The Earthway Optional Seed Plate 60010 is for those who love to grow their own food using a garden seeder.

With these seed plates you use the correct one for the seed you are planting and you simply walk using your garden seeder, and it they allow the seed to come out. Planting is easier than ever when using the Earthway Optional Seed Plates.

Confession: I fell asleep in the 7th inning last night. I tried valiantly to stay up and watch the game. But my MLB.tv buffers so much (thanks, cheap internet!) that I fell asleep between the parts of the game I actually got to see. Needless to say, I was delighted to wake up this morning and check the box score (yeah, that's the first thing I did). It sounds like I missed a heck of a rally. And another campaign by A.J. Pierzynski to get me to love him. I'm almost there. I really am. And what's not to love? All he does is show up and play hard. He's handled our pitching staff well, and he keeps hitting and driving in runs. Ozzie Guillen used to say Pierzynski was a guy you hate to face and hate a little less if he's on your team. But I haven't found anything to hate so far. Last night, he had his best RBI of the season with a 7th inning single and a 9th inning solo home run to put the Rangers over the top. And give Rangers fans half-price pizza today, which was probably a go

The most recent North Korean nuclear test is the most dangerous of the three to date. How the international community responds, in both word and deed, will say much about the world we live in. And whether the Chinese like it or not, how they respond will speak volumes about what kind of role China will play in global governance.
While details are not yet fully known, the test suggests substantial progress on the part of North Korea's scientists in increasing the yield of their weaponry. The October 2006 test suggested the possibility of a faulty design, while there were questions about whether the 2009 effort was even nuclear in nature.
But North Korea's test this month was by all measures the real thing. Moreover, though it is hard to evaluate North Korean bluster on these occasions, there appears to be reason to be concerned that North Korean scientists have also made progress in miniaturizing their design, a step needed to mount a nuclear device on a missile.
Most worrisome of all, we cannot rule out that North Korea may have succeeded in enriching uranium to weapons-grade levels. We have scant information about this, beyond some limited information about international acquisitions and some detection of traces of highly enriched uranium (HEU) on materials brought out of North Korea. If North Korea is using HEU in its bomb design, we have little knowledge about where it comes from and how much of it they have, or could have in the future.
There are some who would urge that we all remain calm (good advice in most circumstances) and somehow take comfort in the fact that North Korea still faces many serious technical hurdles before it can successfully add nuclear weapons to its considerable conventional arsenal. After all, it took the United States 12 years to mount a weapon on a missile.
But all indications are that the North Koreans have accelerated their testing schedule and have made nuclear weapons a top priority. North Korean propaganda is not always a reliable indicator, but the recent upswing in attacks on the U.S., including a bizarre video to the tune of "We are the World" should not be completely laughed off. Gone are the hopes that the boy-dictator Kim Jong Un and his regents are more interested in economic development than they are in following the Kim dynasty's traditional military-first policies.
North Korea's latest nuclear test is thus a test in many senses of the word. For starters, it tests whether the 43-year-old Non-Proliferation Treaty is still viable. After all, the NPT's objective is to "prevent the spread of nuclear weapons and weapons technology, to promote cooperation in the peaceful uses of nuclear energy, and to further the goal of achieving nuclear disarmament and general and complete disarmament." Some might say that just two new wannabes, North Korea and Iran, is not so bad. But when it comes to nuclear weapons, even one is more than enough.
The latest detonation also tests whether the world can make addressing North Korea's dangerous aspirations a priority by uniting around a common policy that is more than rhetorical in its condemnation. One thing we know about the North Koreans is that, unless they can use such rhetoric in their own propaganda (they got far more traction out of former U.S. President George W. Bush's infamous "axis of evil" remark than he ever did), they simply don't care what is said about them.
Similarly, threatening North Korea with isolation, the hardy perennial of diplomatic pressuring, does not work, because isolation is exactly what the North Koreans want. What the international community needs to do is to come together on a program of action aimed at producing a result.
Economic sanctions alone are dubious against the world's most sanctioned country. And threatening more sanctions in the future raises the question of why those sanctions have not already been imposed.
In recent days, U.S. President Barack Obama's administration has done well to encourage countries big and small to speak out. Clearly, no single country can solve this problem. But encouraging countries to make statements and adhere to the sanctions regime will not get us to the goal that we need to achieve.
Every country needs to feel the threat from North Korea, and thus to feel the need to participate in addressing it, regardless of their relationships with or attitudes about the U.S. Enmity toward the U.S. should not translate into forbearance toward North Korea.
There are also those – a dwindling minority, fortunately – who continue to suggest that more needs to be done on the negotiating track. In fact, that track should remain open, but no one should be under the illusion that negotiations are somehow the missing piece of the puzzle. North Korea looked at every offer on the table during the six-party talks that began in 2003 – a peace treaty, economic and energy assistance, and membership in a regional association – and walked away.
Similarly, bilateral requests that North Korea had made for years, such as repeal of its designation by the U.S. as an enemy in the context of the "Trading with the Enemy Act," once delivered, were dismissed as unimportant. Such offers remain on the table, gathering dust, but it has been entirely North Korea's decision not to pursue them.
Finally, the real test here may be not so much what the world will do, but rather what China, North Korea's sole remaining ally, will do. No one expects China to resolve this problem by itself. But the world is watching China and its incoming leadership for clues about what kind of member of the international community China really aspires to be.

