Item: The Operational Utility of Weather Forecasts
Title: The Operational Utility of Weather Forecasts
Proceedings: 2010 International Snow Science Workshop
- Randall Osterhuber [ UC Berkeley Central Sierra Snow Laboratory, Soda Springs, California ]
Date: 2010
Abstract: This paper investigates a winter season's worth of daily "front page" weather forecasts and compares these to the observed weather. The forecasts for any given day—issued five, four, three, two, one, and zero days prior to the day of observation—were analyzed for accuracy with respect to precipitation occurrence, precipitation type, hazardous winds, snowfall amount, and daily maximum and minimum air temperature. The forecasts, issued by the National Weather Service, Sacramento, California, were centered on the University of California Berkeley's Central Sierra Snow Laboratory (CSSL), 3.5 km west of the Sierra Nevada crest at Donner Pass, California. CSSL is equipped with both recording and telemetered instrumentation, and has full-time staff whom conduct a wide variety of hydrometeorologic measurements and observations. The accuracy of weather forecasts for 154 days during Winter 2010 were found to increase as forecast issue day decreased, but the most accurate forecasts were not always those issued on day zero (day of). Accuracy of the occurrence of precipitation was best one day out at 81 percent; precipitation type was forecasted most accurately 85 percent of the time three days out; and hazardous winds most accurate one day out at 94 percent. The average ratio of observed snowfall to forecasted snowfall was 1.37 for the day of, 1.47 one day out, and 1.48 two days out. Forecasts were slightly better at predicting maximum daily air temperature than minimum, with the best accuracy two days out for air temperature maximum, and one day out for minimum.

Game of Chess, 1555
Over the past few evenings I have been taking chess lessons from my 9 year old son.
This little lad is quite introverted and is often hesitant about trying new activities. When I suggested he join the chess club at school next term, he said that he isn't a very good player, to which I replied that I bet he could beat me -- and he did.
While in the past I have been taught the various moves of chess, I don't think I had ever played a full game. And what a game it is! It is difficult enough for me to try and remember what each piece does, and to focus on moving one piece around, without worrying about all the others.
I am also not very good at sacrificing pieces willingly for the greater good of my 'army'; I have a tendency to hold on till the bitter end. I can understand why chess was used to teach military strategy to statesmen in past centuries.
Anyhow, now the chess set is out, a game seems to be underway almost constantly. The whole family is joining in, and several 'experts' groan every time someone makes a faulty move.
Finally, tonight I won my first game. I ventured more, attacked more, and watched my pieces better. I think I could really start to enjoy this!

A Reminder from James Montier re: Fat Pitches
- Joshua M Brown
- January 3rd, 2012
We're doing a massive rebalance across client accounts this week here at the shop. There are some active managers we're saying goodbye to, some new names being added to the portfolio and there's a new addition to the ETF side of the ledger.
But there is certainly no major change to our allocations, weightings or inclinations just because the calendar turned over. It simply doesn't work that way.
We don't mind having some risk on but there's simply no compelling rationale to get aggressive here. The concept at this juncture remains a focus on upside capture and enough cash to be flexible until some real trend materializes. And if the year begins with a 20% face-ripping rally and we only capture a portion of it, so be it.
For more on this topic, I'll direct you towards James Montier (GMO) and his epic Seven Immutable Laws of Investing piece from March of last year.
Here's James on Waiting for the Fat Pitch (rule number 3):
3. Be Patient and Wait for the Fat Pitch
Patience is integral to any value-based approach on many levels. As Ben Graham wrote, "Undervaluations caused by neglect or prejudice may persist for an inconveniently long time, and the same applies to inflated prices caused by over-enthusiasm or artificial stimulants." (And there can be little doubt that Mr. Market's love affair with equities is based on anything other than artificial stimulants!)
However, patience is in rare supply. As Keynes noted long ago, "Compared with their predecessors, modern investors concentrate too much on annual, quarterly, or even monthly valuations of what they hold, and on capital appreciation…and too little on immediate yield … and intrinsic worth." If we replace Keynes's "quarterly" and "monthly" with "daily" and "minute-by-minute," then we have today's world.
Patience is also required when investors are faced with an unappealing opportunity set. Many investors seem to suffer from an "action bias" – a desire to do something. However, when there is nothing to do, the best plan is usually to do nothing. Stand at the plate and wait for the fat pitch.
James is amazing. Also, I don't see many fat pitches as I survey the overall landscape. Do you?

My favorite thing Stark mentions:
Loyal reader Eric Orns noticed that heading into the final day of April, Jose Reyes had as many unintentional walks in April as Barry Bonds (13). Three years ago, Bonds walked 232 times -- and Reyes walked five times.
Reyes has more walks than (among others) Albert Pujols, Derrek Lee, Jason Bay, Carlos Beltran, and Adam Dunn. What a remarkable turnaround.

The eight-member Madison Board of Education again voted Lisa Ellis president and Patrick Rowe vice president at the school board's reorganization meeting Tuesday.
Returning school board members Ellis, Kevin Blair and Linda Gilbert, who were elected by voters in November, took the oath of office, and the Harding Board of Education picked member James Novotny to be its representative on Madison's school board for another year,
That means the board's makeup for 2013 is the same as last year.
New Madison Borough Councilman Ben Wolkowitz, the council's liaison to the school board for the year, attended the meeting.
His attendance was welcomed by Ellis, and also by resident Tom Piskula, who said at recent school board and Borough Council meetings it would be valuable to have a council member at the school board meetings.
"At a minimum, a council member's presence at the BoE meetings might signal town leadership awareness of the desirability of maintaining school improvement as a town priority rather than just a priority of the school users," he wrote in a comment on Madison Patch as his suggestion for Madison in 2013.
Superintendent Dr. Michael Rossi said the district is completing its new teacher evaluation system, staying tuned for updated word from Trenton on a number of state curriculum and testing initiatives, and is looking to reduce the district's electric consumption by 5 percent. The district also is moving forward with fixing a retaining wall at Kings Road School and is working with a homeland security expert to have its security infrastructure and policies reviewed.

