S&P 500, you're such a tease.
On the brink of a new record, the large-cap index trailed off on Friday, ending the session about five points short of its all-time closing high. Traders are looking at the S&P 500 to confirm what the Dow told us two weeks ago–this is a sustainable bull market, and no political mutterings out of the U.S., China or Europe are going to get in the way.
Nonetheless, the Dow set new closing records of its own this week, and notched its tenth consecutive day in the black on Thursday, before petering out on Friday. It was the longest winning streak since 1996. Fourteen straight days would have matched a record, one that Dan McMahon, director of equity trading at Raymond James, likened to Joe Dimaggio's famous 56-hitting game hitting streak. "I never really thought it had a chance," he said, with the benefit of hindsight.
Weak U.S. data spurred Friday's sell-off. In particular, consumer sentiment fell unexpectedly in March as payroll taxes rose and gas prices ticked higher. The consumer price index rose 0.7% in February, more than economists had expected. It was up 2% year-over-year, in line with the Fed's stated target, but higher than January's 1.6% rate. John Ryding of RDQ Economics called it "hardly a scary inflation report." Still, he said in a note that it also shows the Fed is "too worried about disinflation."
"Across major categories of spending, the only one to show a decline in prices over the last three months was autos (and even here prices are up 3.3% over the last year)," says Ryding.
The Dow rose 0.8%, or 117 points, last week to close at 14,514.11. The S&P 500 rose 0.6%, or 9.5 points, to close at 1560.70. The Nasdaq rose 0.1%, or 4.7 points, to close at 3249.07.
"There's nothing to stop it from going higher," says McMahon. "We're in the middle of a period when there's not a lot of data coming out."
But what about the Fed's statement next week on interest rates? "Yawn," he says.
The next important catalyst will likely be first-quarter earnings results, he says.
"There's no reason for the market to leap higher, but absent a catalyst markets tend to drift higher. I've heard the phrase 'secular bull market' more times in the last three days than I have in four years," McMahon adds.
Using the term "secular" bull market is a fancy way of saying there's a long-term shift in sentiment that could last for years (take that, Joe Dimaggio).
FINANCIAL STOCKS WERE in the spotlight Friday after the Fed released details late Thursday of its stress tests, giving most banks the go-ahead to buy back shares and boost dividends.

Much of the recent rally has been on low trading volume, calling into question its staying power. The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) has also been extremely quiet, trading near six-year lows.
Investors, however, flooded back into the market at the end of the week. Trading surged on Friday to a new high for the year, with NYSE composite volume hitting 4.9 billion shares. On an average day this year, about 3.5 billion shares change hands. Finally, investors appeared to be showing some conviction–it was just in the wrong direction.
THE SIGNS OF INFLATION that appeared on Friday remind us that the Fed's money-printing days will eventually end. Some investors are getting prepared.
Buying gold and the ETFs that track the commodity is one way to hedge against higher inflation. But investors might want to look at gold miners instead. The sector is trading at its lowest level relative to the price of gold in 25 years, says David Dietze, chief investment strategist at Point View Wealth Management. Dietze's measurement is based on the value of the companies' proven reserves as compared to their stock market values.
The miners bungled their chance to profit from the metal's astonishing rise, trailing gold by almost 60% in the past four years. They've continued to underperform as gold has declined.

Executives at mining companies overspent during the boom, chasing reserves that didn't pan out. To pay the bills, they diluted their stocks, issuing new shares to spend on new mining projects, observes Samuel Lee at Morningstar.
In the past year, a number of companies have fired their CEOs. And with the capital markets unwilling to support expensive projects with uncertain payoffs, the miners are focusing on returning capital to shareholders. "They're shutting down mines reducing their capital expenditures," says Dietze.
CEOs appear to be getting the message, adds Dan Denbow, manager of USAA's Precious Metals and Minerals Fund. "There's a shortage of capital. They now have to live within their means."
The big mining companies are lifting their dividends, and plan to continue doing so. Denbow says the strategy reminds him of what the big South African mining companies used to do, paying out large dividends. A gold stock with a dividend "is just like an interest-bearing gold deposit," he says.
Denbow likes Goldcorp (GG), a Canadian miner with a $26 billion market value. The stock is down 31% in the past year and trades at less than 15 times forward earnings, versus its five-year average of 28 times.
Goldcorp should see its cash flows rise as projects come on line and its capex budget falls. In January, the company announced the start of commercial production at the Pueblo Viejo mine in the Dominican Republic, which it owns along with Barrick Gold (ABX). The companies had spent $3.7 billion to construct the mine. Goldcorp also has become more transparent in the past few months, reporting "all-in" costs to pull the metal from the earth.
Goldcorp's dividend yield is now at about 1.8%, but Denbow sees it rising steadily in the next few years.

