Betting on NFL - ATS O/U SU NFL - sports betting as a hobby ...

Still waiting on a line for PIT @BAL game, but I don't think the number will make me change my mind

11/29 8:25 PM

301 NO 56 *
302 ATL -3? under

ATL should get the season split, but I'll take the pts w/Brees & Co.

12/02 1:00 PM
339 SEA 37? *
340 CHI -4 UNDER

SEA should've won last week SEA on the road has a losing record
CHI is banged up
I think this will be another close 3pt game

12/02 1:00 PM
341 MIN 46? *
342 GB -9 under

numbers seems really large when you consider GB K has missed nearly half of his FG attempts (last 15) and GB OL has issues

12/02 1:00 PM
343 SF -7 *
344 STL 40 over

It's probably safer to take the pts, but STL has lost last 2 games @home (GB 10pts & NYJ 14pts)

12/02 1:00 PM
345 ARI 36? UNDER
346 NYJ -4? *****

could be a laugher...

12/02 1:00 PM
347 CAR -3 **
348 KC 40? over

CAR DT Edwards IR OFY
KC expected to be w/o S Lewis and ST McCluster

12/02 1:00 PM
349 IND 51 over
350 DET -4? ***

IND has to prove it can win on the road, I think IND will split vs NFC North and be 2-2
wins vs MIN and GB, loss to CHI

12/02 1:00 PM
351 JAC 44? **
352 BUF -6 OVER

TOTAL IS TOO LOW

12/02 1:00 PM
353 NE -7? *
354 MIA 51 under

NE will most likely sweep MIA, I'm just not sure about the cover

12/02 1:00 PM
355 HOU -5? OVER
356 TEN 47 *

HOU banged up @LB
TEN new OC Loggains
OC is an unknown quantity, thus a stay away game

12/02 4:05 PM
357 TB 50? UNDER
358 DEN -7 *

Really tempted to take TB, but last week vs ATL was an emo game

12/02 4:25 PM
359 PIT UNDER
360 BAL ***

PIT banged up @OL, RB, D

12/02 4:25 PM
361 CLE 45 UNDER
362 OAK -1 *

CLE QB McCoy expected to start
this game is hard to pick, CLE could win w/just running game, but will they?

12/02 4:25 PM
363 CIN -1? **
364 SD 46? UNDER

SD last week was the last hurrah

12/02 8:30 PM
365 PHI 43 UNDER
366 DAL -9 ***

PHI NO SKILL PLAYERS.....
PHI cut starting DE, desperate move AGAIN!

12/03 8:40 PM
367 NYG -2? OVER
368 WAS 51 *

NYG no pep talk this week
WAS gains the season split

How to Avoid a Clogged Bathtub Drain

How to Avoid a Clogged Bathtub DrainWe've shown you how to unclog a stopped drain, but why solve the problem when you can stop it before it starts? Keeping water flowing through your drain is actually pretty easy with a tiny bit of monthly maintenance.

Preventing drain clogs involves very little work. Instead of spending excessive time and effort whenever the thing gets backed up, you just exert a fraction of that effort on a monthly (or, in more extreme situations, bi-monthly) basis. For many people, that effort is nothing more than pouring a gallon of hot/boiling water down your drain. This helps loosen and hair or gunk clogging the main pathway and push down. After you do this, be sure to run regular warm water for about five minutes just to continue pushing everything as far down and out as you can get it.

If that doesn't work, chances are you produce a lot of hair and that hair is long. This is where a hair catcher comes in. For about $5-10 you get a little device that sits in your drain and catches hair and gunk. Gross, yes, but you just empty it once or twice a month and your drain will never clog.

Unfortunately there isn't any way to send everything that goes down the drain into another dimension and magically solve the problem, but if you employ these two tips you'll at least avoid the problem.

