Watkins tops Kiper's rookie rankingsPosted by on September 18, 2014 – 3:57 pm
ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper watches the rookie players who were drafted and ranks them through the course of their rookie seasons. Perhaps it isn't a surprise to most, but Sammy Watkins tops his list.
Watkins was ranked first by Kiper with San Diego CB Jason Verrett ranked second and Miami RT Ju'Wuan James ranked third. Here's what he wrote about Watkins.
1. Sammy Watkins, WR, Buffalo
I didn't like how much Buffalo gave up for the right to draft Watkins in a draft loaded with WR talent, but it's not like I was ever down on the player (as you can see). So far Watkins has been really good, leading a surprising, 2-0 Buffalo team in catches (11) and targets (15), and he already has three plays of 20-plus yards. If drafting Watkins was about helping second-year QB EJ Manuel, so far it's clearly been a smart strategy. If I'm watching one thing, it's whether Watkins can stay healthy. Hopefully he will.
Fellow Bills rookie Preston Brown was ranked 10th.
10. Preston Brown, OLB, Buffalo
The third-rounder out of Louisville has been called on to play right away in part due to the injury to a preseason ACL injury to Kiko Alonso, and while he's looked a bit over his head so far, he's making tackles for a defense that has played well and he's not coming off the field. He currently leads the Bills with 20 tackles.

When will the run start on RBs?Posted by on May 9, 2014 – 3:59 pm
Running back was the only position besides guard and center that did not see a player come off the board in round one of the 2014 NFL draft. In rounds two and three it's expected that a handful of running backs will come off the board. The question is when will the run begin?
Most of the NFL draft prognosticators believe Ohio State's Carlos Hyde will be the first back off the board. Hyde was a pre-draft visitor of the Bills along with five other running backs including LSU's Jeremy Hill, another highly touted prospect. Here's who and when ESPN's Mel Kiper believes a back will first come off the board.
"Carlos Hyde I love as a player. I think he's a mid-second to late second and could be the first back off the board," said Kiper. "He'll block, he'll catch, he'll run hard. He's physical. He can have a rookie year like Eddie Lacy did in Green Bay I believe."

Kiper: Where Shazier comes off the boardPosted by on April 29, 2014 – 9:11 am
Ohio State LB Ryan Shazier is arguably the fastest linebacker in the draft after clocking a sub 4.4 40 time at his pro day and tweaking a hamstring in the process. As we profiled on Buffalobills.com today Shazier is the modern day linebacker capable of playing all three downs with the athleticism to handle multiple roles. So where does he come off the board? ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper had his take on when Shazier hears his name in the 2014 NFL draft.
"Ryan Shazier I like because he's a run around guy. He doesn't always want to take on, but he can sift through traffic, very instinctive," said Kiper. "Gives you plenty of versatility, he can be a will and inside linebacker in a 3-4. I think he's a borderline first, early second."
Shazier was also a pre-draft visitor of the Bills and is a good bet to be a second round consideration for Buffalo if he's still on the board.

Kiper on draft range for LB MosleyPosted by on April 28, 2014 – 1:46 pm
Alabama linebacker prospect C.J. Mosley, who was a pre-draft visitor at One Bills Drive last week, has been widely projected as a first round pick. ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper went a step further narrowing the range down as to where he thinks Mosley will come off the board.
"I would say C.J. Mosley which is why he's seen as a first round pick somewhere between 8 and 21 in that area," said Kiper. "He is a guy that has pretty good coverage. He doesn't have great hands, but he's a good coverage guy. I wish his hands were a bit better because he missed a couple of interceptions opportunities this past year."
Seeing him in the eight to 21 range obviously puts him in Buffalo's territory at ninth overall, but most believe that the Bills will add to the offensive side of the ball with their first round pick.

Kiper mocks Bills 1st 3 picksPosted by on April 3, 2014 – 2:44 pm
Mock drafts are flying in left and right this time of year as the 2014 draft is just over a month away. ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper has taken on the task of making mock picks for all 32 teams in the league through the first three rounds. His picks for Buffalo are pretty interesting as he addressed some of the perceived top positional needs for the team.
Here's how things fell in Kiper's mock picks for Buffalo.
Buffalo Bills
Top needs: RT, WR, S, TE
Round 1 (9) OT Taylor Lewan, Michigan
Round 2 (41) TE Austin Seferian-Jenkins, Washington
Round 3 (73) WR Brandon Coleman, Rutgers
Analysis: I'd like to find a good matchup threat in the passing game for my young quarterback. But keeping him healthy is the first concern, and getting Lewan — who easily could have been a top-two pick last season in a thinner draft — at No. 9 is a good value at a position of need. The draft is deep with pass-catchers, and I take advantage of that in Round 2, taking Seferian-Jenkins even ahead of Jace Amaro. Scott Chandler is a pretty good player, but "ASJ" is at another level athletically, and his presence could also allow Buffalo to involve some two-tight end looks. I'm taking a shot on a big target in Round 3. At 6-foot-6, 225 pounds, Coleman provides great length and the ability to make plays over defenders. I also see safety as a need, but building around EJ Manuel wins out here based on how the board played out.

Kiper's latest mock goes OT for BillsPosted by on March 13, 2014 – 4:14 pm
Here's the latest mock draft pick that ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper has for the Bills with the ninth overall pick.
Kiper has the Bills taking an offensive tackle. Here's his pick and analysis.
No. 9 – T Taylor Lewan, Michigan
I like Cordy Glenn, but protection was still a problem for the Bills last year, so I have them placing a higher priority on keeping EJ Manuel upright and shifting their attention to the deep class of wide receivers in Round 2 or 3. I've said more than once that I think Lewan could have graded out as the top tackle last year if he chose to enter the draft, and while he has the prototypical length as a pass-blocker, he really gets after it as a run-blocker.
Kiper has Auburn OT Greg Robinson to the Rams at 2 and Texas A&M's Jake Matthews to the Falcons at 6. He also has Clemson WR Sammy Watkins off the board at 7 to the Bucs.

