Burton Channel System Binding Compatibility
By: Chris Zimmerman, Seattle, WA: Maybe you have tried the Burton Channel System before and the specially designed Burton EST Bindings and enjoy it. Maybe you like Burton snowboards but Union Bindings…that's ok too. We know it can be confusing to figure out a new(ish) mounting system and exactly which bindings will fit on your new board. There is nothing worse that getting all the way home or finally getting your box in the mail only to realize that you bought two incompatible products! With the right info, hopefully this will never happen. We have a lot of knowledgeable staff at evo, and are always down to answer any questions about the Burton Channel System Binding Compatibility or anything else.
So what's up with the Channel System anyway and how can it benefit you?
(2014 Burton Custom Flying V Snowboard)
As you can see from this Custom Flying V Snowboard there are two channels in the board where traditionally binding inserts would be located. These channels allow micro stance-width and angle adjustments. They also allow the board to fully flex all the way through by getting rid of the dead-spot under your foot where the inserts would be. It's pretty cool and gives you near limitless stance options. But not all bindings work with the Burton Channel System, so you have to make sure you are buying the right ones.
(2014 Burton Cartel EST Snowboard Bindings)
The first, and recommended, binding for the channel system would be any Burton EST binding. These bindings were specially designed to work hand-in-hand with the channel system. For the EST bindings, Burton took out all the hard plastic from the tray and replaced it with a flexible EVA foam (like what other bindings use for padding on their trays). The bindings are mounted with two screws on the outside of the binding, so the binding will fully flex with your board under your foot. Some people also like the EVA footbeds because you are only riding on soft foam, rather than hard plastic or metal. Not into the whole EST thing? Well check this out:
(2014 Union Contact Pro Snowboard Bindings)
This binding works on the channel system too! Union Bindings changed their disc to be compatible with the Burton Channel. (note that Union bindings will only fit on a Burton Channel board 2011 or newer).
Other bindings brands that are compatible: 2011 and later Drake, 2011 and later Flux, and 2011 and later Flow snowboard bindings.
I know what some of you are thinking…didn't Forum have the Slider System on their boards a long time ago and it didn't work that well? Correct. The Channel is different from the slider system in the way that it has one tray built into the board that makes it super strong and flexible. The only way to see if The Channel is right for you is to try it out.
If you have any other questions, Burton put together this nifty tool to help figure out if your bindings will work on Burton boards or not:

Useful — to a point. But it didn't explain what I really wanted to know: the differences and compatibility of the old channel system and the new 2011 system.

The Lubbock County Sheriff's department needs your help to find three suspects in a morning robbery.
Sheriff Deputies responded here to the C&L Bookstore in the 9600 block on Highway 114 around 7 a.m. Thursday. Investigators say the suspects walked in with a handgun, bound the clerk with duck tape and stole more than $250.
NewsChannel 11 obtained surveillance video from the time of the robbery. In the video, you can see the men in dark sweatshirts take money from the register. The video also reveals one of them wearing what appears to be women's panty hose on his head.
The suspects are described as white or Hispanic young men. Witnesses say they possibly left in an orange or red Ford F-150 extended cab pickup. The license plate is described to have a three and five in the tag.
If you know, anything about this robbery call the Lubbock County Sheriff's Office. That number is 775-1480.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Paul Ryan and Marco Rubio, two potential 2016 presidential candidates, are laying out pathways for their Republican Party and nudging a party still reeling from its loss to President Barack Obama.
Ryan, the GOP's vice presidential nominee in 2012 and a congressman from Wisconsin, is telling Republicans they can't look at the electorate as "our voters" and "their voters." Rubio, a senator from Florida, is ready to outline his views for the party going forward during a later set of remarks.
The pair is appearing at a dinner hosted by the foundation of Republicans' 1996 vice presidential nominee, the late Jack Kemp. While the dinner was held in honor of Kemp's legacy, Ryan and Rubio both had a chance to test out potential themes for a 2016 campaign.

Despite any dislike I have for various Coalition policies, it has been a long time since I have been this angered by a policy suggestion (at least a year I would say). Today I read "ISPs discuss central blacklisting body for piracy sites" on the Telegraph website (via @Jim_Watford). Just last week I tweeted in support of both BT and Talk Talk for challenging the authoritarian Labour 'Digital Economy Act 2010′. The Digital Economy Act planned only to collect data, contact ISPs which in turn would have to contact the end user. If the end-user in any way then, didn't comply and stop filesharing, the ISP would only throttle or temporarily disable Internet access.
I say "only" – despite the DEA being an atrocity of legislation – because compared to what I have read today, it would be like living in a truly free world. The new proposal filters the Internet access to begin with. Blocking websites that the group do not deem appropriate for us to use. (On a quick side note, comparing what this proposition to the IWF – is akin to comparing the cuts protestors on Saturday to Apartheid, the Suffragettes, or pretty much any cause which meant something ever). This new act will bypass the ISPs so that they have nothing to do in the matter.
I am absolutely furious that this Government could even be considering this. This is a coalition government where both parties were opposed to ID cards, both were opposed to the the CCTV nation and both were supposedly opposed to other aspects of the thinly-veiled nanny state which we live in. Both of these parties campaigned on civil liberties. Indeed, their agreement on civil liberties is one of the few places where both parties found it easy to get together last year. Both of these parties are supposed to be socially liberal. And importantly, both of these parties would condemn China or North Korea, because they both censored their citizens so much. And what the fuck are they doing now?
The Government should be closing its ears to ridiculous, civil liberties-eroding, freedom-stripping censorship such as this at the very first hurdle. I do not like to react irrationally about the nanny state that we may or may not be in. But if this is the first step they take, then what happens next? What happens when someone puts a link criticising the government? What happens when someone discusses chemistry online that could be misinterpreted as a bomb making kit? What happens when someone discuss a psychological problem that might make them seem manic or unsafe to the public? What happens when someone reveals information about a politician or a party, that they don't want to see? How long until the entire democratic process is reduced to a Korean-like safe search, where the concept of the Internet means nothing anymore? This is one of the most horrifying things I've read in a long time.

