A poulterer wa* , harped with crneltv to forty eight live geese by plucking them of their feathers, and tho owner was charged with procuring the com mission of the offense. The proc, (slings were taken by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. A witness swore that "after the geese were plucked their skins turned a purple Volor, and they seemed to be in pain I hey walked almut with their ba< k* up. and shrank when touched." The practice waa shown by defendants to lie very prevalent, and the society asked for a nominal fine to put a slop to it. The defendants -aid it was the custom of the district to iduek the feathers every six weeks, ami if they w ere stop]md from doing so many pen pie would discontinue keeping geese, as much more money was realized by the sal,, of feathers titan bv the geese I he court imposed a Hue of eighteen shillings upon the defendants, and express, n1 the hone that it would In* a warning to other people.

The lengths for this spring are different from those of last year. and there i* a divergence also in the lilies of cutting. One of the most pronounced effects is the straight, double-breasted *ack coat w hich promises to l*e a fa-I von to with swell dressers. The materia! fur the coat is. as a rule, cheviot, in plum color, such as black, blue, electric gray, aud other quir t ahadea. The U|>els are wide and roll low, and may Ire facer! with silk or not, as the wearer elects. The coat is worn closed ; by three buttons. A double-breasted veal of the same material as the coat may be selected, I or*a single-breasted vest, or one of fancy material, single or double breasted, ac* cording to taste. The trousers are of medium width, and may have a military stripe of niik down th* seam if desired. There is w irle play for the ex-j ercise of individual taste in that regard. Another elegant design is the i straight-fmnt sack suit in striped i cheviot. There is no rule as to the exact pattern or color of the fabric, blue, , however, lieing in the lead. The fronts I of the coat are slightly rounded at the Iiottom. mid the la|>els are of medium fullness. A double row of stitching runs along the edges of the coat, aud the I Hit to ms of the sleeves are stitched to match. The i>ockct* are all of the patch order Tub trousers, owing to tin* lightness of the material, an* full.

The nill of the collar should not In* less than bv e inches,with full la|N*l* and a general appearance of freedom and ease. As to the bottom i-orners of the coat, or what would Ive the corners if not eat away, they should recede from an inch fmlow the lower button. All the pockets should have Haps, with the discretion of having the upper pocket made with a welt. Ivory buttons are considered the very projier form, and the edges should In* double-stitched, narrow. The vest is supposed to be notched and to close w itll five buttons. What manner of overcoat should " man wear this season ? The creators of fashion haven t l>een ho fastidious in thin respect aa in others, and, in a gen erat way, it mav In* said that the spring overcoat of last year is appropriate now. The fly-front oversock or Chesterfield is the common favorite. Soft worsteds are the correct material, and the length for the average man is from thirty-six to thirty-seven inches. There is one im|K>rtant change, however. As a matter of course the three-button cutaway will still be the popular garment, aud will lead all others this season, as for several in the past. For half dress and for general style, well-made appearance, they eau not Im* surpassed The favorite shade w ill In* blue gray, with either flat braided edge or uarrowr stitching.

Why MP4 Files Play Slow on a Computer? How to Solve it?
If you are facing problems like tearing, stuttering, slow or choppy playback in playing high definition movies and videos, particularly the mp4 format, then this article can provide a solution to it.
MP4 files contain video and audio data for computer playback. One of the most common video file types, "MP4" actually refers only to the file container - the data inside may be encoded with any one of several formats, such as H.264. Therefore, even while one MP4 may play fine on your computer, another may run slowly or stutter. In many cases, slowdown during video playback is caused by outdated video drivers or codecs, running a video too high-resolution for your computer's speed, or poorly optimized video files and video players.
Why MP4 Files Play Slow on a Computer?
Drivers and Codecs
Your computer utilizes several pieces of software to play back MP4 videos. The first is your graphics driver. This file tells your video hardware – either a discrete video card or the integrated graphics chip in your processor – how to handle every type of video program you run. An old version of the driver may have errors that lead to slow playback, so always keep the driver updated. Most video player software also relies on codecs. These files decode the compressed information inside the video file to play it back, and missing or outdated codecs can cause playback errors.
Alternate Programs
There are many types of video files, and not every video playback program handles each type perfectly. Different players use different systems to decode video – some don't even rely on codecs – so trying another player may solve slowdown. On Windows, Windows Media Player natively opens MP4 files, but if they play slowly, try downloading another player, such as VLC Media Player, Media Player Classic or Apple's QuickTime Player or iTunes.
