Munro reminds us once again why she is an international treasure.
Munro is joining an elite band of exceptions—Thomas Mann and John Updike perhaps among them.
As one Munro protagonist puts it, "good use can be made of everything, if you are willing."
Munro is a great writer; a wise writer; a free and brave, exacting, transformative, generous, and profoundly discreet writer.
Munro is the first Canadian-based writer to ever win the Nobel literature award since it began in 1901.
Night is the same as day to Le Subtil, when Munro waits for him.
But when he felt the blows of Munro, his spirit lay under the birch.
Dr. Munro thought it would be better that he should not come down.
"Wait till you're asked, Munro," he interrupted, with his ugliest of expressions.
Munro shook his head in disappointment, and proceeded, bent on the high duty of his station.

|In the Middle Ages, one of the most common ways to proclaim the authenticity of a document was to attach a seal to it. Seals were images carved into a matrix which, when pressed into a substance like warm wax, left behind an inverse of the picture on the seal. The image, and often a legend written around it, identified the author of the document and was meant to prevent people from forging or tampering with official correspondence. More importantly, in an age when even illiterate people needed to transact business, seals allowed individuals to declare their consent to an agreement even if they couldn't sign their names.

Seals are an important tool for research in the history of the Middle Ages. They (along with coins, their close formal relative) long functioned as the most important locus for official portraits of rulers, and the style and associations of such portraits and the insignia and attributes associated with the effigies are often our most important source of knowledge for how these rulers wanted to be seen by their subjects, and by their neighbors and rivals. Ecclesiastical seals are a useful source for the ways in which prelates and religious corporations saw their relationship to their head and their heavenly patron or patrons, who were often represented on it in increasingly complex arrangements. The seals of other types of corporations (including town, universities, and guilds) reveal what their governing bodies saw as most important in their function or situation, and the changes of general design-type tell us interesting things about their relationship to the culture in which they functioned.
For much of the early Middle Ages the use of seals was restricted to kings and popes. Many of these seals featured a head-portrait, often in a style emulating Imperial Roman and Byzantine seals and coinage. These evolved around 1000 A.D. into portraits featuring a seated monarch bearing indicators of his power (swords, scepters, orbs). In the tenth century the use of seals spread to princes and, later, to bishops, with other ecclesiastical officials adopting seals in the twelfth century, with each rank adapting its own form of dignity-portrait.

Many towns and monastic houses adopted the hagiological type of seal-design, featuring the patron saint in a full-length portrait. Two other kinds of seal-design that emerged in this period were the topographical type (featuring building portraits) and the cartographical type (featuring the plan of the town). These two types were frequently used by corporate entities such as monastic houses and towns. Two final kinds of seals frequently employed in the High and Late Middle Ages are the equestrian type (which may be civilian or military) and armorial seals, generally used only by the secular nobility.
The Medieval Institute is proud to own a collection of over 200 medieval seals in facsimile. These images, mostly French, display the wide range of styles, sizes, and types of seals and seal owners in the Middle Ages. The seals in this exhibit are organized in three ways: according to their user, according to their geographic origin, and according to the insignia displayed on the seal.

I reviewed Stann's book when I wrote for MMAHQ.
Probably the best mma related book I've read although the best bits are the non mma related bits ironically.

'Go read a fucking book, you piece of shit.'
Randy's wasn't great, BJ's is ok, loved Forrest's though its not exactly an autobiography. Jen's is hard hitting at times and a decent read. Got fighters heart, not read it yet though.
Sig awaiting witty quote from someone.
I think judging a lot more last year made me realize that I couldn't objectively do both properly.
I can't be writing "10 reasons why fighter x will never beat fighter y" or the opinion based pieces that were the most fun to do because of potential conflict of interests.
I cover videogames for Fighters Only and do a few other things for them as well as sporadic event reports for Yourmma when they happen.
The main writing I do now is on my blog, which is like some kind of beat mma diary.http://bencartlidgesupermma.blogspot.co.uk/
That's where it all started, so it's kind of nice somehow to come full circle.

Well this is exciting...quite a few to read then (off to Amazon). Ben's got me thinking, what about must read blogs? MMA has always been a digital movement, but has 'the blog' doen much?

