Rated 4.7 out of 5�by 17 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5�by Golflover1 Better than a high priced putter! Went to dicks tried out many putters picked this putter up took 4 shots and made all 4. I was sold. I found this putter to be better than most all of the high price putters on display. The grip on the putter is very nice super soft. Will never ever get rid of this putter. October 12, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by cheap squeek putter So, I spent about twenty-five minutes at Dick's and practiced putting with every putter on display. For me, the putts went straight with this putter and one that cost $234.00. When I looked at the price tag, I got sticker shock,only $29.99; what a deal. April 29, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by scrappy geat feel and balance feel like it has enhanced my putting accuracy beyond my expectations. April 29, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by mark60 Inexpensive but nice The Top Flite putter was purchased based on design & price. After using it I found the ball had great action off the head. It seems to be easier to keep the head square with the ball. April 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Sarge As good as more expensive putters Great feel, easy allignment, I would highly recommend this putter. I have used more expensive putters, this compares very nicely to them. The cost is just an additional bonus. June 10, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by budd 4 Very good starter putter. I have tried many putter and this one is light and easy to use. June 3, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by pwill good putter For the price and feel, this is a good buy. I had it really good buy. I had it re-griped there and I have increased my putting game on the greens May 14, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by KORG A helpful tool So far, so good! Went with the large head hoping to keep swing more in line with the target. This seems to work. The additional weight will take some time to master for distance, but that's just practice. May 6, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by T South Putts Smoothly Very nice putter, has great control. Highly recommend April 30, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5�by BrianG Too early t tell! Haven't had it on the golf course, yet! Hopefully only a couple of weeks away, so my review rating is based on the level of attention I was shown by your staff and the quality of the modifications that I had done. What little I was able to try it out in the store, it looks like I've got a good chance of dropping some strokes!!! April 3, 2014

Orioles outfielder Marty Cordova will undergo surgery to remove bone chips in his right elbow, a procedure that's expected to keep him out for the next six to eight weeks.
Cordova was batting .233 with one home run in nine games. His place on the roster was taken by infielder Jose Leon, who started at third base last night after being recalled from Triple-A Ottawa.

Self-motivatedFolden grew up in Ryder, N.D., about 30 miles northwest of Garrison. He worked for farmers through high school and after. This is Folden's sixth season with Garrison co-op, which is an affiliate of CHS Inc.
By: Mikkel Pates, Agweek
GARRISON, N.D. — Paul Folden personally sprayed about 106,000 acres as a commercial applicator for Garrison (N.D.) Farmers Elevator in 2012. It was the third year he surpassed 100,000 acres, and he expects to do more in the future.
Folden, 44, was nominated for the Agco Application Equipment Operator of the Year award by Garrison Farmers Elevator, and became one of four national finalists. He already has nearly 30,000 acres sprayed this year — a lot for a wet year.
But don't make the mistake of hinting to Folden that he might not have a fourth 100,000-acre year in a row.
"In a way, it's kind of a big game for me," Folden says, with a smile. "You tell me I can't do 100,000 acres this year? Watch me."
A history on the farm
Folden grew up in Ryder, N.D., about 30 miles northwest of Garrison. He worked for farmers through high school and after. This is Folden's sixth season with Garrison co-op, which is an affiliate of CHS Inc.
When he started at the co-op, the applicators were happy to get 55,000 acres applied in a year.
"The first year I was here, I ran 58,000 acres with a little RoGator 854 with a 90-foot boom — a little 'Tinkertoy' compared to what I've got now," he says. "And I 'roaded' it everywhere. Now I have a semi-trailer" to haul the larger sprayers from job to job."
He applied 120,000 acres in 2011, which was an unusually late season, and 108,000 in 2012. Asked how many thousands of acres he thinks are possible to handle in one year, Folden pauses to think, before answering. "150?" he says. "That's given the right year — an early spring and a late fall, the best-case scenario."
In 2011, he was putting pre-emergence herbicides down at the end of March and he sprayed until the third week in November. "That's a big year," he says.
In 2013, he started putting dry fertilizer down around April 1, but didn't' start spraying until the second week in May. Actual spraying is where he gets the bulk of his acres, because that goes throughout the summer. He can do more acres in a day with a sprayer than applying dry fertilizer. "The machines are bigger and you're not stopping to fill all the time," he says.
Laid-back, competitive
Despite an aggressive work schedule, Folden describes himself as "somewhat laid-back." He says when a schedule is on the line, however, he has high expectations for equipment and systems.
"When things are on the line, stuff better work," he says.
Folden says he pushes himself hard and wants to get everything done. "It's gotten to the point where we're growing so fast here, the acres are there. If I could spray 24 hours a day, seven days a week, there's work there for somebody to do that."
"He goes above and beyond to make sure customers get the value they pay for," says Chris Gratton, the Garrison co-op's manager, who submitted Folden's nomination.
Bad weather can increase custom application demand because farmers don't have time to do their own spraying. "There's still guys out here who are trying to seed," Folden said May 31, but on June 5, he said some may decide to abandon some acres.
"You may have a three- or four-day window when things have to be sprayed, or you might want to put a pre-emergence application before it comes up, and [farmers] just don't have the time to get all of it covered. They hire us to do a part of it, or sometimes all of it," he says. "Year to year, it's always different."
It's always different
Typically, Folden's routine in a year is to start with dry fertilizer, either on winter wheat or corn ground before the crop is planted. Eventually, he starts spraying. He might go out in the morning when it's cold, apply fertilizer until noon and when it warms up, he'll jump into a sprayer and spray until 7 or 8 p.m.
"Right now, I'm pretty much in the sprayer full-time," Folden says. The spraying job is trickier, requiring more concentration to ensure coverage and prevent drift. Sprayers are bigger machines with 120-foot booms, 30 inches off the ground, compared with floaters,which are 70 feet wide and 5 feet off the ground.
"There's a lot more going on that you have to think about with a sprayer," he says. "But when you spend so much time with it, it becomes second-nature."
Half and half
Farmers with winter wheat might apply half their fertilizer in the fall and the other half in the spring. "Where we ran into problems last year, it was so dry that nobody sprayed," Folden says. "Nothing was growing. But now this spring, with the moisture, everything just took off. All the weeds just laid there, laid there. Now, they're coming big-time and everybody's having us spray big-time."
The commercial applicator finalists were honored guests of Agco at the annual 2012 Agricultural Retailers Association Conference and Expo in San Diego in late November. Carl Peterson of Crop Production Services in Pipestone, Minn., was another finalist from the region. Still another finalist — Glen Slabaugh of Leesburg, Ind., got the top award and won a Harley Davidson.
The Agco award is based on spraying prowess, but also on community involvement. Until the early 1990s, Folden was a McLean County, N.D., deputy sheriff and also served on a local fire department in Garrison. A former professional fishing guiding on Lake Sakakawea, he also helped start the North Dakota Junior Governor's Cup, a kids' fishing derby for a community fundraiser.
He says it's different from law enforcement, which he says is less predictable. "Here, I know what I'm getting into," Folden says. It takes long hours to get everything done. The only secret to it is, "Go, go, go, go. Go."
Ag retailers will be able to nominate their custom applicators starting late this summer, according to Agco. Folden would be eligible to be nominated again in 2013.
"It's nice to know that people are paying attention," Folden says. "I can drive myself, can motivate myself, but something like that helps. I know this year the event is in Miami. I want to go to Miami."

