Have You Been Burned By Heartbreak?
- "Science has finally confirmed what anyone who's ever been in love already knows: Heartbreak really does hurt." — CNN Health
In a new study using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), researchers have found that the same brain networks that are activated when you're burned by hot coffee also light up when you think about a lover who has spurned you. What Is Loving To You, Is Loving To Others
In other words, the brain doesn't appear to firmly distinguish between physical pain and intense emotional pain. Heartache and painful breakups are "more than just metaphors," says Ethan Kross, Ph.D., the lead researcher and an assistant professor of psychology at the University of Michigan, in Ann Arbor.
Heartbreak might even hurt more than being burned by coffee. While no one wants to be physically burned, most people are far more focused on having control over not experiencing the pain of heartbreak than the pain of a coffee burn. Do You Know The Difference Between Caring & Care Taking?
The interesting thing to me is that most people have no problem treating themselves with kindness and caring if they are physically hurt, but they have a hard time bringing that same level of compassion to themselves if they are emotionally hurt. Still, a broken heart needs even more gentleness and tenderness than a physical burn.
What Do You Do When Your Heart Is Broken?
Most people have learned many addictive ways of avoiding feeling the pain of their broken heart. As Alexander, a client of mine, told me in a phone session, "I hadn't smoked for years, but I've been smoking since my wife left me for another man six years ago. I can't seem to stop." "We Have No Chemistry": What Does He Mean?
Alexander will not be able to stop smoking until he is willing to feel the burning pain of his broken heart — with deep kindness and compassion toward himself. Smoking is not the only addiction Alexander turns to. Alexander is constantly judging himself for the choices he made during his marriage. As bad as his guilt and shame feel, he prefers these feelings to feeling the loneliness, heartbreak, and helplessness over his wife that lie under his smoking and self-judgments.
When You Feel Lonely And Heartbroken, Do You:
— Overeat, eat junkfood, smoke, drink too much, or take drugs?
— Go on spending sprees?
— Guilt and shame yourself with self-judgments?
— Get angry and blame others, and persist in seeing yourself as a victim?
— Space out in front of the TV?
— Get overly busy with work and other activities?

<< Balbadd Arc >> 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 |
An unimaginable battle between Aladdin and Judar has begun. Aladdin counters Judar's magic spells with Ugo who starts to move independently of Aladdin's will and drives Judar into submission. Kogyoku Ren, a princess of the Kou Empire, joins the fray.
— Crunchyroll
As Ugo concentrates more Magoi into his fists, Sinbad urges everyone to run away, and Ugo slams the ground. Morgiana saves both Alibaba and Aladdin, Alibaba asks Aladdin what's wrong with Ugo. The icicle spear melts away in Ugo's wound. In the sky, Kougyoku and her companions arrive to save Judal. Kou asks her assistant to heal Judal, and when she sees Ugo about to attack, Kou takes out her hairpin and summons Vinea's powers. Ugo attacks Kou's water vortex, and Kou has her water fuses with her sword. She blows up a hole into Ugo, and Ugo disintegrates. Then, Aladdin attacks Kou and explains that Judal attacked them first. Kou calls out Enshin, Entai, and Engi attack everyone below when she learns that Aladdin is Ugo's master. Sinbad has Masrur fight, and Jafar binds a monster behind Morgiana. Alibaba fights one monster who acknowledges Alibaba's strength. Before Kou can transform, Sinbad grabs Kou and cancels her transformation. When Sinbad introduces himself to Kou, Kou blushes and tells him to let go. Sinbad reassures Aladdin that Ugo is still alive and tells Kou that he will meet up with her in a proper meeting. After Kou calls off her soldiers and flies away on her carpet, Aladdin notices Ugo's star on his flute is gone. He tries blowing on the flute. Meanwhile, Sinbad's group and Morgiana help the injured. In Alibaba's room, Alibaba tends to his wounds and reflects back on he could protect everyone. As he looks at his wounds, Morgiana enters the room where she sees Alibaba naked from the waist down in an awkward position. Afterwards, Alibaba informs Morgiana that Aladdin gets exhausted from giving Ugo too much power. Outside, Alibaba and Morgiana find Aladdin who has collapsed on the ground, and Sinbad tells them to take his flute off. Later, Sinbad states that Aladdin has exhausted his magoi which is the same as his life force. He tells everyone that Aladdin needs some rest and may wake up days later. When Alibaba goes outside, some of the Fog Troupes asks Alibaba what to do, and Sinbad arrives to tell the men that Sindria is sending help. Alibaba feels angry at himself for not being strong.
When Balkak arrives, Alibaba greets him and Sahbmad. Balkak states that Sahbmad has risked his life to come here to asks Alibaba. Sahbmad apologizes to Sinbad for the troubles, and Sinbad asks Sahbmad if he was involved. Sahbmad's face confirms it, and he asks Alibaba to stop his older brother. Sahbmad states that he is terrified of what his older brother would do to this country. When Sahbmad breaks down in tears, Balkak explains how the Banker arrive to Ahbmad who had agreed to let Banker overlook in the financial business. Banker introduces Balbadd to the Kou paper bills, Fan. However, Fan causes trouble such as increasing interest and changing value in inflation. Balkak states that country is in debt for borrowing too much. When Balkak talks about how Ahbmad raises the taxes and shut down the slums, Alibaba remembers what Cassim had stated earlier. Then, Ahbmad points out that their next collateral is humans, and Sahbmad will sell off Balbadd citizens as slaves. Upon hearing Sahbmad, Morgiana gets angry and tells Alibaba to stop this, and everyone is riled up. Alibaba looks at Sinbad with an overwhelmed look.