Anywho, I feel like my head's going to explode from all the options for my first HTPC. One minute I've decided on getting a pre-built and the next I'm considering building my own. Ideally, I'd like to find a pre-built HTPC that is pretty much good to go (willing, of course to buy RAM/Hard Drive separately if it's barebones.) However, if building my own HTPC is easy (I've built a few custom desktop computers several years ago) and a great way to save money, I'd consider that too.
Let me paint you a picture of what I want from my ideal media center and you guys could perhaps let me know what would work best for me or if I'm not even making sense. By the way, I've checked the 'What group am I?' thread and I'm Group 5, I would say. Also trying to keep the budget around the $300 range if possible. Here are things I'd like to do with my HTPC setup:
- Connect to my TV via HDMI (duh)
- Load XBMC on it (Live? or Windows 7? I'm undecided.)
- Hook up my 1 TB External Hard Drive via eSATA (since I already own it.) This would store my downloaded TV shows and Movies
- Stream Netflix HD with no stuttering at all
- Stream Hulu (highest quality) with no stuttering
- Install sabnzbd, Sickbeard, and Couchpotato on it so I can manage all my usenet downloading/sorting right off the HTPC
- Be able to put NES/SNES/n64 emulators on there and play with perfect performance
- Blu-ray drive just for watching blu-ray movies occasionally? Low priority but would be a nice bonus.
Let me put this out there too: I'm not a pack rat when it comes to downloading and storing TV shows and Movies. Typically, I'll download a recent TV show episode/season, watch it, and then delete it. Also, I'll download a movie I want to watch and then delete it when I'm done. That's not to say I don't want a good chunk of storage just in case. But, I'm not wanting to build a NAS with like 4 Terabyte drives in it. Trying to keep things on a smaller budget here.
Also not worried about doing Wi-Fi. Definitely going to hook the device up directly to my router via ethernet.
So, is it realistic to find an HTPC that does all of that for a reasonable price? I'm looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts and feedback. Go easy on me, I'm new to this whole thing!

Related story: Billboard 'congratulates' San Bernardino for being 'worst-run' city
The billboard "congratulating" Mayor Pat Morris and four members of the City Council for making San Bernardino "the worst-run city in America" has been moved, but the police union behind it says the message hasn't changed.
The billboard, which targets officials whom the union says demonstrated a lack of appreciation for public safety with two votes, was installed a week ago at the corner of Highland Avenue and E Street.
But the building owner said he didn't want it outside his business, and CBS Outdoor sign company moved the billboard to Highland Avenue west of Medical Center Drive.
"I was totally disappointed," said Tim Mullen, owner of Mullen's Flowers. "We own the building and they (CBS) lease from us, so as soon as I caught wind of the message I contacted them."
The first public announcement that the sign would move came from City Attorney James F. Penman, who said at Monday's City Council that he had heard the union agreed to take it down and hoped that was true.
Union officials say they didn't agree to anything, and they didn't hear the sign was moving until four hours later. That leads them to suspect Penman pressured Mullen to move it for political reasons.
"Where he heard that, I don't know, because we never had anyone conversations with anyone about agreeing to take that sign down," said Steve Turner, president of the Police Officers Association. "As far as I'm concerned, he had something to do with the sign being moved. I don't have proof of that, I just believe based on the chronology of events, for him to make that comment without talking to us, it's suspicious."
The billboard doesn't mention Penman, but it does have the name and picture of Councilwoman Wendy McCammack, whom the union suspects Penman is supporting for mayor. Penman has said he is undecided about November's mayoral election.
Penman said the sign was coming down heard it from McCammack, who says she heard from Mullen. Mullen said he reached out to McCammack, who represents his ward on the City Council.
"I don't want any negative political messages on my building," Mullen said.
McCammack said she stood by the votes the union cited for including her on the billboard - one asking the Sheriff's Department how much it would cost for them to police San Bernardino and another imposing contracts on police that reduced their benefits - but respected anyone's right to post a political message.
"It's a free country, and they have that right," she said.
In past elections, the police union has supported both McCammack and Penman, but decisions in recent months have reversed that.
Penman said he supports the Police Department and individual officers, but not the union's current leaders.
"They have been too divisive and unsupportive of the city and our residents during this financial crisis and in our bankruptcy litigation," Penman said.
Monday, though, Penman spoke during the public comment section of the City Council meeting to ask the union for support against a recall effort that targets Penman, Morris and all seven council members.
Asked about Penman's request, Turner said the union was not associated with the group campaigning for a recall.
"We don't support the recall effort against Robert (Jenkins), John (Valdivia) or Chas (Kelley)," Turner said. "These three council members have a proven record of making public safety their top priority. They have stood up for the safety of the residents of this community and San Bernardino's police officers are standing with them."
The billboard's new location is in Rikke Van Johnson's ward, rather than McCammack's, and is not in directly in front of any business. It is also partly obstructed by trees and telephone wires, and in a less heavily traveled area.
"I can tell you that we're against it moving to Highland and MCD (Medical Center Drive), and we're working for a different location," Turner said.
The conclusion that San Bernardino is the nation's worst-run city comes from a financial website, Wall St 24/7. It does not spell out its methodology, but it includes the poverty rate, unemployment rate, credit rating and violent-crime rate - all with figures from before the decisions Turner mentioned. It also notes the August 2012 bankruptcy filing and that between 2007 and 2011 the city's median home price decreased more than any other large U.S. city.
Decisions by the five officials on the billboard likely increased the violent crime rate, and other poor management decisions likely also contributed to the city's poor rating, Turner said.

