I remember the day we learned our daughter and son-in-law were expecting their first baby. We were living in Dallas, and they were miles away in Florida. We were thrilled, and at the same time, my heart ached to be closer to them. It wasn't too far into her pregnancy when we found out there could be some major complications. I flew out to be with her for additional tests and a consultation with a specialist in the field.
As I sat beside my daughter, I was overwhelmed with a feeling of helplessness. As much as I wanted to fix everything as her mother, we were in a situation where we had no control. We knew God is trustworthy. We knew He is faithful. We knew He was bringing about a greater work that just wasn't realized…yet. Regardless of the outcome of this pregnancy, a healthy baby or a baby with many challenges, we had to choose to trust the faithfulness of our great God. This was a struggle. We were afraid, yet in that fear, God provided a peace that passes all understanding. Our faith was not always great, but our faith is always in a great God.
God's faithfulness answers our impossible situations. Sarah knew this. After all, she was placed in several situations that might have been considered impossible. She fixed her eyes upon a God who had made a promise. She knew He was trustworthy. She knew He was faithful.
In Genesis 12:10-20, we see how God protected Sarah when Abraham handed her over to Pharaoh's house. Sarah's submission to her husband, even in his dishonesty and sin, placed her under the protection of God. In fact, Peter tells us that Sarah, and other women of the Old Testament, had learned to place their "hope in God" alone, no matter the circumstances in which they found themselves (1 Peter 3:5-6). Sarah had learned not to fear what man could do to her, but rather to place her fear and, more importantly, her faith in her great God, entrusting herself to Him.
Sarah left a legacy by demonstrating her trust and faith in God, not that her faith was always great, but her faith always rested in a great God. She fully trusted in God for what was far greater than her own abilities. The most exciting promise was the birth of the Messiah through Sarah's bloodline!
Is there a time you recognize when God demonstrated His faithfulness to you despite an impossible situation?
What type of legacy do you desire to leave your children and family?
Share with your children that God is all powerful and in control of all things. Talk about a time when your family needed help. Share how the help you received was provided by God. God takes care of all our needs. Remind your children that we can pray to God to help meet our needs. Lead your children in a prayer for God's provision today.
Identify a situation in your life where only God can provide the answer. Trust Him. He is faithful.

Maintaining your home is extremely important to any homebuyer. Your home is one of your biggest investments, so you'll want to take care of it. Here are ten tips for maintaining your new home!
Changing the air filters in your central heat and air unit should be done often, particularly when the unit is being used during peak months. Don't go longer than thirty days without changing the air filters to keep your unit working properly.
Your refrigerator deserves some attention every once in while. Keeping your refrigerator clean and in tip-top shape will keep it functioning efficiently and for a longer time. Pay close attention to the door seals of your refrigerator. It should always be sealed tight, so it keeps your food cool and uses less energy. To test if your seal is still in good shape, take a dollar bill and close the door on the bill. Then, try to pull the dollar bill out from the door. If the dollar bill doesn't budge, your seals are in good shape. However, if there isn't any resistance, it's time to replace the seal. Also, don't forget to vacuum the refrigerator coils along the back of the appliance occasionally!
Gutters are commonly overlooked in most households. Don't forget to maintain your gutters so they work properly all year long. It's important that your gutters are in good condition so that they keep the water off your roof. If clogged, rainwater has nowhere to go. Take it upon yourself to clean your gutters a few times a year!
The entryways into your home have the most traffic, which means they track in a lot of dirt and mud. To protect your entryways and the rest of your home from unwanted dirt, use welcome mats. This will give your guests something to wipe their shoes off before entering your home.
Stay on top of your pets' behavior and find different ways to alleviate any issues. If your cats are clawing your furniture, buy a clawing pole. If you have a new puppy, make sure it is house-trained before letting he or she roam in carpeted areas. And if some accident does happen, make sure you clean up immediately!
Dryer vents should never be forgotten when it comes to maintaining your home. Every time you use your dryer, a little bit of lint will be added to the vent. Not only will this make your dryer less efficient at cooling down, but it is also dangerous. All the collected lint in the dryer vent can turn into a fire hazard. Every once in a while, remove the vent and clean out the lint and surrounding area.
Just like keeping track of your pets' behavior, you'll want to keep track of your kids' behavior has well. Keep any messy items, like crayons and markers, in a controlled area where you can supervise your kids while they are playing. This will keep them from accidentally drawing on the walls in important areas in the home. Also, make sure to set some ground rules that everyone should follow, like only eating at the kitchen table and no colored liquids near light-colored carpeting! This will keep your home clean and in great condition for a long time to come.
You should always change your batteries in all of your detectors twice a year. Instead of relying on the automatic beeping to tell you when to change the batteries, opt to set a date twice a year to change them. Or if you have trouble remembering, change the batteries when you change clocks for daylight savings time. Also, once the batteries are replaced, make sure to hold the test button down 15-20 seconds after changing so you will know if they battery is faulty or not!
If you have a fireplace in your home that you use, get it cleaned at least once a year. Dirt can easily build up and birds' nest and other objects can end up in your chimney, which can become a hazard. It's best to hire a chimney sweep for this job instead of doing it yourself!
Cleaning your house every week is great, but at least two times a year, you should try to deep clean your home. Go through every room in the house and clean everything thoroughly. Not only will you feel accomplished when you are finished, but you'll love the way your house looks and feels after a deep clean!

Today's recipe is a dessert: Poire belle Hélène is a beautiful looking treat made up of vanilla poached pears, served with a warm chocolate sauce, whipped cream (or vanilla ice cream) and toasted almonds. Need I say more? I personally love it. I think pear and chocolate, just like orange and chocolate, is a match made in heaven. What I love most in this dish is the balance of both flavours (the bitterness in the chocolate contrasts with the sweetness of the pear and cream/ice cream) and textures (the soft cream, the silky sauce, the crunch of the almonds and the sightly firm pears all balance out). Eating a spoonful of this dessert is a blissful experience. And, it is very easy to make. In no time (and with very little effort), you will have a very impressive dessert, perfect for any occasion! Enjoy!
How to make a classic French dessert: Poire Belle Helene.
Put the water into a saucepan, then stir in the sugar, lemon juice and vanilla pod. Bring to a simmer and heat gently until the sugar has dissolved.
In the meantime, carefully peel the pears but leave the stalks intact. Then slice off a thin little disc at the base of each pear so that they can sit upright.
Put the pears into the hot syrup in the saucepan and cover with a piece of baking paper, to make sure the pears are submerged. Simmer the pears in the syrup for 20 minutes, then, using a small skewer, test them to see if they are tender. If not, cook for a further 5 minutes and test again.
When the pears are cooked, leave them to cool in the syrup.
To make the sauce, put the chocolate and cream into a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water (make sure the base of the bowl doesn't touch the water). Stir constantly as the chocolate melts until the sauce is smooth and glossy.
To serve, drain the pears and serve them with the hot chocolate sauce, some vanilla ice cream or sweetened whipped cream and toasted sliced almonds on the top.
This would the perfect dessert for me, looks amazing.
As a very old almond person, I must comment that your ingredient list says to use "slivered almonds toasted". The photo show SLICED almonds toasted—which I believe would be better suited to the dish.


