With Gaddafi dead and its "military job now done," NATO has declared its campaign in Libya one of the "most successful in NATO history." However, untold casualties and a country devastated by war call into question the alliance's notion of success.

text: "Awaiting the outcome of the trial"? Too cute by half. They only need balance of probabilities to decide whether it's a stolen work. Onus of proof for a criminal trial is too high a bar and utterly inappropriate. And how bribe-proof is India's court system? And why isn't the work already labelled as of possible illegitimate origin? I had read an article about this stolen work ages ago in an overseas publication, and got a shock when I saw it on display a few months ago. Ron Radford has quite some front. Who does he answer to? Why isn't Arts Minister Simon Crean taking an interest and protecting Australia's international reputation?

Latest News
Billy Witz of The New York Times wrote an interesting feature on the U.S. Men's National Team on Thursday, going in-depth on the USMNT's practice of having players drive minivans to and from practice during the team's annual January camp in Southern California.
Our favorite part of the story came towards the end, when Witz shared an anecdote about RSL's Kyle Beckerman and Nick Rimando providing some roadside assistance to some unfortunate folks involved in a car accident. The passage is below. Top stuff, guys.
From The Times:
"It was not the most dramatic journey of the week. When Kyle Beckerman was driving back from practice Monday, there was an accident not far ahead of his van. He pulled over. Nick Rimando hopped out and, true to his goalkeeping nature, directed traffic. Donovan comforted a distraught young woman involved in the accident; she did not appear to recognize him. The players stayed until the police and paramedics arrived."
Give the entire piece a read, and be sure to check out this photo of Kyle and Nick. It's pure gold.
RSL Captain Kyle Beckerman sat down for a few minutes on Tuesday with Sports Illustrated's Grant Wahl from USMNT camp in Carson, Calif. KB5 and Wahl chatted about the national team, with Kyle sharing what it means to him to be a part of U.S. Head Coach Jurgen Klinsmann's set-up.
Check out the interview above.
It was announced today that Real Salt Lake-Arizona Academy players MF Sebastian Saucedo and GK Christian Herrera have been called up to the U.S. Under-18 Men's National Team to participate in the Copa del Atlantico in Las Palmas, Spain. The U.S. is making its first appearance in the esteemed international tournament that runs from Jan. 30-Feb. 8. The Americans will face Spain on Feb. 4, Argentina on Feb. 5 and the Canary Islands on Feb. 7.
Thirteen players out of the 18-player roster are currently registered with Academy teams, with four MLS Academies represented. The Real Salt Lake-Arizona Academy is the only Academy to have more than one player named to the U-18 squad.
The Claret-and-Cobalt's MF Sebastian Saucedo and GK Christian Herrera were among the 24 players called into U.S. Under-18 MNT Head Coach Javier Perez's January training camp in preparation for the tournament. Saucedo and Herrera have guided the RSL-Arizona U-16 Academy team to a 10-1-1 start through twelve league matches. Saucedo leads the team in scoring with ten goals while Herrera has earned eight clean sheets.
CASA GRANDE, Ariz. – Real Salt Lake had a bit of a lighter day on Tuesday, with Head Coach Jeff Cassar only putting the team through one training session after two-straight double days.
The Claret-and-Cobalt wrapped its training session a little bit before noon, with most of the team then progressing to extra work out on the field with their individual position groups or inside in the gym. The team then had the afternoon off, with several players heading to the movies, some hitting the driving range here at Grande Sports World, and others staying in and relaxing in their rooms.
We'll have footage of small-sided games and shooting drills from Tuesday's practice on the site later today. RSL will get back to work on Wednesday, when they'll take on the RSL-Arizona Academy U-18's at 11:00 a.m. MT at Grande Sports World. The match is open to the public and free to attend.
CASA GRANDE, Ariz. – Real Salt Lake will play its first match of the 2014 preseason on Wednesday, taking on the RSL-Arizona Academy U-18's at 11:00 a.m. MT at Grande Sports World.
Expect RSL Head Coach Jeff Cassar to run out a slew of players during the match; he'll want to get a look at the Claret-and-Cobalt's newcomers and youngsters, along with giving some time to some of the team's older hands. Oh, and please don't read anything into the eventual result. It's just preseason, and any games – at least at this stage – are primarily training exercises.
RSL is in the midst of its second-straight double day, with one session in the books and another set for this afternoon. The Claret-and-Cobalt will get a well-deserved breather from two-a-days on Tuesday, when they'll only have one training session.
We'll have a full match report, highlights and photos from the game on RealSaltLake.com on Wednesday. You can find all of our preseason coverage – including an up-to-date roster and schedule, as well as all of our written and video coverage – in RSL's Preseason Central.
CASA GRANDE, Ariz. - The Day One excitement has worn off, the boots are starting to get worn in, and things are getting serious. Welcome to preseason in Casa Grande.
Real Salt Lake is in the midst of its first double day, currently in between sessions here at Grande Sports World. This morning's practice was strenuous, with Head Coach Jeff Cassar emphasizing defensive responsibilities and tactical shape for about an hour before breaking up the squad for fitness testing.
RSL Strength and Conditioning Coach Dan Barlow divided the group by position for fitness testing, putting the team through a timed long-distance course. Defender Nat Borchers set the pace for the squad, burning through the two-kilometer track ahead of the rest of the team. Tony Beltran, Sebastian Velasquez, Jordan Allen, Olmes Garcia and Jeff Attinella also showed well.
The team will be back at it this afternoon, with Head Coach Jeff Cassar set to put the Claret-and-Cobalt through the second practice of the day at 4 p.m. MT.
CASA GRANDE, Ariz. - Real Salt Lake's Jeff Cassar ran his first training session as Claret-and-Cobalt head coach on Saturday night, putting the team through its opening practice of 2014 with a light session at the RSL-Arizona Academy in Casa Grande, Ariz.
"It feels awesome, it really does," Cassar said of getting his first practice under his belt. "Just to see the guys having fun, touching the ball, seeing smiles on their faces, that was the goal of this first session. Tomorrow it'll get tough."
RSL arrived in Casa Grande on Saturday afternoon, settling in here at Grande Sports World before kicking it around for about 90 minutes in the evening. The team will be back at it on Sunday with a double session.
Real Salt Lake goalkeeper Nick Rimando (@NickRimando) took over @ussoccer earlier on Thursday, answering fan questions for a few minutes from USMNT camp in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Check out a few highlights of Rimando's Twitter takeover below:

RSL midfielder Sebastian Velasquez made a big change late last week, breaking our hearts by cutting his signature rattail last Thursday.
New Hair Cut! Fresh #RSL #NewMe #NewYear14 pic.twitter.com/27eH98ZL9c
— SeBasTian VeLasQueZ (@TiaN_Futbol) January 17, 2014
Velasquez has had a wild 'do since being drafted by RSL in 2012, with his trademark bleached Mohawk/rattail combo earning plenty of love – and a little consternation – across the Wasatch Front. His hair even earned him a nickname among the RSL faithful, with fans dubbing him Rufio in honor of a look-alike character from the early-90's movie Hook.
Here's another peek at Velasquez's new look:

We'll talk to Seba – and his teammates – about rattail-gate when preseason opens later this week. Stay tuned...
Real Salt Lake Head Coach Jeff Cassar stopped by ABC 4's Real Sports Live on Sunday night, sitting down with ABC 4's Wesley Ruff for an interview.
Cassar and Ruff rapped for a few minutes, with RSL's new boss chatting about his hiring process, his desired style of play, his initial thoughts on the job and a few of his favorite things. Check out the full interview up above.
RSL's commentary team of Bill Riley and Brian Dunseth also chatted about RSL, breaking down a few things ahead of the team opening preseason camp on Saturday. Give their segment a watch here.

