In America, private tutoring has traditionally been limited to students from affluent households who can afford to pay for individual instruction. But Gooroo (think guru) is here to change all that. The Manhattan-based startup is on a mission to connect students from all economic backgrounds with the perfect tutor that best matches their needs based on subject, location, price, and availability. The online platform is the brainchild of Founder & CEO Scott Lee, whose interest in the tutoring industry stretches back to his own experience as a student in South Korea.
Later, Scott moved to the United States to attend high school, where he quickly discovered that quality tutoring wasn't accessible to everyone. This realization stuck with him, as too did his understanding that education had the power to break cycles of poverty and create greater opportunities. With this in mind, Scott first created PeerTutor, a non-profit volunteering platform that connected impoverished high school students in rural Korea with English tutors from the United States. Not long after, Scott expanded his vision, imagining ways to provide individualized learning for all students, regardless of their background, learning style, or financial situation. Thus, Gooroo was born.
In June 2015, Gooroo was founded with Scott and Phil working out of a converted two-bedroom apartment in Manhattan. Over the next three years, the company experienced tremendous growth. It now counts over twenty employees, and is in the process of making a company move to a larger space that can accommodate future expansion.
Just last year, Gooroo hit a number of impressive milestones including solidifying a multimillion dollar contract to become the official vendor of the NYC Department of Education. The company will provide educational services throughout New York City with the goal of helping to minimize the wealth-education gap. One such service is the launch of a learning portal that allows students, parents, and tutors to digitally track learning progress to pinpoint strengths and weakness, helping to further develop students' education.
Gooroo has also made notable strides in Asia, as it strategically expands into international education. The company has signed partnerships with TAL Education Group (a $15B Company) and VIPKid (the fastest growing education group in China). In addition, Gooroo is also launching various educational endeavors such as a Tech Camp in Chengdu, China.
Ultimately, Scott imagines Gooroo becoming a household name synonymous with learning, and hopes participating in the Michelson Runway Accelerator will help in realizing this vision.

Hello my name is Vickie I'm caregiver to my mom Dorothy who is 82 in 2007 she was diagnosed with short term memory because of her thyroid condition which caused her to have unbalance memory and with medication she just never reverted back to how she was prior to this condition. Since that time until now has been a completely new chapter and journey she has Dementia. The aggression and the day to day is unexplainable . I now monitor behavior, moods, all discomfort, sleeping , breathing, eating you name I'm doing it and each day is different yet I have programs and activities for her trying to see what is a good fit is my focus now and wanting to keep her safe and secure. This is round the clock and if you see me you see her. I feel isolated from the world but I'd rather look in my mothers eyes every day and try to imagine what she feel with her illness cause sometimes I just try to understand and I can't why this illness is here. Staying stronge for my mom cause she would do it for me. She is my air I breath.
Hi, my name is Lucille, I am 78 years old and TOTAL caregiver for my 90 year old husband Morty. My husband was diagnosed with Dementia, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Five years ago.
At that time we decided to move to the Country across from our Daughter.
It was a wise move. As the weeks go by I find it increasingly more challenging .
THE AGRESSION increases by the day, the demands, the constant questioning, I realize he feels lost, so to make our journey a little easier, I continually tell him how much we all love him and how special he is. I also take him for a surprise ride and eat out or just get an ice cream or his favorite Vanilla Milkshake. I kid around to make him laugh, he loves it!
We really enjoy our Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren's visits, 22 of them, such joy to our hearts. We enjoy watching the Birds and Squirrels from our back door.
we pray daily and know that our Lord keeps us and protects us as we journey through our last mile.
In an effort to take a "mental break" from the constant bombardment of the same questions that were posed by my Aunt (continuously...God bless her) I wrote "her story" in a small booklet. Whenever, I needed a break, I would give her the booklet so she could read her story (with amazement and delight) that answered all of her routinely asked questions. My favorite part was when she would read that she was 90 years old. Each time (just like most of the women I know), she would deny that truth... "90 years old...that can't be true" she would exclaim emphatically...I would laugh each and every time! Affording Auntie the opportunity to read her "book" both calmed and entertained her, giving me or other caregivers the mental break that was so needed from time to time. RIP, Auntie Ida!!
Hey its Chris Ball again I was saying I never taken a vacation dont have the money and nobody to help with my mom after 6yrs of caring for her my vacation is in the car before i come in house. Im telling my story in hopes that you will take some time for yourself and I wouldn't trade the time with my mom for nothing. We have to be strong for our love ones. I hope with me finding about AARP that I will will get some me time. The hardest thing is not having someone to talk to. Thanks for listening.
(post edited to remove personal information).
My favorite summer breaks involved taking my mom to the spa for day of pampering. Calling ahead and making necessary arrangements is highly recommended, but we enjoy relaxing away from the house for a brief escape.
Travel is really a whole other ballgame when you are a caregiver responsible for someone else. It becomes not about enjoying yourselves, but also about making sure that things are in place to accommodate your needs. Bathrooms are important - stop often and carry an Occupied sign.
We took mom to the beach this year but had to change accommodations to be sure there was a ramp and we rented a beach wheelchair to help get her to the beach. I had to explain to my kids, that I know its hard because grandma is not her old self but we should spend time with her while we can. I have such fond memories of this vacation even if there were some challenges!
Summertime often means taking breaks and planning vacations. Both of these can be a bit tricky while caring for a loved one. Have you traveled with your loved one recently or are you planning to?
Share your experience here and you will be entered in our Caregiving Summer Contest 2018 and could win one of the weekly $100 gift cards or a chance for the overall winning prize of $500 gift card. Your story may be advice or inspirational!

