Fantasy Football Metrics
Fantasy Football Metrics is a concept designed around the "Moneyball" philosophy; the idea of studying and developing Metrics to uncover hidden value and opportunity in putting a Fantasy Football team together. If you want to hear that all the top players from last year, are magically the best options for this year too...you won't enjoy our analysis.
We are an alternative to the mainstream media-hype and groupthink for Fantasy Football. We are businessmen and statisticians (and passionate Fantasy/Football fans) coming together to find a mathematical / statistical edge within Fantasy Football. You can't watch every game, or know every player's background; we couldn't either, so we build computer models to tell us about these players based on performance and measurables from college to the pros.
Our draft guide was designed to be an "anti-magazine." Since magazine draft guide data is two-to-four weeks old by the time it hits the marketplace, our desire is to have the latest information out ahead of any magazine or website.
When you purchase our draft guide, you are not merely getting a one-time snapshot in time, you are receiving live access to our updates right up to the season's kickoff.
Rate your team any time of the year using Fantasy Football Metrics projections and powerful win-based math.
We'll bring you scoring data, stats, rankings, research, trending and metrics every week throughout the Fantasy Football season to help assist in the weekly decision making process and gain an statistical edge over your competition.
One of our most popular features we have is our Preseason and Regular Season Game Recaps with a Fantasy Football angle. We watch every game, every week, and report back on every game as to what pertinent Fantasy Football items we witnessed - we go deeper than the obvious.
We discuss hidden moments from the game, the lesser-known players making a move, etc. It's hard to put it into words; We would just encourage you to go onto our website, enter into the blog area, and click on a team of interest, and scroll back through 2013 to see the various Week-by-Week Fantasy Football game recaps, etc. You'll be hooked once you do.
It is the best spend of internet time you will have during the football season, whether killing time pretending to do your job at your workplace or just taking an extended break on the toilet. Trust us.
You've heard of "speed dating", well this is "speed Fantasy Football Mock Drafting".

Frau Schuster was very sweet and helpful They gave my room away at 22.00 and the reservation said that we had the room until 23.00, so we had to stay in alternative room without bath.
Nothing good Very cold room. No towel, no soap, mould everywhere especially in the bathroom. No credi card accepted. Very poor internet connection. The swimpool exist but is out of order. The receptionist didn't check booking reservation. No car parking. You have to arrange by yourself.
The room was basic and very cold, The decoration was poor with cracks in the wall and plaster missing. The shower fittings needed repair. The hotel supplied tea towel sized towels were totally inadequate for taking a shower. No soap supplied. Very poor value for money. The staff had very poor english, which is unusual in my experience. They had a very good grip of asking for their money and insisting on cash payment only! The breakfast consisted of dry rolls and coffee. If you wanted tea or anything else you had to go down to the kitchen and ask for it. Service was slow or non-existent! The evening meal food was okay but very expensive and the service slow. All in all a rip-off!
all the best everything was very good
The meals are very good and there is a good selection to chose from on the menu. The people are very friendly and very helpful. The dining area inside and out is very quaint and comfortable.
excellent location, very good breakfast
Extremely friendly, family-run hotel and restaurant. Outstanding room size and comfort and the restaurant was so good (with extremely fair prices) that we would go out of our way just to enjoy the experience again. Easy to find, just off the A9, but at the edge of the village and very quiet - the best location for our needs. The hotel had been added to and modernized over the years, so be careful on the stairs between sections. Not difficult, but sometimes unexpected. Still, a lovely hotel.
Alles super!
on monday there is no restaurant
The friendly and competent staff headed by the family owners. Fantastic German restaurant. Highly recommend and will stay there again when in the area.
We only stayed for one night and it was cloose to the motorway. We had good food and fine service. The souranundings was not very charming but the hotel fulfilled our expectations for one night
The quietness during the night
Close to autobahn (2 minutes' drive) but still quiet (NB our room faced away from the autobahn - you'd be a bit more aware of traffic on the other side of the hotel). Large comfortable room with balcony. Good food in an inn which felt very traditional. Pleasant village setting.
Easy to go to Nurenberg, Munchen. Altmuhltal very nice. In the triple room the bathroom good be bigger
Breakfast Buffet, spotless rooms, beautiful locale No
A good hotel for a transit stay. Very cosy restaurant with local and friendly atmosphere.
