Running Back Week 12 Rankings – Upgrades, Downgrades, Sleepers
Posted by Rob Warner in SPIN Articles, SPIN News & Views No Comments »
Each week we will analyze the matchups and provide our take on which RBs you should start and which should be benched based on difficult matchups, injuries, potential weather problems etc. Four offenses (Kansas City, Oakland, NY Giants, and NY Jets) are averaging over 145 rushing yards per game. On the flip side, the worst rushing attacks (averaging less than 90 rushing yards per game) can be found in Seattle, Arizona, Detroit, Dallas, and Denver.
If your Running Backs are facing these defenses you may want to go in a different direction unless you have every week stud starters. These Defenses have allowed less than 90 yards per game in 2010: Pittsburgh, Chicago, NY Giants, San Diego and the NY Jets
On the flip side if you have RBs facing these generous rush defense make sure that you take advantage and have your RBs active for the favorable matchup. Detroit, Carolina, Arizona, Indianapolis, Denver, Tampa and Buffalo are allowing over 130 yds/game on the ground.
If you usual starters are facing a top rush defense be sure to check out our week 12 Waiver Wire Running Back Recommendations as there might be better options available. Fred Jackson (vs PIT) , Cedric Benson (@NYJ) and MJD (vs NYG) could struggle in week 11. As if Frank Gore(vs ARZ) , Ray Rice (vs Tampa) and Steve Jackson (vs Denver) need any additional help they should carry your teams this week against defense that have been gashed by opposing runing games. Mike Tolbert (vs Indy) and Rashard Mendenhall (vs BUF) should also outproduce their season averages in very favorable matchups.
LestersLegends.com are forecasting Rashard mendenhall to have a monster week as they rank him #1 for a matchup against Buffalo's league worst run defense (167 yards/game).
FFtoolbox.com is expecting Houston's Arian Foster to explode in week 12 as they rank him #1 for a home matchup against a Titans defense that ranks 12th against the run (103 yards/game). The sky's the limit for fantasy #1 RB as he proved last week scoring twice against the Jets stout run defense.
Rotoprofessor.com is very optimistic on Carolina's Mike Goodson as they rank him #16 as the Panthers travel to Cleveland to face the Browns 21st ranked run defense – have only allowed 3 rushing TDs.
ProFootballWeekly.com has New England's Benjarvus Green-Ellis ranked 9th as the Patriots open turkey day against a Detroit defense ranked 26th against the run (allowed 11 rushing TDs).
UPGRADE: Jamaal Charles (@Seattle) – Charles in Charge is the No. 10 fantasy running back in non-PPR formats through 11 weeks and has the chance to vault your team into the playoffs with running friendly matchups against Seattle and Denver in the next weeks.
The Seahawks run defense has been in freefall over the past month and currently ranks 13th allowing 105 yards/game and 9 rushing TDs. The presence of Thomas Jones limits JC from becoming a top 5 option but through 10 games Charles has been one of the league's best dual threats averaging 120 yards/game from scrimmage (30 catches for 356 yards). Charles only has three TDs on the season but he is a threat to take to the house on any play and this week we expect him to top his 120 yard average as the league's #1 rushing attack will exert their will on an overmatched Seattle front 4.
DOWNGRADE: Cedric Benson (@ NY Jets) - Benson makes for a great sell high candidate after topping 100 yards and reaching the end zone against Buffalo's 32nd ranked run defense in week 11. This week he'll face a much stiffer test against NY Jets defense that ranks 5th against the run (90 yards/game) – allowing a league low 11 fantasy pts/game to opposing running games. Benson is averaging 75 yards/game (less than 4.0 YPC ) with just four TDs through 10 games. Trading Benson now is your best bet as Cincy has difficult matchups remaining with Pittsburgh and San Diego in the next month. The Bungles might decide to work Bernard Scott into the mix as this lost season winds down as Benson is impending free agent and there is no guarantee that he'll be back n tiger stripes in 2011.
SLEEPER: Donald Brown (vs San Diego) - The 2009 first round pick should dominate carries in week 12 as Joseph Addai (neck/shoulder) will be limited to non-contact drills this week – sign that he'll miss his 5th straight game. Mike Hart continues to battle an ankle injury and is also unlikely for week 12. Brown has yet to live up to his potential but showed flashes in week 11 as he rushed 17 times for 68 yards and added three catches for 40 yards against New England. With Austin Collie ruled out, Brown could become a viable option in the passing game making him a legit top 20 option despite a difficult matchup against San Diego's 3rd ranked run defense (87 yards/game).

Is there anyway to run Novell client on Debian?
Out of the few distro's I've tried I like debian the best. Mainly due to apt-get. I have used in the past SUSE 9 personal, and Mandrake.
My question is about Novell client. According to their site it requires SuSE. Is that the case? Do I have to make that switch? My office, where I am running linux (can't play games at work ) uses novell groupwise and client to connect to our network and to organize outbound work. Is it possible to get these on a debian based system?
Thank you for your responses and I look forward to learning more about Linux.

