U.S. Department of Labor job growth projections for early childhood educators in Minnesota show a more than 10 percent increase is expected during the current ten-year period ending 2022. Given the growing demand for early childhood education professionals in the state that cater to young learners with atypical development, Minnesota has also designated "Special Needs Early Childhood" as one of its current teacher shortage areas.

Complete Required Exams and Teacher Performance Assessments
Apply for Minnesota Early Educator Certification
Complete Requirements for License Renewal
Step 1. Earn a Relevant Degree and Complete a Teacher Prep Program

Students who wish to become preschool teachers will need to choose an Early Education program from an accredited school. The Minnesota Department of Education provides a list of state-approved and accredited early childhood education programs.
You will be required to earn at least a C average in all required courses, and to pass all three sections of the MTLE Basic Skills exams before you will can be certified. Upon successful completion of an approved program, and upon passing the MTLE, you will be eligible for licensure in the state of Minnesota.
Step 2. Complete Required Exams and Teacher Performance Assessments
The Minnesota Teacher Licensure Examinations (MTLE) replaced the Praxis series exams previously used in the state.
The MTLE is divided into three main segments: basic skills, pedagogy, and content area subjects. Each main segment also has subtests. Each MTLE subtest has a passing score of 240.
The MTLE website allows you to schedule the computer-based test, usually at a Minnesota college, though testing sites are also available nationwide. The site also offers study materials and practice tests.
There is a registration fee of $50 for the MTLE test.
The basic skills portion of the MTLE consists of reading, writing and math subtests. Each subtest has a fee of $25.
The second portion of the MTLE, pedagogy, consists of two subtests, Early Childhood I and II. Each pedagogy subtest has a fee of $35.
Step 3. Apply for Minnesota Early Educator Certification
The Minnesota Department of Education website offers an online license application page that can be used to apply for an initial license, or to renew an existing one. Minnesota licenses are good for five years.
You must submit your application with verification of your successful completion of an accredited early childhood education program and the MTLE exam. You must also include a license fee of $87 and submit to fingerprinting and a criminal background check.
If you're an out of state teacher applying for a Minnesota preschool teacher's license, you may have to complete additional courses before attaining licensure. Minnesota does not participate in reciprocity, and it requires all teachers to take a Human Relations program with coursework about human relations and cultural diversity. You will have to take these courses to be licensed in Minnesota, and you may also be required to take the MTLE, or courses to satisfy the state's reading strategies standards.
If you have a valid teacher's license from another state, and your state's licensing requirements are at least equivalent to Minnesota's, you may qualify for a one-year license so that you can teach while taking the required coursework.

Step 4. Complete Requirements for License Renewal
Minnesota licenses are valid for five years, and they expire on June 30 of the final year. You may apply for your renewal license online. The license renewal fee is $64.00.
You will also be required to complete a conduct review and to list any recent criminal offenses.
The state also has continuing education requirements for license renewals. You must show proof that you have completed 125 hours of professional development approved through your local school district's continuing education committee.
Current license renewals must show evidence of professional development activities in these areas:
Positive behavioral intervention strategies
Accommodation, modification, and adaptation of curriculum, materials, and instruction
Key warning signs for early-onset mental illness in children and adolescents
Reading preparation
Activities that integrate technology with student learning
Work that demonstrates professional growth in best teaching practices

The number of early educator jobs is projected to increase 10.1% in Minnesota in the ten-year period leading up to 2020, according to the state's Department of Employment and Economic Development. The level of increase is expected to be greater than the state's average in the Seven County Minneapolis-St. Paul area and in Southeast Minnesota. Projections indicate an increase of 10.6% and 13.3% respectively.
The increase in preschool teacher jobs is projected to be more than double the state's average in Central Minnesota, at 27.4%.

Nel corso della sua carriera, ha ottenuto, tra gli altri premi, quattro David di Donatello per il miglior attore protagonista per Mio fratello è figlio unico, La nostra vita, Il giovane favoloso e Volevo nascondermi. Per La nostra vita ha vinto anche il Nastro d'argento al migliore attore protagonista ed il Prix d'interprétation masculine al Festival di Cannes 2010. Per l'interpretazione del pittore Antonio Ligabue nel film Volevo nascondermi ha ricevuto anche l'Orso d'argento per il miglior attore al Festival di Berlino 2020.

