Now that the dust has settled in the northern hemisphere, we thought it only right to sit down and select our Test Team of the Week.
Now that the dust has settled in the northern hemisphere, Planet Rugby's scribes thought it only right to sit down and select a XV of the Week.
It was a tough XV to settle on and some positions – such as hooker and wing – made for difficult decisions that took a bit of time to agree upon.
But we got there in the end so herewith our stand-out players from a busy international weekend.
International Team of the Week
15 Brice Dulin (France) – The stand-out full-back of the week. Dulin is looking to nail down the fifteen jersey ahead of the likes of Yoann Huget and Maxime Medard and went a long way to doing just that in Paris, scoring a try, beating five defenders and making 65 metres. Dulin proved to be a difficult player to put down on Saturday and if he stays injury free, will be a vital player for the French in next year's Six Nations Championship.
14 Charlie Piutau (New Zealand) – Not too bad this international rugby lark is it? Piutau continues to settle in the black jersey and was excellent against difficult opposition. Like many strong Test players he found a way to break the deadlock as his well-taken try and assist for Kieran Read's score deserved the credit he got. A mention for Ireland wing Dave Kearney, who scored two tries after coming off the bench.
13 Tevita Kuridrani (Australia) – Seems to have nailed down the outside centre berth for the Wallabies after another assured display against Italy. Made a couple of line breaks, was involved in two of his team-mates' tries and was rewarded with one of his own. He also impressed on defence with nine tackles made at the Stadio Olympico in Turin.
12 Wesley Fofana (France) – Proved his worth at inside centre once again. Fofana's quality shone through in Paris as he got the better of Ma'a Nonu, making over 60 metres to go with nine tackles and a whole host of other positive moments. He sees off Jean de Villiers.
11 Nick Cummins (Australia) – The Honey Badger was in brilliant form against Italy as he cut loose for two tries, an assist and a decent amount of metres to boot. When on form and given sufficient ball, Cummins is able to gain invaluable go-forward for the Wallabies and that was what he managed to do in Turin. This was a hard call mind as Bryan Habana was at his jackling best on the ground, combined with being an attacking threat throughout.
10 Quade Cooper (Australia) – At the origin of three of his team's tries, the Aussie press are calling Cooper's effort in Turin "one of his best Test performances in years." Word from inside the camp is that the Wallaby vice-captain is impressing his team-mates with his attitude too. Has the tide turned for Ewen McKenzie's team? It's Dublin next for them.
9 Fourie du Preez (South Africa): There were a few raised eyebrows when Heyneke Meyer recalled the veteran scrum-half from Japan in June, but Du Preez has been brilliant for the Boks since his return to the international arena. Another tactical master class in Cardiff.
8 Billy Vunipola (England) – Stuart Lancaster seems to be in good health at number eight as Vunipola was impressive before Ben Morgan came on to seal the game with a late score. Vunipola though gets our vote ahead of David Denton after another industrious showing.
7 Richie McCaw (New Zealand) – We were tempted to go for Michael Hooper, who was a constant nuisance at the breakdown but McCaw was at the forefront of an exceptional defensive effort from the All Blacks, putting in an amazing 19 tackles. A mention too for Chris Robshaw, who also tackled his guts out.
6 Wenceslas Lauret (France) – That was some performance from the French blindside. He caused the All Blacks all kinds of bother with ball in-hand, making over 50 metres against an All Black pack that was hanging on for large spells of the game. Lauret sees of Springbok bruiser Willem Alberts, who put in big hit after big hit against Wales. That Bok back-row trio of Duane Vermeulen, Francois Louw and Alberts is something special.
5 Tim Swinson (Scotland) – Our reporter at the game had Swinson as man of the match after an impressive performance. Swinson made 12 tackles and contributed to Scotland eventually pulling away from Japan. Richie Gray will have a job displacing him after that.
4 Brodie Retallick (New Zealand) – We've mentioned before that the Whitelock-Retallick combination should last for a long time. Retallick was outstanding in Paris as he epitomised the team's defensive effort, making 19 hits that were all gainline stoppers.
3 Nicolas Mas (France) – Tightheads get picked first and foremost to scrum, and Mas underlined why he is considered by many to be the best in the business, forcing a handful of penalties out of Tony Woodcock.
2 Bismarck du Plessis (South Africa) – There was a three-way split in votes for our hooker jersey as Wales' Richard Hibbard put in his strongest performance for a long time while England's Dylan Hartley was man of the match against the Pumas. Rory Best also went well for Ireland. But in the end we settled on South Africa's Du Plessis, who scored a try, assisted one for Jean de Villiers and was generally just a rock up front for his country.
1 Jack McGrath (Ireland) – An excellent debut for the young Leinster loosehead, who scrummed well against a seasoned Samoan opponent and made himself very useful around the park, topping the tackle stats for props in all the games this weekend.

CORINTH – In less than 30 minutes Wednesday morning during a meeting of Alcorn County supervisors and Corinth aldermen, the group referred to as a supercommittee voted to remove all members of Corinth's tourism board for not complying with the line item budget set for the fiscal year that began Oct. 1.
Ward 1 Alderman Andrew "Bubba" Labas made the motion that was seconded by District 3 Supervisor Tim Mitchell. District 2 Supervisor Dal Nelms was absent, and Ward 2 Alderman Ben Albarracin voted against the motion, and all other board members voted to support the move.
The meeting had been called by the two government groups who asked members of the Corinth Area Convention and Visitors Bureau/tourism board to meet to discuss operations and budget issues.
Corinth Area CVB Executive Director Kristy White, accompanied by tourism board Chairman Luke Doehner, told the supercommittee that a quorum of board members were not available to meet for various reasons with the meeting immediately following the holidays. She asked on behalf of the tourism board that the meeting be rescheduled for Jan. 15, the date of the tourism board's regularly scheduled meeting.
By not following the line item budget that the supercommittee voted on for the tourism board in September 2012, Labas said he had lost confidence in the tourism board and offered the motion.
Asked by Albarracin how the tourism office would operate until new board members could be appointed, Labas said there were many qualified individuals who could serve and said they should be able to appoint a new board within a couple of weeks.
The Corinth board meets at 4:30 p.m. today in its regular work session and 5 p.m. in regular meeting. Both meetings were postponed one day for the New Year's holiday.

