In this short post I go over the Sit 'em & Start 'em picks that I made before the weekend. I also go over players who had a breakout game and could be worth a waiver wie pickup. Get a hold of me on Twitter: @Blackie_Mike Start 'em: Freeman had another solid fantasy performance as his Buccs scored more than 40 points against the Oakland Raiders and is looking like a top-12 QB (TB) Josh Freeman vs. (OAK): – 18/30 248 yards 2TD, 5 rush 22 yards – Another solid effort from the young Buccaneers quarterback, Freeman was two yards short of having his 20th fantasy point in the game. Doug Martin absolutely decimated the Raiders defense, limiting the amount of throws Freeman was required to make, but he was still able to throw for a pair of touchdowns. Doug Main is currently the hottest running back in the league, I ma thinking they might need to plan around him more, forcing more from Freeman. (HOU) Matt Schaub vs. (BUF): 19/27 268 yards 2TD – Schaub had a very similar game to Freeman, throwing for about 20 more yards, but rushing for 20 less. These are the types of matchups that I try to exploit from quarterback likes Schaub; he has much harder matchup next week vs. the Bears but has another good one after that against the Jaguars. (BAL) Joe Flacco vs., (CLE): 15/24 153 yards TD – Flacco didn't do a whole lot in this game as Ray Rice and backup running back Bernard Pierce each rushed for a touchdown while combining for 32 rush attempts compared to only 24 pass attempts from Flacco. I think I would be more comfortable owning Freeman or Schaub moving forward. (CLE) Trent Richardson vs. (BAL): 25 carries 105 yards, 6 catches 31 yards – A solid 130 total yards from Richardson in the loss to the Ravens, unfortunately though no touchdown to top it off. Richardson also has some beatable matchups coming up against the Cowboys, Steelers and more so the Raiders. Leshoure scored three of his teams four rushing touchdowns on Sunday, which should help sate frustrated fantasy owners. (DET) Mikel Leshoure vs. (JAX): 16 rush 70 yards 3TD – Leshoure had a fantastic day, taking three of his 16 carries across the goal line for pay dirt and a monster fantasy day. The matchup against the Jaguars was a great one, but it seems as though the Lions do have a much more balanced offence now; backup RB Joique Bell was still able to add 73 yards on his 13 carries with a touchdown. (PHI) DeSean Jackson vs. (NO): – (BUF) Stevie Johnson vs. (HOU): 3 catches 29 yards – Donald Jones ended up leading the Bills in targets with nine as they played from behind against the Texans. I had hoped despite being a little banged up the Bills would basically need a big game from Johnson, but that was not the case. The Bills were held to just three field goals. (CAR) Greg Olsen vs. (WAS): 5 catches 48 yards – With LaFell not available, Olsen was the number two option for Newton, but was unable to cash in as Newton carried the ball himself for one of the Carolina touchdowns while DeAngelo Williams rushed for the other. Neither Steve Smith nor Olsen was particularly great in this game, but Smith was able to come up with his first touchdown catch of the season, hopefully the first of many. Daniels had been a fantasy darling, catching touchdowns in five of his last six starts. (HOU) Owen Daniels vs. (BUF): 4 catches 62 yards – Daniels got things started off early with a 39-yard touchdown catch, and while he didn't do much the rest of the game, his 12 point fantasy effort is his 4th in his last five starts. Daniels is looking like one of the best, at least the most consistent tight ends in football. Sit 'em: Weedon wasn't able to do much against a Ravens defence coming off the bye week and has another tough matchup in week ten. (CLE) Brandon Weedon vs. (BAL): 20/37 176 yards, 2INT, 2 rush 11 yards – A another very rough game from the rookie Weedon, throwing for less than 200 yards despite 37 attempts, while adding a pair off interceptions. I don't expect much more next week against the Cowboys, one of the toughest teams in the league against the pass. (MIN) Christian Ponder vs. (SEA): 11/22 63 yards INT, 5 rush 23 yards – Ponder was outmatched by Russell Wilson on the weekend, with Wilson completing 16 of his 24 attempts, with three of them going for touchdowns. In the loss, the Vikings depended on Adrian Peterson to keep them alive, in which he tried his best, finishing the game with 182 yards and 2 touchdowns on only 17 carries. (TEN) Chris Johnson vs. (CHI): 16 rush 144 yards TD, 2 Lost Fumbles – Johnson's fantasy day was saved by a 80-yard touchdown run in a lost cause, when the touchdown was scored the Bears were already up by more than 30 points. Johnson was being shutdown until this point and did lose two fumbles, but it is nice to see him breaking big plays like this and against a defense like the Bears. (IND) Donald Brown / Vick Ballard vs. (MIA): Ballard; 16 rush 60 yards, 3 catch 38 yards – Donald Brown suffered another injury early in the game after getting only one touch of the ball and was forced to leave the game while backup Vick Ballard got the rock 16 times but was only able to total 60 yards rushing, he did however add 38 yards in the air. If you can get a week or two of Ballard on his own, I would feel good about starting him as he seems to be capable of 100 yards when given the ball enough times. (BUF) Fred Jackson / C.J. Spiller vs. (HOU): Jackson; 35 total yards / Spiller; 102 total yards – Both players got 6 carries but neither topped 40 yards rushing, Spiller however was able to have himself a pretty good day by catching 5 catches for 63 yards, giving him just over 100 yards all purpose. It is nice to see Spiller have a good game against such a stellar defense, but life would be easier if we knew who would get the bigger role each week. I still prefer to own Jackson. (DAL) Miles Austin vs. (ATL): 7 catches 76 yards – Kevin Ogletree is back on the tongues of fantasy football owners as it was he who caught the lone Cowboys touchdown on Sunday night; Miles Austin, while more than doubling Ogletree's targets (9-4) ended the game with just 76 yards. Miles should be able to do more next week against the Eagles. (NYG) Hakeem Nicks vs. (PIT): 1 catch 10 yards – As someone who owns Eli Manning in more than one league I can tell you that the Giants passing game is not at the level it has been in the past. It also doesn't help that Nicks doesn't seem to be healthy still; how else to explain Cruz getting 11 targets while Nicks only has four, the same as TE Bennett. Nicks and the Giants do have some good matchups coming up however against the Bengals, Packers and Redskins. After being the most picked up player in many formats last week, Young came back to earth with just two catches against the Jaguars. (DET) Titus Young vs. (JAX): 2 catches 20 yards – As I predicted this game was all about the Detroit running game and Calvin Johnson. Mikel Leshoure and Joique Bell combined for more than 140 yard rushing and four touchdowns, while Calvin added just under 130 yards in the air; in the end Young was left with just 20 catches for 20 yards. (GB) Jermichael Finley vs. (ARZ): 1 catch 6 yard – Not really much to say here; Finley only had two targets in the game, catching one. Until Finley is healthy and more involved in the Packers game plan again, you need to look elsewhere to fill you starting line up.

