Take This Waltz
2012 Directed by Sarah Polley
Michelle Williams plays twenty-eight-year-old Margot, happily married to Lou (Seth Rogen), a good-natured cookbook author. But when Margot meets Daniel (Luke Kirby), a handsome artist who lives across the street, their mutual attraction is undeniable. Warmly human, funny and bittersweet, TAKE THIS WALTZ deftly avoids romantic clichés and paints an unusually true and unsentimental portrait of adult relationships.

"I'm afraid of connections."
This line of dialogue is spoken by the film's protagonist, Margot, a pretty tomboyish journalist and the type of person who only ever exists within the world of films. She is in fact talking about the connections made at airports but the line is obviously smothered in laughably unsubtle subtext just in case the audience misses writer-director, Sarah Polley's intent. Frustratingly it is representative of a film that is so on-the-nose and contrived that it is impossible to invest in this young woman's dilemma. That dilemma comes in the form of a tentative affair with her neighbour whilst the romance in her marriage has long since subsided into passion-free contentment.
Polley's debut feature, Away from Her,…
I have now been thinking about this film for a good 24 hours, and I can't decide what to write. I give up. Here's a few random thoughts:
1. Michelle Williams is amazing. Absolutely astonishing. Her character is both attractive and annoying as all get out. I don't know how she manages to give such a layered performance. She's wonderful.
2. The colors and use of light are stunning.
3. Sarah Silverman needs to do more dramatic work. She's terrific here. I tweeted her so, and thus I am sure we'll see some more drama soon. She always does what I tweet her. She trusts my judgment.
4. This movie is painful and beautiful. It's not what you expect from Hollywood -- it's about how things really work out.
5. There are flaws, but the overall emotional force and Williams's performance overshadow them.
See it. It's like, good, and stuff.
If someone were to point out my favorite thing(s) to read, even more than a great novel, it would be essays about something that affected them so deeply that they felt compelled to write about it. It can be short, or it can be 20 pages long. A great author of this approach would be Lester Bangs, who wrote beautifully indulgent music reviews in such an intensely personal way that were so resonant, that for the right reader, you might want to hug the guy for articulating exactly what music can really mean in a way that you've been trying to express yourself. I certainly didn't always agree with Bangs, but I always identified with how insanely wonderful the experience…
Straight up, this movie looks absolutely gorgeous. Some dude named Luc Montpellier is the cinematographer and I think that the Canadian government should pay this guy a salary of fifty thousand dollars a year, for the rest of his life, just because of how gorgeous this movie looks. I guarantee that Toronto has never, and will never, look better in a film. All the colors are rich & vibrant, and the camera movement is out of sight. See this movie just to see how gorgeous it looks. Now, on to the film itself.
I see the film as the idea of the Manic Pixie Dream Girl put into a real world person and how terrible that idea actually is. The character…
Part of A Film A Day
"You think everything can be worked out if you just make the right move? That must be thrilling... Life has a gap in it. It just does. You don't go crazy trying to fill it like some lunatic."
Take This Waltz is a film I wanted to love so much, but I just couldn't bring myself to ignoring all the flaws the film had. Personally, I watched this because of Seth Rogen and Michelle Williams, whom I absolutely love; in this film, and out of it. Williams gives a magnificent performance as Margot, an insecure, middle aged woman who's married to Rogen's character, Lou.
Now, I had a teacher once who said that Seth…
Review In A Nutshell:
Sarah Polley's Take This Waltz is a frustrating experience, it provides audiences with a look at the difficulties of marriage, how there will be days where one would lost that sense of spark, and everyday becomes mundane and uneventful; protagonist Margot is finding herself slowly frustrated with her position, craving for something more, which an offer does arise with her across the street neighbour, Daniel.
Polley simply didn't want the film to be your run of the mill take on marriage, friendships, and temptations; it attempts to become something much more, by attempting to flesh out the protagonist, provide her with complexities that make her feel like a real character, rather than a tool to push…

A happily married young woman finds her life turned upside down after she becomes enchanted by her new neighbour, One of the most powerful movies ive ever seen about falling for someone when your already involved with another, Michelle Williams gives a career best performance , How she didnt get a oscar nomination is a mystery, Your bascialy seeing a good woman being emotionaly pulled apart and its heartbreaking , Stunning adult drama
Not liking a movie is common for me. When I find one dull, or boring, or unoriginal, or mindless, or dumb, it's enough just to say I don't like it. But very rarely do I watch a movie and pronounce hatred for it. Take This Waltz is one of these rare occasions; it offended me in so many ways I wanted to puke. It's not a bad film. In fact, its off-beat and rather unexpected characteristic gave me the oomph to finish it and ultimately respect it. But every step of the way, I was cringing with a sad, weary disgust, whining to myself about the injustices this experience is putting me through.

