Eli Manning will play Saturday
After missing the Giants' second preseason game to recover from a forehead injury, QB Eli Manning will return to the field Saturday against the Ravens.

The Titans signed Jasper on Wednesday.||||||| The 6-foot-4, 375-pound Jasper was on Buffalo's practice last season and on the active roster for the final week. A seventh-round draft pick out of Bethel, Jasper is a native of Mount Juliet, Tenn.
The Buffalo Bills have released offensive lineman and former seventh-round pick Jasper three weeks into training camp.||||||| Listed at 6-foot-4 and 375 pounds, Jasper spent much of his rookie season last year on the Bills practice squad before being activated for the final game. Jasper was regarded as a raw, untested talent, when the Bills took a slight gamble in drafting him out of Tennessee's Bethel University with their second of two seventh-round picks.

I originally bought this battery thinking it was a real Samsung product. After I ordered it, I read all the problems people were having with "look alike" batteries for the Samsung S3. All I can say is that my fears were unfounded for the one I was sent. I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 i535 phone and the battery I was sent works as good as the original Verizon and charges all the way to 100% both in the phone and with the Overstock charger I bought with it.
Genuine OEM replacement at a fraction of the battery or cell phone store price
My husband's phone was shutting down and wouldn't hold a charge for longer than a few hours. Took it to the repair place and they wanted ** to even look at it. His contract is up in a month, so I just took a ** shot and ordered this battery. Worked like a charm! He literally charges his phone every 2 to 3 days now. I'm very pleased and will be ordering another. Thanks!
When the battery in my Samsung Galaxy S3 died, I didn't realize that finding a replacement would become a daunting task. I checked with Best Buy, only to find out that they don't sell them, Neither did any of the local Verizon Wireless stores. So, I started to search online and couldn't believe the prices that some of the vendors were asking. Other reviewers cautioned buyers about purchasing knock-off Samsung batteries that didn't do the job. When I found these batteries on Overstock (they appeared to be OEM), I was eager to make the purchase for two batteries at a decent price. Well, after using BOTH of my batteries in the last month in an attempt to keep my cell phone alive, let me just say "buyer beware". These batteries will not take a charge! After leaving my phone turned off and plugged into the charger overnight, the phone indicates a 100% charge. As soon as the phone is turned on and unplugged from the charger, the battery life immediately goes down to 13%. So, my hunt resumes for a battery that will keep my phone in a usable condition. I can't upgrade to another phone for at least six months, so hopefully something will turn up in my quest to find a battery that works!
I was hoping this battery would hold it charge like the original that came with the phone but it wasn't. I fully charged the battery, unplugged it, and didn't use the phone for 4 hours. I got a warning from my phone that the battery was low. that is even worst then the battery I currently have.
not sure how it will pan out, however looks like fairly realistic looking Samsung battery. I will charge and see.
The best used cell phone battery I have bought so far. Great standby & talk time. Although I knew it was most likely used, I would suggest that the seller note new or used in his/her listings, since most buyers would assume it was new.

