Mark Zimmaro wrote a story, published in the Burlington County Times on April 22, about me and about my family's goal of finding a bone-marrow match.
The story Mark wrote was amazing. It helped us get the word out to the public about last weekend's donor drive, which was a great success.
We had 100 people who came out and registered.
I just want to thank everyone for stopping by the drive. It was nice to see y'all. It was an amazing day for my family and me — to see all the love and support.
There are so many people I would like to thank, but I want to single out my work family at Tacala Taco Bell for the gift card. They have been so great to me and my family through all of this, and also the Burlington County Times for the article.
Also, I would like to thank the numerous businesses in the area that helped out: Betty Kelly from the National Bone Marrow Registry, Lumberton Township, and Will and Christy Allen.
Also, thanks to all the volunteers. I just asked, and they took care of it.
Thank you to Ashley Pfeifer; to my brother for buying pizza when I forgot about lunch; the Dalmer, May, McDonald, Lunstead and Schaffer families; Harley; Melis Wood and Gale Ouellette.
To all the soccer players who came to the event, I hope I touched your lives as much as you touched mine. I love you. It was nice to see everyone. And thank you to all the soccer coaches for all your help throughout the years.
To my family and my wife and children, thank you for all you do and for keeping me going.
The events of the day have made me very proud, and I'm very lucky to have friends and family who care for and love me.
I hope I didn't miss anyone, but if I did, I am sorry and thank you all.
John Ouellette
Seymour, Tenn.

We have got silver samples of almost all our shaped wedding rings, which we offer on our try-before-you-buy service for a small fee. This allows you to test a few different designs against your engagement ring, and maybe even wear them together for a few hours to ensure the rings are comfortable together. To order a sample of a ring, please choose a ring size and the 'order sample' button will appear. Please note that we only hold one or two sizes of each shaped ring so in most cases we will not be able to supply the exact size you ordered, but we will always include an additional plain band for sizing. Read through our sample service information pages for more information. If you are unsure of the shape required to match your particular engagement ring, please feel free to email us an image so we can point you in the right direction.
Our bespoke service - shape to fit wedding rings
If you try on samples and can't find a perfect snug fit, our bespoke team are on hand to help customise an existing ring or design something new just for you. Our expert team will make sure you are getting your perfect wedding ring and will provide you with quotes and timescales. Our workshops in Brighton and across the UK will then make the ring - bespoke, just for you! For more advice, have a look at our Bespoke service information page. If you'd like to discuss a bespoke ring, email firstname.lastname@example.com with as much information and ideas as possible.

Books Inc. Presents DAVID BOIES & THEODORE B. OLSON at the SF LGBT Center
06/25/2014 7:00 pm
In commemoration of the 1st Anniversary of the Elimination of Propostion 8, Books Inc. celebrates Pride with David Boies and Theodore B. Olson
Join Books Inc. for a riveting look at the inside story of the Supreme Court's landmark rulings on the defining civil rights struggle of our times--The Defense of Marriage Act and Proposition 8--from the two lawyers who argued the case, David Boies and Theodore B. Olson, discussing Redeeming the Dream: The Case for Marriage Equality.
Selected by Time magazine as two of the 100 Most Influential People in the World in 2010, David Boies and Theodore B. Olsen argued opposing sides in Bush v. Gore in 2000. In 2009 the unlikely pair united, seeking to overturn California's unconstitutional ban on gay marriage, Proposition 8. Redeeming the Dream is the fascinating story of this alliance, and the titanic five-year battle to win the right for gays to marry, from Proposition 8's adoption by voters in 2008, to its defeat before the highest court in the land in Hollingsworth v. Perry in 2013.
A brilliant guide through the legal framing of the case, Boies and Olsen make crystal clear the constitutional principles of due process and equal protection in support of marriage equality while explaining, with intricacy, the basic human truths they set out to prove when the duo put state-sanctioned discrimination on trial.
We're honored to have District 8 San Francisco Supervisor Scott Wiener on hand to give a lovely introduction for this exciting event!
About the Authors
David Boies: Since 1997 Mr. Boies has been the Chairman of Boies, Schiller & Flexner LLP, a law firm with offices in New York, Washington D.C., California, Florida, Nevada, and New Hampshire. He has been named Global International Litigator of the Year by Who's Who Legal an unprecedented seven times, including 2013. Among his numerous awards, Mr. Boies has been honored with the Award of Merit from the Yale Law School, the ABA Medal from the American Bar Association, the Vanderbilt Medal from New York University Law School, and the Lead by Example Award from the National Association of Women Lawyers.
Theodore B. Olson: Theodore B. Olson is a partner in Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher's Washington, D.C. office, a member of the firm's Executive Committee, Co-Chair of the Appellate and Constitutional Law Group and the firm's Crisis Management Team. Mr. Olson was Solicitor General of the United States during the period 2001-2004. From 1981-1984 he was Assistant Attorney General in charge of the Office of Legal Counsel in the U.S. Department of Justice.