Not exactly what the Pope wants to hear but neither he nor the Vatican appears to be giving up. The papal visit to Turkey, planned for the end of November, is going ahead. At least for now.
Many quarters of that predominately Muslim country still seethe over Benedict's remarks, and there are very real fears the pope's visit will lead to violent demonstrations. But there is also a sense that the intensity of the anger will drop somewhat by then and some senior Turkish leaders say the trip may even help repair the damage.
The head of Turkey's foreign affairs committee, Mehmet Dulger, told The Associated Press: "His trip will provide a window of opportunity to rephrase what he said, to show that he does not accept the negative stereotypes of Islam often found in the Western world."
Some have questioned the decision to press ahead with the Turkey trip. There is still a great deal of anger and, in some circles, hatred, directed at the pope. It seems as if one of the last places his holiness should go. But the possibility for a significant first step in the healing process is as real as the danger.
It will most certainly be a leap of faith for this embattled pope.

Today, I am revisiting some of my Easter tablescapes from the past.
Wednesday, March 25, 2015
Wednesday, March 27, 2013
This table was set for an Eastertime tea party.
The second table I'm sharing is for Easter dinner. This tablecloth has so many different colors, and I think I may have used all of them in this "non pastel" Easter setting.
Plates: Bunny Toile by J. Willfred; Country Plaid by Fitz and Floyd
I am partying at Cuisine Kathleen's for Let's Dish Wednesday, Between Naps on the Porch for Tablescape Thursday, and Festive Friday Fiesta at The Home Girl.
Wishing all of you a joyous Easter weekend. laurie

continued Her days might not have been so enjoyable (or productive) if she hadn't worked with "some amazing coworkers."
"We've really been able to handle whatever workload we've been given, kept our eyes focused on the goal which is really to educate children," said Newton. "We also had laughs; we've enjoyed ourselves along the way."
The school district has become like her second family.
"I feel like we've really been able to connect with each other enough to care for each other and been there for people when they've had times of need," said Newton. "We've worked but we've also had time to experience each other's lives and to care about people."
The superintendents have also treated her work family with care. Newton said she'll never forget eating lunch with "the girls" on the back steps one day and coming inside, giggling and brushing ants off their clothing.
"The next week there was a picnic table sitting out there. [The superintendent] had bought us a picnic table," said Newton.
That bond is something she still hasn't gotten enough of, even after all these years.
"The time has gone so quickly," said Newton.
Her love of people, whether it was a caller or a colleague, is what kept her going day after day, year after year.
"I'm a people person. … They've not always been as friendly, as open as you might want them to be but I've found that in talking with them you can kind of get to their need, whatever that might be," said Newton.
She's humble about spending nearly four decades at the helm of the district's phone system, but she also knows it's something to be proud of.
"I feel I've been dedicated. I know I've rarely used sick time," said Newton. "I've been here to make the process move, whether it be handling the bills or typing up the reports. I'm more or less the middleman."

