Dr vs. Human Being
Dr Stone may be an MD but she has a lot to learn about being a human being. She was the attending in charge of my resident. When it was time for her to talk to me she literally stormed in and declared that there is nothing wrong with me. She was so antagonistic that I felt the need to be defensive about my condition! I have been sick for 8 months now and am desperate to find a doctor that will actually listen to what I am saying. My resident sent me for some blood work on Thursday. He told me that they will call me with the results. On Monday, I got my results from records and noticed that I was positive for one of the tests (a test that should have triggered an alarm). I called GW and was told to send a fax to Dr. Stone (no emails were provided) which I did on Tuesday. It has been more than a week and I am still waiting to hear from my resident or Dr. Stone. I am officially done with GW Associates and will never go back (the sad thing is that I am a GW faculty).

Veritas Cross Country
The Veritas High School Varsity Boys' and Girls' Cross-Country is in its third year as a program, under the guidance of Coach Ken McChesney. God has blessed us with thirteen boys and girls. Despite our youth as a team, Vanguard runners are demonstrating that they can compete well.
The Veritas Middle School team is in its sixth year. Coaches John Price and April Wassei work with a team of twenty-one boys and girls.
In all competition, runners from both programs seek to model sportsmanship, aiming to bring glory to God as we serve and witness throughout the running community.
In August 2016, Veritas hosted a Distance Running Youth Camp, with 28 runners participating. The feedback from participants was quite positive, and Veritas plans to host more camps in the future.

Worker information and firm disclosure: Analysis on French linked employer-employee data
Information disclosure requirements significantly increased in French listed companies in the early 2000s, converging toward the U.S./U.K. stock market standards. Following the burgeoning literature on relations between corporate governance and labor, we investigate the consequences of this process regarding worker information: does more information for shareholders mean more information for workers? We take advantage of a French (representative) establishment survey that generates linked 'employer–employee' data at two points in time, 1998 and 2004. Our results strongly suggest that worker information has improved in listed companies but not in private ones, as an externality of the financialization process. We find however that this extra information is only partially correlated with greater employee satisfaction, as measured through the perception of fair recognition by supervisors.

Well things are getting better. If you could say that about Brain Tumors. Dad has been in Hospital since Tuesday, not cause he is sick or feeling unwell. Nope, just to hold his bed. Ya' gotta fight the sick off with people that look fit and well. He is in Sir Charles Gardiner Hospital, getting A class meals. Better than home cooked, so i hear. (I gotta get me some of that!! :P)
He is having a Operation to try and remove most of the tumor on Tuesday next (27th June). Going to take about 3-4 hrs. Then he goes into Intensive care for a bit then we start on the Radio/Chemotherapy. The Dr sounds really nice. There is a possiblity that he might become a Hemiplegic. Not looking forward to that, if it happens. Dr it possitive though.
I haven't visited dad in hospital yet. I'm hoping to on Sunday, all things working out nicely with work. I don't know if i can be strong enough too. Its funny how the brain works (when there isn't bad things in there) i feel like it is releasing enough information for me to handle at a time. The whole thing is so large, and so fast. I feel overwhelmed with it all, i still have to do the whole "breathe" thing, Just to get thru the day. We will see what tomorrow holds, and deal with that when it comes.
People think i'm weird. I still smile, about what is going on. Not like i want my dad to die. That isn't meant to happen for many years. God willing it will be years. I just know that everything is being done that is humanly possible. If (unfortunately) it's time, then its time. It will suck more than my heart and head can take, but it will have happened for a reason. Make me a stronger person, and i will grow from it. I already know that we as a family have said things to each other that haven't been said before.
Like my mum- " I just wanted to say how much I appreciate all you kids – it has been so wonderful for both dad and I to see what had been built into you – the lovely caring wonderful people that you have each become. It has been a blessing to us to see how each of you has responded to this crappy situation. Each, in your own unique ways, have given your love and support and care to us and we are so grateful for each one of you. Thank you my lovelies. "
Until next update, i'll try and get away from sad stuff. Just it dominates so much at the moment. You understand.

Definition of jehu
1 capitalized : a king of Israel in the ninth century b.c. who according to the account in II Kings had Jezebel killed in accordance with Elijah's prophecy
2 : a driver of a coach or cab
jehu was our Word of the Day on 01/31/2008. Hear the podcast!
Theme music by Joshua Stamper ©2006 New Jerusalem Music/ASCAP
Did You Know?
Originally a commander of chariots for Ahab, king of Israel, Jehu later led a revolt against the throne and became king himself. In the Bible, it is noted of Jehu that "he drives furiously" (II Kings 9:20). In the 17th century, English speakers began using jehu as a generic term meaning "coachman" or, specifically, "a fast or reckless coachman." Today, we are more likely to use the word in reference to reckless cabdrivers. The phrase drives like Jehu is encountered occasionally, too.