Local fire departments see funding decline
Both the Tunica Fire Department, which offers fire protection to approximately two-thirds of Tunica County and the town of Tunica, and North Tunica Fire Department, which covers the rest of the county, will receive less funding in the next fiscal year due to a decrease in the assessed value of county property.
According to town officials, Tunica County assesses a quarter mill tax for fire protection. In years past, that quarter mill of tax proceeds went solely to the Tunica Fire Department. Then, 15 years ago, the North Tunica Fire Protection District was created to serve North Tunica County, including local casino resorts and apartment complexes. That quarter mill began to be split 80-20 between TFD and the North Tunica department.

David Harris
David Harris (18 June 1945 / Bradfield, England)
Poems by David Harris : 649 / 2957
Calling Out To The Shadows
Sometime I feel so lonely
touching on to despair
calling out to the shadows
in hope there is someone there.
No voices reply to me
only the silence of loneliness
that oozes through the corridors
I walk along each night.
No flicker from candlelight
to throw shadows on the wall
only a long silence
with never an end in sight.
I can see the shafts of moonlight
through windows no longer there,
the stars through the holes
where there was a roof
as the world revolves around me
a ghost from the past.

It's really wrong to make fun of someone for speaking English as a second language, but Tei's mom, Eiko, once asked me "how is your garden grow?" and now that's the only way I can ask anyone anything (try it next time you want something more snazzy than "how was your day?"). I'm not making fun of her. She's just adorable and Japanese.
Anyway, I just wanted you guys to know that it's not just the chickens that I care about at Peebottle. There's a lot of exciting stuff happening in the garden.
I bought some callaloo at the Union Square Farmers' Market recently, and it's partying in the backyard. "Callalloo" actually refers to a dish made with cooked leafy greens, and that dish can be really different depending on the cook's origins. The "callalloo" pictured above is a kind of Amaranth, and this is what Jamaicans usually use. (Jamaican readers, please send me your recipes. Thanks.) I went for it because there are many Jamaicans (and Trinidadians) in my neck of Brooklyn, and I have enjoyed the dish lots of times. Now I just need to find someone to give me a cooking lesson. Don't think I'm kidding—I have a habit of inviting myself to the homes of strangers and buying them groceries in exchange for lessons in the home cooking of wherever they're from.
What kind of pepper is this? I have no memory and no idea! It looks spicy and I think I will pickle it. And then put it on a roast pork sandwich with mayonnaise. OK?
I know what these are, and I'm real jazzed about them. They're shishito peppers that Eiko started for us, and I just snipped them to blister in a very hot cast iron skillet and then dress with lemon juice and salt. (Eiko likes them with soy sauce and a little sugar, which I will try too). They're mild but also do not taste like green belle peppers—thank god. I see them rarely at the greenmarket so I'm thrilled to have them in my own backyard.

Arkady Shilkloper goes places that horn players aren't supposed to go without a net, map, seat belt, crash helmet, overhead air support, and a note from their mothers.
And he does so with extraordinary ease and musicality.
I think maybe nobody ever told him "Jazz playing on horn is very difficult, and probably not natural" or perhaps the phrase does not translate into Russian.
I'd walk a camel a mile to hear this guy.

Associate Professor of Horn at the University of Iowa School of Music

Helicopter crash kills 16
A Vietnamese military helicopter on a parachute training mission crashed close to the Vietnamese capital on Monday, killing 16 people on board and critically injuring five others, officials and state-controlled media said.
The Russian-made MI-171 helicopter came down about 15 minutes after takeoff in a small village about 24 miles (40 kilometres) west of Hanoi.
A doctor at a military hospital said 16 people were killed and five others were being treated for serious burn injuries.
The injured were being treated in the national burns hospital in Hanoi. A doctor there said they had only a slim chance of survival. The doctors didn't give their names because they weren't authorized to speak to the media.
Reports in the state-controlled media said 16 of those on board were parachute recruits from the air force's helicopter regiment. There were also two trainers and three crew members on board.
Lt. Gen. Vo Van Tuan, Vietnam military deputy chief of staff, was quoted as saying technical problems, not sabotage of any kind, were suspected in the crash. He said the pilot of the chopper successfully steered it away from a residential area, preventing loss of life on the ground.
The MI-171 helicopter is primarily a transport aircraft, but there is also a gunship version.

