VA forming cadre of specially-trained acquisition workers
Ford Heard, the Veterans Affairs associate deputy assistant secretary for Procurement Policy, Systems and Oversight, said his office will launch the acquisition corps and program management framework in the coming months to further professionalize the agency's acquisition workforce. A Federal News Radio survey of chief acquisition officers and other senior acquisition managers says workforce training and retention remain among their biggest priorities and challenges.

Senators press Army on suspension and debarment delays
A bipartisan group of senators has written to top Army officials to express concern about delays in the suspension and debarment process that leave the service open to contracting waste and fraud. In a letter to Army Secretary John McHugh and Chief of Staff Raymond Odierno, the senators questioned "significant time lapses" between referrals for suspension and actual debarment of contractors in Afghanistan.

BP temporarily suspended from new federal contracts
The Environmental Protection Agency said BP's "lack of business integrity" in its conduct and response following the Deepwater Horizon oil spill weighed into its decision to temporarily suspend the company from obtaining new federal contracts.

Suspension, debarment numbers don't tell full story
Despite mounting pressure from certain quarters of the government and Congress to more aggressively suspend and debar irresponsible contractors, some agencies only rarely, if ever, do so. Rob Burton, the former acting administrator of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy, said data on suspensions and debarments isn't always an apples-to-apples comparison.

Acquisition executives figuring out how to deal with budget woes
A Federal News Radio exclusive survey of chief acquisition officers and senior procurement executives showed most are not preparing for budget cuts or sequestration.

We hear from Steven Shaw, the Air Force's deputy general counsel for contractor responsibility, and Normand Lussier, DLA's associate general counsel for contracting integrity.

Suspension, debarment a 'business decision' for agencies
Agencies are using suspensions and debarments more often as a way to stop or prevent doing business with contractors who lie, cheat or just do shoddy work. David Sims, chairman of the Interagency Suspension and Debarment Committee and a suspension and debarment manager at the Interior Department, gives an overview of the use of suspension and debarment governmentwide.

AnatomyThe carpal tunnel is a passage in the wrist through which tendons and nerves pass from the forearm to the hand. The median nerve, which provides feeling to the thumb, index, and middle fingers, runs through the carpal tunnel.
Any inflammation or narrowing of the tunnel may cause nerve irritation, as the carpal tunnel is normally quite narrow to begin with.
Causes of carpal tunnel syndromeThere are many causes of carpal tunnel syndrome but the most common is overuse irritation to the nerve and tendons. Other factors such as arthritis and fractures near the wrist, diabetes, and pregnancy may also cause carpal tunnel syndrome.
Symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome• Burning, tingling, or numbness of the thumb, index, and middle fingers• Symptoms may be greater when waking up• Difficulty making a fist and gripping objects
In addition to X-rays, nerve tests may be performed to assist in the diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome.
Following these simple tips can prevent carpal tunnel syndrome and other overuse injuries of the wrist and hand:• Avoid sustained extreme wrist positions• Keep your wrist in a "neutral" position• Support your forearm while using a keyboard• Avoid excessive direct pressure on the palm• Avoid excessive gripping• Take frequent breaks and move your wrist and hand to different positions
When to seek medical attention:• Symptoms do not go away with periods of rest• Symptoms interfere with daily work and recreational activities
Non-surgical care• Activity modification• Anti-inflammatory medication• Use of a wrist splint• Cortisone injection
Surgical careSurgery may be necessary in patients who do not improve with non-surgical care. Carpal tunnel surgery involves cutting a ligament in the wrist to relieve pressure on the nerve within the carpal tunnel. Your physician can provide you with more details concerning your recovery after surgery.Common Hand and Wrist ProceduresCarpal Tunnel ReleaseTrigger Finger ReleaseWrist Arthroscopy

Wall Street Journal Reporter Sparks Controversy with YA Readers
Wall Street Journal reporter Meghan Cox Gordon criticized themes of "explicit abuse, violence and depravity" in YA fiction over the weekend. As of this writing, her controversial essay has received 71 comments and 152 responses on Facebook.
Here's more from the article: "Now, whether you care if adolescents spend their time immersed in ugliness probably depends on your philosophical outlook. Reading about homicide doesn't turn a man into a murderer; reading about cheating on exams won't make a kid break the honor code. But the calculus that many parents make is less crude than that: It has to do with a child's happiness, moral development and tenderness of heart. Entertainment does not merely gratify taste, after all, but creates it."
What do you think? The YA community responded with scores of online essays and the #YAsaves twitter hashtag. Below, we've listed tweets from several popular YA authors. The video embedded above features the band Tiger Beat performing their musical homage to the genre "YA Song."

