STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) -- Penn State is back in the AP Top 25 just in time for Saturday's showdown with No. 3 Alabama.
The Nittany Lions made their season debut in the poll this week at No. 23, coming off a 41-7 rout of FCS school Indiana State in the season opener. The Crimson Tide present a far greater challenge.
Coach Joe Paterno hopes he'll be back on the sideline for Alabama, though he said Tuesday that he's still in some pain. Paterno still uses a crutch, but is moving a little more spryly as he recovers from injuries to his shoulder and pelvis suffered following an accidental hit in practice last month.
Paterno also hasn't named a starting quarterback for the second
straight week. Rob Bolden and Matt McGloin are the candidates.

The consensus here seems to be that, despite scientific evidence to the contrary, poor folk do not escape their lot in life because of their unwillingness to work hard or live a morally just way of life.

Many of us rationalize our acceptance of a social order that keeps people in poverty. We assert that the poor are responsible for their own situation. They're just not working hard enough, not staying in school, having children out of wedlock, etc. The study contradicts this belief by concluding that those who start life with advantages of access to jobs, relative wealth and stable families overwhelmingly maintain a higher level of economic success than those who start life in poverty. The "opportunity" playing field is very far from level. This is not surprising, but most responses, instead of considering what we can do to level the "opportunity" playing field, try to reinforce the case that the poor are responsible for their own problems. Instead, we should be recognizing that 1) Luck of birth determines most of your outcome, 2) the rate of movement up the economic ladder is pretty small, and 3) most importantly, the opportunity to work your way up the socio-economic ladder is NOT a morally adequate response to poverty and unemployment when we acquiesce to a social structure designed to maintain a highly unequal distribution of wealth and income. We hate when our moral cop-outs are challenged.

I like most of the smart comments posted here. I attended a professional school
in the health care field where 70 of the 100 students were Asian. Many of them
were Vietnamese that came to the U.S. with nothing in the 1970's at the end
of the Vietnam War. Their parents worked hard in donut shops or other similar
low-paying jobs while the kids worked hard in school. Now those kids are making
big incomes.
Even if a child in poverty only achieves a much smaller percentage of this above example, they can still pull themselves out of poverty, in most cases. If a strong desire and work ethic are there, it can be done.

@ jcm53byu
Thank you for saying that. I decided against including in my comment the fact that my acquaintance was white and male at a time when those two characteristics were more explicitly favored by our society. My thought was that this would be too easily dismissed as carping, when it's simply a fact. White males were and still are favored (though less so now than in the past).
Two more features we don't choose, but that have significant implications for our futures.

Someone should do a study where the findings are white males are sick of being
shamed and that they owe someone else. We live in a pretty great country where
your opportunities are endless, even overcoming conditions that you were born
into or overcoming stupid mistakes that you made. In my comment above, I
mentioned that the majority of my class was Asian, but I did not mention that
the majority was also female. Many of them as children had little at the end of
The Vietnam War.
Two decades ago I wanted to be accepted into the physical therapy school at The University of Utah. About 200 applied each year, but only 24 were accepted (12 males and 12 females). Of the applicants, about 150 were white males. If you were a female or minority with ambition, you had a many times higher chance of being accepted. I became discouraged at my odds and went for a different healthcare profession.
Stop your whining, finger-pointing, and over-generalizing and go out and accomplish what you would like to do. Also know it will not be handed to you and will require a lot of hard work and determination.

The Overseas Investment Office has granted consent for
private infrastructure company Fulton Hogan to sell almost
5000ha of Otago forestry blocks for an undisclosed sum.
The sale is part of a divestment by Fulton Hogan of non-core
assets, including land in Queenstown, after its annual
after-tax profit plunged from $73.9 million a year ago to
$7.9 million on the back of multiple problems within its
Australian division.
The forestry blocks were sold to Forestry Fund 9 NZ Ltd,
whose sole shareholder is GMO Forestry Fund 9, LP, of
Wilmington, Delaware, the United States, according to
Companies Office records.
The blocks sold are at Waitahuna (656ha), Glenore (2019ha),
Falla Burn (434ha), Wetherstons Rd (739ha), Nugget Stream
(353ha), Scroggs Hill (185ha), Christies Gully (89ha) and

