Superior Quality. Manufactured in the USA, these Ford Racing Mustang ring and pinion gears feature a super strong forged construction, CNC cut & lapped gear teeth, and are completed in a black oxide finish to resist corrosion.
Recommended Upgrade. Changing the rear axle gear ratio will throw off the calibration of your Mustangs speedometer, but a Ford Racing Speedometer Recalibration Tool is an inexpensive way to fix this issue.
Application. This Ford Racing Ring and Pinion Gear set will fit all 2005 to 2009 4.6L V8 Mustangs including the GT and Bullitt models. A master bearing kit is recommended by most installers, especially on high mileage vehicles, see drop down option above.
Technical Note. Installation costs will vary, but a good rule of thumb is between $250 and $300. Be sure to work with a reliable shop that you trust for installations. You can also save money on your installation labor by having your Trac-Lok rebuilt at the same time as your gears are installed, see drop down option above.

Mobile remote deposit capture is helping banks drive mobile adoption, according to data released yesterday by Malauzai Software, an Austin, Texas-based provider of mobile banking apps for community banks. As banks are looking to increase customer engagement, the recent enthusiasm among customers for mobile check deposit seems to be helping them achieve that goal. Malauzai found that banks that have released mobile check deposit saw their number of active users increase 15% month-over-month after its release.
[See Related: Mobile Deposit Combines the Old and New in Bank Technology]
The data was collected by Malauzai as part of a survey conductd last month and involved more than 85 banks and credit unions with more than 75,000 registered mobile banking customers, the company said in statement yesterday. The survey discovered that mobile check deposit users were depositing 2.5 checks on average per month with their phones, and the average deposit was $429. In what might be a bad sign for branch traffic, most of the mobile deposits (66%) were found to be occurring during branch hours between 10:00am and 5:00pm. The study also found that about half of the check images submitted for mobile deposits had to be retaken. About 90% of deposit attempts were eventually successful.

Smart processes become more critical for information workers – sometimes called iworkers -- every day. In fact, processes matter as much if not more than strategies and metrics that are often tracked by Wall Street. When discounted, a lack of process actually makes executing strategies more difficult. However, when processes and strategy intersect, everyone wins.
For instance, research firm Gallup recently analyzed nearly 200 studies spanning 152 organizations and 44 industries in 26 countries. The results showed an uplift of every business performance number if people felt engaged through good processes. Profitability was up 16%, productivity was up 18%, quality was up 60%, and customer loyalty rose 12%, among other findings.
It's very clear from this research that when solid workflows are in place, organizations can accelerate results and focus on what matters, becoming faster, more fluid, and nimble. Yet, according to best-selling author of Social Era Rules Nilofer Merchant, there are several misconceptions that are holding most businesses back – some of which are still taught by top business schools and managers.
In this webinar, corporate strategist Merchant will discuss what those myths are and how organizations can improve processes to bust out of them, resulting in increased employee satisfaction and a reduction in customer attrition. These processes can also lead to better strategies, results, and trust.

Notebook: Second double-double for Murphy
Published: Saturday, March 9, 2013 at 6:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, March 9, 2013 at 6:00 p.m.
LEXINGTON, Ky. — Florida senior forward Erik Murphy got the message early in UF's eventual 61-57 loss Saturday to Kentucky.
"I think the first play of the game I gave up an offensive rebound, and coach got on me," Murphy said.
Murphy finished with 17 points and 11 rebounds, posting his first double-double of the season and just the second of his career. Murphy's last double-double came as a freshman, when he had 16 points and 11 rebounds against Presbyterian on Dec. 30, 2009.
"I need to do it more," Murphy said.
Offensively, Murphy had his way against Kentucky sophomore forward Kyle Wiltjer when center Willie Cauley-Stein was in foul trouble. He scored a pair of driving baskets around Wiltjer, helping the Gators rally back from an early 11-2 deficit to tie the score at 31 at halftime. Murphy finished the game 3 of 6 from 3-point range and 3 of 5 on his two-point shots.
Quick timeouts
Florida coach Billy Donovan called a pair of quick timeouts during the game. The first came 49 seconds into the game, with Florida trailing 4-0. The second came 1:27 into the second half, when the Wildcats went on a 4-0 run to take a 35-31 lead.
"I was really annoyed to start both halves to be honest with you," Donovan said. "I think our team knew Kentucky was going to come in and be aggressive to start the game."
To start the game, Florida had its first two shot attempts blocked, and Donovan was upset Alex Poythress beat Murphy for an early offensive rebound. To start the second half, Patric Young had a missed short jumper and Mike Rosario followed it up with a turnover.
"We were too loose," Donovan said.
Yeguete getting back
If there was a positive to be taken from the loss, Donovan said he thought Will Yeguete is continuing to make progress in his return from a knee injury. In his third game back from knee surgery, Yeguete finished with four points, six rebounds, two assists and a steal in 19 minutes off the bench.
"This is the first time I've seen Yeguete back to close to where he was at," Donovan said. "I thought mentally he was really struggling. I thought he made a little bit of a jump for us, which was good."
Casey Prather also finished with four points and nine rebounds off the bench, but freshman Michael Frazier II was scoreless (0 of 1 from the field) with one turnover.
Cal compliments Gators
Florida's loss dropped the Gators to 3-3 over their last six games. But Kentucky coach John Calipari isn't buying the notion the Gators are slipping.
"They've lost some road games, just like everyone else," Calipari said. "But they're still one of those teams that in my mind is odds-on to have a chance to get to a Final Four."
