2010-11 Season Preview: Balancing Act – Bulldogs Ready To Kick Off Campaign
Scoring balance has been one of the most common traits of the Yale men's basketball team under the direction of James Jones, who is entering is entering his 12th season as The Joel E. Smilow, Class of 1954 Head Coach. Last year was an exception. Alex Zampier led the team with a 17.4 scoring average, the highest at Yale since Paul Maley averaged 20.2 points in 1987-88. The results were still there as the Bulldogs finished in the top half of the Ivy League for the 10th straight year. Zampier, though, has graduated so Yale figures to return to a more well-rounded attack in 2010-11. The Bulldogs kick off the season on Saturday against Quinnipiac in the Connecticut 6 Classic at the Mohegan Sun Arena.

Bulldogs Picked Fifth In Ivy League Preseason Media Poll
The Yale men's basketball team is about halfway through its preseason preparation for the Nov. 13 season opener against Quinnipiac at the Connecticut 6 Classic. On Wednesday, the Bulldogs learned a little bit about how outsiders view the upcoming year when they were picked to finish fifth in the Ivy League by the select panel of 17 Ivy media representatives. Yale, though, shouldn't put too much stock in those prognostications. The Bulldogs have finished higher than projected in four of the last five years.

PALMER - A 36-year-old Rhode Island man is being held at the Hampden County House of Correction in Ludlow in lieu of $500 cash bail after he allegedly exposed himself to the female clerk inside the Home Video adult store on Main Street, police said.
Joshua J. Lee, of 5 Oyster Lane, Warren, R.I., was charged with open and gross lewdness, indecent exposure and marijuana possession in connection with the Tuesday night incident, police said. He was arraigned yesterday in Palmer District Court, where an innocent plea was entered and bail was set. His next court date is Sept. 17 for a pretrial conference.

Sometimes, companies get punished through absolutely no fault of their own. Such was the case for Empire District Electric (NYSE: EDE ) , a utility provider operating in Kansas, Oklahoma and -- most notably this year -- Missouri.
Take a look at the stock's chart this year, and you'll be able to pinpoint a major one-time event.
Any guesses as to what that one-time event was? Essentially, it was the horrendous tornado that ripped through communities like Joplin, Mo., leaving the town looking like a war zone. But if we're going to be technical, the stock dropped the most after the company announced it would be suspending its dividend for a year -- a clear effect of the twister.
Because most investors in utilities are in it for the dividends -- and have no illusions of massive share price appreciation -- this was pretty devastating news. It led the Fool's own Jim Royal to point out the safety of investing in dividend payers like Brookfield Infrastructure Partners (NYSE: BIP ) over Empire because of their diverse holdings that aren't as susceptible to isolated catastrophes.
But in reality, not all was lost for shareholders. After bottoming out at $18.01 in May, the stock has recovered nicely, and is down less than 5% for the year. Insiders, who should have a better idea than anyone else of the company's status, snatched up shares in June after surveying the company's position.
Furthermore, the company has also let investors know that they should expect a $1.00 annual dividend starting in 2012. If that holds true, Empire's yield would be a nice 4.7% at today's prices, which is actually on-par with or better than fellow utilities Southern Company (NYSE: SO ) , Duke Energy (NYSE: DUK ) , and National Grid (NYSE: NGG ) .

STORRS, Conn. (AP) — University of Connecticut sophomore guard Jeremy Lamb has declared for the NBA draft.
The 19-year-old from Norcross, Ga. led the Huskies in scoring last season at 17.7 points per game, and was a key part of the team that won the NCAA championship in 2011.
Lamb said in a statement released Tuesday by UConn that it was a difficult decision to go professional but it is in the best interest of his family.
UConn coach Jim Calhoun said he looks forward to seeing Lamb develop into a "terrific player" in the NBA.
The 6-foot-5 Lamb became just the sixth sophomore in UConn history to score 1,000 career points.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. - Assemblyman Joe Borelli on Thursday altered an online pitch for an upcoming campaign kickoff/fundraiser that had inadvertently linked him with segregationist Alabama Gov. George Wallace.
The Facebook pitch for the Borelli's 2014 campaign event on May 29 featured a photo of vintage GOP campaign buttons, including two for Wallace.
Upon being sworn in as governor of Alabama in 1963, Wallace infamously said, "Segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever" in the face of efforts to integrate the South.
"Clearly it is not appropriate," said Borelli (R-South Shore). "It's clearly not someone I want to link my re-election efforts to."
The image was quickly replaced, but not before someone emailed it around.
Borelli said that the ad was created by a campaign volunteer using a stock image that was found on the Internet. But he said he did see the ad before it went up online.
"I'm not going to deny that I saw it," he said. "It was a silly mistake, trying to use a stock image."
As for any controversy stirred by the image, Borelli added, "It's the media making a mountain out of a molehill. But thanks for plugging my fundraiser."