Shares jumped 21% in January, a move, incidentally, that came in the wake of Barron's year-end endorsement of the stock ("The End of Cash?," Dec. 31, 2012). VeriFone, we said, was one way for investors to play the ongoing shift from cash to electronic payments.
Our bluster was short lived. On Feb. 20, VeriFone (ticker: PAY) slashed its fiscal first-quarter earnings guidance by a third and warned of on-going shortfalls for the year. The stock tumbled 40% in one day, to as low as $18. Two weeks later, during its formal earnings call, CEO Douglas Bergeron offered a surprisingly frank mea culpa: "In retrospect, this can only be attributed to failed planning and execution," he said.
Bergeron conceded that the longtime leader in hardware terminals had suffered by trying to shift its model toward software and services, a higher-margin business. Management promised it had identified the problems and would no longer overlook the very hardware that had made the company dominant in so many countries. The execution challenges, Bergeron promised, "can be solved in months, not years."
One of those solutions, it turns out, was to boot the CEO. Last week Bergeron was fired, with VeriFone Chairman Richard McGinn taking over until a replacement can be found. A new chief financial officer has already improved disclosure and guidance practices, according to John T. Williams, who covers the stock for UBS. Some soul-searching, along with new leadership, is likely to be good for the company and the stock.
VeriFone shares have already rebounded to $20.80, from the Feb. 21 low; they could move up another 20% over the next 12 months.
Williams was surprised by management's missteps. In a recent note, he says that investors are likely to remain skeptical, and expectations are low. As such, he's using a multiple of just 11 times his revised estimate for next year's earnings to arrive at a price target of $25. (Verifone is expected to earn $226 million, or $2.32 a share, on revenue of $1.93 billion; that's down from $3.75 a share two months ago.) Peers trade closer to 16 times.
All of the trends we identified in December are still in place. Cash still dominates global transactions, but it's slowly giving way.

Patriots focus on Jets' special teams
By Mike Reiss
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Veteran linebacker Tracy White, who leads the Patriots with 13 special teams tackles, said that Monday's game against the Jets is one of the biggest challenges of the year from a special teams perspective.
"They are very aggressive and very smart. They kind of remind me of us a little bit, it's a big part of their game," he said. "They are very dangerous, one of the best special teams I've seen in the league this year."
White listed three of the key players that make the Jets' special teams go:
1. Brad Smith --
Fifth-year receiver averages 29.2 yards per kickoff return and has an 89-yard return for a TD.
2. Eric Smith
-- Fifth-year safety has 13 special teams tackles and blocked a punt against Miami on Sept. 27.
3. James Ihedigbo
-- Former UMass safety is second on the club with 22 special teams tackles.
As for the Patriots' special teams performance, White said areas that need to be tightened up include kickoff return, kickoff coverage and punt protection.
"It's mainly being consistent and players staying disciplined," he said.

Time to get your flu shot
Original post made by Good neighbor, another community, on Oct 4, 2006
This information is from Peter Bauer of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in San Francisco:
Getting the flu shot each year is the single best way to protect yourself and the ones you love from influenza and its complications.
If you have Medicare, a flu shot is one of the many preventive benefits you receive.
Get your flu shot as early as October or anytime through January or February.

