He really likes Bumgarner!
10. LHP Madison Bumgarner, Giants
Oh my goodness, I really like this kid too. Good arm action, very good tempo. Don't be fooled. He looks really smooth, but this kid is aggressive, which I really like. I may disagree with other scouts about changing his arm slot. I say leave his arm slot where it is. As you can probably tell, I like athletic pitchers, and he certainly fits the mold.
He again drifts and leads with his hips into a nice long stride, but his finish is a little on the abrupt side. A couple of things that I would do with Bumgarner: Teach him how to finish his pitches better (upper body lean, long arm deceleration a la Price) and scrap the curve and go with a slurve/slider-type pitch that starts on the same plane as his fastball. He could also speed his body up just a tad. Here's a short clip of Bumgarner's athletic move forward:
I really like this pick at No. 10. As of right now, Price and Parker are Nos. 1 and #2, and Bumgarner is probably my No. 3.

Usain Bolt speeds up charity auction
The world's fastest man Usain Bolt proved to have hidden skills as an auctioneer at a charity event for Mo Farah's foundation last night. The six-time Olympic gold medallist took over the microphone when a pair of his running shoes were being auctioned off. The winning bid was £36,000.

By Kevin Henkin
Okay, we're live from Providence to cover the second game of the preseason and, again, we're pretending that the game is meaningful (see previous article) to add some spice to things. Onto the game summary:
Before the game. Leon Powe is given a microphone and addresses the crowd for about 8 seconds, most of it unintelligible. It's not exactly the stuff of "I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth…" but in Leon's defense, he was a social welfare rather than a fancypants public speaking major in college.
The Dunkin Donuts Center in Providence, the venue of the game, has just recently reopened after extensive renovations. Of note, the huge new scoreboard hangs precariously low over the center of the floor. This might not be much of a factor for the Providence Bruins but for basketball, it doesn't make much sense (My point is later driven home at the end of the first quarter when one of the Celtics heaves a desperation shot as time runs out and it clangs off the bottom of the scoreboard).
First Quarter
I love the first six minutes of preseason games because they closely approximate regular season games. All the starters are in and, because they know they won't be seeing too many minutes in the game, they play hard. After that, though, all bets are off. For example, it was fun to watch Tom Thibodeau managing the end of the first pre-season game with a Vince Lombardi face while he had guys like Gabe Pruitt and Tony Allen running the crunch time offense. I'm sorry but, as much as I appreciate the effort by the coach, it's sort of like taking break dancing lessons before your wedding. In other words, why bother?
Garnett does a touch pass behind the back to a driving Rajon Rondo, which is just about as sweet a move as you'll ever see on a hardwood floor. KG says "NO, MOTHER&^%$#!!!" to preseason rust.
Apparently Joey Crawford hates Rajon Rondo, considering he sneezes into his whistle every time Rondo makes physical contact with an opposing player. I wonder if Rondo made the grave error of laughing in the presence of Crawford. Bad career move, podna.
Darius Miles in the game at 2:30. Launches 19 foot airball at 1:49. I still like the cut of his jib, though. He positively exudes those "I've finally grown up, gotten religion and now just want to win" vibes.
J.R. Giddens is a confirmed headband guy. Not that getting sweaty has been much of an issue for the rookie as of yet.
Second Quarter
Alright, I'll say it. Tony Allen is BACK. The swagger is back. So is the aggression and the fearlessness of throwing his body into the play. It's acknowledged that Tony Allen is no James Posey but he'll at least help in filling those big empty Big Game James Posey shoes with a return to pre-injury form.
You honestly had to see this play to believe it: Bill Walker sneaks in for a Brian Scalabrine miss coming off the rim, stuffs it down with thunderous authority, hollers at the nearby Celtics bench and then proceeds to push LeBron James out of his way as he trots back up the court. This kid is about a mile away from a wide eyed doe rookie. It's hilarious to watch, as long as he keeps playing well.
A rare J.R. Giddens appearance at the 4:37 mark! Because why would you want to use precious preseason minutes to assess your top draft choice? (Yes, I know, because they're using those minutes to round Tony Allen back into form). Giddens airmails his first shot and looks forlorn on the other end of the court. A couple of plays later, he passes on an open look with the shot clock winding down. I think Giddens needs to borrow some confidence from Bill Walker.
Third Quarter
Cavaliers Coach Mike Brown is too far away, so I can't tell if he's wearing eye-glass frames that match his jacket and shoes. But I'm sure they do. Somewhere, Red Auerbach snickers.
Glen Davis almost puts Cavaliers point guard Mo Williams in a body cast after he crashes into him running a play on offense but when the whistle blows for a foul, he looks around as innocent as a kitten. Ah yes, gone are the rookie days and their rookie ways. Doc Rivers isn't impressed, though. His expression is that of a man whose puppy has just messed on the new rug.
This needs to be mentioned. The Celtics bench has been deeply invested during the whole game. It may only be preseason but it seems to me that they are treating each of these contests as a valuable means to an end: As a live-action team building exercise. As a way to build chemistry with the new players. As a way to get better each game by facing real completion, even though these particular games don't count. It seems obvious to say "Well, duh, that's how it should be", but it has not always been that way around here before last year and it certainly isn't that way everywhere else around the NBA. Exhibit A: The New York Knicks.
Tony Allen sees an opening to shoot a 20 footer and drains it. He now has 19 points. Did I mention Tony Allen is back? Preseason or no, TA has clearly gotten his groove back.
Fourth Quarter
Glen Davis's evening is over. His line: 6 points, 0 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 turnovers and 6 fouls in 16 minutes. His right knee is wrapped in ice. Of note, both of Paul Pierce's knees are also wrapped in ice after 9 and half minutes of play.
Tony Allen just swished a 3. Not to belabor the point but last season, a swished 3 by Tony Allen was about as common as a sasquatch sighting or a good Dan Shaughnessy column.
Gabe Pruitt just took it end-to-end, weaved through the Cleveland defense and stuffed it down their throats. Nice work by the fourth string PG!
Doc Rivers rides a lineup of Giddens, Scalabrine, O'Bryant, TA and Pruitt throughout most of the fourth, then sends in Walker and Powe for Scalabrine and Giddens, down by one with about 2 minutes to go. Clearly, he's going for the V without doing something so blatant and unnecessary as using his starters.
Boston pulls it out when Leon Powe corrals a rebound on the defensive end, draws an over the back foul with Cleveland in the penalty and sinks the freebies. Yay! Boston's backups can beat Cleveland's backups! The crowd files out in a hurry to catch the rest of the Sox Game 1 of the ALCS. Alas, it appears that the title defense campaign is back on track.

