SARAH Cafferkey sat in a sunny beer garden on the day she disappeared, casually chatting to her older, muscular companion and sipping a drink.
The publican had seen her in Bacchus Marsh's Young and Main Hotel regularly, but was less familiar with the man she was with.
They left after one drink and the publican thought little of it until Ms Cafferkey was reported missing the next morning.
By that time, police allege, she had been stabbed multiple times at a flat in Simpson Street, Bacchus Marsh.
Steven James Hunter, 47, was charged in an out-of-sessions court hearing on Tuesday night with murdering Ms Cafferkey. He appeared in Melbourne Magistrates Court on Wednesday.
Detective Senior Constable Damien O'Mahoney said police alleged Hunter had killed Ms Cafferkey then moved her body to a house in Fongeo Drive, Point Cook, the next day. She was found there on Saturday.
Hunter, wearing a white forensic jumpsuit because his clothes have been seized by police, did not speak during Tuesday night's hearing, except to answer yes or no to questions from bail justice Adam Trumble.
The heavy-set Hunter, of medium height, was barefoot and had peroxided blonde hair. He had a graze to his right cheekbone and the right side of his chin.
Senior Constable O'Mahoney said he had made admissions to the murder.
Hunter will face the Melbourne Magistrates Court this morning.
Earlier Tuesday, Hunter, who has been described as a self-absorbed braggart, was led down the steps of a small flat on a quiet Hawthorn East street about 12.30pm, arrested by armed police.
Hunter had been staying with an associate, one of his few friends, in the second-storey flat, which is in a brick block in Caroline Street.
Wearing a blue rugby top with a yellow collar, green cargo shorts and no shoes, he was arrested without incident. Neighbours said he looked tired but calm.
The self-described Casanova had been identified in The Age on Tuesday as a person of interest in the case, with police confirming they were searching for him as he had allegedly lived in the house where Ms Cafferkey's remains were found.
Neighbours said about 30 armed officers, some posing as tradesmen, had been involved in the operation to arrest Hunter.
Resident Bill Sklavenitis was eating lunch with his wife when he heard the street humming with police. Police had blocked a rear lane and had four-wheel-drives and motorbikes.
No shots were fired and the whole operation was over in 10 minutes, he said.
''They were just out the front with orange vests and witches' hats,'' Mr Sklavenitis said. ''He [Hunter] just looked old and tired.''
Two couches, a mattress and a vacuum cleaner were slumped on the lawn outside the white two-storey block of flats, which remained cordoned off as forensic police searched the flat where Hunter was found.
The balcony of the flat was cluttered with bonsai trees, a round metal table and mops. A horseshoe was fastened to a metal security screen at the front door, and a small ceramic lion's head adorned a nearby wall.
Neighbours said there had rarely been trouble at the flats, which they said offered government-supported rent.
In Bacchus Marsh, David Bushell, the owner of the Young and Main Hotel, said there was no sign of anything out of the ordinary between Ms Cafferkey and Hunter during their afternoon drink.
''It's just tragic for the town and the family,'' he said. ''It's just devastating. We probably know Sarah not closely but as one of our patrons. She's a nice bubbly young girl. It's really sad for the family that something like this has happened, that's for sure.''
Police warned people off posting hateful comments on social media sites as they may affect court proceedings.

We Got the Beet
We're happy to announce a new major Sugar Beet Sponsor for the 2011 Con: VegNews!
With so many VN contributors already among our speakers (and so many readers among our attendees), we can't think of a more natural partnership. Like you, VegNews works relentlessly to reach hearts and minds the world over with the message of veganism.
If you're at the conference—and we know you will be—you can catch two VegNews staffers, Colleen and Elizabeth, moderating some panels. (Look for our Meet the Moderators post coming soon.) They'll also have an exhibitor table, so make sure you swing by and say "Hey." Or if you're feeling extra cool, like Dwayne on "What's Happening," you can say "Hey hey hey!" We can only hope you'll inspire someone to bust into some Rerun pop-n-lock action.

I am a newbie to the vegan world and I would love, love, love to attend this event!!!

Q. My great grandparents went West on a wagon train after 1892. They lived in Memphis, Scotland County, Mo. Is there a way to verify their names on a roster or find out which wagon train they were on?
A. We don't know of a comprehensive list of wagon train passengers, and not all trains were documented, so you'll have to search a variety of sources. It'll help to know when and where your great grandparents departed and arrived, and which trail they followed. Examine your research for clues, search for land claims in the destination state (use the General Land Office records site <www.glorecords.blm.gov>), look up your ancestors in US and territorial censuses, and double-check their obituaries.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. – Off to its best start since the 2006-07 season, the 13th-ranked University of Pennsylvania men's squash team improved its record to 3-0, defeating No. 14 Navy 6-3 Thursday evening.
Senior captain John Dudzik clinched the victory for Penn with a 3-0decision over the Midshipmen's Randy Beck, improving his individual record to 3-0 on the season.
With the scored tied 2-2 early on, Navy (9-1) was poised to challenge the Quakers, before victories by captain Jack Maine and sophomore Augie Frank swung the match in Penn's favor. Dudzik was then able to secure the victory, and Penn's best start to a season since the 2006-07 campaign, when the Quakers began with seven straight victories.
Maine and Frank improve their individual records to 3-0, along with Michael Mutscheller and George Lemmon. Liam Quinn earned his first victory of the season defeating Navy's Colin Barry 3-2 in the No. 3 position.
Senior Derek Chilvers and freshman Rahil Fazelbhoy – playing in the No. 2 position for the first time – suffered their first defeats of the season, while sophomore Tyler Odell dropped his second match of the year in the No. 1 position.
The Penn men's team will take its 3-0 record into the break, where they will enjoy a training trip to San Diego, Calif. The Quakers will return to competition after the New Year on Jan. 11, when they travel to Hanover, N.H. and begin the Ivy season by taking on Dartmouth.