Digging Into Social Media to Build a Newspaper Audience
'We weren't even sure whether a mainstream news site could become part of the cybercommunities that evolve from social media sites.'
By Bill Adee
Meet "The Colonel." He's a pretty dapper guy. In his early 50's, he has worked for the Chicago Tribune and lived in the city his whole life—well, except for that stint in the Army Reserves. That's how he earned his nickname. He started out as a copy boy in the newsroom, worked his way up, and now he's Web ambassador for chicagotribune.com.
Because he spends so much time at the Tribune, he lives in the South Loop, close to Soldier Field and his beloved Bears. The Colonel is adventurous, and he makes his way around the city to try all sorts of different foods. He loves eating steak at Gibson's outdoor cafe and is not above heading over to Jim's Original for a Polish.
While he's a Web guy, the Colonel starts his day off with a cup of Stewart's coffee and the papers. He'll check out chicagotribune.com and suntimes.com for local news, then he'll scan nytimes.com and latimes.com. After his daily news fix, he watches the latest viral videos on YouTube.
The Colonel is very interested in local politics, and he's a take-things-one-issue-at-a-time moderate. His news tastes are reflected in what he shares with his friends. He makes a point to interact with Tribune readers individually, but he'll do this, too, on Facebook, Twitter, Digg and other social media sites and blogs.
"I'm here to make the most of your time," he says. "My goal is never to send out a link that's lame."
The Colonel doesn't exist. Or does he?
Roughly 40 percent of the traffic arrives at chicagotribune.com when a user types our URL into a browser or goes to a bookmarked page.
The other 60 percent? That traffic comes via search engines, Web sites, and blogs. On a typical day in early 2008, Google was our No. 1 source of outside traffic, followed by Yahoo! (#2), CareerBuilder (#3), Fark (#10), The New York Times (#20), and Facebook (#47). In all, more than 4,000 sites sent users our way—with 350,000 different clicks.
At chicagotribune.com, a lot of our time is spent focused on our content, as it should be. But given those percentages, we needed to be asking whether another very important job we have is to make sure our content finds an audience and connects with people in other areas of the Web.
That question led to our "Project O." The "O" was for search-engine and social media optimization and for Owen—as in Owen Youngman, the Chicago Tribune vice president who championed and funded the group tasked with spreading our content to the rest of the Web.
Social Media's Viral Power
"Texas youth justice"
Texas youth justiceFor me, Project O's genesis occurred in March 2007. Back then, I was the former sports editor at the Tribune who'd been working as associate editor for innovation for just a few months. Tribune national correspondent Howard Witt wrote a piece about Paris, Texas, a small town with a troubled history. Published on March 12th—and available online that same day—Witt's story attracted 16,000 page views. The next day, the count dropped to 1,300. But on March 21st, nine days after it appeared on the newspaper's front page, this story about a tiny place far from Chicago generated 43,300 page views. By the end of March, this story was our site's most popular story, with more than 126,000 people coming to chicagotribune.com to read it.
What happened? Turns out that more than 300 blogs had linked to the story, and it became popular on Digg, where stories are submitted by users and then promoted to the home page based on the rankings of users. Roughly 35,000 page views of the total came from people who went directly from Digg to our Web site to take a look at this story.
That was my first experience with Digg and the viral power of social media. And it made a lasting impression. It forced me to think about how the Tribune and other newspapers produce so many great stories—a lot of them with remarkable images—and yet, in the typhoon of information, I wondered how people can find ones they might not know exist but will be drawn to read once they do. And how might we be able to help make this happen. Clearly this question went beyond searching online, since I doubt many people set out in March to pop the words "Paris, Texas" into their search engine.
I knew then that there was an active role for us to play in doing a better job of bringing what Tribune reporters work hard to produce to the attention of new and appreciative audiences. And we had to take the material to these audiences, wherever they are finding and learning from each other on the Internet. Then we had to somehow connect the material we had with people who might be interested in taking a look. To do this, our job would be to construct cyberconnections that, when acted on, would mirror the serendipitous reading experience familiar to so many as they thumb through pages of a newspaper. What made this a bit different, however, is that we needed to figure out how to do this systematically, rather than relying on luck and happenstance.
Colonel Tribune Goes Social
It was Saint Patrick's Day, 2008, and Daniel Honigman and I were sitting in my office. Honigman was the first of the four 20-somethings I hired for Project O. He quit a full-time job and signed on to this project for $500 a week, no benefits, and no guarantees beyond the 12 weeks that the Tribune had approved to fund this project.
We had no handbook to follow, nor anyone inside the company to whom we could turn for advice. We weren't even sure whether a mainstream news site could become part of the cybercommunities that evolve from social media sites. But Honigman had impressed me several months earlier with a story he'd written about the importance of influencers to corporations and his abiding interest in social media and search-engine optimization.
In addition to using Google Trends, which tracks and reflects what keywords people are searching for on a daily basis, we decided to start by focusing on a few social media sites—Facebook, Twitter, Fark, Reddit and Digg. I was concerned about having Daniel and the three others I hired—Amanda Maurer, Erin Osmon, and Christina Antonopoulos—use their own Facebook profiles to represent the Tribune. Daniel suggested we create an online avatar, and that's how "Colonel Tribune," a nod to the newspaper's legendary figure, Col. Robert McCormick, was born.
I know what you are thinking. How could you pick an old white guy with a military title to be the Tribune's ambassador in the world of new media? Believe it. The Colonel has taken on a life of his own though Twitter and other social media sites where he can be found. He routinely gets news tips from some readers, hears from others about corrections and typos in stories, and he is offered story ideas. One example: The Colonel was notified via Twitter about a bomb threat and building evacuation downtown. The tip was checked out by a reporter, and the story was posted on chicagotribune.com.
Through Twitter and Facebook, we've invited people to meet-ups at a local bar. They showed up in numbers that surprised us—and even paid homage to the Colonel by wearing his trademark hat.
The goal for Project O was one million page views a month. By June, at its peak, it was doing more than six times that number. And so our project continues with permanent funding.
Can a mainstream news site become part of the social media scene? Absolutely, yes. But be warned. To do this requires having the same kind of great team I had: Facebook-savvy youth, an innovative Web staff, and an extremely supportive newsroom. Even then, it will be essential to become immersed in the various communities and to reach out in ways that create interactive relationships. Like friendships, these are ones that come only with time, trust and hard work.
For us, we had a Colonel to help.
Bill Adee is editor of digital media for the Chicago Tribune.

