Who should be the Tigers closer? Jim Leyland wants your advice.
Jim Leyland needs your help. Right now he is stuck in a jam on whom he should be calling on to pitch for the Tigers in the ninth inning. At least that's what he told Bob Nightengale of USA Today:
"Some fans believe [Jose] Valverde is a Leyland creation," Leyland says. "They think the manager loves him or he wouldn't be here. I don't understand who they think we should be closing with. I'm asking that question, 'Who the (expletive) should I be closing with? I mean, do they want some rookie kid? I don't understand that. Who the (expletive) should I close with? Who do you want me to close with? Who the (expletive) do you want to be the closer? … I don't know what the (expletive) these people want. They just throw stuff out there. People just talk, they don't think about it. Sometimes it boggles my mind."
In my opinion, the closer for now should still be Valverde. Before you bite my head off and question my creditability hear me out. Valverde didn't get a spring training. Until April 4th he was a free agent with no place to play and no chance of seeing live hitting until he pitched in his game on April 20 with Single-A Lakeland. I look at it this way, the first 30 days after making his season debut was Valverde's "spring training".
Since May 20, the artificial start of Valverde's real season, he has blown two saves. This is baseball and as cliché as it may sound three strikes and you're out. If Valverde blows one more save within the next few weeks he should be gone. No questions asked. Sorry Papa Grande you've been given enough chances and know your only real secondary pitch isn't splitting the way it did two years ago. You are no longer an asset but now a giant liability.
But if Valverde isn't the answer as the closer, then who should get the ninth inning role?
ESPN's Buster Olney wrote an article that the Tigers best option would be to trade for Phillies closer Jonathon Papelbon. His numbers are great this year, he has post-season experience and with the Phillies not having the season they expected, the Phillies front office might be willing to deal him for some younger talent to build around. And while the Tigers could easily afford his salary ($13M in 2014 and '15 with a vesting option in '16), what and whom they would have to give up in terms of prospects might be steep. But if there is a GM in baseball who could make it happen Dave Dombrowski is certainly that man.
But trading for a new closer isn't the only option. The Tigers could still stick with someone in house with the most popular choice being Joaquin Benoit. The problem with moving Benoit to the closer spot is that this will just create a new area of concern. Who will be the 8th inning guy? Benoit has been so effective as the set-up man do you the Tigers really want to risk moving him out of that role?
Drew Smyly has been another name thrown around as a suitable 9th inning guy. Smyly has been incredible out of the pen this year after starting the majority of 2012 and he has faced enough high pressures situations that he could take off the closer duties and do just fine.
However, what might be the best option if Valverde can't get it together is to do what the plan was along at the beginning of the year, and that would giving the duties to Bruce Rondon.
Despite getting roughed up during spring training and during a short stint in Detroit earlier this season, Rondon has been sensational at Triple-A Toledo this year. The biggest concern with Rondon is his command and while the 22 year old righty has walked 12 hitters over 24 innings of work, his WHIP is an extremely impressive .84 while holding batters to just a .112 BA against.
The closer position is still a giant question mark and needs to be figured out. However, the good thing for the Tigers is that they should be able to win the AL Central easily and will have time to figure it out. The only thing I do know is that despite his ability to do pretty much everything else on the diamond, Miguel Cabrera is not the answer to the Tigers closer situation.

Although there are several experiments that can be used to identify potential CSCs, a functional in vivo experiment with immunocompromised mice has been the "gold standard" assay, Dr. Wang said.
Many of the markers used to identify CSCs came from "studying normal systems," Dr. Matsui explained. In brain tumors, for instance, early research focused on the cell-surface protein CD133, which had been identified as a marker for normal neural stem cells. In addition to brain cancer, CD133 has been used to identify potential CSCs in colon cancer, whereas CD44 has been used to identify breast cancer stem cells, and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), in combination with other markers, has been used to identify CSCs for breast, prostate, and pancreatic cancer.
Once researchers have identified a marker or multiple markers of interest, they take a human tumor sample and separate them from one another based on the presence or absence of those markers.
The cells are injected into the mice at varying sites to see if the mice that received the potentially tumorigenic cells—those with the proposed stem cell marker(s)—develop tumors, while those that received the nontumorigenic cells do not. If the initial experiment shows the expected tumor development, additional "passages" of the proposed CSCs—this time, fractionated out from the mouse tumors—are done in other mice to more firmly establish the marker-bound cells' tumor-forming capacity.
Other animal-model assays are also being used, including mice that are genetically engineered to develop certain tumors and a zebrafish model.