Damaged Files
If only one particular MP4 plays slowly, it's likely that the file itself has errors. Video file errors can manifest in several ways, such as slowdown, skipping, stuttering or the inability to use the seek bar. If you downloaded the file from the Internet, try redownloading it in case the file was corrupted during download. If you were given the video file directly from the creator, ask them to test whether it works for them, and to render it again it if not.
Slow Computer Speed
If no other solutions alleviate slow playback, your computer may simply be incapable of playing the video in real-time. Video playback – especially HD video playback – uses a significant amount of processor power, so older computers may suffer from unavoidable lag. Check that no other processor-intensive tasks are running simultaneously, as these will degrade playback. Such tasks include computer games, virus scans and photo or video editing software.
Best Solution for solving MP4 slow plaback on a computer

Nice room. Clean and well situated. From this accommodation you are able to see just about anything on foot.
The main drawback of this room is that the street is quite noisy. At home I sleep with earplugs because I'm a very light sleeper when it comes to sound. With my earplugs I was able to sleep just fine and my girlfriend didn't seem to be bothered a lot by the noise but if you're a light sleeper when it comes to sound, bring earplugs and you're fine :)
Breakfast was basic but nice. The kitchen has everything you need to cook a nice meal if you feel like it.
We read some poor reviews about the neighbourhood before we went to Athens but we can't confirm those. We haven't seen any bad types or hookers around, although I must say that we were back at the room before 12 at night every day.
All in all I'd say it's basic and somewhat noisy but clean, well situated and the hosts are nice people. Considering the price compared to other accommodations I'd recommend to consider this one!
Hello Miglen,
It was great! Very close to Plaka where everything happens. The quality of the room was also perfect for us!
The staff was friendly, but it wasn't what I had imagined. To cold, area is not very beautiful, but for the price it is okay.
Great value for money. The rooms are small but will certainly satisfy your basic needs. The tiny breakfast is good to start going, but there also a small, good, cheap cafeteria downstairs. Although I had a room on the sixth floor, the traffic could be clearly heard all night long.
And one other important point: the neighbourghood there is pretty nasty: prostitutes, drug addicts. In a group, or at least when you know what not to do - all right, but I met two Taiwan girls, who where just terrified to walk after dark. Quite understandably. They missed, however, all bustling Athens night life.
Good place at 15min to walk to the monuments.
But the bedroom next to the street, that's why it was so noisy.
It's a nice appartement; clean and with everything you need. Just the street in front is a bit loud in the night, but still worth the price.
The host family, which lives a few floors downstairs, is very helpful and easy to reach. All in all a good stay.
We had a very nice stay at Miglens place! It is an old apartment, but there were everything we needed and it was very cheap. The hosts were simply the most helpfull and friendly people. The apartment lies only 15 minutes walk from acropolis, so if you need a cheap place close to the centre of Athens, Miglens place is perfect :)
Miglen picked us up at a shopping mall close to the apartment. He was very nice and helpful, explaining us everything we need to know for a couple of days in Athens. The apartment was clean and close to the old town (Acropolis etc.). It's not luxurious but everything you need if you are planning a city trip. We very much enjoyed our time in Athens and recommend the stay at Miglen's.
friendly host, central location , clean, quiet, recommended to friends.
Miglen is a nice person, will welcome you very well and will probably help you if needed. Booking process: super fast, internet works, the room was ready & cleaned, like the whole house. It is safe and close to the centre…. My only reservation will be : There is no A/C, only a fan, so i suspect it could be quite uncomfortable during very hot nights.

The rhetoric about the Redskins name change keeps getting hotter. The latest scalding take was offered by former Redskins kicker Mark Moseley, one of nine "alumni captains" who headline the team-funded Redskins Facts site.
"I'm telling you," Moseley recently told the AP's Joseph White, "somebody would have to drop a bomb on FedEx Field to get us to change."
In the same story, Joe Theismann offered a theory about why this issue — which first attracted widespread attention in 1972 — began heating up in January of 2013.
"Politicians," Theismann said. "It's an election year."
And now, a few other recent thoughts. Some of these are up to two months old, but I had been waiting to do a round-up type collection of many thoughts.
Michael Irvin
"For years growing up in Ft. Lauderdale, watching my dad, who loved the Cowboys, we watched Cowboys-Redskins games and I didn't know," Irvin said at a U.S. Conference of Mayors symposium on sports and racism. "I didn't know as a young man. I didn't know that it was offensive to them, to Native Americans. I didn't know. I didn't know….
"I want to have a conversation with somebody to get an understanding of it, because I still do not know," Irvin continued. "But if it offends somebody, then we should do something about it. If we understand that. That's the great part of it. And here's the best part: with the owner Daniel Snyder, I mean, I know they love making money. It could make a lot of money for them. Because everybody that has all those Redskins things, they've got to get the new ones. So you can really satisfy both sides in understanding that.