Brilliant, haunting, breathtakingly suspenseful, Night Film is a superb literary thriller by the author of the blockbuster debut Special Topics in Calamity Physics.
On a damp October night, beautiful young Ashley Cordova is found dead in an abandoned warehouse in lower Manhattan. Though her death is ruled a suicide, veteran investigative journalist Scott McGrath suspects otherwise. As he probes the strange circumstances surrounding Ashley's life and death, McGrath comes face-to-face with the legacy of her father: the legendary, reclusive cult-horror-film director Stanislas Cordova—a man who hasn't been seen in public for more than thirty years.
For McGrath, another death connected to this seemingly cursed family dynasty seems more than just a coincidence. Though much has been written about Cordova's dark and unsettling films, very little is known about the man himself.
Driven by revenge, curiosity, and a need for the truth, McGrath, with the aid of two strangers, is drawn deeper and deeper into Cordova's eerie, hypnotic world.
The last time he got close to exposing the director, McGrath lost his marriage and his career. This time he might lose even more.
Night Film, the gorgeously written, spellbinding new novel by the dazzlingly inventive Marisha Pessl, will hold you in suspense until you turn the final page.
Praise for Night Film
"Night Film has been precision-engineered to be read at high velocity, and its energy would be the envy of any summer blockbuster. Your average writer of thrillers should lust for Pessl's deft touch with character."—Joe Hill, The New York Times Book Review
"Mysterious and even a little head-spinning, an amazing act of imagination."—Dean Baquet, The New York Times Book Review
"Maniacally clever . . . Cordova is a monomaniacal genius who creeps into the darkest crevices of the human psyche. . . . As a study of a great mythmaker, Night Film is an absorbing act of myth-making itself. . . . Dastardly fun . . . The plot feels like an M. C. Escher nightmare about Edgar Allan Poe. . . . You'll miss your subway stop, let dinner burn and start sleeping with the lights on."—The Washington Post
"If there's any justice, the first chapter of literary wunderkind Marisha Pessl's much-awaited second novel, Night Film, should go down in literary history as among the most notable formal innovations of this century. . . . Here she conjures an entire oeuvre, as well as its production, reception, and mediation. But her biggest triumph is the specter of Cordova himself. 'He's a myth, a monster, a mortal man,' she writes. One who, by the book's end, many readers will wish desperately was real."—The Boston Globe
"A very deeply imagined book . . . sprints to an ending that's equal parts nagging and haunting: What lingers, beyond all the page-turning, is a density of possible clues that leaves you leafing backward, scanning fictional blog comments and newspaper clippings, positive there's some secret detail that will snap everything into focus."—New York
"Hypnotic . . . The real and the imaginary, life and art, are dizzyingly distorted not only in a Cordova night film . . . but in Pessl's own Night Film as well."—Vanity Fair
"A literary mystery that's also a page-turner . . . Night Film might be the most talked-about novel this summer."—Time Out New York
"Noirish, impish and stylish, this literary thriller delivers twists, kinks and characters to care about. . . . Night Film gets two thumbs up."—More
"You won't put this book down."—Marie Claire
"A shrewdly contemporary whodunit."—W Magazine
"The sort of a top-shelf whodunit that thriller buffs dream of. Seriously, people, this is the Game of Thrones of murder mysteries."—Out
"Night Film is an engrossing yarn, full of twists and cliffhangers. . . . Pessl handles Cordova's menace superbly, keeping readers in thrall."—The Economist
"It may be true, as the opening scene of the novel says, that everybody has a story about Cordova. But it's hard to imagine any one that would be better than Night Film."—St. Louis Post-Dispatch
"Screenshots of online news articles and the Cordovite fansite, as well as copies of mental hospital patient assessment forms and other official documents—all fictional—plus McGrath's terror-filled imagination, pull the reader into Pessl's masterfully played ruse. Pessl has matured into a cleverly entertaining writer who wields her strengths with greater precision than in Special Topics."—The Kansas City Star
"A gothic thriller that's among the best novels I've read this year."—Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
"Having finished Night Film, I now find myself a dedicated Cordovite."—Rob Brunner, The New York Times Magazine
"A testament to Pessl's tremendous gifts as a storyteller."—Scott Smith, author of The Ruins
"A rare and wonderful thing—an ambitious novel that hits its target fair and square. Night Film is beautifully imagined, beautifully written, and hypnotically suspenseful."—Lee Child, author of A Wanted Man
"This summer's Gone Girl: a completely absorbing literary thriller."—Library Journal
"Inventive . . . Think Edgar Allan Poe and Stephen King meet Guillermo del Toro."—Kirkus Reviews
"Seven years after Special Topics in Calamity Physics, Pessl returns with a novel as twisted and intelligent as that lauded debut."—Publishers Weekly
"Expands from a seemingly straightforward mystery into a multifaceted, densely byzantine exploration of much larger issues."—Booklist (starred review)

