The hard luck of Roscoe Parrish continues.
The Buffalo Bills' diminutive wide receiver is dealing with a left ankle injury suffered in Sunday's 38-35 victory over the Oakland Raiders.
Bills coach Chan Gailey said Monday the injury is "more long term than short term, unfortunately.
Gailey said Parrish would undergo more tests later this week to determine the exact severity of the injury, but that it's possible it could be season ending.
"Let's see how the reports go," Gailey said. "He's supposed to see some more people later this week and I hope that's an outside chance [going on injured reserve]. But you can never say never."
Parrish missed the second half of last season after breaking his wrist. He is certain to be out Sunday for the team's showdown with the New England Patriots, but that's not the only injury concern the Bills are dealing with at receiver.
Receiver Stevie Johnson's nagging groin injury was clearly bothering him Monday, as he walked gingerly through the locker room.
"I can feel it when I walk now," Johnson said. "Last week, I didn't feel it when I walked, only when I got out on the field, but now it [the pain] is just there."
Johnson doesn't expect to miss any games.
"Right now I feel like it's something I'm going to have to play through," he said "… When I'm out there, it'll hurt, but I'll still be giving it my all."
Johnson was also in and out of the lineup on the Bills' final drive against the Raiders, but he attributed that more to cramping in his legs.

Knoxville — Representatives in the House are expected to return to their districts on Friday, three days after returning to Washington, D.C., on Tuesday. This decision does not sit well with Rep. Dave Loebsack.
Loebsack was in Knoxville Monday to tour Weiler and to meet with the Mayor's Youth Council. Prior to his visit to Weiler, Loebsack told the Journal-Express that he disagrees with Speaker John Boehner's decision to send Congress home for the weekend, at a time the US Senate is remaining in session.
Loebsack does not think that everything the House needs to address will get done this week, including several tax extensions. According to Loebsack, the Chair of the committee in charge of getting the extensions through has refused to move them forward without comprehensive tax reform. This is unlikely to get done this week.
As for his trip to Weiler, Loebsack said it was his first visit to the facility since its 100,000 square foot expansion. He planned to receive an update on employment figures, how the space is being used and seeing how the economic conditions are affecting the business.

An apparent career criminal with a 14-page "rap sheet" who was probably casing a Barrington business earlier in the day for a break-in was arrested early Friday morning, Dec. 7, by police officers on routine patrol.
"There is no doubt these officers prevented a smash and grab," said Barrington Police Chief John LaCross of a possible breaking and entering of a local store.
James R. Radler, 50, with a last known address of East Boston but who was staying at a Ramada Inn in Middletown, was stopped while driving on County Road near the RIPTA park and ride at about 3:30 am by Patrol Officer Walter Larson, said LaCross. There was no light over the license plate.
"It was a great stop," said the police chief.
Larson immediately called for backup and Patrol Officer Mark Haddigan went to the scene.
Radler was discovered to be wearing black sweat pants over jeans and a Navy blue sweatshirt over a shirt during a pat down, LaCross said. He was carrying an expired Vermont driver's license and an Idaho identification card. He seemed nervous and jittery.
The officers also soon noticed a battering ram topped with a towel in the backseat and other typical burglary tools -- a mallet, pliers, ski mask and gloves -- in the vehicle. A towel would blunt the sound when the battering ram hit a door, LaCross said. And it would leave no marks.
A check with the national crime database revealed that Radler had an outstanding warrant in Washington state from 2007 for forgery. He also was released from an Idaho prison last spring, LaCross said.
Radler's arrest record shows a history of convictions for robbery, forgery, larceny, bank fraud, stealing a car, and being a fugitive from justice that dates back many years. He also has used a variety of aliases over the years.
"He has a huge criminal record," said LaCross.
A further investigation indicates that Radler was identified as a man who had entered a Barrington store earlier in the day, probably to case the place, LaCross said. He appeared very suspicious to the store owner.
Radler claimed he was in Barrington early Friday morning after visiting a woman friend in Warren, LaCross said, although he never gave officers a name.
Police seized the burglary tools and the 2010 Volkswagen Jetta he was driving as evidence. He was taken to the police station and charged with possession of burglary tools and driving without a license.
Radler was taken to District Court on Friday morning to face the Barrington charges. He could not make the $5,000 bail with surety or $500 and remains locked up in the ACI.
Washington state will not extradite him on the warrant, LaCross said.

Sounds like a wonderful diabetic recipe to me. it's refreshing to find a recipe that is not loaded with sugar! I will try this with blueberry ice cream and blueberries, on a smaller scale--perhaps with half the ingrediants. I only need servings for one or two. Thanks for the nice sounding recipe.