Where is there information about pressure washing cars?
Information about pressure washing vehicles is available from: Pressure Wash/Power Wash Discharges: http://www.epa.gov/earth1r6/6en/w/pw.htm, which notes:
"EPA recommends that companies or individuals take their vehicles to car washes*. If a car wash is not available, NPDES permit requirements may be avoided and impacts on waters of the United States minimized if vehicles are washed in a vegetated or grassy area where the wash water will be absorbed into the ground instead of allowing it to run into the street and then into a storm drain. There may be additional requirements if chemicals (detergents, waxes, etc.) are improperly used or if the absorbed water will reach an underground water body.
*A properly operated car wash discharges all of its wash water to a municipal sanitary sewer system that treats the wastewater before discharging from the wastewater treatment plant to waters of the U.S. Most municipalities have a pretreatment program requiring car washes to perform some type of pretreatment such as discharging through a sand filter and grease trap."
You can also view: Managing Vehicle Washing to Prevent Contamination of Drinking Water: http://www.epa.gov/safewater/sourcewater/pubs/fs_swpp_vehicle.pdf, which notes: "Vehicle wash water can carry sediment and contaminants to surface waters, and can contaminate groundwater by infiltration or by drainage to subsurface wells and/or septic systems."
For information about wastewater permits, contact the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permitting program at http://water.epa.gov/polwaste/npdes/NPDES-Contacts.cfm.

About three months ago Desmond Tessemaker hit up Tom Lammerse about doing a short video project which included a hidden full pipe in Amsterdam. Desmond knew this was a once in a lifetime opportunity so he brought Tom as a filmer and photographer Syo van Vliet when they decided to go for it. They nearly got arrested by the police but it was all worth it since the end result is amazing. Check out the full interview, pictures shot by Syo and the behind the scenes movie below.
Today we are really excited to drop this 6+ minute long video from our Annual Orange Juice x Vans trip to Copenhagen, Denmark on Digbmx.com. The whole crew seriously went in even though the weather wasn't on our side! Don't waste your time had hit that play button!
Every single year the amount of riders at the Orange Juice Street Jam is getting bigger. We started with 115 riders in 2012 but this year 208 riders joined the Street session in Amsterdam! The weather was perfect, the vibes were great, the tricks even better and the police didn't bother us. Big shout out to all the riders who came out to The Dam and a big thanks goes to our partners in crime Vans and Soulcycle bmx shop.
Both the Orange Juice blog and brand are purely focused on quality instead of quantity. With our new Summer'15 collection we are really excited to announce the release of our very own Orange Juice tees.
We are very proud to release our first 'Orange Juice Presents' video in collaboration with Vans. We drove to the 040 bmxpark in Eindhoven and had two private sessions with Dutch Vans rider Tom van den Bogaard. He is an amazing rider, whether it's huge clicked lookbacks or front flip no handers, Tom handles everything with style.
Shout out to: Vans and 040 BMX Park for making this project possible.

No matter the sport, when a player enters a contract year you can almost always count on increased production. With Napoli, it was the opposite. "The Year of the Napoli," as Tampa Bay manager Joe Maddon called it, was 2011, not last season. That made it easier for the Rangers to allow Napoli to walk away this offseason. On Monday, Napoli agreed to a three-year, 39 million deal with the Red Sox. Really, it was the second half of 2011 when Napoli exploded.

"The Arc of the Moral Universe, From Memphis to Wall Street" By Amy Goodman
The national memorial to Martin Luther King Jr. was dedicated last Sunday. President Barack Obama said of Dr. King, "If he were alive today, I believe he would remind us that the unemployed worker can rightly challenge the excesses of Wall Street without demonizing all who work there." The dedication occurred amidst the increasingly popular and increasingly global Occupy Wall Street movement. What Obama left unsaid is that King, were he alive, would most likely be protesting Obama administration policies.