Chow What's Wrong With This Picture?
posted by February 29 at 15:46 PMon
Photo of downer cow being dragged to slaughter via Farm Sanctuary.
February 18, 2008: The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) issues the largest beef recall in history, three weeks after the Humane Society released a video showing slaughterhouse workers administering electric shocks and high-intensity water sprays to cows that were too sick to stand, and rolling the cows over with forklifts. According to the Boston Globe, "One worry when an animal collapses is that it may have bovine spongiform encephalopathy, the infection known as 'mad cow disease.'" The majority of US mad cow cases have come from such so-called "downer" cows.
February 29, 2008: USDA director Ed Schafer rejected calls to ban downer cows from the food supply and said he wouldn't support stiffer penalties against meat processing plants that violate food-safety laws. Although the recall came only after the Humane Society released a videotape made surreptitiously by a slaughterhouse worker documenting the violations, Schafer said he believes the system worked. "The rules are adequate," Schafer said.
Monday, March 3: This is the deadline to submit comments to the USDAs Agricultural Marketing Service, which recently proposed lowering the standard for meat producers who want to label their products "naturally raised." Under the proposed new standard, meat could be labeled "naturally raised" if it was produced without growth hormones, antibiotics, or mammalian or avian byproducts. That means, for example, that cows that were raised on factory farms on corn (not grass, their natural food), with no access to the outdoors, without natural breeding methods, and under inhumane conditions—and taken to massive, polluting industrial feedlots for fattening and slaughter—could be labeled "naturally raised."
If you want to stop the United States' food-quality standards from slipping even further, submit a comment to the USDA here.

An opportunity that might appeal to appropriately qualified readers to try and steer NIAID towards more productive areas of research than circumcision-as-an-AIDS-preventative.
If anyone should happen to be successful in landing a job or contract they first saw on these forums, it would be greatly appreciated if they could donate a certain percentage of net income (maybe 5%-10%) to an anti-circumcision organisation/s in the U.S. (or if you're not confident in donating the money, invest a similar amount in your own anti-circumcision activities).

Tiananmen Square
Tiananmen Square © Uwe Aranas
The famous square at the heart of Beijing attracts tourists not only for its breathtaking design and views of numerous landmarks, including the famous painting of Chairman Mao, but also because it was the scene of so many historic events and is the largest city square in the world. In the ancient imperial days, the square was a gathering place and the site of government offices, but more modern history, particularly the 1989 massacre of pro-democracy demonstrators, has made it a site of great political significance. Major rallies took place in the square during the Cultural Revolution when Mao Tse Tung reviewed military parades up to a million strong.
The square is surrounded by several monuments, some ancient and some modern, including the former gates to the Forbidden City, the Gate of Heavenly Peace and Qianmen (the front gate), the Chinese Revolution Museum, and the Mao Mausoleum, where China's former leader lies preserved. There is also an underground walkway connecting Tiananmen Square with the Forbidden City. Like most big tourist attractions in China, it is best to try and go early in the day to avoid the masses. Visitors in summer are advised to wear sunscreen or a hat, as there is little shade to be found.

