john hughes

  • Question:-How can I contact the family of John Hughes?
    I am directing a community theatre production of John Hughes' "The Breakfast Club." All of our shows proceeds are donated to charity and I want to contact his family so that 1) they know we are performing his work 2) to find a charity that John Hughes took part in.

    Any help in contacting them is appreciated. Thank you!

  • Question:-Academy-Awards 2010, what is your take on a John Hughes tribute?
    I just recently read that there are plans on a huge Hughes tribute. Some actors that worked with him are planning to make some sort of parody, better, acknowledge the talent that was John Hughes. Who and what would you like to happen? For instance, I'm hoping for a short "The Breakfast Club" meets "Sixteen Candles" parody with some old and new actors. I just want to see Molly Ringwald! I do.

    Answer:-I don't think he deserves it. Then again, the Oscars is all about Hollywood rewarding themselves.

    Answer:-If I have luggage, I prefer to get a cart and just walk over. I don't like having to lug heavy bags on and off the shuttle bus. The walk is an easy stroll as long as you have a cart. If I don't have luggage, then I start walking and jump on the shuttle if I see it coming.
  • Question:-What's the fastest way to reach Tom Bradley International terminal LAX from terminal 7 or 8?
    Will taking the taxi the only quickest way to reach TBIT.

    I can't seem to find a definite answer, but the answer seems to be "yes." I need to pick someone up at a baggage claim and I know their flight from Tokyo arrives at Tom Bradley. The only reason why I doubt this answer would be because I could have sworn my baggage terminal was at Terminal 1 when I came back from Japan on Singapore Airlines this past March. I could just be losing my mind.

    Answer:-Singapore Airlines arrives and departs from the Tom Bradley International Terminal. Terminal 1 is for Southwest and US Airways flights. Therefore go and pick-up your friend at the International Terminal.

  • Question:-Will the Titans of Tuscaloosa and Tallahassee be playing each other for the BCS National Championship?
    Nick Saban Jimbo Fisher, I think, will be squaring off in the Superdome come January. The Titan of Tuscaloosa versus the Titan of Tallahassee.

    It will be physical. It will nasty. It will be college football's greatest dynasties squaring off for all the marbles.

    I will be there.

  • Question:-I might be moving to either Tuscaloosa or Birmingham Alabama, which is the best place to live?
    I am single working woman with eldery parents whom live with me. I was curious to what area in and around Tuscaloosa/Birmingham would be a good place to live. How is the climate in both?
    We currently live in Mid Missouri. Brrrrrrrr.

    Answer:-I recommend one of the municipalities outside of the Birmingham city limits -- Vestavia Hills, Hoover, Mountain Brook to the south or Gardendale, Fultondale, Mount Olive to the north -- stay away from the downtown area of the city -- it's not the safest place to be or live, and there is NO place to shop. I live in Hoover, which is about 10 miles south of downtown, and I work downtown.

    I've never even been to Tuscaloosa even though I've lived here now for 18 years. I do know it's a college town. The University of Alabama is there.

    The climate is typical southeastern US -- it's HOT in the summer, and just right in the spring, fall and winter.

    I was born in Birmingham, grew up in Ft. Lauderdale, and moved back to Birmingham in 1990.

    I live in Tuscaloosa and need to find a place to wash my car, I have all the cleaning equipment but the apartment I live in doesn't have any water outlets to use. Is there any where I can go and wash it?
    I'm a male.

    Answer:-I would go to one of the local car washes here in town. I use the one at 5 points and the one behind Powell's gas station at Hargrove Rd. and Kicker Rd.
    This site has a list of automotive detailing locations around town.

    Answer:-Miami, Fl or Miami, Ohio? Either way I think you'll like T-town. I grew up there as a child and have come back to the area after retirement. It's really grown and has just opened a big amphitheater. As for apartments....I'm sure you can find something you'll like....in whatever price range you need.

  • Question:-Can I get from the Birmingham, Alabama airport to Tuscaloosa via public transportation?
    When I go to Alabama next month, I'm flying into the Birmingham airport, and then I need to get to the university in Tuscaloosa. I know there are shuttles, but they cost a ton--ditto on taxis--so I'm hoping I can find a bus from Birmingham to Tuscaloosa. Does anyone know of such a bus, and also how I can get from the airport to the bus station?