This year's Final Four is in Atlanta, and Calipari pointed out the last time the Final Four was in Atlanta in 2007, he had coffee every morning with Donovan's father, William. During that Final Four, Florida beat Ohio State to become the first team since Duke in 1991-92 to win back-to-back national titles.
"I told Billy's dad before the game, 'You make sure your son gets his team to Atlanta so you and I can have coffee in the morning,' " Calipari said.
The loss dropped Florida to 7-6 on the road to finish the regular season. … The loss also dropped Donovan to 3-14 in 17 games against Kentucky at Rupp Arena and 58-76 in his UF tenure in games decided by five points or less. … The Wildcats, the defending national champions, clinched the No. 2 seed in the SEC tournament and improved their chances for an NCAA tournament bid.

Former chief Pushak deserves recognition for service
After reading the news articles and watching the news stories focused on the retirement of Cecil Township Police Chief John Pushak, I am struck most by the negativity they channeled.
Let's review the facts: Chief Pushak served Cecil Township for nearly 40 years. After a long, distinguished service, this community should be honoring his loyalty. In fact, we should applaud because rather than just fade away�and keep his head down, the chief himself pointed out the initial account discrepancy.
Having put up the initial red flag, it appears he was put on administrative leave due not to misdeeds, but rather because he called attention to an issue. A lengthy audit (with which he was fully cooperative) proved no funds were missing, and any error was purely a procedural mishap.�
A careful reader can discern that this situation was likely inflamed by the investigation of former Pittsburgh Police Chief Nate Harper. This sort of media contagion can often have long-lasting, negative impacts.
And yet, many positive impacts can be traced to the chief's service. Shawn Bukovinsky will no doubt be a terrific new chief, in part because Chief Pushak mentored him. I, too, received his guidance as his stepdaughter. I know, as so many do, that he is an extraordinarily honest and moral man. His guidance has helped so many (including me, as I am today the CEO of a non-profit dedicated to lifting low-income kids out of poverty).
Let's take the time to thank Chief Pushak for his dedication to a career of service. It would be a shame to let one misunderstanding cloud a four-decade career of distinguished service.

Across our conversations we've heard some remarkably consistent messages about the state of leadership today and the demands that future leaders will likely face. Their ideas have helped us organize the study and practice of leadership at Northwestern on these themes:
Through our programs, we offer Northwestern students an introductory Leadership Course and a Leadership Certificate. The Certificate coursework includes the opportunity to take on a major leadership project of your own design. The Center also offers a Fellowship in Leadership for Ph.D. students and for high potential staff who work with Northwestern students.
Through our Leadership Portal we offer Northwestern students the opportunity to assess their leadership and teamwork abilities as well as to document insights from key challenges. For example, our 360° Leadership Assessment describes how a student practices leadership today and what he or she can do to improve as a leader. Faculty use our Teamwork Assessment to introduce students to best practices for teams that are commonly found in industry.
We also offer students Leadership Coaching through a competitive selection process. Coaching is a top tool for executive development because it focuses leaders, allowing them to achieve improved results while also allowing them to be more effective in their work.
Beyond our core program offerings, we provide custom services for all students, faculty, academic departments and programs, and student affairs programs at Northwestern.
The Center for Leadership serves the Northwestern community. Its academic programs are offered through the McCormick School of Engineering & Applied Science.
Have a question about your leadership, or about how to work with another leader? 300 characters maximum
In partnership with Career Services, we want you to tell us – and the world – about your most important "leadership crucibles" – experiences that noted leadership author and NU alumni Robert Thomas says "reveal what you believe in, stand for, and the lines that you won't cross."
We will be gathering and updating these stories. To learn how to document your own leadership crucible, visit the Leadership Crucible.

NUMBER 141* ATLANTA, GEORGIA DECEMBER, 1903 For statement of the work of At-lanta University see last page. GETTING TOGETHER ON THE NEGRO QUESTION [From article by Dr. F. C. Woodward in South Atlantic Quarterly for October.] The South, moreover, is slow to grasp the historically proved fact that no large part of a people may be socially, politically, and intellectually repressed; without becoming either a criminal or proletarian class, menacing peace, baulking progress, thwarting prosperity. If selfish aims alone incited the Southerner to seek the settlement of the Negro problem, the first lesson they should teach him is that the destinies of white and black are fast interlinked in this section, and, beneficently or maleficently, shall work out together. People are not deported by millions; the man who suggests this solution for happy final results from methods of repression may be passed by as impervious to the light of experience, and he who fancies that one-third of the people of a great section can be kept in ignorance, subserviency, and serfdom, while the favored two-thirds enjoy the blessings of a generous civilization, stands refuted by history. It has been and still is physically possible to hold an inferior class subservient to their superiors; but if history "has proved anything, it is that for both inferior and superior such exploitations result in industrial, political, and moral detriment. No people can hope to go forward a large portion of whom are doomed by repressive force to social subserviency, political nonentity, and moral irresponsibility, their destiny depending not upon their own wills, but upon the dictum of an ascendant caste. This is the elementary lesson the South sadly needs to learn, and it has not yet turned that page. STIRRING UP THE FIRES OF RACE ANTIPATHY [From article by Professor John Spencer Bassett in South Atlantic Quarterly for October.] It is important for us to note that the prog-, ress of the Negro has brought him opposition as well as his regression. Of this the white men who oppose him may not be conscious. They may even fancy that they are the best of friends to the Negro. But the advance of the Negro in education and in economic conditions brings him ever into new conflicts with