The Snag Hole
Randy's Ramblings
Some more insight from Ennis fishing guide and former Madison River Foundation board member Mike Lum:
"The water level on the upper is and has been stable for over a week now. 776 cfs out of Hebgen which translates to just under 1000 at Varney. This is lower than the long-term median average but not a bad level all things considered. Speaking of this…there may be some very positive changes in the works starting as early as this fall/winter. PP&L has recently indicated that they are considering some in-house changes to their Madison River management policies. In essence they will be looking at running the flows in a completely different and reactive way as has been been discussed here (and elsewhere). Their plan, apparently, is to run the flow out of Hebgen at the current rate (or close to it) all winter and keep most of the water in the reservoir instead of drawing it down as has been their practice. They will then react to real-time, on the ground conditions of snowpack and water content. They are talking about doing away with the 10% flow increase rule for the spring months and potentially upping the maximum over-Quake flow rate to 4000 cfs or a hair higher if possible. In essence they're considering running the flows here more like a "real" undammed river would operate…moderate and stable over-winter flow and higher, runoff-like flows in the spring. The light bulbs seem to be flickering to life…Hallelujah! We're not holding our collective breaths yet but it's definitely a very good sign. Believe it or not (and some folks continue to choose not to believe it) this could be HUGE for this river and this fishery. If they actually make these changes and once they get the dam fixed (a whole other point of contention here) yearly spring flushing flows, cooler water temps and potentially higher flows here through most summers could mean some dramatic changes in the health and numbers of not only fish but fish food as well. We'll be keeping a very close ear to this."
Shouldn't we be getting this kind of seriously vital input from the Madison River Foundation instead of a local boat rower? Isn't that the core reason for the existence of the Foundation? To Preserve, Protect and Enhance? THE HEBGEN DAM IS FAR AND AWAY THE SINGLE MOST CRITICAL FACTOR FOR THE HEALTH OF THE UPPER MADISON RIVER AND ITS TROUT. Nothing else is a close second.
Why doesn't the Foundation have someone like Lum agressively posting river info on a daily or weekly basis, especially during the important summer fishing season? Oops, I forgot...they did have that person on their board...his name was Mike Lum and he resigned. Why?
You can follow Mike Lum's comments in the River Reports section of the Madison River Fishing Company's website:
Richard Lessner has resigned his postion as Exec. Dir. of the Madison River Foundation, a non-profit he started when he rolled into town in 2003 and said "what a great idea". It's not the first time Mr. Lessner has resigned or been fired from his job.
In 1992, Lessner got in trouble for writing an article in the Arizona Republic newspaper ripping the victims of Hurricane Andrew in So. Florida, one of the worst natural disasters in the history of the U.S., calling them "snivelers", whiners and ingrates. Hurricane Andrew left 65 people dead and caused over $26.5 billion in damage. After being deluged with negative feedback and outrage from all over the U.S., Lessner was forced to resign. He earned the nickname "Hurricane Lessner" over this fiasco. One of Lessner's famous quotes from this article was:
"Americans are suckers and will contribute cash money to almost any outfit so long as it's called "(fill in the blank)" center for the public interest". (Arizona Republic, Sept. 6, 1992). Sounds like Mr. Lessner didn't think much of common folk.
By the way, the Arizona Republic newspaper also had on staff David Hans Schmidt, also know as "The Sultan of Sleeze". He wrote articles for the paper as a "celebrity porn broker" and got caught trying to extort millions from Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes over their wedding photos. Schmidt hung himself in his Arizona home before facing trial. But I digress.
After losing his job in Arizona, Lessner went to work for the Manchester Union Leader newspaper in New Hampshire. He didn't last long. He was fired for writing an article bashing French Canadians. Oh well, there's always Washington DC.
Lessner rolled into Washington and landed a gig with the American Conservative Union. The ACU was founded by William F. Buckley in 1964 after Barry Goldwater lost the US Presidential election to Lyndon Johnson by 61% of the vote. Notable members of the ACU include Tom Delay (convicted felon), Jesse Helms, Richard Viguerie, Bob Barr and Brent Bozell. The ACU got into hot water in fiscal year 2009 when Exec. Dir. David Keene's ex-wife, Diana Hubbard Carr, was their comptroller. She got her hand caught in the cookie jar to the tune of $300,000. She was fired and pled guilty to embezzlement. Lessner was Executive Director of the American Conservative Union in 2004, a year after he "founded" The Madison River Foundation. Guess it was time to get out of Dodge.
So "Old Hurricane" landed a job with Captial City Partners (a Washington "consulting" firm) and wrote a nasty article for the Weekly Standard bashing soccer. Soccer? C'mon Richard, ease off on the hatred.
No one who lives in Ennis, Montana as I have for 34 years, wants anything but the best for the Madison River, this great valley and the good folks who live here and work here. Richard Lessner was forced to "retire" because he just did not get it. He thought he could get in bed with Pennsylvania Power and Light, take their money...and cover up for them. PP&L is a money donor to MRF...don't call them out...don't piss them off...cover up for them . You know how Washington works...scratch my back, etc.
Hey Richard, this ain't Washington DC...people here are honest...we deal in facts, reality, truth. Your cause is good...but your DNA is dangerous. The Madison River has a soul...it runs deep and true...it can't be bought.
Lessner put on a show...hang with all the money people...pimp the Sun West Subdivision where they dug up Native American campsites to build their summer mansions and then ran folks off for eating lunch at Horse Creek.
The Sun West Subdivision...who fucked up the Shelton Bridge so bad making the road nice and smooth for the "Foundation Benefactors" that they broke loose all the cliff swallow nests into the river and destroyed them. Who cares?...the swallows will be back next year...worthless birds, anyway. And don't forget to post those attractive "Land For Sale" signs on the Shelton Bridge. And make sure the road is nice and level, to make it easier for Craig and Jackie Matthews to get home from a hard day of taking credit for just about everything (they are Sun West residents...happy for them).
The Sun West Subdivision...site of the infamous Ed Parish "Secret Meeting" that took place unbeknownst to the public in a subversive effort to pressure FWP to "get rid of the boats on the river".
And let's not forget to pimp the Laszlos...those benevolent "Foundation Benefactors"...the Granger family...those caring and sharing environmentalists who would love to have you come visit, fish and duck hunt the Upper O'Dell Ck...as long as you write a big enough check. The same Granger/Laszlo family who dammed up and blocked off the O'Dell Creek outlet to the Madison River, upstream and east of Burnt Tree to keep the nasty old public out. Here's a quote from one of the Foundation volunteers:
"I volunteered in 2011 and 2012 at the Granger Ranch project. I am sure that the ranch benefited more from our efforts than the river. Richard Lessner has never given me a real handshake or looked me in the eye."
Mr. Lessner, were you aware the Granger/Laszlos artificially altered the course of O'Dell Creek outlet...a tributary to the Madison River... when you put your arm around them and gave them a big kiss? I'm sure you had no idea but heck, nobody's perfect, take their money anyway.
Hey Granger/Laszlos...you want to do something to help the Madison River and O'Dell Creek? Then restore the stream bed to its original, natural state....the way it was before you hacked it up and dammed it.
You can see the old stream bed from O'Dell Ck. that used to flow freely into the Madison River from the east side above Burnt Tree before the Granger Ranch blocked it off and altered its course to prevent the public from legal access to O'Dell Ck.
Get all the big money people in a room, have a big Gala, feed 'em a rubber chicken and a shrimp cocktail, pour some merlot, take their money and spread the news. Have a big Festival and get up there and strut your stuff...give away a boat...be somebody!
And start the Dick McGuire Memorial Fund...I get a chuckle out of that one...I knew Dick Mcguire...I lived with Dick McGuire...I fished with Dick McGuire. Mr Lessner...you have no clue about Dick McGuire.
So here we are today. The Madison River Foundation is a cause to believe in...a cause to support..an excellent cause. The question is how? What to do with the money? Who will lead?
