Let's face it —the student loan process is a little cumbersome: lots of information to gather, dates to remember, forms to complete, etc. And up until last month, borrowers had to use a PIN —a 4-digit password used to sign your loan application. Parents also had to have their own unique PIN.
Now the FAFSA PIN has been replaced with the FSA ID. This new ID simplifies the overall borrowing process for students and their parents (who also have to have their own FSA ID) and complies with new security requirements.
What's in it for me?
This new ID is great for students in several ways because it:
• Removes your social security number and date of birth from your log-in credentials,
• Creates a more secure and efficient way to verify your information when you log in to any of the U.S. Dept. of Education's sites,
• Allows you to easily update your personal information, and
• Makes it much easier for you to retrieve your username and password should you forget them.
What can I do with my new FSA ID?
Your FSA ID allows you to apply for loans AND access all related repayment information once it's time to start repaying your loans (typically 6 months after you graduate). You get direct access to all of the following helpful U.S. Department of Education sites, sites you'll visit before starting college and four years or more later after you graduate:
• FAFSA on the Web where you can apply for student loans,
• StudentAid.gov where you can view your loans and grants and learn where to make payments,
• StudentLoans.gov where you can apply for income-driven repayment plans or a consolidation loan, and
• Agreement to Serve where you can manage your TEACH Grant.
How do I get the FSA ID?
That's easy. You can apply for your FSA ID here. If you currently have a PIN (that you remember!), you can easily link it to your FSA ID, giving you immediate access to all the sites listed above. If you've forgotten or don't have a PIN, you'll have to wait 1-3 days to gain access to those sites while your personal information is confirmed.
The great news for you?
This new FSA ID makes the student loan process easier, saves you time and gives you better access to all your important student loan information.

First things first. I'm a slingshot dealer, so take my review for what it's worth, but as a dealer, we get to ride and compare a lot of kites.
Second, I love the 2012 Rally for strapless riding and wave riding and have spent the majority of this year and some of last year riding strapless due to injury recoveries and I enjoy strapless riding.
Reason i bring this up is my twin tip riding and boosting have been few and far between. Review below is based on yesterday's session on both twin tips and strapless.
Quality, construction, etc is all top notch as always. I used the 6m 2012 and 10m 2013 Rally yesterday for training and had a guy tomahawk my kites quite often and it just kept on going.
Riding style of the 2013 is geared more towards big air, ripping upwind, tons of range and tons of power. It has a slightly heavier bar pressure than last year, but in no way is it heavy. It's slightly less than light bar pressure. Last years Rally was light bar pressure and fast turning. This year is quick turning, but jumping is insane and the hang time is better and it's more stable in gusty winds and for heavier riders.
Last years 2012 though was a wave riding dream. Fast turning that would pivot turn on it's wing tip. This years is an arc turn, which isn't as good for wave riding for some. It drifts really well though also. Both kites are similar in drift. The 2012 Rally would turn the instant you cranked the bar. The 2013 would have a very brief delay in turning, but if I cranked the bar all the way, it would turn quick, but not fast.
Yesterday was one of my better days riding in a long long time especially on twin tips. Due to many injuries and recoveries, my twin tip riding has been completely replaced by riding strapless surf boards all year and a lot last year. Plus it's fun to ride strapless.
So I wanted to try the 12m and see how it boosted. I went higher than I've ever been on 4-5 jumps on that kite. The lift is very impressive and I felt at home right away on this kite. It was one of the easier kites to feel comfortable jumping right out of the bag. The hang time is incredible, but hard for me to honestly compare to last years since i didn't jump last years much at all. I hear from others it has much better hang time.
It's going to be a hard choice between these 2 kites. Some guys, including me, like last years much better for waves, but this years for boosting. I have quite a few of last years Rally's ordered due to this knowing some will prefer that kite. It also boosts really well, but isn't quite as stable overall for bigger riders.
When I rode the 12m 2013 Rally strapless, I wanted it to pivot turn so I could make more aggressive turns. If overpowered, the 2012 Rally will pivot turn much better.
Hope this helps,

