Jim Harbaugh seems certain to leave the 49ers at season's end, if only because no one can stand him for more than four years, but everyone expects him to land in another NFL job. Well, here comes ol' mediocre Michigan, looking to blow up the coaching salary curve. »

TRANSPORTATION -- Gone hybrid . . .
Fuel economy ratings for the new 2010 model year automobiles are now posted at the www.fueleconomy.gov web site, which Oak Ridge National Laboratory developed and maintains for the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Nine of the top 10 vehicles on the best fuel economy list are hybrid electrics, led by the Toyota Prius (51 MPG city; 48 highway). "This list proves that hybrids have gone mainstream," said project leader Bo Saulsbury of ORNL's Environmental Sciences Division. "There's now a hybrid for everyone. The 32 hybrid models available in 2010 offer car buyers the choice of an SUV, passenger car, economy or luxury model, from almost every major automobile maker." The site also now contains its first Spanish-language pages, including the "Find and Compare Cars" and "Gas Mileage Tips" pages which can be found at the main address or at www.ahorremosgasolina.com. Saulsbury said ORNL plans to post an entire Spanish-language site by the end of 2010. Many of the new models qualify for federal tax credit. Users can check out the new 2010 hybrids, clean diesels, alternative fuel vehicles and more energy efficient gasoline-powered vehicles at www.fueleconomy.gov or at the abbreviated "mobile" site at www.fueleconomy.gov/m.

|Jadeveon Clowney DE, South Carolina
|Full Scouting Report
Scouting Report:
Jadeveon Clowney - Defensive End - South Carolina
Many in the draft analyst community including myself have written up Clowney as one of the best players in America. Unfortunately, he did not live up to his reputation in this game.
The first thing that jumped out at me was that Clowney was not in game shape. In fairness, Clowney has missed a good portion of preseason practice with an undisclosed injury…it showed! After just a couple of series he looked exhausted. We saw flashes of what he can do but it was not a consistent down after down performance. I don't know what the official stats were but I had Clowney down for 3 tackles, 1 assisted tackle and 2 quarterback pressures. Clowney was not as explosive off the ball as I have seen him in the past and he rarely used moves. He showed a bull rush a few times and used an arm over move often but I didn't see counter moves more than a couple of times. Where he was best was in pursuit where he showed his speed and competitive nature. His lack of conditioning showed up in long series, though. He would start off some series playing hard but by the end of that series his effort slacked off. He seemed to pick and choose when he wanted to play hard.
Overall, I am not going to downgrade Clowney off of one average game because I have seen too much excellent tape from the last two years. Still, it's a red flag so to speak.
|Kony Ealy DE, Missouri
|Full Scouting Report
Scouting Report:
A few years ago, when Missouri announced it was going to leave the Big 12 to play in the SEC, I felt the school was making a mistake. From a personnel and recruiting standpoint, I thought the Tigers just didn't have the talent to compete with the best in the SEC.
Oh, how I was wrong.
Not only is Missouri competing, the school is competing for SEC Championships. The reason being is that they have the athletes both on the defensive line and at the skill positions to play with the best teams in the SEC. Last year, Missouri had defensive lineman Sheldon Richardson, who ended up being a first-round selection with the Jets and is quickly becoming one of the better young defensive linemen in the NFL. This year, their top defensive lineman is junior DE Kony Ealy, who is entering the draft early and come May, should be a first-round draft pick.
Kony Ealy - Defensive End - Missouri
Ealy notched 9.5 sacks for the Tigers in 2013.
Ealy is a fourth-year junior and a two-year starter for the Tigers at left defensive end. Coming out of high school, Ealy was an undersized defensive end (approximately 230 pounds), but was still rated as a 4-star recruit and had offers from schools such as Georgia Tech, Nebraska and Mississippi. Ealy redshirted his first year and was a role player during his second season. As a starter in 2012, he had 37 total tackles including 3.5 sacks and 10 tackles for loss. This past season, Ealy had a breakout year with 43 total tackles, 9.5 sacks and 14.5 tackles for loss. When you take into account the fact that Missouri rotates their defensive linemen, those are outstanding stats. When Ealy is in the game, his athleticism and hustle jump out on tape.
Ealy has good defensive end size at about 6050 - 275 with good arm length. He is a very good athlete with speed, body control and change of direction. He plays fast and looks as if he will run in the 4.68 range. He has excellent snap reaction and a very good first step. As a run defender, Ealy is good. He has the strength and power to hold the point and uses his hands to shed blocks. He makes a lot of pursuit plays and does a fairly good job versus the inside run. While Ealy can be inconsistent versus the outside run, the reason is that he's a bit undisciplined and tends to get caught inside. He needs to play contain better and not allow himself to be hook blocked.
