Post subject: Is it mock season already . . . Mock
William Moore
Free Safety
6'0" 221lbs Exp: 4 yrs - Falcons
It is fairly obvious that we need Safety help. I am still confident that Stewart is an NFL player, he just needs to get fully healthy and integrated into the defense. We know he is smart, as he ran the secondary for Spags D in his first real time playing, He just needs to get back out there. Dahl will be a free agent, and if anything in this world is just we will let him walk right down to New Orleans. And Mikell, who has struggled in this scheme thus far, is a very strong candidate to be cut. Do you guys realize we are paying him $10 million this year? And he just turned 32? With a base salary of $6mil in '13 and $7mil for '14 and only $2mil left of his signing bonus, He would be a smart Cut.
But that is all the perfect storm for what is a pretty decent Safety class, both in Free Agency and in the Draft. Willie Mo is the perfect guy to complete this secondary. He is the ascending player that we have been targeting, he fits well into this system as Atlanta's is similar, and Most of all, his attitude fits right in with what we are trying to build on that side of the ball. As a Missouri boy, born and bred, he has said things about coming back home, and this would be the perfect match. The size and stuffing ability to come up and play some LB, with the speed and range to cover guys down the seam and in the deep Zone.
Tommy Kelly
Defensive Tackle
6'6" 325lbs Exp: 9 yrs - Raiders
I brought up Kelly during the pre-season as a guy to watch out for if he gets cut. And here is the same scenario. The Raiders are pretty cash strapped, and Kelly is a rotational guy for them. They could save somewhere north of $4mil if they cut Kelly after the year. He is a guy who Mike Waufle molded into a much better DT than he was when the Raiders overpaid him, and as we have seen recently how desperate we are for DT depth. Trevor Laws would be really nice to have out there right now, and Im sorry but Cudjo is nothing more than a #5 DT in a sub-par rotation.
Kelly could bring in a decent guy for the DT rotation, a guy who can break down the pocket, and rush the passer some. He is getting older and he doesnt have the legs to be a major cog anymore. But as a guy who Waufle trusts, who can do alot of things, (even be a plugger when called upon) he could be really nice to have on a decent/short contract.
Will Svitek
Offensive Tackle
6'6" 309lbs Exp: 8 yrs - Falcons
Svitek is a journeyman lineman who Falcons fans had been clamoring for to be one of their OTs for 2 season now. Unfortunately he got hurt this preseason and isnt able to replace Sam Baker. But it was coach Bou who "coached 'em up" to this guy many are intrigued by. He has been in the league awhile now so he isnt really a guy who is a anchor to an OLine, and Sam baker had been so bad, it didnt take much for ATL fans to be clamoring for someone else.
We need to address the Depth along the OL as well as find a good Starter for RT (at the very least for the starting OL). But Richardson will be a FA, and its unlikely that we keep Wayne Hunter's massive contract on the books past this season. He could restructure, but I would be he tries to find a bigger role somewhere else. Svitek is the perfect guy to bring in that can backup at both OT sports and make everyone feel better about an injury situation.
Danny Amendola
5'11" 188lbs Exp: 4 yrs - Rams
We all know everyone wants to keep him, He is Sam's safety blanket right now, but Sam has also shown the ability to quickly adapt to other weapons (Gibson, Pettis, DX, etc.) so I think that fear is a bit overblown. But I do understand the concern and keeping the right guys around Sam is key. We wont be cheap with him, but we arent going to back a dump truck to his house either. Danny is integral to this offense and they all know that, and as of right now I would be he is in Horns next year and beyond. Gibson and Smith are both lilkely gone, so there will be new blood infused to the system, but continuity is also important to keeping Sams and this offenses progression moving.
Bradley Fletcher
6'0" 200lbs Exp: 4 yrs - Rams
We can all see how much of a passing league it has become (even though the Rams are behind that curve) and it has been becoming more apparent that you dont just need 2 starting CBs on an NFL Roster. You need 3 guys who can be out there at all times as defenses are mostly in Nickle personnel. Its almost a base defense at this point. Some get frustrated with Fletcher dropping potential INTs, I will never understand that, but he is one heck of a cover man (he shut down Calvin while he was matched up with him). I know they drafted Trumain also, but if you can get Fletcher back on a reasonable deal (could get a team breaking the bank for him) then we need to try and keep him here building a shutdown secondary.
Robert Turner
6'4" 308lbs Exp: 4 yrs - Falcons
Turner has been a great surprise for this team. Most offenses just fall apart when their Center goes down, but having a great (and I do mean great) backup Center has held everything together. Paul Boudreau can work magic with guards to plug in, and even help out Waybe Hunter & Barry ichardson, but if you dont have a Center the entire Line falls apart. He is also a nice guy to have as a potential Backup Guard. Good, Versatile Depth, thats what this line needs (Other than a RT)
Jarvis Jones
6'2" 240lbs - Georgia Bulldogs
As you will see with these pick, I think we will end up with 2 Top 10-12 picks. I think both the Rams & Skins absolute ceilings are at 6 wins for this season. I actually think one ends up being a Top 5/6 pick. And of the options I see there, Jones is the best player and the best option for us. I used this picture for a reason, because most around here probably saw the terror that Jones was off the edge against the Tigers. We know the guy can rush the passer, and all the sudden a Scary pass rush turns into a Deadly one. But I have been impressed so far this year, the steps he made in his take on ability at the LOS, how his run defense is looking better and isnt just a guy you let off the leash on 3rd & Long. I very much see Jones with the ability to be a Von Miller type of SLB for us and complete a very nice LB corps. Imagine some 3rd downs and we shift to an amoeba 3-4 look. Long - Brockers - Langford as your front with Jones and Quin as the Standup Rush Backers. Gross.
I know many really want a WR with this pick, I get it, I really do. But I think some team completely reaches for Justin Hunter and his AJ Green prototype measurables, & the potential that he can be a Calvin type.
Keenan Allen
6'3" 202lbs - California Golden Bears
Here is the guy who I think can be the best all around receiver in this Class. He doesnt have the crazy Calvin body type, but he has good size and frame with good/not great speed. He isnt a guy who will consistently take the top off, but I love just about everything else about him. His Route Running is very good, needs improvement, but you can see he doesnt the little things right. He has very good/strong hands and great body control. And while he wont be going deep a tone, he can win most jump balls when they are out there. The most enticing part of his game is his after the catch ability. He has amazing moves in the open field and is great at improvising to get the extra yards. Having the big bodied Quick on the other side and Danny in the Slot, all the sudden this WR corps looks 1000x better than 2011.
D.J. Fluker
Offensive Tackle
6'6" 335lbs - Alabama Crimson Tide
Yes, the OL. It does need to be addressed, but The 1st round pick isnt that likely unless someone just amazes, and right now there isnt a guy like that. Not to mention They dont go after 1st round O-linemen. Its a real thing and those of you who keep deciding to ignore it will likely be disappointed come draft day. But, they do seem to find very good guys in the 2nd & 3rd rounds, especially
type of guys, who fit
system. DJ Fluker was getting a TON of Hype just a few months ago, but once games started, it was prety obvious he didnt deserve that Top of the Draft Ranking most were giving him. He is still a very good player, but he needs to be a RT in a Run heavy scheme. Wouldnt ya know it, thats exactly what we need. Fluker could slide that massive body right next to the nasty Harey Dahl and form a bulldozer on the right side. And just think if Rok ever takes over at RG, that is a HUGE side of the Line. HE has all the talent to be a dominant RT, he just needs better technique and execution, and thats why we have Bou.
Larry Warford
6'3" 335lbs - Kentucky Wildcats
We continue to build the OL and create impressive depth by picking the other War-hog (the first being Chance Warmack). I see this front office and coaches finding their specific type of lineman that will fit the offense they want to Run. Run, that is what they want to do, they want to control the LOS and just wear down defenses. And the type of Lineman they want for that are likely in the Rok mold. Massive men, who are surprisingly spry and lite on their feet. While Warford has played RG almost his whole career, I see with a bit more training (losing some weight) and coaching that he could be one hell of a LG. He is a better Guard that Rok, who would be religated to the Swing Guard spot, and eventually take over for Harvey. I see alot of Larry Allen in Warford's game, just think about having a guy like that.
Saffold-Warford-Wells-Dahl-Fluker - That is a MASSIVE line, and with Turner, Svitek, and Watkins as your key backups we are stocked.
Stedman Bailey
5'11" 195lbs - West Virginia Mountaineers
We should really draft him based on his name alone. HonestlyStedman might be my favorite WR prospect in this draft. He runs amazing routes, very crisp, very clean. The guy knows how to get open. He also has very good hands, these two make him a very reliable option for a QB. That should be good enough, but he has an impressive go-get-it ability and is surprisingly strong with the ball after the catch. But what I like most about him, he is a very smart football player. His on field IQ looks great at this point, and to top it all off he is a nice blocker on the outside. He would make a nice compliment to the Receiving Corps, walking in day one as the #4 option. (Allen/Quick as starters, Danny in the slot, Steadman as #4 at any of the spots, Givens as your specialty deep threat, and Pettis as your reliable backup)
Abry Jones
Defensive Tackle
6'4" 304lbs - Georgia Bulldogs
I have been on Abry since the preseason last year, He doesnt get a whole lot of recognition with all the talent that Gerogia has, but he is a very good Down Lineman in one of the best defenses in the country. He is very workman like, does every part of his job very well. I think he could be one heck of a rotational DT, a guy who can anchor against the run, and push the pocket if he has to. Like I said, nothing flashy, but a guy who I would love to have with Kelly to backup Brockers and Langford.
John Boyett
5'10" 205lbs - Oregon Duck
Boyett is not your best looking safety prospect, heck his game doesnt even translate great to the NFL right now, but his Instincts and Recognition Ability along with the attitude he brings on the field deserves an NFL spot. He doesnt have great range but its good enough, its mostly the explosive speed and measurables he is missing. But in a system where he is already back in a deep zone his recognition & instincts should be able to make up for his shortcomings. He is also good at diagnosing the run, and getting up to stuff it. Would be a nice 3rd Safety for an already impressive secondary

