The Graves Family (The Graves Family)
The Graves family has just moved to Union City, and they definitely don't fit in. With giant spiders in the living room, a voracious Venus flytrap named Phoebe in the kitchen, and a secret laboratory in the basement, the neighbors are afraid to visit! Except for Seth and Sara Miller, the kids next door, who decide to help them make friends. Maybe if Mr. Graves gives all th ...more

When I asked the librarian to help me find the perfect book to read to 4th graders, she could not have found a more perfect book in length, detail, and creativeness. Polacco created a hilariously imaginative story with great illustrations to go along with it. The Graves Family was just the right book for 8-10 year olds to either read or listen to. Last week I got the awesome opportunity to read this book as a Mystery Reader for my daughter's 4th grade class and the kids had a great time laughing ...more

The Graves Family is a good idea, but it is poorly executed as a picture book. It would work better as an early reader book.

This book is hysterical. I loved the pictures and crazy story. It is about a family that moves into town that is very different from the rest of the town and their house resembles a haunted house. I love how Polacco presents morals in her story so subtly without just flat out stating them. The theme of this story is to accept others regardless of whether or not they fit the social norm. Kids will love the funny story and crazy pictures. It would be a great story to read during a unit on acceptin ...more

However, when their neighbors children makes friends with the oldest child, Ronnie, the Graves' family begins to feel more optimistic. Mrs. Graves is then invited to a gardening club where she brings her Venus Flytrap for show and tell. However, her flytrap causes a catastrophe and it seems that no one likes her anymo ...more

Patricia Polacco is a great children's author who has unique, and original ways of teaching important values to children. In this book, she describes a family that is strange and different; they do not fit into the new neighborhood in which they just moved in. Brave enough, their neighbors Sara and Seth went over and asked the new neighbor's son to play, and on that day the town was introduced to the new Graves' family. The book is a creative tale about how the Graves' family changed the way the ...more

Patricia Polacco writes this book as a way to provide a (fictional) background to the haunted house she created and stars in every year as her own character "Mrs. Graves".
When the graves family comes to Union City, none of the townspeople are willing to try to befriend them due to their strange ways until Seth and Sara visit Ronnie, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Graves. As they get to know him and his family, they realize that although the family is very odd and at times a bit spooky, all they really ...more

What fun it was to read this creative and delightfully silly book. The Graves family pack the spiders, venus fly trap and friends and head for Lake Bleakmere. Having great fun collecting rare specimens, the Grave's family take a break to eat some of Mamma Grave's famous Jum Jills.

What happens when your house is colored blood red? Will you fit in with the others? Will you be ashamed? Do you think that your neighbors will be afraid of you? According to Patricia Polacco, the Graves family has to face all these things and much more.
The story begins when the Graves family moves into a creaky old blood red house on the hill at night. Everyone in Union City is afraid of them because they are different and weird. They keep endangered species in their house and they have a labora ...more

We really enjoy Patricia Polacco's work, but did not love this one. Other reviewers have said that 4th graders enjoy this book and perhaps that had something to do with it. My first grader got somewhat bored with it and didn't' find it very funny. I felt it lacked the depth that Polacco's other works show. So take my rating with a grain of salt, it might be much better for a different audience.

This book is funny and interesting and holds a lot of surprises that children would find funny. The book can be a bit lengthy but it is worth it. As a read aloud this would be a good book to inspire kids to write their own "creepy" story or tell about a time this made them think of. The illustrations bring the text to life. This is a very enjoyable book.

Let's just say that the Graves family is unusual! This book is funny and I could see kids eating it up. Given the text, it is definitely for an older group of kids. I see 8-10 year olds mentioned frequently. I like the hidden lesson about not judging people because they are "unique" as well.

I suppose this could be enjoyed for Halloween, even though it's not really a Halloween book. There is a "haunted" house though.

Patricia Polacco does a nice job of showing how all families and homes can have something to offer-- even if those things are different from what others may expect or value. A funny picture book that would be especially appropriate around Halloween.

Shelves: childrens, pets, 2010, gardens-flowers
This is a fun story that introduces us to the Graves Family - an odd bunch of characters reminiscent of Chas Addams (Charles Addams) and his famous odd family, The Addams Family. Although it is the same length as the sequel, The Graves Family Goes Camping, it seems longer, and I know we liked the sequel a bit more. Overall, though, it is an interesting and fun story with some very strange and creepy characters. Though not specifically about Halloween, it would be a great time to read this book.