Cardiff boss Neil Warnock has been charged by the FA for his controversial comments about Premier League officials.
Referee Craig Pawson and his linesman failed to spot that Chelsea defender Cesar Azpilicueta was offside when he headed in a late equaliser before Ruben Loftus-Cheek netted a stoppage-time winner for a 2-1 victory in Wales last month.
Warnock called the officials 'the worst in the world' before giving another explosive interview to talkSPORT less than 24 hours later.
A 2-0 defeat at Manchester City followed for Cardiff, who are five points from safety with six games to go.
An FA statement said: "Neil Warnock has been charged with three breaches of FA Rule E3.
"It is further alleged that comments he made in a talkSPORT radio interview on 01 April 2019 constitute improper conduct and/or bring the game into disrepute.
Reports have claimed Warnock could step down as Cardiff manager regardless of which division they are in next season.
However, the 70-year-old insisted he owes it to the Bluebirds fans to stay on.
He said: "I just feel as long as Vincent [Cardiff owner Vincent Tan] wants me to stay, no matter what division we are in, I think I owe it to the fans to stay.
"I changed my mind in the last couple of months with the Emiliano [Sala] tragedy. It brought a lot home. In the cold light of day, I don't see anyone better to take over at this moment in time.
"I have never seen [my wife] Sharon enjoy a club like this. I've never heard fans chanting the name of a manager's wife before.

