DON"T FORGET TO TAKE PHOTOS OF YOUR PHONES AND YOUR IMEI/SERIAL NUMBERS PRIOR TO SHIPPING just in case there is a dispute with the stated condition.
SHIPS FOR FREE too!
Wish we can buy some of these smartphones packages at these prices but dealing with a fellow RFD or Kijiji buyer can sometimes be a pain.
Excellent condition Sony Experia Ray --> slight profit for those who got it for $99.
Excellent condition Galaxy Nexus:
Excellent condition Galaxy S3
Excellent condition Samsung Nexus S Smartphone (I could even make some money reselling my Telus refurbished phone)
Excellent condition HTC Wildfire S Smartphone --> no arbitrage here.

What if they deem the condition not as you stated? will they return the phone back to you if you dont accept their new offer?
Edit: Nevermind, found the answer: Remember, if you don't agree with their assessment, you can have your device shipped back to you at no cost.

Large scale High Performance Computing and Communication (HPCC) applications (e.g. Video-on-Demand, and HPDC) would require storage and processing capabilities which are beyond existing single computer systems. The current advances in networking technology (e.g. ATM) have made high performance network computing an attractive computing environment for such applications. However, using only high speed network is not sufficient to achieve high performance distributed computing environment unless some hardware and software problems have been resolved. These problems include the limited communication bandwidth available to the application, high overhead associated with context switching, redundant data copying during protocol processing and lack of support to overlap computation and communication at application level. In this paper, we propose a multithreaded message passing system for parallel/distributed processing that we refer to as NYNET communication system (NCS). NCS, being developed for NYNET (ATM wide area network testbed), is built on top of an ATM application programmer interface (API). The multithreaded environment allows applications to overlap computations and communications and provides a modular approach to support efficiently HPDC applications with different quality of service (QOS) requirements

Statutory Corporate Tax Rates and Double-Taxation Treaties as Determinants of Multinational Firm Activity
This paper analyzes the influence of statutory corporate tax rates on profits and of double-taxation treaties (DTTs) on multinational firm (MNE) activity at the micro level. It provides an assessment of the effects of these profit tax instruments on the extensive and the intensive margin of activity. In particular, we estimate two-part quasi-maximum-likelihood models using panel data on the foreign activity of German MNEs in the decade 1996-2005 and find that statutory tax rates affect MNE activity negatively both at the extensive and at the intensive margin of investment, while DTTs primarily induce a positive effect at the extensive margin.

What Is A European
By A. S. Byatt
Published: October 13, 2002
In 1948 at the Congress of Europe, Winston Churchill said, ''We hope to see a Europe where men of every country will think of being a European as of belonging to their native land, and . . . wherever they go in this wide domain . . . will truly feel 'Here I am at home.''' The exiled diplomat Salvador de Madariaga said: ''This Europe must be born. And she will, when Spaniards say 'our Chartres,' Englishmen 'our Cracow,' Italians 'our Copenhagen,' when Germans say 'our Bruges.' . . . Then will Europe live. For then it will be that the spirit that leads history will have uttered the creative words: fiat Europa.''
Now, in 2002, we ask whether it is possible or, indeed, desirable, to turn the European Union into a United States of Europe. Do European people -- inside and outside the nations currently members of the E.U. -- feel that they have a European identity that is as strong as, or stronger than, their current national identities? Americans have become interested in these questions recently, since, to them, what seems to characterize Europeans is their opposition to U.S. policies, especially in the Middle East, particularly in Iraq. But in fact European identity is far more complicated.
For the past few months I have asked every European I met if he or she felt European, and what it was to be a European. When I travel in taxis in New York I meet enthusiasts who have recently immigrated to the States from European countries -- Russians and Poles, British Asians. They speak with fervor of ''this great country,'' offering just a little criticism. They are converts. London taxi drivers will tell you that Brussels has designs on you -- ''they'' want to homogenize everyone into citizens of a federal Europe run by someone else, somewhere else. But practically these drivers are Europeans. One spends his weekends fishing in Holland with a Dutch friend. Another saves to take holidays with five friends in alternate European capitals, which they research thoroughly beforehand, gastronomically and culturally. They understand and admire the tactical superiority of continental European soccer and the superior verbal skills of European soccer players who play in England and can speak with wit and point on our television.
The French, on the whole, make more assertive claims to a European identity. My French publisher said, when asked: ''Naturally, I am first a European. And within that, I am French.'' I live in southern France in the summer. A lady I meet regularly on a mountainside, tending a goat and some chickens, said: ''Of course I feel myself European. With all these agreements we now have.'' When I pressed her on what that meant, she said, ''Je suis du type Européen.'' She spread her arms toward the four corners of the globe. ''You have Africa, and Asia -- and over there you have America -- and here, we are European.'' It was interesting that she saw Americans as a single -- non-European -- ''type.''
Other Europeans tend to feel that the French claim a European identity very easily because they imagine European culture and European priorities as an extension of French culture and priorities. They have been prime movers in the shaping of the European Union. Larry Siedentop, in his perspicacious and very illuminating book ''Democracy in Europe,'' points out that the European bureaucracy is modeled on the French bureaucracy because of French enthusiasm and persistence. He goes on to claim that ''the French political class has been far more skillful than that of Germany, or indeed, than that of any other major European nation.'' The danger he perceives for Europe in this is that any further political unification will be on a French model -- with a centralized government and a dirigiste elite civil service.
In April, Romano Prodi, an Italian and the current president of the European Commission -- the European Union's executive body- criticized the British for defensiveness and timidity with regard to playing their ''full part'' in Europe, while they behaved (in a comparison he excised before he gave the speech) like the tiny back wheel of a penny-farthing bicycle in the ''special relationship'' with the States. But I have not detected any strong sense of European identity among Italians I know. One wrote in answer to my question that, after seeing the restored frescoes of Piero della Francesca in Arezzo, she felt culturally European, ''even if probably I feel more Italian.'' ''Politically, if the Enlightenment, if liberté, égalité, fraternité, if the ideals of the anti-Fascist and anti-Nazist men and women still were political European feelings (not only cultural issues), well, I could feel politically European, but they're not. I really hate this European fortress, this cold Euro-fortress.''
From another point of view, Italy feels very distant from the centers of European power. I was discussing the increasing split between the north and south of that (in European terms) recently unified country, on a boat crossing from Capri to Naples. I said to the group of Italian journalists and university teachers I was with that perhaps Europe would provide a place in which intense local identities could co-exist more easily than in nation-states. I mentioned British hopes for separate parliaments in Scotland and Northern Ireland, co-existing within a European economy and community. I mentioned the new confidence of the once-oppressed Catalans in Spain. The Italians smiled into the Mediterranean sunlight at my naïveté. ''The people here know and care nothing about Europe,'' they said. ''They hate the people in the next village. Europe is nothing.''

