With so many holes on the roster the Jets need to fill, most of which will be through the draft given our salary cap situation. I'm assuming that we're not going to trade Revis or Trade our 9th pick for simplicities sake, so without further ado:
Round 1
Barkevious Mingo OLB, LSU
With Taylor Lewan and Jake Mathews are going back to school and Luke Joeckel likely falling out of our reach the Jets are unlikely to draft in the offensive line, Jarvis Jones and Geno Smith are also likely are out of reach as well. Mingo seems better than Dion Jordan to me because of his speed and athleticism (and let's face it anyone is better than Calvin Pace at this point). He will be a big upgrade at OLB and even if we can't get him Dion Jordan or even Ziggy Ansah are great options, either way we're going to get a good OLB to bolster our poor run defense.
Round 2
Giovani Bernard RB, North Carolina
As much as I would love to have Eddie Lacy from the Alabama he's probably not going to be able to fall to us seeing the other teams that don't have good running backs (Green Bay, Detroit, Arizona, Broncos even) so we're going to have to go for the second best running back in the draft. With Shonn Greene probably out (good riddance) and both McKnight and Powell not being starting-caliber players we need a starting RB. Bernard is a RB too perfect to pass up, He's explosive and Elusive and reminds me of LeSean McCoy, and he'll fit perfectly into Morhinweg's system as he has pretty good hands. If we can't get him Stepfan Taylor from Stanford would be another good option.
Round 3
E. J. Manuel QB, Florida State
Even though my signature says "Mark Sanchez for comeback player of the year" That wish is unlikely to be fulfilled and even if it is the Jets will probably bench him anyway when they get the chance to. Despite a strong performance, the Senior Bowl MVP still has his inconsistencies, it will depend on his upcoming performance to see if his draft stock rises or falls in the coming months. He struggles to read defenses and his field vision is a bit low sometimes (remind you of someone?). However he's physicality is fantastic at 6' 5" and 240 lb., having a great arm, and plus he's mobile too. Unlike Sanchez he's had four years under his belt, completing 65% of his passes, had 41 TD's to 18 INT's. His draft status is comparable to what Collin Kaepernick was 2 years ago. If we do draft him we can get the dynamic offense we were promised by Rex Ryan with him and Giovani Bernard. On a hypothetical note, let's say Mark Sanchez does have a comeback player of the year, year it'll be just like the 49ers we'll be able to start EJ Manuel in his second year and Trade Mark Sancehez to some team that needs a QB or backup QB.
Round 4
Ryan Otten TE, San Jose State
Dustin Keller is an Average TE and is only worthwhile because of his chemistry with Sanchez and plus he's probably going to ask for way more than he's worth next year in free agency so we're going to need an athletic receiving TE that will fit into Morhinweg's new system. He's speedy and has great size at 6'5" 235 lbs. If we could get him it would be a good addition to our receiving core. When it comes to blocking he is slightly sub-par, howeverwe could improve his blocking over time but while we wait Jeff Cumberland is a satisfactory TE for blocking.
Round 5
Marcus Davis WR, Virginia Tech
I've heard a lot about the Jets taking Tyrann Mathieu in this round but I just don't like having that kind of presence in the locker room and plus I think he'll be taken before we could get him. So Let's break down the receiving core situation shall we? On the bad we have Santonio Holmes coming off a Lisfranc injury which he may never recover from, plus he may get cut in the future as he's grossly over-paid and we have Stephen Hill who is a project with a lot of potential that we still haven't tapped and has a bit of an injury bug, on the good we have Jeremy Kerley and hopefully Braylon Edwards who may be able to help Hill develop. While Braylon would be nice to have in our receiving core I don't think he has much gas left in the tank to be starter for much longer especially considering the hamstring problems that have hindered him for the past 2 years. So the only receiver we are guaranteed to get high production out of is the slot receiver Kerley with no outside guys. With that we'll need a good outside receiver. Marcus Davis similar to Santonio Holmes: he has great agility and pretty good speed, he has good hands (unlike Stephen Hill) and he's usually a good blocker. My problems with him is I said he's a good blocker, usually, when he's not trying to block his effort is atrocious sometimes giving up huge run play(s), also he's only been a one year starter so we don't have a good pool of data to pluck from, and finally he's been a much simpler offense than the NFL's which may take some time to learn. But I feel the pros in his athleticism and big play making ability way outweigh his cons which can be ironed out during training camp or early in the season. I think deeper into the future Davis, Stephen Hill, and Kerley, along with our future receivers will be a great receiving core.
Round 6
Omoregie Uzzi OG, Georgia Tech
You may be thinking that I'm addressing the offensive line issue a bit late but I'm not, OG's tend to fly off the draft board a little slower than most other positions. With Brandon Moore or Matt Slauson probably leaving (preferably neither but what's the likeliness of that happening) we'll need a new guard as Vlad Ducasse is definitely not ready to be a starter or at least not without some competition. Omoregie Uzzi is not Chance Warmick, but the Jets are likely not going draft Chance as the OLB position is a bigger need to fill. Omoregie Uzzi was an important part of Georgia Tech's top 4 Run Blocking O-line and could be a viable replacement for Moore or Slauson while maybe rotating in and out with Vlad Ducasse.
Round 7
Cameron Lawrence OLB Mississipi State
Garret McIntyre is better than Bryan Thomas but he isn't great and the Jets could probably use someone in rotation with him in order to get maximum production out of our OLB's. Cameron Lawrence is aggressive and will help us block up the run, he does struggle with pass protection though but that's why we rotate him in with McIntyre. Even if he doesn't pan out we do still have McIntyre and Lawrence can contribute on special teams.
Idea for Defense: Switch to a 4-3 Defense full time
I'm hoping we can resign Mike Devito as he's versatile, a good presence in the locker room, and very loyal to the team as I've heard in the SNY interviews. If we keep him, we have way more talent of the D-Line than we will in the Linebacking Core, we could have Mo' Wilkerson and Quinton Coples at DE, have Mike Devito rotate between DE and DT and have Sione Pouha and Kenrick Ellis at full time DT. As of now I don't think we have or will have the OLB's to have a 3-4 defense.

The North Las Vegas City Council voted unanimously to suspend contracts with the four unions that represent its workers. "The goal of the resolution is to keep the city's labor costs flat for fiscal year 2013," said City Manager Tim Hacker.
North Las Vegas tried to negotiate concessions with the four unions but failed to reach an agreement with any of the unions. "We will look at our options and decide what we will do next week," said Police Union Chief Michael Yarter.
City Attorney Jeff Barr said the council has the right to take whatever steps are necessary to protect the city and its residents under Nevada Revised Statue 288. "You as City Council have the inherent authority and the statutory authority to protect the health, safety and welfare of your citizens," he told the council.
Hacker said North Las Vegas is in a fiscal emergency and by voting to suspend existing union contracts it will help close the $30 million budget shortfall for fiscal year ending in 2013.
The unions have threatened to take the city to court if they voted in favor of the resolution.