What's "Fracking 2.0?" Nick Hodge teases that "One Texas Company Is Sitting On 4.1 Billion Barrels Of 'Emission Free Oil'"
By Travis Johnson, Stock Gumshoe, July 17, 2017
Welcome back, me! I've been vacationing for a week or so, and I'm ready to dive back into the teaser swamps to see what little morsels we might find to discuss.
This one was an easy pick for the Thinkolator's first project of the week: Nick Hodge is pitching one of his newsletters, Wall Street's Underground Profits, by holding out the promise of an "emission free oil" — so what's the story?
Well, as he does indicate once you get a bit further along in his presentation, he's talking about uranium — which is, of course, not an "emission free oil"… but it's a catchy turn of phrase for their ad, and nuclear power is certainly the most promising large-scale base load power source that doesn't generate carbon emissions or air pollution.
So… what is the investment he's pitching for this "clean energy breakthrough"…. and what's the company that he thinks could turn a $10,000 investment in to $1,165,000? Let's check the clues and get you some answers… from the ad:
"Right now, a technology revolution is brewing in the most neglected corner of the energy industry. Insiders are calling it Fracking 2.0.
"Thanks to this once-in-a-lifetime breakthrough, a tiny company you've never heard of is now sitting on 4.1 billion barrels of "emission free" oil.
"That's equal to half the oil reserves of Mexico. It's nearly as much as Norway — and more than Vietnam, Egypt, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Yemen.
"With this fuel, you could generate 2.3 billion megawatt-hours of electricity.
"Enough to power a city the size of New York for 14.5 years."
And then on to the specific investment he's hinting at…
"The energy windfall I'm talking about isn't locked in the ground overseas. It doesn't belong to Russia or Syria or Iran. The entire resource is safe and secure in South Texas….
"… this clean-burning wonder fuel was pumped out of the ground very near the legendary Eagle Ford shale formation.
"But it's much more powerful than oil or natural gas.
"By weight, it has 10,000 times the energy potential of petroleum.
"It has 14,000 times the potential of coal.
"Now — thanks to Fracking 2.0…
"One company can suck it out of the ground for 50 cents on the dollar!"
And apparently this company, thanks to "Fracking 2.0", is ready to jump on the next (inevitable, they claim) super-cycle surge in uranium prices, because they can get their operations online for only $10 million (not hundreds of millions for building a mine). He describes that "Fracking 2.0" here:
"The process is called In Situ Recovery, or ISR for short.
"Instead of open-pit or underground mining, they pump a special water-based solution into the sandstone formation that contains the uranium with an injection well.
"It then circulates through the formation, oxidizing and dissolving the uranium, and gets pumped back up to a production well.
"The water is then pumped to an on-site facility where the solution is introduced to tanks containing tiny resin pellets. The uranium bonds to the resin via ion exchange.
"The pellets are then put on a truck and driven to a processing facility. There the uranium is stripped off the pellets, precipitated into a sort of uranium slurry. It's washed… then dried… and the final product is the same as if it had come from a giant uranium pit."
And apparently this is much cheaper than mining…
"… this company boasts production costs in the lowest quartile industry-wide — with a mere $21.77 cash cost of sale per pound….
"This company already has a fully licensed and permitted production facility with a 2-million-pound annual capacity. At $75 uranium — that's $150 million per year in revenue.
"That's several times what the entire company is trading for right now!"
So what's the stock? Thinkolator sez that this is the oft-teased Uranium Energy Corp (UEC), which has seemingly been the darling of lots of newsletter folks over the years, from Marin Katusa to Kent Moors to Frank Curzio.
UEC is run by Amir Adnani, a very promotional guy who also heads GoldMining (GOLD.V, the former Brazil Resources), and it is indeed an in-situ recovery company set up specifically to bide its time and wait for the next uranium supercycle. And the photos in the ad show a barrel of yellowcake between Nick Hodge and someone who looks unmistakably like Amir… so all of the clues match the company perfectly, including the 2 million pound capacity of their production facility and the $21.77 cash cost per pound…
…though, I should note, $150 million (the revenue number Hodge pulls out as an example) is NOT "several times what the entire company is trading for right now." UEC's current market cap is about $240 million, and has been above $150 million essentially since the election… though it was down as low as about $70 million in early 2016. So perhaps the ad is just using old text, I don't know.
UEC has been pitched as a natural beneficiary of the next uranium supercycle several times over the years — really, since things started to normalize a little bit after the Fukushima disaster (if that name doesn't ring a bell, that was the Japanese nuclear power plant that was destroyed in an Earthquake/Tsunami-fueled disaster in March, 2011, with massive fallout and the abrupt shutdown of essentially all of Japan's nuclear fleet). The most vociferous proponent of this has probably been Dr. Kent Moors, who aggressively pitched UEC in 2014 and 2015… though he switched to a different uranium company last year when he again pitched the inevitability of a surge in uranium prices.
All of those arguments about the resurgence of nuclear power and the need for higher uranium prices make good sense — and they're all roughly the same, whether it's Nick Hodge or Rick Rule or Kent Moors who's making the argument… here's how I sum it up:
We need nuclear power, it's the only way to generate baseload electrical power on the required scale without emissions.
Lots of new power plants are planned or under construction, particularly in India and China
Japan is restarting its nuclear fleet, slowly but surely.
Other opponents of nuclear power are generally coming to accept that it's required — even environmental activists, who realize this is the best solution for emissions and pollution protection.
Uranium prices are not high enough to justify building or expanding mines, so there has been little exploration or development, so when demand increases there will be insufficient supply to meet it (that's the meaning of the "low prices are the cure for low prices" saying often used for commodities)
The US is dependent on foreign sources of uranium, chiefly from Canada and Kazakhstan (which is essentially the "Saudi Arabia of uranium"), which is strategically unpalatable.
To that list we could have added the end of nuclear warhead recycling, which is a major secondary source of uranium — but that was the catalyst that was supposed to drive uranium prices higher back in 2011, when the "megatonnes to megawatts" deal with Russia was expiring, and the shutdown of German and Japanese reactors in the years after that deal expired were enough of a "demand negative" that the "supply positive" of no more Russian recycled warheads failed to offer much support to uranium prices.
And we should also add to the list, on the negative side, that many more US nuclear power plants are likely to be decommissioned than built over the next decade, as the first generation plants of the 1960s and 70s reach the end of their useful lives and as other aging plants face costly repairs that aren't worth the capital in this era of very low-cost natural gas and relatively low electricity prices (Vermont Yankee, up the river from me here in the Pioneer Valley of Massachusetts, finally cooled its last rod about 2-1/2 years ago, despite the fact that it provided more than 2/3 of Vermont's electricity for decades).
So the bull argument for uranium is quite compelling and very logical and well-supported by charts and projections and facts, and every uranium miner or explorer will have very similar big picture arguments about uranium prices being destined to head higher as part of their investor presentations. And I believe most of it, frankly.
But the timing, unfortunately, is a bit of a challenge. It has been very obvious that uranium prices must go higher for about eight years… with the brief interlude of 2011 and 2012, post-Fukushima, when there were so many negatives that the long-term attractiveness of the sector couldn't overcome the Fukushima fallout stories. But from 2009-March of 2011, and then from probably early 2013 to today, it has been "inevitable" and logical and perfectly argued that uranium prices must rise.
It was logical that uranium prices must remain above $50 in 2009, it was logical that uranium prices must go to $60 in 2013, it was logical that $40 was too low in 2014, and that $30 was ridiculous in 2014, and that $18 was crazy last Summer, and today it's obvious that the current price of $20 per pound on the spot market is completely unsustainable, since no miner can make a profit at that price (the long-term contract price is now down to $32, also near a decade low — almost all uranium is sold to power plant operators on long-term contracts).
So "uranium must go higher again someday" seems to be a fair argument — but "uranium is going to go up in some particular six-month period" has so far been a failed argument from the many experts who have trotted it out. Does that make Uranium Energy Corp a reasonable bet?
Well, a lot of that depends on whether there really is another huge spike in uranium prices — if uranium does go back to $70, or $110, or to the all-time highs of $140, then I'm pretty sure UEC will surge dramatically higher… but so will all other small uranium companies, and the big players (mostly Cameco, CCJ, which is as as close as we get to having a uranium "blue chip" company) will almost certainly also rise sharply. I can't tell you which little uranium speculation will go up highest or fastest, but likely no one will be complaining about holding pretty much any uranium stock IF we get that kind of a price surge.
So… is another surge coming? That mostly depends on whether demand grows frantic enough that nuclear plants — or state actors, when it comes to Chinese and Indian utilities — begin placing orders at higher prices and competing with each other for what they perceive to be an increasingly scarce resource.
And that can happen, for sure, but it has only happened twice in the past thirty years, and I have no way of predicting if or how or when it might come again. I expected prices to rise in 2013 and 2014 and 2015 and 2016, and instead they fell in each of those years… so clearly listening to me on this is not going to provide a clear glimpse into the future. I do have a personal position in CCJ call options (the Leaps, January 2019), because Cameco is the one company I'm pretty comfortable with in the space, with the most reliable high-grade reserves and established production profile and the best leverage for making long-term contracts with customers. I expect it to be the recipient of lots of mainstream institutional investor money if uranium prices surge, and I hope that options will give me the kind of leveraged exposure that you'd otherwise get from a junior explorer or producer (like UEC, for example), but I don't have a huge amount of confidence that this position will be a profitable one.
So sure, I agree, uranium should rise. It only makes sense. But I wouldn't bet the farm on it happening within any particular timeframe — or, indeed, happening at all if there's some further disaster in the nuclear power business. Having logical arguments fail to lead to profit for four years in a row is a sign that there's probably another thumb on the scale that we don't fully appreciate — whether that's just inventory from German and Japanese surpluses that will be worked off, or politically driven increases in production capacity in Kazakhstan, or less demand than conventional wisdom would indicate, or simply that everyone's limping along because the long-term contracts are still profitable and they have hopes of better prices by the time those contracts from five and ten years ago really expire en masse… well, I don't know. You can make your own call on that.
Uranium Energy Corp. isn't really an operating company at this point — they haven't generated any revenue in the past year, and haven't ever really had a meaningful amount of revenue (with the possible exception of 2012). They're a company in waiting — they promote themselves and sell shares to keep their exploration and development budget stocked and to keep building up their potential reserves with a mind to having lots of uranium available to produce when it becomes economically worthwhile to start commercial production. I don't know how attractive their in situ recovery operations are, but the production capacity is relatively small and, as far as I can tell, not really proven at a long-term operating scale, so they might not have the leverage to sign attractive long-term deals with power companies — if they did have that capacity, it would have made sense, in retrospect, to sell all they could when long-term prices were in the $40s and a profit on their stated $20 cash cost would have been all but certain.
My suspicion is that they need a sharply higher price to make meaningful profits, particularly given the $200 million or so they've likely invested in acquiring and developing properties over the years, and that they'd like to be able to use their relatively nimble production profile to ride a volatile spot price if and when the market goes into a real supply deficiency (they can probably start production within six months of the "go" signal, where a hard rock miner would require a year or two to reach commercial production for a shuttered mine), but that's just my opinion after checking in on this company every now and then for several years.
Your opinion and perspective might vary, of course, and it could easily be that I'm a little too jaded after hearing the "uranium must rise" argument perennially trotted out (and, specific to this case, seeing the overly promotional promises of riches for UEC shareholders for several years). If you've got a take on Uranium Energy Corp, or on nuclear power or uranium prices in general, please let us know with a comment below — I'm quite sure that there are many in the great Gumshoe Universe with better crystal balls than mine when it comes to commodity prices.

