Is the 2013 Eagles QB Competition Truly Open?
Some have questioned whether the Eagles QB competition is legitimate. Is the job truly up for grabs?

Charles LeClaire-US PRESSWIRE
One of the biggest holes on this Eagles roster, at least in terms of proven talent, is the QB position. This much is obvious. Many Eagles fans already have an opinion on who should be the starting QB in 2013.
Some say it should be Michael Vick.
"He can run Chip Kelly's scheme. Chip can find a way to make him into a better player by asking him to throw less (unlike Andy Reid did) and taking pressure off him by running the ball more with LeSean McCoy and Bryce Brown.The Eagles didn't bring him back to just sit him on the bench. Foles isn't proven."
Others will argue it should in fact be Nick Foles.
"He showed promise late last year. He's young and has potential. He can stand in the pocket and make good reads. The Eagles have to find out what they have in him before deciding to move on from him. Playing Vick would just be a waste of time because he's just a turnover machine and a bad QB."
(A very, very small minority might even argue Dennis Dixon or Trent Edwards or someone else should be the QB. The chances of that actually happening are obviously very small as of right now, but without an official starter in place, it's a non-zero chance.)
Unlike these fans, however, Chip Kelly doesn't seem to have made a decision yet. He's indicated as much in his comments:
Chip said plenty of reps to spread in practice among all of his QBs. Best man wins.
— Geoff Mosher (@GeoffMosherCSN) February 21, 2013
and from yesterday at the Scouting Combine:
I wanna coach Nick (Foles). I wanna spend time with him and see him. I've said it before, I was a big fan of the way he plays the game, his toughness, his ability to throw the ball very accurate.
He's also mentioned multiple times that Vick and Foles will be splitting first team reps.
Now, it can be argued that Chip is simply not telling the whole truth here. Maybe he secretly does have his mind made up but he's not tipping his hand. That's certainly possible, but there's nothing to actually prove that sentiment.
This is why the idea Vick will automatically be the starter from day one and that the competition is just a farce is unsubstantiated. The only evidence that supports that theory is the thought that Kelly really wants a running QB and wants nothing to do with a non-mobile QB like Foles.
Some will say that the Eagles wouldn't have restructured Vick unless they thought he was going to be the starter this year. I don't agree. Bringing Vick back on a 1 year deal where it's possible he can be cut before the season starts sure isn't a vote of confidence. It's very possible he could be the starter, but it's just not guaranteed.
And let's not forget there's still plenty of time for moves to be made in the upcoming free agency period, whether it be a signing or a trade. Maybe the Eagles draft a rookie QB and he gets thrown into the mix too.
Everything Chip is saying indicates there will be an open competition in the off-season and that's something to get excited about. If the job was just being handed to one QB, that would be concerning. No QB on this roster deserves an uncontested chance at the job. QB candidates will be fighting for a starting job and playing their hardest to earn the opportunity. May the best man win, indeed.
Time will tell if Chip sticks to these words. If he does, I'm on board with his approach.

Your choice in dental hygienist schools is more than important – it is essential to attaining the education and training required to make the most of this career choice.
In order to become a fully certified dental hygienist, you'll need to attend one of the many accredited dental hygienist schools. Thankfully, the number of schools around the nation and online has multiplied in recent years, giving you access to more options than ever before. However, you'll still need to know what to look for in dental hygienist schools in order to make the best choice possible. What should you look for in a school for dental hygienists? What sets one school apart from another?
The only way to ensure that you make the right choice in dental hygienist schools is to know what one should offer. First, look for a dental hygienist degree completion program. You'll want to be certain you are able to get your Associate's degree, Bachelor's degree or other certification. If you are re-entering school, you'll need a solid re-entry program that helps you get up to speed on the developments since you left the field.
While a wide range of dental hygienist schools offer Bachelor's and Associate's degrees, some offer more advanced courses of studies. Consider going for a Master of Science in Dental Hygiene. It can provide you with excellent footing for a higher paying dental hygienist salary and more career options, as well.
Thanks to the popularity and convenience of online education, you will find that distance learning options exist even within dental hygienist schools. However, care should be exercised when choosing an online education option. While these schools certainly allow you to set your own schedule, learn at your own pace and enjoy a more relaxed learning experience, not all of these schools are up to par.
Check that the online dental hygienist program you choose is accredited and recognized by industry leaders such as the ADA and the ADHA. Choosing a school that does not have this accreditation might leave you without the means to attain dental hygienist jobs.

