2014 NFL Draft
1) Justin Gilbert-DB OSU
2) Jordan Matthews-WR Vandy
3) Chris Borland-ILB Wisconsin
4) Caraun Reid, DT Princeton
5) De'Anthony Thomas-RB Oregon
5b) Ryan Carrethers-NT Arkansas State
6) Jeff Janis-WR Saginow Valley State
7) Colt Lyerla -TE Oregon
I believe past is past. The Steelers will lose people they wanted back. They may even cut a few they would have liked back for 2013. They just lose the "insurance" policy and put their faith in the young guys behind them. Really though...It isn't a big deal. It has to happen now or sometime soon.
I disagree...
I think the OP's point is that there is a difference between "wanting" a player back and a player they "would like to have"...
The latter is a luxury...the former is a necessity...
If the Steelers decide that they really want a player, they will work it out...
With that kind of rationale, couldn't the same be said of just about every team?
There are some players that the Steelers want to keep that they will not be able to keep because of salary cap constraints. But they're not going to sit there crying in their beer because they can't get it done...You're not going to hear them saying, "Dang, we couldn't get the guy we wanted, the sky is falling." Instead, they'll get to work and will find other, more affordable players to fill the roster slots. Hopefully, that will yield positive results on the field.
I agree with BHD here we go...
Mike Wallace or drafted rookie
Rashard Mendenhall or Dwyer, Redmond or rookie
James Harrison or Jason Worilds
Troy Polamalu or Robert Golden
Ike Taylor or Lewis (this is probably the only one where the existing option is okay - Lewis)
Kiesel or Heyward/Hood (Kiesel outplayed them both last year)
The Steelers will be releaseing/cutting players because of their salary and the cap situation. I have to believe they want to keep these guys, but the cap situation is going to prevent it. They may try to find a way to fit Troy into the mis, but it isn't going to be easy.

The Selected Letters of D.H. Lawrence
Edited by James T. Boulton For those people—and there are many of them—who don't enjoy Lawrence's novels, who find his views on women naive or his political views resistible, the letters reveal another part of his life that I think is very poignant. In the earliest volume, the letters concern his first job, the first books he read and his first visits to the theater (he managed to see Sarah Bernhardt in 1908). He's an innocent, zealous, open-minded fellow. Across the years, you read of how he was persecuted for his work and of his own phenomenal restlessness—all coalescing into feelings of rejection and disappointment. His emotions are absolutely laid bare, revealing a surprising sense of humor and a ferocious energy. The artist as tortured genius is absolutely reflected in these pages. He talks at one stage about that great work of art, a man's life—and that's what we find in this collection. Advertisement

We performed a mad thrash in an attempt to squeeze the car into the 9's at the end of the season, with a 9.94 at 134 MPH. The mad thrash taught us a few things, so we went right back to our friend Dave Zimmerman and his group of craftsmen at Team Z Motorsports for a few additional chassis updates to Project 666.

Project 666 Gets Stealth'ed With Aeromotive's New 6-Gallon Fuel Cell
by Andrew Wolf on January 23, 2012
With our mission to turn our Project 666 Fox body into a hardcore racing machine, our latest update involves the replacement of our OE-style Aeromotive fuel tank with the new six-gallon Stealth fuel cell armed with an internally-mounted A1000 fuel pump in the trunk of our nine-second Pony.
Wild Rides S-Box Torque Box on Project 666 Fox Body Mustang
by Jefferson Bryant on November 11, 2011
Launching on slicks or even drag radials puts an incredible amount of stress on the factory torque box, more than what it was designed for. Eventually, the cracks appear in the fatigued sheet metal and the mounting holes stretch out, which is why we turned to Wild Rides for our Project 666 Fox Body Mustang.
When it comes to building an engine that makes gobs of horsepower, you need a spark hot enough to correctly burn that additional fuel and air in the combustion chamber. For this tech feature, we are going to be installing a full Crane ignition system into our 666 Mustang Project car.
The car started out this year with a 408ci that made about 575 hp and was able to propel us in to the mid 10-second range in the quarter mile. But now it was time to install our badass high compression 427 that has been sitting for about two years… but the installation has been far from easy
The latest product from Innovate is their MTX-L all in one gauge, which only needs power, ground and a signal from the supplied wideband sensor. We install their newest, easy to use wide band sensor on our Fox body Mustang Project 666.
Project 666 Gets Lighter and Safer with Holcomb, Kirkey and Grant
by Shane McGlaun on August 1, 2011
Project 666 gets fitted with new Kirkey racing seats, Holcomb seat brackets, a lightweight race steering column, and more in the latest round of upgrades to our ten-second quarter mile screamer.
The race-intended TCI C4 improves upon the reliability and durability that the C4 has long been known for, which is just what we're looking for to mate with our naturally-aspirated, 427-inch Windsor motor producing nearly 700 horsepower. Join us for an in-depth look at TCI's take on the C4.
It might have been awhile since you have seen an update on our 666. The Mustang is going to be used as a temporary race car for the 2011 PSCA racing season. The class we plan to run is Limited Street, though the Mustang will be there just to gain points while the real car is being built.
Our Project 666 car, a 1986 5.0 Fox-body Mustang, has recently undergone an upgrade to a Wilwood brake kit. The new brakes, rotors and calipers made a huge difference in stopping power but still lacked that little something for outrageously quick, stop-on-a-dime performance.
With Project 666, our '86 Fox Body, we wanted to stuff a 275/60/15 Drag Radial on a 15 x 10 wheel and not have it look like a inner-city low rider with the wheels hanging out the wells. That meant it was time for the hammer. It was time – to clearance the wheel wells.
Tomorrow was going to be track day for Project 666. Everyone was ready to see what that old 'stang could do, I was excited to see what it could do, so we took it for a leisurely spin.
Recently we changed the brake system to a Wilwood racing system that included larger front rotors, replacing the rear drums with large rotors, and a set of super race calipers, along with a Wilwood Aluminum tandem master cylinder. But in order to make it manly, we converted our brake system to a manual.
Today was prep day for a test and tune session at the drag strip tomorrow. Part of getting ready for the track is installing a roll stop so we could do monster, tire-shredding burnouts.
You learn a little something new everyday. Today's lesson with our Project 666 Mustang; Ford 2G alternators and fires.
We started today to prep our Project 666 to begin the engine and tranny swap, by draining the engine and transmission fluids, removing the exhaust, and other components.
Steve and I have been wrenching away on our Project 666 car this week, in preparation for some new drive train components. Specifically, the engine and transmission. Like Steve wrote in the previous blog, we have identified our replacements, but our first task was to get the stock stuff outta the way.
Pro Power begins the engine build for Project 666 with a goal of not only making 675 plus horsepower, but also be able to hold together at redline through every shift and every quarter-mile trek.
When it comes to shoehorning a new, bigger engine into the framerails of a Fox Body Mustang, the stock hood isn't very useful. The simple solution is to find an aftermarket hood that will accommodate the increase in engine size and we found a company that could meet all of our demands, and that company is Cervini's Auto Design.