I really do hope we resign fletcher. He has been playing very well this season (i think it was him that almost let marshal get that td but aside from that he has been great) and I hope he remains a ram.
i havvent had a chance to watch much college football this year other then the first two weeks but I like the positions that were drafted.

I'd be pumped. We would be gaining2 defensive starters and potentially 3 offensive starters from an off-season.

Your a man after my own heart. I just posted pretty much the same scenerio in the Thread "Mock". Albeit you have a pick of Decoud up for Willy Mo
I would love that pick up. Just curious as to where you heard he was itching to get back home?
Also agree that we will definately make a push for a OT in free agency as well.
Just like in my draft, I love the Jarvis Jones pick. As you said, I can just see how Fisher would craft that scary plethera of pass rush specialist.
The second 1st rounder in your draft is slightly different from mine, as i had us picking up a WR and not a S in free agency. I had us grabbing Eric Reid with that pick. But if the scenerio you painted comes to light, I would be all over Allen with our 2nd 1st rounder.
I also love the Fluker pick. I'm not quite sure he has the feet or quickness to keep up with NFL LEs but even if thats the case, he's still worth a 2nd rounder as a potential pro bowl calibur guard.
Good job Lunatic

I wanted Mo so bad his JR year IIRC.
Then he lost some money going back to
college. Was a huge fan of him.
Him+Amendola+Fletch==== Home Run IMO.
Plus we already have Long and James locked up..
With Finnegan and JJ.. That is a scary looking D.

Lunatic and other draft lovers, what are your thoughts on DE Michael Buchannon from Illinois?
Do you think he sticks in a 4-3 at end or better suited in a 3-4 on the outside? If he has a strong year, do you think he is a 1st rounder? If so, how high do you think he goes? If not, where do you see him going?

He'll end up in a 3-4 imo. Could easily end up in the 1st round.
As for the mock, I like it. Very solid. I'd go with Kevin Matthews over DJ Fluker though.

I always liked Moore since the days he played at Mizzou.
If we do end up resigning Fletcher, do you guys think they may try to move Trumaine Johnson to Safety?