BlizzCon in the rearview {WoW}
Aug 29th 2009 5:31PM This was the first time I got to watch a Blizzcon via DirecTV as I am in Australia and can not afford the costs to travel to the US.
The highlights for me were the technical panels as they explained in surprising detail some of the aspects the developers had to grapple with when designing each game.
I had a lot of problems with the DirecTV feed with constant buffering and most of Day 1 and the first half of Day 2 I had to switch to a free HD feed via justin.tv. Hopefully the DirecTV guys can improve the streaming for next years Blizzcon. Multiple feeds would be nice as I really wanted to see The Guild panel discusion.
The DirecTV presenters were good (Geoff Keighley & Kat Hunter). The roving floor reporter was forgettable and instead of hiring a booth babe they should have brought someone in with some game knowledge and interview skills.
L80ETC was great. Ozzie was his usual self. I have never enjoyed his music anyway and it was at that point I shut down the live stream.
Funniest highlight of the show for me was watching the people asking panel questions. I will never forget the guy with the Intel badge plastered to his face, or the "Big Hair" guy that lined up and asked a question at every single panel. It made me realise there are some truly scary people out there in the nerd world. ;)

Ready Check: Death and Raid Guilds {WoW}
May 18th 2008 1:35AM No one is any more or less entitled to the content in WoW. We all pay the same amount of money to Blizzard and within the constraints of the game system are equally entitled to experience all of the content in the game.
Too many people in the game are far too focused on the end result rather than the journey getting there. Hence we have rampant guild hopping and people basically being ratbags to their fellow guildmates in the rush to get to the endgame.
To those that complain about having nothing to do because you have been farming T6 for the last four months suck it up. The rest of us don't care and aren't listening. There are lot's of other MMO's out there to keep you addicted.

Gear Review
Just ok.
Bought this hoody among others for my boyfriend. Hoody is ok, very thin. Not the quality I was expecting for this brand. I am slightly disappointed as it almost seems like a knockoff. If you're looking for a cheap hoody with a brand name logo, then I would recommend this. The green on the hoody is not very neon in color as it appears in the picture.

Re: Tip for fitting a handle to a socket chisel
The only trick I know is to fit the socket when its dry (you can even heat the socket a bit to really dry it out) making sure to leave the spaces above and below as shown in the drawing above.That way you can still knock it down tight during those extra dry months.
If the socket is fit well, it's designed to tighten every time you give it a smack. Epoxy would probably work, but you would never be able to remove the handle, say if you wanted to replace the leather washers, or swap it for a longer paring handle. Hope that helps!
Re: Shopmade Handles Make a Matched Set
Getting the socket just right is the most challenging part. A good trick I came up with is to press a piece of clay or plumbers putty into the socket. Slightly twist it as it's removed. Then you have an exact model to take measurements from with your calipers.
I'll take a few photos and post a separate blog on Monday. Hope that helps.
Re: Shopmade Handles Make a Matched Set
I agree, custom handles can be much more comfortable. I just wiped on a few coats of poly and a final coat of beeswax for the finish.
Re: Reclaimed Rocker - Part 3
Thanks, all. My wife and I are very excited! And now I have a whole six months to finish the second rocker!
Re: Antique Workbench Completion
Thanks so much for the kind words! If you'd like to post photos of your bench restoration project you can go to the link below and add them in the gallery. You'll need to make a "profile" if you don't have one, but then you can upload images there. Also, maybe post a comment in this blog so anyone interested in restoration projects can click over to the gallery and check it out. Thanks again!
Re: Antique Workbench Completion
To Woodnt,
You're right, it would be easier to deal with the dog holes as a separate strip - small pieces glued up or a template for a router works great. The cypress (not the country of cyprus of course, :-)) was soft enough for me to just go with chopping.
To WomenTurn2 and NoDeal,
I'd love to see photos of your workbench restoration projects. It's great to hear those old benches are going to be put back to work!
Re: Antique Workbench Completion
I checked with Fedex, and they said the roubo bench was over the weight limit, so we'll have to organize a lift gate truck. :-)
Seriously though it would be hard to give up the hybrid roubo. I've found it to be exactly what I want every time I use it. The new old bench was a little side project, mostly because I like antiques and I always wanted to try a wood screw vise. The smaller size of this bench (22in. wide by 6 feet long) will make it more manageable to bring down to our local agricultural fair where I do a small woodworking demo. And for the rest of the year it will be nice to have a second bench in the shop for glue-ups or assembly, that is if I can squeeze it in my shop!
Re: Hawaiian Steel Guitar Project-Part 1
Kevin, you're right. The stew-mac plans did lack some detail, but there are a bunch of great photos of original weissenborns on the web. Also, Tony Francis builds some beauties over in Australia and this blog that was a big help.
He also sells parts like original spec tuners and bridge pins, etc. - he's a great guy to deal with.
Re: Scrap Copper Makes a Great Door Pull
Hi Mark,
I used a piece of old copper roof flashing (about 1/16th in. thick) that already had the patina on it. Some of the patina wore off where it was hammered and bent but most stayed on. I bought copper rose-head boat nails and roves form Lee Valley in the past, and if you want, you can tap them square with a hammer. I think the rose-head will look great with the arts & crafts style.
Re: Curvy Cabinet: Bending Dovetails in Butternut
Hi garyprott,
I really like the butternut too, both in how it works and the color, but go ahead and give it a try with any wood you have. Just try to choose a carving-friendly wood. A harder wood won't matter so much for the outside corners and edges, but I think it will make a difference when carving the inside corners. Thanks!
Re: A Solid Cherry Beam Becomes a Cool Stool
If the groove was running vertically down the interior (facing the breakfast bar), I could incorporate a sliding dovetail running horizontally to hold the foot rest. Both grooves together would add an interesting design element. Great tip! Thanks,
Re: Portable mill sawing up a local Cherry tree
Thanks BetsyE - great information!
Re: Portable mill sawing up a local Cherry tree
Big Lou,
Really, I would ask around town. Local firewood sellers, landscapers, the guy who owns the hardware store - someone may know someone who has a mill. You can also search online, or maybe put an add in your local paper.
Re: Portable mill sawing up a local Cherry tree
Hi bobkidd,
I figured about 225-250 board feet of lumber between the 8 foot length section, the 6 foot section and the two 3 foot long blocks. There were a few other small pieces, plus I did cut up all the branches for my wood-fired grill.
The 36" diameter oak sounds like a beauty. I think the mill that cut the cherry log had a 26 or 28 inch capacity, so I would double check with the sawyer you find to see if his mill will handle the 36 inch diameter. I would guess you would get about 900 board feet.
Re: The Bamboo Blog - Part 2
Thanks stewdes,
It was a lot of fun to work with those materials.
Re: The Bamboo Blog - Part 1
I built my hybrid roubo bench a while back with no aprons and a nice thick top, so I could clamp all around the edges. A deep-reach clamp along an edge works just like a hold down. I was thinking I would use the bench for a while and then drill a round hole in the top if I want to use a hold-down in the future.
You could also give a custom made version a shot, and make something that suits the way you like to work. Hope that helps,
Re: Build a Hidden TV Enclosure
The windows are original to the house. I just painted the sashes and refinished the trim. I really like the color of that old yellow pine.
Making your own for your shop sounds like a great idea though. Custom made is always a nice touch.