Most of us in the Philadelphia Tri-state area had too many problems viewing the series between the Phillies and the Giants. Cablevision subcribers haven't been that lucky though and here's the story about it from the FCC with the latest on the dispute.
From the FCC on their website
What Cablevision Subscribers Should Know About Receiving Fox-Owned Stations WNYW (NY), WWOR (NJ) & WTXF (PA)
Cablevision and Fox had an agreement for Cablevision to carry WNYW, WWOR, and WTXF that expired at 11:59 pm EDT on October 15, 2010. They have been negotiating to renew that agreement, but failed to reach a new agreement before the deadline. As a result, Cablevision stopped carrying WNYW, WWOR, and WTXF. This dispute affects only Cablevision subscribers who wish to view programming on WNYW, WWOR, and WTXF. It does not affect Cablevision's other programming, except as otherwise described below. If Cablevision and Fox reach a new agreement in the future, the affected programming may be restored to Cablevision's system.
Cable and satellite operators carry local television broadcast stations based on contracts with the stations. When these contracts end, the parties extend or renew the contract. In almost all cases, agreement is reached and the station is carried without interruption. On some occasions, the operator and the station fail to reach an agreement, and the cable or satellite operator must drop the station until an agreement is reached. These are private agreements, though federal law requires the parties to negotiate with each other in good faith.
What can I do while WNYW, WWOR, and WTXF are not available on Cablevision systems?
If you wish to view WNYW, WWOR, or WTXF, you may be able to use one of the following options to continue viewing the station:
1. Subscribe to another pay service that is carrying the station. In the affected areas, other available pay services include: AT&T, DIRECTV, DISH Network, RCN (limited areas of Brooklyn), and Verizon FIOS. NOTE: Not all of these pay service providers are available throughout Cablevision's service areas in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. You should contact the pay service provider to determine whether they provide service to your residence. In addition, you should be aware that DISH's agreement for these stations is set to expire on November 1 unless a new agreement is reached between DISH and Fox.
2. Watch the station (and other broadcasting stations) over the air using an antenna and a digital television.
3. Watch the station (and other broadcasting stations) over the air using an antenna and an analog television attached to a digital-to-analog converter box.
How can I watch a station over the air without a pay TV subscription?
To watch a television station over the air, you need either:
• A digital TV set
• An analog TV set connected to a digital-to-analog converter box
In either case, you will need an appropriate antenna connected to the TV set or the converter box. Depending on your location, this could be either an outdoor rooftop antenna or an indoor antenna.
To check for the over-the-air signals that can be received at your location, use the DTV Reception Maps available at http://www.dtv.gov/maps/.
For more information on antennas, see the Antenna Guide at http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/consumerfacts/dtvantennas.html/
Why do I need a converter box if I have an analog TV set?
• Federal law required that by June 12, 2009, all full-power TV broadcast stations stop broadcasting in analog format and broadcast only in digital format. Although cable subscribers can still rely on analog TVs to work with their cable systems, if you are using an analog-only TV and want to watch a station over the air, you will need to use a converter box that receives the digital signals broadcast over the air and converts them so that you can see them on your analog TV.
• Converter boxes may be available from consumer electronics retailers in your community and online.
Are any other networks part of the negotiations between Cablevision and Fox?
The negotiations between Cablevision and Fox also include certain cable networks: Fox Business, Nat Geo Wild, and Fox Deportes. Given Cablevision and Fox's failure to renew or extend their agreement for these cable networks by 11:59 pm EDT on October 15, 2010, Cablevision also stopped carrying those networks. Cable networks are not governed by the FCC's retransmission consent rules, and unlike broadcast television stations, they are not available over the air. They may, however, be available from the other pay TV services listed above. You can find out from the pay TV providers serving your area what programming networks they carry.

