Eternal "Wartime" in America
by Tom Engelhardt
I recently dug my mother's childhood photo album out of the depths of my bedroom closet. When I opened it, I found that the glue she had used as a girl to paste her life in place had given way, and on many pages the photos were now in a jumble. My mother was born early in the last century. Today, for most of that ancient collection of photos and memorabilia — drawings (undoubtedly hers), a Caruthers School of Piano program, a Camp Weewan-Eeta brochure, a Hyde Park High School junior prom "senior ticket," and photos of unknown boys, girls, and adults — there's no one left to tell me who was who or what was what. In some of them, I can still recognize my mother's youthful face, and that of her brother who died so long ago but remains quite recognizable (even so many decades before I knew […]
The Unyielding Grip of Fossil Fuels on Global Life
by Michael Klare
Here's the good news: wind power, solar power, and other renewable forms of energy are expanding far more quickly than anyone expected, ensuring that these systems will provide an ever-increasing share of our future energy supply. According to the most recent projections from the Energy Information Administration (EIA) of the U.S. Department of Energy, global consumption of wind, solar, hydropower, and other renewables will double between now and 2040, jumping from 64 to 131 quadrillion British thermal units (BTUs). And here's the bad news: the consumption of oil, coal, and natural gas is also growing, making it likely that, whatever the advances of renewable energy, fossil fuels will continue to dominate the global landscape for decades to come, accelerating the pace of global warming and ensuring the intensification of climate-change catastrophes. The rapid growth of renewable energy has given us much to cheer about. Not so long ago, energy analysts […]
Life on an Increasingly Improbable Planet
by Tom Engelhardt
Vladimir Putin recently manned up and admitted it. The United States remains the planet's sole superpower, as it has been since the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991. "America," the Russian president said, "is a great power. Today, probably, the only superpower. We accept that." Think of us, in fact, as the default superpower in an ever more recalcitrant world. Seventy-five years ago, at the edge of a global conflagration among rival great powers and empires, Henry Luce first suggested that the next century could be ours. In February 1941, in his magazine LIFE, he wrote a famous essay entitled "The American Century." In it, he proclaimed that if only Americans would think internationally, surge into the world, and accept that they were already at war, the next hundred years would be theirs. Just over nine months later, the Japanese attacked the U.S. fleet at Pearl Harbor, plunging the country into […]

The New York Times featured a profile of Viggo Mortensen who stars in the new movie 'Captain Fantastic.' His character Ben Cash "a former college professor raising his six children in a yurt somewhere in the woodsy Pacific Northwest… For transportation, they have an old hippie school bus, and instead of Christmas they celebrate Noam Chomsky Day… It's hard to imagine a part tapping more deeply into the inner Viggo. Mr. Mortensen is himself not a back-to-the woods survivalist, exactly, but he knows his Chomsky and lives about as far off the grid as a major movie star can and still get work." In 2008, Viggo Mortensen, narrated the trailer for the graphic novel edition of Howard Zinn's 'A People's History of American Empire': Watch the trailer for 'Captain Fantastic': Learn more about "Gnome" Chomsky's!

The Charmed Life of David Petraeus
by Nick Turse
I ran into David Petraeus the other night. Or rather, I ran after him. It's been more than a year since I first tried to connect with the retired four-star general and ex-CIA director — and no luck yet. On a recent evening, as the sky was turning from a crisp ice blue into a host of Easter-egg hues, I missed him again. Led from a curtained "backstage" area where he had retreated after a midtown Manhattan event, Petraeus moved briskly to a staff-only room, then into a tightly packed elevator, and momentarily out onto the street before being quickly ushered into a waiting late-model, black Mercedes S550. And then he was gone, whisked into the warm New York night, companions in tow. For the previous hour, Petraeus had been in conversation with Peter Bergen, a journalist, CNN analyst, and vice president at New America, the think tank sponsoring the […]
The Influence of Influence in Washington
by Thomas Frank
Although it's difficult to remember those days eight years ago when Democrats seemed to represent something idealistic and hopeful and brave, let's take a moment and try to recall the stand Barack Obama once took against lobbyists. Those were the days when the nation was learning that George W. Bush's Washington was, essentially, just a big playground for those lobbyists and that every government operation had been opened to the power of money. Righteous disgust filled the air. "Special interests" were much denounced. And a certain inspiring senator from Illinois promised that, should he be elected president, his administration would contain no lobbyists at all. The revolving door between government and K Street, he assured us, would turn no more. Instead, the nation got a lesson in all the other ways that "special interests" can get what they want — like simple class solidarity between the Ivy Leaguers who advise […]