the white man. This is true because his advance means a greater degree of comfort—a greater disposition to desire the means of higher life. As long as he was merely a laborer it was not hard to draw the line which divided him from other people. It was at that time not hard for him to be content with inferior hotels, or with accommodations in the kitchens of better hotels. In these days he is becoming too intelligent and too refined to be content with these things. He. demands a better place. Formerly, it did not hurt his pride to ride in a "Jim Crow" car; for he had little or no pride of that kind. Now, be considers this law a badge of inferiority, a mark of intolerance which he will some day seek to wipe out. With most white Americans there is a very definite notion that the Negro has his "place." In their minds this notion is a caste feeling. It is an inherited feeling; and it is not difficult to find facts in the Negro's life which seem to give it the support of expediency. To make him know his "place," and to make him keep his "place" sum up the philosophy of many people in reference to this intricate and perplexing problem. But we ought to remember that such an idea is neither scientific nor charitable. The "place" of every man in our American life is such as and his capacities may enable him to take. Not even a black skin and a flat nose can justify caste in this country. MORE HOPEFUL SOUTHERN SENTIMENT In our October number, we quoted some very encouraging utterances of Dr. John Spencer Bassett, printed in the July issue of the South Atlantic Quarterly, published at Durham, N. C. In the October number of the same quarterly are to be found four articles of a similarly encouraging character, all relating directly or indirectly to the race question. So remarkable indeed are these articles that they may be said to form an epoch in the Southern discussion of the great subject involved. Two of the writers, Professors Bassett and Mims, are professors in Trinity College, Durham, N. C, a third, Dr. Kilgo, is president of the same institution, and the fourth, Dr. Woodward, is president of South Carolina College, at Columbia, S. C. We are glad to print in this issue of the Bulletin extracts from all four of these articles, only regretting that our space will not permit us to make them longer, as they are all so good. It is doubtless known to many of our readers that Professor Bassett's article brought so much criticism upon him and Trinity College that he felt compelled to resign his position. The gratifying news has just come, as we write, that the trustees have declined to accept his resignation. When we remem- ber the fate of Professor Sledd of Emory College in Georgia, who for similarly outspoken utterances was compelled by his trustees to resign, it is evident that a great triumph for freedom of utterance in the South has been secured. How great the need of such a victory is, can be realized when one is told that the unpardonable offense of Professor Bassett was the statement in his article that Booker Washington "is a great and good man, a Christian statesman, and take him all in all the greatest man, save General Lee, born in the South in a hundred years." HENRY O. TANNER, ARTIST As one enters the front door of our principal school building, Stone Hall, in the lower hall he finds four photographs of paintings by the colored artist, Henry O. Tanner. These photographs were sent from Paris as the gift of Miss Olivia E. P. Stokes of New York, nearly four years ago, and were acknowledged in our columns at the time. The subjects are: Daniel in the Lion's Den, The Raising of Lazarus, Nicodemus Coming to Christ, and The Annunciation. Mr. Tanner was born in Philadelphia, and is the son of Bishop Tanner of the A. M. E. Church. Speaking of his own earlier efforts, he remarks as follows: From my earliest childhood I drew in my own untutored way, although my ambition was not thoroughly awakened until I had an opportunity of watching some artists out sketching. My wonder increased, as from a few rudimentary lines I saw the picture develop, shaping itself into the semblance of the scene before me. I went home with the firm determination to make art my profession. My friends accorded me scanty encouragement, regarding me as an idle dreamer. 1 finally decided to seek admission to the art school of Philadelphia, my native city. In this I succeeded, and became a student in the Academy of Fine Arts, which is one of the best equipped schools in America. Paris was the Mecca to which I turned— Paris, with its great galleries, its traditions of the past, its living masters. Unluckily, my aspirations did not bid fair to meet their fruition. However, my earnestness won me friends, and finally a generous patron came toward and lent me sufficient money to go ahead and spend a year. I sailed for France in 1891. Financially, Mr. Tanner had a struggle during the first part of his residence in Paris. But he worked hard, soon gaining recognition. He is now well known among artists, especially in biblical subjects, and his paintings are found in many first-class collections.

After 15+ hiatus. the range of motion isn't what it use to be. Bought the 56 deg. ATV and haven't touched my Cleveland 588 RTX CB (gap)/52 deg. Using Phil's "Hinge & Hold" technique and the ATV has made anything inside 85 yds. deadly accurate. I've NEVER had confidence in the sand. now I pick an area and aim/feel the shot. Played several surfaces, (fairway, rough, soggy, dry pan, fluffy sand, wet sand) with face open to somewhat closed...the feel and weight are responsive. Time to get the 60 deg...???!!!!!
I purchased the 56 after years of a CG12. Couldn't be happier. If you have the skill, this wedge can do it all. Fairway, rough, bump and run, low check, lob, flop. Sand shots are ideal. Very pleased with the purchase.
I had this for a couple of weeks now and I was finally able to take it out to the course yesterday. It was reliable for all the shots I took it out on - 80 yard full swing from the fairway, 40 yard shot from the fairway, 30 yard shot from the rough, chips from the green side rough, and lastly, an awkward stance in a green side bunker on the short side. My shots landed softly and stopped where I needed it. I could open it up and hit it solid. Like what it says, it's versatile and very accurate on feel shots. Highly recommended!
This 56 degree wedge is a must for all duffers.With your skill and some practice, you can use this wedge to replace your current PW, SW and gap.I am not sure why the guy above me is rattling on about a 60 degree (its nice, but too niche for an all-around wedge; the 60 is a lob wedge period).Get it - you will love it.

T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
Main message board: for the discussion of topical track & field items only.
T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
Yes, it's a 3-peat for the 800's main man.
