SHOCK VIDEO: Woman falls off subway platform, gets hit by, crawls out alive
(Liz Klimas) A Czech woman who appeared to be having a hard time keeping her eyes open, struggling to stay awake, wandered too close to the edge of a Prague subway station's platform and fell onto the tracks. Just seconds later, a train rolled into the station and over her. Amazingly, this story has a happy ending — as she survived.
The incident occurred Monday and was captured on the station's CCTV cameras.
Footage from a distance and close up, shows the hooded woman having a hard time maintaining her balance and hovering around the dashed safety line for passengers to stand behind. Right as she gets daringly close to the edge, a fellow passenger finally reaches for her, but it's too late.
It takes a few more seconds for others on the platform to spring into any sort of action, like telling the train conductor of what happened. But people can be seen checking out the area beneath the train where the woman fell.
The conductor emerges, runs over to where the woman is and appears to be speaking with her. Based on the movement of another member of the station's staff along the train car, it seems that the woman crawled to a larger opening where she was then helped out from underneath.

Government Travel Group Honors GSA Executive
June 16, 2008
Contact: Jen Millikin, (202) 501-1231
WASHINGTON — A senior travel executive at the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) is the winner of the first-ever National Travel Forum Icon Award, the agency announced today.
Becky Rhodes, Deputy Associate Administrator within GSA's Office of Travel, Transportation and Asset Management, received the award during the 2008 National Travel Forum, in Atlanta, Georgia last week. The forum is the largest industry event for government travel professionals.
"Becky is the type of federal employee that the American people deserve and expect. Her primary concern is making the federal government work better and more efficiently," said Kevin Messner, GSA Acting Associate Administrator of Office of Governmentwide Policy. "This award appropriately recognizes her significant contributions to reducing the cost of travel, increasing the government's productivity with travel, and understanding the future of travel."
In making the presentation, National Business Travel Association (NBTA) Executive Director and Chief Operating Officer Bill Connors also announced that future awards will be called the "Becky Rhodes National Travel Forum Icon Award."
"I am truly honored to be singled out amongst numerous travel policy professionals who are the best and brightest in our field," Ms. Rhodes said. "I appreciate the sound work NBTA does, and am proud to be forever associated with the key contributions of future recipients."
GSA provides a centralized delivery system of products and services to the federal government, leveraging its enormous buying power to get the best value for taxpayers.
• Founded in 1949, GSA manages more than one-fourth of the government's total procurement dollars and influences the management of $500 billion in federal assets, including 8,600 government-owned or leased buildings and 208,000 vehicles.
• GSA helps preserve our past and define our future, as a steward of more than 425 historic properties, and as manager of USA.gov, the official portal to federal government information and services.
• GSA's mission to provide superior workplaces, expert technology solutions, acquisition services, purchasing and E-Gov travel solutions and management policies, at best value, allows federal agencies to focus on their core missions.
Did You Know? In December 1995, GSA created its Office of Governmentwide Policy to consolidate its policy functions into a single organization.

Thursday was a day of giving in San Bernardino, where the Salvation Army continued a tradition, offering Thanksgiving meals to those in need.
It was turkey and all the trimmings on West 5th Street.
Volunteers served, people ate and they all gave thanks.
Salvation Army Corp Maj. Steve Ball welcomed diners with a blessing and invited them to "stay as long as they liked and to enjoy the fellowship."
He estimated the Corps would serve about 200 meals during the annual Thanksgiving event.
With the economic downturn of recent years, Ball said the need is greater as more people lose homes and fall on hard times.
He's seen a 15 to 20 percent drop in donations of food items they rely on day to day.
About 100 volunteers helped - more than was even needed. Some simply dropped by to help.
It's not just Thanksgiving when the Corps could use the help, it's year around, said Maj. Nancy Ball.
Chelisama Fishback, with daughter Skylee Fishback, age 2, enjoyed a free meal.
When asked what it meant to her, she blurted, "Are you kidding me? We practically have nothing, being new in a place like this."
Yolanda Williams of Highland, dining with her daughter Brieann Tates, 7, said, "We have family we can visit, but I'd rather come here."
Williams stayed at The Salvation Army shelter for two months in 2010, but now has a job, a car and is working to complete her bachelor's degree online.
"I feel like this is more my family than my family," she said.