Thomas Frank is a historian and writer. He is also the man who tried to save the Democratic Party and our Nation from great harm. He is the great chronicler of one of the most grievous, self-inflicted wounds in modern American history. Twelve years ago, in What's the Matter with Kansas? How Conservatives Won the Heart of America, Frank tried to warn the Democratic Party's dominant elites' that their policies and contempt for workers were pushing a large part of its base out of the Party. Many of the workers that were the Democratic Party's traditional base were leaving the Party and failing to participate in elections, but some were supporting the far-right wing of the Republican Party. At the national level, the New Democrats' candidates remained highly competitive, but the Republican Party was able to attain complete political domination of most states. This year, Frank renewed his warnings in […]
AFRICOM Clams Up After Commander Peddles Contradictory Statements to Congress
by Nick Turse
General David Rodriguez might be a modern military celebrity — if he hadn't spent his career ducking the spotlight. After graduating from West Point in 1976, he began his long march up the chain of command, serving in Operation Just Cause (the U.S. invasion of Panama) and Operation Desert Storm (Iraq War 1.0) before becoming deputy commander of United States Forces, Afghanistan, and commander of the International Security Assistance Force-Joint Command in 2009. In 2011, the 6'5" former paratrooper received his fourth star and two years later the coveted helm of one of the Defense Department's six geographic combatant commands, becoming the third chief of U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM). Rodriguez has held that post ever since, overseeing a colossal American military expansion on that continent. During his tenure, AFRICOM has grown in every conceivable way, from outposts to manpower. In the process, Africa has become a key hub for shadowy […]
Keeping the Money Flowing
by Andrew Cockburn
These days, lamenting the apparently aimless character of Washington's military operations in the Greater Middle East has become conventional wisdom among administration critics of every sort. Senator John McCain thunders that "this president has no strategy to successfully reverse the tide of slaughter and mayhem" in that region. Anthony Cordesman of the Center for Strategic and International Studies bemoans the "lack of a viable and public strategy." Andrew Bacevich suggests that "there is no strategy. None. Zilch." After 15 years of grinding war with no obvious end in sight, U.S. military operations certainly deserve such obloquy. But the pundit outrage may be misplaced. Focusing on Washington rather than on distant war zones, it becomes clear that the military establishment does indeed have a strategy, a highly successful one, which is to protect and enhance its own prosperity. Given this focus, creating and maintaining an effective fighting force becomes a secondary […]
Millions of Women See Through Him, Even If the Media Don't
by Ann Jones
Last fall, when presidential wannabe Donald Trump famously boasted on CNN that he would "be the best thing that ever happened to women," some may have fallen for it. Millions of women, however, reacted with laughter, irritation, disgust, and no little nausea. For while the media generate a daily fog of Trumpisms, speculating upon the meaning and implications of the man's every incoherent utterance, a great many women, schooled by experience, can see right through the petty tyrant and his nasty bag of tricks. By March, the often hard-earned wisdom of such women was reflected in a raft of public opinion polls in which an extraordinary number of female voters registered an "unfavorable" or "negative" impression of the Republican Party's presumptive nominee. Reporting on Trump's "rock-bottom ratings" with prospective women voters, Politico termed the unfavorable poll numbers — 67% (Fox News), 67% (Quinnipiac University), 70% (NBC/Wall Street Journal), 73% (ABC/Washington […]

Sue Gerhardt provides a follow-up to the 60 Minutes "Born Good?" program, looking at the challenges in being empathetic outside of familiar social interaction.
Born Good? challenged the dominant cultural idea that we are born selfish and individualistic. But although it established that we are an innately social and co-operative species, it also hinted at our limitations. In another experiment shown in the programme, young children were clearly not interested in helping unknown (and unseen) strangers. Extending helpfulness to those beyond our in-group probably doesn't come so naturally. So perhaps this alerts us to the need to actively promote empathy, with programmes such as Mary Gordon's Roots of Empathy in schools (now spreading here to the UK).