|NFL roundup: Anquan Boldin re-signs with 49ers, defends coach Jim Harbaugh
|03.04.14 at 10:19 am ET
Wide receiver Anquan Boldin will return to the 49ers, the veteran announced via his Twitter account Monday afternoon.
.@49ers fans, I wanted to be the first to tell you I'm returning to San Francisco – http://t.co/XsGmyZRTSE pic.twitter.com/SgOtlLPTH7
' Anquan Boldin (@AnquanBoldin) March 3, 2014
San Francisco also announced Monday that the two sides agreed to a two-year deal, but the team did not disclose the terms of the contract. According to ESPN NFL insider ED Werder, sources believe Boldin agreed to a deal worth $12 million that includes a guaranteed $9 million.
"We are pleased that Anquan has chosen to continue his career as a 49er," general manager Trent Baalke said in a team statement. "He is a consummate professional whose love and respect for the game provide a tremendous example for all players.
"Anquan has been a very productive player throughout his career, and we look forward to his future contributions to our team and community."
Last season, the 33-year-old wide receiver had 85 catches for 1,179 yards and seven touchdowns.
During a press conference following the announcement of the deal, Boldin also came out in defense of his coach Jim Harbaugh. A recent report by the San Francisco Chronicle stated that a rift existed in the 49ers locker room because of the coach.
"I don't think there's any rift between players and coaches, particularly coach Harbaugh," Boldin said, according to the San Jose Mercury News. "He has good rapport with all the guys I know of. There's no gripes in the locker room when it comes to coach Harbaugh. He wants to win and everybody in the locker room wants to do the same. We're usually on the same page and if not, we have it where we can talk to him and he can talk to us."
|Monday's Morning Mashup: Broncos WR Wes Welker suffers second concussion in 4 weeks

