Aurora Christian families rejoice over Sullivan Road campus refinancing
By Erika Wurst firstname.lastname@example.com November 4, 2012 6:36PM
Aurora Christian School supporter Dennis Duehning says a special prayer for the school on Sunday, November 4, 2012 at Aurora Christian School in Aurora IL. | Terence Guider-Shaw~For Sun-Times Media
Article Extras
Updated: December 6, 2012 6:07AM
Members of the Aurora Christian School family gathered in praise Sunday evening as their year-and-a-half-long financial battle drew to a close.
Administrators weren't handing back tuition deposits but handing out balloons instead, as they announced the refinancing of the school's Sullivan Road campus, and the end of their financial obligations to Fifth Third Bank.
"Probability was not in our favor, but God was," said Superintendent Collette House as she stood in front of nearly 100 supporters who turned up for the celebration. "So many little details came together to make this happen, it's amazing."
In 2011, Fifth Third Bank filed a lawsuit against the privately funded school for defaulting on a $250,000 loan. The school was in debt to the tune of $18 million after renovating the Sullivan Road campus less than a decade ago. The bank action meant the campus was on the verge of being lost.
As uncertainty loomed, administrators went as far as to return deposit and tuition checks to parents of more than 600 students who had already enrolled for the upcoming 2011-12 school year. Administrators began searching for alternative locations to hold class.
It was just weeks before classes started that administrators announced students would remain on the Sullivan Road campus for another year as negotiations with the bank were under way.
On Sunday, any financial fears the families continued to face were washed away. House announced that the school has no continuing debt to Fifth Third bank, after an East Coast lender helped refinance the campus for $8.9 million.
"It's still a big number," she said. "But it's less than half of our previous debt." House said that with a 610-student enrollment, the school will be able to handle the loan payments in a very secure fashioned.
Currently, the school serves about 620 students, but administrators hope that Aurora Christian's new financial security will help fill the halls to its 950-student capacity.
"I fully believe we're going to grow," she said. "We'll be bursting at the seams."
Help from elsewhere
The road to this juncture, however, wasn't smoothly paved. It took strangers coming together from across the country to make this dream come true, House said.
Eighteen months ago, a man in Florida was sitting in front of his computer when he came across a small Christian school in Illinois in need of a financial adviser. Tired of the banking industry, which he'd been a part of for 28 years, John Warren felt called to do something more meaningful with his life, he said.
"I felt maybe the reason God has me come across Aurora Christian School was so I could help and be of some assistance," he said — and he was. Warren worked tirelessly with Aurora Christian's board of advisers to help rectify the school's financial burden. Yet, despite their persistence, doors kept closing, he said.
It was when he elicited the help of an East Coast friend and financial lender that things began to turn around. That man, also a man of great faith, visited the campus, and within hours decided to lend a hand and financial assistance.
A year and a half of searching for an answer suddenly came to an end.
"God worked in so many ways," Warren said. But, if it wasn't for the Aurora Christian families — who never wavered in their faith — the financial reprieve would never have been possible.
"Without you, the financial ratios would have worked," he said. "If just a handful of you would not have been so dedicated," the school wouldn't have "gotten through these challenging times."

Actually when the quarterly large scale figures were announced, Sagitar immediately popped into my mind. He happened to be one of the very few NA figures I actually owned.
Actually when the quarterly large scale figures were announced, Sagitar immediately popped into my mind. He happened to be one of the very few NA figures I actually owned.
Sagitar doesn't look so big anymore when I see him with the MOTUC. I'm sure he'll make a decent bonus beast--providing they all sell "well." I mean we knew BC would be popular, but Mattel is taking it more cautiously than Janet Leigh took her showers after making Psycho. It remains to be seen if the more obscure beasts sell out fast enough for Mattel (I imagine they will sell out though).

