Mission Management
Peace and violence follow us into 2010.
The lives of many are filled with the violence of unemployment, the violence of homelessness, the violence of drugs, the violence of abortion, the violence of illness, and the violence of capital punishment. Our lives are filled with the violence of wanton killings like those in Binghamton, N.Y.; New Haven, Conn.; Fort Hood, Texas; Seattle; Darfur, Iraq; and Afghanistan.
How can we integrate God's peace into a wickedly violent world?
For one man in Norwalk, Conn., an authentic path to peace developed over time. Al Forte describes himself as "just a guy from Red Hook, Brooklyn."
"I'm not a peace activist," said Forte. He says he is more comfortable with the label of "prayer activist."
Seven years ago Forte was in Michigan helping his son with a family business. While living with his son and family, Forte continued his participation with Toastmasters International. He was assigned a term final speech topic, "Influencing others."
Forte simply wanted to get an "A" grade for the speech, and he honed in on the topic of peace and growing closer to God. He made rudimentary prayer cards for distribution to the class during his speech. The cards contained a prayer he wrote, accompanied by a picture of U.S. soldiers in Iraq praying.
Forte got his "A," but he also had dozens of extra prayer cards. What to do?
He began handing them out on street corners in New York, Chicago and Stamford, Conn., in front of the Boston Garden before a playoff game, and in front of the New York Giants, Yankees and Mets stadiums.
Forte has handed out over 15,000 pass-it-on prayer cards.
A regular attendee at daily Mass since his grammar school days at Visitation School in Brooklyn, N.Y., Forte was at Mass one day when, he says, he had a distinct vision. He "witnessed" a Muslim couple looking at their dead children. Forte, who has three children and four grandkids of his own, said he empathized with the couple.
Then after receiving Communion, Forte says he experienced a voice telling him, "Al, you can do something about this." Forte was confused. He asked himself, "What can I do about this?"
The idea came to him that he could at least do a walk like those in support of breast cancer research. Then the idea came to him to walk 950 miles from Norwalk to Chicago.
The day before he began his journey, Forte began to worry about the what-ifs of the trip. After receiving Communion at morning Mass, Forte says, he heard another voice say to him, "Al, this walk is not about you," and a calm came over him.
In July 2008 at age 65, Forte began his journey by traveling approximately 13-15 miles a day and wearing a "Pray for peace" T-shirt.
His childhood friend, Joe Ross, agreed to accompany Forte by car the whole way. Ross would disappear during the day and rendezvous in the evening for dinner.
"Al is a dear friend, and while I am not fully aligned with Al's mission, the most impressive thing was seeing the positive impact Al had on the people along the way," said Ross.
Almost 80 days later, Forte arrived in Chicago to hugs from his family.
Forte puts his pray-for-peace walk in perspective. At a diner en route to Chicago, Forte met an 18-year-old waitress who shared her story with him. She was a mother of two children, one of whom she had placed into an adoptive home two years before. And Forte thought of his father, who served in World War II. "This young waitress and my father, for example, are more courageous than I in doing this walk," said Forte.
He fully expected to let the Pray-for-Peace initiative come to an end. Yet, it dawned on him that his newfound credibility from doing the long walk enabled him to continue his mission.
In May 2009, Forte led a dozen or so on a 12-mile Pray-for-Peace walk in Fairfield, Conn.
Mike Morris joined the Fairfield walk. "Al's message is so simple that people quickly catch on," said Morris. Peace is needed "both globally and locally, in our families and neighborhoods," he said.
In May 2010, a more robust Pray-for-Peace walk is planned for Fairfield, Conn., with many youth from Protestant and Catholic churches and from synagogues among the participants.
"Youth believe in peace and want to make a difference," said Deacon Steve Pond, director of the Youth Ministry Office at St. Aloysius Parish in New Canaan, Conn. "The young people naturally gravitate to Al's walks."
"Al gives people hope and it's wonderful to see," said Ross.

Pass-It-On Prayer
God grant us peace in the world.
God grant us peace in our own hearts.
Help us to see you in others.
Especially, help us to see you in our enemies
And those we dislike.
-- Al Forte
Al Forte's top seven lessons learned
1. Prayer works. Why not do it more often and encourage others to pray?
2. Based on spontaneous comments in response to handing out prayer cards, more people pray than we realize.
3. If good people try to be a little better themselves, the world will be a better place, and there are a lot of good people in the world.
4. Take time to see the beauty of the landscape around us.
5. Get a "kitchen cabinet" together to test your ideas on them.
6. The little things we do for others may be more important than the big things we do for them.
7. Pray and think more about what God's will is for each of us.

