Daiwa Health Development Plasmanex 1 - 60 Vegetable Capsules
Daiwa Health Development's Plasmanex1 has been shown to support healthy circulation and blood flow. Daiwa Health Development's Plasmanex1 contains 250 mg per serving of Bacillopeptidase F Proprietary Blend (BFPB), a purified filtrate of bacillus subtilis natto culture.Bacilliopeptidase F Proprietary Blend (BFPB) - An Effective Coagulation Modulator
What is Plasmanex1? Plasmanex1 is a dietary supplement shown to promote and support healthy blood circulation. The active ingredient of Plasmanex1 is Bacillopeptidase F Proprietary Blend (BFPB). The Blend contains Bacillopeptidase F; a natural soy peptide enzyme extracted by using a patented fermentation production process.
What is the advantage of a normal blood flow? Blood circulates throughout the body to transport nutrients and oxygen to all the cells and carries away waste products. Without access to the blood, cells and body tissues are deprived of nutrients and oxygen and tend to die. Maintaining healthy blood circulation and keeping its components circulating efficiently is vital for the nutrient process and oxygenation.
What is the importance of healthy blood circulation? Healthy circulation in the vessels can help prevent blood clots. Disease states impacted by clots include heart attacks, cerebral infarction (stroke) and pulmonary thromboembolism (blood clots to the lung). Lifestyle factors such as obesity, aging, dehydration, pregnancy, cardiovascular disease and conditions acerbated by cancer, and long distance and frequent travel, are contributing factors to blood clot formation. Plasmanex1 helps maintain and support optimum blood circulation.
Why does blood clot formation increase with age, overweight, and faulty metabolism? Our body produces plasmin and related products which maintain enzymes with the ability to break up clots by dissolving fibrin, the material that forms blood clots and eventually entangled red cells and platelets to form the clot. As we age, the body produces less plasmin while fibrinogen and fibrin, levels increase. Therefore, the higher the level of fibrinogen, the greater the possibility of developing blood clots. Furthermore, the older we get the more clotting and the less clot busting ability we have. Increased blood clot formation in millions of Americans each year enhances heart attacks, strokes and limb loss that are a direct or indirect result from unnecessary blood clots, leading to death or permanent disability. Being overweight is an indication of faulty metabolism. Faulty metabolism that results in high triglyceride and low HDL levels is considered to be a major cause of arteriosclerosis. How does fibrin effect coagulation? Blood clotting occurs when the blood clotting enzyme, thrombin, breaks down a protein called fibrinogen to create a fibrous material called fibrin. Fibrin creates a web that traps white and red blood cells with platelets and results in clotting. Excessive thrombin or fibrinogen may result in higher levels of fibrin.
What are some of the factors of blood coagulation? Blood coagulation is a complex process. There are many factors contributing to normal blood coagulation. It is important to keep these factors in balance to avoid disorders of the coagulation system which can lead to increased risk of bleeding and/or excessive clotting. Excessive clotting, called thrombosis, is the formation of blood clots in the circulatory system. Although there are numerous factors that contribute to normal blood coagulation, two processes are very important. They are the thrombin cascade and the plasmin/plasminogen/PAI-1 system. How do Plasmin, Plasminogen and PAI-1 impact coagulation? Plasminogen is an inert enzyme in the blood that does not directly effect blood coagulation. It requires a material called t-PA, Tissue Plasmin Activator, to change it to an active form named plasmin that breaks apart blood clots. However, another agent in the blood, PAI-1, Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor, reduces the ability of t-PA to change plasminogen into plasmin. Studies show that PAI-1 promotes blood clot formation and prevents blood clots from dissolving. Elevated PAI-1 levels are associated with increased risk of myocardial infarction and/or heart attack. Therefore to reduce the formation of blood clots, it is desired to reduce the amount of PAI-1 and increase the level of t-PA. What are the results of blood clots in the circulatory system? Formation of a clot in a blood vessel, known as thrombus, can break loose and be carried by the blood stream to obstruct another vessel. The clot may block a vessel in the lungs causing a pulmonary embolism or a clot in the brain may induce a stroke. Clot formation may also affect the gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, or legs. Thromboembolism is a main cause of morbidity (incidence or prevalence rate of disease) and mortality (death), especially in adults. Treatment may involve anticoagulants (blood thinners), aspirin, or vasodilators (drugs that relax and widen vessels). Recent findings show that the plasmin/plasminogen system also regulates blood flow in the entire body. What conditions promote the formation of blood clots?
How does Plasmanex1 support healthy blood circulation? Clinical and laboratory studies suggest that Plasmanex1 may reduce PAI-1, which at elevated levels promotes blood clot formation. High C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in patients, an indicator of vascular inflammation or excessive lipid accumulation, is correlated with elevated PAI-1 activity. PAI-1 in turn reduces t-PA, a beneficial enzyme that rapidly breaks down blood clots formed in the blood vessels of the heart, brain and lungs. Plasmanex1™ helps restore blood flow balance by:
Research demonstrates that Plasmanex1 helps support healthy blood circulation.
Is Plasmanex1 safe? Daiwa Health Development has conducted clinical studies to demonstrate the safety of Plasmanex1. No clinically adverse events were observed. All tests showed values within normal range and no abnormal changes in hematological or biochemistry tests were registered. Twenty-three healthy adults were given 250 mg of Plasmanex1 daily for 12 weeks in a study conducted at the Department of Legal Medicine, Dokkyo University School of Medicine, Mibu, Japan, and Hanzomon Gastrointestinal Clinic, Tokyo, Japan. No clinical adverse effects were observed. A toxicity study was conducted by the Department of Legal Medicine, Dokkyo University School of Medicine, Mibu, Japan, Seikokai S.S. Clinic, Hachioji, Japan and Department of Strategic Management/IT, Chiba University of Commerce, Ichikawa, Japan. Eight healthy adults were given excess intake of 1,250 mg of Plasmanex1 daily for 7 days. No clinical adverse effects were observed.

