The Math Behind the 100-Year, Natural-Gas Supply Debate
"Coupled with other gas shale plays in North America, the prospects for a reliable supply of natural gas for the next several decades are so substantial thatnationalenergypolicywill eventually adapt to this gas shale bonanza," he says.
One reason for differing estimates of natural gas reserves is that they can be measured in different ways.
The Potential Gas Committee, the USGS and the EIA estimate "technically recoverable resources," which can be produced using current technology, regardless of the current price of gas. Those estimates change as technology changes, as has been the case in the past four years with fracking.
A more conservative estimate is demanded by the Securities and Exchange Commission,which requires public companies to provide reserves data in their annual reports. So-called "proven reserves" are only those that can be produced profitably at current prices. Those estimates change as prices fluctuate.
Another term, gas "in place," includes amounts that are not currently recoverable, as was shale gas several years ago. Shale gas that was deemed unrecoverable five years ago, now accounts for over 30 percent of overall U.S. gas production.
A 2011 report by British Petroleum estimated that, by the end of 2010, the United States had "proven" reserves of 272.5 tcf. That represents a 12-year supply, with most energy experts agreeing that "proven reserves" have a 90 percent probability of going to market.
Are Exports the Answer?
"Going to market" with today's natural gas prices, however, is problematic for many energy companies. The current price of about $2.50 per British Thermal Unit is more than 50 percent off the 2011 peak and just a fraction of the record highs of 2008. Price is important because as the price rises, more reserves can move from the "technically recoverable resource" category into the "proven resource" category.
The number of operating U.S. gas rigs dropped 30 percent last year, from 900 to 600, says IHS' Stark. "For a period of time, this will help bring supplies back in line with demand," he says.
Consultants like John Harpole, president of Denver-based Mercurator Energy, think the answer to current price woes lies in exports.
While prices here are below $3, prices in Asia are $14-$16 mmBTU, and $12-$14 mmBTU in Europe, says Harpole, formerly vice chairman of the Natural Gas Committee for the Independent Petroleum Association of America. "If we start selling more in worldwide markets, we might see a stronger price at home."
Stark sees a huge U.S. competitive advantage"with such large volumes of natural gas delivered at a very low price."
"The price in the rest of the world is more than $10 a unit," says Stark. "We have a lot of options to make some really prudent decisions to support the U.S. economy. The amount of natural gas in North America is huge gift for us."

One of the most unique places in the city. Lots of stuff to look at, great atmosphere.
This is one of my favorite bars in St. Louis - the unique atmosphere is unbeatable. Parts of it's oddness remind me of the City Museum! Their patio is A - Mazing in the warm weather!
This Venice Cafe is an experience. ecclectic venue... great drinks, a unique atmosphere, talented local musicians and a patio like you've never seen before. It's like steping into a painting. This place attracts a crowd of friendly considerate people starting at the door with "the world's most dangerous poet". The place has a great vibe ...but you'll have to go....to know.

Take your time and visit all the floors and the patio. You'll see something new every time you visit.
Cool place, unlike anything else around Soulard. Cash only. Makes you feel American to pay cash for a PBR.

I remember studying the Vendome fire in my associate degree class and then reading more about it later. Tragic loss of life. Remembering those Brothers.
I admit to being pathetically inadequately informed about the Father's Day Fire. I believe there was an explosion and collapse, but my memory is fuzzy. I mean no disrespect and believe me I will read up on this fire tonight when I get home from teaching. I can't help but feel of the many days that would be hard to lose your father at a fire this had to be at the top. Remembering these Brothers too.The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing, and becomes nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn and feel and change and grow and love and live. Leo F. Buscaglia

HOWLAND - Police here were looking for an affectionate hit-skip motorist who rear-ended a Fowler Township woman Thursday night, apologized profusely and offered a hug before getting back into her car and taking off.
''I told her to be careful and get back in her car or she might get hit by a car herself. While I called 911, she drove off,'' said Heather Broda, 33, of Bushnell-Campbell Road, who suffered a lumbar sprain
Broda and her 12-year-old son, Devon Pierce, were both taken to St. Joseph Health Center, where her son was treated for a back injury and a concussion. He was off school Friday and missed the chance to play in an upcoming football game.
Broda said she was driving south on Niles Cortland Road when she was hit from behind by a small, dark vehicle, possibly a Honda, that was driven by what appeared to be a teenage girl.
''She was probably a student and might have been wearing a school shirt or sweatshirt,'' Broda said.
''She simply came up and said 'Oh my God! I'm so sorry. Can I give you a hug?''' Broda said. ''Then she was gone.''

