I've been married for 2 years and now divorced without kids. I am feeling reluctant to talk about myself and my situation to you because i don't know how you will feel. But I will like to let you know all about me and the situation I am into now so that it will not be too late before I let you know. I have had a lot of bad experience in my previous relationships, and i do not want to fall into the same problem anymore, i will like you to give me your words that you really love me and that you want to make a new life with me, because i have been gamed before and i will not want to be gamed or played on again in my life. I am telling you all this, then you can decide if you still want to meet me or not, so that we will not waste each others time, when you get this m ail, kindly give me a response to let me know if you are still interested or not.
I've been divorced now for 2years . I'm the only daughter, the only kid of my folks. I was born in England, My dad is a British man he died 8 yrs ago and my mom is a native of American she died 3 years ago her death touches my heart so much cos i spent most of my life with my mom when she relocated back to the state 15 yrs ago. My Ex , James Morgan gamed me a lot and treated me so bad in our marriage, Well, let me hang on here till I hear from you. I hope you will understand my situation at this time and I hope you will come to my rescue and be of whom i expect you to be. Well to me age and distance does not really matters to me in a relationship, all i seek is honesty.. Well I really need to be Loved because I really deserved it and I need a man that would always be there for me, who will be like a father and husband to me, i will reciprocate true LOVE as well.
Sincerely Sandra

Hello Dear,
I'm so sorry i could get back to you earlier i have a problem with my PC thats why i hope you will understand this..
Its really nice to read your email again, and you really sound like what have been looking for. well Mark, only once in your life, I truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them things that you've never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more.You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you can't wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share in your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh with you when you make a fool of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful.There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid it's like being young again. Colors seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter seems part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn't exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps to get you through a long day's work and always brings a smile to your face. In their presence, there's no need for continuous conversation, but you find you're quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there's a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that's so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are part of your life, am new to this online dating thing and am looking for a soulmate means someone i need for my wholelife, being the only the survival child .now am all alone...trying to trust in a man again...cos i have been gamed in the past...am a lady of my words i like to speak my mind at the right time..and believe in living life to the fulliest am down to earth lady open minded caring loving and humble,am looking for a man with a good heart and lovely soul, am looking for someone i can cuddle with someone i can share my life with and have a kids.. I really want you to know that I believe so much in chemistry and i believe if there is chemistry in a conversation i can move on..i do walking hiking for fun kissing dancing going out for dinners..i love the candle light dinner.. i love colour blue and i love pizza and sand wich, i really want to know more about you and see what goes from there... all I want here is true love. hope to hear from you soon..
Sincerely Sandra...