NI prison officer gunned down on motorway in 2012
A 33-year-old man has been charged with murdering prison officer David Black, who was gunned down on a motorway in Northern Ireland as he travelled to work.
Dissident republicans opposed to the peace process were blamed for the attack on the M1 motorway in County Armagh in November 2012.
He was the 31st member of the prison service to be killed in Northern Ireland, the first such murder in almost 20 years.
The suspect, who was detained yesterday in the Lurgan area of Co Armagh, is to appear in court in Craigavon later today.
A PSNI spokeswoman said the force wanted to thank Irish police for their help and support throughout a "difficult and complex" investigation spanning both sides of the border.

Sabbatical Leave Policy
This document describes the policies on this campus regarding sabbatical or academic leaves. Its aim is to ensure coherent and uniform guidelines and procedures and to clarify state policies. Further information is to be found in the State University Policies and Procedures related to Sabbatical Leaves in Article XIII, Title E, of the Policies of the Board of Trustees of the State University of New York.
A sabbatical leave is defined as a leave for the purpose of encouraging faculty members to engage in scholarly development or other activities that will increase their scholarly achievement and their capacity for service to the University. As a leave of absence with pay constitutes a significant investment on the part of the University in the future career of the individual faculty member, it is granted to eligible faculty on the understanding that the faculty member has an explicit obligation to return to his or her position at the University for a minimum of one year. If a faculty member fails to return from sabbatical to accept employment elsewhere, he or she will be expected to remit to the University any salary paid by the University during the leave period. At the conclusion of the sabbatical leave the faculty member must forward to the Provost, with the endorsement of their department Chair and Dean a detailed report on professional activities and accomplishments during the period of the sabbatical leave.
Application for a sabbatical should be made in writing on the appropriate form. The application should include a detailed description of the proposed research or other scholarly project and the relevance of the proposed activity in contributing to the University's objectives, as well as the suitability of the faculty member's background and qualifications for carrying out the project. Circumstances beyond control of the faculty member may necessitate a change in plans. All such changes must be approved, in writing, through the normal administrative channels as soon as such need is known. Applicants should also include information on significant scholarly contributions since the last sabbatical leave.
Sabbatical leave applications should include information on salary from any non-State University sources to be earned by the faculty member while on leave. Whether this sabbatical leave is for six months at full salary or half state salary for one year, the total salary to be earned while on sabbatical from state plus other sources should normally not exceed the faculty member's full basic annual salary rate (for faculty in the School of Medicine and Dental Medicine who are subject to Article 29 of the UUP agreement, this means their total annual compensation). Faculty applying for sabbatical leave may, with prior approval, accept fellowships, grants-in-aid, or earned income to assist in accomplishing the purpose of their leave. Any such income during the leave period which is to accrue from non-State University sources for assisting in scholarly and research objectives, for relocation expenses, or to offset loss of certain State University benefits (such as health and retirement contributions) may be allowed if proper detailed justification is provided. Salary from grants, contracts or fellowships may be paid for those on a one-half time leave. The amount to be paid can be as high as 50% of the regular annual salary, and the regular state line in all cases must reflect no more than a 50% salary rate.
The application form must be submitted to the department Chair no later than February 15 preceding the academic year for which the leave is requested. The department Chair must forward the application with an accompanying recommendation to the appropriate dean on or before March 1.
If the period of sabbatical is not the normal academic year or the Fall or Spring semesters, the application must be submitted to the department Chair no later than six months prior to the beginning date of the proposed sabbatical leave. Since no extra allocations of funds are available to implement the sabbatical policy, support of sabbaticals must be covered by regular departmental allocation. Therefore, the department Chair's recommendation should include a statement about the proposed method of handling the normal duties of the faculty member on leave.
On or before March 15, the dean of the division shall review the application and with his or her own recommendation forward it to the Provost for core campus divisions or the Vice President for Health Sciences, who has been designated by the Provost to approve applications submitted to deans of the Health Sciences schools. The Provost or the Vice President may approve such leave deemed appropriate and shall forward his or her recommendation to the President for final approval. It should be noted that administrative approval of applications for sabbatical leave will include both a budgetary and substantive review.
Illness, or other unplanned circumstances, may cause interruption of an approved sabbatical. In all such cases, the faculty member shall be placed on another leave, with or without salary as appropriate. The President may reestablish the balance of the sabbatical leave at the mutual convenience of the campus and the employee.
The above structure is to ensure the continued integrity of an extremely valuable University mechanism for the professional development of its faculty.

Enough of the gun show talk and thinking/worrying about my cancer, and imagining I will be doing this or that soon, I am going to turn off the laptop, in a moment, and go upstairs to bake an apple pie. Flour, ice cold shortening, water, salt, McIntosh and Granny Smith apples, a pie pan, a hot oven and a bit of magic make one one heck of a good apple pie. Are you thinking I forgot to mention sugar. Nope, I did not because there is a good chance I will not use any; if I do use it, it will be a lot less than you would be likely to use, maybe a tablespoon full, or two, and of brown sugar at that.
All the best,

Fort Myers Police officers are pounding the pavement – going door to door - asking folks to help save their jobs.
The fight continues to keep the department from shutting down.
It's a grassroots campaign to fight Referendum One.
"Charter amendment one is a charter amendment that will close the doors of the Fort Myers Police Department and turn over all law enforcement services to the Lee County Sheriff's Office," said Police Benevolent Association President Matt Sellers.
Officers and other supporters went door to door to make sure voters in Fort Myers know what it would mean.
"It's totally ridiculous living in this area here which is very close to the hospital and the city. We need the police department," said resident Jack Ryan.
Fort Myers mayoral candidate Raimond Aulund gathered 6,000 signatures to get the issue on the ballot. He says it will save taxpayers money.
But a city report release this week says it would cost nearly $1 million more each year if the Fort Myers Police Department closed down.
"I think the report from it's manager's office is probably one of the most disingenuous reports I have seen," said Aulund.
"This is a real threat to our city. The council takes it as such and we are urging everyone to look at the facts and make a judgment on the facts," said City of Fort Myers Randy Mayor.
Local neighborhood watch coordinator Kim Gaide says a Lee County Sheriff's Office take over is a lose-lose situation.
"I don't really see any benefits. It's going to cost a lot more money. Our average times once we call it in is anywhere from three to four minutes response times. I'm afraid, I love the deputies, I love the Sheriff but I'm afraid once they take over if the referendum should go through response times will be six to eight minutes," said Gaide.
One knock at a time, the officers say they are determined to save their jobs.
If the referendum passes, about 170 Fort Myers Police Officers would be out of a job.

