He will also serve as a member of the company’s management board. The announcement was made today by David Guillod and Lawrence Mestel, Founders and Co-CEOs of Primary Wave Entertainment. Gaspin will begin effective immediately and will be based out of the company’s Los Angeles office. Gaspin Media is a production and consulting company formed in 2012 by Jeff Gaspin.

As President of Primary Wave Entertainment, Gaspin will have input on all aspects of Primary Wave business operations and will lead the expansion of original content across television and digital platforms. Gaspin will oversee a diverse, combined television series portfolio of unscripted and scripted programming across multiple genres, including CeeLo Green’s “The Good Life” (TBS), “Being Mary Jane” (BET) starring Gabrielle Union, and the international hit series “The 100,” created by Bobby Moresco starring Michael Nyqvist. Gaspin will also develop and produce programming across multiple linear and non-linear platforms and he will oversee and pursue distribution opportunities for all multi-platform content across broadcast, mobile and emerging technologies.

Jeff is a skilled, innovative leader who will make a powerful impact on our business. As we continue to build momentum across our television and digital portfolios, it has become more important than ever to establish an effective operating structure for Primary Wave. We will continue to grow our executive ranks with key new hires as we pursue an ambitious expansion of our original content slate.”

My principal focus will be to build the company’s television and digital assets, which includes delivering world-class content to platforms across the globe. Since content, both traditional and digital, is in such high demand all over the world, I can’t think of a more exciting way to spend the next phase of my career.”

Eric Benét’s Self-Titled New Album In Stores Today Wed, 05 Oct 2016 20:35:56 +0000 eric-benet-album

On Tour With Anthony Hamilton and Lalah Hathaway This Month

Four-time Grammy-nominated R&B singer, Eric Benét released his self-titled, eighth studio album in North America today, a week before his 50th birthday. The 13-track album was recorded and produced in Los Angeles and includes a remix of the first single, “Sunshine.” The remix sees Eric reuniting with R&B sensation Tamia who was also featured on Eric’s #1 hit, “Spend My Life With You.” One of R&B’s premiere online platforms, You Know I Got Soul, describes the album as “a diverse collection of musical styles delivered with the confidence of a music vet. Benét is confident enough in his abilities to create an album on his terms – mature, soulful and true to his core sound.”

“I really wanted this album to be pure R&B, without any attempt to be anything other than completely authentic and creative,” said Benét. “For the first time in my career, I feel like it sums me up so well creatively, and I did it on my own terms and in my own time. So it seemed very appropriate to self-title the album. It confirms that I’m really about live instrumentation, many different influences, issues that are real and personal to me, and lyrics that are vulnerable and honest. I think my fans have come to expect that from me, and that’s definitely what this album is bringing.”

The singer will be performing songs off eric benét on his current tour with Anthony Hamilton
and Lalah Hathaway. The “What I’m Feelin'” tour kicked off on October 6 in Durham and will take them across the east coast hitting D.C., Baltimore, Detroit, Nashville, New Orleans and more, before wrapping in Richmond on October 30. All tour dates are listed below and tickets are now available via

"Not only that, but Epson considers the P800 a professional product and the P600 a consumer product, and it doesn't provide programming documentation for the P600 to third-party software and peripherals providers." Keyword: Professional. In 2007, after years of using 13 inch Epson printers, I bought a 17 inch 3800. I am still using it. I have never had an issue with it. Not. One. Problem. I have gone through several maintenance cartridges. I leave inks in the printer for months on end w/o use, and then come back and make a print. No clogs, no head cleaning, no problems. I used to fight with my 2400 regularly. I had a cleaning kit of q-tips & alcohol etc kept next to it, and had to clean and align the heads multiple times per year. The 3800, and indeed all of the Professional Epson printers, are built to a different standard. They just rock. Even if one does not need 17 inch width, the improvement in build quality (and lower ink cost) is worth it. Now that my printer has been replaced twice (3880 and P800) I have been waiting to buy a new P800. Not quite the right time, budget wise. Think I'll wait until next year... YEOUCH Mike! $300 rebate! Plus evidently an additional $50 rebate for current Epson owners. This is gonna hurt man, but click on through I will. The rebates end Sept. 30. YEOUCH.

Danny Amendola limited in practice

Danny Amendola AP

Rams receiver Danny Amendola is limited in practice as he continues to recover from a foot injury suffered on November 18.

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that Amendola has been doing individual work on the sideline in practice.