Job Description for Associate Pastor
An associate pastor works alongside an executive or senior pastor in larger congregations. The associate pastor typically must be an ordained minister within the denomination or faith of the church. That ordination normally requires at least a bachelor's degree, but sometimes also requires post-graduate work in divinity studies from an accredited school or bible colleges.Read More...
The associate pastor helps prepare worship services with the senior pastor. They usually fill a liaison role to lay liturgy groups within the congregation, helping lead their efforts in the worship service. They should also take an active role in presenting the liturgy and teaching sermons. They also must ensure a consistency of worship message and medium from the senior pastor through various elder groups, choirs, and liturgical speakers.
Many times the associate pastor's job includes assisting with recruiting members to the congregation, which involves not only community interaction, but also developing strategies to contact "guests" who have attended services and reaching out to potential members. Additionally, this pastor is usually called upon to assist with running weekly activities such as bible studies and fellowship groups. They visit members in hospitals and nursing homes to offer comfort.
Depending on the size of the congregation, the associate pastor may be required to have some prior experience at a smaller church. They normally are expected to work many different hours and days as required by the needs of their church congregation.

Jimbo Fisher has led Florida State back to No. 1 in the country, and the university's administration is rewarding him with a contract that will make him one of the nation's 10 highest-paid coaches.
The new five-year deal, which will be announced this week, is expected to pay him more than $4 million per year and run through the 2018 season. The deal was confirmed by two university sources in Charlotte during FSU's victory Saturday night against Duke in the ACC Championship Game.
The new deal would rank Fisher ninth in the country, according to the USA TODAY Sports coaches database.
COACHES PAY: Tracking the salaries
Fisher previously was paid $2.75 million per season. The contract was first reported by the Palm Beach Post.
In his fourth season as head coach, Jimbo Fisher has helped Florida State to a perfect regular season (12-0 record) and a spot in the ACC championship game against Duke.
The Seminoles led the Blue Devils 38-0 after three quarters on Saturday night.
On Jan. 6 in Pasadena, Calif., Fisher will try to lead the Seminoles to the third national championship in school history. His star quarterback, Jameis Winston, is expected to win the Heisman Trophy next weekend.
Fisher, who replaced legendary head coach Bobby Bowden in January 2010, now has a 44-10 record in his first four seasons as a head coach.
Ira Schoffel writes for The Tallahassee Democrat.

Sign me up, always found this series disturbingly addictive.
Sign me up, always found this series disturbingly addictive.
"Damn it, you can't euthanize people with minty fresh breath!"
Disturbingly addictive; tell me about it, I still have the OSTs playing in my car from when I first watched the series. Which could easily be a few months ago.
We need to spread the love for despair! Speaking of which, sweet banner, Sangaz, are you open for Zetsubou banner requests? :3
On that note, mind if I make some sig bars for the FC like my Claymore one? Although obviously with greater emphasis on the whole Zetsubou aspect of Zetsubou.
"Damn it, you can't euthanize people with minty fresh breath!"
Thanks Imoto and sure, If you have a picture in mind to take a render from or certain character and prefered size, I shall make one... or try :x
Ravona would no doubt come up with something sweet looking too.
Edit: I'm a tad slow, Make as many banners and such as you like Ravona, I'll add them to the first post :3
Edit 2: I've just been going through episodes of it to get pics for animated banners and character profiles, while flicking through episodes it dawned on me that I love all the character more more every time I see them, It's just such an all around sexy anime.
As jja put it...
(02:17:29) (!Sangaz|afk) I love the character design for all the girls more every time
(02:19:11) (@jja|away) I know, somehow they are all just so cute
(02:19:23) (@jja|away) but at the same time the drawing is very simple and plain
I should have the sig bars and some avatars done soon, I've been kind of under the weather lately and I find that usually messes with my results so I've been putting it off slightly. :<
"Damn it, you can't euthanize people with minty fresh breath!"
I've been struggling too, never been very good at doing backgrounds so I hit a brick wall everytime I get to that stage D:
I already have a few animated 100x100px avatars that I found somewhere way back when, I'll add them with the other stuff I eventually make.
Looking forward to seeing what you come up with Ravona
Just postin' to see my post along with my pretty sig. :> Much thanks Sangaz. EDIT: It matches my name. xD
<3 your new sig. Sangaz does a good job :3 he made my avatar too

