2012 NFL Free Agency Previews: AFC West
|Will Norv Turner and the Chargers be able to rebound from a disappointing 2011 season? (Getty Images)
Denver BroncosIt's not like anyone needs to be reminded of what happened in Denver last season, but in case you're recently out of a coma or just back from Mars, here goes: Tim Tebow happened. Specifically, he took over for Kyle Orton after the Broncos got off to a 1-4 start, looked overwhelmed and out of sorts for the the first month or so, but still helped lead Denver to a six-game winning streak, the division title, and a wild-card win over the Steelers. Although team executive John Elway and head coach John Fox have named Tebow the starter heading into training camp, we wouldn't be surprised if that changed in the coming months.
Free agents of note
We listed Brodrick Bunkley as one of the top-10 free-agent defensive tackles … Safety Brian Dawkins is 38 and is contemplating retirement … Shifty wide receiver and returner Eddie Royal is expected to sign elsewhere … Kicker Matt Prater was franchised.
The elephant in the room: quarterback. Even if Tebow is the starter in '12, Brady Quinn won't be back. Which means that the Broncos will need a backup. No matter what Dawkins' decides, there's also a need at safety even though Denver drafted Rahim Moore last April. According to Pro Football Focus, J.D. Walton "was the worst center in football" last season. Willis McGahee is 30 and Knowshon Moreno has yet to play up to his 16th-overall draft status, so running back could also be addressed in the coming months. Denver shipped Brandon Lloyd to the Rams midway through the season and Demaryius Thomas was the only legitimate big-play threat (although Tebow and Eric Decker developed a good rapport, too).
In theory, the list of potential free-agent QB candidates could include Chad Henne, Jason Campbell or even David Garrard. The reality, however, is that those guys a) would like to be starters, and b) saw what happened to Kyle Orton and probably don't want any part of Tebowmania. One solution: the Broncos could go after Peyton Manning (hey, look at that!), demote or trade Tebow, and try to talk one of the aforementioned free agents into coming to Denver to be part of a more conventional offense. PFF thinks that Packers center Scott Wells could be an interesting option, as would former Raider Samson Satele, who excels as a run-blocker. Michael Bush would be an expensive choice at running back and a cheaper alternative could be found in the draft. Denver will need to shore up the middle of their defense if Bunkley leaves and Jason Jones, Sione Pouha or Aubrayo Franklin could work as replacements.
Kansas City ChiefsThe Chiefs went from AFC West champs in 2010 to a seven-win outfit in 2012 that played so poorly over the first half of the season that head coach Todd Haley was fired. The offense sputtered after Jamaal Charles and Matt Cassel ended up on injured reserve and Tyler Palko took over at quarterback. Despite those shortcomings, the defense was solid under defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel (13th in the league according to Football Outsiders), now the head coach.
Free agents of note
WR Brandon Carr will draw plenty of interest in free agency … The Chiefs signed Kyle Orton late last season and they've said they'd like to keep him … Running back Thomas Jones will be 34 in August and Jackie Battle will likely test free agency too … Defensive tackle Kelly Gregg could retire … Dwayne Bowe was wisely franchised.
The Chiefs have been mentioned as one of the dozen or so teams interested in Manning but those odds seem long. Kansas City needs to upgrade the right side of the offensive line -- RT Barry Richardson didn't grade out well according to PFF. Charles should be healthy when training camp begins but the Chiefs need to find a young, fresh pair of legs to replace Jones and Battle (Dexter McCluster is a start, but he's more a change-of-pace back at this stage of his career).
Should Orton not return, Henne and Campbell could be options (to go along with second-year QB Ricky Stanzi), and BenJarvus Green-Ellis or Mike Tolbert could share carries with Charles. If Carr leaves, the Chiefs should be okay -- they signed Stanford Routt last month. Dolphins nose tackle Paul Soliai could bolster the middle of the defense although NFLDraftScout.com's Rob Rangthinks that Dontari Poe could be an option via the draft.
Oakland RaidersThe Raiders got off to a 4-2 start in Hue Jackson's first season as head coach but then Jason Campbell went down with a shoulder injury, the team panicked and gave up a first and second-round pick for Carson Palmer, and lost four of five games to finish 8-8 and lose the AFC West tiebreaker to the Broncos. Jackson was fired in the offseason and new general manager Reggie McKenzie has already begun to clean house.
Free agents of note
Running back Michael Bush wasn't franchised, which means he's headed for free agency … Quarterback Jason Campbell just can't catch a break; after a solid start in '11, he was injured, lost his job and won't get a chance to regain it in Oakland … Center Samson Satele is an adept run-blocker and shouldn't have trouble finding work … Tyvon Branch was one of the Raiders' best defensive players last season and was franchised.
First need: get under the salary cap. The team already released Routt, and on Friday cut ties with defensive backs Chris Johnson and Hiram Eugene. They'll also make a decision on linebacker Kamerion Wimbley. Palmer, Michael Huff and Richard Seymour have all restructured their contracts. Assuming Oakland can get far enough under the cap to make some meaningful moves, they could stand upgrades in the secondary and linebacker, and also along the offensive line.
With Brandon Carr and Cortland Finnegan likely out of their price range, Oakland might have to settle for names like William Gay, Aaron Ross or Tracy Porter. And because this is the Raiders, we'll mention that Pacman Jones is available too. PFFcalls the right tackle position "a sore spot," and mentions names like Demetrius Bell, Jared Gaither and Anthony Collins as possible targets (though they may be out of Oakland's price range too).
San Diego ChargersThe Chargers were the second-most disappointing team in the NFL last season, behind the Eagles. They got off to an abysmal start and ran out of games at the end of the year. An 8-8 finish wasn't enough to get Norv Turner fired and he'll return in 2012 with franchise quarterback Philip Rivers but plenty of other question marks on both sides of the ball.
Free agents of note
Mike Tolbert will be one of the best available free-agent running backs when he hits the market … Tackle Jared Gaither played well in his short time in San Diego and the team may try to re-sign him … Same holds for Center Nick Hardwick and fullback Jacob Hester … Defensive tackle Antonio Garay will test free agency although the Chargers would re-sign him if there isn't much demand from other teams … Wide receiver Vincent Jackson has said he wants to stay in San Diego but will he be able to turn down a huge deal from another WR-needy team?
The team released defensive lineman Luis Castillo and guard Kris Deilman retired last week. The Chargers are reportedly high on guard Tyronne Green so if they can wrap up Gaither and Hardwick, the offensive line would be adequate (hey, it's a start). San Diego reportedly planned to release cornerback Dante Hughes, who had his issues in the sub-packages last season.
Ideally, the Chargers would lock up Gaither, Hardwick, Jackson and Hester, which would make for a good free agency for them. If they lose out on the o-linemen, that's a huge problem. Bell and Collins could be alternatives at LT, but Gaither is arguably better. And while the offense can survive without Jackson, he makes things a lot easier for Rivers, especially if Antonio Gates is healthy. Possible replacements should V-Jax not return: Reggie Wayne (if he doesn't follow Manning), Brandon Lloyd, and maybe even Marques Colston. (Like Gaither and the free-agent tackles, Jackson's the best of the bunch among the wideouts.) They will also need to replace Tolbert, who rushed for eight touchdowns in '11. Running backs are easy to come by and if GM A.J. Smith can't find a bargain in free agency he could wait until the draft to fill the need.

