Mike... Are the Safeties we are looking at getting really all that much faster than SAMMY KNIGHT? I'm talking about Lassiter , Jones and Flowers. I looked up each profile and both Flowers and Jones only have 4 INT's to their name in their whole career while Sammy has 28.
Just how slow is knight compared to most safeties in the League, and is it THAT big of a crutch to require letting one of, if not THE most prolific big-play Safety in the NFL get away without an offer?
FROM: Mike Detillier
TO: Cliff Johnson
Cliff, I really think the decision to let Sammy Knight test the free agency market had little to do with his speed. Early on, it looked as though Sammy's money demands were not in line in what the Saints were willing to offer and to be honest the football world has changed. The big ticket money players are the safeties, who can line-up one-on-one in pass coverage assignments and that is not what Sammy does best.
Sammy is a real good centerfield safety in pass coverage and he is a very good run defender. He, throughout his career has never been fast, but he has relied more on his football instincts and his smarts.
His outright foot speed is below league average.
I think the Saints feel as though if they will pay big dollars to a safety, they will pay one with better coverage skills than Sammy. In an ideal world, I would have liked to see the Saints keep Knight at strong safety and sign a speedier, much better cover man at free safety.
I believe the Saints and Jim Haslett felt as though they did not want to pay two high priced safeties and they allowed Knight to leave.
This is a personal comment on my part , but I believe that this coaching staff has soured a bit on Knight, just like they did on La'Roi Glover. I know they will not admit it, but I have a feeling they did and this is why they didn't make a big push to re-sign him, along with his contract demands.
I agree with you, Sammy Knight was a hell of a player for this team and a total "team" type player, but this organization made the decision not to try and give him the money he wanted and they are looking elsewhere. Let me say this it will take one heck of a player to fill his moccasins.
The intrigue on this story is that no team so far, has made a big contract offer to Sammy Knight and that is very surprising, when you look at his credentials.

Thanks as always for what you do for the site. Can't wait to get my hands on your book, I sent my payment in 3 months ago! Mine was the first check you got!!
My question is......do you think the Saints are "hoarding" cap dollars because of some guys they are very interested in come June 1 cuts? I can't think of any other reason why they have not been more aggressive in FA. If so, who do you think the Saints will have their eyes on?
FROM: Mike Detillier
TO: WeatherNLU
WeatherNLU, I appreciate the nice comments and hope you enjoy the book.
Hopefully some of the money savings will go to Joe Horn and to sign him long term. I believe the Saints will sign two players before the draft, at safety and along the defensive line.
The June 1st date always has an intriguing player or two, but it normally doesn't dump a host of really good players on the market.
One player to watch soon is Miami Dolphins restricted strong safety Arturo Freeman. I have a feeling the Saints will try and work out a deal with him very soon.
Arturo was regarded as one of top players in college football as a junior before he tore up his knee in 1998. He had a good 1999 season, but some teams were scared off due to the injury. Before the knee injury most people, including myself, thought he was a 1st round pick.
Freeman is a good athlete, who could play both free and strong safety, and he has very good range out on the field. Arturo is a real strong hitter and a very physical player also. He is a bit too aggressive at times and he will get out of position, but I like his style of play and he is known as a real tough guy. For a fifth round pick, I would make that move.
To be honest, I know he has played strong safety, but I always thought he was a more natural free safety.
I will be honest with you that I have been wondering that same thought myself about the money coffers being filled and I have not come up with a real good answer.

Hey Mike,
1. What is going on with Horn's contract right now and what is the hold-up with a new one? Will the Saints pay him 6 million a year?
2. What will happen with W.Williams, Pathon, Hand, Smith, and Bellamy this year in relation to their cap number with the Saints?
3. Do you think Tebucky Jones is worth more than a 3rd round pick? Is he the best option at Safety left out there?
Thanks again and looking forward to your draft book!!
FROM: Mike Detillier
TO: Jackavelli
Albert it's interesting to say that there has not been much chatter from Joe Horn about a new deal. I would think if there was no progress being made, you would have heard form Horn by now. I have heard nothing to believe that the deal is close to being done, but if there was not progress I am sure Horn and his agent would have let everybody know by now. I feel a little more confident today than say back a few months that this team will get a new deal done with Joe , but again it is a hefty deal and I am sure he is throwing out the figures given to David Boston, Peerless Price and Laverenaues Coles and saying I have put up better numbers than any of those guys and he would be dead-on right.
I still believe there will be some sticky days ahead for Joe and the Saints to come to an agreement, but to be honest I am more opportunistic today than say back in November, that a deal will be done.
The Saints still have plenty money under the cap and so some of those matters may take place later and I really couldn't answer it, not being involved in what happens in negotiations. I think with Wally Williams, the biggest issue is do you want to have him as a high paid back-up behind LeCharles Bentley and Kendyl Jacox? Also if Jerry Fontenot does not return Wally Williams becomes a very valuable reserve guard and center.
On Norman Hand I personally think he will not be back. I think they are buying time until, June to see how well he can get his weight down and etc., but because of his play the past two seasons I can't see him returning. If you wait until after June 1st, you can split up the remaining signing bonus figure.
I don't think anything will happen with Jerome Pathon's deal. He just signed on last season.
I believe the Saints want Darrin Smith back in a "reserve" role basis. At this stage I think he would be very open to that opportunity. I would like the team to move him inside and let the young kids play outside.
In my opinion the Saints should cut loose Jay Bellamy. He has lost a lot of his skills as a football player and I would not bring him back. His cap number is low and it fits well, but his play has been downhill the past 2 seasons and the Saints need to bring in some youth and speed at safety. I do believe they will sign a veteran safety before the draft, but if it were me, I would cut loose Jay Bellamy.
Tebucky Jones is the best option, but I would not pay more than a 3rd round pick to acquire him. He is overvalued at anything more. This is one issue I am 100% in agreement with the Saints on. He is a good solid player, but he has not been anything special. If the Pats are willing to deal him for a 3rd rounder, that would be OK, with me, but nothing more than that. Jacksonville's Donovan Darius is really a better player than Tebucky, but he is a strong safety and not a free safety. He recently signed a one-year deal with Jacksonville.
Kwamie Lassiter is still an option, but he has to come down off his high price. He is not worth $3 million dollars a season and he has really one good year left.
I really like Arturo Freeman from Miami and I hope this team makes a play for him.
Albert, thanks for the nice words and I Hope you enjoy the book.

