Chris Mortensen (11:07 AM)
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!! This is an even more hectic Wednesday than usual, so I have to keep this to about 30-to-40 minutes but let's rolll...
J Treehorn (Malibu)
How could Peter King possibly pick the Saints to go 7-9 and the Chiefs to go 8-8 in his preseason picks? Did he drink too many caramel machiattos before making his picks?
Chris Mortensen (11:09 AM)
I will defend Peter because we all make pre-season picks in which some look silly. I think I picked the Sainst to go 2-14 the year they went to the NFC title game. Now I did pick them to win the NFC South this year. As for the Chiefs, I do believe Peter drank some Kool-Aid because he's such a Pioli guy. :)
Morris (Philadelphia)
Mort,Why do most commentators seem to overlook the Colts from declaring them #1 and the team to beat? Where are the Colts weaker than others? I keep hearing about the Saints, Vikings and Eagles--how can they be declared better than the Colts?
Chris Mortensen (11:11 AM)
Personally, the Colts have surprised me with hwo good their defense has been, despite some key injuries, like Bob Sanders. But the thing about this year, I have a difficult time just pointing to one team and saying "They are the best, period." I believe there's a razor's edge difference among the top teams with the Colts at the top.
stacy (georgetown)
mort-does dallas win on sunday and go to the playoffs?
Chris Mortensen (11:13 AM)
Yes, I believe the Cowboys win and go to the playoffs. I have talked to real NFL folks who say they are very talented, especially when the O-line is playing at a high level. Tony Romo is a really good quarterback, no matter what anybody says. He has played winning football in December even though they're 1-2 this month.
Mike (Boca Raton)
How much of a hole does losing CB L. Webb leave in the Ravens secondary?
Chris Mortensen (11:14 AM)
It's a setback because he was making real strides at a position of weakness. But they should get back Ed Reed and Terrell Suggs for the Steeers game, perhaps even Tavares Gooden at LB.
Frank (Pell Lake, WI)
Mort, do you think that Chris Johnson will reach the elusive 2,000 yard mark for rushing in the next 2 games?
Chris Mortensen (11:16 AM)
I sure do believe Chris Johnson will get to 2,000 yards. He's so much more durable than NFL scouts projected; he knows how to protect himself when he is hit; he's tremendously competitive; and he has arguably the best O-line in football. Oh, he's fast. Really, really fast.
Milton (Illinois)
HAPPY HOLIDAYS MORT!! The Cards struggled against Detroit,was it just a case of letting down after getting up by 17 or something to worry about heading into the playoffs? thanks
Chris Mortensen (11:18 AM)
Based on what happened with the Cardinals last year, I'm going to dismiss a game in which they struggled, but actually won, against the Lions. I do think it's important to get Kurt Warner rested these next two weeks. At his age, he can use it. The other thing, as we are always reminded in the NFL, is Any Given Sunday. Go back week by week and look at results that surprised you or even a close game like the Rams gave the Saints.
Ryan (Indiana)
In the off season the Colts are going to give Peyton a new contract. What kind of $$$'s and years do you think he will get.
Chris Mortensen (11:21 AM)
Yes, the Colts will get a new contract done with Peyton Manning. I'm assuming that. It's an uncapped year with some tricky rules in place. This is a deal that will blow away everyone else, in my opinion. I'm not going to be surprised at at $125-to-$150 million package with the guarantees off the charts. I swear I'm just guessing but that's what I'm expecting.
anthony brander (seaside heights nj)
mort how come marvin harrison hasnt got a job in the nfl some where.there are plenty of playoff teams that could use his help espically like the cowboys and titans.
Chris Mortensen (11:21 AM)
Marvin has a lot of pride and he wasn't going to play for low wages.
Justin (Indianapolis)
Hey Mort,Can the colts get healthy enough to make a SB run in the post season? The Chargers are the AFC team that scares me the most. What's your take on a Colts, Chargers AFC title game?
Chris Mortensen (11:24 AM)
The Chargers are scary because they have monsters playing at all offensive skill positions. Phillip Rivers is 6-5; Vince Jackson; Malcolm Floyd; Anontio Gates..just to name a few, all about 6-5. Phillip is a great QB and when he's in trouble he can throw up jump balls and his guys are going to win it. LT is healthier and a factor. Norv Turner, outstanding play caller. And Ron Rivera has re-proven himself as a defensive coordinator and, in my opinion, deserves to get more head coaching interviews.
Ryan (Medford OR)
Chris, Can you see a promising year next year for Detroit? They should be getting some good help in this years draft and Stafford should be healthy and be in his 2nd year of this offensive system.
Chris Mortensen (11:26 AM)
The Lions began the season with a fairly depleted roster; they have constantly tweaked it; they have had injuries. I sincerely believe Jim Schwartz as head coach, Martin Mayhew as GM and Matthew Stafford as QB means bright days ahead for the Lions. Year 2 better, year 3, in the hunt.
Frank (Pell Lake, WI)
The Chargers have talked a bit recently about the last time they played the Titans and how dirty the Titans played. Can fans expect to see the NFL hand out some not-so holiday cheer in the form of fines after the game on Christmas?
Chris Mortensen (11:27 AM)
The Titans are a very physical team. Dirty? I think edgy is a better term and the Chargers bring some of that, too. Quite a game.
stacy (georgetown)
mort we need the grammer police......
Chris Mortensen (11:28 AM)
Ha! We'll clean up what we can when finished. Trying to speed dial this chat because of time constraints. Oh, and you did mean grammar, not grammer, right?
Dan (Buffalo, NY)
Mort, now that Holmgren is at the healm in Cleveland, do you think his "instant credibility" will help bring in better FA's or do you think the Browns will still need to overpay players to join the team?
Chris Mortensen (11:30 AM)
Free agents go where the money is in 98% of cases. That's a simple fact. You bulid through the draft and use free agency with wisdom to supplement. The Browns have 11 draft picks. That's a good thing.
Leslie Frazier (Minnesota)
Noone talks about this Mort, but my D gave up 26 points to a toothless Carolina team. What the heck happened??