Where Ealy excels is as a pass rusher. He is explosive off the ball and has a variety of moves. He can make a quick step outside and then counter and come back across his opponent's face to get inside pressure. He also has the speed and bend to edge rush, dip his inside shoulder and burst to the quarterback. Ealy's burst off a block to the quarterback is excellent. While he is not a real big guy, he has explosive power through his hips and can bull rush with effectiveness.
Overall, Ealy possesses the integral trait that NFL teams covet: He can rush the passer. He is best suited to play as a 4-3 defensive end, but most of the 3-4 clubs will work him out as a linebacker and if he proves to be able to drop into coverage, he will have high value to those organizations as well. From an athletic viewpoint I see no reason why he can't play on his feet. He has the bend and hip flexibility needed to drop.
Don't be surprised to hear Ealy's name mentioned a lot in the weeks leading up to the draft. He is an impressive player.

|Stephon Tuitt DE, Notre Dame
|Full Scouting Report
Scouting Report:
Stephon Tuitt – Defensive Tackle
Tuitt is a third-year junior and a two-year starter. He played as a backup his true freshman year. He usually plays as the five-technique in Notre Dame's 3-4 scheme. When they go to a four-man front on passing downs he lines up both inside and outside.
Tuitt has excellent five-technique size at about 6060, 323 pounds with very long arms. In 2012, he played at closer to 312 and looked quicker and more athletic than he did this year. Following the 2012 season, Tuitt had surgery to repair a sports hernia, and because of that, he entered the 2013 season a bit overweight and out of shape. That showed in his play during the early part of the season. There are some close to the Notre Dame program that will tell you that Tuitt was not the best when it came to attacking rehab.
Despite his size, Tuitt has very good straight line quickness and speed. It would not shock me to see him run in the 4.78 – 4.80 range at the Combine. I'm concerned that despite having speed and quickness, he is also tight in his knees and hips. His body control and change of direction are average compared to his speed. Tuitt plays tall and can have some trouble clearing piles when moving laterally in traffic. It's surprising how many times you see him lose his balance and end up on the ground during the course of a game. Still, he flashes big play ability. In 2012, he had an 80+ yard interception return for a TD, and this year, had a diving interception for a TD vs Michigan. He can come up with some "wow" plays every game. The problem is, for every top play, there are too many where he does nothing. Tuitt is not what I would call an "every down" competitor.
Against the run, Tuitt can be stout. Though he can play tall, he is very strong and can hold the point. He flashes quick shed ability and shows he can make plays for loss or at the line of scrimmage. If he has the angle, he can make some pursuit plays. You just don't see enough of them. As a pass rusher he, again, flashes. Tuitt almost always takes an outside charge or bull rush. If he can beat his opponent with his first step, he has a good outside charge. Because he lacks top bend, you don't see him show the ability to lower his shoulder and get under his opponent. The other thing you don't see is counter moves. I have rarely seen him redirect and try to come back across his opponents face. He is very good as a bull rusher because of his power and shows he can walk a tackle back to the QB.
Tuitt has some athletic limitations, but he is still very talented. He would be best as a five-technique at the next level but, he may also be a capable 4-3 tackle. He may even be able to play left end in some 4-3 schemes. What Tuitt has to do is develop down-after-down consistency and learn to play with bend. After the 2012 season, I would have bet that he was going to be a top pick when he came out, but the 2013 season was a disappointment to me. He did not play up to his ability. Still, at the defensive tackle position, many teams look at the talent and not the consistency. For that reason, it wouldn't surprise me to see him taken as high as 20 or as low as 40. He will be an interesting guy to track as a pro.
|Scott Crichton DE, Oregon State
|Full Scouting Report
Scouting Report:
|Trent Murphy DE, Stanford
|Full Scouting Report
Scouting Report:
Trent Murphy – Linebacker
Murphy is a fifth-year senior from Mesa, Arizona. He is a three-year starter at outside linebacker, and in the Stanford scheme, he really plays a combination OLB/DE. He lines up from both a two-point and three-point stance.
Listed as being 6'6 – 261, Murphy is bigger than your prototypical OLB. On tape, he looks to be a good athlete. While he has smooth movement, I don't see explosive quickness and power. He plays with good, not great, strength. He has average speed for the position, and I would estimate he runs in the 4.8 area.
Murphy has put up some outstanding numbers to date this year with 45 tackles, including 18 for loss and 12 sacks. In the three games I viewed (USC, Oregon, UCLA), I did not see that type of production in his play. While he is very consistent and plays hard, I didn't that all that many "big" plays.
Murphy has good initial quickness and stays low. He can get his hands on his opponent quickly and shows the hand use to shed blocks. He has good instincts and finds the ball. I wouldn't call him a disrupter versus the run, but he does make plays. He is a very steady player who, while not flashy, at the end of the day, you see makes a lot of plays. As a pass rusher, he gets off the ball with good quickness. He is not an explosive pass rusher, but he knows how to put moves together and goes snap-to-whistle. He is smart, and you seldom see him break contain. He is used some in pass coverage and is best in zone. He has a good drop and shows a feel in coverage, but he lacks the explosive quickness that you would prefer an OLB to have.
