Practical PHP Testing Patterns: Scripted Test
Scripted Test is the main classes of tests that are written nowadays: a reproduction of hypothetical client code, that asserts the called code works correctly.
Scripted Tests enable us to use Test-Driven Development, and transform tests in an instrument of design instead of a mere checklist.
The Scripted Test approach gives tests the same dignity of the production code: we write and refactor them as they were ordinary classes. In PHPUnit, which is the standard testing automation framework for PHP applications, they are always represented as classes, but also as files in other testing frameworks. Unless differently specified, we will always refer to PHPUnit..
By the way, Recorded Tests introduced in the previous article cannot bypass under the user interface hood. Test for groups of objects (cmmonly named functional tests) or single classes (unit tests) have to be written by hand in some way. This is not necessarily an issue, since we probably want to write them in advance to ensure the production code they exercise will be testable and well decoupled from the rest of the application. Focusing on the client's point of view is the best way to start designing an Api, being it a web service or the set of public methods of a single object.
Many years ago Scripted Tests were, as the name suggest, standalone scripts (especially in PHP, which is in turn tested with phpt, a basic testing framework), that exercised the code under test and raised visible warnings in case of failures. Now we can write them with a testing automation framework which provides us automatic isolation and results processing, along with small libraries for asserting and mocking.
This is an example of plain old test script.
<?php require_once 'Sum.php'; $sum = new Sum(23, 42); $result = $sum->getValue(); if ($result !== 65) { throw new Exception('Sum produces an incorrect result.'); } echo "Sum is ok.\n";
Note how likely repeating the various if-exception combination and messages between the various tests would be. Also aggregating the output of several of this script is not going to be easy.
This is how phpt, the tool used for testing PHP itself, would approach the problem:
--TEST-- Sum class test --FILE-- <?php require_once 'Sum.php'; $sum = new Sum(23, 42); $result = $sum->getValue(); var_dump($result); ?> --EXPECT-- int(65)
phpt compares the ouput of the --FILE-- section execution with the --EXPECT-- section. PHP native functions are tested with lots of scripts like this, which are the first step towards the definition of independent Test Cases.
Here's how PHPUnit defines a Scripted Test instead:
<?php require_once 'Sum.php'; class SumTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase { public function testProducesCorrectResult() { $sum = new Sum(23, 42); $result = $sum->getValue(); $this->assertSame(65, $result); } }
The PHPUnit's executable (/usr/bin/phpunit when installed via PEAR) will happily take the file, instance the test case one time for each test method to run, and tell you how many assertion failed. PHPUnit cannot be used to test the php interpreter or its own core, however, because a regression would affect also the testing harness.
The solutions available for testing have evolved over the years, and now you don't have to resort to manually run scripts anymore. PHPUnit is the PHP version of the xUnit series of frameworks, and provide you with all you need to set up a sandbox for your tests and running them, gathering statistics and displaying failures in the format you choose.
Before diving into how to write test code, we'll see a couple more general patterns, such as the Data-Driven test.

Unit Tests are horrible. Not per se, mind you. But the PHPUnit API as it was copycated from Java makes little sense in PHP. While a bunch of assert functions and syntactic sugar are a necessity in Java, it's convoluting test systems in PHP where the extraneous fluff shouldn't be required.
It's imperative to recognize the semantic base of Unit tests. It's not an automated test system, as it requires spoon-feeding boolean results. The burden to define and/or assemble comparison data is on the user. Which it shouldn't be. PHPUnit only adds convolutedness and a script iterator. PHPT was a lot closer to separating testing code from testing data, but is likewise unautomated in requiring to assemble it manually.
PHPUnit is the defacto standard, but just look how this worked out for actual usage. So really I see a need for something significantly more appropriate on PHP. (Neither SimpleTest nor SnapTest are departuring from the JUnit bloat.)

AMY IVY, Cornell Cooperative Extension
---- — The peak of fall color may be over, but there are still plenty of beautiful things to look at, especially if you can get up close.
When I'm whizzing along the Northway on my way to work, only the showiest sights pop out. There is one spot I particularly like this time of the year, after most of the leaves have fallen. It's a swampy area that has an expanding patch of winterberry, a native deciduous holly, growing alongside it. The berries are absolutely gorgeous right now, especially when the sun shines on them. They are bright red and easy to see from quite a distance. Soon they'll be devoured by hungry birds so I've learned to pay special attention around this time each year so I don't miss their annual show of color.
Many other beautiful sights are all around if you can get out into the woods. We are fortunate to have hiking/walking trails nearby on the Champlain Area Trails system, www.champlainareatrails.com, as well as at Point Au Roche State Park and others.
Hunting season has begun, so I always wear a bright orange vest over my jacket, and our dog, my walking companion, wears one, too. Here are just some of the interesting things I've seen on my walks through the woods in the past two weeks.
Believe it or not, there is a shrub in bloom now. Witch hazel is native shrub that waits until its leaves turn yellow and start to fall before producing its annual flower show, sometime in mid- to late October. The bright yellow petals are delicate but appear in clusters so they aren't too hard to spot if you're looking. I find this beauty mostly along the edges of wooded trails and in hedgerows.
The recent rains have encouraged all kinds of mushrooms to emerge. I scan the ground as I walk, paying particular attention to rotting logs, old tree stumps and dying trees. They come in all sorts of shapes, colors and sizes and change from day to day. Mushrooms are only the tip of a much larger fungal organism growing inside the rotting wood. They play an important role in helping turn dead trees into soil through decomposition.
Mosses are enjoying all the moisture, too, and I've seen lush carpets of moss on boulders, fallen trees and in large mounds on the forest floor. Ferns often like the same conditions. I walked by a huge bolder last weekend that was carpeted in moss on its sides with polypody ferns growing like a toupee on top.
One of my favorite ferns — the Christmas fern — is coming into its glory now. It is visible all summer but is often overshadowed by other ferns. These other ferns die back as cold weather sets in, but not the Christmas fern. It stays bright green into January and is beautiful after a light snowfall when its dark green fronds contrast so nicely with the white snow. If you look at a frond closely, you'll notice that each little "leaflet" on the front is shaped like a Christmas stocking. That trick might help you remember its name. Also, it's the only fern I know of that still looks great at Christmastime.
A lot of people get discouraged as fall progresses and the landscape becomes drab. But if you look closely, you can still find lots of beauty out there to enjoy, for at least awhile longer.