Welcome to Kyle, Texas – a great little city located just 22 miles South of Austin and 53 miles northeast of San Antonio.
Kyle was founded in the late 1800′s by townsfolk from the nearby villages of Mountain City and Blanco.
Kyle derives its name from Captain Fergus Kyle. His family, together with the family of David Moore donated about 200 cares of land to establish the town site around the time that the International and Great Northern Railroad first constructed a much needed rail line from Austin to San Antonio. With that, the city of Kyle was born!
Fast forward about 130 years and Kyle is now a thriving and successful community and the home to over 25,000 people as of the 2007 census. Contrast this with just over 5,000 people in the early 2000′s and it's easy to understand why Kyle is now the 5th fastest growing community in the entire State!
Kyle is the second largest city in Hays County and is strategically located close to major highways making it an easy access point for most major cities in Texas and a great place to live and conduct business.
If you are looking for an excellent place to make a living and raise a family in a great environment, then Kyle Texas is the place for you!

Place the first bracket in position (Image 1), and make marks to indicate where the edge of the bracket should be when the bracket is centered. Then place the bracket in proper position and secure it using brad nails and a finish-nail gun (Image 2). Fasten the bracket to both the porch post and spindle rail.
Caulk the seams to prevent water from getting underneath the newly installed brackets and causing rot. In some cases, the new brackets had to be scribed and trim to custom-fit the individual spaces on the porch. An extra 1/8" of width had been left on each bracket earlier to allow for this type of adjustment.

St. Patrick's Day
Find a Conversation

Do you do anything fun to celebrate? Dress green? Eat specific foods? What does your family do?

|Mon, 03-18-2013 - 5:56pm
Cute ideas, Tracy! What did you end up doing? I was a total bum and ended up not doing a darn thing. I kind of feel bad about that too! Time just really got away from me this year... Oh well, I guess I'll have to break out some crafts and other goodies for Easter.
|Thu, 03-14-2013 - 3:02pm
So since I was thinking about it I went out and got some green construction paper while at lunch, alone wtih some cleareanced St. Patrick's day plates and marshmallows. I think I'll add green food coloring to the icing of the cinnamon rolls DH bought the other night and we can have those for breakfast, maybe I'll make a play on green eggs and ham for lunch, and then the girls and I can make green rice krispie treats for an afternoon snack after nap time. Still thinking about a craft and I wonder if I can come up with some sort of four leaf clover hunt they can do outside to run off some steam while I am in cleaning. I'm going to have to research a bit more on that one.
|Thu, 03-14-2013 - 12:43pm
we don't really at all. I was thinking about doing a corned beef in the crock pot though, and maybe I can look up a craft project to keep the girls occupied for a bit on Sunday. Its supposed to be a beautiful 84 degrees on Sunday, so anything I can do to keep them outside as much as possible (so maybe I can clean the house...) would be great!

Mayor Steve Berman and one of his opponents, ex-Councilman David Petersen, filed nominating petitions for March's town ballot Monday, the first day they could do so.
Town Clerk Cathy Templeton said both men had turned in more than the minimum number of required signatures, but did not know their exact totals. Anyone running for Town Council must turn in between 240 and 480 signatures by Dec. 10.
At least 13 Gilbert residents have formed political committees to back a run for mayor or Town Council, which must be done before signatures are collected. Templeton said it might take a while for the rest of the potential candidates to show up: "Most of them will come in the last week."
Berman said he turned in somewhere between 650 and 700 signatures, despite a spate of bad publicity over the last year which cumulated in a very public split with his wife, with whom he has since reconciled.
"I had no trouble getting signatures, and everyone I talked to when I was going door to door was very positive," he said.
Petersen, who served one term on the council before being defeated in a runoff with now-Councilwoman Joan Krueger four years ago, said he turned in more than 600 signatures, collected by around 20 volunteer circulators.
A fiscal conservative and member of the National Rifle Association and John Birch Society, Petersen said he thinks he's gotten support from a fairly broad cross-section of petition signers.
"I'd say about half the people I talked to know me and are familiar with what I'm about, and 40 percent want Berman out and 10 percent were oblivious to what's going on in town," he said.
Petersen and Berman often were allies while on the council together, but "we kind of parted ways soon after I left the council," Petersen said.
The rift started with Petersen circulating a petition opposing a tough anti water-wasting ordinance that was passed, then rescinded by the council.
For his part, Berman said, "I have a huge amount of respect for Dave Petersen running against me because he's running against me for the right reasons. He announced two years ago he was going to try to take me out of office, while other people saw the perception of personal misfortune on my part and decided to take advantage of that."
Berman's wife accused him of domestic violence this summer, obtaining a restraining order which has since been dropped.
The mayor has also drawn criticism for using a truck donated to the town for his use and other actions.
He said he will run on a record of promoting business growth and a high quality of life, saying a just-released article in BusinessWeek magazine naming Gilbert the best place in Arizona to raise children offers further proof of his success.
There are at least three more potential mayoral challengers. Town Councilman Don Skousen said he has enough signatures to qualify, but more sheets have yet to be turned in to him by his supporters.
He said he hasn't had to collect any signatures for himself, because so many others are willing to do it for him.
"I have until Dec. 10 to turn them in and believe me, I will turn them in," he said.
Eric Hurley, a college student and GoDaddy customer service representative, said he has collected the minimum amount of required signatures but is gunning for more, and hopes to wrap his drive up after this weekend's Gilbert Days parade.
A fifth mayoral aspirant, Arizona Cardinals business executive Adam Turner, began collecting signatures last week.
The Town Council officially adopted the election schedule during its Tuesday meeting. Mayoral and council contests which are not decided with a majority of the vote in the March 10 primary will go on to a runoff at the May 19 general election.