See August On the Markets from the Global Investment Committee featuring
• "Transition Time" The Federal Reserve has continually told investors that they would be very patient and slow to raise short-term interest rates. Now, strong employment data has raised the possibility of sooner-than-expected rate hikes, says Mike Wilson, chief investment officer of Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, and markets could continue to be volatile until they have fully recalibrated to an accelerated timetable.
• "Fishing for Stocks in the Market's Midstream" The cheapest stocks in the S&P 500—those with the lowest price/earnings ratios—are not necessarily the best stocks to own at this point in the market cycle. The better investments appear to be closer to the market averages.
• "Keep an Opportunistic Eye on Mexico and India" Emerging market equities have performed well so far this year, but the Global Investment Committee is underweight in the asset class for a number of reasons, including rich valuations and a vulnerability to rising US interest rates. That said, Mexico and India stand apart. Political change and economic reforms could make them future stars.
Plus, look for more on economics, fixed income investments and real estate.

I really enjoyed this play. The acting was fabulous, especially Janet Ulrich Brooks' portrayal of the Russian diplomat, Anya. Wow!!! The set was cool. It was minimalist, but came to life when the lights dimmed and the scene opened. It complimented the wonderful performances of the actors. I highly recommend this play.

Since I have read nearly every novel Nora Roberts has written, I had an enormous sigh of lovers to consider in selecting a top five. I could have chosen a top twenty more easily. But after due consideration, these five are the couples that I love most together. They are not necessarily the heroes I consider most swoon-worthy or the heroines I most admire or the books at the top of my keeper list but rather those whose HEAs I believe in most wholeheartedly.
5. Caroline Waverly and Tucker Longstreet, Carnal Innocence (1991)
Burned out concert violinist Caroline, a Yankee who retreats to the small-town South after a breakdown, and wealthy, laidback Southern charmer Tucker, who is practically legendary for his allergy to commitment, are no one's idea of a perfect match. Tucker, a connoisseur of beautiful women, finds Caro captivating from the beginning, but she is unimpressed with him until she becomes aware of the substance beneath the good-old-boy façade. Caroline is hungry for connection and for love based on who she is rather than on her talent, and Tucker has a great capacity for love as evidenced by his devotion to his messed up family and his anonymous acts of charity. Both characters are more than the sum of their parts, and at heart, they are more alike than different.

We finally restocked our supply of frozen pizza dough (thanks entirely to SP!) so I was able to make pizza last Friday. We had some thinly sliced pepperoni and a container of frozen sauce in the freezer so this was even easier to put together then normal.
I love photographing my homemade pizzas. They always look so delicious before I cut into them.
We baked this a little longer then usual (got slightly distracted...oops!) but even the burnt edges were good (SP is such a trooper for eating them). Definitely one of my better pizzas.

WSJ Invites More Ignorant Anti-Bike Zealots to Sully Its Pages
Law professor Frank H. Buckley seems to want to be the next Dororthy Rabinowitz. That is, he wants to gain notoriety by clinging to old and unsafe street designs while, simultaneously, shoring up the Wall Street Journal's reputation as a bastion of change-averse curmudgeons. Done and done.
Buckley wrote an op-ed in Friday's Journal about the controversy on Alexandria, Virginia's King Street — the bustling main street through charming Old Town Alexandria, densely packed with upscale bistros and boutiques — which he prefers to think of as a "main artery, State Highway 7," neglecting all that makes King Street vibrant and unique. West of Old Town, the city wants to put in a short stretch of bike lane. The plan already makes huge compromises in the name of car supremacy, refusing to post No Standing signs and replacing the lanes with sharrows for short segments.
But this timid step toward designing a safer street isn't nearly timid enough for Buckley, who argues against the lanes — which will eliminate 37 parking spaces — with this ironclad logic:
As for the residents, we're really attached to our parking spots. We like to tell our friends to drop by anytime. We don't want to send our plumbers to park a few blocks over, on streets that are already congested. Not a problem, the city tells us. Just get a special parking permit from city hall for visitors. And what about the occasional party? What do we tell our guests? Ah, the city's street coordinator said, channeling her inner Marie Antoinette, let them get valet parking.
"Let them die on streets designed exclusively for most dangerous and least efficient mode of transportation," is Buckley's far more compassionate credo, then.
So sorry your expensive, urban neighborhood — a classic of colonial design — was built with skinny streets and dense development, Mr. Buckley. Why didn't the founders have the forethought to set aside enough space for everyone on your street to comfortably accommodate the cars of a dinner party's worth of people, all at the same time, within blocks of one of the country's best metro systems?
I don't have to pick apart every ignorant statement Buckley makes in his story, because The Wash Cycle already did that, with great aplomb. (David Cranor, The Wash Cycle's low-profile author, also mentions the cringe-worthy tactlessness of calling the loss of 37 parking spaces a battle in "the bike wars," especially on Veterans Day weekend.)
Buckley isn't the only writer complaining about the "war on cars" these days. Writing in the right-wing rag The Weekly Standard, Christopher Caldwell argues this week that cyclists are an unruly and antagonistic bunch of self-righteous road hogs. Caldwell even refers to cyclists as an "ever more powerful lobby," a reckless and self-righteous group that has "tested the public's willingness for compromise." Buckley says the same: "When you see the bike activists in your neighborhood, be warned that they tend not to play nice." They don't cling to the potholed and uneven edge of the road! They sometimes ride next to each other! And they'll yell at you if you almost kill them! (As Daniel Duane noted in the New York Times Saturday, that's about all that will happen to you if you almost kill — or even if you do kill — a bicyclist.)