wow your brush style just got wayyy more harmony through the whole image in the last several posts...sometimes people overuse a specific brush or throw too much detail without it feeling natural, but the landscapes of recent are workin so well. You really picked some amazing cloud studies as well.
Its not a big deal, but I think you could size down some of the images (thinking of portraits) as they don't need to be larger than my giant resolution can handle
absolutely love the last portrait, man with white hat. I would say the beard feels slightly cloudy to keep up with the realism in the rest of the piece. It really is an amazing piece - must have loved the photo the minute you saw it?

Great studies!! Some things i picked up while reading Andrew loomis Creative illustrations: Shadow makes the form and color appears most vibrant near the areas of light. When as in shadow - color loses its brilliancy. Also Pure blacks seldom appear in nature. Hope you get something out of those brief annotations, But really great Studies, Keep it up

Rory McIlroy and Paul Casey can flourish at the BMW Masters, says Rob Lee
Rob Lee is backing British duo Rory McIlroy and Paul Casey to make their mark at the BMW Masters.
Last Updated: 31/10/12 10:17am
The pursuit for finding the best way you operate is an on-going one and I think Rory will continue to tinker with his schedule - take breaks before Majors, play right up to Majors - until he finds the perfect formula for him.
Rory will, as always these days, be the bookies' favourite for this week's BMW Masters in Shanghai, in which he is the defending champion, and rather than weigh him down, I think that pressure fires him up.
As world number one he is a target and knows he has to keep playing well - winning events, recording top-10 finishes - to ensure that Tiger Woods, Lee Westwood, Luke Donald et al cannot get past him.
The Ulsterman will have extra motivation in China, too, as he aims to extend his near half-a-million Euro lead over Justin Rose in the Race to Dubai standings in his quest to top the money list on both sides of the Atlantic.
Rory has a wonderful record in Asia; he has finished no lower than sixth in his previous eight European Tour events in the continent, and won the 2011 Hong Kong Open on his last trip there.
That triumph in December was a turning point for McIlroy; it was where he learnt to win dirty.
He played poorly on the Saturday but managed to hang in there and limit the damage. Then, on the Sunday, he got the job done in style when he holed a bunker shot on the last hole.
Since then he has cruised to victories, most notably at this year's US PGA Championship, which he won by eight strokes.
Rory will be a big factor at Lake Malaren, but I think Paul Casey can be, too. The Englishman finished fifth in the Perth International last week and I think things will all come together for him soon. I would definitely place a bet on him to make the next Ryder Cup.
The 35-year-old was playing well before he suffered a shoulder injury snowboarding last winter and if he can cut out the silly things like that, he should flourish. These are his prime years and he should make full use of them.
Casey has been as high as number three in the world rankings and if he is fully fit I think he should be looking at getting back there and he could be the first one of this talented English bunch to win a Major.
Bo van Pelt took the Perth International title and this week returns to Malaysia for the CIMB Asia Pacific Classic, which he won by six shots from fellow American Jeff Overton in 2011.
It is good to see Bo winning events because he always gets himself in good positions - he is in double figures for top-10 finishes this season - but doesn't get over the line first too often. Bo is definitely an underachiever but we are starting to see him collect trophies now and he may get another one in the Far East.
Zimbabwe's Brendon de Jonge is in good form, too, having finished second at the Justin Timberlake Shriners Hospital for Children Open and then fourth at last week's McGladrey Classic at Sea Island in Georgia.
De Jonge has been one of the biggest birdie-makers over the last few seasons on the PGA Tour, but hasn't yet learned to play some really great final rounds.
He goes all guns blazing on Thursday and Friday, settles down on Saturday but can't quite do it on Sunday. If he can find the trick to unlocking that door, we will certainly see Brendon winning a few events.
Tommy Gainey is not playing this week and is no doubt basking in his victory at the McGladrey Classic, which he achieved after shooting a 10-under par final round of 60.
"Two Gloves" has a very unconventional swing but the most important thing in golf is not what your swing looks like but the effect it has. If you can repeat your action, understand your action and know where the ball is going, you really have got the game taped.
It's great that such an individual swinger can enjoy success on the PGA Tour but another one, Bubba Watson, is the reigning Masters champion.
I'm sure Watson is an inspiration for Tommy and I look forward to seeing Bubba place the Green Jacket on Gainey next year...
Paul Casey's return to form makes me think he will win before the end of the season and I see no reason why that won't be at the BMW Masters, where he has odds of 45/1 at Sky Bet, while at the CIMB Asia Pacific Classic, I will go for Jason Dufner (15/2 with Sky Bet) to edge the likes of Tiger Woods, Bo Van Pelt and Brendon de Jonge.