9/11 Families Seek Urgency On Security Bill
The recent chilling news of al Qaeda's renewed strength and the warnings of possible terrorist attacks means the utmost urgency must be applied to legislation implementing recommendations made by the 9/11 Commission in 2004.
Important matters such as Iraq and immigration have understandably absorbed Congress this year. Additionally, the slow and painful progress of this national security bill is attributable to the magnitude of its scope. But an underlying current of turf protection by competing Committees has prolonged the process far too long. Every day that this bill is delayed puts American lives at risk.
When this 9/11 Commission bill is finally enacted, our national security will be considerably strengthened. Every area of vulnerability that presently exists on land, on the sea and in the air is an open invitation for terrorists to exploit. As 9/11 family members, we once again remind the country of what is at stake and implore Congress to expedite the steps necessary to close those loopholes.
A conference is the forum where compromises between the House and Senate are hammered out. It is a cornerstone of our democratic legislative process. When that phase begins, we expect both wisdom and urgency from the conferees. The American people deserve nothing less.
We believe that this bill has wide, bipartisan support and we therefore call for its passage before another recess intervenes. Progress must not be delayed, not even for one more day. We have a message to Congress: "The time to send this bill to the President is NOW!"

What is it?
The Lilliput 669GL is a brand new 7" touchscreen monitor featuring HDMI connectivity.
The Verdict:
When weighing the new features with some of the things still missing in a 2010 Lilliput model, its clear to see that the 669GL is the first model in what many hope will be the future of small touchscreen monitors. Lilliput obviously spent time and focus on getting HDMI/DVI capabilities to work, and they DO work. This is the clearest Lilliput display out there, as long as you are not working in the sun.
See the Lilliput 669GL on the mp3Car Store here.
What's in the box?
The Lilliput 669GL comes packed with practically every kind of cable you would need to use with the monitor. Included is an HDMI to HDMI-USB cable, HDMI to DVI-USB cable, VGA to VGA-USB cable, and a DIN to composite (2 input) cable. For power, the 669GL comes with both a home A/C adapter plug and a 12v DC car charger cable. The 669GL also comes with a standard VESA mount, remote control with battery, touchscreen driver CD, and instruction manual.
The 669GL-70NP/C/T is the latest 7" touchscreen monitor Lilliput has released. To my knowledge it is the first 7" monitor of its kind to feature on-board HDMI connection. The creators were wise to leave compatibility with the tried and true VGA connection, and even threw a HDMI to DVI cable to further enhance compatibility. Regardless of your preferred input source, the Lilliput 669 has you covered.
Though it makes hardly any difference when connecting to 669GL to a standard computer, car PC enthusiast should find the HDMI connection a lifesaver when it comes to getting a monitor installed in a vehicle. This is of course is provided they have the motherboard and/or video card that accepts either an HDMI or DVI connector. Prior models of Lilliput and other small monitors in the car PC community have suffered from screen ghosting and/or flickering as a result of having to run long strands of analog cabling inside a motor vehicle where interference issues tend to be more prevalent. I made it a point to test this issue with a full-digital HDMI connection. My aging Lilliput 629 installed in the dash of my RSX has always had some level of flickering and the ghosting of images and text is just something I grew to live with. I'm happy to say that the connecting the HDMI from my Intel DG45FC motherboard directly to the Lilliput 669 immediately solved BOTH problems.
I also noticed shortly after powering up the PC that the colors on the screen just appear deeper than with previous Lilliput screens. I don't know if it's the digital connection or perhaps the new LCD panel installed in the 669GL, but the color and contrast is among the best I've seen on a 7" screen. Text appears sharper than before, even in the 1024x768 photos shown above. With an HDMI connection the screen is fully capable with 1080i/p playback, a feat that's extremely impressive for a rather small screen.The Lilliput 669GL features an all new bezel, new LCD panel (Innolux AT070TN82), and a new, slightly larger controller board. This of course means someone wanting to upgrade from an older lilliput may find complications in there existing fabrication when switching to the 669GL. The HDMI sticks out more than the previous VGA cable. This coupled with the larger controller board means the 669GL is not easily compatible with enclosures such as the double-din enclosure that MP3car store sells. I was able to just barely make the enclosure work by using a right-angle HDMI adapter and alternate means of securing the controller board to the enclosure.
The main problem you encounter with the 669GL occurs when you place this monitor into direct sunlight. For some unknown reason, the manufacturer decided to scale back the brightness on the 669GL. The rating in the monitor's specification is just 250 nits. If there were one absolute bummer when it comes to the 669GL it's that its just not meant to be used sunlight. The colors completely wash out, and because the screen is not transflective you must deal with a tremendous amount of glare before even beginning to interpret what's on screen. Below are two comparison photos; the first is with no flash taken with my digital camera, the second with flash and a rather low ISO.
Unfortunately, the brightness on the LCD isn't the only thing missing from the Lilliput 669GL. It does not currently have the ability to automatically switch to an auxiliary input upon connection of a 12v source. This means us with rear-view cameras must come up with another plan to see what we're backing up into. Prior model Lilliputs like the 629 had the ability to modify the controller panel to accommodate this feature but to this point it's not possible to do on the 669GL.One feature that's missing that perhaps will not affect car PC users is the lack of backlit buttons on the front of the enclosure. To my knowledge this is the first Lilliput that has had this missing. The power button lights up, barely, but the other buttons remain in the dark.The last feature that didn't make the cut is the ability to control the screens brightness via a photosensor on the enclosure. At first glance it appears the IR receiver on the front of the Lilliput bezel has been modified to accommodate this in the same manner than competing Xenarc and other devices do, but in testing I see no difference in screen brightness between light and dark rooms.
The Positive:
• HDMI connectivity
• Abundance of wiring options
• Cleaner display with rich color and better contrast
• Native resolution of 800x480, with the ability to display 1080p
• Auto-power on when video signal is detected
• Priced well to compete with other manufacturers
The Negative:
• Lower brightness rating than competing products
• No auto-switch capability
• No auto-dimmer found in competing products
• STILL no transflective!
• New controller board means incompatility with some bezels on the market
The Verdict:
When weighing the new features with some of the things still missing in a 2010 Lilliput model, its clear to see that the 669GL is the first model in what many hope will be the future of small touchscreen monitors. Lilliput obviously spent time and focus on getting HDMI/DVI capabilities to work, and they DO work. This is the clearest Lilliput display out there, as long as you are not working in the sun.