I want one in a bad way.
2012 Create a character Runners up Mini-Sub please!!! I needs Bubblor and Major Header.
Bring on the master of Equinos!! I want Sagitar in MOTUC.
He's got a great personality in the cartoon and he is one strong character.
I certainly hope so the quarterly deluxe figures give me hope to get him.
Quote the Raven, Nevermore.
It can't rain all the time.
"Live the journey, for every destination is but a doorway to another."
Sagitar is incredibly cool... They HAVE to make him!! That is an order!!!
I would buy 2 of him!
A Want List of Sorts: Eldor, Imp, Filmation Hordak, Sweet Bee, Arrow, NA She-Ra, Spinnerella, Mermista, Gwildor, Tung Lasher, Ninjor, Lizard Man, Dragstor, Huntara, ... and all the other POP & NA characters.
Yes! Sagitar is my Favorite NA figure! I think his transforming could be done very easy via articulation.
I am not by any means an NA fan at all, but I would definitely get one of these if the Four Horsemen and Mattel can give him a serious update and I know they can. Would fit right in!
I DEFINITELY want Sagitar ! He'd be one of the best Galactic heroes to produce !
Plus, I think he'll certainly be a "large scale beast" in 2011. Not in 2010 though, since we get Battlecat, Tytus, Gygor, and a 4th large scale figure (my guess is it will be Panthor or Megator).
But I'm all for him anyway ! And I know for sure that the 4 Horsement will update him and make him even cooler ! So bring him on !
The Question is, will he have an Abcrunch? Just kidding
I think the 4H could make look really awesome.
I'm sure they'd find a way to make it look cool when He-Man rides on him.
I'd buy him in an instant
Awesome sticker included!
Most definitely. He's one of my favorite designs from NA.
I would love to see this odd entry into the line, but I cetainly do not want He-Man riding on another dude. Yikes!
Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti
Way to Go Club Etheria!
I want to echo the calls for him having his blue flip-up visor on his helmet! Make it so, Mattel!!!!
"Yep! And now I'm gonna blast ya!"
- Orko to Skeletor in "Lessons"
TOTALLY!! I think he would be really cool as one of the larger figures!! 4HM can make him look incredible!!
Mattel... Please bring back 200x styled stactions!!
gimme a sagitar!!!!
throw in a terror claw as well!
I want NA Skeletor and Rio Blast and I want them now!
big as battle cat or smaller. not a giant like tytus i hope not.
Tweet Me!
I've just changed my profile picture because we got Geldor in MOTUC!
Sagitar would make a cool addition!
I like the way the figure looks when he stands up right.
The MOTUC version must be as tall as the 12" Tytus
MY MOTUC WANTS: Gwildor, Rotar, Mermista, Angella, Peekablue, Spinerella, Perfuma, Master Sebrian, Sagitar, Tuskador, Darius, Mara, Kayo, Vizar, Nocturna, Spinwit, Artilla, Saurod, Ninjor, Blast-Attak, Hunga the Harpy, Evil Seed, Lord Masque, Twistoid, Dragstor, Imp, Vultak, Multi-Bot, Tung Lashor, Sssqueeeze, Lizorr, Hoove, Critta, Quakke, Butthead, Staghorn
I already got the only NA figure that I remember as a kid, the awesome Optikk! Most of the other characters look very boring to me except Sagitar. I think the 4H will make all of the NA characters awesome, but he is the only Galactic Protector that I am actually looking forward to. Centaurs are great and who doesn't love Goro....
My most wanted quarterly beast and NA figure.. but I think we won't see him for a while.. There's 4 quarterly beasts, and the only unannounced slot left is 40 bucks. I imagine that to be either for Megator, or for the Horde Troopers or some other two pack..
Unless it's a huuuge Sagitar! and I would be down with that. haha.
He rocks!
Make him now!

The Goose Girl by Shannon Hale
I spent a good part of May re-reading and thinking about The Goose Girl. It was my pick for book club, and whoever picks has to lead the discussion, you know.
I hadn't read The Goose Girl since my college childrens' literature class days, when I loved it. I must say, I still love it! I love it all over again!
Princess Anidori-Kiladra Talianna Isilee is the crown princess of Kildenree, next in line for the throne. However her early attempts to try to speak with birds (encouraged by her aunt) are less than undesirable according to her mother, the queen.
I really hesitate to say much more (though other plot summaries will) because I love the unfolding of the plot in this book. It is a retelling of a Grimm's fairy tale, and personally I find those always have some elements of surprise.
Ah, but I love this book! I credit it with turning me back onto reading, and with helping me realize that authors are living people, not just dead people.
And I love the element of romance in the book. It's so nice to get to see people actually get to know each other and fall in love, you know? Rather than the inexplicable love at first sight thing that happens sometimes. The writing is lovely, the plot well paced.
Two thumbs, five stars, glittery hearts and all. Recommended for girls and boys, men and women. If you want to borrow this book, I've got four copies. :-D

Tee hee. Yay! Are your four copies the same edition, or different editions? I have five copies, all different editions. Though... that makes me less comfortable with lending any of them. ;)
Shan-fans, unite!

All four are paperback. 2 Alison Jay covers, 1 new cover, and 1 cream cover with Alison Jay's work smaller in the middle. 3 of 4 are signed, all are lent out without regard to edition or signed status. I figure if a signed one gets ruined, I'll just have to get another. Oh darn! :D

So I really liked this book a lot, but I'm curios as to what elements you think would be appealing for guys? I'd be really hesitant to suggest it to Jason.

Tenn. AG lays out rules for blue lights in funerals
NASHVILLE — A legal opinion issued by the state Attorney General Bob Cooper outlines exactly when it's legal for blue flashing lights to be used as part of a funeral procession in Tennessee.
The opinion requested by Republican Sen. Mae Beavers of Mt. Juliet says that only full-time law enforcement officers can use blue flashing lights while escorting funeral processions — as long as it's part of their official duty to do so. That standard applies even if they are off-duty and being paid for private security.
The attorney general said non-law enforcement may not use blue or red flashing lights of any kind, though escort vehicles can be equipped with amber lights.