Great Zombie survival game that keeps you on your heels and is very challenging. Your people keep living even when your not playing. The ability to add new members to your group and grow it is fun and needed because your going to lose people, don't get attached. My only complaint is the lack of coop or multilayer support.
Zombie games have been beaten to death (pun intended)! There are probably more of these than zombie movies at this point and even there are tonnes of those. And then along comes State of Decay and say's, "Hey look at me, I'm awesome!" And it right! This proves that you don't need hoard modes to make zombie games good! Just an open world and a story and you have yourself a kickass game! If you're hesitant to buy this, just do it! Seriously! Sink in the hours and you'll end completely satisfied!
Two perspective. Being awesome: The game is awesome and probably one of the best open world game out. There are zombies, the need of scavenging supplies, finding survivors and finding a potential home. It's all good and decent. And it's open world. You can go wherever you like and scavenge wherever you like. Probably one of the best implementation of the open-world survival zombie game concept. The zombies can also overrun you especially if there's a horde. My companion actually got killed, torn apart, like his body was split into two and that was horrifying sight to see, so settle with a car. ALWAYS. Being dumb: AI is pretty dumb, they cannot use cars, like they have to jog from your home to a scavenge post 2000m away from them. They run into zombie horde and can get killed unless you help them. There are few to almost non-existent zombie invasion to your home (I got hit once). The neighbors suck so much. They cannot fend for themselves, and they're mostly ignored by zombies (I mean there's this one neighbor, his place is getting swarmed by zombies, and he's there standing right in the middle of their territory where he could get killed. The story is quite dumb too and too light in my opinion. There are side quests throughout your neighbors but it's just too few. There are also no hostile survivors in which I wanted to see like they invade your home for supplies and such. Overall, the game is awesome, unique and fun. They deserve a high rating.
State of Decay is ugly. Let's just get that out of the way. I mean really ugly. I have a powerful machine and sometimes the framerates chug and the screen tearing is out of this world. Zombies (called Zeds in the game) will fall through the scenery and there are weird bugs abound. None of that matters this game still will rock your socks. This is the perfect open-world zombie apocalypse survivor sim. If that is what you are looking for look no further. You have to lead a group of survivors whom you can switch between (there is no main character) level up with different skills and keep everyone happy, healthy and fed. It is difficult, frustrating and even heartbreaking. There is serious perma-death you can lose characters whom you have spent hours leveling up if you get too cocky. You can choose a variety of specialties and the game does all of them relatively well. You can level up a variety of skills in order to make a diverse set of characters, from sharpshooters to brawlers to sneaky scavengers and everything in between. There is just enough story to keep things interesting but if you are looking for a strong story driven narrative this is maybe not the game you are looking for. If you use a mouse and keyboard I can't speak for their efficiency but the controls with an Xbox controller work well. Overall, in an over-saturated zombie market this game stands above pretty much everything else.
Game is done pretty good! The Combat system for me was/is fluid and very fun. You can easily destroy 5-10 zombies. I enjoy it even more with the breakdown dlc. The NPCS during combat are amazing, they arent crap in like some other zombie games, they do so much damage a full crew of 4 could likely take out 200 zombies. The environments are pretty good as well. You always feeling like youre in a random farm or in a little suburb, largely because the zombie variety is so good as well!

