A modern classic for a nice price.
The Takamine EF340SCGN Antique Acoustic-Electric Guitar brings the build quality and performance capability of Takamine professional series guitars to a whole new level of affordability. Built on the popular cutaway dreadnought platform, this guitar starts with a solid cedar top for great warm vintage tone right out of the box.
The EF340SCGN guitar's back and sides are mahogany with multi-ply bindings on the edges to protect it from the bumps and bruises that a guitar will get from day-to-day use, especially when you are out on stage. The neck is mahogany, with a rosewood fretboard, which holds 20 highly polished nickel-silver frets. The neck is supported by a dual-action tension rod, which can be used to keep your neck in perfect relief no matter what environmental forces try to act on your Takamine guitar. The tuning machines are chrome and of the finest quality for precision tuning. At the heart of every Takamine professional series guitar is a state-of-the-art electronics system, which starts with a palathetic pickup built into the bridge, and ends with the Takamine preamp system.
The CT-4B analog solid-state preamp features three bands of EQ, and a volume control. Tone shaping is done very easily with a user-friendly graphic EQ, with bass, midrange and treble slide controls. The volume is also on a slider. Another great feature on this preamp is the built-in chromatic tuner. The tuner on button also acts as a mute control for silent onstage tuning. It is also incredibly useful for non-standard and open tunings. The EF340SCGN dreadnought cutaway guitar comes out of the box looking and feeling like a well-worn old friend. The antique stain and the light satin finish give it that pure vintage feel and vibe.

Comments about Takamine EF340SCGN Dreadnought Antique Acoustic-Electric Guitar:
My Daughter has a Taylor 414 , she is a recording artist and when she played my Takamine she also loved the way it sounds and plays. Very happy with this guitar.
Great looking guitar. I was looking for a certain sound that wasn't bright, more on a deep sound.
Happy about everything about this guitar. Right out of the box. No setup needed.
I think it is a very good guitar for the money. It is made in Japan and inspected in the USA by Kaman
Comments about Takamine EF340SCGN Dreadnought Antique Acoustic-Electric Guitar:
I picked one of these up last week and was happy with the sound quality. It plays well right out of the box.I have been playing guitar since I was 13 yrs old and I am 54 yrs old now. I have tried other high end acoustics already and feel this is the best one for the money. I had a Martin D 35 that sounded great but I had problems playing it because of the thinner neck. The neck on this guitar just seems to be perfect for me. I am not one for electric pre amps I feel they change the natural sound of the guitar. I will most likely buy a Sunrise pick up in the future. But over all the guitar sounds great. the open chords ring.If you are into finger picking maybe you should look elsewhere. The dreadnought body takes me back to the 60s & 70s sound that I love. I am happy with this guitar and havent picked up my Strat in about a week
Comments about Takamine EF340SCGN Dreadnought Antique Acoustic-Electric Guitar:
Great guitar! Easy to play and has a Martin sound without the Martin Price. Cedar top has a warm and full sound due to the grain pattern. An old time look , but a new time feel. The price is to low for a guitar of this caliber. Very stage worthy.
- The Sound I Wanted

Comments about Takamine EF340SCGN Dreadnought Antique Acoustic-Electric Guitar:
I play a blues style and this guitar has a better bottom ending sound than the Taylor's and Martins's which are more of a bright sound.
I love the pre amp. good strong sound when plugged in.
Comments about Takamine EF340SCGN Dreadnought Antique Acoustic-Electric Guitar:
Received my Takamine EF340SCGN last week. Wonderful sound and tone, and very easy to play. Beautiful to look at, too! The fret ends and the nut are a little sharp, but it's a minor fix, and for the price this is a wonderful guitar.
Comments about Takamine EF340SCGN Dreadnought Antique Acoustic-Electric Guitar:
Just recently purchased this guitar and what a joy it has been since I took this guitar out of its top shelf case. Additionally I purchased a Roland AC-33 to play this beauty through. Never could I have dreamed the quality of sound this combination would be capable of making. With Wide Chorus selected and taking the Lt.& Rt. Line outs from the AC-33 and connecting to my Stereo PA creates the highest quality Electric Acoustic sound I have ever experienced at half the cost of a Taylor or Martin of the same quality. Takamine has hit a home run with this guitar. Thank you!!
- Beautiful Look And Sound
- Plays Very Easy

text: An invasive, surgical procedure performed to decompress a spinal nerve root. The procedure involves exposing the affected vertebra and removing one or both facet joints that are rubbing against the nerve. Each vertebra contains two facet joints that allow for spine mobility. They help a person bend forward, stand straight, and rotate left and right. Serious injuries to the spine and age-related degenerative disorders are the main causes of facet problems. If cartilage tissue around the joints erodes or tears, the bones may rub together and compress underlying nerves. The goal of facetectomy is to completely remove one or more facets in order to preserve nerve functioning.

OMG!! Chris Brown Is Arrested Again?!
Chris Brown is in jail and is being held without bail. in L.A. The arrest was made at 2 p.m. PT on a warrant relating to a probation violation in his 2009 conviction for assaulting Rihanna.
According to TMZ, he was kicked out of the rehab center in Malibu where he has been undergoing court-ordered treatment as part of his probation in that case, and that this led to the arrest.
Chris was ejected Friday morning for violating "internal rules," but they won't say which rules he violated. It is clear that it did not involve drugs or violence, and another source added that, while the singer was caught having "an inappropriate relationship" with a female employee earlier in the month, it wasn't that infraction that resulted in him being ejected.
Brown had been in the rehab center for four months. Although he had completed an initially-mandated 90 days in the center, earlier this month he was ordered by a judge to remain there for an additional two months while his Washington, D.C assault case is pending. That case is slated to go to trial next month.
He was previously dismissed from a different facility for throwing a rock at a window in his mother's car.
Keep Chris Brown in your prayers.