According to forbes harris has a 'net value' of 1.5 billion dollars - but what's he got in cash. Marc Cuban is a multi billlion aire but most of it came from a sale of his company to yahoo at the height of the internet boom so he has a lot of cash.
If Harris is all stocks and bonds and holdings - his available cash isn't exactly huge.
No one else has reported this story yet have they?
Send up the TOM Signal
Kate actually took some time out of her Iguodala bashing schedule to post a link to the rumor and say none of her calls have been returned.
Posting a link to the original rumor isn't exactly 'running it down' or 'confirming or denying'.
It's freaking wall street - someone get on the phone to their business editor, call cnbc, jesus
My guess is that he's pretty liquid, my guess is also that he'll put very little cash into the deal if it's made. It will be some kind of intricate transaction with a ton of leverage.
Other investors in the deal include private equity executive David Blitzer and former NBA player agent and Sacramento Kings executive Jason Levien.
Blitzer moved from New York to London in 2002 to create the London-based European office of the Blackstone Group, one of the largest private investment groups in the world.
As an agent, Levien represented players including Kevin Martin, Luol Deng and Udonis Haslem.
Cool - we'll get kevin martin cheap cause he'll force a trade here - Brian loves that idea
SO Harris isn't sole owner
Bad sign
Can you elaborate?
Can you elaborate?
Is this a hard concept?
Sole Owner, Ownership group. More voices, more opinions, more input - more mess.
Not necessarily. There are quite a few investment groups that have done pretty well.
In the nba?
Ownership group doesn't mean a whole lot. Depends on where the power lies. If there's a bottom-line guy, that's fine w/ me. A lot of teams have ownership groups.
I just don't trust a guy who can't put up his own money. It gives me pause.
I care more about why the guy wants to own a team than where the money comes from.
Yeah, I don't care what he says, I care what he does. So his 'speech' will mean nothing unless of course he openly admits he's going to tear it down to resell it :)
Rod Thorn has to be saying "you've gotta be fucking kidding me" right about now
Will the league really approve of a sale like this if there's any indication that the ownership group intends to flip the team only a few years down the road?
For all of Sterns faults, he's definitely not an idiot. I'm sure there will be some questions if this purchase is in the interest of Apollo
Your idealism is nice and all but the approval process usually isn't about that, it's about fiscal stability and ability to make payroll and such.
Haven't really followed anything regarding the sale of the Pistons, sounds disheartening.
I guess it's disheartening.
In the gold rush - when a mine dried up a city - died - because that's the natural evolution of things. These days we don't like things die a natural death - we keep them alive much longer than they should be (people, the american auto industry, etc...). Detroit is a dead city. The American auto industry is not going to come back and it was the back bone of Detroit. Detroit hould be allowed to die a natural death
The league just let Gores buy the Pistons. He's also a PE guy.
And yet they won't let anyone buy the hornets who would move them.
It's not like the league shows common sense or its own best interests anyway all the time.
The Pistons had to be sold, and soon, they couldn't have two failed sales.
I couldn't find it quickly, but was Gores heading an ownership group, or did he buy it himself?
The team said the sale of Palace Sports and Entertainment and the Pistons to Gores and his investment firm, Platinum Equity, was formally completed Wednesday, one day after NBA Commissioner David Stern said the league's Board of Governors had approved Gores' purchase of the franchise.
Opening paragraph from the ESPN report on the sale. Seems like it was at least sold to the firm - does Gores own the firm on his own?
Gores is also worth 50% more than Harris, and oh yeah, he might be pro terrorists Check it Reads more like paranoid delusional writing but it's the 2nd link when you search gores pistons ownership
Yeah, that counts as an ownership group. What's the difference between $1.5B and $2.25B :)
Ummm...$750 million?
Stern has been extremely accommodating to owners of all stripes. I think the Clippers, Kings, are both great examples of ownership fighting for extra draft picks to continually stay under a certain cap # to optimize the league wide sharing money. The Kings are guilty of over leveraging for a number of years and taking advantage of the success of the other teams in the NBA.
If Comcast, Snider, has pushed for selling the team and the NBA can make that deal happen, its a win for the league. The NBA will continue to do whatever it can to make it easier to own an NBA franchise. Stern will not strong arm any deal that would prevent this transaction from happening.
In a statement, Comcast-Spectacor chief operating officer Peter Luukko told The Associated Press there are "discussions about the future of the team" that are confidential, but did not address a possible sale.
Nice spin pete, i read this as a non admission admission that ESPN's source is accurate
I got the full press release. They also said "At some point, we may have something more to say about these discussions, but we will not be making any comments at this point."
Reading between the lines, it's pretty obvious.
The non confirmation confirmation.
So yeah - it's real
So the question i have now is who is abbots source :)
And where is sf1976 :)
They are going to move the team to London and trade for Luol Deng and Ben Gordon :) John Amaechi will be their PR director.
the NBA is going global...
I've not read anything in detail. Would this solely be a sale of the Sixers, or of a bigger chunk of Spectacor?
The only real source of info is the ESPN article - haven't seen anything else pop up yet and it says sixers.
I don't believe that Snider would be willing to sell the flyers - he loves the flyers - and the stadium is much more valuable than the sixers.
It doesn't make sense to me at all really
I think I read it is jusst the Sixers, and they would be a tenant of the WFC.
WHere'd you read that? Most stuff I read is just rehashes of the ESPN article.
What's interesting - and i doubt anyone knows the answer (tom can you ask) is the whole rent / gate relatoinship in a stadium. The sixers and the stadium owners are currently the same entity so a division of gate probably isn't necssary - and thre's no 'rent' paid by the sixers to the owner you'd think I'd be interested to hear how this could increase expenses for a new owner if they have to rent the space in the WFC that was 'all but free' when the landlord owned the tenant?
Running an arena with 2 pro teams is a whole lot more profitable (year to year) than owning an NBA team.
I really hope the Sixers get a free spending owner. It really makes or breaks a franchise.
I get that
But will operating expenses for the sixers go up (or gate receipts down) because they are now owned by 'not comcast' so they don't get a good tv deal or arena deal?
If I were buying the team - i'd immediately request a negotiation of sixer tv rights because you know CSN got a good deal if they paid at all
yeah I don't think they paid. If they did, it was probably recouped in the fees that they stole from other non-Comcast cable companies that had to subscribe their customers to their channel just to watch the games.
I just heard a bunch of details, can't share until later though.
Thanks for that tip.
Later as in about an hour or later today or later in the week. I'm just curious because I'm trying to figure how much longer I'm not going to be productive at work
This afternoon. It'll be worth it.
Will I be happy or sad with this news (cause honestly, that's ll that matters to me)
So does that mean you like the details you heard or they're just interesting details?
eavesdropping on the negotiations over at Chili's?
dude what's the point in having this blog if you can't spill secret info to us nownownow??
Dude, don't tease us just cause the wife is teasing you. Seriously
This is just rank speculation, but I would think that a private equity firm wouldn't buy the Sixers for the point of making a profit, because any potential profit to be realized just isn't that great. The Clippers, for example, one of the league's most profitable teams and a team that plays in a much larger market than we do, makes about 9 million a year. Would a private equity firm come in just for the sake of making that kind of money? I would think it's a situation where Harris is a rich guy who likes basketball and just happens to have made his money in private equity.
Do you have a source for that $9M profit for the Clippers?
Not 9 million link but
But the Clippers are also one of the NBA's most profitable teams because they pay very little rent at the Staples Center, consistently draw over 16,000 fans per game and have a decent local television deal with FSN Prime Ticket, despite their horrific performance on the hardwood.
Yes, this is a quote from Forbes on nbclosangeles.com:
The Los Angeles Clippers lease at the Staples Center sums up owner Donald Sterling's philosophy of running the franchise: maximize profits by keeping fixed costs low. The Clippers pull in less revenue from premium seating and arena advertising than the typical NBA team. But they pay only $1.5 million a season in rent at the arena, which is owned and operated by AEG, owner of the Los Angeles Kings and a minority stake in the Los Angeles Lakers. The Clippers have posted more than $9 million in operating profits the past five seasons despite fielding one of the worst teams in the league.
They would if they planned on moving the team...
Not that I'm saying that is what will happen. Simply, that is a way to make more money in the short term. You get a free arena, sweetheart deal and at least a few years of sell-outs.
Comcast-Spectator discussing possible sale of Sixers:
Brian, I extended lunch till the end of the day so i can hear this interesting news. I hope i dont get fired.
Get back to work, it's going to be late in the afternoon at the earliest.
Screw work. You need to get as much info asap. Don't wait till after work because then you'll be thinking about this all day and it will bring down your performance. You'll also be out of the loop once you get home.
Trust me, I am unemployed and I am more updated on the latest news now more than I ever was.
Just saw this. Flabbergasted.
Looking at the proposed trade in the context of this imminent deal, not good.
Considering the description of the new ownership, I expect an Iguodala trade, heavy marketing and advertising, and some kind of quasi-star signing.
Suffice to say these guys will be looking for a return on their 'investment' as soon as possible.
Ok fine, ill go back to work reluctantly...question is the sixers do sell, What do you think they would do with Thorn?
Brian: if you aren't aware of it already; you're killing us here.
Nightmare scenario: these are some of Stefanski's boys from Wharton. They take over the team and Ed is back wheeling and dealing and talking about "basketball sense"
This makes me very nervous. If I'm a PE guy, I'm looking to maximize my return, the sooner the better. The best way to do that is to shed expensive contracts/overpriced assets (Iggy) and replace them with younger/cheaper assets (draft picks, expiring contracts).
Maybe half of the fanbase thinks that's what should happen anyway. Obviously one would rather see that than Iguodala for Eliis, or Jefferson.
Yep. I'm not crazy about either option, but tearing it down is far preferable to trading Iguodala for a "sexier" player who isn't nearly as good but is signed for just as long.
Was this going on when Collins was hired? Brings new meaning to the word "relevant.
Brian, can't you create a fake identity on this blog and spill the details?
As far as when to buy a team and what its value is, isn't this a good time with the new cba and a possible amnesty clause?
maybe brian is in negotiations to buy the team and thats what he will announce later
Brian doesn't know anything. He says he does to get more web traffic. Basically just an over glorified version of bleacherreport.com
(just joking)
Iguodala for Ellis saves 11 million dollars in the long run. I'm scared that this guy would do that.
You know, this guy's worth 2 billion. I just don't think that he bought us because he sees a business where he can make a piddling $10 million profit. Everyone who's an NBA owner is in some profitable business; it doesn't mean they all go out of their way to cut costs and make the teams they own profitable.
That Forbes has several teams over $20M in earnings, some over $30M. That's between 5-10% of the value in the team in earnings every year, plus the increased value of the team.
Jesus, they have the Bulls at $50M+, the Knicks at $64M+.
Yeah, well, this isn't Chicago or New York.
Houston: $35M
Phoenix: $20M
Toronto: $25M
Detroit: $31.8M
Anyone near a TV, Iguodala will be on Scott Van Pelt's show in 10 minutes. ESPN 2.
Iguodala is at some broadcast camp, and he's breaking down the Finals really well. Even used the term "hockey assists" :).
Deflected the rumor, said he wasn't paying attention to basketball except for the finals. He said he hasn't been paying too much attention to the Finals, trying to rest. The only reason he's watching hoops is because he's at the broadcasting camp.
Iguodala says Turner is "a funny guy," and "loves him to death." Also says "he is going to be a great player." Van Pelt says that he'd take Iguodala for Ellis in heartbeat.
Eskin is not a real source... but he supposedly said the team would sell for 280M.
Pretty distressed considering the Warriors sold for $450M. Did that include an arena, or just the team?
Can we get some sort of ETA for the mysterious brian ifnroamtmion:
It depends on a publication schedule. Unfortunately, I'm also going to the Yanks/Sox game in about 45 minutes. The update is written and ready to be published, just not sure exactly when I can.
The Associated Press, citing a person familiar with the deal who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the team could be sold within the week. The source said Harris' group was not the only bidder but is now the lead bidder, adding the deal has been in the works for several months.
Months? Several bidders? How the hell does something like this stay quiet in this day and age?
I had heard about it 2 weeks ago, but couldn't get enough concrete info to publish it.
All I can say is look over the names of the buying group. One of them to me stands out like a sore thumb.
Are you seeing a different list than we see - the name that sticks out to me is the player agent.
Though I knew a cuck blitzer when i was a kid :)
It's the player agent that's interesting, but not because of his time as a player or agent.
Research him, his last place of employment, the terms of how he left there, and what his future aspirations might be.
Sactown Royalty for the win
Interesting and now we know who would really be running the team :)
will the blog handle need to change to distraught fan ?
Here's the 'cable deal' portion - interesting
The 76ers were valued this year by Forbes at $330 million, 17th in the NBA. Comcast SportsNet spokeswoman Maureen Quilter said the 76ers have a deal with the station through 2029.
"The thing that they're buying is the cable," Forbes media executive editor Mike Ozanian said. "That's the biggest part of the asset. It's been undermonetized, the cable deal.
"They've got to get at least twice of what they've been getting. It's under $13 million a year. They'll have no problem. It's pure profit because there's no cost associated with that."
That's what I'm hearing too
But wouldnt' that cause comcast to ask for more money - cause now they have more money going out of their pocket (for the next 18 years, somehow i think the tv deal would be renegotiated) :)
Nothing coming out makes me feel good about this - NOTHING
OK, the update will publish at 5:30. Enjoy. There's some new info an analysis in there, and also a bit more.
Go Yanks, by the way. If anyone watches the Yanks/Sox tonight, I'm sitting on the fence in right field, blue shirt. Take a picture if you see me.
wear a do-rag, that way theres no way we miss you
Something just occurred to me that might be good. If this happens, new ownership gives a chance for a reset - a rebuild because ownership wants to have 'their stamp' on the franchise. They might be more willing to do what's been needed since 2002.
Hopefully they're smart
I know you have been stating a rebuild is the way to go. What would be your plan? and about how may years to get there. If I was going to rebuild the roster I would shop Jrue right now just because I think he gets you the most back.
I think the point of the rebuild is to build around Jrue.
If you're rebuilding your roster - you don't shop jrue - that's insane - he's the only person you don't shop - you shop everyone - you clear cap and acccumulate pick, you hope you get lucky in the lottery (cause that's how it works usually) or that some other team gets stupid and wants to trad ehtier stars and you can get it done.
Specifics aren't really a good idea it's an approach that to make a championship contender you have to tear down the house and start from scratch because all these add ons are impossible to mesh together.
Like I said - it's almost 10 years now
Iggy for a trade exception [Cleveland?] and a pick would be a good move than and the amnesty clause, if it happens, rids him of Elton. That would drop 15 wins off the record next year if it happened.
I guess I was looking at the term "rebuild" as unless you have a super star or a budding one everyone is available. I think Jrue can be a huge part of a championship on the right team. Does the team have enough other options to get what it would seem the team would need to challenge the top teams. IMO Right now you need two legit efficient scoring options. A couple of 4/5 players who can deffend. Last of all 2 wing deffenders who can make it tough on Lebron and Wade. Just
ANd you're right, jrue is probably made available - but he's the hardest piece to get because he has the most upside - it's a point guard league (supposedly) and he's a point guard who has game already
Very true. The more I think about it, maybe make everyone except Jrue and Andre (or if you think Singleton will be a very good wing deffender Jrue and Singleton) and build off of thoose two. I just think with a combo of Jrue and a very good wing deffender that is not a waste on offense you have a great start. It seems like you could "hide" a good wing scoring option who's D is sub par.