Conception After Third Term Miscarraige
Factoring in physical and mental stability, how long is recommended to wait to try and have another child after a third term miscarriage? The urge for wanting to have another child is strong but is it healthy right now?
12th September 2013 07:24 AM #2
This depends very much on your individual situation. Have you asked this question of your midwife or doctor? Everyone is different. It depends on how you recover physically and emotionally. Doing some preconception care may help improve your health prior to pregnancy. It is something to consider.

I hope you have support of your friends and family at what must have been a very difficult year for you and your partner. I think a candle will always burn in the hearts of those who have lost a baby.
Sands is an excellent organisation that aims to support families who have lost a baby. As Jane writes above, each individual situation is different and depends on your emotional and physical recover since losing your baby. That is a useful factsheet produced by Sands here on trying for another pregnancy after the loss of a baby.
Do you feel you have been able to grieve for your baby? How is your general health?
With my thoughts,

Ubuntu for Android Gets Official

"Webtop" will give Linux fans a second mini-desktop when plugged into their Linux machine
over 20 million active users
worldwide, Ubuntu -- published by Canonical Ltd. -- is widely claimed to be the "
fastest growing
PC version of Linux
2012 poll
saw 51 percent of respondents calling Ubuntu their favor Linux distro, well ahead of the runner-up Mint (16 percent). Ubuntu remains one of the only Linux distros to
be taken seriously
by PC OEMs
(i.e. offered in commercial products).
Thus, the recent announcements of Ubuntu on Android and Ubuntu smartphone OS may excite some, if not all of Android users. Canonical kicked off the party in February 2012
a native extension to Android. And Canonical this week
the availability of test builds of an even more ambitious effort -- a full-fledged mobile operating system, which could one-day compete with Android.
Ubuntu on Android
devices looks and feels like normal Android when operating in a mobile context. But when plugged into a Ubuntu machine (PC) they become a "webtop" a second-desktop of sorts; mirroring the Unit user-interface (Unity UI) of the parent Ubuntu install.
While this may sound like a mere gimmick, the neat part for enthusiasts is that you'll get full (or likely close to full in release devices) control of the file system, allowing you to shuffle files onto and off of the devices more freely.
Further, all the desktop switch occurs natively inside a modified version of the Android kernel, so unlike other experimental efforts to put emulated Linux distros inside virtual machines on Android courtesy of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), there should be little if any performance penalty.
The mini Ubuntu desktop will sync app settings (e.g. Thunderbird, browser) with those of their traditional Android equivalents. It will also include some unique app, including one that lets the device act like a mini-Ubuntu TV, giving users access to Canonical's movie rental service.
Ubuntu's new smartphone OS takes things a step further, ditching the Android kernel altogether.
reports that the user interface relies heavily on edge swipes, similar to Windows 8.

Currently Canonical is offering a test image of Ubuntu on Android for developers that can be loaded on the
Nexus 4 smartphone
from Google Inc. (
) and LG Electronics, Inc. (
). The finalized software is expected to be available sometime later this year, according to company founder Mark Shuttleworth.
A test image for the full phone operating system will be released for the Nexus 4 in the next few weeks, according to Mr. Shuttleworth. He commented that a proper "Ubuntu Phone" -- which offers a full-fledges Ubuntu operating system in a mobile context will be released from a "high-end" partner sometime in 2014.
Ubuntu on Android tablets may be in store for sometime in 2014 or 2015 as well, given
Android's rising market share
in that space.
(A humorous side-note: years ago Canonical and Google were rumored to be working together on
a new distro called "Googbuntu"
. Ubuntu on Linux is perhaps the real world realization of that rumored build, which at the time proved to be fantasy.)