The Bull could be considered the worker bee of the Zodiac, not the image you might have of this hard-charging sort. Taurus is reliable and loyal, easy to get along with and a good team player. They're also practical and grounded, as befits an Earth Sign.
If you want things to get done, call the Bull. You may have to ring them two or three times, though, since they can be a bit lazy to get going, but once they're up and running, look out! There's a focus and single-mindedness of purpose there that can come in plenty handy. Taureans can be notoriously strong-willed, so it's a good idea for colleagues to lay down the law first -- the Bull will follow their lead and work hard. So hard, in fact, that Taureans are often the pillar of a company, the community and certainly their family. Hey, that's what those strong shoulders are for! Organization is also something that is best placed in the Bull's capable hands.
While the Bull can do well in business, an artistic streak is also present. More apparent, though, can be the Bull's frequent stubborn streaks, which can defeat a lot of hard work. And that temper! It's mercifully swift, so duck while plates are flying, and you'll be fine. If Taureans can keep their focus on the steady accumulation of material goods and an occasional dose of earthy, sensual pleasures, life will be grand.
The Taurus office is likely to be a comfy, cozy den, a place where guests will feel welcome and the Bull can hold court. Driving around between appointments is likely to be done in a sport utility vehicle, with ski racks on top as a sign of practicality and success. If it's a lunch date you crave, the Bull can just as easily take you for a BLT or filet mignon -- it all depends on your value to this discerning member of the Zodiac.
Taureans are well suited as bankers, artists, accountants, musicians, gardeners or any profession that requires patience and determination.