On hand to formally open the Justice William E. McAnulty, Jr. Tennis Center and George Unseld Courts were members of Unseld and McAnulty's families, as well as Mayor Jerry Abramson, Metro Councilman Deonte Hollowell, I-6, and Metro Parks officials.
McAnulty, who died in 2007, was Kentucky's first African-American Supreme Court Justice and was the first black to hold a cabinet-level post in the state, when former Gov. John Y. Brown appointed him Justice Secretary in 1980. He was also a former Jefferson Court District Judge, Circuit Court Judge and served on the Kentucky Court of Appeals. Unseld, who died in June, first served the city of Louisville as a member of the Board of Alderman pre-merger, and was first elected to the Metro Council in 2002, serving until his death.
Unseld was personally involved in securing $475,000 for the project over three years from the Metro Council's capital projects fund. He was on hand to help break ground at Central Park in June, shortly before his death.
A group of citizens has also raised more than $30,000 in Judge McAnulty's memory for future improvements and added features to the complex.
"I wish that my two friends could see how great this project turned out," Abramson said. "These two men worked tirelessly to make Louisville a better place throughout their distinguished careers as public servants, and this tennis complex is a great tribute to them, and a wonderful addition to Old Louisville."
The complex's improvements include timed lights that will be activated by players after dark and will remain live for an hour; stadium seating for 100 people, an upgraded drainage system that will increase longevity of the tennis court surfaces, and brand-new concrete that replicates the color of the original concrete used in construction of the park.
"Players who travel downtown to play tennis will find a tennis complex that is greatly enhanced and one of the best in Louisville," Metro Parks Director Mike Heitz said. "I want to thank the families of Councilman Unseld and Judge McAnulty for helping us make what was their vision a reality."
Metro Parks has 155 tennis courts in 43 local parks, including the Louisville Tennis Center in Joe Cresson Park. All courts are asphalt, except for the 11 clay courts at the Tennis Center, and six clay courts in Chickasaw Park.
Central Park is a 16-acre Olmsted Park in Old Louisville, located at 1340 South Fourth Street. It's the home of the Old Louisville Information Center and, for the past 50 years, free Shakespeare in Central Park performances during the summer.

Course: MSW 930 International Social Work and Social Welfare (3 credits)
Instructor: Michael O'Melia, Associate Professor of Social Work
Dates: December 26, 2014 - January 14, 2015
Primary Location: Cuenca, Ecuador
Price: $5,100
For over a decade, St. Ambrose University and CEDEI have offered a successful short-term program designed to provide serious college students, teachers, and other interested adults with an opportunity to study the language and culture of Latin America. The program includes formal classroom instruction, the opportunity to live with and learn from an Ecuadorian family, and numerous field trips to sites of cultural, geographical, and historical interest.
Social work roles and responsibilities extend beyond national boundaries. Social work and social welfare are prominent institutional vehicles through which societies assure quality of life for their citizens. Informed by a value base of human rights and social justice, social work practitioners today require understanding of the international dimensions of the social work profession, awareness of the impact of global interdependence on social work practice, knowledge of the historical and current challenges facing developed and developing worlds, and exposure to a range of global social problems. This elective course is designed for students interested in international social work and cross-national comparisons of social welfare programs and policies.
The Setting: Cuenca, Ecuador
Ecuador lies on the equator along the Pacific coast of South America. It is a country of spectacular geographical and cultural contrasts, tropical coast and beautiful beaches, snow-capped Andean volcanoes, and lush Amazon rain forest. Located high in Ecuador's southern Andes, Cuenca is the third largest city in the country. Nourished by mountain rivers, Cuenca enjoys spring-like temperatures year round.
Because of its tradition of achievement in scholarship and the arts, Cuenca has been called the Athens of the Andes. Today Cuenca is the site of three major universities, several study abroad programs, many museums, and numerous research and cultural organizations.
Cuenca was founded in 1557 on the Inca city of Tomebamba and continues to preserve its Spanish colonial heritage. The many churches dating from the 16th and 17th centuries, the colonial residences, the cobblestone streets, and several nearby artisan villages make Cuenca one of the most charming cities in Ecuador.
With a population of 250,000, the city is large enough to provide health, educational, and recreational services, yet small enough to offer personal hospitality.
Students attend classes Monday through Friday mornings for three to four hours each day. Attendance is strictly required. In most courses, field trips will supplement class time. In addition to coursework, students are encouraged to participate in cultural and social activities in the community and to take advantage of the extracurricular afternoon events including lectures, videos, and dance classes. The Program includes visits to special sites including the Inca fortress of Ingapirca, El Cajas National Park, the resort town of Baños de Ambato, the Old City of Quito, La Mitad del Mundo, the weaving and crafts centers of Otavalo, San Antonio de Ibarra, and Calderón.
Application deadline - September 9, 2014
Step 1: Complete the online application.
Step 2: Fill out a Liability Form. Upload the form into your online application or return it to 313 Ambrose Hall.
Step 3: Submit $500 deposit to 313 Ambrose Hall (checks payable to St. Ambrose University).
Step 4: If your application is approved, complete the next steps for accepted students.
Step 5: Approved students will be asked to fill out additional application and housing paperwork for CEDEI.

Noticed your review of "Moon Tiger." It is one of a batch of books I often reread.
And I wonder if you know our Christchurch friends, Lyndsay and Richard Fenwick? If so, do say hello for me.

oh my goodness, Megan, you have 5 of my all-time favorite books on your Booker list: 'the sea, the sea,' 'regeneration trilogy,' 'remains of the day,' 'possession,' and 'moon tiger.' 'possession' was one of the last 3 books i was able to read visually, all 3 of which made my 'favorite books ever' list. i've listened to it 3 times since, 'Regeneration' i've listened to probably 6 times, 'remains of the day' 3 times and i'm considering 'moon tiger' as a reread for this year. if you've not read any of them before, i envy you. what delights you have in store. :) oh and if you read audio books at all, Peter Firth's narration of the 'Regeneration' trilogy, and especially 'Regeneration,' is absolutely inspired.

Hi Megan,
I've been planning to come back and give a little update on the busy year we've had.. renovating, europe trip, work, and reading of course so your message was a good reminder.. watch this space!
As to the book swap, I think it's a great idea and you can count me in.
posted by KiwiNyx at 8:08 pm (EST) on Oct 30, 2012
Hi, Megan.
I've decided I'd like to participate in the book swap - mostly because I've realised that as I drift further and further into the realm of old / obscure books (and having just staggered in with another load of second-hand classics from a book fair), there are some more contemporary works on my shelves that realistically I'm not going to go back to; though parting with books is always painful. :)
So - in! Thank you!
posted by lyzard at 8:32 pm (EST) on Oct 26, 2012
I'm keen! What condition do the books need to be in? brand new, gently read, or anything goes? You have all the kiwi's I've met on LT so far!

