e St. Louis Rams made a headline grabbing trade earlier this offseason, sending former starting quarterback Sam Bradford to the Philadelphia Eagles for Nick Foles along with draft pick consideration. While Foles is expected to step in for St. Louis under center, head coach Jeff Fisher revealed that the team still plans to take a new signal caller in the draft, according to NFL.com.

"It's our intention to draft [a quarterback]," Fisher said during the annual NFL owners meeting this week. "The Nick trade has no bearing over what we do in the draft."

Since the days of Kurt Warner and Marc Bulger, the quarterback position has been the Achilles heel for the Rams. Bradford was supposed to solve those issues, but he struggled with consistency, the deep ball and injuries. Foles doesn't have a completely clean record either, having missed roughly half the 2014 season with a broken collarbone. He also tossed five times as many interceptions last season as he did during his breakout 2013 campaign despite playing in five fewer games. As a result, the Rams may feel that their quarterback of the future is currently not on their roster.

However, St. Louis may not be in position to land one of the draft's top signal callers. Jameis Winston and Marcus Mariota are expected to come off the board within the first few selections, well before the Rams' pick at No. 10 overall. That could mean they plan to trade up to take their quarterback or the team has its eyes on other prospects, such as Baylor's Bryce Petty or UCLA's Brett Hundley. Perhaps Fisher's QB talk is simply a smokescreen to confuse other teams.

Either way, the fact that the head coach of St. Louis somewhat dismissed Foles as a long-term solution suggests that there's more than a little truth to his claim

St Luois Rams; Glen Dorsey

...I've been mulling over how exactly to share my views on this for months. I've been reading all of the draft talk banter back & forth. Pro & con..........good & bad.......reasons for drafting him or not drafting Glenn Dorsey. In addition to all of the other guys we're considering at No. 2. As a long time Ram fan I know what it's like for us to be drafting early. This ain't my first rodeo, & I've been here b4. However an early draft pick, not to mention the No. 2 overall pick in the draft presents it's own set of problems. I'm sure many of us still remember the Lawrence Phillips DISASTER back in 96. We picked him as the 6th overall pick that yr. and he NEVER lived up to billing. All of the crying Vermeil did over that kid, was just a waste of time & that poor draft pick cost us for yrs. Luckily for us we turned it ALL around in 1999, w/ some key signings & the drafting of Torry in the first round. But that wasn't the end (unfortunately) of our Rams making HORRIBLE selections in the first round. Heck even our GOOD selections are a mixed blessing IMHO. Torry Holt has been the BEST draft pick EVER in my recent memory. But what about big Orlando Pace? Ohhhhh yeah everyone loves our big LT, & I admit I've enjoyed watching him wear the horns over the yrs. But everyone seems to forget how much trouble he's given our organization as well. He hasn't always been the team player that many ppl think he is. Ohhh no there has been a Dark side to the BIG O, that alot of ppl have...

...John Maxwell The 360-Degree Leader: Developing Your Influence from Anywhere in the Organization (Thomas Nelson, 2005) Summarised by George Wells This summary was written as a weekly email to the staff in George’s Department. The “Some things to think about” sections are by George and were geared for the staff in their context. In this book, Maxwell deals with an important topic: not everyone is called to be the top leader in an organisation, and so we need to learn to lead from "the middle". The idea of 360-Degree Leadership is that we should be able to "lead up", influencing our leaders, "lead across", influencing our peers, and "lead down", influencing those lower down the organisational hierarchy. As usual, Maxwell gets his points across with a series of fairly brief, pithy chapters dealing with various practical issues. He introduces the first section, which deals with myths about leadership, by reflecting on the sorts of people we instinctively think of when we think of "a leader": William Wallace, Winston Churchill, Mahatma Gandhi, etc. He points out that this is misleading as "99% of all leadership occurs not from the top but from the middle of an organization". Taking this further, all of us can lead effectively, even if we're not the Vice Chancellor or the CEO. He notes that many people are good in one direction (e.g. they have influence with their boss, but alienate the people who report to them, or are great with their team, but do no get along...

Upgrading Ram

... you can’t possibly live without these new features. Oh, and some guy named Steve Jobs is dead. But me, I go above and beyond. I dig deep to find interesting articles about things that relate to this class. Why, you ask. Because I care, that’s why. The article I found is titled “Should I upgrade my RAM?” Want to read it? Sure you do. http://www.pcworld.com/article/240679/should_i_upgrade_my_ram.html This is a short and sweet article (unlike this rambling virtual paper wasting article review that you may or may not be reading). The first line of the article answers the question in a way that I fully relate to. It says, “If the money is right, then you probably should.” Next the article talks about using the system scanner tool that will tell you specifically what your system can handle and what type of RAM your board supports. This is the coolest part. I have often wondered what type of RAM is in my computer. It’s just something I usually forget very shortly after building the rig. Heck, I built this very computer less than a month ago and I can’t remember what’s in there. This is a very useful tool. The next segment of the article talks about how upgrading your RAM may not produce a significant speed upgrade if you already have a reasonable amount....

