Report: Former UM lineman Seantrel Henderson tested positive for marijuana at NFL Combine
Seantrel Henderson, whose off-field issues overshadowed his talent at UM, could see his draft stock sink following a report that he failed a drug test at the Combine.
Former University of Miami offensive tackle Seantrel Henderson just can't seem to stay out of trouble. And as a result, his reputation and projected NFL Draft status keep plummeting.
ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter reported Monday via Twitter that Henderson "tested positive at [the] combine for smoking marijuana, per league sources."
Schefter said NFL teams were "notified last week."
When contacted by phone Monday, Henderson's agent, David Levine, said he was unable to discuss the situation.
Henderson came to UM from St. Paul, Minn., in 2010 as the reigning USA Today High School Offensive Player of the Year. He battled everything from suspension to homesickness to back surgery to a car accident to the deaths of a family member and close friend during his four years with the Canes.
He was suspended multiple times by UM coach Al Golden, most notably for marijuana use, he told the Miami Herald the week of the Senior Bowl in late January.
"I was partying a little bit too much at times,'' the soft-spoken, kindly disposed 6-7 tackle said that day when asked to explain his multiple suspensions. "I had got into trouble a couple of times for marijuana. I just put all that behind me."
Apparently not, though he has been publicly contrite more than once. A little more than a year ago he said, "To be honest, I just know I don't have too much time left for any mistakes, for any mess-ups. The sand is just going through the little time glass. Every day I wake up, I've got to do everything right, I've got to be everywhere on time and I've got to get my job done."
After slimming down to 331 pounds and displaying impressive speed and agility at the NFL Combine in February, Henderson came to the UM Pro Timing Day eight pounds heavier. He reportedly left UM before completing the workout, but Levine and Golden said he was dehydrated and returned to finish his workout.
"I don't think that was a fair representation, because he did finish," Golden said last month on WQAM. "… No. 2, Seantrel toward the end of his career was playing his best football, was playing his most consistent football. I'd tell [NFL teams] that he's a guy that needs structure, that needs to continue to be part of the process, but that he has come a long way.
"… Sometimes people say, 'Is he the type of guy that will divide a locker room?' That is not Seantrel. Seantrel is not a divisive figure at all. In fact, he's a loveable kid. People like him. He's had some hiccups, but clearly those are things that he's addressed and has been open and honest about."
Henderson, who started 26 of the 43 games he played in at UM, was not expected to be picked higher than the third round in the draft, which runs Thursday through Saturday. The Dolphins hosted him recently in their annual locals visit, and he was believed to be a late-round option, if at all.
When asked to evaluate some UM players last Thursday during a national teleconference, NFL analyst Mike Mayock said Henderson was "the most gifted," but added that "he's had off-the-field issues and on-the-field inconsistencies. He is a first-round talent that I don't think is going before the fourth round – and that's probably where he'll go, somewhere in the fourth round."
But that was before Monday's revelation.
Levine told The Herald late last week that Henderson had dropped four pounds and was down to 335. "Everyone tells me he's a first-round talent," the agent said. "Obviously teams have to take into account some of the things that have happened off the field. However, everyone who meets Seantrel loves him as a person. There are some guys who just aren't good guys and have off-the-field issues. That's not Seantrel.
"He's still only 21 years old and he's going to grow into a man. He's owning up to some of the stupid things he did. But we're going to chalk it up to immaturity."

Pretty Things LyricsArtist: LeAnn Rimes
Album: Family
And a goodwill dress
Play pretending, danced for the mirror
A fairytale princess
Pretty things are yours to hold
My pretty thing soon you will know
Pretty things you think you need
But don't make you beautiful
Pretty things will rot with love
Pretty things will fade with time
It's what's inside that makes you shine
My pretty thing
It's only natural, the table's turning
And gracefully I'll learn
How to cradle the one who raised me
Will be too fragile for this world
Selfless and faithful
As good as you should be
Open and fearless
Oh, what a gift you gave
All lyrics are the property of their respective authors, artists and labels.

Got Treats?
Yesterday evening while I was cleaning stalls, Moonbeam would not leave me alone.
He knows that I very often have treats in my pockets and he was bound and determined to get some treats. He did his level best to drive me crazy, I think....biting the manure rake, stealing my glove (right off my hand) and grabbing my hat.
Ok, buddy, you want my hat? Here you go....
I must smell like their favorite treat....frosted mini wheats. I always have a pocket full of wheaty crumbs (imagine what happens to Frosted Mini Wheats in the pocket when the jacket goes through the laundry!)
The funny thing is....we don't even eat Frosted Mini Wheats. But, I buy them at the grocery store...just for the horses. And no, they're NOT spoiled!!!
8 comments:
Nope, not spoiled at all. The hat looks really nice. Gives him a rather dashing look.ReplyDelete
Thanks for my regular morning dose of cuteness.ReplyDelete
You are so welcome. Cuteness is our specialty!!ReplyDelete
Moonbeam is not spoiled. I buy gallons and gallons of apple juice (don't tell my husband) and add it to my horse's stall water so that he will drink. He drinks just fine outside....that's spoiled. My other horse must have her juice in the mornings after her breakfast. What can I say they are my babies.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousFebruary 18, 2010 at 10:45 AM
there isn't a feather,or fur,or skin or hide on that farm that isn't spoiled..Love itReplyDelete
So cute!ReplyDelete
Please come and visit me...I have a "Sunshine Blog Award" for you!
Thank you!
Your animals are the definition of spoiled!! But oh so loved!!! Love the hat, calendar stud portfolio here he comes. I'd be thinking of publishing!ReplyDelete
You made my day. Moonbeam sure is cute and funny. Those close-up shots are a hoot.ReplyDelete
If you'd like to leave a comment...I assure you I appreciate it! I read and answer comments by email whenever possible. Thanks for stopping by for a chat with me!!