Murphy is a bit of a tweener, big for an OLB and small for a DE. His workouts will have a lot to say about where he gets drafted. In watching three games, I still don't have a really good feel for this player, so I need to watch more tape. Right now, I see him as a "B" level player (third – fourth round), but he could be better. His best fit is a 3-4 OLB, but there are some 4-3 schemes in the league he could play in. I will update this report as I see more tape.
|Marcus Smith DE, Louisville
|Chris Smith DE, Arkansas
|Full Scouting Report
Scouting Report:
|Will Clarke DE, West Virginia
|Full Scouting Report
Scouting Report:
William Clark – West Virginia
Clark is an interesting player to watch. He plays defensive end in a 3-4 scheme, though with his body type he is better suited to be a 4-3 end. Clark is a very tall, long armed athlete. He is listed as being 6'7" – 275. He has a lean build but looks as though he could easily gain 20 pounds.
As an athlete, he shows good change of direction, body control, and flexibility. He can bend, is light on his feet, and can run well. His play speed is about 4.88. Clark is said to be a top performer in the weight room, but on the field he plays with good but not great strength and power.
Clark has just average instincts, and he can be a bit slow to find the ball. He is not an instant reactor. At the snap, he sometimes gets tall and looks to find the ball. Because of this he can be slow to shed. He looks like a much better player when he just goes. When that happens, he plays lower and gets rid of blocks faster.
Clark plays hard, I have no problem with his competitive nature. He flashes both as a run defender and a pass rusher. When rushing the passer, he flashes a good bull rush but can also use moves and dip his shoulder to get under his opponent. While he didn't get a high number of sacks (six), he gets a lot of pressures. He also does a good job getting his hands up to disrupt a throw. In the run game, he is inconsistent. Because he can be slow to react it takes him out of some plays. Still, when he is on he can shed quickly and make plays. He will chase the ball and has caught plays from behind.
I feel the 4-3 teams will have more interest in Clark than the 3-4 teams. Though he does have two-gap skills, his body type is more suited to be a 4-3 end. He needs to get a lot bigger to hold up at the point in a 3-4 scheme. Unless I see more at an All-star game, I see Clark as a mid-round pick who will be a productive backup/rotational type player in the NFL.
|Ed Stinson DE, Alabama
|Full Scouting Report
Scouting Report:
Ed Stinson – Defensive End
Stinson is a 5th year senior and a two year starter at left defensive end in Alabama's 3-4 defense. He red shirted as a freshman and then played in the D-Line rotation the next 2 years. He has good size at about 6'4 – 290 with long arms. He shows good balance and is seldom off his feet but his overall athleticism is average for the position. He has some tightness in his knees and hips. He can get tall in his stance and can get tall with his play also. He has average speed, with a play speed of about 5.0 - 5.1.
Stinson is strong, but I wouldn't call him explosive. He has the power to hold the point and he doesn't give ground. He is basically a 2-gapper who gets a push and can be disruptive in the run game. He has quick reactions and can find the ball. While he doesn't make a lot of plays, he is around the ball, and with his ability to penetrate, he can disrupt a lot of plays. He shows good ability to shed single blocks and occupy double teams. He is a competitive, tough guy who plays hard but has limitations.
He is not a force as a pass rusher. He flashes a counter move to redirect but is mainly a bull rusher who can get a push. He is not quick to close off of blocks. His initial quickness in both the run and pass game is average. At times, he is the last guy off the ball.
I see him as a mid-round pick who will be a run down player at the next level. He may never be a solid starter but he can be a good rotational player. In the right situation, he could start but that team will always be looking for something better.
|Taylor Hart DE, Oregon
|Full Scouting Report
Scouting Report:
Taylor Hart – Defensive Tackle
Hart is a fifth year senior and a three year starter for the Ducks. He usually lines up as a 5-technique defensive end in their 3-4, but he has also played on the nose and even stands up some. Hart has adequate size at about 6'6 – 290. I would estimate his speed at about 5.00. He is an average athlete for the position, he has some tightness in his knees and hips, but he is tough and competitive. Hart is a snap to whistle player on EVERY down. I don't like his stance. He plays from a crouched-up frog like stance that causes him to get a bit tall coming out of his stance. Still, he is strong at the point of attack and can use his hands to shed. He has good instincts and reactions and does a very good job finding the ball. Because of his competitiveness, there are times when he looks like there is no way he can make the play, but he ends up making it just out of desire. He plays double teams well and doesn't get knocked off the ball. As a pass rusher, he is able to get a push with his strength, but he does not possess many moves and I haven't seen much production. He is a very good pursuit player who consistently takes good angles to the ball.