Re: Recycled Chestnut Cabinetry Dresses up a Formal Fireplace
Beautiful piece Dan - love that old chestnut. And it looks fantastic next to the stone.
Re: Make a Bench from a Board
Thanks slowman,
I think the 3" thickness (my bench was only 2in.) with finger joints would be plenty strong. You could always add a stretcher like OuGrysie suggested if you're worried about the strength of the finger joints. The cyprus would be a great choice for an outdoor bench too, just make sure to use waterproof glue, and it should be around for a long time.
Re: Make a Bench from a Board
I'm leaving it outdoors until it turns gray, and then I'm thinking of bringing it inside to use on our front porch. I want it to have a weathered look and feel worn-in. I might carve out the seat a bit to add more comfort, but either way, I think it will be a nice place to sit in the morning with a cup of coffee. Thanks,
Re: Make a Bench from a Board
Hi OuGrysie,
I was wondering about a stretcher also, but after the dry assembly, I decided against it. I liked the clean look without the stretcher and I felt that the 2in. thick dovetails added an awful lot of long grain glue surface. It wouldn't hurt to have the added strength of the stretcher for sure, but I think it will last for years without it. Thanks,
Re: Make a Bench from a Board
Thanks Mike,
I'm letting the bench stay outside and weather a while in front of the rock wall in the photo. I thought the rounded edges would make it fit into it's "organic" setting a little more comfortably.
Re: A Simple Door Pull of Copper and Wood
Thanks for the kind words.
I'm not sure if the cabinet will be in a future FW issue - the sides are dovetailed to the top and bottom. The shelves and dividers sit in stopped dados, and the door is made with bridle joints with pegs. I'm making drawers for the dividers, one of which will be a removable salt box with a sliding lid. Thanks again,
Re: A Simple Door Pull of Copper and Wood
Hi APO,
The rivets I have are old belt rivets. From the box, (background in photo 2) they look to be from the 40's. The dimensions are 3/16 in. dia. at the point, 11/16 in. dia. at the head, by 1 in. long. I did a quick search online and you can get any size you want to try. (www.rivetsonline.com had a whole bunch of sizes, sold in one pound increments, for a reasonable price.)
Re: Ruobo style workbench
The reclaimed beech is a great choice - it looks fantastic, and I really like the lower shelf you added. Thanks for sharing the photos!
Re: Build a Hidden TV Enclosure
Thanks JEvans,
Your restoration project is looking great. I like how you kept the built-ins original, yet they open up to reveal all the modern amenities. Nice job.
Re: Build a Hidden TV Enclosure
I liked the Blum Aventos HK or HK-S lift systems that are used for overhead cabinet doors. I might have used them but I didn't have the depth I needed to install them in the wall recess. A little expensive but they offer a nice smooth motion.
I wouldn't give up on the wooden version though. I'd say give it a try. It only uses one small board worth of lumber and if you don't like how it turns out, you can chalk it up to experience either way!
Re: Furniture Lab: Tech Cabinet Part 2
Thanks Paul,
The scrub plane was a lot of fun to use. The texture is shallow enough to allow objects to sit flat on the shelf, but deep enough to have a great wavy feel to it. I should have the final construction photos up soon!
Re: Furniture Lab: Recycling Found Objects into Fine Furniture
I appreciate your honest concern. The few hazardous items are being dealt with on the towns hazardous waste days. I'd have to say, the process of combining creativity and imagination to turn salvaged materials into good usable furniture is extremely satisfying. I would classify the site as a "Super-Fun" site! ba-dum-cchh!
Re: Shop Tours with Fine Woodworking Staffers
Hi caryhson1,
I must say the new bench is an absolute joy. You can clamp any workpiece anywhere! To answer some of your questions:
1. You're right that there's no need for the end caps because of the extra thickness of the top.
2. I slightly elongated the holes at the back of the bench where the top attaches to allow for movement. From summer to winter, the difference was less than an eighth of an inch overhanging the back legs. The front stayed perfectly in line with the front of the legs.
My shop is not climate controlled either and I have not re-flattened the top yet. Take extra time at the glue-up stage to get it as close to flat as possible and after a little hand planing you'll be in good shape. Close to quarter-sawn wood helps, but I think the mass of the top helps to keep things more stable.
One of the features I've been enjoying the most, is the front leg that is in line with where the tail vise closes. It's great for supporting legs and long workpieces when you're working on the top end of the piece.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Re: The sad (and bloody) story of what happened when I made a saw
Great lessons Matt! Along with philosophy, woodworking and editing, I think you can add animation to your bag of tricks. Try a quick click on lower left, upper right, lower right.
Re: The 3 Hour Cabinet
I happen to have hemlock from a friend who cleared a few trees in his yard in MA. It's the first time I worked with it, but if I didn't know where it came from, I would have thought it was pine. It worked just the same. A pine 1" x 12" from any local store would be perfect for this project. Thanks!
Re: Shop Tours with Fine Woodworking Staffers
Hi George,
I agree that a small shop can work just fine. If it's well organized, it can be a very efficient way to work. I think woodworking in general brings out the creativity in people. That can be shown in furniture design, or just how you use the space you have to woodwork in. Woodworking is simply fun...a workbench in a hallway works too!
Re: Shop Tours with Fine Woodworking Staffers
Hi MacMarty,
Call me crazy but this is the same scenario as me having a wood stove in my living room...with floors made of wood, and furniture made of wood, and walls made of wood.
I plan on taking the same safety precautions in my shop as I do in my home. For the house, I checked with the local building inspector and installed the stove to specifications, including a stone base, 1 inch air space behind cement board with fieldstone face for the walls, and the proper setbacks from the walls and ceiling for the stove pipe. One added precaution in the shop is to keep the dust to a minimum, and I'll brush off the stove before use.
There are other ways to heat a shop for sure, but on that occasional Saturday morning when the snow's coming down, I'm comfortable firing up the wood stove. And what better way to use up those shop scraps!
Re: A Brand New Bench Video!
I went with metal vise screws, but the with the design of this bench, you can choose to install any hardware you like.
Re: Tiger Maple Post & Beam Desk
Thanks for the comment. I do tend to lean towards the "heavy" side when it comes to design. I think it may have started because I use a lot of recycled wood and usually want to see most of the patina, causing me to design around the rough dimensions I start out with. All these recent posts are pieces I built several years ago. Now that I'm at FW full time, I just build commissioned pieces here and there.
Re: Old Growth Pine Coffee Table
The arts and crafts style wasn't necessarily my intention, but I do like that style. I usually start with a quick sketch and change things as I build, designing around the specific wood for that project. Thanks for the comment.