I have friends on the Board...Sherri Shows, Nancy DiMeola, Storrs Bishop...these are the best of the best people you will ever meet. I have fished with Bruce Richards and he is at the top of the list in integrity and knowledge. Jim Goetz is one of the leading conservation and legal minds in the state of Montana and in the USA. I was here in 1984 to witness the courtroom work he did on the Beaverhead and Dearborn stream access cases...these were historical legal judgements...and he was kind enough to send me the legal briefs on the Beaverhead case which I sent along to some of my concerned fishing clients. Jim Goetz is top notch. I knew Jim's dad, Herb Goetz who was a legend here in Ennis and a one-of-a-kind character!
The Madison River Foundation will continue...the cause is just...they should reach around $300,000 in the bank by this year with a half-million in sight. Hurricane Lessner should be thanked for his efforts and sent on his way...this is not Washington DC or Arizona or New Hampshire...it is Montana. Things are different here. God Speed.
Make sure you are fishing so the moose thinks you are busy...it helps to spot the moose far away:
Make sure you have the wind right and sneak along the shoreline and don't fall in a hole making a big splash that will freak out the moose.
Make sure the moose is not too intelligent and does not have a calf with her.
Make sure the moose is nearsighted and does not mistake you for Bullwinkle or maybe Dudley Do-Right.
If you make it home in one piece have a Moose Drool on me!
The recent low flow and dangerously elevated water temp crisis in the Upper Madison River was a scary situation...the worst I had seen in my over 40 years of watching the Madison.
And speaking of watching, I had hoped the "Guardians of the River," The Madison River Foundation, would have been watching...or acting...or guarding...but instead they decided to play the "politics as usual"card. This was the response from their founder, Richard Lessner:
"The Foundation is neither a spokesman nor an apologist for PPL. Forecasting long term weather trends and how much water is going to be available months in the future is very challenging. Does PPL always get it exactly right? Of course not. But it does the best that current climate and weather science allows. Hindsight is always 20/20. Plus, PPL is answerable to many and varied stakeholders and does its best to satisfy often conflicting demands."
Thank you very much...now let's get to the important stuff...the next Gala Banquet...the next Festival...and those groovy embroidered shirts and hats. Get out there and press some flesh. And don't piss off the power company or y'all will be reading the wine list by candlelight. Tell Igor up there at the dam to keep spinning those dials...he's bound to hit it right sooner or later. In the meantime, pass the shrimp cocktail!
The following remarks are from Mike Lum. Mike is an Ennis, Mt. fishing guide and former Board Member (resigned) of the Madison River Foundation. The Foundation was founded in 2003 by Richard Lessner, a former Washington, D.C. lobbyist with the American Conservative Union.
Richard Lessner
Mike Lum's comments:
Late last week a newsletter penned by Richard Lessner of the Madison River Foundation started circulating in response to questions and concerns he's been fielding about the current state of the Madison...flows and temperatures specifically. I disagree with a lot of what's contained in that newsletter and would like to…for want of a better word…rebut what Richard said in it. This is not meant to be a personal attack on Richard or a condemnation of the Foundation itself. It is meant to give a different perspective and set the record straight on a few things that Richard got wrong. You can follow the URL links I'll provide to check my facts if you'd like. I'll try and follow the flow of the newsletter and address the things I have issues with in the order they appear there. Here we go…"PPL operates under strict requirements in its federal license that does not allow it to kill fish." This is not strictly true…The language in the license speaks of temperature triggers only on the LOWER Madison to protect the fishery. Article 413 of the FERC license has the pertinent information. You can find that here…http://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_DOCUMENTS/stelprdb5133641.pdfBasing pulse flow protocols on a certain "trigger" temperature only accounts for part of the story. Trout don't just all of a sudden start dying when the water temps reach 77 degrees or whatever they decide their number may be. Dissolved oxygen (which can vary based on many different factors...such as flow rate), external stresses (such as catch and release angling), available food, etc. can all attribute to mortality at much lower water temps. All this however is of little use here as they only have a pulse flow protocol in place for the LOWER MADISON (downstream from Ennis Lake). No such protections are in place for the upper river (the part that constitutes the #1 or #2 most used section of river in the state)."When water temperatures approach potentially lethal ranges, typically above 78F for rainbow trout…" What about brown trout? What about whitefish (you might not like em but big trout eat em)? What about sculpins and all the myriad invertebrates that trout eat?"PPL pulses water out of Hebgen Lake to cool Ennis Lake and, consequently, the lower river below Bear Trap." No they don't….they raise the flow out of Hebgen to keep Ennis Lake full enough (not cool enough...pretty tough to cool anything with 70+ degree water) to pulse the lower.Pulse: b. Any of a series of intermittent occurrences characterized by a brief sudden change in a quantity."Brief, sudden change"…that means a raising and lowering of river flow in a short span of time (a few hours as in the case of lower river pulses). The differences in flow protocols between the upper and lower Madison are shown clearly in the USGS real-time stream flow hydrographs which you can find here…http://waterdata.usgs.gov/mt/nwis/uv/?site_no=06038500&PARAmeter_cd=00060,00065,00010and here…http://waterdata.usgs.gov/mt/nwis/uv/?site_no=06041000&PARAmeter_cd=00060,00065,00010"The upper river between Quake Lake and Ennis is much less susceptible to dangerous warming than the lower river." Yes, Richard is mostly correct here…were we operating under anything approaching normal circumstances. PP&L continues work on Hebgen Dam which necessitates using the dam overflow structure to control the flow which draws water off the top of the reservoir (instead of 30 feet beneath the surface as was the case when the dam was functioning). The average water temp coming into the upper Madison is 3-5 degrees warmer to begin with than it "normally' is. Since the dam failure and repair process began the upper river has actually been, on many days, experiencing warmer water temps at the Kirby gauge than downstream at Varney."Higher water temperatures in the upper river may slow fishing during the middle part of the day, but they do not pose a lethal threat to the fish." Wrong again…virtually every guide I know including myself has seen dead fish on a daily basis out there for almost a week now. Yes, this is due in part to stress from catch and release fishing (when coupled with the high water temps). It is NOT a normal occurrence to see dead fish on a daily basis on this river when "The river is doing just fine.""PPL does take into consideration such recreational use as angling but its priority is to protect the fish." Its priority, actually, is to protect its investors and its capacity to generate electricity. This is clearly illustrated in the license language."But under its federal guidelines PPL cannot increase (or decrease) flows more than 10 percent a day. This limit is in consideration of recreational activities on the river, including fishing." This is correct but it is also one of the license requirements a lot of us have been arguing for years needs to be changed. There is no reason we couldn't do away with that rule for the months of March, April, May and even June. It is one of the rules that PP&L runs up against when they are making their inflow calculations in the fall. They can't raise it more than 10% per day so they need to make sure they have enough room in the reservoir to accommodate enough runoff that they don't need to."In response to low flows and higher temperatures PPL began pulsing water out of Hebgen this week." No, they didn't…in response to high water temps (nothing to do with low flows) on the LOWER Madison they began pulsing water out of Ennis Lake so they had to raise the flow out of Hebgen to keep enough water in Ennis to do so."As to flows, this year's drought conditions (see map above) have caused lower than average river flows across much of the region." Yes, and we all knew that we were seeing drought conditions as early as February in this part of the state. More on this later but you can find the data here…Look in the Water Year 2013 .pdfs for continuing updates throughout the year.http://www.mt.nrcs.usda.gov/snow/watersupply/outlook_reports.html"PPL has been criticized for keeping flows too high over the winter. At FWPs suggestion, PPL