The American College of Cardiology Foundation and the Heart Rhythm Society, along with other key specialty societies, have released appropriate use criteria for implantable cardioverter-defibrillators and cardiac resynchronization therapy. The document is the first to incorporate the updated ACCF AUC methodology and provides assessed levels of appropriateness for implanting ICDs and CRTs in 369 real-life case scenarios, with the goal of enhancing physician and patient decision-making and improving care and health outcomes. "Appropriate use of ICDs has been garnering attention over the past few years, and this document helps address some of these concerns," said Mark Kremers, MD, FACC, FHRS, member of the writing committee and chair of the ICD Registry steering committee.

downhill fast by anselk on 09/10/2008funny (or maybe not)--but I've had the exact same experience as a couple of other reviews here. Namely, went to Disco Rex for fertility meds and other needs before Walgreens took over and they were fabulous-knowledgeable, friendly and attentive. Now, customer service is rude and extremely unhelpful and they lack any knowledge about what inventory they do and not have (I can walk up and down the aisle for 10 minutes looking for something just as good as they can--sheesh). I gave them a second chance after an awful experience b/c I liked them so much before, but they disappointed again, so convinced it was not just a bad day. Won't be going back--too many other pharmacies out there to deal with nonsense. In fact, I'll probably just go literally next door to Longs.
A Good Pharmacy GONE BAD by junehelen on 05/12/2008This used to be a great pharmacy for fertility meds at a reasonable price - with quick service and staff that had a great knowledge base. Since Walgreen's took over it is expensive, the new staff are useless and customer service is pretty terrible. After using this pharmacy for my meds for the past 5 years I am sorry to say that I no longer recommend it. Get your meds from the internet - it is cheaper and a lot less painful. \r (I also agree with the comment about the return policy .)
Change of Ownership to Walgreen's Lowered Customer Service by md94010 on 02/11/2008Disco Rex used to have a very generous return policy and is known as good retail location for dispensing fertility medications. They have changed their policy, even though they *haven't* lowered prices, and refused to honor prior return policy. They are 40% - 50% more expensive than online pharmacies, but don't offer this customer service to compensate. I won't go back!
Terrible Service by annestone32 on 12/13/2005Questions doctor's instructions and would not fill a perscription until the Dr called Disco-Rex again, even though it was a current perscription.

Do not make drastic changes to your hair color for your wedding. If you already color or highlight your hair, have it touched up a week before the day.
Arrange some quiet time for just you and your fiance during the wedding planning process. A romantic date or a weekend away will give you a break from the stress.
The colors you choose should go with the décor of your venue, or vice versa, to avoid clashing.

Web Video: ProJared
Screwattack member Jared Knabenbauer. On his channel "Pro Jared" (previously DM Jared, still used as the user link), Jared does 3 main shows:
"That's why my final rating for this article... is a strand of Fast Eddie's beard out of ten."
ProJared is a gaming review channel hosted, created and run by former - ProJared, the main show, is a show in which Jared reviews a game and plays it, giving a plot summary of the game he's playing and gives it a humorous take at it. These reviews are more for fun, usually featuring bad games and having humorous scores such as "A bucket of tears out of ten."
- One Minute Reviews, his second show, is where Jared is only given a minute to review a game, normally a modern game, and usually in a more serious light than ProJared reviews.
- Full reviews, in which he usually spends five to ten minutes more thoroughly reviewing games. These reviews are much more professional than the others, going in depth into the good and bad traits of a game.

Tropes in his main content:
- Actually Pretty Funny: Even though Jared spends most of his Two Worlds II review trashing the game, he admits at the end that he thought it was a decent game that actually had a few funny moments when its delves into Self-Parody.
- April Fools' Day: On April Fool's Day, 2015, Jared released a video named "Top Ten Boobs in Gaming". The video starts out by explaining that boobs are everywhere in gaming, and they're stupid, so Jared decides to count down the top ten dicks in gaming instead.