Hi Dear,
How are you doing right now, hope you are doing pretty good over there?.
Well Mark,my weekend was good, and its really good to hear about your kids, well its so nice to share a lot of feelings with you , well i have imagined you as a nice person and as a caring person too, and i am so much liking what i get to read from you, cause you really know what you want in a relationship, I know life hasn't been easy in the past for any one cause we just want to struggle from the bottom to the top cause no one wants to remain below his demands, well i get to see some things in your words which made me write you and your personality speaks a lot about you,cause you really know how to describe yourself and the things you want in life, well nice try, you really know who you really are and thats what i mean by self personality ,its just all about you knowing who u really are and the things you do to make you a happy man, your words are meaningful cause at least you could write something about yourself, and i know you could say more in person or write more with the aid of you wanting to express yourself, what really do you think of yourself and who do your see yourself as, and what are your dreams and what kind of things do you do to yourself that makes you think you could a special person,or do you have to share your personality with someone before you can really can know how special you are to people, i assume you are the gift of God and God has blessed you with a lot in life all you just need is to focus on things around you and the people around you to know what God has in stock for you, well, how do you go about making a life meaning full for you and how do you try to make others smile by you considering how special you are.
Before a person could think of caring for someone you have to know how special you are to people and how caring you could be, its doesn't matter by you really knowing that person, God might send you to that person for an help and you will be willing to help but it just take time cause the world is never a safe place anymore and there is a lot to learn about people, i my self i have learn a lot from my environment, the things i do and the things i try not to do,i just sit and listen to music read books and make my life meaningful to me and try to be honest about the whole thing i do, cause honesty is only the key to human success and it makes life meaningful if you can apply all the principles of been a special person to people, every day people die and everyday a new one is been born,so we all want to be in a safe place but we don't really know how to go about been there, cause we haven't really learned about the principles of life, life is full of joy if you can discover the joy inside of you,life doesn't begin from your environment,it begins from inside of you,cause life begins if you can began it with a very first step and a very first chance.
If life goes on with one thing there will be another thing that might destroy it, so we just try not to fall a victim of circumstances,i have been through a lot of things in life but that didn't make me to do any silly things in life,it only makes me stronger in a lot of things cause i learn not to put my problems in my head cause if you do it will just weigh you down and it wont allow you think of better things to make your life meaningful, so i just want to make my life meaningful and use it in helping others and its all about me taking a chance to do what i have to do to make the world a loving place and to make people know that there is so much love inside of them to use in helping change the world,life goes on if u began with something real and sincere and you learn to focus about it,and learn to see the principles that quides it, life is been guide with a lot of principles leading to the truth of life and love, the earth alone is filled with so much love but we humans made it hidden cause of the bad things that we thought is good,if we only can learn to bring out the love of life and the life of love and get to make the world a place to live then every one don't have to get scared of each other,cause i have been into alot of things i have tried a lot of things and it didn't really work out for me cause i cant really cheat on my feelings or judge myself for the things i do,i just want to make alot of things come to reality by me focusing on them and wanting it to come to reality,i just want to make people happy with my kind of personality and the wisdom God has given me and i want to make others smile while i make myself smile to as well,there are more things we Still need to learn about our self,if only you can have a time to relax and focus on your thought and have a deep imagination about the whole thing happening in the world, if only you can do that, you will get to see the Good and Bad things on earth and that will surely keep you out of trouble, cause you decided to focus on building yourself in way that could help you and help others,the reason why we are in the world is to be here for one and other and to help when we are in need,but this generation that i have seen has turned to something else,there is a lot of hatred, crime, greed,jealousy, self centered and fornication, all this didn't create or started in one day it all started from individual cause they just wanted to make life meaningless for them self and satisfy there immediate needs,life began inside of us and we need to learn about the way of life to make it meaningful for us My words might sound too prophetic but my life is all about the truth and i mean all i say and do and i really want to start a family i can grow older with and with a man i will do love with all my heart,i do sincerely know What love means to me and others and i go about building it in the right way if only my partner is ready to start a strong and fulfilled relationship.
Mark i know you will be wondering why i choose to get marry to an older man, i choose to love a man older than me cos i know ages are numbers and i think a older man will be in support of my dreams and that is what i think is called marriage " loving imperfect person perfectly...I will really like to know if you are truly serious about me cause i don't want to be hurt never again.... i will like you to know that i am not here to judge your past but i am here to build the present and show you the personalities love has and the really person inside of you.. if you find it so hard discovering the real person in you i am here filled with so much music for you which you could dance to...i know someday i will be great and will be so special to a lot of people but i wanna take life the way i see and meet it.. but i can only change situations..no situation is permanent.we both can change it..forget about the present and think of the beauty of the present and build on it and you will surely see the music in you.. hope to read your mail soon...
Have a nice and lovely day and take good care of your self, and know that someone real and special is coming into your world soon..

Letter 7
Hey, Honey ... I miss you. I'm just here thinking about you, like I always do. I hope you're as happy as me. I miss you, my darling,. I can almost feel you beside me as I write this letter,. But at this moment, these things no longer give me pleasure. how i wish i can see you in person, and I feel sometimes as if the greatest part of who I am is slowly slipping away. I am trying to hold on, though. At night when I am alone, I call for you, and whenever my ache seems to be the greatest. well Mark I know we have many miles separating us but I know we'll make it through. Baby, you mean the world to me and no one can ever compare to you. I think about you all the time, like I said, I wake up to thoughts of you and go to sleep with thoughts of you. Your name repeats over and over in my mind. Each day my love grows stronger for you and I know for a fact that my love will never fade. These miles between us won't fade away but I know that our love will keep us together. well it will really great to meet you i the second we of It's so weird for us to be so far away from each other but yet so close.