The big storm heading for the Northeast disrupted air travel, with over 2,100 flights canceled for Friday.
A storm poised to dump up to 3 feet of snow from New York City to Boston and beyond beginning Friday could be one for the record books, forecasters warned, as residents scurried to stock up on food and water and road crews readied salt and sand.
United Airlines said it canceled 900 flights for Friday in advance of the storm. Delta Air Lines Inc. canceled 740. American Airlines was scrapping about 200, according to airline tracking website FlightAware.
As of late Thursday, 2,134 Friday flights within, into, or out of the U.S. had been canceled, according to FlightAware. The airports with the most cancellations are Newark Liberty, New York's LaGuardia and JFK and Boston's Logan International in that order.
On Thursday, the biggest weather problems are in Chicago. 225 flights were canceled at O'Hare. The Chicago Department of Aviation says passengers at O'Hare should expect up to 60 minute delays on inbound and outbound flights. At Midway, dozens of flights were canceled and as of 9:30 p.m. Thursday, delays were around 30 minutes.
"I was only delayed about a half an hour," O'Hare passenger Michael Stull said. "I was fortunate to get out of Boston before the two feet came so it was either get on the last flight out or stay the weekend."
"I was suppose to leave on an 8 o'clock flight, but the weather conditions coming from Wisconsin was bad so it made me late so the next flight is 6 a.m.," another passenger said Thursday.
Airlines issued so-called "weather waivers," allowing passengers flying in the storm-affected areas to change their flight date without paying a change fee.
In recent years airlines have tried to get ahead of big storms by canceling flights in advance rather than crossing their fingers that they could operate in bad weather. Travelers can still face dayslong delays in getting home, but the advanced cancellations generally mean they get more notice and can wait out the storm at home or a hotel, rather than on a cot at the airport.
In addition reservation systems have been programmed to automatically rebook passengers when flights are canceled. And travelers now receive notifications by email, phone or text message.
From the airports to the roads, the wet snow also created problems for Chicago drivers. The Department of Streets and Sanitation says they are focusing on the main streets and there could be delays before side streets are cleared and salted.
199 plow trucks are navigating through snow covered highways and side streets. FOX 32 News has learned the full fleet was not deployed since the bulk of the snowfall is to the north.
Before the first snowflake had fallen, Boston, Providence, R.I., Hartford, Conn., and other towns and cities in New England and upstate New York towns canceled school Friday, and airlines scratched more than 2,600 flights through Saturday, with the disruptions from the blizzard certain to ripple across the U.S.
"This one doesn't come along every day. This is going to be a dangerous winter storm," said Alan Dunham, meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Taunton, Mass. "Wherever you need to get to, get there by Friday afternoon and don't plan on leaving."
The snow began falling Friday morning in some areas, with the heaviest amounts falling at night and into Saturday. Wind gusts could reach 75 mph. Widespread power failures were feared, along with flooding in coastal areas still recovering from Superstorm Sandy in October.
Boston could up to 3 feet of snow, while New York City was expecting 10 to 12 inches. Mayor Michael Bloomberg said plows and 250,000 tons of salt were being put on standby. To the south, Philadelphia was looking at a possible 2 to 5 inches.
"We hope forecasts are exaggerating the amount of snow, but you never can tell," Bloomberg said, adding that at least the bad weather is arriving on a weekend, when the traffic is lighter and snowplows can clean up the streets more easily.
Amtrak said its Northeast trains will stop running Friday afternoon. The organizers of New York's Fashion Week - a closely watched series of fashion shows held under a big tent - said they will have extra crews to help with snow removal and will turn up the heat and add an extra layer to the venue.
Blizzard warnings were posted for parts of New Jersey and New York's Long Island, as well as portions of Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut, including Hartford, New Haven, Conn., and Providence. The warnings extended into New Hampshire and Maine.
In New England, it could prove to be among the top 10 snowstorms in history, and perhaps even break Boston's record of 27.6 inches, set in 2003, forecasters said. The last major snowfall in southern New England was well over a year ago - the Halloween storm of 2011.
Dunham said southern New England has seen less than half its normal snowfall this season, but "we're going to catch up in a heck of a hurry." He added: "Everybody's going to get plastered with snow."
Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick ordered non-emergency state workers to stay home Friday and urged private employers to do the same.
Diane Lopes was among the shoppers who packed a supermarket Thursday in the coastal fishing city of Gloucester, Mass. She said she went to a different grocery earlier in the day but it was too crowded. Lopes said she has strep throat and normally wouldn't leave the house but had to stock up on basic foods - "and lots of wine."
She chuckled at the excitement the storm was creating in a place where snow is routine.
"Why are us New Englanders so crazy, right?" she said.
At a Shaw's supermarket in Belmont, Mass., Susan Lichtenstein stocked up, with memories of a 1978 blizzard on her mind. "This is panic shopping, so bread, milk, a snow shovel in case our snow shovel breaks," she said.
In New Hampshire, Dartmouth College student Evan Diamond and other members of the ski team were getting ready for races at the Ivy League school's winter carnival.
"We're pretty excited about it because this has been an unusual winter for us," he said. "We've been going back and forth between having really solid cold snaps and then the rain washing everything away."
But he said the snow might be too much of a good thing this weekend: "For skiing, we like to have a nice hard surface, so it will be kind of tough to get the hill ready."
The governors of Connecticut and Massachusetts ordered nonessential state workers to stay home Friday and urged travelers to stay home.
Terrance Rodriguez, a doorman at a luxury apartment complex in Boston, took the forecast in stride.
"It's just another day in Boston. It's to be expected. We're in a town where it's going to snow," he said. "It's like doomsday prep. It doesn't need to be. People just take it to the extreme."
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Evening Reading: Weekend ConfirmedNot really sure where the confusion started but to clear it up once and for all; yes, this is the Evening Reading post. And here we are at the end of another week the biggest news of which was the excessive use of the word "javelin" in non-Olympic sport related stories. I have to admit I've never gotten the extreme to which griefing and glitching grows in game communities. Sure, there's the whole hahaha, wasn't that funny of it but the number of people who seriously get off on screwing up games makes me wonder what the hell.
I think part of the phenomenon comes not from anything to do with the game but the sense of power derived from breaking the rules to put yourself in charge. It is just a game after all so the consequences are what? Nothing really. That unhooks the usual restraints and it's hard to really reestablish them in a virtual world to put things back in balance. Server tools definitely go a long way in cases where you get admins who care enough to manage things by hand. But for the vast majority of open servers across PCs and consoles the hope lies with designers finding a solution to a better self-policing community.
Here's the rest of what we were up to today:
- The Australians brought out he banhammer again, this time for Aliens vs. Predator
- Homefront isn't even out yet but there's already DLC and a sequel planned
- Metal Gear Solid: Peacewalked set to hit PSP in May for US and Eurpoe
- Brink may be delayed but it sure is looking good in these new videos
After her high-profile trial that included all kinds of accusations, American student Amanda Knox found guilty of murdering her roommate in Italy
British professional tennis player Andy Murray got dumped by his gorgeous girlfriend Kim Sears for his seven-hour-a-day PS3 habit
Okay, so the Hollywood Reporter broke down the ten most watched shows (individual episodes) since 2000. No surprise to see Friends there at the top but Joe Millionaire in thrid?
As long as we're chronicling the decade we might as well take a look at the evolution of the hipster
And since it's Friday I figure this is the perfect time for a NSFW link so hey, if you have a snugie, check out the snuggiesutra for some creative ways to put it to good use

