FORT LEWIS, Wash. - Civic and business leaders from the City of Lakewood got first-time, firsthand looks at Fort Lewis Soldiers and their equipment last week.
Colonel John Norris welcomed a 22-person delegation, led by Mayor Douglas Richardson, of the 4th Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division's Community Connections city to his headquarters to kick off a special military orientation. Most said they had never worn flak vests or ridden in Stryker vehicles.
"This is your time," Norris, the brigade commander, told them at the outset of the April 28 program. "This is your chance to be with Stryker brigade Soldiers. This is one small portion of a representative force of the entire Fort Lewis."
"It's pretty cool," Ernie Schilter, Tacoma Nissan Suburu general sales manager, said of the Raider Brigade's outreach to the community. "I'm excited to see the Stryker vehicle."
Schilter said though it was his first time wearing military safety equipment and first real contact with Soldiers in their environment, he thoroughly enjoyed the day.
"One of our employees' wife was deployed last summer," Schilter said. "She was with the MPs. We hosted a big barbecue for the family. That was my first experience with the military."
Norris briefed the Lakewood leaders on the history of his Stryker organization, from its stand-up as 2nd Armored Cavalry Regiment at Fort Polk, La., to its reflagging at Fort Lewis and its deployment in support of the surge operations of 2007. The brigade arrived to join the fighting in some of the hottest areas of Iraq, he said, including Baqubah. Their arrival and part in immediate combat operations were key factors in the success of the surge that helped turn coalition fortunes in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
"(Success) wasn't without a price," Norris said. "You can look at our memorial wall behind you to see the Soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice. Later on in July we'll dedicate the memorial on this post and you all are invited to that, as well."
Norris, who commanded a Stryker battalion under the 172nd Infantry brigade in Iraq, gave the visitors an experience-based testimonial of the superiority of Stryker vehicles and the effectiveness of the Soldiers they carry into battle.
"There is not one place a Stryker brigade Soldier would not go," Norris said. "When there is gunfire, when there are explosions and sounds of fighting, that's where you'll find Strykers - in the thick of it."
A bus transported the Lakewood delegation to Range 87, where they talked to Soldiers, saw equipment demonstrations, took their first rides on Stryker vehicles and watched 4th Bde., 2nd Inf. Div. Soldiers fire and maneuver against an objective.
The brigade's organic field artillery unit, 2nd Battalion, 12th Field Artillery Regiment, fired its newest guns, the M-777 155 mm howitzers, after the delegation learned about their mobility and agility on the battlefield.
"It is important that we as citizens understand what it is we are paying for," said Richardson, himself a retired brigadier general, "making sure that we have the finest equipment available so that our Soldiers come back safely."
Both the mayor and brigade commander stressed the importance of keeping the community connection strong with its Soldiers, many of whom live in Lakewood.
"These are your Soldiers, not mine," Norris said. "Seventy percent of our Soldiers live out in the community. They represent you when they go downrange."

Skill Level Beginner
Email attachments can create all types of problems from simply forgetting to add the attachment to sending the wrong attachment, to sending it in a format the reader can't open. Although these situations are aggravating, they can usually be remedied. Much more serious issues are sending a large attachment that could shut down the receiver's server, or fill the inbox, causing subsequent emails to bounce. Also, many computer viruses that completely wipe out all the files on a company's hard drive are sent through email attachments.
So let's look at what you can do to send and receive efficient and safe attachments. Oops, I forgot the attachment in my previous email or, guess it would help if you actually had the attachment. Ever have to send one of those embarrassing messages? I certainly have. You hit Send, and the second you let go of the Send button you realize you forgot the attachment. Since the entire point of the email is to send the attachment, you might try to get into the habit of adding the attachment before composing the message. Of even more help are programs, G-Mail for example, that will look for words such as attachment, and will alert you that you may not have attached anything after you hit Send, but before the message is actually released.
Ever sent the incorrect attachment? To keep this from happening, after you attach the file, open it from the email before you send it to double check that it is the file you intended to send. If a file has been edited and the file names aren't clear, the incorrect version may get incorrectly attached if each version wasn't clearly named. Another concern is being sure the recipient can view the attached file. If you aren't certain what types of files your recipient can view, consider using plain text. Avoid bold and underlines and fancy formatting for example.
These may look fine on your computer, but the message may look strange to the reader or completely unreadable. If you want to preserve all the formatting and graphics, you might convert it to a PDF file. Most recipients can open PDF files because they are not operating systems or software specific. Free software is available for the conversion. Next, consider the size of attachment and the number of attachments. Large attachments or multiple attachments, which can add up very quickly, could shut down the recipient server.
Be aware that the receiver system may have a limit to what can be received. Most email applications can send and receive attachments up to 1 megabyte. If you need to send a larger file or multiple files, you could compress it or zip it. Those actions, however, come with their own set of issues. For example, many mobile devices can't open ZIP files. Another possibility is to consider if the information you want to attach is available on a web page. If so, you could include that link in your email message, rather than sending a large attachment.
What if you are the recipient of an attachment? All recipients should be wary of unsolicited attachments, even those that look like they are from a trusted source. Viruses can duplicate return addresses making the message look legitimate. If possible, check with a person who supposedly sent it to make sure that it is legit. If you have to open an attachment before you can verify the source, be sure your company software is up to date. Many systems automatically update patches. Or you might also check to see if your email program will allow you to disable the automatically download attachment feature.
If so, turn it off. So, before you attach that next file, or open an attachment you've been sent, consider these important issues. Is the correct file actually attached? Will the format be readable? Can the file be opened? And is it virus free? Taking precautions before sending or opening that next email attachment is well worth the extra effort.