"an old white guy" as coded language for someone bad.
Not acceptable. You should do better than that.

I think the thing that made Colonel Tribune such a hit was how active they were with responding to people.
I don't know about you all, but I do get some private messages from the Colonel here and there that just puts a smile to my face. Makes me feel special and warm inside. ;)

I like the "history" part about the Colonel starting out low and working his way up. Reminded me of a favorite relative who worked for the Trib 72 years! yes 72..started out selling papers on the corners and later was a proof reader when he was 90 yrs. old.
Fascinating person to talk to, as he had seen so much.

You're too kind, Bill. Thanks for the (digital) ink.
See you at the Tower.

Good show! Great marketing. Marrying the old with the new. Journalism needs a new face and a new approach. CNN seems to be "getting it". I am rooting for the experienced face with the funny hat that shows that he (and the Trib) are willing to try it the 21st century way. I will be staying tuned.

A cartoon sketch of some old guy who looks like the drunk uncle in some forgettable Warner Bros. comedy from 1947.
Yeah....that's the road to the 21st Century.

Interesting. I have to say, I've only recently noticed "The Colonel," so I'm a latecomer to his meanderings around the Web. But I wish him, and the team that created him, nothing but success. As a former ink-stained wretch, it's really painful to watch what's happening to newsprint these days.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Freshman Anthony Collins scored 17 points to lead South Florida to a 56-47 victory over Villanova on Wednesday night in the second round of the Big East tournament.
The sixth-seeded Bulls (20-12) lived up to their defensive reputation, holding their ninth straight opponent to less than 60 points. South Florida set the conference record this season by allowing just 56.9 points per game.
Victor Rudd Jr. added 13 points for South Florida, which will play third-seeded and 23rd-ranked Notre Dame in the quarterfinals on Thursday night at Madison Square Garden.
Mouphtaou Yarou had 20 points for the 14th-seeded Wildcats (13-19), who finished one point above their lowest total for the season and who with 2 minutes to play were in jeopardy of breaking the Big East tournament record for fewest points in a game.
South Florida led 27-17 at halftime as Villanova went 5 for 25 from the field, including Maalik Wayns missing all eight shots, five from 3-point range. The Wildcats missed their first 10 shots from beyond the arc, with James Bell finally making their first one with 13:40 to play.
The Bulls weren't exactly lighting up the scoreboard but they shot 42.1 percent from the field (16 of 38), while Villanova was 17 for 50 (34 percent). South Florida, which turned over the ball 18 times, was 2 for 10 from 3-point range and Villanova was 3 of 16.
It was the third time South Florida beat Villanova this season and until this game the Bulls had held the Wildcats to their lowest first-half total of the season, 20 points.
Villanova trailed 46-35 with 2 minutes left but was able to score 12 points in the closing 1:42 to avoid the marks for offensive futility.
Wayns averaged 24 points in the three games since returning from a sprained MCL in his left knee, including 28 in the opening-round win over Rutgers. But he had nine points on 3-of-14 shooting against the Bulls and that included missing all seven of his 3-point attempts.
This was the second straight year South Florida beat Villanova in the Big East tournament. The Bulls won 70-69 in the opening round last year.