Check out full top 10 on front page. Close stuff: first time 4 guys have ever had an approval rating in the 80% range. No. 4 is rarely as high as the 60s.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
I was disappointed to see Merritt all the way down at 4th, but this was an unusually tough year at the top, what with three "are you kidding me?" types of World Records. Merritt had more losses than the others but did not go out if his way to avoid the tough competition.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
In the final analysis I couldn't put him any higher than No. 3 (behind Eaton and Rudisha)
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
I'm a HUGE Aries M fan, but have to agree whole-heartedly.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
I take issue with Rudisha due to his loss. Eaton was perfect and set his WR in a cold, steady rain. Eaton still had one of the top Olympic decathlon performances ever.
How often has the world athlete of the year suffered a loss?
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
I called this a few weeks ago - eaton would get most feat place votes and not win! Curious to see how many voters had him below 3rd
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
For a start, Rudisha did last year.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
How often has the AOY only competed twice ?!!
Merrit gets marked down for competing against everyone all year he's too low here
Mo is WAY too high, outside of London he did nothing of note
I think it's the same 10 as i have though
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
Eaton may have only decathloned twice, but he also competed in individual events at level few other decathletes can, and was 2-0 over Olympic bronze medalist Will Claye in the long jump, and if we went that deep would have ranked about No. 12 in the world. He also ran at a world-class level in 110H races and if he had been in that event at London, would have been a semifinalist.
So I didn't think of his season as just the two competitions.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
Not to mention - a heptathlon wr even though t&f news refused to acknowledge it
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
I like the top two. I could agree with them in either order.
From the front page:
"The 23-year-old Kenyan halfmiler did it
largely on the strength of the Performance
Of The Year, a wire-to-wire World Record
run of 1:40.91 to win Olympic gold."
Eaton's OT performance was, for me, probably equal.
But the fact Rudisha's was a 1:40 blaze of glory vs. Eaton's dramatic 10-event slow burn made that 800 a jaw-dropping moment and, again for me, wipes out any negative from the end-of-season loss.
Two of the most memorable performances and seasons in my t&f memory.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
I'm never, ever going to give credit for losing only twice when a guy purposely ducks a competitor who can beat him. I'm only arguing that Merritt should have been third; I figured the AOY would be either Eaton or Rudisha and pushing for Merritt was Quixotic if not just plain being ornery.
If indoor variations on outdoor events counted, I'd have to go with Eaton. Put it this way: he probably would have been up for Olympic selection in the hurdles and the long jump for any other nation in the world besides the US. That's just nuts.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
The top four had 29 points separating them??
Are you sure you didn't forget a decimal point......as in "two-point-nine" (2.9) as the points span??
Those four could easily have been switched around in any number of combinations!!
I still believe, however, that Merritt or Eaton should have been ahead of Rudisha!!
Hopefully, in the POY department, they WILL be!!!
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
I have absolutely no problem with Eaton at all and in any other year i would happily have him No1 but i do think that peoples views by where he set his WR (as are mine having not seen even 1 sec of it). If he's set this record in RUS or at the UK champs in Hexham (or whatever god forsaken place they were this year) he wouldn't be getting these kind of props
Anyway great top 4 and very happy this is voted on actual achievement not for PR purposes
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
Don't hold your breath
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
it was well acknowledged to the indoor season, where it belonged. We similarly "refused to acknowledge" (as always) cross country races, non-marathon road races, 56-pound weight throws, caber tosses, the egg-and-spoon race, 3-legged race, synchronized high jumping and being the member of a relay team.
None are part of the picture of the central core of the sport as defined by T&FN for its purposes decades ago. It's a simple system to understand, and it's here to stay.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
The IAAF counts it and when decathletes only have 2-3 competitions, it makes sense. I would apply same principal towards an indoor 5k or 10k. Maybe not as enough merit but something. I do like the fact that u factored in his lj and 110h marks.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
What the IAAF does is of no concern to us.
I would also note that despite the IAAF's "counting it" he didn't make their top 3!
I guess you're better off sticking with our way after all.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
I have to agree, there is no way he gets ranked behind Bolt for competing against everyone all year, and having the year that he did, even if there were some losses.
Bolt purposely did not race his best competition, except when necessary. This has to be factored into the ranking system somehow...
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
OK, when did Merritt lose this year? I went to the IAAF site to check on the yearly list, only to find out that they have f*@ked that site beyond belief (yes, I know there is a separate thread). I know he false started once. Other than that, where were his losses?
I do agree with others that Merritt should be rewarded for stepping to the line against all comers, while Bolt should not be rewarded for ducking competition for the better part of the year. I'll be curious to see any mention of head to head records in the upcoming issue.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
He false started twice (New York and Lausanne DLs), and also lost the DL races in Shanghai (13.26 for 4th) and Eugene (12.96w for 2nd).
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
I can't argue against Rudisha, but I would have voted for Merritt.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
So we don't end up confusing apples & oranges here. The World Rankings compilers very much take quality of competition into account when crunching their numbers.
But there is no "system" involved with the AOY voting. There are 40-plus members of the international panel who are given ballots which detail each athlete's seasonal record, places in the World Rankings, and how their marks stack up both on the yearly and all-time lists.
From there, subjective judgment takes over. As we've seen just from the small number of participants in this thread, assessing what's important is all over the lot. Not everybody sees everything the same way.
Thus in this year's men's ballot (37 votes), 5 different performers got a nod for No. 1, (and the same 5 for Nos. 2 and 3), 7 for Nos. 4 and 5.... and 16 men overall got nods for the top 10.