San Diego Chargers
Corey Liuget - #94 - DE
|6' 2"/ 300 lbs.
|Miami, FL
|Years played
|2011, 1st round, 18th pick by Chargers
Chargers add TE depth behind Gates
The Chargers have reached a one-year deal with TE Dante Rosario, creating more depth behind starter Antonio Gates.
Chargers re-sign TE McMichael
The Chargers have re-signed TE Randy McMichael, keeping a valuable run blocker and receiver on their roster.
Chargers add S Bigby
The Chargers, who lost S Steve Gregory in free agency to the Patriots earlier in the week, have compensated for it by signing free-agent S Atari Bigby.
Whitehurst returns to Chargers
After two failed seasons in Seattle, QB Charlie Whitehurst is returning to the team that drafted him in 2006, San Diego, which then cut veteran QB Billy Volek.
Chargers sign WR Royal
The Chargers have added their second receiver since losing Vincent Jackson in free agency, signing Eddie Royal on Thursday evening.
Patriots sign SS Gregory
The Patriots have signed former Chargers free-agent SS Steve Gregory to a three-year contract.
After setbacks, Chargers turning things around
After losing three Pro Bowl players early in the offseason, the Chargers have turned things around with some signings that improve the roster.
Fantasy spin: LeRon McClain
LeRon McClain is now a Charger, replacing Mike Tolbert but will he be used like Tolbert was the past two seasons? William Del Pilar breaks it down.
Chargers add RB McClain
Le'Ron McClain has signed with the Chargers, giving them a bigger back to presumably replace free agent Mike Tolbert.
Chargers sign OLB Johnson
In an attempt to bolster their linebacking corps, the Chargers have signed OLB Jarret Johnson to a four-year contract.
Chargers keep Gaither with four-year deal
The Chargers have signed OT Jared Gaither to a four-year contract, a major boost to a team that has had a rough offseason thus far on the offensive line.
Fantasy spin: Robert Meachem
The Chargers quickly replaced the loss of WR Vincent Jackson with Robert Meachem but what should fantasy owners expect? William Del Pilar breaks it down.
Chargers add WR Meachem
Hours after losing WR Vincent Jackson to the Buccaneers, the Chargers signed free-agent WR Robert Meachem to a four-year deal.
Bucs gamble on Jackson with division rivals in mind
After staying out of the free-agent melee for the past few offseasons, the Buccaneers took a tremendous risk, albeit one that could pay big dividends, on the first day of free agency.
Chargers re-sign C Hardwick
The Chargers announced on Tuesday that they have re-signed C Nick Hardwick to a three-year contract.
The Chargers have agreed to terms of a contract with Liuget.||||||| Liuget, a defensive end taken 18th, missed the first week of training camp, but Chargers veteran Jacques Cesaire says Liuget still has time to get ready for the season. Liuget led Illinois last year as a junior in quarterback hurries with10 and was seventh in the Big Ten in tackles for a loss with 12 1/2.
The San Diego Chargers took Liuget with the 18th pick overall in the NFL draft Thursday night. "I'm going to come in, play some hard-nosed football and help them win championships," he said.||||||| Liuget might not be the player many outsiders thought the Chargers would take, but team officials think he can add some nastiness to a team that got knocked off its perch atop the AFC West, in part because they had a hard time stopping the run when it really counted. Asked about his toughness, Liuget said: "On a scale of 1 to 10, it's a 12."

What Is Fatty Liver?
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is an increasingly common condition marked by accumulation of fat in the liver cells. In some cases, fatty liver can cause inflammation and scarring and even lead to liver failure or cirrhosis.
Prevent Fatty Liver Naturally
Here are four ways to boost your defense against fatty liver disease.
1) Maintain a Healthy Weight
Sticking to a healthy, plant-based diet and getting regular exercise can keep fat from building up in your liver.
Learn more about finding a diet that's right for you.
2) Cleanse Your Body of Toxins
Exposure to toxins (found in industrial chemicals, some medications, and even your food) can weaken liver function and may contribute to the development of fatty liver. In addition to keeping away from toxic substances, consider flushing toxins from your system with the help of a detox diet.
3) Get Your Antioxidants
Vitamins E and C -- both antioxidants -- may help promote liver health. In a 2005 study, scientists discovered that taking supplements of vitamins E and C helped lower participants' levels of enzymes that are typically elevated in people with fatty liver disease.
4) Try Herbal Medicine
A traditional remedy for liver problems, milk thistle may boost the production of enzymes that help the liver knock out toxins. However, it's important to note that the FDA has not approved the use of milk thistle for improving liver health. Before you begin taking any kind of herb, find out how to use supplements safely.
What Causes Fatty Liver?
Often occurring in people who are overweight or obese, fatty liver has been linked to diabetes, high levels of blood fats, and insulin resistance. In fact, a 2009 study suggests that approximately 70% of people with type-2 diabetes may have fatty liver, and that the disease might follow a more aggressive course for diabetes patients.
Standard blood tests at your doctor's office should indicate whether you have high levels of certain liver enzymes, a marker of fatty liver.
How Do You Treat Fatty Liver?
Although there is no way to treat fatty liver medically, losing weight and lowering your levels of blood fats could help manage the condition. Keeping fatty liver in check is crucial to your overall health: A pair of studies published in 2008 show that excess liver fat can leave you more vulnerable to cardiovascular disease, in addition to diabetes.

Body in river believed to be missing Derby womanby ITV Central
Police say a body discovered in an Italian river is suspected to be that of 46 year old Derby holidaymaker Glenys Turner who disappeared seven months ago.
Hotel staff raised the alarm after Glenys, who was last seen walking near Lake Como in October, had not slept in her bed for three days.
An extensive search by the mountain rescue team involving dogs and a helicopter, was eventually called off when no trace could be found of Ms Turner in the hills of Griante on the western shores of the lake.
A local fisherman notified authorities after spotting the body which was then pulled from the river by mountain rescue teams.
Glenys Turner was travelling alone on a weeks break, staying at the three star Grand Hotel Britannia. Staff at the hotel reported that she had enquired about a trail leading from the town to a chapel, a well known beauty spot 600 ft high.
– Carabinieri police official Gaspare Pupella
"The body was spotted by a fisherman who called us but we had to get the mountain rescue teams involved because the location was in very difficult terrain. The body was in a very advanced state of decomposition and even though a bag was also recovered there were no documents inside.
"She was wearing a bracelet from the Grand Hotel Britannia which is where Glenys Turner was staying at the time she went missing and there are no other people missing from that hotel so we are fairly confident it is her.
"However until we have a positive match through DNA records then we cannot officially confirm that it is her. If it is her then it looks like she slipped and fell into the river and her body became wedged somewhere and then came away."
The foreign office confirmed Italian police were continuing to investigate the disappearance of a British national in the Lake Como area.