Haha, I liked the picture so much that I hadnt even realized it wasnt Mo. I switched it up now. And as him coming back home, It wasnt anything like its a major factor in where he would go, he has just said it would be cool to play football in Missouri again.

I still think he can hang, he shows flashes of it, and if he can be taught to use his natural size as a weapon, instead of trying to fight through it, Its going to be hard for LEs to get around him. Ive watched him make one arm blocks, he is so massive and strong that I think he can stick out there (much like Phil Loadholt has done)

Yea, like I said above, I still see more in Fluker than most. But I think that 2nd rounder is where we go grab that RT for us.

Yes, I know. Thats why I have him all the way down in the 6th rounder. he has already said he has every intention of entering the 2013 draft. He would be a good buy low, high upside guy for where he will be picked.

Nope, Especially not if we add a Safety in Free agency or the Draft as well. You need a bunch of CBs, and if we are sitting 4 deep in talent then we wont have to worry about that spot for awhile. He might see some time at Safety, as maybe an emergency backup guy, but he seems like he will be a CB for us regardless.

There is alot of talent at OT/OL and Safety in this draft in the first 2 rounds. I love Keenan Allen, doesnt get enough talk about him in the pac 12 with woods and lee at SC.

Cythnia McKinney,
Democratic U.S. Representative from Georgia, who is known for her blunt, often abrasive, demeanor, apologized in April for an earlier altercation with Capitol police. In March, an officer grabbed McKinney's arm when she ignored his request to stop when she bypassed a metal detector at a House office (legislators are allowed to do so). McKinney then hit the officer. She accused the officer of racism and sexism, but she failed to find much support for her allegations. In her apology she said, "I am sorry that this misunderstanding happened at all, and I regret its escalation." She was defeated in August's Democratic primary election.

Rep. Massa demands Fox News fire O'Reilly and Peters for comments about captured soldier
Rep. Eric Massa's (D-NY) press release [1] in its entirety:
Congressman Eric Massa demands that Fox News immediately fire Bill O'Reilly and Lt. Col Ralph Peters and apologize to the family of PFC Bowe Bergdahl
Retired Navy Commander stands up for Prisoner of War and condemns Fox News
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, Congressman Eric Massa held a press call to condemn the deeply offensive and unpatriotic statements of Lt. Col Ralph Peters (ret.) and Fox News Host Bill O'Reilly about prisoner of war PFC Bowe Bergdahl.
On Fox News on Monday, Mr. Peters, a "strategic analyst" for Fox News, suggested that the Taliban should execute PFC Bergdahl and "save us a lot of legal hassles and legal bills." Rep. Massa, a 24 year retired Navy Commander was shocked and deeply appalled that any American would ever wish for the death of one of our soldiers. You can watch this video by clicking here [2].
On Tuesday night, Mr. Peters made another appearance on Fox's O'Reilly Factor. During this appearance, Mr. Peters refused to apologize and Bill O'Reilly speculated that PFC Bergdahl must be "crazy." You can view that video by clicking here [3].
Earlier that evening, Rep. Massa joined with 22 other Congressional veterans in sending a letter to Fox News Chief Executive Roger Ailes demanding he issue an apology to the family of PFC Bergdahl. You can read this letter by clicking here [4].
"Words cannot express how furious I am at Fox News, Lt. Col Ralph Peters and Bill O'Reilly for suggesting that we should leave a prisoner of war behind and allow him to be executed by the Taliban to save us the trouble of trying to intervene" said Congressman Eric Massa. "Last night I joined with a bipartisan group of 22 other Congressional veterans in demanding an immediate apology to the family of PFC Bergdahl from Fox News, but I don't think that goes far enough. I want to see Mr. Peters and Mr. O'Reilly fired immediately for their inexcusable attacks on a prisoner of war. Their comments aid and abet our enemies during a time of war and the burden is on Fox News to prove that they reject this by taking the tangible action of issuing an apology and firing both of them."
"As a member of the House Armed Services Committee, I know that our military is doing all they can to rescue PFC Bergdahl. My thoughts and prayers are with PFC Bergdahl and his family during this challenging time and I'll do anything I can to help them," added Rep. Massa.
Ralph Peters: If soldier held by Taliban is a deserter, "the Taliban can save us a lot of legal hassles and legal bills" [2]
NBC's Miklaszewski: Pentagon says Peters' comments "could endanger" captured soldier [5]
On CNN, Avlon says Peters "crossed the line" with "wingnut" comments on captured soldier [6]
Peters changes tune on captured soldier: "I do hope for his family's sake this guy comes back safely" [3]

Report: Tennis Weathering Economic Challenges As Sponsorship Deals Grow
August 23, 2010: With tennis heading toward its fourth and final Grand Slam event of 2010, a report shows that domestic and worldwide sponsorship spending on amateur and professional tennis tournaments, leagues and sanctioning bodies is expected to total $600 million in 2010, a 3.2% increase over 2009.
Anchored by a series of new deals on the global, national and local levels, including a multi-year partnership between the ATP World Tour (the governing body for men's tennis) and Mexican beer Corona Extra and a new alliance in the Asia-Pacific region between the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour and Peak Sport Products, the growth in tennis is expected to top a projected 2.8% increase in 2010 sports spending, according to a new study from sponsorship research, consulting and analysis firm IEG, Chicago.
"The sport of tennis has largely replaced the fallout in spending by financial services and automobile companies with new categories, most notably beer and spirits," William Chipps, senior editor of IEG Sponsorship Report, said in a statement.
The report was released about ten days before the start of the 2010 U.S. Open, which runs Aug. 30-Sept. 12. Among the deals cited in the IEG report were new alliances between the U.S. Tennis Assn., which oversees the Open and the preceding Olympus U.S. Open Series, and Esurance and Moet Hennessy's Grand Marnier, respectively.
U.S. Open alliances also include Chase, Citizen, IBM, JP Morgan, Mercedes-Benz, Olympus, American Express, Continental Airlines, Heineken, Polo Ralph Lauren, Canon, Tiffany, Westin and Grey Goose.
In 2009, Mercedes-Benz USA signed as the official automobile partner in a four-year, $35 million deal that included on-site activation and advertising during U.S. Open broadcasts. Earlier this month, Citizen Watch and Polo Ralph Lauren renewed their deals for five-years each, which industry analysts estimated at $20 million and $8 million, respectively. A record 721,059 fans attended the 2009 U.S. Open, according to the USTA. That generated close to $100 million in ticket sales, on-site restaurants, concession stands, souvenirs and other sources.
The U.S. Open is looking to generate similar if not better figures in 2010 despite the fact that several top players already have pulled out of the event due to injuries, including defending men's champion Juan Martin del Potro, world's No. 1 ranked women's player Serena Williams and former No. 1 ranked and U.S. Open winner Justine Henin.

