Tennessee Titans Tickets
It's been a seven-year stretch outside of the playoffs for the Tennessee Titans, but even losing seasons can bring rewards. In 2016, that reward is QB Marcus Mariota, the Heisman Trophy winner that led Oregon to three wildly-successful seasons. Tennessee also made it a point to add defensive presence, nabbing Brian Orakpo from Washington to team with Jurrell Casey in hopes of forming a truly formidable pass-rush combination. Picking up Perrish Cox from the Niners should bolster the Titans' stop unit even further, setting the stage for a big season. The time is right to secure your seats for regular season games at Nissan Stadium! Come out and see what the Tennessee Titans are all about in 2016—Razorgator's always your ticket in the door!

The Tennessee Titans added another loss to their record when they played the New England Patriots on December 20, bringing their record to 3-11. The Titans had a good second half, outscoring the Patriots 13-9. However, it was not enough to save them from the 21 deficit of the first half. Quarterback Marcus Mariota left in the first half due to a knee injury. Zach Mettenberger came in and completed 20 of 28 passes for a total of 242 yards that included two touchdowns. Delanie Walker had two touchdown passes. The regular season is winding down for the Titans, who have just two games left. You can still get tickets, with prices starting at $33.
12/18/15 - Even though the Tennessee Titans are considered one of the worst teams in the league this season, they are continuously making changes to better their team. This week, the Titans made a big move by picking up Damaris Johnson from the waiver after the New England Patriots dropped him. The wide receiver is joining a team that is full of young wide receivers and will hopefully make an impact with the Titans. To make this shift work accordingly, the Titans place Derrick Morgan on the injured reserve list. Get your tickets today to see Johnson and the other Titan players perform live. Their next game is on December 20 against the Patriots and tickets are still available to purchase.
12/11/15 - The Tennessee Titans broke their three game losing streak with a narrow win against the Jaguars on December 6. The win also broke the Titans' 11 game home losing streak. Marcus Mariota rushed for 112 yards, which was the first time a Titans player rushed for more than 100 yards since December 2013. Mariota also completed 20 of 29 passes for 268 yards and three touchdowns and had a rushing touchdown. The teams scored a combined six touchdowns during the final quarter alone, making for an exciting game for Titans fans. The team head to New York to play the Jets on December 13, and fans still have a chance to get tickets with prices starting at $25.
12/4/15 - The Tennessee Titans certainly had a tough time this year, but they have not given up yet. With a season record of 2-9, the Titans are looking to earn what small victories they can.

They will be continuing their home series by hosting the Jacksonville Jaguars on December 6th. Tickets are available starting as low as $19. After that, your last chance to catch the Titans in action will be on December 27th when they host the Houston Texans. Tickets for that final match are available starting at $21.
11/27/15 - The Tennessee Titans are nearly back on their own field. They had one home game in November, but it certainly feels like they have been on the road for the entire month. The Titans are sure to be anxious to return to their fans for the first substantial period of time in a while. They will be hosting the Oakland Raiders on November 29th, and they will be following this up with another home game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

