The original Midnight Express had its origins in 1981 when Condrey, Norvel Austin and Randy Rose formed a stable under that name in the Alabama-Tennessee territory.
Several wrestlers rotated in and out of the group.
The team took real shape in 1983 when Condrey, a skilled tag-team specialist, joined forces with the younger Bobby Eaton, a steady hand still in high school playing linebacker and fullback for his football team when he stepped into the ring for his first professional match.
By 1983, though, the 24-year-old Eaton had already logged seven years as a pro and was an established worker.
A touch of magic was created when Jim Cornette, a young ringside photographer-turned-manager, was enlisted as the team's mouthpiece.
"When we first got together, obviously I was brand new," says Cornette. "I could talk, but a lot of times I didn't know whether I was saying the right thing or not. Dennis, who had been on top longer than any of us, taught us first about some psychology and how things worked and why things would go a certain way."
Cornette, meanwhile, came up with names for their finishers.
"Because I was either a child prodigy or idiot savant, they let me tell them moves because I was the 'move inventor' and the 'move namer.' I had a thing for words and a thing for names because I used to watch all the wrestling tapes and I watched them."
"Dennis had the psychology, and he was kind of our mentor," says Cornette. "Bobby was the workhorse. As soon as he got in the ring the place blew because everything was action. And I could (tick) them off because of whatever I said."
The Midnights, with Cornette at the helm, set Watts' Mid-South territory on fire in 1984. They were leading villains when the promotion, which ran shows in Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi, broke one gate record after another.
"That was one heck of a year," recalls Eaton. "They gave us a big push, and man, we were fighting every night. I got beat up (by fans) six or seven times down there."
"Watts had flown us down from Nashville to do a couple of his TV tapings before we actually started in the territory in November of '83," says Cornette.
Looking back, Cornette says he had no idea that The Midnight Express would become as successful as they did.
He recalls Watts coming to Memphis in late 1983 to see a show at the Mid-South Coliseum in Memphis.
"I was Jimmy Hart's second banana. I was lucky if I was on the Memphis card. Usually I was at the spot show instead of the big town because they were running two towns a night a lot. But I never even spoke to Watts because I was young and wasn't going to walk up to him.
"It wasn't like now when everybody, including the ring announcer, comes in and finds everybody — up to the owner of the company — and has to shake their hand. You minded your own business back then. You walked to the locker room and shook everybody's hand, but if Bill Watts and Jerry Jarrett were in the corner talking, you didn't walk up to them."
For some reason that night, he says, Jarrett had Cornette in three different key matches, including being a part of the finish in all of them.
Little did Cornette know at the time, but he was auditioning for Watts.
A few days later at a spot show in Tennessee, Condrey told Cornette that he needed to talk to him.
"He called me out in the hallway. I didn't have an idea about what he wanted. I thought I might have had heat."
"Bill Watts wants us to come work his territory," Condrey told Cornette.
"There was no 'us' at that time," notes Cornette. "Bobby was a babyface, Dennis was a heel and I was helping Jimmy Hart manage all of his heels."
Cornette thought Condrey was ribbing him.
"I told Dennis that I had never even spoken to Watts."
Condrey said Watts had asked him it that kid (Cornette) could talk, and Condrey told him he could "talk his (behind) off."
"He told us we were going to make between 150 and 200 thousand dollars. I said, 'Each?' At the time I was averaging 290 bucks a week. Dennis said he was flying us down to TV the next week. And son-of-a-gun, it was basically you'd make 50 grand if business didn't go anywhere, and if you made 100 grand, that meant it was a record year. We made 90-something grand because it was a record year."
Watts saw big money in Cornette and The Express, and they delivered.
Watts even amped up the trio's blazing heat. At a match at the New Orleans Superdome, Watts and The Junkyard Dog ripped Cornette's clothes off, dressed him in a diaper and fed him a baby bottle.
"He got juice on Bobby and Dennis, beat both of them in convincing fashion, stripped me down, put me in a dress or a diaper, and we're still fighting fans on the way back," recalls Cornette.
"That kept us another eight months," laughs Cornette, who lost his hair twice in one week as a result of stipulation matches.
New Midnight Express
Jim Crockett saw the business Cornette and The Midnights were drawing for Watts.
He wanted them for the Carolinas.
"Once we were in Louisiana, Flair would come in and tell us that we had to come to Charlotte," recalls Cornette. "Once we got to Charlotte and saw what they wanted to do and the size of the buildings, along with the national TV, it got me thinking. This might not be a flash in the pan."
Jim Crockett Promotions signed the trio in the summer of 1985.
Just as the team was peaking. though, Condrey disappeared without a trace after a match in 1987.
With Stan Lane's longtime partner Steve Keirn looking at retirement, the former Fabulous Ones star appeared to be an ideal choice.
"We (The Fabs) were the first tag team to use videos to promote ourselves. We were more like rock stars. It was a great period for us," says Lane, whose reputation as an ultimate "party guy" translated well to his new role as a member of a team built around two wrestlers with blond hair, well-developed bodies and youthful good looks, but with ring ability as well.
The new MX version of "Sweet" Stan Lane and "Beautiful" Bobby Eaton, behind one of the greatest managers in the business, held the NWA tag-team belts on several occasions and was named tag team of the year in 1987-88. Lane possessed more speed, was flashier and had far greater charisma than his predecessor.
"Stan brought a better look," says Cornette. "There was more cosmetics for the TV era. Dennis was great in the ring, but Stan could hold his own. Bobby was the glue, and I was still talking."
The business had changed, though, to where it was no longer as much about how much heat Cornette and The Express could get.
"We went from the guys being expected to draw the house at Mid-South or even on top in the NWA in '86, to the guys who were expected to be the perennial tag-team champions or challengers, and have the good match. It was the competition. Who's going to have the best match? Midnight Express or Ric Flair? And if we came in second, we came in second to Ric Flair. There's nothing bad about that. And every once in a while, we'd push him a little bit. But as long as everybody was behind us, we still felt like we were succeeding."
Their matches with The Rock 'N' Roll Express, The Fantastics, The Original Midnight Express (Condrey and Randy Rose), The Road Warriors, Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard, and Barry Windham and Ron Garvin were among the best area fans had ever seen. The two were innovative, and created maneuvers like the Rocket Launcher, Alabama Jam and the Veg-O-Matic.
Contract problems in 1989, however, resulted in the NWA front office trying to break up the trio, feeling the act had outlived its shelf life. But the group refused to be intimidated, quitting once to show unity and threatening to do the same when management wanted to split the trio up again.
Cornette says they never took themselves too seriously.
"We lost way more matches than we ever won. We didn't have a problem with doing jobs. We knew that if we went out and were allowed to do what we could do, we could get the team over, we could get ourselves over and we could probably sell some tickets. The only problems we ever had with management were not our schedule and not our money, but when we were not allowed to go out and do that. We couldn't get anybody over and ourselves over or sell tickets in the position we were being put in just because they didn't understand what was going on."
It all came to a head, he says, when some of the higher-ups in the company questioned why Cornette and The Midnights were making top-level pay.
"What doomed us was The Road Warriors, Midnights, Flair, Luger and Sting were the highest-paid guys in the company when Turner bought it. And they could figure Flair and figure The Road Warriors and even Sting and Luger because ... look at them. But then they looked at the three of us and went, wait a minute, why are we paying them all that money?"
To Cornette, and many others in the company, the answer was simple.
"Well, because we actually drew more money than the rest of them put together except for Ric," he says. "It galled me to no end when we had drawn the all-time record gate in the state of Virginia in September of '88 against Tully and Arn, with Flair and Luger in the double main event. Two months later they buy the company and wonder who was this tag team that was hanging around?"
