Looks excellent to me. I know I can learn more, and I certainly know many resistive html and css coders who I plan to introduce to this resource. It sure beats trying to decipher some of the more academic W3C pages! The articles begin here [dev.opera.com].
Opera's Bruce Lawson comments:
At Opera, we've heard lots of anecdotes about the poor quality of education out there, with web design being stuck in the late 90s (mal-)practice. The fact that graduates are hitting the job market without any idea of web standards, accessibility or user-centric design is bad for our industry, bad for all industry because every organisation needs a webs site, and it's bad for the Web itself.
You should use W3C standards - Eric Law (Microsoft IE Team)
It is glad to see they are now behind W3C standards... We just have to wait for them to actually implement them rather than just talk about them.
They need a good editor to cut out the cruft from this stuff. Way, way too long-winded.
Gotta cut down on the word count, fellas, you can't bore people into using standards-based techniques.
They're asking for feedback. This is mine.
This is going to save me a lot of client education time and stop some "debates" before they get started.
After a quick skim, I was bored and a tad embarrassed to think that my repeated recommendations of the browser will/might be associated with something so dry
Unless (until?) it's very heavily edited, I very much doubt I'll be using it to back up the 'standards' approach

Young boys start Oak Park house fire
North Taylor home ravaged after kids play with lighter under porch
By Megan Dooley
The fire that destroyed much of an Oak Park home Wednesday evening was started by two second grade boys experimenting with a cigarette lighter under the front porch of the home, according to Oak Park Fire Chief Thomas Ebsen.
One of the children was a resident of the home where the fire began, and the other was a neighbor.
Firefighters were dispatched at just after 4:30 p.m., April 13, to a home on the 600 block of N. Taylor. By the time they arrived at 4:34, both the front porch and the first floor were engulfed in flames.
Ebsen said the house was an older home, and because of its construction, very susceptible to the spreading of fire. "Once the fire got into the exterior wall, it just very rapidly spread to all levels of the house," he said.
Fire companies from eight surrounding towns were dispatched to assist in fighting the powerful fire. The blaze was finally brought under control by 5:30 p.m.
"At the height of the fire," Ebsen said, "we had 18 of our companies here."
Ebsen said the assistance from outside departments was vital to successfully fighting the fire, because it allowed firefighters to combat the flames in shifts. "Everybody gets exhausted." he said. "That's why so many people coming out is great."
The fire chief said the houses to the north and south of the fire did get some minor fire damage, including melted siding on one house. But those residents were able to return to their homes Wednesday evening.
The house where the fire occurred, however, will not be livable for some time. "The house is severely damaged. All three floors, including the roof," said Ebsen. "The family will be displaced for probably quite a while, unfortunately, until repairs can be made."
Ebsen said the parents were not home when the fire began, and the two children who lived in the house were being cared for by a nanny. The nanny was in the backyard of the home with one of the children, while the other child and his neighbor friend played under the porch. Everyone escaped without injury, and no one was inside the home when the fire began.
The chief said it's difficult for children of that age to make the connection between the small flame produced by a lighter and a rapidly spreading house fire. The boys likely didn't understand what the consequences of their actions could be.
"The families are distraught over that," he said.
Police tape surrounds the fire ravaged house on the 600 block of N. Taylor and the windows have been boarded up.

What I'm doing with my life
Don't overthink this one; tell us what you're doing day-to-day.

I spend a lot of time thinking about
Global warming, lunch, or your next vacation… it's all fair game.
Conquering bucket lists of things to do and places I want to go. Not alot of time or all day but enjoy life too.
On a typical Friday night I am
Netflix and takeout, or getting your party on — how do you let loose?
Dancing, clubing, trying out a new resturant or things and staying home. Yes, nothing wrong with staying home with a glass of wine, pizza and a good movie.

I'm not sure how long I've been taking this product, but I'm guessing maybe 3 or 4 years. I tell everyone about it. I can honestly say that it saves my life. I haven't had a cold the whole time. If I do start to feel a little under the weather, I take a couple of these right away, following up, as prescribed, and if my throat is sore, I use the spray on my throat, which is also excellent and pleasant tasting. I keep a bottle of these in my desk at work, & a bottle at home at all times.