...1 The cost of one bit of RAM and one bit of hard drive storage over the years will have to based on what size of the bit of ram and on bit of hard drive storage that are you using or trying to buy. But if you were trying to figure out the price range of one bit of ram the prices may range from $20.00 to over $100.00. However One bit of hard drive storage prices may range $100.00 to over $300.00 depends on where buy them from. 2 I think 100 TB hard drive will become commercially available probably 10-15 years from now. It will be an enormous capacity for a hard drive but will be necessary for streaming media. I think network connections will improve fast rate because capacity of the 100 TB hard drives. Also with the hard drive you will be able to you will be combine HDTV PVR's, MP3 players, DVD archives, and pictures into a giant media database. Transferring that much data from one machine to another may prove to be the hardest part of all when dealing with the device. 3 The RAM that you be able to purchase for $100.00 in the next ten years I imagine would be 8 tb or more because drives are becoming even more bigger. Like for instance today you can buy a 250GB for under $60 dollars. So I’m guessing it would be more cheaper from the information I gather that the hard drive will be inexpensive to buy but depending on what size do you...

History of Ram

...The price of RAM in 1983, which was 30 years ago, was around $600 at the beginning of the year. That was for 256 KB. By the beginning of the next year the price was $517. That was for 384 KB. The prices of RAM kept going up and down. By January of 1991 the price for 1024 KB was $44.50. By January of 2000 the price for 65,536 was $99.89. The price for 8,388,608 KB is $69.99 as of November of 2013. You can see where the price has gone up and down over the years. The price of hard drives in December of 1983 was $1,895.00 for 6 MB. March of the next year for 10 MB, it was $1,699.00. The prices of the different hard drives kept going up and down. By January of 1995 for 1 GB, it was $849.00. By April of 2000 for 20.5 GB was $279.00. The price for 2 TB is $109.99 as of July of 2013. I think the 100 TB hard drive will be commercially available around the year 2034. My reason of this is because people are only allowed to get 2 TB right now in 2014. So therefore, within the next 20 years the developers that make the hard drives will be able to come out with a hard drive that has the storage capacity for a 100 TB. It will take them at least 10 years to get to where they can develop having 50 TB in one hard drive. Then in the next 10 years, they can have a general idea of what they need to do in order to make a hard drive that can 100 TB. The hard drives would be about the same length; they would need to be a little wider and thicker. That a way the hard drive can hold all of the...

However, after a few years, this program broke down and Play Pump became a failed product. But not all of the similar products have the similar trouble. The hydraulic ram pump of Green Empowerment is also a kind of pump product and it is durable and reliable. So, in order to improve the play pump, stimulating green empowerment is important. After analyzing this company and its product, the field investigation and finding appropriate cooperation companies are significantly essential to success in this business. First of all, field investigation is an important and fundamental factor in developing a product. Without this factor, the product will fail no matter how good it is. Take Play Pumps International as an example, this company had sufficient funds and a good product, but it only focused on installing them and ignored whether South Africans really needed it or not. A number of Play Pumps could not acquire enough energy to take water from an underground source because of missing field investigation, which led to a serious problem that in some places there are not sufficient kids to play merry-go-round to offer the power for driving the Play Pumps.

Farmer

...Troy Conley Comp 102-16 Professor wood March 7, 2016 To the Farmer in All of Us In this advertisement Dodge Ram is advertising their heavy duty trucks for the ideal farmer. The title of this ad is “Farmer” which is found on YouTube. This advertisement is 2:02 long and appeals to almost all age groups. This Advertisement would be shown before a video that had content of more a masculine attitude. Even though the ad appeals to all genders the audience would not see this advertisement before a makeup video. The target audience is men, woman, or anyone with an adventurous spirit. Because in the video the closing phrase that appears on the screen says, “To the Farmer in All of Us.” This appeals to everyone watching the advertisement. However, the audience does move towards people living in rural areas and places where farming is more prevalent. The need found is that if the audience buys a Dodge Ram Truck then they could be a farmer, but keep their normal day job. The “Farmer” ad for Dodge Trucks has made the consumer think that if they buy a Dodge Truck then they will automatically become a better and stronger farmer. In Dodge’s ad the colors are very moving, the ad does not have moving shot, its pictures going from picture to picture with a narrator describing the ideal farmer. The way dodge describes the ideal farmer is with the people they use. In the ad the people are hard workers who look like they are happy with what they do because they now that they are making a difference...

My Truck

...Jennifer Patraca Description July 10, 2012 I love my Dodge Ram pick-up truck. It’s over ten years old and we’ve been together now for half of that time. Five years ago I began my search for a vehicle and I knew it was going to be a long day so I dragged my mother along with me for the company. I planned on driving to car lots around the state because I knew exactly what I wanted. It was to be a black on black pick-up truck. I even had a couple of make and models in mind such as a Dodge Ram or GMC Sierra. So, this wasn’t going to be leisurely looking, this was a quest. While driving from one car lot to another all of a sudden something caught my eye off to the side of the road. It caught my attention so quickly as if it threw its shine from its glistening coat right into my eyes. I had planned on driving right by that car lot, figuring that they never had anything like what I was searching for. I immediately turned around and drove back. I couldn’t believe my eyes as I drew near. It was perfect. Sitting on top of a hill facing me was the most beautiful truck I’ve ever seen. It felt like it was sitting there just for me. The way the extra-large and wide grill protruded from the front of the truck made it mean looking. The dense head lights on either side of it looked like two wicked eyes. It was tough looking. The black paint looked as if it was still wet. The truck was massive and beefy. It was wider than tall sitting on four sturdy plump tires. The treads...