Donations committee is committed to transparency in the handling of our finances. Donations committee does not control the distribution of funds, it is focused on securing them. Budgeting and distribution decisions will be handled by a separate committee, staffed by different individuals, in order to maintain accountability. Those on Donations Committee work hard. It is not a committee where serious issues can fall through the cracks, because the consequences of irresponsibility are huge. We hope that this separation of influence and dedication to hard work will inspire the confidence of the General Assembly, which will allow us to make certain autonomous decisions as a committee on the intricacies of greater issues, which will we will bring to the GA.

I was just a kid the only time I wet a hook in the Saline/Larto Lake area. My dad took my brother and me fishing down in that part of the world and introduced us to some of the most exciting crappie fishing action I ever enjoyed.
Since then, I've including fishing reports from that area of east-central Louisiana in reports I do each month for Louisiana Sportsman magazine. My reports, however, have been the result of telephone contacts with a guide down in that area. As far as hands-on experience, I haven't had any since that trip with my dad long ago.

SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener Product Facts
SweetLeaf Questions & AnswersWhat is SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener?SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener is America's original stevia sweetener and the only absolutely pure, leaf-derived, chemically-free stevia sweetener available in the marketplace today. It has zero calories, zero carbohydrates and zero glycemic index. The makers of SweetLeaf have been working with stevia longer than anyone else in America.
What is stevia?Stevia is a naturally sweet plant indigenous to South America where it has been used to sweeten food and beverages for more than 500 years. The sweet compounds found within the leaves are called glycosides, with rebaudioside A (also known as reb A) being the sweetest.
What are the ingredients in SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener?SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener contains only two ingredients: natural stevia leaf extract and inulin, a soluble vegetable fiber. Inulin is a naturally occurring prebiotic that nourishes the body's good intestinal flora, supporting good digestive health and immune function. That's it!
What makes SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener superior to other stevia-based products available in the marketplace?SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener is the only sweetener in the world to use cool, purified water and a revolutionary filtration process to extract a select blend of glycosides. Because no chemicals, solvents, alcohols or additional processes are used at any stage of production, SweetLeaf needs no masking or flavoring agents to hide anything. It simply has a clean, sweet taste that is ideal for all food and beverages.
What is the difference between stevia and artificial sweeteners?The main difference is that stevia is natural, not synthetic. The reason artificial sweeteners exist in the first place is to sweeten food and beverages without adding calories or adversely impacting blood sugar. SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener provides the best of both worlds - natural sweetness with no calories, carbs or glycemic index.
Can SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener be used in the management of diabetes?Yes. SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener has zero carbohydrates and zero glycemic index, so it doesn't affect blood sugar.
Can SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener be used in weight management?Yes. SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener can be added to sugar-free and fat-free foods to keep calories and carbohydrates as minimal as possible. By using SweetLeaf instead of other natural or synthetic sweeteners, you can enjoy coffee, tea, yogurt, oatmeal, cereal, smoothies and many other foods and beverages while staying on track with your weight goals.
Can SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener be used in cooking and baking?Yes. Please visit the recipe page on this site for deliciously tempting ways to use SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener. They also encourage you to join them on Facebook where their active SweetLeaf community posts tips and recipes.