You: "I pronate a little, but I want a fast, responsive daily trainer." Asics: "We built a shoe for you. It's called the DS Trainer 17."
The DS Trainer 17 is more of the same. But it turns out that "the same" is pretty darn good. From our testing, we think runners who liked the DS Trainer 16 will cozy right up to this shoe.
Testers repeatedly mentioned that the DS Trainer offers one of the best blends of cushioning and responsiveness you can get in a running shoe. It still feels aggressive - more aggressive than some lighter and leaner models out there, in fact. That said, even though the DS Trainer was one of the pioneers in the slimmed down trainer category, it's now about an ounce heavier than many of its closest competitors. Don't let the weight deter you though. This is still a nimble trainer and a great choice for racing and speedwork as well.
One polarizing feature of the shoe is its clutch collar system, which is designed to allow custom adjustment of the heel collar by tightening the laces. Some testers paid no mind to this feature, and didn't feel that the heel was too tight or too loose. Others just couldn't feel locked in place enough with this design, and one tester actually felt too anchored in. We won't be surprised if Asics returns to a more traditional heel design in future versions of the shoe.
Overall, the upper offers a comfortable, close fit. Testers found the updated asymmetrical lacing easier to work with than the curved lacing in the last model.
Very nice fit throughout the midfoot, but I had a bit of a hotspot at the base of the tongue where it's sown to the rest of the shoe.
Love it love it love it. My one complaint is that the heel fit is just OK. If Asics went with a more traditional heel collar next time out, I wouldn't be mad.
Good shoe, but I would like to see the next one slimmed down and lighter, like the DS Trainers of the past.


text: Lacrimosa started down a goth rock path in 1990, when the duo of Anne Nurmi and Tilo Wolff came together in Switzerland. They began their own record label, Hall of Sermon, to release their first album the next year. Angst was the result, and it was a surprising hit for a debut album from a goth group. Lacrimosa continued to release albums through their own label, building a strong fan base across Europe, and by the late '90s there was really no reason to sign to a bigger label. Their music began to move away from goth, developing a keyboard-based rock style that bore little resemblance to the Sisters of Mercy. The group continued to release its material on a regular basis, using the Internet and touring regularly to stay active in the scene. ~ Bradley Torreano, Rovi

Each year in partnership with the Utah Commission on Volunteers, the Volunteer Centers of Utah present a Silver Bowl Award to one outstanding volunteer from each of Utah's 29 counties. A tradition that traces back to 1979, each recipient is presented with engraved silver bowls, hence the name "Silver Bowl Award."
This award honors individuals and groups who enrich the lives of others through dedicated volunteer service.

The Great Shakeout raises earthquake awareness
WASHINGTON COUNTY, Va. - The last earthquake felt in this area was more than two years ago and it prompted government and emergency workers to be prepared.
That's what's behind Thursday's "Great Southeastern Shakeout."
We experienced the earthquake drill with a fifth-grade class in Washington County, Virginia.
It was just a normal Thursday morning in a High Point Elementary fifth grade class. But each student was well aware that at some point a message would be heard -- na announcement of an earthquake drill.
And everyone knew exactly what to do: "drop, cover and hold on."
The class is a small part of the same thing happening across the Southeast. "A lot of the states we're doing this at the very same time this morning. I don't know what the number will be but I know that there will be over a million people who will have registered to do this," Emergency Management Director Pokey Harris says.
A quake in the summer of 2011 kind of caught the state off guard, and left some significant damage but thankfully no casualties. "I think that we used to believe that in the mountains we are protected or safe guarded from some the natural disasters but we're starting to see that's not true anymore," Harris said.
So how do you prepare for something totally unexpected. some natural disasters can be predicted but not an earthquake. And just as the students and their teachers have already learned, keep it simple, no matter the disaster. "You make a plan, you get a kit and stay informed. If you take those three principles and apply it any emergency situation I think that you can take came of your family," Harris says.
And there are plenty sources of information to help you get ready.

Posted on 08/17/2010 10:11:52 AM PDT by Justaham
MSNBC's Rachel Maddow is actually about to win an award for her "civility" and "tolerance."
"The Walter Cronkite Faith & Freedom Award, established by Interfaith Alliance in 1998, recognizes individuals who courageously promote democratic values, defend religious freedom and reinvigorate informed civic participation," reads a statement released by the organization Monday.
"The award recognizes individuals whose actions have embodied the values of civility, tolerance, diversity and cooperation in the advancement of public dialogue and public policy on traditionally controversial and divisive issues."
(Excerpt) Read more at newsbusters.org ...
Give her a Nobel Peace Prize and be done with it, already!
Well, it could've been worse. Olbermannnnn might have gotten it.
Rachel is very very liberal.
Why does she insist on looking like a boy?
She doesn't rant and rave as much as Olbermann or some other nitwits on MSNBC, but, she's still parroting the liberal line and denigrating conservatives every chance she gets.
Members of privileged minority groups can do no wrong. Their intolerance and hate is magically transformed into wonderful, kind, tolerant behavior worthy of being admired.
The award wil be presented by Ms. Butch Snarkey
Will she receive an award for her aberrant life style as well?
How can she reinvigorate civic participation if she's in the Witness Protection Program known as MSNBC?
Who is presenting the award? Lawrence O'Donnell or Ed Schultz?
Well when compared with Matthews and Olbermann and Schultz...
Remarkable: if she's civil, then most of us here are downright self-effacing. Or is there a beam in the eye of the Walter Cronkite Foundation, you think? (heh)
Not a lot of people watch her.
"The Walter Cronkite Faith & Freedom Award, established by Interfaith Alliance in 1998"
Bullstalin and Bullstalin established by Bullstalin...
Ralph Maddow is getting an award for civility to and tolerence of her fellow travellers.
Fixed it.
Walter Cronkite - SCUMBAG
This thread should have a projectile vomit warning!
I'd take Ed Schultz over Maddow. I favor the stout-hearted rabid dog over the sneaky snake.
Man of the Year?
Okay, but when does she and Keith receive the Alger Hiss award?
You tickled on a point. She's civil if you compare her to Keith Olbermann.
To be followed by Michael Moore's induction into the Weight Watchers' Hall of Fame?
She needs an award for beuthy, then.
As long as it's opposite-day...
The Academy Awards, the Nobel Peace Prize...libs love to give awards to other libs. But most clear thinking people realize what a joke it all is and laugh.
Beuthy? WTH?!?
What a beauty of a typo!
Civility? It's easy to be "civil and tolerant" when you have no one on your show other than people who agree with you 1000%. When you have an amen chorus as your guest roster, civility and tolerance aren't exactly taxed.
Someone, PLEASE tell me this is a joke. It's too early in the week to have to endure so much stupidity.
He has the blood of many fine young warriors on his filthy hands due to his lies and personal agenda.
"The award recognizes individuals whose actions have embodied the values of civility, tolerance, diversity and cooperation in the advancement of public dialogue and public policy on traditionally controversial and divisive issues."
What a pile!.....just another liberal scratch my ass and I'll scratch yours award!.....
Rachel MadDog?
They call it THE SNARK ***********
Looks something like that....
Congratulations, Rachel...
If the shoe fits...
Have a nice day!
The Heinrich Himler Friends of Israel Award...
I understand that she is a lesbian. That might explain why she wants to look like a male.
It does make sense, for MSNBC. Compared to Keith "Worst Person In the Word", Maddow is civil.
Speechless. The world is insane.