maintains fairly constant flows from November through March in order to protect spawning habitat in the main stem of the Madison. Steady flows around 1,000 cfs are deemed important for this purpose." Yes, you can see from article 403, section 4 of the FERC license, the first part of Richard's statement is (sort of) true. They actually do it because they are mandated to in the license not because FWP suggests it but…I'm being nitpicky. The last sentence however is not…nowhere in there does it say anything about 1000 cfs (or greater as it was operated at 1100-1200 cfs for most of this winter). Trout don't necessarily need 1000 cfs to spawn successfully….only STABLE FLOWS to protect the eggs until they hatch. The fish will find areas to spawn whether the flow is 500, 1000 or 5000 cfs.http://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_DOCUMENTS/stelprdb5133641.pdf"In looking at long-range weather, snow and moisture forecasts last fall, PPL deemed such flows justifiable. The forecasts turned out to be less than accurate, predicted average spring snows did not appear, and water levels are low." Less than accurate forecasts?!? In the Rocky Mountains?? Six months in advance?? NO!! Once again, you can take a look at the NRCS water data for MT and not only was southwest, MT the driest part of the state this past winter it started out so in January and February and continued to decline through the first two weeks in May. This is possibly THE most important part of our argument. PP&L stubbornly refuses to utilize real-time, on the ground weather and water data when they are calculating their winter and spring time flow regime. You can clearly see here….http://nwis.waterdata.usgs.gov/mt/nwis/uv?cb_00060=on&cb_00065=on&cb_00010=on&format=gif_default&period=&begin_date=2013-03-01&end_date=2013-07-07&site_no=06038500That despite the persistently dry condition in the Madison drainage, they didn't really react (with lowered flows out of Hebgen) until mid-May and early June (when it was WAY too late). They actually ran it at almost 1000 cfs out of Hebgen (almost 700 cfs higher than during the hottest stretch of weather we had here last week) until late April. The importance of this and the timing CANNOT be overstated. They had plenty of water in the lake to have it full by April or May had they reacted sooner to the drought conditions. People will talk about hindsight and such…B.S.! The data showing drought conditions here existed in January! The river paid hard for this over the past several weeks and could pay hard again later this summer. "Under its federal license, PPL is required to fill Hebgen by June 30. It's almost there. The lake today is less than a foot from full pool." Yes, less than a foot from full…the foot that actually contains the most acre feet of any as they fill it. The sides of the reservoir are not straight up and down…the closer it gets to full the more water it takes per inch to continue filling it. They MIGHT get it full if they get lucky and it keeps raining but only at the expense of seriously low flows and high water temps on the upper river. "A full Hebgen provides a reserve of water for those pulse flows mentioned above should July, August and September prove unusually warm. Retaining the highest possible level of water in the lake also facilitates completion of repair work on the dam. Lake levels in the fall determine how long into the season construction can continue. PPL aims to complete work on the dam in 2014, something everybody desires." Hey…something we agree on! It's just that PP&L should have had it full months ago before it got hot!"The fisheries biologists at Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks also closely monitor river temperatures and flows. FWP has established and published guidelines on temperatures and river closures for cold water fisheries. Here is the link to these guidelines: Drought Fishing Closure Policy." Yep, great…so the only policy in place to mitigate stress on fish in the upper is closure. They'd actually rather close it to fishing than put more water into it to cool it off."It would be nice, of course, if nature were entirely predictable. It's not. Weather, climate, snowfall, rain, drought -- all change from year to year. Some years are wetter than others; some are drier. Predicting months in advance how much water will be available is tricky." No shit…that's why they should factor in real-time data!"Moreover, even in "normal" years the Madison naturally has a steep daily thermograph. In summer the river has a very steep temperature curve, rising sharply in the middle of the day and falling overnight. This is entirely natural." Yep, the only unnatural parts are the heat sink reservoirs and the broken dam."Longtime Madison anglers know it's best to fish early, take the afternoon off, and wait on the river to start cooling toward evening. Those who insist on fishing "banker's hours" should accept this daily temperature spike as a reality and adjust expectations accordingly. Of course, even this reality is subject to exceptions. Trout may continue to feed actively even when water temperatures increase above the ideal if there is abundant food present, such as grasshoppers in late summer." And apparently some of us need an education on how and when to fish the Madison…and oh, don't forget to "adjust expectations…""Warm summer temperatures and lower flows are normal. These conditions are even more pronounced in uncontrolled rivers that do not support dams and reservoirs." We LOVE dams and reservoirs!! Yay!!"The Madison is not in crisis. It is a healthy, robust river and a superb fishery. The river is doing just fine; it's human expectations that need adjustment." Yes, the Madison will weather the current crisis that some folks would rather keep their heads in the sand about. Water will continue to flow, fish will continue to eat and (sometimes) flourish here…this, somehow, misses the point. One of the greatest natural resources we have in this state, one that not only generates countless hours of enjoyment for thousands of people (anglers and non) but millions of dollars in state revenue from tourism dollars is under the management and control of an out of state, for-profit power company. Are they the devil incarnate? No, of course not…but they absolutely could choose to do things in a way that would benefit the people who use and love this river….possibly even over their own corporate concerns. That last sentence I quoted actually strikes me as a bit contradictory. So, there's no problem…we just need to adjust our expectations and everything is just fine…Hmmm…for some reason that just doesn't sit very well. All the Bengal Tigers are dying! …well, you just need to adjust your expectations that there will be fewer of them and it'll be fine. A bit tangential I know but…The license requirements that I'd like to see revisited are the 10% per day maximum flow change. I think this could be done away with, as previously stated during the months of Feb, March, April, May and possibly even June. Also the 3500 cfs max flow over Quake. This is to minimize erosion of the earthen dam. Quake is naturally eroding anyway…..it is a lake created through natural causes. Why are we working so hard to keep it as it is? So we speed up the erosion of the dam and lowering of the lake level by a decade or two (if that, I'm making up those numbers to illustrate a point). The years PP&L would need to run it higher than 3500 would be few and far between anyway if they paid attention and utilized real-time data. This is from article 403, section 4 of the FERC license… "…maintain the elevation of Hebgen Reservoir between 6,530.26 and 6,534.87 feet (normal full pool elevation) from June 20 through October 1." Take a look at those elevation numbers…..as per the license that RANGE is considered "normal full pool elevation". There is FOUR FEET of lake elevation within this parameter that P&LL could use to keep more flow in the river! Think about that….yet on most years they end up with closer to 6534 feet than they do the smaller number. In fact there is 6534.5 feet in there RIGHT NOW…yet they ran it at almost minimum flows while the water temp climbed to 74 degrees (actually much higher than that in the channels section downstream from Ennis)! Now tell me again how they are doing such a great job managing this river. SO…even after the dam repairs are finished (as certainly was the case before it broke) PP&L can and will still run the upper river to try and maintain a full reservoir (as long as the lower stays cool enough they don't have to pulse it). Then, come late Sept or early Oct they jack the flow (most years this will end up being higher all winter than during the hottest part of the summer) to draw the lake level down again. I'm not making this up. They are operating within the constraints of their licensing agreement…legally not doing anything wrong. We are questioning the rules themselves not PP&Ls compliance to them.The information is there. The language in the license is clear. There is leeway for PP&L even as it is written. They CHOOSE to operate as they do in many cases. This is the gist of our (my) argument. Draw your own conclusions.Mike Lum