Box score
Newark, Del. – Mark Manos made 15 saves and Robert Church and Brendan Glynn combined for seven goals as Drexel remained unbeaten in CAA play with an 11-8 win at Delaware.
Church scored four times, including two in the final quarter when Drexel increased its lead to five after entering the quarter with just a two goal lead. Delaware (3-7, 0-3) made a late run with three goals in the final four minutes, but the Dragons prevailed and made the final 11-8 when Aaron Prosser scored as time expired. The Dragons improved to 5-5 and 3-0 in the CAA. It was their third straight win and snapped a three-game losing streak against their arch rivals.
The teams played an uneventful first seven minutes before the Blue Hens' offense came alive, due in part to Drexel turnovers. The Dragons turned it over in their own end, setting up a Delaware odd man rush. Grant Kaleikau fed Mark Yetter right in front by himself and he beat Mark Manos giving the Hens the 1-0 lead halfway with just under eight minutes to play. Just six seconds later, the Hens scored on a rebound after a clean face-off win making it 2-0. They extended the lead to three when Kaleikau set up Beau Jones on the Hens' third transition goal of the game. Drexel finally broke through when Aaron Prosser fed Brendan Glynn, who fired a shot 12 yards out, beating Delaware's Chris Herbert, with 2:01 to play in the quarter.
Drexel took care of the ball a little better in the second period which led to much better offensive possessions. The Dragons cut the lead to one with 11:11 left in the half when Ryan Belka got his ninth of the season. Belka fired the shot after a dodge on the right side about 10 yards away. Drexel tied the game at 3-3 on the man-up with 5:53 left. Glynn set up Robert Church for the extra man goal evening the score. It remained that way in large part to Manos. The senior made nine of his saves in the second quarter, including many from in close.
The Dragons took their first lead of the game in the opening minutes when Church put DU up 4-3. That lead lasted just over two minutes as Jones scored his second of the night for Delaware. However, the Dragons responded by scoring three straight to go ahead, 7-4. Andrew Vivian fed Glynn from behind the net and the southpaw scored from right in front of the crease with 7:52 to go in the third. Glynn then set up Bergman for his first of the night. Vivian then got on the board with just under three to play in the third. The freshman came out from behind the net and fired a shot into the far lower corner. The Hens cut the deficit to two late in the quarter. John Austin's unassisted goal with 27 seconds left in the third made it 7-5.
The Dragons return home next Saturday when Penn State comes to Vidas Field. The Dragons and Nittany Lions face-off at 2 p.m.

Perhaps you & your partner are bickering more frequently and damaging your relationship. Maybe your partner has stopped communicating with you & doesn't give you enough attention anymore. Or maybe you've discovered those things you used to think were so adorable or "unique" about your partner are now driving you crazy. Opposite traits often attract us while we are dating, but can become a problem when, for example, night after night your spouse wants to stay home and you need to go out to be around people.

Why I'm Glad We Don't Have A Woman President
Believe it or not, observing Obama's presidency has actually made me glad that we don't currently have a woman in the highest political office. You're probably gasping with shock, after reading that sentence—not only am I constantly voicing my opinion that I think we need more women in politics, I basically developed a massive girl-crush on Hillary Clinton during the 2008 election and it's no secret that I supported her over Obama. But lately, several events have made me question—and I practically cringe even writing this—if 2008 would have been the right time for a woman to step into office.
2012 has in many ways been defined politically by various "women's issues." In the past few months alone, there have been contraception hearings, Rush Limbaugh called Sandra Fluke a prostitute…

All the Deets: Michelle Kwan's Lacy Vera Wang Wedding Gown
Congrats to Michelle Kwan and her new hubby, Clay Pell! Get all the deets on the gorgeous, custom Vera Wang gown Michelle wore at her wedding here!
-Lucia Peters
Congratulations to Olympic champ figure skater Michelle Kwan and her new hubby, Clay Pell! Michelle, now a senior advisor for public diplomacy and public affairs, and Clay, who is the director for strategic planning on the National Security staff at the White House, tied the knot this past Saturday in Providence, RI. Friends in attendance included Michelle's fellow Olympic skaters Brian Boitano, Dick Button, and Dorothy Hamill, and "Fields of Gold," the Eva Cassidy song Michelle skated to at her last Olympics in 2002, featured in her wedding program.
But we know what you're all most interested in: The gown! What did Michelle wear? The choice was easy; she went back to the same designer she wore during her long and storied skating career: Vera Wang.
Vera, who created many of the costumes Michelle skated in, dished to People about the idea behind the gown. "She is marrying someone whose family has a political history, and Michelle is living and working in Washington, D.C.," said the designer; as a result, "[the wedding dress] had to have a certain dignity and a certain classicism, and I think it was a lot about a new way of looking at tradition."
Read All the Deets: Michelle Obama's Inauguration Day Outfit
As such, Vera designed an ivory, strapless mermaid number with layers of and embellished with lace appliqué. About the lace, the designer noted, "The fact that it's got an inordinate amount of handwork in terms of lace is really a tribute to the art of hand-piecing lace. There is a princess/queenly level of sophistication and quiet without sacrificing a lot of detail."
Michelle also opted to change out of her formal wedding gown into a second dress for the reception. When the skater asked Vera what she thought of the idea, "She said, 'Yeah, I got it," according to Michelle. "She said, 'First dance, yes, and then you've got to change into something else.'" No details on what that "something else" was yet, but with luck we'll be getting them soon!
Congrats again to Michelle and Clay!