This article is by Mark Davis, a staff writer for the Valley News, where it was first published Tuesday, Feb. 19, 2013.
Hartford — A former Shady Lawn Motel resident is suing Hartford police, claiming that they charged him in 2010 with assaulting his girlfriend in hopes of deflecting attention from eyewitness accusations that police officers caused her injuries.
Dennis Kucera, who has long criticized police for filing the charge, which was eventually dropped, alleges malicious prosecution, unlawful arrest, false imprisonment and other violations in a lawsuit filed recently in U.S. District Court in Rutland. Kucera is seeking punitive and compensatory damages.
Kucera was arrested two weeks after police visited his motel room, even though police recordings of the initial incident obtained by the Valley News capture officers saying they had no evidence to arrest him for harming his girlfriend, Monica Therrien. In the days after the incident, Therrien, along with three eye-witnesses, accused a Hartford officer of intentionally slamming her to the ground and injuring her after she called 911.
The lawsuit centers on claims that Hartford police, instead of conducting an internal investigation — which they told both the public and witnesses was intended to examine alleged police wrongdoing that night — were instead driven by the "ulterior motive" of trying to gather evidence to pin the blame on Kucera.
"Kucera was unlawfully arrested absent probable cause and then subjected to detention and restrictive conditions of release based upon an affidavit that contained untruthful information and omitted exculpatory information," Kucera's attorney, Christopher Dall of Norwich, wrote in the 11-page lawsuit.
"Despite allegedly conducting an 'internal affairs' investigation into police misconduct for the injuries sustained by Ms. Therrien, (police) used the interviews primarily, though unsuccessfully, to obtain statements and evidence to use against Mr. Kucera for allegedly assaulting Ms. Therrien," Dall continued.
The defendants named in the lawsuit are Detective Michael Tkac, who conducted the follow-up investigation, former Hartford Police Chief Glenn Cutting, Deputy Police Chief Leonard Roberts and the town of Hartford.
In court documents, the defendants' attorney, Nancy Sheahan, has asked for much of the lawsuit to be dismissed, arguing that there is little evidence of wrongdoing. The defendants also contend that they have immunity because they were public officials who acted reasonably.
Sheahan declined to comment on the case yesterday. Tkac, Cutting and Roberts did not respond to messages seeking comment yesterday. (Former Hartford officer Jon Adams, whom Therrien accused of assault, and other officers who responded that night are not named in the lawsuit.)
In 2011, Hartford paid Therrien $32,500 to settle her potential legal claims, which she was preparing to file in court, stemming from the incident. Kucera and Therrien, who moved to Florida several months after the incident, could not be reached for comment yesterday, have long railed against Hartford police and claimed that investigators were trying to blame Kucera for their own actions.
"I'm not going to let them get away with what they did," Kucera told the Valley News in September 2011. "I'm not going to let them make me their scapegoat."
Kucera's lawsuit comes as Hartford police are already fighting a similar lawsuit in federal court: Wilder resident Wayne Burwell sued last year, alleging he was victim of racial discrimination and illegal detention when police beat and pepper-sprayed him inside his own home while responding to an erroneous report of a burglary.
The lawsuit focuses on police actions in the days after a disputed event at the Route 14 motel.
On Sept. 10, 2010, Therrien called 911, and said that Kucera was "trying to beat me up," according to Hartford police. Three officers arrived and quickly engaged in a testy conversation with Therrien, who was heavily intoxicated and slurring her words. Meanwhile, Kucera denied that he had done anything wrong, and told officers that Therrien was confused.
Therrien tried to show officers bruises on her body, but the officers told her they didn't see anything. She and Adams argued, their voices rising.
What happened next is a matter of dispute. Eyewitnesses have told the Valley News and Hartford police that Therrien took several steps away from Adams, who then followed her, grabbed near the back of her head, and slammed her to the pavement. One motel witness compared the sound of Therrien's head hitting the ground to a watermelon splitting open.
Hartford Police Chief Glenn Cutting repeatedly offered a different account: That as Therrien tried to walk away, Adams reached out to stabilize her, and she inadvertently fell to the ground.
Therrien was hospitalized for several days with a concussion and other injuries. At Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center, Therrien's blood alcohol level was measured at .48, six times the legal limit.
Vermont Attorney General William Sorrell cleared officers of criminal wrongdoing in the incident.
Officers left that night without arresting anyone.
"I don't think we have enough for a domestic," one officer said at the scene, according to one of the recordings, obtained by the Valley News.
"I don't see any violation here," another officer agreed.
But two weeks after the incident — after Kucera, other motel residents, and the Valley News began questioning Adams' conduct — police arrested Kucera and charged him with domestic assault, which carries an 18-month maximum sentence. Cutting was present when officers arrested Kucera, according to the lawsuit.
Kucera remained in prison for three days before awaiting his initial court appearance on Sept. 27, and pleaded not guilty.
Earlier that day, Tkac filed an affidavit with the court laying out the case against Kucera. In that affidavit, Tkac said that Kucera caused injuries to Therrien that led to her hospitalization, but made no mention of witnesses who claimed that Adams caused her injuries.
On March 31, prosecutors dismissed the charge against Kucera, citing, in part, Therrien's unwillingness to cooperate.
In addition to the investigation and Kucera's subsequent arrest, the lawsuit accuses police of violating the law in other ways.
Roberts and Cutting allegedly told the manager of the Shady Lawn Motel on several occasions that Kucera could not live at the complex because of a judge's order. In fact, there was no such order, the lawsuit claims. A judge mandated that Kucera and Therrien not have any contact, but Therrien had temporarily moved out of the room they shared, allowing Kucera to lawfully remain, the lawsuit claims.

Fluor, SRNS invest $1.5 million in USC CoEE
Representatives of Fluor Corporation and Savannah River Nuclear Solutions announced a $1.5 million gift Monday (Feb. 28) to the University of South Carolina for the Center of Economic Excellence for the Hydrogen Economy.
USC President Harris Pastides, Fluor CEO and USC alumnus David Seaton and SRNS President and CEO Garry Flowers said the center will be the cornerstone of a comprehensive university-industry partnership among USC, Fluor and SRNS to advance the science, technology and commercialization of clean, secure, renewable energy and its infrastructure.
"Current global events are a stark reminder of the critical need for energy independence," Pastides said. "However, that can only be achieved by bringing together the best and the brightest minds in industry and research through public-private partnerships. This gift today, along with state lottery funds through the Centers of Economic Excellence program, will help achieve this critical national objective."
Seaton said the gift would help pair private sector and academic researchers to uncover innovative ways of bringing jobs to South Carolina.
"During our nearly 100-year history, Fluor has worked diligently through our philanthropic efforts to make differences in the communities where our employees live and work," Seaton said. "I am pleased to be able to make this gift to the university that will enable the private sector and academic researchers to team together and uncover new and innovative ways of bringing the next generation of energy jobs to South Carolina and the region."
The funds will enable USC to recruit two world-class scientists for a Discovery Chair in USC's College of Engineering and Computing and an Innovation Chair in the Darla Moore School of Business.

