Inside the Numbers: Jets vs Dolphins
This is the final week where I will use the 2009 stats for the standard statline and I will begin using the 2010 stats for the Bills game next week. Just to clear up any confusion on the QB Stats TPA% is the percentage of touchdowns per pass attempts, IPA % is the percentage of interceptions per pass attempts, SPA % is sacks per pass attempt, and 20+PA is the percentage of big plays over 20 yards per pass play. As always comments are always welcome here or via email. Onto the numbers breakdown
Passing Offense
Comp % | YPC | YPA | TPA % | IPA% | SPA% | 20+PA% | |
Sanchez | 53.57 | 17.07 | 9.14 | 10.71 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 17.86 |
09 Dolphins | 57.46 | 13.36 | 7.68 | 4.70 | 3.07 | 9.00 | 11.66 |
Differential | -6.77% | 27.75% | 29.20% | 127.8% | 100% | 100% | 53.20% |
Analysis: Another very good game for Sanchez. While the completion percentage was down from where you would like it, his other numbers were all off the charts. This was the first game of the year where the Jets seemed to completely take the handcuffs off and allow him to use the entire field of play rather than limiting him to a smaller window for pass attempts. This is also the second week in a row where his TD % is extremely high, which definitely indicates a big shift from last season. In 2009 the Jets did not trust Mark to be throwing into the end zone. In 2010 this is not the case. Looking back at that first week really hurts, because Sanchez is proving he can play well above average. The coach gave that defense far too much credit and his QB not enough credit that week. I dont think that will happen again. The offensive line had their best showing. They did have to grab a few holds to avoid the sacks, but Sanchez was mainly clean for the night.
Rec/G | YPG | YPR | LNG | |
Edwards | 2 | 87 | 43.5 | 67 |
09 Dolphins (WR 1) | 4.38 | 68.31 | 15.61 | 32.13 |
Differential | -54.29% | 27.36% | 178.59% | 108.56% |
Analysis: Edwards sat for a full quarter and still put up huge passing numbers as his two catches were real game changers. His catches were down from the usual, as Miami had all kinds of problems with number 1s last year, but that is attributed to the loss of a quarter of play more than anything else. If Edwards continues to have games like this the Jets passing attack has the potential to be real deadly once WR Santonio Holmes returns from suspension.
Rec/G | YPG | YPR | LNG | |
Cotchery | 2 | 20 | 10.00 | 13 |
09 Dolphins (WR 2) | 3.00 | 54.19 | 18.06 | 31.88 |
Differential | -33.33% | -63.09% | -44.64% | -59.22% |
Analysis: Three games into the season is a good enough sample size to start to become concerned for Cotchery. His stats are just so far below what is expected of a number 2 wide receiver there is something that is wrong. You cant make the excuse that its the other guys doing so well simply because this week the Jets third and fourth targets of Brad Smith and David Clowney put up a slightly above average statline so its not like the offense does not look to other targets. He needs a big game in week 4 against Buffalo or he is going to become forgotten in the offense once Holmes gets up to speed.
Rec/G | YPG | YPR | LNG | |
Keller | 6 | 98 | 16.33 | 31 |
09 Dolphins (TE1) | 3.88 | 56.63 | 14.61 | 24.56 |
Differential | 54.84% | 73.07% | 11.77% | 26.21% |
Analysis: While this was not as impressive as his game against the Patriots, Kellers game looks to have taken off to the next level. These are the type of big games the Jets expected when they drafted him in 2008 and he is finally looking comfortable in this offense. Miami had no answer for Keller early in the game and he helped ease the coverage on Edwards on that long TD.
Rec/G | YPG | YPR | LNG | |
Jets RBs | 3 | 18 | 6.0 | 9 |
09 Dolphins (RBs) | 3.69 | 35.81 | 9.71 | 19.19 |
Differential | -18.64% | -49.74% | -38.22% | -53.09% |
Analysis: This was the first game of the year where the running backs played little to no role in the pass game. The numbers were all down across the board and the yards per reception looks like it is going to settle in the -30% category for the season. The Jets best chance for a big play to their backs may have been on that pass that Sanchez could not get over the lineman and almost had intercepted. Things looked well set up for that play down the field and maybe they will try to work a few more plays like that into the gameplan next week.
Rushing Offense
Greene | 10 | 36 | 3.60 | 9 |
09 Dolphins (RB1) | 15.25 | 67.38 | 4.02 | 15.25 |
Differential | -40.30% | -46.57% | -10.50% | -40.98% |
Analysis: Like with J-Co, I think the warning lights are now on with Greene. His statline played off as average against the Ravens and well below average these last two games. Its starting to look as if Greene is what he is and will put up the same numbers regardless of opponent. His big plays are way down as his long carry this week was nearly 41% below what the Dolphins gave up last season. There was only one play in the game where he displayed the physicality he showed last season and if he does not improve he is slowly going to be phased into a much lesser role with the team.
Tomlinson | 15 | 70 | 4.67 | 21 |
09 Dolphins (RB2) | 6.50 | 27.19 | 4.18 | 11.38 |
Differential | 130.77% | 157.47% | 11.57% | 84.62% |
Analysis:Very soon Tomlinson is going to be considered the number 1 back in the offense He is playing far superior to any other 2s in the league and is playing at a different level than Greene. LT is definitely a better player than he was in San Diego and the Jets are likely wondering what happens if they increase his workload even more. Id anticipate LTs carries to slowly creep up until the Jets begin to see diminishing returns on his contributions.
Passing Defense
Comp % | YPC | YPA | TPA % | IPA% | SPA% | 20+/Att | |
Henne | 59.09 | 13.96 | 8.25 | 4.55 | 2.27 | 4.55 | 6.82 |
09 Henne | 60.75 | 10.50 | 6.38 | 2.66 | 3.10 | 5.76 | 5.10 |
Differential | -2.74% | 32.92% | 29.28% | 70.83% | -26.79% | -21.15% | 33.70% |
Analysis: This was basically right back to the messy performance of the Ravens game a few weeks ago. The numbers were actually not as bad as I expected as I got wrapped into the yardage totals, but the Jets were giving up an additional 30% on yards per play and did a horrible job of defending the goalline against Henne. The interception total was low and sacks were again well below average. The Jets did come close a few times, but as a unit they are underperforming every week in this regard. Right now the Jets best hope is to see what happens when Calvin Pace returns. He and Jason Taylor on the field together may make a difference.
Rec/G | YPG | YPR | LNG | |
Marshall | 10 | 166 | 16.6 | 40 |
09 Marshall | 6.73 | 74.67 | 11.09 | 26.53 |
Differential | 48.51% | 122.32% | 49.70% | 50.77% |
Analysis:When watching the game there were certainly things Antonio Cromartie did well, especially around the end zone, but the stats speak for themselves here. Marshall had his way with the Jets defense on Sunday night. Cromartie had over the top help all night, but it seemed as if most of it was from S Jim Leonhard who is physically too small to give any help. On one of Marshalls big plays he just jumped over him to make a catch and Leonhard had no chance to defend it. Prior to this game Marshall had been invisible. His yardage totals that were 122% over his Denver numbers and 49.7% higher per reception than in Denver were unreal. The Jets definitely need a healthy Darrelle Revis back as soon as they start facing better receivers again.
Rec/G | YPG | YPR | LNG | |
Other WR | 11 | 170 | 15.45 | 28 |
09 Other Target | 6.69 | 79.00 | 11.81 | 24.94 |
Differential | 64.49% | 115.19% | 30.83% | 12.27% |
Analysis: Miami does not have a clear number 2, so I lumped Brian Hartline and Davone Bess together for this analysis. You can make an excuse for a bad showing against Marshall who is one of the top receivers in the game when he wants to be, but there is no excuse for this. You knew it was bad watching the game, but when you dive into the numbers it was far worse. 64% above norm in receptions. 115% above norm in yardage. 31% above norm in per reception yardage. And these numbers downt take into account a pass interference call and an overthrow where the Jets defense was beaten down the field. Most of these numbers fell on rookie CB Kyle Wilson who does not look ready for the speed of the game. The Jets may have to consider using more Dwight Lowery, though he also gave up a big reception in ths game as well.
Rec/G | YPG | YPR | LNG | |
Fasano | 2 | 14 | 7.0 | 11 |
09 Fasano | 2.21 | 24.21 | 10.94 | 12.36 |
Differential | -9.68% | -42.18% | -35.99% | -11.00% |
Analysis:After weeks of getting burned by tight ends the Jets shut down Fasano and held him well under his usual numbers. I had a suspicion going into the game that the Jets dont match up well with the athletes at tight end and they could do well here because Fasano is far from an athlete. The linebackers did a fine job here as did Kyle Wilson late in the game. Fasano did have a score against Eric Smith when Smith played too far off, but that was his only contribution.
Rec/G | YPG | YPR | LNG | |
RBs | 3 | 13.00 | 4.33 | 14 |