Okay.. I was watching my nephew this weekend and what a stubborn little guy he was being.. I gave him water to drink with every meal I fed him, like his mother told me to do, and he absolutely refused to drink it.. I tried to get him to drink it all weekend long but nothing seemed to work.. Does anyone have suggestions for trying to change a child's eating habits? Any help would be much appreciated!
No announcement yet.
Won't drink water..

Has this been a battle at home? That is, has the issue of drinking water turned into a battle of wills between parent & child? If that's the case, backing off might be the best approach for now.
Why is drinking water--specifically--an issue? Is he dehydrated? Is he drinking too much of something else, like juice? How old is he, and what does he usually drink?
If his mom would like him to drink more water, a few things come to mind:
-try it at other times than meal time...snacks, playtime, car rides; just have a water bottle around for when he gets thirsty
-put in ice cubes
-have a "fancy" water cup or glass. When we have water with meals, my son likes stemware!
-add a twisty straw or other straw for fun
But it might help to, as Alfie Kohn says, "rethink the request" and find a way to take the battle out of it.

Why is drinking water--specifically--an issue? Is he dehydrated?
Since you are only an occasional caretaker, I wonder what effect you would have, or are you asking on behalf of the parents?
I babysit a 2yr old a few days a week and he refuses to drink water also. His parents send him with a sippy cup full of juice everyday and after that is gone he knows only water is left. If you watch your nephew a lot, you can let him know that your house is a water drinking house only. I don't think that is an unreasonable request, but you can't force him to drink it. He will drink water when he is thirsty enough!

I've been thinking about this (the water issue) myself lately. We have a 2 juice cup rule at my house and once she goes thru 2 sippy cups of juice, it is milk or water.
My DD will drink water w/o an issue, same with milk, though she definitely prefers juice if we let her.
Sometimes though...she just doesn't want plain water and I have a hard time trying to force it when I occasionally will have Crystal Light or something like that myself. It is the sugar that I have a problem with, and as long as she is not having sugar or a sugar substitute all day long, I give in and let her have the 'lemonade' when she asks. (this may be only 1x or 2x a week at most).
I think the idea of serving your nephew water in a cool glass w/ a crazy straw is an excellent idea. I also know that ice cubes area big hit w/ my DD.
Try giving the little guy Wattah.. My kids love the stuff and there is no sugar!.. www.drinkwataah.com/
At that age we had a lot of success with herbal tea. I bought the biggest cheapest box of fruity herbal tea I could find. It was the kind with individually wrapped bags. Great delight was had and much time was spent in selecting the flavour. Not to mention the fun of dunking the bag in and out of the lukewarm water!

The tendons connect muscle to bone and often connect near a joint. Tendinopathy is an injury to the tendon, causing pain, inflammation, and limited movement. Tendinopathy may be:
There are several tendons in the shoulder. They are attached to muscles of the rotator cuff and the biceps muscle of the arm.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Tendinopathy is generally caused by overuse of a muscle and tendon. Over time, the strain on the tendon causes the structure of the tendon to change.
Shoulder tendons are overused most often with:
Shoulder tendinopathy may also be caused by:
Shoulder tendinopathy is more common in people 30 years and older. Other factors that may increase your chance of shoulder tendinopathy include:
Symptoms develop gradually over time. Pain usually slowly increases with use.
Tendinopathy may cause:
You will be asked about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. Your doctor will check tender areas. Your shoulder range of motion, and muscle strength will also be checked.
Imaging tests used to evaluate your shoulder and surrounding structures may include:
Arthroscopy is done with an instrument with a long tube and miniature camera on the end. Repairs or corrections can be made while the doctor evaluates the shoulder joint.
Bursitis can cause similar pain symptoms. Your doctor may inject an anesthetic medication. If the pain goes away, it may suggest bursitis not tendinopathy.
Tendinopathy and the associated pain may take months to resolve. It can be frustrating, but it is important to follow through with recommended treatment. Treatments include:
Avoid activities that cause shoulder pain.
Use an ice pack to help control pain and swelling, It may help during the first 24-48 hours after injury or after exercise. Protect your skin by placing a towel between the ice pack and your skin
After a few days, heat may help decrease stiffness. Check with a doctor or therapist before using heat the first time. Protect your skin by placing a towel between the heat source and your skin.
Shoulder tendinopathy can be treated with:
Persistent or severe pain may need further treatment. Your doctor may inject a steroid into the area. It can temporarily relieve pain. However, frequent injections can damage the tendon.
Rehabilitation will help you regain strength and range of motion in your shoulder. It will also help you prevent future injuries. Rehabilitation may include:
Severe injuries may require surgery to repair the tendon. The type of surgery will depend on the specific injuries.