Student Fitness for Continued Enrollment — New Guidance
New guidance is now available to help academic units manage situations in which there is concern about whether a student with a mental health impairment is fit for continued enrollment or return to enrollment after an absence. The guidance acknowledges the University's core values of nondiscrimination and inclusiveness, health and safety, the integrity of academic standards, and confidentiality and privacy.
The guidance identifies appropriate circumstances for requesting medical evaluation, medical documentation, or compliance with specific treatment plans. The document also identifies specific procedures and tools for managing these situations effectively, and a list of campus resources.
The information was developed by the Dean of Students Office, Services for Students with Disabilities, the Office of Institutional Equity, and the Office of the Vice-President and General Counsel.

A UNIQUE population of tool-using orang-utans is being threatened by an upsurge in logging around the Suaq Balimbing research station in the north of Sumatra, Indonesia. The apes fashion sticks into probes with which they extract honey and insects from trees, and dig out seeds from fruits protected by stinging hairs.
Orang-utans are found only in Borneo and Sumatra, and 90 per cent of them have been lost over the past century. The total population was estimated at less than 40 000 even before the latest upsurge in logging and the forest fires that have ravaged Borneo since 1997.
The Suaq Balimbing orang-utans live in an area of tropical forest teeming with biting insects. "It's a horrible place for research, a fetid swamp, but it's orang-utan paradise," says primatologist Ian Singleton of the University of Kent at Canterbury, who has recently returned from the area. Not only can the orang-utans ...

Needed: a U-turn
During the recent fighting involving Israel and Hezbollah,
a congressional resolution one-sidedly backing Israel's response raced
through both houses of Congress with hardly any opposition at all.
Another resolution (sponsored by Rep. Dennis Kucinich) calling for an immediate cessation of violence in the
Middle East languished, with at last count 33 co-sponsors.
It's clear just from reading the news that both sides committed war crimes, substantial war crimes: firing rockets or dropping
bombs on innocent civilians, with reckless disregard for human life, with
casualties in the thousands -- not to mention the people made homeless and
houses demolished. There are other sources which
will give you good information about what has and still is happening; my
favorite is Juan Cole's "Informed
Comment." (And this
doesn't even get into the question of whether the American invasion of
Iraq was an "aggressive war.")
After the Nuremburg trials, the allies
executed Germans for doing exactly these sorts of things in the Second
World War. True, the Allies did some of the same things (Dresden
and Hiroshima come to mind); and the scale of the atrocities in the Second
World War, or even the Vietnam War, was much larger. But how many
have to die before questions are raised about war crimes? Should we
remain silent if there are only a thousand innocents dead? Ten thousand?
A hundred thousand?
Now I'm not heavily into the vengeance thing, so I'm not
that concerned about meting out punishment here. I'm concerned with
the question, does someone actually need to say, "war crimes are a
bad idea"? Or, "we shouldn't vote in favor of acts of war,
especially those resulting in the deaths of thousands of
innocents"? Or, "when senseless violence occurs, we
should speak out against it"?
The actions of the U. S. Congress on this matter are not
acceptable. If our representatives or the American
people (depending on whom you feel like blaming) want to regain the trust
of compassionate people,
this situation needs to be corrected.