Backed By $500K From Battery Ventures, Science Inc.?s Fresh Dish Launches Ready-To-Cook Dinner Kits Delivered To Your Door

FD_LOGOFresh Dish, a new food delivery startup incubated by Science and backed by $500,000 in seed funding from Battery Ventures, is today launching its online ordering website, soon to be followed by an iOS application. Unlike restaurant delivery services, Fresh Dish isn't about ordering ready-to-eat meals from local?eateries, but rather ready-to-cook meals which can be prepared in under 30 minutes.

S.Africa's Adcock FY profit down, lags consensus

JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - South Africa's No.2 drug maker, Adcock Ingram Holdings Ltd, reported a worse-than-expected 9 percent fall in full-year earnings, hit by the loss of high-margin drugs and unfavourable currency swings.

Adcock said diluted headline earnings per share totalled 422 cents in the year to end-September, from 465 cents a year earlier.

The results fell short of the 430 cents forecast by StarMine's SmartEstimate, which gives more weight to forecasts from top rated analysts.

Headline EPS, the main profit gauge in South Africa, excludes certain one-time items.

The company said sales were largely flat at 4.6 billion rand, but it raised its final dividend by 8 percent to 115 cents per share.

Adcock has been struggling in recent months after losing three drugs that contributed as much as 200 million rand in sales due to safety reasons while the weaker rand and lower consumer demand added to the headwinds.

Shares in Adcock are down nearly 12 percent so far this year, far behind its closest rival Aspen Pharmacare, which has surged more than 60 percent.

Saudi Arabian Men Now Get Text Alerts When Their Women Leave the Country

In Saudi Arabia, if a woman leaves the country, her husband or male "guardian" will receive a text message to let him know that, even if she's traveling with him, ho boy! His woman is on the loose. Saudi Arabia: where technology and misogyny unite! More »

Sieve holds nanoparticles and acts as solar absorber

ScienceDaily (Nov. 26, 2012) ? A membrane consisting of polymer fibres and proteins makes a novel filter for tiny, nano-scaled particles in aqueous solutions. The result of this research, which was done by Professor Mady Elbahri and his team from the Institute of Material Science at Kiel University (KU) and the Institute of Polymer Research at Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht (HZG), has recently been published as the cover article in the current issue of Advanced Functional Materials.

A nanofluid, which means a colloidal suspension of e.g. metal nanoparticles in water, passes easily through commonly used macroporous polymeric membranes. The particles are too small to be held using hole diameters between three and four micrometers. In addition, the particles would block smaller sieve openings rapidly. Hence, pressure would be necessary to filter out the fluid.

In order to solve these problems, Elbahri and his team biofunctionalized their membrane and added a commercially available protein to the fibres. "We found out that the protein undergoes a conformational change under water, and its ability to capture all the metal nanoparticles during the filtration process is activated," explains Elbahri. "This is a breakthrough," adds Co-author Dr. Shahin Homaeigohar. "The same principle will hopefully enable us, to filter biomolecules and organisms out of waste water."

From Filtration to solar thermal energy

When the nano sieve captures metal particles such as gold, another application is at hand, because, no other method has succeeded in dispersing the particles that well. "This result was unexpected," says Elbahri. "Under dry conditions, the membrane shows the color of the metal, in this case the red of the gold nanoparticles." When the membrane gets wet, it becomes black. "Then, it acts as an omnidirectional perfect black absorber, which can be used as a solar absorber." Elbahri adds: "Indeed we bridge the gaps between several disciplines, chemistry, physics, bioscience and materials science that is, and the Nanochemistry and Nanoengineering group has now initiated the first step toward intradisciplinarity of Nanoscience."

Application as a virus and bio-filter

The nano sieve will allow filtering very small particles or biomolecules and organisms such as viruses out of water. The scientists involved have already patented their innovation, a bio-nano-composite, in Europe. Another patent for the USA is . Besides its application in water filtration, the nano sieve shows great potentials as solar absorber and as a catalyser. "All in all, the result is a breakthrough towards the design of an operative filtration process, as a new route for the fabrication of functional materials, and offers commercially attractive efficiencies at a low cost," says Elbahri.