Hi Megan, I'm afraid I'm going to have to pike on your wonderful suggestion of a book swap for Xmas! I don't need any more books (really, honestly, I have more than enough to last me the rest of my lifetime!); and I have no time this year, stupid work getting in the way of reading. :(
Best of luck, it's a great idea!
posted by wookiebender at 2:04 am (EST) on Oct 23, 2012
Hi, Megan!
Theoretically I would love to participate in something like this but I'm honestly not sure I'd be able to supply an appropriate list of books. Really the only ones I'm thinking of getting rid of are old text books, and some piles of non-fiction (some of it not just second- but third-hand) relating to some topics of, shall we say, dubious interest. :)
Since I have until November I guess I can scan the shelves and see what the list would realistically look like, but I don't want to be the person who puts a lump of coal in someone's stocking!
Thanks for the invitation - I'll try to get back to you ASAP with a definite yes or no.

Hi Megan,
Thanks for your Asia-Pac book swap message. It could be a possibility in other years, but unfortunately this year, I'm away from home, and unable to access my collection. Not to say I haven't bought books in the meantime, but I'm carefully keeping them to books I want to hang on to, and making good use of the local library, too.
But please keep me in mind for next year.
Thanks for getting in touch,

Hello megan - what a lovely idea about the book swap!
Yes, trying to rack by brains around other antipodeans: Wookiebender, patrickgarson (who doesn't post in threads but is a dear friend and colleague who introduced me to LT and posts lots of reviews - and I know he wants to cull from his mountain of books).
Can't think of anyone else though who wouldn't be a complete stranger! This will be fun (away to my stash to see what I can part with!) You are sweet to have thought of this. Been a bit of an occasional joiner this past month or two. So so busy at work and I don't take my PC home at night (too bloody heavy to slog up and down the hill with) and weekends have been hectic with getting the farm in order to sell in December. But I try to lurk even if I don't post!
mwah sweetie to your gorgeous self and your irrepressible boys!

Hi Megan - thanks for adding my library. Nice to see another kiwi about the place.
I see you are currently reading Visitation - I'd be interested in your thoughts on it. An intriguing book in many ways.
Oh, and like you I am also trying to read The Bone People at some stage in 2012 too!

HEY, just cruising around and saw your name. Where i'm from there are LOTS of people with tattooed forearms so i can dig what you're saying... QUITE HANDY WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE A BOOK!!
Peace, boney.mmmm.

Megan - you are an absolute angel! Thanks so much for the info - I will go through with SWMBO and get her to choose.

Hi Megan,
Thank you for your comment on my thread about Andrew Biss' The Impressionists. He is a brilliant writer of short stories and I hope you will take the time to download his collection and read it, as it is definately worthwhile.

Thanks Megan for keeping us so much in mind. Of the two trans-alpine destinations which would you recommend the most?
posted by PaulCranswick at 2:08 am (EST) on Feb 6, 2012
Hi Megan, those book suggestions all look so good, I could happily take any of them and I think that a meetup will definitely be on the cards when I come down next. What part of Chch are you in? I usually stay with my parents in Ilam or my big sister in Linwood when I visit although I suspect it will be Ilam for the next trip. Getting excited now although it is a pity the Main Street Cafe and Smiths bookshop are no longer open.

Megan - thanks so much! SWMBO overrode my travel dates and we are now arriving on 29 March and going back on 19 April. Arr and depart both via Christchurch but we do want to do both islands. Very much in the planning stage and I would really welcome your suggestions on good places to visit, thrifty accommodation and car hire etc! Effectively we have 21 days and I thought something like 12 days in the South and 9 in the North?

8 is even better! Tim needs to go into work (just found out) so I have to be home by 10. What's your hotel? I'll just show up as soon as I get in - will text you first when I'm leaving Wadestown (about 15 minutes' drive)

I'll text you - but I can come to your hotel and do whatever fits with Lenny. I can even bring coffee to your hotel room if you want! And if he's awake, there is a really nice cafe v near your hotel on Willis St.
Early suits me really well - am up at about 5 am still.
See you soon

Haha, right... I'll take that as a compliment. I think. I've been reading through all of Stephen's threads trying to catch up and your name caught my eye - it's always interesting when I find someone who shares some of the slightly more unusual titles in my library. :)
If it's any help, I've not really been around much on the new one recently. The bookshop one's been busy again, though - at this time of year I'm reading more than ever!

Hi Megan,
I saw a comment you left on Prue's site about the cost of books in NZ. As a (relatively) recent transplant from Texas to NZ, I can so agree. I used to think nothing of buying a book that looked interesting. Now I get 90% of my reading material from the library. This wasn't much of an issue when we lived in Auckland, but now that we've moved to Northland, the NAL (Not Available Locally) notations on my TBR list are beginning to be worrisome. Sending you a friend request.

Hey there
I think it was all the "hype" around girl with dragon tattoo. To start with i am not a very big crime person it has to really grab me and i found with this the concept was interesting however it seemed to take forever to get anywhere!!!
By the end of it i had no emotional concetion with the characters it was more the fact that i wanted to know what happened rather then why it happened or for that fact even care why it happened!
Time travellers wife is kinda similar. The whole story was just too confusing to follow and conect with the book as i found myself constantly trying to think back as to what had recently happened! I also read her new book "her fearful symetry" and found i disliked that as well. Maybe its just her style? I don't know.
Sorry about the late reply i have been neglecting the site recently =P

Hi, thanks for the recommendation for Nickel and Dimed, I'll have a look out for this book. Have you read Hard Work: Life in Low Pay Britain by Polly Toynbee, it's similar to Below the Breadline but it is one of my favourite books.

yes - Fast Food Nation was a very enlightening book for me as well. Not that I ate much fast food anyway, but since I read the book in 2004, I have not been able to eat at McDonalds since.. I think I have had BurgerKing once and Wendys once since then, and that has been the sum total of my fast food eating, unless you count Subway, Wawa, or Panera, which are more sandwich places than burger places.
Ive never been to New Zealand, though a number of my friends have, and I hear there is quite the sheep production there. Probably a silly question, but are lamb burgers as big there as cowburgers are in the US? Forgive the ignorant Mmmerkin ;)
US food production or not, I think Omnivore's Dilemma a worthwhile read. I had the opportunity recently to hear Pollan speak and interestingly, he mentioned that some who read his book said it was the reason they could no longer eat meat, and some vegetarians said it was the reason they could eat meat again (realizing that there are ways to alleviate their concerns). So take from it what you will, but it's an interesting call to think about food choices in a new way (or at all).
posted by bfertig at 7:13 am (EST) on May 1, 2010
likewise! I didn't see it in your library, but if you haven't read The Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan, check it out. Some food for thought ;) Cheers!

GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) - Five months ago, the Green Bay Police Department began accepting crime reports online.
So far, 184 reports have been started...but just 86 have been completed. That's a problem for officers looking to help out those people who started filling out those crime reports.
"There could be a variety of reasons why people aren't finishing the reports," says Green Bay Police Lt. Kevin Warych. "But what we've seen so far is that when they get to the description of the event, that is when they seem to lose interest or do not complete the report."
Warych says officers have no way of contacting people or learning of possible crimes in an incomplete report.
"We really encourage them to put in there whatever they want," says Warych. "We developed the system to be user-friendly and we really encourage people to use it and help people become educated on it so that this is another way people can contact the police department."
Police want the public to know that any information given online is no different than if an officer responds to a phone call.

(11/29/12) - More than 80 kids are sick with the stomach flu in Grand Blanc Township, forcing two elementary schools to close.
McGrath and Anderson Elementary will be closed Friday. Thursday, some parents were taking extra steps to keep their kids healthy."That's the thing, if one gets it goes through the household," said Brett Anderson, a Grand Blanc parent with kids at the high school and middle school.With a nasty stomach bug circulating in the area, he's making sure his kids are staying safe."For one I'm trying to make sure they stay bundled up when heading out and just making sure they use a lot of antibacterial and stuff like that," he said.At least 80 elementary students are sick with what the health department believes is the norovirus, or the stomach flu.
Grand Blanc's superintendent says it's most likely an airborne virus, and they're hiring a special cleaning crew to come in and sanitize."The norovirus is one of the most contagious diseases there is," said Mark Valacak, Health Officer at the Genesee County Health Department.The health department says there's an up tick in the number of people with the disease.
"You want to rest, stay at home and make sure you drink plenty of fluids," Valacak said.And flu shots don't protect you against the norovirus; they help shield you from the influenza virus, a respiratory illness.
There's only one thing you can do to prevent the stomach flu."Wash you hands with soap and water for a period of time," Valacak said.If you do have the stomach flu, the health department says it should only last one or two days.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -- The Green Bay Packers' injury list keeps on growing.
Coach Mike McCarthy knew about the injuries sustained by wide receivers Randall Cobb and James Jones during Sunday's victory at Baltimore.
But he didn't learn until Monday morning that starting outside linebacker Nick Perry had suffered a foot injury that will sideline him at least for this week and likely longer.
"Nick Perry was a bit of a surprise to me. I didn't expect that," McCarthy said, one day after his team overcame injuries in a 19-17 victory over the Ravens.
"Obviously James and Randall, (we) saw the injuries in the game. You just hope for good news there."

Muted words linger in limbo
imprisoned between many leaves
bound together in the darkness

Their alphabetic existence
is but an endless servitude

chosen and together sequenced
for the glory of the poet.
The many verses read aloud
gives each utile word a voice
and continues till completion.
Then darkness returns once again
as the reference book is closed.

Teak Bathroom Space Saver 9 9
This is a beautiful unit The wood is very pretty teak. Matches some more expensive pieces we have in the room. Instructions ok if you are used to putting things together. Power screw driver best tool. Looks just like picture. December 20, 2013
Beautiful - needs installtion Very nicely made, high quality and goes together easily, instructions furnished and useful. Packaging very impressive, be prepared to take your time unpacking this, they took alot of care to protect the wood in shipment. Its not very stable and needs to be fastened to the wall. There is hardware supplied for this. August 22, 2013
It is beautiful! It is a very nice piece. Perfect for the space with a look of quality. Our plumbing was too high on the wall for the cross piece to fit so we had to leave it off. We instead secured it to the wall. Very happy with the purchase. September 26, 2012
Spacesaver My husband and I both love the spacesaver. It's the only one we could find in teak that would fit in our small bathroom. We were impressed with how well it was packaged for shipping. It probably took us longer to unwrap all of the parts than to put it together but that's a good thing. It arrived in great shape and was easy to assemble. April 24, 2012