Endless meetings through the busy season, hours of hard work, out of pocket money, lawyer and accountant bills, and the government's inability to meet their own stated deadlines have all been sources of frustration for the patrons of the first ten pastures. However, the recent government announcement that federal lands in these pastures remain tied up in a Federal asset disposition process has driven that frustration to a boil.
From the beginning Patrons of the first 10 pastures have been put under pressure to meet Government deadlines and pave the path for 52 pastures to follow. As set out by the Government, Dec. 1st, 2013 was the deadline set for the 1st five pastures to be transitioned. Patrons were told they must have a grazing association formed, a solid business plan produced, and be ready to sign on the dotted line in order to lease their individual pasture. December 1st has come and gone and Patron groups are still waiting to receive an official lease agreement for review. This agreement is necessary to take back to the patron group for discussion and to understand the risks which will be taken on by patron groups.
Minister Stewart has stated clearly in many contexts that he remains committed to patrons and a successful transition of the pastures to patrons.
CPPAS, in consultation with member pastures scheduled to transition this year developed a set of objectives which outlines what a successful transition should involve. These objectives are outlined below:
1. Maximize the number of existing pasture patrons who are able to continue receiving summer grazing on the Community Pastures.
2. Ensure that the community pastures remain financially sustainable in the long run, in order to provide supplemental grazing on an equitable basis to Saskatchewan livestock producers.
3. Ensure that our community pasture's productive capacity is maintained by effectively managing stocking rates and grazing plans, using professional pasture managers.
4. Retain the public benefit of our community pasture by maintaining the environmental integrity and bio-diversity of our community pasture, as well as maximizing the carbon sequestration potential through effective grazing management.
5. Allow continued access for non-agricultural activities on our community pasture such as hunting and grassland research, in a matter compatible with the grazing management plan for the community pasture.
These objectives , we believe, are consistent with the government's stated policy objectives. However, to meet these broad objectives, CPPAS membership believes that the government needs to change the financial and risk terms being proposed to patrons. Specifically, we are asking the following:
1. Patrons must have assurances that the federal lands will be available for a significant, defined time period.
2. The purchase of the bulls must be subject to a breeding soundness test in the spring as is generally accepted procedure in the cattle business.
3. In recognition that the public benefits are being sustained, lease and land costs must be reduced from those initially proposed.
4. In recognition of the tremendous uncertainty placed upon patrons, lease payments need to be based on use rather than preset grazing capacity. The PFRA was unable to keep these pastures full and with increased costs and an ever decreasing time frame, patron groups will struggle to fill the pastures in the transition period.
5. Government money which was announced for transitions needs to be more flexible to allow patron groups to use the funds more generally in the business transition process.
"We wrote to the Federal Minister months ago and outlined the issues which would necessitate a delay. Those issues remain unresolved. It is now critical that an interim solution be developed in consultation with patrons and the two levels of government. If we fail to solve the short term issues, the long term viability of our patron grazing associations will be threatened by short term transition issues." said Ian McCreary chair of CPPAS.
The CPPAS proposal represents a constructive, public-private partnership between patrons, the Ministry and other users and beneficiaries of a healthy, sustainable community pasture designed to achieve a number of key objectives.
The fully prepared proposal document is now available and may be viewed on the CPPAS website at: www.cppas.co. CPPAS is an association of Patrons working together to attain sustainable community pastures and promote viable grassland stewardship.

Delhi Police on Saturday told a court here that it would not lodge a fresh FIR on a complaint filed by another African woman who has claimed that she was molested during last week's midnight raid by a group allegedly led by Law Minister Somnath Bharti.
"Present petitioner has already been examined in the (FIR lodged on January 19) case by the investigating officer and her statement under section 164 of CrPC has also been recorded on January 21.
"Hence, no fresh FIR was registered as the matter pertains to the same incident in which the case has been registered," Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) B S Jaiswal said in a reply filed before Metropolitan Magistrate Chetna Singh.
The DCP also said that the complainant has already been made a witness in the FIR which was lodged on January 19 after the court's direction.
The reply was filed today after the magistrate had earlier sought the response of police on whether the complainant had approached them.
However, submissions by the police were opposed by advocate Rakesh Sherawat, who appeared for the Ugandan woman and said that she was molested by a group of people during the midnight raid on the intervening night of January 15-16.
"She herself is the victim of the incident, so a separate FIR is required to be lodged. She was molested by a group of 9-10 people. Until the investigation is not done separately, how can it be established that she was molested by whom," the lawyer told the court.
The court, however, directed the advocate to file written submission in response to the reply filed by police.
"After you file the reply, I will look into it," the magistrate said and listed the matter for January 28. The police told the court that on January 19, an FIR was lodged against unknown persons under various sections of the IPC, including 153-A (promoting enmity between classes), 323 (voluntarily causing hurt), 354 (outraging women modesty), 509 (uttering any word or making any gesture intended to insult the modesty of a woman), 506 (criminal intimidation) and 147 (rioting) at the Malviya Nagar police station.
The FIR was lodged by police on court's direction after a Ugandan woman had filed a plea on January 18 seeking lodging of criminal case against unknown persons.
Later in the week, another African woman had moved the court seeking registration of a separate FIR alleging that she was molested by the group.
The woman had claimed that the group had forcibly held her hands and took her out of the house along with her sisters who resides with her.