I think your idea of playing the leaps makes sense as a lower risk way of taking some kind of a position amid the uncertainty of commodity pricing.
Conrad Schudel
In all the years of using Uranium, we still have the problem of dangerous waste or spent materials that will remain active for years & we still have no really safe way to store.
Dumping it in the oceans, deserts or on old mines just makes it more difficult to retrieve.
Using the available thermal energy below the earth's crust seems to be a better alternative.
Dave S.
Reply to Conrad Schudel
The problem with the vast thermal energy below the crust is that it isn't *easily* available in most of the world. It's a complex and expensive PITA to exploit and only makes economic sense in the few places where the heat is very close to the surface. Travis did a good geothermal write-up recently.

I'll sing up joy and glory to assenting angels.
within your loosened hair.  We, spendthrifts of sorrows.
seasons, - are place, settlement, storehouse, ground, home.
bragging its gilded noise, this bursting monument.
clean and shut and disillusioned as the post on Sunday.
But outside swirl the edges of carnival.
Swings of freedom! Divers and jugglers of passion!
for adults: money's anatomical reproduction!
just at the back of the hoarding, just behind, it's real.
earnestly, in the shabby grass, dogs follow nature.
turns away, waves.  What's the use?  She's just a Lament.
or slaggy petrified rage from an old volcano.
Lamentations, the sibyls and omen masters.
on the scales of stars.
upflapped page, the indescribable outline.
And higher, the stars.  New.  The stars of the Painlands.
They stand at the foot of the range.
Alone then he climbs the mountains of primal pain.
And his step never once rings on his soundless destiny.


With summer coming to a close and classes starting soon, their is planning to be done. Seeing our class schedules planned in advance is a huge advantage is prepping for the year mentally and physically. I love to both print out my schedule and hang it up and keep it on my phone as well! *BONUS*, for the first week or so, leave the schedule as a screenshot on your home or lock screen to help you remember it.
Creating a schedule you like is hard enough, than having to actually register for the classes and then preparing for them too. Let's start the basics. What days of the week are you busy!
Every college is different with what times they offer classes, my college is pretty uniform. So, you want to put in all the different time slots, not just the time slots of your class. You can also just do broad times!
Here is how I adjusted my times.
Put in all your set time slots with the class names, so that it looks something like this.
I know, it's boring and hard to read. So, we need to jazz it up! Make it look pretty and less confusing!
Also remember that once you print it out, all the lines disappear and it looks beautiful 😊You can also insert anything else you want to put in there. If you have meetings or specific gym times or even practice.
You can also add in room numbers, professors or supplies you need to bring for that class too.
I hope this helps you like it has helped me and I know you will rock this semester!

While the fashion shows charge on in New York, the parties have been few and far between. It's no surprise, then, that Giorgio Armani blew into town to throw an all-star fête in honor of his new Fifth Avenue flagship. Among the familiar faces in the crowd were Leonardo DiCaprio, Alicia Keys, and Milla Jovovich.


Single Lady Solo Date Night!
I have a confession: As a general rule, I kind of (TOTALLY) hate Valentine's Day. But for nearly every year since I started dating back in high school, I've either been half of a couple or resentfully single on Valentine's Day. This is the first year I've been quite happily single, and it turns out that's the switch I needed to feel pretty giddy about this love fest.
Why, you might ask? When I'm part of a couple, I feel pressured to find a great gift and spend lots of money. I am not a gifty person; it's not how I show love, so this annoys me greatly. However, all of a sudden, if I'm resentfully single, all I want is someone to put all that pressure and expense on me because I JUST WANT LOVE, DAMMIT!
Now? It's a blessed evening to myself that is costing me exactly $21.85 in grocery money. I'm going to celebrate by making Single Lady Stew (aka a spicy, soupy "stew" that contains no meat) and these heart-shaped cookies by Shutterbean for dessert, which will be consumed in front of the TV while watching Grey's Anatomy and cuddling with the dog. My roommate will be out with her Boyfriend-Like Person Who We Don't Call Her Boyfriend, and I get the house to myself!
In case this happens to sound like someone else's perfect recipe for a single lady solo date night, I wanted to share my recipe for Single Lady Stew.
Heat a little oil in a medium pot. Once hot, add the onion, celery, carrot and sweet potato and cook for about six minutes, until softened. Add the garlic and kale and continue cooking until kale wilts.
Add the quinoa, bay leaf, rosemary sprigs, chicken stock, sriracha, salt & pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 20 minutes until quinoa is tender and has absorbed much of the liquid.
A note about the chicken stock: I prefer this dish to have a slightly soupy texture to it, so I use more stock than the quinoa will absorb. If you don't prefer this, use 2 cups of stock instead of 3.
Remove the bay leaf before serving. Serve with crusty bread. And because this dish is basically a big pot full of health, you should have cookies for dessert for a properly balanced diet.

I hate Valentine's Day. I've never met a guy who actually likes or looks forward to the occasion; I mean, flowers & chocolates? Those are for the ladies, amiright? Valentine's Day for men would look a little different: Steak, blowjobs, and gifts of video games. (Don't tell my boyfriend I told you that.) If that was Valentine's Day protocol, how many of you are still on board?
Anyway, I'll be honest, I like being the low-key girl who truly doesn't care one iota about the occasion. I'm not just saying it, I really mean it: we can go right ahead and forget about it. Treat it just like any other day. Pinky swear, I don't mind. In fact, I prefer it.
So I staged a little talk with The Boy about it a couple of weeks ago.
Cut to today. I genuinely have no plans or expectations for the day, and I'm kind of happy about it.

