LG is all about the cinema-feeling with its new EA93 monitor which offers a ludicrous yet weirdly alluring 21:9 aspect ratio.
As well as LG's 'Cinema Screen' design, the 29-inch monitor offers high-quality lifelike colours (LG's words) thanks to the IPS monitor's 100 per cent sRGB colour space and 300nit brightness. Response times come in at GTG 5ms.
Bye bye second monitor
If you're a multitasker by nature, you can use the 4-Screen Split feature to divide the display into four segments, or even link several gadgets up to the monitor at once using the Dual Link-up function.
This means you might be able to get by with just the one mega-wide monitor instead of a dual-monitor set up.
Visuals aside, the EA93 also offers 7W stereo speakers and two HDMI ports, a USB 3.0 jack, one DVI-D (dual) and two display ports.
No word from LG on how much it'll be selling the LG EA93 monitor for, but since it didn't offer a release date either, we guess we'll just have to wait and see.

This is a funny article about worker productivity in Wisconsin during the week leading up to the NFC Championship.
Here is what Ben Grigg, president of Arrowhead Foundry, said about giving his workers a long break on Sunday night. "We've got about 300 people and they're all focused on one thing – and that's the Packers kicking the Giants' butts. And that's exciting. And there is a lot of noise, but we see that as a positive energy and something that we sort of go with."
There's lots more like that and the article is well worth reading.
I have one major complaint: Who wrote that stupid-ass headline? "How Much Time Do You Waste at Work on the Packers?" Even if you spend four hours a day reading about the Packers at work, the answer to that dumb question is zero. I think we should demand a correction.

In 2005 the Joint Juvenile Gang Unit was formed to address youth gang activity in and around the Austin area.
In the early 1990's, Austin communities began to experience a serious increase in gang related crimes. In an immediate response, the Austin Police Department merged several units into what is now known as the Gang Suppression Unit (GSU) in 1993. The GSU, a component of the Organized Crime Division, is charged with investigating crimes involving gang members. The class and type of crimes investigated by the unit vary from responding to citizen concerns about gang activity to shutting down major narcotics rings and investigating aggravated assaults and homicides. Gang activity is more complex than it has ever been, encompassing a wide range of groups. The community now contends with juvenile street gangs, criminal prison gangs, and hate groups which statutorily meet the gang criteria. Most prevalent are the activities of street gangs. Their activities range from property damage to the most violent of crimes. Criminal street gangs often consist of juveniles and young adults. Ages are more varied in prison gangs and hate groups.
The Texas Penal Code describes a criminal street gang as being "three or more persons having a common identifying sign or symbol, or an identifiable leadership who continuously or regularly associates in the commission of criminal activities." In looser terminology, a gang can be described as a group of individuals who may claim control over certain territories and engage in illegal behaviors. As history has shown, participants are often volatile, committing acts of violence toward rival gang members or the general public for even minor infractions of their code. Police officers and the public must understand that gang activity is not limited to any specific race, economic status, or political ideology. There are gangs exclusive to Black members, Hispanics, Asians and Whites. There are also a number of gangs with cross racial boundaries.

So, would that make him Crocodile Peewee?
Everything's bigger in Texas!
I'd like to say, "Poor gator", but the truth is that that thing could have the gators that have run from me for breakfast. Probably have me for lunch.
When I was 5 I was chasing fireflies and having nightmares about things like this. Kids have changed. Or maybe I was just slow.
And his ambition is to become a cheerleader.
Wow! Sounds like Texas is a place where men are boys and crocs are nervous--or they should be.
Simon's next hunting target should be the story's copy editor.
*is glad on so many levels that I don't live in Texas.*
In the early '70's my family and I traveled, by car, across the U.S. N.C. to California. We were on our way to Clark AFB, Philippines. I was very young but old enough to have heard about the population explosion and how we were running out of land. After about 6 hours of lovely driving through Texas I told my dad I didn't know why they were so worried about running out of land. We still had Texas. I thought it was the biggest place I had ever seen.
Water that gator or it won't grow.
If the kid claims that a gator ate his homework, I wouldn't ask too many questions.
nursecindy, you can't get to the Philippines by car... just sayin'...
I know a short cut frodo.
Y'all want shoes, now?
Hollow it out, put a couple of hinges on one side, and it would make a most excellent toy box.
The mom's larger fear: "Can I keep him? Pleeeeeease?????"
Charity gator wash. Charity gator wash. Get your gator washed here.
WriterDude...Amen to that! But, to be fair, that's one publication where "up to my a$$ in alligators" can be taken literally.
Wow, they've already made a kids's show about this.
"Hey, Mom? Guess what I caught?"
"A rabbit?"
"No, Ma'am."
"Not a snake?"
"Oh, No Ma'am."
"Well, whatever it is, you can't bring it in the house until you clean it up."
*Waves @ Annie!!!*
*snorks* @ all the swervin'.
Gator tastes like frogs' legs.
Waves at everyone!
Big wave to everyone.
WAFs to all!
*WAFFLES for everyone!!!*
um...oh wait.
After we finish those great looking waffles maybe we should take Dave's advice and increase our dosages. btw Allen. My wave is bigger than yours. That would probably sound better coming from another guy.
Oooh! Waffles!
I agree, cindy. Boredom is a dangerous thing here in Blog Land. Although we've been known to amuse ourselves quite easily at times.
Who's got the Twister™???
Instead of Twister let's play Mystery Date Siouxie. I love that game.
Book 'em, Danno!
Ahem, Dave is on vacation and the Blog is out of control! As to the original subject, didn't it seem odd that they found the gator on "another hunter's bait". Where I was raised if you mess with my traps (or my still) the fuedin is going to start!
BTW, I vote for twister.
Does everybody think that this mat will be big enough?
WD - NO JOKE!!! >< I think I went cross-eyed when she mentioned the "book shelve." GAH.
Names have been changed (back) to protect the innocent.
Cindy, my wave had cooler music...
But this is a big snake

A glitzy updating of Andy Warhol's Trash with aliens, this campy, stylish, but ultimately depressing film is one of the most keenly observed portraits of New York's early '80s downtown new wave scene. Anne Carlisle, who co-wrote the script, is terrific in a dual role as the wan lesbian Margaret and her arrogant gay nemesis, Jimmy. Tiny space aliens see Margaret shooting up and choose her to feed their heroin-like addiction to a substance produced in the human brain during sexual climax. Her partners end up vaporized, but since most of them treat her like dirt, Margaret doesn't mind. Meanwhile, a German scientist (Otto von Wernherr) has been tracking the plate-sized alien craft and observes it from the apartment of a horny Jewish woman (Susan Doukas); all the while, he is oblivious to her comic frustration and increasingly blatant sexual advances. Despite the sci-fi elements, considerable humor, cool music, and a gorgeous production design, this is really a film about desperation and ugliness. Other than Von Wernherr and Doukas -- who are outside the punk scene -- the characters all loathe themselves and treat each other horribly. Most of their sex involves rape, and when they die, each seems to be better off. Perhaps the bitter aftertaste of this film explains why it never really caught on as a midnight movie, but it is a dark gem and well worth seeing.~ Robert Firsching, All Movie Guide
Director: Slava Tsukerman
Cast: Anne Carlisle