Reports compiled by Andrew Desko (email@example.com), Southeast Region Education Specialist, using information provided by Waterways Conservation Officers, Area Fisheries Managers and other PFBC staff.
Anglers on the Schuylkill River are reporting large Smallmouth Bass around the Pottstown Area. The bass in this area mainly feed on crayfish so try using similar baits. Carp and catfish are also being caught in this area late at night. Pottstown Riverfront Park is a great place to fish this section of the river, with adequate parking and a trail along the water that stretches ½ mile.
N. Chester County
Marsh Creek Lake: Bluegills and crappies are taking mealworms, wax worms, minnows and small jigs.
Bass are taking live bait (worms & minnows) as well as jigs, spinners and crank baits. Best soft bait worm colors to use are large black, purple, dark green and pumpkin seed. Best live baits are crayfish, minnows and night crawlers.
Muskies are also being caught on very large lures (the larger the better), as well as bass spinners and crankbaits. They are being found along the shore in the weedy areas.
French Creek, Pickering Creek, East Brandywine Creek and West Valley Creek have good water with plenty of trout and very few anglers fishing for them. Water temps are in the mid to high 70s.
Fly anglers have reported taking trout on blue wing olives, midges and a few taken on sulfurs. Small pheasant tail and hares ears nymphs are a good bet for nymphing. Remember, you may never have bait in your possession in any of the Special Regulation Areas. The Fly Fishing Area is Catch & Release Only. You cannot possess bait in the Delayed Harvest Artificial Lures Only Areas.
Schuylkill River: Black Rock area: Smallmouth and Largemouth Bass fishing has slowed a bit. Catfish anglers have reported catching several large Channel Catfish and are also getting into Flathead Catfish as well.
Note: Stay 100' clear of the fish ladder at the Black Rock Dam. Respect the river, and wear a PFD while onboard a boat.
S. Montgomery/W. Philadelphia Counties
Fishing on the Schuylkill River is in full swing with the arrival of Bass Season on June 13. Anglers are reporting sightings of fish believed to be Northern Snakeheads in the tidal section of Schuylkill River at the Art Museum/Waterworks.
Catfish are the main catch on the Delaware River and the Schuylkill River when fishing from the shore. Chicken livers, worms, shrimp, and bagels are the favored baits when fishing for catfish. Live bait offered after dark is the best choice when fishing for the monster flatheads. Stripers are still being reported in the tidal section of the Schuylkill River, the minimum size limit is now 28 inches. Last, but certainly not least, Common Carp fishing is starting to heat up in the river as well.
Warm weather in the area brings with it increased boating activities on the Schuylkill River, especially around the Flat Rock Park/Access Area. Boaters are reminded to maintain a safe distance between boats, rowers and skiers. Be safe.
Chiques Creek Watershed Expo – This event will occur Wednesday, June 24 from 6-9 PM at the Lancaster Leiderkrantz (off Route 283, Mount Joy). This annual event has become one of the area must-attend watershed events of the year. This year's expo promises to be bigger and better than ever with over 30 displays, giveaways, free ice cream, and neat learning experiences. This family friendly event is FREE and boasts live stream critters, a model rain garden, making a fish-print T-shirt, hearing great music, learning about your local watersheds, and having a great all around time.
For more information, go to the Lancaster County Watersheds website. PFBC District Officer Schmidt will staff an informational exhibit to underscore the "Resource First" motto, various PFBC publications will be available along with the Officer's reptilian patrol partners; an Eastern Ratsnake and an Eastern Milk Snake.
Anthony Deal caught this 53 lb. Flathead Catfish on the Perkiomen Creek below the dam from the Perkiomen Trail on 8-lb test and a 7-ft rod with a night crawler.