Chris Mortensen (11:32 AM)
The Panthers are a well-coached team. Jonathan Stewart was the 14th player taken in the draft. Heck of a running back when a DeAngelo Williams goes down. O-line tough, even with injuries. Julius Peppers really won the game. I did think Antoine Winfield had an unusually tough game and I want to emphasize what two NFL personnel men told me this week - linebacker E.J. Henderson was a huge loss on defense.
Kyle (Charlotte)
Did John Fox save his job Sunday night? I hope not, because Cowher would've won more than 6 games with this squad. Fox needs to go.
Chris Mortensen (11:35 AM)
I'm not sure I agree. I've said this before: Fox believes in defense, hard nose football and running the ball. Cowher believes in defense, hard nosed football and running the ball. Cowher missed the playoffs three straight years. He didn't win a Super Bowl until his 14th year. Obviously, the Panthers need to solve the QB problem but Jake Delhomme was a favorite of owner Jerry Richardson. Now if a change needs to be made to energize the organizational and fan base, then so be it. But John Fox is an outstanding coach.
Jeff (NY, NY)
What can we expect with the Jets Colts game on Sunday? Does the Jets style of play have any affect on what Colts players play?
Chris Mortensen (11:36 AM)
Good question. The Jets have a tendency to hit the quarterback and if that happens early, I could see Jim Caldwell pulling the plug on Peyton Manning. Now, even against the Jaguars, Caldwell rested injured players or limited their play - Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis (best DE tandem in football) and Pierre Garcon sat out 2nd half. It will be something to monitor but Colts did get a few extra days to rest because they played last Thursday.
Bill (Chicago)
Is Mark Sanchez just not ready for the NFL speed? He has the #1 defense and rush offense and has a top 5 O-Line. Whats his deal?
Chris Mortensen (11:37 AM)
His deal is that he's a ROOKIE! Forget what Matt Ryan and Joe Flacco did last year.
staniel (davenport iowa)
Why are the bears so bad, is it because jay cutler?
Chris Mortensen (11:39 AM)
Bears are bad because offensive line is bad, receivers are mediocre and it impacts Cutler, who clearly has lost his confidence and I would say even confidence in the scheme. The defense also has underperformed. There has to be dramatic changes, if not at the top, then certainly with the offensive staff and the Bears did a big-time off-season with a couple of free agents because they don't have their top two draft picks.
Brian (San Diego)
Do you believe that the national perspective of Philip Rivers is starting to change? Also, do you think he has an honest chance to win either MVP or Offensive Player of the Year?
Chris Mortensen (11:41 AM)
I think Rivers always had had a strong national respect. He is in the MVP discussion but this is Peyton Manning's award right now with Brees and Rivers in that debate. I think Chris Johnson will be the Offensive Player of the Year. I do think Rivers is either going to the Pro Bowl or Super Bowl.
Jason (Ottawa, KS)
Is there any chance we get Polamalu back this weekend? Or is the plan to still hold off until Jan. 3 against the Dolphins? This being such an important game to our playoff chances, I would think he would play if he could.
Chris Mortensen (11:41 AM)
The Steelers would love for Polamalu to play this week against the Ravens but it seems iffy. We're waiting to hear.
Shane (Idaho)
Mort, Quinn is out again for the rest of the season. Are there some durability concerns that no one saw with him? He was gritty a ND, getting the stuffing knocked out of him the first two years, now he can't even finish a season where he doesn't play all the games. Is this the end of the Brady Quinn era in Cleveland?
Chris Mortensen (11:43 AM)
I must tell you I really think Brady Quinn has a lot of qualities teams desire in a starting quarterback. But I have a feeling he may not be in Cleveland in 2010. Maybe that's a good thing for both sides. The durability part? Freak stuff.
johnny (new britain,ct)
do u think brett is worn out by this time of the year?
Chris Mortensen (11:44 AM)
I don't know. I do know the Vikings have lost two of their last three games. It's not all on Brett. Offensive line. Defense has slipped. But, as you know, we always said that the success of Favre will be based on how he plays in December and January. Let's see.
Teddy (New Orleans)
Chris, do my Rams go after a franchise QB in the draft this year or go BPA? I remember last year everyone said Matthew Stafford was first player picked because hes a franchise QB and you get one if you need one. The Rams need one.
Chris Mortensen (11:46 AM)
Unless Sam Bradford just blows the Rams away, there's no real "franchise" quarterback to take that high. If Ndamanakon Suh is the closest thing we've seen to Reggie White, why would you pass on that? Maybe get a QB in the 2nd round. Maybe trade or sign one. But this is a 3-year process with the new regime, though quarterback must be addressed.
Josh (Philly, PA)
Mort is there anything the Eagles organization can do about the horrific treatment that opposing team fans receive in their stadium ? I was at the 49ers game and over 200 people were hitting 2 49ers fans with snowballs in the face in the back it was borderline assault. I only say this because as the fans were escorted away one had blood coming from his face screaming he was hit with a rock in one.
Chris Mortensen (11:48 AM)
I believe Jeffrey Lurie, the Eagles' owner, was embarrassed by what happened. I think commissioner Goodell certainly has communicated something. I expect security to be enhanced. It was disgraceful.
JARED (West Union IA)
Any hope for the Broncos this weekend. Can you imagine how fired up Dawkins is gonna be on his homecoming?
Chris Mortensen (11:49 AM)
Dawkins is fired up every week but he also has been playing hurt. Dawkins knows he has to play disciplined football. Get caught up in the emtions? Maybe in pre-game. Maybe in post-game. In between, he has to just play the game.
Chris Mortensen (11:51 AM)
I have to wrap up now. Thanks for your time. Again, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all. Remember what the true meaning is and embrace your loved ones, pray for those who are hurting, reach out to them if you can, and pray for our troops everywhere, as well as their families who miss them so much. Catch us on Sunday NFL Countdown at 11 a.m. ET and catch me on Twitter.com @mortreport. God Bless!

