Just before Puff Daddy was crowned as the originator of New York's jiggy sound, there were two voices from the BX that did it before him, (and arguably just as well), but hardly saw the success levels of Sean Combs. Perhaps it was because Camp Lo's sound was a little more raw than Bad Boy's overly polished hit formula, or perhaps it was because Camp Lo came out just before hip-hop decided it wanted to "pop Cris", but anyone who was club-hopping anywhere in the five boroughs around 1996-1997, witnessed drinks in the air to the timeless sounds of "Luchini (This Is It)" and "Black Nostaljack ("Come On"). Five years later, freshly dipped in 'Gator skin boots, obnoxious leather hats, and stonewashed fadey pants, Camp Lo returns with Let's Do It Again.
Geechie Suede and Sonny Cheeba have had no problem adapting to today's sound of commercial rap, mainly because they helped usher it in during hip-hop's pre-jiggy era. But unlike your typical Trackmasters produced hopefuls or Def Jam backed single of the moment, Camp Lo doesn't at all sound forced; they have a natural knack for all things flossy. They have a vernacular all their own, and while Lo-Wah is somewhat of an acquired taste, they've already proven successful to the BET mainstream with "Glow", and have several other like moments on the rest of the album.
Many of the same themes from Uptown Saturday Night are revisited on Let's Do It Again, but as they say, if ain't broke, don't fix it. They stick to the script with their trademark black nostalgia of "Let's Do It Again" and "Sky Box", and still remain rooted in Good Times / Shaft era 70′s soul on tracks like "Soul Train" and "Macadame". And seemingly with a taste for pleasing women all over the world, the duo borrows international flavors from Asia ("China Soul") to Africa ("Gorilla Pimp"), not to mention the Spanish fly-shit ("Black Connect II").
While Camp Lo's lyrics may be the type to go in one ear and out the other, and their beats won't revolutionize the sound of hip-hop anytime soon, the guys definitely have a likable style, and it's one that they can call all their own. Despite being out of the game for over five years, Camp Lo returns with another solid release, that will most likely please their core fans, if not make a few new ones at the same time. Hopefully they won't wait another five years before they decide that third time's a charm.

It was a year of learning for Windsor's Tyrone Crawford during his rookie season with the Dallas Cowboys and one of the first things he learned is that the games may end, the jersey might be doffed, but when you play for America's Team, you never stop being a Dallas Cowboy.
It's a 24-7 job.
"It's like that here, Dallas, even if you went to Cabo (San Lucas on vacation)," Crawford said. "There's places where people notice that you're a bigger dude and they're going to bring up the question."
According to Crawford, the answer on those occasions is a simple one.
"You need to watch what you do and try to make good decisions, decisions that you would make when your mother's around," Crawford said. "As long as you make good decisions, and don't go out and have too much fun, you should be alright."
Crawford, 23, a six-foot-four, 285-pound defensive tackle who played his high school ball at Catholic Central, was much more than alright for the Cowboys during the 2012 campaign.
Some even suggested he might be the steal of the NFL draft. He finished the season with 20 tackles, all but three of the coming in the Cowboys' last seven games, including five solo tackles during Week 12 against the Washington Redskins.
"There were times where I got out there a lot," Crawford said. "More toward the end of the year when I was more comfortable playing the position.
"My first year in the NFL, your first couple of games, you're still getting used to it. I was going in expecting it to be really hard.
"Really, I thought it was going to be difficult all year, that I'd just keep having to learn plays, but it came easier over time as I got to know people and get more comfortable around the D line and the rest of the team.
"It was an easy process." Not that there weren't difficult times to overcome.
True adversity hit the team in December when Jerry Brown, a member of the club's practice roster, was killed in a car accident.
The driver of the car, Cowboys defensive lineman Josh Brent, is facing intoxication manslaughter charges.
"That was really tough, actually one of the toughest things I've faced in football," Crawford said of the death of Brown.
"It's easy to overcome most things, but that was hard to overcome. He was such a great kid. We just tried to honour him the best we could."
Crawford was also taken by surprise with post-season moves that included the dismissal of Dallas defensive coordinator Rob Ryan.
"The change in the coaching staff at the end of the season, I thought that was a little unexpected," he said. "It just opened my eyes to what the NFL's all about."
During an 8-8 season which saw the Cowboys post a five-game winning streak to get back into the playoff picture, only to come up one game short of the post-season with a final-game loss to Washington, Crawford believes that Dallas laid down a foundation for future success.
"I feel like with the camaraderie we had at the end of the year, we can do a lot of things," Crawford said.
With the experience he's gained, Crawford expects the same of himself.
"I feel more prepared for what I have to do and what I'm going to be doing in this off-season to be ready for the whole deal," Crawford said.
"I'm going to be more comfortable, ready to make some plays and do some good things."
Crawford is certain the Cowboys have a bright future.
The Cowboys feel the same way about Crawford.

TC TO C. G. DUFFY; 6 August 1846; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18460806-TC-CGD-01; CL 21:4-5.
SEAFORTH HOUSE, LIVERPOOL, Aug. 6, 1846.
Your hospitable and most friendly message found me here the day after my arrival. Travelling suits me very ill, only the fruit of travelling is of some worth to me. Heaven, I think, among other things, will be a place where one has leave to sit still.
The Belfast steamer, it turned out on inquiry, sailed only once a fortnight; the first day too early for my limits, the second too late. Belfast therefore was out. There remained then Dublin, and perhaps a run to Drogheda, and back again to Liverpool; which did for some days seem possible; but new perversities arose from another side, unforeseen or but half foreseen; and on the whole I have to decide that Ireland for the present is impossible; that I must embark for my mother's this night. Tomorrow morning my address, if I prosper, will be "Scotsbrig, Ecclefechan, N.B.," to which place, if you can again trouble your clerk to direct my copy of the Nation, or failing that, to return to his old Chelsea address, it will be a kind of saving of trouble. I by no means give up my notion yet of seeing you and a glimpse of Ireland before returning home, but I must attack it now on the other side, and after a variety of Scotch movements, which are still much in the vague for me. My wife stays here for a few days longer with some relations in the neighbourhood,1 and after that, I hope, will join me in Scotland; but her health at this moment is far from good, and her movements are and must be a little uncertain. She still remembers you with true interest, and is far enough from standing between me and Ireland: she rather urges me thither, did not laziness and destiny withstand. This with many real regards and regrets, and with real hopes too, is all I can say of my Irish travels at present. You shall certainly hear of me again before I return.
For the present (though this was not one of my motives) it has struck me you might be as well not to have me or any stranger near you! A crisis, and, as I augur, perhaps a truly blessed one, is even now going on in your affairs.2 For the first time I read a Conciliation Hall debate last week; the veracity and manfulness, the intelligence and dignity seemed to me to be all on one side, and the transaction, though beneficent, was to me a really tragic character. But the divorce of earnest valour from blustering and incoherent nonsense is a thing that did behove to come.3 May a blessing follow it! Much may follow. —Yours always,