09 RBs | 5 | 35.69 | 7.14 | 15.63 |
Differential | -40.00% | -63.57% | -39.29% | -10.43% |
Another outstanding effort to eliminate the running backs from the passing game. This is three weeks in a row the Jets have held teams well below their averages. The Lbs are just sniffing out the plays before the pass is even complete at this point. Miami likes to use their runners in this part of the game and they did not let them do it at all.
Run Defense
Total | 11 | 54 | 4.91 | 17 |
09 Brown | 16.33 | 72.00 | 4.41 | 11.13 |
Differential | -32.65% | -25.00% | 11.36% | 52.74% |
Analysis:The stats are a little misleading because the only reason Brown ended up above his averages was because of a 17 yard run late in the game when the Jets were more or less in a prevent defense and had nobody within 20 yards of the line of scrimmage other than the three down linemen. Most of the day Brown was completely bottled up and the Wildcat went nowhere.
Williams | 7 | 28 | 4.0 | 6 |
09 Williams | 15.06 | 70.06 | 4.65 | 20.75 |
Differential | -53.53% | -60.04% | -14.01% | -71.08% |
Analysis: Williams became a non-factor in this game and he is having all kinds of ball security issues. He was lucky to not have coughed the ball up twice this game. There were no big runs for him and his overall yardage was down 60% from his stats last year. He does not look like the same player anymore.
Final Thoughts
The Jets are looking like they are going to have a very good passing game to rely on this year along with a pretty decent occasional running contribution from LaDainian Tomlinson. I should also add here that Brad Smith made a huge contribution in the run game that I did not compile since most teams dont use three runners in a game like the Jets did this week. It does look as if the Ground and Pound game of last year may be a thing of the past. The offensive line clearly is not the same unit nor is Greene proving to be the physical runner the team wanted to pound the defense with. As the staffs trust continues to grow in Sanchez that should not be a worry.
Defensively this is not the same team as last season. Jim Leonhard as help is just not working out nor is Kyle Wilson looking to be ready to contribute at this level. He is getting torn to shreds. Teams are not going to be able to run on the Jets this year , but they are going to need to find a more natural pass rush to protect the cornerbacks. Hopefully if Darrelle Revis is at full strength in a few weeks he will make up for many of the problems that were shown this week.
Final Grades:
Dustin Keller: A
Mark Sanchez: A
Braylon Edwards: A
Brad Smith: A
LaDainian Tomlinson: B+
Defensive Line: B
Linebackers: B
O-Line: C+
Safeties: C-
Shonn Greene: D
Jerricho Cotchery: F
Corners: F
Comments (7)
LT is the number one back right now. His numbers compare well with the #1 back. LT started the game last night and has had more carries in every game. They may not make an offical announcement but LT is the #1. Greene's numbers align with a #2 back.
Jericho who? Perhaps they brought in Coles believing J-Co was not a #2... Unfortunately, none of the other wide-outs measure up to a #2. Waiting for Santonio. 2011 draft priority if Braylon does not come back. I hope they keep him.
Leonard is having a few coverage and tackling issues and seems to be playing below last years level. But until revis is back, it is too early to judge. 2011 draft priority.
How much worse is Jets the OLine at opening up holes in 2010 compared to 2009?
It can't all be Slausons fault, can it?
I hope Pool can play full time and be the double team on big WRs instead of Leonhard. I assume his ankle is still bothering him.
I would much rather be a good passing team than a good running team.
Brandon- Agreed about the passing attack. Not sure what the deal is with the O-line. Woody looks slower out there as well. I think they miss Faneca's pulling ability. Hopefully its just the fact that it takes some time for an offensive line to gel.
I'm viewing the Cotchery and Greene lack of production differently. For Cotchery, I definitely think that he has been a #3 receiver all along, but was elevated by circumstances to the #1 spot in the past. Last year, with the exception of a number of clutch outs in the playoffs, I don't remember a lot of highlights or big games. With Sanchez now favoring Edwards and Keller, Cotchery's less important in the offense and is liable to be an afterthought in the stat sheet. Still, when Holmes comes back and takes his spot, Cotchery may be able to get open a lot more. Clearly, no DC would, in their right mind, use less than three secondary players to cover Edwards and Holmes, especially with the new version of Sanchez we're seeing. Add to that that LBs and most safeties can't cover Keller and you're left with a LB on Cotchery. He ought to win that matchup time and again assuming he's on the field. Opposing defenses are gonna have to play five and six secondary players to cover these receivers when all four are on the field. Which brings us to Greene.
Greene is a second-year player who played sparingly last year and who started the season against a stout Dline and coughed the ball up twice. I notice his grip, as he's running and he's definitely thinking about ball security now. Still, we're only seeing sniffs of the full flavor we might see if he was more experienced and less worried about screwing up. I think he'll be fine. Those sniffs are pretty tantalizing. He had a run to the right in the fourth quarter Sunday where he basically ran through the entire Dolphins defense and he was still on his feet when he went out of bounds.
Wilson is a raw rookie. He's not going to get it right out of the box. Didn't Revis get burned a number of times in his rookie season? The trouble, as you have said many times, is scheme. He's left out there without any help over the top, way too often. It's on the job training in a slaughterhouse. The bright spots are, that no one seems to be getting separation from him. Then, it's all about technique and experience.
God bless LaDainian Tomlinson. God bless Brad Smith. God bless Mark Sanchez. Three really welcome surprises. go Jets!
I think you are right on Greene. That play you are talking about is the only one since game 1 where I really recall him running the way he did at the end of last season. I think this fumbling thing is in his head right now and its changed the way he is running. Injuries are also going to be a concern with him.
Revis never looked like Wilson has in games 1 and 3. Revis' issue as a rookie was learning to defend the ball in the air rather than just rely on great cover skills. I remember watching him in Dallas against Terrell Owens that year and he probably missed 1 or 2 INTs simply by not knowing how to play the pass itself. Wilson looks more to me like Justin Miller when Miller was starting out. Physically he is there (except for that opening play on Hartline where Henne threw a bad ball), but once the ball is thrown he is lost. Miller never got it, hopefully Wilson will. Right now I think Wilson is getting confused by receivers preparing for a catch. Thats not something you see in college. Subtle hand movements or head movements that in college probably indicate the ball is in the air dont mean that in the pros. Wilson looks ball and then ends up grabbing a jersey or simply missing the end part of the route. That is clearly what happened on the PI call. With the one foot rule in college a receiver is not going to plant his feet on the ground turn and stand there waiting for a ball hoping to hold his balance so not to fall out of bounds. In college the guy turns right when the ball is there or keeps running because dragging one foot is pretty simple. I think Wilson just assumed the ball was about to get to Hartline so he just ran him over. As long as he works hard youll never see that happen again, but Im not sure the Jets can have a third WR in the future tear them up like that.
How do you think they'll handle the secondary? Do you see Lowery/Coleman as the #2/3 corner when three WRs are in the game, and Wilson as the guy to pick up either the fourth WR or, more likely, the TE or RB if they come out. He's kind of a fearless tackler, so he ought to be able to play the run in situations like that. He can certainly cover tight ends pretty well although Fasano isn't Gonzalez. Or else do you think they'll keep putting him in there at the #2 every game until he gets it. Obviously, they're better able to put points up now, so that gives them more leeway with young players, like Slauson and Wilson (as long as Slauson doesn't get Sanchez killed).
BTW, I didn't write about it, but did you notice after the Baltimore game the difference in Sanchez's manner? In his presser there seemed to be a subtle change. I attributed it, at the time, (maybe because of wishful thinking) to a decision he had made to take over the offense. I noticed in the post-game locker room speech after the NE game, Rex called for TRich to give the victory chant and Sanchez stopped him to say to the whole team something like "remember how this feels, we're gonna feel like this after every game." Then he led the cheer. It wasn't anything specific, but I thought it was a sign.