Sometimes the ballots look a lot like mine, other years they don't. That's the beauty of a "democracy"; the final result may not be right, but with some group think (informed group think that is) we think it's a better result than our declaring by fiat who was No. 1.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
Or by using rigid mathematical formulae. The collective judgment strategy definitely makes the most sense.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
Thanks for that. I remembered the Lausanne FS, but didn't remember the early season losses and DQ. Curiously, I was at the New York meet, and I don't remember him with a FS. I guess he didn't hit my radar as a potential AOY at that point.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
The problem with all "rigid mathematical formulae" (aka "computer rankings") is that somewhere along the line, somebody has to make set of subjective judgments. Which is why the BCS uses three different "computer rankings" each devised by somebody with his own way of thinking.
So as you say, "collective judgment" makes a lot of sense.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
Here's a bit of "insider knowledge" that may give you a clue as to how hard it would be to construct a formula to decide on AOY.
R.L. Quercetani, generally regarded as the doyen of both track & field historians and statisticians, in his long decades honchoing T&FN's World Rankings, never voted for AOY.
He said AOY-voting was classic apples & oranges and that it was only possible to compare people inside the same cohort.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
Excellent choices! Rudisha as AOY with the POY also. Heck of a year for Eaton to break the WR in the Dec and Merritt in the 110H. Most other years they would be either AOY or POY. I would have voted Merritt ahead of Bolt for the same reasons given previously on this site. I'm also glad there is a significant gap to Mo Farah in #5 ... he had an amazing, and emotionally spectacular, year, but not in the same league as the four ahead of him.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
so true. easy for most of us to pick an apple over an orange, but almost impossible to be objective.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
I am flabbergasted that 3 of the 37 purported experts didn't even deem Robert Harting in the Top 10!!
The guy was UNDEFEATED (unlike Rudisha, Bolt, Merritt) in 12 showings, won Olympic gold, and had 2 throws over 70m.
How did they miss him?
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
This could go in either men's or women 's AOY threads, but after a bit of scanning the two Top Ten's, I found the following bits of trivia:
In each Top Ten, there was one Multi person each, one High Hurdler each, and one Pole Vaulter each.
Multi's: Both Ennis and Eaton took 2nd place. Eaton was 17 points behind 1st, while Ennis was 21 points back
110/100H: Both Merritt and Pearson finished in 4th!!
PV: Both Lavillenie and Suhr ended in 10th. Suhr was 245 points behind Adams, while Lavillenie was 250 back from Rudisha!!
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
Harting omission by 3 voters? Easy, some voters are biased vs multieventers and field eventers just like heisman voters and MVP voters are often biased v defensive players. I would kick people out if they leave out an obvious pick for bias but I realize that is not always easy to do
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
and your point is??
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
Just found it interesting!
(But "interesting", I suppose, is strictly "in the eye of the beholder"!! )
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
What I find interesting and illogical is the All-Athletics.com ranking of Yohan Blake as 2nd in the overall AOY ranking behind Bolt. Makes no sense at all to me.
Blake is give 1455 points in the 100m and 1409 in the 200m. His individual scores for the event seem OK; that is they make sense. But then those 2 individual scores somehow then translate to 1509 points overall.
Rudisha, on the other hand, gets 1472 for the 800m which translates to 1472 for the overall.
Blake gets 2 x silver, 0 x WR compared to Rudisha's 1 x gold and 1 x WR.
It appears All-Athletics rated the best performances - at least by single event as:
Merrit 1487; Rudisha 1472; Eaton 1471; Bolt (110m) 1464
Perhaps even more ridiculous is the ranking of Mo Farah as 19th overall and only 4th in the 5000m. Even Gatlin stomps all over Farah - 7th overall and his points for the 100m well ahead of Farah for the 500m and 10000m.
Robert Harting was only good enough for 30th overall. He was behind Asafa Powell, Liu Xiang, Churandy Martina, Tyson Gay and Nickel Ashmeade. 1 x gold and undefeated just can't keep up with a bunch of sprinter types with 0 x any sort of medal and multiple defeats.
What a complete nonsense of a ranking system. Are any of the posters on this message board involved in the compiling of the All-Athletics.com list of statistical nonsense.
At the risk of being banned again I will sum up by using the very "banning terminology" that got me into trouble a few weeks ago. IMO the All-Athletics.com ranking list has been put together by morons and idiots.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
They use a formula which is explained at the link below.
http://www.all-athletics.com/en-us/rule ... kings-2012
Apparently they don't give any extra consideration for championship events like the Olympics or the quality of the competitors in any given meet; it's all about placings and timings/distances. Looks like they simply decided on a simplistic formula, and didn't bother to give it a reality check and tweak it after looking at its output.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
Their rules, on the surface, read like the world's very best breakfast of Eggs Benedict but the reality of the resulting meal is very much a complete dog's breakfast.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
I have absolutely nothing to do with setting up the All-athletics.com ranking system, but I do at least appreciate that someone is attempting to do it. Your name calling really does not do much for anything or anyone. How about you set up a ranking system.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
While it's an 'improvement' of the old IAAF (worthless) formula, it still suffers from a lack of 'common sense' in the output. Here are the wPV rankings [T&FN vs. A-A]:
Putting Suhr 4th reveals just how of touch the formula is.
Re: T&FN's Men's AOY: David Rudisha
While I appreciate the dedication to tracking and recording performances their AOY formula is a dog's breakfast and IMO brings the sport into disrepute when the results are so obviously a farce. As a case in point I use the rankings of Tyson Gay compared to Robert Harting.