Portfolio – http://futuretomorrow.net Quote – See comment no.2 Revisions – See question no.5 and comment no.2 Timeline – See question no.5
1. How important is it to your client that the site be responsive? 2. What makes your client's staffing agency different from other staffing agencies? Is it a niche approach to the current market? 3. As of this response the onward healthcare site URL doesn't resolve? 4. Is Onward Healthcare solely an example of a site the client likes or is this also an example of a major competitor? 5. What's the time frame for the project? That would heavily dictate whether a. two designs are possible and b. how many rounds should be allotted. 6. Will there be completed wireframes submitted to the chosen designer or are your clients sketches literally all they see belonging to each page? The current sketches are missing significant details and can't be complete based on over 6yrs experience with recruiters and their websites. 7. Where will the stock photography come from for use in the designs? Is there a stock photography budget given to the designer? 8. Should the designs consider the use of Google Fonts or some other custom font implementation? 9. In addition to your clients logo and current company status do they already have defined fonts in use? If Yes what are they? 10. Is it me or is your clients sketches missing pages? Where is the "current jobs" section in his designs? Where and how does he post jobs? Is this where keeping WordPress in mind comes into play?
1. I don't sell themes, designs, plugins or anything else in the Envato networks or elsewhere so reselling the design is not an option and ethically something I would not do. If you need to resell ideas vs creating a new specific one for each client based on their specific need and ask you're in a world of hurt.
2. Delivering more than 1 design for $500 and offering multiple rounds is a tough one. I can definitely come up with something much better than a client can since the vast majority have zero design experience. I've been doing multidisciplinary design for 14yrs. Please see my portfolio.
3. I only work with milestones and a 25% deposit upfront. It's the fairest way for clients and if they don't like what they're seeing they can simply pay for the milestone that's been reached, if any and terminate the working relationship.
Overall I'm interested in this but need more details. Please contact me via the form on my website. Thanks.
Best, Steve

Our furmom can be pretty strange at times. For one thing, she loves sitting in this big box of water. Sometimes she sits there for a long time. (shudder) We tried dipping our paws into the water. It was wet. No, thanks.
Then tonight, when she got out of the water, she started rubbing her legs with a metal thing. She was taking off her fur! We couldn't believe it. Doesn't she know that the fur protects her skin and keeps her warm? It was so strange. I guess we'll have to start calling her our furless mom. At least she didn't take the long fur off her head!
Helping our furmom with her chores is such fun! This evening she was putting clean sheets on the futon. We sat right in the middle of the futon, where we can get the best view of the way she unfolds the sheets so they become really large. Sometimes we get covered up by a sheet, and then we can play hide-and-seek with our furmom. Even though she can't see us, she always seems to know where to find us.
After that, she got out the big machine that looks like a toy. It's not, though. It makes a lot of noise and blows out hot air. It's scary! It also has a long hose with a stick on the end. That would be kind of fun to chase, but we're afraid of the machine, so we just stay away when she's moving the hose and the stick. Once the hose was lying for a long time on the floor making a circle. It was so cozy that we curled up inside and went to sleep. We like sleeping in anything that makes a circle.
Next, she put some clothes in the big white box that we sometimes sit on. We explored the inside of the box a little, and, with so many soft clothes, it looked like a really comfortable place to sleep. In fact, we thought our furmom was making another hiding place just for us. But then the box started to shake and water started pouring out. We usually like water, but we don't like getting wet, and the shaking scared us, so we jumped out.
Then we heard a swishing sound, so we went into the livingroom to see what was happening. Our furmom was pushing a cloth around on the top of a table. That looked like fun and something we could help with, so we jumped up on the table and started chasing the cloth around. If she wants a clean table top, we can do better than that silly little cloth. Besides, we also decorate the surface with cute little paw prints.
A while later, the white box made some beeping sounds, the really fun part began because she took the clothes out and hung them up for us to play with. The socks are especially fun because we can reach them by standing on the white box. We couldn't do that when we were smaller, and it drove us crazy to watch them dangling there. However, now we can easily hit them, and sometimes we make them fall down.
Finally, our furmom took a bath. That's our favorite time. First, she empties the big tub. We could spend hours watching the swirling movement of water flowing across the floor and down the drain. It also makes an exciting gurgling noise. Then more water comes out of this big silver tube. We love trying to take drinks from the silver tube in the sink, but we have to be careful about this one because it's really hot. When she gets in the tub, we sometimes walk along the edge. If we're feeling really brave, we dip a paw into the water. A couple times, though, each of us has lost his balance and our back legs ended up slipping into the water. Although water is pleasant to watch, we don't like getting wet! This evening, we just sat by the tub while our furmom sat in the tub reading. She seemed very relaxed, which made us feel very peaceful.
Later, when she puts the cover over the tub and our special rug, we're going to sleep there. It'll be nice if we can have dreams about the swirling water, but not nightmares of the big noisy machine with the hot air. Tomorrow, we may find some new ways to help our furmom with other chores, like when she rubs the dishes with a cloth and water to clean them (even though we try to show that our tongues are more effective), or makes loud, quick sounds and movements with a knife and vegetables (and we can play with pieces that fall on the floor)! If we can sneak into the closet when she's not looking, maybe we can even help her rearrange her clothes by pulling them down. Now that would really be fun!
Written by Mac & Tippy's furmom: My little ones are so active that I decided to get a climbing tree for them (in addition to Amanda's perch - see http://www.ca-in-sapporo.com/cats/perch.html). I saw one at the pet store that's a bit pricey, but since I'm not doing any traveling during the holiday season, I thought I'd splurge. It's coming tomorrow morning, and I can hardly wait. Crazy, isn't it? All excited about a Christmas present for cats. It's more like a Christmas present for me!
While I was there, I decided to buy a couple little Santa hats to make a Christmas photo. Actually, I can't stand it when people buys little clothes to dress their animals in, but here I am - doing the same thing! The problem at the store was that they only had one Santa hat, and it was a display hat. The other was a "reindeer Santa hat" (well, that's the best way I can describe it). The reindeer hat came with a set, again a bit pricey. If only my cats weren't so cute. I decided to get it, and then talked the clerks into selling me the Santa hat, explaining that I have two kittens, and they're going to be bigger and not as cute next year. (Mind you, I'm doing all of this in Japanese.)
Now how I'm going to get them to pose in their Santa hats is another question. You'll find out soon if I succeed!