Letter 10
Mark My Love,
How was your Night? hope you dreamt of me...
Baby i must confess to you the good news for me i will like you to rejoice with me. i write to inform you that i have an urgent telephone call this morning to start coming down as quickly as possible to West Africa for the payment of a contract executed down there by my late Dad close to 10 yrs ago. The government of that Country refused to pay him then for any reason best known to them. He tried everything he could then to get paid but it could not work out. My name has been ved as next of kin who will receive this payments this time, I was told that the payment has now been approved. by their Government for immediate transfer of the funds.. I am therefore expected to be there latest on Thursday to endorse some payment approval documents.
Mark, i will have to purchased an airplane ticket by tomorrow... I want to assure you that by the special grace of God, I will be through with all that within 3 days. its even better that when i'm through over here, and i will come to you in England and we live to Chicago together..
Mark, i do not know how to express my gratitude towards you. You must understand that you are the that brought this good luck to me, just this period you came into my life, things are beginning to workout positively in my life. In fact words are inadequate to express my sincere gratitude towards knowing someone like you.. I am just praying that this will work out in no distance time so i will be able to come and meet you in England My dear.
Mark I'm gonna miss you... Please take care of yourself for me..
Have a wonderful day,
Big Hugs & Kisses,
Love you Me Sandra..
Letter 11
Hello My Love,
I write to inform you that i arrived Africa very safely... Baby i should have sent you an email but i got so tired after i checked in into the hotel room, Mark i will be going to this bank in the morning so i will keep you update when i get back from the bank okay... Mark you mean so much to me, i want you to know that this is the luckiest thing that has ever happened to me... cos i wasn't expecting this in lifetime, but your presence in my life brought it to me ... Mark i have to let you know about this, I may be able to speak the languages of human beings and even of angels, but if I have no love, my speech is no more than a noisy gong or a clanging bell. I may have the gift of inspired preaching; I may have all knowledge and understand all secrets I may have the faith needed to move mountains-but if I have no love, I am nothing. I may give away everything I have, and even give up my body to be burned-but if I have no love, this does me no good. Mark i tell you this cos i think i have to let you no about this to love someone is to understand each other, to laugh together, to smile with your heart and to trust one another Just because something good ends doesn't mean something better won't begin. My Dear i tell you, I am really happy to to have you and i hope you are happy to have me too my love.
Your presence in my life brings wonderful smiles and loving thoughts within my heart. hope to hear from you soon.
Love You Always..

Honey, I am glad that you came into my life. I have always wanted the love of my life to be understanding, loving, caring, faithful and most of all someone who would accept me for who I am. Now I have found the person I was looking for which is you Mark, I didn't have to think twice when you asked me to be your wife. I knew that you were Mr. Perfect.

Good Morning My Love,
I'm sorry i couldn't talk to you last nite, its rained heavily last nite so it affected there internet connection here, i felt so bad not talking to you Mar... i hope you will understand ..
Well my love like i informed you in my previously that i will be going to the bank today, well honey to be sincere, i do not know how to begin to explain all these to you, I am having some Lil problems with the bank here.
The bank officials are asking for a non deductible amount, processing fee of $5,000 but all i have left with me is just $4,150 out of the total amount i brought to this country. Like I've explained to you, i brought enough money that would have taken care of all these expenses but have spent a lot on tips and other things which brought the payment to this conclusion stage. Well my love, what i need now is just $850 to add up and make up the required amount ($5,000) and pay to the bank to enable them transfer our funds without any further delay. I have submit the Fund Release Order Form, but i was told I need to pay the $5,000 in cash before the fund can be transferred.
The only thing that is presently delaying the transfer is just $850 which i need to make up to what i have at hand. I do not know how it is for you at this time but if you can assist me with this remaining amount, i will really appreciate. The more i stay here, the more the expenses cost i have to continue to pay for my hotel accommodation, feeding and all that stuffs you know. I have asked then to give me time to come up with the required amount.
My love, i want to assure you that i will pay you back with whatever amount you assist me with. I don't mean to ask you for this but i have no choice. You can understand that i have suffered and already inquired a lot to bring the whole thing to this final stage so this little amount should not prevent us. Let us have this concluded so i will start coming over to meet you as soon as possible.
I do believe Happiness for each other is essential love ..doing unto others as you would have them do unto you.. is a saying in the Word i think really rings true Resilience and Endurance comes to the fore ..Long suffering , Patience and Peace and Joy...all the fruit of the Spirit... there is always Joy the word says in the Morning and its true... Mark i don't know how you feel about this, Cos i am really scared of asking from you... cos i don't want you to feel bad about anything, cos i want to build our love and trust to the greatest height.... Hun...i don't know maybe you can help me with this funds... I will be so happy if my help comes from you... and i know you will be willing to help us out on this.... well i will await your reply my love and know maybe you could be able to help me..
Love & Kisses