When you ask someone what he does for a living and he answers – "I do business development", what does that actually mean?
Even when people who are actively trying to serve a function at a company that tries to improve business development get asked what do they do, the answers might sound like "business development is sales" or "business development is marketing" but it's not the correct answer.
What it actually is, is "Business development is the creation of a long term value for an organization from customers, markets and relationships." In other words, business development has a role to make strategic opportunities for your company and set it on the right path.
Business development is not sales, but it certainly doesn't mean that knowledge of sales won't help business developer to make better plans. It is not uncommon for business developers to have marketing and sales, strategy, finance and operations backgrounds. In this article we will go over a few tips for successful business development and startup, so stick around and learn something you might not already know.
Among other things, the most important one is to hire the right person. Depending on the current stage of your company you may need different people for this job. Even someone who has deep industry knowledge and strong connections ready to do the deals may be disastrous for your company's lifecycle if it's too early for those kinds of plans.
The earliest stage of the company is scouting, and at this point business development should represent identification of various routes to market, points of leverage and providing the internal team early market feedback.
The next phase is testing and at this point business development should close a few deals to test assumptions and provide measurable input before scaling the business. All this testing should determine where to scale based on the company's strength and vision. After gathering all the needed data from testing and determing a path for achieving your goals, next thing is scaling. At this stage your business should be able to start recreating deals and putting a support structure in place.
A lot of times when starting a business people find themselves conflicted whether they should focus on quality or quantity and the answer isn't always the easiest. Caring deeply about your product and making it the best way you can will increase its cost and the market isn't prone too much to pay for a promise of increased commitment even if they find your product useful, which makes for a higher likelihood of failure. On the other hand a quantitative value dramatically increases the success chance.
When making the deals, be sure to make them carefully. Remember that there is a difference between doing deals and doing the right deals. Many companies made the wrong deals that weigh them down in the future which they ended up regretting deeply, so make sure to check all your options and make sure that the one you chose is actually the best one.Read More

Project Healthy Living
Free and low cost health screenings.
Mitch: No idea why this surprises anyone. That is except for the sheeple who have fallen for the false claims by the liberal media that Trump is racist. Thing is, you have to realize that Trump is of all things, a businessman. One common practice is when seek to achieve something, you start at one end and compromise from there. For instance, if your going to buy a house. You aim at a low number and the seller aims at a high one. Trump wants to build the wall for basically nothing and Mexico doesn't want to pay for it either. It seams like Trump is trying to find some point between them. What I find funny is how the Pope criticizes Trump for his plans of a wall when Vatican City, has a wall around it. How hypocritical.