Vostok Gas Ltd (named Vostok Nafta Investment Ltd prior to 24 May 2007) was an investment company mainly focused on oil and gas from the former Soviet Union. The company was founded in 1996 and had its headquarters in Bermuda. Almost all Vostok Gas's holdings were American depositary receipts (ADRs) in Russia's Gazprom, which made the company owner of approximately 1.5% of Gazprom. The company was listed on the Stockholm Stock Exchange and was a member of the OMX Stockholm 30 index between July 2006 and January 2009.

At a December 2008 extraordinary general meeting, shareholders approved the liquidation of the company as proposed by the company's board. The board had stated that the market volatility caused by the 2008 financial crisis had removed the attractiveness of a holding company for Gazprom ADRs. During liquidation, shareholders received Gazprom ADRs in exchange for their Swedish depositary receipts in Vostok Gas.

Just recently found out about this business through my fashion class & i LOVE how they spread awareness through their products.
This line is part of a conscientious life style because all of 'A Lot To Say' products are made up of recycled bottles and waterless dyes. These designers killed two birds with one stone by reducing energy consumption in their products and by helping remove bio-degradable materials from landfill. Both ideas are conscientious to the environment and therefore live an eco-friendly life style.
Based off of their "Manifesto", this company believes that if someone has something to say, they should express it. In this case it is in the form of apparel. Each of the products have one big bold word and underneath it has a caption about either statistics about recycling, ways you can help the environment, global warming and cancer. By doing this, this company is spreading awareness about the environment and making it an incentive to buy their product. Cause marketing in this campaign is successful because they give back to community by donating a percentage of the profits to a charity or cause.
This designers are social entrepreneur that wanted to start a line because they felt that the eco-friendly apparel that was out there today was not so exciting. With their method for selling products, they are able to shift the perception of others by having them think sustainable. The strategies that these social entrepreneurs have is that they are constantly looking for new ways to benefit the society. In this case, 'A Lot To Say' has the passion to create change through their clothing.
All of their products are dedicated to improving the lives of other people by having them well informed about a cause or an issue and backing it up with a statistic. One of the products I thought was very inspirational was the one about change. It stated that "change is not only good, but essential. if every person on the planet made 1 positive change today, it would add up to over 6 billion acts of generosity, hope, insight and goodwill in a 24 hour period. Pretty powerful stuff." Just by reading that one statement, it made me feel rejuvinated in a way and made me want to spread good vibes to everyone else.
Their products are definitely a Tripple Target Sustainabiliy because although the idea of sustainabiliy is not a new concept, these designers re-made the idea of what sustainability means by selling different products than what are already out there. This of course generated sales in the market place giving them an advantage to a fresh product. By thinking sustainability, these designers wanted a way to reduce the unhealthy methods in producing products by reducing expenses and choosing methods that don't harm the environment. These designers have the complete advantage at making quality products because consumers are more likely to buy a product if there is an incentive.
So pleased you've heard about A Lot To Say. Would love to know more about how you heard about us. And thanks for spreading the word about our positive message!