A Frankfort pediatrician acquitted of charges he groped a Joliet woman in his office more than 10 years ago has been smacked with a lawsuit alleging he pulled the same stunt on another woman in 2011.
The lawsuit claims Dr. Kishor Jain touched the mother of one of his patients "in a sexual fashion" and caused the woman "shock and horror."
The woman had taken her child to Jain's office in the Hedges Clinic in August 2011 when he suddenly "grabbed (her) breasts with both of his hands while she was talking to him about her child."
Jain said he remembers the woman, identified in the lawsuit as Jessica Schubbe, 29, of Manteno, but denies ever molesting her.
"The accusation is completely false," Jain said. "The person has other problems and she's using this as an excuse. It's very sad it's come to this, but it's absolutely untrue."
Jain also said it was untrue when a then 21-year-old Joliet woman told the Frankfort police that Jain groped her breasts and rubbed her thighs and between her legs in December 2001. He also allegedly tried to unzip her pants.
The woman had been a patient of Jain's when she was a girl, police said.
The woman, Brenda Doyle, had taken her 9-month-old son to Jain for a checkup, but the doctor quickly turned the conversation to the woman's sex life, how often she has sex, whether she enjoys it and if she watches "dirty movies," according to a police report.
Jain later explained to a Frankfort detective that Doyle started the sex talk when she told him she "does not feel any sensation in her breasts," a police report said.
The report went on to say Jain told the detective that Doyle informed him "she is not currently on any contraceptive and has not been sexually active for several months. She had a lack of interest and satisfaction with it and it didn't stimulate her."
And that was supposedly why Jain examined her breasts, back and abdomen. In the report, Jain said Doyle "did not display any discomfort" and that the "examination was very brief and was intended to help Brenda with her problem."
Jain was arrested in January 2002 on misdemeanor battery charges stemming from his alleged assault on Doyle. The case was handed off to the Illinois Attorney General's Office after it was determined a staffer in the Will County State's Attorney's office had a relative who had been treated by a physician at the Hedges Clinic.
Jain was found not guilty. The case was later expunged.
After Jain's arrest, another Joliet woman contacted the Frankfort police and told them a nearly identical story. The woman, Adrianna Pena, then 23, told police she had taken her son to Dr. Jain for a checkup in 1999.
When the checkup was finished, Jain told Pena to get on a scale so he could check her weight, according to a police report.
"After I weighed myself I got off the scale and he touched my chest and my behind and after that I moved right away," Pena told police.
Pena said her mother called the clinic to complain. A nurse said she would call her back but never did. Pena then went to a Joliet lawyer about suing Jain. The lawyer "told Pena that a civil suit was not his area of specialty and if he referred the case to someone it would end up being the doctor's word against hers," a police report said.
"Pena was still very upset at what had happened to her but was concerned that nobody would believe her so she did not pursue the matter," the report said.
Seven years before that, an Orland Hills woman told the Frankfort police Jain quizzed her on her sex life, fondled her genitals and penetrated her with his finger. He also fondled her breasts, the woman said.
The Orland Hills woman, Sharri Szelag, was 23 at the time. She went to Jain to be treated for abdominal pain and bloating.
In 2002, two more women, Robin Mendoza and Kerry Tadej, sued Jain. Mendoza and Tadej claimed Jain "fondled and touched (their) breasts and vagina."
The lawsuit says Mendoza took her son to see Jain in January 2001 and that Tadej was treated by the doctor in October 2001. Records show the case was settled out of court in May 2007.
Jain was sued two other times, in 1982 and 1990, but the court files are not available in the circuit clerk's office and the nature of the suits was not known.
The state's attorney's office passed yet another criminal investigation of Jain off to a special prosecutor in 2011. Once again, the special prosecutor was brought in after it was determined a staffer at the state's attorney's office patronized the Hedges Clinic.
The special prosecutor's office identified the investigation as a criminal sexual abuse case.
Frankfort Deputy Police Chief Kevin Keegan said his department took a report about an alleged instance of criminal sexual abuse on Aug. 19, 2011—one day after Schubbe claimed Jain molested her—and that the matter was investigated.
Keegan says the case remains open and that his detectives are still waiting to hear back from the special prosecutor.
"The ball's in their court," Keegan said.
Staff at the Special Prosecution Unit of the Illinois State's Attorneys Appellate Prosecutor's office said special prosecutor Charles Colburn was handling the case and that a request for comment would be forwarded to him. Colburn has yet to respond.
According to the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation, Jain has not been disciplined at all in the last five years.

|Bell Cord Couloir to Traverse
Date Climbed: Jun 30, 2014
|Camped at Crater Lake the night before, left at 5:30am and got to the top of the Bell Cord Couloir by 9am (its a long climb, especially with no warm up). We did South Maroon Peak first (very easy from the saddle) and then did North Maroon (not as easy). Most of it seemed class 3+ with a few in your face class 5 moves. Awesome traverse though! Going down North Maroon was interesting. That was probably the hardest part of the day and the most worrisome part as well. There was a bunch of snow on the standard route so finding our way down was a little interesting at times.

Traverse was exciting. One of the best ridge climbs I've done to date!!

|Started out from the TH @ 5.16 with Faith & Rich. The closer one gets the more reasonable the route (SE ridge; standard) looks. Summited 11.31; :58 from the traverse/bottom of the 2nd gully to the summit. Summited @ 11.31. Clouds all over but none too threatening. Left summit @ 12.33. Down by 17.31. Tremendous views, esp. of Maroon (duh), & Capitol & Snowmass. Loved the way the route went from hiking to steep hiking to scrambling to the steepest climbing on the ridge crest to the summit- classic! Wonderful day on an extremely enjoyable route on a classic peak. Missed you at the summit, bro- there will be others!

|A long and very difficult climb! Ranked or not, this is a challenging climb worthy of any serious mountaineer. We waited out a passing storm, making a 14-hour day. No route description can do justice to the complexity of this mountain.

