[Yung Redd]
Nevermind the fact, I was born to rap
I'm this and that, I'm riding in a Cadillac
With a gat in my lap, and a extra strap
To leave these haters, flat on they back whoa
Tell the bitch, come ride with a star
Cause I got rims poking, out the side of my car
I could never get enough, of they bras and card
That ain't all, I love to ball
It's over mayn, some of these niggas out here
Done fell out, on they game
When I call your name, and snatch your chain
Nigga please, money ain't a thang
So I ride on the block, in a black Impala
Pop my collar, can't stop and holla
Better take notes see I'm a scholar
I'm a leader, these hoes follow
See I don't, swang and bang
Playboy, that ain't my thang
You need to quit, making songs about us
And get your change, we cook it we cut it
We hustle and think nothing of it, the way I hit the block
With them rocks, boy you gotta love it
It's Yung Redd y'all, still I'm a Hustler Stackin'
We got em mad, with no record I went platinum
Most of these niggas rapping, ain't seeing no action
I'm one deep in the streets, with my heat let's get it cracking
[Lil' B]
Watch a nigga swang wide, when I'm riding solo
Pick up your hoe, when I'm in my fo' do'
Diamonds glisten, on the wood mo-mo
These underground weak rappers, style is hobo
4-4 dumping off in your Polo, logo making you haters go-go
Solo, under the ground like do-do
S.L.A.B. hitting hard like Sammy Soso, let the top down in a drop
Lil B the type, to make a nigga breathing stop
Call the cops, kick up rocks
Cause you niggas know, we got this underground on lock
With a pen and pad, and a grind zone
Steady shining, like rhinestones
Keep number one haters, minds blown
Slow, Loud And Bangin' to the day I'm gone
Steady checking and recking, and going off in the booth
Slow, Loud And Bangin' is the group
Beat the tracks right up, like hot chicken soup
Y'all niggas don't wanna go to war, with a troop
For loot we cock Glocks, beat up blocks
And then set up shop, we still living the life of hard knocks
Grind 24/7, all around the clock
When I pull up on the block, I Glock the 4-0
Never ever been a hoe, lace up and let's go
Whether friend or a foe, I weave and the throw
Hella-blows to the nose, so niggas be getting hold
Me and Redd on a mission, and spitting it for position
Till a nigga come up missing, and praying somebody listen
Like a pitcher that was pitching, I'm throwing a strike out
Lights out, bitch nigga you fin to be sliding out
Riding out two deep, with my baby mama
I got a pump in the trunk, ready for the drama
These fake ass niggas, biting like piranhas
Everything that I do, so they peep my line up
Like diamond faces, and grill bars
Off in the game, like superstars
Whatever you do, don't touch my car
I'll have your click bunny hopping, like the entourage
Coming out the garage, like I'm a first round draft pick
Hoes on dick, cause I'm running with a South Klique
Throwing my fist, everytime I spit
Quit T-R-A-E, now what's your business
You know me, I'm that nigga
Talking down, and I'm the grave digger
Send a 17, through your liver
Now tell me, who you think realer
[Hook - 4x]
I got my grind on, when I slab ride
Chrome spin, when I swang wide
Fuck you haters, we certified
Everybody know, that S.L.A.B. is on the rise
It's Jay'Ton dropping bombs, on a nigga that's talking down
You better get back, 'fore your body hit the ground
I'm a Southside nigga, representing the H-Town
If you want that paper, better get on the grind
Cause we some real niggas, thoed niggas
When I weave to the left, I'ma fold at niggas
These haters in the game, trying to hold a nigga
So I reach way back, fin to roll a nigga
When I'm up in the game, I be out of control
And late night on 4's, I be fucking with hoes
And when I pull out the cap, nigga be leaving them holes
In the chest and the neck, knocked out on the road
S-L-A-B, a G you can't see
In a Lac screened up, with T-I-N-T
With a trunk raised up, you know who we be
On BET, with AJ and Free
Give me the mic, and I'ma smash
Nigga come through, roof up on glass quicker than flash
My niggas, we mash for cash
Fucking with killas, we putting holes in your ass yeah it's like that
We stand up, for the grasp
Clear out the lot, cock back the Glock blast
Unlock the shotgun, there go the cops fast
Heat to the stash, greens flipping up out of my dash
Yeah bitch, you like my switches
I know you hoes, wanna get my riches
Recognize trick, bow before a G
Ain't nobody fucking, with S-L-A-B
Upside, we about our change
Bubble lights, four screens in the Range

It ain't hard, for a hoe to get bruised
Don't fuck with me, I won't fuck with you
A3, off top I'm trill
This year, I'm fin to grab me a mill
All these niggas, worried bout a major deal
Independent, the game's been sealed
It's Showteezie baby, don't be surprised
From behind the scenes, right before your eyes
From a conversation, right between the thighs
Bopping off the way, my Sprewells glide
Drop top, on a SUV
It's a Third Ward nigga, recognize a G
Got my tech in my lap, so you niggas could see
Don't think I'm off note, cause I'm smoking a tree
Got my niggas in the back, and the side of me
Booted up suited up, ready to ride for me
Got six 18's, knocking highs and down
22's swanging wide, sitting low to the ground
Breaking boys off, in and out of town
I'ma dim my whole truck, around Kappa town
I'ma come through, hit the C-Wall and clown
They gon say, (look at that old funky ass nigga Showtyme)
Y'all go on hate me, if you wanna
Got your baby mama, waiting round the corner
I'ma let her drive, cause she really wanna
Make love to her face, then I'm a goner
Fill her full of lies, tell her I'ma phone her
Give her number to my partner, so he could bone her
He gon pass it to the click, and burn out on her