What do you think of the saints picking up T.J. Slaughter from the Jags. He is not a big name but a solid weakside linebacker... and Adalius Thomas a DE with the Ravens a good pass rusher. They are both restricted free agents.
FROM: Mike Detillier
TO: Clb
Clb, I like T.J. Slaughter, but more in the middle than outside. With the Jaguars signing Mike Peterson, that would be the spot for him. I like his aggressive play and he is a "lights-out" hitter and a good athlete. I know he is restricted and so you would have to give up a 3rd round pick to acquire him. To be honest a couple of us in the draft business so to speak, have thought about would may happen to him, but I have heard nothing about the Saints having an interest in him at the present time. It would be well worth some thought process though, because I like his style of play and remember that Rick Mueller helped to select him. He can play both spots and he is a very tough and very instinctive player. I would like to see him play more of a "power" type game and take on blockers better, but he is a good solid player. I think you are the 1st one here to being him up and it's a good question.
I don't think the Saints care too much for Adalius Thomas. Thomas, when he came out was a highly thought of player, but he has been a one-dimensional pass rush specialist. When he came out I spoke to Randy Mueller, who went and along with Jim Haslett saw his workout, but he told me that while he thought plenty of a talent, he questioned his motor and how he would take downs off. Now, it would cost you just a 6th round pick to acquire him, but I have a feeling the Saints based off what Randy told me that they would pass on him. Good questions.

Mike I have read a lot on James Allen, Mel Mitchell, and Sedrick Hodge and I feel they will hold their own this upcoming season. Do you see these three players stepping up and playing up to the expectations that the coaching staff has for them? Can you give me a little analysis of each player? GOOOOOO Hodge!
FROM: Mike Detillier
TO: Major Rogers
OK, Rog-Joe,
James Allen is a very fast, very athletic OLB., who plays the game with a reckless attitude and he can cover a lot of ground out on the field. He has a very quick burst off the snap and he is a solid pass rusher. In college , he was considered a bit of a late reactor to what is breaking down in front of him and he needed to improve his recognition skills, but once he saw what was happening he got there in a hurry and he was a real sticker. His weaknesses were that he normally would run around blocks rather than taking people on and he had some back problems. He has worked hard to improve his overall strength and he should be much better taking blockers on. He is a talented player, but he will need plenty of rep time to further advance his skills.
Mel Mitchell is a tough, strong, strong safety, who plays the run well. He has above average foot speed, but he has to adjust better to the overall speed in the NFL and develop into a quick study player. He does not seem to be the type player that picks things up quickly and he needs to go through repetitions a host of times, before he gets it down. He is very athletic and very strong, but his instincts, especially in coverage situations are not where they need to be. I think the Saints will give him every opportunity to be their starting strong safety, but expect him to also make a number of mistakes early on, in play recognition.
Sedrick Hodge is a player that I really expected to play strong in 2002, but he just didn't. He was around a lot of plays, but he just wasn't the guy making them. He seemed to be thinking more than just going all-out and making plays. That may just be the maturing of a young player, but it seemed to bother him last year. He has all the skills to be a very good player, and with the exception of not real god taking on and defeating blocks at the point of attack, he has the physical skills. He still struggles with this aspect, but he is so athletic, you would expect him to be more of a playmaker. He's a smart player and a hard worker, but he struggled to me, assignment wise.
I am hoping he will be less of a thinker and more of an all-out "sick'em" type player this team needs at linebacker. He has the skills and athletic ability to be a very good strong-side LB, but he just seemed to be a step out of line last year.

Hey Mike, I would like to start off by saying you are the hardest working man in the business and a pleasure to talk to. Keep up the great work!
First, I'd like to point out the history behind the Saints' 3rd round choice they received from K.C. (please correct me if I'm wrong.)
In 1986 the Saints made a trade with the Colts, dropping two spots from the 4th pick to 6th overall. The Colts selected Alabama defensive lineman Jon Hand and the Saints picked OT Jim Dombrowski and an extra pick in the third round. That 3rd round selection became Pat Swilling.
After an All-Pro career with the Saints Swilling was traded to Detroit in 1993 for a first and a fourth rounder - William Roaf and FB Lorenzo Neal (both were pro-bowlers this year.)
Last year Roaf was traded to the Chiefs for what became a 3rd rounder.
Have you ever seen anything like this happen before? To drop down only two spots 17 years ago and still have something to show for it.
Anyway, I would also like to know what the Saints would have to give up pick-wise to move up into the latter part of the top ten, or what they could get if the traded down from 17 or 18?
Thanks again! I can't wait to get my 'football bible' known as the M&D Draft Report. More GM's should do the same!
FROM: Mike Detillier
Thanks Kipp , I appreciate the kind comments. You got to get me a commercial gig, just kidding!!
Those two deals will go down as two of the very best this football club ever made. Ironically the Dombrowski/Swilling for Jon Hand was one of Jim Finks' first moves and his trade of Swilling for Roaf /L. Neal was really one of the very lasts.
You are right that pick has finally come full circle.
You don't see that much life in a deal. Hopefully this regime will hit on that 3rd round pick.
Kipp, while I feel as though the Saints will try and move up, it will be difficult. Most teams picking in the top 7 to 9 picks don't want to drop to 17 or 18 to pick. They have used up most of their time looking at the top 12 players and none of those are there, so it's a big adjustment. The farther you move back the more it costs.
Consider the fact that last season the Kansas City Chiefs picking (8th overall), sent their 1st round pick and their 3rd round pick in 2002, along with a 6th round pick in the 2003 draft to Dallas to move up 2 slots in the 1st round (6th overall), I don't see it happening. It would be too costly and it's not worth it. While I think they would love to move up, I see them staying with slots 17 and 18.
I could see them maybe trading one of those picks down, especially if someone really was crazy for a player and you could pick up another high pick. You really don't know that up until draft time, but I see this more as a prospect than dealing up.
Take Care.