It's no secret that windows are a liability when it comes to heat loss in homes. Conductance of quality insulated, low-e windows is typically 0.30-0.35 Btu/ft2hr°F, or about R-3. If installed in a wall that performs at R-20, heat lost through windows is 6-7 times higher (per unit area) than heat loss through the rest of the wall. Various window treatments have been used for years ... [continue reading]

" I think they made my P.I. character very believable, and they made the sleuthing scenes more realistic," says Beth Groundwater, an author who splits her time between Colorado Springs and Breckenridge. Groundwater's breakthrough book, A Real Basket Case, is about the owner of a gift-basket business whose husband is arrested for the murder of her hot young masseuse. She thinks her husband is innocent, and she enlists the help of a P.I. friend to prove it. "It was in fleshing out that character that I went to Colleen and Shaun's workshop to learn what P.I.s can and can't do," she says.
As the calls for help kept rolling in, Collins and Kaufman started a blog called "Guns, Gams and Gumshoes" on which they wrote about cases they'd investigated, explained how private eyes operate and included tips for fiction authors.
The blog evolved into the book, and How to Write a Dick: A Guide to Writing Fictional Sleuths From a Couple of Real Life Sleuths was released in July as an e-book, available on both Kindle and Nook. It's a classic how-to, written in a breezy tone with lots of anecdotes. There are chapters explaining what equipment private investigators use (digital cameras, recorders and binoculars, but rarely guns), whether P.I.s can tell white lies (sure) and what to wear on an undercover surveillance (something that blends in so you don't, in the words of fictional sleuth Philip Marlowe, stand out "like spats at an Iowa picnic.")
Having finished How to Write a Dick, Collins and Kaufman are already working on their next book, this time about how to do legal investigations for attorneys. The title? How to Be a Lawyer's Dick. And Collins just finished a detective novel based on Kaufman called The Zen Man. She is self-publishing the book, which comes out in October.
The jig was up. The day after their photo shoot with the louse, Collins called the wife's lawyer. We caught him, she said. In the act. At the couple's divorce trial, the guy argued that he'd been sitting back, way back, in his colleague's car to take a nap. Must have been having some sweet dreams. The judge didn't buy it.
The wife, who had thus far seemed unbreakable, had only one painful question when she called Collins. "What did she look like?" she asked.
Collins told her the truth. "You're much better-looking."
Case closed.
One of their book's most popular chapters is about "trash hits," the art of stealing someone's trash once it's been abandoned on the curb and then rummaging through it for clues. It's legal, it's icky, and it can be quite scandalous, depending on what's inside. In short, it makes for great fiction, and even better reality.
On a recent Thursday morning, the couple leaves their bungalow at 4:30 a.m., dressed in dark clothing. "It's going to be one of those Starbucks kind of days," Kaufman says, steering the Corolla north under a sky that isn't yet blue.
Today's target is a man whose ex-wife suspects he is making more money than his child-support payments suggest. She's also interested in whether her ex, a repairman, is using hazardous chemicals at home — especially while he's spending time with the children. Her attorney has hired Collins and Kaufman, who charge $90 to $125 an hour, to find out.
Twenty minutes later, they creep into a neat middle-class neighborhood full of ranch houses and turn a corner. At the target's house, there's a Jeep in the driveway but no trash at the curb. "I'm going to guess that he's a lazy bachelor and he puts his trash out at like 6:30, 7 a.m.," Kaufman says. They cruise by once more, get the Jeep's license plate number for good measure and decide to try again around 7 a.m.
This time, they're luckier. "Oooh, we've got a live one here," Kaufman says as they drive by a blue plastic trash can at the end of the man's driveway. The sun is shining and the neighborhood is waking up. Collins makes a U-turn and stops the car. "Okay," Kaufman says. "Let's hit it." He gets out of the car and walks nonchalantly up the street, pushing up the sleeves of his sweatshirt. When he reaches the trash can, he beckons for Collins to come forward. She drives, quickly but not too quickly, toward him. He stretches his arms over his head, looks around, flips up the trash can lid, yanks open the car door and chucks a full black trash bag into the back seat. It smells. Bad.
"You were great!" Collins gushes as they drive away.
Kaufman smiles. "This is some rank shit," he says, motioning to the bag.
Down the road, they turn in to a dog park. Kaufman slings the bag over his shoulder like Santa, and the two head toward the park's molded plastic trash cans. Wearing latex gloves, they dig in. "Is she curious what the kids are eating?" Collins asks. "There's a lot of junk in here." She finds a Chips Ahoy cookie sleeve, dozens of now-melted freeze pops, two cold slices of pepperoni pizza and wrappers from Taco Bell.

Trinity County Residential Solar Power
Many of the basic things that we use in the home are now being converted into more energy efficient, environmentally friendly alternatives that are great for conservation and for your budget. You will find that most of the energy efficient solutions cost less over the long-term than their traditional counterparts.

I am a baker at heart, I can and love to bake just about everything (cakes, petit fours, bread, crackers, cookies, creme brulee, etc etc etc)... unfortunately this is a dangerous hobby for someone who recently found out she was hypoglycemic :P
So now I'm trying cooking :D
I am also a big tea fan, green and rooibos especially! I can't get enough of teavana's teas!
It's probably easier to note what I don't like... pretty much, it's just fish and seafood.
As for what I am famous for... 32 (and growing) varieties of creme brulee which for a large gathering I do most of in little 1-2oz ramekins so the guests can eat several to try them out.
The most common recipes I get asked for: dark fudge brownies, Neiman Marcus cookie v2, tiger brownies, any number of creme brulee varieties, gluten-free breads (my mom is celiac) & butter-pecan tarts.
My favourite foods by category
Red meat: rack of lamb
Light meat: stuffed roasted turkey (thanksgiving is such a great holiday!)
Vegetable: sweet potato!

New York born Rapper Ja Rule has found himself on the wrong side of the law and now faces up to five years in prison for weapon procession and tax evasion charges. On tuesday the rapper plead guilty in a New Jersey Federal Court on two counts of tax evasion which each attracting a maximum one year sentence. Ja Rule born Jeffrey Atkins agreed to pay $1.1 million in back taxes and penalities, he is currently free on $500,000 bail and will have to be back in court on June 13 for sentencing. However a week before that he is scheduled to start serving a three year sentence for a weapons possession conviction from a 2007 arrest.
The tax evasion charges stemmed from the fact that Ja Rule failed to file tax returns from 2004 to 2008, even though the rapper has not had an album of new material since 2004, he got revenue from royalty and touring. All we can say is that we wish you the best of luck Ja Rule and we hope that the Judge will be lenient on June 13 when you return to court for sentencing.