Kiper on depth at WR in 2014 draftPosted by on February 6, 2014 – 4:26 pm
Certainly a bounty of underclassmen has helped to improve the depth in this year's draft class at a bunch of positions, but none more so than wide receiver.
There are 20 extra receivers in the draft pool who are underclassmen led by Clemson's Sammy Watkins, who is expected to be the first wideout off the board, most likely in the top five picks. But ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper thinks if a team has a couple of pressing positional needs, they might be able to wait on receiver.
"I think if you look at the wide receiver position because of the tremendous depth in that first round, you could see six to nine wide receivers go in the first round," Kiper said. "A lot of them are underclassmen so you have to be conservative because they need to test well to be a legitimate first round pick."
Testing will obviously come in a couple of weeks at the NFL Combine, but Kiper thinks some teams will address other positional needs first if they are not as deep as receiver, provided the value is right when they're on the clock.
"There's going to be an opportunity at wide receiver with guys in the third, fourth and fifth round who could get it done," he said. "Wide receiver is a position you can maybe wait on."

Kiper: UB's Mack could shine at CombinePosted by on February 6, 2014 – 2:42 pm
UB OLB Khalil Mack is considered one of the top pass rushing prospects in the 2014 NFL draft class. Being an elite athletic prospect, ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper believes Mack could really wow NFL talent evaluators at the NFL Combine in a couple of weeks.
Kiper believes a strong workout performance by Mack, could potentially vault Mack into the top five or even top three territory.
"Mack could have an incredible Combine workout and could really shoot up (the board)," said Kiper on a national conference call Thursday. "I have him going seven right now to Tampa Bay, but he could shoot up into the mix at three very easily."

Kiper goes OT for Bills at 9Posted by on February 6, 2014 – 11:34 am
It's Mel Kiper's second mock draft and he's got Buffalo taking one of the top offensive tackles in the class with the ninth overall pick.
With Auburn's Greg Robinson already off the board to the Rams at two, he has Buffalo taking Jake Matthews, the Texas A&M offensive tackle at nine. Here's his breakdown on the pick.
Analysis: The injuries to EJ Manuel last season would make you think pass-blocking has to be a priority, but where the Bills' offensive line was really bad was in creating any push in the run game. You don't just protect a young QB by creating a pretty pocket, it's also nice when he can hand the ball off with any reasonable sense of optimism. Matthews will help. I suspect he'd jump in right away at right tackle and succeed — he can play left or right — and his ability to finish as a run-blocker could pay early dividends.
Having watched four of Matthews games from last season he is one of the most technically sound tackles in the draft. He also is remarkably light on his feet and resets like he's an NBA point guard.
I agree with Kiper that Robinson probably does have the most upside, but it's hard not to like Matthews too. And there's also Michigan's Taylor Lewan. Bottom line is if the Bills want to go tackle early, they'll have options.

Kiper bumps up his 2013 draft grade for BillsPosted by on January 23, 2014 – 4:23 pm
ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper, to his credit, reviews his post-draft grades of each NFL club around this time of year when the first regular season for that draft class is complete. Kiper bumped up his grade for the Bills looking back on Buffalo's 2013 draft class.
Kiper went from an initial grade of C- to a B. Here's what he wrote.
Buffalo Bills
|EJ Manuel
|Florida State
|Robert Woods
|Kiko Alonso
|Marquise Goodwin
|Duke Williams
|Jonathan Meeks
|Dustin Hopkins
|Florida State
|Chris Gragg
Post-draft grade: C-
Summary: Well, the Bills are due for a bump. Last April I summarized: "The Bills hit needs, I just think they made a major reach with the biggest need of all, so that value gained from the added picks was in some ways squandered on Manuel." If you recall, the Bills traded down and added picks, but then they drafted Manuel at No. 16, which I simply thought was too high. Manuel had his moments, but he mostly just looked like a rookie QB and we're still not sure if the Bills have a solution at the game's most important position. But they clearly deserve a bump for value added later. Alonso was my top rookie of 2013 league-wide due to overall impact, Woods should be a pretty good No. 2 wide receiver and Goodwin added some value. They also get credit for Nickell Robey, one of the better undrafted signings in terms of early value. Decent return so far, but much is wrapped up in Manuel.
New grade: B

Kiper has Alonso atop his rookie ranksPosted by on November 7, 2013 – 2:15 pm
The legend of Bills MLB Kiko Alonso is apparently still growing. He now sits atop the rookie rankings of ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper in his latest column.
Kiper wrote the following on Alonso below.
I wrote up Kiko Alonso in my 2013 draft guide as one of the top six inside linebackers in the draft. I thought he was hurt a little bit because, although he has outstanding athleticism, he didn't work out at the combine, which inevitably provides a bump to the best athletes. He also had only one year as a full-time starter at Oregon. But one of Alonso's great skills at Oregon was his ability to "sift through the trash" (scouting phrase) and deal with traffic. In other words, he was able to see the ball and make plays through blocking havoc and contact, maintaining his balance and quickness.
I think those skills have made the transition easier for him. The game, and the traffic, just doesn't seem to move too quickly for him, just as it didn't at Oregon. So far this season, the Buffalo Bills have benefited. Although Alonso might lack experience, he plays with great instincts and has that extra set of eyes to make plays amid all the chaos.
This week, he moves to the top of my Rookie Rankings, barely edging out another AFC East star.
1. Kiko Alonso, ILB, Buffalo Bills: Continues to perform at a consistently high level week in and week out. Through Week 9, he's third in the NFL in total tackles, with 89 (just one behind leaders Vontaze Burfict and Sean Lee), and has four interceptions, which is most on the team, plus he gets a bonus because he literally has not come off the field for the Bills' defense, so he has played nearly 700 snaps. He is not playing perfect football, but he's been a huge part of the defensive rise for Buffalo.
For those that missed it Buffalobills.com had Alonso wired for sound in last week's game against Kansas City. Robert Woods and EJ Manuel were listed in the 'Next in Line' category for Kiper, kind of like an honorable mention.
The other AFC East star that Kiper was referring to was the Jets' DT Sheldon Richardson.