I'm concerned with the popular thought of tying bullying to suicide. I'm not arguing against bullying or that it does push people into wanting to end their lives. Instead I feel that we're starting to trivialize the act of choosing suicide. Just because someone is bullied doesn't mean that person is going to commit suicide. There are other conditions of mental illness that make a person susceptible to suicidal thoughts and in the highly publicized cases where someone has been bullied to the point of suicide I feel that these additional conditions of mental illness are being overlooked.
It's not enough to say "don't bully someone because they will commit suicide." We need to be aware of the conditions of mental illness present in that person as they are extremely important. People get bullied in life. People will bully others in life. Understanding who is much more susceptible to falling under such pressure and choosing suicide and being able to help them before it's too late is a strategy that needs more publicity.

Reading about Amanda also put me into a mental state where I don't know what I'm doing. I replied to the thread about her death and when I saw it I had no memory of writing it. She is near the age of my beloved niece and my mind in its PTSD state confused it all. I deleted the posts when I saw them after my "event" for lack of a better term.
But this brings up a point about suicide. Amanda endured years of bulling. Her parents moved her to different schools and it followed her. The adult man who started all of this continued to torture her.
Suicide is now the number one cause of non-illness death in the United States. I'm not proud to admit it but I don't hide it either. I tried to kill myself sometime ago. We live in what can be a horrific world. Amanda felt like she had no one and the torment would never end. She was too young to know that a flashing picture is nothing. The bullies never understood they were killing her.
I believe this thread is here because there are times when we need to reach out and scream HELP ME! And the blessed souls of this thread come. Let us never forget each other here. Let us commit to one another "I have your back" and you can tell me anything.

Its ok, I understand Im not sure whats going on. A month ago I went on vacation with a bunch of friends on a cruise to the Bahamas .. while they were all understandably excited, I was just ... there. I was able to hide it and keep smiling .. but that pretty much faded when they were all either drunk ( not fun drunk, asshole drunk ) fighting, I even got locked out of my room by the woman ( just a friend ) who went with me so she could have a sex with a guy she just met, then ditched me .. it was all just so disrespectful, and I paid for her cruise and 2 of the other people who went. At one point, I just plugged in my ear phones, found a nice little hide away and laid there for hours ... feeling nothing. I remember laying on a couch literally for several hours feeling nothing. It got worse from there and the friendships ended and it doesnt bother me ... im just starting to realize how numb ive become

yeah, this "vacation" was just horrible. I dont make a lot of money, but I was hapy to help my "friends" because they have less than I do and this was the only way they could have gone. I had no interest in being paid back, I only expected what I rightfully deserved, respect. What I got was the exact opposite. I turned 41 this past August ... I wonder if low testosterone is an issue for me? I definitly havent cared about much of anything lately. There was one thing that did make me smile ... the friend I gave my camera to has been posting pictures on facebook, shes really enjoying it and getting the hang of it. Its an old outdated Olympus E-1, but it was way better than the little pocket camera she was using and she couldnt afford anything "nice", so I believe I made the right decision giving it to her.
Thanks for the advice. A trip to the Dr is definitly needed, not having insurance is an issue, not nearly as much as just not wanting to go tho lol

I am sick and tired of being sick and tired! I just want to know what my purpose in life is! I feel like I am in auto pilot! I feel that I have no purpose in life! The only comfort I have is eating!

I know how you feel Russell. I've been in and out of the hospital all year. What would you like for your life's purpose to be? I know it isn't that easy but maybe its a place to start thinking. Maybe we can help you work out some answers. This is a good safe place to ponder and seek advice and input. I have to find a new purpose for my life since I am physically unable to do what I love. Maybe we can help each other. Feel free to pm me if you want to talk.

Hey Tim,
Do you have any luck sleeping during the day? If you're exhausted and you can't sleep at night getting some day-time shut-eye might help to redress the lack of sleep and boost energy levels. Just kind of thinking 'screw it, I'm falling asleep on the couch today' can be enough to trigger a nana nap if you're lucky.
I'm pretty much the worst sleeper in the world so I probably can't give any definitive advice. Occasionally I do a complete re-set by staying awake for as long as possible and just crashing, setting my alarm to wake me in the morning at a reasonable hour to get my bio-rythyms back on track for a while.
You might need meds to get you to sleep but I've had no luck getting a quack to prescribe any.
Other things I have experimented with include the clock radio on really quiet, tuned to something dull like NPR so there's some comfortable, non-offensive background noise as I go to sleep. I also sleep with an eye mask to block out as much light as possible. And the usual like no coffee after noon all help. Whilst alcohol is usually a no-no dammit all if a glass of Baileys or some such doesn't help.
Hope you can get some sleep - I know how tough it is without it.

Without knowing if something is triggering your insomnia, no.
Things to try:
As Bret said, napping during the day (note: I've discovered if I nap after 2 pm, it takes me a lot longer to get to sleep at night),
Eating earlier (or later),
Blocking all light,
Turning on something that will make some noise: a fan (for white noise), radio, mp3 player, ... (although you may find instrumentals work better than songs).
Best of luck.

Thanks for the advice guys. Brett, I do find it easier to sleep during the day and usually get a couple of hours throughout the day.
The reason I have trouble sleeping is complex. I have PTSD and it causes horrible nightmares that I struggle to get out of. I think my mind knows if I go to sleep I'll be tormented.