The Blechhammer (English: sheet metal hammer) area was the location of Nazi Germany chemical plants, prisoner of war (POW) camps, and forced laborcamps (German: Arbeitslager Blechhammer; also Nummernbücher). Labor camp prisoners began arriving as early as June 17, 1942, and in July 1944, 400-500 men were transferred from the Terezin family camp to Blechhammer. The mobile "pocket furnace" (German: Taschenofen) crematorium was at S?awi?cice.) and Bau und Arbeits Battalion (BAB, English: Construction Battalion) 21 was a mile from the Blechhammer oil plants and was not far from Katowitz and Breslau. Blechhammer synthetic oil production began April with 4000 prisoners.
Chemical plantsTwo plants in the area, Blechhammer North (south of S?awi?cice) and Blechhammer South at Azoty (5 miles (8.0 km) from thelabor camp) were nicknamed "Black Hammer" by Allied bomber aircrews.The facilities were approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) apart with each occupying a 3,000 x 5,000 ft area in open country. Similar to the Gelsenberg plant, the Blechhammer plants used bituminous coal in the Bergius process to synthesize Ersatz oil. In June 1944, the United States Army Air Forces considered Blechhammer one of the four "principal synthetic oil plants in Germany", and after the Fifteenth Air Force had dropped 7,082 tons of bombs on Blechhammer, the Blechhammer plants were dismantled post-warby the Soviets.EvacuationThe March (1945) evacuated POWs (one camp went to Regensburg, BAB 21 went to Landshut) and on January 25, labor camp prisoners were force-marched for five days to Bergen Belsen (about 20% died enroute).
The "7 Company" was the guard battalion for Blechhammer, and the 1945 Belsen Trial convicted Blechhammer staff members Karl Francioh and Ansgar Piche.
A few dates in Blechhammer's history:
April 1, 1944
SS-Hauptsturmfuehrer Heinrich Schwarz, commander of the independent concentration camp Auschwitz III in Monowitz takes over of the "Juden-Zwangsarbeitslager" (existing since fall 1940) of the "Oberschlesische Hydrierwerke AG" (synthetic gasoline plants) in Blechhammer (former Kreis Cosel im Upper Silesia). The new sub-camp of Auschwitz III is now called "Arbeitslager Blechhammer". SS-Hauptsturmfuehrer Otto Brossmann is appointed to become the first "Lagerfuehrer" of Blechhammer.
The first 3,056 male prisoners of Blechhammer have tattoos of the Auschwitz-numbers 176,512-179,567 and 132 female prisoners of the numbers 76,330-76,461. Prisoners declared "unable to work" are sent by the camp administration to Auschwitz II (Birkenau) in order to be murdered, other "healthy" workers are sent from Auschwitz to Blechhammer instead.
September 9, 1944
American Bombers destroy large parts of the plants of the "Oberschlesische Hydrierwerke AG" in Blechhammer and of the oil refinery in nearby Trzebinia.
November 9, 1944
SS-Ustuf. Kurt Klipp is appointed as the 2nd "Leiter des Nebenlagers Blechhammer". (Kalendarium, p. 924) End of 1944, the evacuation of Blechhammer started : the prisoners will be sent to other camps, they'll have to walk during several days with only a little bit of bread and margarine to survive the walk. Many of them will die of exhaustion and hunger or shot by the SS officers.
List of the industries established in Blechhammer
- Camp no. 2: Beton- + Monierbau
- Camp no. 6 Fa. (firm) Krause
- Camp no. 9 Fa. Uhde
- Camp no. 14 Isolierbetrieb

- Camp no. 40 Fa. Peters
- Camp no. 49 Fa. Pook + Gruen
*The firms Uhde, AEG, Dyckerhoff + Widmann are widely known and still in existence.
Evacuation of Blechhammer: "The Death March"
This evacuation from Blechhammer started on January 21, 1945. The prisoners each got 800 grams of bread, a small portion of margarine, and artificial honey for their march.
Approximately 4,000 Blechhammer prisoners plus another 6,000 from the sub-camps Neu-Dachs, Gleiwitz I, III, and IV began their death march. They walked from Blechhammer (Blachownia Slaska) - via Kole - Neustadt - Glucholazy - Neisse - Otmuchow - Zabkowice Slaskie - Schweidnitz - Strzegom. On February 2, 1945, survivors finally reached the concentration camp Gross-Rosen.
During the march approximately 800 prisoners who were not able to walk any longer or who tried to flee were shot by the SS and the police (on these death marches they killed Jews, Poles, Russians etc. alike without making a difference). This march was lead by SS-Untersturmfuehrer Kurt Klipp, the 2nd (last) Lagerleiter of Blechhammer.
The prisoners stayed in Gross-Rosen for 5 days. Then they boarded a train to Buchenwald (Feb. 6 or 7). On the way the train was attacked several times by Allied Fighter Planes, which caused many deaths.
The total number of forced laborers working in all camps at Blechhammer (not only the sub-camp of Auschwitz III) and surroundings reached about 48,000 people (Jews being only a small part of them). This included 2,000 British Prisoners of war.

Most TV viewers will always remember Ray Romano as Ray Barone, Scott Bakula as Dr. Sam Beckett and Andre Braugher as Det. Frank Pembleton. But for some of us, they will always be Men of a Certain Age.
Although it's been three long years since the critically acclaimed TNT dramedy went off the air, fans of the series had a reason to cheer on Thursday.
TV shows that were resurrected
In a video posted by co-creator Mike Royce, Romano, Bakula and Braugher reunited to take part in the ALS ice bucket challenge. Because of the current drought in California, the trio all huddled together and shared one bucket of water among the three of them.
Watch the hilarious video below to find out how just how their reunion came together and why Romano didn't want it to end:

There are a lot of websites that sell video game inspired tshirts, but this thread will only be used to alert CAGs to shirts that are available for a limited time and/or at a special price.
Please post a link to whatever video game shirt you come across and include the game that inspired it (like "Mario"), the price if it isn't indicated in the website description below, and if possible a pic of the shirt (use spoiler for the pic to speed up page loading time).

If you want to include other websites here, pm me the website link, a description, and the standard price(s) so I can add it to this post.
-Sizing Info-
Some people like to get shirts from online stores one size larger than the shirts they normally buy (like if you usually wear medium, buy large) since they can shrink a bit after the first wash. Unfortunately it's hard to come up with a general rule as sites seem to change shirt brands at any time.
Always look at the site's sizing chart before making a purchase. It may even give you a hint if you should buy one size larger than normal. If in doubt, I go one size bigger and shrink as necessary. Imho a slightly bigger shirt looks better than wearing a slightly small one.