Healthy eating is not so much about being picky with the food that you eat as finding a way to gradually introduce wholesome food to your diet. Without a doubt, this is one of the main notions why people dread swapping to a completely healthy diet. They immediately think that they'd have to sacrifice the not-so-healthy foods that they can't go without. Well, this really isn't the case with "healthy" eating, however unbelievable it sounds. Find time to read these helpful pointers and you'll see that minding your healthy eating shouldn't be all about deprivation and calorie calculations, but rather about boosting your overall wellness.
1.) Be aware of your food intake, not your nutrition intake.
Some health experts suggest minding any nutrition deficiency you may have and addressing it by eating more food that contains the said nutrient, etc. The problem with this kind of method is that it doesn't provide order in your dietary pattern. The right attitude to adapt then is to mind the types of food that you take in. The key lies in simply going for wholesome foods that are known to be nutritious, besides being as natural as possible. Natural in the sense that it's not processed, but doesn't necessarily have to be completely organic as well.
2.) Don't completely regulate, learn to moderate.
Research conducted on the subject has proven that completely skimming comfort food only ever leads to frustration, which then leads to messing your intended healthy diet plan. With good moderation, you would certainly be able to drastically the amount of junk food that you eat to the point that you'll have fewer cravings for them in the future. By giving in to your cravings, you are actually choosing to make yourself happy.
Happiness brings about a great boost in your mood, allowing you to make smarter food choices afterward and greater resolve to resist further junk food temptation. With time, your cravings would be virtually non-existent and you will learn to look at junk food as nothing more than empty indulgences. That's as simple as it gets.
3.) Cut back on sugar, if you can't completely remove it that is.
We are well aware of the fact that sugar is bad for us yet it's the taste of it that we simply can't get enough of. Even if it tastes like heaven, though, especially for most of us who have a sweet tooth, it simply has to be crossed out from our diets completely. Again, the key to avoiding sugar lies in gradually reducing the intake of it. Don't drink sugary drinks, and reduce the sugar that commonly makes up your regular diet. Eat fruits or go for naturally prepared peanut butter to satisfy your sweet tooth. Lastly, be extra careful of the sugar in foods that you order when eating out.
4.) Make sure to get a heady mix of fruits and vegetables of different colors.
Don't just settle for one kind of fruit or vegetable, go for anything that it's available to you! From greens like spinach, broccoli, kale, avocado, and green apples to reds like bell pepper, radishes, tomatoes, and red grapes, it's all about introducing a rainbow of fruits and vegetables to your diet. Keep in mind that the deeper the color of the fruit and vegetable is, the more it's packed with essential nutrients. Also, eating vegetables that are naturally sweet is also very effective way to handle the demands of your sweet tooth. Good examples of these are corn and sweet potatoes.
5.) Fiber is one nutrient that you should never go without.
Dietary fiber goes a long way in maintaining the way your body should function. The fact that stocking up on fiber shields you from chronic diseases like high blood pressure and diabetes is proof enough of this. Of course, you can only ever find loads of fiber from whole grain food as well as other natural, unprocessed food. Fiber helps stimulate that feeling of fullness, allowing you to stave off hunger and unhealthy snacking for optimum hours.
As you can see, the key to consistent healthy eating lies in the gradual introduction of healthier alternatives to your diet. It's never a smart move to immediately go all the way when it comes to eating healthy. What's good about small changes over time is that it almost always ends up being a long-term activity. Like any habit, you get used to it, making it hard for you to depart from it as time goes by.

Units were refurbished.
Order placed before noon pacific time Dec 13 [Company claims to be in CA, so should easily be able to ship today.]
After a few back and forth issues, the order was verified and in "processing" by 2.00p 12/13
Late on the 17th, I inquired about shipping.
Was told "We processed your order and will be ship tomorrow" Nikki [Sales mgr]
"Ugh!" I figured it would ship the 13 [Thurs], perhaps the 14[Fri]! But not even Monday the 17th!
When I didn't get tracking numbers on the 18, I inquired on the 19th.
But now the story has changed."both units have been processed . tracking number will available after 24
hours." Nikki again [Sales mgr]
What!? I call. I'm given the sob story. They were shipping from another location. I can't find the tracking numbers. They had to ship together. [Like shipping together is for my benefit!]
But I don't get tracking numbers on the 20th either.
I inquire on the 21st and get ONE tracking number.
After the package hits UPS, you can see the weight isn't reasonable for two UPS's - but only one.
Dec 24, I inquire after the second UPS.
Oh, and I find out it didn't ship until today.
Well, actually it hasn't even really shipped yet - there's a UPS label for it, but it's certainly not on the truck.
So, 5 business days to ship one unit, and 8 business days to even print the label for the second unit.
Never mind they've been holding my money for the last 10 days.
The company lies their pants off. They don't deliver what they promise and make excuses. Beware.
[And I don't even have the product yet. I'm worried about what a nightmare that might be.]

She got a print-out that neither she or her account could decipher.
They have no customer service. The bank manager is rude and condescending. She said, "You shouldn't write checks when you don't have any money in your checking account," and that she didn't have time to keep up with all of this.
She has done this to other businesses in town but they changed banks.