New Dean of Student Life
American Democracy Project
New Minors
Storm Damage
Spring Commencement
In mid-May, John Anderson (Political Science) was named the Director of the American Democracy Project (ADP) at UNK. With his appointment, the ADP gains an official presence on the campus, and momentum for the program will increase. Anderson has been working with Tim Burkink (Marketing), Martha Kruse (English), Dennis Potthoff (Teacher Education), Jeanne Butler (Center for Teaching Excellence and Assessment) and others across campus throughout the process of bringing the program to UNK. A committee comprised of representatives from each college as well as other interested individuals will be working together to promote the ADP on campus.
The purpose of the ADP is to promote both civic and political engagement among students, providing opportunities across campus for individuals to be involved in the democratic community through volunteering, advocacy, voting and service learning.
UNK has a long history of providing students with opportunities for civic and political engagement. Many entities across campus have developed activities that will fit under the umbrella of the ADP. What the presence of the ADP will do, however, is coordinate those efforts, creating a coherent and recognizable culture of student engagement, as well as provide resources to aid in increasing growth. The ADP group hopes to increase the activity of and conversation about civic and political engagement across campus, not just among students but also among faculty and staff. One thing the group hopes to implement soon in order to do this is a reading group among faculty members to support increasing commonality in the vocabulary used to discuss civic and political engagement. "After all," says Anderson, "the lynchpin of a democracy is common conversation."
Now is a crucial and formative period for the ADP at UNK. The ADP group has been brainstorming new activities, which can complement the activities already taking place at UNK. The strategy of the group has been to identify the good things UNK is already doing and seek to continue to improve them, as well as begin planning to introduce new programs on campus.
In an effort to build on what is already being accomplished, the ADP will partner with the History Department, the Political Science Department, and the College of Education to host Constitution Day. The History and Political Science departments have sponsored Constitution Day activities in the past. The College of Education has been involved, in cooperation with the Nebraska Network for Education Renewal, which seeks to prepare teachers to be part of a democracy.
Additionally, the ADP at UNK hopes to be able to host "Times Talks," which would include campus professors giving small talks on a regular basis, as well as drawing on resources to bring in a nationally-known speaker on campus once a year from the New York Times Speaker's Bureau. The ADP group is excited about this possibility to coordinate with the student government's recent initiative to bring several newspapers to campus, including the New York Times.
With the elections approaching in November, the group also anticipates opportunities to involve students in political conversation and activity, including the possibility of an ADP-sponsored voter drive.
Across campus, departments have been increasingly concerned about encouraging, and even requiring, students to be involved in engagement activities. The Political Science department has a tradition of these types of activities with sending students to observe governmental processes at work, as well as sponsoring UNK's Campus Kitchen. Individuals in the Management Department sponsor UNK's chapter of Students in Free Enterprise (SIFE), which has gained a strong positive reputation in our community, as well as at regional competitions. Several departments on campus are working in cooperation with the Office of Service Learning to connect students with opportunities for engagement. The ADP committee hopes to be able to support the work of these groups and the many others who are offering similar types of activities, as well as draw on their expertise and resources to grow the ADP at UNK.
Those involved in the work of the ADP are excited about the potential growth of the program at UNK. They encourage anyone with an interest in engaging students in civic and political activity to become involved, and they plan to develop a website soon in order to provide the community with more information about the program.
In the last academic year, Academic Affairs and Faculty Senate approved four new minors, which will be effective with the Fall 2008 catalog.
In the College of Business and Technology, the Department of Management now offers an Entrepreneurship Minor in order to provide an opportunity for students to explore the area of entrepreneurship. The Department of Marketing and Management Information Systems is now offering an International Business Minor, with course distributions from departments in business, as well as several interdisciplinary elective options.
In the College of Natural and Social Sciences, the Departments of Biology, Sociology, Geography and Earth Science, and Chemistry have combined efforts to offer an Environmental Science Minor. Health Science Programs is offering an interdisciplinary minor in Public Health to complement the coursework of students in health-related programs.
The tornadoes that hit Kearney on May 29 damaged several buildings on campus, most significantly the roofs of the College of Education building, the Fine Arts building, and the Nebraskan Student Union. A skylight blew off the north end of Founders Hall, allowing water to come into the building. Several trees were also uprooted, and facilities personnel have worked in the days following the storm to remove the damaged trees and broken limbs.
In order to ensure the safety and security of the campus, University personnel immediately began to assess the damage on Thursday night after the storm, and the facilities team worked long hours in the following week to clean up the debris and repair the damage, restoring the campus to its normal state. Their quick response enabled the campus to quickly return to a functional level, allowing the summer Student Advising and Enrollment Session scheduled for Friday, May 30 to take place in the Student Union, as well as university business and summer classes to continue as scheduled on Monday, June 2.
We are in the season when severe weather threats are likely. Be sure to review the university policy for handling a tornado watch and warning on campus (scroll down to letter H), and review the location of the tornado shelter in the buildings on campus.
670 graduates participated in UNK's 2008 Spring Commencement. With 529 undergraduates and 141 graduate students, the total number of May graduates represents the largest graduating class since UNK joined the University of Nebraska system in 1991.