Open Source for the Space Age
NASA has started a rather ambitious project: to provide open-source everything. The main site is located at http://open.nasa.gov. From here, there is access to data, code and applications, among other things. This is a great launching point for anyone interested in space science and NASA work. In this article, I look at what kind of code is being made available that you might want to explore.
The available software covers several genres. Some are low-level, systems-layer software. You can go ahead and do some really long-distance transfers with the Interplanetary Overlay Network (ION). This is an implementation of the Delay-Tolerant Networking architecture (DTN) as described in RFC 4838. This software is physically hosted at SourceForge, and you can use this code to communicate with your next interplanetary probe.
A bit more down to earth is a middleware package that actually is hosted by the Apache Foundation. You can download and use the Object-Oriented Data Technology (OODT) middleware. OODT is component-based, so you can pick and choose which parts you want to use. There are components to handle transparent access to distributed resources, data discovery and query optimization, and distributed processing. There are also components to handle work-flow and resource management. Groups that are using it include the Children's Hospital of Los Angeles and NASA's Planetary Data System. If you're managing data systems, this might be worth taking a look at.
Getting back to actual science processing, you might want to download the Data Productivity Toolkit (DPT). This package is a collection of command-line tools, written in Python, that lets you work on text data files. These utilities follow the UNIX design method of having small utilities that do one task well, and then chaining them together to do more complicated processing. There are tools for massaging and manipulating your data, tools for doing statistics on that data and even tools for visualizing the data and the results. Many of the tools even provide an API to basic Python and numpy/scipy/matplotlib routines.
And, while I'm talking about Python and science, you also can look at SunPy. SunPy aims to provide a library of routines that are useful in studying solar physics. With it, you can query the Virtual Solar Observatory (VSO) and grab data that you can process. Many routines are available that allow you to plot this data using various color maps and processing filters. There is a Sun object that contains physical constants useful in solar physics, along with the sun's position and numerous other solar attributes.
A lot of the computational work done at NASA involves clusters of machines and massively parallel code. This means the NASA folks have needed to put together lots of tools to manage these machines. They also have been nice enough to release a lot of this code for public consumption. The first of these is multil (Multi-Threaded Multi-Node Utilities). In the standard GNU file tools, cp and md5sum operate as a single-threaded process on a single machine. The multil tools provide drop-in replacements called mcp and msum. These utilities use multithreading to make sure each node is kept as busy as possible. Read and write parallelism allows for individual operations of a single copy to be interleaved through asynchronous I/O. Split file processing allows for different threads to operate on different portions of a file in parallel.
NASA also provides a utility to give SSH access to your cluster. There is a middleware utility called mesh (Middleware Using Existing SSH Hosts) that provides single sign-on capability. Mesh sits on top of SSH, and instead of using the local authorized_keys file, loads a file for a dedicated server at runtime. Mesh also has its own shell (called mash) that restricts what applications are available to the user. Using this system, you can add and remove SSH hosts that are available to be used dynamically. Also, because the authentication is handled by a library that is preloaded when SSH first starts up, the restrictions are sure to be enforced on the user.
Now that you have a connection mechanism, you may need to handle load balancing across all of these machines. Again, NASA comes to your aid. It has a software package called ballast (Balancing Load Across Systems) that might help. This package handles load balancing for SSH connections specifically. Each available host runs a ballast client, and there are one or more ballast servers. The servers maintain system load information gathered from the clients and use it to make decisions about where to send SSH connection requests. Because all of this is handled over SSH, the policy deciding which host to connect to also can take into account the user name. This way, you can have policies that are specific to each user. This lets you better tune the best options for each user, rather than trying to find a common policy that everyone is forced to use.
Going back to doing science, another important task is visualization, and NASA has released several tools to help. The first one I look at here is World Wind. This is an Earth visualization system. You can use it to get a 3-D look at Earth and to see data projected onto the globe. It is a Java application, so it works on any desktop that has a Java virtual machine, as well as in most browsers. It is a full development kit, and it has several example applications that you can use as jumping-off points for your own code.
Taking visualization further from the surface of the Earth, there is ViSBARD (Visual System for Browsing, Analysis and Retrieval of Data). This application allows you to pull data from multiple satellites and display them concurrently. It also allows for 3-D viewing of all of this data. This type of vector field information is very difficult to analyze in 2-D plots, hence the need for this kind of tool. The latest version also allows you to visualize MHD (Magneto-Hydro-Dynamic) models. This way, you can compare results from model calculations to actual satellite measurements.
More extensive image processing can be done with the Vision Workbench. This is an application and a full library of imaging and computer vision algorithms. It isn't meant to be a complete, cutting-edge library though. Rather, it provides solid implementations of standard algorithms you can use as starting points in developing your own algorithms.
When you're ready to go and launch your own satellite, you can download and use the Core Flight Executive (cFE). This software is used as the basis for flight data systems and instrumentation. It is written in C and based on OSAL (Operating System Abstraction Layer). It has an executive, along with time and event services. You can track your satellite with the ODTBX (Orbit Determination Toolbox). The ODTBX package handles orbit determination analysis and early mission analysis. It's available as both MATLAB code and Java.
The last piece of code I cover here is S4PM (Simple, Scalable, Script-based Science Processor for Measurements). This actually is used at the Goddard Earth Sciences Data and Information Services Center to do data processing. It is built up out of a processing engine, a toolkit and a graphical monitor. S4PM allows a single person to manage hundreds of jobs simultaneously. It also is designed to be relatively easy to set up new processing strings.
The open-source project at NASA doesn't cover only code. NASA has been releasing data as well. The Kepler Project is looking for exo-planets. As I mentioned previously, you can download data from the Solar Dynamics Observatory. You can work on climate data by checking out information from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission. You can look up tons of data from the various moon missions, from Apollo on up. There also is data from the various planetary missions. Climate data and measurements of Earth are available too.
I've touched on only a few of the items NASA has provided for the public. Hopefully, you have seen enough to go and check out the rest in more detail. There is a lot of science that regular citizens can do, and NASA is doing its part to try to put the tools into your hands.
Joey Bernard has a background in both physics and computer science. This serves him well in his day job as a computational research consultant at the University of New Brunswick. He also teaches computational physics and parallel programming.

Good post! Still can read in such a good article. I hope we can see better articles. I will continue to focus on the author's work.
don't use the NASA Open Source Agreement
"The NASA Open Source Agreement, version 1.3, is not a free software license because it includes a provision requiring changes to be your "original creation". Free software development depends on combining code from third parties, and the NASA license doesn't permit this.
We urge you not to use this license. In addition, if you are a United States citizen, please write to NASA and call for the use of a truly free software license."

By changing the approach with which one runs the business, cost cutting can be achieved. There are many business models that suit every industry. One has to choose the appropriate business model. However, one also needs to be careful while doing so. If the right decision is not made, things can be worst. Changing the business model is a crucial decision, and the necessary steps should be taken without hastening.
This is the open-source ERA.
Keep sharing the ideas and knowledge

Sounds great to check out for earthlingz too.. Because most business object systems are based on systems found in human body chemistry. And why not distributed intergallactic (great term) too!
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

Saab 9-7X Lease Questions
saablcp Posts: 195The least expensive 2008 9-7X has an M.S.R.P. of $41,145.00... (4.2i V-6 ,no options)Your offered price of $28,255.00 is almost $13,000.00 off list price!!!!!! So maybe the "STEAL" you are looking for is best achieved by going into your local Saab dealer with a ski mask and a sawed off shotgun.
CarMan@Edmunds Posts: 38,515You're very welcome, Amy. Employee Pricing (including the deduction of all available cash incentives) is a very good deal...and it's probably as good as it is going to get on the 9-7X right now. You never mentioned how long a loan you want, but 5.19% is an outstanding interest rate for a conventional loan through an independent bank.
Your leased 9-7X certainly is not worth its official purchase option price. It is difficult to say whether GMAC will be willing to work with you on its end of term purchase price. The only way to find out for certain is to give them a call. Sometimes lessees who have no luck with their initial contact at a bank are able to get better results by working their way up the ladder to a manager. Give it a shot, you don't have anything to lose by asking.