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. - The Alabama swimming and diving teams came up short against the Georgia Bulldogs Saturday in the Crimson Tide's home and regular season finale. Alabama's men fell to the No. 10 ranked Bulldogs in a nail biter that came down to the last relay, 152-148, while the Tide women fell to No. 5 Georgia, 173-121.
"Our men took Georgia right down to the final relay," UA head coach Eric McIlquham said. "We had to take first and third and we took first and fourth. On the women's side Georgia overwhelmed us, but on both sides we had some great individual performances which will help take us into the postseason."
The Crimson Tide honored its 10-member senior class prior to the meet and then senior Ida Persson anchored the women's opening 200 medley relay to a win while senior Joe Ziegler earned Alabama's first individual win on the men's side, taking first in the 100 backstroke with a 50.17. Ziegler also won the 200 backstroke with a 1:46.64 and anchored the Tide's winning 400 freestyle relay.
"This senior class has done a tremendous job," McIlquham said. "They hold nine school records between them and have an average grade point average of 3.8. I'm looking forward to seeing how they close out their careers in the championship season."
Sophomore Alex Coci also won three events, taking first in the 100 and 200 butterfly with times of 48.62 and 1:47.36 respectively, as well as leading off the 400 freestyle relay.
Sophomore BJ Hornikel kept his two-season long regular season win streak in the 100 freestyle alive, dominating the field with 44.66, more than a second head of his nearest competitor. Sophomore Devan Terry won the 100 breaststroke with a time of 56.63 while sophomore Jake Carloni posted the first win of his UA career after scoring 336.38 points off the 3-meter board.
On the women's side of the meet, the Tide divers swept the meet with sophomore Paige McCleary winning the 1-meter board and freshman Lisa Bogosian picking up the first win of her Tide career off the 3-meter board. McCleary scored a while Bogosian posted a 294.38
Freshman Kaylin Burchell continued her winning ways in the breaststroke events, taking first in the 200 with a time of 2:16.08, as well as swimming a leg on UA's winning 200 medley relay.
With the regular season behind it, Alabama opens up the postseason at the Southeastern Conference Championships in Knoxville, Tenn. , starting Feb. 15.

J. Scott Applewhite, File, Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A trio of female firsts and three former GOP presidential contenders are among the first speakers disclosed for the Republican National Convention at the end of the month in Tampa, Fla.
The convention schedule is packed with high-profile names to fire up divergent wings of the Republican Party, from social conservatives to fiscal hawks. They will speak before Mitt Romney accepts the presidential nomination.
Convention leaders were not ready to announce the keynote speaker, a prime speaking slot that has the potential to catapult a rising member of the party to national prominence.
The schedule's outlines were first reported late Sunday by The Tampa Bay Times and were confirmed to The Associated Press by Republican officials with direct knowledge of the plan. The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity because convention officials had not yet announced the schedule.
South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley and New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez, the first female governors of their states, are among party leaders slated to address the gathering that begins Aug. 27. Martinez has the additional distinction of being the country's first female Hispanic governor.
Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, the first black female to hold that job, is also scheduled to speak.
Sen. John McCain of Arizona was set to speak, as well as a one-time rival, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee. The two, along with Romney, vied for the 2008 presidential nomination. McCain outlasted Romney and the former Baptist pastor in the primary campaign.
Ohio Gov. John Kasich, who briefly ran for the GOP nomination in 2000, also was to speak at the convention along with Florida Gov. Rick Scott, whose state is playing host. Both are tea party favorites and are set to speak to fiscal issues many Republicans hold dear.
"They are some of our party's brightest stars, who have governed and led effectively and admirably in their respective roles," Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said in prepared remarks. "These speakers — and those that will be announced later — will help make it a truly memorable and momentous event."
Republicans are holding back on announcing other speakers, including the keynote speaker.
In 2004, a little-known state senator from Illinois named Barack Obama used his turn at the Democratic National Convention in Boston to gain national prominence and — four years later — the White House.
When someone is announced as keynote speaker that could indicate that Romney has decided against that person as a running mate.
Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida and Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin are both big names in the party believed to be among those Romney is weighing for the vice presidential slot or for the keynote address. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Sen. Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire and Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio also were noticeably absent from the slate of announced speakers and may be contenders for running mate.
If passed over for the vice presidential pick, there is a very good chance they would earn speaking slots — if not the keynote.
The speakers already announced suggest where Romney is looking to make progress as voters start to pay attention to the fall campaign.
The all-important female vote clearly is a priority — evidenced by the choices of Haley, Martinez and Rice. Polls through the spring showed President Barack Obama outpacing Romney among female voters, although strategists from both parties say that gender gap is narrowing. A strong play for female voters at the convention should be expected.

College Hockey:D-III Frozen Four picks: March 15 (Tim Costello)
Friday, March 15
Norwich vs. Oswego
This one should be one for the ages, with two teams that have been here four straight times. Expect an overtime thriller that goes to the Cadets based on balance and an incredible senior class that has been there before. Norwich 3-2 (OT )
Wisconsin-Eau Claire vs. Utica
It's a battle between two of the nation's best goaltenders and likely All-Americans; Stephenson and co. just a bit better to make it to the final. Wis.-Eau Claire 4-3
Saturday, March 16
Norwich vs. Wis.-Eau Claire
Believe in the "been there before" theory, and the history favors the Cadets, who find their seniors bookending their career with a second national,championship. Norwich 3-1

Blog Roll: An Ethanol Pipeline?
Writing at The Energy Blog, James Fraser, who is otherwise a fan of ethanol, doesn't think much of an Iowa congressman's idea to build underground pipelines to carry ethanol and biodiesel to gas stations across the country. "Without doing any analysis it would seem to me that all the ethanol that could be produced could be consumed within 500 miles of its point of production," he writes.
Writing from the American Wind Energy Association's Windpower 2007 conference in Los Angeles, Herman Trabish is bullish on the future of wind power. "Wind energy is growing as fast as it humanly can," he writes at his New Energy News blog. "Not bleeding, won't be leading anywhere but the investment news. But wind energy has advocates, investors, technicians and planners and they are all as busy as they can be, ready to get busier, and nobody's complaining about peak wind. Really."

