Donna, if you had read my findagrave bio, you would have seen the following:
Many of you send me correction notices. It is my practice not to make any corrections unless I have personal knowledge of their validity. I will, however, transfer those memorials.
I will not add unsubstantiated (by me) info to memorials.
If you want you may contact findagrave admin and ask them to add the info.
Thanks for your interest in findagrave.

If you haven't heard PFT's Mike Florio reported that he had an 'unnamed source' who over heard Panthers WR Steve Smith say rookie QB Jimmy Clausen is a 'punk'. You can read his response to Smitty's on-air response here and follow the links to the original report. You will also see Florio's mention of this site and CSR Editor James the Aussie's admitted 'non-verbatim' account of Smitty's interview here.
This whole non-event smells of garbage and the members of this site are having none of it. You can read all the responses at the previous link but there is one in particular that is extremely well thought out....after the jump
Mr. Ed12345: The thing that really does it for me on this one is the way Florio has reacted to Smitty's interview. If he wants to play journalist, that's his prerogative. But if he's going to do that, and expects to be taken seriously, he needs to do the things that come with it. Now, I didn't go to journalism school, but I'm in a field that involves dealing with the press, and I've worked with and around a lot of journalists. Actual journalists. Actual journalists, in a situation like this, would have done things very differently.
First, they would have sourced the claim that Smitty called Clausen a punk. They would have talked to Smitty, they would have talked to the other WRs and TEs, and they would have talked to Clausen. They would have asked all of them what happened, and if they denied it, or if some did and some didn't, then that goes in the story. Florio clearly didn't do that. When you're quoting someone as saying something, and you're going to write on it, the first thing you do is find two (minimum) more sources to back that up, and you check with the person quoted, tell them what you're running, and ask them if the quote's accurate. Not only is it common courtesy, it's good journalistic practice. Put the information out there. If you've got a source that says Smitty called Clausen a punk, then you put that. If Smitty then says he didn't, you put that in too, and then people can decide if they think he did or didn't say it. Your job is to put the facts out there, and then, if you feel like editorializing, to draw some conclusions.
Second, they wouldn't make this personal, and they definitely wouldn't engage in ad hominem attacks with the subject of a story. That's exactly what Florio did in his response, posted above. What kind of reporter writes a story on someone, then calls them an idiot when they refute it? That's not reporting, that's school ground name-calling. "Steve Smith is an idiot and doesn't understand anonymous sourcing" is not a defense of your piece. Providing some other sources who can verify your piece, by contract, would be. If nobody on that roster or in that organization wants to go on-record to verify what happened, that says something about the story you're running with. These aren't matters of national security. Nobody's talking about some anonymous source who's leaking CIA memos. It's a he said, she said name-calling piece, and if you can't source it better than one unnamed flapping jaw, then you better know somebody's going to call you on it, and you better have something in your pocket to give them when they do. If you're not happy with somebody calling you out on it, and you don't have anything else to run with when they do, you're probably better off sitting on it. If it's legit, then you've still got the quote down the line. If not, you saved yourself a lot of trouble. You don't run with a story like that, with that kind of sourcing, unless you're trying to get your name in the papers while the NFL news cycle is at a post-draft standstill. If you're trying to get a handle on the locker room rapport in Carolina, then you take that, sit on it, and do some more digging around until you come up with something real. Then you can pull out your anonymous quote, tack it on with some verified facts, and call it a case. But not until then. Not if you're trying to do some actual reporting.
That brings me to my last point, and that has to do with this cyclone of journalistic ethics hokum about protecting anonymous sources. Florio put himself in a situation where he ran with a story with one anonymous source, and it was a story he knew good and well would be inflammatory. If the only thing you can say in defense of it is…. well, nothing, then you've done something wrong. The anonymity if sources is important, yes. It's important for people to know they can remain anonymous so that when things come up that people need to know about, they know that they can get that information out there without compromising their careers, reputations, livelihoods, etc. But, again, we're not talking about some whistle blower at DOD. We're talking about football. Maybe if this guy's name gets out there, he loses his job. I doubt it, but it's possible. That's a legitimate concern. On the other hand, maybe Florio shouldn't have put himself in a situation where the only way he has to defend a story is the one anonymous tipster. Then this wouldn't be an issue. He could point to somebody else. At the very least, there shouldn't be a quote from an anonymous source hanging out there without any qualification. He doesn't have to give away the farm, but he should say, for example, that there's a QB battle brewing in Carolina, and maybe someone has an axe to grind with Clausen because they're a fan of Matt Moore, and so forth and so on. But my real problem is with the statement that Florio's "most important job" is protecting his source. I'm sorry, but it isn't. His most important job is getting the information that the source has out into the open. There's always the possibility that a source gets revealed. Most of them do. Most leakers get caught. There are only so many people you can fit in any given room at any given time. NFL players take up more room than most people. There couldn't have been that many people in the room. You don't run a quote that could cost someone their job unless you think there's more value in the quote than there is risk to their job. At least, most people don't. If Florio was really worried about the source, he should have gotten some cover for him. Somebody, anybody else who was willing to say something. Even two anonymous sources would have been SOMETHING. If you can't get two people on the phone to anonymously verify a story, something's wrong with the story. An NFL organization is definitely, definitely not that airtight. You can usually pull more than one unnamed source with the national security stuff, much less a mini-camp dust up.
My point is this: Florio needs to get off his high horse. He's up there bareback, he doesn't know what the hell he's doing, and he's going to end up hurting himself.
Thanks Ed more supplying the industry insight into this matter that in my debunks the entire premise of Florio 'protect the source' argument.
Yet those Panther fans who have studied Smith since he entered the league already knew better. I think it's obvious Florio used Smitty's name because he thought it would be the most believable based on his history of conflicts with teammates. What Florio failed to consider is that this, believe it or not, to take about someone behind their back is very out-of-character for Smitty, who if nothing else wears his feelings on his sleeve and isn't afraid to confront someone if he feels the need. He says it to their face rather than gossiping to the media or so-called friends. For example, he didn't hesitate to call out WR Dwayne Jarrett and his work ethic a few seasons ago. He also isn't someone to run from his comments if he truly said something, like when he said to Delhomme "I never like you as a QB" last season. He explained what he meant, he didn't deny saying it.
Make no mistake Mr. Florio, Panthers fans know who to believe in this case and it certainly isn't your 'unnamed source'. I suggest you take Mr. Ed's response to heart and change your ways the next time you want to report gossip about Jimmy Clausen or Steve Smith for that matter.