- Bad Boss: In "Animal Crossing New Leaf - Problem Solver" Jared plays a mayor who is too busy setting up pitfalls, fishing and hunting for butterflies to properly manage his town. He ultimately solves his problems by sending citizens gifts and letters.
- Broke the Rating Scale:
- His non-serious reviews always hand out a "Object relevant to the game/overall experience" out of 10.
- a 12 out of 10, and Sim City a "*Beep* it! I'm going to bed." Shows up occasionally in his One Minute Reviews. For example, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate gets
- Call Back: Jared searching for a fairy in a cluster of trees, picking the wrong one, and getting killed by a swarm of bees in Hydlide gets a Call Back in the Virtual Hydlide video when the exact same scenario happens.
- He also refers to the player character as "Portly Guy the Knight", a Call Back to "Jim the Knight" from the original Hydlide.
- The line "Fuck you nature." (also from Hydlide) gets a more enthusiastic Call Back when Jared starts chopping down trees in Final Fantasy Mystic Quest.
- Cluster F-Bomb: In his Nuzlocke of Pokémon FireRed Jared asks chat "how fucked would [he] be" if he entered a Gym with only four Pokemon. The crowd responds with "very fucked, super fucked, utterly and completely fucked, so fucking fucked, gee fucking gee" and so on.
- Cross Over: With PeanutButterGamer for Pocky & Rocky.
- Everything's Worse With BEEEEEES!: See Hydlide, Virtual Hydlide, and his list of "Top Ten Bees in Video Games".
- Flat "What.": Lets one out during Two Worlds upon learning that one of the main quest line characters is named Ho.
- Four Point Scale: Averted. Jared isn't afraid to give scores below a five out of ten to games he finds mediocre or bad. On the other hand, he also considers sevens and eights out of tens to be good scores and gives them to games he likes.
- Unlike some examples, though, he's not afraid about using the very top end of the scale, having given out several nines and two tens despite being a fairly new reviewer.
- He also makes the concession that his point-score of a game's quality doesn't necessarily map directly to entertainment value. Best demonstrated when he gave Project X Zone a 4/10 in a One Minute Review, but later uses it to pass time in his Haven And Hearth video.
- Gushing About Games Jared Likes: His One Minute Review of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate can be summed up as Jared trying to gush as much as he can in one minute or less, giving it a score of 12/10. His extended review released shortly after still has some gushing, but he was not afraid to acknowledge the game's flaws, giving it a "great but not perfect" score of 8/10.
- I Know Mortal Kombat: "First Person Soldiers" mocks this.
- It's Personal: Jared started the channel by posting a negative review of Two Worlds because he felt the game was massively over-hyped and horribly under-delivered, but somehow escaped any notoriety.
- Jump Scare: PeanutButterGamer of all people pulls one on Jared in Pocky & Rocky.
- Motor Mouth: Not usually, just when doing his One Minute Reviews.
- He does use it in a few other videos, usually to sum up something quickly, such as a chain of busywork quests in Two Worlds II.
- Nightmare Retardant: He created a guide to turn the game Slender into this.
- "Not Making This Up" Disclaimer:
- In his Two Worlds II video he adds one of these after stating that the developers of Two Worlds sent letters to game retailers apologising for how bad the first game was.
- The protagonist of Hydlide really is called "Jim the Knight".
- Offhand Backhand: Discovers he can pull this off in Blackthorne, much to his delight. With a friggin' automatic shotgun.
- Railroading/Plot Armor: Specifically complains about these in his Beyond: Two Souls review, stating that it's hard to care about winning QTEs when the protagonist will get out of it alive anyway.
- Refuge in Audacity: His April Fool's 2015 video, The Top 10 Best Boobs in Gaming, is really about the top 10 best dicks in gaming, and he shows all of the penises uncensored.
- Running Gag:
- Whenever an RPG has a "collect four treasures of the elements" plot ProJared says, as deadpan as possible, "Gee, an epic RPG where I have to collect four treasures of the elements? I've never heard that one before." And then he holds up a copy of Final Fantasy I for the NES.
