This top selling herbal dietary supplement is a complementary feed to add to the diet to maintain dogs and cats in optimum health. Each of the eight ingredients has identifiable benefits for specific parts of the body and so in combination this product supports the whole system and all the major organs.

My Shiba Inu Henry, has had Keeper's Mix every day for the 4+ years he's been with me. Coat absolutely radiant, and the healthiest dog I've ever known which I am convinced is due to KM and a raw diet. Thank you Dorwest!
Meg my dachshund/Jack Russell cross had lost most of her fur on the front of her neck leading to her stomach and completely smooth stomach, also almost all the hair had gone in front of her ears on her head. Otherwise looked perfectly healthy and skin condition fine. I tried this before taking to vet to check for any disorders. I can't really believe it but she now has fur on her neck inc a white blaze we forgot she had and fine covering in front of her ears. We are all amazed it's worked so well
My corgi x was transformed within days of taking this supplement. Now full of vitality and looking forward to each meal - seems to love the taste.
I have been using Keepers Mix for several years, for general wellbeing, but never realised how much it improved my Beagles' coats, until I ran out and forgot to re-order for a month, all my dogs started moulting like never before, this stopped within 2 weeks of re-introducing Keepers Mix into their diet, absolutely amazing product!
If you haven't tried Keepers Mix yet, do so. My old dog Zeke, now at least 15 years old has been taking it since we got him from a rescue centre, aged about 1 year. He was not in good condition but Keepers Mix soon turned that around. To this day people still comment on how thick and shiny his coat is and cannot believe how old he is. I wish there was a human version!
I`ve used Keepers mix since 1989 and raised 5 puppies on it over the years who turned into healthy adult dogs, my eldest Lab made 15 and had it in his feed everyday of his life. My all time favorite supplement that I would trust 100% to feed to my precious dogs.

ArcheAge is a free to play massively multiplayer online role play game, being published in the west by Trion, in terms of setting and core combat it's a fairly standard hotkey mmorpg, however what sets it apart is the mix of other features in the game that gives it a bit more of a sandbox feel then just a combat grind to level 50. The games multi-monitor support is very good, resolution options are available and the game is horizontal plus be default, most of the fixed location UI is centred however there is some that is spanned, and a good portion of the HUD can also be moved around to suit your own preferences.
The video itself is part analysis, part walkthough and part waffle, feel free to like or dislike my video and comment are always welcome too.
While this video can be watched on any screen it has been encoded to look best on a multi-monitor system, so if your running such a system, then select 4K quality from the drop down box and watch in fullscreen.
Some screenshots can be found here.

So last night (unoriginal, although I did plan on doing this during the first beta when it would of been original but the SLI bug stopped me) anyway, last night I took a cruise across the Mini USA. From the easterly most point on the map to the point on the west coast that was the furthest away from it. The journey was 88 Miles or about 142 KM, it took me around 44 minutes from pulling away from the east coast to parking on the west, with an average speed of 120 MPH, or 193KPH.
Video below was recorded from a resolution of 5040x1050, and processed down to a resolution of 4032x840. If you have a triple monitor setup yourself, set the quality to 4K (assuming your network can handle it) and fullscreen for the best viewing quality, if your running a single monitor, best to watch at 1080p, ether in fullscreen or on YouTube in Cinema mode. Otherwise I hope you like my selection of OC Remix music, track list is below the video.

In general, I believe there are two types of computer hardware purchases - there are wants, and there are needs. Wants usually take the shape of things that improve performance, make gaming easier, or "expand our horizons". As much as I'd want to believe Eyefinity is a need, it is really a want. On the other hand, needs are things required to solve problems, or just make things work.
Sometimes needs morph into wants. You need a CPU cooler, but you want one that's quiet and has LED lights. You need a mouse, but you want the one with 5600dpi, a lead weight and a dozen buttons. You need a GPU, but you want one that kicks ass.
As we spend more and more of our days in front of computing devices, more things become needs. We look for bigger/wider/multiple monitors for increased productivity. We create proper working environments with large desk spaces, monitor stands and ergonomic chairs, or even standing desks.
And as computing power continues to shrink, and our computing devices become ever more portable, the Club 3D MST Hub will become something you're more likely to need. Whatever your reason, if you do need it, you'll be glad to know that it works - and works well.

The turnaround of the Browns this season has been nothing short of extraordinary. After starting 0-5, the Browns are now riding a three-game winning streak and sit at 5-8 with faint playoff hopes.
Even if the Browns don't make the playoffs — let's face it, the odds are astronomical — there is no denying that the team looks completely different than it did back in September.
Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that the Browns have only gotten healthier as the season has progressed. When CB Joe Haden was serving his four-game suspension and DTs Phil Taylor and Ahtyba Rubin were recovering from injuries, the defense was gashed.
Now? It has been one of the most dominating units over the last three weeks.
Of course, an easy schedule never hurts. During this three-game winning streak, the Browns have defeated the likes of the Charlie Batch-led Pittsburgh Steelers, the plummeting Oakland Raiders, and the hapless Kansas City Chiefs.
There is no denying, though, that the Browns are playing as a complete team right now. That is something that eluded the Browns for much of the season; when the offense was clicking, the defense was porous. When the defense clamped down, the offense was stuck in the mud.
But through it all — the voracious calls for Shurmur's job, the 0-5 start, the inconsistent play, the agonizingly close games that didn't go their way — the Browns have managed to become a respectable team in the NFL.
For that, HC Pat Shurmur deserves a lot of credit. He has made his mistakes, that much is certain, but it would be wrong to overlook his ability to keep the team focused and motivated during its rough stretch.
In fact, the demand for his immediate firing has been replaced by a simmering call for him to be retained. Fans are noticing an improvement and are currently pleading with owner Jimmy Haslam and CEO Joe Banner to keep some consistency in the organization for once.
But Shurmur's run at keeping his job isn't over yet, not by a long shot.
The last three games of the Browns' season may be as tough as the previous three were easy. The team faces the Washington Redskins, Denver Broncos and the Pittsburgh Steelers again, who might need a win in Week 17 just to get into the playoffs.
How different would the overall fan sentiment be if the Browns lose all three of those games? We would be right back to where we started, and the Browns would enter the 2013 season with a new head coach.
If you recall, Eric Mangini was in a similar situation in 2009. The Browns were 1-11 going into Week 14 and rattled off four straight wins, including one against the Steelers. As Mike Holmgren took over as president in 2010, he was essentially obligated to give Mangini another season at the helm, going against his better judgment. Holmgren knew Mangini wouldn't be around in the long-term, but had to at least appear to give him a chance.
Pat Shurmur desperately needs wins against quality opponents in order to stay in Cleveland at least one more season. But does the Browns' new front office actually believe in Shurmur?
Sticking with Shurmur half-heartedly only keeps the Browns from truly progressing into a contender. If Haslam and Banner want to move on, it will have to happen immediately in order to give the new coaching staff as much time as possible with a young, improving roster.
But if the Browns keep winning, the front office is put in a difficult situation. What was once an easy decision (i.e. firing Shurmur) could become a move that shuts the Browns' window of opportunity before it even opens.
Only in Cleveland does winning get this complicated.