Hi, Mike
Your are the very best.
I love your insight into the Saint's thinking and strategy. You are so right on the mark many, many times. You are really the best draft guru/strategist I have ever heard.
My first question for you is what were your thoughts on the late Mr. Finks ideology about always drafting the big guys on the line first and skill players later on?
I really believe this a good strategy for any draft that Mr. Finks used. He added his big line people early in the draft and got the so called skill positions in the later rounds. That means drafting along the offensive/defensive lines in the first two rounds. Those top notch lineman come off the board early and often. I don't think this draft will be any different. If we added along those lines with our first three picks we could secure some great talent and solidify trouble spots. I believe we should stay in our current slots in the draft and see who falls into our laps. It happens so many times every year (Howard, Grant, McAllister,etc..).
Also, Mike who is most likely to make a reach that no one expects in this years draft is it the Cincinnati Bengals are someone else.
FROM: Mike Detillier
Clint, I certainly appreciate the really kind comments.
On Jim Finks , I had tremendous respect for him and we had a couple of very long talks about his philosophy, but I really believe in the free agency world, he would have changed-up his philososohy a bit.
You need to fill needs sometimes and while the philosophy of drafting big men and then filling in with skill players were correct back then, you could always keep those players. In today's world, you can't and free agency will come up and sweep some away.
Jim Finks was a real smart "co-co" and he would have changed up a bit on this type thinking.
When you look back at his history he built those real tough Minnesota Vikings teams with drafting big men, but those teams really didn't hit the hit the heights until, he dealt for QB. Fran Tarkenton in 1972, he acquired WR. John Gilliam in 1972 and he drafted RB. Chuck Foreman in 1973.
With the Bears he did the same building with big linemen, he did get Walter Payton in 1975, but everything feel in place when he drafted MLB. Mike Singletary in 1981, Jim McMahon-QB. in 1982 and then got OT. Jimbo Covert, Willie Gault-WR and Richard Dent-DE. in 1983.
I do believe that had he lived he would have adjusted his thinking a bit, but he would always pick linemen over skilled players at particular spots. He always told me that linemen had such a longer shelf-life than skilled player, he felt as though if you went through some rough years some of those skilled players would have fallen by the sides while you were building up.
I believe today, you have to have mix in drafting. Fill in needs, especially early on and then rely on your draft team to pick the best available players from the fourth round on..
I agree with you my man, pick those players in numbers this year and try to hit upon a bonanza like last year. While I think they would love to move up, in my opinion it will be too costly to move up 8 to 10 spots.
I would have bet the bank before the Wash. Redskins signed Lavernaues Coles, it would have been the Redskins, especially with Dan Snyder making some moves, but without a number one pick, it has to be someone else.
I am very interested to see who the Arizona Cardinals pick with the 6th overall pick.
Those Cardinals are always very hard to figure out.
Also with Bill Parcells making the moves in Dallas, you can rule out the Cowboys making strange picks this season.
With Marvin Lewis making the calls in Cincinnati, I don't see them making too many bad picks. He is one of the best talent evaluating coaches in this game. Some of these coaches are not very good talent evaluators, but Marvin is one of the very best.
Take Care and again thanks for the nice words