Source: United States District Court, E.D. Virginia, Alexandria Division (LoanSafe.org) – Plaintiffs alleged that "at no time" was MERS a holder of the "Note" or "Deed of Trust", nor was it a "trustee" or "substitute trustee," nor, Plaintiffs alleged, was MERS ever entitled to act in any capacity under the Deed of Trust. – Courts
JOEL D. CALDERON, et al., Plaintiffs,
AURORA LOAN SERVICES, INC., et al., Defendants.
No. 1:10cv129 (JCC/IDD).
January 19, 2011.
JAMES C. CACHERIS, District Judge.
This matter is before the Court on the Defendants Aurora Loan Services, Inc. ("Aurora"), Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc. ("MERS"), and Atlantic Law Group, LLC's ("Atlantic"), (collectively, the "Defendants")1 Motion to Dismiss [Dkt. 6] Count 10 of Plaintiffs' Complaint (the "Motion"). For the following reasons, the Court will deny Defendants' Motion, but will dismiss, conditionally with prejudice, the Complaint for failure prosecute pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b).
I. Background
A. Factual Background
The facts of this case are familiar to the Court and are recounted in detail in this Court's June 3, 2010 Memorandum Opinion (the "Opinion"). [Dkt. 4.] This case arises out of the June 29, 2005 refinancing of the mortgage on a residential property located at 2022 Cumberland Drive, Woodbridge, Virginia 22191 (the "Woodbridge Property") in connection with Plaintiffs' purchase of a second residential property located at 71 Tracey Lane, Fredericksburg, Virginia 22406 (the "Fredericksburg Property").
Plaintiffs' Complaint alleged certain wrongdoings arising out of the refinancing of the Woodbridge Property and the subsequent purchase of the Fredericksburg Property in June and July of 2005, respectively. In eight counts of their Complaint, the Plaintiffs alleged constructive fraud, fraud (intentional misrepresentation), fraud (concealment or nondisclosure), negligent misrepresentation, negligence, civil conspiracy, aiding and abetting, and violations of certain statutory and/or regulatory provisions (i.e., the Virginia Consumer Protection Act, the Truth in Lending Act, Regulation Z, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, and Regulation X). The ninth count is identified as a "Declaratory Judgment" action, and the tenth count seeks "Injunctive Relief" barring, among other things, the foreclosure of the Fredericksburg Property.
After Plaintiffs allegedly defaulted on their obligations under the refinancing of the Woodbridge Property, Defendant MERS, identifying itself as "holder of a Deed of Trust dated June 24, 2005 . . .," executed a Deed of Appointment of Substitute Trustees appointing Defendant Atlantic as "Substitute Trustee" under the "Deed of Trust" for the Woodbridge Property. The Deed of Appointment was prepared on December 14, 2009, and was intended to be effective from November 20, 2007.Plaintiffs alleged that "at no time" was MERS a holder of the "Note" or "Deed of Trust", nor was it a "trustee" or "substitute trustee," nor, Plaintiffs alleged, was MERS ever entitled to act in any capacity under the Deed of Trust.
The Plaintiffs filed for Chapter 13 bankruptcy protection in September of 2009. (Mem. Op.2 at 21.) Before the dismissal of that case, a non-party corporation, OneWest, FSB (formerly known as Indymac Federal Bank, FSB) ("OneWest"), filed a proof of claim for the loan on the Fredericksburg Property. Id.
B. Procedural Background
On December 28, 2009, Plaintiffs filed a 10-count Complaint in the Circuit Court for Prince William County, Virginia. [Dkt. 1, Ex. A.] On February 16, 2010, Defendant Aurora removed the case to this Court. [Dkt. 1.] On February 23, 2010, Defendants filed a motion to dismiss Counts One through Nine of the Complaint pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) and to add certain necessary parties as defendants for purposes of Count 10 pursuant to Rule 12(b)(7). [Dkt. 2.] Plaintiffs did not oppose that motion.
On June 3, 2010, this Court dismissed Counts One through Nine of the Complaint as to Defendants and ordered Plaintiffs to "add all necessary parties to this action, including, but not limited to, the owner(s), holder(s), and/or person(s) entitled to enforce the promissory note associated with the [Fredericksburg Property], the trustee(s) under the applicable deed of trust associated with said promissory note, and any other lienholders that would be affected by the injunctive relief sought in Count Ten" within 30 days of June 3, 2010 (the "June 3 Order"). [Dkt. 5.]
Plaintiffs have failed to comply with or otherwise respond to the June 3 Order and have not responded to Defendants' Motion. Plaintiffs did not appear at the oral argument regarding the Motion scheduled before this Court on January 14, 2011. Defendants' unopposed Motion is before the Court.
II. Standard of Review
In Count 10 of the Complaint, the Plaintiffs seek injunctive relief preventing, among other things, the foreclosure of the Fredericksburg Property. (See Compl. ¶¶ 5, 19, 120.) Defendants argue that because Plaintiffs have failed to add all necessary parties pursuant to the June 3 Order, Count 10 should be dismissed for failure to join the indispensable parties. (Mem.3 at 3.)
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(7) permits a court to dismiss an action when a plaintiff fails to join an indispensable party in accordance with Rule 19. Rule 19 sets forth a two-step inquiry to determine whether a party should be joined in an action. First, a district court must determine whether the party is "necessary" to the action under Rule 19(a). Nat'l Union Fire Ins. Co. v. Rite ex rel. S.C.,210 F.3d 246, 250 (4th Cir. 2000). Second, "if a necessary party is unavailable for some reason, it must be determined whether the party is `indispensable' to the case, in that the party's appearance is so essential that the case must be dismissed." DPR Const., Inc. v. IKEA Property, Inc., No. 1:05cv259, 2005 WL 1667778, at *2 (E.D. Va. July 5, 2005).
Even assuming OneWest, or any other party for that matter, is necessary and indispensable, dismissal under Rule 19(b) is proper only after it is shown that a necessary party cannot be joined. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 19(b) ("If a person who is required to be joined if feasible cannot be joined, the court must determine whether, in equity and good conscience, the action should proceed among the existing parties or should be dismissed."); Hazbun Escaf v. Rodriquez,191 F.Supp.2d 685, 691 (E.D. Va. 2002) ("[S]econd, if a necessary party cannot be joined for some reason, it must be determined whether the party is `indispensable' to the case[.]"). Here, Defendants have made no such showing. Accordingly, because nothing in the record illustrates that OneWest or any other necessary party cannot be joined, and Defendants have made no arguments to that effect, dismissal pursuant to Rule 19 is improper and will not be ordered.
