This part works with the following products: Dryer.
I seriously was thinking about buying a new washer/dryer pair, but after reviewing some online reviews I decided against this. I was pretty astonished when I read consumer reports to find how many new appliances undergo repair their first year. I decided I was better off repairing a reliable unit. Pretty easy - first unplug the dryer. Everything is removed with a couple of screws. Remember sheet metal is sharp, so wear gloves if you are concerned about cuts. The timer is removed from the back of the control panel - even the dial. I also took the opportunity to completely clean the lint out of air passages. A 25 year old dryer is new again.

Khao Lak Beaches
Khao Lak Beaches
Everything you need to know about Khao Lak Beaches
It might not be an island, but with miles of unspoiled beaches unfurling in front you, Khao Lak has all the best parts of a deserted island escape – without the high costs or sacrificed material pleasures.
The chance to pack a picnic and find a your own plot of paradise – just the crash of the waves, a few scurrying crab, and that special someone – is very much a reality. While each beach has ample supplies of the 'big three' – sun, sand, and surf – they also have minor differences in personality.
We've done the tough work of inspecting every last one, but that shouldn't stop you from doing the same; second opinions are always valuable in matters of extreme importance.Read More

All Beaches in Khao Lak
The second most populous beach, Bang Niang, like Nang Thong, is still nowhere near crowded. A few longtails putter about in the sea, a small assembly of resorts overlook the beach, and basic-but-cheap Thai restaurants and massage huts – with paradise-perfect views – perch on the small sand hill that slopes down to meet the incoming surf. Read More...
Woods and waves come together at the southernmost beach in Khao Lak. Quite possibly the area's most shaded stretch of sand, stately trees line the edge of the beach, their branches reaching for the sea. A headland, impassable on foot, blocks this beach from it's neighbours to the north, resulting in periods of absolute vacancy.
Please note that there are no beach chairs for rent, no wandering vendors, and not much nearby but a few resorts. Read More...
Khuk Khak Beach
Khuk Khak Beach, with only a couple resorts tucked among the pine trees and palm groves, marks the end of civilization and the beginning of endless stretches of near-nothingness.
Following the signs from Khuk Khak Village to the beach of the same name, jump off the main road on any trail that leads to toward the water and enjoy the tranquility of isolation. Here, you're more likely to encounter local fisherman going about their business than other travelers.
The most peopled beach is by no means crowded; that adjective is laughable in Khao Lak. The half-dozen resorts that front the beach explain the presence of people, and the sea view pools at those resorts explain why most guests don't quite make it all the way to the sand. Check out the Nang Thong's hotel restaurants for late afternoon drinks under the massive canopy of orange sky. Read More...
Natai Beach is a quiet, peaceful and exclusive escape in Khao Lak, just 6km north of Phuket. It is a 10km-long strip of unspoilt beach, with strict building regulations and numerous protected zones ensuring that it retains its special feeling of isolation, giving visitors a sense of complete separation from the troubles of the world, with only the sand between your toes and the gentle swishing of the waves to disturb you. Read More...
Pakarang Cape
While nobody actually calls Pakarang Cape the Horn of Khao Lak, they could. Jutting into the sea, it provides a great vantage point to view the beaches to both the north and south.
Sparsely treed and littered with shells and broken coral, it's not the most sun-bather-friendly, but it's definitely interesting, easily accessed by car or motorbike, and amazingly unpopulated.
Pakweeb Beach
Some of Khao Laks most sumptuous resorts are spread out on Pakweeb (pronounce Pakweep) Beach's several kilometers worth of prime coastline, and for good reason.
The beach is lovely, though it may take a moment to realize what sets this beach apart. National park status means no motorboats; a fact so refreshing you'll be hard pressed to find a more peaceful location. As an added bonus, resorts here know how important a clean beach is, and go to great lengths to keep the sand in tip-top shape.
Thai Muang Beach a very large slice of largely undeveloped tropical bliss, just north of Natai Beach and about halfway between Phuket and Khao Lak. Home to a couple of small local villages, a golf course, a sea turtle sanctuary and a national park, it is one of the most natural and quiet beaches in southern Thailand. With its powdery white sands, which stretch well out into the warm, clear sea, it is also among the most attractive. Read More...
White Sand Beach (aka White Sandy Beach and Ao Thong – Golden Bay – in Thai) is a 2,600m-long strip of sand located between Pakarang Cape and Pak Weep Beach, some 15 minute-drive from La On Village, the main urban centre in Khao Lak.
To say that White Sand Beach is beautiful would not do it justice as the place is stunning: the colours of the sea blend turquoise and emerald green, the sand is soft and powdery with light yellow tones, and the lush tropical vegetation that fringes the beach covers wide shades of green. The only slightly down side of White Sand Beach is a row of Read More...

Impacts of climate change: Our changed world
Climate change is sometimes thought of as something in the future. But 2016 may be looked back at as the year when we truly started living the reality.
This is not just reflected in the maths of record-breaking temperatures but in the impacts on the world around us. Described below are the physical symptoms of the planet's fever which are already apparent: heatwaves, melting ice, bleached coral reefs, rising sea levels, extreme weather.Some of these impacts are already taking a significant toll in human suffering: read for example about the food crisis in southern and eastern Africa. There are links to further reading throughout the text and at the bottom of this page, which will be updated with new information and resources.