To give our Fox some hook – we went to one of the top suspension drag doctors in the country: Dave Zimmerman's Team Z Motorsports. Follow along as we not only install a complete Team Z system front and rear – but also give you some key insider setup times from Dave Z. himself.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Police K9s can sniff out drugs, bombs and dangerous suspects, but even they get skittish around a swimming pool for the first time.
Kanawha County Sheriff's Sgt. Ron Mathis and a group of K9 officers trained their dogs at the Coonskin Park swimming pool on Tuesday.
Every year just before the end of summer, the swimming pool is opened for Mathis and his police dogs. The dogs think it's one big game of catch and a chance to be rewarded with treats. But Mathis knows exposing the dogs to the water is an important part of their training.
"It's about socializing the dogs to a water environment," Mathis said. "If we were conducting a track of a suspect and we came upon a creek, it would not be a big deal to them."
Mathis likened the swimming training to exposing the dogs to the sound of gunfire. But some dogs are better with the water than others.
Kanawha Deputy Jeremy Ferrell had to get in the pool and pretend to be hurt before his K9, Scout, would jump in after him. The dog's protective nature overrode any fear of being around a swimming pool for the first time.
"If you ever get attacked in your swimming pool, you know you'll be OK," a fellow deputy joked.
Mathis' K9, DEA, was afraid of the water at first but eventually wanted to swim in the deep end before the training was over, he said.

Unexpected Development
I just finished reading Unexpected Development by Marlene Perez.
Perez's novel is funny, touching, and serious. The book's framing device is an essay she's writing in Senior Honors English: "How I Spent My Summer Vacation." (Megan agrees with you that it is a very lame assignment, particularly for an Honors class.) Since this is entirely in first person, the humor comes not from situations but from Megan's voice (sarcastic, funny, insightful) and her view of things.
Body image is central to this book: Megan has big breasts; since fifth grade, guys don't look above the collarbone. Megan deals with this by using humor, oversized clothing, and saving for breast reduction surgery. It was hurtful to read how many guys thought that Megan's chest size invited rude comments and allowed for touching. Her belief that guys are interested in her physical developments is shown as having some basis (freshman year started with an unwanted groping), but this summer her crush, Jake, is showing interest. Can Megan trust him? Can she trust her own feelings?
What is refreshing about this book: Megan's problems aren't solved overnight. By the end, she is more comfortable with the size of her chest and wearing clothes that aren't as loose & baggy, but she still isn't wearing clothes that fit. Perhaps I watch a little too much What Not To Wear, but I half expected a scene where Megan found out the problem was she was wearing the wrong size bra! That didn't happen, and her makeover was not so much a makeover as Megan becoming a little more comfortable with her body. What is also refreshing is the treatment of surgery: its treated seriously and respectfully. It's not dismissed as superficial.
Also with the like: the treatment of teen sex and sexuality, and Megan's own confusion over what she wants and what she wants. There are no rights or wrongs, just a lot of believable confusion.
Former lawyers have to be less picky about some details: I wanted the "groper" to pay! In court! And even though I know its realistic that people like that get away with what they do, I wanted justice. I wanted him sent to Oz.