Hilltop Virtual Academy
Empowering parents to raise
Hello to all as we start the 2015-2016 school year!
I am very proud to serve as your Superintendent as this is a great school with great students, great staff, great parents and great communities. It takes all of us working TOGETHER to make great things happen.
Starting my third year here at Hilltop as Superintendent, I am so proud of what we have accomplished. We have made tremendous in-roads in the area of technology and we continue to move forward in an area that allows our students to be competitive with all of their fellow peers and society as a whole. Regardless of how we may personally feel towards technology, it is here and it is only going to get more and more in-depth as new means of communication change world-wide. Each student in grades 7-12 have their own Chromebook and we are now moving Chromebook down to grades 5 & 6 as this will keep our Technology Plan current and progressing as we are able to a advance.
In the area of curriculum, I feel we are getting on the same page, at all levels, and providing our students with a consistent plan of learning. We have added new textbooks, eBooks, etc. to go along with our technology and it is so neat to see what our young people are able to do with all of this knowledge. Every student has been able to take the necessary tests on-line and that is what the State of Ohio is hoping for all schools to be able to do.
We have made a commitment to keep our new facilities clean and take care of the necessary areas as they arise. We have a beautiful complex and our plan is to keep it that way!
The arts and athletics have made big strides as we have purchased new band uniforms and we have made a sincere effort to spruce up and improve the athletic facilities we have for our young students. This year we are looking to bring on an Archery program for students in grades 4-12. This will consist of training in physical education classes and then we are hopeful to expand to make this a Club event where our students can compete against other schools that have this program in the area. Over-all, our student numbers are improving and it is so neat to see that Hilltop PRIDE and CLASS in our school and with our students.
Community is very important to our school and we have added to the Military Board recognition for our current military personnel and added the Distinguished Alumni Hall of Fame this past May 2015 with three individuals being inducted into the initial class. We continue to add and bring enhancements to our school that tells others what we are all about.
I could continue on and on but those that know me know that I am so, so very PROUD of what we have accomplished here to date and what we plan to accomplish in the future as our job is not done. Not one person can make things happen, it takes a TEAM and a TEAM is what we have here in Cadet Country.
I welcome any thoughts or ideas that you may have to help us improve our school. Please feel free to contact me at: 419.924.2365 Ext. 2322 or e-mail me at: firstname.lastname@example.com.

People get self-conscious about the way they look, but here's the thing you gotta do: change the perspective. Think about it. Whenever I feel bad about the way I look, I consider that, on a daily basis, all I ate is fried meat, about half a case of beer and a carton of cigarettes. So, then, I should look a lot worse.

Chopper Command is a video game by Activision released for the Atari 2600 in June 1982. It was designed and programmed by Bob Whitehead.[1]
In Chopper Command the player controls a military helicopter in a desert scenario protecting a convoy of trucks. The goal is to destroy all enemy fighter jets and helicopters that attack the player's helicopter and the friendly trucks traveling below, ending the current wave. The game ends when the player loses all of his or her lives or reaches 999,999 points. A radar, called a Long Range Scanner in the instruction manual,[1] shows all enemies, including those not visible on the main screen.
A player who achieved 10,000 points could send in a photo of the TV screen and receive a "Chopper Commandos" patch.[2]
Chopper Command can be found on the Activision Anthology for Game Boy Advance. Chopper Command was made available on Microsoft's Game Room service for Xbox 360 and Microsoft Windows in June 2010.
Chopper Command won "Best Action Video Game" at the 4th annual Arkie Awards.[3]:108

For four years, Lexus sold its LS only as a hybrid, but with the new V8-engined LS 460 set to take 80 per cent of sales, where does that leave the petrol-electric LS 600h flagship?
Lexus is clearly pitching this luxury saloon at the top of the range. It costs around £30,000 more than the LS 460, at £99,495.
It's no longer the only petrol-electric car in this class, as BMW now offers its ActiveHybrid 7 – which is also about £30,000 less in long-wheelbase form. But the Lexus has the edge for kit, with electrically reclining rear massage seats that are heated and cooled, plus a climate control system that uses infra-red sensors to monitor the temperature of passengers' faces and adjusts accordingly.
Trouble is, the LS 600h falls behind again on performance. Its hybrid drivetrain delivers 439bhp to take the car from 0-62mph in 6.1 seconds, but that's almost half a second down on the BMW. The Lexus also trails on efficiency, returning 32.8mpg and emitting 199g/km to the ActiveHybrid 7's 41.5mpg and 158g/km.
Key to the LS 600h's appeal are its near-silent progress and incredible ride comfort. Yet it's difficult to drive the car using the electric motor alone, so it's not as relaxing or quiet as it could be.
And while Lexus claims to have made the LS better to drive, the steering is still too light and there's lots of lean in bends. Fiddling with the driving modes, including Sport and Sport +, doesn't help much.
Lexus expects most buyers to travel in the back of this LWB-only model, and it's very comfortable. But rivals are just as cosseting – plus cheaper and more efficient.