A beautiful and understated movie that really hammers home how sad the song "Video Killed the Radio Star" is at its core.
"You think everything can be worked out if you just make the right move? That must be thrilling... Life has a gap in it. It just does. You don't go crazy trying to fill it like some lunatic. " (Geraldine to Margot)
There's no way I would call this a bad movie, but probably I wouldn't really call it a good movie either, though it does have some undeniable qualities. But it is ultimately just too boring. It is however another great proof that Michelle Williams is a terrific actress! It's owed to her wonderful performance that I never had to force myself to sit through the movie despite it being ultimately really boring.
"Frances Ha" comes to mind, which…
This was really insufferable. I like Michelle Williams and I don't fault her for the portions of this that don't work. A lot of it is in the dialogue and character development. She plays a dissatisfied wife, Margot) and she's supposed to be 28 (married for five years, which means that she married pretty young, by today's standards, and that could have something to do with this), but she's the most infantilized housewife I've seen in modern cinema. She's constantly saying things like, "I wuv you," uses "gay" as a synonym for "cheesy"/"sensitive," and thinks she's cuter/more endearing/adorable than she is. They guy she married, Lou (played by Seth Rogen), is similarly childish in some ways, so it's been working…
An interesting and funny relationship piece, gorgeously designed and shot. There are many possible interpretations of the film's events; my own is that much of the events are embellished into fantasy, giving the candy-coloured sheen to everything. Michelle Williams steals the show dramatically, while Seth Rogen and Sarah Silverman bring both their regular characters and their regular humour in to liven up the proceedings. There is depth beneath the humour, but the meanings will be highly subjective.
this movie hurt my feelings
Hermosa historia de amor, inlcuso cuando está el insoportable de Seth.

More details about proposed council cuts across the region have been announced.
The mayor of Middlesbrough put forward recommendations for cuts across the town yesterday evening.
They recommendations will be part of savings of 45 million pounds that the council has to make between now and 2016.
If the proposals are passed next month, there would be reductions in services providing for children, people with disabilities and older people.
However, proposals for Hemlington Library to close, as well as an end to green waste collections, are likely to be withdrawn.
Watch the report from Frances Read below.
A teenager told a court today (July 27) that he wrote about planning a violent attack at his former college so people would talk to him.
The summer holidays have got off to a very damp start. Heavy rain fell in parts of the region overnight and it's continued today.

I think Barack already used his hope n change 4 years ago and all those faded posters are falling off the walls now. The change Mitt is talking about is a change BACK to capitalism and away from this dismal experiment into socialism. I have to say that what Mitt is talking about and the specifics of his economic plans are even far far more conservative than what Bush had. Bush was sort of a quasi-moderate and even progressive in some cases so I look forward to having another Reagan in the White House where we can ALL have some HOPE and see REAL change with unemployment dropping into the 5% range again.

I love BB creams, and I so want to try it, but its really pricey. I also the Smashbox pallet, but once again, price is an issue. Everything was really expensive, did anyone else notice that the cheapest thing was the mascara, for $14? Maggie looks really pretty in the picture.

Nicki Minaj dropped by the Tonight Show with Jay Leno to promote the upcoming season of American Idol. The singer and rapper downplayed the explosive feud she had with fellow judge, Mariah Carey, in October, but seems to genuinely love Keith Urban–praising his humor and intelligence.
As far as Mariah goes, the rapper respects her talent. The battle started off with joking, but then escalated due to the passions brought to the table by both divas.
And did you know that Nicki was admitted to the famous "Fame" performing arts high school in New York City…for drama. But she failed the singing audition. She couldn't quite remember the short monologue she used to audition–only remembering the name "Perseus." Yeah. It was Hmalet! YOU"RE KIDDING. Nicki exclaimed when the crack Tonight show research team informed Jay. Oh Nicki!
Watch the interview below.