Local protest10 arrested at New Matamoras brine storage siteFebruary 20, 2013NEW MATAMORAS—Ten people were arrested during a Tuesday anti-fracking protest at a New Matamoras business, including a man who spent nearly five hours chained to a 30-foot-tall structure he erected...... luvthesouthquite a few out-of-towners arrested for a "local" protest. incidentally, your ohio epa and state department of natural resources should ensure the safety your water quality. if they haven't exhibited due diligence, then maybe the protest needs to shift its focus. 11 Agrees | 8 Disagrees | Report Abuse » luvthesouthworkingstiff is correct in his post. the civil disobedience as well as the trespassing exhibited a lack of consideration against those that were just doing their job. cheap advertising for the cause. i will make the assumption that they would not care for the company sending people to disrupt their lives in such a manner. 12 Agrees | 11 Disagrees | Report Abuse » mttahillerIt is salt water for crying out loud. Is there trace amounts of chemicals in there? YES but it is not nearly as toxic as other things already shipped via barges everyday. These people drove thier cars, used thier electronics, live thier life the way they do thanks to the petroleum industry. Hydraulic fracturing has been used in the oil and gas industry for decades. Get a life and go back to where ever you came from. 16 Agrees | 12 Disagrees | Report Abuse » blacksheepExactly right hiller! How much fuel did they waste driving from Athens to the metropolis of New Matamoras to climb a pole?! Next time if they want to make a statement concerning oil and gas, don't drive, ride a horse. Or maybe a ******* cause they seemed to have plenty of those running around!!!! 8 Agrees | 12 Disagrees | Report Abuse » JoshBrownI don't care if they have been using Fractal drilling since the being of time Fractal fluid cause cancer. Anything with benzine in it will cause cancer it's a fact not fiction.This is America not China we shouldn't have to make our families sick and dying for new jobs. 13 Agrees | 13 Disagrees | Report Abuse » LuLuLuJoshBrown: Your facts are as inaccurate as your spelling of BENZENE. May I suggest some research on your part so you don't appear ignorant! 7 Agrees | 9 Disagrees | Report Abuse » JoshBrown@ LuLuLu Thanks You for the spelling correction but Benzene still causes cancer link to fact sheet : ***********bt.cdc.gov/agent/benzene/basics/facts.asp 7 Agrees | 4 Disagrees | Report Abuse » JoshBrownThe oil/gas drillers are going to dump and run they know the well's are short lived and by the time people start getting sick they will be long gone with no one to sue. 10 Agrees | 6 Disagrees | Report Abuse » lonewolf26155Okay, so now these flakes have had their 15 minutes of fame and made it on to WTAP. We fracked here 30 years ago and no one said anything. Quite frankly, I am more worried about what the chemical plants are putting in the river than I am about recovered frack water. Being ex New Mat I am offended by these idiots coming to my old hometown and giving us more negative press 8 Agrees | 8 Disagrees | Report Abuse » JoshBrown@lonewolf26155 Fractal drilling has been done for the last 30 years what does that mean ? 4 Agrees | 5 Disagrees | Report Abuse » lonewolf26155The last big oil boom there was a considerable amount of fracking going on in the county. This was in 1979-80. All the big companies that did fracking then were here, Dowell, Haliburton. Nobody said anything about it then, so why are a bunch of treehuggers creating unwanted problems in an ara that so desperately needs jobs? 11 Agrees | 8 Disagrees | Report Abuse » KnowsbestYeah I saw what happened to peoples water wells back then and all these companies did was just like the republican party " deny , deny, deflect, and lie ! 10 Agrees | 12 Disagrees | Report Abuse » JoshBrown@lonewolf26155 People not wanting their kids to get cancer and die aren't tree hugger there people who care about their families. 9 Agrees | 8 Disagrees | Report Abuse » formermttanWonder how many drink diet pop? How many use curly light bulbs? How many give their children immunizations? Use computers, laptops, cell phones? All contain hazardous materials. And that is just to name a small fraction of the things that contain chemicals in everyday things. These people need to use their energy in more constructive ways, like earning a living. 11 Agrees | 9 Disagrees | Report Abuse » lonewolf26155Knowsbest, if you wanna talk about lies and deflecting blame, look no farther than your president, he's pretty good at it! 12 Agrees | 10 Disagrees | Report Abuse » JoshBrown@formermttan So your saying it's ok because everyone else does it ? Just add to the toxic crap that our children are exposed to? Sounds rather cold blooded and just plain mean to want to kill children for new jobs . 8 Agrees | 11 Disagrees | Report Abuse » cuttingorbWhen this happens and property values are down and people getting sick you will see the point these folks are protesting for....I for one don't want my children or grand children getting cancer like I said we are not the dumping pool here 7 Agrees | 10 Disagrees | Report Abuse » citizencanejosh, it sounds like you've been getting your information from a lot of unfounded sources. Child killing? Really? There are a heck of a lot more threats to our children than fracing! These people have absolutely no concern for OUR community--just look at their hometowns listed. It is simply a lame attempt for publicity and their own political agenda. I love how they are "concerned" about our health but not with obeying the law. If that clown had fallen from his little perch, you can bet he would have been suing somebody! 11 Agrees | 8 Disagrees | Report Abuse » JoshBrown@citizencane Why would you want to expose the children of this county to more toxic waste ? 7 Agrees | 9 Disagrees | Report Abuse » citizencaneJosh, You are making assumptions that children would be exposed. Where are your numbers to back up that assumption? Fracing is not a new process, it has been used for decades. It is just now receiving attention because of the increased activity and more widespread use. If you don't believe companies are striving for more safety and less environmental impact these days, you aren't doing your homework. 10 Agrees | 7 Disagrees | Report Abuse » oneillThe hydraulic-fracturing wells of today are not "yer grand-daddy's little ole gas-well!" ... The problem goes beyond "fracking" - for some reason, south-east Ohio has been selected as a dump-site for chemically-treated fracking waste that is "injected" into sometimes old and abandoned wells. it gets into the ground-water & streams, and - despite the hysterical claims of deniers who hope to make a quick buck from investing in fly-by-night operations - DOES cause cancer and other ailments ... Read today's excellent TIMES editorial & re-read yesterday's story about the local man killed in Taylor County. What are called "Condensate Tanks" (if not maintained properly) sometimes explode! 7 Agrees | 10 Disagrees | Report Abuse » oneillDue to environmental laws, most of the major outfits do try to obey the law (because of the bad p.r. more than conscience), but there are many fly-by-night outfits in these here parts that DON'T CARE! ... Sometimes citizens have to call attention to these polluters. Self-absorbed folks like the Stiff and Lone Wolf can whine and call pople "hippies" or "tree-huggers" to their hearts' content, but it doesn't change the truth about these outfits that are endangering our children's air and water! 4 Agrees | 11 Disagrees | Report Abuse » citizencaneThe accident in Taylor has absolutely nothing to do with fracing. That's like mentioning a recent plane crash in a discussion about drunk driving. 11 Agrees | 4 Disagrees | Report Abuse » JoshBrown@ oneill&citizencane Fractal fluid Has chemicals in it that case cancer this is a Fact not fiction.It doesn't matter if a well was drilled last night or 500 years ago cancer is cancer.Neither one of you can prove that there isn't fractal fluid in the water table already.The only way it can be proven that it's not in the water table is if people don't get sick and die.So more or less both of you want to take a chance with other people's lives and families. 4 Agrees | 7 Disagrees | Report Abuse » Showing 25 of 105 comments Show More Comments