    Answer:-No, but train tickets from Birmingham to Tuscaloosa are about $17.00 & bus tickets are about $10.00 to $16.00. Both are about an hour ride. It's a lot cheaper than the taxi & shuttle services. The Tuscaloosa Transit Authority has Trolleys on fixed routes for $1.00 & 20¢ transfers. Hope this helps.

  • Question:-What happened to the USC football program?
    i heard recently that the USC football team has gotten into trouble or something? like they can't go to the rose bowl for like 5 years? whats the story behind this?

    Answer:-Two Words.........Reggie Bush.

    He took money among other things while he was at USC and they stripped them of their 2004 National Championships and gave them a 2 year Bowl ban. Here is more about it below.


    A 2006 report suggested that Reggie Bush and his family may have received gifts in violation of NCAA amateurism policies.[21] USC and Bush denied any improper benefits. In 2009, the NCAA combined its investigations of Bush with an investigation into alleged improper benefits given to former USC basketball player O.J. Mayo into a single probe of the Trojans' athletic program.[22] In advance of possible sanctions by the NCAA, USC self-imposed sanctions on its basketball team, including a postseason ban in 2010 and a reduction in scholarships, among other penalties.[23] In June 2010, after a four-year investigation, the NCAA imposed sanctions against the Trojan football program for a "lack of institutional control," including a public reprimand and censure, a 2-year postseason ban, a loss of 30 scholarships over three years, and a vacation of all wins in which Reggie Bush participated as an ineligible player, including the 2005 Orange Bowl, where the Trojans won the BCS National Championship.[24] According to BCS Executive Director Bill Hancock, a committee will decide whether to vacate USC's 2004 BCS Championship, but only after the NCAA has heard USC's appeals, however, USC will still retain their AP national championship.[25] It is possible that Bush's 2005 Heisman Trophy will also be vacated, if determined necessary by vote of the Downtown Athletic Club. Bush stated that he was "disappointed" by the NCAA's ruling,[26] and the university has filed an appeal of the sanctions.[7] On July 20, 2010, incoming USC president Max Nikias stated that the school would remove jerseys and murals displayed in Bush's honor from its facilities, and would return the school's copy of Bush's Heisman Trophy.[27]
  • Question:-What is the song that the USC football team comes out of the tunnel to?
    I recently went to the USC vs. Ohio game and when i was there the SC football team came running out of the tunnel to an awesome rap song... i know ive heard it before i just cant remember who its by? Can anyone help me?

    Answer:-To the guy above me ^^^, I wouldn't be admitting your a Bruins fan after that beatdown you got the other day. Anyway, their right.
  • Question:-How do you work at a USC football game?
    When I have gone to USC Trojan Football games, some of the concession stands have been run by sports teams other groups. It seems like a great fund raising idea. How would I go about getting my team to work at one of these stands?

    Answer:-give them money to hire you cuz they nedd some of it back they gaave to reggie bush and oj mayo. then theyll hire you.
  • Question:-What are my best options to get from LAX to the Colisuem for a USC football game?
    I'm flying into LAX on Sept. 10 to watch the UTES vs. USC football game. Do they have shuttles to the games from the airport, would a taxi cost me a small fortune? Any recommendations? What is the best way to get to the game? I will be going directly back to the airport after the game to catch a flight, what time frame can I expect. Thanks!

    Answer:-I would check into shuttle services to and from the airport. Getting a taxi will probably cost you a good deal of money..
  • Question:-Anybody have any information about the 3 year Federal investigation into USC football and basketball program?
    I am shocked about this. USC has such high standards. Any info about why the Feds would want to investigate such a awesome storied progam in both FOOTBALL AN BASKETBALL. They must of missed the Halo of the campus.

    Answer:-HAHA!!! ZINGER THAT WAS HILARIOUS!

    How are you shocked about USC being investigated?? For one look at their track record. This has come up numerous times with these sports in the last few years. The school is expected to win, so wouldn't surprise me if you have boosters demanding that the school better perform or else.....type mentality. So alot of pressure is on these coaches to perform. There have been multiple whistle blowers with this school paying athletes to join the program (have all been speculation) but it's enough for an open investigation.

    I'm going to laugh my butt off if this school has multiple infractions put on them for paying athletes to play for the school. Ah that'll be great.