Inspired Classroom, MentorIC Terms of Use
Thank you for using MentorICs!
We are pleased to help support your work as you think to S T R E T C H your brain.
MentorIC is a product of Inspired Classroom, LLC ("we," "our," or "us"). We provide a collaborative platform on the MentorIC.com website ("Site"), the MentorIC mobile app ("App"), and any associated services (collectively, the "Service"). You accept these terms of use ("Terms") by creating an account on the Service or through your use of the Service.
"You" may be a:
● "Manager" (i.e., an adult over the age of 18, a mentor, other School representative, organization, non-profit, researcher or business that subscribes to the Service with the administrative right to create, invite, manage, moderate or delete an MentorIC that may be set up using the Service);
● a "Mentor" (i.e., mentor, parent, school representative, or other educational business for which one or more Managers offers the Service to Learners);
● a "Learner" (i.e., a "User" who was invited to use the Service by a mentor or Mentor) and has been approved by a parent of legal guardian to create an account; or
● a "User" (i.e., any user of the Service, including a Manager).
If you create an account or Challenge for the Service on behalf of an entity, such as your business or employer, you represent that you have the legal authority to bind that entity to these Terms.
If you are a User (who is not a Learner), you also represent that you are at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to accept these Terms. If you are not 18, not a Learner, or do not have parental or guardian consent to access the Service, you may not use the Service.
You agree that we may provide notice to you of updated terms by posting them on the Site or make accessible through the Service. Use or continued use of our Service following notice of such updated terms indicates your consent to be bound by these terms.
1. YOUR PRIVACY
Your privacy and that of your Learners is important to us. We do not use personal information to market or advertise to your Learners, and we do not sell or share User personal data with any third party except those third party's that provide support for the Service or functions requested by you. We do use your information for certain stated purposes, such as providing and improving the Service and communicating with Mentors about MentorIC features and events. Please read the Privacy Policy, as it describes what information we collect from you, how we use that information, and the legal rights and responsibilities we have to process your information.
2.1 The Service. MentorIC allows Managers to create one or more MentorIC, each of which contains content (which may include text, video, or other materials). Managers control access to the MentorIC and may share the Challenge with anyone they like. For example, Managers can share their Challenges with Learners and guest speakers.
2.2 Account Creation. When you register for an account as a Manager or Mentor, we will ask you to sign in and provide certain information about yourself, including where you work, the age group of your Users, and your area/subject of expertise. You agree not to provide any false, inaccurate, or misleading information when registering for an account. You must keep this information up to date. You may delete your account at any time, for any reason, by following the instructions provided through the Service and then uninstalling the App.
In order to protect the integrity of the MentorIC community, at our sole discretion we reserve the right to: (a) remove any content that you upload to the Service at any time for any reason whatsoever, and (b) suspend access to the Service, terminate any account, and/or prohibit any current or future use of the Service (or any portion thereof) by any user at any time for any reason. We will not be liable to you or any third party for taking any such action(s).
2.3 Account Responsibilities. To protect your account, keep your account details and password confidential. You are solely responsible for activities that occur using your account whether you took such actions or not.
2.4 Mentors. By nature of their role, Mentors have additional responsibilities to the Learners. These responsibilities are:
(a) Must comply with our Privacy Policy;
(b) Represent and warrant that they have:
(i) the authority to consent to our collection and use of personal information from their Learners;
(ii) obtained any required parental consent, including if required verifiable parental consent under the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA");
(iii) not received any revocation of parental consent;
(iv) filed evidence of parental consent with their School administrator before inviting or compelling a learner to use the Service; and
(v) will only use the personal information provided by or otherwise collected from a Learner per all applicable laws including when recording and sharing presentations or otherwise using the Service in accordance with the purposes for which the MentorIC was created.
(c) May act as the parent's agent and for purposes of giving consent by the parent to us for the collection and use of Learner information for children below the minimum age (e.g. the minimum age for COPPA of 13 years);
(d) By enrolling a Learner or helping the Learner use the Service, the Mentor asserts to us that such consent has been obtained and agrees that the Learner's online activities are subject to these terms;
(e) Must ensure their MentorICs are compliant with all applicable laws related to disclosure of Learner information and regulations, including The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act ("FERPA");
(f) Acquired FERPA-compliant disclosure consents from the parents of children under 18, or from the Learners aged 18 and older; and
(g) Grant us a nonexclusive license to view, download, reproduce, modify, create derivative works of, distribute, and display any information provided by or collected from a Learner solely for the purposes discussed in these Terms.
Learner information is the property of and under the control of the Mentor. The MentorIC containing Learner content cannot be posted publicly by Mentors. Accordingly, Managers and Mentors assert to us they have proper consents before sharing any Learner information with third parties. If Managers invite unaffiliated guests (e.g., featured speakers) to participate on their MentorICs, they are solely responsible for obtaining parental consent for sharing Learner information with any unaffiliated guests; and obtaining clearance to use the guests' content. MentorIC has no responsibility for Managers guest activity nor any materials uploaded through the Service.