ROCKVILLE, Md. (August 25, 2010) – This morning in Rockville, Lt. Governor Brown addressed health insurance agents and business professionals at an 'Understanding Health Care Reform' forum hosted by Group Benefit Services, Inc. (GBS). Lt. Governor Brown, who co-chairs the Health Care Reform Coordinating Council and chairs the Health Quality and Cost Council, spoke to the attendees about Maryland's efforts to implement federal health reform.
"The first step to successfully implementing federal health care reform in Maryland is to educate our residents, businesses, health care providers and health industry professionals. Forums and programs like these allow us to empower Marylanders with the information they need to take advantage of the great opportunities that accompany health reform," said Lt. Governor Brown. "Governor O'Malley and I will continue to work with our partners to ensure that Maryland is prepared for both the challenges and the benefits of health reform so we remain a national leader in health care."
Last month, Lt. Governor Brown and Maryland Health and Mental Hygiene Secretary John M. Colmers presented Governor Martin O'Malley with the Health Care Reform Coordinating Council's interim report, which projects federal health care reform will save Maryland taxpayers $829 million over the next decade and cut the number of uninsured Marylanders in half by 2017.
"At GBS we are proud to sponsor and even more proud to have distinguished guests like Lt. Governor Brown provide input to our educational meetings as we bring extensive health care reform outreach efforts to Maryland citizens and professionals," said William F. Simmons, President of GBS. "We extend an appreciative welcome to Lt. Governor Anthony Brown, as we await his direction and that of his Health Care Reform Coordinating Council toward reforming Maryland's health care system in the light of federal reforms. GBS is anxious to continue our role be an instrumental and positive part of the process."
With its corporate offices in Hunt Valley, GBS has grown since its founding in 1980 to become one of the largest Employee Benefit Plan Administrators of employee benefit plans in the Mid-Atlantic region. GBS sponsors meetings as an educational initiative to deliver important health care reform information to Maryland citizens. Tomorrow morning, Lt. Governor Brown will speak at a similar GBS forum at Sheppard Pratt Conference Center in Towson.
Governor O'Malley tasked Lt. Governor Brown to lead the O'Malley-Brown administration's health care portfolio. Brown chairs the Maryland Health Quality and Cost Council and co-chairs the HCRCC with Secretary Colmers. During the 2010 legislative session, Brown championed efforts to pass the Maryland False Health Claims Act of 2010 which will help the state recover in FY11 over $46.5 million of Medicaid funds that were stolen from taxpayers. Brown also led efforts to create the Patient Centered Medical Home program that offers providers with incentives to spend more time with patients and focus more closely on preventative care. In 2008, Lt. Governor Brown – a Colonel in the U.S. Army Reserves and the nation's highest-ranking elected official to serve a tour of duty in Iraq – partnered with members from both parties in the General Assembly to pass the Veterans Behavioral Health Act which improved and expanded mental and behavioral health services for veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan.

Why all the interest in spring games?
When the offense looks good, couldn't it mean that the defense is bad? Can fans know when an offensive coordinator is actually trying to put up points… and when he's just trying to get a left guard's handling of a specific play on film? To the fans it's a game, but to the coaches it's a practice.
Yet spring games have become a staple of April television. And that's especially true in the SEC:
Florida's spring game — Tomorrow, 12pm ET, Sun Network
South Carolina's spring game — Tomorrow, 1pm ET (ESPN3.com)
LSU's spring game — Tomorrow, 4pm ET, ESPN
Mississippi State's spring game — Tomorrow, 6pm ET, CSS
Georgia's spring game — April 16th, 1pm ET, CSS
Tennessee's spring game — April 16th, 2pm ET
Alabama's spring game — April 16th, 3pm ET, ESPNU
Arkansas' spring game — April 16th, 3pm ET, ESPN
Auburn's spring game — April 16th, 3pm ET, CSS
Ole Miss' spring game — April 16th, 5pm ET (tape delay on CSS)
Vanderbilt's spring game — April 17th, 7pm ET
Kentucky's spring game — April 23rd, 3pm ET
Seven of the league's 12 spring games will carried live on television. One more will be tape delayed. And another will air live on the internet.
But there's a tradeoff for that added exposure. For one, the television networks want the action to look more like a game and less like a glorified practice.
"In the old days, you got more accomplished in the final practice," Les Miles told The New Orleans Times-Picayune. "You pointed specifics that you just had to get accomplished. You could probably gone three practices in a week. That's the ideal, rather waste a practice dividing your teams and going through some of the specific issues that a team runs into when they divide the players for a competitive game."
"Is it good," the coach asked rhetorically. "Yeah, I think it's good. I think our guys love playing on television. It gives an air of a big game, and a want to play better. I think it's good. I know our guys enjoy it."
It's just that coaches might be able to accomplish even more if that final practice of spring weren't geared toward a television audience.