|Olympus OM-D EM-5 Digital DSLR Camera Review
Digital Camera Review by: Keith Parsons
Much hype has been placed on the Olympus OM-D EM-5 since its announcement back in February of this year and it comes feature packed with claims of the world fastest autofocus and a revolutionary 5 axis image stabilisation system.
Appearance & Functionality
Camera manufacturers seem to be currently attempting to revitalise their legacies by re-creating digital versions of traditionally styled cameras and the Olympus falls into this area. Essentially styled from the incredibly popular 35mm film OM SLR range the OM-D EM-5 is however not an SLR and does not accept the still sought after OM lens range despite mimicking its looks.
Available in either a grey/black mix or straight black colour scheme the OM-D EM-5 feels good in your hands with a solidly built magnesium body, although it appears to have shed some weight compared to the OM10 film SLR currently sitting on my desk which is certainly not a bad thing! This is also despite having to add the swag of componentry seen in digital cameras these days. The most notable difference on the body is the addition of a moulded hand grip, an underestimated feature that radically reduces hand fatigue. A cleverly placed thumb pad increase the natural feel of the camera in your hand even further.
Shooting in wet conditions is also possible as the Olympus boasts to be "the first weather-sealed compact system camera in the world". Though in reading some finer print this is only possible if using the 12-50mm lens.

About Olympus
In Greek mythology, Mt.Olympus is the home of the twelve supreme gods and goddesses. Olympus
was named after this mountain to reflect its strong aspiration to create high quality, world
famous products.
"Olympus" has been used as a trademark since the time of Takachiho Seisakusho, the predecessor of Olympus Corporation.
In Japanese mythology, it is said that eight million gods and goddesses live in Takamagahara, the peak of Mt.Takachiho. The name "Olympus" was selected as the trademark because Mt.Olympus, like Mt.Takachiho, was the home of gods and goddesses. This trademark is also imbued with the aspiration of Olympus to illuminate the world with its optical devices, just like Takamagahara brought light to the world.
Takachiho Seisakusho was renamed Takachiho Optical Co., Ltd. in 1942 when optical products became the mainstay of the company. In 1947, the name was changed again to Olympus Optical Co., Ltd. in an attempt to enhance its corporate image.
And in 2003, the company made a fresh start as Olympus Corporation, to show its willingness to establish a dynamic corporate brand by unifying the corporate name and the well-known brand.
In recent years, Olympus Corporation has focused on "Opto-Digital Technology" as its core competence, technological strengths that competitors cannot easily imitate, to maximize corporate value and to become one of the top optical instrument manufactures.

Kenner residents who are having problems with their sewage lines should call (504) 468-7237 to report the location and type of problem.
Because of heavy rain today and Friday, some areas of Kenner may experience minor sewage backup resulting from overloaded pipes that collect sewage and water from storm drains, city spokesman Emile Lafourcade said.
Though no complaints had been received through 11:30 a.m. Saturday, city officials wanted to make residents aware of a problem with the phone system of Veolia Water, the city's private sewage system contractor, that has rendered inoperable the regular customer service line.
Instead, customers should call (504) 468-7237 and leave a message with their name, address and phone number. A representative from Veolia will return the call shortly, Lafourcade said.
When phone repairs are made, probably by Monday, customers will again be able to reach Veolia at (504) 468-7292, the regular customer service number.
Because of the prevalence of old pipes in some sections of Kenner, residents in certain low-lying sections of the city experience slight sewer backups during heavy rains.
The problems typically dissipate as rain tapers off, Lafourcade said. Homes and businesses most prone to sewer backups include those in the northern section of Kenner, along the city's eastern border and on the northwest edge of town, he said.

Review: Courting His Favorite Nurse by Lynne Marshall
The first book taking place in Whispering Oaks, California and focusing on one of the Grady siblings is filled with real-life drama and a full range of emotions. Lynne Marshall has written a wonderful story for her Harlequin Special Edition debut, where the reader becomes totally drawn into the lives of the spirited characters.
When her parents are involved in an accident, Anne Grady takes a leave of absence from her work as a clinic nurse and comes to help with their special needs at home. Shortly after arriving home, she has a chance meeting at the hospital with Jack Lightfoot, a man she has not seen in over twelve years. Anne and he were in high school together, and he started dating her best friend after she introduced them to each other. This left her secretly wanting him for herself, and then experiencing guilty feelings because of what happened to her friend. She may have returned to her hometown, but there is no way she is going to let Jack back into her life as more than a friend.
From the moment Jack encounters Anne again, he wants to see if the feelings shared in high school are still alive and can be revived. He knows there are numerous past concerns for them to overcome before their relationship can development into something more lasting, but he is willing to give it his all for a chance to be with her.
Emotions are in abundance all throughout Lynne Marshall's compelling story. While feelings are sometimes conveyed with anguish because of inner guilt and other situations are brimming with pleasurable joy, there is never an instant in COURTING HIS FAVORITE NURSE when every single scene does not come across as absolutely true-to-life. The second chance at love theme in this story is skillfully depicted, as one incident after another throws together two individuals who were once very close friends but a tragedy drove them apart. With so much time having gone by, Anne believes there is no hope for a relationship with Jack. However, he is not ready to give up and grabs any opportunity to be with the woman who still means much to him. Ms. Marshall takes Jack and Anne through quite a few ups and downs, as memories are recalled and long-held dreams are still greatly desired. Their intimate responses to each other are expressed with sincerity and much caring, thus proving how they really feel with actions if not words. The past and present lives of this couple are strongly entwined, and their futures are intensely influenced by whether they listen to the minds or their hearts. Plenty of everyday activities associated with taking care of someone make the story more genuine, and there are even several scenes where humor is portrayed and had me chuckling. The Return to Whispering Oaks trilogy will have two more stories, and I am definitely eager to see what else happens when the other two Grady siblings return home. COURTING HIS FAVORITE NURSE is a deeply affecting romance about love and emotional healing.

