How often do you pull a box of frozen chicken nuggets from the freezer for lunch or dinner? Once a week? Twice? If your kid really loves them, I'd wager it might be even more than that. I get it. Chicken nuggets are convenient and kids will eat them. But what ingredients make up your favorite brand? Are they made from things you want your little ones eating?
These are unbelievably easy chicken nuggets are to make, absolutely delicious and made from ingredients you can pronounce. The best part is that you can make a huge batch and keep them in the freezer for future meals, so not only do they save on the expense of boxed nuggets but also the time it takes to go to the grocery to buy them.
Last week we made these on Facebook Live, I demoed how to freeze them on sheet pans and then pop them in zipper bags (before baking). All you need to do is follow the baking directions below so that you can bake off the amount you need instead of the entire recipe.
Crispy on the outside, tender inside, freshly made easy chicken nuggets your kids will beg for everyday. What could be more simple, economical, nutritious and yummy than that?
Question to Weelicious: In you book the recipe calls for mashed potatos vs. oats. Why did you substitute this? What is the benefit?
My "kids" are in their 20's, but good memories of play dates with other kids/moms over those nostalgic nuggets! Can't wait to try these, can one use already ground low fat chicken and get the same results?
The kids loved them:)
Thank you!
I only have old fashioned oats, no quick cooking. Is this ok?
What can I use in place of Parmesan cheese? Maybe Nutritional yeast or crumbed almonds?
Oops,…… I scrolled down the comments and saw that there is such a thing as gluten free Panko! I didn't know there is such a thing, I will have to look for it.
My husband has to be gluten free, and he loves chicken nuggets right along with the kids. I only serve gluten free so I don't run the risk of cross contamination, or him accidentally getting 'glutened'. I know Panko make the chicken nuggets extra crispy, but do you happen to know of another alternative? Could you please advise? Thank you, I love your site and your recipes!
Is there any reason one can't just cut up the chicken into small pieces and roll into the crispy coating? RAther than pureeing it all and forming the nuggets? A little beaten egg or milk to adhere the coating to the chicken? Putting the chicken into the food processor just sounds like a big mess to me, plus the extra step of cleaning it all up….
Do you use raw or cooked chicken breasts?
Love!!!, it was a complete hit! My three boys devoured it which is amazing as they (5, 2, and 1) never agree something is edible at the same time lol. My husband even wants to take it to work to share with a coworker. I love that these are freezable! Can't wait to see more easy, healthy and freezable meals!

The recipe says to freeze the nuggets raw but I think i just read a comment where you said to cook and then freeze. Might have misread the comment but which do you recommend?
They were really good. I left out the oats, added an egg, and upped the seasonings a bit. Everyone loved them! Thanks for being awesome!
I'm making these for the 1st time right now (they're in the oven) and I think I way over processed them! It was like chicken pâté. We'll see.

I make these for my kiddies all the time. Love them and so easy. I have made them with ground chicken to skip the food processor step and have added veggies as well. Thanks for another great recipe!!
I made the nuggets today but used the mashed potatoes you talked about in the video. I LOVE THEM !!!! I hope tiny will as well. I gave her a bite and she are them so well see at dinner time if she will continue. Thanks so much !!!!!
Wow! These are super easy and with out all of that extra stuff like msg…my kids love chicken nuggets,I'm looking forward to make it for them. Btw my sister told my about your website, she cooks a lot from your recipes.
Oh my goodness. These are good! My almost two year old loves them. I make the mashed potato version. Also, I've found that if you crank the oven to 450 they cook much faster and get a lot crunchier!

I made these without the oats and they were good. The second time I made them with the mashed potatoes and they were so incredibly soft and moist. Thank you for the recipe.
We just made these for the first time! My kids are loving them. Im on the fence. I think i over cooked just a tad, as they are dry. but they are also a little bland. i think next time ill double up on seasonings.
I boil 1/4 head of cauliflower in vegetable stock, blend and add to this recipe. They are always moist even when hubby clearly OVER cooks them. Plus the flavour from the veg stock reduces the need for more seasoning, although I do add parmesan to the chicken mixture as well. Or you could try the mashed potato idea. Would work same to keep them moist. I just use the cauliflower to add nutrition as my little guy only eats a few veggies.
Do these come out ok if frozen and reheated? If so, how long would you recommend they be kept frozen?
I want to inquire about using raw or cooked chicken in the food processor, I have a friend who cooks a great deal and she says that putting raw chicken in the food processor with other ingredients can contaminate the food? Comments? I am a novice cook even at my Grama years.
Hello! I know this is silly, but I do not have a food processor. Is it even possible to use a blender with this recipe? Or should I go buy a food processor? Is it worth it?
I was so excited to make these, wish I had looked at the comments first. These turned out really dry and hard. My 21 month rejected
Heya i'm for the first time here. I came across this board and I in fidning It really useful & it helped me out a lot. I hope to provide one thing back and aid others like you aided me.
I just made these for the second time. So yummy! I actually was able to shape them using a star cookie cuter to mimic a certain fast food nugget (=
Could you make the salmon nuggets this way?
Pingback: Round Two: The food saga continues | The Neurotic Optimist
This recipe is GREAT! I wanted to try the version in the book but I didn't have mashed potatoes so I'm glad I came to the website and found this. My very picky daughter is eating them as I type this. It's so helpful that you include the freezer directions because I made a double batch. I used quality organic chicken so it really makes me wonder how companies are able to sell those huge bags of frozen chicken nuggets for only a few dollars. I'm sure they don't use only quality ingredients.
Omg! Best recipe for kids! My whole family if picky waters loves these !
Chicken nuggets
I noticed the video recipe uses mashed potatoes but the written recipe mentions oats. Are the mashed potatoes as substitute for the oats? Does one work better than the other?
Pingback: Toddler Food: Protein | Chasing Teal
I added thighs & a couple of livers – and cut out the oatmeal, because I was concerned they would be too dry. They were really good.
I made a double recipe with the following changes and they were delicious! 1 lb of each of boneless skinless organic chicken breasts and thighs, blended with all ingredients except oats (completely ommitted) in food processor. Rolled in regular breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese and baked as instructed. I sprayed the tops of the nuggets with Pam cooking spray and they were amazing! 56% cheaper than store organic nuggets! Thank you!
Can I cook these and then freeze them?
This may sound silly but do ou cook the chicken before starting or do you use raw chicken in the food processor?
Just made these today and they were so easy! I put everything in my Vitamix and ground it all up. I agree that they were a little dry. I should have added the egg like others have suggested. But they look perfect (definitely put them under the broiler. Otherwise they're white and look odd) and taste terrific. I'm dunking them in BBQ sauce as we speak!
I can't wait to learn more!
Sounds great, I wold love to learn more recipes good for my little boy!!
Can you make these with ground beef? Looking for more ways to get iron in my baby
Made these last night to have for lunches this week, but couldn't resist taste-testing a few! Delicious! I can see what other people mean about them being on the drier side, especially for little ones, but where it's just my husband and I that doesn't concern me much. These are super flavorful and easy ~ planning to make a big batch to freeze so I have them on hand for last-minute dinners.
Side note — yes, it's just my husband and I. No kiddos (yet) in our house, and yet several Weelicious recipes are in regular rotation here! Thanks, Catherine, for coming up with kid-friendly recipes that aren't just for kids.
Thank you for posting this recipe. I have tried this recipe for my 22 month old toddler (20 month old at the time I made them). They were very good, however, they were a little dry and lacking moisture that would make them 'soft' /tender enough for my toddler to bite on them. My husband tried them and he really liked them and thought they were a little dry but he really liked the flavor. I really want to try and make them again but before I do I want to correct what may have went wrong. I followed the recipe exactly with the specified ingredients and baked them at the suggested time. I did some research on the internet and found out that one could marinate them in low fat buttermilk overnight. But if one is to place the chicken in a food processor; wouldn't that defeat the purpose of marinating them? I wanted to ask you if you could kindly give me some suggestions on moisture and make them tender enough were my toddler could easily bite and chew the nuggets. I hope I do not come across as confusing, but, sincerely, overall they were really good and I have not come across other recipes that tops this one. thanks again.
I just made these tonight and I cut back on the oats a tiny bit and added an egg to the chicken mixture. I also used crushed corn flakes for the breading instead of panko (it's what I had) and they turned out wonderful. I actually only cooked for 14 minutes also (they were definitely fully cooked at 14 min). My 13 month old that only has his top and bottom two front teeth ate them well after I broke them up a tiny bit. I think the egg and a little less oats helped them because I tasted them and thought they were moist. Delicious recipe! I love that you can freeze them!
So here's a funny thing. I just looked back at this recipe and realized that after the first time I made them I've completely left the oats out every time and they're even better! Without the oats, and without the egg they stay together just fine and they taste great. I've even started sneaking veggies in (minced carrots and zucchini) because my little one has decided he doesn't want to eat his veggies. Wonderful.
Amanda- Thank you so much for your response. I am definitely going to try the recipe out again because of your advice. I will let you know how they turned out.