Game of the Week?
Really? You want just one?
Not this week - not this time of the year - not when nearly every game is someone's Game of the Year ... if not a Game of a Lifetime.
As the stakes get higher, our format gets bigger.
Instead of Game of the Week, we're expanding our Weekend Watch. We're giving you two - one for each day.
Today, we offer an in-depth look at five games being played Friday night - games in which nine of the 10 teams are ranked, three will decide state titles and some may help decide the RivalsHigh national title.
No. 1 South Panola figures to get a tough test against No. 37 Meridian in a Mississippi title game; No. 6 Hoover will get the same with No. 31 Daphne in an Alabama championship.
And don't forget about last year's No. 1, Don Bosco Prep. Currently No. 11, it will try to force its way into the Top 10 with a battle against its biggest rival, No. 59 Bergen Catholic in a New Jersey final.
Of course, it wouldn't be Friday Night Lights without a big game in Texas. We've got that, too, as No. 4 Trinity takes on No. 28 Coppell.
But if you think it can't get any better, come back tomorrow. Yeah, that's right. Saturday is just as strong.
Like we said. Game of the Week? Here are the games of the weekend.
TRINITY WINS IF: Brandon Carter can lead the team to victory. Trinity is far from a one-man team, but when a big play is needed, the Trojans look to QB/RB/WR Brandon Carter to deliver. So far, he has been able to do it, but each week the stakes are raised and the opposition figures to improve. Carter, a three-star Oklahoma commit, will line up all over the field and do everything for Trinity. He has to.
COPPELL WINS IF: Its defense sets the tone. The offense is a balanced attack - averaging 150 on the ground and 220 through the air - and should be able to put up 24-30 points against Trinity, so it will come down to the defense. The team has yet to yield more than 20 in a game all season. If it is able to do that again, the Cowboys may be able to pull off the mild upset.
X-FACTOR: Been there done that? Trinity is a team that is all but certain to make appearances in this round of the playoffs. Coppell has only been out of the second round once this decade, playing for a spot in the state semifinals is something new altogether. The nerves likely will be in the stomachs of Coppell. And if the team comes out and doesn't respond well to the first punch it takes, those nerves could snowball. If Coppell comes out firing, it should be a fantastic game.
PREDICTION: This game looks like it could be better than the semifinal game, where either DeSoto or Stony Point will be waiting. Coppell, which could be one of the most underrated teams in the state, has played a monster schedule. It has been shown time and again across the country that the more battle-tested teams win come playoff time. If that trend continues, then Coppell will take the victory. Trinity however is still the king of the mountain and will be hard to knock down. - Coppell 26, Trinity 23
HOOVER WINS IF: The team is not too conservative. The Bucs have been too vanilla and predictable at times this season. With running back Justin McArthur, wide receiver Jaylon Denson and do-everything Caleb Sims at the disposal of quarterback Ryan Carter, the team should be more explosive. If Hoover tries to slow play its hand against Daphne, it could see itself down and having to fight back. The team has the character to fight back, but it plays better when there is blood in the water.
DAPHNE WINS IF: Its offense is crisp. The knock on Hoover's defense all season has been the secondary. No team has been able to exploit that with consistent quarterback play, an inability to handle Hoover's defensive line or by establishing a run to open up the pass. If Daphne is able to execute on offense, it can take advantage of the lone vulnerable spot of the Bucs.
X-FACTOR: Depth. Hoover is one of the deepest teams in the Top 10, especially on the defensive front. It rotates in players on a regular basis and stays very fresh allowing for plenty of pass rush as well as run defense. If Daphne can not hold off the wave of defenders from the front seven, it will have a hard time getting anything going.
PREDICTION: Hoover is the least sexy team among the elite squads in the country. The Bucs do not do anything that jumps off the page as excellent, but with coaching has been able to rise to national prominence. Getting off the bus, this will look much like the Gadsden City game for Hoover, an eyeball-test disadvantage. The Bucs have the workman-like attitude of their coach, Josh Niblett, and his tenacity to boot. When push comes to shove, level heads prevail. - Hoover 28, Daphne 24
SOUTH PANOLA WINS IF: It limits mistakes. The team has dominated all of its opponents this season, but it has played some sloppy games, including a quarterfinal win over Olive Branch. The Tigers have a knack of rising to the occasion, and if this team is focused, it is hard to stay on the field with them. Starting fast will play a major advantage for a team that knows how to finish.