The Chargers announced Wednesday that they have signed S Paul Oliver to a one-year contract and placed LB Jonas Mouton on injured reserve.
Oliver, who played in 44 games with the Chargers from 2007-10, signed with the Saints after the lockout before being released following training camp. He has three career interceptions and 11 career starts.
Mouton, a 2011 second-round pick by the team, injured his shoulder in the Chargers' preseason finale against the 49ers. He had been inactive for the first two regular-season games.

Spearhead of the ''Arab Spring'' on the political/sociological scene, The Eagles of Carthage are back to the Africa Cup of Nations after failing to make it pass the group stage in the 2010 edition. Not a stellar African power since winning the ACN in 2004, Tunisia qualified to the competition by finishing 2nd in its group behind Botswana, against whom they lost twice. It's not a strong foundation to build on to conquer a difficult tournament like the ACN. The good news is that, since 1994, Tunisia has always been present in thee Africa Cup of Nations.
A Rich Local Football
Taking over the reigns of the team after a bad start in the qualifiers, Sami Trabelsi took the local route to build half of the team. Eleven of the twenty three players come from the local championship, local players that won the 2011 CHAN (African Nations Championship), an African competition in which nations are represented by players who play in their respective local divisions. Sami Trabelsi is going for the best players for the group, for his philosophy, not necessarily the ''star players'' that play in Europe.
A Defensive Culture
Not finding really known for playing an all offensive attacking style, Tunisia has always relied on its defence at club and national team level , a pride for the nation. Like a chess game, Tunisia will play a very tactical and strategic game mixed with a physical roughness not to be underestimated, usually only needing one goal to shut it down. The Haggui-Abdennour duo has been the axe of steel on which the Eagles of Carthage have relied on. From their last four friendlies, Tunisia has only conceded two goals.
Projected Starting Lineup (4-3-3)
GK Aymen Mathlouthi, LB Ammar Jemmal, CB Karim Hagui, CB Aymen Abdennour, RB Bilel Ifa, DM Adel Chedli CM Mejdi Traoui CM Yassine Chikhaoui, LF Sami Allagui, RF Oussama Darragi, CF Issam Jemaa
Key Player
Oussama Darragi: The key player in Tunisia's conquest of the 2011 CHAN, the 24 year-old is won the 2011 Best African player among players playing on the continent. A classical number 10, he has a technical elegance to a point that he is compared to an artist. A tall midfielder with scoring ability (10 goals in the Tunisian league), all offensive hopes will be put on him with the inconsistency of the team in the offensive sector.
Quarterfinal loss to Ghana: In Group C, in which a derby against Morocco awaits them, followed by an unknown Niger team and finishing with co-host Gabon, Tunisia is not favorite to come out 1st in the group but experience and cohesion in the group will get them past the group stage. Predicting a 2nd place finish in Group C, Tunisia should meet African giant Ghana and I do not see them upsetting the Black Stars.

On paper, Mark Bocek vs. Rafael dos Anjos looked like a pretty even matchup up. Dos Anjos wasn't having any of that though, completely dominating Bocek over 15 minutes to take a unanimous decision in their UFC 154 lightweight bout. Bocek couldn't get Dos Anjos to the floor despite a ton of attempts, and RDA looked very good with some hard strikes and solid grappling. All three judges had it 30-27 for the Brazilian.
A lot of the early work in the bout was against the cage, with both fighters jockeying for position. Bocek worked hard for a takedown that didn't come, and Dos Anjos landed three nice knees to the body. Dos Anjos landed a few strikes, and stuffed another two takedown attempts. A few strikes rounded out the round for RDA.
The second round began with...a swift kick to the balls. Dos Anjos was obviously in some discomfort, but didn't take long to restart. Dos Anjos reversed a Bocek takedown attempt and got on top of him against the cage. RDA looked for a kimura in a weird position against the cage. He gave it up, but Bocek ended up with a big cut under his eye. Dos Anjos stuffed yet another takedown attempt and took Bocek's back, beating him up with punches.
After 90 seconds of grappling against the cage, Bocek almost got a takedown. But he didn't succeed, and Dos Anjos reversed with a big slam. Bocek looked for a kimura but Rafael easily got away. Bocek tried again for a takedown against the cage, but RDA was just not going down. Dos Anjos started clowning a round a bit late, throwing spinning kicks and wild strikes. It was all RDA no matter what though.
Dos Anjos picked up his third straight win with the victory, and has won seven of his last nine overall. Bocek drops to 7-5 in the UFC with the loss.