Washington -- It's a little late, but the Senate finally got around to congratulating Rev. Fred Luter Jr. for his June election as president of the Southern Baptist Convention. Luter, pastor of the Franklin Avenue Baptist Church in New Orleans, was the first African-American selected for the leadership post.
The Senate resolution, offered by Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La., passed Thursday. Landrieu introduced the resolution soon after Luter's election.
But in these days of partisan gridlock, it takes time to advance even a non-controversial resolution.
When the resolution was finally brought up for consideration, it passed by voice vote.
After its enactment, Landrieu said: "The election of Rev. Luter as the Southern Baptist Convention's first African-American president is a milestone for the organization's continued commitment to its values of inclusion and diversity."
Landrieu praised Luter for leading the resurrection of the Franklin Avenue Baptist Church after Hurricane Katrina.

Trainer Larry Jones, who'll be running Mr. Bowling and Mark Valeski in the Risen Star Stakes today at the Fair Grounds, was joking this week about how Todd Pletcher and Bob Baffert appear to be loaded with Kentucky Derby prospects. "Will they leave room for anyone else to get in?'' Jones asked, tongue in cheek.
As has been the case for several years, Pletcher is juggling the racing schedules of several 3-year-olds for whom he has Kentucky Derby aspirations. He's running three of them in Derby preps this weekend.
Pletcher shipped El Padrino from Palm Meadows training center in Florida to the Fair Grounds for the Risen Star, for which he's the 2-1 morning-line favorite. On Sunday at Gulfstream Park, Pletcher, who didn't make the trip to New Orleans, will run Algorithms and Discreet Dancer in the Fountain of Youth.
"What we're trying to do was put El Padrino in what we thought was the best position to accumulate graded earnings," Pletcher said. "We thought he'd travel well. If you did it two preps out (from the Kentucky Derby), you'd find out if he'd like the Fair Grounds. If he does, it leaves you the option of coming back in the Louisiana Derby."
The $300,000 Grade II Risen Star, the final prep for the Louisiana Derby, is the feature on a 12-race card billed as Louisiana Derby Preview Day. The card includes six stakes races, four of them graded.
Post time for the first race is 12:40 p.m.
Graded earnings are the criterion for trimming the Kentucky Derby field if there is an overflow of entries. The maximum field size is 20 horses, but this year, for the first time, also-eligible entrants (no more than two horses) are possible.
El Padrino, who has won two of four starts, will be racing in his second graded race. He finished third in the Grade II Remsen in November at Aqueduct in his final start as a 2-year-old. In his only start at 3, he rolled past Take Charge Indy, the Arlington-Washington Futurity runner-up, to win a mile-and-a-sixteenth allowance race at Gulfstream by two lengths. The Risen Star will be run at the same distance.
Jones' pair, an entry for owner-breeder Brereton Jones, the former governor of Kentucky, is the 4-1 second choice. Mr. Bowling showed grit in holding off Z Dager by a head to win the Lecomte. Mark Valeski's only defeat in three starts came in a maiden race won by Union Rags, one of America's best 2-year-olds last year. As a 3-year-old, Mark Valeski ran six furlongs in 1:10.18, a fast time, to win an allowance race at the Fair Grounds. The Risen Star will be his first two-turn race.
Larry Jones said both colts have much to prove. "Mark Valeski has better numbers (speed figures)," he said. "He looks to have more talent than Mr. Bowling, but he's unproven at the distance. Mr. Bowling, he gives you what he has to. That's what we're trying to feel out right now."
In the Lecomte, Z Dager was making his third start. He won a maiden race at the Fair Grounds in his first start around two turns.
"I think he's a lightly raced horse," trainer Steve Asmussen said. "We have to keep moving forward. That said, the competition steps up as the money does. The key for all these horses, can they keep improving?"
Shared Property, a gelding, had a wide trip before rallying to finish a close third in the Lecomte in his first start as a 3-year-old. As a 2-year-old, Shared Property won the Arlington-Washington Futurity.
"He's very ratable," trainer Tom Amoss said. "The horse responds to commands well from the rider. If there's something I'd like to see a little different from my horse is a little more killer instinct at the end. ... I've yet to see that from him in any of his races, even his winning races."
Amoss said that this Risen Star field shows a typical progression from the Lecomte.
"The field is a little more narrow in terms of numbers, and it looks like the horses are a little more accomplished."
Six of the 13 Lecomte entrants have returned for the Risen Star, which drew 11 horses.
Hall of Fame trainer D. Wayne Lukas shipped Optimizer from Oaklawn Park, where he finished sixth in the Smarty Jones in his first start this year. As a 2-year-old, Optimizer ran in four graded stakes, finishing second in the Grade II With Anticipation on turf at Saratoga, third in the Grade I Breeders' Futurity on the synthetic surface at Keeneland, 11th in the Grade I Breeders' Cup Juvenile at Churchill Downs, and fourth in the Grade II Kentucky Jockey Club at Churchill.
Lukas said the long Fair Grounds stretch should suit Optimizer, a late runner.
"It's going to be interesting to see," Lukas said. "I think I picked a good spot in the Risen Star. I ran him in the Smarty Jones, he had no chance with the short stretch. … I think he's a natural mile-and-a-quarter horse. I want to see him get a chance to run through the stretch."
Trainers are trying to figure out which horses might be a factor in the Churchill Downs stretch on the first Saturday in May.
"I can name 20 horses right now that can win the (Kentucky) Derby," Larry Jones said.
How might the Risen Star affect his list?