FREE SOCCER PREDICTION FOR 14/MAY/2021
League: Ireland Premier Division
Drogheda United – St Patricks
Pick: Under 2.5 Match Goals
Drogheda United are unbeaten in three matches but remain in fifth place.
St Patricks are in second position having lost just one match so far this season.
Six of the last eight games between these sides have ended with under 2.5 goals.
Stalemate in Drogheda
St Patricks look to bounce back from their first loss of the season last weekend when they travel to Drogheda United on Friday night.
Drogheda have had a reasonable start to the season but sit just outside the Europa League qualifications places. They've gone three games unbeaten but had lost the two games before that in what has proven to be a solid but inconsistent start to the season.
St Patricks were unbeaten before their game against Shamrock Rovers last weekend. They lost that encounter 2-1 but Shamrock appear to be running away with the league already so this match will serve as a good test for St Patricks and their ability to recover from that defeat.
This looks as though it could be quite a tight match with both teams looking evenly matched. Both sides have scored more than a goal a game this season as well as conceded less than a goal a game and with six of the last eight games between the sides seeing under 2.5 goals, we think this will be another low scoring affair. We can't separate the two sides and are forecasting a 1-1 final score.
Fixed Matches Big Odds

David Healy (ur. 1936, zm. 2011) – amerykański astronom amator, astrofotograf.

Życiorys
Pochodził z Los Angeles, jednak karierę zawodową zrobił w Nowym Jorku jako analityk giełdowy przemysłu motoryzacyjnego w banku inwestycyjnym Drexel Burnham Lambert. Był również redaktorem czasopisma "Astronomy". Pisywał także dla innych czasopism astronomicznych i zamieszczał tam zrobione przez siebie fotografie ciał niebieskich. Gdy około 1990 roku bank Drexel Burnham Lambert popadł w kłopoty, Healy porzucił tę pracę i przeniósł się do Arizony, gdzie założył amatorskie obserwatorium astronomiczne Junk Bond Observatory, którego głównym przeznaczeniem były obserwacje wizualne i poszukiwanie planetoid.

W latach 1999–2008 odkrył 237 planetoid, z czego 3 wspólnie z Jeffreyem Medkeffem. W uznaniu jego pracy jedną z planetoid nazwano (66479) Healy.

Nick Adams In America – Page 31 – The future of medical cannabis is very bright.
The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has Tweeted praise towards an unabashed racist who helped make marijuana illegal.
No one is more responsible for marijuana prohibition than Harry J. Anslinger, a former government official who used racism to make the point that marijuana use should be a crime. When arguing for prohibition, Anslinger made statements such as "reefer makes darkies think they're as good as white men", and "marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes".
Despite this disgusting and blatant racism, the DEA sent out a Tweet yesterday praising the man.
"Harry Anslinger helped bring drug law enforcement into the modern age", says the Tweet made a little after noon. "He served as head of US drug enforcement for 5 presidents from #Hoover to #Kennedy, retiring in 1962. They end the Tweet with the hashtags "#TBT" and "#ThrowbackThursday".
Response to the Tweet has shown almost unanimous opposition to it.
The Tweet, and its responses, can be found by clicking here.

Sonoma County, California District Attorney Jill Ravitch is directing staff to review and vacate thousands of past convictions for marijuana.
According to an estimate from county officials, 3,000 cases are eligible for either a sentencing reduction or expungement under Ravitch's new orders. The announcement comes after similar moves were made in Alameda County, San Diego County, and San Francisco.
Last month, Seattle city officials publicly announced plans to similarly review and vacate past cannabis convictions. Days later, newly elected Philadelphia D.A. Larry Krasner announced that his office would cease prosecuting marijuana possession offense violations.
The post Sonoma County (CA) District Attorney To Vacate Thousands Of Past Marijuana Convictions appeared first on TheJointBlog.
In practice, this means that each U.S. Attorney in charge of one of the nation's 94 judicial districts can set their own policies on marijuana prosecution, ranging from hands-off to aggressive—opening the way to a crackdown on recreational cannabis in the nine jurisdictions where it has been legalized, eight states and Washington, D.C.
Sessions dropped this threat just as California and its many cities were getting their new cannabis-regulation systems going. For the first time in the state's history, cannabis will be grown, distributed and sold in a highly regulated environment, generating a substantial amount of jobs and tax revenues. All of its biggest cities have already created elaborate licensing systems for medical and non-medical commercial cannabis activity.
Many California politicians criticized Sessions' move. "We hope the federal government will align itself with the will of, not just Californians, but Americans and not go to a tired playbook of a War on Drugs," Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti stated. Garcetti has taken strong pro-cannabis positions, including appointing activist Cat Packer to head the city Department of Cannabis Regulation.
According to a new study published by the The American Journal of Medicine, marijuana use doesn't seem to be harmful to kidneys.
"Our research provides some reassuring evidence suggesting that there is no detrimental effect of infrequent, relatively light use of marijuana on kidney function among healthy adults under age 60," said lead investigator Dr. Murray Mittleman, professor of epidemiology at Harvard University's School of Public Health and an associate professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School.
To investigate the effects of marijuana on kidneys, Mittleman's team analyzed data from nearly 14,000 U.S. adults, ages 18 to 59, who took part in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2007 to 2014.
The researchers checked levels of microalbuminuria (an increase in urine albumin, which is a marker for kidney disease), and found no association between past or current marijuana use and worsened kidney function or disease.

A group called Colorado for Psilocybin is attempting to decriminalize the possession of psilocybin ("magic") mushrooms in Denver.
The group is working to place the Psilocybin Decriminalization Initiative on Denver's general election ballot. The proposal would decriminalize the possession of up to two ounces of dried mushrooms, or two pounds of uncured mushrooms. Possessing more than this would be a simple citation, with the fee being up to $99 for the first offense. This would be increased by increments of $100 for subsequent offenses; the initiative clarifies that the fine would never be above $999.
Kevin Matthews, who helped draft the initiative, supports decriminalizing magic mushrooms in part due to its medical potential.
"I'm proud to say that psilocybin has had a pretty massive impact on my life," says Matthews. "I struggled with depression for years, I was diagnosed with major depression as a teenager. It's helped me tremendously with my own mental health and on top of that, with creativity, and really being able to just explore different aspects of myself, and really get some healing from the inside out".
Matthews points to a study by Johns Hopkins University that found psilocybin users dealing with cancer-related stress reported lasting positive effects one year later. A New York University study came to similar results. A separate study found that it could provide a potential treatment option for depression.
Legislation to legalize the use of marijuana was passed through its first reading in the Israel Knesset (Legislature) today.
Last month, in a preliminary reading in the Knesset, an amendment to allow the export of medical marijuana passed unanimously. It will need to be passed by the Knesset Labor, Welfare and Health Committee before its first reading.