Photo taken on Sept. 22, 2013 shows the Russian embassy to Syria in Damascus, capital of Syria. A mortar shell slammed the Russian embassy in Syria's capital Damascus on Sunday. (Xinhua/Zhang NaiJie)
BEIJING, (Xinhua): Three diplomats were injured in a mortar shell targeting the Russian embassy in Damascus on Sunday as Syria promptly handed over a preliminary report of its chemical weapons in fulfillment of its commitment made earlier.
In the mortar attack, one shell was fired by militants in the hotspot district of Brazeh onto the Russian embassy compound.
Brazeh has been a scene of fierce clashes raging on for days between the rebels and the Syrian government army.
"Three members of the embassy's staff received wounds not threatening their lives," the Russian foreign ministry said in a statement released in Moscow.
An investigation is underway and additional steps are being taken with the help of the Syrian side to tighten security of the Russian diplomatic mission, it noted.
The Russian embassy in Damascus has been targeted several times by the opposition militants who are trying to overthrow Assad's government.
Roughly one hour before the attack, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said in Moscow that his country was ready to send military observers to safeguard the experts and process of the destruction of Syria's chemical weapon stockpiles.
He said Russia doesn't intend to send a full military contingent, adding it has proposed an international presence on all spots where experts will work in Syria.
In The Hague, the Organization of Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) said Syria handed over a preliminary report of its chemical weapons on Saturday.
The OPCW, a watchdog that polices the Chemical Weapon Convention banning the production, stockpiling and use of chemical weapons, has developed a global network with several prominent laboratories since its founding in 1997.
Syria is officially to become an OPCW member on Oct. 14. The organization, supervising the destruction of Assad's chemical arsenal, said the report has been reviewed by its verification teams, without giving further details.
Syria staved off a limited airstrike of the U.S. by committing itself to disclosing and destroying its chemical weapons, with the help of an agreement brokered by the United States and Russia in Geneva last week, which sets a timetable for the Assad government to make public its chemical weapons arsenal by Saturday.
But U.S. President Barack Obama, who blamed the Syrian government for using chemical weapons, said a military option is still on the table should Assad play stalling tactics.
In the latest interview with Fox News of the United States, Assad stressed commitment to the chemical weapon treaty, saying that it would cost 1 billion U.S. dollars and take roughly one year to destroy his country's chemical weapon stockpiles.
Damascus has rejected Washington's accusation that the government troops gassed civilians with nerve agents during an attack on Aug. 21 near Damascus. Pointing finger at the rebels, the Syrian government said it has evidence that could incriminate them.

Above, a cover illo from the zine I sold at MoCCA. I was looking at a lot of pictures from The General while drawing it -- Buster Keaton's long black hair was all, like, fuckin' luxurious and shit.
And now, have a few con sketches that I did and actually remembered to (sloppily) document.
Thanks to everyone who stopped by our table. A lot of familiar faces, a lot of new friends. And if you ordered postcards from me, I promise the second half are going out in a few days! I'm going up to NYC again tomorrow to start looking for an apartment, but as soon as I'm back, I'll pack and label the rest to ship out. Besides, I probably wouldn't get these addresses right when I've got moving anxiety screaming through my skull.
I'll leave you with this tattoo from a gent named Toni from Sweden. Pretty cool, man. Pret-ty cool.

The Fears of Henry IV: The Life of England's Self-Made King
Maurice Keen writes:
Mortimer's account of Henry's upbringing and early career is full and perceptive. His father ensured that he knew the courtly manners and style befitting a nobleman of his standing, and he showed early skill in the aristocratically fashionable sport of jousting. He was a serious reader, with whom 'men of great literary attainments' enjoyed conversing, according to Capgrave's De Illustribus Henricis, and had a great love of music: he possessed a cither and recorder, and was probably the composer of two early pieces of polyphony. This passion he shared with his first wife, Mary, whom he married when she was 11 and he 13. Their relationship grew to be one of real affection, and she bore him four sons and two daughters before her death in 1394; she also, as an heiress of Bohun, brought estates that gave him substantial independent wealth. This meant that when Henry came into his vast ducal inheritance of Lancaster, he would possess land-based power far superior to that of any other English peer, and second only to the king's.

if it was really important wouldn't we organize the vote as if it were? if it was really important then a system where anyone that did not vote was fined would seem to me to be socially beneficial.evidently some folks (here) think that some folks are unworthy of having a vote or having their vote counted
I voted last week. Can I vote again tomorrow? :? :-D
so my hypothesis is correct (via Kathyp and Iddee prior comments) that some folks really don't believe in democracy? inevitable disqualifying this or that group becomes an essential part of maintaining control and power for a constantly shrinking base.
and it hasn't always been like that. i have voted in several states. back in the day, you not only had to show some id, but you had to prove you lived in the precinct you were voting in. usually something like a drivers license and a utility bill were good.
most of your post is the usual crap
most time I simply toss out difficult question which some folks that choose to be misinformed

Wow! I'm so excited! I love Christmas! Last year I got tons of chewies and treats, and I can't wait to see what under the tree for me this year! I hope it's that stuffed squirrel I have been wanting!
I have always wanted something else....and I'll have to explain it a little before I tell you what it is. As you may have noticed, I'm a full bred pit bull, and sometimes people are afraid of me. But I'm here to tell you I'm nothing to be afraid of...I love everybody! My brother and sister and my best buds and mommy and daddy and trained me and raised me so well. I am really easy to train, and mommy and daddy have given me a loving home! My Christmas wish is that humans saw me for what I really am...not what some newscast has said about another dog. Just because I'm a pit bull doesn't mean I'm vicious or bad. I think any dog can be bad if they aren't trained. My other Christmas wish is that people would really consider pit bulls as pets. When raised in a loving, disciplined home, pits can be the best dogs ever! Just look at me! I rarely bark, I am very loyal, I love my siblings, I don't really shed, I heal very quickly and rarely get fleas. I am also very affectionate, so watch out if you don't like being licked or loved on...I'm a pro at it!
Well, better go...there's a giant Kong over there with my name on it. Woof!

Pregnancy 2.0 Party
Lucky me I am about to have my second child, a boy. This is like a whole new experience again, even though I have a daughter whom just turned 5, going back to diapers, bottles and new things I did not have before is very exciting. I do not have that many hand me downs and would have purchase a few of the bigger ticket items such as a car seat and a stroller. As I just started to look at all of the new design strollers available, along came an invitation to participate in the Pregnancy 2.0 opportunity, hosting MommyParties. This was a wonderful chance to see what was new and narrow then some of the products, not to mention sharing them with some of my mom friends.
The first thing I did was set a date with 8 of my friends, a theme of "Fun-Do" breakfast fondue party letting them know they will be about to look at some new products, test out and take away a goodie bag. The goodie bags had Spry Gum, Kids Xclear Saline Nasal Spray with Xylitol, KID'S Spry Tooth Gel, and Xclear coupons with brochures, Britax brochures of the B-Agile Stroller/B-Safe Infant Car Seat & B-Safe Baby Carrier. Rashti & Rashti Snuggle Buddy gave me two very cute plush toys, one for a give away and the other for me to keep. Baby Plus Prenatal Educational System sent me their product to try out while I am pregnant, cannot wait to test drive that! I also received a Britax B-Agile Stroller, B-Safe Infant Car seat and B-Safe Infant Carrier. All were going to be test run at my party.
Guests arriving to the party immediately migrated over to the Britax B-Agile Stroller, all commenting on how it looked very easy to manuver, wheels looked sturdy and the design was very stylish. I also pointed out how light the stroller was, my old one seemed to have weighed twice as much! We were lucky to have a few small children to test it out, buckled them in, "test drove" them around the house and one child even fell asleep in! Could it have been that comfortable or was it just nap time? I would say the comfort of it was more of the of the case. The B-Safe Infant Car seat was easy to attach and work with, no complaints there. The next test product was the Britax B-Safe Baby Carrier, we all had experience with having baby carriers and shared stories of use. The one point that seemed to stand out was the support of the carrier with the back straps, much more advanced than what we had. It was padded, comfortable and soft. Britax has done it again, superior products for babies beyond just the car seat.