Carroll announces bid for 8th District commission seat10:00 am | October 24, 2013
Robert Carroll has announced his intent to seek one of three 8th-district Carter County Commission positions in next year's general election.
Carroll was in management and worked as a construction professional.
He also owned a heating, plumbing and air business in Rockhill, S.C., for about 15 years.
Carroll said he retired in 2009 and moved back home.
"I was born and raised in Carter County," he said.
Upon his return, he said he was disappointed to find county government in disarray.
"When I moved back, I took a look at what was going on in county government," Carroll said. "It needs to be fixed. I believe, personally, it can be fixed by people, like myself, who know and love Carter County and have roots in Carter County. I want what's best for the county."

ALAMEDA, CA -- A person familiar with the fines says former Oakland Raiders coach Tom Cable has filed a grievance to recover $120,000 that the team penalized him during the final year of his contract.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on Sunday on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the situation. The story was first reported by ESPN.
The person did not say why the Raiders withheld the money from Cable's paychecks. ESPN reported owner Al Davis was upset that the Raiders lost two days of organized team activities in June for
violating NFL rules.
The Raiders announced on Jan. 4 that they would not exercise a $5 million, two-year option to keep Cable as coach.
Raiders senior executive John Herrera declined comment.
Cable coached at the University of Idaho from 2000-2003.

Dorothea Lange's Funeral Cortege, End of an Era in a Small Valley Town, California, alludes to an inner, individual solitude in the face of historical changes, while similarly, Hungarian Tamas Dezso captures a lone night watchman cocooned in an RV trailer, sheltered and cutoff from global shifts. The exhibition features a grid of Michael Wolf's Tokyo Compression portraits of subway riders, windows into private worlds in the midst of the commuter crush, along side his signature architectural images that address voyeurism and the density of urban life. The photographer's own window is explored in Richard Gordon's image shot from Robert Frank's window, and Josef Sudek's poetic, emotionally laden series photographed from inside his studio.
Inside/Outside will feature a selection of contemporary and vintage photography by the artists Holly Andres, Jeff Brouws, Charles Clifford, Tamas Dezso, Elliott Erwitt, Debbie Fleming Caffery, Oliver Gagliani, Richard Gordon, Karel Hajek, Tibor Honty, Ken Josephson, Dorothea Lange, Helen Levitt, Emila Medkova, Josef Sudek, Drahotin Sulla, Janos Szasz, William Henry Fox Talbot, Brian Ulrich, Edward Weston, and Michael Wolf.

Obama unbound
WASHINGTON — The news-media herd is stunned to discover Barack Obama is a man of the left. After 699 TelePrompTer presidential speeches, the commentariat apparently was still oblivious. Until Monday's inaugural address, that is.
Where has everyone been these last four years? The only surprise is that Obama chose his second inaugural, generally an occasion for "malice toward none" ecumenism, to unveil so uncompromising a left-liberal manifesto.

Some products make claims that are hard to believe. Take, for example, commercials you may have seen about books and videos that supposedly can teach your baby to read or a three-minute workout that will make your belly disappear.
If you doubted those sales pitches, you weren't alone. The Federal Trade Commission recently challenged the claims made by the marketers of the Your Baby Can Read books and videos and the Ab Circle Pro workout machine.
As a result of the investigations, the FTC is making refunds available to customers who bought those products and were not satisfied.
The commission's lawsuit against Your Baby Can LLC of Carlsbad, Calif., a few weeks ago alleged the company made false or unsubstantiated statements in its advertisements and product packaging when it represented, either expressly or by implication, that its Your Baby Can Read products could teach children as young as 9 months to read and give them a head start in learning that would allow them to perform better in school.
Advertisements included testimonials such as a mother saying her daughter read her first Harry Potter book at age 3.
In the settlement, Your Baby Can did not admit to or deny the allegations but agreed to stop using the term "Your Baby Can Read."
A message on the company's website says it has "shut down all operations and is no longer in business." The settlement had imposed a $185 million judgment, equal to the company's sales of the products since 2008, but that judgment was suspended due to the company's financial condition.
It agreed to pay $500,000, which the FTC says may be used for providing refunds to customers. Your Baby Can Read cost about $200 and was sold online, through infomercials and at major retailers.
Just days before that lawsuit, the commission also took on the marketers of Ab Circle Pro alleging the abdominal workout machine was deceptively advertised.
It said marketers of the gym equipment boasted that using it for three minutes a day would cut 10 pounds in two weeks and was equivalent to doing 100 sit-ups.
"Weight loss is hard work, and telling consumers otherwise is deceptive," David Vladeck, the commission's director of consumer protection, said in a statement.
The commission sued several companies and individuals involved in the marketing of the product or that shared in the proceeds of its sales. It accused most of them of making false or unsupported claims about Ab Circle Pro's ability to cause rapid or substantial weight and fat loss.
The defendants are prohibited, to varying degrees, from making certain claims or misrepresenting the benefits of exercise products.
Several of the defendants, while not admitting wrongdoing, agreed to pay between $15 million and $25 million to settle the case. The final amount collected will depend on the volume of refund requests.
Direct Entertainment Media Group, which marketed and distributed Ab Circle Pro for Fitness Brands Inc., said in a statement the defendants "do not agree with the allegations" and settled the claims "to avoid protracted legal proceedings."
The Ab Circle Pro sold for about $200 to $250 through infomercials and for varying prices at stores. You can file for a refund if you were not satisfied with the product. Proof of purchase is not required, but you could face perjury charges if you file a false claim. The amount of your refund will depend on the number of claims filed, and there is no timetable for when you'll get your money.
If taking vitamins is part of your family's health regimen, you may have some money coming to you as a result of yet another federal investigation, this one into the health claims of children's vitamins.
The commission had filed a complaint in 2010 against NBTY Inc. and two subsidiaries regarding several Disney and Marvel heroes-themed vitamins, most of them in gummy form.
It alleged the product packaging and advertisements misrepresented that the vitamins contain a "significant amount" of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), a polyunsaturated Omega-3 fatty acid, when the vitamins contained only a trace amount.
The vitamins involved include Disney Princess, Winnie the Pooh and Tigger & Pooh; Disney Pixar Cars, Finding Nemo, Wall-E and Toy Story; and Marvel Heroes Complete and Marvel Heroes Gummies. They were sold at drug and grocery stores and online for about $4 to $8 a bottle.
In a settlement, the companies agreed not to misrepresent, either expressly or by implication, that their products contain a specific ingredient or amount of an ingredient. They did not admit wrongdoing.
The companies agreed to pay $2.1 million toward customer refunds, and the FTC now is taking applications for those refunds. To be eligible, you must have purchased the vitamins between May 1, 2008 and Sept. 30, 2010. No proof of purchase is required to file a claim. The amount of your refund will depend on how many claims are filed.
The deadline to file a claim is Oct. 12.