NEWS ANALYSIS: Travel shapes opinions of disgruntled St. Petersburg voters
Support for the ruling United Russia is at its lowest in areas close to Finland
print this
By Anneli Ahonen in St. Petersburg
When the Russian President
Dmitri Medvedev
and Prime Minister
Vladimir Putin
pore over the results of Sunday's State Duma elections, their lips will turn downwards and the frowns will appear.
At the latest when they scan the figures from North-Western Russia, they may actually wish to cover their eyes altogether.
The ruling party in the Russian Federation, Yedínaya Rossíya (United Russia), received its lowest approval ratings from the voters in those areas immediately to the east of the border with Finland.
Murmansk, Archangel, the Karelian Republic, the Leningrad Oblast, and St. Petersburg itself all gave only a little over 30% of their votes to United Russia.
In the last elections in 2007, the figures were close to 50%, as United Russia claimed 64.3% of the vote nationwide, against less than 50% this time around.
The numbers coming out of St. Petersburg
speak of a profound sense of discontent, and at the same time the western metropolis has also been reported as having experienced systematic election fraud.
Spravedlivaya Rossiya (SR, "A Just Russia", "Fair Russia") is demanding a recount in St. Petersburg, because according to its own calculations the party would in many places actually have triumphed over United Russia.
The party's support in St. Petersburg, according to official returns, rose no higher than 25.3%.
All the same, this is nearly twice as much as the party polled on average in Russia as a whole (13.25%).
The result gained by the liberal bloc Yabloko
(The Russian United Democratic Party) in the Duma elections in St. Petersburg was even more dramatic, in that it was four times as high here (12%) as in the country as a whole (3.4%). The party also made gains in the city council elections held at the same time.
Political researcher
Dmitri Gavra
notes that the Yabloko result indicates that the order to systematically fix the voting did not come directly from Moscow.
One reason for the voter dissatisfaction
is that the residents of St. Petersburg have only a very vague belief in a better future.
Although the nation has benefited from economic growth in recent years, a large section of the population has been left out in the distribution of largesse.
To many, Vladimir Putin has begun to represent an arrogant despot spoiled by years of power and authority, who has shifted from his earlier guise as a firm-handed man of the people to be an abettor of the corruption that is rampant in Russian society.
The opinions are also shaped by travel
. For the people living in St. Petersburg, tourism into the Schengen area has become a mass phenomenon, with one of the knock-on effects being a need to greatly increase the size of the Finnish Consulate-General in the city, in order to cope with the nearly one million visa applications this year alone.
Armed with these documents, the burghers of St. Petersburg pop over the border for weekends in Finland and spend their holidays on the beaches and ski-slopes of Europe.
Many make comparisons between Finland and Russia, and Russia does not come out of the encounter very well.
In these latest elections
, voter turnout was up in St. Petersburg, and the newcomers to the polls spread their votes among the opposition parties.
The well-known Russian blogger and political & social activist
Aleksei Navalny's
exhortation to vote for anyone rather than United Russia had an impact last weekend.
The Net is breaking down the power exercised by a television that is largely under the control of the state and government.
Russia already has online TV-channels that try to produce an ambitious flow of news.
One of them, Dozhd, has now moved over to the cable networks.
As scions of St. Petersburg themselves
, Putin and Medvedev both know that the city of nearly five million inhabitants is not their strongest area for support.
Medvedev has already threatened to draw the obvious conclusions and to call the regions' governors to account for the failure.
Rather than closing their eyes to the erosion of support, a better means of mollifying the public might be to return the practice of elections for governorships.
Now the regional leaders appointed by Presidential decree are simply fanning the flames of discontent and rebellion.

With anguish and anger in his voice, Manas Saghdejian stood before a group of his fellow Armenians in Fresno on Friday and recounted how his nephew in Kassab, Syria was chained by Islamic rebel forces who took over the village last weekend.
His nephew was made ready for "butcher" but managed to escape, along with an estimated 2,000 others, Saghdejian said. But not everyone in his village on the Mediterranean Sea made it out alive.
During the meeting at the Armenian Community Center in downtown Fresno, attended by about 80 people, Paul Sarimazian of Fresno talked about reports of violence in the postcard-pretty coastal village with a predominately Armenian population.
The Kassab grab provided rebels with their first outpost on the Mediterranean Sea, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal.
Sarimazian said family in Kassab told him that as they were fleeing, they saw one man killed by gunfire -- a shooting also witnessed by his 7-year-old cousin.
According to the Armenian National Committee of America, Fresno is home to thousands of Armenians who are from Kassab or have family in the region.
Along with sharing news, Friday's gathering was also meant as a call to action.
"We are here to put out a plea to Armenians and non-Armenians alike, to all the media, to please take notice of what is happening in Kassab," said Rosie Bedrosian, on the central executive board of the Armenian Relief Society, a humanitarian agency.
Vahagn Bznouni, a committee member for the Central California chapter of the Armenian National Committee of America and who led the meeting, urged residents to write to their elected officials about the need to help stop the violence.
Last weekend's takeover of Kassab bore historic weight: It was the third time since 1900 that Armenians in Kassab felt compelled to run for their lives.
They left once at the hands of vengeful Turkish neighbors, and later because of Ottoman forces. Historians estimate that up to 1.5 million Armenians were killed by Ottoman Turks around the time of World War I -- an event widely viewed by scholars as the first genocide of the 20th century.
"The genocide is continuing," Bedrosian said of reports she's received from the latest attack on Kassab. "People are being killed, people are being decapitated, massacred and displaced."
Syrian rebels who stormed into Kassab last weekend came from an array of conservative and Islamic groups, including the al-Qaida-affiliated Nusra Front, according to a report by Associated Press.
A Syrian field commander told journalists in the nearby town of Badrousieh that gunmen began their attack "with clear support from the Turks," although Turkish officials have refuted the claims.
Most Kassab residents fled to Latakia, emptying out a village that boasted a Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant church. Many Fresno Armenians remain worried about their relatives' plight.
"They don't have any clothes, because they only left with what they were wearing," Sarimazian said of his family now in Latakia, adding food supplies are starting to run out in a mission where they are seeking refuge. "There's only so much supplies a tiny little church and a couple schools can provide for thousands of people."

Waffles are more than just a breakfast treat. They can be a dessert, an afterschool snack, or dinner. For some, Sunday waffles are a tradition, for others, an awesome treat. It doesn't matter which category you fit in, waffles can be for everyone.
Previously, waffle makers were bulky, unreliable, and hard to clean. Now, they are smaller, easy to clean, and make delicious waffle after waffle.
Ask yourself a few questions when you are deciding which waffle maker is right for you.
How much space do you have to store your waffle maker? Some waffle makers are larger than others, like Belgium waffle makers, likewise with ones that produce multiple waffles at once. Other waffle makers are smaller, only producing a few waffles at a time. If space is a concern for you, consider a smaller waffle maker with a retractable cord.
If you are planning to match your waffle maker with the rest of your kitchen, consider what color you will want. A brushed stainless steel waffle maker will go with everything, while a red one will not.
Waffle shape can be very important. Do you want a square, triangle, or round Belgium waffle? Depending on the type of maker you buy, you most certainly could have different shapes of waffles. Some makers even mold the waffle into a cartoon shape.
Definitely look for a waffle maker with an adjustable thermostat. A factory setting isn't always the best setting for your waffle. Try making a few until you get the consistency or crispness you are looking for.
Are you afraid if you buy a waffle maker it will be a hassle to clean? Don't be. They are easier to clean than ever. Most are non-stick and some have removable pieces for easier cleaning.
Don't think of a waffle maker as just a waffle maker anymore. Look for extra features like a multi-purpose waffle maker. Some are capable of making sandwiches or Panini's as well as waffles. Some come with the ability to make dippable waffles by inserting a stick into the batter while they are cooking. An extra feature that may come with your waffle maker is a cookbook.

