State minimum wage rises 6 percent in 2009
Published on Wed, Jan 7, 2009 by
Evan Mclean
Read More
What increase came first - the inflation or the wage?
Washington state's minimum wage increased Jan. 1 to $8.55 per hour. As with every wage increase, workers are glad to see a higher number on the right side of their paycheck while small business owners find themselves looking over their books, trying to find a way to make up the difference.
The state makes sure the minimum wage keeps pace with cost-of-living increases and often the wage increase means a hike in the cost to deliver goods or services, according to local officials.
"It's an interesting dilemma," said Vickie Maples, Sequim-Dungeness Chamber of Commerce executive director.
"Workers make more money due to cost-of-living increases but the cost for goods and services goes up as a result."
Washington has the highest minimum wage in the nation. Its neighbor to the east requires the federal minimum wage, $6.55 an hour. Oregon employers must pay at least $8.40 an hour.
"The Washington minimum wage increase reflects increases in the consumer price index and is considered just enough to meet the most basic of expenses," said Economic Opportunity Institute spokesman Aaron Keating. "It is just enough to keep pace."
The Economic Opportunity Institute, a Washington nonprofit working on economic security issues, tracks how well different family budgets handle the cost of housing, health care, transportation, child care and other necessary expenses.
According to the institute, the 2009 wage increase will result in the same buying power minimum wage workers had in 2000, when Washington's minimum wage was $6.50.
Washington was the first of 10 states to annually adjust its minimum wage for inflation and is one of 23 states with a minimum wage higher than the federal rate of $6.55, according to Keating.
A full-time minimum wage employee in Washington will make $17,784 before taxes this year.
"Even with the highest minimum wage in the nation, full-time minimum wage workers in Washington earn only just enough to stay above the federal poverty line and far less than required for a family budget," an institute December 2008 report reads, further indicating accommodation and food service industries and their employees are the most affected.
Maples agreed that service industries would be impacted first, but said changes to wages have a ripple effect throughout the economy.
"Even those businesses unaffected directly will likely see increases in the costs of goods and services they need to do business," she said. "Employers always want to give a livable wage, but that bottom line is beginning to loom because of this economic uncertainty."
Maples said the best way to ward off a local economic downturn, both in the face of an economic slump and a minimum wage increase, is to shop locally. She said a strong local economy has the potential to shield employees from losing hours or their jobs.
"Buying goods and paying for services through local businesses will make all the difference," she said.
"Employers have less of a problem paying or hiring employees, those minimum wage employees can put that 6-percent increase back into their and other people's jobs and dollars raised here are kept here rather than floating off out of the area, leaving Clallam County with fewer dollars around than it had before."

To promote their school and recruit new students, Detroit's College for Creative Studies came up with these funny ads that resemble anti-drug PSA ads. Although there are far worse things than being an art student, the campaign reminded me of a recent article about how China is canceling college majors that essentially don't pay. Although CCS' campaign is clearly satirical, it's a bit frightening that in a struggling global economy like ours, these ads have sort of become a reality.

It's in Brayan Pena's job description to understand his pitchers -- what they want to throw, when they need a breather, and how they want to approach certain hitters.

Comments, questions, opinions...this is your chance to speak out regarding anything and everything reported on U.S. Farm Report. Viewer feedback updated regularly.
#2: I agree there are many items that should NOT be purchased with food stamps. When I see parents weighing 300, 400 pounds or more leading around young children who are ALREADY 100 pounds overweight and their grocery cart is filled with snack cakes, honeybuns, doritos, potato chips, carbonated drinks, ice cream, candy and, if the kids are 'lucky,' some pizzas or tv dinners, I just have a hard time with that. When my children were very young (more than 35 years ago) and I had to have food stamps for a short period of time, I did not buy such stuff as that...if I had, my children would not have had any healthy food to eat. I always made sure they had healthy food. If they got chips or cookies, etc., they had to use 'grandma's' allowance money to buy them! If you think the medical problems of Americans are bad right now, just wait a few years...you ain't seen nothing yet! I still have to use food stamps from time to time because I am disabled (crippled), but I don't even buy processed foods for myself! I cook my meals or eat salads from scratch. Only healthy foods should be paid for by food stamps...if people want junk food, they will FIND a way to pay for it...STOP making it easy for people to be SICK! Thank you for your down-to-earth sensible show, I try to watch every week. We need some sanity in a world filled with INsanity. Please don't use my name...it's no one's business if I have to use food stamps sometimes. Until October 2003, when I became crippled, I worked 7 days a week, 365 days a year! I grew up on a tobacco/dairy farm in central North Carolina so you KNOW I had to work to survive. Then I raised my three daughters by myself for 30 years and you know I had to work hard to do that, too (no support from their father). Several of my neighbors who have gardens will bring me the produce they don't use and I either can it, dry it or freeze it. I get people to help me pick up apples and pears and anything else I can get for free and can that, dry it or freeze it, too. I work HARD for my food and I think everyone else should, too. I also garden a little, as much as possible but I try to have staples such as asparagus and sunchokes, things I don't have to plant every year. Lettuce in raised beds, tomatoes on the porch in big pots, etc. Oops, didn't mean to run on for so long! Love all your shows on RFD-TV and tell everyone about it! Rebecca White Lincolnton, NC
#3: I saw your broadcast of May 15, 2010. I think that people should be able to use food stamps to buy sushi. It is one way to get people to purchase, sample, eat, introduce to their children, and keep eating healthier foods. Healthier habits. Sheree Lewis