It's good to see this thread is still going. I haven't been on MM in almost two years due to my Mother's death and then nearly my own. I now suffer from the same Rheumatoid Arthritis my Mother died from. I am having a hell of a time coping with her death and dealing with the same disease. Deep depression seems to be a part of this disease that I fight daily.
Just wanted to say hello to everyone.

After intensive diplomatic efforts by the United States, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel and the Palestinian leader Yasir Arafat agreed today to go to Washington this week to seek ways out of a confrontation that has put the entire Israeli-Palestinian peace in jeopardy.
President Clinton announced in Washington that he would act as host to the meetings, scheduled to begin on Tuesday with American officials conferring separately with Israelis and Palestinians. He also said King Hussein of Jordan would attend.
But a key figure in the Middle East dispute, President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt, delayed announcing whether he would also be on hand. There were reports that he was insisting that Israel close the tunnel near Islamic and Jewish holy sites; its opening touched off the rioting last week.
Mr. Clinton announced the meeting one year after he proudly presided over a ceremonial signing of the second Israeli-Palestinian agreement at the White House by Yitzhak Rabin, the late Israeli Prime Minister, and by Mr. Arafat, with Mr. Mubarak and King Hussein in attendance.
This time, however, Mr. Clinton seemed edgy as he read the terse announcement. Coming six weeks before the Presidential election, the Middle East crisis was one Mr. Clinton would have gladly forgone, and the possibility of more violence undoubtedly contributed to his unease.Continue reading the main story
The President said he believed that both Mr. Netanyahu and Mr. Arafat were ''concerned about the way events spun out of control, about the loss of life, the injury, the eruption of old tensions and bitterness.''
''I believe they want to try to get beyond that,'' he added.
But despite a second day of relative calm in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, it remained far from certain whether the meeting would relieve the tensions that exploded on Wednesday into three days of fire fights between Israeli soldiers and Palestinian militiamen and civilians. The fighting left 55 Palestinians and 14 Israelis dead.
Though the violence has receded, tensions remain high. The archeological tunnel in Jerusalem's Old City that set off the rioting was reopened today after being closed Friday and Saturday for Sabbath observances, leading to some stone-throwing incidents. Tanks stood on guard throughout the West Bank and outside Gaza. Inside Israel, vigilance was unusually high as security officials warned of terror attacks by Islamic militants. And on the political front, positions on both sides seemed only to harden.
Mr. Netanyahu and his aides issued increasingly harsh statements blaming Mr. Arafat and the Palestinian Authority for the disorders, and rejecting any gesture that might appear to be a concession to violence.
David Bar-Illan, a senior adviser to Mr. Netanyahu, said in an interview:
''There is no way that Israel can make substantive concessions because that would only prove that violence and war pay, and I think especially in the Middle East, and throughout the world, this is the worst possible thing to do. We cannot allow violence to bear fruit, and in this case we have absolutely no doubt the violence was perpetrated by the Palestinian Authority.''
Above all, Mr. Netanyahu was unequivocal in several interviews in saying he had no intention of closing the tunnel, at a site sacred to Jews and Muslims. Though he insisted in some interviews that the entrance was simply a tourist convenience, he also indicated in an interview with CNN the zeal that lay behind the issue.
Rejecting accusations that the tunnel opening was an affront to Muslims, Mr. Netanyahu said:
''If one thing always preceded violent attacks on the Jewish people, it was calumny, slander, the presentation of the Jews as the well-poisoners of the world and the enemies of mankind. Now we're being presented on trumped-up charges as enemies of Islam. This is a terrible fabrication.''
On the Palestinian side, Mr. Arafat reportedly considered refusing to attend the Washington meeting unless Mr. Mubarak, his chief patron in the Arab world, also came. The Palestinian leader was said to have demanded that any meeting with Mr. Netanyahu produce concrete progress, arguing that the conservative Israeli Government has used all earlier contacts only to prevaricate on moving ahead with peace arrangements.
In an interview with the mass-circulation Hebrew daily Yediot Ahronot, Mr. Arafat angrily defended himself against Mr. Netanyahu's charge that Israel gave the Palestinians guns, only to have them turned on Israelis.
''Not a single word is correct in that question,'' Mr. Arafat said. In the first place, he said, the arms of the Palestinian police were their own, which they brought when they returned from exile. Secondly, he said, the police never opened fire in response to orders. ''When policemen fired,'' he said, ''it was only when they felt themselves to be under danger, and saw a need to defend themselves.''
The Israeli reporter then noted that the Israeli Government was accusing Mr. Arafat of seeking an opportunity to create disorders, and that the tunnel provided it.
''If you knew that we were waiting for an opportunity, why did you supply one?'' Mr. Arafat responded, going on to suggest that Mr. Natanyahu was either being provocative or dangerously ignorant of the possible repercussions. If ''he did not know, then this proves that he doesn't understand the rules of the game in the field, or that his advisers are misleading him,'' Mr. Arafat said. ''And if he did know, then this means that he played with fire.''
Israeli reports indicated that American mediators had largely abandoned hope of winning an Israeli agreement to reclose the tunnel. Secretary of State Warren Christopher was said to be focusing instead on Hebron, the West Bank city from which Israel was to have withdrawn most of its troops six months ago and which has gained considerable symbolic weight.
But Mr. Netanyahu gave notice that after the latest outbreak of violence, he would tighten his security conditions for any Israeli redeployment in Hebron.
''Now imagine the problem we have,'' he said in the CNN interview, ''if we simply redeploy without modifications and you have several hundred Israelis, Jews, in the Jewish quarter in Hebron, surrounded by the hills of Hebron, the Arab hills, in which you have hundreds of police with the same rifles that were pointed at Israelis in contravention of Oslo,'' a reference to the Israeli-Palestinian agreements. ''I think anyone in his right mind now understands what I've been saying all along.''Continue reading the main story