Lothar's War
Lothar's War - 0.1
Jonathan Fries (jonyfries)
Lothar's War has similar game play to a tactical RPG, minus the leveling up of units. Everything in the game I did myself, art, sound effects, as well as programming. I have set it up so that you can define the data path in the options.ini, so the game can be reskinned. This is more or less a tech demo of the game I'm working on Lothar's War. Most of the game mechanics are in place and I am finishing polish elements of the combat. I want to start on the campaign in the next couple of weeks after I have finished the combat. I would like any and all feedback on the game mechanics, balance and the user experience.
This is the first beta release of Lothar's War. All of the basic game mechanics are now in place. The appearance of the UI has been improved, AI now more appropriately uses and reacts to unit abilities.

Bills Beat Blog

Sources: Beckham, Jr. in serious consideration for Bills at 9
by Joe Buscaglia
posted May 8 2014 11:48AM
The 2014 NFL Draft will be here in just a few hours, and the buzz is building around the Buffalo Bills' selection at ninth overall. After speaking with some people around the league, there are a few more layers to add on to what the Bills' draft plans might be.
One of the hottest names in the draft right now is LSU wide receiver Odell Beckham, Jr., and one of the biggest proponents of his talents are indeed the Bills. According to league sources, Beckham, Jr. is a player Buffalo is very serious about taking with their ninth overall pick in the event a board plays out a certain way.
If South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, Auburn offensive tackle Greg Robinson, Clemson wide receiver Sammy Watkins and Texas A&M offensive tackle Jake Matthews are all off the board as expected, the Bills will take a long, hard look at both Beckham, Jr. and North Carolina tight end Eric Ebron and debate the merits of drafting one versus the other when it gets to their selection, according to sources.
In that scenario, the Bills would also try and feel out a trade down, but very well could be stuck there at ninth overall. If they stay with the pick and both players are on the board and the aforementioned four are all selected, the decision will come down to one of those two according to a source. If they could induce a trade down, Notre Dame offensive tackle Zack Martin remains a potential target.
The interest in Beckham, Jr., which was first pointed out by Peter King of Sports Illustrated, is very real. In fact, there is even some thought that the LSU wideout is the second wide receiver on the Bills' board, behind only Watkins and ahead of Texas A&M wide receiver Mike Evans. The reasoning behind that is the versatility that both Watkins and Beckham, Jr. would bring to the Bills offense, whereas Evans is more of an outside receiver.
There also has been increased talk that the Bills are interested in the first or second overall selections to take Jadeveon Clowney or Greg Robinson. After hearing throughout the process when the rumor first started in March that the Bills actually wouldn't do a trade like that for one of those players, those same sentiments were once again reaffirmed. Sources to WGR have said that a trade up to that level is not expected, and would not be for one of those two players.
However, a trade up the order is not out of line if one player in particular falls down the order. Sammy Watkins continues to be the apple of their eye, and if he falls in the area of the fourth or fifth pick, the Bills will look into seeing what it takes to move up to secure his services according to a source. The problem with that is there will likely be many suitors, so much so that Cleveland (4) or Oakland (5) can auction the pick off to the highest bidder if they so choose.
The other name to not rule out in a potential trade up is Jake Matthews, but the Bills would likely have less motivation to move up that far to secure his services than they would for Watkins. If Matthews is on the board at nine, though, expect him to be the selection.
If the Bills do end up with a receiver in the first round of the draft, Buffalo will then likely look to immediately see what they can get for wide receiver Stevie Johnson in terms of draft picks, according to sources. With his increasing cap number, it isn't likely that Johnson stays on with the Bills past this season, meaning the drafting of a receiver would likely fast forward the clock on his potential departure from the team.
The Bills hold the ninth overall pick in tonight's draft. It all begins at 8 pm, with live coverage and pick analysis on WGR Sports Radio 550.

Comments: This is the best composite stick I've played with. Reasonable cost and you can actually "feel" the puck. Stick has held up well over two seasons of hockey with lots of hacks and stick lifts.
From: Brad, Columbus, MT
Comments: I purchased this stick since it was on sale and I had very good luck with the previous version (the gray and red graphics). This particular stick came with an unusual vibration right out of the box and only got worse after one game. Unless you can put your hands on this stick at a retail store first be aware of this issue. Thank goodness for the warranty. Easton reps will help you when you call for a return.
From: BH, ME
Comments: Love this stick. Been using it for ball and ice hockey and it's low kick point has been amazing at getting shots off quickly. Durable too. Haven't had any issues like I used to with some of the stealths and durability.
From: Elysia, Ottawa, Canada