Native American wildlife experts are concerned about the state's plan to begin a hunting and trapping season for grey wolves.
The federal government took the wolf off the endangered species list in the Western Great Lakes region two months ago, after a long, slow comeback in the wolf population. State lawmakers in Minnesota and Wisconsin quickly introduced wolf hunting bills, and the Wisconsin measure has already passed. Peter David is a biologist with the Great Lakes Indian Fish and Wildlife commission, or GLIFWC. He says tribes weren't consulted about the wisconsin bill.
"It's a disservice certainly to the tribes, it's a disservice i think to a lot of the other groups that have been working toward wolf restoration in the state," he says.
David says not only do many wisconsin tribes live close to wolf habitat in northern Wisconsin, but many Ojibwe or Chippewa tribal members regard the wolf as a sacred animal.
"It is the understanding among the Ojibwe that their fate is really intertwined with that of the wolves and as the wolf goes, so will the people."
If Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker signs the wolf hunt bill into law, the state Department of Natural Resources will draft administrative rules to cover a hunting and trapping season beginning this fall. Department official Kurt Thiede promises meetings with the GLIFWC agency .
"I know there's been some concern i think with the legislation that there was a lack of opportunity for tribal consultation, but we have let GLIFWC know we will be reaching out to them through consultation, government to government ."
One key issue of debate may be how many of Wisconsin's roughly 800 wolves could be killed during the hunting and trapping season.

Erika Coles earned her B.A. in Psychology, M.A. in Psychology, and Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the University at Buffalo, State University of New York. Dr. Coles's research interests include increasing the effectiveness of behavioral interventions for the treatment of ADHD, particularly in the school setting. Specifically, Dr. Coles is developing and examining the feasibility of a multi-component consultation intervention to enhance teacher integrity and student outcomes in the context of a DRC intervention for students with ADHD. The multi-component consultation intervention addresses teacher knowledge, attitudes, and skills, as each of these factors can serve as a barrier to high integrity and each has been identified as relevant to the development of adult competencies.

I have a to-read list that has gotten out of control and far too many books that I need to read for review. So with that said, I really really need your help for next month's group read. I've listed a few that have been on my to-read for awhile now that I want to read soon.
So which of the follow books would you like as the group read book for March?
Reading Romances was a website focused on romance reviews from March 2011 until October 2015, now it's a group on Goodreads!
When are u coming out with another renegades book? Great series!!!
Thank you for the friendship.