Reports: Warrant issued for Patriots' Hernandez
Boston, MA – A warrant for the arrest of New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez has reportedly been issued.
According to ABC News and FOX-25 in Boston, the arrest warrant is for obstruction of justice involving the murder investigation of Odin Lloyd.
Lloyd was found dead near Hernandez's home in North Attleboro, Mass., on Monday night. Police have already met with Hernandez twice during the early stages of the investigation.
On Thursday, FOX-25 cited a law enforcement source as saying that Hernandez and Lloyd were with two other men at a bar in Boston on the night of the homicide and left together in a vehicle driven by Hernandez. The report said it is still unclear as to what happened afterward.
However, FOX-25 has also reported that Hernandez's neighbors heard gunshots between 3 a.m. and 3:30 a.m. ET on Monday morning.
ABC News on Thursday, citing an investigator with knowledge of the case, reported that Hernandez intentionally destroyed a home security system within his house and turned over a broken cell phone to police. He also hired a cleaning service to clean his mansion on Monday, according to the source.
The damage to the surveillance system and cell phone apparently led to the arrest warrant.
Sports Illustrated first broke the story on Tuesday, saying Hernandez was questioned by Massachusetts state police in its investigation. According to SI.com, police connected a 2013 Chevrolet Suburban rented in Hernandez's name with the homicide of Lloyd.
Hernandez has spent three seasons with the Patriots. He set career highs of 79 catches, 910 receiving yards and seven touchdowns during his Pro Bowl season of 2011, then played in just 10 games due to injuries last year and finished with 51 receptions for 483 yards with five touchdowns.

I look forward to picking these up at $9.
I stopped at Target today and the AT-AT Driver, Dengar, Imp Officer set that was on clearance for $10 last week had no sticker and scanned at $24.99. They still had some of the same clearance items from last week, still at their clearance price. So will new three packs be out very soon?
Didn't you guys say these would go for $25 because they sold so well at $20?

Work-out: In my personal trainer days, I used to tell clients to "listen to their bodies" to let them know how much they could do. I now recognize how this isn't always the case. Sometimes our bodies/minds want to fool us, because it is Hard and we don't always like Hard. If we give up because something is difficult, then nothing great is ever accomplished. Something pushing through the hard stuff rejuvenates, takes us places we never thought we'd go. We become stronger with every hurtle we sail over–even if we smash into a few hurtles along the way and break a leg–haw! Okay, maybe we don't wanna do that, but I certainly have sported quite a danged few bruises–my badges of Badness, yeah!
On the flipside of that: if you are over-working hoping for an over-night miracle, stop the hell doing that. Along with our hard work comes a dose of reality: it takes time to develop a strong and healthy body, especially if we've been sitting on our asses waiting for it to magically happen for us. Lawd y'all, and please stop listening to those infomercials–they lie. I know! Hard to believe our faithful televisions sometimes spout lies! Whadya know . . . huhn.
Writers: Working hard and not expecting an "over-night success" applies to our writing lives, as well. Sure does, uh huh! You can talk about it, or whine about it, or hope about it, or you can sit your ass down and do it. Ain't no magic.
Work-out: Sometimes we want some chocolate(or pick your "poison"), dammit. Sometimes we wanna sit on our asses and do nothing but eat crap and feel depressed and not do a danged ole thing. Some days everything feels sucky. "I can't run a maratttthooonnnn." "I'm tired of not eating what I waaaant toooooo any time I want tooo." Well, y'allses, when we sit on our asses and gobble down an entire box of chocolates or ten ton plate of pasta or Big Mac and fries and shake and fried apple pie, feeling sorry for ourselves and the state of Everything, welp, what happens is we feel even worse than before—inside and out. Our bodies will be bloated and sick from Crap Overload.
Better to treat ourselves to just a few pieces of that chocolate(or whatever), savoring every bite and feeling happy. Better to eat 80-90 percent Well/Healthy, and 10-20 percent Crap. Yeah, that's easier to swallow, right? If you know you can eat, say, 10% to 20% or so of crap, the rest of the 80% to 90% is not so hard to swallow, right? riiiggghht. Cause it's going to take you to a better body and mind and heart and guts and veins and lungs and heretoforwith so let it be written so let it be done.
Writers: Received another rejection? Feeling like shit? Well, you gonna lie back and let that suck you into the dark abyss of depression/over-eating/over-drinking, or you gonna get back up and try again? Try 10-20% whining and crying and then get back to the 80-90% work.
Work-out: It's fruitless and stupid to compare ourselves to Any One Out There: say that loud and say it again and again and again and ever more again: Don't compare yourself to others. Carve your own path. And, geez, you don't know who is comparing themselves to You and wishing they had what you had: just say'n'!
Writer: Above, redux. Yeah.
Work-out: Getting in shape/staying in shape and eating healthfully isn't always easy, but once there, the feeling is like no other. A strong healthy body will take you into the minutes, days, months, years of your lives, and not in some half-assed way, but in Kick Ass way! Don't you want to be in this life for the long-haul, and not just "in" this life, but fully immersed? Then do it. Excuses are just that, and they're boring and fruitless, and get you No Where. You ain't foolin' no one but yourself—nuh uh. Find your truths and learn to ignore your sneaky excuses/justifications–and they can be sneaky.
Writer: This business isn't always easy, but ask yourself: Is this what I really want to do? Am I ready to be in this for the long-haul? Do I love writing more than my right arm? Am I ready to sacrifice? Can I handle the rejection without breaking up and breaking down? Sometimes this is the easiest best job in the entire danged ole world, and other times it sucks like a big fat suckity sucky britches—but I for one know I love it more than my right arm and have, and will, sacrifice for it.
Work-out: At the end of a grueling work-out session, find time to stretch those muscles, and then just as important as the work-out and the stretch comes the quiet moment of reflection. Time and distance from wants and needs will lift us away as we respect our bodies, minds, hearts.
Writer: When the writing day is done, find a moment to reflect on this writing life. Calm the voices, the rejections, the expectations, the harried hurry and the long-ass frustrating waits, and remember just why you love this life so much. The raw beginnings of it, when it was just you and a white space of whatever in the world you wanted to say to anyone who would listen, even if it was only your own ears. Find that joy in quiet reflection.
Work-out: Night comes. Time to rest the body. Rest is as important as movement. A good night's sleep prepares you for the next day's challenge. Let go and sleep sleep. Be grateful for the body that carries you from day to day. Keep it healthy and strong and then give it rest.
Writer: Ditto!
Finally, give yourself a big ole break, okay? Really, there isn't a one of us who can tell you how to do this work-out life or this writing life and why and how much and for how long—only you have that power within you. Relax. It'll all be okay. Your journey will not be mine and mine will not be hers his yours. Calm. Calm.
(Portions of this post were posted in another post when I posted about a post about a post similar to this post when I posted while not feeling kickass because GMR gave me his germs and for once I didn't fight then off, so this post is sorta like another post, which posted the post of posty posted post, most post-like. And do you know how hard it is for me to admit I caught some flu-like illness from GMR? Me? Mrs. McToughass Britches? Yeah, I'm pissed, and humbled, and all ARGHY, and achy! Even the kickass are knocked back sometimes. Post ya later!)

