"Easy to find"
The hotel couldn't be easier to find & the young man at the front desk was especially friendly & helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommend this hotel.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"OK for one night"
The hotel staff was friendly and helpful and the breakfast was good. The rooms were large and nicely furnished however the walls were not the least bit sound proof. We could hear the entire conversations in the next room and the TV. In the halls you could hear all the way to the elevator everything said in each room. Luckily by the time we returned […] to the hotel after dinner the next door room had gone out so we didn't hear them again until morning. It is a nice place- too bad they cannot do something about the room noise factor. 詳情Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

"Excellent value for the price"
I spend roughly half the year in hotels for work, mostly Hilton chain stuff (Hampton Inns,etc.) I assumed this would be of similar quality to a Super 8 I had recently stayed in at a similar price. Dead wrong. Rooms very clean, bedding modern and comfortable, bathroom clean. TV's are older, but work just fine. Hallways are dimly lit and showing signs […] of wear, but clean. Front desk staff helpful and friendly. Free breakfast is nothing to be excited about, but is better than nothing. Excellent value for the price, as they obviously take pride in their work and their facility here. Will definetely stay here again. 詳情Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"good for a tight budget"
Hotel was in good condition, staff was friendly. Room was typical. Bed was fairly comfortable. It was fine for a business trip but would look elsewhere if I wanted a weekend getaway. Good room for the money though. Close to downtown portsmouth where all the food is.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

I paid $70 bucks total for a king bed at this hotel...you get what you pay for. It was just a pit stop on our trip but I wouldn't use this place for any more than that! Coffee sucked!!!Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
Good value for money-rooms were clean but doors and hallways are starting to show signs of wear.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"Far exceeded expectations"
Paid $69 w/ tax through hotels.com. I wasn't expecting much for the price, but was pleasantly surprised. I have no complaints especially for the price. People I was traveling with paid $180 for downtown Portsmouth plus parking fees. Would definitely stay there again.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

We were very happy and comfortable. Got an extra blanket right away and the room and bathroom were very spacious. Just as nice as any other hotel that we have paid double for. Will definitely stay again.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價
"very disappointed"
I was very disappointed in my stay. The toilet clogged and the man at the front desk handed me a plunger!! There were no toiletries in the room (soap but no shampoo). The beds were billed as being extremely comfortable and they were the worst I have slept on in a hotel in a VERY long time. I only needed to be there one night so wasn't worth scoping […] out someplace else to stay but would not book at another one. 詳情Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

"Basic, clean, inexpensive stay"
The hotel is clean, the staff were very nice and it is right off the highway. The rooms are basic, but had a roomy,bright bathroom; an iron and board, and a small refrigerator and microwave. The beds were comfortable and clean. You can even use the pool and get a discount on food at the nearby Holiday Inn (same owners). There is a small gym and laundry […] available at the hotel, also. I stayed for 3 nights and am staying for 5 more this next week. You really can't beat the price. It is where I'll stay when I'm in this area again. 詳情Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

"Perfect for my needs!"
The only thing that was not quite perfect about the hotel room was that multiple portions of the wallpaper were peeling and the lighting was a little bit dim. Considering this was only $15 more expensive than a Motel 6, I wasn't expecting much-- but I got free wifi, continental breakfast, as well as a mini-fridge and microwave. The bed was even comfy!

Other than the obvious hooker letting her client in a side door, our stay was as expected. The beds were a bit small. I'm 5'8 and slept diagnol so my feet didn't hang over the edge. In all the place was clean and the front desk staff was really nice to my daughter.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

Lobby and halls were run down, but the room was clean and comfortable. When I walked into the lobby, it smelled so strongly of cigarette smoke that I asked if the rooms were smoky at all but they were fine.Hotels.com 旅客真實的評價

"It was exactly what we needed."
Me and my girlfriend just needed an inexpensive place to stay for a night here in Portsmouth, and this place had exactly what we needed.