Jane Norris Welcome to FedCentral brought to you by Deloitte, a program where executives and federal government leaders talk about the issues and initiatives that are making a real impact on the business of government today, to help government help America. Today, we're talking about risk management and what federal leaders need to know to implement an enterprise risk management program. As agencies are struggling with their own set of unique challenges and issues, the agency leaders are thinking more strategically about finding innovative ways to run their organizations more effectively. So how can agency leaders get in front of risk before they become a news item, something that is sometimes good and sometimes is not so positive, especially for federal agencies?
Today, we talk about this issue with Mark Carey and Debbie Fletcher of Deloitte and Touche, LLP, and thank you both for joining us today.
Mark Carey Thank you.
Jane Norris Nice to see you. Mark Carey is currently a partner in the federal market leader of the government's regulatory and risk strategies practice at Deloitte and Touche, LLP. He has more than 17 years of risk management and compliance experience and Debbie Fletcher is a principal and business risk services leader for Deloitte's federal audited enterprise risk services practice at Deloitte and Touche, LLP. She's also been recently appointed as a global public sector enterprise risk services leader where she'll help with global industry and sector strategies. Debbie has more than 25 years of experience with financial and risk management disciplines.
So welcome to both of you, and let's start with you, Debbie. Let talk a little bit about risk management and what federal agencies need to know about the climate that requires more risk strategies.
Debbie Fletcher Well, there's a variety of programmatic challenges that the federal leaders have always faced and to some degree, it's likely they've been managing some risks, intentionally or unintentionally. However, the challenges are becoming more complex and the changes are happening at a greater pace. Federal leaders are finding the need to be more in front of these challenges with this less predictable future using a more robust and implementable approach to risk management will certainly help. Even at the recent federal enterprise risk management summit, several government leaders spoke about how risk management will become fundamental to how the government operates.
For example, this'll apply to the approach of making funding decisions. Leaders will want a more thoughtful and systematic approach of risk and how these risks could impact accomplishing critical mission objectives. Agencies and programs that can more clearly connect their budget requests with risk will do better as they face these looming budget cuts.
Mark Carey And Debbie, I remember at that conference where some people were talking about the fact that as people do better in the budgeting process that other agencies will see that and then risk will become even more of a mainstream topic in the future and in the subsequent budget cycles.
Jane Norris So talk about risk. I mean, just talk about it as a discipline. What is it? What does it mean to federal agencies?
Mark Carey Sure, well, I mean, the concept of risk goes back a long time, and really at the very core, you're talking about the likelihood and consequence of some type of event that would have an adverse effect on your agency, on your department, your program, and what does that mean? What's a consequence? Well, we could think about the damage to the reputation of the agency, to the leaders within that agency. You can think about financial losses or additional expenditures that were not planned for in the budgeting process, or even in many cases in the federal government, you can think about the fact that lives are put at risk when things go wrong and when mistakes are made in the federal government.
Jane Norris All right, those have serious consequences and that is a sort of a strategic plan, then, that agencies sort of set out for themselves based on you know, what might work or what won't work. So does it have a name? It's I believe enterprise risk management is the term? Explain that. Explain what that is.
Debbie Fletcher Yes, enterprise risk management or what we call an ERM is a systematic way to understand and mitigate the greatest risk that could impact the ability of an entire organization, a department, an agency, or even a program to accomplish its mission. So at the highest level, the risk management process is straightforward. There's four parts – simply identify the risk; to assess and measure risk, three, control and manage risk; and four, monitor and report the risk. However, when actually using this risk management process, there are many challenges that make it harder than it sounds to actually implement and operate effectively.
Mark Carey And some of those challenges, Debbie, come from the fact that you're trying to manage a whole portfolio or a whole bucket of risk across the entire department and there're different types of risks. They all have their own ways of fbeing defined and being managed, so if you're going to try to manage that portfolio, manage that group of risk, how do you do that consistently across your entire organization, and that's kind of where the Genesis that was the start of this term enterprise risk management. How do we pull it together? Instead of thinking about each risk by itself, how do we pull it together across your entire program?
Jane Norris So is this a relatively new concept for federal agencies?
Mark Carey It is relatively new. It's relatively new in the private sector, as well. It's really only been the last 20 or so years where people have started to think hey, let's think about risk in a more holistic way. It's almost like the evolution of strategy. If you go back years before when strategy started to become a common business topic or approach to managing and getting priorities on what has to go right. Enterprise risk management is almost the flip side of that coin. It's like the process of what do we have to do to make sure things don't make mistakes or lose out on opportunities to deliver services based on adverse events.
Jane Norris So give us some examples of key risk issues that federal agencies might face, Mark.
Mark Carey Well, you know, really does go across a wide range of things. Every two years, GAO issues the high risk report and this past year, I think there were over 30 programs that were listed in that report, but if you step back and look at what are the themes that emerge? What are some of the common risk you find in the federal government space? You have things like management effectiveness, program integrity, the fraud – and fraud way and abuse related issues. You have things related to failures to protect the safety and security of the public. Acquisition risk is another key topic. So those are some of the things that emerge when you look at it across a federal government.
Jane Norris So is it more like a program management issue? Is that kind of what risk management is?

Wooo new thread!
I'm at 16 with my Rogue, and 24 with my Hunter. Convince me to continue, as my will to level up new peoples this close to Cataclysm is splitting me in two!
On one side, I need to be high level to see the new, pretty content!
On the flipside, though, I want to see what all-torn-up Azeroth/starter zones look like!
My girlfriend and I are considering leveling some Alliance characters so our Worgen have a nice, comfy home with heirlooms come Cataclysm. We wouldn't mind some raiding on the side in the meantime if you guys aren't too full. Are there any classes or specs you're in particular need of, or you already have tons of? I'm not sure what we want to level yet.