11/20/15 - The Tennessee Titans have had a rough season, but they still have three remaining home games. They probably will not make it to the post season; however they can still play their best and give the fans something to cheer about. Starting on December 6th, the Titans are starting a set of two consecutive home matches, against the Oakland Raiders and the Jacksonville Jaguars. Tickets for these matches are available starting at $48 and just $18 respectively. With the season winding down, the Titans need your support now more than ever. Do not forget to come out and help cheer the Titans to their next victory down to the very last game.
11/13/15 - The Tennessee Titans are considered to be one of the worst teams in the NFL this season. They were on a six-game losing streak until they defeated the New Orleans Saints on November 8. The win didn't come easy for the Titans as the teams headed into overtime after four grueling quarters. Marcus Mariota, the Titans quarterback, had an outstanding game passing for 371 yards to complete a personal –best record. Included in the 371 yards, was his winning pass to Anthony Fasano in overtime. This ended the losing slump once and for all. See if they can keep up the good work when they storm the field against the Jacksonville Jaguars on November 19. Get your ticket today.
11/6/15 - Another injury puts the Tennessee Titans in a tricky position heading into Week 9. It was announced that wide receiver Kendall Wright will miss the Saints game this weekend due to a left knee sprain, suffered in the team's 20-6 loss at Houston. The announcement comes on the heels of Marcus Mariota being taken out of the lineup by a low hit from Olivier Vernon in Week 6, which has contributed to Tennessee's ugly 1-6 start. They'll try to find their way in New Orleans this weekend, and tickets for the Mercedes-Benz Superdome are on sale now! Limited seating remains for Titans vs. Saints, with prices starting at $37. Get yours while they last!
10/30/15 - The Tennessee Titans continue their losing streak, but unlike last week, they were incredibly close to taking a victory. With a final score of 10-7, the Titans just could not hold on to the lead they built up in the first half. From here, the Titans will be travelling to take on the Houston Texans and the New Orleans Saints in the following two weeks before returning to Tennessee on November 15th to host the Carolina Panthers. Tickets are already available starting at $50. Only four home games remain during the regular season this year, so be sure to come out and cheer the Titans to victory while you still can.
10/23/15 - The Tennessee Titans have not won a game since their opening game on September 13, and their most recent loss against the Miami Dolphins brings their record to 1-4. Miami dominated the Titans, who were only able to get 10 points to counter the Dolphins' 38. Marcus Mariota had two interceptions, and he experienced six sacks that led to his needing a knee brace and a replacement towards the end of the game. Mariota did complete 21 passes for a total of 219 yards and one touchdown. The Titans will be looking to turn things around when they host the Atlanta Falcons on October 25. You can still get tickets, with prices starting at $45.
10/16/15 - For the second time, the Titans played on their own field, and once again, they fell just barely short. Last week, the Titans lost by a slim two points against the Indianapolis Colts. On October 11th, they managed to outdo themselves and scored just one point less than the Buffalo Bills. While it is gut wrenching to see the Titans come so close, they have two more opportunities to score their second win this season before heading out on the road. Next up, they will host the Miami Dolphins on October 18th, followed by the Atlanta Falcons. Tickets are available for both games starting as low as $57 and $47.
10/8/15 - For the first time this year, the Tennessee Titans are playing on their own field. Unfortunately, things have been slow to start. The Titans just finished up their first home game against the Indiana Colts, and the final score was 35-33. Next, on October 11th, the Titans will be hosting the Buffalo Bills. Tickets are available starting at $46. After that match, there will still be two home games, against the Miami Dolphins and the Atlanta Falcons, before they have to hit the road. There are plenty of opportunities both for you to catch them in action and for the Tennessee Titans to practice up for their upcoming away games.
10/2/15 - Last Sunday was a sad day for Tennessee Titans fans. Up until the very last minutes of the game, it looked like the Titans would be able to pull out a victory against the struggling Indianapolis Colts. In exhilarating fashion, Colts quarterback Andrew Luck managed to march his team downfield and ultimately defeat the Titans 35 – 33. Although it was a much-needed victory for the Colts, it was an equally upsetting loss for Tennessee. They will look to get their season back on track next Sunday, October 11, when they face the hit-or-miss Buffalo Bills at home. Tickets start at $67 for what is expected to be an exciting matchup.
9/25/15 - The Tennessee Titans are currently sitting at second place in the AFC Southern Division after suffering a loss to the unlikely Cleveland Browns last weekend. The 14 – 28 defeat was a frustrating let down for Titans fans, as the team actually looked good in their opening game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers two weeks ago. The Titans were able to beat the Buccaneers in a remarkable 42 – 14 victory, which gave many fans the impression that this was the start of a new, formidable chapter for their team. The Titans will be looking to bounce back this week against the Indianapolis Colts, who have been struggling to get anything significant going offensively. Tickets to this week's home game against the Colts start at just $48.
9/17/15 - The marquee matchup between rookies Jameis Winston and Marcus Mariota was indeed an exciting one—but more so for the Tennessee Titans QB than his Tampa Bay counterpart. Mariota went off for four TDs in his NFL debut, racking up over 200 yards en route to a 42-14 Titans rout in Week 1. Kendall Wright caught for 101 yards himself, snaring four passes and getting into the endzone for a touchdown. It was indeed a favorable way to kick off the 2015 season for the Titans, who won't get their first home game until Week 3. Tickets are on sale now for Sept. 27th, when Tennessee will host Andrew Luck and the Colts at Nissan Stadium. Get your seats now and check out two of the NFL's top young QBs!
9/11/15 - At the start of the 2015-2016 NFL season, the Tennessee Titans are looking to showcase some new additions to the roster. Terrance West was traded to the team as of last weekend and has a lot to prove in his sophomore year of professional football. As a rookie with the Browns, he led the team with 673 yards and four touchdowns. Also joining the lineup are linebackers David Bass and Steve Johnson, who both came to Nashville ready to work hard and prove they were worth the trade. As Johnson recently stated, "I came here to contribute. I don't just want to sit around and collect a paycheck." The Titans will take on the Buccaneers this Sunday in Tampa Bay. Tennessee fans will have to wait until the end of the month for the team's first game at Nissan Stadium in Nashville.
9/1/15 - It could be a rough year ahead for the Tennessee Titans, although they'll be the first to tell you that the team is excited and ready for the upcoming 2015-2016 NFL regular season. ESPN recently announced its list of the 100 top players in the NFL, and not a single one of them was a player from Tennessee. Many were surprised that rookie starting quarterback Marcus Mariota didn't make the list, but it remains to be seen how well he will perform at the professional level. They'll have one more opportunity to practice before heading into regular season on Sunday, September 27. They will face the Minnesota Vikings at home on Thursday night for their final preseason matchup. Tickets to Thursday's game start at just $4.
8/28/15 - The Tennessee Titans are showing a bit of a softer side than the one we generally see on the football field. This week, the team announced that they would be partnering with Nissan to support wounded veterans. The Wounded Warrior Project is a nonprofit organization founded to help honor the service given by these brave men and women. At last weekend's match against the Rams, the charity was presented with an impressive $25,000 donation, and the giving will continue at each home game this season. At a time when the NFL seems to be getting a lot of negative attention, the kind gesture sure is refreshing! The Titans are gearing up and getting ready to take on the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday, Sept. 3, at Nissan Stadium in Nashville. Tickets can be purchased now for just $5 and up.
8/21/15 - The Tennessee Titans looked anything but solid at their preseason opener against the Atlanta Falcons on Friday night. The Titans went home empty handed, losing the game 31-24. Although things didn't go the way the Titans had hoped, the game wasn't a total disappointment. Rookie quarterback Marcus Mariota looked unsure of himself at first and gave the Titans a rocky start to the game. He started to look more confident in the back end of the game, leading several scoring drives to put the Titans back within striking distance. Unfortunately, they just couldn't pull it off. They are sure to be practicing hard for their next matchup against the St. Louis Rams this Sunday, so don't miss any of the action. Tickets start at $10.
8/7/15 - The Tennessee Titans are just a few short weeks away from facing the St. Louis Rams at home at Nissan Stadium for the 2015-2016 NFL preseason kickoff game, and they couldn't be more excited for their chance at redemption. After a terrible, injury-riddled 2 -14 season last year, the Titans are looking refreshed and ready to take the field this week at training camp. Their star rookie quarterback, Oregon's Marcus Mariota, is looking better than ever and did not throw a single interception at Monday's practice. He did, however, scare his fellow teammates when he ran into a scout on the sidelines after a scramble. Mariota was just fine and continued to have a successful practice after the incident. Get your tickets to the preseason opener tickets for as little as $5!
7/31/15 - The offseason is never long enough for NFL players, and many of them have spent it documenting their time away from the football field and sharing pictures and videos via social media. Fortunately for the Tennessee Titans, many of their players spent a lot of time working out, which will definitely give them a leg up as they begin training camp this week. Wide receivers Harry Douglas and Jacoby Ford and running back Dexter McCluster are all active via Twitter, and each have posted a number of videos of their workouts over the summer. Nashville's Nissan Stadium is gearing up to host the home opener for the Titans. The Aug. 23 game is scheduled for kickoff at 7:00PM against the St. Louis Rams. Tickets are available for purchase now and prices start at just $5 each.
7/17/15 - The Tennessee Titans have made headlines this week over the controversy in rookie, Marcus Mariota's, contract. The 2015 first-round draft pick still hasn't signed his contract with the Titans due to a small detail in the contract called "offset language." The Titans as an organization have the contract set up that way so they no longer have to pay out on Mariota if he gets let go before his four-year contract is up. Mariota wants the "offset" to be changed in case this does happen, which in turn could lead him to be paid by two separate teams if he signs with someone else. See who stands their ground and wins this touchy battle as the 2015 season begins. The Titans play their first game against the St. Louis Rams on August 23 and tickets start at $7 a piece.
7/3/15 - The Tennessee Titans made some huge changes in the 2014 season, including getting rid of their head coach, Mike Munchak. Instead they took on former Cardinals coach, Ken Whisenhunt, hoping for better than average results. Expectations were set high for the new head coach and unfortunately they were crushed with a 2-14 season finish. One of the biggest impacts of this terrible record was the loss of starting quarterback, Jake Locker. He missed nine games for the second season in a row and ended up retiring in March. Their backup QB, Zach Mettenberger, hit the field with everything he had, but it wasn't enough behind a weak offensive line and poor receivers. This year they just need their players to stay healthy and work hard. Watch the Titans start their 2015 season live in August.
6/19/15 - Already displaying his maturity and focus on preparation, incoming Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota is looking to get in some extra work with his receiving corps before the 2015 season kicks off. Receiver Hakeem Nicks affirmed the need for fine-tuning as the Titans look to snap a six-year playoff drought. "I do that every offseason," Nicks said of the additional practice work. "That's something I'm used to doing." Tennessee will hope that the tried and true approach leads to fresh new results for the benefit of a fan base hungry for wins following four losing seasons in the past five years. Preseason play at LP Field opens on August 23rd and tickets are on sale now! Snag seats at great prices, with upper level tickets going for just $6!
6/5/15 - The Tennessee Titans have added some new players to their ranks. They have recently agreed to terms with tight end Phillips Supernaw after having to waive defensive tackle Lucas Vincent. Supernaw has played with three other NFL teams, including Baltimore and Kansas City, where he split last season. They also agreed to terms with Dorial Green-Beckham, who was their second round pick in the NFL draft. With this contact they have now agreed to terms with seven of nine of their draft picks. One of the most exciting additions is Marcus Mariota, whose jersey the top-seller on NFLShop.com last month. The star recently admitted that he owes some of his skill to playing soccer as a child. Tickets for the 2015 season, which kicks off on August 14 for the Titans, are on sale, with prices starting at $2.
5/20/15 - Fans of the Tennessee Titans can stop stressing over the alleged quarterback competition the team is facing this season. News outlets report that after witnessing second overall draft pickup Marcus Mariota practice during the offseason, the team will most definitely use him as the starting quarterback at the season home opener on August 23 against the St. Louis Rams. Although he's just a rookie, Mariota seems to have brought fresh energy to the team and its fans alike. During practice he has proven his strength, agility, sharp arm, and general athleticism to crowds of skeptics. There is no word on what will become of fellow Titans' quarterback Zach Mettenberger, but the current starter continues to show up for practice and fully expects to be a key player this season.
5/6/15 - The Tennessee Titans are experiencing quite a bit of buzz as they prepare for the 2015-2016 NFL season. Although the team formerly said that they were more than ready to start with quarterback Zach Mettenberger, that didn't prevent them from scooping up a somewhat surprising draft pick this week. The team leveraged their second overall selection to snag Marcus Mariota, the red-hot quarterback fresh from the University of Oregon. Mariota brings many different strengths to the team, but there is some question about how the Titans will move forward with two capable quarterbacks, especially given their drastically different offensive backgrounds. Come see it all unfold when the Titans' 2015-2016 season kicks off on Sunday, August 23. They will face the St. Louis Rams at home.
4/24/15 - In 2014, the Tennessee Titans and Tampa Bay Bucs finished in a tie for the worst regular season record in the NFL. This year, one team will definitely start off on the right foot as the two teams face off to open the 2015 season. The Titans will play host for several of the NFL's top teams this year, including Andrew Luck and his Indianapolis Colts in Week 3, Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers in Week 10, and Week 16 brings a date with the Houston Texans who are expected to be further improved with the return of Jadeveon Clowney. You can secure your seats for these, plus plenty of other great games in the upcoming 2015 NFL season! Tickets are on sale now!
2014-2015 Season
12/18/14 - In a match of AFC South cellar dwellers, the Tennessee Titans took to the road Thursday night to Jacksonville. The Titans fell last weekend to the New York Jets, 16-11, in a battle which was described as one for draft position.
12/11/14 - The Tennessee Titans are in the midst of a seven-game losing streak, currently the longest in the league, as they prepare to take on another struggling team, the New York Jets, this weekend. The Titans fell to the other New York football team, the Giants, last weekend, 36-7.
12/4/14 - Since defeating Jacksonville in Week 6, the Tennessee Titans have dropped their last six games – and also had to call on their second-string quarterback midway through due to an injury to the starter. Zach Mettenberger left last weekend's game with a sprained shoulder after a sack by the Texans' J.J. Watt in the third quarter.
11/20/14 - It was a case of close, but not quite for the Tennessee Titans in their Monday night game with Pittsburgh. The Titans held a 24-13 lead as the fourth quarter started, but ended up allowing two touchdowns to the Steelers to eventually fall 27-24.