Their comments came as Mozilla's head of engineering acknowledged that the browser's final delivery date will slip.
[ Check out the InfoWorld review "How secure is Firefox?" And for the full Test Center rundown on browser security, see InfoWorld's special report. | Keep up on the latest tech news headlines at InfoWorld News, or subscribe to the Today's Headlines newsletter. ]
In a message posted to a company message forum, Firefox developer David Baron wondered how long Firefox 3.1 should be held up by TraceMonkey problems. "Without TraceMonkey, we probably could have shipped 3.1 final by now, or, if not now, within the next month," Baron said. "I think there should be a limit to the amount we're willing to slip 3.1 to accommodate TraceMonkey, and I think we should decide what that limit is."
Graydon Hoare, a Mozilla developer who works on TraceMonkey, agreed. "I have to concur here," he said in a message on the same forum thread. "TraceMonkey is really cool tech, and a remarkably quick initial development, but it's not the whole enchilada of the browser." Hoare, however, said it made more sense to disable TraceMonkey by default -- an approach used through Beta 1 -- rather than pull it from the product.
Mozilla has made much of TraceMonkey, and the performance boost it gives Firefox, since it introduced the new JavaScript engine last summer. But TraceMonkey bugs, and the slow pace in patching them, were responsible for delays last month, and for a three-week stretch this month when Mozilla put off scheduling the next preview, Beta 3.
The biggest bug now delaying Beta 3's release is a TraceMonkey issue.
But Mozilla will probably not pull the engine, said Mike Shaver, Mozilla's vice president of engineering, in an interview Saturday. "We're always looking at all of our choices, but I don't think it's likely," he said. "TraceMonkey is a big part of Firefox 3.1, and a big part of what we want to have for users."

Plotinus is primarily remembered for his teachings, which were collected by Porphyry into a volume called the Enneads. This work gives Plotinus's accounts of the religions and cults of his age. He was interested in the occult but only in a detached and speculative way. He was indifferent to traditional paganism but critical of the Gnostic Christian heretics who preached the mystical dualism of the divine, which he regarded as antiphilosophical, un-Greek, and emotional superstition. His own religious beliefs inclined toward the idea that one could achieve a spiritual union with the good (understood as the Platonic idea of a perfect realm of the ideal) through philosophic reflection.

DAMASCUS, Va. — For bicyclists riding the Virginia Creeper Trail, gravity rules.
Starting at Whitetop Station, elevation 3,576 feet, the trail begins a long downhill stretch. As in 14 straight miles. That's right, it's all downhill except for the last few miles to Damascus, the end point for most cyclists.
Sounds like your kind of trail? Well, get on a knobby-tired mountain bike, pedal briskly for about a quarter mile and then coast as the crushed-gravel trail slopes downward.
Coast through hardwood forests thick with rhododendron. Break out into sun-splashed pastures and hayfields marked with sagging red barns. Roll along beside Whitetop Laurel Creek, whose rapids and glassy pools hide brook, brown and rainbow trout.
Small wonder this super-scenic, don't-break-a-sweat trail yearly draws tens of thousands of bicyclists to the southwestern Virginia mountains. Visitors rent a bike in Damascus, or bring their own, ride a 30-minute shuttle to Whitetop Station and spend three to four hours cruising their way back.
"You can sit on a rock and watch the rapids" said Blake Ragsdale, 43, of Thomasville, after an April ride with friends Stephen Grimes, 40, and Karalyn Grimes, 27, of Lexington. "Get to enjoy that while we're mounted on our two-wheel steeds."
The trail follows the rail bed of the defunct "Virginia Creeper" train, so named because of its slow crawl up the mountains. From the early 1900s, the Creeper ran 76 miles from Abingdon, Va. through Damascus, across Whitetop into North Carolina, through Ashe County to Todd. In 1933, West Jefferson became the southern terminus. The train carried freight and passengers until it shut down in 1977, its piercing whistle heard no more.
An ambitious rails-to-trails project converted 33.4 miles of abandoned rail bed, from Abingdon to the N.C. line, into a multiuse trail. With 47 trestles and bridges, the trail opened in 1984 to cyclists, walkers and horse riders. The N.C. trail bed reverted to property owners, who thwarted an attempt by the state in 2000 to extend the Creeper trail 14 miles into Ashe County. Today, nearly 200,000 users a year traverse the trail, according to the U.S. Forest Service.
The trail's hub is Damascus, whose lifeblood is the Creeper and the Appalachian Trail, which goes through town and overlays the Creeper in three places before veering off into the Jefferson National Forest. Damascus calls itself "Trail Town USA." Hirsute hikers with bulging backpacks share the trail with helmeted cyclists in spandex shirts and shorts.
In addition to Appalachian Trail hikers, cyclists also may see the quintessential Creeper biker, Lawrence Dye, who lives near Bristol, Va. Dye, 82, has ridden 180,000 miles on the trail since 1990. Last year, he put in 5,582 miles on his Litespeed bike. "I started out riding for pleasure," he said. He pedals three to four days a week, sometimes doing 40 miles, sometimes the full 66-mile roundtrip from Abingdon and back, sans shuttle.
Dye will break the ribbon Monday at the completion of a new trestle near Abingdon. A 2011 tornado took out the existing 680-foot-long trestle.
At Whitetop Station, a mile from the N.C. line, a continual cavalcade of shuttle vans and bike trailers unload one-way cyclists. A quarter-mile away is a replica of the original station.
From here, it's rapid transit. The elevation drops 1,600 feet over 14 miles. Three miles away, cyclists emerge from a tunnel of trees at Green Cove Station. The 100-year-old, restored station/post office/country store was the community's center during the twice-a-day train's heyday.
Visitors can view photos of the "Virginia Creeper" taken by renowned train photographer Winston Link. The stationmaster communicated with other stations by telegraph. A faded directory lists the Morse Code call sign for each. Damascus, for example, was long (dash), short (dot), long (dash).
Farther along, at Taylors Valley, log cottages border Whitetop Laurel Creek. A large pasture bounded by weighted cattle gates covers a hillside. At the lower end of the valley, calorie-short bikers can cross the creek for a treat at the "Creeper Trail Cafe."
Long-time Creeper cyclist Stephen Grimes said he's ridden 30-40 other trails, including some in Europe and Asia. "I would say this is the most beautiful of all," he said. "The trick to this trail is not to take it quickly."
Added Karalyn Grimes: "I would recommend it to anyone who has kids. It's beautiful and easy."