Can you add a pciture? I am not sure if I understand the situation.
I have natural gas pool heater connection at the inlet close to gas meter.It is in T shape.
At the T,One connection to house supply and the other to pool heater.
City inspection guy failed inspection saying install full size T at house side of gas meter line.I am sure natural gas is supplied at some pressure wether you put T connection at the source or take one side T off and put T connection on pipe entering the house should't make any difference.You could easily slide that T joint to source inlet and you have the same situation what we started with.This is the law of mass transfer.Total gas comming into residence
=Gas supply to pool heater+gas supply to house.
How can it reduce the gas supply to house completely when pool heater is operating?
I am sure pressure can't drop to nill on house side of pipe.
Can you please Give me some input to this problem.Will it really reduce gas supply to house?

Can you add a pciture? I am not sure if I understand the situation.
Hard to tell without seeing what you have. What are the BTU requirements of stuff on each branch? And, what size pipe and T is it? What size pipes feed each side? The pressure will only be constant when no flow. The regulator will try to keep the pressure up, but it also depends a lot on the length of the pipe, it's diameter, how many turns it takes, and the BTU (flow) requirements. If there are reductions anywhere, it can mess up the flow.

Have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. We would have to see where AND how that tee was installed. Gas behaves slightly differently than water, but the codes equate the two.