Sailing daily from MacMillan Wharf and stretching 39 feet lengthwise and 16 feet abeam, the Coast Guard–approved Viking Princess accommodates up to 42 passengers and two crewpersons per cruise. Several different cruise formats introduce water wanderers to coastal views of varying sites, such as Cape Cod's prime real estate, well-known lighthouses, and hidden Provincetown gems. The Princess also embarks on festive holiday-themed voyages, such as Fourth of July or Tax Day cruises. Cape Cod Life's 2010 Gold winner for Best Kids' Activity, the Critter Cruise invites wee ones to pull up lobster pots and bottom dredges from the waters and safely inspect and handle the findings— such as blue fish, sea turtles, or humpback whales—alongside an expert naturalist. The Princess is wide enough to facilitate groups dancing to the sounds of the ship's overhead stereo or to the tunes of local musicians during live-music cruises.
Such scenes, part of Cape Cod?s natural magic, are not lost on Bob Wilds. A retired whale watcher, Bob resides in the Cape year-round. He founded Great Marsh Kayak Tours in hopes of sharing the beauty that surrounds him daily. Bob leads family-friendly adventures, such as the Naturalist?s Dream tour, which immerses groups in the majestic salt marshes and explores how early Cape Cod settlers used this environment to survive. All tours employ the services of the Esperanto, a comfy, easy-to-paddle kayak with ample storage capacity for personal belongings and the native kettle chips found floating in the water.
Captain Mike, a Coast Guard?licensed boater, takes singles, pairs, and groups of three onto the water in a boat built in 2011 and checked daily for safety. Parasailers prep for their ascent by strapping into equipment garnered from the world's leading parasail equipment manufacturers. A multicolored parachute then pulls them soaring into the blue firmament for a thrilling ride and views typically only seen while inside a paper airplane.
The six different parasailing experiences cater to varying tastes, with the Wet 'n' Wild option guaranteeing a dunk in the water and the Elevator Gone Mad flight promising patrons a quick shot into the air before falling gently back to earth. For another means of taking in the sights, the crew sets up beach-goers with safe, speedy jet skis that can hold up to three passengers.
Maybe it's an untamed jungle, or a space ship where astronauts encounter alien life forms. Or perhaps it's a medieval castle under attack from evil knights. The multi-tiered play set, which stretches across much of the indoor center, can be anything kids want it to be. That?s probably why it?s Bonkerz Party Zone's most popular attraction. Young adventurers can unleash their imaginations as they climb, swing, and bounce their way across the sprawling red and blue levels. Parents, meanwhile, keep an eye on their little tykes through the see-through mesh siding?that is if they don't jump into the play set themselves.
The fun spills over into other attractions, such as a moon bounce and an ocean-themed climbing wall, which forgoes traditional handholds for ones that look like fish. Electronic beeps ring out at the arcade, where kids and adults can compete in air hockey or play nonviolent video games. To fuel family play time, an onsite snack bar churns out New York?style pizza, and staffers supply themed birthday cakes for special occasions.
With names like "Red Hot Chili Pepper," "Moves Like Jagger," and "Rolling in the Deep," the specialty sushi rolls listed on The Monkey Bar - Johnny Thai's menu affirms its staff members' silly side. They channel this sense of humor into their creative takes on traditional Asian food. For example, the Big Red roll layers tempura shrimp with ten slices of tuna, while the Lady Gaga roll bowls over patrons with salmon and tuna that is tempura-fried, just like its namesake's outfit at the last red-carpet event. Traditional dishes such as General Tso's chicken and teriyaki plates can be ordered, but dishes such as Hawaii 5-O, which mixes chicken, beef, shrimp, scallops, and lobster, are a hallmark of the kitchen staff's inventive style.
Groupon Celebrates Pride Month
Over the last 50 years, the gay-rights movement in America has overcome tremendous obstacles to become a powerful voice for inclusion and diversity. Even as it has grown, the movement?like Groupon?is local at heart, and we applaud the commitment to real change that improves everyday lives.
At Groupon, we are happy to add our voices to those celebrating PRIDE, their achievements as a social movement and a continued march to equality for the LGBT community. Plus, we love a chance to dig that rainbow wig out of storage.
This month?and throughout the year?we salute our merchants and customers who support PRIDE and all efforts that promote dignity, respect, and equal opportunity. We're highlighting these merchants' deals with a special badge to show Groupon's pride in working with people who share our values.
In November of 1620, a modest sailing ship touched the shores of what would become Provincetown, bearing a group of Pilgrims who would create and sign the Mayflower Compact. Both the Pilgrim Monument and Provincetown Museum were built to commemorate that historic event and preserve Provincetown history for future generations.
Eye Catcher: The Pilgrim Monument was dedicated in 1910 to the Mayflower Pilgrims. Standing 252 feet tall, it's the tallest US structure made of granite. Visitors can venture up the 116 steps and 60 ramps to the top, a full 350 feet above sea level.
Permanent Mainstay: Many of the exhibits celebrate the area's maritime history, such as the recreation of a 19th-century sea captain's quarters at sea. Others celebrate the area's culture, such as the collection of tools used by the Wampanoag tribe.
Don't Miss: An apprentice of Paul Revere built the town?s first fire engine in the 1830s, which today stands on exhibit in the museum.
Past Exhibits: The Playwright of Peaked Hill Bars told the tale of how Eugene O'Neill's early life in Provincetown impacted his creative voice.
Special Programs: In the summertime, the museum sponsors weekly historical walking tours of the surrounding area. At the end of November, in a century-old tradition, they light up the during a lighting ceremony that celebrates the Pilgrims' 1620 landing.