Thanks for checking out this week's Simple Inspiration Interview. Today I have the pleasure of interviewing not one but two individuals this week. This week we have an opportunity to hear from the Debt Free Guys. I am sure many of you can relate to John and David's financial struggles. They offer some great advice on how they were able to overcome their financial struggles and begin to live a debt free life.
Let's hear how John and David have simplified their finances and began to live a debt free life:
What event lead you to realize you needed to eliminate debt and improve your financial life?
About ten years ago we found ourselves as two thirty-something professionals living in a friend's basement apartment and had two beat up cars. Our peers were passing us by and we wondered why. It didn't take long to realize it was because we had $51,000 worth of credit card debt. We were borrowing from our future and had nothing to show for it.
What area of your finances needed the most improvement outside of eliminating your debt?
We had no budget. We spent unconsciously. If we wanted it, we got it. It didn't matter if we spent cash or credit. Eventually everything was on credit and we were living paycheck to paycheck.
What was your biggest challenge or roadblock to improve your financial lives?
Our biggest challenge was realizing that we didn't have to spend a lot of money to enjoy life. Once we realized that we could have a good quality of life within and even below our means, things changed for us financially.
How did you overcome this challenge or roadblock?
This took a lot of self-reflection and open dialogue between the two of us. We ultimately realized that we both had two primary goals in life. The first is to travel extensively. The second is to save for retirement. Once we realized those were the areas we want to spend our money, it was easier to get our spending in order.
What steps did you take to change your financial lives?
Initially, we eliminated all non-essential spending and travel. We did this until we paid off all our credit cards. This helped us embrace budgeting. When we were finally able to loosen the purse strings, we did so on a budget and have done so ever since.
How long did it take you to get your finances in order?
We quickly came up with a budget and payment plan to pay off our debt once we realized what we most wanted in life. It took us about two and a half years to pay off our credit card debt. It took us another year or so to feel more comfortable financially. It was at this point that we moved out of the basement apartment into our own condo.
How did you feel once you had your finances in order and eliminated your debt?
Amazing! We occasionally think about how we felt when we were mired in debt and how good we feel now. We have less stress. We're happier. We can do the things we want. We own what we have. It's just an all-around good feeling. We want others to have the same feeling.
What financial habits have you developed so you continue to improve your finances?
We're what we call "money conscious". We know how much we truly make. We know where every dollar will go before we receive it. We save aggressively for retirement. We have accounts for home improvements. We have an account we're funding because we'll need a new car in two years. We have these accounts because we want to spend cash and not credit on the things we want and need.
What advice or tips would you give to others who want to simplify their finances?
Our advice is to just simplify your financial life. All the spending, all the shopping and all the stuff makes our lives more complicated than they need to be. Figure out what it is you truly want financially and work for those financial goals. Just because something is important to your neighbor, sibling or coworker doesn't mean it's important for you.
Are there any areas of your finances that you still need to improve on?
Yes. We love to dine out on good food and wine. We don't go into debt because of it, but we'd do better if we cooked at home more often and drank cheaper wine.
What book, blog, or podcast would you suggest to someone who is looking to eliminate debt or improve their finances?
We documented our experience and what we learned in our book 4: The Four Principles of a Debt Free Life. In 4, we break down what it takes to quickly pay off credit card and other debt and have a good time.
Do you have an emergency fund established, if so how did you determine the amount need to fund it?
We do have an emergency savings account. We have three month's worth of living expenses in a credit union account that has no check writing or debit cards privileges. We have not had to use it, but it's a great feeling know that it's there.
What percentage of your income are you saving?
Among our retirement, saving for a new car and other financial goals, we're currently saving about 25 percent of our income. We're currently making a lot of changes to Debt Free Guys, LLC, too, and that's taking some of our income.
What's your best savings tip?
It's almost too simple, but we still use the envelope method. We have a budget for groceries, gas, social spending, etc. Every other payday, we withdraw the money we need for each category and that's all the money we get to spend in each category until another two paydays.
If money was not a concern, what would you do for fun?
If money wasn't a concern, we would go on a world tour. We'd travel to everywhere in the world we want to go and see everything we want to see.
Any other thoughts you would like to share with others who are looking to simplify?
We think living simply is really a mental shift. It's easy for us to get caught up in the hectic, fast paced, always on our phone lives and have the insatiable need for more, more, more. Once we make a shift in thinking, everything else falls into place.
Thanks John and David for sharing your story with my readers. As I mentioned earlier I am sure many can relate to your story and are looking for ways to improve their finances. You provide some great advice to help them turn their financial lives around.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
My boyfriend lives in U.S.A so I've been frequently visiting
In 2011 I visited America from the 25th May untill 24th August....so the trip was 91 days long.
I was on a trasnfer flight home that took me to Washington (IAD) back to London (Heathrow)
Ever since that trip I have been taken into a secondary interrigation room when I have reached LAX and on my last visit in November 2012 the border patrol officer told me not to return without a visa or I would probubly be rejected and sent home...
on the way out I flew with BMI airlines and on the way home I flew with UNITED airlines
I know the problem stems from the trip i mentioned above and I was wondering what I had done wrong and if there was a way to resolve the issue?
Given the border patrol comments regarding obtaining a visa, it appears you entered as part of he Visa Waiver Program. Tourists traveling on passports from certain countries do not need to obtain visas, BUT are limited to a 90 day stay that cannot be extended. If you entered without a visa and overstayed, that could be the cause of your problem.