Past top-10 prospects offer insight into Royals' Myers dilemma
Story Highlights
Kansas City is reportedly dangling Wil Myers in trade talks to get a pitcher
The chances of Myers turning into a superstar are very slim
Only six top-10 prospects from 2000-05 look to have a case for the Hall of Fame
Desperate for pitching to go with a young lineup that already possesses significant potential, the Royals are reportedly dangling top prospect Wil Myers in the hope of landing an ace for their makeshift rotation. The leading recent rumor had Kansas City talking to the Red Sox about a trade that would send Myers to Boston for Jon Lester; the Rays' James Shields has also been mentioned as a potential return in a Myers trade.
This has led to a lot of debate about the actual value of a blue-chip prospect such as Myers who has yet to have significant or, in his case, any exposure in the major leagues. In 2012, the soon-to-be-22-year-old catcher-turned-center-fielder hit .314/.387/.600 with 37 home runs in Double- and Triple-A. Myers was ranked the game's 10th-best prospect by Baseball America prior to the 2011 season and, despite falling in the rankings after a poor, injury-plagued season that year, is sure to find himself safely ensconced in the top 10 when the new prospect lists come out in February.
To get an idea of how significant that ranking might be in terms of predicting Myers' future success, I looked at the careers of every player who made Baseball America's top 10 from 2000 to 2005.
A couple of quick notes on my method: I stopped at 2005 because that is the most recent prospect class in which every player has reached his prime. The youngest member of that class, Felix Hernandez, will be 27 in 2013 and already has a Cy Young award and 98 career wins. The 2006 list includes Justin Upton, who turned 25 in late August and could still emerge as either a superstar or a disappointment. Also, what follows is not intended as an audit of Baseball America. In general, most top 100 prospect lists have far more names in common than not, and that's especially true in the top 10, just as you'll find more agreement about the identity of the best player in baseball than about the 97th-best player.
In the six years from 2000 to 2005, 48 players appeared in the top 10 of Baseball America's annual prospects rankings, 31 of them hitters, 17 of them pitchers. Of those 48, 25 have thus far made an All-Star team, 11 have won a Silver Slugger, seven have won a Gold Glove, three won the Rookie of the Year, three have won their league's Most Valuable Player award, two have won the Cy Young award and one has won the Rolaids Relief Man Award twice. (To see the full list of 48 players to make BA's top 10 prospects lists in those six seasons, click here.)
The average career bWAR (Baseball-Reference's Wins Above Replacement) of those 48 players is 15.9. The two players from that group whose career bWAR totals fall closest to that average are retired Phillies slugger Pat Burrell (16.4) and former Rays ace Scott Kazmir (15.2), who is still just 28 but whose career was derailed by shoulder and back injuries in 2011.
Using that average career bWAR as the cutoff, 28 of those 48 players, 58 percent, fell below that standard, making them something between a disappointment and an outright bust. The latter category includes five players who failed to post a positive bWAR in the majors and two more who never made it to the Show. Here are the 13 players from that group who have compiled a career bWAR of less than 5.0:
|Biggest Top 10 Prospect Busts
These are the 10 prospects who went on to accumulate the highest bWAR:
|Top 10 Prospects by bWAR
If prospect projections were a precise science, one could expect to see a large amount of overlap between the 48 top-10 prospects from 2000 to 2005 and a list of the top 48 major leaguers who lost their rookie (and thus prospect) status during those same seasons. To find out just how much overlap there actually has been, I made a list of the top 48 players, as ranked by career bWAR, who lost their rookie status between 2000 and '05.
Of that second group of 48, just 16 were among the top-10 prospects from those years. Add in Josh Hamilton, who didn't make his major league debut until 2007 but has a career bWAR that would sneak onto the bottom of that list, and the 48 top-10 prospects from 2000 to 2005 make up just 35 percent (17) of those top 48 major leaguers.
As mentioned above, 58 percent of those top-10 prospects can be classified as disappointments or worse, meaning 42 percent were better than that. Thus, we're starting to zero in on the chance of a top-10 prospect fulfilling his promise in the major leagues as somewhere between the 35 percent above and that 42 percent. The players who can be found in the gray area in between are men such as former top-10 prospects Burrell, Alex Rios, Carlos Peña and Vernon Wells, players who have vacillated between boom and bust over the course of their careers. That 35 percent chance of stardom is actually very good, but it's far from a sure thing, and the chances of that top 10 prospect building a Hall of Fame case, which is often the fear when trading blue chip talent, is far lower.
Using an admittedly subjective standard, there are six former top-10 prospects from 2000-05 who seem likely to engender a lively Hall of Fame debate: CC Sabathia, Joe Mauer, Felix Hernandez, Ichiro Suzuki, Mark Teixeira and Prince Fielder. As of now, chances are that only the first four, comprising eight percent of the original group of 48, will actually wind up with a plaque in Cooperstown.
Meanwhile, a look at that list of the top 48 players by career bWAR to lose their prospect status between 2000 and 2005, reveals that some of the game's best players were never considered sure-thing prospects. Albert Pujols, who leads that group by a mile with 88.5 career wins above replacement (Suzuki is second at 54.6), never broke Baseball America's top 40. Third-place Chase Utley never made the top 80. Ian Kinsler topped out at number 98. Johan Santana and Mark Buehrle, both of whom are in the top 10 of that list, never cracked BA's top 100. Nor did Robinson Cano, Matt Holliday, Kevin Youkilis, Dan Haren or Brandon Webb, the last of whom finished in the top two in the National League Cy Young voting three years in a row before a shoulder injury effectively ended his career.
So what does all that mean for Myers? It means he has a very good chance of becoming a very good major league player, but a significantly greater chance of being a disappointment, and a better chance of being a total bust than of putting together a Hall of Fame career. It also means that all of those possibilities remain on the table. Myers' performance this past season gave every indication that he should open the 2013 season in a major league lineup, but it could be years before we know which path his career will take.
If the Royals flip Myers for an ace this winter, that pitcher may depart via free agency before Myers even hits his stride in the major leagues. On the other hand, Myers' trade value might never be higher and the Royals' talented young lineup and bullpen and questionable rotation just might coalesce behind that ace to make the Royals a surprise playoff team in 2013. The former seems more likely, but Myers' major league success is no more of a safe bet than the latter.

