The Letter from Mrs. MacElroy
August 12, 2007
Dear Lawrence,
I am typing this letter to you on my old Underwood
typewriter that I bought after I was discharged from the
Army. Somehow it seems like a fitting contrast to the
subject of this letter and the documents you will find
enclosed in this envelope.
The last time I spoke to you was about eight years ago.
During your brief telephone interview with me you asked
me to assist you with the research for "The Oz Factors"
book you were writing because you suspected that I might
know something that would help your investigation into
the possibility that extraterrestrial beings may have
influenced the history of Earth. When we spoke, I told
you that I did not have any information that I could
share with you about anything.
Since then I have read your book and found it very
interesting and compelling. You are obviously a man who
has done his homework, and who could understand my own
experiences. I've been thinking a lot about your
allusion to the old philosopher whom you paraphrased in
our phone conversation: "with great power, comes great
responsibility". Although I don't think power is
pertinent in my life or to my reasons for sending you
the enclosed documents, you certainly did get me
thinking about my responsibility.
I have reconsidered my position, for a variety of
reasons, not the least of which is my realization that
you were right. I do have a responsibility to myself,
at least. I can not possibly tell you the personal Hell 5
(Footnote) of ethical irresolution and spiritual ambivalence
I have endured since 1947. I do not want to keep playing
the game of "maybe I should have, or maybe I shouldn't
have", through the rest of Eternity!
Many men have been killed to extinguish the possibility
of revealing the knowledge I have helped to withhold
from society, until now. Only a small handful of people
on Earth have seen and heard what I have had the burden
of keeping secret for sixty years. All those years I
thought that I had been entrusted with a great deal of
confidence by the "powers that be" in our government,
although I have often felt that power is greatly
misguided, to "protect" Mankind from the certain
knowledge that, not only do intelligent extraterrestrial
life forms exist, but that they have and continue to
aggressively monitor and invade the lives of everyone on
Earth every day.
Therefore, I think the time has come to pass along my
secret knowledge to someone I think will understand it.
I don't think it would be responsible of me to take the
knowledge I have into the silent afterlife, beyond reach
or recognition. I think there is a greater good to be
served than protecting the "vested interests" for whom
this information is considered a matter of "national
security", whatever that means, and is therefore
justification for making it "TOP SECRET". 6 (Footnote)
Also, I am now 83 years old. I have decided to leave
this body, which has outlasted it's usefulness to me,
using a painless method of self-administered euthanasia. 7
(Footnote) I have a very few months to live, and nothing to
fear or lose.
So, I have moved away from Montana, where my husband and
I lived for most of my life, to spend our remaining days
in a lovely rented upstairs bedroom in a house in the
homeland of my husband's family in County Meath,
Ireland. 8 (Footnote)
I will die not far from "The Great Mound" at Knowth 9 (Footnote),and Dowth,
the "Fairy Mound of Darkness". These
are sacred "cairns" or massive stone structures that
were erected about 3,700 BCE and engraved with
indecipherable hieroglyphs -- about the same time as
pyramids and other inexplicable stone monuments were
being built all over the Earth.
I am also not far from "The Hill of Tara", 10 (Footnote) that
was once the ancient seat of power in Ireland where 142
kings are said to have reigned in prehistoric and
historic times. In ancient Irish religion and mythology
this was the sacred place of dwelling for the "gods" and
was the entrance to the "other world".
Saint Patrick came to Tara to conquer the ancient
religion of the pagans. He may have suppressed the
religious practices in the area, but he certainly did
not have any impact on the "gods" who brought these
civilizations to Earth, as you will discover when you
read the documents enclosed. Therefore, this is a
fitting location for my departure from this unholy world
and final release from the burdens of this life.
The crystal clear perspective of hindsight has revealed
a higher purpose to me: assisting the survival of the
planet, all living beings and life forms in our galaxy!
The status quo of our government establishment has been
to "protect the people" from knowledge of such matters.
In fact, the only protection afforded by ignorance and
secrecy is to hide the private agenda of those in power
to enslave others. And, by doing so, to disarm every
perceived enemy, and ally, through superstition and
Therefore, I have enclosed the original and only
existing copies of my personal notes and reflections on
a matter which I have kept hidden from everyone, even my
own family. I have also enclosed my copies of typed
transcripts created by the stenographer who transcribed
all of my interviews with the alien saucer pilot after
each interview was finished. I do not have any copies
of the tape recordings that were made of my interview
reports. No one, until now, knows that I was able to
secretly retain copies of the official interview
Now I am entrusting these documents to your discretion
to impart to the world in any form or manner you see
fit. My only request is that you do so in a way that
will not threaten your own life or well being, if
possible. If you were to incorporate these notes of my
experiences into a work of fiction, such as a novel, the
factual nature of the material could be easily dismissed
or discredited by any agency for whom "national
security" is used as a personal shield against scrutiny
and justice.
In so doing, you could "disavow any knowledge" of their
true origin, and claim that it is a fictitious work of
your imagination. Whoever said that "truth is stranger
than fiction" was "right as rain". For most people all
of this will be "unbelievable". Unfortunately, beliefs
are not a reliable criteria for reality.