When healthy, Amendola has had some outstanding games this season, including a 15-catch, 160-yard day in a win over the Redskins and an 11-catch, 102-yard day in a tie against the 49ers. Unfortunately, Amendola has also missed all of four games, and been sidelined for parts of others, with injuries.

With Amendola hurt, Rams rookie receiver Chris Givens has stepped up with his two best games in the last two weeks: He had five catches for 115 yards two weeks ago and 11 catches for 92 yards last week.

    I hope Amendola doesn’t become another Danario Alexander, i.e. loads of talent and production when healthy but then can’t stay on the field. Donnie Avery is another one. He wasn’t ever an up and coming bright & shining star but he couldn’t stay healthy, got cut, and is now doing pretty well with the Colts. Rams seem to be cursed with some capable wide outs who can’t seem to stay healthy.

Josh Brown not traveling to London with Giants

EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ - SEPTEMBER 18:  Kicker Josh Brown #3 of the New York Giants kicks the game-winning field goal against the New Orleans Saints in the fourth quarter at MetLife Stadium on September 18, 2016 in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The New York Giants won 16-13.  (Photo by Al Bello/Getty Images) Getty Images

The Giants have announced that kicker Josh Brown will not accompany the team to London for Sunday’s game against the Rams.

The decision comes after the King County, Washington Sheriff released damning documents related to allegations of domestic violence against Brown by his former wife. Brown, who was arrested on related charges, was suspended one game by the NFL, which said Thursday that it is reopening their investigation because they say they were unaware of the information.

The Giants made a similar claim and cited the new information as the reason for leaving Brown in New Jersey. Brown remains on the roster and, per the statement, continue to support Brown.

“In light of the news reports regarding the documents released by the State of Washington yesterday, we think it makes sense to review this newly disclosed information and to revisit this issue following our trip to London. The Giants do not condone or excuse any form of domestic violence.  Josh has acknowledged that he has issues in his life and has been working on these issues through therapy and counseling for a long period of time. We remain supportive of Josh and his efforts.”

During a Thursday afternoon appearance on WFAN, Giants owner John Mara said it is “too early to tell” what the team will do regarding Brown’s spot on the roster. The Giants re-signed Brown this offseason and Mara said the team was comfortable with keeping Brown on the team “based on the information we had at the time.” Mara said during the interview that the information they had included NFL security moving Brown’s former wife to a different hotel room after an incident at the Pro Bowl this year and Brown’s own admission of abuse.

Steelers angry with Suh; Foster has strong words for Goodell

Miami Dolphins v Carolina Panthers Getty Images

The Steelers aren’t happy with what they feel was a dirty play in last week’s game by Dolphins defensive lineman Ndamukong Suh.

Per the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the Steelers have filed a formal complaint with the NFL and asked the league office to look into Suh intentionally kicking Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger in the fourth quarter. The report says Roethlisberger told teammates that Suh kicked him, and Steelers guard David DeCastro said the tape backed up his quarterback’s claim.

“I don’t know what [Suh] was thinking,” DeCastro said.

The conversation about Suh’s play and history got Steelers guard Ramon Foster talking about Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict, who’s been involved in dirty plays against the Steelers in the past and was back in the headlines this week for two plays in last week’s Bengals-Patriots game. Foster said the NFL is “absolutely not” doing enough to punish repeat offenders when it comes to player safety.

“[Burfict] has a known history,” Foster said. “[The Bengals] are going to say he’s getting targeted because of his history. But he’s getting new cases against him. What are [NFL Commissioner] Roger Goodell and [his staff] saying about player safety? They’re not saying anything about it. You have a known repeat offender getting a $75,000 fine when he has a $20 million contract. That [fine] doesn’t matter to him. You fine [Antonio Brown] more for freaking dancing in the end zone than you do when you know for sure that he tried to do that. His history showed he tried to do that.

“It just wasn’t the instances in that game…Roger Goodell really needs to come off his high horse and do something about that.”

Foster said he would “live” with Suh’s kick more than he would with plays Burfict has made over the last several seasons. Wednesday, Steelers running back DeAngelo Williams called Burfict “a danger to the game.”

“Burfict is trying to injure guys,” Foster said. “I still think his celebration on the tackle with Le’Veon Bell [last season] shows he’s trying to injure guys. It changed the whole complexion of that game. It’s on film. They see it. But Goodell doesn’t give a [darn] about that. He’s more worried about the ratings dropping and the owners fattening his pockets. He knows that type of attention brings more viewers for a Cincinnati game.”