Photos: Berth 55 Community Forum
LONG BEACH — Hoping to save a pair of longtime Westside businesses from closure, supporters of Berth 55 Fish Market and Seafood Deli and Long Beach Sportfishing urged Long Beach port officials Thursday to keep the two businesses from shuttering because of a bridge replacement project.
A raucous crowd of more than a 100 people - many of them sporting buttons that read "Keep '55' Alive" - gathered at a community forum at Berth 55 to voice their concerns over a plan to relocate a fire station displaced by the Gerald Desmond Bridge replacement project.
"We are not going out of business; the port has decided we are going out of business," said Michael Redlew, general manager of Long Beach Sportfishing.
Port of Long Beach Executive Director Christopher Lytle said he didn't like the idea of having to displace businesses.
"If there was any other choice for us, I would rather leave the (businesses) right here and put this security complex somewhere else," he said. "But right now this is the best location for this security complex."
A major connector to the nation's trade system, the Gerald Desmond Bridge has been slowly decaying as traffic volumes have grown, so port officials embarked on the $1 billion replacement project, due for completion in 2016.
Because Fire Station 20 is in the path of one of the new bridge supports, fire and port officials began looking for other locations. However, real estate pickings were slim, according to port officials.
Berth 55 - which houses the two beloved, longtime Westside businesses - provided the best land and water access for Fire Station 20 and also allowed for police services and port security, said port and public safety officials.
"We need a place where we can bring people in with good land-side access, and to get a boat and respond out to whatever the incident is or whatever the emergency is," said Long Beach Fire Chief Mike DuRee, adding that the location improves land response times by more than 1 minute. "This facility will provide that for us."
For more than 40 years, Berth 55 has been a go-to place for longshoremen and residents who enjoy down-home seafood dining by the harbor. For many, it's a Westside landmark and the port's move threatens to take away one of the few public accesses to the harbor.
"You're displacing good businesses that have been here," said Paul Allen Collins, an architect based on the Westside. "There's no place for people in Long Beach to go anymore within the port to be on the water."
Some supporters argued that there are better places to put the safety complex, such as putting it closer to Fire Station 20's current location near the bridge or bunking it with a nearby station.
Others urged officials to consider allowing the fire station and businesses to share the space.
"We're not talking about bringing destroyers, battleships," said resident Dan Hernandez. "There's plenty of room for that (the fireboat and equipment) and the vessels that are already here."
Port and fire officials countered that there would not be enough room to accommodate both uses and added that it was a security issue.
"We have to continue to bolster public safety in the port," Lytle said.
The port has issued a 180-day notice to vacate to the businesses, which requires them to close by the end of October.
Vice Mayor Robert Garcia, whose 1 st Council District includes Berth 55, said the situation is a sad one for those involved.
"You've got really great businesses that connect with the community," Garcia said. "On the other hand, you have this post 9-11 environment where you have to make the largest economic generator on the West Coast safe."
Garcia said he is hopeful that a compromise can be reached.
"I'd love to see this restaurant be here in some form," he said. "Is it possible? I don't know."