21Macaulay Culkin is Not Going to Die Today
Can I say something without freaking most of you guys out? Because I'd really like to say this: Macaulay Culkin is looking hot these days. I mean, completely trying to forget about the fact that he used to be Kevin McAllister, Macaulay Culkin is almost … yummy. There—I said it. Macaulay Culkin is f-cking hot these days, and it definitely helps that he doesn't look like the methed-out homeless man who happened to be Matthew McConaughey's stand-in on the set of 'The Dallas Buyer's Club'.
No, I love the hair, I love the lack of furry facial hair, and I love the fact that you can't even see his red, bloodshot eyes because of the oversize sunglasses. It's all pretty great, and that's coming from the pure, sincere place that I don't often show to the world.
Is he clean? Is he eating? Did he give up the booze? I don't know on any counts, but what I do know is that I'd totally hit that. … At least for now, anyway.

He is a bit scrawny for my taste. This is the best he's looked since Saved! though.
He holds his cig like a bitch.
Ok, I like him he's a good guy, but he does look like the human version of a lab rat. This is exactly what Pinky from Pinky & The Brain would look like if some weird experiment transformed him into a human being! Truth!
We will die if he doesn't quit smoking..just saying.
He will die even if he doesn't quit smoking…just saying.
Heh heh!
i'd hit him too. but the picture that u use is extended lengthwise which makes him (macaulay) looks skinnier than it actually was. but all the way he is still skinny and needs some weight. but is he much better? YES!
I'm just glad he's OK; it seems like his childhood was pretty rough and that his parents were real prizes *cough*. I wish him the best.
hope he get his shit together. Someone put him in a movie! i'll pay to see it. He needs a second change… how many has lohan had?
i freaking love him. and sooooo wanted to jump his bones in "saved". i would love for him to do some more movies. and quit smoking. i think it's the nose. any dude with that kind of nose is automatically hot in my book.
Hell yeah. The beak & that puffy pillow lip…it's the hotness.
oh my god, he looks like my first boyfriend in those pictures! just you know, more on the skinny, unhealthy side..still really handsome. love his lips.
I've had a thing for him since he became famous. He does look extra hot…..
Attractive? I'm sorry but I'm clearly missing something. He looks better than before but he still looks pasty, tired and weak. Smoking is also vile and, even if it wasn't for all those things, aesthetically his features just don't appeal.
He now looks like a polished turd as opposed to just a turd.
it is mean! but i agree that he needs some more weight too. but i like his face so unique. and really don't understand girls are crazy for those fucking stupid and -fake pale with powder- vampires and critiseze macaulay because of his paleness. he was pale when he was a kid also. what people expected really? white as a cotton, small as a button when a kid, but husky brunette adult? genetic is not like this unfortunatelly
I'd like to request a post on his equally-puffy-lipped brothers. He's got a couple that blossomed into sexy hunks of man meat, lemmee tell ya…
Macaulay Eat a few chipotle burritos
I've always thought hes gorgeous. Especially in Party Monster.
Hey macaulay cukin don't fuck can't get for die no true just he have goood great good way please changer good child wonderful in home alone and richie rich whatever lovely just it I want you learn time more thing good changer for head but I don't like said u need stop smoke what fuck hell blood what for there not good to u understand now huh please you was who there try back normal in win pleaqse my dear macaulay culkin
He is still my number one fan,no matter what happens to him,I will always love him….

Living a Balanced Life – Is It Possible?
27 Apr
How many times I have sat down, feeling like I am juggling just too many hats, and not doing any one of those hats justice. "BALANCE" is a word that reels over and over in my mind, and it seems to be at the top of my prayer list a lot here lately. I feel as though I am on a journey to discover "BALANCE" in my life; and what I have found on my journey is that I am not travelling this road alone. It seems as though the majority of women I speak with are struggling in this same area.
I believe that we all have experienced the challenge to maintain "BALANCE" in our life. If "IMBALANCE" isn't your address right now, it either has been at one time OR it will be in the future. There are so many "things" vying for our time and attention – spouse, children and their numerous activities, family, church, work … the list goes on and on. One thing I have noticed is that when I am out of "BALANCE," the odds of burn out and stress are great, and my relationships become strained.
Here are a couple of guidelines I have implemented to help bring "BALANCE" back into my life. First, I put together a list of things that I need to accomplish and then I prioritize that list. Because we are being pulled in so many directions, it's easy to get off track if we don't have order and structure in our daily routine. When I take responsibility for each new day the Lord allows me to live, and order my days instead of my days ordering me, "BALANCE" is then an enjoyed goal.
Prioritizing allows me to accomplish the important and necessary things. The flip side of that, not prioritizing, leaves me wide open to confusion, frustration and stress as I don't complete the things that need to get done and I'm left wondering all over the road.
One other tip the Lord shared with me as I've been praying for "BALANCE" and obtaining "BALANCE" is the importance of having "ME" time where I do things that I enjoy doing. This sounds simple, but trust me, it is so difficult because we have a tendency to allow self to come up last on the list of things needing attention. Some will even try to make you think you are being selfish when you schedule such times, but I tell you the truth … there is nothing selfish about "ME" time! These designated times are necessary so you can relax and recover from the grind of your routine. Not having down time will leave you at your wits end, and you will become difficult to get along with. That's just a given fact that I can absolutely attest to.
So ladies, let's take back the reins of our lives and live a life of BALANCE in every area. I would love for you to share any wisdom and truths that you use to promote and establish BALANCE in your life!
Keepin' It Balanced,