Brian Aranha, vice president Automotive Worldwide, talks about why steel will remain the material of choice for car manufacturers.

Available in 12 languages, this video shows all you need to know about the steelmaking process in ArcelorMittal.
ArcelorMittal publishes Biodiversity Conservation Programme annual report 28.10.2013
Did you know that ArcelorMittal steel forms the backbone of the world's most iconic skyline? From Manhattan to the Brooklyn Bridge, our contribution to the Big Apple can be found across New York City.
ArcelorMittal Liberia has published its second annual biodiversity conservation programme report, highlighting the progress being made in the company's dedicated programme. The report includes the news that an important agreement has been reached with local communities that will help to protect the future of Liberia's East Nimba Nature Reserve.
While the first year of the biodiversity conservation programme was spent in discussions with stakeholders, fact finding and evaluation, and drawing up agreements - the latest 45-page report shows the first tangible results of the programme, which is now in its second year.
The programme aims to fill the gaps in current scientific knowledge of the biodiversity in the Nimba mountain range, home to ArcelorMittal Liberia's Tokadeh mine, and to work with local communities to preserve the forest which is one of Africa's top five biodiversity hotspots.
ArcelorMittal's scientific research focuses on flora and fauna that are endemic to the Nimba mountain range, including the critically endangered Nimba Otter Shrew. Former hunters (pictured, right) are now working with ArcelorMittal Liberia's environment team to trap the otter shrews, and a survey in December will fit radio collars to track their movements. The data collected from the radio collars will directly influence the company's operational decisions as to the size of buffer zones needed between the shrews' habitat and the mining area. In addition, the research will provide valuable information about the ecology of this species that will be used to develop a conservation management plan for the Nimba Otter Shrew. An initial report on the Otter Shrew's habitat has already been compiled. The next step is thethe collection of more substantial scientific data on the mammal.
Another key area of the conservation programme focuses on encouraging farmers to change from shifting cultivation – a practice where plots of land are cultivated temporarily, then abandoned and allowed to revert to their natural vegetation – to permanent, stabilised agriculture in one location. In practice, this means cultivating tree crops that require fewer nutrients; growing this kind of crop also requires a move from subsistence to low-level commercial agriculture, therefore research is being carried out to analyse the markets for crops such as sugar cane and oil palm.
The programme is shaped by a philosophy that all the work undertaken as part of the programme should be informed by the best science. "Our scientific work is very carefully focussed. The main aim for the programme is to understand and influence land use practices in order to find ways to conserve the forest. To do this, we have to have established mechanisms and agree on which areas of the forest are to be protected" said John Howell, environmental adviser to ArcelorMittal Liberia.
Local farmers are currently testing various models of conservation agriculture which rely on very low labour and technical input (pictured, below) to find out which methods are best suited to the local environment.
"We have seen the first harvests starting to come in, with some very positive comments from farmers who are seeing larger yields from crops that require less labour to cultivate. This is a long term programme and it is still early days – the next step is to find out whether this can work on a large scale" said Howell.
As part of the conservation programme, an agreement has been made to protect the East Nimba forest area, which is one of only three protected habitats in Liberia. While the Nimba reserve is home to endangered flora and fauna, it is also used by local communities to support their livelihoods, through hunting, agriculture and harvesting of non-timber forest products such as rattan, mushrooms, palm products and snails. Thanks to workshops funded by ArcelorMittal but facilitated by international non-government organisations (NGOs) Conservation International and Fauna & Flora International, all the stakeholders have reached an agreement that means the East Nimba Nature Reserve will be used solely for conservation for the next five years. This historic agreement has laid down a challenge to conservationists to prove to the communities that live near the reserve that conservation can pay.
ArcelorMittal Liberia has also been working with community forest groups in forests outside the reserve borders, to educate communities about the forests' biodiversity and to show why they are worth conserving. Work is underway to zone the forests, with some areas used for conservation, agriculture and mining. "It is exciting to see that the community forest groups agree that conservation is one of the top priorities for these forests. These groups know that the number of animals in the forest is declining. What they do not know is how to sustain them – and we are working to help them change this" said Howell.
ArcelorMittal Liberia launched its biodiversity conservation programme in August 2011, with US$1m invested to date as part of the company's phase one iron ore mining operations. The initiative, which is overseen by the ceo of ArcelorMittal Liberia, Antonia Maria, and the managing director of the Forestry Development Authority, Harrison Karnwea, is intended to compensate for the impact of the mining of direct shipping ore during phase one of ArcelorMittal Liberia's operations, from 2011 to 2015. In exploiting an area's natural resources and unlocking wealth – in this case, through mining iron ore – ArcelorMittal Liberia's conservation strategy is to set up systems to manage renewable resources.
According to international best practice, where operations cause irreversible damage to a landscape, compensation must be offered to those affected. ArcelorMittal Liberia's biodiversity conservation programme is one of the first examples in West Africa of an active compensatory environmental programme that is working with communities, to support their livelihoods while taking a long-term view on how to preserve the forest for future generations.