Plaintiffs, however, have nonetheless neglected to abide by this Court's June 3 Order to add to this action all necessary parties, failing to respond to the Order or to Defendants Motion. Under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, "[i]f [a] plaintiff fails to prosecute or to comply with these rules or a court order, a defendant may move to dismiss the action or any claim against it." Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b). While Defendants have not so moved here, a district court "has the inherent power to dismiss sua sponte a case for lack of prosecution, even without affording notice of its intention to do so or providing an adversarial hearing before acting." Calkins v. Pacel Corp.,602 F.Supp.2d 730, 735 (W.D. Va. 2009) (citing Link v. Wabash R. Co.,370 U.S. 626, 631 (1962)); 9 Charles Alan Wright & Arthur R. Miller, Federal Practice & Procedure § 2369 (3d ed. 2010). The Fourth Circuit has recognized the authority that this rule gives courts "to control litigation before them, and this authority includes the power to order dismissal of an action for failure to comply with court orders." Ballard v. Carlson,882 F.2d 93, 95 (4th Cir. 1989). A district court's decision to dismiss a suit under Rule 41(b) is reviewed for abuse of discretion. Id. Because Plaintiffs have failed to comply with the June 3 Order, the Court sua sponte will address whether Plaintiffs action should be dismissed for failure to prosecute, pursuant to Rule 41(b).
III. Analysis
Dismissal with prejudice under Federal Rule Civil Procedure 41(b) is "a harsh sanction which should not be invoked lightly." Davis v. Williams,588 F.2d 69, 70 (4th Cir. 1978). The Fourth Circuit has set forth four criteria for a district court to consider in determining whether dismissal is appropriate: "(1) the degree of personal responsibility on the part of the plaintiff; (2) the amount of prejudice to the defendant caused by the delay; (3) the presence or absence of a `drawn out history' of `deliberately proceeding in a dilatory fashion;' and (4) the effectiveness of sanctions less drastic than dismissal." Id. (citing McCargo v. Hedrick,545 F.2d 393, 396 (4th Cir. 1976)). These factors "are not a rigid four-prong test," and dismissal "depends on the particular circumstances of the case." Ballard, 882 F.2d at 95. This Court will balance these factors to determine whether dismissal is appropriate in the instant matter.
Since Defendants removed this case to this Court on February 16, 2010, Plaintiffs have not filed any papers with this Court. Plaintiffs did not respond to Defendants February 23, 2010 Motion to Dismiss Counts One through Nine of the Complaint, did not comply with the June 3 Order, and did not respond to or appear at oral argument regarding the Motion presently before the Court.4 Because of these failures to respond, "[t]he record in this case supports a finding that Plaintiffs' counsel repeatedly failed to take responsibility in this litigation." Espejo v. George Mason Mortg., LLC, No. 1:09cv1295, 2010 WL 1641467, at *3 (E.D. Va. Apr. 22, 2010).
As to the first factor, the degree of personal responsibility on the part of the plaintiff, as Plaintiffs have not filed anything with this Court, nothing in the record reflects on this factor. Plaintiffs themselves, however, are ultimately responsible for their attorneys' conduct. Byerson v. Equifax Information Services, LLC, No. 6:07cv00005, 2009 WL 82497, at *2 (D.S.C. Jan. 9, 2009); Porter v. Guarino, 223 F.R.D. 282, 284 (M.D.N.C. 2004) ("[A] plaintiff can be held responsible for his or her attorney's conduct."). That nothing in the record illustrates that Plaintiffs, as opposed to their counsel, bear responsibility for the failure to make any filings with this Court cuts both ways—they are neither clearly at fault nor clearly relieved from it. Because as a general matter parties are ultimately responsible for the conduct of their cases, this factor is at least in equipoise for purposes of the four-prong test.
As to the second factor, the amount of prejudice to the defendant caused by the delay, Defendants have been and would continue to be prejudiced. Until all necessary parties, OneWest or otherwise, are added to this case, or until Plaintiffs illustrate that there are no necessary parties lacking, any determination in this matter would not fully resolve the controversy arising from the Fredericksburg Property and the injunctive relief sought in Count 10 of the Complaint, because other parties could have unresolved claims on the Fredericksburg Property. Any further prolonging of this matter without the participation of Plaintiffs would continue to prejudice any rights Defendants may have with respect to the real property at issue and otherwise continue to waste the parties', and this Court's, time and resources.
As to the third factor, Plaintiffs have "a history of deliberately proceeding in a dilatory fashion." Davis, 588 F.2d at 70. As mentioned above, Plaintiffs have failed to comply with or otherwise respond to this Court's June 3 Order to join any necessary parties and have not opposed any of motions that have been filed with this Court or made any filings or appearances whatsoever over last 11 months. Taken as a whole, Plaintiffs' behavior illustrates they have proceeded in a dilatory fashion.
As to the fourth factor, because the Court recognizes the draconian nature of the sanction afforded by Rule 41(b)—a dismissal with prejudice—it considers other available sanctions that would also be effective. Given Plaintiffs' complete failure to comply with the June 3 Order and their continued failure to respond to any of Defendants' motions or otherwise participate in this matter, the Court does not see an effective remedy less drastic than a dismissal in this case. The Court has no interest in keeping Defendants in unnecessarily prolonged litigation that is not being actively prosecuted by Plaintiffs and likewise has no interest in rewarding Plaintiffs who irresponsibly failed to litigate this case. Espejo, 2010 WL 1641467, at *3. Given the harsh nature of dismissal with prejudice, however, the Court will order Plaintiffs to show good cause within 7 days as to why the Complaint should not be dismissed with prejudice. Id. If Plaintiffs fail to respond to show good cause within the allotted time, the Court will then dismiss Plaintiffs' Complaint with prejudice pursuant to Rule 41(b). Id.
IV. Conclusion
For these reasons, the Court will deny Defendants' Motion, but will dismiss, conditionally with prejudice, the Complaint for failure prosecute pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(b).
An appropriate Order will issue.