Also, I am sure that if you were to show these notes to
anyone that would prefer physical, economic or spiritual
slavery over freedom, the subject matter contained in
them would seem quite objectionable. If you attempted
to published the documents as a matter of factual
reporting in a newspaper or on the evening TV news they
would be rejected out of hand as the work of a kook.
The very nature of these documents make them
unbelievable, and therefore discreditable. Conversely,
the release of this information is potentially
catastrophic for certain political, religious and
economic vested interests.
These documents contain information which is quite
relevant to your interest and investigations into alien
encounters and paranormal experience. To use your
analogy in "The Oz Factors" book, I can honestly say
that the few factual reports that have been made by
others about "alien" influences are only a gentle breeze
in the eye of an Apocalyptic Hurricane swirling around
Earth. There really are wizards and wicked witches and
flying monkeys in this universe!
This information, which has been suspected and/or
speculated upon by so many for so long, has been
constantly denied by mainstream media, academia, and the
Military-Industrial Complex 11 (Footnote) that President
Eisenhower warned us about in his farewell address.
As you known in July,1947,the Roswell Army Air Field
(RAAF) 12 (Footnote) issued a press release stating that
personnel from the field's 509th Bomb Group had
recovered a crashed "flying disc" from a ranch near
Roswell, New Mexico, sparking intense media interest.
Later the same day, the Commanding General of the Eighth
Air Force 14 (Footnote) stated that Major Jesse Marcel, who
was involved with the original recovery of the debris,
had recovered only the tattered remnants of a weather
balloon. The true facts of the incident have been
suppressed by the United States government since then.
You may not know that I was enlisted in the U.S. Women's
Army Air Force(WAC) 15 (Footnote) Medical Corp which was a
part of the US Army back then. I was assigned to the
509th Bomb Group as a Flight Nurse 16 (Footnote)at the time
of the incident.
When the news that there had been a crash was received
at the base, I was asked to accompany Mr. Cavitt, the
Counter Intelligence Officer, 17 (Footnote) to the crash site
as the driver of his vehicle, and to render any needed
emergency medical assistance to any survivors, if
necessary. 18 (Footnote) Therefore, I briefly witnessed the
wreckage of an alien space craft, as well as the remains
of the several alien personnel aboard the craft who were
already dead.
When we arrived I learned that one of the personnel on
board the craft had survived the crash, and was
conscious, and apparently uninjured. The conscious
alien was similar in appearance, but not the same as,
the others.
None of the other personnel present could communicate
with the survivor, as the being did not communicate
verbally or by any recognizable signs. However, while I
examined the "patient" for injuries I immediately
detected and understood that the alien being was
attempting to communicate with me by "mental images", or
"telepathic thought", 20 (Footnote) which projected directly
from the mind of the being.
I immediately reported this phenomenon to Mr. Cavitt. As
no other person present could perceive these thoughts,
and the alien seemed able and willing to communicate
with me, it was decided, after a brief consultation with
a senior officer, that I would accompany the surviving
alien back to the base.
This was partly due to the fact that I was a nurse, and
could attend to the physical needs of the alien, as well
as serve as a non-threatening communicator and
companion. After all, I was the only woman at the site
and the only one who was not armed. I was thereafter
assigned permanently to serve as a "companion" of the
alien at all times. 21 (Footnote)
My duty was to communicate with and interview the alien
and to make a complete report of all that I discovered
to command authorities. Subsequently, I was supplied
with specific lists of questions provided to me by
military and non-military personnel, which I was to
"interpret" for the alien, and record the responses to
the questions provided.
I also accompanied the alien at all times during medical
testing and the many other examinations to which the
alien was subjected by staff from numerous government
I was given a promotion in rank to Senior Master
Sergeant to improve my security rating, and to increase
my pay grade from $54.00 a month to $138.00 a month, for
this very unusual assignment. I performed these duties
from July 7th through August,1947,at which time the
alien "died" or departed the "body", as you will read
about in my notes.
Although I was never left entirely alone with the alien,
as there were always military personnel, intelligence
agency people and a variety of other officials present
from time to time, I did have uninterrupted access to
and communication with the alien being for nearly six
Hereinafter is an overview and summary of my personal
recollections of "conversations" with the alien craft
pilot, whom I came to know by the identity of "Airl".
I feel that it is my duty at this time, in the best
interest of the citizens of Earth, to reveal what I have
learned from my interaction with "Airl" during those six
weeks, on the anniversary of her "death" or departure
sixty years ago.
Although I served as a nurse in the Army Air Force, I am
not a pilot or technician. Further, I did not have any
direct contact with the space craft or other materials
recovered from the crash site at that time, or
thereafter. To that degree it must be taken into
consideration that my understanding of the
communications I had with " Airl" are based on my own
subjective ability to interpret the meaning of the
thoughts and mental images I was able to perceive.
Our communication did not consist of "spoken language",
in the conventional sense. Indeed, the "body" of the
alien had no "mouth" through which to speak. Our
communication was by telepathy. At first, I could not
understand Airl very clearly. I could perceive images,
emotions and impressions, but it was difficult for me to
express these verbally. Once Airl learned the English
language, she was able to focus her thoughts more
precisely using symbols and meanings of words I could
understand. Learning the English language was done as a
favor to me. It was more for my own benefit than hers.