'¢ The Bernard Pollard curse has struck again, but this time it's an ex-Patriot who suffered the injury.
Broncos receiver Wes Welker left Sunday's victory over the Titans with a concussion for the second time in a month, after taking a hit to the head from Pollard late in the second quarter of Sunday's game in Denver.
Welker, who earlier in the game caught his 10th touchdown pass of the season — giving the Broncos a record four players with 10 touchdown receptions this season — walked off the field under his own power but did not return in the second half.
The Broncos play again Thursday night against the Chargers, and there already is speculation that Welker, who also was concussed in a Week 11 win over the Chiefs but returned for the following week's game against the Patriots, will skip that game. Per the league's concussion protocol, Welker will have baseline testing Monday.
Pollard is well known to New England fans for causing injuries to Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski and Stevan Ridley. He also was the defender when Welker suffered a torn ACL and MCL in the final regular-season game in 2009, although Welker suffered the injury trying to make a move, without any contact.
'¢ Meanwhile, Welker's quarterback, Peyton Manning, heard the criticism about his play in cold-weather games, and he had a message for his critics after rallying Denver from an 11-point deficit for a 51-28 rout of the Titans on a day when the temperature was 18 degrees at kickoff.
"Whoever wrote that narrative can shove it where the sun don't shine," Manning said.
Entering the game, Manning had a career record of 3-7 in games when the temperature was 32 or below at kickoff. He proceeded to set a team record with 39 completions (on a team-record-tying 59 attempts). Manning passed for 397 yards and four touchdowns, closing to within five of Tom Brady's single-season record of 50.
Said Manning: "I wasn't trying to answer [the criticism], because I didn't give it any validation in the first place."
Broncos defensive tackle Terrance Knighton said he doesn't expect Manning's critics to relent.
"They'll find something [to talk about]," Knighton said. "They'll probably say, well, he's not good … below zero or something. They'll find something, but I consider us a weatherproof team, and he's a Super Bowl champ. We're not really worried about that. We'll play anywhere, any weather, any conditions."
On a side note, Broncos kicker Matt Prater also didn't let the frigid temperatures bother him, as he kicked an NFL-record 64-yard field goal just before halftime. Two of the four kickers who shared the old record of 63 yards also kicked theirs in Denver, where the altitude offers some assistance — although Prater noted that the benefit from the thin air was evened out by the temperature (14 degrees when he kicked).
"Yes, it kind of takes out the altitude factor," he said.
'¢ Adrian Peterson did not enjoy his trip to Baltimore on Sunday. Not only did the Vikings suffer a 29-26 on a touchdown in the final seconds, Peterson was carted off the field in the second quarter with a sprained foot and did not play another down — although he did watch from the sideline.
But Peterson's main issue was with the officials. The Vikings were called for pass interference on Baltimore's winning drive, nullifying an interception. That was just one of the calls that had Peterson upset.
"Some of the calls that were made, you just went, 'Wow. I can't believe that was called,' " Peterson said.
The running back also had an issue with the Baltimore fans, who braved a snowstorm but were not as well-behaved as Peterson would like.
"They've got the worst fans in the NFL," Peterson said. "[They were] throwing snowballs the entire fourth quarter, like kids."
ON THIS DAY TRIVIA (answer below): On Dec. 9, 1992, the Red Sox signed which free agent who eventually wound up in the Hall of Fame?
|Titans DB Bernard Pollard fined $42K for hit to head
|09.18.13 at 11:03 am ET
Titans safety and noted Patriots villian Bernard Pollard was fined $42,000 by the NFL for his hit Sunday that concussed Texans wide receiver Andre Johnson. On the play, Pollard led with his shoulder but contacted the defenseless receiver's head. He was not penalized by the on-field officials.
The eight-year pro tweeted his fine this morning, writing:
So @nfl said I did "everything right" but 42k later I still get fined. Wow! It's called football but they want 2 hand touch. #TitanUp#
In Tennessee's first two games, Pollard has 15 tackles and one interception.
He also was fined $10,000 for a late hit out of bounds in Tennessee's first preseason game.
Pollard is infamous in New England for his role in a number of key injuries and plays.
As a member of the Chiefs, Pollard delivered the low hit that tore Tom Brady's ACL in 2008. The then-Texan was preparing to tackle wide receiver Wes Welker when Welker's knee gave out, resulting in a torn ACL during the 2009 season. With the Ravens, his tackle on Rob Gronkowski in the 2012 AFC championship game led to a severe ankle sprain that hampered Gronkowski in New England's Super Bowl XLVI loss to the Giants. And in last season's AFC championship game, Pollard knocked Stevan Ridley out of the game with a brutal hit to the head that also forced a decisive turnover.
Fortunately for the Patriots, the Titans are not on the regular-season schedule this year.
|Ravens DB Bernard Pollard predicts demise of NFL
|01.28.13 at 9:39 am ET
Ravens safety Bernard Pollard, best known in New England for his injury-causing hits over the last five years to Patriots players Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski and Steven Ridley, said the league's attempts to make the game safer are likely to lead to its end.
"Thirty years from now, I don't think it will be in existence," he told CBSSports.com. "I could be wrong. It's just my opinion, but I think with the direction things are going — where [NFL rules makers] want to lighten up, and they're throwing flags and everything else — there's going to come a point where fans are going to get fed up with it.
"Guys are getting fined, and they're talking about, 'Let's take away the strike zone,' and, 'Take the pads off,' or, 'Take the helmets off." It's going to be a thing where fans aren't going to want to watch it anymore."
Added Pollard: "The league is trying to move in the right direction [with player safety], but, at the same time, [coaches] want bigger, stronger and faster year in and year out. And that means you're going to keep getting big hits and concussions and blown-out knees. The only thing I'm waiting for … and, Lord, I hope it doesn't happen … is a guy dying on the field. We've had everything else happen there except for a death. We understand what we signed up for, and it sucks.
"Like I said, I pray it never happens, but you've got guys who are 350 pounds running 4.5 and 4.4s, and these owners and coaches want scout-run blockers and linemen to move walls. At the same time, they tell you, 'Don't hit here, and don't hit there, or we'll take your money.' Like I said, I hope I'm wrong, but I just believe one day there's going to be a death that takes place on the field because of the direction we're going."
|Monday's Morning Mashup: Phillies pitcher Cole Hamels admits hitting Nationals rookie Bryce Harper on purpose
|05.07.12 at 7:48 am ET