Ebola is a viral disease that has been a threat for more than a decade. Detected in Africa, this virus causes a serious haemorrhagic fever and has high fatality rates. There have been indications that it is from bats that these viruses infect humans, and a new study in Bangladesh lends this further credence.
Source of the Disease
Diseases like Ebola emerge periodically in human populations, and just as suddenly, disappear following an outbreak. This patterns owes itself to the virus being 'zoonotic'—a virus that infects humans via another organism. Zoonotic diseases are hard to eradicate because we can't immunize animals in the wild. This is why we have effective vaccines for Measles (not zoonotic), but Ebola or the flu is always on the radar for health officials. Thus, a crucial step in studying zoonotic diseases is determining their primary hosts. One criterion for primary hosts is that the virus shouldn't be too harmful to them. If it were, it would kill the host organism and would not be able to circulate for long periods of time, as it does. Humans are definitely not its primary hosts—each outbreak subsides soon after its origin because it is so lethal.
Ebola Virus in Bats
The organism which is the original reservoir of Ebola virus has not been known for certain, though previous studies have found a few species of bats infected with Ebola. Now, researchers have studied 276 bats in three regions of Bangladesh and identified antibodies against the Ebola virus in 4% of these, meaning that the bats have, at some point, been exposed to the Ebola virus. However, they haven't found live virus in bats, which is the piece of evidence necessary to confirm that bats are a reservoir, i.e. a permanent 'store' of the virus.
What Does this Study Tell Us?
Bats harbouring antibodies for Ebola has already been found—what new information does this study yield? This study tested bats for 2 strains of the virus: the Reston strain which has been seen in animals across the world (and has not caused human disease), and the more deadly Zaire strain, which has a whopping mortality rate of around 80% and was previously seen only in Africa. Antibodies for both these strains were found by this study, which means that a Zaire Ebola infectious outbreak in Asia remains a distinct possibility. How possible? We don't know, until we have more evidence on prevalence of the virus in its primary hosts.
This research was conducted by the EcoHealth Alliance. You can read about this study here.

Any kind of structural defect occurring in the heart, at the time of birth is called a congenital heart defect. They are the commonest type of heart defects and occur while the foetus is implanted in the uterus. Out of every 1,000 children at least 8-10 are reported to have this defect. Additional deaths are reported due to congenital heart diseases in the early stages of infancy rather than any other birth deformity. Symptoms due to congenital heart defects may be apparent at birth, during childhood, but in some cases individuals remain asymptomatic until adulthood. About 500,000 adults in the U.S. have heart ailments due to congenital heart diseases.
Shortly after conception the heart of a foetus begins to develop. During the course of development defects pertaining to anatomy can occur which involve walls of the heart, the valves of the heart and the arteries and veins near the heart. Due to these structural defects the normal course of circulation of blood is disturbed. As a result of these abnormalities the flow of blood slows down, goes in a wrong direction and to the wrong place, or gets blocked completely. Diseases generating from these defects are called congenital heart diseases out of which some get cured in the due course of time while others need to be treated .Diseases caused due to Congenital heart defects have been broadly classified as cyanotic (lacking in oxygen, blue discoloration) and non-cyanotic categories. The diseases in cyanotic category include ebstein's anomaly, return of the pulmonary venous blood, fallot tetralogy and pulmonary artesia to name some. While the common diseases in the non-cyanotic category include septal defect of atria and ventricles, aortic coarctation, stenosis of aorta and endocardial cushion defect to name some. Congenital heart diseases may or may not be accompanied with other maladies. A range of genetic disorders and chromosomal aberrations like Marfan syndrome, trisomy of 13th chromosome can lead to these defects. Also syndromes like Noonan and Down's syndrome have been known to result in defects pertaining to the structural development of the heart.
Many types of congenital heart defects have been known to be present, at times combinations of multiple defects leads to a complex defect and serious abnormalities. Some common simple congenital defects include
Septal defects: They are popularly called the holes in the heart. Wall that separates the left and the right chambers of the heart is called the septum. When an infant is born with an aperture in the septum it permits the blood in the respective chambers to mix. So the oxygenated blood mingles with the deoxygenated blood and can lead to severe complications.
Atrial septal defect (ASD) : Presence of an aperture in the septum that separates the two auricles, right and the left leads to this defect. This permits the oxygenated blood to flow from the left auricle into the right auricle in place of left ventricle. In case of small ASDs normal functioning of the heart is not affected and therefore do not need a treatment. Children may not even produce symptoms in such cases and they get closed on their own during gradual growth of the native but large and medium ASDs can be worrisome and require an aid.
Ventricular septal defect (VSD) : As the name indicates ,the presence of a hole in the wall or septum separating the ventricles. This defect again leads to the mingling up of oxygenated blood from the left ventricle into that in the right ventricle instead of flowing into aorta. Small and minor holes can repair on their own but in case of medium and large ones heart has to exert more pressure to pump blood into aorta, against the force of gravity. This eventually may also lead to a heart failure and pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Narrowed Valves: Even due to structural, functional defects and disposition of the valves obstruction in the normal circulation of blood occurs. Valves are small structures which are chiefly concerned with regulating the direction of flow of the blood. They open in one direction and prevent the back flow of the blood. Defects related with valves include Stenosis (the valves do not open entirely and therefore heart has to work harder to pump the blood), Atresia (in which valve is not formed properly leaving to passage for blood), Regurgitation(when the valve doesn't close properly and allows the blood to fall back)
Valves are flap like structures present between the auricles and ventricle and in the inner walls of pulmonary vein and aorta. Commonest valve defect, is the pulmonary stenosis which arises due to pulmonary valve narrowing. Depending on its severity it may produce symptoms. In mild cases no sign other than heart murmur is produced as a symptom. But in case of severe defect it can also lead to cyanosis during which the skin, finger nails, lips gain a bluish tint because the level of oxygen in the blood leaving heart is below normal.
Unless very acute the congenital defects produce no symptoms and therefore are not detected easily. However, certain heart defects do produce symptoms especially in new born babies which include rapid breathing, cyanosis (appearance of a bluish tint on the skin) , perpetual fatigue, poor circulation of blood. Interestingly they are not characterised with the commonly occurring pain in the chest region but certain sounds called heart murmurs are evident. Normal growth of an infant is hampered due to these defects. In older children since heart is inefficient in pumping blood strongly throughout the body, it can lead to a heart failure. Heart failure is characterised by onset of fatigue with exercise, shortness of breath, fluid build up in lungs, ankle, feet and legs.
Though, the cause leading to these congenital defects is still a matter of debate and research. Investigations reveal that alcohol, retinoic acid for acne, infections etc during pregnancy can contribute to some congenital heart problems. Inheritance of these defects has also been reported through heredity, a child is more likely to have it in case one of the parents or close relatives suffers from the ailment. Chromosomal aberrations and other genetic defects have also been known to contribute to congenital heart defects.
Special tests are performed to detect the defects which include a physical exam, during which rapid breathing, cyanosis, delayed growth are certain symptoms which are looked for. Other commonly employed tests include Echocardiogram in which sound waves are used to create a moving picture of a child's heart. The test allows in determining any difficulty in the functioning of the heart. In case a congenital heart defect is suspected during pregnancy then a foetal cardiogram can be recommended in the fourth or the fifth month of pregnancy. This reflects the state of the heart while the baby is in the womb and allows the doctor to move a step ahead in planning the treatment of the baby. .
Electrocardiogram is another popular test conducted which records the electrical activity and rhythmic movements of the heart. Patterns furnished during the test help diagnose the problem. X ray of the thoracic region also shows enlarged heart or lungs with fluid accumulation which are prominent signs of heart failure. Pulse oximetry is executed to measure the amount of oxygen in the blood. With the help of a sensor placed at an individual's fingertip or toe this is reflected on a computer screen.Cardiac catheterization during which a catheter is introduced in a vein in the arm, groin, neck region reaching heart. A dye is injected into which follows the course of circulation highlighting the anomalies.
Post diagnoses the treatment can be procured through different techniques. Treatment varies according the age, general health and the growth of an individual. It can be simple or very complex involving the use of catheters or surgeries or medication to repair the defects. Surgeries involving the use catheters are much easier and there is no need to open the chest. In case of rectifying the atrial septal defects catheter is made to reach the septum through a vein. It has a tiny umbrella like device inside it and when it reaches the specific spot the device is pushed into the aperture such that it plugs the aperture and later the catheter is withdrawn the aperture. In pulmonary valve stenosis the catheter is made to reach the pulmonary valve through a vein, where the tiny balloon shaped device at the end of the catheter is inflated to push apart the flaps of the valves and is then deflated, later the catheter is withdrawn .It is done to narrow the valves.
In case of serious defects open heart surgeries are also performed during which the holes are closed with stitches or patches, heart valves are replaced. In case the heart defects are too complex then heart transplant is also administered.
Congenital defects also envisage the onset of endocarditis in many. Certain measures adopted to protect from the threat of the same are: good care should be taken to prevent the teeth and gums from infections, a doctor should be seen in case of recurring fever, aches and sore throat, antibiotics should be taken as per prescription before undergoing any invasive test which may involve bleeding.