By the end of our interview sessions, and increasingly
since then, I have become more comfortable with
telepathic communication. I have become more adept at
understanding Airl's thoughts as though they are my own.
Somehow, her thoughts become my thoughts. Her emotions
are my emotions. However, this is limited by her
willingness and intention to share her own, personal
universe with me. She is able to be selective about
what communication I am allowed to receive from her.
Likewise, her experience, training, education,
relationships and purposes are uniquely her own.
This is the symbol of "The Domain"
The Domain is a race or civilization of which Airl, the
alien I interviewed, is an officer, pilot and engineer
serving in The Domain Expeditionary Force. The symbol
represents the origin and unlimited boundary of the
known universe, united and integrated into a vast
civilization under the control of The Domain.
Airl is currently stationed at a base in the asteroid
belt which she refers as a "space station" in the solar
system of Earth. First and foremost, Airl is herself.
Secondarily, she voluntarily serves as an Officer, Pilot
and Engineer in The Domain Expeditionary Force. In that
capacity she has duties and responsibilities, but she is
at leave to come and go as she pleases also.
Please accept this material and make it known to as many
people as possible. I repeat that it is not my
intention to endanger your life with the possession of
this material, nor do I really expect you to believe any
of it either. However, I do sense that you can
appreciate the value that such knowledge may have to
those who are willing and able to face the reality of
Mankind needs to know the answers to questions which are
contained in these documents. Who are we? Where did we
come from? What is our purpose on Earth? Is Mankind
alone in the universe? If there is intelligent life
elsewhere why have they not contacted us?
It is vital that people understand the devastating
consequences to our spiritual and physical survival if
we fail to take effective action to undo the longstanding
and pervasive effects of alien intervention on
Perhaps the information in these documents will serve as
a stepping stone to a better future for Mankind. I hope
that you can be more clever, creative and courageous in
the distribution of this information than I have been.
May The Gods Bless You and Keep You.

Chapter One
My First Interview With The Alien
"By the time the alien had been returned to the base I had already spent several hours
with her. As I mentioned, Mr. Cavitt told me to stay with the alien, since I was the
only person among us who could understand her communication. I could not
understand my ability to "communicate" with the being. I had never before that time
experienced telepathic communication with anyone.

Graves to challenge Bachmann again in 2014
Hotel magnate Jim Graves announced Thursday that he will seek a rematch against Rep. Michele Bachmann in next year's midterm election. Graves narrowly lost to Bachmann last November (by around 4,300 votes), and the Democrat hopes to once again unseat Bachmann from the most GOP-friendly district in the state.
"These days, Congress is all about scoring political points rather than actually solving problems, and Minnesota's 6th District – my home – is losing out because of that more than anywhere," Graves said in a statement. "I'm not interested in celebrity, only in solutions."
Bachmann's campaign quickly followed the announcement with a web page depicting Graves as a puppet of President Obama and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi. An accompanying video claims that Graves "supports the Obama/Pelosi bailouts."

You didnt necessarily say all of those things specifically, but thats the feeling I got from your general implications.
It's actually somewhat funny seeing my words twisted like that. Oh well, what can I say?
I'll play ball with you, then. Here's what I read from your posts: You hate big multinational corporations, so you want to use the only viable alternative operating system (that fits this ideology of yours) for your PC, which happens to be Linux (there's also *BSD, Haiku, Syllable, etc., but these would be too "geeky" for you). You then decide that since you want Linux but can't put up with the "geekiness" of Linux, that you want to turn Linux into a dumbed-down system...something easy to use like Windows, except without a big company backing it (if Linux was owned by some big company, you would shun it as well due to "corporate distrust", conveniently turning a blind eye to the fact that in recent years, 75% of the code contributed to Linux is from those giant corporations you despise). And then you argue that open-source must fit this vision of yours, and since you're paying money for it (Mint), you must be right and Mint's developers have an obligation to listen to what you say.
Well, unfortunately for you, "voting with your wallet" works only for proprietary software. When you're dealing with a company developing closed-source software, you get to call the shots once you cough up enough money...after all, profit is the only reason proprietary software companies are in business. That doesn't work the same way for open-source software. You want to change something? "Awesome, we'd love to have another contributor to our project! Here's the source code, come talk to us on IRC/mailing lists when you've got a working patch, and we'll merge it with the latest dev branch if it looks like it won't cause any major borkage."
If you still don't get it, this is NOT about money. I'm not even going to bother to refute your last reply...donating money to Mint has no pertinence to the issue at hand here, aside from the belief that you think that money will get you what you want, like in the world of proprietary software. If the sole desire of open-source developers in general was to earn money like their counterparts in proprietary software companies, the open-source movement would long be dead by now. The open source movement was built upon the collaboration of thousands of developers wishing to work together to develop software that fit their collaborative needs, and to do so in a manner which would leave their code open and accessible to all. The open source movement is not about catering to a group of anti-corporate users with some spare change in their hands.

Some people divide the ways we know about our world into two types, Science and Inquiry. Science typically refers to using falsifiable hypotheses to make predictions about the world. Inquiry refers to any deviation or alteration of this method.
For the rest of this post I'm going to talk about fields in which the objective is to control, predict, and improve the behavior of some object (cancer cell, human being, State, whatever). That is the purpose for which the tool of science is most applicable.