Brenda Schad
The image of the supermodel as this beautiful creature who won't get out of bed for less than £10,000 just isn't true. -Brenda Schad
Although her WonderBra advertisements have made her famous, she has nonetheless appeared on many magazine covers and become a hot feature for fashion shows.
Brenda Schad BiographyKnown mostly as Miss Wonderbra, this supermodel can be considered Wonder Woman thanks to her strength, independence, charitable nature, and down-to-earth attitude. There is a lot we don't know about Brenda Schad, besides her heart-stopping, impeccable beauty.
Adoptive parents raised Brenda Schad after her 15-year old, unmarried mother put her up for adoption. It was no secret to Brenda that she was adopted, since she was always aware of who her birth mother was.
Although it may seem somewhat hard to believe, Brenda was not the knockout she is today, with orthodontic treatment that was less then flattering and a hairdo that only made matters worse. A late bloomer with no confidence in her looks, Brenda has obviously gotten well passed that stage of her life.
Others saw passed her awkward looks, since she was approached at the age of 14 and was offered the opportunity to become a model while she was in a store in Japan trying on a bathing suit.
Brenda's life went in a completely different direction once she began modeling. She started to model full-time and got married at the age of 19. Going against her parents' wishes (and incidentally her own), Brenda went through with the wedding and soon learned that married life was not for her. She and her husband are now divorced.
Presently signed with Elite Model Management in Paris and Premier in London, Brenda may not have had a successful life as a wife, but she has sure proven to be successful as a model. She has graced the covers of magazines such as Cosmopolitan UK, Tatler UK, and GQ UK.
Brenda has also modeled for Lord & Taylor, Van Cleef & Arpels, and her most famous advertising campaign, the Triumph Wonderbra.
What makes Brenda stand out from the slew of supermodels that we normally see posted on ads and magazine covers is her attitude. She did not come from a life and childhood of luxury; she would wear her mother's second hand clothes since she was the same size as her mother.
Her own job as a mother is one that she knows she was destined for and considers her daughter Sterling Victoria to be her greatest gift. Raising her daughter, even if it means as a single mother, is a career that she would never trade in.
In the meantime, Brenda recognizes the fact that a career as a model is one with a very short life expectancy. She hopes to pursue another career when her time as a model comes to an end, either as a writer or in politics.
On the romantic front, Brenda was formerly dating British millionaire Robert Hanson, who she met at a party when he was Naomi Campbell's date. Although people accused Brenda of being attracted to Hanson's money, this could not be further from the truth.
The fact that she disagrees with supermodel Linda Evangelista's "I don't get out of bed for less than $10,000 a day," proves all accusers wrong.
Active in charitable causes, Brenda has become extremely militant to the Native American cause, and founded the Native American Children's Fund in Oklahoma.
Brenda has proved that her supermodel status goes well beyond her looking beautiful on glossy paper; but who can deny that her beauty is what makes us want to stare at her all day -- and all night -- long.

Dvd Release Date: 1999-10-26
Genre: Family, Comedy
Rating: G
Duration: 1hr 23min
The Muppets are still searching for another species like Gonzo. Dr. Bunsen Honeydew, along with his assistant Beaker, theorize that Gonzo may have come from an alien race, possibly the one that crash-landed in Roswell in 1947! The Muppets travel to "Area 51" and, after an encounter with a particularly surly MIB Agent (Terry "Hulk Hogan" Bollea), break in (with a little help from Bobo). They then find that Gonzo was the only of his race to escape from the crash-landing, and that he suffered from amnesia as a result of not being in contact with others of his own kind. Now that they are all together again, Gonzo regains his memory. He then realizes that, since he has returned, his race can return to their planet, via a odd-looking (you'll have to see it for yourself) spaceship. Now, Gonzo has to face an awful decision: will he leave his friends to return to his own kind, or will he stay with the muppets and deny his race the opportunity to return home at last?

(Note that you'll have to tack something onto the order; this item by itself doesn't meet the required minimum.)

Hipstersexuals: The Obnoxious Ninjas of Terrorism
When you picture terrorists, you picture islamists with stolen uzis and hand grenades running into a government building of this Christian Nation. But there's a more subtle type of terrorism going on in America. Yes, terrorism of the mind. That, we can mainly credit to the hipstersexual movement and traitors like Obamney who tolerate or motivate them.
As you know, hipstersexuals aim to diverge society from the mainstream. But things are mainstream for a reason. Heterosexuality is mainstream because it works and because Jesus won't hate you if you do it. Christianity is mainstream because it's the truth. Republicanism is mainstream because it's the only moral political party in this cold, wild world. Meanwhile, hipstersexuals are out advocating their pretentious hipstersexual stores like Urban Outfitters and Anthropologie and occupying Wall Street like little rabid socialists. There's a reason normal people don't do that.
Hipstersexuals are occupying pop culture faster than any other cult, because they seem to have a penchant for occupying stuff. You will find flash-in-the-pan starlets wearing bright pink Ray-Bans and B-list actors growing beards. I like to think that, once it reaches Hollywood, the epidemic has truly began. The worst cases of this include with homosexuality, veganism, atheism, atheism's wimpy cousin agnosticism, scientology and Apple. Your children are being exposed to this sinfest if you allow them to watch TV or go to the supermarket and see the little botoxed gremlins in the tabloids. YOUR CHILDREN. Process that. Hipstersexuality is essentially every parent's worst enemy because of this.
But what is the scariest is the violent, neo-muslim ironic turn hipstersexual music is aiming for. Listen to the chorus of the sinful song, "We Are Young" by fun. I was exposed to this song through the facebook wall of the alumni page for my alma mater. Anyways, it terrifies me. Why, beyond the blatant hipstersexual Daria-inspired apathy and the sexual undertones? These lines. "Tonight, we are young. So let's set the world on fire, we can burn brighter than the sun." This is a new level of terrorism, and it is afflicting all aspects of the hipstersexual lifestyle. You may also be aware of a (bafflingly popular) hipstersexual chant of gore named "Pumped Up Kicks" by some obnoxious Canadian band. This is a song about a boy who obtains a gun and decides to threaten other children with it. Is this a message we want to send to our youth? Or, even more ominously, is the hipstersexual movement about to bring the earth on a trip to a revisionist 9/11 terror chamber?
The hipstersexual mentality is a terrifying Nietsche-esque wet dream of collosal terror. The philosophy they live by is one driven by evil and satanic madness. We must band together to stop the hipstersexuals before it's too late!