The Facts is the unconventional autobiography of a writer who has reshaped our idea of fiction—a work of compelling candor and inventiveness, instructive particularly in its revelation of the interplay between life and art.
Philip Roth concentrates on five episodes from his life: his secure city childhood in the thirties and forties; his education in American life at a conventional college; his passionate entanglement, as an ambitious young man, with the angriest person he ever met (the "girl of my dreams" Roth calls her); his clash, as a fledgling writer, with a Jewish establishment outraged by Goodbye, Columbus; and his discovery, in the excesses of the sixties, of an unmined side to his talent that led him to write Portnoy's Complaint.
The book concludes surprisingly—in true Rothian fashion—with a sustained assault by the novelist against his proficiencies as an autobiographer.
About the Author
Philip Roth was born in New Jersey in 1933. He studied literature at Bucknell University and the University of Chicago. His first book, "Goodbye, Columbus", won the National Book Award for Fiction in 1960. He has lived in Rome, London, Chicago, New York City, Princeton, and New England. Since 1955, he has been on the faculties of the University of Chicago, Princeton University, and the University of Pennsylvania, where he is now Adjunct Professor of English. He is also General Editor of the Penguin Books series "Writers from the Other Europe." Recently he has been spending half of each year in Europe, traveling and writing.
Praise For…
"The Facts is a lively and serious version of a novelist's life." —Thomas R. Edwards, New York Review of Books
"A fine account of the origins of Roth's fiction—Philip Roth continues to be the most vigorous and truthful of American writers." —Phyllis Rose, Newsday

Thieves, fires and more: Holidays can be full of dangers
Thieves taking Christmas gift deliveries from porches; house fires caused by holiday cooking or a tree or decoration; these are just some of the hazards of the holiday season.

Auto insurance is meant to soften the financial blow of accidents and other vehicle mishaps, but according to a new study, these policies come with their own set of atrocious fees for anyone who hopes to actually use the insurance they've been paying for.
Almost 90 percent of the companies that participated in the 2014 New Jersey Business and Industry Association (NJBIA) Health Benefits Survey said they continue to offer healthcare coverage to their employees, despite the fact that 85 percent of them reported their healthcare costs have increased in the past year.
A new study by the The Mental Health Association in New Jersey (MHANJ) finds access to psychiatric care to be inadequate in New Jersey.
New Jersey consumers who bundle their auto and home insurance coverage from the same company receive an average discount of $283 per year according to a survey released Wednesday by insuranceQuotes.com.
Two Colts Neck brothers are accused of masterminding a complex insurance scam which brought in millions of dollars.
A doctor, a lawyer and two chiropractors are among 12 people facing charges stemming what authorities say was a scheme in New Jersey to recruit motor vehicle accident victims as patients.
The colder and snowier the winter, the busier insurance companies tend to get. Winter weather is normally the third-leading cause of losses, behind hurricanes and tornadoes.
A new survey finds an underused auto insurance program may be able to save you some money.
It's a complaint that's growing increasingly common - New Jersey residents seeking mental health treatment finding out their insurance does not cover what they thought it would cover.

Windows 8.1 Update available now, here's how to update your computer
The Microsoft Windows 8.1 Update was released 8 April, bringing with it a host of new features for Windows 8.1 users. Better task switching and a more keyboard friendly Start Screen are just two.
The update is free and available to anyone running Windows 8 or Windows 8.1, and like the update from Windows 8 to 8.1, you'll get this update from the Windows Store or automatically via the usual update channels on your PC.
READ: Microsoft unveils Windows 8.1 Update, here's what's new
The system requirements for Windows 8.1 Update are virtually the same as the requirements for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1, and if your PC is already running either you should be fine. It isn't a drastic overhaul of the OS, but there are changes.
A good reason to update, or maybe two...
Your desktop becomes more important again if you are using Windows 8.1 Update on a laptop as it automatically boots to the desktop for all non-tablet users, and Microsoft is going to require all Windows 8.1 users to have Windows 8.1 Update installed if they plan to continue to download any security or feature updates to the operating system.
Preparing for the update
For the majority of Windows 8.1 users, you will receive the update automatically. If you are still on Windows 8, you can get the Windows 8.1 Update via the Windows Store on 8 April as well.
You shouldn't have to worry, but it is probably best to make sure your important files are backed up and ready to go. If you are updating from Windows 8 your existing Windows Store apps don't come with you when you update to Windows 8.1 Update. But once the update is complete, you can reinstall all of these apps at once, or just the ones you want if you fancy using the install as a chance to have a spring clean.
Microsoft says that while download and installation times vary from about 30 minutes to several hours, depending on your internet connection speed, it all happens in the background until everything is ready to go.
When it is ready your system will restart and be unusable for about 20 minutes to an hour. If you've got that important PowerPoint presentation in the works, make sure you save it before you walk away from your computer.
If you are coming from Windows 8, you'll need about 3GB of space to install Windows 8.1 Update and Microsoft recommends you connect your computer to a power source and an internet connection while you do the update.
The Windows 8.1 Update update
Go to the Start Screen, tap on the Store tile and then click on the Windows 8.1 Update update when it becomes available. Tap or click to download and off you go.
Unless you really want to feel like you are in control of everything, opt for the express settings. Run through the update and you are done.
The end result and noticeable changes to look out for
Windows 8.1 Update does bring some new features, and some noticeable changes to the behaviour of your PC. Previously on a Windows 8.1 powered tablet, closing an app would take you back to the Start Screen, now closing the app will take you to the previously used app.
READ: Windows 8.1 Update: What's new
For desktop users there are more changes to default behaviour. After the Window 8.1 Update your computer will boot to the Desktop instead of the start screen, closing an app takes you to the previously used app and closing all apps takes you to the desktop. Pictures, music and video files all open with desktop applications rather than the Modern app.
What you don't get
You won't get the new Start menu that was announced at the Build conference at the start of April. That, says Microsoft, will come in a future further update. Yes, you will have to update the update at a later time.