Petrochemical Transportation Pain Is Kirby's GainPRO • Stephen Simpson, CFA • Thu, Aug. 7 • 1 Comment
- Kirby continues to post strong results as limited barge capacity and increasing crude oil and petrochemical production support good results in the marine business.
- Kirby is well-positioned to add capacity to match the expected growth in crude and refined product production, while the diesel business should improve on better fracking fundamentals.
- Kirby shares usually look expensive and continue to go up anyway and today's valuation is no exception.

Kirby Corporation Discusses Q3 2013 Results (Webcast)Oct. 28, 2013
Thu, Dec. 18, 11:59 AM
- Kirby Corp. (KEX -7%) sinks to 52-week lows after the barge operator cut its outlook for both Q4 and FY 2015, citing problems in its land-based diesel engine services market and weak demand related to falling oil prices.
- The reduction in revenue and profit in the land-based diesel engine services market, particularly in the manufacturing of new pressure pumping units, was the most significant factor in the change in Q4 expectations.
- FBR Capital lowers its stock target price to $100 from $145 but remains buyers, believing slower near-term growth already is reflected in the stock, and KEX has historically used these periods of dislocation to consolidate the market.
Wed, Dec. 17, 4:38 PM
- Kirby (NYSE:KEX) -6.2% AH after issuing downside guidance for Q4, now seeing EPS of $1.10-$1.20 vs. its prior outlook of $1.30-$1.40 and $1.35 analyst consensus estimate.
- For FY 2014, KEX sees EPS of $4.84-$4.94, below previously announced guidance of $5.04-$5.14.
- KEX says most of the change in guidance is due to a disappointing ramp-up in its land-based diesel engine services market, as falling crude oil prices have led to customer cancellations and requests to delay delivery of projects; also, bad weather along the Gulf coast has impacted Q4 performance in its marine transportation markets.
Wed, Dec. 3, 11:48 AM
- Kirby (KEX -1.6%) is downgraded to Hold from Buy at BB&T, urging investor caution until consensus estimates become more realistic and oil prices stabilize.
- The firm says Wall Street has not adjusted earnings to reflect a decline in United revenues and profitability as oilfield service capex slows; also, as the growth in rig and well counts slow along with oil production, it is possible that some of the excess barge capacity that has been dedicated to the oil trade could matriculate to the petrochemical market, which could hamper price and utilization.
Wed, Oct. 29, 5:28 PM
- Kirby (NYSE:KEX): Q3 EPS of $1.34 misses by $0.03.
- Revenue of $680.72M (+23.5% Y/Y) beats by $48.64M.
- Shares -0.04% AH.
- Press Release
Wed, Jul. 30, 5:16 PM
- Kirby (NYSE:KEX): FQ1 EPS of $1.31 beats by $0.01.
- Revenue of $628.05M (+11.4% Y/Y) beats by $13.95M.
- Press Release
Thu, May. 1, 5:58 PM
- After a harsh winter that delayed shipments, barge operator Kirby Corp. (KEX) expects strong demand and favorable pricing trends going forward amid booming North American oil production, CEO Joe Pyne said during today's earnings call.
- KEX says it will exercise an option to buy a second 185K bbl coastal articulated tank barge and 10K hp tugboat unit, as well as order two additional ATBs "as a result of consistently strong coastal tank barge demand, utilization and increasing pricing."
- KEX plans to spend ~$135M this year on the construction of 66 inland tank barges and one inland towboat that will add ~830K barrels of new capacity, and another $80M towards construction of the two 185 bbl ATBs.
- Shares rose 7.2% during regular trading after reporting a 9% Y/Y rise in Q1 earnings.
Wed, Apr. 30, 6:04 PM
- Kirby Corporation (KEX): Q1 EPS of $1.09 in-line.
- Revenue of $589.2M (+5.4% Y/Y) beats by $13.44M.
- Press Release
Mon, Apr. 21, 12:23 PM
- Genco Shipping (GNK) has filed for bankruptcy, Bloomberg reports, as weakness in charter rates for its dry-bulk cargo ships made it difficult for the company to pay its creditors; shares have been halted since the open.
- GNK reportedly listed assets of $2.4B and debt of $1.5B in a Chapter 11 filing.
- Other shippers on the radar: DRYS, PRGN, DSX, FREE, EGLE, NM, NMM, SBLK, KEX, SB, SINO, BALT, ESEA, DCIX, TEU, DAC, SHIP, SSW, GSL.
Thu, Mar. 27, 3:26 PM