10/31/14 - Last Sunday, the Tennessee Titans suffered a devastating blowout against the Houston Texans. The final score ended up being 30-16, and they simply couldn't hang with the high volume scoring of the Texans.

Arian Foster ended up racking a total of 151 yards, scoring twice. They will need to adjust these defensive lapses going forward, especially toward the end of the season. Up next for them is a terrific match up against the Baltimore Ravens, which takes place Sunday November 9, 2014. The Ravens are currently first in the AFC North, so a win over them would be enormous for the Titans' confidence. It will come down to whether or not the Titans' defense steps up against Joe Flacco and their steady running attack. Tickets for the game are still available, and they start out at an affordable $61.

After the passing of owner Bud Adams, a new coaching staff was implemented and the most flaunted player on roster, Chris Johnson, was released in the offseason. With the close of minicamp, the Titans still have much on their plate coming into training camp, chiefly the change to a new 3-4 defense, a huge alteration from the same scheme utilized since the Oilers days.

Buy your Tennessee Titans tickets now and watch this squad rise to the occasion!
6/18/14 – The Tennessee Titans have implemented a new defensive system this offseason: the 3-4 scheme under Ray Horton, which figures strong DTs Mike Martin, Jurrell Casey, and now, former Penn State DT, DaQuan Jones. On offense, too, the Titans are getting riskier, using their star receiver Kendal Wright more creatively through practice—lining him up outside, running deeper, even throwing balls under center. This week's minicamp debuts potential Rookie of the Year recipient, Bishop Sankey—first running back drafted in 2014—after finishing up academic finals. Considering his standout numbers in the Combine, he is looked on to have immediate impact in place of Chris Johnson. Tons of optimism is brimming over LP Field, buy your Tennessee Titans tickets now and be there when the season starts!
6/10/14- The Tennessee Titans are among NFL teams with the most salary cap space at this point in the offseason. This will likely change soon, as first-round pick Taylor Lewan and second-round pick Bishop Sankey have yet to be signed. Also potentially impacting the Titans' $25 million in space is the Jurrell Casey situation. Tennessee does not intend to let the nose tackle go, especially after his breakout third season, and he is in the final year of his bargain rookie contract. Casey elicited 10.5 sacks last year and has since lost 15 pounds in hopes of becoming even faster. Get your Tennessee Titans tickets now and see if these deals get done before the squad storms the field in summer!
5/28/14 - Jake Locker is back in action! The quarterback ran the Tennessee Titans' offense for the first time since withstanding a season-ending foot injury during the team's first OTA practice of 2014. While the Titans selected Zack Mettenberger in the sixth round, Tennessee has explicitly stated the starting position is not under contention —so it's a good thing Locker returned to the field ahead of his scheduled recovery! Beneath the Indianapolis Colts, the AFC South is wide open and Ken Wisehunt believes their current QB can take them to the top of the division in his make-or-break year. Get in on all the action with 2014 Tennessee Titans tickets!
5/14/14 - The Titans may have surprised their fans a bit by selecting offensive tackle Taylor Lewan from Michigan with the #11 pick but they will likely need support on the O-line soon. But the most excitement comes from their 2nd round selection of Washington running back Bishop Sankey, who not only has one of the coolest names in the draft, but can do it all out of the backfield.
4/17/14- The Tennessee Titans will face quality NFC opponents in the 2014 preseason. They'll get things going at home against the Green Bay Packers in Week 1, before hitting the road to face the Saints in New Orleans during Week 2. The Titans will continue their trek with a visit to the Falcons in Atlanta, and close with a fourth and final exhibition match against the Minnesota Vikings (Aug 28). All of Tennessee's opponents were playoff teams within the last two years and will serve as great practice for the Nashville squad, especially for the two dueling cornerbacks (Coty Dedabaugh and Blidi Wreh-Wilson) after Alterraun Verner departed. See Jake Locker take a stand opposite some strong preseason quarterbacks with Tennessee Titans tickets!
The Tennessee Titans have one of the most affordable NFL tickets in the league averaging $167 on the secondary market. In fact, you can catch a game at LP Field for $19 against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday October 12; the AFC South showdown is the cheapest game in the league during the regular-season! And yes, Titans Nation – Tennessee will host a Monday Night game in Nashville. The Week 11 meeting with the Pittsburgh Steelers is one of the most expensive games on the Titans schedule, averaging $237 (the same cost to see the Dallas Cowboys at LP Field in Week 2).
Chris Johnson will make his return
December 14 when the New York Jets (avg. $170) visit Music City; the former Titans RB is the only player to reach 1,000 rushing yards in each of the last six seasons and you know he'll bring the heat in a familiar setting. The Titans will host the defending AFC Champion Colts to close the regular-season following a Thursday Night Game at Jacksonville 10 days earlier. In the big picture, the Tennessee Titans schedule features five games against 2013 playoff teams: Indy (2), Cincinnati, Kansas City, and Philly. With three of those games falling in the first four weeks of the season, it won't be long until we find out just how mighty this Tennessee team is!
2013-2014 Season
2/13/14 – Titans Chris Johnson underwent surgery to repair an alleged torn meniscus that he played through since Week 3. The three-time Pro Bowler rushed for 1,077 yards and six touchdowns this season but will likely hit the free agent market come Spring. With new head coach Ken Whisenhunt being the primary play-caller, is now the best time for Johnson and the Titans to split? The running back has spent his entire career with Tennessee, was an MVP candidate for the Titans, and is a former 2,000-yard rusher.
12/17/13 - The Tennessee Titans nearly took the wind out of the Arizona Cardinals' playoff sails, coming up just short in their 37-34 Sunday loss at LP Field. Ryan Fitzpatrick overcame a 17-point deficit and threw an impressive 402 yards for 4 touchdowns to Michael Preston, 17 of those points being scored with 3 minutes left on the clock. The Titans tied it up late in the fourth to force overtime, and despite the effort, Arizona scored a game-winning field goal to hand Tennessee their third straight loss. Tennessee Titans tickets are the cheapest of Week 16, just $39 on average and a next-to-nothing at $8 to get-in when they visit the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday.
12/10/13 - The Tennessee Titans put up a valiant effort on the road, but were shutdown by the unrelenting Denver Broncos, 28-51, at Mile High. The Titans came into the game with an impressive pass rush defense and held a slight lead at the half, but Manning and company pulled out all the stops after recess to clinch a playoff berth. Don't miss the Titans this week in their attempt to trip up the surging Arizona Cardinals and, with AFC playoff hopes hanging by a thread, it may be one of the last times you'll see HC Mike Munchak, who is reportedly coaching for his job at this point. Tennessee Titans tickets see the lowest get in price of Week 15, at just $5 to get into LP Field.
12/3/13 - The Tennessee Titans are in serious jeopardy of missing their postseason window with their recent defeat by AFC South foes, the Indianapolis Colts (14-22). Too little, too late: the NFL admitted to head coach Mike Munchak that officials blundered the calls on three plays during the course of the game, which could very well have affected the final outcome. Tennessee must now be victorious over Denver on Sunday, or their division run will be terminated. Don't miss this week's crucial AFC South matchup! Tennessee Titans tickets are one of the most in-demand of the bunch, starting at $55 and averaging $253 a seat.
11/25/13 - The Tennessee Titans beat the Oakland Raiders 23-19, and are making some noise in the wildcard race. Jake Locker's stand in, veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick, led the team in a game-winning drive for a last-second touchdown pass to Kendall Wright to seal a victory. The Titans are pitted against division leaders, the Indianapolis Colts, next Sunday with hopes of knocking them out of the top spot. Tennessee Titans tickets are $100 on average for their rematch against Andrew Luck and company.