LEWISTOWN - In the modern world, the firearm has evolved in many ways, from an essential tool used to hunt for daily meals to a means of recreation. Long gone are the days when the average family had to enter the woods to secure their nightly meal, but many folks still have a curiosity about firing instruments that have fallen from essential to archaic.
Dan Firth leads and teaches a weekly muzzleloaders class at the Mifflin County Sportsmen's Club to a group of students ranging from 12 to 18 years old. The group is part of the 4-H program.
Students of the program are introduced to a series of muzzleloader styles: flintlock, which is the style that hunters are allowed to use late in the Pennsylvania hunting season, percussion and in-line rifles.

Sentinel photos by MATT STRICKER
Smoke and sparks fly as Ben Snyder, 14, of Strodes Mills, fires a flintlock muzzleloader while participating in the Mifflin County 4H Shooting Sports Muzzleloader Competition Monday at the Mifflin County Sportsman's Club in Ferguson Valley.
"I've been teaching for 20 years. We currently have 27 kids involved with the program. That's actually a pretty high number for the muzzleloader group," said Firth.
A muzzleloader conjures up images of an era long past: courageous battles we learn about in school and read about in our history books to primitive hunters, but young and old have found interest in preserving the art of shooting these instruments of antiquity.
"The NRA and the game commission promote a program called the Youth Hunter Education Challenge, or more commonly, YHEC. In order for kids to compete in the challenge, they have to shoot in several disciplines: .22 rimfire, muzzleloader, shotgun and archery. If kids qualify, they can then move on to nationals. We've already had kids from Mifflin County go on to and win at nationals," said Firth.
Before students are allowed to going the muzzleloader group, Firth says that they should have completed a .22 or air rifle program in preparation.

Northern Xinjiang Morning Post
December 28, 2010, in Kuitun, China
Reporter Sun died in a hospital in Kuitun, Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region, 10 days after being beaten by several men at a construction site, news reports said. At least six young men attacked Sun at the site, where the reporter had gone to meet a source.
Authorities dismissed journalism-related motives, saying the attack stemmed from an online dispute involving a social media acquaintance of Sun. The official account, carried widely in state-sanctioned media, was greeted with skepticism in unofficial online media. Colleagues said Sun often wrote stories critical of the local government, including recent reporting on the demolition of a factory to make way for housing for local party leaders, according to local and international reports.
Motive Unconfirmed: CPJ is investigating to determine whether the death was work-related.

They could live separately for a time untill she found a job equal to that which she has, before she makes the move to her husband's new location. Problem fixed. If she just packs up her shit and moves along with him without preparing properly she has made a conscious decision to put herself in a worse situation as far as her individual finances goes... in order for her husband to get in a better position.
Being able to demand redicules sums of money because she prioritized her husbands career over her own is stupid, no one forced her, no one should force her ex husband to pay her for it.

