About the Human-side of Restoration Webinar Series
The U.S. Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station, National Forest Foundation, and the Colorado Forest Restoration Institute at Colorado State University launched the Human-Side of Restoration Webinar Series. This series of six webinars provided a forum for managers and social scientists to share their insights and experiences with the "human side" of restoration, including the interface among ecological restoration, human communities, and individual values, public opinions, and social structures.
About the Series
Ecological restoration is a value-laden endeavor; Nature has no intrinsic concept of "healthy" ecosystems. Managers, researchers, and the public must define the goals of restoration projects, prioritize values at risk, and determine relevant temporal and spatial scales. Defining desired (or undesirable) future conditions for ecosystems raises ethical and social questions—desired by who and for who? –making it necessary that natural resource managers appreciate the human side of restoration. Read our concept paper for more information on the background and objectives of this series.
For additional information, or to share comments and ideas, please contact Jan Engert, RMRS Assistant Station Director.

The List of High Penalty Banks Expands to Twelve
We've blogged often about the IRS Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program (check the index for a full list). One of recurring topics has been that since the IRS reserves the right to make changes to the details of the program, it is likely in taxpayers' best interest to look into the OVDP sooner rather than later. Already once since the program began, for example, the IRS has increased the penalty rate paid by those participating in the program.
One change the IRS has made to the OVDP since its inception is to identify situations in which taxpayers pay a higher penalty than the norm for the OVDP. The current OVDP penalty rate is 27.5%. By comparison, the penalties for failure to disclose foreign accounts or assets outside of the program can be as high as 50% and can involve criminal charges and possible jail time. In some cases, in the so-called streamlined OVDP, which is available only for taxpayers whose failure to report was unwillful, the penalties are lower, but the standard for the program is currently 27.5%. In the case of certain banks, however, the penalty even in the OVDP is 50%. Specifically, if a taxpayer in the OVDP has undisclosed accounts at any of the banks on the IRS's list, they incur the increased penalty on all their accounts, not just those at the specific institution. Participation in the program still prevents criminal prosecution.
Ten of these banks have been on this list since August 2014. The IRS recently added the final two, bringing the total to the following twelve banks:
- Credit Suisse AG, Credit Suisse Fides and Clariden Leu Ltd.
- Wegelin & Co.
- Liechtensteinische Landesbank AG
- Zurcher Kantonalbank
- swisspartners Investment Network AG, swisspartners Wealth Management AG, swisspartners Insurance Company SPC Ltd. and swisspartners Versicherung AG
- CIBC FirstCaribbean International Bank Limited, its predecessors, subsidiaries and affiliates
- Stanford International Bank, Ltd., Stanford Group Company and Stanford Trust Company, Ltd.
- The Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited in India (HSBC India)
- The Bank of N.T. Butterfield & Son Limited (also known as Butterfield Bank and Bank of Butterfield), its predecessors, subsidiaries and affiliates
- Sovereign Management & Legal, Ltd., its predecessors, subsidiaries and affiliates (effective 12/19/14)
- Bank Leumi le-Israel B.M., The Bank Leumi le-Israel Trust Company Ltd, Bank Leumi (Luxembourg) S.A., Leumi Private Bank S.A. and Bank Leumi USA (effective 12/22/14)
This list has come to be largely thanks to FATCA (that's the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act), a 2010 law that empowers the IRS to enter into information sharing agreements with foreign governments or foreign financial institutions directly. The aim is to gather information on undisclosed accounts and assets held by US depositors.
The silver lining is that the above list does not apply to taxpayers who participate in the streamlined OVDP, which includes a much lower penalty of 5%.

Medical Marijuana in Illinois is Still Hazy
410 ILCS 130, otherwise known as the Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Pilot Program Act, went into effect at the beginning of this year. Scheduled to expire on January 1, 2o18, the program is meant to allow the medical use of marijuana in the state of Illinois. Illinois is one of 20 states to have a medical cannabis program. Some of those states have decriminalized recreational use as well. Illinois's program comes with specific and steep regulations for growers and dispensers and while these may have made Illinois medical marijuana infrastructure slow to develop, the largest complication comes from the fact that whatever Illinois law may say, marijuana is still a Schedule I controlled substance under the federal Controlled Substances Act. This situation leads to confusion for those trying to grow and sell cannabis, the patients intending to use it, and also for the tax professionals and accountants looking to assist these businesses.
The Department of Justice has said, essentially, that it's not going to go after marijuana in states that have legalized it (medical or recreational), so long as those laws conform to a few requirements like ensuring marijuana is not used by minors. Illinois's program meets those requirements. Congress has gone one step further recently and, in the recesses of a giant spending bill, included a prohibition on the DOJ using such funds to pursue marijuana in states where it's legal. The strangeness of Congress instructing a federal agency not to enforce a law that Congress itself passed aside, this should provide relative confidence to the Illinois patient looking to make use of medical marijuana.
For businesses and the professionals interested in helping them, unfortunately, things are less clear. Again, the DOJ shouldn't be breaking down the doors of an Illinois dispensary, but because growing and selling marijuana is still illegal by federal law, other issues arise. Banks, for example, are reluctant to handle accounts for marijuana businesses. These companies also run into problems when it comes time to file their taxes. The Internal Revenue Code prohibits a company from declaring as deductions any expenses incurred in the performance of illegal activity. In other words, if a business buys a piece of equipment, they can write that off as an expense and deduct it from their taxes. But if the business is a marijuana dispensary, their work is technically illegal by federal law and thus they cannot deduct the expense. The end result is that taxes on cannabis businesses can be much higher than on other companies and that could make operation fiscally unfeasible. There's some room for creativity here, for example selling more than just marijuana and attributing expenses to that part of the business, but the situation remains far from ideal.
For tax professionals, the chief problem is what happens when you're assisting your clients to break the law. The Illinois State Bar Association recently released their opinion on how attorneys can navigate the law. They were unfortunately unable to give much concrete advice. The Department of Justice shouldn't be the immediate concern since they have been instructed first by the executive and now the legislative branches of the federal government to, as it were, leave this one alone, but professional regulatory agencies haven't been told the same. The ISBA opinion explained that there's no problem in an attorney giving advice to a client on the legality or illegality of possible actions. Explaining the law is safe. When a lawyer gets involved transactionally, preparing an operating agreement for example, then the attorney is assisting their client to break federal law and the ARDC (The Attorney Regulation and Disciplinary Commission of the Illinois Supreme Court) could arguably go after that attorney's ability to practice law in Illinois.
The issue comes down to marijuana being classified a Schedule I controlled substance. If federal law was changed to leave the matter of the states, the situation would be clearer. As it stands, things are hazy and look likely to remain that way for the foreseeable future.