PartitionMagic 4.0
Manufacturer: PowerQuest
E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
URL: http://www.powerquest.com
Price: $69.95 ($29.95 upgrade)
Reviewer: Roderick Smith
PowerQuest was the first company to develop a popular commercial product to modify a computer's partitions non-destructively. Developed originally for OS/2 and then ported to DOS and MS Windows, previous versions of PartitionMagic have been able to create, destroy, resize and copy FAT-16, FAT-32, HPFS and NTFS partitions, as well as convert from FAT-16 to any of the other formats. Needless to say, this has been a great boon to those with multiple operating systems, since it frees them from the tyranny of fixed partition sizes, allowing changes to disk resource allocation without the need to back up to tape, re-partition and restore. Up to version 3.05, however, PartitionMagic included no Linux-specific support. We could modify file systems for DOS, MS Windows and OS/2, but if we needed to modify Linux file systems, we had to do the backup/re-partition/restore dance or use various other workarounds, such as creating new partitions for spillover from existing partitions. PartitionMagic 4.0 promises to change this, with support for Linux EXT2 and Linux swap partition types.
PartitionMagic 4.0 contains an impressive array of features for partition management. These features are included:
The ability to create and delete partitions: when created, partitions can be formatted for FAT-16, FAT-32, HPFS, NTFS, EXT2 or Linux swap. Partition table entries will automatically be marked with the appropriate file system type.
The ability to move and resize partitions: this feature applies to all supported partition types, including Linux swap. For FAT, allocation block sizes are adjusted automatically as appropriate. Unlike previous versions of PartitionMagic, 4.0's move and resize features are integrated into one. Partitions can be moved and resized in one user-interface operation and they can be resized towards or away from the beginning of the drive as well as the end. Such operations may result in two or more actual actions, however.
Partition copy: this copies a partition from one location to another, including across physical disks, and works with all supported partition types. This makes it possible to replace a hard drive easily by copying multiple operating systems to a new drive with a single program. The copies are fast, too; I timed a copy of my Linux /home directory from one drive to another at 3:40 in PartitionMagic, vs. 5:38 using a tar pipe in Linux. The downside is that the copy seems to be doing a semi-raw copy followed by (if necessary) a resize, meaning that fragmentation is maintained on the copy.
The Boot Magic boot loader: this utility manages the booting of multiple operating systems. In principle, it is much like LILO; when installed to a partition, it resides on a FAT partition and re-directs the boot process to another partition. It is graphical in nature, however, so may be more user friendly in operation than LILO. Boot Magic, like LILO but unlike OS/2's Boot Manager, does not require the allocation of its own partition.
The ability to manage (but not create) IBM Boot Manager partitions: this may be of interest to OS/2 users and those who installed Boot Manager using PartitionMagic 3.0x.
File system conversion: FAT-16 file systems can be converted to FAT-32, HPFS or NTFS (but not to EXT2). FAT-32 partitions can be converted to FAT-16 partitions.
Drive integrity checks: this performs operations similar to those done by Linux's e2fsck or MS Windows' CHKDSK or SCANDISK.
Operation from DOS or MS Windows: the OS/2 native executable has been dropped, and there is no native Linux version. Linux users can create a working system from Linux alone, however, as described below.
Batch mode operation: a series of partition changes can be set up which PartitionMagic will then run in sequence. This allows you to do other things while your computer re-configures itself unattended. In case of an error, the batch execution will halt.
"Wizards" to advise and help guide the user through processes such as balancing free disk space, adding a new operating system, etc.
In addition, PartitionMagic has a handful of other features that are of interest primarily to DOS or MS Windows users. For example, it has the ability to move applications from one FAT partition to another and diagnostics to help determine the best possible partition sizes for optimum FAT allocation block use.
PartitionMagic is available for download directly from PowerQuest's web site (via an on-line secure order form that asks for a credit card number) and as a retail package. I purchased my copy via the web site, using my existing 2.02 license number to obtain the upgrade pricing. The entire download is on the order of 50MB, so you will need several hours and/or a fast net connection if you choose to get it in this way. I received ample documentation in Adobe PDF format.
The program is definitely geared towards MS Windows users: when burned to CD, the files create a CD that includes an auto-install program when inserted into a MS Windows machine. Some of the more esoteric features seem to be present only in the MS Windows version of the program, but the one of greatest potential interest to Linux users, Boot Magic, requires a FAT partition to operate in the first place, so this is not a major loss. The installation files include a directory called "linux" which contains two disk images that can be copied to blank 1.44MB floppies. The first of these is a bootable OpenDOS 7.01 disk image with the main DOS PartitionMagic 4.0 executable and a few support files, including a Microsoft mouse driver. The second image includes help files for accessing PartitionMagic's help system from the first disk. Thus, those with Linux and no other OS can still use PartitionMagic by booting this floppy. It can, of course, be customized with other mouse drivers or features. Some of my testing, described below, was done with this DOS disk and some of it was done with MS Windows. Aside from the "Wizards", the DOS and MS Windows versions of the program perform similarly.

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment
July 20, 2016 12:00 pm CDT
One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

In a landmark for molecular gastronomy in America, the movement's top proponent, Wylie Dufresne, gets his third star for wd-50. A historic review, especially as Frank Bruni expresses the usual reservations about overly cerebral cooking. [NYT] Bar Boulud finally gets some respect from Alan Richman, who praises its blue-ribbon charcuterie and says of its much-maligned mains, "The worst that can be said…is that the recipes are relentlessly conventional — lamb stew, roasted chicken, boudin blanc. The best is that such a style of cooking is terribly missed." [GQ] Restaurant Girl seems to have been distinctly unimpressed with about half of the dishes she tried at Adour, resulting in a lukewarm, two-and-a-half-star review.

text: SAN DIEGO ( TheStreet) -- Each morning, RealMoney's Dan Fitzpatrick talks about three stocks featured on CNBC's "Fast Money" and "Mad Money," offering his thoughts on how investors can use those ideas to grow their money. Today's stocks include: SPDR Gold Trust ETF (GLD), Apple (APPL), and Verizon (VZ). Gold has been in a long-term uptrend and Fitzpatrick said that he sees this trend continuing. But in the short term, he thinks gold, which is trading well above the 50-day moving average, is overbought. After hitting record highs this month, it has started to pull back. And for short term investors, he said now is a good time to take some profits -- wait for a pullback to buy more gold. The next stock he looked at was Apple, which has also been in a steady uptrend. Fitzpatrick says the 200-day moving average defines support. Last week, the stock moved back to the 50-day moving average before turning around -- this is a stock to be long on and to buy on any pull back, says Fitzpatrick. The last stock Fitzpatrick looked at was Verizon, which has been dealing with a worker strike, pressuring the stock. Verizon has a 5.6% yield which will increase as the stock falls. Support is at $32.28 and the stock is currently trading around $34 -- Fitzpatrick recommends keeping a stop just below support.