Oct. 19, 2011 -- About 11% of Americans aged 12 or older take antidepressants, including many who have not seen a mental health professional in the past year, according to a new federal report.
The report by the CDC's National Center for Health Statistics also says that the rate of antidepressant use in the U.S. has increased nearly 400% since 1988.
Among key findings in the study:
More than a third of females and less than a fifth of males with moderate symptoms of depression take medications to treat their mood problems, according to the report.
Females are 2.5 times more likely than males to take antidepressants, but there is no difference by sex in rates of use of antidepressants among people between 12 and 17.
The study shows that 23% of women between 40 and 59 take antidepressants, more than in any other age-sex group. Males and females aged 40 and over are more likely than younger people to take antidepressants.
The researchers say it is important for people who have depressive symptoms to be treated, and emphasis needs to be placed on increasing treatment rates among adults and children.

What a wonderful tribute to this precious little man, Ari. Your heart has broken for 'ours' for years...and ow, 'our' hearts ache for you and your family. It is your 'heart' that continues to 'give' us the sweetest memories of your son. Your family is one of a few that make every single day in your home so full of love and hope and purpose....and God's plan. It is your heart that will continue to give this world a story of all that there is to hope for 'in the midst' of sheer agony and heart break; you will/and are sharing your life.........and that gives a bright light that outshines the darkness. I appreciate you, respect you, admire you, and love you. Thank you for sharing your Ari with us.
Dear Sara, what a wonderful video.
My hearts breaks for you. I continue to pray that Jesus will wrap you in His arms and give you comfort and a measure of His Peace.
Would you allow me to post the video on my God's Perfect Sight website?
Love You Sara
Dear Sara,
This is a beautiful video, thanks for sharing, such a tragedy, God bless you and give you strength to tolerate such a huge lost. I can easily relate to you pain..

I emailed a question to K.C. Johnson about this trade possibility. For length reasons the question put in the paper was without some of the better points I made, but now I am here to get some legitimate feedback. I proposed that the Bulls hop in as the 3rd team with any Nuggets-?-Bulls possibility.
It is apparent that the Nuggets are trying to shed Chauncey Billups' contract, but he has requested that if the Knicks or Nets acquire him they buy out his contract. If the Bulls were to send something along the lines of Ronnie Brewer and a 1st rounder to Denver, simply for the return of Chauncey, why would Denver say no? Before anybody gets bent out of shape about the idea, consider a few things.
1.) Chauncey played SG in high school and College so it is not as if you are trying to play a definite ball handler/distributor at the 2.
2.) DRose credits playing with Chauncey this summer on team USA as a great learning experience. Getting that veteran experience next to Rose would help his already impressive transformation into an MVP caliber player. Keep in mind, having those two would give a lot of options. Scenarios for DRose bringing the ball up while Chauncey tries to break free of his mine would work equally well if Chauncey brought the ball up and let Rose work open.
3.) Don't overlook how perfect of a fit Chauncey is in that position on the Bulls either. Chauncey is a sniper outside, plays defense and maybe most importantly plays extremely smart.
If anyone questions Chauncey's willingness to relinquish point guard responsibilities, think about his situation in Denver. He already plays with a guy who probably handles the ball as much if not more than himself. Consider that DRose actually thinks about getting other guys involved, as opposed to Melo who seemingly is only concerned with himself.
It may be a stretch, it may not be even close to remotely possible, but maybe it would be exactly what they need.

Ephemeral Beauty
It never quite got warm enough today for the pool—and then at 6 o'clock or so, a thunderstorm powered through—poor homeward bound commuters got drenched in a fast and furious storm.
Then the sun re-emerged—and gave-by way of an apology—a lovely rainbow.
I ran down stairs to capture—and here is what I got...
At first the rainbow arced all the way across the sky.
But the clouds pushed in and soon it was just a partial arc...
But if not the biggest or brightest, it was for a while doubled.
Then just before it faded the colors got bright and fanned out even more...

Justin Bieber's ultra-chill collaboration with Drake and producer Hit-Boy, "Right Here," got a lyric video today (February 26). Many lyric videos look like they were pretty easy to make, but this is not one such lyric video. Featuring claymation words moving across a nighttime cityscape partly made up of giant speakers, it looks to have been a painstaking endeavor for the animators.
We're not even sure Bieber was alive when claymation was still a thing; regardless, the result is a pretty cool combination of retro animation and futuristic beats.