NFL security moved Josh Brown’s ex-wife to new hotel room after Pro Bowl incident

The NFL and the Giants both said that they had no knowledge of the information included in the release of new documents by the King County, Washington Sheriff regarding Giants kicker Josh Brown’s history of domestic violence, but it appears that’s not quite true.

One of the pieces of information included in those documents, as reported by Ralph Vacchiano of, involved NFL security moving Brown’s ex-wife Molly from her hotel room at the 2016 Pro Bowl after an incident with the kicker. Per Molly Brown, she took the trip with her sons and the daughter she had with Brown while the couple was in the process of getting a divorce at her ex-husband’s request.

Once there, she said she was subjected to “cutting comments” and had her phone taken by Brown so he could search her texts before pounding on her door (they had separate rooms) while drunk until NFL and hotel security intervened. She said NFL security eventually moved her to a new room on the Friday night before the game, something that Albert Breer of confirmed with the league, and the family had no further incidents over the course of the weekend.

That information raises further questions about why the league cited “insufficient information” about the issues between Brown and his ex-wife when they opted to suspend Brown for one game earlier this year.

Brock Osweiler, DeAndre Hopkins land on Texans injury report

HOUSTON, TX - OCTOBER 16:  Brock Osweiler #17 of the Houston Texans warms up before playing the Indianapolis Colts at NRG Stadium on October 16, 2016 in Houston, Texas.  (Photo by Bob Levey/Getty Images) Getty Images

One of the lead storylines for Monday night’s game is Texans quarterback Brock Osweiler’s return to Denver to face the team he played for during his first four NFL seasons.

The Texans issued their first practice report ahead of that game on Thursday and Osweiler’s name is among the most notable on it. Osweiler is listed with a foot issue, although there doesn’t seem to be a high likelihood that he’ll miss the game as he is listed as a full participant.

Another name that catches the eye on the injury report is wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins. Hopkins is listed as limited with a hamstring injury, but there’s no word from Houston at this point to indicate that he’s in danger of missing the game.

The Texans are expected to get Will Fuller back in the lineup after he didn’t play in Week Six due to his own hamstring injury. Fuller was also limited in practice along with defensive end Jadeveon Clowney and right tackle Derek Newton.

Landry Jones has a great opportunity

In a league where, at the most important position, supply doesn’t match demand, Steelers quarterback Landry Jones now has an important opportunity, for anywhere from one to five games.

Jones, who appeared in five games last year with two starts, will be starting at least one game in his contract year. If he can play like he did when he replaced Mike Vick against the Cardinals a year ago, completing eight of 12 passes for 168 yards and two touchdowns in a 25-13 win, Jones could position himself for a chance to be a starter elsewhere next year.

Jones lost at Kansas City in his first start last year, a tough spot for any quarterback to thrive. For the years, he had three touchdowns and four interceptions, but an impressive per-attempt average of 9.3 yards.

He gets a chance to build on that starting Sunday against the Patriots, with possible future chances against the Ravens, Cowboys, Browns, and Colts. If he passes the eyeball test, he could be getting his fingers on plenty of cash come March.

Mike McCarthy: Injuries up, quality of play down due to lack of practice time

GREEN BAY, WI - SEPTEMBER 25:  Head coach Mike McCarthy of the Green Bay Packers walks off of the field after a win over the Detroit Lions at Lambeau Field on September 25, 2016 in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Packers defeated the Lions 34-27.  (Photo by Jonathan Daniel/Getty Images) Getty Images

On Wednesday, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said that he expected the reduction of practice time negotiated as part of the last Collective Bargaining Agreement will “undoubtedly” come up again during negotiations for the next CBA.

Count Packers coach Mike McCarthy among those who would like to see those reductions go away. McCarthy’s team has been hit by enough injuries that they ruled seven players out for Thursday night’s game against the Bears and he said that he believes the “outrageous” amount of injuries around the league are a result of the limits placed on practice time.

“I think it’s clearly a reflection of the training part of it. People don’t want to hear coaches say that, but how can you not be in tune to the fact you have a younger football league than pre-2011 and now you’re spending five less weeks with the players?” McCarthy said, via Mike Garafolo of NFL Media. “I mean, that’s not the best formula. I think it’s been proven since then.”

McCarthy also bemoaned the impact of less practice time on the quality of play around the league, a notion that Goodell rejected on Wednesday but has come up with other coaches since the new regulations were put in place in 2011.

As with anything in the CBA, negotiating a change would require the league to give the players something else they want in return for increasing the amount of time players spend with the team. That’s not an impossibility, but it will be up to owners to decide what’s worth giving up to put practice time back on the table.