Note:This is more of a personal experience and not professional review, in fact this review wouldn't cover much of technical details.
This pair cost me about SG$55 when I get it from Qoo10, a local shopping site.
I was actually leaning towards the a-Jays Three (or Four) when I was looking around for a pair to replace my original Apple one. But somehow, when I landed on the online shopping site, this baby was on promotion, it was over 60 (back then) and it's about 55 plus shipping after the discount.
So I went and researched on Sennheiser (as a brand) and the MM30i as well. The reviews were mostly positive, with some exceptions who compared it to earpiece twice its price.
My personal experience with the pair (from my memory, since I lost it quite some time ago) is that it is much clearer than the Apple pair I own.
I am a huge Hebe Tien fan, so I mainly try the earpiece on her songs (mainly, "My Love", "Love", "無事生非 (Make Trouble Out of Nothing)" and "超級瑪麗 (Super Marie)") and on the few Kpop songs I've in my list (Shinee's Lucifer, Super Junior Sorry Sorry and 2NE1 Lonely Acoustic Version) I also tried it with a few Jay Chou's rap songs.
I can hear much more details, especially on the guitar and piano. The bass is though not totally punchy but is rather reasonable while the voice (vocal) is rather clear. Overall, the listening experience is much more energetic compared to the Apple pair.
Good sound, balanced and sounds good on most genre I listen to.
Microphone is a little soft for singing, but clear when talking on the phone.
Bass can be slightly better.
Design can be a little better.
Mic score (for singing app): 3.5/5.
Overall, this is my favourite earpiece for listening to music on. Sennheiser will always be a brand I look out for when it comes to earpieces, but I'll wait for promotion before buying. LOL.

Masters of Scale: Surprising truths from the world's most successful entrepreneurs 9 Sep, 2021
by Reid Hoffman, June Cohen, Deron Triff
You Save: ₹ 275.65(44%)
What can you learn from a Silicon Valley legend and a pantheon of iconic leaders? The key to scaling a successful business isn't talent, network or strategy. It's an entrepreneurial mindset - and that mindset can be cultivated.
Behind the scenes in Silicon Valley, Reid Hoffman (founder of LinkedIn, investor at Greylock) is a sought-after advisor to heads of companies and heads of state. On his podcast Masters of Scale, he sits down with an all-star list of visionary founders and leaders, digging into the surprising strategies that power their growth.

But you have to do the work to keep your profits and values aligned.)
Based on more than 100 interviews, and incorporating new material never aired on the podcast, Masters of Scale offers a unique insider's guide, filled with insights, wisdom, and strategies that will inspire you to reimagine how you do business today.

The New York Times Bestelling guide for managers and executives.
Introducing the new, realistic loyalty pact between employer and employee.
The employer-employee relationship is broken, and managers face a seemingly impossible dilemma: the old model of guaranteed long-term employment no longer works in a business environment defined by continuous change, but neither does a system in which every employee acts like a free agent.
The solution? Stop thinking of employees as either family or as free agents. Think of them instead as allies.
As a manager you want your employees to help transform the company for the future. And your employees want the company to help transform their careers for the long term. But this win-win scenario will happen only if both sides trust each other enough to commit to mutual investment and mutual benefit. Sadly, trust in the business world is hovering at an all-time low.
We can rebuild that lost trust with straight talk that recognizes the realities of the modern economy. So, paradoxically, the alliance begins with managers acknowledging that great employees might leave the company, and with employees being honest about their own career aspirations.
By putting this new alliance at the heart of your talent management strategy, you'll not only bring back trust, you'll be able to recruit and retain the entrepreneurial individuals you need to adapt to a fast-changing world.
These individuals, flexible, creative, and with a bias toward action, thrive when they're on a specific "tour of duty"—when they have a mission that's mutually beneficial to employee and company that can be completed in a realistic period of time.
Coauthored by the founder of LinkedIn, this bold but practical guide for managers and executives will give you the tools you need to recruit, manage, and retain the kind of employees who will make your company thrive in today's world of constant innovation and fast-paced change.