A Washington County official reported finding water lettuce and water hyacinth in the creek near Division and Old Farm roads Oct. 7, and someone is believed to be dumping the species in the water source.
According to the Germantown police report:
The Washington County Aquatic Invasive Species coordinator reported finding water lettuce and water hyacinth in the creek at 11:55 a.m. Oct. 7. It was the fifth time the two invasive species were found in the creek.
The coordinator said he found a grocery bag full of the plants at a nearby bridge and believes someone is dumping them over the bridge on purpose.
An extra patrol watch of the area was requested, as dumping an invasive species into Wisconsin waterways is a crime that carries a $300 fine per incident.

MLB Instant Replay: Owners Approve Expanded ReplayBy: Erika Watts - November 15, 2013
If you've always appreciated the coach's challenges in football and wished something similar were in place for MLB, then you're going to love the expanded instant replay that the team owners are working to implement. And if you're one of those people who are extremely passionate about keeping baseball pure and leaving the instant replay stuff for other sports, then you might want to step away from the computer for a moment because it's happening.
The MLB team owners voted unanimously this week to move forward with funding expanding instant replay, which would include at least one manager's challenge per game for each team. The only hurdle remaining in implementing the new MLB instant replay is getting the support of the Major League Baseball Players Association and the World Umpires Association, something Commissioner Bud Selig doesn't think will be a problem.
"We made a gigantic move today, and I'm very pleased about that," Selig said. "The bottom line is, we're moving forward on replay. People spoke very emotionally about it. Clubs are very excited about it. Unless there's something I'm missing right now, we're going to have replay in 2014."
Instant replay has been around the MLB for a few years, but only in a limited capacity. Now, instead of using it just to make sure a home run is actually a home run, managers will be able to utilize instant replay to challenge pretty much anything except balls and strikes. While it hasn't been determined whether each team will get one or two challenges, the managers will get to keep the challenge if they were right on the call they challenged.
In addition to less calls being blown that could determine the outcome of the game, the new MLB instant replay will also decrease arguments between the managers and umpires. This aspect of expanded instant replay is the part that quite a few baseball fans have a problem with. After all, who would want to miss out on something like this?
As you can see from the Twitter reaction, opinions on the expanded instant replay are divided, which doesn't come as much of a surprise. Do you think the MLB owners got it right by approving expanded instant replay? Add your thoughts below.[Image via YouTube]

Thought the Pittsfield School Board did not win this all-New England competition, the strong support from Pittsfield and New Hampshire (and beyond) was very gratifying and most appreciated.
Our Board was honored to be the Foundation's New Hampshire nominee for the 2014 O'Toole Award, and was the only school board to be so honored. In addition to the Foundation's recognition of our Board's strong advocacy of student-centered learning, it will be providing the district with a $10,000 grant in honor of the Board's commitment.