Significance and Use
4.1 Air quality standards for ozone have been promulgated by government authorities to protect the health and welfare of the public. Though ozone itself is a toxic material, it is often complex organic compounds that cause the symptoms of smog such as tearing and burning eyes. However, ozone is the predominant oxidant and is much more easily monitored than organic species. Since ozone concentrations are also correlated with other photochemical oxidant levels, it is the substance that is specified in air quality standards and regulations.
1. Scope
1.1 This test method describes the sampling and continuous analysis of the ozone content of the atmosphere at concentrations of 20 to 2000 μg of ozone/m3 (10 ppb (v) to 1 ppm (v)).
1.2 This test method is limited in application by its sensitivity to interferences as described below. This test method is not suitable for personal sampling because of instrument size and sensitivity to vibration and ambient temperature.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Some specific precautionary statements are presented in Section 8.

I am self-confident, secure, and open minded
The overall impression is that of a series of challenges, each more or less disheartening as they presented me with dilemmas of strategy or ethics.
But when I shift my perspective slightly, what I notice is not the tough times, but the gifts these trials brought with them.
I would not have learned as much as I have about myself and about life without them. I think the biggest lesson that I've learned is how fortunate I am.
I don't feel lucky because my circumstances are any better than another person's. I feel fortunate because, despite the lessons I still face and will face, I am also faced with the inescapable conviction that life is good.
One of the marvellous things about human beings is that we tend to be future-oriented.
We are concerned with our goals, and how well we achieve them or miss them. But this can be taken too far.
It is easy to be so preoccupied with where we are going that we overlook where we are.
A few weeks ago I had a conversation with a man I'd just meet about the definition of wealth.
When we talk about wealth and abundance in general terms, usually we think only about the figures on a bank statement, or material goods.
I don't deny that these are important. Money allows us to be comfortable and to feel secure about our future, and it allows us to exchange services with relative ease.
But there are other forms of wealth too. And in order to appreciate life to the full, we need to notice and appreciate these non-material demonstrations of fortune. One of the definitions of wealth is "the property of a more than adequate quantity or supply".
I feel lucky because I have more than what I need. It is only when I concentrate on what I don't have that I allow myself to start feeling deprived, or distressed because I haven't achieved some of my goals yet.
It's been proven many times that when we define our wealth as a number only, that number is always inadequate Consider what you thought being rich was as a child, or as a teenager.
What happened to that figure? We achieve it fairly easily - and as soon as we do, we increase that number. And every time we reach the new goal, we increase it.
It's easy to fall back into this way of thinking because money is a measurable, tangible benchmark.
Money may be very important, but it is still only one aspect of our lives. Even when we have enough money in the bank or in our wallets, we still need to spend it in order to get what we really need.
Remembering that is one of the ways to remind ourselves of the difference between needs and wants. This is a vital distinction - without it we cannot differentiate between our dreams, or prioritise our goals.
I may want a fancy SUV - but what I really need is either access to reliable public transport, or a reliable vehicle. I want beautiful things, but I need very few.
Humans have many needs: food, water, shelter, sanitation, beauty, companionship, inspiration and challenges.
If you want to feel lucky, spend a little time each day thinking about your needs, and how they are met.
Be grateful for what you do have, even while you acknowledge that you would like more. Because goals are important as a motivation for change; but they should not prevent us from appreciating what we have, right now.
Do you feel lucky?
Good day, slept in this morning, got a call from dad then went back to bed, nothing special.
Woke up late afternoon, just what I needed. Oh yah..
Another disaster in the kitchen, this mornings meal of Onions and Bacon strips was really nice but then felt hungry and did some saussages and a hash brown, oh I better stick with what im good at.
Just had a plate of cornflakes, my poor body must wonder what the matter is.
Feeling anxious about work on Monday but have saved tomorrow to get prepared and get myself looking at least half decent, want to make a good impression, funny how such little things can stess someone out.
Wine is tempting, let me get a glass, Jacob's Creek, Shiraz Cabernet Vintage 2004, oh well its 2 years old so that must mean something right?? I wish I knew more about wine, at one point in my life I really enjoyed it but now I think I would prefer a beer, am I turning in to the typical Australian Male??
Wine tastes nice, wish there was one filled with sugar, then I could be drunk and have high blood sugar at the same time!
The door to the balcony keeps slamming, dam I hate when that happens, its been a lovely fine day and now its a cool evening, even rained a little last night.
I just saw this guy tagging (spray painting) across the street on the wall, Im not going to play Mr Important and call the cops because next thing I know it will be the house, oh yah just what I need.
I just wish people had more respect.
Oh the upstairs cable tv isnt working anymore, god only knows why as the downstairs one is going just fine, typical
Time for a drink and a smoke!
Anyone who says they know the "real you" is being overly sentimental. They may know a side of you, but it is rare for someone to know the entire you. We are more versatile that we realize. We present many different faces depending on our audience. We shift personalities at a moments decision. Sometimes without thought. Being two-faced doesn't even begin to cover it. Most of the time we don't know the whole of it ourselves.
Having a complex identity isn't a bad thing. It does make relationships complicated but more worthwhile. Nobody wants a simpleton. Identity grows and adapts and changes with life events. Sometimes for the better. Sometimes for the worse.
I once had an argument about this with a friend from college. I agreed that she had seen many of my faces. She had seen me listen intently and provide honest feedback on relationships and life in general. She had seen me party it up. She had seen me date other women. She had even seen me with some of my friends from home. I told her that she was one of my closest friends and knew more about me than most. This was true, but she didn't know me as well as she thought. There were faces that she hadn't seen. She got angry with me and said I was wrong. She felt hurt that our friendship was based on a lie or half-truth.
I asked her if she was the same person out drinking with her friends that she was with her family? No. She would obviously use different language, mannerisms. The same would be true if she were at home with close friends versus out at the bar trying to bring a man home. The same if she was in the middle of a job interview. Different people entirely. That doesn't mean that each face isn't real or genuine.
She asked me what she was missing.
I replied with a few examples. Some real. Some theoretical. She had never seen me angry. She had never seen me be a father. She had never seen me in a work environment. She had never seen me in combat. The list could have gone on, but that was enough for her. It probably made me sound as if I were a hit man back home. She got up and left.
She is of strong mind and opinion. I knew her well enough to know that I wouldn't be able to convince her. I felt strongly that she would come to understand what I was saying. She was still young and hadn't seen much of the world outside college and the comforts of home.
We are still very good friends today but there were a few years where she wouldn't talk to me at all. A year or so after she graduated she contacted me and said that she was sorry. She remembered the conversation that had driven us apart. I did too. She never came out and said that I had been right, but she did say that people are complicated and that it takes some tough times to come to that realization.
I couldn't agree more.