PLATTSBURGH — Marlene McCormick was saddened that her senior-citizens Penny Bingo Club folded because it needed to pay for a permit to operate.
After discovering recently that their club at Robert S. Long Apartments must pay a $450 fee to the state, McCormick knew the group would not likely continue.
The club members gathered for one final meeting last month and decided they will no longer get together for weekly bingo.
"It's a sin because that's your only enjoyment when you get old," McCormick said.
While the money for the fee would not have come out of the seniors' pockets, it would have had to be taken from club funding, which is pegged for other activities, such as lunch.
Lee Park, director of communications at the New York State Gaming Commission, said the law would requires that this group pay $18.75 every time it holds penny bingo. Because penny bingo is a game of chance, it must be regulated as accordance with New York law, Park said.
Plattsburgh Housing Authority Executive Director Lori Cantwell said it is her understanding that the club shut down because the rules of compliance were more complex than members wanted to deal with.
It was not so much the cost as the complexity of the laws surrounding bingo that deterred the group from complying further, she said.
The New York State Gaming Commission's website says free bingo is the only kind that can be played without a license.
Bingo can be played in a private home or residential complex. A certified charitable organization, such as a church, can conduct a game of free bingo.
It must be played without cash prizes. However, other items may be offered as prizes, as long as their cost does not exceed $10 each.
Penny bingo is not a game where one can win large sums of money, club member Lucille Wilkins noted. When someone wins, she or he earns pennies, which may go back into the next game or be kept by the players.

Tomorrow night (Saturday, Jan. 5) in Vernal there's an intriguing 180-pound pro match between Ogden's Francisco Alcantara (seen at left, in a past fight versus Val Tinajero, photo by Nick Short/SE) and Vernal's Carl Dieckmann. The latter (6-1) defeated previously unbeaten Shawn Conroy in the the main event on Dec. 7 at a SteelFist card. Alcantara's record is 6-8 but that's deceiving. He lost his first five bouts and then rolled off six wins in seven fights. In his last bout, Alcantara lost a tough bout against Jarome Hatch, 19-16, at Showdown in Orem.
Some big news from Bellator: Top of Utah MMA pro Rad Martinez, who has seen his featherweight Bellator title fight with Shahbulat Shamhalaev postponed twice, will get to fight for it in SLC at The Maverick Center, Feb. 21. The bout will also be live on Spike TV.
On Jan. 12, at the Jeremy Horn card in SLC, Ogden amateurs Miles Welk and Matt Nestico will be fighting. Aaron Sutton, who won at the Total Mayhem card on New Year's Eve in Ogden, will be fighting on an MMA card on Jan. 12 in Idaho Falls. Ogden's Patrick Reeves, who saw his Dec. 31 fight fall through at the last minute, will headline a Total Mayhem card on March 2. He'll meet Jordan Chandler. Finally, SteelFist's Jan. 25 card matches Ogden's Cole Rose against Jared Hatch in the main event.

FOX 8 News received this press release from Louisiana State Police Monday evening:
Vacherie, LA- Shortly after 2 PM [today], a 61 year old Thibodaux man was killed in a head on crash after he attempted to pass another vehicle on LA 3127.
The investigation revealed that a 2010 Pontiac Vibe was traveling north on LA 3127 behind a tractor trailer near the Ascension Parish line. The Vibe was being driven by Jerry Erwin (W/M age 61) of Thibodaux, LA. Erwin entered the southbound lane of LA 3127 and attempted to pass the tractor trailer. A 2000 Freightliner was traveling south on LA 3127 at the same time that Erwin was attempting to pass. The Freightliner was being driven by Arthur Wilson III (B/M age 61) of Plaquemine, LA. In an attempt to avoid the crash, both vehicles traveled onto the southbound shoulder of LA 3127 where they struck head on. Wilson was not injured in the crash. Erwin, who was wearing a seat belt, was transported to Our Lady of the Lake Hospital in Baton Rouge where he later died from his injuries.
Alcohol use is unknown at this time and routine toxicology tests are pending for Erwin. Wilson submitted to a breath test and was cleared of any alcohol involvement. This crash remains under investigation.
Troopers remind motorists to always use caution when passing another vehicle. Never pass another vehicle in an area where there is a solid no passing line indicated on the roadway. While not all crashes are survivable, proper use of seat belts can greatly decrease an occupant's chance of death and may greatly reduce the extent of injury.
Motorists that witness hazardous situations are urged to call *LSP (*577) and report that activity to the Louisiana State Police.

Emotional scenes as Tunisia buries slain opposition leader
Latest update : 2013-02-08
Tens of thousands of Tunisians attended the funeral of murdered opposition leader Chokri Belaid on Friday in a mass outpouring of grief marked by minor clashes as the flag-draped coffin made its way through the streets of Tunis.
- Tens of thousands of Tunisians attended the funeral of murdered opposition leader Chokri Belaid on Friday.
- Minor clashes between the mourners and the police broke out as the outspoken secular politician's coffin was carried through the streets of Tunis.
- Tunisian Prime Minister Hamadi Jebali has reiterated his intention to form a new government of technocrats despite objections from sections of his Islamist Ennahda party.
- Belaid's family and friends have blamed Ennahda for the assassination, a charge the Islamist party denies. At the funeral, there were chants of, "The people want a new revolution," and "Ghannouchi, take your dogs and leave," – the latter aimed at veteran Ennahda leader, Rached Ghannouchi.
- The country came to a virtual standstill after the powerful General Union of Tunisian Workers (UGTT) called a general strike, the first since the 2011 revolution.
- By late Friday, the situation in the capital was under control after police blocked access to the main Avenue Habib Bourguiba following the funeral.