Some people further divide Science into two types: Normal Science and Revolutionary Science. These terms from from Kuhn's book, The Structure of Scientific Revolutions. Normal Science, in Thomas Kuhn's original model, was capable of progress but governed by religious-like "paradigms." Revolutionary Science, likewise in Kuhn's outdated model, was capable of freedom but incapable of progress.
I say "original" and "outdated" because no one — except for pretentious modern literature types, and including Kuhn himself — takes that model seriously anymore. While The Structure of Scientific Revolutions was a breakthrough at the time (because it implied that science was not completely free, and that not all science would yield progress), the feedback to the model was intense and Kuhn's model of science rapidly improved.
Instead of two distinct types of Science, Kuhn's revised models described any scientific field as having "exemplars," or examples of how the best research is conducted. Some fields (like structural equation modeling, say) have exemplars which are very similar and allow creativity only within that narrow and defined space. These "Normal" fields are capable of rapid progress. Other fields (like political science, say) have exemplars which are so wide and dispirit that researchers can basically do anything they want, and progress is extremely difficult.
The looser the set of exemplars, the more role there is for "inquiry" within the science. For instance, take my own field (Educational Psychology). My dissertation was a mixed methods inquiry that involved a substantive literature review that stretched back to the 1970s as well as qualitative interviews with participants. That sounds a lot like inquiry and non-science. But my methodological section involved a literature review that went only back to 1999, with most of the work having been published within just a few years of my dissertation. That sounds a lot like science and progress.
One way this matters is that in less-progressive, more scientific, looser-exemplar, fields, "knowledge" and "experience" are both measured in years. The less things change — the less progress is made — the less youth matters relative to years of experience.
The worse your bargaining position as you start in life, the more you find yourself without experience in an experiential field, the harder everything is. In some antiquated and retrogressive societies, workers with poor negotiating position are even told who they may and may not marry.
Of course, it's possible for the young to do well in less progressive fields of study, as the old may do well in more progressive fields of study. It's just that the field is never balanced. Experience pays, and the level of progressive in the field determines how much.

Organic: The Future of Farming
Organic: The Future of Farming
With the world facing economic hardship and looming job deficits, a green revolution beckons.
No, not a green energy revolution…
A green food revolution!
Organic: The Future of Farming
We can sustain the world and our nations' economies in dynamic health and vigor!
Case Study: Peru
In the South American country of Peru, the farming of organic crops has generated at least 33,000 jobs for farmers nationwide. According to Peru's Minister of Agriculture Adolfo de Córdiva Vélez, interest in the practice continues to increase as farmers realize that organic growing is more profitable than traditional methods. In addition, the Ministry of Agriculture is providing support to 9,800 farmers to help enhance organic productivity.
Peruvian Organic Farmer 1 (In Spanish) (M):
One motive is to better our environment and through this, we can give a healthy product to our consumers.
Peruvian Organic Farmer 2 (In Spanish) (M):
I would like to say very much to our compatriots that we should consume organic products because they are healthy and do not bring any kind of disease.
Join the revolution!
Be Veg, Go Green 2 Save the Planet!
Farm for the Future.

Lowcountry more aware of fair safety following N.C. accident
From our News Partners at WCBD-TV:
Some in the Lowcountry say they will be more mindful of rides at the 57th Annual Coastal Carolina Fair this year
Last week, five people were injured after a ride suddenly jolted into gear after coming to a stop. Authorities have charged the ride operator for that accident.
Related Story: 5 people injured in ride accident at NC State Fair
Sandy Diaz has been going to the fair in Ladson for the past 15 years. She said she still has plans to take her two children, although she has more questions about safety.
"It kind of makes me wonder if they are keeping up with their rides as far as the maintenance and whenever the put them up," Diaz said. "Are they putting them up correctly or are they just putting them up so they can start opening the doors?"
Yolanda Williams has also gone to the fair with her children and grandchildren. After hearing about last week's accident, she has concerns about how often the rides are checked.
"It's a big problem, especially if people lose their lives," she said. "I don't think they're checking them good enough. I really don't."
News 2 reached out to officials from the Coastal Carolina Fair and the Exchange Club (that manages the rides) who say they have a three-part system to make sure riders are protected.
"The state of South Carolina inspects any ride that will enter into South Carolina," Joe Bulchoz said. "Secondly, the carnival, of course, has its own safety inspections. The Exchange Club also hires it's own contract safety firm to inspect rides too."
The Coastal Carolina Fair opens on October 31 and runs through November 10.

Does it matter what Linus uses?
Yes, I know LinuxCon is next, and that's in mid-August, but I think they've got the publicity thing covered, especially with the 20-year thing and with Linus being there and all. But if you're going to the next show, make it the Ohio LinuxFest in September. Bradley Kuhn and Cathy Malmrose are keynoting, so you'll not want to miss that (especially Cathy — Go ZaReason!)
First things first: I'm certainly not calling out Marcel Gagne for getting it wrong in a recent blog post — the "it" in question is that Linus Torvalds uses Linux Mint. On the contrary — to his credit Marcel corrected himself and, hey, it could have happened to anyone.