thank you for the reply, yes I was on the visa waiver program,right... so then I stayed 1 day over my legal allowed time, is there any way I could fix this problem, as it was a genuine mistake?
There is nothing you can do to "fix" what has happened already. If you want to travel in the future and do not want to risk being refused entry, apply for the visa as suggested by border patrol. Alternatively, if you and your boyfriend are considering a long term future together in the US, you may consider having him petition for you as his fiancee or spouse.
Go to the US consulate to get your visa renewed and make sure of the dates of travel in the future

Sounds like they're unhappy that you violated the visa waiver program by one day. Perhaps it's time to apply for a B visitor visa to avoid future complications.

I've been with my boyfriend for almost a year now... we met online and he flew out to see me back in October. We have only seen each other once since actually meeting
Background on me he's from the states and I'm originally from the middle east. When he came down to see me he met my mother but not my father... The reason being is due to how our culture thinks about dating boyfriends etc... as well as my relationship with my father. Him and I don't really agree on things so it makes it harder to tell him things
Anyways he had planned for him to come down here again in August and today he asked me when I'm telling my father... I told him I will soon enough he then went on to say that he won't be coming until I tell my father about him
I understand that he really wants to meet him and it would make stuff easier on us but hearing him say that makes it a bit over whelming on me and I feel slightly pressured and that I don't know when I would see him next...
Most Helpful Guy
Okay, im evil... i'd just issue a warning, and then sit back and watch the chaos happen... i mean, between the culture about dating, the fact that you met online, and he is leaving the States... I'd sit back and watch this.
Thats like my girl wanting to meet my mom, i'd do the same thing, she might think its all fine and dandy... until something blows up. i'd just take cover before.00|00|0
Most Helpful Girl
Yeah, long distance relationships suck, Im glad I got out of my one, anyway, my boyfriend used to do the same with me (the ldr one), he was always on about why he couldn't meet my family and stuff, and if I was embarrased that he was my boyfriend, he wouldn't understand that it was a very complicated position for me, until one day he gave me an ultimatum and said he would break up with me if I didn't in some period of time, I just couldn't so when the time came I just talked to him about it, I think other people talk to him about it too, some friends of his, and he finally understood how overwhelming all of that was for me, and he apologized and said he'd support me no matter what and that I should take my time, though I know deep down he never got past it and that he always thought I was trying to hid him like if I was embarrased, which wasn't the case, we ended breaking up because of too many things, you can just try talking to him about it but if he doesn't realize by himself, I don't think anything would make him realize, good luck though!00|00|0

Want to feel refreshed
Most Helpful Guy
Maybe this will help
Most Helpful Girl
I have tons of tricks and face masks up my sleeve bc i'm always concerned about my skincare.
Ok try this:
Turmeric powder, chickpea flower (this may be hard to get, so you can use brown rice flower too), yogurt, honey.
Its great for acne, skin brightening, and softens your skin!
Clay masks (Aztec clay mask is a good brand) and aspirin with a little water (leave this one over night) get rid of acne in a jiffy, but they may dry your skin, so use an oil free moisturizer if you ever decide to do this.
To give your skin leaving refreshed and a nice glow, slice up cucumbers and just lay them on your face (you might wanna lay down and get someone to do this for you though) also, get an ice cube and just start gently rubbing the ice cube on your face until its almost melted, yes its cold, but it constricts your blood vessels and your skin will look bright and amazing.
I have a ton of other beauty tips whether its skincare or for your hair or your teeth, etc, so feel free to message me :)00|00|0