The 1890s was not only Idaho's first decade of statehood, but an auspicious time in the capital city for starting clubs and associations with a variety of interests and objectives.
"A number of Boise's bright young men have decided to organize a debating society," noted the Idaho Statesman on Sept. 22, 1893. "The first meeting will be held in the office of W.E. Pierce & Co. at 7 o'clock this evening. An invitation is extended to all young men who are interested in the promotion of such an organization to attend."
The Young Men's Debating Club, formed in early October, decided to hold weekly meetings throughout winter. The first subject debated was whether the government should own and operate the nation's railway and telegraph systems. H.R. Cooke and Edgar Hawley for the affirmative were judged the winners, "settling for all time the momentous question," quipped the Statesman.
At the next meeting it was decided, after a heated debate, that women should not be allowed to vote. Fortunately, the question was not to be decided by these young men, for three years later Idaho women did get the vote, making it only the fourth state in the nation to give women that privilege. Most American women could not vote until 1920. Two other wide-ranging questions debated that winter, each decided in the affirmative, were that Boise's military post should be abandoned and that the United States should annex the Hawaiian Islands, an event that happened in 1898.
In 1897, Boiseans with a love of music organized a banjo club and a mandolin club, joining colleges and universities across the country in what has been described as a "wildly popular" movement. Harvard University had both banjo and mandolin clubs in the 1890s, as did the University of Chicago, Stanford University and a score of other schools. In June 1898, Boise's banjo and mandolin clubs gave a joint concert for the benefit of the Idaho volunteers about to leave for the Philippines to fight in the Spanish-American War.
Other organizations formed in the 1890s included a Liquor Dealers Protective Association of southern Idaho for the purpose of fighting anti-saloon legislation. Pioneer saloon keeper John Early was elected president and B.H. Coleman secretary. A Gentlemen's Driving Club met at the Capitol Hotel on July 19, 1892, and adopted a constitution and by-laws. (No, young readers, they weren't driving automobiles. The 38 charter members took pride in their fine matched teams of horses and the stylish vehicles they pulled over Boise Valley's unpaved roads and streets. The automobile was still a few years away.)
In February 1894, 25 men met and formed the Boise Chess Club. Thomas Davis was elected president, and a room was set up in the Sonna Building that would be open day and night for members to play.
Bicycles became a craze in the 1890s, and Boise had a Pastime Club devoted to the sport of bicycle racing and touring the countryside. In September 1896, a two-day race held in Boise was reported in newspapers as far away as Salt Lake City.
The clubs described above catered to special interests, but Boise had its share of fraternal organizations and religious societies, too. In the 1890s there was a club for you, whatever your taste or inclination.

Barack Obama brings European-style big government to Wall Street
Not content with attempting (and failing) to socialize America's health care system, Barack Obama is now trying his best to impose government control over the financial services industry. In his speech to Wall Street bankers this morning on the first anniversary of Lehman Brothers' collapse, the president unveiled his ambitious new proposal for a grand Consumer Financial Protection Agency to enforce "the most ambitious overhaul of the financial system since the Great Depression."
This new government goliath, which smacks of EU-style state interventionism, is apparently necessary because those capitalist Gordon Gekko wannabes on Wall Street simply aren't listening to the White House, and are daring to create wealth and – heaven forbid – profits, in the ashes of last year's banking collapse. As Obama put it angrily in his speech at Federal Hall:
"Unfortunately, there are some in the financial industry who are misreading this moment. Instead of learning the lessons of Lehman and the crisis from which we're still recovering, they're choosing to ignore those lessons. I'm convinced they do so not just at their own peril, but at our nation's. So I want everybody here to hear my words: We will not go back to the days of reckless behavior and unchecked excess that was at the heart of this crisis, where too many were motivated only by the appetite for quick kills and bloated bonuses. Those on Wall Street cannot resume taking risks without regard for consequences, and expect that next time, American taxpayers will be there to break their fall."
There is broad agreement in the United States on both sides of the political aisle that the system of financial regulation needs to be tightened in order to avoid another economic banking meltdown. But why not do that by better coordinating and enforcing the legion of controls that are already in place?
Setting up a mammoth new federal bureaucracy is not the solution and is based on the premise that government knows best. It doesn't. As the massive $787 billion stimulus spending bonanza has shown, the greatest beneficiaries of government intervention in the economy have been the unemployment rolls – now standing at nearly 10 percent of the workforce – and the national debt, which has reached a staggering $12 trillion.
The biggest winner from Obama's proposal will not be Wall Street. Any talk of increasing government control of the financial services sector is a job killer, and will drive investment overseas. It will be far less regulated markets such as Singapore and Hong Kong that will gain from an exodus of US capital.
The City of London could also emerge a major beneficiary from the new banking proposals. If the next British government, almost certainly a Conservative administration, opts for light but sensible regulation of financial markets and hedge funds for example, the UK will gain a significant competitive advantage over New York as well as further strengthen its lead position over European rivals such as Frankfurt and Paris.
If the UK under David Cameron rejects the Obama/Brussels model, London could receive a significant boost from the biggest wave of US financial regulation since Sarbanes-Oxley in 2002. Today's presidential announcement is bad news for Wall Street, but may end up raising a few cheers in the City.

Advantages of Solar Lighting
Anyone who believes the Earth needs our protection has likely read up on the benefits of solar power. Because the technology draws its power from an unlimited source – the Sun – this approach to saving energy is widely considered one of the most practical and viable for long-term use. From major solar panel arrays to portable electronics that make use of ambient light, designers have continually pushed the envelope to generate new and better technology for solar panels. Today one of the simplest is also one of the most affordable: solar lighting.
Although most people immediately think of a well-lit outdoor scene when they hear this term, generally it is used to describe a particular breed of self-powered footlights. Solar lighting fixtures get their name from the fact that they use solar panels to power the bulbs at night, essentially charging and discharging daily. Some of the finest versions include dimmers and double-wide arrays to ensure they store adequate energy even on foggy days. And the best versions come with lengthy warranties on every part – testament to solar panel manufacturing protocols that include some of the most modern renewable materials.
Why would you want to opt for solar lighting rather than the traditional kind? The simple answer is money. Outdoor lighting can be notoriously expensive to run, particularly if you aim to illuminate a wide swath of your property during the evening's darkest hours. Many homes require extensive lighting arrays to maintain safety and deter criminals, and the cost of powering so many bulbs can easily run to three figures a month. With solar lighting, you get the energy for free, ensuring the entire property stays lit at minimal cost – even if your neighborhood sees a blackout. Consistency like this makes the higher installation price seem well worth it.
Of course, energy isn't the only way you save with solar lighting. One of the major costs associated with traditional outdoor lighting is the extensive electrical work required to keep everything up and running. From digging and landscaping through installing transformers and junction boxes, wiring your lawn can be a costly process. The costs tend to multiply exponentially if there is existing plumbing in the way – sprinkler systems in particular can mean major expenditures. With solar lighting, there are no wires and no technicians – the freestanding lamps are utterly self-sufficient. In most cases, they can be installed in a single afternoon using nothing more complex than a garden spade.
Another great advantage is safety, particularly in high-traffic areas such as walkways and gardens. No wires means minimal electrical risk – children can play nearby without having to worry about injuries from an errant connection. Most of the modern versions of lamps such as these can even withstand torrential rain, nearby swimming pools and other spills without ceding their sky-high safety ratings. Because they are entirely self-contained, the devices never pose a risk to family pets and backyard visitors – even concerted gnawing will not succeed in releasing a shock.
Larger solar lighting products work on similar principles, essentially drawing in a far wider patch of sunlight and expelling it with greater power. Streetlamps, floodlights and illuminated runners all make use of similar solar panel technology – a bit costly at first, but sure to pay for themselves over time. You can even get solar panels for more general use on your home's roof, powering the lighting and other systems in a single elegant package. Some of the more ingenious designs purport to reclaim some of their own energy as well, essentially running on the spillover from their own lighting elements.
Solar lighting is as versatile as it is inexpensive, offering homeowners and CEO's countless ways to save. If you are in the market for something truly innovative, you may also want to check out the new market for optic fiber lighting that pump the sun into every room in your building. There may be no more natural and pleasing light source in industry today. Whatever you choose, be sure to stick with manufacturers whose efficiency ratings and customer service have earned high marks from the conservation community.