Kiper likes LB Simon for BillsPosted by on April 11, 2013 – 3:44 pm
ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper has mocked out his draft to the third round. And his viable third round option for the Bills is DE/OLB John Simon from Ohio State.
Simon has a work ethic that parallels another former Ohio State LB in Chris Spielman. A two-time captain for the Buckeyes, Simon was the heart and soul of team. He had a minor bursa sac injury at the end of last season, but tested well running a 4.66 40-time at 6'2″ 257 pounds.
"You look at John Simon I like the way he plays the game," said Kiper. "He's got a lot of versatility. He plays with energy. You look at John Simon, you think early to mid third round. I project him to Buffalo, 71st pick overall. Energy, kind of like the old Mike Vrabel who came out of Ohio State, had a nice career in NFL. Plays down end, gives you some scheme versatility. Great kid. Tremendously hard worker, great passion for the game. I think John Simon solidly in the third round now."
The only drawback to Simon's game is his coverage ability.

Round 2 could present high drama for QBsPosted by on April 10, 2013 – 4:34 pm
A handful of NFL clubs are in the market for a long term solution at quarterback. Bills GM Buddy Nix has said as much since last fall concerning Buffalo's situation at the position. But with a quarterback class that most so called experts believe doesn't offer much in the way of top 10 talent, many of the teams looking to add a signal caller will wait until round two. Kiper sees that as a potentially risky scenario for those clubs.
"You have to be careful, or you can get lucky," said Kiper. "Cincinnati waited for Andy Dalton. Everybody thought Cincinnati was going to trade up to get Andy Dalton or would have to trade up to get Andy Dalton. It didn't work that way. San Diego, Drew Brees fell to them after they made the deal for Michael Vick to go to Atlanta that year and it allowed them to get LaDainian Tomlinson and then they got Drew Brees."
Nix was a part of San Diego's scouting staff at the time, and he was rewarded again for being patient in last year's draft when Buffalo saw OT Cordy Glenn fall to them at 41.
"It has worked being patient and getting some good luck and some good fortune," said Kiper. "But to get Nassib where (the Bills) are picking in the second round, that's something you would have to say is debatable. That's at 41 and he could very easily go before that."
In round two the pick order goes as follows.
33 Jacksonville
34 San Francisco from Kansas City
35 Philadelphia
36 Detroit
37 Cincinnati from Oakland
38 Arizona
39 New York Jets
40 Tennessee
41 Buffalo
Jacksonville, Philadelphia, Arizona and the Jets are all clubs that could consider quarterback and all four pick in front of the Bills in the second round. Kiper, who assumes the Bills would covet Nassib, believes if the Bills truly want him they may need to move up the board.
"The strength of their conviction on the quarterback will determine a lot of that," said Kiper of the Bills. "If they feel they have to get Ryan Nassib, then they'll move out and move up."
That could prove difficult with just six picks in Buffalo's arsenal in this draft unless they elect to use future picks.
"That's determined by their feelings," said Kiper. "Are they hoping to just be lucky and have good fortune? Or are they going to be aggressive and move up to go get him? That's one of the interesting scenarios in this draft."

Latest Kiper mock goes OLB for BillsPosted by on March 12, 2013 – 9:37 am
It's been stated more than once that if Buffalo can't land a quarterback they like that's fitting of the value of eighth overall and they can't find a willing trade partner to move down that they'll take the best defensive player on the board. ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper has just that scenario playing out for Buffalo in his latest mock draft.
Kiper has Georgia OLB Jarvis Jones going to the Bills at eighth overall in round one. Here was his analysis on the picks, which also indicated the Bills anticipated measure of activity in the free agent market.
COLLEGE: Georgia
Pick analysis: Want to guarantee an improvement in your pass rush? Here's your safe pick. Jones has been exceptional for two years now against elite competition, and demands help when he comes off the edge. He's not Von Miller in terms of his athleticism, but he has the chance to produce at a slightly lower level, making him a good value at this slot.
Free-agency factor: The Bills spent a lot in free agency last year, and won't be as active this year. Quarterback could come into play at this pick because of the lack of options on the market. But if Arizona takes Smith, I don't like the value here, and they'd be better served finding a QB in Round 2.
I tend to agree with Kiper's assessment on QB value at 8. If Geno Smith is off the board, it's probably best to either go best defensive player on the board or trade down to land a better quarterback value late in round one or early round two. In Kiper's mock he has Arizona taking Smith at 7th overall.

Kiper's new mock has LB to BillsPosted by on February 7, 2013 – 3:40 pm
ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper has just released his second mock draft. He makes special mention that he believes trades could happen for teams like Kansas City (1st) and Arizona (7th) where they move out of the top 10 since there are no quarterbacks that fit the value there. That's why he also doesn't select a QB for the Bills at 8.
Kiper chose Georgia LB Alec Ogletree for Buffalo at eighth overall. Ogletree had 112 tackles, 3 sacks and an interception in 2012. Here was his analysis.
Analysis: Sticking with a linebacker here, but going with the higher ceiling. The Bills really need help at interior linebacker, where Kelvin Sheppard is merely adequate. Ogletree was at one time a safety, and you see those kinds of instincts when he plays, because he simply flies to the ball. He's a great pursuit player and a guy who will shoot gaps and make stops in the backfield, but that's also because he has really good instincts. A big key with Ogletree is versatility. There's no reason he can't work on the edge, or inside. He has the ceiling of a player who can do it all.

Mayock: 3-4 QBs will go round 1Posted by on January 22, 2013 – 1:31 pm
Just days after ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper chose not to put a single quarterback in his initial first-round mock draft, NFL Network draft analyst Mike Mayock had a much different opinion.
Mayock during NFL Network's Senior Bowl coverage said he expects as many as four signal callers to come off the board in round one come last April.
"It's early in this entire process," Mayock said. "Everyone says there's no Andrew Luck, there's no Robert Griffin III. … I guarantee you by the time we get to April, there will be three to four quarterbacks taken in the first round, and most of them are coming out of this game."
Mayock made reference to four of the QBs participating at the Senior Bowl this week, including N.C. State's Mike Glennon and Syracuse's Ryan Nassib.