Shelves: fiction-picture-book
This is a cute fiction picture book that shows that even the scariest or toughest people still want to fit in or have people to care about them. This family moved into town, and were very strange. Their house was filled with spiders, bats, and Venus fly-traps. The father was a scientist, and the mother made all plants die and wither, and cooked with extremely strange ingredients. However, in the end, they just wanted to have friends like everyone else.

The Graves Family have many traits in common with the Addam's Family, they're creep, kooky and all the rest. The only difference is the Graves family has yet again relocated to find a town they can fit into. This quirky story was to long in picture book format, small chapter book would have worked much better. Keep up the weird Graves family! People can love you are leave you but the message of staying true to who you are is forever.
Jun 04, 2012 Mary Anjali rated it really liked it
This is a really great book to launch a Science or Writing lesson, the story introduces many different types of plants, animals, insects and the process of experimentation. Also, for writing the students could try to make their own recipe and draw a picture of one of the mother's kooky dishes at dinner. This is a great story about acceptance and learning that everyone has a their own unique qualities.

I have read many of Patricia Polacco's books and have never been disappointed. In this book the Graves family moves to Union village. They are different t from the other people in the village and they are outcasts of a sort until the children from across the street come to play. Interesting story about appreciating the differences in people. Definitely for Halloween.

We didn't really care for this book....it was long and kind of boring. My daughter didn't even want to finish it. Maybe it would have been better as a read on your own book rather then a read out loud book.
There were good ideas in it....but it just didn't really interest me or my daughter.

This book was hilarious. A fun read for me and the children, with captivating pictures that fit the style of writing very nicely. I like it especially because the underlying theme is one of acceptance even if someone seems strange to begin with, and I can sympathize with that message all day long!

Is it okay that I rated a Polacco book "okay?" Somehow I feel that I am letting my old friend down. Then again, she let me down on this fluffy, too-juvenile-even-though-it's-a-picture-book book.
There, I said it. Let the rotten tomatoes fly.

Pressure on EU to Label Hezbollah Terrorists after Bulgaria Bombing
Thus far, the response from the EU has been disappointing, if not surprising.
Lady Catherine Ashton, the EU's representative for foreign and security affairs, issued a statement shortly after the Bulgarian report was made public.
Ashton's response was that "the implications of the investigation need to be assessed seriously as they relate to a terrorist attack on EU soil, which resulted in the killing and injury of innocent civilians."
Ashton signalled that the EU will take its time "assessing" and "discussing" before taking any formal action, because of the "need for a reflection over the outcome of the investigation," according to a Bulgarian news source.
One argument against listing Hezbollah as a terrorist organization is the fear that it might destabilize Lebanon, as Hezbollah is a part of the Lebanese government. This is apparently the concern voiced by France.
A final interesting twist is that, according to the Saudi-owned pan-Arabian media outlet Al-Arabiya, the Lebanese government has pledged to cooperate with Bulgaria in determining how to evaluate the report. Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Bikati said, "Lebanon trusts that the Bulgarian authorities will undertake a serious evaluation of the results of the investigation and affirms that it is ready to cooperate with Bulgaria to shed light on the circumstances of the attack."Lori Lowenthal Marcus