USC seeks volunteers for study on postpartum depression
The University of South Carolina's Arnold School of Public Health is seeking volunteers for a study to determine whether bright-light therapy can relieve symptoms of postpartum depression.
About 15 percent of new mothers experience postpartum symptoms that frequently go undiagnosed and untreated, and that estimate is probably conservative, said Shannon Cornelius, an exercise-science doctoral student who is leading the study.
"A driving force behind this project is that there is no Food and Drug Administration-approved medication for these women. There have been no studies to see what happens when medications currently available to treat postpartum depression pass through to the infant in the mother's milk," she said.
The ongoing study is recruiting 20 new mothers who have given birth within a year. Participants can have a variety of symptoms, including depression, loss of interest or pleasure in activities, sleep and/or appetite disturbances, loss of energy/fatigue and and feelings of worthlessness/guilt.
After an initial interview, eligible mothers will have a baseline fMRI – a specialized MRI scan to map brain activity – and complete baseline questionnaires about their mood, fatigue, sleep quality and how they are feeling.
For two weeks, one group of women will self-administer bright-light therapy for 30 minutes a day upon rising. The procedure involves sitting or working near a device, called a light-therapy box, which gives off a bright light that mimics natural outdoor light.
Other study participants will undergo a similar therapy using a negative-ion generator for the same duration.
During the course of the study, participants also will be asked to wear a wrist monitor, called an actigraph, which looks and acts just like a wristwatch. The device will be used to measure sleep quality and amount of daily light exposure. The actigraph gives an objective reading of how much sleep the mother is getting. Lack of sleep also can contribute to depressive symptoms, she said.
The end of the study will feature another round of questions and a second fMRI to measure any physiological changes that occur with the therapy.
Participants' identities will be confidential throughout the study, she said.
For information on participation in the study, contact Shannon Cornelius at 803-777-7296 or email, email@example.com.

A good solution for small spaces.
By Marty Movie Buff
from San Francisco
We had lots of DVDs overflowing our various storage units. This unit stores a lot in a small space. The design would blend well with most decors.The one flaw is that the left-hand sliding door groove stops short of the right side. It does not allow the door to completely clear the shelves on the left side to the middle, so that about two incehes of space on each shelf is useless. With six shelves, that's at least 12 DVDs short of the advertised capacity.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

nice looking, but...
By moody bluer

It was kind of difficult to put together (still not finished) mainly because the back panels didn't quite fit, leaving gaps.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Quality manufacturing. Though it is not true solid wood, the composition overall seems strong. The wood veneer is attractive. Went together without the usual problems one may experience assembling pre-fab furniture. Holes lined up, wood did not splinter or break. Looks great assembled. Take care in placement. Stands more firmly on wood/tile floor, though putting a small spacer under front edge on carpet so it tips backwards toward wall would suffice as well. Used it to store canned goods in a small apartment we leased temporarily. Prior to assembling, I covered glass with Gila "Rice" paper so you couldn't see contents. Really elegant look! Would definitely purchase from this company again...and again! :)