Fred Bartenstein's history with Bluegrass goes back to the late-1960's when he became heavily involved with the beginning of Bluegrass festivals and the fan press with Muleskinner News. His most new book, Bluegrass Bluesman: A Memoir, focuses on Dobro legend "Uncle" Josh Graves. Today he tells us a little more about the book and his history with the music.
Music Tomes: Bluegrass Bluesman is compiled from three different sources and it seems that all were happy to share that information. This, to me, illustrated perfectly the bluegrass community. Do you have a sense of why these people felt it important to get the information out instead of withholding it with a "One day, I'll publish it" attitude?
Fred Bartenstein: Barry Willis did eight days of interviews with Josh Graves in 1994. He and his friend Mike Dow were authorized by Josh to prepare his biography. Willis gave the transcripts to me in 2008, after Graves's death in 2006, when it became clear that he and Dow weren't going to complete the project. Bobby Wolfe published his 1990 interview with Josh in Bluegrass Unlimited; both he and BU authorized me to use that material. Stacey Phillips published his 1993 interview with Josh in Mel Bay Publications' 2002 Complete Dobro Player; both he and Mel Bay authorized me to use that material. Twenty-four of Josh's contemporaries and disciples contributed their written testimony. A number of photographers, museums, and collectors contributed use of historic photographs, and noted experts graciously reviewed drafts and made suggestions. The bluegrass community is great about sharing and I'm grateful to my many collaborators. We all know that there's no big money to be made in bluegrass, so we mainly do it out of love and respect for the music and pioneering artists.
MT: You served as editor of Muleskinner News, a fanzine/magazine in the late 1960's and early 1970's. How did you get involved with that?
FB: When I was 14 I attended the very first bluegrass festival, held in 1965 near Roanoke, Virginia. I became acquainted with the promoter, Bluegrass Hall of Fame member Carlton Haney (1928-2011). In 1967 I was drafted to MC the festival stage when the announcer was called away for a family emergency. Haney liked my work and used me on a number of his bluegrass and country shows. I worked for him during the summers of 1969-1974, my college years. In 1969 we started Muleskinner News and I edited it until January of 1975, when I started a "day job" in Dayton, Ohio. I'm gratified that people continue to quote and highly regard Muleskinner News, which published in its day a lot of important material on bluegrass music history.
MT: The sense of community extends to another project on your Web site, Bluegrass Generations. Tell us a little bit about that project and its origins.
FB: In 2005, Western Kentucky University hosted the first-ever academic conference on bluegrass music. For that event, I decided to compile and analyze biographical information on 680 bluegrass and pre-bluegrass recording artists, looking for interesting patterns that would inform my thinking and that of others about the history of bluegrass. My research is summarized at http://www.fredbartenstein.com/bluegen.html , including downloadable tables of all the data for use by anyone. I've worked on a publishable paper on the Bluegrass Generations research, but haven't yet found a place to publish it.
MT: What are you currently working on?
FB: I wrote a number of the biographies of Bluegrass Hall of Fame members for the International Bluegrass Music Museum website. I think it would be good to compile the 50-some profiles into a book with great photographs, and the Museum and I are working on putting that project together.
MT: Can you recommend some of your favorite music tomes?
FB: Bluegrass: A History by Neil Rosenberg (Illinois, 1985, rev. 2005), The Bluegrass Reader, edited by Thomas Goldsmith (Illinois, 2004), Meeting Jimmie Rodgers by Barry Mazor (Oxford, 2009), Can't You Hear Me Callin': The Life of Bill Monroe by Richard D. Smith (Little, Brown, 2000), Pressing On: The Roni Stoneman Story, as told to Ellen Wright (Illinois, 2007)