- Server was a grouch!KMACDined on 9/21/2014We visited last Sunday to celebrate with a birthday brunch for one of our friends. The server seemed bothered that we were put in her section, then any questions or attempts at interacting with her, she was abupt and well, almost rude. It was a Sunday morning, so maybe she had stayed up a little too late the night before. However, the food was great, and the atmosphere is wonderful!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- AmazingOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/14/2014Adobe Rose is always so delicious. It is a place you can go for a date night or in a group with kids and service is great. The food is wonderful and the environment is inviting.Special Features:

- OpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 8/18/2014Friendly crew at Adobe Rose, I picked the Thursday special of pulled pork however that was cancelled and replaced with chicken and beef fajita's which was excellent. There was so much I had to take the rest with me.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- overpriced for mediocre fareOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/13/2014Met up with an old friends daughter along with my wife for dinner. The waiter was attentive and the outdoor area was nice. The food was way overpriced for the quality.Special Features:
- Diamond in the roughRickDined on 8/6/2014To find this quality of food in that region was terrific. I had the filet one night and the chipotle chicken another. Both were great. The service was expeditious and the staff were very helpfulSpecial Features:

- Great find in a small townOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 6/28/2014We went for a group lunch and sat outside where the kids could get down and run around and we could enjoy the scenery. Lovely patio. The owner served us and was incredibly friendly and helpful. While in town we also went there for a dinner date. The meatloaf and salmon were AMAZING. It was very upscale dining in a small town. Very romantic and delicious. Highly recommend this place if you happen to be in Artesia.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- saralouDined on 6/28/2014Very nice, came for birthday, great choice. WE drove from Carlsbad, it was way worth the drive will do it again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dr. Pepper Lamb ChopsFlorajmDined on 5/23/2014Enjoyed the Dr. Pepper lamb - very succulent and tender - highly recommend giving it a try. Tasted the fajitas and they were also delicious.Special Features:
- Great food but to loud and rowdyrcm1960Dined on 5/23/2014My wife and I went to the Adobe to celebrate our anniversary. We ordered steaks that were excellent along with appetizers and wine. Our only complaint was the noise level and the intoxicated patrons at the table beside us. Since this was a special evening, I made reservations and dressed up for the occasion only to realize that the ambience reflected a bar with a rowdy crowd. I would suggest a dress code and those who attend only to drink remain in the patio area.Special Features:
- un-happy mothers day!!Deanna1207Dined on 5/11/2014Limited menu selection, our reservation was irrelevant. still waited 45 min for table. Order took too long, brought wrong food for me and daughter. husbands was right. AND food was room temp to cold. Chicken fried chicken (which i didnt order) was DRY! and they did NOTHING to make it up to us. RUINED my first mothers day!!Special Features:
- Mother's Day lunchMongoDined on 5/11/2014Went to Adobe Rose for Mother's Day lunch. Luckily, we had made reservations, because they were swamped. Got seated at our reservation time. Menu was modified for the Mother's Day crowds, I suppose. The salmon with rice was wonderful. Husband would have liked to try the Prime Rib, but it only came with a prime rib and baked potato and no other sides. It was also priced very high. He got the chicken fried chicken instead, and said it was very good. We will be going back to the Adobe Rose often.Special Features:
- No Kids after 9pmlocals2supportUDined on 5/10/20145/10/14 mothers day dinner, Had dinner inside that was great until we went outside cuz we wanted to enjoy band BUT there was other people that had their kids out of control even after 9pm, screaming, yelling, running through the band, we had a front table just so we could hear them. but yet they were still loud, running in the garden beds the band members even had to mention to kids to stop running between them, in the garden beds. We and other couples were there just for "wait for what" to enjoy their music, company and have the nice atmosphere that we usually get when we go, the fireplace had to be turned off because of the kids getting into, then the kids were trying to steal the money we were putting into the tip jar from the bandSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- delightful hidden gemwesttexasDined on 5/2/2014We ate late lunch in the lovely garden. The servers were very friendly. The special of the day, turkey/green chile burger was delicious. Fries crispy. The place was hard to find because of road construction, and Google map led us to believe it was on other side of baseball complex, but we found it, and were very happy we did. They have live music in the garden some evenings.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great food and service. ANMRedSoxFanDined on 3/13/2014Great food and service. A great birthday dinner for my parents. Nice to have a fresh option for Artesia. Only drawback was that it was a bit dark in our area. Maybe they could fix some of the burnt out lights so you could read the menu easier. Overall a great experience and we will be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A gem in Artesia6966dyxeDined on 2/20/2014We saw the ad in a restaurant magazine in Roswell and decided to visit; we usually just drop into the Well Head when we go to the Ocitilla theater and wanted something different. Very nicely surprised and we'll return for sure.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Thank-you for a very nicelsemDined on 1/30/2014Thank-you for a very nice evening. The special birthday touch for our friend was a nice surpriseSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Service and FoodFlorajmDined on 1/4/2014This was my first experience at the Adobe Rose and I was very pleased with the quality and taste of the food and more so impressed with the service we received from the waitress. She took some time to speak to us on a more personal level asking how we found the restaurant, where we were from, and also meade some excellent recommendations for dinner. I will return to enjoy another meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not what you expect in ArtesialocalDined on 1/3/2014The Adobe Rose is one of the best things to hit Artesia since The Jahva House opened up. Great food, nice atmosphere and awesome outdoor dining when the weather cooperates.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- New restaurant surprise6ppcDined on 10/19/2013Excellent service, menu and preparation. The dessert, creme brulee, was the best in recent memory.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- We dont recommendMEANDMYWIFEDined on 9/27/2013We were seated within minutes of arriving. The outside area was very busy due to there being live music that night. The inside maybe had 3-4 tables seated. It took 30 minutes after being seated for someone (a young man we have known for a while who just happens to work there) to ask if anyone had helped us yet. Took our drink order as well as app and food order. Everything came out looking good. the salad we ordered to share as an app was ok. The grits that came with my wife's entre were lumpy. My fish and chips was not acceptable at all (way too much breading). We have never really been happy with the place and we have given it several tries. We do want to be happy with it as it has petential.
- Love this GEM!SeptoasisDined on 8/24/2013Adobe Rose is such a breath of fresh air for the Artesia-Roswell area and I love it! Great new dishes, lots of variety on the menu and great specials weekly! They bring a great new taste to SE NM! Will always go to Adobe Rose!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ExcellentFriendsDined on 8/10/2013We had a group of nine travel from Roswell for a Saturday night dinner. We had made reservations for 7:00 PM, and were seated immediately upon arriving. We ordered drinks and appetizers first. Everyone loved them. Several different dinner entrees were ordered, and all in the group raved about the food. It was a great dining experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great PlaceRichardDined on 7/28/2013Eat on a Sunday when only a limited menu is available. That being said, it was a good Brunch Menu, and the food was hot, and well prepared. I did see the regular menu and it looks good too. We will be returning. Staff was friendly and we were taken to our table without waiting.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very good menu.signoret76VIPDined on 7/17/2013The menu is imaginative. I had the montecristo which was well prepared. It is a great oasis in between Roswell and Carlsbad.Special Features:
- Service getting worse with time....OpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 6/29/2013The food has been fairly consistant over the last few visits (good)....still by far the best in Artesia. Would like to see the menu changed more often or perhaps more creative daily specials as the main menu is somewhat limited. Presentation of the dishes is very nice though. Wine list while not extensive is much better than most restaurants in the three city area....but the price by the glass is too high considering the price of the wine. The service has been extrodinarily slow the last two visits though. One lunch took almost an hour and a half and the waiter could't figure out how to split a salad for me and my wife. Dinner last Friday service was poor also....staff needs better training as it is getting worse with time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ambiencepolliwogDined on 6/6/2013Who would have guessed that this delightful place was hiding beneath my nose. The food was okay, but the atmosphere and service were great. I told my daughter how much I had enjoyed the evening. She said she had just read a similar comment about the Adobe Rose on lubbock.online. News is traveling, you can't stay hidden long.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- 1st experienceAMarDined on 5/31/2013To be honest, the Spinach-Artichoke appetizer was excellent. The Fruit Gazpacho should have been colder, but the taste was unusual and interesting. The Shrimp Jambalaya was a real disappointment - flavor was fine, but was mostly rice. The others at the table ordered the Enchiladas which according to them weren't bad, but they would not drive back up to Artesia for them. Our waitress gave excellent service and was informative.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- BrunchCarlsbadDined on 5/19/2013Sunday brunch was excellent. A couple had the salmon and they were extatic over how well it tasted. I ate the catfish BLT and I enjoyed it. The atmospher was great. Outdoor dining is very inviting. I would recommend dining here.Special Features:
- Great food!AwesomeDined on 5/17/2013Ok, the food is great but some servers need more experience. They took long to offer me something to drink and forgot to bring an appetizer a friend ordered.