Muddy River
At first glance, one would think you are standing on the banks of the Mississippi River. This river is above the Mason-Dixon line, the Connecticut River right after Hurrican Irene. I have never seen it so brown, muddy and swirling like chocolate milk not mixed thoroughly. The speed was incredible with so much water rushing down from up north. We saw huge trees, logs and docks floating by.

Hurrican Irene
I just received cable, internet, phone, cell phone and power access as of this morning. We have been without since Sunday night 7pm. I am pretty sure they turned us off at that time since the storm had already passed. We were very lucky in that we had a generator to run the water pump and lights. We have had it for about 10 years now and this was the first time we fired it up.
The damage was very minimal to our property, small sticks down and that was about it. I did not get out about town until Tuesday where I saw more damage around us. Our Town Hall has only one phone line and no internet access. The river is very high, very muddy and a lot of debris floating down very fast(I will post a picture later). Most of our town still does not have power. What surprised me the most is that lack of commuication. After the storm, we had nothing. Mail still came which amazed me but cell towers were out. Did we learn anything from Katrina when it comes to communication? It does now seem like it. How did everyone else fare?

Glucose Results
Well my results came in exactly what I thought it would be, failed the test, not even a border line. I am officially with Gestational Diabetes and now I get to go to the nutrionalist for a lecture on keeping my sugar levels under control, check my blood three times a day and keep a log. When does the fun begin?
Tuesday, February 22, 2011
Next test....
I had the next round of testing which was the Glucose test. This is the test that I was not looking forward to as you have to drink a sweet drink, sit for an hour and have blood drawn. I was given a choice of fruit punch or orange, took the orange since the fruit punch is absolutely disgusting, not that the orange is any better. I just think of tang versus Hawaiian Punch, the tang is something you generally have not mixed with alcohol in some point of your life time.
The results should be in very quickly, I am keeping my fingers crossed as I have already had gestation diabetes in my previous pregnancy, but the odds are against me.

The Summit Club
1901 Sixth Avenue North
Featured Speakers:
Hadley P. Arkes
- Professor Hadley Arkes, Amherst College, and Senior Fellow, Ethics and Public Policy Center
Professor Arkes, one of this era's foremost proponents of natural‐law jurisprudence, will explore the methodological tensions that can exist among judicial "conservatives." Modern judicial conservatism is often associated with judicial restraint and a text‐first (or only) approach to judging. Professor Arkes will make the "conservative" case that it is sometimes necessary to move beyond the plain constitutional text and to make the appeal to those first (i.e., natural‐law) principles that lie behind the words – particularly as we try to apply the Constitution to new cases and problems as they arise in modern society.
Cost: $15 for lunch (Please pay at the door and make checks payable to "The Federalist Society")
RSVP by Friday, March 23, 2011, to Carolyn Adkins at firstname.lastname@example.com, (205) 521‐8687.

So last night I'm getting ready to build bump stop mounts decide to put the shocks in just to make sure everything is going to work out at full bump. So I get to full bump height and I'm not even close to bottoming the shocks out
. I double check my 23.5" compressed thats written on my bumper, yeah not so much. It's 21.05" from SAW's website, 23.5" is for the shocks I sold off
. So now I have to redo my shock mounts on my coilover hoops
How I missed that, I haven't a clue.
So on the passenger side I can get 5.5-6" of uptravel, on the drivers side I can only get 4-4.5" of uptravel before running into my track bar bracket. I took it off and modified it once already to get another 1/2" of travel. Tonight I'm going to cut it another 1/4" which may get me to 5"(not 1:1
If I can't get there, is there any reason I shouldn't run my bump stops at different heights on the drivers side and passenger side?
The only thing that holds me up on the drivers sides is steering hard to the drivers side. The tie rod contacts the bracket. If the wheels are straight it clears no issues. You can see what I'm dealing with here, this is with the wheel turned until contact, wheels straight, it clears:
From the passenger side:
1/2" of shock until bottoming out on the passenger side, shock brackets need to move a little, nothing major on that side:
Tucks up pretty well but the exhaust/front driveshaft is going to bring the suck:
Progress in the wrong direction

Noted book author and marketing expert Seth Godin wrote a post recently, Advice for Authors part 1 and 2. If you are an aspiring book author it is certainly a post worth reading.
He writes, "Blog mentions, on the other hand, matter a lot."
He does not mention podcasts. I am not sure how much podcasts matter for authors and book sales. I can tell you that Amazon affiliate sales (through my links) of books by authors interviewed on this podcast are low. For most books my affiliate sales are probably in the single digits. A few titles have achieved low double digit sales. What I don't know is how often a podcast plants a seed for later mention.
If you are an author do podcast appearances matter? Have they helped your sales?
If you are a podcast listener does hearing an author on this or other podcasts influence your purchasing decision?
The market for books by paramedics and EMTs is a micro niche. Maybe 10 books sold through a podcast for this niche is significant. I am not sure.
If you are looking for book ideas I added an Amazon book store recently, EMS Books for your Kindle.

