Goal-shy Aussies held, Japan on course

Australia's Olympic qualifying hopes were dealt a blow by their third successive 0-0 draw as Japan and Korea Republic both stayed on track with narrow wins.

Olyroos coach Aurelio Vidmar said he was considering ordering extra shooting practice after the Aussies were held at home by Uzbekistan, after similar bore draws against United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Iraq.

The complete absence of goals has put Australia under severe pressure at the halfway stage with UAE and Iraq both capable of leapfrogging them into second place in Group B when they play later today.

The top teams from three groups gain an automatic ticket to London 2012, while the second-placed sides enter a round-robin with the prize of a play-off against an African nation.

"Maybe it's time we stopped doing tactical work at training and concentrated a bit more on shooting," Vidmar said. "We seem to be lacking that little bit of extra finesse (in attack). We get in front of the penalty box time and time again, but the wall pass goes too long or the through ball hits the striker on the back of the neck instead of going in front of him. It's the small detail that's letting us down."

At Sydney's Parramatta Stadium, the Australians' lack of cutting edge in front of goal again proved their undoing against the resilient and hard-nosed Uzbeks, who earned the home team's ire with their time-wasting tactics.

While Uzbekistan retained the group lead, the Olyroos have now played four-and-a-half hours of football without finding the net, which has left them struggling to keep pace halfway through qualifying.

Maybe it's time we stopped doing tactical work at training and concentrated a bit more on shooting.
Aurelio Vidmar, Australia coach

Japan retain Group C control
In Tokyo, Borussia Monchengladbach summer-signing Yuki Otsu's 86th-minute winner gave Japan a 2-1 win over Syria and the outright lead in Group C with a maximum nine points.

Striker Otsu got on the end of a Yusuke Higa cross to settle it for the Japanese after Omar Al Suma's solo effort had cancelled out defender Mizuki Hamada's first-half opener. "I felt Higa would send a nice cross to me," said Otsu. "Since I went to Germany, I learned that I must be always ready for a cross. We needed a goal as soon as possible, so I was ready for it."

Meanwhile, Korea Republic needed a first-half penalty as they edged Saudi Arabia 1-0 to stay top of Group A. Cho Young-Cheol put his 33rd-minute spot-kick past Saudi 'keeper Hussein Shaian after defender Ahmed Walibi's foul, stretching Korea Repbulic's group lead to four points ahead of second-placed Oman's game with Qatar.

Bahrain stun Malaysia late
In Kuala Lumpur, Bahrain stunned Malaysia with three goals in the last ten minutes as they stormed back to win a remarkable match 3-2.

The visitors had gone behind to a long-distance scorcher from Malaysian livewire Muhammad Nazmi and they looked dead-and-buried when Mohamed Al Hayam put the ball in his own net midway through the second half. But a moment of magic from Saad Al Amer reduced the deficit on 80 minutes when his sublime bicycle-kick dropped over goalkeeper Khairul Fahmi and into the Malaysian net.

Four minutes later Bahrain were back on terms courtesy of a superb free-kick from Isa Al Ahmed, who was then on hand to fire the winner on 86 minutes. The dramatic turnaround earned Bahrain their first points of qualifying but it put a big dent in the hopes of Malaysia, who have now lost twice since lifting the Southeast Asian Games trophy last week.

Hiddink rules out staying on

Guus Hiddink has insisted that he will not extend his spell as Chelsea's interim manager beyond the end of the season.

The Dutchman agreed to take charge at Stamford Bridge in the wake of Luiz Felipe Scolari's sacking as a personal favour to Roman Abramovich, the Chelsea owner, and will juggle his duties in west London with those as Russia's national head coach until May. Hiddink has not signed a contract with the English Premier League club and it had been suggested that the 62-year-old would consider staying with Chelsea on a permanent basis if his caretaker spell proves successful.

However, Hiddink, speaking at his inaugural press conference at Stamford Bridge, has confirmed that he will leave Chelsea regardless of his achievements during his three-month stint in charge, citing his obligations to the Russian Football Federation. "The situation is that Chelsea asked me to help until the end of the season," he said. "But I also have a full-hearted obligation and contract with the Russian Football Federation which I will fulfil as well.

"I only did this because of the strong relationship between the Chelsea owner and the Russian Federation. If another club had asked me to take over, I would have said no. I am very committed to Russia: I am head coach and I am also participating with an academy project with the Russian Federation as well.

I will go back to Russia in March and then again from the end of May. I am certain I am only here until the end of the season.
Guus Hiddink on his future and juggling the two roles.

"I will have time to do both. The international calender is such that at the end of March, there are two games and then nothing until June. If the schedule had been different, it would have been difficult. So I will go back to Russia in March and then again from the end of May. I am certain I am only here until the end of the season."

Hiddink may only be ensconced at Stamford Bridge for the short term, but he is determined to make a success of his spell in England. The former Netherlands manager admitted it would be "difficult" to catch league leaders Manchester United, who are currently 10 points clear at the top of the table, but with Chelsea still involved in both the UEFA Champions League and the FA Cup, he sees winning silverware as a realistic target.

"They are used to winning trophies at this club so let's try and repeat it," he said. "If they don't, of course, you can't be happy. I am certainly not just here to pass the time until the end of the season. It's a challenge, although the time is limited. We know the situation with Chelsea. We have three paths of competition open to us: in the league, we are 10 points down on Manchester United, so realistically that will be very difficult. But we must and will give it a try."

The first hurdle for Hiddink to clear is Saturday's trip to third-placed Aston Villa, a match which could prove decisive in the club's bid to cling on to their top four status. "If you see the record of Villa recently, they have had a very good period, both home and away," he added. "It's tough, but we want to play and change spots with them as soon as possible."

Zenit clinch second consecutive title

Zenit St Petersburg clinched their second consecutive Russian title and third overall with a 2-1 win over guests Dynamo Moscow on Saturday. The result left Zenit, who also won the 1984 title, with 84 points from 41 matches and an unassailable 15-point advantage over Moscow sides Dynamo and CSKA, who share second spot.

Zenit, who needed just a point in their home match with Dynamo to secure the title, started confidently and clinched the lead in the 30th minute through midfielder Roman Shirokov, who scored on Andrei Arshavin's pass.

Alexander Kerzhakov added his goal six minutes later, scoring with a precise spot-kick after Dynamo defender Balazs Dzsudzsak fouled Vladimir Bystrov in the box. Dynamo full-back Alexandru Epureanu reduced the arrears just before the interval, but failed to save the day for his club. However, Zenit were weakened in the 56th minute, when Konstantin Zyryanov was sent off.

"My team have played two terrific consecutive seasons and this one was especially great," said Zenit coach Luciano Spalletti. "It was a long and tough season, but we did everything right. My team have tremendous character and today my guys demonstrated it again."

CSKA take derby spoils
CSKA joined Dynamo in second after beating old foes Spartak 2-1 in the Moscow derby. Serbian midfielder Zoran Tosic put CSKA 1-0 up in the 23rd minute with a 35-metre free-kick and a little help from a slight deflection.

Spartak forward Artem Dzyuba equalised just before the break firing into the top left-handed corner after some good individual work. But Tosic became the match hero scoring his second to restore the Red Army side's lead in the 57th minute, sending the ball into the net with another precise free-kick from the right edge of the area.

It was a long and tough season, but we did everything right.
Luciano Spalletti, Zenit coach

Spartak midfielder Dmitry Kombarov virtually dashed his side's chances when he was sent off for a second bookable offence with nine minutes to go.