As my DS would say..........schweeeeeeeeeet!!!
I do so appreciate that Damon did spend LOTS of money in western PA to film this bomb. Thanks Matt! Now don´t mind me while I turn up the natural gas furnace as it is frrreezing here today.
Hopefully, it won´t even break even!! heh heh
When they first announced this movie, they could have asked anyone here what sort of bomb it was going to be.But those ´´wise lie-berals´´ in Hollyweird never ask us.You would think they would want to know what sorts of movies would get us back into theaters. But they know they wouldn´t like the answers we would give.I really expect to see this one in the $5 DVD bin at Wal-Mart in a few weeks...
His investors from the United Arab Emirates will not be pleased, they wanted a propaganda victory against US domestic energy production.
Same with the anti-Bush anti-Iraq war films. Bombs away!The silent majority votes with their wallets.
Krasinski joins the long list if actors etc. who don´t get my money or my viewership.
There really is justice for lying liars isn´t there?
"Hi, It´s John Krasinski. Is Matt, my newest, bestest buddy there?""Master Damon is not taking your calls. He requests that you do not contact him anymore."
He probably got some of the money from the fiscal cliff bill in from the Hollyweird portion or from the green energy portion so he will be compensated.
Gollywood no longer depends on box office returns for profits. We pay thru huge grants from Obie that compensate them.. Plus invites to great parties!Once the´ve had enough partying... I am hoping some remember what it was like to be able to decide which movies they want to make vs producing ordered propaganda hit pcs.
Do we wonder why Americans were working in Algeria on natural gas exploration?Thanks to O our energy experts are out of work here in the USA thanks to Obama.To think a man from Colorado is working in Algeria while Salazar, from Colorado, banned all exploration on federal lands.Bless those who lost their lives. The blame lies squarely on this evil president.
Good.My brother told me when he was shopping for houses in Western New York, it was not unheard of for one to have its own gas well.I´m not worried about fracking.
Maybe they just should re-name the movie SNAFU -Situation Normal All Fracked Up
I´m really looking forward to watching this film with Joel, Crow, Tom Servo and Gypsy. Sounds like a perfect candidate for MST3K.
They need not worry. It will be shown at every public school.

It's February and time to take down your Christmas decorations and hang your EAA calendar if you haven't already done so. We didn't see much of the sun here in Illinois during the month of January, so it's hard to imagine lush green grass and blue sky out the hangar door. But it's all coming in only two months, and the fly-in schedule is already filling up. If your local chapter hasn't yet selected a date for a public-invited fly-in, it's time to get started.

I think fixed-wing pilots have become a lot more creative about owning aircraft than ultralight and light-sport pilots. They've needed to because general aviation aircraft have been incredibly expensive for a very long time. But ultralights had been relatively affordable once, inviting individual ownership. When my wife and I first got into ultralight aviation, we had "his and her" trikes - nice. Read more

DUTCHESS COUNTY -- Mid-Hudson Subaru is kicking off the holiday season with their annual holiday coat drive. Saturday was the first day of the drive, and event organizers said they already collected nearly 500 coats.
Those participating said it's an honor to donate coats to help those in need. This year, many of the coats will be brought downstate to Sandy victims.
"We pride ourselves on the fact that this is a local coat drive, it goes to local people in the community who are in need, and it is donated by local people. This year is a little bit of extenuating circumstances with Sandy, and we are going to step up," said Peter Maher, Mid-Hudson Subaru owner.
The Dutchess County Sheriff's Department will help distribute the coats that are staying local. Mid-Hudson Subaru is accepting coats for donation through the end of the year.

Making the Most of Your Commute to Work
Granted my morning commute is a lot shorter than it used to be because I telecommute, now. However, I still spend about an hour in the car every morning driving my son to and from private school.
On the way to school, I like to take advantage of the time my son and I have together, just the two of us to catch up and talk about what we're looking forward to during the day. Oftentimes, my son will ask me to use the Pandora radio app on my iPhone to play his favorite: Jack Johnson. Other days we'll listen to the Disney station on Sirius/XM.
However, on the drive back home I like to take advantage of that commute time to get a head start on my day, to connect with family and friends, and a leg up on my career. It's my hope that sharing these ideas with you will make your commute a little less frustrating, a little more productive, and in some cases...more fun.
When there's a business book I want to read to stay ahead of the game with in my industry or within my role, I always check to see if there's an audiobook version available first. Most audiobooks are about six hours in length, so by listening to one on that half hour drive back everyday, I could get through one book in a couple of weeks. Most people I know here in the DC Metro area commute anywhere from eight to fifteen hours a week and could get through a book a lot faster. It's great way to stay sharp, develop professionally, and doesn't cost a whole lot. Google "audiobooks" to find downloads, some companies even offer a trial subscription with a deep discount to start so you don't have a lot to lose by trying this.
If the thought of sitting through a whole book sounds tedious but you still want to use your commute time to hone your business skills, there are companies that offer abstract versions of the books delivered in an MP3 format. These are summaries of those same business books, condensed in more digestible lengths for those who have shorter attention spans. Google "business book summaries" to get started.
Sometimes our first reaction to a request for a conference call or phone meeting during our morning commute is to decline and ask that it be pushed forward when we know we'll have arrived at the office. Why not say yes to that phone call during your commute time. Of course, I recommend this with the caveat that you do so with a hands-free device. A lot of newer model cars also offer Bluetooth integration with the cars' speakers, I personally use this feature a lot and can even voice dial while I'm driving as well.
With that said, these phone calls don't have to be limited to business calls. While many of my friends' and family members' don't complete jive with mine. A lot of us are commuting or doing school drop-off around the same time. And for a few of us, this is the most opportune to time to catch up because our days and evenings are even more hectic. And I'll admit, sometimes a great call with my mom, stepmom, or mother-in-law can motivate me for the rest of the day.
Finally, don't ever underestimate the power and significance of the alone time the commute allows us. Sure, sitting in traffic is not fun especially when you're surrounded by people who can't drive. However, if you shift your mindset a bit, you can turn that alone time into a blissful part of your day when you can recharge. There are days when I turn on the 90s station on my satellite radio and completely rock out, singing along to Ace of Base at the top of my lungs. Who cares that the person in traffic next to me is looking at me like I'm a complete lunatic. It feels good! And it's a great way to start the day.
Now some of these ideas will work if you take a different mode of transportation to work...some won't.
What about you? How long is your commute each day and what do you do to make the most of it?