Some of our 20 flavored liquids have completed the process of Non-GMO Project Verified; the remaining are in process.
What is the FDA's position on SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener?SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener was the first stevia sweetener to receive GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) status from the FDA in March 2008. Rigorous evaluation of the combination of glycosides used in the extract formulation was performed by two separate panels of scientists, independent of one another. Both GRAS Associates, LLC and Life Science Research Office concluded SweetLeaf to be GRAS. To further underscore the findings, the FDA issued a "No Questions" letter to Wisdom Natural Brands in 2009.Green Practices
The stevia plants grown for SweetLeaf are a select variety, capable of producing harvestable leaf-laden branches every six to eight weeks for the entire five to seven years of their natural life cycle. They use non-intrusive harvesting methods to positively impact the ecology of the land.
They process their stevia leaves with a proprietary technique that uses only cool, purified water and an exclusive revolutionary filtration to extract the sweet glycosides. Because they never use chemicals, solvents, enzymes or alcohols at any stage of production, they're able to distribute the spent water to local farmers to irrigate their fields and SweetLeaf leaf residue becomes cattle feed or ground mulch.
Even the SweetLeaf box is made from 100% recycled paperboard and is printed with vegetable-based, eco-friendly inks.About SweetLeafAward-winning SweetLeaf Stevia Sweetener is unique in the marketplace because it's America's original stevia-based sweetener.
When James May was introduced to the naturally sweet leaves of the stevia plant by a Peace Corps worker in 1982, he learned the high-quality, unprocessed stevia leaves can be 30 times sweeter than sugar. When processed, the sweetest parts of the plant, called glycosides, are extracted from the leaves and isolated. The combination of these compounds is 300 times sweeter than sugar and contains no calories or carbohydrates. Mr. May also learned the Guarani tribes of South America had consumed the plant for centuries and stood as testament to its safety. They called the plant Ka'a He'ê, which means "sweet herb."
Mr. May had always been personally and professionally keen on issues of health, but it was the extraordinary sweet taste of the stevia leaf that convinced him to change the direction of his life to fully explore this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Mr. May immediately invested nearly all of his life savings to become the first person to manufacture and market stevia products for the U.S. market. To ensure a steady supply of premium stevia for his stevia products, Mr. May met directly with Latin American farmers and encouraged them to grow stevia that he would in turn buy. Providing the farmers with an incentive to grow crops for legal commerce has, over the years, helped undermine the narcotics economy that has plagued the region for decades. Through Mr. May's influence, a number of native farmers have chosen to grow stevia rather than crops such as marijuana and coca for cocaine.
Over the years, Mr. May challenged a number of government regulations before becoming the first company to receive GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) status for a line of stevia products.

quality magnet
Photo Tradition Save the Date Magnets People commented on receiving these magnets and I'm so glad our faces are on our friends's refrigerators. I did not know if sizing was flexible, but I was very pleased with what I ordered. I ALSO appreciated the on-line support supplied by Magnet Street as I am definitely technologically challenged. But they helped when I needed it, and I ended up with a great result!
Great magnet for save the date
Photo Tradition Save the Date Magnets Our Save the dates came out beautiful. The colors were nice, bright and exactly what we were looking for. The only reason why i didn't give the quality a higher rating is because we used good quality professional image and still one of the pictures came out a little blurry. Other then that our save the dates came out great. We've gotten plenty of compliments.
Amazing quality!
Photo Tradition Save the Date Magnets Everyone loved our magnet save the dates and so did we! They were easy and great quality! Highly recommended!
Love it!
Photo Tradition Save the Date Magnets I choose this design because of the uniqueness. The quality is excellent and I was able to personalize it anyway I wanted. I wish the 3 smaller size pictures where just a little bigger but overall I'm very happy with the quality and product.

Faber Finds £15
Paperback review: Battling for News - Women Reporters from the Risorgimento to Tiananmen Square, By Anne Sebba
Sunday 12 May 2013
Faber is to be applauded for re-releasing this superb 1994 history of women reporters through its Faber Finds series (although one might wish for a more attractive cover, or a more competitive e-book price), with Sebba's new preface, highlighting particularly the appalling case of Lara Logan, sexually assaulted by a crowd while covering the uprising in Cairo.
Sebba's history of women reporting abroad is a more positive one, though, tracing the careers of journalistic stars including Martha Gellhorn and Rebecca West, as well as the less well-known but no less heroic Clare Hollingworth (who used her smaller size to good effect to help squeeze through a crowd to a much-needed phone box), and Peggy Hull, the only woman to "approach professional recognition" during the First World War, when female reporters were not allowed accreditation.