**Due to personal issues, Seminole Warrior will be doing a guest post for the win over the Bucs.
Until then, talk about the game that was. A much needed win if the Falcons want to have any shot of getting back in the shuffle for the postseason.
October 20th, 2013
9:14 pm
The Bird Cage
A Win is a Win…Unless
Special Guest Writer: Seminole Warrior
The lovely Toni Braxton would refer to it as another sad love song. More precisely, she would say and I quote; "It's just another sad love song racking my brain like crazy; guess I'm all torn up – be it fast or slow, it doesn't let go or shake me; and it's all because of you".
Such is life as the home stretch run of the season is underway. For the struggling Falcons, losers of three straight, this was clearly a must win situation and the Tampa Bay Bucs seemed to be just the team we needed to get a little confidence boast back in our souls. It would be very interesting to see how this team would react after the bye for after a bye week, all Falcon nation carefully and astutely, would be very interested to see what changes, if any, would be made.
Well, it is now early evening in the Peach State and the questions STILL remain about this team. Sure, they won. The Falcons defeated the Bucs by a final score of 31-23. But did you REALLY look at the game? Did you pay very close attention to the flow of the game? Certainly, the three game losing stretch is over but….let's take a closer look.
They Were Who We Thought They Were….
Where was the urgency? The Tenacity? The Killer Instinct? Or the Finish Gene? How about the need or the desire to make a statement coming off the bye and after three losses? All of these were MIA as usual.
There they were; our Falcons jumping out to a nice 14-0 early lead. But again, let's look at it. The first quarter was nothing exciting at all; the lone score was a defensive touchdown. As the second set unfolded, we saw, in clear evidence, the dysfunctional nature of the Tampa Bay team on display. Penalties and poor play, lack of assignment discipline, and a pathetic effort, allowed the Falcons to score another quick ten points. This lead to a 24 point first half but the Bucs also scored ten points of their own.
Thank God for the Ice Man….
92.4%. If your child brought that home as a test score on a major exam, you would be very pleased. And you would have every reason to be for those results are reflective of a student who is focused and in touch with the subject content.
HOWEVER, if that same grade was indicative of your quarterbacks' contribution to the TOTAL offensive production of your team, would you be as happy?
That's what MR2's 274 yards represented in the contest. And mind you, he did this with 50% LESS time of possession than the Bucs had in this game!! Couple that with his three touchdown passes and it is CLEAR who the MVP of this team is, now and long term.
Offensive Explosion….NOT!!
By EVERY statistical measure except two, total passing yards and the final score, the Bucs outplayed the Falcons. Surprised? The Falcons failed to establish balance on offense and we extensively reliant on the passing game. Eighteen, YES, eighteen, yards rushing on EIGHTEEN carries. The teams had ONE yard per attempt amongst three primary rushers.
But stop the presses!! Those eighteen carries represented 40.9% of our offensive plays from the line of scrimmage. Yes, friends, nearly 41% of our offensive output accounted for EIGHTEEN yards.
And that comes after two weeks worth of adjustments or as the Branch calls it, "self-scouting".
Discipline and Fundamentals…Where Did It Go?
Again, we knew that Tampa's issues were well documented. So it was not surprising to see them with a high number of penalties and penalty yardage in this contest. But apparently, Atlanta did not want to be outperformed in that area. In very uncharacteristic form, we matched Tampa penalty for penalty. And there were times when again, basic football fundamentals were lacking.
Toni's Love Song Appears Again.
The team entered the second half and we fans witnessed the return of that classic shutdown approach to the game. The Falcons were outscored 13-7 in the second half and had it not been for the aforementioned dysfunctional nature of the Bucs, we may have been looking at a different result.
Defense….Defense…Where is a Consistency on Defense?
Oh, how sweet it is!! The brilliant minds in the Cage that saw a star in the making in Joplo Bartu, the same Bartu that would STILL be buried in witness protection, that little phenom exploded for 10 tackles and a half sack today. The porious secondary still gave up yardage in chunks while giving us yet another hit fest from William Moore and his supporting cast. An anemic Tampa rushing attack still averaged 4.0 yards per carry against an ATL defensive front that could only muster one sack and three tackles for lost against a problematic, injury riddled, penalty-laden Bucs offensive line.
Falcons Youth Movement; Not By Choice.
A fresh breeze blows across the plains. But it took a tsumani to get us to this point. Worrilow, Bartu, Goodman, Gaither, Johnson, and Davis all saw extensive time today. It reminds me of the good old days of pre-season. D3 asked the question a few weeks backs; Is the infamous Falcons WPP dead at last? I would not bet on it. Desperate times call for desperate measures. And despite the untapped talent of these players, they all will return to the pine sooner rather than later.
Gut Feeling: The More Things Change, the More They Remain the Same.
A bye week came and went. Inept offense, questionable game approaches at times, and too close for comfort finishing, still are staples for this team. Sure, the starring cast has experienced a makeover. But the script and the overall movie is still the same one that has been running at the dollar theater for the past twelve shows. The transition is truly in full effect. And it appears that the injuries and the youth movement will be the first phase of the excuses.
What did we REALLY achieve in the game against the Bucs?
Is this a TRUE win for the Falcons or a reflection of Tampa's dysfunctional state?
Why is the offense STILL so unbalanced?
Do you see this defense showing steady signs of improvement?
Can Matt Ryan continue to sustain 90% of our offensive production?
Is the status quo approach acceptable to the Falcon Nation?
Based on what you observed today, is this still a playoff worthy team?
October 20th, 2013
9:33 pm
D3-Whatever your personal issues are, I hope they're not beyond your ability to resolve them. Isn't it amazing how productive our backup WRs were, especially in crucial situations? Isn't it a damned shame that it took our medical staff to force our coaching staff to finally bench our injured & under performing starting WRs?
What good does it do to acquire talent & depth if we refuse to utilize it in any capacity other than special teams? It's going to be very interesting to see where TD & Smitty places their 1st rd emphasis when it comes to next yrs draft. Will it be OT or DT.
October 20th, 2013
9:43 pm
The format will look a tad different for the next week or so as the leader is away. I will do my very best to keep the flow solid during his absence.
Respectfully, I ask that if you intend to troll while the Boss is away, that you do it elsewhere. We will not have the time or energy to address it.
We, the Cage Family, real and extended, will press on with our dedication to all things Falcons but we will also pause, as needed, to reflect with and be supportive of, our brother, D3, at this tough time.
October 20th, 2013
9:54 pm
SW excellent fill-in for D3. My condolences to him and his family. I'm happy with the win. But, a dysfunctional Tampa Bay team still gave me pause. After jumping out to a 24-7 lead, their lack of a killer instinct squandered the lead to seven well into the third quarter. Arizona will be a tougher test on the road next week. We shall see then if this team is turning the season around.
October 20th, 2013
9:55 pm
Roddy, Nice job and tks my friend!
October 20th, 2013
9:55 pm
SW. Nice write up. Just glad for win w our no name offense. Ryan haters will hate but good game with no online
October 20th, 2013
10:04 pm
Thanks for the support. My (our) friend needs time to himself and his family so it was the least I could do in stepping in and doing a little something. He was there for me during my darkness and I promise you, as I know each of you feel the same way, we will be here for him in ANY way he needs us.
October 20th, 2013
10:08 pm
My intent was to do something short and focused on the subject matter I heard on the radio as I returned home. After I arrived, I did a recap of the game via ESPN and the NFL website.
Statistically, it did not appear that we changed much and that we were significantly reliant on the arm of MR2 to carry the day. That is not the way to get this team to where it needs to be. And I do not mean that as a shot at MR2. He is a proven commodity that is secure in the ATL long term.
But with this "stay of execution" from the WPP, the team MUST maximize the talent and see what we really have on this roster. When you can not rush for 50 yards in a game, that is deeply disturbing. It is even more disturbing when you KNOW that you have a rental that is on the down side of a very deserving career and as I see it right now, can not be entrusted to be a centerpiece of an offensive blitzkrieg.
October 20th, 2013
10:12 pm
I totally agree. And that continuance is deeply troubling to me considering we had TWO weeks to make needed adjustments in our overall "strategies".
I heard that the media made big points of Nolan being on the sidelines today. So? When the Tampa team has possession of the ball for nearly 38 or so minutes, that is too much time on the field for a defensive unit? And when that offense out performs yours in every stat except the final score, that is disturbing.
The difference in this game was again a lucky break…a fumble recovery returned for a TD. Take that break away (and trust me, I understand the value of breaks), and where are we?
After two weeks of "self-scouting", we are STILL relying on breaks? That does not sit well with me.
