Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
There is a procedure and I can't think of the name, term...
I heard of and read about "delayed prosecution" but my understanding is WA ST doesn't offer that option and there is "divert" down to a lower court and charge, but there was another one year delay option and I can't think of the term, benefits or what's required of the defendant(s), any takers??
It sounded similar to delayed prosecution.
There are many such options. It really depends on if the charge is a property crime, DUI, or drug crime.
Misdemeanor Options:
Compromise of a Misdemeanor - turns a crime into a civil contract for payment of damages and dismisses the criminal case.
Pre-trial Diversion Agreement - also called a Stipulated Order of Continuance, Stay of Proceedings, Continuance without a Finding. All are really the same. Defendant waives right to trial, speedy trial, and other rights, stipulates to the admissibility of the police reports if he or she fails the program - at which point the judge reads the reports and 99.99% of the time finds the defendant guilty. If the defendant succeeds - which means jumps through all the hoops (treatment etc) and has no new criminal charges - the case is dismissed and there is never a conviction.
Deferred Sentence - Defendant pleads guilty and sentence is deferred. He or she jumps through all the hoops and has no new convictions and then after 1 or 2 years the plea is vacated and the case is dismissed.
Deferred Prosecution - is usually for DUI or can be used on other crimes if alcohol abuse or mental health issues are the cause of the criminal conduct. Like a diversion, there is no plea of guilty but there is usually 24 months of intensive treatment, and then a probationary period of up to five years before the case is dismissed.
Felony: Depending on the county, there can be felony diversion options. There are many types and various approaches.
That said - no lawyer can really advise a defendant of his or her options without being hired or appointed and after having the opportunity to fully review a defendant's case and criminal history.

Sorry for confusion, charge is gross misdemeanor, non D V, non traffic. non violent non drug.
Deferred Prosecution? You need to give more facts. Deferred Prosecution is a treatment plan laid out in Statute. There are other County specific resolutions (Continuance without Findings, Pre Trial Diversion, etc..) but they are not statutory and are the creation of specific Counties. You need to state where you are.Ask a similar question
What you are describing are terms of art (fancy lawyer speak for descriptions of options or terms in legalese) from other jurisdictions that generally don't apply to Washington courts. But most Washington courts offer options that are similar. Its just that you can't go up to the prosecutor and ask "May I have a delayed prosecution?" without getting the fish eye, but ask the right prosecutor for a "Stipulated Order of Continuance" and you might get something similar. In Washington, there is generally no "delaying" the filing of the charge for plea options. And this is really only true for misdemeanors, not felonies. It's not hard, just detailed and difficult to explain unless everyone is understanding what is happening.Ask a similar question
Like the previous attorneys said, there are many different options (some have different names in different courts). We would need to know what type of case you are asking about in order to tell you what options apply to that charge. Some diversions result in a less serious charge, some in dismissal.
In Washington, we have deferred prosecution, deferred sentence, pre-trial diversion, stipulated order of continuane aka cintinuance without finding, to name a few. Pierce County has their own El Cid diversion program, Thurston County has Friendship diversion, etc.Ask a similar question
There are many options - that go by many names in various courts and jurisdictions. This options are more likely to occur in District Court than in Superior Court with a felony charge.