The Prosecutor Who Wiped Out Arthur Andersen May Be Coming For Your Bank
At first glance the name Leslie Caldwell might not mean much. Ms. Caldwell is President Obama's appointment to head the Criminal Division of the Department of Justice. She was confirmed last month. This new position follows a stretch of relatively quiet private practice. But more than a decade ago, Ms. Caldwell made waves as the chief prosecutor in the case that destroyed accounting juggernaut Arthur Andersen. Ms. Caldwell's appointment certainly doesn't seem an accident in light of the Justice Department's increase focus on foreign banks like Credit Suisse and BNP Paribas.
In the wake of the Enron collapse, Ms. Caldwell headed up an investigation of Arthur Andersen LLP, one of the largest accounting firms in the world at the time, for their possible culpability in the Enron scandal. An investigation characterized by aggressive conduct on the part of Ms. Caldwell, the resulting conviction was later overturned nine to zero by the Supreme Court. The damage had already been done, however, and Arthur Andersen had lost its client base.
Not long after Ms. Caldwell's current appointment, Credit Suisse plead guilty to the tune of $2.6 billion in fines and the French bank BNP Paribas will face a fine of between $8 and $9 billion in addition to a temporary on the bank's ability to conduct transactions in U.S. dollars. With FATCA expanding the U.S.'s ability to collect information on foreign accounts and assets and providing increased leverage on foreign financial institutions, it's reasonable to expect more investigations, more fines, and more agreements so hare information on U.S. depositors.
The silver lining for taxpayers with as yet undisclosed offshore assets is to be found in the IRS's Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program (OVDP). By coming clean to the IRS about their offshore accounts and foreign assets, taxpayers receive reduced penalties and avoid criminal prosecution. If the IRS has already begun investigating the taxpayer, however, they are no longer eligible for the OVDP. Recently instituted rules also remove the penalty reduction if the IRS or the Department of Justice has begun an investigation into the bank holding the taxpayer's accounts.

Obama 2015 Budget Proposes Tax Revenue Increase
The White House has released its proposed budget for the 2015 fiscal year. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO), reports that the proposed budget would increase tax revenue by $1.4 trillion over the next decade. It would also cut deficits by $1.o5 trillion and fund new proposed spending, the CBO has said.
The White House's own numbers are more optimistic than the non-partisan CBO's, projection cumulative deficits of $4.9 trillion compared to the CBO's projection of $6.6 trillion over the next ten years. The two estimates differ primarily because the CBO forecasts slower economic growth, which would result in lower tax revenue.
The proposed budget increases revenue by limiting tax breaks for the wealthy and for businesses, increasing taxes on tobacco products, creating a new millionaire tax, and restoring estate and gift taxes to the higher rates they had in 2009. The budget also proposes to increase spending by canceling the automatic spending cuts to military and domestic programs, which were part of the 'sequester,' and increasing funds to job training programs and expanding tax credits for low-income taxpayers.
The proposed budget is of course just that, a proposal. Congress has the final word of the purse strings. The chances of the Obama budget being passed as-is are nonexistent. The GOP has advanced a budget put together my Representative Paul Ryan that proposes deep spending cuts and no tax increases. In both cases, the budgets may be designed more to support stump speeches for November's election. Unless one party gains control of both houses of Congress in that election, we are likely to face another budget standoff like those of recent years.

IRS Weighs in on Virtual Currency
Online cryptocurrencies like bitcoin have been around a few years now and every few months they end up in the news, often when the value of one virtual currency spikes or drops.
Two days ago, the IRS issued Noticed 2014-21 which addresses how the IRS will treat virtual currency for tax purposes. The long and short of it is that the Department of Treasury and the IRS do not treat virtual currencies like bitcoin as currency. Instead for purposes of tax they are treated as property. This means virtual currency is not applicable for the various sorts of tax situations that could arise, for example, from the changing relative values of Euros and US Dollars. As property, however, the changing value of virtual currency counts as gains or losses. Virtual currency received as compensation for employment is considered wages. For both purposes, the fair market value in US dollars has to be calculated. The IRS further explained that payments made in virtual currency incur the same reporting requirements as payments made through other means. Failure to treat virtual currency transactions in accordance with the notice may leave taxpayers subject to penalties, the same failing to comply with any other tax laws.