Ratings for Dr. Amir M. Karam
I recently saw Dr. Karam for possible 2-inch abdominal scar revision surgery. Pretty straightforward procedure, easily accessible area. He and his staff seemed very nice and he seemed knowledgeable regarding the possible surgery. What I wanted to make prospective patients aware of was the outrageous fee quoted for the surgery. I went to 4 other board-certified, well-known, well-experienced plastic surgeons as well. None of them quoted me a fee higher than $1200, everything included. Dr. Karam's office quoted me $5250 for the same exact procedure. Are you kidding me? I'm sure he's probably a very talented plastic surgeon, but so are the others I saw.
This is a great Dentist! Amir has a very kind, gentle touch. He was very informative and he took the time to listen and explain what needed to be done and why. The pricing was fair and he didn't try to rip me off with unnecessary procedures. Not to mention the scenery was amazing; floor to ceiling windows with an incredible view of the city. I highly recommend Dr. Amir!
Dr Karam is the best facial plastic surgeon in San Diego county. I had consultations with many other surgeons before i had my rhinoplasty by him. He did an excellent job and made me feel very comfortable, i was so nervous about having the procedure. Because of him i feel so much more confident. He is the best!:)
Dr. Karam is a very professional and understanding doctor. He listens well and I felt he had a thorough understanding of what I was looking for after my consult. Next, he has an impecable eye and made recommendations that would give an overall better result in terms of my full face fat transfer. He was also very clear about what could and could not be done (in terms of limitations, i.e. 40 year old patients may not look 20 after a face fat transfer) and he and his staff were very coordial as well. In terms of the results of the procedure, the swelling was not bad to begin with and lasted exactly two weeks, as he stated (which is not long considering the procedure). Further, the result was exacty what I was looking for (perhaps a little better in some areas). I could not have asked for a better doctor for this procedure.
I had researched and consulted with five plastic surgeons in San diego for blepharoplasty and I found Dr. Amir Karam the best surgeon to do my upper and lower eyelid surgery. He explained to me what needs to be done, and rightway I trusted Dr. Karam that my expectations will be achieved. I showed Dr. Karam my photos when I was 30 years old, my eyes looked brilliant, tantalizing and beautiful. I am now 60 years old and everytime I looked at myself in the mirror with my droopy eyelids and dark eyebags it made me depressed. I looked tired and haggard all the time. After my eye surgery with Dr. Karam, my eyes looked brilliant, tantalizing and beautiful again like when I was in my 30's!!! Dr. Karam can turn back the time, I am very happy with the result of my blepharoplasty!! I feel young again!! I will go back for a midlift and fat transfer! Dr. Karam's staff is very professional, caring and makes you feel comfortable. Thank you Dr. Karam, Leanna, Ruthie, Deanna and Cheryl. **LBRNY**
I'm very pleased my age 40 and I began to see the signs of aging. I saw a commercial regarding fat transfer. I asked and was told by another doctor to please check out Dr. Karam. I called made ppointment and here I am after two moths of surgery starting to see the results. I look a lot younger fresh and if you didn't know me you would not know I did anything to my face. That is how smooth my Dr. Karam does his job. I get carded yeah. Lol I highly refer him and have my friends and clietns go to Dr. Karam. He is for sure the best. Thank you Dr. and staff . Christina Powers
I had two procedures with Dr. Karam and am very pleased with the results. I felt that Dr. Karam gave me his honest opinion and understood my concerns. The entire staff is wondeful and I will continue to go back. I also would highly reccommend his office to anyone considering comestic procedures. Sincerely MRH
Karam is an artist, and my friends are already lining up. Much gratitude to the doctor and staff, Your very happy patient in OC
I adore Dr. Karam and am so grateful to him. He performed cosmetic surgery on me 2 years ago and I am so happy with the results. I continue to go back to him for wrinkle fillers. Not only is he an incredibly talented doctor and artist, he is one of the nicest doctors I have ever met - he really listens to you and understands your needs and desires. Dr. Karam is very careful to always make you look as beautiful and natural as possible. His staff is very nice also. I highly recommend him!
I chose Dr. Karam because his before and after photographs reveal very little "work" having been done but rather a refreshed, rested, natural result. His staff is always cheerful and willing to answer questions. Dr. Karam makes himself available to his patients before and after surgery so you never feel like you're alone out there.

Völkl cares!
As passionate athletes and individuals, we are active in nature and experience the threats to our living spaces firsthand.
As a passionate winter sports brand, we produce high-end products for use in nature. This requires first and foremost an intact, natural environment. We all live from nature and anything that threatens the environment therefore threatens us as well – both as individuals and as a company.
We know that we – like other industrial firms – leave behind traces in the environment. Yet we don't simply accept this as a given.
We have been working on improvement initiatives for years to reduce our footprint step by step.
Hattrick: Völkl wins the ISPO Eco Responsibility Award for the third time in a row
Once again, Völkl has proven its drive for innovation and mastermind position: with the ECO RENTAL Project and the groundbreaking NAWARO RENT Ski, a fully functional alpine ski model for the rental market, which raises the bar in regard to the preservation of resources.
Due to permanent and demanding use as well as numerous services, rental skis are down the drain, or better ready for the dump after one to three years. Every year 300,000 rentals skis are thrown out by brands and manufacturers worldwide. This means 1,000 tons of waste - waste that mainly consists of fossil material that are not renewable resources.
NAWARO stands for renewable resources. More precisely: 74% of Völkl's NAWARO Skis are made of renewable resources. We use linen, flax fibers, wood cores and recycled steel; the resin, surfaces and bases are composed of at least 50% renewable materials and the color system got economized. This all creates an amazing potential for the gentle handling of our resources.
In 2011/12, Völkl initiates a comprehensive test program for the fully functional NAWARO. This concept was the decisive reason for the competent committee to grant the ISPO Eco Responsibility Award to Völkl - for the third time in a row. In 2009, Völkl's serial ski Nanuq won the award. While in 2010, it was the Amaruq Eco, a classy ski, and Völkl's snowboards Yavana, Cashew und Vice SQD that also took home some "eco credits".