Shit like this actually goes through your fucking brain?
Again, in my example their decision was a JOINT (emphasizing this because people keep missing this) one, it wasn't the wife making any unilateral decisions on her own. That changes my example entirely...I'm sure things like your example happen, but that wasn't my example.They could live separately for a time untill she found a job equal to that which she has, before she makes the move to her husband's new location. Problem fixed. If she just packs up her shit and moves along with him without preparing properly she has made a conscious decision to put herself in a worse situation as far as her individual finances goes... in order for her husband to get in a better position.
To counter your counterexample, I could have said that the husband asked her to move out with him early (before finding a job, etc), or asked her to quit her job to stay at home with the kids while their young "because it's better for the children" or any number of reasons, but that would also change the scope of my example.
You're just ignoring the part where it's an individual sacrifice for the joint welfare by blaming their decision on her, and only her.
You're just inserting that in a blatant appeal to emotions. No one said anything about the sum of money. Ideally it would be to compensate her actual losses incurred by the job change and relocation.Being able to demand redicules sums of money
Most decisions are joint once you are merried, it doesn't remove the responsibility from the individual, she could say "no, that doesn't work for me, we need to come up with something els", they have made a decision as a couple and as individuals, if she willingly puts herself in that situation she is also responsible for that decision and how it affects her own situation. It doesn't matter if the husbands gains most from it.
If she lives with a man that refuses to compromise with her so that both are in a solid seat then I guess all I can say is... bad luck.
---------- Post added 2012-12-08 at 04:02 PM ----------
Nope, I just think she got an individual responsibility, it's an individual and joint decision. She just chooses to give up more then him.
Shit like this actually goes through your fucking brain?
It's interesting though because you are focusing entirely on HER responsibility and not HIS. Even when I give you a counterexample where if there was any individual responsibility/blame to be had, it would be on the husband rather than the wife, yet you still place blame and responsibility on the wife.
Very interesting....
They say a picture is worth a thousand words. I think this applies a thousand times that in the case of the picture you posted. Well said my friend, well said.
At the end of the day, this issue at its core is not about men, women, children or sexism.
It is about leeches, and the flawed legal system that protects, supports and favors them and their leeching process. This needs to be looked at and changed. The system must ensure that both parents contribute a "fair and reasonable share" to the child as a cost of having him/her.
The father should be able to check what his money is being spent on and hold his ex legally accountable if he discovers that it is being squandered on personal luxury rather than the child's present and future essentials.
Also, this also raises the question of "unwanted" kids. If the mother doesn't want the responsibilities, financial or otherwise, of raising children she has protection in the form of the option to have an abortion when she learns of the pregnancy. There needs to be a similar option of protection for men who wish the same, namely 'legal abortion'. Whereby if a man does not wish to have an unborn child or has deliberately not been made aware of the pregnancy, he has the option of legally opting out of fatherhood where he relinquishes both responsibility of the child and his rights as a father. If the mother chooses to have the child in this case she will be the one solely responsible (financially or otherwise) for him/her.
Alimony and child custody is just plain ridiculous. I'm sure it works fine for some but not for a lot of people.
One of my best friends was married and has a daughter. He had a great photography job making twice as much a year as his wife (who worked in retail) but still he was only around 50k/year. He was happy. His wife cheated on him and then wanted a divorce when they stopped getting along after that.
He has never been in trouble and has always been an all around "good guy". He had a good lawyer and by the time they went to court she was already pregnant with another kid with someone elses child (whom she wasn't married to). Not only did he not get custody, he was ordered to pay half his earnings in child support. On top of that the times that she "allowed" him to have custody interfered with his work and he ended up quitting his job for a lesser job at a manufacturing plant near his home that he ended up renting when he moved out after the divorce.
Today he still works there and has very little and has remained single d/t how hard this has been on him, but does get to see his daughter regularly (which he is happy about). She is on her 3rd marriage and has 4 kids. He still pays child support. This guy went from a good family man with a good job to a single man with nothing and no money b/c his wife cheated on him, wanted a divorce, and demanded excessive child support. Then the courts gave it to her.
That's a problem with the system. One example from one person I know. I'm sure my own experiences are not unique.
I believe you can now sign a contract BEFORE you get married, that if you do divorce, how will that plan out.
I know my sister's friend when he got married he had to sign one of those.
I might have to consider writing one before I get married too:
"So, you two, please sign this marriage certificate, but before you do, please sign this marriage agreement first."
The article doesn't seem to tell the whole story...... For example. How the hell does he have a burden of $100.000 for the divorce?
There must be a whole lot of wealth involved that is not mentioned at all. Friend of mine went through divorce, and paid 500 bucks for everything, incl lawyer and court fees.
Thats why you make compromises that are good for both parts, if she ends up unemployed or in a far worse situation jobwise then really thats a result of her own choice. If she doesn't like the prospects of that then she is free to say so, and hopefully her husband will understand and they will come to a compromise that doesn't suck for her.
---------- Post added 2012-12-08 at 04:18 PM ----------
Because it was a shitty compromise(for her as an individual) she made by her own free will.
Shit like this actually goes through your fucking brain?
I'm going out on a limb here and guessing that you have neither a significant other nor children. Sometimes there isn't a third option. Both I and my partner work, but we are lucky to have grandparents who live close enough to look after the children half of the week.
I can see where if a couple didn't have family support, covering child care could break the bank or put a large burden on the family unit. If it came to that, the ONLY sensible answer would be to have the partner who is making more/has more potential for earning to continue and have the other stay at home (in my case, I would continue working - I'll get back to this in a minute). Sure, both parties have to individually agree, but only a fool would argue for taking the lesser income.
Now, if I was in a situation where my partner had to stop working to care for the children and we ended up splitting up some years down the road, I would be more than happy to pay support payments (assuming I didn't have custody of the children - its my damn kids, and I want the best for them and that involves putting my money where my mouth is), but in the same line, I think if I benefited numerous promotions in those years as my career took off while my wife's withered, I would want to pay some money to help get her back into the job market. If she got a better job and in turn contributed more, my children would benefit and I should be able to contribute less to child support.
So in short, I agree with spousal support payments in certain circumstances and for a limited scope of time.
Alimony awarded carte blanche is indeed ridiculous, but no more ridiculous than thinking that an individual should suffer due to a decision made as a marital unit. Thinking and acting as if one foot should remain out of the marriage is not something that should be championed.

I agree that there must be more to the story, spousal support that high that is such a large percentage of income indicates to me that either he had a crappy lawyer or he was actually making significantly more on average than what was stated in the article, or the judge is a total schmuck.
What is unbelievable to me is that the guy can't amend his alimony payments based on change of circumstance, and that the bills that would allow such amendments were voted out of committee. Amazing...glad I don't live in New Jersey :P
For 104k you are better off paying someone to see to it that she has an "accident" and is never found.
Yes that was a thin limb, I do, and we both work. Child care here costs a nickle, it's highly subsidized, so thats not a concern whatsoever, we also got 480 days of paid parental leave, that the parents can split as they like(for the most part), with a garanteed place at work as you get back from the leave. We also have among the highest marginal tax rates in the world to pay for all this (good) shit.
I think this is simply cultural, we do not have any kind of spousal support system here. So it seems out of wack to me.