Kiper's grade for BillsPosted by on April 29, 2012 – 9:55 am
ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper has put out his draft grades. Here's what he had for the Bills.
Kiper gave Buffalo a B- overall grade and a B grade for value. This is what he wrote.
Summary: I had the Bills selecting Stephon Gilmore in my final mock draft, and they ended up taking him. I didn't see CB as the top need, but it's a solid pick. Gilmore is ready to start immediately for a secondary that allowed 7.3 yards per pass attempt in 2011. The Bills pass defense should be better in 2012 when you put together an improved pass rush and the draft help in the secondary. Ron Brooks, a burner out of LSU, could stick as a slot cornerback. He lacks size, but can fly. I don't share the opinion that Cordy Glenn can be a left tackle, but he was a total steal at No. 41. He was on my final Big Board at No. 14. If the Bills move him inside (or to right tackle), he'll succeed. Zebrie Sanders was a steal in the sixth round. They got a wideout with T.J. Graham, as well as a pair of linebackers to bring in and battle for a spot. Pretty good weekend for Buddy Nix and the Bills.

Kiper: A lot of mixed opinionsPosted by on April 23, 2012 – 7:41 am
While there seems to be a general consensus that there's a top six grouping of elite prospects in this year's draft class, ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper says there's much debate about whether all six belong in the top tier.
"I think there's a group up at the top that's very much mixed opinion on," Kiper said. "I think a lot of the talk about it always goes down so far. Well, I can go down to seven and tell you people are kind of critical of some of those players and don't think they deserve to be up there. The only consensus is really the two quarterbacks, Luck and Griffin.
"So this perception going in or this feeling going in that everybody agrees with the tiering, they don't. You'll talk to five teams, you'll get five different tiers and you'll get guys in the top seven of one team that the other team doesn't even think three of those guys even belong in the top 15. So there's no consensus to seven, eight, nine, ten. I can just tell you that.
"There's some people that have some concerns about Matt Kalil being in the top group. There's people that have concerns about Blackmon being up there. Melvin Ingram, where do you play him? Some don't think he's a defensive end, some think he's an outside linebacker, mixed opinion there. You talk about Michael Floyd, mixed opinion there, should he be up in the top ten? Quinton Coples, should he be up there in the top 10 to 15? Dontari Poe, defensive nose tackle, defensive tackle, should he be up there?
"So it's really a case where, like I say, I think the ones that I haven't heard a lot, you could say Trent Richardson, but he's a running back. Is it enough? I've said this for 30 years, is it enough value, should you take a running back in the top five when you can get great running backs down the road?"
All of the mixed opinion just serves as another reminder as to how varied draft boards can be from team to team, which is what makes the NFL draft so unpredictable in the first place. Of course that's also the appeal.
At the end of the day, opinions are still going to be all over the place, and I think tiering it is a dangerous way to go.

Kiper, Mayock: Tannehill needs timePosted by on April 17, 2012 – 8:04 am
Despite all the hype about Texas A&M QB Ryan Tannehill's so called rocketing draft stock, some of the more notable draft analysts aren't sold on him coming and helping a team right away. Tannehill is making a pre-draft visit with the Bills today (Tuesday).
"I can see all the attributes of a (Jake) Locker in Tannehill," said NFL Network analyst Mike Mayock. "He's a big, strong kid that can push the ball down the field. He's athletic. I like everything about him except for the fact that on tape, I think he stares his receivers down and waits for them to come up before he rips it. That's typical of a young quarterback without a lot of starts. I look at him and say kind of like Jake Locker. He's going to take a little it of time. It's going to take a year or so."
"I think there are some questions about Tannehill in terms of how quickly he'll be able to play," said ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper. "I thought last year that Blaine Gabbert wasn't going to be ready to play in an NFL offense, but that was based on the offense he ran at Missouri. With Tannehill its lack of experience. Against Oklahoma 50% comp pct., Kansas St. 58.7%, Texas 40.8% with 3 picks, 3 picks against Oklahoma, 3 picks against Oklahoma State 59.6%. So against those better teams he struggled. Versus ranked teams only 59.8% with 9 picks. He is spectacular in the red zone. 63.5% 18 TDs and one INT. You like the potential and talent. So he'll go high."
If Tannehill is going to come off the board as high as the mock drafters have him forecast, the likelihood of him sitting a year are pretty remote. A quarterback draft in the top 15 picks is largely expected to come in and start right away.

Kiper on Luck and RG IIIPosted by on January 31, 2012 – 2:57 pm
On a nearly two-hour conference call ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper answered just about everything under the sun with respect to the 2012 NFL draft class. Naturally the subject of Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III came up. Kiper was asked if there's any way that RG III overtakes Luck for the top spot in the draft. I think everyone knows the answer.
"Andrew Luck is the best quarterback grade I've given in 35 years of doing this," Kiper said. "Andrew Luck is viewed as a more athletic Peyton Manning. You cannot pass on Andrew Luck. I haven't given a grade as high as Luck since 1983 and that was John Elway."
As for Griffin it seems the only questions on him involve his true measured height per Kiper.
"I thought he was a quarterback all along," Kiper said. "I think the fact that he can throw that deep ball so accurately, he's a straight line guy in terms of mobility. He was a hurdler. He's not Michael Vick. He doesn't change direction and isn't as explosive in and out of his cuts as Vick. Vick is the best running quarterback I've ever seen, but RG III is a much better passer. That's why he has such a high grade.
"His mobility is excellent. He can make people miss. He's not as dynamic a runner as Vick. Certainly his intelligence, character and game management is all excellent. His height isn't ideal, he's listed as 6'2". If he's not then there won't be that buzz. It is what it is."