Comments about Per-fekt Beauty Skin Perfection Gel, Rich, 1 fl oz:
This is a fabulous product! I am nearly 60 and was hoping this would serve as a makeup...sadly the coverage is very sheer. I have red veins & small pigmentations that this does not cover...so be advised this is NOT a makeup. BUT, if you put this on before your makeup, it absolutely helps to minimize pores and your makeup will stay on better and last all day! It has a wonderful silky feel when you apply it and you can see your skin become smoother instantly. I have sensitive skin & this does not bother me at all. I also like the fact that there are no parabens or fragrance. If you are a younger person with nice skin this would be fabulous to wear alone! For older women, you must ry it! It is a little pricey, but I've had my bottle about 2 months & still have some left, so I think it is worth the price! The only con I can think of is, you can't tell when you are running out of the product in the pump bottle. I wish they would come out with this same product in a true makeup!!

I tried this on at a store and absolutely loved it - I was looking for a sheer, lighter foundation and the salesgirl showed me this product. Its the perfect shade for my olive skin and my friend (who has lighter skin than me) even bought it to use a bronzer - another trick the salesgirl showed us. I'm so happy its here so I can just order online now!
I have been wearing Perfekt for months now and can't say enough good things, yes - its a little pricey, but I use this instead of my foundation, concealer and powder now, so I feel like I'm saving money, and the larger bottle lasts me 2 months, so its worth it in the end. Plus I've never worn a makeup that looks as natural as Perfekt. No one can even tell you have makeup on, its the look that people are like what's different. Its amazing!

Working alongside licensed architects and construction engineers, expediters accelerate town hall construction- and occupancy-permit processes.

The 404 626: Where we dream the impoffible (podcast)
A quick announcement prior to today's episode of The 404 Podcast: Good news! After several failed attempts at watching "Inception," we learn today that tickets are indeed still available for purchase. The bad news is that you have to hike out to Hoboken, N.J., to see it.
Jeff caught a showing of it last night, and Wilson joins in as they offer a unique review of the rather confusing film. Jeff even wonders if director Chris Nolan has a firm grasp of the winding plot, and it apparently doesn't help when Ken Watanabe stumbles through … Read more