Anzhi seal Europa League berth
Anzhi Makhachkala, coached by Dutch guru Guus Hiddink, beat guests Lokomotiv Moscow 3-1 to leapfrog them in the table to take fifth and with it, the right to play in the UEFA Europa League next season.

Anzhi clinched the lead in the 25th minute, when Lokomotiv defender Taras Burlak sent the ball into his own net in an attempt to clear Samuel Eto'o's right-handed cross. Six minutes later Lokomotiv captain Denis Glushakov levelled firing home from just inside the area after an Anzhi mix-up in defence.

But Eto'o netted Anzhi's winning goal in the 64th minute, sending the ball into the net with a sharp-angled shot despite the physical presence of two Lokomotiv defenders. The Cameroonian star rounded off the scoring in injury time with his 11th goal this season, with a close-range shot.

"We have been fine-tuning our attacking actions in recent weeks as it's not so easy to score in the Russian league," Hiddink said. "Today our homework paid off.

Innumerable preteens fantasise over becoming a musician or a footballer. A faint fraction have the ability to realistically contemplate a career in either. An atomic portion have the capacity to pragmatically consider both.

But one 14-year-old had that seldom ‘dilemma’ as he grew up in the serene north-Italian countryside in 1950. Luciano possessed a unique, uproarious voice and the reflexes that inflamed his dream of becoming a professional goalkeeper. As those around the Modanesi urged him to dedicate himself to either musica or calcio, his mind see-sawed one way then the other.

Ultimately, following abundant deliberation, he chose to pursue a career in front of the microphone. “I probably loved football a little more than I loved music at the time, but my voice was probably a little better than my hands,” he later recalled.

It was a decision that would be categorically vindicated. For while there’s no telling how good a goalkeeper Luciano would have become, it’s inconceivable that he would have realised more on the pitch than he did in concert. His surname was Pavarotti. He is arguably the greatest operatic tenor in history.

Twenty-eight years after the legendary Italian paused at that career junction, a 14-year-old Brazilian found himself in a parallel predicament: music or football?

Rodrigo could play the guitar masterfully. He could sing. He was a practised violinist. He was even a dab hand at writing rock tunes. But he was also making seductive, sonorous waves on football fields around Rio de Janeiro. Infatuated, America handed him a trial. A pass was a potential gateway to greatness - former Seleção representatives Danilo, Djalma Dias, Edu Coimbra and Jorginho can verify that. However, despite achieving that elusive pass, the gifted left-footer declined to join the club's youth ranks.

Legions of his compatriots are indebted to that judgment. For Rodrigo Luiz de Castro Santos has embellished the music industry for close to three decades, most prominently as a bass guitarist in Barão Vermelho, one of the most influential Brazilian rock groups in history. He is also the founder and lead vocalist of Os Britos, a captivating Beatles tribute group with whom he won an Order of the British Empire award, presented by Prince Andrew in London in 2006, one year before launching his burgeoning solo career.

I always thought I was a better footballer than I was a musician! But my music career was starting to take off and I just went with the flow.
Rodrigo Santos on choosing to pursue a career in music rather than football

Yet despite the enormity of his success, Rodrigo had a surprise revelation for “I always thought I was a better footballer than I was a musician!,” he exclaimed, an intrinsic, infectious grin emblazoned across his face. “But my music career was starting to take off and I just went with the flow. I don’t know what would have happened if I’d have returned to America, but I don’t regret my decision.”

That decision did not serve to abate Rodrigo’s addiction to football. Indeed, in that same 1978 he began to sketch every single goal Flamengo scored, employing arrows to depict ball and player movements. He did so religiously for six years and has done so sporadically thereafter. He also boasts an immense collection of footballing articles, videos and memorabilia.

“Music is my profession and everybody knows how much I love it, but football has always been my biggest passion,” he explained. “I play whenever I get the chance and I’ll watch any game. It’s an addiction.

“It has brought me such joy over the years. I’ve seen Flamengo win the Libertadores and world titles, and Brazil win the World Cup. One of my best memories was seeing Zico and Pele play together live for Flamengo [O Rei was 39 when he participated in the 1979 charity match]. We beat Atletico Mineiro 5-1. The Maracana was packed and the atmosphere was incredible. I have the entire match on video.”

This magnitude of fixation has regularly clashed with the 46-year-old’s marriage to music. “I’ve always got very, very irritated when Barão had a gig on the same day as a Flamengo or Brazil game,” he lamented, amid a ratifying nod from his band-mate Fernando Magalhaes. “There was nothing worse. I would moan non-stop.

“I’ve had to watch matches in hotel rooms, in airports, on really poor-quality portable televisions in the back of vans, backstage at gigs, all over the place. Guto (Goffi) and Peninha are diehard Flamenguistas and love football, so we’d always watch the games together. But some of the other guys in and around the band would wind us up something rotten.

“The best thing about launching a solo career is that I was able to tell my manager not to book any gigs when Flamengo are playing. Sometimes it’s unavoidable, though, and I still get really irritated.

“I hate watching football outside Rio. If I’m not in the stadium, I like to be at home around my mates. But only those that understand football properly. I hate watching a match with someone who doesn’t. I love my mother but she doesn’t have a clue about football – I stopped her watching matches by my side a long time ago! I get very nervous when my teams are playing. I need to concentrate on the game. I can’t stomach people around me making jokes or talking about other things.”

Rodrigo is acutely aware that irritation caused by football has a crueller brother by the name of devastation. “I remember 2006. Ronaldinho Gaucho, Ronaldinho Fenómeno, Adriano, Kaka… Brazil had won that World Cup before they had kicked a ball,” he said.

“After the France game [the South Americans lost 1-0 in their quarter-final] I walked into the kitchen. My son Leo, who was seven at the time, and his mate Eduardo were crying uncontrollably. I knew the feeling, sheer emptiness. I felt it in 1982. It’s a devastating feeling. There was nothing I could say.”

Rodrigo, regrettably, foresees deeper tragedy for his beloved Seleção at the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™ – tragedy beholden to enemy hands lifting the hallowed Trophy. “I think Argentina will win it. (Lionel) Messi’s capable of anything and they have other great players.

Brazil will make them work for it though. If we can play the exciting football for which we’ve earned a reputation over the years, the South Africans could get behind us, just like the Mexicans got behind us once they were eliminated in 1970. This would be a big help. And if Neymar’s in the team I feel we could beat anyone. He’s a fantastic player. I don’t think Dunga will take him, but I really hope he does.

“Whatever happens, I think it’s going to be a great World Cup. The African supporters are very passionate. They’ll give the World Cup a very unique feel with their dancing and vuvuzelas.”

I’ve always got very, very irritated when Barão had a gig on the same day as a game. The best thing about launching a solo career is that I was able to tell my manager not to book any when Flamengo are playing.
Rodrigo Santos

This year could, potentially, be the annus mirabilis of Rodrigo’s enduring devotion to football. Indeed, his country are among the favourites for gold at the FIFA World Cup, and his club beat Corinthians 1-0 last night in the first leg of the Copa Libertadores last 16.

“I’ve written a song about Flamengo, including all the great players throughout their history, from Leonidas da Silva and Zizinho through to Leo Moura and Adriano. If we win the Libertadores I’ll release it. It’s got a catchy rhythm and is the type the fans could adopt and sing on the terraces.”