Alec Baldwin's dramatic weight loss has not gone unnoticed by his celebrity friends. The change prompted "The Good Wife" star Alan Cumming to poke fun at Baldwin Monday night at the Hamptons International Film Festival Awards.
"He's like the white, male Star Jones," joked Cumming onstage. "He's younger and thinner every time I see him. It must be the Hamptons."
Baldwin didn't miss a beat. "What would Star Jones say about this?" he asked, imitating Jones.
Jones had returned to the headlines when Anderson Cooper responded to her claim that his decision to confirm he's gay was driven by ratings. Tuesday, Cooper had more harsh words for the former "View" co-host.
"Don't get me in a war with Star Jones now. I said my piece on Star Jones. I am not one to have a feud. She tweeted back something. I said my piece, and then she tweeted me and I'm not responding. Actually, the 'Today' show tried to book me to go on with Star Jones so we could tussle. I was like, 'I've got nothing to say, nor do I want to be in a room with her.' I'm done," Anderson said on his daytime talk show.

One of the girls was summarily disqualified with little explanation. What the hell happened, and is Facebook to blame?OK, just so I don't go breaking my own rules on spoilers, I'm going to talk about who won and who was disqualified, so if Tyra's dog and pony show is still sitting in your DVR unwatched, then read no further. Advertisement Last night the three finalists of Pot Ledom: Top Model Backwards squared off to see who would be crowned the winner of the all-star season. We were down to Lisa D'Amato, my crazypants favorite; Alison Harvard, the girl with the big eyes, and Angelea Preston, 716 in da house! Preston was clearly judge André Leon Talley's favorite all season and since he has been selecting the winners as long as he's been a judge (or so it seems), Angelea had the competition in the bag. Except then she was disqualified for what seemed like no reason and Lisa was named the winner. This panel was more patently ridiculous than what we're used to from Tyra. It was crazier than one of her "motion editorials." Here is what the CW said about the dis in a statement: After production wrapped on the current cycle of America's Next Top Model, we learned information that made Angelea ineligible and she was subsequently disqualified from the competition. As a result, new scenes were filmed to address this for the audience during the finale. Still a question wrapped inside an enigma covered over with a weave and given a make over. Speculation on the internet, and in People say that Anglea was the real winner of the show but that she bragged about it on her Facebook page before the show aired. When the production found out, they disqualified her for blabbing and called all the girls back in to refilm the finale. Now that had to be an awkward scene. Sponsored That will teach you people, not everything belongs on your damn wall! Angelea went crazy on Facebook and now she is no longer in the running to be America's Next Top Model. And congrats to Lisa....I guess, even though we all know now that she was really in second place. [Image via Getty]Reply93 repliesLeave a reply

The Hidden Power of Photoshop Elements 2
Adobe's 'kid brother' to Photoshop has earned rave reviews for user friendliness, one-click features, and affordability. But there's more to Elements than meets the eye - after all, it's based on the Photoshop engine. Now, Richard Lynch extends the power of Elements, teaching readers powerful image correction techniques and bringing them much of Photoshop's functionality through a series of original "actions" included on the CD. Topics covered include: professional-quality colour correction, complex image alterations, and sharing images on the web and in print.

A report from the Comic-Con 2016 Trek Talk panel "Star Trek and NASA Boldly Go."
A report from San Diego Comic-Con on "Star Trek" superfan and museum founder Huston Huddleston.
Eddie Murphy looks like the latest victim of the Star Magic Syndrome, in which it is assumed that a movie will be a hit simply because it stars an enormously talented person. Thus it is not necessary to give much thought to what he does or says, or to the story he finds himself occupying. "Beverly Hills Cop" is a movie with an enormously appealing idea -- a tough black detective from Detroit goes to Beverly Hills to avenge the murder of a friend -- but the filmmakers apparently expected Murphy to carry this idea entirely by himself.
Murphy plays a street-wise rebel who is always getting in trouble with his commanding officer because he does things his own way. The movie opens with an example of that: Murphy is single-handedly running a sting operation when the cops arrive unexpectedly, setting off a wild car-truck chase through the city streets. Even while we're watching the thrilling chase, however, stirrings of unease are beginning to be felt: Any movie that begins with a chase is not going to be heavy on originality and inspiration. Then Murphy's old friend comes to town, fresh from a prison term and six months of soaking up the rays in California. The friend has some negotiable bonds with him, and then some friends of the guy who owns the bonds turn up and murder Murphy's friend. That makes Eddie mad, and he drives his ancient beater out to Beverly Hills, where it sort of stands out among the Porsches and Mercedeses. He also meets a childhood friend (Lisa Eilbacher) who now works for an art dealer.
At this point, the movie can go in one of two directions. It can become a perceptive and pointed satire about American attitudes, showing how the ultrachic denizens of Beverly Hills react to this black cop from Detroit. Or it can go for broad, cheap laughs, and plug into a standard plot borrowed from countless TV crime shows. "Beverly Hills Cop" doesn't pause a moment before taking the low road. We figure that out right away, when Murphy tries to register in a hotel and is told there isn't any room. He loudly pulls both ranks and race, claiming to be a correspondent from Rolling Stone and accusing the desk clerk of racism. This is (a) not funny, and (b) not convincing, because Beverly Hills desk clerks were not born yesterday. If the people who made this movie had been willing to listen to the ways that real people really talk, they could have made the scene into a jewel instead of an embarrassment.
Meanwhile, the plot thickens. It turns out that the killers of Eddie's friend were employees of the evil Victor Maitland (Steven Berkoff), a Beverly Hills criminal whose art gallery -- where Eilbacher works -- is a front for cocaine smuggling. When Murphy tries to move against Maitland, he comes up against the Beverly Hills Cops, including an Abbott and Costello team that supplies unnecessary pratfalls, successfully undermining the credibility of any police scene that threatens to work. But wait a minute. What's this movie about, anyway? Is it a comedy or an action picture? Audiences may expect a comedy, but the closing shoot-out seems inspired by the machine gun massacre at the end of Brian De Palma's "Scarface," and the whole business with the cocaine is so very, very tired that when we see the boss and his henchmen in the warehouse, we feel like we've switched to another movie -- maybe a dozen other movies.
Murphy is one of the smartest and quickest young comic actors in the movies. But he is not an action hero, despite his success in "48 Hrs.," and by plugging him into an action movie, the producers of "Beverly Hills Cop" reveal a lack of confidence in their original story inspiration. It's like they had a story conference that boiled down to: "Hey gang! Here's a great idea! Let's turn it into a standard idea and fill it with clichés, and take out the satire and put in a lot of machine guns!"
This movie is trying to kill these women, but they endure.