Thompson, Craig. Habibi.
In this epic, illustrated love story, two young slaves who come to find one another against the harsh landscape of the Middle East, must struggle against overwhelming obstacles to be together. A mix of religious stories, mysticism and contemporary social commentary, Craig Thompson (author of Blankets) beautifully renders how a nine year-old Dodola and infant Zam escape slavery, grow into adulthood on an abandoned ship in the desert, and then are forced apart once more just as they begin to feel passion for one another as adults.
The complex plot follows both Zam and Dodola through their journeys apart while symultaneously telling the story of how they met and came to love each other. The magical saga is told through Thompson's outstanding illustrations that are able to convey both the lushness and barbarity of the characters' experiences and beliefs. Take a journey with Habibi and discover the power of love and fate.

Scotty McCreery victim of home invasion
Listen to Scotty McCreery on iHeartRadio
Scotty McCreery is safe but may be missing a few valuables after a home invasion in Raleigh, North Carolina early Monday.
A voice-altered 911 call has been released, detailing what happened to McCreery and his friends. It's not clear if the country crooner and "American Idol" alum is the one who placed the call, but TMZ says he was visiting an apartment near the North Carolina State University campus when the robbery occurred.
The caller on the tape tells the dispatcher that three men forced their way into the apartment and made off with cash, wallets and other items at gunpoint. No one was injured.
Scotty tweeted about the scary experience:

WATCH: Beyonce dedicates 'I Will Always Love You/Halo' medley to Paul Walker
Listen to Beyonce on iHeartRadio
(Yahoo!) - News of actor Paul Walker's death has affected every corner of the entertainment industry, right up to Queen B herself. On Tuesday night, Beyoncé dedicated an emotional medley to Walker at her Staples Center show in Los Angeles.
Beyoncé's performance of Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" that runs right into her own song "Halo" has always been a moving staple of her stage shows, and was certainly a touching moment between performing her mega hits.
There's no obvious evidence that the singer and Walker were close, or even friends, but news of his death has proved to be shocking for even the most cynical film fan.
Beyoncé's song dedication comes right on the heels of another musical dedication from Wu-Tang's RZA, who released his song "Destiny Bends" on Sunday as an homage to his friend. RZA and Walker met on the set ofBrick Mansions, one of Walker's two films that are yet to be released in 2014, along with Fast & Furious 7. RZA wrote, "we talked, laughed, and exchanged ideas of life and fatherhood."
Watch Beyoncé's medley from her Vancouver tour date, the day Paul Walker was killed:

from Age-Friendly Sausalito
Topics for the Age-Friendly Tip of the Month are generated from the responses to the Age-Friendly Sausalito questionnaires that were received last Winter. The Task Force is hard at work sorting and analyzing the incredible wealth of data created by the surveys,and through the process, are finding gaps in information about services. Hopefully, this column will help as we continue to shape an age friendly plan of action.
This Month's Tip - Keeping Sausalito Seniors Safe and Secure at Home
Are you or one of your neighbors, family members or friends an older adult living alone or living with health challenges? The recent U.S. census from 2010 counted more than 500 seniors living alone in Sausalito, both homeowners and renters. By now, four years later, that number has surely grown. Living alone can be risky for older persons who may be unwell, frail, living with disabilities or suffer a fall or other incident. Even older persons who spend a large part of the day alone at home may be feeling isolated or vulnerable. There are two free programs that provide an extra measure of safety and reassurance.
The Telephone Reassurance Program
This personal reassurance Program is a free telephone check-in program serving seniors, adults with disabilities and housebound individuals in Marin County. The program offers an excellent service of free three- times-per- week morning phone calls to check on the participant's safety and well-being and can also direct the individual to senior resources they may need. The calls are made on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings each week. The calls are made by friendly, caring volunteers from the Episcopal Senior Community Services, located at Whistlestop.
If there is either no response to the call after three tries, or a problem is identified, an agreed upon emergency contact is called. If that person can't be reached, Sausalito Police will be contacted to stop by the residence and make sure the person is OK.
Participants are teamed up with one of the trained volunteers and by talking to the same person each time the volunteers get to know them and are better able to listen for changes that could indicate a need for further assistance. If a participant is planning to be out for the morning or away from home, they can let the program administrator know. Signing up is easy. Just call Leslie Klor at Whistlestop (415) 456-9062 ext.# 132. She will be happy to discuss the program and send you a form to fill out. As soon as you are signed up the reassurance phone calls will begin.
R U OK Program
Sausalito's Are You OK, is a program operated by our Police Department and is another valuable service for seniors and other residents who may be homebound, or otherwise vulnerable, and possibly need extra assistance in an emergency. The program is designed to prioritize assistance to residents in times of a natural disaster, fire or other neighborhood or personal emergency. The participants fill out a simple form about their special health needs and their emergency contacts, which is kept completely private and secure. The Sausalito Police are then able to immediately identify their addresses in the case of an individual health crisis, natural disaster, community emergency or other urgent situation such as nearby criminal activity or other safety issue. The participant's address is incorporated in Sausalito's geomapping system, so it can be easily accessed directly from our community police vehicles for the quickest possible response when needed. To sign up for this critical support program, call Sausalito Police Station at (415) 289-4170 Sgt. Stacy Gregory or anyone there will be glad to help you.