Bucks full of waiver-wire goodness
You've drafted, traded, and acquired your way to a hard-fought fantasy championship. Months of correct decision-making coalesce with a little bit of luck as you taste final victory. Congratulatory e-mails flood in from around the globe (especially if you're in a public league.) But then that guy stuffs sour grapes in your inbox with:
"Well, if I only didn't have all those injuries, I would have won."
• O.J. Mayo, Grizzlies: 22 points, 16 rebounds, 5 assists versus New Orleans.
• Ramon Sessions, Bucks: 26 points, 7 assists, 4 steals versus Houston.
• Charlie Villanueva, Bucks: 25 points, 8 rebounds, 5-for-10 3-pointers versus Houston.
• Tracy McGrady, Rockets: 3 points, 1 for 9 field goals at Milwaukee.
• Al Thornton, Clippers: 6 points, 3 turnovers, 3 for 13 field goals at Charlotte.
• Yao Ming, Jazz: 7 points, 10 rebounds at Milwaukee.
Monday's Bucks-Rockets offensive explosion/defensive disaster is proof positive why the person who invariably writes that self-defeating e-mail usually is usually asleep at the wheel when breaking news hits.
It sounds hard-hearted, but injuries beget opportunity. It's not rocket science. Injuries are ultimately a form of statistical turnover. They create opportunities for new players to come out of nowhere and become fantasy must-haves. It's especially true on historically mediocre-to-bad teams, the kind of teams that stockpile young talent due to a perennially medium-to-high draft position.
Milwaukee has proven fertile territory for unheralded players to remove the sword from the stone and take their rightful place among the fantasy elite. May I remind you that once upon a time Michael Redd himself came out of virtual nowhere (after a trade, not an injury) and has been a top-40 player ever since.
Right now, Ramon Sessions -- another guard drafted in the second round -- is making an impact similar to the one Redd did many moons ago. (Actually, since he's a point guard, and can't shoot from deep, it's slightly different, substituting assists for 3s). Sessions' numbers over the past five games: 23.4 points, 7.6 assists and 1.8 steals per game. And he's still almost available in 40 percent of leagues! These numbers are not going to go away, fantasy enthusiasts.
Milwaukee currently features four fantasy impact players: Charlie Villanueva, Richard Jefferson, Ramon Sessions and Charlie Bell. With the exception of Jefferson (a late-round pick), all these Bucks were undrafted waiver-wire acquisitions who have become significant box-score contributors.
That's why it's so important to stay on top of breaking news, so when the Al Jeffersons and Michael Redds of this world are suddenly lost for the season, you can shut the door to your office and get on the wire with all immediate haste. (It's also a reason to follow my personal statistical hero John Hollinger's Player Efficiency Ratings the way people used to follow the Dow Jones).
If you manage real-life NBA catastrophes with a fast, dispassionate eye, you can stay ahead of the curve and not be that guy who writes that e-mail at the end of every season.
Under the Boards
Another player stepping into the fantasy limelight via a star's injury? Marreese Speights turned his upside into production versus the dilapidated Suns to the tune of 24 points on 11-of-16 shooting from the field. Thaddeus Young (25 points, 5 rebounds, 2 3-pointers) is also making the most of his increased touches (and more up-tempo system). I told you D.J. Augustin was in for a nice night, and for once I was right (17 points and 4 rebounds in 38 minutes played). He'll be a factor as long as Raja Bell remains sidelined. He didn't break 20 points, but Hakim Warrick had one of the more impressive nights of his fantasy career, as he posted a rare double-double (15 points, 14 rebounds, 3 blocks). Boris Diaw continues to have one of the most underrated seasons in fantasy (15 points, 9 assists). With Chris Paul on the shelf, the Hornets had no answer for Mike Conley (18 points, 8 assists), who did a great job dictating the tempo for the Grizzlies. As anticipated, Darko Milicic's (22 minutes) return will cut into Marc Gasol's numbers (10 points, 10 rebounds in only 23 minutes).