Found December 29, 2012 on Start 'N' Park Blog:
Start 'N' Park Blog is taking a look back at the 2012 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver by driver. This recap will take a look at the driver's stats, the season's highlights, the season's lowlights, what a quick look at next year. This installment takes a look back at Clint Bowyer who finished in the 2nd place in the final standings. 2012 Statistics: Points: 2,361 Position: 2nd Preseason Pick: 19th Starts: 36 Poles: 0 Wins: 3 Top 5s: 10 Top 10s: 23 DNFs: 4 Earnings: $5,546,082 What Was Said Prior To The Season: "I took pity on Clint Bowyer on this one, kicked of our Richard Childress Racing and forced to resurface at Michael Waltrip Racing. My pick of 19th is pretty generous, but Bowyer does have talent and if David Reutimann can get wins for MWR, Bowyer can too. I guess you could say the same about Truex, who has yet to win there either. Well, just call MWR a curse for all drivers. I'm sure 2012 will be a fun year for them." What Happened In 2012: Probably the driver who did the most with a new opportunity was Bowyer. He help elevate Michael Waltrip Racing from weekly pretenders to weekly contenders. It took him until 16 races to get his first win on the season, then to prove it wasn't a fluke, he won at Richmond and Charlotte later in the year. With all that, Bowyer season will be more remembered for his dust up with Jeff Gordon at Phoenix. Despite being taken out at that race, he still wouldn't have won the title with his second place finish at Homestead. Bowyer and company have a lot to be proud of in 2012, including showing the fighting spirit that helped them finish so strong all season long. On To 2013: I hate to say it, but Bowyer getting second might jinx him for 2013. The last few second place finishers just fell off the map their next season, Bowyer is hoping this isn't the case. My thinking is they over performed from where they were, but that doesn't mean they won't be a top 10 team next season.

Showing clinical empathy to patients can improve their satisfaction of care, motivate them to stick to their treatment plans and lower malpractice complaints, found a study published in CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal) (pre-embargo link only) http://www.cmaj.ca/embargo/cmaj090113.pdf.
"Empathy is the ability to understand another's experience, to communicate and confirm that understanding with the other person and to then act in a helpful manner," writes Dr. Robert Buckman, Princess Margaret Hospital and the Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto. "Despite some overlap with other compassionate responses, particularly sympathy, empathy is distinct."
In clinical practice, physicians do not express empathic responses frequently. In a recent study where oncologists were video-recorded speaking with their patients, oncologists only responded to 22% of moments thought to be an empathic opportunity. Another more recent study involving oncologists and lung cancer patients showed the physicians responding to only 11% of empathic opportunities.
There is new evidence indicating that empathy is an important medical tool and it can be acquired and taught in medical school. "Clinical empathy is an essential medical skill that can be taught and improved, thereby producing changes in physician behaviour and patient outcomes."
"Our profession now needs to incorporate the teaching of clinical empathy more widely into clinical practice at all levels beginning with the selection of candidates for medical school," write the authors. "The behavioral aspects of empathy the empathic response can be assessed and integrated into medical schools' core communication skills training."
The authors conclude that physicians must also model an empathetic approach to patient care in the teaching environment.

Marc and Bill are known all over the country thanks to Growing Bolder TV and Growing Bolder Radio. And we absolutely love hearing from all of you that Growing Bolder has changed your life, or made you think about what aging means to you, or has inspired you to make a difference.
We always say that we're not doing any of this for the glory, the recognition or the kind words. We're doing it because we're passionate and motivated by the ordinary people doing extraordinary things in every city of America. And we love shining the spotlight on others.
That's why we really enjoyed speaking with a packed room of people at a recent Life at UCF meeting, on the campus of the nation's second-largest university.
I wanted to try and capture just a snippet of what it's like to be in the audience when Bill and Marc take the podium so I grabbed a camera and shot this video (apologies to our fabulous Director of Production Jason Morrow, who was on another shoot that day — can you tell I'm better at writing than shooting?):
The presentation focused on our decision to leave traditional television programming — the crime and grime — and focus on positive, uplifting stories of people and places that are truly inspirational. And the audience seemed to get it … I saw a lot of heads nodding and smiles.
Now I'd love to know — what do you think of TV news these days? How often do you watch, and what do you like/not like? If you were the manager of a newsroom, what kinds of stories would you choose to run?