News: GZA Squeezed Out Juice Crew Shot, "[He] Turned Down Being One Of The Members"
Thursday, Feb 10, 2011 5:40PM
The legendary Juice Crew, consisting of rap pioneers such as Kool G Rap and Biz Markie, reportedly offered Wu-Tang Clan's GZA a chance to join the infamous clique back in the day, according to Raekwon.
The "Chef" claims GZA had a shot at linking with JC but turned down the opportunity.
"The GZA had a record deal, Rae revealed in an interview. "Back then [I heard] GZA turned down being one of the members of the Juice Crew. So you know, these were the guys that we knew would be the outlet for getting put on one way or another." (XXL Mag)
Active from nearly a decade (1983-1991), the Juice Crew is collectively known for their rap battles and collabo cuts.
The Juice Crew was a hip hop collective of largely Queensbridge-based artists in the mid- to late-1980s. Founded by producer Marley Marl and radio DJ Mr. Magic and housed by Tyrone William's Cold Chillin' Records, the Juice Crew would introduce New School artists Big Daddy Kane, Biz Markie, Roxanne Shanté and Kool G Rap. The crew produced many answer records and "beefs" - primarily with rival radio jock Kool DJ Red Alert and the South Bronx's Boogie Down Productions - as well as the "posse cut", "The Symphony". (Wikipedia)
Around 2008, KRS-One talked to SOHH about a Juice Crew film being scraped.
"The movie kinda collapsed," KRS explained. "I spoke to Talib Kweli who was supposed to be playing Scott La Rock and I was gonna coach him through that but then the movie collapsed on his end. I spoke to Biz Markie yesterday 'cause the movie was supposed to be called The Vapors and asked Biz, 'what's up?' I guess they didn't get the response they wanted. A press release was sent out that didn't have anything [confirming the production], but it got people hyped and support-but no money came with it. That's the last I heard." (SOHH)
Despite declining the Juice Crew invitation, GZA went on to flourish as a member of the Wu.
Time passed, and the Genius landed a recording contract with Cold Chillin', which, unfortunately, was nearing the end of its brilliant run. In 1991, he became the only future Wu-Tang member to release a solo album prior to the Clan's formation, with Words From the Genius. (All Music)

An entire country separates Morriston's Dottie Hydue from her step-daughter in California, but it hasn't deterred her from becoming an advocate to raise awareness for the need for living organ donors.
March 10 was National Kidney Day, and Hydue can't think of a better way to commemorate it than by urging people to consider becoming an organ donor.
Her stepdaughter, Tracie Skaggs, 48, suffers from kidney failure and undergoes dialysis while she waits on a matching donor.

Argentina beat Switzerland thanks to the FC Barcelona star. Messi, who scored a hat-trick, and Mascherano played the whole match
Éric Abidal's, who also played the full 90 minutes, France beat Germany in Bremen (1-2). France has gone 18 games without knowing defeat
France wins in Bremen
Éric Abidal started for the French national team managed by Laurent Blanc against Joachim Löw's Germany. It was an excellent matchup ahead of this EURO championship this summer. France scored on 21 minutes thanks to a Giroud goal. In the second half, the French team scored another thanks to Malouda, in the last minute, Cacao brought Germany within one. Final score 1-2.
Leo Messi led his Argentina in the country's first friendly of 2012. It was a good opportunity to test the South American side ahead of the Brazil World Cup 2014 qualifiers. The Argentine star, once again, took a step forward and showed the world his superb footballing qualities. This was Messi's first hat-trick for Argentina.
The first goal came on 19 minutes, after a good combination play with Agüero, the other two came at the end of the match. On 88 minutes, the Barça star won the ball back and skipped past his mark before firing Argentina ahead (2-1), the third was scored on 93 minutes, from the penalty spot. With these 3 goals, Barça's playmaker takes his tally to 22 goals in 68 matches for Argentina.
Mascherano, commanding the midfield
Javier Mascherano also played the whole match. He played in the middle of the pitch and directed his team's play. The Azulgrana was sure and calm in his return to the position he grew accustomed to in Liverpool.

U.S. official said Monday that the Syrian regime of Bashar Assad has shown signs that it may be making chemical weapons material, CBS News national security correspondent David Martin reports.
The official told Martin that there are indications Assad's regime has issued orders to combine the necessary ingredients to make the material that are usually stored separately.
"There is concern Syria is making chemical weapons material ready for use," a senior U.S. official separately told Martin.
Both officials spoke on the condition of anonymity.
The officials spoke after reports surfaced that U.S. and allied intelligence have detected Syrian movement of chemical weapons components in recent days.
A senior U.S. defense official told The Associated Press Monday that intelligence officials have detected activity around more than one of Syria's chemical weapons sites in the last week. The defense official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly about intelligence matters.
In Washington, White House spokesman Jay Carney warned that Syrian use of chemical weapons would cross a "red line" for the United States, CBS Radio News correspondent Peter Maer reports. U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton reiterated the same warning earlier in Prague.
Carney voiced increased concern at the White House about Syria's chemical weapons stockpiles and that Assad's "increasingly beleaguered regime" might be considering using those weapons against Syrians.
"We believe that with the regime's grip on power loosening, with its failure to put down the opposition through conventional means, we have an increased concern about the possibility of the regime taking the desperate act of using its chemical weapons," Carney said.
Syria said it would never use chemical weapons against its own people. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Damascus said Monday that Syria "would not use chemical weapons — if there are any — against its own people under any circumstances."
Syria has been careful never to confirm that it has any chemical weapons.
Also Monday, the United Nations ordered its non-essential international staff to leave Syria because of an increase in security threats around its capital of Damascus. As many as 25 of its 100 workers could be pulled from the country this week, according to a U.N. statement.
In the Czech Republic capital, Clinton wouldn't comment on the reports of recent activity, nor would she give any hints as to what action the U.S. might take if that "red line" was crossed, CBS News correspondent Margaret Brennan reports.
The Syrian government has denied even possessing chemical or biological weapons, but is believed to have significant stockpiles. The possibility that the Assad regime could use the weapons, or lose control of them, has been a cause of serious concern for the U.S. and other nations since Syria's Arab Spring uprising descended into civil war.
Speaking to reporters, Clinton declined to say how the U.S. would react in the event of "credible evidence" that the Assad regime intended to use, or had used them.
"We are certainly planning to take action if that eventuality were to occur," she told reporters. Clinton made the comments in response to a question about whether there was any new evidence that the regime intended to use its stash of chemical weapons internally or cross-border. She did not directly address those reports.
Clinton drew a distinction between what she called the Assad regime's "reprehensible" behavior and violence in the conflict thus far, and the potential use of chemical weapons against the Syrian people or other nations.
"There is a line between the horrors that they've inflicted on their own people and what would be an internationally condemned step of utilizing their weapons," she said.
The threat of chemical weapons and efforts to interdict them was one of the topics of conversation during an hourlong meeting Monday between Clinton and Czech Foreign Minister Karel Schwarzenberg, who hosted a European conference on the issue last month.
Another source familiar with the matter said the Czech Republic has a battalion that specializes in the "mitigation" of biological and chemical hazards. The U.S. has worked with the Czechs in Libya to try and control the chemical weapons which were held by toppled dictator Muammar Qaddafi, and has already begun contingency planning for Syria.