Starting her second State of the City address with some fun, Las Vegas' 20th mayor, Carolyn Goodman brought out a cooking timer.
"Now know it's a minute timer, so I'm not going to let you see what I set it for. But I understand there's an over and under going on here," Goodman told a crowd of about a hundred who gathered inside the City Council Chambers.
In the end the mayor spoke for about an hour, covering accomplishments from her first year in office.
"We are in rebound here in Las Vegas, believe it or not," Goodman said during her speech Thursday night.
Most of those accomplishments were located in Downtown Las Vegas.
The mayor pointed to the opening of the Mob and Neon museums, and the continued growth of business on Fremont East.
But she also looked forward to 2013's expansion of businesses inside Neonopolis, opening the Downtown Grand Hotel and told reporters after her address that the building of a downtown arena is still on the table.
"I have referred twice people that I know belong to groups that are credible that could do the building of the arena," Goodman said.
But it wasn't all good news.
Mayor Goodman also issued a warning about possible reductions in federal funding.
"We know about taxation, but we don't know what's going to happen as they pay down the trillions," Goodman said in her speech.
Meanwhile the mayor said the city is seeking to avoid unnecessary duplication of services.
Still the mayor says jobs won't come until education is improved; she sent a strong message to law makers in Carson City.
"(The fact that) we have not become a major research center at our university level is to me... It can't be a great city and a great state until we fix that," Goodman told reporters after her address.

The Top 24 contestants have been announced for "American Idol," and Season 9 appears as if it will be one of the more competitive years we've seen in a while. There were at least three or four strong singers who didn't even make the cut, which is a good indication of the level of talent we're dealing with. Here's a list of the 12 girls and 12 boys who made it:
Didi Benami, 23 - Hollywood, CA
Crystal Bowersox, 24 - Elliston, OH
Lacey Brown, 24 - Amarillo, TX
Michelle Delamor, 22 - Miami, FL
Katelyn Epperly, 19 - Des Moines, IA
Siobhan Magnus, 19 - Cape Cod, MA
Paige Miles, 24 - Cypress, TX
Ashley Rodriguez, 22 - Boston, MA
Lilly Scott, 20 - Littleton, CO

Jermaine Sellers, 26 - Joliet, IL
Tim Urban, 20 - Duncanville, TX
Among those not named to the Top 24 was Thaddeus Johnson, who was so overcome with emotion from his elimination that he needed a moment to collect himself. In a stall in the men's restroom. With his mother.
Are you happy with this year's finalists? Has a favorite emerged for you? I know a lot can change, but Crystal Bowersox is my personal frontrunner. What do you think? Comment below!

Quite light-weight, material is incredibly resilient, style and design just isn't great but excellent. Functions effectively with shoulder straps or carried with manage(s). My only problem is several of the fittings are plastic and may possibly not final, very well see. Liked it adequate to purchase a 2nd one particular. Holds a lot more than precisely the same dimension bag with wheels. General a fantastic worth for any Accurate carry-on bag.I wish this bag had been about an inch to inch and a half wider, then I could slip my e-reader into the rear slip pocket . One more inch deeper can be wonderful. Once you put a datebook and checkbook into the main pocket and the within slip pocket, respectively anything you place inside the outside pockets genuinely can make the bag pooch-out .
I've a low back problem and it just helps make it a lot much easier to become in a position to sling this bag right above and accross the body for handling. I'd surely invest in one more a single when mine is due to retire!I've the Downloader backpack in Eggplant colour for my Inspiron e1405 (extended battery). The colour is certainly just ideal for any female. I've gotten numerous compliment regarding it currently. I such as the match of your laptop and i feel there's ample area for anything I require. The only point I want for is during the most outer pocket there need to be a little bit a lot more sectioning .It really is a fantastic bag with tons of room and organizational pockets. I just want there had been additional color choices. A black a single would have been great.I travel 150+ nights per yr, often two weeks at a time.
Very advocate for ease of use and a lot wanted organization in our packing!It is a terrific bag with tons of room and organizational pockets. I just want there had been additional color choices. A black 1 would have been wonderful.Final time I visited my brother there was nowhere to unpack my items so I needed to reside from my suitcase and, even tho it was packed nicely, I needed to rifle thru it just about every time I needed one thing in it. This time, I've the cubes and it took me all of three minutes to unpack and also have my points organized. Enjoy, adore, adore these!Enjoy the bike culture seem on the bag, the dimension and also the sturdiness of development.


text: Gwar sounds like they returned to their old selves on this album. they also did the right thing and re-signed to Metal Blade. like Beyond Hell, which is an album about their journey to Hell, the new album "Lust In Space" is also a concept album about the band going to outer space to fight Cardinal Syn, who appeared on "Ragnarok". I haven't heard any slow songs on this CD yet. the songs sound like they are on hyperspeed. also, their front cover is somewhat reminiscent of "Love Gun" by KISS. the solos on this release are out of this world. if you are a Gwar fan, or Gwar listener you owe it to yourself to get this release.

There s only two things stopping you - fear and common sense!! The Truth you CAN"T HANDLE THE TRUTH!!!!!!!!
I'll say it again, the Mannion kid at Oregon State has a great arm, and has gotten miraculous wins when the team stunk up the field for half the game. Here is a write up on the loss to Stanford, but I think the writer might not have considered the fact that the coaches did not want to challenge Stanford with the long ball, and Mannion didn't have a say.
NFL Draft Notes -- Oregon State's Sean Mannion fails to deliver - CBSSports.com
What impressed me the most was in the 3 games I have seen him in, he was on the money in the fourth quarter when the game was on the line. He was GOLD.
Do I want the Vikings to get him NOW...no, probably not. But right now, we are just discussing possibilities, right?Men are moved by two levers only: fear and self interest.

Oh god no, not future NFL bust Manziel. The dude panics, takes off too early, holds the ball out like a loaf of bread, and when he does throw, he just throws it up for grabs and Evans usually wins the jump ball. That backyard clown show isn't going to work vs NFL defenses. If anything we need to draft that Evans kid, he catches anything thrown in his vicinity. I'd rather see us draft AJ McCarron, he looks like a solid pocket passer.
How about Brett Hundley? To me, he sounds like he may be the most NFL-ready QB of the bunch. I think we should consider him, as it sounds like he could be most ready from Day 1 of the 2014 season. Thoughts, anyone?