The Bills released veteran LB Kirk Morrison on Monday. The 30-year-old had not played in a game this season.
Morrison, who had more than 116 tackles in each season from 2005-09 with the Raiders, signed a contract last March to stay with the Bills. In 2011, he appeared in 14 games and made seven tackles, one sack and one pass defensed.
Morrison played in every game from 2005-10, missing only one start. In 2010, he started every game for Jacksonville and had 89 tackles.
The roster spot created by Morrison's release will presumably be used on an offensive lineman, as the Bills lost C Eric Wood to a knee injury.

text: I have owned a pair of Shiver Mocs for two years and am extremely happy with them. They are very comfortable and warm, but not too warm to be worn indoors. I wore the Shiver Mocs the first year when up skiing at Lake Tahoe. Great for to and from putting on my ski boots and when out and about in the cold. This past winter I worked at Heavenly Ski Resort and wore them almost every day working outside, on my feet for 6-8 hours, at the base of the gondola there. They were very comfortable and the light insulation was perfect with a pair of Smartwool socks. It was a warmer than usual winter and the insulation in the Shiver Mocs was just right. I just used thicker socks when needed. The tread is aggressive and "sticky" which provided excellent traction on the snow and ice. The shoes are still in excellent shape and I will be wearing again next fall and winter. A note on sizing.... My size in these is a 10R, though uninsulated Jungle Mocs fit me in a 9.5R. May be that the insulation takes up an extra 1/2 size or the thickness of the socks worn with it. I highly recommend the Merrell Shiver Moc 2 for wear during the winter months.

Internship Guidelines
WHAT is an internship?
National Association of Colleges & Employers (NACE) recommends the following definition:
An internship is a form of experiential learning that integrates knowledge and theory learned in the classroom with practical application and skills development in a professional setting. Internships give students the opportunity to gain valuable applied experience and make connections in professional fields they are considering for career paths; and give employers the opportunity to guide and evaluate talent.
The National Society for Experiential Education defines an internship as..."a carefully monitored work or volunteer experience in which an individual has intentional learning goals and reflects actively on what he or she is learning throughout the experience." The key phrases in this definition are "carefully monitored," "intentional learning goals," and "reflects actively."
WHY should I do an Internship?
- Employers like to hire recruits with experience.
- Internships provide "real world" experience.
- Gain skills and information.
- Increase your marketability to future employers.
- Confirm that you have chosen the correct employment field or discover you haven't chosen the right field of work for you.
- It is a chance to observe company or organization culture, management style and expectations.
- Explore different career options.
- Assess your skills, abilities and gifts compared to others in your field of choice.
- Make connections and contacts to utilize in your job search.
- Develop relationships with reference writers.
WHAT makes an internship legitimate?
NACE suggests the following criteria be met in order for an experience to qualify as an internship:
- The experience must be an extension of the classroom: a learning experience that provides for applying the knowledge gained in the classroom. It must not be simply to advance the operations of the employer or be the work that a regular employee would routinely perform.
- The skills or knowledge learned must be transferable to other employment settings.
- The experience has a defined beginning and end, and a job description with desired qualifications.
- There are clearly defined learning objectives/goals related to the professional goals of the student's academic coursework.
- There is supervision by a professional with expertise and educational and/or professional background in the field of the experience.
- There is routine feedback by the experienced supervisor.
- There are resources, equipment, and facilities provided by the host employer that support learning objectives/goals.
WHEN should I do an internship?The earlier you get started with field experience the better. Some companies or organizations do require you are a certain age or class status. A student may earn up to 12 credit hours between the 275 level (exploratory) and 475 level (preparatory) options. Typically a freshman or sophomore would participate in the 275 level and juniors and seniors the 475 level.
CAN I earn credit for an internship or field experience?
YES! Some majors require field experience to graduate. Other majors offer field experience as elective credits. Consult the University catalog and meet with your advisor before you apply for or begin an internship. Your advisor may also have recommendations for internship sites. He/she will provide input and direction for your learning objectives outlined on the Field Experience Application form. (Go to the Registrar webpage, and click on "I need to arrange an internship" to download the Field Experience Application form.
You MUST register for credit and complete the Field Experience Application form BEFORE the field experience begins or you will not earn credit. Your application form must approved by the department chair and your advisor, and submitted to the registrar for enrollment. Field experience credit cannot be granted for past experiences. You must complete the field experience during the semester in which you are registered. Each academic department handles the supervision of the field experience.
HOW do I locate an internship or field experience opportunity?
- Prepare an updated resume and cover letter to show how you are qualified for an internship and how you will contibute as an intern. Assistance is available from the Career Services Office.
- If your advisor is unable to locate an internship site for you, you may need to conduct your own search. Career Services has the following resources to help you in this process:
- Search openings in BruinCareers (via mygfu) - New internships are added daily. Create a "job agent" in BruinCareers in order to be alerted when new positions that meet you criteria get entered.
- Enroll in GEED 216 Become Workplace Familiar: Getting Internship - Take this 1-credit online course the semester BEFORE which you'd like to complete an internship. This course is designed to help you create 5-10 internship leads in 15 weeks. Plus, you develop your resume, cover letter, and interviewing skills!
- Internship Fair (held annually each Fall) - This fair draws 15-20 active employers to campus and includes internships for a broad range of majors (not just business!)
- First Avenue Career & Graduate School Expo (April 5, 2013) - George Fox Unviersity partners with 8 other top liberal arts colleges in Oregon to coordinate this fair. Over 100 employers & graduate schools are represented across multiple majors and industries.
- Schedule a "Career Conversation" to discuss internships - We can introduce you to several key resources, facilitate connections with alumni, and guide you in presenting yourself as a qualified candidate. Contact us.