'¦ Phillies pitcher Cole Hamels sent a message to Nationals rookie Bryce Harper in the first inning of Sunday night's game, hitting him in the back with a fastball. In case the message wasn't received, Hamels admitted after the game that it was no accident.
"I was trying to hit him," Hamels said. "I'm not going to deny it."
Explained the veteran hurler: "That's something I grew up watching, that's kind of what happened. So I'm just trying to continue the old baseball because I think some people are kind of getting away from it. I remember when I was a rookie the strike zone was really, really small and you didn't say anything because that's the way baseball is."
Harper got his revenge later in the inning, stealing home when Hamels made a pickoff attempt to first base. Then in the third inning, Nationals starter Jordan Zimmerman hit Hamels in the leg, drawing a warning to both teams from the umpire.
'¦ During Saturday's Braves-Rockies game in Denver, Rockies pitcher Jamie Moyer approached Chipper Jones while the Braves veteran was on second base and accused him of stealing signs. Jones screamed at Moyer that he was not, and Jones still was bothered by the accusation Sunday.
"I'm not happy, to say the least," Jones said. "Any time a grown man gets his integrity questioned, they're going to take it seriously, and I'm no different. If he wants to discuss it, we'll discuss it, but he's wrong, plain and simple."
Added Jones: "Never have I wanted a sign when I was hitting, and I have never relayed a sign to a hitter from second base, ever."
'¦ Ravens safety Bernard Pollard, known for injuring Patriots players, is not happy with the league's attempts to protect its players. During an interview with Houston radio station Sports Radio 610 last week, Pollard took some shots at the commissioner.
Pollard said the restrictions against illegal hits are "taking away the game of football" and it doesn't bode well for the future. "I just truly believe, another 20, 30 years — I don't even think football will even be in existence anymore," he said, adding: "We all know what this game is about. We know and understand that it's a violent sport."

'¦ Ravens safety Bernard Pollard, known to Patriots fans as the player who caused major injuries to Tom Brady, Wes Welker and, this past season, Rob Gronkowski, is not happy with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell's attempts to make the sport less dangerous.
"It's getting out of hand," Pollard told Houston radio station KILT. "This is not powderpuff football, this is not flag football. This is a violent sport. And it's a fun sport — we all love playing this game. And we're blessed by God to even go out there and display our talent to the world, but at the same time you can't sit there and say, 'We want guts, we want glory, we want heart.' You can't give a player heart but at the end of the day you tell him, 'Well, hold on, but be careful when you go to make that hit.' We wear helmets and shoulder pads. That means you're supposed to go knock somebody around. We ain't wearing flags.'
Regarding the Saints' bounty situation, Pollard said he doesn't care if a team has bounties and called the one-year suspension of Saints coach Sean Payton "outrageous."
'This is a game, this is a violent game. You can't take this away," Pollard said. "You suspend a man for a whole year? You suspend a man for a whole year and now you're looking for players to suspend? This is outrageous. You've got to be kidding me.'
'¦ After coaching Kentucky to the national championship Monday, John Calipari insists he has no desire to leave for the NBA, even though the Knicks reportedly have interest.
"Kentucky is the best job in basketball coaching," Calipari said. "Why would I leave? We just won the national title. We're chasing UCLA."
Meanwhile, a player being recruited by Kentucky, Everett's Nerlens Noel, raised some eyebrows when he recounted a story of walking through Bourbon Street in New Orleans on Final Four weekend and being graciously received by Wildcats fans.
"I'm always just shocked at how dedicated Kentucky fans are," Noel wrote in a diary for ESPN. "One man asked me if I wanted to take his wife home with me, ha ha. I couldn't believe it. I was like 'Nah, I'm good,' but that's just how insane the fans were down there."
'¦ At Wednesday's annual press conference prior to the start of The Masters, August National Chairman Billy Payne refused to answer questions about if and when a woman would be admitted as a member of the club. The topic became relevant again because IBM has a new CEO, Virginia Rometty, and the last four IBM CEOs have been invited to be club members.
"As has been the case whenever that question is asked, all issues of membership have been and are subject to private deliberations of the members," Payne said. "That statement remains accurate and that remains my statement."

Look!: More Photos from the Domino Contest Winner
Beating out over a thousand other entries, Mill Valley's Catherine Golden was the winner of Domino magazine's first-ever decorating contest. The announcement ran in the February issue's "Letter from the Editor," which just hit the newsstands this week. While the contest only covered one room (the sitting area of her master bedroom is shown above), we were lucky enough to get a peek at the rest of Catherine's home:
In her entryway, Catherine painted, lime-washed and stenciled the trellis pattern.
The entryway walls took her a couple of weekends to complete.
She removed several shelves to create a desk niche. The pink behind the desk took four layers to achieve. "The thing I love most is working with color," she said. The top of the desk will be covered with white vinyl, to give it the look of leather.
In the sitting room, Catherine painted and tiled the fireplace. It is another work in progress, as she's currently contemplating a different tile job.
Thanks, Catherine! And congratulations!