Bridgewater is the most NFL ready QB this year, after that i think its guys like Aaron Murray and Zach Mettenberger, maybe David Fales. I haven't seen much stuff on Blake Bottles so can't say anything about him.

If the read option is going to be part of their game, they better get a big guy that can take the hits. These running QB's who are slight of build like Vick, RGIII, and Ponder won't be able to stay healthy long enough to last.
Even if Ponder starts playing better, his tendency to bail out on passing plays and run will result in a string of injuries due to his slight build.
The Vikings have AP to run the ball. They need a QB that really can make all the throws, not just the short ones. A QB with accuracy but big enough to take shots and stay healthy.
I feel bad for RGII. The offense he plays in gets him beat like a running back. He's going to have a short career.
Russell Wilson and kaepernick, may be the exception as they rarely take hits.

Manziel will not be a bust. Despite his tendency to run, he continues to look down the field to throw. As I'm typing this, thee was another example of him doing so against Miss St--made a great throw for a first down. Take Manziel with our swiss cheese O-Line, and he can keep plays alive, ala Favre.
Bridgewater may be the best in a QB drill, but put him under center (which he never does in Louisville) with NFL calibur rushers, and he will be a bust.
Manziel, or that UCF kid are the only... yes ONLY... QBs I want on our team from this year's draft.Trying to bring rationale to an irrational site
What about Bryce Petty? His efficiency stats are very good. 21 passing TDs and 1 INT along with 8 rushing TDs are superb . He is 6-3 and 230 lbs.
Johnny Manziel has some upside, but his picks and happy feet in a solid pocket are scary. His 72.5 completion percentage is too good to overlook casually.
Note on that video that a defender shadows Manziel on every play.

Asset, Document, & Work Management via the Web
If you are like most companies that are struggling with asset management and maintenance you have a system to manage that information. It's called Excel. It was fine when you had 1 site and a few assets. But you've grown and your organization is struggling under the weight of trying to manage multiple sites or perhaps hundreds of sites. Perhaps you need to capture your data better for compliance reasons. Whatever the cause you know you need better fixed asset management.
There is a solution to your problems. It's called Transcendent® and it comes in several versions. After viewing some of the options; you can visit our pricing page or request a demo.
Enterprise Asset Management
Spreadsheets are not the answer. Manage assets in a system designed for more effective asset management.
Successful organizations are able to manage their assets from the planning stages through retirement/replacement. The purpose of asset management is to make sure that organizations obtain the greatest return for their investment. In a perfect world, once an asset has been purchased, it never breaks down or requires maintenance and will last forever. We know this is not going to happen, so good asset management covers having a plan for proper maintenance, the tracking of all work performed and the ability to identify potential problems and react quickly to issues that may shorten the expected asset lifecycle.
Document & Contract Management
Centrally locate all asset & building information such as contracts, warranties, and other documents.
Documents such as blueprints, receipts, vendor contracts, PDF files, and pictures can be uploaded and tagged for fast online retrieval. With our EAM system you will no longer need to worry about finding the needed documents, keeping track or shipping them to a remote location.
True asset related document & contract management.
Work Management
The work order lifecycle is the heart of maintenance management.
Work management starts with knowing everything about assets such as location, description, condition, classification and then bar-coding each asset for the planning of maintenance activity. Once set up, work requests, inspections, preventive maintenance and all work orders are automated and tracked for results. The goal of EAM is make work management as efficient as possible while at the same time ensuring optimal uptime and asset efficiency.
Increase your facilities maintenance mobility by integrating rugged handheld devices into maintenance operations.
These mobile devices virtually eliminate the need for clipboards or paper trails. Inspections, rounds, and work orders can all be completed using a user friendly menu for navigation. Results can be transmitted back to management for analysis or action. By reducing the amount of time it takes to complete manual tracking, maintenance staff can accomplish more in the same amount of time. The increased mobility also enables management to react to problems faster compared to waiting for maintenance staff to return. Faster reactions makes for less downtime.
Full control.
There is a big difference between Enterprise Asset Management and spreadsheets… or for that matter our Enterprise Asset Management system and our competitors, including:
- Full user management
- Security management: (up to SOX compliance level if necessary)
- License management
- Mobile device management
What does EAM and CMMS stand for?
A glossary of relevant EAM & CMMS terms.
We're glad you asked because we found it confusing too. To try and help, we created a glossary of the most important EAM & CMMS terms and acronyms.

By Karen Cohilas - bio | email ALBANY, GA (WALB) – Expectant moms and new mothers can get free advice and health information right on their cell phones. The Southwest Health district is promoting an initiative called Text4Baby.
Pregnant women or new mothers can sign up and receive health information about their pregnancy or about childcare through their child's first year on their cell phones.
Not all expectant mom's in Southwest Georgia get the vital prenatal care they need. District Health Director Dr. Jacqueline Grant, says the text messages will help mother's take care of their health and give their babies the best possible start in life.
"We are more in a digital age, especially with young mothers and mostly everybody has cell phones, so this is a great way to just get some information and get it straight to the source," said Dr. Grant. "I just think it's a wonderful program."
To sign up, just text the word BABY to 511411. Participants will receive about three messages a week, and almost all cell phone providers have waived charges and providing the service free of charge. You can also register online.