I currently train with Ben Moore at 1-0-7 Barbell (a.k.a. Ben's House). Im a former Offensive lineman for the University of Kentucky (Ben, Insert joke here) and have competed in 6 Powerlifting meets to date. Was introduced to the sport by Jim Wendler and JL Holdsworth, (both from EFS), and Kevin Deweese, (now Head S&C coach at Morehead State Univ.) while they were my strength coaches in college.
I have moved quite a bit with my job, but have settled in KC, and have a great crew to reain with in Ben, Reko and Sean.
I was up until last weekend playing Rugby competitively, until one of my teammates dislocated my knee for me, so my training is rather lame at this time.
If my knee is up to it, Im going to attempt competing in the UPA Pro/Am in Iowa in July. Lets see how it goes

Hope you recover quickly buddy!
I play rugby for my club at U19s, rugbys an awesome sport!
Good to see another rugby player posting a journal.
Think I just scored a slightly used Reverse Hyper for our gym, should know in a couple of days what the status is...will be driving back home to Kentucky to take delivery of it
DE Bench work tomorrow (or as I like to call it, the only productive work I can do with a broke wheel)

Yeah I used to train at Next Level fitness in North Scituate and their other location in Cumberland...Some great folks at both spots to train with...the N Scituate gym is VERY PL/Strongman Friendly....the Owner of all 3 locations is the state chair for the USAPL
Had the pleasure of training with Disa Hatfield and Jen Perry, they represented the USA Womens team at the IPF worlds this year
Part of me really misses New England, I had a lot of fun there...well as much fun as a Hillbilly from Appalachia can have in New England.

Will has been a great addition to our group...even if he is from Kentucky, LOL.
Hey we're good to go grab something to eat at 8. i'll call you in a bit.
my gut thanks you
DE Bench (all sets done in a sleevelss flannel...so you might want to refer to it as: "Larry the Cable Guy" DE Bench)
DE Flat Bench
10 x 3 145 lbs. (all sets done in 3 min total...i.e. 4-8 sec. rest between sets, with leg propped up as I'm still in a knee immobilizer brace)
JM Press
4 x 12
Lat Pulldown
5 x I lost count
Various JS Band exercises, consisting of:

Was planning on benching last night, but had an early appointment/eval. at my physical therapist, and I get to go back this afternoon for actual therapy.
Internal Monologue: What has rugby really done for me, besides dislocating my knee?
Hey, I may not be able to make it until 9 or so. Wife and little girl are going to Disney Princess on ice and I've got the little mrs. until they get back. I'll call you in a bit.

That last board press was a whole new exercise. It should be dubbed "the amazing dropping bar press", LOL.
yeah i miscalculated the speed a little bit...lol, the press was strong after the initial sternum fracture
ME Business Dinner and not drinking and making fun of the other trainees with my buddy Ben...PR!!!
trust me, I would have much rather been drinking beer and making fun of sean and reko
Went and jogged this morning for the first time since I hurt my knee...Its slowly getting better. The 3 double sessions of PT a week are really making it better, but unfortunately when the patella shifted it shredded part of my vastus medialis so I'm going to have a long recovery in getting my squat/DL right.
I'm planning on spending the summer doing Defrancos WS4SB to try and put some muscle tissue back on the bum leg. Lots of narrow stance squatting and quad work. I'll also be living on the prowler to keep in shape...probably 3 sessions a week of prowler and/or sled work.
If all goes well Im still going to go compete in the UPA Pro/Am in Dubuque Iowa in the Bench only competition. I know that my knee will not be ready by June, but I still want to compete, and it gives me an excuse to start learning my new Metal pro viking bencher.
Bodyweight was 310 this morning, post ****ter, pre-shower
Do you still have the other shirt? Bring it over on Wednesday.
yeah I do, its a/b a size too big for me, It'll make a great training shirt if I cant find a buyer
ME Beer drinking 04/02
Ben and I spent the evening coaching one of the younger members at 1-0-7 and drinking beer...many tall tales of epic proportion were shared...
and btw Sean had a good PR and is getting better day by day
now if my f'ing knee would get on board with getting back to 100% I would be happy, because this 6:30a physical therapy 4 days a week is for the birds
Friday 4/4/08: DE Upper
DE Bench - 10 x 3 x 135lbs
5 Board Press - 225x8, 315x8, 365x5, 405x5, 450x2, 500x1 (miss)

UMass Medical School's Center for Health Policy and Research is often asked to evaluate the effectiveness of Medicaid programs, examining services as well as outcomes and costs for difficult or high-risk conditions such as mental illness and chronic disease.
Using sophisticated analyses of administrative claims and medical record data, UMass Medical School's Center for Health Policy and Research can identify service gaps, measure the relative effectiveness of various treatments, or assess the impact of a policy change.
Depression in Community EldersThis study examined the cost and source of treatment for elders with depression and found that 85 percent of elders received treatment from their primary care physicians instead of a mental health professional, indicating a need for increased training and outreach to primary care physicians on how to manage psychiatric conditions within the elder population.
The Impact of Buprenorphine on Medicaid ExpendituresIn this study, UMass Medical School's Center for Health Policy and Research is examining the relative cost, utilization, and success rates of treatment for opioid addiction, comparing buprenorphine treatment with the more traditional methadone treatment.
Improving Treatment for Medicaid Beneficiaries with Co-Occurring DisordersThis five-state study found that individuals with co-occurring disorders often used hospital inpatient and emergency rooms to access health care, emphasizing the need to provide more cost-effective and accessible services for this population.
Population Selection and Program Monitoring for Vermont's Chronic Care Management and Care Coordination ProgramWith funding from the Office of Vermont Health Access (OVHA), the Center for Health Policy and Research developed a methodology to select Medicaid members for enrollment in Vermont's Chronic Care Management and Care Coordination programs. In addition, the Center for Health Policy and Research utilized Medicaid claims to monitor the quality of care provided to members enrolled in the two programs..
Impact of Substance Disorders on Medical Expenditures for Medicaid Beneficiaries with Behavioral Health DisordersIn a study funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, CHPR researchers used Medicaid claims from six states—Arkansas, Colorado, Georgia, Indiana, New Jersey and Washington—to compare the behavioral and general medical expenditures for individuals with and without substance use disorders.
The study found that, compared with other beneficiaries with behavioral health disorders, individuals with substance use disorders had significantly higher expenditures for physical health problems in five of the six states, a difference that remained statistically significant even after adjustment for higher overall disease burden among beneficiaries with addictions. CHPR researchers concluded that spending estimates based only on behavioral health diagnoses may significantly underestimate addictions-related costs, particularly for older adults.