The hyperglycemic responses to trichlormethiazide (4 or 8 mg daily) and chlorthalidone (50 or 100 mg daily) for eight weeks were evaluated in 27 hypertensive patients. Twelve patients were diabetic, seven prediabetic, and eight nondiabetic. There was a significant increase in the two-hour blood sugar after an oral glucose load in all three groups. The fasting blood sugar increased significantly by the first week of treatment in the diabetics and by the last week of treatment in the prediabetics, but there was no significant change in the nondiabetics. Alterations of the fasting and two-hour blood sugar were not dependent on drug or dose. Serum potassium, sodium, amylase, and uric acid were measured and showed no correlation with the changes in the two-hour blood sugar. Permanent diabetes was not induced in any of the nondiabetic or prediabetic patients.

Fantasy Football with Scott Engel
Send your questions now and join Engel in The Show on Friday at 3 p.m. ET!
Fantasy Football Archive: Chats | Fantasy Home Page
Mike G Sacramento CA
I'm in a 1 player keeper league and need to make a decision between Rudi and Maroney. I'm leaning towards Maroney, what do you think?
Scott Engel (3:01 PM)
Good afternoon everyone! I definitely like Maroney over the longer term, even if Rudi outperforms him in 2007
Marauder Mike (Columbus, OH)
Scott, Three of my four keepers are McNabb (hurt), Gore (hurt) and LJ (holdout). Can you offer any hope for this ragtag bunch of misfits?
Scott Engel (3:03 PM)
McNabb is looking good in camp and Gore will be ready for the season. LJ's holdout won't last forever - you're not playing any games yet, so don't get too down on your squad yet
Ray (tampa , fl)
Alexander or Addai?
Scott Engel (3:05 PM)
That's a close one, but I slightly prefer Alexander because he is more proven and I don't think he is quite finished yet
Joel (East Longmeadow, MA)
Scott, I really need your input. We're about to start a league with 16 teams. I'm afraid it's going to suck for several reasons. But since our rules are not set yet I would like your suggestions for ways to keep a really deep league like this competitive. Individual defensive players? PPR? Please help!!!
Scott Engel (3:06 PM)
I undesrand sometimes it's hard to say no and you want to include as many people as possible - you have to limit roster sizes - only one required starting RB, two WR and a flex.
Simon (Wyckoff, NJ)
How much effect will Morency's injury have on Brandon Jackson? Do you think he claims the starting job? Many thanks.
Scott Engel (3:08 PM)
He hasn't looked great in camp so far - I think he could end up splitting carries with Noah Herron if Morency continues to battle injuries. In fact, Herron could end up getting playing time because the Pack can't count on anyone else
Goat Cheese McDougle (DC)
How much do the RB rankings change for a PPR league? Would a guy like Reggie Bush become top 6 or 7?
Scott Engel (3:08 PM)
Bush definitely is in that level in PPR - check out my PPR rankings in the left rail of the Draft Kit
Mike (DC)
How much does the holdout hurt LJ? Should Gore be drafted third ahead of him in a 12 team 1 keeper league (first year as a keeper league)?
Scott Engel (3:10 PM)
Time missed affecsts conditioning and the ability to get into the flow with your teammates, - right now, I rank LJ sixth behind LT, Jackson, Gore, Alexander and Addai
Clint - Boston
I have Kitna in my top 5 QBs. Am I crazy?
Scott Engel (3:12 PM)
Yes, you are! LOL - I don't have him in my top 10. Top five is Manning, Plamer, Breees, Brady, Bulger - Kitna is not better than any of those guys - too many turnovers and not enough ability - adding another weapon doesn't make him a better QB
Dan (Denver)
Hey Scott I'm looking to defend my title and I need your help. I'm in a 14 team keeper league and I have Steven Jackson. Should I go with back to back picks of QB/QB or QB/WR assuming that the 2nd group of top 10 RB are gone?
Scott Engel (3:14 PM)
I think you should adjust on the run, and loosely stick to getting another RB, one more WR and a QB in rounds two to four
Hector (Key West)
Where does Rivers fit in your QB rankings?
Scott Engel (3:14 PM)
He cracks my top 10 - smart kid, Turner will help a lot, and he makes good decisions
Simon (Wyckoff, NJ)
Does Pace's return maybe push Bulger ahead of Brady? Many thanks.
Scott Engel (3:16 PM)
I don't think so, as Brady has better weaponry and will thrown downfield more this year - but that doesn't mean Bulger won;'t be good - he can set a new career high in TD passes this year
Dan (Lake Oswego)
Scott, is there much seperation between Evans and Driver?
Scott Engel (3:17 PM)
I think they are very close in terms of production, but I slightly prefer Evans, who is a bit more explosive and a slightly better possession guy - well, he will become better on both counts this year
Dan (Huntsville, AL)
Willie Parker said in training camp that he wants to be better than LT. Will he be even close this year?
Scott Engel (3:18 PM)
I doubt it, but he's setting goals for himself to be more of a workhorse and you can look for another fine year
Mark (Kearny, NJ)
How can you say Brady has better weaponry than Bulger? Moss is not what he used to be and Stallworth is overrated. I'll easily take Bulger over Brady. I trust Holt, Bennett, Bruce, McMichael, and some guy named S-Jax a lot more.
Scott Engel (3:20 PM)
Better downfield weaponry - the St. Louis offense is based more on short drops and quick hits, and the Rams will run the ball more than the Pats - I meant the Pats will likely thrown downfield more
Tim (San Diego)
You "doubt" Parker will achieve his goal of being better than LT?!
Scott Engel (3:21 PM)
I doubt he will come anywhere close to LT - but it's good for him to set such goals and should encourage his owners
is there any player(s) who you personally refuse to draft no matter what?
Scott Engel (3:23 PM)
My all-avoid team - Grossman, Ahman, Fred Taylor, Chambers, Jerry Porter, Dallas Clark
Lou (San Diego)
Given the coaching change and the fact that it's not last season anymore, hwo close do you feel LT and S-Jax are? An argument has to be made that a regression to the mean for LT and S-Jax being much younger makes them comparable in a keeper league no??
Scott Engel (3:25 PM)
I don't agree - LT ha splayed under Turner before and is more proven than Jackson, who could see his workload slightly reduced this year. I don't see any need to boost Jackson to No. 1 anyway - nothing wrongw ith being No. 2 and he still carries your team
Eric (Mountain View, CA)
Where do you put Andre Johnson's value this year with a new quarterback?
Scott Engel (3:26 PM)
I don't adjust it much - Schaub has no regular season experience and the talent is still lacking at WR other thna AJ
Cody Philly
Scott, talk me out drafting V Davis before guys like Shockey and the other top 5 TEs. I think Davis has a huge year. Thanks
Scott Engel (3:27 PM)
I think he has a huge year, too - but I can't bring myself to take him over a more proven guy like Shockey, who still hasn't delivered his best year yet
Tom (Fairfield CT)
...picking Peyton with my #7 pick in the first round...is this crazy? (all tds worht 6 pts)
Scott Engel (3:28 PM)
Not at all - he's the safest pick in fantasy football!
SprungOnSports (Long Island)
Why does Jason Witten always get overlooked when we're talking about the top TE's? Show the man some love, Scott!
Scott Engel (3:29 PM)
I will when he starts to find the end zone again :)
Kurt (Wilmington, NC)