    *** Also reported on the news this morning that the guy they went to who got Mayo to play for USC was paid $1,000.00.
  • Question:-Where is the best place to park for a USC football game?
    When going to a USC football game where is the best place to park that is close to the stadium? Price does not really matter. Thanks!

    Answer:-Anywhere. USC provides buses for those who park further away from the stadium. Or you can pay mexicans $20 to park at their house. There is also parking at the staple center.

    Fight ON!!

    Root for USC

    Fight On for ol' SC
    Our men Fight On to victory.
    Our Alma Mater dear,
    looks up to you
    Fight On and win
    For ol' SC
    Fight On to victory
    Fight On
  • Question:-Where can I find the 1977 USC Football Team Roster?

    Answer:-If he was a starter, then he got a letter. If he got a letter you can go to this website......

    http://usctrojans.cstv.com/sports/m-footbl/usc-m-footbl-body.html

peru earthquake

  • Question:-Anyone know where I can find list of deaths in Peru earthquake?

    Hope this helps
  • Question:-Peru had an earthquake on August 16th,would that cause the northern fault lines in California to rupture?
    I'm no scientist, but because Peru had an earthquake, would that put more pressure on the fault lines north, up the coast and eventually cause major earthquakes on the coast of California? Didn't California have a small earthquake just recently and wasn't there predictions of a major earthquake on the San Andreas Fault line made on CNN just a few days ago? Shouldn't people be made more aware of this possibility?

    Answer:-Not really, the earthquake is a relieving of the pressure on an area of the fault, it shouldn't have a major effect on other areas.

    Generally a part of the fault line which is subject to Earthquakes, but has not had one for years is most at risk. There are instances where a fault has been dormant for a long time {Indonesia recently} and it is subject to several fairly major shocks.However when the stress is relieved is not predictable, although sometimes pre-shocks are detected.

    In summary; go move to the center of a tectonic plate.
  • Question:-How many deaths exactly happened in the Peru earthquake on July 18th?
    I was just wondering, cause I used to live near there so it kinda worried me how hard it struck. So, yeah.

    Answer:-510 so far

    Answer:-Between 8-12 hours.
  • Question:-Who else was in the earthquake in Peru in august 07?
    Just wondering?

    I was in the province of Ica (epicenter of the quake)

    How did you feel?

    And also do you sometimes feel like the ground is shaking even when its not?

    Answer:-no one that i know..
  • Question:-Do you think that the second collapse of the mine in Utah had anything to with the earthquake in Peru?
    And if so what do you think is going on with the stability of the earth itself?
    Just wanted to make sure everyone realizes that Peru is on the same planet as Utah!!!

    Answer:-Aftershocks in an unstable mine are not tectonic in nature (earth crust moving). Not enough energy from the Peru quake would make it that far north, or else it would have triggered a lot of quakes in Cali as well.

    I have a theory that the melting ice caps are redistributing such a large mass of water around the planet that the poles are undergoing tectonic rebound, causing stress at plate boundaries around the world. IT'S aTHEORY (for whoever wishes to argue the point) but I think I am going to watch quake frequency for the next few years.
  • Question:-How do I find orphans from The Huaraz Earthquake of 1970, in Peru? Where would I find a list?
    My husband had family living in Yungay or Huaraz in 1970. They never found his cousins, children who may have been at the Circus during the Earthquake and eventual landslide. Does anyone know who would have a list of survivors from this disaster? Alot of the children were sent to Europe for adoption, but I don't know where to. Are there any good websites for this kind of thing?

    Answer:-It is very difficult to access to a list of orphans (if there is actually one) The only thing I can think of is to actually visit Yungay (the new town) and start asking the local authorities. Just remember that when the earthquake happened, the government was run by militars who may or may not have sent the orphans omewhere else. The best thing would be to contact people who lived there at the time, and local authorities now in Yungay or in Huaraz. Websites? I dont think so, these things are very delictae to post online.
    Good luck!
  • Question:-Do you think that the second collapse of the mine in Utah had anything to do with the earthquake in Peru?
    And if so what do you think is going to happen to the stability of the earth itself?
    Just wanted to make sure that everyone does realize that Peru is in the same planet as Utah!!!
    They have been calling it a sizemic bump on the news.

    Answer:-Possibly, the tectonic plates are very large, I dont hink Utah felt any seismic waves though, so I dont think that is the cause of the mine collapse.
  • Question:-If you could prevent either an earthquake in Peru that would kill 40,000 people,...?
    a crash at your local airport that would kill 200 people, or an automobile accident that would kill an acquaintance of yours, which would you choose?