Report: LeSean McCoy out this weekend

McCoy did not finish practice Wednesday, Oct. 19, 2016,  after hurting one of his hamstrings. Coach Rex Ryan said that McCoy was being evaluated by trainers. He didn't have any details about how McCoy was hurt and didn't know the severity of the injury.  (AP Photo/Bill Wippert, File) AP

Bills running back LeSean McCoy hurt his hamstring in Wednesday’s practice and didn’t take part in Thursday’s session, which appears to be a prelude to him missing Sunday’s game against the Dolphins.

Josina Anderson of ESPN reports that McCoy will not play this weekend. Anderson adds that McCoy could miss more time, which would put him at risk of missing Buffalo’s home game against the Patriots in Week Eight. The rate that McCoy heals would determine that, however, and that won’t be known until some point next week.

McCoy has a history of hamstring issues, something that will likely factor into the decision as the Bills would like to avoid aggravating the injury in a way that leads to an extended absence.

Mike Gillislee would likely step into the lead back role if McCoy can’t play. Reggie Bush and rookie Jonathan Williams are the other running backs on the Bills’ active roster.

Bears activate Pernell McPhee

The Bears have activated linebacker Pernell McPhee ahead of their Thursday night game in Green Bay.

McPhee had been on the team’s physically unable to perform list. He had missed the team’s offseason program and preseason while recovering from knee surgery, and the Bears kept him on PUP to start the regular season to give him extra time to heal.

McPhee, who’s probably the team’s best pass rusher, had six sacks and one interception last season, his first with the Bears.

Fullback Paul Lasike was waived to make room on the roster for McPhee.

Chip Kelly won’t be leaving the 49ers . . . voluntarily

BUFFALO, NY - OCTOBER 16:  Head coach Chip Kelly of the San Francisco 49ers watches his team warm up before the game against the Buffalo Bills at New Era Field on October 16, 2016 in Buffalo, New York.  (Photo by Tom Szczerbowski/Getty Images) Getty Images

Chip Kelly is not going to be the Oregon coach. Again.

In his first year with the 49ers after three-and-out in Philly, rumors of a return to college football already are percolating regarding Kelly, fueled by his 1-5 record. Meeting with reporters on Thursday, Kelly was asked whether he is committed to remaining in San Francisco.

“Unless the media has an opportunity for me somewhere, I’ll always explore those opportunities,” Kelly told reporters. “But, I’m not going anywhere.”

He may not be going anywhere, voluntarily. A full-blown free fall could, in theory, result in the 49ers making a change after only one season. It’s not nearly as uncommon a phenomenon as many believe; indeed, the 49ers did it only one year ago, firing Jim Tomsula after a single year on the job — and he won five games.

At a time when evidence of family discord has emerged and fans are still trying to figure out precisely how to hold Jed York accountable (beyond, you know, getting stuck “in traffic” — for three hours), York may feel compelled to press the reset button if 1-5 becomes anything worse that Tomsula’s 5-11, firing everyone and starting over again, rolling the dice in search of his own personal Bill Walsh.

So, yes, there’s a chance Chip Kelly will be back in the ranks of college football next year. Whether he wants to be or not.

It’s too late for the NFL to get it right with Josh Brown

FILE - In this Sept. 29, 2013, file photo, New York Giants kicker Josh Brown reacts after missing a field goal during the first half of an NFL football game against the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo. Brown admitted in journal entries and emails that he verbally and physically abused his wife, according to documents that were part of a domestic violence case obtained by SNY. Team spokesman Corry Rush declined comment Thursday morning, Oct. 20, 2016,  on the details that emerged from a case in Washington. Brown was arrested in May 2015 on a domestic violence allegation but no charges were filed against the 37-year-old player. (AP Photo/Charlie Riedel, File) AP

Once again, P.R. as in public relations for the NFL will trump P.R. as in player rights.

The league had its chance to develop any and all information that it could regarding the conduct of Giants kicker Josh Brown. The league failed to get the information that it needed in order to make a proper decision as to the discipline to be imposed on Brown, because the league couldn’t get Brown’s ex-wife or the relevant law-enforcement authorities to cooperate.

Instead of telling Josh Brown that the inability to get all the information about his conduct won’t count as a mitigating circumstance that reduces the standard six-game suspension for committing an act of domestic violence or that the NFL simply won’t allow him to play until Brown persuades his ex-wife and/or the authorities to provide the needed information, the league imposed a one-game suspension on Brown and closed the books.