David and Victoria Beckham [Getty]
Get your money boxes at the ready guys because it looks like you could be in with a chance of getting your hands on some very exciting Brand Beckham memorabilia. According to reports in the Daily Mirror this morning, having sold Beckingham Palace (sob) a couple of weeks ago, Victoria and David are now planning to have a massive auction to get rid of some of their unwanted goods.
Apparently 'Posh and Becks' as they were formerly known won't be able to fit all of their stuff into their new house (surprising that they didn't just buy a bigger one) and so will host a big auction for charity before the new owners take the keys to their former kingdom.
So what could you be in with a chance of getting? Here's a list of the items expected to go under the hammer…
1. Posh and Beck's Royal Thrones
It's pretty weird to think now that when Victoria and David got married they had giant custom gold thrones made for themselves to sit on. As much as we'd love to, we can't imagine they would do that over again…
2. Designer Clothes
Given that we don't think we have ever seen Victoria or David wear the same thing on more than about three occasions – MAXIMUM – we're imagining that they have got a lot of clothing between the two of them. And that's not even including Harper's amazing wardrobe. We're hoping they get rid of those matching leather outfits they had – remember them?
3. Kitchen Items
Apparently the Beckham's aren't planning to do much cooking in their new home. According to reports they are going to sell off loads of their kitchen wares – well, with their earnings we guess they can afford to eat out.
4. House Hold Appliances
We mean, who wouldn't want a hover that had been touched by David Beckham?!

Maguire - Stunning $24 Premiums For Gold In Shanghai
Today whistleblower Andrew Maguire spoke with King World News about the stunning premiums being paid in Shanghai for gold, and what price investors and traders need to watch to see buy stops triggered on the upside in the gold market. This is the third and final in a series of interviews with Maguire lifting the curtain on what is going on behind the scenes in the ongoing gold and silver war which continues to rage. Below is Part III of Maguire's extraordinary interview.
Whistleblower Andrew Maguire: "We were already hearing rumors two weeks ago of another CME broker default (when gold was pushing $1,700), and I think something had to be done. Up until the Monday when China went on holiday, these dips were being aggressively bought, forcing the bullion banks on the bid to meet every allocation.
This is why gold couldn't break down below the mid-$1,650s. So what did they (bullion banks) do? They waited until the paper markets had no competition. Waited until China was on holiday and most of Asia was closed, and then they targeted absolutely visible long stops.
This (subsequent action) is drawing in auto-traded, managed money short interest, and essentially this is what they have started to cover into....
Continue reading the whistleblower Andrew Maguire interview below...
To hear the man with over 40 years of experience in the resource
markets and how he is positioning his clients to weather
the current financial storm click on the logo:
"You can be absolutely sure, Eric, that the bullion banks are short covering into this supply. Their footprints are all over it. I mean the premiums in Shanghai this morning were over $24 an ounce for gold. We're (trading) $1,608 (for gold) in Shanghai. The paper market longs have been tricked into selling. Obviously the managed money and the specs are now being tricked into short selling. Who do you think is on the long side of those trades?
These bullion banks have actually successfully transferred massive short positions into very weak hands. And this next week is going to provide large short fuel above the market. As soon as this leveraged selling is insufficient to meet the bullion bank buying, which will happen, if not today it will be early next week.
They are simply going to run out of sell power vs what the bullion banks are forced to buy because the physical market is so strong."
Eric King: "Andrew, as you know they've been all over the mainstream media trumpeting the end of the bull market. They are talking $1,200 gold and claiming a collapse is in front of us here, your thoughts on that?"
Maguire: "Yes, you've seen an absolute crescendo of it. It's by no coincidence either, talking about the 'Death Cross,' (and saying) Soros sold. Soros sold a measly 18 tons last year. You don't think the guy is on the bid now?
Do you remember when you and I had this talk at the end of last year when all the rumors were that Paulson was selling? Do you remember that you and I said 'that's impossible. I guarantee he's not selling.' Sure enough he had not sold. He's the one that's holding on to his gold position.
But the disinformation out there is amazing. This bottoming process happens as they (the bullion banks) transfer their short positions into the weaker hands. Because the physical market is extremely well bid here, what you are going to see is a rapid turnaround.
There is a huge amount of short fuel above the market. I see the managed money short position, and it's in bubble territory. This short fuel above the market is going to force even more short covering activity because once they see prices move into the $1,600s again, you are going to see some stop limit orders coming out of the central banks. The discount is over at that point."

Take the Module 4 Pre-Test now!
Goal of Module 4: To provide methods, examples, and tools with which to carry out your HIV/AIDS prevention program.
In order to provide an effective HIV prevention intervention for Native people, you will need to lay a strong community foundation and apply intervention programs in a culturally meaningful way. One option is to tailor existing interventions to fit the unique needs of your Native community. This module includes an overview of program components, information on CDC's Advancing HIV Prevention Initiative, descriptions of evidence-based interventions, and an introduction to storytelling as a prevention strategy.
To build a Native health or prevention program, you first need to understand the core cultural values of your focus population. Be sure to show respect for ancestral knowledge, current leadership, and the role of elders in community decisions. Take time to plan your programs with the input of key members of your community. These steps will help to make your prevention activities more effective.
Successful prevention programs for Native communities often differ from programs for non-Native communities. While Native programs use common tools such as outreach, education, counseling, and testing, they deliver services in a unique way.
The Alaska Federation of Natives (AFN) sponsors an Elders & Youth Conference that brings generations together. The conference is a significant part of the Alaska Native community. In 2006, the Elders & Youth Conference had a record number of attendants: 1,032 people gathered to interact, share knowledge, develop friendships, and strengthen ties among Alaska Natives.1
The Native American AIDS Project (NAAP), a San Francisco-based program, offers a weekly Drumming Circle that fosters community, responsibility, and self-respect among urban Native people. Many Native people experience stigma as a result of their drug and disease-related experiences; NAAP provides clients with an opportunity to return to elements of traditional Native culture.