"And I get caught up with people all the time — the tradition of it, the tradition of it. And I appreciate tradition and everything. But moving forward is what's important, and moving forward together, I believe."
Calvin Hill
The former Cowboys and Redskins running back came out against the name during an interview with Florida Today. Excerpt:
"I actually took the time and looked it up in the dictionary to see what Webster said, and not only Webster but several of the other dictionaries as well and every definition I've seen defines it as says it is a negative term," Hill said. "It's the 'N' word except the 'N word' applies to African Americans and the term Redskins applies to Native Americans."
Hill, who collects Native American art, said he has spoken with many artists about the term and said they are offended by it.
"Why do we want to use terms that make people feel bad?" he said, adding that too much time and energy is being spent on the debate. "It's pretty simple. It seems to me to come up with some term that makes people feel good."
Keith Harper
Harper, the U.S. Representative to the United Nations Human Rights Council and a Cherokee Nation citizen, recently discussed the issue with Indian Country Today, which is published by the Oneida Indian Nation. His quote:
On a personal level, I find the term "redskins" to be disparaging. I think it should have no place and if I owned the team I would change the name. It's pretty clear cut to me – nobody would walk down the street and call me a redskin unless they were intentionally trying to insult me.
(Full disclosure: a representative of the Change the Mascot campaign forwarded me that story.)
Gene Simmons
Yeah, Gene Simmons. This came in an interview about him being a part-owner of an Arena Football League team. Here were his comments to the Wall Street Journal:
I understand if you're a sports fan and if you're white, you go "Hey, what's the problem? We have a long history." But if you're an Indian, think about it. White dudes don't have to worry about that stuff because [they] were always the majority in imperialist countries of the world. "Cracker" means nothing to white people. They had all the money and the power….
Whether or not it's bad for business or not, you've got to make the change. It was launched at a time when white people weren't sensitive to the idea that you're actually insulting an entire race of people.
Terry McAuliffe
The governor of Virginia again weighed in, if you hadn't heerd.
"Listen, I've continuously said it is not up to a governor to tell a private business what to do with their business," he said. "I'm about growing our economy, diversifying our economy. I'm not in the business of telling private businesses what to do.
"I want businesses here. We need to grow and diversify the economy. Voters elected me to get jobs. This team here is helping me get jobs."
Martin O'Malley
So did the governor of Maryland, but on the other side.
I was asked earlier today and answered that I do believe it is probably time for the Washington Redskins to change their team name.
— Martin O'Malley (@GovernorOMalley) August 5, 2014
We hope that in every generation we become more understanding of one another & more respectful of the dignity of every individual & culture. — Martin O'Malley (@GovernorOMalley) August 5, 2014
Pat Sajak
The Wheel of Fortune host (and Caps fan) had a go.
A nation's capital should not have a team with such an offensive nickname. Please, NHL, no more Ottawa Senators.
— Pat Sajak (@patsajak) August 7, 2014
Jeanie Buss
So did the executive vice president of the Lakers.
I decided NOT to draft any Washington players (apologies to them) on my #fantasyfootball team in deference to those offended by team name.
— Jeanie Buss (@JeanieBuss) August 11, 2014
Joey Browner
The former Vikings safety, member of the team's Ring of Honor and Native American talked about the issue with the Star-Tribune:
" 'Never' turns into a reality that it has to change," Browner said. "That's what's happening with our government system letting them know they're not going to stand for it anymore in the system. By saying that, [Snyder's] peers are putting pressure on him now….It is happening, and it's for the better. For him, I just pray for him. That's all I can do. Just pray for him."

The Fastest Ships in the Caribbean. Pt. 1
Anamaria glanced across at Jack under the moonlight, they'd just made their escape from Tortuga yet rather than setting course Jack had taken the wheel himself, and was steering them up alongside the coast under the shelter of the great cliffs. The sounds of Cannons, Gunfire and Screams coming from the previously joyous port. Then, with a mighty groan echoing from every component of the ship from the Mainsails to the ropes to the wooden deck beneath their feet the Pearl swung about, until she was facing directly at the mouth of Tortugas bay.
Under the darkness, Jacks tears couldn't be seen. The crys from the port haunted him, because of him Norrington was slaughtering the innocents of the port. Jack could hardly ever remember feeling this depressed, or guilty. "Drop the Anchor! Raise the Sails! We wait." and thats all he said on the matter.
However, by dawn, his mood had changed incredibly. After the second bottle of rum he'd realized that Norrington was chasing him, thereby, Norringtons massacre was on Norringtons head. Besides, the Commadore had probably, quite literally, cut some of Jacks debts. Now, Jack was thinking of this as a game. Cat and Mouse.