A More Acidic Ocean May Wipe Out Antarctic Krill
A new study published Sunday in Nature Climate Change finds that ocean acidification could cause the Southern Ocean Antarctic krill population to crash by 2300, meaning dire consequences for whales, seals, penguins, and the entire ecosystem it supports. In addition to devastating ecosystem effects, a collapse in krill populations could have serious economic implications, as the species represents the region's largest fishery resource.

When this season started I professed to the world that I would not be another one of those guys that just harped on every little bad thing that the team did. As it turns out, it's good that I held onto that idea as long as I did; there are just too many things. However, now that my optimism has turned into skepticism I find it hard not to complain about something.
Michael Jordan needs to fire Paul Silas.
Yes, you've heard me complain about the man before, but his abject refusal to even try to win a game has me shocked that he's still got a job. I can't stand that he's having his son coach the team. It's not his job. Paul needs to be doing whatever he can to lead the team to victory. That doesn't include getting his son experience as a head coach.
This alone is enough for me to fire him if I ran the team. The fact that he didn't even try to have the team do something when they were only down by five with 14 seconds left Wednesday night against the T-wolves was just absurd. At the least he should have had the guys foul Minnesota and make sure they earned the win.
I could care less that the man came out of retirement to coach the team or that he's 68; no one made him take the job. Being tired is no excuse to do a shoddy job down the stretch. It's no wonder that the team packs it in on occasion. I guess the players think it's okay to pack it in since the head coach does.

This is a very important piece of information. You likely are aware that there have been long-running studies to compare the efficacy of tamoxifen vs. letrozole (Femara, one of the AIs) in reducing recurrences in post-menopausal women. This is a short summary from the New York Times re a recent Lancet article. If you have time and interest to read more, I also am including the Lancet link.
Regimens: Better Blocker of Breast
Cancer Recurrence
By ANAHAD O'CONNOR
The breast cancer drug letrozole reduces the chances that a woman's cancer will return and improves her odds of survival to a greater degree than tamoxifen, a widely used estrogen blocker, according to a new analysis.
The study is the latest installment in a long-running trial comparing treatment after surgery in postmenopausal women who have breast cancers that are estrogen-receptor positive, or sensitive to estrogen. Those cases account for about 60 percent of all breast cancers. The study involved 8,010 women and looked at two treatments: letrozole (brand name Femara) or tamoxifen taken alone for five years or both drugs taken in sequence, one for two years followed by the other for three years. The women were followed for more than eight years on average.
Women given letrozole for five years after surgery had a 20 percent lower risk of breast cancer recurrence and were 21 percent less likely to die during the study, compared with those who were given only tamoxifen, long the gold standard. Neither combination of drugs significantly lowered the likelihood of recurrence or death compared with taking letrozole alone, researchers found.
The study was published online this month in The Lancet Oncology and was financed in part by the National Cancer Institute and Novartis, the maker of letrozole.

OMGoodness Don't you dare not like you at 40. Let's only hope you turn 40 a few more times, My Goodness!
Molly Sims not excited to turn 40
Former SI Swimsuit model Molly Sims says turning 40 makes her "want to vomit in her mouth"
Arnold Palmer once said, "It is a rare and difficult attainment to grow old gracefully and happily." Molly Sims is among those Palmer was speaking of. The former SI Swimsuit model turns 40 next month and the special day, as she so delicately put, "makes me want to vomit in my mouth."
It's not all doom and gloom for Sims – her son Brooks will turn 12 months old shortly after so she has something to be excited about. And like most new moms, she can't get over how fast her son is aging: "Brooks is teething badly," Sims told US Weekly. "We have six teeth. We're very early to have [that many] teeth, and we're drooling and he's having a hard time," she shared. "But, you know, he's so fun and his smile and everything is new and it's so fun to watch him. It brings me so much joy. I have to say it's the most content I've ever been in my life." So while Sims acclimates to a new life and a big birthday, SwimDaily takes a look at some of her best swimsuit photos.

My grandma Thelma had an interesting view on recipes. She didn't really follow them. Her organization in the kitchen was somewhat of a puzzle. Recipes were written on the back of envelopes, or on any scrap paper she could find at the time. One would think her cooking would taste horrible, but surprisingly not. There were a few bombs, but she had her signature recipes — prune cake (It tastes better than it sounds) and cranberry salad to name a few — that were constant stars on the holiday table. Sure, there were green beans, turkey, dressing, rolls and mashed potatoes as well. But all I remember is the bright, glistening cranberry salad in the large bowl. It was the jewel of every holiday in the Parsell household. It was so popular she brought the dessert to church potlucks, and others wanted the recipe. She wrote it down, but forgot a few necessary steps. Her church friend ended up with cranberry Jell-O soup.
Luckily, my mother got the correct recipe and the tradition continues, even after my grandma's passing in 2002. The famous cranberry salad is non-negotiable, so is homemade pumpkin pie. Oh, and the sweet potato casserole is a must. Now my mother's style is more organized; she plans, organizes and then plans some more. So far, we have only forgotten the rolls once. We ate them with dessert, I think. During the holidays, I think my mom turns into a star chef. She learned from her mother and grandmothers, who also had favorite recipes we still make today. One of our favorite family stories is when my brother — he was probably a toddler, maybe older — said, "Mommy, your the best cooker in the world." Matt also liked to hum while he ate, letting everyone know how much he appreciated his food. If he lived in West Virginia, he would probably request his favorite, potato salad. He can eat my mom's recipe by the gallon. Forget spooning it in a bowl; he eats it straight from the serving dish. One year, he called from Tennessee requesting the recipe for pumpkin pie. Mom was happy to repeat it over the phone. I don't know if she was more happy her son could actually cook or excited to pass on a recipe.
We are like most families in southern West Virginia. Our recipes are handed down from former generations and learned at the hands of our mothers and grandmothers. My mom didn't grow up with celebrity chefs or the Food Network. Instead, she relied on the Betty Crocker Cookbook, church cookbooks and family and friends recipes. Even I left my signature on those old cookbooks. I circled my favorite recipes in black permanent marker. Or marked the ones I planned to make when I grew up and had my own kitchen. I also wrote on the back of my mom's recipe cards. Apparently I was an early food critic.
I am still somewhat of a food critic around the holidays. Not that I go around circling recipes, but I pressure my mom into cooking all of our favorites. I am a traditionalist at heart, despite the influx of new ways to make dressing. My mom and I talk about switching things up. Those celebrity chefs on the Food Network are very persuasive, almost to the point of giving up my beloved side dishes. However, we have yet to modernize our Thanksgiving dinner. We have tried a few new things over the years. Nothing too drastic. I don't want to get carried away. My mom rolls her eyes at me a lot during the holidays. My traditionalist view can be unwavering, often stubborn. I promise it isn't about the food. I would be grateful sitting around eating pizza, as long as my family is together. My stubborn attitude about traditions are centered around the memories associated with the sights, smells and sounds of Thanksgiving.
The truth is that I don't want to forget those dishes and recipes of my childhood. When my mom sets down the crystal bowl full of cranberry salad, it is almost like my grandma in the kitchen again. And when the pumpkin pie is cut and my dad takes a huge piece, I remember the first time he put Cool Whip on my small slice.
I am grateful for those memories. Rachael Ray, Paula Deen and Martha Stewart can't create that extra touch with their recipes. Only family can bring gratitude and memories to the dinner table.