Biografia

Inizi
Elio Germano nasce a Roma nel 1980 da una famiglia originaria di Duronia (in provincia di Campobasso). Nel 1988 partecipa al gruppo di bambini che canta Ba Ba Ba Bauli nella pubblicità della marca omonima. Esordisce nel cinema all'età di dodici anni come protagonista del film di Castellano e Pipolo Ci hai rotto papà (1993).

Durante il liceo scientifico (G.B. Morgagni di Roma) frequenta per un anno un corso teatrale presso la scuola di recitazione Teatro Azione, diretta da Isabella Del Bianco e Cristiano Censi. Nel 1995 recita in uno spot tv del Kinder Bueno, mentre due anni più tardi fonda i Bestierare, un gruppo di musica rap. Nel 1999 preferisce abbandonare Giancarlo Cobelli in una tournée teatrale per partecipare al film Il cielo in una stanza di Carlo Vanzina, e da quel momento inizia la sua carriera di attore cinematografico.

Conclusa l'esperienza con Vanzina, lavora con registi quali Ettore Scola (Concorrenza sleale), Emanuele Crialese (Respiro), Gianluca Maria Tavarelli (Liberi), Libero De Rienzo (Sangue - La morte non esiste), Giovanni Veronesi (Che ne sarà di noi), Michele Placido (Romanzo criminale), Gabriele Salvatores (Quo vadis, baby?, Come Dio comanda), Paolo Virzì (N - Io e Napoleone, Tutta la vita davanti) e Daniele Vicari (Il passato è una terra straniera). Al cinema affianca partecipazioni a fiction televisive quali Padre Pio, Un medico in famiglia 2, Via Zanardi, 33, Ferrari e Paolo Borsellino.

La notorietà
La notorietà arriva nel 2007, a seguito dello scandalo provocato da una scena di nudo integrale e in erezione nel film di Paolo Franchi (Nessuna qualità agli eroi). Sempre nel 2007, si aggiudica il primo David di Donatello come miglior attore protagonista con il film di Daniele Luchetti Mio fratello è figlio unico (2007). Nello stesso anno, riceve anche il Globo d'oro della Stampa Estera al miglior attore rivelazione e il Premio Guglielmo Biraghi ai Nastri d'argento. Nel 2008, con la regia di Francesco Patierno, veste i panni del popolare conduttore e autore radiofonico Marco Baldini, in Il mattino ha l'oro in bocca, film basato sull'autobiografia dello stesso speaker Il giocatore (ogni scommessa è un debito). Durante un'intervista rilasciata allo stesso Marco Baldini, a Radio Kiss Kiss, Elio Germano ha dichiarato: "Ho cominciato ad amare la radio con Il mattino ha l'oro in bocca".

Nel 2010 Germano è protagonista della pellicola La nostra vita, diretta da Daniele Luchetti, unico film italiano in concorso al 63º Festival di Cannes, per il quale viene insignito del premio per la miglior interpretazione maschile ex aequo con Javier Bardem. Prima dell'attore romano, l'ultimo italiano ad essersi aggiudicato tale riconoscimento fu Marcello Mastroianni con Oci ciornie nel 1987. Per il film di Luchetti, Germano ottiene anche il David di Donatello per il miglior attore protagonista, e il Nastro d'argento al migliore attore protagonista ex aequo con Christian De Sica.

Alla fine del 2010 interpreta il ruolo di Folco Terzani, figlio del giornalista Tiziano Terzani, nel film biografico La fine è il mio inizio, diretto da Jo Baier e tratto dall'omonimo libro. Nel 2011 è protagonista del film Magnifica presenza, diretto da Ferzan Özpetek, per il quale viene candidato al David di Donatello e al Nastro d'argento per il miglior attore protagonista, e vince il Globo d'oro al miglior attore. Nel 2013 è protagonista del film L'ultima ruota del carro, di Giovanni Veronesi, per il quale viene candidato al Nastro d'argento come miglior attore protagonista. Il film viene scelto come pellicola d'apertura dell'ottava edizione del Festival Internazionale del Film di Roma.