Knock on almost any door in the Park At Independence Bend in Baytown and you'll likely find folks happy with their homes and neighbors.
"We just wanted to be more of a community and when we came across this smaller, quainter subdivision it just worked for us," homeowner Rebecca Sweetman said.
But what isn't working for most of the folks in the "small, quaint" subdivision. The deal they say was forced on them.
"It's just beyond belief," homeowner Brad Sweetman said.
Because of the economy, the home builder stopped construction in the subdivision leaving behind vacant lots in need of buyers. According to a letter, the land developer Chris Presley found a legal way to get rid of the lots. Make the homeowners buy them.
"We put our trash out on trash day and our houses are all painted the same color and we've done everything we thought we were supposed to do to be good homeowners and yes we've got a gun to our heads to do this," Rebecca Sweetman said.
As the letter states, the developer first offered to sell the lots to homeowners for 12 grand a lot or 96 thousand dollars.
"They had offered to sell the lots to us before at a higher price and in general people said no," homeowner Porter Yardrough said.
Then according to a second letter the homeowners got a revised offer from the developer. Buy 6 of the lots for 66 thousand dollars and he'll throw in the remaining two lots for free.
"Nobody told us anything about that, had they told us we wouldn't have moved here," homeowner Patrice Dalcour said.
When it came time to vote on it homeowners say they didn't have a snowball's chance since Presley the developer controls the association with 160 votes.
"He told us both times he would not use his majority votes he would do what the subdivision wanted," Sweetman said. "And yet at the time of every meeting he turns around and slaps those 160 votes out and leaves."
Developer Chris Presley told Fox 26 Investigates something homeowners say they've been wanting to hear.
Presley admits he asked the homeowners to buy the lots and said he thought it was in their best interest and would add value to their homes. But Presley said after seeing the reaction of a few homeowners he decided not to force the sale and explore other options.
"Your talking hundreds of thousands of people that could be in this same situation and don't know it," Brad Sweetman said. We didn't know it and we found out the hard way."
These folks worry other Houston area homeowners could face the same threat since their association guidelines gave Presley the legal right to force the sale if he chose to do so.
"These are not uncommon by-laws for this neighborhood," Yardrough said. "These are fairly common across the state of Texas."
That means anyone living or buying a home in an unfinished subdivision could find themselves forced to buy lots they don't want.
"It's not a good thing," Dalcour said.
"There needs to be some reasonable legislation to stop this from happening," Rebecca Sweetman said.
Hopefully lawmakers will be taking a close look at this one.

This book goes far beyond anything that's been written about "The Queen of Soul" or her music before. I Never Loved A Man The Way I Love You is the story of a great achievement and includes scores of fresh interviews with Wexler, the session men from Muscle Shoals, Aretha's own musicians, and many others. It gives insight into a star more complex and determined than her modern diva image would seem to indicate. Aretha, a teenage mother and daughter of a commanding preacher father, rose above her circumstances and transformed them into art. She gave the Civil Rights Movement, already well underway in 1967 when the album came out, a passionate call to arms. And with "Respect" - along with the title track, one of the album's first two singles - she provided the burgeoning feminist movement with an enduring theme song.
The first serious, non-biographical look at Aretha Franklin's work, I Never Loved A Man The Way I Love You will deepen even ardent fans' understanding of one of the great soul artists of our time, a direct descendant of Bessie Smith and Billie Holliday.

Bobby Byrd was convicted on Wednesday for aggravated flight from an officer after a lengthy and dangerous high speed chase, back in 2011. The pursuit ended with officers having to forcefully remove Byrd from the Red River. Because of his past run-ins with the law the Caddo Parish District Attorney's Office wants to put Byrd away for a long time."They're trying to give him a life sentence on something that would have ordinarily carried a two year sentence," said Martha Hays, Byrd's Mother.The chase started when officers spotted Byrd's vehicle, which matched the description of a vehicle used in a string of nightclub robberies. Byrd's family says he never robbed anyone but because of a condition he has he chose to run."Bobby is what you call a paranoid schizophrenic, bad. He gets scared and if he sees something that don't look right he runs," said Hays.Bobby Byrd's family says he does deserve some time behind bars for running from police but they feel his crime does not merit life in prison. The final decision on sentencing will be handed down by Judge Emanuel; however family members say they are appealing to a higher judge."The only person I know to call on is God. I am asking this community, more than ever, to come through and just lift us up in prayer," said Mary Boyd.Family members tell KSLA News 12 that Byrd is suing the city of Shreveport for the injuries he sustained while being pulled from the Red River. Byrd will be back in court on Monday, January 28.Copyright 2012 KSLA. All rights reserved.