The South Carolina Highway Patrol is looking for a car and driver who hit and killed a pedestrian Saturday night in Lexington County.
Troopers say at about 6 p.m., Saturday, 48-year-old Aaron McGlon of Lexington was attempting to cross Augusta Highway at Oak Drive when a vehicle going north in the southbound lane hit him. The driver did not stop.
"I'm just devastated," said McGlon's mother, Barbara White.
White never thought she'd feel this much pain, shortly after a happy holiday.
"Right now I'm planning a funeral for my son, my first born," said White. "You don't expect to bury your children, you just don't do that."
Troopers say McGlon had just left a convenience store near the Barnyard Flea Market when he was hit crossing the street to go home
White says another son called her with the bad news.
"I said is he alright? He said no mommy, he's dead," said White. "I don't remember anything else after that. I just started screaming."
The news was shocking to White because she had just seen spent Thanksgiving with her son.
"He said mommy I love you, I said I love you too," White added. "That was the last time I saw him."
"It's very sad to know someone can strike a pedestrian in the roadway and not get out to assist," said LCpl.. Brent Kelly with the Highway Patrol.
Coroner Harry Harman said McGlon died at the scene.
Troopers are looking for a light-colored Cadillac, possibly early to mid-90's model, with front end damage and slim tail lights. It was last seen heading toward West Columbia.
"It's going to have front end damage possible windshield busted too," said Kelly. "I'm told the victim rolled up onto the hood of the vehicle."
"If you know anything about this call us," said Kelly. "This is someone's family member left laying there in the road."
"Have a heart turn yourself in," said White. "I don't know what led up to the circumstance of you hitting my son, but please turn yourself in. How can you live with this?"

Meet Blue (and an already adopted Misty). I watched these two dogs get surrendered to the County on Saturday. Scenario: two guys pull up in a truck. Not knowing the process, they let the dogs out of their truck in the parking lot immediately. When told that the dogs come in through another area, they shoved the 9 year old Husky back into the back end of the truck. Then, void of compassion, they tossed the little one in too! If they were sobbing or concerned I would not be posting this interpretation but they appeared relieved to discard their pets after nine years of togetherness. Somehow and some way, these sweet dogs had become less-valued. And now, because tiny Misty is a highly desirable lap dog and was adopted immediately, the siblings will never see each other again - and big Blue still waits. Might you have room in your home and your heart for a big, sweet and gentle dog in his "Golden Years." Please don't delay … let's get Blue home for the holidays.
Note: Please keep in mind that all adoptable pets need time to decompress once they enter a home. For some it will happen quickly and for others it might take a few weeks. You'll want to be understanding of what they have been through and their level of insecurity. We ask that you treat all of them as if they were an 8 week old puppy. Assume they know nothing and begin at step one. You'll soon know what they are capable of and what behaviors you will need to work on with your new family member. It's called commitment! And, that's what these pets want more than anything!

(WMC-TV) – Only on 5, the wife of a Ridgeway High School basketball player
reveals a web of lies and deceit that led to major disappointment when the
entire team was disqualified from a state tournament.
The tattoo on McKinzey Sewell's right shoulder includes his
birthday, May 4th, 1994. A copy of his birth certificate also says he's 18 years old.
"I wanted to go to get my high school diploma," Sewell said.
"At first I wasn't even thinking about basketball."
McKinzey Sewell played basketball for Ridgeway High School this
year until the school discovered his forged transcript and the Roadrunners were
disqualified from the state tournament, just one week after assistant coach
Jimmy McClain was found murdered in his home.
"It started out as one little situation and now supposedly
I'm dating younger girls, I'm 23 years old, and I killed my coach," Sewell
said. "I mourned his loss just like everyone else."
Investigators say the murder is not related to the scandal.
Sewell's aunt, McKini Spain, said Sewell
got his GED at 16 in Louisiana. He moved here to live with her but soon moved
in with a teammate's mother who Spain said got him
into Ridgeway.
"Was I going to go to Ridgeway High School and say what are
y'all doing letting this young man in y'all school?" asked McKini Spain. "No
sir, I wasn't. I was very happy and excited for this young man. He was given a
second opportunity."
"I knew nothing about the paperwork. She told me,"
McKinzey said.
Sewell married his teammate's mom even though she's 16 years older
than he is.
"I did, and I still do," Sewell's wife Chaundrea answered
when asked if she loved him. "The age doesn't matter. Age only determines
how many years you're here. It doesn't determine your intelligence."
She asked we not show her face or use her last name, and to call
her either Chaundrea or Nicole, names she said she had
legally changed for safety in the past.
"I didn't forge nothing. I didn't forge nothing," she said.
Chaundrea said Sewell and his family supplied her the documents which she turned
over to the coach as-is.
Chaundrea said she does not think anyone at Ridgeway forged any of
the documents.
"Nobody knew," she explained. "So the person that needs to own up
to this and take responsibility for their actions is the person who did it."
And that is McKinzey, Chaundrea said.
"Nobody should suffer for another person's mistake. Those
boys are suffering like they are. That's not fair," she added.
Something Sewell said he feels
at least partially responsible for.
"I apologize to my teammates," Sewell said. "This is
our year to win state and I'm sorry I messed that up for them."

Piedmont Faculty Approves Experiential Learning Program
At a recent assembly, the Piedmont College faculty approved a new co-curricular program that will record students' experiential learning.
Starting in fall 2013, under the new "Compass Program," students at the Demorest and Athens campuses during their four years of undergraduate studies will take part in a variety of learning experiences outside the classroom. The six points of the Compass include creativity and innovation, social ethics, leadership, cultural awareness, vocation, and service-learning.
Piedmont Chaplain Ashley Cleere said the experiences will encompass a wide assortment of projects, including science experiments, athletic pursuits, internships, travel, volunteerism, entrepreneurial activity, and artistic expression.
"Many of our students are already involved in projects suited for the Compass Program," Cleere said. "The creation of this program formalizes the process so that work outside the classroom garners recognition." Cleere said students' achievements through the Compass Program will be included in their official college transcripts, making it easier for future graduate programs or employers to judge the value of their co-curricular efforts.
Each of the Compass endeavors will be approved by a faculty or staff sponsor who will oversee the work, Cleere said. At the end of each project, students will compose a paper describing what they learned from the experience.
"The role of the Compass Program is to acquaint students with individuals and contexts they may not otherwise encounter, and to develop an avenue for them to set goals, as well as reflect on insights gained and challenges faced," Cleere said. The program is being implemented gradually, with the upcoming fall freshmen being the first involved, she said.