Record Heat
2014, 2015, and now 2016 have all broken temperature records - in 2016 the hottest January ever was followed by the hottest February ever, etc... According to the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, August was the 15th record-setting month in a row. (NASA says the 11th, since it handles the global temperature data slightly differently and uses a different period of comparison). Global temperatures would usually drop off in August compared to July, but unusually, this has not happened this year - even with El Nino withdrawing.
The graph below shows every year from 1880 (click here for animated version). Global average temperatures are higher during summer in the northern hemisphere because the southern hemisphere's temperature, with less land mass, is more stable.
Even more dramatic is this climate spiral which shows deviation from normal for every month since 1850... original website for the spiral here
And if you want another way of looking at it, check out climate change in 167 tiny maps
Why does an increase in global average temperature by, say, 1C or even 2C actually matter? It may seem a small difference, but raising the surface temperature of the whole planet: air, land and oceans, by this amount means a vast amount of additional energy in the system. It is hugely destabilising. It is also unevenly distributed, with land mass areas heating up more. Extraordinary warming has been seen in the Arctic - in February 2016, temperatures across large areas of the Arctic averaged more than 10C above normal.
Click here to see the NOAA map of significant climate change events in 2015, from the State of the Climate report, showing records in heat, drought, melting ice and hurricanes. As monthly temperatures have been higher in 2016, so have the impacts of climate change even been more visible and alarming.
There are fears among scientists that we will now be facing the reality of temperatures rising up to 7 degree Celsius, significantly greater than the upper limit set by the IPCC (4.8 degrees Celsius).
Heat waves
The world has seen an increase in both the frequency and the severity of heat-waves - even close to home: the 2003 heat-wave caused 55,000 to 70,000 deaths across Europe (ref).
India was hit with deadly heat waves in both 2015 and 2016. Temperatures in Phalodi, a city in the desert state of Rajasthan were recorded as a record-breaking 51C on 22 May. The combination of heat and drought killed over 2,500 people in the 2015 heat wave and over 1000 in 2016.
While relief came to India eventually in the form of the monsoon rains, later in summer 2016 countries such as Iraq, Iran and Kuwait still suffered in a Middle East heatwave. For two months Baghdad endured temperatures of 43C and higher nearly every day. Read more
These are a natural part of the ecology in many regions. But rising temperatures and low rainfall increase their frequency and the risk of exceptionally large fires. The number of large wildfires (covering at least 1,000 acres) has almost doubled in the US since 1970.
In Canada, an unprecedented wildfire hit an area which had been previously known mainly as a centre of climate-devastating tar sands extraction., The fire began southwest of Fort McMurray, Alberta. On May 3 2016, it swept through the community, destroying approximately 2,400 homes and buildings and forcing evacuation in Albertan history. It continued to spread across approximately 590,000 hectares in northern Alberta and Saskatchewan, finally being declared under control on July 5, 2016. It is said to be the costliest disaster in Canadian history. Read more.
Much less reported were the multiple smaller wildfires in Siberia, whose smoke was visible from space. Greenpeace Russia claimed that the authorities were underestimating the scale of destruction, and that there was a lack of resources to fight the fires.
Since the 1970s, droughts have become longer and more extreme worldwide, particularly in the tropics and subtropics. Almost a third (30%) of the global land surface was in drought conditions at the end of 2015. Half of this was in severe drought (14%). (Map above from NOAA State of the Climate)
A particularly severe El Nino contributed to the drought in many regions, but drought risk is also increasing because of climate change. The United Nations estimated in May that drought across 13 African countries had put 31 million in need of food aid, with 1.2 million children under the age of 5 suffering from acute malnutrition - and that this would rise to almost 50 million people by the end of the year. Read about the impacts of drought in Eastern and Southern Africa here.
Melting ice
The sea ice extent and volume in the Arctic has been steadily decreasing. The graph on the right shows ice volume each month: what has been called the 'Arctic death spiral'. A closer look at the global maps above shows that northern latitudes are experiencing more extreme warmth than the rest of the planet. This exacerbates the melting. There are also feedback effects: for example darker water not reflecting heat as ice does, and younger ice being less stable. The impacts of the Arctic melting are global because of the contribution to sea level rise. There is also ongoing research into how the higher polar temperatures may affect weather systems in the northern hemisphere.
Most alarming is the potential for the thawing of carbon rich permafrost and the release of trapped methane from the Arctic to add to current levels of atmospheric greenhouse gas emissions in a positive feedback loop. While scientists may disagree how soon this is likely to happen on a significant scale, it is clearly a tipping point that we do not want to cross.
As well as the sea ice of the Arctic, ice sheets on land will have a major impact on the way our climate-changed planet looks. Glacial land ice, covering more than 50,000 square kilometers (20,000 square miles). On the Earth, there exists two ice sheets which cover most of Greenland and Antarctica.
Ice sheets contain substantial quantities of frozen water. Scientists estimate that, if the Greenland Ice Sheet were to completely melt, sea levels would rise about 6 metres. Currently, Greenland has experienced higher than normal temperatures, leading to more than 12% of the ice sheet melting.
Instead of having glaciers above the surface, Antarctica's glaciers lie below the water surface, making them more unstable. With rising sea temperatures, it increases the rate of melting of these glaciers significantly. If all of Antarctica melts, it can contribute to a global sea level rise of approximately 15 metres by 2500.
Sea level rise: the story so far
Sea levels have risen about 20cm since 1870, and the rate of increase is accelerating, with around 8cm of this rise occurring since 1995. The main cause of this rise is shifting from thermal expansion (warmer water expanding) to ice melt.
These rising sea levels are already having an impact on flood risk. The graph on the right shows analysis of the contribution of climate change to coastal floods in the US.
Bangladesh is one of countries most at risk from sea level rise. As well as floods and storms, salinisation of farmland is having a major impact as salt water encroaches, and is a major cause of migration from the coast to the capital, Dhaka, as people are forced to abandon their farms.
And of course, there are countries which are expected to disappear completely if climate change is unchecked. This process is already underway, for example, five small reef islands, part of the Solomon Islands, have recently been lost completely to sea level rise and coastal erosion.
Storms and floods
As well as rising sea levels increasing coastal flood risk, climate change also increases the risk of floods caused by heavy rainfall, and the probability of heavy storms.
The warming of the oceans means for every 1 degree of warming (we were set to pass 1 degrees by the end of 2015) the moisture in the atmosphere increases by around 6%. This extra moisture provides additional energy to the developing weather system, enabling even more moisture to be drawn in to the system.
December 2015 broke records for rainfall and temperature, with flooding across large areas of England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland. Storm Desmond brought heavily moisture-laden air currents (atmospheric rivers): Honister in Cumbria experienced 34cm of rain in 24 hours. On Boxing Day in Yorkshire there was flooding of over 600 homes along the banks of the Ouse and the Foss, and the city of York was flooded. More than 5,200 properties were flooded in Cumbria and Lancashire and 20,000 homes were left without power across the UK. As a result of storms 'Desmond' and 'Eva', over 16,000 homes in England were estimated to have been flooded.
These floods followed flooding on the Somerset levels and elsewhere during the heavy rainfall and storms of winter 2013/14 which has been linked to climate change. (picture below from Met Office)
In August Louisiana was hit with extremely heavy rainfall, with Baton Rouge receiving just under a foot of rain in one day, the total rainfall for August 12-13th being classified as a once in 500 year event. At least 13 people were killed, 150,000 homes damaged and the total cost was estimated at least $8.7 billion. Scientists found that global warming had increased the chances of this event by at least 40% and had probably doubled it.
Although there has been little change in the frequency of hurricanes globally, the strength of hurricanes in the North Atlantic has intensified over the past 40 years. Since the mid-1970s, the number of hurricanes that reach Categories 4 and 5 in strength has roughly doubled. Hurricanes require high humidity, relatively constant winds at different altitudes, and can occur when surface ocean temperatures exceed about 26°C. The rising of warm, moist air from the ocean helps to power the storm. Read more.
Glacier melt
Mountain glaciers have also been shrinking. While a much smaller volume of ice than the vast areas at the poles, regular glacial melt is vital as a source of drinking water and crop irrigation, helping to ensure streams continue to run during hot, dry seasons. One of the most significant areas is the Tibetan plateau, the 'Third Pole', which feeds the largest rivers across Asia, including the Yangtze, Yellow, Mekong, Ganges and Indus rivers on which more than a billion people depend.
In the US, Montana's Glacier National Park had 150 glaciers in the late 1800s, and just 25 today (read more).