"George Scott came in as booker and said, 'I just don't know what I'm going to do with you boys,'" recounts Cornette.
"Well, we'll relieve you of that burden, and we'll just give our notice," replied Cornette.
"The only reason we did leave is because they fired him (Scott) before we finished up. But we had already promised Dundee we'd work in Continental, and we were looking for a couple months off. So Jim Ross, on behalf of the new booking team, made the deal that we could take our two months off and come back in the summer for the world tag-team tournament, and we'd pick up where we left off."
That's exactly what they did, says Cornette, "except we left off without Herd and we picked up with Herd. So it wasn't exactly the same place."
The group returned and stayed another year-and-a-half.
"We couldn't wait until our contracts came up. We knew there was no way in the world they were going to re-sign us. They would have re-signed me, but they didn't want to re-sign Bobby and Stan, and I wasn't going to stay without them."
They were in Norfolk, Va., with two weeks left on their contract when Wahoo McDaniel, an agent at that time, informed Cornette about a meeting the committee had held.
"It was everybody but (WCW boss) Jim Herd ... it was Wahoo, it was Jim Ross, probably Jody Hamilton, Terry Funk, whoever that was around. They all said that they had to re-sign The Midnight Express."
Herd was outvoted.
"Me and Stan both threw our bags down at the same time. We were leaving on the theory that they weren't going to offer us anything anyway. But now they offered us all six figures each. We had been ready to go."
Two weeks later in Indianapolis, Cornette had a fateful encounter with Herd.
"I hadn't seen Herd since Wahoo gave us that information. Herd had a manila envelope in his hand. He walked down the hallway, and I'm looking at him. He walks up to me, sticks it out and hands it to me. His first words were, 'You know I was against this. Here's your contracts.'"
Cornette, who had quit the booking committee two months earlier, replied: "You know, I was, too."
Cornette explains how he left the committee.
Returning 10 days later from a wedding vacation in Hawaii, Cornette was approached by Ross in Canton, Ohio.
Herd, Cornette was informed, had "ixnayed" the deal.
Ross asked Cornette to attend a booking meeting two days later to plead his case.
Cornette had other ideas.
"No ... how about this instead? How about you tell Jim Herd to take his booking committee and shove it up his (behind). If I come to that meeting, it will be for the express purpose of crawling across the table and sticking these two fingers, two knuckles deep, in his eye socket."
"That's how I quit the booking committee," he says. "When I think about it now, I can't believe I didn't have a heart attack when I was 30."
Cornette says the company brass tried its best to break up the team.
"They had actually pried us apart. I would do color commentary and the hotline, and the boys would join Ric and Arn as The Horsemen with Woman. That way they'd have spots, and we'd break up. I'd sell the contract to her. And that way we'd all stay here and get back together at some point."
Cornette's fiery temper continued to clash with WCW's front office, and he left the company for good in 1990 after a series of disagreements, culminating with a falling out with Herd.
Cornette took Lane with him, but Eaton decided to stay.
For the first team in a decade, there was no Midnight Express.
"We never even fought with Herd about the money. We just fought with him about the fact that he was wiping his feet on us when we could still outperform everybody else on the roster. It didn't make sense," says Cornette.
Lane helped Cornette start the Tennessee-based Smoky Mountain Wrestling promotion in the early '90s and formed yet another top team with Dr. Tom Prichard as The Heavenly Bodies. Lane left the company after two years.
"It was so darn dangerous," says Lane. "Cornette was hot-shoting the territory in towns like Harlan and Pineville, Ky. I wasn't going to get stabbed up there."
Cornette, booker and creative genius behind the old-style territorial promotion, kept Smoky Mountain afloat on a shoestring budget. But, like other regional promotions that existed a decade before Smoky Mountain Wrestling, it eventually fell victim to the changing times and the much deeper pockets of the major national wrestling companies.
Cornette helped revive the careers of many older stars and knew what the people wanted to see. In the end, though, it wasn't enough.
Cornette, 51, who has been on a self-imposed hiatus since leaving his job at Ring of Honor last year, says he's feeling better than he has in a long time.
"I haven't yelled, screamed and cussed at anybody since November ... except, well, my wife, but we're married," he jokes in rapid-fire fashion.
Stepping aside from the pro wrestling pressure cooker for the first time in years, Cornette has used the time off to recharge his batteries and implement a healthy eating regimen.
"I went on a diet and went from 248 pounds to 211. I celebrated the (Louisville) Cards winning the (NCAA basketball) tournament a few weeks ago, so I'm back around 215. But I'm shooting for 200 by the middle of summer."
The man who once proclaimed he was always "as busy as a one-legged man in a butt-kicking contest" now actually finds free time.
He's spent much of that time combing through his vast wrestling and comic book collection, and has been attending numerous comic book and horror show conventions with wife Stacey.
The stress of the wrestling business, he admits, had taken its toll.
"I love wrestling, but I don't love whatever the (heck) wrestling has become now. Everybody in the business, especially from my generation, is either dead, crippled, broke, in bad health, in rehab or regularly making a (fool) out of himself."
Cornette didn't want a spot on that dubious list.
"I was obsessed with that company (Ring of Honor) for three years, doing a 13-hour-a-day producing television. In three years — between November 2009 and November 2012 — I was on the road, in a hotel room, over 300 nights and put almost 150,000 miles on my vehicle. It never turned off and it never stopped because there was always something, whether it was creative or whether it was administrative or whatever it was."
And then, he says, the light turned on.
"I had an epiphany. I would rather be home looking out my office window at my beautiful dogwood trees and doing some (stuff) that I enjoy, instead of having a heart attack somewhere in Belle Vernon, Pa., at an ice rink."
Three hectic years in TNA had preceded his ROH stint.
"The combination of Jerry (Lawler) and Brad (Armstrong) and everybody else's mortality rate, along with my father and family history, and the stress level of this job, and the travel, and the hotels and the bad diet, I asked myself just what was I doing? It got to the point that as much as I wanted this thing to succeed, not only was I not enjoying it, I was dreading having to put (stuff) together.
"I didn't have the passion and enthusiasm I had always demanded of everyone else. I was always the first one in the building and the last one of the talent to leave. I was starting to dread it. I was either going to jail or the hospital."
There was a never in time in Cornette's life when he hasn't been involved in the wrestling business — as a fan, writer, photographer, manager, booker, promoter or producer. But he's also had another passion, and that's collecting comic books and horror movie memorabilia.
He boasts a collection of 10,000 comic books, 4,000 wrestling tapes and thousands of wrestling magazines and programs.
"From the time I was 5 years old, I collected comic books. When I got into wrestling and I turned 17 or 18 years old, there wasn't enough time, but I still kept everything. I have 10,000 Silver Age comic books — all bagged and boarded and catalogued. Basically every Marvel and DC from the Super Hero Silver Age era is sitting in my vault."
He's been doing well peddling some of his considerable wares at various specialty shows. At a recent event in Lexington, Ky., he discovered that Felix Silla (Cousin Itt on television's "The Addams Family") was a wrestling fan.
"He turned out to be a Midnight Express fan. He got one of my books."
"It's cool and you meet cool people," says Cornette. "I'm now a celebrity dealer. I'm not going as Jim Cornette the wrestling guy. I'm going as Jim Cornette Collectibles."
Cornette, however, will forever be linked with The Midnight Express.
"The reason so many people remember those matches is because the buildings were always full and the matches never disappointed. As far as the NWA tag-team wrestling of the '80s — and I know you're talking some heavy hitters there — the first thing people will always say is The Midnight and Rock 'N' Roll Express. We invented things as we went along that people had never seen. It was always different. And it was always good."
Ricky Morton, too, looks back with pride at what was accomplished those many years ago.
"Since then they have built bigger coliseums all over the place. It's something to know that we beat Elvis Presley's record for attendance. Robert and I did that in many, many buildings."
Most of those buildings are gone now, but the memories remain.
"We were rock stars and we didn't really know it."