Assemblyman Bob Sweeney (D-Lindenhurst) and Senator George D. Maziarz (R-Newfane) recently introduced legislation to enact the Great Lakes - St. Lawrence River Basin Water Resources Compact (A.7266/S.4324).
The Compact will institute important new protections for the Great Lakes/St. Lawrence River ecosystem. It will incorporate new water management initiatives throughout the Great Lakes basin, including protection against out-of-basin water diversions and the promotion of water conservation measures basin-wide. The Compact is the culmination of a five-year process of negotiations among the eight Great Lakes States and the Provinces of Quebec and Ontario with participation by diverse interests. The Governors of all eight Great Lakes States endorsed the Compact in December of 2005.
"This historic agreement is designed to ensure protection of the waters of the Great Lakes, now and in perpetuity. Over 40% of our State lies within the Great Lakes Basin. The Great Lakes are an important environmental resource and economic driver for the State. The Compact is designed as proactive legislation to shelter and preserve the Great Lakes", said Assemblyman Bob Sweeney, Chairman of the Assembly Committee on Environmental Conservation
Senator George Maziarz, whose 62nd Senate District is bounded by Lake Ontario and the Niagara River connecting to Lake Erie, said, "The Great Lakes are 20% of the world's fresh water. As "great" as these waters are, they are extremely fragile. With water-hungry nations increasingly eyeing the Great Lakes for their own water needs, it is imperative that New York pass the Compact to safeguard these resources to support the economies and quality of life of not only the current communities that depend on them but future generations. New York should be a leader in this effort."
The Compact language must be passed by all eight Great Lakes States and ratified by the U.S. Congress to take effect. Minnesota recently passed it. Once executed, the Compact will be the first enforceable water management system covering the Great Lakes Basin.
"The Great Lakes Compact is essential to preserving New York State's water resources so that millions of people who rely on these waters for drinking water and their economic livelihood will be protected in the future," said Assemblyman Darrel J. Aubertine (D-Cape Vincent). "As the representative of the St. Lawrence Seaway and Thousand Island's region, I support this measure and urge all the other Great Lakes states to adopt the compact. This is one way we can help ensure that the quality of life for those who depend on these important waterways will not be jeopardized in the future."
"The Great Lakes Compact is necessary to preserve one of the world's sources of fresh water," Senator Jim Alesi (R-Perinton), whose district borders Lake Ontario to the north. "If this Compact does not pass all eight Great Lakes states we risk losing control of safeguarding these vital waterways. As an avid outdoorsman and the Chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee, I understand how critical these waterways are for both recreation and economic vitality. Most importantly, the Great Lakes are the most significant source of freshwater for our region. We cannot underestimate the importance of keeping these waters clean for the millions of residents who get their drinking water from the Lakes. I urge all of the Great Lakes states to pass this historic compact so we can be assured that these waterways will remain the freshest in the world for generations to come."
"An agreement on the Great Lakes Compact has become a matter of urgency," said Assemblyman David Koon (D/I-Perinton). "The Great Lakes are one of this state's, in fact one of the world's, greatest natural resources. The Great Lakes states have the responsibility of protecting these resources, we have laid the groundwork for that protection, and now it is time that we put aside parochial interests and formalize the agreement."
"It's important that we take the proper steps now to ensure the future protection of the Great Lakes," said Senator Mary Lou Rath (R-C-I, Williamsville), Chair of the Senate Committee on Tourism, Recreation and Sports Development. "The Great Lakes Compact will help not only to keep the Great Lakes environmentally sound, but will also help to ensure that the vast recreational opportunities the Great Lakes offer to sporting enthusiasts are always available."
Assemblywoman Francine DelMonte (D-Lewiston) said, "As a long-time advocate for protecting the Great Lakes and their tributaries, I support the passage of the Great Lakes Compact. The Great Lakes are in invaluable natural resource for our communities. Along with drinking water, they supply power for our manufacturers, which provide jobs and serve as the foundation for our economy. The Great Lakes also attract sportsmen and outdoor enthusiasts from all over the world. We must protect this natural resource by signing the Great Lakes Compact to ensure the vitality of the Great Lakes for generations to come."
Senator Joseph Robach (R-Greece) said, "The Great Lakes are a priceless resource for drinking water, boating, fishing, swimming, tourism, and a key asset in the economic revitalization of Upstate New York. As New York's most valued natural resource, this legislation will allow us to protect and preserve these lakes to the best of our ability. We must lead the charge on this initiative and it is my hope that our neighboring states will join us in our efforts."
"The Great Lakes Compact responds to rapidly increasing demands on the Great Lakes, a non-renewable natural resource. The Great Lakes played an important role in the development of Buffalo and its first-ring suburbs, and we need to ensure that the people and businesses of New York will continue to have access to this cornerstone of the economy. I will encourage my colleagues in the Legislature to support this important legislation." said Assemblyman Dennis Gabryszak (D-Cheektowaga).
"Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River are critical to the quality of life and economics success of not just the region that I represent – Central and Northern New York – but to New York State as a whole. We rely on these two bodies of water for shipping, tourism, fishing, recreation, public waters supplies, power and more." said Senator Jim Wright (R,C,I-Watertown). "Waters of the Great Lakes - St Lawrence River Basin must be carefully managed so that their economic, ecological and social benefits can be sustained for future generations."