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama on Friday nominated the Pentagon's former top lawyer to help craft U.S. counterterrorism policy as secretary of the Homeland Security Department, suggesting a shift from the department's emphasis on immigration and border security.
Jeh C. Johnson, whose first name is pronounced "Jay," would replace Janet Napolitano, who left the post last month to become president of the University of California system.
Obama said he was nominating Johnson because of his "deep understanding of the threats and challenges facing the United States." He credited Johnson with helping design and implement policies to dismantle the core of the al-Qaida terror organization overseas and to repeal the ban on openly gay service members in the U.S. military.
"He's been there in the Situation Room, at the table in moments of decision," Obama said as he announced the nomination from the Rose Garden on a crisp and sunny fall afternoon.
The Homeland Security Department was created in response to the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, which Johnson noted fell on his birthday. He noted that he was in Manhattan on that fateful day when the World Trade Center was struck, and he said he was motivated to do something to help the country in response. But he left government service in 2012 and said he was settling back into private life and work at a law firm.
"I was not looking for this opportunity," Johnson said. "But when I received the call, I could not refuse it."
Obama's selection of Johnson suggests the agency will be stepping back from its emphasis on immigration to focus more on protecting the nation from attack.
Unlike Napolitano, Johnson has spent most of his career dealing with national security issues as a top military lawyer. Issues he handled included changing military commissions to try terrorism suspects rather than using civilian courts and overseeing the escalation of the use of unmanned drone strikes during the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Napolitano, who came to the department after serving as governor of border state Arizona, made clear that her top priority was immigration reform, and she routinely championed the issue in congressional testimony.
Johnson, a multimillionaire lawyer outside of his government posts, has defended the administration's targeted killings of U.S. citizens overseas as well as the role of the U.S. spy court and crackdowns to keep government secrets.
If confirmed by the Senate, he would manage a department with more than 20 different agencies, a budget of more than $45 billion and a staff of hundreds of thousands of civilian, law enforcement and military personnel. On any given day, the job includes making decisions about disaster relief, distribution of a shrinking grants budget, which immigrants living in the United States illegally to deport and how to protect passenger jets from would-be terrorists.
Johnson would inherit a department whose public face in recent years has been associated with immigration. But that's an area he has little experience with, so his nomination could suggest the agency will move more to a focus on protecting the homeland from attack.
He has made clear his support for using done strikes to kill enemy combatants, including U.S. citizens overseas. He has also said that he considers "lone wolf" terrorists to be a law enforcement problem, not enemy combatants who should be targeted in military strikes.
Johnson's experience in dealing with overseas actions and counterterror decisions may also be helpful for a department still trying to define its role in the fight against terrorism. Homeland Security has a growing footprint around the world.

Blast from the Past: Literally
The Daily Post is on hiatus this week, so we'll be highlighting great posts from the archives that you might have missed the first time around (never fear — there'll still be a new Photo Challenge on Friday!).
Today, grammar guru Daryl explains how "literally" literally came to mean its opposite — and why that's okay:
English usage snobs all over the internet shudder when they hear the word "literally" used to mean its opposite. For example, somebody who claims to have been "literally scared to death" actually means that he was figuratively scared to death. If he had been literally scared to death, he wouldn't be around to tell us about his fate. Search Google for the simple word "literally" and you'll find no shortage of sites correcting the misuse. Some fun treatments include that of The Oatmeal (beware, it's a little off-color) and xkcd.

Person Details
Birth name:
Raymond Andrew Winstone
February 19, 1957 in Hackney, England, GB
A strong character actor known for his multi-dimensional portrayals of hard men on the wrong side of the law, Ray Winstone burst onto the scene with a riveting performance in the British-made "Scum" (1979), only to spend the ensuing decade wallowing in lesser roles unworthy of his talents. Forced into bankruptcy and on the outs with acting by the end of the 1980s, Winstone re-emerged with an acclaimed performance in friend Kathy Burke's stage play, "Mr. Thomas," which not only helped relaunch his career, but also invigorated his confidence. Ever since that play, Winstone developed into a highly-sought performer who - with age and experience - gravitated towards more complex characters, portraying often violent men with a strong degree of sympathy, as he did playing an abusive alcoholic in his breakthrough performance, "Nil By Mouth" (1997). But it was his turn in "Sexy Beast" (2001), as a reticent ex-con beset by a rabid ex-colleague trying to recruit him for a job, which earned Winstone some of the highest praise of his career. From there, he entered into the realm of the high-profile Hollywood feature, appearing in "King Arthur" (2004) and "The Departed" (2006), before co-starring in perhaps one of the most anticipated summer movies of all time, "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" (2008). Acclaimed projects like "Hugo" (2011) and "Great Expectations" (PBS, 2012) only solidified Winstone's reputation as one of the most prolific and acclaimed actors of his generation to cross the Atlantic.

Police in Seattle, Washington, say a drywall contractor who beat out competitors for more than a million dollars in government contract work has a simple method for keeping costs low: he allegedly underpaid his employees, and threatened them with retaliation if they complained. Police say they got the goods on the contractor by infiltrating his workforce using undercover agents, according to a report in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer ("Undercover Seattle cop trained as drywaller to investigate abusive contractor," by Levi Pulkkinen).
"Caught following an intensive investigation that saw a Seattle police officer trained as a drywall installer and inserted into his company, Dathan L. Williams is alleged to have bragged about threatening his employees with deportation when they asked to be paid correctly," the paper reports. "Williams, 32, appears to have been targeted as part of a larger investigation into claims that Washington subcontractors are abusing workers and ignoring wage laws meant to keep opportunistic contractors from underbidding those paying higher wages. Williams has been charged with first-degree theft, a felony, and related offenses."