Supreme Court Rules: Severence Pay Taxable
Yesterday, the Supreme Court ruled on the case of United States v. Quality Stores. Reversing the decision of the lower courts, the Supreme Court found that severance pay are taxable wages for FICA purposes. The justices ruled 8-0, with Justice Kagan recusing herself from the case.
The case arose during the bankruptcy proceedings of Quality Stores, Inc. and its affiliates. As part of the Chapter 11 proceedings, Quality Stores made severance payments to employees who were involuntarily terminated. Quality Stores withheld taxes as required under the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA). These taxes are collected to fund Medicare and Social Security. Later, Quality Stores sought a refund of those taxes, believing FICA did not actually apply to severance payments. The IRS did not allow or deny the refund, so Quality Stores brought action in the Bankruptcy Court, which ruled in Quality Stores's favor. The District Court and the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld that decision. The Supreme Court reversed it.
The decision is uncomplicated. FICA defines wages as "all remuneration for employment" and the Supreme Court holds that severance payments plainly fit that standard. They are paid in consideration for employment, thus they are subject to the tax. The opinion further points out that within the Act's lengthy list of exceptions, severance payments made because of retirement for disability are specifically exempted. There would be no need for such a provision unless severance payments were generally subject to tax.

IRS Releases FATCA Amendments
Last week, the IRS and the Department of the Treasury, released a set of amendments to the final regulations to implement the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA). The final regulations had been released the beginning of last year and the law is slated to go into effect beginning in July. These recent amendments address concerns raised since the release of the final regs.
Passed in 2010 as part of the HIRE Act, FATCA aims to combat tax evasion by allowing the IRS to create agreements to work with foreign governments or financial institutions to obtain information on US depositors. To date 22 countries have signed FATCA agreements with the US, with many others at various stages of completing agreements. There are two models for these agreements, one in which the IRS deals with foreign governments who in turn communicate with the financial institutions in their countries, and a second where the IRS talks directly to the foreign financial institutions. In either model the end goal is the same, gathering information on US depositors to identify tax evasion.
FATCA has received criticism and resistance since it was first passed. Some have blamed it for the spike in US citizens renouncing their citizenship since 2010. Some foreign financial institutions have also pushed back against the law, while others have decided no longer to accept US depositors.
Treasury officials have said they expect FATCA to be a model for future laws in other countries, for there eventually to be an established framework of information sharing among countries and financial institutions to combat tax evasion. Earlier this month, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development announced new standards for the automatic, FATCA-like exchange of financial information across borders.
Augmented in their efforts by FATCA, the IRS continues an aggressive stance toward US citizens who keep money offshore to evade paying tax or who fail to report those assets. The penalties for failing to declare foreign financial assets or evading taxes through offshore accounts are severe and can include time in prison. Since 2009, the IRS has continued its Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program, which allows taxpayers to "come clean" regarding previously undisclosed offshore bank accounts and other assets and to receive a reduction in penalties and to avoid criminal prosecution.

Who Says The IRS Lacks Humor?
We have been treated over the years to memorable quotes by Yogi Berra. Among some of the more well known are: "if you come to a fork in the road, then take it" and "déjà vu all over again." One of his lesser known quotes is "nobody goes to that restaurant anymore because it's too crowded." The IRS inadvertently treaded on that quote this week when it announced to the public: "We do not want anyone calling the IRS next week because too many people will be calling."
The rationale is a combination of budget cuts affecting staffing IRS phones and the Federal Holiday on Monday crunching calls into four days instead of five.
Notwithstanding, the rationale, one has to admit the IRS does have a sense of humor.
Swiss Banks Offer Up Their U.S. Depositors and Employees To Save Themselves
A critical deadline is coming up for Swiss banks on December 31st. Under agreements put in place last summer, the IRS has implemented a bank version of its offshore voluntary disclosure programs (OVDP /OVDI) that have been in place for individuals since 2009.
The programs offered to these Swiss banks may have serious ramifications for their depositors. These programs provide for the banks to obtain non-prosecution agreements from the IRS. Banks may also seek non-target letters. What's perhaps most important is what these agreements do not include. They provide protection only for the banks, not for any of their depositors.
Part of the requirements for a Swiss bank to obtain one or more of these agreements is a for the Swiss bank to offer up ("hand over") information regarding its U.S. depositors and its employees and agents. In some if not many cases, this information will provide the IRS with a road map of how Swiss bank employees and agents may have advised U.S. depositors to commit criminal violations of the Internal Revenue Code. It also provides a quite literal road map to the front door of U.S. depositors who may have not disclosed their foreign offshore accounts and or failed to report income from those accounts.
In our practice we are aware of stepped up pressure by certain Swiss banks to encourage their U.S. account holders to enter into the IRS Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program. Examining the details of the IRS Non-Prosecution Agreements may provide the motivation for this. One of the requirements s of the program is for the Swiss bank to pay penalties for its potentially criminal actions. One way for the Swiss banks to reduce the amount of the penalties is to show substantial efforts to encourage U.S. depositors to enter into the IRS disclosure (OVDP) initiative. Moreover the first deadline for submitting an application for a Non-Prosecution Agreement is December 31, 2013 thereby providing a possible reason for Swiss banks to ramp up pressure on its U.S. Offshore Account Holders.