The proprietor was extremely helpful about helping us to check in online for our flight
the staff was very friendly, a cozy hotel
We knew that the place was quite cheap, but it was our big surprise to find out that it was located in a very nice area and that the staff were very friendly. In addition nice breakfast was included in the low price, with high quality good bread,including local speciality - Prezel - really delicious! For some more money it was possible to get a lovely dinner in a huge amount! We were there for Easter Sunday and were nicely surprised to see decorated eggs and a lamb shaped cake on our table at breakfast. A very nice welcoming touch! the only thing which I didn't quite like was the fact that the restaurant open for the public was in the same building as the hotel and our room was located near to it. On our last night (out of 3) it got quite loud till after midnight, but it was a special occasion, local people won a bowling competition against Augsburg! Quite a success for a small village!
More like a small inn than hotel, complete with excellent owner/chef, friendly staff and nice location near castle. Rooms were very recently remodeled in contemporary light wood w/colorful accents. Free parking. Terrace. Delicious dinner menu. Hotel located about 25 minutes from Ingolstadt train station for transport to Munich.
Very friendly and attentive staff. Clean and spacious rooms. Strange smell from wardrobe.
Very friendly manager and excellent food
Hotel was very enjoyable. Rooms were large, clean and modern. Very quite in the evenings. The room had a large flat screen TV with multiple english stations. Staff was extremly helpful and friendly. Spoke excellent english. Food was excellent, not fancy, just good hardy german food. Nice beer garden out front. Free parking and internet service. My laptop would not work on their system and the owner allowed me to use his personnal laptop. Location is close to Ingelstadt for the Audi factory and outlet stores.
Staff was very friendly. The hotel was really clean, chapeau.
It was cosy and peaceful, I think I got what I wanted. There was not the mechanical ventilation in the room.
Great location, nice hotel, access to a garage was very useful despite the extra cost. 0700 hr checkout is not good, there is no good reason for such an early checkout
No elevator
The hotel was charming and in a marvellous position in this beautiful little historic walled town, right by the Ellinger Tor with easy access to Nurnberg in the North and Munich in the south. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, very comfortable. A lovely breakfast room with good choices and excellent service. Free parking was very handy too, just a short walk through the town gate. We enjoyed everything about the charming hotel and helpful staff.
The hotel staff was very friendly and customer oriented. The food in the restaurant was excellent.
Very good matrass. Big room. Nice people. The kitchen smell was noticable in the upper region of the hotel,so the kitchen need a new venting system imho.
location good, in the rural area with big rooms; very quiet and on the country side. no, everything was perfect.
Internet "out of service", unfriendly hotel staff
The hotel was very convenient for us as we were travelling between Munich and Nuremberg. The room was a good size and beds were comfortable. Staff were pleasant and friendly and could speak good english too! There was a very slight strange smell about the place! It was possibly a dampness or may have been stale smoke. It was noticable in the room too, and in the morning I was more aware of having smelled it all night long. The room was a non smoking room, but due to the age of the building, and the oak beams in the room, it could be that they had kept the smell of previous smoke. My husband didnt notice anything, so it might just have been me!
staff, kitchen
The hotel has won awards for its food which was very good and that is what we enjoyed most. The location was remote - a long way from Kipfenberg where we thought it was located. The staff had a poor grasp of English and it seemed to us that they were not geared up to the international market.
beautiful old part of country town and quiet environs
Excellent location on village square. Pleasant terraced beer garden. I have enjoyed a previous stay.
Hotel is situated on the quiet place and keep a good table ounly a few parking places
very friendly staff
Nice atmosphere in restaurant, food was good. Breakfast was very good and served from 06.30 so able to get early start for rest of our journey. Bathroom had no towel rails, so no where to hang up wet towels, Ok for overnight stay but would be annoying if staying longer.
Beer garden
My friends and I thoroughly enjoyed our four day stay.Nothing was too much trouble even if we had special requests.
good breakfast, nice location and very comfort hotel wireless internet was not working.
The breakfast. Rich and the owner asked us what else we need except for what's on the table. Small parking
Very kind staff. Good and clean room for two. Free parking. Close to good evening meal restaurants. Breakfast was ok.