Lisa Robin Kelly -- who played Eric Forman's older sister on "That '70s Show" -- has died ... TMZ has learned.
The 43-year-old actress passed away in her sleep Wednesday night at a rehab facility in California.
We spoke with Kelly's agent who tells us the actress had just voluntarily checked herself in for treatment for an alcohol problem this past week ... and was determined to clean herself up.
The agent tells us, "She had been fighting demons for a while and finally lost her battle."
Sources tell us Lisa had been in and out of rehab centers hoping to kick her alcohol problem ... and most recently fell off the wagon after a huge dispute with her estranged husband Robert Gilliam.
Sources say ... Kelly's estranged husband beat her last May to obtain residual money from her show. He was convicted of domestic battery last month and sentenced to 3 years probation. He also served 35 days in jail for the beating.
Lisa filed for divorce from Gilliam back in July.
We're told Lisa's new boyfriend brought her to rehab again on Monday ... but she went into cardiac arrest late Wednesday night and could not be saved.
The boyfriend blames her estranged husband for the relapse.
Sources connected with the attempted rescue tell TMZ ... when emergency responders arrived at the rehab facility, they found needle marks on both of Lisa's arms.
However, her BF tells us the reason for the needle marks is that he took Lisa to a hospital on Sunday -- because she had a .34 blood alcohol level ... and nurses made multiple attempts to insert a needle into her vein to extract blood.
After several attempts, medical personnel were able to use a vein on the top of Lisa's wrist.
Kelly had been troubled for the past couple of years -- she was arrested at least 4 times in the past 3 years for DUI, spousal abuse and assault.
Besides "That '70s Show," Kelly had appeared in several TV shows and movies including "Amityville Dollhouse."

Tough luck and in other news, hundreds of Egyptians killed. Christian Churches are being burned and no one is saying $#it about it.
So sorry Lisa, RIP! Iv'e read things have been very hard for you in the last few years! I pray you are in a much better place now, and very happy! Im very sorry to your family and friends who are hurting!
Ok, so now we've got the Bachelor chick, this 70's Show chick.... come on Miley Cyrus. Complete the trifecta!
RIP Lisa. I liked you on that 70's show and thought you were very talented and pretty. 43 is too young to be taken. Condolences to your loved ones.

Crimson and Cream Machine takes a look at the upcoming Oklahoma men's basketball season. Can the Sooners bounce back and make a postseason tournament?
OU will face off against women's basketball powerhouse Connecticut in Norman on February 15.
Juan Pattillo got dismissed Sunday from the OU basketball team.
The Big 12 - Pac 10 Hardwood Series games have been announced and OU will play Arizona.
Oklahoma women's basketball team advanced to their second Final Four ever tonight.
This is the March 30th edition of the Sooner Sports Notebook. It includes short blurbs on the OU women's Elite Eight appearance, Blake Griffin's recent awards, fallout from the Calipari situation, and highlights from the McDonald's All American activities.
Here's a snippet of what Roy Williams said: "He's a load," Williams said. "Please don't make this to be a comparison -- [but] he is LeBron James-like. He's got such a package of strength,...
The Oklahoma Sooners had an awful performance today which involved a bad 5:57 stretch with 1/7 shooting and 4 turnovers. They also shot 2/19 from the perimeter. Despite all that, it's important to remember the big picture - they still had a great season.
Awesome. I've heard this story from a number of different sources today. Good news. This means Oklahoma will have 3 McDonald's All Americans playing together next year.
A few initial thoughts on the Sooners' Elite Eight opponent - the North Carolina Tar Heels. The Tar Heels are the most efficient offensive team in the country - can OU stop them?