Former Minn. officer 'saved lives' during Colo. church rampage
By Electa Draper
The Denver Post
Read the P1 News Report: Colo. police name suspect in church rampages
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Amid deafening cracks of gunfire, smoke-spewing canisters and the flight of thousands of New Life Church members, Jeanne Assam said God was with her when she shot the gunman and helped her prevent more lives from being lost.
"I saw him, it seemed like the halls cleared out, and I saw him coming through the doors, and I took cover. And I waited for him to get closer. And I came out of cover. And I identified myself. And I engaged him and I took him down," the 42-year-old volunteer church security guard and former law officer said Monday at a news conference in the Colorado Springs police station. "I didn't think it was my sole responsibility. I didn't think about this. It was — it seemed like it was me, the gunman and God."

I have to say this was the worst place we've ever stayed at. When looking around at the outside of the motel, you could see that the lining in the curtains were ripped/tattered in every room, giving the appearance that an episode of CSI was going to be filmed here and we might be the victims. The gentleman that checked us in was very friendly. Upon arriving in our room, we found a flat screen TV. However, the bathroom was small, not clean, and the tub area had the plastic scratched up and patched (what happened in there?). I killed a spider crawling across my kids' bed. Needless to say, I couldn't sleep well at all. The door didn't feel very secure, even after we used the chain. The curtains would not stay completely shut. We did not feel safe. The train is right next to the motel and yes, it did come through in the wee hours of the morning, waking us up. We did not hear any street traffic, though, as other reviewers had mentioned. The outdoor pool area was crumbling (and did not look as nice as the pictures shown) and I wondered how the pool even retained water. But, my kids did have fun in it. To top it all off, the guy painting the upstairs walkway above our room, got paint drops splattered all over my vehicle. By the time morning came, we weren't brave enough to try the breakfast. Although this was a "budget", we will not be coming back to this motel.

Spent most of my childhood and adult life in Toledo. Went to TOSU for 3 semesters before I had to come back home for personal/family reasons. Finished my degree at University of Toledo, but I will always be a Buckeye. I've been living in Austin, TX for the past 6 years as a result of work relocation.
- SPORTS MOMENT: Being at the inaugural College Football Championship game in Dallas on January 12th, 2014 and witnessing Ohio State win it all. Every moment of that game from pregame to kickoff to the team celebration afterwards. Me being there was quite simply the best sports moment of my life.