Eva Longoria Bikini Pictures With Shirtless Eduardo Cruz
Eva Longoria Wears Her Bikini on a Mexican Easter Getaway With Shirtless Eduardo Cruz
Eva Longoria threw on her green bikini yesterday to lounge in Cabo with boyfriend Eduardo Cruz. The pair were surrounded by friends for an afternoon in the sun, but that didn't stop them from sharing some PDA with kisses and hugs. Eva and Eduardo arrived in the city on Saturday, following a big week of family in LA. They had a double date night on Wednesday with Eduardo's sister, Penelope, and her husband Javier Bardem. Eva, Penelope, Javier, and Eduardo also spent a recent evening out as a foursome at one of Prince's LA shows. Eva and Eduardo, who are apparently getting serious, enjoyed the getaway after her recent press tour on behalf of her new cookbook Eva's Kitchen. She made the small-screen press rounds to chat up the publication while Desperate Housewives fans were happy to see her back on TV last night as Gaby Solis.

MLB Trade Deadline Bargain Bin: Bourgeois, Gordon, Davis
By Tommy Rancel //
As your league and roster recovers from a fast and furious weekend of deadline moves, you may find yourself looking for some new, uncovered waiver wire gems. With every piece sold by a non-contender, a job opening for someone else becomes available. Here are three players who have value, have a new job, and should be available on most wires.
Jason Bourgeois
The Astros replace the speedy Michael Bourn with…the speedy Jason Bourgeois. In many ways their new centerfielder may look like their old one, but their true talent levels are not the same. Although Bourgeois is hitting .354 on the season, it is in limited duty and his .383 batting average on balls in play (BABIP) will fall with increased playing time. The one true asset he does possess is speed. In 54 games, he has swiped 22 bags in just 27 opportunies. As long as he gets on-base at a decent clip, he should eclipse 40 steals. Now having hitters behind him to covert those steals into runs is another issue.
Chris Davis
Although the Orioles were sellers at the deadline, they did buy low on former Rangers' prospect Chris Davis. Hours after they did so, they traded away their own first baseman – Derrek Lee – to the Pirates to clear room for Davis in the lineup. At age 25, the slugger has been saddled with the dreaded "Quad-A" label as a player who excels in the minors, but flounders in the majors. In recent seasons this has been true, but Davis did belt 38 big league home runs in part-time work during the 2008 and 2009 seasons. He has 24 home runs in 48 games in the minors this year. While putting it altogether is easier said than done, Davis could be a nice power pick-up for the stretch run.
Dee Gordon
Once the Dodgers traded Rafael Furcal, the Dee Gordon era officially began. The 23-year-old shortstop struggling in his initial callup earlier this summer (.223 batting average in 23 games), but is a top of the lineup prospect with speed to burn. He may not hit many balls over the fence, but can spray them to the gaps, racking up doubles and triples in bunches. After stealing 73 bases in 2009, he swiped another 50 bags last season. Although his first go around with the big league club didn't last long, he did steal nine bases in 12 chances. Like most prospects, he may struggle at first, but at a position void of stars, he is one to watch.
Although their clubs were sellers, you should consider buying these players.

Long gone are the days that the word Cadillac is automatically associated with a nice present Jerry Seinfeld would make to his Florida-bound parents. With the CTS-V, the Caddy has already gone from tepid to torrid, and automobile tuner extraordinaire Hennessy has taken that platform and pumped it full of otherworldly steroids. The result is the VR1200, a machine so fantastically fast that it reaches 60mph in just 2.9 seconds and flies through the quarter mile in 10.2s. It does this thanks to its 7.0L twin-turbo V8 that pumps out an astonishing 1,066 rear wheel HP along with 964 lb-ft of rear wheel torque. If you're so foolish as to keep the pedal to the metal until it reaches its maximum, you'll be travelling at 242 mph, or just 10mph short of the Bugatti Veyron's early records.
Aside from 15.1inch carbon discs and massive Brembo callipers, the VR1200 has carbon fiber accents throughout. Interior luxury touches include an Alcantara layer for the steering wheel as well as upgraded leather and stitching.
So… the price tag? We… don't know. But they're only making 12, so it'll be one of those items that if you have to ask, you can't afford.

Ohad Lustgarten was inspired by the natural forms of the oasis, caves and trees when he designed his temporary shelter for his thesis project at Shenkar College of Design in Ramat Gan, Israel. All are considered signs of life in the harsh desert environment and he wanted to recreate that sense of life and provide safety. Shade & Shelter is a temporary shelter for those who need protection from the elements, especially the wind and sun in the desert. But the shelter could also be easily used in other environments and used for hikers in remote locations.
The shelter was designed to be made from extruded polymer slats connected together along a flexible fiberglass pole separated by rubber stoppers. The unit as a whole can stretch out to create a barrier or be wrapped up to provide more protection. Lustgarten's final thesis design was crafted of cardboard and stands 6 feet tall at its highest point to provide protection while standing and can be encircled and still provide enough space for a small group of people to lay down.
Lustgarten would like to incorporate thin film photovoltaics on the exterior to generate power that could be used for lighting or even charging devices. The slats have also been designed to collect and channel rainwater so inhabitants can have some drinking water. Eventually he would also like to build the shelter out of a class B metal so that it would respond to the heat of the sun and move and flex open as temperatures increased. However if it was too hot, the shelter could still be pulled closed to ensure maximum shade protection.