by WALT SULLIVAN
This Thursday, your board of directors will elect my deserving and worthy successor, Jane Piotrowski. For years, she has been the spark plug of virtually every event, made many committees work, recruited many volunteers, and ably held critical vice-presidencies. It will be my privilege to support her in every way I can.
As an elected director and immediate past president and Executive Committee member, I will continue to advocate for those actions that I believe we need to accomplish for our community and our association. There are many projects currently before the CHCA that directly affect every resident of Chestnut Hill.
1. Chestnut Hill College expansion on SugarLoaf Hill
Our work in June and July will conclude with an agreement with the Chestnut Hill College that I believe adequately protects the vital interests of every Chestnut Hill resident, including the nearby residents in the northernmost part of Chestnut Hill, while permitting the college to grow as it must.
The issues in negotiation are numerous and dauntingly complex. We have resolved most. Our work now is to bring an agreement before the CHCA board for approval. There may be some nearby neighbors who complain that the agreement did not go far enough in protecting their interests. Be assured that we will not present any agreement unless we believe it does exactly that.
This is the single largest development in five decades in our community. This is our college. Our college needs to expand and grow including on the SugarLoaf Hill site. Yet the way in which that expansion takes place significantly affects not only the near neighbors and their two advocacy organizations but also our entire community.
In the fall of 2009, your CHCA board established a committee of nine plus several alternates, for the purpose of negotiating with our college the manner of its needed expansion. That group included representation by two representatives of near neighbors. Those people commenced preparations for those conversations with our college. Those people have to date invested many, many thousands of hours (some of them alone well over 3,000) in this vital work. (I alone have devoted well over 1,000 hours to facilitate and monitor this work.)
During our negotiations, the college postponed its IDD application three times for more than a year and has agreed to modify that zoning status giving added protections to the community that will be enacted into the ordinance. We did not originally favor an IDD, and the college agreed to create and alternative-zoning overlay, but that alternative did not pass muster with the City Planning Commission. Thus that IDD with those substantial modifications is all that is possible and now moves forward through City Council.
Those negotiations are now nearing a conclusion and will result in a Community Development Agreement (CDA) and a pattern of extensive conservation easements and zoning-related arrangements with our college that will assure the needs of the near neighbors, of the other interested community organizations and, above all, of our whole community – and of our college.
The present furor in press and public
I take care here to say nothing that will estrange anyone or undermine agreement, but I do have the duty to inform this community that we represent and serve.
Naturally enough, there may remain areas of disagreement among the nearby neighbors in the community coalition that comprises this committee. Here in our Local, these last several weeks, there have appeared articles, letters, columns, and a large ad for a public meeting expressing divergent opinion, and that may continue. What else, after all, do we publish a community newspaper for? And some in direct mailings to residents and at public meetings now make assertions (many not accurate, and many quite hyperbolic) that raise concerns in the minds of many. We move forward to resolve those concerns, profoundly mindful of the interests of the nearby neighbors and of the whole community.
Other important goals
2. Move forward to fill vacant storefronts
We retained a retail consultant who developed a workable plan and helped us recruit an excellent retail recruiter, Eileen Reilly, whose work is producing substantial visible results. I am therefore not dismayed by those storefront vacancies that still exist. We are doing exactly what needs to be done.
3. Chestnut Hill needs a bookstore
It is a crying shame that this most literate community has been without a bookstore for almost 18 months. It is a deep personal loss to very many of us. Community leaders with the means to act must act to bring Chestnut Hill a bookstore – chain or independent, I don't care – where we can browse and relax over coffee and sit and read and decide to buy.
4. We decide June 23 about the "BigBelly" trash compactors
You've seen them throughout center city, in Mt. Airy, and one just for community review down by The Night Kitchen. They're good for environmental reasons, but they are quite large. Some strongly favor them here. Some want none at all here, largely for aesthetic reasons. Some are unsure. We need to hear from you whom we represent because your board must decide the question June 24.
5. Your community needs all Chestnut Hill residents to join CHCA
Not just because your membership gives you a subscription to our valued Local, as good a reason as that is. Certainly not just because with it come discounts at many shops and eateries. And not just because the modest membership dues that you pay are absolutely necessary to support everything that your CHCA does. The money is important, but has never been what I really care about.
No, the fundamental reason is that you need to be part of CHCA to participate in the life and work of our community, to be fully involved, to preserve what we love about this place and to change what needs to be changed.
Your community organization needs to mount an all-out house-by-house drive to recruit new members, using BRT records block-by-block, voter street lists, reverse phone directory lists, phone calls and, yes, shoe leather.
Many other actions are useful, such as outreach to new homebuyers through realtors, but none of them all together are enough unless we do a block-by-block, house-by-house full court press. Your community is worth that.
And never forget that half of our residents are renters, many long term, whom we need more fully as part of our community and its decision-making and its work.
The work internal to your CHCA to strengthen it
1. The community-wide Web portal
Approved by a vote of 20 to 5 on April 28, the portal moves forward to the report in June or July from portal consultant Mel Taylor and to the adoption by the board of the job description he prepares for a separate portal manager within our Local and to the authorization to proceed.
2. Resist all efforts to water down the September 2009 solvency motion that protects our beloved Local
That motion provides a gradual build-up in the Solvency Fund to $125,000, which must not be slowed. This ensures the solvency of our Local, upon which its ability ever to borrow is essential.
3. Secure from the IRS 501(c)(3) tax deductibility status for grantors and donors to the CHCA
This is essential to enable your CHCA to be eligible for programmatic grants.
4. Provide a separate board with expertise for our beloved Local
Quite controversial, this proposal was defeated Feb. 24, by a vote of 15 to 11. It remains just as necessary this term. An Executive Committee of 12, and a board of 33, amateurs, however devoted, are not the right people to be evaluating and overseeing the work of our skilled Local professionals. A board of three with great expertise in publishing is.

New Zealand requires licensing and in-depth background checks for would-be gun owners, but neither gun control policy prevented Friday's attacks in Christchurch that killed nearly 50 people.
The University of Sydney's GunPolicy.org describes New Zealand's gun control as "restrictive," because owning guns in that nation is not a guaranteed right but a privilege extended by the government.
Moreover, before legally owning a gun, residents must acquire a license. The acquisition of that license involves passage of a background check that "considers criminal, mental health, medical, addiction and domestic violence records." Third party references must also be provided to authorities during the license procurement process and interviews are conducted with the applicant's immediate family.
Even after licensing, New Zealanders cannot buy a handgun or "military style" semiautomatic without providing an acceptable explanation for why they want such a firearm. Additionally, those firearms must be registered with the central government upon acquisition.
It is illegal to sell a gun to anyone without a license, which means the background checks for license acquisition are universal; they cover all gun sales and transfers. And in the event that an individual is buying a gun from a friend or neighbor instead of retail, "the buyer… is obliged to pass official background checks before taking possession." Also, "the number and type of firearms which can be sold by a licensed gun dealer to a single gun owner is limited to one pistol, military style semi-automatic firearm, or restricted firearm per acquisition permit."
Further, gun show sales are highly regulated in New Zealand.
Democrat lawmakers in the U.S. are promoting many of these very gun controls–universal background checks, licensing, more gun show regulation, limits on the number of guns that can be purchased, etc.–arguing that these measures will make Americans safe. It is not yet clear how the killer in Christchurch acquired his weapons, yet we see that these gun controls did not prevent an attack that killed nearly 50 unarmed innocents.
More than one mosque was attacked in Christchurch, and the shooters who converged on a mosque in Linwood were reportedly chased by an apparent attendee who happened to be armed for self-defense.

Killing In The Name Of.
I was just listening to the CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corporation for those non-canucks… ), and heard an RCMP officer saying that it's not 'natural' for a human being to kill.
This is so, so, NOT accurate.

Serving Size: 2
Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Mmmm simple comfort food. I jokingly call this "garbage omurice" because I make it with whatever is lying around in the fridge, esp vegetables. Last time I might have gone overboard on the veggies with small diced carrots, zucchini, onion, mushroom. Used finely diced kielbasa as the meat. You get the idea- you really just put anything inside. Also, can use leftover rice as it tends to be a little firmer for the frying (instead of being sticky). I also like making a quick bowl of instant miso soup to accompany.

I have been in Europe for almost one month and am slowly getting aquatinted with the French lifestyle. Annika and I have been working towards setting up our life here on the French Riviera which is easier said than done. Trying to get anything done around the holidays is always difficult, so in the meantime while the French take a little siesta, we have been enjoying our time here as well. Below are a few photos I have snapped from my phone while out riding or roaming the streets.