CINCINNATI (AP) -- The soldier being held as a suspect in the gunning down of 16 Afghan civilians was remembered Saturday by people who knew him growing up in Ohio as a good-natured, smart student who was a key player on a high school football team that included a future NFL player.
Those who knew Army Staff Sgt. Robert Bales as a teenager were stunned to hear him accused of the deadly shootings.
"I'm just terribly surprised that it would have come to that," said Jack Bouldin, a retired Norwood High School physical education teacher and basketball coach. "Just mind-boggling."
He described Bales as "fairly happy-go-lucky," a good student who enjoyed P.E.
Steve Berling was a teammate of Bales' in the early 1990s at the high school in Norwood, a mostly blue-collar Cincinnati suburb of some 20,000 people. Berling and Bouldin both said Saturday that they recognized Bales from the recent Army photo now in the news, and Berling recalled that Bales had joined the Army after an investment business didn't do well.
"This is some crazy stuff it it's true," Berling said of the Afghanistan allegations. He and Bales were all-league players on a team that starred running back Marc Edwards, who played for Notre Dame and NFL teams including the Super Bowl champion New England Patriots. Bales played offensive line and linebacker/defensive line in high school.
"He was a great guy with a huge heart," Berling said. He said Bales had a part-time job in high school helping care for an autistic young person, and made sure the youth got outside and took walks with him.
Bales was a team captain, and his leadership is described in a recent book by writer Aaron Smith about Edwards, titled: "Odyssey: From Blue Collar, Ohio to Super Bowl Champion." Edwards recounts being approached by Bales, who was disappointed when their coach moved the younger Edwards into his middle linebacker position and shifted Bales to nose tackle.
"I'd love to talk to you about different things I can help you with at middle linebacker," Edwards said Bales told him. Edwards said that showed him leadership and motivation.
"This guy was .... one of the stars of the team and he's sucking up his pride to help me out," Edwards said in the book.
Later in the book, Edwards recounted spending a weekend of playing golf and hitting pubs with Bales in Columbus a few years after high school.
Berling, who has an insurance agency, recalled Bales always having an interest in the military and war history. He was in an advanced placement history class with him and said Bales was far ahead of him in knowledge.
"I remember him and the teacher just going back and forth on something like talking about the details of the Battle of Bunker Hill," he said. "He knew history, all the wars."
He said Bales went on to Ohio State University studying business, and later worked handling investments but soured on that business when clients lost money during a market downturn, Berling said.
"I guess he didn't like it when people lost money," he said.
He said Bales came from a large family, with other brothers who played football.
Police in another Cincinnati suburb said it might be home to a person related to the U.S. soldier.
Authorities on Friday night patrolled a quiet neighborhood in Evendale, Ohio, and released a statement saying a relative of the soldier may live there. Police Chief Niel Korte asked reporters to refrain from identifying the resident out of worry the safety of that person and neighborhood would be jeopardized.

text: BOSTON (AP) - Authorities say a man who was on the witness list for the racketeering trial of reputed mobster James "Whitey" Bulger has died. The Middlesex District Attorney's Office says Stephen Rakes was found dead Wednesday afternoon in Lincoln, Mass., with no obvious signs of trauma to his body. Authorities are conducting an autopsy to determine the 59-year-old Quincy man's cause and manner of death. Prosecutors say Rakes and his former wife were forced to sell Bulger their South Boston liquor store in 1984 to use as a headquarters for his gang and as a source of legitimate income. But another prosecution witness has testified that wasn't true, and it was unclear whether prosecutors would put Rakes on the stand. Rakes had been attending the trial.(Copyright 2013 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.)

The $85 million Mittal Group has the capacity to produce over 1 billion coin blanks at its state-of-the-art plant in Indore and with its recent initiatives, it became the first Indian company to export minted currency coins, in association with the Indian Government Mints.
The centenary year logo is a blend of sunrise glory, coupled with sun-rays like multi-directional success. The new and vibrant group approach is reflected in the blue streak that crosses conventional boundaries.
In 2009, Mittal Group has successfully completed the maiden order of Rs 10 bimetallic coin-blanks of the Government of India. We are now executing the order for Nickel-Brass strips for manufacturing Rs 5 coins for India Government Mints.
The Mittal Group has divested all its interest in the Aluminium cookware business in the company Mittal Udyog and is now focussed on its core business – coinage – under the flagship company, Mittal Appliances Limited.
As part of the commitment to the society, Mittal Group has planted more than 1,000 trees in and around its plant in Pithampur and is continuing the same this year as well.

TERRE HAUTE (AP) — A western Indiana man has received a 24-year prison sentence for confining three of his adopted children to their bedroom for weeks, depriving them of food, water and bathroom access.
Forty-year-old Larry Russell of Terre Haute was sentenced Wednesday by Vigo Superior Court Judge John Roach, who told Russell he had treated the three boys "like animals."
Russell pleaded guilty to neglect and criminal confinement charges for the boys' confinement. The Tribune-Star reports the boys had created holes and tunnels so they could escape from their room to get food, water and access to the bathroom.
Four adopted children lived with Russell and his wife, Nikki, along with their own biological child.
Nikki Russell is scheduled to enter a guilty plea Nov. 19 in the case.