Dynatrap XL and Dynatrap 1250 Set
Bye Bye bugs
Love my Dynatrap! Best thing on the market.
No pesticides, no refills, no sprays.
Very efficient at trapping critters. Easy to empty
Only need to replace the bulbs (but I've had mine two seasons and haven't replaced them yet and the unit is still working effectively.
October 20, 2014
Dynatrap XL
It has worked well so far but it has been only about 2 weeks. We have trapped countless insects including mosquitos, moths, gnats etc. Hope it continues to do the job.
September 26, 2014
works well but....when you go to empty it some of
the bugs are not dead and fly away. i spray the screen first to kill them but not a good fix.
September 17, 2014
So far so good
I bought this because I was finding so many dead bugs in my light fixtures, I figured this would be better than my mosquito magnet which stopped working and needed bait and propane every 3 weeks. So far so good with the Dynatrap, catching mosquito's as expected.
September 9, 2014
This product did not work for us. The mosquitoes were as bad as ever. We ran the unit for 2 weeks without much satisfaction. Frontgate did accept the return without any issues - just as they advertise. Thank you, Frontgate.

Dynatrap Mosquito
I read the reviews and bought the Dynatrap 1250-what a mistake. I actually think it attracts mosquitos not contain or destroy. It seems I have more now than ever before and its impossible to go on the patio. A big mistake to buy as it has done nothing, had I kept the packaging it would have been returned the first week
July 17, 2014
No more bugs!
I can't tell you how thrilled I am with the Dynatrap XL. I live in New Jersey surrounded by acres of wooded wetland and the bugs are relentless. I got this as a gift not believing that it would work, but hey, it was a gift let's give it a try. The first day the bug trap had lots of bugs. I wanted to see what I was getting so I dumped them out. I also happen to have 4 cute chickens so I called them over to gobble them up. There were green head flies, Japanese beetles, and a host of other insects. The tick surprised me but we are in the woods. We have been able to have dinner outside on the porch nightly. Love it!