11/19/13- The Tennessee Titans lost yet another division game this season, making their record 0-3 against AFC South foes. The Titans fell to the Indianapolis Colts Thursday night in Nashville (30-27), despite leading in the first half. Ryan Fitzpatrick did not turnover the ball once, while Chris Johnson had 2 touchdowns and 86 yards on 17 carries, but it wasn't enough to hold the Colts off, who clinched the game with a game-winning field goal, capping off 17 unanswered points. Tennessee will meet Indianapolis again on Dec 1 for a shot at redemption, but first, they will travel to Oakland to battle the Raiders next Sunday. Tennessee Titans tickets are priced cheaper than most games of the week, averaging at $94.
11/12/13 - The Tennessee Titans are feeling the sting of loss, after granting the Jacksonville Jaguars their first win of the year. Costing them more than just another number in the loss column, Tennessee must now do without starting QB Jake Locker for the rest of the season, who left the game in the first half and returned to the sideline in crutches and walking boot. Backup Ryan Fitzpatrick has played poorly in his two starts, and failed to put the team in field goal range in the fourth, which would have given them a W on Sunday. The squad's third option is Rusty Smith, who may make an appearance against the Indianapolis Colts this Thursday—tickets are a reasonable $23 to get in.
11/5/13 - The Titans were able to overcome the St. Louis Rams in a tight match, with a final score of 28-31, to end their three-game losing streak. Tennessee pulled themselves up to the .500 mark after a clutch turnover generated by Kellen Clemens in the fourth quarter. Jake Locker played a promising game and seems more comfortable following his return from injury, while Chris Johnson rushed 150 yards on 23 carries and 2 TDs. The Titans will be looking for a back-to-back wins when they host the Jacksonville Jaguars next Sunday. Tennessee Titans tickets are as low at $15, and $77 on average.
10/29/13 - The Tennessee Titans will return from their bye to face the St. Louis Rams at Edward Jones Dome. They will be trying for their first win in four games, and at the rate the Houston Texans are falling, Tennessee has a chance to pull themselves up in the AFC South. At the midway mark, they are just two games behind the Indianapolis Colts, and will experience a softer schedule: consisting of the Jaguars, Raiders, Rams, and Colts. If Jake Locker gets some more help from the slacking Offensive line and if his tight ends and wide receivers wake up (aside from efforts by Kendall Wright and Delanie Walker), the Titans will have a real chance at a winning record. Tennessee Titans tickets are by far the cheapest of the week: just $10 to get in and $65 on average.
10/22/13 - The Tennessee Titans suffered their third consecutive loss, falling to the San Francisco 49ers, 17-31 on Sunday. Worse news came in the form of K.S "Bud" Adams' passing Monday morning, the founder and owner of the Tennessee Titans/Houston Oilers franchise, at 90 years old. While the Titans nation was happy to have Jake Locker back in the starting position, after missing just two weeks (despite a projected 6-8 week recovery), their celebration was cut short by a uncompromising San Francisco 49ers squad and a sloppy performance by the Titans who racked up 10 penalties for 100 yards. Still, Locker performed stoically, finishing 25 of 41 for 326 yards and one interception, he will have even more time as the Titans head into their bye week to re-familiarize his play. Tennessee will return in Week 9 to play the St. Louis Rams on the road in Missouri.
10/16/13 - The Tennessee Titans have fallen prey to the unrelenting Seattle Seahawks at home, who maximized pressure on backup QB Ryan Fitzpatrick during Sunday's game. The Titans lost 13-20 despite being in the winning position for the first half of the game, as Tennessee could not hold off the Seahawks who cleaned up their sloppy first half performance, racking up 13 points in the second half to the Tennessee's 3. The Titans will face yet another aggressive defense from the hard-hitting San Francisco 49ers, which will be a crucial win before entering their bye week. Tennessee Titans tickets in Week 7 are a $43 at the lowest and $138 on average.
10/8/13 - The Titans were the latest victims to fall prey to the undefeated Kansas City Chiefs, and their schedule isn't any more forgiving, as they travel to CenturyLink Field to play the Seattle Seahawks, who are hungry for a win after succumbing to an electric Andrew Luck and the Indianapolis Colts. Backup quarterback and 9-year veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick put up a valiant effort in his first start since playing for the Buffalo Bills last season, leading the team in rushing (50 yards) and passing for 247 yards on Sunday, but unable to get comfortable with Titan's wide receivers just yet. The Titans failed to stifle the Chief's fourth quarter rally, solidifying their defeat when they did not to stop Jamaal Charles' 1-yard touchdown. For Week 6, Tennessee Titans tickets at Seattle average at $263, and $28 to get in.
10/1/13 - The Tennessee Titans defeated the New York Giants on Sunday 38-13, but the win came at a devastating price. Quarterback Jake Locker, after a career high 3 touchdown passes, sustained a hip injury from a controversial hit by Muhammad Wilkerson and Quinton Coples that sent him to the hospital overnight. As of now, Locker is out for 4-8 weeks and will undergo more tests to determine the severity of his injury. On a brighter note, the Titans were able to turn Geno Smith's 4 turnovers into 28 points, and Alterraun Verner had an excellent game, with a recovered fumble and two interceptions. Ryan Fitzpatrick will be in for Locker, a 9-year veteran considered one of the best backup quarterbacks in the NFL. The Tennessee Titans will be on the road for Week 6, facing tough 4-0 opponents, the Kansas City Chiefs, in a game the Titans thought they could win with Locker at the helm. Tennessee Titans tickets against the red-hot Chiefs average at $114.
9/25/13 - The Tennessee Titans are looking solid with a 2-1 record, and their momentum is amplified by the stunning play young quarterback Jake Locker has demonstrated these last three weeks, including a 34-yard winning pass to rookie receiver Justin Hunter to seal the deal over the San Diego Chargers on Sunday. Also notable on offense is ninth year receiver Nate Washington and running back
Chris Johnson
, who completed 90 yards last game. Tennessee's defense is currently ranked 10th in the NFL in total points allowed, with nine sacks and 307 yards allowed. The Titans are looking to rise to the top the AFC South when they next face the New York Jets, also 2-1, for a third consecutive game at LP Field in Nashville. Get in for a mere $15 to watch the action on Sunday.
The Tennessee Titans have a hard row to hoe in an extremely competitive AFC South, and their record last season showed it, as they finished 6-10 and third in the division. After sharing time last year with Matt Hasselbeck, quarterback Jake Locker should be the man at the controls of the Titans' offense in 2013 — an offense which has plenty of room for improvement, finishing in the bottom half of the league statistically. Unlike many NFL teams though, most of the offensive work is done by a running back, Chris Johnson, who carried for well over 1,000 yards last season. Receiving targets include team statistical leaders Kendall Wright and Nate Washington, as well as Kenny Britt and tight end Delanie Walker.
As a team, the defensive numbers appear to be wanting as well; individually, left defensive end Derrick Morgan racked up 6.5 sacks last season, tops on the team, just ahead of the 6.0 charted by linebacker Akeem Ayers (the team's leading tackler) and right defensive end Kameron Wimbley. In the defensive backfield, Zach Brown (listed as a linebacker in the Titans' depth chart) and corner Jason McCourty led in INTs, Brown returned two of his three for pick-sixes.
Titans fans at Nashville's
LP Field
are certainly hoping for great success in 2013. In addition to AFC South games with the
Houston Texans
Indianapolis Colts
Jacksonville Jaguars
, the Titans schedule features a must-see game against last year's
Super Bowl
San Francisco 49ers
. 49ers vs. Titans tickets range from $46 in the upper level end zones to $850 down along the sidelines at the 50-yard line. Tennessee football fans will find cheap Titans tickets to each of the other two home games on the Tennessee Titans schedule featuring playoff-caliber teams in Nashville. Colts vs. Titans tickets on November 14th and Texans vs. Titans tickets on December 29th start at $25 — 45% less than the 49ers vs. Titans game.