I bought these sheets on a whim. I'm so glad i did. These are the best sheets i have ever owned.
Wonderful sheets!
love these sheets, they are super soft and yet thick and 100% cotton. Most all cotton comes out of the dryer a wrinkled mess, but these laundered nicely.
These are some of the nicest sheet I have purchased. So soft, not scratchy. Been thru the washing machine & dryer many times and no pilling. I would order them again if they were to wear out. Although I don't think that will be anytime soon. They are of a substantial weight and very durable. They are my favorites :)
I ordered these sheets because of the high thread count, but I wasn't sure if they would be very high quality for less than $50. I was very happy with my purchase! The sheets are soft, very good quality and wash well. I would buy these the next time I need sheets, and I would recommend them to friend.
These sheets feel just as nice as ones I have spent twice as much to purchase. They also wear really well. We have had them, rotating with only one other set of sheets, for almost 2 years. The other set was much more expensive and the seams are beginning to come undone. I will be replacing them with another set of these.

Product Description
'As might be expected from a celebrated crime novelist, her follow-on to Pride and Prejudice introduces a detective story into Austen's world; but without any tremor of incongruity. An acute admirer of Austen's novels (which, her autobiography makes clear, she has been re-reading for more than 80 years), she keeps her sequel close to their ironic spiritedness, moral toughness and psychological finesse ... brimming with astute appreciation, inventiveness and narrative zest, Death Comes to Pemberley is an elegantly gauged homage to Austen and an exhilarating tribute to the inexhaustible vitality of James's imagination.' --Peter Kemp, Sunday Times
'P. D. James has the advantage in having both the skill and the intelligence to hold her own in Austen's company. Her charmingly conceived murder mystery unfolds like a big soft comfort blanket just in time for the nights drawing in: the nation's best-loved crime writer and best-known romance in a magic meld, with Downtony moments below stairs, spooky moonlit bits and some police procedural thrown in for good measure ... James takes Pride and Prejudice to places it never dreamed of, and does so with a charm that will beguile even the most demanding Janeite.' --Claire Harman, Evening Standard
The story is accomplished and witty, naturally, but to see James s sensibility at work on the character of Jane Austen is a wonderful treat. I find the merging of these two women of literature from such different ages to be totally intriguing. --Melvyn Bragg, New Statesman >>
A tribute to Jane Austen and a sheer delight. A book to banish Boxing Day blues. --Allan Massie, Spectator
Book Description
P. D. James masterfully recreates the world of Pride and Prejudice, and combines it with the excitement and suspense of a brilliantly-crafted crime story.See all Product Description

In this case my advice is clear: don't!
Re-read 'Cover Her Face' instead.
To write a thriller in the style of Jane Austen is about as useful an enterprise as telling the story of the Eurozone troubles in the style of Beatrix Potter. But knowing and enjoying PD James' earliest books, and sharing her love of Austen, I was very hopeful. As it happens, PD James abandons Austen-speak immediately after the Prologue and never recovers it, illustrating perhaps the imperishable brilliance of the original.
The result is a very dull and predictable story of detection with white soup and crinolines, hamstrung by the presence of so many characters above suspicion: the murderer therefore being signposted from early on.
I kept hoping for the appearance of some passing Lakeland poet, one Master Ebenezer Dalgliesh, to rattle the Pemberley shades. No such luck. It made me sad.
I can see from the Publishers' point of view that when a fine and profitable author sets off on an unexpected route, they may have little choice other than to follow and try to make it work. But in that case, why no proper copy-editing, which would have removed the several absurd repetitions and, for example, the strange situation on p81 when Darcy is placed in 2 separate parts of the house - at the same time?
The interpolation of characters from Emma and Persuasion was particularly ill-judged.
Let's hope we may escape 'The Massacre at Mansfield Park'.
Oh,how wrong can a poor boy be!
After an amusing and breezy prologue which introduced the main protagonists and filled in the interim between Austen's conclusion and James' commencement, the book hit the buffers.From the start,Darcy and Elizabeth were transformed into a cross between the Oxo Couple (Katy and Phillip?)and the Glums,Darcy having lost most of his haughty confidence and Elizabeth her feisty wit.The Pemberley they are given here had curiously been translated into an early nineteenth century version of "Downton Abbey" where servants held the stage alongside their crushingly boring employers in a way that I can't remember them doing in any of the Austen that I've read.The "crime" element is feeble where it isn't farcical.From time to time,the author also treats us to lectures on various aspects of the society of the time which suggest both a low opinion of the knowledge of her readers and a lack of skill in historical scene-setting.Somehow Austen managed to give us all we need to know about her world without getting out the history books and hitting us over the head with them.
In short,"Death at Pemberley" could most charitably be described as a damp squib.I wanted to like it because I admire P.D.Read more ›
This book was truly awful, and it is hard to believe it would have been published if not for the successful authors name attached.
There is no character development at all, in fact the characters are as two dimensional as a photograph. None of the wit and sparkle one gets in the original Austen, but no suspense or drama worth speaking of on the crime writing side either.
If this had been a young writers first attempt, I would have said well done, and maybe in a few years with a lot of work you will amount to something.
To be honest it reads like a set of notes on which one might develop a novel; as if the writer roughly sketched some story ideas, and then could not be bothered to actually turn it into a novel.
Waste your money on it if you want, but I wouldn't bother if I were you.
Sadly, no. No wit, no social commentary, no sparkling dialogue, no self-examination. The characters were unrecognisable, and there was no sense of their development. This book at times reads only like a badly-written precis of the original--the epilogue, especially, resembled a re-hash of Darcy's previous thoughts about his courtship--would he really be obsessing about this six years in the future? It is hard to imagine that anyone would read this if they were not familiar with Austen, so why tediously re-tell the original plot (unless of course it is a space-filler--the thought did cross my mind).
I was sadly disappointed by this book. As a crime novel it was predictable and dull, as an Austen tribute clumsy and unsophisticated. I find it hard to believe the ecstatic reviewers here actually read the same text as I did. Please, gentle reader, don't be fooled. Save your money and buy one of James's other (excellent books). Oh that the shades of Pemberley should be thus polluted!