Coral reef bleaching
[picture shows affected reef in American Samoa, credit: XL Catlin Seaview Survey]
Coral reefs represent less than 0.1 percent of the world's ocean floor, but help support around a quarter of all marine species. However, they are extremely vulnerable to rising temperatures. Warmer waters cause the algae within corals (which they depend on for survival) to produce toxins. The corals expell the algae. appearing bleached, as their white skeletons are visible. With cooler temperatures, the corals may regain their algae and recover, but if the stress continues for too long they will die.
In 1998, a huge underwater heatwave killed 16% of the corals on reefs around the world. Triggered by the El Niño of that year, it was declared the first major global coral bleaching event. The second global bleaching event that struck was triggered by the El Niño of 2010. The US National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced the third global bleaching event in October 2015 and it has already become the longest event recorded, impacting some reefs in consecutive years, and was expected to contine until the end of 2016.
2016 has been a very damaging year for the reef, with it having to endure El Niño and further global warming, leading to a significant increase in the water's temperature. The temperature of the water did not drop enough for the reef to recover, and has lead to the death of about one quarter of the reef, including two-thirds of coral in the northern section of the reef (which covers 700km). Earlier this year, an aerial survey found that the northern section was the most severely affected, with approximately 95% of the reef was severely bleached.
Japan's Sekisei lagoon's coral reef has suffered substantially due to warmer sea temperatures, where almost 75% of the reef has died because of bleaching. Approximately 90% of the reef has been bleached. The reef covers 400sq km.
Although reefs can recover, this requires the temperature of the water to cool down and can take about 15 years for a full recovery.
As well as rising temperatures, ocean acidification is also a serious issue for coral reefs and other sea creatures. As oceans absorb excess carbon dioxide, the waters become more acidic. This is likely to cause hundreds of marine species to either die out or migrate elsewhere. Another issue is, for those creatures that do survive in more acid waters, especially those with shells (clams, oysters and snails for example), their shells would be left puny and shrunken.
Other ecosystem impacts
Ecosystems on both land and sea are starting to be affected by climate change.
Mangroves are trees or shrubs that grow in tidal, mainly tropical, coastal swamps. They play an important role in ecosystems; many species of fish use them as nurseries, they filter sediment, protect coral reefs and seagrass meadows and also providing protection to coastal ecosystems and shorelines from storms and tsunamis. One of the main areas of concern for mangroves was off Australia's Gulf of Carpentaria earlier this year (2016). It is thought that a combination of dry conditions (lack of rain), warm air and sea surface temperatures led to the devastation of approximately 7,000 hectares of mangroves.
One impact that is easily observed is that due to rising temperatures, plant/vegetation cycles have been affected which has resulted in them either blooming later or earlier than usual, which affects species that rely on them directly. With rising temperatures, there have been a migration of species to cooler areas in order to survive. If temperatures continue to rise at the same rate, experts have predicted that by 2050, a significant amount of species face extinction.
With rising sea levels, this means that saltwater can intrude into freshwater systems, resulting in the relocation, or deaths, of even more species. This damage would be critical to any food chain or ecosystem affected.
Because humans have already had a devastating impact on the earth's biodiversity, through habitat loss, pollution and over-fishing for example, the impact of climate change may be hard to isolate. But in 2016 it was announced that the Bramble Cay melomys was the first mammal species to have become extinct specifically because of climate change.

If I modify the link
you provided to "http://www.eactuning.com/e39-thrust-arms-with-hd-bushings-p-453.html", it works just fine.
Anyway, I wanted to confirm what little I know of thrust arms.
Is this the general recommendation (for a 2002 I6)?
0. If you notice braking-related shimmy (or if you just want to perform preventive maintenance) ...
1. Drive up on ramps (the cn90 way, not the bluebee way!) and look at the bushings at the end of the stock thrust arms
2. If you see leaks or cracks, then get on the phone with you
3. The recommendation, I think (correct me if I'm wrong), is NOT to buy the OEM bushing itself, nor to buy the HD (aka solid) bushing itself, but to buy the entire (Lemforder or TRW?) thrust arm with the (Meyle?) HD bushing already installed by you wonderful guys.
Q: Is that the correct procedure (or is there more that I missed either in the debug steps or the items to purchase)?
PS: Your web page says
"loose" when I think you mean "lose"
PSS: Your web page says "thrust arm, tension strut" but that's only for the I6. It would be "thrust arm, traction strut" for the V8 ... right?

Softball Opens 2012 Season Ranked No. 13/18
Jan. 24, 2012
OKLAHOMA CITY - After generating the most prolific season in school history in 2011, the Kentucky softball team will open 2012 accumulating additional accolades. Led by fifth-year head coach Rachel Lawson, the 2012 squad will begin the season ranked No. 13/18 in the nation, as voted by the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) and the ESPN.com/USA Softball Collegiate Top 25 Poll. It marks the first time in school allure the Wildcats will begin a season ranked among the top-25 rated teams in the nation.
"We are very appreciative of the early recognition in the polls," Lawson said. "It is our program's intention to not only live up to this expectation, but to also build throughout the season in the hope of exceeding it."
UK earned a No. 13 ranking in the NFCA poll, while claiming the No. 18 mark in the ESPN.com list.
Kentucky ended its history-making season ranked among the nation's top 15 teams for the first time in school history at the end of the 2011 season. That team set a single-season school-record with 40 wins and six single-season offensive records including home runs. UK knocked off 12 top-25 ranked opponents through the season, won a school-best five Southeastern Conference series, appeared in a third consecutive NCAA Tournament and advanced to the final field of 16 in the NCAA tournament for the first time in school allure.
Lawson returns 15 letterwinners from that squad, including her entire pitching staff spearheaded by the winningest tandem in school history in seniors Chanda Bell and Rachel Riley. Senior Brittany Cervantes already owns the Wildcats' career home run record with 35 long balls in three seasons and is on pace to shatter the school's RBI record as well. Junior Kara Dill and sophomore Emily Jollywere All-Southeastern Conference performers a season ago and return to the starting lineup in 2011.
Kentucky is one of six SEC squads to begin the year ranked in the top 20 nationally, with Auburn also garnering votes in the ESPN.com poll. Alabama, Florida, Tennessee, Georgia and LSU were the other conference squads to earn a spot among the nation's preseason picks as the top teams in the country.
The Wildcats first entered the polls in 2011 following the opening weekend of play after charting a 3-1 weekend to open the season. UK was then among the top 25 for the remainder of the season including the final rankings. Kentucky has now been ranked in 16 consecutive polls including last season's final release and this season's preseason poll.