- 1 whole bone-in pork shoulder roast
- 1 piece fresh ginger
- 3 clove garlic
- 2 strip fresh orange peel
- 1 stick cinnamon
- 1 whole star anise
- ¼ tsp. crushed red pepper
- ½ c. packed brown sugar
- ¼ c. dry sherry or water
- ⅓ c. soy sauce
- ⅓ c. seasoned rice vinegar
- cornstarch
- Heat 8-quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat until hot. Add pork and cook until browned on all sides, about 15 minutes. Transfer pork to plate.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add ginger slices, garlic, orange peel, cinnamon stick, star anise, and crushed red pepper, and cook 5 minutes, stirring. Add 1/2 cup brown sugar and cook 10 minutes longer, stirring frequently. Add sherry or water, stirring to loosen brown bits; cook 2 minutes.

New York State Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul and Congresswoman Nita Lowey host Sexual Assault on College Campus Roundtable Discussion at Pace University
PLEASANTVILLE, NY – Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul and Congresswoman Nita Lowey appeared today at Pace University's Westchester campus to take part in a roundtable discussion about combatting sexual assault on college campuses.
The Lieutenant Governor is on a statewide tour which focuses on the Governor's proposed "Enough is Enough" legislation introduced in March. Lt. Governor Hochul was joined by Pace University's Interim Dean for Students, Rachel Carpenter, Student Government Association President and Junior Daniel Garcia, Pace Chronicle Editor and Senior Emily Wolfrum, Residence Hall Director and Graduate Student Tiffany Bermudez, and Pace University Title IX Coordinator/Affirmative Action Officer Lisa Miles.
"I am here today to tell survivors of sexual assault, you are not alone. No student should have to fear sexual assault on campus," stated Congresswoman Nita Lowey. I look forward to hearing from the students and administrators here at Pace so we can discuss not only how to make our colleges and universities a safe place for learning, but also how New York can be a national model."
Pace University has been addressing the issue of sexual assault on college campuses by assessing definitions, updating its campus-wide Sex-Based Policy and Procedure, reviewing response protocols, and developing resources to promote awareness about sexual assault prevention and the range of support services available to victims of sexual assault and other crimes.
"Pace University has become a true leader on this issue when other colleges around the State are reluctant to talk," stated Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul.
"This is an important conversation that must take place on all college campuses nationwide," stated Pace Interim Dean for Students and Assistant Dean for Assessment and Planning Rachel Carpenter. "It is something that, as a student affairs professional, absolutely depends on the input of diverse campus teams, especially our students."
"As President of the student body I believe it's important that we remain united on this issue," stated Daniel Garcia, Student Government Association President. "It doesn't just affect the victim and the aggressor, it effects the whole Pace community.
Pace's efforts include the development of an updated campus-wide sexual assault policy; agreement on a revised definition of consent; launch of a sexual assault resources website; and the creation and distribution of a Guide to Options, Resources, and Support.

Pace University's Center For Literacy Enrichment Named For Director and Founder, Sister St. John Delany
Pace University's Center For Literacy Enrichment Named For Director And Founder, Sister St. John Delany
Pace University's School of Education honored the director and founder of its Center for Literacy Enrichment, Sister St. John Delany, in a ceremony today at which the Center was officially renamed, in her honor, The Delany Center for Educational Enrichment.
White Plains Mayor Tom Roach attended the ceremony, as did the Westchester Deputy County Executive Kevin Plunkett. Roach had declared October 24, 2013 to be "Sister St. John Delany Day" at a ceremony at the Center for Literacy Enrichment in 2013.
"Sister St. John has been an inspiration to generations of students in White Plains," said White Plains Mayor Tom Roach. "Her tireless dedication and seemingly boundless energy has helped steer so many students toward success. She has truly made a lasting impact on this city and its residents."
Sister St. John taught first grade in White Plains from 1941 to 1972 before founding the Center for Literacy Enrichment and becoming an Associate Professor in the School of Education at Pace University. Sister's former students include U.S. Poet Laureate (2004-2006) Billy Collins, NFL great Robert "Bob" Hyland and Pat Casey, editor of the White Plains Examiner.
Years before commercial tutoring centers became the norm, Pace University's Center for Literacy Enrichment was established offering affordable literacy instruction to students of all ages. The Center is celebrating its 43rd anniversary with a dinner this evening at the Westchester Hills Golf Club. It will be the First Annual Delany Literacy Award Dinner and will recognize Neil Waldman, an author and illustrator of children's books and a White Plains resident as well as Iris Pagan, PhD, a Pace graduate and the Director of the Westchester County Youth Bureau.
"We encourage students in their efforts with their studies," said Sister at the ceremony. "We tell the students, 'You can do it. You can do better' … and they do."
The Center for Literacy Enrichment, part of the School of Education at Pace, is housed on Pace University's Law School campus in White Plains. The Center is staffed by trained literacy tutors, many of whom are enrolled in the Masters in Literacy Program at Pace. The Center serves a broad range of students from diverse socio-economic and cultural backgrounds. Instruction to improve reading skills is provided in small groups or private sessions to K-12 students – both U.S. and foreign-born. The Center takes a skills-based approach with an emphasis on literature.