Tuesday, April 13, 2004, 10:35 am PT (01:35 pm ET)
Ala Moana, Twelve Oaks stores top Q2 Apple Retail bonus chartsApple retail stores 'Ala Moana' in Honolulu, Hawaii and 'Twelve Oaks' in Novi, Michigan, ranked atop a list of company stores who met or surpassed their CPU sales goal for the second quarter of fiscal 2004. The two stores surpassed their sales goal by 140% and 147%, respectively.
Stores 'The Westchester' in White Plains, New York, 'Crossgates' in Albany, New York, and 'King of Prussia' in Pennsylvania rounded out the top five. In all, nearly 6 dozen stores met their quotas. Part time employees of these qualifying stores will receive a $500 bonus for the quarter, while full time workers take home an extra grand. Unlike the previous quarter, an iPod sales goal was not in affect.
On average, Apple retail stores achieved a 56% attach rate on sales of AppleCare Protection Plans for the week ending April 3, 2004, sources said. This means that over half of Apple's retail CPU sales are being sold with accompanying extended protection plans. The average attach rate for protection plans sold with iPods was 13%, up approximately 2% from the week before.
"We're creeping towards CompUSA, who is still selling iPod protection plans to about 35% of iPod buyers," Apple store management reportedly told employees last week. The company has reportedly set a goal of achieving an overall 25% attach rate on protection plans sold with iPods at Apple retail locations.
Meanwhile, Apple has updated its job listings with an Assistant Store Manager position for an Apple retail store in the Stonestown mall in San Francisco. This appears to confirm rumors that company would be opening a second San Francisco store at the mall, first reported by AppleInsider in February.
Further additions to the Apple jobs website indicate that at least three other stores are currently in the works. Management positions are being sought for locations listed as 'Santa Rosa-Santa Rosa Place, CA', ' Rockaway-Rockaway, NJ', and 'Bridgewater, NJ.'

This is a guest post by 48 year old Eugene Robinson who penned the following plea for the older fighter for Bloody Elbow:
It was a heart-rending moment, yes, HEART-rending, in all it said and did not say about the state of the post-facto fighter. The camera swung through the crowd for reaction shots after Tito Ortiz's surprise [don't tell us you were NOT surprised] crushing of the now-headruined Ryan Bader [yes...we'd be the first to make the nut-jumping claim that the great Bader has not been the same since Jon Jones put a bug in his head and a beating on his ass], and it landed on an unprepared Chuck Liddell.
Now some might say he was staring down at his iPhone. Or maybe it was his Blackberry. Or even an Android. Though Chuck seems much more like an LG kind of a guy. Wait...where we we? Oh yeah. Chuck sat there staring down. At his feet or his phone it doesn't matter because the look on his face before his face registered that there was a camera in it, was one of unmitigated misery: Tito, a man he could have gotten out of his chair and beaten, was still in a position to beat people, add up the W's, and go back to screwing porn stars. Make that "star."
Anyways, it was terrible to watch, in the few seconds you could see it: a man staring into the depths of his soul when the only thing he's wanted to do has been yanked out from under him forever and ever. Of course he recovered nicely and smiled and waved while he crushed his phone into dust with hands that wanted nothing more to do than fling him over the cage and start beating Tito death, but WE knew what was going on: "how is it possible that I beat that guy TWICE and he's still fighting while I have to sit here next to Bubblehead." Or some such thing.
And in the hubbub and Tito pulling down a replacement slot against Rashad Evans in an upcoming UFC, all may have been forgotten. By most. But not all: Having recently interviewed Gary Goodridge and Jeff Monson on my radio show and trained with early UFC fighter and Olympic gold medalist Mark Schultz, I know better than most that snow on the roof belies a fire in the furnace. Whatever the hell that means.
The point though is there's no reason for fighters of a certain age to be retired unless they're UNDER-performing and don't tell me someone like Chuck is under-performing when you can't even say with a straight face that he sucks more than Tito. Sure. I hear you thinking: "do we really need more fights like Matt Hughes versus RoyceGracie?" Who says that fight sucked because they were OLD? Not me. That fight was at least as interesting as any Michael Bisping fight. Which is not saying much but whatever.
So Tito was decisioned on his way to several losses and Chuck was KTFO on his way to his and one looks worse than the other because there's concern about fighter safety? Ok. Fine. So it is just how a fighter loses that makes the difference? Well, the game changes and those who can't keep up get left behind but there still is a place for fighters from different epochs and that's in an age bracket where they can still shine.
Golf has a Seniors division, why not MMA?
Like Jack Nicklaus, even if he's dead now, could beat you and me over 18 holes, so could Don Frye, no matter what Johnny Depp movie he's appearing in this week. Of course fighters would resist fighting in the Senior, or Classics, League making the claim that they want to fight the best of the best but if the choice is that or a seat cageside where you have to look happy that a guy you know you can beat is still winning, well which do you think they would choose? Besides which no one fights with more intensity than the bull that's about to be shuffled on out of the herd.
So here's our simple formula for continued UFC dominance: old fighters, who are not bums, fighting.
You can thank me later.
Eugene S. Robinson's resume runs from writing for GQ, Hustler, PC Gamer, Revolver, Decibel...etc to authoring FIGHT: everything you wanted to know about ass kicking but were afraid you'd get your ass kicked for asking, to his MMA radio show on www.combatmusicradio.com/knuckleup and fronting the band Oxbow, all while finding time to still train and compete.

