Walter Swift
On September 1, 1980, a pregnant woman playing with her infant child was sexually assaulted and robbed in her home in Indian Village, an historic district in Detroit, Michigan.
Semen samples were taken from the victim's bathrobe and bedspread and Detroit police detective Janice Nobliski interviewed the woman, who described her assailant as a thin man, about 15 to 18 years old and clean-shaven with hair fixed in braids and small poofs.
The victim looked through mug shots, pointing out seven different men with some features that resembled the rapist. Nobliski decided to hold a lineup using the next man the victim pointed out. That man was Walter Swift, who was 21 years old, had short hair, a full mustache and sideburns.
At the lineup, the woman selected Swift.
Nobliski thought the identification was weak, so she scheduled a polygraph for Swift and then went on vacation. When she returned, she learned the polygraph had been cancelled, Swift had been charged and she had been removed from the case.
At trial, the prosecutor told the jury that Swift had been identified after the victim viewed more than 500 mug shots. Swift presented evidence that at the time of the crime he was with a woman he was dating at the time. The woman had shopping receipts that corroborated her trial testimony.
On November 2, 1982, Swift was convicted of first-degree criminal sexual conduct and sentenced to serve 20 to 40 years.
Swift lost his appeals and in 1997 contacted the Innocence Project in New York. The physical evidence had been destroyed, so no DNA tests could be performed. However, Innocence Project investigators discovered that less-sophisticated testing used in 1982 had indicated that Swift was not the rapist.
An analyst who tested the semen determined that if the sample was predominately semen from the perpetrator, Swift could not have been the rapist based on his blood type. That analyst was never called to the stand at Swift's trial, and was stunned to learn later that Swift had been convicted.
The investigators also discovered that the victim had pointed out seven other men before selecting Swift—evidence that was never passed on to the prosecution or the defense.
Swift's court-appointed trial attorney, Lawrence R. Greene, failed to adequately pursue the identification procedure during the trial and did not present the exculpatory forensic evidence. Greene was later suspended from practicing law several times based on misconduct and inadequate representation in other cases.
A joint motion filed by the Innocence Project and the prosecution to vacate the conviction and dismiss the case was granted by Wayne County Circuit Judge Vera Massey-Jones on May 21, 2008. Swift filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the city of Detroit in 2010. The suit was settled in 2015 for $2.5 million