Re: The Zync glitter is real!
Ficonightmare, you make a excellent point "We all have different goals when it comes to credit." I for one am excited about the opportunity get my foot in the door with American Express. By having the Charge Card it does force me to pay in full every month ( which is what I do with all my cards, except one every month). It also gives my the extra perks that I wouldn't have gotten for money I was going to spend either way.
These Forums have taught me SO MUCH and I really do sincerely appreciate all the useful information I have received.
Congrats to everyone on there recent approvals!! I look forward to receiving mines.
Re: The Zync glitter is real!
I think opposing viewpoints have to be shared and are shared on this site.
However, I still think that replies like "We all have different credit goals" don't really hit the nail on the head. Of course, each of us has a different subset of goals. Someone wants to buy a house, yet another wants to repair their score etc. However, behind that array of different goals there is a goal that we all have in common: to obtain, build, keep a reliable and good credit profile that makes it possible for us to convince lenders to extend credit to us when we need it. I have yet to see one single poster on here who has not been pursuing that. I think that is the overarching idea on here, isn't it?
Re: The Zync glitter is real!
wolle- If you must break it down, then yes- we all have a different subset of goals. Based on that subset, the cards we choose vary. There is nothing wrong with choosing a ZYNC card over a Blue if your goal is to start buidling a relationship with AMEX. Remember, not everyone will qualify for the Blue.
My goal was simple. One of the negative factors on my FICO reports is "short credit history". Opening up a card that has a 15 year history will help. In the end, my goal is a good mortgage rate. I'd like to do everything possible to obtain that goal.
So whether or not someone feels paying an AF isn't the wisest move, that opinion is in direct conflict with what this card can do for me. Again, different goals.
I agree that we should share opposing views. But that opposing view should be helpful, and should explain how it could directly hurt what the OP is trying to accomplish. I haven't seen that in this thread.

I app'ed on the.... 29th or 30... I got approved on the 2nd and got the card a day after veterans day.
Re: The Zync glitter is real!
Im suprised this was even an issue...
If this was a "Is Amex worth it thread?" then, by all means it would be appropriate to hear all suggestions/POVs.
But if someone posts, and is excited and is sharing what they feel to be a accomplishment in thier own right, why post specifically to "poopoo" thier accomplishment...?

Electronic Arts Sticking By Tiger Woods, Which Is Good News (For Me)
I do not have to play Rogue Warrior, readers, but Stephen Johnson does!

EA Shutting Down Online Servers For Numerous Sports Games
There certainly isn't anything unusual about publishers shutting down online servers for games that people are no longer playing. So it shouldn't surprise you that EA announced today that they will be taking an axe to a number of servers on Feb 2. The two most notable entries on the list are the poorly received Facebreaker and Madden NFL...
How Long Can Tiger Last At EA?
I hear golfing superstar Tiger Woods is having some problems with ladies lately. At last count, ten women of varying degrees of virtue and morals have publicly claimed that Woods has broken his marriage vows with them. There are text messages. There are voicemails. His wife reportedly attacked Tiger with a golf club. It's going to be a rough...