- When he reviews Final Fantasy Mystic Quest, he starts to do the same gag, and then halfway through holding up the cartridge goes "WHOA WAIT A SECOND!"
- "Screw physics because video games!"
- Whenever an RPG has a "collect four treasures of the elements" plot ProJared says, as deadpan as possible, "Gee, an epic RPG where I have to collect four treasures of the elements? I've never heard that one before." And then he holds up a copy of Final Fantasy I for the NES.
- Self-Imposed Challenge: His "Ganondorf Challenge" for Super Smash Bros. Melee.
- Shaped Like Itself: His final score for Virtual Hydlide is a Hydlide out of 10.
- Sound Effect Bleep: Used every time he curses on his scripted videos. His non-scripted series usually leave them uncensored, and as of his SimAnt review he seems to have dropped it.
- Take That: In his One Minute Review of The Banner Saga, he says that the game is great, and then adds that one of the reasons you could buy it is because it'll "piss off everyone over at the Candy Crush Saga", referencing the fact that the games trademarked the words "Candy" and "Saga".
Tropes in his "Pokemon Nuzlocke" series:
- Alas, Poor Scrappy:
- In Fire Red, this is his reaction to Jeflump the Golbat dying.
"He wasn't my favorite, but I didn't want him to die."- Completely averted with Burden the Snorlax, whom he sends off with a cheerful "Bye!"
- Badass: Nuptup the Vileplume was one of his best pokemon in Fire Red. It even survives to the end, though this is primarily due to Jared not sending Nuptup out.
- Bittersweet Ending: Fire Red ends in his victory, but 2/3 of his then-current party died bringing him his victory. That's not counting the rest of his Pokemon who were KIA.
- Boss in Mook Clothing: Dark Cry spoilers follow. Lass Crissy, a trainer who in the original games couldn't be fought until the player could Surf. However, in this game, through careless placement or perhaps as a deliberate cruel joke, she can be fought as soon as the player reaches that route (i.e. hasn't even beaten Misty yet). Jared found this out the hard way when her lv31 Paras — about a dozen levels higher than his entire team — effortlessly made mincemeat out of Ekrah, Tarp, and Bidumb even after three Attack nerfs. Jared's Kadabra, Ubagub, just managed to pull through and win a hard-earned victory... only for Crissy to pull out a second Paras. It's almost merciful that he didn't last longer or he would have gone up against her final Pokemon, a lv31 PARASECT.
- Despair Event Horizon: Jared crosses it in Pokemon Y when Rathalos dies.
- Downer Ending:
- Pokemon Y ends with a premature game over.
- Dark Cry ends with Jared's team absolutely destroyed by Lass Crissy, a trainer who in the original game wasn't able to be fought until the player learnt Surf. Thanks to terrible programming, Jared faces her early, and it ends in absolute failure.
- Alpha Sapphire ends with a Total Party Kill against Winona's Altaria, he was unaware that it had Earthquake which lead to the death of Zimzy, and Cotton Guard which made Cordy's Rock moves wholly ineffective, which eventually led to no one in his party capable of damaging it enough given that it also knew Roost.
- Hope Spot: In episode 9 of Dark Cry, he finally takes down the level 31 Paras with his last remaining Pokémon! Except...
- Jared: Ohh, there's two more!
- Interface Spoiler: It didn't start this way, but each Fire Red video has a picture of the current team he is using as of each video. Newcomers to his series will pretty much know who dies and who lives if their eyes wander. He did seem to realize that this was the case, and put up pictures of the Elite Four and Champion for his final videos. Although even that spoils that he makes it to the end of the game.
- Kick the Dog: In Dark Cry Episode 7: After the massacre of his team in the previous episode, leaving him with three Pokemon left (after he picks up a Rattata), he hopes that he will be able to get another Pokemon through a hole in one of the houses. When he does so, the trainer he meets, whom wasn't even looking at him, kills Derlan, leaving him only with Bidumb and Tarp.
- Oh, Crap: Jared's reaction to Winona's Altaria knowing Earthquake, which in part resulted in a Total Party Kill ending his Nuzlocke.