Chocolate Beer Cake
Categories: All, Cakes, Desserts, Recipes
Tags: , Allergy Friendly, Chocolate Cake, Dairy Free, Earth Balance, GFCF, Gluten Free Beer, Gluten-Free Chocolate Cake Recipe, Green's Beer, St. Patrick's Day Recipes, Vegan
Since I will be in England when you read this, actually toasting the founder of Green's Gluten-Free Beers with a Green's Gluten-Free Ale, it seemed fitting to share the moment with you through cake. Beer cake, to be exact!
I've been making this cake for several years now with Green's Dubbel Dark Ale and it always receives wows. Its dark chocolate undertones really highlight the cocoa here without weighing the cake down. It's hard to describe how light, airy, fluffy, and softly chocolate this cake actually is. It's anything but over-the-top sweet – in other words you can eat a whole slice without passing out from sugar! It's the kind of recipe you will want to print and hold onto, to make again and again!
I show in one of my cooking videos how to make the frosting for this lovely cake, topping it like the rich head of the beer used to make it! Don't be daunted if you're dairy-free – it's just as delicious made dairy-free, even with the cream cheese frosting!
People ask all the time though if they can use another gluten-free beer they have on hand instead. Like anything else in gluten-free baking, why not try it and see how it turns out? With chocolate in the cake and yummy frosting on top, it's bound to still be tasty!
If you really want to try the real deal though, ask your favorite local store to carry Green's beers for you!
Chocolate Beer Cake
- 1 cup dark gluten-free ale (Green's Dubbel Dark Endeavor Ale)
- 8 Tbs. unsalted butter or non-dairy alternative (Earth Balance® Buttery Sticks or Shortening Sticks)
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (not Dutch Alkalai Processed)
- 2 cups granulated cane sugar
- 3/4 cup sour cream, dairy or non-dairy (Tofutti® Better Than Sour Cream or Follow Your Heart® Sour Cream Alternative)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 Tablespoon (*not teaspoon) gluten-free vanilla extract
- 2 cups Jules Gluten Free™ All-Purpose Flour
- 1 Tablespoon (*not teaspoon) baking soda
(*Note- you will need a large saucepan for this recipe, not a mixer and mixing bowl!)
Preheat oven to 350 F (static) or 325°F (convection).
Prepare a 9-inch springform tube or bundt pan by buttering and dusting lightly with Jules Gluten Free™ All Purpose Flour.
In a small bowl, whisk the sour cream with the eggs and vanilla.
Measure out 1 cup of beer and let the head settle do be sure your measurement is correct. Pour the beer into a large saucepan (you can drink the rest!). Add the butter and heat just until melted over medium heat. Whisk in the cocoa powder and the sugar until smooth.
Add the egg mixture into saucepan mixture and whisk. Add the flour and baking soda until mixed.
Pour into the prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out fairly clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan on a cooling rack for 15 minutes, then invert to remove from pan onto a cake plate.

Judy said: on April 7, 2011
I made this cake yesterday for my birthday. It turned out really well! Was able to cut the cake in half to make it a two layer cake (used springform pan). Thank you. What do you think about using cola instead of the beer for a different flavor?
Take care,
Jules said: on April 8, 2011
Hi Judy- I love the idea of using a soda! The carbonation is key, but you may want to cut back on the sugar if you're getting a lot of that syrup from the cola. Please let us know how it turns out! I love recipe innovation!!!
Aldo said: on May 24, 2011
My wife has tried this recipe. And I really like it. She also said that she like Judy's idea about changing beer with soda. You should post another cake recipe, my wife and I are really enjoyed it.

HI Jules!!!
Great to see you comment on one of our shared favorites! I have to say, from a beer perspective, it will be extremely hard to beat the dubble dark for a chocolate cake. We use it in chocolate brownies as well and although there are other gluten free beers I enjoy, the dubble dark is the bomb for chocolate!
Again, great to see your comments and post on one of my favorite subjects … Gluten Free Beer!
Jules said: on June 20, 2012
Luv gluten-free beer Joey!!! Just did a beer tasting in the UK with Derek Green himself — so awesome! They have so many more choices in the Green's line in Europe, as well. Even a "light" Green's! So ingenious and so delicious!
Laureen @ Fox in the Kitchen said: on June 15, 2012
I made a gluten free Guinness type Dubbel Dark Chocolate Cake for my son's birthday in March. Love how flavourful and moist a GF beer cake comes out. I plan to attempt a Dubbel Dark layer cake for fathers day
Can you tell me why you heat the beer, butter, cocoa and sugar?
Jules said: on June 20, 2012
Hi Laureen, heating these ingredients helps to begin the sugar breakdown and melts the butter too. Mixing them at that temp assures they will be well mixed, as well. Hope you get to try this recipe soon — it's super delich!
T.R. (@TRCrumbley) said: on June 15, 2012
Holy cow. This sounds and looks delicious! I am definitely trying this recipe at some point in the next week.
Jules said: on June 21, 2012
Hope to hear soon how much you loved it, TR!
Lauren said: on July 10, 2012
Thanks, Jules! I'll be trying this recipe out very soon!
Brazilian Coffee said: on July 11, 2012
Yummy recipe and interesting to bake,hoping that one day i can bake that kind of a cake:)
Patria Garland said: on March 5, 2013
Switching to a gluten-free diet is a big change and, like anything new, it takes some getting used to. You may initially feel deprived by the diet's restrictions. However, try to stay positive and focus on all the foods you can eat. You may also be pleasantly surprised to realize how many gluten-free products, such as bread and pasta, are now available. Many specialty grocery stores sell gluten-free foods. If you can't find them in your area, check with a celiac support group or go online. ..