If you're fuming about gas prices as you fuel up to hit the road for a summer getaway, think twice before pouring something in your tank or installing something on your engine that promises to improve your fuel efficiency.
Chances are it won't make much difference, if any, in your vehicle's performance. And it actually could hurt your car.
"Even though gas prices go up in the summer, the Environmental Protection Agency has not found any product that significantly improves gas mileage, and some could damage a car's engine or increase exhaust emissions," the Federal Trade Commission said last month in naming gas additives one of the top summer scams and frauds.
The agency suggests taking a skeptical look at products that claim they'll improve gas mileage. It says ads for these products seem to be more prevalent at times when gas prices are high — as they are now — but warns the savings are small even for the few products that have been found to work.
Claims that should make you put on the brakes include supposed endorsements from the federal government and promises that your fuel economy will rise by a specific percentage or number of miles per gallon.
The EPA requires fuel additives to be registered but it doesn't endorse them or test them for engine efficiency, emissions benefits or safety. Manufacturers are required only to report the chemical composition along with information about certain technical, marketing and health effects.
A list of registered additives is available at http://www.epa.gov (search for "list of registered fuel and fuel additives").
The registration process does not include checking the product's claims, meaning the EPA doesn't determine whether the fuel additive works as advertised.
"Do not assume that because a fuel additive has been registered with EPA that this implies anything about the safety, benefits, or claims made by the manufacturer," the EPA warns on its website.
The same goes for gadgets you can install on your car's engine, emission system, fuel system or exhaust system.
The FTC says the EPA has evaluated or tested more than 100 "alleged gas-saving devices" and "has not found any product that significantly improves gas mileage."
Marketers of those products may apply for EPA testing, but very few have done so in the past decade. Those test reports also are available at http://www.epa.gov (search for "aftermarket retrofit device evaluation program").
If a device isn't listed, that means the EPA has no information about the impact it will have on your vehicle. Some additives also have been tested through that program.
The most recent test was done in 2005. I can only presume marketers aren't lining up to have their devices tested because those that already have gone through the program generally didn't fare well.
The EPA says most devices it tested "had a neutral or negative effect on fuel economy and/or exhaust emissions."
That doesn't mean they're all worthless, though.
Tests in 1999 on PetroMoly HP Motor Oil showed a 3 percent improvement in highway fuel economy and 2 percent improvement in city fuel economy, which the EPA says were "statistically significant improvements for testing a single vehicle."
The EPA warns to be suspicious of several specific types of devices, including those that turn water into fuel.
"There are many advertisements about using the energy from your car's battery to split water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen gas which is then burned with your fuel. EPA has received no credible and complete data showing a positive fuel economy benefit from these devices."
It warns that the installation instructions for some equipment call for adjustments that would be considered "tampering" with a vehicle's emissions control system, something that's prohibited under the Clean Air Act and punishable by a fine.

But somebody in my guild just out of nowhere sent me 100g in the mail. I didn't even ask for it at all. He said his main is a druid which is why he did so. Nobody else was given the same reward, and I am basically the only druid in the guild. We have two others but they are like ~20ish and don't come online much.
I've paid it forward in similar ways though not to that much of an extent. I've had a level 10 druid unknown to me ask me for a gold, and I just gave it to him just because he was a druid. Anybody else I would have said hell no.
Also prior to the lunar festival thing, I never saw anybody die in moonglade (during the festival its a big boneyard though.) My very first trip there on a pvp server, a skull druid just waved to me.
Nah this was months ago, way before lunar.
I have guild members gold before, when needed, but it has nothing to do with them being a certain class..its because they are my guildies.
I would never give someone that I didnt know 10G...infact I hate gold beggars.
Ill help anyone out on quests if needed but giving out gold to randoms is where I draw the line.
I have worked at my professions and earned my money.
I have just forked out 1000G for my flying mount and I worked my arse off for it.
Its my gold and noone else is getting thier hands on it

Although, unreal engine is taking some of that thunder away right now, such a shame though, we need more variety in game engines! so hurry up ID!
I agree, Carmack is somewhat of a programmer genius, IMO
Idtech 4 was just the wrong tech for the wrong time, I believe, people were more interested in large open areas, where as idtech4, mostly showcased as rather enclosed, at least until megatexture, I think that will change a little with idtech5 though, as its easy to see with Rage, that the new engine is going to be well suited to all kinds of scenery, and has things that Unreal Engine doesnt have(go back and watch the original Rage techdemo videos, where they show the level editor aswell).