With such a wide range of DAISY players available it can be difficult to work out which one is best for you. Starting with the simplest and easiest to use DAISY players, this guide moves on to more advanced players with additional features which will be explained along the way.
We will also highlight some of the companies and organisations who provide books, magazines and other reading material that you can read using your DAISY player. Towards the end of this guide you will find a section explaining some of the terminology used.
If after reading this guide, you need more information, latest prices or further advice visit our Online Shop or call us on 0303 123 9999.
You could also visit one of our centres located throughout the UK, or your local society for blind and partially sighted people, many of whom also stock products in their shops. To find your nearest centre contact us on 0303 123 9999.
All the desktop players have built-in rechargeable batteries and mains power cables. All the Victor Reader Stratus players also have a sturdy built-in handle.
If you are looking for the most simple and easiest to use desktop player to read DAISY audio books, play music and MP3 CDs, then the Victor Reader Stratus 4 is for you. With large, well spaced buttons and simple operation, you'll be relaxing into your next DAISY audio book in no time.
The Plextalk PTX1 is simple and well designed and can play a wide range of content from CDs, SD cards and USB memory sticks. It is widely used by the RNIB Talking Book Service due to its clear button layout and different shaped buttons which help their identification.
The Stratus12 adds a number key pad to help you navigate through more complex books. It makes it easier to add and skip to bookmarks so it's great for education, particularly revision. It also has a highlight bookmark feature to mark a section of text so you can easily return to important information.
The "M" versions of the Stratus players adds a USB and SD card slot so you have a wider choice of content to listen to. As with the basic versions you can listen to DAISY books, music CDs and MP3 CDs. The additional slots on the "M" versions allow you to listen to content direct from organisations such as Calibre and Talking Newspapers. Their built-in text-to-speech (TTS) program further increases the choice of content from websites such as Project Gutenberg and Librivox.
The Plextalk PTR2 is a far more advanced model for making structured DAISY audio recordings rather than simply listening to them.
If you want to fit a large amount of audio content in your pocket the these small, lightweight players can be easily carried with you wherever you go. They all use SD cards for storage and you will generally need to use a computer in order to copy your content to the card. All portable DAISY players have these common features:
The Milestone is the smallest and lightest DAISY player on the market. There are three different models but all feature the same simple layout with five buttons arranged in a cross with a button in the centre and a mode button on the top edge. These tactile keys and simple layout help ensure you hit the right button every time.
The Milestone 212 is primarily a book and music player and is one of the easiest to use portable players.
The Milestone 312 adds an FM radio, one gigabyte of internal memory, a clock, timer and alarm. You can also manage appointments and set reminders by adding Milestone Agenda software.
The Milestone 312 Pro adds Speakout which enables you to record voice labels for items around your home and office.
You can also use the Milestone to work out what colour something is with the optional Milestone Fame colour detector.
Listen to web-based radio stations by using the built-in Wifi to connect to the internet. The Plextalk Pocket has a number key pad providing shortcuts to menu functions, bookmarks as well as arrow keys for navigation. The ability to record in DAISY format makes it perfect for education and work. You can add headings during a lecture so you can quickly and easily navigate the audio when revising. Available in two colours; black with white buttons and white with black buttons.
The BookSense is compatible with the widest range of formats enabling you to listen to content from the widest selection of providers. The BookSense range all have FM radio and a dedicated time button. There are three models available - BookSense T50, BookSense T50XT and the BookSense DS.
The red BookSense T50 has a number key pad and arrow keys for navigation.
The white BookSense T50XT has the same key layout as the T50 but also has four gigabytes of internal memory and Bluetooth so you can listen to your music and books using wireless headphones.
The BookSense DS also has Bluetooth and four gigabytes of internal memory but also has a high quality OLED screen. Its number key pad has well defined, tactile buttons.
The Victor Reader Stream is roughly the size of a pack of playing cards and is the largest of the portable players. Its number key pad has well defined and raised tactile buttons.
If you are a computer user then EasyReader DAISY software provides a low cost method of reading DAISY books. For certain books it will also highlight the current sentence whilst reading. Choose from a range of fonts, font sizes and colours to suit your needs.
If you work in education or would like to create your own DAISY books then EasyProducer DAISY software provides a simple and easy way to convert your Microsoft Word documents into DAISY audio books. Once installed, a toolbar provides one touch conversion to DAISY using synthetic speech. Simply style the document with headings and these will be converted to headings within the audio book. The files can then be copied to an SD card, USB stick or burnt on to a CD.