N.D. Cal. v. Arnold Schwarzenegger et al. Please briefly describe the dispute that gave rise to this lawsuit. In 2008, the people of California enacted a constitutional amendment (Proposition 8) providing that "[o]nly marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California." CAL. CONST. art. I, § 7.5. Plaintiffs in this action, members of two same-sex couples, claim that Proposition 8 violates the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. (Please continue to next page.) Case: 10-16696 08/05/2010 Page: 2 of 3 ID: 7429526 DktEntry: 1-2 Briefly describe the procedural history, the result below, and the main issues on appeal. Plaintiffs filed their suit on May 22, 2009. On June 30, the district court permitted Appellants, official proponents of Proposition 8 and the primarily formed ballot committee designated by the official proponents as the official Yes on 8 campaign, to intervene to defend Proposition 8's constitutionality. On October 14, the district court denied Appellants' motion for summary judgment. The case was tried from January 11 through January 27, 2010, and closing arguments were held on June 16. On August 4, the district court ruled that Proposition 8 violates the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. The main issues on appeal will be whether Proposition 8 violates the Due Process or Equal Protection Clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment. On August 4, the district court denied the motion of Imperial County, its Board of Supervisors, and Deputy County Clerk Isabel Vargas (collectively, Imperial County) to intervene as defendants. Imperial County has also appealed the district court's ruling on the merits as well as its ruling denying intervention. That appeal has been docketed as Case No. 10-16751. Case Nos. 09-16959, 09-17241, 09-17551, 10-15649, and 10-70063, which also arose out of the same district court action, are no longer active. Describe any proceedings remaining below or any related proceedings in other tribunals. On August 3, 2010, Appellants filed a motion for stay pending appeal with the district court. On August 4, the district court entered a temporary stay of its judgment and invited the other parties to respond to Appellants' motion by August 6. The motion has been submitted since that date, and the district court has ordered that the temporary stay remain in place until it rules on the motion. On January 9, 2010, Appellants filed a motion to stay the Northern District of California's order permitting the broadcast of the Perry v. Schwarzenegger bench trial with the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court granted the motion on January 13, 2010 pending the resolution of a timely filed petition for writ of certiorari or mandamus. Appellants have filed a petition for certiorari, but the Supreme Court has yet to act on it. The matter is docketed as No. 09-1238 in the Supreme Court. (Please continue to next page.) Case: 10-16696 08/05/2010 Page: 3 of 3 ID: 7429526 DktEntry: 1-2 Provide any other information that might affect the suitability of this case for mediation.

I understand that failure to provide the Court with a completed form and service list may result in sanctions, including dismissal of the appeal. Signature s/Charles J.

DescriptionAn in-depth report on the causes, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of stroke.
Alternative NamesAtrial Fibrillation; Transient Ischemic Attacks
People at risk and partners or caretakers of people at risk for stroke should be aware of the general symptoms, and the stroke victim should get to the hospital as soon as possible after these warning signs appear. It is particularly important for people with migraines or frequent severe headaches to understand how to distinguish between their usual headaches and symptoms of stroke.
Symptoms of TIAs and Early Ischemic Stroke
The symptoms of a transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) and early ischemic stroke are similar. In the case of a TIA, however, the symptoms should resolve within 24 hours. Symptoms depend on where the injury in the brain occurs. The origin of the stroke is usually either the carotid or basilar arteries.
Symptoms From Blockage in the Carotid Arteries. The carotid arteries stem off of the aorta (the primary artery leading from the heart) and lead up through the neck around the windpipe and on into the brain. When TIAs or stroke occur from blockage in the carotid artery, which they often do, symptoms may occur in either the retina of the eye or the cerebral hemisphere (the large top part of the brain).
They include the following:
Symptoms From Blockage in the Basilar Artery. The other major site of trouble, the basilar artery, is formed at the base of the skull from the vertebral arteries, which run up along the spine and join at the back of the head. When stroke or TIAs occur here, both hemispheres of the brain may be affected so that symptoms occur on both sides of the body. The following symptoms may develop:
Such strokes usually occur in the brain stem, which can have profound affects on breathing, blood pressure, heart rate and other vital functions, but does not affect thinking or language.
Speed of Symptom Onset. The speed of symptom onset of a major ischemic stroke may indicate its source:
Symptoms of Hemorrhagic Stroke
Cerebral Hemorrhage Symptoms. Symptoms of a cerebral, or parenchymal, hemorrhage typically begin very suddenly and evolve over several hours and include:
Subarachnoid Hemorrhage. When the hemorrhage is a subarachnoid type, warning signs may occur from the leaky blood vessel a few days to a month before the aneurysm fully develops and ruptures. Warning signs may include:
When the aneurysm ruptures, the stroke victim may experience the following:

A Case of the Voids
Find a Conversation
|Wed, 10-23-2013 - 8:14pm
I have always been an optimistic person. In fact, I hate negativity. But years of let downs and mistakes of my own has taken its toll on me and I guess I just need to vent. There are too many voids in my life!
There are the voids of my past. The things that are gone, some forgotten, and some I wish I could literally void out of my mind but can't.
Then there are the voids of the present, the vast & empty voids that are pulling me under. Wanting someone I can't have and not loving or being loved. Naturally I have family that I love and love me but it's not the same as being in love. Having someone to hug & kiss good morning & goodnight or to share special times with.
And then there is the future, I can't even imagine my life will be any different than it is now. And since it is unknown and non-existant it may as well be a void too.
Just one big void of a life. It makes it very hard to get out of bed every day. I feel trapped and alone, and I'm scared. Scared that the best days of my life are gone and that what I have now is all I ever will have. I am 52 years old and am more than likely going to die alone.
|Wed, 10-23-2013 - 10:09pm
I think we all have times when we feel like this. Lately Ive been feeling a little depressed cause I don't like my job but I'm not having much luck finding another one because of various reasons even though I think I'd be a really good employee. Also I've been divorced 5 yrs and haven't had any relationship since and it doesn't look good for that either. Sometimes I do get down about it & think will it be like this forever? But the thing is that we don't know what the future will hold, so it's self destructive to just assume that it won't get better. Why not choose to think that things might improve? It is a choice to think that way or to think negatively. Also I've taken the attitude that since it's possible that I might never have another BF, then I might as well make the best of the situation as it is and try to have as much fun as possible. I'd say most of the time I'm still having fun so it doesn't matter that much. Like last Sat. night I went to the movies & out to eat w/ 2 girlfriends. Sure it would be nice to have a date, but I can still enjoy a movie w/ friends.
|Wed, 10-23-2013 - 11:23pm
I hear you. I am 52 as well. Lately I have been definitely seeing myself aging, and I want to kick myself for not taking advantage of the power of my youth in my 20s and 30s. A lot of wasted years of low self-esteem, and always wanting people I could not have. Know that you are not alone, and there are many of us in the same boat. Life is not always fair, and I am sure we all know people for whom everything fell in place. Not always the most worthy people, either. I wish I had some great words of wisdom, but for me learning to love myself no matter my external circumstances has helped, and is the only thing I truly have control over. Many of us feel that void, though.
|Thu, 10-24-2013 - 1:26pm
Hi Buckeye,
I could have written your post. I'm 46 and I've been feeling like that too. For many years I feel like that most of the time. There were brief moments of hopefulness, usually when I drink (not a drinker - a bottle of chardoney over a month, if even that) but even a glass or two of wine sometimes can make me feel more elated. You can call me a happy drunk.
I've been told so many times you can find love at any age but not for me since I never had much luck with men. Of late I've been thinking about the rare few men that I passed up who would have made great mates and doubt myself all the time. It seems whatever I can get at the time always fall short of what I want.,,know what I mean. So then I would look back and would think I should have gone for that one or that one. I have to say though, my standards have gone down over the years too b/c it's harder as you get older.
Strangely though, as I'm writing this, I'm starting to have hope again. I think you just have to believe that you will find love, even when you don't plenty of people are single. Even those who were married before, no guarantee at this age they would still be coupled. So there are lots of people like us actually.
|Fri, 10-25-2013 - 6:25am
These thoughts come back to me regularly, you are definitely not alone if that is somewhat comforting...! Like you, and everyone else in here, I try to stay positive. But sometimes I am really down, it can hit me when I least expect it. Most of my friends are coupled up and do unfortunately not understand me regarding single life anymore. Not having many understanding friends or others close to me to talk to is sometimes hard. I do not want to talk to my mother about it... So I understand completely what you are talking about. I wish we all lived close to each other! You guys are a comfort to me, despite the distance and not even having met in real life.
I am 37 and have never had any luck with men, to put it mildly. I always think "what is the matter with me?" since I seldom meet single men (I could end the sentence here, actually...) who find me attractive enough to even flirt a little. It does not help the self-confidence/-esteem and lately I have also started to think I might never get to start a family if this situation does not change very soon. Especially when those few men approaching me are often much older (and I mean much, 15-20 years older) and not to my fancy at all - quite the contrary! I deserve being approached by guys my age, why is it not happening? I go to concerts, happenings, hockey games etc, often by myself and do my best to look approachable and friendly. But nothing.
