NFL Total Access features Steelers in '32 in 32' segment

NFL Network Shaun O'Hara doesn't see the Steelers as the Deebo of the division anymore. Donovan McNabb disagrees, to an extent.

Gone are James Harrison, Rashard Mendenhall, Mike Wallace and Keenan Lewis, says NFL Network.

Certainly not new news.

NFL Network analyst Shaun O'Hara at least gets sort of original, in suggesting much of the 2013 season will be on offensive coordinator Todd Haley.

"Dick LeBeau, he's walking into the meeting room with Mike Tomlin and Todd Haley, and he's saying, 'what more can I do?'" O'Hara said, illustrating his point that the Steelers offense needs to step up in 2013, citing a decline in big-play production from the unit coached by former offensive coordinator Bruce Arians to Haley's regime last season.

"The second thing is the run game," O'Hara continued. "It slipped down to 26th. They only averaged 96 yards per game. They've got to do a better job on offense."

O'Hara picked the Steelers to finish third in the AFC North, behind Baltimore and Cincinnati for the second consecutive year.

Former Eagles, Redskins and Vikings quarterback Donovan McNabb was a bit more optimistic on the Steelers' chances in 2013.

Citing the health history of quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, McNabb noted that concern, but pointed out Roethlisberger had the best third-down rating in the NFL before his injury in Week 10. McNabb also thought Roethlisberger tried to do too much when he returned from that injury.

McNabb picked the Bengals to win the division, the Steelers finishing second and the Ravens third.

"I think he and Todd Haley are going to sit down in training camp, get things hashed out, and I think they're going to explode throughout the season."

O'Hara didn't buy it.

"The Steelers are no longer Deebo," he said, referring to the character in the movie "Friday," after which the former Steeler Harrison was nicknamed. "They're no longer stealing that beach cruiser from the other teams of the division. They are all getting better."

Come the start of the season, we'll see who's bike it is. Punk.

Microsoft Announces New Hardware Certification Requirements for Windows 8.1

Microsoft has promised that Windows 8.1 would spawn a new wave of devices and to make sure that all new units are capable to provide a unique experience, the company is also working on a new set of hardware certification requirements for the OS update.

As noted by ZDNet, all certified Windows devices will need to be equipped with Bluetooth in case they already have Wi-Fi capabilities, while front-facing 720p webcams will be a must-have for devices with integrated displays, such as tablets and notebooks.

Higher-fidelity speakers and microphones are also required for certified Windows devices.

Microsoft is also said to prepare the second-generation Surface tablet, so all these requirements could be an indication that the upcoming tablet might actually be much more advanced when it comes to hardware.

Of course, no details are yet available, but sources claim that the new Surface should be here by October.

"not really gay" woman - The Lesbian Question

Lesbian sleeping with ?not really gay? woman

This post has already been read 46 times!

I am a lesbian, 43 and I am in love with a woman who describes herself as ?not really gay?. We have known each other for ten years. We have a strong emotional and spiritual bond. She has had heterosexual relationships most of her life: three long and intense sexual relationships with men.
She had her first lesbian encounter when she was 62 and it was with me, when I was 37. She has three daughters around my age. That summer, she abruptly ended the sex, leaving me feeling bereft, citing the age gap and not wanting to be in a relationship with me as she does not like the idea of being ?gay? or wanting to open up to a woman. She says her body tells her it is wrong for her. Yet, quite unexpectedly, when we were on holiday last summer, she woke me out of bed and asked if I would like to come into her bed for a cuddle. Well, sex was on offer and I fancy her so I jumped into her bed. So our friendship has remained ambiguous. Since then, we have slept together a few other times. She still has an issue about being in a gay relationship: she feels it is not natural to her. Everytime we have sex, she wakes up feeling depressed, saying that being with a woman is wrong for her and is not what she really wants and she says she can?t acknowledge me as her lover. And yet she keeps coming back. We keep being drawn to each other. We do not want to lose this. How to resist the sex that we want so strongly when it happens, but which makes us both miserable afterwards ? because she feels it is wrong for her and withdraws, making me feel sad. She thinks it?s a disaster: she wants me sometimes but it depresses her and it depresses me in turn. Does this sound hopeless?

California memorial to honor World War II 'comfort women'

The Glendale City Council has approved creation of a memorial for women who were used as sex slaves for Japanese soldiers during World War II.

Despite objections from Japanese-Americans, the council voted 4-1 on Tuesday to permit installation of the monument at Glendale Central Park honoring the so-called "comfort women" from Korea, China and other occupied nations.

A survivor of the ordeal was expected to attend the planned July 30 unveiling in the Los Angeles suburb, which has about 10,000 Korean-American residents.

The planned memorial - a statue of a girl seated next to an empty chair - is a replica of a monument installed across the street from the Japanese Embassy in Seoul, the Pasadena Star-News reported Tuesday.

The nonprofit Korean American Forum of California will fund and build it.

"I don't see this as designed to be a monument to shame Japan," Councilwoman Laura Friedman said. "What happened to those girls was a tragedy, and that's what this monument is about."

Historians believe that as many as 200,000 girls and women were forced into Japanese military brothels.

However, many Japanese and Japanese-Americans dispute the claims. Dozens of Japanese-Americans spoke against the monument at the council meeting.

The memorial would "bring out hate crimes and conflict," said Yoshi Miyake, 60, a massage therapist from Los Angeles. "Comfort ladies were nothing more than prostitutes."

Glendale officials also received hundreds of angry emails, mostly from Japan, that called the women willing prostitutes, the Los Angeles Times (http://lat.ms/13OgmQv) reported Wednesday.

Council members disputed that view.

"A 14-year-old girl doesn't voluntarily leave her village in Korea to go serve the Japanese army, give me a break," Councilman Frank Quintero said.

Other critics have claimed the girls were sold by their parents, went willingly to help their families, or were coerced by Korean pimps rather than by Japanese, the Times said.

Proposed memorials in New Jersey, New York and Singapore faced similar organized opposition.

The Japanese government issued a formal apology in 1993 for the treatment of the women, saying they "suffered immeasurable pain and incurable physical and psychological wounds."

The government's official position is the women's story "should not be politicized or be turned into a diplomatic issue," Takehiko Wajima, a spokesman for the Consulate General of Japan in Los Angeles, told the Times.

The mayor of Osaka - Japan's second-largest city - sparked an uproar and U.S. condemnation in May when he said the use of the women was necessary for military discipline and providing rest for troops.

Toru Hashimoto later sought to clarify his comments, saying he meant military authorities during that time must have deemed the practice necessary. Hashimoto also said he may have lacked "international sensitivity."

NBA free agency 2013: Bobcats may ship out Gerald Henderson

Talks on a long-term contract between Gerald Henderson and the Charlotte Bobcats have stalled and the team is now exploring sign-and-trade options for the restricted free-agent wing, Yahoo! Sports reported Wednesday night.

Yahoo! reported that the Bobcats are talking with multiple teams, though no specific teams were mentioned.

Henderson, 25, just completed his fourth pro season, all with the Bobcats. The Duke product averaged a career-high 15.5 points as he alternated between shooting guard and small forward. His 3-point shooting jumped dramatically to a career-best 33.0 percent.

Also Wednesday, the Charlotte Observer reported that the team waived forward Tyrus Thomas under the NBA's amnesty provision. The $18 million owed Thomas over the next two seasons will no longer count toward the team's cap. The Bobcats also officially signed free-agent center Al Jefferson and first-round draft pick Cody Zeller.