It was a Saturday afternoon and Alex (my best friend) and I were just hanging out at the house watching a movie. We had been spending a lot of time together because my husband (Mark) was always working, and so was Alex's fiancee (Chris). We have known each other for over 6 years, so we are of course very close. I had always been attracted to Alex, and so Mark. He had at one point told me that if he were to ever hook up with one my friends, it would be Alex. That naturally made me uncomfortable, always wondering if they would ever try anything if I wasn't there. Now here I am, finding myself with those very same thoughts that my husband once had. Secretly, I thought Chris was so hot, but I never said anything. I had always wondered what it would be like to be with another girl, but of course the fact that I was married kind of restricted my sexual exploration. You see, I am only 20 years old. Mark is the first and only guy that I have ever been with, and I was the first and only girl that he had been with. So, we never had a chance in the first place to explore our sexuality. This led to many thoughts and desires that probably would have been extinguished had we been with someone else besides each other. Little did I know that we would all to soon act on these pent up desires.
We were watching one of those movies that was an erotic thriller, "Sliver". While we were watching, there was one scene that scared the shit out of both of us, and we jumped and reached for each other at the same time. For a second our eyes met, then we both looked away awkwardly. What was that look in her eyes? Was it fear or excitement or curiosity? Was it all three? I went back to watching the movie, noticing that we were both still holding hands. My pussy immediately started to grow warm. Would it finally happen? I quited my thoughts and returned to the movie, with my pussy aching more and more. A little while later there was a really sexy scene and I felt Alex squeeze my hand. I looked over at her at noticed that she was looking directly at me. My eyes met hers; sparks flew and I froze. Our eyes locked and then slowly we leaned towards each other. By now my cunt was begging to be touched; it really needed some attention! When our lips almost touched we both paused for a moment ,and bathed in the warmth in each others breath that was so close to our lips. Then simaltaneously our lips met. I was so amazed at how soft her lips were, and I found myself enjoying her more than I ever thought I could. I never wanted that kiss to end. Slowly our lips parted and our tongues touched. I have always been told that I was a very good kisser. I could tell that Alex was starting to think the same thing. Our tongues slid and writhed around each other in the most erotic kiss that I have ever had. When our lips parted, I could tell that she was just as ready as I was to go further.
She reached over and ran her hand through my just below the shoulder length brown hair. She slowly twirled it between her fingers as I reached over and ran my finger along her lips. She opened them and invited my finger in. She instantly began to suck and nibble on it.
(I didn't want her to be sucking on my finger at this point!) I pulled my finger out of her mouth, and began to play with the bottom of her shirt. I slowly pulled it up over her head and saw that she wasn't wearing a bra. She has beautiful breasts, probably a 34B. My panties were growing wetter by the minute. Her soft pink nipples were already erect, waiting to be touched, and I was just the woman for the job. I leaned over and flicked my tongue across one of them, and she instantly got goosebumps. Now I definately knew she was ready, but was I? I had to be! I took pleasure in tantalizing her nipples, which she seemed to enjoy, too. I felt her hand start to creep up my thigh as she threw her head back in sheer pleasure. She must have heard my wet cunt calling to her, because it was screaming to me!! Since I was wearing jeans, I unbuttoned them so as to make her entrance as easy as possible because I wasn't about to waste any time. Within seconds, her hand was in my pants and feeling for my sweet spot. We gently moved down to the floor, to make the experience more comfortable for us both. We settled on the floor, with her hands still prodding around in my pants. By now, she had worked her way through my panties. Within seconds I felt one of her teasing fingers on my shaved pussy. It sent a shock through my body instanly. She parted my lips and began to fondle my clit. At this point she had me on the ground and was hovering over me. Her tits were right above my face and just barely out of reach. What a teasing bitch! As her fingers explored my dripping wet pussy, I leaned up and paid even more attention to her nipples. I began to nibble on them, and she really seemed to enjoy that because she let out a little moan. She really knew how to work those hands because I could feel myself getting ready to cum. I wasn't ready for that to happen yet, so I pulled her out of my pants and licked her fingers dry. I rolled her over on her back, so that I was leaning over her now. She pulled my shirt up over my head so quickly that it caught on one of my earrings. I yelped in pain. "I am so sorry!" she apologized. "It's okay, but I'll get you back." I responded. I leaned down to kiss her neck as she unbuttoned my bra revealing my natural 36D sized breasts. She was instantly captivated by them. Now I knew that men weren't the only ones who enjoyed big tits! She leaned up and started to suck and bite them, which made me even hotter than before. She worked her hands back towards my jeans and started pushing them down over my curvy hips and ass. I loved the feeling of her soft hands on my warm skin. She begged "Touch me." I replied "Not yet, you hurt me!" "You can't punish me like that, it's not fair. Not now!!" she retorted. "Your right…" I said, unable to resist her any longer; and began to kiss my way down to her hips. While I was doing so, Alex began to run her fingers through my hair as only a girl knows how to. I had finally reached her jeans. The moment that I had been waiting for. I would actually experience a woman's pussy for the first time! I slowly unbuttoned her jeans, so as to build suspense just a little bit more. I unzipped her jeans and pulled them down to reveal a black thong. It was very sexy, made of lace so that you could teasingly see through it. As I pulled off her pants, I noticed there was a wet spot where her cunt was on her jeans. She was just as wet as I was! Once I removed her jeans, I focused on her panties. I started to kiss around them, then grabbed on of the sides with my teeth. Slowly I pulled her panties down, revealing a sweet, shaved mound. Once I had them down far enough, I licked my way back up to her slit. I could smell the sweet smell of her excitement as my tongue explored the perimeter of her womanhood. Suddenly, the door opened and there stood Mark and Chris!! They froze instantly….
No Responses to "Best friends..or more??? Part 1"