Gibbs approached the captain, climbing up the dark wooden stairs from the Main Deck to the Navigation Deck. "Jack... what are we doin'? Are we jus' gonna wait for the Commadore to come get us?" Jack looked him up and down for a moment, then shifted his gaze back outwards. The sun had risen, but the Pearl still sat in the shadowy water underneath the cliffs. The shadow extended for a good hundred meters before giving way to a beautiful blue water. The greens and yellows of the island, framed with the magnificent blue of the ocean in the sun struck a sharp contrast to the bleak grey, shadowed cliff face footed with equally bleak grey waters. "Master Gibbs." Jack brought his eyes back down to his faithful first mate. "Just behind them rocks, theres this fellow. You might know him. Terrible temper, speaks like the king himselfs' listenen, white hair with these two little curls, wears a big hat, smells funny. And he, well he's got himself the only ship in the Caribbean who can keep up with us, savvy?" Gibbs glanced at the harbor "You mean to, uh, take that away from him, aye capn'?"
"Aye Gibbs, Aye"
At that precise moment, the bow of the Interceptor appeared around the headlands guarding the harbors mouth. She was undeniably glorious. The grand white sails, sharp blue and golden body, ropes all taunt leading down onto an oaken deck being scrubbed by British sailors. All crowned with the mighty Union Jack, flying proud above the tallest mast.
And the tiny figure of Norrington could be seen standing at the helm.
Jack pulled out his spyglass, and focused in on Norrington. "Gibbs, Fire the Bow cannons, let Norrington know we're here." and after drawing a deep breath he bellowed "Ready the guns! Let down the sails! Battle stations! Battle stations! And someone, for gods sake, get Rodger out!"
Norrington was lucky his hat didn't fall off his head with that jump, and Jack couldn't help but grin. The Pearl was in full motion now, she broke out into the lit waters with a roar. The Interceptor had come about too, the two mighty ships sailed directly at one another.
The Pearl dropped her right Sail as her captain jammed the rudder as far right as it could go, and in a matter of moments, the Pearls cannons were ready to bite some Imperial wood. But the Commadore aboard the Interceptor wasn't asleep, he two had swung about reading to fire, however, the Interceptor had swung to the right, neither could turn in time now, the ships were on a direct collision coarse.
"Fire!" Jack yelled, hearing Norrington yell the same across the water there was a series of mighty booms. The Pearl shuddered, creaked and snapped under the intense fire of the HMS Interceptor. And bits of splintered wood were flying everywhere.
The Interceptor wasn't fairing any better, while the damage to her hull wasn't as severe a lucky shot had downed the Aft mast. There was a brief silence, filled only with the ringing in peoples ears and the muffled shouts of officers and captains while the guns were being reloaded.
The Pearl shuddered again, Jack had changed his mind. Time to go. However, the ships were now inevitably bound for contact. He heard shouts of "Brace for impact!" echoing from Norringtons ship, and many crew members of the pearl (including himself) followed suit.
The ships slammed together, the speed and force of the impact larger and more volatile than Jack would have expected. The ringing of swords, and sharp shots from hand pistols began as the two crews entered melee combat. Jack drew his faithful blade and lept into the fray.
To this day, Jack isn't quite sure how it happened, but somehow he was knocked onto Norringtons ship. Everything seemed more quiet here, more isolated, more personal.
Norrington stood across the deck, his sword also drawn. Jack could see the blood pumping across his forehead. "Feeling like going swimming again, Commadore?". Rather then respond, he just snarled in rage and charged Jack. Jack stepped forward, parrying the oncoming blade, he slid down, stepping to the side and taking a stab at Norringtons exposed kidney, with no luck, Norrington blocked the attack, and quickly countered it with an upward strike, slicing up the front of Jacks torso, and clipping his chin. Norrington kicked Jacks blade across the deck, he was done for, no more arrests for Jack, just an execution. He had no more ideas.
Then suddenly, Anamaria in a whirl of spinning blades and flying hair engaged his would be executioner. "Go Jack! Run, I can handle this one!" Jack turned back to the Pearl, and upon seeing his way blocked by Murtogg and Mullroy, turned and ran back across the deck of the Interceptor

Marquette University /mɑrˈkɛt/ is a private, coeducational, Jesuit, Roman Catholic university located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Established as Marquette College on August 28, 1881 by the Society of Jesus, it was founded by John Martin Henni, the first Bishop of Milwaukee. The university was named after 17th century missionary and explorer Father Jacques Marquette, with the intention to provide an affordable Catholic education to the area's emerging German immigrant population. Initially an all-male institution, Marquette became the first coed Catholic university in the world in 1909, when it began admitting its first female students.