Combat Avaritia Fastpitch Softball Bat -11
|Eligible for Free Shipping on Orders $49 or More! (see promotion details)
|Members of The League get 5% back when you spend $100! (see promotion details)
Product Details
You'll step up and swing with confidence thanks to the Combat® AVARFP4 Avaritia -11 fastpitch softball bat. Its design is focused around Handle Isolation technology, which utilizes polymeric visco-elastic dampeners to isolate the lightweight handle from the high-performance double-wall barrel. This material stiffens under the load, so the barrel responds quickly to your swing, then softens to absorb vibration.
Key Specs:
- Barrel Size: 2¼" Barrel
- ASA Standard: Yes
- Meets 1.20 BPF: Yes
- USSSA Approved: Yes
Additional Info
- Nanocomp Technology Inside: Fills all microscopic gaps between fibers with a tough liquid resin that dramatically increases both bat strength and durability
- Anisotropic Composite Technology: Varies stiffness along the handle and across the barrel, reducing vibrations and sting for a softer feel and improved bat performance
- Blended Fiber Technology: Several different types of fiber, including carbon and glass, are blended to deliver optimum flex and trampoline effect
- Variable Stiffness Technology: Lower barrel stiffness enlarges the traditional sweet spot, so you can hit farther
- Precision Molding Technology: Computerized steel tooling is used to control bat barrel diameters to maximize wall thickness
- Separation Barrier Technology: Lets your brand-new bat exhibit maximum performance right out of the wrapper
- Handle Isolation Technology: Eliminates high-frequency vibrations before they reach your hands
- End cap is also hologram coded and tamper proof
- Ultra-thin, perforated, cushioned grip helps dampen vibration
- Also approved for play in ISA®, NSA® and ISF®

So yeah - the Spurs are a dynasty...they do it the right way...they are the most overlooked team in NBA history...blah, blah, blah. Now that the Heat has delivered on the promise to be the team to beat, following the decision, how can you not kinda want it to continue?
It was great to see them lose to the Mavs in the finals that first year, because we like it when good wins over evil, and the calculated manipulation of the unbelievably flawed NBA system exercised by James, LeBron, and Bosh was the personification of all that is wrong in the Association. But since then, two-straight titles - aren't we over it? I know I am. Now that we're here, I want to see history. I want more. I want not 2, not 3, not 4 (you know the quote)...I want 2...3...4...consecutively.
Go Heat!

UNDATED (WKZO) – Guns have been the focus of political scene lately, but not for lack of cause. Nationwide, gun sales have been on the rise for the past five years seeing large spikes in 2008 and 2012. The New Year, however,may be on its way to shatter all records over the past 14 years.
"The shelves are empty," says Lenden Eakin, "the ammunition doesn't stay in the store." As a Class 3 weapons dealer, Eakin notes the skyrocketing demand for firearms across the country has been overwhelming for stores.
Eakin spoke with Michael Patrick Shiels on Michigan's Big Show Tuesday, to talk about the state of the nation in regards to second amendment rights. "It's because of proposed legislation that people are scared," Eakin explained, "they do not want the right to protect themselves taken away." Watch above for the full interview with Lenden Eakin.
Eakin is referring to legislation that will be introduced next month by Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein. Feinstein announced the bill will halt production of assault weapons and ban them completely from use. The senator said Sunday in an interview with NBC that she believes President Obama will support the legislation and sign it into law.
Michigan support for new gun laws is gaining ground as Lansing Mayor Virg Bernero and Flint Mayor Dayne Walling announced Monday in a press conference they will support a "common-sense" approach to gun control measures. Both Mayors have also joined the Mayors Against Illegal Guns group.
In opposition to hasty gun control actions, numerous elected officials and law enforcement officers have begun their own campaigns, with some vowing to go to war before giving up their right to legally bear arms.
Representative Steve Stockman, a Republican from Texas, says he's willing to call for articles of mpeachment if the president uses executive order to instate gun control measures. Stockman says the use of executive order on the second amendment is "an infringement on our constitutionally-protected rights."
The Obama administration is expected to address plans for gun control litigation in a statement to be released this week.