Bike charity

Bike charityHi all,
I am looking to volunteer my time to help fix up bikes for the needy. Do any of you know of an organization? Cheers Thomas
Re: Bike charityDrop into your local Vinnies or Salvos Thomas and explain what's on your mind, I've done a few for Vinnies.
Shaun ...whatever the road rules, self-preservation is the absolute priority for a cyclist when mixing it with motorised traffic.
London Boy 29/12/2011
Re: Bike charityThere's a bike recycle joint at ANU, down near the National Museum. It's a kind of sheltered workshop set up as far as I can figure out. The do up old bikes and sell 'em, though I'm not sure where the cash goes.
Re: Bike charityThe recyclery is a business. The money goes back into there pocket, not to a charity.
To the original poster: Why not start something? Get old bike, service them and then give them to the needy.
Re: Bike charity
Good to know and that fits with the vibe I'd gotten when I'd gone there. It struck me as bit of an odd place.
Re: Bike charityThanks for the replies. Certainly given me some ideas. I might drop pedalpower an email.
There might already be some sort of group doing this.
Re: Bike charityThere was a community group asking for donations of bikes on the southside. My partner thinks it may have been Southside COmmunity Centre or something like that. The had an ad in the southside chronicle or something. They may appreciate a free bike mech.
As for Recyclery, it is hardly a lucrative business. Yes it needs to turn a profit to survive, but they do a lot of work with people with disabilities. But, no, it isnt a charity.
Re: Bike charityIf you're decent on maintenance, the Fitability tandems may want some assistance with maintenance. The tandems are used by visually impaired cyclists, If you're interested in doing some maintenance or would like to get involved as a pilot for a visually impaired stoker drop me a PM and I can put you in contact.

Re: Bike charityGday Thomas
Good on you for wanting to lend a hand. Heres another option/idea for you to look into http://hobartbikekitchen.org/ Thats a local group here in Hobart but im guessing there must be something like that in your area? Another tip might be to check out your local critical/courteous mass rides. They are a good place to network as they attract the pro-active types. And of course your local Lyons/Apex/Community clubs, if they dont run a program themselves theres a fair chance they will know who does. Good luck with it mate, I hope you find something that fits. cheers Baldy