So after reading many posts about engines, I've come across "re-loadable" ones. As a newbie to rocketry, I'm confused about them. So, what exactly is a re-loadable engine, is it like reloading ammunition like some shooters and outdoors people do, or is it something completely different?
Thanks for the info

Q4 Semi Sales Up 3.8% YoY |
Written by Mike Buetow | |||
Tuesday, 05 February 2013 09:57 | |||
WASHINGTON, DC — Worldwide semiconductor sales in 2012 reached $291.6 billion, down 2.7% year-over-year but still good for the industry's third-highest yearly total, the Semiconductor Industry Association announced. Total sales for the year narrowly topped expectations from the World Semiconductor Trade Statistics organization's forecast. Global sales in December 2012 slipped 3% sequentially to $24.7 billion. Fourth-quarter sales rose 3.8% from last year to $74.2 billion. All monthly sales numbers represent a three-month moving average. "Despite substantial macroeconomic challenges, the global semiconductor industry outperformed forecasts and posted one of its highest yearly sales totals in 2012," said Brian Toohey, president and CEO, SIA. "Recent momentum, led by strength in the Americas, has the industry well-positioned for a successful 2013." The industry saw strong demand in several market segments during 2012. Logic was the largest semiconductor category, reaching $81.7 billion in 2012, a 3.7% increase over 2011. MOS microprocessors ($60.2 billion) and memory ($57 billion) rounded out the top three segments, but both lagged behind 2011 sales totals. Optoelectronics was the fastest growing market on a yearly basis, increasing 13.4% in 2012 to reach $26.2 billion for the year. Optoelectronic applications offer energy efficiency and low cost in a wide range of products including mobile devices and cameras. NAND flash – used in a host of mobile devices, USB flash drives, memory cards and related products for the storage and transfer of data – grew at the second-fastest rate of 4.1% to reach $25.4 billion in 2012. Regionally, the Americas continued to show signs of strength, increasing sales by 13.4% in December compared to December 2011 and by 12% in the fourth quarter compared to the third quarter, but ongoing economic and policy uncertainty continues to pose risks to the near-term market outlook. Sales in Asia Pacific during December also increased compared to the same month in 2011 (6.7%), while sales in Europe (-5.5%) and Japan (-11.2% decreased over the same period. Total yearly sales in all four regions were lower in 2012 than 2011, with Asia Pacific (-0.6%) and the Americas (-1.5%) seeing the smallest declines. "Despite lingering economic and policy uncertainty, the U.S. semiconductor market continues to show signs of strength, posting impressive growth in December," continued Toohey. "As the foundation of all modern electronics, semiconductors are critical to America's economic strength, national security and global competitiveness. By enacting measures that foster growth and remove uncertainty, policymakers can further strengthen the industry and help unlock its full potential in 2013 and beyond."

Start: Saturday, July 6, 2013
17701 Old YMCA Road Winter Garden, Florida
Sunday, June 30, 2013 @ 11:59 PM US/Eastern
Rock On Adventures presents the Highlander "Intimidator" Edition. We will offer 8+ miles of running through woods, water and pastures while navigating obstacles made out of wood, plastic, ropes, swings, telephone poles..... and so much more! You will encounter many obstacles you have not seen before. Obstacles that may include barbed wire in a different way than you are used to, swimming, ropes, trees. No bicycles, no kayaks, but there will be water! The Intimidator is not like a typical Highlander Classic event, as it is made tougher, longer and more grueling. You will be very happy to make it all the way through this race without asking officials to give you a ride back to the start... but you will want to very much! This race is for pushing yourself to the limit without running at night. It will offer a lot of challenges to test your mettle. This race is not for you if you do not train! There is no Kid's race at this event. This race weather will be hot! I advise only those that are in good shape and enjoy learning the breaking point of their mental and physical well being, to enter this event. If you can't run 10 miles, swim a 1/2 mile, pull yourself up by your arms, solve problems while you are exhausted... then please sign up for one of our other events. Event location is the Roper Ranch located at 17701 Old YMCA Road, Winter Garden Florida 34787
July 6th, 2013. First wave leaves at 8:00 AM and a new waves leaves every 20 minutes.
Click here to view the event organizer's website
Have you raced through fire, crawled under barbed wire, and sloshed through mud pits with your friends? What are you waiting for? It's probably the most fun you'll ever have at a race. Throw on a costume, grab a beer, and get downright dirty when you join the Mob.
Sorry, we could not map this event.