Extreme Heat
Heat kills by pushing the human body beyond its limits. In extreme heat and high humidity, evaporation is slowed and the body must work extra hard to maintain a normal temperature.
Most heat disorders occur because the victim has been overexposed to heat or has over-exercised for his or her age and physical condition. Older adults, young children, and those who are sick or overweight are more likely to succumb to extreme heat.
Conditions that can induce heat-related illnesses include stagnant atmospheric conditions and poor air quality. Consequently, people living in urban areas may be at greater risk from the effects of a prolonged heat wave than those living in rural areas. Also, asphalt and concrete store heat longer and gradually release heat at night, which can produce higher nighttime temperatures known as the "urban heat island effect."

Keys to the Game
Quarterback Play
---Unlike last years playoff matchup, we'll see two quarterbacks who can both really sling it. If the defenses are still in pre-season form, we can very well see a shootout. No doubt we'll see a ton of passing by both offenses, so the QB who protects the ball best could end up the winner.
Offensive Line Play
---Both teams have a great pair of pass rushers. For the Steelers its Woodley and Harrison from the 3-4 outside linebacker spots. For the Broncos, its Elvis Dumervil from the right end, and Von Miller from the strongside linebacker spot, and sometimes the left end spot. So the question is not whether or not these defenses can rush the passer, we know they can. The real question is, which offensive line will better protect their quarterback. Neither team has a great offensive line. The unit playing better in both run blocking and pass blocking will have a big effect on their teams success.

I love the rematch aspect, but this will be a DIFFERENT game. Their DC underestimated Tebow, now they have to deal with Peyton. I can easily see them under-estimating our running game to compensate, which has more bite w/o 8 men in the block.
As for the their D, they still have one of the best LBer unit in the NFL, one of the best SS in the game, yet their starting FS has to stay in PITT because of an ailment. Their D-line isn't as good as years past IMO.
While I see this a c;lose game again, I see us coming out on top, 28-23

Good luck to you too. Let's hope we see a strong AFC W, that is able to make some statments against teams from other divisons, then we can settle the real score head to head.
I am a very nervous going in to this game. Pitt has something to prove and I think it will take some time for our offence to get fully going.

Elliot - AWESOME gamethread man. Maybe the best I have ever seen on this site. The effort is definitely appreciated.
I mentioned in the Steelers thread that I think our ability to stop the run is going to be the key to this game. If we let the Steelers gain big chunks on the ground it not only keeps PFM off the field, but also leave us REALLY exposed to the Steelers explosive Play Action passing game. Mike Wallace and Antonio Brown probably get behind Defense's off Play Action more than any pair in the NFL, so that is a huge concern if we are having to start cheating against the run.
On the flip side, if we can force 3rd and long then Big Ben is going to have to get ready to be hit early and often. Max Starks and Marcus Gilbert simply aren't going to be able to handle Elvis and Von in obvious passing situations.
I am so excited for this game, but unfortunately I am not going to be able to watch it with you guys. It starts at 1.20am Monday morning here in the UK, so I will be getting up at around 5.30 am to watch the recording of it.
Here's hoping our fans haven't sold their tickets to pesky Steeler fans!

Is Harrison expected to play I wonder? I'm curious to see what the Pittsburgh's subpackage blitzes will look like. In pre-season Pittsburgh rather frequently would line Timmons outside and use him as a primary pass rusher(where the OLB Chris Carter would either cover a back or blitz if the back stayed in to block). Will they do the same with Harrison as Carter or does that just mean Timmons will be covering more? They played a lot of varying nickel sets, often times they like to keep only 2 D-Lineman(Keisel and Hood most likely) and have 4 Linebackers out there.
I don't know how our players(Center over to the right) are going to be able to hold up against the Steelers stunts and blitzes so perhaps a conservative gameplan would do us best? Pittsburgh fans have been hyping McClendon but my impression is a guy who does good against average interior linemen and not so good against good ones. I think we can get some movement in the run game. So long as we don't have Tight Ends isolated against Harrison or Woodley.
In the Playoffs last year their receivers didn't kill us, maybe it was because Roethlisberger wasn't healthy but I'm still a bit worried about how we will match against Wallace and Brown. It will be a good test. Porter is much more athletic than Goodman and it will help against those quick receivers(which Pittsburgh did a poor job of taking advantage of last season, Emmanuel Sanders should have played more because Goodman struggled with him, much more of a matchup problem than Cotchery).
We don't have DJ, which means our nickel linebackers are going to be Mays and Woodyard. I'm honestly not looking forward to seeing these guys try to tackle Ben Roethlisberger, so hopefully Dumervil and company bring down Ben and prevent him from getting loose.
If Harrison plays, I expect holding penalties on Clady and I also expect Chris Rainey is going to make some mistakes for the Steelers. Also it's a big plus for us that the Steelers good Safety isn't playing, because his replacement in Mundy sucks as a starting Safety.