For years, the Oglala Sioux Tribe has struggled to maintain housing conditions. Now a new effort will draw national attention to the sub standard housing.
Broken windows, vandalism and disrepair aren't the only problems facing Indian country. There's a serious lack of housing on the pine ridge reservation.
"We've got young families that are just starting and they don't have homes to go. I have people coming into my office with three, four little kids and they have no place to go," said Paul Iron Cloud, Oglala Sioux Housing Chief Executive Officer.
In some cases, three or four families are living in the same house. Oglala Sioux Tribal Chairman, Bryan Brewer, says this affects education and can lead to a slew of other problems.
"With poverty it breeds a lot of bad things–drugs, alcoholism, abuse," said Brewer.
Those problems are in addition to an 89 percent unemployment rate and a growing population. "Our population is going up, our life expectancy is going up, so there's more need for housing and it's just not happening," said Brewer.
Brewer says the government is partially to blame by not following treaty rights.
"One of the things that it says in the treaty is that we will have housing, education, law enforcement, things like that," said Brewer.
So, if Washington won't come to the reservation, the tribe will take the reservation to Capitol Hill. Lakota Housing, the OST Partnership for Housing, and other organizations are hoping to shine a national spotlight on the home, an example of the poor living conditions on the reservation.
"We're trying to make them aware of our need and the treaty obligations that congress has with Indian people," said Iron Cloud.
The hope is to establish a "Trail of Hope" for Indian housing.
The "Trail of Hope" project leaves from Kyle, South Dakota to D.C. on April 13th. The house will be in front of the Capitol. They have permission to be there for one day, which is April 17th.

It's not music I would enjoy, but it is music. There's obviously musical instruments involved or else they'd be standing there rapping in silence. The lyrics are all the same (and meaningless) and the styles are barely fresh, which is why I prefer Hip-Hop over Rap.
Other than that, the fog of stupidity must be spreading like wildfire around here.

JANESVILLE (WKOW) -- Before Gov. Scott Walker's revised repair law takes effect next week, many teachers unions and school districts are working together to revise their bargaining agreements, including the Janesville School District.
After about two and a half hours of negotiations Tuesday, the board voted to suggest the unions modify their contracts with teachers, custodial, and clerical staff.
The board asked for concessions because of a $3 million cut in aid.
School board president Bill Sodemann says the teachers currently have contracts through 2013.
On Tuesday night, the board agreed on suggesting teachers start paying 5.8 percent of their pension, which is in the governor's budget repair law.
The average Janesville teacher makes $50,000 a year. The extra pension contribution would cost each teacher about $2,900.
"It's people taking a cut or more layoffs and we think we found a way so unions don't feel caught before the bill becomes law," said Sodemann.
Sodemann says they will have the revised plan for each of the unions by Wednesday morning, where they can then vote on it. The unions will vote on this, according to their time frame. Each union will need a majority vote to pass the revised agreement.
He says the alternative could be much worse. If they don't come to an agreement, the district would have had to cut at least 100 positions.
Sodemann says the total deficit the Janesville School District is facing is about $13.4 million deficit if the teachers agree to the proposed changes it would save many jobs.

Why do the centripetal and gravitational force equal each other in orbit?Also...
by MakeItThrough
Tags: circular, friction, gravitation, motion, uniform
|Share this thread:
Oct19-11, 07:32 PM
1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
Say for example, a problem wants us to find the mass of a planet. It gives us a satellite that orbits that planet with a radius of R and a period T. Now, I know how to solve this problem. You must set Fc = Fg.
But what I do not know is why the centripetal and gravitational force of these two objects must equal each other.
Also, a similar problem to that is one like this:
When you take your 1200 kg car out for a spin, you go around a corner of radius 57.6 m with a speed of 15.2 m/s. The coefficient of static friction between the car and the road is 0.84. Assuming your car doesn't skid, what is the force exerted on it by static friction?
Again, I already know how to solve this. You must set Fc = Ff ... mv^2 / r = Ff, and then you just plug in the given values into the mv^2 / r and that is your answer.
I do not know why in this case the centripetal force and the static friction must equal each other.
If someone could please explain this to me, I would feel so much better while taking the test tomorrow... My teacher goes through this stuff extremely fast.
2. Relevant equations
V = 2piR / T
Fc = mv^2 / r
Fg = Gm1m2 / r^2
Oct19-11, 07:48 PM
Newtons second law, sum of forces equals mass times acceleration. The force you have is gravity, and the acceleration is centripetal acceleration.
Oct19-11, 08:46 PM
HW Helper
The gravitational force is the ONLY force acting on the Satellite.
The Centripetal force is the force we would need to have if the satellite is to travel in a circular path.
The satellite DOES travel in a circular path, so the Graitaional force existing happily equals the centripetal force we need.
Gravtational force is a real force.
Centripetal force is a desired/necessary force.
Another example:
Why CAN'T you ride a motorbike in a circle of radius 10m at 150 km/h on flat ground?
Simple, you could calculate the centripetal force NEEDED for that to happen, but when you add up [as vectors] all the forces acting - gravity, reaction force, friction,... They just don't add up to the necessary force, so the situation just can't happen.
In the case of a satellite, the available force [gravity] happens to provide the required force, so its circular motion is maintained.
EDIT: Oh, and in the case of the car - it must have been on flat ground also. Most roads have a small degree of banking so that would have contributed, and if the banking was steep enough - like at a velodrome - you mightn't need friction at all.