    Answer:-Wow that's really tough. I would never want to kill anybody I know or have anything happen to them, so I'd have to go with that, number "3" so to say.

    Not that I don't care about Peru or the local airport, but if they are people I don't really know and never met what does it have to do with me or my loved ones? You don't know if the people at the local airport were unkind or even people who destroyed themselves and I don't live in Peru.

daylight savings 2011

  • Question:-What day and time do I have to change my clocks at for Daylight Savings 2011?
    I think it's March 13 at 2 a.m. Is this right? And do we set the clock earlier or later? HELP PLEASE!!! :D
    I am actually going on a road trip and I have to be at the bus for 3 a.m. xD

    Answer:-Why don't you just change them some time Sunday afternoon. It's not like you have to get up and do it at 2 o'clock in the morning.
  • Question:-Did daylight savings time start earlier in 2011 in the USA?
    It wasn't even spring yet.

    Answer:-I live in Indiana. Until the past few years, we stayed on the same time year-round. I think that last year -- or possibly the year before -- we went on DST in March instead of April as a way of conserving energy. (Don't ask me how!?!) I think the time-change in March has just 'stuck!' Instead of in April, we 'spring ahead' in March!

    Actually, I like the longer days -- light later in the evening.

    DST is still a hot topic in Indiana! Lots of folks think it is unnatural! If I had just one penny for every hour our state legislature has fussed over whether or not to go with DST, I would be ONE RICH LADY!

  • Question:-Daylight Savings Time question?
    The clocks change on March 13th 2011 this year (that's Sunday night at 2am) so does this mean we put the clocks forward or back? Do we lose or gain sleep? Does it get darker faster or slower?
    So if it's 8pm what time will it be on march 13th?

    Answer:-at 2am it will be 3am. we "spring" forward during the spring.
  • Question:-If Daylight "Savings"Time is going to be 8 months of the year why even change it back anymore?
    This is stupid and makes no sense its dark in the mornings and we end up using electricity anyways so nothing is 'saved".

    Answer:-Your question prompted me to look the history of daylight savings time up on the internet. According to any of the studies that have been done around the globe, most people use 1% more energy in the evening than in the morning. While 1% doesn't seem like much, collectively the savings amounts to quite a bit. That's the rational behind the extension. But I'm with you. I'd just as soon do it all year long rather than having to adjust to a time changes twice a year.

daylight savings 2011

  • Question:-What day and time do I have to change my clocks at for Daylight Savings 2011?
    I think it's March 13 at 2 a.m. Is this right? And do we set the clock earlier or later? HELP PLEASE!!! :D
    I am actually going on a road trip and I have to be at the bus for 3 a.m. xD

    Answer:-Why don't you just change them some time Sunday afternoon. It's not like you have to get up and do it at 2 o'clock in the morning.
  • Question:-Did daylight savings time start earlier in 2011 in the USA?
    It wasn't even spring yet.

    Answer:-I live in Indiana. Until the past few years, we stayed on the same time year-round. I think that last year -- or possibly the year before -- we went on DST in March instead of April as a way of conserving energy. (Don't ask me how!?!) I think the time-change in March has just 'stuck!' Instead of in April, we 'spring ahead' in March!

    Actually, I like the longer days -- light later in the evening.

    DST is still a hot topic in Indiana! Lots of folks think it is unnatural! If I had just one penny for every hour our state legislature has fussed over whether or not to go with DST, I would be ONE RICH LADY!
  • Question:-Will the flights from EMA airport,UK leave at revised daylight savings time on 30th Oct 2011?
    I have a flight at 10:30AM on 30th Oct 2011 from East Midlands Airport, UK. Can somebody say/confirm that the flight will depart with the new revised daylight settings assuming the clock will change at 2AM (about 8 hrs before the flight departs)?

    There's nothing mentioned in the flight ticket/itinerary - however, I just wanted to be sure of the time so that I don't miss the flight.

oakland

  • Question:-How hard is it to become an Oakland Police officer without college?
    Im applying to be an oakland police officer but i only have 9 college units. How tough will it be? I already passed the POST test for San Mateo and waived it for Oakland so if I pass the rest of the testing will college be something that stops me from getting the job. I would go but I live alone and have to pay my bills therefore college is not an option at the moment. I have no criminal record nor traffic tickets.