MERIDIAN WINS IF: Its defense is as good as advertised. Meridian's offense has not been forced to do much this season as the defense usually gives it good starting field position, forces turnovers and does not allow big plays. Of course, the Wildcats have yet to see a defense as physical or fast as South Panola. Scoring points will be difficult and the defense will need to limit what the offense needs to do.
X-FACTOR: Man for man, South Panola is better. The offensive-line advantage goes to South Panola. Quarterback, at worst, is a wash. Skill players are all in favor of the Tigers, as are the linebackers and the secondary. South Panola, long a force in Mississippi, has never competed for a national title - finishing only as high as No. 8 in the polls the last five years. This year, the team's top-end talent (which includes the No. 1 player in the state) is equaled by its depth.
PREDICTION: Meridian was in a similar spot two years ago, facing a very good South Panola team that seemingly was destined to continue its winning streak and state title run. But with a perfect game plan and execution, the Wildcats came together and took home the state title. Something similar would need to happen in this game. And while we think the Meridian defense can slow South Panola, the offense figures to be hard pressed to get things going. - South Panola 22, Meridian 10
DON BOSCO WINS IF: Paul Canevari keeps running the ball. Canevari (like Qyen Griffin at South Panola) was on the defensive side of the ball as a junior but has seamlessly made the transition to featured running back. Canevari is over 1,000 yards rushing on the season and is the workhorse for the team. The offense is balanced with Pittsburgh commit Gary Nova throwing the ball, but this team often finds the end zone on the legs of Canevari.
BERGEN WINS IF: It is up to the task defensively. It is essentially the Tanner McEvoy show on offense, which the Ironmen will be able to slow, so the defense will need to keep this game close for Bergen. With Nick Latesta, Zach Sparber, Shutang Mungwa and a handful of other playermakers on defense, the potential is there. Bergen always plays Don Bosco tough and this game should be no exception.
X-FACTOR: Coaching. Former Don Bosco assistant coach and offensive coordinator Nunzio Campanile knows the ins and outs of the Bosco scheme and should have his team ready to play. Conversely, Greg Toal knows the tendencies of his former assistant and will be able to scheme against that. The chess match on the sidelines will be interesting to watch as the two coaches also have a dissimilar demeanor with the fiery Campenile going against a calculating Toal.
PREDICTION: Bergen was the only team on the schedule that was able to stay within 20 points of Don Bosco in the teams' regular-season game. While Bosco is a well-oiled machine and consistently solid, Bergen figures to be greatly improved after full season under Campenile. Bosco is still the team to beat and will remain the best in the Garden State, but maybe by not as much. - Don Bosco 27, Bergen Catholic 13
PEACH COUNTY WINS IF: It can contain Alex Chisum and B.J. Trimble. The Trojans escaped with a win over Grady in the last round, when it had a hard time slowing the explosive offense of Grady (which has one of the best players in the state, Damian Swann). If it cannot get pressure on the passer and Chisum and Trimble get open, it could be a long evening at the Georgia Dome. Peach County is a team without a lot of superstar players, but one that comes together to make a tremendous unit on defense. It will need to be complete to advance to the state final.
SANDY CREEK WINS IF: It respects its opponent. Sandy Creek is the defending Class AAAA state champion and it is playing down in class this year. It also has not had a very demanding schedule getting to this point. If the team expects to just show up and win, it could be in for a rude awakening. Off the bus, this team looks like it should win, but that does not mean anything when it gets to this point in the season - especially in a state such as Georgia.
X-FACTOR: Playoff path. Sandy Creek hardly has been tested in the playoffs, outscoring its opponents by a combined 133-3. Peach County shut out its first two opponents by a combined 82-0 before tangling with Grady last week in a 42-35 thriller. That Grady game can go one of two ways for Peach County: a) it can harden the team and prepare it for this week and a potential state final game with Carrollton or b) it could wipe out the team emotionally, making it harder to get excited for this contest. The answer will be found early as it is certain Sandy Creek will come out flying.
PREDICTION: Georgia has been a state that has tremendous balance in its top two classes, leaving the teams that stand out in the Class AAA and AA divisions. Three of the final four in Class AAA could compete and win in any class in the state and seeing the defending champs from AAAA and AAA on the field this week will be a testament to that. The Trojans are battle tested, and that plays dividends come the last few weeks of the season. - Peach County 30, Sandy Creek 20