Broaddus seemed to indicate that they like Logan in the third but might take him in the second just to keep from losing out on him and that both Kiffen and Rod really like the player.
So Who knows.
These are mine although a couple there I don't know enough to have an opinion. Personally I would be considering Watson, Lacy, Thomas, Cyprien,
Hunter and Watson. Maybe Tank and Short. I don't know how these rate on their board and who they have targeted later on which could influence the pick a little.
He probably goes in the 2nd round, maybe even early, but I wouldn't take him.
Bennie Logan at 47 would be a definite reach, IMO.
Agree. His "highlights" weren't all that impressive. 4th rounder at best.
Arthur Brown! Please!
I also like Cyprien, Lacy, Ball, Sio Moore, and Khaseem Green.
This year is a fantastic year to get some perfect Tampa-2 LB's in Brown, Green, and Moore.
Brown is about my biggest pet cat in this draft. If they manage to get him in the second, I'll be absolutely thrilled. He reminds me so much of a young London Fletcher. He'll be a stud for a decade and would complete a great LB corp with Carter and Lee.
47. OT Watson or DE Carradine or DT Hankins
As for 74 and 80, I prefer making my list of desired players after I know what we have in the cupboard from 31 and 47 and see what's left as the final 5-6 picks in front of us are made.
I say stay with linemen until satisfied. I'm not as enamored with the prospects or worried about the roster when it comes to RB and Safety as most are.
If I wanted a LB in round 2, I'd consider targeting Minter to step in as the starting MLB and using Lee with Carter on the outside where they'd both thrive.
Agree with you there. Brown at 47 would be amazing value. Lots of folks had him going in 1

I posted about this before, but now those crazy kids at the Hatchery Festival have their own snazzy website:
I tried to bring their logo over here, but Ben Hill's impregnable CSS design forbids it. Please do check this out. The combined talent on this venture happens to include most of my favorite DC writers, directors, actors, and designers. So, if nothing else, click over the Hatchery 2006 to see who I'm talking about. Their first offering, Sarah Sander's Snow Falling Fast, opens this coming Wednesday.
I repeat: this three-play rep production is perfect for anyone who finds Fringe too mainstream. Good stuff, cheap tickets, couched in that quiet DC neighborhood we call Adams Morgan.

Ibn Warraq is the author of a number of books, including Why I Am Not A Muslim, considered among the most important critical looks at the negative aspects of Islam today. He is an outspoken critic of Islam who has written extensively on what he views as the oppressive nature of Islam and religion in general. Since the publication of Why I Am Not A Muslim, Ibn Warraq has appeared often in the media, including C-SPAN, National Public Radio, Canadian radio, the Washington Post, and the New York Times, in addition to consulting with Washington, D.C. think tanks, speech-writers for President Bush, international NGOs and the Center for Inquiry. In this interview, he discusses his problems with Islam, and why he argues Islam is incompatible with the democratic values of the West. Also in this episode, Tom Flynn presents Did You Know? breezing facts and figures about Islam, Mormonism, secular humanism, and paranormal belief in America and Benjamin Radford, in his regular segment, Media Mythmakers, casts a critical eye on blogosphere journalism. Also, in the first of a three part series entitled Can You Be Good Without God? Paul Kurtz explores the real origin of morality.