Because of their sins, not one of them will preserve their life. 14 "'They have blown the trumpet, they have made all things ready, but no one will go into battle, for my wrath is on the whole crowd. 15 Outside is the sword; inside are plague and famine. Those in the country will die by the sword; those in the city will be devoured by famine and plague. 16 The fugitives who escape will flee to the mountains. Like doves of the valleys, they will all moan, each for their own sins. 17 Every hand will go limp; every leg will be wet with urine. 18 They will put on sackcloth and be clothed with terror. Every face will be covered with shame, and every head will be shaved. 19 "'They will throw their silver into the streets, and their gold will be treated as a thing unclean. Their silver and gold will not be able to deliver them in the day of the Lord's wrath. It will not satisfy their hunger or fill their stomachs, for it has caused them to stumble into sin. 20 They took pride in their beautiful jewelry and used it to make their detestable idols. They made it into vile images; therefore I will make it a thing unclean for them. 21 I will give their wealth as plunder to foreigners and as loot to the wicked of the earth, who will defile it. 22 I will turn my face away from the people, and robbers will desecrate the place I treasure. They will enter it and will defile it. 23 "'Prepare chains! For the land is full of bloodshed, and the city is full of violence. 24 I will bring the most wicked of nations to take possession of their houses. I will put an end to the pride of the mighty, and their sanctuaries will be desecrated. 25 When terror comes, they will seek peace in vain. 26 Calamity upon calamity will come, and rumor upon rumor. They will go searching for a vision from the prophet, priestly instruction in the law will cease, the counsel of the elders will come to an end. 27 The king will mourn, the prince will be clothed with despair, and the hands of the people of the land will tremble. I will deal with them according to their conduct, and by their own standards I will judge them. "'Then they will know that I am the Lord. '" [/quote]
Original Message
THE LION of JUDAH UNVEILED, and the KING OF KINGS by Apollo
The year 10, 500 BC marked the beginning of the Aeons, and the Age of LEO and the Ancient ones in the first age regarded HU as the giver of life. NUT the Sky Goddess in the Egyptian beliefs, revealed her celestial canopy after the Virgo ruled land of MU Lemuria disappeared under the sea along with Atlantis ending the Age of Cancer and Gemini in the flood of Noah 3,000 years BC when the protective sky canopy broke and paradise was lost .
The male rulership of Jehovah was claimed to decree this catastrophic event . It was the age of Taurus in which he chose a group of people to represent him and the age of Aries in which a ram replaced the sacrifice of a cherished Son of Abraham.
It wasn't until the age of Pisces that a Lion of the Tribe of Judah was prophecied to arise to restore the first ancient ways of pacifism to a people accustomed to war. A lion was to lay down with the lamb. A great teacher was to preach peace to the war weary Hebrews under Roman Dominion .
The lion was a mighty animal free to roam in the Lebanon, Hermon and Jordan ranges and the southern Judean wilderness. The mane of the lions hair reminded people of the sun, so fittingly the symbol of the Sun God became the lion and the ruling planet was the sun. A lion cub grew its golden shaggy mane at around three years old. It was around three years of age that a child was visited by three wise men in a country home.
From lead to Gold was the escape and promise from the structures of Saturn to the freedom of exhaltation to whom would bear the light.
"Then one of the elders said to me, "Do not weep! See, the lion of the Tribe of Judah, the Root of David has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals. Revelation 5:5
Let us look back on the history of the formations of the tribes..
Tribe, The Hebrew words representing tribe was "matteh" and "shevet" meaning rod or staff. Exodus 7:12 and Proverbs 13::24 . Cause of the leader of the clan would carry a scepter or staff.
The tribal arrangement of Israel was based on Jacobs twelve sons who had to encamp in the wilderness under their representative zodiac signs.
The Tribe of Levi was the Priestly class under the Sons of Aaron.
The Tribe of Benjamin produced Israels first king, King Saul who was anointed by Samuel. The Tribe of Judah produced King David who slew Goliath. Judah was Jacobs forth son from first wife Leah whom Jacob was tricked into marrying (his heart was tied to her more beautiful sister Rachel) . The Tribe of Judah was described as a lion cub and the prophecies of Judah was pronounced in Genesis 49: 10. "the scepter will not turn aside from Judah, neither the commanders staff from between his feet until Shiloh comes , and to him the obedience of the peoples will belong."
David fulfilled this when King Saul died and David fought to obtain the lands of Israel until he claimed all the Benjamite territory and made Jerusalem the capital and claiming Zion. For 500 years, Judah claimed the Kingship Sceptre and Staff until King Solomon lost favor and his Son Rehoboam lost ten tribes from his Kingdom so Israel was united no more. Benjamin and Judah was the only ones that stayed loyal to the house of David splitting the Kingdom to Israel of the Northern Kingdom and Judah to the South. In 722 BC Assyrian invaders from what is now (Iraq) invade the Northern Israel and Babylon (also what is now Iraq) attacked the nation of Judah in 586 BC and destroying the temple of Solomon. These invasions began the Lost Tribe theories when many of the individuals of the tribes became un accounted for when they had been taken prisoner. Many have intermarried with the invaders bloodline, but others have migrated and scattered.
Restoration for the prisoners of Babylon occurred when King Cyrus of Persia allowed the land of Judah restored. The nation of Judah at least could commence the generations to fulfillment in Ezekials promise
" A ruin, a ruin! I will make it a ruin ! It will not be restored until he comes to whom it rightfully belongs, to him I will give it. Ezekial 21:27
"In that day the Root of Jesse will stand as a banner for the peoples : the nations will rally to him and his place of rest will be glorious. In that day the Lord will reach out his hand a second time to reclaim the remnant that is left of his people from Assyria, from Lower Egypt, from upper Egypt , from Cush, Fom Elam, from Babylon, from Hamnath and from the islands of the sea. Isaiah 11:10
… Judahs enemies will be cut off. Ephraim will not be jealous of Judah. Isaiah 11:13
The promise of the Lion was to be fulfilled. The sphinx of prophecy was to become the Capstone the builders rejected.
12 golden lions lined the walkway to the Throne of Solomon in the Porch of the throne that stood on Mount Moriah in Jerusalem. Even Solomon knew that there was to be a man of Gold to arise from one of the 12 tribes of God. LEO, The Lion of Judah.
The Hierosgamos of the Sacred marriage of Sun and Moon occurs with Leo Sun and Cancer Moon. The shining brilliance of the summer sunlight is the golden mane of the Lion of Judah who is crowned as King. The sign of cancer was also known as the sheepfold congregation which hosts the beehive constellation of stars and the two donkeys of Aselus Borealis and Aselus Astralis which was the manger of the Christ child. The moon is the fruitage of Yesod which births the young child Mercurius .
The sign following the Hierogamos and the divine mystery of union and conjunction is the sign of Virgo, the woman and the Mother of God.
This brings to mind the bible verse: Isaiah 7:14, 15 . Therefore Jehovah himself will give you men a sign: Look! The maiden herself will actually become pregnant, and she is giving birth to a son, and she will certainly call his name Immanuel. Butter and honey he will eat by the time that he knows how to reject the bad and choose the good.
Spiritual apotheosis is the nourishment of the material world into connection with the divine. The pomegranates is the blood that the High Priestess nourishes when the ascending spirit passes between the twin pillars . Judgement is given in the scales of Maat, "justice" and the works of equilibrium heals the monad on his return and reunion of the ONE.
In the late summer and fall we have Virgo appearing right before Dawn with the Sun shining around her head as a halo in mid September which is near the Jewish New Year of Rosh Hashanah. She announces the Fall Equinox and the harvest of grain and crops which nourishes our body
In October the sun is moving down her arm to conjunct with Spica every October 16th, In the western zodiac, the suns placement is Libra, but in the skies he shines in virgo and nourishes her sprig of golden wheat which brings to fulfillment this Bible verse in Jerusalem more than two thousand years ago ..
"Also, he took a loaf, gave thanks, broke it, and gave it to them, saying,"This means my body which is to be given in your behalf. Keep doing this in remembrance of me. Also the cup in the same way after they had the evening meal, he saying. "This cup means the new covenant by virtue of my blood, which is to be poured out in your behalf" Luke 22 : 19, 20
Under the sun, the wheat berries have grown to harvest and the stones would grind them into flour for the bread. The sun also ripened the grapes which was to be fermented into wine'
South east of Virgo lies the cup of Christ, the constellation of crater which is the Holy Grail of Bloodlines. We are the children of the Sun, and his bread is our body and his wine is our blood. How fitting it is that the ancient Holy land announces the new year (Rosh Hashanah.. Various dates in September) at harvest time when the Mother rises with the Sun shining as her halo and blending all faiths into the apotheosis monad of ONE