Huntsville leaders want to hear from you about the future of the city. They're giving you the chance to help the city shape its master plan.
In order for this master plan to work, Huntsville residents need to participate and give their opinions. The purpose is to better understand what the community needs for the future.
At Tuesday's kick-off event, organizers presented their findings about what's needed in the community. This was followed by break-out sessions with residents.
Some of the topics the master plan will address over the coming months include plans for neighborhood redevelopment, parks and greenways, transportation and overall quality of life.
"It shows that people in the city are interested in their community," said Huntsville councilman Bill Kling. "We're talking about traffic flow patterns, greenways, bicycle paths, retail for the future, new restaurants. I think we're going to have a great future."
You can expect monthly opportunities to meet and join the conversation. They'll also bring in some experts. The 18-month project is called 'The Big Picture,' and their website contains more information about future meetings.

The North Carolina Senate has given its initial approval to the latest tax overhaul pushed by Republicans in the chamber. The Senate voted 32-15 Tuesday for the package that would cut personal income tax rates, phase out the corporate income tax and alter what's subject to the sales tax. The measure was rolled out after weeks of negotiations between the House and Senate haven't yielded a compromise. Senate leader Phil Berger says the new proposal takes the House position in several matters. He says the plan would improve the economy and help create jobs. Democrats contend it would hurt working people while benefiting the wealthy. A final Senate vote should occur Wednesday. The package then will go to the House, which isn't taking up legislation until next week.