10m. Lovely climbing and a little bold up the beckoning half-pipe that runs up the wall.
Don't understand why this got an upgrade to HVS: one hard move with adequate gear, unless you are supposed to ignore the big dinner plates at the top, but that would be very artificial.

Emeka Okafor, the only Wizards player to appear in the first 66 games, will miss his first game of the season after coming down with the flu. Okafor didn't participate in Tuesday's practice at US Airways Center and will sit for the first time since missing the final 39 games of last season with the flu.
Coach Randy Wittman will start veteran center Jason Collins in place of Okafor. Collins has only appeared in one game, playing three minutes in Cleveland, since the Wizards acquired him from Boston in a trade deadline deal involving Jordan Crawford. Wittman wants to use the 7-foot Collins to match up Suns center Jermaine O'Neal.
"I know what Jason can provide," said Wittman, who previously coached Collins in Minnesota. "He has been in the league a long time. A veteran guy, I think we just wanted to go with somebody who can give us a big body that can go against Jermaine early to start the game."
The Wizards defeated the Suns, 127-102, when they met four days ago at Verizon Center. Martell scored a career-high 34 points and made seven three-pointers in the win, but after the game, O'Neal approached John Wall at center court to discuss a late-game dustup with Trevor Booker. The issue was resolved before the teams left the floor.
"Him and Book got into an altercation," Wall explained after the game. "I got in between and just told them to keep playing. Just a misunderstanding by somebody I respect as a veteran that plays in this league. Just apologized and kept it moving."
Wittman said he expects to see some carryover when the teams have the rematch. "It will be fresh on everybody's mind. When you play a team this close together, you win it. You lose it. You are pointing for that game again."
The Wizards (23-43) haven't won in Phoenix since Gilbert Arenas erupted for 54 points in a 144-139 double overtime victory on Dec. 22, 2006. They have lost five straight in Phoenix.

Kevin Jonas was photographed capturing his and Danielle Deleasa's tender moment at Point Mugu, Calif., on Sunday, October 19 with his digital camera.
Kevin Jonas, the eldest of the Jonas Brothers, has been snapped locking lips with girlfriend Danielle Deleasa during an afternoon excursion across the shoreline at Point Mugu, Calif., on Sunday, October 19. In the photos, which have been all over the net, the singer was even was seen taking a photo of him and Danielle while they were hugging and kissing passionately.
Kevin and Danielle reportedly are childhood friends. They are claimed to be growing up together in Wyckoff, New Jersey. It is not known on how long they've been dating.
Just Jared, which has the pictures of Kevin and Danielle making out, claims the pair headed for a grocery shopping together in Brentwood before sharing the tender moment and heading back to her apartment. Neither of them has spoken publicly about their romance though.
Back in late August 2008, Kevin and his brothers, Joe Jonas and Nick Jonas, were snapped leaving Tao in N.Y.C. with Selena Gomez and Taylor Swift after having what was claimed to be a triple dinner date. At that time, it wasn't known that Kevin was dating Danielle.
Notwithstanding their love lives, the Jonas boys have just premiered the music video for their single "Lovebug", taken from their third major studio effort "A Little Bit Longer".

Topic Background:
PRINCE2® (Projects in Controlled Environments, version 2) is a project management methodology that prioritises control, organisation and quality management along with reliability and meeting project objectives. It is derived from a previous method called PROMPT II (Project Resource Organisation Management Planning Techniques), which was the government standard for IT project management. The name later changed to PRINCE which originally stood for "PROMPT II In the CCTA Environment" before changing to the acronym we know it as today.
The PRINCE methodology later became widely used outside the purely IT industry, prompting a general project management methodology to be produced and released as PRINCE2®. It has become one of the most popular projects management methodologies and is now a standard for project management in multiple departments in UK Government.
Since its release, PRINCE2® has become the world's most popular project management qualification with over 1 million exams taken, with the UK taking up over half of the world's total.

The Washington Capitals media staff was recently awarded their 4th straight Dick Dillman award, voted on by the Professional Hockey Writers' Association. For those that don't know much about this accolade it goes to the staff members of the team that has the Best Media Relations in the NHL. It's named after the late Dick Dillman, a man who was a pioneer of his time that worked in PR for former NHL team the Minnesota North Stars. This award was announced during the 2010 NHL Enrty Draft in Los Angeles, having the San Jose Sharks media staff win it for the Western Conference.
The Caps media relations consists of :
|There are far more staffers that share in this award because so much happens off the ice day-to-day, that goes unseen and unnoticed by the fans. Everything from having media notes ready and making sure players are available for pre/post game interviews to posting news on the website for the fans to immediately access. Having a staff that has the passion and drive that these people do is necessary and vital to the overall wellness of a franchise.
The Caps media relations are what you call "fan favorites" with it comes to their accessibility and friendliness towards the fans. You can find them regularly interacting with masses on popular sites like Facebook and Twitter, answering questions, throwing out random facts, and trivia. Their willingness to put themselves out there is important for the growth of the Washington Capitals brand as a whole. Fans like to be able to interact with the individuals directly involved with the players and coaches. They want their voice heard and these are the people that help facilitate that and are doing a great job to boot.
Congrats on your award as I'm sure more are in your future and in the words of Ron Burgundy "Stay Classy"!
Side note: As many fans know Paul Rovnak has taken a position at the University of Minnesota. Good luck with the new job and thanks for all the hard work you did!