Trapped inside. Caught up watching torrents of reports, swirls of data charts, floods of facts and gusts of high wind endlessly battering my senses. Till the screen went black. Hurricane Sandy? No. The presidential campaign in the swing states, those providing Electoral College votes needed for victory.
I survived this scenario in one of them, Colorado, whilst visiting there in late September.
I had never experienced something like this before: Four or five consecutive opposing commercials for Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama. In rapid succession, and throughout the day (and evening, I was told), each side contradicted the other in a head-spinning cyclone of blabber.
Wasn't Toyota having a sale-athon? No sale of the year at Macy's? Was the election the only thing up for sale? To end the deluge, I would simply shut off the TV.
The ads went on all during my time in Colorado. Luckily, I spent most of my time outdoors. But I couldn't help wondering if we were electing the president of Colorado or Florida or some other swing state. Oddsmakers and pundits say we will elect the president of Ohio, "the swingingest state with most" electoral votes.
This would be partial democracy in a republic missing some of its parts.
It has been estimated that $3.3 billion will have been spent on TV ads for this presidential election. If the elections of 2004 and 2008 are any indicator, about 98 percent of this money will be spent in about 15 states.
Colorado was among the least predictable races, hence the outflow of money and ads right to the last minutes. In my state, New Jersey, there was hardly any media campaigning at all. Gov. Chris Christie was more likely to campaign for Mr. Romney in swing states than in New Jersey, whose electoral votes were safe for Obama.
But key markets like Charlotte, Milwaukee, Tampa and Cleveland saw last-minute avalanches of ads.
It's time for a change!
Hurricanes come and go, tides ebb and flow, but the Electoral College endures, a bit more battered after each election. In recent decades, there have been many calls for reform or elimination of this body. The outcry was strongest when one candidate won the popular vote, but not the electoral vote (Bush vs. Gore).
The Electoral College, established in the 18th century, is no longer viable in this 21st-century pluralistic democracy. The college is based on a winner-takes-all formula. In part, the college was created to preserve state-based power in a federal republic. However, the American electorate has grown less tolerant of the all-or-nothing-at-all allocation of electoral votes by state. The people want more proportionality in the process.
For example, many voters are effectively disenfranchised in "safe" states. Why, for example, should a Republican get all excited about presidential elections in New York, a forever-Democratic state? What motivates a Democrat in heavily Republican Oklahoma?
In future elections, as many states become more fixed in their red or blue status, why should the lesser party adherents bother to vote at all, in any election, perhaps dealing a fatal blow to a system which already has a terrible voter turnout record?
True, our democracy has withstood many forceful storms in the past. But just as we prepared for Sandy in a different way and in a different world than we might have done for hurricanes 50 years ago, we must adjust our electoral system. Otherwise, we will just be electing a swing-state president every cycle.
Neither of the two plans of electoral reform currently on the menu addresses the fundamental issue of democratic participation in a state-based federal republic.
One is the National Popular Vote plan. Under this scheme, a group of states whose total number of electoral votes equals 270 agree to give all their electoral votes to the candidate who wins the national popular vote. Sounds good, except that a whole passel of states could be left out of the electoral process entirely. The system can be jiggered to favor one party which may dominate the requisite subset of states.
In Pennsylvania, there is a movement afoot to split the state's electoral votes based on winning majorities in congressional districts. Again, sounds good in terms of addressing the popular democracy concerns, but who would have faith in a system in which the areas of these districts in Pennsylvania — and everywhere else — are drawn at the whim of politicians in power?
There is a simpler solution, which balances demands of political democracy with the importance of states in the federal republic. It will also eliminate the swing-state presidency possibility.
Here is what we should consider: Each state should allocate electoral votes on a proportional basis equal to the share of the popular vote each candidate receives in that state. Individual voters in every state are empowered and the rights of states are preserved. A candidate needs 270 electoral votes to win. As a bonus, it is possible to set a threshold at which third-party candidates might receive electoral votes.
Under this proposal, there is no inherent advantage to either political party, any subset of states, and no diminution of the importance of every individual vote. Sometimes the simplest solutions can work best. This one might even be storm-proof.