Welcome to the seventh annual SNN Predicts series of articles (eighth overall, if you count the 2004 version done on the forums, lost to the mists of time but notable for the fact that I went 0-4 in series involving the Flames), in which we act like we know what we're talking about and make our (mostly) blindingly obvious predictions, with a shocking amount of success, considering some mainstream reporters usually wind up under .500 by the time the Stanley Cup is finally awarded somewhere around Canada Day. This is also at least my fifth year in a row copying and pasting the same intro, because I'm cool like that.
This year we've got a slightly confusing playoff format change, which as produced an unfortunate set of matchups out west. Unfortunate in the sense that two Cup contenders will be gone before half of Canada's changed out their winter tires; we could have some rollicking fun watching those series in the meantime. Meanwhile, out east we have one elite team, one team riding its reputation, and a collection of question marks filling out the ranks. All of which should make for one confusing set of predictions. New this year: thanks to Extra Skater I can do some back-of-the-envelope fancystats on the season series, which is exactly as exciting as it sounds. Whether I mean that ironically or not depends on your perspective, I suppose. Given that I didn't have much time to watch the NHL this year, it's pretty much all I have to go on, so expect a lot of dry numbers and not much awareness of anything else; it served me shockingly well last year.
In keeping with the "new format" idea, we have a new tiebreaker. Specifically, I jacked it from the NHL.com brackets: first tiebreaker is correct champion, second is correct runner-up, third is closest to the correct number of goals, over or under (no Price is Right rules).
With that, let's get to it.
Smythe Division Semifinals
(1) Anaheim vs. (4*) Dallas
Playoff History: Two previous meetings, both of which are long enough ago you can count the number of survivors on one hand. The Cinderella Ducks upset the Stars in 2003, while the much more evenly-matched 2008 series went to lower-seeded Dallas.
Previously On…Survivor: The Ducks were a paper tiger, eventually tamed by the Red Wings in round one; the Stars haven't been to the dance since 2008, when they ousted the Ducks and Sharks before bowing out to Detroit in the conference finals.
Season Series: Dallas had a 2-1 record in the season series, outscoring Anaheim 11-9. With the score close, the two teams played 92.6 minutes; Dallas had a 53.7% possession edge and a 105.7% PDO.
Doogie Says: Much like last year, the Ducks seem like a team whose record doesn't reflect what they do on the ice. It's tempting to think that when a team rides the percentages to two division championships in a row, there may be something to that, but given that they were already mid-regression last year when the season ended, that seems unlikely. Dallas had a bit of a bad run during February-March, but seem to have levelled out of that and look at least decent going into the playoffs. Both teams seem pretty high-event, especially on special teams, which means this could be one of the more free-flowing, high-scoring series of round one, though both teams' starters have solid numbers at even strength. I can't find any injuries that would be real game-changers here, either. I was all set to go "Stars in six," out of sheer apathy, because I couldn't find anything else worth making a distinction over, until a couple of people pointed out the Stephane Robidas Factor. I'm looking at the team-level data and I don't see it, at least not yet. Prior to getting Robidas back, the Ducks were at 50.4% possession; in 14 games since then, the Ducks are 50.0%. When Robidas got hurt, Dallas was at 52.2%; since then, 51.3%. It's a drop, but not by a ton. He has a good track record in tough minutes, though, so surely that will reflect itself in the team play sooner than later. So, do I gamble on Dallas's small possession advantage, or the Ducks' ability to maintain their percentages in a seven-game sample? Holding my nose, flipping a coin…Stars in seven. Ugh.
Gerard Says: I didn't think the Ducks would even make the playoffs this year. Or last year. Yes, they're the Western Maple Leafs at this point, and the wheels need to fall off eventually, but I don't see it happening against Dallas. Ducks in four.
Matt Says: In my couple of days of lead up and reading to make some opinions on these playoffs, I haven't really read anything that would sway me one way or the other, so I'm going with a purely gut guess here and saying Ducks in five.
(2) San Jose vs. (3) Los Angeles
Playoff History: These teams have met twice in the last three playoffs, each claiming one series victory. Both were close, and this time is unlikely to be different.
Previously On…Survivor: As you can see above, the Kings ousted the Sharks in a hard-fought second-round series last year, before falling to the eventual champion Blackhawks.
Season Series: The Kings finished 3-1-1 against San Jose after 65, with a 12-8 total score. I refuse to count shootout wins or losses anymore; they're just not hockey. In terms of possession, in 153.3 minutes of score-close time, the Kings had a 56.7% possession advantage and a 102.2% PDO.
Doogie Says: This is a battle of the titans, a series that could easily have been played in rounds two or three but fate has decreed we see in round one. Honestly, either one of these teams could win the Stanley Cup and I'd go "yeah, sure, okay." And one of them's gonna be gone in two weeks. It's not fair. Anyway, in looking at both the team-level and matchup-level stats, it seems pretty easy to favour the Kings over the Sharks here. LA have been possession monsters all year, and became even more so with the acquisition of Marian Gaborik. Much like in 2012, when the acquisition of Jeff Carter seemed to solve their inability to finish, the Gaborik trade also seemed to correct their low-percentage tailspin. San Jose does have an ace up their sleeve with the return of rookie sensation Tomas Hertl, which gives their forward group a much different look, though who knows how long it'll take him to get back up to game speed. They can also proclaim that, this year aside, their starter has a better long-term track record than LA's: Quick's .929 at EV is just his second season significantly above .920 since 2010, while Niemi's .919 is his worst by far over the same time frame. If the two goalies play closer to their respective track records than their current seasons, that does favour San Jose, but at that point I think you're sort of reaching a bit. The Sharks' high-octane PP and slightly stingier PK seem more likely to be a mark in their favour, though one wonders just how many penalties are going to be called, given how referees like to pocket their whistles after Game 2 of the first round. While I enjoy the Sharks' style aesthetically more, I think the Kings are going to be just slightly more effective over the course of a series. It'll be another tight one, but let's go with Kings in seven.
Gerard Says: Raffi is back. Put on your hard-hats. Sharks in six.
Matt Says: Is it too early to start listening for the sounds of choking? Kings in six.
Norris Division Semifinals
(1) Colorado vs. (4) Minnesota
Playoff History: This actually mirrors the Anaheim-Dallas history above: a Cinderella team upsetting a heavy favourite in 2003, followed by the other team winning the more even matchup as the lower seed in 2008.
Previously On…Survivor: The Avs' last trip to the playoffs was a squeaker in 2010; they got enough bounces to claim two games from San Jose before eventually dropping out. Minnesota, meanwhile, were bounced by the Hawks in round one last year.
Season Series: The Avs won the season series 3-0-2 with a 15-10 total score, but the (admittedly small-sample) fancystats tell a different tale: Minnesota owned a 53.1% possession advantage in 160.3 minutes with the score close, and just an 85.0% (!!) PDO.
Doogie Says: If the Sharks-Kings series is the ultimate battle of the titans, then this is the ultimate battle of the proverbial 98 lb weaklings, with both teams in the bottom-ten of the possession standings and Colorado in particular looking not so much like a paper tiger as, to borrow a phrase, a biscuit raft. Between a hot goaltending by the wife-beater, a sky-high PPSH%, and a borderline-draft-lottery possession score, the Avs have all the makings of a fake division champion. That's not to say that Minnesota's anything to write home about, either, but since the deadline they've managed to recover to around 50% possession after spending half the season in the tank with only percentages keeping them within striking distance; seems like Matt Moulson's arrival has helped in that regard. Minny's crease situation looks pretty decent, too: Bryzgalov and Kuemper have gotten the job done in the absence of Backstrom and Harding, though both have gotten lit up on the PK, which has depressed their numbers somewhat. Speaking of the PK, while Minny's PKSV% is low, they give up among the fewest chances in the NHL, whereas Colorado gives up among the most; neither PP generates a ton of shots, though Minny is slightly better on that front than the Avs. Oh, and did I mention Matt Duchene, one of Colorado's real play-drivers, is out for the series, and the criminally underrated Jan Hejda is out for at least Game 1? Sure, Granlund and Brodziak are questionable, too, and while that could hurt, I don't think it's as bad, on balance. This, like Anaheim-Dallas, has the makings of a reasonable upset prediction, so I'm gonna go with Wild in six.
Gerard Says: I hate Minnesota. And, like my pick of Anaheim, I think the Avs are working mostly on smoke and mirrors at this point. But, like my Anaheim pick, I just don't see the wheels coming off here. Avalanche in five.
Matt Says: As Doogie mentions, Duchene being out is worrying, but I have enough faith, blind as it might be, in my team to not let that worry me too much. They've had such a turnaround under Roy that I've been pleasantly surprised. I'm going with Gerard in this, and saving my first round upset for later. Avs in five.
(2) St. Louis vs. (3) Chicago
Playoff History: Nothing like a good old fashioned Norris Division matchup. Seven of the ten playoff series came during the original division-playoff era; odds are good that you won't be able to swing a cat on YouTube without hitting a Hawks-Blues brawl video. Just one matchup in the last twenty years, though; this rivalry's in dire need of renewal.
Previously On…Survivor: Chicago won their second Stanley Cup in four years, while St. Louis lost in round one to the Kings.
Season Series: The Hawks hold a 2-1-2 series edge after 65, with a 17-12 score advantage. The two teams spent 191 minutes playing with the score close, the most of any first-round matchup; Chicago had a 54.8% possession advantage and a 103.2% PDO.
Doogie Says: Just as the Smythe had a 1-4 that looks a bit suspect and a 2-3 that looks like a conference final, so too does the Norris, with top-ten possession teams Chicago and St. Loo facing off. As with the SJ-LA matchup, though, the three seed is a monster while the two seed is just a little bit less so, and the two seed comes in with even more suspect goaltending this time around. Ryan Miller hasn't really gotten the job done since coming to Missouri, with just a .913 EVSV% since the deadline. That probably won't continue, but even so, it is cause for concern, especially with Jaroslav Halak having put up a much more respectable .928 prior to the deal and .922 since. Chicago, meanwhile, looks fine in net, as long as Corey Crawford doesn't get hurt, of course. Both teams are surprisingly middle of the pack when it comes to creating PP chances, though St. Louis has finished on an abnormally high percentage of them. Meanwhile, St. Louis does give up a bit less on the PK, which could prove a slight advantage, even if their marginally high PKSV% comes down. Injuries are a real X-factor here; both teams are getting a large volume of quality players off of IR just in time, and who knows what shape any of them will be in. Like SJ-LA, this series could really go either way, but I think I'm leaning Blackhawks in seven.