Is it just us, or are HSV's cars of about a decade ago starting to look a bit dated?
Aside from the brand having moved from the locally developed 5.0-litre V8 to imported, Chevrolet engines of larger capacity and cachet, there's a certain look to the elder HSVs that is very, very '90s.
It probably has a lot to do with the superseded pre-VT body shell we last saw in 1996 but even so, the body kits and feel of the cars place them firmly in a time long past.
That ageing process, and the fact everybody wants a Chevrolet-engined HSV, has forced prices of those earlier cars down. Although Australian muscle cars are enjoying a giant boost in collectability, the older and newest muscle cars are most sought after, with the VR and VS-model HSV ClubSports caught in the middle - not old enough to be truly collectable, too new not to be overshadowed by the Gen 3 Chevrolet engine.
But what does this mean for the most popular HSV model of all time, the ClubSport? Can an early 1990s ClubSport still emerge as a decent road car? Are they good enough to live with for somebody looking for a decent lump of performance metal on a budget?
The answer is "yes" and, since there's plenty for the choosing, finding a good example shouldn't be impossible.
The ClubSport was born in the late 1980s when HSV decided it needed a new entry-level car to attract those who wanted the HSV badge but couldn't justify the price.
Along the way, the company managed to build its most effective performance car to that time, since the "Clubbie" lost a little weight, yet still got the performance hardware that made HSV the brand it was.
By 1993 and the VR Commodore-based range of HSV cars, the ClubSport had matured a little and was partly defined by its appearance, which, in no uncertain terms, was on the loud side. The body kit featured a deep front apron, solid side-skirts, a prominent rear spoiler, and aggressive five-spoke 17-inch alloy wheels.
Under the bonnet, the 5.0-litre V8 was treated to a few HSV tweaks, including a cold-air intake, low-restriction exhaust and some fiddles to the onboard computer.
All up, that endowed the car with 185 kW of power and 400 Nm of torque. Not much in the way of outright power but there's a decent whack of torque and, importantly, much of that driving force was available low in the rev range.
The five-speed manual, if you can find one, is by far the best gearbox to team with the V8, and far more satisfying than the four-speed automatic.
While the manual featured an accurate shift action, there can be a few rumbling, rattling noises from the gearbox and shifter now that the ClubSport will have covered an easy 160,000-180,000 km.
The auto, too, is capable of contributing its share of noises and has the annoying habit of sometimes shifting down two gears when one would do. It's also inconsistent in terms of where and when it will shift but the big torque of the 5.0-litre engine masks this to an extent.
The ride quality in a VR/VS ClubSport is nothing special - a little firm for some tastes, although the car's long wheelbase, wide track and independent rear suspension make it stable and easy to punt around on a racetrack. The steering lacks feedback and is heavy, despite its standard power assistance. Overall, the ClubSport had a raw, racy feel.
HSV fitted anti-lock brakes to the ClubSport as standard, although the airbag that was standard on the Holden Acclaim was deleted on the VR Clubsport in the name of a racier-looking sports tiller. By the time the VS model came along, the driver's airbag was standard.
Things to watch for include worn out mechanicals, since the ClubSport is a car that begged to be driven hard. The 5.0-litre Holden engine has a reputation for springing oil leaks, usually around the rear main seal, and revved hard, the engine could flip its fan-belt into the scenery, which, if ignored for a few minutes, could overheat the engine.
Make sure everything electrical works as it should and check that trim pieces are fastened and haven't discoloured.
What to pay
You will still need to find at least mid-teens to get into a VR ClubSport, such is the prestige placed by V8 fans on the HSV badge. A VS with the driver's airbag should fetch mid-to-late teens while a late-model VS Series 2 with about 140,000 km showing can easily break the $20,000 barrier. It's also worth doing the sums on insurance before you park one in your garage.
The competition
Not much of a local, big-bodied, big-performance car comes close to a ClubSport, although the Ford Falcon V8 Sprint probably comes closest. Even then, the Falcon lacks the cachet of the HSV brand and is neither as hard-edged to drive nor as radical to look at.
Prices and details correct at publication.

