With free agency to begin March 11, and the draft from May 8-10, one thing NFL teams generally do at this time is marry the two to better assess the best approach to filling potential needs.
For example, if a team knows it's a deep draft for top-quality offensive tackles (2014 is such), it might be less inclined to be as aggressive at that position in free agency. With this in mind, our plan is to look at each position in the coming days through a similar lens.
Next on the list: Wide receiver
Draft: This is a deep class, boosted significantly by the influx of underclassmen. ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr. projects that anywhere from six to nine receivers could be selected in the first round, with teams getting value at the position into the third and fourth round.
Free agency: Similar to the draft, there is no shortage of options for teams looking to upgrade. Denver's Eric Decker is one of the top receivers set to hit the market, although his performance in the Super Bowl might lead some clubs to proceed with caution. Anquan Boldin (49ers), Hakeem Nicks (Giants), Riley Cooper (Eagles) and Jeremy Maclin (Eagles) are other notables who figure to command attention from receiver-needy teams. Patriots receiver Julian Edelman should rate highly for clubs looking for a more shifty type, while Emmanuel Sanders (Steelers), Jerricho Cotchery (Steelers), Golden Tate (Seahawks) and Jacoby Jones (Ravens) are among a group of players who likely will have some value in the marketplace.
Patriots perspective: After drafting two receivers in 2013 (second-rounder Aaron Dobson and fourth-rounder Josh Boyce) and having a third emerge via the undrafted pipeline (Kenbrell Thompkins), the Patriots project to be more inclined to eye experience at receiver. While they could always draft another pass-catcher, the feeling here is that if it happens it would probably be later in the draft. Thus, we'd project free agency as the more likely avenue the team pursues, depending on what happens with Edelman.

This review is from: COUGAR CF-V14HB Vortex Hydro-Dynamic-Bearing (Fluid) 300,000 Hours 14CM Silent Cooling Fan (Black)
Pros: It pushes a nice amount of air and I guess this is where my main con would come from. The accessories included are nice, rubber mounts or screws to choose from.
Cons: This is way too loud for me as a side panel intake fan on my CM 690 II Advanced, slightly better with the fan speed adapter.
Other Thoughts: I would give it 4.5 eggs if possible but I can't. As I said, it pushes a nice amount of air, but I couldn't stand the noise at 1200 RPM; at 700 RPM I could at least rest in my room comfortably. I also find the cable sleeving a bit difficult to clean with a normal, dry cloth but I'm not taking points of for that as it does its job.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: ASUS Maximus V Gene LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
Pros: -Great design, components do seem high quality
-Nice amount of BIOS options
-Sound chip features (Creative EAX, THX TruStudio Pro)
Using this on a new Ivy Bridge build, fantastic board since I only need 1 PCI-E slot.
Cons: -Initial Asmedia USB driver installation issues.
Maybe not an issue to some but the Realtek sound chip, ehh... I'm not really a fan of them, just sounds weird to me compared to the older sound card I had (also from ASUS). No PCI slot prevented me from using the older one.
Other Thoughts: Regarding the Asmedia USB drivers, I had an issue where my mouse would constantly stutter; stopped for a few seconds and then worked again. The Intel USB ports were working fine. Apparently uninstalling them and reinstalling again fixes it but I didn't bother using the ports until I finished updating Windows. They work now but I'm not sure exactly what fixed it.
ASUS Suite II
The software is pretty cool, makes it easier to understand a few of the settings you can tweak (Digi+ Power Control).
--FAN Xpert 2
This one I'm still getting used to; simple way to set your fan speeds depending on the temperature. In advanced mode, there's a menu with the different RPM levels your fan supports and a sensor panel that displays the current info.
Haven't tried VirtuMVP yet as I probably need to switch to the integrated GPU to install it.
This review is from: APEVIA X-TELSTAR-BL Blue/ Black Steel ATX Full Tower Computer CaseNo Power Supply
Pros: I read up on the case prior to purchasing it and knew what I was getting. It's a very nice looking case and the quality is pretty good. Has quite a bit of space and the motherboard tray was very helpful. My first custom PC with this case and I'm loving it so far.
Cons: Biggest issues I have with the case are the non rubber feet and basically no front fan that draws air from the outside (from what I can tell). Can't comment on the temp. gauges as I have no use for them yet.
Other Thoughts: For some reason, I can't get the front audio jacks working so I can't connect my headphones there. :(
The hard drive cages aren't that bad but I can see how they can cause problems. The front cover can also be a problem if you want something in the 5.25" bays.