I see Hart as a good rotational type player in a 3-4 defense. While he plays some nose in college, I don't see him being able to do that at the next level. This is the type of backup defensive lineman that many teams want. He can give his team 20 -25 good snaps a game, and while he won't start or be a star, he will be a quality rotational player. While he has some athletic limitations, he will still get better with experience. He is a solid mid-round pick who will play early.

While testing some functionality for a client recently I found something interesting when publishing shared content types through the content type hub.
After initial creation of the content types and adding subscribers all seemed to work well. That is all content types were 'pushed' down to all the subscribers and each subscriber site could make use of the shared content types.
Once I started making changes that is where things started to get interesting. I found that for each content type hub subscriber, it creates a new timer job for each of the web application subscribers. I also found that each timer jobs only runs hourly by default. As I was working on my local development server and making changes quite regularly, I wanted a way to force updates each time I was making updates.
PowerShell to the rescue!
Here is a PSH cmdlet that I wrote that will force an update of all published content types through the content type hub each time it is run.
It will enumerate through each web application and start the MetadataSubscriberTimerJob.
Too easy!
Please feel free to modify etc as you see fit.

If you need to buy a present for someone with younger children, or just like to share a great picture book with your own kids, these are a few of my recent favourites:
This Book Just Ate my Dog! by Richard Byrne
Following somewhat in the footsteps of the very popular Press Here, this is a picture book with a bit of interactivity, in which a young girl named Bella out for a dogwalk is very surprised when her dog disappears into the margin, followed quickly by her friend, Ben. When that seems to be just the beginning of this voracious book's appetites, it may just be up to the reader to sort things out and help save Bella, Ben, and all of her would-be rescuers, in a book that may just become a family favourite.
The World According to Musk Ox by Erin Cabatingan
Readers are familiar with musk ox, who stood front and center through both the alphabet and a counting odyssey. After all, it is all about him. Now, in their third outing, the two traipse all around the globe, with zebra introducing facts about each continent, while musk ox is, well, musk ox.
The Hockey Sweater by Roch Carrier
With the 100th Anniversary of Hockey Canada, it seems terribly appropriate to also have a hockey book for Christmas. What could be better than the 30th Anniversary edition of the classic Canadian title about a young boy's horror when his mother ends up replacing his #9 jersey not with another of the great Maurice Richard, but with a jersey belonging to ... the horror, the Toronto Maple Leafs? This isn't done in a town where the boys dress like the Rocket, act like the Rocket, comb their hair like the Rocket. How can he show his face again? This edition also comes with a bonus DVD.
And Two Boys Booed by Judith Viorst
On the morning of the talent show, after a lot of practicing, a small boy had practiced "a billion times." Judith Viorst presents a cumulative tale about a very realistic fear about performance anxiety with wonderful illustrations and flaps that show how this performer deals with a few detractors in a story that will resonate with anybody that has or will ever sing a song, play an instrument, give a speech, tell a story, or do anything in front of a crowd.
It's a great year for fantastic picture books! If you've found others, or would like other suggestions, drop us a line in the comments. Don't forget that you will find these, and other great titles, in your local Library!
There are a few new titles in our collection with a wonderful whimsy that makes them worth sharing, whether with your children, your classroom, or a child who may be having an upcoming birthday.
The first title in Rachel Bright's new picture book series introduces us to an admittedly funny looking monster. Love Monster knows that he isn't the best-looking guy in the world, but he's determined to find someone who will love him. Adults will know that this doesn't work, and will appreciate that he's reading all the wrong self-help books, looking in the wrong places (up, down, the pond), yet, as one can always hope, just when one is about ready to give up, love is around the corner. There will be two more titles in a series intended for preschoolers and anyone reading to or with them.
Natalie Lloyd's debut introduces readers to Felicity Pickle in A Snicker of Magic. The Pickles have always moved from place to place, as Felicity's mother has never been comfortable staying anywhere; it isn't until the Pickles get to Midnight Gulch, Tennessee, a town that had once been known for its magic, that Felicity finds herself longing to create a home for her family. Felicity herself has a touch of magic in her ability to see words emanating from people, which she then collects. Felicity meets her first real friend Jonah, who has a kind of magic of his own. Felicity sets out to discover what happened to Midnight Gulch's magic and whether she can, perhaps, bring it back, along with some security to her own family.
The denizens of this wonderful place are all as novel as you would expect in a place where ice cream has mystical properties, and the hair stylists are also mechanics. Felicity's appreciation of and use of language add to the book, and the extra tales, curse, and backstories will provide a treat for readers aged 8-12 who enjoys stories about language, families, and clever settings, along with a happy ending.
Mustache BabyOne of the great pleasures of working at the Library is finding books that beg to be shared.
