 12 comments
The Air Jordan 11 Low "Concord" will release tomorrow, May 3rd. Keep in mind that if you're planning to grab a pair on Nikestore the process has been changed just a little bit – these will drop at 10AM EST instead of the standard 8AM time. How much of an effect this will have on the whole process remains to be seen, but at the very least those of you in the more western parts of the country will get a bit more sleep in time during the weekend. Get one last peek at the "Concord" Jordan 11 Low after the click and then see what's already available on eBay.

The Kansas City Chiefs were expected to cut DE Tyson Jackson unless he agreed to restructure his contract.
And Jackson restructured.
Jackson was scheduled to make $14.72 million. Now, his deal is much more manageable.
Jackson's new base salary is $4.2 million. He will receive $4 million guaranteed. He'll also receive a $500,000 workout bonus and can achieve $3.875 million in escalators.
That makes Jackson's new deal count as $7.2 against the salary cap.
I seriously doubt Jackson was going to be able to swing $7 million in 2013 through a free agency contract.
By restructuring his deal, Jackson guarantees himself at least $4 million and also buys himself more time to develop and prove he really is worth a big time payday.
Jackson isn't exactly hurting for money. He was drafted in the era of monster rookie contracts and he was taken as the third pick in his draft class.
But Jackson hasn't lived up to his draft stock. While most players can't wait to hit free agency, for other players, sometimes staying with their current team and taking an abbreviated version of their deal is advantageous. Jackson is worth more to the Chiefs right now than he is to the market, and he and his agent probably realize that.
For the Chiefs, they buy themselves another year of Jackson's services and while he isn't a world beater, "Tin Man" is certainly adequate enough to start.

Raw and honest, Rachel Wilkerson's blog, The Life & Lessons of Rachel Wilkerson, is captivating and heartfelt. Covering the trials and tribulations of her personal life, her blog gives advice on everything from the serious (like moving house, which is so stressful) to the mundane (fun nail art!) and everything in between. We appreciate anyone that keeps it real the way she does, so we're excited to have her as this week's guest blogger.
How many of us were told when we first started wearing makeup that the secret is to make it look like you aren't wearing any makeup at all? Trouble is, that's much harder to do than it sounds. But after years of trying (and not always being so subtle), I've learned how to pull off the natural look in a way that appears healthy, bright-eyed, and pulled-together. Here are some of my tips:

There's a longstanding debate in the beauty world about the perils of parabens. Found in everything from toothpaste to moisturizers, these chemicals act as preservatives to prevent the growth of microbes and bacteria in products. But parabens in their isolated form also have estrogen-like qualities. First introduced in 1984, they came under attack when a 2004 study detected them in breast cancer tissue (though the study didn't establish any causal connection). Some ingredient watchdogs continue to argue that parabens should be avoided at all costs, while others say it's perfectly safe to use products containing small doses of parabens. So should you be worried? Probably not. Click through to learn why!

In what came as a surprise, CaneInsider confirmed earlier this morning that redshirt freshman RB Danny Dillard is no longer a part of the UM football team. Dillard becomes the second football player to leave this week, joining DE/TE Dyron Dye who was dismissed from the team on Monday.
CaneInsider has learned that reserve RS Freshman RB Danny Dillard is no longer on the team: http://t.co/jEhcwKjSO6 via @CANEINSIDER
— Brandon Odoi (@Brandon_Odoi) August 20, 2013
According to Brandon Odoi, Dillard had been battling for the No. 2 running back position, however, his play this fall was merely 'okay.'
From CaneInsider:
Dillard was not present during the final day of Fall Camp on [sic] yesterday and all players were said to be participating without injuries."
The University of Miami did not provide any specifics as to why Dillard is no longer with the team.
Dillard (Bradenton, Fla.) did not see any action during the 2012 season and redshirted to retain eligibility. He was a consensus 3-star prospect coming out of high school and ranked as the No. 185 prospect in the state of Florida and the No. 80 running back in the nation (247Composite).
Dillard was battling current UM running backs Dallas Crawford, Eduardo Clements and Walter Tucker for a spot in this year's rotation.