- Resolving legal issues arising from the Galveston Bay oil spill that shut traffic at the Houston Ship Channel for days will require years of litigation and cost tens of millions of dollars, experts say.
- Kirby Corp. (KEX +0.3%), which owned and operated the barge that spilled 168K gallons of fuel after Saturday's collision, faces potential federal fines, cleanup costs and damage payments to residents and businesses.
- The U.S. government has notified Kirby that it is the responsible party for the spill under federal law; If the company believes other entities played a role in causing the spill, it would have to sue to seek reimbursement for a portion of any penalties or damages it pays.
Tue, Mar. 25, 12:18 PM
- The Houston Ship Channel has reopened to barge traffic only, three days after a barge collision dumped as many as 170K gallons of heavy oil into the water near Galveston; the barges are only able to move up and down the Channel, but not yet allowed to enter or leave.
- Most U.S. capacity to export natural gas liquids is on the Channel, energy consultant EnVantage says; two companies, Enterprise Products Partners (EPD +0.6%) and Targa Resources Partners (NGLS +0.5%), have channel operations that combine to represent 380K bbl/day of export capacity.
- The spill illustrates why the U.S. NGL industry needs to spread export capacity to other areas, says the general manager of midstream operations at Phillips 66 (PSX +1.5%), which is investing in an NGL export terminal in Freeport, ~30 miles from where the Channel opens to the Gulf of Mexico.
- It isn't the first spill for Kirby (KEX +0.1%), the tank barge operator involved in the collision, according to a report.
Mon, Mar. 24, 9:41 AM
- The Houston Ship Channel, which delivers crude oil for more than 10% of all U.S. refining capacity, is shut for a third day as the cleanup from a Saturday spill threatens to last through the week.
- A collision between a Kirby (KEX) Inland Marine oil barge and a cargo ship spilled ~4K barrels of residual fuel oil; now, 43 ships are waiting to go out from the port of Houston and 38 ships are waiting to come in.
- Exxon Mobil (XOM) says the closure has not yet affected operations at its 560K bbl/day refinery in Baytown, Tex., second largest in the U.S.; Marathon Petroleum (MPC) has not discussed operations at its 451K bbl/day Galveston Bay refinery and 80K bbl/day Texas City refinery.
Thu, Mar. 20, 11:13 AM
- Drybulk shipping rates are up big during past five weeks and rose again overnight.
- The Baltic Dry Index rose 3.2% overnight and has surged 49% since Feb. 12; the BDI has gained in 24 of the last 26 sessions, led by a 211% rise in capesize rates.
- Capesize rates climbed 6.9% (or $1,664/day) overnight to $25,659/day, while panamax rates rose $4/day to $9,019/day and supramax rates added 0.4% ($48/day) to $12,598/day.
- Related drybulk equities include DRYS, GNK, PRGN, DSX, FREE, ULTR, EGLE, NM, NMM, SBLK, KEX, SB, SINO, BALT, SHIP, DCIX.
Mon, Mar. 10, 10:48 AM
- Kirby Corp. (KEX -1.1%) is added to the Top Picks list at FBR Capital, which notes KEX's core marine transportation unit continues to exhibit solid growth, driven by the transport of petrochemicals, black oil and refined products, and the firm expects demand for these volumes to only accelerate over the next three years.
- FBR thinks fundamentals driving KEX's diesel engine services unit bottomed in 2013, and it expects the segment to be a major contributor to earnings growth in 2014 and beyond.
- While expecting steady, consistent growth in the marine business, the firm says it "would not be surprised" to see growth juiced by M&A activity in the near term, particularly in the coastal barge market.
Fri, Jan. 31, 3:31 PM
- Kirby (KEX +2.6%) continues to push higher after Q4 results showed continued strong demand for liquids transportation, keeping financial performance in the upper level of expectations despite weather challenges and continued headwinds for the engine service business.
- FBR Capital remains bullish on the near- and long-term outlook following the earnings call; 2014 guidance looks very achievable given that the levers are pricing and utilization in the coastal market and a slight rebound in diesel engine services, both of which firm expects to be robust in 2014 (Briefing.com).
Wed, Jan. 29, 5:06 PM
- Kirby Corporation (KEX): Q4 EPS of $1.13 in-line.
- Revenue of $568.4M (+10.9% Y/Y) beats by $13.65M.