A fire that badly damaged a west suburban home Wednesday night may have been caused by a lightning strike.
The fire occurred just before 9 p.m. at a two-story, wood frame home in the 2100 block of Schoolhouse Lane in Aurora, city spokesman Dan Ferrelli said.
The initial call was that the roof was on fire and when firefighters arrived they found it fully engulfed in flames. The fire destroyed the roof and much of the second floor, Ferrelli said.
Damage to the single-family home was estimated at $150,000, he said. No one was injured in the blaze, to which nine fire units responded.
Although the cause had not been confirmed as of late Thursday morning, officials have not ruled out the possibility of a lighting strike, Ferrelli said.

In the fifth part of our series of training-camp reports, we look at NFC East teams, including a Redskins club with newcomer Donovan McNabb at the helm.
Cowboys' Bryant becomes first first-rounder to agree to terms
Dez Bryant became the first draft choice from the 2010 first round to agree to terms on a contract, a reported five-year deal with the Cowboys.
NFC East sleepers few and far between
The NFC East stands as one of the toughest divisions, top to bottom, and there are not a lot of quality sleeper candidates with so many established stars.
Cowboys' Spears must work to keep job
Cowboys DE Marcus Spears' name was floated around the NFL draft in trade talks, and he could be fighting DEs Stephen Bowen and Jason Hatcher to keep his starting job.
Unga, Price-Brent selected in supplemental draft
Two of the four players available in the supplemental draft were selected in the seventh round, as the Bears nabbed Brigham Young RB Harvey Unga and the Cowboys selected Illinois DT Josh Price-Brent.
Cowboys' Ratliff says best yet to come
Cowboys NT Jay Ratliff was named to the Pro Bowl in 2008 and '09 and was a PFW/PFWA All-NFC selection in '09, but he says he feels he hasn't reached his potential yet.
Cowboys ILB Williams faces crowded situation
Following the drafting of LB Sean Lee in Round Two this year, ILB Jason Williams' place on the Cowboys' roster is in doubt.
Cowboys WR Austin signs tender
Cowboys WR Miles Austin signed his restricted free-agent tender Friday, with an eye on reaching a long-term agreement with the team before the start of the season.
Cowboys keeping eye on Bryant's conditioning
The Cowboys knew when they drafted WR Dez Bryant that they were getting a potential steal with the 24th pick in the draft, but also a player that came with serious questions.
Cowboys' Jones reverses field on Barber
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones previously had speculated publicly that RB Marion Barber might be better suited in a reserve role, but Jones hinted that Barber might remain a starter.
Cowboys, Rams make Barron-for-Carpenter deal official
The Rams and Cowboys made official a trade that had been in the works for nearly a week, sending LB Bobby Carpenter to St. Louis and OT Alex Barron to Dallas in a swap of failed former first-round picks.
Cowboys considering Carpenter-for-Barron deal
Jerry Jones had said that the team would explore adding depth at a few positions, including the offensive line, and now the Cowboys are discussing a trade for Rams OT Alex Barron.
Report: Barron-Carpenter trade nearing completion
A trade in which the Rams would send OT Alex Barron to the Cowboys for LB Bobby Carpenter is expected to be finalized Monday, according to NFL Network.
Vets feeling heat with rookies on board
The draft is in the rearview mirror, but here are five veteran players who could be looking over their shoulders with rookies gunning for their jobs.

Here are the players who were chosen by the Dallas Cowboys in the 2010 NFL draft.
Hatcher has signed his tender offer with the Dallas Cowboys.|||||||
Hatcher was a third-round draft choice in 2006, taken 92nd overall. In 62 regular-season games, he has 113 tackles, 6 1/2 sacks, five tackles for a loss and 58 pressures. He appeared in all 16 games last season as part of the defensive line rotation, making 29 tackles.