He wore the pink jersey at the Giro d'Italia and the red jersey at the Tour of Spain.
And he is all fired up for the 2013 season.
We are of course talking about Joaquim "Purito" Rodriguez, the exceptional Spanish rider in the Katusha World Tour Team.
Just a few days ago he won a stage at the Tirenno-Adriatico and today he'll be lining up for the start of the Tour of Catalonia with very big ambitions.
Even though Purito certainly won't be lacking in motivation we have provided him with a new Aeroad CF, which is sure to draw attention from fans and riders (hopefully who have been dropped by Purito) alike.
However we are especially pleased that we can offer you, our fans, something really quite special today.
What you can win:
You can go to the classic road race Liège-Bastogne-Liège and be right up close to both the Katusha team, and of course to Purito when the world's elite pro riders tackle "La Doyenne". Of course you also have the chance to meet Purito in person and immortalise this for your friends. Our Social Media Team will accompany you and experience pure bike sport with you. And of course, the costs for travel and accommodation will be covered by us.
We'll be holding a prize draw for all participants with more great prizes from Katusha and Canyon.
What you have to do:
As a pro sportsman the fans are the most important people to Purito. If you can prove to him that you are his biggest fan, then you are exactly the right person to scoop this great prize.
Send us a photograph or a drawing (max. 5 MB) that will show how passionate a fan you are and convince Purito. Use the e-mail address firstname.lastname@example.com and write in the subject line "I am Purito's biggest fan". Remember that the picture must be of you and you have the rights to use it.
By sending us your photo you allow us publish it on Facebook and on our other media channels such as Twitter and Canyon.com.
The closing date for entries is 3 April 2013. We reserve the right to exclude entries which contain offensive or inappropriate images. Canyon or Katusha employees are not permitted to take part and we are of course not able to pay out on any prizes.
What happens next?
We will regularly upload all the photos we receive into a Facebook album so you can see who has so to speak "come out"as a Purito fan. If you wish to have your Facebook name on your photo, then please explicitly state this in your e-mail when entering the competition. Purito will look at all the photos and select the fan who is most convincing and we will then announce the winner on all our media channels. As soon as this happens, we will contact you so that you don't need to do anything more than simply look forward to a truly fantastic experience.
We wish everyone who takes part in the competition the very best of luck!
The Canyon Team

Educator and attorney William Van Dusen, Jr. brings a focus on academic, professional and personal support for Clark College students
VANCOUVER, Wash. -- With a distinctive background in education and the law, William Van Dusen, Jr. is the new Director of Advising & Counseling at Clark College.
In his new role, Van Dusen, who resides in Portland, directs the Clark College advising department at Clark College. Van Dusen said his goals include "successfully developing ties among faculty, administration, and student services to provide Clark students with excellent academic, professional, and personal support."
Van Dusen noted, "Community colleges help students from all walks of life achieve their personal and professional goals through providing a comprehensive and supportive learning environment. This mission has always been near and dear to my heart and it is what initially drew me to Clark College. During my time here, I have come to realize that the students, faculty, and staff at Clark College are a living testimony of that mission. I am proud to be a part of such a great group of dedicated people."
Studying at the University of Colorado at Boulder, Van Dusen earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in pre-law/philosophy and a master's degree in philosophy. He earned his law degree (JD) at the University of Denver's College of Law.
As an attorney in Colorado, he opened his own practice in Longmont, going on to serve as the Deputy District Attorney of Walsenburg, Assistant City Attorney in Arvada, and Assistant Attorney General in Denver.
His interest in education continued throughout that time. As an assistant and associate professor, he taught classes in philosophy, arts and humanities, business ethics, jurisprudence and criminal justice classes for Regis University, Metropolitan State College of Denver, Front Range Community College, and the Community College of Denver.
From 1986-1996, he served as Director of Recruitment for the Community College of Denver. From 1997-1999, he was Assistant to the Dean of Student Services at Front Range Community College in Boulder. From 2000-2007, Van Dusen was the Assistant Director of Advising for Regis University's School for Professional Studies and was appointed as Interim Director of Student Services in 2006. From 2004 to 2006, he served as a chair of the Small Colleges and Universities commission of the National Academic Advising Association (NACADA).
With expertise on the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), Van Dusen published Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act: A step-by-step approach for compliance. (P. Folsom & B. Chamberlain, Eds.).
His contributions to professional publications also include The New Advisor Guidebook: Mastering the art of advising through the first year and beyond (Monograph No. 16) (pp. 93-96). Manhattan, KS: National Academic Advising Association.
EDITORS' NOTE: Regis University is located in Denver, Colorado. Front Range Community College is located in Westminster, Colorado with campuses in Boulder County, Brighton and Larimer.

I walked into a room full of in person strangers… online friends… and immediately knew I was at home. Immediately I felt welcomed into a group of sisters that little did I know, would change my life. Among them was Deborah Zoe. Her spirit and joy radiated throughout the room and I knew I'd found a friend for life. When I asked if people would share their experience from the Pursuit 31 retreat she was the first to jump at the chance. Admittedly I was not prepared for what she shared. She made me laugh, and cry, and instantly feel like I was back in that cozy New England living room. Love you girl… I couldn't be more thankful to have you in my life.
xoxo Karen
So without further ado….The adorable Deborah Zoe ~
When my friend Alicia first told me that I needed to attended a Pursuit 31 retreat I was hesitant. Would it be worth my time away? Would it be worth my investment? Would it be right for me? Alicia had graciously offered to host a Pursuit 31 retreat in New Haven and was confident that I had to attend. I had never met Karen before and had only seen glimpses of what Pursuit 31 was so when Alicia originally asked me to go, I said no.
But no wasn't good enough for Alicia. She persisted, and finally with the offer of free night away and some prayer, I decided that the right decision would be to go.
I remember that first night as we all gathered together for a pre-retreat meet and greet. A group of woman from all over the Eastern Seaboard, sitting around a small table in a cafe. We exchanged names, where we were from and I sheepishly nibbled on my sandwiches. I remember thinking, "Did I make a mistake? Should I really be here?" The night ended with hugs and smiles and promises to chat more in the coming days.
The morning of the retreat Karen sat in the living room of the grand home we were meeting at, greeting each girl by name as they entered. Her warmth filled the room as the women gathered around the fire place. I fully expected to jump right into the workshop but instead we began to introduce ourselves. I sat back and listened as each woman shared their heart. Their honesty, their passion, their humility, their love of Jesus, struck me to the core. Immediately all of my walls came crumbling down. In that moment, as we shared life together, I knew that this was exactly where I was supposed to be. As we prayed, worshiped and shared our faith together, I knew that this was something unique. This was something special.
I've attended photography workshops before, but never had I been struck so powerfully as I was by the Pursuit 31 retreat. I had never been given the opportunity to explore my faith and my gifting together. This retreat was completely different. This was a place for us to be free. Free to be unique in Christ, free to be who we truly were. God worked powerfully through those two days we spent together. I regained focus for my business and found a new confidence of the woman I am in Christ . I met some wonderful women who I now call dear friends and I'm so thankful I had the opportunity to be there.
I'm a firm believer that things happen for a reason. I'm so thankful for the way that God orchestrated circumstances so that I could attend the Pursuit 31 retreat. It was a life changing event that has shaped my future as a business woman. Looking back as I asked the question "Should I really be here?", I can confidently answer YES
We are only doing 2… maybe 3 Retreats in ALL of 2012!
Houston on April 4th
San Diego on June 17th and
Indianapolis on July 11th.
I could not be more thrilled and I know that God has directed us to each of these cities this year. For more information on the retreats please visit. Pursuit 31′s website