"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated."
– Mahatma Gandhi
"Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened."
– Anatole France
"Happiness is a warm puppy."
– Charles M. Schulz
When I was a feature writer at the Vicksburg Post, I was sent one morning to do a story on the animal shelter. Since I took my own pictures for most of my stories, I went alone.
From the moment I arrived and began looking into the eyes of the dogs and cats, I cried. Only a little at first, so I could easily pass it off as allergies.
But, before I finished interviewing the manager, I had put on my shades to hide my puffy eyes and was apologizing through sobs for my lack of professionalism.
I couldn't stop my tears any more than I could have stopped caring personally about the story I was doing. My heart is not made that way.
It's the same reason I change channels ever so quickly each time I hear Sarah McLachlan singing and know the heart-breaking pictures of abused or homeless animals will follow.
I tell myself that I'm doing my part to love and care for the three dogs who live with me, but sometimes it just doesn't seem to be enough.
When my friend and co-worker Emily LeCoz left Tupelo recently to work in Jackson, I agreed to take on as part of my Journal duties the pet of the week feature that appears in the Sunday Living section and Lee County Neighbors each week.
Emily had done an extraordinary job on pets of the week for a long time. I knew I had large shoes to fill.
My foremost fear? My feelings. I did not want to walk into the Tupelo-Lee Humane Society each week and have to hide my tears.
Instead, I have found the outing each week to be one of joy.
If you haven't visited the shelter, you should make it a point to do so.
What you'll find is a place often filled beyond capacity with abandoned or stray dogs and cats of every age and every size.
You'll also find a place that's clean and welcoming, and employees who, though always busy, will take the time to stop what they are doing to help answer questions.
I've had ample opportunity to ask each shelter staffer if they love animals, but the question seems silly somehow. I can't imagine anyone who does not adore animals wanting to work at the shelter surrounded by four-legged, furry friends on a daily basis. I would make no sense.
Tears have not been an issue for me in the weeks since I've been making my Thursday visits to the shelter. Nor do I leave sad with my heart breaking.
The only problem on which I've had to continue to work is leaving the shelter each week without taking home another animal to add to my menagerie of three.
So far, I've walked out of the shelter alone.
But I leave with high hopes that when I check in the following week, I'll happily hear stories of homeless animals now having forever homes.
And that's what it's all about.

On the morning of Jan. 28 there was an accident at the Nielson Construction yard just north of Huntington. Two workers, Jakob Killian and Mark Mortensen were working to thaw a valve on a water truck. They were using a weed burner to thaw the valve. The propane burner ignited the residue within the water truck and an explosion resulted. The water truck had been used recently to haul waste water from gas wells and reportedly left a methane gas residue on the walls of the water tank.
Killian was thrown approximately 30 feet by the explosion landing on the back of his head and he was burned over 18 percent of his body. He also suffered from head fractures. He was taken to Castleview Hospital and then taken by ambulance to a hospital in Northern Utah where he is expected to make a full recovery. The road through Spanish Fork Canyon was closed just after Killian was taken through. Reports on Friday indicated Killian would soon be moved from intensive care. His face is swollen and bruised, but scarring is expected to be at a minimum reported the doctors.
Mortensen was treated and released later that day at a local medical clinic.
Mortensen was the one who immediately called 911 to report the accident to the Emery County dispatch.

Skip to comments.Unique gold figurine of naked woman found in Denmark
Posted on 06/15/2013 10:14:02 AM PDT by SunkenCiv
A small figurine depicting a slim, naked woman was recently found in a Danish field. Strangely, this is the fifth in a series of tiny golden human figurines found recently in the area...
The small, heavily arched figurine is only 4.2 cm tall and weighs 3 grams, has many details and bears the mark of quality craftsmanship.
Stretched arms and sagging breasts
The woman has a long and slender body, which may have been made out of a thin bar of gold. The head is elongated with a protruding jaw and incised hair. The breasts are sagging and below both shoulders are notches, indicating that her arms have been tied around her body.
The arms are stretched and the thumbs are pressed against one another, while the other fingers are facing downwards. On the stomach is a more clearly incised belt decorated with a zig-zag pattern, and the private parts are clearly visible between the short and thin legs...
Remarkably, the back side has ten prominent teeth, something that has never been seen before.
Naked female figurines are a rarity in Nordic Iron Age art, where male figurines dominated...
The golden woman is the fifth in a series of small, golden human figurines from the Smørenge field on Bornholm. The first four are all believed to depict men, while there is no doubt about the gender of the last addition to the series.
The first figurine was found in the spring of 2009, together with a number of other finds, including several gold-foil figures, while the next three appeared in spring 2012.
Common to all the five figurines is that the heads are plastically formed, but otherwise there is a great deal of variation.

