Four men are facing charges after the RCMP and RNC seized 50 pounds of Canadian Currency — estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars— along with about five pounds of marijuana during an enforcement effort Thursday evening known as Operation Backstop.
Terrence Gallant and Bruce Hickey, both of Benoit's Cove, were charged and released on Thursday for a court appearance at a later date.
Jean-Paul Mondoux and Andre Sequin of Ontario will attend a bail hearing today in Corner Brook provincial court.
The RCMP federal policing operations west in Corner Brook, in co-operation with Corner Brook RNC, conducted a takedown and searches Thursday in conjunction with an investigation ongoing since 2012.
The RCMP Serious and Organized Crime Unit in Cornwall, Ont., was also involved in the investigation.
Charges against the men include conspiracy to traffic in a controlled substance, possession of property obtained by crime, money laundering, and possession for the purpose of trafficking a controlled substance.
To give an anonymous tip on crime, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Free-falling Optical Profiler
The Free-Falling Optical Profiler, or Profiler II, measures the color of the ocean and how it varies spectrally throughout the euphotic zone. The Profiler II is used by the US, Canada, UK, France, Italy, Australia, Brazil, China, Taiwan, Korea, Japan, India, Germany and Israel to provide calibration and validation data for ocean color satellites. It is used operationally by naval research groups to provide observations of the optical properties of the ocean for anti-submarine warfare, mine countermeasures and laser LIDAR bathymetry. The Profiler II is also the workhorse sensor suite for the global optical oceanography community who investigate basic fundamental biological and physical processes that involve light in the ocean.
The Free-Falling Optical Profiler offers researchers the unique opportunity to use this system as a free fall profiling device or in conjunction with a detachable float for near-surface measurements (HyperTSRB). The Profiler II is designed to interchange Satlantic's hyperspectral or multispectral optical sensors making this system the most versatile platform for measuring the apparent optical properties of the ocean.
The Profiler II system comes complete with a molded flotation collar that is easily mounted to the profiling frame for real time, near-surface measurements. Upwelling radiance and irradiance measurements can be collected as close as 5 cm from the sea surface.
The optional integration of Wet Labs ECO series sensors offers a new combination for concurrent determination of chlorophyll fluorescence and optical backscattering in either profiling or surface mode.

How do I avoid the effects of the ship's shadow when logging optical data with the MicroPro II?
The free-falling profiler is designed to profile away from a small boat or large ship to avoid any potential shadow effects. The instrument is deployed by hand from the leeward side of the vessel and allowed to descend while the vessel drifts downwind. When the profiler is pulled back up to the surface, the fins cause the instrument to maintain its location and come straight up. Using this method, the optical profiles can be performed at a safe distance from the vessel.How do you avoid the effects of the ship's shadow when logging optical data with the MicroPro II?

Where do I find the Pressure Tare button in later versions of SatView?
In later SatView Versions, the Pressure Tare button is located under the ancillary view at the "package" level. To open the ancillary view at the package level: Notice the white section of the SatView main window - this is where your loaded instruments appear. Within this white section, at the very top there is a suitcase icon, with the individual instruments treed out underneath. Right click to bring up a drop down menu, select "View List" and "Ancillary View" to open the package level ancillary window that contains the Pressure Tare button.
What are SIP files?
Files that are delivered with Satlantic and third party equipment to describe the sensors data output and calibration coefficients come in two types. Calibration files or *.cal files and telemetry definition format files or *.tdf files. In some cases, systems are created that network many sensors together and their combined data is provided in one serial output.
The simplest example is a HOCR sensor that generates both light and dark frames. A more complex example is a HPROII profiling system that may contain as many as 5 sensors and 7 individual calibration and tdf files. These files must be used to both collect and process the data.
This can become quite confusing to keep track of all these files so Satlantic developed SIP files. All CAL and TDF files required for a system are zipped using winzip and the extension changed from *.ZIP to *.SIP. The file name includes the system description (usually the network master serial number) and the creation date. This SIP file can then be used in place of individual files to collect and process data.