Where Does the Expression 'To Have a Chip on Your Shoulder' Come From?
When you have a chip on your shoulder, it means you're in a foul mood because of some injustice, imagined or not, you believe another person or group of people have directed against you. It also implies that you can easily become upset. But what exactly is the origin of this popular expression?
To start out with, just in case you're uncertain, the 'chip' being referred to is a hunk of wood, not a chunk of delicious chocolate, or a salty potato chip.
The origins of this phrase date back to 18th century British Naval shipyards, when shipwrights were allowed to carry home excess timber, or wood 'chips,' for their personal use. Well, some of the workers took advantage of this special privilege and ended up toting off more than their fair share.
The rules subsequently changed, and the men were only allowed to carry wood home under one arm, instead of the heavier loads they were accustomed to hauling on their shoulders. It goes without saying that the shipwrights were less than pleased with the new restrictions, and many still tried to carry their chips home on their shoulders.
In North America, the expression came into common usage in the 19th century. When a boy, or a man, was spoiling for a fight, he would walk around town with a literal chip of wood on his shoulder, as a kind of advertisement. The hopeful combatant would then dare someone to knock the chip off. Anyone who took him up on his offer would have to suffer the violent consequences.
These days the chips are imaginary, but the sore feelings and bad tempers people experience when they think they have been slighted are still very real.

A "Downton Abbey" story if there ever was one! For it came to light that butler Haydon Lounds had secretly married heiress Miss Maud Ward Fox - the daughter of his employer, a wealthy widow.
On her death in 1911 Mrs Eleanor Ward-Fox left in her will £13,000 to her daughter, Maud, with a legacy of £200 to "my butler Lounds in my service at my death".
On her death in 1911 Mrs Eleanor Ward-Fox left in her will £13,000 to her daughter, Maud, with a legacy of £200 to "my butler Lounds in my service at my death".
A Secret Marriage Ceremony in 1909: However not known at the time of Mrs Ward-Fox's death was the fact that butler Haydon Lounds, a good looking and well educated man, according to a newspaper report, had been for three years the husband of Maud, following a secret marriage ceremony in Devon in 1909. The online Index to marriages confirms this event.
Single in the Census of 1911: But in the 1911 census Haydon was still describing himself as single - a 38 year old bachelor, still working as a butler for the Ward-Fox family - Mrs Eleanor Ward-Fox, her older daughter Gertrude and Maud, 30, (also cited in the census as single) all living at Bramhope, Torquay in a household that included a footman, groom, cook, kitchen maid and two housemaids. Mrs Ward Fox died later that year at the main family home in Bakewell, Derbyshire.
Change of Name: The wedding was kept a secret for three years and was first reported in the then "Morning Post" Feb 9th 1912 when Haydon changed his surname by deed poll to Haydon Stephen-Fox.
No children were born to the marriage, with Maud dying 1945 and Haydon two years later.
This story came to light when a cousin asked me to help trace information about his maternal grandmother Sarah Haydon Lounds who married my great uncle John Danson (right in the only photograph I have of him) ).
Sarah was born in Worksop, Nottinghamshire in 1884. Sadly she died at the young age of 21 in 1906, soon after the birth of their daughter Annie. My cousin was keen to find out the background to Sarah's middle name - Haydon. He knew little other than of family connections with Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire and some kind of scandal with a "black sheep" of the family who had been a servant in a large country house.
Using standard online resources, I traced Sarah''s father to be George Haydon Lounds and her brother Haydon Lounds (1873-1947) who was named after his grandfather - another Haydon Lounds, a coachbuilder in Grantham, Lincolnshire. The Haydon name came from two generation further back when in 1814 a Thomas Lounds married a Sarah Haydon. The name Haydon was passed down through many generations and branches of the family and I was grateful to an internet contact for filling me in with details on this "black sheep" of the family.
The story of "Searching for Sarah" is for another post - so do watch this space!

We are a group of dedicated car enthusiasts, who for the last twenty years have been sourcing and supplying quality classic, exotic, and luxury automobiles to customers around the world. We have extensive contacts throughout the California car community, and can usually locate any car that is not already in our million dollar inventory. LOCATION Marina del Rey is a resort area in Los Angeles, approximately three miles north of Los Angeles International airport. There is plenty of reasonably priced accommodations in the vicinity, where one can expect to find a reasonable room for around fifty dollars per night. Please feel free to contact us if you are planning a visit and wish us to make a reservation for you. INVENTORY We maintain an up to date listing of all our cars. Our inventory currently stands at around one hundred cars. Except for exceptional circumstances, every car on our list is physically in our possession. Should you not see the car you are seeking, please feel free to contact us with your needs, we will put you into our computer system and contact you when the car you desire is available. PRICING We try to price the cars as fairly as possible. When buying a car for export from the USA one pays no local or state sales taxes. Discounts are available for multiple car purchases. CONDITION OF CARS California is a dry state, so rust is not usually a problem with cars. However when buying thirty or forty year old vehicles, do expect to see some minor surface corrosion. We sell cars in every condition, from unrestored to perfect condition. However, when buying less expensive cars, please bear in mind the following: There is no annual safety inspection in California, so especially if you are in Europe, where there are stringent safety standards, please expect to have to spend some money on reconditioning (suspension, brakes etc.). Obviously if we are aware of a problem with a car we will advise you in advance. PAYMENT for cars can be made in several ways. Firstly, if you are planning to visit us you may wish to bring travellers checks or cash with you (U.S.dollars!) We can also accept smaller payments on Visa and Mastercard. When buying a car over the telephone, our customers usually wire transfer funds to our bank. FINANCING Please click here for more information on classic and luxury car financing. SHIPPING is available to any destination world wide through a well respected shipping company. In most circumstances the cars are packed into containers and secured in wooden frames to minimise the possibility of damage. The cost of shipping an average sized car to Antwerp, for instance, is US$1000. This price includes all costs from our showroom to the port of Antwerp. There is also optional insurance available at a cost of 1.5% of the value of the car. All shipping and insurance costs are usually paid on arrival of the car. The typical journey time from Los Angeles to most European destinations is five weeks, including time for packing, loading and unloading. CONSIGNMENTS We are always looking for good quality classics or modern performance cars, so if you would like us to represent your vehicle, please contact us and we can discuss your options. If you are looking to sell an AC, Austin Healey, Alfa Romeo, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Jaguar, Jensen, Lotus, Mercedes Benz, Porsche, Triumph or any other classic sports car, let us know!