Ps. I just found your website today & there are so many recipes I can't wait to try for my 1 yr old!
Fantastic recipes
I don't have a real food processor, just a mini one. So I was concerned it wouldn't grind the chicken good. But it did. The best part is, the kids liked them!! Hooray, no more store bought nuggets for us! The only thing I'm going to change for next time is to try grinding up the panko a bit. They didn't like the "chunks" of crust.
I tried these tonight but they didn't turn out well, too dense. Disappointing! I added an egg as someone had suggested because I was worried they would be dry. But I was wondering if you can overprocess the chicken in the food processor – could that have been what I did wrong? Next time, I think I'll just cut up the chicken into chunks and rub them in the spice/panko/parmesan mixture instead of using the food processor at all, see how that tastes.
Pingback: In Memory: Easy Chicken Nuggets! « Daddy's Tractor
Awesome recipe! I bought ground chicken and then used my blender(don't have a food processor). I also added a small amount of mashed up carrots so they'd be moist.
why chop and then shape into a "nugget"?
how about cutting chicken into bite size nuggets?
I use whole wheat panko, its naturally golden in color and a little more healthy! Thank you for all your awesome recipes!
Pingback: Catherine McCord's Keys To The Kitchen | Aida Mollenkamp
Hi I made these and they tasted great but they came out a little dry and got even harder to eat after they got cold. No trouble for me to eat but more difficult for my little one. Any suggestions on how to make them more moist? perhaps add an egg?
Try grating a small bit of onion with its juice, its suppose to keep meat moist.
i had the same issue with the dryness. they were good and our two year old loved them; however, they were a little tough. have you had any luck tweaking the recipe a bit? i believe i stuck fairly close to cooking 15 minutes. i forgot to put the timer on (oops!) our oven is brand new, too. maybe it's a bit hotter. i could try cooking for less time…
When I finally found the time to make these, they were super easy and my normally picky children both ate their fair share of chicken. I used organic ground chicken and some basil and oregano and mixed it by hand. I'll have to try the food processor next time to see if there's any difference.
We did this with ground chicken form the butcher and also chicken breast in the food processor at home. Everyone chowed down the food processor version, but not the pre ground. It was much too dense. I highly recommend taking the time with the food processor. It really made a difference!
Thank you! My children absolutely love this recipe. Do you think this recipe would also work with fish?
Made theses tonight the flavor is incredible!! I had a problem the Pablo bread crumbs would not brown the the oven and I way way way over cooked them because I was waiting for them to brown. Is there a better way to get brown color on them??? Thanks! Love ALL the recipes here!!

Wanted to know if there were any other substitutes for the parmesan? Unfortunately, I dont like the taste of the non dairy cheeses. Wasnt sure if there wld be anything to help it bind without the cheese. Thank u!
Would it work to bake these and then freeze them for later? Then defrost them when ready to eat?
Thank you for such an easy and delicious recipe!
I made it tonight and both the kids loved it.
Out goes the store bought ones.. IN come's these weelicious nuggets.
These were so easy! I scooped the chicken mix out of the bowl with a cookie scoop (which got me thinking), so after I pressed them in the panko & parm and flattened them out a bit, I cut them into shapes with small cookie cutters! Super cute!
These are so great! I just made a batch for my kids (3yo and 15mo). They both gobbled them up. I got a nice big batch from 1.5 lbs of chicken. The best part was that it only took me an hour to make them. This recipes a keeper for sure!
Thank you for a great recipe!! As a pregnant lady craving the evil nuggets of McDonald's (yes, I have seen the pink ooze chicken parts picture going around…) these have been wonderful to have on hand. I liked them so much that my mom and I experimented with hiding veggies in them for my super-picky nephew and it was a smashing success! We decided on cauliflower for the color and it's ability to blend with other food items. We separately processed about 1/3 to 1/2 of a head raw (minus the larger stalk), added it to the mixture, processed it a little more and it was great. As an added bonus, the cauliflower seems to stretch the number of nuggets out more, so we typically get anywhere from 35-45 nuggets per batch. Again, thanks for the recipes – I look forward to trying them out on my own little bean who arrives this October
Thank you so much for posting this!! I was just thinking today the "stuff" that is in chicken nuggets and how I wish my kids would like real chicken nuggets I can make but they don't. This sounds perfect!!! I'm super stoked to try these! Again, thank you!!
Thank you.. I have another question plz
My son is still 14 months, lots of these recipes here are great but not yet for him, do u have a special category for younger toddlers??
Here are recipes that are good for 10 months and older: http://b12.ba4.myftpupload.com/category/recipes-10-12-months/
And here are recipes that are appropriate for toddlers! http://b12.ba4.myftpupload.com/category/toddler-bites/
Wow, That is the best nuggets I've ever tasted… I didn't add onion powder or oats because they weren't available here. I also used grated cheddar but the result was perfect. So easy recipe.. I also added a zucchini to the mixture to get my baby eat it.
I totally love it so much, thank you million times.
I just have one question. I didn't understand how to freeze them. Should I do it after quoting with crumbs or before that step
Freeze after coating in bread crumbs!
Also "disgusting" is just a rude word to use about someone's recipe, regardless of what precedes it.
Elizabeth, I thought the same thing! I have to cook steel cut oats OVER NIGHT in order for them to cook properly, lol. I'm going to try this recipe for the first time today but I have to use instant oats because it's all I've got…hopefully it'll work out.
Catherine commented on this earlier… she said instant oats will cook too quickly and will become mushy. Better make a run to the grocery store!
Btw I'm excited to try this recipe!
Fantastic! So similar to fast food yet so different. I'm going to make a double batch tomorrow. Thanks again for the great recipe.
I am still chuckling that there seems to be confusion between steel cut and 5 minute oats. Not being mean, but come on!
These were wonderful! I made a few changes. We used chicken thighs instead of breasts (took a little longer to cook, but that's okay.) I used finely minced onion instead of onion powder (didn't have any!) I didn't have any parsley so I added some fresh basil and tossed in some cayenne pepper (yes, my 18 month old likes spicy!) Used seasoned bread crumbs instead of panko (didn't have any panko in the cabinet like I thought!) Omitted the salt. Great taste and texture! So they were great! A real keeper. Thanks!
Just wanted you to know this was my first Weelicious recipe to try and it came out excellent! Yea!
My family, including my 12 month old, loved this recipe!! Will definitely make again!
I`ve tried this recipe and i`m really impressed, it has a very good taste. My both child tried it and they like it a lot. Thanks a lot for sharing.
I tried the suggestion to toast the panko (before putting it on the chicken) at 250 and even after 10 minutes it wasn't browning at all. It did brown up under the broiler, but then all the browned panko fell off when we picked them up to eat.
The panko was a little rough on the mouth, too crunch for me, though that also could be due to my attempts at browning it. My 2 yr old chowed down 4 whole nuggets.
I also thought a small ice cream scoop would have been handy to keep a hand clean instead of hand-rolling them. You could release a scoop of it into the panko, cover with panko then gently press down into a nugget shape.
I like to also add veggie puree to the mix since my 13 month old is not liking veggies right now. I'll even make some nuggets that are ONLY veggies- spinach, carrots, brocc, celery, potato, etc.
Hey another me!
anyway I will have to try the veggie one! do you use raw veggies?
Ohmygoodness! I have been hoping to find a recipe like this. I had brain stormed ideas but I'm not much of an experienced cook and was too afraid to test my own recipe. I cannot wait to try this. I feel too guilty feeding my son the store bought chicken nuggets.
I was just wondering if canned tuna could be used? We are catholic so no meat on fridays during lent. I am just not sure how to reduce the amounts of the other ingredients for a 5 oz can of tuna lol. I am Math incompetent hehe.
Interesting idea! 1 pound is 16 ounces, so you could either cut this recipe into thirds, or use three cans of tuna! I'm not sure how it will come out, though. The tuna probably won't hold together as well as the chicken does, and it might get dried out after cooking. Please let me know your results if you do try it! I'm intrigued!
I ended up using 2 cans of tuna and eyeballed the oats and it came out fantastic even my 1 year old ate them right up with a little mustard on them (as I cannot stand tartar sauc e) yes mustard on tuna nuggets like these is quite good surprisingly.
forgot to mention don't drain the tuna all the way (drain partially if that makes any sense) the liquid will keep it moist
Can you do this with chicken thighs? My little guy needs the iron where he can get it! Thanks!
Yes, you can do this with any ground chicken meat, dark or light!
Finally got my 17 month old to eat chicken! Thank you!
They were easy enough for the husband to make (I'm a vegetarian). They didn't brown well, but neither the husband nor son seemed to care.
I made these this weekend; they looked so good I had to sneak a taste when they came out of the oven and they were delicious!
Add another super-easy, delicious weelicious recipe to my regular rotation. Thank you Catherine!!
No eggs!! I love you, and so do my egg allergic kids!
no offense but these were disgusting.
I made them this weekend and the nuggets came out really hard and were just gross to eat.
Oh no! If they were hard your oven may run hotter than mine. Try cooking them for less time! Was it just the fact that they were hard (probably overcooked) or was there anything about the flavor you didn't like?
I don't think I over-cooked them… but I did use steel oats instead of Old Fashioned Oats like your recipe said (I just happened to have steel oats in the pantry). Maybe THAT made the difference?
Steel cut oats are quite different than old fashioned oats and would definitely change the consistency!
I made these tonight and they were FABULOUS and devoured by my 5yr old. Thanks for a quick easy recipe.
I am looking forward to trying this recipe. I was wondering if it is a problem to use quick oats, instead of the 5 minute oats indicated in the recipe? I thought quick oats were suppose to cook in 2 minutes, but I am not sure.
Yes, quick oats cook faster and could get mushy in this recipe, so I would stick with the 5 minute oats!
Could a good blender work in place of a food processor? I am not that wise with kitchen appliances… Also, could you just use regular bread crumbs instead of Panko? The last few recipes I tried with Panko, dd didn't love so much? Wondering if it was coincidence or the Panko!
The raw chicken might get stuck under the blade in a regular blender, so for this recipe a food processor is better, but you could also use ground chicken or ask the butcher counter at your local grocery to grind the chicken for you. Regular bread crumbs will produce a different consistency coating, and I love the texture and flakiness of Panko! Use whatever you have and are comfortable with!
What a great recipe! This sounds like the Big-M recipe. I like this because when my Granddaughter only wants two nuggets I can prepare them quicker than I can run to the Big-M, and save money! Thank you!
Catherine, I dont have a cooling rack to use. Can i use a reg cooking sheet?
You can, but flip them half way through to ensure even cooking!
Made these for lunch today and they were a big hit. I really enjoyed them too! Just wondering, if freezing some for later, when I go to cook them do I need to thaw them first or cook them longer?
Cook them two minutes longer.
What dipping sauce do you use?
I served these with ketchup and mustard!
Thank you so much for this recipe! I have tried so many recipes and never thought to put the chicken in the food processor. I can say good bye to store bought nuggets for good!
Oops in my excitement I forgot to add that my 3 yr old LOVES these!
These were a HUGE hit with EVERYONE! Even my picky 2 yr old! I served with sweet potato oven fries and it was a well rounded healthy meal.
I can't wait to try this. My first two kids are great eaters, but my 18 month old is incredibly picky. He's so bad that we practically threw a party a few days ago when he ate the apple slices I put on his tray instead of throwing it all on the floor. Fingers crossed he'll eat these nuggets, it will be his first time eating chicken in months!