Good location close to autobahn for overnight stop en route to the Adriatic; inexpensive. No restaurant, but two within 100 metres
The peacefullness of the environment and the hotel itself. The nature surrounding the hotel is beautiful.
food room far too small, and only small roof window. No climate control, so don't visit when it's above 25 centigrade
A nice place to stay, close enough tu Nuernberg. Also the site as such offers joy to nature-lovers.
The peacefully countryside - very relaxing. Nice people. Quiet little beautiful city.
The staff was very friendly, the food was fine - everything was just fine.
Gasthof Krone is a nice place for an individual traveler and it's located in a beautiful and peaceful country town. The staff are very kind. I like country style room.
breakfast was good the room had a verry small window (we booked two rooms with a balkony but those rooms were not available for a one night stay)
Very, very nice and competent people working there. Good food in the restuarant and nice to find a safe place to park my motorbike! No complaints
the hotel was peaceful
Breakfast is good Single room with sink and shower in the room itself (no separate bathroom). Location is not nice, Hotel is marked as a 3 star hotel, although it is one or two maximum.
The friendly atmosphere. We also liked the location that was magnificent by having a great sunny day. The staff is very competent and service is best.
This was an excellent hotel - very friendly staff (not much English but we got on fine). The room was beautiful, and very clean. The restaurant was good, and the tour of the Schnapps making was interesting (I had a translator!). I thought it very good value for money. Note that other reviews may be good but as they are in Genrma it is difficult to assess.
I liked the historic building, the beautiful furniture and the excellent meals
Comfortable, attractive, very helpful staff despite my embarrassing inability to speak German

The Baltimore Ravens continued to hit the practice field yesterday on day two of their mandatory mini-camp this week. Some interesting storylines came out of Owings Mills yesterday including a scuffle between two players.
On-field Scuffle
A scuffle broke out on the Ravens practice field yesterday as Jah Reid and Courtney Upshaw tossed some punches. Upshaw and Reid locked up and Reid's helmet was even popped off and Reid threw several punches, most of which were blanks not landing anywhere. Head Coach John Harbaugh stepped in and stopped the fight before Upshaw could throw any punches of his own. It is unknown who started the skirmish.
Another scuffle almost broke out when Elvis Dumervil and Michael Oher nearly came to blows as well, but both did the manly thing and backed off and cooler heads prevailed.
Ngata was a limited participant for the second straight day as he is working his way back from a sprained left knee that he suffered in the Super Bowl. The primary focuses for Ngata have been to work on his conditioning and range of motion for the knee. Ngata knows there is no reason to push it at this point in the offseason and plans to be 100% by the start of training camp.
Limited Participants
There are several players at the mini-camp who were practicing on a limited basis yesterday: cornerback Lardarius Webb (ACL), linebackers Arthur Brown (sports hernia surgery), Jameel McClain (spinal cord contusion) and Albert McClellan (shoulder surgery) and wide receiver Marlon Brown (ACL).
Not Practicing
Four players did not practice yesterday: offensive guard Marshal Yanda (shoulder surgery), nose guard Terrence Cody (hip surgery), defensive lineman Kapron Lewis-Moore (ACL) and offensive lineman Antoine McClain (foot surgery).
Today is the final day of the three day mini-camp and with the weather in the area the Ravens will likely practice indoors.

Predictive Model
Stiltgrass Natural History
Maps of Spread
Management Recommendations
The most efficient way to manage invasive species is by Early Detection and Rapid Response (EDRR). To do this effectively, property managers need to know where to focus their search efforts for new invaders. This model should help to predict areas with high risk of invasion.
In general, the most likely sites to be invaded are those that are along corridors, such as roads, trails, and streams. Areas where water runs off from existing invasions and disturbed areas are also at high risk.
The surveys we have conducted of harvested sites suggest that the most successful way to minimize invasion of timber harvest sites is to eliminate Japanese stiltgrass in the log yard and other areas near the harvest site. Applying a grass-specific herbicide in these areas the season prior to harvesting could greatly reduce the seed bank and seed spread on machinery into the harvest site. This is a simple low-cost solution since the area to be treated prior to harvest is relatively small.