make it an option
With said box checked in the options menu, the camera won't move and will only allow zoom in/out like the originals... but with it unchecked, people who want freedom of movement can rotate/tilt/and have big zoom in/out. Honestly... after playing NeverWinter Nights and that totally badass camera... it was 'very, very' hard to get going with Titan Quest. In TQ, here I was in this 'amazingly' well done little world... flowing grass, awesome water shaders/etc... and wtf, all I can do is zoom in and out. I've noticed the weird frame rate issues when zooming in on some spots of the world, and I imagine that Iron Lore simply couldn't figure out why they were losing so many frames when the camera was zoomed in... thus most likely lost all hope of implementing freedom of view for the player, because I'm sure with the engine in it's current state, it would have killed the frames.
If it's the same case with D3s' engine, then so be it, but in all honesty, considering Blizzard freakin prints their own money with what they pull in from WoW, there are (imo) zero excuses to not give players like me the best of both worlds. And with it being an option, players like you that want to go through it oldschool like, can have it their way too.
Being a programmer, you tell me: is it truely 'that' hard to design a gorgeous engine like TQ or D3 with 'that' many highly detailed models on the screen at once, 'and' give the player full camera freedom. I noticed there really aren't that many models on the screen at once in games like NeverWinter Nights, hence my assumption...
Honestly, will a fully 3d engine, I see nothing holding them back from doing a free cam, tech wise, and I am not sure about the slowdown you mentioned, I cant recall experiencing such a slowdown myself in TQ, and yeah I cant think of any reason why itd slow down from zooming in, unless there is alot of particles flying around(I noticed in alot of games when the camera gets close to alot of particles things start to bog down a bit), that I can explain however, since whereever the particles are, they are drawing on top of the stuff behind it, so those pixels essentially are being "overdrawn"(ie, the GPU has to calculate it twice), its fine when the particles are small on the screen, since its only a few pixels that get overdrawn, however if you zoom in the particles cover more of the screen so more pixels are being written to the screen more then once, and if they cover your whole screen, 1 particle means every pixel is touched twice, 2 particles means they have to touch the pixels 3 times etc, and when you look at spell effects and the likes, you're usually talking about hundreds of particles, as to rotating the camera, that would be the same regardless.
I mean afterall it only draws whats on the screen anyway, so having the camera at a slightly different angle isnt going to change too much, the reason for the fixed camera has more to do with how things feel, in my opinion, the free camera works in NWN1/2 because it is a slower paced game, more often then not I found myself pausing and issuing individual commands to each character in my party, having a fixed camera would limit your view of the scene, since you really need to take everything in.
Diablo however is pure hack and slash, its 1 vs many, even if you get a mercenary or pets, you never control them directly, they usually do their own thing, and attack anything nearby, so having a free cam isnt as important to gameplay in this case, itll only cause gameplay to break into a slower pace.
Diablo uses pure mouse movement, theres no keyboard movement, and generally you are holding down the mouse button while running around, jaming hotkeys, clicking on enemies, with no auto attack also means you cant let go of the button to hold the right mouse button and do a quick camera movement(plus its usually used as a secondary ability hotkey).
Thats my reasoning for it all anyway, take it how you like
B. I assume you're talking about a mod for Doom3. Check these badboys out if you hadn't seen them... they're not complete
, but I can't wait to play them if they're ever finished.
I doubt this guy will ever finish this, lol... but it looks soooo badass... it'd definitely make it so I could play Doom3 for life.... this guy is thinking about random monster placement... totally in line with what I envision for what todays shooter 'should' be.
Doesn't look like they ever finished the SP for this...
Actually, I am working on the Quake 1 engine, itll be a complete standalone project, I implemented HL1 BSP(almost identical to Q1 BSP) today in order to learn the structure better, I havent gotten the lightmaps rendering properly yet, but I am not sure if I will bother, since I will be stripping out both Q1 and the HL1 support and adding Q3 BSP support, then I plan to expand the format from there.
I will take a look at those mods though, I mean thats where I started out
Q1 modding and HL1 modding(actually learnt C++ from working on the HL1 SDK....not the best way to learn :P )
C. Wow, that sounds oldschool! I'm sure you're doing it because it's fun for you and a learning experience taboot. I miss Tetris on my Gameboy... good times!
Yeah thats pretty much the only reason I am doing it, I dont have much interest in the chip8 itself, and while I am probably at a level that the chip8 is too simple of a start, it does actually give a great foundation for future emulation projects(which will give me better understanding of the more complex hardware in PCs).
D. Thank you very much for the indepth explanation... it's all coming together for me now. With how you explained it, it sounds like.... AHHH ha! I think I got what they're going to do for Doom 4... having the target framerate at 30 instead of 60 'might' give them the extra juice needed to have hordes of baddies on the screen at once!!!! That makes sense to me. I don't see them using the extra room to improve the AI, not ID anyway, lol!
Awesome, maybe we'll have a true Doom 2 remake now! with lots and lots of baddies to run through
Thats actually something I didnt think of, more enemies would be a great thing for Doom 4, and makes sense with the lower FPS target, though it does conflict with the "looking 3x as good" statement, though no doubt it WILL look better, having more enemies will limit how much they can push the graphics, but if they did it that way, I am sure itll be a better game
E. Lol, funny screenshot for sure. I've got it.. and part 2 gold. Haven't started 2, but I'm a couple levels into 3, it's been fun so far... I'm in some jungle level atm, haven't loaded it up in months though. I thought the reviews were WAY off base. Besides the engine not letting me force AA for whatever reason (thank god the engine looks good), V-Sync works and the frames are blazing fast. I think it looks great, has a really solid feel to it for a shooter, and is fun. Linear and obvious that it didn't have a huge amount of funds put into it, I think it turned out quite well considering....
Yeah, while ive heard people sad bad things about its graphics and the like, its not a bad game, and I actually reinstalled it this week since I had a cousin over who loves the SOF series, but I couldnt find my original SOF1 disc, so I installed this instead
I agree, but I disagree in that I think Doom 3 has the possibility to be the best Horror Shooter of all time. If that nightmare mod (that I linked to ^) ever comes to fruition, it'll end up being my fav game of all time. The atmosphere really gets to me when I'm there on Mars... the sounds, the placid sour look of everything, the darkness... it's the enemy placement/deployment that's holding it back... so in that sense, I think ID was 'right' on the verge of being very innovative at making the best horror shooter ever.
I truly don't understand how oversight like this happens at a top notch Video Game Company.... it's not rocket science... they had the formula 'so' close to being perfect.
WHOEVER the hell said, "lets spawn bad guys in all the time" needs to be flogged!
I cant say I disagree, I mean I did spend more time playing Doom 3 then some other games(like SOF: Payback above), and even imported the textures and normalmaps into my super old Quake1 engine(mostly riding on other peoples code, there is some talented coders who worked on Quake1 engine projects), not even sure if I have my old source code, would be interested in taking a look at it again...great, now im gonna have to hunt for it just to quench my curosity :P
Doom 3 itself though, was definently much slower paced then other shooters, especially at the time, borrowing some elements from SS2(audio logs etc), and thinking back now, they did an awesome job of keypads/computer interaction, turning your crosshair into a cursor when looking at the screens.
I also remember a video I made, which I am gonna hunt for now aswell :P