The OLD thing gives me the creeps most of the time and there is no action there either. I have been there for years and no dates so far (but I admit to not being there often, mea culpa). When guys ask me out on their very first post to me without even initiating a hint of small talk (or "Hello"!) first, I am not impressed. That is not the way to go with me...
|Fri, 10-25-2013 - 2:21pm
Yikes. I can so relate to all of you.... you guys know I am 59 and my hopes for finding someone waffle back and forth but my hope will never stop.... I do not like OLD but get some messages here and there but there are days where I just cannot stand going to meet someone that way.. I was thinking maybe next message I will just tell the guy which meet up group I am going to next and tell him to meet me there . Okay that problem solved. If he doesnt go for it then he isnt flexible enough or whatever.
Okay did I go off topic.. sorry....
First off find out if you are depressed or just lonely.. What I have discovered in old age (LOL) is that there is help for depression and lonliness... There is plenty to do in the world and having friends and things to do will alleviate how you are feeling.. yes we all want to get home and have someone waiting and all but you know what?? There is no future.. The past is gone and the future hasnt happened .. We only have the present moment so take each day and do the best you can with it.. After awhile this will become the norm for you.. Be greatful for all you have and see the greatness in each and everyday no matter what.. Yes yes easier said than done but doing what you are doing doesnt seem to be working so change it up a bit.. I know when I go to meet ups and find things to do that interest me I do feel better.. No it doesnt take away the fact of wanting a mate but what can we do? while we sit and wait for our next mate we need to just do what makes us happy.. Oh; and if the next mate doesnt come along then we just continue on with life and do the best we can... Stop being so hard on yourself and live in the NOW.... and find whatever ways or modalities to make you feel good.. even if its simple like getting sun or buying your favorite coffee or petting a dog or cat or listening to great music.. There is so much abundance in the Universe and its time to find it ...LOL.. I went for a drive this week and noticed all of the gorgeous fall colors and shapes and most awesome scenery out there. It made me so happy that I live near all of this and it was free and simple.. Find things like that and you will feel soooooooooooo much better even if its short term.. This propels you into finding more positive and less negative..
Just fake it till you make it...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|Sat, 10-26-2013 - 9:03am
Get the book, The Key to Living the Law of Attraction by Jack Canfield. They might have it at the library. It actually worked for me. It also made me start thinking about things in a more positive way. I wish you the best.
|Sun, 10-27-2013 - 1:34pm
I will sort of echo what I think White_Satin said which was, I think I could've written some of the things you typed as well. I woke one night about two weeks ago and had been dreaming about an ex of mine. Several here know my history, but it's been a good ten years since I've been in love. I guess I had forgotten what it felt like so this dream was quite the curse. I woke still feeling that warm, reassuring feeling that I loved someone and he loved me back(in my dream I was in his arms, in bed). It was almost as if I woke in a state of euphoria. Of course, quickly I realized that it was all simply a dream. I walked around in a funk for a good few days because of it. I have no children so again, I echo your fears of being alone and having not much to look forward to . . . as sad as it is to admit, it's comforting to know that at least I am not the only one who has these feelings. When I was in my 20's and early 30's, I had a LOT of FUN. I find myself (also) thinking that perhaps all of the best "stuff" is behind me. Well, if so, then that's okay. I think there's a certain kind of beauty in living a quiet existence :) I am trying to reel myself in because I am in a good place after a bit of a rough patch and I don't want to come across as a motivational speaker. I will just say, don't give up because something really wonderful could be right around the corner. Keep your eyes and ears open and don't lose your optimistic spirit. I will keep my fingers crossed for you :)
|Sun, 10-27-2013 - 8:04pm
I too ould have written this letter. At 57, I have accepted that the plan for my life probably does not include finding 'the one'. However, I have family and some freinds and my own initiative and imagination, and most of the time I can amuse myself pretty well. Last weekend I was sulking...some plans in the past two weekends fell through, and I was feeling the 'why not me' feeling...then some things happened this week that were hopeful...not in the 'meet a man' way, but in a 'you are loved' way and even though I did about the same things this week end as last, I was content. I am reaching the age where people who have been in couples are starting to be alone, either through divorce or death, and I am glad I already have good coping skills. I think I pretty much knew in my 20s that the knight on the white horse easn't coming for me, and I made a decision to live my life without waiting for him...and although there were relationships after that, I think I have been happiest and less stressed when I was alone. Some nights, when I go to sleep, I think 'how will I manage if iam alone forever?' and I realize...the same way you got this far. If you read other boards on Ivillage, you realize that being in a relationship doesn't guarantee happiness....it is just a different balance of happy and unhappy.