The lilac one has just had a pretty major overhaul by Ian Downing.
Re: Bike charityHowdy Pilgrims,
HA! Glad I searched first, someone else has usually asked the question first I am also looking to do some repair work for charity, did anyone find any (or know of any) groups around the Belconnen area?
Re: Bike charityYehuwdiy,
I'm in the Belconnen area too. If you find any I'm happy to give a hand
Re: Bike charityHowdy LoveB,
I'll be phoning/ visiting a few opshops etc today. There is one in particulary where I have gotten to know the old ladies behind the counter pretty well. I'll see what I can dig up and shall report back!
Re: Bike charityWell, drawing a blank so far, will keep trying though. Responses seem to vary from, "We don't get bikes donated" through to, "As long as the tyres stay up we don't care."
Who would have thought it was so hard to give your time away?
Re: Bike charityIf I knew where to get free bikes I wouldnt mind doing it at home. Although that would probably anger the gf as I dont really have that big a space to work on bikes here
Re: Bike charityYou know what LoveB, I've had that exact same idea. We are renting here in Canberra and alas no garage (at all...WTH...seriously). I wouldn't mind kicking in the cash to get a bike back on the road. I did it a little bit in Brisbane, gave the bikes to local migrant communities. They loved them, rode them every day as primary transport and looked after them.
Perhaps something will surface, fingers crossed
Re: Bike charityI did my finacees bike resto on the balcony. Paint and all. lol
If you end up doing work at your place I can come over and helps. Beats doing nothing. Or I can do some work here then bring it onto you sort of thing. And if I make spare cash I dont mind chipping in too!
Re: Bike charityHave a look at the work the Hobart Bike Kitchen has been doing. They may have links too
Re: Bike charityOk, after having no luck with local charities I have decided to take things into my own hands. While in Brisbane a fixed up a few old clunkers and gave them to a local migrant/ refugee community. This worked well and the people who received them valued them. Everything was done at my pace, so there was no stress or timelines involved. My system worked something like this:
1. Fix old bikes to give away 2. Give bikes to those who need them as a primary mode of transport (i.e. can't afford to by own or car etc.) 3. Provide mechanical assistance to said people 4. If circumstances change and the bike is no longer needed, it is returned to the 'pool'. 5. Any rare/ collectable parts that came up were sold (usually fleabay) to pay for ongoing costs. With regard to point 5 above, it is surprising how much you can spend on cables, housing, grease, bearings and brake pads. Thus the somewhat mercenary approach to this one point. This worked well with one exception, maintenance over distance. Brisbane is a big place and driving around to donate/ pick-up/ fix bikes got to be very expensive. Canberra, although not so big, is still big enough to make this an issue. The other day I was cogitating on this and realised that if there were a number of people across Canberra, who are from the forums, this may not be in issue. All requests could be funnelled off to the most appropriate person. So, I'm putting out a request for the names and suburbs of anyone who is interested in helping. Once we have this list we can start looking for suitable recipients. If you are interested please post or pm me with your details, I shall then add them to the list below. Volunteers Belconnen - Dunlop - Yehuwdiy
Re: Bike charityyou know I'm down for that!
Belconnen - loveb/paul
Re: Bike charityI have not checked my post of late, but yeah count me in, I am in Gungahlin.
Re: Bike charityIf this is up and running i have two childrens bikes cobwebby but basically in pretty good nick. Would hate to throw them out one was very $$$$
Re: Bike charityHi, it is kind of running. Everything is on hold until my new shed is built early in the new year. We have completed and donated a few bikes, btu have had to let many mroe go because of a lack of room. I'd be interested in the bikes, but in the new year. Not sure if you need to clean out the space now though!
Re: Bike charityNo i can wait if you like, just let me know.

Good job telling everyone how to do it Darth Ovori. Hasbro had similar problems with the last poll, and did a manual recounting of the poll. So if they notice to much funky voting the same will happen this time. People loaded the ballot box for that darn Twi'Lek Massuese. Some people just have no ethics.

No worries Darth Ovori, it's just that not everyone knows how to do it, and it's best that it stays that way. It wasn't an attack at you, but there was a major uproar during the last Fan Choice poll over people cheat voting, and I am praying that it doesn't happen again.

I understand your position since your figure choice is leading...
But if I know of people already having done it, I'm sure the horror as already been done...

Even if I knew how to flood the poll, Hasbro would get a little suspicious if my choice for FanFig4 went from last place up to first place. So there would be no point.
In fact, this is the first poll that the figure I wanted not only didn't win but is probably the least wanted of the figures.
"To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." - C.S. Lewis
I thought that everybody knew how to "cheat" online polls. I suppose enough "bad apples" do to make a difference.
Darth Ovari, PM me directions so that I can ensure victory for the dignitary.
Many thanks!
During one of the previous Fan Choice polls, I slammed the lower-voted figures with votes because it was so vulnerable after we contacted Hasbro and told them of this hole. We were told that the poll itself would have IP-address matching or something to that effect so the final counts would be accurate, even if the displayed ones weren't. I can't verify that they were honest about that, but when someone else slammed another figure over Amanaman in the last day of the poll, Amanaman ended up winning anyway.
Darth Vader is becoming the Mickey Mouse of Star Wars.
"In Brooklyn, a castle, is where dwell I"
The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.
Probably because it's all a facade and a charade and a virago of a sham of a debacle of a pointless exercise, as I truly believe that Hasbro has already decided which will win before the voting started. Hasbro saying that the final tally will be counted by single IP address entries rather than the floods of votes by individuals gives Hasbro carte blanche to rig the vote any which way they want and say that somoene was rigging the votes artificially and those votes were disqualified.
Hasbro has no doubt already done the basic designs for all of these figures anyway. If they were working on Aayla Secura for next year at C2 then they work a long time in advance of production and it's fair to assume that the basic sculpt of the real 'winner' of the poll is already done.
Not that I'm consumed with conspiracy theories or anything...