December 04,2012RUDOLPH, Ohio Volunteers in the northwest Ohio village of Rudolph have come together to save the most famous postmark of all. Thousands of letters flood the village post office every December so they can be stamped with a Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer postmark. But the tradition was in danger of ending when the post office staff was cut down to one and the work became too much to handle. Thats when volunteers in the community decided to take over the job. When word spread, pleadings from local politicians and townsfolk persuaded the U.S. Postal Service to allow volunteers to stamp the special Reindeer Station postmark on the 80,000 letters and cards that come in from across the country. Close to 75 people, including a few retired postal workers, have signed up to work daily shifts.

Welcome to the Muriel Rukeyser Website.
As a "Living Archive," our website is designed to engender lively interdisciplinary conversations about this important twentieth-century poet. We include a rotating number of selected poems by Muriel Rukeyser. Published with permission of Bill Rukeyser, the poet's son, these are meant to provide a representative sample of her voluminous and variegated body of work. The Collected Poems of Muriel Rukeyser, edited by Janet Kaufman and Anne Herzog and available from the University of Pittsburgh Press, remains the most comprehensive collection of Rukeyser's poetry.
Please take a minute to acquaint yourself with the site. Also consider contributing responses–critical, pedagogical, or creative–to the website by contacting us here.
Rukeyser News
Our "Living Rukeyser Archive" is now in its fourth year. Over the past years, our bloggers have included Joe Sacksteder (now a PhD student at the University of Utah), Marian Evans, a writer and cultural activist living and working in New Zealand, Catherine Gander, lecturer in American Literature in the School of English at Queen's University Belfast and author of Muriel Rukeyser and Documentary: the Poetics of Connection, Adam Mitts (now a PhD student at SUNY Buffalo), and poet and independent scholar Laura Passin. We have published critical essays by Dara Barnat, Charlotte Mandel, Chelsea Lonsdale, Alice Thomsen, Laura Passin, Elisabeth Daumer, Kelly Nadler, Kyle Evans, Trevor Snyder, Adam Mitts, and Alicia Ostriker. We' ve been lucky to receive wonderful creative contributions: Stephanie Strickland permitted us to post her poem "Striving All My Life"; Kellie Nadler, Ned Randolph, Victoria Emanuela Pozyczka produced sound remixes of Rukeyser poems. A recent addition is Helen Engelhardt's "Muriel: In Memoriam" and her essay "Muriel's Gift–Rukeyser's Poems on Jewish Themes."
In January, a group of Rukeyser Scholars came together for a panel at the 2016 annual convention of the Modern Language Association: Re/Considering Muriel Rukeyser's The Life of Poetry. The panel, convened by Rowena Kennedy-Epstein and Elisabeth Däumer, included Eric Keenaghan, Stefania Heim, Catherine Gander, Cecily Parks, Hadji Bakara, Rowena Kennedy-Epstein, and Elisabeth Däumer.
Our featured poem this month is her beautiful, and still largely neglected poem "The Outer Banks," which we post here with an essay and photos by Walter Hogan.
Featured Poem
The Outer Banks
Originally published in The Speed of Darkness (1968)
Horizon of islands shifting
Sea-light flame on my voice
burn in me
flows from the water from sands islands of this horizon
The sea comes toward me across the sea. The sand
moves over the sand in waves
between the guardians of this landscape
the great commemorative statue on one hand
—the first flight of man, outside of dream,
seen as stone wing and stainless steel—
and at the other hand
banded black-and-white, climbing
the spiral lighthouse.
Floor over ocean,
avalanche on the flat beach. Pouring.
Indians holding branches up, to
placate the tempest,
the one-legged twisting god that is
a standing wind.
Rays are branching from all things:
great serpent, great plume, constellation:
sands from which colors and light pass,
the lives of plants. Animals. Men.
A man and a woman reach for each other.
You will find the entire poem here.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. - There's something about the Baltimore Ravens that brings out the worst in New England Patriots QB Tom Brady.
Against most teams, he plays like one of the NFL's best. Against the Ravens, he gets outplayed by Joe Flacco.
So what's the problem?
Start with the Ravens' hard-hitting leader, Ray Lewis. Add a talented secondary led by Ed Reed. And throw in a strong defensive line with Haloti Ngata leading the charge.
"They have a lot of playmakers at each level of the defense," Brady said on Wednesday. "It's not like you beat this team 50-0. It's always a tight game. There's tight coverage. There's tight throws, tough reads because schematically they do quite a few things. So it's never easy."