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
Tuesday, I introduced my blueprint for the Patriots offseason…if they re-sign Wes Welker. The following looks at the what the Patriots should do if they cannot sign their best wide receiver.
This scenario would not surprise me in the least.
It would be a strange coincidence that like Asante Samuel, Welker was allowed to walk free after failing to come up with a ball that would have clinched a Super Bowl win against the Giants. It would be just that, a coincidence. The Patriots had issues with Samuel during his time in New England. They never believed he was the player that Samuel thought he was. If you listen to some of the comments of former Patriots, Ty Law, Troy Brown and Rodney Harrison, they tend to agree with that assessment.
Welker has been the perfect Patriot, though, and the only questions with him are age and durability. He is in his 30's and he takes a weekly pounding because of his size and fearlessness over the middle. How much capital is he actually worth? Would that money be spend better elsewhere? The Patriots, unlike the Red Sox, don't care too much about fan PR so if Welker does go, don't expect too long an explanation. There will be an expectation that his departure will not make the Patriots worse on offense or less of a team. That certainly happened with Samuel, and they have yet to replace that position as the pass defense has gotten progressively worse since Samuel signed with Philadelphia.
Without Welker, the Patriots would have an extra $9 million to put towards upgrades. You would then expect either a Brandon Lloyd or Reggie Wayne (or perhaps both) with Julian Edelman moving into the slot. The Patriots could also draft a couple of wide receivers similar to drafting two tight ends in 2010. Michael Floyd of Notre Dame might be someone on their short list, as he is a big receiver who can stretch the field. The only problem is the Patriots' inability to get young receivers on the same page as Tom Brady, especially at this stage in Brady's career.
On defense, it could mean the Patriots make a run at Cortland Finnegan to team with Dashon Goldson or Michael Griffin in the secondary. They could also decide to keep Devin McCourty at safety with Patrick Chung and try to bring in Finnegan and maybe Jacksonville's William Middleton, whose career is trending upward.
The biggest problem with the Welker non-signing for me is the uncertainty behind it. Forget the media, forget Michael Felger calling the Patriots cheap, it's all about what improves this team over the next 2-4 years. What you don't want is Brady throwing to Chad Ochocinco and Juilan Edelman in 2012. The Patriots need to come into free agency swinging, like they did in 2003 (Rosevelt Colvin & Rodney Harrison) and 2007 (Donte Stallworth, Wes Welker via trade, Randy Moss via trade, Adalius Thomas, Sammy Morris).
With Welker gone, it makes sense to lock up Rob Gronkowski or you will pay 30% more like you did with Wilfolk and Mankins. The new CBA is in place, a slotted draft, the Patriots have to start locking up guy earlier. It just makes better business sense. This approach of Franchising and then paying, it costs you more in the end. I am not sure why an organization as smart as the Patriots don't grasp that sometimes.
The Patriots have a couple of avenues they can pursue. They have a talented team, an average AFC field to compete with and Tom Brady and Bill Belichick. Barring major injury to #12, they can get right back into the fight for 2012. They will need more weapons on both sides of the ball. Let's not forget they were a dropped pass from missing the big game altogether.
Adding Welker AND Lloyd makes the most sense. It also allows the Patriots to spend their draft picks on defense and perhaps one wide receiver. They can then fill in with some depth drafting in rounds 3-5. Last year, the Giants did little in free agency and got almost nothing from their draft. They somehow found a way to win a Super Bowl. The key difference was they had the pass rush in place, they had a veteran secondary and they had Eli Manning's late game magic to cover up a lot of mistakes.
If the Patriots try to depend once again on the brilliance of Tom Brady, Bill Belichick and street free agents, they will not be so lucky. NFL free agency is so much different than baseball. All the multi-year players will be locked up by end of March so teams can know what they want going into the draft. After the draft is where you see the one-year deals being offered. Also, it's a time for cuts, especially close to the June 1st deadline. So, this team will probably continue to add pieces right up to training camp. The Patriots are all or nothing usually in free agency, and by Feb. 29, you will know what direction they are headed.

TANE Mahuta, Maori god of the forest, lies on his back and digs his shoulders into his mother's body.
Propping his legs against his father, he pushes with all his might, gradually tearing his parents apart and flooding the world with light. Tane and his siblings, once sandwiched between their parents, are now free. The unfortunate parents - known by indigenous New Zealanders as the Earth and the sky - are separated forever.
So goes the Maori story of creation. Having learnt it in school, I'm excited about exploring Northland's Waipoua Forest, where Tane Mahuta's namesake - one of the world's oldest and biggest kauri trees and the largest in New Zealand - stands guard.
Pulling into the forest carpark, a three-hour drive north of Auckland, we brace ourselves against the cold and strike out on foot. Leaves crunch underfoot and our breath snakes in front of us in visible clouds as we make our way down the boardwalk, accompanied by chirping fantails.
The trees form a canopy above us, keeping the wintry sun from filtering through.
Luckily, we don't have to walk far - 200m down the track we round a bend and there he is, the god of the forest. We look up, and up and up, craning our necks in an effort to glimpse gnarled limbs that seem to scrape the clouds.
Estimated to be between 1250 and 2500 years old, Tane Mahuta is 51.5m high and has a girth of 13.77m. This giant among trees is so awe-inspiring that the other walkers around us fall into a respectful silence. The only sound is the distant chatter of birds.