SOUTH AFRICA: Hunt of a Life Time
First Archery African Hunt
In September I will be archery hunting Wildebeest, Impala, Warthog in South Africa.
What is a good broadhead to use I shoot a Mission-Venture @60lbs.
The above is what I posted on March 3, 2012. Thanks for all the advise. I used Muzzy 100 gr. 3 blade and they worked great. Below is my story.
By PAUL DAVIS
Outdoors Editor, Dailey American Republic.
When Randy Wallis entered an online contest August of 2011, he did so without much thought. He was, after all, only on the Shiver Shield clothing website looking for cold-weather hunting gear.
I'd completely forgot about it, said Wallis, who couldn't even remember what the prize in the drawing was.
On Christmas eve 2011, Wallis, a now retired police dispatcher ater 36 years of service with the Poplar Bluff Police Dept., got a call from the Police station telling him to call Shiver Shield owner Brian McFarlane.
He wanted to congratulate me, Wallis said, but I didn't know why.
That's when McFarlane dropped a bombshell on Wallis: he'd won the forgotten online contest and was being treated to a 10-day big game hunt in South Africa for a wildebeest, a male and female impala and a warthog.
At first, Wallis was skeptical, but after talking for a while, his excitement grew. However, the tone quickly turned to doubt because of one small potential problem: he's wheelchair-bound, the result of a diving accident in 1969 that left him a quadraplegic.
Wallis, who offered to forfeit the hunt if necessary, was relieved when McFarlane told him they'd make it work.
Wallis, who enjoys archery hunting, prefers to hunt with a compound bow. He practiced almost daily with his newly-purchased Mission Venture. To help him on his safari, the Mission Archery Company and Rednecks, Racks and Reels in Poplar Bluff, Mo., donated a sight, arrow quiver and stabilizer to complete the outfit.
I'm grateful for that, Wallis said.
In early September, he and his wife, Gwen Wallis, boarded the plane to Johannesburg, South Africa, where they met their host, William Taylor, owner of Taylor Safaris.
The plan was for Wallis and a guide to hunt from permanent blinds near water holes so he could hunt with his bow. Taylor also had a loaner a 7mm rifle available so Wallis could hunt from a truck if the water holes did not work out.
He wanted to use a bow if at all possible, said Wallis, who noted he'd bow hunted off and on since 1975 and had never killed anything with a bow.
After a quick equipment check the first morning, Wallis and McFarlane headed out to a water-hole blind on a 15,000-acre property in the Limpopo Province, in the northeast corner of the country.
The herd of wildebeest was coming in to the water, and I realized one of them was a lot bigger than the others, Wallis recalled.
After drawing his bow and letting down multiple times because other animals were always in the way, Wallis finally got the shot opportunity he was looking for and let his arrow fly.
The hit was perfect, resulting in his first-ever bow kill.
We were high-fiving in the blind, he said. It felt good to finally take something with a bow.
They had to wait to go get his trophy, because in Africa, you can't leave your location until the outfitter comes back to get you, Wallis said.
In the meantime, Wallis said, a herd of impalas approached the water, giving him another shot opportunity.
The male impala, he said, ran about 100 yards and fell.
After trackers arrived on the scene, Wallis posed for photographs with his impala while others searched for his wildebeest, which ultimately ran about 400 yards before expiring.
Better yet, Wallis would learn from Taylor his wildebeest, with its 31 and one-half-inch spread, likely would score in Safari Club International top 15 for archery kills.
I got my first archery kill, and for it to potentially be in the record book, really felt good, said Wallis.
On his second evening of hunting, Wallis had the opportunity to take a jackal with his bow at no charge, which he did willingly. That hide, he said, will be tanned.
On the fourth day, Taylor offered to upgrade Wallis second impala from a female to another male, which he took that day.
While not hunting, Wallis and his wife enjoyed learning about the culture in South Africa.
It's a very poor country, and that's part of the memories we'll have ... the kids playing in the roadways and things like that, he said.
The variety of animals around the blind each day, Wallis said, was interesting. He enjoyed spending a lot of time just watching the baboons, zebras, gemsbok and more. That's when he decided he wanted to take a kudu, the only animal he would have to pay for on the trip.
After a few close calls, but no shots, with kudu, Wallis finally had an opportunity to shoot a large bull on the seventh day of his journey.
We had three really nice bulls come in, but they spooked initially, he said. they came back to the water, and I drew back and hit one high.
A three-hour search by Taylor's trackers and professional hunter Robbie Guthrie didn't turn up the kudu, causing Wallis to be worried they wouldn't find him.
Three days later, on the last day of the safari, Wallis and Taylor were back in a water-hole blind, waiting for a warthog to show up and thinking about the kudu he'd shot but still hadn't been found.
Not long after getting to the blind, a pickup driven by Guthrie arrived. The outfitter had spotted an injured gemsbok bedded nearby, and offered Wallis the chance to take it free of charge.
He was so nervous being out in the open, Wallis said, noting it was difficult to approach the animal quietly in his wheelchair because of the red, sandy clay ground.
His shot went a little high, he said, and required a followup arrow to finish off the gemsbok, but Wallis was elated.
To me, it was a trophy, he said.
He returned to the blind for one last chance at a warthog, but found several large eland were constantly running the hogs away from the water.
A big female warthog came in, and she finally gave me a shot, and it was a good one, Wallis recalled.
And then, Wallis got the news he'd wanted to hear for three days: his kudu had been found, thanks to Guthrie's Jack Russell Terrier, Duncan.
That was my best day, Wallis said. We got the gemsbok, the warthog and recovered my kudu.
All the meat from Wallis animals, he said, was divided between the outfitter and a local seller.
As far as the trophies, he's having everything mounted, Wallis said. The cost of one shoulder mount, and the import fees back to the United States, also were covered under his prize package.
With his hunt of a lifetime behind him, Wallis is thankful to those who made it happen and enjoys reflecting back on his adventure.
He's like to thank Brian and Becky McFarlane of Shiver Shield and William Taylor of Taylor Safaris because if I hadn't have won this trip, we'd never have been able to afford it, he said. They were all great people who bent over backwards to make it all work, and they went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable. We have new lifelong friends.
We had a great time, and I'd do it all again in a heartbeat, he said.
I made a few guesses on the spelling issues. I hope I got them right. Brickburn