    Answer:-it should'nt be hard at all having a collage degree in law\law enforcement simply helps your advancement rate. you could start higher than a basic street position.
  • Question:-What is up with the people of Oakland lauding a killer/rapist for shooting dead 4 cops?
    Why isn't Sharpton or Jackson in Oakland trying to quell the violence against the police? They are there whenever a policeman shoots a felon to protect that felon's rights.

    Answer:-Isn't it ironic? Every summer, in every black ghetto in the country, black people go screaming to the mayors and police chiefs demanding MORE police presence in their neighborhoods. Why? Because black criminals prey on black residents, and they want protection.
    BTW, It isn't white people going into those rat-infested areas robbing old ladies and raping young girls. It's black criminals.
    Then, the same people who demanded MORE police once again scream when the police actually do their jobs and crack down on the gang-bangers, drug dealers, and rapists. Why? They claim "racism", because the police are "singling out" black criminals.
    So, a rapist/convicted felon/drug dealer/parole violator gets pulled over and shoots two cops point blank, then goes on to kill two more- and the crowd goes wild. They mock the police, they cheer for their murders, and they make a worthless, violent, poor excuse for a human being into a hero.
    Sharpton and Jackson may show up. If they do, however, it will be in support of the thugs, not in support of what's right. They wouldn't dare criticize their constituents. They never criticize the black violence, they only blame it on racism.
    And race relations get set back another 10 years...
  • Question:-What is the minumun GPA to enter Oakland university?

  • Question:-What do people think of the new Oakland Airport Southwest Air terminal?
    Recently I flew into Oakland on Southwest and was surprised to see the new food concessions. Oakland is becoming a mini SFO.

    Do people still prefer SFO over Oakland?

    Answer:-It depends on where you live and where you're flying to, if you live closer to the Oakland Airport than SFO and they offer a flight to your destination, then use the Oakland Airport. SFO is a larger airport and offers more flights to more destinations, especially international flights. I used to live on the Peninsula, and flying out of Oakland was very inconvenient for me and never once used the Oakland Airport. I lived 15 minutes from SFO, why drive another 30 minutes each way when I didn't have to?
  • Question:-When is the Oakland Officers Killed in the Line of Duty furnerals going to be?
    In Oakland California four officers died from gunshots from a parolee! When is the funerals and is there a trust fund established?

    Answer:-It's Friday, March 27th at 0900. Parking lots open at 0730.

  • Question:-How do i figure out my routing number for oakland county credit union?
    I need to find out what my routing number is for my pay pal account. I have already gone to the oakland county credit union website and i can't seem to find anything there.

    Answer:-Do you have a check? If so starting on the left hand side the routing number is the first 9 digits at the bottom of the check. If you don't have a check call your local branch and they can give you the number.
  • Question:-What are the safe and affordable neighborhoods in and near Oakland CA?
    I'm moving from Cambridge MA to Oakland CA very soon for job but am not very familiar with the area. I pay abut $1500 a month now for rent and would like to find something along the same lines for a place in Oakland. I've heard Oakland can be a little rough with crime and would like to avoid the worst areas. I've heard Piedmont, Lake Merritt, Rockridge, Montclair are all nice areas. Any other good neighborhoods? What are the places to avoid? Thanks in advance!

    Answer:-That is, no other good place in Oakland, avoid east and west oakland, you can easily find 1bedroom apartment for $1500, there are many apts in rockridge and lake merrit area.
  • Question:-How do you get from Santa Cruz to Oakland, California via public transportation?
    My boyfriend and I are thinking about going to go see AC/DC when they play in Oakland, but we live in the Santa Cruz area and neither of us can drive.

    We're not sure if a parent can drive us, so what is an easy way to get from either Watsonville or Santa Cruz to Oakland?

    Answer:-city bus or bart.

  • Question:-How many undocumented immigrants live in Oakland, California?
    There's an estimate of 88,000 in the entire Alameda County. How many in Oakland? Any one have any information on this? It is a sanctuary city, so i didn't think finding numbers on this group would be hard. I've called several places but no luck.

    Answer:-
  • Question:-What are some nice suburbs of Oakland with good schools?
    There is a very slim chance that I might end up in an office in Oakland. If so, any recommendations for neighborhoods with good schools where the average home isn't much more than half a million dollars?