Nel 2014 è protagonista del film Il giovane favoloso diretto da Mario Martone, dove interpreta Giacomo Leopardi, per il quale ottiene il terzo David di Donatello per il miglior attore protagonista, il Premio Pasinetti al miglior attore alla 71ª Mostra internazionale d'arte cinematografica di Venezia, e il Nastro d'argento al personaggio dell'anno. Fa parte del comitato scientifico della Scuola d'arte cinematografica Gian Maria Volonté, una scuola pubblica e gratuita, istituita dalla Provincia di Roma nel 2011, che rappresenta un polo formativo per le professioni del cinema.

Nel 2020, Germano è protagonista del film Volevo nascondermi, nel ruolo del pittore e scultore italiano Antonio Ligabue. Per la sua interpretazione Germano ha vinto l'Orso d'argento per il miglior attore al Festival di Berlino 2020.
Per questo film vincerà poi il David di Donatello 2021 come miglior attore protagonista.

Carriera musicale

Germano fa parte del gruppo rap Bestierare, formatosi a Roma verso la fine degli anni '90 composto da tre voci e un DJ: Siamo Para (voce), Elio (voce), Plug (voce e beat maker) e Dj Amaro ai giradischi. Ha all'attivo quattro album: Come un animale, Precario, Per uscire premi icsilon e Tutto sommato.

Hardwood Decking Alderley Edge - Modern Family Garden.
This decking project in Alderley Edge allowed us to use one of our favourite products, hardwood decking. After a site consultation, we wree able to produce a series of design drafts which fitted the clients needs. The client had a strong ideas of how the final garden would look, and which materials they wished to use. After suggesting the use of hardwood decking, for both its longevity and aestetic properties, it was decided that dekcing would be built using balau hardwood decking. This would be the main famliy entertaining space, seamless joining the garden and home spaces. A new feather egde close board fence line visually enhanced the perimeter of the garden,and gave the client the security and privacy they sought. A new lawn area gives ample play space for the children to enjoy and the new Indian Sandstone paving area creates a stunning visual contrast to the rich colours of the balau decking are. The inclusion of garden lighting and niche elements such as the stainless steel wire balustrade, give the family garden a modern twist! The project was completed on target and budget with a final build cost of £12500.

Neuropathies can occur in all types of EDS, but are found more frequently in patients with Tenascin-X deficiency. In the literature described neurological issues that can be present in EDS patients are: polyneuropathy, compression neuropathy, epilepsy and many others. It is very important that neurologists are well educated about EDS, because they could also be the first to diagnose an so far undiagnosed EDS patient.
To diagnose the different forms of neuropathy there has to be a clinical examination which leads the direction, followed by elctro-physiological tests to confirm the form of neuropathy.
Small fiber neuropathy is a condition that affects the small unmyelated peripheral nerves, which innervate the skin and internal organs.
Symptoms: burning pain beginning in the lower extremities, often at night; paresthesia, tingling, numbness.
Causes: Diabetes mellitus, connective tissue disease, vitamin B12 deficiency, Hepatitis, HIV, alcohol abuse, idiopathic, vasculititis, amyloidosis, Fabry disease.
Safest way to diagnose is a skin biopsy of the lower leg (10 cm above the lateral malleolus). 90 percent of all skin biopsies are positive.
All nerve fibers which cross the epidermal barrier are counted. The density of the intradermal nerve fibers is reduced in SFN.
Treatment of small fiber neuropathy is very hard and mostly consists of pain meds of different classes.


Zenyatta has given us three beautiful foals in three years. She excels at motherhood, a role she wholeheartedly enjoys.From the start, Zenyatta's happiness and well-being has been our top priority. Following the birth of her perfect new filly, we have decided to honor her by giving her a year off from foaling. She will not be bred this year.
Zenyatta continues to be in good health and excellent condition. She will have time to rest, mentally and physically, and to enjoy being a horse in one of the most beautiful places in the country. We would like to thank the wonderful people at Lane's End Farm for making all of this possible.
We're so proud of our Queen!
P.S. Zenyatta may be taking a year off, but Zenyatta.com is not! We will be right here as your only official source for all things Zenyatta, Cozmic One, Ziconic, and 14Z.
She is magnificent and deserves the best treatment possible — glad she will be resting — we all need a break sometimes — human and equine.

The Big Street is a 1942 American drama film starring Henry Fonda and Lucille Ball, based on the 1940 short story "Little Pinks" by Damon Runyon, who also produced the movie. The film was directed by Irving Reis.[2][3] The screenplay was written by Leonard Spigelgass from Runyon's story.