October 20th, 2013
10:14 pm
If there are any remaining Ryan haters out there, and I know that they are there, then I simply do not know what it will take for them to see the light.
When a man directly is a MAJOR component in 92% plus of your total offensive production, then what more can you ask of him to do? And anyone that can not appreciate that it is MR2 that make the CFA the "successful one" is simply not being real with him or her self.
October 20th, 2013
10:39 pm
Great stuff, SW .
I'll be on later or tomorrow for more commentary.
Brightest stars were exactly who you said they were – Ryan and Bartu.
That said, major props to Harry Douglas for getting the job done at WR, WillyMo for bringing the pain…how about DJ doing his job as well?
Anybody thinking the Falcons braintrust looks incredibly stupid for keeping DJ on the PS and bringing in Robiskie's boy, who couldn't catch a cold in the sick bay?
October 21st, 2013
2:34 am
Big Ray agreed,
I said it yesterday morning the move to get Robiskie in made no sense what so ever. How is it that we can see flashes from guys Johnson Bartu and others in pre season but the guys who get paid to evaluate talent cant. I bet that some of the players said to the coaches, you got to get DJ on the field rather than it being soley the coaches decision, reminds me of a young Harry Douglas when he had a great rookie season with Matt Ryan, its early days with DJ but he is showing some promise.
October 21st, 2013
6:22 am
Good Morning Cage Family
Mike from London….excellent observation. DJ does remind me of HD during his days at Louisville. There was promise there as an excellent slot receiver. And when asked to showcase, HD did it well.
As it relates to HD83, someone stated a few months back that he feels or seems to feel better on the outside than he does working the intermediate or crossing routes. If that is the case, and the end result clearly suggests that he may have better upside there, why not move RW84 inside to the slot and go with HD83 outside. What do we have to lose?
One of them is a cap casualty next spring anyways and I'm betting, due to the economics and his more quiet tone, it may not be HD83.
October 21st, 2013
6:25 am
Said it once, will say it again, the Rob move was an act of desperation. He brings nothing to the table that we did not have on the practice squad.
The Johnson promotion was also one of fear given that the Cage and the Godfather, DO Led, with support from other media, had put Falcon Nation and the football world at large on notice that ATL players were not being developed and/or effectively given a shot in the WPP.
October 21st, 2013
6:31 am
Thanks. I just want things to be smooth while the Boss is away.
And with the same issues still in play, I decided to keep it simple. We got the win and that was needed from all angles. I love them but I just do not see the heartbeat of a champion in this team this year.
I just don't. There will certainly be those that call me a hater or suggest that I have given up on the Falcons for the year. Neither is true and I know that in my heart. What I do know is that I do not see the pulse of a team that is capable of contending for a championship. And the reasons are plentiful as to why.
But they are and will remain my team. I loved them then, love them now, and will love them always.
Painfully cautious is where I am.
October 21st, 2013
7:27 am
you're in my prayers, friend….
Thanks for standing in the gap…..
I saw something I REALLY liked in this game. Not a flashy stat or amazing play but something that I believe is vital for our franchise going forward. I saw a LOOK in Matt Ryan's eye–a change in demeanor–that could be a career-defining happening. I noticed a fire in his eye–a commanding presence that was missing with all the early success he's enjoyed as a pro. Sailing relatively effortlessly through the calmer seas of his first few seasons hasn't adequately prepared him for the storms we've faced this season…but I saw the FIRE yesterday. He was already a leader but yesterday, I began to see something more–COMMAND. Not just showing the way but moving the squad through force of WILL…pushing guys to reach higher and go further by example….the things Manning and Brady and Brees all do so well that elevates them above the pack of QBs. I even saw him faking guys out and looking them off instead of just getting the ball out faster to avoid the rush. Growth often only comes amid adversity. I hope to God that's what we're seeing now…..
October 21st, 2013
8:19 am
With all the injuries on Offense, and the obvious problems with our O-line, it remains to be the Defense that is letting this team down. We put up 31 points with our second string. The offense has scored enough to win every game this season.
I'm glad Nolan was on the field and I hope he's been put on notice. If this is truly his defense and not CMS then accountability is needed. We look no different from the days of BVG in my opinion, and teams move the ball on us at will.
October 21st, 2013
8:40 am
The Falcons need a new head coach. Mike Smith has done all he can do. He does not emphasize a winning attitude. It's a "what you did wrong" approach. He does not know how to make decisions or develop players. Changes that occur are done at Jurassic park speed. It about playing a certain conservative way with an outdated playbook. Things will never change for the better.
The Falcons have a quarterback similar to Luck and Manning that we saw last night, but the team will never play to its potential which was the fact in the "lost" years of 2010 and 2012. One of those years should have ended in a Super Bowl win or loss.
Doesn't it make you mad when you look at teams like the Colts, Chiefs, Saints, etc. and their improvement. Doesn't it make you mad when you see the players on the offensive and defensive lines that these teams have drafted.
The Colts actually played our castoff Jamaal Anderson for one year (2011) and still have managed to advance beyond the play of the Falcons. The Falcons defeated an 0-8 Colts team 31 to 7 in 2011. The Colts finished the season with a 2-14 record.
The change needs to occur sooner rather than later. As I have said for the previous three years:
Leopards never change their spots.
It will always be Smittyball on offense and defense. Where is the passion on the Falcons team?
October 21st, 2013
8:42 am
Good Stuff Seminole Warrior.
It wasn't pretty, but I am happy for the win. We still have some things to clean up, but hopefully this will give the young guys some confidence, and they can build on it for next week's game.
Some other comments; I think bringing in Robiskie might have been a favor to our WR coach (to bring his son in). And I agree with Ken. We should have rested Roddy the first 2 games, and who knows if things would have played out differently.
Good game by Matt Ryan, Quizz and HD on offense. And gotta love the Missouri hammer (William Moore).
October 21st, 2013
8:52 am
ESPN Tidbits:
Falcons head coach Mike Smith hinted some changes would be made coming off the bye week although he remained coy about what those adjustments would be. The one that might have had the biggest impact on Sunday's game was moving defensive coordinator Mike Nolan from the coaching box down to the field. It's a concept the Falcons used in the past, but it obviously injected some life into the defense.
Now put the Offensive Coordinator on the side line. If it works for the DC, then it should work for the OC. I have advocated this move for two years. I really believe HC Smith ordered that they stay in the press box because it gives him more "sideline control" on game day. The players need to see and feel their coaches on both sides of the ball.
HC Smith need to go. He is trully an HC Dinosaur.
More ESPN:
The Rams' 30-15 loss to Carolina Panthers was bad enough, but it could have cost them Bradford, who was hit along the sidelines and suffered a knee injury. He'll get an MRI Monday. The game got out of control. Defensive end Chris Long was ejected. Rams guard Harvey Dahl went after Carolina safety Mike Mitchell, who made the sideline hit on Bradford.
It's good to see Harvey Dahl is who the Cage thought he was.
October 21st, 2013
9:30 am
folks need to understand that this offense is chronically under utilized. Ryan could pass to anyone – he is excellent at reading the defense and getting the ball out quick. We win another 3 in a row, and we are back in contention.
October 21st, 2013
9:36 am
how many more games with teams with losing records? that's what the falcons really need….that's going back to last season
October 21st, 2013
9:42 am
Not a very good game. MR played well HD also. Rookies had a fair day. The Falcons are in for a long sad season. I've seen many seasons like this. It is always so frustrating to see these sort of things happen. The blame lies with the whole team. Players, coaches front office, the whole organization. Not surprising, I've seen it all before.
October 21st, 2013
9:46 am
how many teams with losing records on the falcons schedule?
October 21st, 2013
9:57 am
SW, good job, sir. D3, still thinking about you.
I agree with much you said. Ryan showed his worth to this team, ten fold.
October 21st, 2013
10:19 am
Dawson – My thouhts and prayers are with you brother.
Rod – Great writeup and thanks you for the sub.
As for my comments on the game:
1. Our OL is the only thing wrong with the TALENT on offense; however,
2. Even with poor OL, the coaching of Mike Smith is the only reason we don't score 50 a game.
3. The Defense is young and athletic, but needs to conitnue to grow
4. The older talent on DL and at LB need to go.
5. The soft zone dictating of Mike Smith is the main issue with the D.
6. Fortunately for Mike Smith and UNFORTUNATELY for this franchise, Winning hides many ills.
October 21st, 2013
10:24 am
I would hate to be Mike Mitchell. Can we trade/sign for Harvey Dahl in the offseason? Sometimes, when evaluating a player, height, weight, speed, etc don't matter as much as attitude.
October 21st, 2013
10:30 am
I think we all miss him….What type of guy is this Mitchell, I agree, he's gonna get taken out….
October 21st, 2013