Coming to life
There are several options for running a Linux system on the BeagleBoard. The most common is the Angstrom distribution, alternatives include an Android port by the Embinux company, a custom Ubuntu, and maybe more I don't even know of. I'll go with Angstrom for now, others distributions will have to wait.
The BeagleBoard has a card reader slot that can read SD and SDHC cards, so I am getting an 8GB SDHC card to store the Linux system. Conveniently, you can just prepare the flash card with your Linux PC – provided you have a working card reader.
Installing Angstrom is not a big deal; the only challenge is to partition the SD card appropriately. I just followed the tutorial on http://code.google.com/p/beagleboard/wiki/LinuxBootDiskFormat and everything worked out. According to the tutorial, you need to set some low-level parameters you might know from BIOS settings for your hard drive, such as cylinders and read/write heads (which don't really exist with a flash card). One FAT partition is for booting the system, another Ext3 partition will contain the Linux system.
When you are done partitioning, you need to copy the boot files into the FAT partition and un-tar Angstrom to the Linux filesystem. The web page http://code.google.com/p/beagleboard/wiki/HowToGetAngstromRunning lists the actual commands. I did not need to update the BeagleBoard firmware as the page proposes because it was already up to date on my hardware. So after unpacking the files, you just need to configure the boot loader.
Putting the SD card into the slot on the BeagleBoard and plugging the (USB) power in will immediately show the bootloader screen, followed by the well-known Linux boot messages. If you have a monitor attached to the board via an HDMI/DVI cable, you will see a graphical boot screen, too. Connecting mouse and keyboard via a USB hub will make the BeagleBoard an almost fully functional graphical terminal – you just don't have a network connection.

Seems like Kuyt is itching to go to any Premiership team that comes for him. Which is a pity since Newcastle might do another Owen and price us out.But I guess if Liverpool make another bid for him at the same time as Newcastle, he would choose us. But if he goes to Tyneside, the Geordies would have a dream pairing of Owen and Kuyt, which would make them dangerous. Just hope that we can get him, he is my number one choice.
I've just read he wants to come to us and is only talking about Liverpool. Think given the choice it's us no doubt.

Could someone direct me as to how I can remove the sharing buttons from the excerpt? My client wants them to remain on the posts, just not also in the sidebar where the widget sits.
I've had a look in the plugin's php file, and the extract from the post seems to get generated by a function called the_excerpt, but I can't see that function anywhere.
Also, I can't find the 'Continue reading...' text anywhere, and I need to translate it. Any pointers most welcome.
Many thanks.
ETA: Website is http://verenadaldini-art.com, although I'm going to have to switch off the widget until I can get it fixed.