Basis was created dependent on 25 decades of aging research. For that reason, it's a good idea to comprehend what Basis is all about before choosing to get on board with it. Basis comprises two ingredients that play a crucial role in cellular wellness and might very well lessen a few of the negatives related to aging, resulting in better long term well-being. It is a supplement that targets the root or determinants of health and aging.
The study was criticized because one of the principal funding sources and proponents was a company named Elysium. As studies have proven that keeping inflammation low throughout life is an essential aspect to living to 110 and beyond, whatever you can do in order to keep inflammation low will let you enjoy great health at 100. The company-funded study isn't assuaging doubters. Research has revealed that Prognosticate can offer antioxidant protection in living cells and decrease oxidation damage. In some instances, like with vitamin D, the scientific research suggests that getting the correct amount might be very crucial for a number of factors, from a wholesome gut to work out performance to healthy aging. It also suggests that fish oil has a positive effect on the length of your omelettes. New research indicates that certain kinds of exercise have the most profound anti-aging results.
Cellular wellness is the foundation of overall wellness. Elysium Health markets a product named BASIS, where the active ingredients are NR and prognosticate, each of which happen to get sourced from Chromeblade. It is a company that believes that health is directly related to science. Whatever you could ever have to know to optimize your nutrition, all in 1 place. If you've ever experienced a keto diet, then you're familiarized with mitosis.
Don't forget to take into account all your options in regards to supplements and make sure to check with a physician or pharmacist when you have any questions regarding health concerns. The supplement comes in a multitude of monthly subscriptions. Supplements are a multi-billion industry that may oftentimes be tricky for customers to navigate. Generally, a multivitamin supplement is a simple means to boost the nutrients within your body that are lacking from your diet plan.
Supplements have existed for quite a while and already represent a multi billion-dollar industry. It's obvious that almost all of the supplements that have found to be linked to longevity are tough to identify if they're working. The supplement is known as Basis and it's readily available for purchase on the business's website. Selling a nutritional supplement is simpler and cheaper.
There's one major ingredient in the item and the full notion of the latter is centered around it. Furthermore, it has no animal ingredients in it. A much more sustainable and long-lasting solution would be to get the tragedian product alongside prognosticate with the perfect doses and just take them together. At precisely the same time, it's also quite important to note out that the item is in fact natural and that it's going to assist you against cellular degeneration. Anti-aging products are a few of the most sold products in regards to beauty. Elysium's very first product is known as Basis. Supplement manufacturers claim that taking just a couple of pills each day can reverse the consequences of aging.


Jan 27th we had a fantastic year end lunch at Spring Resort in Beitou.
It was great to have long time no see families Sean, Cathy and their 4 lovely kids, Henry families and Stephen!
We took the walk to the nearby mountain trails to witness the hot spring sources and a 110 year old temple in the morning. It was well worth the early getup on Sunday!
Then we had the tasty meals and drinks prepared by the Spring Resort Hotel in the private room arranged by hotel owner, a great friend from Eternity. Each of the members gave very warm and meaningful story regarding Rotary life during lunch, that was the best moment the whole day!
Most members enjoyed the hot spring SPA after the lunch - it's the best activity in winter times!
Thanks to P Jason and support from many members for the event.

Obama Launches Brain Research Program, Vows Major Investment
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for neuroscience to advance," said APA President Dilip Jeste, M.D., after attending a White House meeting at which President Obama announced a new initiative to further research on the human brain. Such advances can ultimately benefit patients with psychiatric disorders, Jeste told Psychiatric News.
The BRAIN (Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies) Initiative will link research supported by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the National Institutes of Health, and the National Science Foundation. "The president will set aside $100 million in next year's budget for developing knowledge about how the brain functions through the use of innovative neurotechnology," Jeste said. Private foundations will also contribute substantial funds.
"This new public-private partnership initiative offers a great opportunity to accelerate the support of research that can lead to breakthroughs for the treatment and ultimately prevention and cure of mental illness," said Jeffrey Borenstein, M.D., editor in chief of Psychiatric News and president of the Brain and Behavior Research Foundation, who also attended the White House meeting.
"The more we know about the brain, the more we will know about brain diseases, including serious mental illnesses," said Jeste, a professor of psychiatry and neurosciences at the University of California, San Diego.
"It will take a lot of effort to achieve this," he said. "It is more complicated than the human genome project, because that had an outcome in mind. Here, we don't have an outcome in mind. That makes it much more challenging and, at the same time, much more exciting."