I get that in the end, the only thing that matters is how each of these young men perform on the field and in class, and not the rankings, but you've gotta appreciate the irony in this just a bit.
This speaks highly about how these kids gravitate to playing for Tom Herman and his recruiting ability. That being said, I'd be shocked if Allen actually ever plays for Tom Herman as I doubt he'll still be Houston's head coach in 2017. If Allen wants to play for Herman, he should transfer to Texas.
I thought about that, and honestly in the end I think that with less options, the offense will function more efficiently with less skill guys on the team demanding touches-without significant injuries of course. That being said, he most likely would have been the feature weapon on offense next year (assuming Mike Thomas also declares) seeing that he'd be the most experienced WR on the roster. In the end, he probably figured that he might as well get paid to improve at the next level rather than play for free and risk injury for one more year, which is sound logic. He'll definitely get drafted in the mid-to-late rounds.
I agree. I knew he was mulling it over but I am surprised he decided to do it. With the exodus of talent on offense, I thought he'd assume to be more of a feature in the 2016 offense and get a better opportunity to showcase his skills to scouts. Either way, best of luck to that young man!
This one will remain a mystery to me for a long time. Auburn has no DC, and with the lack of experienced depth at that position next year, he would have had a really good chance to contribute early. I just don't get it. Moving focus to Rashard Lawrence, that won't be easy. Birm just tweeted that Urban has never been able to land a Louisiana recruit. And it looks like the Rashard Gary ship sailed a while ago. I don't believe the rumors I've read that Schiano puts OSU back in the fold with him. Buckeyes need to bounce back big and I'm sure Urban and co. will do just that.
"ONE-MORE-YEAR, ONE-MORE-YEAR" come on everyone let me hear it....oh well, a fan can dream. Joey Bosa is truly one of the greatest to ever play the position at OSU and he'll be sorely missed. Good thing another Bosa will be here next year to take his place. Looking forward to seeing Big Bear go first overall in the draft!
I think it's also important to point out, and I'm sure it already has been in these comments, is that both Fournette and Henry have already had a chance to shine in their premier games this season. Henry took advantage, Fournette did not. That is one reason I don't think Fournette will win. It's one thing to rack up a ton of yards against inferior competition, it's another thing to do it against great defenses. Fournette had the chance to have his true "Heisman moment" and missed it. Henry took advantage, no matter how overrated LSU and Miss St may have been. That is the best thing about Zeke's chances. He has 2-3 games against really good defenses to shine. If he is able to put up decent numbers in 2 of the remaining three games (assuming OSU gets to the BIG csg), then I think he'll have a really good chance to win the award. At this point, he has more chances left to do so then either of the other two backs. It's still considered a close race, and Zeke has the most opportunities left to separate himself. Go Bucks!
This team needs a challenge, so I am eager to see how they respond to MSU. As far as the O-Line and Farris go, the pass protection was pretty pathetic at times on Saturday, so it will be interesting to see if Urban and Warinner decide to make a personnel change mid-game if there's a repeat poor performance.
Man this is much needed good news, both because of how the bye week started and because of how decimated the secondary has been. Welcome back, young buck!
I'd like to see less designed QB runs for Cardale. I felt like last year vs Wisconsin and Bama, he was most effective only if he scrambled after he couldn't find an open receiver. This year it feels as if they've called a lot of runs for him and they have been pretty ineffective.
Birm also said this in his article about Williams' commitment "If he doesn't make an official change in his status in the next 48 hours, I think that's a great sign for the Buckeyes moving forward.". That was on October 18th, so looks like Birm was spot on if you consider that a little over 48 hours after his last statement, he reaffirms his commitment to OSU. Still a long way to go and what appears to be a few other visits, including to Alabama.
Another overreaction by members of the media. What's new? Are the Buckeye's struggling? Yes, but read ESPN Austin Ward's recent article where he compares stats from this year's team to last year's team through 5 games. Not much different other than 5 more turnovers and some red zone deficiencies. It took JT a while to get things going as well last season (and we were all complaining about the play calling and Tom Herman at that time). And I'm sure we all recall that up through the Michigan game, everyone was questioning last year's team because they weren't blowing out opponents/getting enough style points. Sound familiar? If it weren't for CJ and Zeke leading the Buckeyes to a 59-0 thumping of Wisconsin in the BIG CSG, we'd be talking about a different outcome last season. Can anyone truthfully say that if JT didn't get hurt last year, the outcome would have been the same vs Wisconsin? The difference this year is that there are still 7 games left to prove to the committee that this team can pull it together and show what all this talent can do. I'm not worried. Watch what CJ and the Bucks do to Maryland this week. And then we'll see what Cowherd and Klatt and every other "expert's" tone will be.
Does anyone have any idea what Policy Damon Webb violated to warrant his suspension? Whatever he did it must be bad and since nobody from the team is talking about it, I am starting to wonder if he'll be back on the team at all? Which would be a big blow, obviously.
I would think they'll start getting Erik Smith some reps at Nickel in practice this week so he'll at least be prepared to play that position in case Conley or Apple go out and Marshon has to step in for one of them.
