Week 17, while the most worthless week of fantasy, is still set to decide some fantasy championships -- for better or worse. It is made more difficult by the amount of players shut down for the season or potentially resting for the NFL postseason.With 10 of the 12 playoff spots already sewn up, there are more teams playing out the string than actually playing for something this week. Only two divisions (NFC East and West) and one wild-card (NFC No. 6 seed) remain in play and those teams that lose out there can still make it as wild cards. BURKE: Actives/inactives for Week 17We present the most in-depth Cheat Sheet of the season on SI.com with just about all the permutations possible and even chip in a bonus top-10 strategies for those weekly salary-cap games you might be playing in this week and through the NFL postseason: 1. Games with both teams playing for the postseason.There are some games with both teams playing for huge stakes. Here are the games you should feel confident will be played until the final whistle on both sides: Dallas Cowboys at Washington Redskins: Regardless of whether the Redskins clinch at least a wild card before the Sunday night game -- they can if the Vikings lose at home to the Packers and the Bears lose at Detroit -- they will be playing for home-field advantage in the wild-card round as NFC East champs. Dallas must win to get in, while the Redskins will want that home game. This makes the following players must-starts in the season's final game and a great way to keep your championship hopes alive to the final fantasy whistle as well: Cowboys: Tony Romo, DeMarco Murray, Dez Bryant, Miles Austin and Jason Witten. Sleeper: K Dan Bailey. Redskins: Robert Griffin III, Alfred Morris and Pierre Garcon. Sleeper: K Kai Forbath. Green Bay Packers at Minnesota Vikings: This will be the most-watched 1 p.m. game, because of Adrian Peterson's bid for the single-season rushing record, but the Vikings are fighting for the last remaining wild-card spot, while the Packers are playing for a first-round bye, too. Both can still make it with losses and help, but that help won't come until late in the day. Both are certain to be fighting until the end to leave nothing to chance. There are more sleepers than sure things here, so if you're looking for stopgap help, this is a good place to look. Sure-thing, must-starts: Aaron Rodgers and Adrian Peterson. Solid starts: James Jones, Jermichael Finley and Packers D/ST (Packers); Kyle Rudolph and Blair Walsh (Vikings) Stopgap options: Greg Jennings, Jordy Nelson and Mason Crosby. Question marks to avoid: Alex Green, Ryan Grant and Randall Cobb (ankle) (Packers); Christian Ponder, Jarius Wright and Vikings D/ST (Vikings) 2. Games with a playoff team versus one salvaging its pride.These games below are good places to look for fantasy starts because one team is playing for its life, while the other has a significant reason (or two) to not fold completely on the other side. Chicago Bears at Detroit Lions: The Bears need a victory and a Vikings loss against the Packers, while the Lions coaching staff has their jobs on the line as much as Calvin Johnson's bid to be the first 2,000-yard receiver, so this one be played like there's no tomorrow. Sure-thing, must-starts: Matt Forte (ankle), Brandon Marshall and Bears D/ST (Bears); Calvin Johnson (Lions) Viable starts: Jay Cutler and Olindo Mare (Bears); Matthew Stafford, Mikel LeShoure, Tony Scheffler and Jason Hanson (Lions) Question marks to avoid: Joique Bell, Kris Durham, Brandon Pettigrew and Lions D/ST. Desperation/darkhorse sleeper: Alshon Jeffery. Houston Texans at Indianapolis Colts: The Texans are playing for home-field advantage, or a first-round bye, and can get it with a loss, but they won't know that until after their game. They're sure to play this one full-go. On the other side, the Colts are playing for the return of cancer-surviving coach Chuck Pagano, even if their No. 5 seed is locked up. This is the Colts' Super Bowl and they vowed to play it all the way through. We should believe they will. Sure-thing, must-starts: Arian Foster, Andre Johnson and Reggie Wayne. Viable starts: Matt Schaub, Owen Daniels, Shayne Graham and Texans D/ST (Texans); Andrew Luck, T.Y. Hilton, Dwayne Allen and Adam Vinatieri (Colts) Risks best not taken: Justin Forsett, Kevin Walter, Keyshawn Martin and Lestar Jean (Texans); Vick Ballard, Delone Carter, Donnie Avery, Coby Fleener and Colts D/ST (Colts) Desperation/darkhorse sleeper: Ben Tate. Philadelphia Eagles at New York Giants: The Giants need a victory, along with losses by the Bears, Vikings and Cowboys. It is not impossible at the time of their 1 p.m. game, so expect them to play hard as they play out the string. They are difficult to trust, though, as they have struggled for fantasy owners for weeks. As for the Eagles, the coaching staff is a lame duck, but Michael Vick and the staff are fighting for their careers. They should give a good effort to end a season full of terrible ones. You should expect good efforts from: Michael Vick, LeSean McCoy, Jeremy Maclin and Alex Henery (Eagles); Victor Cruz and Lawrence Tynes (Giants) You should be wary of: Bryce Brown, Riley Cooper, Jason Avant, Brent Celek and Eagles D/ST (Eagles); Eli Manning, Ahmad Bradshaw, David Wilson, Hakeem Nicks, Martellus Bennett and Giants D/ST (Giants) 3. Games where one playoff-bound team will dominate to secure a better seed.There are four games where a playoff team is playing a team with nothing to gain except higher draft position. Expect blowouts here and potentially load on the players on the right side of these results. Miami Dolphins at New England Patriots: The Pats will already host a playoff game, but they can win and go up to the No. 2 seed (with a Texans or Broncos loss) or the No. 1 seed (with a Texans and Broncos loss). It is reason enough to expect Bill Belchick to keep the foot on the gas pedal against a division rival that somehow plays them tough. It will be very un-Miami-like weather, though, for the Dolphins. It is forecasted to be windy, in addition to snowy (potentially) and cold. Must-starts: Tom Brady, Wes Welker, Aaron Hernandez and Stephen Gostkowski. Viable starts: Stevan Ridley, Reggie Bush and Patriots D/ST. Risks best avoided: Danny Woodhead, Shane Vereen, Brandon Bolden, Brandon Lloyd and Rob Gronkowski (Patriots); Ryan Tannehill, Lamar Miller, Brian Hartline, Marlon Moore, Armon Binns, Anthony Fasano, Dan Carpenter and Dolphins D/ST (Dolphins) Arizona Cardinals at San Francisco 49ers: The Cardinals coaching staff faces the axe, while the 49ers need a victory or Seattle loss to the Rams (doubtful) to win the NFC West. Expect a great effort here out of the 49ers, at least. Must-starts: Frank Gore and 49ers D/ST. Solid starts: Colin Kaepernick and Michael Crabtree. Sleepers: Randy Moss, Delanie Walker and David Akers. Sits: Vernon Davis (concussion), Beanie Wells, Larry Fitzgerald, Andre Roberts, Michael Floyd and Cardinals D/ST. St. Louis Rams at Seattle Seahawks: The Seahawks have the No. 5 seed locked up, but they can rise all the way to No. 2 and a first-round bye. They need a victory and a 49ers loss to win a home playoff game (imagine how important that is for Seattle with its 12th man). If they win the division and the Packers loss, the Seahawks might even get a bye and a second-round home game. That's ostensibly a berth in the NFC Championship game, potentially at home. Expect the Seahawks best against a Rams team that has played tough all season. It's not a Jeff Fisher team's DNA to fold. Must-starts: Russell Wilson, Marshawn Lynch and Seahawks D/ST. Viable starts, as needed: Steven Jackson, Sidney Rice, Golden Tate and Steven Hauschka. Risks best not taken: Robert Turbin, Zach Miller, Sam Bradford, Danny Amendola, Brandon Gibson, Chris Givens, Lance Kendricks, Greg Zuerlein and Rams D/ST. Kansas City Chiefs at Denver Broncos: Not only is Denver one of the toughest places to play, but the Broncos will need a victory to clinch a first-round bye because there is very little chance the Dolphins beat the Pats in their 1 p.m. game. This one should get out of hand. You will want to have your Broncos active for this tail-kicking. Must-starts: Peyton Manning, Demaryius Thomas, Eric Decker, Matt Prater and Broncos D/ST. Viable starts: Knowshon Moreno and Jamaal Charles. Risks best avoided: Ronnie Hillman, Brandon Stokley and Joel Dreessen. Guys you shouldn't even wish on your opponent's lineup: Brady Quinn, Peyton Hillis, Jon Baldwin, Dexter McCluster, Jacob Tamme, Ryan Succop and Chiefs D/ST. 4. Games where one playoff team has nothing at stake.The next two are games where it actually benefits a playoff-bound team to do nothing but rest their stars. These are the dangerous games that represent the reason(s) your league made a mistake deciding its champion in Week 17. There are some great players here that might play very little, if at all. We try to guide you on whether to trust the stars here, or ride some backups. Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Atlanta Falcons: Doug Martin will be polishing off his Rookie of the Year resume, even if it's a losing battle against the rookie QBs (RGIII, Wilson and Luck), while the Falcons will be deciding whether to keep their offensive continuity or preserve their health as they head into their postseason bye as the clinched No. 1 seed. The fact(s) this game is being played in front of the home fans, against the worst pass defense in the NFL and the Falcons will already have the wild-card weekend to rest, help slightly in trusting some of your elite Falcons. For instance, we expect Matt Ryan to play at least a half with his primary targets and post around 180 yards and two TDs. Those are good enough numbers for many fantasy owners to keep him and his leading receivers active. The Falcons vowed to plan to play this game to win, and they should get it in the bag early before calling off the dogs. Must-starts: Doug Martin and Matt Byrant. Start if you don't have great alternatives: Matt Ryan, Julio Jones, Roddy White, Vincent Jackson, Tony Gonzalez, Connor Barth and Falcons D/ST. Consider only if you are desperate or expect the starters to play very little: Josh Freeman, Jacquizz Rodgers, Mike Williams, Harry Douglas and Dallas Clark. Avoid: Luke McCown and Michael Turner. 5. A game where two playoff teams have nothing to play for.There is actually a game to be more worried about in fantasy than that Bucs-Falcons matchup. At least the Falcons are playing for continuity heading into the bye. The Falcons game is akin to a dress rehearsal like a preseason Week 3 game. This one is akin to a preseason Week 4 where the starters might play just a series, if they don't sit entirely. Baltimore Ravens at Cincinnati Bengals: The Ravens are already certain to host the Colts next week, while the Bengals are certain to be going on the road to New England, Denver or Houston -- three awful places to play. The Ravens and Bengals have far too many reasons to sit everyone and let the backups get some work just in case they're needed in the postseason. They need this rest more than any other teams in the NFL. Starters too elite to sit: Ray Rice and A.J. Green. Viable fantasy plays who won't be rested for next week: Justin Tucker and Ravens D/ST (Ravens); Josh Brown and Bengals D/ST (Bengals) Sit these guys if you have viable alternatives: Joe Flacco, Torrey Smith, Anquan Boldin, Jacoby Jones, Dennis Pitta and Ed Dickson (Ravens); Andy Dalton, BenJarvus Green-Ellis, Cedric Peerman, Brian Leonard and Jermaine Gresham (Bengals) Desperation/darkhorse sleepers if you're expecting the reserves to take over: Bernard Pierce (Ravens); Andrew Hawkins and Marvin Jones (Bengals) 6-15. Some insider guidance on those weekly salary-cap games.Fantasy isn't turning away from the classic league-based format, but those weekly/daily salary-cap games are gaining steam and will be about the only way to play fantasy through the NFL postseason. Websites like FanDuel.com, DraftDay.com, DailyJoust.com, DraftKings.com and 365fantasysports.com are great places to keep fantasy football alive in January and Week 17, if your league has a brain and doesn't decide its champion when NFL teams are mailing in their season.We picked the brains of some of DraftDay.com's top money winners and cobbled together some advice on how to determine your weekly lineups. Here are the top 10 highlights from their strategies, some of which you can use (loosely) to help your set your traditional fantasy game lineups, too, perhaps: 1. Pay attention to the oddsmakers. Arguably the best advice gleamed from the professional fantasy players we surveyed was that of DraftDay.com's $100,000 fantasy championship winner John Lowery. He gave us this pearl of wisdom this fantasy writer has long kept in the back of his mind but might turn to a partial focus of 2013's weekly analysis: "I look at NFL odds to get a feel for high-scoring games or perhaps risky plays due to blowouts," Lowery says.Brilliant.If you use that advice this week, look to the Panthers at Saints game with the highest over-under number set around 54 points. There are some obvious players to love in Drew Brees, Cam Newton, Marques Colston, Steve Smith, Jimmy Graham and the kickers. You might also consider the running backs like Darren Sproles, Mark Ingram (especially with Pierre Thomas out) and DeAngelo Williams (especially with Jonathan Stewart out).The next highest numbers come from the following fantasy gems of games: Dallas-Washington (49) and Houston-Indianapolis (46.5). On the contrary, the bad games to consider fantasy starts from are these expected low-scoring tilts: Cleveland-Pittsburgh (off the board due to Cleveland's QB uncertainty), New York (Jets)-Buffalo (39), Oakland-San Diego (39), Arizona-San Francisco (39).As for the blowout games, they were all matchups we previously warned about: Kansas City-Denver (-16.5), Arizona-San Francisco (-15.5), St. Louis-Seattle (-10), Miami-New England (-10) and Cleveland-Pittsburgh (-10). 