Species across the globe are facing pressures at the greatest level than ever before. Thousands of species are at risk of extinction from causes spanning global warming, deforestation, human encroachment and countless others. Another serious contributor to species decline is illegal trade in wildlife and wildlife parts.
This was discussed at great length at the recent meeting of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, or CITES. 175 nations belong to this organization, which recently met to discuss the future of numerous species and whether trade in particular species will be regulated or banned. A major outcome of the meeting was the impact the internet is having on species worldwide.
According to CITES, the internet is contributing greatly to illegal wildlife trade due to making it more widespread and easier to accomplish. A plethora of species have been subject to internet trading, including red and pink coral, Kaiser's spotted newt, tiger bones and products, ivory and living species from lions to monkeys.
Paul Todd, who works for the International Fund for Animal Welfare, stated: "The Internet is becoming the dominant factor overall in the global trade in protected species. There will come a time when country to country trade of large shipments between big buyers and big sellers in different countries is a thing of the past."
The International Fund for Animal Welfare has performed numerous examinations of online trade of species worldwide. They concluded that the most popular location for such trade is in the United States, however, it is also popular in China, Russia, Australia and Europe. Listings for particular species, products and parts are found in classified ads, auction sites and even chat rooms.
The kind of products available that have been discovered include tiger-bone wine, pelts from an array of species such as polar bears and leopards, and live lion cubs, ocelots and capuchin monkeys. Ivory is one of the largest sellers worldwide.

Published by Mofet, Y. Reisman, Ein Hakoreh 6, Tel Aviv. Telephone 32968
Zincography Gershon Caspi, Tel Aviv
During the Great Holocaust in the tragic years 1941-3, in which the beastly Nazis annihilated 6 million Jewish martyrs, also the Jews of Maytchet met their bitter end, on the first to third days of Av 5702 (1942).
The first day of Av was proclaimed to be the annual Yahrzeit of our dear martyrs, when the few survivors together with earlier pioneers gather in Israel to honor the memory of our dear ones.
After a long period of preparation and organizational work, we are publishing this Yizkor Book to honour the memory of the Jewish community of Maytchet and environs and their dear martyrs. We did our best to collect all possible material in notes and pictures, in order to bring light in these holy pages on the Jewish life which flowed in our town for many generations. It is our aim that this Yizkor Book shall serve as a worthy memorial candle for the blessed souls of the dear Jews, people of Torah and Tradition, Zionist and public leaders, social fighters and many plain people, righteous and merciful.
It is a great privilege to use this book for writing down for the coming generations the names and deeds of our dear ones. In their honor we compiled material about geography, history, society and culture, family notes and lists of our martyrs. We hope Zionists and public leaders, social fighters and many plain people, that the coming generations will read these pages and learn about their forefathers, the martyrs who were tortured and died for being Jews, and who in their death granted us our lives.
On this occasion we express our sincere thanks to all those who assisted us in our holy task, and especially to the editor, Mr. Ben-Zion H. Ayalon, who had edited many memorial books before, and who gave his utmost dedication to prepare and publish this worthy book.

The New York Times—April 30, 2010
Dayniah Manderson, 30, an immigrant from Jamaica, cannot walk or bathe herself. Since she needs help going to the bathroom, she skips breakfast and does not drink anything during the school day.
When Ms. Manderson's $35,000 motorized wheelchair rolls over aging blacktop and concrete, she feels every bump and crack in her bones; each sidewalk seam and tree root jolts a nerve. From the time she wakes up until the hour she is lifted into bed, each moment can be a reminder of what does not fit — a spirit that does not fit a body, a body that does not fit a wheelchair, a wheelchair that does not fit a world.
As a 2-year-old in Montego Bay, Jamaica, Dayniah clung to her mother, Millie Williams, when she was encouraged to walk. Doctors at a clinic in Kingston gave her a diagnosis of muscular dystrophy. Ms. Williams said one told her to "prepare a coffin."
Specialists said Dayniah had spinal muscular atrophy Type II, a degenerative neural disease that occurs in 1 in every 6,000 children. It is caused by a genetic defect. Motor control diminishes, muscles weaken and, eventually, movement ceases. The prognosis for Type II varies widely. But when Dayniah was doing research for a school paper on the disease, her heart sank: The encyclopedia said those who had it rarely lived beyond 30.
Most spines look like 6 o'clock — straight up and down; by the time she was 14, hers had folded to 5:40, a 111-degree angle. She could not hold herself upright in her chair. The more bent she became, the harder it was to breathe, as her ribs pressed down on her lungs.
Ms. Manderson had grown accustomed to people's saying she could not do what she wanted, and had learned to ignore the not-so-subtle admonitions that perhaps her ambitions were too big, given her disability. At a job fair, a principal warned her that the students might "throw her down the stairs." But another offered her a job.
Being a teacher, of course, did not stop the disease's progress. Breathing became something she had to work to do rather than an involuntary act. "I was waking up with pain, going to sleep with pain," Ms. Manderson recalled. "I'd cry every other day in the shower."
She knew time was running out, and was horrified at the thought of what would happen to Akasha. Dr. Shapiro said she thought she was a year away from having her spine collapse and began searching for surgeons. "No one would take her," Dr. Shapiro said. "It's very common because most people think, 'Why bother? She's going to die soon anyway.' "
Then, while watching the Discovery Channel, Dr. Shapiro learned about Dr. Oheneba Boachie-Adjei, an orthopedic surgeon who specialized in correcting severe spinal deformities. She called him and described her friend's condition. He agreed to take the case.
Dr. Boachie-Adjei, 59, has a deep voice that brims with a comforting confidence. Born in Ghana and educated at Columbia University, he practices at the Hospital for Special Surgery on the Upper East Side. Most years, he returns to West Africa and performs at least a dozen spinal surgeries at no charge.
By 2007, he had done the four-hour operation that Ms. Manderson needed 35 times before, but, he said, "it is always risky." The spine is exposed and untwisted. Steel bars are affixed to the vertebrae and anchored to the pelvis.
Ms. Manderson weighed the risks and the benefits: With the pressure relieved from her lungs and internal organs, she could expect to live an additional 10 to 20 years.
When Ms. Manderson awoke from the anesthesia on Feb. 6, 2008, she immediately knew something was different. "For the first time in my life," she said, "I could take a deep, full breath."

The Lace Sleeve Tee: Refashion a t-shirt by adding lace or embellished sleeves.
- Remove the sleeves from the t-shirt.
- Use the sleeve as the pattern.
- Fold your new fabric in half and place the sleeve along the fold. Cut the pattern out leaving a 1/2" border for seam allowance. Tip: use a fabric that has a scalloped edge or beaded trim so you don't have to finish the hems.
- Flip the shirt wrong side out and place the sleeve inside the arm hole (right sides together) and pin. I like to pin at the shoulder seam and along the sides. Sew into place.
- Sew the sleeve seams right sides together.
The Embellished Sweatshirt Update: Take an oversized sweatshirt to fashion-forward look by adding an embellished collar.
- Measure where you'd like the collar to be. I like to mark it out as well with tailors chalk or a fabric marking tool.
- I had this cool fringe appliqué in my stash. I pinned it into place and top stitched it.
- Then I cut away the excess leaving about a 1/4" edge.
- This was so big on me I did have to take in the sides of the sleeves and bodice.
- I kept the length because I'd wear it as a sweatshirt dress with tights.