@BrandonMellor Column: 'Noles silence Death Valley in Win for the Ages
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – The Florida State football team debuted at No. 2 in the first BCS rankings of the 2013 season on Sunday night.
It's the highest BCS ranking by the Seminoles since the final BCS poll of the 2000 season (released Dec. 3, 2000).
The Seminoles rolled to a 51-14 victory at No. 3/4 Clemson on Saturday night behind 444 passing yards and four total touchdowns from redshirt freshman quarterback Jameis Winston and three forced turnovers from senior cornerback Lamarcus Joyner.
Florida State head coach Jimbo Fisher appeared on ESPN's BCS Countdown on Sunday night and talked about the `Noles in the polls and their performance this season. (Quotes from the show below)
Joyner Collects Walter Camp National Defensive Player of the Week
Following his monster game at No. 3/4 Clemson, senior cornerback Lamarcus Joyner was named the Walter Camp National Defensive Player of the Week on Sunday.
Joyner forced two fumbles, snagged one interception, registered one sack and tallied eight tackles against the Tigers on Saturday night. The Fort Lauderdale, Fla., native forced a fumble on the first play of the game to quiet the "Death Valley" crowd and later in the first quarter sacked Clemson quarterback Tajh Boyd, forcing a second fumble that was returned 37 yards for a touchdown by Mario Edwards, Jr. that gave FSU a 17-0 lead. Joyner also intercepted a Boyd pass in the second quarter.
Joyner is the fourth FSU player since 2004 (and the second in the last three weeks) to earn Walter Camp Player of the Week honors. Joyner joins Jameis Winston, who earned Offensive Player of the Week honors on Oct. 6. Former Seminoles A.J. Nicholson (Sept. 18, 2005) and Everette Brown (Nov. 23, 2008) were previous Defensive Player of the Week honorees.
Winston Named Athlon Sports National Player and Freshman of the Week
Redshirt freshman quarterback Jameis Winston was named Athlon Sports National Player and National Freshman of the week after passing for a career-high 444 yards and three touchdowns against Clemson. Winston added a rushing score and his passing yardage totaled marked his third consecutive 300-yard game which tied the FSU record.
It's Winston fourth time being named National Freshman of the Week and second time being honored as the National Player of the Week by Athlon Sports. He also captured both awards on Oct. 6.
Florida State Head Coach Jimbo Fisher BCS Countdown Transcript
On Florida State debuting at No. 2 in the BCS Rankings:
"I didn't know if we'd get quite to second – but I thought we'd be around third. I really did – maybe fourth at the lowest. But I thought we'd have a shot. I just didn't know. I'm very happy where we are at."
On his Reaction to the Noles being No. 2:
"I kind of had to step back for a second. I knew we'd be close. We've had a great season – played some great opponents. That's kind of where I thought we'd be – right there close."
On managing hype:
"I mean you have to make them aware of it because they are going to hear it every day. That's part of this whole run of going to a national championship, playing in the big games like we did at Clemson – you gotta handle the clutter. You have to understand how to deal with it and make it reality, because they're going to hear it. Understand that we're there because we've done a great job of what we're doing. We don't need to stop it – preparing each week, dotting I's, crossing T's, being very detailed-oriented and playing one-game seasons. That's going to be very critical down the stretch."
On changes in BCS Rankings and addressing the team:
"I will address it, but like I tell them: `Control things that you can control.' That's how we prepare and how we play, and then we'll let the polls work themselves out in the end. We have to just play well and prepare the play well. To me, that's the critical part. You want to always play well, but you have to have the power of preparation each week and it's going to be very critical for us to understand that. I think the maturity of our team will kind of push that through."
On facing NC State Saturday after the Wolfpack handed FSU its first loss in 2012:
"Well you have to remember how you felt after that game, and then you can't let it happen again and you have to understand that you have to fix that during the week. You have to prepare to play the game during the week and get your kids ready to go in the week and make sure they understand that. Don't worry about playing the game and wanting to play hard on Saturday. That will take care of itself. The power of preparation during the week is going to be the critical point. You just remember that pain that you had, and you don't want to deal with it again."