This sounds like a blower resistor to me as well. The 4th, highest setting bypasses the control resistor and that is why it works. I found a web page that explains how to replace it if you're up to it. hope this helps

Top-ranked recipe named "Chicken Tikka Masala"
Chicken Tikka Masala is a popular dish in many Indian restaurants. Supposedly this dish was created in a Glasglow Scotland restaurant when a customer ordered some Chicken Tikka and thought it was too dry. He ordered some gravy to go along wth the dish. The chef complied and made a sauce from tomato soup, yoghurt, and spices. The story isn't proven ...but the dish has become very popular. It even became Britain's "true national dish".
We really liked this dish. Feel free to adjust seasoning to your own taste. Add more cream if you like. We served it with some homemade Indian flatbread...Paratha[Sidu's recipe~a Bigoven member]. You can also serve it with some homemade Naan bread.
"I would have thought it next to impossible to recreate CTM at home. This recipe nails it. This is definitely restaurant quality stuff. The whole process takes a bit of time, but it's time enoyably spent, no stress at all. In my house, it's more likely to become an "impress the company" than a regular thing, but I'll certainly be making it again. I'd like to experiment with cooking the chicken outside on the grill next time, to add a little smokiness. But it's delicious as it stands."- dakotarussell
FOR THE CHICKEN: Combine cumin, coriander, cayenne, and salt in small bowl.Sprinkle both sides of chicken with spice mixture, pressing gently so mixture adheres. Add the crushed garlic and ginger.Rub it on the chicken and drizzle the olive oil. Place chicken in a ziploc bag and refrigerate overnight (or several hours).Take the chicken out from the fridge and add the yoghurt. Make sure it coats the chicken well. Let marinate for another 1-2 hours. In the meantime, get all the ingredients for the masala ready.
FOR THE SAUCE: Heat oil in large Dutch oven over medium heat until shimmering. Add onion and cook, stirring frequently, until light golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Add garlic, ginger, chile, tomato paste, and garam masala; cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 3 minutes.Add crushed tomatoes, sugar, turmeric, and salt; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. It is at this point that you may adjust the seasoning and add more spice if you like it spicier. Stir in cream and return to simmer.Remove pan from heat and cover to keep warm.
While sauce simmers, grill chicken on medium heat. Make sure you coat the chicken well with the yoghurt. Also, make sure you oil the grill ...as the chicken can easily stick. You can also do the chicken in the oven using the broiler. Just adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and heat broiler. Dip chicken into yogurt mixture (chicken should be coated with thick layer of yogurt) and arrange on wire rack set in foil-lined rimmed baking sheet or broiler pan. Discard excess yogurt mixture. Broil chicken until thickest parts register 160 degrees on instant-read thermometer and exterior is lightly charred in spots, 10 to 18 minutes, flipping chicken halfway through cooking. Let chicken rest 5 minutes, then cut into 1-inch chunks and stir into warm sauce (do not simmer chicken in sauce). Stir in cilantro, and serve over rice.
If your sauce is too thick, thin it out with some more cream or milk or chicken stock before serving.
You can also grill the chicken first and keep it warm... then proceed to make the sauce...

mikemerren 1 month agoawesome, but would cut down on the ginger slighly next time
chivesbro 1 month ago
Brozzie 1 month agoAn awesome dish replaced the full cream to coconut cream and was the best also continue to spice as you add ingredients to keep a strong masala flavours
eljordin 2 months agoPhenomenal recipe. Left out jalape?o and it was safe for kids and still fabulous!
mapglobal2 3 months agoI thought it was just 'ok, and lacked 'something', but wifey said it may have been the best dish I've ever produced, and said the seasoning balance was perfect. I was looking for a deeper taste, with more kick to it, but of course you're free to add or manipulate seasonings and spices as you see fit. I tend to be very critical of my own cooking, so even though I wanted more, it was still quite good .
kewatt 5 months agoThis was so delicious! Will be the only Tikka Masala recipe I will use.
syuz5 7 months agoAmazing recipe , easy to make and everyone could not believe it was made at home from scratch !! Highly recommend and sure to impress your guests !!!

Chunky Wooden Bauble Necklace

Click here to view your Craft Projects.
This Chunky Wooden Bauble Necklace from Lauren Tien is a great way to use up those napkin holders you no longer want. Similar to the fashionable necklaces you may find in Anthropologie, this easy knockoff is easy, inexpensive, and clever!
- 7 wooden napkin rings
- Paint
- Yarn or string
- Something to hang your wooden rings to dry (I used a pencil set across 2 jars)
Gather your wood pieces, paint, yarn or string, and something to hang your wooden rings on to dry. For drying, I used a pencil set across two jars {The pencil being where I hung the wooden rings, and the jars as an anchor on either side-- creating a little trapeze looking contraption. It kept my painted wood from setting on anything, allowing them to dry properly}
Dip your wood piece half way into your paint. I used BEHR's sample size of cobalt blue. It is a matte finish, which is what I wanted {and what I had in my paint bin}. You could also use multiple paint colors to achieve a different look.
After dipping your wood piece, hold it over the paint to allow excess drips to go back into your paint can. You can also utilize a flat paintbrush to wipe off paint if the coat is too thick.
Hang your half painted wood piece on your pencil trapeze drying contraption {or by other means} so as not to set the paint on any surface while it is drying.
Repeat steps 1-3 for each wood ring.
Allow to dry fully for one to two hours. Maybe more because the dipping process creates a thick layer of paint {I left mine to dry over night}
Cut your yarn to length, giving extra slack to play around with once you have the baubles around your neck {I like to have options for long, medium, and short, how about you?}.
String your colorblocked wooden baubles onto your yarn. You can really be creative with this. Use ribbon or even a long chain repurposed from another necklace. Make it completely your creation. It is truly up to you!
- Add your necklace to your outfit of the day, and get ready to wear your statement piece about town! {And, if you somehow aren't agreeing with your necklace. Take it off, pop some napkins in your baubles, and throw a dinner party! Your guests are sure to notice your statement colorblocked accessories }

15 Minutes of Fame: First Responders on the WoW scene
15 Minutes of Fame is our look at World of Warcraft players of all shapes and sizes – from the renowned to the relatively anonymous, the remarkable to the player next door. Tip us off to players you'd like to hear more about.
Talk about teamwork: The First Responders-H bring pack pride to Lightning's Blade (US) in a big way. This two-and-a-half-year-old, multi-game clan had cleared most of Black Temple prior to Wrath's launch, is digging into Naxxramas with a vengeance and, beyond WoW, maintains a well known and successful XBox team.
Their tactics: military precision – literally. The First Responders are primarily firefighters, medics, police officers and military personnel. The guild accepts civilians on a case-by-case basis, emphasizing common attitudes about teamwork rather than the usual min/maxing or gear focus of other guilds. While their nontraditional schedules may dampen progression speed, it certainly doesn't dampen their enthusiasm or guild pride.