It would be a fitting way for Rodrigo Santos to combine his profession with his obsession.

Full Report: Spina-Gokel!

By Bill Luppert and Scott Ploof at ringside
Photos: Emily Harney

A fighter will take a win no matter how they get it. Some victories however can be less than satisfying. Such was the case at the Twin River Event Center in Lincoln, RI on Friday night as light heavyweight Joey “The KO Kid” Spina (24-1-1, 17 KOs) knocked out journeyman Matt Gokel (12-10, 7 KOs) at 1:55 of the first round. The sold out nine bout fight card was promoted by Classic Entertainment and Sports. In what may be considered the fight of the night by many in the audience, “Irish” Joe McCreedy (10-2-1, 5 KOs) won a very hard fought and closely contested majority decision over Bobo “The Bull” Starnino (9-5-2, 2 KOs) in a rematch of their previous encounter.

Linares headed to Venezuela

By Joe Koizumi

On the next day after a press conference to announce his next title defense against unbeaten Mexican Juan Carlos Salgado on October 10, WBA super-feather champ Jorge Linares (27-0, 18 KOs), a Japan-based Venezuelan, left for his native country on Wednesday to make a triumphal return, and then move to Las Vegas to do strenuous training with good sparring partners. The unbeaten Golden Boy (El Nino de Oro), 24, is supposed to return here in September for his final tune-up prior to the sensational event named “Homecoming.”

The U.S. military relies on special agents to gather information about the plans of its enemies. These agents put their lives on the line to find and bring back this important knowledge. One of these agents is AGENT SCARLETT. She started her counterintelligence work by analyzing evidence, setting up surveillance equipment, and preparing reports. After she proved her abilities in small missions, she began to conduct field operations. Much of her job is finding and verifying information, but that's dangerous work when you're dealing with sources that are part of the evil COBRA organization. On one secret operation, she encountered ZARTAN, a master of disguises who jeopardized the mission by impersonating a G. I. JOE team member. Now AGENT SCARLETT vows to unmask ZARTAN so that he can never endanger anyone again.

"People ask me what it takes to be a good agent. I say: integrity, courage, and intelligence."

ZARTAN can become anyone by changing his looks, personality, and voice. He's a genius with make-up and disguises and speaks over 20 languages and dialects. He can get in and out of places the size of a shoebox. He was forced to abandon a deadly mission when AGENT SCARLETT saw through his disguise. This was the first time someone had uncovered any of his deceptions, so now he lives to put her away so that she will never unmask him again. A mysterious member of COBRA, he proved his value to the organization by impersonating COBRA COMMANDER then revealing his brilliant deception to the stunned–and impressed–commander.

"I can be anyone, anywhere. You will never know that you are talking to me, unless I wish it."

Heart Attack (7 Days) First Week Collection At Box Office

Posted by:
Share this on your social network:
   Facebook Twitter Google+ Comments Mail

Puri Jagannadh's latest directorial venture Heart Attack starring Nitin and Adah Sharma in leads, turned out to be a big money spinner at the ticket counters in Andhra Pradesh and other parts of India. With its superb collection, the movie has topped the domestic business in the first week. But the film has failed to overtake its rival Pandavulu Pandavulu Tummeda in the international market.

Heart Attack, which released in record number of screens in the state on January 31, debuted with a fantabulous response and the good word of mouth took its business upwards over the weekend. Its business dipped considerably on Monday and the movie witnessed downward trends on the following days. The Puri Jagannadh-directed flick has collected approximately Rs 15 crores nett at the worldwide Box Office in the first week.

Heart Attack

The Nitin and Adah Sharma starrer has been made on a medium budget of Rs 14 crores by the Puri Jagannadh Touring Talkies and the makers of Heart Attack have recovered Rs 21 crores from the sale of its satellite and distribution rights before the release of the flick. The producers are all happy with its performance at the ticket counters in the first week. However, with the release of three new movies, its collection is likely to go down in the second week.

The last time we talked about the upcoming Monsters University, we shared some great international posters for the whole thing, remember? Today, it’s time for a little update, ’cause we have another international (read: Japanese) trailer and two more viral videos (including a message from the Dean) to share with you, so make sure you check them out!

Dan Scanlon directed this 3D comedy and a prequel to 2001’s Monsters, Inc. Set about ten years before the events of Monsters, Inc., it centers on a serious yet intelligent Michael Mike Wazowski who is extremely eager to start college, where he is majoring in scaring…

Mike Wazowski and James P. Sullivan are an inseparable pair, but that wasn’t always the case. From the moment these two mismatched monsters met they couldn’t stand each other. Monsters University unlocks the door to how Mike and Sulley overcame their differences and became the best of friends.

Produced by Kori Rae, and voiced by John Goodman, Billy Crystal, Steve Buscemi, Ben Kingsley, Helen Mirren, David Spade, Alfred Molina and Ricky Gervais, Monsters University is set to hit theaters on June 21st, 2013.

Bio Photo I have been working on my family tree since the mid- 1990's. Most of my family tree is accessible on Rootsweb at:

I also have a tree at ancestry.com.

Most of my Find a Grave entries are ancestors or kin, and I would be interested in contacting anyone who also is a descendant or kin.

I have added a whole bunch of unrelated entries from the Lochalsh Cemetery in Ashfield Township, Ontario. Since I suspect some of these may also be kin, or ancestors, I would be interested in hearing from anyone who has more information about them. I have also added a few apparently unrelated folks memorials, from cemeteries I have been to. I haven't really tried to "cover" any of these cemeteries, but while I was there walking, I snapped photos of graves that caught my eye. When I determined these weren't relatives and no one else had created a memorial for them, I did. I would be happy to transfer any of these memorials to anyon interested.

Also, please feel free to use any of the photographs I have taken, for any purpose you desire.

RE: Gamel Cemetery, Festus, MO
Hi Rick,
Thank you for your quick and helpful reply. It is nice to meet a cousin (or something like that)! Emma Mary (Kenner) and William A. Gamel were our great grandparents and actually lived with my grandparents (Mary (Evens) and William Bertram Gamel when our mother, Elizabeth McClary (Gamel), was a child.

Re the cemetery geography, we have responsibility for the fenced in portion which is designated as available burial space for the direct descendants of Robert and Elizabeth Gamel. At some point, the Gamel farm donated portions of the farm to the Christian, Methodist, and Presbyterian churches of Festus, and those 3 churches maintain those grounds still today. We have a separate caretaker for the fenced in portion.

We wonder if you know of any living relatives of those buried in the private cemetery? We are new to this kind of research so any leads would be helpful. Two sisters -- whose great grandmother was Lucy (Gamel) Buren, sister of William A. Gamel, -- are on our board of trustees. As far as we know, the Buren descendants and the grandchildren of William B. are the only persons alive who have interest in being buried there or supporting the cemetery (which we do completely though donations).

Thank you again. We look forward to continuing to read your posts and to learning more about the cemetery. By the way, if you are not familiar with it, you may want to check out the book "Our Jefferson County Heritage" by Zoe Booth Rutledge. It contains a wonderful description of the founding of the cemetery when the Gamel boys were killed there in 1862.

Warm regards,
Laura Avakian and Jane Oakley

Gamel Cemetery, Festus, MO
Hi Rick,

I came across your photos of some of our ancestors today as my sister and I were researching the Gamel Cemetery in Festus, MO. It is a family cemetery that is on the property of our great great grandfather, and the burial ground originated with the murder in 1862 by "northern hirelings" of two of the Gamel brothers on furlough from the Confederate Army.The cemetery is a nonprofit entity now, and I serve as president of its board.