Name's source[edit]
The Big Street was a nickname for Broadway,[4] where this movie's plot starts, and where all Runyon's stories take place.

The film focuses on busboy Augustus Pinkerton II (Henry Fonda), known as Little Pinks, and his relationship with a pretty but cold-hearted singer, Gloria Lyons (Lucille Ball), who is crippled in a fall after her boyfriend, New York City nightclub owner Case Ables (Barton MacLane), knocks her down a flight of stairs in a fit of jealousy. Left penniless by the expenses she incurs during a long convalescence, Gloria is forced to rely on the kindness of Pinks, who invites her to stay with him in his apartment.
Lucille Ball in the film's trailer
When Pinks' friend Violette Shumberg (Agnes Moorehead) marries Nicely Nicely Johnson (Eugene Pallette) and the couple moves to Florida, Gloria orders Pinks to take her there to recuperate, and he pushes her to Miami in her wheelchair. There she reunites with an old lover, Decatur (William T. Orr), who loses interest in her when he discovers she is an invalid. Angry, she lashes out at Pinks, who leaves her and finds work as a busboy in a club owned by Case, only to return when Violette tells him Gloria is ill.
Despondent, Gloria confesses she longs to spend one last night in a gown bedecked with jewels. When Pinks sees socialite Mimi Venus (Marion Martin) wearing one, he breaks into her home, where he overhears her being blackmailed by one of Case's thugs, who is threatening to publicize her infidelity unless she gives him her jewelry. Pinks disguises himself and retrieves the gems from the thief, then tells Case he will report him to the police unless he agrees to host a party with Gloria as the guest of honor.
On the night of the party, the police arrest Pinks, whose Social Security card was found in Mimi's closet. When her husband Samuel learns why the busboy had broken into their home, he takes pity on him and drops the charges. Gloria finally realizes the sacrifices Pinks made for her, and he lifts her in his arms so they can dance. Gloria tells Pinks she wants to see the ocean, then dies. Undaunted, he carries her up the stairs to fulfill her final request.

Damon Runyon originally wanted to cast Charles Laughton and Carole Lombard in the lead roles, but neither one was interested in the project. Lombard suggested the producer consider her friend Lucille Ball and, despite pressure to hire a better-known actress, such as Barbara Stanwyck or Jean Arthur, from RKO executives, Runyon offered her the role. Ball later recalled that at the time she was cast, "nothing much seemed to be happening for me at the studio. My $1000 weekly paycheck came regularly, but I was still a regular among the Bs." [5]
Filming did not go smoothly for the actress. Director Irving Reis was a novice, and co-star Henry Fonda, a former boyfriend on loan from 20th Century Fox, did not offer her much guidance. Fearing his wife might rekindle her relationship with Fonda, Desi Arnaz frequently lingered on the set. Despite these obstacles, Ball considered the film her favorite.[5]
The vocals for "Who Knows?" by Harry Revel and Mort Greene, performed by Gloria in Case's Manhattan club, were provided by Martha Mears. The character later reprises the song with Ozzie Nelson and his orchestra in the Miami nightspot.
The character of Nicely Nicely Johnson appears in the Broadway musical Guys and Dolls, as well as the film. Sam Levene hits the bulls-eye of comic relief in the role of Horsethief, an erudite gambler, a precursor to Levene's legendary Broadway performance as the "craps-shooter extraordinaire" Nathan Detroit in the 1950 original Broadway production of Guys and Dolls (1950), which ran for 1,200 performances on Broadway.
Critical reception[edit]
The film critic for the New York Times called the film "smartly paced and colorful" and "crisply directed" but thought "in deviating occasionally from the plot's general comedy lines, the film over-dramatizes some none too plausible situations with an effect which is sometimes maudlin." He noted Henry Fonda "makes an acutely sympathetic hero opposite Miss Ball's able portrayal of the singer."[6]
Variety wrote that screenwriter Leonard Spigelgass did "a neat job of transferring the spirit of the piece to the screen, studding it with typical Runyon humor," and felt Lucille Ball "comes through with high laurels" and Henry Fonda "is at his best."[7]
Time Out London wrote that the film "captures much of [Runyon's] low-life spirit and colorful vernacular, but occasionally spoils it all by wallowing in unnecessary sentimentality" and added "Ball, in a rare straight role, is stunning."[8]
Turner Home Entertainment released the film on Region 1 DVD on June 19, 2007. It has an audio track in English with subtitles in English and French. Bonus features included the animated short The Hep Cat and the musical short Calling All Girls.