Chanakya's Letter to Chandragupta on the "Soldier"
By AIF Staff
"History does not repeat itself," it is famously said, "but fools repeat history." Philosopher-poet George Santayana put it slightly differently when he wrote— "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."
The current affair involving the COAS(Chief of Army Staff) and the Defence minister has attracted much acrimony and generated much debate. The COAS, VK Singh has been made scapegoat and his reputation is being tarnished, while the issues raised by him are not even part of discussion. The whole debate is focused on the propriety of the actions of the Army Chief, but not on whether the bureaucracy and the government were justified in delaying the whole process of army modernization. Nearly all defence deals have been tainted by allegations of corruption by politicians and bureaucracy. Is it fair then to blame Army for delay in modernization, which in fact, is the only one of those few institutions untainted by crass commercialism so common in"Post-91″ India and a institution which is an epitome for discipline – something which is in serious deficit with our political class and bureaucracy?
Accountability from the Armed Forces is being demanded by our political masters and bureaucracy – but are those who are demanding accountability have ever been accountable to people – having betrayed their trust in innumerable instances?
Writing in The Chakra, NS Rajaram, mentions -
Some vested interests have been targeting General V.K. Singh for months. First it was his date of birth which should have been an internal matter, and now this. Why? Because, General Singh is known to be very strict; and totally against corruption and irregularities. This comes in the way of people interested in making money in defense contracts. They want him out of the way as soon as possible.
The article also contains excerpts of letter written by Chanakya to Chandragupta, on the matters of defence, and has salient points which are worth noting, especially by our idea-bankrupt leadership. The wording may not be exact, but still contains enough wisdom for the Prime Minister and the Defense Minister to read and benefit from. Kautilya discretely but firmly reminded the king that his safety and security as well as of his empire depend on the trust and sacrifice of his soldiers.
"The Mauryan soldier does not enrich the Royal treasuries nor fills the Royal granaries. He does not carry out trade and commerce nor produce scholars, litterateurs, artistes, artisans, sculptors, architects, craftsmen, doctors and administrators. He does not build roads and ramparts nor dig wells and reservoirs. He does not do any of this directly.
"The soldier only and merely ensures that the tax, tribute and revenue collectors travel forth and return safely; that the farmer tills, harvests, stores and markets his produce unafraid of pillage; that the trader, merchant and financier function and travel across the length and breadth of the realm unmolested; that the savant, sculptor, maestro and mentor create works of art, literature, philosophy and astrology in quietitude; that the architect designs and builds his Vaastus without tension; that the tutor and the priest teach and preach in peace; that the rishis meditate in wordless silence; that the doctor invents cures and medicines undisturbed; that the mason and bricklayer work unhindered; that the mother and the wife go about their chores and bring up children in harmony and tranquility; that the cattle graze freely without being lifted or stolen.
"Pataliputra reposes each night in peaceful comfort, O King, secure in the belief that the distant borders of Magadha are inviolate and the interiors are safe and secure, thanks only to the Mauryan Army standing vigil with naked swords and eyes peeled for action, day and night, in weather fair and foul, all eight praharas (round the clock), quite unmindful of personal discomfort and hardship, all through the year, year after year.
"While the citizenry of the State contributes to see that the State prospers and flourishes, the soldier guarantees it continues to EXIST as a State! To this man, O Rajadhiraja, you owe a debt: please, therefore, see to it, on your own, that the soldier continuously gets his dues in every form and respect, be they his needs or his wants, for he is not likely to ask for them himself."
Then Kautilya, known also as Chanakya gave his king this blunt warning: "The day the soldier has to demand his dues will be a sad day for Magadha for then, on that day, you will have lost all moral sanction to be King!"

Prince is seen taking his game with Yuvika forward full throttle. Expressing to Yuvika how he gets negative vibes from Aman, Kishwer and Suyyash, Prince opens up to all in the house about his feelings for Yuvika. Taking a stand for Yuvika when she is getting brickbats for being klutzy with the paranthas, Prince Charming multi-tasks by also being her Knight in Shining Armour!
On the other hand, Mandana's mood is beginning to create quite a ruckus inside the house. In the morning, she is seen telling partner Keith how his girlfriend Rochelle needs to take a chill pill and that she is not here to break them up! She is also seen fuming at Aman when he is playfully stopping her from punching him.
The phobia task continues, gathering momentum, even as Bigg Boss is upping the ante and announcing that the luxury budget will be delegated to the pair who wins the challenge.
The next challenge which is surrounding the fear of needles or Trypanophobia is given to Suyyash and Rimi by Roopal and Digangana. Realising that this challenge would require them to make permanent tattoos of 'Bigg Boss', Suyyash requests Bigg Boss to let them know the size of the tattoos. Without any clear indication of the size, Rimi refuses to have the tattoo made. Upon understanding that the size of the tattoo is too big for their comfort, Suyyash throws a hissy fit saying that the font and size is not acceptable to them. Citing unfair treatment upon not getting an answer from Bigg Boss, Suyyash's temper levels quickly escalate. Raising the white flag, when the duo comes back into the living area, Mandana is seen taunting Suyyash about his comment against her. Breaking down and crying, Mandana creates quite a ruckus while Suyyash apologises to her and is even crooning a song to make her feel better!
On the other hand, Rochelle is feeling quite disappointed that their jodi was not challenged for any task and hence, did not get any opportunity. Immediately jumping into action, partner Prince is seen telling her that the rest of the house is feeling threatened by them. Later in the day, Roopal is seen speaking about how her break-up with Ankit affected her, Roopal is making it quite known in the house that she has now turned over a new leaf. While she used to be serious and reserved initially, she is now a self-proclaimed fun and bubbly girl!
Just before lights go out, Mandana is seen making quite a scene of having to sleep anywhere within a kilometre's radius near Vikas and Arvind. However, Mandana's stubborn attitude does not help her case. In a funny turn of events, Kishwer is seen imitating Mandana while narrating her selfish attitude to others as they call it a day.

In Celtic green was Larry Bird, the hick from French Lick with laser-beam focus, relentless determination, and a deadly jump shotand#8212;a player who demanded excellence from everyone around him and whose caustic wit left opponents quaking in their high-tops. Magic Johnson was Mr. Showtime: young, indomitable, a magnetic personality with all the right moves, he was a pied piper in purple and gold and he burned with an inextinguishable desire to win. Their uncommonly competitive relationship came to symbolize the most thrilling rivalry in the NBAand#8212;East vs. West, physical vs. finesse, old school vs. Showtime, even white vs. black. Each pushed the other to greatness, and together Bird and Johnson collected eight NBA Championships and six MVP awards, helping to save a floundering NBA. When the Game Was Ours chronicles an electric era in sports history, revealing for the first time the inner workings of two players dead set on besting each other.
Driving Mr. Yogi is the story of how a unique friendship between a pitcher and catcher is renewed every year. It began in 1999, when Yogi Berra was reunited with the Yankees after a long self-exile, the result of being unceremoniously fired by George Steinbrenner fourteen years before. A reconciliation between Berra and the Boss meant that Berra would attend spring training again. Guidry befriended "Mr. Yogi" instantly. After all, Berra had been a mentor in the clubhouse back when Guidry was pitching for the Yankees. Guidry knew the young players would benefit greatly from Mr. Yogi's encyclopedic knowledge of the game, just as Guidry had during his playing days, so he encouraged Berra to share his insights.
Soon, an offhand batting tip from Mr. Yogi turned Nick Swisher's season around. Stories about handling a hitter like Ted Williams or catching Don Larsen's perfect game captured their imaginations. And in Yogi, Guidry found not just an elder companion or source of amusement — he found a best friend.
At turns tender and laugh-out-loud funny, and teeming with unforgettable baseball yarns that span more than fifty years, Driving Mr. Yogi is a universal story about the importance of wisdom being passed from one generation to the next, as well as a reminder that time is what we make of it and compassion never gets old.

Applauded by Gov. Bobby Jindal, opponents of Common Core have held two town hall meetings and plan six more statewide in a final bid to kill the new educational standards in the Legislature.
State Rep. Brett Geymann, R-Lake Charles, said Friday that because next year is an election year and Jindal is now a top critic of the overhaul, bills to shelve the standards will have a better chance than they did earlier.
"So things are a little different in the spring of 2015 than they were in the spring of 2014," said Geymann, who organized the first anti-Common Core gathering in Moss Bluff on Sept. 29.
Organizers said about 800 people attended.
In an interview, Jindal said the meetings could pave the way for the Legislature to pass bills to curb the standards. Such bills repeatedly failed during the 2014 session.
"I do think it will put pressure on legislators," the governor said.
Jindal's office issued a prepared statement on Friday that cited complaints about Common Core that surfaced in Houma on Thursday night.
Other gatherings are scheduled between now and early November in Baton Rouge, Abbeville, Lafayette, St. Tammany Parish, Alexandria and Bossier City, Geymann said.
State Superintendent of Education John White, who backs Common Core, said rolling back the standards would be a huge mistake.
"The thought of throwing it in reverse, that's a recipe for chaos," White said. "You can't just undo five years of work by flipping a switch."
Common Core represents new academic standards in reading, writing and math. The standards are being taught in classrooms statewide.
A judge in August issued an injunction that lifted the Jindal administration's suspension of two state test contracts that White and others plan to use for spring exams aligned with the new standards.
However, the court ruling is being appealed, and Jindal has launched a separate challenge in federal court.
Geymann and four other lawmakers recently traveled to Oklahoma City, where the Legislature there killed Common Core earlier this year.
He said the town hall meetings were one of the ideas that emerged from their meeting with some Oklahoma senators, representatives and others on Aug. 22.
"The key for them was the involvement of the grass-roots efforts and that they never could have done it without it," Geymann said.
State Rep. J. Rogers Pope, R-Denham Springs, who also made the trip, said the gatherings could ignite a spark that paves the way for the approval of anti-Common Core bills when the Legislature meets in 2015.
"I don't think the legislators are going to do it unless they get enough input from their constituents," said Pope, who was superintendent of the Livingston Parish school system from 1987 to 2001.
Barry Erwin, president of the pro-Common Core Council for a Better Louisiana, said the rallies already have featured some of the same opponents of the standards that earlier this year tried unsuccessfully to make their case to state lawmakers.
"Some of the messages that are coming out of the meetings didn't resonate with the Legislature the first time, and I don't think they will again," Erwin said.
Jindal, who said he remains confident on the legal front, also said the new standards have caused him problems as a parent.
"Common Core is making math unnecessarily complicated," he said. "It has frustrated a lot of students."
Said Geymann, "If we go another year, then it becomes incredibly difficult. The spring of 2015 is the best chance."

The FileMaker Developer's Network is a 'loosely' associated set of FileMaker developers and development companies which share a commitment to the client beyond all. This way sound like an obvious goal, but many developers struggle between a balance of being specialize enough to be a 'ace' within their field and being familar will all the 'other' related technology.
The reality is that their is no such thing as a 'perfect' developer, mentor, or coach. Many smaller developers offer better value than a large development firm; however, they often find times when their availability is limited and/or their skill-set is not ideal for the current phase of a project.
The concept of this 'group' is that we can work together to 'share' projects and/or parts of a project so that the client gets a superior level of service no matter how the project may change through it lifecycle.
[tabs slidertype="top tabs"] [tabcontainer] [tabtext]For the Client[/tabtext] [tabtext]For the Developer[/tabtext] [tabtext]For the Project Manager[/tabtext] [tabtext]For the Salesman[/tabtext] [/tabcontainer] [tabcontent] [tab]As a client, you want to make sure that there is a 'checks and balances' system in place to assure that your coding is being done well and within acceptable timeframes. The persumption is that if all the skills and time required to define, design, and double-check a developer's code; then you most likley would be doing your own coding.
By utilizing a 'design team', you will have at least two experainced developers working on your project.
- Colaboration almost always produces better code/ more attractive interfaces
- If a developer and/or project manager does not have time/ skills to continue, the project can go on
- A Project Manager checks code and approves the 'billable' time and confirms that time
[/tab] [tab]As a developer, you want to be able to develop- not speand time selling, colecting, etc.
[/tab] [tab]
As a project manager, you have years of experaince of working with development projects, but just don't have the time to do everything yourself. Our perspective is that the project manager should be the 'architect' of a solution- he/she sketches out a concept based off of client requirements, and then when a developer returns a project, they can look at it and say 'yes, that was my vision' [/tab] [tab]As a salesman, trying to find quality developers is a real challenge. FileMaker is a niche market, and even among FileMaker developers, there is a huge difference in the levels of expertise.
By working with FM Developer's Network members, you get to utilize quality professionals who are experainced with working within the FileMaker community and the FileMaker Platform. No more hiring 'developers' who are learning FileMaker throughout your project because they think that FileMaker is 'close enough' to other environments.
At this stage, you have seen no mention of rates- that because the projects and/or the clients set the rates (hopefully at fair market value). The payment structure of the FM Developer's Network is based on percentages; therefore if a project is very basic and does not require 'senior-level' developers, it can be quoted at an appropiate rate. Likewise, if a developer just needs a 'complex feature' written within a larger solution, they can 'contract' this piece out and still make money on work that is outside of their skillset and/or available schedule.

I like my stocks to be predictable. And one of the most predictable stocks I own, at least as far as the dividend is concerned, is Procter & Gamble, the big consumer products company.
P&G operates in 80 countries and is famous for brands such as Pampers, Tide, Crest, Charmin, Duracell and dozens of others. Last year the company generated sales of $82.6-billion and profit of $11.8-billion.
But what's really appealing about P&G is its dividend.
The company has been paying a dividend every year since 1890, and it has raised its dividend for 56 consecutive years.
That includes a 7-per-cent increase that was announced on April 13.
Here's a Bloomberg chart of P&G's annual dividend going back to 1992. Notice how the dividend has been rising steadily and predictably. In fact, it's grown about nine-fold over that time.
You can't control the prices at which your stocks trade. But if you buy a company like P&G, you can be pretty sure that you'll get a dividend increase every year.Report Typo/Error

The Wooden O Theater
In 1599, Richard Burbage built the first permanent settled theater. In 1599, the owner of the land on which Burbage had built his theater apparently decided to raise the rent. On the night of January 20, 1599, James Burbage's sone Cuthbert and others on the company stealthily took their theater apart timber by timber and rowed the pieces across the river where it was later reconstructed and called "The Globe".

How to Pull a collapsing bed prank with fishing line
A person's bed is their sacred place of rest, a place where they should theoretically be safe from pranks and shenanigans. Yeah right! This video will show you how to set up a great dorm-room or roommate prank where you remove the supports from their bed frame, replace them with fishing line that will only just support the mattress, then wait for them to return and try to lie down. Bam! Total collapse, total hilarity.

From Brandon Sanderson's website:
It's here, and I'm free to post it.
My thoughts? I like it a lot better than the sketch that was floating around. I like how he covered the stump of the arm with the cloth; I was wondering how that would be painted without looking very strange. It's also very odd to see my name beneath Mr. Jordan's in front of a Darrell Sweet cover. I wonder if that will ever NOT feel strange.
Dragonmount has this posted too; I assume there will be a lively discussion there, if you're looking to talk to other fans about it.

When I first received this dress from Banana Republic I loved how feminine and beautiful it was. (Their whole line right now is really just to die for). There was part of me that saw this dress as a challenge to make it edgy and another part that knew it was the perfect dress to wear to a wedding or to meet his parents. When I tried it on my roommate wouldn't stop shrieking at how pretty it looked on. It was like this structured dress was built for my body type (which rarely happens). Nonetheless I still felt like it was SO girly. I was freaked out looking in the mirror at this new person in front of my eyes. It was fascinating how much just one piece could change my look so much. So I decided, let's add some sass to it. With few studs here and there added with a belt and slingbacks, we were ready to go! I know this is an eclectic look, but what do you think? It'd obviously look great with a pair of espadrilles and a straw bag at the beach...but sometimes you just have to do the opposite of what you know.

Military Chic
My M.O. is paring girly items with edgy, tomboy, or avantgarde items. I think it's because I was raised in a family of artists where not only my outfits were about what looked good together it was about composition and balance. If you wore something super girly, wear it with a military jacket. If you were wearing something really dark and edgy, wear soft makeup or balance the look with a feminine accessory. My mother always instilled this in me and today I am so thankful for that. We used to always make fun of the word juxtaposition because it was (and still is) such a buzzword...BUT fashion is about balancing your look with opposing trends and styles. It brings everything together, especially when you're an edgy boho girl like me wearing a lacy ruffled dress.

Lady Love
I think maybe every post is just going to be about a playlist moving forward. This one in particular is filled with all female artists, I made it for a friend and it has quite the array of genres, but I love that it's an entire playlist has all female vocals. Because girls rock. End of story.

Oscar de la Renta at the de Young
I've been hunting for this quote for so long that now I am convinced I dreamt up the whole thing. But...recently I was reading an article and it had a quote about why fashion is art. It went along the lines of, "Fashion is most certainly art, how could you argue that something that makes you feel something every day, every time you get dressed, is not art?" I've looked at plenty of art (especially from being born into a family of artists) that has made me feel nothing. Everytime I get dressed it's a rollercoaster of emotion, confidence, sulking, smiling, hating, how could clothing make someone feel such a way!
So when I was at the Oscar de la Renta press preview and a woman came up to me and said she wasn't sure if the exhibit could be justified as an art exhibit, I was shocked. Mostly amused by her hollow outlook on the arts in general, but since then ,y interest in this topic has continued over the past few weeks. When I overhear my friends talk about looks they wear to feel confident I try to dig deeper and it's amazing to hear their responses. They all exclaim that they agree and that they too find it's fascinating that fashion can make you FEEL something.
What I'm trying to say is that this exhibit makes you feel something. It's seriously one of the most amazing shows I've ever seen. The way the exhibit was designed, the kind words of André Leon Talley and his curation, and the array of designs displayed (that were all still SO relevant) just blew me away.
Some of my favorite moments of André's discussion about Oscar and the exhibit:
In tears, "His [Oscar's] world was a world of flowers, entertaining and loyal friendships."
"Oscar wanted the dresses to make women feel happy. He loved living in the sun and nature. He loved singing and dancing. He wanted his clients to feel beautiful."
Oscar asked me if André wanted to meet someone, André kept dilly dallying around the subject and finally Oscar told André it was Laura bush. André explains his hesitation to meet her with, "I thought it was inappropriate to meet Laura bush in a sable lined trench coach and a tracksuit."
"Oscar made me stand taller. I learned by example, I was insecure and Oscar saw something in me that I didn't see in myself."
So all in all what are your thoughts on fashion, emotions, and the fashion is art debate? I'd love to hear in the comments below!
One of my favorite dresses is Annette de la Renta's favorite!
These pants are truly a dream.
Pants and tunic, yes please.
This coat.

Rose Gold & Thursday Tunes
I hadn't realized I started obsessing over black and rose gold until one day I looked down at my wrist and at the headphones on my lap...and noticed they matched. Which kind of got me on a whole coordinates thing, what if they made watches and headphones that matched...on purpose! Well if they did that I would suggest that Tokyobay and Sudio Sweden partnered immediately. As much as I am crushing on these pieces individually, let's talk about them on their own.
Tokyobay – a local San Francisco watch and leather good company that has been on my radar for awhile. Totally stylish, stackable, and chic watches for a classic, boho, or retro gal. The guys pieces are gorgeous too! I love this big black watch and the feminine touch of rose gold. I wear it every day!
Sudio Sweden – I needed headphones and I needed them badly. I've been on such a music kick lately and noticed my headphones we're producing the best sound. I discovered Sudio and haven't gone back since. The sound quality is superb, the cable never tangles, and the design is beautiful. Plus, they came with a carrying case that I love because I can throw them in my purse and always know they're safe, organized, and easy to access! If you're looking for yourself or a gift these are PERFECT and you won't regret investing in the premium swedish design. Want a pair for yourself? Take 15% off with the code FOXSTYLE15
To celebrate good sounds, amazing design, and that the week is almost over I've put together a playlist of my favorite tunes right now! Check it out and follow me on Spotify for more.

Some assembly required
Despite being the latest movie tie-in spawned from the tawdry Sega/Marvel pair-up, Captain America: Super Soldier is actually a quiet success, even if it never quite manages to live up to its high ambitions.
Its major accomplishments rely squarely on design liberally borrowed from the superb Batman: Arkham Asylum. Taking control of the patriotic Nazi-smasher in the middle of the films events, the action is constricted to one castle-based setting that acts as a purposeful backdrop to the action.
Again, much like the Dark Knights gaming zenith, the focus is on the combat and Super Soldier doesnt disappoint. Brutal combos, fiendish acrobatics and mesmerising animations make the action breathless, with Captain America dispatching foes with finesse, utilising his signature star-spangled shield with deadly efficiency.
Its a shame then that the rest of the game is so by-the-numbers. Platforming remains a mundane, albeit stylish, exercise, with no real sense of exploration as youre consigned to specific points to leap to and from.
The open-world environment itself is shallow, with collectable trinkets arbitrarily scattered around the environment to extend the gameplay but theres little else to investigate. The visuals are uninspired, the story poorly told and the whole thing is crushingly short at around six hours.
But the combat remains thrilling throughout, elevating Super Soldier above the doldrums of Segas other superhero efforts. With a little more attentiveness, Captain America could have been force to be reckoned with, but as it is, it ends up as just an enjoyable step in the right direction for Sega.

Pittsburgh Steelers open mini-camp with three important rookies finally in camp and without Mike Wallace
The Pittsburgh Steelers opened mini-camp today in preparation for the 2012 season. Of course, the big news of the day was expected as Pro Bowl wide receiver Mike Wallace did not report. The restricted free agent has still not signed his RFA tender and looks to continue his holdout by missing these five mandatory sessions. Besides the Wallace story, the focus turned to the Steelers first two selections in the 2012 NFL Draft, David DeCastro and Mike Adams, who are making their first appearance in Pittsburgh since the rookie mini-camp due to NFL rules regarding college scheduling.While these two rookies are extremely important to the offense and their progress will go a long way in solidifying the offensive line, another rookie in this same situation is being overlooked. In fact, rookie fourth round pick Alameda Ta'amu, the nose tackle out of the University of Washington, may be called on sooner than either of the offensive linemen.
Some fans may not see it that way considering the pedigree of DeCastro, a top ten talent that somehow fell to the Steelers, but one look at the positional depth may say otherwise. With nose tackle Casey Hampton returning from an ACL injury suffered in the playoff loss to the Broncos, there is no guarantee that he will be ready for the season opener. Yes, the team is optimistic, but injury recovery can be tricky and no one knows for sure.
If Hampton is limited, the nose tackle position should fall to tackle Steve McClendon, who was solid in a back-up role in 2011. Yes, that transition to starter should be relatively seamless, but with the early season heat and humidity the team usually endures, a sound back up with an understanding of the defensive system is a must. Like DeCastro and Adams, Ta'amu has had the playbook and can learn terminology, but that does nothing to help build chemistry inside an already complex defensive unit.
Unlike some fans, the Steelers saw the importance in adding Ta'amu, by trading up in the draft to grab the 6-3, 348-pound nose tackle. He is a massive man, with a wide base and some solid athleticism and should be able to develop into a defensive weapon. It is just unfortunate that his development has been put on hold by a NFL rule that makes little sense.
Note: it has been reported on twitter that the Steelers signed long snapper Matt Katula today. The 29-year old long snapper from Wisconsin has seen time with the Baltimore Ravens, New England Patriots and Minnesota Vikings over his career. In signing him, the team would have to make a corresponding move, although no moves have been officially announced by the organization.

We raised $10,000 for our neighbours this Christmas...
With the holiday season quickly approaching, we wanted to take the time to give back to the local Fijian villages where the majority of our beautiful island staff come from. Each year, Turtle Island donates essential supplies to the seven villages and one settlement in our local community on Christmas Day.
This year our goal was to raise a minimum of $10,000 worth of essential - and we did it with your help!
Here is how it worked - Our visitors were requested to simply click one of the social share buttons at the top of this page (you could share it as many times as you like) and each time someone shared this page, the Turtle Island Family donated $5 to the villages that make up our Tikina (Fijian for community)!
Discover Last Years Christmas Village Donation
Last year we had literally thousands of shares and as a result, Turtle Island donated over $10,000 worth of supplies which included everything that an island community would need to thrive. From flour and cooking supplies to fuel and tools for maintaining their homes and equipment, the holiday season is truly a time for giving and we look forward to giving back to our family, friends and neighbours this year.
We've stayed strongly committed to the community in which we live since we began operating as a resort 35 years ago creating hundreds of jobs and providing extensive medical and dental care for the local Yasawan community. The amount of medical work performed on Turtle Island resulted in the government posting a permanent doctor in the area to service the 4,000 people in our Tikina (Fijian for community).
Turtle Island also supports three primary schools as well as the ongoing scholarship program initiated with 50 students each year being financially supported in high schools on the mainland. Turtle Island is blessed with five acres of fertile gardens that produce enough excess to share with our neighbours. We also partner with local fishermen whom we purchase the majority of our seafood and fish from.
Donating essential supplies to our neighbours every Christmas is another way we can stay connected and we hope you'll assist us with 'sharing' the Fiji holiday spirit this year. Happy Holidays!