After an extended break of 13 years, Bollywood actress Shilpa Shirodkar, who enjoyed popularity back in 1980s and 1990s, thanks to films like "Bhrashtachar" and "Kishen Kanhaiya", is ready to bounce back, albeit via the small screen route.
The 43-year-old makes an unconventional comeback with the role of a domestic help in Zee TV's new show "Ek Muthi Aasman". The show itself is about domestic helps.
"I'm glad that I'm making a comeback with a show that deals with such a strong subject," Shilpa told reporters here Monday.
"The TV show deals with the troubles and tribulations that domestic workers go through. Also, through the show, we want to change the mindset of people and tell them that domestic workers are also human beings and they deserve respect and love," she added.
Shilpa, who bid adieu to stardom and settled in London with husband Apresh Ranjit in 2000, plays Kamlabai in the show, which is set in Mumbai.
"My character Kamlabai is an ordinary Maharashtrian domestic help, who works to run her house. She does everything from cooking, cleaning to washing. She has a son. She lives with the dream of giving a better life to her child and seeing him well-settled," said Shilpa.
She promises the show will be replete with "lots of twists and turns", through which "viewers will get to see the ups and downs that a domestic worker goes through".
Shilpa, who also has a nine-year-old daughter named Anushka, shared that back in London, she did all the household chores herself. But now since she has made a recent shift to Mumbai, she has a domestic help who takes care of her house.
"I got married in 2000. My husband and I settled in London. I used to do everything right from cleaning, cooking, ironing, getting petrol filled in the car to washing. But now I have a maid who takes care of things."
"Today I am working because she is there to look after my home and daughter. There's a lot of love, admiration and support (for her). I also tell my daugther to be thankful to the maid always," she said, adding how she will use her personal experience to the character.
With no films in hand, the actress wants to give 100 percent of her focus to the TV show.
She said: "I'm an actor. I don't care if it's TV or films...your work should be interesting. I'am excited for the show and even my daughter is thrilled. She says she would accompany me on the sets on weekends."
"Ek Muthi Aasman" is likely to go on air mid-August.