1. Turn power switch to "off" position. UNPLUG UNIT, and allow bulb to cool before replacing.2. Remove retaining cage, and turn unit upside down.
3. Remove the four screws securing the fan housing to the light housing. After removing the screws, gently pull the fan housing away from
the light housing. Using a soft brush, remove dirt and debris from the light housing. Once the cleaning process has been completed,
untighten the screw securing the base of the light bulb to the light housing. Slide the metal bracket to the side. Cover the bulb with a
cloth to protect your finger and hand. Grasp the bulb (with your hand and fingers protected by the cloth) and gently pull the bulb from
the socket.
4. Remove any debris from the lamp socket with a brush before inserting the new bulb. Replace the metal plate over the base of the bulb
and tighten the retaining screw.
5. Align the screw holes in the fan housing with the screw holes in the lighting unit and tighten the screws to the base of the lighting unit.

Hamburg, NY (WBEN) - Gun rights activists gathered Friday morning at Hamburg Town Court, where a man was up on charges because of an anti-SAFE act sign he hung on his fence.
Scott Zwierucha is accused of a village code violation for the large banner on the fence of his South park Avenue property. Right now, the sign says "New York is not Safe - Fight Cuomo- preserve your rights."
Friday, Hamburg Town Justice Walter Rooth recused himself from the case because his son is the town attorney. Justice Gerald Gorman had previously recused himself from the case. Zwierucha's case will now be transferred to another town, though it is not clear yet what town that will be.
In November he had a similar sign that he says was also related to gun control and the SAFE act and said "Sheriff Howard- Fighting for Your Rights". Howard, during his successful re-election campaign frequently said he would not enforce the state's gun law setting limits on ammunition and types of guns.
Zwierucha says after being told in November that the sign was o-k- in January he was served a violation and told to take it down only after the town board majority flipped to Democrats.
"This is a first amendment issue. There are fences with commercial messages on it all over town," he says,
Town officials did not return a phone call seeking comment.
Members of the gun rights group SCOPE, the Shooter's Committee on Public Education, have taken up Zwierucha's cause and rallied outside the town hall before the case is heard Friday morning.
"Scotty is so down to earth it's unreal," said one protester. "He'd do anything for anybody, he's a good guy. It's just a shame it's come to this."
Before he took the case, Ostrowski addressed it broadly this past weekend on WBEN's Hardline program (Sundays 10am-12noon) and said that the town will have a tough time prosecuting the case if they cite any rules against political signs
"You have an absolute right to have a political sign on your property in spite of any local laws to the contrary. . Off the public right of way you can have any sign you want and that's been ruled on by the Supreme Court," Ostrowski says.
Zwierucha meanwhile is looking forward to the case being resolved in a favorable manner.
"I just want to be left alone," Zwierucha said. "I don't want to see them abuse any other residents in the future. I don't care what your cause is, you have a right to your opinion."

A small boy sits alone, his eyes gone cold, his hands shaking as he falls, blood dripping from his mouth as his head hits the ground. Tears stream from his eyes, and he knows that this is to be his death.
Above him once loomed a shadow, his eyes glowing red. He had laughed as he pushed the boy to the floor, not resting until blood poured from his mouth and he screamed in pain.
The darkness closed in, devouring the boy slowly, savoring the kill. No. He could not escape this time.
Blood pooled around him as he closed his eyes for the final time, not wanting to see the crimson death by which he faced.
But the darkness was conquered and the shadows fled as a bright light filled the room. A gentle voice spoke softly as the boy was pulled from the darkness, which cowered in the corner, hiding its twisted face.
The boy looked up to see the face of a stranger, one unknown, yet vaguely familiar
as if once seen in a dream.
who are you?" the boy whispered.
But the stranger only smiled, the pain now gone forever more.
I will protect you.

This guide is intended to be an informative beginning to the advising process for prospective music majors. It is not intended to substitute for one-on-one academic advising or faculty-student counseling. Please review this information carefully and meet with one of our music faculty members and an academic advisor before deciding if majoring in music is right for you.
Thank you for your interest in majoring in music at Richland College. We are proud to offer one of the most comprehensive undergraduate music programs in Texas, especially at the community-college level. If you are thinking about a career in music, obtaining a degree in music may or may not be the right thing for you, depending on your intentions. Music at the college-level is a very competitive field that typically focuses on classical music and jazz. Students majoring in music typically have extensive experience in music prior to matriculation in a college music program. A conventional 4-year college/university undergraduate music program will offer degrees in music with majors in instrumental or vocal performance, elementary and secondary music education, music composition and musicology/music theory. Some but not all undergraduate music programs also offer majors in recording technology, sacred music, music therapy, musical theater, music publishing, music business/arts administration, and more. Advanced degrees in music are available in all of those disciplines, with the additional availability of majors in specialized disciplines such as ethnomusicology, and conducting. A listing of careers in music, along with salary scales and suggested college training can be found at http://www.menc.org/industry/job/careers/careers.html.
Richland College offers a Field of Study Associates degree in Music that is fully transferrable to any Texas 4-year public university. Many private and out-of-state universities also accept transfer credit from Richland College, though they reserve the right to evaluate which credits they will accept for transfer on a case by case basis. The degree plan offers some flexibility so that students can take the right courses as required by their chosen 4-year college/university music program.

Does HOK stay involved after a project's handoff? We do where we can. In looking at the full life cycle of the built environment, we want to be part of the preplanning, design, and construction, and into post occupancy. We have some projects where we've been able to go through the whole post-occupancy side and look at energy, water, and indoor environment. That's wonderful and we love that. It helps inform the client and provides our own lessons learned.
We're doing some interesting work now on a big scale, and we are doing sustainable-development guidelines for new cities in Saudi Arabia. Our client wants to develop a set of guidelines for new communities and urban growth centers to conserve energy use and ensure a long-term reliable supply of energy.
These are the kind of things we're doing outside of the more traditional design and construction realm in our consulting efforts. We're filling out the 360-degree view of the life cycle of the built environment, and recognizing it as an opportunity to provide those kinds of additional roles and a need to be fully integrated in what we're doing to really drive change.
Looking at the shape of the sustainability in the building realm today, what do you consider to be the most pressing concern or challenge facing design professionals? One continues to be global warming and the impact of the built environment. This is the number one issue that we continue to need to address in both adaptation and reduction of emissions. Adaptation and resilience is a big part of the picture for me. How can we design a more resilient solution that will work in this world of climate change? We know it is changing, so how do we work with that while embracing passive strategies? That's really important.
Second, we need to be thinking about more than one building at a time. As many of our colleagues have said, you're not going to pave your way to heaven through single LEED Platinum buildings. We need to look at the neighborhood scale and the urban scale, now that the majority of people live in cities. We also need to look at existing buildings and existing infrastructure. That's where opportunities are to really make a difference.
The last thing I'm thinking about a lot lately is the link between human health and the health of the environment with the built environment. We have a global health crisis and an obesity epidemic. We know that how we design typically on the larger scale and on the building scale makes a huge difference. Also, part of that issue is toxicity and what we are introducing into our buildings, which is just now an emerging awareness; I think it's very important, along with the link to biophilia.