Dungeons & Dragons Co-creator Arneson Dead at 61Dave Arneson, co-creator of the first commercial roleplaying game, Dungeons & Dragons, lost a battle with cancer on Tuesday. Arneson was 61.
A fan of table-top wargames, Arneson began designing his own gaming scenarios from an early age. In 1969 he met fellow D&D co-creator Gary Gygax at the second official Gen Con gaming convention. Collaboration between the two would eventually see the first release of Dungeons & Dragons in 1974.
Dungeons & Dragons established the traditional RPG form, with concepts such as "leveling," "parties" and others all owing their lineage from the game and directly influencing countless computer games.
Arneson joined Tactical Studies Rules (TSR), founded by Gygax and partners Brian Blume and Lorraine Williams, in 1976. After enjoying a period of unexpected success with D&D, Arneson left the company in 1979, filing suit against TSR over crediting and royalty disputes. The legal disputes were settled out of court in 1981.
Though the legal battles caused friction between Arneson and Gygax, the two were reported to be on good terms at the time of Gygax's death last year.
Following his departure from TSR, Arneson went on to found 4D Interactive Systems, a computer company that is still in operation today. He also taught at Full Sail University as a professor of computer game design until 2008.
Arneson is survived by his wife and daughter. An email to Grognardia from Arneson's family contains information on where to send condolences.

First Crysis 2 Screenshots ReleasedTime to upgrade, folks. Crytek has released the first official screenshots for its upcoming FPS Crysis 2, which uses the new CryENGINE 3. They look really, really good.
The game will be released for the PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 later this year. I'm guessing these shots are from the PC version, though.

Sharyn and Doug Chapman
Doug Chapman is a product of the school of hard knocks. Originally from Toronto, he migrated to Chicago in his youth in pursuit of the American dream. In a story straight out of a Hollywood movie, Doug started at the bottom and, 40 years later, retired as a corporate executive at the pinnacle of his industry.
Residing in Sarasota at least seasonally since the 1980s, Doug has served two terms on Ringling College's board of trustees, and has been a donor to Ringling for three decades. Over the years, Doug and his wife, Sharyn, have given more than $400,000 to Ringling College—not only as cash gifts, but also through creative methods like donating their personal golf cart to the college.
An artist and a student, Sharyn has thrived under the tutelage of Ringling College fine arts instructor Jeff Schwartz. "Jeff is an extraordinary teacher," Sharyn offers. "He reaches into your soul and pulls out what is worthy of expression."
Zwahyma Adrover can attest to the refreshing, if not revolutionary, approach to educational delivery found at Ringling College. A sophomore illustration major from Miami, Zwahyma is one of the beneficiaries of the Chapmans' generosity. "It is nearly impossible for me to articulate what it means to be a Chapman Scholar," she says. "I get too emotional. My parents are very hard-working immigrants from Spain with modest means. If it weren't for the Chapmans, I would not be here pursuing my dream."
"We derive so much satisfaction out of our relationship with Ringling College," says Sharyn. "Doug and I feel it would be selfish of us if we didn't return the favor for the benefit of others."
And thus the American dream is passed to the next generation.
For more information on how you can have a similar impact, and establish such a legacy, contact the office of development at email@example.com or 941-359-7674.

This is just a wonderful facility. The employees and manager are very nice, professional and a pleasure to work with. This is my second time storing at this location and each time has been an easy, smooth, informative transaction.Chelsey from Barrington, RI

February 26, 2014
My move-in experience was extremely pleasant. In addition to being able to use their free moving truck service, I can't tell you how useful it was to have dollies (rolling hand carts) available at the facility to transport boxes from the elevator to my storage unit. It significantly reduced my trips back & forth. I can't tell you just how much I appreciate it--it really is the small things that count. Thanks!Floreena from Cumberland, RI

I had issues with Bobs 2 winters ago . No one shoveled . or threw down salt . My daughter and I were going to our unit. She fell twice because it was icy ( I am sure its on video ) no one was around to help us our lock froze too. No one cared I did complain but was told It was the weathers fault.