Draw Me a Story
From October 1 through December 31, 2011, Draw Me a Story: A Century of Children's Book Illustration, explores bold adventures, classic fairy tales, amazing animals, and imaginative ABCs, all seen through the eyes of forty-one artists who have created works especially for children.
Originating from the Cartoon Art Museum in San Francisco, this exhibition features forty original works of art and thirteen books in a 130-year journey through the history of children's book illustrators and illustration techniques.
Located in the Charles R. Wood Gallery, Draw Me a Story includes such well-known artists as Ralph Caldecott, Kate Greenaway, W.W. Denslow, William Steig, Edward Ardizzone, Lois Lenski, Tomie DePaola, Maurice Sendak, Rosemary Wells, Patrick McDonnell, and Chris Van Allsburg. The exhibition explores the process of illustration and its evolution and will travel from Glens Falls to The Frick Art and Historical Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to be on view from January 28, 2012 through May 25, 2012.
As an adjunct to Draw Me a Story, The Hyde Collection is presenting, for the first time, a selection of children's illustrated books from its own collection. Entitled Hyde and Seek: Illustrated Children's Books from the Permanent Collection, the majority of these books once belonged to the grandchildren of Samuel and Eliza Pruyn whose daughters, Mary, Charlotte and Nell lived in the three houses that now comprise the heart of The Hyde Collection's campus. Several of the books are inscribed with the name of Mary van Ness "Nessie" Hyde (1903-1979), the only child of Charlotte Pruyn and Louis Hyde. Others were read by Mary Eliza "Polly" Hoopes (1905-1994) and her brother Samuel, the children of Mary Pruyn and Maurice Hoopes.
Among the British, French, German, Italian, and American illustrators represented here are Jean de Brunhoff, the French originator of Babar and Jessie Willcox Smith, one of America's leading illustrators from about 1890 to 1935. Born near Philadelphia, Smith studied under Thomas Eakins and Howard Pyle and was one of the first women to be inducted into the Society of Illustrators' Hall of Fame. The work of Randolph Caldecott, Walter Denslow, and other well-known illustrators included in Draw Me Story is also represented in this exhibition selected from the permanent collection.
Within Hyde and Seek, a reading space,"The Inside Story," welcomes our youngest visitors and their parents. The books found in the exhibition, as well as other well-known children's books, will be available to read and enjoy.
We thank our exhibition sponsors and media sponsor for their support.
Draw Me a Story was curated by artist and illustrator Leslie A. Przybylek, Curator of Humanities Exhibitions for Mid-America Arts Alliance in Kansas City, Missouri, and is organized by the Cartoon Art Museum in San Francisco, CA. The exhibition is toured by ExhibitsUSA, a national program of Mid-American Arts Alliance.

McCarter Theatre and University hold topping-off ceremony for new theater
Posted May 7, 2002; 01:18 p.m.
A topping-off ceremony was held on Monday, May 6, at the construction site of the $14.1 million Roger S. Berlind Theatre, which is being built adjacent to the McCarter Theatre. The new structure, slated to open in spring 2003, will serve both McCarter and Princeton University.
"Topping off of a building not only celebrates the completion of the steel structure but also recognizes the accomplishments of the construction workers," explained Emily Mann, the theater's artistic director. "This topping-off symbolizes another milestone in the unprecedented partnership between McCarter and Princeton University's Program in Theater and Dance. I am happy to report that due to the mild winter weather and a great crew of trades workers, the construction of the Berlind Theatre is right on schedule."
The Berlind Theatre will include a 350 seat proscenium theater, two rehearsal halls, classrooms, offices and other support areas. The facility will function as a second stage for McCarter Theatre and as the principal performance venue for the University's Program in Theater and Dance .
McCarter and the University are jointly raising funds for the project; overseeing the design, planning and construction of the building; and will schedule the activities in the new theater, which will be shared equally. Major support comes from theater producer and 1954 Princeton alumnus Roger S. Berlind, for whom the building will be named. Groundbreaking was held in September.
The architect is Hugh Hardy '54, founder and partner of Hardy Holzman Pfeiffer Associates, a planning, architectural and interior design firm with offices in New York and Los Angeles. Hardy specializes in complex building types, primarily for public use, including the renovations of the New Victory Theater, the Joyce Theater, the New Amsterdam Theater and the Cooper-Hewitt Museum. The Berlind Theatre represents Hardy's first architectural project on the Princeton campus.

Judge Koh to Apple Lawyers: Are You "Smoking Crack"?
Jason Mick
August 17, 2012 9:45 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
(Source: Comedy Central)
As with Motorola case, Apple is starting to get on the judge's nerves in its case against Samsung
Like a boss, Apple, Inc. (
) went out and poured money into recruiting top tier legal representation to sue its rivals. In
U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California
, this synergy seemed on the verge of succeeding after Apple's lawyers micromanaged to
exclude certain high profile pieces of evidence
from rival Samsung Electronics Comp., Ltd. (
), while allowing its
own star exhibits
. But it appears that yet again Apple is brushing off on its attorneys, as they've found a way annoy yet another judge.
After enduring the seeming harassment of a 75-page briefing requesting 22 rebuttal witnesses for next week, presiding
Judge Lucy Koh
changed her tone, no longer looking to give Apple any courtroom promotion. In fact the filing had Judge Koh inquiring whether Apple attorneys had been busy scoring some coke.
She asked Apple why they would present her the document "when unless you're smoking crack you know these witnesses aren't going to be called!"
But Apple attorney William Lee insists that he wasn't looking for the
free crack giveway
, commenting, "First, your honor, I'm not smoking crack. I can promise you that."
He argued that a couple of the witnesses on his lists were Samsung's. As Samsung and Apple's legal teams then fell into a noisy legal argument, she exclaimed,
according to
a courtroom reporter for
The Verge
, "I'm billing time because you all are being unreasonable."
Judge Koh had already pushed both sides to cut down on the time of their arguments, saying the court could not devote itself to being a full-time Apple v. Samsung court. Apple tested the waters last week, asking Judge Koh to allow a rebuttal witness, designer Susan Kare, after its early design witnesses had
struggled under cross-examination