The board is interested in registering the cemetery as an historic site. We are completing an application which requests information about the deceased as well as photographs. We will use some of your photos, if okay with you. And we are curious whether you are related to anyone buried there or how you happened to be interested in the cemetery.

Thank you very much.

James Roy Sullivan

My name is Gail Scaramuzzo. My grandfather is Luverne E. Hanson who was married to Helen Cecelia Thornley.

Luverne and his first wife, Laura Mae Wilson had 1 child, my mom Gloria Jean Hanson.

I was wondering the cause of death of James Roy Sullivan.

I am assuming Helen and Luverne's son James Roy Hanson was named after her half brother.

I am also trying to find James Roy, or as I knew him, Roy Hanson.

I think he ended up in Ohio with Helen after Luverne died.

Anyway, thanks for all you do.

Sarah Swink McNutt
I have transferred Sarah's memorial to you so that you can manage. I would prefer to keep George. His grandfather was also George McNutt who came from Rockbridge Co., VA and had a farm in east Knoxville. I grew up on that farm and have been researching the McNutt's for years. If you have any further information on George, Sarah's husband, that you would like for me to add you can send it along and I will be happy to add the information and give you credit for its addition. Blessings

RE: Gladys Reynolds
Hello Rick and it is nice to meet you. I must apologize for the significant delay in replying to your message. My computer died on Oct 17 last year and my husband has had some medical problems that have required attention and it has only been a few days ago that I was able to purchase a new computer and to get back on the internet. Gladys and Andy Reynolds are my maternal grandparents. I can remember when I was quite young that we would get a Christmas card every year from a man named Merle Ald but I was to young to be interested in genealogy @ the time and I honestly do not remember what relation my mother told me he was to us.I remember getting Christmas cards from my Uncle Harley Climpson. I believe that he and his wife had 3 boys and a daughter. I'm sure you are aware that my Grandma Reynolds had a sister named Geraldine Arens who passed away several years back and she had 2 children (David and Joni) Please feel free to add any info that you have to the site for my grandparents. including pictures. I'm not sure if you would want or need this information but my mother Guinevere M Reynolds Durre was born on June 9, 1921 and passed away December 21 1982. Her Brother Charles Gail was born May 16 ( I am unsure of the year but I'm thinking 1935) and he passed away in December 1993. His wife's name is Patsy Medler Reynolds and I do not know if she remarried or has passed away. They have 2 boys and I believe they both live near Chicago. Andy Guy Reynolds and Scott Reynolds. I hope this information is helpful to you. Again please forgive me for not responding sooner.

Waggener Kin
It is not to often I run across the same exact spelling of Waggener, but I am finding more and more with the same spelling in the last 5 years. I have been searching for relatives with that spelling as I am a descendent as well. My grandfather was a Waggener from Litchfield. His family came west in the early 1800's and most from that side are buried here. His father and ancestors came from McCracken County, Kentucky, but I have not been able to find information other than that they came from Germany and it stops there.

Cook the Issue 2010: Spaghetti with Brussels Sprouts, Walnuts, and Pecorino

By Pielove, member

October 22nd, 2010

This was very tasty, with the nutty walnuts playing off the nuttiness of the browned brussels sprouts, plus the cheese and the sweetness of the onions.  Instead of boiling the sprouts, which did not sound very appealing, I used my food processor to chiffonade them-- a trick I learned from Biscuit over in the old Cook's Talk-- and then just sauteed them in the olive oil.  This had great flavors, but it could have used a bit more sauce-- maybe a splash of cream, or I should have been more generous with the olive oil.  I did add some of the water from cooking the pasta-- a little more would have helped.  Otherwise a great recipe and a big hit with everyone (except the kid) including my visiting parents.

My Recipe Box

Miso-Marinated Sirloin Steak (Gyuniku no misozuke)

Serves four.

As an accompaniment, try stir-fried rice. I like to use the trimmed beef fat (rendered over low heat) as the cooking oil, but it’s also fine to use vegetable oil.

  • 7 oz. (3/4 cup) brown miso (also called akamiso or red miso)
  • 1/2 cup mirin (sweet cooking wine)
  • 1/4 cup sake (rice wine)
  • 1-1/2 lb. top sirloin steak, 1 inch thick, excess fat trimmed
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup brandy

In a medium bowl, combine the miso, 1/4 cup of the mirin, and the sake to make a soft paste. Spread about one-third of the paste (a heaping 1/3 cup) in a large pan or platter that will hold the steak. Lay two layers of cheesecloth over the miso marinade and set the steak on top. Cover with two more layers of cheesecloth. Spread the remaining miso marinade on top. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate 5 to 10 hours, or overnight. (If marinating overnight, don’t leave the marinade on the meat longer than 10 hours; remove the steak from the marinade, wrap it in plastic, and refrigerate until you’re ready to cook.)

Remove the steak from the cloth, reserving 2 Tbs. of the marinade. If there is any miso paste on the beef, gently wipe it off with a paper towel.

Heat a large skillet on medium high and add the oil. When it’s hot, add the steak, browning it on one side for 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook for another 3 minutes. Turn the steak over, increase the heat to medium high, and brown on the other side for about 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook until medium rare, another 1 to 2 minutes. Check the doneness by pressing the meat with your fingers or by making a tiny cut into it (remember that it will continue to cook a bit off the heat). When it’s resilient outside but feels soft as you press deeper, it’s rare. A 1-inch-thick steak will take about 10 minutes to cook to medium rare.

Transfer the steak to a plate and cover loosely. Pour off any excess oil from the skillet, set the skillet over medium heat, and add 1/2 cup water and the remaining 1/4 cup mirin, scraping up any browned bits to help them dissolve. Add the reserved 2 Tbs. miso marinade, lower the heat, and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and add the brandy (if you’re comfortable doing this, light it with a match to burn off some of the alcohol; otherwise, skip this step). Using a sieve lined with cheesecloth, strain the sauce into a small saucepan. Simmer over medium heat until it’s slightly thickened. Cut the steak into 1/3- to 1/2-inch slices and serve drizzled with the sauce.

Excellent, excellent, excellent! If you like miso soup, you'll love this. The red miso creates perfect flavor.

Existence Quotes

Each day comes to me with both hands full of possibilities, and in its brief course I discern all the verities and realities of my existence; the bliss of growth, the glory of action, the spirit of beauty.

Helen Keller

The theory of evolution by cumulative natural selection is the only theory we know of that is in principle capable of explaining the existence of organized complexity

Richard Dawkins

Anxiety and distress, interrupted occasionally by pleasure, is the normal course of man's existence.

Joseph Wood Krutch

A man may fulfil the object of his existence by asking a question he cannot answer, and attempting a task he cannot achieve.

Oliver Wendell Holmes

One hour of life, crowded to the full with glorious action, and filled with noble risks, is worth whole years of those mean observances of paltry decorum, in which men steal through existence, like sluggish waters through a marsh, without either honor or observation.

Sir Walter Scott

I believe that one of the great problems for us as individuals is the depression and the tension resulting from existence in a world which is increasingly less pleasing to the eye.

Claudia Alta Taylor Johnson

The only reason for the existence of a novel is that it does attempt to represent life.

Henry James

The existence of forgetting has never been proved: We only know that some things don't come to mind when we want them.