Expect some whitening with full coverage of all natural Zinc Oxide sunscreens. The best protection from the sun is to avoid exposure during peak hours and to wear protective clothing and a hat. Children under 6 months: consult a pediatrician.
Badger loves babies! We allow moms to bring their new babies to work and we formulate our baby products to be as safe, simple, natural and effective as possible. After all, we use them on our own babies! We've listened to moms' concerns about sunscreens and we formulated our new Baby Sunscreen to be totally safe for babies and the environment with superior broad spectrum protection using mineral zinc oxide. Our Baby Sunscreen has a mild scent of Chamomile and Calendula, and it can be used by the whole family.
Badger Baby Sunscreen:
SPF, or Sunburn Protection Factor, is a measure of how well a sunscreen will protect skin from UVB rays, the kind of radiation that causes sunburn and can contribute to skin cancer.
The SPF scale is not linear:
So, one way of looking at this is that SPF30 sunscreen only gives you 4% more protection than SPF15 sunscreen.
Or, another way of looking at it is:
So, while you may not be doubling your level of protection, an SPF30 will block half the radiation that an SPF15 would let through to your skin.

Pediatric cervical spine surgery is a treatment option for children who have cervical spine injuries or abnormalities. Cervical spine injuries may occur in birth trauma, motor accidents or other trauma. Cervical spine abnormalities may occur when bone abnormalities present at birth (congenital) compress the skull on the brainstem or upper cervical spinal cord. This compression may cause abnormal development or spine destabilization. Pediatric cervical spine abnormalities are uncommon, but often occur in children who have Down syndrome, various forms of dwarfism, Klippel-Feil syndrome or bone disorders.
In pediatric cervical spine surgery, a surgeon removes the bony structures or abnormalities pressing on your child's brainstem or spinal cord. Surgery may help to prevent long-term loss of neurological function, deformity and chronic pain.
At Mayo Clinic, a surgeon trained in treating children who have brain or nervous system conditions (pediatric neurosurgeon) and other doctors evaluate your child and determine whether cervical spinal surgery is the most appropriate treatment.
Your treatment team will discuss your child's condition and treatment options with you. Pediatric cervical spine surgery can be challenging because children have smaller bones and surgeons must account for a child's future growth and development. Mayo Clinic surgeons have experience performing pediatric cervical spine surgery.
Surgeons may approach the spinal cord or brainstem through your child's mouth (transoral approach), through an incision in the front or back of the neck or through an incision in the back. In the transoral approach, surgeons sometimes use a flexible tube with a camera at the tip (endoscope) to conduct the procedure. Surgeons determine which surgical approach is most appropriate depending on the location of the bone abnormalities. Surgeons remove bony structures or small pieces of bone pressing on the front or back of the spinal cord or brainstem (decompression).
If your child's spine is unstable after the bony structures are removed, surgeons may insert plates, screws or bone grafts to help stabilize the spine. Surgeons may use bone grafts from another part of your child's body or from donated bone.
Pediatric cervical spine surgery may help prevent progression of neurological symptoms caused by cervical spine injuries or abnormalities, stabilize your child's condition, and help improve your child's condition.

Heavy Unit
From ErfWiki
Contents |
[edit] Proposed Canon
Heavy units are a Class of unit that have the "Heavy" natural ability. Most of those seen thus far are considered the most powerful non-Commander units; presumably, since the only known Heavy 'abilities' are nerfs, the unit receives compensatory buffs that make it extremely useful in situations where their nerfs do not apply. Most heavy units are restricted from entering Tunnels, for example, and can't ride Mounts. (Specifically, they can climb aboard, but the mount cannot bear them and move normally.)
Heavy units may spontaneously pop in Ruins.
Some units can be promoted to Heavy,Erf-b2-p48 such as Hobgobwin Knights.
According to LIAB Text 39, being made a Heavy gave the hobgobwin Fud: "newly powerful legs, newly powerful fists, and newly powerful arms"
[edit] Known Heavy Units
- Animated Units
- Tchotchkes
- Golems, Cloth, Battle Bears
- Golems, Cloth, G-RAFs
- Golems, Cloth, LFNs
- Golems, Cloth, Tankeroos
- Flying units
- Humanoid
- Twolls
- Natural Allies
- Hobgobwins, Parson promotes them to heavy units in LIAB 48
- Giants
- Mounts
- Plants
- Summoned units
- Undefined
[edit] Speculation
Heavy Units may be unable to enter many terrain types besides Tunnels which could vary from unit to unit. Apparently, most heavies cannot enter tunnels, however Sourmanders, Tchotchkes and Spidews are exempt from this for example. It is possible that heavy is a classification with sub-classifications such as "Heavy (Tunnel faring)" or "Heavy (Small)" for example. Or that "Tunnel faring" is a separate special which can be stacked with the "Heavy" special undoing the nerf.Erf-b1-p098a, summer-updates-002
Human Knights can also apparently be heavies. Lord Crush encounters a pair of them in Squashcourt, though he doesn't explicitly identify their race.WB2014 Lord Crush - Part 5