On Defense:
– The Rams do have big play ABILITIES but aren't really known for their big plays. They seemed to have found a solid receiving corp in Amendola, Quick and TE Kendricks. Amendola is as good as it gets right now in the NFL and although his stats don't show it, mainly because he was out for a while with a serious shoulder injury, Amendola is a serious tough cover for any CB as he's as shifty and hungry as any WR playing right now. He runs superb routes and utilizes his quickness to get open. I would assume anyone other than Cromartie on Amendola and the Jets are forfeiting. Brian Quick on the other hand is a tall/fast WR that can present matchup problems considering after Cromartie, the cover drop off is steeper than the Mariana Trench. The Jets have a serious problem in their secondary and it goes by the name of Kyle Wilson and trust and believe Rams offensive coordinator and former Jets offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer will undoubtedly go after Kyle Wilson ad nauseam.
- The Jets D-line played well against the Seahawks up until the point they just couldn't hold it together anymore and gave up one too many big plays. They will be tested by Rams RB Stephen Jackson who is quietly notorious for hitting the holes and taking advantage of any and everything that his o-line gives him. The film shows that Jackson is still the work horse for the Rams as he's always been and certainly has the ABILITY to opens things up effectively for Sam Bradford and that Rams passing offense. The film also shows that Jackson has been vastly less effective this season than any season he's been in St Louis. Jackson is averaging 3.7 yards per carry and has rushed for 504 yards thus far. He has only rushed for 2 TDs this season and is averaging about 56 yards per game, which are not exactly eye popping numbers, which is why the Rams have started to implement rookie Daryl Richardson in the running game. Richardson is averaging about 5.7 yards per carry and is clearly quicker than Stephen Jackson at this point. Richardson on tape is FAST, very fast and is becoming a home run hitter for them Rams and is clearly becoming the future as Jackson is certainly going to be playing somewhere else next season. The Jets will see a lot of Jackson and Richardson on Sunday and the D-line will have their hands full with both no doubt.
– Jets pass rush has been a carousel of who can suck the LEAST and if given time, Sam Bradford has the ability to pick a defense apart and the Jets cant let that happen. No more Maybin as he's been released and right now the Jets are looking for anyone to step up…..ANYONE!!!!!!!!