According to a new study published by the Journal of Clinical Rheumatology, marijuana had "a significant favorable effect" on fibromyalgia among all participants.
Thirty patients were identified, and 26 patients were included in the study. There were 19 female patients, and the mean age of the study group was 37.8 ± 7.6 years. The "mean dosage of MC was 26 ± 8.3 g per month, and the mean duration of MC use was 10.4 ± 11.3 months." After commencing medical marijuana treatment, "all the patients reported a significant improvement in every parameter on the questionnaire, and 13 patients (50%) stopped taking any other medications for fibromyalgia." Just eight patients (30%) experienced "very mild adverse effects".

Georgia's House of Representatives has overwhelmingly passed legislation to expand the state's medical marijuana program.
The House approved House Bill 764 Wednesday in a 145 to 17 vote, sending it to the Senate for consideration. The measure would allow those with post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and intractable pain to join the state's Low THC Oil Patient Registry. The registry, established in 2015, allows those with certain medical conditions to legally possess and use up to 20 ounces of low-THC cannabis oil .
If the bill is approved by the Senate, it will be sent to Governor Nathan Deal for consideration; Deal has expressed support for the measure, indicating he would likely sign it into law if given the chance. If the measure does become law, PTSD and intractable pain would join epilepsy, cancer, Parkinson's disease, ALS, sickle cell anemia, multiple sclerosis, Crohn's disease and mitochondrial disease as qualifying conditions.
The full text of House Bill 764, which was filed by Representative David Clark, can be found by clicking here.

Drug Policy Alliance executive director Maria McFarland Sánchez-Moreno, a veteran Latin America specialist with Human Rights Watch, tells a grim but also inspiring story in There Are No Dead Here: A Story of Murder and Denial in Colombia (Nation Books). It details the efforts of three courageous Colombians to bring to light official complicity in the reign of paramilitary terror in the country over the past generation.
These three won a measure of success, but at the cost of relentless death threats and assassination attempts. One paid the proverbial ultimate price. Their interlocking tales paint a picture of Colombian officials' staggering cynicism, especially during the 2002-2010 presidency of Álvaro Uribe, whose administration was thoroughly integrated with the ostensibly illegal right-wing paramilitary networks, even as he denied everything and portrayed himself as a centrist democrat.
The book opens with the figure who became a martyr in the quest for truth—Jesús Maria Valle, an attorney and human-rights defender in the city of Medellín, who was among the first to raise the alarm about the mounting paramilitary violence in the 1990s. Uribe was then governor of the department of Antioquia, where Medellín is located. Valle initially tried to alert him about the violence in rural communities, before determining that the governor's own anti-guerilla militia force was cooperating with the paras. In 1998, armed men invaded Valle's office and assassinated him.
Antioquia proved to be a testing ground for the strategy Uribe would apply nationally as president. Iván Velásquez, the prosecutor and jurist who doggedly investigated the Uribe government's collaboration with paramilitary groups, picked up Valle's torch. Uribe road-blocked Velásquez every step of the way, launching a media smear campaign against him, while paras operated in the shadows with threats and attacks on his team.
President Trump supports the death penalty for drug dealers, according to a report by the respect news outlet Axios.
In Singapore, drug trafficking offenses result in a mandatory death penalty, a law that has drawn the ire of international communities including the United Nations. However, apparently President Trump loves it, and he's been telling friends for months that the country's policy is the reason its drug consumption rates are so low.
Last year President Donald Trump invited Phillipines President Rodrigo Duterte to the White House despite his murderous drug war that has led to the killing of over 7,000 people without trial.
Cannabinoids may prevent both depressive and PTSD-like symptoms following exposure to severe stress, according to a new study being published by the journal Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology & Biological Psychiatry.

Cubicle life wasn't what a young Jay Fratt saw for himself in 1997. Production deadlines and endless engineering meetings did not fulfill his desire to be a part of the ever-evolving, independent alternative culture blossoming in the 90s. He decided the monotony and repetition of the robotic corporate grind, was not for him. So, Jay quit his 9-5 job in the plastics industry in order to create a different future, one in which he openly and actively pursued his greatest passion, the legalization of industrial hemp. Thus was born the small hemp themed clothing store which over 20 years would grow and evolve into the oldest alternative pipe & tobacco store in SW Washington State … Smokin Js.
What a long strange trip it's been! Smokin Js has grown up as a business during substantial cultural changes in Washington State. From medical cannabis legalization in 1998 to full recreational cannabis legalization in 2012, Smokin Js has participated in cannabis activism and education in Washington State the entire way.
The founder of Smokin Js grew up during the birth of the Internet. Back then you were expected to contribute something to the Internet in trade for asking for something. Jay has taken this idealistic philosophy to the advertising methods of Smokin Js.
Smokin Js has an email list! Like duh, but they do things a little differently than most. With each email they send they give something away for free to a random person who opens the email. Typically during the Christmas and 420 months the prize is sick, or should I say dope af.
CBD (cannabidiol) and CBD-rich extracts may provide a potential treatment option for endometrial cancer, according to a new study published by the Journal of Physiology and Biochemistry, and published online by the U.S. National Institute of Health.
The purpose of the present study "was to characterize cannabinoid elements and evaluate the effect of cannabinoids in endometrial cancer cell viability." Endometrial cancer is a variety of cancer that begins in the lining of the uterus.
The full study, conducted by researchers at the Universidade do Porto in Portugal, can be found by clicking here.