Asahi buys NZ firm for $1.3 billion in pre-mixed drinks
- Tweet
- Share this
TOKYO (Reuters) - Asahi Group Holdings (2502.T) is acquiring New Zealand beverage group Independent Liquor for $1.3 billion, giving the Japanese brewing giant a ready-to-drink cocktail maker to add to its stash of assets in the Oceania market.
Japanese brewers have been on an overseas spending spree, mainly in Asia and Oceania due to their proximity and growth prospects, as they look to make up for a contracting home market.
Overseas expansion is crucial to boost revenue growth as Asahi, the maker of Japan's top-selling "Super Dry" beer, struggles with a home beer market that shrank more than 15 percent in shipment volumes in the last decade.
In its biggest acquisition, Asahi said on Thursday it will buy all outstanding shares of Flavoured Beverages Group, the parent company of Independent Liquor known for its "Woodstock Bourbon" and "Vodka Cruiser" brands, from private equity firms Unitas and Pacific Equity Partners (PEP).
"With domestic demand weak, I have absolutely no disagreement with Asahi's strategy of seeking growth overseas," said Shigeo Sugawara, senior investment manager at Sompo Japan NipponKoa Asset Management.
"The real issue is whether or not Asahi will be able to speed up profit growth at the companies it has bought and how quickly it will see a return on its investment," he said.
Asahi aims to earn 6 percent of its sales from overseas markets this year, which is below a target of 30 percent set by rival Kirin Holdings (2503.T). Asahi's forecast doesn't include the recent slew of overseas deals.
Independent Liquor is New Zealand's top-ranked ready-to-drink cocktail maker and is No.3 in Australia. Last year, it had NZ$414 million ($348 mln) in revenue, but reported a loss of NZ$23 million.
Excluding its purchase of Independent Liquor, Asahi has spent nearly 225 billion yen ($2.9 billion) in the past five years, snapping up targets including taking a stake in China's Tsingtao Brewery and buying the Australia business of Schweppes.
Asahi's shares ended 1.7 percent higher after the announcement of the deal, which had been widely flagged by media reports in recent weeks, outperforming a 1.3 percent fall in the benchmark Nikkei average .N225.
Asahi has also announced plans to buy Permanis, the Malaysian bottler for beverage giant PepsiCo (PEP.N), for about $275 million and the mineral water and juice business of Australia's P&N Beverages for about $200 million.
To help build its position in the Oceania region, the firm, over a quarter owned by foreign investors, unveiled plans last month to buy out New Zealand fruit juices and soft drinks producer Charlie's Group CHA.NZ.
Asia has seen a spate of deals in recent months.
Diageo (DGE.L) has won Chinese approval to take control of Sichuan Swellfun (600779.SS), China's fourth-largest premium white spirits. On Thursday, Australian brewer Foster's FGL.AX rejected a $10 billion offer from rival SABMiller (SAB.L) for the second time as shareholders hold out for a better offer.
At a news briefing, Asahi President Naoki Izumiya told reporters his company would now focus on building its Southeast Asian network, but acknowledged the company needs to look further abroad.
"There is obviously a limit to expansion in Southeast Asia, and Asia as a whole, and if we only do it in Asia, it will not be enough to meet our goals," Izumiya said.
He was referring to Asahi's target to boost annual group revenue to 2-2.5 trillion yen by the end of 2015, up from around 1.5 trillion yen last year, with a goal of an overseas sales ratio of more than 20 percent.
"So our first consideration is seeing what more can be done in China, Asia and Oceania, but after that, we will of course need to make efforts to consider good offers available outside of those areas," Izumiya said.
With only a few targets available in the region, Japanese brewers have been shifting their focus outside of Asia.
This month, Kirin spent $2.6 billion to take a controlling stake in Brazilian beer and soft drinks maker Schincariol, in its first entry into the fast-growing South American economy.
In an interview last month, the overseas head at rival Sapporo Holdings (2501.T) said the beer maker was expanding its scope of its potential targets as it seeks to build up its North American operations.
Independent Liquor earns more than 90 percent of its sales from Australia and New Zealand, but is eyeing an expansion into the United States and China.
The purchase of Independent Liquor will be financed with cash on hand and through loans, President Izumiya said.
Nomura Holdings (8604.T) and Rothschild ROT.UL are advising Asahi, which aims to complete the Independent Liquor deal by September. UBS AG (UBSN.VX) is the financial adviser for PEP and Unitas.
Private equity firms Unitas and PEP acquired Independent Liquor in 2006 for more than $1 billion, and China's Bright Food Group has been among the list of possible buyers, sources had told said.
Unitas is a buyout group formerly known as CCMP. That group spun out of J.P. Morgan when the bank decided to hive off its private equity arm. PEP is a buyout fund focused on investments in Australia and New Zealand.

Missing option
I left out "better" ideas on purpose -- I just wanted to get a sense for those that prefer 'up' to 'down.'
Missing option
I agree that the lack of an "in between" option is more than a minor oversight. I refuse to vote for "in place of the title bar", because I really don't like that, and I probably won't use Safari if they keep that. However, at the top (as in, above the URL field, below the title bar) is a much more semantically logical place to put it, and I would vote for that. |

i want to deploy Autocad 2013 with a Batchfile.
my command looks like this:

I am always getting an error to enter a vaild Serial Number. What i found out in that support forum is to use the zero´s for installation in Trial mode. that is what i need because the User needs to put in the serial Number.
Has anyone an ideo on that on. What is wrong with that command line?