The day of the professional pastor is fading away; the day of the missional pastor has come. The maintenance "movement" of congregational leadership did not end with a noisy explosion. It is fading away quietly and predictably through gridlocked congregational meetings, declining worship attendance and burned-out leaders. The symptoms of its demise are self-evident in the decline of "mainline" denominations. Some of us experience its decline in our own congregations.
But now we are witnessing similar results in evangelical, Roman Catholic and non-denominational congregations. And it is not accidental that so many congregations today are hemorrhaging, struggling and asking big questions.
The underlying issues are not just about recession and Churchwide Assembly votes. The issues cut deeper. The traditional way of being a professional pastor, with its understanding of the nature of leadership and ministry, may function reasonably well in a churched culture. But that way of doing ministry is lost on a mission field. Ministers of church maintenance do well in a Christian culture. However, put them in an unchurched culture, like our own, and they are lost.

Nice place for the money-very basic with an unheated pool and no hot tub. Great beach location-very central to Coco Bongos/Hard Rock. Clean hotel, but little in the way of gardens or foliage. Staff needs a little help-Maid wouldn't do dishes, so they piled up for 3 days until I left, and then she had to do them. No beach waiter/waitress to take drink orders and got hassled at the Beach bar because of "no credit card" on file, so I had to go back to my room, get dineros and go back to the bar to pay-hassle and I felt a little insecure leaving my stuff on the beach while running this "errand". Overall, I give a 3.1/ out of 5. A little better than most"
We really enjoyed our stay at this Westin. In my opinion they have the best beaches and accommodations on the southern end of the hotel strip. The people who work there were amazing and went above and beyond to make our experience the best possible. I would definitely choose to stay there again if I return to Cancun."
Outstanding. We stayed at a few places during this trip and this was best by far. Good location. Great Beach. Good service. Quiet."
Great service. Excellent food. It was our best stay in Playa del Carmen. The only issue was the wi-fi. It was extremely slow. Not that you need to be connected during your vacation, but it was impossible for me to connect to my office network. Also, this should be a easy fix for the management. The showers do not have shelves for the soap/shampoo. Not terrible, but not what you expect on a new hotel."
The service was supper. The food was great. Very friendly staff. Although they could use a better WiFi. It would be nice to have a wide coverage."
The service was unparalleled. They went out of their way to greet us (even the landscaping staff) every time we passed them. If they didn't have something visible, and we asked for it we got it. They made us feel like family and we did not want to leave. The food was awesome and their were multiple options. I highly recommend this property."
We stayed in their modern new building one block back from the beach. The room was clean and comfortable. They supplied a five gallon container of drinking water, a refrigerator, and a microwave. The balcony has an ocean view, but it lacked chairs. The wi-fi was good. We did not have a problem finding this hotel, but the sign was small. It is possible to snorkel off of the beach."
Enjoyed our stay here. Food was good and staff was very helpful and friendly, especially Miguel at the Akumal buffet (the one with AC). The only issue we have is with the lack of air conditioning at the resort. The AC in the room was barely enough to keep us comfortable if we also used the ceiling fan and didn't use any sheets/blankets. Eating our meals at the restaurants in the August heat and humidity without air conditioning was torture."

The showers do not have shelves for the soap/shampoo. Not terrible, but not what you expect on a new hotel."
If you are looking for an economy hotel that is conveniently located to the ferry, I would recommend Hotel Paraiso. The staff was very cordial. The room was large, clean, and had a beautiful view of the bay. This was my first time in Isla Mujeres and -- traveling alone -- I was not sure what to expect. Marina, at the front desk, and the rest of the staff were very friendly and assisted anytime I had a question or particular need. This hotel had a rustic charm, and is perfect for a traveler on a budget who is seeking a clean and quiet room. Location is in easy walking distance to city center and also the beautiful North Beach."
This hotel was great location is great close to the ferry. The staff was very helpful.The balcony sometimes was loud but then you are on the main street"
Hotel na balam is a superb hideaway on Isla de las Mujeres far from the Maddening Crowds of Cancun. Though the hotel is going through some some renovations it wasn't a problem for us. The front desk staff and room service folks were excellent helpful folks. The room is comfortable, I only wish there were maybe a little more lighting in the bathroom; location is awesome right on the beach. My only disappointment was the restaurant/beach wait staff service-which by the way not connected with the hotel, which was a bit odd at first. Food was great but wait staff is a tad bit disoriented and could use some training. Overall I would definitely be coming back here."