Quietly …Steven Jackson has missed 6 weeks, what's going on with this dude?!?! It's reported he has a hamstring injury, is it torn? I don't claim to be a medical expert on hamstrings…or anything else medically related for that much, but one has to wonder, what's really going on with him? Smith can't accurately predict when he'll return, something just don't spell right bout the whole thing here…
I'm not questioning Jacksons toughness, or ethics…but could he be coasting alittle, have looked inside the organization (team) this year, and determined that we will be mediocre…and has decided the best thing for him will be to heal up, remain marketable to join another team 2014???
I don't know the answers, just seems to be som thing not right about whole thing…
October 21st, 2013
10:39 am
In the post game Q&A Smith said Nolan was no different in playcalling, but was on the sideline to "look players in the eyes" between series.
Quizz gets a bunch of credit in my book. He is a workhorse, and made the lack of a running game manageable.
SW– Nice job, hitting every point of concern. Will Smith learn from adversity or simply push harder with his usual methods? His Q&A sessions are harder than the Berlin wall, so it is next to impossible for us outsiders to see any adaptations from him. Successful people tend to push harder when meeting adversity. Successful LEADERS, learn and adapt. Based on what we see on Sundays, the leader who is growing and adapting is Matt Ryan.

SJAX. Talking to dude yesterday, and the rumor is that he ripped part of his hamstring, and waiting for the muscle to grow back over the rip.
Yesterday… glimmer of hope of what he future could be. Nolan needs to be on the sideline as i helps AB evaluate which coach is going to be the sacrifice if we end up with a losing season.
October 21st, 2013
1:37 pm
After reading over the league injury reports I'm glad we didn't have any more season ending ones yesterday. Next man up for a lot of teams.
After watching the highlights of the game, I was most amazed at the short pass to Quizz in a crowd. My better half, who is 5′3″ and loves Quizz, says shortness has it's advantages. I agree.
Watch this play at 2:32 of this tape.

"Yesterday… glimmer of hope of what he future could be. Nolan needs to be on the sideline as i helps AB evaluate which coach is going to be the sacrifice if we end up with a losing season."
Very interesting observation LRD. Did Smith move Nolan out the coaches box, onto the sidelines? did TD have something to do with it? or did Blank ask for it to happen? LRD, you're definitely on to something, this move screams of something the GM would do, the President (McKay) or the owner would request.
Arthur Blank, whatever you might think of him, is a very smart businessman, he's had to evaluate executives…employees in very high positions before, could he'd asked TD/Smith to move Nolan on the sidelines, so he could see if the defense played harder with his (Nolan) presence felt, compared to Smiths individual presence?
I don't know, maybe I'm grasping at straws…
Nolan on the sidelines, was a very interesting move…

From NFL.COM
There are reports that Steven Jackson (hamstring) has suffered a setback, so there's no telling when he'll be back on the field. That means a continued rise in value for Rodgers, who scored a pair of touchdowns against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Oregon State product has now scored a combined 36 fantasy points in his last two games — that's an impressive total.