i love this home! it's refined, personal, and is obviously LIVED in. it is an ABODE rather than a tightly decorated showcase house. brava, catherine!!
It's too "cute" for me, but there's obviously a lot of good design there. I can't imagine hand stenciling that whole wall. But I love how the wall compliments the green in the painting, not matchy matchy but well cordinated.
I like all of the rooms, except the room in the first photo with the barcelona ottoman. That room seemed a bit forced "eclectic" to me. But it seems a lot of designers/decorators are doing that lately; taking more traditional/transitional pieces as the basis for the room, and then throwing in one statement mid-c modern/bauhaus piece, and calling their style "eclectic" or "eclectic modern."
I am impressed with her use of color. And the hallway is beautiful.
That hallway is absolutely stunning. I want to see more of the dining area - from what I can see, her china collection is well-curated and well-displayed.
Wow, what a nice house. Does anyone know where that chaise is from in the 4th picture? Thank you!
i know i'm in the monority here, but it's all a little hodge-podge for my taste
How do these pics come across as "lived in"?
Yikes! I was not sure these would get posted so just a couple comments from me, Catherine. First, Thank You Anh Minh for your comments! Very Kind of you.
But nothing is finished in the other areas of the house! The photograph in the hall (and hand painted/pasteled frame around it) was never intended to "match" the wall in any way. I love the photo and thought it looked just fine against the apple green "interno" lime wash (by Porter Paints). The hall color absolutely does not photograph well although this is a good one! I myself have tried and tried. It is a bright, saturated color that changes and glows in the natural light. Right now I am nuts about this interno lime wash product. The matting is not done on the photo so justice not done to it yet.
The fabric on chaise in living room is also apple green ultra suade, much brighter then pic. And the desk "nook" has been further demolished. The fireplace surround is being updated with new moasic tile called "jazz" which has not arrived yet and the mantel and frame around mirror to be painted another color and the stuff on the mantel was temporary. The entire house is being updated to a more modern look! (as I get older I want things to look younger!)
As for the bedroom sitting area, I love a mix of old and new which yes, I copied from designers. I think the ottoman adds a classic but modern touch.
Anyway, thanks so much for the comments and if you have any questions just let me know.
It all appears too busy for me. I could never live with all that stuff on all the horizontal surfaces - or that wall of plates, for that matter.
And am I the only one having a hard time figuring out how each of the rooms functions? Not that I mean to be harsh though...
My oh my, I have some beautiful stuff and I like to look at my stuff. I am not one to hide away my beautiful china I collect. The china plates on the shelves in small dinning area are from my trips to Paris.
I have a small house, one story, long and narrow. It is VERY lived in but for God's sake if a person is coming to interview me and maybe take a couple photos I do clean it up. If I had known the pics of other unfinished rooms were going to be posted I would have cleaned up even more and re-arranged some things.
I do LOVE that chaise. I found it on the Lane Venture website and ordered it myself from a North Carlolina furniture place with a deep discount. LV has numerous colors (and I mean COLOR, not just another wood finish) you can choose for their furniture finishes. I sent them my fabrics instead of using theirs. The Fireplace, chaise and desk are all in the living room which is quite small.
Love this.
Thank you, Catherine, for the info!
Your house is absolutely lovely. I've been dying to see it since the Domino contest. Congrats on that btw! I love the picture in the hallway against the lime green. It's very unexpected. I think my aunt has a similar one of Mozart in her home. The fireplace is to die for. As always, it's good to see books in a home! America does read!!!
Thanks again for sharing :-)
I <3 that fireplace!!!
This is SO BEAUTIFUL! Very sophisticated. I love mixing old with new.

A low jolt of electricity has an unusual effect on certain materials: It changes their color. Such electrochromic materials may change color, darken or go clear in response to the current, and then maintain that change when the power is switched off. A second jolt can completely reverse the change. The reaction occurs due to the chemical process of oxidation and reduction (collectively called redox processes), where electrons are lost or gained, respectively. Redox causes a shift in the bands of the electromagnetic spectrum where the chemical will absorb light, and such shifts in the visible region induce color changes. The effect has been observed since the early 19th century, but Mortimer describes recent experiments to elucidate the cause, as well as how materials are being engineered for practical use. Current commercial devices include car mirrors and plane windows that dim automatically to reduce glare. Proposed applications include multicolor displays, protective eyewear, camouflage materials and chameleonic fabrics.

Man pleads not guilty to felony charge in child sex sting
Published On: Jan 09 2014 06:09:46 PM MST

Updated On: Jan 09 2014 06:39:33 PM MST
A man pleaded not guilty to a felony charge after a child sex sting Thursday. Neal Lewis Gray, 54, is charged with felony sexual abuse of children.
Gray is one of seven suspects arrested last month after investigators put an ad on Craigslist about a 12-year-old girl. Prosecutors say Gray responded to the ad, then showed up to meet the 12-year-old with various adult sex devices.
Gray remains in the Missoula County Detention Center on $75,000 bail.
The six other suspects have all bonded out and are scheduled to be arraigned in Missoula County District Court the week of January 20.

Who gives a flying f***!!!!
lol that was toooo sweet! where are all the madre fans now?????? sack up and show up after running your mouths......
I'm sorry I've been under a rock... Did San Diego win the division?
I could hear the explosion all the way back here in Orange County. That was some thud.
I thought that this season the Padres and Dodgers were similar on several levels... here's yet another.
"In a year that has been so improbable, the impossible has happened." - Vin Scully being clairvoyant in 1988.
The Los Angeles Kings - 2012 Stanley Cup Champions
OK, i'll be the first Padre fan that bites...
That was as up and down as i've ever been in a game. Great game all in all. It's hard to be really upset, i mean besides the heart-wrenching nature of it. You win or lose with your best players, and our two best players killed us last night. If Peavy is even remotely Peavy-like, we have a good lead going into the 7th. And if you told me that Trevor'd be in with a 2-run lead, i'd say that's pretty much the best situation we could be in. That's a hell of a way to finish, but i'm not going to let it overshadow what was all-told a pretty impressive season. So soak it up Dodger fans, at least we mattered (slightly) this year.