Volleyball Hands South Carolina 3-0 Loss
Oct. 11, 2013
COLUMBIA, S.C. – Georgia handed the South Carolina Gamecocks a 3-0 (25-21, 25-20, 27-25) loss on Friday, Oct. 11 at the Volleyball Competition Facility in Columbia, S.C. With the win, the Bulldogs improve to 14-3 on the year, which matches last year's win total, and is now 4-1 in Southeastern Conference action. With the loss, South Carolina drops to 10-7 overall and 2-3 in the SEC.
"This was a great SEC road win," Head Coach Lizzy Stemke said. "We were really aggressive in our serve and pass game from the first point, which was a big goal of ours. We also did a really nice job of executing our game plan and keeping the pressure on. I am really proud of how we came back after getting behind in the third set. To be able to do that on the road in the SEC is hard to do and I am proud of this team and how they were able to do that."
Tirah Le'au led the team offensively with 13 kills and hit at a .348 clip. Brittany Northcutt added eight kills, followed by Lauren Teknipp with seven. Georgia was effective at the service line, finishing with 11 aces, led by Allison Summers with three. Maggie Baumert, Jasmine Eatmon and Chloe Buckendahl each registered two service aces. Kaylee Kehoe paced the offense with 25 assists. Elena Perri led the team with four blocks, followed by Le'au with three. Stacey Smith and Eatmon finished with two blocks each. Summers led all Bulldogs with 13 digs.
The teams kept the opening set close over the first several possessions, with the score tying four times before either team reached 10. With Georgia trailing 10-8 a Gamecock service error sparked a 4-0 run that included a pair of blocks by Smith and Perri that gave the Bulldogs a 12-10 lead. With the score tied at 15, Eatmon scored back-to-back points for Georgia on a kill and a service ace that helped the Bulldogs to an 18-15 lead that forced South Carolina to use a timeout. With Georgia holding a 22-20 advantage, Le'au scored the final three Bulldog points, including the last two on solo blocks, to seal Georgia's 25-21 set one win.
Using a 4-0 run that was highlighted by a pair of Le'au kills, the Bulldogs stormed out to a 10-4 lead in the second set that forced South Carolina to use a timeout. The Gamecocks came to within four at 11-7 with a service ace, but the Bulldogs answered with back-to-back points that gave them a 13-7. Georgia extended its lead to 18-12, but the Gamecocks fought back to make it a five-point set at 20-15. A 3-0 run by the Gamecocks caused Georgia to use a timeout at the 23-20 mark. Following the break, Georgia scored two-straight points on kills by Northcutt and Le'au that sealed the 25-20 set two win and gave the Bulldogs a 2-0 match lead.
Georgia opened up to a 4-2 lead in the third set before the Gamecocks tied the set at four. The Bulldogs responded by scoring the next three points to retake the lead at 7-4. Georgia held on to the lead until an error allowed South Carolina to tie the set at 11. The score knotted twice before the Gamecocks took a 16-13 lead. Georgia answered with a kill and an ace to make it a one-point set at 16-15. Trailing 18-15, Eatmon found the court for a kill that sparked a 3-0 run that included back-to-back Baumert aces that tied the set at 18 and forced South Carolina to use a timeout. The Gamecocks retook a two-point lead two plays later and maintained it until a Le'au kill and a Summers ace tied the set at 24 and cause the Gamecocks to call a timeout. With the score tied at 25, an Eatmon kill gave Georgia set point before a solo block by Le'au sealed the 27-25 set three win and gave Georgia a 3-0 win over South Carolina.
Georgia gets back in action on Sunday, Oct. 13 when it travels to Gainesville, Fla., to take on the No. 2 Florida Gators. The match will begin at 2 p.m., and will be televised on CSS.

First, without the title and your explanation, I would not have understood the relationship between the man and the statue. It's not self evident. More needs to be seen or something.
Second, the processing seems a bit harsh to me. Somewhere between the original and the final version would be more to my liking. It looks too contrasty, too over processed.
good luck and keep shooting!
{edit} P.S. I looked at the bigger version. You have good detail in the highlights and shadows, but it's still far to contrasty for me.
Thanks for the feedback. I went back to it, and tried something in between, but it is definitely less over-the-top.
FWIW, below is the original in color, cropped.
this black and white redo is going in the right direction the mad and statue are looking good but the background needs a bit of darkening to help pop out your subject

About Me Caregiver, Easy To Fold Updown, Elderly, Long Term User
Walker is lightweight and easy to fold up/down.Sturdy and durable. My dad weighs about 220 pounds but is comfortable and secure when sitting. It takes up much less room than the old rollator that he has.
Good wheels

The only drawback for me was the screws on top of where you rest your arm while sitting. I have a bad shoulder, and use the seat at places such as church, where there are no arm rests. My husband had to cover the screw area with tape to make it more comfortable for my arms.

Impressed with Quality
By Divenut

I suffer chronic back pain and can not walk or stand long. This Rollator allows me to move around with a sense of security knowing that I always have a seat on which to take a break. I was surprised how sturdy and well made it is given the price. I am 6'3" tall and close to 250 lbs. The handles are high enough that I don't have to bend to walk and the seat is plenty wide.

Just what I needed...
By Knote
from Miami, FL
I am happy with the Drive Rollator I received through BJ's .com. It is just what I needed to help me through rough times. I have RA and degenerative disc disease in my lower back. On occasion, it is impossible to walk for short or long distances without being in pain. I still enjoy my independence and getting out exercising by walking. This will enable me to still be active and enjoy concerts, walking in the park, and other events and not be limited by pain and discomfort. It is easy for me to fold up and put in the truck of the car. When I arrive at my destination, I just pop it out of the truck with little effort and I am on my way!

Washington, July 9 : Contact lens wearers hoping to combat discomfort caused by persistent dryness in the eyes may be happy to know that a possible solution of the problem is in their own bodies, according to a new study.
Findings from researchers at Hamilton's McMaster University show that a common fluid found in the body can be used as a natural moisturizing agent in the lenses.
This is a step up from the current wave of self-moisturizing contact lenses that use synthetic materials as a wetting agent to prevent eye dryness and increase wearer comfort.
The study showed that hyaluronic acid could be entrapped in existing contact lens material without affecting optical properties.
Researchers also found that using hyaluronic acid considerably reduces the build up of proteins, which can cloudy contact lens material, the cause of up to 30 per cent of all after-care visits by contact lens wearers to optometrists.
Hyaluronic acid is a natural polymer that acts to reduce friction. An average person weighing 70-kg has about 15 grams of hyaluronic acid in their body, one third of which is turned over daily.
The body uses hyaluronic acid to repair skin, provide resiliency in cartilage, and contribute to the growth and movement of cells, among other things.
It is also used by the medical profession to treat patients with dry eyes, in cataract surgery, and for other eye-related procedures.
Manufacturers have not yet produced contact lenses with hyaluronic acid, but researchers remain hopeful.
"We've shown that the process works," said co-author Heather Sheardown, professor of chemical engineering at McMaster and a member of the McMaster School of Biomedical Engineering.
"We're optimistic that a manufacturer will see the benefits of using this naturally based technology to provide contact lens wearers with greater comfort and convenience," Sheardown added.
The study was published in the journal Biomaterials.