Steelers players could come out with mentality of getting back at us for last year which could go both ways. But I feel the best way to approach this game is that it is the first step in winning the SB.
I can't wait to see Manning play 4 quarters of football, it will be interesting how much no huddle is played as it will probably be a gauge as how much we will run it throughout the year. More importantly I cant wait for Prater time again. With Manning at the helm I expect a few more chip shots if any but if he can land a 53yd as his first FG of the season well I'll go nuts

This will definitely be a close game. Pittsburgh does not have a particularly adept offensive line, and even less so with the injuries now. Ryan Clark being out is of course a benefit to us, even though it's unfortunate that he has to be for health reasons.
Wallace won't be in full force, that's a plus for us. They don't have a great running threat with Mendenhall out, though I do like Isaac Redman. I think that we may get lucky playing Pittsburgh now, rather than Week 10, say. Also, better believe this crowd will be fired up for Manning's first home game, and the return of a playoff team from last year. Oh, and it's prime time.
I think we pull it out 23-20.
Thanks, Tzimisce

Despite a pass happy league, I think this game comes down to who runs the ball the best. I agree with whoever said McGahee will be the MVP of the game. I think if the Steelers cannot find their running game and it seems like they are a bit dinged up in that area, the Broncos can win.
If Big Ben has to throw, and even though I see him as a quality passer, I think the DB's will have a great game, in part, because like lomax said, Von and Doom will have fun chasing the clock around.
I could see this game being very close, because these teams seem pretty evenly matched. I always hope for the season opener to be a blow out and perhaps we see the kind of team we will see all season in the 1Q 49ers preseason game, where Manning makes a lot of short throws, a few longer throws, yet a whole of steadiness and Manning getting everyone involved kind of a game...I would appreciate that...if they can replicate that kind of offense then I predict a 68-28 victory for the Broncos.

Topic: Any experience with medicare?????
I am on the low side of the ups and downs and need some insight.
I was told that medicare would cover me at the doctors yesterday, but I have just been turned down as I have not worked 5 out of the last ten yeats (It took me 7 years to finish my PhD) so I only have 3, plus my husband makes too much (40,000).
Now I am desperate. What does it mean?? Is there a special program for cholangio patients or did the doctor just get it wrong and assumed I had worked enought to qualify for medicare? I was told basically to divorce my husband if I wanted help. Great.
I had such hopes that if the swedish system refused chemo on the grounds of statistcs that I at least could get it here at home. I never want to make that decision about when to come home, not for treatment but to die. I am so tired of this crap.

Kynard Gives Another Record Performance
Kynard Gives Another Record Performance
Feb. 16, 2013
MANHATTAN, Kan. – K-State fans got to witness history on Saturday afternoon at Ahearn Field House, and it was just centimeters away from being even bigger history. Senior high jumper Erik Kynard was in action at home again and he tied his own school record of 2.33 meters (7-07.75) to also tie the Ahearn Field House facility record and set a new meet record for the KSU Open.
Kynard got the large crowd pumped for the meet and used their assistance as he asked for the slow clap that is so common among track and field, and those fans nearly helped Kynard clear a new collegiate record as he took three attempts at 2.38 meters (7-09.75). Kynard's first and third attempts were very close to clearing and he just clipped the bar on his final attempt.
"Erik jumped well," said K-State Head Coach Cliff Rovelto. "He needed the competition and to see higher bars in a meet. His last attempt at 2.38 was pretty good."
Kynard was feeling confident as he cleared 2.27 meters (7-05.25) on his second attempt. After that jump, Kynard walked over to Rovelto and said, "I only need one attempt." And that's how many attempts Kynard took at both 2.30 meters (7-07.00) and 2.33 meters.
With his clearance of 2.33 meters, Kynard is again ranked No. 1 in the NCAA for this season. He was tied at 2.29 meters (7-06.00) with Indiana's Derek Drouin and Mississippi's Ricky Robertson, but Drouin jumped 2.32 meters (7-07.25) last week.
The impressive performances were not limited to Kynard as eight other individuals improved where they rank in their respective events in the conference heading into next week's Big 12 Conference Championship, and the women's 4x400 relay also moved up the league rankings on Saturday.
K-State got big numbers out of its throwers and jumpers across the board with freshman Dani Winters posting a new personal record on her first toss in the weight throw and then again later in the competition to finish fourth. Jessica Carter followed shortly with a PR on her first toss. She too would post another PR during the competition on her last throw, which was needed after another competitor moved ahead of her during the fifth round.
Carter had a winning throw of 18.70 meters (61-04.25) to move into fourth in the Big 12 this season and seventh in school history. Freshman Sara Savatovic took third at 17.54 meters (57-06.50). Alex Roe also posted a PR for the men in winning with a toss of 17.97 meters (58-11.50). Roe already ranked fifth in the Big 12 this season and that mark widened the gap between he and the sixth-ranked thrower.
Before Kynard put on his show in the high jump, sophomore Joslyn Barnes had her best performance of the season as she won the women's high jump at 1.73 meters (5-08.00). That mark moves her into fifth on the conference list where she is expected to compete in the high jump and pentathlon next week at the conference championship meet.
The Wildcats also dominated the long jump with newcomers Jharyl Bowry, Tyris Jefferson and Devin Field finishing 1-2-3 in the men's competition. Jasmine Gibbs and Cenarda Jackson took the top two spots in the women's long jump as well with Jackson posting a new PR.
Bowry earned the win with a mark just short of his season best as he still ranks No. 1 in the Big 12. Jefferson took second place in 7.12 meters (23-04.50) to move into fourth in the conference and Field made his long jump debut as a Wildcat and leapt 7.01 meters (23-00.00) to rank ninth in the conference.
K-State ran away from the competition on the track with victories in nearly every event the Wildcats were entered.
Senior Samantha McKnight posted a PR in the 60 meters for the second straight week as she has been running strong. McKnight ran the fastest time in the preliminaries and backed it up with a winning time of 7.52 seconds in the final. That time moves her into the top 10 in the conference this season and into fifth in school history.
Freshman Magnus Scott posted two PRs in the men's 60 meters as he ran 6.91 in the prelims and then 6.84 to finish second in the final.
K-State won all three distance events the team entered with Fernando Roman putting together the best performance. Roman ran the 3,000 meters in 8:41.32 to claim victory and shave more than 20 seconds off her previous best time in the event from last season.
The Wildcats closed the meet with a K-State vs. K-State battle in the women's 4x400 relay and the top squad accomplished its goal for the meet.
K-State entered the meet ranked sixth in the conference in the 4x400 and wanted to run a fast enough time to move into the fastest heat at the conference championship. With a time of 3:42.64, the team of Sonia Gaskin, Ashley Williams, Merryl Mbeng and Tia Gamble won the event. After using a conversion rate for the event, which K-State ran on a flat 200-meter track, the time of 3:39.73 does move K-State into fourth in the Big 12. The No. 2 team of Jordan Matthews, Sarah Kolmer, Erica Twiss and Angela Hart ran a time of 3:46.12.
"We had a number of impressive performances from our men and women today," Rovelto said. "We had a few cement their spot on the roster we will take to the Big 12 Championship next week. It was a pretty good meet."
The Wildcats will battle the rest of the league at the Big 12 Championship next week in Ames, Iowa. Action starts on Friday for the two-day championship meet with the Wildcat men among one of four teams in the league ranked in the USTFCCCA Top 25.