This book is powerful, maddening, joyous, sad, romantic, uplifting, humble, honest and true. Patrisse Khan-Cullors and asha bandele do a fantastic job telling Khan-Cullers' amazing and yet all too typical story.
Amazing, because this young, black and queer woman has managed to create a community full of love, respect and activism in a world not created for her. Typical, because the harassment and abuse she and her family have suffered at the hands of overzealous law enforcement officials, underfunded and overwhelmed social programs, and abusive prison authorities happen to black and brown people every day.
When They Call You A Terrorist: A Black Lives Matter Memoir (St. Martin's Press) is not a long read, but it took me a while to finish, mostly because I had to stop occasionally to process and think about the many points the authors make. Like how, in the aftermath of the Columbine shootings in 1999, it wasn't predominantly white schools like the one she attended that installed metal detectors, even though mass shootings are much rarer in predominantly black schools. Like how the young men in her neighborhood would be terrorized by the cops and strip-searched on suspicion of minor infractions, even though the white weed dealer at her high school had no fear of getting arrested.
One scene describes police coming into Khan-Cullors' home without a warrant to arrest her activist boyfriend. He hadn't broken any laws. How did the cops know where he was? His name wasn't on the lease. It reminded me of when Chicago police assassinated 21-year-old Black Panther Party leader Fred Hampton, in 1969. How many young activists are targeted before they even really get started?
CBD is the unsung hero of the cannabis plant, while the psychoactive THC takes the spotlight. Shira Adler dispels myths about cannabidiol and highlights its many benefits in The ABC's of CBD: The Essential Guide for Parents (And Regular Folks Too).
Best-known for treating inflammation, CBD's properties range from antibacterial to anti-nausea and anti-convulsive. Adler traces CBD to 8,000 BCE, when hemp was cultivated in East Asia, and then to the American Revolution, when George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were the country's most famous hemp farmers.
Adler uses "cannabis" to denote the marijuana cultivar of the cannabis plant and distinguish it from hemp, and is quick to explain that "CBD can be derived from both cannabis and hemp plants. Hemp doesn't flower and cannabis does." She further delineates that "far less THC exists in the hemp plant" and, in a comical discussion about CB1 and CB2 receptors in the brain, compares the body's endocannabinoid system to the Oompa-Loompas and a set of bowling pins.
According to data released by Colorado's Department of Revenue, there was $1.51 billion in legal marijuana and marijuana products sold in 2017.
The $1.51 billion sold is an increase over the $1.3 billion sold in 2016. In 2015 there was $995 million sold, and in 2014 – the first year of legal sales – $683 million in marijuana was sold.
According to the new data, which was released today, there was $1.09 billion in recreational marijuana sold in 2017. As for medical marijuana, licensed dispensaries sold $416 million worth. These sales resulted in roughly $250 million in new taxes for Colorado.
In Washington State – which legalized marijuana in the same election as Colorado – at least $1.2 billion in legal marijuana was sold in 2017, though data for November and December isn't available yet. Based on current trends, the state will end with just shy of $1.5 billion sold for the year, closely mirroring Colorado's total.
In both states those 21 and older can purchase up to an ounce of marijuana from a licensed marijuana retail outlet, while also being allowed to purchase marijuana products such as edibles and tinctures.

While such esteemed authors as Stephen Davis and the late Timothy White penned terrific biographies of Robert Nesta Marley, no writer is more knowledgeable about the Reggae King than Roger Steffens. It took him many years, but he finally completed his book: So Much Things to Say: The Oral History of Bob Marley (W. W. Norton).
Steffens is curator of the world's largest reggae archives, which bursts the seams of his modest Echo Park bungalow in Los Angeles. The Vietnam veteran and photographer/archivist/historian has been an obsessive fan since he was mesmerized by a 1973 Rolling Stone review of the Wailers' Catch a Fire. The next day, he watched the seminal Jimmy Cliff film, The Harder They Come, which cemented his lifelong obsession with reggae.
The author has created a reggae Rashomon in telling Marley's story through more than 75 different interviews that frequently contradict each another. You won't learn too much about Marley's personal life or his series of relationships, though there's plenty of input from Cindy Breakspeare, the former Miss World and mother of Marley's son Damian, who Bob famously holed up with in London after the attempt on his life in Kingston in 1976.

Indian rupee plummets to historic low against dollar
Image caption The Indian rupee has been among the worst performing currencies in Asia
The Indian rupee has continued its downward slide of the past few days and hit an all-time low against the dollar in early trade on Wednesday.
The Indian currency fell to 55.82 rupees against the US dollar, from 55.39 on Tuesday.
The slide comes amid concerns that slowing growth and a high rate of inflation may hurt India's economy.
Analysts said worries about a global economic slowdown had fanned those fears further.
The Indian rupee has been dropping against the US dollar since August last year, falling by almost 26% against the US currency since then.
Various reports have suggested that India's central bank, the Reserve Bank of India, could intervene by selling dollars via state-run banks to arrest any further falls.
Exporter rules
On Tuesday, Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee said that the government was taking a number of steps to arrest the volatility in the foreign exchange market and boost the rupee.
Earlier this month, the central bank asked exporters to convert 50% of their foreign exchange holdings into Indian rupees in an attempt to prop up the currency.
It also said that exporters would only be allowed to buy foreign currency after using up all of the foreign exchange holdings in their accounts.
However, these attempts have so far not been able to stem the rupee's fall.

Angst? What Angst?: A complaint that was raised when Mai, Natsuki and Nao seemingly choose to allow the greatest tragedies in their lives to go forward in order to avert a temporal paradox in a trip to the past. The following chapters, however, indicate that the experience has forced them to realize how much those events have defined them and reconsider their priorities.
Complete Monster: Kirihara Hitomi is the first SUE to encounter the protagonists, and by far the most evil. Initially bored with spending her time mind-controlling people to rob them, after being forced to kill a police officer and a witness, she discovered her darker hobbies. In the appropriately-titled chapter "Moral Event Horizon", Hitomi proceeds to commit her two most vile crimes. First, she brainwashed a police officer to slaughter twenty innocent people—including a baby, because her cries annoyed her—and commit suicide when he's done; then, she mind-controlled another officer into raping and killing his wife, only freeing him of her control to let him discover the act, before killing him as well. The first event was notably horrible enough to convince Nao to join the HiMEs to stop her. After capturing Mai with a mind-controlled Natsuki, Hitomi tried to torture her with her child's powers. She's only stopped from doing so by Shizuru's intervention, and dies from her child's destruction—which would normally result in the death of the person she valued most—showing how self-centered she is. In the end, Kirihara Hitomi is a sadistic sociopath who committed her crimes solely for her own amusement.
Jerk Ass Woobie: Nao, like in canon, although the events that shaped her personality are given more prominence in the story, it's indicated that despite being selfish, bitter and amoral, she has limits, and she eventually becomes less of a jerkass through Character Development.
Moral Event Horizon: Discussed in the third chapter, titled this, which states that actions that should qualify as this for Mary Sues often do not in the eyes of their authors, and are not portrayed as such. Hitomi proceeds to cross it by using mind control to force a police officer to murder 20 innocent people, then commit suicide when he's done.
Shizune crosses it in her first appearance, by murdering Toki.