Pardeep Singh was working behind the counter of his family's convenience store, Liberty Mart, in Battle Creek, Mich. when a man entered the store and demanded money. Singh handed over some money and tried to calm the robber by talking to him. Unsatisfied with the amount of cash, the criminal said he needed more money, revealed a knife and attempted to get behind the counter. As the robber moved towards Singh, Singh retrieved a gun and shot the criminal in the head, ending the robbery.
The wounded robber was taken to a local hospital where he was listed in critical condition. No one else was harmed during the incident. (WOOD-TV, Battle Creek, Mich. 12/04/12)

Saline County Timberland Packed Into $13.5M Sale
Posted 12/9/2013 12:00 am
Almost 9,000 acres of timberland in western Saline County sold for $13.5 million.
Green Bay Packaging Inc. of Green Bay, Wis., bought the property from Weyerhaeuser Co. of Federal Way, Wash.
The 8,973 acres stretch from the Garland County line to within 4.5 miles of Paron and lie roughly 2 miles south of Lake Winona and 2 miles north of Hot Springs Village.
You might recall the two parties struck a $14.2 million deal for about 8,835 acres in Saline County back in 2011.
Both properties support Green Bay's pulp and paperboard mill in Morrilton.

"Brushes can hold bacteria, which can cause aggravations to recur. Instead, use disposable sponges you can toss after each use," says Susan Posnick, a celebrity makeup artist in Dallas. And keep a skin correcting powder on hand to spot-treat blotches. One Posnick likes: Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Talc-Free Mineral Correcting Powder ($13.95; at drugstores). Swirl together the three shadespink (to brighten), yellow (to add warmth) and green (to mask redness)and brush it on the affected area.

Working with Immigrant Women addresses the gap between the needs of newcomer women and established structures and practices in Canada's mental health care system.
With an interest in changing paradigms in mental health practice, the multidisciplinary group of authors—including researchers, mental health practitioners, health promoters, community development workers, university professors, diversity trainers, program coordinators and community mental health advocates—analyzes issues affecting women's mental health and illnesses within an immigration and settlement context, critically examines literature and current research and suggests practice strategies for mental health professionals working with this population.
Working with Immigrant Women highlights the intersecting oppressions experienced by women while emphasizing their strengths and resiliencies. It also demonstrates how women are active participants in shaping their mental health and responding to mental health problems.
Topics include:
The authors provide innovative approaches that mental health professionals can use to enhance current practice and ensure equitable, relevant and comprehensive care. This book is a valuable resource for health care professionals, administrators, educators, researchers and policy-makers, and is an ideal course text.

As part of Allegro's mission to provide musical opportunities for children in the
community, Allegro began partnering with area schools to offer a choir in their
school. At present, partnership choirs are underway at Cherry View Elementary in
Lakeville (Oct-Dec 2013) and Oak Ridge Elementary in Eagan (Feb-early May
2014). Allegro values its outreach into area schools as an important way of
supporting vocal music education for young people in our community.
Bel Canto is a treble choir comprised of singers in grades 6-8. Rehearsals
emphasize the healthy development of a free and natural vocal production, while
honing each singer's musicianship, expressivity and ear training abilities. Basic
music theory and sight-reading development is part of Bel Canto's curriculum.
The 2013-2014 season begins the week of Sept. 9. The choirs performs at both
the December and May concerts. In the fall of 2008, Bel Canto performed the
world premiere of
Ah, Nagasaki
with the Minnesota Chorale. Bel Canto was
invited to perform at Orchestra Hall in Minneapolis in a festival at the national
conference of Chorus America in June 2012.
There are two Bel Canto choirs: One rehearses on Monday evenings at Trinity
Evangelical Free Church in Lakeville from 6:30-8:00pm, the other on Thursday
evenings at Rosemount United Methodist Church from 6:30-8:00pm. To set-up

interests and skills. Basic training and musicianship is combined with a positive
and creative environment. Prima Voce's 2013-2014 season begins the week of
Sept. 9. Prima Voce performs at both the December and May concerts.
Students in Prima Voce may choose to attend one of two sites: Monday evenings
at Trinity Evangelical Free Church in Lakeville or Thursday evenings at Rosemount
United Methodist Church. All Prima Voce choirs meets from 6:30-7:45pm. Prima
Voce is non-auditioned. Registrations are accepted on a first-come, first-served
basis until each choir is full.
This non-auditioned choir class is a positive, fun and structured environment
where young performers can explore their voice, develop their ear, build music
literacy and prepare themselves for the rigors of successful choral membership.
Vivace is structured using the principles of Orff-Kodaly music education. Open to
students in grades 2-3, this class participates in both the December and May
concerts. Students in Vivace may attend one of two Vivace sections: Mondays at
Trinity Evangelical Free Church in Lakeville, or Thursdays at Rosemount United
Methodist Church. All Vivace sections meet from 6:30-7:20pm. Registrations are
accepted on a first-come, first-served basis until each section is full.

Delta to offer international Wi-Fi service
Delta Air Lines will offer Wi-Fi on international flights starting early next year, the carrier announced today.
Internet service will be available on Delta's long-haul international fleet of more than 150 aircraft, which include its Boeing 777, 767, 747, Airbus 330 and the transoceanic Boeing 757, starting in early 2013. The airline already offers WiFi on its entire domestic fleet of 550 mainline aircraft.
By the time installation of the international Wi-Fi service is completed in 2015, Delta will be operating about 1,000 Wi-Fi-equipped aircraft worldwide.
READ MORE: Air France, KLM to try Wi-Fi on long haul flights
READ MORE: Airlines look to satellites for Wi-Fi in the sky
U.S. airlines have been quick to provide Wi-Fi on domestic flights but not so much on international routes because they've been constrained by technology. Most airlines use a system that involves stations on the ground that transmit signals to the aircraft. Those stations are not installed in the water.
But Delta's international Wi-Fi service will be made possible through the use of satellites being developed by service provider Gogo. The company is using high-bandwith Ku-band capacity satellites to provide coverage over water. Delta is the first airline that will be using this technology.
ALSO ONLINE: More airlines offer Wi-Fi, but fliers balk at paying
The satellite technology tends to be more expensive, but Gogo and Delta both say that passengers are eager to stay connected at all times, even while flying over the ocean.
"Delta's advancements in technology have been a key component to our improvements in the customer travel experience and have been cited by J.D. Power and Associates and PCWorld magazine as important aspects of travel," said Tim Mapes, Delta's senior vice president of marketing, in a press release. "With our expansion of international Wi-Fi options across our fleet, Delta customers will be able to stay connected throughout their journey."
A United spokeswoman said that the carrier is in the process of installing system-wide satellite-based Wi-Fi on its entire mainline fleet, including long-haul international aircraft. The first installation is expected to be completed later this summer, with full roll-out completed by 2015.

quiet and beautiful location! Super if you want to stay away from the crowds. Don t go here if you want a buzzing nightlife scene... Room price is ok, but they charge you for everything else which makes it (too) expensive . Communication with guests could be better & more friendly too (if new guests arrive @ koh phi phi pier, the resort charges them for the transport to the resort, & tell this áfter the boattaxi arrives @ the resort...)There is nó other way to get there with luggage! (apart from the 1 hour jungle hike across the hill) . friendly restaurantstaff though, but limited menu for vegetarians.