Also, we're not going to go to the GNOME thing right now, at least not right way, despite the fact there has been a parade of "me toos" following Linus' unhappiness with GNOME's new desktop offering.
But it occurred to me today after reading Marcel's mea culpa that, in the grand scheme of FOSS things, it really doesn't matter what Linus uses. Before you all collectively brand me a heretic, allow me to explain.
Linus has been quoted in the past as being a Fedora user, because it worked on the PowerPC hardware he was using. That's great — he joins thousands of others using Fedora. He may not be one now, and if that's the case he'd join thousands of others not using Fedora. There's also an instance in the past — the distant past, as opposed to a week or two ago — where he switched desktop environments.
All that's OK.
It means Linus is like us.
Think about it. Which of us has not switched distros or desktop environments? Which of us has not expressed extreme displeasure over a program or desktop environment and made that dissatisfaction public on mailing lists and/or forums? We certainly allow ourselves the luxury of making these switches — on a whim or more — so shouldn't we grant that same right to the man who brought us where we are today?
The question isn't so much "What distro does Linus use?" as much as possibly "How many distros does Linus use?" Think about it and put yourself in Linus' shoes. You have your favorites, and so does he. If you have a chance, and the hardware, to use more than one distro, wouldn't you? I bet Linus would.
Or not, if you — or Linus — are really enamored and happy with one and truly want to stick with it.
I am primarily a Fedora guy — that has been mentioned in this blog often in the past. But while Fedora KDE runs on my constant companion, also known as "the football" and the laptop that never leaves my side, I also have machines running Debian, Kororaa and CrunchBang (we're going to need a moment of silence for a recently departed Fujitsu laptop once running Bodhi Linux, which went to its final rest through no fault of the distro).
Why four different distros? Simple: It's because I like those distros and I have the hardware that will run them.
And that's as it should be.

Sem-Sandberg, Steve. The Emperor of Lies
In 1940, the second largest Jewish ghetto in Poland was established in the town of Lodz. Placed in control of this ghetto by the Nazi regime was a figure still controversial and compelling today, Mordechai Rumkowski. A failed businessman, a bullying insurance agent, Rumkowski was by all accounts brash, egomaniacal, and deeply insecure. But he could also be oddly generous and loving, fancying himself a savior to the weak and the innocent. After his wife's death in 1936, he established a Kinderkolonie, an orphanage for Jewish children. He encouraged the orphans to look on him as a father figure, going so far as to sprinkle candy in their midst on his visits, ensuring they would always run up to and after him.
And, just as he tried to protect the orphans under his care, he attempted to protect the Jewish inhabitants of the Lodz ghetto. He knew, or believed he knew, that if he could only demonstrate to the Nazis the usefulness of the Jews, they would be spared the camps. And so he turned the entire ghetto into a massive industrial complex, forcing the inhabitants to work long hours under brutal conditions, producing furniture and clothing for German citizens and camoflage, foorwear, jackets, and buckles for the Wehrmacht.
And so the central question in Sem-Sandberg's novel is this: Was Rumkowski a collaborator or a liberator? A sinner, or a saint? A good man who made a difficult choice, or an evil man exploiting his position for personal gain?
The novel opens 2 years into the life of the ghetto, when Rumkowski is forced to annouce that 20,000 inhabitants will be deported from th ghetto, sent to the camps. It goes backwards and forwards in time from there, exploring both Rumkowski's past and personal life as well as the lives and daily torments of the inhabitants of the ghetto. While Rumkowski is the central figure, the author's scope is much wider, utilizing an immersive richness of detail and a large, almost Dickensian cast to illuminate this place and this time in a three-dimensional fashion seldom attempted in fiction. Sem-Sandberg's use of archival materials in reconstructing ghetto life lends his novel historical accuracy and a certain legitimacy, while the fiction format allows the reader to empathize and understand the plight of those within ghetto walls in a way non-fiction seldom does. A challenging, difficult, and ultimately illuminating work.

QB Andy Dalton - QUALITY BACKUP
Dalton faces plenty of scrutiny and criticism in Cincinnati. Even after a stellar 2013 season statistically, he isn't thought of as an excellent QB. He did struggle in big moments (especially against the pass rush); however, if you look deeper at the numbers, the fantasy production is there. Dalton threw for 4,296 yards last season and accounted for 35 TDs. His interceptions are high, but if he can get them under control, he can better establish himself as a big-time fantasy QB. He has the talent around him with tremendous young weapons like A.J Green, Marvin Jones and Giovani Bernard. It remains to be seen whether or not new offensive coordinator Hue Jackson will revert to a more run-focused attack as he is known for. Fewer attempts doesn't necessarily equate to a major decrease in passing numbers and it could actually create less turnovers. A more effective ground game would also give Dalton more time in the pocket and improve the efficiency of play-action. With his rookie contract on the verge of expiring, all eyes will be on Dalton. It's time for the former TCU QB to take that next step, much like Eli Manning and Joe Flacco did when they were questioned whether they could lead a team to a championship. All questions aside, Dalton should be drafted in all formats at least as a backup who can occasionally post QB1 totals when the matchup is favorable.