The first, and some would argue the greatest, contribution to New York by ArcelorMittal was the Empire State Building. Bethlehem Steel – which went on to become International Steel Group, and finally ArcelorMittal - supplied major structural steels for the iconic structure.
Construction began in 1929 and was completed in 1931, with the building becoming the world's tallest skyscraper for the following 40 years. Bethlehem Steel's wide-flange beams, developed a century ago, are acknowledged as having made the skyscraper era possible.
By the end of the 1920s, the stage had been set by for our steel to dominate the most famous skyline in the world; an estimated 80% of the New York skyline contained steel made by Bethlehem Steel. Those making the journey from Manhattan to Brooklyn were also touched by our steel – the famous Brooklyn Bridge contains our wire rope.
The Big Apple and ArcelorMittal beams – an enduring relationship
Just a year after construction began on the Empire State, building started on another New York City landmark, the Rockefeller Center. One of our beams produced one of the world's most famous photographs, 'Lunch atop a Skyscraper'. This black and white image of 11 construction workers sitting on a wide-flange beam, the Grey Beam, at the 69th floor level without any harnesses became world famous.
Our beams – H beams – also featured in one of the biggest local rivalries of the skyscraper era. Banker George Ohrstrom and Walter Chrysler, founder of the automotive giant Chrysler Corporation, were in a race to back different projects to build the world's tallest building in the 1930s. Ohrstrom's Chase Manhattan Bank, today known as the Trump Building, contains 53,000 tonnes of our steel, as does the famous art-deco Chrysler Building.
Today, our steel stands tall and proud in the One World Trade Centre which had its final piece – the spire – lifted to its top in May 2013. The skyscraper contains more than 14,000 tonnes of our world-famous jumbo beams from ArcelorMittal Differdange in Luxembourg in its structural frame and uses 10,000 tonnes of plate supplied by our Coatesville site in the state of Pennsylvania in the US.
The HISTAR ® trail
Only a couple of blocks away from the One World Trade Centre is one of the tallest buildings in New York and one of the many stops on what we have dubbed the NYC HISTAR® trail - Times Square 4 or the Condé Nast building.
In fact, there are currently 15 structures in New York which have been built using our special patented HISTAR®, or (Hi)gh (St)rength steel (Ar)celorMittal which combines high yield strength with excellent toughness at low temperatures and outstanding weldability - material properties that were considered incompatible before its development in 1991.
Optimal use of this range of steels allows for up to 60% overall weight reduction to be achieved, which in turn directly reduces the CO2 footprint up to 40% and the primary energy consumption of any building that uses them. The best example of this aspect of HISTAR® can be found in the Hearst Tower. Located in the heart of Manhattan, this striking building is a unique combination of a 1920s art deco masterpiece and a new-millennium, 46-storey skyscraper that also happens to be among the top 10% of energy-efficient buildings in the US.
In 2006, the Hearst Tower received a LEED gold certification, making it the first skyscraper in New York to achieve the coveted green building seal.
With ArcelorMittal's steel having been in the world's tallest buildings since the start of the skyscraper era, it is safe to assume that our company's steel will continue to transform the dazzling skyline of this much-loved city.

Given the successful IPO on Oct. 12 of cloud-based HR software provider Workday (WDAY), soaring 74% in its debut, and the continued growth of ADP, the giant worldwide player in business outsourcing software (HR, payroll processing, and benefit administration), one has to wonder what the future holds for Paychex (PAYX). Paychex has held the No. 2 position in United States human resource and benefit administration client count for over 30 years.
A review of fiscal year-end (May 31, 2012) results taken from the company's annual report indicates record performance for Paychex and its 12,400 employees. Paychex delivered a 7% increase in revenue year over year to $2.229 billion. Earnings per share increased 6% to $1.51 from $1.42 in 2011. Most importantly for future growth, client employees served with Paycheck's HR solutions grew 8% to 615,000.
Paychex has carved out a niche with small and medium-sized businesses served from over 100 offices across the United States and Germany. Large corporate clients are more likely to be with competitor ADP. This is not a negative for Paychex; instead, Paychex cements its relationship with small businesses using a direct sales force presenting mobile solutions and the latest technology to make payroll, insurance and benefit administration simple. In September 2012, Paychex launched a special 401(k) sales force solely dedicated to building relationships with financial advisors and plan sponsors.
Paychex Has a Substantial "Moat"
The "moat" for this business is the difficulty and headache involved in a client changing providers. Why is it difficult for an employer, especially a "mom and pop" operation, to change paycheck and benefit providers? All year-to-date cumulative information for income, taxes, health insurance deductibles, and 401(k) contributions for each employee are in the hands of the benefit administrator, such as Paychex. In addition, funds are held by the administrator for payment of federal tax withholdings and Social Security contributions. This is private and sensitive information and won't be moved without a compelling reason.
Paychex is priced at $32.63 as of the close on Oct. 12, 2012. The stock is up 16.2% over the past 52 weeks, below the 18.9% growth of the S&P 500. It is selling below its 50-day moving average of $33.58.
Paychex pays an attractive dividend yielding 3.9% annually. The dividend growth rate is 7.16% on a five-year average. A cautionary note is that the dividend payout ratio is at 84%, higher than the industry average.
Automatic Data Processing (ADP): The company is the oldest and largest provider in the space of business HR outsourcing including payroll and benefit management solutions, tax, and compliance. The company has a suite of human capital management systems and a worldwide network of service centers. Revenue exceeded $9.9 billion in 2011 with a client count in excess of 600,000.
Insperity (NSP): The company provides HR support through its Workforce Optimization solution, which encompasses a range of functions including payroll and employee benefits, workers compensation, government compliance, expense management, training, and employee performance goals. Its client count includes over 100,000 small and medium-sized businesses with over 2 million employees served from 56 offices. Revenues in 2011 exceeded $2 billion.
Workday: The company provides cloud-based applications for businesses in the United States and internationally. It offers applications for customers to manage business functions that help them optimize their financial and human capital resources. The company was founded in 2005 and went public on Oct. 12, 2012.

Source: Yahoo Finance.
The business of business outsourcing appears healthy and each of the above companies serves a specialty niche. Investing over the long term in any of these examples is a play on continued business growth. The fact that these companies survived and prospered during the downturn means there may be real upside as the economy improves. Imagine if, over time, 5-10 million new jobs are created how these payroll processing and employee benefit companies will profit.
As a retiree with an interest in dividend income, I like each of the three listed above as they all pay dividends -- but particularly PAYX, with its 3.9% yield. I am impressed with the return on equity and operating margin performance of the two largest players, PAYX and ADP. The fact that NSP is a small-cap and has a very attractive PEG ratio 0.70 will cause me to put it on my watch list. You may want to do the same.

Aftermarket trailer brake controller for in dash? Looking for
I seen that the new 14s have an in dash trailer brake slider built rider into the dash.
Anyone know of anything aftermarket that might fit an 08 that is similar?
Would love to have something easier to reach then mounting a controller down by the e brake where my nose almost hits the steering wheel while manually activating it.
Any help appreciated. If someone can point me in the right direction.
- - - Updated - - -
I found a handheld one on this website. Sounds a little weird but that might be almost as good.

10-08-2013, 01:11 PM #2My 08 Silverado 3500HD with trailer package has the in dash brake controller. Possible that your truck already has the wiring harness for the factory brake controller. Might be mistaken but I think the commercials for the 2007's advertised the in dash controller. Since they have been out for at least 5 or 6 years I would first check the local salvage yards for a factory unit. Good luck!
10-08-2013, 07:19 PM #3I looked into adding the factory controls to my truck. I was told it can not be added.
I've never taken someone's answer and walked away, so I found a wiring diagram for the brake controller.
It would be a huge job to add the factory controller to a truck that does not have the modules. I don't recommend trying.Ray

Thanks for the info guys. From what I read it was available then but not in the 1500 just in the 25 and 3500.
I don't think it's something I'm going to bother challenging.