Now, with the information the NFL failed to obtain regarding Brown’s misconduct obtained and published, the NFL apparently plans to do precisely what it tried to do to Ray Rice after the video the NFL should have obtained became available to the public: Punish Brown a second time for the same behavior.

This is no longer about whether Brown should have been suspended for more than one game; obviously, he should have been. This is now about whether the NFL can reach back and fix a mistake borne of negligence, incompetence, and/or extending a courtesy to an extremely influential owner by imposing a second penalty on Brown for the same misconduct.

Like the Ray Rice case, the league will likely argue that Brown lied during the original investigation. Unlike the Rice case, the league likely will argue that Brown is being punished not for the incident that occurred in May 2015 but for separate conduct described in the materials obtained by SNY.

Because the Josh Brown case won’t be generating the intense focus and criticism that the Ray Rice case did (which was exacerbated by the AP report that the league had the critical video before TMZ published it), Commissioner Roger Goodell most likely won’t be delegating his authority over the internal disciplinary process to a retired judge or any other independent party. Instead, buoyed by the federal appeals court decisions in litigation arising from suspensions imposed on Tom Brady and Adrian Peterson, the league office will do what it wants with Brown, stickhandling its way through the contours of the relevant precedent and engineering a way to take action against Brown.

The end result? The NFL will as a practical matter acquire the ability to punish a player twice for the same general misbehavior.

And if the Giants decide to cut Brown and not pay the balance of his salary, the Giants could face a grievance of their own, like the Ravens did when they cut Rice. The player may be in better position to get a fair shake on that one, since resolving it likely wouldn’t fall under the NFL’s authority.

Regardless, even though Brown never should have been re-signed by the Giants, the Giants knew or should have known all about his conduct before bringing him back. They shouldn’t be allowed to slide out of Hell’s Kitchen now that their potentially willful ignorance has been confirmed.

Bottom line? The NFL and the Giants had their chance to do the right thing. For whatever reason(s), they failed. It now would be unfair to Brown and all other players for the league and the Giants to say or do anything other than, “We blew it the first time, and we have no legal right to a second bite at the apple.”

Antonio Cromartie’s wife says anthem protest got him cut

INDIANAPOLIS, IN - SEPTEMBER 25:  Antonio Cromartie #31 of the Indianapolis Colts kneels and raises his fist during the National Anthem before the game against the San Diego Chargers at Lucas Oil Stadium on September 25, 2016 in Indianapolis, Indiana.  (Photo by Stacy Revere/Getty Images) Getty Images

Colts owner Jim Irsay said he disagrees with the players who are protesting the national anthem. The Colts cut cornerback Antonio Cromartie two weeks after he began kneeling during the national anthem. Cromartie’s wife says those two things are more than a coincidence.

Terricka Cromartie wrote on her private Instagram account that taking a knee during the anthem is what led to Antonio losing his job in Indianapolis.

“One things for sure I know my husband was told Not to take a Knee and he went with his heart and he took one. And that cost him his Job,” she wrote, according to the Indianapolis Star.

That may be Cromartie’s wife’s perception, but that doesn’t make it accurate. Cromartie played badly early in the season, and he was cut after an ugly game against the Jaguars that saw the Colts make several changes on defense that involved people who hadn’t knelt for the anthem, including cutting Sio Moore. The Colts also got two cornerbacks back from injuries around the time they cut Cromartie, which suggests that he was released because he no longer had a place on the defense.

Cromartie himself has not said whether he thinks his anthem protest was related to his departure from Indianapolis.

Carson Palmer working on side at Cardinals practice

Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer said that he left Monday night’s game against the Jets early because he was cramping after his exit was first attributed to a hamstring strain.

It’s starting to look like the initial explanation might have had some credence. Palmer was listed as a non-participant in practice on Wednesday due to a hamstring issue and Thursday is shaping up the same way.

Darren Urban of the team’s website reports that Palmer came out to the field without a helmet and is working on the side with a trainer. Urban adds that he doesn’t expect the team to provide much of an update on Palmer’s condition as coach Bruce Arians isn’t scheduled to address the media on Thursday and offensive coordinator Harold Goodwin, who will speak to reporters, doesn’t discuss injuries.

Whether through Arians’ comments or Palmer’s practice status, Friday should bring some more clarity about whether the hamstring will have any impact on the quarterback’s readiness for Sunday night’s game against the Seahawks.

No practice for Jordan Reed, DeSean Jackson Thursday

Tight end Jordan Reed kept his concussion under wraps in Week Five, which allowed him to finish playing against the Ravens before he missed last Sunday’s win over the Eagles.