About the Community & Neighborhood Development Program ||| Currently Funded Activities ||| Results ||| Proposal Qualifications and Process ||| Materials Available from Us ||| How To Contact Us
Improvement and Expansion of Rental Housing
Preferences ||| Conditions ||| Activities
These activities improve the availability and quality of affordable rental housing, as well as strengthen existing neighborhoods through the improvement of current rental housing stock and management. These activities generally help agencies acquire and/or renovate affordable rental housing units and use the housing as a base for other neighborhood improvement activities or create affordable rental opportunities in areas of the City where few such opportunities now exist. The activities include acquisition and/or rehabilitation. These objectives address Objective A3 in the Five-Year Plan and generally benefit households with incomes 50% of median or less.
One objective of some of these activities is to expand the supply of rental housing for those with special needs into areas of the larger community (and the County) where few such housing units exist. The national benchmark is to minimize the number of census tracts with concentrations of households with poverty level incomes greater than 40% of the census tract population. Local benchmarks are stated in the Fair Share Inventory and the Consolidated Plan. The positive statement of this benchmark is to increase the economic diversity of census tracts where less than 25% of the households are low and moderate income.
Some of these activities also improve the existing stock and the availability of special needs housing units, particularly in areas of the City (and, for some funds, the County) where such housing does not currently exist, or helps eligible households to afford such housing through direct subsidies. These projects generally help non-profit agencies to acquire and/or renovate housing which combines supportive services for particular populations, such as homeless persons or persons with AIDS. These activities address Objective A4 in the Five-Year Plan and generally benefit households at 30% of the median income or less.
Funds will be applied to the acquisition, construction or rehab of permanent or transitional rental housing with rents at or below 85% of the area's Fair Market Rent.
Housing projects shall be limited to the development of a total of 8 or fewer units, unless located in areas of the City which do not have a high concentration of lower income housing, or are part of a larger neighborhood revitalization effort.
The 2000 objective is to bring a minimum of 40 units to code in a manner which makes them affordable and supports neighborhood activities, as well as assist 255 households into more stable or improved rental situations.
For information on how to submit a proposal in this category, click here.
Funds will be limited to $35,000 per unit, except for the following high-impact activities which may be provided up to $45,000 per unit or the maximum subsidy amount per the HOME guidelines, whichever is less:
SRO housing for individuals with incomes less than 30% of the area's median income
housing with rents less than 60% of the Fair Market Rent
housing for households with incomes less than 50% of the area's median income
Projects meeting the criteria of the CDA Scattered Site Fund may be eligible for an additional subsidy as an incentive to locate particular types of housing in areas of the City which do not have a high concentration of lower income housing.
Existing not-for-profit housing is eligible only for funds available through the Housing Development Reserve Fund.

Public Display of Movies
Under the Federal Copyright Act, movies that are rented or purchased cannot be displayed publicly unless they are licensed for public performance (performance rights). This restriction applies whether or not admission is charged. There are narrowly defined exceptions to this rule, which include private uses, such as watching a movie in a home with your family or a group of friends, or displaying a movie in a face-to-face teaching setting. Exceptions for educational use are defined by fair use guidelines and the 2002 TEACH Act.
Displaying Movies for Instruction
Instructors frequently ask whether they can show a particular movie in their class, be it face-to-face, fully online, or a hybrid of both. One commonly held misconception is that anything goes when movies or other media are shown in an educational setting, especially when they are made accessible within a password-protected system such as Blackboard. The truth is that other requirements apply, both for the institution and for the instructor.
Face-to-face teaching settings
According to fair-use guidelines, an instructor can display a movie in its entirety within a face-to-face instructional setting, provided that the movie has an instructional purpose related to the curriculum of the course and that attendance at the movie showing is limited to students who are enrolled in the course. The copy of the movie that is performed must be legally made and acquired. See Can a school show a movie without obtaining permission from the copyright owner? under http://www.copyright.gov/help/faq/faq-fairuse.html
Online teaching settings
The TEACH Act permits instructors to stream movies in online educational settings under the following circumstances:
- The performance is of a non-dramatic literary work or musical work.
- The performance of any other work, such as dramatic or other audiovisual works, is only in "reasonable and limited portions." In other words, this generally excludes showing full-length movies online.
- The performance of any work is "in an amount comparable to that which is typically displayed in the course of a live classroom session."
- The work that is shown was not produced specifically for paid, online educational use. In other words, movies and other materials produced and marketed by educational publishers cannot be shown without obtaining a license.
- If a movie is digitized to show online, the amount digitized is limited to the amount that may be displayed.
- If a movie is digitized to show online, the amount digitized is limited to the amount that may be displayed.
- The resultant digital version of the movie is not made available to the institution outside of the course, but is secured through appropriate technological measures from being accessed by anyone other than the instructor or the students for the limited period of time in which they need to view the content.
For these exceptions to be applicable, the institution and information technology administrators must meet additional requirements:
- It must be an accredited non-profit institution.
- The institution must have instituted policies regarding copyright.
- The institution must provide informational materials regarding copyright.
- There must be a statement, visible to students, that materials within the course are subject to copyright protection.
- Movies and other content must only be shown to students officially enrolled in the course.
- The institution must implement technological measures to prevent students from downloading and retaining the content.
- Copies of movies shown cannot be made illegally by bypassing technological measures implemented to prevent copying.
- Movies and other media cannot be made available to students for a longer period than is necessary.
- Any digital copies of media stored long-term must not be used for further copying.
If your use of movies or digital media does not fit within these exceptions, you need to obtain permission from the copyright holder to display the movie. This generally applies if you wish to show a full-length dramatic film online. You may find it useful to contact your department's library representative to see if the library can help you in obtaining copyright permission.
Copying and Displaying Movies for Non-Educational Purposes
Full copyright restrictions apply to the display and copy of movies and other media for non-educational purposes. Any unlicensed copying or display of media for any reason other than those described above is considered copyright violation and theft and is subject to prosecution under the law. This includes:
- Bringing a camcorder to a movie theater
- Using a peer-to-peer network to download and exchange digital movie and other media files
- Streaming movies online outside of the narrowly defined exceptions given above for educational settings. It is unlawful to both host and link to illegally streamed movies.
- Burning and copying DVDs and CDs and then distributing them.
- Illegal public performance.