Diocesan House, St Albans
|Diocesan House, St Albans
|Diocesan House Maternity Hospital
|St Albans, Hertfordshire, England, United Kingdom
|Affiliated university
|General Lying-In Hospital
|1939[citation needed]
|Hospitals in England
Diocesan House is located in Verulam Road, St Albans on the northern side between Church Crescent and Britton Avenue opposite College Street grid reference TL1454007480.
It is now known as Verulam House and has also been referred to as the Bishop's Palace.
Throughout the Second World War it was used as a maternity hospital and a facility for the training of pupil midwives by the General Lying-In Hospital which had been evacuated from York Road, Lambeth, (Waterloo), in central London.
During the period between September 1939 and June 1946 two thousand babies were born here.
The General Lying-In Hospital was re-established at its former Lambeth premises in 1946 after the end of the war.
The Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages of Hertfordshire in the district of St Albans at that time indicated that the place of birth was Diocesan House, Verulam Road, St Albans Urban District.
In 1994, Verulam House, St Albans as it was by then again known, which had since 1926 been used mainly as a Diocesan Retreat and Conference Centre by the Church of England Diocese of St Albans, was sold and a trust fund set up with the proceeds.
Since 1996 the House has been the site of the 'Verulam House Nursing and Residential Home'.
The House was also known as the Bishop's Palace from 1913 up until 1926. It is of early nineteenth-century origin and a Grade II listed building.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 nights
Swanson House is ideally located on Gillam Bay and the Atlantic on the eastern shore of Green Turtle Cay, one of many beautiful islands in the Abacos archipelago in the northeastern Bahamas.
This spacious home sits high on a bluff on three quiet tropical acres complete with boat dock and private beach. Commanding views of the ocean and protected Black Sound provide both sunrise and sunset viewing.
The village of New Plymouth is just a short ride away, where shopping and casual dining are available. The Bluff House and The Green Turtle Club, on White Sound, are also close by and provide fine dining and night life activities.
Several experienced guides are locally available for fishing, snorkeling and scuba diving. Kayaks are available on site.
We also have a cottage to rent on the oceanfront (House on the Point; VRBO listing #310005). Please contact us for more details and rates.
Keywords: House
Our family of four currently resides in Birmingham, Alabama. My mother co-owns the property and now lives in Punta Gorda, Florida, and is a well known island regular. Click 'satellite' on the map below and zoom in to see the property!
Mike Swanson purchased this house in 1984
This has been our vacation home for almost 30 years. We have rented the cottage to vacationers for many years, and have recently decided to share 'The Big House' as well.
Fishing, diving, and beach combing have been our great pleasure here for years, and there are experienced local guides for hire as well. Lately we are just as likely to enjoy relaxing on our three tropical acres, and the quaint village of New Plymouth is just a short walk or golf cart ride up the road. There one can find shops, a museum, and fine and casual dining. If you have a boat, or wish to rent one locally, our dock on Black Sound is available for your use.
We've been to GTC many times both by boat and by plane. Being creatures of habit we have always stayed at one of the marinas. For this most recent weekend trip we decided to branch out and came across the Swanson house and it was amazing!
The house is huge and the property is very private. Having a dock on one side and the bay on the other is the best of both worlds.
The decor is eclectic and we felt as though we were house sitting for an old friend. Everything we needed (except a hair dryer - couldn't find it) was there.
The owner was responsive and cordial and the caretaker for the property, who met us at the dock, showed us everything to make the stay easy.
We are already making plans to stay again next year!
Our family trip to Green Turtle Cay was excellent, and the largest part of that was our rental of the Swanson House. The location is perfect, with the beach on one side and the dock on the other. Being close enough to town to walk to restaurants and shops was ideal too. Patricia, the caretaker, and her family were so helpful during our stay. One highlight was when Patricia's son took us on his boat to visit the pigs on No Name Cay and the sharks and stingrays on Manjack Island. The house itself is a delight, not fancy and a little quirky, but completely comfortable and very roomy. Snorkeling off the beach near the cut was pretty good, although we had a little more luck up at Coco Bay. Renting a golf cart and exploring the whole island was awesome. People in town were always friendly, and we enjoyed trying different restaurants every day. We have been to several islands in the Caribbean, and Green Turtle Cay is probably our favorite in terms of overall experience. Without a doubt, staying at the Swanson House was an excellent decision.
Easy to get into town, great dock for rental boat, awesome caretakers. We rented the upstairs house and down stairs house as well for a guys only trip...... Worked great. Plenty of room for everyone. We are going to book again this year with the whole family!
This slice of paradise is THE PLACE! We have been here 3 times and are already booking our next stays. We love the property with its 3 - 4 different private beaches (although all beaches are public in BAHA) and the best access to crystal clear waters of beautiful Gillam Bay plus the Atlantic in front of the house and Pelican Cay across a small finger of the Atlantic. It is located on the only road to town plus has a deep water dock on Black Sound at the back, by the road, as one enters the property. One has incredible sunrises over the Atlantic, beautiful sunsets off the back porch or at the dock, and incredible star gazing and the Milky Way when not cloudy. We have had wonderful times with our family and friends. The property is well kept and maintained, the caretaker is wonderful and close by and the home has all the amenities one could dream of...we didn't even use the satellite tv or movies, there was just too much else to do on the island. It's close to New Plymouth, and shopping, dining and museums. Our cart (from Seaside Carts) is always waiting for us at the dock when we arrive, as is the care taker. During our last stay in July 2013 we observed numerous White Night Blooming Cereus over a naturally formed archway of plants and trees leading to the 'front' of the property (facing the Atlantic ocean side). An outdoor shower enables one to wash off sand and get feet clean to prevent tracking sand into this lovely estate home. Each trip we have brought friends with us and now Green Turtle Cay and Swanson House will have even more returning guests! We recommend menu planning and taking over what your carrier will allow (no fresh anything, must all be frozen or preserved) and fishing from the rocky point at the front on the Atlantic...or going on one of many fishing charters. As we are in central FL its maybe a 4 - 5 hour trip by air and water ferry from our front door to Swanson House...we feel very protective of this property and want to help keep it beautiful and all that's inside this lovely home in tip top shape. The owner is the epitome of graciousness in answering questions and giving advice. We almost don't want to write a review as now we're having trouble booking it when we want it, but it is a special place and worth every cent! ENJOY....this is a one of a kind vacay!
The week I spent at Swanson House with my family and boyfriend was perfect. The house has all of the amenities that I thought I would need/want when I arrived (internet, satellite, DVD, etc) but that I couldn't have cared less about after a couple days. It was wonderful to disconnect and enjoy the ocean breeze while sitting one of the balconies reading, or walking the beach, or exploring the island in a golf-cart. With the super helpful staff at Swanson house there was nothing to worry about and always a friendly face if we had any questions. Scuba diving out on the reefs was incredible and being able to snorkel and fish just off the beach at the house was so convenient. The week was amazing and I often find myself daydreaming about being back under the Green Turtle sun when I am bogged down with work. I can't wait to go back.
Our stay on Green Turtle Cay was everything I could have dreamed of! The island is just the way I remembered it and the Swanson House made the visit even better. It is on a secluded stretch of beach with snorkeling right of the beach. The photos don't do the house justice. The house has all the amenities you could possibly need and we had a great time creating meals in the 'chefs kitchen'. The fishing and diving were outstanding, and the boat dock makes all those activities so convenient. Patricia was a breath of fresh air. She was available for any questions or to help out finding things. I would return again as soon as I am able!

I'll be turning 28 this Friday. Yep, Friday the 13th. And it's supposed to rain.
But here's the thing... when I was born 28 years ago, it was truly a dark and stormy Friday the 13th. I think that's why I'm not at all superstitious as well as why 13 is my lucky number. And my mom's. And maybe it's why I don't mind having a black cat who walks in front of me a hundred times a day.
Of course, sometimes I'm unlucky in love... but I don't think that has much to do with being born on a Friday the 13th. Ha. And I know one day I'll be incredibly lucky in love, so this is really all moot.
But the point is that I'm only 27 for a few more days. I think that my birthday is always a bigger cause for reflection and introspection for me than the new year.
Maybe some things didn't go exactly how I would have liked in the past year, but there's been a LOT of really good things. I have a full life.
I got closer to my current friends. I met some new people that have become pretty important to me. I ran some fantastic races. I took some trips. I connected with friends who live out of town. I moved to Nashville. I spent more time going out and about and exploring new restaurants, bars and other local spots that have quickly become some of my favorite places to hang out.
I've challenged myself. I've accomplished a lot of things on my various to do lists.
So yeah... there have been some rough spots, but all in all? It's been a good year.
And maybe my life doesn't look exactly how I would have hoped on this birthday, but what it looks like is pretty awesome... and I have a feeling that in the year to come, things are going to look even more awesome than I could have planned myself.