Well, that was something.
The San Antonio Spurs defeated the Miami Heat 110-95 in Game 1 of the NBA Finals. It was a close game throughout, but the Spurs closed it out on a 16-3 run to grab the 1-0 series lead.
The real story was the malfunction of the air-conditioning units of the AT&T Center. It's Game 1 of the NBA Finals and the last thing the league needed is something like that effecting a game in their showcase event. Both teams were clearly dealing with the heat, as you could see players trying to cool off on the bench for much of the night.
The other subplot is LeBron James sitting out the majority of the fourth quarter because of leg cramps. Once he went down, the Heat fell apart. More on this in bit.
Aside from all that nonsense, they did manage to play some basketball.
Things that pleased me: Chris Bosh kept up his hot streak, by going for 18 points and 9 rebounds. He was also 3/4 from downtown. He was playing with confidence, as he had his jumper and ball fake working to perfection. He even had a 4-point play that helped put the Heat up 7 in the fourth.
Ray Allen was putting the fear of Jesus (Shuttlesworth) into Spurs fans, as you could hear the shrieks of horror every time he took an open 3-point attempt. Allen went for 16 points, and even had a monster dunk (!) in the third.
LeBron dropped 25 points in his 32 minutes of action, but he had to sit out the bulk of the fourth with muscle cramps. Dwyane Wade also contributed 19 points, while looking as spry as ever.
Miami's defense kept Tony Parker in check, as he was limited to 12 points in the first 3 quarters. Sadly, they had to play a fourth quarter.
Things that annoyed me: The collapse of the Heat defense in the fourth quarter was painful to watch. Miami plays a very hyperactive defense that uses rotations and traps to throw off offenses. They forced 22 Spurs turnovers with that activity. However, they ran out of gas in the fourth quarter, as the combination of the heat, coupled with LeBron's absence, really hurt them as they allowed San Antonio to shoot 14/16 in the fourth, with 6/6 coming from 3-point range. That's not going to beat the Spurs.
Danny Green scored 11 of his 13 points in the quarter, as Miami lost him on screens and/or failed to close out on him when he was open. This was a theme in last year's Finals.
Things that perplexed me: A couple of years ago, I was playing flag football with some friends when I started to cramp up in my right leg. I sat out a few plays trying to stretch it out. Once I came back, I cramped up in my left leg. I was walking around like the Tin-Man and was in the absolute worst pain; you really can't move a whole lot. Point is, LeBron James is the best player on the planet, and he happened to cramp up in the fourth quarter. I'm just a guy writing a blog; you're just someone reading this blog. It can happen to anyone.
However, The Keepers of the Holy Grail of Jordan have risen up to bring down LeBron. You see, Michael Jordan was brought to this realm because of a tear in reality that allowed his essence to seep into our plane of existence. He then used his abilities to become the greatest basketball player ever. He would have played through muscle cramps, while battling the flu, because his powers grant him the strength to move beyond pain. He becomes the purest of light that we puny mortals can never comprehend because we only have five senses. He would also sell $300 shoes, just because. How dare you compare a foolish human to him? Or something.
Summary: we all get muscle cramps. They hurt. A lot. It sucks when they occur at the worst time. But that's life.
Scale of 1-to-10, How badly did you want to throw a lamp because of Mario Chalmers?: 10. I have a great patience for Mario Chalmers. I understand what you're signing up for when you have to watch him. Last night was bad. In 17 minutes of play, he had 5 turnovers and 5 fouls. Those turnovers were a lot of the "Drive to the basket and lose the ball" variety that he has patented. He never got going, which has been a common theme this postseason. He can be his own worst enemy, which can happen to all the great ones. At least, that's what he's thinking.
What we learned: Other than playing basketball in 90 degree temperatures is only fun when you're playing for an hour and a half, while taking 10 minute breaks every 20 minutes? Probably that Spurs are really good when they are wide open. The Spurs shot 59% from the field (52% from 3) over the course of the game. The Heat just can't allow them to get open looks at will.
Say what you want about the AC being a factor, but the Spurs also had to deal with it. Gregg Popovich was able to manage his team's minutes better, as Green, Kawhi Leonard, and Tiago Splitter all contributed big in the fourth, as all three played less than 28 minutes each.
Panic meter: 1. Much like Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals, the Heat let a team have a crazy shooting night and it proved to be their downfall. Thing is, the Spurs are not the Pacers. Miami has to be cognizant of giving guys too much space on the perimeter because San Antonio will make them pay. LeBron's issues also didn't help matters.
The Heat could have won this game. Hopefully the AC and the effort are working in Game 2.

BUFFALO, NY (WKBW) -- As Republican candidate for New York Governor Carl Paladino continues to get blasted by his political enemies, a famous NFL Hall of Fame player is coming to the Buffalo millionaire's defense.
Former Buffalo Bill player Thurman Thomas is appearing in a new campaign television commercial scheduled to air across the state next week.
Politics is a dirty business. Now political insiders who feel Carl Paladino's plan to clean up Albany are calling him a racist," Thomas says in the ad.
I've known Carl for years. He's no racist."
Gov. David Paterson, former state comptroller H. Carl McCall and former U.S. Senator Alfonse D'Amato, a Republican, have been hammering Paladino since his big Primary win on Tuesday.
Critics point to Paladino's plan to to send those on welfare to prison dorms to learn better hygiene and offensive e-mails he sent about President Barack Obama.
"Carl has created hundreds of jobs for people of color," Thomas says in the TV spot supporting Paladino. "He's funded a homeless mission for 15 years feeding, housing and educating Buffalo's poorest families."
Attorney General Andrew Cuomo, Paladino's Democratic opponent, was asked about the e-mails -- some of which included pornographic videos featuring beastiality -- but refused to say what he thinks of them.
"I believe he himself said that they were at a minimum inappropriate," Cuomo said in his first public comments on the campaign since Paladino's Tuesday victory.
Cuomo is so adept at not saying much about Paladino, that reporters ended up asking about Paladino's famous dog Duke and whether Cuomo has any pets.
"At this point in my life I am without a pet. I'm not happy about it by the way," he said, then adding with a smile: "I think we've exhausted all of the relevant questions today."