I had lunch recently with a businessman who runs his own company. As we talked, the subject of wisdom kept popping up in our conversation. We were agreeing on the value of certain qualities that cannot be learned in school — things like intuition, diligence, integrity, perception, consistency, loyalty — when he, again, mentioned wisdom.
So I asked, "How does a person get wisdom? I realize we are to be men of wisdom, but few people ever talk about how it is acquired."
His answer was quick and to the point: "Pain."
I paused and looked deeply into his eyes. Without knowing the specifics, I knew his one-word answer was not theoretical. He and pain had gotten to know each other rather well.
As he told me of the things he has been dealing with in recent months, some professional and some personal, I told him he had spent sufficient hours in the crucible to have earned his Ph.D. in wisdom! It was then I quoted from the first chapter of James:
Consider it all joy, my bretheren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. (James 1:2-4)
Aren't those great words? More importantly, they are absolutely true. By accepting life's tests and temptations as friends, we become men and women of mature character. There is no shortcut, no such thing as instant endurance. The pain brought on by interruptions and disappointments, by loss and failure, by accidents and disease, is the long and arduous road to maturity. There is no other road.
But where does wisdom come in? It comes through the back door of life when we lean out the window and yell "Help!" That's not my idea. James says so in the next verse:
But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him. (1:5)
As I see it, it is a domino effect. One thing bumps up against another, which, in turn, bumps another, and in the long haul, endurance helps us mature. Periodically, however, we will find ourselves at a loss to know what to do or how to respond. It's then we ask for help, and God delivers more than intelligence and ideas and good old common sense. He dips into His well of wisdom and allows us to drink from His bucket, whose refreshment provides abilities and insights that are of another world. Perhaps it might best be stated as having a small portion of "the mind of Christ."
When we have responded as we should to life's blows, enduring them rather than escaping them, we are given more maturity that stays with us and new measures of wisdom which we are able to draw upon for the balance of our lives.

As a lifelong admirer of President Abraham Lincoln, I have devoured more than a few biographies about him. Among the best was Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns Goodwin, a volume that presents Lincoln's brilliant political act of enlisting into his cabinet some of the men who had run against him. Surrounded by a team that didn't believe in the viability of the Thirteenth Amendment and pressured by men in his own party to compromise with the South to end the war sooner, Lincoln refused to fold. He challenged his peers to rise above their doubts, to act upon their shared goal of ending slavery in America, and to press hard against the opposition. In the end, Lincoln's convictions carried the day. Against all odds, clinging to hope against hope, he led this team of rivals to achieve the defeat of slavery.
Originally, the word referred to a stone used as a mile marker. But it can also refer to a significant point in development—a turning point in life. God showed His interest in milestones when He created ways of measuring time. He gives us all kinds of milestones. For instance, seven days make a week, and 52 weeks make a year. Holidays and seasons come around annually to signal a repeat of something significant. Milestones such as these offer us points in our journey that allow us to measure our development. They provide us opportunities to look back over time and see the memorable ways that God has graciously worked in our lives to impact others.
For the longest time, I didn't understand the new-car industry. I had always thought when a person wanted an automobile, he or she dropped by the local dealership, kicked a few tires, and placed the order with the salesperson. I figured that when headquarters got the specs, they'd scurry around the shop to find the right steering wheel, chrome strips, and navigation system and put it all together. You know, kind of like whipping up a last-minute meal in the kitchen. Simple, right? Wrong.
Virtually every week, I come across people who long for the simple life of yesteryear. But I've learned that one's perspective makes all the difference.
Some look back and remember the best of times—an easier pace, closer ties, cleaner movies, and deeper, more honest relationships. Others remember only the worst of times—inconveniences, prejudices, and inefficiencies. When you stop long enough to think objectively, though, you realize that no time is ideal. The times are what they are, and either we learn to flex and thrive or we become rigid and irrelevant.
You are what you eat! (And we're not talking food.)
When Jesus quoted Deuteronomy 8:3—"People do not live by bread alone; rather, we live by every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD"—He urged us that our spiritual diet is as vital as our physical one. So, how do we eat right—spiritually?

In this unique guide to biblical nutrition, Chuck will:
Finally, you can feed yourself the nourishment your soul needs.

For as far back as I can recall the media has asked commentators and consultants to predict what the New Year will bring for accountants, says Mark Lee.
Naturally the ensuing predictions include well-publicised developments in tax and financial reporting. Typically the predictions also include variations of the same old warnings of other developments that will, so we are told, force accountants to make major changes to the way that they operate.
I don't doubt the sincerity of those who repeat these ideas. Some of their warnings are coming true at last but typically only many years after they were first aired. You could say the predictions were ahead of their time – which some of them were.