Newport teen sets sights on radio career
4:30pm Friday 19th July 2013 in Gwent news
A NEWPORT teenager is setting his sights on London's major radio stations this summer after years of successful presenting in Wales.
George McDonagh, 18, from St Julians, presents 'The Mainstream Mix Up' to up to 20,000 listeners every Wednesday on the volunteer-run Newport City Radio, and last season did live commentaries on several Newport County games – all while studying for his A-Levels at St Julian's School.
"It started in Year 10 when I e-mailed the radio station asking for work experience," explained George, who is expected to achieve an A-grade in his English literature and maths A-Levels and a distinction in BTEC media.
"That summer we did a bit of travelling and I listened to the radio then and got into it. The radio station manager suggested I start early and I was there for six months before my work experience.
"I learned about production before reading things out on air and it snowballed from there. St Julian's has been a massive encouragement to me. It first helped me to get my work experience in Newport City Radio and has helped me since then," he said.
George was also inspired in his love of music by his father Chris, who was the bassist in the band The Darling Buds in the 80s and early 90s.
Now he has been offered a place studying media and radio production at his first choice, Westminster University in London, and would like to work for TalkSport or Radio 1.
"I think I'll start on the student radio station and perhaps volunteer at one of the stations which is local to where I'll be," he said.

FGCU, who was picked to finish 10th in the A-Sun Conference, opens with Southeastern University who already has 12 games under their belt.
Southeastern has won the last three NCCAA II National Champions and finished 48-17 last year with a 20-1 record in the South Region Florida Sun Conference. The Fire evened their record on Tuesday with a 5-4, 11 inning win over Edward Waters.
The Eagles return 15 letterwinners from last season's 40-17 team that advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the second consecutive year. Along with the returners, the Eagles welcome 19 newcomers. Of the returners, FGCU includes eight starters from a year ago as well as five of the top seven pitchers. The Eagles will open the season with left-handed Richard Bleier (Davie, Fla.) receiving the nod on the mound. Casey Coleman (Cape Coral, Fla.) and Richie Erath (Lake Worth, Fla.) are expected to start Saturday's double-header. All three games will be broadcast live on ASun.TV. Individual games can be purchased for $5.95 while a monthly pass can be purchased for $9.95.

In this time of indecent management and irritable emptiness, I know how you're all feeling. It may be a good time to look ahead a little ways, I'm talking Ufc on Fuel TV 5: Struve vs Miocic. The card is featuring bouts in all weight classes except for the lineup-less Flyweight Division.
The Co-Main event will hold, what will likely be a stand up brawl in the Welterweight Division between two warriors that favor Muay Thai, Dan Hardy and Amir Sadollah, as well as another match with Duane "Bang" Ludwig and Che "Beautiful" Mills. Both Matches are easily expected to be war on their feet!
The Bout I am looking forward to the most may be surprising to some, but the "expected" fight between Fabio Maldonado and Newcomer Jorgen Kruth is intriguing. Maldonados last fight with Igor Pokrajac was one of the most back and forth battles I've had the pleasure to watch recently.
Jorgen Kruth was supposed to make his UFC debut at Ufc on Fuel TV 2 in a "would have been" war against
Cyrille Diabaté. But pulled out with an injury. Kruth, A Swedish Heavyweight Kickboxer, pitted against the eruptive, yet technical boxing of Fabio Maldonado...
Hold it right there!
Another scheduled stand-off between Brad "One Punch" Pickett and Yves Jabouin is also set to take place, two strikers who are known for their stand up. Pickett with the balls out swinging, Jabouin had an absolute insane fight with Mark "The Machine" Hominick back at WEC 49, assures me that Brad Pickett is just the matchup to clone that battle and reveal it Live on Fuel!
Are you at all interested in the card?

6 News Anchor/Reporter
KNOXVILLE (WATE) - While Christmas may be behind us, the Christmas spirit is still alive and well, as one young lady from Karns demonstrates.
Her name is Kaitlyn Dowling, but she's known as the "Halo Girl" and at the tender age of 17, the Karns High School senior is already a Children's Hospital veteran.
"She showed up at the age of 14 with a portfolio. We've had lots of great kids who show up during the summer, but I remember Kaitlyn showing up and handing me her portfolio of all the things she wanted to do," said Cheryl Allmon, the volunteer director at the hospital.
She's known as the "Halo Girl," because of the halos she makes with tinsel and ribbons. Each one is a labor of love. Each one leaving a smile and an angel in its wake.
She began making halos on her first day as a volunteer. She was given a bag of arts and crafts and the halos seemed like a no-brainer.
"Me being myself, I said, 'Princess hats? Sweet!' and so I was so happy all that summer and all I did was halos and I've been known as the Halo Girl ever since," Dowling said.
And while halos may be her trademark, it's her compassion and brightness that children notice.
"Kaitlyn goes into every situation wanting to know what she can do to make it better," Allmon said. "If she sees a child who's hurting, Kaitlyn wants to brighten it up. She doesn't want anyone to be sad. She doesn't do it for Kaitlyn, but because she wants to see everyone happy."
Kaitlyn plans to enter college next year. Her goal is to one day be a pediatric oncologist.
Her experience at Children's has reinforced her desire to work with children who are going through difficult times.
"It's good to see that kids are happy and they're not sad and not down or crying," she said. "And it's good to see their viewpoint on life, because when you see them smile, it makes me smile more because you know what they're going through."
Kaitlyn's volunteerism and outlook on life is truly an example of the spirit of East Tennessee.
If you know someone who you believe is an example of the Spirit of East Tennessee, e-mail me at email@example.com.