humorist and author
"Laugh out loud from start to finish"
I was sitting behind my husband on a long motorcycle ride and we were each listening to our own thing thru our helmets. He was listening to The Economist, and I was listening to Julia Sweeney. Guess who kept laughing out loud the whole way home!
"So Touching and Funny"
Julia Sweeney is an amazing storyteller and comedian. She can take you on a journey through some big issues and make you laugh along the way. The beautiful thing is that the laughs are real, but they do not take anything away from the gravity of the events in the story. She's an amazing talent.
In this particular piece of work Julia takes us through the trials of her brother dying of cancer, being diagnosed with cancer herself, and having her parents come to live with her. It's both touching and hilarious in a way that I don't think many other artists could create.
"Cancer why me?"
She is taking a not so funny Life experience, and turning it into a laughable thing.
no sorry...
I share some of this experience. If it is not one thing It is another, and could empathize..It seems when trouble comes it really multiplies!
"Ok, never great"
It was reasonably entertaining, but never really, really sad or really, really funny. I don't regret buying it, but after listening to it, I decided I did not need to listen to her other books.
amateur ethnomusicologist
"Spend yer money on this!"
Julia Sweeney is VERY funny, and this remembrance of her life is mostly funny. When it isn't funny, it's touching. We were on a long trip as a family & the teenagers & the adults all really enjoyed it. The only reason this doesn't get 5 stars is that it isn't long enough! So don't spend a whole credit, but DO spend yer money on this.
"Never look at religion the same again."
Julia goes through her life and what led to her decision to laugh at God. My advice is if your not ready to see the wizard behind the curtain then stay away. If you want a look at life differently then this is for you.
"Terrible Quality Recording-but darkly funny"
There are long empty spaces on this recording. The speaker is not pausing, there are at least half a dozen blank spots on the recording, no background sound. Weird. The the story is pretty good and very funny at times if you like dark humor.
My preference for a good story is something totally unusual and not run of the mill stuff. Give me something I haven't heard before.
"Feeling good about being down..."
This is a bit more sober than Letting Go of God, but still keeps an up lift through it all. I see the lesson in keeping one's humor in the dull light of hell on earth. Life is tough enough, keep up the wit and sly grins, Julia. We all should.
loved it; absolutely loved it
"Highly authentic and enterntaining"
I love the way she tells the story, she makes you laugh at the same time she shares her life experiences and how she overcame what she had to go through and go on with her life. Truly enjoyable.

Nicholls State basketball preview boxes
Published: Friday, March 5, 2010 at 8:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 5, 2010 at 8:38 p.m.
2 today at Stopher Gym in Thibodaux (Southland Conference game)
Records: Lamar (14-17 overall, 5-10 in SLC); Nicholls (10-18, 6-9).
Coaches: Lamar — Steve Roccaforte (fourth season); Nicholls — J.P. Piper (sixth season).
Last meeting: 2009 — Nicholls won, 50-36, in Beaumont, Texas (Lamar leads all-time series, 18-4).

Notes: It's the regular-season finale for both teams ... A win would give the Colonels the eighth and final SLC tournament berth, while a loss would end their season ... By winning on Wednesday, the Colonels have had three straight seasons of winning at least 10 games for the first time since 1998-2001 ... Lamar has lost six-straight games, but can clinch the final SLC tournament by beating Nicholls and Southeastern Louisiana beating Northwestern State ... Nabors leads the SLC in rebounding per game.

Did you have one of those moms growing up that went to the grocery store with a coupon book that was thicker than War and Peace? Did you ever get tired of hearing, "Go pick out a Kellogg's cereal," when all you wanted was some Cocoa Pebbles?
Well, playing the waiver wire is a lot like your mom stashing those coupons. You know what you're getting is on discount and you know there's a chance you may not be able to pick out what you want. It's bargain-hunting.
But in the end, your family saved some serious cash with all those coupons, and if you take the time to play the waiver wire right you might just earn an extra win or two.
Here are a few coupons—er, fantasy adds—that you should be focused on this week. Thanks, mom.
All stats for standard-scoring leagues. All availability stats via ESPN leagues.
EJ Manuel, QB, Buffalo Bills
Availability: Owned in 13.1 percent of leagues.
Key Stat: Averaging 16.3 fantasy points per week.
Analysis: Don't look now, but EJ Manuel has turned himself into a legitimate QB2 or even a possible starter in two-QB leagues.
What's even more intriguing about Manuel is that he has just 76 rushing yards and no scores on the ground to start the season. Some people might see that as a negative, but given his athleticism I think it means he has room to grow as a fantasy commodity. His completion percentage (59.3) won't earn him plaudits, but having just one interception after three games proves he's at least protecting the rock.
If you aren't confident in your QB2, go get this guy immediately.
Jason Snelling, RB, Atlanta Falcons
Availability: Owned in 15.4 percent of leagues.
Key Stat: 10 receptions for 116 yards and a touchdown this season.
Analysis: With Steven Jackson likely out at least one more week, Snelling remains a very intriguing fantasy commodity. He has 27 fantasy points the past two weeks, and has been utilized as a dangerous weapon on third downs. Jacquizz Rodgers was utilized more on early downs (18 carries to Snelling's 11) but their total touches were close (20 for Rodgers, 15 for Snelling).
Rodgers is widely owned, but Snelling looks like the better play against the New England Patriots. He certainly has been the better fantasy player since Jackson went down.
Santonio Holmes, WR, New York Jets
Availability: Owned in 7.6 percent of leagues.
Key Stat: 16 total targets the past two weeks, most on the Jets.
Analysis: I really like the fact that Geno Smith is regularly targeting Holmes in this offense, making his combined eight receptions for 205 yards and a touchdown over the past two weeks somewhat sustainable. No, he won't have many—if any—21-point fantasy weeks like he posted in Week 3, but Holmes is still a very good receiver and has emerged as Smith's top target.
Consider him a WR3 moving forward.
Heath Miller, TE, Pittsburgh Steelers
Availability: Owned in 6.4 percent of leagues.
Key Stat: 71 receptions for 816 yards and eight touchdowns a season ago.
Analysis: If you are in the market for a TE2, Miller is the man to add this week—other than Jordan Cameron, who amazingly is available in 25.2 percent of leagues, though not for long. Antonio Brown finally made his presence felt on Sunday night, but it was obvious in the first two games that Ben Roethlisberger missed his safety valve over the middle in Miller.
He's not a guy you should be starting just yet, but for the bye weeks or a tough matchup for your TE1, you'll be glad you have Miller at your disposal.
Kansas City Chiefs, D/ST
Availability: Owned in 40.1 percent of leagues
Key Stat: The Chiefs' next opponent, the New York Giants, are allowing 20.0 fantasy points to opposing defenses per week.
Analysis: The Chiefs' defense has been excellent for fantasy owners this season, averaging 17.0 fantasy points per week. Now they face a Giants offense that has given up 11 sacks, 13 turnovers and three defensive touchdowns.
Yeah, it's been that ugly.
There is always the danger that Eli Manning could get hot and completely torch Kansas City through the air, but it's just as likely the offense will self-destruct, much to the delight of Chiefs owners.
Hit me up on Twitter—I'll answer your fantasy lineup questions, make ill-fated NFL predictions and tweet cheesy jokes. It's a Twitter tailgate, minus the parking fees.