Service Cluster Board Flex Fund
The student-led Service Cluster Board provides "flexible funding" from the SGA Finance Committee for student volunteer initiatives. Read the guidelines and submit an application for funding your volunteer service project. Questions can be e-mailed to the Service Cluster Board. Please note: this funding is only available for academic year initiatives, not summer projects.
Community Engagement Mini-Grants
This mini-grant program is for student initiatives involving community action: Community Engagement helps students fund independent activities and/or projects that are not otherwise fully funded by another department or student organization. Applications should be submitted at least two weeks prior to the date of the proposed activity or project.
Past mini-grant awards have included funding for conference fees, transportation, project supplies, postage, film screening rights, and community-based research-project expenses.
To apply for funding, please complete the following forms. Note: Mini-grant funding is not available for summer initiatives. For all international internships and service work, please apply for Cross-Cultural Community Service Fund Grants rather than Community Engagement Mini-Grants.
Cross-Cultural Community Service Grants
The CCCS Fund supports international community service, advocacy, and activism. The fund is endowed by a Middlebury Class of 1987 alumnus and supports international service-learning and community-building internships and/or related volunteer service opportunities for undergraduate students. These internships and service initiatives may be student designed; preference is given to those opportunities in a culture distinctly different from the applicant's background. Funds are available throughout the academic year and for summer experiences.
If you are applying for funding to support a for credit Winter Term Internship, then please complete the Application for Winter Term Cross-Cultural Community Service Internship Funding through CCI.
For all other CCCS requests, please complete the following:
- Budget (see a Sample Budget)
Questions about CCCS grants may be directed to Tiffany Sargent, Community Engagement Director.
Academic Outreach Endowment Fund
The Academic Outreach Endowment Fund provides financial support to both faculty and students for pursuits that involve community-connected teaching, learning, and research. Examples of these kinds of approaches include project-based learning (when there is a direct community connection), service-learning, community-based learning, participatory action research, and more.
Additional Funding Opportunities
Check with the Student Government Association (SGA) Finance Committee for information on funding for student groups. Read about Student Organization Resources. Be sure to read the guidelines carefully about student fund-raising on campus—many restrictions apply.