"Where I live, there are a lot of apathetic people. People who don't care at all about what they do or how they do it. They let the world wash over them and barely notice anyone else is even there. Leslie Knope is not one of these people. She cares about everything and everyone in our town. I don't know how she does it. People come to her with the pettiest, stupidest problems and she cares, like, really, actually cares what happens to them. And if you're lucky enough to be her friend, your life gets better every day. She spends every waking moment thinking of new ways to make her friends happy. There is something wonderful about seeing someone who has found her true purpose on Earth. For some people, I guess, that's being an astronaut or a hot-dog eating champion. For Leslie, her true purpose on Earth, her true meaning is making people's lives better. That's what I love about her."

Q&A: Tobe Hooper
The Hollywood director discusses shooting movies in the U.A.E., what scares him these days, and (almost) hints at his new book
If it weren't for Tobe Hooper, the umpteenth Saw film probably wouldn't be doing the rounds at movie theaters, and Leatherface would never have become one of the most iconic monsters in cinema history.
With The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Hooper became one of the founding fathers of the horror genre, and paved the way for every slasher movie since. In the U.A.E. to direct the supernatural thriller Djinn, he spares a few minutes before filming begins.
What made Djinn stand out from other offers you've received?
It's the best screenplay that I've read in many years, and it was much more of what I've always wanted to do. It's more of a metaphysical thriller, laced with extremely good characters.
How did you go about updating the idea of the djinn?
It's been illuminating. Believe me, it's more than folklore. I started with the internet, and I started with Google Earth, getting as much information as possible. Then, the preparation came around and I started visiting places. I started talking to a lot of people, both within the production and outside of it. I'll be shooting on an ancient territory, a place that's basically in ruins because the djinn had moved the human beings out.
Did you find that people were willing to talk about it?
It's in the Quran that God created men and he created djinn. So they're in parallel worlds, and you actually can't be a believer in one thing without believing in the other. So there was no reluctance. In fact, I found the contrary.
Were you given some guidelines to keep you from offending any cultural sensibilities?
I should say that I have done my very best in integrating into the culture. But yes, I had guidelines. You can't just parachute into a new culture or place without having someone help you. I'm a very sensitive person.
How have you changed as a filmmaker since the days of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre?
A lot of films that I've seen made, particularly for the commercial market, in the U.S. have become more-or-less action films. Quite a lot of them anyway. There are a few films where a story is actually told. I take film as seriously as I did in the beginning, and I love it as much. It's just that the world has changed. I'm not crystallized – I'm aware of that and so I change with the world. At least, I do my best.
So horror has become very glossy and commercialized?
Oh yeah, absolutely. And also the films in the beginning of horror have created great works – archetypes – that people now follow. They think there are certain things that you have to do, and that you need to do. I feel like all those rules should be broken because, if they're not, you don't have a new place to travel to.
Have you seen many of the kinds of movies we're talking about?
Well I've seen some of them. But, you know, they've become so formulated for me that I certainly don't see them all. I see new things that come out that I consider to be horror.
Is it harder to scare people?
It's much harder to scare people in the conventional way. When I made Chainsaw, people jumped and screamed. Poltergeist, they were still screaming in the theater. Now they've seen everything, they've totally had their appetites filled, and the reactions aren't as new now because they're not in some kind of psychological context.
What scares you these days?
The thing that scares me is what goes on in my head as I respond to what's happening in the world. But also the things that slip through the cracks and come into dreams sometimes. I find that I'm still discovering new things about myself, and new things that are disturbing. With regards to horror, CNN provides us with quite a lot. But I find personalized, emotional experiences can be quite terrifying and scary. Because of things that you discover with people. What's behind the behavior? What's the motive? What's the agenda? On the surface you can't always see that.
So are you thinking up ideas for horror stories as you walk around each day?
I've always seen things as movies. My father was in the hotel business and we were always surrounded by movies, so the movie theater was my babysitter. So I actually learned how to move around inside the grammar of cinema before I learned how to speak. But yes, that is an everyday – every-moment – part of my life.
You see movies everywhere you go?
All the time. I mean, most ideas that come to me, I process them – how could this become a movie? The happenings in my life have been extremely movie-like, and I have a book coming out in a few months that I wrote called Midnight Movie. I wrote it with Alan Goldsher … [tails off] … sorry, as I'm talking to you I'm looking out at the set. Even now I'm thinking about this movie.

As a secular society, we must strive to never be lax in our language, and have a firm understanding of what we mean when we utter the dreaded phrase "Happy Holidays," Bill O'Reiily thought he had a Checkmate, Atheists moment when he gleefully pointed out that there are no holidays until Christmas. We poor, poor atheists would therefore be fools to use this greeting. To say the word Christmas should sting like a thousand bees upon our tongues!