After four weeks the Cowboys are 2-2 and still in first place in the NFC East. As we do every week, we review, preview, comment and tell you about the Cowboys in our weekly Beat Writers Report.
Bruce Carter stood on the sidelines for 18 consecutive defensive snaps in the second half before returning to the field with 2:42 to play in the fourth quarter. Carter's absence was explained in different ways on Sunday: Poor play, heat related issues and a coach's decision. Coach Jason Garrett added to the drama Monday when he said Carter sat because of a sore foot. Asked about the heat (it was 80 degrees at kickoff with a humidity of 27 percent with a slight wind) Garrett said that wasn't an issue. Defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin said it was after the game. We're not sure why the Cowboys can't get their stories straight regarding Carter's absence but one thing is clear: he didn't have a good game. Carter had good coverage on a touchdown pass to Danny Woodhead, but quarterback Philip Rivers made a perfect throw over Carter's outstretched arm for the touchdown. On Woodhead's 13-yard touchdown reception, a wheel route, Carter just lunged at him and then took off. It was poor technique by the linebacker who can play better. One other play of note, regarding Carter, was a run where he stopped Ryan Mathews at the line of scrimmage, but couldn't hold him, allowing a seven-yard gain. Garrett wouldn't commit to Carter's status on the nickle defense, Ernie Sims is there, so there appears to be more changes coming.
Left tackle Tyron Smith lost his left shoe in the middle stages of the fourth quarter. Smith came out for two plays and this is where Jermey Parnell took over. His first snap was OK, as Tony Romo completed a nine-yard reception to Terrance Williams. But the second snap, Parnell is flagged for holding. Smith got his shoe on and returned and Parnell watched the rest of the afternoon. Garrett talks plenty about players taking advantage of opportunities when presented and here Parnell got one only to struggle. The Cowboys are still high on him, but with security in Smith at left tackle and Doug Free at right tackle, there has to be some scratching of heads about the future of Parnell. He played well late last season in a platoon with Free, but struggled with his health in training camp and once he became healthy has just been OK.
Two of the smallest and fastest players on the team, Lance Dunbar and Cole Beasley, played a combined 34 snaps Sunday. Beasley caught all three passes thrown his way for 16 yards and Dunbar gained seven yards on a pitch play with his only touch. Beasley is a good slot receiver who finds opens spots in the defense and uses his speed as an excellent yards-after-catch player. Dunbar can do the same, as evident by his work in training camp and in games. The negatives for Dunbar are ball protection, he fumbled once and his size, 5-8, makes it hard to trust him on pass protection, yet it's all about how he sets his feet. I think the Cowboys should get the ball more to these two players given how defenses are trying to take Jason Witten and Dez Bryant out with double-teams. DeMarco Murray is a solid running back but Dunbar should get more opportunities to make plays in the short passing game because he makes defenders miss. Beasley does the same thing because he gets into his routes quick and that's a positive for Romo who wants to get rid of the ball in less than two seconds.
Bryant had six catches for 81 yards and two touchdowns in the loss. In the second half, the Cowboys got away from him. Tight coverage and shading a safety near him were part of the reasons. Bryant is such a powerful player in tight quarters that by the time he gets open, Romo has moved on with his reads. In the first quarter of games, Bryant has seven receptions for 109 yards and two touchdowns. Romo targeted him a team-leading 10 times in the opening quarter. In the fourth quarter, Bryant has been targeted nine times and has five catches for 43 yards with no touchdowns. Witten (13) and Murray (7) have been targeted more in the final quarter than Bryant. The Cowboys best offensive player is Bryant and the team has to find ways to get him open in the fourth quarter especially if they're trailing in games which was the case in losses to Kansas City and San Diego.
Notes: Jerry Jones said Tuesday on KRLD-FM he wanted to see Gavin Escobar on the field more against the Chargers but understood why. Escobar, who got two offensive snaps, isn't a very good blocker and the Cowboys need him to improve in this area. ... Chargers targeted cornerback Brandon Carr twice on Sunday and completed one pass for 19 yards. ... Remember when everybody wanted Murray benched for Phillip Tanner or Joseph Randle or even Dunbar? Guess who's the third-leading rusher in the NFL? Murray has 356 yards. ... In case you forgot, Denver's Peyton Manning, whom the Cowboys meet this week, is 2-0 against Monte Kiffin and 1-0 against Rod Marinelli. In two of the victories, Manning needed a fourth quarter comeback to win.

I chose a pie chart because its easy to see the comparisons between the number left of the dark and light lemon peppered moths and its also easier to see which type of moths had the biggest population. Using a pie chart would be the most understandable but if I were to use a line graph it wouldnt make sense because line graphs are used to show amounts over time
Question: How Does the change in forest color affect the population of the Lemon Peppered Moths.
IV:Change In Forest Color
DV: Lemon Peppered Moth Population
Hypothesis: If there is a change in the white forest color then the population of the white lemon peppered moths will decrease because they would have to adapt to a new environment because its being eaten by predators because it cant camouflage in its new environment
Claim: If the white colored forest changes to a black colored forest then the population of the white lemon peppered moths will decrease because they will stand out more in the black colored forest so they will be spotted easier by predators. Since the white lemon peppered moths are being eaten more often the black peppered moths will thrive because they can camouflage into the black colored forest.
Evidence: As you can see the first chart is showing the percentages of the white and black moths left in the White colored forest. The percentage of the white moths left was 81 percent while the percentage of the dark colored moth was 19 percent. The white moths thrived in this environment because of their ability to camouflage, while the black moths will sooner or later die out because they cant camouflage in this environment so they are more vulnerable to predators. In the second chart, we see the same results except in the black colored forest. The percentage of black colored moths left is 54 percent and the percentage of the white colored moths left is 46%. The black colored moths thrived in the black colored forest because since it can camouflage in this environment it was harder for predators to spot so it wasn't as vulnerable, but on the other hand the white colored moths stood out in this environment because it cant camouflage so the white colored moths would also sooner or later die out. This lab modeled that an organism with a more beneficial trait will thrive in its environment and other traits will not.
How does this lab model Natural Selection?
This lab modeled natural selection because it showed us that an organism with a more beneficial trait will thrive in its environment. In the experiment we saw how the light colored moth thrived in the light colored forest because the moth blended into its surroundings so it wasn't caught by predators, meanwhile the black moths can't blend in in a environment that is all white, so the population of the dark colored moths increased because they were being eaten by predators. The white colored moths were also reproducing with more white colored moths since the population of the dark colored moths was decreasing. Eventually their wouldn't be anymore black colored moths in white colored forests because they are being eaten.