Mikhail Grigorenko is not interested in the KHL's CSKA Moscow.
Reaaaallly not interested.
As we reported earlier, Grigs had received a the promise of a guaranteed roster spot and some big money from Sergei Fedorov's team in the motherland. Well, now we know how Grigorenko feels about it, as well as his intentions on where he will play if there is a NHL lockout this season. From Sports.ru (roughly translated by Google Translate):
Forward "Buffalo" Mikhail Grigorenko said that he had an offer to return to CSKA.
– Contract nobody offered me so serious intentions to talk is not worth it. Yes, I called from CSKA Moscow, Valery Bragin and Sergei Fedorov were interested in my plans. But for myself, I firmly decided that I would try to break into the adult hockey overseas. No desire to return to Russia with me at the moment.
– And if the NHL lockout will be?
– I will continue to act in a junior league for "Quebec". Why am I so firmly opposed to returning to CSKA Moscow? With the recent acquisitions made by the army club, a chance to gain a foothold there, I will be a little bit. Yes, and the precipitate was left on the moment when I went out of CSKA. I do not really trust it. There were problems with the coaching staff and with the leadership of the club.
– But now there was a change in CSKA appeared Fedorov, Bragin …
– I would not say that everything changed. The same people were working in the structure of the club.
That's some pretty tough talk. It's not exactly bridge burning stuff, but a public slap in the face of Moscow's darling club can't be going over well in the offices of Bragin and Fedorov.
For Sabres fans, well, it's certainly encouraging to see the young man make an impact statement on this issue. With any doubts over his commitment now resolved, we can now just look forward to watching him making some impact statements on the ice here in Buffalo.
Go Sabres.

Life has been completely crazy lately! I have had a chance to enjoy a couple of wines…just haven't had much time to write about them. Here are a couple of nice Cabernet Sauvignon varieties I've recently tasted.
2009 Fetzer Cabernet Sauvignon. A Cab Sauv from California with flavors of black cherry, vanilla and chocolate. Medium bodied with moderate tannins, this wine is easy to drink. It paired nicely with the pork loin we had for dinner.
2010 Root: 1 Cabernet Sauvignon. Root: 1 wines are known as the "original ungrafted" wines as the grapes are grown in the ungrafted root systems of the Colchagua Valley in Chile, which results in intense, ripe fruit flavors.
This wine has a strong cherry aroma with deep flavors of tangy blackberry and vanilla. It is a full-bodied wine with soft tannins and good structure. I'd love to eventually try the Root:1 Carmenere and Sauvignon Blanc.
You should be able to find these wines for $10-$12 each.
cabernet Sauvignon is a great red wine which has high tannin levels. Tannins are those good things that help your heart. Meals that pair well are steak, rack of lamb, roast chicken and duck.

• fastidious •
Pronunciation: fæs-ti-di-yês
Part of Speech: Adjective
Meaning: 1. Excessively meticulous in matters of detail; demanding, exacting. 2. Very difficult to satisfy, haughtily perfectionist in matters of propriety and taste.
Notes: Today we continue our month-long focus on words that are not what they seem to be. This good word has nothing to do with speed, even though there seems to be a reference to speed buried within it. The meaning of today's word should also not be confused with that of meticulous "extremely careful, highly attentive to detail". Fastidious is slightly pejorative, suggesting condescension, being overly meticulous, while meticulous is very positive.
In Play: Today's good word can raise the level of a conversation hanging on words like choosy, finicky, or pernickety, "Dee is so fastidious she puts newspapers under the cuckoo clock." Just remember that today's word means too meticulous, "Thurston is so fastidious at the snooker table, he wipes up every particle of chalk dust almost before it lands."
Word History: This good word comes from a Latin adjective, fastidiosus, from the noun fastidium "arrogance, haughtiness". The noun probably started out its life as a compound of fastus "disdain, arrogance" + tædium "boredom, weariness". English borrowed the latter for its tedium and adjective, tedious. Other relatives are difficult to find.

I would like to express my gratitude to the good doctor in that he also explains the quality between given synonyms or near synonyms like the above, by explaining that the good word fastidious is a "bad" word comp. to the good word meticulous being a "good" word. Things like that can make a non-native speaker avoid putting his foot in the mouth when trying to say something nice for example.
Beg your pardon for my poor spelling and grammer.

Part of the appeal of Rockstar's LA Noire was the fact it was set in a time period that video games normally avoid like the plague. The hats, the music, the black & white, it should be poison to a generation of gamers accustomed to wars, aliens, sports and fast cars.
But as LA Noire's success shows, there's a market for moody period mysteries. One that 1996 adventure game Noir: A Shadowy Thriller tried its darnedest to cater for. Developed by TSi, a short-lived California studio and published by 1990's multimedia tragics Cyberdream, Noir - which already has one over Rockstar's 2011 title for the fact it could spell the word properly - was a crude adventure game which basically involved a lot of clicking on stuff.
In fact, that's almost all you did in the game, as aside from some surprisingly competent FMV conversation sequences, you spend most of your time picking up and interacting with things on static 2D images, ala Myst. Rather than being to the game's detriment, though, it's actually quite the piece of work.
Noir comprises what must be thousands of painstakingly authentic photographs, some of the beautiful vistas of 1940's Los Angeles, others as mundane as close-ups of an elevator button. It's a disturbingly comprehensive tribute to the era, one that even LA Noire's obsession with hats and fancy shoes doesn't ever seem to match.
The game is your typical mystery fare; your partner goes missing, so you pick up his last remaining cases in an attempt to find him. Along the way you encounter pretty ladies, well-dressed gentlemen, Chinatown, Hollywood and stereotypical, dimly-lit offices. Basically, everything you'd expect and hope for given the genre.
Sadly, the game's no longer commercially available, but if you want to check it out, Google should be able to help you track down a copy.