While public transportation-related businesses were encouraged by President Obama's State of the Union commitment to investing in America's infrastructure, new research shows that they remain deeply concerned about the negative effects that a delay in passing a long-term surface transportation authorization bill will have on their businesses. In a survey released by the American Public Transportation Association (APTA), 80 percent of private sector businesses surveyed indicated that the level of federal investment in public transportation has a large influence on business revenue. The survey also showed a grim outlook for the industry if federal surface transportation authorization is further delayed, with 84 percent of respondents predicting revenue losses. The consequences on jobs could be significant with 50 percent predicting that they will lay off employees and 49 percent predicting hiring freezes if Congress fails to enact a well-funded, long-term bill soon. "As unemployment rates stay stubbornly high, public transportation is a smart investment that creates and supports jobs, while improving our communities," said APTA President William Millar. "Conversely, the survey shows that Congress' delay in passing an authorization bill has the opposite effect — forcing private sector businesses to lay off employees and to invest overseas." The association also notes research that shows every dollar invested in public transit yields four dollars in economic returns and every $1 billion invested creates or supports over 36,000 jobs. Patrick Scully, chief commercial officer of Daimler Buses North America, said that an authorization bill would help stabilize the industry. "Congressional action would provide much needed certainty to our industry to allow transit agencies the needed time horizon for long term capital planning, which in turn should turn into vehicle procurements and thus would help our business know how much we can invest in human capital and other resources," he said. Jeffrey Wharton, president of IMPulse NC, which manufactures overhead electrification contact systems for light rail and trolley systems, reiterated that investments in public transit will help to put America to work. "With increased federal investment, we hope to increase our payroll, while also expanding jobs for our sub suppliers," said Wharton."The uncertainty and continued delay in authorization is having a serious negative impact on all businesses, including DRI," said David Turney, CEO of the DRI Corp., which makes digital communications technology that is used in transit systems. "We can't afford to delay any longer. We are increasingly turning to international markets instead of the United States because of the delay in authorization. We urge Congress to follow President Obama's lead and commit to long-term funding for public transportation in America.More than 700 of APTA's private sector businesses were surveyed for the report, with a 10 percent response rate. Investment in the public transportation industry creates and supports over 1.9 million public and private sector jobs and is a $54 billion a year industry.
At various times, the county paid too much when prices should have decreased, missed deadlines to seek damages from its contractor for alleged substandard performance and failed to accurately calculate the most basic of contract functions — cost of living adjustments.

The driver was spotted driving poorly, before slamming his brakes, causing a 90-year-old passenger to fall to the floor. According to the arrest report, the driver's blood alcohol content was more than three times the legal limit.
CarFreeAtoZ plans trips in a manner similar to Google Maps or Mapquest, but it combines different transit options, such as walking, using the Metro and biking.
Models coming on the market or in development can climb stairs, turn tight corners, make their way over trails, and are lighter and easier to maneuver than earlier generations.

Favorite thing: The most interesting point in the caves is the ride by train.
It is a narrow and light equipment,making you feel like in a natural luna park. your head will pass at a few centimeters from the rocks, here and there cut to allow the passage and prevent accidents. The speed is a compromise between emotion and time to quickly appreciate some details.
Using several segments in both ways, the different angles and the separated lines here and there, make you feel always facing something new.
- Arts and Culture
- Eco-Tourism
Time table of the visits
Favorite thing: Visits are every 2 hours from 10 AM to 6 PM. In the low season, there are fewer visits. The visit lasts 90 minutes.
Price for the visit of the cave is 16 €
Price for the visit of the vivarium is 6 €
Price for the visit of the cave and vivarium is 19 €
- Eco-Tourism
- Hiking and Walking
Tourist Office
Favorite thing: The main tourist information office can be found in the town centre on Titov trg which is the main square where the road leads to the cave entrance. I popped in to get a map of the town but they don't exist. You don't actually need one as there's not much to see in the town itself. The girl there speaks very good English and is rather pleasing on the eye ;-) I asked how far is it to the cave entrance as it says it's roughly 1.5-2km in Lonely Planet but she said it's only about 800m-1km so it's easily walk-able.
A Little Train Ride
Fondest memory: As we entered the caves there was a little train to take you deeper into the series of caves. Given the fact that we had actually travelled to our holiday across Eurpoe by train, it was a joy to take another train journey. These trains are run by electric to minimise the pollution within the caves.

