Three members of $3.8M Southwest Florida marijuana grow house ring get 10 years in prison
NAPLES - Three members of a successful, $3.85 million, high-grade marijuana grow house operation in Golden Gate Estates, East Naples, North Port and Punta Gorda were sentenced today to 10 years in federal prison.
U.S. District Court Judge John Steele in Fort Myers imposed the terms on Manuel Torres, 35, and Roberto "Michaila" Piñeda, 45, both of Naples, and Ivan Curbelo, 42, of North Port, for conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute 1,000 or more marijuana plants and conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute 100 or more kilograms — 220.46 pounds — of marijuana. It was the minimum mandatory term.
Steele, who heard arguments from Assistant U.S. Attorney Jesus Casas and defense attorneys, also ordered the men to serve five years of supervised release and to pay $850,000 restitution, an amount calculated by the number of plants and profits per pound.
"The judge could have sentenced them to life imprisonment," said Curbelo's attorney, René Suarez of Fort Myers, whose client began working for the ring in 2007. "The minimum of 10 is especially appropriate for Mr. Curbelo in that he has no prior criminal history whatsoever and was a late comer into the conspiracy. ..."
"The real news is that José Diaz, the admitted organizer and leader of the conspiracy who most profited from the enterprise, only received 6½ years for cooperating with the government," he added.
A fourth man, Francisco Arevalo, 45, of Naples, was convicted of lesser charges and sentenced to 1½ years in prison and three years of supervision. Sentencing for the fifth man who went to trial, Torres' brother, Hector Torres of Naples, was delayed until Thursday.
Diaz also must serve five years of supervision, but like his employees may never do that because they all face deportation.
After the September 2009 bust, investigators seized more than $500,000 in assets, including a video security system, trucks, cars, a motorcyle and boat — all of which will be auctioned by the government.
All were convicted after an eight-day trial on May, when Diaz, nicknamed "Joint" and "Crazy Legs," took the stand to detail for jurors how his $3.85 million high-grade marijuana grow house worked over seven years, operating in Golden Gate Estates, East Naples, North Port and Punta Gorda.
Diaz detailed his employees' jobs, and how they distributed marijuana in Collier, Lee, Sarasota and Miami-Dade counties. As jurors listened to tapes played by Casas, Diaz explained the drug lingo he and employees used in their phone conversations, as well as detailing pay rates, how caretakers were advised in cultivation techniques, how it was transported, how they set up grow houses, and how they laundered proceeds to hide the hefty profits.
Although his sentence was lenient due to his cooperation, he must pay $3.85 million in restitution.
Others who accepted plea deals already are serving prison terms.
Herman "Punti" "El Indio" Torres, 32, of Naples, who managed grow houses in Collier County, and Damien Caro Alzarez, who also is known as Alvarez, 41, of Northport, also were sentenced to 10 years followed by five years of supervised release.
Hector, Manuel and Herman Torres' sister, Veronica Torres of Naples, was sentenced to 366 days in federal prison, followed by three years of supervised release for manufacturing marijuana — for accepting payment and allowing Piñeda and Arevalo to use her home on Everglades Boulevard South.
Osiel "The Cabinet Maker" Marin, 40, of Hallandale, was sentenced to 27 months and three years of supervised release; Juan "Chiqui" Lorenzo, 35, of Miami, is serving 1½ years and three years of supervised release, and Alexys Gonzalez, 35, of Miami, is serving 37 months and three years of supervision.
Diaz's plea agreement shows the high-grade marijuana was sold for $3,500 per pound, at least 1,100 pounds were sold from 2002 to 2009, and he employed Herman Torres and Curbelo as his grow house managers.
Torres managed Collier grow houses, which also included a Jim's Stowaway storage unit on Radio Road in East Naples and Diaz's home on Eighth Avenue Southeast. He also managed homes in Lee and Sarasota counties — three in North Port and one in Punta Gorda.
Curbelo managed two in North Port and provided baby marijuana plants to the Estates grow house for further cultivation.Marin, Lorenzo and Gonzalez distributed marijuana, collected the money and turned it over to Diaz, who then paid his managers and cultivators.
The DEA, Naples police, Collier and Lee County Sheriff's offices and others began investigating in early 2008, spending months listening to wiretapped conversations, conducting surveillance, using confidential informants, and GPS tracking devices in "Operation Case Verdé.