- Rated M for Manly: Wepler the Cubone, for doing what no Pokemon before him has done (surviving a self destruct).
- Rescued from the Scrappy Heap: Invoked with Bidumb in Dark Cry: Jared quickly realises that he's not a Bidoof, but a Badass Zigzagoon. This gets taken further as the series progresses and he becomes an Action Survivor, and eventually, in Episode 7, he becomes one of Jared's two surviving Pokemon:Jared: Really starting to regret calling him "Bidumb" now. "Bidumb"? More like... "Bi-OnlyHopeIHaveForThisNuzlocke".
- Running Gag:
- One of the best (and probably his favorite) Pokemon on his team in Fire Red is a Vileplume named Nuptup. Each time he says Nuptup's name, he edits in a brief picture of Nuptup with its name below it.
- The Shorts Cult
- Self-Imposed Challenge: The main premise of his Nuzlocke series. In Pokemon Y, he added the rule of turning off the Exp. Share, as well as not using healing items in Battle.
- Series Mascot: Nuptup the soul-eating Vileplume has become this, by way of being an In-Universe Memetic Badass.
- Stupid Sacrifice/Senseless Sacrifice: In Episode 6 of Dark Cry, Jefina and Pachifetch's deaths could easily have been avoided.
- Alpha Sapphire spoilers follow: In Norman's gym battle, Jared mistook Retaliate for a Fighting-type move and so kept Cordy, his Graveler, on the bench when Cordy would have been in a great position to sweep Norman's whole team. This misunderstanding cost Jared his oldest two Pokemon, Ghim the Grovyle and Daybo the Dustox. (The latter is especially painful since Daybo took a few Retaliates throughout the fight, meaning Jared should've had the opportunity to notice that the game wasn't informing him "It's not very effective" as it would have if Retaliate were a Fighting move.) Needless to say, it's the most controversial episode of the playthrough so far.
- That One Boss: In-Universe, the innocent Com Mon known as Rattata (across many different trainers) during his Fire Red Nuzlocke managed to take out a startling number of his Pokemon.
- The Stinger: After the end of Jared's failed Pokemon Y Nuzlocke the screen fades the black, then shows an extra scene at the end, revealing that Dark Cry will be the next Nuzlocke series.
- This Is Unforgivable!: After Burden the Snorlax kills Oh,he, his first caught Pokémon in Fire Red, he caught it, but even then, he couldn't forgive him about the incident. Even after Burden died against Blackbelt Koichi's Hitmonchan, the parting words he had for him was: "I never forgave you!". This became prominent in Part 8 of the Pokemon Y Nuzlocke when he rejected his Route 7 capture and fainted a potential Snorlax he could have caught because of the event that happened in the Fire Red Nuzlocke.
- Took a Level in Badass: In Alpha Sapphire, Jared bemoaned catching a Plusle on route 110 (as an Electric-type, she was a welcome addition, but he would have preferred an Electrike). But the Plusle in question, Zimzy, proved instrumental against Wattson, whose Magnemite and Magneton she expertly baited into using inferior moves via Encore, laying out the path for Jared's other Pokemon to safely carry the day.
- Zimzy puts in another glorious performance against Norman, neutering his threats with Charm to the point that they could barely even scratch Rolic and Daybo after she finished with them, let alone Cordy. A damn Plusle is turning into the MVP of Jared's run.
- Wham Episode: The Guidjuk battle in Episode 6 of Dark Cry: Jared sacrifices Jefina to get an extra switch-out, and following that is a complete massacre: Fuhrdan is the next to go via Squirtle's water gun, Nokenil is killed in one hit, then Pachifetch is killed in his first turn in a useless attempt to get a critical hit, and Jared is only able to survive the battle by a Quick Attack from Derlin. In one battle, Jared went from six Pokemon to two.
- Wham Line:
- In Dark Cry Episode 9:Jared: Level thirty-one?!
- And Alpha Sapphire Episode 18Jared: EARTHQUAKE?!