Get connected -- FICON to ESCON
ESCON is incompatible with the newer FICON-based systems. This tip looks at various ways you can tackle this dilemma.
In 1999, IBM began selling FICON, the mainframe equivalent to the Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP), as a way to connect mainframe systems to disk and tape storage devices. Following in FCP's footsteps, the company is expected to announce 4 gigabit per second (Gbps) FICON in 2006.
But ESCON, the protocol that pre-dated FICON as a systems-to-storage connection, is tenacious and still figures prominently in many mainframe shops, says Greg Schulz, senior analyst at the Evaluator Group Inc., in Greenwood Village, Colo. "There's still quite a bit of ESCON out there," he says, on devices like disk arrays and tape libraries, as well as on peripherals like printers, check sorters and even ATMs.
On paper, migrating from ESCON seems like it should be a no-brainer. ESCON runs at 17 megabytes per second (MBps) vs. FICON's 200 MBps. From a disaster recovery standpoint, FICON channels can be natively extended to 100 km, but ESCON's reach is only 3 km. ESCON supports far fewer device addresses than FICON. Then there's the question of maintenance and support. IBM has end-of-life'd ESCON, and while it still supports it, the cost of maintaining and supporting older equipment can be prohibitive.
"Customers have a dilemma," says Brian Larsen, director of product management for storage networking at McData. "They want to take advantage of things like increased port density and port consolidation on the host, but their ESCON stuff is working fine and it's paid for."
ESCON may not be broken, but it is incompatible with the newer FICON-based systems that many users have upgraded to. For that segment of the mainframe population, storage networking equipment vendor McData is now selling the Intrepid FICON Converter (IFC). Based on Optica Technologies' Prizm module, the 2 U-high rack-mount device supplies one or two FICON channels and up to 12 ESCON channels, and allows you to connect an ESCON-attached tape device to a newer host.
That's the most common scenario today by far, says Mario Blandini, product marketing manager for enterprise products at Brocade. "There's often a large tape library asset the company has not depreciated and that they'd like to leverage with a new FICON-based zSeries," he says. Last month, Brocade announced its new 4 Gbps SilkWorm 48000 director, which supports Fibre Channel and FICON, but not ESCON.
So far, McData's IFC does nothing for environments with ESCON-attached disk and a FICON host. Nor does it address the problem of trying to pair an older ESCON-based host with newer FICON storage devices. According to Larsen, Optica has a version of the product on its roadmap that would cater to those environments.
"At this point, we see more people trying to migrate the hosts first, then the storage; but there's really no right way to do this," he says.

Booking Gospel Choirs
What is gospel singing?
Gospel is usually sung by a group of vocalists who perform live gospel music together, specialising in religious, soul or popular music for occasions such as weddings, corporate events and private parties. With spiritual and religious roots based in American folk music, gospel music features dominant vocals, strong rhythms and intricate melodies, and often incorporates elements of jazz and blues.
Gospel groups can be made up of anything from 4 – 8+ members, and will either perform a cappella (voices alone) or accompanied by instruments such as piano/organ, drums, and guitar. The artists will often sway and clap while performing, in reaction to the heavily rhythmical style of the music.
Unlike more traditional choirs, they tend to have a very distinctive, snappy style to their outfits, and some even offer the option of wearing choir robes if that's what you'd like at your event.

Religious or non-religious, our choirs will perform beautiful, powerful and expressive renditions of songs for a range of occasions and moods.

Popular types of gospel music
Southern Gospel Music
Established in the early 1900s in South East America, southern gospel is a genre of Christian music originally created to express faith and 'spread the word' of evangelical Christianity. Traditionally featuring a quartet of all-male vocals and a piano, the style has since become incorporated into popular music tracks by American artists and UK artists, such as The Blackwood Family, Christian Troubadours, Jake Hess, The Hoppers and even Elvis and The Rolling Stones. Several songs from the Cohen brothers' 2000 film, O Brother Where Art Thou nod their caps to the southern gospel style.
Traditional Black Gospel
Written to voice personal or public religious belief, traditional black gospel music was born in America during the conversion of black slaves to Christianity. At this point, many African cultures and religions were combining with Western, and the 'spirituals' were the songs that described their religious Christian principles, while depicting the torment of slavery and also delivering secret coded messages, for example, how fugitives could avoid capture. Songs in this genre include Wade in the Water, Song of the Free, and Swing Low, Sweet Chariot.
Contemporary Gospel
Also known as urban gospel, this modern form of Christian music remains spiritual but is separated from its predecessors only in style and sound. Completely established by the late 1980s, contemporary gospel draws its influence from modern music like rock and roll, jazz, disco, RnB, and funk. Think Shackles (Praise You) by Mary Mary, Oh Happy Day by Edwin Hawkins, and other artists like Tramaine Hawkins, John P. Kee and Oleta Adams.