I added an electronic brake on my 07 Yukon and it was a snap, however the tow pkg was factory installed. I plan on installing in my 09 Silverado because it also has the tow pkg.

The latest Kids Count in Michigan Data Book underscores the need to act to help children in Michigan with eight of 15 indicators of child well-being showing worsening trends.
For the first time since 1992, when the first state data book was released, the report ranks counties on the overall status of child well-being using 13 out of 15 indicators. This provides a bigger picture of local child well-being and how the county compares with others. Ottawa, Livingston and Clinton counties were ranked the best for overall child well-being while Clare, Roscommon and Lake counties were the last among the 82 counties ranked. Keweenaw County was not included in the rankings because it lacked data for most indicators.
More than a half-million children lived in poverty in 2011 (about $18,000 a year or less for a family of three) and more than 33,000 children were confirmed victims of maltreatment. Child poverty went up 28 percent over the trend period; young children qualifying for food assistance jumped by 55 percent and confirmed victims of abuse and neglect, linked to poverty, increased by 28 percent. The period covered in the book is generally 2005 to 2011.
The biggest improvements were the decline of kids in foster care, decreasing from 17,000 in 2005 to 11,000 in 2011, and a drop in fourth-graders not proficient in reading from 40 percent to 32 percent of test-takers in the Michigan Educational Assessment Program. Mortality rates for infants fell by 8 percent between 2005 and 2010 while the death rate for children/youth ages 1-19 declined 11 percent.
The Data Book clearly points to the public policies that continue to be inadequate to support ALL Michigan children and reduce disparities in child outcomes. Specifically, Michigan needs to:
Be sure to check-out the 2012 Kids Count Data Book and see how children in your county fare. Not sure what to do with the data? See our Advocacy handout on easy steps you can take to begin to improve public policies on behalf of Michigan children and families. Also, see our corresponding Speaking for Kids staff blog Making Sure That Kids Count More in 2013.
The 2011 Michigan Kids Count Data Book shows that growing poverty is threatening children's health and well-being, and lowering their chances of success and the state's chances for a bright future. The latest Data Book shows nearly a quarter of all Michigan kids were living in poverty in 2009, up from 14 percent in 2000. Even more sobering is the number of Michigan kids living in extreme poverty – less than $11,000 a year for a family of four. This number more than doubled from five percent to eleven percent – that's more than one in every 10 kids living at half the poverty level.
School cafeteria staff see this need daily with nearly half of public school children statewide now qualifying for free and reduced price lunches. In addition to hunger, children and families in poverty lack access to the supports they need to be emotionally and physically healthy such as access to a consistent source of medical care. Ensuring access to programs that promote health can reduce childhood stress, depression, anxiety and obesity. Healthy children are better prepared when they enter school, are better able to learn in school, are more likely to graduate high school and be college or career ready.
The information in the Data Book isn't all bad. Michigan has made some progress with drops in teen birth rates, teen deaths and high school dropout rates. Additionally, more students are now considered proficient in math. Michigan also lowered its child death and infant mortality rates, although African American infants are three times less likely to celebrate a first birthday than Caucasian babies.
The Data Book clearly outlines troubling statistics for Michigan's low-income children and children of color. To reduce disparities in outcomes for children of color and low-income children, it is critical that the foundation for lifelong success begin at birth, supports children from cradle to career, and provides families and communities the supports they need to support all children.
See the Kids Count Data Book, which includes state and county level data, on the Michigan League for Human Services website.
The Data Book also includes recommendations for policymakers, community leaders and others to improve these key indicators of well-being. Sadly, our state leaders' recent actions make conditions worse instead of better for our children, including implementing a 48-month lifetime cap on cash assistance and weakening the Earned income Tax Credit that helps many low-income families stay afloat. Michigan's kids desperately need the attention and support of our policy makers now with investments beginning at conception and extending through young adulthood. More specific policy actions are outlined in our 2011 Legislative and Administrative Policy Agenda "Creating Michigan's Future: Ensuring Our Children are Ready to Learn and Lead." The Michigan League for Human Services directs the Kids Count in Michigan project, which is supported through a partnership with Michigan's Children. The Michigan press release, trends in the data and talking points are all available on their web site here.

Michigan Mothers and Their Babies: Overview and Trends 2000-2009
The Right Start in Michigan is the Kids Count annual review of mothers' and babies' well-being. Over the decade between 2000 and 2009, Michigan improved on three of the five indicators where a trend could be calculated.
In 2009 more Michigan babies were born to mothers in economically insecure circumstances than in 2000. Roughly half of Michigan infants were born to low-income mothers eligible for Medicaid, and births to unmarried mothers represented roughly 40 percent of all births in 2009. Women unmarried at the birth of their child are likely to remain single parents with the heightened risk of poverty.
The full Right Start in Michigan and its Counties - 2011 report is available on the Michigan League for Human Services website.
Kids Count in Michigan
Kids Count in Michigan is annual publication examining the status of children and families in all of Michigan's 83 counties and the city of Detroit.
Kids Count in Michigan is a partnership between the Michigan League for Public Policy and Michigan's Children - two organizations committed to providing information about the status of children and families in Michigan communities and the role of public policy in impacting that status. This knowledge can then be used to improve policies and practices to make Michigan children healthier, safer and more successful in school and in life.

I bought this polisher along with the one hand 6" and the 10" Polisher's. This is the best out the three. I like the one hand 6" and this one best. I won't use the 10" polisher much, these 2 are just fine. The smaller polisher is better for tighter, smaller places on the car/truck. I think for the money this variable speed polisher is a very good bargain. I used the 1 hand 6" polisher to put on compound and wax, and used this 6" one to take them off and buff to high gloss. I used only up to the 4th speed setting with very good results. Next time I will try the 6th speed (higher O.P.M.)setting. It was the 1st time using either polisher so I took my time and got used to the feel and capability. Next time I will do better with confidence and now know what they're both capable of. The gloss I got was fabulous, I put on a coat of "Mother's" synthetic sealer 1st, followed by 2 thin coats of McGuire's Carnaby wax. I let the sealer cure for 2 days before I added the 2 coats of wax. Harbor Freight sells other 7" polisher's but this one is the best one they sell. It's the best quality, does the best job, and seems to be a top quality tool. It didn't run overly hot, nor did it strain at any point. I let the weight of the tool do the work, I used very little pressure myself. This tool has a good weight, feels good to hold, and doesn't vibrate more than normal. The only worry is will it hold up over time. I don't use them everyday, only about every 3 months when I polish my truck so they should last. I take care of my tools,I don't mis-treat them. I bought several good quality cotton and microfiber bonnets with elastic bands. I also bought the 3 foam hook & loop pads that Harbor Freight sells especially for this variable polisher. I like this 6" variable speed polisher, and recommend it over the other's sold there, with good reason.