The reserve is at the center of a small zone where amphibian, bird, mammal, and vascular plant diversity all reach their maximum levels within the Western Hemisphere.
Amazon Wildlife Kayak Tour. Shiripuno River. Yasuni Biosphere Reserve in Ecuador.
Moreover, Yasuni breaks world records for local-scale (less than 100 km2) tree, amphibian, and bat species richness, and is one of the richest spots in the world for birds and mammals at local scales as well. A lot of them can be found along the Rivers!
Picture yourself exploring this river as it meanders through muddy beaches and twisting walls of Amazon Rainforest, never knowing what is around the next bend of the river. It could be a cloud of colorful butterflies, a flock of macaws, a river turtles basking on a log, a beach loving caiman, or the ever changing flowers, fruits, seeds, and sounds of the passing forest. And if you are really lucky you might even come across a Tapir or an Anaconda.

PORTRAIT OF A LADY ON FIRE (Portrait de la jeune fille en feu)
(director/writer: Céline Sciamma; cinematographer: Claire Mathon; editor: Julien Lacheray; music: Jean-Baptiste de Laubier/Arthur Simonini; cast: Adèle Haenel (Héloïse), Noémi Merlant (Marianne), Luàna Bajrami (Sophie), Valeria Golino (La Comtesse), Chrystal Baras (La faiseuse d'anges); Runtime: 119; MPAA Rating: R; producers: Véronique Cayla, Bénédicte Couvreur; Neon; 2019-France-in Italian and French with English subtitles)
"Aesthetically pleasing 18th-century period piece drama on desire."
Reviewed by Dennis Schwartz
Céline Sciamma ("Girlhood"/"Tomboy") is the writer-director who tells an aesthetically pleasing 18th-century period piece drama on desire, set in Brittany, in 1770, of an obsessive love between an artist and the subject of the titular painting. The love is built on an erotic female gaze that is returned in kind to the other, and builds to a passionate affair that goes deeper than the sex. It results in a wonderfully accomplished feminist pic telling of a lesbian love between a noblewoman and a commoner, one that gets us thinking about the many different ways women view the world and enjoy sex. The all-female cast makes this love story narrative shake out in a different manner than the way a male director usually views such a queer romance.
French noblewoman (Valeria Golino) has hired a ladies' companion, Marianne (Noémie Merlant), for her beautiful daughter, Héloïse (Adèle Haenel), who has just come out of a convent and stills feels grief from the loss of her suicidal sister. Marianne (Noémie Merlant) is actually an artist that the countess has commissioned to paint a portrait of Héloïse in secret because her strong-willed daughter refuses to pose for a portrait. The countess wishes to show the portrait to a wealthy prospective husband in Milan as a way of getting him to see his future bride before the arranged wedding takes place. It's a wedding that Héloïse is not that keen on.
During the day the ladies go for walks, which gives Marianne a chance to intensely gaze at her subject's face and commit it to memory so she can paint it at night. Héloïse notices how she is being observed, and becomes aware of why only when Marianne is unsatisfied with the half-completed portrait and destroys it. Marianne then confesses her ruse, and Héloïse allows her to openly paint a second portrait. Their relationship blooms. In the second portrait, in a landscape setting, the hemline of the poser's dress catches fire before it's quickly put out.
When the countess is satisfied that her daughter will openly pose for the oil painting, she leaves the ladies alone with the maid Sophie (Luàna Bajrami). A subplot develops when the ladies conspire to help Sophie after learning she's three months pregnant. The solution to the problem is an abortion, which is painted by Marianne.
The female gaze of the woman artist leads to a look that goes deeper than the surface to find what's real. The result is a sensitive and intelligent film that brilliantly tells how limiting it is for women in a patriarchal society and how there are deeper emotions to navigate even if making beauty an object of both love and art. It's a film seen through the eyes of an woman artist that leaves us with as much an allure for the mysteries of a woman as in the masculine directed Hitchcock classics of Rebecca and Vertigo. Though this time we see a sexual obsession tale told from a woman's artistic POV.
Portrait of a Lady on Fire was screened at the Cannes film festival to universal acclaim by the critics.