QB Jason Campbell - NOT DRAFT WORTHY
Campbell has floated around the NFL since leaving the Redskins some years ago. He is now on his fourth team in as many years coming to the Bengals from Cleveland this offseason. If Campbell does get an opportunity to start on the off-chance Dalton is injured, the former Auburn QB has some limited value as a bye week fill-in. Until that moment though, he has no fantasy value.
Check out our preseason rankings! Log-in and you can customize them with your league's scoring settings.
QB A.J. McCarron - NOT DRAFT WORTHY
McCarron has a championship pedigree. The rookie was drafted in the fifth round out of Alabama. His draft stock dropped, in part due to his arrogant persona (he reportedly rubbed a lot of teams the wrong way in pre-draft interviews). He is not NFL ready just yet and likely will not see any playing time in the immediate future. Even if Dalton goes down, Campbell will most likely be next in line to start. It doesn't help that McCarron has dealt with "arm soreness" during mandatory minicamp. Expect nothing out of McCarron this season. Dalton would have to really falter over the next season or two to give McCarron much dynasty appeal.
RB Giovani Bernard - STUD (LOW RISK)
Giovani Bernard was the first running back drafted in the 2013 NFL Draft for good reason. He has all the tools teams want and need out of a running back. Still, he's in a somewhat crowded backfield after the Bengals drafted Jeremy Hill out of LSU. Bernard's talent may very well overpower all of that. This guy is quick, explosive, can catch, run, and make plays all over the field. He can make defenders miss and can be a big-play threat every time he touches the ball. The Bengals started Bernard off slow last season, but by the year's end he was clearly their best option. Early reports out of camp are Bernard is the top back and is seeing some split back looks paired with the aforementioned Hill. You can expect a thunder-and-lightning look from the Bengals with Bernard earning the majority of touches. Giovani Bernard is a RB1 in all formats and his youth and pass-catching ability only further raises his value in PPR and dynasty leagues.
Editor's note: One facet regarding Bernard, if I may rain on his parade, is his size. One big hit and Bernard's season could be over. He has some decent girth; however, the second-year back isn't exactly built to handle 20-plus carries week after week. It'll be interesting to see how the Bengals opt to both limit his exposure to injury while also maximizing his talent.
RB Jeremy Hill - FANTASY HANDCUFF
LSU rookie Jeremy Hill has all the talent to succeed on-the-field, although off-the-field may be another story. Hill faced assault charges while in college. Cincinnati is also known for taking chances on character-concern players. In two seasons at LSU, Hill amassed over 2,000 yards, 28 touchdowns and averaged 6.2 yards per carry. He is a big powerful back with just enough speed. Early reports out of camp are that Hill has already jumped BenJarvus Green-Ellis on the depth chart and is being used in some split back looks with featured back Giovani Bernard. How many touches Hill will get is yet to be known, yet he is no doubt the leading candidate to be Bernard's handcuff. Jeremy Hill is definitely worth a pick in dynasty leagues. He has less value in PPR leagues. Expect him to be slammed between the tackles and perhaps flirting with flex potential if he earns goal-line and short-yardage opportunities.
RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis - LOW POTENTIAL
Green-Ellis is a reliable back, but due to the Bengals drafting rookie running backs in consecutive seasons, his fantasy value has plummeted. Giovani Bernard is the lead back and rookie Jeremy Hill has already jumped Green-Ellis on the depth chart. The only bright side for "The Law Firm" is new offensive coordinator Hue Jackson. He likes to run the ball with multiple backs, so if there is an injury, BJGE will be right back in the mix. Until then, he has very little fantasy value and can be skipped over for a runner with more upside.
WR A.J. Green - STUD (LOW RISK)
A.J. Green is a superstar, plain and simple. He can do it all: great hands, route-running and athleticism. Green can go across the middle, beat defenses deep, take a screen to the house or pull down a TD in a crowd. After his breakout rookie year, Green has followed up with back-to-back monster seasons averaging 97.5 receptions, 11 TDs and just under 1,400 yards. He is a Top 5 fantasy receiver and may very well be the second-best receiver in the NFL after Calvin Johnson. In 2013, Marvin Jones emerged as a second option at wideout. This had very little effect on Green's fantasy numbers and will most likely help in the long run as defenses are forced to monitor Jones and the Bengals' talented backfield. It is always good for a star receiver to have a player opposite him to take some pressure off. Green will be drafted and started in all formats and likely in the first round because of his 7.03 ADP. Expect over 90 catches and double-digit touchdowns in 2014.
Editor's note: With top RBs becoming more scarce and top WRs becoming more prevalent, receivers like Green are climbing into the first round because of their unquestioned certainty to produce huge stats. Last year was an especially difficult year for backs and this in turn has made receivers a popular safety net in the early rounds. Green is about as safe as they come in this game.
WR Marvin Jones - SUPER SLEEPER
Marvin Jones had a nice sophomore season opposite A.J. Green. Jones caught 51 passes for 712 yards and scored an impressive 10 touchdowns. Expect much of the same from this former Cal pass-catcher. While Green will eat up many of Cincinnati's targets, there is no reason Jones can't score and take advantage of lots of man-to-man coverage. Jones is a very good bye week fill-in; especially if he gets hot the way he did last year. Additionally, if Green were to get hurt, Jones would become a must-add receiver across all formats. If you believe in the ability of receivers to really come into their own in their third years, 2014 is Jones' year to blow up.