2012 Fantasy Football Rankings: Running Backs 21-40
These 2012 Fantasy Football Running Backs Rankings will be updated often throughout the summer, so make sure you check back from time to time. Also, be sure to check out my other 2012 Fantasy Football articles, which will include sleepers, busts, tons of 2012 Fantasy Football mock drafts and other material. Follow me @walterfootball for updates.
2012 Fantasy Football Rankings - Running Backs (Sept. 3):
Top 10 | 11-20 | 21-40 | 41-60
- Michael Turner, RB, Falcons. Bye: 7.
AUG. 17 UPDATE: The good news for Michael Turner was that he caught three balls for 14 yards against the Bengals. The bad news is that he looked incredibly slow. He has no more burst left whatsoever. He's still good in short yardage, but it's a waste whenever he touches the ball otherwise. Turner finished with minus-3 yards on three carries. He's still a decent RB2 because of his touchdown opportunities, but he's going way too early in fantasy mock drafts. Go here to see the most recent 2012 Fantasy Football Mock Draft.
Michael Turner really struggled down the stretch. He averaged more than 3.6 yards per carry in only one of his final seven games, and that came against a Buccaneer team that just gave up. Turner will still score touchdowns, and his offensive line has improved via the 2012 NFL Draft, but head coach Mike Smith said that Turner will have a more limited role this season. Jacquizz Rodgers will eat into his touches.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 950 rushing yards. 10 catches. 40 receiving yards. 10 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 159.
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 169.
- Darren Sproles, RB, Saints. Bye: 6.
Darren Sproles is a PPR monster. He amazingly had nearly as many receptions (86) as carries (87) last year. There's no reason to think that will change, especially with Robert Meachem gone. It's also worth noting that Sproles has missed only one game since 2007, so he's durable despite his small frame.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 530 rushing yards. 85 catches. 690 receiving yards. 6 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 158.
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 243.
- Stevan Ridley, RB, Patriots. Bye: 9.
AUG. 25 UPDATE: Stevan Ridley drew the start at Tampa Bay and was on the field for the first two possessions before giving way to Shane Vereen on the third drive. Vereen suffered an injury, however, so Ridley received most of the carries after that. Almost on cue, Ridley had a 30-yard burst a couple of plays after Vereen got hurt. It's hard to trust Bill Belichick will running backs, but Ridley deserves a huge stock up because Vereen can now be labeled unreliable because he constantly has health issues. Oh, and it doesn't hurt that Ridley ran really well (16 carries, 87 yards, one touchdown).
AUG. 21 UPDATE: Shane Vereen started alongside Mallett in the backfield against the Eagles. Vereen played the entire first half, gaining just 20 yards on 10 carries. He did, however, catch four balls for 29 more yards, thanks to an effective 20-yard screen. What's really noteworthy is that Vereen was utilized well ahead of Stevan Ridley, who was relegated to reserve duties in the second half. Ridley gained 25 yards on 10 tries.
AUG. 11 UPDATE: Stevan Ridley handled all of the first-team reps in the preseason opener. He ran really well, though it helped that he had terrific blocking in front of him. He rushed for 40 yards on eight carries. He didn't receive any goal-line opportunities, but only because the Patriots weren't in a position to score a close touchdown when he was on the field. He'll likely assume BenJarvus Green-Ellis' role as the goal-line hammer.
JULY 26 UPDATE: It's a great sign for Stevan Ridley that the Patriots decided to cut Joseph Addai. Bill Belichick must have confidence in his young running backs to make that move. Ridley is expected to receive at least half of New England's rushing attempts in 2012.
In a perfect world, Stevan Ridley would get the majority of the carries in New England and would become a solid fantasy RB2. In this world, however, Bill Belichick doesn't trust young players, preferring washed-up athletes like Joseph Addai, Sammy Morris and Fred Taylor instead. Ridley is worth drafting somewhere in the middle rounds, but don't get too frustrated if he doesn't get enough carries.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 860 rushing yards. 24 catches. 180 receiving yards. 9 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 158.
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 182.
- BenJarvus Green-Ellis, RB, Bengals. Bye: 8.
AUG. 11 UPDATE: BenJarvus Green-Ellis rushed for 22 yards on seven carries in the preseason opener. He's getting an up arrow for two reasons. First, he was the only back on the field with the first unit. And second, he was utilized on third down, catching a pass over the middle for a gain of 18 yards.
It amazes me that the Bengals didn't draft a running back early in the 2012 NFL Draft. BenJarvus Green-Ellis will handle the workload, but he won't be able to do much with it. Two positive notes: Green-Ellis has a nose for the end zone, so he'll at least score close to 10 touchdowns again. Also, Marvin Lewis talked to the media about Law Firm possibly being a three-down back, so he might not be completely inept in PPR leagues.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 950 rushing yards. 23 catches. 150 receiving yards. 8 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 158.
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 181.
- DeAngelo Williams, RB, Panthers. Bye: 6.
AUG. 27 UPDATE: DeAngelo Williams struggled against the Jets. He rushed for 28 yards on seven carries, but fumbled twice. He also dropped a pass. Despite this, he's getting a stock up because Jonathan Stewart suffered an ankle injury. Stewart's ankle twisted scarily when he was tackled by LaRon Landry. He then had to be carted into the locker room. X-rays were negative, but I suspect that Stewart will be out for several weeks. Williams has suddenly become an intriguing fantasy RB3 option.
DeAngelo Williams is part of a committee. He's injury-prone. He doesn't catch many passes. Oh, and he had just two carries inside the opponents' 5-yard line last year. There are plenty of reasons to hate him as a fantasy player, but there is upside - if Johnathan Stewart gets hurt, Williams will be a big producer.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 980 rushing yards. 25 catches. 230 receiving yards. 6 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 157.
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 182.
- Mark Ingram, RB, Saints. Bye: 6.
AUG. 6 UPDATE: Mark Ingram ran really well in the Hall of Fame Game, gaining 14 yards on four carries. More importantly, he was used twice inside the 5-yard line, scoring from the 1. He's been going way too low in fantasy mock drafts - click the link to see a bunch of them - so try to target him around Round 6. He won't get too many carries because of Pierre Thomas and Darren Sproles, but it appears as though he'll be New Orleans' goal-line hammer. He could hit double-digit touchdowns.
AUG. 3 UPDATE: Mark Ingram is finally healthy. He's been practicing fully in training camp. Everyone is down on Ingram because he barely played last year, but he'll get the majority of the carries (especially those near the goal line) as long as he's not on the injury report. He's a nice value pick.
JULY 29 UPDATE: Mark Ingram had major injury problems in 2011, but he's completely healthy and has been a full participant in training camp. He's going really late right now compared to his average draft position last summer, so he provides great value in the middle rounds.
Mark Ingram had a knee scope recently. Knee scopes normally aren't a big deal, but Ingram fell in the 2012 NFL Draft because of knee concerns. He could once again spend most of the season on the injury report, which is a shame because he's really talented. I'd take a chance on Ingram in the middle rounds because of his upside.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 900 rushing yards. 13 catches. 80 receiving yards. 8 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 152 (157).