Foreign Bank Account Holders Beware
We have written frequently written about the FATCA statute. Every month, more and more FATCA agreements are being negotiated between the U.S. and foreign governments. These agreements provide for foreign banks to disclose U.S. depositor information to the U.S. government. To this point, we are aware of several major foreign banks that have sent letters to their depositors which state that either via FATCA or separate unrelated agreements, the bank is going to release their information to the IRS. The letters advise that if the depositors have not properly reported their foreign income and or accounts to the IRS, they ought to seek tax advice.
Recently it's not just large bank that are issuing these types of disclosure letters. Rather, smaller banks are beginning to issue letters to the same effect.. In other words, the IRS is digging deeper.

Muscles of the Humerus that Act on the Forearm
Muscles of the humerus that act on the forearm are primarily involved in flexion and extension of the forearm.
Learning Objective
Determine the movements of the muscles of the humerus that act on the forearm
Key Points
- Flexion is produced by the action of the biceps brachii, brachialis, and brachioradialis muscles.
- Extension is produced by the triceps brachii and the anconeus muscles.
- When the forearm is extended and supinated, the axis of the arm and forearm are not in the same line; the arm forms an obtuse angle with the forearm (the carrying angle).
- The flexor digitorum superficialis and flexor digitorum profundus act to flex the fingers.
- The flexor pollicis longus flexes the thumb.
- The brachioradialis flexes the forearm at the elbow junction.
- The extrinsic extensor muscles are located in the back of the forearm, outside the hand, and act to extend and open joints in the hand.
- The supinator is a broad muscle that acts together with the biceps to supinate the forearm, except when the elbow joint is extended.
The act of extending or the state of being extended; a stretching out; enlargement in breadth or continuation of length; increase; augmentation; expansion.
The act of bending a joint, especially a bone joint. The counteraction of extension.
Full Text
The humerus is a long bone in the arm or forelimb that runs from the shoulder to the elbow. Anatomically, it connects the scapula and the lower arm (consisting of the radius and ulna), and consists of three sections. The upper extremity consists of a rounded head, a narrow neck, and two short processes. Its body is cylindrical in its upper portion, and more prismatic below. The lower extremity consists of two epicondyles, two processes, and three fossae.
The muscles of the humerus that act on the forearm are primarily involved in flexion. This is the movement of the forearm back towards the shoulder joint or the decreasing of the angle between the bones of the limb at the elbow joint and extension . Flexion is produced by the action of the following muscles:
Superficial muscles of the posterior forearm
Superficial muscles.
Muscles of the forearm
Front of the left forearm. Superficial muscles.
- Biceps brachii is a two-headed muscle that lies on the upper arm between the shoulder and the elbow. Both heads arise on the scapula and join to form a single muscle belly which is attached to the upper forearm. While the biceps crosses both the shoulder and elbow joints, its main function is at the latter where it flexes the elbow and supinates the forearm. Both heads join on the middle of the humerus, usually near the insertion of the deltoid, to form a common muscle belly.
- Brachialis is a muscle in the upper arm that flexes the elbow joint. It lies deeper than the biceps brachii, and is a synergist that assists the biceps brachii in flexing at the elbow. The brachialis originates from the lower half of the front of the humerus, near the insertion of the deltoid muscle, which it embraces by two angular processes.
- Brachioradialis is a muscle of the forearm that acts to flex the forearm at the elbow. It is also capable of both pronation and supination, depending on the position of the forearm. It is attached to the distal styloid process of the radius by way of the brachioradialis tendon, and to the lateral supracondylar ridge of the humerus.
- Medial epicondyle muscles of the humerus provide a tiny contribution.
When the forearm is extended and supinated, the axis of the arm and forearm are not in the same line; the arm forms an obtuse angle with the forearm (the carrying angle). During flexion, however, the forearm and the hand tend to approach the middle line of the body, and thus enable the hand to be easily carried to the face.
Extension is produced by the following muscles:
- Triceps brachii muscle is the large muscle on the back of the upper limb of many vertebrates. The medial head arises distally from the groove of the radial nerve; from the dorsal (back) surface of the humerus; from the medial intermuscular septum; and its distal part also arises from the lateral intermuscular septum.
- Anconeus muscle is a small muscle on the posterior aspect of the elbow joint. Anconeus muscle originates on the posterior surface of the lateral epicondyle of the humerus and is inserted on the ulna lateral to the olecranon from where it extends down on the dorsal side of the bone. It assists in extension of the elbow, where the triceps brachii is the principal agonist, and supports the elbow in full extension.
- The muscles arising from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus, such as the extensor digitorum communis, also contribute to extension.