ESCANABA - Elmer's County Market was abuzz with activity Thursday morning as children, parents, and shoppers joined organizations from across the state to learn about nutrition and physical fitness as part of the Pure Michigan FIT program.
"We're very honored to have Pure Michigan FIT kick off at our store and to be a part of this initiative to help youth live a healthier life," said Rod Stende, general manager of Elmer's County Market. "Here at Elmer's we're always concerned about the youth and we do a lot to support young people in this community and this is just one more way that we can do that."
Pure Michigan FIT is a nutrition and fitness initiative designed to provide tools and resources for families to give children a good start toward a healthy lifestyle. Originally announced in Gov. Rick Snyder's State of the State address last January, the program officially kicked off in mid-June at the Family Fare grocery store in Wyoming, Mich.

"We looked at what role we could play... It helps us promote what the growers are growing as well as getting a good message out to parents with little kids," said Jamie Clover Adams, director of the Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development.
Many healthy foods are grown in Michigan. "We have over 200 different crops," said Clover Adams, who added pre-sliced apples and baby carrots are processed in Michigan. "The other thing that we really have an advantage on in Michigan is the processing."
The Elmer's Pure Michigan FIT event is the second of a series of events held in grocery stores across the state. "I think what people don't realize is that a lot of consumers come into the grocery store looking for support and education," said Linda Gobler, president of the Michigan Grocers Association. "We really feel like we're a key component in this whole thing."
Shoppers may not be aware of the services that their grocery stores provide. "Many of our stores have nutritionists on staff," said Gobler. They also provide recipes for healthy dishes.
According to Gobler, shoppers who are interested in being connected with a nutritionist or are interested in a food that isn't available on shelves should just ask. "Ask your store managers. They're always very happy to help," she said.
The United Dairy Industry of Michigan was also on hand with Luther Elliss, former defensive tackle for the Detroit Lions.
"We're here doing two programs today. We're here as part of the Pure Michigan FIT program, the governor's initiative on healthy eating and physical activity, and we're also here because we have a relationship with the NFL - that's why Luther's here today - promoting the same thing," said Ken Reich, executive director of marketing for UDIM.
The second program that the UDIM promoted at the event was Fuel Up to Play 60, a program which awards prizes to children for making healthy choices at school and being active for at least 60 minutes a day.
Jilbert's Dairy joined the UDIM in giving out samples of chocolate milk and smoothies. "It's an honor to even be here and to work with Elmer's because they're such nice people and to be able to do this for the community...," said Gordon Mielke, Jilbert's Dairy sales manager. "It's fantastic."
While UDIM and Jilbert's Dairy representatives handed out samples, Elliss was signing photos and promoting chocolate milk. "They're finding out it's more nutritious and better for you as an athlete to consume it within 30-45 minutes after your intense training program. You have a better absorption rate and it does more for you than Gatorade or any other product," said Elliss.
Outside the store the YMCA promoted physical activity with games for kids. "It's just a kind of a sampling of what we have at the Y," said Barbi Nebel of the YMCA.