But Apple said Ms. Kare couldn't return to court until next week due to "family matters".
Irritated, Judge Koh told Apple's team that unless Ms. Kare could come this week, she wouldn't be coming at all. But Apple's lawyers apparently couldn't take the hint, requesting even more witnesses for next week on Thursday.
That kind of belligerent filings and judicial frustrations strikes eerily similar to that encountered in the case against Google Inc. (
) subsidiary Motorola which Apple presented to
Judge Richard A. Posner
, a
Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals
judge moonlighting in the
U.S. District Court, Northern District of Illinois
Judge Posner initially seemed
inclined to listen
to Apple's infringement claims, but after Apple insisted on appealing every single decision --
even its own victories
-- with a slew of junk filings, his sentiments shifted sharply. With both sides quibbling and unable to reach a settlement, he decided the best course of action was to
toss out both sides' cases
. He dismissed the lawsuits "with prejudice".
As Judge Koh experiences a similar "eye opening" experience regarding Apple legal's policy of irritating filings, one has to wonder whether Apple v. Samsung might face a similar fate.
The Verge
"This week I got an iPhone. This weekend I got four chargers so I can keep it charged everywhere I go and a land line so I can actually make phone calls." -- Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg

Thread: Weird Algae
Weird Algae
Anyone know what this is and how to manage permanently. Looks like a puff of smoke but is easily removed with tweezers - just floats there. But it keeps appearing and I don't know how to get rid of it completely other than manually.
And sorry for the size of this. Can anyone tell me how to reduce the picture size before uploading. It's being attached from a folder on my laptop.
If you want to up-load a pic that is easier to see, you can resize it following the instructions we have for entering pic in the comps, The same process for resizing should work here as well (link below)
Sorry, but I can't help resize the current pic. But is you want, you can try it again in another thread and I can delete this one if it worksIf you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.

I don't know the specific "species" of algae, but it looks like a filamentous "hair" algae. From what I see, do you have algae on other plants in the tank as well (small spots on the leaves)?
Please post more info on your tank setup: What size tank, what type of lighting, photoperiod and if the tank receives any "natural" light. That might help identify the root cause.
Yes, I battle algae in most of my tanks but I've never seen this species. I vary the lights. Used to be on all day from about 9 am to 8 pm. Lately I've been leaving them off during the day while at work and turn them on around 6:30 pm until 11:00. This is a 20 long tank.
There is java fern and anubias on the driftwood, couple of kinds of crypts, a couple of small swords, and I believe chain sword. I have a FugeRay LED light and I will admit I am not consistent
with Excel or ferts (I have used Flourish Comprehensive). I recently tried some dried ferts and wondering if this may have caused this new algae.

Both the Itawamba Indians and the Northeast Tigers baseball teams are trying to maintain their standing in North Division play.
The challenge for today is that the two will have to accomplish this feat against each other.
Northeast will pull onto the Itawamba campus for a doubleheader today, with Game 1 beginning at 3 p.m. The Tigers (24-13, 15-5) are currently in first place in the North, while the Indians (19-19, 9-9) are in fourth.
The top four teams in the North and South division qualify for the playoffs.
"We need to put up W's and we've got six games left," Itawamba head coach Rick Collier said. "There will be a lot of energy against Northeast, and there's going to be two good games."
previous matchup
Back on March 28, the two schools split a doubleheader, with Itawamba winning 3-2 in the first game, then Northeast rebounding with a 4-3 victory.
Collier expects to send sophomores Ben Hudspeth (5-3) from Tupelo to the mound in Game 1, with Dylan Earnest (5-2) from Hamilton slated to Game 2.
"There's a lot on the line every time Northeast and Itawamba matchup," Collier said. "There's a lot riding on this Saturday."
Itawamba is led in hitting by freshman Ethan Gill of Pontotoc at .348, and 25 RBIs.
Northeast head coach Kent Farris expects to counter on the mound with Kyle Stephenson (4-0) from Booneville and Tanner Gaines (4-1) from Baldwyn, both third-year sophomores.
"It's a big game for us due to the fact we're trying to keep playing well and host in the playoffs," Farris said. "Regardless, it's a big rivalry and means a lot to the players and the fans.
"We've been playing well of late, and would like to keep doing that."
Sophomore Will Robertson from Falkner leads Northeast in batting at .454 with 49 RBIs.