To all -- please ping me to other topics which are appropriate for the GGG list.
The first one on the left looks like Gumby.
Voo Doo dolls for mos mom! ;-)
Hey that first one looks like Gumby. :)
"That doesn't look anything like me."
The work of "quality" craftsmanship?
Probably used for ceremonial purposes.
If you didn't have TV or movies or such....you more or less invented your own evening entertainment. There were probably sixty different ceremonies throughout the year, for just about everything under the sun.
What's not to like about Gumby?
"You know, if I were a single man, I might ask that gold figurine out.
That's a good-looking gold figurine."
Normally I like ancient artifacts, but these are so ugly that I want to melt them down and make the gold into something beautiful!
What makes anyone think that sex toys are a modern invention?
Makes sense. TV was probably 'scarce' back then, anyway.
Eddie, is that you?
I liked Gumby. Clay-mation animation was in its infancy, back then, but he was entertaining.
"Whats not to like about Gumby?"
The whole claymation thing freaked me out as a little kid. I was born in '46. I knew stuff didn't move the way claymation made them move.
One more descriptor: "The face is stretched tighter than Buddy Rich's snaredrum".
Looks like functional adornment to me. A barrette, or part of a clasp to secure clothing. The notches across the arms of the figurine would serve to keep cordage in place.
I'd steal it.
Interesting; Compare these to the work of the modern ceramic artist Isamu Moguchi
or "Big Boy and Small Child"
Same sort of rough unfinished feel. The Goldsmith was probably working with a limited number of tools; A chisel and file.
Laz would hit it......
Perhaps the reason for the "Teeth" on the back of the Female figure is that it was used as a Barrette, something to hold hair. It would also explain the notch in the upper arm/shoulder area.
A wire or cord or spring was looped around the shoulder notch, hair was gathered under the toothed back, the cord was passed around the hair and fastened to the legs somehow. It would also explain the arch, which would allow it to confirm to the curvature of the wearer's head.
Gumby gave my son a lot of entertainment; in fact, every once in a while, I'll send him a new Gumby!
Really bad ancient sculptor/artist or an early Picasso type weirdo.
I understood Claymation for what it was. But then, I spent most of my childhood summers and weekends at the movies!
Today's pixelated movies are the answer to animated cartoons and claymation figures.
Good ol' Gumby. Good for you & your Son.
I used to have a bottle opener that looked like that.
Gumby is a constant. Thanks for the wishes...I think the next Gumby I buy, I will keep! LOL!
I think you nailed it. I think it is part of a hair adornment/barrette, with cord, wire, or a leather thong used to secure the hair. The teeth would keep it from slipping easily and falling off, a cord could have been tied around the neck and feet, or places in between to secure it.
Ouch! Beat me to it! Should have checked "last" before posting.
And the other figures? The lost gold chess pieces of Aesir after the battle with the sons of Surt that ended the last age.... (Ragnarok - Poetic Edda, I recall) and fell in some farmers field (?) Well...maybe not.
It was probably the same tired stories and too many lame commercials selling you a bunch of useless poorly made crap even then.
That SOB again.When he finally goes to hell,the first words out of his mouth when confronted by Satan will be,"and is there a Mrs.Satan?"
If our Karma still requires more repayment, we may be having a really out of control lecher in our face daily after 16.
Looks like SNL's 'Cougar Barbie".
Fascinating stuff! Thanks, eh?
At the risk of being totally without imagination-I think that is a woman's hair ornament, like maybe a primitive ponytail clip. The "teeth" on the back would hold it in place, and the grooves on the shoulders and legs are there to wrap a ribbon or piece of rawhide around to hold the clip in place in the hair.
If it is a hair ornament, not much has changed since the 6th century AD-I bought a cloisonné one in the shape of a lizard some years ago at a craft market in southern New Mexico-works just like that Danish one, except it has an elastic band that goes around the grooves to hold it in place in the hair...
They are all Guilty. Series. This is Hugh!
Heh. Yeah.
And as usual, the "quality" craftsmanship looks like something made by a deranged 12 year old.
These are small pieces, which follows from the era (gold supply was small in that area; these may have been made from a coin or two each), and appear to have been made via some kind of half-assed version of the lost wax process, then worked.
I say melt them down and try again for some craftsmanship. A kindergardener could show more talent than whoever made those....
But would you hit it?

I'm expecting next year's decorations to look better. I want to have the living room painted in 2012. I can't do it myself because of my shoulder pain. So when I save up some money, I'll call our painter.
I'm not taking a lot of pictures this year because I hate the condition of the walls. I don't want to remember how badly they look.

Hot Bootie
"I've seen this pair of bootie for a while and when I saw it on sale for only $34, I finally made up my mind and bought it. I received it a couple of days ago and haven't actually worn it but let me just it is a hot pair of boots!! I love it but prefer wearing it with the laces tucked in. I got it in an 8.5 since that was the only size available, i normally wear size 8. Definitely consider getting a half size up because the 8.5 fit my feet perfect. When I tried on the shoe, I noticed that it definitely has a little bit of a higher arch, so probably not the best choice of shoe especially if you walk a lot. But it has good gripping and I love the brown version more than the black one."

Love them!!
"I just bought these boots and I absolutely love them so far! I was waiting for a cute pair of booties to wear this fall and I stumbled upon these babies. I tried them on as soon as they arrived and I cannot wait to rock them! They are pretty true to size. I have a wide foot and I just cannot wear them with thick socks. They also made my feet look smaller which I love (I wear a 10)!!"

Cute and comfoy!
"Perfect for Spring and instantly wearable! Only drawback is that I wished these were made in 1/2 sizes as well. I typically wear 7.5 in sock-less, closed toe, closed heel shoes. The 8 is a tad looser than I prefer, but my foot is not slipping out completely. Guessing size shouldn't be an issue if I wear a thin sock or once the weather warms and the foot swells a bit from wear."

Comments: Purchased these for my two boys who are taking skating lessons and eventually playing hockey. The boy's are 5 1/2 and 3 3/4 in age and the skates are just perfect for beginning skating. They are reminiscent of the "molded boot" ice skates that even the pro's in the NHL were wearing in the mid to late 70's. The boot provides a lot of ankle support which is very helpful for people that are beginning to skate, like my children. Also, they are very easy for the parent/child to put on as there are no laces, just buckles like you would find on a ski boot. It's easy on my back for me to put the skates on my children and easier for children as they are not so adept at tying laces yet. Additionally, the boots expand so you will get lot of bang for your buck with those quick growing little feet. I highly recommend these for introducing your children to the world of skating. Transaction with icewarehouse was smooth and they were friendly and helpful on phone. Skates arrived quickly in the mail as well.