--Lower imports trim crude oil stocks
--Gasoline stocks highest in 23 months, but rise smaller than expected
--Cushing crude oil stocks climb to new record high
By David Bird
NEW YORK--Crude-oil futures prices were higher at mid-morning Wednesday after U.S. inventory data showed an unexpected drop in the nationwide crude-oil stockpile.
Data from the Energy Information Administration showed crude oil stocks fell by 951,000 barrels in the week ended Jan. 11, while forecasters called for a sizeable rise. A drop of more than 300,000 barrels a day in crude oil imports contributed to the decline in the week, the EIA data show.
Analysts surveyed by Dow Jones Newswires had called for a 2.1-million-barrel rise in crude inventories. The EIA data show crude oil stocks in the key Gulf Coast refining region, where much of U.S. imports arrive, fell by 3.8 million barrels in the week, with gains in other areas offsetting some of the decline.
Light, sweet crude oil for February delivery on the New York Mercantile Exchange was 93 cents higher, at $94.21 a barrel. Prices were up by about 25 cents ahead of the data release. ICE North Sea Brent crude oil for February, ahead of its expiration at the settlement, was 21 cents higher, at $110.51 a barrel. March Brent was 29 cents higher, at $109.92 a barrel.
Andrew Lebow, senior vice president of energy futures at Jefferies Bache in New York, said he thought the price gain after the data was overdone. "I thought the numbers were pretty lackluster, but if we can close at these prices, it will be bullish." Despite the gain, to an intraday high of $94.36 a barrel, crude remained below recent intraday highs. Crude hasn't settled above $94.14 a barrel since mid-September 2012.
Crude oil inventories at Cushing, Okla. rose 1.78 million barrels to a record high 51.862 million barrels last week, the EIA said. Analysts said high stocks are keeping Nymex crude prices in check, but they expect inventories will begin to drain as more crude oil flows to the Gulf region after a pipeline expansion that opened in recent days.
Gasoline inventories climbed for an eighth straight week and stand at the highest level for this time of year on EIA data beginning in 1990. Stocks are highest in any week in nearly two years, since February 2011.
But gasoline prices rose on the news because the increase of 1.91 million barrels was less than expectations and less than half the size of a 4.1 million-barrel rise reported by the American Petroleum Institute, a trade group, in its inventory report released late Tuesday afternoon. Gasoline stocks have gained 34.6 million barrels, or 17.3%, in the past eight weeks. But the modest rise last week reduced the size of the surplus to the year-ago and five-year-average levels.
The EIA also said distillate stocks (diesel/heating oil) rose by 1.686 million barrels, which was slightly more than expected, but heating oil prices added to earlier gains on forecasts for colder-than-normal temperatures through the end of January in the key Northeast U.S. market.
February reformulated gasoline blendstock futures were 2.13 cents higher, at $2.7279 a gallon, while heating oil was up 1.96 cents at $3.0309 a gallon.

Thursday night the Augusta County School Board heard a presentation from one of its own.
Board member Nick Collins showed both the public and his peers some numbers. He compared Augusta to nine other counties in the region, specifically Rockingham, which is similar in size to Augusta.
Collins argues that if Augusta County contributed as much per student as Rockingham County it could better serve its community.
"We would have six or seven more million dollars annually to put into our school budget, to put towards teacher salaries, to put towards technology, to put towards healthcare benefits, to put towards everything that this school system offers," Collins said.

|Hello from Kentucky USA!
In regard to this page, I have drawn up a couple of 78xx high current circuits you might like to consider. I've used them for a 30amp power supply with a 7815 regulator.
REUK Added Info: The MJE3055 is an NPN silicon power transistor rated at up to 60V, up to 75 Watts, and up to 10 Amps. Click here to view the MJE3055 Datasheet for more information.
If you are unable to find the MJE3055, any NPN power transistor with a similar rating can be used instead. Click here to view a selection of NPN power transistors.
I have since switched to using the better LM723 regulator so that I can adjust the voltage and it is far more reliable than the 78xx. I have used the LM723 for a 105amp supply.
REUK Added Info:The LM723 is a voltage regulator rated for outputs of 150mA at an adjustable voltage from 2V to 37V. By adding transistors as shown in the schematics above high output currents at the regulated voltage can be output. Click here to view the LM723 datasheet.
The LM723 is available in the UK from around 30 pence. Click here to buy an LM723 now.
I've learned a few things on your site so I thought I'd pass along a little in return.
Ken Weaver, 17th August 2009
The benefit of this first schematic is that the output is actually regulated; the PNP is fully in the feedback loop.
However in Ken's circuit, the bases of the 3055 are regulated, but not the emitters, where the output is taken. Thus for every current ratio of 2.7 the voltage drops by 25mV.

Janelle Monae took to the red carpet for the Variety Breakthrough of the Year Awards during the 2014 International CES at the Las Vegas Hotel & Casino on Thursday (January 9) in Las Vegas, Nevada prior to her performance.
The singer broke her strict black-and-white dress code, wearing a Fausto Puglisi Fall 2013 tartan biker jacket featuring leather sleeves with gold embellished detailing – a signature of this collection.
For someone with such impeccable style, this look falls surprisingly flat. I think it's the white jodhpurs which are killing the look for me.

The investigation continues into a 15-hour hostage stand-off that came to a tragic end around 8-o'clock last night.
Lubbock police investigators remain on the scene of a deadly stand-off that occurred last night. Today, officials are processing the scene at 65th drive and Avenue L. That's where 24-year-old Jason Flowers shot and killed his 23-year-old former girlfriend Michelle King. He then turned the gun on himself.
The 15-hour standoff at a South Lubbock apartment complex began around 4-o'clock Friday morning. That's when Flowers took King hostage. For hours, Police negotiators tried to talk Flowers into giving himself up. Then, around 8-o'clock, Flowers told authorities he would; that's when shots were fired.
"We were in negotiations with Jason Flowers he told us that he was going to prepare to move things away from the door to where he could prepare to give himself up at that time multiple shots were heard inside the room we did gain entry through a wall on the outside of the apartment with our rescue vehicle we used two flash bangs once inside Michelle King was found shot several times and he was laying on the bed that was propped in front of the door barricading the door inside of the apartment and he also was shot." stated Claude Jones, Chief of the Lubbock Police Department.
Police did not shoot at the suspect during the standoff, and no officers were injured.

Satromizer started as a Adobe After Effects 3.0 plugin written by Ben Syverson as a response to Jon Satrom's video KOLOBOKZ. About a year ago Ben and Jon Satrom joined forces and released the Satromizer for the iPhone. The duo has just announced Satromizer OS, the new version of Satromizer for the iPad. Taking the concept of glitch further, the new Satromizer OS will include a bug game, a glitchy word processor, a desktop drum machine and an MP3 sample corruptor, all of this in addition to the standard features of Satromizer. Each of the modes explore the notion of glitch in a slightly different way, utilising iOS features and providing an alternative interface to manipulate media on your device (see video below).
When asked to participate in the Funware Exhibition curated by Olga Goriunova at MU, Eindhoven, NL, 2010, and Hartware MedienKunstVerein, Dortmund, DE, 2011; Satrom and Syverson struggled with the imagery to install on the device to allow gallery viewers to Satromize. The two playfully gravitated towards inventing an alternative operating system built atop the Satromizer. Satromizer OS (or sOS) is positioned as a productivity and entertainment platform for glitch art.
In sOS, Satromizing is more than just mere file corruption, it's a foundational building block that can be integrated into any app. From sliders to scalers; from loaders to pre-loaders, the Satromizer building blocks are unmistakeable in Satromizer OS. Nearly everything you touch glitches before your eyes!