Other potential methods to reduce invasion are to add an annual seed mix to disturbed areas such as skidder trails and log yards after harvests and cleaning thorourghly cleaning equipment between sites.
A more comprehensive fact sheet on management of Japanese stiltgrass written by Luke Flory can be found here.

MANILA (Reuters) - A super typhoon that devastated the central Philippines is expected to curb growth and push up inflation in the coming months, but the damage is unlikely to dent the country's new-found status as Southeast Asia's rising economic star.
Typhoon Haiyan, one of the strongest tropical storms on record, tore through the centre of the archipelago on Friday, killing an estimated 10,000 people in one city alone, destroying homes, roads and bridges and flattening crops.
Finance Secretary Cesar Purisima said the economic damage in the mostly agricultural region would likely shave 1 percentage point off of growth in national gross domestic product (GDP) in 2014, but added that the World Bank estimates the annual typhoon season typically drags on the country's growth by 0.8 percent of GDP.
"Fixation over numbers at this stage is not going to be useful," Purisima, the top finance ministry official, told reporters in Manila. "I was overwhelmed by the pictures, not the numbers."
The Philippines, once derided as the "sick man of Asia", notched up growth of 6.6 percent last year, second only to China in the region, and improving public finances saw its credit rating lifted this year to investment grade for the first time.
Officials in Manila have been confident that 2013 growth will exceed their 6-7 percent target, and the IMF in September estimated this year's GDP growth at 6.75 percent.
Private-sector economists said the impact of the storm on fourth-quarter growth would be relatively modest.
That is partly because, while the affected region is home to around 20 percent of the Philippines' population, its contribution to the national economy is smaller - only around 12.5 percent of GDP, according to Purisima.
Citi economist Jun Trinidad said in a note that netting out the contribution of the worst-hit areas from the bank's fourth quarter GDP estimates still gave full-year growth of 6.8 percent, compared with a pre-typhoon range of 7.3-7.5 percent.
Economists at Nomura wrote: "In terms of the typhoon's impact of the overall economic outlook, as tragic as the event is, we think it does not change the fundamentally strong macro picture that is making the country a regional stand-out.
"Its effects on this year's growth are likely to be short-lived, posing only a relatively small downside risk to our 2013 GDP growth forecast of 7.3 percent."
Economists say growth usually rebounds quickly after natural disasters, due to the lift from spending on reconstruction.
The flow of remittance payments from the millions of Filipinos working overseas that are a mainstay of the economy could also increase in response to the disaster, deputy central bank governor Diwa Guinigundo said.
The overall financial cost of the destruction wreaked by Haiyan is harder to immediately assess. Initial estimates varied widely, with a report from German-based CEDIM Forensic Disaster Analysis putting the total at $8 billion to $19 billion.
Daniel Martin, at Capital Economics, pointed out in a note that looking at GDP alone can under-represent the negative impact of a disaster and overstate the recovery.
"GDP does not capture the destruction of assets but does record spending to replace them," he said.
Farm output in the affected region, where the biggest crops are sugar cane and rice, is likely to have been devastated, which, combined with supply disruptions caused by damaged infrastructure, is likely to push up food prices and stoke inflation.
"While the economic impact will be limited, the impact on inflation is likely to be more drastic, with supply shocks pushing up headline inflation in coming months," said HSBC economist Trinh Nguyen in a note.
We expect inflation to accelerate going into 2014, but it should remain manageable and stay within the central bank's 3-5 percent target." (Additional reporting by Viparat Jantraprapaweth in Bangkok; Writing by Alex Richardson; Editing by Neil Fullick)

Dear Carolyn • My boyfriend constantly picks up on little things about me (too many boxes of Cheerios, the names of romance novels on my shelf, the colors of garments in my closet) and needles me about them. Not every minute, but regularly, and when he's done with those, he finds something else. I've raised some protest, saying that in a relationship, it doesn't help to have the unflattering obvious mentioned over and over again. He says "inside jokes" are a sign of fondness and bring people closer. He says I must be laughing on the inside. I'm not. I get that a lot of relationships today have a lot of sarcastic banter. But he doesn't seem to get that that's not the way I operate. I come away enervated and, frankly, find myself moving things out of view to avoid his turning them into a punch line. Though the rest of the relationship is going fine, this observational comedy has got to go. Any way to make it go without making him go?