You had surgery to repair or replace one of your heart valves. Your surgery may have been done through a large incision (cut) in the middle of your chest, through a smaller cut between 2 of your ribs, or through 2 - 4 small cuts.
Most people spend 3 - 7 days in the hospital. You may have been in the intensive care unit some of the time, in the hospital, you may have begun learning exercises to help you recover more quickly.
It will take 4-6 weeks to heal completely after surgery. During this time, it is normal to:
The following are general recommendations. You may get specific directions from your surgical team. Be sure to follow the advice your doctor gives you.
Have a person who can help you stay in your home for at least the first 1-2 weeks.
Stay active during your recovery. Be sure to start slowly and increase your activity little by little.
Do not drive for at least 4 - 6 weeks after your surgery. The twisting movements needed to turn the steering wheel may pull on your incision.
Expect to take 6 - 8 weeks off work. Ask your doctor when you may return to work.
Do not travel for at least 2 - 4 weeks. Ask your doctor when you can travel again.
Return to sexual activity gradually. Talk openly with your partner about it.
For the first 6 weeks after your surgery, you must be careful how you use your arms and upper body when you move.
Do NOT:
Do these things carefully:
Stop any activity if you feel pulling on your incision or breastbone. Stop right away if you hear or feel any popping, moving, or shifting of your breastbone and call your surgeon's office.
Use mild soap and water to clean the area around your incision.
You may take showers, but only for 10 minutes at a time. Make sure the water is lukewarm. Do not use any creams, oils, or perfumed body washes. Apply dressings (bandages) the way your doctor or nurse showed you.
Do NOT swim, soak in a hot tub, or take baths until your incision is completely healed. Keep the incision dry.
Learn how to check your pulse, and check it every day. Do the breathing exercises you learned in the hospital for 4 to 6 weeks.
Follow a heart-healthy diet.
If you feel depressed, talk with your family and friends. Ask your doctor about getting help from a counselor.
Continue to take all your medicines for your heart, diabetes, high blood pressure, or any other conditions you have. Do not stop taking any medicine without talking with your doctor or nurse first.
You may need to take an antibiotic before any medical procedure or when you go to the dentist. Tell all of your health care providers (dentist, doctors, nurses, or nurse practitioners) about your heart problem. You may want to wear a medical alert bracelet or necklace.
Your doctor may ask you to take blood-thinning medicines to help keep your blood from forming clots. Your doctor might recommend one of these medicines:
Call your doctor or nurse if:
If you are taking blood thinners, call your doctor if you have:

Kurzweil K2500
The K2500 is another evolution of the amazing Kurzweil Sampler - Synthesizer - Workstations. Using their excellent V.A.S.T. synthesis and a professional Sampler option (S models) and Sequencer this is truly an elegant synthesizer with a full keyboard of 76 semi-weighted keys (88 full-weighted piano style keys on the K2500X), 8 real-time sliders, 2 ribbon controllers, pitch and mod wheels and total MIDI controllability. The amazing sounds are contained on 8MB (up to 28MB) of sample ROM, expandable to 28MB using optional sound ROM boards! State-of-the-art sampling is also available on the K2500S and K2500XS with an astonishing 64MB of RAM standard! And that's expandable to 128MB! A 32 track interactive song arranger is also on-board allowing you to create various and complex sequences and songs which can be triggered from a variety of sources. This sequencer is no slacker with pattern, linear, and step recording, cut, copy, paste, advanced groove quantizing, event list editing and other powerful editing tools with up to 16 songs and 16 arrangement tracks. Add stereo outs, eight individual outs, dual SCSI ports, digital I/O and you've got yourself a professional 'Production Studio'.
As a synthesizer, the K2500 is likely one of the most professional and superior instruments available. Very programmable, flexible and excellent sounding as you would expect from Kurzweil, following the amazing K2000 synths. The V.A.S.T. variable architecture synthesis has 60 DSP functions, 438 preset programs (238 ROM, 200 RAM) and is capable of amazingly realistic acoustic instruments and a diverse range of analog synth sounds and other unique sounds complete with multi-effects and real-time MIDI control.
The K2500S model adds a Sampling option with Extensive Sample Processing and a hi-tech real-time Live Mode V.A.S.T. and K.D.F.X. processing of external analog or digital signals, capable of interfacing with ADAT, TDIF and AES/EBU and receiving up to 8 digital channels at once via the DMTi (Digital MultiTrack Interface). Any of the synths parameters can be used to tweak the external audio signal in real-time and with 20-bit digital output! The K.D.F.X. option offers superb digital 4-stereo-bus multi-effects comparable to any modern rack-mount effects unit. The sampler has analog and digital I/O (AES-EBU, optional S/PDIF) and is capable of sampling while you play.
Of course the sampler offers all the advanced editing functions you'd expect from any professional quality sampler. DSP functions include time compression/expansion, pitch shifting, re-sampling, pasting samples on a beats per minute time line (Mix Beat), volume ramps, mix sample and many other functions.The DMTi option allows for data format and sample rate conversion directly with the Alesis ADAT and Tascam DA-88 machines. And the K2500 features Flash ROM upgradeability via diskettes and SCSI.
The K2500 Audio Elite System (AES, pictured above) is a Rolls Royce version of the K2500 masterpiece. It comes with every single option available to the K2500 and is fully expanded with ROM and RAM to the max! It also includes extra peripherals such as 2 DMTIs and a CD-ROM drive. And finally it has the most elegant and classiest look of any synthesizer ever! This is truly the World's most powerful and amazing Synthesizer ever...it list's for $19,995.00! The K2600 series is virtually identical to the K2500. With all the same and compatible options and features, the K2600 adds increased preset V.A.S.T wave memory with a standard 12MB expandable to 44MB as opposed to the K2500's 8MB expandable to 28MB. The K2600 series also dawns a sportier looking purple and black color-scheme. The K2500 has been used by Pink Floyd, Nine Inch Nails and ATB.