Joe Inglett - "Ankle - Questionable for June 14-16 series at L.A. Angels"
Doug Davis - 15 Day DL for inflammation around the heart. "He is targeting a June 29 return to the Brewers' rotation" " threw bullpen sessions on Tuesday and Thursday. " Two MiLB appearances scheduled
Todd Coffey -15-day DL. Thumb. "Out until at least late June" but is playing catch and will make at least one rehab appearance before being activated.
Marco "Polo" Estrada - 15 Day DL with shoulder weakness. Probably will be optioned to AAA or AA when activated.
Latroy "Tony" Hawk(ins) - 60 day DL shoulder weakness. Out for a while. CBS says "late June" but I don't think that meets the 60 day requirement.
Gregg Zaugggn - 60 day DL officially. Season-ending surgery scheduled (or already happened last week?).
Jody Gerut - 15 day DL. Heel. With Hart performing well, I could see them stashing Gerut on the DL for a while yet, at least until Edmonds gets hurt again
Mat "the batt" Gamel - activated from 60 day DL. Rehabbing at AAA at the moment and doing pretty well (.828 OPS across all levels this season; only a .674 MLE OPS though). His activation on the 40 man roster was what caused the waiver of HEETHER!
David Riske is back on the active roster, pitching pretty well so far. Cappy is back as well, doing less well.

Dangerous people from his father's world have discovered that Cash holds information that could put them away for a very long time. And they're willing to do anything—and hurt anybody—to get it back. Giving it up means Cash must choose between the life of his father and the life of Olivia.
Having nearly overcome her wariness of bad boys, Olivia's trust is shaken when this new threat arises. Now she finds that Cash is not only a danger to her heart, but his family has associations that are a danger to her life as well. She soon discovers that there are some situations in life where trust is a girl's only option. And this is one of them. If she's to live, she must trust Cash with her life. But to Olivia, that's much, much easier than letting go and trusting him with her heart.
Down to You

From Goodreads:
Genre: Adult Contemporary Romance- Please be advised that this book is NOT YA friendly, not even in a New Adult category!
The scorching tale of one girl, two brothers and a love triangle…that's not.
Olivia Townsend is nothing special. She's just a girl working her way through college so she can return home to help her father run his business. She's determined not to be the second woman in his life to abandon him, even if it means putting her own life on hold. To Olivia, it's clear what she must do. Plain and simple. Black and white.
But clear becomes complicated when she meets Cash and Nash Davenport. They're brothers.
Cash is everything she's always wanted in a guy. He's a dangerous, sexy bad boy who wants her in his bed at any cost. He turns her insides to mush and, with just one kiss, makes her forget why he's no good for her.
Nash is everything she's ever needed in a guy. He's successful, responsible and intensely passionate. But he's taken. Very taken, by none other than Marissa, Liv's rich, beautiful cousin. That doesn't stop Olivia from melting every time he looks at her, though. With just one touch, he makes her forget why they can never be together.
Black and white turns to shades of gray when Olivia discovers the boys are hiding something, something that should make her run as far and as fast as she can. But it's too late to run. Olivia's already involved. And in love. With both of them.
Both brothers make her heart tremble. Both brothers set her body on fire.
She wants them both.
And they want her.
How will she ever choose between them?
Read my Book Review: Down to You by M. Leighton
M. Leighton: I was born and raised in the United States, and I've lived in several of the fabulous fifty. Though I currently live in the deep South, I spent much of my childhood up North and hope to return there one day. A few other things about me: I believe that sometimes you have to look really, REALLY hard to find the good in people, but it's there. I believe that I'm shrinking (I swear five years ago I was two inches taller). I believe my husband is quite possibly one of the most amazing men in the entire world (I can't be sure because I haven't met all of them). I believe coffee and chocolate, when combined, could be the basis for world peace. I believe that Jesus rocks and communism doesn't. I believe that white makes me look fat and black collects lint. I believe summer's too hot, winter's too cold and fall was made for football. I like dogs better than cats and the first movie in a trilogy is invariably the best. But most of all, I believe that love conquers all.

Professor Michelle Alexander's new book "The New Jim Crow" is a monumental, well researched piece of work that presents documented facts in down to earth English about the mass incarceration of Black people within the United States' national concentration camp system. At one point in "The New Jim Crow," Professor Alexander presents evidence that more Black people are enslaved behind bars today than were enslaved on the plantations in 1850, before the Emancipation Proclamation was signed.

The Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals overturned a conviction obtained by San Mateo County Chief Deputy District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe and published its reason – racially discriminatory jury selection – stating: "overwhelming evidence indicating that the prosecutor [Wagstaffe] … acted with discriminatory intent when he struck M.C. [an African-American juror]."

In April, the U.S. Supreme Court refused to consider an appeal from death-row journalist and former Black Panther Mumia Abu-Jamal, who was convicted of first-degree murder in the shooting death of white Philadelphia Police Officer Daniel Faulkner in a 1982 trial deemed unfair by Amnesty International, the European Parliament, the Japanese Diet, Nelson Mandela and numerous others. Now Abu-Jamal's international support network is calling for a federal civil rights investigation into his case.

The U.S. Supreme Court's 1986 Batson v. Kentucky decision prohibited the state from removing Black jurors for racial reasons. Still, courts have been loathe to grant relief.
April 6, 2009
The U.S. Supreme Court announced today that they have rejected death-row journalist Mumia Abu-Jamal's appeal for a new guilt phase trial. Readers are urged to contact the White House to protest this unjust ruling. Call (202) 456-1111 or visit http://www.whitehouse.gov/CONTACT/.

Reports and Data
Performance Monitoring
Reclamation tracks power program performance on a continual basis. Monthly performance reports from the power facilities are used to generate annual summary reports, some of which are included below.
The purpose of this Update is to revise the May 1995 report, "Replacements, Units, Service Lives, Factors" published by the Western Area Power Administration (Western) and the Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation). There is significant continuity of data in many sample projects from earlier reports dating as far back as March 1968 for some plant accounts. This Update was prepared by a team of Western and Reclamation staff members during the period from October 2003 through December 2005. The Update includes changing the name of the Reference numbers to Justification numbers. The Update also includes adding new units of property as well as combining some of the units of property. These changes were made to reflect current operating and accounting practices.
Reclamation-Wide Power Performance
Reclamation incorporates monthly hydroelectric powerplant performance data into an electronic database and a long term trend analysis tool. As a part of this effort, benchmarks have been developed which give an overall trend analysis of powerplant performance. The benchmarks look at the availability of the turbine/generators to deliver power and energy when requested and the cost of producing the energy and power. The Reclamation-wide and Regional power performance for Fiscal Year 2007 are presented in Adobe Acrobat .pdf format at the links below:
- Benchmarking Overview
- Reclamation-wide power profile
- 0 - 10 megawatt group powerplants
- 10 - 30 megawatt group powerplants