Used for finish nailing, painting, air tools and works great!
It was missing 2 nuts that hold the compressor to the tank but bought them for 82 cents and installed. I called customer service and they offered to replace. Unit is easy to carry and quality is excellent. I would buy it again without any reservations.

Q:How many roofing nailers will it handle?
3 answers
A:The CAP2000 compressor suuplies 2.8 CFM at 90PSI. The RN46 roofing nailer requires 3.9 cubic feet per minute of free air to operate at the rate of 100 nails per minute, at 80 p.s.i, So it will operate 1 roofing nailer if you are go slow.
A:The Bostitch 2-Tool Finish & Brad Compressor Combo Kit holds a maximum of 100 nails.
A:In reponse to the answer of "100 nails per minute"... theres not too many people that can lay shingles AND shoot 100 nails per minute. I would think 2 typical roofers could operate at one time with this compressor.

Maggie's Dare is one of the many books in the
Sisters In Time Series, which are all about girls
living in different time periods. I loved
Maggie's Dare so much that I couldn't put it
down; it was a real page-turner. This is a
wonderful Christian-based book that can keep you
up all night long trying to find out what will
happen next. I really liked the character named
Jacob because he brought life to the story and it
made the story all the better. Maggie's Dare is
recommended for kids ages 8-12.

Season 1, Episode 6
"Run if you want to live!" Far beneath an ancient country house, in long forgotten chambers, Claire Jackman discovers the truth about her husband. Above, a storm gathers: Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde are coming . . .
Season 1, Episode 5
It dies with you. Dr. Jekyll's last secret.' Edinburgh, 1886: a deal is done, and the true story of Mr. Hyde's origins is buried and forgotten. Until now...
Season 1, Episode 4
"You have my husband in a box!!" An ancient organization, with a plan a century in the making, finally has Tom Jackman in its clutches. But why?
Season 1, Episode 3
"When you sleep, I will eat your children." Tom Jackman wakes with blood on his hands. Has Hyde finally done the unthinkable?
Question: All in all, this has been the best cable summer ever. I even had to write up a daily schedule of cable shows on each night because there were too many to remember them all! A couple of points, though. First, I was just getting into the new season of Kyle XY when they announced "only two more episodes until the season finale." What, seven or eight episodes are a season now? I know some cable series only do 12 episodes instead of the normal 13 (which I hate), but eight? They promised more "in 2008." Splitting up a larger run into two short ones is annoying and feels like "television interruptus." Note to cable networks: I need more than eight episodes of a good series to be fully satisfied. Similarly, I know the BBC does short runs of a show, but I was watching Jekyll on BBC On Demand and it ended after five episodes (granted, the last was extended and could count as two). I was enjoying this new take on an old story and especially liked the way James Nesbitt was portraying the ...

How 3 parish schools do it
December 22, 2007
By Martha Woodall INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
Thanks to a $25,000 contribution from the Notre Dame Alumni Club of Philadelphia, three classrooms at St. Malachy Elementary School in North Philadelphia have interactive whiteboards. The school used part of a $5,000 gift from Lockheed Martin Corp. to buy a dozen microscopes. Parishoners from Queen of Peace in Ardsley supplied the school's new basketball uniforms. And a $25,000 grant from the Anna-Maria Moggio Foundation in Center City is underwriting a new music program. While many inner-city Catholic parish schools are on the brink of financial disaster, St. Malachy is strong, vibrant and fiscally stable.
Hopes Rise For Teachers' Unions At Parish Schools
February 14, 1988
By Martha Woodall, Inquirer Staff Writer
With the arrival last week of Archbishop Anthony J. Bevilacqua, some Catholic lay teachers have begun wondering whether the change in church leadership will result in a softening of the hard-line stance the archdiocese has taken toward collective bargaining efforts among parish teachers. "I hope for the sake of the lay teachers that he will give them the right to unionize, if they so wish, and have a systemwide election," said Larry Legner, who spent 15 years teaching in parish schools and was active in organizing efforts before he left two years ago to take a better-paying job at a Catholic high school.
Panel Targets Parish Schools 6 May Be Consolidated Into 3
December 21, 1992
by Bob Warner, Daily News Staff Writer
A committee of Catholic priests and lay people in North Philadelphia has recommended consolidation of six parish elementary schools into three, with St. Bonaventure, St. Edward and St. Henry schools to be closed beginning next fall. The proposal - just a small piece of the pending reorganization of church operations in North Philadelphia - goes next to Cardinal Anthony Bevilacqua, who will have the final say on which schools stay open and which are closed. "The overall purpose is to preserve and protect the existence of Catholic education in some of our more stressed areas," said Msgr.
2 More Parish Schools Lose Fight To Stay Afloat
January 18, 1988
By Martha Woodall, Inquirer Staff Writer
During yesterday's 11 a.m. Mass, the Rev. Victor J. Eschbach, pastor of Most Precious Blood of Our Lord, looked out at the predominantly black congregation that filled the old wooden pews of his North Philadelphia church. "As just about all of you know, we will be closing our school at the end of this academic year," he announced sadly before reading aloud a letter from Cardinal John Krol granting permission to close the parish school that has served the Strawberry Mansion section for more than 60 years.
Black Catholics Rally Protest Closing Of Parish Schools In Their Communities
February 22, 1988
By MICHAEL DAYS, Daily News Staff Writer
Now that the 13-block march from St. Peter the Apostle Church to the Gesu Church has ended, now that the Mass commemorating 130 years of black people attending Catholic schools has been celebrated, the hard part starts. How can the 40,000 black Catholics in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia continue the tradition of Catholic elementary schools in their communities? How can they buck a nationwide trend that has seen Catholic urban schools close while the number of black children attending those schools has increased significantly in the last decade?
7 parish schools slated to close in June
March 1, 2011
By MARY MAZZONI, email@example.com 215-854-5880
Jeff Hewitt of Kensington said his son has attended two Catholic schools in the past three years because of closures - and now he'll have to find him a third. His son's school, St. Anne's, on Tucker Street near Memphis, is one of seven archdiocesan schools that will close at the end of the academic year, the Office of Catholic Education said yesterday. "What am I paying for?" Hewitt asked angrily, holding a letter to parents from the St. Anne Alumni Association. "The alumni want us to be patient.
2 parish schools to temporarily merge for fall Enrollment dropped unexpectedly at All Saints in Bridesburg. Students will attend St. John Cantius.
June 2, 2004
By Martha Woodall INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
A sharp drop in enrollment at a Catholic elementary school in Bridesburg has prompted Cardinal Justin Rigali to approve a temporary plan for sending its students to a neighboring parochial school this fall. In March, Rigali had given the parish councils of All Saints and St. John Cantius permission to consider possibly merging at the end of the 2004-2005 school year because of declining enrollment and rising costs. But an unexpected drop in enrollment at All Saints now has prompted church officials to act before September.
11 Grads Who'll Give Something Back They'll Earn Little, Work Lots. And They Say Parish Schools Are Great Places To Start A Teaching Career.
July 19, 1993
By Ralph Vigoda, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
Amy McLeod, Villanova University Class of 1993, will spend her first year on her own sleeping in a recently abandoned convent, working in Mount Airy and making next to nothing. "I think it's going to be great," she said. Christine Tomasik agrees. So does Vince O'Donohue. Ditto Kellie Mooney. The four are part of a group of eight women and three men taking part in a pioneering effort in the Catholic Archdiocese of Philadelphia. In exchange for room and board, a small monthly stipend, and medical benefits, the 11 will spend at least one year teaching elementary or middle-school students in local Catholic schools.
2 Parish Schools To Close This Year; Enrollment Down It Came As No Surprise At St. Michael In N. Phila. And Our Lady Of Loreto In S.w. Phila. The News Saddened Many.
January 11, 2000
By Connie Langland, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
The news came as no real surprise, but teachers and students were left saddened just the same yesterday by the announcement by the Archdiocese of Philadelphia that two parish schools, St. Michael in North Philadelphia and Our Lady of Loreto in Southwest Philadelphia, will close at the end of the school year. Empty seats are the reason. Enrollment at St. Michael's this year is at 122, though the school could accommodate 230, while at Our Lady of Loreto, 145 students attend classes, with 115 empty desks, the archdiocese says.
Enrollments on the decline, two Catholic schools will close
May 17, 2005
By Martha Woodall INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
Declining enrollment will cause two more Roman Catholic elementary schools to close next month, the Archdiocese of Philadelphia announced yesterday. Parishioners at St. Bartholomew in the city's Lower Northeast and at Holy Trinity in Bridgeport, Montgomery County, learned during weekend Masses that their schools would close. The two parish schools join three other Catholic elementary schools that are set to close outright next month. Seven others are slated to consolidate into three regional schools.