AFC East: Jeff Saturday
Robert Kraft strong in trying times
Few owners in the history of professional sports have a moment like the one the New England Patriots' Robert Kraft experienced Monday afternoon in Washington, D.C.
At a time of deep personal pain, as he was grieving the death of his wife Myra, who passed away last Wednesday, Kraft was singled out as one of the main reasons the 2011 football season was saved. It was a powerful moment that couldn't be scripted.
To hear it was one thing. But this was one you had to see to really feel the impact.
It was the way 295-pound offensive lineman Jeff Saturday, a leader among the players' executive committee, brought his right arm around Kraft and pulled him close, Kraft's head nestling into Saturday's chest to receive the embrace with feeling.
If anyone needed a snapshot to know the NFL's lockout had officially come to an end, this was it. Players and owners united in a moment that had a strong New England twist.
For the follow story, click here.
Video: Goodell trying to divide players?
NFL Players Association leaders Drew Brees, Mike Vrabel, Jeff Saturday, Brian Dawkins and Domonique Foxworth sat down with ESPN reporter George Smith to discuss the players' thoughts on labor negotiations, rookies attending the draft and an 18-game schedule.
Saturday called NFL commissioner Roger Goodell's recent letter sent directly to players an "attempt to divide us as a group of men."
Oh, snap! Center-QB exchange important
Unless an injury befalls one of them, Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars will be the 158th start together for Manning and Saturday.
That will be the most quarterback-center exchanges since the NFL-AFL merger in 1970, breaking the record held the past 14 years by Jim Kelly and Kent Hull with the Buffalo Bills.
"The chemistry between those two is a must for a quarterback to be successful," Kelly said. "I was blessed because I had Kent Hull for more than 90 percent of the snaps that I took in the NFL."
Although the quarterback gets the credit for audibles at the line of scrimmage, something Manning is famous for, the center plays a crucial role.
"We would go up to the line and Kent would turn to me and say 'Get out of it,' " Kelley said. "He knew based on the alignment of the nose tackle whether it was a 3-4 or a 4-3. He always knew if the play was going to work by their initial alignment when we'd get up there. I wouldn't even ask any questions or wait to look."
In the AFC East, New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and center Dan Koppen are on the verge of breaking into the top five. They've started 103 games together and should surpass Phil Simms and Bart Oates on Halloween. Brady and Koppen have been to four Super Bowls together and won the first three.
New York Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez and All-Pro center Nick Mangold have a long way to go to catch up, but they're next at 19 starts.
The Miami Dolphins have rotated their centers every year. Young quarterback Chad Henne and center Joe Berger started six games last year and all three this year.
New Buffalo Bills starting quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick has started nine games with center Geoff Hangartner.
Mangold is Jets' center of inattention
Al Messerschmidt/Getty Images
According to his teammates, Jets center Nick Mangold should do all his talking on the field.
Don't bother talking to Mangold. Save yourself the trouble.
"He loves to tell stories," said Brandon Moore, the guard who lines up to Mangold's right. "He's horrible at them."
Turns out Mangold is long-winded, tedious, awkward and, in the end, simply doesn't deliver.
"We always make it a point in our meeting room that when you tell a story, you better get to the punch line quick or we'll start clowning you," Jets right tackle Damien Woody said. "Everybody else knows how tell a story except him.
"He just drags it on and on. We'll make sleepy sounds or somebody will yell 'Next!' Come on, you're on the clock."
That's what stands out about Mangold's personality off the field.
So what makes him such an outstanding center?
"Now, that's a different story," Woody said, changing from a playful demeanor to a serious one. "He's the best center in the league. There's no disputing that."
Mangold is boringly great. He's in his fourth NFL season and already has been selected to a pair of Pro Bowls. He was voted All-Pro this season.
He's the anchor of an offensive line that paved the way for the NFL's top-rated run offense -- which starts its league-leading 35th straight game together when the Jets play the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday afternoon in the AFC Championship Game.
"He might just be the best offensive lineman in the entire league -- at least in the top five," Scouts Inc. analyst Matt Williamson said. "He just keeps getting better."
Jets fullback Tony Richardson called Mangold "a technician." Mangold is universally regarded as one of the most intelligent players in the game, and was able to recognize complicated NFL defensive schemes almost from the moment he came out of Ohio State with the 29th overall pick in 2006.
Unlike his stories, he's never off balance. He takes precise blocking angles. He's versatile enough to lock up with elite defensive tackles, skedaddle outside for help on the edge or hit a moving target downfield.
Williamson pointed out Mangold has an unusual body type for a center. He is listed at 6-foot-4, which is tall for a center. But he's so adept at leveraging his 305-pound frame underneath a defender that his height is never an issue, while his long arms make him extra tricky to circumvent.
"Mangold not only can play with power, but he can play with athletic ability and quickness," Williamson said. "It seems like just about every other center in the league is either a power guy or a finesse guy. Mangold is both. Overall, he's a stud."
Alan Faneca, the perennial Pro Bowl left guard, and Jets offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer both consider Mangold a boon for the line because he can handle assignments -- even somebody as dangerous as New England Patriots nose tackle Vince Wilfork -- by himself.