    Thanks.

    Answer:-Piedmont is good but very expensive. Oakland Hills neighborhoods have great schools like Chabot, Hillcrest, & Thornhill(elementary schools). People try to cram into these areas to be in the school districts. You'd be hard pressed to find a house less than half a million, but there are condos that are. The real "towns" that fall in your financial category are San Leandro, Castro Valley, Hayward, El Cerrito. The problem is the schools aren't that great. Better than Oakland, but that unfortunately, isn't saying much. Basically, where the public schools are good the property values are high. You might have to compromise one or the other a little bit. Alameda is a consideration, that might be your best bet.

  • Question:-How can I occupy a 6 year old on a 7 hour layover in Oakland Airport, California?
    We won't be leaving the airport due to crime and the hassel of going through security again, so any suggestions on how to keep a little kid happy. Does anyone know if there are kiddie areas within the airport? Thanks and all answers are greatly appreciated!

    Answer:-Everyone hates layovers even kids, here are some helpful hints.
    Take portable games, like Sorry, Life, and Connect Four. They sell them cheap at places like Wal-Mart and Target. They come in very handy on the flight to. If you have a portable DVD player you can always bring that just make sure that you have extra batteries. Handle held video games are always fun, you can find some pretty cheap ones at the places above. What about books? Get some new books that the family can read together. Crayons, paper and coloring books are wonderful, again good to use in flight too!!! Be sure to pack some snacks, crackers, fruit roll ups, chips, anything small, in bags and does not have to stay cold is good!
    Make up scavenger hunt cards for the airport. Put things on them like a person wearing pink, a pilot, tickets ect... who ever gets the most wins. You can walk around and do this game or you can even make up Bingo cards to do in your area if you have too much luggage. Only takes a few minutes to make them up, but hey you can get an hour or two out of them!
    Start the story game, someone in the family starts the story and the rest have to finish it. You can go on forever.
    Play the I Spy Game....you know I spy something blue, and so on.
    Twenty questions is always fun.
    Hangman, Tic Tac Toe, Uno Cards, Go Fish, Old Maid. Fun for the whole family, kills time and again good in flight. What about word searches? Those are always fun.
    When all else fails, walk around, watch the planes land. Hey use the time to get something to eat, that always kills an hour! We also try to find a family that has kids about the same age, in hopes that they will play with each other. Oh yeah and we usually by one new small travel toy. Let them pick it out but, they cannot play with it until we are on vacation. Hey at least it is still new to them and will keep them busy for a few hours!
    With a little planning you all will survive the 7 hours! Good Luck, I hope this helps and have a wonderful trip!

    If they have month to month leases and also by how much?

    Answer:-You can't raise the rent in Oaktown because it is part of an insolvent welfare hood. Watch Dr. Zhivago!
  • Question:-Before you write off the protesters as a bunch of unemployed morons, how about you check them out?
    Right now there are occupy protests in most major cities, i've checked out the san francisco, oakland, and san rafael ones, just because they're all near where i live.


    The media greatly sensationalizes the protests, check one out, it's mostly normal people.
    ... You guys are watching fox news and judging the protesters off of that.

    If you think Fox is going to accurately show the protest, you're an idiot.

    Answer:-the people that are complaining are not interested in checking them out.
    they're not interested in reality.

    faux-lies tells them that they're dirty welfare recipients.
    they don't (think they) need to know anything else.

    it's that way quite a lot with faux-lies viewers.
  • Question:-Who should I start for Week 14 Wide Receivers?
    I have 3 spots available and I have Lee Evans vs. Miami, Antonio Bryant vs. Carolina, Isaac Bruce vs. Jets, Bernard berrian vs. Detroit and Vincent Jackson vs. Oakland. I am leaning towards Evans, Bryant and Bruce, but I'm not sure, esp for the last spot that Bruce occupies. Thanks.

    Answer:-I go with Bryant, Bruce, and Berrian.

    Why are you shaky on Bruce? NYJ will score, so SF will have to play catch up all day (aka pass). Jets have the 30th ranked pass defense. Bruce has been two straight weeks as their primary reciever, two straight games with a TD catch.

    I want Berrian because the Lions have been very susceptible to the big play and Berrian's a big play specialist.

    I'd sit Evans. Five straight games without a TD. Three TDs all year. Against Miami who's held opponents below 20 pts in five of their last six games.