Network to run 14 former parish schools
July 17, 2013
By Martha Woodall, Inquirer Staff Writer
Archbishop Charles J. Chaput signed documents Monday designating 14 former parish elementary schools in low-income neighborhoods as Catholic "mission schools" operated by an independent network. "I'm very, very proud of our mission schools," Chaput said moments before he signed an agreement turning them over to Independence Mission Schools during ceremonies at St. Gabriel School in Grays Ferry. Amid the Archdiocese of Philadelphia's financial problems, Chaput said, the change will ensure that the schools continue to provide a Catholic education to children in the city's neediest neighborhoods.
Parents pushing to keep Bordentown parish school open
March 28, 2013
By Jan Hefler, INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
The bishop of the Trenton Diocese says he will not reconsider his decision this month to shutter the 150-year-old St. Mary School in Bordentown. But the school's supporters are mobilizing and won't rule out the possibility of an appeal to keep it open. "If we have enough of a groundswell . . . from the community, we're willing to move forward," said David Burden, who heads the Save St. Mary Committee, a coalition of parents, teachers, alumni, and others. He wants supporters to petition the diocese for a reversal of the bishop's decision.
Philadelphia Archdiocese plan to restructure education showing progress
March 5, 2013
By Martha Woodall, Inquirer Staff Writer
St. Hubert Catholic High School for Girls in Holmesburg marked the one-year anniversary of its rescue from closing last week with a march, rally, and Mass of Thanksgiving. Monsignor Bonner-Archbishop Prendergast Catholic High School in Drexel Hill celebrated with pretzels, a dress-down day, and played pop songs when class periods changed. But in the 12 months since Archbishop Charles J. Chaput announced a plan to restructure Catholic education in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia that spared four high schools from closing, the most dramatic changes were less visible.
Schools aren't just for Catholics
February 1, 2013
AS CATHOLIC schools in our region mark National Catholic Schools Week, we have an opportunity to celebrate the importance of Catholic education in the lives of families across the Delaware Valley. But while many may think that this week is one marked by the Catholic community alone, it is important to note the ever-growing role that Catholic schools play in the lives of many non-Catholic families, who also will celebrate Catholic education this week for the excellent opportunity it has provided their children.
Catholic school year of transition
December 31, 2012
By Martha Woodall, Inquirer Staff Writer
Janet Dollard was a few months into her first year as president of Conwell-Egan High School in Fairless Hills when the Archdiocese of Philadelphia announced in January it planned to close the school as part of a broad restructuring of Catholic education. Ultimately, Conwell-Egan and three other endangered high schools were saved, a foundation was established to manage them, and Dollard's school now has one of its largest freshman classes in years. "It was a whirlwind, really," Dollard recalled in a recent interview.
A new mission for Catholic schools
December 5, 2012
By Bryan Carter Earlier this year, a Philadelphia Archdiocese blue-ribbon commission made recommendations for strengthening the region's Catholic schools. They included major consolidations, some closings, and the conversion of more than a dozen former parish schools in underserved areas into "mission schools. " While much of the plan was implemented swiftly, the slated mission schools have not yet fully adopted their new model - for good reasons. For many students, parents, and educators, mission schools are an unfamiliar idea.
Letters to the Editor
June 20, 2012
Letter to the Inquirer Editor
Helping teachers after closings The mergers and closures resulting from the Blue Ribbon Commission recommendations this January were challenging for teachers, administrators, and school families throughout the archdiocese. The Office of Catholic Education (OCE) recognizes the sacrifices that so many, including teachers, make in support of Catholic education. We have a responsibility to respect that sacrifice and a duty to help them. Since the announcement, efforts have been ongoing to assist all those affected — students, parents, teachers, and staff.
No Catholic regional school in Manayunk for 2012-13, church officials say
June 19, 2012
By Martha Woodall and INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
A new regional Catholic elementary school that had been proposed for Manayunk will not open in September due to low enrollment, the Archdiocese of Philadelphia announced Monday. St. Blaise Regional School was going to be created through the merger of St. Bridget parish school in East Falls and Holy Child Regional School in Manayunk, and based at Holy Child. But only 155 students had registered as of Friday, and the archdiocese said the school needed to have at least 250 students to cover teacher salaries and provide a quality education.
Parents await Archdiocese school decision
June 19, 2012
By David O'Reilly and INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
It was an uncertain Father's Day for many dads and moms of St. Bridget's parish in East Falls as they awaited news on the fate of a regional Catholic elementary school that never was — and might never be. The Archdiocese of Philadelphia is expected to announce Monday whether it will create a new regional elementary school in Manayunk that would include the youngsters of St. Bridget's parish school, which closed its doors forever Friday....
Polaneczky: They're blasé about St. Blaise
June 13, 2012
Ronnie Polaneczky
"DESPITE. " Of all the words in the totally depressing "important communique" from St. Blaise Regional Catholic School, that one word — "despite" — underscores why so many parents have rejected St. Blaise as the educational choice for their kids. Posted on the school's website on Friday, the letter, penned by East Falls and Manayunk parish priests, laments that just 155 students have registered for the 2012-13 academic year at St. Blaise. That's 95 fewer kids than the 250 needed to pay for teachers' salaries and programs come September.