Very beautiful place, very relaxing. If you stay in the top bungalow, be careful about your staff left outside .. everyday we had a guest ... a MONKEY enjoying her breakfast :)We stayed there 5 nights and we did the trips around. The staff should be little bit more polite, especially one pretty thai girl who tried to cheat on me, maybe to earn extra money :0) and she was very naughty. Guys at restaurant were wonderful, talkative, gave us advise etc. Sure if I go back to Phi Phi I would stay here again, mainly for the cool bungalows, sea (at Tonsai there are too many people so a bit dirty. I would recommend to the Beach resort to have a little kitchen for people where we can boil e.g. hot water any time we wanted. We asked them for hot water for my own herb tea and it was pretty problem....obviously I am not paying to the restaurant.

|I've got a couple of questions about frameless corner cabinets. Slowly but surely, I'm pinning down details on my cabinet plans.
If I have and angled corner cabinet (wall or base), do I need to include a filler between the regular cabinets and the corner cabinet?
Also, is there any reason why I shouldn't use an angled corner base with a super susan over a pie cut corner cabinet with a super susan? I don't see many kitchens with angled base corners like that. I'm probably going with a laminate countertop if that makes a difference.
If I go with a pie cut corner cabinet, I have to decide between a miter, butt or pie joint for the door. Is it just personal preference on how you want the stiles to look in the corner or is there a functional advantage for one style over the other?
Follow-Up Postings:
|I have corner cabinets that has 2 small doors that sit at a 90 degree angle and are hinged together to open outward. Is that what you are calling a pie cut corner? I also have full overlay doors and we didn't use a filler. The hinges on the doors are an engineering marvel. They don't take any additional space to open than a normal door takes. My corner doors match my other cabinets door and drawers, which all happen to be mitered. Does you cabinetry company not have doors that match the rest of your cabinetry for the corner cabinets?
I chose to use the pie cut cabinets on both the top and the bottom cabinets in my corner. IMO, the angle cabinets look a bit dated - just my opinion.
- Posted by jenocurley (My Page) on Sat, Jun 20, 09 at 23:19
|If your corner cabinet has a 17 inch front like mine does then your laminate edge choices could be limited. At least mine were to the straight one, beveled and I cant remember but I think there was one other. I personally like the straight edge anyway but it is something you may need to consider.
- Posted by desertsteph (My Page) on Sun, Jun 21, 09 at 3:43
|"I chose to use the pie cut cabinets on both the top and the bottom cabinets in my corner"
nkkp - your upper corner cab isn't on an angle? i don't think I've ever seen one that wasn't on an angle - unless left dead in the corner...
am I misunderstanding this? if not, can you post a pic of it?
- Posted by desertsteph (My Page) on Sun, Jun 21, 09 at 3:50
|she posted with a pic of her corner cab and side cab/drawers. a bit close... check out her post - is still on p1
|I'm not a fan of the diagonal door for the look or the function. If you use the 90 degree, pie cut option, you have more floor space and longer counter run in each direction, making the work area more spacious, it seems to me. Corners of counters are already deep and the diagonal makes them even harder to reach and utilize. It also seems easier to access the contents of the cabinet with the piecut shape.
You can do a pie cut upper just like a lower to avoid the diagonal door, and without having a dead corner. It can either hinge in the middle or, I think, if done carefully, you can have doors that meet in the center. That might be a custom solution, though...and even with the door that hinges in the middle, I'm not sure if it's an option with all cabinet lines.
- Posted by bmorepanic (My Page) on Sun, Jun 21, 09 at 8:06
|There can be a minor issue with angled base and "pie cut" uppers. The angled base makes YOU further from the corner, so reaching into the pie cut might be an issue if you're height challenged.
|Thanks for all the comments!
The concern about the filler is only with the angled corners because these will be Scherrs frameless with full overlay doors. I currently have an angled corner cabinet on top and a pie cut Lazy Susan base. I don't have a filler on top but these doors are not full overlay so they won't interfere with each other.
BTW, I know I have to have a filler next to the walls but I don't really understand how you handle filler with full overlay doors. Do you normally build it out so it is flush with the door front? If the doors go edge to edge, it seems like it would look funny to have a filler section that is back 3/4", especially in the middle of a run. Scherrs can make any size so I wouldn't need any filler in the middle, except maybe with an angled corner.
I hear you on the angled base cabinet making it harder to reach the corner. I also have an aesthetic issue with a single wall angled cabinet when all the other angles in the kitchen are 90 degrees. I wasn't sure if duplicating the angle on the base cabinets would be better or worse but I feel like a blind corner in a wall cabinet would be much less accessible than in a base cabinet so I'm hesitant to lose the angled wall cabinet. OTOH, I've got two narrow wall cabinets on each side of the angled corner and making that a blind corner would give me wider cabinets with more flexibility of use.
Jenocurley, I was wondering if an angled base would limit my laminate edge options. That may be the deciding factor. I hate square edges because they chip so easily. Does anyone know if you have to have a miter corner if you don't get a square edge? My current counter doesn't have a miter but it has a wood trim edge and I don't think I want that again. Also, can they do a miter and put a special edge with the weird shape like I've got here:
The lines are where seams are. I'm not thrilled with a miter but a straight seam one foot from the end isn't great either (the one along the bump out isn't really an issue). I think I'd prefer a miter if I can get some type of rounded edge with that.
Finally, here's a picture of the Lazy Susan door options that I was asking about.
I was wondering if there was a difference in ease of use or durability between the different styles. My current lazy Susan has the door that turn with it. I thought it would be easier than opening a door but it seems like people here don't have problems with the doors and I can get a 32" Super Susan where my current lazy Susan is only 26" across. I also think I'd prefer to open the door and look inside over spinning the thing to see what comes around. It never fails that no matter which way I turn it, what I want is the farthest from where I start.
|Yes, I have that type of corner unit as the wall and as the base unit. I'll take a picture of it tomorrow and upload it for you. I think my doors are the pie style, but I'll have to check to make sure. For the fillers, We did add an extra piece on top of the main filler to flush it out even to the cabinet doors. One thought, You don't need a 3" filler. We ripped ours down to about 1" in most places.
|A picture would be great Nancy. So you have a lazy susan up top too? I've got in my notes that there are a lot more options for blind wall corners than blind base corners but I haven't hunted down specifics on those yet.