Colorado governor renames peaks for Broncos
Published January 29, 2014 9:25 am
This is an archived article that was published on sltrib.com in 2014, and information in the article may be outdated. It is provided only for personal research purposes and may not be reprinted.
Denver • Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper is taking Super Bowl hoopla to new heights.
He announced Wednesday that he's temporarily re-naming Colorado's highest mountains for each member of the Denver Broncos. The state is home to more than 50 mountains over 14,000 feet, called "14-ers" by locals.
Hickenlooper renamed the tallest mountain, Mt. Elbert, for Peyton Manning, while Zane Beadles and other members of the offensive line are getting the Collegiate Peaks range. Capitol Peak, considered to be the most difficult to climb, was temporarily renamed for Champ Bailey. Longs Peak went to long kicker Matt Prater.
In his proclamation, the brewpub pioneer also takes a dig at Seattle, noting that it makes some "OK beer."

Combine Observations (Offense)
Here are a few thoughts I have regarding the offensive participants at the Combine this year:
Why didn't
Brock Osweiler
throw at the Combine? Is this some kind of ploy in order to convince people that Osweiler is a top prospect who doesn't want to jeopardize his draft position by having to deal with undesirable receiving options such as
Michael Floyd
Stephen Hill
? Osweiler's tape doesn't suggest anything near a first-round draft grade; his decision to sit out suggests that he was either unprepared or unwilling to let talent evaluators actually see what he had. What are you hiding, Brock? My guess is plodding footwork and an inconsistent release point, but both of those aspects of quarterbacking seem like things that can be disguised during the pre-draft process; remember once upon a time when
Tim Tebow
decided to throw the ball the right way for a few months? The one-on-one, QB-to-WR drills would likely have benefited Osweiler's stock; it's not like he would have had to go through progressions or make decisions with the football. Everything would be just like Arizona State, where all Osweiler had to do was use the rocket launcher attached to his torso to power the ball to predetermined targets.
Robert Griffin III
's case, the decision to sit out the throwing session is understandable because his stock is at an all-time high after dominating a series of drills that have little application to the quarterback position; entry to the Hall of Fame is not determined by a vertical jump or 40-yard dash. It's also sneaky that Griffin would call himself a competitor and then opt to, well, not compete; he is a shrewd businessman and marketer. Very impressive interviews from someone who looks increasingly likely to be selected with the second overall pick; Griffin's style of play reminds me of
Michael Vick
, and that's not necessarily a bad thing.
Running Back
Bernard Pierce
is one of the backs who boosted his stock in Indianapolis; didn't know he had 4.49 in him. His upright running style remains cause for concern, though.
Robert Turbin
runs with more authority than Pierce and makes defenses try harder to bring him down, but can we stop talking about his arms already? The last running back workout which caused everyone to get this giddy over a second or third-day pick was
Chris Henry
, although Turbin was far more productive as a collegiate athlete. Another power back who figures to draw interest in the same pick range as Pierce and Turbin is
Chris Polk
, although I'm curious to hear how his interviews went following some nasty rumors regarding his demeanor at the Senior Bowl.
I'm a little bit disappointed in how
Dan Herron
Chris Rainey
performed. Herron will most likely end up being undervalued as a hard-running, in-your-face short yardage back similar to
BenJarvus Green-Ellis
Marion Barber
after running a 4.66; Rainey's 40-yard dash was supposed to make us forget about his off-the-field behavior, but he ran a 4.45 at 5'8" and 180 pounds. He projects as a dynamic change-of-pace player in the NFL, but was expected to run a sizzling time in the 4.3 range.
Marc Tyler
, but your interview under the influence and 4.76 are probably going to leave you disappointed.
Wide Receiver
Everyone's talking about
Stephen Hill
, and rightfully so. 6'4" and 215 with a 4.36? He's like
Jon Baldwin
without the character concerns, and is headed towards being a first-round pick in April.
Mohamed Sanu
is one of the guys he passed; Sanu has size and a well-rounded game, but most likely prevented himself from being a first-round pick by running a 4.67. His ability to separate will be called into question, and Sanu also has a history of drops. There's no way Hill is getting ahead of
Michael Floyd
though, especially after Floyd ran a 4.47. Floyd's character must be thoroughly investigated, but on the field, he's got a game that's eerily similar to
Larry Fitzgerald
's and will most likely end up going in the top ten or twelve picks. Let's stop all that nonsense about him being a late first-rounder.
This was an ugly year for receivers overall.
Joe Adams
ran a 4.55 after being hyped as a 4.3 guy and second-round pick, but that's not going to happen now. His teammate
Greg Childs
was one of the few who avoided a stock hit after posting the same time as Adams; Childs' medical evaluations will also play a significant role in determing his final draft position. Other wideouts who ran slower than expected were
Juron Criner
(4.68) and
Kendall Wright
(4.61); what happened, Kendall? Just when your stock was at an all-time high. Wright still deserves to go in the first round, though; he's faster than that.
Dwight Jones
drew some negative reviews regarding his hands and coachability, and has one of the most difficult-to-project stocks in the class; he could be
Braylon Edwards
, but it looks like he'll be selected after
Tommy Streeter
Alshon Jeffery
came in at 216 pounds, and proceeded to do...nothing. He can lose the weight, but can he keep it off after the big payday? Great talent, but not someone I'd risk my job for. Someone will fall for it, though.
Tight End
There were three top tight end prospects going into the Combine, and I'm still confused as to how to rank them.
Dwayne Allen
was always more of a football player than a workout warrior, but that 4.89 is not going to help his stock; he'll go somewhere in the second round as an all-around option who has lined up as an H-Back, inline, as a flanker, in the slot, and split out wide.
Orson Charles
Coby Fleener
had an opportunity to impress and instead chose to sit out the 40.
Michael Egnew
is very intriguing physically at 6'5", 252; he ran a 4.62, but never seemed to have the type of impact I thought he would in games. Both
Martin Rucker
Chase Coffman
were more successful in Missouri's offense, and neither panned out.
Offensive Line
Riley Reiff
's arms didn't measure as long as expected and he now faces concerns over whether he projects better to tackle or guard. He's a tackle, but not an elite one; a little bit of a waist-bender who doesn't play with a great deal of power. The two players aren't particularly similar, but he could end up carrying a grade similar to
Anthony Castonzo
as a solid-but-unspectacular long-term option on the end of the line. I can see why someone would draft Reiff in the top ten, but I'd rather land an impact player at another position.
Mike Adams
is more talented, but his character seems a little bit suspicious. We can stop talking about his bench press numbers, though; players with long arms rarely put up a ton of reps. Remember
Nate Solder
? Also,
Zebrie Sanders
killed his stock after looking unrefined and unathletic; weren't those supposed to be his strengths?
Peter Konz
is still the best center in the draft; sorry
David Molk
, but you're going to be a fourth-round pick at best. Konz is a lock for the first round, and should end up going in the top twenty or so picks.