Does a studio-based education make architects specially enthusiastic workshoppers? The scene at the District Architecture Center on day one of YAF Summit20—a national summit of the AIA Young Architects Forum, held in Washington, D.C., in March—would suggest so. Sixty-odd participants had broken into six groups, each one charged with discussing and refining a key goal for young architects that had been identified by voting earlier that day. Almost everyone had opinions about his or her designated topic and wasn't shy to voice them.
At the Starting Your Own Firm table, one architect said that he'd calculated that he'd need to gross about $2,000 per day as a sole practitioner just to support his family. Another observed that more-senior architects probably don't want the AIA to teach leadership skills, because "in a boss's eyes, it's teaching employees to leave." Conversation at the Value of Licensure table grew lively when someone brought up the issue of public awareness. No one understands what architects do, several people complained; even on job sites or working with engineers, it can be a problem.
In their daily lives, individuals will often need to hire a lawyer or an accountant, but rarely an architect, noted one participant.
The Young Architects Forum (YAF) was created in 1991 to help emerging designers network with each other and grow professionally, and also to serve as a collective voice for architects who've been licensed for 10 or fewer years. (Don't be fooled by the group's name—age is not a factor for inclusion, only tenure in the profession.)
Thanks to this broad definition of "young," the YAF represents 28 percent of total AIA membership and 40 percent of all architect members. That may seem like a critical mass. So why does such a large group need special representation, its own voice within the Institute?
According to its handbook, the YAF exists to address issues that are "uniquely relevant to young architects and specifically relate to the development stage of their professional careers." Within the AIA and the profession as a whole, discussion of these early-career issues may get squeezed by would-be architects' hurdles en route to licensure on the one hand, and established professionals' direct design and practice-management concerns on the other.
Modeled on the structure of the College of Fellows, the YAF is led by an "AdCom" (advisory committee) of seven young architects, plus 18 regional liaisons: a liaison each to the AIA Board of Directors and the College of Fellows Executive Committee; the AIA's Emerging Professionals director; and the forum's past chair. Active local and regional YAF groups around the country organize social events, seminars, and the like. At the national level, the YAF publishes a bimonthly Web magazine, Connection; holds an annual Ideas Competition in collaboration with the AIA's Committee on Design; and provides resources on mentoring, leadership, and other topics.
Five years ago, the YAF held its 15th-anniversary summit in Washington. Beforehand, it surveyed members about its priorities, which were narrowed down to 10. The six most urgent were mentorship; human capital; leadership and interaction skills; practice management; credibility of the architect; and responsibility of the architect.
This year, by contrast, the top six to emerge are advancement of the profession; career advancement; value of design; starting your own firm; value of licensure; and economy and change.
Deepika Padam, AIA, a senior designer and project manager at San Francisco's Heller Manus Architects who serves as the YAF's communications adviser and editor in chief, says she was surprised that 2007's three leading issues—mentorship, human capital, and leadership and interaction skills—are absent from 2012's top six. And globalization, "a big deal in today's market," is missing.
"We were completely surprised," says Jennifer Workman, AIA, the YAF's current chair and a project leader at Good, Fulton & Farrell in Dallas. However, she added, the AIA's Board of Directors sees parallels between the shift of focus within the YAF and changing priorities within the AIA as a whole.
One way to interpret the shift? In 2007's hot economy, young architects were climbing the ladder at their firm, or hoping to; or they were keeping an eye out for better jobs. There was more work than they could handle (in the 2007 YAF survey, 22 percent of respondents cited "work overload" as their main professional challenge). Everyone was so busy with continuous project work at firms that mentorship, professional development (i.e., "human capital"), and management skills got pushed to the side.
Now, in the harsher light of 2012, many architects are struggling to simply find the ladder. Expectations have changed: Mentorship, never a given, is now a perk of the fortunate. And with opportunities scarce, you might as well create your own (hence the interest in going solo).
When asked, "Do you see yourself practicing architecture in the same manner throughout your professional career?," only 34 percent of respondents in the YAF's 2012 survey answered "yes." Clearly, most young architects today are not counting on a linear, traditional career trajectory. That might explain why they'd prefer to take their careers into their own hands. The more highly the public values design, and the designer's skill set, the larger the potential client pool—especially if it can include nontraditional clients.
Bradley Benjamin, AIA, the YAF's vice chair and principal of Radium Architecture in South Carolina, says that his initial surprise at the five-year shift abated somewhat when he thought more about the categories and how much they overlap. "Mentoring is something that you can integrate into a lot of … [the 2012 priorities]," he says, especially career advancement and starting your own firm—which depend on the guidance of mentors.
Attendees at the summit were diverse, with an almost 50-50 split between men and women and many people of color. They included educators and unlicensed designers as well as people with no AIA affiliation whatsoever (the latter made up only about 20 percent of the total). But the diversity didn't stretch to employment status: Only one participant was out of work. By and large, these aren't the people who are struggling to break into architecture," Padam says. "We should be thinking about … [people leaving architecture], but it did not end up on the board," she says. "I guess that's because this group are more the leaders, and very involved. They are not even thinking about leaving the profession."
Padam was heartened by the strong interest in advancing and valuing architectural design. "We have been discussing how architects need to be the go-to resource in our communities, as the people … [others] approach when they want to build something, change something, modify something," she says. "People have stopped going to architects. They need to come back to us."
Over the two-day summit, attendees heard presentations on the future of the profession by Lawrence W. Speck, FAIA; HOK's organizational development guru Marsha Littell; and architect's own editor-in-chief, Ned Cramer, Assoc. AIA. They also attended events at Grassroots, the AIA's annual advocacy conference, which was held at the same time. They will continue to talk in their six working groups via conference calls, and the next step is to create action plans addressing the top priorities.
The plans will need time to develop, but Workman and her fellow YAF leaders already have a few ideas. Tabs on Talent is one: a database with young architects' résumés that employers and clients can search when an opportunity arises. Open Door Policy would be a series of networking events hosted by firms, whether they have current openings or not. Benjamin's working group hopes to create a clearinghouse of Web resources for starting your own firm.
The young architects in Washington that week did take one immediate action: opening their wallets. They were shocked when they learned that only 1.5 percent of AIA members donated money to the organization's ArchiPAC political action committee last year. "Before the summit ended," Workman noted proudly, "100 percent made a donation to the PAC."