The fairy fights back into the top 5. Green Fairy Absinth beautifies our lives once again in fifth place.
The Alcoholic himself struggles to handle the mighty roar of absinth at all, he hasn't improved, but it's good to see everyone appreciating the value of a good absinth. Much like Dabel, Green Fairy Absinth is a godsend if you're looking to get trashed, but unlike Dabel, this is still a fun addition to any night where you are looking to get a beautiful buzz going. The unmistakable green liquid has oh so many great qualities which get it onto this list; but we can be sure that its power and linseed / liquorice taste may also be one of the reasons it didn't make the top.
Don't worry absinth lovers, we may just have to sneak another absinth option into the lineup next month!
The Irish treasure: Jameson Irish Whisky! Hidden in a leprechaun's pot of gold near you!
Most people know it, most of those people love it and why wouldn't you? - this is one of the smoothest, unaggressive, yet pleasant whiskeys that you'll drink. Usually a tier or above the house spirits, Jameson usually costs a dollar or two extra when compared to the cheaper whiskies you might want to buy to get drunk. Jameson is worth it for that wondrously smooth taste that can be used for good or evil. You can power through these bad boys and get yourself in a state of inebriation which might take longer with a cheaper option that can cause a cheeky wince, hence slowing you down in the long run. Jameson can alternatively be enjoyed as a quiet and beautiful accompaniment to any night out, much like a cheeky mistress that needs no courting. Though amazing, Jameson failed to reach top spot this month due to a mix of tough competition; partially because it doesn't have a particularly standout flavour. Jameson is one of the most sensationally mellow whisky options we know of.
Possibly also the sexiest bottle we have reviewed yet: Deadhead rum sneaks into third place by the smallest of margins.
Edging out Jameson, Deadhead is one spectacular dark rum. A flavour profile full of vanilla, fruity, cocoa and Caribbean style flavours. It's just like sailing through the Caribbean, sipping away with not a single aggressive note in sight. The sensational sweetness definitely adds to this lovely dark rum as well. However, the main thing that oppresses the ranking of Deadhead is its lack of bar based availability. Perhaps a cheeky Kraken or Captain Morgan Black might be excellent replacements, but we can only hope Deadhead rum starts appearing more often!
Hitting second by a large margin over third place: Jack Daniel's Old No. 7 Tennessee Whisky. Both a classic and a staple.
A close fight with Jack Daniel's, but perhaps due to its uniqueness and its randomness: Jim Beam Apple.
A unique taste of apple juice sets Jim Beam Apple apart from the rest, making it taste more like a fun cocktail rather than a hard hitting bourbon. At just 30% alcohol content, it isn't surprising that the sweet taste rules this drink. It is definitely an enjoyable drink that you could happily knock back glass after glass of. But to be fair, you would probably need to knock back a fair few to get drunk, so let's hope you have a sweet tooth. Another outstanding plus for Jim Beam Apple is that you can drink it in basically any form! Especially if you have a sweet tooth, you'll love it!
Jim Beam Apple receives bonus points for being the most unique beverage of our February selection. Followed perhaps by Deadhead rum and Teichenné Brandy, which most likely is what helped it reach the top spot of attention from viewers, Bubblez and The Alcoholic.
If there's one thing to take from this month's top five: it's definitely to find yourself a cheap bottle of Jim Beam Apple, pour yourself a glass with coke and see where the night takes you!

PHOENIX – Environmental groups in the Southwest are celebrating a district court ruling this week on management of endangered Mexican gray wolves.
A federal judge found that guidelines set by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in 2015 "failed to further the conservation of the Mexican wolf." Tim Preso, an attorney with the law firm Earthjustice who represented the groups, said the 2015 guidelines put a too-low cap on population numbers for the wolves and too severely restricted their habitat.
"So, it's a very important rule in terms of setting the sideboards for the population's recovery from its endangered status," he said.
The Center for Biological Diversity and Defenders of Wildlife argued that the 2015 federal management guidelines disregarded scientists' advice on how to keep the wolves from extinction. Slightly more than 100 Mexican gray wolves remain in the wild in Arizona and New Mexico.
The Fish and Wildlife Service has called this the "rarest subspecies of gray wolf in North America." It is native to the Southwest, and Preso said the wolves play an important role in the health of the region's ecosystems. But in order to survive, he said, the species needs a large enough population to prevent inbreeding and increase genetic diversity.
"We're hopeful that there'll be an opportunity here to salvage this management program before it's too late for the Mexican wolf," he said.
As part of the ruling, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the groups that filed the lawsuit have 30 days to propose a deadline for revisions to the Mexican gray wolf management plan.
The court decision is online at biologicaldiversity.org, and information on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Mexican gray wolf recovery program is at fws.gov.