Two-dimensional Ruddlesden–Popper layered metal-halide perovskites have attracted increasing attention for their desirable optoelectronic properties and improved stability compared to their three-dimensional counterparts. However, such perovskites typically consist of multiple quantum wells with a random well width distribution. Here, we report phase-pure quantum wells with a single well width by introducing molten salt spacer n-butylamine acetate, instead of the traditional halide spacer n-butylamine iodide. Due to the strong ionic coordination between n-butylamine acetate and the perovskite framework, a gel of a uniformly distributed intermediate phase can be formed. This allows phase-pure quantum well films with microscale vertically aligned grains to crystallize from their respective intermediate phases. The resultant solar cells achieve a power conversion efficiency of 16.25% and a high open voltage of 1.31 V. After keeping them in 65 ± 10% humidity for 4,680 h, under operation at 85 °C for 558 h, or continuous light illumination for 1,100 h, the cells show <10% efficiency degradation.

It seems like a long time since I wrote anything and I feel as if no-one is watching. At night class we are doing a short class with Lee (www.notesfromunderthemountain.blogspot.com) and making her pocket for Titania. It was loads of fun last night and we have another night in two weeks so I will try and remember to take a photo of us all.
My pocket is for Tabitha as shown in the photo below. I have also been busy completing stitching for the Woman's Institute Arts Festival - great expectations as mum keeps telling everybody about my work and I have finished several items, cushion, craft bag, knitting needle holder, one button bracelet with another on the way and two brooches.
I would like to get a prize but I am competing with lots of experienced ladies so fingers crossed. Tonight I will finish the button bracelet and then label everything so I can take it to mum's tomorrow as the festival is on Thursday.
I am hoping to get another month done after this week. I have started the backgrounds for two more ATC's so one is done and I will photograph it to put onto here later this week.
This year I have been making ATC's which will go into the book I am now keeping. I decided I liked the size of that and inspiration for me will be words, poetry, songs that mean something to me at the time.