Purchase Reason
I love the print and the frame I chose but was disappointed when it arrived [...]because the print itself was squint and loose within the frame. [...] I do feel it was a bit overpriced with the framing service at just over £100.00. [...] have no hesitation in buying another print.

so on the federal level, a CCW holder has already gone through the required background checks and can walk in and buy any weapon without the forms or dealer calling a background check? that's interesting that the Feds will allow that, although some states don't. I was thinking about this yesterday as I was buying a new handgun. Did I want to present my CCW license and see if I could skip all that? or just go through the same checks as anyone else. I decided that part of being a CCW holder means to not broadcast to everyone that you're a CCW holder, even if you're "among friends" in a gun store, so I made no mention of holding a license, and just filled out the paperwork like any other schmuck in the store. As I continued to think about it, what if I had gone through all the checks and acquired my CCW permit, but then 2 years later, committed some crime, I might fail a NICS check, but still hold the permit, no? On a side note, what I saw and heard while in the gun store was actually somewhat scarey. the kinds of questions people were asking, it was painfully obvious that it was their first time ever in a gun store, and first time ever buying a weapon, and that they had absolutely no idea about weapons or safe weapons handling, or ANY kind of experience around weapons. Now, god bless them for deciding to arm themselves, but holy crap, it's scarey to think that these people who don't know anything about guns, with no experience whatsoever about guns, are buying guns as fast as they can.
FWIW- there are SOME state CCWs that substitute for NICS. Some do not. If you need a list of the states that DO- it is on line in the ATF stuff. Exercise your Google-fu. Yes, NICS gets backed up- especially lately, with the flood of new buyers. Yes, dealer can refuse a sale. Including if he thinks you are a twit. As far as stupid questions in a gun shop- what a GREAT place to ask them! If you have a good gun shop. It is called bonding with your future customers, customer service, etc. We also also some pretty damed dumb questions here. Rarely do we tell the person asking it that it is a dumb question. Don't discourage people from seeking information.
What we have here is... failure- to communicate.
Hoss are forming a pattern here??
Iowa if you have ccw they don't have to call in the check still have to do the paper work it is nice just go in buy what u want hand your permit over to dealer and right the number on papers then on your way home
In life, strive to take the high road....It offers a better field of fire. "Robo is right" Fuzzball

Nebraska Cornhuskers (12-15)
@13 Michigan St. Spartans (24-5)
Saturday, February 25
Breslin Center
Attendance: 14,797
13 Michigan St.
East Lansing, MI (Sports Network) - Draymond Green poured in 20 points and pulled down 10 rebounds, leading sixth-ranked Michigan State to a 62-34 dismantling of Nebraska at Jack Breslin Student Events Center on Saturday.
Austin Thornton scored nine points and Brandon Wood added seven for the Spartans (24-5, 13-3 Big Ten), who have won seven straight games. Branden Dawson and Russell Byrd donated six points apiece in the victory.
"At halftime we talked about doing more with our defense, to knock some balls loose and maybe turn them into some fast break bucket," said Michigan State head coach Tom Izzo. "I think it started with Dawson. He gets that big steal and kind of gets things going a little bit."
Brandon Ubel paced the Cornhuskers (12-15, 4-12) with 13 points and Brandon Richardson added six in defeat. Nebraska has lost six of its last seven games.
"Well, I thought first off, I'm not for sure that they were, obviously, playing at the very best that they could play," said Nebraska head coach Doc Sadler. "But then when they decided in the second half to really clamp down on us like they did, that's when the game got completely out of hand."
Michigan State started hot, netting the first seven points of the game before Ubel tipped one in off a Richardson miss to get the Cornhuskers on the board.
Richardson hit a jumper midway though the first half to pull Nebraska within 11-6, but Michigan State responded with a 10-3 burst to extend its lead to a comfortable 21-9 with 4:35 to go.
The Cornhuskers scored six of the final eight points of the half to pull to within 23-15 at the break.
The Spartans shot 50 percent (9-of-18) from the floor in the opening 20 minutes, while holding the Cornhuskers to just 26.9 percent (7-of-26) shooting.
Michigan State absolutely dominated Nebraska in the second half. The Spartans opened the latter 20 minutes with a 28-6 run, which put them up 51-21 with under 10 minutes to play.
Michigan State rolled the rest of the way to the easy victory, allowing the Cornhuskers to score only 19 points on 31.8 percent (7-of-22) shooting in the second half.

What a joke.
Don't forget to get your flu jab.
This "pandemic" is perhaps the biggest hoax since WMD in Iraq. All fear all the time, relentless and unwarranted.
What this article fails to mention is that among the millions who have had the flu there have only been a thousand deaths attributed to it. Most people don't even die from the flu itself but have underlying conditions that lead to their deaths.
I had it a month ago. I had minor symptoms for two days and didn't even take off from work. Of course I don't run to the hospital with every sniffle like we've been trained to do.
It's simply amazing the lies perpetrated by the media regarding swine flu. The only thing they tell you is to wash your hands and take the vaccine. No mention of vitamins D or C – known flu-killers.
They also say that they're "targeting" small children and pregnant women for vaccination despite the fact that the vaccine inserts themselves recommend not giving it to children under four years of age and pregnant women. Of course, no one really reads these inserts.
This insert for the Fluvirin vaccine reveals a number of warnings that go unmentioned in the media.
Such as…
Pregnancy Category C: Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with FLUVIRIN®. It is also not known whether FLUVIRIN® can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman or can affect reproduction capacity. FLUVIRIN® should be given to a pregnant woman only if clearly needed.
The safety and immunogenicity of FLUVIRIN® have not been established in children under 4 years of age.
The 1976 swine influenza vaccine was associated with an increased frequency of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). Evidence for a causal relation of GBS with subsequent vaccines prepared from other influenza viruses is unclear.
And of course, the list of other side effects is too long to list.
We have been conditioned to believe that the word "pandemic" is associated with mass death. This is untrue as it merely means mass illness – illness that we humans are more than adequately equipped to fend off without vaccination or running off to the emergency room for treatment of an illness that there is no treatment for. Once you have it there's nothing to do but let the body's natural immune system work to be rid of it.
And for those that don't like shots you can opt for the nasal vaccine, which contains live flu virus and warns you not to come in contact with anyone "immunocompromised" for 21 days.
Some known side effects of the Flumist…
Congenital, familial and genetic disorder: Exacerbation of symptoms of mitochondrial encephalomyopathy (Leigh syndrome).
Immune system disorders: Hypersensitivity reactions (including anaphylactic reaction, facial edema and urticaria)
Nervous system disorders: Guillain-Barré syndrome, Bell's Palsy
Respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal disorders: Epistaxis
Everyone I know have been advised by their own doctors not to take the flu vaccine. Most medical workers are refusing vaccination.
In 1976 more people died from the vaccine than the flu, but that doesn't stop our government from using fear and hype to give itself "extraordinary powers" once again.