Gardena Bowling Alley: what to order?
A group will be going to the Gardena Bowling Alley Coffee shop on Thursday.
As I peruse past posts, all I see is the bacon fried rice. I'll be sure to order that, but is this one of those one-item restaurants? Is there anything else there ono to order? Thanks .
Nomo is trying to make an MLB roster again. Go NOMO!!!!!
One of these two sites or both should have plenty of info on Gardena Bowl and many other plate lunch/hawaiian places in and around Los Angeles.
I usually get the char siu fried saimin. They also have their own special Portuguese sausage patties special with rice and eggs which is pretty good. Surprisingly, the Japanese combo plates like tempura and beef teriyaki rivals many traditional Japanese restaurants. It comes with miso soup or salad plus tsukemono and tea just like the big boys. It's always crowded so they must be doing something right?
re: nomo_fan
"Coffee shop" is throwing you for a loop. Yes, its a coffee shop in a bowling alley. Forget the bacon fried rice-- check out the specials board and peruse the Japanese combination platters I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. I go for the simple things like their home made Portuguese sausage patties (secret recipe) and Hawaiian style pancakes.
re: DiveFan
For legibility, here is the menu uploaded as a photo attachment.
EDIT - it is displayed identically (and poorly) like the pics in the place link. Arggh!
Bacon Fried Rice, Two Egg Scrambled or over easy on top, w/ a side of portuguese sausage......oh baby....comfort food at its best. Tonkatsu, Tempura, and Saimin are all noteworthy as well.
Gardena Bowl has always been consistently good. TNT in Torrance is another good place since they originated from GB a few years ago. My wife adores their special fried rice which I believe is called the Hawaiian royale(?) which has Portuguese sausage, char siu, and everything you can think of. My personal favorite is still the char siu fried saimin which I think is enough for a sumo wrestler. Check out the daily specials on the wall to see what they have. Their teriyaki and tempura dishes are something you'd find at high end Japanese restaurants. Don't let the coffee shop name fool you.
re: Clinton
The "T" in TNT is the daughter of the former owner of Gardena Bowl Coffee shop. When the owner sold the business he agreed not to open another place to compete with Gardena Bowl, so the daughter opened it up? Same great Hawaiian grindz....some say better than the currently run Garden Bowl Coffee Shop. I can't tell the difference.
Loco Moco with Portuguese patties for me.

re: monku
Just went for lunch yesterday. I had the Aloha Royal (I think that is what it is called) that is scrambled eggs w/sausage, chau siu and one more meat??? not sure. Anyways, it covers several scoops of white rice. We also had a TNT fried rice to share. These were all very good and I especially liked the sausage. Finally, my friend had the wonton mein. she gave me a wonton, it was eh, but the broth was nice and flavorful w/out being too salty.
re: justagthing
Went with friends on a Thursday. Sorry, but I was a bit underwhelmed. It was nice because it tasted "like mom used to make" but nothing stood out as spectacular. We had the bacon fried rice and the pork dofu. Solid and good but not wow like Musha or Gaja or Shin sen gumi. It's like a Kotohira solid.
Go NOMO!!!!!
re: nomo_fan
Yes, agreed, not like Musha or SSG, but then again, it is not an izakaya but Hawaiian. So really you can't compare.
re: nomo_fan
You still have to realize that it IS just a coffee shop! This is not a first line high-end gourmet restaurant but a comfort fast food place catering to mainly locals. I think the price is right which is commensurate to the clientele. Next time you're in the area, try the Cherrystone one block north of Gardena Bowl. Their prime rib on weekends have no rival for $11.95!
re: Clinton
Thanks. I know that it is a coffee shop, but I was waiting for "soul-transforming" fried rice. I felt the bacon was not crisp enough, and if I would go there again, I would order it with weiners instead. I know that I'm in the minority here, but I don't find the ramen at Daikokuya all that special (compared to Shin sen gumi) but man, Daikokuya's fried rice was a WOW!!!
re: nomo_fan
You like fried rice....try Koraku in Little Tokyo. They don't have bacon fried rice but probably one of their most popular dishes. They got it with an omelette and gravy on top or curry fried rice. I think its better than Daikokya's.

The Ultimate11
February 1, 2013 by A Girl Like Me
I wish I could sit in a room with you all and have a deep conversation about idols and our hearts and where to go from here. I know it is very overwhelming to look within and have God bring to light the desires in your heart that you have placed before Him. So you see there needs to be a change.. but how? How do you rid yourselves of idols?
First of all, let me be the first to say that I don't have all the answers to this. I'm still learning myself. But what I do know is this… God loves you in spite of your idols. You first need to come to realize that. Nothing can separate you from the love of God. So let this be the very thing that drives you to change. Trying to be good enough for God can be an idol in itself… so once we realize that we are already loved – than the striving to be better will not be the thing that gives us motivation but the overwhelming realization of His love towards us will bring about true change and humility. It's not something that you can do on your own… you need the power of God to remove them and give you grace.
So- recognize and identify your idols.
Know that God loves you even when you place things before Him.
Let the love of Christ be what drives you to change.
If an idol is something good that we have made an ultimate… what does it look like for you to make Christ once again your ultimate?? Idols are promising you the very things they cant provide and yet God is offering you the very happiness, acceptance, joy, love, provision, security, peace, and hope that you are looking for. What would even happen if you got the very things you desire most? There would always be voids, there would always be something else that you need in order to be happy, and there would always be lack of contentment. With God as the ultimate desire of our heart, we can find rest in knowing that all of our needs are met and all of our wants are already fulfilled in the blood of Christ when He died on the cross.
"As many have learned and later taught, you don't realize Jesus is all you need until Jesus is all you have." – Tim Keller
I encourage you all to read Counterfeit Gods by Tim Keller. I, myself, have yet to read it all but I look forward to more hope and guidance on this matter and I hope that you will join me. I couldn't say it any better than him.
As for today- fall to your knees and confess your idols before the Lord. Lay them down at His feet and ask for His help in changing these beautiful desires from the ultimate gain to a desire that just leads you back to Jesus. I need Jesus. You need Jesus.
11 thoughts on "The Ultimate"
Unfortunately, I definitely have the idol of trying to be good enough for God. it's crippling. It's horrible. And I struggle with it constantly. But I think that the only way for it to go away is to say, God, you love me. You sent Jesus to die for my sins. So I'm going to lay it at your feet, and I'll take it back sometimes, but help me know You will love me anyway
I recently read Counterfeit Gods by Tim Keller and it was a very good book and I would highly recommend it.
It's not wrong to be better, but this shouldn't be the thing that "motivates" us. Thanks for this line:
"the striving to be better will not be the thing that gives us motivation but the overwhelming realization of His love towards us will bring about true change and humility."
God bless :)

I have a unique situation. I've self harmed two or three times but then I stopped. Now I'm so focused on it and I can't stop thinking about it. I wonder what it would be like to feel the blade against my skin. I hate myself for thinking that way and fixating on it but I feel like its consuming me. I dont think i would tryvit but im not sure. I can't see a counselor either or talk to someone about it because my parents have no idea about self harming or pretty much any of my life for a while now. I don't know what to do.