Théophile de Viau was born in April 1590, near Clairac in the Agenois province of France. He was born into a Protestant family headed by Jacques de Viau – a lawyer who had been forced to retreat to his lands in Boussères by the French civil wars. It was Jacques who began Théophile's instruction before sending him away to complete his education. Théophile was sent to the college of Nérac at around the turn of the century, followed by Montauban, Bordeaux and Saumur. In his later years as a student – from 1609 to 1611 – Théophile was more focused on exploring the freedoms of youth than on his education which, ultimately, he failed to complete. In 1611 he found lodgings with h…

"This set of address labels...MY FAVORITE!!!! The red on the label really pops with the lime border. I thought the label looked great online but looks even better in person."
"These 'wrap-around' labels are unique and fun. Whoever thot of doing something new for a return address label...kudos to you!"
"I just moved to Florida so I thought this would be perfect for sending mail home.. and it is! It's a way for me to share Florida with everyone back at home."
"I ordered 1 sleeve of this and 1 sleeve of another design and love them both! They are chic, fun and look great in person. Very girlie...with a little edge. I searched for the "perfect" address labels for a while - and found them at Tiny Prints. My order was printed fast and delivered even faster (about 6 days ahead of when I expected to receive them)!"
"I ordered these to use on my Christmas cards What a great idea. Using these "We've Moved" labels let my cards stay Christmasy. While I like this design, I wish they would have had a few more choices--especially one more holiday themed."

Note that the patent gives a more vague reference to the couplers, but data on the mixing of the solutions. The actual couplers are listed here in the PDF along with the developers needed (CD-3 and CD-6)
There will be differences between the patent and the actual current process as it was still being tweaked at the time the patent was filed. It should be close enough to give quite good results though.

Side effects were similar in all three treatment regimens. Possible side effects are anemia, low levels of potassium, low white blood cell counts and additional infections, the study authors noted.
"This study is the first ever to demonstrate that a combination of antifungal drugs can significantly reduce the risk of death from this disease," Day pointed out.
The reason for the success of this particular combination is that it quickly kills Cryptococcus, according to the author of an accompanying editorial, Dr. John Perfect, of Duke University Medical Center in Durham, N.C. "In cryptococcal meningitis, the principle is set: the rapid killing of yeasts at the site of infection translates into a better outcome," he wrote.
"Long-term success in the treatment of cryptococcal meningitis depends on how well we kill yeasts with the initial treatment regimen," Perfect added.
The study, which was funded by the Wellcome Trust and the British Infection Society, is published in the April 4 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.