Should the Cardinals Try to Trade for C Jason Kelce?
By Walter Mitchell Jun 28, 2022, 6:59am MDT
Share All sharing options for: Should the Cardinals Try to Trade for C Jason Kelce?
Photo by Gregory Shamus/Getty Images
Background: MINNEAPOLIS, MN - FEBRUARY 04: Jason Kelce #62, Brent Celek #87 and Zach Ertz #86 of the Philadelphia Eagles celebrate Ertz's 11 yard touchdown against the New England Patriots during the fourth quarter in Super Bowl LII at U.S. Bank Stadium on February 4, 2018 in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Per Cardinals draft rumors which have been confirmed by ROTB Editor Seth Cox, the Arizona Cardinals were hoping to draft Nebraska center Cam Jurgens with their 2nd round pick (#55). Apparently the Cardinals have known for a few months that C Rodney Hudson has been mulling his retirement from the NFL.
Problem was the Philadelphia Eagles swooped in at pick #51 to select Jurgens as the heir apparent to perennial All-Pro Jason Kelce.
A little over a month before the draft, after Jason Kelce expressed his desire to play in 2022, the Eagles signed him to a contract extension that enabled them to manipulate the salary cap. Here are the details of the extension and the ways in which the Eagles worked the cap:
https://www.nbcsports.com/philadelphia/eagles/nfl-free-agency-2022-details-jason-kelces-contract-eagles
https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/philadelphia-eagles/jason-kelce-7910/
Contract: 1 yr(s) / $9,000,000
Average Salary: $9,000,000
Total Guarantees: $9,000,000
Guaranteed at Signing: $9,000,00
Free Agent: 2023 / UFA
What the Eagles were likely thinking coming into the 2022 NFL Draft was to draft Jason Kelce's successor with either one of their first round picks or with their 2nd round pick.
However, they first made a move up the draft board to select DT Jordan Davis from Georgia.
Then, much like the Cardinals did in using their 1st round pick to acquire WR Marquise Brown, the Eagles traded their other 1st round pick for WR A.J. Brown.
Those trades meant that if either team wanted to select Tyler Linderbaum of Iowa, the #1 rated center, they would have had to find a way to trade back up into the 1st round.
As it turned out, both the Eagles and the Cardinals were high enough on Cam Jurgens, the consensus #2 center in the draft.
Now that the Eagles have Jurgens, which they couldn't have been certain of before the draft, would they be interested in trading Kelce?
One of the Cardinals who could be a major catalyst in persuading Jason Kelce to play in Arizona is his former teammate TE Zach Ertz (pictured above during Super Bowl LII celebrating with Kelce after Ertz's 11 yard 4th quarter TD).
First off, what the Cardinals would want to know from Kelce is whether he plans on retiring after this season. Kelce is 34 and this will be his 12th season in the NFL.
The thing is, though, despite his age and longevity, Kelce is showing little signs of decline in his play. Not only was he named to the All-Pro team in 2021, his 84.4 PFF grade was 3rd best in the NFL behind Creed Humphrey (91.4) and Corey Linsley (85.7). Furthermore, Kelce's 89.4 run blocking grade in 2021 was second only to Humphrey (92.5).
If Kelce indicates that he is leaning toward retiring after this season, then that would affect the kind of compensation the Cardinals could offer in a trade. Typically players who are one year rentals are traded for a Day 3 pick.
However, if Zach Ertz is able to convince Jason Kelce to play with him in Arizona or the next 2-3 years, then the Cardinals could consider offering the Eagles one of their two 3rd round picks in 2023, if, perhaps, the Eagles would also be willing to add CB Tay Gowan to the package,
If Kelce is able to assure the Cardinals that he is interested in playing 2-3 more years, then the Cardinals could offer him what they were intending to pay Rodney Hudson, plus some added incentives.
The Eagles gave up a significant number of number of 2022 picks in order to trade up for DT Jordan Davis and trade for WR A.J. Brown. Picks 15, 18, 101, 124, 162, 166. This left the Eagles, like the Cardinals, with no 4th or 5th round picks in the 2022 draft.
Adding 2023 draft capital could be very appealing to the Eagles, in addition, of course, to saving $30M. They currently have 2 1st round picks (Saints), a 2nd, a 3rd, a 4th, a 5th and a 7th (7 in total). For a team that might be looking to draft one of the top QBs in next year's loaded NFL Draft at QB, the more draft capital, the better.
Jason Kelce, like Zach Ertz, is an icon in Philadelphia.
Eagles' GM, Howie Roseman, has a track record of wanting to acquire as much draft capital as he possibly can, especially after he has drafted an heir apparent at a position, like he did when he drafted QB Carson Wentz and TE Dallas Goedert.
Perhaps even DT Fletcher Cox could be had in a trade this year, seeing as Roseman was able to draft Cox's successor, Jordan Davis.
Therefore, Roseman, might be open to trading Jason Kelce to a center needy team, like the Cardinals or 49ers, if he gets the right kind of compensation.
As an aside, the Eagles' number one 2022 WR target in free agency was Christian Kirk. When they weren't able to close the deal with Kirk, they shifted their attention to trading for A.J., Brown (costing them picks #18-R1 and #101-R3).
The main question is: Should the Cardinals try to trade for C Jason Kelce?

USS Marcus Island
Marcus Island received four battle stars for World War II service.
USS Marcus Island (CVE-77) was an Casablanca class escort carrier of the United States Navy.
She was laid down as Kanalku Bay under Maritime Commission contract by Kaiser Co., Inc., Vancouver, Washington on 15 September 1943; renamed Marcus Island on 6 November 1943; launched on 16 December 1943; sponsored by Mrs. S. L. La Hache; acquired by the Navy on 26 January 1944; and commissioned at Astoria, Oregon on 26 January 1944, Captain Charles F. Greber in command.
After shakedown and training along the West Coast, Marcus Island made a round trip aircraft ferry run to U.S. bases in the South Pacific from 19 May-1 July. Then she embarked Composite Squadron 21 (VC-21), departed San Diego on 20 July, and arrived Tulagi in the Solomon Islands on 24 August to prepare for operations in the Palaus.