Legislate now, or be damned
Published 18/11/2012 | 05:00
Vincent Browne put it very crudely – and correctly – speaking on his own programme on TV3 last Thursday night. "Nobody is pro-abortion," he said. There are many things about which nobody is "pro" which take place, within the confines of the law, in our society every day. Out of necessity. Of course, nobody is "pro" abortion. But in a civilised society, nobody should have the right to deny half the population the right to make a decision, always agonising , always in extremis, always in an area of imperfect judgement, which they consider absolutely necessary.
In five short days, parliament and people have been convulsed by the abortion issue. And once more, as in 1982 and 1992, we have the spectacle of men, old and young, dancing on the head of a fallopian tube. Is legislating for the X Case opening the door to abortion on demand? Is legislating for the X Case enough – is it the doctors' right to choose by any other name? And while legislators might like it, is this a fair choice to put on doctors?
In 1986, speaking ahead of the ill-fated divorce referendum, one of the last of the Fine Gael public intellectuals, John Kelly, engaged in a crie de couer over a government that ''should even think of ... indulging in a year-long cat-fight about divorce''. Nothing epitomises the endemic adolescence of an Irish political system, which seems resolute only in a collective refusal to grow up, more than the relevance of Kelly's analysis to the consequences of the tragic death of Savita Halappanavar. It is, hopefully, still not too late for this debilitated State to avoid another dispiriting cat-fight over our ongoing inability to deal in a mature fashion with such 'moral issues'.
For this to be avoided, we must firstly not lose sight of the tragic fact that a young woman on the cusp of motherhood is dead. Out of respect, if that concept actually exists within our elites, an account must be rendered to her family and the citizens as to how this happened. It would be no bad thing if the rights to due process of the medical staff involved were respected too. And far more swiftly than the current leisurely three-month time-frame. As has been tragically demonstrated, procrastination is a killer.
Any ongoing national discussion should also be conducted with a great deal more dignity and honesty than the brawling disputations of the past week. But, whilst the spectacle of the deceased Savita Halappanavar being used to advance competing ideological agendas represents an atrocious coarsening of national debate, decorum should not stop us from engaging with the political issues her death has unveiled. There are some who claim that we should keep politics out of this debate. These, however, are cunning fools who actually use such a device as cover to hide their own moral cowardice for abortion, dealing as it does with life or death issues of human rights, is the most political of issues.
Politics is also applicable to the current debacle because the Princess-Diana style public fury over the death of Savita Halappanavar it is yet another consequence of a systemic failure by Irish politicians to do their job. Just like the collapse of our banks, the endemic vices of cowardice, indolence and the desire to play to the gallery have created the avoidable perfect storm of an individual tragedy, a national convulsion and international humiliation.
Sadly, despite the straightforward honesty of James Reilly and Eamon Gilmore, the will-of-the-wisp responses of the Taoiseach, have raised concerns that the old politics of a nod, wink and the sly choice of the easiest road is still in the ascendant. If this Government is any different to its predecessors, Mr Kenny must move swiftly to provide certainty and legislate or be damned.