Questions about possession, control, or transfer of Learner-generated User Content, including the review and correction by a Learner, parent, or legal guardian of a Learner's personal information, should be directed to the Mentor. Your interactions with other Users are solely between you and such Users, and we will not be responsible for any loss or damage incurred as the result of any such interactions. MentorIC does not guarantee any long-term storage of your User Content.

I was born in Rome, GA, and raised in Trion, Pennville, and Summerville, GA After many years as a road musician and earning three degrees–A.S., B.A., M.A., I taught English in three colleges, two of them in Georgia, after returning to my roots. I now live and write in a "holler" alongside the Chattahoochee National Forest. I wrote two published books, Pennies on the Tracks (fiction–short stories) and Glass Cuts the Shadow (poetry). I also received writing awards and recognition: Pulitzer Prize contender, Pushcart Prize Nominee, Associated Writing Programs Nominee, and national ADDY awards for advertising copywriting, including First Place in WI, MN, ND, and SD. Others are awards for songwriting from the American Song Festival and various poetry and essay awards. I edited two college newspapers, the Centron and the Mirror. I now write a lot of allegorical poetry, and I write the ongoing Grammar Nudge as a refresher for advanced writers and a little push for beginners. Yes, I am a Southern writer, and there is even a "Dead Mule" in my story "Winesaps" in my book Pennies on the Tracks.

In September 2013, we informed you about HUBLOT being appointed Official Timekeeper and Official Watch of French 1 champions, Paris Saint-Germain.
This week Hublot unveiled the watch that will embody their partnership with PSG, in the form of the new King Power Paris Saint-Germain, that using blue and red, pays tribute to the official colours of the club. Power equipped with a chronograph movement featuring two chronograph hands positioned in the centre, in addition to the hour and minute hands. This makes for better readability – quicker and more efficient. The wearer can keep track of both hands at a glance; the first indicates the seconds, and the other hand, specially developed for football, indicates the time elapsed out of the 45 mins in each half.
With a sapphire dial, the movement – here in an Aero Bang version – features exquisite new skeleton working to reveal even more of the working parts of the watch and its fine mechanics. The topside retains only the material necessary for it to function. This is coated with black ruthenium for a beautiful overall effect of homogeneity, and clearer reading. A minute track, a time counter at 9 o'clock and a date window at 4 o'clock all feature on the predominantly blue piece, which is stamped with the famous Parisian emblem incorporating the Eiffel Tower.
The chronograph is available in a limited edition of just 200 numbered pieces. Each watch comes with a certificate guaranteeing its authenticity and an official Paris Saint-Germain shirt signed by all the players.
The King Power Paris Saint-Germain was launched in the presence of players Gregory Van Der Wiel, Yohan Cabaye, Thiago Silva, Edinson Cavani and Salvatore Sirigu, who were invited to take part in a Hublot Watch Academy workshop, with assistance from a professional watchmaker.