The main event of UFC 135 tonight (Sept. 24, 2011) at the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colorado, featured one of the most highly anticipated light heavyweight match-ups in recent memory, as reigning division champion Jon Jones made his first title defense against number one contender Quinton Jackson.
Before the fight there were allegations of spying, talk of cockiness and, of course, the proverbial promise that someone's head was going to get knocked off. By fight time, most odds had the champion as high as a -900 favorite. In a championship fight at the highest levels of the sport, that was considered ridiculous.
Turns out, not so much.
That's because Jones proved worthy of all the hype by imposing his will and defending his title for the very first time at the unbelievable age of 24 by submitting "Rampage" in the fourth round.
Were you watching, Rashad Evans?
Jones came out with a goofy strategy. He kept one hand on the ground and circled like a spider before shooting for a takedown, one Jackson immediately stuffed. It quickly led to a clinch against the cage, though, where Jones went to work.
The pace was slow in the opening round, with both men maintaining and even keel while picking their spots to attack. Reach was definitely a problem for "Rampage," who struggled to find his way inside.
One round was in the books and neither fighter held a big edge.
They raced to the center of the cage to open the second and both men got aggressive, exerting the will of the champions they are and were. Still, patience was key, and both competitors utilized it as best they could. Openings were rare and no energy could go wasted.
Jackson was clearly looking for the proper time to counter, but Jones length negated this strategy tenfold. Color commentator Joe Rogan called for "Rampage" to "bum rush" his opponent, a call that went ignored as they headed into the third round.
Sweat gleaning from their bodies, the two Octagon warriors continued their chess match. If "Rampage" had a pawn or two, "Bones" took a rook with a takedown straight into side control. And just like that, he took the other by exploding into full mount with minutes still to go in the round.
Jackson responded with a power play by bucking his way out and getting back to his feet against the fence. He didn't do so without visibly showing the damage that had been done, however, as blood flowed freely near his right eye.
The champion controlled the stand-up, dictating the pace and owning the distance usually reserved for the seasoned veterans of the sport. He juked and jived his way to the championship rounds with an ease not seen since Anderson Silva was last plying his trade inside the cage.
"Rampage" looked tired -- and insulted -- heading into the fourth round. "Bones," meanwhile, was relaxed, calm as a kitten.
Jackson pushed forward early in the frame but ate a left hook for his troubles. It wasn't long before Jones asserted his dominance one again by physically overwhelming Jackson, taking his back and locking in a rear-naked choke that forced a tap.
"Rampage" Jackson tapped to a submission from Jon Jones. Who would have thought?
Can anyone stop this man?