If you grew up in a region where spicy food is the norm, you probably don't see what the big deal is about eating it. Like so many other things involving cuisine, spice is an acquired taste. If you have a tender mouth but want to leap into the brave, bold, and delicious world of spicy food that is adored by millions of people in all cultures and regions of the Earth, don't worry – it's not too late!
Follow this guide to jumping into the deep end of the culinary pool and enjoying spicy food.
Peppers are just some of the amazing spices awaiting your conversion.
Frequent Moderation
Eat spicy foods in small doses frequently. Prime your system for the heat and power of spicy foods by consuming them often, but in modest amounts. In a surprisingly short amount of time, your palate will become immunized – at least partially – to the effect of the burn.
Before You Eat
Drinking milk – preferably whole milk – before eating spicy foods dampens the kick that comes with it. Milk will provide a temporary , fat-laden coating on the entirety of the inside of your mouth, and create a barrier to block out the caustic chemicals in spicy foods.
Another trick to preventing the agony of over-spicing is to chew and suck on some ice before you eat spicy foods. Ice lowers the temperature of the inside of your mouth, constricts the capillaries, and numbs your nerve endings and pain receptors. This has a neutralizing effect on inflammation and pain involved with eating the hot stuff.
After You Eat
Warm Water
Just as there are pre-spicy preparations you can take, there are also a few tricks for post-spice. When you're finished eating anything hot, rinse your mouth out with warm water. If you're eating a lot or over an extended period, do the same periodically between bites. Spice is cumulative, and the simple act of rinsing out the buildup can help you endure.
Another finishing move is to eat bread after you eat spicy food. This not only has an absorbing affect on the inside of your mouth, but throughout your entire digestive tract and finally in your stomach.
Avoid Carbonated Drinks
Don't drink carbonated beverages while you eat spicy food, at least until you're used to its effect on your body. Carbonated beverages can increase or exaggerate any gastrointestinal inflammation resulting from eating spicy foods.
Virtually every culture incorporates hot spice into some of their food.
Spicy food is not for everybody – but it can be. In a category all by itself, spicy food is tantalizing and unforgettable – and it doesn't have to be painful. Take the time to get your body, mouth, and mind acclimated to it, and pretty soon, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it.

WILBRAHAM – The Hampden-Wilbraham Regional School District Committee will be back on the road Tuesday with a meeting at Wilbraham Middle School.
The meeting starts at 7 p.m. Prior to the meeting, principal Daniel Roy will give a tour of the school.
Hampden-Wilbraham School Committee Chairman Peter T. Salerno at a recent School Committee meeting asked whether the schools were ready to have the School Committee return to its "road show."
Hampden-Wilbraham Regional School Superintendent M. Martin O'Shea said the schools are ready to welcome the School Committee.
He said the middle school students have been "shoe horned" into the middle school, but it is a comfortable fit.
Sixth-graders in Wilbraham were moved to Wilbraham Middle School this year after the School Committee decided to close Memorial School to save money.
The sixth-graders join the seventh- and eighth-graders in attending Wilbraham Middle School. Students in grades 2 through 5 are attending Stony Hill School and Soule Road School.
School Committee members Tuesday night will receive a presentation on special programs at Wilbraham Middle School.
Following that, they are scheduled to discuss a proposed bullying and intervention plan and to receive an update on the Minnechaug Regional High School building project.
Future School Committee meetings will be scheduled at both Soule Road School and Stony Hill School.
Then School Committee meetings will be scheduled at Thornton W. Burgess Middle School and Green Meadows Elementary School in Hampden so committee members can be updated on programs in those schools.