Yes but the deep pass only works if Zeke is running rampant., which until the 2nd half of the IU game simply hasn't happened yet this season. I was surprised that he didn't try and take a few shots downfield late in the IU game to put it away. I think there are some trust issues with Jones because he hasn't fixed his mechanics yet, but now that it seems the O-Line is beginning to gel again and resemble last year's unit, expect them to try much harder to establish the run game early and then take some shots downfield vs Maryland. Then and only then will we know if this team has a deep threat. Of course, losing Corey Smith will make that much, much more difficult.
3 things:
1) Buckeyes will get the win
2) Buckeyes will not cover
3) I don't care about the point spread and never bet on my Buckeyes anyways.
It quite frankly surprised me that they didn't try to hit a deep ball or two late vs IU to put the game away. At that point Zeke had clearly gotten going, and to me that is what has been missing from the past 3 games before that and hence why the deep game was ineffective. to me it says that Urban just doesn't trust Jones yet. Remember vs Bama last year in the Sugar bowl, late in the 4th and up by 7, Meyer took a shot downfield to try and put the game away when Jones tried to hit Spencer deep. It almost worked too and who knows, had that been Smith instead the Buckeyes probably win that game by 14 instead of 7. After under throwing a few guys vs Western, however, we didn't really see many deep balls and again, it surprised me especially in the 2nd half after the run game was torching IU's defense. To me that is a red flag. Now, with Corey Smith out (even though he hasn't been targeted much so far this year), Zone 6 is starting to look thin at receivers capable of getting open downfield. It makes me wonder if this will affect Meyer's decision at QB, if at all. I would guess not, because Coach has made his choice and is sticking with it-rightfully so. In the end, the Bucks are winning, and while it may not be pretty all of the time, it is a win and you can't blame all of the mistakes on Cardale. He isn't responsible for all of the turnovers and penalties. These are fixable issues. Whether or not they get fixed remains to be seen, but I have faith in Urban to get it done.
Every time Marshall touches the ball, I get nervous because he's always trying to make one last move, one last effort to get a few extra yards or turn a small gain into a big play. Normally that's not a bad thing and he gets an 'A' for effort, but because of his poor history with ball security, I'm always worried he'll fumble. If you think about it, however, Coach Meyer always preaches effort-aka '4-6 seconds of relentless effort'. It seems he is okay with players making mistakes as long as they are putting in the effort. It's when they jget lazy that he has no tolerance. My question is where do you draw the line when it comes to constantly fumbling during that effort? And when a guy like Marshall is constantly leaving the ball exposed, at what point does that become part of "effort". He's so damn dynamic it is a shame that I have to hold my breath every time he is trying to make a play.
2? I think you're giving him too much credit by saying that.
While I do hope and fully expect the offense to get back to it's semi-old self on Saturday, after what has happened the past two weeks in regards to OSU not covering, I'm surprised to still see people predicting blowouts. I never bet on the Buckeyes, but if I did, I'd be hesitant to pick them to cover just yet. I hope I am wrong.
I don't mind this choice and I am not surprised by it either. I just hope that they stick with Jones for the long haul now, even if he has a few bad series, throws int's or makes some mistakes. Neither guy will ever be able to gain the confidence needed to get into a rhythm if they get yanked after a few series. I think that each of these two guys brings something unique to the offense but I think that Meyer wants the team to pick up where it left off last year, which is throwing the ball deep and running Zeke right up the gut of defensive lines, and he knows that Jones is the guy to do it, but not until the other offensive units get it together. You can't determine if you have a deep threat guy to replace Smith until the O-Line starts blocking up front and the WR's are blocking on the perimeter, because until that happens, Jones won't have enough time to let those deeper routes develop.
I know exactly which play you were referring to, and if you ask me, that showed me Cardale's leadership abilities. You have got to let your receivers know if they made a mistake when it costs you the ability to move the ball. You should note that after he gave it to Marshall about missing the route, he held out his fist for a bump. Nothing at all wrong with the way he handled the situation.
Who care's if they are still no 1. Mentally it may do them some good to drop. Perhaps it will be a wake up call. You'd think these are fixable problems with as many playmakers that are on this team (unless that itself is the problem) but the x factors here are the two new coaches on offense with Warriner calling plays and not full time w/ OLine and Beck coaching QB's. Not impressed with either in their new roles so far but still lots of time to correct.
So far, the last two games have felt like last year's VaTech game on a continuous loop. Defenses show the offense different looks and the Buckeyes unprepared. Yes, they miss Devin Smith as a deep threat and Spencer's blocking, but just go back to last year's game vs VaTech. OLine couldn't block to save lives, and therefore Barrett had no time to throw. The truth is we don't know if OSU has a deep threat because Jones or Barrett haven't really had enough time to let plays develop that much to throw deep. I felt that play calling was atrocious last year vs VaTech, and I feel the same for Hawaii and NIU. During the 3rd, OSU started to move the ball by going tempo and giving it to Zeke. They either ran power, or the counter trey (not sure, but if I have the stomach for it I'll re-watch) but the important thing is that it was successful. Did anyone forget how great the counter trey worked in the playoff run?? Then for some reason, they ditched that plan mid-drive, and OSU had to settle for a FG. Didn't see them go back to it for the rest of the game. If you are willing to re-live that nightmare, think back to that VaTech game and tell me if it wasn't the same feeling. Yes, I get it was a different defense, but the results are the same. Just my opinion and the funny thing is the only time I didn't feel I was caught in that loop was when they played VaTech this year.