With Gore's history of fumbling problems, does his broken hand drop him out of the top 5 elite backs?
Scott Engel (3:30 PM)
No, I don't believe it does - he was able to curb that after awhile last year and should only affect him very early, if at all
Joe (NYC)
I have Brandon Jacobs ranked as the 10th best RB right now. Is that insane?
Scott Engel (3:32 PM)
I think you are overrating him for sure - I think he can be top 15, though. There are several other backs who are more proven or have even more upside
greg (ohio)
if LJ slipped to sixth, would it be crazy to take willie parker over him?
Scott Engel (3:33 PM)
It would not be crazy if LJ is still holding out when you draft
Jeremy (Blacksburg, VA)
Another big time question: I know Steve Smith is a beast, but do you think Chad Johnson could challenge him for best fantasy WR this year? Considering Palmer's progress and their timing on deep routes. Thanks Scott
Scott Engel (3:34 PM)
CJ is top three for sure - he's not going to be as dependable as Smith - I don't see what's wrong with CJ being top three - he doesn't have to be better than Smith to be great -
Anthony (NYC)
Between Robert Meachem and Dwayne Bowe(if he ever signs) which of these rookie receievers is gonna be worthy of a late round pick?
Scott Engel (3:36 PM)
Bowe has a chance to start this year, but Meachem will likely be brought along slowly and should be behind Devery Henderson on the depth chart
Todd (OC, CA)_
What is Jason Cambell's sleeper value. I think he's bound for a huge year!
Scott Engel (3:38 PM)
I think he can be a good fantasy reserve. He doesn't have enough weaponry, but I think he will also take care of the ball well
Chuck (NY, NY)
I've heard big things about Steve Smith, that is Rookie NY Giants reciever Steve Smith. late round possibility?
Scott Engel (3:40 PM)
You'll always read positive stories in camp and should avoid the hometown hype - Smith won;t be worth a draft pick in most yearly leagues - looking good to the team and being fantasy worthy can be two different things
Andrew (Calgary)
Where does Matt Leinhart fit in? He's got talent around him, will he be a breakout monster fantasy wise this year?
Scott Engel (3:41 PM)
I wouldn't say "monster" year,a s Whisenhunt wants to run the ball a lot. But he can certainly be a good starter in a 12-team league if the Cards improve and don't force him to play from behind too much
David (Kalispel, MT)
Greg Olsen has gotten rave reviews over at the Bears camp, is he too big of a risk with Rex Grossman throwing the ball?
Scott Engel (3:43 PM)
Olsen is a risk because he is a rookie and that great play won't always translate into regular season stardom - not yet - and it's really not connected to the QB - if Grossman throws enough, Olsen will get the ball
Mark (Jacksonville, FL)
What kind of season would you expect from Travis Henry with Cutler in Denver? And are they going with the committee approach as they've been in the past?
Scott Engel (3:44 PM)
There's not going to be a committee - Henry was acquired so the Broncos no longer have to use a committee - Shanahan wants a return to the Terrell Davis days - he used committees because of injuries or not having guys who could haul a full load
mike - ca
Mcgahee, Gore, Palmer and s. smith. Pick 2. Thanks
Scott Engel (3:45 PM)
Gore and McGahee give you a great RB duo
Andrew (Calgary)
There has been some sleeper talk about Wes Walker this year. Is he worth a pick up right now from the remaning free agent pool left undrafted?
Scott Engel (3:46 PM)
Certainly - I drafted him in the 11thr ound in one of my leagues - he is going to be New England's best possession guy
jeremy (rock chalk)
Who do you see being the biggest bust this year?
Scott Engel (3:47 PM)
Laurence Maroney - expectations are too high
George (Modesto, CA)
I'm in a 12 team league that includes 3 WR's, 2 RB's, and a WR/RB. What is your take on Hester in that WR/RB position? Thanks.
Scott Engel (3:48 PM)
I'm not even thinking of drafting Hester - he's going to be a novelty who won't get enough touches to be a quality fantasy player
Matt (Miami, FL)
With a new coach, an improved O-line, a non-rookie QB, and elite WR's, why isn't Edgerrin James ranked higher?
Scott Engel (3:50 PM)
Because the line still has to truly show it can do better, and Leinart must prove he can manage the offense consistently
Sean (Philly)
Some pointers for a 16 team league. Roster size is the key, I play in one, and we only have three bench spots. if you have more than that, there is no movement because there is no one to pick up. The only way I would recomend more than that is to force two of those spots to be a kicker and a defense. I personally like starting 2 RB's as well. There are 32 teams, so everyone should be able to have two starters, even if one of them is splitting time. There tends to be more waiver wire action and trades in a league this size which makes it a lot more fun.
Scott Engel (3:51 PM)
Thanks, Sean
Pete (Seriously Confused)
C'mon Scott - I REALLY hate to beg, but I've been trying this question all week with no takers. In a dynasty keeper league, which would you keep - a #2 QB (Eli) or a #5 RB (Norwood). There are questions in front of both - but I think Eli is more replaceable at this point. Thanks
Scott Engel (3:53 PM)
I think keeping a second quarterback is more important than a fifth running back.
Nick (Colonia, NJ)
Where do you rank Thomas Jones? Does the whole Pete Kendall holdout thing effect his value?
Scott Engel (3:53 PM)
Jones is underrated and can be top 12. Kendall is way past his prime and it doesn't affect my estimation of Jones
Dave (Jackson, MI)
Hi Scott. Which two would you keep between Cedric Benson (cost me a 5th rounder), Chester Taylor (12th rounder), or Marion Barber (8th rounder).
Scott Engel (3:54 PM)
I would keep Benson and Barber - Taylor is going to get phased out by next year in Minnesota
Andrew (Calgary)
If I have the first overall pick in my league, and the guy with the number 2 overall pick wants to trade, what other pick(s) should I demand from him?
Scott Engel (3:56 PM)
I would ask for at least his fourth-rounder. Nothing less would be acceptable
Drew, Washington, DC
In a league where you start 2QBs, how far would you move Peyton up in the rankings?
Scott Engel (3:57 PM)
I would take him No. 1 overall - again, no safer pick in fantasy and QBs are in as high demand as RBs in those formats
Vinny (nyc)
Will J.Lewis and/or L.Jordan be reliable #2 RB's this season? Who would you rather have?
Scott Engel (3:59 PM)
Lewis cna still be decent, but Jordan is playing behind a shoddy line and may not carry a full load. I wouldn't want either one as my No. 2 guy
Marc Chicago
$100 cap how much would you bid on Portis and Edge
Scott Engel (4:00 PM)
I wouldn't bid much more than 20 dollras on either one.
Anthony (NYC)
Scott who do you think will be this years goal line vulture, & which round should he be picked?
Scott Engel (4:01 PM)
Brian Leonard, Dwayne Wright, Deshawn Wynn, Marcel Shipp all are possibilities - they are final rounders because they won;t get enough regular touches
Dennis (Boise, ID)
If Dante Culpepper gets the starting job in Oakland, what do you think his fantasy value is?
Scott Engel (4:02 PM)
A decent backup - I think he will be inconsistent as he rounds back into form with erratic blocking
Jon (CA)
McAllister or Thomas Jones?
Scott Engel (4:03 PM)
I prefer Jones - I think he will catch passes out of the backfield and will be more versatile. Thanks a lot everyone!