Do you freeze the nuggets once they have been baked, or are they unbaked? And how long for re -heating once frozen?
I'm thinking about incorporating veggies to these nuggets like grated zucchini maybe….hopefully it won't make them too wet..will report back
Thank you for this recipe!!! I made it tonight, and it is a huge hit. They don't like chicken nuggets from restaraunts or frozen, so I was skeptical, but they are devouring these! And I love the taste. I only had breadcrumbs on hand (and oddly no parm), but they are great. Will make huge batch for freezing next time.
Do I need to cook them before I freeze them? OR just freeze them raw and coated?
2 questions:
1) Can I skip the parmesan to make it dairy free?
2) Are we supposed to cook them on the cooling rack? I never knew if mine was oven safe?
You can leave out the parmesan, I just love the flavor! Yes, cook them on the cooling rack, it helps them cook and brown evenly. If it is stainless steel it should be oven safe.
how about ground turkey? would that work? This sounds like a recipe we definitely have to try!
Yes it would work!
Here's a tip for easier browning. I always toast the panko crumbs before I use them. They don't brown well when I've used them for breading, but when toasted beforehand (250 degrees for about 5 minutes or so, just WATCH them) they look much more appetizing, no broiling required.
I just made these and they turned out great! Thanks for posting. I did toast my panko in a pan beforehand to get a nice brown color. Also I had to cook these for about 25 minutes to get them up to temperature.
Thanks again! Can't wait for my little man to taste these tonight!
Oh I love these!! Making these tonight for my little one. Love, love, love your recipes…so many great ideas
If I freeze these, do I need to thaw them before baking or can I just put them in the oven still frozen?
You can put them in the oven froze, and add 2 minutes or so to the cooking time!
I never thought to grind up the chicken before. I usually do all this with just chicken cut into strips then freeze them. Hmm….kids might like this better, more like the fast food junk!! LOL.
I had the same question about ground chicken – would that work as well?
I've made baked chicken katsu in the past and to get the "golden" color, brown/toast the panko in the oven (or frying pan without oil) before coating the meat.
Thank you for this wonderful recipe Katherine!
Cant wait to make these!..would it also work with the packaged already ground chicken?
Yes, pre-ground chicken works beautifully, and then there is no need to throw it in the food processor!
Does anyone have a recommendation for a food processor? I think it's time to buy one!
This is my food processor. I love it! http://astore.amazon.com/weelicious-20/detail/B001413A0Q
Thank you for the recommendation! It can be tough picking out appliances so recommendations are the way to go for me!
Maybe buying fresh ground chicken as a substitute for the chicken breast that will be processed anyway. However, the oats may leave a chunkier consistency because it won't be processed as well. It's certainly worth a try.
I have a Hamilton Beach 70670. It's a pretty basic, middle-of-the-road one (about $45 on Amazon), but it's been great. Does everything I need, and I make a TON of weelicious recipes!
Oh wow! I gotta try this…most homemade nugget recipes include an egg coating so this is a must try since we have egg allergies. Now I just need a food processor…
see the answer to my question above
any way to make these if you don't have a food processor?
We just have our local meat market cut the chicken breasts into "nugget" sized pieces. He is very educated and against using ground chicken because of the texture once it has been cooked. Our girls love our version of gluten-free chicken nuggets and the chicken becomes tender enough that even a little one can chew.
You can use ground turkey and it works great too – we tried it (our first weelicious recipe to try) and they came out AMAZING!
You can buy ground chicken, or ask at the butcher counter of your local grocery to grind it for you!
If you don't want to process the chicken, mix the spices in with the crumb and follow the same steps. My three don't like the texture of the chicken once it's been processed and it removes a step and clean up for me.
I love the spice mix, thanks for a new flavor. Cheers.
We're a veggie family so if I wanted to make tofu (or seitan) nuggets, would I simply substitue out the protein or would I need egg to hold it together?
I know you mentioned the chicken should be raw and not to cook prior to putting in the processor, but would it make a difference if you did cook chicken first?
If you cook the chicken first it won't hold together with all the other ingredients, and when you go to bake it the chicken will become overcooked and very rubbery.
Good recipe! I love making homemade chicken nuggets and strips and freezing them for quick dinners or lunches! (I love any recipe that I can make double and freeze to have a quick, healthy meal on another day!) I have a similar recipe that I use and love but it doesn't have oatmeal so I will have to give this one a try! Thanks for sharing!!
Wow! Super simple! We turn to nuggets on nights when my guy doesn't like the family dinner. Sometimes I just get tired of making kid friendly food and want parent friendly stuff
Might be a stupid question but should the chicken Breast be cooked prior to puttIng in the food processor?
It should be raw!
I had the same question!
No, do not cook chicken before the processor. 375° F for 15 minutes should be enough time to cook nuggets