While Gostkowski's game improved in his second NFL season—his field goal
accuracy climbed from 77 to 87 percent—it was the coattails of a record-setting
offense that propelled him into the upper echelon of fantasy kickers. Imagine
how gaudy his numbers would have been had the Pats not converted 70 percent
of their red zone opportunities into touchdowns, leaving Gostkowski counting
by ones instead of threes. Then again, an NFL-record 74 PATs more than makes
up for the fact that 24 NFL kickers made more field goals. It's not as if the
Patriots' offense will take a giant step backwards in 2008, and even if it does
that just means fewer singles—and more treys—for Gostkowski. If you can't wait
until the last round to take your kicker, Gosty is the guy in your crosshairs.
Last summer Folk was a little-known rookie from Arizona hoping to push Martin
Gramatica for the Dallas gig. Turns out Tiny Dancer's hamstring injury, which
landed him on injured reserve and handed the job to Folk, was the best thing
that could have happened to the Cowboys. Folk had the distinct pleasure of
tacking on PATs for the NFC's most prolific offense, and when they left him with
field goal attempts he converted them at an impressive 83 percent clip. With
Romo & Co. back for more and augmented by rookie Felix Jones, turning your
fantasy kicking chores over to Nick should give you squad's Folk tale a happy
Nate's first kick of 2007 was blocked, and he didn't make his second field
goal until Week Four. After that, though, he was money—including a finishing
fantasy playoffs kick (pardon the pun) in which he averaged almost 11 points
per game weeks 14 through 17. All the elements remain in place for Kaeding
to rank amongst the elite fantasy kickers again this season: a top-notch
offense with just enough of an issue in the red zone (the Bolts converted a
shade under 56 percent of their red zone possessions into touchdowns) to
provide Nate with copious ones and threes; accuracy that's allowed him to
convert nearly 90 percent of his field goal attempts the past three seasons;
and a big leg that's knocked through 78 percent of his plus-40 tries since
entering the league. There's absolutely nothing here preventing Kaeding from
being among the first kickers off the fantasy draft board.
The greatest clutch kicker of our generation proved to be entirely mortal in
2007. He memorably shanked a potential game-winning chippy against the
Chargers and saw his field goal accuracy rate dip below 80 percent for the
first time since 2003. My Cousin Vinny didn't even make a kick from beyond
39 yards during the entire regular season; fortunately for Adam only one
team took more drives into the red zone than Indy, so he was bequeathed
with plenty of opportunities. As the Colts' offense transitions from point-
producing juggernaut to a more efficient and economical machine
comfortable with 27 points instead of 35, Vinatieri won't need to stretch his
leg to maintain residence amongst the top tier of fantasy kickers. That's a
downer in distance leagues, and Vinny is certainly not worth reaching early
for, but his steady dose of six-, seven-, and eight-point games won't hurt
Any questions about the Packs' decision to turn kicking chores over to a rookie
were answered immediately as Crosby opened his career with a 53-yarder and a
42-yard game winner in his first NFL game. That was just as appetizer, as the
Colorado rookie capped his first season by leading the league in scoring.
Problem is, the vast majority of Green Bay's scoring drives were directed by the
now-retired Brett Favre; the move to Aaron Rodgers likely precipitates a decline
in scoring attempts of both the one- and three-point variety. And then, of
course, there is the albatross around Crosby's neck: not since John Smith went
back-to-back for the Patriots in 1981-82 has a scoring leader repeated.
The quad injury Scobee suffered in Week One cost him half the season, but
Jacksonville's offense was humming along when he returned and he crammed 26
PATs into the final seven games. Unfortunately he kicked multiple field goals in
just two of those seven games and didn't even try a trey over the final fortnight
—leaving you in quite a pickle if Scobee was kicking for your squad in the
fantasy title game. A David Garrard-led offense too efficient? Who knew? Josh's
health is fine, his accuracy continues to improve, and the Jags added receivers in
the offense in hopes of making their offense even more potent. It all points to
Scobee bouncing back to post solid numbers and provide a reliable option for
your fantasy squad.
While the Bengals' offense regressed a bit in 2007, it was actually to the
benefit of Graham. The most telling stat: only three teams had more red zone
possessions than Cincy, and only three teams converted those trips into
points more regularly than the Bengals' 91 percent efficiency rate… but the
Bengals' touchdown percentage of 48.2 ranked 23rd in the league. That
meant career highs for Graham in field goal tries and field goals made, and
when you factor in his career-high 91 percent accuracy rate it wasn't tough
to offset a second straight decline in extra point attempts. There's still
enough offensive firepower in Cincy to keep Graham's numbers among the
elite, but six of the Bengals' final seven games will be played outside in Ohio
and Pennsylvania, so weather could be a concern.
Surprised to learn that Dawson finished among the NFL's top 10 scorers last
year, ahead of the likes of Adam Vinatieri and Nate Kaeding? The key, as you
might imagine, was a resurgent Browns offense that yielded 43 extra point
attempts—roughly 42 percent more than Philly Dawg has averaged during his
tenure in Cleveland. If you're convinced the Browns have turned the corner with
Derek Anderson at the helm, then Dawson will be more valuable to you than
he's ranked here. A downtick in PATs and a regression closer to Phil's career 83
percent accuracy rate may take Dawson out of the top 10 scorers, though he'd
still find himself on the fringe of fantasy relevant kickers.
Which Akers is to be believed—the fantasy stud who averaged better than 120
points per year from 2001 through 2004, or the injury-prone hack who hasn't
topped 108 points in a season since? In addition to his own quad and hamstring
issues, Akers' numbers have been impacted by Donovan McNabb's maladies and
the subsequent suffering of the Philly offense. Was Akers' horrendous two-of-
10 performance from 40 yards and out last season due to injuries or has he
jumped the shark? Will a healthy McNabb lead to more multiple field goal games
(20 NFL kickers had more than David's six MFGGs) or just spike his PAT totals?
Akers is no longer a fantasy kicker to be reached for, but you could certainly do
worse than having him fall into your lap in the final round.
Rackers booted almost as many PATs last season as the previous two years
combined; on the flip side, his 21 field goals were a 25 percent drop from
2006 and slightly more than half of his gaudy 2005 total. You don't have to
be smarter than a fifth grader to figure out that counting by ones does not
add up as quickly as counting by threes, which is why Rackers has fallen from
the first kicker off most draft boards to a borderline fantasy starter. The
Cardinals' offense kept its most important parts intact, so Rackers will once
again be seeing more PAT opportunities than field goal tries. With an
accuracy rate that's been under 76 percent four of the past five years (and
six of Neil's eight pro seasons), it's tough to bank on a significant
bounceback for Rackers. Sure, you may miss the occasional seven-field goal
game, but… when is he going to make it back to Mexico?
About the only excitement involved in spending a fantasy pick on Nugent is the
opportunity to scream "Wango Tango!" or "Cat Scratch Fever!" or another
selection from the Motor City Madman's collection. The Jets' offense is nothing
to get worked up over, Nugent doesn't bring a remarkably big leg to the table,
and his selection will be largely met with yawns and a request to pass the beer
nuts. But your league likely requires you to stock at least one former soccer
player on your roster, and you could do worse than Nugent.
08-26-08 Update: More trickle-down from the arrival of Brett Favre in the Big Apple. If there's
going to be more offense, it only makes sense that there will be more
opportunities for Nugent—of both the one- and three-point variety. Hey, last
year Favre's kicker led the NFL in scoring; why not take a flier on the Nuge at
the end of your draft or auction?
Seventeen years in the league and Kasay is still alive and kicking. Kicking from
way downtown, too, with 26 attempts from 50 yards and out since 2003. He's
even made more than half of those tries, barely. What has really killed his
numbers of late is Jake Delhomme's penchant for injury and the Panthers'
subsequent inability to move the football into scoring position. A healthy
Delhomme, augmented by the addition of Jonathan Stewart, could bump Kasay
back into the 120-point range he used to inhabit. If you're sensing a Carolina
bounceback, adding Kasey as your endgame kicker could pay solid dividends.
It only took six years for Brown's move from Pittsburgh to Houston to make
sense, as his 115 points last year were his best since leaving the Steel City.
Truth be told, the Texans' offense was almost too good last year; they ranked
fourth in touchdown percentage inside the red zone, leaving Brown to count by
ones instead of threes. Houston's offense once again brims with potential, so if
you're big on Matt Schaub and Andre Johnson you'll likely find Kris a palatable
fantasy kicking option.
Thanks in no small part to his mastery of the winds at Heinz Field—where he
missed a third of his field goal attempts over the previous two seasons but
converted 13 of 14 tries last year—Reed posted a career-best 92 percent
accuracy rate in 2007. The Steelers added some moving parts to their offense
this season, though their line is certainly a question mark in the wake of Alan
Faneca's departure. There should be plenty of points to be had in Pittsburgh,
with an offense that stumbles just enough in the red zone to provide the 25-
plus field goal attempts and 40-plus PATs Reed has had each of the past four
seasons. He's not a sexy fantasy option, but there's nothing wrong with a
steady diet of Chuck Woolerys (two and two) from your kicker.
What happens when you combine a 10-percentage point jump in accuracy
with the league's least efficient touchdown-producing team in the red zone?
You get an NFL-record eight field goals in one game, which is what Bironas
produced in Week Seven. You also get a league-leading 11 multiple-field
goal games and 133 points, good for fourth in the NFL. It's not as if the
Titans have addressed their offensive woes this offseason, which very likely
leaves Bironas in the same boat as last year: finishing the majority of
Tennessee scoring drives from beyond extra-point range. If the Titans didn't