Officers' Quarters: Trouble with a demoted raid leader {WoW}
Nov 21st 2011 1:58PM I have the same issue with my alt run that I raid lead on off nights, although this person has never been raid leader of my alt run he claims hes raid leaded before in other guilds and its a bad habit to stop, myself and the other people in my run have asked him many times to stop trying to lead but no matter what he still overrides me calling stuff out when I dont feel its nessisary to call stuff out etc. we're all 6 / 7 heroic on our mains and I dont feel like my guildies need thier hands held in an alt run thats there purely for fun. I've spoken to him several times that he just needs to keep vent quiet let me call out what i think needs to be called out and other wise enjoy the run, but he doesnt get the hint so im afraid my only option is to stop inviting him, its to the point that if i invite him i lose other people that wont come if hes there : /

It's been a busy few weeks for political sex scandals. First we found out that Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger fathered a love child—well, possibly two—more than 10 years ago without wife Maria Shriver's knowledge. And then came Weinergate, in which Democrat Anthony Weiner 'fessed up to sexting with six women, even sending one of them a picture of his … wiener.
This has us wondering—which political party has the worst sex scandals? After the jump, a highly scientific study*. Keep reading »

Here's a guest article by my friend Alison Soloman of Cheap Travel Made Easy. Part Two of this article will appear next week. To read all the articles on gay Mexico on this site, choose "Gay Mexico" from the Categories list on the right-hand sidebar. — Rosana
If you're regular readers of this blog, then you know that life for expats in Mexico can be happy, frustrating, energizing, exhausting, relaxing, busy – in other words, whatever you make it. But have you wondered what it's like if you're gay or lesbian? Have you had a concern that since this is a country where the vast majority of folks are practicing Catholics, you might not be welcomed?
If so, it's time to put your worries to rest. The Mexican laissez-faire attitude of live and let-live certainly applies to this issue as well. My partner and I moved to Mexico three years ago. In this article we'll tell you about gay life in general and in the next article, we'll introduce you to some of our friends.
Have you assumed that gays and lesbians would probably keep a low profile here? If so, think again! Although this article will focus on the two biggest cities – Guadalajara and Mexico City, even in small villages it's easy to spot out gays and lesbians. While I can't vouch for what their parents think, I can say that they clearly don't feel the need to hide themselves. Where we live there is a large expat community and within that community there are a considerable number of gay and lesbian couples. We don't have any venues just for us – bars, nightclubs, etc – but that's because we don't need them. If we want to dance together, we do. If we want to walk arm-in-arm we do. And if we really have the urge to be just with our own, we can hop in the car and drive 40 minutes to Guadalajara where there are gay bars galore. Indeed some consider Guadalajara to be the "San Francisco" of Mexico for gays. And certainly if you walk through Costco or Soriana (the local supermarket) on a weekend alongside straight families doing their weekly shopping, you'll see numerous obviously gay couples doing theirs too.
The annual gay pride event in Guadalajara draws thousands of participants with its gaudy, over-the-top, display of dressed-up, made-up, leathered-up, hip-gyrating gorgeous men. What you won't see are some of the most popular groups from north of the border – no dykes-on-bikes, lesbian moms or PFLAG (parents and friends of lesbians and gays.) This isn't a political statement, it's a celebration for the boys to be girls, and like so many other Mexican fiestas it's loud, colorful and exuberant.
In Mexico City, gays and lesbians have even more of a presence. Go to the Zona Rosa quarter and you'll think you're in West Hollywood or Key West. Along with Starbucks and McDonalds are dozens of storefronts festooned with rainbow flags, shops selling everything from sex toys to gay magazines and restaurants for looking, cruising and more. These venues aren't inexpensive, and as with so much of gay culture, there's a far stronger male presence than female. There's also a fair amount of gay life in the Condessa and Roma neighborhoods. But check out http://www.machamexico.com, for a vibrant blog about the lesbian scene in Mexico city.