Tom Clark
- Located in Boston, MA
- Founder, Center for Naturalism.
- Developer of Naturalism.Org, a leading Web resource on worldview naturalism, its implications and applications.
- Author, Encountering Naturalism: A Worldview and Its Uses and many publications and presentations on naturalism, free will, science, addiction, and criminal and social justice.
- Host and moderator, Philosophy Café at Harvard Book Store in Cambridge, MA.
Before founding the Center for Naturalism (CFN), Tom Clark was a researcher in addictions and mental health, where he worked on developing a fully naturalistic model of behavioral disorders. As director of the CFN, Tom Clark is now on the cultural cutting edge in articulating science-based naturalism as a comprehensive worldview. In his book, articles and presentations, he argues that in understanding ourselves as completely natural creatures, fully connected to and caused by our biological and social circumstances, we gain in control and compassion. Those wanting a fresh and positive perspective on secularism will enjoy Clark's naturalistic challenges to conventional wisdom on such topics as free will, moral responsibility, criminal and social justice, addiction, and the culture wars. His engaging, fast-paced lectures will encourage students to re-think their fundamental assumptions about the self and human nature, and in so doing give them access to the abundant resources of worldview naturalism. His talks are suitable for general audiences but can be tailored for students in law, science, psychology, philosophy, religion, and social and political theory.
Clark is pleased to speak on topics such as:
- Encountering naturalism: a worldview and its uses
- Science and intersubjectivity: the rational basis for naturalism
- Reality and its rivals: the case against religious cognition
- Who are you, essentially? - challenging the soul and its free will
- Freedom and responsibility: defusing the threat of determinism
- Connection, compassion, control: personal and social benefits of naturalism
- Empiricism and equality: the progressive implications of naturalism
- Retribution on trial: the naturalistic revisioning of criminal justice
- Compulsion vs. choice: beyond the disease model of addiction
- Worldview cognitive therapy: the psychological advantages of naturalism
- Naturalism vs. supernaturalism: how to survive the culture wars
- Naturalistic spirituality: oxymoron - not!
- Religious naturalism: at home in a wild universe
- Death, nothingness and subjectivity: what happens when we die?

The Secret War On Black Republicans
There has been much written about the racial rhetoric that has permeated political discourse since President Obama took office, and the media often highlights the racially inflammatory language used by some of his opponents. But racially charged language targeting black Republicans rarely receives much coverage, further fueling conservative suspicion of the mainstream media.
Late last month, Gloreatha Scurry-Smith, a congressional candidate in Florida's Fifth district, found that one of her campaign signs had been vandalized. Smith says she initially wasn't surprised that one of her billboards had been defaced, but was taken aback when she saw that her face had been spray painted white on a towering 8-foot by 4-foot campaign billboard.
Though she emphasized she does not know the culprit's motivation, Smith did say that she interpreted it as an attack on her status as a rather prominent black Republican.
"As a black conservative often times you are thought of as an Uncle Tom or perhaps a traitor to your own race," Smith told The Daily Beast. "I didn't want to deal with that since we have such serious issues in our district that are way more important than this sign."
Smith, who goes by "Glo," says she almost didn't tell people about the incident. She waited for days, praying for guidance with her family. Eventually, Smith and her husband decided it was worth going public on social media in case other signs had been similarly defaced.
But once the incident was made public on June 29, only conservative and local outlets seemed to really treat it like major news. By comparison, a Nebraska parade float that featured an outhouse marked "Obama Presidential Library" drew international press attention last week due to its perceived racial connotations.
So is this merely a matter of a lesser-known candidate in a little-covered political race drawing less attention than attacks on the most watched political figure in the world, or is there something else at play?
According to former Republican National Committee Chair Michael Steele, who is African-American, the media do not seem particularly interested in covering perceived racial slights when the victim is a black conservative.

"Matthew and I met through ChristianMingle. We were a match not only spiritually, but mentally, and emotionally as well."
Our first date was on October 31, 2014. Matthew knew early on that I was the one, while I was a little more reserved. I knew that he had the qualities I was looking for in a future husband. We were a match not only spiritually, but mentally, and emotionally as well. After 6 months of dating, Matthew proposed and I delightfully accepted. We are ecstatic to have plans to walk down the aisle on January 16th 2016.
We are so thankful to have found our perfect match and especially thankful to ChristianMingle for giving us the opportunity to date members who are like minded spiritually. If we had not made the decision to join ChristianMingle, we may not have ever met. We are forever grateful.
Thanks to ChristianMingle, "We have found THE ONE whom our soul loves." Song of Solomon 3:4