2. QB or not QB, that is the question. We already lead with this in the Week 16 Fantasy Football Fast Forward, but we reiterate that the high-scoring QB position should be where you start your fantasy team. It is here where you score the most points, even if RBs might have traditionally generated the most of our fantasy attention. One of DraftDay.com's top money winners Keith Beaulieu explains: "I like to take a solid to premier QB. The lower tier QB's salary lets you build a strong team around them, but I feel like it's a losing method. I'd rather take a QB I consider to be in the top 5 and build around that." 3. Gather the wisdom of the crowd. Fantasy analysts don't want you in on this secret, but you're best served by weighing the advice of several different sources. Our fantasy pros respondents almost universally agreed it is wise to compare projections, news and injury information from multiple sources.Kevin Kelly of Irvington, N.Y., starts with this one in his successful salary-cap strategy. He said he gathers the projections from multiple sources and then compares them to the weekly salaries determined by the host site (his being DraftDay.com).Fantasy calls the multiple-source strategy the wisdom of the crowd. Believe it or not, the masses of fantasy users get us closest to reality than any one fantasy analyst over the long haul. For this reason, average draft positions, ownership percentages and starting percentages generally guide much of this fantasy analyst's weekly advice. 4. Make an algorithm to determine undervalued players.OK, most of the fantasy public has no idea what an algorithm is, much less how to make or use one. It is basically just formulating an objective way (something without personal bias) to compare players on a weekly basis.This is how one Cory Albertson puts around $10,000 in play on DraftDay.com on a weekly basis and doesn't lose his house. It also shouldn't surprise you that he is one of that website's top money winners."I use an algorithm I created to determine which players I deem favorable relative to the salary price at DraftDay," he says. "Then, due to the variance of any one week of fantasy, I enter 50-100 unique lineups, built around the players I like, into as many contests as I can find. It takes about 4-6 hours but makes for a fun Sunday and Monday night."(You thought your fantasy play was an addiction? Explain Albertson's psychoneurosis to your significant other. He or she won't think you're so bad off.) 5. Focus on players with the best opportunities. Finding inefficiency in the fantasy marketplace (to borrow a fantasy baseball phrase made popular by Moneyball) can be done in three ways: Touches, injuries and matchups. "Injuries play a big factor," Beaulieu says. "Anytime a starter goes down an opportunity arises for his backup to shine."It's not just analyzing the status of the injured guy, but you must look at the opportunity he potentially gives to someone else, too.Touches, injuries and matchups represent a three-pronged strategy where most fantasy analysts focus their efforts, but it still has to be mentioned here. The players who get the most touches, gain touches due to injuries to starters and have favorable matchups obviously make for the best plays."I look at defensive rankings versus run and pass to try to pick on certain teams and their weakness with their opponents," Lowery says. 6. Set many different lineups to protect yourself against players potentially going bust.Here is a strategy you cannot necessarily employ in traditional fantasy games, save for getting into as many yearly fantasy leagues as possible. "I have learned the importance of protecting yourself from the variance of fantasy sports by putting together different combinations of the players you like, since there will inevitably be some who underperform and ruin your lineup," Albertson says in his weekly games.Even with a lot of good advice and strategies, the best-laid plans can go bust in fantasy any given week or season. The more games you can play with good, sound decisions and strategy, the more likely you are to come out ahead. 