People should be held accountable for their actions. Just as they should be responsible for providing for themselves and their children. Now how much should be on the father or mother and all the circumstances that affect that weighting is a huge grey area. Obviously its out of whack in this instance but finding the wisest middle ground is an ongoing process.
This. I would say there is no way that he could be paying such a large percentage, or he'd have appealed to a superior court already. Rather than attacking the judge for applying "sharia law" (like wtf). Unless he had $10 million in the bank or something.
He is already supposed to be able to do that. I don't know why the article says otherwise. This is set a long time ago in Lepis v. Lepis, 83 N.J. 139 (1980). Since then a bona fide change in employment has been a valid "change of circumstances" to request reduced alimonies. So yeah, I find it unbelievable too.What is unbelievable to me is that the guy can't amend his alimony payments based on change of circumstance, and that the bills that would allow such amendments were voted out of committee. Amazing...glad I don't live in New Jersey :P

Spartanburg County deputies said a woman swiped $1,300 from her boyfriend, replacing it with some counterfeit money instead.
Deputies said they were called to a home on Old Mill Road after the victim said he found someone had stolen his money from his safe on Sunday.
According to the deputy's report, the victim was the only one who had the combination to his safe, but he realized the storage area where it is kept was damaged. When he looked inside, he said he found seven counterfeit $100 bills instead of his money, deputies said.
When the man confronted his girlfriend about the theft, she said she was angry about an argument they had a month ago and stole the money weeks prior, according to the report.
Deputies said they issued a warrant for the woman but jail records show she has yet to be arrested.

Sometimes, things just don't work the way they're supposed to. So I'll just say right out of the gate I'll be redoing this one because something went quite wrong here.
Wanna see? This is the "short version", there are lots more photos that, had this worked out, would be in here too, like the usual Mis. I'll just jump right in then. Come along and see if you can spot where it went wrong.
So I make the rye sourdough. Nothing tricky here: mix and let sit for 14-16 hours, I went with 16. Next morning, it has expanded nicely.
Mixed the dough, except this time I put the pre-ferment into the water and beat it to avoid clumpy issues. Got a nice starter soup and added the rest of the ingredients.
Add remaining ingredients, mix. Transfer to tub to bulk proof.
And here's where I started to think something was a bit off. Transferring the dough out of the bowl, I felt it was awfully soft. Did I trust my instinct and mix in more flour? No. Proof for 60 minutes.
At 60 minutes, it had risen but not doubled, so I gave it another 30.
At 90 minutes, it had doubled. Hooray! I then turned it out onto the counter. "Glomp!" said the ball of goo as it hit the surface. And spread. This is still wet and gummy, way too soft, I thought. Cut the goo in two and start trying to shape. No way, too sticky. So I try to knead about a 1/2c (I guess, it was several large pinches) of flour to each half until I can handle it enough to shape without it sticking to my fingers. Any trapped gas in this bulk proof is now decidedly gone.
I get the two loaves shaped pretty well in spite of the gooeyness, then plop them into MY BRAND SPANKING NEW CANE BASKETS! They arrived about an hour before this step. Talk about great timing!
They sit for about an hour and, lo and behold, are pretty much risen as expected. I did the poke test and it returned halfway, so not too long and not too short, just right! Over they go onto the peel (with small sheets of parchment for easy moving). Hmm… they're still quite soft and seem to have chosen to widen.
The loaves are slashed as per suggestion in the book and they look like they've spread sideways even more. There's no point turning back now, so they get placed onto the pre-heated stoned oven. I pop the turkey pan on top expecting the excess moisture to really help steam them.
At the 15 minute mark, I remove the pan and… still flat. Risen but not by much, the slashes have barely expanded. They finish up baking for another 20 minutes.
And here's our final crumb shot:
Final tally:
Dance: 10
Looks: 3*
(* 20,000 Free Internet Points to anyone who gets the pointless reference!)
Smelled great, tastes really nice, lovely soft crumb with a little tang. Looks: flat out fail.
So I will re-do this in the next couple of weeks and try to figure what went wrong – I'm guessing here but I suspect perhaps too much water! I'll recalculate basing on the metric amounts and divide by 12.5.
"Where are the recipes?"
I've been getting this question a fair bit so I figure I'll address it here in detail.
[easyazon-image-link asin="0471168572" alt="Bread: A Baker's Book of Techniques and Recipes" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51OV5EvTM6L._SL160_.jpg" align="right" width="130" height="160"]This bread, as all other MellowBakers breads, are from Jeffrey Hamelman's book Bread: A Baker's Book of Techniques and Recipes which is where you can get the complete recipes. We won't be posting the recipes since a) we're doing the entire book (or a huge chunk of it) and that would be unfair to Mr Hamelman to put every recipe of his online, and b) there's so much more info in the book than just the recipe, to pull only the ingredient list out; it would be a disservice to readers to lure them into NOT benefiting from this info. So if you would like to have the recipes we'll be working on, I highly recommend you get a copy of Bread by clicking the links here or in the Yumarama stores on the right sidebar.
"I hear it's geared to professional bakers so it will be too advanced for me."
If you're just getting into bread baking and learning the basics, then yes, this may be a little too technical. It also doesn't have all the "bread porn" pictures other books offer as both guide and inspiration. For a novice, I'd suggest Peter Reinhart's books, such as The Bread Baker's Apprentice: Mastering the Art of Extraordinary Bread, the previous group bake book you'll see tons of recipes from on this blog, or his latest, Artisan Breads Every Day. Both these books and others authors like Dan Lepard (The Art of Handmade Bread), Dan DiMuzio (Bread Baking: An Artisan's Perspective), Maggie Glazer (Artisan Baking) and many others will tackle the idea of baking bread from a slightly less technical aspect and are more suitable to the novice.