So, she went to a changing room, which is never a good idea with Lindsay because if you let her go alone you might get your clothes stolen, damaged, or burned by her cigarettes. The staffers let her go alone though and a short time later she emerged wearing nothing and began running around the store while staffers tried to cover her with a blanket. They finally managed to get Lindsay back in the changing room where she dressed and left and didn't show up for an appointment she had scheduled later in the day with a personal shopper.

Riders to Watch
From the January 2013 Issue of TransWorld SNOWboarding
Who To Watch from This Past Winter and the Next
Interviews with Ståle Sandbech, Frank April, Danimals, Johnny Lazz, Forest Bailey, Rusty Ockenden, Helen Schettini, and Brandon Cocard.
The names of certain riders start popping up again and again throughout the season. We hear rumors about whose part is coming together, witness some of the tricks go down firsthand, maybe even help pull a bungee or pack a lip for some of them. When winter's over, we watch the new crop of videos, scour photos, and look at contest results. From there we start a list on which riders we think should get an interview. It's got a lot of names at first, but it gets shorter. Just because someone put out a good part this year doesn't guarantee him or her a spot. They've got to have momentum built on solid riding in the past, but also show promise that they're in it for the long haul. Get to know these eight riders. They're pushing the level of riding today, and we hope they'll do so for a long time to come.

Celebrating The Internet – The Webby Night At The ICA
A couple of weeks ago now we popped down to the ICA for a quick-fire celebration of the internet – The Webby's Night. Organised by our eminent Mr. Roope. This is a little run down of the bits that stuck in my head… Guess what, David Bowie, Beck, and Matt Groening are among the judges for next year's Webby's – pretty cool huh? Some pics of the night here. And some rough, from memory, highlight notes below:
Sam: Lean Mean Fighting Machine
"Dem phones, dem phones them iPhones" video track pointing out how simple new media is, and how much of a fuss people make about it. His advice? "Focus on the things that don't change". People – how and why they talk to each other, what they enjoy – emotional connections. "Don't focus on learning every piece of new technology". That's not where the magic is. Wise words :)
Matt: The Viral Factory
"Cat's rule the internet". ( People laughed the most at this one ). He's probably right. After porn, cats are probably more popular than anything else on the web. Although no-one would admit it, we've all watched the odd cat compilation on YouTube ; ) Essentially, a comment on how a bit of fun and humour are one of the most powerful ways to attract people's attention. It's the Guilty Pleasures that make the internet go round.
Marcus: Deezeen
"Light Bulbs Direct". A comedy look at something that could only be achieved online. As Marcus found out after he couldn't find a bulb for any of his sixties design-classic lamps. Something useful! – a solution to a maddening situation, however mundane, is great. People will thank you for making their life easier, and simpler, and be better off for it. We noted there 'happened to be' a very suspicious resemblance between him and the chap making off with the light bulb in the logo. Marcus is there something you're not telling us ?
Miltos: Neen
What a lovely fella. He showed some of the work of Raphaël Rozendaal, who's wry look at everyday life in the form of simple flash interactions always gets a smile out of me. It's the details that count. The main point made, was the idea of buying physical art, transferred onto digital art. He argues that every digital art piece is a one off. "You can copy the content, but only one person can own the situation". By that he means the url, it's point in space and time, and the message within it. To that end he's been buying up pieces of online art. He might have something there. I liked that it was a really new way of looking at creativity, and digital ownership. And that no matter how much you copy something, the original is still the original, and therefore worth more. It's an upside down way of looking at things, but i like it. The music and film industry should think about that – and also this from Feltron Eight.
It's been a while since the event, so if any of you out there would like to add to this ( comments open below ), or set me straight on details, add links etc – shove it in there! : ) Cheers, Nicky.

The universe's dimensions and distances far surpass human understanding. Numbers that are very large in earthly terms are, in fact, minute when the universe as a whole is considered. For example, the universe is estimated to contain some 300 billion galaxies. Our own Milky Way galaxy, which is just one galaxy, contains about 250 billion stars. The diameter of the Sun, an average-sized star, is 103 times greater than Earth. Alpha Centauri, the nearest star to the Sun, is some 78,000 km (48,467 miles) distant from it.
Space and the billions of galaxies contained within it, the secrets of which are still a mystery, move in their determined courses and influence each other by means of enormous gravitational forces. With the giant scales involved in this magnificent universe, all of its contents act according to a destiny that has been determined for them. Each one's movement, rotational speed, temperature, and distance has been determined in the Sight of Allah, Who creates a tiny creature, invisible to the naked eye, in the depths of the ground. The One Who appoints its destiny is also the One Who perfectly creates the giant stars and keeps them, as well as all that exists, constantly under His supervision. Allah demonstrates His might and greatness in both instances.
No matter what we may study on Earth and in the skies, we will always be confronted by His sublime and impeccable artistry. No entity can acquire any attribute by chance or maintain the existing order and balances by chance, for all of these are under the control of a sublime and boundless intelligence: Almighty Allah, the Lord of the worlds.

Do Guys Prefer Women with Big Boobs?
What's the deal with men and women's breasts? Real guys do their best to explain.
-Justin DeMarco
Are bigger breasts such a turn-on for guys – or such a proven confidence-booster for women unhappy with their bodies – that you should call up Dr. 90210 right this minute and schedule a breast augmentation? My advice: Wait until you've read this article (and have commented and given me a five-star rating), and then make your decision.
In all seriousness, yes, some women (and more than a few guys) do believe that the bigger a woman's bra size the more men she'll attract. But for those who think all men care about is big breasts, I say, Wait a minute, Missy! Men don't only care about big boobs. Give us a little credit. We like butts, legs, abs and yes, faces, too.
"Sure, I like boobs," says Tommy, a 29-year-old engineer from Long Island. "But it's not a deciding factor when it comes to dating someone. I can usually find ten other things that attract me to a woman before I consider her chest size."
Read What Men Notice First About A Women
See, ladies! All men aren't dogs, even though we occasionally do share some similarities. For example just like K-9's sniff out drugs and go berserk when they locate narcotics, some men are always on the lookout for that perfect set of breasts, great butt or sexy legs, and flip out when they find them. It's like we have an internal radar system that seeks these things out and can never be shut off.
"As a guy, it's your job to be able to spot a good rack from across the bar or even on a woman sitting on the other side of the arena at a basketball game," says Drew, a 25-year-old Phoenix radio host.
But the male fascination with breasts goes beyond just staring at them, of course. For most guys, they're the ultimate turn-on because they're right there. It makes it easier to fantasize about what a night with that girl would be like when you've already had a glimpse of what she's offering. Of course, men tend to be pretty hands-on, too.
"They're fun to play with," says Jason, a 31-year-old Houston lawyer who claims he's more of an ass man because he knows woman have to work for it. "Society has programmed us to be attracted to boobs."