Westchester County Business Journal: "Pace University opens renovated student center"
Westchester County Business Journal: "Pace University opens renovated student center"
Danielle Brody, from the Westchester County Business Journal, reported on the opening of Pace's renovated Kessel Student Center.
From the Westchester County Business Journal:
"Pace University on Thursday opened the doors of its renovated Jeanette and Morris Kessel Student Center on its Pleasantville campus. The student center is one phase of the school's $120 million development project.
The school plans to sell its 35-acre Briarcliff Manor campus, which houses nearly 600 students that are bused to the main campus, and consolidate all school functions in Pleasantville. William McGrath, senior vice president and chief operating officer for the Westchester campuses, said the new development will welcome Briarcliff students and accommodate the school's growth. He said the transformed center is increasing social activity and bringing students together to work in groups.
"It is the central part of campus, the heart of the campus," McGrath said.
Global firm EYP Architecture and Engineering designed the 9,500-square-foot addition to the 57,000-square-foot building, which also has an updated facade. The building addition includes new student lounges – one with a piano, a larger dining area with expanded options, a multipurpose room, student government offices, a dean's suite and more open seating areas. The building overlooks Choate Pond, which was environmentally restored and improved with landscaping.
More construction is underway to add buildings and make the campus more pedestrian-friendly with green spaces. One new residence hall is set to open in time for the fall semester and the other in fall 2016, McGrath said. The school is also renovating the athletic fields, which are expected to be finished by September. A new environmental center is slated to open in the fall.
President Stephen Friedman said the student center is the start of a new chapter for Pace and will pay substantial dividends for the school financially and for students' success and satisfaction. He said after Pace's Manhattan campus renovated the Michael Schimmel Center for the Arts, applications to the performing arts program burgeoned.
"When we invest in ourselves, we are investing in this university," he said. "The university grows and thrives." "

From The Journal News:
The chief operating officer of CBS Corporation will donate $2 million to Pace University for a new field house.
The gift by Joseph Ianniello, a trustee of the university, was announced Monday. The Ianniello Field House on the Pleasantville campus will be the gateway to the outdoor athletic complex and will have space for practice and conditioning. It will be just over 14,000 square feet.
"Pace University provides high-quality education with a strong focus on the kind of experiential learning that is invaluable in today's business world and I am honored to be able to give back to my alma mater in this way," Ianniello said in a statement.
Ianniello earned a Bachelor's of Business Administration at Pace and was a member of the university's football team and the Alpha Chi Epsilon fraternity on campus.
The new fieldhouse is part of the Campaign for Pleasantville, which aims to revitalize the 200-acre campus with new facilities including new residential buildings, an expanded student center and a new environmental center.

When you have livestock, there are so many items that you need just to care for them. They need proper food and feeding equipment. When they are sick, they need the proper medicine. Even when they aren't sick, you need to provide preventative medicine. Animals also need proper housing. There is just so much to think about. That is why our livestock category is so comprehensive.
Let's say you have rabbits. You will need the proper style cage, a drop pan to put at the bottom and bedding so your rabbits are safely housed. The last thing you want is a loose rabbit. There is too much danger out there for them to be running free. You'll also need the proper supplies to feed them, like hay and pellet food.
What if rabbits aren't your thing? How about if you are more into bees? Well, we can help you with that, too. We have frames and boxes. There are also entrance reducers and queen excluders, if you need them.
It really doesn't matter what type of livestock you have, from bees and rabbits to cows and chickens and even dogs and potbellied pigs, we have something for them all. This category offers a range of items that you will need to properly care for any animal you have.