"To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion, to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly, to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart, to bear all cheerfully, to all bravely await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual unbidden and unconscious grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony."

SUVs just aren't as popular as they used to be. Last June, when Ford donated a 2007 Ford Escape hybrid to the Santa Monica Bay protection group Heal The Bay, the SUV sold for $37,000. A year later, the same company gives the same vehicle (well, a 2008 model) to the same group, but this time the auction price is only $33,000. Ford's announcement of this year's auction (available after the jump) says that sales of Ford hybrid SUVs at this annual event have brought in $195,000 since 2004. Five vehi

NASSAU, Bahamas (AP) -- John Travolta is among the potential witnesses at a trial starting tomorrow in the Bahamas.
An ambulance driver and a former Bahamas senator are accused of trying to extort $25 million from the actor after his chronically ill son died. They allegedly demanded money in exchange for not publicizing a document related to 16-year-old Jett Travolta's treatment.
Travolta filed an extortion complaint with Bahamas police in January, days after his son died from a seizure at a family vacation home on Grand Bahama island.
Jury selection is scheduled to begin tomorrow, and Bahamas Chief Magistrate Roger Gomez says Travolta is on a list of people prosecutors could call to testify.

Three days after trial, man faces new felony chargeJune 27,2013By Patrick McArdle
BENNINGTON — A Pleasant Street man who was found guilty earlier this month of recklessly shooting a deer from the road in November was recently arraigned on a new charge after police said he kissed a 14-year-old girl.
Joshua P. Hayes, 21, of Bennington, pleaded innocent last week in Bennington criminal court to a felony count of lewd and lascivious conduct with a child.
In an affidavit, Sgt. Michael Plusch of the Bennington Police Department said he met with a woman on June 18 who had come to the police station to report that her 14-year-old daughter was in an inappropriate relationship with an older man.
Plusch said he and Wendy Nolan, an investigator with the Vermont Department of Children and Families, met with the girl at the Bennington County Child Advocacy Center on June 19.
During the interview, the girl said she and Hayes had "developed this relationship" over the previous four weeks, primarily through text messages. She said she had told him she was 14 and he had told her that he knew he could "get in trouble" because of their relationship.
Plusch said the girl told investigators that Hayes had sent her a text message on June 16 asking her to come to his apartment. At the apartment, Hayes kissed her and bit her neck, she told police. She said the contact was consensual, according to the affidavit.
While she told police that Hayes had been drinking beer, she said she had not had any alcohol.

Franchise of the Year
This year's Franchise of the Year has found the key to getting ahead is putting other people first. They consider their sale participants to be their top priority and have made a commitment to developing and maintaining personal relationships with many of these participants not only during their sale season but throughout the year as well. They make time to listen and then quickly respond to any needs or issues that arise, knowing that it's these participants that are the very heart of their sales' success.
This year's Franchise of the Year has done a tremendous job enlisting the power of technology to create more relationships and reach a broader audience, utilizing social media through Google ads, Craigslist, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to advertise their sales events—along with some old-fashioned printed postcards of course! Many of their social media posts have performed in excess of 12,000 clicks per post!
This year's Franchise of the Year also has been faithful to work with their local nonprofit agency—Cross Services with whom they have worked for the past eight years—giving them additional support by helping them sort donations after the sale. Cross Services says of this franchisee, "The relationships you have built with your consignors and the large amounts of donations they provide each year through Just Between Friends speaks volumes to their commitment to being a part of giving back to our community." They also support local mission groups and area schools. To encourage others to support their non-profit, they began waiving consignor fees to those consignors who pledge their items for donation—honoring both their charity partner and the consignors who support them. Their Coon Rapids sales event partnered with a new clothing trailer ministry, Friend 2 Friend. This mobile ministry travels to local parks and churches to deliver clothing and kids items to those in need.
All of this has led to sales that consistently have exceeded standards of performance. They acquired an additional territory that was profitable in its first event as they were able to spread fixed costs across their sales and thereby improve profitability for ALL sales. They are quick to support other area sales and promote JBF to new and prospective owners. These owners have served the franchise system by leading small groups, serving on the Franchise Advisory Council and facilitating round tables at conference. They are a two-time honoree of the "Consignment Mommies Best" for their area and have over and over given their support to the franchise system with their positive outlook and can-do spirit.
Congratulations to Kris Bishop and Katy Saunders of Just Between Friends Eagan, Maple Grove, Coon Rapids & Eden Prairie, MN —the 2015 Winners of Franchise of the Year!