Friedrich Nietzsche

The true lover of learning then must his earliest youth, as far as in him lies, desire all truth. . .He whose desires are drawn toward knowledge in every form will be absorbed in the pleasures of the soul, and will hardly feel bodily pleasures- -I mean, if he be a true philosopher and not a sham one. . .Then how can he who has the magnificence of mind and is the spectator of all times and all existence, think much of human life? He cannot. Or can such a one account death fearful? No indeed.

Meditation upon the unknown Thought He thought was real meditation. No, meditation is not and cannot be On any thought. Meditation is a conscious withdrawal From the thought-world. Meditation is the place Where Reality, Divinity and Immortality Can each claim their own Perennial existence-light.

Sri Chinmoy

Meditation speaks. It speaks in silence. It reveals. It reveals to the aspirant that matter and spirit are one, quantity and quality are one, the immanent and the transcendent are one. It reveals that life can never be the mere existence of seventy or eighty years between birth and death, but is, rather, Eternity itself

Sri Chinmoy

Two strongly influential movements--naturalism and absurdism--have polarized western theatre, arguing respectively for a tidy global perspective of human behavior or for an idiosyncratic local vision, in which ultimately no human behavioral patterns can be abstracted. One is left to choose between existence represented as strict linear determinism or as utter randomness.

An ''unemployed'' existence is a worse negation of life than death itself.

Jose Ortega Y Gasset

Man supposes that he directs his life and governs his actions, when his existence is irretrievably under the control of destiny

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Philosophy always requires something more, requires the eternal, the true, in contrast to which even the fullest existence as such is but a happy moment

Ten Great Reasons to Travel to Duluth MN Summer 2014

Tweet about this on Twitter2Share on Google+3Pin on Pinterest0Share on Facebook23

You may not be thinking summer when you look out the window today, but it is time to make your plans to get to Duluth Minnesota this summer and enjoy all our beautiful city has to offer.  We are giving you ten specific reasons to make your travel plans and when you arrive, we will give you more things to do, places to see, restaurants to dine at and more.

1.  Grandma’s Marathon 2014 takes place on Saturday, June 21st.  This world class running race is one of the biggest marathons in the United States and folks come from all over the world.  Whether you are a runner–fast or slow–or a spectator, this weekend is a great event with a health and fitness expo, music, and an all-you-can-eat spaghetti feed.

2.  Glensheen — the historic Congdon Estate is not to be missed.  Built in 1908 this magnificent property is one of our guests favorite attractions.  Not only is the house amazing but the property outside in the summer is beautiful and serene.  The Glensheen Mansion is open daily May 26 through October 19th, 2014.  Visit their website for all the information.

3.  Duluth is the Craft Brew Capital of Minnesota.  Because we have Lake Superior and it is the biggest freshwater lake in the world, and its water makes great beer, our Mayor Don Ness is calling Duluth the craft beer capital of Minnesota.  You can tour microbreweries and brewpubs in and around Duluth and take in a variety of locally crafted beers.  Canal Park Brewing Company is a great place to begin your tour.

4.  The Great Lakes Aquarium is a one-of-a-kind attraction on the shore of Lake Superior with hands-on exhibits and over 205 different species of birds, fish, reptiles, amphibians and mammals on site.  The aquarium is open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

5.  Our favorite activity in the summer is to take a cruise aboard the Vista Fleet.  Your trip to Duluth is not complete unless you enjoy a leisurely trip on Lake Superior.  You can reserve a lunch or dinner cruise or just a sightseeing cruise and we guarantee you will learn something new about Duluth!

6.  The St. Louis County Heritage and Arts Center which is known as The Depot is located at 506 West Michigan Street in Duluth.  You can spend an entire day exploring the Midwest’s largest indoor train museum, two Duluth Art Institute galleries, the exhibit by the St. Louis County Historical Society and you may even want to enjoy a performing art presentation by the Duluth Playhouse.  The Depot is open Memorial Day through Labor Day 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily.

7.  Ride your bike!  You can ride leisurely on the 25 miles of trail from Lester Park to Fond du Lac or your can try the downhill trails at Spirit Mountain!  The Lakewalk is paved from Canal Park to Brighton Beach and for those avid bikers, the Willard Munger trail goes for 70 miles from Duluth through the beautiful landscape.  We have more trail maps and ideas for your biking adventure during your stay in Duluth!

8.  The Duluth Airshow is scheduled August 23-24, 2014 and will include the U.S. Navy Blue Angels at the Duluth International Airport.  We love this event and try to get to our secret spot to watch this exciting performance.  (We’ll share it with you when you stay with us).  The airshow will be the highlight of “Duluth Navy Week” with events planned each and every day.  For all the information and tickets go to www.duluthairshow.com or call (218)628-9996.

9.  Pack your blanket for a great night under the stars in Duluth.  Movies in the Park are featured family films every Friday evening throughout the summer season and located in beautiful Leif Erikson Park which is located at 12th Avenue East and London Road–just minutes from The Firelight Inn!

10.  Your place to stay while you are in Duluth is with us at our historic Inn.  Our five luxurious suites offer you a historical stay but with modern amenities.  Click on our rooms and rates page to see our rooms and choose the suite just right for your getaway.  We do look forward to hosting your trip to Duluth and promise a great summer adventure!

P&G brings back A.G. Lafley as CEO, McDonald out

REUTERS - Procter & Gamble Co (PG.N) on Thursday brought back A.G. Lafley to run the world's largest household products maker, replacing Bob McDonald in the roles of chairman, president and chief executive officer effective immediately.

The move comes as some investors have pushed for faster improvements from the world's largest household products maker.

Lafley first joined P&G in 1977 and served as president and CEO from 2000 to 2009, when he handed the CEO post over to McDonald.

The maker of Tide detergent and Gillette razors also stood by its fiscal year and fourth quarter guidance. Its fiscal year ends on June 30.

McDonald, 59, is set to retire on June 30, after 33 years at P&G.

Robert Downey Jr. is back as Tony Stark in Iron Man 3 . I found his performance every bit as delightful as previous installments.

Though still witty, Tony Stark has lost some of his brashness in this movie. His encounter with aliens in  The Avengers  has left him shaken and prone to anxiety. He’s asking himself how he can make sense of life post-Avengers.

Director Shane Black had to wrestle with a similar question. I can only imagine that after seeing  The Avengers  he asked himself how am I supposed to follow  that ? In my estimation he managed to answer that question quite well.

This third installment in the Iron Man franchise matures Tony emotionally. In the first movie, Tony is a millionaire playboy, who has a life-changing experience. He rises from the dead, so to speak, in order to atone for the past and save lives. In the sequel, we find Tony still wrestling with the same demons that plagued him in the first film. He’s abusing alcohol, and he cannot break free from the party lifestyle. The second movie frustrated me because Tony was stuck in this rut. What happened to the life change?

Shane Black gave me the new Tony Stark that I had been waiting for. Tony’s given up the booze and parties. He’s in a stable relationship with Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow). He’s still plagued by demons, but these demons of confusion and anxiety mark a man who is wrestling with his world. He’s no longer attempting to numb himself to the pain around him.

Though I like the film’s narrative arc, it wasn’t flawlessly executed. Black recycles some of the villain’s motivation from earlier movies in the franchise. I detected a fairly large plot hole towards the end of the film, but I won’t elaborate because I don’t want to spoil anything.

The good outweighs the bad. There’s an especially beautiful scene in which Tony saves Pepper, sacrificing his own safety. I thoroughly enjoyed watching Tony Stark grow up. I think you will too.