Hello All,
Just bought this from Bicycle Discovery in Huntington Beach, CA for $950 OTD. It's the 2011 model but I thought it was a good deal... I hope? Well, same day I took it out on the trails in Irvine park in Orange, CA. Man... to be honest it was my second time mountain biking and it was a tough one. After an hour or so of riding (75% uphill climb/25% downhill) I was beat.
So, I was thinking I should upgrade the following?
Get a pair of shorts and a jersey
I already have a helmet... but it's tempting to get a full helmet..
I think this should be good for now.

The folks over at Esquire Magazine have somehow managed to get some f@#king hotties to hang out at home in their underwear for their Me In My Place photoshoot. I don't know what the f@#k it is either, but first they had Sarah Shahi and her amazing little ass and now here's Stacy Keibler doing her thing in her undies. Pretty f@#king impressive if you ask me. I especially like that fact that in almost every shot she's hanging out on all fours. Hot. I don't have a clue what she's been up to these days, but she's still in awesome shape.

Captured by lunar gravity, Apollo 17 sped behind the moon. Gone, however, was the public concern that had existed when Apollo's 8, 10 and 11 entered the same phase of their trips to the moon. Now the American public, in general, considered a flight to the moon as being "routine," and about as interesting as a chemistry class. NASA, apparently, had done too good of a job of making it look easy. As Apollo 17 crossed behind the moon at 2:36 pm on Sunday, December 10th, 1972, it was isolated from any communication or assistance from the ground. Yet, the three major television networks did not even bother to break into regular programming to broadcast the event.
I had skipped a day of ice skating at the Civic Center just in case there may be some coverage of the lunar orbit insertion. Of course that meant that I was relegated to sitting in front of our family's TV set frantically spinning the dial and changing the three channels between an old movie, coverage of some European ski-jumping event and a show with some political talking-heads discussing what the next four years of the Nixon administration may mean to China. The clock ticked past 2:48 when the burn was scheduled to take place and still there was nothing on my TV- so I resorted to the radio. The top of the hour news had nothing to say other than what I already knew was happening; Apollo 17 was behind the moon. An hour later, however, the radio news reported that Apollo 17 was in lunar orbit, in just about that many words. That was it- the sum total of coverage for this critical event. At best, it was a good day to sit home and mess around with my rocket models.
Monday, December 11th was one of my "Apollo Days" off from school. Once again my parents had balanced my watching historic events live on TV against what the public school system had to offer. The choice was a day with Apollo, NASA and the space program as opposed to a day of classroom disturbances, fights, small change robbery and other assorted mayhem. If you've never attended a public school on the wrong side of town, you probably can't understand my parent's wisdom, if however, you have done so you can easily understand why Apollo 17 won that one hands down. I got up and turned on "The Today Show" to check on Apollo 17 and the status for landing. The news was good with NBC reporting that their coverage would begin at 2:20 pm which was fine with me considering that the LEM was supposed to touch down a 2:54. Landing a LEM was probably the most complex and unique activity in human history. It required coordination between both of the astronauts, onboard landing
radar, ground radar from earth and the computer aboard the LEM. Certainly, a junior high school kid like me, sitting in front of the family TV set in mid-Michigan had nothing to do with it. No matter; I had my tape recorder and my books as well as my 1/144 scale Revell model and I was going to be ready for the adventure.
Once undocked, the Command Service Module (CSM), that on Apollo 17 had been named "America," altered into a circular orbit and away from the LEM, which had been named "Challenger." The first step in what was called "powered descent" was a 7.5 second retro-grade burn of the reaction control system (RCS) motors for ullage. The term "ullage" comes from the brewing industry and originally was the moniker given to the area left in a container when some of the contents had been drained. It is said to have been applied to rocketry by the folks at Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama in the early days of the Saturn rocket program. In spaceflight then term relates to the settling of liquids in a fuel or oxidizer tank. Thus, when the onboard computer calculated the proper time… the LEM's RCS fired ullage preparing for P63 and PDI… as they used to say in NASA moon-talk.
Flying along on their back, or rather- standing on the wall- the astronauts were looking up, away from the lunar surface as shortly after ullage the computer indicated program "63." under the "PROG." tag. This was the program that commanded the ignition of the LEM's descent engine. P63 was indicated on the display keyboard or "DSKY" (pronounced; dis-key) and "99" was also flashing on the display. The flashing of "99" was the computer's way of saying that it was waiting for an astronaut input, or as Jim Lovell said, "…it asks, are you sure you really wanna do that?" Schmitt pushed "PROCEED" on the DSKY and the computer fired up the engine right on time; the crew now had Power Descent Initiation, or "PDI."
This was actually one of a very few times that Schmitt made the actual entries into the computer. He and Cernan had worked out a method where the commander would make almost all of the entries during powered descent. This was because of Cernan's Apollo 10 experience where he and his Commander, Tom Stafford, had some trouble because one guy had put something the computer and the other had put something in on top of it. This time they had a clear plan and a simple rule- Cernan did the entering with exception of P63 and P64 which Schmitt would do because Cernan's attention needed to be outside at those times. Schmitt was thus dedicated to the abort guidance computer and landing radar. At PDI the LEM was orbiting at an altitude of only 56,544 feet above the moon at a velocity of 5,568 feet per second. Just 26 seconds later the descent engine throttled up to full power and the Challenger began breaking toward the surface of the moon. The astronauts could still not see much of the lunar surface