1f. Install the 9V battery clip and
mark a plus sign for the red wire and
a minus sign for the black wire.
1g. Install the 10 resistor and the
0.047µF capacitor. Take advantage
of the "proto rows" to make the
• Chip pin 5 to one leg of the 10
• The other leg of the 10 resistor
to one leg of the 0.047µF capacitor.
• The other leg of the 0.047µF capacitor to "ground."
For our purposes "ground," which is
shown on the schematic as a triangle
with the point down, is the long "proto
row" we marked with a minus sign.
1h. Use this same technique to install
and make connections.
1i. Solder the wires to the phone
jack. Use green for signal and black
for ground.
1j. Install the wired phone jack to
the circuit. You should end up with
something that looks like the photo
to the far right here.
1k. Cut the red lead and install
the switch.
TIP: Every time you
install a part or make a
connection, mark it off

With all the discussion of the Leafs acquiring late rounds and their value I thought that I would go back and have a look at who has been drafted in the later rounds. I started at the 4th round and with the year 2000 because I'm lazy, also I'm not going to bother to list every player of some significance (no offense to Travis Moen).
Name (round selected)
Lubomir Visnovsky (4th)
John-Michael Liles (5th)
Henrik Lundqvist (7th)
Christian Ehrhoff (4th)
Kyle Wellwood (5th)
Kevin Bieksa (5th)
Dennis Seidenberg (6th)
Marek Zidlicky (6th)
Ryane Clowe (6th)
Brooks Laich (6th)
Cristobal Huet (7th)
David Moss (7th) but was last years 39 pts a fluke?
Marek Svatos (7th)
Ian White (6th)
Maxime Talbot (8th)
Dennis Wideman (8th)
Jonathan Ericsson (9th)
Staffan Kronwall (9th)
Kyle Quincey (4th)
Lee Stempniak (5th)
John Mitchell (5th)
Tobias Enstrom (8th)
Jaroslav Halak (9th)
Tyler Kennedy (4th)
Kris Versteeg (5th)
Mikhail Grabovski (5th)
Brandon Yip (8th) 11 goals, 18 pts in 26 games could turn out pretty good
Pekka Rinne (8th)
Sergei Kostitsyn (7th)
Anton Stralman (7th)
James Reimer (4th)
Viktor Stalberg (6th)
Luca Caputi (4th)
Keith Aulie (4th)
Carl Gunnarsson (7th)
ok, so I went back and did 1999 because what list of late round draft picks shouldn't include Zetterberg.
Ryan Malone (4th)
Ryan Miller (5th)
Martin Erat (7th)
Henrik Zetterberg (7th)
Radim Vrbata (7th)
Garnet Exelby (8th)
Jeff Finger (8th)
So, maybe I included some players I might not have originally planned on including but I could have fluffed up the list even more if I wanted. Some were included because they are/were Leafs or that I'd had them in a Fantasy Pool at some time. I also might have missed some players because my screen started to blur after a while or was that my eyes?
Obviously, not as many players are listed from recent drafts because perhaps they are still developing or haven't been given the opportunity to showcase their skills at the NHL level, or perhaps they play in markets they just don't get enough attention so I haven't heard of them.
Some thoughts I'd like to hear everyone's opinion on
Are drafts as deep talent wise as they used to be? Or is having a 7th rounder develop into an Henrik Lundqvist or Henrik Zetterberg considered an anomaly? Consider that for every Henrik Lundqvist there's probably a dozen Mike Brodeur's, Brian Elliot's, or Mike Smith's that have been drafted that late, but probably a hundred Curtis McElhinney's and Paul Flache's.
How would you rate the Leafs draft history?
Would you say the bigger problem is with our scouting or with our development?
Thanks for reading.

The Genographic Project is probably the largest genetic genealogy project in the world. For $99, the project will sequence seqments of either your mtDNA or your Y chromosome for addition into their publicly available database. The goal of the project, with ten research centers around the world, is to "map humanity's genetic journey through the ages," and to "address anthropological questions on a global scale using genetics as a tool." There has been a huge response to this project, and they just released their first research paper using the results they have collected to date:
"Family Tree DNA is proud to announce that the first paper resulting from data collected through the Genographic Project has been published today at the PLOS GENETICS. "The Genographic Project Public Participation Mitochondrial DNA Database†can be found at http://genetics.plosjournals.org and it will be uploaded to the Family Tree DNA public library as well.
The paper resulted from the collaboration of the Genographic Project Scientific Team, Family Tree DNA Genomics Research Center, and the IBM Data Analytics Research Group.â€
This paper is all about the mtDNA sequences they have obtained through the project. In the first 18 months of the project, they have collected an amazing 78,590 mtDNA genotypes!! In the paper, … Click to read more!

Augusta commissioners voted Monday to fire City Administrator Fred Russell.
During a closed-door meeting, commissioners voted 7-0 to terminate Russell effective Dec. 31.
Russell spoke to media after the announcement.
"It's not about Fred Russell," Russell said. "It's about a management style and a change in direction."
"I think each one of these people would tell you Fred Russell has some great points and Fred Russell has some issues - just like anybody else."
Some commissioners say they've wanted to give Russell the ax for a long time.
"It's been a lot of stuff. It's not just one or two things," Commissioner Marion Williams said. "This has been going on for quite some time and this is no surprise."
"You don't be arrogant with your employer," Commissioner Bill Lockett said. "There are certain expectations, and what I wanted was a very smooth transition. I wanted him to go out on very good terms, but he chose not to. This has been a long time coming."
But not all commissioners were in on this.
"The immediacy of this announcement has caught several of us off guard," Commissioner Donnie Smith said. "I was certainly not here for the vote so I don't know all the information. I don't know what was brought out that led to this."
There were very little specifics given by what triggered the termination, but standing in front of the very people that voted to release him from his position, Russell said he is content with the change.
"I don't disagree," he said. "It's time for some new ideas, some new vision and mainly some new energy."