I love the Mythbusters television show. That has to be one of the coolest jobs in the world…it involves investigation, problem solving, science, trial & error, searching for the truth, robotics and remote controls, and in the end, you usually get to blow stuff up. How great is that?! I know I'll never forget the episode where they blew up a cement truck. That was truly awesome.
Well, perhaps not quite made for TV, but pretty cool nonetheless, Paul Randal (@PaulRandal) has been doing some SQL Server myth busting here in the month of April with his DBA Myth a Day series. It starts with In-Flight Transactions Continue After a Failover. Check it out!

Hi GuysI have just setup a new MM which is connected to a LCD monitor via VGA.Everything seems to work ok. The only issue is when I select power -> Monitor OFF it does not cut the feed to the monitor it just switches to full screen screensaver.I was expecting it to stop sending a signal down the VGA which would cause the monitor to goto sleep!Regards
Hi Andrew.I have added the DPMS device to the MM in question and told the system to use that device as the VideoDev in /etc/pluto/media_config.conf.I dont think the media config is working. The file did not exist on my system so I created it. I have also set the AudioDev to the AppServer device which it says in the media config section of your wiki will allow ALSA to control the audio but that is not working either.This is my media_config.conf so far.Room=2: AudioDev=127; VideoDev=127; KeepScreenOnForOSD=noRoom=7: AudioDev=26; VideoDev=128; KeepScreenOnForOSD=noRegards

The Vanishing Distinction Between Real-time and Historical Location Data
A congressional inquiry, which recently revealed that cell phone carriers disclose a huge amount of subscriber information to the government, has increased the concern that Big Brother tracks our cell phones. The New York Times reported that, in 2011, carriers responded to 1.3 million law enforcement demands for cell phone subscriber information, including text messages and location information. Because each request can acquire information on multiple people, law enforcement agencies have clearly obtained such information about many more of us than could possibly be worthy of suspicion. Representative Markey, who spearheaded the inquiry, has followed up with a thorough letter to Attorney General Holder that asks how the Justice Department could possibly protect privacy and civil liberties while acquiring such a massive amount of information.
Among many important questions, Representative Markey's letter asks whether the DOJ continues to legally differentiate between historical (those produced from carrier records) and real-time (those produced after an order is issued) cell site location information and what legal standard the DOJ meets for each (or both). Traditionally, courts have accorded less protection to historical location data, which I have criticized as a matter of Fourth Amendment law in my amicus briefs and in my scholarship. The government's applications for historical data in the Fifth Circuit case, which is currently considering whether agents seeking historical location data must obtain a warrant, provide additional evidence that the distinction between real-time and historical location data makes no sense.
Some background. Under the current legal rules for location acquisition by law enforcement, which are complex, confusing, and contested, law enforcement agents have generally been permitted to acquire historical location data without establishing probable cause and obtaining a warrant. Instead, they have had to demonstrate that the records are relevant to a law enforcement investigation, which can dramatically widen the scope of an inquiry beyond those actually suspected of criminal activity and yield the large number of disclosures that the recent congressional inquiry revealed. Generally, prospective (real-time) location information has required a higher standard, often a warrant based on probable cause, which has made it more burdensome to acquire and therefore more protected against excessive disclosure.
Some commentators and judges have questioned whether historical location data should be available on an easier to satisfy standard, positing the hypothetical that law enforcement agents could wait just a short amount of time for real-time information to become a record, and then request it under the lower standard. Doing so would clearly be an end run around both the applicable statute (ECPA) and the Fourth Amendment, which arguably accord less protection to historical information because it is stored as an ordinary business record and not because of the fortuity that it is stored for a short period of time.
It turns out that this hypothetical is more than just the product of concerned people's imagination. The three applications in the Fifth Circuit case requested that stored records be created on an ongoing basis. For example, just after a paragraph that requests "historical cell-site information… for the sixty (60) days prior" to the order, one application requests "For the Target Device, after receipt and storage, records of other information… provided to the United States on a continuous basis contemporaneous with" the start or end of a call, or during a call if that information is available. The other two applications clarify that "after receipt and storage" is "intended to ensure that the information" requested "is first captured and recorded by the provider before being sent." In other words, the government is asking the carrier to create stored records and then send them on as soon as they are stored.
To be clear, only one of the three applications applied for only a relevance-based court order to obtain the continuously-created stored data. That court order, used for historical data, has never been deemed sufficient for forward-looking data (as the continuously-created data would surely be as it would be generated after the order). The other two applications used a standard less than probable cause but more than just a relevance order. It is not clear if the request for forward-looking data under the historical standard was an inadvertent mistake or an attempt to mislead. But applications in other cases have much more clearly asked for forward-looking prospective data, and didn't require that data to be momentarily stored. Why would the applications in this case request temporary storage if not at least to encourage the judge considering the application to grant it on a lower standard?
I am optimistic that the DOJ's response to Representative Markey's letter will yield important information about current DOJ practices and will further spur reform. In the meantime, the government's current practice of using this intrusive tool to gather too much information about too many people cries out for formal legal restraint. Congress should enact a law requiring a warrant based on probable cause for all location data. It should not codify a meaningless distinction between historical and real-time data that further confuses judges and encourages manipulative behavior by the government.