rank in the bottom third of the league in points or offensive efficiency that
would be a bigger cause for celebration; as it stands, Bironas is the kind of
kicker you pick up in the last round of your draft when the other guys you
like are already off the board.
(-Risk) (+Upside) The gig held by Josh Brown for the past five seasons has produced an average
of 114 points, and the decline/departure of former touchdown machine
Shaun Alexander likely translates into fewer PATs—and more field goal
attempts—for the Seahawks' kicker. Coutu's competition is Olindo Mare, who
has missed a quarter of his field goal tries since 2002 and hit on an abysmal
59 percent last year. NFL teams generally don't waste draft picks, making
Coutu the favorite as Brown's successor. Accurate and solid in the clutch at
Georgia, Coutu battled hamstring problems that kept him from kicking off
much during his final two collegiate seasons. If the Seahawks can afford to
carry a kickoff specialist, Mare ranked third in the NFL in touchback
percentage. That would leave Coutu to focus on putting points on the board,
which is all that concerns fantasy folks. It's worth noting that most of Brown's
misses in 2007 could be attributed to poor snaps, which explains why the
Seahawks followed up their selection of Coutu by taking a long-snapping
specialist in the next round.
08-26-08 Update: The more we see of the Seattle offense this preseason, the less inclined we are
to believe they'll put points on the board at a rate similar to what they afforded
Josh Brown. Also, with Coutu failing to distance himself from Olindo Mare
there's an element of risk in drafting him prior to final cutdowns.
Gramatica was able to hold off the rookie Mehlhaff to win the Saints kicking job.
Suisham's first full season as a regular NFL kicker was anything but a
disappointment. The Redskins weren't afraid to use him from 40 yards and out—
only four kickers had more attempts from that range; in fact, they weren't afraid
to use him period, as only four kickers tried more field goals in 2007. The
offense added a couple of big receivers and a helmsman in new coach Jim Zorn,
so there's nothing to suggest Suisham's numbers will backslide in 2008. Before
you get too giddy, however, note that his numbers are firmly on the fringe of
fantasy relevance so he's at best a late-round addition or weekly matchup play.
You'd think an experienced kicker on a team with a great defense and a shaky
offense could do more, especially given the climate-controlled conditions in
which he spends half his season. But the difference between having Brett Favre
and Tarvaris Jackson move your offense into scoring position is the difference
between the 120 points per year he averaged as a Packer and the 95 he's
averaged in two seasons in purple. On the bright side, Longwell's 39 PATs were
a big step up and the Vikings' offense appears headed in the right direction. The
selling point in making Ryan your endgame kicker might be Minnesota's
weather-friendly post-bye schedule: five dome games and southbound trips to
Tampa Bay, Jacksonville, and Arizona.
Blame it on the rain. Or perhaps that Brown's battery-powered pants won't be
necessary within the friendly confines of the Edward Jones Dome. Or just maybe
the $14.2 million the Rams waved in front of Brown to woo him from soggy
Seattle. Whatever the reason, one of fantasy's more reliable kickers (at least 109
points in each of his five pro seasons) takes a step down in offensive firepower
this year with his move to St. Louis. No longer the Greatest Show on Turf, the
Rams have ranked an average of almost six spots lower than the Seahawks in
points scored—and were 28th in scoring last season. So while the roof may be
nice, it won't be enough to shelter Brown from a precipitous drop in scoring;
plan accordingly.
Three years ago Gould was working for a construction company in
Pennsylvania. This past May the Bears made him the highest-paid kicker in
NFL history. Who says Jerry Angelo is cheap? Trouble is, Chicago's offense fell
off dramatically from a 2006 campaign that allowed Gould to score 143
points and punch his ticket to the Pro Bowl. Unless you're of the opinion that
Rex Grossman and/or Kyle Orton will lead an offensive resurgence in the
Windy City, Gould is likely destined for a season similar to last. The good
news is, that means a bunch of field goal attempts; only two kickers tried
more treys last season than Robbie. The bad news is, Chicago's offense not
only won't provide PAT opportunities, there's every reason to believe they
may even struggle to get Gould close enough for threes. He's a decent
endgame fantasy kicking option, but odds are you'll find another booter you
like better when your final pick rolls around.
No analysis available.
You know how the departure of Mike Martz will impact Detroit's passing game,
but you may be surprised to learn it will impact Hanson as well. Consider that
Hanson has had 30 or more PATs just thrice in the past decade—and two of
those came with Martz directing the offense. Jason also tried 30 or more field
goals in two of the past six seasons—and again, those were Martz years. With
Detroit revamping its offense, expect points to be down all around. Hanson's
only saving grace is that even after 16 years in the league he's still money from
way downtown, having knocked through 12 of his last 18 tries from 50 yards
and out. Distance leaguers could tab Hanson at the end of their draft, but even
with the bonus he may not do enough to warrant the selection.
Elam has reached triple digits in each of his 15 NFL seasons, but his decision to
take the seven figures the Falcons offered him this offseason may bring that
streak to an end. It won't be the Mile High air Elam misses so much as a
competent offense. Not only have the Falcons failed to finish higher than 14th in
scoring in any of the past five seasons, they've ranked in the bottom third of the
league six of the previous nine years. Elam still has some leg for an old guy—
he'll be 41 at the end of the four-year, $9 million contract he signed with
Atlanta—but there are far too many questions associated with the Falcons
offense to bank on Jason maintaining the marks he posted in Denver.
Stove Top remains a reliable, if somewhat boring, fantasy option who toils for an
offense few expect to set the world on fire. It's unlikely anyone will be fighting
over the opportunity to call his name at the end of your draft, given that the
Ravens will be helmed by a) a rookie, b) a second-year sixth-round selection,
or c) Kyle Boller. Even with all of Baltimore's offensive woes Stover has cobbled
together five straight 100-point seasons, but his defense doesn't shorten the
field like it used to and there are far too many questions on the other side of the
ball for most fantasy owners' comfort levels. You may find yourself turning to
Stover when your kicker is on a bye, but as an every-week starter it won't be
difficult to find more upside somewhere else.
Pinning your fantasy kicking fortunes to a cold-weather team helmed by Trent
Edwards isn't exactly the recipe for a championship. Lindell is a solid kicker,
consistently accurate, but the Bills' offense is giving him a fraction of the
opportunities presented to, say, Scott Norwood. Even if you like what Buffalo has
going, keep this in mind: after playing in Miami the final Sunday of October, the
Bills play six games in the potential snows of New York and make trips to
Foxboro, Kansas City, and Denver. Oh the weather outside is frightful…
The Jason Elam era has ended in Denver; so has the Todd Sauerbrun era. Prater,
who pulled double duty in college as a top kicker and punter, may wind up
filling both roles in Denver. For the moment he's the leading candidate to fill
Elam's tiny shoes, though he'll have to fend off a training camp charge from
undrafted rookie free agent Garrett Hartley. Kicking in Denver yielded 15
consecutive 100-point seasons for Elam, an average of 119 points per
campaign, and the bulk of the elements remain in place for a competent
Broncos offense. If Prater does in fact snag the gig, he'd be an intriguing
endgame fantasy kicking option.
After bouncing from the Giants to the Colts to the Dolphins, Bryant has carved
out a home in Tampa. Thankfully, the Bucs don't ask him to do much more than
hit chippies, which works on multiple levels: it plays to the strengths of a kicker
who has made just two of seven career tries from 50 yards and out, and it plays
to the weakness of an offense that finished 26th in the league in red zone
touchdown efficiency. Last year's 128-point outburst feels like a spike for
Bryant, coming on the heels of 74- and 94-point efforts; plus, it's not as if the
Bucs' offense did much if anything to suggest an improved output in 2008.
Bryant's just another kicking option at the end of your draft, and at least you
know he'll hit the shorties.
Here's all you need to know: Nedney has made all 70 of his extra point attempts
since coming to San Francisco in 2005; Stephen Gostkowski made 74 PATs last
year alone. Joe can still hit the occasional 50-yarder, which is necessary because
no team ventured into the red zone less frequently last season than the Niners.
Nedney also posted fewer multiple field goal games than any NFL kicker who
held his job for all 16 games, and there is little reason to think Mike Martz can
squeeze significantly more point production out of the 49ers offense this
season. As such, when it comes to fantasy kicking options Nedney is definitely a
below-average Joe.
Carpenter flew under the radar this preseason, which is exactly how Bill Parcells likes his kickers—and why he and not the more vocal Jay Feely will be handling Miami's kicking chores this season. There's little fantasy upside to the two-time All-American from Montana, who will go undrafted in any league that doesn't include an immediate relative.
Signs of life in the Oakland offense have been reported this offseason—positive
news for Janikowski, who has averaged a paltry 26 PATs per season over the
past five years. Magnifying the problem is Sebastian's anemic 70 percent
accuracy rate since 2005. Even his big leg has failed him of late; the Raiders
have provided 21 opportunities from 50 yards and out the past three seasons—
11 last year alone—but Sea Bass has only connected on nine of them. If you feel
the urge to call out Janikowski's name at your drauction, best check your drink
for a roofie first; passing out would most certainly be the more advisable
The honor of tacking on points for the Kansas City offense—what few points they'll have, anyway—appears to have fallen to Novak, who has bounced through the Washington and Arizona organizations since leaving the University of Maryland. The good news is, he hasn't had to dramatically change his wardrobe given that each of his employers' primary color is red. The bad news is, he's quickly running out of NFL teams who wear that hue.