*If you’re the kind of person who whines about too many superhero movies, then you can read my  defense of the genre  that I wrote last summer.

6 Tips For A Stable Aquarium

Providing a stable, healthy environment for fish and plants is key to aquarium success. Following is a list of 6 simple tips that, when followed, will help your aquarium be as stable and healthy as possible.

1. Completely empting an aquarium, for any reason, is not a good idea; the delicate biological balance will be disturbed and undo stress will be put on yourfish and plants.

2. Water changes should never be more than 40% at one time. 25% change every two weeks is a much safer and healthier alternative.

3. During water changes, keeping ½ of the filter media will retain the established biological balance that has been already achieved.

4. NEVER use soap or detergent in your aquarium; the same applies to anything that comes in contact with the aquarium, such as buckets or cloths.

5. Be careful not to pick up sand or gravel while cleaning the inside glass. Doing so will scratch it.

6. Oils and other films on your hands can stress fish, so limit the number of times you put your hands in the water.

Elevated Levels of Mercury Found in Fog

Coastal fogs may be delivering a large fraction of the mercury entering coastal ecosystems worldwide. In a recent report the first measurement ever reported from fog water, “(was) about five times the highest concentration ever seen in rainwater.” ©Sam Murfitt Photo

In horror movies, fog often provides creepy atmospherics, hiding threats from hideous creatures, bandits, ax murderers, and the like. Now, a new study suggests that fog can harbor real-life horrors. Researchers have found that coastal mists may carry toxic mercury that can harm ecosystems and human health.

Mercury pours into the atmosphere from coal-fired power plants and various industrial processes, including some used in refining ores and paper manufacturing. It’s a neurotoxin that isn’t easily excreted by organisms that ingest it, so it becomes increasingly concentrated in animals at higher levels of a food chain.

A well-absorbed form is monomethyl mercury, a positively-charged ion that readily binds with proteins and can be transported throughout the body, even across the blood-brain barrier into the brain and through the placenta into a developing fetus. Monomethyl mercury can impair neurological development in fetuses and young children, reducing memory, attention, and language and motor skills. In adults, exposure can impair peripheral vision, trigger a “pins and needles” feeling in the hands and feet, and lead to muscle weakness and a lack of coordination.

Most scientists presumed mercury deposited from the atmosphere came either from raindrops that had absorbed the element from the air or via “dry deposition” in which the vaporized atoms stick to or chemically react with an exposed surface, says Peter Weiss-Penzias, an atmospheric chemist at the University of California, Santa Cruz.

Now, field experiments conducted by Weiss-Penzias and his colleagues have identified another atmospheric source of mercury that’s likely to be substantial in some areas, especially along some coasts. At four locations in and around Monterey Bay, California, the researchers, using equipment that slurps up large quantities of air and retains any suspended particles, collected large volumes of fog droplets from June through August 2011.

In the 25 samples they analyzed, concentrations of all forms of mercury averaged 10.7 nanograms per liter, and levels of monomethyl mercury averaged 3.4 nanograms per liter, they reported last month in Geophysical Research Letters. The latter concentration, the first such measurement ever reported from fog water, “is about five times the highest concentration ever seen in rainwater,” Weiss-Penzias notes.

Using data from previous studies, including those of other teams, the researchers estimated that between 61 percent and 99 percent of the monomethyl mercury deposited in coastal ecosystems around Monterey Bay over the course of a year comes from fog.

The new findings don’t offer any ideas for minimizing mercury exposures in coastal environments, Weiss-Penzias says, but they do allow scientists to better understand how mercury may be making its way into those ecosystems.

Future experiments, he says, will include measuring mercury levels in creatures at the base of the food chain, such as insects that may be drinking mercury-tainted fog droplets that have condensed on coastal plants. “This is a very exciting piece of work,” says Mark Marvin-DiPasquale, a microbial ecologist with the U.S. Geological Survey in Menlo Park, California. The concentrations of monomethyl mercury the team measured “are way in excess of what anyone would have predicted,” he noted.

Some studies suggest that mercury also makes its way into the atmosphere over coastal waters when winds stimulate upwelling of waters from the sea floor, where sediment-dwelling microbes consuming mercury-tainted organic matter generate a compound called dimethyl mercury. When the contaminated waters reach the surface, the compound evaporates and is subsequently cleaved into several components, including monomethyl mercury, by chemical reactions driven by sunlight.

It’s not clear whether those reactions take place in the atmosphere or within fog droplets, Weiss-Penzias says, but in either case the monomethyl mercury ends up in the droplets, which can then be carried by winds to the coast.

“As the story goes, it’s a pretty neat one,” Marvin-DiPasquale says. And if the researchers are correct, he noted, other teams can readily develop models that estimate how much fog-delivered mercury is being deposited in coastal ecosystems elsewhere in the world. “This is probably not just a problem along the California coast.”

About Us

About Us

Mission Statement

Remain independent and locally owned
Provide SUPERIOR customer service
Be competitive in today's rapidly changing market
Offer high quality financial products
Maximize long-term shareholder value
Remain loyal to our staff and the COMMUNITIES we serve

Welcome to The Fisher National Bank Web Site. If you are already a client of FNB, I thank you for the opportunity to serve your financial needs and I hope you visit our site often.

The Fisher National Bank opened for business November 18, 1955 at a small office in downtown Fisher, IL. With numerous additions and renovations, this facility served our needs very nicely over the years. In the late 1990s, due to steady growth and the loyalty of our many clients, the board realized it was time to make another investment in the community. We purchased property at the corner of Third St. and Route 136 and started making plans to build a new facility. On September 25, 2000, we opened for business in our new 4000 sq ft facility at 102 E. Division, Fisher, IL. Two years later, on October 7, 2002, we opened our first branch inside a convenience store at 1005 Purnell Drive, Mahomet, IL. We quickly outgrew our space there and in late 2005, purchased property in Mahomet to build a full service branch facility. Located at 1501 E. Oak, this facility opened on June 26, 2006. As the years progressed and the bank continued to grow, we found a need in our area for an answer to our customer's desires of home ownership. In November 2012, FNB Mortgage Solutions was opened at the corner of Neil Street and St. Mary's Road in Champaign. While the lenders at this facility are able to do all types of loans, they will focus primarily on mortgage lending and work directly with customers and realtors to make purchasing a home a reality.

Since our inception, we have provided our community with the financial resources to grow and thrive. Being a community bank, we have the ability to be very responsive to our clients. Loan decisions are made right here and are made promptly. The officers and staff are not just employees, but are leaders of the communities we serve and demonstrate this regularly with their involvement and participation in numerous organizations and boards. Currently we have staff serving on the volunteer fire department, church boards, Lions Club, Athletic Booster Club, Sunday School teachers, Little League coach and other local community service organizations. I hope from this you can see that the bank is just a small part of what our staff does.

As President, I am very proud of our FNB family and I feel this is what separates us from the myriad of other financial institutions there are to choose from. We would be honored to have the opportunity to serve your financial needs. I can assure you, we will work diligently to earn your trust.

Again, thank you for visiting our site and please visit again.

Mike Estes - President

[quote=mfagerstrom;1088](2/22/2010) Update - I've started a new diet and it has helped me lose weight faster than I've seen in a long time. Down to 230 pounds now, which is 105 lost total.