Christine O'Donnell, Charlie Crist Defeated
Christine O'Donnell, who received more media coverage than any other candidate this election, was defeated by her opponent Democrat Christopher Coons in the Delaware Senate race today.
Before the election she told CBN's David Brody, "God is the reason I'm running." Alicia Cohn wrote about O'Donnell in the women's blog round-up of this year's female candidates.
Reminiscent of Sarah Palin, who endorsed her, O'Donnell is the type of woman who has many fellow conservatives racing to disassociate themselves. O'Donnell hits a lot of strong points and is an outspoken Christian. But she also has made flamboyant statements — about witchcraft, masturbation, teaching evolution in schools, and the separation of church and state — that have raised eyebrows and set off "airhead" alerts across media.
Republican Marco Rubio defeated Gov. Charlie Crist to win Florida's Senate seat. Earlier this year, Crist vetoed legislation that would have required a woman to get an ultrasound test before an abortion and bar federal funding for abortion, and he said he was open to gay adoption.
Charlie Crist lost the senate race for other reasons than what you mention in here. You mention a far right fringe political point. 5% of the people give a crap about that.
The main reason he was defeated was very simple.
When he ran for Governor, he made enormous promises about homeowners insurance reform after the 2004-2005 Hurricanes, and what did he deliver? an average of $200 per household. Everybody's response was...wow 4 tanks of gas, thanks for nothing Charlie.
At lease he worked on his tan.

U.S. Supreme Court
Retired Justice Would Like More Midwesterners and Westerners on the Court
Posted Nov 16, 2010 10:39 AM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
Retired Justice John Paul Stevens would like to see more geographic and educational diversity on the U.S. Supreme Court.
In an interview with the Houston Chronicle, Stevens responded to a question about diversity this way: "Personally, I would like to see more Midwesterners or Westerners and not as many from the Ivy League schools," he said. "But that does not mean any one of them is not fully qualified. It's a problem that there are only so many seats available."
In a follow-up Stevens was asked whether diverging political views were important. "I suppose, but I was using the term to mean diversity as between different parts of the country and different backgrounds," he said. "For example, we don't have any former legislators on the court. Different backgrounds are helpful because you do get different insights in your group discussions."
Currently, eight members of the U.S. Supreme Court are graduates of Harvard and Yale law schools while the ninth, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, graduated from Columbia Law School after transferring there from Harvard.
Stevens was born and raised in Chicago, where he attended Northwestern University School of Law. He graduated first in his class.
The other retired justice, Sandra Day O'Connor, had served in the Arizona state senate and attended Stanford Law School.
Stevens also told the Chronicle that he found work on the Supreme Court stimulating and the cases always interesting. "Over and over again, I remember seeing a case on the horizon that I thought was going to be a real dog and have no interest to me whatsoever," he said. "But when you get into it you find that there are interesting angles to almost every case that gets all the way up here."

I didn't fall asleep till about 2:30, and though really in theory five hours of sleep is entirely adequate, I was in horror when the alarm went off at 7:15. Felt vaguely queasy and conspicuously lacking in vim, but it was a solid workout regardless (though I now wish I could go back to bed instead of to campus for my heavy teaching day!).

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - An early-morning semi fire shut down a busy interstate during morning rush hour.
Smoke could be seen from far off shortly after 6:30 a.m. Wednesday morning in the northbound lanes of I-71, north of the I-265 Gene Snyder Freeway.
One northbound lane reopened by 8:15 a.m. Above the burned truck, the camera from Air 3 showed the fire well extinguished by then.
However, a long line of cars heading north on I-71 stretched back to the I-264 Watterson Expressway.
No injuries were reported in the fire.
It was not immediately known what ignited the flames.