Title: | Constitutional Torts and the New Mexico Torts Claims Act |
Author: | Kovnat, Ruth |
Abstract: | Two observations proceed from the recognition that the same conduct may be the basis for both a tort action and a civil rights action against the government. First, state efforts to protect their treasuries are undermined to the extent that federal law gives a right to damages for constitutional deprivations. Second, some confusion about the nature of the federal civil rights action is inevitable. In fact, a prominent feature of section 1983 litigation is the relationship between the federal remedy for constitutional deprivations and state law remedies that redress tortuous conduct. That relationship is the general subject of this article. |

Looking at the Steelers- Browns game
Looking at the Steelers- Browns game
December 11, 4:51 AM Pittsburgh Sports Examiner Matt Pawlikowski http://www.examiner.com/x-2703-Pitts...rs-Browns-game CLEVELAND - Hines Ward said it was embarrassing. Santonio Holmes said they were better prepared. Linebacker James Farrior said he doesnt have an answer for the Steelers not being able to close out games this year. Other players said it was unbelievable, Tackle Trai Essex said it hurts and Steeler coach Mike Tomlin said the team got beat in all three phases of the game. But Browns cornerback Mike Adams said it best. Now they get to think about what we did to them, Adams said. This was a playoff game for them and hopefully, we spoiled their dreams. If we arent going, then they arent going. Adams hit it right on the mark. Not only was the Steelers 13-6 loss to the Browns one of the worst in recent memory, it all but eliminated them from the playoff picture at 6-7. A month ago, they were sitting pretty at 6-2, but since a win over the Broncos, the team has lost to a 1 win team (Cleveland) a two win team (Kansas City) and a three win team (Oakland) and has spiraled on a five game losing streak its worst since the late 1990s We never give up, when backed into a corner and we never fold, tackle Max Starks said. A lot of teams could go in the tank and say its over were heading into the offseason, but I know this group we are going to keep fighting till Jan. 3. That may be the case, but unless the team can figure out how to conure up a win again, Jan. 4 can't come soon enough. NOTEBOOK: MAD DOCTOR- Each week the Steelers talk about heading back to the lab to fix things. Perhaps they need to find a Dr. Frankenstein because the lab they are using seems to be faulty and not working. We've found new and different ways to not rise up in critical situations," Tomlin said. So what is the cure? Tomlin promised change last week, much like President Obama, and much like Obama those changes have largely gone the wayside. The Steelers are in dire need of a leader at this juncture and Tomlin is inspirational. But from what the players said in the lockers tonight, instead of firing them up with there is still a chance ( the Cards were 9-7 last year and went to the Super Bowl, Tomlin told them they are playing the rest of the year for pride. WHERES THE PEOPLE? The Browns announced 69,009 tickets distributed for the game. A look around the stands though and it was more like 35,000 or so as Cleveland Browns Stadium looked like Lego land with all the empty orange seats. NOT SO SPECIAL TEAMS AGAIN - All season long it has plagued the team, and once again against the Browns it hurt them again. If not for a Daniel Sepulveda tackle the Josh Cribbs would have taken yet another punt to the yard against the Steelers. His return of 55 yards led to the Browns first points of the night and gave the Browns all the momentum they needed. Then there was this odd fact. Instead of having Stefan Logan field balls, Tomlin went with Mewelde Moore on a number of occasions. The result? Fumbles. PINNED DEEP When your best field position to start a drive is the 33 yard line, you are going to have trouble moving the ball. Its something the Browns managed to do all night against the Steelers. REEDs TOE For those that criticize the guy for not making tackles, for those who criticized him for missing a 53 yard field goal attempt against the Raiders, if there is one thing that can be said about the Steelers kicker, he is money in bad weather. As a matter of fact, if there was a bright spot in the loss to the Browns, it was him as the only Steeler points came off his toe. THIRD AND DONE You have two good runs to start off the game. It brings up a third and one. What do you do on a night when the winds are gusting to 40 mph, try the pass. The result a nine yard sack. So what do the Steelers do on its second series, this time a third-an- three the same thing. Rothlisberger back to pass then sacked. Then on third and seven, on the third series he was sacked yet again. In all during the first half, the Steelers were a big goose- egg when it came to third down conversions. We usually make our money at third downs, Santonio Holmes said. But I was surprised because hose guys threw everything but the kitchen sink at us today. They released six or eight defensive backs, they were blitzing differently than they were doing and did some things we hadnt seem in awhile. WHERES THE NO-HUDDLE? It proved successful for the Steelers early this season, but it disappeared from the playbook. Not once during the first three quarters did the Steelers utilize it. The muddle offense was also absent. Is it me, or is it everywhere Bruce Arians makes a stop in the league that he is trying to pad his resume with I can change the world. Note to BA. Its not working. The Browns stole a page from traditional Steeler football, and ran the ball down your throat and guess what? It worked. SACK ATTACK Nope, not the Steelers once vaunted defensive unit as one would expect. Instead it was the no name Browns who executed a great scheme from coordinator Rob Ryan. There were some different things that we saw from a protection perspective that we liked. Some of it was beating the protection and some of it was just great effort, Browns coach Eric Mangini said afterwards. With sacks, somebody mentioned earlier, often times thats also a function of the coverage and I thought those guys did a really nice job down the field staying with the receivers, not allowing Ben to go to his first read, forcing him to go come back to the other side of the field which then allowed the rush to develop. RUMOR MILL Should the Steelers decided not to re-sign Willie Parker, there was one Browns insider who said the Browns are interested in making a bid for him.

Re: Looking at the Steelers- Browns game
"So what is the cure? Tomlin promised change last week, much like President Obama, and much like Obama those changes have largely gone the wayside."
Is this an article or just someone sitting at home watching NFL Network and calling it journalism? Geez - does everyone have to express their politial agenda? Tomlin and Obama...laughable, but take the politics out. There is no magic wand that will make all better within this country in a year's time, and there is no magic wand that will save this season. In both cases, everyone has to do their part. In the case of the Steelers, they have to get their heart and their edge back. Something they lost when they lost to the Bengals the first time this year. So who were the saviors that should have been on the field last night? Limas Sweed? Burnett? Ziggy? I doubt it. Maybe you try to sprinkle them in, but if you are at pretty much your last possible chance at making a playoff run, you don't make wholesale changes to your lineup - especially on a short week. I would have liked to have maybe seen those done about two weeks ago. You'll probably see some of those guys in the next three weeks, and then we'll see what happens in the offseason. IMO - I don't think that it matters who signs Willie. When he leaves this team, it will be a downhill slide for him. |