Should you buy Santa's Village?
I bought my Santa's Village last Christmas mainly because I wanted the Santa costume for Homer, it's the same price this year as it was then, 200 donuts which isn't exactly cheap.
So let's have a look at some pros and cons for buying or not!
- It earns $300 a day and 30 XP.
- Santa Homer earns money and XP at the premium rate.
- It looks pretty nice surrounded by snow and reindeer.
- It's Christmas and Homer looks awesome walking around dressed as Santa.
- Homers costume has many amusing outside tasks, he even gets to fly a sleigh!
- It is a limited time building, after Christmas it could be gone for good! Or until next Christmas.
- Santa's Village has no animation.
- It's pretty expensive at 200 donuts.
- There is another Santa in town and he is free!
- Santa Homer won't help you earn gift cards, Santa Flanders will.
- No character apart from Homer interacts with Santa's village and he only has one task there.
- Homers costume can only really be used for a month, after the snow has gone it looks out of place.
Last year buying Santa's Village was the only way to have a Santa walk your town this year there is a free option! I would probably only buy this if your collecting Homer costumes or if you have money to burn. It is a nice addition at Christmas time but for the rest of the year its a bit pointless the choice is yours though.
Here's what I did with my Santa's Village.
Let me know if your planning to buy it or perhaps you got it last year!

Mason on Way In; S.Ellis Has Left the BuildingPosted by on August 7, 2011 – 1:36 pm
Update, 2:35 p.m. ET
There's been a net movement of 26 years of NFL experience over the past 24 hours. Fifteen years of wideout wisdom has arrived in the form of free agent WR Derrick Mason (who physically may not arrive on the Jets' training camp field until Monday).
And 11 years of devotion to the Green & White's defensive line was reported this morning to be departing with word that DE Shaun Ellis agreed to a one-year deal with the New England Patriots.
Mason first. Even though the former Titans and Ravens standout was not expected to practice today, the first effect of his arrival has been seen here with the switch of rookie Jeremy Kerley from uniform number 85 to 11.
"D-Mace has got to do all the paperwork and stuff — it's like buying a house," said head coach Rex Ryan, who was still beaming that the new No. 85, a former Ravens acquaintance of his, will soon be out on the field with the Jets' rebuilt WR corps.
"That was obviously some exciting news for us, getting that kind of receiver," Ryan said. "I almost look at it like we have three starters. That three-wide package is going to be something when you can have Derrick, Santonio Holmes, obviously Plaxico Burress, and Dustin [Keller]. That's going to be tough on anybody. That's going to be fun to watch, that's for sure. His role is not to come in here as the No. 3 receiver, it's to come in and build with what we already have with those two guys."
Mason has already turned 37 this year, but he's one of those players to whom age is just a number. He's gone 11 consecutive seasons with at least 60 receptions and 750 yards. He needs 76 more receptions to join the NFL's 1,000-reception club, which currently has only eight members. And he has gone eight straight seasons playing in all 16 regular-season games and has never played in fewer than 13 games in his 15 years.
We'll hear more from Mason once he arrives here in Florham Park, N.J.. We may not hear from Shaun Ellis if the word from the northeast is accurate. The Big Katt's teammates for the last couple of years were sorry to hear the rumors.
"I respect Shaun more than as a football player," said nose Sione Pouha. "I respect him as a father and as a former teammate of mine. He was here when I first got here, so he had such a huge influence on me. He deserves the respect to make that decision."
"When I came in, Shaun was a big brother to me," said Ropati Pitoitua, who's playing at Ellis' spot on the D-line. "He's a great leader and mentor. I learned a lot from him. We all know it's a business. It is what it is. I wish him the best."
And Marcus Dixon, who's gotten a head of steam going on the inside this camp, seemed genuinely moved when I became the first to tell him that Shaun was gone.
"Shaun is definitely a Jet," Dixon said after shaking his head. "He took me under his wing, taught me how to play up here. Not having him here, it's sad, but we've got to move on. The Patriots are fortunate to be getting a guy like that."
Ryan, after coaching Ellis (who rose to 72.5 career sacks, third-most in franchise history, last season) for two years, knows the Big Katt will be ready to pounce on the Jets and the Green & Whtie on him.
"I have a great deal of respect for Shaun. He made the Pro Bowl my first year here, and the biggest game he played last year, we all remember, was against New England," Ryan remembered. "He is a tough guy and he's going to be missed."
But Ryan reminded, there's only so much "pie" to go around each year, "and we're pretty much right down to it. Bringing in Derrick, it's hard for me to see that we'll be bringing in too many more players, if any. I'm happy with the team we have. This, in my opinion, is an outstanding football team. Now obviously we've got to stay healthy and all that, work every day, but I think this is a great football team."
Rex Cetera
Speaking of Plaxico, Burress is out at practice now and in pads for the first time as a Jet, but he's only going to work individual drills. "I really want to go slow," the coach said. "If you have him go through this and there's a setback, it may cost you two weeks. If you go at the individual things, we feel like we'll be able to get through that and progress that way." But, Rex added, Burress "seems to be really grasping the offense."
The coach on last year's No. 1 pick, CB Kyle Wilson: "He's a different guy, a different guy. His confidence is there, he's stronger, and that only adds to his confidence. I think he's going to have more of an impact on special teams, and I also see him obviously being our nickel. He's stepping up. I see him over there working on his blitzing and stuff. He's carrying himself differently than he did."
Ryan on RT Wayne Hunter: "If you were to pick one guy you were going to take with you, I have a lot of candidates I feel really good about having my back, but Wayne would be the first I'd choose."

By Jetsman on Aug 7, 2011 | Reply
Really? Ellis doesn't get re-signed either… I felt this coming. When a player has an offer to come back out there for that long of a time, he's not coming back. We're missing a great player, but I'm really confident Muhammad Wilkerson will step up. I was hoping we could have Ellis, Pouha, and Wilkerson as our starters, but DeVito isn't that bad and hopefully we get him and our huge 6'8 Samoan Ropati to step up this year. I mean, when has a Samoan ever been bad in the NFL?

I am completely disgusted that ellis signed with new england.I think this is a real slap in the face to the jets and more importantly their fans.I can not see any reason why he would be bitter towards the jets.They made him at one time one of the highest paid defensive linemen in the league.I am very sure he could have signed with any number of teams in the NFL who would want his services.This is truely disgusting.

I just knew that NE was gonna sign Ellis. This was as much to help them as it was to hurt us. Ellis has been a thorn in NE's side for years. I think it's shameful he had to sign with them. I'm embarrassed to be a jets fan today.

J Kerley is going to be a big time player for many years to come, hopefully all with the Jets. His attitude and the way he carries himself are impressive. Voluntarily giving up his jersey number for D Mason may not seem like a big thing to many people but it is great to see younger players have respect for proven NFL vets. He also has three great receivers to learn from. Hopefully we'll see some bombs this year, does anybody even throw the bomb anymore??
By kk on Aug 7, 2011 | Reply
This is really sad and a little ridiculous that we let a guy like this go and especially to the Pats. They've really let alot of the true Jet leaders go this year and while they keep saying they're excited for the team there are alot of big holes to fill.
While Ellis was getting up there in age he always came up big when we needed him and hopefully this doesn't come back to bite us like Woodhead last year. Oh well let's keep our fingrers crossed and good luck to not only Ellis but Cotchery as well two class acts that will be very difficult to replace!!
By MarkP@JetsReality on Aug 7, 2011 | Reply
Hold off on "Ellis" panic. For every Woodhead BB signs, there is also a Victor Hobson that doesn't work out. Ellis was a very good Jet (last from Tuna's draft) but his best days are behind him. Yes he made some great plays & sacks in PO but his age at his position works against him more than Mason. This was a good move. If Ropati is 100% this helps tons. Wilkerson looks good but hold off until he plays another team. DeVito is getting better every year. The Ellis & Cotchery cuts were good moves. The bad move so far is being stood up at the alter by Asomugha costing us B. Smith. The big issue no one talks about is LB's. We need to replace Thomas & Scott ASAP. No impact plays from either one or pass coverage.