The Bedford County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved leasing the four cottages of the former Group Home on Falling Creek Road to Lutheran Family Services.
The non-profit organization will lease the buildings for a total of $120,000 per year. The Group Home closed in January, 2013 after a fall in court ordered residential placements under the Comprehensive Youth Services Act due to a change in state philosophy on how to handle these situations.
In an effort to cut $4.8 million from its proposed budget, the Bedford County School Board is looking at cutting 46 teaching and administrative positions this year, in just one cost-savings measure being considered.
The board discussed the revised budget numbers Thursday night and also approved, as part of that cost-savings, its healthcare insurance premiums for the year. Premiums to school employees will go up; so will deductibles.
The Bedford Area Chamber of Commerce's annual Legislative Wrap Up breakfast wasn't exactly a wrap up. Although the Bedford area's General Assembly delegation was able to report on a number of finished pieces of legislation, Virginia still remains without a budget.
Bedford County's supervisors have set up a new recreation advisory board, approving it at their last meeting in April.
According to Wyatt Woody, the county's parks and recreation director, Bedford County at one time had a recreation commission, which actually made policy decisions and dealt directly with staff. This commission was disbanded in 2004. Later, Michael Stokes, Woody's predecessor as parks an recreation director, set up and advisory board, but could never get a quorum for meetings.
The best comment at the Bedford County School Board meeting Thursday night just might have come from Thomas Messier, a student at Bedford Middle School.
Messier, a member of this year's Student Advisory Council, speaking about the need for improvements at Liberty High School, noted that LHS was celebrating its 50th anniversary this year of being open, adding "so is its gym."
Jefferson Forest High School English teacher Debra Woodson has been named Bedford County's Teacher of the Year.
Woodson was selected from a group of three finalists that also included Eric Martin, physical education teacher at Stewartsville Elementary and Sandra Brookshier, life science teacher at Bedford Middle School. Those three were selected from the Teachers of the Year that had been named at each school.
Tommy Harper has a family car that has won numerous awards, including national awards in car shows. It even made an appearance in the February, 2014 edition of Automobile Magazine.
An armed man robbed the Spirit Market in Bedford Monday night and police continue to look for the suspect.
From the young to the elderly, the Bedford Area Family YMCA is helping area residents embrace healthier lifestyles. The hidden secret is the local Y is much, much more than a gymnasium—in who it touches, in what it offers to the community—it's a cause.
And May 14, the Y kicks off its campaign to raise funds so it can provide services to those who otherwise couldn't afford them.
The Y—So Much More
Several hundred acres of Bedford County farmland is safe from development, thanks to action by Linwood and Pam Willoughby and two of their children.
The Willoughbys own 350 acres in the Chamblissburg area and their daughter, Holly Willoughby, owns 205 adjoining acres. Another daughter, Rhonda Nunley, and her husband, Tom Nunley, own an additional 233 acres, separated from the others by a 600-foot wide strip of land. They all have put their land under a conservation easement with the Blue Ridge Land Conservancy.

The Cyprus Electricity Regulatory Authority (CERA) chairman Giorgos Siammas has said that electricity prices were reduced by 17.5% for the average household last year.
Speaking to the press on Friday after presenting CERA's annual report for 2012 to President Nicos Anastasiades, Siammas said they discussed matters relating to the purchase of electricity, natural gas and renewable sources of energy.
He added that managing the energy crisis during the last two years was one of the matters for which the President was briefed.
According to Siammas, the results of CERA's crisis management plan were evident during 2013 as the regulatory authority was able to take necessary decisions in due time, which affected electricity prices positively.
There was a significant reduction in the price of electricity, he said, pointing out that this is due to a great extent on the decisions taken by the authority and also the reduction of fuel prices.
"This reduction comes to 17.5% for an average household consumer", he noted, adding that for others it may be even greater.
Replying to a question as to whether there will be further reductions in 2014, Siammas said that if there is anything to announce it will be announced in due time, while fuel reductions are calculated automatically.

If one thing is clear, it's that the Bengals run game is light years behind where it was a year ago. Last year in only 13 games, the guy we nicknamed Ced The Pred racked up 1251 yards on 301 carries, with a 4.2 yards per carry average. This year, through 14 games, he has only managed 1006 yards, on 276 carries for a 3.6 yards per carry average. This is not exactly a glowing endorsement for signing him to a new deal.
However, here are a few reasons why I think the Bengals should consider keeping him next year.
Resigning Benson could provide some stability: As we all know, RB is only one of many areas that the Bengals are going to have to look at in the offseason. They have a lot of holes that need to be filled and contracts that need to be addressed including OG, WR, FS and SS, QB??, DT, DE, and CB. Signing Benson can provide stability in what is otherwise going to be an unstable year.
This doesn't seem to be a RB rich draft class: Usually when people write things like this, they have to eat crow afterward, but as of right now, there isn't a RB projected to go in the top 15 except for maybe Mark Ingram. In fact, the few mock drafts that I've looked at have him projected as the ONLY running back drafted in the first round.
Benson is just a badass: Ok, the homer in me just likes the guy. He runs hard, appreciates the game, and plays with heart. And also, this team seems to win ball games when they give him the ball.
There aren't many FA running backs that you could sign for less than Benson: The biggest name out there is DeAngelo Williams, but he is probably looking for a big contract. Ahmad Bradshaw is also going to be a FA, but will command a healthy pay check next year. Michael Bush of Oakland would be one possibility, but it remains to be seen if he would be an improvement over Benson. The fact is that Free Agency is always a crap shoot, and Benson will probably be as cheap, if not cheaper than all of those players.
By not drafting a RB (particularly in the first three rounds), the team is freed up to address other positions of need: With all of the holes that this team has (as mentioned above), the Bengals are going to seriously consider what their top priorities are. In my opinion their biggest areas of need are Safety, OG, and WR. You could also make an argument for DE or DT as well. However, given that there 4 of the top 10 rushers this year were guys picked outside the top 3 rounds (Foster, UFA; Turner, 5th; Bradshaw, 7th; Hillis, 7th), it doesn't seem logical to spend a high draft pick on a RB.
There it is - an argument for resigning Benson. What do you all think?