This review is from: GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1070 DirectX 12 GV-N1070G1 GAMING-8GD 8GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 ATX Video Card
Pros: Increased Benchmarking for my computer by factor of 3 from GTX 960. Maybe lower power consumption? Had this for 2 weeks now and no problems at all. (I do use a 34 in. 1080p monitor so the actual difference in games is not so noticeable except for DX12. ) This card is probably overkill for me, given my monitor and games I play, but Rise of Tomb Raider looks good.
Cons: No complaints at all: Since I do use it in a case with mostly solid sides, the LED light effect on card is sort of useless, easy to turn off though.
Other Thoughts: This card is highly rated, works well and is unnecessary for my use, however it is cool having the nearly best card on the market for a while anyway. Cheaper than 1080.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: ASUS MT276HE Black 27" 2ms(GTG) HDMI Widescreen LCD Monitor 400 cd/m2 ASCR 50000:1
Pros: I have owned this for one year and continues to perform flawlessly. Excellent picture, resolution @1920-1080 nearly looks 3D in movies. Speakers better than expected, I actually passed on my JBLs that I had been using for years.
Cons: Bezel is huge and shiny black, collects fingerprints really easy. I guess that is what the remote control is for, I haven't figured out any other use for remote control.
Other Thoughts: This refurb at $249 is $20 cheaper than I paid which only makes the deal better.READ FULL REVIEW

Pros: Arrived quickly, price reasonable, NewEgg super saver, have to wait for $80 in gift cards, but will even out over time. Changed my WEI to 7.3, with my i5 being the lowest. No problem installing Win7 with clean install.
Cons: Does not boot particularly faster then my 7200 rpm HDD, and I am having trouble telling very much difference.
Other Thoughts: I have installed all my current programs and still have 165gb free, so there is plenty of room on this drive. I have had this in for 4 days so far, so not much history behind it. So far....so good.READ FULL REVIEW