The first one arrived DOA. I sent it back for replacement and heard nothing from HF for over a month. I called twice checking on what happened to my replacement and they said they would send it out that day. A few days later I received an envelope with another return authorization. I called again and finally they shipped my replacement. I tried it out to make sure it worked and it vibrates excessively. It is hard to hold against the car body and the polishing it uneven. I think the backing pad is bent causing it to wobble. I am going to try to find a backing pad off a porter cable and see if it will fit. So far it does not seem like much of a bargain.

Great wood sander too!!!
By orangepew
from Farmington, Illinois
About Me Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
Comments about Chicago Electric Platinum 6 in. Variable Speed Dual Action Polisher:
I chose this for wood finishing because it is random orbit and high amp. It doesn't have a dust port but I do all my sanding outside. This sander has the specs of high end wood finishing sanders way out of my price range. It is a BEAST, easy to handle, and will serve you well if you can look beyond the lack of a dust port.

Excellent Polisher!!!!
By KOWCC

Don't waste your money on machines that cost 4 times as much. This is all you need!Just purchase higher quality pads and not the ones sold at HF. Those literally disintegrated by the time i was done.

For the price, it can't be beat !

About Me Professional
This DA is well built, or I was lucky and got a good one. I own a PC7424XP and a Flex 3401. Although this unit is not as powerful as the Flex, it is equal if not a little bit better than the PC. I decided to purchase this polisher to have a third setup so I would not have to keep swapping pads and backing plates. I replaced the 6in. plate that was included with a lake county 5in. plate. I must say I am very impressed with the power of this DA, and for the price I would definitely take this over the PC. After 2 months of daily use it's still going strong. It has definitely paid for itself many times over !

Quality polisher at a good price
By frugal mark
from fort lauderdale, FL
I used it on my 9 year old SUV which I have to say I've neglected the exterior the past few years. Using the polisher with meguiar's ultimate compound and then waxing it, unbelievable results. The quality of the machine is apparent right away. Saved my shoulders from hours of work, by hand and cut the time down dramatically.Purchase when on sale and with 20%, as always purchase extended warranty. You cant go wrong with this polisher. Everyone comments vehicle looks new and a great shine.

Simply the best da polisher
By mynsxt6
from raleigh, nc
I used this da polisher last weekend to detail my sister-in-laws 2009 Dodge Journey. It had not been washed since late in 2010. I first washed the vehicle and clayed it and then proceeded to compound and wax using meguiars da correction system which includes d300 correction compound and d301 finishing wax. The da polisher made the whole job very easy. I used it to apply the compound doing a section at a time. I then used it to apply and spread the d301 finishing wax. I then put on a hook and loop wool pad and covered it with a microfiber polising bonnet which I used to remove the wax on a speed setting of 5. This da polished is just awesome what amazing results I got from this hightly neglected vehicle was nothing short of phenominal.

My first and last polisher
By Lovable Larry
from Raleigh, NC
I used this polisher last weekend to compound and wax my sister-in-law's Dodge Journey. It has not been washed since the first year she owned it. I used Meguiars MF correction compound (D300) and finsihing wax (D301) This car was in very bad shape paint-wise.I washed the car using Meguiars Ultimate wash and wax, while the soap was on the vehicle, I clayed it using Meguiars clean surface clay. I then compounded using the D300 and followed with the D301. Man did that charcoal gray metal flakes pop like crazy. I also used the polisher to remove the wax using a wool hook and loop pad covered with a very soft MF bonnet. I can't wait to use it on my 2009 acura RL which is alberta pearl white

Used this dual action buffer right out of the box. User friendly. Fast action. Exceeded my expectations all around. Small enough to get into every spot. Large enough to repeat process multiple coats of polish in no time.

By jbeazy
from KY
Used this to buff out the fresh coat of clear I put on my tailgate after I painted it. Turned out great. I did not use the HF pads as they were not in stock, so I cannot speak how they perform. I will say the polisher is great, one of the best purchases I have made from HF!

yes it is safe to use jailbreakme with your iPhone. The only problem/risk is that if something goes wrong.. you can NEVER restore to 4.0 again, because you are too late in backing up SHSH for 4.0 (or 4.0.1 or 4.0.2)
Go and backup your 4.1 SHSH now.. Apple will only be signing that until November.
So you have one-shot at a jailbreak (right now - there will be a jailbreak for 4.1 eventually). Be cautious as to what you install (and later try to uninstall) from Cydia. Most things are safe to install, just use caution and common sense.
Carrier settings are 99% of the time okay, they generally help (update MMS settings or voicemail server address etc).
In combination with jailbreak, any negative settings bundled in a carrier settings update can be overidden (for example if a carier decided to introduce tethering as an item that must be purchased separately, they could use carrier settings to enforce this)

Popularity grew gradually. Then, fortune struck. Or so it's said. Even the Hasbro site describes this next part as "legend."
According to the story, the president of Macy's discovered the game on vacation, and ordered some for his store. Within a year, the game was wildly popular and Scrabble had to be rationed in stores.
In 1952, demand was so great, the originators of Scrabble could no longer keep up. They had to license the distribution and marketing to Selchow and Righter Company, a well-known game manufacturer, which was similar but not exactly like Sun Records selling Elvis's contract to RCA.
At that point, Scrabble was basically the game people love today. Now it's a classic.
Kanawha Valley Scrabble Club co-director Lisa Green got an early start in her Scrabble career. Her father started encouraging her to play when she was 6.
"He was really into it, and he started me with a handicap. It started at 200 points and then it got smaller as I got older, until I was beating him regularly. Then it went away," Lisa said. "We still play. He still beats me sometimes."
A friend agreed to play while she was in college but soon decided he never wanted to play against her again when she beat him by nearly 150 points. After searching for someone willing to play Scrabble with her, Lisa joined the Kanawha Valley Club in 2007. It encourages her to advance and get better at the game.
The Scrabble tournament at the Ramada Inn from Sept. 28-30 was the seventh NASPA-sanctioned tournament hosted by the Kanawha Valley club. Twenty-eight players from states including Kentucky, North Carolina, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Michigan, New Jersey and Ohio came in for the event.
Players from other clubs know to look for tournaments on the NASPA website as well as another site dedicated to organized Scrabble play called cross-tables.com. Kanawha Valley did not need to advertise. They held the tournament, and people came.
While some tournaments can get heated at times, the Kanawha Valley club maintains a fun and positive atmosphere, even if the competition is stiff.
"I remember a few years ago Brad wore a Superman cape," said tournament winner Ryan Fischer of the Charlotte, N.C. Scrabble club. "This year, he gave out leis. The after-hours activities are always fun, too."
Ryan received a $350 payout for his first-place ranking. His highest score was 503 points, and words like "menthols" and "soupier" helped him secure his top spot.
Winning tournaments is important for serious Scrabble players because of the cash prizes for first through fourth places.
NASPA competitors are nationally ranked so they also seek victories to advance their rankings.
"If you play someone who is rated higher than you and you beat them, you gain rating points," Brad said. "Also if you have a higher rating than someone and they beat you, then you lose rating points. The rating system has a complicated mathematical equation to figure out rankings, but it favors the underdog."
Lisa believes the large cash prizes draw players to the Charleston tournament.
"We use entry fees to give out prize money, and our 90 percent payout is higher than some of the other tournaments' prizes."
Lisa placed fourth in her division and claimed a modest winning.
"I won 80 bucks! Which makes me happy because I'm not used to winning money," she said.
While the club holds organized study sessions for members to build their vocabulary and practice techniques, Lisa says the best way to get better is to play.
Playing against real people rather than a computer is key, and that makes meetings that much more important. Meetings allow members to practice and build their skill while having fun with friends.
"The cool thing about Scrabble is you're playing the same game over and over, but really it's a different game every time," she said. "The same letters are coming out of the bag, but you'll never have the same game more than once."
If you are interested in joining the Kanawha Valley Scrabble Club, contact Brad Mills at wvscrab...@gmail.com or call 304-345-0484 during evening hours.