Music is like air. Like water. With us, in us, around us, intimate, always.
First kiss, first love, making love, lullabies, wedding songs, graduation, sock hops, white ankle socks, births, break ups, funerals, in the bath, in the morning, your alarm, your ring tone, your call to arms, in the living room loving your lover or bouncing your baby on your hip. We mark moments with music.
I can tell you what song was playing the first time I had sex. I can tell you what music I was listening to while pregnant with my first child. I could journal my hopes and dashed hopes and forgotten loves in never forgotten songs. I can paint stories with lyrics and encode emotions in bass lines. And I can tell you what Thriller meant to me. I can tell you why the internet slowed, Facebook exploded and Twitter screamed when Michael Jackson died.
It was not that time stood still. It did not. Instead, time conflated. It rolled back on itself like fabric worried between nervous fingers. In the moment of the news of Michael Jackson's death, in that precise moment, I was thirty-six and ten years old, at the same time. I was learning the moonwalk from my dancing Aunty Ingrid; I was rolling up my jeans to show off my white socks; I was lusting for a red leather jacket; I was watching the video Thriller every hour on the hour; I was watching squares light up beneath Michael Jackson's every step in Billie Jean as my Twitter feed lit up my computer screen at work.
When we grieve the deaths of celebrities – people we have never known personally, who may have led the way in trend or fashion or popular imagination but did not offer or exact social change or courage or sacrifice, who did not bend the world along the long arc of justice – we grieve for ourselves and for the insignificance of our legacies.
We grieve for mercurial youth splitting and silvering into glittering marbles rolling away, always away; for moments of passion gone by and gone dry; our weaknesses; our mistakes; our foibles; struggles; neuroses; the wounds we suffered and those we visited on others. We grieve. We grieve talent wasted, partial, never realized, not enough, and should have been more.
Talent sometimes seeks to recast the world in its own image; and, when that fails or flounders, seeks sanctuary in a world of its own creation, an insular, humid, privileged, incestuous hothouse of demons and neuroses flourishing and feeding on each other, growing strong, monstrously weak, decadent and absurd.
Picasso was a tormented minotaur who savaged the psyches of the women who loved him. Einstein was a domestic tyrant. Miles Davis landed his fists on the peerlessly emotive face of Cicely Tyson. And Michael Jackson likely seduced and violated children for pleasure.
This we should not romanticize. None of this we should idealize or excuse; genius cannot be equated with ghoulish permission to consume the spirits and souls of others. The polarity of Michael Jackson's legacy, of his musical and marketing genius versus his narcissism, depravity and absurdity, is hair-holdingly nauseating. This was a life but it was no life. He was just a man. He was not a man. He was the foil to what a man of character ought to be.
So when we grieve for Michael Jackson, we are not grieving him as man or as a precious life lost; we grieve his talent, his wasted talent, and the violence that the fruits of his talent allowed him to visit on himself and others. We grieve his dichotomous legacy. The zenith of artistry. The colonization of teen imagination, circa 1983. The diminishing trajectory of talent. The waste. The wreckage. The wrongs.
And in this grief, we mourn our own middling legacies, rue their insignificance and their invisibility, and marvel that there will be days – every day – that the world will not slow to make origami of time in honour of our ends.
I am not writing about Michael Jackson. I am writing about you. About the man in the mirror.

another question if anybody can help or has something similar happen to them.
ever since i bought my car 3 and a half years ago i have never been able to drop the clutch successfully for a good launch only ever tried it 3 time though mainly due to the fact that when i do the clutch just rides and a **** load of blue smoke pours out the exhaust then you just smell clutch for the next day or 2.
just to point out there is no slippage in my clutch at all any other time even when im giving it nuts. and the car never blows smoke any other time.
because of that fact i never dump the clutch any more i always have to take of normally in 1st and then kick it which seems to work fine but stops me from getting the jump of the line.
any help would be appreciated

Tragic Death in Garrison Home
Black bunting is on display at Garrison Fire Department headquarters this week in memory of a long-time member whose body was found in his Garrison residence.
The Putnam County Sheriff's Department reported the death last week of Donald Lefari, 63, of Manitou Woods in Garrison.
Lefari was a prominent Manhattan attorney who moved to Garrison 19 years ago.
Sheriff's Department Captain William McNamara said Lefari's wife was at her place of employment in New York City and became concerned when her husband failed to answer several telephone calls made to the home: "She called a neighbor and requested that he check on her husband. The neighbor walked over to the Lefari's property and found Donald Lefari floating face down in the hot tub located in the rear of their property."
Capt. McNamara said the neighbor called 911, and sheriff's department personnel along with members of the Garrison FD and Garrison Volunteer Ambulance Corps rushed to the scene. The victim was unresponsive despite attempts to revive him.
Putnam County Coroner Dr. William Stahl responded to the residence and pronounced Lefari dead.
An autopsy performed at Putnam Hospital Center determined the cause of death as drowning subject to the results of toxicology testing.
Lefari was past-president of the fire department and was also captain of the Garrison FD Fire Police Unit as well as a member of the Putnam County Fire Police Response Team.
John Bodor of Patterson, a lieutenant with the county team, recalled how Lefari's department hosted the last meeting of the Putnam-Northern Westchester Fire Police Association in May. Bodor called Lefari "quite a host. He was a dedicated member of the emergency services who will be missed."
Bodor and many of his colleagues traveled to Peekskill last Friday for a memorial service held at the Clinton Funeral Home.

Blackwater Valley Circular Walks contains full details of 12 circular walks in and around the Blackwater Valley. Not only will it introduce you to the many nature reserves, country parks, woodlands and meadows in the area, but it will also act as the perfect companion publication to our Explore the Blackwater Valley guide.