You look amazing now .. Congrats on your weightloss .. You are looking totally different , guess ppl around you cant recognize you .. hats off to your hardwork .. its a pretty good number ..110 pounds in 7 months
Too bad I just found out about fitday, i am 219 pounds rite now.. I have already lost 17 pounds .. still need to lose somewhere between 55 - 100 pounds to get to a healthier scale .. i hate myself , i never took any pictures of mine recently as well due to this .. even though i dont used to eat large portions , but i have always been eating the wrong food which had high calories .. and pregnancy resulted in adding those 50 pounds in my scale ..
Your story is a motivation for me, i start believing that i can lose weight as well ..
i'm trying to watch my calories, i limit with 1400- 1700 calories per day ..
I have given myself 6 months to lose atleast 40 pounds ..
Thanks for sharing your success with us , it really makes us to believe "I can do it"
All the best for your future weightloss ..
[you have mentioned u are into a new diet , care to share? ]

Welcome Michael! YES you did post correctly- hoooray!

Sorry to hear about your recent break-up...i am impressed that you are finding the strength so quickly to make positive changes in your life. :) break up's are hard so i give you tons of props for not sitting at home sulking with my friends ben and jerry.

What is your diet plan? and work out plan?

i am assuming if the red bold print came up and told you to "SLOW DOWN" may be for good reasons, i am sure others will comment on this thread and give you some advice..

mecompco 01-06-2011 01:17 PM

Yes, what is your current weight and you goals?

FitDay warns about any weight loss goal over 2lbs. per week, which I always ignore.

For the record, 1 to 2 lbs. a week is generally the recommended "safe" rate of loss, and I do think it's a good idea not to lose "too" fast but what you ultimately decide upon is up to you.

Keep up the good work!

rpmcduff 01-06-2011 03:39 PM

The big problem with losing more than 2 pounds a week is the muscle that you will also lose. Sounds like you have addressed this with the protein and exercise. If you find you are losing strength (unable to perform the same number of reps with the same weight that you did previously) then you might want to consider slowing the weight loss to preserve muscle.

tandoorichicken 01-06-2011 07:28 PM

Hi Michael! I'm 25 and I lived in San Diego for around 5 years. When I started my journey to ditch my skinny-fat body for a more muscular one (a journey I am still on) I probably started out a lot like you. Don't hesitate to ask specific questions, there are a lot of helpful people here!

Good luck! :)

rpmcduff 01-07-2011 03:24 PM

Two more questions for you:
* How tall are you?
* What is your goal weight?

Since you said in your original post that you have always had a average body then (without seeing pictures) I would think you would be approaching or acheived your goal weight already? Maybe it is time to rethink your goals and strategy? After 30 days you will be nearing the end of the N00b period and gains in muscle strength and size will come slower. This is to be expected.

If you are wanting to continue your muscle development you might want to consider increasing your calories to at or near maintenance. Your weight loss will slow or stop but you can continue to lean out (decreasing body fat %) while building muscle.

tandoorichicken 01-07-2011 08:01 PM

Your estimates for the calories you are burning per workout are low because they don't take into account what's known as EPOC (excess post-exercise oxygen consumption), basically fancy pants for the calories you burn as your muscles are recovering from your workout. After a hard strength workout your muscles are depleted of glycogen, their primary fuel. This will raise your base metabolism by a lot and cause your body to burn up to around double the calories you first estimated for the workout. If you don't eat enough protein within a few hours after the workout, it's possible that your body is cannibalizing muscle from elsewhere in your body to feed and rebuild the muscle that was just trained, particularly if you have muscles that you haven't used in a week or so.

I'd suggest tack on another 200-300 calories a day to your eating plan, making sure to get at a minimum 1g of protein per lb of bodyweight, and eating as cleanly as possible to minimize fat gain. While you won't see the size come on as fast as you did at first, it will make a huge difference over time.

01gt4.6 01-08-2011 04:49 AM

welcome to the forums Michael. We have a good group of people that are willing to help and give good, solid advice. Enjoy your stay!

tandoorichicken 01-08-2011 05:24 AM

I lived just outside of La Jolla when I went to school there (UCSD '08). La Mesa has a nice little Mexican shack called Buenos Dias in California, you can get a nice potato burrito there. It was a little far from La Jolla but the burrito was worth the trip.

Wrt "toning," there is really no such thing. The effect you're going for is basically overall muscle gain and fat loss. The types of workouts you should consider are full body strength workouts, which will make you grow proportionally; if you feel you are getting too muscular you could simply backpedal on the load a bit and it will all even out. Muscle only lasts if you maintain it.

On a final note, muscle is heavier than fat, so as you start building more muscle, your weight loss might slow down or even reverse, even as you continue to physically get smaller.

Dear John and Doves

Hope this will brighten up the Christmas - The Advent of CHRIST

Christmas is a time for sharing GOD' S LOVE & GRACE to brothers and sisters

Link : http://godslittleacre.net/spiritualgrowth/a_message_from_heaven.html

Home : http://godslittleacre.net/spiritualgrowth/

I see the countless Christmas trees around the world below
With tiny lights, like heaven's stars, reflecting on the snow.
The sight is so spectacular, please wipe away that tear
For I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear
But the sounds of music can't compare with the Christmas choir up here.
I have no words to tell you, the joy their voices bring
For it is beyond description, to hear the angels sing.

I know how much you miss me, I see the pain inside your heart
But I am not so far away - we really aren't apart.
So be happy for me dear ones, you know I hold you dear
And be glad I'm spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I send you each a special gift from my heavenly home above
I send you each a memory of my undying love.
After all "Love" is the gift, more precious than pure gold
It was always most important in the stories Jesus told.

Please love and keep each other as my Father said to do
For I can't count the blessings or love He has for each of you.
So have a Merry Christmas and wipe away that tear
Remember I'm spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

There is no offseason in dynasty leagues. January and February are crucial times for reviewing and changing league rules in order to give teams enough time to adjust their rosters and draft strategy before the annual draft. Knowing what changes are coming with the 2012 Flea season is extremely helpful. What can we look forward to?

For example:

Will we see new player positions (e.g. DT, DE, CB, S, etc.)?

What will the rules concerning dual position players be like?

Are any new scoring options being added?

Will we see polls?

Are chatrooms coming?

Will roster sizes be increased?

I know that some things are still being worked on, and there is reluctance to say something is coming that may take awhile, but certainly there are things which you know will be available and can let us know about. Any info would be helpful, if possible.

BigDaddyT69 3 years ago

Will we have live chat this year? This is something our whole league wants! This is something that most of the other fantasy sites have. What are the plans here? Thanks.......

scotto1959 4 years ago

Individual idp slots are just as improtant as ind off slots.

scotto1959 4 years ago

if you guys ever get the celeb thing worked out. First things first!!

rangerdave 4 years ago

Agreed. This is one area where Flea is behind other sites. They will get us those slots eventually. I would just like to see them early enough in an offseason to prepare my leagues for that change.

FleaMod Admin 4 years ago

I agree. I'll see if our infrastructure can support it with our head programmer. If so, I'll try and separate them by: DT, DE, LB, CB ad S (I believe this is what you guys are asking for). Not something I'm sure we can support this year in a timely fashion, but I'd like to see it soon. Is this what you guys want?

rangerdave 4 years ago

Thanks, Hal. That's exactly what Scotto and I are looking to see changed.

FleaMod Admin 4 years ago

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the post.