A Government Shutdown Could Shut Down Wall Street
A lengthy government shutdown could put a halt to some of the basic functions of Wall Street.
New issues of bonds and stocks could be held up during a government shutdown, since they often require registration with regulators. Initial public offerings may be impossible. Mergers could be brought to a standstill, since they often require the approval of a number of regulatory bodies.
The Securities and Exchange Commission says that while certain enforcement and market surveillance activities will continue, it will have to stop performing many of its functions in the event of a shutdown.
The frozen functions could include the registration of securities, accepting and publishing corporate filings, and processing filings related to mergers and acquisitions. The agency's plan for exactly which functions will continue hasn't yet been finalized.
The Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Justice are both charged with reviewing mergers and acquisitions to prevent deals that would be anti-competitive. Those reviews may be stalled in the event of a government shutdown.
It's not clear whether the FTC or the Department of Justice would be able to accept filings for new deals. While both agencies will be able to perform some of their functions, the fate of the merger reviews is not yet known.
One part of the regulatory apparatus that won't shut down is the Federal Reserve. It doesn't rely on Congressional funds and plans to remain open for business as usual. This means that bank regulatory work continues.
The last government shut down lasted three weeks. If Wall Street were unable to perform many of its functions for weeks, it could impact revenues this quarter.
When the government shut down in 1995, the impact was not as severe because the SEC was able to continue to function because it located funds to pay employees. An SEC spokesman told the Wall Street Journal that option is not available this time.

You just opened up two new threads for nothing, this is against the forum rules.
Everything you need is available in the forum, just LOOK for it and READ. I suppose auto mechanics know how to read, right? Seriously: I don't even understand why you mentioned your profession since I suppose that 90% of the people over here aren't IT pros. Don't be lazy, dude...if you can use a computer, you can use the SEARCH function too, you can READ and I suppose you know what Google is too. Good luck.

Well, I am on vacation in Paris and there is the Star Wars L'expo going on which I found out about from a poster while walking the streets sightseeing. Well, I decided to go and check it out and look what I found:
Beautiful!!! they have my old helmet!:lol
oh no...not again a new helmet project! :lol
BTW: interesting that the rope belt seems to be cross-bindet together with that white piece of rope... well, there goes the screen-accuracy again ;)
Wonder if this would get you into the 501st?
The dent was more than likely suffered post-mortem. Your head would be dented too if Mace Windu cut it off and it bounced around a little.
Wow! That is too cool!
@Sean Solo: Good guess, but as far as I know it's the dent from the Kamino scene, where Jango hit his head while going aboard Slave I. In the Geonosis Battle Scenes he already has this dent.
Yeah the dent happened sometime on Kamino. There are disagreements as to what exactly caused it, but it was present during the battle on geonosis.
Niiice. Hmmm. Should I be jealous that you bumped into this awesome costume or that you were vacationing in Paris? Either way you win. :)
Interesting that they have two suits on display at the same time. I assume the one on display at FIDM is the primary hero suit. This one in paris must either be one of the other two hero suits or one of the stunt suits.
It was more of a joke than a serious observation. ;) :jangoQuote:

SEEKER said:
Woah thats too freaking cool! Nice find Mirax!
That looks awesome. I had actually thought about adding the dent to my helmet.
Well, I am hoping to get to go to LA as well- will be interesting to have pictures of both suits to compare. They also had a Slave Leia there which is also on display in LA so I will also get to see both of those suits. Interesting that no one has commented on the ARENA JET PACK!!! And the sweet thing is that I was able to get awesome back shots of the suit!!! I will eventually make the pictures available in a high res version. Will be a bit before I get around to it but I certainly do plan to make them available :)
The "Sniffer" admires your fabulous find. Paris is a very Romantic place too. It is the perfume capital of the world!
I just thought this was cool, you managed to get almost the exact same angle on this shot, making a neat comparison:
Cool pictures... I still want to know if the intent of the dent was to explain away Boba's dent (just thinking people wouldn't be as anal as us in questioning the placement of it) or if its still supposed to be viewed as a different bucket entireley.
My vote has always been that its supposed to be the same bucket and the prop builders simply aren't as interested in accuracy as some of us fans.
Mirax Thanks for posting the pics..I'm looking forward to seeing more. Nice shots of the back of the costume, I've not seen pictures as good at that angle ever, keep em' coming. Looks like I need to make some changes to my Girth belt again.

That's a beatuful helmet:eek
@ Mirax:
Where is it exactly in Paris and do you know till when it will be there?
As I'll be there after christmas over new years eve to visit my aunts, it would be an excellent opportunity to visit the exhibtion too.
:jango OUCH! :facepalm ..Did this happened in Paris?.
It looks pretty cool though//hehe. :skull
The dent? It happened in AOTC.
Thanx a lot Mirax!
As there is no expiring date given and it started just the 18th october I guess I will be lucky to visit it over christmas. :) :) :) :) :) :)
It actually ends in August 2006
Now that has to be a treat!!! A trip to Paris plus Star Wars...
i'll be in paris this spring...thanks for posting about the exhibit! it will be fantastic to see, and will give an extra super-duper aspect to my master's thesis!
I just happened to be watching AOTC yesterday doing some research for a costume and noticed the dent when Jango is fighting Obi Wan on the landing platform in the rain.
You can esp. see it when he lets go of Obi wan from the wrist repeller or what ever that is, right after he loses his jet pack. Just an observation, I was kinda of surprised to see it myself.
Very cool to have all these out and about on display.
What a great trip, Paris and Star Wars!!

So...the real bucket is metal? Thats Awsome!
Eh? What makes you think it's metal?
Just an assumption.:D It is metal, Is'nt it? I don't know much about Jango.
I saw the AoSW exhibit in Japan a while back, but was too busy drooling over the Boba Fett armor to notice any dents on Jango's helmet.
I like that seal around the bottom part of the helmet. Hadn't seen that before. Anybody here have anything like that on your helmets?
I never noticed how not-shiney the dented helmet is. It is really dirty and dull.