2012 Comparison
Gay - - - - - - Harting
12th - - - - - - 30th - - - - - - All-Athletics AOY ranking
9.80 - - - - - - 70.66 - - - - - - Best performance in 2012
4th - - - - - - - 1st - - - - - - - Olympic Placing
0 - - - - - - - - - GOLD - - - - - Olympic medals
1290 - - - - - - 1269 - - - - - - IAAF scoring table points for 2012 best performance
4th - - - - - - - 1st - - - - - - - Rank in world of best athletes (one performance per athlete)
10th - - - - - - 1st - - - - - - - - Rank in world of best performance (count all performances)
1 - - - - - - - - 4 - - - - - - - - - Number of performances in world top 10 performances
10,- - - - - - - 1,2,7,10 - - - - Ranking of top 10 performances in world
42211 - - - - - 11111111111- - Places in finals for 2012
1. Gay's best 100m had a +1.5 m/s wind.
2. Would a 0 m/s wind bring Gay down to 9.86 and 1267 points
3. Only finals counted - heats and qualifying ignored
And as I pointed out this is not an isolated example. All-Athletics claim to be the world's leading TNF database; and I do not dispute that claim at all. They are also a commercial organization. Their standing in the world of athletics demands that they have a formula that is not nonsensical; and IMO what they currently have is just that - nonsensical - and it throws up moronic and idiotic rankings.
Their contributors are world recognised experts. I do not believe that these experts believe the results of their computer formula.
Tyson Gay is a great athlete and clearly a great person as well. But he is far behind Robert Harting in terms of AOY rankings for 2012.

|Sticky Tag:
Correct the docstring for SAVE for the :LOAD-INIT-FILE argument.
Some changes to replace calls to gettext with _"" or _N"" for things compiled with and without Unicode. This is needed so that the pot files have the same content for both unicode and non-unicode builds. (The _"" and _N"" are handled by the reader, so things that are conditionalized out still get processed, unlike using gettext.)
Actually set the library search list to the saved value. Previously we weren't because *cmucl-lib* is almost always bound. Normally *old-cmucl-library-search-list* is unbound, but when a core is made, it becomes bound. We use that to indicate that the library search list should be set to *old-cmucl-library-search-list*.
Add "target:contrib" to modules: search-list so that contribs can be found when running the one of the builds without installing the build.
code/commandline.lisp: o Update DEFSWITCH to allow docstrings (and argument names) o Add docstrings to the available switches o Add -help (and --help) switches to print out usage information and exit. code/save.lisp: o If the command line includes -help or --help, disable loading of the user init and site init files. We don't want to process them if we're going to just print out help and exit.
Change uses of _"foo" to (intl:gettext "foo"). This is because slime may get confused with source locations if the reader macros are installed.
Remove _N"" reader macro from docstrings when possible.
Merge intl-branch 2010-03-18 to HEAD. To build, you need to use boot-2010-02-1 as the bootstrap file. You should probably also use the new -P option for build.sh to generate and update the po files while building.
Restart internalization work. This new branch starts with code from the intl-branch on date 2010-02-12 18:00:00+0500. This version works and LANG=en@piglatin bin/lisp works (once the piglatin translation is added).
Set locale on startup.
Mark translatable strings; update cmucl.pot and ko/cmucl.po accordingly.
Make the search for the domain file if search lists aren't initialized yet, since the default locale directories includes search lists. This prevents the search from failing if we need to print out an error message early in the build/load process. Could this be done in a better/different way? code/save.lisp: o Define *ENVIRONMENT-LIST-INITIALIZED* o Set *ENVIRONMENT-LIST-INITIALIZED* to T after ENVIRONMENT-INIT has initialized everything. code/intl.lisp: o Make LOCATE-DOMAIN-FILE return NIL if the search lists aren't set up yet. This allows translated strings to just use the non-translated version. bootfiles/20a/boot-2010-02-1.lisp: o Bootstrap *ENVIRONMENT-LIST-INITIALIZED*
Add (intl:textdomain "cmucl") to the files to set the textdomain.
As suggested by Madhu <firstname.lastname@example.com>, removed the ext:getenv function that I had introduced a few days ago. Instead, four foreign function definitions are introduced, following Madhu's proposal. The four functions: unix-getenv unix-setenv unix-putenv unix-unsetenv are defined both in unix.lisp and unix-glibc2.lisp.
In `(defun getenv (name))': check for name being in *keyword-package* first.
Provide ext:getenv function.
Add contrib directory to extra tarball. These were always part of the CMUCL source tree, but were never delivered in a distribution. code/module.lisp: o Define module "cmu-contribs" that loads defmodule definitions for the contrib code. code/save.lisp: o Add "library:contrib/" to the modules search-list so we can find the installed contribs. tools/make-extra-dist.sh: o Install all contrib files contrib/contrib.lisp: o New file that defines modules for the contrib packages.
Fix spacing for Unicode herald item.
unidata.lisp: o Add *unidata-version* to hold our revision number. save.lisp: o Add Unicode to the herald items. Just print out the unidata version along with the supported Unicode UCD version.
Merge Unicode work to trunk. From label unicode-utf16-extfmt-2009-06-11.
Add "target:i18n/" to ext-formats: search list. We want to move unidata.bin to there instead of in the external-formats directory.
Add another entry to the ext-formats search-list to look in the source directory for external formats.
Merge changes from utf16 branch to update to snapshot 2008-12.
Merge Snapshot 2008-12 to this branch. Some tweaks needed in boot-2008-05-cross-unicode-x86.lisp and the Config files. FreeBSD and Darwin/x86 untested, but Linux and Solaris build ok.