Spoiler alert: Do not continue reading the following Game of Thrones story if you haven't seen Sundays episode. Seriously, major spoilers ahead. You proceed at your own risk.
How does one come down from the horror and brutality of the Red Wedding? The latest episode of HBO's Game of Thrones was so traumatic, so shocking in its unforgiving bloodletting that countless memes have already surfaced to chronicle the reactions to the three pivotal deaths in Season 3's penultimate episode.
If you're still wondering how Game of Thrones can ever repair the winter-shaped hole in your heart created by the death of the North, well, here's a start: Zap2It reports that Thrones co-showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss have written an episode of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, hitting the new comedy-driven FXX network later this year for its ninth season.
Exactly what Benioff and Weiss' episode entails remains unclear, but we can only hope that we see our favorite Philadelphians getting their Thrones on. Dee would fancy herself a Daenerys Targaryen, but would actually be the alcoholic rage-monster Cersei. Dennis would be her incestuous lover Jaime and he'd be totally cool with it. Mac and Charlie could battle it out over who gets to play Robb Stark, only to both reneg ewhen they find out the horrible fate that awaits the King of the North. As for Frank, well … that's kinda obvious.
The ninth season premiere of Always Sunny does not yet have a concrete air date.
What was the point of referencing the Game of Thrones spoiler in this article? It was clearly marked, and I've already seen the episode so I'm not complaining that I got spoiled, it just seems like an utterly gratuitous reference.
Anyways, Sunny has been declining in quality for the last few seasons but I'm intrigued about how this episode will come out. Cool news.
Dennis finds Sweet Dee hideous so that wouldn't work. The McPoyles maybe. Love both shows and Always Sunny REALLY rebounded last season after a lousy season 7 so I can't wait for this.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - A slain military sniper whose memoir sparked a lawsuit from former Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura admitted before his death that he removed Ventura's name from the book because he was afraid of being sued.
Ventura sued anyway, and his defamation claim against Chris Kyle's estate is unfolding this week in federal court in St. Paul, Minnesota. Ventura says Kyle invented a story about punching him at a bar after Ventura supposedly badmouthed Navy SEALs.
Kyle was killed last year in an attack at a Texas gun range. In a video deposition, he said early drafts of his book named Ventura in describing an alleged confrontation.
Kyle said he convinced his co-authors that Ventura's name should come out. The book ultimately referred to Ventura as "Scruff Face" instead.