Who may manage trust fund in dispute
Monies are from settlement of '92 leak at OxyChem
Lawyers are arguing over who should manage $5 million remaining in a trust fund for Robstown children who might have been affected by the OxyChem poisonous chemical leak of 1992.
More than 8,500 claims resulted in a $65.7 million class action settlement in 1995. Most of the settlement has been paid.
Lawyers were back in court Tuesday arguing whether the trust fund set up to take care of 2,800 residents under the age of 18 at the time of the chemical spill was being managed correctly.
The adults involved in the class action received between $500 to $5,500 each, and lawyers from 10 law firms took another $22 million. The remainder, some $11 million, was set aside in the Robstown Minors Trust to be doled out to individuals when they turned 18.
In Tuesday's hearing before District Judge Manuel Banales, Steve Hastings, who served as class counsel for the original lawsuit, sought to replace the company managing the approximately $5 million remaining.
Stabil Capital Management is the money manager of the trust. Hastings asked whether the company was managing the money effectively, or whether the company should be replaced with local money manager Charles Kaffie, who was involved in setting up the original trust.
Hastings also questioned Stabil's investment record regarding the trust and whether Stabil, which has recently merged with United Capital Financial Advisers Inc., with offices in New York and Houston is offering enough services to local clients.
"They have had a change in ownership and we want to make sure that there is continuing oversight and local contact for our clients," Hastings said.
Stabil executive Greg Goodman testified in defense of the company's record, saying that despite the recent merger, Stabil has maintained a presence in South Texas and has kept a tight rein on the trust.
After the hearing, Stabil's managing director, Alan McClain, said his company should remain in charge.
"The principle of it, we feel, is that we have done a good job for the kids on a fairly complex account and there is no reason for us not to see it to completion," McClain said. "There was not one complaint offered as evidence as to why we would be removed. The orders they want signed turn it over to Charles (Kaffie) without any bidding process."
Hastings said what he presented to the judge Tuesday morning is a question of whether Stabil should remain in charge of the trust's investments.
"It does not have anything to do with Kaffie," he said. "That is a decision for the judge should Stabil be removed, though I have recommended Kaffie because he has a history with the trust."
Banales is expected to render a decision at a hearing at 2 p.m. June 20.

What are three critical areas of information about specific laws regarding:
- Hiring Issues
- Wage Laws
- Taxes
- Health & Safety
- Termination
BizResearcher | Window Shopper | 11/25/2009 - 1:19 pm
I am not sure I understand your question. Information about all the topics you mention can be obtained from the U.S. Department of Labor. Their web site offers a wealth of information. Health and safely issues are covered by OSHA, a division of the U.S. DOL. Also check with your state department of labor to learn about state issues that may differ from federal ones. States sometimes have more stringent requirements than federal ones.

A Real QB Would Make A Difference.
Posted September 30, 2013
Lets not kid ourselves and try to make out Vick's game against the Broncos as some kind of good thing. He was frankly terrible at best. Some may wish to praise him for running to get out of jams, but in reality he was in jams, because he held onto the ball too long. He's already has been sacked half as many times as he was last season. His completion percentage has rapidly declined over the past few games, and it's clear when you watch him go up against other quality NFL quarterbacks he doesn't measure up to them. Quality play at the QB position will stabilize an offense. Right now Vick doesn't trust what he sees. He doesn't recognize what the defenses are showing him, and he is lacking confidence in his ability to throw the ball. He's patting and hesitation instead of dumping off to hot routes. He's having issues with touch often putting too much zip on passes that need accuracy. He's not improving and at this point doesn't seem like the best option for the offense we all thought he would be. Now he may not be as much of a liability as some other positions on this team ( the entire special teams, most of the defense, Riley Cooper, and Brent Celek to name a few), but the honest truth is he isn't making them better right now either. It's funny that many are already wondering if Kelly's offense has become predictable. Ironically many of us were asking this same question about Reid's offense last season. So what are the common denominators? Vick, Jackson, and Celek. This time the coach is calling on his leader to step up and turn this team around. He's putting it on Vick's shoulders to be a leader. This will be difficult for him to do as he is struggling as well. It's time for Mike to step up and either play like a pro or fade away into obscurity. This is his last chance. There isn't another team out there who would be willing to give him this opportunity. Time is running out on him and his career.
6 Comments:
The Eagles Blitzed Manning, and he had his eyes downfield looking for the hot route. The Broncos blitzed Vick and he had his eyes on the defender. Rinse and repeat.
Why are you talking to yourself?
IDK what you mean Potter.
Oh yes you do lilfella. Sad dude. Sad.
Sorry Potter I don't get where you, your eagle pride, giantsrepeat, and all your other fake IDs are referring to, and that does include your lilfella ID as well. That must be some kind of inside you, because all of your fake IDs type it, and it still makes no sense.
Isn't it funny how suddenly receivers are open and making plays when Foles was out there? Hmmm