The theater shooting happened just ten miles from my house.
My Facebook feeds tells of near misses - almost there but at a different theater or was going to go but didn't or knows someone who . . .
My girlfriend working a local television news room hasn't slept in days.
Another friend's son goes to school with two kids whose mom was killed.
A collegue of my husband's daughter was shot 3 times and lost her hand. Six of her friends were shot.
My eyelids just want to close. Sleep it away. Obviously, I need to turn off the television. I can only take so much.
I don't even know how to deal with this anymore. Like I normally do with stress, I try to work and not think about it.
For this blog, I look at my Google editorial calendar. My notes link to the PS22 Chorus, as a positive in education, maybe write about music education. I click through the links. It's the first time I've heard PS22's music. First, I'll listen. Then, I'll write.
On my screen, I watch these children, listening as their voices soar with emotion. And I'm crying now. The notes grab my sad, the pain I'm trying to ignore from the theater shootings. My soul needs this music. I can't explain, it just feels like hope.
Goosebumps zing up my arms.
There's a lump in my throat.
Today I am writing about the PS22 Chorus except I'm not. I'm just trying to make sense of something that doesn't make sense. I'm trying to go on, not ignoring what happened, but not dwelling in it either.
Maybe that's like music. Why it resonates so deeply through my senses, allowing my soul to feel everything. Maybe it doesn't make sense. Or even need to.
To my neighbors in Colorado, I hope you know that somebody loves you. I do. People around the world do.
To the PS22 Chorus and Mr. Breinberg, thank you for your gift. I hope you know that somebody loves you, too.
Sometimes when words are not enough, the music is.

Energy1 needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 51 designs submitted by 28 freelance designers.
NHV is dedicated to the development and utilization of large scale alternative energy projects (principally wind/solar) and technologies in environmentally and economically challenged regions of the United States.
This logo will need to appeal to an existing market thats comprised of a broad and diverse array of constituencies ranging from prospective investors, project partners, and customers.
It will need to evoke the image that a particular rural region (grasslands then eventually surrounded by rolling hills with trees) is at a "turning point" as it relates to its future prospects due to the development and utilization of a large scale solar array. Designs that have elements of utilizing solar energy in harmony with nature as well as serving as the catalyst for revitalizing the businesses and people that reside in rural environmentally and economically challenged areas is the goal.
The logo design must have the words "Turning Point Solar" incorporated. It is strongly preferred that no other "words" outside of those are displayed anywhere.
The design needs to be mindful this is an American project. We urge large degress of freedom in design but simply ask that the resulting logo look exceptionally professional.

NFL Thursday Games Preview – Week 12, Thanksgiving Day Games
Green Bay Packers at Detroit Lions – 12:30 PM
In a key NFC North game, Detroit (7-3) plays host to the undefeated Packers (10-0). With an NFL-best quarterback rating of 128.8, Aaron Rodgers is the leader of Green Bay's offensive attack, which averages a league-best 35.5 points per game. Rodgers throws to Jordy Nelson when he needs points. Nelson's nine touchdown catches are second in the NFL to Detroit's Calvin Johnson, who has 11. With the fifth-best pass defense and a strong pass rush, the Lions' defense matches up as well as anyone against Green Bay's offensive strength. Detroit must get to Rodgers to slow the Packers down. Detroit's offense averages 30.1 points per game, good for third in the NFL. The Lions' Matthew Stafford and Calvin Johnson will face a Packers defense that allows 391.8 yards per game, third-worst in the league. The Lions need to capitalize on drives when they can.
Miami Dolphins at Dallas Cowboys – 4:15 PM
This battle of teams on three-game winning streaks finds Dallas (6-4) in first place in the NFC East and Miami (3-7) slowly playing its way out of a terrible season. Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo has eight touchdown passes and no interceptions in his last three games. He is 4-0 in Thanksgiving Day starts. Romo faces an effective Dolphins' pass rush and a Miami defense that yields just 18.6 points per game, sixth-best in the league. The Dolphins' offense was very efficient against Buffalo last week, scoring 28 first-half points. Miami has averaged just 19.3 points per game on the season, so expect the production to level off this week. Dallas will look to pressure quarterback Matt Moore and bottle up the suddenly effective running of Reggie Bush.
San Francisco 49ers at Baltimore Ravens – 8:20 PM
Head coaching brothers Jim (San Francisco) and John (Baltimore) Harbaugh oppose each other in an inter-conference battle of division leaders on Thanksgiving night. The 49ers (9-1) allow the league's fewest points (14.5) and rushing yards (73.9) per game. The San Francisco defense, second in the NFL with 15 interceptions, will look to force Baltimore quarterback Joe Flacco into turnovers. He already has 13 this year. The Ravens (7-3) defense isn't far behind the 49ers. Baltimore ranks third in fewest points allowed per game with 17.6. The Ravens must stop San Francisco drives from dominating time of possession and generating points. 49ers kicker David Akers leads the NFL with 102 points and 26 field goals.

Maine man sentenced to 5 years for possession of child pornography
BANGOR, Maine (AP) � A Maine man has been sentenced to five years in prison for possession of child pornography.
Federal prosecutors say 25-year-old Jacob Rogeski of Fort Fairfield was sentenced Friday, after pleading guilty in August.
Court documents say investigators learned than an internet user with an IP address assigned to Rogeski was downloading child pornography. Federal prosecutors say Rogeski admitted that he had searched on a peer-to-peer file sharing program and downloaded images and videos of child pornography.
Prosecutors say a forensic examination of his computer found over 100 video files and 400 image files of child pornography.
The court also ordered the computer equipment used to download, store and view the child pornography to be forfeited.

Northern Pass jobs? Another transparent PR push
Northern Pass $7.5M jobs initiative blasted by foes, lauded by supporters
First, Northern Pass presented its scores of miles of power lines as a job-creation program for the North Country. Look, construction jobs! The good people up north saw right through that, and Northern Pass was left with massive amounts of bad will.
Now the company brass have a new plan for passing off the project as a job generator. If the massive, snaking trail of power lines is approved, the company will give $7.5 million for a fund to finance unspecified job training and creation initiatives. Former state Sen. John Gallus of Berlin called it a "once in a lifetime opportunity."
Actually, the North Country already has two entities designed specifically to accomplish much of what this fund is supposed to do. They are the White Mountains Community College in Berlin and the Littleton Academic Center. Through these institutions, students from all over the North Country can receive job training, even advanced degrees, in many fields of study. And in the last few years the Community College System of New Hampshire has made an aggressive effort to tailor job training to local industries that are growing and hiring.
The Northern Pass fund might add to that effort, but it is hardly a once in a lifetime opportunity. Rather, it is a transparent attempt to buy public support for the controversial project by paying what amounts to a tiny sum to smooth the way for a $1 billion investment.
North Country residents ought not weigh this fund very heavily when measuring whether to support the Northern Pass project. These funds would soon be spent, and the power lines would remain for generations. The real cost-benefit analysis remains unchanged: Does the benefit of all that new power reaching the New England grid (bringing lower prices, presumably) outweigh the cost of the unsightly power lines cutting through New Hampshire towns and forests?