The Panama City Community Redevelopment Agency is hoping to reinvent A.D. Harris Learning Village by moving their offices from Jenks Avenue to right here on campus. The CRA is making themselves right at home in their new location. Complete with boxes, signs, and more boxes
"So we have to kind of like detach, unplug, and move everything," said Toni Shamplain with the CRA. "Now, we have to re-plug, readjust, and get back to it."
And not only does the organization have a new digs, but they've added a few other housekeeping items as well.
"We have a new position that we've brought on," said Shamplain. "That is a document specialist and that young lady is going to make sure that we stay organized as it relates to the critical documents in our organization."
Shamplain says the move will also serve as a solution to some issues facing them at A.D. Harris. The ability to be on site property owners gives a certain sense of security to future tenants.
"It really makes the ground level because if they see us commit then they are willing to commit," said Shamplain.
Although CRA employees aren't finished unpacking just yet the offices are currently open for business. The A.D. Harris Learning Village is located on 11th Street just east of Martin Luther King Boulevard.

1. You May Not be Using the Right Shampoo/Conditioner
2. Learn to Properly Shampoo Your Hair
3. Your Scalp Needs Conditioned
4. Invest in a Great Brush
Regular hair brushing is a great way to stimulate your scalp, move the oils from your scalp through your hair, and keep your hair tangle free. How long have you had the brush that you use everyday? Where did you get it? I don't think many of us can answer those questions. I know one of the brushes I still have was purchased for all of a few dollars, is made of hard plastic, and followed me out the door of my parents house after high school. It's not really doing anyone any favors. Invest in a nice, natural boar bristle brush or a brush with a boar bristles incorporated. They aren't cheap, but they will last for years, and you'll thank me for the improvement in your hair's condition. Here are a few to check out:
- Mason Pearson Brushes (one of the best on the market, in my opinion)
- Boar Bristle Brushes by Farouk
- Bass Professional Natural Brushes
5. The Heat is On
I know I sound like a record on repeat, but the heat from your hair appliances are not hair or scalp friendly. Think about it. Many of us are guilty of having the hair dryer on to full blast heat inches from your scalp for five to ten minutes everyday. Would you do the same to your face. You likely wouldn't consider it. I know time is of the essence, but turning down the heat and moving the hair dryer away from your scalp can mean a world of difference when it comes to thinning or damaged hair. Let your hair air dry naturally for as long as you can. Have some coffee, apply your makeup, check your email, or eat breakfast before you get the hair dryer out. Then when you do, try a lower heat setting. You'll reduce frizz and improve the health of your scalp.
As if the heat from the hair dryer wasn't enough, after drying many of us get the flat iron or curling iron out. With temperatures exceeding 300 degrees, it's easy to imagine that repeated use could cause your hair to break from heat damage. Broken, damaged hair can feel thin, dry, and course. Try turning the heat down on your hot tools.
Better yet? Take a break from heat styling all together. Extend your shampoos or use your hair's natural air-dried texture from time to time.
6. DeGunk Your Tresses
Melissa Baldwin
If you read any of my advice on a regular basis, you'll repeatedly read something about removing product build up. Mousses, gels, dry shampoos, shine serums, volumizing sprays, hair sprays, defrizzing agents, heat protecting sprays, leave-in conditioners... you get the idea. The products we put on our hair are making their way to our scalps and, if your hair is having problems, it's likely causing pores and follicles to clog. Gummed up hair follicles just can't produce beautiful thick, healthy hair, if any hair at all. Your product build up could be the cause to your thinning and troubled hair. A regular deep cleansing/clarifying treatment is a must for all hair types. Here are a few recommendations to try:

Some additional material from a conversation with new UC Riverside softball coach Linda Garza:
(What did you see from across the field, when Cal Poly played UCR, that you can use now?)
"Well, definitely the biggest thing I've seen is that they steal bases. They run. They're somewhat used to that style. That's exactly who I am. That's exactly who I was when I was at Wright State."
(Even as a player at UNLV you played little ball, right?)
"Yup. Not necessarily the bunt and just kind of play station-to-station. It's more like, get on base, let's save the bunt and let's figure out how to get her over to second base with the steal, with the hit-and-run, with the fake bunt … anything that gives us one more out and allows that runner to score. I'm a huge proponent of putting pressure on the defense, see if we can expose some weaknesses. We're going to run ourselves out of some innings, maybe lose a ballgame here and there, but I just truly believe that you're going to win far more games playing than aggressive style than playing the conservative way."
(Talking to managers and coaches who believe in that style, they all say that taking chances like that puts everybody in the field on alert, and all it takes is one mistake because they're thinking about that runner going from first to third.)
"And you definitely get in the pitcher's head. There's nothing worse than if you give up a walk, and all of a sudden one pitch later that person's standing on second base and I still have zero outs. And now maybe they are gonna bunt to get her over to third and now they have two opportunities. But those little things to me, if you don't necessarily always have the best athletes in the country, it allows you to get to that even playing field, and now you have a chance."
(On recruiting … )
"… There's something to be said about people who want to be part of something special. Yeah, maybe we can go down the street to some top programs who have quite a few banners. How about the first one that was put up? Why can't we kind of create that? I mean, it started with something small and making something a little bit bigger, getting the community, the alumni. I want the community to be involved. I want it to be something we can all be proud of. And more importantly, I want their support. I want people to come out to games, and I want little girls … I grew up watching ballgames, and that's how the dream started. So for me it's about giving back to the game, giving back to the community, and having athletes who say, 'You know what? I want to play at UCR.' "
(How is this different from when you took over at Wright State?)
"A little bit different situation in that they had a little bit of success in the past. The hardest transition is that, having success, it's harder to want change because you've already had it. So you're trying to win over athletes at a different level because you're attempting to let them know: I want to go the same way, but I'm going to have to go a different route, because I have to go with my style and who I am. So once in a while you deal with a little 'I'm not sure,' or, 'That didn't work for me,' or, 'It used to work this way.'
"I truly believe that here the mission is, 'We want to win, too. Coach, what do you need us to do?' I truly believe that these athletes and this team and this program and this athletic department, they're ready to buy in. They're just ready for the right person to take them there. That's what I've told them on interviews: It's me. I know how to get it done. I believe in what we can do. I've seen the support that Mr. Wickstrom (athletic director Brian Wickstrom) has put forward into the softball program now. They're ready to take strides in the right direction and they're ready to make it a winner."
(It's almost like a clean slate, a blank canvas.)
"One hundred percent. It's really, truly what we want to make it. I'm a winner. Let's go out there. I have no problem being an underdog. People look at my size; I wasn't set up for everything to be easy. So why should it be easy for us? We don't have a target on us. Ours is figuring out who we want to take down first, and just going one by one. Honestly, truly, that starts day by day in practice, drill by drill, athlete by athlete, eventually evolving into game day, tournament time, conference time, and eventually let's take it to postseason."
(Now I've read some things and talked to one of your former players at Cal Poly about some of the unorthodox things you'll do during practice … making them take their shoes off during practice, just to mess with their comfort level a little bit.)
"I was fortunate enough that my degree and my background is in education, so the field is a classroom to me. It just so happens that it's around dirt, and we have a bat and a ball and a glove and we get to play. (It's) about sometimes switching it up on them, getting something that's a little bit different but ultimately an athlete, somebody younger, thinks its fun but we're still working on the same thing. So if it means once in a while, 'Hey, outfielders, take your shoes off, play in your bare feet today,' all of a sudden it's like you can hit a thousand balls to them that day and they're running them down, chasing them. Whereas if they had their cleats on it's, 'How many more buckets are we hitting?'
"Another example would be when I was at Wright State we were struggling a little bit, and I just felt like they were feeling the pressure. One day I went out to practice and I took out a wiffle ball, an old wiffle ball bat and ball, divided them up into four teams and we had a wiffle ball tournament, because I remember as a kid, that's truly what the game used to be. You used to go with your neighbors and draw a line, and if you hit it over a certain line it was a single. I feel athletics has kind of come away from that. It's become an enterprise. It's become money, and therefore I think athletes have really found, 'I want a scholarship, I want it to be perfect.' If we can get back to the core principles, to me, of just having fun, and while you're having fun you're learning, to me it's limitless. To me that's what athletics should still be about."
(You recruited down here for Cal Poly, I'm sure. What are some of the unique advantages/challenges of recruiting this area?)
"To me, especially now where the game has gone, you have to build relationships. In the Big West we have to build relationships. We don't have the big football (team) to draw, and to take them to a stadium that has 100,000 people. I have to remind athletes, 'What are you here to do? Are you here for the four games you can watch the football team in the fall, or are you here for the degree you can walk away (with), the ability to have your parents at every single one of your ballgames, to share that experience?' I mean, your parents have been watching you since the time you were 6 or 8 years old.
"Some athletes truly do want to get away, and as long as people know that up front … there are gonna be those athletes that say, 'I need to get away.'
"What I love about this area is the grittiness. This isn't the most beautiful area that some people would say, 'Oh, I want to go to the beach or I want to be at this.' It's no different than where I grew up. I grew up in Fresno. I grew up in a valley. There's heat. It's hot. You know what? It makes you a little tougher. So when you go out and play and your opponent's out here and they're used to 75 degree weather and it's 95, it's just another day in the ballpark. Let's go. This is to our advantage. So I really like that sort of attitude.
"I love the diversity. I love finding those athletes who maybe are first generation, who want to go to college and athletics is their way in, and being able as long as they meet the academic requirements to be able to provide, because usually what you'll find is that it's the close-knit family who wants the ability to watch their kid and to be able to see them develop. Granted, they will have no problem sending them off if someone's willing to pay for their education, but there's something to be said about family and being able to have that dynamic. My job is to go out and find those athletes.
"I want us to compete for a championship here. I want us finding a way to hang some banners. It can be a winner, and I want winners on there. So come on aboard and find a way. Let's get this done together."
(How important is it to build relationships with the community's high school coaches?)
"For here it's going to be very important. Softball-wise, most recruiting is done in travel ball. Being able, though, to see an athlete and still involve the high school coach is huge. The travel ball coach is only watching them for one month in the fall, and then three months in the summer. Now, granted, I'm recruiting in the summer and they may be my big phone calls. But my check-ins are the high school coaches. Why not check in? They're the ones who every day are going to tell me, 'Hey, not doing so well in school,' or, 'I've been noticing a few little things.' So that might be the inside to better get to know a little more about the athlete, aside from the athletic side. Blending those two, having assistants or myself that get out to a high school game and to show the community that, you know what, we don't only value what they do in August, we value what they're doing in April. And you know what, we may have just finished practice, but we're still out there and we're willing to put in the work.
"Right now where we're at, it's going to take more than an 8-to-5 job. It's going to take some digging, getting dirty. And I love that. That's how I played."
(Do you have a sense yet of who you want for your staff?)
"I have some very good leads of some individuals who would be very interested. I have some others that might have some interest and are still in a good position right now that maybe don't want to, but at the same time everybody dreams of coming back to California. I mean, you can look at my (situation). I left a great gig at Wright State. I had all the support, I was fortunate with everything they were providing me. One huge piece: I never got to share that with my family. So the dynamics, I know what that means. And having been away since I was 18, it took until I was 30 years old to find an opportunity, which meant stepping down professionally in some ways to go over to Cal Poly. And now I'm fortunate again that Brian and the entire athletic staff is ready to kind of hand it over and say, 'Go mold it. We want it to be a winner, mold it the way you want to.' "
(Was that a hard decision, to step down at Wright State in 2010, even given the opportunity to come back to California?)
"Yes. I did not make it easy. I got the phone call, we talked about it, and then I said, I've got to think about it. I'm not really sure if this is what I can do. Because I wasn't looking. When you go to posteason and you put together a conference run the way we did, and you put together the statistics and the accolades that we received, being able to win in the postseason, prior to a rain delay being ahead of Michigan three innings in, you get a sense of, my goodness, why can't we be like the Kent State you see in college baseball, or when Fresno State in 2008 won the baseball World Series? Gosh, maybe this is it, and you get that adrenalin rush and your professional side is a big smile.
"But when the dust settles and everything goes down, you still walk home and there's no one to share that excitement with as much as when you can call up your Dad or someone who's watched that game with you and they're saying, 'Let's go celebrate together.'
"Professionally, I knew I was going to take something of a hit. And by that I just mean, maybe not having the experience level when I went for that next head coaching job that somebody was maybe looking for. But I knew my heart was making the right decision. For the first time personally I was doing something where I got to not only do what I do, I got to share it with the people I love. And I felt like I kept doing what I do without the people I love around me, and that's not what it is for me in life."
(Parents still live in Fresno?)
"Still live in Fresno, and they have said they want a house behind me and to figure out a way that they can stay here as long as I need. But again, my entire family still resides in Fresno, so it's going to be one of those things that they're here all season, and I can still go home. As long as I can hop in a car and be home, it's home to me."
(Your view of the UCR facilities, the campus, etc.)
"I think there's a ton of things to sell here. The stadium, although it may not be the best out there, it's competitive with the Big West. And it's bigger than the facility. If there's athletes looking for the cosmetic, perfect intricacies of a program, this isn't for them. I can promise you that you're going to enjoy your experience, I can promise you that you're going to get a great, quality education. And I can promise that I'm going to make you the best softball player I can make you. So those things are something that you want to be a part of, and you want to win while you're doing all those things? This is the place for you."
(When this position came open, did you have any second thoughts at all?)
"Yeah, I'm gonna be honest, at the beginning I thought 'I'm not sure.' And that's because at the time I (wasn't sure) it could get to the position I now believe it can. And that's where I feel the athletic department, after I applied, when I got an opportunity to speak with the administration and they got to go through the interview process and explain what they were now trying to do with the program and they were ready to invest in it and put the time in, in other words put their money where their mouth is, all of a sudden to me it was like, why not? Why not want to be part of building something?
"It's easier to go in and take something that's halfway polished and finish off the pieces. But what about starting from scratch, and somebody saying, 'Hey, here's the canvas, we're giving you all the paint you need, we're giving you this and we're giving you the time. We're committed to this. We believe in what you can do and let's get it done.' Once we started having those sort of discussions, the question became, why not?"
(So you were interviewing them almost as much as they were interviewing you.)
"Definitely. When you go into a program that hasn't had as much success, and people always ask how come it hasn't, when you go into something like that you kind of want to know, OK, what are some reasons that we can iron out why? As an outsider you want to know why. In my opinion it takes a lot, from department support, from having the right leader and coach, having the right players. It takes a little bit of everything. And I really truly believe that what the administration and the university has here, and their support, they're saying, let's make something here. We're ready to do it, we're ready to make that commitment. And we want it to be you. And I couldn't be prouder."
(Where do you see this program in five years?)
"In an NCAA tournament. I truly do. I truly believe we can get ourselves in position in the Big West to compete for a conference title … It's tough. Every game matters. We have Hawaii coming in now,San Diego State coming in the following year. It's gonna get competitive. You have a little bit of a competitive edge in the fact that they have major Division I football that they can recruit to."
(Plus resources.)
"Absolutely. They're gonna have a different financial (edge). But my (take) is, how can Gonzaga's women's basketball team find their way in? How come Butler's basketball can find their way in? How (about) Appalachaian State, that went and beat Michigan (in football) a few years ago … they're out there. The underdog story is there. It's a matter of getting the right kids, the right coach, the support from the administration. 'Is that what you need? I may not be able to get you all of it but I'm gonna be able to get you the tools in your toolshed that you can build something.
"And I again firmly believe that this is the direction we're going. It's not going to be easy. It could happen overnight. Things happen in sports that it could take one year and completely turn around and we can be where we want to be. In my opinion, it's going to be block by block and we're going to get where we need to be."