It’s looking like Reed is going to miss another game for the Redskins this weekend. Reed was able to practice in a limited fashion on Wednesday while wearing a non-contact jersey, but he took a step in the other direction on Thursday.

Reed didn’t participate in practice at all, which isn’t the best of signs about his ability to get cleared through the league’s concussion protocol in time to face the Lions on Sunday. Vernon Davis would continue to see an expanded role in the event that Reed is out of the lineup.

Going without Reed would be a major blow to the Redskins passing game and it’s not the only injury concern on that front heading into the matchup with Detroit. Wide receiver DeSean Jackson missed a second straight day of practice with a shoulder injury, which makes it easier to be skeptical about his Wednesday vow of confidence that he’ll be on the field.

Packers officially place Lacy on IR, promote Don Jackson

Reports emerged on Thursday that Packers running back Eddie Lacy will have surgery on his ankle and miss at least the next eight weeks of the season while on injured reserve.

The Packers made it official later in the day. The team has announced that Lacy has been placed on injured reserve while he deals with his ankle injury.

Green Bay also announced that they have promoted running back Don Jackson from the practice squad, a move that’s been talked about as a possibility all week given Lacy’s injury and James Starks‘ knee surgery. Jackson signed as an undrafted free agent out of Nevada in May and didn’t play in the preseason because of an injury, which means his next snap will be his first one in an NFL game.

The Packers also traded for Knile Davis this week and they’ve used wide receivers Ty Montgomery and Randall Cobb out of the backfield.

NFL reopening Josh Brown case in light of new information

The release of new documents by the King County, Washington Sheriff regarding Giants kicker Josh Brown’s admissions of domestic violence had many people wondering why the NFL didn’t come up with a punishment more severe than a one-game suspension.

The NFL has joined the Giants, who re-signed Brown as a free agent and boasted they had done due diligence into Brown’s past, in saying that they were unaware of the existence of documents featuring Brown, who explained his arrest as one moment before evidence of more than 20 incidents came to light, admitting to abusing his then-wife and referring to her as “his slave.” The league issued a statement on Thursday saying that the release of these new documents will lead to Brown’s case being re-opened with the potential for further discipline.

NFL investigators made repeated attempts — both orally and in writing — to obtain any and all evidence and relevant information in this case from the King County Sheriff’s Office. Each of those requests was denied and the Sheriff’s Office declined to provide any of the requested information, which ultimately limited our ability to fully investigate this matter. We concluded our own investigation, more than a year after the initial incident, based on the facts and evidence available to us at the time and after making exhaustive attempts to obtain information in a timely fashion. It is unfortunate that we did not have the benefit or knowledge of these materials at the time.”

“In light of the release of these documents yesterday, we will thoroughly review the additional information and determine next steps in the context of the NFL Personal Conduct Policy. We will not be making any comments on potential discipline until that time.”

Given all that was already known about Brown’s behavior, including his ex-wife telling police about a letter he wrote to friends admitting abuse in a report that was previously available, there will still be questions about the initial response of the league and the Giants to Brown’s actions.

There may also be questions about why the Commissioner’s exempt list, used in the Greg Hardy and Adrian Peterson cases, wasn’t used as a way for Brown to be removed from the roster while still being paid and under investigation if the league was unsatisfied with the information available to them in their investigation.

Guillaume Benjamin Amand Duchenne (born September 17, 1806 in Boulogne; died September 15, 1875) was a French neurologist.

Duchenne de Boulogne 3

Guillaume-Benjamin Duchenne and assistant electrically stimulate the face of a live subject in displaying an expression.

Duchenne was educated at Douai and studied medicine in Paris before returning to his hometown to put his profession to practice in 1831. By 1833 he had begun trying electricity as a form of treatment on fishermen, a force that he continued to experiment with throughout the course of his life, in effect making him the father of electro-therapeutics. In 1842 he returned to Paris and there spent the remained of his life working on developing his clinical techniques. Through electricity he also determined that smiles resulting from true happiness not only utilize the muscles of the mouth but also those of the eyes. Such "genuine" smiles are called Duchenne smiles in his honor. He is also credited with the discovery of Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

Some of his other works include:

Duchenne effectively used the newly invented medium of photography to capture electrically induced expressions of his subjects, but wasn't able to record the actual movement of the facial muscles, a fact he complained about in his writings. Contemporary Dutch performance artist Arthur Elsenaar uses state of the art digital technology to remotely control the face of a live subject. In his performances and other works he investigates the computer-controlled human face as a medium for kinetic art and develops algorithms for facial choreography.