Why the 49ers Love to Stretch
San Francisco's Players Believe Their Fixation With Stretching Has Given the Team an Edge
The San Francisco 49ers' two-year rise from the depths of mediocrity is widely attributed to ferocious defense and the dazzling running ability of quarterback Colin Kaepernick.
But as the 49ers head to Atlanta favored to beat the Falcons this weekend and advance to their first Super Bowl in 18 years, here's another possibility: Maybe it's that they stretch a lot.
That's not a proposition you'd want to state too loudly in the 49ers' locker room. The San Francisco stretching program is something team officials refuse to talk about, ostensibly for competitive reasons. But let's face it: The same 300-pound linemen who quickly brag about how much weight they can bench aren't likely to admit that they can do the splits. That's the province of cheerleaders, isn't it?
Privately, 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh has made it clear that stretching isn't for sissies, for good reason. Stretching, research shows, can dramatically reduce the risk of injury, and nothing about the 49ers is more remarkable than their bill of health. Since Harbaugh took over the team two years ago, Niners players have missed 159 games due to injury. (A missed game is one player missing one game.) According to Stats LLC, the three other teams left in the playoffs have had dramatically higher injury rates. Over the past two years, the Falcons have missed 29% more games and the Baltimore Ravens 94% more than the 49ers. The New England Patriots' number is 440, an injury rate 176% higher than the 49ers.
Several 49ers say the explanation is a stretching regimen. "We do these old school stretches—heavy, heavy squats with chains, a lot of flexibility, a lot of warming up when a lot of people in the NFL skip warming up," said safety Donte Whitner. "That's why we have a good, healthy football team right now."
That the 49ers stretch religiously may seem less surprising than that other teams don't. But, actually, stretching often gets short shrift compared with weight lifting, agility drills and sprints. Mike Bracko, a sports physiologist based in Calgary, said stretching is considered a much lower priority in the NFL than "diets or weight training or jump-training."
What the 49ers do, according to quarterback Scott Tolzien, isn't much more than what is done in pee wee football or grade-school physical-education class. But en route to the NFL, players often lose that discipline, sometimes assuming that their superior ability confers a similarly superior defense against injury.
In the 49ers training facilities, however, it's P.E. class all over again. Before lifting a single weight, a 49er must hit a cardio machine for 10 minutes, a muscle-warming tactic shown to ward off injury. From there, on the field, the team has simple but crucial periods of basic stretching before and after each practice (something overlooked by many teams, players say).
Then, in the locker room, the hard-core stretching begins. One example is a deep squat, wherein a player bearing as many 45-pound plates as possible squats low enough to lightly touch the seat of a chair, then rises and repeats the exercise as many times as possible. While building muscle, that exercise also increases flexibility and range of motion throughout a player's core, increasing agility and speed.
According to Whitner, a seven-year veteran who previously played for the Buffalo Bills, most teams rarely do much institutional stretching. He said most players simply lift weights to build strength and go through drills that rarely mimic what actually happens on a football field.
"Usually I'm sore; I haven't been sore lately," said rookie running back LaMichael James, attributing that improvement to the team's stretching routines. "Obviously it shows [it works] because everyone's still healthy. No one has hamstring problems or muscle problems. Everyone is even keel. A lot of it goes out to us getting inside our muscles."
Men, even when they are highly paid athletes, have a hard time accepting that flexibility is a crucial component of fitness, said Tony Horton, creator of the P90X workout videos. A collection of 12 workout tapes, P90X is wildly popular among people—including professional athletes—who want to get or stay buff. But for many men, the most difficult part of P90X isn't its heavy emphasis on pull-ups and push-ups, but rather its relentless call for stretching and warming up.
"Stretching requires patience, holding the same pose for five breaths, and men aren't patient—they like to keep moving," said Horton, a personal trainer whose clients have included professional athletes. "Women enjoy stretching, generally speaking, and men don't. But in any workout the payoff comes when you do the stuff you don't enjoy and aren't good at."
Linebacker Clark Haggans arrived in San Francisco this year and wasn't surprised to hear the training staff address the four major types of lifting weights. He was surprised, however, that they spent just as much time talking about flexibility, requiring players at different positions to perform different stretches. Initially skeptical, he is now sold. "It's kept our muscles from doing something funky," he said.

Special Report: False Alarms
LOS ANGELES - The alarm industry in Los Angeles has sought a legal avenue to block a controversial Los Angeles Police Department policy to stop responding to unverified burglar alarms in the city.
According to Les Gold, an attorney representing the industry, the Greater Los Angeles Security Alarm Association (GLASAA) filed the petition in California Superior Court in late March.
On April 7, Gold said the city asked for a continuance in the case, which was scheduled to be heard on April 18. According to Gold, GLASAA was prepared to agree to the city's proposal to continue the case, provided the police department agrees to not implement the nonresponse policy until July 1. The policy was originally scheduled to go into effect on April 15.
When the city balked at that condition, Gold said GLASAA declined to support a continuance in the case, and it was placed on the court's docket for a May 8 hearing. According to Gold, the city can not attempt to implement the policy until after the hearing.
The lawsuit asks the court to block the LAPD from implementing the policy for several reasons.
GLASAA officials have said that the policy conflicts with an existing city ordinance, and also contends that because the police commission acted without the authority of the city council, the policy is not legal.
While he did not want to discuss the specifics of the case before the hearing, Gold said he was "very confident†that the result would be favorable for the industry.
According to Jerry Lenander, GLASAA executive director, GLASAA felt that the lawsuit was "the only way to preserve the (current) level of public safety for 250,000 to 350,000 property owners in the city of Los Angeles.â€Â
In addition to filing the injunction, GLASAA, in conjunction with the California Alarm Association has started a legal defense fund to allow members to help support the association's efforts. Officials have set a $350,000 fundraising goal to cover legal fees incurred in the case.