Marquette is one of 28 member institutions of the Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities. The university is accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools and currently has a student body of about 12,000. Marquette is one of the largest Jesuit universities in the United States, and the largest private university in Wisconsin.
Marquette is organized into 11 schools and colleges at its main Milwaukee campus, offering programs in the liberal arts, business, communications, education, engineering, law and various health sciences disciplines. The university also administers classes in suburbs around the Milwaukee area and in Washington, DC. While most students are pursuing undergraduate degrees, the university has over 50 doctoral and master's degree programs and 37 graduate certificate programs. The university's varsity athletic teams, known as the Golden Eagles, are members of the Big East Conference and compete in the NCAA's Division I in all sports. In 2014, U.S. News & World Report ranked Marquette 75th among national universities. Forbes ranked Marquette 87th among American research universities in 2013.

- How Sensor-Packed Smartphones Can Read Your Mood, Guard Your Data — and Wreak Havoc in the Wrong Hands – February 26, 2015
Smartphones can already do pretty much everything, right? Actually, UAB computer scientists have a few more ideas.
They're tapping into the accelerometers, proximity sensors and other environment-aware chips packed into modern phones to help users stay safe — and keep ahead of the bad guys.
Here are seven innovations that could be coming soon to your favorite device.
1. Watching your back
Most of us are very protective of our phones. Ragib Hasan, Ph.D., an assistant professor in the UAB College of Arts and Sciences Department of Computer and Information Sciences and director of SECRETLab, wants them to return the favor. He is developing software to turn a phone into a digital wingman, using information from its camera, microphone, accelerometer and other sensors to gauge a user's attentiveness and respond appropriately. When it detects that a person is driving, for example, it could silence all but the most important alerts. If it decides from the way that you're walking and talking that you are drunk, it could prevent you from making bank transactions. Hasan's code will also save important security warnings for times when you are alert, rather than groggy from sleep.
The project builds on a study by Munirul Haque, Ph.D., who recently completed a postdoctoral fellowship in Hasan's lab, and collaborators at Marquette University. The researchers found that a phone can do a remarkably good job at sensing mood. They parsed camera images to read facial expressions and accelerometer data to judge energy expenditure (anxious people tend to pace; inactivity is often a signal of depression). Their system was able to recognize six different "affective states": anger, disgust, fear, happiness, sadness and surprise.

''One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer — Guitar Art, No Strings Attached''
Artist/designer Pen Morrison brings her ''One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer — Guitar Art, No Strings Attached'' series of sculptures to Cactus Music for a six-week-long exhibit. ''The guitars are very much my homage to the old-school blues guys,'' Morrison told our reporter William Michael Smith after an encounter at last year's iFest. ''There's a dignity in what they did. They never really got their proper due, and they would've done it whether they got paid or not. It was who they were, and that's something I want to show respect for.'' Morrison makes each guitar shape out of steel, but adds bits of wood, paper and other found materials to the sculptures. The series includes odes to Johnny Cash, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Robert Johnson, John Lee Hooker, Jimi Hendrix, Muddy Waters, Albert Collins, T-Bone Walker and George Harrison.
There's an opening reception 6 to 9 p.m. on March 2. Regular viewing hours are 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays, noon to 7 p.m. Sundays. Through April 14. 2110 Portsmouth. For information, call 713-869-9424 or visit www.cactusmusictx.com. Free.

Entry Two
Sebastian went out to the forest again today. I wanted to go with him but he said I couldn't, girls weren't allowed and I was too young. I tried to follow him but he caught me before we got to the village and sent me back home.
I wanted to tell on him to Mother and Father but I knew what Sebastian would do to me if he found out I'd told on him so I kept quiet. I don't know why Sebastian thinks he can get away with breaking the rules, it's not like he's anything special. And why can't I join in? Girls are just as good as boys and I'm nearly as old as Sebastian. Just because he's two years older than me doesn't mean he knows everything.
I was angry at him when I got home so I went and shut myself away in our room. I wasn't going to speak to him when he got back and was determined to be grumpy for the rest of the day.
But Father noticed I was grumpy so he took me out into the fields with him. I like watching him work cutting the corn and putting it into little bundles as he goes along the field. Father says I'm a really big help.
At lunchtime Mother brought us some bread and cheese and ham and we sat in the sun and ate it. I really enjoyed it and when we'd finished I helped Father by tying the string around the bundles of corn while he held them. I liked helping him.
Sebastian was at home when I returned with Father. He looked cross, probably because I'd got to spend the day with Father and help him and Sebastian hadn't. That'll teach him to go wandering off into the forest without me.