Review: Writers Tears Pot Still Irish Whiskey
Posted by Arctic Wolf on October 9, 2012
Pure Pot Still Irish Whiskey is traditionally made from a mash comprised of both malted and unmalted barley which is distilled in a pot still. This style of whiskey was apparently produced as a reaction to British taxes on malted whiskey which were introduced in 1802. To reduce the taxable amount on their whisky, Irish distillers began to add more unmalted barley into the distillation. The result was what we have come to know as Irish Pure Pot Still Whisky.
Writers Tears Pot Still Irish Whisky contains both Single Malt Whiskey and the aforementioned Pure Pot Still Whiskey in its construction. As is the tradition in Ireland, the whiskey is triple distilled and matured in American Oak (bourbon) barrels. I was sent a bottle of the Writers Tears to review here on my website and asked to coordinate the publication of the review to coincide roughly with the reintroduction of the whiskey to the Ontario market (on October 14) after an absence of about one year from the store shelves.
Here is an excerpt from my review:
"… The initial aroma from the glass has a bit of a bourbon flair complemented by honeyed butterscotch, punky Halloween toffee, oak spices, and obvious taints of vanilla and almond. There is a bit of citrus orange peel in the air and an underlying herbal element which to me has a resemblance to freshly cut lowland hay, willow thickets, and those lush ferns that grow near wetlands… "

Born in Cashton, Wisconsin, Frank O. King began as a professional cartoonist at the Minneapolis Times in 1901. Moving to Chicago, he was first employed by the Chicago American, then by the Examiner, and eventually by the Chicago Tribune in 1910. Among his earliest comic strips were 'Tough Teddy', 'The Boy Animal Trainer', 'Here Comes Motorcycle Mike' and 'Hi Hopper'. In 1915, he made his first successful full-page comic: 'Bobby Make-Believe', followed by his famous 'Gasoline Alley' in 1918.
Gasoline Alley (16 April 1921)
This comic was created to accompany King's cartoon series 'The Rectangle' on the Sunday pages, but it soon became the leading feature. 'Gasoline Alley' was devoted to the country's fascination with automobiles. The characters of the strip aged in "real time" - growing up, getting older and marrying as the years went by. For instance Baby Skeezix was found at Walt Wallet's doorstep in 1921, and throughout the strip's run, went to grade school, fought in World War II, got married, raised a family and is now a grandfather.
Gasoline Alley (30 November 1930)
Before he was 40 years old, the strip had made Frank King a wealthy man. The owner of two estates, in Florida and Illinois, he spent his free time sculpting, collecting old maps and raising amaryllis bulbs. He retired from the Sunday strip in 1951, grooming his assistant Bill Perry to take over. King retired completely in 1959, leaving the daily to Dick Moores, who had assisted him since 1956. 'Gasoline Alley' runs to this very day, as drawn by Jim Scancarelli, and the characters are still aging as time goes by.

Vincent and Gabrielle are married, have stable jobs, a healthy son and a harmonious relationship. Yet, after a series of failed attempts at revitalizing their marital routine, Vincent begins a heated affair with another woman and Gabrielle spins into introspection -- while hiding from Vincent that she knows of his infidelity. Distraught at the state of her marriage, Gabrielle wanders in anguish and is eventually drawn towards a random man whom she spots inside a Virgin Megastore. The handsome stranger glances at her while both listen to the same song. And mysteriously, the two of them share a fleeting but intensely intimate moment in the middle of an anonymous crowd. When he leaves the store, Gabrielle is even more vulnerable than before. Concomitantly, and in comedy crisis mode, George and Nathalie argue loud and violently -- the former suffocating in his wife's feminist demands and the latter feeling trapped in a monogamous relationship. Looking for solace, George buys an expensive Mercedes and turns to his old friends, Vincent and Fred. Although all three men keep each other company, even their weekly soccer games and poker nights do not protect them from mid-life anguish. Fred is still single -- and proudly so. He sleeps with a series of spectacular women and plays the role of liberated straight male for his pals. But while Vincent and George struggle, with no success, to understand Fred's sex appeal, they cannot see that Fred also yearns for a change of pace.