GroupSmarts Helps Create Digital Memories with Introduction of MemoryMiner
TMO at Macworld - GroupSmarts Helps Create Digital Memories with Introduction of MemoryMiner
by , 11:15 AM EST, January 11th, 2006
SAN FRANCISCO -- At this week's Macworld Expo, GroupSmarts unveiled MemoryMiner, a new Mac application that enables users to link pictures, audio, video and other media to create meaningful and compelling digital stories. CEO John Fox took some time to give us a quick demonstration of what looks to be a unique way to tell digital stories.
You start using MemoryMiner by importing your photos. You can synchronize your photos with iPhoto, or import from another source. Once you complete that step, you then need to identify the subjects in the photos. They individuals in the photos can be linked to your Mac Address Book, and MemoryMiner can even update their personal icon.
You then apply a time/date stamp to the photo (which is automatic if taken from a digital source) and the location where the photo was taken. You can also attach audio, video, documents and URLs to a photo. Once you've performed these initial steps, the fun begins.
You can now create storyboards, documentaries, slideshows and scrapbooks that link people, places and time periods. These presentations become powerful tools of exploration and rediscovery of one's personal history. Visual search filters can locate photos of individuals, groups of people and locations, while allowing for the grouping and identification of specific life periods and events.
Finally, projection maps can be downloaded to plot and track the location of an individual at any given time in his or her personal history. Markers can then be plotted on the projection map, enabling users to explore the intersections of peoples' lives across the globe.
MemoryMiner is available immediately for download at www.memoryminer.com; it will function for 15 days before requiring an activation key. Pricing is normally US$60, but it is now being offered at a special introductory price of $45.