What is the Decennial Census?
A decennial Census for the purpose of Congressional reapportionment is mandated by the U.S. Constitution. The first Census was held in 1790 and counted only heads of household. Over time, the Census has expanded to count every person in the U.S., including information on their age, race, ethnicity and more. While there may be portions of the population that go uncounted, it is the closest we have to complete demographic and economic data on the U.S. population.
Census Questions & Variables
Questions change from Census to Census (sometimes dramatically), which means that the statistics available change from decade to decade. The easiest way to find out what information is available for a specific Census is to look at the Census questionnaires. If the question wasn't asked, the information isn't available. It's that simple. For copies of the original Census Questionnaires since 1790, see the Census publication Measuring America: The Decennial Censuses from 1790 to 2000. It is also available in print at the Library.
You can also check out the various years on the "Census by Decade" tab of this guide to find the different variables for each year.
For most of the twentieth century the decennial Census has included a "short form" with questions answered by every household in the country, as well as a "long form" that is answered by about 1 in 6 households. Questions on the short form (age, race, etc.) are the basis for the Census 100% data (available in Summary file 1 & 2). Questions on the long form (education, income, etc.) are the basis for the Census sample data (available in summary file 3 & 4). The 2010 Census did not include a long form; instead, sample data previously collected on the long form is now collected regularly through the American Community Survey (ACS).
Starting Points for Census Statistics
The two resources below are the most comprehensive collections of decennial Census/ACS statistics. Social Explorer, which is restricted to UCSD affiliates, is simpler to use than American FactFinder and includes historical data. American FactFinder, a product of the Census Bureau, is freely available on the web.
- Social Explorer 1790-2010+. Data from the decennial Census and the American Community Survey, with a user-friendly interface. Allows the creation of maps & statistical tables. Census Tract boundaries are available back to 1940. Also includes religion surveys from 1980-2010, which are not affiliated with the U.S. Census. (Note: this database has a limit of 5 simultaneous users.)
- American FactFinder2000- . Data from the decennial Census and the American Community Survey about households, education, income, homeownership, business, and more.
Other Censuses
Most references to "the Census" pertain to the decennial Census and the American Community Survey, which compile demographic and housing information about the U.S. population. Three other censuses, conducted by the U.S. government every five years, focus on collecting economic data.
- Census of AgricultureCollects data on number and size of farms and ranches, costs of production, value of products and selected characteristics of the owners. (See our library catalog for related print publications.)
- Economic CensusCollects data on size and number of business establishments, number of employees, sales, shipments, receipts, payroll, and whether women or minority owned. (See our library catalog for related print publications.)
- Census of GovernmentsCollects data on state and local governments. Data collected includes number and types of governments, number of employees and payroll, budgets and revenues, and fiscal relationships between governments. (See our library catalog for related print publications.)

K2 SideKick (2013)
The widest ski in the category, the Sidekick is an adventure seeker best suited for powdery trees and back bowls (No. 1 in Flotation). Rocker in the top third eases over crud and absorbs bumps, while a solid sandwich construction offers power and stability. It has a soft, progressive flex�easy but never noodly. Tip-flap is slightly disconcerting on hardpack, but if the groomer is soft the Sidekick'll carve. Notes: The Sidekick is the flagship model of K2's Backside series of women's adventure skis, and at 108 mm it's one of the fattest women's skis on the market. It's a powder specialist but K2 builds in enough versatility for variable soft-snow fun too. As with all of the "Side" skis in the tour-ready Backside collection, the emphasis is on the descent rather than the ascent. It's a metal-reinforced, wood-core, women's-specific K2 Bioflex3 construction, with aspen underfoot (80 percent) for strength and responsiveness and paulownia (20 percent) tip and tail for softer flex and reduced swing weight. It weighs 1,970 grams at 167 cm. In women's skis, K2 uses thinner metal laminates than it the ones used in men's skis to reduce weight and soften flex. HybriTech Sidewall construction combines a sturdy vertical sidewall underfoot for edge grip, lightweight cap fore and aft for supple flex. K2's All-Terrain Rocker combines 70 percent camber with 30 percent tip/shovel rocker to smooth the ride, enhance forgiveness and improve soft-snow flotation. The Powder Tip is tapered so it's less easily deflected and swing weight is reduced. Tip and tail hardware is removable, and the holes readily accept pre-cut K2 skins for touring. The pink ribbon on the base signifies K2's support (at least $75,000 annually) for the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

BuddyPress displays 403 Forbidden after mysql import of WordPress DB
Hi everyone:
I just exported a WordPress 3.0 database using mysqldump. I used the command:
mysqldump –add-drop-table -h db01.example.net -u dbocodex -p dbwp > backup.sql
I imported using:
mysql -h db01.example.net -u dbocodex -p dbwp < backup.sql
I checked the db tables and all looks to have been imported fine. I ran a SQL Update on the Options table and on the posts table to change the guid and posts content to the new URL.
I'm now getting a 403 Error Permission Denied. Not sure what that's all about. Anyone have any ideas?