UPDATE: This is the author speaking. I'd just like to say that I believe both machines are GREAT. I think I gave everybody the wrong impression- the Vita's got some (awesome!) stuff under the hood- it's just that I think the Wikipad does some things better than the Vita, and that it has some advantages. At the same time, the Vita's clearly going to have more polished releases unless the Android Market gets cleaned up- a LOT.

Product Description
There are three crucial elements for a great Walker episode: A particularly vile villain (drug dealers, rapists, baby-stealing politicians), coolly delivered Chuck-isms ("When I want your opinion, I'll beat it out of you," reprised from the great Code of Silence), and, to quote Jimmy Trivette (Clarence Gilyard), Walker's new, more by-the-book partner, the "squinty-eyed make-my-day stuff" that Walker punishingly dispenses near the 40-minute mark of nearly every episode. When you've got Chuck Norris, you don't need A-list guest stars, but Walker's first season does feature some familiar faces, including the future Spider-Man Tobey Maguire ("The Prodigal Son"), Stuart Whitman ("The Reunion"), and a post-Wonder Years Danica "Winnie" McKellar ("Stolen Lullaby"). Norris may not be Oscar or Emmy material, but watching Walker unfailingly lay out the bad guys and making the guilty pay is the essence of comfort television. As Trivette says, "I hate to admit; the man is good." In short: don't mess with Texas! --Donald Liebenson

However: Never, ever, ever sign a blank agreement or contract. Never.
In case my previous point is unclear, let me try again: NEVER SIGN A BLANK AGREEMENT OR CONTRACT. It doesn't matter who's presenting it. Don't do it.
Contact your Realtor's Broker as they hold your contract, not the Realtor.
Also, NEVER sign a blank contract - of ANY kind.
Shanna Rogers
SR Realty
Contracts aren't meant to be "gotcha" traps, they are meant to provide written evidence of an agreement between parties. You did not agree to the terms that the agent added to the contract, but you have to take immediate action to demonstrate your disagreement. Otherwise, a judge might think that you had agreed with the terms but were trying to back out later for some reason.
So - right now, tell the agent that they are not your agent and that you want a signed release from the company. Monday, call the manager of the office and tell them what this agent did, and ask when you can expect a signed release from the company - within an hour would be an acceptable response.
All the best,
Sorry to hear you are dealing with someone who is unethical and unprofessional!
By the way, what additions or changes did he make?
Keller Williams Realty Partners
You should call the Realtor Board that the office is a part of. Give me a call and because I want to clarify and give a little direction.
I will be tied up most of Tues morning until noon. If you reach my voicemail, leave a message letting me know a few good times to reach you back.

Thanks, Paul

DiNapoli Report Finds Future Budget Gaps
Jul 22nd - 3:33 pm
Posted by Nick Reisman in NYS Budget
A report released by Comptroller Tom DiNapoli's office on Friday raised the possibility of potential budget gaps in coming years as a result of increases in spending, tax cuts and one-shot revenue sources in the current-year spending plan.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo's Division of Budget rebuked the report, knocking the report as having ignored "key details."
The report calls in to question the fiscal soundness of the enacted 2016-17 state budget. And even with capping spending increases at a 2 percent hike — as Cuomo has sought and successfully gained since 2011 — the deficits are still likely.
Current projections show the state on average faces potential budget deficits of less than $5 billion annually over the next three fiscal years starting in 2017-18, which begins April 1.
"New York is facing the prospect of outyear budget gaps," DiNapoli said. "New York's rainy day reserves are at low levels compared to many states and the use of temporary resources to meet recurring expenses contributes to the state's potential outyear budget shortfalls. More must be done to promote long-term structural balance and ensure that taxpayers' dollars are used cost-effectively."
Education aid, one of the costliest items in the budget aside from health care, is expected to increase by 4.8 percent in the current fiscal year and grow by 5.3 percent on average over the next three fical years.
The current budget also relies on $5.9 billion in "temporary or non-recurring resources" otherwise known as "one-shot" revenue that can't be relied upon year after year.
The Division of Budget, an arm of the Cuomo administration, contested DiNapoli's findings.
"Once again the Comptroller is cherry picking data and ignoring key details in its reporting," said DOB spokesman Morris Peters. "The truth is the State's fiscal position is sound and it enjoys its highest credit rating in decades. The enacted budget held spending growth to 2% for the sixth consecutive year and the Governor's commitment to spending restraint has led to higher reserves and reliable funding for key State programs, including education and health care."