Avoid! Terrible service
"Horrible service. First they overcharged shipping. And after 5 days they simply cancelled the order."
"Do not ever order anything from a matter of fax!"
I was in need of black in for my HP printer, I found a good price with A Matter Of Fax, on google shop, I placed my order. When I received the ink, I was shocked to see it wasn't the one they advertised. I needed to print bad, so I kept the ink, that's not all...
First, the image they advertise is original ink from HP. The stuff they sent was refilled cartridges (not even from HP).
Second, all of the cartridges failed, not one worked!!!
A scam, a farce, a pathetic way to take money from people.
Do not buy from these people, and if you do, its a gamble.
-Francisco A.
"i ordered a PREMIUM TONER CARTRIDGE for a Brother printer this cartridge is not compatible and does not work the cheap price I paid is money down the drain here is there return policy:
Toner/Ink Cartridges and Consumables:
Ink Cartridges, toners, and other consumables (i.e. Paper, Pens, Ink or Toner cartridges) are non-refundable and non-returnable items. All sales are final. Purchaser is advised to contact the manufacturer for any assistance needed. Does not apply to select Premiere A compatible cartridges.
When will I learn to buy locally and quit buying JUNK!
"BEWARE - These guys are really bad about bait and switch.. See an unimaginably good deal on their site, walk away. They will wait a day or two, then call and tell you they can't fulfill the order and try to sell you something else. Real bad business"
"I'm impressed with a matter of fax. I bought toner cartridges from them. Their prices are usually the lowest, and shipping is really quick.
"Our company purchased a Ricoh printer from A Matter of Fax along with a 3-year warranty.
Our printer is used by the majority of our office personnel here and when it is down it greatly affects our business. We have had it break down twice on us, the first time it took them over 2 weeks to fix the issue. Turns out it ended up being a minor issue and they still gave us a run around for 2 weeks.
This most recent time has been a week and a half and we do not have any timeline as to when they will fix it. They attempted to talk us into pro rating us our warranty instead of fixing the issue. It seems that they are doing whatever possible to pass the issue back onto us.
We have not been happy at all with the service and customer care we have received from them since the purchase of the printer. We would NOT recommend A Matter of Fax to anybody looking to purchase through them."
"I purchased some ink cartridges from A Matter of Fax and was delighted with the service and quality of the cartridges. I received my order in a few days. I will purchase from them again and refer my friends to them."
"I order a printer in February on a prepaid credit card, they kept emailing me and telling me their was an order problem, finally I called them and they said they couldn't get the printer in question, and told me for additional $ they could upgrade to the next level of printer, I agreed and then they kept emailing me and telling me my card refused the charge. They were trying to charge two printers instead of one. After that mess They were having problems getting the printer in and I finally called and kept calling trying to get through to customer service to cancel the order. I left numerous messages to cancel, now April 2nd they charged on my card the printer without so much as an email. I called my credit card company and filed a fraud charge and now am waiting for a response to the charge. What a ripp off!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am telling everyone, you think you are going to save and you will only get headaches and lose lots of money in the end. DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS COMPANY, RIPP OFF!!!!!!! I did not even receive an email with the order no or anything!!! I only knew they charged the new printer because of my prepaid credit card refusing other orders because this company put it in the red!!!! FRAUD!!!!!!!!!"
"Delivered as promised, product is what was ordered, great price and service,
Thank you"
"Exceptional and personal customer service. Expeditious processing of order. Great prices. "
"Bought a toner cartrige for my copier. It worked for about a week and less than 70 copies and then quit. (product advertised yield of 4k) The refund/exchange policy will only cover if I pay to return the item and if I have the original box (which of course I didn't have because it worked fine in the beginning so it was thrown away) I was told that I could purchase another cartridge and then send this defective one back. Question? Why would I buy anything else after getting junk in the first order? UPDATE>>>> shortly after posting this review, I was contacted by "A Matter Of Fax" and was told that IF I removed this negative review, they would allow me to send the toner cartrige back to them without the original packaging. (but i must REMOVE the negative comments first) Some customer service huh?"
"I have been using a matter of fax for all of my electronics purchases for many years now. I have never been let down. Thanks for being there, a matter of fax!"
"I ORDERED A LIGHT BULB FOR MY TV. It was ordered on dec 30. I understand the holiday happened but here it is the 8th and after several ph calls and emails I finally get someone to talk to me and they appolized because the package fell between "something" and did not get shipped. I am told they will ship it today. But I will not hold my breath nor will I ever order anything from them again. I paid for expedited service that didn't happen. And yet they keep my money. Customer service passes it off to someone else. DONT ORDER ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY. Not if you actually want it to arrive. "
"Needed a printer fast - found it here quickly, ordered it and they we quick on the spot. Called and got all the help needed as well as the proper cable and supplies. This is a great place."