Discussion in 'Draft Zone' started by RoundRock Fan, Apr 24, 2006.
Haloti Ngata begins to slide? Move up/Stay pat/Trade down?
If he moves within 3 spots, I'm moving forward.
If he drops past the Ravens, I'd say there would be a good shot he'd fall to us. I don't think that happens though, I can't see him getting past Baltimore or Buffalo. I guess there's always a chance though. He'd make a nice addition to our D.
The only problem is, you don't have to be a 3-4 team to want Ngata. He can play in any scheme, so he is a danger to go at any point in the 1st round (outside of the 1st 5 to 6 picks)
That is true, but looking at the teams between us and Baltimore, I don't think a DT is on top of their list. If anything, I could see a team moving into those slots to get him. Anyways, I can't wait for this draft to start. I've been looking forward to this weekend for months. It's gonna be interesting to see how things play out.
If he doesn't get taken by Buffalo, I think there's a real good chance that he slides to us. If that happens, then I'd be for taking him at 18. The interesting thing here is that I honestly believe that either he or Bunkley could be there. If one of those DTs is available at 18, what do we do? I say we take one or the other and be happy about getting a quality player.
Please let it be so.....ray2:
This is really an interesting scenario IMO. Bunkley and Ngata are both there at the Bills pick, eight overall, which way do they go? Barring trades, they may not go DT here. They could go QB with whichever one is left, they could go OLB which they need badley, they could go with a guy like Huff to replace Troy Vincent who is about 100 years old now or they could go TE if SF doesn't take Davis, which is a real possability IMO. I don't think DT is a certainty at this spot.
Who's the next team that might take a DT? Could be Arizona with a 3 technique, which Bunkley would fit nicely but they have a lot of needs. I don't know that this is there biggest.
It's probably Cleveland. Who would Cleveland take, if they were going to take one of these players? I think that again, it would be Bunkley because I don't really think they need a NT so much as they need a DE. Bunkley could easily be that in a 34 IMO. However, they may like OLB better. If indeed this is what they value, we could see both NTs slide.
I think Baltimore would snatch Bunkley up in this situation but it could be Ngata.
I don't think Philly would take a DT. I don't think Miami would take one. I don't think the Vikes would take one. Denver might take one but there needs are at LB, Tackle, WR and RCB as well. I don't know that DT would be there first choice here. That would leave Ngata available at our pick 18 is the draft were to fall that way.
If he is there, would we take him? I think we would probably have to. There might be trade down options here with a team like Cincy who could probably use a big DT to replace Adams or maybe NYG one pick down. A big tackle like Ngata would really solidify there DL but then I look at there OLBs and secondary and I just think what we would want might not make it cost effective for them. The Jets could use a player like Ngate and they would have the picks to move around with IMO. Could be interesting if it fell this way.
The fins play the 3-4 now, who is their NG?
Just wondering.
If Bunkley is the first DT taken then I think there's a chance Ngata falls
Ngata very well could fall, but I doubt Bunkley has anything to do with it.
Both Cleveland and Baltimore need a DT. If he gets by them, then we have to worry about Miami.
If he gets passed all three of them you have to wonder what they know about him to pass on him. They can ask him when he shows up for his press conference being introduced as the newest dallas cowboy.
Keith Traylor
Manny Wright
6-6 329 lbs
2nd year USC.
Supplemental draft.
I'd get out of his way...
Ahh, Wright is the guy that cried, right?
Traylor is old and backed up by a baby. Yeah, they'd draft Ngata if they had the chance.
I don't know about that Rack. Cleveland has Jason Fisk and Ted Washington. I absolutly think they could use a DT but do they need a DT as bad as they need a RDE? Right now, they don't have a guy on there roster who can play the position. Look at there LBs as well. They have Matt Stewart, Andrea Davis, Ben Taylor and McGinest as starters. Behind them, there is nothing. Even there RCB spot is in terrible shape. Safety could use real help. They got a lot of holes defensively. Trade down could be the deal here or any number of positions. It could all come down to who is rated highest on there board. It may not be a DT.
Baltimore, they do need a DT but they also need a RB and MLB and maybe a QB if one is there.
My best friend is a Browns fan. Fisk was absolute garbage for them last year. Washington is 75 years old.
If Ngata makes it to them, they'll likely draft him. And about their LBs, Chaun Thompson is one of their starters.
And yes, Baltimore does need a DT. All they've got is ... forgot that fat white guy's name. But they don't have anyone else. They don't play the 3-4 anymore so they need to quality starters, not just one.