Flames Engulf Major Archeological Site in Bulgaria
A powerful fire has broken out at Golyamata Kosmatka mound in Central Bulgaria, a site of some of the biggest archeological findings here.
The flames are not yet posing a risk to the precious findings displayed inside the mound, according to initial reports.
In 2004 Bulgarian archeologists made headlines all over the world after discovering the oldest and largest Thracian tomb unearthed on Bulgarian land from beneath the Golyamata Kosmatka mound.
The archaeological team was headed by late Georgi Kitov. The excavations revealed a 13-metre long passage and two halls walled up with stones behind the facade.
The tomb amazed the archaeologists with its first-of-the-kind doors made of marble and decorated with human figures, iron nail imitations and blue-end-red sculptural ornaments.

KITCHENER ——When Thomas Slabon was a little boy, he pretended to be a priest conducting mass around the bird bath in his grandmother's backyard at family dinners.
At an aunt's wedding, he took crackers and distributed them to people as if he was giving out communion.
"As long as I can remember I have always felt this calling. It's always been with me,'' said the 17-year-old who recently graduated from St. Mary's High School.
Next month, Slabon will be entering the Society of Jesus' Novitiate in Montreal. It's a residence for men who want to be Jesuits — a religious order with the Roman Catholic Church.
The Society was founded by St. Ignatius of Loyola who, after being wounded in a battle, experienced a religious conversion and composed the Spiritual Exercises to closely follow Christ. In 1534, Ignatius gathered six young men to vow poverty, chastity, and then obedience to the pope.
It's those same three vows Slabon will be expected to take.
The journey to become a full-fledged Jesuit is the longest of any religious order. It begins with a two-year novitiate at the Montreal residence, followed by years of university and graduate studies, as well as ministry in the community. That work could be as a chaplain in a prison or hospital, or Slabon could choose to do mission work overseas. In between, there are reflective periods in which he will be expected to spend time alone in silent, contemplative prayer.
It will be 13 years before Slabon is ordained. The final vows for a Jesuit are taken five years after that.
He plans to get a PhD in philosophy, allowing him to teach religious studies and possibly work at the Vatican.
Slabon has always felt his path was the priesthood, but it wasn't until he went on a 10-day pilgrimage to Israel last October that his goal became clear.
He describes the trip as a spiritually transformative experience in which he decided not only was he going into the priesthood directly after high school, but he wanted to become a Jesuit.
He took a boat ride on the Sea of Galilee. " … To be on the same sea where Jesus walked on water and performed so many miracles was indescribably powerful," Slabon wrote in a 27-page spiritual autobiography titled, Calling My Name, as part of his application for acceptance into the novitiate.
"I think God reached out and touched my heart in a tangible way,'' said Slabon, who didn't realize how moving the trip to Israel had been until he returned home.
"Just as God has called my name for the past seventeen years, I believe He has been calling me to serve Him through His holy priesthood.'' – excerpt from Calling My Name.
The teenager admits there have been many restless nights thinking about his decision and wondering whether it's the right one. Prayer has sustained him and calmed him down, says Slabon, who prays at meals and before bed, and often would recite the Hail Mary or the Our Father while walking from class to class.
He also prayed at the school chapel, reciting the rosary every Wednesday.
Slabon said he has a close group of friends who support him and accept his decision. However most teenagers can't relate to his passion, often telling him the priesthood is a "waste of your potential" or asking him, "why don't you want to have sex?''
At his high school, Slabon was affectionately called "priest boy" and known as "boy genius." Academically brilliant, he repeatedly achieved the highest average in every class he took. Last year, he helped a teacher design a classic Greek and Roman literature course for himself.
Slabon was also heavily involved in school extracurriculars, sitting on student council and working on various committees and sitting as a student trustee on the Catholic school board.
As a young teen, Slabon had girlfriends and grew close to some but never consummated the relationship.
"Society tells us that in order to like someone you should have sex with them. That is an incredibly dangerous mindset,'' he said. "Sex is mass marketed in Western society.''
Slabon said his Catholic upbringing was instrumental in planting the seeds of his vocation but there have also been role models at his parish, St. Aloysius Church, and among his teachers at St. Mary's.
Rev. Cornelius O'Mahony, commonly known as Father Con, first met Slabon when he was preparing for his first Holy Communion.
"He was very intense," said O'Mahony. "The questions he asked were way ahead of the other kids. He took it very seriously."
O'Mahony, who now leads St. Michael's parish in Waterloo, said it's been fascinating to watch Slabon grow from "a kid who could be described as odd to a kid who was well-liked by his classmates."
Slabon's decision to enter the priesthood and the Jesuits didn't surprise O'Mahony, but he still attempted to question Slabon's convictions.
"I asked him if he was sure this was a good idea. I wanted him to have a broader experience, to go to university and live out in the big people's world," O'Mahony said. "It's important to cultivate friends, to be away from home, to date and to have your heart broken."
But by the end of the conversation, Slabon had an answer for every point and O'Mahony knew "this kid is going to make it."
O'Mahony said becoming a Jesuit is a perfect fit for Slabon, who is natural leader.
During his first five months in Montreal, Slabon will not be able to have contact with the outside world except through written letters.
"When I worry about leaving my family, I am comforted by the knowledge that I am merely moving from one family setting to another — that I am, in effect, gaining a new family without losing my old one." Excerpt from Calling My Name.
The rigour and discipline of the order will challenge him and the academia will serve him well when he chooses to teach, said O'Mahony.
"It will suit his personality. He will be pushed and challenged a lot," he said. "Whether he succeeds or not is unimportant. It will be a fantastic experience."
O'Mahony said Slabon will make a difference in many people's lives. St. Mary's religion teacher Kishanie Jayasundera agrees.
"He is the most intelligent, thoughtful, faithful and meaningful young man,'' said Jayasundera, who oversaw student council affairs and worked closely with Slabon.
Jayasundera said Slabon struggled with telling his parents he wanted to be Jesuit and enter the priesthood after high school graduation.
"I always told him: Man proposes, God disposes," she said.
Jayasundera said the Jesuit experience will be a "huge transition" for Slabon, but a tailor-made vocation for him.
"He has taught me so much. He'll say things that are so profound (about) the elements of forgiveness and leadership. He's a grown adult in the body of a 17-year-old," said Jayasundera.
Slabon said the decision to enter the priesthood has been heart-wrenching for his family.
"There have been times when I have doubted whether I am making the right decision, whether I should go to university first, whether I am called to married life, whether I am being selfish in pursuing what I believe to be my call despite the pain it has caused my family, even whether I would be able to fulfil the role of a priest given the sum of my flaws as an individual.'' Excerpt from Calling My Name.
The "deal" with his parents was always to go to university first and then enter the seminary.
After his trip to Israel, Slabon sat with his mom at a coffee shop and prepared to tell her that he wanted to be a Jesuit. But before he could open his mouth, his mother knew.
"We don't question his ability to make a decision at his age. This is not coming out of the blue,'' said his mother, Leslie Slabon. "Thomas never quite fit the mould.''
But Leslie, who also has a 15-year-old daughter Karolina, admits it's hard to understand his decision.
"He has to take a vow of obedience and they (the Jesuits) have to grant him permission to leave," she said. "The control is removed from you as a parent."
Leslie said she and husband, Karol, have adjusted to their son's calling, but Leslie, a nurse, worries about her son who is an insulin-dependent diabetic.
However, she said she's convinced her son will influence many people over the course of his life and likely bring many back to the church and the faith.
"We have joked about calling him Pope Thomas,'' she said.