The Detroit Lions lost their undefeated streak last week at home against the San Francisco 49ers. Matt Stafford and his bunch still look like a pretty good team, but the schedule does them no favors this week with the Atlanta Falcons coming to town for a visit. A team favored to have a real shot at the NFC title, Atlanta has underwhelmed. They got a convincing win over the Panthers last week, and need to continue that trend this week before the media starts writing their obituary.
The Lions were favored by 4 1/2 points in the opening line, but the gap has since closed to 3 1/2 points. Running back Jahvid Best is out this week. Maurice Morris will replace Best against a solid Falcons' run defense. Atlanta is waiting on rookie wide receiver Julio Jones to return to action, and his status for the week is up in the air still.

LEWISTOWN, Ill. -- We continue to make our way to the hottest tourist spots this summer in our "Illinois River Road Report".
This week, News 25's Beau Ebenezer makes his next stop at the jewel of the Illinois River.
This week's road trip is full of surprises as we head south to the city of Lewistown.
The newly restored floodplain known as the Nature Conservancy's Emiquon Preserve is a true gem for Illinois River Road travelers.
Within just minutes of pulling into the site, we came across a special treat.
"We ended up finding a painted turtle that was laying eggs in the dirt," said Emiquon visitor, Jennifer McDaniel. "We watched her dig her hole and she laid 12 eggs. We counted each one. Now she has buried the eggs. It's the coolest thing I've seen in about three weeks."
This place isn't just friendly to its wildlife.
Visitors can boat and fish on the site's two lakes with a permit.
For bird-watchers, more than 250 species of birds make Emiquon the ultimate vacation spot.
"It's great for anybody who likes nature and wants a place to look at beautiful things and listen," said bird watcher, Judy Groskind. "It is a wonderful place to listen. There are so many sounds out here."
You can't leave town before stopping by a major on-site archaeological museum.
Dickson Mounds Museum takes you through the Native American history in the Illinois River Valley.
They have excavated more than 20-million artifacts from the surrounding land.
The best part is that their research continues today.
"When they come here to Dickson Mounds Museum, they basically step into the past," said museum curator, Alan Harn. "What they are going to learn is the previous 10-thousand years or so of man's life on this place."
Last but not least, we continue south to the city of Havana.
Here you can get a scenic look of their Riverfront Park.
But what really makes Havana stand-out is a 4,000 acre wildlife refuge.
The Chautauqua Wildlife Refuge is just one of two national wildlife refuges on the Illinois River Road.
It is a sanctuary for song birds in the summer, migrating waterfowl in the spring and fall, and eagles in the winter.
Also, make sure you don't miss some of the wildlife on the refuge's Nature Trail that overlooks the lake.
So next time you're looking for a place to go, just take a ride with us on the Illinois River Road.

It's puppy love...or giraffe love depending on how you look at it, and Tom Walling says feels like a watchful dad.
"They've actually been kissing and smooching it up," said Walling. "So, they're actually getting a long really ,really well."
You could say Elliot and his new girl giraffe are in the dating stages. The two were introduced over the weekend after her arrival on Thursday. 'Dad' is keeping a close eye.
"We will supervise them for the next couple days just to make sure," said Walling. "And then pretty soon shell be out here with him all day long."
"I love it," said Madison Tony. "They are so cute. I've already asked my mom about ten times for a baby giraffe."
Toney and her mother hold season passes to the zoo and Elliot is always her favorite stop.
"I just got out of school and we saw everyone here and we wanted to come by and see the baby girl," said Toney.
Giraffe's are known to have heavy hearts weighing over 20 pounds and have the highest blood pressure of all land mammals. No doubt Elliot's heart skipped a beat at the sight of his new gal.
"You know getting these two youngsters in here is really great," said Walling. "We are really thankful; thankful to the public because they are here because of public donations.
"All the money that has come from them hasn't come from our operating capital, but from the public."
But before hearing wedding bells Dad says they're just enjoying 'girrafing' each other crazy.
"This is very cool and we are very ,very excited that we got Elliot here and now that we've got the little girl with him," said Walling. "It's just the culmination of a dream."