Great product for my needs
By Rod Man
from Fort Mill, SC
I bought this item for storage of DVD movies, and it does a great job. It was very well packaged, and the assembly was easy with clear and easy-to-follow instructions. The only drawback is that there are several small plastic stabilizers to be installed behind the backing board, and they were flimsy, didn't install well, and apparently serve some purpose which made no sense to me.

Nice DVD Cabinet
By Tuna
from Mustang, OK
The only complaint I have is that the left sliding door does not slide all the way across the cabinet like the right (front) door.This door's grooves are shorter than the other doors grooves, probably to provide access to the handle when the door is slide fully to the right.The problem with that is that the DVDs on the right side of the left shelves cannot be reached or removed if the shelf is full. I leave the left shelf less full than the right so I can reach all the DVDs there.

Need a furniture assembly man along!
By music lover
from Phoenix, AZ
Storage of CD's is adequate and can organize easily. Construction is simple but not made in the US and parts do not fit, the backing was too tall for the sides and so required specialized tools to grind it down, which did not come along with the instructions.Had to repack to return which was awkward and heavy job for single female.Have not constructed the replacement yet because of time constraints, and am praying parts will fit.The photograph in the catalogue looks like the perfect piece for my needs.

Looks nice, but...
By garryinlb
from Long Beach, CA
Using this cabinet to store CDs. In assembling, the center back support did not tighten correctly. I had to reinforce with a bracket screwed on. There is a design flaw where the inside sliding door does not allow access to several inches of the left-hand shelves at the center of the cabinet. Some of the veneer has chipped and peeled away on the edges of the base. It would help the smoothness of sliding the doors if there was a metal groove on the base for the runners to travel on instead of a groove cut into the wood.

By Antonio

From the catalogue it seemed identical to a product I already own. However, assembly hardware was difficult and poorly aligned. I was surprised very common and proven assembly CAM systems were not used. It was guess work to make connections taking several days of patience. My gold standard unit I already own has a metal well for wheels to slide in - far superior to the low quality finish of the dug out wood track in the HS model with all the splinters - makes for a jerky flimsy door - what should have been the highest attention to detail. The unit was splintered on most corners. The design is flawed and the production of poor quality and not due to shipping as packaging was the usual very high standard HS. I would return this item if it wasn't so bulky and so hard to assemble in first place. I also got the unit in 2 shipments weeks apart - something not noted in the catalogue or on-line. I will not buy HS furniture again and will hold on any future purchase.Very disappointed

Not worth the money
By Little Sarge
from Camp Hill, PA
I am extremely disappointed with this purchase, for a number of reasons. First the quality of the "wood product" used in the making of this product was extremely poor. The laminated finish used to cover this inferior wood product had not been glued or adhered properly, and the first piece I took out of the box, this laminated finish had peeled away. In step 1 of the assembly process, 2 of the cam bolts did not fit properly into the openings made for them on piece 1 and 2. They had to be worked in with pliers. In step 4, the instructions say to gather 4 of the "E" screws, and from the front of the unit, to screw them into the back board. Not possible. There are no predrilled holes for these screws in the back board and will have to be put in with a drill (which I do not own), also the screws are too small for the holes in the back panels. Step 5, what is the purpose of 16 plastic card pieces which are to be screwed into the back of each board, to which there are also no predrilled holes? I haven't attempted to put the doors on yet, because both doors need to have the rubber gaskets pushed back into place on the inside of the glass, as they are loose and in 2 places, the gaskets are not even in the frame, but completely loose. I ordered two of these, and want to return the 2nd one without being charged for additional freight charges, and the product is so poorly constructed. The only thing that appears to be in good condition are the "wood shelves" of which the notches for the pegs that hold them in place are not all drilled out properly, some will have to be hand tooled out so they can rest on the pegs. All in all, not a good product.
Hammacher Schlemmer Response: We apologize for your experience with the assembly of this cabinet. While we hope that you are able to complete assembly and enjoy this cabinet, please do not hesitate to contact us with questions or for parts at -800-321-1484.