Wait, theres a new Fan Choice Poll? Jeez, I'm out of it for a little while, everyone gets delusions of new figures. Who are the choices? Nevermind, I'll go look.


text: GREENFIELD, Mass. (AP) – Nurses at Greenfield's Baystate Franklin Medical Center have ratified a new contract after a sometimes acrimonious 29-month labor standoff with the hospital. The contract was unanimously approved on Thursday. The five-year contract will cover the past two years and extend through Dec. 31, 2016. It includes a compromise on overtime pay, the issue that had kept nurses and hospital leaders from reaching a deal earlier. Under the deal brokered last week by state lawmakers, the hospital will pay nurses standard pay for up to one hour after the end of a scheduled shift. A nurse who works beyond the one-hour grace period will automatically earn time-and-a-half pay for overtime hours. Hospital officials say it will save them about $65,000 per year.

April 25, 2012 at 8:26 pm 8 comments
I learned an important lesson over the weekend. Do not go to the grocery while you are stressed out.
You've heard about the whole "don't go to the grocery store when you're hungry" thing, right? Stress shopping is its psychological counterpart and is equally devastating to the wallet.
What I'm trying to say is that I came home from Trader Joe's this weekend having spent about 25% more than my weekly haul usually costs me. I actually consider that an accomplishment given the crazed mental state that I was in.
As it turned out, I didn't actually do too badly. I bought some extra lean protein, a bag of edamame crackers (which are excellent, by the way), and this bad boy:
I don't buy avocados very often. Maybe it's because I am usually cooking for myself and can very easily inhale one all on my lonesone in a single sitting. Maybe it's because they always seem to be the most expensive produce item in the store. Maybe it's because they often become a vehicle for far too many chips to pass through my lips.
Regardless, in my weakened state I caved and bought this beauty and waited four whole days for it to ripen.
Given the amount of patience I bestowed on my avocado, I decided that merely smashing it into guacamole wouldn't do. Oh no, this avocado was destined for greater things.
Strawberry Avocado Pico de Gallo
serves 2
1/2 ripe avocado
5 ripe strawberries, diced
1/8 cup onion, finely diced
1/8-1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
salt, to taste
squeeze of fresh lime juice
1. Cut crosshatches in the flesh of the avocado and scoop into a bowl with a spoon.
2. Combine with remaining ingredients and serve immediately.
I added shrimp to mine and had a nice little ceviche-style dish with a side of blue corn tortilla chips.
You could (and should) also add some jalapeno to this for some heat, but I tragically neglected to pick one up during my free-for-all.
I told you stress can have serious consequences.

I'm sorry to hear about the stress – hope that you're feeling better now! I have definitely had a stress shopping spree a few (read: many) times in my history. I usually end up with some sort of dessert or an extra bottle of wine.
On the plus side, that recipe sounds amazing! Never would have thought to combine avocado and strawberries, but it looks great with the shrimp.
Avocado instead of ice cream when you're stressed? This is news to me!
And I'll agree with the buying of the avocado. Once you cut in, it just seems like they go bad so quickly! So then it's just a matter of "maybe I'll just eat the whole thing now… " Probably the reason why I first skim menus for guac or avocado included in sandwiches and such…
Sounds like an interesting idea. I'm usually rather standard in my choice of chip dips, so I may have to mix things up and try this out.
Stress always leads to some sort of money outflux for me. Groceries are probably a pretty reasonable place for it to happen. I hope the stress gets better!
True, at least I got some healthy stuff!
I'm horrible for stress shopping. Usually I'm super tight with my money, and hate spending it on anything at all, but when I'm stressed I go crazy. It's weird.
It makes sense right? You are stressed so you buy stuff that will calm you down. And don't be too hard on yourself…it's not like you bought some Louboutin's right? :)
Absolutely- it could have been far worse. :)