Accountant To Play Football For Miami Dolphins http://www.thepostga...-miami-dolphins
Ever since Dan Marino retired, the Miami Dolphins have wasted a lot of money signing top college football players to contracts that never really paid off, so now they've decided to give accountants a try.
In short, the story seems to have been delivered directly from a Hollywood script. Les Brown, an accountant at a private equity investment firm in West Palm Beach, Fla., just signed a contract to play tight end for the Dolphins.
Generally speaking, if you don't play football in college, your chances of signing a professional contract are close to zero, but those are just the kind of odds Brown has defied.
Like many young men, he was a star in baseball, basketball and football while attending high school in Utah. Brown was even recruited to play football at BYU, but he decided basketball would be his sport.
"I didn't have the body to play football. I was a tall, skinny kid who liked to sit outside and shoot threes," Brown told the Salt Lake Tribune.
In the end, Brown chose to play basketball at Westminster College, a small private liberal arts college in Salt Lake City. While playing shooting guard for the Griffins, Brown took an internship at Huntsman Gay Global Capital. The Salt Lake Tribune's Gordon Monson reports that after the company presented him with a full-time job offer, he dropped out of school, and gave up his hoop dreams to work at the firm.
After the company closed the doors on its Salt Lake City offices, Brown was shifted to the West Palm Beach branch. After just seven months, he had enough, deciding to return home to Utah in July of 2011 to finish his degree.
Brown was helping his brother, Braden, an offensive lineman at BYU get ready for the draft when he stumbled across a man who would change his life.
Chad Ikei, a trainer for BYU, became interested in helping Les, offering advice that would lead him to the NFL. "He looked at me and said, 'You've got the rest of your life to work. You could be a great tight end," Brown said. "Chad was persistent, he wanted to take me on as a project."
Eventually Brown quit school again and moved to Hawaii to workout full-time with other NFL hopefuls to get ready for pro scouts. He worked out three times a day, six days a week in a "three-month boot camp."
All that worked was needed, since Brown had to impress cynical NFL scouts at BYU's pro day on March 29. "I was a no-name guy coming out of nowhere. I knew I had to turn some heads," he said.
In short, the results were mind-boggling.
Brown had the best vertical jump (39 inches), broad jump (10 feet, 3 inches), 40-yard time (4.43) of all the football hopefuls attending BYU's pro day.
With his brothers in attendance and overcome with tears, Brown had done enough to receive interest from the Giants, Raiders, Colts, Packers and Dolphins. In the end, he picked the Dolphins' three-year contract offer with a small signing bonus.
"It was an overwhelming feeling for all of us," Les Brown says. "When I quit school, some of my friends thought I was foolish, chasing some kind of high school dream. They thought I had a better shot at hitting the lottery than making the NFL. But I was doing it for me. I'd always wondered, 'What if I had played football?' " "All I wanted was a chance," he says. "When I started on this journey, I never thought this would happen."
Dolphins mini-camp opens on Monday, Brown will be competing with Anthony Fasano, Charles Clay, Jeron Mastrud and Will Yeatman for a spot on Miami's 53-man roster at tight end.

Skip to comments.CBS News' Attkisson Describes Stonewalling From White House on Benghazi
Posted on 05/03/2013 4:23:44 PM PDT by Ernest_at_the_Beach
"Where there's smoke, there's fire." That's the message CBS News reporter Sharyl Attkisson says she gets from the constant evasion, stonewalling and flat-out non-response from the Obama Administration and Sttate Department when she pursues questions about the September 11th attacks on the US consulate in Benghazi.
(Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...
She epitomizes real journalism.
She has been an outstanding journalist on TARP and "Fast and Furious" investigative reports. Having her hot on the case is good news. She is not likely to give up against administration stonewalls!
do we have the permission to add "stinking cesspool" to the sewage. noting that Nancy Pelosi always states time to drain the swamp. Much of DC is a reclaimed land that during the Civil war times was actually swampland that stunk from dead animals and human execrement.
Perhaps May eight will find her starting to get some at least partial answers to her questions.
Since Holder is BeHolden to his afro-King, can Congress ask SCOTUS to intervene? Or maybe the Navy SEALs can get justice for Doherty, Smith, and Woods (Okay, Stevens too)?
She's much more compatible with FOX in presenting truthful substantive journalism.
Drip... drip... drip... drip
Did she really think that she would get anything but lies from the House of Liars?
And she's proved that again and again while working behind enemy lines.
Jake Tapper (at least before CNN- haven't watched him lately) and Sharyl Attkisson are two of the non-Fox people who have given it to Obama. I hope she keeps it up.
Anyone wanting on or off this ping list, please advise.
Wonder who asked her to do such deeds.
Rumer on the street is her contract is up soon with CBS and she may be heading to the blaze tv network.
Thanks Ernest.
Jake is a fraud... look at his twitter posts...not just his mainstream posts.
It's really turning into a tsunami.
Please Lord......
This will not go anywhere.
As I understand it, her contract with CBS is also up for renewal. And CBS is...balking.
The White House is waiting it out till CBS fires her.
What's up with that.?
Its the smile to the face before the knife to the back.

I have been involved in a variety of activities during my years in high school. From playing volleyball and basketball to participating in music, forensics, and drama competitions, my experiences have been extremely rewarding. Working on Student Council for three years also taught me a great deal about working with people. Getting involved in community activities has been very meaningful. I've had the privilege of working with children in my church as well as at the Green River Community Center where I was able to teach them about caring for and riding horses as part of the Reading Program. I also organized a clothing drive for two children's homes: one in Nepal and one in Thailand. My life has been busy and very diverse, but I wouldn't have been able to do any of the things I've done without the support of so many family and friends.