West Point's Polyarchy: A Mirror Image of American Politics
Notwithstanding the conservative political culture that structures the political life of West Point, the community has experienced some measure of economic and political change. This chapter initially provides a brief overview of the more visible examples of change in West Point and elaborates upon the forces that have promoted change in the community. This material is followed by a succinct casting of my core argument that in a broad thematic sense the politics of West Point reflect the essential character of American political life. In essence, Robert Dahl's labeling of the American political system as a "polyarchy" applies with equal and specific currency to West Point. 1 Given that polyarchy is not democracy, as Dahl emphatically argues, 2 this chapter concludes with the perspective that we need not be overly concerned with the well-documented deficiencies of the American democratic process, but should be much more concerned with democracy in terms of policy substance, especially as this bears upon the quality of American life and the vitality of the political system.
West Point's government, over the past several years, has adopted a somewhat wider scope and more positive stance on behalf of community betterment. Local political leaders have pursued an aggressive role on behalf of community improvement, including a more determined enforcement of the housing code. This has resulted in the demolition of some of the most dilapidated housing. Streets and sidewalks have been reconstructed in a highly traveled section of the community. New street signs have been erected throughout West Point. Additional recreational areas for various sporting events have been completed. An addition to the high school has been constructed. The municipal building has been substantially renovated, resulting in a much more attractive and efficient facility. Runway and other capital

Hi ladies, I have been lurking on this forum since a week ago when I had a D&C for missed miscarriage. Long story short, my first U/S was at 7 wks and no heartbeat but my hcg was high at 205,000. Dr was not optimistic, and I went back for a confirming U/S one week later (8 wks) and no fetal growth and still no heartbeat, so fetus had stopped growing at 7 weeks, yet my HCG had increased to 340,000! B/c of this my doc scheduled me for D&C 3 days later, on August 7th, stating it was more than likely a Partial Molar Pregnancy due to the too-high hcg levels that kept increasing. I've been freaking out researching PMPs and driving myself crazy with worry. It's now been over a week since my D&C and I know that they have the report in (they were waiting to call me about it because they had to have the Pathologist update the confusing wording on it or something). Well, today I still haven't heard from the doctors (FRUSTRATING), but I did see on my "patient portal" online that they had uploaded the Pathology Report and on it it says, "Note to patient": "Expected results - NOT what we were concerned about. Dr. will review with you at your next visit." I am taking that as, it is NOT the PMP they were worried about. Looking at the report, it does not mention the words "molar" or "partial molar pregnancy" anywhere on it. NOw that the office is closed I won't probably hear anything until next week, and I am cautiously optimistic that everything might be okay, but the only problem is why would my HCG levels have risen after fetus had died/stopped developing, to a level that is off any normal hcg pregnancy charts? The only reason I can find online is PMP, which the report does not mention and the cryptic note from Dr seems to indicate it is NOT. Does anyone have any clue as to why my HCG levels would have increased if it is not in fact a PMP??
Sorry for the long and confusing post but I'm just grasping at straws here and panicking since my doctors won't call me back and I know I won't hear from them until next week. My 2-week D&C follow up appointment is scheduled on next Thursday.
Thanks in advance for any guidance anyone can provide, and I'm so sorry for all of your losses. This has been the hardest thing emotionally i've ever endured - and it was DH and I's first pregnancy so it is really difficult to understand why this is happening to us.

Today, Patricia Grekowski interviews Mag. Renate Danler, director of the Hofburg Vienna and organizer of Le Grand Bal.
P.G.: "Le Grand Bal celebrates its second year. Why was the Kaiser Ball stoped and replaced by Le Grand Bal, what is the difference?"
R.D.: "The Kaiser Ball directed itself 95% to guests from abroad and was affiliated to the Austrian K&K Tradition. For example an entry of Kaiser Franz-Joseph and Sisi as well as their entrainment of the court was part of the Kaiser Ball. With Le Grand Bal in the Viennese Hofburg an outstanding ball event with all his traditional elements was created. It is a good mixture of guests from Austria and foreign countries. Especially young people identify themselves with Le Grand Bal. It is already an established high class society event."
P.G.: "What makes Le Grand Bal different from other balls in Vienna?"
R.D.: "Every single ball event in the Viennese Hofburg has its own character. Le Grand Bal is already unique because of the date. The production of decoration and shows is highly linked to the turn of the year. The guests appreciate that they can choose between a gala dinner and early entry or a later ball attendance with the general opening ceremony. The relation of the guests is exactly balanced. Every year Le Grand Bal has a new and special theme, for 2013 it was "L´Esprit Viennoise". Besides I don´t know another ball, that is as international as ours."
P.G.: "Is it mainly attended by Viennese people or tourists?"
R.D.: "It was attended by guest from 44 different countries. A third of all guests came from Austria, followed by guests from the United States, France, Germany and Russia. Our aim is to address national and international guests alike."
P.G.: "Why a French name for a Viennese ball?"
R.D.: "Le Grand Bal has its origin of naming in the French language and ceremonial. The first ball event has been organized in France. It is with purpose that Le Grand Bal refers to this historical rooting. The Viennese Hofburg is emphasized as location and monument of typical Viennese charm. It is not only a figurehead for this traditional New Year´s Eve ball, it is also an on-site event of the Viennese Hofburg."