Taylor's 7 Success Secrets
Taylor Swift's new album, Speak Now, released in late October to huge acclaim from critics and audiences alike, sold just over 1 million copies in the first week, catapulting the 21-year-old star even higher into the stratosphere.
Last year, Swift, was the bestselling musician in the United States, according to Neilsen Soundscan, and Forbes Magazine ranked her the 12th most powerful celebrity, citing her annual earnings of $48 million. Swift's first self-titled album was released in 2006 and went multiplatinum, setting the tone for what would become the then-16-year-old's trademark: Disarmingly autobiographical songs that resonate across age and gender. Her follow-up, Fearless, released in 2008, also sold millions and won four Grammies.
4 Medications That Can Cause or Worsen Incontinence
If you are showing signs of urinary incontinence or if your incontinence problem seems to be getting worse, take stock of your medicine cabinet. Not for a new remedy, but to find overlooked causes of incontinence, or the explanation for your worsening symptoms. Commonly recommended medications could be the cause of your incontinence, or at least contributing to them. Medications affect people differently, so one person with incontinence may not notice worsening symptoms, while another person does...

Yet for all her success, Swift remains down to earth and relies on her normalcy to connect with her audience. She gives voices to girl-next-door feelings about crushes, heartache, and troubled friendships that resonate with tens of millions of fans across the country.
So how does this young woman keep her feet on the ground, especially when they are so often walking the red carpet in Manolo Blahniks?
By being grateful, Swift says. "I remember dreaming about the possibility that if I worked really hard and things went miraculously well, some day people would care about what I had to say," she says, "And I've never let go of that feeling. The fact that people care about my lyrics is so incredible to me."
Despite her pressure-filled life with non-stop action and living on the road, here are Swift's six rules for living healthy and balanced:
- Honor your healthy routine. "Health is a big part of being happy," says Swift, who is committed to keeping herself in great shape physically and mentally even when she's touring. Because her life is so busy, Swift knows that staying disciplined about how she eats is crucial to her well-being. While this lanky, 5-feet-11-inch star doesn't need to watch her weight, she says she still pays attention to what she puts in her body. And regardless of her tour schedule, she makes sure to squeeze in an hour-long run on a treadmill every day.
- Reward yourself. Work for your indulgences, and then enjoy! "I have a need to feel like I've earned things, so when I have a week of working really hard, I get to have a day or two off, whether it's from exercise or watching what I eat," says Swift.
- Skip the judgment. When it comes to diet and working out, Swift is watchful rather than self-chastising. "I keep an internal gauge of whether it's been a healthy week or not," says Swift. Then, she makes adjustments instead of beating herself up. "During the week, I try to eat healthily, so that means salads, yogurt, and sandwiches," she says. "No sugary drinks. I try to keep it lighter, but it's nothing too regimented or crazy. I don't like to create too many rules where I don't need them."
- Water it down. "I drink so much water my friends call me an alien," says Swift, who always carries a bottle with her. Just to make sure she's never short, the singer keeps a case in her car.
- Find your rhythm. To make sure you stick to your fitness plan and power up your workout routine, download favorite songs or albums that you don't let yourself listen to until you're in motion. "I don't like any other kind of exercise except for running," Swift says, "And I love that because it's about the music."
- Don't flee your feelings. Recognize that anxiety's not inherently bad. It's uncomfortable while it's happening, but it can also propel you out of a rut and inspire you. "It's awful to sit there feeling that way" -- at first, says Swift, "But if you can, it can also lead to something that takes you out of that feeling and into something creative."
- Keep a journal. Putting words on paper helps songwriter Swift keep herself honest -- and balanced, she says. "From a young age, any time I would feel pain I would think, 'It's OK, I can write about this after school,'" she says. "And still, anytime something hurts, like rejection or sadness or loneliness, or I feel joy or I fall in love, I ask myself, 'Can I write a song about this so I know how I feel?'"