With The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil set to debut on March 25, the UFC is trying to create some anticipation by releasing preview videos. The latest came out Sunday featuring one of the coaches, Wanderlei Silva.
The short clip opens with Silva and UFC Heavyweight Champion Junior dos Santos saying hi and signing autographs for fans at an outdoor press event. One of the fans asks Silva, "When are you going to kill Chael Sonnen?" and he replies, "Soon."
Silva then shows up at Rio's X-Gym, giving some words of encouragement to a group of fighters that includes former Strikeforce Middleweight Champion Ronaldo Souza and former Strikeforce Light Heavyweight Champion Rafael Cavalcante. Silva will coach against Vitor Belfort on the first ever TUF to record outside the U.S., expected to lead the way for future international TUFs. The two will coach featherweights and middleweights.
Stateside, TUF Brazil will air on UFC.com and on Globo in Brazil. Belfort vs. Silva and the finals of the competitions will air during a summer PPV in Brazil, the same expected to be headlined by Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva vs. Chael Sonnen II.

Rockbridge Co., VA - The National Park Service has responded to a request from Congressman Bob Goodlatte and says it will study the possibility of turning Natural Bridge into a national park.
Earlier this week, Goodlatte suggested private funds be used and that a conservation easement be placed on adjoining property to protect it.
There's no word on when the study would begin or how long it will take.

UPDATE: The announcement is that Coachella is turning into Boatchella for two cruises in December.
The ever-cryptic Goldenvoice has posted a photo on the Coachella Facebook and Twitter pages that we can look for an announcement Tuesday, July 17 at 6 p.m. Pacific.
With all of the festival location drama that's been going on, my guess is that we'll find out if the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and the Stagecoach Country Music Festival will stay put at the Empire Polo Club in Indio for 2014 or if a new location is in the cards.
Or maybe it's just that hologram John Lennon will be the Coachella 2013 headliner.
What do you think the announcement will be?

Professor Drakulich received his Ph.D. in Sociology from the University of Washington, where he concentrated on a broad view of sociological criminology and deviance, as well as methodology through his association with the Center for Statistics and the Social Sciences.
His recent work focuses on three interrelated lines of research on questions related to race, ethnicity, inequality, and crime. The first examines social processes related to crime and its consequences across space—and in particular across neighborhoods or communities. A second line of research builds off the first by asking how people view crime, disorder, and social control processes within their community. Finally, a third line of research follows this line of thought beyond neighborhoods, examining how people view crime, control, and related policies more broadly.

Whats with Commodore?
Many thought, including myself, that Commodore would get another shot in the lineup after the poor performance by every D man last game against the Nashville Predators. Russell was the one that stood out to me and to many after playing poorly. But low and behold I see today that he will not be in the lineup once again tonight against the Coyotes. So whats the deal? Is there a trade in the works to get rid of Commodore? Is he injured? Is he having trouble in the room? Or is he just that much worst than our other defensemen. Thoughts?
Commodore did return to twitter today with some interesting posts;
"Got some free time on my hands these days so I might as well catch up on twitter. Haven't even logged on in forever. What's up!"
"For all of u asking about lineup issues I would rather not comment. I would love to speak my mind, but now is not the time. Sorry"
"But I appreciate the positive messages and concern...I am fine and am in as good as spirits as possible. Thank u!"
So he is definately healthy, so what is wrong?
P.S I have never tried a fanpost, so i figured I would try it out. Sorry if it does not flow as well.

Title: "President Clinton Welcomes US-DPRK Agreement." White House statement of June 13, 1995 on the agreement between the US and North Korea that keeps North Korea's nuclear facilities frozen. (950619)
Date: 19950619
US DEPARTMENT OF STATE DISPATCH PUBLISHED BY THE BUREAU OF PUBLIC AFFAIRS VOLUME 6, NUMBER 25, JUNE 19, 1995 President Clinton Welcomes U.S.-D.P.R.K. Agreement Statement released by the White House, Office of the Press Secretary, Washington, DC, June 13, 1995.
I welcome the agreement reached between the United States and the Democratic Peoples' Republic of Korea in Kuala Lumpur on key issues related to implementation of the U.S.-D.P.R.K. Agreed Framework. Achieved through close consultation with our friends and allies in the Republic of Korea and Japan, the agreement keeps North Korea's dangerous nuclear facilities frozen and confirms that the Korean Peninsula Energy Development Organization--KEDO--will select the reactor model and prime contractor for the light-water reactor project. At the same time, KEDO has confirmed that both the reactor model and prime contractor will be South Korean.
In addressing these and other issues, today's understandings are an important step on the road toward full implementation of the U.S.-D.P.R.K. Agreed Framework, which provides the international community with assurance against a North Korean nuclear threat and North Korea with opportunity to rejoin the community of nations. We also continue to believe that the resumption of North-South dialogue is essential not only to the full implementation of the Agreed Framework, but also to the continuing effort to build lasting prosperity and a stable peace on the Korean Peninsula.

What you see is what you get.
Moments after the Georgia Southern Eagles defeated The Citadel 13-6 in the Eagles' final football game of the season Saturday at Paulson Stadium, head coach Chris Hatcher was told his contract would not be renewed.
So with the first week of prep football in the books, what did we learn?
PHILADELPHIA - Cliff Lee finally got hit hard.
PHILADELPHIA - Cliff Lee finally got hit hard.
Hear that?
The anticipation of a feasibility study to determine the steps Georgia Southern needs to take to move its football program to the Football Bowl Subdivision - the highest level of NCAA football - has been building since the consulting firm of Rosser International, Inc., McGee-Geiger and CSL International began the process back in June of 2008.
Well folks, it finally came to pass.
Click below for full story:
Second chances don't come along too often.
Former Georgia Southern basketball player Charlton Young will leave his position as assistant basketball coach at Georgia Tech to become the new head coach at GSU, according to multiple sources, effective at an 11 a.m. press conference this morning.
Friday, Georgia Southern released its 2009 football schedule, which is highlighted by five home games and a road matchup with the Atlantic Coast Conference's North Carolina Tar Heels on Saturday, Oct. 10 in Chapel Hill, N.C.
Trailing 18-16 with less than 20 seconds left in the game, William James Middle School had one last chance at the Coastal Empire Region Championship.
BROOKLET - The Southeast Bulloch Yellow Jackets (1-0) sent a message to the rest of Region 3-AA on Friday night in Eastman against the Dodge County Indians. With a 25-20 win on the road against DCHS - one of eight teams in the region that was in the playoffs a year ago - the Jackets let everyone know that on this schedule, there's no such thing as a 'week off.'
ATHENS – So, you thought Georgia Southern had a chance for the upset. Realistically, the Eagles weren't supposed to have a prayer against the No. 1 Bulldogs and in reality, when the two teams took the field, they didn't.
As Brian VanGorder learned in 2006 during his year as Georgia Southern's head coach - Eagle Nation doesn't like its traditions messed with.