7. Play in games that reward solid, but not necessarily great scores.This one is a bit of abstract idea, but Kelly says his bread-and-butter in DraftDay.com games are those that pay out winners to half of the field."I aim to choose players for 50/50 games that perform consistently (i.e. low variance) and provide good value," he says. "I do this because you don't need to hit the home run in these games, since all you have to do is score higher than half of the players in the game."For that reason, you should lobby your commissioner to change your yearly league's pool payouts to guarantee a playoff team their money back at least. Sure, it means the champion isn't going break the bank, but your fantasy championship rarely winds up being the year-long strongest fantasy team. The one that wins the championship is more likely merely the one got the luckiest at the end.Spreading the wealth to the strongest half of your league (say the top six in a standard 12-team format) is the most fair and the best way to guarantee a solid fantasy player a piece of the pie. 8. Throw your hat into some large-field games and hope to get lucky.Lowery won the Week 15 $100,000 Championship at DraftDay.com, while Kelly also likes to hit on large-field games for the promise of a big prize. There are no guarantees when you play against a lot of players, because someone is bound to be luckier than the most-skilled players, but more players contributing to the pool means more money and, potentially, more bad money.You can play the large-field games on the daily sites, or petition to expand your yearly league to 14-, 16- or even 18-team format. The more guys you play against, the more likely you are to capitalize on bad players. 9. Watch, and record, the games and take copious notes.This one is fairly obvious, if you have the time. The more you watch, listen and read, the more knowledgeable you are going to be about all aspects of the fantasy game and the NFL teams."This is the best way to prepare for the next week in my opinion," Lowery says. "I make notes of some of what I see and add that to next week's study sheets."If you can't take the time to do this yourself, just trust yours truly will do it every week for you (smiley face). 10. Kickers are least important.All veteran fantasy-leaguers know this, but it needs to be re-emphasized for the salary-cap game neophytes, even if they're veterans of the fantasy game. Many tend to buy a pricier kicker for the presumed certainty he provides, but, as we learned above, there are no sure things in fantasy. The cheapest kicker has just as much potential in any given week as the highest-priced one.Beaulieu works backward when setting his lineup."It's the one position where their production is more dependent on game situations than their actual performance," he says. "For this reason, I generally start with the cheapest kicker, once the rest of my lineup is set, I use what is leftover to upgrade my kicker but never worry too much about that slot."This kind of advice would have been useful months ago, but you can also clip and save it for 2013 use. In the meantime, good luck in the final week of the NFL regular season. Eric Mack writes fantasy for SI.com.

College Professor Jim Read Announces He's Running for Michele Bachmann's Congressional Seat
ST. CLOUD, Minn. (AP) - Another Democrat has entered the race to succeed retiring U.S. Representative Michele Bachmann in Minnesota's 6th Congressional District.
College professor Jim Read of Avon announced his candidacy Tuesday. Read is a political science professor at College of St. Benedict and St. John's University. He ran for a state House seat in 1992 and lost narrowly.
Read tells the St. Cloud Times that the federal government shutdown inspired him to run. He blames the tea party faction in the U.S. House for the shutdown.
Former state Representatives Phil Krinkie and Tom Emmer, Anoka County Commissioner Rhonda Sivarajah and state Senator John Pederson are among Republicans running for the seat.
On the Democratic side, Circle Pines activist Judy Adams says she's running, and Sartell Mayor Joe Perske says he's likely to run.