People that are banned should get immediatly drug tested I think. What harm can it do. Plus he is massive, and looks too pumped up. Like Dallaglio in theLions 97 video before the match, (and he was on speed and got banned for it in 97). The second punch is sickening. Not professionnal.

How no one put "like" to that comment I don't know. I totally agree. Brilliant how you worded it. "Backs runnng against no opposition" then backs are told to "play whats in front of them" in a match. How are they ment to do that when all theyve ever done in training is run against no opposition?! Im glad to see that people want to revolutionize rugby training. Go into coaching. I would love to coach once ive stopped playing, 95% of the coaches ive had have been ex players who just repeat the same routine training that they themselves did. »

The thing with the All blacks is they all play the same way. All of them play quick ball, bairly ruck and maul, and look for the off load, and they KNOW when they off load, some one will be there. The thing chris ashton was liked for, was how he was always in the right place at the right time, waiting for the last pass or off load. Australia have Foloa who is brilliant at this, Ashton has lost form and should be dropped im not saying otherwise, my point is... New zealand have 15 players in the right place at the right time. They all run brilliant lines and try hunt, looking for the off load. When ever an all black breaks through, there is always someone with him. »

Tomorrow is Mother's Day and I just wanted to say something…
To that special woman in our lives who we love and cherish. The one who has graced and blessed each one us with life and joy. Let us not forget the women before our own mothers who are in our lineage. Happy Mother's Day.
To the women who are soon to be expecting to have one and to the women who have one already to call your own. Happy Mother's Day.
To the women who… Were unable to have one or couldn't save that special life. I've seen the pain in many eyes of what could have been. Even when years go by, they still wonder and sometimes they silently celebrate as if they're still with us. Do not lose hope. I believe God will bless your life with one of your own that you will show your love unconditionally. And when that time comes, I wish you a Happy Mother's Day in advance.
So every type of mother, enjoy your day. Each mother out there deserves this day. But don't stop at just one day. A mother does so much they deserve more.