Your child just had surgery to treat a heart problem. This procedure required an incision down the chest or sternum (breastbone) or between the ribs. Following are general guidelines to care for your child at home after heart surgery. If needed, your child's doctor and nursing staff can answer questions and give you more information.
Don't lift your child under the arms for at least 4 weeks after surgery. Lifting stretches the chest and can cause pain at the incision site.
Keep the incision clean and dry.
Don't submerge your child in water for a bath for at least 2 weeks after surgery. It's OK to clean and wash around the incision, but don't spray water directly on it.
Check the incision site daily for redness, drainage, swelling, or separation of the skin, and monitor your child for pain. Itching is normal, but call the doctor right away if you notice any of the signs listed below.
Keep your child in loose-fitting clothing to prevent rubbing against the incision.
Don't allow your child to lift any heavy objects for at least 6 to 8 weeks.
Keep your child from rough play or contact sports for 2 to 3 months (discuss this with your doctor).
If your child is a teenager with a driver's license, don't allow him or her to drive for at least 2 weeks.
Your child may feel pain while recovering at home. It's important for your child's healing to control the pain. Give your child over-the-counter or prescribed pain medications as directed by your child's health care provider.
Most children return to a normal diet while they are still in the hospital. Infants or newborns recovering from heart surgery may have a harder time with feeding. Breast milk or formula should be given to your child as directed by your child's health care provider.
Protect your child from infections during healing. You should wash your hands often with soap and water. So should anyone else who takes care of your child. Limit contact with visitors and avoid crowded public areas. If people in the household are ill, try to limit their contact with your child.
Your child will need to rest 1 to 2 weeks at home before going back to normal physical activity or returning full-time to school. It's important not to push your child until he or she is ready to return to a normal routine. But getting up and walking several times during the day is good for your child's recovery.
Your child has just gone through a stressful experience and may be unhappy or moody after heart surgery. It's important to be patient and support your child during this time.
You'll need to make an appointment with your child's cardiologist and surgeon. Follow-up tests may be done to check how well your child's heart is working.
After heart surgery, call the doctor right away if your child has:
Increased pain, redness, draining, swelling, or bleeding at the incision site
A fever:
In an infant under 3 months old, a rectal temperature of 100.4°F (38°C) or higher
In a child 3 to 36 months, a rectal temperature of 102°F (39°C) or higher
In a child of any age who has a temperature of 104°F (40°C) or higher
A fever that lasts more than 24 hours in a child under 2 years old, or for 3 days in a child 2 years or older
A seizure caused by the fever
Chest pain
Increased tiredness
A poor appetite
Decreased fluid intake
Prolonged nausea and vomiting
A cough that won't go away
Trouble breathing
An irregular heartbeat
You do not think your child is improving

So those monks are allowed to enter any shops they choose to, to receive medical treatment wherever they wish and to travel freely even though they have no travel permit? They are not ostricised or restricted in any way? They receive the same rights as the monks at Sera and are treated with equal respect?

Reacting to an opinion that the city's three-night Ho Ho Parade was not an essential expense in a city fighting to stay in bankruptcy court, stakeholders have raised more than $1,000 to cover the cost of gas and "wear and tear" for city-owned vehicles used in the parade.
Participants from the San Bernardino Police Department, San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department and city Code Enforcement, Parking Enforcement and Animal Control as well as American Medical Response all volunteered their time, and other expenses associated with the parade had already been privately funded.
The parade - an annual tradition going back 30 years - wound through the city Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday night.
Monetary donations came from Sharon Gaitan-Blechinger of the Mexico Cafe, Steven Oquendo of Mitla's Cafe, Supervisor James Ramos, School Board Trustee Judi Penman, City Attorney James F. Penman, City Councilmembers Robert Jenkins and Wendy McCammack, and San Bernardino Professional Firefighters.
"The good will, holiday spirit and pride the residents feel for these small acts of kindness, time and money make every minute of this endeavor worth every smile we saw on the kids faces," McCammack said. "Many families are having a rough go of it during these financially lean times. A chance to see 'Santa' at no cost to them made it worth every penny spent."

School honored for innovative and impactful MBA entrepreneurship program at 2011 United States Association for Small Business and Entrepreneurship Conference

Airodump will report signal strength.
Netstumbler (Windows) will report signal strength using a supported card.
So I've been working on various things to crack my WEP key. So far, things have been going quite well. Sorta.
One thing that I noticed is that I'm not getting anywhere NEAR the amount of IVs that I need.
In the span of 4hours, I had accumulated less than 1000. This is ridiculously slow.
I've searched the forum here, and I think I've determined the problem. Although I have no idea if it is or not.
I think it's the signal strength. 'Think' being the key word. I have no way to tell for sure.
At least right now.
So my question is, using the command line tools that are used to crack a WEP key, how can I determine what the signal strength is?

I took a look at Airodump tho... And I think I know what you're talking about.
And therein lies my confusion. Right now, it's reporting it '-1'. No matter of where I move, this number doesn't change at all... Is there maybe something else that'll report the strength?
kismet do it ...
iwconfig too (just the lnk strenght)
Watch your back, your packetz will belong to me soon... xD

if it is going slow, have you been trying replay attacks?
kismet also tells you signal strength.
I agree with seven.
Have you tried different aireplay-ng attacks? -3, -2 ?