The DenBleykers needed help.
Home schooling five children was a big challenge, in and of itself, for Jeffrey and Jennifer DenBleyker of South Jordan, particularly with the youngest being a toddler. And because two of their daughters were adopted from Guatemala, and the family is trying to adopt a third girl from that Central American country, the DenBleykers wanted that educational experience to include exposure to Spanish language and culture.
With help from Murray-based Go Au Pair, Blanca Mercedes Eguizabal Alvarez came to the DenBleykers' rescue.
The 23-year-old from El Salvador moved into the DenBleykers' home in December 2011 and recently re-upped to spend a second year.
"We're pleased with the way she's blended into our household," said Jeffrey, a civil engineer with CH2M Hill. "Blanca's significantly older than our kids, so my wife and I see her as an older daughter. The bond she has developed with our kids has surprised us in a positive way."
Added Jennifer, who bore most of the teaching responsibilities as well as shuttling kids to programs: "Bringing someone in who spoke Spanish and could teach [the kids] took the pressure valve off me. It made me feel like I could still have time with the younger ones, but they weren't taking up the whole day."
The DenBleykers are representative of many families who turn to Go Au Pair eager to bring in a foreigner to provide live-in child-care help, said the agency's managing director, Tanna Wilson.
"A lot of families are hesitant to try it because it is live-in. But once they try it, they like it," said Wilson, noting that Go Au Pair is one of only 13 agencies licensed by the U.S. State Department to bring young adults into the country for a cultural exchange and the child-care jobs.
The agency works with prospective au pairs from 50 countries China, Germany and South Africa are the most common and helps them to get work visas.
Go Au Pair does background checks on the would-be nannies and the host families. After a match is made, Wilson said her agency also provides training in child-care development, safety and American culture, visits the au pairs monthly, gets them together for activities and pays their medical insurance.
Families are required by the State Department to pay their au pairs $196.75 a week, she added, noting that at any given time, 10 to 20 Utah families have au pairs.
Participating in the program has exceeded Alvarez's expectations, too.
"Living with a family is important to me. It's not the same as living by yourself. I feel that warmth," she said, adding that the DenBleykers have been great hosts. "I love the kids and the kids love me. And the husband and wife, they are the best."
The experience has been more than just baby-sitting, said Alvarez, who hopes to become a civil engineer.
"This is my first job, but I think I can handle other jobs now," she said. "Kids are a huge, huge responsibility, and I've learned how to deal with many situations. I've learned how to be responsible."

WATCH: Dixie Chicks cover Miley Cyrus' 'Wrecking Ball'
Listen to Dixie Chicks on iHeartRadio | Listen to Miley Cyrus on iHeartRadio
The Dixie Chicks performed an absolutely awesome cover of Miley Cyrus' Wrecking Ball recently—and there wasn't a Twerk or tongue in sight.
The Texans pretty much OWNED it and brought down the house with their sweet harmonizing, acoustic guitar and violin accompaniment.
Natalie Maines, Emily Erwin Robison and Martie Erwin Maguire were performing in London's O2 as part of the Canadian and European leg of their "Long Time Gone" tour which finished off in Denmark's Copenhagen on March 20.
If you want to catch a live performance you can see the Dixie Chicks play alongside Keith Urban on July 12 in Calgary, AB, Canada.

Was $99.95 NOW $49.95
This is the electric toothbrush that thoroughly cleans all of your teeth in 30 seconds, reducing necessary brushing time by 75%. Unlike typical toothbrushes that only clean one surface at a time, this advanced model has four heads that clean six surfaces--the front, back, and chewing surface of top and bottom teeth--simultaneously. The electric toothbrush automatically executes the Bass technique, a brushing method recommended by the American Dental Association: the bristles are aligned at a 45� angle and move towards and away from the gums 810 times per minute to remove bacterial plaque from teeth and gums. The pivoting heads self-adjust to accommodate narrower front teeth and broader back teeth and the bristles have varying lengths to clean prominent tooth surfaces and hard-to-reach spaces. Two included rechargeable AA batteries provide up to 60 uses after a 12-hour charge. Charger plugs into AC. Includes four soft bristle brush heads and a tongue cleaner. 7 1/2" L x 1 1/4" W x 1" D.