WR Dane Sanzenbacher - NOT DRAFT WORTHY
Sanzenbacher is the front runner to replace Andrew Hawkins (Cleveland Browns) in the slot. He will be the fourth option after A.J. Green, Marvin Jones and Mohamed Sanu, although he is not guaranteed the job. He will have to beat out teammates Brandon Tate, Ryan Whalen and Cobi Hamilton. The fact that the Bengals signed him to a $1.2 million contract about three weeks after Hawkins departed would lead you to believe he is the front-runner for playing time. With Hue Jackson responsible for the offense now, there is no way a the Bengals' No. 4 receiver will make a fantasy impact. Sanzenbacher should not be drafted in any format.
WR Mohamed Sanu - LOW POTENTIAL
Rutgers alumnus Mohamad Sanu emerged as a decent third option in Cincinnati, although he must continue to improve in order to win the hearts and minds of fantasy owners. He holds his most value in PPR leagues because of his possession receiver talents. He is not a big play guy, but can make the tough catches to move the chains. If Marvin Jones were to get hurt, Sanu would almost certainly be the man to step into his role. Sanu is only draft worthy in very deep leagues and that's because of his potential, not because of anything he has yet accomplished. His lack of TDs and yards per catch really hurt his fantasy value in standard formats.
TE Tyler Eifert - GAMBLE (HIGH RISK)
DYNASTY CASH-IN: Tyler Eifert had a less than stellar rookie season splitting targets with fellow tight end Jermaine Gresham. Gresham slightly outperformed the first round pick out of Notre Dame. Many are predicting Eifert to have a breakout season, but that may not be in the cards. He has to compete with Giovani Bernard, Jermaine Gresham, Mohamad Sanu, and Dane Sanzenbacher for short yardage targets while also showing more progress as a blocker. This also doesn't include the immense talent of A.J. Green and blossoming skill-set of Marvin Jones. New offensive coordinator Hue Jackson is believed to adopt a more run-oriented scheme. So don't be shocked if Eifert once again fails to reach the 50-catch and 500-yard plateaus necessary to come close to fantasy relevance. Despite the low expectations, Eifert isn't a popular sleeper choice as most fantasy owners really believe he may need another year to improve his game. He is currently ranked as the No. 16 tight end based on his 141.32 ADP, but is more likely closer to 20th when it comes to performance. Eifert is a capable TE2 with upside and dynasty owners should be prepared to go in a different direction in case he's not ready.
Editor's note: There isn't much offensive optimism in Cincinnati. The consensus is that the team likely overachieved across the board last year. This doesn't have anybody excited about a player like Eifert who was once-believed to be the best TE in his draft class.
TE Jermaine Gresham - BYE WEEK FILL-IN
A lot was made of the Bengals drafting Tyler Eifert in the first round of the 2013 NFL Draft. Still, Jermaine Gresham managed to outperform him in all major stat categories. The two are now splitting targets, which really decreases their value to the point that neither is particularly appealing. One of the two might be get hot in any given week, yet it's near impossible to know which one is worth starting on any given Sunday. Both are interchangeable, although Gresham is a better blocker and tougher when in-line blocking. Gresham is a very low TE2 with little upside.
PK Mike Nugent - QUALITY BACKUP
Mike Nugent has been a decent kicker through his 10-year career. He racks up extra points in Cincinnati, yet the Bengals' inability to more reliable get into field goal range is a concern. He made just 18 FGs last year, by far his lowest total in any season with 16 games played. Take a pass on this former Ohio State kicker.
DST Cincinnati - SOLID/SAFE PICK
The Bengals have one of the best young defenses in all of football. The Cincy D was ravaged by injury in 2013, but the return of star DT Geno Atkins (and a healthy secondary) should have a huge impact. Cincy can stop the run and get at the quarterback with their very tough defensive front. Their line backing core is anchored by young talented players like Vontaze Burfict and Vincent Rey. Expect a big season from the Bengals defense after slipping at the end of 2013. The loss of defensive coordinator will be a big factor. The Bengals should be drafted in all leagues and started consistently against the great majority of team defenses. Cincinnati has a starter-quality team defense and it's also possible the finish among the Top 5.

Soccer Star Hope Solo on Big Dreams and Beauty Routines
Talking ambition, hope and skincare with one of the inspiring women who will be representing the U.S.A in London this summer!
-April Daniels Hussar, sponsored by Simple Skincare
Goalkeeper of the U.S. Women's National Soccer Team Hope Solo always wanted to be a soccer player. "I think I was twelve years old when our teacher asked us to write a paper on what you wanted to be when you grew up," she told me last week at an event announcing that she is teaming up with Simple Skincare. "I said when I grew up I wanted to be a professional soccer player! And it's pretty cool because back in the early-nineties, there was no professional women's soccer."
Pretty cool indeed!
"There were a lot of different things that could have sent me on a different path," Hope said when I asked what advice she has for young girls with big dreams. "A lot of things that could have made me hang up the cleats and find a different career, but I just stayed on the path through every obstacle, every challenge, and let that passion breed inside of me, and never let go of the dream."