Is an appointment needed?
No advance notification or formal written referral is necessary to attend an Al-Anon or Alateen meeting. Most Al-Anon groups have a contact who can be called for information about the group, our program in general, or for directions to a meeting. Many Alateen groups meet at the same time and location as an Al-Anon group. Alateen meetings are open only to teenagers. (Note: Some Alateen meetings also welcome pre-teen aged children)
How do I make a referral?
It is helpful to make your patient, client, consumer, or student aware of Al-Anon or Alateen and our purpose. Many people have never heard of Al-Anon or Alateen.
Although Al-Anon and Alateen groups follow the same meeting format, each group's meetings are slightly different from each other because attendees and topics of discussion vary each week.
What does Al-Anon or Alateen cost?
There are no dues or fees for Al-Anon or Alateen membership. Most groups have expenses and pass a basket for voluntary contributions. The money is used to meet the group's expenses such as rent for the meeting room, to buy Al-Anon/Alateen literature, to support the local Al-Anon Information Service, and to fund the expenses of the members who perform service on behalf of the group.
How do the Al-Anon Family Groups and the Al-Anon Family Group Headquarters, Inc. support themselves?
Through the sale of Al-Anon/Alateen literature and voluntary contributions from members, Al-Anon groups, and service arms. The Al-Anon Family Group Headquarters, Inc. and the Al-Anon Family Groups do not accept grants or funding from outside sources.
What about problems other than someone else's drinking?
In addition to alcohol abuse, newcomers as well as Al-Anon members may be worried about a relative or friend who has another type of addiction, mental illness, compulsive or problematic behavior. While Al-Anon's principles are applicable to many different situations and concerns, the Al-Anon program focuses on helping members recover from the effects of someone else's drinking. Newcomers as well as Al-Anon/Alateen members are also encouraged to seek help from other resources for concerns in addition to or other than someone else's drinking when needed.
Is Al-Anon or Alateen compatible with the professional care and services I offer?
Yes. Al-Anon/Alateen is a peer support group. As peers, they exchange their respective experiences. The mutual sharing among members helps members to realize that they have a variety of options that they may not have realized they had before attending Al-Anon or Alateen. Al-Anon members do not give direction or prescribe specific solutions for other members.
Is the Al-Anon Family Groups program religious?
No. It is spiritually-based upon principles applicable to people from a wide variety of backgrounds and applicable to people regardless of their religious beliefs—or lack of religious beliefs.
What is the Al-Anon or Alateen meeting format and what do members talk about at meetings?
Most Al-Anon and Alateen groups have a discussion topic at their meetings such as acceptance, overcoming fear, change, one of Al-Anon's slogans (e.g. One Day at a Time, Easy Does It) or one of the Twelve Steps. Al-Anon and Alateen meetings are facilitated by members, rather than a professional. Each week, a different member chairs the meeting on a different subject.
Why do members continue to attend Al-Anon or Alateen after the drinker is in treatment, sober, attending Alcoholics Anonymous, or no longer actively involved in the individual's life?
Al-Anon is a program of self-discovery and personal growth. Recovery is an on-going process and is not limited to whether or not the alcoholic or problem drinker continues to drink, is visibility present, or actively involved in a member's life. The effects of someone else's drinking are deep and may present challenges that continue throughout life.
Members form new friendships with other members and often can find great personal satisfaction in maintaining their relationships with their Al-Anon friends. Al-Anon and Alateen members also reinforce their own recovery and find great satisfaction is sharing their application of the Al-Anon program with newcomers.

Easter was a wonderful time for me last week! It has always been one of my favorite holidays. I spent it listening to a wonderful talk on the resurrection of the Savior and then a little party for the man of my dreams who's moving to France on Wednesday. More on that tomorrow.
At the office, I have taken over decorating duties, as well as taking care of our dear Swag. For fun, I placed little Easter eggs around the office one night after everyone had left! I was in California the next morning, so I don't know how they reacted, but I had a good time doing it. We even had a golden egg!
Check back tomorrow for one of the most heartfelt posts I'll ever have on the blog! It's going to be amazing!
Keep up-to-date on my new postings by following me on Twitter. You can also contact me through my website here, email me at firstname.lastname@example.com, or send me a message to my Facebook. Thank you!