We are Macmillan. Cancer Support
Find out how we produce our information|
The treatment for CIN partly depends on its grade|.
Often, cells showing CIN 1 will return to normal without any treatment at all. If your colposcopist decides not to treat these minor changes, they'll arrange for you to have further screening tests|. This is to make sure that any further changes that may occur are quickly recognised.
Most doctors and researchers agree that CIN 2 and 3 should be treated. The aim of treatment is to remove the abnormal area, while causing as little damage as possible to surrounding healthy tissue. It's also possible to destroy the abnormal cells, rather than remove them, although this isn't commonly done.
Ways of removing the abnormal area include:
Ways of destroying the cells in the abnormal area so that normal cells can grow back in their place include:
These procedures are all explained below. Currently, LLETZ is the most commonly used method of treatment.
Most women only need one of the treatments described here. All of the treatments are usually very effective at removing the abnormal cells. The type of treatment you have will depend on a number of factors. These will include the facilities available at your local hospital, and the type of treatment that your doctor thinks is best for you.
It may be possible for the treatment to be done at the same time as your initial colposcopy| appointment, or you may have to come back at a later date.
LLETZ, laser therapy, cryotherapy, cold coagulation and sometimes cone biopsies are carried out in a hospital outpatient clinic using a local anaesthetic. This means that you can go home after treatment. It can be helpful for someone to either come with you while you're having the treatment or pick you up afterwards.
Before your treatment, the nurse will help you lie comfortably on the couch. The colposcopist will then use a speculum so that they can see your cervix.
Try to relax as much as possible and don't be afraid to ask the colposcopist any questions about your treatment. The treatment itself is likely to take around 5-10 minutes and although it may be uncomfortable, it isn't painful.
Once you're in a comfortable position, the colposcopist will put some local anaesthetic into your cervix to numb it. They'll then use the colposcope to see a magnified image of your cervix and, with a thin wire loop, remove the abnormal tissue. The loop is heated with an electric current, which cuts and seals the tissue at the same time. This shouldn't cause any pain although you may feel some pressure inside your cervix.
The tissue will be sent off to a laboratory to be checked and to confirm the type of abnormal cell changes. Depending on the result, your colposcopist will decide whether you need to be followed up either at the colposcopy clinic or with your GP.
LLETZ is not usually painful, but you may experience a period-like pain or a burning sensation. After the treatment you may have some light bleeding or discharge, which can last for around four weeks. Your doctor or nurse will give you more information about what to expect after your treatment. LLETZ will not affect your ability to enjoy sex once your cervix has healed. But you should avoid sex, swimming, tampons and baths until the cervix has healed and any bleeding has stopped. Your colposcopist will give you more information about this.
This is another treatment for CIN that involves removing abnormal tissue from the cervix.
A cone biopsy is usually carried out under a general anaesthetic, but sometimes a local anaesthetic may be given. The doctor uses a scalpel to take a small, cone-shaped piece of tissue from the cervix, which will be examined under a microscope. Afterwards, a small pack of gauze (like a tampon) may be put into the vagina to prevent bleeding.
This is usually removed within 24 hours before you go home. Some women may also have a tube (catheter) put into the bladder to drain urine while the gauze pack is in place.
Area removed during a cone biopsy
View a large version of the image of the area removed during a cone biopsy|
It's normal to have some light bleeding and discharge for around four weeks. You should avoid any sex and strenuous exercise for at least four weeks to allow the cervix to heal properly.
Neither LLETZ or a cone biopsy will affect your ability to enjoy sex once your cervix has healed.
Very rarely, the cervix can become tightly closed after treatment. This is known as stenosis. It can make it harder for the sperm to enter the womb and so can affect your chances of becoming pregnant naturally (your fertility|). Your cervix is not completely closed if you're still bleeding during your periods.