Some testimonial comments from past guests:
Bob and Mary Bond, Columbus, OH-
What a great way for our family to begin the new year! We loved our time at the Pinebrook Cabin; the cabin is wonderful!
We hiked up the road and were amazed by the views. The drive to Yosemite was worth the trip! I think our kids' favorite place was the CA State Mining and Mineral Museum. I loved watching the deer, and Wild Turkey wander through the grounds and drank my morning coffee, Amazing!
Lehrke Family-Minneapolis, MN-
Thank You for a pleasant stay. We really enjoyed the turkeys and deer in the mornings. During our stay we visited Yosmite several times. We especially enjoyed Mariposa Valley, and huge sequoias. We also found the hike to Vernal Falls challenging and rewarding. I truly believe we could stay busy all summer here!
Iris Cotter, Washington DC-
Our stay was wonderful! Beautiful Cabin and wonderful accomodations! The Steller Jays, turkeys, deer, and other fun wildlife were great!
Mel and Lisa Semper, Berkeley, Ca-
We are truly grateful that you allowed us to enjoy the beauty and serenity of this place. For a couple of city folk, no better place could we have spent the past 25 days here. We saw the fascinating history of the area, and of course, once again experienced the majesty of Yosemite National Park! The splendor of Mariposa and the surrounding towns coupled with the simplicity of life, are certainly loves for a return visit! Thank You for your constant attention to our comfort and for all the information!
Tim and Laurie Link, Los Angeles, Ca-
Yet another great weekend visit to the cabin! I can't think of a better way to spend Thanksgiving than the the Pinebrook Cabin! We brought the ATV-Quads this time and the guys had a great time finding new trails. We spent a day in Yosemite which is always a treat, but of course the best part is always just being at the cabin, relaxing and enjoying the deer and the Bluejays. The view is always nice. We had 3 generations here this weekend, and there was something for everyone.
The Wongs, Fremont, Ca-
We had a great time! Your cabin has a wonderful layout. Love the creek in front, and meadow in the back. We spotted deer, wild turkey, Stellar Jays, Woodpeckers,and squirrels. We went to Yosemite twice on YARTS bus which was very convenient!
Mariposa Museum was fantastic. The kids rode their bikes happily in the neighborhood. Hope to come back soon!
The Beveridge's, Martinez, Ca-
Thanks for the use of your cabin. We enjoyed our stay very much! Everything we needed was right here. We also hiked up the hill to check-out the old Oak tree and the Indian Grinding holes. Very Cool! We spent a day in Yosemite and a day in Mariposa. The Pizza Factory there makes a "Mean" Pizza! Hope to come up again!
The Chen's, Salt Lake City, Utah-Thank you so much for allowing us to have the experience to stay in your cabin! It is very cozy and comfortable. I really love the furnishings, you guys know interior design! I hope that more people will get the chance to experience of staying in the cabin as cute and homey as yours. We will refer our friends and family from Utah about your place!
Nelson and family, Oakley, Ca -This place was great! The convenience was a big plus in making our mini vacation truly relaxing. As we rode our ATV's, the trails were absolutely awesome! Our quad riding time was a true highlight to our stay. It was wonderful to have trails for all abilities. The kids had a blast on the quick/easy trails, and the parents enjoyed the challenges like the ride to the Merced River, and Jerseydale, WOW! We look forward to coming back!
The Hahns, Hartford, Wisconsin-We really enjoyed our stay in your cabin! We took daily walks and hikes around the area. We also enjoyed viewing the old Oak Tree, and ancient grinding holes in the surface granite that the American Indians created up the hill behind the house. Thank You!
Rongjie, Los Angeles, Ca-Thanks so much for giving us the chance to stay in your cabin! This is such a beautiful cabin, nice living room, nice environment outside. We even had the chance to see deer just outside the cabin. All of us had a wonderful time staying at the cabin and visiting Yosemite National Park. We believe that this was an unforgetable time in our life! Thanks So Much Again!
Richard-Oakland, Ca & Josh-London, England- I have no shame in saying that I've now stayed in this cabin 5 times over the past few summers! Nuff sed. From the very first time my father and I came to stay it has felt like a second home. We always arrive to find the cabin in very clean and well-maintained condition, and it is kitted out with spacious and beautifully furnished rooms able to comfortably accommodate groups large and small. The surrounding woods and fields were a beautiful setting to relax in (marked by occasional visits from local deer and wild turkeys!), especially in the evenings after returning from our wanderings in Yosemite National Park and other fascinating places in the area. The owners are also lovely and a special thanks to them for their thorough help in trying to find my camera after the last time we stayed. My times here will remain some of the fondest of my memories in California, and I couldn't recommend a better or more beautiful place.
Mark Powell, Alambama- This is my first time in California and I'm have a wonderful time . I love the cabin and the dollar game! It has really added good memories to my trip; My team mates had fun finding and hiding the dollar. Thank You!
Jinny Kim, San Francisco, Ca- You can't bea the fragrant air, peace, quiet, and lovely setting of your cabin! We had a joyful time; 4 trips into Yosemite, and a day at Indian flats cooling off in the water!We really enjoyed our stay and having great conversation, playing chess and cards! Looking forward to a return trip!
The burkes, Massachesetts- Thanks so much for opening- up your gorgeous cabin to us! It was a perfect retreat for us to visit Yosemite! We loved the quiet-ness, the deck, the space, and the "old oak". We hope we can return again someday!
The Nguyen Family, Alameda, Ca- Thank you so much for theis comfortable stay at your cabin! We had a great time! We felt like we were right at home; everything was here! Your movie collection left us having, "movie nights" every night. Great movies! We will definitely recommend this place to all our friends!