LUCASVILLE, Ohio (AP) -- A condemned Ohio inmate appeared to gasp several times and took more than 15 minutes to die Thursday as he was executed with a combination of drugs never before tried in the U.S.
Death row inmate Dennis McGuire made several loud snorting or snoring sounds during one of the longest executions since Ohio resumed capital punishment in 1999.
In attempting to halt his execution with the new method, McGuire's attorneys had argued last week he was at substantial risk of "agony and terror" while straining to catch his breath as he experienced a medical phenomenon known as air hunger.
Ohio officials used intravenous doses of two drugs, the sedative midazolam and the painkiller hydromorphone, to put McGuire to death for the 1989 rape and fatal stabbing of a pregnant woman, Joy Stewart. The new execution method was adopted after supplies of a previously used drug dried up because the manufacturer put it off limits for capital punishment.
Before he died, McGuire thanked Stewart's family for their "kind words" in a letter he apparently received from them.
"I'm going to heaven, I'll see you there when you come," he said.
McGuire's adult children sobbed a few feet away in a witness room at the state death house in Lucasville in southern Ohio.
McGuire opened and shut his left hand as if waving to his daughter, son and daughter-in-law. More than a minute later he raised himself up, looked in the direction of his family and said, "I love you. I love you."
McGuire was still for almost five minutes, then emitted a loud snort, as if snoring, and continued to make that sound over the next several minutes. He also soundlessly opened and shut his mouth several times as his stomach rose and fell.
"Oh my God," his daughter, Amber McGuire, said as she observed her father's final moments.
A coughing sound was Dennis McGuire's last apparent movement, at 10:43 a.m. He was pronounced dead 10 minutes later.
Previous executions with the former execution method took much less time, and typically did not include the types of snorts and gasps that McGuire uttered.
State attorneys had disputed claims that McGuire would experience terror as he was put to death with the new method. A federal judge sided with the state but acknowledged the new method was an experiment. At the request of McGuire's lawyers, Judge Gregory Frost ordered the state to photograph and then preserve the drugs' packaging boxes and vials and the syringes used in the execution.
Federal public defender Allen Bohnert called McGuire's death "a failed, agonizing experiment by the state of Ohio."
"The court's concerns expressed earlier this week have been confirmed," said Bohnert, who did not witness the execution. "And more importantly, the people of the state of Ohio should be appalled at what was done here today in their names."
McGuire, 53, was put to death for killing Stewart, a newlywed who was eight months pregnant at the time of her death, in western Ohio's Preble County.
"We have forgiven him, but that does not negate the need for him to pay for his actions," said a statement released by Carol Avery, Stewart's sister, after McGuire's death.
Stewart's slaying went unsolved for 10 months until McGuire, jailed on an unrelated assault and hoping to improve his legal situation, told investigators he had information about the woman's Feb. 12, 1989, death. His attempts to blame the crime on his brother-in-law quickly unraveled and soon he was accused of being Stewart's killer, according to prosecutors.
More than a decade later, DNA evidence confirmed McGuire's guilt, and he acknowledged that he was responsible in a letter to Gov. John Kasich last month.
"One can scarcely conceive of a sequence of crimes more shocking to the conscience or to moral sensibilities than the senseless kidnapping and rape of a young, pregnant woman followed by her murder," Preble County prosecutors said in a filing with the state parole board last month.
His attorneys argued McGuire was mentally, physically and sexually abused as a child and has impaired brain function that makes him prone to act impulsively.
"Dennis was at risk from the moment he was born," the lawyers said in a parole board filing. "The lack of proper nutrition, chaotic home environment, abuse, lack of positive supervision and lack of positive role models all affected Dennis' brain development."
Documents obtained by The Associated Press show McGuire unsuccessfully sought a reprieve in recent weeks to try to become an organ donor. In November, Kasich granted a death row inmate an eight-month reprieve to let the prison system study his request to donate a kidney to his sister and his heart to his mother.
Kasich said McGuire couldn't identify a family member who would receive his organs, as required under prison policy.