AFL-CIO Endorses Stavisky, Bailey For Senate
Jul 22nd - 2:57 pm
Posted by Nick Reisman in Democrats
The New York State AFL-CIO on Friday issued early endorsements in two state Senate races, backing Democrats Toby Ann Stavisky of Queens, an incumbent, and Jamaal Bailey, a Democrat who is seeking the Bronx-area district formerly represented by Ruth Hassell-Thompson.
At the same time, the labor group backed incumbent Assembly lawmakers Harry Bronson and Victor Pichardo.
Bronson is facing a closely watched primary from Rachel Barnhart, a former TV reporter in Rochester.
All of the candidates backed today by the AFL-CIO are facing primaries on Sept. 13.
"All of these candidates understand the priorities of the 2.5 million hardworking men and women of the NYS AFL-CIO," said AFL-CIO President Mario Cilento. "They are committed to fighting hard for issues important to middle class families.
"With our early endorsements in place, we can now begin a grassroots campaign to get our members to the polls to ensure our endorsed candidates, and in turn an agenda that prioritizes the creation of solid middle class jobs and supports the vital public services all New Yorkers depend on, are successful." added Cilento.
After Unpredictable Convention, GOP Insists Its Unified
Jul 22nd - 6:45 am
Posted by Nick Reisman in Republicans
From the Morning Memo:
It was a rollicking and unpredictable convention in Cleveland for national Republicans.
After a week that included charges of plagiarized speeches and a non-endorsement from the nominee's former rival, New York GOP officials insisted the party is unified.
"Any convention is about unity," said Sen. Tom O'Mara, a Republican from the Elmira area. "Everyone here from across the country has been fantastic. The convention has been fantastic. It's all about coming together."
But the remarks by Senator Ted Cruz this week highlighted fissures within the party nationally as well in New York, whose delegation included enthusiastic boosters of Donald Trump. State Republican Chairman Ed Cox had hesitated in endorsing Trump, but now is on board.
"No, it's a problem with Ted Cruz," said State Chairman Ed Cox, "and it's his own problem."
Other Republicans leaders agreed the issue isn't with broad unity, but with Cruz himself.
"I think it's an outlier, ultimately," said Broome County Chairman Bijoy Datta. "I've talked to people all over the country over the course of this week and everyone is lining up behind Mr. Trump. He won the nomination, he won the primary. He got the official nod this week."
Still, a number of Republicans from New York stayed away from the convention and some remain hesitant to embrace Trump's candidacy. Assembly Minority Leader Brian Kolb says the unifying personality may ultimately be the presumed Democratic nominee, Hillary Clinton.
"The race is being Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton," said Brian Kolb, the minority leader of the state Assembly. "That's the choice that voters are going to have across this country in November. That's really anyone who has supported John Kasich or Marco Rubio or whomever, has to realize this is the race we are now dealing with."
Democrats meet next week in Philadelphia and have their own primary wounds to close following a brutal primary contest between those who backed Clinton and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.
WFP Fundraises Off Flanagan's Trump Endorsement
Jul 22nd - 6:15 am
Posted by Nick Reisman in Democrats
From the Morning Memo:
The labor-backed Working Families Party wasted little time in blasting out a fundraising email pointing to Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan's backing on Thursday of Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
The email is a harbinger of what is expected to be a pitched battle over control of the Republican-led Senate this year, with the presidential campaign between Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton playing a major, over-arching role.
Flanagan on Thursday at a breakfast meeting of the New York delegation in Cleveland reiterated his endorsement of Trump, but provided his most extensive comments to date supporting the party's nominee.
"I'm going to make this unequivocally clear," Flanagan said. "I'm supporting Donald Trump for president. I'm going to do so with grace, with diplomacy, with passion and with fervor."
For the WFP, that's not compatible.
"There is no way you can support a campaign based on racism, xenophobia, fear, and misogyny with 'grace,'" the fundraising email states.
"There is no way you can support one of the most vulgar and uniquely unsuited and unqualified candidates ever to run for the office of President with 'diplomacy.' And there is no way you can credibly claim to represent our state if you fervently back a candidate who stands against so many of the values we all share as New Yorkers."
Asking supporters for a $3 donation, the WFP says the election will be a key one for Senate control.
"For years, Senate Republicans have been one of the main obstacles to progress on some of the issues working families care most about, like fair elections, the DREAM Act, reforming our broken criminal justice system, and fighting climate change," the email states.
"Now, they are showing their true colors by fully embracing a hateful, racist presidential campaign powered by fear."
Senate Democrats this election cycle hope to compete in battleground races on Long Island and in the Hudson Valley. But Republicans are also playing offense in swing districts in western New York and in Westchester County.

Good morning from Cleveland! It's a travel day for the Capital Tonight team as we head back to Albany this morning after spending the last four days here covering the Republican National Convention.
But there's going to be little down time as we head to Philadelphia on Sunday to cover the Democratic National Convention. Stick with us for continued coverage of that and the New York Democratic delegation.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo is in New York City and has nothing public planned.
At 9:30 a.m., Commissioner Basil Seggos and New York State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services Representatives will announce the start of 'Operation Clear Passage', a three-day, multi-agency Homeland Security exercise and water quality/navigational-boating enforcement event on Lake Champlain, Treadwell Bay Marina, 214 Bouchard Drive, Plattsburgh, NY 12901, west shore of Lake Champlain.

At 11 a.m., Hochul will tout investments and an increase in tourism in New York. Niagara Falls State Park, Goat Island Carriage Complex, 332 Prospect Street, Niagara Falls
Donald Trump accepted the Republican nomination for president of the United States on Thursday, capping an unlikely and unpredictable year since he announced his candidacy.
Trump's nominating speech for some pundits struck a dark, fear-based tone, warning that in a world of terrorism and violence, a strong leader is needed.
Trump pledged to be a "law and order" president and is the only person equipped to handle an increasingly dangerous world for the United States.
Trump's speech "conjured up chaos and promised overnight solutions" but failed to escape his own caricature.
The remarks by the New York businessman "could mark the start of an American revival."
The speech was also an attack on Hillary Clinton and the very political establishment Trump upended over the last 400-plus days of his campaign.
A fact check of Trump's speech reveals some… issues with reality.