By mid-July, one of the top players in the country will have a pretty good idea as to where he will be playing his college football in 2014.
Paramus (N.J.) Catholic cornerback Jabrill Peppers, No. 2 in the ESPN 150, will visit Stanford in July. Following that trip, he will have his future program in mind.
"Definitely after I visit Stanford I should have it pretty clear where I want to go," Peppers said.
The five-star cornerback is coming off April trips to LSU, Michigan and Ohio State, and while Peppers did not tip his hand, people close to the dynamic two-way athlete say Michigan has a sizeable lead of those three. He has listed Stanford as his No. 1 for several months and will visit Palo Alto before officially dropping them from the top of his list.

50 Shades of Shamus: Shades 2-5
By Angry Shrink on July 20, 2012
Oh yes, I'm serious about the 50 Shades project. Call it an homage to my love of the trilogy. Despite its so-so writing and high cheese factor, I still approve of lady porn in all its shapes and sizes. And let's face it, cute puppy pictures are their own special brand of porn - not just for the ladies! Come on gentlemen - you know you get all squishy when you see cute puppies!
Here we have the Shamus in his natural habitat of, um, the couch. Note he has captured the trophy of trophies, mommy's hair tie.
Shamus says, "You want the hair tie? Why don't you make me an offer? I noticed you got a new bag of Beggin' Strips and they really do taste like real bacon...why don't we start there hmmm?"
"No Beggin' Strips? No deal."
Shamus is an evil genius. But I still wanna cuddle him. All the time.