Fenlon's Inevitable Departure Confirmed After Derby Defeat
In the end it had to happen. If Wednesday evening turned into a pre-Halloween horror show for Hibernian supporters, on Friday came the biggest post-Halloween casualty.
In many ways Pat Fenlon was an admirable manager. Throughout his two year tenure at Easter Road, he defended his players to the hilt, answered every question put to him with a straight, if sometimes grumpy, answer, and brought at least a modicum of success in cup competitions.
But it was those very same cups that ended him. Even worse, his departure was directly down to the success of bitter Edinburgh rivals Hearts. Many observers thought his time was up 18 months ago, in the aftermath of a shocking 5-1 Scottish Cup Final capitulation at Hampden to their Tynecastle rivals.
The five time League of Ireland winning boss, though, wasn't exactly alone in Scottish Cup failure in Leith. It's a trophy that has somehow evaded the Easter Road trophy cabinet since 1902. Fenlon at least led Hibs to two Cup Final appearances in a row, the same number of Final appearances they had achieved in the previous 40 years.
When he arrived from Bohemians, Pat had also found Scotland's fifth best supported club in serious relegation trouble in the then Scottish Premier League. But with his infectious enthusiasm for all things football, he ignited some players into fulfilling their potential, with the likes of on loan striker Leigh Griffiths and James McPake shining under his management.
In spite of that, though, there was always a feeling that something wasn't quite there. A hugely encouraging start to 2012/13, where they topped the table for some time, fell away into a bottom half finish. A revenge Cup win over Hearts, and qualification for the Europa League, probably saved his bacon.
Respite was not forthcoming though. After crowd favourite Leigh Griffiths returned to his parent club, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Hibs European dream turned into a nightmare. A 2-0 first leg deficit against experienced campaigners Malmo looked something imminently salvageable. But on a torrid summer's evening at Easter Road, a 7-0 reverse, meant the 9-0 aggregate defeat was the worst result of any Scottish club in European competition.
An opening day Scottish Premiership home defeat to Motherwell precipitated the unthinkable, derby defeat at Tynecastle against a hopelessly understrength and relegation bound Hearts. The knives, and very probably the forks and spoons, were out for Pat Fenlon by now. Except perhaps on Gorgie Road.
The Hibernian directors, however, quietly supported their man, and seemed to be vindicated when Fenlon led the side on a run of just one defeat in nine games. You know you're doing something right when, after a hard fought 1-1 draw with Celtic, Parkhead manager Neil Lennon spends his media time complaining about the opposition rather than taking about his own side.
Defeat at home to high flying Aberdeen, however, brought that run to an abrupt end, and if the Hibees league defeat at the hands of Hearts was almost unbelievable, the reverse at home in the Scottish League Cup quarter final was certainly unbearable. Enough for supporters to protest outside the stadium afterwards. Enough too, it transpires, for the Hibernian board of directors.
So the search starts for their 11th manager in 16 seasons. Whoever the incumbent is, they will have the advantage of being at undeniably one of Scotland's top five clubs. That, however, also goes against whoever comes in, with the weight of history and expectation placed upon their shoulders from day one.
It was something that, in the end, someone as obviously decent a person that Pat Fenlon is, found too much. For him, as well as Hibernian, the future looks about as certain and clear-cut as America found itself on Election Day 2000.
For the sake of the green half of Edinburgh, it may well be prudent to take as much time as the Florida law courts did back then, to find their next boss. For the simple reason that, like any other football club, that they need success.
And, just like a new dawn, it doesn't happen overnight.

By Brad Locke/NEMS Daily Journal
STARKVILLE – Wes Rea promised a more productive Mississippi State offense, and he wasted no time trying to prove it.
Rea's two-run home run in the first inning got the 2013 season off and rolling, and it sparked a 16-1 MSU rout of Portland in front of 3,403 at Dudy Noble Field on Friday.
The No. 5 Bulldogs, who hit just .251 last year, banged out 21 hits, and 10 players had at least one RBI. Mitch Slauter had a career-high four hits, while Adam Frazier and Daryl Norris had three apiece.
C.T. Bradford homered and had three RBIs.
"Everybody wants to get off to a good start," said Rea, who scored three runs. "Of course you want to lead by example and back your words up with example and your on-field play."
Rea's homer came on the first pitch he saw from Portland starter Matt McCallister (0-1), a hanging curveball that the big first baseman launched well over the wall in right-center field.
big inning
After Portland scored in the top of the second, MSU had a seven-run outburst in the bottom half, highlighted by Trey Porter's two-run single.
MSU starter Jacob Lindgren (1-0), a sophomore, tossed six innings of one-run ball, allowing five hits and inducing three double-play balls in the first four innings to escape some early trouble.
"I was just really trying to attack their hitters, let my fielders do work," Lindgren said.
Three State relievers tossed three no-hit innings.
Game 2 is set for 2 p.m. today. MSU will pitch Evan Mitchell against Portland's ace, Travis Radke, the West Coast Conference freshman of the year in 2012.
"He has an SEC-caliber arm," MSU coach John Cohen said.
"I think it's going to be a great test for our ball club."

Skip to comments.Syria's Assad slams Saudi ideology as 'threat to world'
Posted on 01/16/2014 7:04:26 AM PST by mac_truck
Damascus (AFP) - Syrian President Bashar al-Assad warned during a meeting in Damascus on Wednesday with Iran's foreign minister that Saudi Arabia's political and religious ideology is "a threat to the world," state television reported.
He was referring to Wahhabism, an ultra-conservative Sunni Muslim tradition which is predominant in Saudi Arabia, a key backer of Syria's revolt against Assad.
"President Assad warns during his meeting with Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif of the threat posed by Wahhabi thinking to all the world, not just to the region," the report said.
"The Syrian people and some peoples in the region know how serious the threat posed by Wahhabism is, and everyone must contribute to the confrontation against it and to eradicating it from the root," said Assad, who belongs to the Alawite offshoot of Shiite Islam.
The comments came amid ongoing tensions between Syria and Saudi Arabia, which are fiercely opposed to each other.
Assad's meeting with Zarif, top diplomat of Syria's chief regional ally Iran, comes less than a week before the so-called Geneva II peace conference, which is aimed at ending the conflict in Syria that has killed 130,000 people in nearly three years.

Kettle calling the pot black but I can't argue with his conclusion.
If he was smart, he'd explicitly link Wahhabism and 9/11.
Assad is apparently much brighter than Bammy.
Actually, I think Obama may have finally woken up about the Saudis, we'll see.
The solution to Islam is simple, effective, and cheap: The Pig Bomb.
Any and all Islam is antithetical to, and irreconcilable with the rest of the world.
Assad is a secularist and an ally of Syrian Christians.
Ha. Well, that statement ensures the flow of more $$$ from Khamenei, whose ambitions are no different from the Wahabbis
A pile of dog poop is smarter than obama.
With the exception of Israel, there are no good players in the Middle East.
But it were Wahabbis who bombed NYC and Pentagon on 9/11 and took Russian schoolchildren hostage in Beslan, not Khamenei.
Assad's ideology is
Me - Power; Cost - irrelevant.
"Assads ideology is
Me - Power; Cost - irrelevant."
That's how things work over there. That is why Iraq is falling to Al-Qaida and Afghanistan will always be a crap hole.
Assad knows the only way to keep ancient enemies from killing each other is to make them fear you more than each other. The Russians understood this too in places like Czechoslovakia and Romania.
unfortunately for the Middle East and decades of U.S. Middle East foreign policy, Assad is correct
unfortunately also, the theocrats in Iran are no better; just a Shia version of radical fundamentalist Islam
It was the IRI (Khamenie) who allowed some of the terrorists safe passage thru Iran
And it was the IRI who financed the bombing of Khobar Towers, Beirut Barracks Bombing, and the IRI who killed & maimed tens of thousands of Americans in Iraq & Afghanistan with Iranian made IED's and through their tutelage having others do it.
US - Power; Cost - irrelevant; export Whabbism.
Tough not to agree with him..
Stopped clock, check again in 12:00 hrs.
Wahhabism is killing the planet in ways petroleum never could.
Right, the Shia are tame. They've never hurt Americans.
The key to understanding the Third World is family life.
If your family can lay claim to your success and is a network of interlocking relationships in which you don't get to choose your spouse, nor live in a nuclear family without ties to your extended family then your country will be backwards.
That's the formula.
An enemy of an enemy is the phrase that comes to mind.
My enemy is Al Qaeda, not Bashir Assad.
The entire ME is a tar baby. I'd be building as many nuclear plants as possible here in America. I'd kick open the floodgates of petroleum exploitation and completely deregulate the energy markets. Other than Israel, there are very few good guys.
Until that culture changes, things will continue to deteriorate. Have you seen this?:
That's the psychology we're up against and we thing government schooling has caused terrible indoctrination.
Yup .... Pot, kettle. Kettle, pot.
A broken clock is right.
"...during his meeting with Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif..." ...comes less than a week before the so-called Geneva II peace conference, which is aimed at ending the conflict in Syria that has killed 130,000 people in nearly three years.so-called is correct; of the 130,000 dead, more than 90 percent have been murdered by the Assad regime, his Iranian thug enablers, or the Iranian proxies the Hizzies.
I'm not advocating on part of either radical group but there is a huge difference between militants taking on US military in the Middle East and another group, killing civilians en-masse in America and Russia.
Btw, an idea that US supports the latter group in ruining the Middle East makes huge impact on the first group and that is why they are planting their IEDs against military. I can't say their idea is really wrong. Both Bushes supported Al-Qaeda, so did Clinton but all of it is so open and official under Obamao.
And that's saying something. I always thought Bashar Assad wasn't as bright as his father was.
I give Assad credit for putting his finger directly on the problem which is more than any feckless American leader will do. He's also smart enough to give up his chemical weapons stockpile, now that the Saudis are using them in his country.
"Im not advocating on part of either radical group but there is a huge difference between militants taking on US military in the Middle East and another group, killing civilians en-masse in America and Russia."
If the IRI thought they could successfully pull it off & get away with it, they would. Instead, they finance attacks and cooperate to help others achieve that goal.
It's so simple.
This is why many formerly backward countries are moving ahead; their family structures are geared toward power and success through professional lives as well as marital alliances and unlike us, they are actually uninterested in being politically correct or 'nice,' but actually CARE about the well being of their family members.
Whooooa, Assad to Iran, the Wahhabi is a threat? Who does he think runs Iran? All those Mullahs brought in by Khomeini were Wahhabis from Saudi Arabia. The Iranians I know wish those Mullahs would get the hell out of Iran.
Wahhabism is banned in Iran so I'm not sure what you're talking about.