Open letter to my son
As you approach your fifth birthday and enter your last year of preschool, I can't help but think you're growing up too fast. I guess thats the trend these days with all this twerking business, but that's a conversation for another day.
As a father, there's something special about having a son. Of course I love your sisters as much as you, but its different. They are my princesses. You, on the other hand, are my son. And theres something intrinsic and almost primal about having a son. Its hard to explain, but maybe someday, if you are lucky enough to have your own family, you too will feel the same way.

Join our ESPN.com NFL experts for "Monday Night Football" between the Minnesota Vikings and the New York Giants.Contribute your thoughts and questions beginning at 8:30 p.
Part two of my weekly attempt to answer those New York Giants Twitter questions you remembered to hashtag #nygmail.
Team might be deciding between a pass-rusher and an offensive lineman in the first round.
Only one team in the common draft era (1967) has taken a wide receiver in the top 15 in back to back drafts.
Promise Amukamara was an all-Pac 12 guard this past season for Arizona State.
Need picks in the first two rounds and an upside defensive playmaker in the third. A very Giant-like way to go.
Mel Kiper Jr. plays GM for all 32 NFL teams, making his optimal picks for the first three rounds of the 2015 NFL draft -- 99 picks in total.
An examination of the Giants' wide receiver depth chart with 15 days left until the NFL draft:
ESPN Giants reporter Dan Graziano says the team would be wise to stay put and find a difference-maker with the ninth overall pick, the way the Giants did last year when they took Odell Beckham Jr.
The New York Giants agreed to terms with free agent safety Josh Gordy, who gives the Giants a strong safety with NFL starting experience.
The No. 40 draft pick is one on which the Giants likely are spending just as much time as they are on the No. 9 pick, because it's almost as important.
The Royals have yet to lose this season
The selection of Ron Dayne 11th overall in 2000 gets one writer's vote.
Insider takes a look at the biggest roster needs and top prospect targets for the Giants entering the 2015 draft, and includes predictions on how draft night could play out.
The team could use at least one upgrade in its starting lineup, and its first-round pick could provide the remedy.
The Giants Twitter mailbag looks at the team's lack of depth and how it affects their special teams.

nutrient solution have to be specifically for hydro This is all very new to me and I have a couple of questions. just wondering does the nutrient solution have to be specifically for hydro or can i go to a regular garden supply store and get some basic fertilizer? If so how do you mix it up? Just follow the directions or is there a special formula? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks |
| |||
Dirt fertilizer is not recommended for hydro beginners because it is missing some ingredients like calcium nitrate which I do sell for the die hards that are dead set on using Miracle Gro. Stick to real hydro food and that's one less thing you will have to worry about. |

Adventure is my middle name....
Trip Start
Jun 06, 2009
Trip End
Dec 01, 2009
Where I stayed
My Place
With that being said, I am scared. I don't know what the future holds and as a card-carrying control freak, this time, I fear the unknown. Those of you, who know me, know I fear nothing. I boldly step into the unknown with chin raised and cautious eyes, but I can't help it this time. My brother reminded me the other day, that every few years I do something drastic that changes my character and is thought of, at the time, as the hardest thing I've ever done.Well, here we go. I might be making the majority of this trip on my own; but I Will hopefully find comfort knowing you will be with me on my adventures.
First, forgive me. Forgive my writing. Forgive my absence. Forgive the inevitable week that will pass before a new blog entry. Second, I will do my best to keep an accurate log of my journey, but surprisingly, my memory has never been stellar,so enjoy what I can remember of the days. Lastly, I will return. I might not love the city of Atlanta but the people who live there I cherish above all else. To my students: Have a great summer and practice! To my friends and family: Keep in touch and don't waste my mobile minutes. Emails, text, Facebook and Skype are preferred. Thank you.
First stop: Bonaroo!