By Hector Longo
---- —
One afternoon this week, Central Catholic football coach Chuck Adamopoulos popped in a special game film for his team to watch.
It was of the "Game for the Ages," or the "Field Goal or Not," Thanksgiving game of 1989 between Central and rival Andover High.
"I don't know why everyone still talks about that game," said Raider captain Santino Brancato, of Salem, N.H., citing the controversial kick that is still debated now, despite the fact that he wasn't born when it happened. "That field goal was absolutely good."
That field goal — good or not by Central's Glen Lacroix on that frigid November morning — is still, 23 years later, the rallying point for one of the state's fiercest Turkey Day football rivalries between Central and Andover.
A reported crowd of 8,500 ringed Lawrence's Veterans Memorial Stadium that Saturday after Thanksgiving, when earlier snow forced the holiday postponement. Tomorrow morning at 10:30, a similar-sized crowd is expected at Andover's Lovely Field as Central and Andover hook up for the 40th reunion.
With Central, 9-1, and Andover, 9-1, that means the Merrimack Valley Conference champion and a trip to the upcoming Eastern Mass. playoffs are at stake. It is the main event on a holiday flock of main events here in Massachusetts. And it could be an epic.
By Tuesday afternoon, almost 3,000 advance tickets had been sold between the two schools.
"We're expecting a sensational game out of Central Catholic on Thanksgiving," said Andover quarterback C.J. Scarpa, the state's most prolific passer this season with 30 touchdown passes. "As a senior in high school, it's a dream.You can't ask for more than facing your greatest rival with a championship on the line."
Scarpa, following in the footsteps of his dad, Carmen, himself a former Andover QB, understands what history means in this rivalry, which stands at 20 wins for Central, 18 for Andover and 1 tie.
Tomorrow's heavyweight collision is a stark contrast in styles. Andover has Scarpa and a high-flying stable of thoroughbred receivers in Andrew Deloury, Cam Farnham and Will Heikkinen who power a lethal offense that has put up 38.6 points a game.
Meanwhile, Central has taken more of a plodding approach, relying on a defense that has allowed only 16.2 points a game.
"We respect their offense and how they play, but our defense has been a dominant force all season long," said Brancato, the No. 2 tackler on the Raiders defense behind sophomore Markus Edmunds.
If recent history is any indication, the fans should be treated to an absolute classic.
Last year, Central Catholic trailed by 20 points in the third quarter only to rally and stun Andover, 48-46. Two years ago in a pretty similar situation, Andover had its way in a 19-7 win that propelled E.J. Perry's team into the Eastern Mass. Division 1 playoffs for the first time in 35 years.
"We expect to win," said Brancato. "But whatever happens, we know it's going to be an amazing event."
A year ago after the win, an emotional Central offensive lineman Christian Nunez said, "This is, hands down the best day of my life."
Expect that kind of sentiment again from one of the two teams early tomorrow afternoon.
BASKETBALL COACHES GET INTO THE SPIRIT It's been an amazing fall season for the Central Catholic and Andover High football teams, so much so that the boys basketball coaches at each school are looking to get into the spirit of tomorrow's Turkey Day classic showdown. Central coach Rick Nault and Andover's David Fazio came up with the wager on the game. If Central wins, Fazio has to wear Central colors for the Warrior game at Central this winter. Nault says he's got a sweet Central sweater vest all picked out for Fazio. If Andover wins, Nault will be dressed in Navy and Gold at Dunn Gym for their game. May the better team win.

Giving Hearts Day on Feb. 13 is a 24-hour online fundraising event for more than 230 non-profits and charitable causes throughout North Dakota and Western Minnesota.
"There's a huge opportunity to do more good, but money becomes one of the biggest barriers," says Dakota Medical Foundation and Impact Foundation Executive Director Pat Traynor.
Giving Hearts Day helps build the capacity of non-profits and train them to become exceptional fundraisers- and it has a big impact. It's one of the biggest events for the First Choice Clinic, which supports young women in unplanned pregnancies.
"It allows non-profits like us to generate excitement, generate a chance to tell our story and then have people help us online with donations," says the non-profit's Executive Director Tom Frei.
It's a growing event, allowing even more programs with all missions.
"This event has grown from about 40 non-profits that were all health-related back in 2008 to over 230 charitable causes," says Traynor.
Including arts like the opera or theatres, science centers and whatever you believe in and want to support. One such organization is the North Dakota Family Alliance.
"It's a state-wide, Christian-based non-profit that seeks to strengthen family and protect our family values," says Executive Director Ton Freier.
No matter what you believe, the event has expanded so you can help those groups out.
"We can have people that are interested in supporting us do so online," says Freier. "So it's a great opportunity," he says.
With the common denominator in all groups being improving the quality of life in North Dakota and Minnesota.
Any non-profit or charitable cause can participate in Giving Hearts Day as long as they meet the criteria and go through the necessary training.
Traynor says it doesn't matter the mission, as long as the group is making a positive difference.

DALLAS -- Eight-year-old Lauren is among the crowd for a flu shot at the CVS Minute Clinic on Preston Road in Dallas. Convenience is only part of the reason why.
"I called her pediatrician yesterday," said Rhonda Chaney, Lauren's mother. "They said they were out of them."
Shortages of flu vaccine are now being reported across North Texas.
"We've ordered additional children's vaccine," said Dallas County Health Director Zachary Thompson.
Thompson is particularly worried about access for the poor, who can't afford the $15-to-$30 the vaccine costs at many locations. Dallas County Health and Human Services had about 200 doses for adults left Friday.
"That's why we're ordering a thousand doses," Thompson said. "We want to make sure those who are uninsured that they have the ability to get flu vaccine."
Dallas, Tarrant, Denton and Collin County health departments all have limited amounts of flu vaccine. The health departments also accept Medicaid.
Many chain pharmacies and grocery stores do not accept Medicaid, but do accept insurance. Patients are being encouraged to call in advance to determine coverage, prices, and availability.
Because of a spike in flu cases, some area pharmacies have run of Tamiflu, the virus-fighting prescription medication that can lessen the duration of the sickness if it's taken within the first 36 hours. Doses for children are running particularly low.
"We are having a shortage from the pharmacies, as far as the liquid [goes]," said CVS Minute Clinic nurse practitioner Doris Harvey-Boston. "So we're sending it to companies that compound the product."
Health experts say when it comes to medicine or vaccine, people need to call in advance to determine availability. The Minute Clinic on Preston Road ran out of the nasal flu-mist version, which is what Lauren would have preferred.
But when faced with getting the flu, or the available shot, even an eight year old says the choice is easy.
"The flu shot," Lauren said.

Comments about adidas MInnesota Timberwolves Kevin Love Revolution 30 Swingman Road Jersey:
First off, this jersey was a gift. Second, Adidas should take over all sports jerseys. The Swingman is the best Premier grade jersey out there. The jersey looks awesome and is beyond comfortable. The only thing I would change would be to have the fonts enlarged, but I'm just picky. If you've got the cash, I'd suggest you grip one of these for the summer.