One such book coming out later this spring is a very funny picture book by Bridget Heos, called Mustache Baby. When Billy is born, his family notices something odd; he has a mustache. Will it be a good mustache, leading him to be good and true — like a cowboy, or a police officer, or will it be a bad-guy mustache, making him a pirate, or a cereal criminal? Only time will tell, but perhaps all of us have good and bad mustache days. Joy Ang's goofy illustrations add a lot to the text, making this a wonderful read aloud for older children as well, who will be able to appreciate the humour.
Nugget & Fang
Another funny picture book coming out this spring is the story of two unlikely BFFs in Tammi Sauer's Nugget & Fang: Friends Forever — or Snack Time? The idyllic friendship that a shark and a minnow have had is disrupted when the minnow goes to school and learns about food chains in reading group. How Fang proves to the minnows that he although he will always be "toothy" he is not just another shark is a winsome story of loyalty.
Exclamation MarkOne last recent favorite is the newest offering from the team behind Wumbers: it's a word cr8ted with a number!, author Amy Krause Rosenthal & illustrator Tom Lichtenheld. This time around they present readers with Exclamation Mark, a story that uses punctuation to show that it is not only okay, but that it actually can be a good thing to be different from everyone else. This is a very clever book, as its illustrations allow for an amusing introduction of its point, in one case illustrating children as a group of periods in which the exclamation mark has never quite fit, until one day along comes a question mark, asking as many questions as children are often wont to do, and the exclamation mark finds his perfect role.

Work in progress, for about a week now :) Will try another attempt soon but I'm done for now.
Background is a stock photo of concrete (you may recognize it from Rough and Tough); elephant texture is a transparent layer with my own photo of a cool elephant sculpture a friend gave me; the elephant underneath and everything else is GIMP digital.
Incidentally, I've wanted to put things on tapered stilts for a long time but was sort of intimidated by firedrake's awesome work…it finally worked its way out though :)
Lastly, I was hesitant about the shade of purple…purple can sometimes convey artificiality and 'putting on airs'…but on an aristocrat who commands an elephant to hold its parasol, I thought this shade worked.
So incredible, sooooo gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you pinky!! Nice to hear from you, I will have to check your stuff out in a jiff…

Thanks so much Catherine!!

The ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles managed to increase their container volumes slightly in 2012 from a weak 2011, but the total of about 14.1 million 20-foot-equivalent units was well below the 15.8 million TEUs the port complex handled in its peak year of 2006.
The meager performance highlights the lingering impact of the 2008-09 recession. It also reflects increased competition from East Coast ports and Prince Rupert, British Columbia, all of which have been eating into the market share of North America's largest container complex.
Prince Rupert, which opened its Fairview Container Terminal in October 2007, handled about 550,000 TEUs in 2012. About two-thirds of that container traffic moved to or from the U.S. Midwest and mid-South, which are prime markets for the Southern California ports.
East Coast ports have been gradually increasing market share in the Asia-U.S. trade since the employer lockout of International Longshore and Warehouse Union dockworkers during the 2002 contract negotiations. East Coast ports are deepening their harbors in anticipation of completion of the Panama Canal expansion project in 2015, although bigger ships are already calling at East Coast ports via the Suez Canal route.
The past year has been unusually turbulent for U.S. ports. The International Longshoremen's Association contract at East and Gulf Coast ports was originally set to expire on Sept. 30. The ILA threatened to strike as the deadline approached, and conditions at East and Gulf Coast ports have remained unsettled as the contract was extended twice. Negotiations with waterfront employers are continuing.
The uncertainty surrounding the ILA contract negotiations resulted in some diversion of cargo to West Coast ports. However, the Office Clerical Unit of ILWU Local 63 in Los Angeles-Long Beach struck the Southern California ports for eight days beginning in late November, resulting in a diversion of some cargo to other ports and inhibiting further gains.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

2,400 children benefit from free Childcare
Around 2,400 children are using the Childcare free service which was lauched by the Government in April this year. The Labour Government explained how all the family is benefitting from this service, where it is providing women and men alike the opportunity to return to workforce.
This was one of the topics discussed during a visit by a delegation which was done by NL – Labour women for Minister Helena Dalli to prepare for the Conference with the theme "Women - Leaders Changing Society" on Friday 22 August. This conference will also be addressed by Zita Gurmai Women President of the Party of European Socialists which will be present in Malta these coming days.
Claudette Abela Baldacchino President of NL – Labour Women said that "while we have political and moral obligation to stage on top of the agenda of the needs of vulnerable women, we cannot forget the successful stories of women that with their own ability managed to build a business, made advancement in their career and even in politics"
Abela Baldacchino also said that "investing in young women particularly in the field of education is essential, but at the same time we must not forget those women who sacrificed their careers to take care of their elderly relatives ".
Minister Helena Dalli said that she is looking forward to the conference which is going to be organized by NL - Labour Women on Friday.
She added that the agenda of the government is to foster opportunities for women in every field. "The work being undertaken in various sectors, including education, health and even economic and social policy clearly shows how this Government is committed to the advancement of women".