But once you've got a few breads under your belt (figuratively and literally) this is an excellent book to have if you want to get a really good grasp of the technology that turns your ingredients from mere ground wheat or rye into a beautiful finished loaf. The first 90 pages of the book discuss ingredients and techniques, you don't even get to the first recipe until page 93. This may sound daunting but is in reality a wealth of information that will make you a better baker who 'gets' what's going on in the dough. Because baking is a science and bread baking brings with it a lot of intricacies that, if you really want to master your bread, you should at least be familiar with. And yes, the book deals with techniques and technical issues but this isn't to say it's difficult to read or follow along. Jeffrey Hamelman has put together a great self-teaching course here and it is well presented in a clear, not-too-complex fashion. You will make better bread because you'll know why you're making better bread.

Shakespearean Boys' Names
Without a specific character description, could some wise Shakespeare-expert provide me a list of names of Shakespearean characters (they don't have to be particularly significant characters, as long as they aren't, you know, Messenger #4 or something, they also don't have to be from any of the more famous plays) that are male. It would be especially helpful if they exceeded favorites such as Romeo, Benedick, etc., and also please don't include any names non-reusable (mostly villains...Iago, Claudius, and the like; if they're victims, I still consider that usable).
I would love if some of these names had a hard C or a K sound in them, but that's secondary to the above.
Thanks so much Berries!

I came across some surprising displays of hate towards River, even such bold statements that her appearance destroyed the show, or that we wasted a whole season on her.
That's what a man gets, trying to introduce us to a female lead outside the Tardis.
In other words, trust the Moff, her story is not over yet.