Tea party looks to take advantage of moment
By THOMAS BEAUMONT
Associated Press
DES MOINES, Iowa — Is the tea party getting its groove back? Shouts of vindication from around the country suggest the movement's leaders certainly think so.
They say the IRS acknowledgement that it had targeted their groups for extra scrutiny — a claim that tea party activists had made for years — is helping pump new energy into the coalition. And they are trying to use that development, along with the ongoing controversy over the Benghazi, Libya, terrorist attacks and the Justice Department's secret seizure of journalists' phone records, to recruit new activists incensed about government overreach.
"This is the defining moment to say 'I told you so,' " said Katrina Pierson, a Dallas-based tea party leader, who traveled to Washington last week as the three political headaches for President Barack Obama unfolded.
Luke Rogonjich, a tea party leader in Phoenix, called the trio of controversies a powerful confluence that bolsters the GOP's case against big government. "Suddenly, there are a lot of things pressing on the dam," said Rogonjich.
It's unclear whether a movement made up of disparate grassroots groups with no central body can take advantage of the moment and leverage it to grow stronger after a sub-par showing in last fall's election had called into question the movement's lasting impact. Republicans and Democrats alike say the tea party runs the risk of going too far in its criticism, which could once again open the door to Democratic efforts to paint it as an extreme arm of the GOP.
"Never underestimate the tea party's ability to overplay its hand," said Democratic strategist Mo Elleithee. "Just because there is universal agreement that the IRS went too far, that should not be misread as acceptance of the tea party's ideology of anger."
At the very least, furor over the IRS in particular is giving the tea party more visibility than it has had in months, and it's providing a new rallying cry for tea party organizers starting to plot how to influence the 2014 congressional elections.
The tax-agency scandal — it has led to the acting IRS commissioner's ouster, a criminal investigation and Capitol Hill hearings — seems to validate the tea party's long-held belief among supporters that government was trampling on them specifically, a claim dismissed by ousted commissioner Steven T. Miller. He has called the targeting "a mistake and not an act of partisanship."
Nevertheless, Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., elected in 2010 with tea party backing, said the IRS scandal "confirms many of the feelings that led to the tea party movement in the first place."
"What's happened here is a reminder of, this is what happens when you expand government," he said in an interview with The Associated Press. "That and the disaster that is Obamacare is going to be a real catalyst in 2014 and beyond."
Tea party activists hope they also can drive support ahead of the elections by stoking widespread suspicions that the Obama administration and State Department are hiding key details about the September 2012 attack in Benghazi, Libya, that killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans. The seizure of Associated Press phone records also plays into their argument that government is too intrusive.
Tea party activists have tried to take advantage of the issues that have put some of their central tenets — limited government and civil liberties — in the spotlight.
From around the country last week, they headed Washington to hold a news conference on the Capitol steps and meet with members of Congress. Those who stayed home jammed House and Senate phone lines with calls urging congressional action as the IRS saga unfolded. An email from Teaparty.org that was sent to activists proclaimed: "We've worked so hard these past few years and it's paying off! We're witnessing the unraveling of a presidency at an unprecedented rate."
Freedomworks, a national tea party group, spent the week circulating petitions for congressional hearings and encouraging leaders of local groups who believe they have been targeted by the IRS to include their story on a national database to build the case against the agency.
"Perhaps all this attention will break something loose," said Jim Chiodo, an activist from Holland, Mich.
It wasn't long ago that the tea party was the hot new political kid on the block, bursting onto the national scene during the contentious summer debate over health care in 2009. Over the next few years, the loosely affiliated conservatives and civil libertarians would leave their mark on the 2010 elections by helping Republican candidates win Senate races in Florida, Kentucky, Utah and Wisconsin and scores of House races.
Those victories resulted in House and Senate Republican caucuses getting pushed to the right in legislative battles, making life difficult for Obama and his Democrats in an era of divided government.
But the movement's success was muted in 2012 when Republicans nominated the establishment-backed Mitt Romney for president, though he did little to inspire the tea party. He lost, and so did many tea party-backed House and Senate candidates.
Now, tea party activists say they are emboldened and won't be afraid to recruit candidates to run in Republican primaries against incumbents who appear to go easy on the Obama administration, particularly in light of the IRS scandal.
"It's one of those issues we should just raise hell about," said Nashville Tea Party leader Ben Cunningham.
Some say they're now even more suspicious of government than before.
"I personally feel so vindicated," said Mark Falzon, a New Jersey tea party leader. But he added: "What's scaring me now is what's going on below the water line that we're not seeing."
Republicans say that the tea party will have an opportunity come 2014 to make its mark again, particularly with Obama not at the top of the ticket. Also, they say that with Obama's health care law going into effect and with the slew of latest controversies, they now have concrete issues to point to when arguing against government overreach.
"Suddenly, this is a very real demonstration of too much power ceded to government bureaucrats," said Matt Kibbe, president of Freedomworks. "This is no longer theoretical."

Birth certificate snags may hit Dallas ISD and U.S.-born children of undocumented immigrants
With Dallas ISD enrollment set to begin Monday, officials are working around potential snags in the student enrollment process for U.S.-born children with non-citizen parents.
Dallas County stopped issuing birth certificates for U.S.-born children to their non-citizen parents who use foreign identification cards from consulates, citing state law and changes made by the Department of Homeland Security. Dallas ISD asks for birth certificates in the enrollment process.
It isn't yet clear how many might be affected in DISD, which with about 160,000 students is one of the nation's largest districts.
DISD trustee Miguel Solis is worried. Children most likely to be impacted are those under 11 who are enrolling for the first time, Solis said.
"U.S. citizens are being denied access to their rights," Solis said. "There really is no other way to say it… We are obligated to provide an education regardless of the circumstances."
If parents don't have the birth certificates, DISD will give them 30 days to get them and after that will accept alternative documents, DISD spokesman Andre Riley said. Those may include a baptism certificate, a hospital birth record and others, Solis added.
DISD will not prevent a student from enrolling, nor will a student face withdrawal if they don't have a valid birth certificate, Riley said.
For years, matrículas, as the foreign ID is called in Spanish, have been used by Dallas County as acceptable ID for obtaining birth certificates of U.S.-born children. But, for years, at the Texas Department of State Health Services, such matriculas were refused as identification to obtain the same certified birth certificates, Austin-based spokesman Chris Van Deusen said.