Hurry for the Zombie Crawl! What an excellent event for an excellent cause. It was a beautiful day and I had so much fun watching all the families and people running around downtown on the scavenger hunt.
Rep. Joe Radinovich, DFL-Crosby came out in favor of legislation that would support gay marriage, an issue that is being bandied about in St. Paul.
The following is a letter sent to Cathy VanRisseghem, Mayor of Little Falls on April 26, 2013.
"I can make a firm pledge. Under my plan no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase.
You asked "What difference does it make?" Well maybe nothing to you, being you are so concerned with ducking any responsibility for the death of these four Americans. It happened under your watch and management.
For over 100 years, my family has owned and operated Ruttger's Bay Lake Lodge and have prided ourselves at creating a fantastic get-a-way for Minnesotans and others from across the country.
I pray every day that the Freedom to Marry bill at our state capitol will pass. It's due to my strong religious faith that I believe we should celebrate the love of our fellow brothers and sisters.
Lymes disease An interesting time for those who take time to listen or watch the news. The war hawks are trying to get use involved in another war in the Middle East even before we are out of the ones we have been in for the last decade.
We uncorked our finest late-winter whines ("when will it end?", "I can't take anymore!"). But, the tax man cameth and wenteth and Old Man Winter overstayed his welcome. First, we tried polite indulgence.

Tulsa Toddler Found Locked in Dog's Cage. Tulsa Police Discuss the Case
By John Durkee
A Tulsa man is in jail after police find an 18-month old toddler locked in a dog's cage inside his house. Another child was found playing naked in the back yard. That child was four-years old. A third child was asleep in the house.
Officers arrested 47-year-old William Lewallen at his home near 49th Street North and Frankfort. Lewallen is believed to be the children's father. Police say Lewallen was passed out on the bed from mixing prescription medication with beer.
Police were alerted to the situation by a neighbor who heard the toddler crying. Bond for Lewallen is set at $50,000 according to booking documents. The children are now in state custody.

In Uganda, the NIMD programme focusses on supporting the recently-established Inter-Party Organisation for Dialogue (IPOD).
Contact person for this programme is: Karijn de Jong. For more information on the political context and history of Uganda, see the Uganda Factsheet.
Uganda has just emerged from the election post-mortem stage and is now entering the reform window of the electoral cycle. The NIMD programme thus focuses strongly on the inclusive dialogue platform, IPOD, in order to further strengthen interparty dialogue and start crafting a jointly-owned reform agenda. However, given the political tensions caused by the opposition's protest campaigns and the government's reaction, the appetite for political dialogue may be diminished in the first half of 2012. IPOD will, therefore, concentrate first on softer issues of common concern in order to keep the dialogue alive. It will then move on to more difficult issues such as presidential term limits and other constitutional matters.
To broaden the support for interparty dialogue and a culture of political tolerance, the programme will continue to push for a Summit of IPOD party presidents but will also seek the setting up of a more inclusive national dialogue with civil society and faith based organisations. Furthermore, the dialogue platform will be piloted at the district level and will include political parties, civil society organisations and other local stakeholders in a dialogue aimed at ensuring local dialogue accountability and service delivery.
NIMD will continue to build on its efforts to strengthen the policy-seeking capacity of the political parties. Under the bilateral programme for capacity strengthening of individual parties, NIMD will continue to strengthen the party secretariats in the areas of policymaking and communication. Finally in 2012 the platform will seek the opportunity to engage with civil society stakeholders on a more regular basis as both a resource and a partner in the dialogue process at the district level.
• National Resistance Movement (NRM)
• Forum for Democratic Change (FDC)
• Uganda People's Congress (UPC)
• Democratic Party (DP)
• Conservative Party (CP)
• Justice Forum (JEEMA)
• In Uganda NIMD has helped political parties set up an inter-party dialogue platform that aims to contribute to free and fair elections and long-term democratic reforms. The platform, which is known as the Inter-Party Organisation for Dialogue (IPOD), was launched on 5 February 2010 at a signing ceremony in the Ugandan capital Kampala.
• Electoral Commission (EC)
•African Peer Review Mechanism Governing Council of Uganda
•Royal Netherlands Embassy (RNE)
•Deepening Democracy Programme (DDP) and its contributing partners (UK, Norway, Ireland, Sweden, Netherlands)
•National Democratic Institute (NDI)
•International Republican Institute (IRI)
•Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES)