A pediatrician from the University of South Carolina School of Medicine has been elected to lead the nation's most prestigious organization for the health and well-being of children.
Marion Burton
Dr. Marion Burton, director of community pediatrics at the medical school and associate dean for clinical affairs, was installed Oct. 19 as president-elect of the American Academy of Pediatrics. In October 2010, Burton will become president of the organization, which comprises 60,000 pediatricians.
Burton said the award gives him the opportunity to broaden his work for children.
"This is an opportunity to serve children and my pediatric colleagues in a broader sense than I have ever been able to do before," Burton said. "The American Academy of Pediatrics is internationally respected for its commitment to the health and well-being of infants, children, adolescents, young adults and their families. I consider my election as president-elect to be an extraordinary honor personally and professionally."
Dr. Richard Hoppmann, dean of the medical school, said Burton's unwavering commitment to children and families will serve him well as the AAP president.
"Throughout his career in medicine, Dr. Burton has been an advocate for children and their parents," Hoppmann said. "It comes as no surprise to those of us who have worked with him that he will lead the American Academy of Pediatrics. He represents outstanding faculty in our School of Medicine, and he brings distinction to our medical school and the University of South Carolina through his leadership."
A native of Abbeville, Burton was reared by his grandparents after his parents died. He graduated from Abbeville High School and earned his bachelor's degree from Clemson University. After graduating from the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC), he continued his medical training in Charleston and at the Medical College of Georgia. Burton began his career in pediatrics in Anderson and taught in a primary-care residency program. He joined the faculty of the University of South Carolina's School of Medicine in 1991 to establish a Division of Community Pediatrics and became medical director for the S.C. Department of Health and Human Services. He is responsible for reviewing Medicaid policies and services to ensure medical efficacy and approves treatment plans for individual patient cases for Medicaid, which provides healthcare coverage to approximately 930,000 low-income and disabled South Carolinians each year.

Heroes & Goats (Batch-Slapped Edition)
DISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed in this post are for entertainment purposes only and in no way reflect the beliefs of the management or administration of this delightful website. Any similarities to persons alive, dead, or Lee Evans is purely coincidental. So without the play-calling genius of Cam Cameron or the play-challenging brilliance of John Harbaugh influencing my performance, I humbly present to you this clearly ELITE edition of-Heroes & Goats...
1) RAY RICE- Not quite sure what you need to do to prove you deserve to touch the ball more each game, date Cameron's daughter perhaps? But you never complain and always give us your BEST, which in my opinion, makes you the best thing about our offense.:respect
2) ED REED- Our old reliable sure-fire HOF Safety is still making more big plays than Broadway week in and week out, even if his facial appearance suggests that he's a ranked competitor on the bumfight circuit.
3) JUSTIN TUCKER- You rock waaaay more than any rookie kicker has the right to.
4) RAVENS SPECIAL TEAMS- I may joke about the fact that Harbs is a Special Teams coach, but the truth is you guys have really stepped up consistently for this team... Kudos!
5) ANQUAN BOLDIN- I'm calling bullshit on that offensive PI call in the 4th Qtr and a false start penalty doesn't negate the fact that you carried a good chunk of the load for us throughout the game and are probably still the most intimidating WR in the game from a sheer toughness standpoint.:respect
Honorable Mentions:
1. Vonta Leach- The Juggernaut strikes again! They may STILL be removing shredded pieces of Casey Hampton's uniform and dignity out of the turf at M&T Bank today! Also, I never knew that a FB/TE hybrid existed until you arrived, bro!
2. Bernard Pierce- You are an excellent change-of-pace back and a real threat to tote the rock all the way to the endzone each time you carry it. Excellent performance Sunday, but you're still carrying Ray Rice's shoulder pads after practice, rookie.
3. Offensive Line- Actually you did a nice job of run blocking and giving Flacco time in the pocket to throw. Not your fault that he wasted it like Justin Timberlake in that sci-fi flick with Amanda Seyfried.:grbac:
4. Corey Graham- What can I say about a guy thrust in a starting role who comes up big each week? In the words of Samuel L. Jackson: "GOOD JOB, MOTHAFUCKA!!"
1) JOE FLACCO- Why do you feel it's okay to totter around in the pocket and take unnecessary hits/turnovers instead of throwing the ball away or (God Forbid) USING YOUR FUCKING LEGS, Sloppy Joe?:grbac::grbac: No wonder Mike Tomlin's Omar Epps lookin' ass wanted to shake your hand instead of Harbaugh's after the game... Your inaccuracy, incompetence and all-around poor play continually gave his team new life. Being that the game didn't start until 4:25pm ET and given your suckass performance, I'm wondering what exactly were you doing at 4:20?:grbac:
2) JOHN HARBAUGH/CAM CAMERON- I had to watch Third String Charlie Fucking Batch cry victoriously on the visitor's sideline in our stadium because you two bungling hemorrhoids have the combined brain power and situational awareness of Elmer Fudd.:bag::grbac: Harbs with a challenge flag is downright embarassing and limiting the touches of our best offensive player yet again proves to me that Cameron either doesn't understand game film or you don't care.
3) PAUL KRUGER- I can't say this is unexpected given the fact that this team has committed a shitload of stupid personal fouls this season.:grbac: You've gotta understand that there's a thin line between badass and dumbass in today's NFL, peckerhead...
4) PASS RUSH- Yeah, you got Biatch down a few times, but far too often he had enough time to pop a couple Viagra and rub one out to one of Ben's teen porn mags before completing a pass. No es bueno.:bag::grbac:
5) TORREY SMITH- Your drops and overall lackluster effort can probably be partially credited to frustration due to Flacco's plentiful overthrows/underthrows/wild throws/WTF throws, but I can never excuse such shenanigans from a Maryland Terrapin.
Re: Heroes & Goats (Batch-Slapped Edition)
I second that. ESPECIALLY the Timberlake bit