Louder Than Words: Take Your Career from Average to Exceptional with the Hidden Power of Nonverbal Intelligenceby Joe Navarro, Toni Sciarra Poynter
View All Available Formats & Editions
Why is it that some people have all the elements of success–education, skills, integrity, motivation–but can't seem to move from effectiveness to/center>
Why is it that some people have all the elements of success–education, skills, integrity, motivation–but can't seem to move from effectiveness to excellence in their careers? Behavior expert Joe Navarro reveals the long-sought answer. Louder Than Words teaches how to master nonverbal intelligence, the ability to interpret and use nonverbal signals–in poker terms, "tells"–in business to assess and influence others.
Drawing on his decades in the behavioral sciences, Navarro shows how to use his simple yet powerful "comfort/discomfort" model to decode what's really being said at meetings, interviews, negotiations, presentations, business meals, and more, including the casual exchanges that often impact decisions and reputations.
Jump-start your career as you discover how to:
- Read body language to understand what clients, coworkers, interviewers, or interviewees are thinking, feeling, or intending, and discern nonverbal cues of concern, disagreement, or doubt–even over the phone
- Master the all-important first impression and use settings, seating, and gestures to inspire and captivate
- Recognize habits that send the wrong message, from nail biting to wearing inappropriate attire–and see what posture, work practices, workspaces, and even electronic habits say about people
- Become culturally aware and gender-sensitive, from best handshake practices to personal space preferences
- Learn what the "comfort dividend" can do for you and your business
- >Explore how the concept of "curbside appeal" applies to you and your business, and can mean the difference between average and exceptional
Use Louder Than Words to close the deal, keep your customers, secure new ones, and lead your company with confidence. For job seekers looking to stand out from the pack, this book is your get-back-to-work bible.

The ultimate walk of life…
The most unfair thing about life is the way you end it. You die.
I actually think that life should be the other way around, something like this…
… To start off with, you die. So that's over and done with.
Then you'll spend a couple of years in an elderly home. Play some Bingo, play some cards. Over the years you'll look better every day, and you'll smell better. You'll see and hear better as time passes and you'll even grow some hair. Hell, even you wife starts looking pretty descent now, which has consequences for your sexual feelings of which you didn't know they existed.
People take good care of you and by the time you turn 65 they'll throw you out because you're too young.
Then your boss will give you a golden watch and you'll start working. Starting gradually with many days off, but over the time you work more with less stress. Your hormones take control over you and your sex drive is turning wild because your wife is starting to look like a goddess.
After you've worked for about 40 years you're still young enough play and fool around, there's no need to think about school yet!
You'll party every weekend, try out some alcohol and drugs, 'cause it's all gonna be over in 25 years anyway.
Spend your summer holidays in the Bahamas, and go skiing in Aspen because you worked for 40 years, had a good job so there's plenty of money.
So now you're off to college, where you'll get acquainted with more alcohol and XTC.
Learn and homework? Hell, you don't need that! You don't need a job anymore anyway…
Then you go to elementary school, you have no responsibilities and you can play all day.
When you become a baby people will constantly hug, feed and kiss you. Finally you crawl into a young woman and float around for nine months. And the best part: you'll end in a giant orgasm…

Parish of Linslade
Coming Soon
Starting Sunday 25th September 4pm: Prof Russell Stannard OBE gives his first of a series of 5 talks on Defending the Faith. Tea and biscuits beforehand in the Hall at 4pm. See Magazine (online copy on Newsletter etc page) for more details.
Saturday 8th October 3pm: Organ recital by Richard Hills. He returns to celebrate the anniversary of the completion of the organ restoration.
Updated: a new Flickr account has been created and pictures of the 2016 Summer Fair uploaded. Go to "Photos" to see them.
St Barnabas in Linslade is an active and friendly Anglican Church with a sizeable congregation covering a broad spectrum from those coming from a non-conformist background to members of our Walsingham Cell.
The main Sunday services are at 8am and 10am. Families are most welcome - at the 10am Eucharist there is a crèche for the youngest children, Sunday School for primary school children and the Barnacles club for older children. On the third Sunday of each month the 10am Eucharist is a less formal All Age Eucharist. Coffee and biscuits are available after the 10am service in the Hall. Please look at the Weekly Newsletter for details of other services.
The clergy team is led by Rev Bernard Minton who is assisted by Rev Wyn Jones and three readers.
The Linslade Community Hall is attached to St Barnabas. We have recently completed extensive renovations and the Hall and meeting rooms are available for hire. Please follow the link on the left for more details on the Hall, how to hire it and lists of the generous grants given to us to undertake the renovations.
Details of the many groups associated with St Barnabas can be found using the link on the left. The Newsletter Etc link contains links to the St Barnabas Weekly Newsletter, monthly magazine, PCC Minutes and the annual APCM report.
St Barnabas recently moved from the Diocese of Oxford to the Diocese of St Albans and became part of the Ouzel Valley Team Ministry in the Dunstable Deanery.
St Barnabas is situated within sight of Leighton Buzzard railway station. The arrival of the railway in the 1838 led to a housing boom around the station. The original 12th century parish church of St Mary's was considered too inconvenient as it is over a mile away in Old Linslade. St Mary's is still used for occasional services and for weddings. The Contact Details page includes maps.