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 165 (170).
- Rashard Jennings, RB, Jaguars. Bye: 6.
SEPT. 3 UPDATE: So much for Adam Schefter's report that Maurice Jones-Drew's holdout will last into the season. Rashad Jennings' ADP will plummet, but that's a good thing because it'll allow you to pick him up in the 10th round or so. Jones-Drew is bound to get hurt because players who hold out usually struggle with performance and/or durability.
AUG. 22 UPDATE: If you drafted Rashad Jennings late in your league, congratulations. You've hit the jackpot. Maurice Jones-Drew will either hold out into the regular season or be traded to another team. Jennings has suddenly become a legitimate RB2.
AUG. 12 UPDATE: Maurice Jones-Drew is still holding out, which allowed Rashad Jennings to start against the Giants. He impressed, rushing for 56 yards on 12 carries. He didn't score, but he received touches inside New York's 5-yard line. Jones-Drew will eventually end his holdout, but Jennings is worth drafting late because he'll produce if given the chance.
Here's how little the Jaguars think of Rashad Jennings: He suffered a minor knee injury prior to the season opener (he was cleared by mid-October) but they placed him on injured reserve right away. Still, he's Maurice Jones-Drew's backup, so he's worth noting just in case there's an injury to the starter.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 700 rushing yards. 23 catches. 190 receiving yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 157.
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 190.
- Ben Tate, RB, Texans. Bye: 8.
Ben Tate is more talented than Arian Foster as a pure runner, so Gary Kubiak won't be able to keep him on the bench for too long. Expect Tate's touches to rise this year. He's definitely worth a mid-round flier, given his immense upside.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 940 rushing yards. 20 catches. 160 receiving yards. 6 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 146 (156).
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 166 (176).
- Peyton Hillis, RB, Chiefs. Bye: 7.
AUG. 12 UPDATE: Peyton Hillis played a big part in the Kansas City offense during the first two drives of the preseason opener. He rushed for 41 yards on four attempts and also caught an 11-yard touchdown. Thomas Jones and Jamaal Charles split carries evenly two years ago, and it appears as though Hillis and Charles will have a 50-50 share of touches this season. Hillis definitely deserves a stock up.
Peyton Hillis' NFL journey has been quite bizarre. He helped many fantasy players win their league in 2010, won the Madden cover competition in 2011, and now he's just a goal-line back in 2012. Perhaps he'll be able to fulfill his dreams of becoming a CIA agent in 2013.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 880 rushing yards. 28 catches. 220 receiving yards. 9 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 155.
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 183.
- Reggie Bush, RB, Dolphins. Bye: 7.
It's time to sell high on Reggie Bush. The former No. 2 overall pick has had major problems staying healthy throughout his career, but was able to do just that in his first year with the Dolphins last season, in which he rushed for a personal-best 1,086 rushing yards to go along with 296 receiving yards. It's highly unlikely that Bush will be able to stay on the field, so he'll probably be overdrafted.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 750 rushing yards. 40 catches. 280 receiving yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 133 (153).
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 173 (193).
- Shonn Greene, RB, Jets. Bye: 9.
Shonn Greene has been given plenty of opportunities, but has never lived up to expectations. He was supposed to emerge as a potential fantasy RB1 last year, but never did. His 253 carries went for just 1,054 yards, and he scored only six touchdowns. He might not even get as many scores this year because Tim Tebow will likely command the goal-line work.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 1,000 rushing yards. 25 catches. 160 receiving yards. 6 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 152.
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 177.
- Chris Wells, RB, Cardinals. Bye: 10.
JULY 26 UPDATE: Chris Wells has opened training camp on the active/PUP list because of his knee. Wells has sworn that he'll be ready for Week 1, but his track record makes it difficult to believe him.
I liked Chris Wells as a sleeper last year and he actually exceeded my projected numbers for him. However, there's some concern because he always seems to be banged up. Ryan Williams is coming back from injury, so if Williams is hobbled, Ken Whisenhunt won't hesitate to give his younger running back some of Wells' workload.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 910 rushing yards. 12 catches. 70 receiving yards. 8 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 146.
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 158.
- Donald Brown, RB, Colts. Bye: 4.
AUG. 26 UPDATE: Donald Brown rushed for eight yards on seven carries. His offensive line could not open up any holes for him. This is going to be a theme all season. It's also worth noting that tight end Dwayne Allen converted a short-yardage carry when he lined up at fullback.
AUG. 13 UPDATE: Donald Brown was the recipient of Andrew Luck's 63-yard touchdown in the preseason opener. He had just two carries for two yards (one was a 5-yard loss in which the offensive line was blown up), but none of the other running backs stood out, so Brown should be able to keep his job.
Donald Brown is the favorite to lead the Colts in carries, but only because of his seniority. He's not a very good player, and could be easily unseated by Delone Carter or Vick Ballard if either happens to impress.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 830 rushing yards. 34 catches. 270 receiving yards. 6 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 145.
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 179.
- Mikel Leshoure, RB, Lions. Bye: 5.
AUG. 31 UPDATE: The big news for Detroit is that Mikel Leshoure started and ran really well in the preseason finale. He gained 43 yards and a touchdown on 15 carries to go along with a 33-yard reception. He made multiple defenders miss throughout the evening. One of the Detroit broadcasters even commented, "I didn't know Leshoure had this type of quickness." Leshoure is suspended for the first two weeks of the season, but he's a mega sleeper - the No. 1 guy on my 20 Fantasy Football Sleepers of 2012 - usually available in Round 10 or later. He's the favorite to start beginning in October.
AUG. 26 UPDATE: Mikel Leshoure actually saw most of the first-half action at Oakland, rushing five times but for only one yard and catching a pass for six receiving yards. The numbers stink, but it's still encouraging that he was actually able to suit up and take some hits. And besides, Leshoure's meager 0.2 YPC still dwarfed the injured Kevin Smith's zero (3 carries, 0 yards).
JULY 31 UPDATE: Mikel Leshoure injured his hamstring Saturday. Hamstring problems don't sound serious, but they're the maladies that linger, especially when an overconfident player tries to return to action too early. Leshoure, who is also recovering from a torn Achilles, probably won't be on the field that much in the first half of this year.
Mikel Leshoure is coming back from a torn Achilles, which is usually a 2-year injury. He also didn't help himself by getting arrested for marijuana, meaning he could be suspended. He's clearly not taking his career seriously, so I wouldn't touch him in any fantasy draft.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 760 rushing yards. 17 catches. 120 receiving yards. 6 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 124 (144).
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 141 (161).