Your singers can provide the main entertainment at your event, or can provide vocal support to your guests singing during a wedding celebration, making for some uplifting, unforgettable moments
For corporate functions, gospel music can thrill your guests at drinks receptions, cocktail parties, and awards ceremonies.
Space considerations at your event
Choirs can adapt the numbers in their group to fit with both your venue and occasion. If your venue has plenty of room, then you can wow your guests with the visual and musical power of a large gospel group. Or if your celebrations are taking place in a smaller venue, you can still have a striking but smaller ensemble by reducing the line-up.
A standard setup of four singers performing with a digital piano will need a space of around 4 x 3 metres square.
For approximate requirements, see 'How much space will they need?', below.
Volume – how loud will they be?
The spine-tingling sound of a live choir will leave a real impression. The volume that they can perform at will differ depending on the number of singers, whether they're performing a cappella or with instrumental accompaniment, and also the acoustics of the room in which they're singing. The typical volume range of a group of gospel singers is around 80 db – 110 dB (decibels).
How much do they cost?
As with most ensembles, choirs vary in price, depending on line-up and the options each choir offers.
The average price of a 5-piece gospel group is around £1,000.
This table outlines the various price ranges for different types of choir:
|Type of Artist
|Cost Range
|4-piece choir
|£800 – £1,000
|5-piece choir
|£1,000 – £1,200
|8-piece choir
|£1,600 – £2,000
Booking local gospel singers is one way you may be able to minimise costs, as their travel expenses will be less than a choir that live far away – the profile page for each artist shows their home town location.
How long will they play for?
Most will offer one 45-minute or two 30-minute performances, or the option to perform during a certain part of your event, such as during a wedding ceremony or drinks reception. They will usually take a break of about 30 minutes in-between sets. You can choose the offering that will fit most closely with what you will need at your event.
How much space will they need?
Like any artists, gospel singers will need room to move around to the music as they perform, in full view. The impact of their style and numbers can be a wonderful visual attraction too, so you'll want your guests to be able to see them clearly.
Usually performing with the accompaniment of a digital piano, the line-up you choose, the number of singers and the type of instruments, will all impact on the amount of space they need. This table gives an idea of the approximate space needed:
|Size of choir
|Performance Space Required
|Solo singer
|2 × 2 metres
|Duo artists
|3 × 2 metres
|3 singers with digital piano
|3 × 3 metres
|4 singers with digital piano
|4 × 3 metres
|5 and 6 singers with digital piano
|5 × 3 metres
|7-piece choir and bigger
|5/6 × 4 metres
How long will it take them to set up?
In terms of setup, choirs are a fairly time-efficient entertainment option. It usually takes about 30 minutes to unload, set up, warm up their voices and perform a sound check if they're using sound equipment or if they're accompanied by a piano, for example. This will depend on how close to the venue they can park, particularly in relation to the performance area. Some busy city hotels require singers and musicians to load in via a supplier's entrance, using an elevator which is shared with hotel staff and trades, which can impact the choir's set up time.
Once they've completed their musical quest for you, it takes roughly 20 minutes to pack down, load out, and clear the venue.
What equipment will they need?
To energise your event with all-encompassing, effortless style, our choirs will welcome:
- a dedicated, suitably-sized, safe, dry, flat performance area or stage. Large choirs may need a 2-tiered stage, so that the back row of singers can be seen.
- if they've agreed to perform outdoors for you, your singers must have complete cover from the elements
- good lighting to read music and lyrics, especially if they're performing in a marquee or dimly-lit venue, for example
- a minimum of four 13 amp power sockets, depending on the choir's line-up and use of electronic sound systems
- refreshments – in some instances, your choir will need soft drinks and food, depending on the length of time they're performing for
- parking provision with good venue access
- a secure, lockable changing room
- sturdy, armless chairs for any acoustic musicians
Most choirs can provide their own PA sound equipment.