Is Christmas a Pagan Holiday?
from R.C. Sproul Dec 19, 2014 Category: ArticlesThat question comes up every year at Christmastime. In the first place, there's no direct biblical commandment to celebrate the birth of Jesus on December 25. There's nothing in the Bible that would even indicate that Jesus was born on December 25. In fact, there's much in ... Keep Reading
Receiving Joy and Strength
from R.C. Sproul Feb 14, 2010 Category: R.C. SproulThere is still another vital aspect to the "why" of Jesus' departure. He said, "If I do not go away, the Helper (Paraclete) will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you." Jesus' departure was tied to Pentecost. There is no Pentecost without ascension. As the invested King of kings, Jesus had the authority together with the Father to send His Holy Spirit in a new and powerful way upon the church. Jesus spoke of a certain necessity of His leaving in order for the Spirit to come. Herein was another great advantage. He declared, "Ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost has come upon you" (Acts 1:8, KJV). Keep Reading
Understanding Christ's New Role
from R.C. Sproul Feb 13, 2010 Category: R.C. SproulImagine an earthly situation where the heir-apparent to the throne meets with his closest friends on the eve of his own coronation. The new king's friends would hardly desire that the king skip his own coronation. There is no greater benefit to the new king's friends than that he ascends to the throne. Keep Reading

Bearing One Another's Burdens
from John MacArthur Feb 12, 2010 Category: Tabletalk MagazineThe troubles of this world are manifold and relentless. It's not easy to stay so focused on heaven that we remain unperturbed by the afflictions of earthly life. We're commanded, of course, to set our minds on things above, not on earthly things (Col. 3:2), but even the most committed believer will testify that earthly trials sometimes obscure the heavenly perspective.

Two Birds, One Stone
from R.C. Sproul Jr. Feb 10, 2010 Category: Tabletalk MagazineWhen error comes into the church we face a set of obligations. First, we must confront the error. The world has embraced a live-and-let-live relativism that will accept any foolishness, but will not accept the wisdom of calling foolishness by its name. Too often the church follows suit. We want to get along, and so pet the wolves in our midst rather than drive them away. Our calling, as faithful soldiers of the kingdom, is to combat error in whatever form it takes. Second, we must not err when confronting the error. If we would have sound and accurate thinking in the church, we must be sound and accurate in what we denounce. Keep Reading
R.C. Sproul's Most Influential Books
from Tim Challies Feb 09, 2010 Category: R.C. SproulYou can tell a lot about a person by the books they read and can tell even more by the books that have most influenced him. As you can imagine, Dr. Sproul has read many (many!) books in his lifetime. Here he has put together a list of just a few of the most influential books that have helped to shape his thinking and ministry. Keep Reading
Pilgrims (and Their Hosts)
from R. Scott Clark Feb 08, 2010 Category: Tabletalk MagazineA wise traveler adapts to the customs and languages of the host country. When we lived abroad, people never asked us about our health. It is considered rude. The day we left England, however, we were peppered with questions by an American woman who was being polite. What was rude in England was polite in Dallas. Changing theological traditions is like traveling abroad. Upon arrival, the visitor is likely to find new language and culture, that is, a new theology, piety, and practice. This cross-cultural encounter creates opportunities and obligations for hosts and pilgrims alike. Keep Reading

Accepting Our Helper
from R.C. Sproul Feb 07, 2010 Category: R.C. SproulIt was 3 a.m., Amsterdam, 1965. I couldn't sleep. I was pacing the floor of our apartment like a caged lion. My body was more than ready for sleep, but my mind refused to shut down. I had spent that day studying the doctrine of the ascension of Christ, the climactic moment of His departure from this world. One statement of Jesus gripped my mind in a vise. The statement was part of Jesus' farewell discourse to His disciples in the upper room. He said: "Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you" (John 16:7). Keep Reading