Week 10
Today, 4:05 p.m.
CenturyLink Field, Seattle, Wash.
TV: Ch. 2
Radio: ESPN 98.7 FM
3 matchups to watch
1. Austin Howard vs. Seattle's pass rushers
The Jets' right tackle will have a difficult test in front of him today. Howard has had a difficult year, giving up 34 pressures (sacks, hits and hurries) – fifth most among tackles according to Pro Football Focus and the most hits on the quarterback. In Seattle, he'll face one of the most aggressive and sack-happy defenses in the league. The Seahawks are tied for third in the NFL with 25 sacks. They are proficient in rushing from Howard's side. Rookie defensive Bruce Irvin has all five of his sacks from that side. Chris Clemons usually works from the other side of the line, but has taken 21 percent of his rushes against the right tackle. Altogether, the two have produced 33 pressures this season – or one roughly every seven dropbacks. Howard has allowed a pressure once every 8.6 dropbacks.
2. Marshawn Lynch vs. Jets linebackers
Lynch is the fulcrum of the Seahawks' offense. He's threatening enough to set up their play-action pass and a boar to bring down. "He's strong. First guy never brings him down. He's always dragging somebody behind," Eric Smith said. He's caused 32 missed tackles this year, according to Pro Football Focus, the third most of any running back, on the way to 881 rushing yards. The Jets, of course, have had their own issues with missed and broken tackles this year while standing 24th in the NFL by allowing 4.4 yards per carry. But as they've repeated continuously this week, the run defense has improved, giving up just 3.1 ypc over the last 100 carries. They may have to try to handle Lynch without Bart Scott, who is battling a toe injury.
3. Shonn Greene vs. Seahawks run defense
What Lynch is to the Seahawks is what the Jets had hoped Greene would be to their ground-and-pound offense. The burly running back has had a disappointing year, with 509 rushing yards and a 3.7 ypc – 35th best in the NFL. The good news for Greene is that his season is on an ascending path. He's averaged 4.6 ypc over his last three games and is facing a defense that just allowed 182 rushing yards to Adrian Peterson. Although that performance is not necessarily an indictment of Seattle's defense, that they rank 23rd in the NFL is more damning. Middle linebacker Bobby Wagner is a contender for Defensive Rookie of the Year but the run defense has shown holes around him. With Joe McKnight a gametime decision and Bilal Powell still bothered by a lingering shoulder injury, the running game burden will fall squarely on Greene's rugged shoulders.
Did you know?
Halfway through the year, Mike Tannenbaum's preseason projection seems to be off the mark. The Jets general manager said before the season began that he foresaw Mark Sanchez playing 80-90 percent of the snaps through 16 games. So far he's surpassed that, playing 95.6 percent of snaps. Tannenbaum's statement implied that Tebow would receive 10-20 percent of the snaps and he's on the basement of that estimate. Tebow has played in 54 offensive snaps – or six a game. They haven't all been at quarterback, of course, with Tebow lining up at wide receiver, tight end and running back. Perhaps at least one premature Tebow prediction will turn out to be true – but just like his use this season – it won't be how we expected it.
The number: 33.2
That is the percent of dropbacks on which Russell Wilson and the Seahawks run play-action plays, according to Pro Football Focus. They run it second most of any team in the NFL, behind the Redskins and Robert Griffin III, who run it 36.3 percent of the time. But it doesn't mean Seattle runs it so frequently because it works so well. Wilson's 81.1 QB rating on those plays ranks just 26th best among his peers and nine points lower than his rating on the other pass plays.
4 downs with cornerback Kyle Wilson
1. The Seahawks use the play-action pass on a third of their passing plays. Does that create difficulties for you?
No, as a corner run means play-action.That's what any corner is taught. To bring you to the run game, unless the defense calls for you to be in the run game, so it just depends on the wide out does.
2. So there is no difference at all from your perspective. You obviously would not want to get caught.
The corner shouldn't be looking in the backfield. Unless it's something where I'm needed on the run, that's my technique, then I wouldn't. The run just has to come to me.
The four quarterbacks who run the play-action the most this year are rookies or second-year players, does that show teams are unsure if they trust them to pass out of normal passing plays?
I don't know. Play-action is just based off the run game. If they have a good run game, play-action is just predicated off of that. They're trying to get guys looking into the backfield, not doing their job. Get somebody cheating up low or up and just throw right behind them. No, I don't think if that has to do with rookies or veterans.
3. With the Seahawks, everyone talks about their home-field advantage and how hard it is to play up there and they have such a good record there, why do teams play better at than on the road?
I don't know. We just have to continue to do what we're taught to do, from our coach (Dennis Thurman), to communicate. We've been having a good week communicating across the board, the secondary. Yeremiah (Bell) and LaRon (Landry) have been doing a phenomenal job so far. We're just looking to continue that.
4. Has it been any different for you since he went down? Have teams tried to pick on you? Not necessarily because you're the weak spot in the secondary, but because Antonio Cromartie is on the other side and he's been pretty good this year.
I just look at making opportunities to present themselves, continuing to do my job, do what the coaches say to do and play to my abilities, play to my strengths. Just looking excited, we'll definitely get some chances them throwing the ball. We're just trying to make them one-dimensional. It's the same every week. It's all about us and challenging ourselves.