"This new bearing system reduces energy consumption by up to 10 percent."
Located in Belgium, Argex mines around 1,000 tonnes of clay every day for a production capacity of 500,000 cubic metres of expanded clay granules every year. Used primarily as a building material in a range of applications, the granules are baked in a 76 metres long, two-part rotary kiln. The largest kiln of its type in Europe, it turns continuously, day and night, processing around 50 tonnes of granules every hour. The kiln is heated using lignite and runs for two to three months at a time before being stopped for a maintenance interval of two to four weeks.
The challengeThe rotary kiln is supported by eight support roller units, each containing two bearings. Historically, these were equipped with bushings or sliding bearings, but a better solution was needed. "The main reason for this is the safety issue stemming from the unreliability of the sliding bearings," explains Johny Bultheel, Plant Manager at Argex. "When we restart the kiln after replacing the support roller, the bearings have to be aligned absolutely perfectly. If this isn't done accurately, the lubrication doesn't function correctly; they can heat up the lubricant and ignite."
The Argex plant has seen two roller fires in recent history due to misalignment in the bushings. Sometimes this overheating happens immediately, other times it can take a week before the problem is detected. In any case, production must be shut down to make the necessary adjustments. Adding to the problem, the skills needed to adjust the older sliding bearings are being lost as the workforce is renewed over time.
The solutionArgex knew that something had to be done and decided to replace the support roller units, beginning with a first set of two. SKF was asked to come up with a simpler, more reliable solution. The project began in 2008 under the supervision of George Cant from the maintenance department. The study took some time as SKF was asked to supply not just the bearings, but also the support roller and shaft, housings and base plates, with exactly the same overall dimensions as the previous solution, to facilitate and minimize the cost of the installation. The new support roller units, each weighing some 23 tonnes and equipped with an automated SKF lubrication system, were installed in August 2010.
Customer value"What we wanted from SKF was a simpler, more reliable solution," says Bultheel. "Another driver for converting to roller bearings is energy consumption. We were looking for a more modern solution with a better lubrication system and thus lower friction that could help reduce costs. This new bearing system reduces energy consumption by up to 10 per cent. Everything went smoothly, and the bearings have worked perfectly."
Argex is currently looking to replace the second set of support roller units on its rotary kiln.
Argex challenged us. Now it's your turn.
Take a closer look at the results of our customers working together with SKF Solution Factory.
"By improving performance and efficiency, we've reduced costs by more than SEK 5,3 million."
A series of proven solutions from SKF Solution Factory such as a complete maintenance strategy and condition monitoring resulted in increased machine uptime and energy savings.
"This new bearing system reduces energy consumption by up to 10 percent."
Working together with SKF, Argex has improved the reliability of its rotary kiln for enhanced safety, while significantly reducing energy consumption and costs.
"Now the aim is to maintain at our leisure."
SKF encouraged Allied Mills engineers to sit down as a team to discuss maintenance for its 5,000 assets and to view this process as an integral, value-added part of the business.

Is my timing great, or what?
These snowflakes are soooo easy to decorate. If you can make a straight line and sprinkle sprinkles, you're golden. All you need is a plastic piping bag (you can get one from your bakery at the grocery store) and clear sprinkles... or white, or whatever you can find.
Here is my recipe for the sugar cookies and icing, and here is the step-by-step for decorating these snowflakes :
1) Bake the cookies
2) Put a layer of white icing all over the cookie.
3) Let it dry and harden for 1+ hours.
Here is the first layer, dried.
Here is the design I made one most of the cookies. If you have trouble with straight lines, then you can do dots, which look really cute, too.
Pour sprinkles over...
Shake off.

The controversy around Nestle's Maggi noodles has caused panic throughout the nation and it doesn't look like it will die down any time soon.
After the initial test results by Uttar Pradesh Department of Food and Drug Administration (FDA) showed harmful levels of monosodium glutamate (MSG) and lead in Maggi, various states across India and even Bangladesh conducted tests on Maggi to find out whether the food product is safe or not.
The controversy around Maggi has led to tests being conducted across the country.
The entire controversy began when the UP FDA last month asked Nestle India to withdraw a batch of Maggi noodles "which were manufactured in February 2014" after it found high levels of added MSG, a taste enhancer, in the noodles and lead beyond permissible limits.

Liberty University has reached an agreement to acquire a full-power television station licensed to nearby Danville, Va. Dubbed the New WTLU24, the station will take Liberty's programming to the next level and begin producing original content — news, talk, sports, and weather — to run 24 hours a day.
"Putting a full-power TV station on the air that covers this entire Roanoke/Lynchburg/Danville market is a natural extension of our Liberty brand," said Dr. Norman Mintle, dean of Liberty's School of Communication & Creative Arts. "This 24/7 broadcast facility will provide a unique and much needed informational service to the citizens of our area, as well as one of the greatest real-world laboratories for our students. From graphic designers to on-air reporters, from producers to directors, and from behind-the-camera crew to advertising and public relations specialists, we expect the New WTLU24 to bless everyone involved."
The station reaches approximately 440,000 households. Its Central Virginia footprint includes Lynchburg, Roanoke, Bedford, and Forest to the north, and stretches south into parts of North Carolina. It is designated by the Federal Communications Commission as a "must carry," meaning that every cable and satellite outlet must provide it to every home in the market. Because of its proximity to Liberty, the FCC has allowed the station to be run remotely from campus.
The station will be staffed by industry professionals who will work alongside students to create programming.
"We are bringing in world-class professional talent to work with our students and create the best product we can possibly put out," Mintle said. "Our programming format will follow the model of a station in the Tampa market, Bay News9. They built what is now the powerhouse station there slowly and carefully. We'll grow into a major broadcaster in our market. Eventually, we'll add appropriate original programs that fit the news/weather/sports/talk concept, promoting the great variety of expertise we have on our campus."
The closing date of the purchase is pending confirmation of antenna locations.
Liberty has an existing low-power TV station, WTLU, The Liberty Channel, which is available on Lynchburg, Va.-area cable packages with Comcast (Channel 10) and Shentel (Channel 12). It is available digitally on Channels 43.1 and 43.2 and can be viewed nationally through Sky Angel IPTV (Channel 132). There is also a live Web stream at www.LibertyChannel.com and on the Liberty Today mobile app, a free download for iPhone, Android, and Blackberry devices as well as iPad, Kindle, and other leading tablet brands. The Liberty Channel features family-friendly programming, concerts, and church services, and airs Liberty Flames Sports Network broadcasts and other campus programs such as Convocation.