Janzen Kooistra, Lorraine 1953-Overview
Publication Timeline
Most widely held works by
Lorraine Janzen Kooistra
Poetry, pictures, and popular publishing the illustrated gift book and Victorian visual culture, 1855-1875
by Lorraine Janzen Kooistra
10 editions published between 2011 and 2014 in English and Undetermined and held by 1,073 WorldCat member libraries worldwide "In Poetry, Pictures, and Popular Publishing eminent Rossetti scholar Lorraine Janzen Kooistra demonstrates the cultural centrality of a neglected artifact: the Victorian illustrated gift book. Turning a critical lens on "drawing-room books" as both material objects and historical events, Kooistra reveals how the gift book's visual/verbal form mediated "high" and popular art as well as book and periodical publication. A composite text produced by many makers, the poetic gift book was designed for domestic space and a female audience; its mode of publication marks a significant moment in the history of authorship, reading, and publishing. With rigorous attention to the gift book's aesthetic and ideological features, Kooistra analyzes the contributions of poets, artists, engravers, publishers, and readers and shows how its material form moved poetry into popular culture. Drawing on archival and periodical research, she offers new readings of Eliza Cook, Adelaide Procter, and Jean Ingelow and shows the transatlantic reach of their verses. Boldly re-situating Tennyson's works within the gift-book economy he dominated, Kooistra demonstrates how the conditions of corporate authorship shaped the production and reception of the laureate's verses at the peak of his popularity. Poetry, Pictures, and Popular Publishing changes the map of poetry's place--in all its senses--in Victorian everyday life and consumer culture"--
Christina Rossetti and illustration : a publishing history
by Lorraine Janzen Kooistra
9 editions published between 2002 and 2003 in English and held by 729 WorldCat member libraries worldwide "Christina Rossetti and Illustration: A Publishing History maps the production and reception of Rossetti's illustrated poetry, devotional prose, and work for children, both in the author's lifetime and in posthumous twentieth-century reprints." "Lorraine Janzen Kooistra's reading of Rossetti's illustrated works reveals for the first time the visual-verbal aesthetic that was fundamental to Rossetti's poetics. Her thorough archival research brings to light new information on how Rossetti's commitment to illustration and attitudes toward copyright and control influenced her transactions with publishers and the books they produced. Janzen Kooistra also tracks Rossetti's reception in the twentieth century through a complex web of illustrated books produced for a wide range of audiences." "Analyzing an array of empirical data, Janzen Kooistra shows how Rossetti's packaging for commodity consumption - by religious presses, publishers of academic editions and children's books, and makers of erotica and collectibles - influenced the reception of her work and her place in literary history."--BOOK JACKET
The culture of Christina Rossetti : female poetics and Victorian contexts
4 editions published in 1999 in English and held by 609 WorldCat member libraries worldwide "The Culture of Christina Rossetti offers a radical rethinking of Rossetti's place in the Victorian world of art, literature, and ideas. Examining her poetry, fiction, and nonfiction from a variety of theoretical perspectives, these essays solicit a new understanding of Rossetti as an artist actively engaged in Victorian developments in aesthetics, theology, science, economics, and politics."--Jacket
The artist as critic : bitextuality in fin-de-siècle illustrated books

14 editions published between 1992 and 1997 in English and held by 270 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Saul: [teaching] God is everything - a perfect, luminous essence. But even God wants more - to experience more, to give. So God creates a vessel, a container, that can receive this gift of God's pure light. His divine light pours into the vessel. The vessel, of course, can't contain the magnitude of this light, and it shatters. Destroying the vessel and scattering its broken shards in a big bang of creation. Now, man's job is to locate and gather these shards to make the vessel - our world - whole again. See more »

Players Fear Accidental Use Of Drugs
by Paul on 01/21/06 at 10:32 AM ET
Comments (0)
"I think this is the thing that scares players right now," Toronto Maple Leafs forward Jason Allison said after practice Friday. "I could go to GNC or whatever, buy something to keep my weight on, read the package and it looks good, the next thing you know you get a positive test and people are saying you're cheating, which isn't true.more from the Columbus Dispatch,