Post subject: Convince Me Otherwise
Mock Draft
Round 1
Houston Texans select Blake Bortles, QB, UCF
-Ive been steadfast throughout that draft prospects that the Texans were favoring Clowney in this spot, until today. The speculation started with Bill OBriens hiring. Touted as a quarterback whisperer, he was surely brought in to groom whichever signal caller was set to replace the maligned (and now estranged) Matt Schaub. The hiring of George Godsey as quarterbacks coach should of tipped me off considering he occupied the same position at UCF. The final nail in the coffin came today, when the team officially decided to move on with Matt Schaub. I was one of the few who thought OBrien could rehabilitate Schaub into a respectable passer in this league again. Apparently, Texans GM, Rick Smith, and coach OBrien didnt feel the same way. There are just too many undeniable links that tie Bortles to UCF at this point. While I dont think Bortles is the number one guy in this draft (or even at his position) in terms of talent, I think his best chance of achieving his ceiling is with OBrien and the Texans.
TRADE: Atlanta Falcons select Jadaveon Clowney, DL/LB, South Carolina
-Similarly to how Houston has been tied to Bortles throughout this offseason, the bread crumbs lead to Altanta making a move for Clowney if he becomes available at two. Not only is Thomas Dimitroff not shy about moving up for a top prospect (Julio, anyone?) but he also is familiar with former Falcons scout and current Rams GM, Les Snead. To top it off, Clowney himself admitted to ESPN that Atlanta would trade up for him. Your wish, is my command, Jadaveon. Clowney would be a steal at anywhere except number one (and hed arguably be a steal there). I find his talent exceptional and I dont believe his tape is as damning as some are declaring. He is a game-changing force of defense.
Jacksonville Jaguars select Khalil Mack, DL/LB, Buffalo
-Pretty much the rest of these picks come with a bit less assuredness than the ones at one and twoincluding this one. Mack has been paraded as the sleeper pick to go as high as number one overall. While I dont prescribe to that ideology, his tape is undeniable. Mack is a defensive force who can play just about any linebacking spot and defensive end if needed. That kind of versatility and ability would have a defensive coach, like Gus Bradley, salivating.
Cleveland Browns select Sammy Watkins, R, Clemson
-Of all the top 10 picks (even the trades), this pick is the one Im the least confident about. Ray Farmers comments make it seem like quarterback is not being targeted with this pick. I also this part of the draft puts them in an awkward spot where it wouldnt be equally hard and ill-advised to trade back from. Watkins would make for a lethal receiving corps between himself an Josh Gordon. And although threes no indication that the Browns are interesting in a receiver this early in the draft, the next best non-quarterback prospect is arguably the two premier tackles: Greg Robinson and Jake Matthews. I dont think the team is ready to make that kind of investment on a position of strength. Watkins fits here almost by default.
TRADE: Detroit Lions select Mike Evans, R, Texas A&M
-The Lions are an intriguing team, considering where I thought theyd be mid-season last year, and where they ended up in this draft. Theres no doubting the talent on offense (which got better with the signing of Golden Tate), the team can make a huge splash with a viable number two across from Calvin Johnson. Rumors are about that the team is enamored with Sammy Watkins, and with him potentially off the board, Evans makes sense here. The trade would leap-frog four potential suitors (five if you count Oakland) that would entertain Evans services. I consider Evans as being every bit the prospect Watkins is, and hed be a day-one boon to an already potent offense.
St. Louis Rams (f/ATL) select Greg Robinson, OL, Auburn
-Les Snead, Jeff Fisher, and the Rams have played the draft like a fiddle in the past few years. Compiling picks high in the draft wouldnt mean anything if you cant hit on players (Browns, ahem), and theyve proven they can. Robinson is arguably a top five player in this draft so getting him at six is a borderline steal. Yes, it may not be the biggest need with the return of Saffold, but his best place would be at guard. Also, the team must consider Jake Longs health issues, which compromised their investment in Sam Bradford.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers select Teddy Bridgewater, QB, Louisville
-Finally, a quarterback off the board! Even though Bucs coach Lovie Smith expressed that recent signing, Josh McCown, is his guy, he also said he wouldnt rule out drafting a quarterback with the number seven pick. Bridgewater is clearly the best signal caller in this draft, so getting him at seven would be a major steal here. The pick would be mutually beneficial, too, considering Bridgewater would have a ready-to-win roster to go with his ready-to-win skills.
Minnesota Vikings select Eric Ebron, TE, North Carolina
-Hows this for off the beaten path. The Vikings dont need a tight-end, but Ebron would immediately make the offense more dangerous. I trust that Norv Turner can come up with some creative sets with Ebron and Rudolph no matter who is under center for the team next season. This isnt to say they wont address the quarterback position early in this draft (that comes soon), but I believe Vikings GM, Rick Spielman, may be a little gun-shy about drafting a guy this early who hasnt answered if hes a first round guy on film (see: Christian Ponder).
Buffalo Bills select Jake Matthews, OL, Texas A&M
-I, personally, consider Jake Matthews as this drafts best tackle as he was the best player of an elite contingent that kept Manziel clean. The Bills should consider Matthews despite having a respectable left tackle already in Cordy Glenn. Matthews could step in, day-one, to left, while Glenn can either overtake the average Pears at right, or even address a bigger need at left guard--his natural position. Perfect match.
Oakland Raiders (f/DET) select Aaron Donald, DL, Pittsburgh
-The Raiders have been active participants in free agency. The team underwent wholesale changes at the hands of third year GM, Reggie McKenzie. Although he addressed just about every position of need (read: all), one was left conspicuously absent, the defensive interior line. Aaron Donald shows the kind of aggressiveness and ability give quarterbacks fits around the league. If the Raiders are motivated to win now--and all indications are that they are--they'll want to get a guy who can disrupt Peyton Manning's offense that terrorized the AFC West last year.
Tennessee Titans select Anthony Barr, DL/LB, UCLA
-Barr was once considered as a player who had every bit the defensive prowess of Khalil Mack. Though it's doubtful that his stock truly "dropped," he suffers the misfortune of being in a draft wrought with talent at the top of the first round. The Titans and new defensive coordinator, Ray Horton, will need a pass rushing edge-rusher as the team transitions to an attacking 3-4 defensive alignment. Barr may not posses the versatility that Mack does, he does fit very well as a ear-pinned pass rusher.
TRADE: Dallas Cowboys (f/NYG) select Louis Nix, DL, Notre Dame
-While the media indulges in Jerry Jone's use of a flip-phone at last year's Arizona State versus Notre Dame game, pundits may want to pay more attention to the main reason why he was there--to play GM. Nix is arguably the draft's best defensive tackle, and if he's not, he definitely commands the most attention from guards and centers. Weighing in at a scale crushing 342 lbs. and displaying impressive quickness for that size, Nix is exactly the type of defensive lineman that Cowboys need as they reimagine their front. Jones has shown he will liberally trade up to get the player he wants (see: Claiborne), especially with the threat of Pittsburgh and Chicago potentially being in the market for Nix' services.
St. Louis Rams select Justin Gilbert, DB, Oklahoma State
-Two top 15 picks in the top ten is quite a feat, but getting two players arguably at the top of their respective positions is even more impressive. With the departure of Finnegan (which was probably inconsequential to this pick), the Rams will need a proper number one corner to line up opposite Janoris Jenkins. Gilbert fits the mold of a physical defensive back that Jeff Fisher covets.
Chicago Bears select HaSean Clinton-Dix, DB, Alabama
-It was uncomfortable to see the role reversal the Bears endured last year. While the offense enjoyed very good production and emerging stars, the defense succumbed to injury, age, inexperience, and straight up bad play. While a defensive tackle like Nix would be ideal to clog up a pours interior front (moving Houstin inside could help), Clinton-Dix is the best defender available and would address the second-most need at safety. He and Mundy would be a nice start to reversing the fortune of a forgettable 2013 for the unit.
Pittsburgh Steelers select Darqueze Dennard, DB, Michigan State
-Although Kevin Colbert isn't as bullish as I am regarding this draft based on it's "inexperience," he may find solace in draft senior defensive back, Darqueze Dennard. The experienced starter has proven his merit both on the field and in the pre-draft process as he continues to dominate field drills and testing. Dennard would be a good first step in addressing an aging secondary.
New York Giants (f/DAL) select Taylor Lewan, OL, Michigan