Change how we put the FPU type into the core file. We can't use compile-time options to do this. The running core file has to tell us. lisp/save.c: o Add extra arg to save function to indicate whether the core we're saving supports sse2 or not. Non-zero means sse2. o Put the correct indication into the core file. lisp/save.h: o Update declaration of save. code/save.lisp: o Update alien definition for save o Pass in the extra parameter for the save routine to indicate if we support sse2 or not.
Merge changes from HEAD for the ext-formats search-list change.
Create a new search-list "ext-formats" that is initialized to "library:ext-formats/". This makes it easier to add new directories where external formats can be found. The previous use made it difficult because the formats had to be in the subdirectory ext-formats. save.lisp: o Create and initialize new search-list. extfmts.lisp: o Use the new search-list instead of "library:ext-formats/".
Preserve library: search list when dumping an executable. Also needed help from code in lisp.c.
Save library: search list when dumping executable image.
Add executable feature, conditionalize stuff
src/save.lisp: o Add new search-list "ld-library-path:" which contains the value of the environment variable "LD_LIBRARY_PATH". src/foreign.lisp: o Modify LOAD-FOREIGN so that we will try to load a single file as a shared library first. If that fails, we try loading it as an object file. We do not try to see if the library exists (via probe-file or anything). Instead we let dlopen do whatever it would normally do to find the file, including searching LD_LIBRARY_PATH. o REINITIALIZE-GLOBAL-TABLE now has a few restarts to allow the user to decide what to do if a shared library cannot be found. The restarts are ignoring the problem, trying to reload the file again, or specifying a new path. o REINITIALIZE-GLOBAL-TABLE is placed on EXT:*AFTER-SAVE-INITIALIZATIONS* now.
Special case the processing of the -quiet command-line flag in order to ensure that its effects kick in early enough during startup, thus silencing loading of siteinit, siteinit-loaded files, etc. Reported by JBThiel against the OS X port.
Fred Gilham's Lisp executable support for CMUCL.
Remove package nicknames USER from COMMON-LISP-USER. Add a new package COMMON-LISP which LISP uses, so that COMMON-LISP no longer has the non-ANSI nickname LISP. To bootstrap, use boot13.lisp as target:bootstrap.lisp with pmai's build scripts, and do a full compile. * src/bootfiles/18e/boot13.lisp: Change for all the package changes. * src/code/exports.lisp: New package common-lisp, which lisp uses. * src/tools/worldload.lisp: * src/tools/setup.lisp: Use cl-user instead of user. Use lisp:: instead of cl::. * src/tools/worldcom.lisp: * src/tools/snapshot-update.lisp: * src/tools/pclcom.lisp: * src/tools/mk-lisp: * src/tools/hemcom.lisp: * src/tools/config.lisp: * src/tools/comcom.lisp: * src/tools/clxcom.lisp: * src/tools/clmcom.lisp: * src/pcl/defsys.lisp: * src/motif/lisp/initial.lisp: * src/interface/initial.lisp: * src/hemlock/lispmode.lisp (setup-lisp-mode): Use cl-user instead of user. * src/code/save.lisp (assert-user-package): * src/code/print.lisp (%with-standard-io-syntax): Find cl-user package instead of user. * src/code/package.lisp (package-locks-init): Add lisp.

Merge with HEAD.
Preserve the case of the variable names in the environment.
*** empty log message ***
Undo exporting of *cmucl-lib* and friends, since this requires bootstrapping, and other modifications.
Added recording and printing of time and host the current core was saved on, for identification purposes. Also exported *cmucl-lib*, *cmucl-core-path*, *cmucl-core-dump-time* and *cmucl-core-dump-host* from extensions, since they are arguably useful for certain users.
Herald refers to web site rather than to mailing list addresses for sending bug reports.
From Eric Marsden: Trying to save-lisp to a filename whose directory component doesn't exist will currently generate a "bad address" error from Unix. * add some sanity checking to the output file argument to EXT:SAVE-LISP.
o Adds support for searching for the lisp.core file based on the location of the lisp C binary, when CMUCLLIB is not given, and the core file is not specified. o Add support for a CMUCLCORE envvar, and a -lib option for setting the path for the library: search-list. o Added some spare static symbols for the sparc port so we don't have to cross-compile again for a while. See cmucl-imp archives for some more details.
Patch from Martin Cracauer. The search-list "modules:" is set to track the search-list "library:" instead of being set whatever path "library:subsystems/" is set to at start up.
Mega commit to bring RELENG_18 branch in sync with HEAD in preparation for release tagging 18d.
This change causes the *batch-mode* flag to be reset when saving a core. If the newly introduced :batch-mode argument to save-lisp is supplied and is true, then the *batch-mode* flag is set to true, otherwise it is set to false, before saving the core. This should prevent ugly surprises by newbies using -batch when dumping cores.
Added -nositeinit commandline switch, that suppresses loading of the site-init file.
This change brings the defaults for CMUCLLIB and the default core on Linux in-line with all other non-MACH platforms, and with the Linux Filesystem Standard.
From Eric Marsden: Initialize the modules: namestring so that things like (require :clx-library) work (assuming the filesystem layout present in the release tarballs).
Add a final #\newline to the batch mode exit message; from Eric Marsden.
Add a final #\newline to the batch mode exit message; from Eric Marsden.
When in batch mode, exit upon errors, even during initialisation.
When in batch mode, exit upon errors, even during initialisation.
o Based on suggestions from Martin Cracauer, flush commonly used output streams during the processing of command line switches and upon exit. This is a convenience for typical usage, and not all output streams are flushed, so important streams should still be flushed but user code. o Add a new function finish-standard-output-streams to finish output on the commonly used output streams. Called after the processing of each command line switch, and before the %end-of-the-world. o Extend the eval switch to process multiple forms, flushing the common output streams between each.