Perhaps but two things here. Miami may be going to a 34 but I don't know that they will be able to do that this year. They have Zach Thomas at MLB and nobody else that can play the other IBL position, assuming Thomas can play it, which I doubt. They still have Vonnie Holliday under contract which would be a cap hit because he's not going to be able to play NT in a 34. He might be able to play DE in a 34 but I don't know. You look at this teams CBs and all you got is cricket chirps. They got nobody and at there draft spot, that might just be the pick. I don't think you can say that NT is there for sure pick.
This team has a lot of holes. NT would not be a bad pick but there far from being able to say that NT is there pick for sure. As I said earlier, it depends on who is rated where on there board.
Kelly Gregg and Jim Bannon are the DTs in Baltimore. While you look at it and say they need a DT, they actually got pretty damn good production out of these two. Gregg got 61 tackles to go with 2.5 sacks last year. He's missed two games in 4 years. Bannon is a 5th year guy they got from Buffalo. He had 40 tackles last year with 1.5 sacks. I honestly don't think this is there most critical need position. They can easily pick a guy up later to fill out the rotation. They have bigger needs, IMO along the OL and at RB then they do at DT.
They went to a 3-4 last season.
They are in a position to take the BPA since they don't have great players at many positions. If Ngata were there, he would likely be the BPA. Plus, it would be filling a vital role in the 3-4 defense. He could even play DE and NG till Washington finally retires.
And the Browns have Reuben Droughns. They just gave him a new contract. They won't be drafting a RB in the first. He was their first 1000 yard rusher since 1985. Their OL has been worked on quite a bit the last two seasons. And they picked up Bentley this year. Aside from Justice, there won't be an OL available that is anywhere near worth that pick.
Also, it's not just 3-4 teams we have to worry about. Ngata could play in the 4-3 as well.

The adafruit GPS is a very accurate GPS module. But you use it with your cellphone to send the coords to Arduino? Using GRPS is horrible. It is not accurate to calculate the position. And it is very slow.. Can you tell me the name of the compass you are using?View Instructable »
Maybe i can help you out whit tis.
Yes it is possible. I did some coding, and my car follows a path of waypoints to reach the destination. And it is very accurate. Only you need is the right GPS. I prefer the u-blox 6M NEO GPS. It is a cheap GPS module. But very usefull. Its cheaper then the Adafruit.
It is a shield. But you can do it whithout GPS shield and use another Motor shield like the L298N. And Ublox 6 NEO GPS module. Its cheaper, and you have a lot more space on your arduino Mega.View Instructable »

The distance...
" I don't know why your so mad at me" Opa sighed
Momma explained " Something could of happened...these are different times. Children can't just be left alone..."
Eli looked at her mother puzzled. She knew she was afraid of the soliders. But the soliders were only inconviences. They would always walk right infront of you and ask where you were going. They always did it when Momma was holding lots of groceries. She would sigh and strain as she explained endlessly she was going home. Where else would she be going with milk, potatoes and a head of lettuce?
Oma nodded and patted Momma shoulders. Then she gave Momma a quick hug. Momma returned it and then quickly looked away. Momma's eyes were red and puffy again. Momma rubbed her eyes and looked away. She bent down by the cupboard. Then slowly poured herself a cup of tea.
" Momma?" Eli asked
" Momma, Eli wants to see her surprise now" Momma muttered
" Aww...yes...cover your eyes child" Oma exclaimed.
Oma rubbed her hands on her apron needless and ran into her bedroom. Eli threw her hands over eyes and peered through her fingers at Opa. Opa closed her fingers. Eli slapped her hands at her sides and squinted her eyes shut.
" Hold up your hands" Oma said
Eli obeyed. She quickly felt the sudtle weight of a book. Eli's eyes slowly fluttered open. She looked at the book. It had no title and no words. Eli looked at her Oma.
" It's called a journal" Oma said " It's for you to write your story. Your Momma tells me your a writer."
Eli shrugged " I just write. There are much better ones out there..."
Oma shook her head " No one's better than my Eli"
Eli looked around and then at her Oma " Where's my sweater?"
Oma face lit up " I made you something different this year since you are older..."
Oma pulled out from behind her back a navy blue sweater with buttons! But it didn't have little flowers on it and it wasn't pink. Eli slipped it on. It didn't really go with her brown dress and brown stockings but it was nice. Not as itchy as the rest.
" Looks very grown up" Momma smiled at her
Eli looked at her Momma. Her eyes had dried but they were still red. Eli ran up and gave her a hug. Eli almost cried too. But she really didn't know why...