Nonlinear drillstring dynamics analysis

Germay, C and Van de Wouw, N and Nijmeijer, H and Sepulchre, R (2009) Nonlinear drillstring dynamics analysis. SIAM Journal on Applied Dynamical Systems, 8. pp. 527-553.

Full text not available from this repository.

This paper studies the dynamical response of a rotary drilling system with a drag bit, using a lumped parameter model that takes into consideration the axial and torsional vibration modes of the bit. These vibrations are coupled through a bit-rock interaction law. At the bit-rock interface, the cutting process introduces a state-dependent delay, while the frictional process is responsible for discontinuous right-hand sides in the equations governing the motion of the bit. This complex system is characterized by a fast axial dynamics compared to the slow torsional dynamics. A dimensionless formulation exhibits a large parameter in the axial equation, enabling a two-time-scales analysis that uses a combination of averaging methods and a singular perturbation approach. An approximate model of the decoupled axial dynamics permits us to derive a pseudoanalytical expression of the solution of the axial equation. Its averaged behavior influences the slow torsional dynamics by generating an apparent velocity weakening friction law that has been proposed empirically in earlier work. The analytical expression of the solution of the axial dynamics is used to derive an approximate analytical expression of the velocity weakening friction law related to the physical parameters of the system. This expression can be used to provide recommendations on the operating parameters and the drillstring or the bit design in order to reduce the amplitude of the torsional vibrations. Moreover, it is an appropriate candidate model to replace empirical friction laws encountered in torsional models used for control. © 2009 Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics.

Young Chinese public officials visit Korea for exchanges with municipalities

The Korea Herald

A delegation of young Chinese public officials is visiting South Korea at the invitation of the Korea Foundation to seek exchanges with South Korean municipal governments, the foundation said Tuesday.

The 177-member delegation, led by Wang Yunzhe, vice chief of the China-South Korea Friendship Association, arrived the previous day on an eight-day trip that will take them to the South Korean cities of Gwangmyeong and Daejeon.

The arrival of the group, comprising young public officials in Beijing and other Chinese cities, came after the foundation, affiliated with the South Korean Foreign Ministry, reached a deal in December with the Chinese People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries to expand youth exchanges.

During its stay in South Korea, the delegation will make a trip to the city of Gwangmyeong, just south of Seoul, to benchmark an exhibition of prehistoric cave drawings from France as a success case of turning an abandoned mine from the Japanese colonial era (1910-1945) into a tourist attraction a few years ago.

The Chinese public officials are also scheduled to hold a seminar with their counterparts in the central city of Daejeon to discuss ways to promote trade between the municipalities of the two neighboring countries.

The Korea Foundation is a leading organization of South Korea’s international exchange and public diplomacy initiatives.

orca5PUGET SOUND — A pod of orcas that often call the Puget Sound their summer home returned early Wednesday, reported.

According to the Orca locating site, the 27-member J Pod was spotted off the coast of Henry Island near Friday Harbor, Wash. The pod had been absent from the Puget Sound for about 70 days.

Part of a clan of Orcas known as the Southern Resident Killer Whales, the orcas are the only killer whale species listed under the Endangered Species Act. The pod is commonly referred to as the Orcas of the Salish Sea. Little is known about their range of movements during the winter months.

Magilton and Gorman Talking About QPR Prospects

For cutting-edge, continually-updated news about QPR: Visit the combination messageboard and quasi-blog: The QPR Report Messageboard. QPR and other football news; nostalgia; and posters' views: No focus on politics, films, music, etc. No ad-hominem attacks on fellow posters. Just an (usually) intelligent focus on QPR and Football