Re: Heroes & Goats (Batch-Slapped Edition)
Something I haven't seen mentioned here (I try not to post after a Ravens loss. I can't deal with the bipolar fans) is how on the replay of the sack/fumble, not one receiver had his head turned toward the QB looking for the pass.
I know Flacco should have probably tucked and ran, but why was there no slant, dig, hitch, hell any play to get the ball out quickly. This is the problem with this offense.
Torrey smith said in an interview that he had to learn how to play receiver in this system because he was use to cuttting. In this offense he said you just run and kinda stay full speed. WHAT?!!!!
Re: Heroes & Goats (Batch-Slapped Edition)
I guess the relationship Joe has with every receiver except Pitta and Boldin must not be strong enough. Those are the only two I see coming back to the ball at times. But still... Joe must run or get rid of it when nothing's there. Taking unneccessary strip sacks is dumber than a clone containing the DNA of Marty Bass and Terry Bradshaw.

Re: Heroes & Goats (Batch-Slapped Edition)
If they were'nt blitzing, then I don't think you can expect the receivers to make any route adjustments. It's on Oher to block better, and if that fails, Flacco needs to throw it away or tuck-and-hold.
If the Steelers were blitzing, and no assignments were changed. Then yeah, that's a problem.... I will add that the Ravens took advantage of Polamaulu blitzing early in the game with quick hits over the middle.
Re: Heroes & Goats (Batch-Slapped Edition)
Thank you. Your goats section was spot on and helped, me get that stinky turd of a loss out of my mouth.
On To DC. Beat the deadskins!

Re: Heroes & Goats (Batch-Slapped Edition)
I really thought Oher would prove that he is servicable if not good LT this year.... Boy I was wrong... He stinks.
Re: Heroes & Goats (Batch-Slapped Edition)
Cam and/or Joe are overly attached the low percentage long routes to Smith. Torrey is most dangerous when he is between a defender and the sideline (his money move is the post-reception spin back in towards the field). Quicker, shorter higher percentage routes were working v. Pitts. (e.g the dump offs to Leach, who I'm glad to see absorbing some of those tackles at the sidelines on outlets - that will help prolong Rice's career).