Inventory of Reclamation Water Surface Storage Studies with Hydropower Components
Report to Congress Implementing Provisions of Section 1840 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (Public Law 109-58) . This report complies with Section 1840 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 requiring the Secretary of the Interior, acting through the Bureau of Reclamation, to develop a report "identifying and describing the status of potential hydropower facilities included in water surface storage studies undertaken by the Secretary for projects that have not been completed or authorized for construction" since 1939.
This report contains no recommendations. However, it does serve as a useful reference tool for understanding the magnitude and scope of historical study activities in specific locations. The report is in .pdf format.
Potential Hydroelectric Development at Existing Federal Facilities for Section 1834 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005
This report complies with Section 1834 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (Section 1834) that requires the Secretary of the Interior, the Secretary of the Army, and the Secretary of Energy to "jointly conduct a study assessing the potential for increasing electric power production at federally owned or operated water regulation, storage, and conveyance facilities." The study participants included select staff of the Bureau of Reclamation, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the Bureau of Land Management, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the National Park Service, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Western Area Power Administration, the Southeastern Power Administration, the Southwestern Power Administration, and the Bonneville Power Administration.
The study examined 871 existing federal facilities, with and without hydroelectric generating capability, assessing their physical capacity for generation or generation expansion and their economic viability based on comparisons with regional electric power rates. The report does not include any assessments of lands not under federal domain or consider new dam construction. In addition, the study participants developed and included assessment tools for generating capacity and economic viability that may be used and updated for future use.
The 1834 Report contains no recommendations. Rather, the report only attempts to give a broad inventory and assessment of future hydropower development at federal facilities under the jurisdiction of the participating agencies. The report is in pdf format. Additional analysis tools are included below.

The Impact of Energy Performance on Single-Family Home Sales Prices in Sweden
AbstractThe EU Energy Performance Certificates provide new information and measure energy performance more exactly than many earlier (proxy) variables. This is one of the first studies to test the effect of this information, and the first one using Swedish data. The purpose of the paper is to test whether energy performance affects single-family house sales prices, and whether such impact is heterogeneous over house size, age and distance from city center. The paper also examines whether recommendations for supposedly cost-effective energy efficiency measures, by intervention category (construction, installation or operation/control technical measures), are perceived as untapped potential affecting sales prices. Energy performance measurement and dummy variables for three categories of improvement recommendations were included as explanatory variables in a hedonic regression analysis using transaction data and Energy Performance Certificates data for 1073 observations. The results indicate that better energy performance has a positive impact on sales price. Energy efficiency recommendations seem to have an impact on sales price; home buyers seem to require a larger "discount" for more complex types of measures. The results may imply that energy efficiency in buildings will become more important in the future, which may strengthen house owners'/sellers' incentives to improve energy efficiency.

Stream movies online with a new service called M-GO. We already did a rundown of all the big movie rental services. At first glance, M-GO is very similar to Vudu. You pay per rental or purchase, there is no subscription model. Pricing is similar to other rental services. Most new titles were $3.99 for SD and $4.99 for HD. At its debut, the service is available on PC web browsers, the iPad's safari browser, Android, Google TV, and Samsung smart TV's.
Stream movies online with M-GO – Pricing and Selection
The selection seems pretty standard. Lots of new releases were there, and a large catalog of older movies. Pricing is basically the same as you'll find on Vudu, Amazon Instant Video, or others. However, M-GO is running a current promotion where you'll have a month of unlimited 99¢ SD rentals after you sign up. HD rentals are $1.99 with the promotion. If you rent a bunch of new movies this alone makes it worth trying out.
Stream movies online with M-GO - Interface
The PC-based interface is pleasant. It was easy to control from my couch. It is somewhat simplified, though. There aren't a ton of sorting options, and the recommendations didn't have anywhere near the level of control that Netflix does. It is easy to find new releases and popular movies. One nice touch is they will provide links to other services if they don't have the movie you're looking for.
Stream movies online with M-GO - Playback
I rented an SD movie and playback began promptly. The picture quality looked like that of a DVD on my plasma TV. I did experience a few long pauses. After waiting several minutes for the movie to buffer and restart I grew impatient and tried to back it up a few minutes. Upon doing that, the movie jumped ahead about 5 minutes and I had to find where I was before it stopped. This happened twice to me. Perhaps it was an issue with my connection, but I've never experienced a movie stream jumping ahead like that on other services before.
Stream movies online with M-GO - Wrapup
M-GO is a nice service with a nice look. If you're already happy with iTunes, Amazon Instant Video, Vudu, etc then I see no reason to switch. However, you should try it out and get a bunch of 99¢ rentals while you can.

Chapter Five0 Reviews
god. i hate these summary things.
"Dan, I told you last night and the night before and the night before that and fucking night before that. I'm going on tour for winter break. You have the house Alaina-free for two weeks! Happy or what?"
"Oh you don't even know!" he raised his hands to the ceiling as if he were praying, "Praise the Lord."
"You shouldn't attempt to praise him, you're going to hell anyway!" I walked out of the house slamming the door. I threw my bags in the back hopped in the car and drove to my destination.
"I still don't understand how we're all going to fit." Mikey looked quizzically at the small dinky car Gerard drove.
"Its okay guys I'll just sit this one out."
"No you have to come with us!" Bob latched on to my arm, Frank my leg and Ray my head. Yeah I don't know how that one worked either.
"I cant fit though."
"We'll make you fit!" Gerard suggested. I didn't really like the look he had. I didn't really feel like getting hurt. Gerard's plans always consisted of getting hurt, but you know they always got the job done? As we pondered ways to make all of us fit a white mini van with a small trailer attached to the back pulled into the drive way. Out hopped Helen.
"That'd be me! Everyone, I knew you would never be able to make it with such a small car so I'm giving this to you."
"Grandma you gotta be kidding!"
"No I'm not. You boys deserve this. Your music is something great. I support you all one hundred percent." All the boys took their turns hugging Helen. They then started packing up the van. I walked to Helen and hugged her tightly.
"I know this wasn't a gift to me but thank you. If you didn't give them this van I think I would be riding in the trunk of Gee's car." She laughed and hugged me back.
"Of course it's a gift to you sweetie. Now you DON'T have to ride in the trunk!" we both laughed and the boys were yelling at me to hurry and get in the car. I hugged Helen one last time and ran to the van.
"Love you Grandma!"
"Haha love you too Alaina." With that we pulled out from the driveway of the Way household and were on our journey.
"Wake up sunshine." Ray tickled my nose with a feather and I quickly sat upright.
"Where did you get that feather?
"Killed a bird."
"Oh." Being I've known Ray since first grade, his answer was normal in my mind. I emerged from the van and walked to the rest of the guys. They seemed to be interested in something that stood before them. I pushed Bob and Frank out of the way to find four other guys. One was blonde and tall, the other wore glasses and had short hair, then there was one with many tattoos and dark hair. The last one was short with long black hair. It was greasy like my own. His smiled seemed mischievous but over all he looked pretty friendly. When he looked at me his eyes widened and his smile grew bigger. He ran towards me and hugged me until all the air escaped my lungs.
"I'm Bert! And that's Quinn, Branden, and Jeph! They like it up the ass." They smiled and waved.
"What a coincidence. So do I!" my reply must have shocked the boys that stood in front of me but Gerard and the rest laughed and brushed it off. Bert hugged me tightly again.
"I'm so going to get along with this one." He pointed at me as he talked to Brian.
"Everyone will. Its pretty impossible to hate Alaina Beaton." Brian ruffled my hair and I kissed him on the cheek. We all talked for a little while until Bert grabbed my hand and forced me to get coffee with him. He insisted on "getting to know me" as Brian put it.