Pretty Little Liars Review: Daddy Dearestby Teresa Lopez at . Comments
It's the ultimate face-off!
No, not Spencer vs. Mona (although that was pretty awesome). This week's showdown was for the title of creepiest villain, and I think Byron won hands down.
Despite the title, "Mona-Mania" gave us a lot more to fear from Aria's unfaithful father than Mona. Yet we shouldn't lull ourselves into a false sense of security, as many of the girls were accused of doing this week. As we found out from creator Marlene King, there's a lot crazy plot developments coming our way.
There's definitely a Mona-scheme in the works, but there's also more to Byron than meets the eye.
From his first appearance, Byron couldn't help but subtly intimidate Aria by mentioning that the movie she was watching involved a man with a head in hatbox. Um, okay, dad. Then he makes sure that Aria knows he found the diary pages by dropping by her room to remind her about her super-secret hiding spot for her Halloween candy. Also, Aria, hiding evidence that implicates your father in the murder of one of your best friends in your boot? Not smart!
But I digress. There's no need for Byron to let Aria know he had the pages, except to scare her a little. Why is he trying to creep out his own daughter?
Then he gets violent with Meredith over his snooping. It's seems like there definitely is another side to Aria's dad that she and we haven't really seen before. Sure, he was a bad husband and father with that whole cheating thing, but violence and murder are quite a leap.
Speaking of Meredith...she decided to open up to Aria about the night Ali died. Byron came to see Meredith that night after getting his wife tipsy on wine and leaving her passed out at home. She already knew about the blackmailing, so she didn't need the diary pages she stole back from Byron for that little tidbit. Meredith told Aria that Byron did go meet Allison that night. If this is true, Meredith possibly suspected Byron all this time. Why would she still be hanging around him?
I'd like to trust Meredith, but it seems a little too convenient that she's suddenly Aria's ally. She suggests not bringing up any of the evidence against Byron, apparently for his protection, and she doesn't seem that worried that she's dating a potential murderer. I just can't believe she's 100% genuine. Do you trust her?
Trust has also been a big issue between Mona and the girls as well, especially Hanna. Mona's been playing her victim card quite frequently, and it all seems very rehearsed and fake. Whenever confronted with her shady actions, she fakes an emotional meltdown. When the girls begin to suspect her of surreptitiously texting as A, she's quick to not-so-subtly mention that she isn't allowed cell phone or the Internet...except for when Jason graciously monitors her online...for homework and stuff. Riiiiiight.
Hanna was right to call her out after finding out that she had been blackmailing Lucas all this time. Hanna's definitely made herself more of target, but that's better than just waiting around for Mona to strike.
Or is it?
Lucas and Paige both mentioned that these girls should be way more scared than they are. After this many attempts on their life, you would think they wouldn't blatantly antagonize A or at least be a little more cautious about where they spend their free time. Was a party out in the woods really such a good idea, Emily?
It caused poor Paige to have a panic attack, but it looks like Emily's just gotten stronger after dealing with A, Nate and the Halloween disaster. But, the question remains: should they be doing more to protect themselves?
It seems unlikely that anyone will be clever enough to predict A's next move. We had no idea why that random kid had his bike sabotaged at the end of last week's episode, but then it became clear that A was just clearing up a spot on the academic decathlon for Mona. This scheme gave us one of the best Spencer moments of Pretty Little Liars Season 3 or perhaps ever...until she choked. It didn't really seem like Spencer to fumble so badly, but it did expose another part of Mona's carefully crafted public persona - a faux fragility.
Tonight's episode definitely generated some serious drama, but again, it left behind more questions than answers:
- What was in that envelope Lucas had to deliver from Jason to Mona?
- What happened when Byron went to meet Ali?
- Why was Mona following Byron after he left his office?
- Who sloppily hid those masks by the train tracks?
- Was Lucas more involved than he let on?
- Is Spencer really going to find out about Toby soon (as teased in the promo for next week)?
- Will Andrew (newcomer and decathlon teammate) be a new love interest for Spencer?
- Does Aria have the flu or could it be *gulp* morning sickness?
I guess that's it for questions....except for, um, who killed Ali and who else is on the A team? But we don't expect answers to those anytime soon, do we?
What happened to the PLL Round Table? i used to love reading them and now there no where to be seen. Bring them back please
i dont think Aria is pregnant i agree that she is probs being poisoned by someone although i think it's meredith i wouldnt rule out it being byron or A seen as though she was feeling ill before meredith made her that tea.
There is definatly an air of creepy every time Toby is in a scene now that we know he's on the A team although i can't help but still love him.
What happened to the PLL R
I could see Aria believing she's pregnant, but chances are that she'll go to the doctor, get a blood test and then 'A' will switch the results somehow. Typical PLL.
As for Byron murdering Ali, I hope it's true. However, yet again another twist that it was probably Meredith and she knows Aria is closing in and she'd rather take down Byron then go down herself.
I haven't even watched the ep and I doubt that Aria is pregnant. Book Spoiler! In the books, Emily is the one of them that gets pregnant, so even though the show does deviate from the books, I doubt they'd switch it to Aria.
Meredith is defiantly up to something and I think she may have got the wrong idea of Ali's intentions and was jealous and did something to her... Toby going after Emily makes no sense and how did he know she would be there like at that spot and why did he stick around... and why did mona want to get rid of the lost woods/janitor dude?
Meredith is poisoning Aria. Marlene King said that there was a Misery-type episode coming up in the future. The title of next weeks episode is "Misery Loves Company" and focuses on Aria still being sick and Meredith 'taking care of her,' which she is not.
Aria being pregnant would surprise me, but it's ABCFamily and we know they love their pregnancy storylines so who knows! She has a lot going on right now anyway, and somehow her dad is getting even creepier as the series progresses. The Spencer vs. Mona scenes were my favourite part of the episode, Troian Bellisario and Jannel Parrish were spot on. It's worth noting that the new guy, Andrew, dated Spencer in the books, so maybe something will happen after the Toby reveal (which looks as though it's happening next week, finally!)
Also, it was interesting to finally see someone deal with Rosewood related trauma, which was another highlight of the episode for me. It added another layer to Paige's character and highlighted a new side of that relationship where Emily is caring for Paige, as opposed to Paige being Emily's rock throughout the first half of the season through her mourning etc.
Overall, I really enjoyed it. It was much more fun than the midseason premiere and at the same time moved the plot forward a good bit.
I liked this episode suprisingly. I read the review first and was like booo, but it was good. I liked that Emily decided to not be the scared girl she was last year. She was fierce and took charge. I wish Paige didn't stop her because she might have caught up to Toby. I hate Toby with a passion. I can see no reason why he is on A Team. He's a douche. I think the producers just made him part of A Team because he has this creepy look on his face that could pass of as evil and menacing.
Byron is so not the killer. Its Meredith, it has to be, The way they made it seem like she was scared of him was a little too much. She killed Alison because she didn't want Byron to pay or something. Total misdirect. I see through it.
I like this episode and of course Lucas is more involve then he let on. I think the only reason he is afraid is because he wanted out and the A team would not allow it. I also don't trust Meredith and the PLL need to learn that they cannot trust nobody.
I've said this for a while now.....those girls need to take self defense classes! And I'm sorry but they write these girls SO dumb someitmes. Some of the dumb ass shit they do is just too stupid to believe.