JIHAD is not the same as terrorism but the opposite - it is the war on terrorism, a visiting Islamic scholar told a large Muslim meeting in Melbourne last night.
''The Australian Federal Police are the jihadi element of the Australian government - they are trying to maintain law and order,'' Brother Imran told a largely Arab audience that overflowed the Sidney Myer Asia Centre at Melbourne University into two upper floors with large screens.
''People who try to keep law and order are jihadis, and people who try to break it are terrorists,'' Brother Imran said
''Extremist elements are wrongly calling themselves jihadis, and that is confusing everyone.''
The seminar - ''Jihad and terrorism: are they the same''? - was organised by the Islamic Research and Educational Academy, with the support of some of Melbourne's more conservative Muslim groups, traditionally more wary of integrating, including Sheikh Mohammed Omran's Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jama'ah and the Islamic Information and Services Network of Australia.
Preston Mosque, the Islamic Council of Victoria and several other Islamic groups also supported the seminar.
Brother Imran, an Indian Muslim from Hyderabad, said some media helped created misconceptions among Muslims and about Muslims.
Most Muslims got news from hearsay rather than direct investigation, but the Koran clearly instructed people to verify news before they reacted, he said.
Brother Imran said Australian Muslims must follow Australian laws and obey Australian authorities, and that it was safer and more comfortable to be a Muslim in Australia than it was in most countries.
But he said Australian authorities should not treat Muslims as more suspicious than other groups because that created misconceptions inside and outside the community and made Muslims defensive.
Brother Imran said there were 1565 terrorist attacks in Europe between 2007 and 2010, of which only six were carried out by Muslims.
More than 1400 were by Irish groups, he said.
Greg Barton, of Monash University's Global Terrorism Research Centre, told the meeting it was important to distinguish between individuals who used violence for political causes and the wider community on whose behalf they claimed to act.
Professor Barton told The Age he spoke as an academic and a Christian, because it was important for this audience - many of whom did not have much contact with the wider community and tended to believe the world prejudged Muslims - to see that Christians were sympathetic.
Organiser Wasim Razvi said he wanted to reach lay Muslims, not just leaders, and that all the groups involved had strong followings.

Professional Development Hours and American Institute of Certified Planners Credits
TRB is authorized to issue
Professional Development Hours (PDH)
for select, live webinars. TRB is a registered provider with the Registered Continuing Education Provider (RCEP) program. As a registered provider, TRB will be reporting attendee participation of select webinars to RCEP, and provide a certificate of completion to webinar attendees. Not all TRB webinars will qualify for PDH certificates, so please view the webinar registration page to determine if TRB will provide a certificate of completion. To ensure that TRB webinar PDHs are approved by your board, please contact your licensing board.
TRB is registered with the American Planning Association's professional institute, the American Institute of Certified Planners (AICP), to provide Certification Maintenance credits.
Please view each webinar registration page to determine if a webinar is providing AICP credits.
A typical webinar session:
A typical TRB webinar runs approximately 90 minutes. Usually, three to four panelists present information for a total of 60 minutes. Presenters broadcast their PowerPoint presentation from their own computer. They communicate with the audience using Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) or their telephone. Audience members listen to the webinar via telephone or computer speakers, and are automatically muted during the session.
To interact with the presenters, audience members type their questions and comments into a chat box. Once the presentations conclude, we hold a 30 minute question and answer session. A designated question and answer moderator will read the questions and comments submitted by the audience, and presenters answer those questions. We also disseminate polls and surveys to the audience to increase their interaction with the presenters. Webinars are recorded and can be viewed in Windows Media Player.

If a webinar needs to be rescheduled for any reason, TRB will contact you via email to discuss the situation and will provide information about rescheduling the session.

I can admit, what I am I am not.
The one who's left behind of best forgot.
I am not special, I am common clay.
I am the one who's morals decay.
I am not the one with something to show.
Of significance I will never know,
I am the one destined to choke.
Take to the grave the words I never spoke.
I am the addict seeking an escape,
Alone and sober when the silence breaks,
Sell my soul, all debts are repaid.
I am the one of whom stigmas are made.
My best intention, a free floating thought,
Stripped, barely alive, or all for naught.