Debra A. Anderson, Director of Public Affairs & Marketing
North Dakota University System
Phone: 701.328.2962
BISMARCK, N.D. - North Dakota University System colleges and universities provide multiple benefits to the state's economy and the lives of North Dakotans, as evidenced by reports provided at the June 16, 2011, meeting of the State Board of Higher Education.
"North Dakotans recognize that our campuses are committed to student achievement and to helping create student success," said Bill Goetz, NDUS chancellor. "But, clearly, our influence and impact are even broader. The University System's response to the state's challenges, opportunities and need for policy development have statewide impact."
A brief summary of four reports provided to the board follows:
University of North Dakota School of Medicine and Health Sciences Advisory Committee
: North Dakota faces a serious healthcare workforce shortage, according to an annual report provided by Dr. Joshua Wynne, UND vice president for health affairs and dean of the UND School of Medicine and Health Sciences, speaking on behalf of the medical school's 15-member advisory council. Healthcare workforce challenges include both the number of physicians practicing in the state and the availability of physicians in rural North Dakota. Wynne also discussed the healthcare impacts of lifestyle choices and the disease burdens of an aging state population. Initiatives approved by the SBHE and funded by the 2011 Legislative Assembly will enable the medical school to make significant progress on addressing these challenges.
Workforce Training Business Plan
: TrainND, North Dakota's workforce training system, continues to develop curriculum and training to meet the needs of the state's growth industries, such as healthcare and energy, according to the annual plan presented by Marsha Krotseng, Ph.D., NDUS vice chancellor for strategic planning and executive director of the College Technical Education Council. North Dakota's globally competitive business climate continues to thrive despite challenges such as housing shortages, infrastructure needs and national policy changes. The four regional quadrants of the TrainND system are evolving to meet market demands.
State Board of Agriculture Research and Extension:
Innovative stewardship of the land and livestock guides the work of SBARE, according to an annual report presented by Rodney Howe, SBARE president, and D.C. Coston, Ph.D., North Dakota State University vice president for agriculture and university extension. Howe and Coston discussed several topics, such as the importance of crop varieties developed at NDSU to North Dakota's agriculture industry, future uses of agricultural byproducts and the impact of NDSU Agriculture and Extension Services on the daily lives of North Dakotans.
Carnegie Research Classifications
: North Dakota enjoys a 7:1 return on its investment in research conducted at the University of North Dakota and North Dakota State University, according to a report presented by Robert Kelley, Ph.D., president of the University of North Dakota, and Dean Bresciani, Ph.D., president of North Dakota State University. Kelley and Bresciani discussed the tremendous impact of campus research on specific sectors of North Dakota's economy as well as opportunities for additional collaboration among the two research universities and other colleges and universities in the North Dakota University System.

Analogies between poetry and music go back thousands of years, to the very origins of poetry itself. Poetry, we are told, is music, or at least more like music than other uses of language. Poetry translation also goes back a very long way. And so does the idea that music cannot be translated.... If poetry is music (or at least is characterized by a musical element), and music cannot be translated, how is a translator to cope with the music in poetry? That simple question has never been addressed directly and systematically, but it is one that binds together translators themselves, and two of the academic fields of inquiry that have proved most compelling over recent years: translation studies, and word and music studies. This conference will bring together people across the spectrum, from philosophers of aesthetics who have studied how words cope with the strange phenomenon we call music, to literature specialists who have dealt both in theory and in practice with how music in poetry passes from one language to another, and experts on the history of translation. The interdisciplinary nature of this conference will ensure multiple approaches to the problem, and cast new light, we hope, on one of the most challenging questions for literary translation.

Shortly after Hurricane Sandy, Verizon pledged $1 million to support relief efforts. To date, Verizon employees, Verizon Wireless customers and the Verizon Foundation have pledged more than $6.2 million to assist with relief and rebuilding efforts. The following organizations will receive grants:
New Jersey
- Community Food Bank of New Jersey, Southern Branch
- Habitat for Humanity (Essex, Union, Ocean Counties)
- Atlantic City Rescue Mission
- Food Bank of Monmouth & Ocean Counties
- Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Ocean County
- Mayor McCormac Charity Fund (Woodbridge Township, NJ)

"Recovery is the most difficult part of dealing with a natural disaster, and these additional Verizon Foundation grants will support the important work these organizations do in helping communities recover and rebuild in New Jersey and New York," said Mario Turco, president of the Philadelphia Tri-State Region for Verizon Wireless, which includes central and southern New Jersey.
In the wake of the storm, Verizon worked around the clock to ensure the network stayed strong. More than a dozen Verizon Wireless mobile assets, including 40-foot mobile communications trailers called Wireless Emergency Communication Centers (WECCs), were staged throughout the New York metro and Philadelphia tri-state regions to help Hurricane Sandy survivors recharge their phones, reconnect with loved ones and apply online for Federal Emergency Management Agency disaster recovery grants.
Verizon Wireless customers can still make a $10 donation to the American Red Cross by texting REDCROSS to 90999, and those who would like to give more can donate up to $50 via text.
Verizon Wireless encourages customers to visit the Verizon Wireless Emergency Preparedness site to find tips and information to help them stay connected before, during and after an emergency.
The Verizon Foundation is focused on accelerating social change by using the company's innovative technology to help solve pressing problems in education, health care and energy management. Since 2000, the Verizon Foundation has invested more than half a billion dollars to improve the communities where Verizon employees work and live. Verizon's employees are generous with their donations and their time, having logged more than 6.2 million hours of service to make a positive difference in their communities.