- David Wilson, RB, Giants. Bye: 11.
AUG. 25 UPDATE: Starting for Ahmad Bradshaw, who was out with a hand contusion, David Wilson rushed for 49 yards on five carries, but even those numbers don't do him justice. He showed great quickness and tackle-breaking ability on runs of 20 and 15 on the second drive. He later caught a pass and took it for 29 yards. Wilson is not going to take over Bradshaw's job this year (barring an injury) because Tom Coughlin is not going to trust him to pass protect, but it's looking like Wilson will definitely take a good chunk of Bradshaw's workload.
AUG. 19 UPDATE: D.J. Ware curiously replaced a seemingly injured Ahmad Bradshaw in the first half. David Wilson didn't see any action until the second half. Ware was awful - he had 15 yards on 11 carries - but it's still a bit troubling that Wilson didn't serve as the No. 2 back. Wilson tallied 14 yards on five attempts.
AUG. 12 UPDATE: David Wilson had a good showing in his debut. He rushed for 43 yards on seven carries, headlined by a 26-yard burst up the middle, thanks to outstanding blocking. Wilson broke some tackles on numerous touches, which includes his two catches for 26 receiving yards. Wilson is a good handcuff to own because of Ahmad Bradshaw's durability issues.
It'll take an injury to Ahmad Bradshaw for David Wilson to see much action despite the fact that he was a first-round pick in the 2012 NFL Draft. Bradshaw is injury-prone, so Wilson is worth drafting late.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 760 rushing yards. 21 catches. 170 receiving yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 123 (143).
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 153 (173).
- C.J. Spiller, RB, Bills. Bye: 8.
JUNE 10 UPDATE: Those who believe C.J. Spiller is a legitimate threat to steal half of Fred Jackson's workload got some validation last week, as Chan Gailey raved about Spiller's improved blocking. Jackson will still be the No. 1 back, but it appears as though Spiller will definitely eat into his touches.
General manager Buddy Nix said that C.J. Spiller could become a workhorse back capable of carrying the ball 20-25 times every week if needed to. Unfortunately for Spiller, he'll be playing behind Fred Jackson yet again. He's worth drafting because he'll post RB2 numbers if Jackson gets hurt again.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 650 rushing yards. 33 catches. 250 receiving yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 120 (140).
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 153 (173).
- Isaac Redman, RB, Steelers. Bye: 4.
AUG. 26 UPDATE: Though he looked slow and sluggish, it was nice to see Isaac Redman on the field. He rushed for 24 yards and a touchdown on 12 carries at Buffalo. He suffered an injury in the first quarter, but came back on the field later. He's still projected to start while Rashard Mendenhall is out, so he's worth drafting around Rounds 8-10.
AUG. 18 UPDATE: And another running back bites the dust. Isaac Redman has suffered multiple injuries, prompting the Steelers to prematurely activate Rashard Mendenhall off the PUP list. This means they could push Mendenhall to return sooner than anticipated. Redman's stock obviously takes a major hit in the wake of this news.
The Steelers didn't draft a real running back, which says they're confident in Isaac Redman's ability to handle the bulk of the carries until Rashard Mendenhall returns from injury. Redman showed well in relief of Mendenhall last year, rushing for 121 yards on 17 carries in a playoff loss to Denver.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 750 rushing yards. 23 catches. 140 receiving yards. 6 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 125 (140).
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 148 (163).
- Kevin Smith, RB, Lions. Bye: 5.
AUG. 26 UPDATE: Kevin Smith suffered an injury to his right ankle in the third quarter - the same body part that kept him out of several games last year. X-rays were negative, but this is still a huge concern, especially considering that Mikel Leshoure played well ahead of him in this contest.
AUG. 16 UPDATE: Jahvid Best is likely to open the season on the PUP list, per Adam Schefter. Mikel Leshoure, coming off an injury of his own, has been suspended for two games. Kevin Smith, who looked great in the exhibition opener versus Cleveland, will start for Detroit.
AUG. 12 UPDATE: Make sure you get Kevin Smith on your fantasy roster. With Jahvid Best still suffering through concussion symptoms and Mikel Leshoure suspended, Smith will start for the Lions in the early part of the season. He looked great against the Browns, making nice cut-backs and displaying great shiftiness. Of course, it helped that he had outstanding run blocking in front of him, allowing him to rush for 28 yards on five carries.
JULY 31 UPDATE: Jahvid Best has yet to be cleared to practice. Mikel Leshoure, who just injured his hamstring, is suspended for the first two games. Kevin Smith will likely start the opener, so he's a great sleeper in the middle rounds.
Jahvid Best is always hurt, while Mikel Leshoure is coming off an injury and an arrest, so that could once again open the door for Kevin Smith. The problem is that he tends to get banged up as well. Still, Silent Bob is worth a late-round gamble.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 620 rushing yards. 28 catches. 230 receiving yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 120 (140).
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 148 (168).
- Jonathan Stewart, RB, Panthers. Bye: 6.
AUG. 27 UPDATE: Jonathan Stewart was carted off with an ankle injury in the first half at New York. He'll probably be out several weeks.
Jonathan Stewart is the more talented running back in Carolina, but he's also being paid a lot less than DeAngelo Williams. I really don't understand why the Panthers re-signed Williams last offseason (or more importantly, why they failed to trade him the prior year), and it's a shame because Stewart has to rot on Carolina's sideline. I'd rather have Stewart than Williams though; at some point, Ron Rivera just has to give the better player the football.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 730 rushing yards. 25 catches. 220 receiving yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Points: 125 (140).
Projected 2012 PPR Fantasy Points: 150 (165).
- Alfred Morris, RB, Redskins. Bye: 10.
SEPT. 1 UPDATE: Tim Hightower of Oldtown is gone. I feel like Alfred Morris was already the favorite for early-down work because Mike Shanahan held him out of the preseason finale, but Shanahan is very difficult to predict.
AUG. 30 UPDATE: Mike Shanahan held his starters out against the Buccaneers. No Robert Griffin, no Pierre Garcon, no Fred Davis. And no Tim Hightower or Alfred Morris. This tells me that Shanahan's top two backs, at least in September, figure to be Morris getting the early work and Hightower handling third-down duties. Of course, this is a total guess. No one knows what Shanahan is going to do. I don't even think he knows. But Morris is the one Redskin I would take in Round 11 or later.
AUG. 26 UPDATE: Evan Royster was out of the lineup with a minor knee injury, allowing Alfred Morris to start against the Colts. Morris made the most of his opportunity, rushing for 107 yards and a touchdown on 14 carries. He ran with great power and broke a number of tackles. He was highly impressive, and I'd now recommend drafting him in the later rounds. Of course, no Mike Shanahan running back should be chosen before Round 10; his backs could start during any week without notice.
After declaring his love for Evan Royster for the past couple of weeks, Mike Shanahan decided to start rookie Alfred Morris at running back. Morris had some nice carries, including a 21-yarder in which he broke three tackles. He finished with 34 yards on 10 attempts. This could lead to some drafting Morris around Rounds 10-12 in their fantasy league, but I've had enough of this nonsense. Shanahan is an a**hole.
Projected 2012 Fantasy Stats: 800 rushing yards. 8 catches. 50 receiving yards. 5 total TDs.