Past publications: Sustainable Development Indicators in Your Pocket
The new Measuring progress: sustainable development indicators 2010 replaces Sustainable development indicators in your pocket (SDIYP) which has been produced annually as a printed publication since 2004.
SDIYP has been extremely successful, with a printed circulation of 40,000 to 60,000 copies per year. Meanwhile take-up of the downloadable version has increased substantially and the 2009 edition was downloaded over 300,000 times. The new Measuring progress publication is only available to download.
The pocket-sized SDIYP has been been highly influential in the way indicators are presented here in the UK and it has been emulated extensively internationally. It has proved particularly popular with schools and colleges, but is also taken up by a wide range of stakeholders, including local authorities, non-governmental organisations and members of the public.
Between 2004 and 2009, the annual report of national sustainable development indicators was published as the Sustainable Development Indicators in Your Pocket booklet. Past editions can be accessed as pdf downloads from the National Archives:

Judge: Ariz. sheriff's office profiles Latinos
PHOENIX (AP) — A federal judge ruled Friday that the office of America's self-proclaimed toughest sheriff systematically singled out Latinos in its trademark immigration patrols, marking the first finding by a court that the agency racially profiles people.
The 142-page decision by U.S. District Judge Murray Snow in Phoenix backs up allegations that Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio's critics have made for years that his officers rely on race in their immigration enforcement.
Snow also ruled Arpaio's deputies unreasonably prolonged the detentions of people who were pulled over.
A small group of Latinos alleged in a lawsuit that Arpaio's deputies pulled over some vehicles only to make immigration status checks.
The group also accused the sheriff of ordering some immigration patrols not based on reports of crime but rather on letters and emails from Arizonans who complained about people with dark skin congregating in an area or speaking Spanish. The group's attorneys pointed out that Arpaio sent thank-you notes to some people who wrote the complaints.
The sheriff has repeatedly denied the allegations, saying his deputies only stop people when they think a crime has been committed and that he wasn't the person who picked the location of the patrols. His lawyers also said there was nothing wrong with the thank-you notes.
Cecillia D. Wang, director of the ACLU Immigrants' Right Project, called the ruling a "great day for all the people of Maricopa County."
Arpaio's lead attorney Tim Casey was reading Snow's decision Friday afternoon before commenting on it.
The sheriff, known for jailing inmates in tents and making prisoners wear pink underwear, started doing immigration enforcement six years ago as Arizona voters grew frustrated with the state's role as the nation's busiest illegal entryway.
The ruling represents a victory for those who pushed the lawsuit. They weren't seeking money damages but a rather declaration that Arpaio's office racially profiles and an order that requires it to make policy changes. The sheriff won't face jail time or fines as a result of the ruling.
Wait, a Sheriff in a southwestern state close to the Mexican border that's polluted with illegal immigrants coming over the border is accused of targeting Latinos. What should he go after, guys wearing tukes drinking molsons? Nice move judge, your a moron.
Is the sheriff the last elected official actually trying to do the job of protecting the people who elected him? I am not gonna say I am sorry for feeling if you are looking for illegal Mexicans than you should stop Mexicans. What a novel approach to problem....political correctness be damned!
Its about time the Judiciary got off their asses and did something to check that megalomaniac.