-The Giants have been active in acquiring starter level talent in free-agency. A clear weakness last year has been the offensive line, as Eli Manning showed he isn't the same player when he isn't protected like he should be. Although legal issues form his past have resurfaced in recent indictments, Lewan remains one of the best talents in this draft. I don't think Giant's GM, Jerry Reese, and coach Coughlin, will be scared off by what will be no worse than misdemeanor chargers (though they suggest serious character concerns).
Baltimore Ravens select Zach Martin, OL, Notre Dame
-The Ravens seemed on the brink of a rebuilding project as they were able to resign Monroe and land Steve Smith this offseason. The team still has holes to address and I imagine that GM, Ozzie Newsome, stays true to his best-player-available approach and picks exactly that in Zach Martin (no, I don't have insider information on the Raven's big board). Martin is a versatile offensive lineman that is suited to plug the holes that may emerge along the Raven's offensive line next season, though if all goes as planned, I imagine he'll play right tackle.
New York Jets select Brandin Cooks, R, Oregon State
-If there's one thing that rings true when looking at the talent in this draft, it's that quality talent at receiver is abundant. Cooks has been a guy who's seen a surge in popularity in mock drafts around the web. The Jets have taken noticed as well, as he compares favorably to last year's receiver darling, Tavon Austin. Cooks fits well within Jets offensive coordinator, Marty Mornhinweg's, pass happy offense. Cooks shows absurd quickness that is akin to an NFL player of another position, Darren Sproles.
Miami Dolphins select C.J. Mosley, LB, Alabama
-Despite Miami's tumultuous offseason, they seem to have come out the other side with a string of nice signings. Even with the acquisition of Brandon Albert, the team would ideally want to address the opposite side of the offensive line here, there is no tackle I believe would be realistically considered here. The team's resigning of guard John Jerry and acquisition of Shelley Smith suggest a starting caliber interior lineman, like UCLA's Xavier Su'a-Filo, would fit here, either. The team may want to, instead, face the previous regimes underperforming duo of Philip Wheeler and Dannell Ellerbe. Although Mosley has faced some pre-draft scrutiny regarding his health, he was arguably Alabama's best defensive player the past two seasons there.
Arizona Cardinals select Dee Ford, DL/LB, Auburn
-Bruce Arians and the Cardinals surprised just about everyone with a 10-6 finish. The team owed lots of it's success to veteran talent (Palmer, Fitzgerald, Campbell, Dockett, Abraham, etc.) and will need to build upon their established young players. Ford mouthed off a bit when comparing himself to Jadaveon Clowney during the combine, but there's some substance behind his words. Ford would fit right into the Cardinals scheme and should find a place as a rusher on passing downs early on.
TRADE: Oakland Raiders (f/GB) select Derek Carr, QB, Fresno State
-The Raiders sent a revealing convoy to Derek Carr's pro day yesterday. The GM, head coach, offensive coordinator, and quarterbacks coach were all present for Carr's showcase. By all accounts, he impressed, though he still does have a number of questions that only game experience can answer. The Raiders are prepared to move into the 2013-14 season whether or not Carr proves ready to start day one (even though I believe Schaub may be the starter no matter what). If McKenzie has his way, he'll have Carr sit much like Rodgers did, then unleash him when he's ripened and ready.
Philadelphia Eagles select Timmy Jernigan, DL, Florida State
-Although the Eagles surged into the second half of the season with a vastly improve defense, they were able to play well in spite of some obvious shortcomings. Aside from spotty defensive backfield play (that has been somewhat addressed in the offseason), the team lacked the interior pass rush to put fear into opposing quarterback's eyes. Jernigan is a capable five-technique able to be a disrupter in both the run and pass game.
Kansas City Chiefs select Odell Beckham, R, LSU
-Alex Smith did an admirable job as the unquestioned starter last season for the Chiefs. What's more impressive is the lack of targets he threw to to get his production. Dwayne Bowe is a nice target, but hardly the type of player that alters the dynamic of the passing game on a play-by-play basis. Luck for coach Andy Reid, because he'll likely have an impressive roster of available receiver to choose from come May. Beckham is perhaps of the available lot in this scenario, in my opinion. He displays the type of precision route-running and overall play-making ability (also in the return game) that is needed with the departure of Dexter McCluster.
Cincinnati Bengals select Kyle Fuller, DB, Virginia Tech
-The Bengals are perhaps the toughest team for me to project. They have a well formed roster and can go in a number of different directions. Cornerback is one of their most pressing needs, and Fuller is a good player who has raised eye brows throughout the process, but I'm not convinced that owner Mike Brown and Marvin Lewis wouldn't want to make a more impactful pick. Either way, this pick will continue to confound me until the Bengals turn in their cards on May 8th.
San Diego Chargers select Kony Ealy, DL/LB, Mizzouri
-The Chargers were (ironically) able to overcome a roster that is relatively talent poor, and turned in a playoff season with a win in the dance for good measure. Unlike the team they beat in the playoffs, the Bengals, they can go a number of different ways here not because of a lack of apparent holes, but because they have so many. Perhaps the most important thing for the team to do is aim their sights directly at Peyton Manning. I'm of the mindset that Kony Ealy--predominately a 4-3 end at Missouri--can stand up and make an impact early in his career as a pass rusher. Hopefully the Chargers can get back a healthy Melvin Ingram and a revitalized Dwight Freeney to pair with the newcomer.
Cleveland Browns select Jimmy Garoppolo, QB, Eastern Illinois
-So the Browns do get their guy, and I suspect it's not who many expect. While I think their ideal choice would be Carr at the is spot, I have the Raiders sniping him from their grasps. Garoppolo is a healthy fall back. He displays a quick release and the eye manipulation that exemplify his uncanny maturity as a quarterback from an FBS school. There will likely be two competent veterans in front of him that he can learn form and participate in healthy competition with.
New Orleans Saints select Marcus Smith, DL/LB, Louisville
-Defensive coordinator Rob Ryan achieved a fairly impressive feat least season but drastically improving the historically bad Saints defense of two seasons ago. The most impressive part about his job and that he lacked the personnel that would normally fit his 3-4 shame. Louisville's Smith is an immense talent that would land in an ideal spot for his skills if picked here. Based on his ability as a natural pass rusher and teams playing catchup with Drew Brees and co., he'd be a smart pick for defensive rookie of the year.
Carolina Panthers select Kelvin Benjamin, R, Florida State
-Panthers GM, Dave Gettleman, drew a lot of ire from juvenile fans when he decided to let Steve Smith go. Thinking rationally, and it isn't hard to blame him for being preemptive and keeping his team young and talented. Benjamin showed his dominance in college football by imposing his 6'5" 240 lbs. frame upon collegiate defensive backs. Cam Newton has never had a receiver that uses his body and size quite like Benjamin does, and it could prove to be dangerous combination for years to come.
New England Patriots select Xavier Sua-Filo, OL, UCLA
-New England have been active participants in free agency this year. Although they aggressively approached revamping their defensive backfield, we shouldn't forget how tough it was to watch the offense as they struggled to gain traction early in the season. The best course of action may be for the team to address protecting Brady, and Xavier Su'a-Filo is just about as good as it can get at this point in the draft. It should be noted that Belichik isn't shy (and perhaps also most successful. See: Mankins, Solder) to address offensive line with his first pick.
San Francisco 49ers select Jason Verrett, DB, Ohio State
-Offseason rhetoric about the 49ers has been mostly about 4" and Harbaugh rumors. As the free agency muck clears, the 49ers have a gaping hole and cornerback(s). Chris Cook didn't cut it for Minnesota and he likely won't for San Francisco. Verrett isn't a guy I imagine will be impactful day-one, but the team has pretty much forced themselves into this position.
Denver Broncos select Ryan Shazier, LB, Ohio State
-The Super Bowl runner-ups have been aggressively addressing their defense this offseason in free agency, and I expect that trend to continue in the draft. Namely, the one area in free agency that the Broncos haven't addressed (yet) is linebacker. Shazier is an athletic phenomenon only a pro day like Ohio State's can produce (I kid, UCLA's can too). Truthfully, Shazier is a capable, sideline-to-sideline, linebacker who fits well within what should be an intriguing Bronco defensive mash-up.
Seattle Seahawks select Marqise Lee, R, USC
-A season ago, Lee may have been regarded as a potential top ten pick, much like Watkins in now. In this receiver heavy draft, it may be tough for him to remain a first round pick, let alone top ten. Coach Pete Caroll is familiar with Lee and should be able to capitalize on what should be a massive chip on his shoulder after seeing receiver after receiver get picked ahead of him.