There is no denying that a corrupt judge is worse than an armed robber. Last week's soft-landing for two judges accused of corruption by the National Judicial Council shows that we are not serious about the fight against corruption.
Even though the NJC had been commended for its action, the action of the NJC deserves no commendation. By recommending two judges — Justice C. E. Archibong of the Federal High Court, Lagos and Justice T.D. Naron of High Court of Justice, Plateau State — whom it found guilty of compromising their sacrosanct offices, for "compulsory retirement", what the NJC had done was to tell the judges to go home and enjoy the proceeds from their corruption. A corrupt official should be summarily dismissed or recommended for dismissal, not sent on "compulsory retirement." Retirement presupposes that the judges are entitled to all their benefits after a meritorious service, but dismissal means that their tenure had a question mark.
It was also curious that there was no comment from the NJC that suggested that it planned to report the judges to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission or the police for prosecution. The NJC's recommendation that the two judges be compulsorily retired by their employers, the Federal Government and the Plateau State Government respectively, was not different from the unpopular fine of N750,000 Justice Abubakir Talba gave to Mr John Yusuf, a self-confessed thief, who admitted to have stolen N2bn of the N27.2 billion of missing police pension fund a few weeks back. In that same case, Justice Talba, who is also being investigated by the NJC, insulted the sensibilities of Nigerians and made us a laughing stock of the world, by that ridiculous judgment.
The action and inaction of Nigerians at all levels show that it pays to be corrupt in Nigeria. And if corruption pays, it is logical that corruption will worsen in Nigeria. Integrity hardly pays here. If it ever does, it pays in trickles. But corruption pays in billions of naira, which are used to make donations to churches, mosques, communities and universities, to "cleanse" the corrupt money and acquire prayers, titles, awards and honours.
Nigerians love to pontificate and lament about corruption but when a person is being tried for corruption or a crime, his people gather around the court premises, sometimes in clothes bearing the accused's picture and name, and praise him for being a rare gem. Such people claim that their son is being persecuted for his stand against the government. Another comment from such people is: "Is he the only corrupt person? Why haven't other corrupt people been arrested too?"
Taking it further, it was ridiculous that the House of Representatives and the Senate gave the anti-terrorism bill accelerated hearing, giving a 20-year jail term for a "terrorist", while not doing anything to strengthen the anti-corruption law. Section 2(c) of the bill defines "act of terrorism" as any act by anyone who is involved in or who causes an attack upon a person's life which may cause serious bodily harm or death; kidnapping of a person; destruction to a government or public facility, transport system, an infrastructural facility including an information system, a fixed platform located on the continental shelf, public place or private property likely to endanger human life or result in major economic loss. Almost all the states have also passed laws on kidnapping with a capital punishment for the crime. These are commendable steps. But a serious doctor who wants to cure malaria would not focus primarily on headache or fever and discountenance the root cause of the headache and fever: malaria.
It is, therefore, laughable that such laws are being passed in a country where the maximum penalty for stealing billions of public funds is about two years. Just as in the cases of former Governor Diepreye Alamieyeseigha, and former Inspector-General of Police, Mr Tafa Balogun; by the time they were sentenced, they had spent such periods of time in detention, and consequently walked out of detention as free as a bird. Why then would someone in office not steal as much as he can?
It is the same fate that befalls drug traffickers and advance-fee fraudsters in Nigeria: Their sentences are usually less than two years. By the time their cases are done with, they just walk out of detention, because they must have spent up to a year in detention while the case was on. Such a person begins to plan for the next crime, because the punishment for the crime is ridiculous.
In contrast, those who steal a goat worth N5, 000 or a motorcycle worth N30, 000 are sentenced to up to 10 years in prison. Some are even forgotten in detention for over 10 years without any trial. Many of them die in the terrible prisons in the nation.
Rather than speedily passing laws on terrorism and kidnapping, which are indirect products of the monumental corruption in the nation, one would have expected the National Assembly to have amended the laws on corruption, drug trafficking, fraud – three crimes that have made every Nigerian a suspect in all parts of the world – and recommending a minimum of 20 years prison term for such offences with no option of fine. That is still more lenient than the death penalty in countries like China, Indonesia, Malaysia for such crimes. Such heavy sentences will not deter hardened criminals from such crimes, but before anyone decides to embark on such a crime, the person will know that if caught and jailed, chances are that he/she will come out prison in his/her old age.
And this fight against corruption does not stop only with public officers who steal public funds or demand bribes for contracts and appointments; it also involves the private citizens who demand bribes to award contracts to certain companies. It involves the private citizen who collects gratification to continue to use particular suppliers for jobs. It involves the man or woman who will not sign a document on his or her table unless a certain amount of money is made. It involves the pastor that collects money before he can pray for a sick person, or the pastor that does not care how his members make the money they donate to his church; or the journalist that will demand money before he can write a story, or the journalist that will collect money to kill a story; or the lecturer that will demand money or sex to give a student good grades; or the community, church, mosque or university that celebrates a person known to be a criminal; or even the ordinary Nigerian that keeps quiet about the corruption of his or her friend or relative. Corruption is corruption — whether big or small — and it is dangerous to the growth of a nation.
It is contradictory and hypocritical for our people to complain bitterly about corruption in public places, yet when our relative or kinsman gets into any political office, we believe that it is his turn to get rich. And if he leaves office without stupendous wealth, we call him foolish or holier-than-thou. In addition, once our kinsman gets into office, we mount personal and communal pressure on him with a long list of many things he must accomplish for us.
The time has come for us to stop commending any effort that is a mere slap on the wrist of a corrupt person. If we don't fight corruption with zest, the wealth of this nation will continue to be stolen by a few people, and all efforts to transform this nation will be in vain.