Gerard Says: Injuries happen, and I'm always suspicious of how healthy a player is if they come back on the first day of the playoffs. I feel so strongly that this series will be a coin toss that I'm giving it to the Blues in a lopsided series. Because that's how I roll. Blues in five.
Matt Says: No real reasoning or research here, I just think Blackhawks in six.
Adams Division Semifinals
(1) Boston vs. (4) Detroit
Playoff History: This is the second-largest gap between series in NHL history, without a franchise going defunct at some point. The last Bruins-Red Wings series was 57 years ago, during the heart of the six-team era. The record-holder? Detroit-NY Rangers (64 years and counting).
Previously On…Survivor: The Bruins came within 17 seconds of a seventh game in the Cup Finals (LOL). Detroit ousted the Ducks and pushed the Blackhawks to a 3-1 deficit before eventually losing in seven.
Season Series: The Red Wings surprisingly won the season series 3-1, with a 13-9 goal differential. Yeah, they only played four games; I thought it was supposed to be five. Anyway, at score-close they played 105.9 minutes, and Boston had the 57.1% possession advantage but just an 88.8% PDO.
Doogie Says: It's a testament to how good the Bruins were last year that they could lose Tyler Seguin and barely miss a beat. That's not to say that I advocate giving up on high-scoring 21-year-olds with the regularity that the Bruins have (see also Kessel, Phil), but so far it hasn't burned them, so I guess they can get away with it. Anyway, the Bruins are an interesting case, in that some in stats circles have started to suspect they may be the exception to the rule that systems don't significantly affect SV%: they've been posting absurd numbers for enough years that it can't entirely be a coincidence, unless you believe Tim Thomas went from journeyman to generational talent at age 35 or whatever. (I also suspect the Kings are doing something that suppresses their SH%, but I digress.) Regardless, it's hard to look at the numbers and not thing Boston sort of runs away with this. Yes, Detroit has struggled through a lot of injuries to key players this year, though Gustav Nyquist's hot streak has saved them a little, but they're still not going to be fully healthy coming into this series (Henrik Zetterberg is still out), and Jimmy Howard has been merely average in net this year. Special teams don't confer any greater advantage: Boston generates way more on the PP, and gives up less on the PK. I'm trying to find a silver lining for the Wings here beyond "Datsyuk's back," and I'm really not finding it. Boston's (relatively) healthy, Boston's good, Boston's deep. Unless Henrik Lundqvist and the Rangers can really turn on the jets in the conference finals, I really don't see anyone in the Wales getting in their way. Bruins in five.
Gerard Says: I was in New Jersey last week and saw a guy in an Iginla Burins jersey. I congratulated him on the President's Trophy and he spat back at me, "Fucking right! We're going to win it all! Fucking again!" with a look of disgust on his face that I'd said anything about the Bruins at all, regardless of it being a compliment. Red Wings in seven.
Matt Says: See what Doogie wrote, he stole my post. Honest. Nothing against the Wings, but of the two, Boston is my team. Bruins in four.
(2) Tampa Bay vs. (3) Montreal
Playoff History: The Habs were a speed bump en route to Tampa's (questionably-obtained) 2004 Stanley Cup championship. At the time, a deal was made about the fact that no team had swept the Habs then gone on to win the Cup since the Red Wings did it in the Finals in 1952. This, like many other Habs Stanley Cup trivia bits, is slowly coming apart as everyone realizes that Montreal was just incredibly well-run for 30-odd years and don't possess any other special magicks.
Previously On…Survivor: The Bolts haven't made the playoffs since their surprise run to within a game of the Finals in 2011. The Habs made the playoffs last year, but were upset by the Sens in five games in round one.
Season Series: The Lightning were undefeated in regulation, going 2-0-2 in Real Hockey and outscoring Montreal 7-4 in a low-scoring season series. At score-close, the teams played 159.9 minutes, and Tampa had a whopping 56.0% possession advantage and a 99.3% PDO.
Doogie Says: I was all set to call this one "Lightning in five" and move on, but Ben Bishop is definitely out for Game 1 and may be gone for the entire series. This immediately changes the entire dynamic, because the only thing the Habs have going for them, really, is goaltending. I mean, don't get me wrong, this is a heck of a team on paper, but Michel Therrien is French for "Randy Carlyle"; his bizarre usage of his players has caused what might be the largest drop in possession from one season to the next in the fancystats era. Carey Price has posted a Vezina-calibre year, though, so a team with lottery-level puck possession came within a shootout of having home ice in the first round. Tampa has managed to survive the loss of Steven Stamkos for half the year, and Martin St. Louis in a surprisingly acrimonious deadline deal. People who've seen more games than me have pointed to rookie Ondrej Palat and free-agent signing Valtteri Filppula as factors: they've both been used in top-six roles and looked pretty good in them, though Palat is riding a few percentages. And as good as Price has been, Bishop has been pretty close: his EVSV% is just 0.002 back of Price's. But without Bishop, goaltending duties fall to Anders Lindback, who's been decidedly meh, and Olympic sensation Kristers Gudlevskis, best known for holding back the Canadian onslaught in a narrow 2-1 victory over Latvia. And Montreal, while no great shakes on the PP, are surprisingly far better at generating shots than Tampa's been this year (though again, the loss of Stamkos probably depressed that severely). But with Alex Galchenyuk out, the Habs are missing a piece of the puzzle up front, too. Sigh…okay, let's go with another upset: Carey Price in seven. This series has "goalie theft" written all over it.
Gerard Says: Part of me wants the Habs to lose. I'm totally fine with no Canadian teams winning if the Oilers can't make the playoffs. However, I do want the Red Wings to win the East. And the best chance for the Red Wings to win the East, is for the Habs to win this series. Habs in six.
Matt Says: I'll throw this one up first before it gets too far into the game. Damn traffic. Much like Doogie, I figure this series is going to come down to Price…how long can his Olympic Gold, playing great hockey, whatever you want to call it, hold out? But, lets face it, Price is the better option than either of Tampa's alternates…or will Tampa call up Vasilevski now that his season is over in the KHL? Habs in six.
Patrick Division Semifinals
(1) Pittsburgh vs. (4) Columbus
Playoff History: None. This is Columbus's second post-season appearance in franchise history, and their first as part of the Wales Conference.
Previously On…Survivor: The Pens were swept in the conference finals by the Bruins. The Jackets' only past playoff appearance was back in 2009, when they were swept by the Red Wings.
Season Series: The Pens won all five games against Columbus, outscoring them 16-7 in the process. In 161.3 minutes of score-close hockey, the Jackets had the 52.7% possession advantage and 95.5% PDO.
Doogie Says: So far, my pattern has by and large been to pick on the basis of score-close fancystats, but I'm making an exception on this one. Partially, because the gap is pretty narrow. Partially, because Pittsburgh's top six is still one of the best in the league, even if their depth has been ruined by injury, time, and diminishing returns from trades. (They're also naturally going to have high on-ice percentages because Crosby and Malkin are rock stars.) Partially, because Columbus has two important forwards in RJ Umberger and Nathan Horton potentially out for the series, while Pittsburgh is getting all their important people back healthy just in time. It's easy to go, "but Fleury," and yes, that's an excellent point, given that his post-Stanley Cup playoff numbers are sub-Pavelec. But the Pens appear to be getting Tomas Vokoun back after a season-long hip infection; he recently played a few games of conditioning in Wilkes-Barrie. If Fleury Fleurys it up again, they do have that fallback, and in all honesty, one of these years he has to not suck in the playoffs, right? Like, he's not an All-Star or anything, but he's not rotten. His regular season record is perfectly adequate. I have serious doubts about Pittsburgh's ability to get out of their own division, despite their gaudy point totals, but I don't think Lumbus has enough to give here. They'll be gamers but I've got Penguins in six.
Gerard Says: Columbus will have an easier time in the East than they did in the West. But Pittsburgh is mostly healthy. If Fleury isn't horrible, the Pens need to take this one. Penguins in four.
Matt Says: Every bit of common sense in my brain says that this series will be one for the Penguins, but I can't help thinking that if there's going to be a surprise upset, this will be the one…Fluery's meltdowns, Letang's stroke, Malkin's …desire, my dislike of Crosby…just something about all that coupled with the "lack of pressure" (IE. Expectations of greatness) on the Jackets side lead me to say Columbus in seven.
(2) NY Rangers vs. (3) Philadelphia
Playoff History: Another good old-fashioned '80s division rivalry that we haven't seen much from in the Gary Bettman era.
Previously On…Survivor: The Rangers beat the Caps in seven before losing to Boston in five. Philly missed out in 2013; in 2012, they fell to the Devils in five in the second round.
Season Series: The Rangers and Flyers split the season series at two games apiece, with each team winning their home games. The Rangers had a score advantage of 10-8, and with the score close, a 55.7% possession advantage and 103.4% PDO in just 69.4 minutes, the lowest total per game out of these matchups.
Doogie Says: The Rangers might secretly be the best team in the Patrick. Save for a couple of major dips, their possession has been excellent all year, they have a perennially excellent goaltender, and they just added Martin St. Louis to an already star-rich lineup. Okay, so he hasn't been able to finish to save his life since the deal, but even at his age, he's too good for that to be a thing for long. Philly? Euch. They've got some great players, but their D remains a sinkhole after the first pairing, and while Steve Mason looks like he's finally turned a corner, I remain leery until I see him do it for more than one full season. He's also entering the series off an injury, which makes me even more nervous abou thim. Both teams have high-shot-volume PPs and low-shot-volume PKs; the Rangers look slightly better at both, but not by a ton. Oh, and the Flyers haven't beaten the Rangers at MSG in three years. That may not be massively important in the grand scheme of things, but playoff series aren't really grand schemes, now are they? Rangers in five.
Gerard Says: Like my Habs pick, I'm really only choosing the Flyers for the best route for the Wings to take the East. Realistically, I expect the Rangers will win, and I'm curious to see if anyone in this city cares (on an Oilers level) if they do. Flyers in seven.
Matt Says: I want to give the edge to the Flyers, I really do. But part of me is thinking that the Rangers will be able to deal with Mason. So…Flyers in six. And this will be a good series to watch, methinks.
Stanley Cup Final Picks
Doogie says: Los Angeles over Boston, 34 goals.
Gerard says: San Jose over Detroit, 20 goals.
Matt says: Colorado over Boston, 25 goals.