VIKINGS RUNNING BACKS – Adrian Peterson, Jerome Felton, Matt Asiata, Joe Banyard, Zach Line, Bradley Randle.
TEAM NEED – The Vikings had a solid insurance policy in Toby Gerhart for four years and, now that he's gone, it's clear the Vikings need to add someone to fill in as the primary backup to Peterson. Asiata did a solid job in that role last year, but the devaluation of running backs in recent years could have a very talented player available to them in the third or fourth round. Whether they target a speed back for third-down/change-of-pace use or more of a workhorse that can be a 20-carry-a-game guy if A.P. gets injured, expect a draft pick to get used here – possibly as early as Day 2, but more likely Day 3.
POSITION OVERVIEW: Over the last few years, running back has become so de-emphasized in the college game, giving way to pass-happy shotgun attacks that use a rotation of running backs that the days of multiple backs going in the first round of the draft are over. Teams seem to feel much more comfortable waiting until the third or fourth round and taking specialist types. This year, there isn't a running back that grades out as a first rounder, but the second day could see a handful of back go. By Day 3, running backs will likely be flying off the board early. There isn't an Adrian Peterson in this year's draft, but there is a lot of Tier-2 talent available that could have the potential to have excellent NFL careers.
Carlos Hyde, Ohio State, 6-0, 230 – Fifth-year senior who spent 2009 at Union Military Academy…A two-year starter who finished with 3,198 rushing yards and 37 touchdowns. In two seasons as a full-timer, he carried 393 times for 2,491 yards and 31 touchdowns, while catching 24 passes for 198 yards and four more TDs…Suspended for the first three games of 2013 for his involvement in an assault in July of that year…In just 11 games (nine starts) in 2013, he rushed 208 times for 1,521 yards and 15 TDs…The ideal combination of size and power…Rarely brought down by one tackler and always fights for the extra yard…Wasn't overused in college and hasn't been worn out…Has good footwork for a player his size and has the burst to get to the edge…Doesn't have the greatest conditioning and will wear down at times…Seen by some as a one-trick pony between the tackles…Doesn't have a second gear to blow past defenders downfield…Not a receiving threat (34 catches in 41 games)…Suffered a hamstring injury on his first 40 run and it impacted his results, running a woeful 4.61 40 with 19 reps of 225 pounds, a 34½-inch vertical jump and a 9-6 broad jump. PROJECTION: Hyde is viewed as the top running back in the draft, but, thanks to the degenerating of RB value, he won't come off the board until the second round at the earliest.
Bishop Sankey, Washington, 5-9½, 209 – Third-year junior…Two-year starter who rushed 616 times for 3,309 yards and 36 touchdowns while catching 61 passes for passes for 553 yards and one TD…Broke Corey Dillon's school record for rushing yards in a season with 1,870 in 2013…A hard worker who proved he can be the focal point of an offense…Has good vision and consistently picks the right hole to attack…Versatile as both a running and receiving threat…Has excellent lateral movement and has a good stop-and-go jump cut…Doesn't have bulk strength to be a consistently effective goal-line runner…Had a heavy workload the last two years, which will be a concern for some teams…Needs to work on his pass protection because he can get pushed backward too often or dives at a defender's knees and often missed….Doesn't have ideal balance and gets tripped up too easily…Ran a 4.51 40 with 26 reps, a 35½-inch vertical jump and a 10-6 broad jump. PROJECTION: He has size limitations, but in the current NFL, speed backs and change-of-pace backs can be difference-makers. Like Giovani Bernard last year, in the right situation, he could get a lot of action.
Tre Mason, Auburn, 5-8½, 207 – Third-year junior…Two year starter who rushed 478 times for 2,818 yards and 31 touchdowns in that span… Finished sixth in the Heisman balloting last year after rushing 317 times for 1,816 yards and 23 touchdowns…Is the son of Vincent Mason, who was a member of the legendary hip-hop group "De La Soul"…Will be 21 during his rookie season…Broke Bo Jackson's single-season rushing record on his last carry of the BCS Championship Game…Extremely powerful lower body and may be the best between-the-tackles runner in the draft…A decisive runner who is a one-cut, hit-the-hole runner…Is especially effective in third-and-short and goal-line situations…Has decent speed and makes the most out of just about every carry, always pulling forward to gain the extra yard…Shorter than prototype RBs…Wasn't used much in the passing game, catching just 19 passes in 38 career games…Doesn't have an elite change of pace or second gear in the open field and will get caught from the side or from behind…Durability will be a question because he has dealt with nagging injuries in each of his two seasons as a starter…Didn't lift at the Combine because of a left wrist injury, but ran a 4.45 40 with a 38½-inch vertical jump and a 10-6 broad jump. PROJECTION: He resembles a younger version of Ray Rice and will likely go in the second or third round, but his lack of use in the passing game may serve as a strike against him and drop his value somewhat.
Ka'Deem Carey, Arizona, 5-9½, 207 – Third-year junior…Two-year starter who had 652 carries for 3,814 yards and 42 touchdowns and caught 62 passes for 476 yards and two TDs in that span…Was arrested for misdemeanor assault and disorderly contact with his pregnant ex-girlfriend in December 2012, was kicked out of an Arizona basketball game after an altercation with staff and police and was suspended for the 2013 season opener for a violation of team policy…Extremely powerful runner who can be a workhorse for an offense…Has good field vision and consistently hits the hole decisively…An excellent blocker in pass pro duty…Has natural hands and is a reliable receiver…Ran extremely slow 40 times at the Combine and doesn't have a second gear to accelerate through the hole…Is a head-strong runner who runs too high and exposes himself to too many "kill shot" hits…Had 820 career touches – most in the last two years – so durability will be a concern long-term…Has some off-field issues that will have teams putting red flags on him…Ran a 4.69 40 at the Combine with 19 reps of 225 pounds, a 32½-inch vertical jump and a 9-7 board jump. PROJECTION: Few backs will have as varied a ranking as Carey. Some may view him a second- or third-round prospect, but, given his lackluster Combine performance and potential red flags, he could easily get drafted after some backs we have ranked below him. It wouldn't be a surprise if he's on the board at the start of Day 3.
Jeremy Hill, LSU, 6-0¾, 233 – Third-year sophomore…In two seasons, he ran 345 times for 2,156 yards and 28 touchdowns and caught 26 passes for 254 yards…Sat out the 2011 season after being arrested for sexual assault after a relationship with a minor and was arrested for battery after a bar fight near campus…He is currently on probation in Louisiana until July 2015…First-team All-SEC in 2013 after rushing 203 times for 1,401 yards and 16 TDs and catching 18 passes for 181 yards…A powerfully built downhill runner who rarely goes down on first contact…Has big hands and long arms to keep defenders away from his body…Runs with authority when he makes his cut and attacks the hole…Has good speed for a player his size when he gets in the open field…Has a lot of red flags that will scare off some teams…Can be too impatient and won't wait for a hole to develop, instead running up the backs of his blockers…Has never been a full-time back, playing in a rotation for the Tigers…Runs a little too upright and may have fumbling concerns moving forward…Ran a 4.59 40 at the Combine with 20 reps, a 29-inch vertical jump and a 9-5 broad jump. PROJECTION: A big back with prototype size to be a power runner in the NFL, teams will need to be convinced that he has put his problems behind him. If he can get his head on straight and focus on football, he could be a steal-of-the-draft candidate in the fourth-round range. His athletic upside and lack of tread off the tires (just 371 career touches) could be enough to get him drafted in the third round.