Sons of the Pioneers leader Bob Nolan is generally regarded as one of the finest Western songwriters of all time, penning classics of the genre like "Tumblin' Tumbleweeds" and "Cool Water." Nolan was born Robert Clarence Nobles on April 1, 1908, in the Canadian town of Point Hatfield, New Brunswick. His father served in the United States Army during World War I, and later changed his name to Nolan and retired to Arizona; Bob lived with his aunts in Boston, and at 14 moved west to join his father. He attended the University of Arizona, studying music and poetry, and in 1927 left school to ride the rails and work on his singing and songwriting.
He settled in Los Angeles in 1929, where he initially worked as a lifeguard while trying to get a singing career off the ground. In 1931, he joined a group called the Rocky Mountaineers, which also included singer Leonard Slye and fiddler Bob Nichols. Frustrated over the group's lack of success, Nolan departed after just a few months and took a job as a caddy at a Bel Air golf course; nonetheless, he had forged a productive working relationship with Slye. Slye, in turn, left the Rocky Mountaineers in 1932 along with Nolan's replacement, Tim Spencer, to form a short-lived group; the following year, Slye convinced both Spencer and Nolan to return to music, and they reconvened as the Pioneer Trio, with Nolan singing tenor and playing the bass. Their name was soon changed to the Sons of the Pioneers, in order to reflect their actual age.
Nolan had continued to work on his songwriting, and the Sons of the Pioneers soon began performing his originals on a nationally syndicated radio show. "Tumblin' Tumbleweeds" became their signature song and a country & western standard, and it was one of the first songs the group recorded when it signed with Decca in 1934. Other Nolan-penned classics from the era included "Way Out There," "There's a Roundup in the Sky," "One More Ride," and "Cool Water," the latter of which would have remained the group's signature song were it not for "Tumblin' Tumbleweeds."
Their top-notch repertoire and appealing harmony singing quickly made them stars, and they appeared in their first full-length Western movie, The Old Homestead, in 1935. After supporting the likes of Bing Crosby and Gene Autry onscreen, the group signed an exclusive agreement to appear in Charles Starrett's Westerns in late 1937 (it lasted until 1941). In 1938, Leonard Slye won an audition to star in his own film, and took the name Roy Rogers; he was a smash success and left to concentrate on his own career, leaving Nolan the undisputed leader of the Sons of the Pioneers.
Nolan continued to write some of the group's biggest hits, and contributed songs like "Echoes from the Hills," "I Follow the Stream," "Chant of the Wanderer," "At the Rainbow's End," and "The Touch of God," among others. In 1941, the Sons of the Pioneers' contract with Starrett and Columbia Pictures was up, and they left to join up with Roy Rogers at Republic, appearing as his musical sidekicks in numerous films through 1948, ending with Nighttime in Nevada. As leader of the group and Rogers' longtime friend, Nolan was often featured in prominent, dialogue-heavy supporting roles, but never pursued movie stardom of his own.
In 1944, Nolan switched the group's label to RCA Victor, where their recording career enjoyed a renaissance, thanks in part to fuller, more contemporary arrangements. The group remained quite popular up through the late '40s, but Nolan -- always an introvert by nature -- decided to leave in 1949, wanting more time to himself and less on the road. He did continue to write songs, and even rejoined the group from 1955-1958, though only as a studio vocalist. He was elected to the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1971 (as was old bandmate Tim Spencer), and the Sons of the Pioneers were inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1976. Nolan recorded a solo album, The Sound of a Pioneer, in 1979, which spotlighted some of his past successes. He died of a heart attack on June 16, 1980.

LONG BEACH - El Lobo is a far cry from the typical chain restaurants that have come to define Mexican cuisine.
Instead, the owner makes daily trips to the farmers market for authentic food in a rustic restaurant located in the heart of the Bluff Heights neighborhood.
First-time chef Sonia Gomez opened the 40-seat eatery five months ago. Gomez, 44, former general manager of Alegria Cocina Latina on Pine Avenue, has been in the restaurant industry for 25 years.
But on July 1, her dream of opening her own restaurant came to fruition. She is not only the executive chef, but partner at El Lobo, located at 2941 E. Broadway.
"The passion started as a child with my mother's recipes," she said. "I have always loved classic Mexican food that was health conscious and light, but exceptionally well done."
Gomez teamed up with Long Beach restaurateurs David and Luca Carteni and Stefano Procaccini of Passaparola Trattoria Italiano and La Parolaccia, located next door to El Lobo.
"David and Stefano let me loose and left it up to me," she said. "These are my family recipes, ones that I have been making since I was 15, and I think that people really appreciate the classiness of the menu."
Gomez said the idea was to have something "new, fresh and small," but they wanted to "do it right and different from what's being done in big restaurants."
"I go to the farmers market and pick my ingredients every day for that night's menu," she said.
Though being in the kitchen wasn't previously on Gomez's resume, she has flourished.
"I have been in and out of every aspect of the restaurant business," she said. "But being in the kitchen, that is a whole different beast, but I love it. I really love being in the kitchen."
The menu includes classic entrees such as open-fire roasted poblano peppers stuffed with pork picadillo (pears, plums and almonds) drizzled with walnut cream sauce and sprinkled with fresh pomegranates; pan-seared red snapper sauteed in a fresh tomato; olive and caper jalapeno tequila sauce and grilled black tiger prawns sauteed in a garlic chile de arbol sauce with green and red bell peppers and onions served over stewed potatoes and vegetables.
All of the entrees are priced for less than $20.
"It's a small menu," Gomez said. "We have three types of meat and three types of seafood. We wanted it small so it could be done fresh every single day. It is a seasonal menu that we have paired with a nice wine list, which isn't typical for a Mexican restaurant, but it really works well with our dishes."
El Lobo boasts a decor reminiscent of a cozy dining room of an old colonial Mexican hacienda, with vintage movie posters of famous Mexican films lining the walls.
"We really wanted to make our customers feel like they were dining in their grandmother's home," she said.
From the start, Gomez said, business has been steady, and already has a share of regulars.
Gomez said she is living her dream.
"This has been a very exciting process," she said. "It has been very rewarding. The customers and the city have been very loyal and fantastic - it's amazing and just so exciting."