The second novel of Scott Mariani's series, The Mozart Conspiracy follows Ben Hope, a hero in the manner of James Bond, as he searches for the reason behind his friend Oliver's death. Working together with Oliver's sister, Ben uses all the tools at his disposal – including pistols and nail guns – to find his friend's murderer. With elements of love, friendship and graphic violence, The Mozart Conspiracy is a wild ride of a novel.
Plot Overview: Conspiracies, Murder and Mozart
Ben Hope is a stoic, tense man, one who spends his life rescuing kidnapped children. When his ex-girlfriend, popular opera singer Leigh Llewellyn, reaches out to him following her brother's murder, the soft-hearted and hard-bodied hero agrees to meet. Together, the two trace Oliver's last steps and the origins of a mysterious letter written by Mozart.
As Ben and Leigh begin to discover who murdered Oliver and why, their lives and those of the people around them are threatened. Joining forces with a local Austrian police detective, Ben and Leigh fight off vicious thugs who are members of the sinister Order of Ra. Outnumbered, the trio will stop at nothing, not even murder, to find the truth.
Criticisms and Compliments
Mariani's The Mozart Conspiracy is written in the same vein as Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code or Harlan Coben's Myron Bolitar series. Mariani, like Coben, provides a trickle of clues, each one guaranteeing the reader only knows as much as the characters. Both Mariani and Coben also appear to have such power over their plots, casually doling out information that leads to explosive reveals. And like Brown's The Da Vinci Code, The Mozart Conspiracy exposes the secret and sometimes corrupt actions of an ancient society.
Mariani, who is a musician himself, thoughtfully explores the world of music as only someone with experience can. He writes with accuracy and a depth of feeling, and his background in music makes his proposed link between Mozart and the Freemasons that much more plausible. It is accepted knowledge that Mozart was a Freemason in his time and that The Magic Flute contains various Masonic symbols; Mariani, however, takes it one step further, suggesting that not only was Mozart an upstanding member of the society, but his death was also at the hands of a sinister side group.
The Mozart Conspiracy is a fast, page-turning read. Although Mariani does not shy away from describing violence and murder, his novel is terrific, both in its plot and in its protagonist, courageous Ben Hope.

Crafts for All Seasons
From: Crafts-for-All-Seasons
What You'll Need: Two paper bowls, a toilet paper tube, glue, construction paper, markers, scissors, paint, a paintbrush, toothpicks and a small condiment cup (this will be your turkey's hat!) How to Do It: Paint the bowls and toilet paper roll any color you'd like and let dry. Glue the rims of the bowls together, then glue the roll to one of the bowls; this creates the body. Make a face for your turkey by first drawing eyes with marker. Give him a beak by folding a small square of construction paper in half diagonally and then cutting along the line to make the beak 3D! Glue on the beak and let dry. Then, draw a gobbler with a red marker. Trace your kid's handprint to use as the turkey's feet. Cut out feather shapes from the construction paper. Glue the backsides of the feathers, sandwich a toothpick (but keep one end showing) between them, and glue it all together. Have your kids write what they're thankful for on each of the feathers and stick each into the bowls. Trace a circle, wider than the diameter of the condiment cup and cut out (this will be the hat's brim). Glue the cup to the brim and there you go! A very thankful turkey.