ATLANTA (AP) -- A tiny Georgia city and a national gun control group are facing off in a legal battle over a law requiring gun ownership.
The Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence in May filed a federal lawsuit against Nelson, a city of 1,300 residents north of Atlanta. The gun control advocates are challenging the constitutionality of the law and trying to discourage copycat measures.
The City Council adopted the Family Protection Ordinance on April 1. It requires every head of household to own a gun and ammunition but exempts convicted felons, the disabled and anyone who objects to gun ownership.
City officials have said they never intended to enforce the ordinance.
Both sides are gathering documents and making procedural court filings. The city's lawyer says he hopes to reach a settlement.

Bruising win for the Lions
Murray and Hook both injured in hard-fought victory
Last Updated: 16/06/09 3:53pm
Murray: Injured his ankle
The British and Irish Lions were left counting the cost after a bruising 20-8 victory against the Southern Kings.
With the first Test against South Africa coming up on Saturday, the Lions lost prop Euan Murray and fly-half James Hook during a ferocious opening period.
Murray, who had been in the running to start against the Springboks in Durban, needed crutches to get back to the changing rooms after damaging his ankle after eight minutes.
And he was joined in the treatment room by Hook five minutes, with the Osprey having to be helped off the field.
De Wet Barry, Frikkie Welsh, Jaco van der Westhuyzen, Wylie Human and Ruan Vermeulen all got stuck into the tourists - who were left battered and bruised.
The in-your-face tactic from the Kings paid dividends early on as the Lions failed to get into their stride.
In particular, head coach Ian McGeechan will have been disappointed with his side's work around the breakdown - with Joe Worsley, Nathan Hines and Andy Powell doing little to strengthen their Test claims.
However on the positives, Ronan O'Gara impressed as Hook's replacement, Simon Shaw was a constant menace around the park while the scrum looks a real threat.
The Lions found themselves 3-0 down after two minutes with van der Westhuyzen slotting over a penalty.
And the score could have been worse as Jaco Engels and Francois Hougaard were both denied try-scoring chances by desperate tackles from Ugo Monye and O'Gara.
However, with van der Westhuyzen sin-binned for a late challenge on Riki Flutey, the Lions were able to claw their way back into the game.
Keith Earls made a couple of scything breaks but lacked the finish, before O'Gara levelled the match on 27 minutes after a collapsed scrum.
However the Lions failed to build on some encouraging spells and it was the Kings who almost scored the first try.
Marco Wentzel started the move with a delightful chip and chase before Wylie Human came charging through off the flank. Fortunately O'Gara was on hand, though, to save the day with a crucial tackle.
And it was the Irish fly-half who was next to score, slotting over his second penalty just after the interval.
That score gave the Lions the push they needed, with O'Gara pulling the strings as his kicking pegged the hosts back.
It was from an O'Gara kick that saw the Lions score the first try, with Monye pouncing on the loose ball after he and Mat Turner missed the initial bounce. O'Gara added the extras.
The try took the wind out of the hosts, who suddenly found chances hard to come by as the Lions forced them back.
The Lions put the game beyond doubt on 69 minutes, with the forwards doing the work.
Opting to go for the set-piece from a penalty, the Kings were guilty of collapsing the scrum. A second collapsed scrum followed immediately leaving Nigel Owens no option but to award the penalty try. O'Gara converted.
The Kings, though, refused to give up and they were rewarded for their efforts with a try from Mpho Mbiyozo with seven minutes left.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Lisa Vanderpump to Faye Resnick in RHoBH Season 3 Finale: "Checkmate, Bitch"
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills finale was full of uncomfortable confrontations, many of them involving Faye Resnick.
She found a formidable foe in Lisa Vanderpump, who was in the midst of hosting her vow renewal party when Faye decided to pick a fight with her.
"I think you're using Brandi to get even with people," Faye said to Lisa.
Clearly annoyed by the statement, Lisa asked, "You think that I get Brandi to say things for me?"
"I think you get her all worked up, yes," replied Faye. She brings up Adrienne, and Lisa said Brandi has her own issues with Adrienne. When Faye asked why Brandi has a problem with Adrienne, Lisa said, "Why don't you ask her that? That's a real insult to me, Faye."
"I would never insult you," Faye Resnick insisted.
"I think it's a bloody insult to say to the hostess of a party 'You're manipulative,'" Lisa Vanderpump said in her confessional.
Faye used the rumor about Brandi hooking up with a man at Kyle Richards's White Party as an example of Lisa defending Brandi despite "evidence" to contrary, and Lisa got even more upset.
"Faye is being a little hypocritical here," said Lisa. "Faye is actually guilty of what she was accusing Brandi of: spreading malicious gossip."
When Faye compared Lisa's actions to a calculated game of chess, Lisa says, "OK, well that's such an insult."
"I'm not trying to insult you," said Faye, seemingly oblivious that her words are upsetting Lisa.
Addressing Faye's chess comments, Lisa told the cameras in her confessional, "Checkmate, bitch."
Do you think Faye's comments to Lisa were inappropriate?