Ataturk Airport was first built in 1912 for military purposes. Later it was renamed Yesilkoy Airport. In 1947 work began to convert it into an international airport and it was finally completed in 1953. Further development took place in the 1970's. Today it is used by approximately 20 million passengers every year. It is currently the only airport in Istanbul Europe.
The airport is located on the west coast and it leads onto the motorway.
The airport is also surrounded by business hotels and exhibition halls. A mere 10 minutes away from the airport is a cosy, little town on the coast where you will find some nice restaurants and cafés.
Click on the link for the airport shuttle timetable and to organise your journey; http://www.ataturkairport.com/en-EN/Pages/Main.aspx
This castle was built in 1394 by the Ottoman Sultan Bayezid, approximately 60 years before the castle on the European side of the Bosphorus, Rumeli Hisari, was built. It was constructed for the same purpose, the initial preparation for the Siege of Constantinople which took place in 1395.
Rumeli Hisari is situated on the narrowest point of the Bosphorus Strait.It is a rather small castle with a creek on the side called Goksu, as well as wooden houses and kiosks, making it a very cosy area. It is very nice to see from both land and the sea.
Along the Bosphorus Strait, you will see the most splendid houses and mansions, all the way from Bebek to Rumeli Hisari. Bebek is one of the most luxurious places in Istanbul to eat and live in. Young people living in Istanbul Europe meet here at the weekends.
The Beyazit district is centred on Beyazit Square, which was the main city square and palace entrance during Byzantine times. Today it is still at the centre of the historical peninsula. It is very easy to get there by tram. There is also a bus station on the square with transport running to all areas across the city.
Beyazit Mosque and the Grand Bazaar are the places to see here. The biggest university in Istanbul is Istanbul University and it has a huge campus and a library. The library is home to old handwritten texts. It receives many visits by researchers as it is a great historical resource. The library is closed during the weekends. You can go during normal visiting hours throughout the week.
Follow the tramline from Beyazit Square and you will find yourself at Sultanahmet, a district full of history.
The most amazing mansions in Istanbul Asia start at Beylerbeyi. This side of the Bosphorus is quieter and more peaceful than the European side. On the north of the Bosphorus Bridge, there is a splendid palace, the Beylerbeyi Palace. It was built in 1865 and acted as an Imperial Ottoman summer residence, also hosting visiting heads of state. The palace is really magnificent when seen from the sea.
Beylerbeyi is a quiet but more expensive area to live in. The wealthier people in Turkey own pavilions and mansions here, Mansions and pavilions line the water front and the surrounding area from Beylerbeyi to Anadolu Hisari.
The Asian side is much less crowded than the European side of Istanbul. There isn't much industry there. Bostanci is one of the oldest districts in Asia. In the olden days there were mainly villas and mansions, situated on the waterfront. Today, there are only apartments due to the increasing population, however, the atmosphere hasn't changed that much from the past.
There are nice restaurants and cafés by the waterfront. You can also see some of the Princes' Islands from there and take a boat to see them.
When you go uphill, you will find yourself in a similar shopping area to Nisantasi. The atmosphere is different but again you will find most of the top brand name stores there.
Galata is becoming so popular that it is beginning to replace Cihangir however, it is still the top district in Istanbul Europe with lots of people living there.
So, why do lots of people like it there? It is a small town where everyone knows each other. When you live in Istanbul this is something you miss; friendly greetings from your neighbours or walking along the street . There is much less personal contact in the big city, as everyone is in a rush to get to work or go to school. However, Cihangir is much more relaxed in that respect. It has nice cafes and small restaurants, where you can relax in the afternoon or go on a pleasant evening out with your friends.
Walking down the hill from Cihangir, you will end up in Tophane, where all the well known shisha bars are found. After trying a traditional shisha, you can continue along the coast which will take you to Besiktas, home to the great Dolmabahce Palace and where Ataturk died (founder of the Republic of Turkey).
If you follow the coast from Sultanahmet, the first place you will get to is Eminonu and the Spice Market, which has stood there since 1664. Legend has it that it was around in Byzantine times as well. The market is in an L shape, thus you will enter one way and end up at another door. In 1691 and 1940 there were huge fires, however the market fortunately survived both. Although, it was badly damaged by the second fire, it has been well renovated.
On the coast there is a great mosque, which was completed in 1663. At the Mosque's main entrance stairs there are always a lot of pigeons. These pigeons are fed by people visiting the mosque during the day or by passers-by.
Etiler is famous for its chic cafés, bars, night life, restaurants, fashion shops and shopping centres, such as Akmerkez and Mayadrom Uptown. It is a popular area amongst Istanbul's elite. There are mainly villas and private residences here.
Etiler is an older name in Turkish for the Hittites, as it was fashionable in the early years of the Turkish Republic to give the names of ancient Anatolian civilizations to the new districts of Istanbul.
This district extends from the Golden Horn all the way to the shore of the Black Sea and is a historically important area, especially for Turkey's muslims. Highlights of the neighbourhood include the Pierre Loti café named after the French novelist and naval officer (1850 – 1923), who lived there for some time, and the Eyup Sultan Mosque.
It has stood there since 1458 and is more than just a mosque given that it has tall cypres trees and very important people from the Ottoman Palace have been buried there. No other mosque in Istanbul can boast this. For this reason, the mosque is visited by many who go to pray, ask for good things for the future and beg for mercy from the Eyup Sultan.
The most important historical places to see around the Golden Horn are;
Pammakaristos Church (Fethiye Mosque) : Built in the 12th century, it was the headquarters of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate from 1456 to 1568. The church was converted into a mosque in 1591. The side-chapel is a museum and contains wonderful Byzantine mosaics.
Valens Aqueduct :This two storey aqueduct (water supply channel) was built in 368 during the time of Emperor Valens. The water ran from the Belgrade Forest to the Great Palace in Sultanahmet. This aqueduct was used up until the 19th century.
Fatih Mosque : This huge baroque mosque is where the tomb of Mehmet the Conquer lies. Many Byzantine emperors are also buried here, including Constantine. The building was destroyed in an earthquake in 1766 and rebuilt in the 18th century.
Prince's Mosque (Şehzade Camii): Built by architect Sinan during the reign of Suleyman The Magnificient. It is the first imperial mosque and has a very elegant design.
Theodosian Walls : These walls were built between 412 and 422 by Emperor Theodosius. The walls stretch from Yeditepe (the Sea of Marmara) to Ayvansaray (the Golden Horn). You can still walk upon some of the sections, especially those in the Yedikule district.
Church of St.George (Aya Yorgi) : This is the worldwide headquarters of the Greek Orthodox Church.
Pierre Loti : French author Pierre Loti lived in this area for a long time whilst he was writing his novel. He fell in love with a local woman. The hill and the café that he went to on a frequent basis were named after him. You can reach Pierre Loti Café situated on the hill via the cable car nearby to Eyüp Mosque or even by walking up there. The view of the Golden Horn from the top is beautiful.
Miniaturk : This is a park where miniature versions of Istanbul and Turkey's most impressive structures are exhibited. Bosphorus Bridge, Hagia Sophia and Topkapi Palace all feature. There is also a miniature railway, model cars, boats, a cinema and a playground.
Galata is one of the districts in Istanbul that you can write pages about or talk about for hours. It is old, but also modern; it is a peaceful but also dynamic place; and it isn't trendy but it is very popular.
Galata is situated between the Golden Horn and the Bosphorus Strait. It is a place where the intellectual population of the city desires to live. And many do.
Galata is mostly visited for the Galata Tower, the Kamondo Steps and the Voyvoda Police Station. Galata Tower was built in 507 by the Byzantines as a lighthouse. It is one of the oldest towers in the world. It was last renovated in 1967. Today the tower offers tourists a 360 degree view of the city and there is a restaurant at the top.
The Kamondo Steps were built in the 1850s by a banker named Avram Kamondo to connect Voyvoda Street with Bankers Street. It has been photographed many times for its architecture, and it is a popular tourist destination.
This is one of the main business districts in Istanbul. What attract tourists the most in Levent are the huge shopping centres hosting international brand stores.
The tallest building in Turkey is also located here. Sapphire, with 54 floors and 238 metres high is a residence, also housing a shopping centre and offices.
Maslak is another business district in Istanbul Europe. Again, the main attraction for tourists here are the stores. Here you will find famous brand shopping outlets.
There are a lot of skyscrapers in this area which makes it looks like Manhattan Island, especially at night. The tallest building here has 38 floors.
A new and very chic and elegant city district. All the restaurants, shops and buildings here have been organised and decorated in an elegant way. Top international names and famous local brand stores line the main street Rumeli. It is quite expensive to eat or go shopping here, however it is nice for enjoying a pleasant walk.
The Ortokay Mosque is an amazing building and a great work of art, a definite must-see. It has stood on the Bosphorus Strait since 1853, and looks splendid day and night.
Particularly worth seeing in this area are the nice cafés, tall trees, a small boat landing stage, people exhibiting handmade goods on the street and vendors selling baked potatoes. Ortakoy is most popular for its famous night clubs and bars.
They are known as the Princes' Islands or the Red Islands. There are 9 altogether, 4 large and 5 smaller islands. The reason they are called Princes' Islands is that the unfavorable members of the dynasties during Byzantine and Ottoman times were exiled there. They were considered a remote area then.
Buyukada is the preferred island for many. Here you can see the Hagios Giorgios Church, built on the highest point of the island. It is a three-quarters of an hour climb to the top on foot as cars are not allowed on the island and it is too steep to ride a bike or a horse. When you get there you will also get an amazing view of the other islands. In addition, if you go there on national wish day, you will be joined by tens of thousands of other people.
The castle was built in 1452, to prevent aid reaching Constantinople during the planned Turkish siege of Istanbul by Sultan Mehmet II. The castle has 3 main towers, which have the largest bastions in the world. The castle was completed between 1451 and 1452, is situated at the narrowest point of the Bosphorus, and stands across from Anadolu Hisari, another castle on the Anatolian side.
Today, the castle is used for cultural activities like shows and concerts following its renovation.
This airport has become an international airport, taking some of the pressure off Ataturk Airport, and is getting busier every year.
(The airport has become International and taking the load of Ataturk Airport away and is becoming a busy international airport every year.)
It is named after the world's first female combat pilot Sabiha Gokcen, who died in 2001 at the age of 88.
The airport area was empty up until recently however, it is now becoming more and more crowded and Istanbul is getting bigger every year to accommodate the ever increasing population.
Click on the link for the airport shuttle timetable and to organise your journey.
It is the most popular destination in Istanbul and a favourite amongst the locals. Everyone, down to the smallest child, has seen the great Blue Mosque, Ayasofya and Topkapi Palace. It is always quite crowded but it is a very pleasant walk along the historical roads in the district as cars are not allowed to pass.
There are more than twenty mosques, churches and museums, amongst many other attractions, to see. To properly visit Sultanahmet and Beyazit, you will probably need an entire day. There is something interesting to see around every corner. With its large gardens and great restaurants, exploring the area won't be too exhausting an experience.
Making your way north from the historical district, you will arrive at Taksim Square. You can also access all the other areas of the city with the public transport from the square. However, Taksim Square is not busy all day simply due to the transport system, but more for the activities on offer during the day and the nightlife.
You can also drive to Cihangir or walk to Galata along Istikal Street, where cars aren't allowed to pass, from Taksim Square. On the way there you will come across well-known brand stores, good restaurants, and of course lots of cafés, bars and clubs. With all kinds of live music ranging from pop to jazz on offer and DJ's featuring everyday of the week, visitors will have an unforgettable experience.
Taksim is the multicultural, multilingual and multireligion area of Istanbul. When walking down Istiklal Street you will come across Orthodox and Catholic churches, as well as synagogues, foreign institutes and embassies from ten different countries. There are also museums and modern art galleries.