- 1976 Video: Stan Bowles Breaks an European Scoring Record vs FC Cologne

- Also: 1992/93 Video: QPR vs Manchester United and also Ryan Giggs goal vs QPR

- Bernie Ecclestone's Perspective of Flavio Briatore

BBC - QPR will play with style - Gorman
- QPR's new assistant manager John Gorman believes the club's fans will enjoy watching their team next season.
- The Scot has resumed his partnership with new Rangers boss Jim Magilton after they worked together at Ipswich.
- Gorman, 59, told BBC London 94.9: "I'm just so happy to get back into football so quickly and play the style of football that Jim and I want to play.
- "I'm sure that will suit the QPR fans because they do like to see good, quality football."
- Gorman, who was Glenn Hoddle's right-hand man when he managed England and has also had spells in charge of Swindon, Wycombe and Northampton, is impressed with the players at his disposal at Loftus Road.
- "It's a really good squad here. They might need a couple more players just to strengthen things but, generally, you look at the players and think that's a good squad and any club in the Championship would love to have it.
- "We will play a style of football that Jim played as a player and as a manager. We do pass the ball through the midfield and we like to create chances and get crosses in and I think the fans will enjoy it.
- "I've always been adamant about this, whatever team I go to. I know we want to win but we want to win with a bit of style and, even when I was manager of Wycombe, I proved that even in the lower levels you can play good football."
- Magilton was sacked after three years at Ipswich in April, just a few weeks after QPR sacked their previous manager Paulo Sousa but Gorman is not concerned about the high turnover of managers at at the West London club in recent times.
- "To be fair, I think have realised that [regularly changing managers] is not the way to go. I think they feel that's why they've got people in like us.

- "I'm hoping they give us the chance to really get on with the job. It's not going to be an easy job because everybody's expectations are very high but I really feel that they've said they'll give us a real chance to get our teeth into it." BBC

- Jim Magilton is hoping the opening fixtures of the Coca Cola Championship season prove kind to the R's, following the news that Rangers will face a 380-mile round journey to play Exeter City in the Carling Cup in early August.
- The all-important fixtures for the 2009/10 campaign are released at 10.00am tomorrow (Wednesday) morning and the R's gaffer is hoping for a home fixture on Saturday 8th August, with a long trip to the Grecians' St James Park home now penciled in just a few days later.
- "The fixture release day is when everyone really gets buzzing again for the season ahead - and I'm no different," beamed Magilton.
- "Of course, we'd love to start with a home fixture on day one. It would be great for myself and John (Gorman) to kick-start the campaign with a home match, in front of the QPR supporters who have been so supportive to us both in our short time here."
- However, the history books would suggest Magilton is due an away day fixture on the opening day of the new campaign.
- In his three year spell at Ipswich Town, the new R's boss was handed three home fixtures in a row between seasons 2006/07 and 2008/09, winning one and losing the other two.
- But whoever the R's get on the first day of the campaign, Magilton is confident his charges will be fired up for the season ahead.
- "The hard work really starts now for us," he said.
- "Once the fixtures come out on Wednesday, we can really start planning for the season ahead."
- Magilton added: "As a professional, I always kept an eye out for the fixture release day, because it's when you really start focusing your attentions towards the new season again.
- "It's always important to get off to a winning start. All eyes will be on us, but I love that pressure and if we can get off to a winning start, then that will be great."
- Magilton also touched upon the R's Carling Cup first round tie against Exeter, adding: "It's a good game for us.
- "I've known Paul (Tisdale) for quite a while, since our days at Southampton, when he was a very young midfielder.
- "He's a good man and a good Manager, who has got his side promoted two years in a row. He's very highly regarded and we're expecting a very tough game."

-New R's Assistant Manager John Gorman believes Rangers will have to be 'thoroughly committed and professional' when they travel to St James Park - the home of Exeter City - in the first round of this season's Carling Cup.
- Tuesday's draw pitted the R's against the League One outfit and Gorman is adamant Rangers won't be taking their lower league opposition lightly.
- Speaking exclusively to www.qpr.co.uk, Gorman said: "It's a tricky tie, but one we're more than capable of winning.
-"We'll need to be totally committed and professional to get the job done, and we'll be drumming that in to the players from day one of pre-season training."
- Exeter have enjoyed back-to-back promotions in recent years and there's one member of the Grecians set-up that Gorman knows particularly well.
- Former Tottenham Hotspur legend Steve Perryman MBE is the Director of Football at St James Park - and the R's number two is looking forward to locking horns with his old Spurs chum.
- "Steve's a close friend of mine, so it's a nice draw in that respect," he said.
- "It's been a while since I've been to St James Park, but it's a difficult place to go at any time." QPR

Eurosport - Yems relishing Rangers test
- Exeter assistant manager John Yems is looking forward to the newly-promoted Grecians' Carling Cup first round clash at home to Championship side QPR.
- Paul Tisdale's City side will play in League One next season following automatic promotion from League Two, a season after winning the Blue Square Premier play-off final at Wembley.
- Yems said: "It's a great draw for us, against one of the big Championship clubs."
- He added: "I think it shows the level we`ve come to that we can really look forward to a game like this and it's at home so it will be a real early-season treat for our fans.
- "I`m sure on the back of our back-to-back promotions, our fans will really be getting behind us on the night - I imagine the whole club is looking forward to it." Eurosport