HITS from Darksteel
by Jeff Zandi
Mirrodin/Darksteel sealed deck
PTQ season is three weeks old.
Next week, if we all keep our
fingers crossed, Magic Online
will add Darksteel. This is a
good time to talk about what
cards in Darksteel are the best
for limited play in sealed deck
and draft formats. To this end,
I have assembled my top ten
lists for commons and uncommons.
Decisions about rares are less
crucial because you have so many
less of them. After discussing
the ten best commons and the ten
best uncommons in the set for
limited play, there are a few
Darksteel cards that I think are
a little underrated. I also want
to talk a tiny bit after that
about cards to avoid.
10 - Arcbound
Hybrid's ability to attack the
same turn he comes into play
makes him the best common
modular creature in my opinion.
Arcbound Bruiser at 3/3 is a
great modular creature, but you
can only have so many five
casting cost cards in your deck,
and this makes the Bruiser less
cool. Arcbound Stinger is a neat
1/1 modular flyer for just two
mana, but he also just misses
the cut.
9 - Echoing Decay
is solid removal for black.
What's important is not that it
COULD give you two (or more) for
one card advantage by hitting
multiple targets with the same
name. What's important is that
Echoing Decay is an instant that
can kill annoying early game
creatures EVEN if they are
8 - Tel-Jilad Outrider is a
great bridge between the two
casting cost Tel-Jilad Chosen
and the five casting cost Tel-Jilad
Archers. Green players in
Mirrodin limited LOVE the
artifact resistant creatures.
Though the Outrider is probably
a distant third to either the
Chosen or the Archers, it is an
important card that green
drafters can pick up with the
middle or late picks of the
Darksteel pack.
7 - Chittering
Rats is an awesome Bear that
"Time Walks" all over your
opponent by setting him back a
turn. Multiple Rats in a deck
could be very annoying for your
opponent. Mix in any kind of
bounce, especially Crystal Shard
and Chittering Rats becomes
completely BROKEN.
6 - Essence Drain
is a drain life like effect that
very efficiently deals three
damage to a creature or player
for five mana. Because it only
requires one black mana to cast,
this Drain is comfortably
5 - Neurok
Prodigy is a two power flyer
that can be very difficult to
get rid of. Against an opponent
with few or no flyers, the
Prodigy will probably win you
the game. You won't always have
an artifact that you want to
discard to bounce the Neurok
Prodigy back to your hand, but
when you are able to throw away
a late game Myr or Talisman that
you didn't really need anyway to
effectively counter one of your
opponent's PRECIOUS removal
spells, you will really
appreciate the power of this
card. This card would probably
be quite playable in the current
format even if it was just a 2/1
flyer for 2U with no special
4 - Vedalken
Engineer out Myrs the Myrs.
While the Engineer costs the
same as a Myr (in a blue deck)
it taps for TWO of any color
mana (unlike the one colorless
from a Myr). The catch is that
you have to use the two colored
mana from the Engineer to play
an artifact or to pay for an
activated ability of an
artifact. This isn't much of a
limitation in The Artifact Block
that is Mirrodin/Darksteel. This
card can be SUPER ACCELERATION.
3 - Leonin Bola
looks a little boring, and I
have to admit that equipping
creatures with it every turn
does turn into a grind, but
there is no arguing that this
card is almost a common Icy
Manipulator for one mana.
2 - Echoing Ruin
is simply a sorcery-speed
Shatter most of the time. In
Mirrodin, more artifact kill is
always better. Sometimes,
however, Echoing Ruin can wipe
out multiple Myr or artifact
lands on your opponent's side,
swinging the game greatly in
your favor.
1 - Vulshok
Morningstar is the common that
is the least likely to be passed
in the last pack of a
Mirrodin/Darksteel draft. This
card fits perfectly between
Leonin Scimitar and Vulshok
Battlegear and is probably
better than both. This is the
best common in the set for
limited play.
I hate to leave
any discussion of Darksteel
commons without mentioning the
five Golems in the set. My
favorite is the Razor Golem that
attacks without tapping,
followed by the flying Spire
Golem, the Haste-y Oxidda Golem,
the 3/2 Dross Golem (with Fear)
and the 5/4 Tangle Golem.
Noted draft expert Neil Reeves
says that there is a simple rule
for using the Golems. If you
have any Golems that have
Affinity for either of the major
two colors in your deck, you
must play them. If you are not
playing a significant number of
the basic lands for which a
particular Golem has Affinity,
you should not play it. That's
strong advice that I have taken
very much to heart, even though
I still sometimes play Spire
Golem in a deck without Islands.
10 – Dismantle
destroys an artifact for 2R.
This is solid removal for a fair
price if all this card did was
destroy an artifact. However, if
the artifact destroyed had
charge counters or +1/+1
counters, you get to move them
onto the creature of your
choice. This card counters the
power of your opponent's modular
creatures by allowing you a way
to destroy one of them without
your opponent gaining the
advantage of the dead modular
creature's counters.
9 - Vulshok War
Boar walks on land, but as my
pal Jonathan Pechon said, this
creature is REALLY a dragon.
This 5/5 BEAST can drop on turn
three VERY often and can end
games all by himself.
8 - Emmisary of
Despair attacks for two. If it
hits you, you lose a life for
each artifact you have in play.
How many artifacts might you
have in play by as early as turn
four? Could be a lot. This card
would deserve a higher rating if
it didn't cost 1BB to play. If
you aren't already playing heavy
black after drafting two packs
of Mirrodin, I doubt you should
be drafting this card and trying
to squeeze it into your deck.
7 - Carry Away
disconnects an opponent's
equipment from any creature it
may have been equipping, then
Carry Away, er, carries that
piece of equipment away to your
side of the board. The only
thing better than destroying
equipment is stealing it and
using it yourself. The double
blue casting cost of this card
does hold it back a little bit,
making it non-splashable.
6 - Darksteel
Gargoyle performs a very similar
function in limited as the rare
Platinum Angel. In fact, I
probably prefer the Gargoyle.
This creature is largely
indestructible. I USED to think
he was indestructible, but since
I've lost EVERY Darksteel
Gargoyle that I've had in play
to Irradiate sooner or later,
I've learned that this card is
only LARGELY indestructible. He
is still very good. Only the
seven mana casting cost keeps
him from being a lot higher on
this list.
5 - Stir the
Pride is the card that a lot of
people are calling the white
Grab the Reins. For an entwined
cost of 5WW, all your creatures
gain +2/+2 and the Spirit Link
ability until end of turn. This
will be the last card you play
in many games that you win. Easy
to play and easy to fit into one
of the more popular colors in
Mirrodin limited play.
4 – Spawning Pit
is the uncommon that you can't
believe isn't a rare. Some of
your creatures are going to die,
it just can't be helped. With
this card on your side, you can
turn today's creature losses
into tomorrow's NEW creatures.
Basically, you can get a shiny
new 2/2 token for every two
creatures that you sacrifice to
the Pit. This may be the best
Magic card ever with "Pit" in
its name.
3 - Murderous
Spoils is the fraternal twin to
Mirrodin's Betrayal of Flesh. B
to the F let you destroy any
creature, even a black creature,
and return one of your creatures
from the graveyard to play at
the same time. Murderous Spoils'
benefits may not be that
dramatic, but they are dramatic
just the same. Most of the time,
I find myself using this card
much more for the STEAL
EQUIPMENT effect and less for
the destroy creature effect.
Very, very powerful, this card
is also splashable in most draft
2 – Fireball is
that old girlfriend that forgot
how much you liked until she
wanders back into your life. Of
course, it feels more like a
nightmare when you have your
opponent almost knocked out when
he top decks Fireball, taps all
his mana, points it at you and
says "good game". This is the
most unbalanced card in Mirrodin
limited. Which, of course, means
you should draft it and play it
EVERY TIME you get the chance.
Fireball has been ending games
since the whole thing began ten
years ago.
1 – Skullclamp is
still the best card in the set.
In fact, it's the best card in
Mirrodin OR Darksteel. This card
does it all. It's cheap to cast,
cheap to use, makes Spikeshot
Goblin better and turns every
late game Myr into two free
cards. You should probably never
pass this card in drafts.
There are a
number of Darksteel cards that I
feel people are overlooking in
sealed deck and booster drafts.
Here are five of them, in no
particular order.
Darksteel Ingot
DOES cost three, making it less
attractive than the Talisman
cards from Mirrodin for the
purpose of creating mana. On the
other hand, the Darksteel Ingot
is indestructible and creates
mana of any color without
causing you to take damage for
the privilege.
makes ALL of your creatures
unblockable as long as your
opponent has a non-basic land in
play. Wow. The most powerful
limited decks are those with
heavy doses of artifact
Affinity. These decks go out of
their way to include artifact
lands, even off color ones.
Behemoth is a giant fatty for
blue decks with any level of
artifact Affinity. In decks with
a lot of Affinity, this card can
get sick, turning its "drawback"
of returning to your hand after
attacking or blocking into an
advantage. With a lot of
artifacts in play, it's no big
deal to be able to attack with
this big man and then replay him
to have him back on your side
untapped and ready to block.
Darksteel Pendant
is a cheap piece of Flood
Insurance. This card lets you
look at and potentially move the
top card of your library to the
bottom of your deck. This
ability to veto the top card of
your deck can be very good. Late
game, it's VERY fun to hardly
ever draw land when you want
action cards.
Machinate is no
Impulse, but in blue/red
Affinity decks, it can get you
to that Fireball a lot faster,
allowing you to finish your
matches faster.
Without going
into too many details, here are
a few cards I think you should
avoid in limited play. I think
Chimeric Egg is a little too
iffy since you have to wait for
multiple non-artifact cards to
played by your opponent before
this card does anything. Second
Sight lets you look at a lot of
cards, but since it puts exactly
ZERO of them in your hand, you
can't afford to give it a place
in your deck. Scrounge fills
your brain with all kinds of
great visions of moving your
opponent's best artifact from
his graveyard to your side of
the table. In reality, this
three casting cost black sorcery
will net you a Myr more often
than anything else and is far
too iffy for the best limited
decks. Specter's Shroud looks
like it turns every one of your
creatures into a Hypnotic
Specter. Maybe. If you get it in
play early and can get it onto
an evasive creature and your
opponent doesn't have a blocker.
All in all, this card is only
good as a +1/+0 piece of
equipment that MIGHT let you
bust up an opponent every once
in a while.