Hey Cagers, life continues to keep me away from all things fun, including this blog, but I wanted to pop in to share the joy of victory with all of you, and upon seeing the heading, also say:
D3, whatever your "personal matters" may be, you're in my thoughts, and I hope everything turns out all right for you.
& SW, I'm sure you will do a fine job standing in.
October 21st, 2013
3:37 pm
And finally, a little something to chew on, as when I last left this blog, there was some ongoing discussion about the poor choices made, involving the release of some of our former linemen:
"The Miami Herald's Armando Salguero reports the Dolphins plan to bench, trade, or release RT Tyson Clabo.
This news comes one day after OL coach Jim Turner claimed Clabo "played a great football game" in Sunday's Week 7 loss to Buffalo, despite getting manhandled by Bills LE Mario Williams. Clabo has been the NFL's single worst offensive tackle through six games, according to Pro Football Focus' grades. He's been exposed as just another blunder amid GM Jeff Ireland's sputtering master plan to build an NFL team through free agency."
October 21st, 2013
3:39 pm
JB: Regarding Quizz's shortness, a strange scenario popped into my mind during yesterday's game. It was the thought of Quizz and Toilolo converging on a pass. Pass high, pass low. One of 'em gets it.
October 21st, 2013
5:31 pm
Great write up Warrior
The penalties really hurt us in the 2nd half of the game . That and a D that let them convert time after time on 3rd D and 4th downs.
Yea maybe some of this new talent will really shine in the offence. So we will have some good depth next year or even trade up power for a good pass rusher ' RB ' LB ' TE or OT .
The D has got it but ant got it . They seem to tire quick or get confused
Yea gotta hand it to him he was doing all he could to score points . The Ice Man is no doubt the best player the Falcons have .
October 21st, 2013

Great game by Falcons, Defense has 2 get better though still not enough pressure on QB.

…and I see Koetter has been admiring Sean Paytons playbook. He tried, and I might add, very successful (rendered 2 TD's) in attempting to use Quizz in similar fashion as the Saints use Darren Sproles, even lining him up as a wideout…
I aint mad at'cha Dirk, Whatever works…whatever works Dirk…

What's Happening Cage
Again, thanks for all the kind words and comments. Just as I am sure everyone else is also, my thoughts and prayers remain with the Boss and his family. Stay strong brother; we have your back!!
I have nothing but respect for what SJ 39 has accomplished in the NFL. But if I knew his acquisition was risky in nature, how did that little nugget get past the Branch?
For years, SJ 39 has had intermittent issues with his hamstrings and his groin. To date, none of it had been "serious" but it resulted in significant loss of practice time and many "game-day" decisions.
The Tee Pee prides itself on being open and honest as much as we can. I will warn Falcons Nation not to get "super" excited about the return of SJ39. We all know that the CFA will want to run the ball extensively which simply will put him (SJ3) at a higher risk of a re-occurrence of the injury.
Since we are talking about running backs, many are singing the praises of the performance of JR32 yesterday. It was a very defining moment for the young back BUT it again shows the glaring and troubling lack of innovation in this offensive playbook. And given that 80% of the playbook was in place when we hired DK, again, it comes back to the CFA.
How in the blue grasses of Kentucky can you not get JR32 more actively involved in the passing attack with screens and intermediate routes?
October 21st, 2013
6:01 pm
DK has that type of innovative capacity. I am not going to say he is Payton's equal but if we could simply rid ourselves of the restrictor plates that are the hands of the CFA, I think this offense could be even more diverse and dynamic.
JR32 is a weapon that definitely could be MUCH MORE valuable if used more extensively.
October 21st, 2013
6:13 pm
for those still ignoring the Falcons KGB regarding player injuries, I stated when Jax hurt his leg, it resembled another Jackson, Bo – it ended his career. I was 98% sure he would not be back as quick as was being promised. Just cast back 4 weeks prior to that – RW84 was stated to have an ankle injury THAT WAS NOT a high ankle sprain, and he would be fully ready for the start of the regular season. TD, MS are leopards who can not change their spots. Moving Nolan down reflects what?

"And gotta love the Missouri hammer (William Moore)….O'Brien.
And the church said Amen, Amen, and Amen.
This is the William Moore that I scouted when he was coming out of Mizzou. In his junior year, this is what we saw and he was all Big 12. His senior year was injury plagued causing him to drop in the draft. His counterpart, Sean Weatherspoon, was equally impressive.
If we can EVER get them both healthy and in a real effective defensive scheme, they could really be tremendous assets. MIZZOU is a very solid producer of defensive talent.

Paddy O, you nailed it and I do recall your statements. Even with a AARP card that is a tad over a month old, I'm still good. LOL.
Moving Nolan to the field level means absolutely nothing in my opinion. It is cosmetic at best.

SW nice job while the boss is away. Thank you….
I'll take a win any day. Hats off to MR2 and his stellar 20/26 3 TD day.
Penalties have to be stopped. We cannot afford to make ANY mistakes. HD83 balled out. Props to him; he looked speedy running his routes…I like him outside.
The Robiskie thing must be about nepotism. I'm not seeing the value but I'll reserve judgement for a little longer to confirm my suspicion that its a waste of time. I'll glady eat crow if proven otherwise.
What is the deal with Kevin Cone? He must suck, since they won't play him….or maybe he has an attitude? I don't know, but I expected to see him play WR with Davis and HD. WPP?
DJ showed up and made a nice catch to keep a drive alive. Somebody said get him off the PS and poof he was in the game. I would LOVE to know who/how/what/when went on to make that happen, just because we don't see it very often. Maybe at 1-4 Smitty is being forced to loosen up…. at somebody's insistence?
It was the Buc's, so I'm not getting too excited. They need to keep it going and get a W in AZ. There is no time to pat themselves on the back and act like W's are routine. They are not. Coach Genius needs to tone down, go into bunker mode and organize the troops for a reconnoiter of AZ, Carson Palmer and the rest of them. They are not world beaters but a diligent study of the enemy reveals no gimme.

"I saw a LOOK in Matt Ryan's eye–a change in demeanor–that could be a career-defining happening." Dude, I've been waiting for that for a couple of years – lose the timidity, stand up and take the team.
It's been my only knock against him. But in truth, all the great ones have taken the necessary time in 'scanning the field' to understanding the true lay of the professional land.
He had his best ever QBR yesterday. Can I say it again? He had his best ever QBR yesterday.
Im – f'in -pressive!!!
In addition to his change, WM, HD, JB, kudos to the max.