DALLAS, Aug. 7, 2014 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Global & USA Cancer Biomarker Market to 2018 (Identification, Technologies, Market Analysis, Competitor Profiles, Companion Diagnostic Co-development, Business Strategies, Industry Trends, and Pipeline Analysis) is a comprehensive report on the cancer biomarker industry and its impact on the health system. This report tackles the growing market interest in oncogenic biomarkers, personalized medicine, companion diagnostics and the associated market environment.

Cancer biomarkers are molecular or genetic moieties (e.g., cells, proteins/peptides, genetic mutations, gene products, enzymes, or hormones) that not only are readily identifiable, but easily quantified in the lab setting. They function primarily to identify or correlate significantly with the severity or occurrence of a certain disease state. The rise in number of oncogenic biomarkers over the last number of years has massive potential in the healthcare industry and serves to propel both the personalized medicine and companion diagnostic markets.
One of the most import aspects of biomarkers is their use to diagnose and assess the progress of disease states in patients. As quantitative markers, these agents also offer the ability to monitor response to certain drug treatments and so are important in the area of personalized medicine.
Individualized, targeted or personalized medicine aims to increase the efficacy of therapeutics via genetic testing and companion diagnostics. Personalized ther

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP)—Peyton Manning asked his coaches at halftime if they had any suggestions for him. All he got was, "You haven't thrown any incompletions. Just try to keep doing what you're doing."
Great tip.
Manning was nearly perfect all night, exactly what the Indianapolis Colts needed to overcome whatever emotion the Jacksonville Jaguars got from Richard Collier's return.
Manning completed his first 17 passes, picked apart Jacksonville's secondary and led the Colts to their eighth consecutive win and seventh straight playoff berth. He finished 29-for-34 and threw for 364 yards and three touchdowns, and the Colts secured the No. 5 seed in the AFC playoffs with a 31-24 victory over the Jaguars on Thursday night.
"Peyton Manning is unbelievable," coach Tony Dungy said. "He put a lot of it on his shoulders and kept us in it. He played unbelievably under the circumstances.
"All in all, with everything that was riding on it … it was a great performance. It was an MVP performance for sure."
Manning led the Colts back from deficits of 14-0 and 24-14, and Adam Vinatieri's 45-yard field goal tied the game at 24-all late in the fourth.
Indianapolis (11-4) took the lead for good when Keiwan Ratliff intercepted a pass from David Garrard and returned it 35 yards for a touchdown with 4:48 remaining.
"One of those plays I was in the right place at the right time," Ratliff said. "He threw the ball and I just caught it and tried to get to the end zone."
The Jaguars had two chances to tie it, but both drives ended with sacks. Garrard drove Jacksonville to the 7-yard line with 29 seconds remaining, but Maurice Jones-Drew sprained his knee on a reception, and since the Jaguars had no timeouts, there was a 10-second runoff.
Garrard misfired on first down, then got sacked by Dwight Freeney to end the game.
"Just can't take a sack right there," Garrard said. "I really didn't see it and have an opportunity to elude that guy. I thought I had guys coming open."
The Colts won without receiver Marvin Harrison (hamstring), running back Joseph Addai (shoulder) and linebacker Gary Brackett (leg). Dungy said the victory would allow him to rest many starters next week against Tennessee, giving some players as many as 17 days of rest before opening the postseason.
The Jaguars (5-10) lost for the seventh time in the past nine games and fell to 2-6 at home this season. This one may have been more emotionally draining than any of the others.
Collier, a 6-foot-7 offensive linemen paralyzed from the waist down following a shooting in early September, returned to the field for the first time and was recognized during pregame ceremonies. He drove onto the field, sat next to his teammates during the national anthem and then headed to midfield as an honorary team captain for the coin toss.
He answered a few questions afterward, then went to a luxury suite with family members to watch the game. He must have liked Jacksonville's fast start. The Jaguars scored touchdowns on their first two possessions and led 14-0 early in the second quarter.
Manning spoiled it for Jacksonville. He hurt the Jaguars on nearly every drive, spreading the ball around and throwing pinpoint passes all over the field.
"It's a funny game," Manning said. "We were completing some passes, but we were down 14-0. That dominated our thoughts. We knew it would be tough, but we didn't think we'd be down 14-0 out of the gate."
Dallas Clark finished with eight catches for 105 yards and a touchdown. Reggie Wayne had seven receptions for 108 yards and a score. Dominic Rhodes, held to 27 yards rushing, was much more dangerous out of the backfield. He caught six passes for 62 yards and a touchdown.
Manning completed his final six passes last week against Detroit and his first 17 against Jacksonville, giving him 23 in a row—the second-longest streak in NFL history. Donovan McNabb set the record of 24 straight in 2004.
"The best thing we did tonight, which was a point of interest, was to finish touchdowns in the red zone," Manning said. "We got touchdowns and didn't have to settle for too many field goals."
Garrard wasn't nearly as accurate, especially in the second half.
He finished 28-for-41 for 329 yards and a score. He added a rushing touchdown. Jones-Drew ran 20 times for 91 yards and caught seven passes for 71 yards.
Dennis Northcutt, starting for the second straight week in place of Jerry Porter (groin) and Matt Jones (suspension), has another strong game. He caught eight passes for 101 yards and a touchdown—his second consecutive 100-yard game after going nearly four years without one.
It wasn't enough, especially against Manning and the Colts.
"Peyton Manning is a good quarterback," Jaguars safety Reggie Nelson said. "He has always been good. That's what he does."
Vinatieri missed a 30-yard field goal in the first half. … Jaguars LB Mike Peterson, who probably played his last game in Jacksonville, kissed the field during pregame introductions. … Tight ends for both teams combined to catch 22 passes for 270 yards and one score.