text: 11th Circuit: 'Carryover Consent' Theory in FLSA Collective Actions Rejected By Lawrence Peikes and Meghan D. Burns 5/16/2008 The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals blocked employees' attempt to use consent forms filed in a previously dismissed collective action wage and hour case as authorization to pursue nearly identical lawsuits. In 2000, 12 former and current employees of Cagle's Inc. and Equity Group-Georgia Division LLC brought a collective action under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), seeking compensation for time spent "donning" (i.e., putting on) and "doffing" (i.e., removing) protective clothing they were required to wear while working on the chicken processing line (the "Anderson litigation"). In accordance with the FLSA's procedural requirements for collective actions, plaintiffs' counsel sent notices of the suit to all affected current and former Cagle's and Equity Group employees together with a "consent to become a party plaintiff" form. The form notified the employees of the Anderson litigation and sought their individual consent to pursue the FLSA claims alleged in that case on their behalf. Approximately 1,800 opt-in plaintiffs completed a consent form and eventually participated in the Anderson litigation. After discovery was completed, the district court granted the defendants' motion to sever the claims against them and to decertify the collective action. Cagle's Inc. then settled with the named plaintiffs and the district court granted Equity Group's motion for summary judgment, thereby bringing the Anderson litigation to a conclusion. Approximately two months after the district court issued its decertification order in the Anderson litigation, the attorneys representing the plaintiffs in that action filed two substantially identical complaints against the same defendants. The new cases were titled Albritton v. Cagle's Inc. and Abdullah v. Equity Group-Georgia Division LLC. Both suits were purportedly initiated on behalf of several hundred employees and former employees, all of whom were former opt-in Anderson litigation plaintiffs. Moreover, the complaints alleged the same facts and made the same claims as were raised in the Anderson litigation and invoked the FLSA's collective action provision, 29 U.S.C. §216(b). Section 216(b) of the FLSA provides that no employee may be a "party plaintiff" in an FLSA collective action until the employee's written consent is filed with the court where the action is pending. Because plaintiffs' attorneys did not file the requisite consent forms in either of the two new cases, the district court granted defendants' motions to dismiss each case for failure to comply with Section 216(b). On appeal, plaintiffs asserted that the Anderson litigation consent forms "carried over" to the subsequent lawsuits. The 11th Circuit decided that the forms satisfied Section 216(b)'s written consent requirement because the letters were sent to the Anderson litigation opt-in plaintiffs, offering them the opportunity to opt out of the subsequent lawsuits. The court noted that plaintiffs' theory, if accepted, would effectively convert Section 216(b)'s opt-in requirement to an opt-out procedure. The 11th Circuit noted, moreover, that the Anderson litigation consent form was narrowly crafted to authorize participation in that particular suit only. The district court's determination that plaintiffs' counsel had not complied with Section 216(b)'s collective action procedures was therefore affirmed. Albritton v. Cagle's Inc., 11th Cir., C.A. No. 06-15612 (Nov. 30, 2007). Professional Pointer: This case should be a reminder of the important role the employer plays in the opt-in process. It is imperative that the FLSA collective action defendant carefully examine the language of the consent form to verify that only the lawsuit at issue is being authorized and not FLSA suits generally. FLSA collective actions are fast becoming the new bane of existence for employers. Cases like Albritton offer some modest degree of comfort. Lawrence Peikes and Meghan D.