I love this stuff! I've been taking apple cider vinegar for about a year now. I never have heartburn or indigestion. There are so many health benefits by taking it! It's inexpensive and you can find it at most grocery stores in the health food section. I always buy the raw, unfiltered kind, that way you get the maximun benefits! The raw, unfiltered kind contains the raw enzymes and stomach friendly bacteria which promotes healing. Clear vinegar is processed and doesn't have any of the benefits of raw ACV. I take about 2 teaspoons in a glass of water every morning. If you can't stand the taste, you can always mix it with apple juice instead of water or add a little lemon to the water.
Here's the 5 Health Benefits:
1. It can cure hiccups. When you get a case of those pesky hiccups, just take a teaspoon of ACV and it should instantly cure the hiccups.
2. It prevents indigestion. If you know you are going to be eating something that doesn't agree with you, try this old remedy: add 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar and 1 teaspoon of honey to 1 cup of warm water. Drink about 30 minutes before meal time.
3. Gets rid of bad breath. Since it has acidic properties, it makes a wonderful remedy for bad breath or halitosis. Just add 1/2 teaspoon into a cup of water and gargle for about 10 seconds at a time until the cup is empty. It also whitens teeth!
4. Helps control blood sugars. ACV helps to improve insulin sensitivity, which is needed to maintain the sugar levels of blood. Mix 1 teaspoon in a glass of water and take 3 times a day to steady your stomach's rate of digestion, which will keep blood sugar levels more consistent.
5. Lowers cholesterol and blood pressure. The potassium and other substances makes the blood thinner and is helpful in controlling blood pressure. The fiber absorbs fats and cholesterol by expelling them from the body as waste materials.
Oh yeah, let's not forget that it is great for dyeing Easter eggs too!!! Those are just a few of the many health benefits from Apple Cider Vinegar. Go get a bottle today!

Let us pray…
Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

Food For Thought
"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."

In addition to reviewing print and online media, Media Matters monitors at least 150 hours of television and radio each week. This section features highlights (or low-lights) from our monitoring efforts, other noteworthy clips as well as original videos.
Right-wing media accused President Obama of "advising" and "strategizing" for the terrorist group known as the Islamic State (ISIS or ISIL) in reaction to reports that Obama said the group had made a strategic error in provoking support for U.S. military action against them.
Fox News' coverage of an evidence-free "bombshell" from Benghazi hoaxster Sharyl Attkisson took just hours to morph from a reiteration of her claim that a disgruntled former State Department employee "couldn't help but wonder" if Hillary Clinton's staff had turned over "scrubbed" Benghazi documents to investigators into full-blown allegations that documents had been "destroyed" -- allegations that remain baseless.

Content Description +/-
MS 117 contains papers relating to Laurence J. Burton's college education and to his career prior to his election as Representative from Utah's First Congressional District in 1962. Though covering only a relatively short period of time, 1951-1961, the material offers pertinent information on the events and circumstances which directed Burton into national politics. Box 1: A miscellany of examinations, lecture notes and research papers from Burton's undergraduate and graduate studies during the period 1949-1959. Through this decade of studies, one can see the development of the future congressman's interest in and understanding of national politics and international ideologies. Box 2: Papers relating to Burton's work as Director of Public Relations at Weber College (1951-1957), and as editor of the "JUCO Review," the magazine of the National Junior College Athletic Association (1951-1961). The bulk of the material relates to the latter endeavor and offers insight into the 1 D.C.. In Addition, this box contains a small amount of material related to his work as an Administrative Assistant to Governor George Dewey Clyde (1960-1962). For the most part, the latter is composed of publications relating to Federal aid to education and Utah's tax system. Box 4: An assemblage of personal memorabilia and sundry publications relating to a variety of subjects and personal interest. Also included in this box are the financial records for the construction of Burton's house at 4170 Edgehill Drive in Ogden. All material in this collection is arranged in chronological order.

HOWELL, Mich. (WJBK) -- 43-year-old Raulie Casteel, the suspected I-96 shooter, is now charged with terrorism. He is accused of shooting at 24 people, mostly drivers, injuring one.
Casteel pled not guilty to the charge when he was arraigned on Thursday.
The crimes spanned four counties. The attorney general is handling the cases that happened in Ingham, Livingston and Shiawassee counties. Oakland County is prosecuting its cases separately.
If Casteel is convicted of terrorism, he could spend the rest of his life in prison. It's a charge that's rarely used.
Major Joel Maatman with the Ingham County Sherrif's Office worked on the task force that captured Casteel. He said he saw the terror firsthand.
"This case put a lot of people on edge throughout the state. I mean, when it was happening we were getting constant calls, I'm sure all law enforcement [was], is it safe to drive on 96?"
Casteel's family and attorney left court without saying a word, but people throughout Michigan are hoping that in the end the verdict will speak for itself.
"This is probably an easier charge to prove than just the... run of the mill attempted murder. Terrorism here is right," said Fox 2 legal analyst Charlie Langton.