Millers march continues
Rotherham's promotion aspirations were given another lift as they recorded a narrow 1-0 victory over local rivals Chesterfield.
The hosts totally dominated the first half but could not get the breakthrough they deserved.
Daniel Nardiello smacked a shot against the post after four minutes and, moments later, the same player just failed to reach a great cross from Alex Revell to turn the ball into the net
The visitors survived a strong penalty appeal when Neal Trotman appeared to handle before Tommy Lee produced two great saves to keep Rotherham out, the first from David Noble and the second from Nardiello.
The Spireites' only two chances both fell to Marc Richards with Andy Warrington saving smartly before the striker fired wide after he was picked out by Liam Cooper's free-kick.
Rotherham should have taken the lead in the first minute of the second half when Lee Frecklington sent Revell clear, but he pulled his shot wide of the target. And minutes later Nardiello headed just over the bar.
The breakthrough finally came after 57 minutes from skipper Johnny Mullins. He rose above everyone in a crowded goalmouth to head home Noble's corner.

Apologies for my lack of bloginating, but I was enjoying spring break with my kids in beautiful Steamboat Springs. This is the snowman that my kids and their friends made when it snowed the night before we left. Actually, this is the second version of the snowman because some jerk knocked him over, and the kids fixed him before we left.
I made it back with my knee ligaments in the same configuration as they were before I left. Victory. Perhaps I'd enjoy skiing more if I didn't think about my knee ligaments as I was coming down the mountain but maybe that comes from writing about football too much. As they say, athletic performance is difficult if you are worried about injuries. /end digression.
Here are various thoughts after the first week of NFL free agency:
Mario. I am not gnashing teeth over the loss of Mario Williams to the Bills. The same reason it made sense to draft for an athletic guy at a premium NFL position of pass rusher is the same reason why it was likely going to be impossible to keep him. I never thought he was going to be able to stay given how many teams had tons of cap room.
Would I like to have kept Mario Williams for the Texans?
Sure! I'd like a pony* and millions of dollars too but that ain't going to happen either.
Offensive Line. I was pretty certain that the Texans were going to keep Chris Myers. He said he wanted to stay. His NFL value to any team was highest to the Texans given his skill sets, understanding of the offense, importance of center to an offensive line, relationship with Matt Schaub. I was surprised about the Eric Winston cut though some outsiders looking at the roster had targeted him for cuts based on salary relative to other players on the roster.
Coaching. Though there is a hard cap as it relates to player salaries, there isn't a cap as it relates to coaches. It takes time to put together a perfect staff because under most circumstances teams don't have to release coaches under contract. If it is hard to keep quality players when your team finds success, then coaching and scheme becomes even more important. I think the Texans are in a good spot currently as it relates to coaching because on all sides of the ball, they have experienced coaches with specific, common, proven philosophies.
Though offensive coordinator Rick Dennison doesn't get as much publicity as a more well-known defensive coordinator Wade Phillips, Dennison will have a key role in getting this newly configured offensive line working well for next year.
It has been asked why more teams don't run predominantly zone blocking schemes like the old school Bronco ones. If it results in huge passing and rushing yards, along with not having to draft the strongest and the biggest guys, why don't most teams do it? And I think the answer is that it is hard to develop continuity in the free agent NFL, along with it being hard to precisely coach and learn. Fortunately, the Texans have both Rick Dennison (who was with Denver for much of the during and post-Alex Gibbs plug and play running game) and John Benton who the offensive linemen attribute much of their success. If you were having to replace guys on the offensive line, these are coaches I would want to be able to do that.
I would have liked the entire line to come back intact, but if they weren't, I think the best case scenario was keeping the center, even if you had to pay a bit of a premium and robbing the right tackle money to pay the center.
It's worth a read to check out what Rivers McCown has to say about the Winston release over at the Battle Red Blog. The thing that is most concerning about the loss of Winston is the number of consecutive games he played. Durability is worth a premium in the NFL. Slightly older teams aren't necessarily the most injured teams because if you can be in the league for multiple years without game exiting injuries, you tend to stick on rosters. (This is what Bill Barnwell in the New York Times refers to as "The Survivor Effect.")