Lee named Dodgers' top pitcher
Quakes' Schebler tabbed Minor League Player of the Year
By Jake Seiner / MiLB.com | September 27, 2013 5:43 PM
In the 2010 Draft, the Dodgers took a risk by throwing millions at Zach Lee to lure him away from a football scholarship at LSU.
This summer, the right-hander made good on rewarding the club for its faith. On Friday, the Dodgers rewarded their No. 3 prospect with the Branch Rickey Minor League Pitcher of the Year award.
Lee, ranked 56th on MLB.com's list of Top 100 Prospects, spent the entire season with Double-A Chattanooga and went 10-10 with a 3.22 ERA in 28 appearances (25 starts). He struck out 131 over 142 2/3 innings, walking 35 while limiting opponents to a .247 batting average and 13 homers.
The McKinney, Texas, native made his Southern league last year and compiled a 4.25 ERA in 13 starts. He improved his strikeout-to-walk ratio from 2.32 in 2012 to 3.74 this season, thanks mostly to a walks-per-nine-innings rate that fell from 3.02 to 2.21.
Lee was named a Southern League midseason All-Star by posting a 2.98 first-half ERA. While that figure jumped to 3.77 after the All-Star break, he improved his strikeout-to-walk ratio to 4.44 in second-half outings. He ended up 10th in the circuit in ERA and tied for third in strikeouts and WHIP (1.17)
Outfielder Scott Schebler, who batted .296 with 27 homers, 69 extra-base hits, 91 RBIs and a .941 OPS at Class A Advanced Rancho Cucamonga, was named the Dodgers' Minor League Player of the Year. He and Lee will be honored before Sunday's game against the Rockies at Dodger Stadium.

Try though he may, Baltimore Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs just can't escape Raiders quarterback Carson Palmer, when you think it might be Palmer the one trying to get away from Suggs.
They played against each other their entire college careers, Palmer and USC and Suggs at Arizona State. Palmer went No. 1 overall in the 2003 NFL draft to the Cincinnati Bengals. The Ravens selected Suggs with the 10th pick.
Palmer faced Suggs and the Ravens 13 times from 2004-10 — Palmer didn't play his rookie season — with Palmer beating the Ravens nine times.
"This guy has kind of tortured me through all my college and professional career," Suggs said in a conference call with Bay Area media Wednesday. "I'm very aware of the talent. I know he can make every throw. If you ask me, he's very highly underrated. He's definitely one of the premier quarterbacks in the league."
Suggs said he doesn't fear any quarterback, yet "I'm always worried when I play Carson Palmer."
With good reason, too. Palmer won those nine games against Suggs and the Ravens while having only three passes intercepted. The Ravens intercepted Palmer eight times in the four games they beat Palmer.
Ravens coach John Harbaugh also is quite impressed with the Palmer that he coached against the past five seasons.
"First of all, he's real smart," Harbaugh said. "He's done a great job of reading coverages and knowing where to go with the ball; that's No. 1. Number two, he's got this incredible arm. He can make every throw. He's kind of a fearless competitor. Stands in there tough and he puts it in there, and that's pretty much the criteria for a great quarterback."
Suggs is one of the guys Palmer always takes into account whenever he plays the Ravens. That Suggs is playing this season comes as somewhat of a surprise, given he ruptured his Achilles during the offseason.
"It's amazing he is playing," Palmer said. "I remember when it happened, I remember thinking, 'Alright, great, that sucks for Terrell, but he'll be out by the time we get out in Baltimore.' Sure enough, he was playing 2 or 3 weeks ago against Houston.
"That's the type of guy he is. He's an extremely hard worker. He's going to come back early, and just when you doubt him, he proves people wrong. I played against him for 15 years now, a phenomenal football player, phenomenal against the pass and phenomenal against the pass–there aren't a lot of guys who are good at both, like he is. I don't know if there is another one, as good as he is, at playing them both."
— The Raiders last played the Ravens in 2008, when JaMarcus Russell was the quarterback, Justin Fargas the primary running back, Javon Walker a starting receiver and so on.
Much has changed in the past three seasons. Yet, one thing remains constant, in Suggs' opinion.
"Talent," Suggs said. "Al (Davis) has always done a tremendous job of bringing in the biggest and the scariest guys. They always had tremendous talent, but what (they) have done over there is just stack the talent a little bit more. (They) definitely got weapons that Carson can work with."
Of the 53 players on Oakland's roster that day, Oct. 26, 2008, only eight remain on today's roster, including two that started that game: guard Cooper Carlisle and defensive tackle Tommy Kelly.
The six other players still wearing a Raiders uniform now are: punter Shane Lechler, kicker Sebastian Janikowski, long-snapper Jon Condo, running back Darren McFadden, free safety Michael Huff and strong safety Tyvon Branch.
— The Ravens last lost a regular-season home game late in the 2010 season. Their streak has reached an NFL-best 14 straight regular-season home victories, including a 4-0 mark this season.
To that end, Harbaugh said, the Ravens take the field with an air about them, knowing that good things happen when they play in front of their own fans.
"There is probably a confidence level with that, because we've had some positive experiences," Harbaugh said. "There's been a lot of big games and tough games in that, that just kind of set that tone a little bit. But every game stands on its own two feet."
That last sentence is what the Raiders are counting upon, that the previous 14 wins by the Ravens at their place don't count for much when the Raiders play there Sunday.
— Allen reiterated that he isn't prepared to make a determination on the status of injured players McFadden, running back Mike Goodson and defensive tackle Richard Seymour until after practice Friday.
None of those three practiced today. Allen said McFadden and Goodson are wearing protective boots as a result of their high-ankle sprains.
Coincidentally, rookie Jeremy Stewart said he is preparing this week as if he is going to be signed from the practice squad and activated for Sunday's game.
"Yeah, they said it's a possibility," Stewart said. "They basically told me to be ready, and we'll see what happens."
Stewart said he has taken a similar approach since he signed with the Raiders.
"You have to approach every day like you're going to be the guy starting. So, since I've gotten here I've been preparing for my opportunity. So, if it presents itself this weekend, I'll be ready."
He rushed for 257 yards on only 55 carries his final season at Stanford. He also scored 10 touchdowns on 62 touches that season.
"I feel like I'm a good finisher," Stewart said. "I can find the end zone."
Taiwan Jones and Marcel Reece are splitting the reps in practice this week. Like Palmer, offensive coordinator Greg Knapp said he is eager to see what Jones can do in a game.
"Pure speed, it's one of the fastest I've been around," Knapp said of Jones, "because he has that ability to burst and separate right away. That trait is not coachable, so he does have that ability to separate real fast which is a unique quality to have."
Knapp said injuries suffered by Jones this season cost him some valuable practice time, which set him back in terms of getting down his assignments on each play. Ball-security issues also are a concern.
— Right offensive tackle Khalif Barnes said he feels pretty good in his return from a groin injury. Yet, he doesn't sound overly optimistic about playing Sunday.
"Obviously I've got some kinks to get out, but you'll get those out the more you're on the field," Barnes said. "Each day that goes by, the more familiar I get with stuff, the muscle memory starts coming back, and that's how I'm approaching it."
Barnes said he feels as if he needs more time to get back up to speed. That's understandable considering he didn't practice for more than seven weeks after suffering a groin injury that required surgery.
Allen said Barnes, Willie Smith and Tony Bergstrom are taking reps at right offensive tackle in practice this week. It's possible that Allen will announce the starter for the Ravens game as soon as Friday.
— Michael Huff is going to remain at cornerback for the Ravens game, Allen said.
Ron Bartell is expected to be activated Saturday and play Sunday for the first time since he suffered a shoulder injury in the regular-season opener.
Allen said the plan is to play Bartell as much as Bartell can handle. With Bartell and Huff at cornerback, that likely means less playing time for Pat Lee and Phillip Adams.
— Allen said Seymour was in no shape to practice Thursday, that Seymour "couldn't practice today if he had to."
That means Desmond Bryant, Lamaar Houston and Christo Bilukidi might be in for more playing time inside if Seymour isn't healthy enough to play Sunday. Dave Tollefson is another player that can move inside for a few downs here and there, if needed.
— The Raiders burned one of their 14 allotted practices in pads Wednesday, Allen said. They did so as a means of working on tackling on the heels of a lackluster performance against the Buccaneers.