It seems pretty obvious that even if MJD comes to camp at this point, hes not going to be himself with a lack of training camp, so hes not going to be a top 5 back this year, and personally I dont think he will be around anytime soon, regardless of my opinion, who is the most likely candidate to get all of those touches, Blaine Gabbert is a fantasy RB stud (yes i meant RB)

You need to keep a closer eye on players and camp updates. You havent said anything different about steven jackson or the fact that he showed up to camp ripped up, ten pounds lighter, a lower body fat petcentage and is determined to disprove the 30 yr old rb rule. He also said he still expects to be the feature back. Im thinking hes going to have a really solid year with pead stealing only a few touches a game

Does the Eugene Amano injury knock CJ below Ryan Matthews?? Also I read that CJ had the toughest RB schedule and Matthews had the 2nd easiest or somthin...this true??

Would anyone still keep Lynch and lose their 3rd or 4th round pick...that is probably my only decent keeper...

I'd take Nelson over Jackson, and then also keep johnson and mccoy. I've got some feeling he wont be that good this year. And congrats on mccoy in the 12th.

I would certainly keep McCoy and Eli. I don't know how your getting McCoy for a 12th round pick, but it's tremendous value. Jordy Nelson would be the next value pick but if runningbacks are that hard to come by, Fred Jackson at 5 is pretty good.
@GS I don't think you really have to trade. I like Charles to make a huge comeback, but even if he does Bradshaw could be right with him.

Good afternoon,
First I want to thank you for your help last year. I finished in the money I both of my leagues, thanks to some of your help. Can't give you all of the credit.
I am in a keeper league and can keep 3 players.
I am thinking of keeping C. Johnson, tenn. in rd2, F.Jackson Buff in rd. 5 and L. McCoy Phil., in rd. 12
The only other thoughts I have a players I would consider keeping is E. Manning NYG in rd. 9 or J. Nelson GBP in rd 16.
This is a PPR league and RB's are hard to come by and that is why I am thinking of keeping 3. What do you think
Thank you

Great RB's? Wells and Best are hurt as usual.
Steve Johnson, Eric Decker, Doug Martin, Ahmad Bradshaw and Ryan Matthews is a better starting lineup then.
Greg Jennings, Eric Decker, Ahmad Bradshaw, Ryan Matthews & ?

@ Joe
Felix Jones is a moot point in the trade. It's basically Jennings (Solid WR1) for Stevie J (Good WR2) and Martin (Good RB2). Considering Alex has no good WRs and has great RBs he should absolutely do the trade.
Joe 08-01-2012 02:53 pm xxx.xxx.xxx.248 (total posts: 5)

@ Alex. No don't do the trade. Felix jones is worthless.

@ Curtis. Maybe that's the point. He has McFadden as the 8th best runningback but wouldnt take him early in the second because of injury. There is better value with recievers or quarterbacks. Not to mention just because he has him ranked 8th doesn't mean everyone else in your draft does.

Needed facilities
For close to 30 years, Athens Drive High School has been sorely and shamefully ignored. As a community, we have patiently waited for the City of Raleigh and the Wake County school system to work together to provide simple improvements to our school, such as bathrooms, proper lighting and a paved parking lot with sidewalks that can allow our students and family members safe access to their cars.
Over 1,300 students at Athens Drive participate in sports-related activities and in the marching band. Athens Drive's stadium hosts thousands of community members throughout the year. It generously opens its facility for community programs including Pop Warner football, Senior Games, Raleigh Summer Track, Wake County Special Needs Camp as well as numerous sport camps and benefit tournaments.
Our athletes have to use the woods for a bathroom. There is no paved emergency access to our field or handicap access to our bleachers. Our lights are below safety standards both in the stadium and in the parking area, and there is no shelter for our students in inclement weather.
The school board is finalizing projects that will be included on the next school bond issue. We have waited long enough for basic health and safety accommodations. Please do not cut us out again.

Dean and Fay Lamica celebrated their first wedding anniversary, Aug. 28, along the beaches of Maine. Last year the couple spent their honeymoon on the west coast, taking in a couple of stops along the way.
Dean walked his niece, Dani, down the aisle in Boise, Idaho. In Seattle, the couple climbed Mount Rainier with their daughter Mechelle and her husband, Mark Lange. Their daughter, Angie Young and grandchild, Zach Young, live locally.
Dean is employed at Curtis Lumber Supply and Fay is employed at Monaghan Medical Corp., Plattsburgh.
The Lamicas met on Aug. 31, 1996, through mutual friends.

With the summer of 2013 coming to a close, Governor Chris Christie visits Wildwood. He snapped pictures with folks, shook hands along the boardwalk and chatted with business owners.
Inside Fishers, located on the boardwalk, a worker was very excited to meet the governor. It was a bright spot in her day, considering business was slow this summer.
"We work hard, hope everything is ok next year, you know," she says.
Down the boardwalk, others agree they too have seen fewer customers this year.
"It was significantly lower, about 30 percent, possibly," says William Murphy, who works on the boardwalk. "I've heard everyone saying about pretty much the same thing: they're all losing money."
Yet today Governor Christie pointed out the positives, reminding folks that some predicted there would be some areas along the shore that wouldn't even open this year.
"Almost 100 percent of beaches open," he said. "Highest within the country."
Millions were poured into the "Stronger Than The Storm campaign," a campaign the governor credits with bringing tourists back to the shore.
"The fact is though, it's a lot better than it was in November and [better than] people anticipated it being. We've done everything we can do to make sure we get it back as quickly as possible. I don't think there's anybody, a thinking person, out her who thought summer of 2013 was going to be as good as summer of 2012," says Governor Christie.
Some business owners say their numbers did remain steady, but data for the harder hit areas will not be available until later this year.