Sometimes treatment can make the cervix slightly weaker. This is unlikely with a single treatment, but if you need more than one treatment the cervix may weaken. Very rarely, this may mean that towards the end of a pregnancy when the baby is bigger, the weakened cervix may start to open early causing a premature birth. To stop this happening, a stitch may occasionally be put into the remaining part of the cervix during pregnancy. The stitch is removed before you go into labour. Your doctor will discuss this with you in more detail if you're concerned about future pregnancies.
Under local anaesthetic, a laser beam is directed at the abnormal areas of your cervix and the cells are destroyed. During the treatment you may notice a slight burning smell from the laser. This is normal.
This is a misleading name as the abnormal cells are removed by heating, not cooling. Firstly, a local anaesthetic is given to numb your cervix, then a hot probe is placed onto its surface.
You'll be given a local anaesthetic, and a probe will be put in your cervix to freeze the abnormal cells. Cryotherapy has a slightly lower success rate than the other treatments for CIN, and so it's not often used.
These types of surgical treatment are rarely needed for CIN.
A hysterectomy| is an operation to remove the womb and cervix. It's sometimes done for persistent or severe CIN if women have other gynaecological problems and are past childbearing age, or don't want to have more children. Your doctor may discuss with you whether to remove your ovaries during the surgery. For women who've not yet had the menopause, removing the ovaries will bring on an early menopause.
Instead of having a hysterectomy, it's sometimes possible to have an operation where the cervix is removed and the womb is left in place. This type of operation is known as a trachelectomy. Because the womb is left in place, it's still possible to become pregnant after this operation. A trachelectomy is mainly carried out in younger women who still want to have children. Your doctor will be able to give you more information about whether this type of surgery is suitable for you.
Unless you've had a hysterectomy, trachelectomy, or possibly an LLETZ or cone biopsy under a general anaesthetic, you'll be able to go home on the day that you're treated.
Most women feel fine after treatment to the cervix, which involves a local anaesthetic, but some women feel slightly unwell for a few hours. It's a good idea to have the day off work, in case you need to go home and rest. Many women find it helps to bring a relative or friend to support them and drive them home.
If your treatment was done under local anaesthetic, you may have some period-like pains for the rest of the day once the anaesthetic has worn off. You should expect to have some bleeding or discharge after these treatments. This usually stops within four weeks but may last up to six weeks. The bleeding shouldn't be heavier than a moderate period and should get steadily lighter.
You should contact your GP or the clinic where you had your treatment if:
Your doctor or nurse will probably advise you not to have sex for at least four weeks after your treatment to allow the cervix to heal properly. You may also be advised not to use tampons for four weeks. You should feel completely back to normal within about six weeks.
Research has shown that treatments for CIN are usually very successful. Although most women will have no further problems and the CIN will not come back, all women still need to continue with regular cervical screening tests.
If your colposcopy shows you have CIN 1 and your colposcopist decides not to treat these minor changes, you'll usually have a repeat screening| test after six months. This is to make sure that more cell changes don't take place.
You'll be invited to have a follow-up screening test six months after your treatment. This is to make sure that the treatment has been successful and that the abnormal cells haven't come back.
If your follow-up screening test shows that abnormal cells have come back, and you have moderate or severe cell changes, you'll be referred for another colposcopy|.
If your follow-up screening test shows that you have normal, borderline or mild cell changes, what happens next depends on whether HPV| testing is carried out in the area where you live:
For most women, treatment for CIN is very successful. However, for some women, the abnormal cells can come back. If this happens, you'll be invited for another colposcopy and further treatment if necessary.
Very occasionally, if the abnormal cells continue to come back after treatment, some women are advised to have a hysterectomy or trachelectomy (see above) to prevent them from developing cancer of the cervix|. Your doctor will discuss the most suitable treatment options with you.
Even if you've had a hysterectomy or trachelectomy, you'll still need to have regular check-ups using liquid-based cytology|. The sample of cells will be taken from the top of the vagina. This is sometimes called a vaginal vault smear. Your GP or gynaecologist can organise this for you, as vault smears aren't done as part of the NHS Cervical Screening Programme|.