List of living former sovereign monarchs
This is a list of former monarchs of sovereign states who are living to date. While most monarchs retain their position for their lifetime, some choose to abdicate in favour of a younger heir, while other monarchs are deposed when their monarchies are abolished or when another ruler seizes power by force. By international courtesy, these individuals are usually still addressed by their monarchical titles.
Living former monarchs of sovereign states[edit]
Besides these, there are three living former holders of the title Yang di-Pertuan Agong in Malaysia (who are not listed because they remain leaders of one of the nine subnational Malay states), as well as three living former Presidents of France (Valéry Giscard d'Estaing, Jacques Chirac and Nicolas Sarkozy) who served as Co-Princes of Andorra.
Other territorial ex-monarchs[edit]
|Ismail Petra
|Sultan of Kelantan
|11 November 1949
|Kigeli V
|King of Rwanda
|29 June 1936
|Monarchy abolished[2]
|Ghalib II al-Qu'aiti

Queen Elizabeth II[edit]

- Pakistan (1952–1956)
- Ghana (1957–1960)

NFL running back Reggie Bush was considered the next greatest thing to come out of USC in 2006. But since then he hasn't lived up to the hype as being one of the greatest running backs we've ever seen since Barry Sanders and Walter Payton.
Those were the Hall of Fame players that Reggie Bush was compared to coming into the NFL. Now seven seasons later we don't know what's in store for the injured prone Bush.
Reggie Bush did turn his career around when he went down to Miami for the last two seasons. He rushed for 2,072 yards and 12 touchdowns in his two seasons with the Dolphins. Those aren't bad numbers for a player that most thought was washed up.
Still with those kinds of numbers the Miami Dolphins are looking to go with Lamar Miller and Daniel Thomas for the 2013 season. It's just a little disappointing they wouldn't want to retain Bush as he's still only 28 years old and can still be dangerous.
This past year was the only season that Bush played all 16 games without injury. When he first came into the league he was prolific in the back field and can catch the ball. That made him a threat for any team facing the New Orleans Saints. But injuries held back a potential star in the making.
Nobody is feeling sorry for Bush at all. He's made tens of millions playing in the NFL and let's not forget he helped the Saints win their first Super Bowl championship in 2009. That feat for him helped a lot of his problems go away quickly.
I thought that the Miami Dolphins was a good fit for Bush but when you're not winning games and making the playoffs everyone seems to be on the hook; unfortunately it was Reggie Bush. Now let's see which team takes on this veteran back next season.
I would love to see Bush on the New York Giants. Now that would be something to look forward to. I know it isn't Christmas yet but I love to dream big. A two year deal wouldn't hurt.