This plugin requires 3 key codes and simply did not work after several attempts. The person making the plugin seemed nice and sincere but the plugin itself simply never worked for me no matter what I did. After entering all 3 codes, the plugin did not display the information correctly and just didn't work correctly. I tried several times, used other plugins that all worked fine, but this one just was incomplete.
So, unless it's updated, which it does not appear to be, I won't be trying it out again because it simply did nto work for me.

If You Think Animal Experiments Are Essential, Then Read On...
This article examines whether, moral and ethical arguments aside, it is indeed essential to test new drugs and medical procedures on animals. This article argues that such testing is not only unnecessary, but could also be detrimental to the health of the human race. It also poses some disturbing reasons why such experiments continue today - reasons which drug companies do not want you to know.

Grow Away! iOS
- Publisher: Chillingo Ltd , Chillingo
- Release Date: Oct 4, 2012
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
Oct 9, 2012This is a fun game that is similar to a castle defense game, but has arcade shooter elements to it as well. It is entertaining and exciting, but not challenging at all.
Oct 5, 2012The game mechanics tie together neatly so Grow Away! proves to be excellent fun. Levels gradually work their way up in terms of difficulty, ensuring that players never feel too out of depth or patronised. Grow Away! is near guaranteed to offer hours of vegetable flinging fun.
Oct 11, 2012Like its veggie protagonists, Grow Away is simple, satisfying, and good fun to throw around for an hour or two.
Oct 9, 2012Grow Away isn't especially revolutionary, but it's surprisingly good, solid fun that will keep you busy for a while, coming back for just a bit more.
Oct 9, 2012Grow Away! suffers for its generally repetitive task of gunning down enemies, but the variety of enemies; boss fights; and 'companion' vegetables to explore and use make for a strangely addicting experience.
Oct 9, 2012Grow Away suffers from not being that fun in the long run with a lot of repetition, and gameplay that isn't interesting enough.

Comic-Con Trailers: The Best of the Best, Ranked
Film, TV
Publishing | Viz Media's Kevin Hamric discusses how the availability of streaming anime has been boosting sales of the related manga. Series that have gotten a boost lately include Blue Exorcist and Kamisama Kiss: "Overall streaming has had a positive effect on our book sales. In recent years, Blue Exorcist is probably the biggest example I can give — one of newest hits under our Shonen Jump Advanced imprint. We launched our series [in 2010] and had very good sales (they matched our expectations), but once the anime was available through streaming, sales jumped through the roof, and that was in 2011. So streaming was fairly young at that time. Once the anime was streaming, sales of the manga were way above expectations." [ICv2]
Retailing | Matthew Price has a quick roundup of news from the annual meeting of ComicsPRO, the direct-market trade organization, held over the weekend in Atlanta — including a list of properties that are likely to be drawing attention in the coming months. [The Oklahoman]
Retailing | We see a lot of newspaper stories about stores opening and expanding, but not so many about this topic: When the Decatur, Illinois, comic shop Capital Comics and Games closed late last year, it left comics readers with no nearby source for print comics. Despite the fact that Capital's former customers are driving to other towns to do their shopping, local merchants who do carry comics are reluctant to increase their stock. [Herald-Review]
Creators | Writer Kyle Higgins talks about his new Image Comics series C.O.W.L. [13th Dimension]
Creators | Michael Cavna chats briefly with the four nominees for this year's Reuben Awards. [Comic Riffs]
Digital comics | Justin Stroman kicks the tires on the digital manga service MangaBox, and he likes it pretty well. One odd twist, though: A translator tells him she has had to modify content by request of the Android Market, which apparently has a low tolerance for "raunchy jokes." [Manga Bookshelf]
Academia | Scott McCloud, author of Understanding Comics, is spending part of this spring on campus at the Austin Peay State University in Clarkesville, Tennessee, as the recipient of the 2014 Acuff Chair of Excellence (which was endowed by country music singer Roy Acuff). [Business & Heritage Clarkesville]
It's nice to see how the streaming has introduced many people to series and other forms of entertainment to people all over the world. It's nice to see publishers and such take advantage of he increased market possibilities rather than fight against it, and be rewarded for blazing those trails.
And as I updated later in the post, there seem to be titles (Peephole was one that I learned about) that are banned on Android. So…yeah. That's not so cool.
I'm not normally a manga reader, but I got into the "Attack on Titan" manga after streaming the anime and I've bought all the volumes to date. I would also buy "Kuroko's Basketball" if they ever put that out in English.
Thanks for linking the article on Capital Comics. Decatur, like a lot of medium-sized towns, didn't respond well to the financial crisis and ended up with more people and businesses leaving the area than coming in for new opportunities. Just last year, one of the largest agro manufacturers in the state left for greener pastures.
The point about regular patronage should also be noted, since Capital Comics was located on a street one block away from the area university. A lot of students would spend petty cash there if they had the time on a lazy afternoon, but what are the chances they come back? It was always up in the air.