Cooking directly on a smoothtop...
- u
- unixrunner May 24, 2013 12:58 PM
I saw a video not so long ago, a show that Eric Ripert was hosting and he cooked a piece of salmon directly on a glass smoothtop, but the 'burner' was actually rectangular in shape rather than round, like it was designed for this type of cooking. Does anyone know a company that makes such a smoothtop? If not, is it possible to cook this way on a regular smoothtop?
I have a regular smoothtop and it never would have occurred to me in a million years to cook anything directly on the burner. Never will try it either. Frankly, this was the first I'd ever heard of the practice. Can't speak for Eric and what kind of stove he was using though.
re: BIGGUNDOCTOR
I generally warm up corn tortillas on the grill, but will do on my smooth top if I just want one or two.... I'll do them on a gas burner too.
If you are going to ruin a smoothtop, this could be the way to go! Not sure what you gain. I'd try one of those superhot warming trays first
Maintaining the clean appearance of a glass cooktop was difficult enough just wiping up grease splatters and cooked thru spills or boil overs; in fact one of the reasons it became the reviled range top in our family. Cooking directly on the range is going to make resulting cleaning even more challenged if you feel compelled to keep the top visually pristine.
re: ThanksVille
BTW..........I have had 2 glass top stoves......one in my condo and one at home. The one at the condo has the control OFF the surface. set into the counter. MUCH MUCH MUCH better for cleaning! I made the mistake at home of getting the super-gourmet version never thinking about the dials..BIG BIG BIG mistake!
I'm trying to figure out why you would do this....that's why they make saute pans and griddles -- so you have a flat cooking surface that can actually be washed.
Eric Ripert cooks almost exclusively on induction smooth tops, so if he was cooking on a smooth top induction unit, it would not be possible to cook directly on it because not even spinach has enough iron content to make induction work! For restaurants, "flat top" iron surfaced induction griddles are available and they're darned expensive for a private home.
BUT...! ER has all sorts of pull, so he may have been using one of these:
To the best of my knowledge, Rasonic products are not available in the U.S., but MAYBE you can order one from Hong Kong.
They are pricey! For the price of one of these puppies you can buy 47 Lodge double burner double sided grills that will do a great job! I'm just not sure they will fry ice cubes as attractively as the Rasonic! '-)
re: Caroline1
I'm in no doubt he was cooking directly on the glass surface, it was an episode of Avec Eric, not sure which one though. What he was using was pretty similar to that Rasonic cooktop in the video but it was built into his worksurface. It was just a question of curiosity about if there would be any advantage to this method of cooking besides just saving on washing up a pan.
re: unixrunner
Hi, unixrunner:
Thanks to our beloved Caroline, we know at least one company making this kind of glass griddle.
Frankly, I'm not sure what to make of this. Solid-tops are (after open hearth) humanity's oldest cooktops. But glass?
From the Rasonic video, we see that the unit has a 7-position control knob, but it is unclear if it is infinitely adjustable. It is also unclear how well the greasetrap and sides would handle a steady diet of oil and fat.
I would want to know these things, AND see under the black Ceran to judge the size and configuration of the heating element before buying. It might cook very evenly, and then again it might not. What we *do* know without looking is that glass is a terrible conductor of heat, and therefore the heat element is not getting any help toward evenness from the Ceran.
My biggest reservation about this thing would be marring or breaking the glass. At one point in the video, the "chef" bisects a steak, and it's obvious that he's avoiding bearing down with the knife. Ceran is hard, but IMO it would not hold up long to regular use of knives and metal turners. If you've ever watched a line cook working a commercial SS griddle, they absolutely *slam* the turners, and scrape the shit out of the surface. None of this would be possible with a Ceran surface, nor would cleaning the surface by screening.
Like the cheap, single-burner induction hotplates, I think this griddle would only be advisable for occasional buffet use where the portability trumps other factors. Even then, it's probably going to be a nightmare to clean. I'm calling it a novelty for now.
re: kaleokahu
This was a topic of discussion in one of the CH threads last year.
My wife and I previously owned a glasstop ( I think that is the current expression ) that had a " grill " area included. I admit that one of the selling features was the advert with two large prawns sizzling away very crimson, on the black glasstop. And I fell for it, at least that is what my wife now says. ( I swear she was with me at the check-out ).
The cooking reality is something else.
Certain foods splatter everywhere, especially fish, or meats with a little fat, which if one is using a pot or pan for is contained. Our large prawns and shrimp over-cooked. And as I found, one has to be surgically careful with cooking utensils, or go back and purchase the silicone coated spatula, and tongs. You take a real chance if just using the standard inox BBQ tools here.
After that " magical wonder " has worn off, comes the cold, hard reality of the clean-up. Sponge and hot soapy water over everything, including the control area, perhaps a mild abrasive used for granite to remove the marks, followed by cloth, then perhaps a window cleaner, and more cloth and paper towels. And despite these efforts, it seemed the odor remained.
I doubt if that sequence made the final cut for Eric Ripert.
So by experience, save your money, use a pot or pan, or to quote the Scout/Guide motto " Be prepared " ( to spend your time cleaning ).
re: kaleokahu
Oh, Kaleo! Such a doubting Thomas! '-) The glass top on this particular grill is made by the German glass maker, Schott Zweisel. I LOVE their stuff! They do great things with glass. They're the developers of titanium crystal (NO lead content!) that is super strong, seriously break resistant, and much lighter than lead crystal, which is a blessing to these old arthritic hands. These are very smart glass makers!
I've been using glass cook tops for decades now and not found them a problem. I've yet to break one, which doesn't mean it's not possible, or maybe I'm just not trying hard enough. I did have one once with knobs on the glass. Royal pain! Quickly replaced! Now I have smooth, knobless black glass inset into black granite and the whole area is soooooooooo easy to clean! And the great advantage of all that shiny black? If there's a speck of dirt on it, it screams, "Hey, look at me!" WIndex is my friend. My very good friend! And occasionally, a little Bar Keep's Friend and a moist paper towel. And a razor blade if I'm ever too careless, which is not impossible
It has never occurred to me to try to cook directly on my thermal glass cooktop, and it would be fruitless to try on an induction surface. No metal in the food to take advantage of the magnetic field!
For me, EVERY cooking surface has variables and kinks to get used to. For me, cooking means figuring out where the hot spots are and adjusting to them, because they're damn sure not going to adjust to me. It's just part of the job.
And yes! I would love to try cooking on a ceramic grill! And if I didn't like it, well, the cast iron grills are still in the cupboard! One man's novelty is another woman's godsend! I LOVE my cheap Max Burton induction cook top! Try one, Kiddo, you'll love it too! '-)
re: Caroline1
Hi, Car:
Schott makes all Ceran, it's their trademarked name. And there are 110 million Ceran cooktops out there.

Tummy tuck swelling in hips
- Annisa
- Michigan
- 4 years ago
I just had a tummy tuck less than 2 weeks ago and I love the results. My stomach looks beautiful, but I seem to be swelling mainly in my hips and upper thighs..is this common?
View 92 doctor answers to How Long Does Tummy Tuck Surgery Swelling Last?
Comments (4)
thankfully the swelling is almost all gone now..I am sure yours will be gone soon as well
I'm having the same issue. Having problems slipping pre-surgery clothes over hips 6 weeks post-op. My Dr. Does not think I'm swollen. Unfortunally, my clothes fit better pre tummy tuck. Very strange.
I have heard a few other women say the same thing. Did you also have lipo? Could it be that your hips and thighs just look larger to you now that your tummy is flat? I have heard of this happening before, but am not clear on how it has resolved in the few cases I've known of. You might want to check out Natalie's story. She had a similar issue.
no lipo..I was pretty thin to begin with, this was just to get rid of stretch marks from pregnancy. There is definitely a difference in the size because my bigger pants are tight in the hips and thighs

Looking for beetroot salad recipes? We have many variations - roasted beetroot salad, pumpkin and beetroot salad, carrot beetroot salad - and many more.
This is a delightfully simple salad, yet so sophisticated and flavourful. I often have it for lunch, though it makes a lovely starter as well. Use the softest, freshest goat cheese you can find.
Recipe by: Diana
This is a lovely, colourful salad and a great way to get your veggies. Watch this recipe being made in the Allrecipes Warm Roasted Root Vegetable Salad Video.

A lovely colourful side dish that is simple to make. Instead of using tinned you can buy fresh beetroot and green beans and boil or steam until tender.