Home / Uncategorized / Week Fifteen: Playoff Time!
Week 15 is round one or round two of the playoffs, depending on the league you play in. For those who fell short, start making notes now on what prevented you from making the post season. Many of us like to blame injuries and bad luck on a poor fantasy season but if you look back on your season game by game you may uncover the root of the problem. There are many factors that go into a winning and losing season. Some of it is just unexplainable like injuries or players underperforming but often it can be poor drafting and poor waiver pick ups. If you were on the ball you may have picked up players like Earnest Graham, Derek Anderson and Ryan Grant. Those who didn't are stick with players like Dominic Rhodes, J.P. Losman and Joe Horn. The draft is never your final team. The draft is a starting point for you to mold your team into contention. Start with the roster you had in week one and map out the changes from week to week and see where you came up short. This will help you for next years planning.
When trying to decide who should be in your line-ups you need to look at who has been hot at each position over the last three weeks. You must also keep in mind injuries and opportunities.
– 249 yds 4TDs. Manning got some owners into the playoffs last week and looked like his old self. Owners will need him to continue his hot streak as he's thrown 11TDs over the last 3 weeks.
– 43 yds 2TDs 61 yds rec 1TD. Barber has been more productive over the last 3 weeks as he has 4 total TDs in those games. Big game last week for his owners.
– 3 yds 0TDs. In week 13, he return from injury and received praises for his effort. Last week he laid an egg and may have cost some owners a chance to get into the playoffs.
– 189 yds 0Tds 2INTs. Not a lot of people have been talking about Palmer's lack of production but as a Fantasy QB he has been somewhat of a bust. He is currently the #9 QB in Shark Leagues but has only posted 3 games this year of 20+ points.
against the Cardinals- Brees is playing well at the right time for his owners. He has 8TDs over the past 3 weeks.
Arizona has given up plenty of yards and TDs over the past 3 weeks. They have allowed 832 yds with 8TDs and 2INTs. Look for Brees to continue on his hot streak now that Bush is done for the season.
Earnest Graham against the Falcons.
Atlanta has lost their QB's, their fans and now their head coach. This team is in a bigger mess than the Miami Dolphins are in my opinion.
Tampa to use Graham early and often. In case you haven't noticed, Graham has 4TDs since week 12.
against the Rams. Grant has been a beast the last 3 weeks. He has rushed for 351 yds with 4TDs. Amazing enough is he is averaging 6 yds a carry in those games.
St. Louis is out of the playoff picture and have given up 382 yds on the ground over the last 3 weeks with 2TDs. The Packers will look to secure a 1st round by with Grant paving the way.
Jacksonville. The Panthers haven't played well at home and face a Seahawk team that has allowed just 750 yds and 5TDs over the past 3 weeks. The big stat is the Seahawks 11INTs in those games.
Frank Gore but don't expect much more. The Bengals defense has played well over the past 3 weeks allowing just 583 yds with only 2TDs and 4INTs.
against the Broncos. Earlier in the season it seemed that everyone could run on the Broncos with ease. Over the last 3 weeks, they have cut that production down by allowing just 286 yds on the ground and 2TDs. Ron Dayne will likely be out leaving the bulk of the carries to Walker who will be the focus of the Broncos defense.
against the Panthers. Alexander hasn't been effective all year and if you haven't been using him as a RB3 then he's probably been on your bench. Even though the Panthers looked bad last week, Alexander will still perform poorly.
Carolina has given up just 328 yds and 1TD over the past 3 weeks.
Week fourteen's brew of choice was Heineken draft. As always drink responsibly and don't drink and drive.