Also, just because the Texans have good offensive line coaching, doesn't mean this offensive line transition is going to be easy. Left tackle Duane Brown is going to want to be paid next year, but as you may recall, his rookie year was an adventure, and he needed to split time at the position.
The undercurrent of all this nervousness is the health of Matt Schaub. Hurt on a fluke last year that had nothing to do with the line. As much as I appreciate TJ Yates' efforts last year, I don't want a repeat of injured Matt Schaub. A reconstituted offensive line clearly makes fans nervous and should. We don't know what this new line's toughness and durability will be as a unit. In addition, I would like to bubble wrap all the skill positions of the Texans, but all team fan bases have similar fears. Violent game and all.
Ha ha Titans. According to various folks, the Titans were going to target Mario Williams but when meddling Bud Adams decided to go all in for Peyton Manning, that didn't happen. Given the whole Bud Adams creep factor thing, I'm not sure that offering a lifetime contract to Manning was a plus.
Actually, from a NFL smarts perspective, it is probably a good thing that the Titans aren't devoting as much salary as would be needed to get either Williams or Manning. In a hard cap world, you don't want to devote top bucks to any one position. In addition, its awkward to give so much power to a player like Manning in a town where he is worshiped–with that sort of situation, it is odd when a player has more power than the coaching staff. Even so, I would have hated for either one of those players to go to the Titans given their relative histories with the Texans and that twice a year thing. In sum, as a general rule, whatever Bud Adams wants, I would like the opposite to happen.
Draft Talk. So now that you've seen who the exiting players are, what does that mean for what positions the Texans target in the draft? Interestingly, given some of the crazy numbers in free agency and the new CBA meaning rookie salaries are not as high, draft picks have become more valuable. With the pre-free agency roster, fans were talking about trade ups and for sure going for wide receiver in the first round. I'm guessing some of that talk goes away. For what the Texans need in the draft, I think a lot of the value may be in the second, third rounds.
I don't feel strongly about that position, so I welcome points of views for and against.
Dream Team. If free agency is freaking you out, think of last year's free agency winners, the Eagles. You get no trophy for the offseason but you do get a t-shirt:
Nonsense I Don't Want to Talk About. Sometimes people ask me about stuff I don't want to talk about because I think they are nonsense. Often I try to ignore the nonsense because maybe it makes it go away. Sometimes commenters/twitter people keep bringing things up so I capitulate to the potstir. Apologies for the following:
Manning Watch. Peyton Manning to the Texans wasn't going to happen. And you know my view on that. To think that he would take some sort of ginormous discount to play for the Texans was silly, and if teams chase things that are not realistic, you can end up with a worse situation than you started out with. Additional apology for adding more words to this because too many words have already been used.
Mario Silliness. As for people who were perturbed at Mario Williams' statements about "overcoming adversity" and somehow meaning something bad about Houston. I'm not certain what Williams was referring to but I don't know why a Texan fan would take that badly. During his time with the Texans, Williams dealt with disappointing injuries, no playoffs, and instant criticism before he took his first snap. When he first went to college, his sister who was pregnant with her second child lost her husband due to a humvee accident during Operation Iraqi Freedom. For a bit, he contemplated quitting school to try to help her support her children.
Not saying that you need to pull out your tiny violin for that but Mario Williams' career hasn't been all picnics, and I'm not sure why anyone would be bent for him to acknowledge that.
I wish Mario nothing but good things in his new situation other than when he's facing the Texans. If someone wants to give a bleep ton of money to somebody for his particular skills, and it isn't my money, I will say hurray capitalism, congratulations, go America and whatnot.
*Note: I do not actually want a pony. I would take millions of dollars however. "Wanting a pony" has become synonymous with wanting things that are impracticable and unrealistic. But no, I affirmatively do not want a pony.