Movie review: 'The Monuments Men' mixes action with art lesson
George Clooney leads a solid company of troupers into a little-known World War II story of a battle for beauty and combat for culture, emerging victorious with "The Monuments Men" when the smoke finally clears.
Hot on the heels of co-producing "August: Osage County" with partner Grant Heslov in sweltering north central Oklahoma, Clooney/Heslov co-wrote and co-produced this fact-based action drama and Clooney also took on double duty as director and star "Monuments," playing Frank Stokes, an art historian working in art restoration at Harvard's Fogg Museum, who becomes a prime mover and a leader of the Monuments, Fine Arts and Archives (MFAA) project, actually sanctioned by President Franklin D. Roosevelt and supported by Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhour in the waning days of the war.
The story focuses on a unit made up of museum directors, artists, architects and curators – well-past draft age and completely lacking in combat skills – who don battle fatigues and take up rifles to make their way to the front lines of Europe to rescue the world's greatest artistic masterpieces from Nazi thieves and return them to their rightful owners.
Hitler's plundering of the great artworks of the Western world, and Allied efforts to retrieve them, make up a little-known chapter in the World War II struggle, addressed onscreen once before in John Frankenheimer's 1964 Burt Lancaster vehicle, "The Train." But Clooney's account is far more detailed, with acts of heroism based on truth, and colorful characters based on real people.
And Clooney has a killer ensemble cast to flesh them out, including Matt Damon as James Granger, a character inspired by James Rorimer who later became director of New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art. Granger's relationship with Claire Simone (Cate Blanchett) was inspired by Rorimer's collaboration with Rose Valland, an employee of the Jeu de Paume gallery in Paris who spied on the Nazis during their occupation and kept notes on their routings of stolen artwork. Blanchett is especially outstanding as a courageous and cunning woman working completely on her own, at great risk to her life.
Bill Murray brings moments of surprising emotional tenderness – especially in a Christmas eve scene when he hears his wife sing to him in a recording sent from home – and expected doses of wry humor in his lightheartedly contentious relationship with Bob Balaban's character, a prim art collector who's self-conscious about his small physical stature.
Murray's character is based in part on architect Robert Posey, who actually discovered the salt mine at Altaussee, where the Nazis had stashed the Ghent Altarpiece, the Bruges Madonna, Vameer's "The Astronomer," and thousands of other works of art. Balaban's character in turn is based on art connoisseur Lincoln Kirstein, future founder of the New York City Ballet.
And then there is ever dependable John Goodman as an overweight sculptor based on artist Walter Hancock, re-teamed with Jean Dujardin, his co-star in "The Artist," as a French Jew who becomes his close friend before they fall into a deadly ambush.
As the war nears its end and Hitler orders all the captured artworks destroyed in the event of his death, the stakes are raised and the suspense builds to a climax that few works of fiction can match.
Based on the thoroughly-researched book by Robert M. Edsel with Bret Witter, the story repeatedly poses the question, are great works of art worth dying for? Is the evidence of an entire culture worth keeping alive? Considering what Hitler attempted to do to the Jews, the answer seems to be a resounding yes. And Clooney and company state that case inarguably, creating a treasure of a thriller to boot
- Gene Triplett
'The Monuments Men'
3 stars
Starring: George Clooney, Matt Damon, Bill Murray, Cate Blanchett, John Goodman, Jean Dujardin, Bob Balaban.