We have been updating, revamping and improving our guide to the Blackwater Valley Path guide book, which gives details of the 23-mile long distance route that follows the River Blackwater. Renamed Explore the Blackwater Valley, the new book includes everything the old path book offered, including clear, specially drawn and easy-to-follow maps, a detailed route description, which identifies the multi-user section - suitable for cyclists, wheelchair users and pushchairs - and provides information on some of the points of general interest in the Valley. In addition we have expanded the book and it now includes details of the many places of interest along the way with specific information about the recreational facilities including angling and watersports. In full-colour, our 48-page illustrated guide is a must have for all Valley residents and visitors alike.
The Blackwater Valley area was described in the 1930s as a dragonflies paradise. Since then gravel extraction has created many more lakes and ponds, making it one of the best areas in Britain to see both dragonflies and damselflies. Blackwater Valley Dragonflies features a detailed description of the 30 species that can be found on various sites within the Valley. With close-up photographs and details of where and when to find the different species, this booklet is a must for wildlife enthusiasts.

Best Healthy Vegan Indian Naan (Or Garlic Naan) Bread!
Recipe by Enjolinfam
Most healthier naan recipes didn't taste as good to us as the recipes that included oil and dairy. So, we came up with this yummy and healthier alternative that amazingly still has no added oil or dairy! Like most naan recipes it is time consuming, but we love Indian food and can't seem to eat it without the naan. Add the garlic to turn the plain naan into garlic naan (our favorite). We use our recipe Quick Tofu and Cashew Sour Cream (Vegan) for the vegan sour cream, but you can also find it in grocery or health food stores.
Top Review by Herbivore Hail_Seit
This was so good! Thank you so much! My fiance and I have been missing naan TONS since we adopted a vegan diet over 2 years ago. This recipe fixes it all. I used a plain soy yogurt instead of the sour cream because that's what I had on hand. The coriander really shone through & it was exciting to see the dough transform with the brown spots & bubbles! Next time we'll add the garlic. This is great! 2 thumbs up & 5 stars! (Toddler loved it, too!)

General Question
Emigrate to America for an German , financially ?
Hello Community , the question is for detroit people :)
first i want to apologize for my englisch. The reason is that i´m an Albanian – German and i live in Germany :) . But and that´s my question , How finanicially is it in the USA in cities like Brooklyn , Detroit… ( i want to live in Detroit when it´s possibly . Because i mean the city detroit is not like i dont know L.A etc. i mean it´s not so expensive to live there that means i must not pay too much for rent and so and maybe i dont need there 3 jobs at one time like i heard . also i dont have any roblems to live in a more not so rich area or city i even like it : Ghettos… :) and i think that there wouldn´t be problems to emigrate to america because not closely related but related living there.
thank you for all answers .

1990 gmc starts but dies in gear
hey every one i have a question for you guys agian, my buddy has a 1990 gmc jimmy fuel injected 350. He has been having some issues with it and i cant think of what it can be now we have replaced cap and rotor fuel pump and strainer and fuel line filter. There are no check engine lights coming on and im stumped any advice on what it could be? thanks everyone
Well it starts just fine and it will rev through the rpms in nutural but as soon as its put into gear the rpms go down real low and the engine dies if he even tries to pull forward unless he rides the brake and keeps the rpms up but even then it dies fairly quick
Can you give it throttle and drive it or is that impossible? Is it going to die regardless of the throttle position?
start with the basics, compression test, leak down test, condition of spark plugs-black is rich mixture, plug wires, timing, vacuum lines, battery cables and terminals, positive connection at starter and ground connections at engine and body, also ground points in the wiring harness, pcv valve operation and the port that it connects to at the tbi (they are known for plugging up there), does the engine pick up rpm or drop rpm when the pcv valve is removed? make sure both injectors are pulsing a nice uniform cone spray into the tbi, check the timing as you rev it up to see that it does advance with rpm, make sure the rockers are all moving about the same (ensures you don't have a lobe gone off the cam).check for a plugged muffler or catalytic converter- do a vacuum test where you rev the engine up for a couple of minutes as you check to see if the vacuum goes down slowly. check at the exhaust pipe to see if it is black when it dies-too much fuel. check the fuel pressure in the inlet side of the tbi, maybe the regulator is shot. I had one that did this and it was actually the ecm. another one I did it was the ignition module.
like the guys say, give us as much info as you can so we can troubleshoot it without seeing it. what does it do when it stalls, is it like it is starving for fuel or does it does it run like you have the choke pulled out too far on a carbed engine-kind of lopey? does it black smoke out the exhaust and slowly die? does it stall quicklyas soon as it is placed into drive, like you dropped the clutch at idle in a standard shift truck, ? what have you checked already? have you tried cleaning the idle air control air passage or removed the idle air control motor and checked the pintle and seat for build up? have you removed and cleaned the throttle body and all the passages under it, like for the pcv valve port? have you checked the base timing with the timing connector unplugged and then with the connector plugged in to see if you are getting advance from the ignition module? have you checked for too much timing chain slack or has it maybe skipped a tooth on the timing set? turn the engine over by hand backwards about half a turn or whatever until it comes up on the timing marks. take the distributor cap off and make a mark on the distrubutor housing with a piece of tape or a crayon where the rotor is pointing to. then, while watching the igntion rotor, turn it over by hand the other way and note how many degrees the crank has to turn until the rotor just starts to move.that will give you an idea of how much timing chain slack you have. how many miles on the engine? has it been sitting around for awhile and now you are working with stale fuel? did it start this all of a sudden? if it did, did it start with some backfiring or anything specific?
hope this helps. keep us posted.

hi guys im new to all this how is everyone? i wondered if anyone can help me my 318i auto 2002 keeps running out of coolant and i dont know why please help :cry:
One or more components failed/leaking (i.e., coolant reservoir, radiator, hoses, etc.)
Cracked head
Cracked block
Failed head gasket
Have the cooling system pressure-tested, and report back here.
MOST LIKELY cause is the coolant expansion tank is cracked and is leaking. This is a very common failure on your car. A lot of times it comes from overfilling the expansion tank, then after it pressurizes, it cracks around one of the hose fittings.