Feminine yet sporty!
I love this sporty n pretty. Thanks for creative designer and maker. Keep making more flower pattern with yellow, lavender, coral color and plaid pattern. This colorful creation will also create a conflicted shopper hunger for more even their closet is already full. P.S. Everything perfect and seems lasting for a long time except the mesh fabric might last just half as long as the rest of the dress's "longevity". I like this very much and later on could not find the same one to replace. Especially the neck part for on and off pulling I am so worried it get ripped one of these days. This is why I took out one star. The ruffle mesh at hem should be be fine. To the designer and maker, your daring of doing some different, being artistic and stepping out the box ideas are well appreciated by higher standard and fashionable shoppers!
Love this dress!
Super comfortable, not short. Everyone loved the dress!

Carson Wentz's giant leap in Year 2 sets a path for Mitch Trubisky
Therein lies much of the hope that Trubisky's heretofore difficult rookie season might pay dividends next season.
Therein lies much of the hope that Trubisky's heretofore difficult rookie season might pay dividends next season.
Having missed a kick in each of his first two career regular-season games, Cairo Santos' career was teetering just as it was getting started.
The Bears put outside linebacker Leonard Floyd on injured reserve Thursday.
Compared to Fox, Loggains and Rodgers, Fangio seemingly has gotten a free pass by all.
Jeffery's departure is emblematic of the Bears' fortunes in the post-Lovie Smith era: Even when they get one right, it turns out wrong.
"My role is just to do things the right way in the week, do a good job running the scout team," Glennon said. "Anything I can do to be that leader."
After practicing for the first time since Oct. 27 — albeit with an orange non-contact jersey on — Dion Sims said he wanted to play Sunday.
If the rookie quarterback worsens the Bears' draft position by playing well and winning games, it should be celebrated, not bemoaned.
Ask most any NFL coach, and they'll tell you that "injuries are part of the game," "next man up" and all the other coachspeak.
Floyd, the Bears' first-round pick in 2016, had 5 ½ sacks this season.
CBS Sports' Brady Quinn suggested in a recent radio interview that Michigan is trying to keep Harbaugh's khakis on their sidelines for life.
Jeffery, who spent the previous five season with the Bears, will face his former team Sunday.
Bears defensive back Deiondre' Hall began practicing with the team Wednesday, sources confirmed,
The Bears have a 0.1 percent chance of making the NFL playoffs, according to MakeNFLPlayoffs.com.
In the latest Halas Intrigue, Patrick Finley compares Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky's path to that of another No. 2 overall pick, Carson Wentz