I like Epigrams and Interludes in Beyond Good and Evil.... little snippets of Nietzschean wit and wickedness, and the syphillytic nuttiness.
I think Militiades did a nice job describing the "Overman" concept, but....

I'd argue that this statement implies that someone who tries to explain everything rationally, should live and think rational at every turn, and that this statement is an absolute one. As it is, it could be regarded as irrational itself, as it implies you should be rational at every turn, without thought.
In any case, I think that setting out goals for yourself in a world you perceive to have rationally none, is merely a way of getting through your life, which you acknowledge has no meaning, but which you are happy to have, because it gives you some sort of happiness.
I understand that happiness is subjective, that it is different for everyone. Therein lies danger, as you and myself have hinted to.
is a little too circular... I believe you were sleepy
It is very difficult to put faith in axioms, IMO.
However, it has been some time since I read Nietzsche. What philosophical category do you think Nietzsche fits best? J7, you mentioned Sartre in a response.... do you think that Nietzsche is an Existentialist?

According to "The Bachelor" spoilers that have been leaked everywhere after Reality Steve spilled the beans, it is known who Juan Pablo Galavis picks at the end of the season. Hollywood Life reported Jan. 2 that "The Bachelor" winner for the 2014 season will come down to one of the final three women. The lucky finalists are Nikki Ferrell, Clare Crawley, and Andi Dorfman.
In "The Bachelor" 2014 spoilers revealed in the report that cited Reality Steve, Andi eliminates herself in St. Lucia after the overnight dates. This will leave Clare and Nikki as Juan Pablo's final two women.
So, who does Juan Pablo pick as "The Bachelor" winner for season 18? He picks the woman he wants to get to know better, but not necessarily marry yet. Since Brad Womack's infamous season several years back, Juan Pablo will be the first "Bachelor" not to "propose" to anyone. He chooses Nikki as the woman he wants to continue a relationship with. Though no Neil Lane sparkler was placed on her finger, she reportedly wants to have a relationship with Juan Pablo.
There has been no leaked information about how Juan Pablo and Nikki Ferrell have been doing since filming wrapped in November for the show. Over the course of numerous seasons prior, the rumored "Bachelor" winner would be out in public looking at wedding gowns or giving the tabloids something to write about. Maybe once the 2014 season gets underway more will be uncovered, but for now the only thing to go with is the speculation that Juan Pablo picks Nikki Ferrell as "The Bachelor" 2014 winner.
Be sure to watch "The Bachelor" 2014, season 18, Monday nights at 8 p.m., ET/PT on ABC starting Jan. 6.