End of IFest?
The popular festival had a great run.
| June 6, 2014 | Updated: June 8, 2014 10:03pm
Photo By Brett Coomer/StaffStudents representing Houston's sister city Karachi, Pakistan, parade on the stage during the opening ceremony for Houston International Festival outside City Hall Friday, April 16, 2010, in Houston. This year's IFest will highlight the islands of the Caribbean. ( Brett Coomer / Houston Chronicle )
It's with both regret and nostalgia that we learned last week that the board of the Houston International Festival announced it would file Chapter 7 bankruptcy after selling off all assets of the organization and falling more than $1 million in debt.
When the predecessor of what's come to be known as IFest began in 1971 in downtown Houston as Main Street Art Happening, the center of the city was largely a ghost town on weekends, and outdoor arts and music events for the public were few and far between. The event then evolved from a spring fling to a sophisticated showcase dedicated each year to a chosen country's culture, cuisine and music.
Decades passed, and IFest created memories for a lifetime. French composer Jean Michel Jarre brought his musical laser light and fireworks show to the city's downtown skyline and an estimated crowd of more than a million in 1986. The "Rendez-Vous Houston" concert also served as a tribute to the recently lost crew of the Shuttle Challenger, one of whom, astronaut and saxophone player Ron McNair, had been scheduled to play. His sax solo was performed by jazz saxophonist Kirk Whalum.
There were also some unintentionally absurd moments, as when a tribute to Brazil included the partial recreation of a hillside shanty called a favela on the Buffalo Bayou slope. Guards then had to be stationed to keep real homeless people from taking up residence.
As Houston grew and become more diverse, IFest's mission was absorbed by other cultural and music events. For example, the need for a festival dedicated to Japan faded when Houstonians of Japanese descent began staging one of their own. Outdoor popular music concerts near downtown proliferated, making it harder for IFest to attract competing talent.
The festival has had a great run, but the city it has enriched has changed with the times.
We'd love to see the show go on, but if new support and funding can't be found, we offer a fond and grateful farewell.