Don Payne, the New Hanover High School graduate who made a career as a screenwriter, has passed away.
Don Payne, the 1982 New Hanover High School graduate who made a career in Hollywood as a screenwriter, died Tuesday in Los Angeles. He was 48.
Payne won four Emmy Awards and received six Writer's Guild Award nominations for his work as writer/producer on "The Simpsons." Payne was also the screenplay writer for "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer," "My Super Ex-Girlfriend" and "Thor," and he wrote drafts for the movies "Thor: The Dark World" and "Maximum Ride," which have yet to be released. Some of his "Simpsons" episodes have yet to air, including this year's Christmas show.
In a statement, "Simpsons" executive producer Al Jean said, "Don was a wonderful writer and an even more wonderful man. He was beloved in the 'Simpsons' community and his untimely passing is terrible news to us all."
John Frink, who formed a writing team with Payne for much of their careers, said that Payne had been battling bone cancer for several years. Payne is survived by his wife, Julie, and three children, Nathaniel, 14; Joshua, 11; and Lila, 5.
Payne didn't grow up in Wilmington, but he spent his high school years here. He and Todd Weeks met the summer before high school, when they performed in a children's play.
"He was a spider plant, and I was peat moss," Weeks said.
Or maybe it was the other way around, he's not sure. Regardless, they became fast friends, performing children's theater together and dreaming of careers on stage or in film.
When Weeks turned 16, Payne gave him a gift certificate for his birthday. It was good for "One starring role in a movie that I direct."
Weeks kept that certificate for decades, believing all along that Payne would fulfill his dream of making movies in Hollywood.
They performed together throughout high school, working closely with the late Donn Ansell in the school's production of "Godspell," which has become something of a legendary show in Wilmington theater circles.
Weeks described Payne as a "shy, writer type," but said that he could always "sense a volcano underneath." Payne was senior class president and editor of the school yearbook.
Weeks and Payne started college together at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill before parting ways to seek show business careers – Payne in California and Weeks in New York.
Payne transferred from Chapel Hill to the University of California at Los Angeles, where he earned a B.A. in film and television and his MFA in screenwriting.
During college, Payne met Frink, who taught at UCLA. After Payne graduated, Frink hired him and they developed a friendship and working relationship. During their downtime at UCLA, Frink said, they worked on scripts. Payne wanted to pursue feature films, but Frink had contacts in television. So they worked together on sit-coms, including "Hope & Gloria," "Men Behaving Badly" and "The Brian Benben Show."
In 1998, they landed a job they both coveted. They won their first Emmy Award in 2000. Payne received the Writers Guild of America's Paul Selvin Award in 2005 for "The Simpsons" episode, "Fraudcast News."
By agreement, Frink's name always came first when they wrote for TV. If they had written features together, Payne's name would have come first.
Even when they were writing great episodes, they had disagreements.
"Sometimes people think that writing teams get along all the time," Frink said. "When we were onto something good, we'd always fight about it."
At the end of the day, they'd huff and puff and drive away mad. By the next morning, they were both apologetic and willing to compromise.
Eventually, they asked Fox executives to let them work separately. Frink said they figured that since they were being paid as a team that they could double their money. The plan didn't work out exactly as designed, but they continued to write for "The Simpsons."
Payne loved being able to bring "Thor" to the big screen, for audiences worldwide and for his own children.
"He was able to share that enthusiasm for comic books and superheroes with them," Weeks said. "Don loved his kids so much."
Those involved in the production of "The Simpsons" and "Thor" expressed their feelings on Twitter on Wednesday.
Actress Kat Dennings, who played Darcy Lewis in "Thor" and the upcoming sequel "Thor: The Dark World" tweeted her thoughts: "a wonderful, beautiful man. … I am lucky to have known you. You are so missed."
Even after Payne realized his dream of writing screenplays, he continued to work for "The Simpsons" two days a week, Frink said.
Payne received a star on the Wilmington Walk of Fame in 2005. He included references to Wilmington in at least one "Simpsons" episode, in which Homer refers to his high school classmates as "Wildcats." Payne did not attend his 30-year reunion at New Hanover, but he and Weeks did submit a video to be played for his classmates.
Denise Bass Daughtry, a Wilmington resident and a classmate of Payne's, said Payne called her from California in the 1990s, asking to borrow Crayons, a puppet that was used in the school's production of "Godspell." She kept asking Payne when Crayons would return home.
Crayons was enjoying life on the West Coast and auditioning for roles, he'd tell her. And the joke played out for nearly two decades.
A few years ago, Daughtry got a package in the mail. Crayons was tired of life in L.A. and was ready to come home.
"That puppet sits on my dresser to this day, but has never meant so much to me as it does in this moment," Daughtry said. "He gave Crayons life and stories. He was a true writer to the end."

The world first learned of the death of Osama bin Laden through Keith Urbahn, a 27-year-old chief of staff for former defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld. On the evening of May 1, Urbahn tweeted, "So I'm told by a reputable person they have killed Osama Bin Laden. Hot damn." The tweet found its way to New York Times TV reporter Brian Selter, who then broadcast it to the world; suddenly, Urbahn was an accessory to the biggest story of the year.
Last night, The New York Observer published a profile of Urbahn, who lives in Washington, D.C. with his wife. Here's some of what we learn in the Observer piece:
Urbahn heard the news from a TV producer who shall remain nameless. Sunday night, Urbahn got a call from a "connected network TV news producer"--that's all he'll say--who told him that bin Laden had evidently been killed, and the network wanted to arrange an interview with Rumsfeld. Urbahn "waved off the request--it was too premature," according to the Observer. Then, in his own words,
"I mentioned it offhand to my wife, and just threw it down on Twitter thinking there surely have to be a couple of dozen other people who have heard the same rumor and thought of [doing] the same thing ... But apparently not. The tweet went viral and it was off to the races at that point."
He didn't really think twice about The Tweet. "It didn't give me pause at the time," Urbahn told the Observer, "simply because I thought it would be repeated many more times and there was no chance in God's green earth that my tweet would in fact be what broke the news." Urbahn also says that Rumsfeld's office didn't know about the tweet in advance--a fact that stunned former White House press secretary Ari Fleischer into "silence for several seconds" when the Observer told him.
"Wow. I am startled," said Fleischer. "He didn't clear it with Rummy? Wow. Wow."
Rumsfeld is totes down with social media, by the way. "He is 78 years old, but he understands social media," Urbahn says of his boss. "He is on Twitter himself and he tweets things and comes up with ideas for things to throw on Facebook, and you know he gets it. I didn't have to explain to him what it was. He knew."
Urbahn would just as soon stay out of the media circus. The Observer notes that Urbahn "seemed anxious for his newfound celebrity to pass. He is not, he said, interested in a second career as a breaking news Tweeter." (Although he did tell The Daily Caller, "who knows, I may break some more major news in the future.")
The Observer quotes Urbahn as saying, "I can't really wrap my head around all of this so I may not be the best person to analyze why this has become the story ... This is a bit of a distraction, and it reaches a little bit to the level of media navel-gazing for my taste."

I'm having trouble with this sentence from H & Q Unit 8, I.13:
[face=SPIonic] a)reth/ toi to\ pa=san xw/ran sw|=zon, w=) ge/ron. [/face]
[face=SPIonic]a)reth/ [/face] nominative feminine singular = virtue
[face=SPIonic]to\ sw|=zon [/face] neuter singular article and present participle (presumably accusative since we already have a nominative feminine) = saving
[face=SPIonic]pa=san xw/ran [/face] accusative feminine singular and adjective, presumably object of [face=SPIonic]sw|=zon [/face] = the whole country
[face=SPIonic]w=) ge/ron [/face] vocative masculine singular.
I just can't put it all together as a sentence.