Silicon Valley investor Peter Thiel tells the RNC — to cheers — that he's proud to be gay.
Thiel's speech was an especially strange one for Gawker, considering he helped fund a lawsuit against the online news site after a story outed him.
Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani questioned Clinton's feminist credentials in a speech to New York Republicans at their daily delegation breakfast.
New York's delegation, sitting front and center for the RNC at the Q, have been the most vocal and boisterous supporters for Trump during the last week.
Sen. Ted Cruz faced a sharply divided delegation from his home state of Texas after he refused to endorse Trump in his convention speech on Wednesday night.
Overall, it was a convention in which Republicans may have been divided on policy and ideology, but not when it comes to take on Clinton.
While the RNC this year may have had its ups and downs, the mistakes are unlikely to doom Trump's campaign.
Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine has emerged as the heavy favorite to join Clinton on the Democratic ticket as the vice presidential candidate.
Liberals within the Democratic Party are not happy with the potential selection of Kaine, as they had hoped for a more left-leaning running mate, like Sens. Elizabeth Warren or Sherrod Brown.
Another name floated for the ticket is Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack, a one-time presidential candidate and former governor of Iowa.
Either way, Clinton's VP selection process is pretty much down to the wire, and a final pick, plus announcement could come by today or Saturday.
At least four potential Republican gubernatorial wannabes were roaming the convention hall in Cleveland over the last several days.
New York state Republicans say the party needs to be more inclusive of minorities, but they don't believe Trump's more passionate rhetoric is a problem for the GOP.
Outside the arena and among the many demonstrations and protests has been dirty tricks operative Roger Stone and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones holding court.

Day 4 – the final day of the 2016 Republican National Convention, which will bring us to the coup de grace of this entire event: Donald Trump's formal acceptance of the GOP presidential nomination.
It's not going too far to say this is the most important moment of Trump's political career, a moment that could significantly alter the course of his general election battle with the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, Hillary Clinton.
Trump will be introduced by his daughter, Ivanka, a frequent campaign trail for her father and the final adult Trump child to be speaking at the convention.
We haven't seen his youngest child, 10-year-old Baron, who is Trump's son with his third wife, Melania, but he might make a post-speech appearance, as it's traditional for the entire family to join a nominee on stage for the big balloon drop.
And yes, there are balloons, which are a convention standby. Some traditions are indeed being preserved here at this unconventional convention. How Trump plans to top his Day 1 reveal – with fog machines pumping and Queen's "We Are the Champions" blaring over the speakers – remains to be seen.
Also we'll see how Trump plans to take back the narrative and top off a convention that has been marked by controversy and upheaval. Will he go into more detail about his various policy proposals? Will he deliver a message of unity from the stage? Or will he continue to be defiant and divisive, belittling his critics and those who continue to have reservations about his candidacy.
Here are some headlines to peruse while we await the final show…
Just hours before accepting the preisdential nomination, Donald Trump taunted his party during a speech to top donors, ripping into his rivals and joking that, had he run as an independent, he could have defeated the GOP.
Trump's speech needs to be the performance of a lifetime. It will cap off a convention that has so far been a rolling disaster of infighting and poor planning – all playing out on the national stage at a time he desperately needs a boost to compete against Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton.
Clinton, the presumptive Democratic nominee, has featured at least as prominently at the convention so far as Trump. For a convention that's supposed to be all about the GOP nominee, his opponent is getting more than her share of the attention.
Onondaga County GOP Chairman Tom Dadey said he feels like "a little kid on Christmas Eve" ahead of Trump's big moment, adding: ""I can't wait to see him tonight. I'm ecstatic."
Speaking to his home state delegation this morning, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz pointedly and repeatedly refused to endorse Trump, saying that he was not "a servile puppy dog."
Donald Trump Jr. said his father does not need Cruz's endorsement going into the general election. "We got it de facto from the people that matter," he told CNN's Erin Burnett. "Those are the voters the people that my father has been speaking to directly. The hardworking people in this country that have been left in the dust."
"The New York delegation was engaged in a way I've never seen," said Rep. Tom Reed, a Corning Republican who joined in the "Endorse Trump" chants of Cruz's speech last night. "The boos kept getting louder. There was just more and more energy."
The guest lists for six suites at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland this week offer a peek into the VIP access enjoyed by the party's most important financiers.
The Trump campaign's sharp attacks against Ohio Gov. John Kasich this week may have imperiled a crucial behind-the-scenes effort to build out the Republican nominee's meager operation in the battleground state.
Trump and Clinton are deadlocked in Ohio, according to a new Suffolk University poll that shows the crucial state very much in play.
Trump's campaign says it set a new record for its money-raising effort, garnering $3.5m from online fundraising today. Also, Trump fulfilled his promise to forgive the $47.5m he loaned his presidential campaign on the way to securing the GOP nomination.
Ivanka Trump sent out a fundraising appeal on her father's behalf hours before her big convention appearance introducing his acceptance speech.
Trump may be the nominee, but here in Cleveland, his children are the attraction.
Former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani misstated Clinton's home town by several hundred miles during his speech to the NY delegation, saying she lives in Chappaquiddick (Massachusetts), not Chappaqua (Westchester County).
21st Century Fox today announced that Roger Ailes, Chairman and CEO of Fox News Channel and Fox Business Network, and Chairman of Fox Television Stations, has resigned from his role effective immediately.
Sen. Al Franken of Minnesota – a comedian-turned-politician – traveled to Cleveland to deliver a few jabs to the Donald Trump-Mike Pence ticket, while another Democratic senator, Cory Booker of New Jersey, made the case for fighting with love.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo has signed legislation to exempt feminine hygiene products from sales and use taxes. The bill, dubbed the "tampon tax" bill, passed with broad support at the end of May.
Also signed into law by the governor: a bill that gives state employees up to four hours each year to receive prostate cancer exams. Previously, only those outside of New York City were offered paid leave.