In 1865, as the American Civil War winds inexorably toward conclusion, U.S. president Abraham Lincoln endeavors to achieve passage of the landmark constitutional amendment which will forever ban slavery from the United States. However, his task is a race against time, for peace may come at any time, and if it comes before the amendment is passed, the returning southern states will stop it before it can become law. Lincoln must, by almost any means possible, obtain enough votes from a recalcitrant Congress before peace arrives and it is too late. Yet the president is torn, as an early peace would save thousands of lives. As the nation confronts its conscience over the freedom of its entire population, Lincoln faces his own crisis of conscience -- end slavery or end the war.

Plateau State government has lifted the curfew imposed on the state in the wake of the recent crisis that rocked it and wished Muslim Umma well during the Ramadan fast.
In a statement by the state Commissioner for Information and Communication, Mr. Yiljap Abraham, the state government said "following a careful review of the security situation in Plateau State, and after due consultation wt the State security council, the Governor of Plateau State, Dr Jonah Jang has approved the complete lifting of the curfew earlier imposed on Jos North, Jos South, Riyom and Barkin Ladi LGAs with immediate effect."
The statement added, "By this action, Government expects that citizens will use this period to work harder towards a safer and more peaceful Plateau. They should reciprocate this gesture by avoiding any action that will lead to breakdown of law and order and co-operate fully with the security agencies.
"All citizens are enjoined to use this opportunity to pray fervently for the general well being of the state. A return to a no-curfew therefore calls for extra vigilance by every citizen."
Meanwhile, the Special Task Force (STF) in the state, in a separate statement has also wished the Muslims in the State a happy Ramadan month, urging them to embrace peace and pray for the restoration of full peace in the state.

Adopting a healthy dog is never an innocuous life choice, since it is the beginning of an enriching affective adventure.
Choosing a healthy dog means starting this adventure under the best auspices by making sure it will be as long as possible.
Since the first few weeks of a puppy's life are decisive from the point of view of health, the setting in which they take place is paramount. Choosing a healthy dog from a qualified breeder is therefore an excellent initiative to avoid sick animals, an additional rapid examination that can confirm the flourishing health of the newly protected breeder.
As in humans, good dog health depends on prevention
Choosing a healthy dog in a breeding farm or in a shelter approved by the prefecture offers certain advantages. The shelters are in charge of bringing the dogs into conformity with the legal provisions, in particular with regard to identification (identification by electronic chip or tattoo), sterilization and vaccination. The dogs raised there, followed by veterinarians, and they are immunized against common contagious diseases. The quality of the breeders is very variable, but the reputation of the best of them is deserved: their puppies benefit from education and health monitoring of the first order.
Only rabies vaccine is mandatory in France and still only in certain exposed areas or in certain circumstances. The virtual eradication of rabies in domestic animals in developed countries should not make us forget that other epidemics can affect dogs, especially those living in communities. Vaccination is very effective and highly recommended, in particular, against the disease of Square.
The 10 points to look at (eyes, mucous membranes, hairs, testicles, abdomen, anal area, teeth …)
It is possible to have a fairly good overview of the overall health of a dog by conducting a rapid clinical examination. The external appearance of the animal, if well studied, is often sufficient to detect one or more serious pathologies. The points to be observed particularly in an animal that one wants to adopt are:
Eyes, which must be clean, while a lower white or yellow eyelid may reveal blood or liver disease
Ears, no deposit and odorless in healthy dog
The truffle: if its temperature and humidity are not necessarily significant, a nasal discharge is important more
The dentition, a fresh breath being de rigueur as jaws without prognathism (made to project excessively forward)
Yellowish discoloration around the anal area often indicates diarrhea
The testes are detectable on palpation in dogs whose genitals are operational
The hair has brightness in healthy dog.
The abdomen should not be painful on palpation, nor swollen, except after meals.
The skin should be healthy and elastic.
The vivacity of the dog is generally good sign, its agility also proves the absence of joint problems
Further observations can be made in case of doubt. Examination of the stool and urine or the taking of temperature, are other means to ensure the good health of a dog. The expertise and advice of a veterinarian are obviously necessary to confirm or disprove the diagnoses established on the basis of this summary review.