City Statement from Venus Velazquez
posted by October 18 at 21:38 PMon
UPDATE! Holy crap! I agree with Joel Connelly! (Except when he says we've "written off" Velazquez here at Slog. Commenters and Sloggers are not one and the same, Joel.)
DOUBLE UPDATE! Unrelated note edition! Trying to save an unfinished Morning News, I accidentally posted it. Sorry for the confusion, folks!
City Council candidate Venus Velazquez, arrested last night for alleged drunk driving, just issued a statement about her arrest. It reads in part:
Today I want to apologize to the people of Seattle, my family, my friends and all of my supporters. I am more sorry about this incident than I can express in words. I have devoted much of my life to public serviceand most of the year to my campaign for Seattle City Council.
I do not believe I was impairedI had two drinks with friends over dinner after a long day of campaigningbut I respect the system that will ultimately make that judgment.
I would never intentionally put myself in the situation of putting others at risk or violating the great trust so many supporters have given me.
Last night was a very stressful time for me. I did everything asked of me by the officer who stopped me, including taking a roadside sobriety test. The officer who stopped me treated me fairly and explained everything to me. When I was at the precinct I decided not to take any additional tests. In retrospect, that may have been a mistake.
As we move forward with this campaign, I remain hopeful that I will have the opportunity to serve the voters and the city of Seattle.
So, a non-apology apology.
I've been out sick all day, which is one reason I haven't weighed in yet. But a bigger reason is that I don't really know how to react. From the tone of the comments* on Josh's initial post, it sounds like many of you think Velazquez should be drawn and quartered. ("Glad we see the real Venus now"; "There is no excuse for this behavior"; "She does not deserve to even be a candidate"; one person even accused her of endangering children and babies). But is driving after a couple of drinks really the sort of offense that makes you unfit for public office?
I doubt any drinker who reads this blog can say categorically that they've NEVER gotten behind the wheel after a celebratory night, or two drinks with dinner (the amount Velazquez says she had). It's a dumb idea, yes (and it can get you in a lot of trouble, as Velazquez discovered last night)—but, as one commenter pointed out, it's not like she's out there killing babies. She did a dumb thing, she got caught, and now she'll pay a political price. Voters who were planning to support Velazquez should weigh this incident against her campaign and the issues she's running on, and ask whether it eclipses her qualifications. If it's a bigger deal than all the other issues in the race, they should vote against her. If it doesn't, they should stick with her. The Stranger, for our part, will not be withdrawing our endorsement.

Using a 1-year prospective design, this study examined the influence of family status variables (family income, parental education, family structure), parenting variables (maternal support and restrictive control), peer support, and neighborhood risk on the school performance of 120 African American junior high school students. In addition to main effects of these variables, neighborhood risk was examined as a moderator of the effects of parenting and peer support. Family status variables were not predictive of adolescent school performance as indexed by self-reported grade point average. Maternal support at Time 1 was prospectively related to adolescent grades at Time 2. Neighborhood risk was related to lower grades, while peer support predicted better grades in the prospective analyses. Neighborhood risk also moderated the effects of maternal restrictive control and peer support on adolescent grades in prospective analyses. These findings highlight the importance of an ecological approach to the problem of academic underachievement within the African American community.