David West, Lamar Odom among movers
I had one of the great columns of my fantasy career loaded up for the CP3-Lakers-Daryl Morey's Revenge deal. It was incisive, groundbreaking and would have forced you to totally re-evaluate the way you think about Goran Dragic. But instead of that 2,000-word masterpiece, like with everything else NBA-related as of late, we just have to hold our nose and settle for the salisbury steak.
West to the Pacers
Kelvin Kuo/US PresswireFantasy owners were happy to see David West land in a more favorable situation than Boston.
Originally a sidebar to "the deal that wasn't," David West's syndicated version of "The Decision" became the highlight of the weekend. Thankfully for power-forward-needy fantasy owners, West chose the Indiana Pacers over a deal with the Boston Celtics that would have decimated his fantasy value.
I love West on the Pacers. They sport one of the more under-the-radar, undervalued fantasy lineups in the NBA. This is mainly due to three factors: 1. They play in a small market; 2. They lack star power; and 3. They have the sixth-highest pace in the NBA.
Working against them is their muddy backcourt situation. The addition of combo guard George Hill was a nice move but promises to work against Paul George and Brandon Rush (and maybe Darren Collison if he isn't careful).
With the West signing, Indiana's frontcourt is at least now on full lockdown (unless the Pacers nab Andrei Kirilenko). Tyler Hansbrough gets nudged to a bench role (one that he's better suited for anyway) and is firmly off the fantasy radar. Barring a deal for another 2-guard (O.J. Mayo, anybody?), I'm guessing the Pacers should look like this opening night:
PG Darren Collison
SG George Hill/Paul George
SF Danny Granger
PF David West
C Roy Hibbert
West will miss Chris Paul, but he should get plenty of touches as the solid No. 2 option in Indiana's up-tempo offense. The top concern will be West's recently torn ACL, but all reports have him close to 100 percent. And to be honest, stunning athleticism was never one of West's strong suits. But with all of the back-to-backs in everyone's future, I'd stake a very tiny red flag next to his name on your draft spreadsheet.
Because West is so consistent, he's great to own and easy to project; I'd expect 19.0 ppg, 8.0 rpg, gaudy percentages, a steal, a block and no 3s whatsoever. West is a fantastic glue guy for a fantasy squad and looks to be a solid mid-fourth-round selection.
Mavericks trade for Odom, sign Carter
An obviously disconsolate Lamar Odom demanded a trade anywhere. Mitch Kupchak obliged and immediately arranged for what NBA insiders would term as a "have fun trying to resuscitate your reality career in Texas" salary dump.
But why to the rival Dallas Mavericks, trade exception aside? Dwight Howard, I know, I know. Because in real-life basketball terms, Odom is a great fit for the Mavericks. He'll join fellow aging but still-skilled combo forward Shawn Marion to form a nice veteran frontcourt rotation built around Dirk Nowitzki. Both Odom and Marion have long been two of fantasy's most statistically versatile producers.
I don't think the Mavericks are quite done, but this what their rotation is looking like:
PG Jason Kidd
SG Jason Terry/Vince Carter/Rudy Fernandez
SF Shawn Marion/Lamar Odom
PF Dirk Nowitzki/Lamar Odom
C Brendan Haywood
The problem? That Dirk guy's going to get the lion's share of frontcourt minutes. That means both Odom and Marion are both ticketed for only 27-28 minutes per game (MPG), which will dent their fantasy prospects. I was bearish on Odom anyway (see John Hollinger's "Fluke Rule"), but this won't help. I'd downgrade Odom to around 12.5 ppg and 7.5 rpg, meaning he's eighth-round material at a loaded fantasy position.
The Mavericks are looking more and more like a goopy fantasy mess this campaign. Vince Carter might have been big news a couple years ago, but he's more Michael Finley-on-the-Spurs at this point. For a veteran-laden club, they have a heck of a lot of minutes to portion out by Christmas.
Suns waive Carter, re-sign Hill, sign Brown
Unlike the Mavericks, the Phoenix Suns should have a lot more rotational definition headed into the regular season. Grant Hill should start ahead of Josh Childress at small forward, and even if Mickael Pietrus sticks in Phoenix, the Suns are looking like this:
PG Steve Nash
SG Jared Dudley/Shannon Brown
SF Grant Hill/Josh Childress
PF Channing Frye/Hakim Warrick
C Marcin Gortat
Hill will make for a nice bench player in deeper leagues (I'd anticipate a carbon copy of last season's 13.2 ppg), but the big fantasy battle here is at shooting guard. Fantasy owners should hope Jared Dudley and his solid 3-point stroke wins the job, but Phoenix could opt for defense and give the job to Brown. Watch this one closely in camp, because whoever walks out with 30-32 MPG at shooting guard in the Suns' offense will be a deep sleeper in drafts.
Clippers sign Butler, set to match offer on Jordan