How much is a playoff spot worth?
Apparently, for the Washington Redskins at least, it was worth two first round draft picks and a second rounder - that's the net price they paid to acquire QB Robert Griffin III in the 2012 NFL draft.
RGIII paid immediate dividends in 2012, leading Washington to its first playoff appearance since 2007 and its first division title since 1999. RGIII has become wildly popular in Washington and around the country, with his jersey sales recently breaking the all-time single-season record.
On the other side of this trade ledger was the St. Louis Rams. On top of acquiring all those draft picks from Washington, they picked up an additional second rounder by trading down again from the #6 pick last year to Dallas' #14 pick, and stockpiled even more draft picks with other trades in later rounds.
All of this highlights the youth movement being orchestrated by Rams' head coach Jeff Fisher and GM Led Snead, each in their second year with the franchise. The team said goodbye to veteran RB Steven Jackson and WRs Danny Amendola and Brandon Gibson this offseason, among others. The few free agents the team has signed are also relatively young, most notably OT Jake Long (27 years old) and TE Jared Cook (26), the latter originally drafted by Fisher's Tennessee Titans in 2009. The Rams currently have only two players over 30 years old on their roster - G Harvey Dahl (31) and LB Mario Haggan (33) - while almost 70% of their current roster is made up of players with three years experience or less.
In some ways, the Rams 2012 draft trades represent a team opting to pass on short-term success for a potentially bigger payout down the road. After a dismal 2011 season, the team appears to be heading in the right direction under Fisher's leadership. The team improved from 2-14 in 2011 to 7-8-1 in 2012, and while that record would be mighty disappointing in Steeler Nation, it's nearly cause for a parade in St. Louis, where the team hasn't made the playoffs since 2004 and has endured records of 3-13, 2-14 (twice) and 1-15 in that span. Other positive signs include the fact that it was actually the Rams who had the best divisional record in the suddenly tough NFC West last season (4-1-1), and they also tied for the lead league in sacks (52).
To avoid tipping my hand for the Rams' next pick at #22, I won't get into too much detail about Jeff Fisher's draft history or the team's needs with this post. However, the way our mock draft has gone so far plays well into the position I consider the Rams' biggest need: safety.
Last season's starting safeties Quintin Mikell and Craig Dahl are both gone, the former mostly due to age and salary cap issues and the latter due to ineffective play. The team hasn't really brought anyone in to replace them, only re-signing third-year man Darian Stewart, who played sparingly last season after starting 13 games in 2011. With only Matthew Daniels and Rodney McLeod left on the roster as other options at safety (both 2012 undrafted rookies), the team is perilously thin. The situation is so bad, I almost have visions of the Rams lining up nine men on defense on opening day this coming season.
With the 16th pick in the 2013 NFL Draft, the St. Louis Rams select Kenny Vaccaro, Safety, Texas.
Brian Spurlock-USA TODAY Sports
If there's one thing I've noticed in perusing the "experts" pre-draft evaluations this year, it's that they can't seem to agree on anything - even more so than usual.
People have been making a case for Texas' Kenny Vaccaro, Florida's Matt Elam, Florida International's Jonathan Cyprien, or LSU's Eric Reid as the best safety in the draft. The Rams get their pick of the bunch, and Vaccaro is the guy most consistently rated as the cream of the crop. Even though I'm pretty confident about this pick, it should be noted that the Rams have surprisingly failed to bring in any safeties for a pre-draft visit so far. Also, as I just listed the draft is pretty deep at safety, so they could go in a few other directions here. But I think Vaccaro represents the best confluence of value and need at this point.
The Rams finished 15th in the league in both passing defense and rushing defense last year, so you can't really make a case for them to need to improve in one of those areas more desperately than the other. Vaccaro does both well, as he often played close to the box at Texas and led the team in tackles in his final college season. He also has the ability to play man-to-man coverage with tight ends and slot receivers, lining up as a nickel cornerback on passing downs.
The knocks on Vaccaro are his lack of speed and experience playing deep, where he could be exposed if he's lost as a center fielder. However, with the Rams' consistent ability to get their pass rush to the quarterback, it's hopeful that Vaccaro won't have to worry about playing the deep ball very often.
Vaccaro's athleticism will also help the Rams contain the division's scrambling quarterbacks like Colin Kaepernick and Russell Wilson, especially when he lines up close to the line of scrimmage. Some doubt he will ever become an elite safety a la Troy Polamalu or Ed Reed, but he still has Pro Bowl potential and fills a huge need for the Rams.
Note on the Vikings vacancies: Our original Vikings rep did have to drop out, and those two picks are currently unclaimed. If you did not get a team and would like to participate, sound off in the comments and we'll work it out. To reiterate - priority will be given to those who do not already have a team in this community mock draft.