Two more items regarding the Stoneridge (a.k.a. Charter Communications) case on scheme liability:
(1) Although Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Breyer initially recused themselves from the case because of personal stockholdings, the New York Law Journal reports that they may be back in time for the argument (scheduled for October 9, 2007). Under a new federal law, the justices could sell their stockholdings and, because the sale was done to resolve a conflict of interest, defer any capital gains tax. The article speculates that Chief Justice Roberts may have rejoined a case earlier this year, the day before oral argument, by resolving a conflict through a stock sale.
Quote of note: "'The justices who recused are - I don't want to use the term - business-friendly,' said Stephen Bainbridge, who participated in a brief that opposed the investors' broad liability theory. But Mr. Bainbridge, a professor at UCLA School of Law, said the Court can be especially unpredictable in securities cases, because the justices and their law clerks are 'institutionally incompetent' to resolve complex securities cases. 'I would never count the chickens before they hatch,' he said."
(2) The WSJ Law Blog has a post on the large number of amicus briefs that have been filed in the case.
Quote of note: "At final count, about 30 'friend of the court' briefs (aka amicus briefs) were filed with the court in Stoneridge, which asks whether shareholders can sue to hold third parties — e.g., investment banks, accountants and law firms — liable for a company's fraud. It's a 'startling' number of friend-of-the-court briefs for a securities-law case, says Tom Goldstein, a Supreme Court practitioner at Akin Gump, not involved in the case."Posted by Lyle Roberts at August 22, 2007 5:54 PM | TrackBack

i hate the bears and i really hope they suck this year, but nobody can look past them. some things to think about with the bears.
first off, new coaches. lovie smith has his work cut out for him but the bears defense was already a pretty good unit before he came on board and under him they should improve. they will still give up some big plays, but they will keep the team in most games. also their new off. coordinator, terry shea had a winning system in kansas city. he also had more talent there than chicago but if there is anybody that can guide rex grossman through the complex new offensive schemes it is shea. also, i have heard a lot of people say thomas jones was a bad pickup for the bears. yeah he hasn't done much but in chicago's new system he will be doing a lot of different things including catching a lot of passes which he has shown he can do. i think the problem for jones has been the system he plays in, neither arizona or tampa bay were suited to his skills. chicago looks better for him.
as far as their final record, who cares? the bears could go 3-13 but pull off one major upset against the vikings or packers that ends up making a difference in who wins the division. and since it probably won't take that many wins to get the nfc north title, every divisional game will be critical.

Dear Fellow Buffalo Bills Fans,
Remember Gronk? When he was drafted after Troup? I do. I know you do too. We all look back and say "how did we miss this guy?"
Here is a shot at redemption. A WNY guy is entering this draft and has really good upside. I haven't seen him mentioned on this site but I threw him in my mock draft to the Bills. If none of you know who J.C is, I thought I'd give you guys a sneak peak. An Akron boy standing 6'4 304 who played LT at Cornell and projects to Guard in the NFL.
Click here for an interview on WIVB pre-combine.
Click here for a story from the Buffalo News.

We don't know whether he will be selected by the Bills or not in the draft, but he does fit a need on the team. Let's all cheer for J.C. when he is selected and wish him nothing but the best at his shot at NFL stardom!
Hopefully it's with the Bills!
If you guys got more video, information or news on J.C. feel free to post it here and wish him good luck!
As always, thanks for reading and on this fanpost more than any other I look forward to your comments!

text: NBA commissioner David Stern was reported to step down to "spent more time with family". It was reported this morning on the What We All Want To Happen News that former NBA Referee Tim Donaghy has threatened to relaease a recording that was given to a referee crew right before a "specific game" for certain calls and rule should be disregarded "for a certain player on a certain team" in a playoffs series. Rumor has it that Donaghy demanded that Stern step down as commissioner and have him to replace Stern or Donaghy will release the recording to the players and front office executives. Sources close to the situation are saying that they are glad that Stern is leaving. One unnamed source said," I'm glad that douchebag is gone. Now there can be parity in our league and we don't have to worry about referees fucking over certain teams because they aren't the Lakers." When asked if Donaghy would do a good job the source replied,"Anyone could do a better job than that piece of crab David Stern. Finally he is being exposed for the fraud that he is."