The original downtown centre of Calgary was located 10 blocks to the east of The Fairmont Palliser. The completion of the Edwardian commercial-style luxury hotel in 1914 resulted in the downtown core being relocated around The Palliser. These stores and shops were established on what is now historic Stephen Avenue Walk. In keeping with the sandstone construction of The Fairmont Palliser, Stephen Avenue Walk buildings are also made of sandstone. Stephen Avenue Walk is a vibrant centre of downtown life, home to 350 shops and 35 restaurants and pubs. The theatre district anchors the east end of this five-block cobblestone pedestrian walk. There are ten nightclubs within blocks of the hotel, giving guests the choice of dance, rock, country or jazz music. Most nightclubs offer live music on the weekends.
The Fairmont Palliser is also located next to another city landmark; The Calgary Tower—complete with observation lounge and revolving Panorama room restaurant.

Quote, unquote: just-food's week in words
By Hannah Abdulla | 27 January 2014
Last week, the race to buy Australian dairy Warrnambool Cheese and Butter Factory took a decisive turn when Murray Goulburn - and WCB investor - accepted the bid from rival suitor Saputo's takeover bid in what has been an ongoing saga. ConAgra Foods and US retailer Trader Joe's were accused of breaking competition law, while Cargill settled discrimination claims out of court. There were rumours French meats firm Jean Caby was undergoing a restructure and that United Biscuits could either float or be sold. And there were job losses at Kellogg, UK baker Bright Blue and US meat giant Tyson Foods. Here is the week in quotes.
"Consequently, MG was not able to compete realistically on a level playing field with a competing international bidder for WCB," Murray Goulburn criticises the bidding process for Australian dairy Warrnambool Cheese and Butter Factory, which it believes favoured rival suitor Saputo.
"Given that PepsiCo is not interested in pursuing Plan A, we are encouraging them to pursue Plan B" - Nelson Peltz's Trian Fund Management investment vehicle says the activist investor will drop his campaign to push for PepsiCo and Mondelez to merge - but he still wants the cola and crisps giant to split in two.
"While we don't comment on pending litigation, we find this lawsuit to be without merit and intend to vigorously defend this litigation," a spokesperson for ConAgra believes allegations against it breaking competition law by Maxim Marketing Corporation are groundless.
"What is true is that we are planning a re-organisation of Jean Caby's structure with a number of options under consideration. But nothing has been finalised at this stage," Jean Caby's manager Philippe Beuve dismisses claims a buyer has been found for two of the French meat firm's plants in Brittany.
"We believe the agency needs to change the way it applies the law to ensure that OFCCP is not forcing employers to violate - by using quotas - the very laws the agency is supposed to be enforcing," Cargill US lashes out at the Department of Labour after having to payout a $2.2m sum to settle allegations of discrimination against job applicants.
"One of our key objectives is that, for our chosen product sectors, we create industry-leading manufacturing centres of excellence in our most suitable facilities," CEO Andrew Johnson of Bright Blue on the closure of the Manchester factory and the transfer of products to more modern facilities.
"The consultation includes a proposed reduction of approximately 140 roles that the company hopes can be achieved through early retirement and voluntary redundancies," Kellogg's UK announced it is to shed 140 jobs as part of moves to adjust its global production network.
"They also have the opportunity to be recalled for work at Cherokee in the weeks and months ahead if business conditions bring about the need for expanded production or other jobs become open through normal attrition," a spokesperson for Tyson Foods said while the Cherokee plant closure would leave 60 jobless, there was the possibility that some of the staff may be called back.
"The private-equity firms currently have no firm plans to sell or list the business and have not initiated an auction process," a source dismissed claims that United Biscuits is up for grabs.