Professor Weekley interests us in philology no less than Professor Wyld, but he treads an entirely different path.
It is for that obliging body, Mris Smith, that lives with Mr. Wyld.
And beholde, they raysed a Wyld beast, which with greate swyftnesse leapte ouer the nettes and ranne awaye with greate spede.
Is, then, Wyld's great Globe only a plagiarism from Molenax?
Mr. Wyld will have to follow his example, and keep a staff of colourmen constantly at work on his Model.
It was placed in——'s bank by Mr. Wyld, whom, however, I deceived concerning it—I am now old enough in the school of hypocrisy.
It was generally conceded that a more thorough preflight could have prevented the Wyld's immolation.
The fruits brought forth; Wyld grapes: an heavy sight to a carefull husbandman, to haue noe better reward of his paynes.
Professor Wyld is the author of many well-known and widely read books of which this ought to prove not the least popular.
The Wyld, one of the first ships to be built, had made only two orbits before being destroyed.

For the browns... I don't like Jones. I heard he has a medical condition that might shorten his career.

For the Cowboys I would prefer:
1. Jonathan Cooper, G, North Carolina
2. Louis Nix, DT, Notre Dame
3. Margus Hunt, DE, SMU
4. Ryan Swope, WR, Texas A&M
5. Derek Carr, QB, Fresno State
6. William Gholston, DE, Michigan State
That would end up being an AMAZING draft for Dallas.
In Redball I Trust!
The price of progress is trusting the process.
Heart. Leadership. Passion. Will.

For the Ravens:
1.Kevin Minter, ILB, LSU - Decent pick. I know some Ravens fans that would be all over Terrence Williams tho
2.Cordarrelle Patterson, WR, Tennessee - Given that Dion Jordan is somehow still on the board, he goes here for sure (I'm not even sure he'd make it to the Ravens 1st pick)
3.Josh Evans, S, Florida - Arthur Brown here, especially if we go with something other than an ILB earlier.
4.Andre Ellington, RB, Clemson - Really poor value pick. He'd be 3rd on the DC behind Ray Rice and Bernard Pierce (who has been extremely impressive). Plenty of potential OLBs with good value here or maybe an NT like Geathers or McCullers.
5.Mister Cobble, NT, Kentucky - decent pick
6.Lamarcus Joyner, S, Florida State - good pick

I love the Bengals second round.
The rest, not so much.
1. Maualuga has played a LOT better since losing 20 pounds. I think they will re-sign him and he starts in the middle. Would have loved Mosley. Given who is available, I might want Banks.
3. We are loaded at DT. We have a lot of free agent DEs. Based on available guys, I want Chase Thomas.
4. We are actually pretty solid on the interior O-line. I'd rather find a replacement for Denis Roland at this point. Alex Hurst.
5. I don't see us drafting a QB. I think they like having the veteran backup now. Best kick returning WR here.
6. Is ok I guess.
2017 Draft Needs: Interior O-line, Pass Rushing DE, Linebacker, Kicker, Overall Team Speed.

Meh for the Vikings draft. I don't like the 1st round pick, he is a solid player but I'd prefer to wait on DT. And waiting on WR until round 4, that isn't a great call, it is the biggest need right now.
So I'd prefer Keenan Allen in round one.
Fluker isn't bad in round two if he can play OG because Vikings shouldn't need an OT as I don't see them letting Loadholt who has been playing well walk. But I'd take Fluker as an OG.
D.J. Fluker OG in round two.
Good third round pick.
With taking a needed WR in round one that would then shuffle down DT to round two. I like Jordan Matthews still as a pick, and then Larry Black, Jr. with the other.
Round five is okay, Vikings don't really need the tweener defensive linemen though. TE or LB again would be better.
Poor round six pick. Center isn't a need. Safety is much better. Also
Vikings Won't Lose Conditional Pick in McNabb Trade
so going LB or WR or even DT with the other would be good.

I'll take some time here in a bit for a deeper analysis , but I wanted to point out some concerns first.
1. Geno Smith is not a top QB prospect in my eyes. Sadly he is projected that high by critics as well...
2. Based on Matt Barkley's performance this year, and past USC QB performance in the NFL (Sanchez, Leinhart etc) I don't see Barkley being that high. He was a bust this year, would have benefited to declare last year tbh. Even though they have him projected at second QB, I see him falling behind Nassib and Wilson. Possibly even Bray if he declares. The way the QBs are projected by most critics at the moment bothers me, as I don't agree at all. Either way, I could see another team picking up the 2nd overall QB before Arizona does anyways.