location close to a good transit hub poor wi-fi lack of reading lights
The location was good, close to the skyline transportation which was nice. It was so damn dirty and smelly. I'm not sure if it was just the room I got but my God never again. Should be an unrated hotel. This place sucks and wifi isn't even free. You have to pay for the wifi. I didn't even want to sleep there anymore.
Only 15 bucks a night Dirty, Scary, Gross, Pay the extra and go somewhere nicer and closer
Location Train whistles outside hotel all night long. AC not working. Bed bugs. Bus loads of chinese eating like pigs at a trough
On line Price Bed bugs and bus loads of Chinese who ate breakfast like pigs at a trough.
Very good Location Not free Wi-Fi
The rooms are big and well equip. Also pretty clean. There is free gym. The location is pretty bad. Yes, it is close to the strain station to the Airport but that's it! There are no cafes/restaurants/shops at any place close to it and all the locals around this area speak no English at all! The only laundry available near by is extremely expensive even in western standards as they know they're the only ones around and there is 450 rooms hotel next door. Also the food in the restaurant is really awful and not so cheap and that is the only normal place to eat nearby as there is nothing else where you can walk next to the hotel! Another thing is - wi-fi is 150(!!) baht per day! Very expensive even that the internet was disconnecting all the time and very very slow!
location Train whistle all night long next to hotel, Chinese tourist by the bus load.
Very nica staff...nice price and just take the skytrain to city for 15 Bath. A bit noisy if you got a room towords the trains...but okey.
The price is good, so is the location being so close to the Sky Train. Rooms are good and the staff very friendly and helpfull
The Team members very helpful and rooms were lovely No swimming pool, working cocktail bar or hotel shutle service which were all advertised on bookings.com and some were in hotel leaflet
Although it was clear that very few of the staff spoke or understood english they all went out of their way to try to comunicate with us whenever we passed. When we booked we were advised that the hotel had a rooftop pool, however this was not true. We did not see a pool anywhere.
staff very helpful, kept our bag whikle we were in Vietnam, free internet access, breakfast available 24 hours a day. A bit dated and a little bit further from the airport than we realised.
Staff spoke very limited english and very few taxi drivers knew how to find the hotel
Restaurant had good food for fair price. Hotel staff was very nice. Hotel room was dirty, AC did not work good, hotel surroundings has not been taken care of in years. Swimmingpool very dirty.
leaving This hotel is described incorrectly it should be only 1 star. the pictures shown on the web are at least 10years old... our air conditioning did not work.. there was large holes in the worn out towels towels..the rooms were dirty (we had 2 rooms) room service took 40 minutes to deliver our children ice cream... no maintenance had be done on the property for many years... a long time ago it would have been a nice property but now it is in a state of disrepair... cable TV did not work...the was a car wreck left in the entrance of the foyer ...the weeds in the gardens were shoulder height...way overpriced for the quality and comfort of accommodation... the included breakfast did not even have milk for the coffee ....and the food unacceptable.
very friendly staff who made our stay very enjoyable. thank you to jason and coke. an introduction to facilities would have been helpful on arrival
Friendly people, great atmosphere, very Thai, excellent Thai food. Hot water intermittent; no unsweetened coffee
Your willingness to try and accomodate & fast room service I arrived at 2am and would have enjoyed a relaxing massage after such a long trip but you couldn't comply.
Pleasant, quite Service was below average, almost no english
good breakfast
Good service ok room and great "garden".

1. Full Name: Boss Bailey
School: Georgia Ht:
6-3 Wt: 230 40: 4.55 Year: 5Sr
Number: 45
|"Following in the footsteps of his brothers at Georgia, Boss Bailey is another family defender that causes an impact and like older sibling Champ, a complete football player that will quickly earn playing time in the NFL." Tony Pauline-TFY Draft Preview
The Good: The next productive football player from the Bailey household. Athletic, explosive and a complete linebacker. Breaks down well, efficient defending the run and terrific in pass coverage. Gets depth on his drops covering an exceptional amount of area on the field to the point where he is effective over the slot receiver on third and long situations. Easily runs down the field opposing tight ends, smooth turning back to the ball and redirects to the pass nicely in mid-air, making the tough interception. Quick changing direction, scrapes well to the flanks and stays on his feet. Deceptively strong and slides off blocks on his way to the action. Squares into the tackle and easily brings opponents down on initial contact.
The Bad: Has a history of knee injuries which must be checked out.
The Skinny: First round talent but the knee injuries may red flag him and push him deeper into the first round than his playing skills would warrant.
Projected order in draft: Late 1st round.
2. Full Name: LaMarcus McDonald School: TCU Ht:
6-1 Wt: 225 40: 4.83 Year: P48-Jr
Number: 44
|"A venerable tackling machine, LaMarcus McDonald is a forceful run defender that plays assignment football and goes hard for sixty minutes." Tony Pauline-TFY Draft Preview
The Good: Forceful run defender best in a straight line. Disciplined, plays assignment football and quick to read or anticipate the action. Strong, holds his ground against blocks and bulls his way up the field squaring into the tackle, wrapping up, then easily bringing the ball carrier down on initial contact. Gets adequate depth on his pass drops.
The Bad: Lacks the quick or fluid change of direction, not fast laterally nor does he redirect well. Poor size/speed numbers; built for the weak-side but plays like a strong-side linebacker.
The Skinny: Needs to prove at the Senior Bowl he can defend the pass and make plays out to the sidelines if he's to break into the drafts first day.
Projected order in draft: Early 3rd round.
3. Full Name: Nick Barnett School: Oregon State Ht:
6-1.5 Wt: 225 40: 4.59 Year: 4Sr
Number: 42
|"With all the talent coming out of the Pac Ten on a yearly basis someone is bound to get overlooked. That player is Oregon State linebacker Nick Barnett, an explosive middle line defender that plays with the same intensity and productivity as did the man he replaced." Tony Pauline-TFY Draft Preview
The Good: Fast, heady linebacker with a good feel for the game. Reads and anticipates the action, quick filling the gaps and constantly flying around the ball. Gets depth on his pass drops, displays great range and makes plays in every direction of the field. Has a burst of speed, easily runs with opponents in pass coverage and scrapes well laterally, quickly cutting off the corners from ball carriers. Very active.
The Bad: Small, overwhelmed at the point and not an efficient linebacker. Over-pursues the action and does not play with great body control.
The Skinny: Solid weak-side prospect that must be put in schemes that will protect him. Possibly a nickel linebacker placed on the field in third and long.
Projected order in draft: Late 3rd round.
4. Full Name: Victor Hobson School: Michigan Ht:
6-0.5 Wt: 240 40: 4.75 Year: 5Sr
Number: 6
|"The University of Michigan has a habit of producing explosive linebackers that fall short of the desired size/strength/speed numbers NFL teams are looking for and as a result drop down draft boards. The bottom line is these players go on to produce at the next level. Make room for Victor Hobson." Tony Pauline-TFY Draft Preview
The Good: Tough, heady linebacker that defends both the run and pass. Quick reading or anticipating the action, immediately picks up pass cover assignments and plays with a good degree of instinct. Breaks down well, finds his way through the traffic and always looking to get involved in the action. Rarely off his feet and displays exceptional range, scraping well to the sidelines or getting depth on his pass drops. Displays a burst to the ball carrier and has a good degree of suddenness to his game.
The Bad: Very slow to shed and gets wired in blocks with opponents. Solid in pass defense but does not stand out. Does not time well in the forty and short.
The Skinny: Going to be downgraded because of poor size/speed numbers but like his predecessors (Ian Gold, Dhani Jones) will find a place at the next level and comfortably fit in.
Projected order in draft: Early 4th round.
5. Full Name: Angelo Crowell School: Virginia Ht: 6-0 Wt: 240 40:<