Driven from Sea to Sea - Current Availability
Submitted by Tom Simmons (not verified) on Sun, 03/06/2011 - 4:11pm.
I wonder if the railroad CEOs back then received prank telegrams from the Koch brothers? FYI, while I treasure the ability to use an original book in Western History, for extended reading at one's leisure I would point out that "Driven from Sea to Sea" is available for download on Google Books. The illustrations are quite nice.

Polk County Sheriff's deputies released white doves in front of the Sheriff's Operations Center Wednesday to commemorate the 12th anniversary of 9/11 terrorist attacks.
To honor the first responders who died trying to rescue people during and after the attacks, deputies released 50 white doves.
Frank Fanni with "A Touch Above" provided the birds for the ceremony. He specializes at dove releases at weddings, funerals and other ceremonies. He has helped grieving PCSO families at funerals for the agency members, Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said.

This is the album that peers into Satans phychie.If you want to go to hell this is the album to buy!Totally original thinking here with blatant disrespect for God.Probably the blackest of all metal bands with chainsaw ripping guitars and bone crushing bass.Atomic drums accent this throat bleeding vocalists wit.First bought it in 1982,still scares me today.

This is the beginning of Black Metal glory along with Bathory. This album is killer with great songs, great powerful riffs, great vox, good drums and awesome metal lyrics even though it is lacking somewhat in the production dept. which makes it all the more enjoyable. Awesome band, great underrated classic metal album!
Though now I have grown up from the times,I still will remember!
VENOM! It was a time where Clint was lost and felt he was alone
and though he always said his prayers at night(I was raised a
Catholic,but still said prayers to Allah,Zeus,Odin,Rah,Budah
and God) I found myself wanting to know more of the angel that
was supposedly God's Fav. Venom was a three piece band that
played like a six piece! They had riffs that though simple
were still hard to duplicate and I am still BEDAZZLED that
my Bro. NO LONGER DEVIL(A AMAZONER) could not play,for
he could play Kurt Hammit,Tony Iommi and Randy Rhodes
to a tee. But not Black Metal? Why? My girl Mrs. Bronson
explained it fully! VENOM IS MOST UNORTHODOX! Meaning
that Chronos did not abide by the rules of music and
like Aleister Crowley did WHAT THY WILT! VENOM'S BLACK METAL
was a mile stone album that has stood the test of time!
I have read a lot of reviews stating that they were really
orig. Though I will not go that far(c'mon people! I feel
the passion for this album,but there were bands like MOTORHEAD
MISFITS and The Heavy above alllllll BLACK SABBATH before Venom)
This album still holds it's place in Metal History for EVERY
song is CLASSIC! Though now that I'm older and respect the
music of such artist's like Boz Scaggs and The Spinners
VENOM will always have a place in my HEART!
"Black Metal", an album that is just as its' name implies, is in my opinion Venom's finest hour. Just as the rest of Venom's catalog, "Black Metal" goes without hooks or in sync melody, and opts instead for over the top heaviness, pounding drums, ripping guitars, and toungue in cheek lyrics about the man downstairs. Songs like "Black Metal", "To Hell and Back", "Buried Alive", and "Sacrifice" are all great thrashing songs, while the unexpectedly laugh out loud hilarious "Teacher's Pet" shows that the band is more than what they are perceived to be and really do have a sense of humor. I say that this album is important for a very good reason; every thrash band that boomed in the 80's (Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, Slayer, Exodus) cited Venom as one of their top influences, and Pantera frontman Phil Anselmo even cited "Black Metal" as one of the most influential albums of his life. All that there alone is reason enough to give Venom a listen. This recent re-issue has a much sharper sound than any of the previously available imports, which makes it all the sweeter for new listeners to check out.
I just bought this cd and i havent stopped listening to it! It is an amazing album…just raw fast riffs and fast drumming! It is a classic metal album, although Venom is not really that well-known by some metalheads. Amazing songs on this album include the title track "Black Metal", my personal favorite "Countess Bathory", "Raise the Dead," "Acid Queen," and "Heaven's On Fire." This is just a raw album full of catchy riffs and Cronos (vocals, bassist) yelling and moaning and acting possessed, ot is just soooo awesome.