WATCH: Talib Kweli Talks Protest, Spars With CNN's Don Lemon On Live TV
Listen to Talib Kweli Radio on iHeartRadio
Talib Kweli is addressing critics of the protests that have rocked Ferguson, Missouri. After a spirited debate with CNN's Don Lemon Thursday about the mispronunciation of his name and the time he had to speak his peace on live television, the rapper finally shared his thoughts that the focus should be on shooting victim Mike Brown.
Kweli dismissed notions that communities do not respond in the same way to what he called "black-on-black" crime. He said there are many organizations working tirelessly to address violence in their communities and just because people don't see them, or they choose to ignore them, doesn't mean they don't exist.
Michael Brown was gunned down by a police officer on the streets of Ferguson, Missouri on August 9th. The teenager was unarmed at the time of the shooting sparking protests among angry residents. A funeral for Brown will be held next Monday.

How to Apply
Each year, we recruit students from a wide range of academic and personal backgrounds. We look beyond grades, like GPA and GREs, to how well you fit into our program and our faculty, and what impact you will have on the field when you graduate.
The result of our recruiting strategy is a highly competitive graduate program with outstanding, interesting, diverse and high-impact students.
Advice on Your Application
Our graduate engineering programs are very flexible—we emphasize cross-disciplinary research. As a result, we look for students who have thought in depth about the areas they want to study. It is very important that you tell us your areas of interest in the Specialization and the Statement of Purpose sections of the application. Try to be more specific than just selecting the department.
For example, list interests that tie to our departmental research areas. You can also give examples of faculty members whose research is interesting to you. Doing this will help us make sure that your application is reviewed by the best faculty for you. Tell us how Duke will help you pursue your interests, and about your strengths and weaknesses. In addition, when you pick your references, be certain to find people who know you well and can recommend you and your work style.
Questions about Admissions?
Review our Frequently Asked Questions and feel free to contact the department's Director of Graduate Studies or Director of Master's Studies for MS and MEng programs.
The Admissions Process
Doctoral (PhD) and Master of Science (MS) Programs
To apply to your choice(s) for engineering MS and PhD programs, complete and submit the Duke Graduate School application for admission.
For more information about Graduate School admissions and requirements, please visit the Graduate School's admissions website.
How decisions are made
The Graduate School's Office of Admissions processes applications for admission to the MS and PhD programs. As application materials are received, they are checked in by the Graduate School's Admissions staff and they are made available in the Department's electronic application review database. The faculty who are closest to your areas of interest review your qualifications, including GPA, GRE, letters of recommendation, and your fit as a researcher in our program.
Some applicants to our PhD program who are currently residing in North America may be invited to come to Durham and get to know Duke, the department and our faculty. When the faculty have come to a decision on an application for admission to the MS or PhD program, the Director of Graduate Studies will make a recommendation to the Graduate School to admit or deny that applicant. The Dean of the Graduate School will make the final decision on each individual application, and the Graduate School's Office of Admissions will notify each applicant when the final decision is available.
Master of Engineering and Master of Engineering Management
Apply online for both the MEng and MEM program.
If you need more detail about the application process visit the MEng website or the MEM website.
How decisions are made
The Professional Masters Programs Office in Duke's Pratt School of Engineering keeps your application until it is complete—including references, transcripts and GRE scores.
Once complete, your application will be sent to our department and a decision will be returned.

High School Seniors, don't miss upcoming admissions deadlines
Apply to the University of South Carolina by this Thursday, Oct. 15, and you'll receive a decision during the week of Dec. 14.
"The Early Answer option is designed for the convenience of our applicants," said Scott Verzyl, director of admissions. "It alleviates stress for students who don't want to wait until regular notification in the spring and allows them plenty of time to weigh their options and maximize financial aid packages before making their final college choice."
Early Answer decisions are "non-binding," which means if you are admitted, you are under no obligation to enroll at the University.
"Of course, we're pleased when they do choose Carolina," Verzyl said.
To meet Early Answer deadline requirements, you must submit your application and have your official high-school transcript delivered to the admissions office by Oct. 15. Official SAT or ACT scores are also due by this date; however, October scores will count towards meeting the deadline if students designate the University of South Carolina as a score recipient when they take the test.
Upcoming deadlines are:
October 15, 2009: Early Answer Application Deadline
November 15, 2009: South Carolina Honors College and Top Scholars Application Deadline
December 1, 2009: Priority Application Deadline
December 14, 2009: Early Answer Decision Week Begins
February 1, 2010: Credentials Deadline
February 15, 2010: SC Honors College Notification
March 15, 2010: Priority Application Decision Week Begins