Oct 28, 201185It's seriously one of the best adventure games I've played in years that has words in it (I'm looking at you, Machinarium). It doesn't just tell a good story, it's tightly plotted too.
Nov 2, 201182With its great characters, solid plot, well written dialogues and interesting puzzles, Deception is probably one of the best point and click adventures of the year. Maybe the only real complaint is the lack of graphics coherence.

Beef is raised in many of the most sensitive environmental areas around the world. Most of the world's beef is produced in Australia, Brazil, Southern Africa and the United States. Unlike many other agricultural commodities, cattle have significant impacts on a wide range of ecosystems.
With the United Nations forecasting that global population will exceed 10 billion by the end of the century and income levels rising, demand for beef is increasing and only expected to get higher. It is thus essential to improve the sustainability of beef production globally.
There are many ways beef production—when sustainably managed—can benefit our environment. Grazing maintains the health of grasslands, improves soil quality with manure, and preserves open space and wildlife habitat. Additionally, carbon is sequestered in the grasses and soils of grazing lands. Beef is also important for health and economic development. As a nutrient-rich protein source, beef increases food security and nutrition, especially in developing countries. Beef production also provides social benefits, such as poverty alleviation and the promotion of community vibrancy.
WWF envisions a global marketplace in which all beef is sustainable. By working with producers as well as companies and their supply chains to improve the sustainability of beef production, WWF is helping ensure that consumers have choices for a safe, affordable and sustainable diet.
Beef production has several distinct and significant impacts on the environment. More pasture is used for cattle than all other domesticated animals and crops combined. In addition, cattle eat an increasing proportion of grain produced from agriculture, are one of the most significant contributors to water pollution and soil degradation, and are a major source of greenhouse gas emissions. Finally, processing cattle into meat, meat by-products and leather is a major source of pollution in many countries.
Habitat conversion
Researchers estimate that each year an area of rainforest larger than New York state is destroyed to create grazing land. Currently over two-thirds of the world's agricultural land is used for maintaining livestock. One-third of the world's land is suffering desertification due in large part to deforestation, overgrazing, and poor agricultural practices. Up to 20% of the earth's grasslands are suffering from some degree of degradation.
Water pollution and usage
Disposal of organic cattle production waste without proper treatment leads to the pollution of water resources. Sediment resulting from poor grazing management contaminates surface water and groundwater. Heavy water use by the beef industry is also a major concern.
Industrial pollution
As the global cattle industry has expanded, the beef slaughter and leather industries have grown vigorously. The waste from both slaughterhouses and tanneries—rich in organic matter, heavy metals and caustic solutions—is highly polluting without appropriate treatment.
Soil degradation
Livestock farming is one of the main contributors to soil erosion around the world. Turning forests into pasture, overgrazing, and soil impaction from cattle's hooves can lead to extreme loss of topsoil and organic matter that may take decades or centuries to replace.
Climate change
Beef production has a considerable effect on climate change due to emissions of greenhouse gases such as methane, nitrous oxide and carbon dioxide. Research shows that methane produced by ruminant livestock accounts for between 7% and 18% of global methane emissions from human-related activities.
Impacted Species & Places
What WWF Is Doing
WWF is committed to working with the global beef industry to address production issues in ways that are socially responsible, environmentally sustainable, and economically viable.
Improving Management Practices
Initial research shows that there are a number of improved management practices that can measurably reduce environmental impacts. These include:
- Maintaining vegetative cover
- Avoiding overgrazing
- Protecting riparian areas
- Selecting for cattle that are more efficient
- Reducing waste and disposing of waste in the least harmful ways
- Using chemicals and antibiotics judiciously
- Reducing wastewater
- Improving water effluent quality
- Reducing soil compaction
Catalyzing Global Action on Beef
WWF's first major initiative related to this work was helping to convene the Global Conference on Sustainable Beef, held in November 2010. Approximately 300 stakeholders from across the beef system met to address the environmental, economic and social impacts of beef production and determine if there was consensus for forming a coalition to improve the sustainability of the global beef system.
The message was loud and clear: a multi-stakeholder initiative was needed and with that, a foundation for the Global Roundtable for Sustainable Beef (GRSB) was laid. Formally launched in February 2012, the GRSB works to engage local efforts to improve the sustainability of the beef industry in North America, Brazil, Argentina, Australia, and Southern Africa.
Promoting Sustainable Ranching
Through the Sustainable Livestock Initiative, WWF collaborates with farmers and ranchers around the world to identify and accelerate the use of more ecologically and economically sustainable management practices. The Initiative is working in key beef production areas such as the Northern Great Plains, the Chihuahua Desert, Australia, Argentina, and southern Africa to increase the uptake of best practices.
Florida Ranchlands Environmental Services Project (FRESP)
In the Northern Everglades region of Florida, WWF worked with ranchers to establish the Florida Ranchlands Environmental Services Project (FRESP) in 2005. This collaborative, entrepreneurial endeavor designed a "payment for environmental services" (PES) approach to improving water retention and reducing nutrient loads on ranchlands. FRESP is now coming to a close after successfully informing the launch of the Northern Everglades-Payment for Environmental Services (NE-PES) project of the South Florida Water Management District.