- In Dark Cry Episode 9:
"That's why my final rating for this article... is a strand of Fast Eddie's beard out of ten."

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Bye, bye boomers
Smart organizations prepare for retirement onslaught
The baby-boomer exit is here.
So far, it's been somewhat innocuous, with rather quiet retirements of distant corporate executives. Lloyd Robertson, lead anchor of CTV evening news for instance, stepped down a couple of years ago with barely casting a ripple. Locally, many well-known entrepreneurs and organizational leaders have quietly passed the torch to up-and-coming leaders.
It was the recent announcement of a generational shift at ABC-TV that really got my attention. At 68, Diane Sawyer, the longtime, high-profile evening news anchor was replaced by a 40-year-old. As explanation, ABC executives reported a generational shift was necessary to appeal to younger audiences. Thus, by dubbing the evening news as "a vestige of another time," Diane Sawyer was painted with the same brush and sent off to do special projects.
In the real world, not many businesses can afford to have an up-and-coming leader working as an understudy, especially for a lengthy period -- it's just too expensive. The result is a loss of corporate knowledge within many organizations and the creation of a growing leadership gap.
Couple this with the fact leadership skills needed to take organizations into the future are different than today's technical skills and management style. The U.S.-based Center for Creative Leadership says collaboration is one of the key skills missing from future leaders. In their view, collaboration is becoming more important because of the demand to do more with less accompanied in a continually changing global marketplace.
These demands will see an increased use of cross-functional teams and interdepartmental reliance as well as project teams that span across different agencies and/or corporations. Whereas, this and other skills have already been found lacking in the marketplace, the most effective solution to the problem of a lack of skills is to begin aggressively assessing and developing current internal talent.
Few companies, private and/or corporate as well as not-for-profit organizations I've encountered, have conducted a study of their workforce. This valuable exercise enables employers to map demographics, identify the level of risk for retirements and/or employee exits and identify front-line workers with the potential for personal and professional growth. Once this survey is done, businesses can develop a plan to promote from within.
I have seen the success of this type of initiative both within my own firm and clients' firms. For instance, can you imagine the corporate value provided by a front-line manufacturing worker who was identified as high potential? With a combination of in-house training and support for university accreditation, within a few years, this individual was promoted to the senior management team and stayed with the firm for many years.
Let's look at how to foster a learning culture within an organization.
Conduct a workforce analysis: This strategy will enable the identification of employees at all levels of the organization who are eligible to retire, and enable you to plan for each risk. Use it to identify individual educational status and interests and assist you to put a succession plan in place. If your organization has a human resource information system, ensure the information is kept updated so a workforce analysis is no longer required annually.
Review and refine your retention strategy: Baby boomers are likely not to retire all at once, so you need a strategy that continues to engage those who stay. This can be accommodated through part-time and contract work, as well as coaching and mentoring with emerging leaders and/or through front-line teaching assignments for technical skills.
Apply leadership talent assessments: Internet technology makes it easy to apply a psychometric assessment tool to help emerging leaders understand their skills and areas of challenge. These assessment results should be used to develop career plans as described below. As well, the assessments help managers and business owners make decisions about the hiring, recruitment and training of potential emerging leaders.
Engage in career planning: A career plan can be made for every employee. Firstly, identify the skills and competencies required in each job and create a career map to demonstrate how a candidate can progress. Make these career maps public throughout the entire organization. Help employees see where their career might lead should they develop advanced skills. For those designated as emerging leaders, meet with them to develop a concrete plan for developing their skills. This can include formal training through rotation as well as inhouse training and university/college support.
Avoid the quick fix: Corporate leaders often think the best approach to leadership training is to send their employee to an intensive five- to 10-day learning program. However, in my experience, you'll find that shortly after being back to work, the program binders are sitting on a shelf. The individual is left without a coach and/or a program colleague with whom to test out assumptions and to try new strategies learned in the program.