Thread: Mewelde Moore finding his niche
Mewelde Moore finding his niche
[size=13pt]Mewelde Moore finding his niche[/size]
By Eric Krupka on October 11, 2006 12:39 AM
He's too injury prone.
He isn't big enough.
He isn't tough enough.
He can't carry the load.
Minnesota Vikings running back Mewelde Moore has heard all the reasons why he isn't the featured back. And while all the detractors' statements may have been true at one point or another, don't let it fool you. The real reason Moore isn't the featured back in Minnesota is because of one person: Chester Taylor.
Still, the 5-foot-11, 209-pounder is finding his niche as the main backup to Taylor, a third-down back, and as a punt returner.
Heading into the season, it seemed as if the third-year pro had fallen out of favor with the coaching staff as he entered third on the depth chart. However, it was nothing of the sense. And after an injury to Ciatrick Fason opened up the chance to be the main backup, Moore has yet to relinquish it.
Believe it or not, the Tulane alumnus may actually have more value in his current role rather than if he was the starting running back. His versatility is very much like the starter, Taylor, except he is a bigger boost to special teams. Both have good hands, vision, and are a threat in the running and passing games.
Currently, through five games, Moore is averaging 6.3 yards per carry, albeit in limited attempts, and 6.9 yards per reception.
Oftentimes he will check in on third down and either carry the ball on a draw play, or catch a pass on a check down from quarterback Brad Johnson. Moore's shiftiness and propensity to grind out yards has helped his case to be on the field more.
Moore's greatest impact is probably on special teams. The first evidence of this can be seen last year when he returned a punt for a touchdown against the New York Giants .
So far this season, he is averaging 7.1 yards per punt return, down from the 11.7 he averaged in 2005. In just one kickoff attempt, he returned it for 25 yards. Even though he muffed a punt, then turned the ball over, fumbling after picking it up Sunday, the Vikings' second-stringer is making his mark on the team.
Third-down back.
Punt returner.
Whatever it takes to win games.
Mewelde Moore has finally found his role with the Vikings.

Re: Mewelde Moore finding his niche
memo only gets the 6.3 avg bc he gets top run on 3rd an 8u or 3rd and 10+, i think he should stay returning punts and maybe run splitbacks on passing situations to get both him and taylor or richardson on the field as 2 checkdown options for bj.... hes not as great as people thinks but he's also not bad
Thanks josdin00

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have placed Nicks, an All-Pro last season, on injured reserve.||||||| Nicks, an All-Pro with the Saints in 2011 before signing with the Bucs as a free agent, will require surgery on his left foot to repair a toe problem. He has started all seven games with the Buccaneers and played in all 71 of his team's games since entering the league in 2008, including 68 consecutive starts.
The New Orleans Saints agreed to terms with fifth-round draft choice Carl Nicks on Wednesday, leaving only top pick Sedrick Ellis and second-round choice Tracy Porter unsigned on the eve of training camp.||||||| Saints general manager Mickey Loomis said Nicks, an offensive lineman, signed a three-year contract. He did not disclose financial terms. Nicks, who is 6-foot-5, 343 pounds and can play guard or tackle, was picked 164th overall out of Nebraska, where he started 11 games in 2007. He played in 23 games for the Cornhuskers after transferring from Hartnell Junior College in Salinas, Calif.

Jeter injures pinkie; in Sunday's lineup
Girardi slots captain as leadoff batter at shortstop against Pirates
TAMPA, Fla. -- Derek Jeter was removed in the fourth inning of the Yankees' 6-4 Grapefruit League victory over the Atlanta Braves on Saturday with a bruised left pinkie knuckle. He was in Sunday's starting lineup against the Pirates, batting leadoff and playing shortstop.
Asked Sunday morning about the extent of his injury, Jeter replied: "I didn't even know I was hurt."
The play in question occurred in the top of the first inning, when Jeter hit a sharp ground ball that second baseman Martin Prado bobbled. First baseman Greg Norton received Prado's hurried throw, but he collided with Jeter, and both players fell to the ground.
Jeter remained in the game and flied out in the fourth before he was replaced in New York's lineup on a double-switch for the bottom half of the frame.
After spending the better part of three weeks playing for Team USA in the World Baseball Classic, Jeter said that he would expect to play in almost all of the Yankees' remaining Spring Training games. New York has four Grapefruit League games left on the schedule before traveling north to open the new Yankee Stadium with a pair of exhibition games against the Chicago Cubs on April 3 and 4.