Finding a position that's comfortable and supportive is important for beginning meditation. Remaining completely still for any period of time is difficult for most Americans, and if you're uncomfortable, it makes it even harder.
If you're just starting out with meditation, don't feel like you have to twist yourself up like a pretzel. A simple posture will provide just as much benefit.
In Buddhist philosophy, the mind, body, and breath are intricately connected. How you sit will affect the quality of your breathing and your mental focus.
Correct Posture
Keeping your back straight with good posture is important no matter which meditation position you choose. This allows the diaphragm to move freely as you breathe more deeply. If you are sitting on the floor, you may need a pillow (called a zafu) to raise your buttocks and help you keep your body upright with very little effort.
Chair Position
Sitting in a chair is the simplest way to begin your meditation practice. It's also the best option for individuals who suffer from back pain or other discomfort that makes sitting on the floor difficult. Keep your feet flat on the floor. Use a backrest if needed, but keep your body upright and your back straight. You can use a zafu pillow behind your back to help your posture, or you can sit on the front third of the zafu in the same you would use it on the floor.
Floor Positions
Sitting on the floor helps you feel more grounded and stable. Meditation cushions such as a zafu and zabuton can make sitting on the floor more comfortable. Use the zafu to raise your hips and make it easier to keep your body upright. Sit on the front third of the zafu cushion. You can either sit with your knees bent in a kneeling position with the zafu under you (seiza position) or with your legs crossed in front of you and both feet on the floor, in the Burmese position.
The Burmese, half Lotus, and Lotus positions require flexibility. Only attempt to sit in these positions if you can do so comfortably. Otherwise they may interfere with your ability to meditate.

Well said Tiggs. Keep the fire dept as is. Reduce the police farce and re-examine the mission. They spend way to much time and money hasseling citizens. Friday and Saturday nights in this town are like living in an occuied city. A cop goes by downtown about once a minute. Last Friday night I watched a cop sitting in his car across the stree from th O bar for about 30 minuets. They do the same at the cowboy. If real crime is that low in this city, then we don't need that many cops

All my son moving
Here I pause. My Diary, from which I have compiled these pages, goes but little further. I could go on for years, but I will content myself with adding, that I shall never forget that glorious summer evening, and always all my son moving with delight that steep hill, and the edge of the precipice where we stood together, watching the splendid sunset mirrored in the restless world of waters at our feet-with hearts filled with gratitude to heaven, and happiness, and love-almost too full for speech. A few weeks after that, when my mother had supplied herself with an assistant, I became the wife of Edward Weston; and never have found cause to repent it, and am certain that I never shall. We have had trials, and we know that we must have them again; but we bear them well together, and endeavour to fortify ourselves and each other against the final separation-that greatest of all afflictions to the survivor. all my son moving, if we keep in mind the glorious heaven beyond, where both may meet again, and sin and sorrow are unknown, surely that too may be borne; and, meantime, we endeavour to live to the glory of Him who has scattered so many blessings in our path. Edward, by his strenuous exertions, has worked surprising reforms in his parish, and is esteemed and loved by its inhabitants-as he deserves; for whatever his faults may be as a man and no one is entirely without, I defy all my son moving to blame him as a pastor, a husband, or a father.

Be a Year-round Discount Shopper
You can improve your finances in any year you so choose simply by changing one of your shopping habits. Instead of shopping only at the traditional retail discount times of the year be a year-round discount shopper.
It is simple. Be a year-round discount shopper instead of just July Fourth, Labor Day, Christmas and the other big shopping days. Forget the calendar and be on the lookout for the best deals all year long.
For the skeptics, yes, they happen. The retailers have learned that discounting is a great sales tool. How did they learn it? Customer demand – you know be a year-round discount shopper – and their attention to detail from their merchandise logs. Some retailers offer great sales at unexpected times as well as at the traditional sales periods.
There are some retailers who have switched their business model to offering sales all year long. That means you can always find a great price on that item you wanted. By chance if another retailer is offering the same item at a lower price, this retailer will match that price. That means you will always get the lowest price because you were aware of the retail environment regarding your desired product. To be a year-round discount shopper can have its perks.
I'm not forgetting the online universe. In fact, the Internet almost forces you to be a year-round discount shopper because of all the advertising retailers do on the big name websites. They also don't neglect their own sites.
The cold hard truth is that online retailers will sell you the same item they have in their store at a lower price online. They force to you to be a year-round discount shopper by their pricing model. You not only can buy it cheaper online but you get to pick it up at your lower retail outlet. This saves you a huge shipping charge.
Why would they do that? Do they want you to be a year-round discount shopper? Yes and no are the answers.
Yes, they want you to be a year-round discount shopper on their site and no they don't want you to be a year-round discount shopper anywhere else. If you consistently stay with one or two retailers, they have the benefit of what is called the lifetime value of a customer.
They know you will spend $XXX over your shopping life and they want to capture those dollars. They compute this figure on what you've spent with them in the past over a given time period and do projection analysis. The resulting number is called lifetime value of a customer.
This kind of thinking has proven to be pretty darned near on the money. Hence, they want you to be a year-round discount shopper with them. If this was insurance, you would be called their annuity.
Take heed because this isn't negative. On the contrary, it almost always results in lower prices and more sales. The retailers aren't fools. They want to move merchandise and they know the buyers want to buy.
The tricky part is the timing of the sales. That is why it pays to be a year-round discount shopper. If you pay attention to the sales and offers, you save money. If you save money, you continue to be a year-round discount shopper. Both the retailer and you are dancing a winning dance.