" Let's go eat now" Momma whispered softly by Eli's ear
Eli nodded and sat down in her chair. Oma brought over a steaming dish of Shepard's pie and slapped a pile on everyone's plate. She put two pile's on Opa's plate. Eli didn' t think he really needed two piles. But Opa shoveled it in anyway. Momma and Opa ate theirs the same. First slowly blowing on it and slowly savouring every bite. Eli was lucky if her food even made it to her mouth. Ground beef and corn scattered around the edge of her plate. Eli sighed. She would never be a lady.
Rusty nosed Eli's am out of the way and licked at the edge of her plate. Momma sighed and pushed the large dog out of the way. Rusty whined and lay at Eli's feet. He waited impatiently for the food to come tumbling down.
Oma looked at Rusty anonyed " Our first dog was so well behaved. Won't beg...Not even for a crumb. But Pappa was never firm with this one..."
Opa shook his head " There's nothing wrong with the dog. He was a good hunting dog and know he' s a good guard dog"
Oma rolled her eyes " The only thing he does is take up space"
" If there was a robber, Rusty would catch him, tie him up and call the police" Opa said.
Oma and Momma both rolled their eyes and smiled. Rusty continued to eye Eli's plate. Eli wanted to give him a handful but Momma was watching the dog. So Eli just petted his head gently with her feet and kept eating.
" What's for dessert ?" Eli asked
Oma looked at her stupified " What dessert?"
Momma rolled her eyes " Can Opa even survive a day without dessert?"
Oma pretended to scowl " No one lets me have any fun. Ofcourse there's dessert and no Pappa couldn't live one day without dessert"
Opa nodded in agreement " I didn't give her a ring until I tasted her apple pie"
Oma rolled her eyes and looked at Eli " I didn't tell him until after the wedding that it was my sister's pie. I was never much of a baker until the kids came around. "
Momma looked around the table and said " Okay who's done?"
Momma piled all the plates and Eli helped scrap them into Rusty's bowl. Rusty lapped up the leftovers eagerly. Eli threw the dishes in the sink before Rusty tried licking them.
Oma pulled an Apple Crisp from the oven and piled it on four plates. She put two piles on one plate. Then put them on the table.
" This is what I call Oma's wartime apple crisp. Sweet apples give it the sweetness...not sugar and the crisp is bread crumbs" Oma explained
" It's good,inventive" Momma said with a full mouth " I miss the days when sugar and flour were plentiful"
Opa shook his head " I don't. Her dessets just keeping getting better. She was getting lazy...now she's got to use that noggin of hers..."
Oma rolled her eyes again. Momma nodded her head.
" True. True. All we need is a little creativity" Momma agreed
" I've been saving all my old socks and turning them in to puppets" Eli said " I took an old box and made a theater..."
" Just what I was talking about..." Opa said with his mouth full." Using your head "
" I brought some of them here. I brought Alice and Vincent and Rusty the dog puppet. Alice and Vincent are in love. Rusty's their chaperone. " Eli said
Opa snorted " Some chaperone... look the lazy dog is sleeping again"
" Speaking of sleeping, it's almost time for someone to get to bed" Momma said
Eli pouted " But I'm on vacation!"
" Early to bed, early to rise" Oma said.
Momma nodded in agreement " Tomorrow is going to be a full day. Tomorrow were going to do whatever you want"
" I want to go see the bridge again" Eli said
Momma looked at Eli puzzled but then just shrugged " We can do that and we can do a lot of other things. Dream about it tonight"
Eli wasn't sleepy. She was convinced she would never be able to dream tonight. She lay in her and her mother's bed and looked at the ceiling. It was white bland. She stared at the bright hallway. The grown up voices were hushed but Eli was able to make out the words " The truth will come out"
Eli wasn't sure what the truth was anymore. There was his truth...Hitlers and then their was Momma's. Momma said what Hitler was doing was wrong. But alot of people didn't like Jewish people. They made them wear stars and go to their own schools...Eli wanted to wear a star too but Momma won't let her. Eli liked stars they were so pretty and you could make wishes on them. Eli pinned on a patchwork moon instead. Eli liked the moon too. But no one else wore moon pins.
Eli's eyes slowly got heavy...She slowly saw a patchwork moon infront of her and sparkly stars infront of her. She walked through the forest in her rubber boots and a green dress. It was too long. Eli ran and held up the dress. Eli wasn't scared she was running to feel the wind in her face. The wind made her think of him and that made her lonely. Eli slowed down and looked around for away out of the trees but they were just so close together. Eli counldn't seem to squeeze through or see anything past the interlocking branches. She was trapped in the forest with no way to get to him...Eli suddenly got an idea. Eli slipped of her fancy dress and left it on the ground. Then started climbing a tall tree in her slip.
From the top of the tree she could see the shape of him. He was so far away and Eli had no wings to fly to him...