Derick Dillard proposed to Jill Duggar on last night's episode of "19 Kids & Counting"--and what a beautiful proposal it was. Many people have rolled their eyes at the old-fashioned approach the Duggar family has to finding a spouse--courting--but after seeing last night's beautiful and heartfelt proposal, it would be hard not to believe that some hearts finally saw the reasoning behind taking it slow.
Everything in our lives goes fast, fast, fast these days, and we are always trying to make them go even faster. But, in the case of the engagement of Jill and Derick, it is easy to see that going slow has its advantages. And, of course, there is the simple fact that Derick himself is a gentleman, and wants to treat the woman he loves like the special lady she is to him--doesn't every woman want to be treated like that?
Holding hands is okay, now, whereas it was off-limits before. As the two walked into the Duggar household, Michelle Duggar said, "I think I'm noticing hands being held here!" And, it was just a sweet moment.
"I couldn't imagine my life without her," Derick said as both moms gushed over the match.
Of course, although the couple has taken the physical aspect of dating slow, the relationship has gone pretty quickly overall, going from Internet to engagement in about six months. But, everyone seems to believe that Derick is the one for Jill and Jill is the one for Derick, so there were nothing but happy tears and excitement after the announcement.
"I'm the most blessed guy in the whole world because I have the best girl in the whole world," Derick said. "Praise God."
And, bless them and good luck to them in the future; they certainly do seem meant-to-be and perfectly matched.
Meanwhile, of course, Jim Bob and Michelle still have Josie toddling around! It is amazing when you consider the span of ages between their children still at home--from preschool to pre-wedding! And, of course, Josh has already given them three grandchildren. It is no wonder this show has been so popular with viewers over the years; how many viewers could possibly experience anything even close to similar to what the Duggars have? Not many (although there are probably a few out there)!
"19 Kids & Counting" airs on TLC on Tuesday nights at 9/8c.

Hunter Harrison, the former railroad boss that an activist investor wants installed as chief executive of Canadian Pacific Railway (CP-T), said on Monday he would take costs in hand at CP but not head down a "slash and burn" path.
Harrison, a former CEO of Canadian National Railway (CNR-T), also said he would "declare war on bureaucracy" at CP within the first 100 days if he took the top job at Canada's second biggest railroad.
He made the comments at a town hall-style meeting of about 300 investors, lawyers and media members, where investor William Ackman was pitching Harrison and five replacement board members as a remedy for CP's lagging efficiency.
Ackman's Pershing Square Capital Management holds a 14.2-percent stake in the railway, and is pushing for dramatic improvements in CP's productivity, but he said at the meeting he had no plans to take over the company.
The New York hedge fund's board nominees include Ackman and his partner Paul Hilal, management consultant Gary Colter, energy industry executive Rebecca MacDonald and former Onex Corp. executive Anthony Melman.
Ackman, 45, said he was not claiming the current board was incompetent, otherwise he would have been trying to remove all 15 members.
"These are smart people ... who unfortunately have not been able to get the job done," he said.
Ackman believes Harrison, 67, who turned Canadian National into one of North America's top-performing railroads, can repeat the trick with CP.
Canadian Pacific has publicly backed CEO Fred Green and his plans to improve the operating ratio to 70-72 percent in 2014. It will hold its annual meeting and board vote on May 17 in Calgary, Alberta.
Lower ratios, which measure what percentage of revenue is needed to run a railway, indicate more efficient and generally more profitable carriers. CP's operating ratio, at 81.3 percent, is the weakest of North America's six big railroads.
Best-in-class CN boasts a ratio of just 63.5 percent. Much of its efficiency gains came during Harrison's tenure, first as chief of operations and then as CEO. He retired in 2009.

Zoloft Class Action Lawsuit
In recent years, several drug safety warnings have been issued for popular SSRI antidepressant drugs like Zoloft linking these medications to serious birth defects in infants of mothers who took them during pregnancy.
These birth defects can include lung defects, neural tube defects of the brain and spine, heart defects, skull deformities, abdominal defects, club foot and cleft palates. Many families whose children have suffered these side effects are seeking information about a Zoloft Class Action Lawsuit.
Since the makers of Zoloft and other SSRI antidepressant drugs failed to warn patients and expectant mothers of the dangers of taking these drugs during pregnancy, they face liability for the birth defects and damages caused to children and families.
Based on the hundreds of millions of patients who have taken Zoloft, experts fear the potential that millions of children could have been injured by this drug. While many would expect a Zoloft Class Action Lawsuit for these injuries, claims for these birth defects are actually being handled on an individual basis.
Lawyers are currently filing individual lawsuits on behalf of those who have suffered from Zoloft birth injuries. These claims can provide substantial assistance to children and families trying to cope with and recover from a serious birth injury.
If you took Zoloft during pregnancy and have given birth to a child with birth defects, it is important that you speak with a qualified lawyer to find out how a claim for your child's condition may help much more than a Zoloft Class Action Lawsuit.
An individual claim for the damages suffered by your child and family from Zoloft birth defects is actually more equitable than what you would likely recover in a class action lawsuit.
In a class action lawsuit, injured parties are grouped together and made to share in one overall award. They are also usually prohibited from presenting evidence to a jury on their specific injury and allowed much less input and control over their case.
In an individual lawsuit, such as with a claim for Zoloft birth defects, a family can present their case to a jury in much more detail using the skill of an experienced attorney. This can result in a ruling on your case based on its own merits without the distraction of other similar lawsuits, and often a larger verdict or settlement.
Lawyers with the Zoloft Litigation Group have filed thousands of lawsuits for SSRI drug birth defects and recovered verdicts and settlements in excess of $1 million for their clients. They are available to discuss your legal options today.
Drug injury lawsuits, such as those for Zoloft birth defects, are complex, expensive and time consuming legal matters that require substantial legal experience, investigation into medical records, testimony by researchers and physicians and the resources to fight large drug companies.
Before choosing a lawyer to represent you, make sure they have experience fighting large drug companies and have the resources necessary to finish your case.
ZoloftCenter.com works with only the top drug injury attorneys in the country to make sure your case is handled properly and you recover quickly.
Contact us today to learn more about your legal options. We are available 24 hours a day to answer questions and provide a confidential evaluation of your case.

Jennifer Park is tied for the lead after the first day at the Alamo Invitational.
Oct. 28, 2012
SAN ANTONIO, Texas (SMU) - Jennifer Park tallied five birdies on the back nine to finish at five-under par, tying her for first after the first round at the Alamo Invitational hosted by UTSA at the Briggs Ranch Golf Course on Sunday.
SMU finished the day second on the team leaderboard, seven shots behind Oklahoma. Felicia Espericueta was the second-best Mustang on Sunday, posting an even par round.
"We had a good day out there today," Head Coach Jeanne Sutherland said. "Jennifer Park had a great day. She had five birdies in a row on the back nine which was exciting for her. Everybody else fought hard today. I thought our back nine was great."
The Mustangs will look to continue closing in on the leaders on Monday. Fans can follow along with the action on the links with GolfStat.