Edwin Jackson, Georgia Southern's leading tackler in 2013, was named preseason second-team, All-Sun Belt and its a good thing, because he's really the only linebacker in the mix that played a lot of football last year.

How To Use Google Earth To Plan An Amazing Vacation
Planning that incredible vacation can be quite risky if you do not know where you are going. Sure, it is easy to book a vacation to one of your favorite hot spots, but it is a whole new adventure to plan a new vacation. In fact, I am sure that there are some people who have gone through the planning process without a travel agent and ended up with a disastrous trip instead of a getaway.
All of that can now be avoided thanks to the advancement within Google Earth. You do not need to go out and pay a travel agent a fortune in order to pay for your own vacation. Nor do you have to worry about the location or what you may be doing while you are at your destination. Google has you covered. You do not need a fancy GPS attachment for your computer; rather, all you need is an internet connection and the Google Earth software (which is free).
Using the advancements of technology, you can see aerial photographs of the area, while many of those pictures are available in 3D. We are not talking about the major cities, but most areas spread across the entire globe. I am sorry but if you were planning a trip to the South Pole you may not be able to book your vacation, but anything above that you are likely to be in good hands thanks to Google.
Where are you going?
The first step in planning your amazing vacation is to decide on where it is you want to travel to. There are many different destinations to suit everyone's budget and style of escape, and you should narrow it down to a few different locations. From there, you can search the locations in the Google Earth's browser, giving you an aerial view of the surrounding area. You can zoom out to check for nearby towns and cities, or zoom in far enough to witness the streets from your computer at home.
Once you have finally picked out your escape, it is time to pick out your hotel. By using the Google Earth browser you can see where your hotel is in relation to attractions as well as other hotels. Simply click on the hotel on the map, and the contact information will pop-up as well as reviews for that specific hotel.
A good vacation is only as good as the sights you see while you are there. For some, the tropical escape keeps the itinerary wide open to relax on the illustrious beaches. For those who are looking for more thrill and adventure, Google Earth can help you plan out these as well. Just as the hotels can be searched with pop ups, many of the businesses also have reviews.
Looking to plan this trip with others? Use the place mark tool to bookmark your favorite ideas to share with others later.
Finalizing the Itinerary
You have browsed through Google Earth and have picked out your getaway, the hotel(s) you wish to stay at and some of the activities you want to accomplish while you are there. Now you can further check into those activities, especially if they are surrounded by hiking and outdoor treats. Google has a Panoramio application that holds just as many tricks as Google Earth.
This allows the users to tap into the panoramio photo community, which is used to access area specific photos. The photos are uploaded by users and are geographically tagged within Google Earth. You can see what to expect, and where some of the hidden treasures may lie. You can zoom in through different areas and more images will show up with what that location looks like. There are many people that want to save the sights and spectacular views to be witness first hand, which is a respectable decision that Google has taken into consideration.
You can remove the images but still see that there is something at that location worth seeing. If you see a few different images within a small location, chances are there is something there worth checking out.
Now everything is planned out, and you know exactly what you are doing and when you are going to do it. So Google Earth is all finished correct? Truth be told, Google Earth has only just begun to show you the marvels of your trip. You can map out your travel from the airport to your hotel just as you would with MapQuest or Google Maps.
The added bonus is that Google Earth will actually take you through a tour, a drive-thru if you will, of the travel. You will actually be "driving" from point A to point B at street level, showing you the twists and turns. If you see an interesting shop, an attraction you may have missed, or a phenomenal restaurant, you can pause the "drive" at any time.
Arriving at your Destination
All of the research and worry is finally behind you, and you have landed at your destination. It is always an incredible feeling when you finally reach your destination. You have planned out your days and are looking to an incredible vacation. Be sure to talk to locals and natives (depending on your destination) as many will be happy to share some of the less known beauties that surround them.
Use that information and look them up through Google Earth and add a few more activities to your daily schedules. One of the best is for restaurants. Reading reviews about different cuisines is always difficult to get the full "scoop" on the restaurants. Chances are locals have eaten there numerous times and can point you to the best choices for different authentic cuisines.
Another handy add-on to Google Earth is the weather app that is stored within. Sure, local weather will show you the weather for the area, but how about for hiking or for sea travel. As all of you are aware, it gets colder as you start hiking or venturing out. You do not want to bring excessive clothing to carry around with you, but at the same time you also do not want to be unprepared. The Google Earth weather will give you real weather temperatures at the top of mountains or on the beaches, so you know what the weather will be like at each different journey.

Avoid Fashion Week Wardrobe Panic With Eryn Brinié-------
The timing of Eryn brinié's opening in Soho couldn't be better—with fashion week right around the corner, we're on the lookout for cute clothes that won't break the bank, and that we won't see everywhere. The Korea-based company's wares, which have a devoted following in Asia, certainly fit the bill on both counts: The entire collection costs under $200, and as the Broadway store is the company's first U.S. outpost, the line mercifully lacks the ubiquity of its low-cost competitors. The space (designed by STUDIOS architects) is sculpted, bright, and airy, and there are plans to host exhibits of local and emerging artists and photographers alongside the collection's bohemian threads. Eryn brinié, 501 Broadway, (212) 308-6134.