Thoughts on the Judiciary
Recently, after yet another cannibalistic Republican primary debate, Newt Gingrich was widely criticized and castigated by fellow Republicans, Democrats, and the Obama controlled media for stating that the judiciary is out of control and needs to be reined in. While I am no fan of Newt I find I am in total agreement with him and rather than castigating him every Democrat, Republican, as well as the American people should be supporting his position.
Our nation was formed as a Federal Republic composed of three branches, equal in authority and independent of each other, such that they might check and balance one another. The usurpation on the part of the judiciary of the authority, under the extra-constitutional concept of judicial review, to "interpret" the meaning of any aspect of the Constitution; the very idea of the judiciary being the "ultimate arbiter" of the Constitution places them in a superior position to the other two branches of government and the people and destroys that critical concept of "checks and balances". Thomas Jefferson warned us "The opinion which gives to the judges the right to decide what laws are constitutional and what not, not only for themselves, in their own sphere of action, but for the Legislature and Executive also in their spheres, would make the Judiciary a despotic branch." Today we are living under that dictatorship of the judiciary that Jefferson warned us of.
I have read and re-read Article III of the Constitution, which vests the powers of the judiciary, and I can find no explicit authority granted by the Constitution to that department of government to "interpret" the elements of the Constitution or to be its "final arbiter" as to intent of any aspect nor do I find the term "judicial review" in any portion of the Constitution; to the contrary I can see evidence in the words of Jefferson in a letter to Judge Spencer Roane in reference to the Supreme Court having the exclusive right to interpret the Constitution which reflected the contemporary view; "In denying the right they usurp of exclusively explaining the constitution, I go further than you do, if I understand rightly your quotation from the Federalist, of an opinion that 'the judiciary is the last resort in relation to the other departments of the government, but not in relation to the rights of the parties to the compact under which the judiciary is derived.' If this opinion be sound, then indeed is our constitution a complete felo de se (ed. the act of suicide). For intending to establish three departments, coordinate and independent, that they might check and balance one another, it has given, according to this opinion, to one of them alone, the right to prescribe rules for the government of the others, and to that one too, which is unelected by, and independent of the nation...The constitution, on this hypothesis, is a mere thing of wax in the hands of the judiciary, which they may twist, and shape into any form they please."
When it comes to enforcing the common law, in my opinion, it is the proper function of the judiciary but, when it comes to questions of the Constitution or of challenges to the constitutionality of the common law I believe the inferior courts' proper function to be advisory to the legislature. Their function in each case should be to review the complaint of unconstitutionality or ambiguity and pass it, accompanied by their insights and opinions to a next level, the Supreme Court of the state in which the action is begun, whose authority, in turn, should extend only to review the complaint and lower court comments and either pass it to the next level with their comments or dismiss it. If they view it to be valid they then, and only then, should pass it to the next level, the U.S. Supreme Court whose sole function should be to similarly review the case and either dismiss it or pass it, adding their comments and opinions, to the Congress of the United States where, finally, it should either enter into the amendment process or is dismissed. If the question is accepted then a proposed amendment should then be fabricated, voted on and, if passed by Congress, as prescribed in the Constitution, it should then be sent to the states for ratification. Such a process as described would, I think, further the original intent of the Constitution to insure checks and balances with no one office of government dictating to another how to govern (such as we presently have with the judiciary usurping ultimate authority under "judicial review") and would insure that any question of constitutionality is deferred to the amendment process and avoid the ill affects of the present pseudo-dictatorship wherein one judge has the power to overturn the will of millions of voters or to rewrite the constitution from the bench.
I have to agree with what I believe was Newt's intent; simply because we've tolerated this usurpation and dictatorship of the Judiciary to go on for so long unchecked is not a sufficient reason to allow it to continue...undoing it will be difficult and requires the political will to do so but if we are to restore the Constitution to its original intent it is an endeavor we must undertake.

Be aware of Wilderness proposal
I am aware that there has been a lot of information, letters written, and opinions stated about the Wilderness proposal concerning our public land here in Emery County. The current proposed America's Red Rock Wilderness Bill covers more than 5 million acres at this time. The proposed increase of the Wilderness Study Acres will cover 9.2 million acres. As residents of Emery County, what do you enjoy doing with your free time? Do you enjoy loading up the kids and the 4-wheelers and heading out to the desert of the San Rafael? Do you enjoy the drive in the mountains on a Sunday scoping out the wildlife? Why did you decide to make Emery County your home? If you are like most residents of Emery County you are happy to use the recreation areas that our county has to offer. You probably live in Emery County because you like the rural life as compared to a busy city life. I am reminded at this time of year also that the Wilderness proposal would compromise our rights to enjoy part of the holiday season that we have become accustomed to. While driving around in the desert looking for our usual pinion pine that we would adorn for the Christmas tree I thought about this bill. Would we still be able to cut a fresh Christmas tree? The way I understand the current bill we would probably still be able to cut a tree, after purchasing the correct permit from the Bureau of Land Management, but we would not be able to drive our truck to the site to get the tree. We would have been walking for miles looking for the tree and back several miles with tree in hand dragging behind us. The thought of it all makes me wonder. How did the Federal Government come to the conclusion that making this land a Wilderness Study Area would be best anyway? Who does it benefit? It surely doesn't benefit the residents of Emery County. If this bill is passed it would greatly impact our economy. Not only do our communities rely on the fossil fuel that is on these lands (not to mention the fossil fuel that is still yet to be discovered) but, we need the tax dollars that these fossil fuels bring. The economic factor of this bill would also hurt Utah as a state. The bill is sponsored by an East Coast Congressmen by the name of Maurice Hinchey (who represents New York's 22nd District). Has Mr. Maurice Hinchey ever been to our area to enjoy what the land has to offer recreationally? Why is someone who lives on the East Coast making decisions concerning our local land? The Emery County Commissioners have selectively put together the Emery County Public Lands Council. This council is compromised of residents of Emery County who represent the different uses of the land i.e., water usage, cattlemen, recreation, mining and public resources, and road usage. This council has spent the last two and a half years drafting a proposal to send to Washington. This proposal that the Emery County Public Lands Council has created that would be a compromise to benefit all parties involved (state, county, federal, land users). How much land should be set aside as wilderness and how can the other land be used by the other interested parties? The Public Lands Council is not adverse to designated wilderness area but, they are working hard to ensure our "way of life" here is kept. If you enjoy motorized recreation (RVs, ATVs, dirt bikes, 4X4's, mountain bikes), or if you make your living in the coal mining industry or the cattle industry, or you have friends or family members that do, it's time to step up and do your part, let your voice be heard. Join the Shared Access Alliance or donate your time and information to educate others in the county that will be affected by the America's Red Rock Wilderness Act sponsored by SUWA. There is great power in numbers. If you don't speak up, who will. You have a voice and every voice makes a difference in fighting this fight. We are up against a very powerful organization. Please use what you have to make a difference for our way of life and the way of life for our posterity.