Re: USS Grandeur - One... More... Time!
I would think that torpedoes have two "modes." One is a fully guided mode, which is used when the tactical situation is not complicated, and the tactical officer can devote more attention to a single weapon, and a partially guided mode, where the torpedo can manouver on it's own, but isn't as accurate as the fully guided mode. I don't think there can be any question about torpedoes being guided though. When you're talking the speeds and manouverabilities of starships we've seen in star trek, in order to hit a target at all a torpedo would have to be guided.

KnoxMoms share advice to new parents
Readers of KnoxMoms' Facebook page love to offer advice, including to new moms like Kate Middleton. Here are suggestions they extended this week to moms of newborns:
Tisha Wright: Get some rest now so you can enjoy the ride later!
Erin Murphy Caylor: I pre-cooked a bunch of meals that could be frozen so I wouldn't have to cook healthy nutritious meals after baby. It gave us a lot more time for snuggling with our new bundle!
Emily Ohmes: Don't sleep when the baby is sleeping during the day. It will be a very disappointing 20 minutes, and you'll be up again, not having accomplished anything. I would tell myself to spend the 20 minutes of their nap cleaning and then call a friend to watch the baby while you go sleep for an hour. You'll actually get to rest, and someone else will get the joy of cuddling with an infant.
Jessie Peterson Fri: Don't register for too much for the shower. Just the basic necessities. Newborns don't "need" much. Diapers, wipes, cradle, car seat and onesies. Diaper genie, changing table, wet wipe warmer, breast pump are all things that you can determine as a need after you have your precious.
Charity Mink Place: Sleep when and as much as you can! Housework will wait until you have more energy. Never turn down offers of help with meals, chores and errands.
Shakira Mae: I cried for the first two weeks. And maybe daddy will, too . Tears of joy and fear. But mostly joy. It's an experience that will be cherished forever. My daughter gave me strength I never thought I have. Best of luck to the new parents!
Muna Escobar: It was wonderful and still is. Five children later, I would say to cherish the moments, treat them like precious treasures from Heaven and listen to what they have to say no matter what it is.
Misty Kelley Holloway: It was AMAZING! I was overwhelmed with joy and cried and cried and cried! Advice: Sleep when the baby does (for real!) and trust your instincts!
Denette Jackson: Take care of yourself. Spend lots of time with your new babe. Question circumcision: www.drmomma.org

Amanda Rosario
Update on Amanda RosarioAmanda is 28 years old. She is married to Alba Jhasmany and the couple have a 10-year-old daughter together. Their daughter is in elementary school. Amanda lives in the community of La Maica, south of Cochabamba. She lives in her parents' home because her house is still being built. Her parents gave her a plot of land as an inheritance and that is where she is building her home. Right now the three of them live in just one room where they are all very uncomfortable. Amanda's main business activity is selling food such as 'chicharrón de cerdo' (seasoned pork ribs cooked in fat and beer) which is a traditional regional dish, as well as duck, rabbit, etc. She carries out her work every weekend, from Friday to Monday. Her husband works every day as a taxi driver. In this way, the two of them work toward finishing the building of their house.
Amanda's previous loan helped her a lot because she was able to use it to buy 10 pigs at a very low price when that opportunity presented itself. This enabled her to increase her income. She feels very happy because, with the profits, she managed to make quite a bit of progress in building her house. This new loan will also be used to buy at least 20 pigs. This will allow her to have enough in stock so that she can continue making her 'chicharrón de cerdo' as this is the business activity that makes her the most profits. Cooking is what Amanda does best and so her future goals and dreams include owning a large restaurant where she can prepare her delicious dishes.
El anterior préstamo le ayudo mucho ya que con lo cual ha logrado comprar 10 cerdos a un precio muy bajo porque se le presento esa oportunidad, con lo cual ha logrado incrementar sus ingresos, y la señora Amanda se siente tan feliz que con esa utilidad a logrado avanzar bastante en la construcción de su casa.
El nuevo préstamo también es para la compra de por lo menos 20 cerdos y de esa manera tendrá acumulado para que pueda seguir elaborando chicharrón de cerdo, ya que es con esta actividad con lo cual genera mas utilidad.
Ella lo mejor que hace es cocinar así que entre sus sueños y metas esta, que en futuro tener un restaurant grande donde ella pueda preparar sus exquisitos platos.
Previous Loan DetailsAmanda is 27 years old and she is married with Mr. Alba Jhasmany and they have a 9-year old daughter together. She is in primary school. Amanda lives in the community of La Maica Sud. She lives in her parents' house because her own house is still under construction. Her parents inherited her land...

Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.

Chronic disease management partnerships
Preventive Medicine Institute, Dallas, TX
CVS Health has provided a $10,000 grant to the Preventive Medicine Institute (PMI) – a non-profit wellness screening program designed to identify the risks of diabetes, hypertension and heart disease in African American and Hispanic communities throughout the Dallas area. Specifically, the team conducts regular screening events through churches and community centers to monitor blood pressure, Body Mass Index, blood glucose and cholesterol levels. Through this grant, PMI is able to provide these screenings for 350 patients and expand their services to include screening for tobacco users and support those patients who want to quit by referring them to state and local smoking cessation services.

The asthma clinic provides asthma diagnosis, patient and family education, treatment and follow-up at no cost to children and families. Thanks to the grant, the clinic will also be able to provide resources to parents related to smoking cessation since second-hand smoke is one of the greatest factors contributing to asthma in children who live with a smoker. The Breathmobile has seen great success through their clinic and has seen a 40 percent drop in missed school days due to asthma-related problems, a greater than 70 percent drop in emergency room visits, and a greater than 73 percent drop in asthma-related hospital stays among Breathmobile patients.

The grant is being used to:
Educate families on the harmful effects of smoking and second-hand smoke exposure in pregnant women and infants.

The organization is committed to helping people quit smoking and remain tobacco free through their smoking cessation programs for medically underserved populations across Chicago with a focus on African Americans, pregnant women, women of childbearing age, people with asthma and families with low-economic status. Through a $10,000 grant from CVS Health, the Respiratory Health Association is providing free smoking cessation training to 20 health care professionals from federally qualified health centers, community-based health centers and area hospitals through their Courage to Quit Program.

Funding from CVS Health will allow 90 teens and young adults to participate in Oakwood's TTTC smoking cessation program, "Stop Today and Remove Tobacco" (S.T.A.R.T.). Through the program, youth ages 14-19 receive the American Lung Association's "Not on Tobacco" (N-O-T) curriculum in partnership with the Taylor school system. This ten-week course helps students identify their reasons for smoking, find healthier alternatives and identify a strong support system to help them remain tobacco-free. In addition, young adults ages 19-25 receive the American Lung Association's "Freedom from Smoking" curriculum, a seven-week program that offers in-person and online classes. Both programs are specifically designed for teens and young adults to maximize their success.
Indiana Perinatal Network, Indianapolis, IN
CVS Health is partnering with the Indiana Perinatal Network – whose mission is to improve the health of all mothers and babies in Indiana – on their innovative "Baby & Me Tobacco Free" program. Through a $15,000 grant, CVS Health is supporting their efforts to reduce the number of pregnant women in Indiana who smoke. The program is offered at hospitals and clinics, WIC offices, health departments and community organizations throughout the state. Funds from CVS Health will provide incentives to 45 expectant mothers to encourage them to continue to live tobacco free.

Patients are assessed at 13 weeks, six months and one year to determine their status and ability to remain tobacco free.