The ratification of the convention of Istanbul that has just passed by the Maltese Parliament was also discussed.

Cameron And Schlumberger Form Subsea Joint Venture
Cameron and Schlumberger today announced the creation of OneSubsea™, a joint venture to manufacture and develop products, systems and services for the subsea oil and gas market. This new company will offer a step change in reservoir recovery for the subsea oil and gas industry through integration and optimization of the entire production system over the life of the field. The integration of the production system will be accomplished by combining superior reservoir knowledge and wellbore technologies, with industry leading subsea technologies, all together delivering enhanced productivity, reliability and integrity.
Cameron and Schlumberger have 60/40 ownership of the joint venture, respectively, and the transaction is subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. Cameron, with its long history of innovation and firsts in the subsea market, is an industry leader in design capability, manufacturing excellence and successful installations. Schlumberger brings a deep understanding of the reservoir, and industry-leading well completions, subsea processing and integration platform.
Under the terms of the formation agreement, Cameron will contribute its existing subsea division and receive $600 million from Schlumberger. Schlumberger will contribute its Framo, Surveillance, Flow Assurance and Power and Controls businesses. Cameron will manage the joint venture and will consolidate it for financial reporting purposes. Cameron will reflect minority interest in its financial statements for Schlumberger's interest in the JV.
Cameron Chairman, President and CEO, Jack B. Moore said, "Our new venture with Schlumberger provides a powerful marriage of their oilfield services technology and our subsea equipment heritage. It leverages Cameron's flow control expertise, world class manufacturing and aftermarket capabilities."Schlumberger CEO Paal Kibsgaard commented, "This new joint venture, which combines the forces of two world-class companies, is uniquely positioned to optimize complete subsea production systems and help our customers improve production and recovery from their subsea developments. The broad scientific and technology platform that Schlumberger brings will enable a total system approach, leading to a unique and differentiated offering in this rapidly growing market."

may you help me
- 0Aug 2, '12 by um hamedhi every body,
i'm working in AICU
i have general diploma
i want to apply for anesthesia nurse
i want to know what are the requirement for my study.
- 0Aug 2, '12 by Esme12, BSN, RN Senior ModeratorThread moved for better response.
- 2Aug 2, '12 by CABGx4I think google can help you. If you are too lazy to research the requirements yourself, you are probably too lazy for a career in nurse anesthesia.
- 0Aug 3, '12 by TickledPinkRNI don't think that was very appropriate, unprofessional, and extremely unneccesary
- 0Aug 3, '12 by TickledPinkRNI know you have to have at least 1 year of ICU experience and score very proficient on the GRE. You will have to check with the schools of your choice for other requirements
- 2Aug 4, '12 by CABGx4Hmmm.. A sensitive bunch. All I'm saying is a lil initiative can go a long way. Anesthetists are not the kind of folks who need spoon fed information. If your really interested, pm me and I'll help you out
- 0Aug 4, '12 by Esme12, BSN, RN Senior ModeratorWhile I agree Google can be helpful.....we can also help someone who is looking to enter a speciality area of our profession.
OP I see that you are in a RN to BSN bridge. After you graduate and pass NCLEX you need to get experience as a RN 1-2 years and have a critical care speciality for approximately 2 years. Then you will have to get letters of recommondations and apply for post grad programs with the speciality in Nurse Anesthesia. These programs are very competative and only accept the best of the best.
This thread although older might give you some informationthat will be helpful. http://allnurses.com/pre-crna-inquir...na-123275.html
This will answer any questions for you.
Who We Are
The American Association of Nurse Anesthetists (AANA), Founded in 1931, is the professional association representing more than 44,000 Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) and student registered nurse anesthetists nationwide. The AANA promulgates education and practice standards and guidelines, and affords consultation to both private and governmental entities regarding nurse anesthetists and their practice. The AANA Foundation supports the profession by awarding education and research grants to students, faculty and practicing CRNAs. More than 90 percent of the nation's nurse anesthetists are members of the AANA.
Become a CRNA
The miracle of anesthesia made pain-free surgery a reality. Nurse anesthetists, the first healthcare providers dedicated to the specialty of anesthesia, have their roots in the 1800s, when nurses first gave anesthesia to wounded soldiers on the battlefields of the Civil War. Today, Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) are master's prepared advanced practice nurses who enjoy a high degree of autonomy and professional respect. CRNAs provide anesthetics to patients in every practice setting, and for every type of surgery or procedure. They are the sole anesthesia providers in nearly all rural hospitals, and the main provider of anesthesia to the men and women serving in the U.S. Armed Forces.
For more information about nurse anesthetists, see:
CRNAs at a Glance
Become a CRNALast edit by Esme12 on Aug 4, '12
- 0Aug 4, '12 by traumaRUs, MSN, APRN, CNS AdminAgree that for any APN role, you need some initiative. However, that said, it doesn't hurt us, as APNs to provide some friendly advice, minus the "google it".