A great way to spend some quality time with the kids is by enjoying the great outdoors together. Introducing the little ones to the wonders of Mother Nature can be a fun and memorable time for the whole family if you take the time to prepare.
First and foremost, make sure you gear up the kids with the right clothing and shoes. Luckily, most outdoor brands now create outdoor gear for kids. When treading more watery terrain along creeks and rivers, make sure they have water-friendly sandals like the Teva Psyclone for boys, or Teva Kids Toachi for girls. They're designed for both wet and dry conditions, and are perfect for summer hikes.
Here are a couple more tips for enjoying the great outdoors with your little ones:
1. Take it slow: The first time out, stick to somewhere closer to home. Ease your kids into hiking by taking short hikes on the weekends. Make sure to remember that you have to slow down to their pace.
2. Remember snack time: Bring plenty of snacks and drinks! Stop often to nibble on snacks and take in the scenery. This is a great time to take pictures as well.
3. Fun and Games: Keep things light and fun by playing games or singing your kids' favorite songs along the way.
4. Sun safety: Don't forget the sunscreen! Apply it all over, and make sure to reapply throughout the day. A hike with no sunburns is much more enjoyable for everyone.
Take time to let your kids enjoy and appreciate the great outdoors this summer by going on fun family hikes. Who knows, they just might end up sharing the same love for the outdoors as mom and dad!

The Colts weren't hot stuff when Peyton knew he was going there but he embraced the challenge. Why didn't Archie do this with Peyton? Kinda makes me think that Eli is Daddy's favorite while Peyton has struggled to differentiate himself from Archie.