Sold a home in 2012.
Recently I've been involved in two estate sales for family members. Dene has always been our "realtor of choice" so of course I called on her to help sell both properties. I would imagine that these types of sales take a little bit more work for a realtor but Dene handled both of them flawlessly. Thank you Dene---and to anyone looking for a great realtor---I highly recommend.....Dene Yarwood!!! . .

Bought a home in 2011.
Amazing!!!!!! She accomplished the impossible. I was trying to buy a house that had had multiple contracts on it prior to my trying to get it. I knew this and didn't really think it was possible to get this property due to the mess it was in. Crazy bank situation, foreclosure... etc. And she did it! I could not have been more impressed with the work she put into this transaction and the miracle she pulled off because of her persistence, knowlege and hard work. And she made it look so easy when I in fact know it took an incredible amount of time and energy from her to pull this off.
I would recommed Dene to anyone, any day of the week, to help you with your real estate needs. Especially in this new era of financial workings, she is really, really good. She never once made me feel stressed or anxious throughout the process, but rather kept a very upbeat and positive attitude even though I am certain she was dealing with some VERY difficult institutions and their employees.
I am still shocked that I got this property and am so thankful to Dene for helping me. I have recommended her to many friends and all have been thrilled with her services. I will ONLY use her as my realtor in the future.

Sold a home in 2011.
Dene did a fantastic job in helping my adult son and daughter with the sale of a home and a business this past year. Both sales involved difficulties as they were both part of an estate from an unexpected family death. Dene handled both transactions with amazing expertise and tact. I would highly recommend Dene to handle ANY real estate transaction.

Bought a Single Family home in 2006 in Parker, CO.
I had two days, in the fall of 2006, to find a house in the South Denver to Castle Rock corridor. Dene created a strategy so that we could look at a large number of homes in those two days. She forwarded the listings to me prior to my arrival and continued reviewing new listings right up to picking me up at the hotel. Dene's knowledge of the area, homes, financing, and her negotiation skills made for a very efficient, successful home search, offer, and contract. I have recommended Dene to my friends and will continue to do so.

Bought a home in 2012.
My family needed to quickly relocate to Longmont, CO from Houston, TX. We chose Dene because she had great reviews and (based on her profile) had a lot of experience with long distant relocations. I called her a week before we needed to fly out and house hunt. I know under normal circumstances this is probably not enough time to prepare, however, Dene was very responsive with correspondence and extremely flexible with her schedule (we met on a Friday and Saturday). This made planning and executing the house hunt very easy. Dene was very knowledgeable and never pushy about buying a home. She let us take as much time in each house as we desired. We found a house and made an offer. My husband and I were prepared for a counter offer, but it never came. The Seller accepted our first offer thanks to Dene's expert negotiating skills. Dene was very tech savvy as well. The day we made the offer we were flying back to Houston (on a Saturday). She had the contract ready to go and emailed to us before we ever got on the plane. She explained how to sign it electronically on my husband's iPhone. We could not have asked for a better home-buying experience!

I highly recommend Dene Yarwood. She was very professional. She had an answer for every question we had and if she didn't she was prompt about finding an answer or solution. She was also a lot of fun to work with and made the whole process of selling and buying our house enjoyable.