So let's face it. The world has pretty much gone HD and what segments of television have not gone HD will very soon. iTunes and Netflix and other companies that even distribute video over the Internet are even now streaming HD video. I actually have a Netflix video player that streams HD video. It looks phenomenal. So it's only a matter of time before everything is all HD, all the time.
So I want to just talk a little bit about some of the HD standards. When we're working in Standard Definition Video, it's pretty simple. After a while, they started coming around with wide screen and full screen but the pixel counts were the same. Although nothing has changed with the pixel aspect ratios, but now that HD has entered the mix, there is a whole slew of formats and sizes. Let's talk about those a little bit. Again as a teaching tool, I am going to go and create a brand new sequence, so we can look at these settings here. We know that we have standard DV. These are a Standard SD formats.
One of them that's not listed here is EDTV. We know that we have SDTV, Standard Definition. We have HDTV, High Definition. But there is also EDTV, which is Enhanced Definition TV. Essentially that's the standard NTSC pixel count with a 720x480. But it also has progressive frames and not interlaced frame so it's often seen as 480p. Now one other thing that's good to pay attention to are all these crazy numbers. It's that these are the number of vertical lines and so we have 480 vertical lines and so SD is now referred to as 480i and the "i" refers to interlaced frames, "p" refers to progressive frames. So 480i is SD.
480p is EDTV as mentioned. And I mentioned that because the Nintendo Wii is so popular. And moreover a people are creating games from scratch using Flash. My brother Todd has created Lynda titles on creating Wii games in Flash and creating videos and watching video on the Wii. It's good to know those frames rates. And actually not just the frame rates but the sizes and dimensions and all that kind of stuff. So then we move up to 720p. It's at 720 vertical lines and that resolution is 1280x720, and note that it has a square pixel aspect ratio.
Now while this is considered HD, true HD is actually 1920x1080. Now HDV as you can see here is 1440x1080. That's not what we are looking for and so we need to actually move up to an HD standard here, 1080p for example, and AVCHD is 1920x1080 with square pixel, so this is true HD. It should also be noted that 1080i is also considered HD but for the ultimate, ultimate HD experience, it's really 1080p. That's 1920x1080 pixels with progressive frames.
Because of the increase in quality when using progressive frames, a lot of people feel that 720p is about the same quality as 1080i even though there are fewer pixels. Personally I prefer 720p. It's nice and clean. I love working with progressive frames. The farther away we get from SD, the easier our lives as editors are. The more we can get rid of weird pixel aspect ratios and the more we can get rid of interlaced frames and all that junk, get it out of the way and the new HD progressive format, although it's a little more taxing because there is more pixels.
they take away a lot of those issues that we have to deal with SD. Now it's also point out here, as demonstrated by the AVCHD Presets, that there are different frame rates for HD. HD unlike SD allows 24 frames per second, 30 frames per second and 60 frames per second and for PAL it also allows for 25 frames per second and 50 frames per second. I should also point out that in some technical writings, frame rate is referred to as Hertz.
So as you see something like 720p 60 Hertz, what it's saying is it's 720p video. It's 60 frames per second. Now one final note as we are looking these presets here, I feel I probably should tell you that if we go over to the General tab and you go to the Editing mode, we can see that there are more editing modes here and other presets here that we don't see in the Sequence Preset say, for example RED Cinema here which I don't believe is in the available presets area, no. It's not. So we can have RED Cinema, which is getting wildly popular, and we will see much more of in the future to be sure.
And it also pays to note that because of the RED Camera, which is increasing in popularity, and the RED Camera allows you to go a bigger than HD. It allows film sizes of 2K and 4K which is basically the 2000 pixels and 4000 pixels respectively. And also because RED is introducing the new sensor that they're coming out with that goes up to like 20 something K. So 20 something thousand pixels for their epic cameras, and so that's going to be a big deal. It's no wonder that Adobe has already announced that CS5 will be 64-bit native, so you will have more RAM to be able to process all of these huge frames that are coming out.
But as far as HD video goes, those are the standards. Who knows what the future holds as far as 2K and 4K and whatever else beyond that? But as for right now, those are the standards for HD.

Did Rick Sanchez Edit His Own Wikipedia Entry to Downplay DUI Accident?
Ah, it's been too long since we've had some good ol'-fashioned Rick Sanchez-brand inanity.
On a hunch -- do we know our man or what? -- we checked the revision history of the Wikipedia page for Sanchez, the former WSVN-turned-CNN anchor who is currently unemployed after calling Jon Stewart a "bigot" and implying that Jews control the media.
So this past February 7, a Wikipedia user named Rsanchez1381 changed the description of Sanchez's 1990 DUI accident, in which he struck a pedestrian outside Joe Robbie Stadium. The victim was paralyzed and died five years later. Sanchez's BAC was .15, above the legal limit.
Rsanchez1381 changed that Sanchez "struck Jeffrey Smuzinick, a pedestrian, who had just darted out of a van" to the account that Sanchez "struck Jeffrey Smuzinick, a pedestrian, who darted out in front of Sanchez's car," tacitly blaming Smuznick for the accident.