Dear A. • You're both talking in this-applies-to-everyone "shoulds," with a side of generalization on "relationships today," when both of you need to talk about just-between-us specifics. Nothing matters except the way you two actually get along. So, discard your "Relationships should be safe from dwelling on the 'unflattering obvious,'" and discard his "You should be laughing at this," and what do you have? This: His idea of "fondness" annoys you, and you both think it's the other one who needs to change. It's that attitude that "has got to go." Suppressing a part of yourself just to avoid confrontation is a short-term remedy that I don't even recommend in the short-term unless the problem is really truly wholly going to go away on its own, soon. This one has proven it won't. Stating your objections and deciding whether you can live with his response, on the other hand, is a long-term solution; ignoring him when he gets like this and/or developing a thicker skin is a long-term solution, as long as you both can be genuinely playful about it; concluding that anyone who tells you how you're supposed to feel is a bad bet becomes a long-term solution when you find the guts to break up.

Welcome to the Interdisciplinary Education Homepage
Ph.D. in the Curriculum and Instruction Program with a concentration in Interdisciplinary Education
Concentration Description
The Interdisciplinary Education doctoral concentration provides a framework to support innovative, boundary-crossing inquiry among students and faculty across campus. Designed to foster research that approaches problems in education from interdisciplinary perspectives, the program allows students who have academic backgrounds and interests that span multiple disciplines to construct an individualized program of study grounded in at least two disciplines/fields, one of which may be outside the College of Education. The program aims to attract students from diverse populations and geographic regions, preparing them to attain their personal, professional, and scholarly goals and to compete in a rapidly changing workforce. The program seeks to provide a curriculum and an intellectual climate supportive of an ethos of scholarship grounded in the value of strengthening the relevance of the academy to the communities it serves locally, nationally, and globally.
Who should apply?
Prospective applicants who have the ability and desire to integrate study and research among at least two disciplines/fields to address questions in education broadly defined are encouraged to apply for the interdisciplinary education concentration. Interested individuals will be required to submit a comprehensive concept paper (1000 words) detailing how their chosen disciplines intersect as well as their rationale for pursuing such a line of inquiry. This concept paper is also an opportunity for candidates to clearly articulate how they see interdisciplinary studies in education driving their research and career trajectory. In addition to the rationale outlined in the concept paper, the admission committee looks for a well-articulated alignment between an applicant's past academic background, proposed doctoral level work, stated career goals, and relevant expertise of COE faculty.
For more information, please visit the links in the right sidebar or contact Program Coordinator Dr. Barbara Shircliffe.

Jul 9, 2013 - By Eric Blom, Staff WriterRiverton police think they have solved a 3-year-old mystery of a stolen mule deer mount with the help of a tipster. The Colorado man accused of the theft was bound over to District Court on July 3 to face a felony larceny count.
Travis Dale Higman, 22, was arrested in Weld County, Colorado, after sheriff's deputies found the deer mount in his home May 13, according to an affidavit entered by Riverton Police Department officer Todd Baxter.
Felony larceny carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in jail and a $10,000 fine.
Around Sept. 20, 2010, Bar 10 owner Jason Hawk told the Riverton Police Department that a record buck mule deer head and antlers had been stolen from his business, Baxter said. Hawk told police the trophy's owner, Tim Coulson, had lent it to Hawk, and the mount had hung in Bar 10 for about five weeks.
Hawk noticed the deer head missing sometime around Sept. 23, 2010, and an employee told him it had not been on the wall for a week, he told police. Coulson told the bar owner he had not removed it.
Coulson said the mount was worth about $5,000.
Hawk told police he thought someone had stolen the head during college rodeo weekend, Sept. 18-19, 2010. Baxter said he requested a picture and description of the mount be placed on the Wyoming Outdoor Council website to help locate it.
On May 13, Baxter was told to contact Coulson because the man had new information regarding his trophy.
Baxter later contacted deputy Warren Sitzman of the Weld County Sheriff's Office for assistance. Sitzman and other deputies went to Higman's home May 13 and found a deer mount with a tag matching that of the stolen trophy.