Come on now guys ,Ellis though really good back in his 4-3 years under Herm and a true Jet giving it his all always , his production in the 3-4 has been mediocre at best ,2 years ago i would have been like what the H$$L with him going over to NE , but we watched a 10 year Jet hater come play for us last season in J.Taylor..SO there is no loyalty especially if Cat chose NE…We will be faster and more athletic at end now with Wilkerson and Devito Pitouia , and wouldnt be surprised to see Trevor Pryce back either , The Kid K.Ellis hopefully will be formidable too , at NT with Pouha , I was never worried about our front 7 , it was making sure the back end got back ,and with A-Cro back and smith and Pool ,Wishing DIGBO back, and Jimmy Leonard!

I can't believe that some are accepting Mason as if he were the second coming of Wesley Walker. He is a 37 year old WR people. It was two years ago when we heard the rumbling about him retiring. Don't get me wrong, I wish I was 37 years old again, but for a WR in the NFL, you are old!! As for Ellis? two things, where is the Rex factor? Where are all those UFAs who were supposed to be tripping over each other to get to play for him? Secondly, for Ellis, it just tells you a little about loyalty in sports. There is none, in either direction. The only place you will find it is in the fans.You have to wonder where sports would be with out that.
By scjoe on Aug 7, 2011 | Reply
There is a lot of potential along the D-line with Wilkerson-Ellis-Pitoitua followed by Pouha-DeVito-Dixon and a lot of young depth behind them. What we have to find out is how long does it take for that potential to translate into great line play. Barring any serious injury we are set along the D-line for the next 3-5 years. Next order of business is the LB corp. Aside from Harris this current group of starters don't have that 3-5 year window, nor do the safety's. I think if you had to choose an area of the team that will start slow it would be both the D-line and the WRs. Just a wild guess.

Been a Jet fan for the past 15+ years.. It is getting hard to root for this team with Rex at the helm.. A players loyalty is too the union that represents him, not an organization, and we see why when a guy like Cotchery gets pushed out the door, and you can't come to an agreement with Shaun Ellis. A player is free to sign wherever he wants and the HEAD COACH of a team says that he's not gonna wish a 11 year veteran well. This guy tells everyone how much better and more talented his team is then everyone else, every single day,but yet he cant wish a player well? Thats classless .. Even though he went to the Pats, you wish him well, because according to you, you have the best team in football, so what would it matter where he signed?
By Actinlikeicare on Aug 7, 2011 | Reply
After Cotchery got released on the TEAM website on the front page it said " Cotchery asks for release, he gets it ".. CLASSLESS MOVE by the Jets… Sick of trying to sign every big name free agent, sick of all the arrogance.. just go out and win football games.. and help Sanchez complete a pass during the regular season… That would be nice….

I give T'baum a "D" with these FA moves. This was handled poorly. All we needed was a pass rusher, keep the guys we had and replace Shotty. Look at who we lost and who got in return. I'm not excited like Rex. We're definitely weaker than 2010. It's also strange that Ellis and Cotch opted out. They probably felt slighted. FINS and PATS now have insiders who know our playbook. It's a shame. The only thing that will make all of this right and prove me wrong is to win the Superbowl. Anything less will be a failure.

scjoe, it's not just about the number. Mason has practically never missed a game, let's see how many J-Co plays or misses this yr. As for Ellis, like Tom, Walt, Troy and others are saying, how much more than what we offered could the Pats have given him? He's still a good enough player to have his moments but like Troy points out, he's one of the older guys who kept getting blown out last yr when the middle of the field looked like swiss cheese, we need much younger and faster guys on the front 7. I wish we had some more of that at LB but again I'd rather take a shot on Westerman and some of the UDFA's than pray for Taylor to play any better than he did last yr. Speed on both sides of the ball is something we've really needed for yrs.
By Jet Fan Since '64 Tom on Aug 7, 2011 | Reply
Howie D, PIT is bringing in J-Co today. He'd be a #5 behind Wallace, Ward, Sanders, and Brown and by the way, the Steelers are also getting a good camp out of none other than Wes Lyons, the 6'8″ WR from West Virginia that we tried out last yr. On the Jets J-Co would've certainly been a #3 if he was healthy and we wouldn't have gone after Mason. I don't understand why some people just automatically chalk these changes up to management's coldness, cheapness, or whatever. Like Leon on SEA, who has a good chance of rarely carrying the ball at RB again in his career, J-Co will rue the day he left the Jets if he ends up a #5 on PIT. Actin, S Ellis is the one who lacks class, not Rex. Go root for the Pats if it bothers you that much.

Rex and Mr.T have actually have been rebuilding a team and been keeping them competitive at the same time the team has gotten young at receiver after all Holmes is 26 and they drafted two WRs also Turner from last year is still on the team and was a third round pick the veterans guys Plax and Mason are winners and those type of signing last like 1-2yrs tops but it gives the younger guys knowledge which I see nothing wrong with. RBs younger Dline younger two cover CBs under 30 oline young except Moore but 1 or 2 vets are always good on the line now all the team needs is to get younger at Linebackers and another safety wouldnt hurt. J-co wanted to leave and Ellis could have came back plus Rex didnt hand pick these dudes at the end of the day

Dag JETS fans are so whiny I was apart of that club but I've changed my outlook the JETS players from prior regiments are signed and are on the teams REX is the coach not you or me from what see is they have been doing a pretty good job of rebuilding right before are eyes and keeping them very competitive at the same time we've have gotten younger in a lot of position these guys they bring in aren't signed to mega contracts 1-2yrs top for those players who left I wish them the best.Look at it people we just need 2 get younger Linebacker and maybe safety. We got WRs Turner Holmes and 2 draftees RBs Greene Mcknight Powell Dline Oldest is pouha 2 cover corners under 30 the team is good shape overall so stop WHINING

We lost a lot of good players and it may look like this team is weaker than it was last year, but there is nothing the Jets can do. We have to cut players to pay for Santonio and Cro's contract. We were right at the salary cap limit to start the season. A lot of fans dont understand the business side of this sport. Im sure if there was no cap that the Jets can easily absorb all the players that they want like the Yankees do in baseball.