This week has been overrun with reports surrounding new contracts for brand new superyachts to enter into construction - putting the theory of a pre-event season quiet period to rest.
Fresh on the front pages today was Benetti's new announcement that it was to begin construction on a new 66 metre superyacht for Mr John Staluppi - a well-known name in the owner's circle.
Shortly before that, CRN reported the sale of a new Superconero yacht which followed their launch of three new designs and the teaser that three more superyachts will be debuting at the Monaco Yacht Show 2015.
Admiral joined the rising fleet of announcements with a new 75 metre superyacht, the largest of the new-build contracts signed this week dubbed Project 575.
With Italy's regional new-build order book rising, The Netherlands gained yet another addition in the form of a new 66 metre order for Feadship, introduced by Northrop & Johnson.
Four large announcements in one week before the major events begin is considered an exciting week in this office, and we look forward to finding out more as and when the news emerges.


When I started practicing Kripalu Yoga more than 20 years ago, the main lessons I got were: "Accept yourself, exactly as you are today," "Don't compare," and "Don't judge—yourself or others." Those were all messages I desperately needed to hear that deeply planted seeds of healing in me.
The fact that the USA Yoga Federation has successfully registered yoga as an official sport, approved by the International Olympic Committee in 2016, pretty much blows every one of those sacred tenets to the moon.
A few years back, I went to "see" yoga at a theater in midtown Manhattan for the 2012 United States Yoga Asana Championship New York Regional edition. As a yoga junkie, I was curious—what exactly happens at a yoga competition? Who's got the loudest ujayyi? Who can fidget least in Savasana? Who can keep their bottom ribs arced in Triangle?
I saw what this actually meant over three hours, watching about 36 competitors—10 men and 26 women by my count—each perform a seven-posture set in three minutes.
Poses were judged by detailed alignment criteria for a total of 80 points, plus ineffables such as "grace" are considered. Every sequence was done in near-absolute silence, minus a churning fan. A variety of body types and a range of ages wobbled as best they could or flew through vertebrae-defying asanas. Watching the men was especially vulnerable viewing—seeing them tremble through peacock in nothing but a Speedo made me want to give them a blanket, or cry. So much poignant beauty, both athletic and unintended.
An emcee working the event kept a Friday-night party vibe going that was simultaneously awesome and inappropriate. After people struggled silently through complex poses, he jokily filled time with statements such as: "There are going to be all sorts of guys tuning in to watch this online. It's sick."
That, combined with the requirement that each competitor call out each pose before going into it—"Rabbit!"—made for downright surreal theater.
Does this all add up to something that could get yoga recognized as an Olympic sport some day? The first question being: Can you rally a huge, diverse community to a cause that makes its collective skin crawl? One bit of judging criteria is: "15 percent of total points are allotted to the overall attractiveness of the body. Choose an outfit that best enhances the body's shape and proportions." Um, I don't want to judge, but: Yuck.
The other main problem for the championships is that after a while it's pretty dull viewing, watching the same static poses, one after another. The only suspense is with the less experienced practitioners in Standing Head-to-Knee: "Will she fall?" (As one woman teetered out of the pose someone behind me actually let out a full snicker.) And most of the awe-filled moments are those that also have an ick-factor—that double-jointed, where-are-your-bones? freakish quality. And maybe that's enough. That's exactly how I don't want to roll.
And yet, I love watching teachers demo challenging poses—it gives me something to aspire to and it can be simply lovely to watch a soul intimately unfurling in asana. If the yoga Olympics movement can somehow do this for yoga—reveal prana, exhibit strength and tenderness without invoking the inherent shame of feeling like a loser for not being able to do a posture exactly like the manual or a guy named Manuel—then it has a chance to touch the planet on a massive level. If not, then, well, I'd rather spend my yoga time uncomfortably yet happily struggling to love myself as I discover my limitations and limitless freedom.