Wanted to share our interview with the local news done last week to promote Annie's tour. We were so stinkin' nervous it was unreal, but somehow I think we managed to pull it off. At least we said everything we had wanted to say without any major mistakes. Enjoy.....(try not to laugh too much)

The season is really starting to take shape, so those falling behind the pace need to do something drastic. In other words, 'something stupid'. That is exactly what I'm going to be doing. Let's be clear, this goes only one of two ways. Either you hit a winner and begin your charge for the second half of the season, or you find yourself on google searching for methods on a quick and painless
death way to hibernate for the next 6 months. It's time to wash-up last weekend!
Gaff (146) – Dayne Beams summed Gaff's performance up in one tweet. "Does he smell?" I can't come up with a better explanation for him being allowed to collect 31 uncontested disposals with 15 marks. Interestingly he has laid just one tackle in both 140+ scores this season. Surely opposition teams will start shutting down some of his outside ball, because he certainly doesn't win much of it on the inside! That concerns me from a Fantasy perspective, but for now enjoy the ride.
Yeo (110) – I saw a few people barking off at half time when Yeo sat on 26 points. They quickly took a seat as we witnessed the greatest recovery since Eminem's album.
T.Mitchell (132) – What else is there to say? He's the most reliable bloke with two first names that I've ever seen.
S.Martin (134) – I'd say the same about Stef but I don't count Stefan as an actual name. If somebody told me their baby was called Stefan I'd probably lose it laughing. Baby Stefan. Nope.
Rockliff (130) – I thought Rocky was on track for another 160+, but I won't complain with his 260 points this week. Get well soon Sir Pig. I'm praying that he gets up this week but the Fantasy God's don't listen to prayers.
Zorko (125) – The Round 11 bye is a pain in the ass, but Zorko should thrive as Brisbane's main midfielder. He's currently averaging 117 and looks certain to be a top 8 midfielder. Gun.
Henderson (117) – After a cheap backman? Want to throw your season away? Then look no further than Ricky Henderson.
Billings (151) – On his day Jack is unstoppable. This week he posted a triple double with 5 goals. It doesn't get much better than that, however he seems just as likely to flop a 60 or a 70. Billings still spends most of his time up forward, and his low of 47 is a concern. One for the risk takers, he's certainly capable of averaging 100!
Cripps (143) – Man crush alert! Patrick Cripps has always been a contested ball, clearance beast. However he has just realised that he also stands at 6 ft 5! He took 11 marks (4 contested) to go with his 30 disposals, 5 tackles and 2 goals whilst sitting forward. I'm seriously jealous of those who took the punt when I first mentioned him @$556k a few weeks ago. He can be as good as Dangerfield and Fyfe, arguably at the moment he's better. Legend!
Docherty (127) – Another week and my regret for not picking Docherty burns ever stronger. Nothing wrong with Adams and Laird, but that third defensive premo was the way to go. He's yet to go below 90, is averaging 114 and averages 9.6 marks per game. Huge.
Murphy (122) – I got something right! Just a reminder, Murphy started the season priced at $482k and is averaging 119.4. Stuff 2011, the new Murphy is even better! I can only imagine the St Kilda player at fault last weekend was a frustrated non-owner.
Kelly (162) – Not sure what Josh Kelly is worth? Go and watch this game over and add a zero onto his contract. All we care about is his Fantasy price tag, and we can get him for a bargain $598k. Perfect week to get him, well aside from last week of course.
Merrett (150) – This performance had oink all over it. Having traded him in last week, I could finally watch Essendon without dying a inside. Zach does it all. Needless handball receives, cheap +6's late in quarters, he even takes kickouts for god sake! To himself, of course. However his ball winning ability aside, there's one important criteria for piggish behaviour. The love for hugs! He tackles like a machine, so when he's not getting cheap disposals he's getting +4's. I can't say anymore, just get him in and enjoy the show.
Jacobs (132) – Sam Jacobs is in beast mode this season, his average and price tag both just surpassed Brodie Grundy. I'd still go with Grundy now that Cox is gone, but Jacobs has been superb. I cannot believe I hardly even considered him when Spencer went down. I had Goldy in mind, but chased Mumford because he was about to eat Tom Boyd. Sure I couldn't have foreseen this kind of form, but he was hardly going to be worse than Mummy! At least he's capable of being more than just a human wrecking ball. Head shaker.
Viney (132) – Called it! Viney seems to be the type of player to go on scoring streaks, so if you jumped on last week good on you. I'd get him without hesitation this week, however his Round 11 bye is a killer.
Hill (123) – Fair play to Freo, I thought they were no hopers going into this season but Ross is proving me to be a fool! Brad Hill has just decided to transform into an unstoppable beast, recording 27 marks over the past two weeks. You'd have to say he looks like a certain top 6 forward, get on board! Tags might be the only worry if this form continues.
Boak (153) – What did they feed Travis over in China? I'm guessing it had a bit more flavour than Kenny's Ham and Cheese sandwich! If Port played in China every week then maybe I'd consider him… They don't.
Hall (134) – Meet my number one trade target in Round 10. Aaron Hall is capable of averaging 120+, he nearly has the perfect DT game. The only thing he was lacking is tackling intent, he has laid 16 in the past 2 weeks. In the first 6 Rounds he managed just 17… Tick. I'm tipping him to go big!
Sydney – The Swans are back! Having seen the return of the majority of their key players, they're starting to get a run of form going. More importantly, their midfielders have decided to hunt the footy again! Take your pick from their under priced options, Kennedy (122), Parker (121), Heeney (118) and Hannebery (117) are all on fire. Heeney looks like a must have forward while his price remains under $500k, whilst you can hardly split the three midfielders. I traded in Parker two weeks ago and couldn't be happier with where he sits. Don't be put off by his lack of tons, this score was coming. If he tidies up the free kicks he'll go huge! JPK is also a beast and priced too low to ignore @$528k, great pickup this week. I still can't trust a man who doesn't drink though.
Walters (137) – Ok, let's not panic here. Everybody calm down. IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN DEAR GOD HELP US. Michael Walters has made his yearly adventure into midfield and sure enough hes killed it. This year he has stepped it up a notch, pumping out 38 disposals, 7 marks and 6 clearances. Here are the facts. He's priced at $382k, roughly an average of 65. He has a Round 13 bye. He has scored 203 points in his last 6 quarters of football. If he plays in the middle he should comfortably average 90+. After such impactful performances he simply has to stay in the middle, even experts are applauding his efforts. But he's coached by Ross Lyon. And his name is Michael Walters. I have no idea what to do.
Newman (135) – Ok I had to trade Newman to avoid a donut therefore I refuse to talk about this. It makes me physically ill. Why was he ever dropped?! Instead I have Tom Williamson making no money scoring 40's. It has literally ruined my season. Cheers horse. Bastard. (Full credit to Newman for this performance)