I got the news the same way a lot of other people did. I on the Patch.
At first, it was a severe accident with multiple victims being taken to various hospitals, some in critical condition. The story was soon updated that what had been a terrible accident had become a true tragedy. A man had died, succumbing to his injuries.
At the same time as this news unfolded, I found out I knew who this man was. I didn't know him personally, but many of my friends and others whom I know and respect did know him very well. I knew who he was because of who he was.
He was a motorcycle rider who has devoted more hours than most of us can imagine attempting to improve motorcycle safety for all riders. He devoted even more of his heart to ensuring that every soldier who was going off to war, had returned from war and those who had died in war received the hero's recognition they so richly deserved. Again, I knew before it was public that he had just the day before rode nearly four hundred – 400! – miles in the rain to honor a soldier who was killed in action. At the moment of his tragic death, he was on the way to a sendoff for another soldier who was being deployed.
Yet none of that mattered, at least not according to the commentators who flooded the Patch article with their speculations, accusations and blame. Some insinuated, before any details of the accident were released, that his injuries and even his death were of his own making because he chose to
ride without a helmet.
From there, the speculation became ever more surreal. Questions about why the multiple victims were transported to different hospitals were addressed with a tirade on how it is the insurance companies who dictate where an accident victim would be taken. Debate over whether or not a traffic light should be or should have already been installed at this intersection took up dozens of posters' attention. Whether or not this would impede traffic flow or increase safety were discussed ad naseum.
Most sickeningly of all was the response to a family member of the man who died, again bringing up the idea that his death was somehow his own fault for not wearing a helmet.
In response to a family member. I was truly sickened to think that someone who thinks like this, thinks it is not only acceptable but right and justified to make that kind of statement to a grieving family lives somewhere nearby.
I understand human nature is to look at a tragedy and try to convince ourselves that as long as we do not do what that other person did, then we are somehow safe from suffering the same fate. It is one of the less admirable and more foolish reactions, but it is a human one.
What is not human or humane is to publicly voice those thoughts and opinions when there are so few facts known. It is going to take time for the police and authorities to reconstruct the accident and assign responsibility and perhaps blame. At this point, indeed at the point at which all these comments were made, the only known facts were that an SUV rear-ended a car that was waiting to make a left turn, causing that car to crash into a motorcycle.
All that was and still is known, at least publicly, about the driver of the SUV is that he hit the car that was stopped; that he was not wearing a seat belt, and that he was ejected from the vehicle. He sustained life-threatening injuries and was taken to a hospital in critical condition.
The occupants of the car consisted of a family of four; mom, dad and two little children, all who had to be extricated from their vehicle. Thankfully, they have all survived, though the mom is still in critical condition as of this writing.
And the motorcycle driver, who was merely tooling down the road, was critically injured and succumbed to those injuries, leaving a family to mourn.
At last count, there were over one hundred – 100! - comments in the thread, and too few of them even mentioned the fact that three families are devastated. One family lost a beloved member, by all accounts a true asset to the community, and people are actually arguing over details and speculations that as time has gone by have been proven to be patently false.
It is a certain type of thinking and a certain type of, I hesitate to say person, who anonymously posts on a tragedy with the sole purpose of making their point, a point which is wholly inappropriate and in no way germaine to the fact that people are suffering, a man had died and families are still too much in shock to even begin to grieve.
Most of these families are local, and if not readers of the Patch, someone they know probably is. What the posters fail to recognize is that these families are going to at least hear about all this. At a time when they rightly feel the world should stop revolving because for them it has, too many members of their community are more interested in discussing whether red light cameras are nothing but a revenue generating scam, and attaching their inane conversation to the single most earth shatteringly important piece of news of their lives.
If you are insulted by my statements, I'm glad. If you identify with the type of person I'm referring to, you should be insulted and ashamed. But, I fear shame is not an emotion you will feel, as that would require a level of compassion and consideration for your fellow human beings, a level of intelligence and common decency your words show you lack.
Many people, I'll even say most people commenting — at least those who use their real names, are not trying to cause further pain and suffering for these families. I absolutely believe there is no forethought of malice; I also believe there was insufficient forethought. Just because you didn't intend to do harm does not free you from the responsibility that is yours for the harm you did. You didn't mean to, but you didn't mean not to. Even if you go back now and delete your comments, this is cyber-space. The words will be forever out there, and the harm they have done cannot be taken back.
Those who post anonymously know that exposing your true self, your true identity, would cause you to be an object of ridicule, condemnation and ostracization by the rest of us. You may lack the common sense to not write such hateful things, but you do have enough intelligence to know this to be true; it is why you hide behind what you alone think are witty or pithy pseudonyms.
Ask any fifth grader and they will tell you that if you don't want people to know what you've said or done, you probably shouldn't say or do it. The next time the question comes up "Are you smarter than a fifth grader?," you can honestly say no.

I'm happy to be the newest Los Gatos Patch blogger and I'm writing today about a national issue that I'm very passionate about – early high school start times.
As a health science librarian and concerned mom I am well aware of the negative consequences of early start times. I've spent countless hours reading the research literature on early start times and sleep loss in adolescents – it's overwhelming. Unfortunately, I also see my 16-year-old son struggle with his 7:10 a.m. start time on a daily basis. Hopefully, this story will help raise awareness of this issue among members of your community.
On Wednesday, May 23 Congressman Mike Honda's Einstein Educator Distinguished Fellow, Lynn Hommeyer will meet with members of Start School Later to discuss their ongoing petition for safe and healthy school start times. So far, the petition has garnered nearly 6,000 signatures from concerned citizens who recognize the impact of unhealthy start times on the nation's children. In the past, Congressman Honda has been an advocate for later school start times and co-sponsored Representative Zoe Lofgren's House Concurrent Resolutions on this issue in 2007 and 2009.
The meeting will take place in Washington DC.
Start School Later is a grassroots coalition that is working to raise national awareness of the health, safety, and academic consequences of early school start times. Start School Later currently has advisory board members from California and has been active in working for reasonable start times in several states. Most recently, the group helped thwart efforts to implement early start times in Seattle.
In the United States, high schools commonly start in the 7 a.m. hour, with bus runs starting considerably earlier. This makes it virtually impossible for many adolescents to get the requisite hours of sleep their growing brains and bodies need. Research has shown that early high school start times are associated with sleep deprivation - this realization is growing among parents, health professionals, and educators who now recognize that sleep deprivation among adolescents is epidemic in our country.
A recent Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Youth Risk Behavior Survey quantifies the extent of the problem and estimates that almost 70 percent of high school students are not getting the recommended hours of sleep on school nights.
The consequences of insufficient sleep in adolescents are well documented in the research literature and can be profound. They include pathological levels of sleepiness, cognitive impairment, memory and learning issues, increased risk for car accidents, and a variety of emotional and behavioral problems. A desire to bring these issues into the national consciousness was the impetus behind Start School Later and is discussed in a recent Education Week article by co-founder Dr. Terra Ziporyn Snider.
As one California petition signer sums it up: "I am a teacher of young children. I want to see them thrive when they reach high school and have been hearing about the problems with early school times for years. If we really care about their education, this needs to be taken into account!"