We sent summer interns Kyle Geary and Cody Tapp out to capture an inside look at the new exhibit which opens this weekend at Union Station. Real Pirates tells the true American story of the pirates that lived aboard the Whydah, a pirate ship that sank off the coast of Cape Cod in 1717. The ship was discovered in 1984 by Barry Clifford, an underwater explorer. This National Geographic exhibition tells the history of the ship, the story of the pirates, and features more than 200 artifacts from the ship.
The exhibit runs from June 22, 2013 through January 5, 2014.

Most wanted: Darth Plagueis, or at least a San Hill re-release so I can customize one.
Most wanted: Darth Plagueis, or at least a San Hill re-release so I can customize one.
That's my jacket!
2011 was a terrible year for Star Wars collecting, there's really not much else to say about it. I think this is the first year where I found myself completely uninterested in a majority of the toys offered.
I think having my most wanted figure, Kithaba, delayed an entire year for no good reason really hurt my enthusiasm for this hobby.
My favorite figure of 2011 remains the Weequay Skiffmaster. I do wish Hasbro had approached those shoulders a little bit differently, but I had wanted the figure for 28 years and he turned out really well.
Bom Vimdim is a close second for best of the year and, technically, he probably should win it, but I'll always prefer Skiff Guards to Cantina Patrons and this is MY list, so....
I wish I had at least seen a few of the Revenge of the Jedi figures in my area, but the stores that weren't clogged with that horrible wave 5 had nothing but empty shelves from August through December. It felt like the Star Wars line had been cancelled for the last 5 months of 2011.
Nothing else to really say. In summary... 2011. Horrible year. Glad it's over.
Looking forward to 2012 and my most wanted figures are:
2. Weequay
3. Nikto Skiff Guard
4. Sandstorm Lando (got him yesterday and he's awesome!)
5. Lightsaber Construction Luke
6. Nein Nunb
7. Pruneface
8. Mon Calamari Pilot
9. Sandstorm Leia
10. Colonel Cracken
No announced vehicles really capture my interest at all.
Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split. - Robert E. Howard

Choose the Right Box
Check for Drainage
Put In Your Potting Mix
Dress Up Your Window
Even if you have no yard at all, you can still look out your window at a beautiful garden. Window box gardens add color and interest to a home. They're easy to plant, too, if you follow a few simple steps.
First, you want to decide how your window box will look. It has to be able to withstand weather, so you can choose a box made of cedar, treated lumber, or even plastic. You can make one yourself, or find a good one at your garden center. Just make sure that it's as wide as your window. Also, remember that window boxes can be heavy and need to be properly secured.
Your window box should have drainage holes. If it doesn't, just drill into the bottom. If your box will overhang an area that shouldn't be dripped on, put a tray under it, or use a coconut husk lining to create space inside.
You want to use a top-quality potting mix for best results. Miracle-Gro� Organic Choice Potting Mix helps the soil retain moisture, so your plants aren't stressed.
The fun part of any garden is arranging the flowers. You can try putting in the same kind of flower in different colors. Maybe go for contrast with alternating white and red. You can add interest by planting taller plants in the middle, such as zinnias and geraniums, and plant trailing plants along the edge, such as ivy or vinca. You have many options, so let your imagination rule. For a big hit of color, bunch your flowers close together when you plant them.
Consistently water and feed your plants. Water occasionally so that the soil doesn't dry out. Pinch back old blooms to encourage new growth and maintain a cleaner look.

By Ben Levisohn
Just about everyone's happy with the Fed's decision not to taper–everyone that is but life insurers. The sector is receiving a beat down akin to the one Joe Pesci was administered in Casino after the Fed said tapering would not begin as investors had assumed.
MetLife (MET), for instance, has dropped 2.1% to $48.83, while Lincoln National (LNC) has fallen 2.4% to $43.87. Torchmark (TMK) has declined 1% to $72.05 and Prudential (PRU) is off 1% at $80.85.
It's not hard to see why life insurers are getting hit. These companies take in premiums from customers, payout what they need to and invest the rest. Higher interest rates and bond yields would have made the companies more profitable for the simple reason that they would have earned more on their excess cash. We heard about this yesterday at the Value Investing Congress, where higher investment returns was part of ValueAct's Jeff Ubben's bullish take on Willis Group (WSH).
Now, yields are falling and interest rates will likely remain lower for longer than many investors had expected. That means the insurers' investment gains will as well.