Glenn James/NBAE/Getty ImagesThe Clippers hope the signing of Caron Butler isn't their biggest move of this brief preseason.
As an Angelino who gets whiplash from looking at all the Laker flags driving around town, it'd be poetic to see the rising Clippers nab Chris Paul. Until CP3 is dealt, it's probably foolish to project the Clippers' fantasy prospects, but they did make two moves during the weekend that would seem to enhance their chances of getting (and re-signing) Paul.
Yes, Caron Butler got overpaid (3 years, $24 million). The good thing about all that money is that it means he's a sure bet to begin the season firmly entrenched as the Clippers' starting small forward.
Butler was a top fantasy player as recently as 2008, but injuries and age started to nudge his production over a cliff in 2010, even before he got shelved by season-ending knee surgery. With the Clippers, he'll be only the fourth option at best, but I'd look for a slight uptick from his 2010-11 numbers: 15.5 ppg and 5.0 rpg to go with one steal and one 3-pointer.
Re-signing DeAndre Jordan is a must (a league source told ESPN The Magazine's Ric Bucher that the Clippers planned to match the Golden State Warriors' 4-year, $43 million offer). Word is that Paul sees Jordan as the next Tyson Chandler. Jordan has yet to display anything close to Chandler's consistency, but one thing's for sure: If the Clippers do indeed match Jordan's offer sheet, Chris Kaman needs a new place to play ASAP.
The Clippers and Hornets have already submitted a trade to the NBA involving Paul, in which Kaman would head to New Orleans. Kaman is entering a contract year and knows he needs a good season to squeeze in one more big payday. If Kaman is dealt, the Clippers will probably acquire a center to back up Jordan and possibly deal Mo Williams (depending on what they give up for Paul).
No matter what, I'd look for Jordan to post not-quite-Chandler numbers (8.0 ppg, 9.0 rpg, 2.0 bpg). Not bad, but he'll run hot and cold throughout the season.
Celtics re-sign Green
It wasn't so long ago that Jeff Green was one of my favorite sleepers. As a member of the Oklahoma City Thunder, Green seemed to hold some mini-Granger potential, but he never conjured the efficiency to match his upside.
Now, Green is mired in a bench role on a good team, which has been good for his basketball growth but not so good for his fantasy prospects. Barring an injury to Paul Pierce, Green will be an late-round pick at best. Still, he packs enough statistical diversity (averaging nearly one steal, one 3-pointer and half a block per game) to register as a steady bench player in deeper leagues.
Magic re-signs Richardson
Jason Richardson is an example of how negative press perceptions can depress an otherwise productive player's fantasy draft stock. Richardson can't play defense, he's inefficient, he just got (over)paid, he'll suffer if/when Dwight Howard goes and he will go a round or two too late in your draft.
Richardson is losing efficiency, but to be fair, he's more about the volume. He will anchor your team in 3s and boost your steals, while not hurting your percentages (.555 TS% in 2010-11). And he's become more durable with age (he was very brittle in his Warrior days). Richardson's someone you can grab in the seventh round, plug into your lineup and never worry about again.
Kings sign Hayes
Chuck Hayes has long displayed double-double potential (he averaged 11 points and 11 rebounds per 40 minutes in 2010-11) and may get the chance to start in Sacramento, but he'll be in a time-share with J.J. Hickson and Jason Thompson at the 4 (assuming that's where he'll get most of his minutes). As long as he retains his center eligibility, he'll have some value in deep leagues, but only as an late-round pick or free-agent pickup.
Hawks sign McGrady
Ah, if this were 2005, this would have been my lead. McGrady actually had some sneaky-good nights last season when given 30-plus MPG. If he's supposed to be the new Jamal Crawford (the bestower of instant offense), he might get enough touches to be worth a look late. He really did have a nice couple of weeks back in late January/early February. No, really.
Heat signs Battier
A disgustingly astute and savvy signing, Battier will pop up on the fantasy radar a few times this season, especially for teams in head-to-head leagues with a short-term need for 3s and blocks. But he's on the Heat now, so if you value your team's collective karma, save him for the waiver wire.

The Southern Baptist Reformation–A First-Hand Account
The American denominational landscape has experienced significant shifts in recent times, but one major story stands out among them all–the massive redirection of the Southern Baptist Convention. America's largest evangelical denomination, the Southern Baptist Convention was reshaped, reformed, and restructured over the last three decades, and at an incredibly high cost. Was it worth it? That is one of the crucial questions addressed by Paige Patterson in his new essay, Anatomy of a Reformation: The Southern Baptist Convention 1978-2004.