[JURIST] The UN Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) [official website], tasked with investigating the February 14, 2005 assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri [JURIST news archive], officially began operating Sunday. The STL will be located in The Hague and the prosecution of its cases will be lead by Daniel Bellemare [Ya Libnan profile]. In an open letter to the Lebanese people, marking the end of the International Independent Investigation Commission (IIIC) [authorizing resolution; UN materials] into the assassination and the beginning of the STL's operations, Bellemare wrote that his goal as prosecutor was to maintain the tribunal's independence, while ensuring that those responsible for the killing were brought to justice:
My commitment to you is to serve the cause of justice on the basis of a principled approach based solely on facts and evidence. Like the Commission, the Office of the Prosecutor will not be influenced by any political consideration. Justice can not and should not be used as a political tool. Like the Commission's work, the findings of the OTP investigations and the steps I would take as the Prosecutor, as well as the outcome of the STL should not be prejudged or speculated upon.The STL is not after revenge: it is after justice. Everybody, be they witnesses, detainees or accused, will be treated with dignity. Justice requires no less. Dignity is the hallmark of a credible and humane Justice process.Lastly, I want to reassure everybody that my team and I will do everything that is humanly and legally possible to ensure that the truth emerges and that those responsible for the crimes that fall within our jurisdiction are eventually brought to justice.This objective should not only be that of the Office of the Prosecutor, but it should also be the common and resolute goal of the People of Lebanon.
[JURIST] Somali President Sharif Sheikh Ahmed [BBC profile] said Saturday that he would support the imposition of a moderate form of Sharia [CFR backgrounder; JURIST news archive], Islamic religious law, as part of a cease-fire agreement with the country's Hizb al-Islamiya and Al-Shabaab rebels. Ahmed said, however, that he would not agree [CNN report] to provisions that would prohibit girls from attending school, require women to wear headscarves, or ban music and television. Ahmed made the concession at the behest of Islamic religious groups that are mediating the conflict [IslamOnline report] between the government and the rebels, but Sunday reports [AFP report] quoted rebels denying that a peace agreement had been made. Members of the country's parliament, which would have to approve implementing Sharia in order for it to take effect, have expressed support [PressTV report] for such a proposal. It is not clear what impact the rebels' rejection of the peace deal with have on the possible legislation.Somalia has endured a lengthy civil war and several rounds of failed peace talks [BBC timeline] since the collapse of its last civil government in 1991. The country's transitional government is just now shifting its base [VOA report] from Djibouti to the Somali capital of Mogadishu. In December of last year, Human Rights Watch (HRW) [advocacy website] released a report [text, PDF] accusing both rebels and the government of having committed war crimes in the conflict. In January 2007, the transitional government began imposing martial law [JURIST report] over areas under the government's control.
[JURIST] Police in Bangladesh [JURIST news archive] on Sunday charged [Daily Star report] more than 1,000 members of the paramilitary Bangladesh Rifles (BDR) in last week's border guards mutiny [BBC Q&A], which killed dozens of top BDR officers, including the force's commander. The government plans to organize a special tribunal [AP report] to try the organizers of the revolt. Among those charged are six accused of planning the revolt, including four deputy assistant directors. The government said that a previous offer of amnesty from Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's [official profile] would not apply [bdnews24 report] to those directly involved in the mutiny. The revolt was motivated by disputes over pay, conditions and the selection of top officers from the regular army rather than from within the BDR.The incident comes in a time of difficult transition for Bangladesh. Bangladesh voters elected Hasina in December 2008, ending two years of military rule. In January, Bangladeshi Law, Justice, and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Shafique Ahmed [official website] declared [JURIST report] his government's desire to restore Bangladesh's 1972 constitution [text, PDF]. Prior to the elections, interim Bangladeshi president Iajuddin Ahmed [official profile] signed [JURIST report] the Emergency Powers (Repeal) Ordinance of 2008, lifting a two-year state of emergency to allow for political campaigning. The state of emergency, declared in January 2007 [JURIST report], had suspended democratic rights throughout the country.
[JURIST] A military jury in Kentucky on Saturday sentenced US Army First Lt. Michael Behenna [JURIST news archive] to 25 years in prison after convicting him Friday of the murder and assault of an Iraqi detainee. The 101st Airborne Division officer, who claimed he acted in self-defense by shooting the victim, could have received a life sentence in the proceedings at Fort Campbell [official website]. Staff Sgt. Hal Warner [JURIST news archive], who threw a grenade on the body of victim Ali Mansour Mohammed, initially thought to have been released by Coalition forces in May 2008, testified against Behenna after pleading guilty to assault, maltreatment of a subordinate and making a false statement. On Monday, the judge will hear Behenna's arguments for mistrial [AP report], based on a claim that the prosecution withheld evidence. Behenna was acquitted on a charge of making a false statement.The US-led Multi-National Force-Iraq [official website] brought murder charges [JURIST report] against Behenna and Warner in August. In September, a US soldier and an Iraqi translator testified against Warner in a preliminary hearing [JURIST report]. Behenna's conviction follows the conviction [JURIST report] a week before of US Army Sgt. Michael Leahy Jr. on charges stemming from the 2007 deaths of four Iraqi detainees.