A New Year's resolution that worked
Finally, a New Year's resolution that worked. In past years, the people of Utah were challenged to make a New Year's Resolution to help save lives and sign up on the Yes Utah Donor Registry. Well, people listened, they made their resolutions and phenomenal things happened.
In 2011, The Utah Donor Registry reached a new level of more than 1,290,000 people, or about 74 percent of licensed drivers in Utah are signed up. Compared to the rest of the nation, Utah has one of the highest rates of participation on a donor registry. This says a lot about the giving, caring nature of the citizens of Utah. Because of these high participation rates, good things happen. For example, more lives were saved than ever before. More than 280 people received life saving transplants in 2010, the largest number of lives saved in a one year period for Utah. This year, 2011, even more lives were saved because people said "yes" to organ donation. Again, people caring about people and doing something about it.
The Good Samaritan Living Kidney Donor Program continues to grow and save lives. From its beginning in 2002, there has been 59 Good Samaritan donors. These are people that don't even know their recipients. They stepped forward to donate a kidney, because they felt the need to help someone.
Thanks to the people of Utah, who care so much about their fellow citizens, we are ending the suffering of many waiting for transplants. There are still more than 570 Utahns waiting for a life saving transplant. If you haven't joined the Utah Donor Registry, I challenge you to sign up by saying "yes" on your driver license, go on-line to www.yesutah.org , or call 1-866-937-8824. Even easier, if you have a "smart phone," go to www.yesutah.org and sign up via your phone. Get the facts and help save lives.
Keep up the good work Utah. The rest of the nation looks to our giving state as a beacon of hope for what they want to accomplish.
Alex McDonald, Salt Lake City
Character counts
Given the reality of today and the total mess our leaders have made, we need a drastic change in the policies. There has never been a social, economic or political problem that was not caused by leadership. We are in this mess directly because of poor leadership and leaders of poor character. Lying is a way of life. We now have leaders that move because of expediency rather than because of principle. The Founders deliberately made our form of government cumbersome so that expediency would be difficult to achieve. About the only thing that needs to be done expediently is defense in time of attack, as in the Pearl Harbor attack. Perhaps a Ron Paul is just the drastic change we need to turn the corner on expediency. I would like to see him as Vice President so he could run the Senate.
I don't quite know what to think of the assortment of candidates presently offered. Only a few have track records that demonstrate character. Most of the front runners have character flaws. Bachman and Paul seem to have the best track record at this point. I could handle Palen or even a Trump jumping in at this point. They are a breath of fresh air.
Have you not noticed that when an attack begins on a good conservative, it happens all at once all over the country? That cannot possibly be a coincidence, someone has to be setting forth a policy and promoting the buzz words. It is not possible for different people so say the exact same phrases at essentially the time unless someone is coordinating the attack. How do the newspapers, pundits, politicians, experts and so called academics get the same words to say at nearly the same time unless someone is pulling their strings, and we sit around saying, "Duh, wha'd-he say? Gosh by Golly."
If we keep doing what we've always done, we will continue to get what we always got. That is a guarantee. There is no other possibility short of God's direct intervention.
As for Romney, he is part of the establishment, a RINO, not a principled leader. Listen to his language and you should notice that he is a sanitized speaker, his vocabulary has been cleansed of all controversy. He is just a "go-along" with the major acceptable thoughts. He has nothing significant to say other than established ideas. From what he says, he is not his own man.
Ron Paul, on the other hand, has an established pattern of bucking the main stream ideas. Perhaps it is past the time for us to deviate from the acceptable ideas of handling our problems. They obviously don't work and haven't worked for 60 years. The liberals have a great farm club and are great "doers" while the rest of us watch and wonder, how did they do that? We have failed to study the principles that work. The real conservatives have just sat around wondering, "What just happened?"
Saul Alinsky, was just a good observer of successful patterns and chose to use then against us. But because he got there first, does not mean we cannot also use the same principles of success; they are universal, nor left wing.
But no, we think if the left does it, it must be wrong, right? Silly thinking. Principles are perpetual and universal, methods change. Cleanliness is perpetual, but we could still be going down to the river with our scrub boards to wash our clothes if we did not change our methods. That's us, scrub board methods in a sophisticated world.
The point is we must deviate from the accepted philosophy of leading and get back to the principles of good leadership. That starts with us learning to lead. Leaders lead from the front, so step out there. Lead by example. Take a chance, you may discover a new niche. But, you will have to become well informed. Someone once said, "You are not necessarily entitled to your opinion. You are, however, entitled to an informed opinion." I think there is some merit in that. So become informed and step out there.
If you remember, Jethro gave Moses some great advice. He said appoint leaders of 10s, leaders of 50s, leaders of 100s and leaders of 1,000s. We are all called to lead at some point in our lives. Where do we fit in that pattern? On what are we to stand and in which gap are we to stand?
"Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong."
"Let all things be done decently and in order." 1 Cor 16:13 and 14:40 KJV
How does a real man stand fast? Real men (of faith) do not quit. Decently and in order means with good character and by plans. Where is the gap you are to fill? What is the stand you are to take? The battle is ours to stand-or quit. How many battles are we going to let the opponents of freedom win before we decide to stand in the gap and do something about it? How many city council meetings or county commission meetings are we going to miss before we decide that every free citizen must protect freedom. This is the only country ever created by the people and for the people rather than by some megalomaniac for his own aggrandizement and there are still many of them. Maybe we can become political deviates as were our Foundering Fathers.

PFS stands for Portable Floating-point Streams, and it's a framework for reading and writing HDR images in a variety of formats and also tonemapping them. The HDRUtils library is an Haskell library for reading these streams and formatting them into Haskeller friendly 2D C-compatible arrays of 32bit floats.On top of these are a simple index/assign bijection that uses Russell O'Connor's Data.Colour package to deal with colorspaces in a human-perception centric way. Most tonemapping algorithms are based loosely on human perception models, so Haskell is ideally suited to developing new tonemapping algorithms based on roconnor's model.
The general procedure for working with the streams is something like:
import Graphics.Image.PFS import Graphics.Image.PixelMap main = getFrame >>= myToneMappingProcedure . toPixelMap >>= putFrame . fromPixelMap
Where myToneMappingProcedure is something that takes pixels and rewrites them algorithmically. I intend soon to add a more functional layer to this, using immutable arrays or STArrays, but I haven't decided on the best way to do it yet. This at least makes the library available. I'd like to see GdkPixbuf or DevIL images map to PixelMaps, eventually, and to see frame-aligning algorithms, convolutions, and other things layer on top of this library as applicative combinators. In the meantime, however, have fun with what I have, and if you have a good idea for a combinator architecture, let me know and we'll work it out.

Always test a swatch first if you are going to care for your wool fabrics at home rather than using a drycleaner. Many of the fine wools Mood sells online and in-store have already been "sponged," or preshrunk, but you can preshrink your wool if necessary. Mood recommends taking your uncut wool fabric to the drycleaners and asking them to steam it for you, which will safely preshrink it more effectively than you can using home methods. Mood strongly recommends test-laundering a swatch, if you plan to wash your garment or home furnishings yourself.