Perhaps no player acquisition process in all of sports is as scrutinized as the first round of the NFL Draft. So-called draft experts like Mel Kiper Jr., Todd McShay and Mike Mayock spew their opinions on television, while every fan has their own opinions about which players their favorite teams should select.
During the pre-draft period, questions are posed about all prospects, from Dan Marino to Peyton Manning. All players are questioned in form or another. So of course, the Dolphins first round pick Mike Pouncey had some questions surrounding him entering the draft despite being widely regarded as the best interior lineman in the 2011 draft. While all of the answers won't be finalized until Pouncey is on the field for the Fins, The Finsiders have talked with those who saw Pouncey play every snap at Florida to answer a few questions about the talented lineman.
Question: Can Mike be as good as his twin brother Maurkice, who made the Pro Bowl as a rookie with the Steelers in 2010?
What We Learned: Robbie Andreu, Florida beat writer for the Gainsville Sun, who covered both of the Pouncey twins, told us "The Florida coaches thought that Mike actually had a bigger upside that Maurkice." The offensive coordinator at Florida the past two seasons, Steve Addazio confirmed the statement, saying "At this point, he's a little ahead of where Maurkice was at the same point coming out [last year]." Andreu told us that while Maurkice may have been a year ahead of Mike last year; that Mike caught up to where his brother was and perhaps even surpassed him with his strong play in 2010. While the Pro Bowl may be a lofty expectation for a rookie, we know it definitely isn't out of the realm of possibility for Pouncey in 2011. That said, if he does play at center, as currently expected, he'll be competing against his brother for one of the two AFC Pro Bowl Center positions. Nothing like a little competition between siblings.
Question: There was a perception that Mike struggled with Shotgun snaps after switching to center from guard in 2010…fact or fiction?
What We Learned: Addazio said "That was the most overblown, media driven thing; that was ridiculous." Addazio went on to say that Mike had only three errant shotgun snaps during the season, all early in the season, which was similar to his brother the year before with the only difference being the Maurkice had Tim Tebow at QB in 2009 to cover-up some of those bad snaps. Mike didn't have that luxury early on in 2010, with a new, less-mobile quarterback at Florida in John Brantley. Addazio further explained the complexities of Florida's spread offense for a center and told us "That situation really won't arise in the pros," since most of the shotgun snaps in the pros are in obviously passing downs where the center isn't expected to be an aggressive lead blocker as is the case in Florida's spread option offense under Urban Meyer. We also asked Addazio where Pouncey would fit best along the offensive line: "He's comfortable at any position, right [guard], left [guard], center…he could play right tackle without a doubt in my mind, he's comfortable on the edge in space in pass protection, there's not anything he can't do; his versatility is incredible."
So hopefully the insight of former Florida Offensive Coordinator Steve Addazio and Gators beat writer Robbie Andreu have answered a few of your questions about Mike Pouncey.
Check out our other installments of our "Answering The Questions" series; as we discuss Daniel Thomas and Edmond Gates.

By Bobby Harrison/NEMS Daily Journal
JACKSON – House and Senate leaders reached agreement late Monday on charter schools – about 15 minutes before the 8 p.m. deadline.
Agreements also were reached on numerous other education issues, ranging from establishing a pre-kindergarten program to making superintendents in small districts appointed unless citizens vote to keep an elected superintendent.
Charter schools has been the most contentious education issue still alive. Lt. Gov., Tate Reeves had advocated a proposal where school boards in A and B districts could veto a charter school locating within their boundaries.
But the House negotiators insisted that school boards in C districts also have veto authority. Late Monday, Reeves and his Senate negotiators accepted the House position
"Though we hoped for a bill that would not send the message that 'C' was OK, we agreed to compromise to give 125,000 Mississippi children an opportunity for success," Reeves said.
Charter schools receive public funds, but do not have to adhere to many of the guidelines and governance of traditional schools.
Proposals advocated by Gov. Phil Bryant, such as tougher standards for teachers, an enhanced literacy effort in the early grades, also were agreed to Monday.
Those issues will be voted on today and Wednesday by the full Legislature.

In the March issue of Fur Fish Game www.furfishgame.com Judd Cooney has interesting article detailing his observations of wind effects on turkeys. It's good article I think many turkey hunters would like to read.
He concludes and makes the case why turkeys fly off roost into wind. I had not considered wind affecting the direction turkeys fly off roost. Although after reading this piece and thinking back, a lot of those "wrong way" turkeys were probably flying into the wind. I had not thought about wind effects at the time nor considered it during setup. Now it seems a duh why weren't you thinking moment?
Whenever it's windy I setup with the wind to my back-
1. Sound goes down wind better than up.
2. Turkeys prefer the wind pushing their feathers down rather than pushing them forward.
What other wind effects has anyone noticed?
Or don't be concerned about the wind?