Prior to the wide spread usage of the Internet in the homes of developed nations world-wide, film studios could only promote their upcoming releases with posters, magazine and newspaper articles and advertisements, and with trailers shown on television between advertisements or before a new release movie in the cinema.
Initially on the Internet …official websites tended to be based around simple content: text biographies of stars, production details, poster images, star photographs and occasional sound clips of music or effects.
Current promotional websites for upcoming or new release movies still
have the same content as described by Johnston at the core, but are
much more feature rich. For example, a page of a website can give visitors
immediate access to a variety of information, whether as text based news
updates, computer wallpapers or gallery photos as images, as well as a
variety of video features including teaser trailers and behind the
scenes features with cast and crew.
The Internet, with the help of MP3 technology, has allowed users to
both distribute and gather music digitally from the comfort of their own
home. The main issue for argument is the ability for users of the
Internet to obtain music for free largely through the use of Peer to
Peer (P2P) networks, although other methods of distribution also exist
for individuals looking to obtain music illegally.
Internet users can legally obtain music files by purchasing songs from online music stores. The most well known of these online music stores would be Apple's iTunes Store, but others exist such as Amazon MP3, Napster and Rhapsody. Music files downloaded through legal online music stores will often contain some form of DRM (Digital Rights Management) technology, and will have limited options with regards to file formats for download.
The Internet is no doubt one of the most revolutionary innovations and its impact continues to have a profound impact on nearly every aspect of our lives. In regards to entertainment, the impact is even more pronounced.

EAST MONTPELIER– The North Country girls soccer team made it three straight shut-outs in a row on Friday, defeating U-32 while playing on the Raiders' varsity football field. "The field was in terrible condition, very muddy and really torn up," said Coach Alexander, "But the girls did an excellent job keeping the ball out of the trampled middle and pushing the ball outside. "This is probably our best overall effort this year. We won all the 50/50 balls and we also took some clean fouls. You have to be able to take those kinds of fouls, it is what you need to do."
DERBY– The main pool at IROC is back. It's cold, but it's open. And there could be no better group to test it out than the IROCKET Swim Team which started its season tonight doing laps in the 66 degree water. For some like Eric Gauvin, Eli McFarlane, and Adam Lodewik, 66 degrees was no different than what they took on during the 6 mile open water swim this summer at Kingdom Swim. For others, it was "Nothing but Chilly."
NORTHEAST KINGDOM–UCA ended its annual Spirit Week with a pair of varsity soccer matches. Once again, this years Spirit Week is in memory of former UCA student Eli Goss, who lost his life in a motor vehicle accident one year ago. Varsity Boy's Coach Alyssa DeLaBruere said, "Even though he his not here, we can still feel him around us." While originally scheduled for a double-header at Gardner Park, the girl's game was moved to the North Country Junior High School, with the boy's remaining at Gardner.
WASHINGTON – Vermont's congressional delegation – Sens. Patrick Leahy and Bernie Sanders and Rep. Peter Welch – and Gov. Peter Shumlin announced that over $200,000 in Northern Border Regional Commission (NBRC) funds will go to support two economic development projects in Lyndon and Brighton. The town of Brighton will receive $78,190 to construct a new 2,100 foot walking path along a section of Island Pond Lake, connecting it to the downtown area. This project resulted from a year-long study aimed at enhancing tourism and recreation in the community.
NEWPORT–The Champlain Valley Union Red Hawks came into the Kingdom with an impressive 7-1 record in 2011, and put on a display of technical soccer wonderment as they defeated the North Country Falcons 3-0. "These are kids who play a lot of soccer together," said Assistant Coach Andrew Roy of the Red Hawks, "They are a talented group and they are skilled and are always thinking five passes ahead." From the opening kick-off CVU were masters of their domain, displaying a very quick and high-finesse style, and, as Coach Roy said, seemed to be thinking several moves ahead.
NEWPORT CITY – Despite previous reports, enrollment in the North Country Supervisory District is not as gloomy as previously thought. Last week Superintendent Robert Kern reported a decrease in student enrollment. However, figures printed earlier this week indicate that this is not necessarily the case. "Enrollment changes from day to day," Kern said on Wednesday. Figures in late August and early September indicated numbers were down. "When we went back and looked at the most recent numbers, it looks like we increased almost one percent."
BARRE – Coventry Town Clerk Cynthia Diaz will serve no prison time for failure to file tax returns. Diaz entered a plea of guilty to two misdemeanor charges in Washington District Court on Wednesday. The state dismissed eight felony counts of failure to pay or file tax returns greater than $500 and six counts of filing false or fraudulent returns. Diaz was sentenced to 15 days to six months, all suspended. She was placed on probation, will have to perform 100 hours of community service and file truthfully and correctly tax returns for 2003 through 2009.Â
NEWPORT, VT - Area activists came out in the cold Wednesday in support of the Occupy Wall Street movement that is spreading across the United States. The protest seeks to call attention to the influence of big money on Washington politics and has drawn supporters from all political persuasions. Many have complained that the federal government is spending tax dollars bailing out big businesses and "too big to fail" financial institutions while the working class is left economically stranded and paying the bill.
DERBY, VT - The Coutts Moriarty Summer Camp's new Education Lodge and Dining Hall is under construction at the upper camp level. A foundation has been poured and workers are busy moving dirt. Donations are still being accepted to help with the project. Coutts Camp has merged with non-profit, Siskin Ecological Adventures and provides 500 educational programs to over 10,000 school children each year.
ALBANY, VT - Sometime last weekend, two pickup trucks vandalized the ballpark in Albany Village. Deep tire marks are shown here with tracks leading all around the park. The damage is believed to be in the thousands of dollars to repair. Although there are suspects, the Vermont State Police in Derby are investigating the incident and request your help. Please call 334-8881 with any information that may help catch the perpetrators.