Trojans Host Coker on ThursdayJanuary 29, 2014
ANDERSON, S.C. –After completing 20 straight duals on the road this season, Anderson University wrestling opens a two-dual homestand, beginning with Coker Thursday night at the Abney Athletic Center.
The Trojans
AU enters the midweek dual coming off a winless afternoon against the region's best at the Super Region 2 Duals on Saturday at Newberry's Eleazer Arena. The Trojans suffered setbacks to Findlay (41-6), Shippensburg (33-12), Tiffin (30-19) and nationally ranked Indianapolis (37-15) to close the day.
The lone bright spot for the Trojans was sophomore Zak Hale, who went 3-1 on the day, but snapped a streak of 15 consecutive wins with a sudden victory loss to Justin Kieffer of UIndy. Overall, Hale is 15-4 on the season and was ranked No. 4 in the latest Basford Rankings released last Thursday.
Redshirt senior Cory Monteforte (125), junior Keenan Simmons (133), graduate student Zane Newton (157) and senior Eric DeAngelis (184) each added two wins on Saturday, headlined by Newton's 12th and 13th victories on the season. For the year, Newton is 13-7 and has won two of his last three bouts.
The Cobras
Coker captured two victories at the Super Region 2 Duals on Saturday, picking up wins over Tiffin (34-15) and Shippensburg (18-17), but falling to Findlay (24-21) and Indianapolis (32-12). For the year, Coker enters Thursday with an 8-6 record in its first season as an NCAA program.
Junior Charlie Huff headlined the Cobra lineup with four straight wins at 133, which including a first period pin over Tiffin's Adam Green in his opening bout. For the season, Huff is 19-9 with two pins on the year.
Adding three victories on the day was heavyweight Austin Akins. Akins dropped his opening bout to Tiffin's Garrett Grey, but bounced back with three straight wins, including a first period pin over Findlay's Luke Fleming. Akins enters Thursday as Coker's lone 20-bout winner with a 20-14 record.
The Series
The 2013-14 campaign is Coker wrestling's inaugural season as Thursday will mark the first ever meeting between Anderson and the Cobras.

So as a general rule to avoid a stack overflow, big objects should be allocated to the heap (correct me if I am wrong). But, since the heap and the stack expand towards each other, wouldn't this cause heap overflow or alternatively limit the space for the stack and higher the chances of stack overflow?

This question came from our site for professional and enthusiast programmers.
Obviously, storing X byte of data is going to reduce the amount of free memory by at least X bytes, no matter where you put it.
I don't think that this is the main distinction to draw.
If you need data to be accessible outside of the current stack frame (for example as a global variable, or to pass it to another thread), you cannot put it into the stack.
The stack shrinks when a subroutine returns, so all data stored in its stack frame is lost.
Data on the heap stays "alive" until you de-allocate it.
Beyond that, because stack memory is generally much more limited than heap memory in "real life" (not just two unlimited sections growing towards each other like you alluded to in your question), you may want to put anything large on the heap, even if you could put it on the stack. For example, Java places everything in the heap. The downside is more complex memory management.
Given the assumptions below, yes -- does not really matter whether you pile it on the floor or hang it from the ceiling.
You question indicates that you choose between heap or stack, only. (And we are not talking about very big objects that might be better mmap'd and other less common scenarios).
Now what happens if we remove these assumptions?
Resume: the exact behavior depends a lot on your OS and your compiler, on Linux only the sky it the limit.
Addendum related SO question
Stack overflow is what happens when an architecture with a bounded stack tries to increment its stack pointer beyond its maximum possible value. Sometimes this is a hard limit, such as on the 6502, which had a 256-byte stack at a fixed location in memory and a one-byte stack pointer. Pushing a 257th byte onto the stack would cause the stack pointer to wrap around and clobber the bottom of the stack. In modern systems, it's usually a soft limit that can be reset before starting the program or while the program is running. Step over that line with a POSIX-y system and you get a segmentation fault. It's also theoretically possible to have a stack that continues to grow downward as long as memory is available to hold it.
The phenomenon you're referring to is called a stack-heap collision, where one grows so much that it overlaps the other. You saw these a lot more frequently when address spaces (and memory) were smaller; now it's a lot less common because we don't run out of either nearly as often.
My advice would be to base your decisions on how you're going to dispose of the memory. If it's something that can disappear when you go out of scope, put it on the stack, because it will save you the headache of managing it. If it needs to stay around past the life of the current scope put it on the heap. Don't take this as a hard-and-fast rule, either, because there are situations where it doesn't apply. Use your judgement: if you're going to allocate something you know will run you out of stack, use the heap and make sure you clean up after yourself. Large allocations tend to be re-used, which is why they get put on the heap more often.
The bottom line is that if you're so short on memory that stack and heap will collide, you have bigger problems than where to put what you allocate.
The answer is clearly platform dependent, compiler dependent and even library dependent.
But consider that in a process there is one stack per thread and as many heap as the process requires to the systems (normally 1, but there can be more: an OS can have API to allocate various "heaps").
There are OSs that gives to a process a given chunk, in which heap and stacks are taken by subtraction, and OSs that gives distinct blocks to the process each mapping a different block of physical memory.
On OSs and processors that implement virtual memory, the process address space is mapped to physical memory by some pointer tables invisible to the process itself.
When we say that the stack grows and shrink we are talking in the "process view". In the "OS view", a stack is just a block that doesn't grow or shrink upon every call/return. it is just more or less filled up. When it becomes full, it has to be reallocated on another physical memory area with more space. The cost of "reallocating a stack frame" is heavy (it must have no "holes" inside) so many OSs doesn't allow a stack to grow over a predefined size. But heap dos not need that care: if a heap block is full, another block is added. No need to make it contiguous. This -on many platform- gives the perception (in the "process space") that a stack is limited (usually 4MB or similar) while the heap is "endless" (and limited only by the physical memory or swap area).
The stack's forte is ultra-fast allocation and deallocation of memory that follows a LIFO pattern (last allocated is first deallocated). If you need memory that will follow a different allocation/deallocation pattern then you are going to have to get it from the heap.
Note that for common multiprocessing operating systems every process gets its own stack and its own heap. Typically the stack for a process is only 1MB to 5MB. The small size is why you should avoid allocating large structures on the stack. In contrast the heap can grow to consume as much of the physical memory as the OS will allow. Yes, you can eventually use up all the heap that the OS will grant you, but that's going to typically be a factor of a 1000 times the size of the stack.
This is something that you do not need to worry about. The heap and the stack are managed seperately. More specifically the heap is backed up by virtual memory so if you overallocate it the OS will page things out. The stack is a seperate thing that does not normally expand beyond a certain size. It does not freely allocate from the heap.
The reason that they say allocate the big stuff from the heap is that the heap can handle that and the stack, a fixed size, cannot.
If you look more closely at the stack you might think that it can keep growing forever, or until memory is exhausted, and you are right. However most/all OSes monitor the size of the stack and will prevent it from continously growing.
Lastly when you allocate data off of the heap it is managed data. What I mean by this is that the OS is allocating/deallocating the data when you need it and when its out its out. If the heap were to run out malloc would return a NULL. Note that on most OSes virtual memory backs this up so malloc will always return something.