The Weld County Sheriff's Office arrested Higman on a flight June 2 to avoid a prosecution charge, according to the office's website.
This story has been modified from its original version to protect the identity of the tipster.

The European cooperation for Accreditation (EA)
On September 21, 1999 A2LA signed a bilateral mutual recognition agreement with the European cooperation for Accreditation (EA).
The agreement is intended to facilitate the acceptance of test and calibration data with a number of European countries whose national accreditation bodies have signed the EA Agreement. EA promotes the recognition and acceptance in all the signatory countries of certificates and reports issued by organizations accredited by national accreditation bodies who have signed the agreement.
By signing the agreement, the signatory accreditation bodies commit to promoting acceptance of the test reports/calibration reports issued by the laboratories accredited by the signatory accreditation bodies. However, accreditation bodies cannot guarantee acceptance by their stakeholders. As such, one of A2LA's primary functions is to assist A2LA-accredited laboratories in gaining acceptance of their data in the countries of the EA agreement signatories. Likewise, A2LA is committed to helping laboratories accredited by the EA agreement signatories obtain acceptance in the United States.
Through the EA MRA evaluation process, a uniform level of competence of the accredited bodies is assured, and the need for multiple assessments is diminished or eliminated. Ideally, a supplier would only need one certificate or report to satisfy the entire European market and all governments.
There are a number of different areas within the EA agreement, including testing laboratories, calibration laboratories, certification bodies (products, quality systems, personnel, environmental management systems) and inspection bodies. The bilateral agreement signed between A2LA and EA Multi-Lateral Agreement (MLA) signatories is for testing and calibration laboratories as outlined below (as of June 30, 2002):
A2LA staff is able to provide specific details regarding the names and contact information for the accreditation body in a specific country/economy listed above.

Teresa was mystified rather than censorious about Sickles' infidelities. When her own with Barton Key was exposed, she was slow to identify hypocrisy on her husband's part. Facing bleak prospects for herself and Laura, her beloved daughter, she earnestly sought reconciliation with her husband both before and after his acquittal. She got it in a half-hearted sort of way.
She barely touched Sickles' life from that point although at times he did live with her. Most of the wives of significant Union commanders in the Civil War enjoyed good wars; hers was spent preoccupied with a debilitating illness. She went nowhere with Sickles during the war or during his subsequent military governorship in the South. Her illness claimed her short of the 33 years her husband was when he married her.
Despite Keneally's best efforts the two stories do not intersect. Paradoxically, this is unlike the relationship between the Lincolns during the Civil War, which receives attention because Sickles' role in it was so important to his political rehabilitation. He charmed them both. He had a political outlook close to Lincoln and an aggressive spirit Lincoln craved in his generals. He also helped Mary Todd Lincoln out of a number of scrapes as well as entertaining that approval-craving misfit of a woman in the contemporary Washington scene.
Sickles, as a politician, was not without substance. He was a Tammany boss who could deliver, something he demonstrated as a young politician in the complex manoeuvrings to create New York's Central Park. He was an effective post-war military governor in the South, and he made his fortune from grateful shareholders when he destroyed the corrupt grip of railroad barons Jay Gould and James Fisk on the Erie Railroad company.
To get away with the murder of Barton Key he needed good friends. Perhaps the best part of the book is its superb portrayal of his legal team's conduct of his trial. It included the best Irish lawyers of New York and Edwin Stanton, US president James Buchanan's last attorney general and Lincoln's last secretary of war. It helped to have the presence of an enthusiastic courtroom crowd whose outlook on life coincided with the then pro-Southern attitude of the Tammany Democrats.
This was an era in which endless oratory was entertainment and argument was respected no matter how bizarre the premises. Sickles was also helped by Buchanan, whom he had supported, and by Buchanan's refusal to appoint a special counsel for the Key family to assist the hopelessly out-of-his-depth prosecutor. All this combined to produce America's first successful plea of temporary insanity.
What the acquittal could not do was restore Sickles' political career. Despite widespread sympathy for a cuckold, there was enough of a countervailing view to feed hostile elements of the press. Further, a reputation for temporary insanity was not a good political platform. But the Civil War provided his political resurrection, one every bit as dramatic as that of the military career of his ultimate commanding general, Ulysses S. Grant.