DENVER (AP) Administrators at a Denver high school have decided to close the campus through Tuesday after bed bugs were found in a classroom.
The Denver Post reports (http://bit.ly/1aicF3n) three of the bugs were discovered recently at West High School, but a follow-up inspection determined that the campus was not infested. The school was shut down Saturday to allow exterminators to treat the building.
Students have off Monday for Columbus Day and the campus will remain closed Tuesday, before reopening Wednesday.

Respond to Review of Highline Bar
by TonyCarr
Review: All those star and pictures does not reflect the place. The food is just not that good and it is a dive. A friend had a good sandwich but while I was waiting for my food the cashier, their is no waiter was eating. They need to fire the manager and cook, hire a chef and improve their menu of some edgy vegan comfort food and this place could be a pretty hip place to go. [edit by staff]

I honestly can't remember a number for purchasing film when I first started shooting it seriously (1958!) but I suspect if we find the numbers we will find it is cheaper today, adjusted for inflation. I recall getting a 20 exposure roll of slides processed for around $1.25. I also recall a summer job after my first year in college where we were paid minimum wage. We "summer helpers" got a raise in August because the minimum wage went up -- to $1.64 per hour! Now before you laugh too hard, that would buy about six gallons of regular petrol at the time!
Anybody got a chart of inflation adjusted film prices?

This Docklands outpost of the Royal China group makes a fitting destination when disembarking from one of the modern-day clippers that whizz up and down the Thames. Imagine you're in Hong Kong as
you sit with the lunchtime crowds nibbling on highly rated dim sum – fluffy pork buns, chicken's feet, steamed dumplings and balls, crispy rolls, glutinous rice and dinky baked custard tarts. In
the evening, dip into the full menu for specialities such as deep-fried Dover sole fillet with spiced salt, braised abalone with sea cucumber, aromatic crispy duck or chicken with mango. The
alfresco terrace is a big draw, or you can eat in the handsome gold-hued dining room surrounded by lacquered screens, lucky cat figurines and tanks of live lobsters; either way, service is
professional – if a tad brusque.

The second season of Leverage kicks off on July 15.
What can fans of this TNT series look forward to?
According to star Timothy Hutton, his character goes into mega-revenge mode this season.
"Sometimes the Leverage team says, 'You know, we don't really need to go that far, Nate. It's OK.' And he says, 'No, we're going to bury this guy,'" Hutton said to TV Guide about upcoming storylines.
Of course, the unit isn't even together to kick of the season... until Sophie (pictured) lures the others to the same city, that is.

Written by Anne Earney Tuesday, 10 January 2006 04:46In today's world of "creative nonfiction," the way in which personal stories are told seems to have become more fluid. "This is what happened to me" is the unwritten preface, "no matter what the facts may say."
Arnie Burton, the solo actor in the production, is especially compelling as Mahlsdorf. The other characters are perhaps a little less believable, though that may have been because the audience wants so much to believe in Mahlsdorf, and sometimes the others' words didn't help.
Mahlsdorf, adorned in pearls and a dress throughout the performance, survived both the totalitarian and communist regimes of East Berlin, simultaneously amassing a museum-quality collection of period furniture and other antiques. As she tells it, she had many trials, triumphs, and humorous moments along the way. Wright, interviewing her in Germany on grant money, is thrilled. Then evidence comes to light which disputes parts Mahlsdorf's telling. But sometimes the counter-evidence counters itself, and the truth seems to slip away.
In today's world of "creative nonfiction," the way in which personal stories are told seems to have become more fluid. "This is what happened to me" is the unwritten preface, "no matter what the facts may say." And anytime a story is told, the teller modifies it to achieve the desired effect. Even what we remember of events is subjective; what we choose to tell, equally so. There are hard facts, and then there are those not so easy to pin down: Either one did or did not corporate with the Stasi, but how one's friends truly felt about being revealed to the Stasi is not so easy to know. Mahlsdorf either added the belongings of Jewish families to her collection or she did not, but whether or intentions were admirable is not so easy to say.
Despite the controversy, Mahlsdorf remains a likeable figure throughout the play, though perhaps not as easily so as she presented herself. While she initially seemed demure, she was actually a bold—and, in many ways, frightful—figure. The set reflected this dichotomy. Before the lights went down, the set consisted of two walls covered in blue floral paper, a double door, a pedestal, two tables, and three chairs. As soon as Burton entered, the scene became more complicated. With the lights dimmed, the wallpaper became a transparent screen behind which Wright placed some of the action. A gramophone was carried onto the stag, and a picture dropped from the ceiling, as if it had been on the wall the entire time. An entire wall of period room displays appeared behind the walls.
There is much more to I Am My Own Wife than first meets the eye. See it for the story, for the scenery, and to consider for yourself the questions inherent to biography.