[Daz Dillinger] (Soopafly)
(A Soopafly/Daz production) Suckas!
How many real homeboys y'all got out there?
Can y'all count on one hand?... I can
Straight up, Dogg Pound Gangstas
Funky fresh in the flesh
Yeah, that's what I'm talkin' bout
Yo Kurupt, kick that
I ain't shit without my homeboys, although at times it seems
Tryin' to make it to different stages, lifes and dreams
Different mistakes that was made during the time of the struggle
Two pits unleashed but held by one muzzle
It's complicated like a puzzle, puzzle pieces and money double
The royal rumble, fools really in trouble
I'mma hit the spot and snatch all the knots and pots
Then get ghost while the most of y'all get gots
To get the fuck outta here, ain't nobody else I can call
(Who that?) Besides my motherfuckin' doggs
I ain't shit without my homeboys
[Daz Dillinger]
When there's trouble who the fuck can you rely on
To die on onsite, me and niggas do it wrong or right
I ignite the fire, marijuana gets me higher
All this drinkin' and smokin' really gettin' a nigga wired
Gettin' paid, that's my only desire
Big Style, Lil' Floss, Tray Deee and me
K-U-R-U-P-T, Soopafly and Crooked I
Until then, I hope God don't pass me by
Everyday I work harder to try
Never to fall but I hope to rise
Everyday before I open my eyes
To my cousin Big Flip locked down in the pen
To my other homeboys I won't ever see again
Life gone in the wind, like a lottery spin
When it comes down to it nigga who's ya foe and ya friend?
And I ain't shit without my homeboys
[Crooked I]
So what could make a crook stay down for his troop?
Could it be the gunshots we ducked as a youth, huh?
What about the cops we hid from on the roof
Or the shootouts we survived without wearin' a bulletproof
We fruits from a tree that was rotten to the root
We wasn't 'posed to make it, our survival don't compute
I had to chase the paper cause the loot would run from me
We had Navigator dreams and only bus money
We rise and we fall together, all together
We crawl and we ball together, doggs forever
Like uh (and ya don't stop!)
Fuck around with one of the homies, watch the Glock pop
One love and keep hollerin' back
We can split my last dollar in fact, pop your collar to that
Crooked I need the whole click
And like frozen chitlins, that's some cold shit
My nigga, some cold shit
Cold shit when you elevate and get into some more shit
When we ride together niggas be like "Oh shit!"
Dogg Pound in the house rockin' the party, all night long
Gettin' high to the break of dawn
Chipped up like a cellular phone
Back up, watch it shine like chrome
Individually we the shit
But together we can't be fucked with, we crush shit
Never settle for less than the plush shit
But still don't forget when we was broke
About 9 or 10 locs with only one joint to smoke
Man, I can count on both hands the different stands
And plans niggas took to make it better for the fam'
We made our first five grand, was like "god damn"
New khakis and Cortez
We learned the essential meaning of what a whore is
Still clockin' more biz
Always lookin' up cause if you look down you're fucked
Soopafly, Taylor'd up like Chuck's
But I ain't shit without my homeboys
And that's real shit
[Baby S]
I ain't shit without my homeboys...
True thuggish Capone's, real niggas I knew before I was grown
A lot of motherfuckers died, but I'mma still ride
And represent the evil motherfuckin' Westside
It ain't nothin' but trues, real niggas who paid they dues
Picture me rollin' with gay dudes
Nigga please, we G's and dress like we serve ki's
On the block where we chop rock, re-cop and make G's
Down to die for each other, it's you and I for each other
In a gangsta matrimony we brothers
Can't nothin' seperate game, we game from initiation
Marks fuck around and catch heat sparks
Rump Segal, Lonnie Mack, E-Mack, it's you mayne

The History of Alpha Phi
Alpha Phi was founded on September 18, 1872 on the campus of Syracuse University. It was the fourth Greek-letter organization to be founded for women and currently has 170 active chapters and more than 200,000 initiated members. When Alpha Phi was founded, there were only twenty women attending the entire university.
Alpha Phi's motto is "union hand in hand," and its official colors are bordeaux and gold. The Alpha Phi sorority is dedicated to service, and makes raising funds and completing community service a central responsibility for all its members. In 1864, the sorority decided that heart care would be its primary cause, and the sorority's current philanthropy is now the American Heart Association. The Alpha Phi Red Dress Gala benefiting the organization is the event of the year!
Notable Alpha Phi alumnae include Janice Woods Windle, author of True Women, Lisa Colagrossi, Emmy-winning television anchor, Susie Berning, professional golfer, and Catherine Maples Waynick, one of the eight women to ever be bishops in the U.S.'s Episcopal Church.