Elijah Moore - Fantasy Points Outlook
WR NYJ
Moore kept getting it done Sunday, leading the Jets in targets (12), receptions (6) and yards (77) in the loss to the Eagles.
He caught a 3-yard TD pass in the back of the end zone to close out the team's initial scoring drive (which opened at the Philly 21-yard line thanks to a big kick return from Braxton Berrios). Moore had a 4-44-1 receiving line on 5 targets by halftime.
The Jets fared worse in the 2nd half, but Moore wound up accounting for 33.3% of team targets, 26% of the receptions, 34.1% of the receiving yards and 50% of the TDs.
It's still not a great situation, but Moore is already operating as a clear lead WR. With Corey Davis headed for season-ending core-muscle surgery, that should continue.
Moore maintained his target lead in QB Zach Wilson's return from 4 weeks down with a knee injury. Moore drew 8 targets among Wilson's 24 attempts (33%) in Sunday's win over the Texans, doubling his nearest teammate (TE Ryan Griffin, 4). Moore caught 4 of those looks for 46 yards.
Nearly half of that yardage came on a 22-yard catch-and-run in the 3rd quarter. It's worth noting that 2 of Moore's 3 shortest single-game average target depths have come in Wilson games. Sunday's 6.4 ADOT followed games of 11.5, 15.0 and 10.3. It was his shortest since the Week 8 win over Cincinnati, Mike White's 1st pro start.
Wilson clearly doesn't help Moore's efficiency outlook, but it's nice that his return didn't hurt the rookie WR's target share in Week 12. We'll see about the effect of Corey Davis' return once that comes.
The Jets should also be in better spots for target volume going forward. Sunday's win was just the team's 3rd of the season and found the Jets attempting 8 fewer throws than their previous low mark. The team is averaging 38.5 attempts per game for the year.
In Joe Flacco's first start of 2021, Moore posted another big fantasy game: 8 catches, 141 yards and 1 TD. He led all Jets with 11 targets — a 28.2% share. Moore has now hit 10+ PPR points in 4 straight. Zach Wilson might return for Week 11, but the Jets' next 2 matchups (at Houston, vs. Philadelphia) give Moore spot-start value.
Even with the return of Corey Davis, Moore saw his weekly volume. He caught 3 of his 6 targets for 44 yards and a TD. It was the 6th time in 7 games that Moore saw 6 or more targets. He also found the end zone for the 2nd straight week.
Going forward, despite being in an inefficient offense, the Jets continue to play in negative game scripts leading to plenty of volume for Moore. He won't have massive yardage upside but consistent work should lead to solid performances especially if he continues to find the end zone.
Moore scored his first 2 NFL receiving TDs in Thursday night's loss to the Colts -- the 1st from QB Mike White and the 2nd from QB Josh Johnson. Because of course.
It was an impressive performance from the rookie, who was creating big separation all night. He matched a season-high with 8 targets and set new season highs with 7 catches and 84 yards. That followed a 6-67 line in Week 8.
Moore still played just 60% of the Jets' offensive snaps in Week 9, though, and ran a route on 63% of pass plays. Those marks were up from the previous few weeks, but we still need them to be higher if Moore is going to be a reliable fantasy play. We'll also need to see who starts at QB for the Jets in Week 10.
Moore should be owned in fantasy leagues of 12+ teams, but we're not yet ready to trust him in fantasy lineups -- especially in a tough Week 10 matchup vs. the Bills. After that come much better draws vs. the Dolphins and Texans.
Not the debut Moore was looking for. He finished with 1 catch on 4 targets for minus-3 yards. That "catch" came on a jet sweep that the Panthers defense strung out for a loss.
Moore did have some opportunities in this one. He just missed a diving catch on a deep ball in the 1st quarter. And he had a 22-yarder up the left sideline called back by an illegal formation penalty.
Encouragingly, Moore played 86% of the Jets' offensive snaps and ran a route on 85% of pass plays. We'll see what happens to those rates when WRs Jamison Crowder and Keelan Cole return, but we're expecting Moore to remain a top 2 WR for the Jets.
We wouldn't trust the rookie in Week 2 fantasy lineups -- but he should certainly remain stashed on benches.
A 4-star recruit, Moore finished 3rd on Ole Miss in catches and 4th in receiving yards as a freshman. He played alongside A.J. Brown and D.K. Metcalf.
Moore tallied 67-850-6 in 2019 before a huge 2020 (86-1193-8). He led the country in catches and receiving yards per game.
Only 5'9, 185 pounds, Moore wins with rare speed, change of direction skills and post-catch aggression. He also showed reliable hands at Ole Miss.
The Jets selected him 34th overall as the 6th WR off the board in April. He joins a WR corps that includes Corey Davis, Denzel Mims and Jamison Crowder — plus athletic TE Chris Herndon.
Crowder is a cut candidate this summer. If he departs, Moore will certainly get a boost.
Our current projections have Moore for just 70 targets. However, he should see a handful of carries and find most of his targets in the short-to-intermediate ranges.
Rookie QB Zach Wilson will start from day 1. His accuracy profile says he could be a league-average starter right away. Coming from BYU, the jump in competition will be huge, though.
We're high on Moore as a dynasty asset. His athleticism and production profile are both extremely strong. If Moore stood 6'0 instead of 5'9, he'd likely have been a top-20 pick back in April.
In year 1, though, with an offense sure to go through growing pains, we're not expecting significant fantasy contributions. Unless Jamison Crowder is off the roster, Moore is just an end-of-roster stash.
Elijah Moore, WR NYJ
Jets place Moore on IR
The Jets on Saturday placed WR Elijah Moore on IR for his quad injury. That knocks him out for at least the next 3 games, which makes the rookie droppable in most cases if you don't have an extra spot to stash him. Week 17 would be the earliest Moore can return. His absence boosts the target outlooks for Keelan Cole and Jamison Crowder, as well as Jets RBs.

Moore questionable for Week 14
Jets WR Elijah Moore (quad) is listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Saints. He didn't practice all week but is expected to test the quad on Saturday. Stay tuned for updates on his status. His game kicks off at 1 pm ET on Sunday, so we'll know whether he's active around 11:30 am.
Moore out again Thursday
Jets WR Elijah Moore (quad) missed his 2nd straight practice on Thursday. His injury isn't believed to be serious, but the rookie's Week 14 status is in question. We'll see if he practices on Friday and then how he's listed on the final injury report.
11:43am EST 12/8/21
Moore has quad injury
Jets WR Elijah Moore is "day to day" with a quad injury, HC Robert Saleh said Wednesday. Saleh added that he's "hopeful" Moore will be able to play vs. the Saints on Sunday but will know more by the end of the week. We'll keep a close eye on Moore's practice participation over the next few days. The rookie ranks 2nd among WRs in half-PPR points over the last 5 weeks.
2:44pm EDT 10/8/21
Moore will play Week 5
Jets WR Elijah Moore (concussion) isn't listed on the final Week 5 injury report after getting in full practices on Thursday and Friday. He'll return for Sunday morning's game vs. the Falcons in London but is only a desperation fantasy play at this point.