My birthday used to be celebrated as if it were a national holiday. From the backyard pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey days to the touch football games on the beach at Easthampton, July 16 was a date inscribed in infamy.
My children forgot my birthday at their own peril. So they never did. Even when my son, Jason, was living in Australia, he told me that he could feel my disappointment when his card arrived two days late. "Mom, lighten up; I'm thousands of miles away," he said by phone on the 16th. No slack was cut.
This July, my son, a Portland, Ore., deputy district attorney, announced that he would be prosecuting his most important case -- 11 counts of assault and harassment against a wife beater. "I'd like to see you put this guy away," I said. He told me to come up and said that we could celebrate my birthday too.
I was in a courtroom when I went into labor with Jason. I was watching his father, an independent candidate for New York's 5th District congressional seat, defend himself against a challenge from the Democratic Party over a ballot slot he had won by petition. My mother was with me, and when I announced that the baby was coming, she said: "Hold on, let's wait for the verdict."
The verdict was an 8-pound, 2-ounce boy who held his head erect from the moment he was born and who began sizing up the world immediately. He let out a big laugh when he was less than 2 months old and has pretty much kept me laughing for 28 years.
Jason was born with an internal appointment book that knew, automatically, when he was going to tackle the challenges of life. I was his mother, not his personal schedule maker, so he learned according to Jason time, not mine. My task was, as he so aptly says now, to watch over him -- not to be mistaken for overprotecting. I was, essentially, his defense attorney. To his credit, he never came to me with a bogus case.
There was the time when he received an acceptance letter from UC San Diego and was notified a week later that it was a mistake. He called me at my office in Los Angeles, and I told him to get his paperwork together, that we were driving to San Diego.
Right before we entered the registrar's office, Jason turned to me and said: "Let me handle this. I'll give you the signal if I need you." We walked in, and I immediately checked to see if the windows would open high enough to throw a desk out.
Jason presented his position to a righteous clerk who quoted University of California education rules. He asked to see the code that she was using to determine his future. She lugged out a large tome crammed with small print and opened to the necessary page. Jason read the material to himself while I tried to gauge which piece of furniture I should affix myself to when the campus police tried to take me away.
Quietly, my son pointed out to the clerk that the rule about grade-point averages didn't apply to grades which were achieved in honors classes -- marks which are automatically rated higher -- and that he more than qualified for entry. She read for herself.
"Well," she said, "we'll have to call Sacramento about this."
"Call now," he gently requested.
She did. Sacramento concurred with my son.
"You're one lucky young man," she said. "We'll send you the paper work."
Jason looked my way. "No," I said, "I want to pay his fees and know his dorm-room number before we leave today."
A few days later, Jason told me about a dream: "I was pulling a heavy rope that was attached to a huge cage. You were in the cage, Mom, and I announced to no one in particular that if I wasn't taken seriously, I was going to unlock the cage, and there was no telling what would happen."
As I sat in the Portland courtroom and watched him select a jury, make his opening argument and approach the bench to dispute a defense statement, at some time during the proceedings, I wasn't watching my son anymore. I was watching a man responsible for the consequences of someone else's life.
At the recess, he asked what I thought about the jury, and I took out my notes, and we agreed that No. 8 had to be bumped. I felt honored to be asked.
"Happy birthday," he said to me when he dropped me off at the airport. "Happy Birthday," he sang to my answering machine.

The best films about rail travel
There's something about trains that makes them irresistible to film-makers. Maybe it's the confined space on board that heightens their capacity for drama, intrigue, romance or adventure – all played out at high speed, hurtling through the countryside.
Here are 10 movies in which trains feature strongly, set in different parts of Britain or various destinations abroad. Even if you can't still ride the trains depicted in these movies, you may still be able to visit the locations where they were shot. No Tube or subways here – we stay strictly overground.
The Titfield Thunderbolt (1952)
This story of stereotyped villagers, joining ranks to keep their branch line open, was dismissed on its release as a cosy minor Ealing comedy, but slowly gained in stature. History played a part: in the 1960s Dr Beeching's swingeing cuts, ushering in the closure of thousands of British stations and lines, gave the film a nostalgic glow, evoking a time when train travel, through idyllic countryside, could be pure leisurely joy. Imagine. That sentiment lives on in the popularity of reopened branch lines throughout Britain. A digitally restored version of the film, marking its 60th anniversary, will be available on DVD from January 14.
Do it yourself
Most of Britain's heritage and tourist railways, from the Bodmin and Wenford in Cornwall to the Strathspey in the far north of Scotland, and its railway preservation groups, are represented by the Heritage Railway Association. Its website (heritagerailways.com) has details of everything from day trips and short breaks to courses in engine driving.
The Darjeeling Limited (2007)
Wes Anderson's quirky comedy-drama sharply divided audiences and critics, but it's a fine advertisement for luxury train travel in India. Three affluent American brothers (Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody and Jason Schwartzman), barely on speaking terms since their father's death, board the titular train as a journey of spiritual rediscovery. It's an emotional trip for three melancholy souls, unconsoled by wealth and even their absurdly exotic luggage. It looks ravishing, with stop-offs at a palace in Jodphur and the lakeside city of Udaipur.
Do it yourself
The Darjeeling Limited doesn't exist, but there are Indian trains offering comparable style and service, including the Royal Rajasthan on Wheels (royalrajasthanonwheels.com) and the Maharajas' Express (themaharajasexpressindia.com). The latter, which began as a joint venture between Indian railways and the tour operator Cox & Kings, has featured in Telegraph Travel. Several of the companies listed in our roundup of rail tour operators sell trips on Indian trains.
Night Mail (1936)
This 25-minute British documentary masterpiece tracks the journey of an overnight LMS mail train from London to Scotland. Produced by the GPO Film Unit, it boasts a remarkable array of talent: it's narrated by John Grierson and has music by Benjamin Britten and poetry from W H Auden, whose verse "This is the Night Mail crossing the border/Bringing the cheque and the postal order" cunningly suggests the sound of the steam train clattering along the tracks. Movingly, the film hints at how letters bring people separated by distance closer together.
Do it yourself
You can still take an overnight train to Scotland from London Euston, and be lulled to sleep by the rhythm of the rails. There are full details on how to arrange it on seat61.com, which our readers voted their favourite travel website in the 2012 Telegraph Travel Awards.
Train Pulling into Station (1895)
No film in history has had such an astonishing effect on audiences as this apparently unremarkable 50-second short by Auguste and Louis Lumière. One of the first films ever screened for the public, it simply shows a train approaching La Ciotat, a coastal village near Marseille. The Lumières placed their camera close to the platform edge, and when viewers saw the footage they reportedly rushed from their seats, convinced that the train would burst from the screen and crush them.
The film is commemorated in the restoration of the world's oldest existing cinema, the Eden in La Ciotat, which is due to be reopened next year by Steven Spielberg.