For all the trouble and embarrassment the steroid announcement caused him and the Blue Jackets — he is the first NHL player who ever tested positive for steroids — it was pretty much business as usual last night in Nationwide Arena. The fans didn't boo Berard. They didn't hold up signs that expressed their anger or even their extreme disappointment with him. They might have been unhappy with him for the three St. Louis goals that were scored when he was on the ice, but there was no indication they even noticed that. And from the way they acted, they apparently don't feel even the least bit betrayed by his steroid test.read on Brendan Shanahan on steroid use in the NHL-
"Are guys going to get discovered? Sure, we've got over 700 players; we're going to have the odd guy," Shanahan said Friday. "But I've been playing for 18 years, and I've never heard a player talk about its benefits, I've never heard of a player taking it; I've never suspected a player I've played with is taking it."- Detroit Free Press

Intervest Bancshares Corporation Reports Earnings Of $2.5 Million Or $0.12 Per Share For 2011 Second Quarter
The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2011 was $31.8 million, representing 2.54% of total net loans, compared to $34.8 million, or 2.61%, at December 31, 2010 and $30.4 million, or 2.17%, at June 30, 2010. The overall allowance included specific reserves for impaired loans (comprised of nonaccrual loans and accruing TDRs) at each date of $3.4 million, $7.2 million and $3.0 million, respectively.
Securities held to maturity increased by $77 million to $691.3 million at June 30, 2011 from $614.3 million at December 31, 2010, due to new purchases exceeding calls and maturities. The growth in the security investments has been a function of decreased lending opportunities. At June 30, 2011, the portfolio, comprised mainly of U.S. government agency debt securities, had a weighted-average yield to earliest call date of 1.58% and a weighted-average remaining contractual maturity of 4.7 years. The Bank invests in U.S. government agency debt obligations to emphasize safety and liquidity, and does not own or invest in collateralized debt obligations or collateralized mortgage obligations.
Deposits at June 30, 2011 decreased to $1.74 billion from $1.77 billion at December 31, 2010, reflecting a $24 million decrease in time deposits and an $8 million decrease in money market deposit accounts. Borrowed funds and related interest payable at June 30, 2011 decreased to $83 million, from $85 million at December 31, 2010, due to the maturity and repayment of FHLB borrowings, partially offset by an increase in interest payable on trust preferred securities. Stockholders' equity increased to $191 million at June 30, 2011 from $186 million at December 31, 2010, primarily due to $5 million of net earnings before preferred dividend requirements. As required by agreements with its regulators, and as permitted by the underlying documents, the Company has suspended the payment of TARP dividends on its preferred stock and interest on its trust preferred securities since February 2010.

It's short, but there's more to come.
I really liked the minimalist approach you took to drawing this. It's something you don't see very often on here. I'm erally interested to see where you are taking this. Keep up the good work.
v. watchable
I really liked the camera angles you used, in particular when he smashes in the head of the zombie and we sort of pan down to the crowbar thingy swinging in his hand. Looked a bit rotoscoped, maybe I'm wrong, but I don't mind if it was anyway. You worked it well. A good 4/5 and I'm waiting to see where you're gonna take this :)
No, no rotoscoping. I don't have enough money to do something like that. I don't even legally own Flash. But I'm saving. Thanks for the review.
this is really good, i am looking forward to the rest, i was surprised when it was a zombie, reminds me of how much i wanna get dead rising! :D
Great work!
Seriously man, the style was perfected and the graphics were dead-on.
Very very good job on it. I am positive that you will keep on making quality flash.
Thanks! I will.
Man, I gotta tell you. I wouldn't change a thing. The sound effects were perfect. The changing wind sound with the angles, the smashing face and skull...man. And the camera angles to me, were brilliant. Nice work
I wanna tell you to hurry up with part 2, but I wouldnt want you to rush your quality. Excellent, Superb.
Thanks. I'm working on the storyboard for the second one and another animation at the same time - an 80's style action flick. One of the two will be done within a month I'd say. Reviews like this give me motivation and I'm happy to have given you a minute and a half of entertainment, heh. Thanks again.