Day 1
Ende to Moni
When you arrive at Ende airport, you'll be collected by your driver for a journey across beautiful countryside to the picturesque village of Moni. You'll spend the night at a local homestay, where you'll receive an incredibly warm welcome. You'll stay in the guest quarters of the homestay separate from the family in a simple basic room without hot water, but the trade off is completely worth it.
Day 2
Sunrise at Kelimutu volcano
Before dawn, you'll set off to Kelimutu volcano for a spectacular sunrise. On a clear day, Kelimutu is one of the most amazing sights in the world. The three cater lakes change colour depending on the mineral content in the water. The local people believe that the lakes are the final resting place of the dead – one lake for the elderly, another for young people and a third for witches.
The climb up to the top of the Kelimutu volcano is fairly easy and you'll do most of it by car, leaving you with just a steep flight of steps up to the highest point. From here, you can look out across all three crater lakes. Next, you'll continue to Bajawa, visiting a small village with traditional wooden houses and high thatched reed roofs on the way. This is where the Ikats are made – intricately woven fabrics made up of individually dyed threads. You'll arrive in the late afternoon.
Day 3
Inerie volcano & Soa hot springs
Today, you'll walk along the foot of Inerie volcano, visiting small villages as you walk in the shade of the towering bamboo forest. One of the most authentic villages is Bena, where the little houses with straw roofs are built in two rows along a line of megalithic stones. These stones are still used for sacrifice to the spirits. You can still witness ceremonies being carried out at the ritual houses.
In the afternoon, you'll visit the hot springs at Soa, where you can wallow in the warm water. Many local people wash and scrub themselves in the springs, giving you a glimpse into real daily life. For many people, including the guides and drivers, this is the only place on Flores where they can find hot water.
Afterwards, you'll drive back to Bajawa, where you'll spend another night in your hotel.
Day 4
Bajawa to Ruteng
Next, you'll travel from Bajawa to Ruteng, crossing through isolated areas on the way. You'll arrive in the cool town of Ruteng in the afternoon, leaving you plenty of time to explore and visit the lively market packed with colourful embroidered sarongs. You'll stay in a simple but cosy hotel in Ruteng.
Day 5
Ruteng to Labuan Bajo
Today, you'll travel downhill towards Labuan Bajo, a nice beach-side town in a beautiful secluded bay; the gateway to the Komodo National Park. This is where the trip ends, leaving you to continue your adventure through Indonesia.

Secrets of Success
Slow, small steps= progress
Tuesday, May 18, 2010
I'm back to the gym!
I picked myself up, went out and got a bathing suit that fits, and have returned to the gym. I am going to water aerobics twice a week at the Y. Wonderful group of people.
I also started physical therapy at "Back to Basics". They have given me hope that I will be able to work through this injury and walk normally again. It's just going so SLOW and I'm frustrated. I walked a great deal on saturday and really have "felt it" since that time.
I have started "digging out the house". Donated three bags of clothing to Goodwill, throwing away things that are broken or not in good enough repair for GW.
I believe this is all about taking things a bite at a time instead of trying to devour everything in sight. I have also discovered the wellness articles- I am going to use "I" statements today.
I have the power to succeed
I have the tools right here to help me
I have choices everyday, today I choose to value myself and take the steps to get going and get Healthy!

WOOHOO!! I know that feels good to be back! I'm so glad to hear good things are happening for you now! I know how that feels. I've had enough sickness and injuries, and I know how that can inhibit progress and just generally get you down. Good for you for jumping back in and not giving up, I'm proud of you! That's great about the goodwill stuff. I know how that feels, I'm doing that right now too. I have a chair full of stuff right now that needs to go out this weekend :) Looking forward to the next bit of good news!