About Jeff Masters
Cat 6 lead authors: WU cofounder Dr. Jeff Masters (right), who flew w/NOAA Hurricane Hunters 1986-1990, & WU meteorologist Bob Henson, @bhensonweather
By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 8:52 AM GMT on June 27, 2010
Update: Here's the 500AM EDT radar image from Belize. Alex's eye is roughly 150 km NW of the radar.
This Animated loop shows the development of Alex's eye. The page for Belize's radar is here.
The 500AM EDT forecast is a bit different than the previous forecast. Essentially, it looks like the area of high pressure in the northern Gulf of Mexico will weaken due to a trough over the eastern US. This will weaken the steering currents and slow's Alex's motion over the Gulf of Mexico. The reduced storm motion will give Alex more time to intensify in a a warm SST/weak shear environment. The current forecast calls for Alex to become a category 2 storm before making landfall north of Tampico, MX late Wed. night/early Thursday morning.
The $64,000 question is "Will the ridge continue to weaken, allowing Alex to move north and continue intensification?" The 12Z global model runs will have more accurate forecasts than the the 6Z runs thanks to the presence of radiosonde data, so hopefully they'll provide an answer. It's still my opinion that Alex will not directly impact the oil spill recovery efforts, but I can't say that the chances of it doing so are getting smaller now.
This is Dr. Rob Carver, filling in for Jeff during the late shift. Tropical Storm Alex is currently moving over the Yucatan peninsula. Alex's intensity has dropped to 50 knots in the latest advisory with further weakening expected as the storm moves over land. After Alex moves into the Gulf of Mexico, intensification is expected because of warm sea-surface temperatures and weak vertical wind shear. An area of high pressure in the northern Gulf of Mexico will guide Alex into a WNW-NW track. The 200AM EDT forecast calls for Alex to intensify into a category 1 hurricane before making landfall just north of Tampico, MX.
In my judgement, the chances of Alex moving northwards and directly interfering with the Deepwater Horizon oil spill recovery efforts are small and getting smaller with time. I agree with Jeff's assessment that Alex will generate 2+ foot swells that would interfere with skimming operations
Currently, the main threat from Alex is flooding due to heavy rains. NHC is forecasting rainfall amounts from 4 to 8 inches with higher amounts over mountainous terrain, causing flooding and possibly mudslides.
Fig. 1Forecast of 24-hour accumulated precipitation from TS Alex.
Alex's Belizean Landfall
Jeff saved this radar image of Alex making landfall.
Fig. 2Base reflectivity at 2315Z 26 June 2010 at Philip Goldson Airport
There isn't much storm structure apparent in the reflectivity data, just widespread areas of showers. Data from a nearby PWS shows that the peak windspeed was 43 mph. You can clearly see the circulation move past the station with changes in the wind direction and speed. You can also see when the rainbands passed over the station.
Invest 94L
Invest 94L is still out there, but it's not looking healthy. It's currently in an area unfavorable for tropical cyclogenesis and NHC thinks it has a 0% chance of becoming a tropical storm in the next two days. Current forecast models have 94L moving northwards and making a pass by Bermuda.
If things don't change significantly, Jeff is thinking about taking Sunday off. However, rest assured that if Alex starts charging towards the US, Jeff or I will put up a new entry. In any event, I'm planning on posting an update sometime late Sunday evening.

Deeplinks Blog posts about DMCA
It's a sign of the times that online companies' transparency reports are starting to include a new section: the Hall of Shame. Automattic, the company behind WordPress, is the latest to do so, highlighting examples of copyright and trademark overreach by prominent figures like Janet Jackson, as well as more local businesses, organizations, and individuals attempting to silence criticism and other noninfringing speech. It even highlighted one example we've written about—and even dedicated a short video to—in which a baked goods company misused trademark to go after bloggers talking about derby pie, a common regional dessert in the Southern U.S.
At a congressional hearing this morning, EFF Intellectual Property Director Corynne McSherry urged lawmakers to abandon the failed "anti-circumvention" provisions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA)—provisions that harm researchers, innovators, and technology users of all kinds.
It's been more than a year since Aaron Swartz's tragic death, and now Aaron's life is the subject of a new documentary, The Internet's Own Boy, directed by Brian Knappenberger. The documentary has received much acclaim and deservedly so. It tells the story of a political activist and innovator who put theory into practice, always experimenting and building new tools and methodologies to animate his theory of change.
It's increasingly rare for Congress to actually pass bills into law, but Friday brought some good news from Capitol Hill: More than a year after the exemption covering phone unlocking expired and a White House petition on the topic collected some 114,000 signatures, a narrow bill offering a limited carve-out for consumers unlocking phones made its way to the President's desk to be signed into law.
The murky copyright situation surrounding phone unlocking could get a little bit clearer, thanks to the new and somewhat improved Unlocking Consumer Choice and Wireless Competition Act, a bipartisan bill in the Senate.
As a refresher: the notion that phone unlocking might violate copyright law comes from an ill-conceived section of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) that prevents the circumvention of technical measures around copyrighted works. If such measures are understood to include restrictions on phone software, then unlocking may violate the DMCA—an outcome Congress never intended.

NY Times today:
The solicitations have been flooding peoples mailboxes lately: pay a bit more on your electricity bill for 100 percent clean wind power. Or, the fliers say, buy green power certificates to offset your global warming emissions.One reason might be that they think the added expense is too high. Solar and wind power generally cost more than power generated with fossil fuels. While many people support alternative energy in principle, they personally may not want to spend hundreds of dollars more for electricity, especially in the current economic environment.At least one major program has come under fire from regulators. Last year, a Florida Power and Light green power program, called Sunshine Energy, was terminated by the states Public Service Commission after an audit found that promised solar power facilities were far behind schedule. The program had more than 38,000 customers, and was once the sixth-largest in the country, according to the renewable energy laboratory.
The audit also found that the vast majority of homeowners payments went into marketing and administration.For example, the green power arm of a utility like Con Edison, of New York, might sell green power to its customers, then buy certificates for that amount of power on the open market. Green power advocates argue that such payments help new facilities get built, though they acknowledge that other factors, like bank financing, may play more important roles.
Paul Copleman, a spokesman for Iberdrola Renewables, a major developer, called the system of voluntary payments an essential component of wind farm financing, although he said that no particular Iberdrola project had been built just to supply the voluntary demand.Early this year, the city government of Durango, Colo., stopped buying renewable power from its utility, saving $45,000 a year. The clean electricity had cost 40 percent extra and the city manager, Ron LeBlanc, was irked that part of the payment went into putting solar panels on a school in a different city.
Paying more and then investing in a community 16 miles away was offensive to a lot of us, he said, adding that Durango was exploring other options to develop clean energy locally.Yes, I do believe that we need alternative energy solutions to reduce dependence on foreign oil. However, I'm not sure the mandatory govt interference is the way to get there. Obviously, there are several things that do not work ... including "buying green certificates" (IMO)The utility has since slashed the prices, and Roger Duncan, its general manager, said that Austin Energy might change its program so that its green power costs for future projects are spread to all customers not just the few who voluntarily pay extra.
If were going to transition to renewable energy, Mr. Duncan said, you cant depend on a small percent of the customer base to do this.