In an excellent location down the street from the cathedral and city plaza and near the big shopping mall in town, this hotel also boasts many rooms with panoramic vistas of Reloncaví Sound. (Rooms on the seventh and eighth floors have the best views.) A big American-style breakfast, served in a cozy salon, is included in the rate. For Puerto Montt, this is one of the better options, though the hotel could benefit from some renovation.

Jessica Biel For August 2008 Harper's Bazaar
Jessica Biel's All Laid Back About Labels and Love
by Celebrity

Jessica Biel's All Laid Back About Labels and Love
Jessica Biel's got a few months before her next movie hits theaters, which means time for things like hanging out with Justin and fun photo shoots. In the August issue of Harper's Bazaar, Jessica had the opportunity to show off her body in a variety of couture dresses — while dancing with the designers who created them! In the article, Jess gets real about fashion, fitness, and meeting her match. Here are highlights:
- On how her style has changed over the years: "I literally wore Umbro shorts, No Fear T-shirts, and sneakers until I was, like, 15. I didn't care, and my mom didn't care. I didn't have fashion icons. I looked up to [soccer player] Mia Hamm."
- On fashion: "I'm fascinated with the fashion world because I feel sort of intimidated. I feel like a kid with saucer eyes, soaking it all in and having the time of my life."
- On marriage: "You know, the actual idea of signing those papers and doing all this stuff about it, I've never been someone who's like, 'I have to, have to, have to have it.' But the idea of being with somebody I care about, who's my soul mate, that sounds groovy."
To see what else Jess had to say about her body and staying active, just read more.
- On staying fit: "We didn't really have video games or watch TV. We were always camping. My brother and I spent all of our time outside. Playing soccer. Doing gymnastics, skiing, snowboarding. That's really how I grew up. So for me, being athletic and active is a way of life."
- On her body: "I am the shape that I am. I feel no shame in it, you know what I mean? My mother always made me feel just great the way I was."
We'll have to wait and see whether or not Justin is the right one for Jessica, but in the meantime she seems to be doing just fine making movies, rubbing elbows with designers, and staying in shape all on her own.

I don't see what's so great about her, she has a nice derriere but thats it. And I don't think her and Justin will last very long...he seems to get bored after a few years. I can't wait to see her next movie, Easy Virtue, though because Ben Barnes from Prince Caspian is in it...

I think she's pretty, and I like the idea of this photo shoot. I don't know if I've ever seen anything she's been in, so I can't comment on her acting abilities.

Why do people hate so hard on her? I don't get it. She's not ugly or looks like a man, because Maxim, GQ, Esquire and FHM (men's mags by men) wouldn't consistently put her in the top 10 of sexiest women in the world year after year (I, a guy, totally agrees). And what's so wrong with a little muscle tone anyway? Girls, stop hating!

I have heard that the 40 S&W was developed because of the 10MM. The FBI wanted a new cartridge, so they came up with the 10MM. It's a good round, but kinda hot, too hard to shoot or something. So, the 40 uses basically the same components, dumbs it down a bit, and tries to hit between the 9mm & 45ACP. Which it has seemed to do.......
I heard it was developed for da Ganstas, so they can shoot a forty while drinking a forty
Those who hammer their guns into plows will plow for those who do not." ~ Thomas Jefferson
The .40 S&W is a "dumb" downed 10mm. I have one of the original test bed handguns for 10mm. An AO(Thompson) 1911 gov't. When the 10mm was tested, it was to heavy, to much recoil, and way too much over penetration. They must have had girlie men doing the testing. Uses 1911 mags, but holds 8.
Freedom is not free. The best of us always leave too soon.
Yup 10MM was first, initially thought that the recoil was too stout so custom loads were made for LE to send a 180gr. bullet at 980ft/sc. 40S&W was developed to give 10mm power in a 9mm framed gun with high capacity capability and ease of carry.
The FBI Nancy Boys couldn't handle the 10mm recoil so they asked for a 10mm Lite.