Minor updates from the main branch.
Initialize the *environment-list* before running the after-save initializations so that the environment-list is available to them.
This (huge) revision brings the RELENG_18 branch up to the current HEAD. Note code/unix-glib2.lisp not yet included -- not sure it is ready to go.
Request that questions be sent to email@example.com and that bug reports be sent to email@example.com.
Change the default bug report site from firstname.lastname@example.com to the firstname.lastname@example.com mailing list.
Ensure that multi-processing is shutdown before saving a lisp core.
GENCGC interface.
Patch to save-lisp to cancel the finalizer for the *tty* stream before the save. To fix a problem where the stream is erroneously closed in the re-started lisp.
initial post 1.3.7 merge
Werkowskis source kit 1.03.7
Fixed batch-mode stuff to have a chance of working.
Enable batch mode support for ILU with appropriate init-function selected by the *batch-mode* parameter which is set at the command line.
Got conditional backwards in setting up Library:.
Default library: path is now /usr/local/lib/cmucl/lib on all non-Mach architectures.
Fix headed boilerplate.
Changed *before-save-initializations* to once again be done before saving. They were long ago changed to running after restarting because the save implementation no longer protected the running Lisp from their effect (by forking.) However, now the Lisp exits after saving, greatly reducing this concern.
Changed the default for library: under hpux to be /usr/local/lib/cmucl/lib.
Update for the new purify interface.
Add MAYBE-BYTE-LOAD and BYTE-LOAD-OVER functions for controlling loading of byte code in worldload.
Use /usr/local/cmucl instead of /usr/misc/.cmucl on hpux.
tweak doc string.
Changed core saving to no longer save the stacks. Instead, when the core is restored, a (supplied) initial function is invoked which can do whatever kind of setup it wants. This makes a saved lisp totally independent of the location of the C stack.
Set *ENVIRONMENT-LIST* to NIL before we start to push things on it in ENVIRONMENT-INIT so that we don't keep around the old values.
Defined new parameterized PRINT-HERALD, exported *HERALD-ITEMS*.
Removed the :enable-gc option, as it's no longer needed.
Merged trunk changes
Added ``:verbose nil'' to the load of site-init.lisp.
Merged new-alien changes onto trunk.
Process the command line before printing the herald so that we can eval some form and quit without printing anything.
Mods for new aliens.
Fixed for gengc system.
Changed ENVIRONMENT-INIT to initialize "home:".
If CMUCLLIB is not defined, use /usr/misc/.cmucl/lib/.
Added support for the CMUCLLIB/library: search list. Added load of library:site-init. Moved path: initialization here from lispinit. Only call EVAL:FLUSH-INTERPRETED-FUNCTION-CACHE if it is fbound.
Tweaked PRINT-HERALD to print the backend version, and to say to send mail to cmucl-bugs.
Added a call to eval:flush-interpreted-function-cache before the call to purify in save-lisp. This prevents us from unnecessarily holding on to interpreted drek created at load time.
New file header with RCS header FILE-COMMENT.
Added the :ENABLE-GC option to SAVE-LISP so that GC can be turned on before switch demons are run (such as -edit.)
Added :constants argument to save-lisp. It gets passed on to purify.
Moved MIPS branch onto trunk; no merge necessary.
Fixed the def-c-routine.
Added two functions, assert-user-package and initial-init-function, for use by worldload.
Removed the #+nil in front of the call to purify or gc.
Fixed print-herald to check to make sure the version specials are bound before printing them.
Initial MIPS version.

text: I absolutely love these albums. I started the 8 x 8 format several years ago because I do digital scrapbooking and I can print this size myself saving the time and expense of sending it out to be printed. I like the 3-ring much more than the post binding as it is easy to add pages. I hope that you continue to stock these 3-ring 8 x 8 albums and even add more colors.

Georgia to Pay Diabetes Doctors for PerformancePosted: Tuesday, May 30, 2006
Georgia will provide bonuses to doctors who care for state employees with diabetes, and improve their outcomes.
The incentive pay announcement for doctors who care for diabetes patients in the State Health Benefit Plan was made Friday by Gov. Sonny Perdue. Doctors who can provide diabetes patients preventive medical services can save money while delivering better care, Perdue said. The state plan covers 640,000 state employees and teacher as well as their dependents and retirees
About 30,000 people in the plan are estimated to have diabetes or be at risk for the disease, state officials said. Nearly a half-million adult Georgians have said they've been diagnosed with diabetes and health officials believe nearly a quarter-million more people have undiagnosed diabetes.
Diabetes is the sixth-leading cause of death in the country, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It involves higher-than-normal levels of blood glucose, or sugar. Doctors who volunteer for the state's incentive plan will be evaluated on how they improve the health of those with diabetes. They can receive $61 a year extra _ up to an annual payment cap of $20,000 _ for each diabetes patient covered by participating employers by meeting quality standards.
State officials say it costs more than $4 billion a year for diabetes-related costs of medical care, lost productivity and premature death. It costs $10,000 more yearly to treat a diabetes patient than it costs to treat someone without the disease, state officials said.
"Pay for performance" incentives _ or paying more to doctors who meet proper medical guidelines _ is a growing practice among employers and health insurance companies. Private employers, including BellSouth Corp. and UPS, are participating in the project.
Perdue credited former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich for helping create the bonus plan. "The commitment here to a healthy Georgia that saves lives and saves money will be a model for the rest of the country," said Gingrich, founder of the Washington-based Center for Health Transformation, which is helping organize the Bridges to Excellence diabetes project.