Works Great with one small problem...
By Norm
from Los Angeles
This is an outstanding product with a puzzling flaw. The toothbrush does the best job cleaning and stimulating the gums of anything I have ever used. Even my dentist noticed substantial improvement and wanted to recommend it to patients.However, I have already had to purchase a second one. The toothbrush doesn't recharge in its stand (which it should). Instead, you have to manually remove the batteries and recharge them occasionally. And since they're not "sealed" in their compartment there is an accumulation of water and moisture over time. It corrodes the batteries and the inside of the compartment. I sent the first unit back to Ohio today (almost $7 in postage) and hope they replace it. Still recommend the product highly and hope they have improved the seal by now.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The good think about the instrument is that it effectively cleans your teeth in a way far better than an ordinary brush.

I'm on my 4th one...
By High Evolutionary
from Fort Apache, The Bronx
The best toothbrush I've used so far. Not sure if I'd be able to go back to using and brushing with any other toothbrush ever again (except in an emergency). I'm hoping they solve the water issue soon. I'd actually be willing to pay more for it if it was a sealed (water tight) device. Oh well, I guess you can't have it all.

Fantastic Results
By Smiffi
from Franklin
I'm on my third one in 4 years. First two self destructed after 1 1/2 to 2 years. both suffered from connection problems in the battery compartment. I keep buying new ones, because their cheaper than cavities, which I quit getting, after using the 30 second toothbrush. My dentist is constantly impressed with the way the toothbrush keeps my teeth clean and cavity free. I keep hoping the design engineers will fix the poor design on the battery compartment.

Great idea, needs improvement.
By Beef Jerky, Yo
from Chico, CA
This is a really innovative design that cleans in places that I usually don't focus on with a normal brush. I just wish it was stronger, faster, and had the on off switch on the front face, and not a rotating dial on the bottom of the handle.

Jennifer Connelly and Russell Crowe star in "Noah." (CNS/Paramount) There is no doubt that Darren Aronofsky's epic "Noah" draws from post-apocalyptic images and gives a nod to science fiction and the popular vampire genre to tell the story of Noah, the grandson of Methuselah.And Aronofsky has done his Bible-storytelling homework. The entire narrative has the feel of an oral storytelling culture, with the use of repetitive "chiastic" or "ring" structure so hearers will remember. … [Read more...]

Truesilk is made with 100% mulberry silk making it light with a natural sheen that is found in silk. The yarn is a chainette type construction which means knitted garments hold their shape and drape gracefully.

That's unacceptable, go to your closer Apple store, they suppose to exchange it for you. I'm pretty sure that was one problem in the production line and they caught the problem late, affecting some lots. I hope mine don't come with that.
Unfortunately, there are a couple of immediate obstacles here, beginning with Apple declaring that the warranty does not cover cosmetic defects like scratches. You'd have to also prove that Apple caused the scratch (and not you), which may very well prove a Sisyphean task.
That being said, nicks on a brand new product that were there before you purchased it, regardless of the source or item, are a huge disappointment. I have no idea how Apple could fix these, short of replacing the whole rear panel. Making things worse is the probable scarcity of replacement parts, were Apple to go the recall/swap route.
EDIT: As Javier noted, refunds are likely to be Apple's first and primary means of making amends on this issue, possibly with Apple then refurbishing the dinged-up iPhones.
I had a mark on the back of my black 64gb, it was like a raise piece of the anodized coating. I tried rubbing it off, picking at it with a finger nail, nothing. But now a few hours later it seems to have buffed out and disappeared. Kinda like the grooves of a MFSL record
My iPhone 5 is picking up finger prints like crazy, now that's a whole nother issue. My 4/4S was never like this.
meh, they better. well its too late now to take pictures its been long since i unboxed it.
but im not a happy camper. LTE isnt working so well even though its listed. meh and now this. they better allow me to exchange my iphone for another.
but i preordered mine. so i dont know how this will work.
Nothing to lose...
Gonna take mine to apple in the morning and see what they say
I have some small scuffs around the corner edges of the antenna band
there's 2 green dots on the band neart the silent switch, looks like someone marked it for positioning or something..
ggggrrr frustrating...
Hopefully apple can rectify the situation
mine came damaged as well. I swapped it out with no issue. They had a full line of "refurbs" waiting. though, I don't think they were really refurbs. Probably just manufactured for exchanges.
My white iPhone 5 was perfect when I unboxed it and a big upgrade from my 4. This is my first white iPhone. I thought it looked better with all the aluminum.
Besides 99.9 percent of you will have it locked up in some kind of vault like case so you will never see the scratch again.
That is just unacceptable. One of the good things about most droids is that they are mostly plastic and not prone to these scratches..of course they are not as sleek and sexy but they are not all scratched up either :] Apple really needs to find a material that lasts. Not only looks good but is practical for the consumer. Scratches out of the box?? Seriously?? Although..most of us will have either a case or bumper on our phones, so its not really that big a deal or is it?
Well just phoned O2 (my provider) who were a complete crock of ****.
They said I can return the phone today but due to availability it could be 3-4 weeks before my new one arrives. This was after being on hold for 3mins.
He did say that if I put it in a case it will be ok cause I won't be able to see it. Thanks for that buddy. Good job!