Ori alluded to some of the changes we are working on for 2012 in his post here (I can see how it got hidden, so I'll try and re-post it where I can):

1) We'll review player position changes for the NFL and come out with our preliminary player rankings around the first week of February that include players that have moved too. To give you a heads up, I think the only players in our database that need to be moved are -- Erik Walden (LB), Ryan Kerrigan (LB), Mathias Kiwanuka (LB). If any other players come to your mind that may need changing, please let us know.

We will continue to update these on a case-by-case basis and if they are done before the NFL fantasy season opens for 2012 and drafts begin (62 days), some players may lose the grace period of having both positions like Kerrigan, Walden and Kiwanuka.

The rules for dual eligible players will be the same as last year.

Here is how we determine eligibility for the most part (it's a tricky thing, and we do our best): fleaflicker.com --

We hesitate to do much changing after the preseason starts, but may until the regular season. After the regular season, it's rare NFL guys will change -- e.g. we're glad we never changed Spiller to WR like some sites because he did not warrant that change and it made it unfair in many formats for him to have played WR late in the 2011 fantasy season -- on the other hand, we're glad we changed McCluster to RB/WR like we did during the second week of the NFL preseason because he surely warranted RB status.

2) Scoring options meaning Tackles For Loss, etc? If that's what you mean, let me know. It's possible we add some of these. It is on our agenda to review with our stats team. Do you have any suggestions for new scoring options? TFL come to mind here.

3) Polls and chat rooms are on our agenda, but we want to effectively incorporate them in a way where the site won't be cluttered and the Fleaflicker experience won't be compromised in any way. It's possible they get added, but only if we find a way to integrate and add them in an efficient manner. It is in our agenda, but not at the top; we like them, realize their important, but don't want to take away from the site's fast and easy-to-use experience.

rangerdave 4 years ago

Will we see IDP broken down into more than the three positions currently allowed for?

IDP roles for:

Connor Barwin

Mario Williams

Terrell Suggs

Rob Ninkovich

Michael Johnson

Elvis Dumervil

FleaMod Admin 4 years ago

Our staff is leaning towards pegging those dual players mentioned above at certain positions for 2012. If we do, they will be listed as follows:

Michael Johnson, DE; Ninkovic, LB; Barwin, LB; Mario Williams, LB; Elvis Dumervil, DE.

Again, I'm not sure as to what action we'll take officially. But I think it's time those players are moved to one position as they really are no longer hybrids anymore with their teams totally changing schemes.

FleaMod Admin 4 years ago

Suggs would really be the only guy out of your list still listed at DL/LB if we go through with the change. We will let you know more towards the end of January and beginning of February after MLB position eligibility and rules are taken care of.

rangerdave 3 years ago

It looks like you guys have updated all the dual position IDP. I don't see any IDP listed at two positions. Are dual position designations being done away with? Are these the actual 2012 designations, or will we see changes when the new season opens up in a few days?

FleaMod Admin 3 years ago

1) With the help of former employees of the NFL office that work in this department, by looking at film, statistics, how other sites list players and where they are lining up this year, IDPs are now listed at the position they will start in on defense -- in their current scheme.

So if you own James Harrison and he's a Steeler, he'll be a LB, though he lines up on the line plenty; same goes for Suggs at LB even if he does line up at DL in a 3-point stance, etc.

This is also in an effort to eventually move all players to DL, DT, LB, CB, DB (though that will most likely not be done this season and this season will be DL, LB and DB -- there's a slight chance we can filter them down even more, but no promises at all and it's unlikely to be implemented in 2012).

2) If a player/UFA signs with a team that runs a different scheme than they are listed at now (for instance Mario Williams signs with a 4-3 based defense), he will move to DL if that's his position with the new team for 2012. Any player that moves around after Week 2 of the preseason when most drafts are held will not be touched until the next season.

3) These are the actual 2012 designations. The change in 5 days is more or so to get your leagues rolling and new members in. It's not to roll out anything spectacular or grandiose. We roll those out when they are ready, not just when the season opens. With that said, be on the lookout for some cool new features soon.

We know this may negatively or positively affect some keeper leagues, but the change was necessary as many players were just listed at outdated positions.

FleaMod Admin 3 years ago

Also, it will be case-by-case basis as always (for example, McCluster stays at WR-RB); we have a separate team that deals with these scenarios from the NFL League Office (former employees there) on staff that aids us in this. I am not solely in charge.

flotsamnjetsam 3 years ago

I really hope that fleaflicker changes their IDP's from DB & DL to CB/S & DT/DE for 2013 (as mentioned above). I have a dynasty league here that made a rule change for 2013 where we're going to have to start 1CB & 1DT each week. We've hosted the league here since 2008, and we don't want to move!

FleaMod Admin 3 years ago

We'll have that incorporated in 2013 for sure. Thanks for your loyalty.

flotsamnjetsam 3 years ago

Awesome! Thanks Hal!

thriftyrocker 2 years ago

Hi Hal, any chance these IDP designations (CB, DT, etc.) still get added this year?

rangerdave 2 years ago

flotsamnjetsam 2 years ago

I read that other thread so thanks Hal & rangerdave! Our leagues situation was described above (new rule for 2013 where we need to start 1DT & 1CB each week), and some of our league members were wondering about this change on flea for 2013 since it hadn't been implemented yet (including thriftyrocker who posted above). I came here to ask about this, but thriftyrocker beat me to it. We really don't want to move the league to another site, so I'm happy to hear that this change will be implemented soon. Thanks again guys!

FleaMod Admin 2 years ago

Thanks for being a loyal user. It is a lot of work under the hood, but we realize the importance of it and we're diehards like you and will do our best to split the IDP guys up by the summer. We want it as well and are working on ways to get it done. Hopefully it will be feasible.

flotsamnjetsam 2 years ago

Any word on this change for 2013?

FleaMod Admin 2 years ago

It is something we will address after our new build and redesign (which will be awesome on all mobile devices especially) is out -- which will be soon. Splitting up IDPs are still high on our radar and we hope to have it in 2013.

flotsamnjetsam 2 years ago

Thanks for the reply Hal.

I'd really like to see the slow draft upgraded with a timer and an auto-pick feature once the timer runs out. I love the slow drafts, but would really like to be able to set a timer any where from 1 minute to 24 hours. :)

rangerdave 4 years ago

Actually, you should have more than a 24-hour maximum on the timer. There are a number of leagues that have 48 hour limits on picks.

Sidney1965 4 years ago

1 minute to 24 hours, 36, 48 or a week. Just a timer that we can set so that the draft will continue along if someone doesn't get in to make their pick. Fanball used to have a great email draft software. Trying to manually watch these drafts is a big pain in the ass... :)

p8n017 4 years ago

i think that there should be a rule for players who return kicks.. they should be pentalized for fumbling the ball and losing the ball

we had an instance this year where i actually won bc flea doesnt have this rule. i won by point 5. knocked a guy out of the playoffs. i would like to have this added please!!!

p8n017 3 years ago

anything new on this situation with players who return kicks?

Prash11 2 years ago

They do get penalized. Im my league I cant turn it off with out messing up another setting in the scoring. I have my owners pay attention because we do not count this against a kr or pr.

TheReaper2545 2 years ago

Unfortunately, I was looking forward to seeing Double headers discussed in this post. Should I take it that it won't be an option this year? Also if I was to try and manually do it could I change wins/losses and waivers each week during the year?

BTW love Ranger Dave's choice in avatar that is a great cd in a long line of great cds from Maiden.