'Bobbies on beat and public help are key to reducing crime' - Gwent Police
9:58am Friday 19th October 2012 in News
Gwent sees
● Biggest drop in crime in England and Wales
● Fourth successive fall
● Fraud down 43%
● Robbery down 31%
● Burglary down 22%
GWENT Police posted the biggest drop in recorded crime in England and Wales during the year to June, new figures show, with an 18 per cent overall reduction.
The fall of more than 8,000 incidents compared to the year to June 2011, is the equivalent of 21 fewer crimes every day.
Gwent is among the leading forces in reducing crimes such as violence, robbery, burglary, fraud and forgery, and theft.
However drug offences continue to rise, with a 19 per cent increase in Gwent, the second highest of the 43 police forces in England and Wales.
This is the fourth quarter in a row in which the Gwent force area has seen the biggest or joint biggest fall in overall crime, year-on-year.
The figures, issued by the Home Office, show reductions across a range of crimes, with 36,499 crimes committed, compared to 44,294 in the 12 months to June 2011.
Gwent Assistant Chief Constable Simon Prince, said the figures are "another endorsement of our flexible and innovative approach to tackling crime" that has a strong emphasis on neighbourhood policing and education of the general public on crime prevention.
Gwent also recorded the biggest drop in England and Wales in offences of criminal damage, and car theft and other offences against vehicles.
The increase in recorded drugs offences is worrying, but Mr Prince said this is an indicator that police operations, using information provided by the public, are having an effect.
"If people continue to provide us with information we will continue to a identify, arrest and put drug dealers in front of the courts," said Mr Prince.
"I'm conscious that the figures will be of little comfort to those who have been victims of crime or anti-social behaviour.
"However would like to reassure those people who have been affected by crime, we are on your side, and we will continue to work hard to target criminals.
"I stick to the assertion that I have made previously that every Gwent resident has the right to feel safe, and be safe, in their community."
Chief pays tribute to officers
THE fall in recorded crime is a tribute to the hard work of officers and staff, and to people's efforts on prevention and reporting wrongdoers, says Assistant Chief Constable Prince.
He highlighted the system of Neighbourhood Policing Teams and extra police community support officers (PCSOs) as having enabled Gwent Police to maintain a regular and visible presence on the area's streets.
"People like to see officers they know and trust and they start to build up relationships with them," he said. "In addition to the police and partner agencies, Gwent residents must again take credit for this improved performance. More and more residents are providing us with information about the small minority of people who commit crimes in our communities and we are then able to take action."
He added that a drop in anti-social behaviour has also been recorded across Gwent, with around 8,000 fewer reported incidents in the year to June.
"I'm very proud of the performance of Gwent officers and staff, but given the budget reductions we are facing, their hard work and dedication is even more impressive."
THE latest figures indicate that, across Gwent:
● Burglary was down 22 per cent (1,448 fewer offences);
● Robbery was down 31 per cent (60 fewer victims);
● Vehicle crime was down 31 per cent (1,860 fewer offences);
● Criminal damage was down 21 per cent (1,816 fewer offences);
● Violence against the person was down 17 per cent (1,361 fewer offences);
● There was a 10 per cent drop in reported sexual offences, a 43 per cent drop in fraud and forgery, and a 15 per cent drop in offences categorised as 'other'.
COMMENT: In praise of our police
SOMETHING is going very right with policing in Gwent and, in our view, it is definitely worth shouting about.
We are talking of course about the 18 per cent fall in recorded crime in Gwent, revealed in the latest Home Office figures.
In fact, Gwent Police posted the biggest drop in recorded crime in England and Wales during the year to June.
That is an incredible achievement and, given that it is one which comes on the back of other successes, is doubly impressive.
This is the fourth quarter in a row in which the Gwent force has seen the biggest, or joint biggest, fall in overall crime year-on-year.
Gwent Police focus very much on what they term neighbourhood policing.
In other words the police officers in any given area are visible in the community, become well known and are contactable. They also help educate about crime prevention.
In many areas partnerships have been forged with other organisations so people from different walks of life can all contribute to the wider aim of creating safer communities.
That also seems to be a winning formula.
There are concerns of course, such as the rise in drug offences. But today let us concentrate on the many positives.
Crime is down by thousands of incidents a year – good news for us all. Gwent Police deserve to be commended.

Do they have similar success in persuading others to stop short of reporting crime because a) they say there is no chance of recovery and b) there is no chance of prosecution?
If you don't accept crime reports, then obviously, the figures will go down.

The report clearly states "Reported Crime, and "recorded Crime" are down. How many readers have suffered minor crimes and left them unreported ?. How often do crimes get reported but not recorded ?. It is with regret that I can speak on both counts with some authority.
It is because the police service throughout the UK and the Home Office have "massaged" these figures over the years that police funds and personnel are being cut in this time of finacial defecit. If crime is down and the local forces have to make further savings it makes common sense to cut back on officers.
If the true extent of crime had been recorded over the years then even with financial constraints it would be professional suicide to start cutting resources.
It is a known fact that when a society enters financial depression the crime rate rises proportionately.
However, drug offences have increased, clearly some people are "dealing" to subsedise their income then. I suppose at least if the figures are to believed they are dealing to otherwise law abiding citizens who have well paid jobs and a disposable income.
We no longer have so many heroin addicts without financial means that they feel the need to commit theft, burglary or robbery to subsedise their addiction.
"Tough on crime, tough on the causes of crime" was once the magic bullet, did the Home Office never believe in being tough on the truethful recording of crime.

Crime is not falling. However, police out of court disposals have increased astronomically both for adults and youths. The police now act as judge & jury, they have no national guidelines to follow and what is prosecuted in one part of the country may be disposed of by reprimand from the constable in another.
Where is the justice in that?

Loads of crime still happens , just nobody can be bothered to report it because nobody gets caught and when they do its a slap on the wrist from the judge , Whats the point?
I know I am cynical about this, but they can work the crime figures to reflect well on them.
Some misdemeanours are not even considered criminal anymore.

Agree with all the correspondents. Crime is not falling. However, police out of court disposals have increased astronomically both for adults and youths. The police now act as judge & jury, they have no national guidelines to follow and what is prosecuted in one part of the country may be disposed of by reprimand from the constable in another.

Years ago, they would have 'stuck their
neck out' and had a go.
Restrained by money pressures and overcrowded prisons, they are unable to do that anymore.

It is about showing you how 'small' an ice berg is when in reality the truth is that 90% remains hidden. People get taken in every day of our lives with slick marketing and advertisements and believe what they are told. Wake up.