TicketsSun., Oct. 16, 1:00pm
Rsanchez1381 also added that Sanchez was charged only with a "misdemeanor."
He moved the "Drunk Driving Incident" section lower in the entry. Still unsatisfied, Rsanchez1381 amplified Sanchez's historical importance a bit by changing the following passage:
His use of social networking tools to create a citizen-driven news program was recognized by the Newseum in Washington, D.C., and has generated mostly positive feedback.
To this:
Sanchez was recognized as a pioneer in the marriage of social networking and mainstream media by creating a citizen-driven news program and was recognized by the Newseum in Washington, D.C., and by the New York Times.
The edits were quickly erased by other users for having a "conflict of interest" and being overtly from a "point of view."
So why -- beside the obvious -- do we think Rsanchez1381 is actually Rick Sanchez himself? Well, Sanchez's personal email address is Rsanchez1381@[domain].com.
We know that because we were in frequent contact with Sanchez to write a profile about his comeback. He gave us amazing Rick-isms like this one (concerning his comments about Stewart): "Some days I wake up and I just want to find the highest mountain and scream: 'That's not me!'"
But the whole thing fell apart when his "people" -- Sanchez is now represented by Ronn Torrossian, frequent agitator for Israeli causes, which isn't heavy-handed at all -- took umbrage at our implication that Rick Sanchez himself might be the writer behind pro-comeback page Friends of Rick Sanchez.
We emailed Sanchez for a comment but have yet to hear back.

Reviews for Ligonier Ministries, Inc.
We have been blessed by Ligonier Ministries, Inc. for nearly twenty five years. We were drawn to the ministry when we read their charge: "teaching Christians why the believe what they believe."
It was from this beginning that we were drawn to Dr. R.C. Sproul's book The Holiness of God and then numerous other books written by Dr. Sproul covering Scripture that drew us closer to our Lord.
Over the years we have had the privilege of attending Conferences, which are a blessing in themselves, having the opportunity to hear and meet other great Reformed Theology ministers/educator/teachers.
The ministry's monthly publication, Tabletalk, is the most Bible
based devotional (and more!) we have ever encountered.

do absolutely NOTHING. Ligonier's determined goal of providing Biblical truths in an easy to understand, loving manner is beyond correction.
I tried to write an accurate portrayal of this ministry, each time I was kicked out before finishing. Check our who their top employees are (nepotism) with very high salaries, the lawsuit they filed in the past and their financial situation as submitted by www.minisrywatch.com.
I find R. C. Sproul Sr. teachings very biblically related, his messages are enlightening and I have listened to him for some years. However, I have to question the above. Do the research for yourself, should any ministry file a lawsuit against a blogger, hire basically his son-in-law to run the ministry without the proper experience?
I have been receiving "Tabletalk" and Dr. Sproul's cd's for several years now. I have an extensive collection of his teaching materials which has been extremely helpful in my roles as a bible study leader and Sunday School teacher. In the current atmosphere of "whatever works" evangelicalism, Ligonier has been my go-to ministry for sound, responsible theology and doctrine.

I first heard a broadcast of Renewing Your Mind with Dr. sproul on the radio about ten years ago and I can still remember how the words were like a tuning fork to my ear. Since then I have listened to and read countless messages from Dr. Sproul and his associates utilizing the vast array of resources: books, tapes, DVDs, Tabletalk magazine, online materials, and conferences, all of which has served to tremendously increase my understanding of scripture, theology, and Christian living. I highly recommend Ligonier Ministries' extensive resources to anyone who desires to follow the apostle Paul's exhortation to renew your mind!

My wife & I first experienced Ligonier Ministries by serving as volunteer workers at the 2000 National Conference. We have been blessed, since that initial conference with volunteer duties ranging from stuffing envelopes to coordinating volunteers for the past 10+ years for the ministry. We have thoroughly enjoyed staff interactions through the years, which includes major conferences 3 and 4 times per year utilizing 50 to 150 volunteer workers per each 3 day event. It is a delight to work with an organization that prays for our Lord to guide the ministry and provides biblical devotions each Friday for personnel who love the Lord. We pray God will continue to bless this ministry until He comes again.