Brief Encounter (1945)
A great train movie with precious little footage of trains in motion. This evergreen classic stars Celia Johnson and Trevor Howard as a middle-class couple, both married to others, who conduct a chaste, restrained (and doomed) romance involving weekly meetings, notably in the refreshment room of a railway station. They're noble, moral and self-sacrificing – prized qualities in Britain in the aftermath of the war.

Much of the film was shot at Carnforth Station in Lancashire (carnforthstation.co.uk), now a heritage centre and effectively a shrine to fans of the film; its famed refreshment room has been restored to look as it did in the 1940s.
Murder on the Orient Express (1974)
A lavish adaptation of Agatha Christie's famed whodunit, with the detective Hercule Poirot (Albert Finney) and all 13 murder suspects present and correct aboard the snowbound luxury train. It boasts an absurdly starry cast list – Bacall, Bisset, Ingrid Bergman, Connery, Gielgud and Vanessa Redgrave for starters. Preposterous, of course, but good fun, with lots of overripe acting. Its exterior scenes, even Istanbul station, were recreated in French locations.

The best way to get a taste of this brand of high life is to take a ride on the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express (orient-express.com) – though a five-night journey from Paris all the way to Istanbul will set you back £11,000.
The Railway Children (1970)
"Oh, my Daddy, my Daddy!" Can anyone remain unmoved by the line that made Jenny Agutter a lifelong British national treasure? She plays the eldest of three Edwardian children exiled with their mother to a house in the Yorkshire Dales when their father is wrongly accused of spying. There's a railway at the bottom of the garden, which is the basis for their adventures – including a potentially lethal landslide on the track.

The film was shot on the Keighley and Worth Valley line (kwvr.co.uk), and features the station of Oakworth, now restored and complete with gas lamps.
The Lady Vanishes (1938)
Few film-makers used trains and exploited their cinematic potential as frequently as Alfred Hitchcock. This thriller's a delight, set on a pre-war train largely populated by foreigners, travelling through the Balkans but delayed by an avalanche. It made a star of Margaret Lockwood, as a young woman striking up a friendship with an elderly governess – who abruptly disappears. It also introduced the great duo Charters and Caldicott (Basil Radford, Naunton Wayne), cricket-loving duffers who keep their steely British resolve well hidden.

Interior scenes were shot at the old Gaumont-British studios in Shepherd's Bush and exterior train scenes in Hampshire, some on the Longmoor Military Railway, which was demolished in the 1970s. Liss parish council (whose emblem is a steam engine) has a walk that uses some of the former railway trackbed.
Shanghai Express (1932)
A curious but intriguing and beautifully shot black-and-white melodrama set aboard a train attacked by Chinese bandits. Marlene Dietrich is the heroine, a courtesan named Shanghai Lily, while Clive Brook is her old flame, a British officer. The director, Josef von Sternberg, eccentrically declared that he wanted everything about the film to evoke the rhythm of a speeding train – so its characters say their lines in sing-song, stop-go fashion. No one on the film went within a thousand miles of Shanghai; it was shot in Hollywood at Paramount Studios, though the glorious (and recently restored) Santa Fe Railroad Depot in San Bernardino, California stood in for a Chinese railway station.

The latest incarnation of the Shanghai Express, introduced in July 2011, covers the 819 miles between Beijing and Shanghai in four hours, 48 minutes. For details of how to book a trip, see seat61.com/China.htm#Beijing%20-%20Shanghai.
The San Bernardino History and Railroad Museum, located in the Railroad Depot, tells the story of the town and the railroad. For a virtual tour, see sbdepotmuseum.com/photo-histories/museum-virtual-tour.
Doctor Zhivago (1965)
Two big-screen images from this romantic epic immediately come to mind: the exquisite face of Julie Christie as its heroine, Lara, and the sight of smoke billowing from a train as it cuts through miles of snowbound Russian countryside between Moscow and the Urals. Aboard are the doctor-poet Zhivago (Omar Sharif) and members of his family, fleeing from possible arrest by the Bolsheviks.

It's not a journey tourists might wish to create: in the film, this was a heavily guarded cattle train. The Trans-Siberian Express, though might capture most closely the landscape's visual, snowy splendour. See Anthony Lambert's guide to what you can expect on the Trans-Siberian and how to book it.