Guide for Evaluation and Treatment of Hepatitis C in Adults Coinfected with HIV (PDF)- HRSA/HAB has developed a guide for clinicians in the diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of hepatitis C (HCV) in the setting of HIV primary care. The guide is designed to serve as a quick reference in key aspects of HCV care and treatment for HIV-infected patients.
For many years, HRSA/HAB has endeavored to increase access to hepatitis C (HCV) treatment of HIV-infected patients in Ryan White-funded programs. In 2010, HRSA/HAB provided grants to 15 Ryan White funded clinics and one technical assistance/evaluation center to develop and evaluate models to integrate HCV treatment into HIV primary care through the Special Projects of National Significance (SPNS) program. In 2011, an additional 15 clinics will be added to this SPNS initiative. (posted April 11, 2011)

When brushing your teeth, position the bristles at an angle of 45 degrees near the gum line. Both the gum line and the tooth surface should be in contact with the bristles. Brush the outer surfaces of the teeth using a back-and-forth, up-and-down motion, making sure to be done gently in order to avoid bleeding. To clean the inside surfaces of the teeth and gums, place the bristles at a 45-degree angle again and repeat the back-and-forth, up-and-down motion. Lastly, brush the surfaces of your tongue and the roof of your mouth to remove bacteria, which might cause bad breath.

Get the Wolves newsletter
10:33 13th August 2013
Testimonial year kicks off
The countdown is on for the start of Jody Craddock's Testimonial Year as it will be officially launched on Wednesday 4th September with an exclusive training session led by the legend himself.
A select number of places are available (details below) for the first in a series of Testimonial events, which is being held at the state-of-the-art Sir Jack Hayward Training Ground in Wolverhampton. Alongside the Wolves and Sunderland legend will be Jody's former team mate at Molineux Matt Murray, while it's hoped – subject to availability – that Wolves Head Coach Kenny Jackett will also make an appearance.
The 'JC1' Training Day is a great opportunity to mingle with a pair of Wolves legends and live the life of a footballer for the day. It includes a tour of the Category One training facility, breakfast for the participants and then it's onto the training ground, where Jody and Matt will put you through your paces with a warm up and skills sessions. That's followed by two small sided games and a Buffet lunch. You can then quiz the former professionals in a Q&A to end what will be a day to remember forever.
Wolves' kit supplier PUMA have also kindly agreed to provide training tops for all of the participants on the day.
Thirty-eight-year-old Craddock, who officially retired at the end of the 2012/13 season, was awarded a testimonial in the summer. The popular defender is also fondly remember by Sunderland supporters for his six years at the Stadium of Light, while over 500 career appearances also included a spell at Cambridge United.
Jody will be raising money for two charities throughout the year, Balls to Cancer, for whom he is a patron, and Birmingham Children's Hospital, where his son Toby has received excellent care after being diagnosed for leukaemia.
He's looking forward to what's in store during his Testimonial Year and hinted at what's to come:
"Hopefully we will be able to put on some different events – including a match at Molineux – which supporters will find enjoyable.
"It is very early days but it would be great to get the 2008/09 promotion team at Wolves involved during the year in some capacity, as well as perhaps some of my former team-mates from Sunderland where I also spent six happy years.
"We will have to see what we can come up with, but I am looking forward to hopefully meeting as many fans as possible during the year and raising some money for charity."
Throughout the year, Jody will be looking to interact with fans at his events and via the Official Testimonial Twitter page @JC6Testimonial. There will be more opportunities to get involved with his Testimonial at future events, but the first one, the JC1 Training Day is an event not to be missed, so book your place now!
The price is £149 per person – contact the Commercial Department to book a place on 0871 222 2220 (option 4).

LFAC is supporting the Paediatric Endocrinology clinic in Kenyatta National Hospital, run by the University of Nairobi's Department of Paediatrics. Most of the patients have been buying insulin but often at the expense of buying food and paying school fees. The University is in the process of starting a diabetes centre of Excellence which will be used as part of the Pan African Training Programme in Paediatric Endocrinology run by the European Society for Paediatric Endocrinology (ESPE). 40,000 insulin syringes, 2,450 vials of insulin, and three boxes of quality diabetes education resources were shipped to Kenya in 2011.