Primary Education Israel is a complex society with tensions between state and religion, and the cultural rights of jews and arabs. Notwithstanding this, the state curriculum is standardized by the ministry of education and culture who allow few exceptions. The academic year runs from september through to july 6 days a week, and the teaching medium is either Arabic or Hebrew. Education is compulsory and free (although some materials must be bought). Two years of nursery school are prescribed by law, as are the 8 years of primary education that follow. Here pupils learn the academic basics, as they prepare perhaps for the form of secondary education they may follow.

Pre-Primary education is an optional education for children between 3-5 years of age who are under the age of compulsory primary education. The purpose of this education is to ensure physical, mental and sensory development of children and the acquisition of good habits, to prepare children for primary education, to create a common atmosphere of growth for those living in inconvenient circumstances and to ensure that Turkish is spoken correct and well. Pre-school education is given in kindergartens, daycare homes, nursery classes in primary schools, and in private nurseries, all under the supervision of the Ministry. They are usually concentrated in larger towns and cities.

budding plantWhat is Budding, Its Advantages and
Basic Procedures
Budding, oftenly called bud grafting, is an artificial method of asexual or vegetative propagation in plants. Like grafting, this method is employed to convert one plant (the rootstock) into another plant type with desirable characteristics. Similarly, the resulting plants in general have shortened stature and maturity as compared to plants propagated from seed.
This method of plant propagation has the advantage of producing numerous clones from a single piece of stem or twig, each node being a potential source of one-budded scion. But in grafting, this same piece of stem may account for only a single scion.
It is therefore advantageous where there is limited source of plant cuttings or scions for grafting. Likewise, the necessity of transporting bulky scions is eliminated. However, the clones produced take longer time to develop into the right sizes for outplanting than grafted seedlings.
Various techniques are used, mostly applicable to young plants in active growth with stems in which the bark is easily separable from the wood. Basically, the procedure in budding consists of the following steps:
1. Preparation of the rootstock. Rootstocks about the size of an ordinary pencil (~0.8 cm) and up to ~1.5 cm in diameter are commonly used but there are no hard rules. Chip budding is applied in citrus ~1/2 cm in diameter while other methods can apply to rootstocks up to ~2.5 cm (1 in) or even thicker. Potted seedlings are widely used but, similar to grafting, established trees may be top-budded. The specific techniques used in preparing the portion of the stem where union is intended vary;
2. Preparation of the bark to be joined to the rootstock. This consists of a prominent axillary bud (a plant organ which serves as growing point) on a section of bark, with or without a small piece of wood attached. This piece of bark is often termed as either a bud patch, chip, or shield piece. They are also referred to as single-bud scions.
Budsticks, small stems or twigs having multiple number of nodes from which the bud-containing barks are to be prepared, are obtained from well selected vigorous, disease-free mother plants having desirable characteristics and immediately defoliated. As in rootstocks, the preparation techniques are numerous;
3. Insertion of the prepared bark. The prepared patch, chip or shield piece is inserted into the part of the stem of the rootstock to replace the piece of bark that is removed or where cuts are made to allow union. Correct polarity should be observed, that is, the patch of bark is oriented upward.
4. Tying or wrapping. The stem-bud union is tied or wrapped to hold the components firmly together but generally leaving the growing point exposed. If also wrapped, it must be opened about 15 days later or at the time when the rootstock is cut back. There are various ready-to-use wrapping materials. A specialized wrapping strip made of rubber expands as the rootstock grows and naturally deteriorates after several weeks. But for practical usage, a thin, transparent polypropylene (PP) plastic bag can be cut into strips about 2-3 cm wide. These plastic strips have to be elastic and do not easily break when stretched;
5. Cut back of the rootstock. The rootstock must be decapitated, preferably with the use of a pruning shear, at the part of the stem immediately above the union to eliminate apical dominance. As a result, a new shoot will emerge from the growing point on the inserted bark which will then acquire apical dominance.
Cut back is done when it becomes certain that there is union which may take 15 days or more. The inserted patch of bark will remain green or otherwise brownish depending on the natural color of the budstick. If union is not successful, it will turn black and rot; and
6. Care of clones. This involves activities that are normally performed to hasten rapid growth of nursery plants and trees. It also includes debudding and desuckering, the removal of offshoots that may emerge from the stem below the union. These are done to ensure that the propagated plants will exhibit only the characters of the mother plant. Likewise, wrapping materials that take time to deteriorate, like PP plastic strips, must be removed at the earliest time possible to prevent strangling effect.

Jackman's wife doesn't like Wolverine bod [VIDEO]; prefers chubbier Hugh?
Actor Hugh Jackman who stars in Marvel Comic's upcoming superhero movie "The Wolverine, " said that his wife Deborra-Lee Furness does not like his shirtless Wolverine body.
"Deb will tell you that she doesn't like it. She prefers me chubby because it makes her look better," Jackman told ET. He said that he first met Furness when his body was not so chiseled. "I don't know. I met her on a prison drama where I was pretty jacked in that, and I dare say we wouldn't be together if I hadn't met her with that body."
The Australian actor explained that he had to train very hard to achieve the look of the shirtless Wolverine physique. He told DailyMail that he ate so much chicken to work his diet. "It's not good for me to eat 6,000 calories a day. I have to eat a dozen eggs every day. The only way (varying the diet) works is eating chicken. I know there are vegan body builders but chicken is what works for me. Lots and lots of chicken ... I worry I'll have a heart attack.''
The 44-year-old recently revealed that he used his 'childhood rage' over his brother who used to bully him for dancing to take on the role of Wolverine.
"I was bullied by my big brother," he told DailyMail. "Playing Wolverine makes me think how I used to fight with my brother. He used to call me poofter and sissy for being interested in dancing. And by the time he said there was nothing wrong with that, I was too old. I was 18 by then. I stopped myself being Billy Elliot. I didn't have the guts. But the rage I felt then, I can use to play Wolverine.''
Jackman and his wife have been married for 17 years after meeting on the set of Correlli. The pair have two adopted children, Oscar Maximillia, 13, and Ava Eliot, 8.
"The Wolverine" will be released July 26 in the United States.