Create, progressive development programming: Research has proven the best approach to learning is being able to apply one's newly learned skills at the earliest opportunity, accompanied by personal coaching and feedback. Programs that offer this approach are typically held every few weeks during a six-month period. While the programs can be delivered individually, the best approach is a group setting in which individuals can share personal experiences and success strategies and gain assistance on problems. Usually, this support group will exist long after the program is over.
Wise business owners avoid getting caught without the leadership skills and resources needed for success.

Silicon Valley 40 under 40: Sumit Agarwal
- Linda Taaffe
- Special Section/Focus Editor- Silicon Valley Business Journal
Sumit Agarwal
Co-founder, vice president of product/Shape Security
Age: 37
Born: Jabalpur, India
Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, Google and Barack Obama are among the names associated with Sumit Agarwal in the cyber world.
The entrepreneur recently co-founded Shape Security, a Kleiner Perkins-backed web security startup that is still in stealth mode. But prior to this venture, Agarwal was the first member of Google Inc.'s mobile group, where he helped grow revenue from zero to more than $400 million annually in under three years. He joined Google in 2003 as a product manager for AdWords, playing a key role in growing that business to more than $6 billion in annual revenue.
Google wasn't his starting place in the tech world. He began his career as a co-founder of Quova, a company that identified the geographical location of website visitors based on their IP address. He wrote the company's business plan and raised $25 million in funding. Quova was later acquired by Neustar (NYSE: NSR).
U.S. President Barack Obama recently appointed Agarwal as the U.S. Senior Advisor for Cyber Innovation at the Department of Defense, and prior to that, was Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense. He received the Global War on Terrorism Service Medal and the Director's Coin from the National Security Agency.

Details About Prince William and Kate's California Trip Revealed
Prince William and Kate Middleton will get a taste of California life in July when they follow their Canadian trip with a stay in the Golden State. Details of what the Royal Couple will be doing on their visit have been scarce -- until now.
According to PEOPLE, the couple's three-day trip will begin on Friday, July 8, with a Consular-General Reception on behalf of United Kingdom Trade and Investment.
The couple will use their West Coast trip to focus "on supporting British interest in California through the prism of their own interests," an official spokesperson from St. James's Palace said.
The next day, William will hit the polo field at the Santa Barbara Polo Club, where he'll play a match to benefit the American Friends of the Foundation of Prince William and Prince Harry.
Later that night, the couple will attend a black-tie dinner to spotlight "up and coming British talent" in downtown Los Angeles. The event, which benefits the British Academy of Film and Television Arts, will be followed by a reception at the Belasco Theatre.
Finally, on Sunday, Will and Kate will stop by the Inner-City Arts School, and will attend the 'Service Nation: Mission Serve' job fair for veterans in Culver City before heading back to the UK.
The trip will be Will's first "official" visit to the States, although he's visited before privately. However, this it will be a brand new experience for Kate, who has never been to the U.S.
Though their schedule seems pretty packed, it's been reported that many celebrities are hoping for the chance to meet the Royal Couple, who captured the country's attention when they were married in April.

Books: Nilsson: The Life of a Singer-Songwriter, by Alyn Shipton (2013)
Harry Nilsson is a legend to many musicians and connoisseurs of 1960s and '70s rock music, but an enigma to the mainstream listening public.
Harry Nilsson is a legend to many musicians and connoisseurs of 1960s and '70s rock music, but an enigma to the mainstream listening public.
Next in the Abbey Road medley is one of the Beatles' most beautiful yet mysterious tracks, "Sun King." In later years, John Lennon dismissed "Sun King" as "a piece of garbage I had around," but its lovely harmonies and mystical lyrics transform it into an entrancing listening experience.
If Greg Lake didn't already have an appreciation for the unique syncopations of the Beatles rhythm section, he certainly learned a thing or two while on tour with Ringo Starr and his All-Starr band.
Good Ol' Freda director Ryan White's documentary about the Beatles' loyal secretary Freda Kelly, has been a big hit at film festival screenings for the last few months.
So much of the modern history of the Beatles revolves around the twin songwriting genius of John Lennon and Paul McCartney, with George Harrison — and, particularly, Ringo Starr — often being all but ignored.