The Story of Burleigh WareHow a legendary British pottery company became one of the last great standard-bearers in tableware
Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap. With pinpoint accuracy, Chris Glendinning strikes his pointed metal graver with a small hammer, slowly and delicately marking lines and dots onto a copper roller. He's been working on the same design for weeks, and will continue for weeks, possibly months, more. It's a job that requires immense skill and patience, but Glendinning, 71, knows his stuff—he has been doing it since he was 15. Right now he's the only engraver working in the pottery industry left in the world.
Burleigh is like that. Everywhere you turn you find the last, the only, the unique. This English pottery company is a lesson in living history. In an industry that has suffered greatly from mass production, falling demand, increasing costs, and downward-spiraling prices, Burleigh has stuck to its guns and stayed on in the heart of the area known as the Potteries, still making the highest-quality printed earthenware by hand, using time-honored processes with machinery from the 1940s and '50s (plus some that dates back to 1889), all in the same factory that was purpose-built for the company in the late 19th century. Much of the staff have been there for decades, and in some cases their families worked there, too, passing their craftsmanship down through generations. "There are skills at Burleigh that just don't exist anywhere else," says the company's creative director, Steven Moore. "When I first arrived here last year, it felt like going back to a time when there was a proper craft culture that was valued, unlike in so many other places, where it has completely gone."This appreciation of quality, tradition, and painstaking craftsmanship is what makes Burleigh and Ralph Lauren such a good fit, and the companies' collaboration over the years has included some beautiful ranges, such as Arden, a late-19th-century design of twining hawthorn branches; Calico, an allover floral designed in the 1960s; and Regal Peacock, a favorite of Queen Mary's, which was launched in 1913. Each and every Burleigh piece has a subtle depth and individuality that just can't be replicated by modern machine processes. Yet the company's survival has not been without a struggle.
The story began in 1851 when Messrs. Hulme and Booth set up the Central Pottery in Burslem, one of the seven towns that together formed the most important, and prolific, centers of ceramic manufacturing in the world. The British took their tableware seriously (they still do) and had been making pottery on a large scale in the area for at least 400 years. Down the road could be found the factories of Wedgwood, Spode, and other great names, which had been established almost a century earlier; the skyline was dominated by the silhouettes of more than 2,000 bottle kilns (so called because of their shape; almost all now demolished), and the air was often black with the smoke of industry. In 1862, William Leigh and Frederick Rathbone Burgess took over the Central Pottery, renaming it Burgess & Leigh and introducing more intricate patterns to its expanding range of tableware. The firm flourished and, in 1889, moved to its current home, a purpose-built, steam-powered works called Middleport Pottery, perched on the eastern bank of the Trent and Mersey Canal.Today the redbrick factory is a wonderfully picturesque maze, with labyrinthine passageways; steep, worn stairs; doors leading who knows where; attics stacked high with Victorian pottery molds (it's the largest collection in Europe); and individual "shops" that are home to each of the different production processes—but at the time it was the height of Victorian modernity and efficiency.
"If you took a piece of Burleigh from 1890 and compared it to one from today, they would be almost identical," states Moore. "There's an essence of DNA that's been passed down because we've been here so long, and a spirit of place that you just don't get with other brands. The products we make are still the same and the processes are the same." Emphasizing his words, in the background can be heard the gentle thud of the 19th-century pump that works day and night to pipe liquid clay around the factory.Since its earliest days, Burleigh has concentrated on a type of printing called underglaze transfer, a labor-intensive method developed more than 200 years ago. One by one, other companies have moved to cheaper and easier lithography, and now Burleigh's the last one standing in this highly skilled game, which involves carefully cutting out the designs from printed tissue paper and rubbing them down (more vigorously than you might expect) onto each piece of pottery, making folds around curves and joining where necessary—especially tricky with, for example, a teapot covered in a dense pattern like Calico. List some of the other processes—jiggering (plate making), jollying (the forming of hollowware), fettling (trimming rough edges)—and these traditional terms give an even greater idea of just how much Burleigh's past melds with its present. Making ceramics the Burleigh way is, as it always was, a complex business, and by the time each item reaches your table it will have passed through at least 25 pairs of hands, including the sponger and the caster, the biscuit brusher and the glost placer. "When we say handmade, we mean it," says Moore.
In the early 20th century, Burgess and Leigh developed the brand name Burleigh, and during the 1920s the company's decorative ware was highly sought-after. But a decline followed World War II, and although its future was secured with a sale to British ceramic manufacturer Denby in 2010, it still faced one huge problem: a decrepit factory that would be impossibly expensive to repair. Its savior? None other than Prince Charles, whose Prince's Regeneration Trust bought the buildings and land and sensitively restored them in a "£9 million, three-year-long project."? There's now also room for small businesses, a craft studio, a café, and a to-die-for factory shop with the most charming displays. The transformation has created a hub of enterprise and craftsmanship, and helped Burleigh more than double its workforce and rapidly increase its exports and online sales.Moore and his team are leading Burleigh into the future, introducing new shapes such as rice and pasta bowls and turning to the incredible resource of the original mold store to reissue classic pieces that work for the modern customer, such as the Etruscan jug (from around 1830), which is perfect for a flower arrangement. It is innovation done in the gentlest way, with the utmost respect for this brand's one-of-a-kind heritage. As Moore says: "I'm treading in the footsteps of hundreds of people before me. Nobody else has this legacy, and it gives Burleigh an authenticity that you just can't fake."

Getting ready for a wedding where everybody expects you to look good, especially if you are the bride? Worry no more because I will give you insights on how you can look your best not just for your groom or the wedding photographer but for everyone who will be witnessing this milestone. Prepping up is an entirely different arena if we are talking about one of the most special events of your lifetime.
Camera Craze
The primary reason of brides for looking good is to be picture perfect. That's what a wedding photographer is for. Every couple who are about to get married invests on a skilled lens man because wedding pictures serve as vivid memories of the day. Even after the event was long done, you will be able to relive the feeling, the emotions, and all the crazy moments that transpired.
Before the day itself, most professionals who handle wedding photography requires a rehearsal. The poses and the type of shots will be based on the theme of the wedding as well as the style of the wedding photographer in documentation. It is very important that you are familiar with your photographer and his style before booking because that will be the basis of the outcome afterwards.
It's All About You
Again, every wedding is all about the bride and the groom first and the rest of the event only comes secondary. Right from the start of the planning stage, you must ensure that your wedding planners understand how you want the scenes to be, what kind of memories you want to make, and basically what kind of wedding you would like to have. It all starts with you.
Everything about the affair – from the flowers to the wedding dress, to the color motif to the food and others – should be decided upon by the couple. There are various suppliers that you may turn to and they are adept to the varying tastes of their clients. It would not be difficult to find one who can recreate your dream wedding into a reality.
When booking suppliers for your wedding, always prioritize your tastes, your wants, your ideals. If you can bend your budget to make your dreams come true, do not think twice about giving in. More than pleasing your guests, this is all about pleasing yourself. If you need to spend a good sum on your wedding make-up to get the look that you want for yourself, you have all the right to do so.
Your wedding is the best event of your life that you have to perfectly look good not just in the eyes of your guests, but also on the camera.