Buspar for anxiety attacks Buspar works 95% on my anxiety, but during a mania episode it does not work. I have tried so many many drugs over the last 8 yrs, since diagnois, and I hate that weight gain and numbness. When I feel an episode coming on, I sure do know! I go to my dr. and he gives me another perscription of something to see if I can use it. I take Strattera for ADHD and it helps a lot with some swings, but I know in my heart of hearts I need something powerful. I have pancreas and liver trouble, causing bouts of pancreatis so I have to be careful not to upset it and go into a full blown episode and be placed in the hospital, like the past!!! I hate the hospitals! I have tried Lamitical, wellbrutin, lithium, actually you name it, I have tried it!!! I am sure at some point, I will be able to add another drug to my regine of drugs and control this somehow?
I went back to college a year or so ago, due to the effectiveness of Stratterra 80mg a day, but the stress of learning is so overwhelming, I have a hard time taking numbing drugs and remembering my name, buspar helps a lot with this. It is likely that I may have to give college up soon, if I can't take something else to help with the chest pains of stress. Would be a shame to have to do that.
For me Busprione works great for anxiety! Hope everyone fines something to help them carry on a 'normal' life (whatever that maybe??)

If you have never used JMP to design an experiment, this section shows you how to design the experiment and how to understand JMP's output.
Tip: The recommended way to create an experiment is to use the custom designer. JMP also provides classical designs for use in textbook situations.
Your goal is to find the best way to microwave a bag of popcorn. Because you have some experience with this, it is easy to decide on reasonable ranges for the important factors:
When a bag of popcorn is popped, most of the kernels pop, but some remain unpopped. You prefer to have all (or nearly all) of the kernels popped and no (or very few) unpopped kernels. Therefore, you define "the best popped bag" based on the ratio of popped kernels to the total number of kernels.
A good way to improve any procedure is to conduct an experiment. For each experimental run, JMP's custom designer determines which brand to use, how long to cook each bag in the microwave and what power setting to use. Each run involves popping one bag of corn. After popping a bag, enter the total number of kernels and the number of popped kernels into the appropriate row of a JMP data table. After doing all the experimental runs, use JMP's model fitting capabilities to do the data analysis. Then, you can use JMP's profiling tools to determine the optimal settings of popping time, power level, and brand.
The first step is to select DOE > Custom Design. Then, define the responses and factors.
You want to add a second response to the Responses panel and change the names to be more descriptive:
To rename the Y response, double-click the name and type "Number Popped." Since you want to increase the number of popped kernels, leave the goal at Maximize.
To add the second response (total number of kernels), click Add Response and choose None from the menu that appears. JMP labels this response Y2 by default.
Double-click Y2 and type "Total Kernels" to rename it.
In the Factors panel, add Brand as a two-level categorical factor:
Click Add Factor and select Categorical > 2 Level.
To change the name of the factor (currently named X1), type Brand.
To rename the default levels (L1 and L2), click the level names and type Top Secret and Wilbur.
Add Time as a two-level continuous factor:
Click Add Factor and select Continuous.
Change the default name of the factor (X2) by typing Time.
Likewise, to rename the default levels (–1 and 1) as 3 and 5, click the current level name and type in the new value.
Add Power as a two-level continuous factor:
Click Add Factor and select Continuous.
Change the name of the factor (currently named X3) by typing Power.
Rename the default levels (currently named -1 and 1) as 5 and 10 by clicking the current name and typing. The completed Factors panel looks like Renamed Factors with Specified Values.
Click Continue.
The popping time for this experiment is either 3 or 5 minutes, and the power settings on the microwave are 5 and 10. From experience, you know that
You want to constrain the combined popping time and power settings to be less than or equal to 13, but greater than or equal to 10. To define these limits:
Open the Constraints panel by clicking the disclosure button beside the Define Factor Constraints title bar (see Defining Factor Constraints).
Click the Add Constraint button twice, once for each of the known constraints.
Complete the information, as shown to the right in Defining Factor Constraints. These constraints tell the Custom Designer to avoid combinations of Power and Time that sum to less than 10 and more than 13. Be sure to change <= to >= in the second constraint.
The area inside the parallelogram, illustrated on the left in Defining Factor Constraints, is the allowable region for the runs. You can see that popping for 5 minutes at a power of 10 is not allowed and neither is popping for 3 minutes at a power of 5.
You are interested in the possibility that the effect of any factor on the proportion of popped kernels may depend on the value of some other factor. For example, the effect of a change in popping time for the Wilbur popcorn brand could be larger than the same change in time for the Top Secret brand. This kind of synergistic effect of factors acting in concert is called a two-factor interaction. You can examine all possible two-factor interactions in your a priori model of the popcorn popping process.