As soon as I got home from the event I shared this with my own little girl. What an inspiration! Hope Solo, for those of you who don't know, is widely considered one of the best goal-keepers in the WORLD. She was the starting goalkeeper for the United States in the 2007 and 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup, and brought home the gold from the 2008 games in Beijing. Hope is on the current cover of Vogue, and was recently named an AOL MAKER for her pioneering contributions to women's soccer. (By the way, The AOL MAKER initiative by PBS and AOL is a really awesome digital video and broadcast program that aims to become not only the largest but also the most dynamic collection of women's stories ever assembled — some of Hope's fellow makers are Hillary Clinton and Ellen DeGeneres. Check it out at makers.com).
Of course, we turned to talk of skin care … Hope has struggled with sensitive skin for nearly a decade, and she told me that Simple approached her after the World Cup because they appreciate healthy and balanced way she lives her life.
Does it make sense to have a sports hero rep a skincare line? Yes, says Hope. "A lot of people can relate to athletes," she says. "They help bring confidence to young girls — you can be a confident and strong woman and still be feminine and beautiful."
Watch the video of our chat, where you can see what Hope loves about Simple Skincare, her favorite products, and how even an accomplished, professional athlete can get her confidence shaken when she has to face millions of viewers on a bad skin day!

Author Tan's Book Reviews
The Bonesetter's Daughter
This is a story of China in the days before and after the revolution, and an age-old story of the tension between mothers and daughters that is so difficult to define and so easy to identify with. Ruth Young and her mother, LuLing, have a tortured but magnetic relationship, a bond that involves superstitions, ghosts and criticisms that come close to destroying Ruth both as a child and as an adult. Her mother's daily fear of the ghost of her mother, w...
The Joy Luck Club
The Joy Luck Club was a club between four women during World War II in China; to escape the daily struggles and perils of living in this difficult time period, four ordinary women met to play mah-johng, talk, and strive to believe that good times would soon arrive. Later, as the women moved on with their lives to America, they realized that many of their intentions--their hopes for their children--could not be realized for a variety of reasons. They st...
The Kitchen God's Wife
This novel is about Pearl Louie and her mother, Winnie. The complexities and tensions between a mother and daughter are subtle, yet poignant at times. Tan describes the trials of being an immigrant in the United States through the character Winnie, and the problems of growing up torn between one's racial heritage, and one's national heritage (being born in the United States as a minority). The story is moved along by the discovery of a family "secret"...

Tan's mother is described as a woman bogged down by many secrets from her past life in China, and a captivating woman deluded with superstitions. These secrets and superstitions shap...

As a result of the search warrant Ronald M. Patterson and Michelle A. Thompson were arrested and charged with one count each of Manufacturing Methamphetamine and Unlawful Disposal of Meth Waste.
Patterson and Thompson were transported to the Sheriff Al Cannon Detention Center and lodged pending a bond hearing scheduled Wednesday at 10 a.m.

Historical Perspectives
Ministers get control over religious places (JERUSALEM POST) By JEREMY SHARON 05/01/12)
Source: http://www.jpost.com/NationalNews/Article.aspx?id=268166
JERUSALEM POST Articles-Index-Top
The Ministerial Committee for Legislation approved a bill Sunday morning that would give the interior minister and religious services minister the final say in the destruction or rezoning of all religious buildings in the country.
According to the bill, introduced by Shas MK Avraham Michaeli, there are many instances in which buildings that have been used for religious purposes for many years are slated for destruction or rezoning that would constitute a desecration of the sites holiness and disregard the sensitivities of religious communities.
The bill also cites restrictions within Jewish law for changing the designated use of a building or property from holy to non-sanctified purposes.
However, MK Nitzan Horowitz of Meretz expressed sharp opposition to the bill, stating that it constituted an attempt by Interior Minister Eli Yishai and Religious Services Minister Yaacov Margi, both of Shas, to take control over religious properties.
In addition, Horowitz claimed that the bill was also designed to give immunity for many buildings in the West Bank. If the bill is passed, he said, any building could be casually designated as a study hall or a basement of a synagogue and thus its destruction could be prevented.
The intent of this bill is clear: Granting immunity to every structure, particularly in the territories, which are defined as religious buildings, and the granting of veto rights to the Shas interior minister and religious services minister on everything connected to religious buildings, Horowitz said. This is another expression of the obsequiousness of the government before the true rulers of the state: Settler and haredi politicos.
The bill was co-sponsored by several national-religious and haredi MKs, including Michael Ben-Ari, Uri Ariel and Arye Eldad of the National Union; Uri Maklev and Yisrael Eichler of United Torah Judaism; David Azoulay, Amnon Cohen, Nissim Zeev and Yitzhak Vaknin of Shas; and Danny Danon and Tzipi Hotovely of Likud.
In response to Horowitzs criticism, Danon told The Jerusalem Post that the bill was designed to preserve the values and character of Israel as a Jewish state. He added that the Likud-led government had worked hard in this regard in the past three years, and would continue to do so after the Likuds victory in the coming elections.
The State of Israel is the state of the Jewish people, said Danon.
Only by preserving its religious values, including the provision of a special status for religious buildings, will we succeed in preserving the character of Israel as the homeland of the Jewish people. (© 1995-2011, The Jerusalem Post 05/01/12)