This has to be the only logical explanation. I hope for their sake they already have a trade agreement. They almost have to make it look like there is no way Eli would play for them so the fans don't boycott when he's not drafted. I almost feel sorry for the Charger fans....almost..

I thought Eli was a good prospect up until these recent incidents but as of right now he sounds like a spoiled little brat.
I agree with Scheriff's (sp) point of view on espn...the NFL swings the hammer all the time...why? because they can. It's not often that a player has leverage, and if Eli thinks he has the hammer right now, he might as well swing it because he may never have it again in his career.

I just saw that too, and altho I seldom agree with Sclereth, I do on this one.
SD ownership/FO let the news out that Manning was resistant to going there, not Manning, who was blindsided by the news leaking out. Why SD chose this tactic, I don't quite fathom.
But it doesn't smell right.

They did, and they've been releasing info all offseason. Question is:why?
AJ Smith outed both Giants and the Skins re their offers to trade up in the past few weeks. Both teams issued denials, and both must have been steaming. Everyone plays it silent or blows smoke at draft time, and this creep has been spilling the beans like a love sick teenager. There probably isn't anyone left to trade down with now, after Smith went on record saying he'd never trade down to the hated Raiders.
I think Michael Wilbon is spot on on SD. SD always wanted Rivers. (see bolded section)
Passing On San Diego
By Michael Wilbon
Friday, April 23, 2004; Page D01
The family that breeds NFL quarterbacks has told the San Diego Chargers, "No way." The Mannings told the sorry, no-account Chargers that Eli, the brother of Peyton and the son of Archie, does not want to play for them. It's not about any great desire to play in New York, specifically, though that would be just fine in the scheme of things. But really, it's just that they think Eli would be better off just about anywhere else.
And I don't blame Archie Manning a bit. He played 13 seasons in the NFL, almost all of them with the New Orleans Saints, who were pathetic. And you can bet he hasn't forgotten what it was like to spend a career in competitive purgatory, with rarely a chance to come close to winning.
Yes, the NFL is different now because teams go from bottom to top all the time; the rules facilitate the worst teams becoming better immediately. And Archie's sons have the benefit of something he never had: free agency. Even so, when you know the game, the industry and the personal trials and tribulations as well as Archie and you can do something to influence things in your son's favor, you do it. From the day Eli signs a contract until he leaves pro football, the NFL will have all the leverage. Heck, the contract Eli signs won't even be guaranteed. Whatever team he joins will undoubtedly come knocking one day, asking him to renegotiate his contract so the team can sign a young stud, or have more salary cap flexibility.
Archie Manning knows how this works. And any father worth the title should be commended for doing whatever he can to keep his kid away from the likes of the football Cardinals, the NBA Clippers and Wizards and baseball's Expos. And yes, the Chargers are in that group. Since Bobby Ross led them to the Super Bowl after the 1994 season, the Chargers have gone -- get this -- 9-7, 8-8, 4-12, 5-11, 8-8, 1-15, 5-11, 8-8, 4-12. That's eight straight non-winning seasons, surpassed only by the Bengals' 13 straight non-winning seasons. But at least Cincinnati's on the upswing.
It's perfectly legit to wonder about the Chargers' competence, especially when it comes to picking quarterbacks. After missing out on Peyton Manning, the Chargers took Ryan Leaf with the second pick of the draft in '98. Owning the top pick in the 2001 draft, they traded the chance to pick Michael Vick and settled for Drew Brees (and LaDainian Tomlinson).
Can you imagine how bad a team has to be for a kid to not want to throw the ball in Southern California? The Chargers must really stink if Eli, a Mississippi kid, would rather sling it through the swirling winds of Giants Stadium than the gentle breezes by the Pacific.
"About the last three weeks of the season, San Diego is looking pretty good to me," Redskins Coach Joe Gibbs cracked yesterday.
Goodness mercy, how could the NFL draft have any more drama?
We've got one of football's royal families, a polite, even-tempered bunch of folk, embroiled in a messy controversy. We've got two Supreme Court justices ruling on draft eligibility 36 hours before the first pick. And this is in addition to all the stupid mock drafts. ESPN's Mel Kiper, just so you know, has now projected pick for pick into the sixth round. Some clown from the Sporting News is on his XIIIth mock draft -- that's 13th for those of you who are Roman numeral challenged.
At least we won't have to wait long for the good stuff. The Chargers, as Coach Marty Schottenheimer told The Post's Mark Maske and Leonard Shapiro yesterday, likely will still take Manning with the first pick. My question is, why? Manning isn't John Elway, whom Baltimore selected first and had to trade him when Elway (with an assist from his dad, Jack) refused to play for the Colts in 1983. Is Manning really that much better at this point than Miami (Ohio's) Ben Roethlisberger? Is Manning really that much better than North Carolina State's Philip Rivers?
Okay, you want a real cynic's view: The guy the Chargers really want is Rivers, and they can extort the Giants, move to No. 4, or even lower, and still get him. Why else would Chargers boss A.J. Smith disclose that the Mannings wanted no part of his team? Now Smith can tell Chargers fans he had no choice but to take Rivers because Manning wouldn't come.
We also won't have to wait long around here for the only local move that matters. The Redskins pick fifth. There will be plenty of great players left. If it's not Miami tight end Kellen Winslow Jr., it'll be Miami safety Sean Taylor, whom the Redskins could also use. Texas wide receiver Roy Williams probably will be on the board. Gibbs said emphatically he did not promise to take Winslow if he is available, contrary to Internet reports.
I must admit, it didn't really hit me Gibbs was actually the coach of the Redskins again until I saw him sitting there with Vinny Cerrato and Dan Snyder talking about the draft yesterday at Redskins Park. There was Gibbs, talking about how the draft isn't that much different than it used to be, about how he told his scouts not to ask him to change any of these kids once they arrived, warts and all.
"I'll tell you what really excited me," he said. "Free agency. . . . In the old days we didn't have that."
Well, actually they did to a smaller degree because the Redskins signed Wilber Marshall away from the Bears back when Gibbs was still head coach. But we get his point. Teams can re-shape themselves so much more in the offseason before the draft than they could 15 years ago.
If you're looking for tip-offs as to who the Redskins will take, there was one moment when Cerrato, when asked about the club's investigation of college players' personal lives, said, "We've sent people down to their campus." Very quickly, Snyder said, "Or up . . . "
Whichever player the Redskins select, especially if we're talking about Winslow or Taylor, will help and probably immediately. But one thing we know for sure is the Redskins won't be the stars of Saturday's draft; the Chargers, Archie and Eli Manning have already made certain of that.