Here in the PNW we can't grow Lima beans or many of the long season common beans apart from growing them in a greenhouse. But we can more or less reliably keep ourselves supplied with pole snaps all of August through the end of October. Earlier if we grow bush snaps or start Emerite in pots. Perhaps it is my Appalachian ancestry, but I consider full beans - beans that are eaten when the seeds are mature - to be superior to ordinary green beans. So the goal is to have full beans available every day for as much of the season as possible. Here is what I did for snap bean succession this year. They were all planted about June 1. Emerite and Fortex were enjoyed until the Aunt Jean's kicked in. Emerite |
Follow-Up Postings:
Aunt Jean's held up under our unusual September torrential rains while Tobacco Worm plants died. For those with moderate temperature summers but limited space who want to try full beans, Aunt Jean's could be planted in peat pots for an early crop that will last most of the summer and direct seed some more in late June for a fall crop. |

In "Faith like a River," a Tapestry of Faith program
Reflect on a time when you learned something new about the history of your congregation, or about Unitarian Universalism, that shifted your sense of identity as a Unitarian Universalist.
What feelings were associated with the shift? If you heard a story of achievement and courage, did you feel unexpectedly proud? If you heard a story about a time when our forebears fell short of Unitarian Universalist ideals, you may have felt chagrined or sad. Perhaps, if you learned a story of a wrestling to find the right thing to do in the face of difficult choices, you might have felt a connection to the struggles of others. Recall the circumstances of your new learning and the feeling you had in response.
You may wish to ask participants to engage in this same spiritual practice so that they, too, arrive at the workshop centered and ready to engage with the material and the group.

"Wondering what is coal ash? Interested in what is being done about the threat coal ash poses to our drinking water supplies?RSVP to our online chat today!
Coal ash is the leftover waste from coal-fired power plants. Over 129 million tons are created each year, enough for coal ash to flow over Niagara Falls for three days straight! Coal ash contains arsenic, mercury, chromium and a slurry of other highly toxic pollutants. It is often dumped into huge ponds or unlined landfills and there are nearly 600 of these sites located in 35 states. But despite the obvious threat to public health and the environment, the Environmental Protection Agency has not set strong rules for the disposal of coal ash and ensure this health threat stays out of our drinking water supplies.
To find out what Earthjustice is doing about this problem, join Earthjustice Campaign Director Jared Saylor in an online chat and he'll answer your questions.
My comment;
Coal is one of our cheap forms of energy, making up a huge portion of electricity generation.
When you turn on your lights, chances are, coal is making it happen, unless you CHOOSE
to sign up for GREEN, pollution free power. Every person using power is generating this waste,
both in the air, in the water, oceans, rivers and lakes, as well as soil. Coal toxins including
mercury poison all life on the planet, making it more acid and poisonous day by day...
We are slowly strangling all life on the planet in order to keep power on in our homes and factories.
That is a fact... Now, what is each of us WILLING to do to change this fact?

I live in the northern part of San Diego, Ca. and have just started an attempt to grow mangoes from nursery plant/seed and papayas from purchased seeds.
I was planning to grow some of both in 1/2 whiskey barrel sized planters and others in a sunny, but sheltered section of my backyard. I'd appreciate any advice and any tales of success or failure. Thanks,

Jeff, I live in the same general area of the country as you (Vista, N. San Diego county, CA), and we can grow both mangos and papayas quite well here, along with several other tropicals/semi-tropicals like asian guavas, pineapple guavas (feijoas), sapotes, cherimoyas, dragonfruits, and bananas to name just a few. I am growing a Solo papaya because I happen to prefer their taste over some of the other varieties, but there are many good papaya choices as well. And same with mangos. Some mangos will grow true to seed, others will not, so depends what mango variety seeds you've planted. You're probably better off posting this over on the Tropical Fruits forum on Garden Web, and another really great, great forum, the Tropical Fruits Forum, for tropical fruits (see the link below. Many San Diego folks on this forum. Mangos may be a bit of a challenge in a container, unless they are naturally smaller or dwarf, as they are trees with pretty deep tap roots. Mine are in the ground and doing well. Lastly, I'd recommend joining the local chapter of the California Rare Fruit Growers, as they are a great group with some real experts amongst their ranks. There is a San Diego chapter as well as a N. San Diego chapter. Great, great group of folks. Patty S. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Tropical Fruit Forum
Thanks for the info and the link. I've got my avocados and mangoes in containers because I'm still not sure where to plant them. I think I have a spot for the papayas, but they'll be in pots for a bit also. My backyard faces south and half of it is a 45 deg. slope that is always windy. |