Merrimack man charged after Londonderry bank robberyBy APRIL GUILMET
Union Leader Correspondent
December 05. 2012 11:38AM
LONDONDERRY - A Merrimack man was arraigned in Derry District Court Wednesday morning, charged with robbing Citizens Bank in Londonderry Tuesday afternoon.
Londonderry Police arrested Jason Enwright on unrelated charges just over an hour after the robbery occurred. Citizens Bank, 42 Nashua Road, Londonderry, was robbed shortly after 4 p.m. Tuesday.
Londonderry Police promptly responded to the scene, along with members of the Derry Police Department and the State Police K-9 unit. Police left the scene just after 5:30 p.m., though the suspect remained at large. Around 5:40 p.m., Londonderry Police arrested Enwright on an unrelated bench warrant dating to November of 2011.
Police say surveillance photos taken during the robbery match the appearance of Enwright: a scruffy, white male between 5-foot-7 and 5-foot-9 wearing a baggy sweatshirt and black hat. Police said no weapon was shown during the incident, though they say one was "implied."
The robber allegedly left the bank in a white SUV with around $1,500 in cash after passing the teller a note demanding money. The bank was immediately closed, and police said there were very few customers inside at the time of the incident. About an hour later, police located a Chevy Blazer without a front plate in the parking lot of the nearby Route 102 gas station.
Enwright faces charges of robbery, theft, resisting arrest, civil assault and two counts of criminal threatening after he reportedly argued with officers attempting to arrest him. They said he spit at and threatened three police officers at Parkland Medical Center later that evening.
According to court documents, Enwright has had multiple run-ins with the law over the years, including previous arrests on charges of assault, receiving stolen property, larceny and theft by deception. Bail was set at $50,000 cash concurrent on three instances, with his bench warrant bail set at $500 cash. Enwright is scheduled to appear in 9th Circuit Court, Merrimack District Division, on Dec. 13.

Several central Ohioans will perform in this year's New Albany Symphony Orchestra Holiday Spectacular.
Several central Ohioans will perform in this year's New Albany Symphony Orchestra Holiday Spectacular.
The holiday concert will be at 3 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 16, at the Jeanne B. McCoy Community Center for the Arts, 100 W. Dublin-Granville Road in New Albany.
Performers include two high school students who won the symphony orchestra's 2012-13 student concerto competition, one of which is a Columbus Academy vocalist from Westerville. Singers in a Columbus-based chorus and dancers from a Gahanna studio also will be featured.
Heather Garner, director of the symphony orchestra, said the student concerto competition attracted many talented performers.
"It was a great competition," Garner said. "We are really getting some talented students. All (of them) this year were prepared to play with an orchestra. It was hard to choose."
The first-place winner is violinist Mariko Shimasaki of Springfield. Shimasaki, 17, is a senior at Kenton Ridge High School who began playing the violin at age 5 and plans to attend the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music. She serves as concertmaster of the Starling Chamber Orchestra as part of her pre-college work.
She will perform Gypsy Airs by Pablo de Sarasate.
The second-place winner is mezzo-soprano Michaella Cipriani, 17, of Westerville. She is a senior at Columbus Academy in Gahanna and a student of Robin Rice and Edward Bak, both of whom work for the Ohio State University. She is a fellowship student at the Chamber Music Connection and performs as a soloist with Opera Project Columbus and the Opera Columbus Chorus.
She will perform Que fais-tu, blanche tourterelle? from Charles Gounod's opera Romeo et Juliette.
Garner said Shimasaki and Cipriani should relate well to the audience.
"It's nice for (the children) to see such talented performers and it's a nice opportunity for families to hear a young performer," Garner said.
For Cipriani, who's interested in opera, the Holiday Spectacular will provide her with more performance experience.
"I usually just perform with piano," she said. "Singing with an orchestra, communicating with a conductor and cutting through that much sound is a good thing for me to get practice with since I'm interested in performing in operas, but it's not an opportunity that comes around often.
"I figure I might also get some new ideas about how to interpret my piece by performing it with a brand-new group of people. Also, since I'm using this piece for college auditions, it's good for me to get as much practice singing it front of an audience as I can."
Cipriani said she plans to study science and music in college.
The Holiday Spectacular also will feature ballroom dancers from Diamond Dance and Fitness in Gahanna and singers from the Capriccio Vocal Ensemble, a 70-member Columbus-based group that includes performers from Franklin County and surrounding areas. Garner said the singers will perform well-known Christmas songs and portions of George Frideric Handel's Messiah.
The McCoy center lobby will be full before, during and after the Holiday Spectacular, Garner said.
Representatives of GnG Music Instruction of New Albany will show children how to play small percussive instruments and drums and teach them about rhythm and beats, said Pamela Villarreal, GnG's director of operations.
The Holiday Spectacular also doubles as a fundraiser for the symphony orchestra. Garner said the annual gift-box fundraiser held in the McCoy center lobby typically raises $5,000.
Tickets are $12 to $20 in advance, or $14 to $22 Dec. 16. Tickets may be purchased at the McCoy center box office, which is open 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays, by phone at 614 245-4701. Tickets will be on sale up to one hour before the show.

Mon, 13 Aug 2001 22:20:49 -0700
The Washington Post reports the Washington Redskins are reportedly contemplating a trade for either Cade McNown (Bears) or Gus Frerotte (Broncos) as they seek out another QB to add to their roster. As reported earlier, they will also be pursuring several free agents. Free agent QB John Friesz is viewed by many as the most likely QB to be signed. The Redskins were also contacted by QB Stoney Case's agent, Gary Wichard, yesterday morning. Coach Marty Schottenheimer said the Redskins were more likely to sign a quarterback who is out of work than to trade for one.

|Lions | Team Notes
Fri, 02 Mar 2001 01:58:55 -0800
According to Curt Sylvester of the Free Press, the Detroit Lions will probably not pursue QB Doug Flutie. He wants to be a starter and likely will demand a starter's pay. Sources close to C Mike Compton said he told agent Vern Sharbaugh his Lions days are over. He reportedly is interested in playing in Carolina, Jacksonville or Washington. The team tendered offers to three restricted free agents, DB Lamar Campbell, C Eric Beverly and G Kerlin Blaise. The team wants to re-sign G Tony Semple and special-teams player Brock Olivo. Unrestricted free agents, RB Mario Bates, OT Barrett Brooks, QB Stoney Case and CB Marquis Walker probably won't be re-signed.

|Lions | Injury Update | More
Sat, 17 Feb 2001 01:31:53 -0800
Curt Sylvester of the Free Press reports Detroit Lions CB Bryant Westbrook continues his rehab from his ruptured Achilles' injury. CB Kevin Abrams, who has missed the past two years with a foot injury, probably will not play again. The team may be in the market for help at the QB position. It appears doubtful the Lions will pursue any of last year's backup QBs; Mike Tomczak, Stoney Case or Cory Sauter. Team President Matt Millen would prefer a veteran QB who knows the team's offensive scheme and is willing to be a teacher to QB Charlie Batch.