text: The fun begins now because I have another chibi Pokemon character that is going to be super easy to draw, and incredibly adorable to look at when you're done. When it comes to making Pokemon into small baby sized figures, it becomes a whole lot easier to create your favorite species. That's the case for this lesson on "how to draw chibi Lucario", step by step. Lucario is one of the better recognized Pokemon, but I don't know if it's more popular then Pikachu, or Charizard. This was an incredibly easy chibi to draw and I think one of the main reasons why it was is because I drew it in a laying down pose. Lucario kind of looks like a wolf or fox. The shape and design of the head and make-up of the body creates a creature that looks canine. When a member asked me if I could make a tutorial based on drawing chibi Lucario, I immediately thought it was a great idea. So thanks for requesting this character, and I would like to urge you guys to keep the ideas and requests coming. I'll let you get busy with creating your very own Lucario in chibi form, but when you're done be sure to stay tuned in to Dragoart for more drawing fun.

It might not be a problem in technical halacha, however it definitely doesn't fit with being a Bas Melech. Every Jewish women and girl is a princess - Dovid Hamelech established this fact in Tehilim chapter 45. Therefore Jewish women have to live up to their essence and dress always in an elegant, regal and royal mode of dress.

Given two compact surfaces $S_1$ and $S_2$ of genus at least $2,$ it is easy to tell when $S_1$ covers $S_2:$ whenever $\chi(S_2)$ divides $\chi(S_1).$ Now, suppose I have two orbifolds of negative Euler characteristic. There is still the divisibility obstruction, but there must be others. Or must there?
Since $\chi(S_1)$ and $\chi(S_2)$ are non-zero, you know what the degree a possible covering should be: it is $$d=\chi(S_1)/\chi(S_2).$$
Let $S_2$ have $k$ cone points of order $$d_1, \ldots, d_k \geqslant 2.$$ If a covering $S_1 \to S_2$ exists, then the preimage of the cone point of order $d_i$ is a collection of $k_i \leqslant d$ cone points of order $d_{i1}, \ldots, d_{i_{k_i}}\geqslant 1$ (order 1 = smooth point). Every $d_{ij}$ divides $d_i$ and we have
$$d = d_i/d_{i1} + \ldots + d_i/d_{i_{k_i}}.$$
A necessary condition for having a covering $S_1 \to S_2$ is therefore the following:
The non-trivial problem here is: is this numerical condition enough to guarantee the existence of a covering? The same problem can be rephrased in therms of branched coverings of surfaces, and is called the Hurewitz existence problem. The Hurewticz problem has a positive solution when $S_2$ is not a sphere, i.e. when it is a surface with genus (and cone points), as proved by Husemoller in 1962. I think that this implies that an orbifold covering exists when $S_2$ has positive genus.
When $S_2$ is a sphere there are some cases where the Hurewitcz problem has no solution, i.e. the necessary conditions above do not guarantee the existence of a covering. The general case when tha base hyperbolic orbifold $S_2$ is a sphere with some cone points is open, see some recent papers of Pascali, Pervova and Petronio.
Kevin's comment gives easy counterexamples -- take an orbifold that's topologically a sphere, but has lots of Z_2 points -- we could give it any negative orbifold characteristic that we want, and yet this would obvious never cover a surface of genus two with no orbifold structure, say.
You might rule that specific example out with also asking something about the euler characteristic of the coarse moduli spaces, but I don't think it would help much.
A little more broadly, you have the usual condition of covering spaces, that the fundamental group of the cover is a subgroup of the fundamental group downstairs. It would be interesting to know whether this was sufficient: if $\pi_1(Y)$ is a subgroup of $\pi_1(X)$, does $Y$ cover $X$?
I haven't thought about this hard, though. I suspect this is probably known, somewhere in the literature on Fuchsian groups. Again, not being careful, but you might hope this reformulated question would be related to something along the lines of whether if G was abstractly a subgroup of H as groups, and now we consider them as subgroups of the automorphisms of the hyperbolic plane, can we conjugate G into H?
I may be misinterpreting your question, but if you calculate the Euler characteristic of an orbifold using the Riemann-Hurwitz Formula, then it is multiplicative in covering.
Here, $\chi(S)=2g-2-m+\sum_{i=1}^m\frac{1}{p_i}$ with $m$ cone points $x_i$ with respective order $p_i$.
I learned about it in the "Primer on Mapping Class Groups" by Farb and Margalit, available on both their websites.

1) Use a comma to separate 2 independent clauses joined by a coordinating conjunction such as and, but and or. The key here is to have 2 subject verb pairs.
In this example we have 2 subject verb pairs: "students reviewed" and "teacher corrected."
In this example we use the coordinating conjunction "and" but have 1 subject and 2 verbs: "teacher corrected, entered"; therefore, no comma is used.
2) Use a comma to separate items in a series to avoid ambiguous meaning.
In this example, we mean that uncle willed me 3 items--his houses, warehouses, and property.
In this example, we mean that uncle willed me 2 items--all his property, which consisted of houses and warehouses.
3) Use a comma with introductory elements such as subordinating clauses that come at the beginning of the sentence.
The introductory element, or subordinating clause is "because the river had flooded." It is introduced with the subordinating conjunction "because."
In this example the subordinating clause is at the end of the sentence so we do not use a comma.
Semicolon (;)
1) Use a semicolon to separate 2 independent clauses in a sentence, closely related, with no coordinating conjunction.
2) Use a semicolon to separate items in a series where the series themselves contain commas.
You use a semicolon (
Use of a semicolon is inappropriate in any other case. The following is incorrect: Because John went to school; Sally was left home alone. because if we split into two sentences, Because John went to school. Sally was left home alone., the first is a sentence fragment.
In addition, use of a comma to separate two complete sentences (John went to school, today was his first day.) is inappropriate and is called a comma splice.
The first is a comma, which is just a pause that off-sets a phrase. The second is a semi-colon, "used to indicate a major division in a sentence where a more distinct separation is felt between clauses or items on a list than is indicated by a comma, as between the two clauses of a compound sentence."