SUNRISE, Fla. – It's been a long road back for Gerard (Turk) Gallant.
The Summerside native, however, admits he is a different coach now than when he last served as a National Hockey League head coach.
"I hope so, definitely," confirmed Gallant in a phone interview with the Journal Pioneer.
Gallant was introduced as the head coach of the Florida Panthers on Monday. Florida went 29-45-8 (won-lost-overtime losses) last season.
This is Gallant's second head-coaching job in the NHL. He compiled a record of 56-76-4-6 (won-lost-tied-overtime losses) with the Columbus Blue Jackets from 2003 to 2006.
"I thought I did a good job in Columbus to be honest," said Gallant. "At that time it was an expansion team, in our fourth or fifth year when I took over. We probably weren't ready to win.
"I feel we did a lot of things right there, but once you get to the point where people think you're ready to win, although we as an organization knew we weren't ready to win, there was pressure."
Road back
After the Blue Jackets, Gallant had a stint as an assistant coach to Ted Nolan with the New York Islanders, Gallant took the 2008-09 season off from coaching and followed his son, Jason, who was playing with the Summerside Western Capitals of the MHL (Maritime Junior Hockey League) at the time.
"I did not plan on that year off, but nothing really came up that interested me," said Gallant. "I took the year off in Summerside, relaxed, enjoyed it and the following March or April talked to Saint John about that job."
The Saint John Sea Dogs hired Gallant as head coach in April 2009. All the Sea Dogs accomplished under Gallant was reach the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League finals all three seasons, win the 2011 and 2012 President's Cups and the 2011 Memorial Cup.
Gallant said his time in Saint John, which was followed by two years as an assistant coach with the Montreal Canadiens, played a big role in where he is today.
"When (Shamrock, P.E.I., native) Mike Kelly and I joined Saint John, it was a very good team," said Gallant. "We had a lot of talent, and people are going to see that with all the kids that are going to play in the NHL."
A sixth-round pick of the Detroit Red Wings in 1981, Gallant feels he has developed in all aspects of coaching since his days in Columbus.
"The fact I did not have a lot of head-coaching experience at the time was probably right," said Gallant. "But, now the last six or seven years, being back in junior, winning championships and the last two years being an assistant coach with the Canadiens, that experience is going to help a lot."
Expect some Florida Panthers's merchandise to resurface around Summerside.
The Panthers formally introduced Gerard (Turk) Gallant as the 13th head coach in franchise history on Monday.
Gallant joins Grant Sonier, Jim Clark and Doug MacLean, who coached the Panthers to the 1996 Stanley Cup final, as Summerside natives who have worked for the Panthers. It was during MacLean's tenure that Panthers's paraphernalia was quite visible in the Prince County city.
Gallant, MacLean and Sonier are all former head coaches of the Summerside Western Capitals's junior A hockey team, and Clark served as a general manager and an assistant coach. Gallant coached the Caps to the 1997 Royal Bank Cup Canadian junior A hockey championship at Cahill Stadium.
Gallant will remain in Florida and will fly to Philadelphia on Wednesday for the NHL Entry Draft this weekend. The Panthers hold the No. 1 overall selection. He will return to Florida on July 6 for a development camp featuring draft picks and young prospects.
Gallant has received congratulations from every member of the Montreal Canadiens's coaching staff, and he has received best wishes from quite a few of the players. Canadiens defenceman P.K. Subban tweeted: "Congrats to Gerard Gallant on the new job. Very deserving. One of the best I've had."
Gallant said he had a great two years in Montreal, and called the Canadiens "a first-class organization."