My expertise lies more in the Naruto Universe than it does in the Bleach Universe, regardless of how much I enjoy Bleach! So i have some questions.
Quincies are human. So how is His Majesty still alive after a 1,000 years!?!?!? Does it have something to do with hiding out in Hueco Mundo and living of Spirit Particles somehow? And if he's been alive for that long, then he has plenty of time to train and become powerful like Old-Man Commander of the gotei 13.
To enter HM and SS, they need to be in their Soul Forms, so they just might be souls, or they have used the same device that Urahara used to send Chad, Ori, Ishida to SS/HM.
Basically, his body might just be in hibernation or something, while he is parading in his soul only...
I'm sorry if these questions seem stupid..(which they probably are) but it's been bugging me so much..
1. Many shinigami died (and still are dying) during the VR invasion, so is the balance of the worlds ok now?
2. Whose side do you think Ishida would choose? I mean, are there any chances he'd go with the VR?
3. Did Ichigo quit his part-time job or did he just take some time off again? Or did he forget about the job? And will we ever see miss Unagiya again?..
And the most important of all: 4. Where is Kon??? I bet he could have become a decent member of Ichigo's team if only he did some cool training! Yeah...I'm just joking..
...You Know?..
2. As a Quincy, Ishida's job is to destroy Hollows, but lately he cooperated with Urahara to keep the balance stable. What's more the pact that Ishida made with his father, IIRC, entailed that he won't associate with the Shinigami in any way (no helping and no fighting against them).
3. Ichigo was bored, his future as a Shinigami was lost, thus he needed to do something with his free time. Now that his father has "stolen" his future, he can only tread upon the path of Shinigami and Shinigami can produce money at will... it is possible that they are the real source of hyperinflation ;P. I'm not sure, but her kid suggested that she was part of Ichigo's harem... well perhaps she will be a new partner for Ishin, who knows ;P ?
4. He lost his purpose the moment Ichigo has stopped being Shinigami. It's possible that he was "retired", or simply put in a box with intention to sell someone else... nah, he probably tours the world or something . Well, he is a Shinigami-made soul, which probably can't raise it's Spiritual Power, although with certain "improvements", he might be able to absorb energy, thus becoming more of Shinigami-made Hollow... after all they were created with intention for battle.
Is this arc the end of Bleach? I don't know why but I feel like I read somewhere that the manga would end after this is over...
I kind of don't see how it could end now though when we haven't had any VL interaction yet or seen squad zero either. Yamamoto is wiping out the Quincy army so there is no need for them to interveine and no one seems to be going after the Spirit King anymore lol. Well I guess Kubo could punk out and just end it without showing anyone all the super powerful people he talked about all this time, but I really hope he doesn't

Jay Thompson gave a strong and stern pre-game talk to his Bulldogs troops prior to the start of Wednesday's semifinal game between Harrisburg and Hamilton County in the Harrisburg Class 2A Regional at Dorris Heights.
Part of that speech was a proposed winning streak he wanted his team to go on and not see come to an end for six more games.
Harrisburg got off on the right foot, pounding out 21 hits in a 17-0 victory over Hamilton County.
Justin Younger paced the Bulldogs (29-4) at the plate, finishing 3-for-3 with two RBIs and two runs scored.
Cody Hall picked up the win on the bump as the senior scattered just two hits over five innings, as he struck out three and walked one.
"Cody pitched great, he stayed around the plate and kept the game moving," Thompson said.
Harrisburg didn't waste any time putting up three runs in the first inning when Cody Hall singled to left field, followed by a Copper Thompson single to right center that scored Hall. Brady Mayer then roped a double to left center and Younger provided a two RBI single to left center, scoring Thompson and Mayer.
Harrisburg then put up a 10-spot in the second inning, batting around the order as Noah Vallette led off the inning, reaching base on a single. Sykes Thompson singled up the middle and Ryne Roper put down a perfectly positioned base hit down the left field line to load the bases.
Hall roped an RBI fly ball to left field to score Vallette and prior to a Cooper Thompson strikeout, Sykes Thompson scored on a passed ball.
With Mayer up at bat, Roper scored on a passed ball, before Mayer's base hit into left field scored Blake Buchanan, who was courtesy running for Hall.
Younger then took a pitch back up the box, before Matthew Phipps reached on a error, scoring Braxton Keasler, courtesy running for Mayer. Nick Davis reached safely on base hit past second, scoring two.
Vallette came back up, this time with a base knock past short and Sykes Thompson closed out the scoring onslaught when he went up for one that was poked into right field to score Davis.
The Bulldogs put up two more runs in the third inning when Carson Batts' soft apple down the left field line loaded the bases as Mayer and Younger each had base hits.
Ryan Luce induced a fielder's choice to score Keasler and Chris Willsey also had a fielder's choice, scoring Younger.
Bryan Bennett singled in the fourth to move Brennan Street to second as Street led off the fourth with a walk. Following back-to-back outs by Keasler and Batts, Luce singled into right field, scoring Street and Willsey's RBI single past second scored Bennett.
Page 2 of 3 - Roper, Hall, Mayer and Sykes Thompson all went 2-for-3 on the day. Roper scored two runs, while Hall scored two runs and added an RBI. Mayer had an RBI and Sykes Thompson scored two runs an added an RBI.
Cooper Thompson finished 1-for-3 with a run and an RBI, while Phipps, Batts, Luce, Davis and Willsey all went 1-for-2. Willsey, Davis and Luce each had two RBIs, while Bennett and Buchanan both went 1-for-1.
"We hit a lot of balls on the head of the bat today," Thompson said. "We had some balls find some holes early, but more importantly we had a lot of kids go up there with a lot of confidence today."
With the victory Wednesday, Harrisburg surpassed last year's win total of 28-9-1. The Bulldogs will now play in Saturday's IHSA Class 2A Regional Championship against today (Thursday's) winner of Massac County and Vienna.
Saturday's championship game will be at 11 a.m. at Dorris Heights.
Gallatin County 5,
Carrier Mills-Stonefort
GOLCONDA - A go-ahead run in the bottom of the sixth inning proved to be the difference for Gallatin County as the Hawks held off Carrier Mills-Stonefort 5-4 to advance to Saturday's IHSA Class 1A Regional Championship at Pope County.
Wes McGuire got the win for Gallatin County as he relieved Zach McGuire, who went 4.33, giving up four runs on six hits, while striking out seven and walking two.
Wes McGuire pitched 2.67 innings, allowing no runs on three hits, while striking out seven.
Dalton Summers took the loss for Carrier Mills-Stonefort, pitching two innings and gave up just one run on one hit, while hitting a batter and walking one.
Loren Whiting got the start for the Wildcats and went four innings, scattering four hits and giving up four runs. Whiting walked three and struck out two.
Gallatin County claimed a 4-0 lead after three innings when Marcus Wargle singled, Tyler Crayne and McGuire drew back-to-back walks. Daine Hish then roped a three-run double and the throw to third went into the dugout to score Hish.
"Loren had trouble finding the strike zone and after the two walks, Hish turned on one with a double down the right field line," Carrier Mills-Stonefort head coach Allen Jackson said.
The Wildcats then rallied for two runs in the fourth inning when Darren Betz led off with a single, followed by Josh Bailey reaching base via error by the shortstop. A Whiting walk led to a Jonah Crowder two-run single.
"It was great to see us come out in the fourth and start chipping away," Jackson said. "but after the throw home (after the crowder single) we had second and third with no outs and couldn't score. That came back to haunt us."
Page 3 of 3 - In the fifth, Carrier Mills-Stonefort continued the comeback in the fifth when Anthony Kaloder doubled, as did Summers, which followed a Bailey single giving way to Whiting roping an RBI double.
Gallatin County got the one run it needed when Mitchell Ramsey was hit by a pitch to start the sixth and an errant pick off attempt at first base allowed Ramsey to move to third. York then provided an RBI single to score Ramsey that proved to be the game winner.
"We missed some opportunities to score but credit McGuire, He's tough to handle," Jackson said. "We had a difficult year losing quite a few players for various reasons but the kids that remained never quit and were a privalege to coach."
Carrier Mills-Stonefort finished the season 9-15. Gallatin County will now play in Saturday's regional championship at 11 a.m.

Cute Boot
"This color really caught my eye. It is great for wearing w/ black pants or blue jeans. The picture shows it with the top folded down, but because the top is a sweater like material, it can be pulled up and allowed to slouch. The first time I wore them was for several hours. I don't usually wear a new shoe that long, but they were comfortable on the first wearing."

Flat Footed
"This boots seems nice enough - simple, good looking and true to size. Yet I find them extremely flat footed. I will either need to return them or find arch supporting insoles that fit inside their rather stiff shoe part. I would not buy them unless they were at a greatly discounted price."

Very comfortable
"Got these boots recently and they are very comfortable. The foot size fits perfectly. My only reservation is that the sock part was too roomy, so I had to sew it up a couple of inches. Apart from that, this is one of the most comfortable boots I've ever had. Would highly recommend to anyone seeking comfort (not bad looking, too)."

nice everyday shoe (but not for the summer :)
"The shoe seems simple but nice. true to its size. If you want to wear it with heavier socks then take half size larger. Although I am not sure whether I would pay for it a full price."