The chair of the Assembly Energy Committee, Amy Paulin of Westchester, is questioning the Cuomo administration's plan to subsidize upstate nuclear reactors and its potential cost to New York residents.

Paladino: Cruz Can Mow The Lawn At The White House
Jul 21st - 5:09 pm
Posted by Nick Reisman in Republicans
Republican Carl Paladino, the co-chairman of the state campaign co-chairman for Donald Trump, blasted an email out Thursday afternoon with a meme suggesting Sen. Ted Cruz would mow the lawn at a Trump White House.
"After I move into the White House," the image states. "I'll hire you to mow the lawn."
At the same time, Paladino included this text:
"He could have blown the roof off the building, attained statesman status and be appointed to the Supreme Court in January but he chose to implode with self love and be one of those timid souls who knows neither victory or defeat."
Cruz drew the ire of Republicans at the convention in Cleveland on Wednesday and into today when he refused to endorse Trump in his speech.
The image calls to mind the stereotype of Hispanic landscapers and gardeners; Cruz is of Cuban descent.
The former Republican nominee for governor in 2010 has had a history of making racially tinged comments and jokes, most recently tweeting "Lynch Loretta Lynch" — a post Paladino said was sent in error by an assistant.
Cuomo Signs Hoosick Falls Legislation
Jul 21st - 4:31 pm
Posted by Nick Reisman in Andrew Cuomo
Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed a bill on Thursday that would make it easier for those who live near Superfund-designated sites to sue over water contamination.
The measure was approved in the GOP-led Senate in the final days of the legislative session in the wake of a drinking water contamination in Hoosick Falls.
The new law will also impact those who live in Petersburgh, where a separate chemical contamination in drinking water has been found.
Cuomo's approval of the bill is good news for Republican Sen. Kathy Marchione, the lawmaker who represents the area in the chamber.
Marchione had been under pressure from Hoosick Falls residents to push for a Senate hearing on the contamination issue. Ultimately, Republicans announced a public hearing in the village next month.
Assembly Democrats have scheduled hearings for September on water quality issues in New York, to be held in Albany and on Long Island.
"This new state law means residents in Hoosick Falls, Petersburgh and elsewhere will now receive more time to have their day in court and fully pursue civil justice," Marchione said in a statement. "I am thankful for the support our bill has received and that it will become law."
Democratic Assemblyman John McDonald, who backed the measure in his house, called the approval a bipartisan victory.
"The far-reaching impact of this legislation will bring fair and resolute legal recourses to members of the Hoosick Falls community and to New Yorkers across the state that have suffered or may suffer from undetected toxins in their water supply," he said.
Cuomo's approval of the bill, which removes the statute of limitations for lawsuits to be filed in water contamination sites, comes as a Republican-led oversight committee in the House of Representatives is investigating the federal and state response to the issue.
Cuomo's office sought and received a deadline extension for turning over documents related to the contamination.
The bill's approval was also cheered by environmental organizations.
"The signing of this bill into law is not only a huge moral and legal victory for Hoosick Falls and Petersburgh residents, but an important step in holding polluters accountable," said Liz Moran of the Environmental Advocates of New York. "For too long, when crises like this occurred, residents were left reeling from the public health and economic consequences, while those responsible were allowed to slink away."
Six NYers To Speak At DNC
Jul 21st - 2:55 pm
Posted by Nick Reisman in Andrew Cuomo
A half dozen New York Democratic elected officials are scheduled to speak at the party's national convention next week in Philadelphia.
Convention planners on Thursday announced the slate of speakers, which will including Gov. Andrew Cuomo and his rival, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio as well as the state's two junior and senior U.S. senators, Kirsten Gillibrand and Chuck Schumer.
Two House members, Reps. Nita Lowey of Westchester County and Joe Crowley of Queens, are also due to speak at the convention.
Cuomo kept a relatively low profile at the last Democratic National Convention in 2012 held in Charlotte, staying for less than a full day and not holding a speaking role (He did attend the last night to watch President Obama speak).
This year, Cuomo will chair the New York state delegation to the convention, which is due to nominate Hillary Clinton for the presidency.
Giuliani To Hillary: 'We're Going To Kill You In Upstate New York'

Add former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani to the list of prominent New York Republicans who think Donald Trump can win Democratic-heavy New York.
Giuliani, speaking to the Republican delegation breakfast on Thursday morning, said Trump's chances of a victory are especially good in the upstate region, which has more GOP voters per capita.
"We've got some pretty good surrogates for him in New York and we are not going to give up New York," Giuliani said, his hoarse voice increasingly rising. "Hillary, we are going to kill you in upstate New York. You are finished. Hillary, you are finished in Nassau and Suffolk and Westchester and Putnam and Orange."
Polls have shown Clinton, a former U.S. senator from New York who moved to state in 2000, leading Trump by double digit percentage points.
Giuliani also made a plea for allowing high-volume hydrofracking in the state, saying it would restore upstate New York's industrial might.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo's administration moved to ban the natural gas extraction process in 2014, but Giuliani did not mention the governor by name.
"How about putting people back to work with tracking, hydraulic drilling? How about we rebuild upstate New York the way it used to be, one of the great industrial capitals of the world," he said.
"God has put the resources in our Earth to do it. Pennsylvania is doing it and they did it under a Democratic governor, Ed Rendell. He cared about his people more than he cared about out of the control environmentalists."