August 6, 2002
Another round of vandals hit close to two dozen stores and cars in Thomasville. Thomasville Police Detective Bob Sise says, "We are not sure, but we feel like these incidents are related. "
Last week, bricks crashed into windows, but this week it's something new. In one day, vandals have smashed at least 23 store and car windows. The vandalism is happening during the early morning hours in Thomasville.
Police have not caught up with the culprits, but hope they're close to wrapping up some cases. The vandals are making store owners angry, and keeping glass repair shops busy.
Broken glass around Thomasville store fronts and a line of cars waiting to be repaired, leftovers of vandals. Detective Sise explains, "I think this is the biggest amount of volume in the shortest amount of time."
At least 23 cars and stores in one day, Hoyt's Cycle Shop was just one of the many hit. Worker Jeremy Reynolds says, "I think they are a bunch of crazy kids going around tearing up things for fun." Reynolds found one piece of evidence. He says, "We found a little ball bearing so we figured it might be something with a sling shot just shooting them."
The same story in several other stores. Rose City Glass Owner Bud Stringer says, "Indications from looking at glass. It's definitely an impact of a ball bearing or something of that nature."
Thomasville Sales had two big windows smashed on two separate days. But, they didn't have to go far to get help, they're next door neighbors with Rose City Glass. Stringer explains, "It's been quite a big number. We've been swamped trying to get people secured."
Since Monday morning, Rose City Glass has repaired six store windows and 12 car windows. Stringer says, "Probably in the past few days we have tripled work load as far as automotive glass over normal."
Glass is being shipped in as quick as possible for cars, but many store owners have to wait another week for their special orders.
Investigators say the damage is so much, the vandals could face felony charges.

Music and Speeches from RSC's Richard II Available on CD Oct. 18
By Carey Purcell
Music and speeches from The Royal Shakespeare Company's production of Richard II are available for purchase on CD and from iTunes beginning Oct. 18.
The recording is the first in a series capturing some of the live and specially commissioned music composed for RSC productions of all Shakespeare's plays.
The CD contains Paul Englishby's original music composed for Richard II. It also features music from the 1913 production by Ralph Vaughan Williams from the RSC's archive, music that has not been heard since the production's performance.
The CD also includes key speeches from the play featuring David Tennant in the title role, Jane Lapotaire as the Duchess of York and Michael Pennington as John of Gaunt.
"Our ambition is to try to capture at least some of the specially created music (which is always performed live for our productions), along with speeches that give a flavour of the performance," RSC artistic director Gregory Doran said in a statement. "We also want to include archive recordings of some of the most talented composers of the 20th Century that we have commissioned to score our productions. Our archive includes not only Ralph Vaughan Williams, but many exciting talents from Lennox Berkeley and Django Bates to Laura Marling."
Vaughan Williams composed music for Frank Benson's production, which was performed 100 years ago in Stratford-upon-Avon and has remained in the RSC's archives since then. He worked with Benson for the 1913-14 season and also composed music for The Merry Wives of Windsor and Henry V.
Richard II began performances Oct. 10 and continues through Nov. 16.
The next albums will feature music from Gregory Doran's forthcoming productions of Shakespeare's Henry IV, Parts I and II and The Two Gentlemen of Verona, directed by Simon Godwin. These productions will play in the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in repertoire in 2014.
The album is released on CD and for download Oct. 18. Visit the RSC online shop at www.rsc.org.uk/shop/item/62328-richard-ii-music--speeches-cd-2013.
The track list follows:
1. Lacrimosa (Englishby)

Health & Safety Essentials: Occupational Health
Health & Safety Essentials Part 5 - Occupational Health
In recent times, it has been found that incidents of stress have significantly increased. The HSE have published "Management Standards" for work-related stress which state that if stress is not properly managed, the possible results may include poor health and well-being for employees, lower productivity and potentially; increased sickness absence.
The Management Standards cover the 6 primary sources of stress at work:
- Demands - the workload, work patterns and work environment
- Control - how much control the employee has in the way they can undertake their work
- Support - the sponsorship, encouragement and resources provided by managers and colleagues in the workplace
- Relationships - how unacceptable behaviour is handled and promoting positive working
- Role - whether employees have conflicting roles and whether employees understand their role within the firm
- Change - how organisational change is managed and communicated in the firm
The HSE recommend that employers regularly undertake risk assessments for individual employees, allowing a good assessment of the current working situation. Employers should work with employees, building relationships and trust and decide on practical improvements that can be made.
You must educate your employees about the health risks that may affect them at work, not just the obvious injuries that could occur, but other less obvious health issues. You must take practical steps to alleviate this risk as much as is reasonably practicable.

What Participants Are SayingBeing a part of the internship program has enriched both my experience with the community and my practice. It opened up a new world of learning and conversation that I know will have an lifelong impact. The internship program is an intimate way to experience the Sangha, offering the opportunity to learn with and from one another.~R
Being part of the internship program was a valuable experience. It allowed me to increase my volunteering opportunities at the Center. I became very comfortable with the group and working with the other interns, and we were able to work together to support the Center and learn more about its inner-workings. The leadership component, along with the mentoring, gave me confidence to apply the principles of Shambhala to the other areas of my life where I am a leader, and to approach those situations differently, and more thoughtfully than I had in the past.~M

Fan opinion on the upcoming Dead Space 3 is split, but the game has one new feature that I think we can all agree is, well, interesting at least — the game will monitor your dirty sinful language.
If you play the game on an Xbox 360 with a Kinect attached, they game will keep track of your swearing and reward you for it. The world of Dead Space 3 will react to your sass mouth — hurling abuse at a piece of machinery that isn't working may cause it to start faster for instance. Turns out your dad's method of fixing the lawnmower, and kitchen sink and, well, pretty much anything was sound after all.
Hmmm, I wonder if context will be taken into account? Will "Oh s–t this game is scary!" have the same effect as "Oh s–t, what has EA done to Dead Space?!" I guess we shall see.
I want more like this!