Faneca agreed with the idea Mangold was the offense's version of Darrelle Revis, the type of player who can eliminate the opponent in front of him and reduce the game to 10 on 10.
"He makes all of our lives easier," Faneca said. "Some of the things that he's able to do, we're able to leave him alone. A lot of centers in this league might need a little help, might need a nudge. He's the kind of guy that allows us to work different combinations. It's big-time."
Jets linebacker Bart Scott recently said Mangold was the best center he's seen, listing names that included Kevin Mawae, Matt Birk and Jeff Saturday.
"He's special," Richardson said. "Our offensive line has been phenomenal across the board. Looking at Nick, he's like having a quarterback on your offensive line."
Based solely on what his teammates said about Mangold's inept interpersonal communication skills, it might have been surprising to watch him hold court with reporters all week in front of his locker stall.
But he's obviously comfortable talking about the game, his coaches, his teammates and the upcoming opponent. He speaks on those subjects much more freely than himself.
The only way to extract a comment about how well things have been going for him is when he speaks within the context of the entire offensive line, which produced three Pro Bowlers this season: Mangold, Faneca and left tackle D'Brickashaw Ferguson.
"When we first got together back in March, one of the things that was told to us was we were going to be one of the most physical teams out there," Mangold said. "That's helped in a big way of us being able to do the things we're able to do.
"When you watch our running backs get through the line and just pound on safeties and linebackers, you can feel it. It's a great feeling after you get the win, knowing you just physically beat somebody up out there."
If the Jets' offensive line can punish the Colts' soft run defense this week, then maybe Mangold and his mates will be off to Miami -- not to play in next weekend's Pro Bowl, but in the Super Bowl the week after.
That would be a Mangold story worth listening to.
Bills RB Rhodes driven to overcome his past
|AP Photo/David Duprey
|When all the Bills' running backs are active, free-agent signee Dominic Rhodes is probably No. 3 on the depth chart.
Posted by ESPN.com's Tim Graham
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Dominic Rhodes was at the most exhilarating juncture of his career.
He was reveling in the glory as a Super Bowl champion, and he was more than a bit player for the Indianapolis Colts. He could have been the game's MVP.
Furthermore, Rhodes was headed to free agency. Convinced he deserved to be a starting back after years of mopping up for Edgerrin James and Joseph Addai, the big break was within sight.
Rhodes blew it.
He blew a .09, and he blew his best opportunity to show he could be somebody's leading man in 2007.
"That year, me and Travis Henry were the top backs in the free-agent market," Rhodes said last week after a Buffalo Bills minicamp practice. "I had high hopes for myself. I don't know, man."
Rhodes is certain his past transgressions still follow him. He has been arrested for DUI and domestic abuse. Two years ago, he was suspended as a repeat offender under the NFL's substance abuse policy.
As a free agent again this year, he wasn't pursued nearly as much as he figured. He did turn 30 in January. Signing a running back at that age is tantamount to buying a gallon of milk a day before the expiration date.
|Stan Liu/US Presswire
|After being cut by the Raiders, Rhodes returned to Indianapolis last season and ran for 538 yards and six touchdowns.
But Rhodes was coming off a productive season with the Colts. He gained 840 total yards as Addai's backup. He said he's happy to be with the Bills, but he thought he would've had more options.
"I was upset with how it went," Rhodes said. "I really figured I would get more interest and more teams would be coming to get me.
"But I sat back and realized some of the mistakes I made. I messed up."
Two weeks after running for a game-high 113 yards and a touchdown to help the Colts beat the Chicago Bears in Super Bowl XLI, Rhodes was failing field-sobriety tests at 3 a.m. on the Interstate-65 shoulder in Indianapolis.
Police arrested Rhodes for DUI, but the blunder didn't cost him right away. Three weeks later, the Oakland Raiders signed him to a two-year contract worth $7.5 million. And his legal problems improved. He pleaded guilty to reckless driving and had the DUI charges dropped.
Rhodes was in the clear. Or so he thought.
The NFL suspended him the first four games of 2007 as a repeat offender under its substance abuse policy. Rhodes forfeited almost $353,000 in game checks and fell out of favor with the Raiders' front office. They cut him after the season.
The undrafted overachiever from tiny Midwestern State had done so much to make it in NFL, but he prevented himself from experiencing all that was possible.
"More than the money, when you're 75 or 80 years old, you're going to look back on the opportunities missed," said Carolina Panthers quarterback Josh McCown, who was Rhodes' training camp roommate with the Raiders. "Those are going to be your regrets, regardless if there's a dollar sign attached or not. He realizes that was a missed opportunity. As a competitor in this business, you hate to miss any opportunity."
In 2002, Rhodes was arrested for domestic battery. Rhodes avoided a conviction. The judge placed him in a diversion program and mandated counseling.
"I'm not shying away from the fact I got in trouble," Rhodes said. "It's out there. People know. I'm ready to talk about it and make amends for it and help anyone else who needs help with it."
The timing of his DUI and the four-game suspension torpedoed his chance to become a feature back.
When he joined the Raiders, he fully expected to emerge as the starter. But in the first three games he was away from the team, LaMont Jordan rushed for 70, 159 and 121 yards. In Week 4, Jordan ran for 74 yards, while Justin Fargas ran for 179 yards.