Minnesota game wrap (with pics!)
Blah, blah, punching bag, blah...
I thought it was going to be easy, I didn't think it was going to be that easy. And while it might be fun for a little while, by the 2nd half it was kind of embarrassing and pointless; unless you're a second stringer. We got a glimpse of some of the younger players, so I guess that's good from a program standpoint, if not from a viewer's POV.
You had me at hello...
Ok, so maybe I hadn't ever heard of you before you got hired, Mr. Borges. But what you did on Saturday, well, I haven't smiled like that since 1947, and I wasn't even alive in 1947.
You found a way to effectively use two of our best (highest rated) players on the same play. You sowed confusion and hesitation into opposing players and DC's. You called a halfback pass that was freaking WIDE OPEN.
To be true, I was a little worried about some of the playcalling in the first halves of the previous games. But after demonstrating so much flexibility and creativity in that game, you've won me over.
My hat is off to you, sir.
It's the simple things ...
At its core, football is really just about blocking and tackling. Almost anyone can draw up a play (or copy it from someone else). But it really is about how well the players execute that makes the difference between good teams and bad teams. Of course, it is easier to execute when your guys are bigger, faster, and more talented.
Denard's first TD was a good playcall, but the blitzing OLB didn't take himself out of the play like he was supposed to.
He almost brings down Denard from behind.
But I'm really impressed with the increase in Denard's leg strength this year. He's broken through a lot more arm tackles than last season. Other than the blitzer, we've got a hat on a hat. It's up to the QB to make one man miss, and he does, because he's awesome.
And the highest praise I can give a WR is to note when they sustain blocks downfield. Here we've got three guys making me think good things about them.
This next play is a type of sprint draw to Shaw
The blocking is setup perfectly by the fake and there's a wall to the outside.
Unfortunately Shaw misreads this great crackback block by Gallon and dances too much. He loses momentum and gets tackled for a modest gain. (more on this later)
When your players are too small, or slow, or confused to execute properly, you end up looking like Gophers.
The Minny O-line has actually gotten their assignments correct and have a small crease opened up. The pulling linemen has to choose which of the run-blitzers he needs to pick up.
He chose ... poorly. And the rest of our front seven collapse the hole.
And when you've got guys like Mike Martin and Will Campbell that can just run over people, that's nice.
If you're wondering who was supposed to block BWC, it's that lump of white that RVB is trampling over while he drives his own blocker into the backfield.
That looks painful.
So underneath all the fancy chalk talk, it really helps to have guys that can win one on one battles, and go to the correct places. It's all just blocking, tackling, and misdirection.
And throwing to guys who are wide open.
And throwing to guys who are wide open.
The RB Committee.
At this point in the season, Fitz and Vince have clearly established themselves as options #1 and #2 on the depth chart. I think Fitz can be that everydown back we need, but we'll have to see how well he holds up against non-laughable bigten defenses. With his TD trifecta, Vince just proved he's not a runningback. Vincent Smith is just a football player. And a damn good one.
Shaw... step into my office son. As a senior, you should be a team leader. You have track star speed. Your ball security has dramatically improved from the RR era. And we can really tell that you run with great effort and determination. But dude, STOP DANCING. You're not a dancer.
You're wasting all that great speed because during the time that you should be accelerating, you're two footing around in the backfield. You're not setting up and reading your blockers well enough. And you're still lacking that certain leg strength to run through arm tackles.
When someone grabs Denard's jersey, he runs so hard that the jersey rips away. You looked like someone hooked a towing cable to your bumper.
You've got a lot of potential. But just cut down on the moves. Make one cut and get upfield. Or better yet, make one cut and race fools to the sideline. Chris Perry made a career of that. And learn to fall forward fergodsakes. Instead of trying to dance around the tackler, deliver a blow and fall forward. If we really are going to play man ball, the difference between a 3.3 ypc average and 4.0 ypc average caused by simply falling forward is going to be a big deal.
And that goes for all the youngsters too.
Hopkins looks like he might have a bright future as a B.J. Askew-esque FB. It's just Minnesota, but he got one of those fabled 'double blocks' that all FB's dream about. And he seems to catch the ball pretty well.
And we learned a little bit about Rawls, albeit in garbage time. Early returns show good balance, decent speed, but not terribly explosive or shifty. He kinda reminds me of Kevin Grady, but not quite as chiseled. Let's just say he's got a low aspect ratio for a tailback. Looks pretty strong around the thighs and midsection. I'm thinking he could eat himself into a starring FB role in a year or two.
- If Denard is called "Shoelace", maybe Devin can be called "Shoeless"
- The FG kicking is quietly becoming a non-ulcer-inducing facet of our team.
- However, the kickoff coverage still sucks, I'm so glad we got to practice 11 of them this game.
- I really like it when crowd's continue to sing a song after the band/PA system has to cut off. But there's a time and place for it. Livin' on a Prayer should be reserved for something like near the end of a close Redwings game where the line "We're halfway there" makes sense. Leading by 40+ in the third quarter calls for something more like "Sweet Caroline" because "Good time never felt so good." (Even if it is cliche')

BUIES CREEK, N.C. _ Campbell was held to only two hits, but that would be all they needed in a 3-2 win against the Lipscomb Bisons Saturday afternoon at Taylor Field.
The Bisons won one of the three games in the Atlantic Sun Conference series.
The Bisons jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the second inning. Zac Miller reached base on a walk to start the inning. He moved to second on a one-out single to the shortstop by Jeff Baumgartner. Patrick O'Rourke grounded out to the shortstop to advance Miller to third and Baumgartner to second. Miller scored on a balk by Campbell pitcher Quinn LeSage.
Campbell took a 2-1 lead in the fourth inning.
The Bisons came back to tie the game at 2-2 in the top of the sixth with one run, a solo homer run by Miller to left field to lead off the inning.
Campbell came back in the bottom of the sixth with the go-ahead run.
LeSage, 3-2, picked up the win for Campbell. He gave up six of the Bisons seven hits and both runs. Ryan Hamme earned the save for Campbell, his third of the year.
Josh Smith, 3-4, pitched the second complete game of the series for the Bisons. He struck out four and walked five. Only one of the three runs he allowed was earned as the Bisons committed three errors.