Does anyone here have experience with the "report a litter bug" thing?
Great news!!!! I still don't think it is enough. That is the one thing I hate, going through Oklahoma and seeing trash all over the place. Quite frankly, I think the fine should be increased to $800 dollars on the first offense and much, much higher the second time around. I also get fustrated when I see trash flying out of the back of a pickup truck or a garbage truck like it is nobody else's business.
Here is the article. Oklahoma Senate Panel Approves Littering Fine Hike - News9.com - Oklahoma City, OK - News, Weather, Video and Sports |
Does anyone here have experience with the "report a litter bug" thing?
$800 is a lot of money to some folks. While you or I might be able to put $800 on a credit card and really think nothing of it, that's the kind of money that can end up making folks have to choose between rent and a bench warrant/additional $185 failure to appear + court costs..and if they're actually picked up on that warrant and can't make bail, you're potentially talking about being evicted/losing everything/losing their job, etc.
For some folks, once they're in the system, even if it's just for something piddly like littering, it's tough to get out.
I'd prefer to see a smaller fine (smaller even than the 200 level that is being doubled) plus a mandatory community service component ... preferably involving trash pickup for any one able bodied, and something appropriate for those who are not able.
I suppose the $800 the first time around is a little high. Littering just seems to be a pretty big problem in OKC. I don't think anyone should be issued a warrant and go to jail for not paying. They could be given time, a lot of it, to pay it off and do community service as an alternative and pay less, like Kevin said. That seems good.
That ain't how muni court works. And every continuance you get costs.
I agree with Kevin with one exception..... Anyone caught tossing a lit cigarette should face capital punishment charges.... Is that to harsh? I mean they're speeding up their impending death by smoking anyway. So why not help them along?
But seriously I think the public service would be a better investment than the higher fine. Make them work the $800 fine off at Minimum Wage or at least make that an option for the person that can't afford the fine.
Bottom line, you're talking about the fine for a DUI in many cases being less than littering. Lunacy.
Thanks. That's the simple solution to every crime.
My goodness, you've cured society's ills.
It is not uncommon for a first time dui to see a fine of less than 200. Now there are all sorts of other expenses which exist, and the court costs, but the fine itself is not the lion share of the expense for the person who incurs a dui charge.
To me an 800 fine on littering screams out "we give up, but hey, might as well make some money in our defeat."
I don't object to a small fine, and a lot of community service. Sid, your 8 hour idea is way way kinder than where I would land, by a factor of 5 to 10. You want to change behavior? To me that requires hours of effort. I have no issue with 40+ hours, and if it needs to happen at 2-4 hours a Sat. or Sun. for several weeks so the trasher can still work, that's fine as well. Parks need cleaning, roads need cleaning, Habitat needs help, second chance and such need floors mopped, and once or twice isn't enough to make the impact.
I agree the fines do not stop littering. But from my perspective that's mostly because the laws are neither respected nor enforced.
I am speaking generally of people who throw out a couple of old toilets, 6 or 12 old tires, various other pieces of junk and trash and pickup loads of sheetrock and other construction debris.
They throw the stuff in the bar ditch.
My point is that the City has no problem fining the property owner versus the interesting notion that the perpetrator can't afford the fine. Lot of property owners can't afford the fine either.
Now, to be fair, I will say the City did remove a burned out vehicle from the roadway. So I suppose that is something
I'll definitely back Sid up, he has definitely done his fair share to help with the litter issue in OKC.
As far as fines go, they aren't nearly as effective as education. No one seems to understand that if we could just keep the trash in our cars for a couple of more miles and throw it away at home, we could save the state (this includes money spent by towns/cities) upwards of $24 million annually. More and more communities are starting to be proactive and not only provide better trash collection, but also certain times when residents can come and dispose of tires, electronics, etc. But, we have a long way to go.
The fines that are collected, to my knowledge, don't go back into litter prevention programs. The money is just dumped into city coffers and then spent on other issues. And that's assuming that a police officer is going to take the time to issue a citation....they usually have fare more pressing issues to attended to (that's just the sad truth).
Cigarette litter is by far one of the largest offenders and one that will hopefully be reduced by some programs that are in the works. Litter is a problem in Oklahoma. But I can tell you that there is a lot of attention being focused on the K-12 age range. The thought is that if we can alter their perception on litter, they will in turn cause a positive change at home.
One way to reduce litter is to keep places clean - litter attracts more litter. This spring there are going to be cleanups all over OKC and the state. Get out there and be proactive.
The City fines the property owners even though the trash is own City right of way, obviously does not belong to the property owner, and was placed there illegally which the City does nothing to discourage or prevent.