Our website is VERY Plain at the moment since we are in the beginning stages of development. The following will be in our phase one roll out.
The design/layout/creativity needs to plan for future expansion and added content and information on the homepage as we grow.
Rotating image near the top of the page.
-The header buttons are: Research, Community, Blogs, Company. These buttons should allow for a sub menu below it to expand on these headers.
-Sign up for our newsletter.

-Quick compare religions/beliefs on the homepage using a drop down box to compare up to 3-4 religions.
-Creatively place 2 AD boxes somewhere within the design.
This site was just recently constructed, so the layout of items should NOT be considered. We are looking for creativity here! We are in the beginning stages.
http://www.patheos.com this and beliefnet.com are organizations with similar outreach.

I pm'd Jesse as well and he's typically online later, so we should know by tonight.

To access the New Chat Room, click onto the Mets Chat icon to your left.
Nobody knows how the Mets' rotation will shape up in 2011, but after his strong showings so far, Dillon Gee will get an opportunity in spring training to crack the rotation. He's given the Mets a chance to win when he starts and with the expectations of the Mets as low as they are, that's all you can ask for.
As of now, I see Mike Pelfrey, RA Dickey and Jon Niese in the rotation, with my head shaking with wonder about the latter. He's hit a wall in his development and has a long way to go.
The Mets will be without Carlos Beltran for tonight and the rest of the season, shut down with pain in his right knee. The Mets say there is no more structural damage, but he will be re-examined by the Colorado doctors who operated on him this spring.

russellp needed a new web page design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 53 designs submitted by 16 freelance designers.
I need a layout designed for DNListings, which is a site that will aggregate domain auctions and listings from various venues and provide and easy way to browse and search them all in one place.
First of all, I had a logo designed for the site which you can find here: http://www.dndata.com/dnlistings.zip I like the concept behind the logo (the graphic with the "listings" and the magnifying glass) but I don't really like how it turned out, especially the font, so if you would like to use the concept of this logo but modify it or create your own version to fit your layout that's fine.
Also, I have a mockup of most of what the layout should contain which you can find here: http://www.dndata.com/dnlistingsmockup.gif It is a simple front-end I threw together while developing the back-end.
As you can see the main content area of the site is the actual listings, which contain domains names along with various stats, prices, etc in the columns. Each column heading is sortable, and there should be a pagination area above and below the listings.
On the left and right sides are various search options and filters.
As you can see across the top there are many different categories of domains that people can browse, and within each category they can browse Auctions, Drops, or Listings.
I also need a few more things added that aren't in the mockup. One is a login area (username, passworld, remember me checkbox and sign in) (I'm thinking maybe in the upper left area). Also I need options to get a permalink to the search results, subscribe to the results via RSS, and save the search.
Another ability I would like to add is for users to be able to "star" a listing (similar to gmail where you click a star icon and it will save it to your starred folder), only thing is I'm not sure where the star would fit in since I have the logo of the venue to the left of the domain, which seems to be the most logical place.
If you have any empty space that needs filling you could put a small "featured domains" section.
The design should fit 1024 width resolutions. I would like the listings area to have the widest possible width since some domains can be long.
As far as colors I am not set on anything. You can use the colors of the logo/mockup but I am definitely open to other colors and you are free to modify the logo as you wish. I would like the listings area to have a light background but other than that I am open to anything.
Please ask me if you have any other questions as this is my first layout contest.
Good luck to everyone!
- Fun, vibrant, web 2.0 style layout
- Should be clean and functional
- Audience will be mostly tech savvy people who buy and sell domains
- Bland, corporate looking page