"Get over the banding fiasco--this is a great monitor!"
on by sbrage2000Pros Great design, color, contrast, price.
Cons Banding fiasco :)
Summary After researching monitors for the better part of a month, I ended up going with the Dell 2007WFP. In terms of price, quality, warranty, etc, it was by far the best deal. I actually purchased two which sit on my desk and provide a wonderful panaromic view. I would give it a 10 if it wasn't for the aggravation of...
The Banding Problem. It's definitely there when you're hooked up in DVI, although it's something you have to look for, not necessarily a glaring problem under most circumstances. Hooked up in VGA (which I am) it goes away completely. I knew about this issue when I bought the monitors hoping they would ship me "fixed" models but knowing I could replace them if they didn't. Unfortunately, they sent me "banding" versions and I am in the process of having them replaced. Luckily, I get to keep the current ones until the replacements arrive, and in VGA mode, I am perfectly content. I am a little ticked off at Dell for shipping older models knowing that the vast majority of consumers won't notice the difference.
Overall, I would highly recommend this monitor in spite of the "issue". If you get a model A00 (check the serial on the back) go straight to the Dell forum and request a replacement from ChrisM the moderator. Aside from this minor pain in the butt, you're getting a top notch product.Updated
Got two replacement monitors today (rev A02) and there is no banding in DVI mode. Color and contrast are still excellent, no dead pixels and it took less than a week for Dell to send the replacements. So after the dust has settled, I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending these monitors. -
"Do not BUY! Big interface problem!"
on by 0n7RPros Not until they have a new revision
Cons Color Banding, Can not display 32-bit colors!
Summary http://*******.com/qubd2
This monitor has a big flaw. When dispalying color gradients you will see banding problem. It is like going back to 16-bit colors (you will notice the banding)
Editor please run a gradient test and re-evaluate. You will see a big problem on colors. And Dell does not offer a solution, we are waiting for days!
Skip this one! -
"A fantastic monitor that gives a lot of real estate for a very reasonable price"
on by chrispy2006Pros Backlighting, high contrast, pip, pbp, pivot
Cons Minor detail lost in blacks, pivot requires you to tilt monitor out first
Summary A fantastic monitor that gives a lot of real estate for a very reasonable price. Fantastic backlighting and viewing angle is superb. The ability to format a 4:3 image as scaled or stretched and even zoomed allows great flexability.
Text is clean and crisp, colours are pretty accurate, however due to the high contrast minor details can become lost in the darker regions of the picture.
Coming from a beloved Hitachi 19" CRT the screen is very bright and just shows how much LCDs have improved over the last 18 months. Backlighting and the increased contrast ratio (over the 2005FPW) are welcome improvements.
Gaming is superb with no visible tearing in NFS Most Wanted. Have yet to see any ghosting. I'm more of an occasional gamer, but I think this monitor performed admirably and even though the game was running at 1024x768 the graphics were still crisp showing the monitors processor does a great job of scaling. I don't really watch movies from my computer, but I did test We Were Soldiers. The dark scenes were a little too dark for my liking. This may be a result of the increased contrast. You can compensate for this through your graphics card drivers though, but this may be important for those who want use this primarily for movies.
The stand is easy to use, however my gripe with this is that when you want to pivot this massive screen you have to tilt the screen upwards else the corner of the screen hits the stand or desk.
The OSD is okay, but a little fiddly and you'll probably want to adjust the transparency to make it more clear which menu item you are actually on. Love the Pcture In P icture and Picture By Picture (PBP) modes, although the images are way too small in PBP to be usable. These are both only usable by Composite and S-video inputs and not by the analog input (assuming you are using the DVI interface).
The buttons on the base of the screen allow you to select any one of the four inputs, select standard, PIP or PBP modes or access the menu.
The inclusion of 4 USB ports (2 on the side plus 2 on the rear) is great and is a welcome feature. Cable management is also great and is very Apple like.
I would highly recommend this monitor, but if you are coming from a 19" CRT you won't get a massive increase in real estate, so you may want to keep your old monitor and use it as a second monitor for dual screen (as I have)... Depending on your needs of course.
Overall, I love this monitor and Dell's customer service is second to none. With a 14 day no quibble returns policy and a 3 year on-site warranty you really can't go wrong with this screen. -
on by sdavid8000Pros Nice and big
Cons Banding issues on EVERY ITEM.
Summary Check the Dell forums BEFORE you buy this monitor. There are MAJOR banding issues using the DVI connection and running at full resolution.
"A great LCD that shows some minor improvements over the 2005FP, and one small step back."
on by crowingPros Slick new look, bright, good color reproduction, all the amenities.
Cons A bit expensive without coupons, minimal cable management, issues with banding
Summary I moved up to the 2007wfp from a 17 in. CRT, so it's no suprise that I'm thrilled with the extra real estate and the wider screen. But what I wasn't expecting is how much sharper text is, or how vibrant everything looks. I think this is a great multipurpose LCD that shows some minor improvements over Dell's previous version, the 2005FPW, and one small step back.
First, a lot of people have been waiting on this model due to it's HDCP support. HDCP is a new type of copyright protection that may or may not be needed with the next generation of high definition media. While it's not critical for most users, those that use their computer as an entertainment center may want to take note.
Next, some people were put off by Dell's 2005fpw due to issues with backlight bleeding. It was generally found that you could see some of the lcd lighting leaking out around the corners when the screen was supposed to be dark. Luckily, that seems to be less of a problem this time.
This monitor does well to live up to Dell's reputation. Whether you like the new industrial look is largely up to personal taste, but other things like USB hub, full height and tilt adjustment, and screen rotation are just plain nice to have. Aspect scaling is still included, which is great if you have a game or application that doesn't agree with the widescreen setup. As a casual gamer I have yet to see any major problems with ghosting or tearing. However, there is one drawback.
Those who are into graphics creation and editing may not like the fact that this LCD shows color banding. To explain, banding is when a gradient (a slow shift beteen colors) doesn't display as smoothly as it should. I hardly notice it, but I'm no professional. Then again, those type of people can afford a more expensive monitor anyway, right?Updated
The price on the 2007WFP has been dropping and now this: a recent update to the firmware of this LCD is confirmed to fix the banding issues this monitor had in the past. That's right, 2 of the bigggest drawbacks to this screen are no longer an issue. If didn't have neough reason before, now the time to replace that fuzzy old CRT.