An insult given to someone who is stupid, but no neccesarily an asian 1: Whats that over there?
2: Is it a bird? 3: No, its a train, you stupid asian!! |
1. | stupid asian | ||
Clearly an oxymoron, as no such thing may exist. The day one exists is the day the universe will explode from sheer confusion. Person 1: LOL this asian guy in my math class couldn't answer this easy calculus problem! Stupid asian!
The world explodes. |

Surly such a thing does not exist There is not one stupid asian
3. | Stupid Asian | ||
If someone is Asian and are generally or stereotypically a really smart person, and you ask them a question and they answer it wrong or blank out for a few seconds and say "yeah?", then you are allowed to call them a "stupid Asian". Also, if they do something that is obviously stupid (e.g. jumping off the stairwell while trying to fly...even if they're just joking), than you can also call them a stupid Asian. If they've done something not even stupid or wrong, than you shouldn't call the Asian person a stupid Asian, because seriously, that's like calling this blond haired person a "dumb blonde", if they won a Nobel Prize. It's just stupid... You: Hey dude...so uh, how 'bout that weather today...?
Asian: ... Asian: ... Asian: Whu? You: Ugh, you stupid Asian! You: Mr. _____, what is the answer to 4 + 4? Asian: Ooh; I know! You: ...well, what is it?! Asian: Nine?! You: Ugh, no you dumbass; eight! Agh, you're such a stupid Asian. Asian and You: *laughing* ((There are some more examples, but I'm too lazy...)) |