"There is a peace when sitting on the creek and watching the ducks or fishing"
Before the camping business, John and Judi Durham owned a restaurant; something Judi said helped mold them into great service-oriented people. The camping business is all about people, and John and Judi love the ability to get up each morning and meet others. "We wake up every day and don't know what is going to happen," Judi said. "Every day is different and exciting."
We have brought that same restaurant enthusiasm to the KOA, check out or Remember When Diner with all its memorabilia! As featured in Motorhome Magazine.
John and Judi say campers love the serenity their campground offers. "There is a peace when sitting on the creek and watching the ducks or fishing," added Judi. The repeat business they have collected over the years is a good way of reconnecting with their campers. The family-oriented park is a great getaway in a very scenic area. When a camper drives the curving road to the KOA, they encounter nature at its best. The roads twists alongside the creek and the over-hanging trees provide an unusual, relaxed atmosphere. "We camped with our daughter at this very campground when she was one year old. We bought the campground when she was 5," said Judi recalling their 1988 purchase. The pool, outdoor theater, miniature golf course, and scheduled activities keep campers busy for as long as they would like to stay. According to Judi, the creek is wide and is a fun place to canoe or fish. "Thirteen sites line the creek and we have many return campers who have their favorite sites out there," added Judi.
In October at the Hagerstown KOA is the house next door to the campground. The home took the name, "The Terror of Creekside Manor" and it is a fun Halloween activity. "We discovered the haunted nature of the house and decided to turn it into an actual haunted house," said Judi. "It is open for five full weeks in October and is open to campers and the public. We love it."

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste

The al-Quds Brigades in a statement on Monday said two Israeli soldiers were hit when its fighters attacked Israeli soldiers at the Mourage settlement and also targeted Israeli vehicles at the Kesofim settlement.
The group also claimed responsibility for the killing of an Israeli soldier in a clash on Sunday night near Saida village, close to Tulkarim.
Meanwhile, the Hamas resistance rejected Palestinian Interior Minister Nasser Yousef's call to disarm.
The minister had stressed the need to withdraw all weapons from Palestinian streets.
Hamas reaction
But Hamas spokesman, Sami Abu Zuhra, said such statements are not in line with the understanding forged by the Palestinian Authority (PA) with various groups.
Zuhra supported the PA's efforts to improve law and order, but said it should not undermine the resistance movement.

The Case for a New CRM Solution
CRM software has gone well beyond being a "good to have" capability. Senior management is now generally quite clear that this genre of software is needed. However, it also often acknowledged that companies that have deployed CRM software solutions have not obtained the benefits that were promised. When we understand the reasons for this dissatisfaction, we can make the case for a new CRM solution. See the benefits of a new CRM solution.

Sir: So, Peter Hain would force us all to vote, to protect a democracy (letter, 26 September) which he considers threatened by the "increasing exclusion of the young and the underclass". He seems to think that compelling us to turn up at the polling station would force political parties to give more consideration to policies. Such expectations of parties whose policies cannot arouse sufficient interest to get us to use our rights voluntarily verge on the naive.
The logical flaws in Hain's letter give one the impression of special pleading, from someone who has a career interest in the present arrangements. What is under threat is the parliamentary bun fight between two self- serving groups which is the substitute for democracy in this country. As a 58-year-old who has been politically active for most of his life, I can tell the MP for Neath, and his ilk, that alienation from the Westminster farce is not confined to the young.
No compulsion to vote would be required in a society where people felt that their institutions were truly democratic, and where the benefits of democracy were apparent. These benefits include the opportunity to influence the direction taken by society, equality before the law, and the right to live unmolested and in peace. None of these pertain to today's Britain. In effect, an increasing number of us have little reason to care which bunch is running the shop.
Yours faithfully,
Tom Kilcourse

Following 9/11, the U.S. government adopted some controversial new policies to help prevent terrorism here at home, including eavesdropping on Americans' phone calls, secret demands for records under the Patriot Act, and the use of FBI sting operations. The Bush Administration contends these tactics have helped save American lives, but critics say they have taken a toll on our liberties. "Security versus Liberty: The Other War" explores this urgent national debate by talking with both critics and advocates of the new policies, and telling the compelling real-life stories of people whose lives have been directly affected.