Travel Information
- New Cross Gate
AboutSite specific art project 16th October 2013 19th March 2014 Curated by Cristiana Bottigella & Tisna Westerhof Harts Lane Studios is proud to present âLet Me Go To The Window', a compelling new site specific art project created for and in response to the gallery window. The ordinary windows in our houses demarcate a pervious boundary between inside and outside, between private and public this boundary can be crossed by looking through the window from either side. From October 16th 2013 until the end of March 2014, ten selected artists will create site specific and temporary public artworks. Every two weeks a new artist will engage with the one and only window in Harts Lane as a platform to evoke, celebrate and inspire the passers-by and local residents of New Cross Gate. The ten installations, social and spatial interventions are created in response to Sandberg's iconic poem âAt A Window' where the intimate relation between the window and its surroundings create a dialogue touching some of the hidden pressures and treasures of city life. The programme will feature: 16 Oct 30 Oct | Katie Ellen Fields 30 Oct 13 Nov | Samuel Little 13 Nov 27 Nov | Ash Fitzgerald 27 Nov 11 Dec | Dannielle Hodson 11 Dec 25 Dec | Bill Purnell 2014 8 Jan 22 Jan | Alia Zapparova & Mia Cuk 22 Jan 5 Feb | Teresa Leung 5 Feb 19 Feb | Helen Flanagan 19 Feb 5 Mar | Emma Bagley 5 Mar 19 Mar | Janet Currier Facing onto the street (Harts Lane), the artworks can be viewed 24 hours a day by the general public.

… returned from my local printer yesterday with a couple of surprisingly-heavy boxes full of postcards advertising Phonogram, each one sporting the B-side strip. Now we want to get them into the hands of people.
This is where you come in.
While we're planning to get the postcards to local comic shops directly, for our initial sending out we'd like to stay true to our punky fanzine roots and get other humans involved.
Basically, do you have a local comic shop you enter regularly? Would you be willing to take a small pile of these lovely /objects d'art/ in and ask the proprietor to have on the counter? Do you wish to join arms in a grand fraternity of Phonogam and chant to our dark and nameless Gods?
If the answers to all of the above are yes, drop me a line at Kieron dot Gillen at Gmail dot com and I'll get the little parcel in the post to you.
5 thoughts on "The PHONOGRAM Preview"
Son. Of. A. Bitch.
I read through the first few pages thinking "eh, amusing, nothing I'm going to spend my money on…". And then I had to read the last 3. Fuck me.
If a suitable opportunity ever provides itself, ask Gillen about a little legal difficulty he had during his sandwich year at
uni. It gave rise to one of his better early (pre turning pro) pieces.
I fought the law and the lawyer won.
Britain or US?
Can help if it's Britain
'Twas the US, 96-97, and I believe any and all charges were dropped.
At least, that's what he claimed.

Jordan Rally - Raikkonen: Jordan 'best event' yet
Kimi Raikkonen labelled his sixth place on last week's Jordan Rally as his best performance in the World Rally Championship.
Citroen-driving Raikkonen was looking likely to equal his best ever WRC result - fifth on last year's Rally of Turkey - until a penultimate-stage puncture dropped him behind Matthew Wilson's Ford at the finish.
"I have been pushing harder on this rally and trying to be quicker," said Raikkonen. "The driving has felt better. On the final morning, it didn't start very well, but I was happy with the afternoon. Okay, it was a shame for the puncture, but we're moving forward now, this felt like my best event."
Raikkonen will now miss the next two WRC rounds, returning to the series in time for the Acropolis Rally in June.
"We have a test before then," said Raikkonen. "I'm not worried about the gap, it is what it is, we didn't do any [driving] over the winter."
Last week's Jordan Rally was Raikkonen's 15th World Rally Championship outing and the eighth on which he's scored points. The Finn has scored on all three WRC rounds he has contested this season.

In "Inverness," a botanist finds something like faith through an encounter with an obsessed loch Ness Monster hunter.
People like me believe it's like the loch Ness monster: widely spoken about, but nobody has seen it for years.
Before he started singing, he was the guitarist for the band loch Ness.
late 14c., from Gaelic loch "lake, narrow arm of the sea," cognate with Old Irish loch "body of water, lake," Breton lagen, Anglo-Irish lough, Latin lacus (see lake (n.1)). The Loch Ness monster is first attested 1933.