A team of intrepid adventurers travels through the outer reaches of the galaxy, each week finding excitement and adventure on Galaxy Quest! Or at least that's the way it was in the mid-1970s, when brave if reckless Captain Peter Quincy Taggart, lovely Lieutenant Tawny Madison, and inscrutable alien Dr. Lazarus were the leaders of an interstellar law enforcement team on the TV series of that name. Twenty years later, the show is still in reruns, and Jason Nesmith (Tim Allen), Gwen DeMarco (Sigourney Weaver), and Alexander Dane (Alan Rickman) prop up their sagging careers by making appearances at sci-fi conventions, where they grudgingly shake hands and give autographs for the show's socially inept following. However, it turns out that nerdy sci-fi fans aren't the only ones watching: somewhere in another solar system, a group of alien rebels living under a regime of violence and repression have picked up broadcasts of Galaxy Quest, and they aren't aware that it's fiction. They travel to Earth and encounter the Galaxy Quest cast, who figure that they're just another bunch of guys who like to dress funny. However, they soon realize that they're being hired not for another autograph-signing session but for a real-life outer space rescue mission. Galaxy Quest was directed by Dean Parisot, who had a background in TV directing before his theatrical debut with the dark comedy Home Fries.

General Comments
After upgrading from a Nokia 402 what a delight this Siemens SL42 mobile phone is. It has tons of features, good reception and is easy to use once you get the hang of the menu's. It has a large memory for storing useful info, also stopwatch and currency converter etc etc. Definitely worth having especially if you get it free with your talk plan!