SPECIAL OFFER: - Limited Time Only!

Because cancer treatments affect healthy cells as well as cancer cells, it's important to give your body the tools it needs to rebuild and stay strong, and the best way to do this is through the food you eat. "They used to tell cancer patients to eat anything that sounded good -- whether it was milkshakes or pudding -- just to keep your weight on. But it really does matter what foods you're eating," says Jennifer Reilly, senior nutritionist for the Cancer Project. Give yourself every advantage you can during treatment by adding these superfoods to your diet.
To keep nausea at bay, snack on whole wheat toast. You'll not only keep your stomach from churning, you'll give yourself a good dose of fiber, which the body uses to keep your digestive tract healthy. It's also good as a remedy for diarrhea. Eat dry if possible, or with a small pat of butter.
Recommended serving size: 1 slice; 79 caloriesGinger
Hailed by herbalists for its ability to ease stomach upset and used by the Chinese as a nausea remedy for at least 2,000 years, ginger is a great tool to have in your arsenal. Use fresh grated ginger in stir-fries, soups, and hot or cold tea, or sprinkle powdered ginger over melon or into rice. Also check your health food store for crystallized ginger, a sweet treat that you eat like candy.
Recommended serving size: As needed, not to exceed 4 grams per day
Making sure you get enough of the right kind of protein (preferably not from meat or dairy) is essential to keeping your strength up. Almond butter is a delicious source of protein (5 grams in one serving) -- so tasty you'll enjoy it even if you're dealing with nausea, taste change, or loss of appetite as a side effect of your treatment. Almonds also contain benzaldehyde, which researchers in Japan have demonstrated to be toxic to cancer cells. Try spreading it on whole-grain toast or an apple for a high-energy snack that also delivers a healthy dose of fiber.
Recommended serving size: 2 tablespoons; 200 caloriesLentils
Packing 9 grams of protein and 7.8 grams of fiber in each serving, lentils are pint-sized powerhouses. While all beans are good sources of protein and fiber, lentils are among the easiest to digest and are a good way to increase your fiber intake without the usual accompanying gas and bloating. Lentils can also be cooked to be as bland or as flavorful as you like, accommodating a wide range of tastes. To serve, boil in salted water until tender (about 20 minutes), then drain and toss with olive oil, a splash of vinegar, and diced raw carrots to make a simple lentil salad.
Recommended serving size: 1/2 cup cooked; 115 calories
This potent plant is loaded with allicin, an allyl sulfide, which has been shown to destroy cancer cells, reduce the rate of cell division, and support the immune system. Ironically, these sulfides are also what give garlic its trademark smell. Allicin is activated by exposure to air, so let raw garlic sit after chopping for 10 minutes. Then sprinkle garlic into soups or stir-fries or over salads. You can also mix cloves in with the almond butter you eat on whole wheat toast.
Recommended serving size: 3 cloves a day -- studies suggest that the more you eat the betterSpinach
This dark green is rich in folates, which helps your body build healthy cells. It's also a great source of lutein, an antioxidant that is believed to help significantly reduce incidences of cancer. Eat it raw with sliced mushrooms, slivers of red onion, crumbled hard-boiled egg and your favorite dressing; or simply saute it with a little olive oil, chopped garlic, and a squeeze of lemon juice.
Recommended serving size: 1 cup raw, 10 calories; or 1/2 cup cooked, 21 calories

The J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles, Ms. Ludwig XIV 6 (c. 1300), folio 242v (detail): baptism of a Muslim, illumination from the Vidal Mayor
This is the pilot version of what will become a major text database of legal texts concerning the status of religious minorities in the Middle Ages. The base currently contains several hundred texts, but will gradually grow to several thousand texts by 2015.
The database is part of the research project "RELMIN: The legal status of religious minorities in the Euro-Mediterranean world (5 th -15 th centuries)" ( www.relmin.eu ), funded for five years (2010-2015) by the "Ideas" programme of the European Research Council's Seventh Framework Programme and directed by John Tolan, Professor of history at the University of Nantes. The research team consists of doctoral students, postdoctoral researchers and associated scholars throughout the world. In addition to creating the database, the team organizes seminars and conferences in Nantes and elsewhere in Europe and the Mediterranean.
Through this database, RELMIN collects and publishes legal texts defining the status of religious minorities in pre-modern Europe. The corpus of texts is rich and varied, spanning ten centuries over a broad geographical area; these texts, in Latin, Arabic, Greek, Hebrew and Aramaic (and also in Medieval Spanish, Portuguese, and other European vernaculars), are dispersed in libraries and archives across Europe.
The Roman law code of emperor Theodosius II, promulgated in 438, accorded to Jews (and their synagogues) measures of protection but also restricted their access to certain functions of the Roman administration. These principles echo through the canon law and imperial and royal legislation of Medieval Europe, providing the bases for an inferior and often precarious place in Christian society for Jews. Later canon lawyers and lay princes extended the same inferior but protected status to Muslims living in their realms, particularly in Sicily and Spain. In Muslim societies, Qur'an and Hadith define the status of the dhimmi , protected minorities (principally Jews and Christians). Hundreds of legal texts from Muslim Spain, Sicily and elsewhere testify to the role of religious minorities and to the legal issues posed by their daily relations with the Muslim majorities: Fatwas (judicial consultations) and hisbas manuals (municipal law collections) deal with everything from the reliability of Jewish and Christian witnesses in court trials to dress restrictions. While Jews were everywhere the minority, their relations with the adherents of other religions were also based on sacred texts (the Torah) and on the legal opinions of the Talmud. Various Jewish authors of Medieval Europe, from Cordova to Krakow, in texts such as biblical commentaries, letters, or responsa , offered legal advice to fellow Jews on the proper and legal limits to relations with Christians and Muslims.
The texts that appear in this database are thus extremely diverse (in provenance, language, nature, purpose …). By bringing them together, we seek to offer students and researchers an important tool for the study of the history of interconfessional relations and specifically for the study of the legal strictures (and protections and privileges) conferred on religious groups. While it will be impossible for this or any one project to compile an exhaustive anthology of texts, we seek to present a broad and representative sample of texts.
Suggestions, corrections, contributions We invite scholars who use the database to provide feedback and to contribute to the work of compilation.
We welcome corrections of any errors or omissions in any of the articles of the database. We also invite you to suggest texts to be included in the database. If you are willing to contribute to the database by writing one or more entries, please let us know.
All correspondence may be sent to : firstname.lastname@example.com