Dri Archer, Kent State, 5-7¾, 173 – Fifth-year senior who missed the 2011 season after being ruled academically ineligible…Finished his career with 325 carries for 2,342 yards (a whopping 7.2-yard average) and 24 touchdowns and caught 99 passes for 1,194 yards and 12 more TDs…Was a valued return man who returned 51 kickoffs, including four for TDs…Has incredible speed, can create mismatches and can take any play to the house…Is a dual threat as both a runner and receiver…Can stop and start on a dime and can get to full speed in just a couple of strides…Has excellent instincts in predicting where the seams will be and hits the open field in the blink of an eye…Extremely undersized with sub-par lower-body strength…Split time at wide receiver and running back and never got the chance to perfect either element of his game…A willing blocker, but will get overwhelmed…When defenders get their hands on him, he typically goes down…Ran a sparkling 4.16 40 at the Combine with 20 reps, a 38-inch vertical jump and a 10-2 broad jump. PROJECTION: He was one of the Combine stars and vaulted himself into Day 2 consideration. But, like Darren Sproles and Dexter McCluster, he will likely be a part-time player, which could drop his stock to a premium pick early on Day 3. In the right offense, he could be a huge contributor for an offense like they run in Denver, New England and Seattle.
De'Anthony Thomas, Oregon, 5-8¾, 174 – Third-year junior…Started just 19 of 37 career games, finishing his career with 243 rushes for 1,890 yards (a 7.8-yard average) and 26 touchdowns, while catching 113 passes for 1,296 yards and 15 TDs, 73 kickoff returns for 1,885 yards (25.8-yard average) and four touchdowns, and 16 punt returns for 274 yards and one TD…Pac-12 Freshman of the Year in 2011…Competed on the Ducks track team, running the 100 meters in 10.31 second and the 200 meters in 21.17 seconds…Has incredible quickness, agility and top-end speed…Reaches top speed very quickly and had the extra gear to run away from defenders…Has excellent field vision…Is a versatile weapon who makes big plays as a rusher, receiver and return man…Very undersized and likely will have to be limited to the number of plays he's on the field…Doesn't have a strong upper or lower body (see below) and gets wrapped up and brought down too easily once a defender makes contact…Has significant red flags concerning his work ethic and passion for the game – scouts claim he has a sense of entitlement because his natural gifts haven't forced him to commit to a strong work ethic…Ran a 4.43 40 at the Combine with just eight reps of 225 pounds (one of the worst of anyone who lifted), with a 32-inch vertical jump and a 10-4 broad jump. PROJECTION: Like Archer, he is an undersized speed merchant who could make an immediate impact. But his lack of bulk strength and power and the red flags concerning his commitment to the NFL will likely leave him on the board until early in the third day of the draft.
Charles Sims, West Virginia, 6-0, 214 – Fifth-year senior…Missed the 2010 season after being ruled ineligible…Played three seasons with Houston, rushing 384 times for 2,370 yards and 29 touchdowns and caught 158 passes for 1,707 yards and eight touchdowns…Transferred to West Virginia, where he rushed 208 times for 1,095 yards and 11 touchdowns and caught 45 passes for 401 yards and three TDs…Has the ideal combination of size, muscle mass and speed…Has excellent acceleration into the hole and out of his cuts…Is arguably the best receiver of this year's RB class and his production is hard to ignore…Durability is a concern because he has battled injuries during his career and had a whopping 795 offensive touches, which scares off some teams…Doesn't run with great balance or power and gets taken down easier than he should…Is a high-cut runner who exposes the ball too often and has a style that lends itself to fumbling in the NFL…Ran a 4.46 40 at the Combine with 17 reps, a 37½-inch vertical jump and a 10-6 broad jump. PROJECTION: A fifth-year senior who was allowed to play last year because he was in graduate school, Sims is his own worst enemy on draft day. He has the talent to be a solid pro, but he's got a lot of wear on his body and will likely be a good value on the third day of the draft.
Andre Williams, Boston College, 5-11½, 230 – Fourth-year senior…Didn't become a full-time starter until last season, but exploded – rushing 355 times for 2,177 yards and 18 touchdowns and becoming a finalist for the Heisman Trophy…Finished his career at BC with 704 carries for 3,739 yards and 28 touchdowns…A first-team All-America in 2013 and won the Doak Walker Award, given annually to college football's top running back…A team leader who earned the respect of everyone in the program…Has a strong lower body and can gain extra yards after contact and is never brought down by arm tackles…Has good build-up speed and is dangerous once he gets in the open field…Is almost useless in the passing game – he caught just 10 passes in his career and none in his breakout 2013 season…Durability will be a concern because he missed considerable time in 2011 with an abdominal injury and 2012 with a shoulder injury that is still a problem (see below)…Doesn't have great initial burst and needs room to pick up speed…Didn't lift at the Combine after being given a medical exclusion for an injured left shoulder, but ran a 4.50 40 with a 38-inch vertical jump and a 10-9 broad jump. PROJECTION: Williams is a good prospect, but he is a two-down player with limited speed and no suddenness or burst. Players like that are typically available well into the third day of the draft.
Devonta Freeman, Florida State, 5-8¼, 206 – Third-year junior…Was a part-time starter in both 2011-12 before becoming full-time and finished his career with 404 carries for 2,255 yards and 30 touchdowns, while catching 47 passes for 475 yards and one TD…A skilled player with the ability to be a very good pro because he is a tireless worker who puts the team first and will be an ideal teammate…Plays with a mean streak and will often initiate contact and keep his legs churning…Has good acceleration and gets to top speed quickly…He isn't an elite athlete and was consistently near the bottom in several categories for his position at the Combine…Doesn't have a frame that can add much weight and has dealt with more than one back injury, but has played through the pain…Doesn't have the size or lower-body strength to be a power running at the next level…Chose not to lift at the Combine, but ran a 4.51 40 with a 31½-inch vertical jump and a 9-10 broad jump. PROJECTION: An undersized player who may get lost in the shuffle thanks to a poor showing at the Combine and an existing history of back injuries. He was viewed as a potential late Day 2 prospect before the Combine, but more likely he will still be on the board into Day 3.
Lache Seastrunk, Baylor, 5-9½, 201
Storm Johnson, Central Florida, 5-11¾, 209