The jury has started its deliberations in the Ngatai
'Mellory' Manning murder trial.
Justice David Gendall spent more than two hours summing up
the evidence for the jury of six men and six women today.
They retired to begin considering their verdict at 12.30pm.
Mongrel Mob prospect Mauha Huataki Fawcett, 26, denies
murdering Miss Manning, 27, in 2008.
He has been conducting his own defence with assistance of an
amicus curiae, lawyer Craig Ruane, throughout the four-week
trial at the High Court in Christchurch.
Fawcett claims police pressured and "coached" him into making
false confessions that he was present when Miss Manning was
raped, bashed, and stabbed on December 18, 2008 at a
Galbraith Ave gang pad in Christchurch over an alleged debt.
The Crown says Fawcett - then aged 21 and known within gang
circles as 'Muck Dog' - either took part in the killing, or
was there as a party to her brutal murder.
Miss Manning's partially naked body was discovered floating
in the Avon River by a kayaker the day after she was killed.
Justice Gendall today urged the jury to set aside any
feelings of sympathy and prejudice and ensure their decision
is not swayed by emotion.
The onus of proof, whether the charge is proved beyond
reasonable doubt, lies with the Crown, he said.
Commenting on Fawcett's unusual decision to represent himself
on such a serious charge, Justice Gendall said like any
defendant, he has an "absolute right" to do so.
"You are not to read anything in that decision or to think
anything ill of that."
The judge also directed the jury on the alternate possible
verdict of manslaughter.
The Crown accepts that Fawcett was not necessarily the main
killer, but was at least party to the murder, and therefore
guilty of murder.
It is a clear case of murder, and not manslaughter, in an
organised gang hit, the Crown contends.
But Justice Gendall said if the jury finds Fawcett not guilty
of murder as a party, then they should go on to consider
whether he is guilty of manslaughter.
Fawcett simply contends he wasn't at the gang pad that night.
He says he had nothing to do with the death, or in disposing
of the body, and that he had lied throughout his police

I know we have reina but just imagine we had cech instead of kirkland as well.I heard about the ronaldo thing a couple of years ago, apparently the board wouldn't pay something like £4.4m for a 16 year old, then he goes to the mancs for £12.24m.

Like Shockwave, Percy is made from various shades of minky and has button-jointed limbs where they attach to his torso, for some degree of mobility. He also can't sit up unless he's in the pose shown in these photos. The details are a combination of machine embroidery and hand-sewn embroidery. I haven't been able to locate a program for digital embroidery patterns that is both Mac-compatible and affordable just yet, so I can't pull off some of the things I'd like to do at some point in the future; namely things like entirely-embroidered eyes or emblems. But it's still nice to be able to pull of some types of stitching that I couldn't do with plain old hand sewing.
I've been asked about doing commissions in this style, and while I would be up for it I am facing a bit of a problem that I do not know when it'll be resolved - the house I live in is on the market, which means I have to keep everything picture-perfect to the best of my ability; it also puts a restraint on ordering anything online [which is how I get the fabrics I need] because I honestly do not know how much longer we'll be at this address, and I don't want anything winding up at the wrong place. So for now I'm not going to be accepting any, though I'll definitely let people know once we've settled into a new house and I can actually start ordering fabric without worrying about wrong addresses.

Great job on the plush too

GALVESTON, Texas (AP) - A suspect in the 1990 alleged abduction, rape and throat slashing of a Dickinson girl has been found hanged in his jail cell.
Galveston County sheriff's Maj. Ray Tuttoilmondo says 40-year-old Dennis Earl Bradford was found hanged early Monday in an apparent suicide. Tuttoilmondo says there were no signs of foul play and Bradford made a noose from bedding.
DNA evidence led to the October arrest of Bradford in North Little Rock, Ark.
Jennifer Schuett, who was 8 years old when she was attacked, says she is "shocked and disappointed" that Bradford resorted to suicide and she had wanted to face him in court.
The Associated Press does not normally name alleged sex abuse victims, but Schuett and authorities used her name in publicly discussing the case and she maintains a website.