"The four weeks off really hurt him in his heart because he missed being around us and playing the game," McCown said. "That's when it really set in what had happened.
"Even moving forward there was a thought process 'I'll sign with Oakland and win this appeal and go play and be opening day starter and parlay that into something bigger.' When the suspension came down, it was a blow to what he was hoping to get accomplished."
Rhodes played only six games for Oakland. He had only 24 yards through his first three appearances. He started the last two, rushing for more than 100 yards in each loss.
"I wished he would've gotten a chance to work in that offense the whole year," McCown said, "because I think he would have had a big year."
Rhodes returned to his comfort zone last season. Indianapolis was a security blanket.
Benevolent coach Tony Dungy welcomed him back. With such mainstays as Peyton Manning, Marvin Harrison, Reggie Wayne and Jeff Saturday, the offense hadn't changed. After seeing the grass was browner elsewhere, Rhodes was more willing to accept his backup role to Addai.
"We're barely a year and a half removed from my DUI," Rhodes said. "Teams were kind of scared of that. Teams that don't know you are scared. The Colts know me. They know that I'm not a bad guy."
Rhodes, who started four games last season when Addai was hurt, ran for 538 yards and six touchdowns. He caught 45 passes for 302 yards and three touchdowns. His nine combined scores matched the single-season career high he set as a rookie, when he filled in for James and rushed for 1,104 yards.
"One thing people forget is they think of him as a backup, but I think he's a little better football player than the perception," said former Colts coach Ted Marchibroda, who is a broadcast analyst for the team. "He did a great job filling in last year.
"I think he felt in his first stint with the Colts he should've been playing more, and he made it known. But not this time. He was real happy coming back with the Colts and did a good job."
But the offers didn't roll in. That was a nice development for the Bills, who failed to sign free agents Fred Taylor and Kevin Jones.
"I was excited to see him go back to Indy and hopefully rekindle what he had going there," McCown said. "When I saw he got to play in some games and was starting, I thought 'You know what? He's going to turn this into something good. It's going to work out for him.' I was surprised people didn't take more interest in him."
Rhodes signed a two-year contract that will pay him base salaries of $750,000 this year and $1.25 million next year. The deal included $450,000 in bonuses.
He's probably third on Buffalo's depth chart when everybody is active. Pro Bowl back Marshawn Lynch has been suspended for the first three games because of repeated malfeasance. Popular backup Fred Jackson should be the primary backup.
"The opportunity's there for me to get some touches," Rhodes said. "They wanted me the year I came into free agency after the Super Bowl, so I figured the second time is a charm.
"All I want to do is get out there and make some plays and just keep showing the league what I got and keep playing as long as I can."
Rhodes insists he's more mature than he used to be, that he has amended his lifestyle and learned from his mistakes.
Another misstep could lead to a season-long suspension.
"I have a chip on my shoulder," Rhodes said. "I came from a small school. I'm a smaller back. I run a lot different than most smaller backs. I'm a between-the-tackles guy and I'm always out there trying to prove a point and make sure people notice me when I'm on the field.
"That's just me. I'm always out to prove myself and give everything I got and make sure my teammates know I'm accountable."
Welker trade gets even uglier for Fins
|G. Newman Lowrance/Getty Images
|The Dolphins traded Wes Welker to the Patriots for draft picks, one of which Miami used on Samson Satele, who may be out of a starting job.
Posted by ESPN.com's Tim Graham
Despite a faction of Dolfans who've refused to concede because center Samson Satele just might forge a dominant career, I think we can safely declare a winner in the Wes Welker trade.
The Miami Dolphins got rolled in the parking lot.
As if Welker's 223 receptions and 2,240 yards in two seasons weren't enough to declare the New England Patriots clear victors, the Dolphins are extracting Satele from the middle of their offensive line.
Former Miami general manager Randy Mueller traded Welker to New England for second- and seventh-round draft picks in 2007. The Dolphins selected Satele and linebacker Abraham Wright.
Although the Dolphins waived Wright last spring, Satele had shown promise. He started all 16 games as a rookie, something no Dolphins center -- not even Hall of Famer Dwight Stephenson -- had done. Satele was Miami's first rookie offensive lineman since 2003 to start every game.
But it doesn't look like Satele will be Miami's center anymore, making the Welker trade even more lopsided.
It's becoming common knowledge in the NFL community the Dolphins already have decided Satele won't snap the ball next year because the 6-foot-3, 300-pound Hawaiian isn't physical enough.
An NFL source informed me Bill Parcells, Jeff Ireland and Tony Sparano have made finding a new O-line anchor their priority -- and they don't care if they land one through free agency or the draft. Satele could be rendered a depth player if he doesn't evolve into an effective guard.
The best available free-agent centers are Jeff Saturday, Matt Birk, Jason Brown and Brad Meester. Brown is a four-year pro, while the others have at least nine years of experience.
Draft gurus rank California's Alex Mack and Oregon's Max Unger as the best centers in this year's class.
The Dolphins own the 25th pick, and Mack seems to be in that neighborhood. ESPN's Mel Kiper and Todd McShay predict the Pittsburgh Steelers will take Mack with the 32nd selection. Scouts Inc. ranks him the 32nd-best prospect in the draft.