Lieberman was right to oppose increasing or allowing Egyptian soldiers to enter Sinai. He was also right in understanding how dangerous for Israel the Schalit deal is. YnetNews is reporting today that Egypt is sending fighter jets into Sinai, an action strickly forbidden in the Camp David peace accords. Ehud Barak has shown Israel up as being weak by allowing the troops to enter Sinai and supporting the Schalit deal. Netanyahu has gone against his own better judgment. The weakness shown by Israel is allowing Egypt to put its finger up to Israel and ulitmately place Israel in greater danger.

Drink by: 2012 (Add My Dates)
3,481 Tasting Notes
Most of the ratings before this were from 2009 or older. I picked up this wine in a close-out basket at a HyVee store in Mankato, Minnesota. Normally I do not buy a rosé older than two years. But for the price of $8.99, what the heck?
Indeed, this wine has lasted quite well. I'll give some credit to the screwcap enclosure, which has protected it from the everyday retailer's desire to display all wines neck up. I give the rest of the credit to the winemakers of Bonny Doon for choosing the right blend of Rhône-style grapes and processing them correctly.
While the wine has lost some of its acidity and freshness, it is still formidable enough to stand up to a basil-laden pasta primavera. Okay, so it's lightly sweet. Who cares? So are tomatoes and a host of other of the wonderful fresh vegetables that we crave and enjoy in mid-summer. In sum, it matched well to the pasta and indicated that yes, Virginia, rosés can be enjoyed at four years of age.
Salmon color. Nose: intense strawberry, some green apple, interesting and distinct note of yogurt, and a hint of tobacco. Unususal and attractive. Palate: again a kind of strawberry yogurt thing going on with some apple, a little kick of peppercorn, and a repetition of the tobacco-like quality. Lingering apple skin. Very consistent from the nose to the palate. Medium/lighter body. Solid foundation of acidity. Moderate length. I can't see what's not to like about this wine. Truly outstanding, versitile juice.
K&L Charity Event. Refreshing nose from the red wines tasted so far, veggies, wild berries, touch of smoke, more of the same on the palate, would be better if colder, medium body, cleans the palate, good complexity for a rose, medium finish.
Fresh, zesty and very French in character, with ripe strawberries, celery and dried roses on the nose that lead to flavors of the same, with a splash of white pepper on the finish. Delightfully dry, sufficiently acidic, and very refreshing.
Raspberry notes with nice crispness. Touch over priced at $14.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The top 20 of the draft order has been set and the Jaguars have the No. 3 pick -- and it sets up for the Jaguars to possibly end up with the top-rated quarterback in the draft.
Houston picks No. 1 followed by St. Louis (from Washington). The prevailing theory is that Houston, because there is enough talent to make a playoff run if the quarterback position is fixed, will go after free agent Jay Cutler. If they land him, they wouldn't take a quarterback. Instead, they could go with South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney.
St. Louis was ready to negotiate a long-term deal with starting quarterback Sam Bradford before he was injured this season and there hasn't been any indication that team officials have backed off that stance. That would mean the Rams wouldn't go quarterback at No. 2, either, and could instead opt for OT Jake Matthews from Texas A&M.
That would mean the Jaguars would be free to take Louisville's Teddy Bridgewater.
That's just one scenario. Here's another: The Texans could opt to take Bridgewater regardless of whether they sign Cutler. The Rams aren't likely to take a quarterback so they go Clowney or Matthews. The Jaguars could go pass-rusher with UCLA's Anthony Barr or take Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel.
There's a lot of time between now and the draft. And Bridgewater, Manziel and Clowney haven't even declared for the draft yet.
It's going to be a fun five months, though.
The rest of the top 10 is: Cleveland, Oakland, Atlanta, Tampa Bay, Minnesota, Buffalo and Detroit.
Jaguars mailbag: London, No. 2 RB, and Davon House

Tony Quo Vadis has resigned as chief financial officer of Partners Real Estate Investment Trust for personal family reasons and will be replaced by chief accounting officer Heather Routly, who will assume the CFO duties on an interim basis.
She will be supported by Patrick Miniutti, the Reit's president, who has extensive prior experience as the chief financial officer of publicly traded real estate investment trusts.
Quo Vadis will maintain a relationship with related entities of the Reit as board chairman of League Urban Ventures, a mixed-use real estate development company.
A permanent CFO will be appointed once the board has completed a full search process.
Routly has 15 years of experience in accounting positions of increasing responsibility with a number of public and private companies.
"We thank Tony Quo Vadis for his contribution to the Reit, and wish him well in his future endeavours," says Lou Maroun, chairman. "We have every confidence in Heather's ability to fulfil the CFO duties during this transition."