Can we also stop this nonsense about getting guys from the Pats, the Fins, etc. "so we can study their playbook"? To look at just us and the Pats, both teams have been doing that intensely now since at least O'Connell/Izzo/Woodhead/now Ellis and if by now they don't know each other's playbooks backwards and forwards I don't know when they ever will. Matt, your posts are my favorites today with your brilliant main point about getting younger and staying competitive at the same time. And Mystery, not only are you right about the cap but the cap is less than it was before the uncapped yr, so I don't know what people expect.

I had a feeling that Shaun Ellis would be cut or go else where I also kinda thought that DE, Bryan Thomas would be cut as well. I hope that Wikerson can get the start at DE, I wasn't so happy with this pick I was hoping to get DT Phillip Taylor. I really would had like have gotten DE, Christian Ballard he sound it like the right player for the Jets. I really hope see the Jets second Rd pick get the start this year i really like what I seen from him. And if Wikerson not ready to get the starting job would like to see Calvin Pace replace Ellis at DE.

We are still 9 mill under the cap i believe, is there somebody we can sign that will produce a pass rush? I think the Jets should really be worried about this.

We all knew we couldn't hold onto everyone from last year. Would you rather we lost Santonio? Cromartie? or didn't sign Harris to a longterm deal? Then we'd really hear people complain. The Jets did well with what they had to work with $-wise.
We lost Edwards, who might be suspended for part of theis year, and wanted insane $ from us. Plaxico will be a nice replacement. Lost Brad Smith, great kick-returner, but not a starter. We lost J-Co, who we all love, but he just had back surgery and we can't hold on to everyone!! Mason is a nice replacement. And finally we lost Ellis – he was a true Jet, yes, but he had only one great game last year and is gettin' old. We drafted a couple big guys to step in. I think Mike T did fine!

I'm starting to get irked. First we let Woodhead go to the Pats, then J-Co wants out? Now Ellis is a Pat? What is going on? Did the Jets not handle the situation right or is Ellis being a traitor? We may never know, but I have been sick about this all day.

In Ellis's case, money talks. Also, you can add a little emotion. I wish him nothing well in NE, he is a traitor. If he went to any other team (excluding steelers and dolphins), I honestly don't think any Jet fan would have minded because I do understand the Jets kind of slapped him in the face with a minimum salary. I think that's insulting of our organization, however, the fact that he went to Belichiks house is even more disgusting. I almost cried when I heard this, really disappointing. I approve of change but I think this team has changed a little too much this season. God, I miss Cotchery, best of luck to him, wish j-co never left.

jetsfannmo, all I can do to make you feel better is to remind you of all the predictions of disaster of the last 2 yrs going all the way back to folks who thought Clemens should start over Sanchez. (Where you at, Row? We need your input on all these recent moves.) Yet we came very close to the SB both yrs. I'll believe it when I see it with McKnight and Wilson (and Cro), but this yr's reports are that they're looking much more aggressive and impressive in camp. Far too early to start unambiguously saying it's gonna be a bad yr for the Jets. At least wait for the second half of the Cowboys game.

It is too bad Ellis has decided to leave however it is not the end of the world – he is not the second coming of Deacon Jones. Ellis was a solid player however his fit was never really a 3-4 end. People obviously remember the game he had against New England in the playoffs however those efforts were far and few between. Rex is not stupid and would not let Ellis walk unless he felt he was clearly on the downside and had little left to offer. We lost a locker room presence however it is time some of the younger players step up and take more of a leadership role if we are going to be competitive for a while.They still have some money to do things whether it be on current players available or waiting until the final cut and pick somebody up.

Thanks for your great post, Budd. Cimini said the same thing as you the other day, that he'd rather have Holmes and Cro than Edwards and Aso and I agree. I was as big on signing both SH and BE as anybody but I couldn't have predicted this ridiculous free agency situation and how it would affect both players and teams. What would've bothered me is if we'd lost guys and not replaced them, like the Giants, or not even tried to get them, like the Browns. Under the circumstances I think we did pretty good and like I keep saying, if losing some vets makes us depend more on draft picks and other young guys more, I'm all for that. Would be nice to see a Jet Rookie of the Year one of these yrs, but you gotta play 'em for them to earn that award.

Ellis reportedly signed a $4 Million Dollar 1yr deal with NE plus $1 Mil in incentives. Lessee… 4 mil versos $910,000…hmnn… Its about the Money, nothing more.

Jet Fan Since '64 Tom: Low blow there, telling me to root for the Pats. We're all passionate about our JETS, and just like you I've been waiting decades for a ticker-tape parade, so I hope you'll respect my opinion the way I respect yours. We can all argue pro and con about any player and any move. I didn't say we're not going to win, I'm simply saying that it'll be more difficult. That's my opinion, and I'm sticking to it.

I'm just joking around, Howie D, but I suppose telling someone on this site to root for the Pats IS the ultimate insult. Still, your post was filled with despair that just about every move management has made is wrong, and that stuff usually gets me typing quickly. I usually think Jet Fan Defeatism goes back to the Namath years, when we lived in fear of knee injuries and late-thrown pass interference flags. Sometimes I wonder if it's more than that, something rooted in the New York City culture of the post-World War I-Depression-World War II years, in which catastrophe was always lurking in the minds of American immigrants. Anyway, back to football, no, we didn't make the wrong moves with J-Co or Ellis and I look forward to the new guys.

Correction: What we lived in even more fear of during the Namath years, aside from further damage to Joe's knees, was late-thrown HOLDING flags, before the zebras figured out that you could probably call holding on just about every NFL down if you really wanted to.

Remember, we miss the guys we know when they leave, before we get to know the guys who replace them. Talk to me about missing Ellis when Wilkerson starts piling up the sacks.
I'm just grateful Mike T. seems to be awake at the wheel and know what he's doing. This year's draft class might turn out to be one of the great ones.

Looks like Bill Belichick has gotten the best of both worlds w/ELLIS. Another decent, big veteran for depth to add to his new 4/3 D. & someone who is VERY familiar w/the JETS D. Did Belichick grap up Ellis mainly for the depth or mainly to have an insider that knows the JETS D? (Giving Belichicks history & integrity, i'd pick my 2nd guess). All this & the JETS has lost ELLIS & not a single pass rusher to replace him. Yes, they did pick up in the draft but where's the experience?

Back at ya, Howie D! Jazz-bo, thanks for the cool insight on the way it really works! We heard all kinds of wailing and doomsaying on this site when TJ and Leon were let go. You almost never hear it now. Funny, I had a similar hope/premonition/fantasy of Wilkerson getting two or three sacks in a game and some announcer pointing out that's more than Ellis got all last yr. Wouldn't be surprised to see it happen, given the way Rex is not just talking about Wilkerson and K Elllis but actually counting on them to perform. He must know something and by the way, it was good to see him admit yesterday that we were a little hesitant to use Wilson at DB last yr. I'd say more than a little hesitant, but point taken…

When we start the season rapping DALLAS right on the nose by a score of 35-14 a lot of what has already been said in this thread will be thoroughly and completely forgotten.

@ Davetherave, I sure hope so. I love nothing more than to be wrong when it comes to being negative w/a JETS situation