2013 NFL Draft Prospect Stock Report
NFL Draft Stock Report
The NFL draft is all about trends. It seems that at the start of the season all of the draftniks of the world have their lists. I know I have mine. Lots of lists on lots of players and notes. Lots of notes. We put together our positional rankings based on these lists, and what we typically see is groups of players by position get sort of lumped together either a little higher or a little lower than they should.
But as the season progresses, we come to understand that the NFL draft and the relative value of these players is fluid. But typically there are trends based on position. That's what I am seeing this season. Some positions that started off very high with lots of excellent prospects now seem less than loaded and falling. While others do just the opposite and players emerge as the season progresses and that position becomes one of strength.
So, with all that it's time for my first NFL Draft stock report for the 2013 NFL draft. Keeping in mind that when I do this again at the end of the season, don't be shocked if these positions change again.
A few notes on some of the positions other than the 4 I am highlighting here. The position of running back is the most grossly undervalued of any in the draft. We see it every year when backs taken later in the draft that excel. This year I actually have first round grades on 2 running backs, but I won't be shocked if neither of them are drafted in the first. Just the opposite can be said for offensive tackle. I currently have 3 tackles with first round grades, but I won't be surprised if twice that are taken in the first round.
But without further ado, here are my 4 highlighted positions that are either bears or bulls in this NFL draft stock market.
Follow me on Twitter @nfldraftboard for everything draft related.
Stock UP-Hybrid Rush DEs/LBs
It's hard to say that the stock is up on a group that was already very talented, but as the season has gone on, it's done just that. This group is lead by Jarvis Jones of Georgia and a pair from LSU Barkevious Mingo and Sam Montgomery, but that's just getting started. FSU rushers Tank Carradine and Bjoern Werner, Auburn's Corey Lemonier, The Texas A&M tandem of Sean Porter and Damontre Moore, and Texas Longhorn Alex Okafor are all in the mix to be first round picks as pass rush specialists in either a 4-3 or 3-4 defense.
This group is varied in terms of sizes and skills, and so when it comes time for an NFL franchise to select one, they will be able to pick the guy that fits them the best. Overall this is a really talented group, and even outside of this pack of first round picks, there are a half dozen more that are worth a 2nd round pick as well.
Stock DOWN-Quarterbacks
At the start of the season, there was so much hype surrounding this group of quarterbacks, with players like Virginia Tech QB Logan Thomas and Oklahoma signal caller Landry Jones to be among upwards of 8 quarterbacks to be taken in the first round. But unfortunately Thomas has regressed, Jones has struggled under pressure, and some of the other top quarterbacks at the start of the year like Georgia's Aaron Murray and Tennessee Vols QB Tyler Bray have fallen short of expectations. At this point the only quarterbacks I am confident putting a first round grade on are USC's Matt Barkley, Arkansas' Tyler Wilson, and West Virgina QB Geno Smith. In order I put them Wilson, Smith and Barkley, but overall this group of quarterbacks are down in terms of excitement.
One note though. This won't stop teams from drafting them early. Everyone understands how vital it is to have a top quarterback, and so with the financial anchor removed with rookie contracts, teams will continue to draft risky quarterbacks early, and hope they work out.
Stock UP-Safetys
Part of the surge in popularity in the safety position in the NFL is spurred by the increase in the passing game. Safetys can't just be an extension of the front 7, stuffing the run and hiding in the box. On most teams the role of a free safety and strong safety are so similar they are almost interchangeable. Because of this, teams want these uber athletic, do-it-all safetys.
And with that we have this group. At the start of the year I only had one safety, LSU's Eric Reid as a first round prospect, but since then USC's TJ McDonald, University of Texas safety Kenny Vaccaro, and Oklahoma's Tony Jefferson are all in the first round mix, with 4 or 5 guys behind them that could be taken in the 2nd round. The safety position in the NFL has become high profile but it short on talent so seeing a few overdrafted won't shock me at all.
Stock DOWN-Cornerbacks
Big stock down here. Going into the year the discussion was how many picks would go in the top 10. Now, I'm not entirely sure if any corner will be taken in the first ten picks. North Carolina State's David Amerson entered the year as the top player, but he's struggled, while LSU cornerback Tyrann Mathieu has essentially ruined his NFL chances through a series of very bad choices. Even the rest of the players who might be considered a first round pick have flaws in their games that will push them down. This is a group that is big and strong, but lacking speed and teams love those low 40 times.
Teams will still reach for these players, mainly because cornerback is such a need position in a pass first league. For me, I only have 3 corners with first round grades, and that's being generous. If there's a corner in this draft who can move up into the top of the round it's probably Alabama's DeMarcus Milliner. But even he doesn't compare to the top corners from recent drafts.

This was a large 3 bedroom caravan which had the potential of accommodating 8 people. The caravan felt spacious and had ample room in the lounge area. The dining area was a little small but did manage to allow 6 to sit around. There is only one toilet with shower enclosure which did need a little getting used to but overall worked.