Click Interactions in the Model panel and select 2nd. JMP adds two-factor interactions to the model as shown to the left in Add Interaction and Power Terms to the Model.
In addition, you suspect the graph of the relationship between any factor and any response might be curved. You can see whether this kind of curvature exists with a quadratic model formed by adding the second order powers of effects to the model, as follows.
Click Powers and select 2nd to add quadratic effects of the continuous factors, Power and Time.
The completed Model should look like the one to the right in Add Interaction and Power Terms to the Model.
The Design Generation panel in Model and Design Generation Panels shows the minimum number of runs needed to perform the experiment with the effects you've added to the model. You can use that minimum or the default number of runs, or you can specify your own number of runs as long as that number is more than the minimum. JMP has no restrictions on the number of runs you request. For this example, use the default number of runs, 16. Click Make Design to continue.
When you click Make Design, JMP generates and displays a design, as shown on the left in Design and Output Options Section of Custom Designer. Note that because JMP uses a random seed to generate custom designs and there is no unique optimal design for this problem, your table may be different than the one shown here. You can see in the table that the custom design requires 8 runs using each brand of popcorn.
Now click Make Table in the Output Options section.
The resulting data table (JMP Data Table of Design Runs Generated by Custom Designer) shows the order in which you should do the experimental runs and provides columns for you to enter the number of popped and total kernels. Note that the design matrix is updated to match the order of runs, the Time and Power values, and the Number Popped and Total Kernels columns are added.
You do not have fractional control over the power and time settings on a microwave oven, so you should round the power and time settings, as shown in the data table. Although this altered design is slightly less optimal than the one the custom designer suggested, the difference is negligible.
Tip: Note that optionally, before clicking Make Table in the Output Options, you could select Sort Left to Right in the Run Order menu to have JMP present the results in the data table according to the brand. We have conducted this experiment for you and placed the results, called Popcorn DOE Results.jmp, in the sample data folder installed with JMP. These results have the columns sorted from left to right.
Pop the popcorn according to the design JMP provided. Then, count the number of popped and unpopped kernels left in each bag. Finally, enter the numbers shown below into the appropriate columns of the data table.
We have conducted this experiment for you and placed the results in the sample data folder installed with JMP. To see the results, open Popcorn DOE Results.jmp from the Design Experiment folder in the sample data. The data table is shown in Results of the Popcorn DOE Experiment.
After the experiment is finished and the number of popped kernels and total kernels have been entered into the data table, it is time to analyze the data. The design data table has a script, labeled Model, that shows in the top left panel of the table. When you created the design, a standard least squares analysis was stored in the Model script with the data table.
Click the red triangle for Model and select Run Script.
The default fitting personality in the model dialog is Standard Least Squares. One assumption of standard least squares is that your responses are normally distributed. But because you are modeling the proportion of popped kernels it is more appropriate to assume that your responses come from a binomial distribution. You can use this assumption by changing to a generalized linear model.
Change the Personality to Generalized Linear Model, Distribution to Binomial, and Link Function to Logit, as shown in Fitting the Model.
Click Run.
Scroll down to view the Effect Tests table (Investigating p-Values) and look in the column labeled Prob>Chisq. This column lists p-values. A low p-value (a value less than 0.05) indicates that results are statistically significant. There are asterisks that identify the low p-values. You can therefore conclude that, in this experiment, all the model effects except for Time*Time are highly significant. You have confirmed that there is a strong relationship between popping time (Time), microwave setting (Power), popcorn brand (Brand), and the proportion of popped kernels.
Investigating p-Values
To further investigate, use the Prediction Profiler to see how changes in the factor settings affect the numbers of popped and unpopped kernels:
Choose Profilers > Profiler from the red triangle menu on the Generalized Linear Model Fit title bar. The Prediction Profiler is shown at the bottom of the report. The Prediction Profiler shows the Prediction Profiler for the popcorn experiment. Prediction traces are displayed for each factor.
As Time increases and decreases, the curved Brand and Power prediction traces shift their slope and maximum/minimum values. The substantial slope shift tells you there is an interaction (synergistic effect) between Time and Brand and Time and Power.
Furthermore, the steepness of a prediction trace reveals a factor's importance. Because the prediction trace for Time is steeper than that for Brand or Power for the values shown in Moving the Time Value from 4 to Near 5, you can predict that cooking time is more important than the brand of popcorn or the microwave power setting.
Click the red triangle icon in the Prediction Profiler title bar and select Desirability Functions.
Click the red triangle icon in the Prediction Profiler title bar and select Maximize Desirability. JMP automatically adjusts the graph to display the optimal settings at which the most kernels will be popped (The Most Desirable Settings).
Our experiment found how to cook the bag of popcorn with the greatest proportion of popped kernels: use Top Secret, cook for five minutes, and use a power level of 8. The experiment predicts that cooking at these settings will yield greater than 96.5% popped kernels.