EL PASO (December 11, 2013) Border agents in West Texas seized a 1966 Ford Mustang and arrested the driver after finding nearly 80 pounds of marijuana hidden under the front fenders.
Customs and Border Protection officials in El Paso say the pot was discovered in the iconic vehicle during an inspection at the Paso Del Norte border crossing.
Port Director Hector Mancha said it's a bit unusual to see drugs in a collectable or high-value car.
He said the drugs and the vehicle were confiscated and the driver, who's from El Paso, was arrested during Saturday's incident.
CBP says the Ford Mustang was dismantled and compartments were discovered under the front fenders, containing dozens of plastic-wrapped bundles of marijuana.

The Miracle Continues
Helen Keller: The Miracle Continues is a 1984 semisequel to the 1979 telefilm version of The Miracle Worker. It is a drama based on the life of Helen Keller.
The film covers the period of Keller's life from her college years at Radcliffe through her writing of The Story of My Life assisted by John Macy, who falls in love with and marries Keller's teacher and companion, Anne Sullivan. Helen wants to live a full life but is hampered by her actual disabilities and by people's attitudes and beliefs about the disabled at that time. Sullivan is hampered by psychological problems from her own past, as well as by her symbiotic, almost codependent bond with Helen, which affects Macy to the extent that he eventually self-destructs into alcoholism. Keller and Sullivan raise money by going on the road with a lecture tour where they describe her education.
- Blythe Danner as Anne Sullivan
- Mare Winningham as Helen Keller
- Perry King as John Macy
- Vera Miles as Kate Keller
- Jack Warden as Mark Twain
- Peter Cushing as Professor Charles Copeland
- Alexander Knox as Mr. Gilman

Fungi are the largest and possibly the oldest living organisms on earth.
They are often thought of as being plants, but some experts say they are closer to being animals.
In fact fungi are in a kingdom all of their own.
There are at least 70,000 species world wide, approximately 12,000 in the UK and 2,700 in the New Forest.
Most fungi have the same basic structure - thread like hyphae, which form a web or mycelium - these webs are present in the soil and in the trees around us all the time - then the fruiting body (the 'mushroom' or 'toadstool') - which is the bit we see and eat (if edible) - when conditions are right. Autumn is usually the time to see the fruiting bodies, when a mixture of wet but mild weather will provide ideal conditions.
What do fungi do?
Fungi cannot make their own food using energy from sunlight, but grow by absorbing food and water from their surroundings – most importantly from living and dead plants and animals.
They are nature's recyclers - without saprophytic fungi the world would be covered in dead plants and animals.
Many fungi live with trees and other plants. This is known as a mycorhizal association (from the Greek myco – fungus, rhiza – root). The fungi help the plant take up more nutrients by increasing the effective surface area of the roots, and in turn take some sugars from the plant.
This relationship is common in the woodland fungi such as the amanitas, russulas, boletus and lactarius. Certain species will only grow with certain trees (a useful help in identifying the fungi). Trees certainly grow less well without fungi.
Now that this amazing association is being understood, fungi such as the brown roll rim are sometimes added to the soil to help tree growth.
Conservation of fungi
Fungi are under threat due to habitat loss and pollution. They may be under threat in some areas due to over collecting. In the New Forest there are some woods where no picking is allowed - Burley Old / Dames Slough Inclosure near Burley and Whitley Wood near New Park. This is because we wish to see if there is a noticeable difference in the long run in areas that are picked and areas that are not.
One particular concern is commercial collecting, which is not permitted anywhere. This tends to strip areas bare so there is nothing for others to enjoy. More importantly this may stop fungi spreading their spores, and definitely removes a food source for other wildlife – over 1,000 species of insects and other creatures depend on fungi for food and shelter.
Can you eat it?
Not unless you are sure that it is an edible fungus. In fact, there are more poisonous plants than fungi and more people are poisoned by edible fungi which have gone off, than by truly poisonous species. However there are indeed a small number of deadly fungi and the rule is that you must never eat anything (fungi or plant) unless you are sure what it is.
If you fancy trying to pick some wild mushrooms these are some simple guidelines:
- Go out with someone who knows what they are looking at
- Follow the fungi pickers code
- Don't mix edible & non edible species in a basket
- Identify the exact species
- If you are trying a new one, eat a small amount
Fungi Code for the New Forest:
The New Forest is a Site of Special Scientific interest with over two thousand varieties of fungi, many of which are rare and internationally- important species.
We appeal to people to look, but don't pick.
Commercial harvesting is not permitted and foray leaders must obtain a licence.
We're reviewing the guidelines on picking for personal consumption. New restrictions will be trialled to lessen the impacts on this very special habitat, call 0300 067 4601 for the latest details.