Had a lovely time, caravan was excellent. Only let down was that for a busy half term there was no entertainment in the club and the shop was poorly stocked. Great location for the Lakes and Yorkshire. Staff were very helpful. Would recommend the park to others.
Wild rose is a lovely park where we have stayed many times. The facilities for the children especially the games room are becoming tired and could do with updating. The new restaurant / bar is a great addition. We would not hesitate to come back as it a great base to explore the surrounding area.

The CPA's Responsibility for Client Information
Cashell, James D., Fuerman, Ross D., The CPA Journal
Because of potential professional and monetary hazards, CPAs must be astute in their handling of client information. Although the general rule is to never reveal information without a client's consent, there are exceptions.
To mitigate problems with client information, CPAs need to understand the professional and legal issues involved and should know when it is prudent to consult legal counsel. Mere compliance with the AICPA professional standards is insufficient to ensure legal compliance. While courts have, for the most part, relied upon generally accepted auditing standards to establish a CPA's standard of care, they do not recognize such standards as law. At times, the courts have held CPAs to a higher standard. At other times they have deemed that failure to comply with professional standards is only evidence of negligence and does not, by itself, constitute negligence.
The Responsibility to Maintain Information Confidentiality
The CPA's professional responsibility for client information is primarily defined in Sec. ET-301 of the AICPA Professional Standards. The rule states that a member in public practice shall not disclose any confidential client information without the specific consent of the client. It also extends the obligation to maintain the confidentiality of information to other CPAs not directly involved with the client who obtain such information through practice reviews or sanctioned disciplinary hearings. The rule does provide certain exceptions that facilitate compliance with other professional and legal obligations.
The duty to maintain information confidentiality is a legal as well as a professional obligation. With some exceptions, the accountant-client relationship is one of confidentiality, and the failure to maintain a client's confidence could lead to a malpractice action against the accountant. Such was the case in Green v. Savin where the Court permitted punitive damages against an accountant for the unauthorized disclosure of information to the client's wife about his medical practice. The information was later used by the wife in a divorce proceeding.
Even where the intent has been to warn others of pending financial harm, the courts have held that CPAs must not divulge client information. In Wagenheim v. Alexander Grant & Co. (AG), for example, the court ruled AG improperly divulged confidential information about their client, Consolidata Data Services, Inc. (CDS), to other clients. CDS, an audit client of AG, performed payroll services for several of AG's other clients. Upon discovery that CDS was having financial difficulty, AG warned their other clients to stop doing business with CDS. AG argued the other clients would suffer financial damage without the warning. In ruling against AG, the court stated there was no proof that CDS was "irretrievably" insolvent and, therefore, AG had no legal right to alert third parties of CD's financial problems. In its discussion, however, the court indicated that AG's actions might have been justified if CDS either intended fraud by not disclosing its insolvency or did not intend to fulfill its contractual obligations with AG's clients.
General knowledge and expertise obtained through a client engagement is not considered confidential information. This is noted in ET-391.030, which states that knowledge and expertise gained from an engagement that results in a special competence in a particular field can be shared with others without violating the client's confidentiality provided the specific details of the engagement are not disclosed. This ruling has legal support as well, as noted in Agra Enterprises v. Brunozzi. In this case, Agra claimed the accountant violated information confidentiality by using the knowledge and expertise he developed, while employed by Agra, to set up a competing business. The court ruled that the accountant, in using only his general expertise gained through his employment and publicly available information to start his business, did not violate confidential information laws because such information was not confidential. …

St. Paul, MN (SportsNetwork.com) - Marco Scandella and Jason Pominville potted goals 1:46 apart during Minnesota's three-goal second period, as the Wild snapped their season-long six-game slide with a 4-1 win over the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday at Xcel Energy Center.
Jason Zucker capped the second-period surge with his first goal of the season, while Niklas Backstrom backstopped the victory with 19 saves.
"Backstrom is a huge story in the game for me," said Minnesota head coach Mike Yeo. "He was huge, even though we didn't give up a ton. We played a better game in front of him."
Matt Ellis spoiled Backstrom's shutout bid with a late marker and Ryan Miller allowed three goals on 31 shots for the Sabres, who have lost four of their last six games.