Overhead electric power lines present a serious electrocution hazard to personnel in a variety of industries. Overhead lines, typically uninsulated conductors supported on towers or poles, are the most common means of electric power transmission and distribution, and are exposed to contact by mobile equipment such as cranes and trucks. Equipment contacting energized overhead lines becomes elevated to a high voltage, and simultaneous contact by personnel of the "hot" frame and ground can cause serious electrical shock and burns. Industries where risk of these accidents is greatest include construction, mining, agriculture, and communications/public utilities. An estimated 2300 accidental overhead line contacts occur each year in the US. This paper describes a practical low-cost concept to detect actual contact of mobile equipment with a high-voltage line and provide a warning. Accident statistics indicate that more than half of the fatalities could be prevented by such a device

Sponsors of the event were Headquarters Men's Haircuts in Fort Myers and The Training Box Crossfit in Estero. Fowler Firearms, Shoot Straight, The Beacon Beachfront Inn and Cruise Naples were in-kind sponsors, offering prizes to the best bowlers.
It started with a call from Deputy Mike Elkady earlier this year, "I want to help the kids in Big Brothers Big Sisters." In a matter of months, he recruited hundreds of his colleagues to bowl, with all of the money going to help support one-to-one mentoring in Lee County.
"I had never planned an event like this before," Elkady said. "All I knew was that I wanted to do something to help."
Elkady recruited 40 team captains from the Sheriff's Office who formed teams of six players each. Mentors and their "littles" in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program also came out to bowl.
"This first year surpassed our expectations," said Big Brothers Big Sisters Lee County Community Resource Director Angela Melvin. "We ended up selling out the last shift and couldn't handle any more bowlers."
More than money was raised at the event. A total of nine volunteers stepped up and said they wanted to be mentors to children in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program.
"The highlight of the day was the interaction between the children and some of the deputies," Melvin said. "We hope this is the beginning of a solid partnership with the Lee County Sheriff's Office."
Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Sun Coast provides one-to-one mentoring relationships to children ages 6-18 years old throughout the gulf coast of Florida in Sarasota, Manatee, DeSoto, Highlands, Hardee, Charlotte, Lee, Collier, Glades and Hendry counties. Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Sun Coast holds itself accountable for children in its program to achieve measurable outcomes, such as educational success; avoidance of risky behaviors; and higher aspirations, greater confidence and better relationships. The organization provides children facing adversity, often those of single or low-income households or families, with strong and enduring, professionally supported one-to-one mentoring relationships that change their lives for the better, forever.