When I search for similar questions that I am going to ask, I usually can't find anything through search box in stackoverflow. But when I enter my question in "Ask Question" page, the questions suggested through the "Questions with similar titles" box are usually relevant. Do you experience the same thing?
What is meta?
- Any Stack Exchange user can ask a question
- The community provides support, votes on ideas, and reports bugs
- Your voice helps shape the way Stack Exchange operates
I used to think the same thing (and even thought of posting this very question at some point), but after thinking about it for a while, I came to the conclusion that something different probably was the reason:
I believe that this is actually the reason for the (perceived) better results: You phrase your search differently.
Bear in mind that Ask searches on title ONLY. Nothing else is looked at: body, tags, nothing. It's a pure title match.
Edit: there is now an advanced search operator, "title:1" which you can see here
The search box has many more features than the Ask Question title box. You can see the options here.. Also the search box strips away common words and keeps keywords. But outside of that they should be searching the same things.
Make sure when you're searching in the search box to use it like the ask question box. But remember that it is stripping away non keywords. You can even see what words it's stripping out.
Here I'm asking the question "When are the dev days happening?
When you click that and then click any tab (like relevance or newest). Then check out what the search query is consisted of. In this case it's changed to "dev days happening"

Sometimes, Enough Really Is Enough
As 2012 comes to a close and you are deluged with news about the stock market's performance for the year, John C. "Jack" Bogle, pioneer of the low-cost index fund and founder of Vanguard Group, wants you to remember this:
"The stock market is a giant distraction from the business of investing."
Related Video
In his 60-year career, Mr. Bogle has witnessed what to him is a concerning shift from a world where long-term investing was the mantra to one in which short-term speculation is running rampant.
And so, on the one-year anniversary of this column, I caught up with Mr. Bogle to discuss the difference between investing and speculating and, in the spirit of the holidays, what it means to have "enough."
"People look at investing more or less as trading stocks or mutual funds or God forbid ETFs, and that has nothing to do with investing," he says.
Legendary investor Benjamin Graham (Warren Buffett's mentor) famously drew a distinction between investing and speculating: "The speculator's primary interest lies in anticipating and profiting from market fluctuations," he wrote. "The investor's primary interest lies in acquiring and holding suitable securities at suitable prices."
In his latest book, "The Clash of the Cultures: Investment vs. Speculation," Mr. Bogle cites another legendary figure, British economist John Maynard Keynes, who drew a similar distinction between investment, or "forecasting the prospective yield of [an] asset over its whole life," and speculation, or "forecasting the psychology of the markets."
Like Lord Keynes in his time, Mr. Bogle today is "deeply concerned" about the influence of short-term speculation on the markets, though as a student at Princeton University he was cheeky enough to reject the famed economist's cynicism. In his 1951 thesis, Mr. Bogle predicted a "steady, sophisticated, enlightened, and analytic" demand for securities from the growing investment-management industry—a demand based essentially on the intrinsic performance of a corporation instead of the public's opinion of the value of a share.
"I was wrong and he was right," says Mr. Bogle flatly. The "enlightened" demand for securities that he'd predicted is now in short supply, he says, while speculative demand has soared.
Consider: Annual turnover of U.S. stocks climbed from about 15% in 1951, when Mr. Bogle entered the investment business, to 100% in the 1990s to 280% in 2008 before dipping slightly to 250% in 2011.
The problem with all that trading, he explains, is that, like casino gambling, it's ultimately a loser's game after transaction costs, advisory fees, sales loads and administrative costs are factored in.
Still, Mr. Bogle is steadfast in his belief that there remain common-sense ways to invest for the long haul and, as he puts it, claim your fair share of the returns earned by public companies. His list includes buying—and holding—index funds as the core of your portfolio and managing your expectations for future returns.
On the subject of mutual funds versus ETFs, he says: "There's nothing the matter conceptually with a broad-market ETF. The issue is what other lunacy is going on in ETF land." By lunacy he means ETFs that invest in narrow market segments and ETFs with high daily trading volumes.
As for why speculation has eclipsed investing, Mr. Bogle points to, among other things, a broader change in our national culture.
He writes: "... we Americans like to buy things—in abundance—before we have the cash to pay for them. We focus on today's wants rather than tomorrow's needs. Even our wealthiest citizens never seem to have enough. We compare ourselves with our neighbors and, since the realities of life can be so hard to overcome, we look to speculation—even at long odds—to lift us out of the everydayness of our lives."
It's a theme he's explored before, in a little book he wrote called, simply, "Enough." It opens with a story about the novelist Joseph Heller who, at a lavish party on Shelter Island, N.Y., was ribbed by another guest, author Kurt Vonnegut, that their host had probably made more money in a day than all the money Mr. Heller had earned from his best-seller, "Catch-22."
Mr. Heller's retort: "I've got something he can never have…enough."

Billions Will Be Spent In Valley
MOUNDSVILLE – Darrell Bull is the latest Oklahoma Sooner to pitch the potential of natural gas and oil production to a room full of West Virginia Mountaineers accustomed to mining and burning coal.
But with plans to invest a total of $3.84 billion for infrastructure to process and fractionate natural gas in northern West Virginia, Bull found a mostly warm welcome during his speech at the Thursday Marshall County Chamber of Commerce dinner held at the former West Virginia Penitentiary.
"This Marcellus Shale thing is pretty important to us – and to a lot of people in Oklahoma and Texas," said Bull, who serves as general manager of Williams Ohio Valley Midstream, the Moundsville-based division of Tulsa, Okla.-based Williams Partners.
"We know West Virginia is based on coal. But if at some point coal is not going to be competitive, gas is the next progression," added the University of Oklahoma graduate.
Last month, Frank Billings, vice president of Onshore Gathering and Processing Eastern Region for Williams, said the company is committed to creating 100 more permanent jobs in Marshall County. Bull said the company hopes to hire 60 additional employees from the local area by the end of this year.
Williams is taking over part of the building that is home to TeleTech in Moundsville. The large structure near the south end of the city is owned by the Wheeling-based Regional Economic Development Partnership. The reconfigured structure will allow Williams to use its portion without disturbing the TeleTech operations.
In April, Williams paid $2.5 billion to acquire the Fort Beeler cryogenic processing plant – which can be seen along U.S. 250 between Moundsville and Cameron – and the other Marshall County operations of Caiman Energy. With plans to build $1.34 billion worth of additional processing capacity, Williams will have spent $3.84 billion for infrastructure in northern West Virginia.
Companies like Caiman and Williams – along with Dominion Resources and MarkWest Energy – are known in the industry as processors, or "midstreamers." This is because the processing company accepts the wet Marcellus and Utica shale gas that drillers like Gastar Exploration, Chesapeake Energy or CNX Gas Corp. draw out of the ground. This gas contains ethane, propane, butane, pentane and other substances, in addition to the dry methane.
At processing plants, midstreamers separate the methane from the other substances so that the methane can be sold by utility companies, such as Mountaineer Gas or Columbia Gas. The fractionation facilities separate the liquids from each other so the products can be marketed individually.
"If we could get someone to build a cracker around here, an ethane cracker to make ethylene, they would be a natural customer of ours," Bull said in explaining his company would ship the ethane to a cracker.
Earlier this year, Royal Dutch Shell announced plans to build its multi-billion dollar cracker near Monaca, Pa., after examining sites along the Ohio River in both West Virginia and Ohio. However, local issues involving taxation and environmental concerns may delay this cracker project, a fact all too familiar to Bull.
"In that other state (Pennsylvania), you have so many different townships you have to deal with that all have different regulations. Here in West Virginia, the state is much easier to deal with," he said.
Noting his company is also going to accept gas extracted in Ohio, Bull said Williams is in the process of boring a 24-inch pipeline underneath the Ohio River to pump the gas to the Williams plants. He declined to identify the specific location of this pipeline.
Following Bull's speech, he fielded a question from a member of the audience. The questioner, who did not identify himself, said natural gas companies say they are going to be good neighbors, but do not hire enough local workers. Bull answered that his company plans to hire 60 more local employees by the end of the year, adding that he hopes "people work 30 years with us and retire with us."