Cà du Mirko cozy well located studio-apartment Calasetta, Sardinia, Italy
Additional Location Information
Calasetta, the Sulcis Archipelago and the mainland Sardinian coastline (Palma's Gulf) opposite its three island of Sant'Antioco, San Pietro and Isola Piana are rich in flora and fauna, while the beaches and coves in the area are surrounded by crystal clear seawater.
Sant'Antioco Island is absolutely worth to visit and discover.
The unspoiled landscape, the easy-going local people, the fabulous traditional food and the island's simple lifestyle all combine to relax the visitor's mind and delight the senses.
Emeraldine sea and white beaches, cliffs, grottos and amazing landscapes visible both by land as by sea make the island perfect for sunbathing, dive and enjoy.
Out of the touristic mainstream, Calasetta is enjoyable even during high season peak, but the sunny and mild weather allows guests to visit the island even in the low season (October, November, December, March and April), and appreciate the richness of flora like wild orchids and mediterranean bush and vegetation, or fauna like wild birds as flamingos, herons, hawks and buzzards.
Calasetta is located on the tip of Sant'Antioco Island which is linked by a bridge to main Island Sardinia, so it's easy to drive to Calasetta coming from elsewhere in Sardinia.
The closest major airport is Cagliari's Elmas International Airport which is a 70 minute drive away.
The airport provide a very convenient train shuttle to Carbonia Serbariu Railway Station, the trip takes 50 minute.
We can arrange for our guests a taxi / van service from and to both Carbonia Station and/or Cagliari Airport.
There are many ferry services linking Sardinia to mainland Italy throughout the year particularly during the summer high season. The closest port of arrival is Cagliari. The port is at walking distance from the Railway station, providing trains to Carbonia Serbariu. We can arrange for our guests a taxi / van service from and to both Carbonia Station and/or Cagliari port.
Calasetta is one of the two municipality on the Island, a nice and peculiar fishermen's village located on the north west cape of the Island, surrounded by crystal seawater.
The village of Calasetta was founded in 1770 by colonist from Genoese origin that were leaving the island of Tabarka in Tunisia, where they stayed for almost two centuries. The village is inhabited all year around by 2900 people and lives mainly on fishing, agriculture, sailing and tourism.
People here keep both mediterranean and Genoese tradition in a peculiar combination which mixes Cus Cus with Italian cuisine and flavors.
The houses is located in the very center or a stone throw away from the village center, close to the Savoy Tower the port and the main square.
The port of Calasetta developed thanks to the wine trade and alongside with commerce on products from tuna fishing. The port is now home to many fishing boats and sailboats, particularly the typical wooden boat with square sail, so-called "Latin".
You can walk to the port to find fresh fish in the late morning when fishermen came back from sailing or to rent a rubber dinghy to sail around. You can also go to the ferry terminal and ship to San Pietro Island for dinner and enjoy a walk in the nice small town of Carloforte.
On wednesday morning a market take place at the port, you can buy fresh vegetables, fruits, typical cheese, bread and souvenirs.
At night along the Via Roma promenade you find bars with music and the harbor promenade is alive with stalls of local products and African clothes for a walk and a funny and cheap shopping.
We can help in arranging island tours with 4WD car or boats, as well as excursions with local expert guides to arts, landscapes, birdwatching and wild orchids watching.
Car, bikes, motorbikes, rubber dinghy and boats' rental are available in Calasetta. Prices and availability depends on the season.
With a 20 minutes trip by ferry, you can reach Carloforte town on the Island of San Pietro, right in front.
We provide updated timetable and maps of the Island.

If you're reading this... Congratulations, you're alive. If that's not something to smile about, then I don't know what is." ? Chad Sugg
I love to laugh, I value honesty, and I'm all about having a good time no matter the situation. I tend to jump into things that feel right and I just go with the flow. I enjoy the company of friends, family, and others. I am definitely a compassionate person and enjoy being kind to others. It's disappointing to see so many people in society today that are angry and disrespectful to each other. One thing I have learned in life is we each have a story and I try to understand where others are coming from. I try my best to not be judgmental and I focus more on why people do the things they do vs. the actual action. With that being said, I hate to be judged. I am not a perfect person but I want to find someone who can appreciate me for everything- the good and the bad. At least from my perspective I'm a pretty good catch. I want a vocal man, someone who will stand up for himself and his family. I need communication and a strong connection with my partner. Without trust, passion, and open communication you just roommates- right? I do believe in marriage and being with one person- ONCE you've found the right one! My parents have been married happily for 25 years. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure there were bumps in the road but they have always been committed enough to work it out. I'd like to set the same example for my own children. Currently, I have to children a boy and a girl. I love them both dearly and if they are my only children so be it. However, I'm not closed to the thought of having more, although the person and the time would have to be right. Things I like: Sharing, Kindness, Conviviality, Family/ Friends, Romance, Charming, Easygoing, & Sociable People Things I dislike: Bad teeth/ Bad breath and men who view women beneath them – I need to find my partner in crime! I'm nearing graduation from nursing school and I can't wait to see what life brings me next. Since this is my second career, I am ready to get started- It's time to build the next chapter of my life!

I just adopted a labrador puppy. I've never had dogs before so this will be an adventure. Once I had salt water fish and I LOVE THEM! So beautiful, I could watch them swim all day long. Someday when I own the "right" house I'd love to have them again
Middle of the Road
I have traveled many places in my life and I enjoy doing so. I've lived in Hawaii and Germany as well as multiple places stateside. The one place I will go before I die is Fiji. I see myself relaxing in some little bungalow suspended above the water.
I enjoy all types of music from country to hip hop and RB, classical and even some good ol' 80's. Raggae and anything soothing is on my list too! I have learned to appreciate all types of music for different reasons.
In my free time I enjoy relaxing, spending time with my family, and doing new things. I love to be on the move but some weekends my couch calls my name- and when it does... I listen! The beach is wonderful, the pool is cool, and I love the sunshine!
Truthfully, I haven't gotten to that point in my life where I enjoy reading for pleasure. I am so involved in my education right now that once I'm done reading my assigned literature I have no interest in reading further.