Deep Beatles' look at the Abbey Road medley continues with "You Never Give Me Your Money," an obvious nod to the group's legal and financial woes from their ill-fated venture Apple Corps.
The Beatles' 1963 Christmas recording makes the rounds of classic rock radio stations every holiday. The lads send Christmas cheer to fans around the world as they joke and sing bits of holiday carols.
For the next several columns, I will closely examine the legendary Abbey Road medley, their 16-minute magnum opus comprised of numerous song fragments. Where did these short works come from? How did they fit together so flawlessly?
The rumor goes back to the late 1960s, and centered in part on the cover of Abbey Road: Was the Beatles' Paul McCartney actually killed in a 1966 car crash and replaced by a look alike?
Amy Winehouse vet Mark Ronson's work on a forthcoming Paul McCartney studio effort, the former Beatle's first mainstream pop album as a solo artist since 2007's Memory Almost Full, has gotten all the headlines. The truth is, Ronson's one of several collaborators on the project.

Art Monk is lead plaintiff in another concussion lawsuit against the NFL
Washington Redskins Hall of Fame wide receiver Art Monk has joined the growing group of former NFL players to sue the league for allegedly failing to protect them against the impact of concussions suffered during their playing careers.
Monk, who spent 14 of his 16 pro seasons with the Redskins, is the lead plantiff in a suit filed last week in Los Angeles Superior Court.
Monk and 62 others also filed suit against helmet manufacturer Riddell, Inc. Monk suffers "short term memory loss, headaches and speech difficulties" as a result of concussions suffered during his career, according to his lawsuit.
The league responded in a written statement that it "has long made player safety a priority and continues to do so. Any allegation that the NFL intentionally sought to mislead players has no merit. It stands in contrast to the league's actions to better protect players and advance the science and medical understanding of the management and treatment of concussions."
A Riddell spokesperson said: "It's not appropriate to comment on pending litigation. We are confident in the integrity of our products and our ability to successfully defend our products against challenges."
Monk joins former teammate and quarterback Mark Rypien as the two highest-profile Redskins to file lawsuits against the league. Rypien was the lead plaintiff in a suit filed against the NFL in March.
Monk's group is represented by Girardi Keese, the firm that filed the first concussion-related lawsuit against the NFL in July of 2011.
More than 1,000 former NFL players have sued the NFL for failing to warn them of the risks of concussions and for not properly diagnosing the head injuries they suffered.
NFLConcussionLitigation.com – a site that tracks the legal proceedings – first reported Monk's involvement in the most recent lawsuit.
The suit alleges that "players who suffered concussions were told by the NFL and its agents not to be overly concerned, and were regularly returned to game action mere minutes after sustaining them."
Monk was inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame in 2008. During his 16 NFL seasons, he amassed 940 receptions for 12,721 yards and 68 touchdowns. The 888 receptions and 12,026 yards that he recorded as a Redskin are a franchise record.

Hedge fund GSA Capital Partners is none too pleased with a currency-trading platform it uses.
The London-based firm has stopped posting passive orders on Thomson Reuters' Reuters Matching platform, protesting what it said was a slap on the wrist for another user of the system. The skirmish boils down to another battle over high-frequency trading; GSA and other currency traders worry that high-frequency users are abusing the platform, and the hedge fund lays the blame squarely at Thomson Reuters' feet.
At issue is Thomson Reuters' brief suspension of Lucid Markets late last year. Lucid used multiple servers to get trading data ahead of competitors, which is against the rules, according to Thomson Reuters. Lucid said it broke no rules.
Either way, GSA isn't happy. "Thomson Reuters's failure to sanction the offender publicly has damaged confidence in the platform and in Thomson Reuters's ability to provide a level playing field for all participants," GSA said.
The fight puts Thomson Reuters in a tough place: between two of its biggest customers. GSA traded a notional US$15 trillion in currencies in 2011, The Wall Street Journal reports, while Lucid traded US$13.4 trillion that year.
