Mick Vicks Gets The Start For Week 3


One day after calling his quarterback quandary "a beautiful situation," Philadelphia Eagles coach Andy Reid made a surprising reversal: Michael Vick, not Kevin Kolb, will be the starting quarterback, the team announced Tuesday.
Fantasy take
Eagles coach Andy Reid not only made the right decision Tuesday, but he did fantasy enthusiasts a solid by moving to Michael Vick before wire claims. More ...
Reid, who said Monday that Kolb was the starter, was scheduled to explain his reason for the switch during a 6:30 p.m. ET Tuesday conference call with reporters. However, a league source told NFL Network insider Michael Lombardi that the decision to go with Vick wasn't related to Kolb's health. Kolb has missed the last six quarters because of a concussion.
Lombardi reported that Kolb is cleared to play, but Vick has performed too well. Vick's second start will come Sunday on the road against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Vick threw for 175 yards and one touchdown and ran for 103 yards in relief of Kolb during a 27-20 season-opening loss to the Green Bay Packers. Vick had 284 passing yards and two TDs in his first start, a 35-32 victory at Detroit on Sunday.
Kolb started two games in his first three seasons before he became the Eagles' No. 1 quarterback after Donovan McNabb was traded to the Washington Redskins. Kolb struggled in the first half against Green Bay.

AT&T to deliver LTE in mid-2011, LTE iPhone maybe?

AT&T to deliver LTE in mid-2011, LTE iPhone maybe?

A bit late to the party, but at least not the last, AT&T have announced that they will be rolling out 4G LTE coverage beginning mid-2011. With Sprint currently being the only carrier to offer 4G (WiMax, not LTE) in the United States, AT&T has finally caught caught on and isn't planning to let them monopolize the 4G wireless market. The first city to get AT&T 4G will be Dallas, Texas. And from there they will spread out and hope to cover 70-75 million by the end of 2011. Looks like the 4G business is starting to get serious.


As you probably know by now, "mid-year" is usually when a new iPhone gets released, so it won't take much to speculate that a new LTE-powered iPhone might just appear by then. LTE might just be part of the AT&T's solution to its clogged network. By switching new iPhone users to LTE, AT&T would make their experience that much better while the network still has a surplus capacity. For Apple, it's an obvious phone evolution that's an easy sell.

BYOC (Bring Your Own Container)


Coming soon to American grocery stores are fill-your-own wine machines. The machines carry anywhere between 500- 1,000 liters each and all you do is supply the container. By reducing the amount of packaging needed to contain and transport wine, there's a substantial savings that's able to be passed along to the consumer. Plus, it means you can take your adult beverage home in a container that actually fits in your fridge, in the amount you want!

The machines contain red, white and rose wines and should run around $2/liter. They work the same way a self-service gas pump does, just swipe your card at the machine, fill your container and it prints you a receipt. It's as easy as that!

We like the idea of being able to fill up any size container, big or small for a party or just a night at home. You could take home just enough for two glasses for dinner or enough for a whole crowd, the choice is yours! Plus, when all is said and done, there's no extra trash piling up in your garbage or need for additional recycling measures.