As flagship for Rear Admiral W. D. Sample's Carrier Division 27 (CarDiv 27), she began preinvasion strikes against Peleliu and Angaur on 12 September. She provided close air support as assault troops hit the beaches beginning the 15th, and until 2 October, she launched scores of sorties during embittered fighting on the rugged islands.
Marcus Island arrived at Manus in the Admiralty Islands on the 4th, and after completing preparations for the invasion of the Philippines, she sortied with the Task Group 77.4 (TG 77.4) on 12 October for Leyte as part of the task unit known as "Taffy 2". Beginning on 18 October, she launched airstrikes against enemy positions and during the next week, her pilots flew 261 target and air cover missions.
The Battle for Leyte Gulf and the running fight of "Taffy 3" in the battle off Samar on 25 October are well chronicled elsewhere; Marcus Island 's war diary succinctly recorded the pace of action on the 25th - "A day of intense activity". During the heroic stand of "Taffy 3", fighters and bombers from Marcus Island struck hard at the Japanese force. One TBM Avenger put a torpedo into the portside aft of a heavy cruiser, probably Chikuma. Amidst intense antiaircraft fire, her fighters made repeated strafing runs against battleships, cruisers, and destroyers. Her planes joined in two strikes against the retreating Japanese ships that afternoon, and her pilots claimed 14 hits on enemy ships including a torpedo and six bomb hits on an Agato class cruiser. In addition, her fighters battled and shot down five Japanese planes. On the 26th, she sent 12 bombers and fighters to the Visayan Sea where they helped sink Kinu and Uranami with repeated hits from bombs, rockets, and machine guns.
Marcus Island departed the Philippines 30 October but returned less than two weeks later as part of the escort for the Mindoro attack group. Departing Kossol on 10 December, she transited Surigao Strait on the 13th. Her patrolling aircraft shot down one enemy fighter on 14 December and shot down three more planes on the 15th. Marcus Island came under attack the morning of the Mindoro invasion, and from 0810-0930, enemy planes made three suicide runs and one bombing strike against the carrier. All the planes were shot down or deflected by intense antiaircraft fire, although two kamikazes crashed close off the bow to port and starboard causing minor damage and several casualties.
Between 16–23 December, Marcus Island returned to the Admiralties; on the 29th she departed once more for the western Philippines, steaming with units of the Luzon Attack Force for operations in Lingayen Gulf. As she steamed through the Mindanao Sea on 5 January 1945, one of her planes depth-bombed a Japanese midget submarine, which was subsequently rammed and sunk by Taylor. Three days later, her planes shot down four enemy aircraft in spirited dogfights. As the amphibious landings began the 9th, Marcus Island launched close support and strafing strikes over the Lingayen beaches. In addition they attacked and sank two small enemy coastal ships north of Lingayen Gulf along the Luzon coast that same day. Marcus Island continued to provide coordinated airstrikes in support of the Lingayen operations until steaming down the Luzon coast on 17 January. On the 29th, she furnished close air support during an unopposed landing at Zambales Province, Luzon, then she steamed to Ulithi, arriving on 5 February.
Rear Admiral Sample hauled down his flag on 6 February, and on the 8th, Marcus Island became flagship of Rear Admiral Felix Stump's CarDiv 24. The carrier debarked hard-hitting VC-21 on 14 February and embarked VC-87 the same day. After completing training out of Ulithi, she steamed to Leyte Gulf on 4–7 March to conduct rehearsal exercises for the impending invasion of the Ryukyu Islands.
Departing on 21 March, Marcus Island arrived south of Kerama Retto on the 26th and began launching airstrikes. She provided close air support and air cover during operations in the Ryukyus. From 26 March-29 April, she operated primarily south and southeast of Okinawa while launching attack and spotter strikes. Composite Observation Squadron 1 (VCO-1) replaced VC-87 on 5 April. Planes of both the squadrons flew 1,085 sorties during this period and pounded enemy airfields, gun emplacements, supply dumps, and troop concentrations. Her pilots shot down 11 Japanese aircraft and destroyed another 13 on the ground.
Marcus Island departed Okinawa on 29 April, and after loading damaged aircraft at Guam, she sailed on 5 May for the United States, arriving San Diego on 22 May. She sailed west again on 10 July, carrying replacement troops and aircraft to Pearl Harbor and Guam before returning to Alameda, California on V-J Day. Sailing once more via Pearl Harbor and Guam, she reached Okinawa on 28 September and embarked returning troops, arriving San Francisco on 24 October. By early-January 1946, she completed additional "Magic Carpet" runs to Guam and Pearl Harbor.
Departing San Diego on 12 January, Marcus Island sailed via the Panama Canal and Norfolk, arriving Boston on 2 February. She remained at Boston, decommissioned there on 12 December 1946, and entered the Atlantic Reserve Fleet. She reclassified to CVHE-77 on 12 June 1955 and to AKV-27 on 7 May 1959. She was sold at Boston to Comarket, Inc. on 29 February 1960.