Dahlhaus (70) – Back to shithaus. All in all things have worked out pretty evenly.
Liberatore (31) – Tom Liberatore's score of 31 was reached by the 13th minute mark of the second term. Basically, his performance was as effective as a concrete parachute. I suppose he's there for his 'leadership'? Help me out here because I'm really not sure.
Smith (62) – Isaac Smith is getting tagged. It's not as though we needed another reason to not trust owning him, but there it is.
Taylor (39) – Oh you thought Lewis Taylor had finally found his Fantasy potential?! Here's a nice score for your troubles. Draft burn.
Williamson (42) – If you watch Carlton play, it's hard to believe that one of their defenders can only manage 3 marks, two of which were intercepted! The ball is down there getting chipped around half the game, bloody get amongst it Tom! He should be on the chopping block, but I don't trust Heath Shaw anymore than I trust Malcolm Turnbull.
Fisher (39) – I wasted a trade to get this kid in, unbelievable. Sure it looks like he can play and Carlton clearly rate him, but there's one quite problematic issue. He doesn't actually do much.
Coniglio (82) – Sadly Coniglio received some shocking news on his bad ankle, he's set to miss another 10 weeks for it. Crisis presents opportunity and I expect Daniel Lloyd to take full advantage. He should be in for the byes!
Blicavs (33) – I thought Blicavs only role in Geelong's team was to be third man up and lay heaps of tackles? At the moment he's not being used as a ruckman and isn't laying a single tackle. Soooooooo… Why is he playing? Beats me.
Parsons (41) – Geelong rated Parsons enough to bring him straight back in after trying to break Hodge's jaw. In fairness there's plenty of players who've been there. More importantly he has held his spot over Aaron Black, and after his last 2 performances I want answers! I'm usually forgiving with rookies, but when they're keeping out my player you get no such liberties.
O'Connor (24) – Usually I'd be laughing at this score, but such is the state of my team in Round 11 I could use a heartbeat back there… *Shudders*
Tuohy (67) – I'd put this performance down to Geelong's lack of control in the game rather than Tuohy's lack of ball finding ability. He recovered from 19 at Half Time to post a semi respectable score. Needs to bounce back next week.
Selwood (70) – One tackle? You're an in and under midfielder and you lay one tackle. Safe to say this is not a new look uber premium Joel Selwood. He realised he was averaging WAY TOO high, time to bring it back down to 105. Doing it to perfection.
Sloane (63) – Yes, I didn't torch Sloane last week. The man had averaged 144 in his previous 5 games, can't hate too much on that. Consecutive 60's though? Rory is are you having a f**king laugh mate? It's a tag, not an amputation. He managed 11 disposals on the weekend. Thank god he still laid 12 tackles, because otherwise we might have seen a spike in recent searches for 'nearest bridge'. Even so, when your tackle count outnumbers your possession count there's a pretty big problem. His scores are absolutely hilarious, he hasn't scored between 68 and 132! It's all or nothing for Rory.
Just spare a thought for anyone who paid $728k for him. That would have to be the worst decision since someone thought 'Let's take this suspiciously large wooden horse into Troy, statues are all the rage this season'.
Hampton (52) – All the signs are suggesting that Hampton has peaked in value, however Adelaide play Brisbane this week. Knowing the type of scores he's capable of, I can almost guarantee he will ton up the week I trade him. Our decision could be made easier if he gets dropped this week, which is a massive possibility.
Otten (49) – Otten was forced to return to defence on Saturday, hence his poor score. What you should take into account is that he went forward in the last term, scored 23 points and missed 2 sitters while he was at it. Hopefully Jake Lever is back this week and Otten returns to the forward line.
Fyfe (75) – Seriously, was Fyfe's leg so much of a problem that Fremantle cloned him during the off-season? This is simply not Nathan Fyfe playing right now. In the past 5 weeks he has averaged 23 disposals, 4 marks and 3.5 tackles. Pathetic. I was bullish about his prospects this season, so there's no way I'm trading him for $519k. But the best player in the competition? In the top 5 even? No chance, he's nowhere near it at the moment. I wouldn't be surprised to see him rested in the coming weeks with some sort of niggle.
Balic (-) – Any danger of sorting that immune system out Harley? I'm starting to get worried that he won't just walk back into this winning Freo team again, and that would be a problem I simply can't afford heading into the byes. Cross your fingers.
Butler (38) – I've had to field Butler for 2 weeks this season out of pure necessity. Cheers to Black and Balic for dropping the ball, because Butler's 38 has ruined my week. He shouldn't be anywhere other than rotting on the bench, and the only reason he sits there is because my other duds can't even get a game. Putrid.
Miller (69) – This is gutting. I feel like I've been stabbed in the back. How much faith could I have shown?! With Rosa and Swallow out this week Miller was meant to be back in the guts and scoring well. Instead he's just become a high grade rookie. Chopped this week without a seconds hesitation.
Lynch (36) – I didn't see the game so I'm just going to presume Gold Coast didn't get the ball past halfway. That's Tom Lynch's biggest problem right now.
John Longmire – It's about time I did this. What an absolute moron. Why was Nic Newman not getting a game? Why are we all not cheering his massive 135 this week?! Oh, because John hates fun. He hates other people enjoying themselves almost as much as he hates young rookies playing well.
It's nominations time… Fire away!
Gaff – That was Dream Team in its purist form. 15 +6's!
Merrett – In a time of crisis, watching Zach Merrett run around for 2 hours heals any pain. He gets my vote for sure.
Kelly – Numerous coaches were adamant Kelly was going to fire this season, this week is your time to shine!
Billings – If you were strong enough to hold Billings during his shocking start to the season, his performance was vindication if I've ever seen it.
Newman – If you were in a good enough position to hold Newman, and an even better position of fielding him in the hope of a late inclusion… Get voting you smug bastards.
Who gets your vote?!
This Game Sh*ts Me
For the amount of time and effort I put into this game, it really doesn't give me that much satisfaction. It's funny how humans work. However watching our three little pigs do their thing brought me so much joy that I would completely forget about my other spud playing and scoring 40. How good is it watching a player and not stressing that they might play dodgeball and score 60, set up a deck chair at full forward or do everything in their power not to lay a tackle. Every chance to disposes a player, they take it. If they can sit on a bloke lying on the ground for a +4, they'll do the ugly stuff. On every switch of play you can guarantee they'll be finding a pocket of space to collect another +6. And of course every kick-out they're stationed 20 metres out from goal in the back pocket, unless they're kicking it to themselves already. It's the things that they don't really need to do to get the tick from their coach, but they do it for us. They do anything for the stat.
This was clearly too good to be true of course and most of us only got to enjoy it for one or two weeks. Now our King pig is injured and we have to bring in a replacement that doesn't give two sh*ts about how are Fantasy team is going. Why couldn't the Gods just let us have these three… This game really sh*ts me.
The Other Bits and Pieces
I had a horror week, scoring 2108 (Just keep in mind 3 players totalled for 542 points). I told myself in Round 1 that I wouldn't be short minded and I'd think long term, yet once again here I sit not making any long term improvements to my squad. I still have 7 rookies on my ground and it's proving to be catastrophic. Having passed on opportunities to get Ablett, Jacobs and Heeney I'm left in a position this week where it's make or break. That's right ladies and gentlemen, it's that time of season where Matt has realised his team is shocking so he does something utterly idiotic to make himself feel better until next weekend. So, as any insane person would do I'm bringing in Michael Walters. It should tick all boxes. I just need 4 decent games from him, FOUR. He has been so good in the midfield that I see no way he can get dumped straight back into the forward line. Of course what I'm forgetting is that it's Ross Lyon and Michael Walters. Even if he does get midfield time there are no guarantees I won't be head-butting my wall in a few weeks time, but I
have want to gamble.
Rockliff to Heeney and Miller to Walters, leaving me with a monstrous $431k kitty heading into Round 10. The goal is for Aaron Hall to come in next week, followed by Gazza in Round 11. Bang, bang. Or so I hope, return next week so find out how f**ked up sh*t gets and how I'm coping with it. Good luck this week as always! Pray for me.