For the first several scenes of "The Woodsman," we know that Walter has recently been released from prison but we don't know the nature of his crime. Seeing the film at Cannes last May, I walked in without advance knowledge and was grateful that I had an opportunity to see Kevin Bacon establish the character before that information was supplied. His crime has now been clearly named in virtually everything written about the film, and possibly changes the way it affects a viewer.
Walter is a pedophile. The film doesn't make him a case study or an object for our sympathy, but carefully and honestly observes his attempt to re-enter society after 12 years behind bars. Maybe he will make it and maybe he will not. He has a deep compulsion, which is probably innate, and a belief that his behavior is wrong. That belief will not necessarily keep him from repeating it. Most of us have sexual desires within the areas accepted by society, and so never reflect that we did not choose them, but simply grew up and found that they were there.
Bacon is a strong and subtle actor, something that is often said but insufficiently appreciated. Here he employs all of his art. He seems to have no theory about Walter and no emotional tilt toward his problems, and that is correct, because we do not act out of theories about ourselves, but out of our hopes and desires. Bacon plays the character day by day, hour by hour, detail by detail, simply showing us this man trying to deal with his daily life. Larger conclusions are left to the audience.
He gets an apartment across from a grade school playground. He did not choose the location; he found a landlord who would rent to an ex-con. He gets a job in a lumberyard. No one there knows about his crime, but a co-worker named Mary-Kay (Eve) doesn't like him and senses something is wrong. Lucas, his parole officer (Mos Def) visits regularly and is hostile, convinced it is only a matter of time until Walter lapses.
There is a woman at work named Vickie (Kyra Sedgwick), who is tough-talking but has an instinctive sympathy for the newcomer. She's a fork-lift operator, a realist. They start to date. We know, but she doesn't, that this may be the first normal sexual relationship Walter has had. She is not only his girlfriend but, in a way, an unknowing sex therapist. He eventually feels he has to tell her about his past. How she deals with this, how she goes through a series of emotions, is handled in a way I felt was convincing.
Mary-Kay finds out the truth about Walter, and posts a Web site at work. His privacy is gone. There are other developments. Watching the playground through his window, for example, he becomes aware of a pedophile who is obviously hoping to find prey there.
The film has a crucial scene involving Walter and a young girl named Robin (Hannah Pilkes). Without suggesting how the scene develops, I will say that it is so observant, so truthful, that in a sense the whole film revolves around it. There is nothing sensational in this film, nothing exploitative, nothing used for "entertainment value" unless we believe, as I do, that the close observation of the lives of other people can be -- well, since entertaining is the wrong word, then helpful. It is easy to present a pedophile as a monster, less easy to suggest the emotional devastation that led into, and leads out of, his behavior. The real question in "The Woodsman" is whether Walter will be able to break the chain of transmission.
The movie is the first film by Nicole Kassell, a recent graduate of the NYU film school, who wrote the screenplay with Steven Fechter, based on his play. It is a remarkably confident work. It knows who Walter is, and to an extent why he is that way, and it knows that the film's real drama exists inside his mind and conscience. This is not a morality play but a study of character -- of Walter's character, and of those who instinctively detest him, and of a few, including Vickie and his brother-in-law Carlos (Benjamin Bratt), who are willing to withhold judgment long enough to see if he can find redemption.
The reason we cannot accept pedophilia as we accept many other sexual practices is that it requires an innocent partner, whose life could be irreparably harmed. We do not have the right to do that. If there is no other way to achieve sexual satisfaction, that is our misfortune, but not an excuse. It is not the pedophile that is evil, but the pedophilia. That is true of all sins and crimes and those tempted to perform them: It is not that we are capable of transgression that condemns us, but that we are willing.
"The Woodsman" understands this at the very heart of its being, and that is why it succeeds as more than just the story of this character. It has relevance for members of the audience who would never in any way be even remotely capable of Walter's crime. We are quick to forgive our own trespasses, slower to forgive those of others. The challenge of a moral life is to do nothing that needs forgiveness. In that sense, we're all out on parole.

Falls at the last hurdle
written: 18 Jul 2013
"Heart of Thomas" is defiantly a manga that will create mixed opinions. I decided to buy this manga after reading "A Cruel God Reigns" by the same author, as this manga was apparently like a 'kids version' of it. I did indeed enjoy this manga, but I do not think that it holds a candle to Hagio's la... See full review

This restaurant needs a major outside remodel. Especially the entrance. We almost didn't go in. But, it was convenient and offered a late morning breakfast (hard to find mid-week). Inside was more pleasant. Service fine. Had the Irish Benedict.
Very affordable and tasty. Waitress was nice and attentive. Food was cooked in reasonable time and matched expectation. Will be coming back.
Real diner experience - we had breakfast there two mornings in a row and had a really good typical breakfast. We went there the first day because we wanted a late breakfast and no other place was offering it. Good service, although the second day the waitress was a little slow in the coffee department. There were a couple of...
We ate there twice during our recent vacation. The overall experience was ok. The food was hot, the service attentive, overall it was an good breakfast experience for our family. There was no waiting like at other locations so we were able to get in and get to the beach in a decent amount of time.
The service was bad but the food was even worse - is it even a qualified chef that woks here - Will NEVER be back!!!
Heavenly? It was more like Hell! Torturous! Worst wait staff I have ever seen, and the food is sub-standard. Don't ruin your day. Stay away.
This Morning we walked into Heavenly for Breakfast. The Girl told us to sit down, She walked by us 3 times didn't even acknowledge us . We sat down before another couple she went over there brought them Menu's and Coffee. She finally comes over to us Half Heartedly says hello to us Put down the paper and silverware ,...
no customer service skills what so ever...waitress rude and clueless. I. asked for my streak well done they bring it pink. some like it like that but I DON'T. they re cooked my same steak instead of giving me a new one. I Will never come here again. save your money go to McDonald's...
I hope I am reviewing the same restaurant which is now called Heavenly Family Restaurant and directly across the street from The Cove. We stopped here as a somewhat last resort since our intended destination was not open yet, and another place we stopped at was more for take-out. Since we were staying at The Cove, we decided this was...
Went there for breakfast and I have never seen this my waitress well the only waitress was bussing, serving and washing the dishes. The food was ok but it was over price. The new owners need to step up and do better or they will definitely be going out of business