What's the package the Raiders sent to GB?
Only reason I ask is I'm sure the Eagles would also be willing to trade down.
I don't think it's impossible we take a 3-4 end/DL like Jernigan....if he's BPA to them , but I think it's farthest from a need standpoint you can go on our defense.
We need pass rush from our OLBs, a true Nose, another safety, and all the other positions are not settled long term really.
Fletcher Cox and Cedric Thornton are perfectly good starters going forward and they are both very young.

Haven't figured that out yet, but I think McKenzie's Green Bay ties may facilitate things more easily between the Raiders and Packers.

I'd say there's very, very little chance that the Vikings take a TE at all in this draft with Rudolph, Rhett Ellison, and Chase Ford already on the roster.
There's absolutely ZERO chance that they take a TE in the 1st, let alone in the top 10.
The pick in this case, assuming no trade down, would likely either be Carr or Gilbert.

Based on what you've been hearing, do you think the Jaguars covet Teddy with the first pick?

I figured Vikings fans would take issue with this pick. I have a strong sense that Spielman will take an impact offensive player in the first (and not potentially reach for a QB). Also, I'm not totally prescribed to the thought that Ponder won't be given another shot to succeed there (although I do see a quarterback being taken in the first 2 rounds). I do not see a viable trade down situation in this scenario.

Look for the Chiefs to go big in round #1, as is Ried's history. There is plenty of WR depth for day 2 and 3. OG or DE.

Minnesota Vikings select Eric Ebron, TE, North Carolina
At first I was completely against it, but after reading your explanation I find it an interesting selection. I'd still rather them address more pressing needs, but you never know.
Edit: Shakes tiny fist at Tampa.

Question: Why are some records lost when I use the Locate method in the cmkLimitedBufferSize mode?
Answer: This effect appears only if you incorrectly set the "order by" clause in the Select query. For the cmkLimitedBufferSize mode in "order by" you should use fields with the unique values for each record. So fields values in the "order by" clause should not repeat, otherwise you will get bugs not only when you use Locate, but also when you simply scroll on the records.

PETA's banned Super Bowl ad suddenly makes me want broccoli with my veal
Generally, I regard PETA as a bunch of insane hippies who have a knack for making celebs get naked therefore earning my respect as long as they don't stop me from eating chicken wings. Well, this time they've outdone themselves, and apparently, a little too far. Above is a NSFW ad they hoped to run during the Super Bowl, but couldn't based on obvious concerns from NBC.
That said, not seeing women make-out with vegetables during the Super Bowl* is about as Un-American as it gets. You might as well cancel the game and show footage of France. Way to tread on me, NBC. Now, as for PETA and their "Vegetarians have better sex" slogan, clearly they've never made love to a woman after eating at Outback. Which, actually, I recommend nobody ever do. Unless you love oniony coitus then knock yourself out.
Thanks to heather! who's not allowed in the produce section anymore.

|Draft Animal Cloning Risk Assessment

| I am still not convinced that cloned animals are fine to consume. I have concerns with possible genetic damage from the clones to both humans and any other animal that our industries rely on. Also the long term considerations on how cloning will effect the future viability of the genetic stock in industry based animals. We already have a problem keeping species alive (due to global warming and loss of habitat, among other reasons)do we really want to allow corporations to choose the 'best' chicken or cow to be the only one left alive? Although that may not happen in your or my lifetimes, eventually capitalism will produce the 'best' endlessly and all of the rest will die out. Regardless, if this product is allowed, then I STRONGLY recommend it is clearly labled so me and my family can avoid it like the plague. If it is allowed but not labled clearly, then I will seek out another means of providing genetically unmodified meats to my diet, as I have also done with genetically modified vegetables, which has taken me out of the traditional markets for vegetables as a consumer. I do not purchase vegetables form growers who buy the 'designer' seeds, and if this goes through as planned, I will not buy from meat producers (nor any animal product) that use 'designer' livestock in their breeding or production. Our bodies were made in the natural world, everything around us is already synthetic, we should be trying to keep our food, air and water as clean and natural as possible.