as they remained looking almost straight up. What they could see, however, was a grand view of the blue earth.
"You're allowed two quick looks out the window," Cernan quipped to Schmitt , whose job it was to have his head in the cockpit reading the instruments and computer DSKY, "…one now and one when we pitch over."
"I can't see a thing except the earth." Schmitt replied helplessly.
"That's what I'm tellin' ya' to look at." Cernan replied with a hint of fun.
For seven minutes the engine ran at full power and then throttled down- the LEM was at just over 25,000 feet in altitude with a velocity now of only about 1,200 feet per second. For the next two minutes the LEM would continue on a gentle downward arc. The next key point in the powered descent was what the NASA press kits called "High Gate." The news commentators really took a hold on that term and apparently loved to say it. The funny part was that the astronauts rarely, if ever, used that term. Normally they called it "pitch-over," or "the pitch," or "P64," but I have yet to find a recording or transcript where they referred to it as "high gate." Just prior to nine minutes and 20 seconds into the powered descent, the DSKY would display "P64" and flash "99." Shortly after passing through 9,000 feet above the surface, Cernan called for the "Pro." Schmitt hit the Proceed on the DSKY and the LEM pitched over from
a 60 degree nose high attitude to a 20 degree nose high; they were in nearly a landing attitude. Now Cernan could clearly see landmarks and known craters.
"And there it is Houston! There's Camelot!" Cernan sang out, "Right on target!"
"I see it!" Schmitt chimed in, taking his second and last allowed look out the window during the descent.
Now Schmitt began dutifully calling out the LPD numbers. LPD was an acronym used for "Landing Point Designator." This critical and very handy little system was one of the lynch-pins to the Apollo astronauts being able to actually land safely on the lunar surface. The computer used radar plus calculations of forward velocity and vertical velocity to calculate a forward point where its math said the LEM would touch down. It translated that data into a number that was then displayed on the DSKY. That number was then read aloud by Schmitt to Cernan who had a scale engraved into his window. He simply matched the number said to him to whatever point on the lunar surface was seen to correspond to it and he had his expected landing point. Every Apollo lunar landing used this system to line up its approach. The numbers were spoken either as simple digits, "three nine, four zero," etc. or they were spoken in degrees, "thirty seven degrees." That was dependent upon how the
specific crew decided to do it. On Apollo 15 for example, Jim Irwin gave Dave Scott the LPD in simple digits. On Apollo 17, Jack Schmitt gave Gene Cernan the LPD in degrees. Generally, the commander stopped using the LPD somewhere below 1,000 feet. Cernan had Schmitt stop giving LPD at about 800 feet.
Watching the simulation and animation on TV it felt as if you were watching the real thing, but it also caused you to listen very closely to those two voices talking from the moon. On all six of the lunar landings it always struck me deep down that those men were flying to a landing ON THE MOON! Hovering in to a location where no human had ever been. They were a quarter of a million miles away. Most importantly, one tiny malfunction could set off a chain events that would likely kill them- as we listened. They were alone in the most hostile environment that humans had ever ventured into. It was the most gripping experience that anyone could ever witness. What puzzled me, however, was why was it only gripping to so few Americans such as myself? Why wasn't every American, every human, in any civilized place glued to this event like I was? It is a question that to this day still bewilders me.
Cernan and Schmitt made their calls, followed their radar and soon the Challenger's four legs and their rod-like landing probes were stretching out toward the powdery surface of the moon.
"Standby for touchdown." Cernan flatly reported. It was a remark that he could have patented. He used it on ever space shuttle landing that he helped broadcast a decade later… only a few of us noticed, I'll bet.
As the probes touched the surface a blue light went on in front of Schmitt, "Contact," He sung out and then, by reflex and training, he went directly into calling out the landing checklist, "Stop, push! Engine stop! Engine Arm, Proceed, Command Override, Off, Mode Control, Att. Hold, Pings- Auto."
"Okay Houston, the Challenger has landed!" Cernan exclaimed proudly.
Houston Capcom Gordon Fullerton came back with a subdued "Okay, that's super." You'd have thought that he had just finished a landing simulation he was so professionally unemotional.
Of course the pressure was not off- there was still the probability of something going wrong, in which case the crew would have to abort and liftoff immediately in order to rendezvous with the CSM. One thing a pilot learns, either by training- or by accident, is that just when you think you are home free and you have got it made- that is when the worst tends to happen. So, they had to now safe the LEM and get it configured for liftoff while Mission Control looked at all of the systems and decided if they could stay on the lunar surface. After the longest three minutes and 46 seconds of their lives, Cernan and Schmitt were given a "Go" to stay from Mission Control. Humanity's last landing on the moon, perhaps in our lifetime, was a success.
Looking over at my 1/144 scale Revell Lunar Module model, I could clearly see that it too had landed safely on our living room carpet, for about the 4,000th time.