This was not simply a product of a skilled mountebank. Sickles' conversion in the lame-duck Congress of 1861 from Southern Democrat to Union Democrat was genuine and brilliantly argued in a House that spurned him. His movement in policy terms brought him into direct alignment with Lincoln, who was seeking such conversions on a massive scale. The president recognised its genuine character and Sickles' political skills.
Within four years of the Barton Key murder, Sickles was a major general, a corps commander (one of seven) in the Union army and the highest ranking political general on the Union side. He had always been a diligent military student, but he was helped by three things: Lincoln's support; considerable personal bravery; and his friendship with a similar libertine and sometime army commander, Joseph Hooker.
The final phase of Sickles' resurrection was the battle of Gettysburg. He emerged from it a wounded hero, his corps carrying the brunt of the fighting on the second day. Sickles was carried from the field minus a leg which he ensured was sent to the army medical museum for display and myth-making purposes.
As Keneally points out, Sickles' role on that day is still the subject of vigorous debate. His commander, Meade, thought he came close to losing the whole battle for the Union. And most military historians would agree that this outcome of his aggressive but incompetent deployments was prevented only by a tardy and petulant performance by the opposing General Longstreet. After the war they struck up a friendship based mostly on their willingness to uphold each other's case for their actions on that day.
Lincoln, however, thought he did well. New York was abuzz with the hero. Congress' Joint Committee on the Conduct of War was hungry for his denunciations of Meade's caution. He was in a position to feed that hunger as his wound made it impossible for him to resume his command in the immediate aftermath of the battle. His resurrection was complete.
Keneally has produced a rollicking good yarn that other reviewers think is on its way to a film script. It is not his best writing on the Civil War - that is in his outstanding novel, Confederates - but this will find a ready audience.
Kim Beazley is a former leader of the federal Labor Party.

Last summer, a drunk Arizona police officer named Robb Gary Evans drove himself to a bar, flashed his badge to avoid paying cover at the door, and then walked up behind a woman, put his hand up her skirt, and ran his fingers over her genitals. A jury convicted him of sexual abuse, a felony with a maximum sentence of 2 and a half years in prison, and Evans was fired from the police force after an internal investigation.

D.C. Welfare Recipients Don't Try to Work? That's Not News to The Washington Post
Here's a good definition of what The Washington Post doesn't find newsworthy. The big headline on the front page of Monday's Washington Examiner was "Most on D.C. welfare don't look for work: 22% of able recipients meet job-search rules."
A quick Nexis search of The Washington Post finds no attempt to report on this sad fact in the last few weeks. Examiner reporter Eric Newcomer explained:
Only about one in five D.C. welfare recipients able to work did the necessary job searching required by law to be eligible for government payments in fiscal year 2012, according to Mayor Vincent Gray's budget proposal.
Those requirements can include job training classes or participating in community service activities.
Just 22 percent of welfare recipients whose cases are managed by private vendors -- a majority of those receiving federal funding in the District who have been determined eligible to work, according to the D.C. Fiscal Policy Institute -- met federal guidelines. That's even lower than the District's 26 percent target...
Deborah Carroll, the District's Economic Security Administrator, said the District has worked to improve its vendor-monitored work participation rate which she said was as low as 3.8 percent in 2010.
So perhaps this "D.C. Fiscal Policy Institute" is a cabal of conservatives? This is some ham-handed Mitt Romney race-baiting-with-welfare-takers scheme?
Nope. Elissa Silverman, presently running as a Democrat for the open at-large seat on the D.C. City Council, is on leave from this institute. She's also a former Washington Post reporter. We know this the Post's own endorsement editorial for liberal Republican Patrick Mara:
Of Mara's opponents, attorney Paul Zukerberg (D) is an authentic new voice with a smart grasp of the issues, a commitment to pragmatism and a powerful message about marijuana laws making criminals out of too many of the District's young people. No matter the outcome of Mr. Zukerberg's candidacy, the conversation he has started about decriminalization must continue, and we hope he stays on the political scene. Democrats Matthew Frumin , an attorney and Ward 3 activist, and Elissa Silverman , a former Post reporter now on leave from the D.C. Fiscal Policy Institute, are both committed to improved ethics and have advanced well-meaning approaches.