Bought a Single Family home in 2010 for approximately $575K in Arvada, CO.
Dene helped us purchase our house in Arvada last year. We looked at many houses when we moved from Illinois. Dene was very patient with us and the perseverance paid off. She was very professional and personable and made sure we understood the Denver area housing market. We especially appreciate the time Dene took to welcome us to Colorado, get to know our family and our needs, and make sure every detail of our purchase was taken care of. We are extremely happy with our home and community and highly recommend Dene to our friends and neighbors.

Sold a Single Family home in 2010 for approximately $450K in Arvada, CO.
Dene Yarwood has assisted our family in the purchase of two homes (2004 & 2010) and the sale of one home (2010). As a frame of reference, these were the 9th and 10th homes that our family has purchased, owned and occupied in the last twenty-five years. In other words, we have had quite a bit of experience with homebuying, selling and household moves in all regions of the United States. Without question, Dene Yarwood has been the most competent, professional and personable real estate professional we have ever had the pleasure of working with. Dene's knowledge of the local market, process diligence and ability to understand and deliver for her clients is second to none. We strongly recommend Dene to anyone considering the purchase or sale of a home.

Sold a home in 2011.
I took the trouble to interview the top agents in the area and this agent was the most knowledgeable, professional and personable of them all. I chose her to represent me and I cannot be more elated both on the way she represented my interest but her results.
It was refreshing working with Dene and know there are still individuals who take pride in their work and being the best they can be for their clients.
They don't come any better than this folks!

Sold a home in 2010.
I was referred to Dene Yarwood by a friend who had nothing but great things to say about Dene. I had a particular wish list and Dene was honest on what I could get for my budget in certain areas. During our search, I was so pleased when Dene would bring things to my attention that I may have overlooked. She truly wanted to show me homes that fit my wish list and life style. She was honest about the market, flexible and most of all made house hunting fun :) I will definitely refer Dene to others and use her in the future.

With the UFAs left, it might be in the Red Wings best interest to address their offense this offseason and wait until next season to bring in a top tier defenseman. There are too many questions surrounding the remaining key defensemen. Rozsival, Spacek, Finger, Eaton, Kubina are all past their prime and mostly been overpaid. Colaiacovo has yet to play a full season. He's barely played over 60 games the past 4 years. Foster, Sauer, Jurcina, Huskins, Hannan are all bottom 3 defenseman. While they don't make huge mistakes, they're not going to be any better than Ian White is in their own zone but don't add the offense that White does.
Pickings are certainly slim. So how about this:
Forget about finding a top defenseman this year unless it is via trade. Sign a veteran stay at home defenseman to pair with Brendan Smith in the 3rd pair for a 1 year deal and readdress it next year. Next year's class of defenseman should be more promising. Among the list of possible UFAs are Mark Streit, Ryan Whitney, Alexander Edler, Tobias Enstrom, Ron Hainsey, Robyn Regher, Rob Scuderi, Marc-Edouard Vlasic, and if he signs a 1 yr RFA, Shea Weber.
Here's our defense this year:
Kronwall - Ericsson
White - Quincey
Randy Jones - Smith
Next year it could be:
Kronwall - Weber/Enstrom/Whitney
Streit/Vlasic - Ericsson
Hainsey/Jones/Scuderi - Smith
So lets go out and get Semin, Nash, Doan, or Ryan to score in bunches this year. We're going to need it.

Detailed information on blood transfusions and the child having surgery
Touring the hospital before surgery can help your child see the sights, sounds, and events he or she will experience the day of surgery. It is a non-threatening, often reassuring, way to learn about the hospital.
You will be asked to sign an informed consent form which states in detail that you understand the risks and benefits of your child's surgery.
Symptoms of latex allergy include watery or itchy eyes, wheezing, hives, flushing or a skin rash, itching, or swelling.
This is the time to ask questions: What are the expected results? What are the possible risks and complications? How long will the surgery take?

This is how I imagine Todd's holiday home, in a cabin with snow and whitetails falling outside. Christmas cards from his best friends on the tree and his favorite pictures hanging on the log wall. Todd's maglite christmas lights has him covered in case of a blackout. He probably cut down his own tree, which explains the eagle eggs in the nest. I'm sure he will release them when it's warm enough, and after he's trained them to kill for food or retrieve his Bud Light.
The only thing Todd's tree is missing are gifts.

Missouri State Big Bear Invitational on Saturday Cancelled
The Missouri State track and field team announced today that this weekend's scheduled Big Bear Invitational has been cancelled. Saturday's meet was cancelled due to scheduling conflicts that prohibited enough teams to attend to qualify the meet as an official Division I meet.
The Bears, who competed in a weather-shortened meet in Columbia, Mo., on Friday, will instead head to Cape Girardeau to take part in the Joey Haines Invitational. Competition at SEMO will begin at 3:30 on Friday and at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday. The Bears began the outdoor season recording 11 top-10 finishes at the Missouri Relays.

Union workers at the Emerald Performance Material Plant in Henry have passed a troubling landmark.
They've been locked out for more than 100 days.
Union leaders say they have scheduled a bargaining session with the company next week.
In the meantime, it is all the talk and smell in Henry.
"Especially if the wind is in the right direction, it might come into town," said Don Allison, who lives less than one mile from the plant. "The breathing part of it, it is not a good situation."
Allison, 69, has lived down the road from the Emerald plant, which produces hazardous chemicals, for 12 years. Recently, he can smell it.
For the 40 workers locked out, a scanner and their makeshift office down the road the plant is the only connection to their livelihood.
"Our guys are sitting there listening, if they would just do this, this and this it would fix it, and they're still going through the same struggle fifteen minutes later," said union representative steward Brett Wiedman. "They just don't have enough experience to fix it."
When there is an accidental release of the toxic chemicals from the factory, Emerald must report it to the National Response Center. With the union workers there were two complaints in both 2008 and 2009. Since the lockout in March, there have been six.
The locked out workers say the plant was not perfect when they were in it. Last year, Emerald was fined $158,000 by the Environmental Protection Agency for a toxic chemical release that wasn't reported fast enough.
"We could minimize when something bad happened and were able to safely shut it down and stop it," said Wiedman.
Emerald Performance Materials says released a statement saying, "Of the items called in 2011, only one of these was determined to be a reportable release."
For Allison, that doesn't matter. A hazardous release and trained workers do.
"These are guys you've been with for 30 years for crying out loud. It is hard to let someone from out of town come in and run those processes and be safe about it," said Allison. "They don't know what they're doing to be safe."
The company and union are scheduled to sit down July 5 to try to reach an agreement.