"Despite its flaws it's a masterfully acted and a smart indie adult film, a mature comedy that rarely gets made anymore by the business-minded big studios."
A bittersweet and complex character-driven dramedy about turmoil in a couple's life, that's perhaps too cleverly written and directed by Tamara Jenkins ("The Savages"/"Slums of Beverly Hills").
It's her first film in eleven years, and is about the frantic relationship between the fortysomething married arty-bourgeois East Village city dwellers Rachel Biegler (Kathryn Hahn) and Richard Grimes (Paul Giamatti). He's a former theater director-turned pickle entrepreneur; she's a noted playwright and writer. The infertile couple are eager to have a child and become parents, and must explore the world of adoption and medically assisted reproduction to get a baby. They also must deal with money problems, and get a loan from his suburban dentist brother Dr. Charlie Grimes (John Carroll Lynch).The hectic film relays the couple's stress, as they get involved in such things as embryo storage, egg retrieval, hormone injections, medication, adoption scams, long waits in crowded waiting rooms, unhelpful social workers,and other frustrating pursuits to get a baby. For the first half of the film we tail them around town, as they experience many awkward moments in their pursuit. Besides the emotional empathy felt for the couple, there's the deadpan comedy and satirical one-liners related to their ticklish situation. But their situation takes an upturn (as does the film) with the appearance of the free-spirit Sadie (Kayli Carter), Richard's aspiring-writer step-niece who dropped out of Bard, to the dismay of her nurturing mother Cynthia (Molly Shannon) and stepfather Dr. Charlie Grimes. Sadie tells her folks she wants to come live with her "Uncle Cool" in New York City and make her move in the art world. She's also tells the infertile couple she's receptive to being a potential egg donor.
Despite its flaws it's a masterfully acted and a smart indie adult film, a mature comedy that rarely gets made anymore by the business-minded big studios. So what if it doesn't know how to close the deal and beats its plot into submission with too many false endings and an ambiguous conclusion that fails to do it justice, it's still better than a fair share of the recent sitcom films.