Down from the ledge there big fella… although Walters is very cheap!
Matt, awesome write up, many thanks!! I'm tossing up between these 2 trades..
1 helps my rookie situation and bye structure, the other gets me Heeney
1. Rocky/Polson to Shuey/Lloyd – This sorts out my rookie bench cover
2. Rocky/Z.Jones to Shuey/Heeney – This gets me a top 6 FWD
ATM, I have 14 out in Rd 11, so if I go the Heeney option, BEST CASE is I play 19, if all my rookies get named (McNiece, Balic, Mountford, Preuss included), but if I go the Lloyd option, I could have 20, but I miss out on Heeney at this price……
Not Polson – leave him where he belongs: in the sin bin.
Haha…good job Matt & Goodluck with Walters,hopefully he hits a month of form.Any confirmation as to the extent of Rockpigs injury yet?
Not just yet but a shoulder will likely be 2 weeks plus the bye. Just get rid of him while you can :)
Rocky to Zerrett and Sloane to Waite?
Leaves me 168k
Theory is get the other pig while I can, Sloane is a cheaper buyback after R13. Waite has the R12 bye.
In stock market parlance I'm going short Sloane an long Waite.
Have I lost the plot?
It works from the wordplay angle
Ok, am I mad trading out Sloane, am I mad getting Waite, or both?
If Rocky is out, forced trade, re-buy after R11. Throws the run of the mill up/down trades out the window. Rocky out, Zerrett in. No brainer if I already got Titch, yes?
So what to do with the last trade? Looking to bring a R12 bye player in, I suppose I could do a sideways with Hampton maybe?
Of course, other selection table issues might pop up (ok, will almost certainly pop up) so this is really all academic anyway.
See my comments below on Sloane.
Not mad trading Sloane – BE of 182, you're only losing money. Get rid of him until Round 14. This weekend he will smash out a 140 guaranteed as he's versing the Lions, but in no way is that BE worth keeping him for now. He'll be sweet to go after Round 13 (Adelaide's bye) and you'll get him off the discount shelf.
Was tossing up between Merrett and Sloane for captaincy last week. Went with Zach at the last minute. Dodged a 174 bullet there.
Agree Horse needs to go to the glue factory for his treatment of Newman. Fortunately, I kept Newman and put him on the ground last week with Vickers as emergency cover. He'll probably get dropped this week to work on his defensive game.
I envy you.. was in the exact same situation but went with Rory saying "surely lightning couldn't strike twice"
How wrong I was!!
Zach is captain from now on!
Great Article matt,
Do i upgrade Fyfe this week to Zach, or do it next week and upgrade Otten to Heeny this week as he is still underpriced?
Thoughts on this trade:
Rocky to Adams (straight swap almost points wise)
Hampton to Burton
Leaves me with only 3k however I need max points have some tough league games coming up and I'm in a 3-5 hole in the league. Need W's more than $$ this week
Great article Matt, feeling your pain after my disaster round…I ended up with 2109…so virtually the same… bloody Horse screwed me with Newman, he was on my bench while Hampton stunk it up on field….But I can top you in the disaster stakes…I traded in Rocky last Friday…was set to be Zerret all week til I changed my mind late….oh and I got Treloar on the bench injured too!!!
Hats off to all in the top 1k this year….you guys are getting it done!!
Yeh well Patrick Cripps is about 6ft 7 so u were a little bit off matt.
Loved the article Matt thanks… Cripps is 6ft5/195cm according to my afl app
He was actually listed at 190cm last year and apparently had a growth spurt this year so now around 195cm. That's about 6'4 1/2. 6'7 is ruck man height!
Brought in R. Sloane two weeks ago. Lost $60k (so far). Tossed a coin between him and Z. Merrett. I'm an Essendon member and want to /wrists.
Forced into having Treloar on the bench last week. Now Rocky!? Feel your pain Mat. Great article … nice to know others are as unlucky (stupid) as me!
In exactly the same place Evan, except I'm a Crows fan and that probably swayed the decision the Sloane way.
As above, thinking that his 182 BE will see him rapidly bleed value, even if he can shake the tag and pump out some 110s.
Speaking as an engineer, the pricing filter response is prone to overshoot/undershoot and lag in response to significant form changes. Consequently I'm thinking of trading him out on the way down and looking to pick him up again on the undershoot. He has 4 more games before the bye, and will probably bottom out after 2-3 more games, so timing is not good here.
You could be me. I'm looking at Rocky to Merrett this week, but it's painful.
I'm thinking Rocky + Miller to Heeney and Yeo via dpp, leaves me with Houston and Hampton to trade next week and looking to get Ablett or Hall next week
Yeah do it… that's a winner!
It triggers me so hard how everyone is talking about getting Aaron Hall in two weeks after I traded him out… NEVER TRADE YOUR PREMOS EARLY!!
No one can blame you for losing faith after his putrid start. Having said that, I will be bringing him in for sure next week :)
Yes, if Hampton is dropped the gods will have spoken (i.e.: trade him now!).
Gray > yeo and balic > lloyd….
Going to go either Touk and Houston for Heeney and Lloyd and have 150k left over
Or same two spuds to Docherty and a 150k mid plus 6k.
Tempted By Son Son as well but I will give him another week…
Is Scott Selwood a viable option? Thinking of trading Pickett to him, or my other option is to trade Otten to any defender.
Aaron Black was not listed in the 'In the mix' article on afl.com.au.
No chance or oversight?
It's written by an afl.com.au journalist, and it means precisely nothing that he wasn't on there. Was a borderline selection last week for a team that lost, so every chance he gets a run this week.
Put your hand up if you'd like to "sledge" Marc Murphy's wife
Zerrett, Hanners, JPK or Parker in for Rocky? If I go one of the Sydney boys I can get Heeney in for Butler.

The Tainted Cauldron. is a heavy large Artifact cauldron located at the centre of the plateau. it continuesly bubbles and trembles and steaming the tainted cloud up to the grey cloudy sky. this is the same cloud that corrupted Ravenshire. The Cauldron was created by Doresain King of Ghouls[1], Doresain also created the 3 negative portal located at The Ziggurat of Flesh, The Skull Abbey and at The Howling Roots.The 3 negative Portal are empowering the cauldron to continue creating its foul cloud. Doresain commissioned go-goroth to protect the cauldron and the portals.
Doresain gave him enough undead minions to take over a local Gnoll tribe and Convert them to his ways. Because of its continuous steaming and trembling the cauldron is connected to the ground by 4 large metal cahins. In case of the destruction of all the negative portals and the destruction of go-goroth. the tainted cauldron will loose all of its megical purposes and will shatter and stop.