A fossil of a small tyrannosaur that lived 70 million years ago was recently discovered in northern Alaska. The pygmy dinosaur, called Nanuqsaurus hoglundi (which means "polar bear lizard"), is believed to be a close relative of Tyrannosaurus Rex.
N. hoglundi was much smaller than the T. Rex. Its skull measures 25 inches as compared to the T. Rex's 60-inch skull. Researchers have postulated that the pygmy tyrannosaur's smaller stature was an adaptation to the cooler Arctic climate. Although the Arctic would have been much warmer in the Cretaceous Period than it is today, bouts of cold temperatures would have caused variations in the food supply.
Below is an illustration of the relative size of N. hoglundi (A) as compared to its larger cousin T. Rex (B and C). Although N. hoglundi was only about half the size of the T. Rex, it still was an impressive 23 feet from head to tail.

Trailer FrenzyA special place to find the newest trailers for movies and TV shows you're craving.
Everyone is mad about witches these days, what with the popularity of American Horror Story: Coven, and the recent announcement of another witchy series. But this is our first look at the long-awaited WGN series Salem.
The hour-long drama is set during the famous witch trials in 17th Century Massachusetts and is penned by Brannon Braga (Star Trek: TNG and 24) and Adam Simon. Headed to the small screen in the spring of 2014, here is our very first look at what this series could bring.

This is on Facebook also, looks like vandalism but we need to verify with the Parks to ensure they didn't do it.
I agree with Dick's comment on the FB post that this is the worst kind of vandalism. Making the entire disc golf community suffer because your game sucks is totally reprehensible.

People game naked. People game in their underwear. People game in robes and bath towels.
But very few people film their bodies in various states of undress as they rave on and on about video games. That is, unless they're trying to sell something.
Recently, a clip of a Taiwanese gamer wearing nothing but a towel has gone viral in China. The game is called DarkBlood, and the young lady, whose name is Bibbo, is supposedly a big fan.
She's such a big fan, DarkBlood's game company say, that she's been making a series of clips in which she talks about how great DarkBlood is. In the above clip, Bibbo's face is not visible, and she repeatedly drops her towel. Yet, there's one thing the camera does not miss: DarkBlood running on her computer. The game's company claims no connection whatsoever to these towel dropping antics.
Many Chinese gamers don't buy it, calling out Bibbo and her clips for what they most likely are: blatant publicity stunts. And if they are, mission accomplished.

Check out what it's like while the models get ready for the runway and hear what Isaac had to say about his latest collection — and find out about what helps him get through the week!
On the last day of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, Sept. 16, we got to catch up with designer Isaac Mizrahi who told us all about his spring/summer 2011 collection! The designer says he doesn't although he doesn't have any rituals, he does rely on junk food to get him through the process!
"I always eat pizza or chocolate and think oh you're so stressed out you have to do that," he said while backstage before the show!
After talking to the designer, we wandered around and watched a model prep for the show — while three different people worked on her! Check out what it's like backstage and see what the designer had to say.

Even though social media is a critical marketing tool, marketing guru Marcus Guiliano told a crowd of business owners at the Javits Center for the International Restaurant & Foodservice Show of New York last week that a companys website is still the most important place online to convey information about your company. Here are some elements Guiliano discussed that he thinks should be on almost every effective website, ideally on the homepage.
From left to right:
Steven Picker, Executive Director, Food and Beverage Industry Partnership, NYC Dept. of Small Business Services

The New York State Restaurant Association hosted a panel yesterday at the International Restaurant & Foodservice Show of New York to discuss how restaurants, particularly
A majority of small business owners do not pay themselves for multiple consecutive months in order to control their business cash flow, according to a recent survey of 500 small business owners, conducted by Kabbage.
More specifically, 26 percent of those surveyed have gone two to six months without paying themselves, while another 25 percent have gone more than six months without pay.
Having owned multiple small businesses before founding Kabbage, I am intimately
The world's most public job interview aired on The Profit in the form of a family-owned BBQ restaurant in Lexington, Kentucky. Lyles BBQ, owned by the Lyles family, was a business that was basically doing alright, aside from a few quirks and a misfiring 2nd location in a mall food court.
At times, it's a wonder why the family even needs someone like Marcus Lemonis to come in and make improvements, but the husband/wife team's son, Chandler Lyles, is clearly driving the charge forward.
Updated 02-24-2019 at 11:44 PM by The Profit Review
Marcus Lemonis' experience working with Queens-based Artistic Stitch in Season 2 was so awful that he actually considered quitting the show. Lemonis revealed this in a behind-the-scenes episode that aired earlier this week that revisited the 2014 episode.
"People are liars," he said of why being in the business can be so difficult. Ultimately, he calmed down and reminded himself that there are good people out there.
The episode can be summed up as such:
