I've been making a lot of short videos this year in lieu of written articles. If you miss the written pieces, let me know. And if you miss the written pieces, you'll probably appreciate today's quick download of thoughts from my "first pass" at prospects between June and December.
These are initial impressions. Some, if not many, will change as I see more tape and analyze workout results.
This is the most fun I've had studying quarterbacks in a while and it has to do with the fact that his class has a lot of players that displays flashes of NFL skills, but not a single one looks like the media or league's idea of a first-round, franchise prospect. We all know that doesn't mean much. Getting it right with a first-round QB amounts to a coin flip, although I'd say the league's general practice of developing quarterbacks is much like throwing kids into the deep end of the pond to teach them how to swim.
Kirk Cousins is developing into a solid NFL player, maybe even a solid NFL starter. Don't let anyone tell you that the process wasn't accidental. Cousins got to rotate on and off the bench, work at his game without franchise expectations thrown on him, and by the time he began demonstrating notable improvement on the field, most had abandoned any thought that he had a viable future as anything more than a streaky interception machine whose conceptual reach outpaced his physical grasp.
His development strikes me as a situation where his coaching staff and personnel team could claim, "Uh…we knew it all a long," or "We had a long-term plan for him."
I'm not buying it.
If the NFL was more patient with quarterback development, we wouldn't be listening to folks claim that there's a quarterback talent gap. The reality is that 32 NFL teams will be selecting promising long-term developmental passers like Carson Wentz, Christian Hackenberg, Connor Cook, Dak Prescott, Jacoby Brissett, Jared Goff, Kevin Hogan and Paxton Lynch and throwing them in the deep water.
Of those guys who I think might show some promise for swimming despite a real lack of lessons, the careers of Wentz, Hogan, Goff and Lynch might emerge from the waters still breathing, but they'll be criticized heavily for their flaws as swimmers. Given time, patience, and real development, I think all four can become quarterbacks that help organizations build playoff-caliber teams.
Hackenberg, Cook, and Brissett need time. If they get enrolled in the NFL's John Wayne School of Swimming Instruction For Boys I'd say the most likely to emerge alive are Brissett and Cook in that order.
But there are more quarterbacks in this class perfect for the slow cooker that doesn't exist on most NFL teams. It will be a disservice to make Trevone Boykin a receiver or running back. His athletic skill is average for a contributor at that position, but it's a plus for quarterback. Boykin has the accuracy, smarts, and pocket presence to develop into a quality NFL passer. If the Bills are happy with Tyrod Taylor, Boykin would be a nice developmental option for redundancy of style.
Vad Lee was an option quarterback at Georgia Tech who left for James Madison because he believed in his potential as an NFL passer and knew it wouldn't be developed in Atlanta. Lee's arm is impressive and the throws I've seen him make under pressure are plays no quarterback should be able to make. he has a real knack for hitting the intermediate throws from the right to the left in a tight pocket while off balance. I also like his touch and anticipation on the red zone plays I've studied.
If Lee can enhance his footwork and learn the timing passing game from center–and I think he can if there was a team willing to invest the time (unlikely) without forcing him into a must-win, starting role–I think he could surprise a lot of people.
There's one more player I want to list, but I not. I mentioned him on Twitter (maybe) a couple of times. A long-time coach on a high school football scene who has seen a lot of pro passers come from his region and has the ear of major college coaches compared this player to Drew Brees and said he'd be devastated if this player didn't create an NFL career with his skill, work ethic, and leadership.
I didn't know any of this or his college career story before I studied him this month. It was only after I came away impressed with his performances that I had to do more biographical research, because no one is talking about him. He's one of my three favorite players in this class.
Running Backs
One of those two other favorites is Kenneth Dixon. I can't tell you yet if I'm sold on Dixon having a future as a feature back, but I am sold on him developing into a valuable contributor and team favorite for his versatility. A player who fits that mold in recent years for an NFL team has been Pierre Thomas. Another has been James Starks. Neither of those are comparisons to Dixon other than potential role.
The polarized view of Derrick Henry is based a lot on misunderstandings people have about a player's fit in the scheme. Henry's best fit is a power running game that gives him a sizable downhill runway.
When Henry can generate this kind of momentum, he tears through the reach of defenders like a runaway dump truck splintering parking gates. He also has better feet than characterized. He cna make enough nifty moves to set up a crease or bait a defender waiting on the other side of the tunnel.
I've had a former scout and an analytics and scouting consultant with the league ask me about the Heisman runner. They were pleased that if, forced to play in more of a spread scheme that I thought Carolina would be a good fit for Henry. They had similar thoughts.
It's very possible that Henry could drop as far to the middle rounds and still offer high-round value. If my steakhouse doesn't have a need for a top-notch pastry chef I'm not hiring that chef even if he or she is genre-for-genre, the most talented culinary artist available. This is why I don't believe round value is synonymous with talent value.
I have a RSP Boiler Room in production on Derrick Henry. Stay tuned for more specifics on his game.
Maybe I'll change my mind on Devontae Booker, but I don't see an immediate impact starter on tape. He loves the corner store too much. I don't think there's a strong link between what his eyes see and how his feet process the information into action. He's not finishing runs with the type of pad level that helps NFL runners maximize their yardage in short-yardage situations or when he's not already running away from a defender.
Can Booker improve? You bet, but he might be overvalued if the NFL's view matches the phrasing of questions that I get from readers.
I can't wait to see Tyler Ervin at the Senior Bowl. The San Jose State runner is in that size-talent spectrum of Dexter Cluster. I don't know if practices will reveal anything more than what I continue to learn from the tape, but it's always fun to watch players live who have his burst and change of direction. I'm looking forward to seeing what he can do between the tackles in a basic system that he'll run in Mobile.
Do you know anything about Jhurrell Pressley? New Mexico's back has some serious burst and, unlike Ervin, the size to open some eyes. If Pressley can display Ervin's decision-making, he could make a living on Sunday.
There are folks who will disagree with me on Dwayne Washington's NFL potential, considering that he didn't even start this year at the University of Washington. I don't care, he's strong, fast, and he shows enough skill that I think the right fit and a good mindset could be the difference between him bouncing around the league for work and having a brighter future than he did in Seattle.
I have performed two evaluations on Georgia's Keith Marshall–one pre-injury, one post-injury. If Marshall is completely healthy by NFL training camp and looks like the "Gur-shall" back who many considered the better of the backfield pairing with Todd Gurley, he's the best back in this class.
If Marshall is the player I saw against Penn State, he's still a quality prospect but I have questions about his change of direction, burst, and balance against contact not coming straight at him. I anticipate that some of these questions will be answered as I study more games from this season. Even so, his participation has been limited this year so it's fun challenge ahead.
Frank Gore and Jamal Lewis are two excellent runners who looked like a fraction of themselves during their final seasons at Miami and Tennessee. It's possible Marshall has that kind of recovery trajectory. T.A. McClendon was a different story at N.C. State.
I wish Toledo's Kareem Hunt had Kelvin Taylor's burst. I wish Taylor had Alex Collins' patience and maturity between the tackles. I wish Collins could pass protect with the technique and ferocity of Arizona runner Jared Baker. I wish Baker had the strength and balance to take on all shapes and sizes of defender like Ezekiel Elliott.
And despite the fact that he'll make ill-advised cutbacks and Ohio State's line opens some canyons against five and six-man fronts, I have a feeling I'll wish most running backs in this draft had the skills of Elliott.
Wide Receiver
If there was a code word for "fade route" named after a receiver, I'd call it "Devin Lucien." The Arizona State receiver is nearly automatic on these routes. The UCLA transfer and his quarterback are locked in with this style of pattern.
Two UCLA receivers that I think will carve out NFL careers are Jordan Payton and Devin Fuller. I'd be surprised if Payton weighs 212 pounds. He looks like he's 225-230 pounds and a lot of it has to do with how comfortable he is in the physical aspects of the receiving game.
Fuller has skills to build on, the speed to win down field and the versatility to earn a role on special teams. I don't know for sure if he has the same palette of skills as Nate Washington, but the journeyman receiver who plays well enough to endear himself to a quarterback where ever he goes, comes to mind when I see Fuller's game.
With more colleges spreading the field, there are more slot receivers worth watching. Casey Martin of Southern Mississippi finds the open zone and makes difficult adjustments to off-target throws. He has a habit with his route running that I hate, but I think it's easy to eliminate with a little practice and more technique added to his game.
Jaydon Mickens has potential to win against zone and man coverage in the NFL. He's a pinball after the catch. If Mickens is a pinball, then Jakeem Grant is pinball operated by a joystick with a master video game player doing the work. These two players, despite weighing less than 180 pounds, have the skills to at last earn a cup of coffee as return specialists.
Daniel Braverman might be the best all-around slot prospect of this bunch. He also has the best vertical game of the four.
Will Fuller is a passive catcher of the football. I'll be providing video evidence and explaining why passive catch techniques are correctable, but they limit a player's game on the perimeter, in tight coverage, and in the red zone.
There's a lot of love for Corey Coleman and much of it is well-deserved. But watch the Oklahoma State game and you'll see a player who had difficulty against physical coverage. It could be one bad game, but it's worth noting.
Sterling Shepard is a fave of mine. If you saw my short video tutorial on vertical routes with Shepard as the teacher, you get a glimpse as to why. He's a tough, smart, versatile football player. I always want those guys on my team.
Rashawn Scott hasn't had the career that his talent was capable of fulfilling, but if there's a receiver to follow in Allen Hurns' footsteps as a surprise NFL starter with an unheralded college career, Scott is one of my nominees. I like how he wins the ball and the intelligence he displays as a runner. The biggest question might be whether he has the maturity to handle the profession of football player–and I'm speculating about this point.
Two players I haven't seen enough to supply more glowing opinions are Montana's Jamaal Jones and Tajae Sharpe. I like what they do around the ball, but there's a lot more to playing the position to set that up where I think the jury is still out for me as I work through the evaluation process.
I'm thankful Cincinnati's Chris Moore will be in Mobile. His scheme doesn't ask him to do enough to deliver as strong of an evaluation as I can perform on most of his peers.
Toledo's Alonzo Russell frustrates me. I think he relies too much on his physical skills and he has moments where he should be slapping himself in the forehead for what he did or didn't do.
Tulsa's Keyarris Garrett and Mississippi State's De'Runnya Wilson have greater promise than the grades I've currently assigned them after limited exposures to their games. I won't be surprised if their statuses rise as I see them do more things on the field. Both are big, physical, display hand-eye coordination, and illustrate smarts on the field for their specific roles.
Tight End
After I told a scout that I like Henry Krieger-Coble, he told me that the Iowa staff likes him, too. He might not be a physical stud who offers a passing game a mismatch down field, but if you need a tough catch in the short zone, a run blocker and pass protector with technique and grit, and a guy who does the unsung dirty work, he's on your short list. If he's not over-matched physically, and I don't think he is, I think he'll have a long career in the league even if fantasy players won't always be among his admirers.
Holden Huff of Boise State is a better blocker than I expected. Not as good as Krieger-Coble, but he's another prospect I admire more as a football player than a one-dimensional fantasy option. I like how well he closes the gap between himself and his opponent in the run game. He doesn't overextend his frame and lose leverage as often as many tight ends that I've seen thus far. The biggest issue might be his size. Huff is listed in some outlets as 226 pounds.
He didn't appear 226 in late November of this year. He didn't appear 236, which was another recent listing of his weight. Huff appeared closer to 246 pounds. If my State Fair Weight Guessing prowess is on-point, Huff could be an underrated option for NFL teams seeking a special-teamer or future No.2-No.3 tight end with developmental upside.
Another undersized player is Cal's Stephen Anderson and he is an option that fantasy hobbyists should get familiar with. Anderson plays the "Y" in Cal's offense (think Aaron Hernandez's role in New England, which was the "F" or flex role and Anderson might fit that bill in other schemes) and see a player with strength and fluid athletic ability. He plays like a large receiver, but does he have the speed of a large receiver? If he physically gets caught in NFL no-man's land, he be a niche player at best or staring in another league. I'm intrigued, but cautiously so.
Jake McGee isn't a top-shelf athlete and there's work to address as a blocker, but he can roll his hips into contact, he can sustain contact and turn edge defenders, and he's quick enough to get yards after the catch. He's a fluid receiver. I'm looking forward to seeing more of him in Mobile.

The principle of convection says that warm air always rises, and cool air always falls. Actually the principle extends to any fluid, but that's a subject for another day. For now, let's talk about air.
When air warms up, it expands. As it expands, it becomes less dense in relation to the cooler air around it. And because it's less dense, it tends to "float," that is, to rise. The most dramatic example of this phenomenon is a hot air balloon, which works because the burner heats the air up inside the balloon so that it becomes so light it floats in relation to the other air of the atmosphere. It is so light, in fact, that it floats even though it's carrying a basket and one or more passengers with it.
When air eventually cools in relation to the air around it, the some principle says that it will fall, and the cycle will repeat itself.
Designing buildings that work is all about using the principles of convection so we're not fighting against them but rather are using them to our advantage.

The Elkton potato variety was developed and released as a variety suitable for processing into potato chips from warm temperature growing areas. Potatoes are a cool season crop.
The number one potato chipping variety, the Atlantic, is susceptible to internal heat necrosis when grown in warm temperature environments such as the southeast. Internal heat necrosis is a physiological disorder of tubers characterized by dark brown patches of necrotic tissue in the tuber flesh. Tuber loads are sampled prior to going into the processing plant holding area, and if more than 5% of the tubers have internal defects, processors will reject the entire load. Potato growers in the southeastern U.S. and other high temperature growing areas are at economic risk due to internal heat necrosis.
It is estimated that 11% of the southeastern acreage of the Atlantic is lost annually due to internal heat necrosis, although this has ranged from 0 to 40% depending on the year. Elkton is highly resistant to internal heat necrosis and produces larger yields than Atlantic when grown in warm temperature environments.
Elkton is highly resistant to internal heat necrosis and produces larger yields than Atlantic when grown in warm temperature environments.
Potato growers in the southeastern U.S. are the prime recipients of the Elkton potato. In order to provide these farmers with planting material, the laboratory entered into a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with Daniel Corey Farms, which provided funds, expertise, facilities and labor to produce disease-free planting material for large-scale evaluation and eventual commercial sales. In 2014, Daniel Corey Farms received a license to provide certified (i.e., disease-free) planting material to growers for commercial production. Seed was sold to potato growers in California, Texas, Missouri, Florida and North Carolina, and these growers subsequently sold their potato crop to chip processors.
The subsequent harvest from those growers was processed into potato chips. Approximately 18,300 acres of potatoes are grown in Florida for the chip processing industry. On a yield basis alone, Elkton will generate approximately $651 more per acre than Atlantic in the state.

There is only one way I can think of to start off my initial thoughts about cycling in the Netherlands: wow. We can read as much as we want and look at countless pictures of the bike infrastructure in the Netherlands, but nothing compares to actually getting to use it. Cyclists are clearly the highest ranking user of the transportation system here. They are prioritized at almost every place possible. A good portion of the time were cycling to and from Deltaworks yesterday and around Delft today we used separated cycle tracks. Most of the time cyclists were even prioritized where the cycle tracks made intersections with roadways. Cars usually had to yield to us, but when they didn't - when we had to yield - it was very clearly marked. Also the intersections were raised for the cars to slow them down and alert them to the presence of the cycle track. We also used a lot of bike lanes throughout Delft. I was much more comfortable biking in these bike lanes than the ones I've used in the states. They were wider, more clearly marked (especially in intersections) and most importantly, drivers knew how to drive around the cyclists using them. One of my favorite stops on the Delft bike tour was the advisory bike lanes. Watching the bikes and cars interact in those spaces was incredible. Everyone knew where they were supposed to be and how to safely move around each other. Another great feature of the infrastructure here is all the bike parking available. There are 7,500 bike parking spots in bike garages in the train station alone. When we tried to use the parking, it was full! To me this speaks volumes about the quality of Dutch cycling infrastructure.
I think the thing I most liked about what I have seen so far is how clear the roadway is marked. All the bike spaces, be it a cycle track or bike lane, are marked in red. This uniformity leaves no question where cyclists should be - even through some more questionable situations. One place where I think the Netherlands excels is in intersection markings. Even through large, multilane intersections I always knew where I was supposed to be and when I was supposed to cross – which I don't think I could ever say about the United States. The combination of the red lanes with the white outlines and specific bike signals made it easy to navigate. One new thing I experienced was biking a roundabout. The two types of roundabouts we used today were with protected cycle space and one with shared lanes. The protected one was designed so that cars entering and exiting had two different decision points – one to yield to cyclists and one to yield to cars already in the roundabout. The first protected roundabout we biked through also had a two way cycle track, which allowed cyclists to minimize the time they had to spend in the roundabout. The drivers respected this – even when all 19 of us literally took up the entire roundabout trapping cars inside. The shared land roundabout was one of the only instances today where I was a bit confused on how I was supposed to navigate it. The bike lane that led up the roundabout dropped out and we were mixed in with the cars to go around it. We all made it out the other side- but I'm still not sure if I rode through it correctly.
Overall, I've loved the experience of cycling in the Netherlands so far! The flat terrain, the infrastructure and the fact that everyone knew how they were supposed to be navigating made for a very pleasant experience. All the pedestrians, cyclists and cars interacted seamlessly, which is something I haven't seen in the US. There are some topographical and cultural challenges to implementing a system like this in the US. All the hills, urban sprawl, and precedence of personal vehicle use will make it hard to develop a transportation network like the Dutch one. But despite these challenges, small changes are starting to be made in the US to make the street more bike friendly. We are on the right (cycle) track!

Woolworth's building to get a makeover
Cadillac Fairview plans to restore 2 Queen St. W. to its original 1885 brick façade and add three more storeys.
Cadillac Fairview has unveiled plans for a makeover of 2 Queen St. W., a project that will restore the former Woolworth building's original 1885 brick façade and open a "gateway" from Yonge St. to the south entrance of the Eaton Centre.
The Toronto-based commercial property developer said the expansion and restoration project aims to enhance retail and office space — and will add three more storeys to the building, including a top floor designed to accommodate a restaurant with an outdoor terrace. It said the project will improve the quality and utility of the property "while preserving its unique architectural features."
Overall, the redevelopment comprises 23,150 square feet of office space and 22,011 square feet of retail and storage space, along with mechanical, structural and electrical upgrades. The value of the project was not disclosed.
The façade of the building on the northwest corner of Yonge and Queen Sts. had been obscured for more than 50 years, with the exterior covered in white aluminum after several renovations. Since 1895, the site had been occupied by the old Jamieson Clothiers store but was best known as the building Woolworth's anchored for 65 years.
"But after the five-and-dime moved out in 1980, the worn-out structure became a succession of no-name retail outlets and seemed headed for oblivion. It was one of the shabbiest downtown addresses," Star columnist Chris Hume wrote in 1987.
"The outside was in equally bad shape. The bricks suffered serious damage in the '40s as a result of being sandblasted. To make matters worse, all the cornices and protuberances were cut off when aluminum siding was added."
In 1985, the building was bought by Guarantee Realty Trust and Karas Corp. which decided to develop it. The co-owners hired the Toronto architectural firm of Alter & Ireland to renovate.
The building was restored in the 1990s and replaced with the Tower Records Superstore, while more recently a sports store and gym have served as the main tenants as the site housed retail and office space.
Cadillac Fairview said the undertaking complements its continuing investment in its owned and managed Eaton Centre complex, which underwent a two-year, $120 million renovation started in 2010.
The company, controlled by the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan, in 2017 completed installation of a new Queen St. pedestrian bridge connecting the Eaton Centre to Hudson's Bay. It has also partnered with BMO to develop an "urban campus" that will take over a portion of Sears Canada's former office space at the downtown mall and house 3,500 high-tech employees when it opens in 2021.
Rory MacLeod, development vice-president, said the company "is proud to be restoring 2 Queen St. W. to its original glory. Cadillac Fairview is absolutely committed to our responsible investment in the heritage properties under our stewardship," he added.

It's time for another amazing guest! Carly Black is an eighth-grade language arts teacher in Ashland, Ohio. She and her teacher husband also have toddlers at home, so she's well-versed in handling kids of various ages!
Carly is here to share some classroom struggles and some projects that she's tried. We can all be guilty of finding cool, engaging projects and forgetting to make sure they align with our purposes, and that's what Carly is struggling with.
Over the course of the episode, Carly and I work through coaching questions to help her discover something very interesting about her assessments, and possibilities for improvement going forward.
After Carly describes her struggle with the choice board part of her lesson, I'll push her to figure out answers for herself. For example, she muses that it might have worked better to leave some choices blank so that kids (who might know about new technology) could figure out ideas of their own.
Don't miss this conversation! Even if the specifics of Carly's struggles don't quite apply to you, the process we'll go through is one you can apply to your own lessons to figure out how to make them even better.
In This Episode:
[00:28] - Kasey welcomes listeners back to the Shake Up Learning Show, and introduces today's guest!
[02:16] - Before digging into the meat of the episode, Kasey gives a shoutout to Sarah Ackerman-Hale, who shared an amazing project with all of us in the Shake Up Learning Community on Facebook.
[04:26] - Today's question comes from Sarah Fromhold, who wants to know how to integrate the dynamic learning framework within the parameters of the reading/writing and math workshop model.
[08:10] - Kasey explains how her on-air coaching episodes work.
[09:02] - We hear a bit about a typical day in Carly's classroom, as well as why this year was particularly challenging.
[11:51] - Carly talks about the kind of technology and devices that she has available to her students in her classroom.
[14:46] - What's going well in Carly's classroom this year? And what tools does she use for her class blogs?
[18:11] - Carly tells listeners about a lesson that she wants help in revamping to reach all the students in her classroom.
[22:25] - Kasey responds to the points that Carly has been making.
[23:37] - On a scale of 1-10, how would Carly rank the choice-board part of the activity that she has been talking about? What would she have to change to move it closer to a 10?
[25:52] - Carly muses that maybe she should have left some choices blank to let the kids come up with ideas.
[27:47] - What would Carly's students be doing differently if her project were a 10? How would she be able to measure the change in her students?
[29:32] - We learn about how Carly made her initial assessment at the beginning of the year, and what would have brought the assessment closer to a 10.
[32:02] - Did Carly's original assessment align to the learning goals that she had for her students?
[34:44] - Now that Carly has explored the answers to Kasey's questions, she talks about what her next steps would be in reshaping and redesigning this lesson.
[38:19] - Kasey responds to what Carly has been saying, and shares her appreciation for Carly's willingness to participate in the conversation and exercises.
[41:37] - How can other teachers get in touch with Carly? She suggests visiting her site Teach Mom Repeat or visiting her on Twitter or on Instagram.
[44:19] - Carly shares her biggest piece of advice for teachers: talk to each other!
[44:51] - Kasey takes a moment to share her thoughts on the conversation with Carly.
[46:51] - Here's the podcast question of the week: "How do you ensure that your assessment strategy is aligned to your end goal?" Post your answers in the Shake Up Learning Community on Facebook, or on your favorite social media platform with the #ShakeUpLearning hashtag.

Become a Google Certified Trainer Online Course

Clayton, NCMaster Plan
If there's one thing we've learned about designing community hospitals over the last quarter century, it is that change is inevitable. Flexibility, both in design and attitude, is critical. That's why everything about our work with Johnston Health speaks to adaptability, from the location of their outpatient facility to the master plan itself. The chassis-like design constructed in 2009 to support Johnston Health's Phase 1 outpatient wing on the Clayton campus, efficiently accommodates Phase 2, a 104,188 square-foot 50-bed inpatient tower, completed in 2015. Support services added as a result of the new inpatient wing include a kitchen and new dining area, classrooms that double as community space and a gift shop. A new women's center offers larger-than-normal, spa-like labor rooms, including a C-section room strategically located adjacent to the existing surgery area.
Jason Putnal shares a story about AL!VE, a unique experiential health and wellness concept, brings our vision of improving the human experience to life!Read More
"Without JJCA's help, I don't believe we would have been successful in obtaining the HUD-242 financing that not only allowed us to complete the third phase of our existing space plan, but gave us the opportunity to build a second hospital in a neighboring community."

Don't we all have those weeks sometimes? I need to kick myself in the butt nearly every single day.ReplyDelete
Going on bike rides inspires me.
1. being moved to tears by a performance.
2. my father, he is the single hardest working man i have ever met in my life.
3. my mother, she gave me life, she's always the voice in the back of my head pushing me forward when i am sure i can't go on.
4. random acts of kindness. yesterday i saw a stranger helping a sweet old lady carry her groceries up the the front stoop in the rain. it made me smile and gave me hope for this world.
5. the change of seasons. life goes on. just when it seems bare and dark, a single green bud pops through, and everything begins again.
6. singing. anytime. anywhere.
7. the smell of a green room. if you are in the "biz" in any sense, you totally know what i mean. it is full of history from the actors who have gone before.
8. my little sister. she continues to surprise me daily. i thought she would be a baby forever... i can't begin explain the feeling of watching her grow.
9. true love. the kind that lasts for sixty years. the kind they write books about, that they then turn into movies. but not the movies, the real life love is the true inspiration. the un-hollywood-ized true love.
10. my jake, without him i would be lost. his eternal optimism and work ethic inspires me daily. his love of life and his love for me keep me chugging along even through the hard times. he is my soul mate. my heart.

I apologise for being woefully slow at updating. Sure, I have been busy, but I haven't managed to convince Tim of my theory that since turning 22, approximately 25 minutes out of every hour just vanishes. Even now, I should be doing useful things, like washing my hair and packing for my business trip (the airport shuttle arrives at 8.00am tomorrow), re-editing my essay and maybe getting to sleep an hour ago.
A sign of my commitment: The promised peanut butter popcorn.
Finally - what is that substance on our mossy, damp patio? Could it be...sunshine? Okay, so it rained all day today, but this patch o' concrete literally hasn't seen the sun since about February.

It appears that Northwest is trying to find its way out of bankruptcy with a Compass. Northwest's new commuter carrier, Compass Airlines, is scheduled to begin flying in June, according to a report today from ATW Media Group.
Early on, Compass will have a limited role. USA Today notes that in the beginning, only a pair of daily flights between Minneapolis and near Washington, D.C. (Dulles) are projected. However, Northwest has bigger plans for the airline, predicting that instead of the 50 seats on one plane, Compass will have about 36 planes, at least some of which would be 76-seaters.
Overall, I suppose this is good news for Northwest, in that it's trying to re-grow its business after such hard times. It will be interesting to see if adding more capacity in the form of a commuter airline will help Northwest, or if the new jets will bring more trouble for the company.

- Updated: August 30, 2019
Mike Taylor felt the buzz and peeked behind the curtain of big-time basketball from a very young age.
His Dad, Dick, was one of those coaches who always found a landing spot, his insights valued from one stop and into the next: working with Bob Knight at West Point. Creighton University. At the New York Knicks, where he was an assistant in a spell in the NBA. And eventually to Clarion University where his young family were able to settle for a time.
His son would always find a way to be sat near the bench, eating popcorn, taking in the twists and turns. Rebounding for the players at practice and on game nights. "My dad would take me on scouting trips with him and ride the bus to some games every once in a while,†Mike recounts.
"So there's just really generally a love for basketball, love for the game. Love for sports in general – we played a lot of baseball, played a lot of football growing up. So sports were important in our house. And, you know, I just kind of always grew up, like, I want to be a coach, like my dad.â€
He has stayed in the family business since getting his start back at Clarion, beginning a lengthy trip that will place him on the global stage this weekend when he leads Poland into the opening round of the 2019 FIBA World Cup in China.
Arguably the most significant opportunity in a career that passed through the UK with Essex Leopards before heading to Germany, then the NBA G-League and then back to Deutschland again where he now also doubles up as the boss at newly-promoted Hamburg Towers in the BBL.
Celebrating his 47th birthday this week, and a husband and father himself, he still turns to Dick for advice when they confer regularly by Skype. Bonds run deep. "You know, for some people, father and son means different things,†he says. "It might be a fishing trip, might be a camping trip or hiking trip. For us, it was 'Hey, let's go to the gym. Let's work on our basketball practice'.
"And so, he spent a lot of time with me talking basketball, talking, coaching X's and O's, managing people managing players. So it's something it always has been interesting to me and, and I feel like, you know, my dad's my greatest resource in coaching.â€
Players like Bob McAdoo and Spencer Haywood would hand him mix tapes, stars of the hardwood opening his eyes to this fantastical world. Relationships on and off the court that would endure. What attracted him towards coaching, he hints. The people, the enjoyment and the memories carved.
It's why when he was first approached about taking over Poland in 2014, the concept struck an appealing nerve. His time with Leopards was beset by financial concerns as the lavish era of the club's stint in London faded, even though the challenge and the coaching camaraderie he found in the BBL from peers like Nick Nurse and Chris Finch was one he savoured greatly.
A lengthy spell with Ulm had allowed him to build a philosophy and fully realise his skills. Then the D-League (as was), and the NBA system in which player development can often go against the instinct to win now, with all the internal politics tacked on the side.
The Poles needed direction and he could take it as a full-time gig with a remit to provide input into the country's system. His wife Alice joined him there. He became embedded. It felt like a home from home.
"We loved the time that we lived in Warsaw, you know, we've made friends for life in the country,†he says. "You know, I have tremendous connection with the Federation, the coaches, the players, everybody here involved with our organisation, we've got a history now.
"Now, there's kind of a tradition, when we're at training camp, we walk up a mountain as coaching staff on the day off. It's the fifth year we've done it.
"The players, you're there as their families grow, there's new-born baby and the family grows, and a player goes from playing in Poland to playing internationally, player gets married. So there's really a strong connection that you develop when you're around people, and you work hard to develop those relationships.â€
Help MVP create more great content – become a site supporter now.
This is how teams like Poland – who will be without their best-known player Marcin Gortat, now retired from international hoops – will hope to punch above their weight, especially in a first-round group in Beijing that includes hosts China, Venezuela and Cote D'Ivoire.
All eyes, as ever, will be on the USA and their collection of the 12-best available recruits from among a talent pool whose greatest names opted to pass en masse on the World Cup.
That creates opportunities for every team with an eye on dethroning the champions. Sure, they have brought 12 talented NBA performers to this party.
But Taylor notes: "I think the hard part for Team USA… now you've got several guys coming over here, who maybe don't have a great understanding of the European game or the international game.
"And the main point is, in the NBA, there's many possessions in a game. And I think there's more value for every possession in the European game.
"Maybe you have 100 plus possessions in an NBA game, 48 minutes. Maybe you have 60, 65, 70 possessions in a FIBA game. So the ability to play both ends of the floor, the ability to value every possession, this is where it all starts with these players, you know
"And then I think the depth of the system that the Team USA can get to it's one thing if you rely on talent, you know, when you have elite talent, that's great. But to get to that depth of system, this is where national teams I think have a big advantage.
"The time spent playing together, the time the experiences, good things, bad things, everything that teams have learned from, this is where the challenge comes in for the USA.â€
For every possible opponent, those deficits also shift the mind-set. The fear factor, omnipresent ever since the Dream Team landed in Barcelona in 1992, has been reduced.
Australia's win over Gregg Popovich's side last weekend in a friendly in Melbourne underlined this World Cup offers opportunity. Perhaps even more than at the 2004 Olympics or 2006 world championships where poor chemistry cost the Americans a crown.
This time, it can come down to quality of basketball, pure and simple, with the likes of LeBron James and James Harden saving their energies, presumably, for the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo.
If they had been there, Taylor acknowledges, "you're going into that game thinking this is going to be tough, we're going to go at them. And we're going to try. But OK, let's be realistic with ourselves here.
"But if those guys aren't there, then you start to think differently. It's like, you know what, 'we've been together for X amount of years, we were ready, let's get these guys, let's see if we can do it.' So I think the whole mentality changes. And this is something that they'll have to be to be ready for.â€
Their rivals too. Seven spots are up for grabs in Tokyo from this World Cup, plus spots in the final qualification tournament which will featuring 16 of the best of the rest.
A target for Poland who are returning to the global stage after a long absence. Getting into the second round by coming top-two in their pool is the initial mission.
Beyond that, advancing into the quarter-finals would be the stuff of dreams, as would one particular match-up that Taylor can only hope turns up.
"2015 when I was travelling around to these different places, I went to Duke and Coach K was still the Dream Team (USA) coach at the time.
"And I had you know, my dad coached with Bob Knight at Army and Coach K was on the team, you know, at West Point at the time. So I worked summer basketball camp at Duke for several years, in the in the early 2000s.
"I went there and got a chance to watch them practice. And I was all proud, wearing my Polish national team polo. And I went to Coach K. He's like, 'Hey, how are you doing? Where are you now?'
And I'm like 'I coach the Polish national team. Coach K … It's my dream that Poland plays Team USA.'
"And he just looked at me and said 'You better play well.' So you know, it was one of those funny moments that kind of puts things in perspective. That, OK, you keep you keep bringing that challenge, we're going to be ready.
"Team USA going to be ready. They're pros. They're talented, they're great. But that's the beauty of the game, you know. And that's the beauty of the World Cup teams from all over the world coming together.
"And I'm really proud that I will have the opportunity and hopefully we can do something great with our chances.â€

The appeal of renting equipment and renting for longer terms is increasing among contractors because of "the uncertainty created by the economic downturn of the last few years and an unwillingness to commit to purchases, given the work situation," says Sidney Sexson, senior vice president at Wells Fargo Equipment Finance, Tempe, Ariz.
Scarce new development activity amid tight lending conditions has ratcheted up the rivalry among job-hungry contractors, leaving more firms vying for fewer projects. The increased competition has narrowed already slim bidding margins, forcing contractors to eke out a financial edge wherever possible. For some firms, that has meant renting rather than buying. Equipment rentals allow contractors to shift downtime risk while trimming expenses, including licensing, insurance, taxes and debt, among others.
The U.S. rental business grew an estimated 18.6% in 2011, according to the Associated Equipment Manufacturers, a Milwaukee-based industry trade group. This year, North American equipment rentals are expected to generate $33.5 billion in revenue, an increase of 6.9% and more than three times the expected growth rate of the U.S. economy, says the Moline, Ill.-based American Rental Association. Rentals offer a flexible, safe solution as the economy makes a jagged recovery.

Today I've got another Irish treat for you! This is Valerie & Trey's intimate Cliffs of Moher elopement captured by Amare Stories and Mrs Redhead.
A Backyard Elopement At the Cliffs of Moher
Cliffs of Moher Elopement Clare from Amare Stories on Vimeo.
Valerie and Trey met on October 5, 2012 as two law school students at Florida State University College of Law. They started out as friends and teammates on an intramural flag football team. Surprisingly, Valerie and Trey grew up in towns located about 45 minutes away from one another. After a few months it was inevitable that they would become more than friends. Valerie admired Trey's nonchalant approach to everything – including school – and his ability to laugh through any situation. Trey valued Valerie's independence, loyalty, and her cooking skills. Almost overnight, the two of them formed a bond that they knew would last forever. They enjoyed playing sports with mutual friends, visiting home to their families, and beginning to travel the world together.
In December of 2016, Trey brought Valerie to a beautiful park decorated with Christmas lights before they headed to their favorite restaurant in Thomasville, GA. In true Valerie-fashion, she was tired, hungry, and grouchy and didn't feel like walking around the park that evening. Trey was nervous and sweating bullets, even though it was quite cold outside. As Valerie tried to make her escape to the car, Trey literally had to drag her back into the park so that he could drop down on one knee and ask her to spend the rest of their lives together. Of course, she quickly said yes and asked where the champagne was! Knowing her all too well, Trey opened the trunk of his car to reveal the chilled champagne and flutes he had brought for them to celebrate with. They walked around to see the lights one more time, this time in much happier spirits, holding hands as fiancé and fiancé.
Not too long after, Valerie and Trey began wedding planning. They knew they wanted their special day to take place in October of 2017 and began seeking out venues and getting estimates from vendors. Planning a wedding with some family overseas, a job transition, and limited financial resources began to seem like more of a daunting task than a day of celebration. Together Valerie and Trey decided that if their wedding day were to be about them and their decision to spend the rest of their lives together, they needed to refocus their wedding planning efforts. They took their budget and decided that planning an unforgettable trip for the two of them was where their dollars would be best spent. The hardest part was keeping the secret from all of their other loved ones!
Being overseas made choosing vendors especially difficult. We put a lot of faith into internet searches and hoping the photographer and videographer we selected would work out. Both Olga and Ronan put our minds at ease by communicating via email and even Skype.
We wanted to intimately celebrate the decision we were making to spend our lives together with just the two of us.
Put yourselves first when wedding planning. Don't be afraid to do something untraditional!
After spending time in Ireland we ventured to Barcelona, Santorini, and Paris! It was a magical trip that we are so fortunate to have experienced. We even returned to Yellow Cottage for our first anniversary!