My Uncle Barry is, unfortunately, still missing. This continues to be active search, and Barry has still not been seen or heard from since 12/3. His wife initially hoped he had gone out for an early morning walk or run (something he often does). Barry is an active, deeply thoughtful and well-read man; however, he has experienced some "senior moments" that could cause confusion or disorientation.
Again, the search continues to be very active and has now expanded beyond the immediate area. It is entirely possible that Barry is no longer in Lafayette, so the family asks that you please share his photo with any friends or relatives living out of town. The more eyes that see his smiling face, the more likely we can bring Barry back home to his deeply-concerned family. Thank you for your compassion and assistance!!!

PEORIA, Ill -- As students head back to school this year, some are facing a new reality, a peanut and nut free area.
Dr. Kenneth Arnett, a pediatric allergy specialist at OSF Saint Francis, said a child doesn't even have to ingest anything Just coming in contact with nut oils can cause a reaction ranging from rashes and swelling to throat closure or death.
That's why more and more schools are banning peanuts and other nuts from campus.
"If you have even one child that you can prevent having a death related to an anaphylaxis reaction to peanuts," Dr. Arnett said. "I think it's well worth it."
Peoria's District 150 now has 12 schools that are nut-free, new this year is Hines Primary. They have about five students that are highly allergic to peanuts.
"If a child is that allergic and it's that much of a health issue, why put that child in that situation?," District 150 spokesman Chris Coplan said.
Also adding the nut-free status this year is Germantown Hills District 69. Out of 280 students this year in their K-2 building, 12 have a nut allergy.
"We truly believe that this is a reasonable response due to the number and severity of the allergies that we have," Superintendent Dan Mair said.
This means changes in the cafeteria, as well as what parents can send for lunch.
Michelle Wells has a 2nd grader at Germantown Hills. Wells said her daughter is a very picky eater that happens to love peanut butter.
"I think my overall problem, and not just my problem, but a lot of other parents who have voiced their opinion about this is why remove the rights of all for a few," said Wells.
Both districts said they evaluate the situation each year based on the medical needs of their students.
Meanwhile the debate rages on among parents and schools.
"Is it the school that really wants to protect the children or is the school that wants to protect themselves from future lawsuits?" Well added.

Drop in crime across the Forest
4:00pm Thursday 15th November 2012 in News
COMMUNITIES across the New Forest have seen a dramatic drop in crime – and police are vowing to make "relentless" efforts to reduce it further.
Figures for April to November show a decrease of more than 12 per cent, with 725 fewer offences committed in the district compared to the same period last year.
One of the biggest reductions was in car crime, which dropped by almost 27 per cent.
It follows special initiatives such as Operation Banstead, which led to two people being convicted of conspiracy to commit theft from vehicles.
One of the offenders was jailed for four years and the other was handed a suspended sentence.
The figures have been released by the new head of New Forest police, Chief Inspector Tony Rowlinson.
He said: "The New Forest is one of the safest places to live and work and have some recreation – and my mission is to keep it safe.
"Some of the crime reductions we have seen so far have been remarkable.
"It's all about the smart use of police resources, making sure we're less bureaucratic and more productive. Much of our work is intelligence-led and we get great help from the community."
Police say part of their success stems from close working relationships with other organisations in the area.
New Forest District Council, the National Park Authority, the Forestry Commission, the Environment Agency, the National Famers' Union and Natural England are all helping to combat crime.
Chief Insp Rowlinson added: "My message to anyone thinking of committing crime in the New Forest is that they will be caught and convicted. I will be relentless."