What an adventure! Great story, sounds like a fantastic time with great people, and excellent trophies. They all look great and will be super reminders of this adventure as mounts on the wall. I love to hear of hunters with challenges, and the people who can help them overcome those challenges, having the time of their life. It gives me hope should misfortune happen in an accident. Great life lessons for our wounded Warriors coming back from Iraq and Afghanistan for sure.

Green statement
This statement is the first hospital bill that will include a summary of charges. You will only receive one of these for each date of service. The exception to this is if your child is having therapy services and is categorized as a "recurring patient". In that case, you will have one account that spans an entire month.
Blue statement
This is a balance forward statement of any new activity recorded under that account number (cross reference against green statement). You will receive these until the balance due for this date of service is resolved or the account is referred for collections.
Purple statement
This is the physician bill. All services are billed on one statement for all children associated with a parent. If each parent has a guarantor account, then there will be two separate statements. This statement is also a balance forward statement and only new activity since the last printing will be included. This includes new services, payments and adjustments.

Éric Maltaite learned the comic trade from his father, Willy Maltaite, the comic artist better known as Will. After brief appearances in Tintin and BideVision, he started out helping his father on some of the 'Tif et Tondu' stories. Eventually, in 1978, he teamed up with his father's scenarist, Stephen Desberg, to start working on his own comics. After humorous series like 'Jules et Gil' and 'La Famille Hérodius', Maltaite and Desberg came up with the espionnage series '421', starring special agent Jimmy Plant (a name derived from Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page and Robert Plant).
The graphics of the series were at first strongly influenced by the humorous style of Will. Eventually, the artwork turned more realistic, as did the scenarios. In the mid-1980s, Maltaite also started a collaboration with Denis Lapière to start the exotic series 'Mono Jim', at first published in L'Écho des Savanes. After quiting '421' and their affiliation with publisher Dupuis in 1992, Maltaite and Desberg continued their collaboration at P & T Productions with the series 'Carmen Lamour'.
Maltaite reappeared in Spirou with 'Nationale Zéro' (scripts by Janssens, 1995) and 'Dédé et Dédé' (scripts by Jean-Michel Thiriet, 1997). In 1999 he also returned to L'Écho des Savanes with erotic stories like 'Robinsonne, la Naufragée' and '1001 Nuits de Schéhérazade', both published in album by Albin Michel. Together with Jean-Pierre Autheman, Maltaite created the action mini-series 'Zambada', published by Glénat from 2001. Éric Maltaite lives and works in Spain. In 2006, he returned to the humorous genre with 'Les Campeurs', a series scripted by Dugomier and published by Bamboo.

Two of the richest men in the world are sticking-up for brick-and-mortar businesses big and small, which have long complained that their online competitors have an unfair advantage because they don't have to collect state sales taxes.
Warren Buffett and Bill Gates told CNBC that the Internet sales-tax bill, which passed the Senate on Monday, makes sense.

The bill, which still needs to clear the House, would empower states to require businesses to collect taxes for products they sell on the Internet, in catalogs, and through radio and TV ads.
Under current law, states can only require retailers to collect sales taxes if the store has a physical presence in the state.
The measure faces opposition in the House from Republicans who view it as a tax increase.
"It's very unfair to the person who has a physical store that not only do they have those expenses but that the [online business] isn't collecting sales tax," Microsoft Chairman Gates said in a "Squawk Box" interview Monday.

In addition, he said, the bill "is a good thing for state budgets."
Under the legislation, the sales taxes would be sent to the states where the shopper lives.
Appearing on CNBC with Gates in Omaha Neb., Berkshire Hathaway's Buffett agreed. "I think the fairness argument is compelling. You've got thousands of merchants here in Omaha and have people walk into those stores, look at the item, and then order it from somebody out of state and then not pay a sales tax."
He added, "To have that as a differential in their cost is just unfair."
The legislation, formally called the Marketplace Fairness Act, exempts businesses making under $1 million annually in out-of-state sales.