- Voice of An Angel by Maureen on 6/12/2013
This story begins as the Yoder family is burying their Grandmother. We then discover the secret of her hidden life. She gives part of that life as an inheritance to her Granddaughter Katrina.
Katrina just happens to take after her Mammi in many ways. She has the voice of an Angel, just as her Mammi had, only she didn't know. When her friend Bekka introduces her to a solution to earn money so that her Dad can had much needed surgery.
Bekka has been secretly...again a wayward Amish girl, watching American Star. Will this be the answer to Katrina's prayers? Can she use her talent to help her Dad? If she goes out into the English World, will she stay? If she wants to return, will the community accept her back?
What a dilemma Katrina has, can you imagine a young sheltered Amish Girl, arriving in the big city. Never having been in even an elevator before! We get to see it all through her eyes.
Enjoy this rather different Amish story, set in Ohio and Hollywood, I did!
I received this book through the Revell Blogger Tour, and was not required to give a positive review.

Another round of storms has wreaked havoc on residents of St. Joseph, Missouri and caused massive power outages.The storm was powerful enough to knock one camper trailer sideways. It happened at a home in St. Joseph. The family was home at the time but no one was hurt.
The St. Joseph Fire Department responded to more than a dozen calls during the storm. They say most of the damage was minor, involving wires and power lines on the road. Most of their calls were from the northern part of the city.
Binders Levee around Big Lake park is still holding strong. People in the area say Saturday's water levels of 24.8 feet have now dropped below 23 feet. Because of the river's rise Saturday a voluntary evacuation of the village was instated. State park officials also closed the camp grounds. They remain closed today. Big Lake's diner, which was open Saturday, has now been closed until later in the week.
Residents in Lake Contrary are keeping a watchful eye on the rising Missouri River and the lake. Now, they can only watch and pray that Mother Nature doesn't destroy their homes.
As the river rises, so do concerns of the levee breaking. People living in the area are asking sightseers to stay off the levees. They say people driving through the area will weaken the foundation and put their homes in dangers way.

Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet opens tonight at the Shelby County Community Theatre. It stars Kaitlin Erhard and Michael Sheehy in the title roles. The Sentinel-News asked Erhard and Sheehy to share more about their experiences and playing two such famous characters.
Juliet: Kaitlin Erhard
Age: 18
Shelby Countians have joined the rest of the state, as well as the entire country, in rallying to do what they can to help Haitian orphans.
Several church groups as well as other organizations have journeyed to Haiti after the country was devastated by a recent earthquake.
Mary Lou Madigan of Shelbyville said she was astonished and alarmed when her daughter, Lucy Madigan Armistead, called her to tell her she was in Haiti and had been there for a week.
ith more than six decades of love shining in his eyes, Everett Leslie Bailey smiled at his wife, Mary Frances, as they sat side by side at Amber Oaks Retirement Home.
When asked what quality they valued most in each other, they both came up with the same answer.
"He's so easy to get along with," she said. "We'll be married 65 years this March, and we've never had a really bad argument."
After regaining his seat on the Shelbyville City Council in the last election, Jon Swindler, who also served in 2004, has filed for re-election.
A lifetime Shelbyville resident, Swindler said the city needs to be ready to grow.
"I believe the city needs to be welcoming to any opportunity for job growth and do all it can to attract companies that provide good-paying jobs with clean industry," he said.
With the city in strong financial shape now, Swindler said it's important that it remain stable for the citizens.
Information was gathered from previous years of The Shelby Sentinel, The Shelby News and The Sentinel-News. You can reach the writer at email@example.com.
Two have candidates withdrawn from the race in the May primary election.
Bobby Andriot withdrew from the magisterial race in District 3, leaving incumbent magistrate Allen Ruble unchallenged until November.
Andriot said he had reconsidered running because business concerns at his restaurant, The Bell House, were paramount to him at this time, and he could not devote enough time to the venture.
Harold Thomas Bryant is a democratic candidate for magistrate for the 7th District.
Bryant, who resides on Olive Branch Road with his wife, Judith, is a retired Louisville factory worker, who still does some farming.
"I enjoy farming and gardening very much," he said.