TRANSITION CASE STORY: LOHBRUNNER COMMUNITY FARM
Posted by Darcy Smith on March 16, 2021
THE COMBINED POWER OF CO-OPS AND TRUSTS at LOHBRUNNER COMMUNITY FARM, Vancouver Island, B.C.
When community, co-ops and land trusts come together to save a piece of land, amazing things happen! This is the story of a farm that was saved by community support—and will be stewarded into the future by a co-operative.
Located in Langford on Southern Vancouver Island, Lohbrunner Community Farm is a 13-acre farm held in trust by FarmFolk CityFolk (FFCF), and managed by a co-operative of farmers and community members.
The original farm homestead was an oasis of mixed fields, forest and wetlands tucked away in an otherwise very developed region. Norma Lohbrunner and her husband Joseph had farmed and cared for the land since 1945, and were committed to ensuring the land was protected from development and farmed beyond their own lifetimes.
Norma generously donated the land to The Land Conservancy (TLC) in 2007, with the provision that she would continue to live there while a young farmer took over production. Ian King, a local farmer, leased the land from TLC and he and Norma became good friends while they shared the land.
When Ian eventually moved on from the farm, it lay fallow. Scott Harris, the land manager at TLC, seeing the potential of the underutilized land, pulled together a group of friends to help take care of the property and grow food for themselves and their families while it was not leased to a farmer.
This group of three to four families grew on the land for a few years before they received word that TLC was unfortunately in a position of having to divest of the land. While TLC wanted to keep the land in trust, the sale was court-ordered and there were very few options. The wetland portion of the property was transferred to The Nature Conservancy, but because The Nature Conservancy's mandate is to protect natural ecosystems, they were not able to take the farmed portion of the land. To prevent the farmland from being put up for sale, the group decided to buy the land as a co-op.
They reached out to Heather Pritchard, a wealth of knowledge and experience in farm co-ops. She lives at and worked to develop Fraser Common Farm & Glorious Organics in Langley, BC, and supports existing community farms and the development of new ones. Heather was also a co-founder of FFCF, and was working for them at the time managing their Community Farms Program. FFCF has in its mandate the ability to acquire farmland, so Heather proposed to the group that they try to fundraise to have the land transferred from TLC to FFCF to protect it in trust there, and for a co-op to be developed to manage the farm on the ground.
As the group had only reached out to Heather 10 days before the farmland was slated to be put on the market, the timeline was very tight. Heather called everyone she knew who might be able to support and was able to raise the funds needed to purchase the land. FFCF was supported with a donation from Vancity Community Foundation to pay for the significant legal and administrative costs associated with the land transfer, and the land was safe.
Heather worked closely with the group to develop a community farm co-operative model to manage the land after it had been transferred to FFCF, which would become known as Lohbrunner Community Farm Co-op (LCFC).
LCFC was established with high value placed on the importance that the group be diverse, not just composed of farmers, and inclusive of the broader community. The co-op recognizes the importance of having different voices, values and skill sets as part of the group to balance community and farming. This diversity "challenges the attitude that land is about production (a colonial mindset) and that only those who can farm it have value is very problematic. All the relationships—people, wildlife, trees and everything—are what makes it work." Heather says. "The coop started with a community sense of stewarding the land, not just farming. Farming is a part of it but certainly not all."
Once LCFC was developed, the members soon decided that they wanted to lease space to young farmers to run farm businesses and grow food for the local community. New farmer Ariella Falkowski joined LCFC when it had just been formed in the spring of 2017, after connecting with members at a YA event. Ariella had been farming for six years on various small farms throughout B.C., and was keen to start her own farming operation on leased land. She was drawn to farm at Lohbrunner because of the longer-term security leasing from a trust seemed to offer, relative to a potentially less secure lease on private land.
When Ariella joined LCFC, the co-op did not yet have a lease with FFCF to officially secure their access to the land. Ariella took a leap of faith and dove into life at Lohbrunner, trusting a group of people she had just met, with the intention of writing a lease in that first season as they all figured out how the agreements would be structured. Ariella and other members of LFCF spent that first year turning three acres of underutilized hayfield into veggie fields, and also erecting essential deer fencing.
As of spring 2021, Ariella's farm, Sweet Acres Farm, is entering its fourth year of a five-year term with LCFC. Leases are currently set up to rollover into a new five-year lease at the end of every term, pending a review involving both LCFC and the leasing farmer. Ariella loves having autonomy to run her own farm business independently, while also being a part of a supportive, broader co-operative farming community: "there are a lot of skilled and generous people around to help out. In what can be an isolating and challenging field of work, the community element of a coop is great."
All individuals who farm at Lohbrunner must be members of LCFC, and have to be approved by consensus by members of the co-op board in order to join. As a co-op member, Ariella values being able to bring her voice to the table in decisions that are made for the farm as a whole. Although sometimes decision-making as a group can take longer than they would otherwise, Ariella finds that ultimately the decisions end up being far stronger and better thought out than what she imagines would be possible as individuals. The group, with all of their various skills and perspectives, is far stronger than the sum of its parts.
While it can be difficult to navigate who is going to be responsible for bigger expenses on the farm, as ultimately there is no landowner who would see bigger investments as adding values to the property, as a registered non-profit organization, LCFC benefits from the ability to apply for grants for infrastructure projects and property improvements that would be inaccessible to private landowners. A new irrigation system was installed at the farm in the spring of 2020 thanks to a grant.
In considering whether farming in a co-op is the right fit, Ariella says, "things take more time in a co-op, and there are a lot of meetings. You have to decide if that's something you are willing to put your energy into. Sometimes it's hard and a long process to make decisions but the end result is often way better than what I could have done on my own." This co-operative model of land stewardship offers a valuable solution to problems of land access for generations of farmers now and into the future.
Ariella has made the difficult choice to move on to different farming adventures in 2022 that will further expand her farming skills, meaning that LCFC will be seeking a new farmer to lease land starting in 2022. "Lohbrunner is really a wonderful place to farm," states Ariella, "and the coop has accomplished so much in the last four years. I witnessed (and was a part of!) seeing this land become much more productive in terms of food produced, saw major infrastructure improvements that support farming ventures, saw the introduction of farm-based education programming, and also have witnessed the groundswell of support from the surrounding community as the farm becomes more well known. This is an exciting time to get involved with LCFC, as the potential of this farm in this community is really beginning to show."