5 Everyday Things You Won't Believe Are Copyrighted
#2. There's a Copyright on Your DNA
You can totally stake a copyright claim on the very things that define you as a human being, and we don't mean your shameful Internet browser history (seriously, dude, delete it) -- we're talking about your genes. In fact, it's estimated that around 20 percent of the genes we all share are already patented by companies.
"Who authorized these tits? Those are our breasts!"
How the hell is that possible? Well, it's argued that when a gene is removed from the body and isolated, it becomes a separate chemical entity that can be patented. You know, like when you take someone else's lamp from their house and isolate it, it automatically becomes yours. Then you rent that lamp for thousands of dollars to people trying to do cancer research.
You see, one of the patents someone holds is over a pair of fancy little genes called BRCA1 and BRCA2, which have been linked to both ovarian and breast cancer. These genes have existed for as long as there have been humans, but now the patent on them is owned by Myriad Genetics Inc., who've been adamantly defending it in court. We're sure that the fact that Myriad Genetics also owns the patent on the $3,000 test that detects these genes (and predicts if women are likely to get cancer) is entirely coincidental.
"That way, if they get a horrible, deadly illness, we win twice!"
The scary thing about being able to patent genes is that mapping or studying the human genome is probably humanity's best chance to cure cancer -- however, once a company holds a patent on a gene, they can prevent other people from studying it, testing it or so much as looking at it.
That's why in 2010, the American Civil Liberties Union and other organizations representing 150,000 scientists challenged the patent, only to be shot down by a federal court. Even the freaking guy who discovered DNA thinks that patenting genes should be illegal -- he says someone actually suggested that he should patent the DNA helix way back in 1953, but he thought it was a ridiculous idea.
"You'd have to be a flaming, engorged sack of douchebag to put money ahead of human progress."
Meanwhile, Myriad Genetics argues that restricting the ability to patent genes would actually stifle research, because if you can't make yourself insanely rich discovering new genes, then what's the point of even trying?
#1. Cops Sue People for Using Their Trademarks ... Even Other Cops
Nowadays, even the police can be trademarked. No, we're not talking about the '80s band here -- law enforcement agencies can absolutely sue the shit out of anyone who tries to use their image without permission, or refuses to pay up enough to acquire said permission, or simply has no idea that displaying some guys in a certain uniform outside their store would result in a lawsuit.
For instance, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police have been enforcing their trademark on the image of the classic Mountie uniform since 1995, not just in Canada, but all over the world, and with the occasional help of Disney (because what the hell, those guys pretty much look like cartoon characters already). The objective is to prevent the tarnishing of the RCMP image by way of stuff like Mountie-based professional wrestling or pornography.
Sports World Cards
This one could go either way.
However, this also affects Canadian stores that sell the exact type of innocent Mountie mugs and key chains you'd expect to find while visiting the country. Don't worry, though: The RCMP is more than happy to allow those stores to continue selling merchandise ... as long as they're willing to hand over 10 percent of everything they make.
Meanwhile, the New York City Police Department has gotten so protective about their "brand" that they've sent cease-and-desist letters to everyone from NYPD-themed restaurants to nonprofit associations run by retired NYPD officers. That's right: They're going after their own future selves, which we think was the plot of TimeCop.
Or, more awesomely, Terminator 2. If you think about it.
Apparently, the problems started when a fundraiser organized by a retired cop all the way in Florida used the NYPD shield on its flyers -- soon, retiree clubs all over the country got cease-and-desist letters from the department letting them know that they could no longer use the logo on their websites or their member T-shirts or their anything. And if the former cops refused to stop using the same shield many of them wore for decades? Then it's "Thank you very much for your service, see you in court."
And they totally mean it: In 2005, they went after an interstate pizzeria chain themed around the New York police, where the servers presumably speak in angry Brooklyn accents and begin macing you in the face if you take too long to order. Even though none of the pizzerias were actually in New York, the NYPD objected to the use of their badge and demanded a logo redesign and a legal disclaimer across all posters stating that the restaurant had absolutely no affiliation to the department.
"Taste of New York" means that for an extra $5, a hobo spits in your milkshake.

The 5 Most Insane Improvised Weapons (That Were Animals)
#2. Grocery Store Vigilantes
The "Weapon"
A turkey (frozen).
Sometimes ordinary people really do become heroes. Here's an inspiring story of unexpected heroism, blunt force trauma and poultry.
And the assassination that shocked the nation.
In November 2008, career criminal Fred Louis Ervin robbed a North Carolina gas station. After the nefarious ne'er-do-well acquired the contents of the cash register, he hopped across the road to a grocery store parking lot to score himself a sweet getaway ride. The only problem was the car's owner, Irene Bailey, was currently getting into it. Ervin wasn't going to let a little detail like that stop him. In the words of a witness:
"The lady was being beaten on the ground. She was lying on the ground, and the guy was on top of her - physically hitting her."
But let's be honest. She probably had it coming.
However, just as all seemed lost, something awesome happened: Other shoppers surrounded Ervin. One of the posse (whose name police did not release) picked up a frozen turkey from amongst Irene's spilled groceries. Hopefully saying something like "It's time for you... to go cold turkey," he brought the mighty bird down on Ervin's carjacking head.
Despite his severe head wound, Ervin still managed to escape in Irene's car. Just not very well. He hit an impressive five other cars on his way out of the parking lot. Police picked him up a short while later without any trouble.
There aren't many certainties in this world, but we feel we can say this with some conviction: Thanksgiving dinner that year was the sweetest damn thing Irene Bailey ever ate.
"Revenge is a dish best served... turkey. Wait, that sucked. Can I try again?"
#1. The Hells Angels vs. Germany's Greatest Hero
The "Weapon"
A puppy (alive).
If you just had to throw a puppy at someone, your viable options would likely make a short list. Mailman, neighbor kids, the guy who canceled Arrested Development. We can't imagine "Hells Angel" would end up on anyone's list. That is unless of course you're a 26-year-old German student whom we'll just call Testosticor Fantastiballs.
Portrayed here by Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Testosticor, like many people, suffered from depression. Unlike many people, however, he chose a rather interesting way of coping with it. Instead of, say, finding solace in loved ones or sitting in the dark listening to Joy Division, he felt that rather more... drastic action was required.
So, he grabbed the first puppy he saw, leapt manfully into his car and tore up the Autobahn until he'd reached the nearest Hells Angels hideout.
Probably in this vehicle.
Arming himself with nothing more than the puppy, he strode into the grounds and proceeded to heroically... drop his shorts.
While the Angels were stymied trying to figure out why a psychopath had just strode into their clubhouse and mooned them, Testosticor executed his masterstroke: He withdrew the bemused puppy (presumably from a holster) and hurled it at the nearest leather-clad guy.
Impregnating all of these women in the process.
So get the image in your head: Here's this guy with pants around his ankles, throwing puppies at a motorcycle gang on their compound. Take that in.
OK? Let's continue (and yes, the puppy was fine).
By this point, Testosticor must have partially come to his senses and decided to follow-up his patently absurd assault with the most bizarrely awesome escape attempt in the history of shenanigans.
The first phase of his retreat strategy involved running over to a building site and commandeering a fully operational bulldozer.
The second phase was coming to the realization that, however awesome, bulldozers aren't actually very fast. Phase three had him causing a three-mile traffic jam on the highway and phase four saw him finally abandon the bulldozer (still on the highway) and hitchhike all the way home.
Who knew that you could hitchhike to Valhalla?
All in all, a very well executed plan.
Despite arriving safely home, Mr. Fantastiballs was quickly apprehended by the law and charged with being the world's best person. The court sentenced him to life in luxury and all the eager German milk maidens he could ravage [citation needed].
As for the puppy? Well, it was handed over to an animal shelter, and is probably living comfortably off the royalties it made selling its heart-warming story to Hollywood.

Is there any character formula for demazure modules in arbitary kac moody settings which does not use demazure operators?
Ryom-Hansen, Steen(DK-CPNH) Littelmann's refined Demazure character formula revisited. (English summary) Sém. Lothar. Combin. 49 (2002/04), Art. B49d, 10 pp.
The review:
"The author provides a purely combinatorial proof the Demazure character formula, a generalisation of Weyl's character formula. This is done using only the combinatorial properties of crystals, namely Kashiwara's crystal operators and the ∗-operation. Prior proofs required an appeal to either representation theory or Littelmann's path models."
Littelmann's, which gives a positive formula (counting Littelmann paths). His ICM address is here: http://www.mathunion.org/ICM/ICM1994.1/Main/icm1994.1.0298.0308.ocr.pdf
He proves its validity using Demazure operators -- I hope that doesn't disqualify it!