The TITANS (2018) Have Found Their Beast Boy!
By Fabio Castelblanco
After months of speculation, the final member of the TITANS (2018) roster has been filled. And, by none other than Asian-American actor Ryan Potter (BIG HERO SIX and SUPAH NINJAS)! Ever since Geoff Johns confirmed Beast Boy's appearance in the show, fans have been anxious to know who would play him.

Ryan Potter's Previous Roles
Fans of the live-action Nickelodeon show SUPAH NINJAS (2011-2013) will recall Ryan Potter playing the leading role of Mike Fukanaga. In that show, Potter displayed his vast array of martial art talents that he acquired from training in White Tiger Kung Fu.
However, most people will recognize Ryan Potter for his role as Hiro Hamada in Disney's animated Marvel film BIG HERO SIX (2014). Potter will continue to voice the character in the animated show based on the movie, which follows the adventures of Hiro, Baymax, and their friends.

Despite Potter's role as a Marvel character, he has displayed interest in DC comics in the past. In the fall of 2016, he campaigned for the role of Tim Drake in the DCEU. He even made a short video showing off his skills as a fighter.
It was quick video, but it convinced many fans that Potter could work as Robin alongside Batman. He ended the video calling out to Ben Affleck on how Batman needs a Robin.
TITANS (2018): Ryan Potter as Beast Boy
Even though Potter will not play Robin, he will be playing Teen Titan fan-favorite Beast Boy. The past incarnations of Beast Boy typically feature him as the comic relief character of the group. Ryan Potter has not had any role which could be categorized as comedic.
Although his character of Mike Fukanaga on SUPAH NINJAS was amusing, it was mostly because of his social awkwardness. Beast Boy's humor derives from cheesy one-liners that typically make fans either laugh out loud or groan by how cringe-worthy they are. Only time will tell how successful Ryan Potter will be in portraying this kind of character. But, I, for one, am confident in his ability as an actor.
Geoff Johns' TITANS Preview And Everything We Know
Pros & Cons: The Possible Changes To Beast Boy's Character
If I had any concern about this casting choice, it would be Potter's age. At the age of 22, he will not be the youngest member of the team. Even though there are incarnations of the Titans in which Beast Boy is not the youngest member, the ones where Beast Boy is the youngest member are my favorite.
Beast Boy's personality is akin to a little brother, someone who tries a bit too hard to be cool. Also with the casting of 13-year-old actor Teagan Croft as Raven, this casting choice of Ryan Potter eliminates any romantic story between the two. Beast Boy was one of my favorite characters on the Teen Titans TV show on Cartoon Network in the early 2000s.
I am excited to see how Ryan Potter brings this classic character to life once TITANS airs on the DC streaming network. There is not a confirmed date as to when the show or the streaming service will be released, but fans should expect it in early 2018.
What do you think about this casting choice? Do you like it or would you have picked someone else?