Could anyone tell me the name of the tile material that is between the plaster and brick on the outside walls of our 1930s house?. I have seen it perhaps 25 years ago but have forgotten what it looks like and would like to tell a contractor. Thanks. A link to a picture would be good too if possible. |

I think it's classified as "Structural Clay Load-Bearing Wall Tile", and further, "Grade LB-"Suitable for general use in masonry where not exposed to frost action, or for use in exposed masonry where protected with a facing of 3 in. (76.2 mm) or more of stone, brick, terra cotta, or other masonry." From http://www.astm.org/Standards/C34.htm Casey |
Here is a link that might be useful: clickable
Thanks Casey That seems correct. |
Just purchased a 1927 bungalow. Kitchen floors are sloping. Can we somehow even up the floor before tiling? |
Since ASTM is unlikely to have had a standard in 1930, it is unlikely to be what is in any standard now. Many masonry houses built in the 1930s had non-weight bearing hollow block inside of a double thick brick wall. The block had an air gap from the brick and horizontal air channels and was a vitreous product (though often not glazed) designed to prevent excessive wicking of water. The inside surface was molded with about 3/8 x 3/8 grooves to allow plaster to be directly applied to the block. The exterior walls of these masonry houses have no studs of any type in these walls. It is a PITA to cut openings for electrical boxes, but the air channels do provide a convenient place to run new horizontal cables without having to trench the plaster. |
Can we somehow even up the floor before tiling? Yes. Use leveling compound. |
- Posted by sombreuil_mongrel (My Page) on Fri, Apr 17, 09 at 17:35
Brick is obviously correct as always. I could not locate any 1930's web pages ;-). I grew up in a solid stone house built in the 30's . It had 24" thick walls. They were lined with these same kind of tile, and plastered with cement (not interior plaster, this stuff was sand + rosendale cement!) I still have the old B&W photos showing the hollow tiles during construction. I worked on the restoration of a house in 2000-2003 that was built (circa 1910) entirely of these tiles in a load-bearing form. They had the grooved surface for plaster as Brick describes. And they were stucco'ed on the outside. (the architect was Waddy Wood) This stuff was extremely popular from 1900 onward. It differs from concrete block/cinder block in that it is fired at high temperatures and is damp-proof as a result. Therefore, the house is more comfortable and less prone to damp/rising damp than a concrete block type. The structural/load bearing block, as in the Waddy Wood house, is unbelievably hard, even a large-size hammer drill has to work to penetrate. Casey |
Thanks brickeye for this correction. We can only see this tile at the back of a cleanout for fireplace ashes in the basement and have experienced its hardness when we tried to install a wall mount for a tv on an outside wall. Actually we will see it soon when we demolish a mud shower as one of its walls is an outside one. I think we should use mud again for this shower construction on the walls and the pan but finding someone to do it is another thing. |
I am also looking at purchasing a 1930 bungalow type house in Mississippi that appears to be brick veneer with plaster walls on the inside. The floors are not in good shape and may have termite damage. So one though would be to rip up the floor and pour between the walls with a concrete (slab on grade) also put in all new plumbing and electrical as this will need to be placed also. Would like to add an addition master bedroom/ bath and kitchen and prefer to have in-floor heating through out the house. Would this be feasible? |

"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart."
~Helen Keller
A few weeks ago I was at the grocery store purchasing food items for the Nutrition On Weekends program. Now that we are serving more than fifty children in Marshfield, alone, I had a cart full of numerous fruits, vegetables and several loaves of bread. As I emptied the contents of the cart onto the conveyor belt, the woman in front of me commented on the oddity of having so many of the same items for purchase.
I explained to the woman that I was shopping for perishable food items for the week's food packs going to the children in the Nutrition On Weekends program. She said it sounded like a wonderful program. The woman finished her purchase and was exiting the grocery line when I was tapped on the shoulder from behind.
When I turned around the woman behind me said, "My children have been receiving the food packs since October and I have to tell you what a difference it has made for our family. Thank you for everything you do." Immediately, I (we) began to cry. The woman would have never had to say anything to me about her children receiving the food packs. I thanked for sharing, with me, the impact the program has had on her family.
Since the Nutrition On Weekends program started last October, Marshfield Area United Way has witnessed the program be embraced by the community. Numerous individuals, groups, organizations, and businesses have reached out wanting to help ensure children in our area aren't facing food insecurities.
As the program expands to help students at additional schools in the area, Marshfield Area United Way is hoping the community continues to respond to the needs of the program. United Way is looking for donations of non-perishable food items and/or cash donations to help offset the costs of providing the weekly food packs for the remainder of the school year.
Volunteer Reception Centers (VRC) are a critical component to managing spontaneous volunteer workforce in emergency response and recovery. When disaster strikes spontaneous volunteers show up - sometimes thousands of them. Turning that crowd of spontaneous volunteers into an asset and a workforce, and avoiding the horror of it becoming a disaster within a disaster is the purpose of a Volunteer Reception Center.
Being prepared for a disaster is the best thing we can do for our community. Marshfield Area United Way will be having a training program for individuals interested in becoming part of the response team for the Wood County Volunteer Reception Center team.
Training Sessions
Day #1 - Wednesday, March 26, 2014, 5:30 - 7:00 pm
Day #2 - Thursday, March 27, 2014, 6:00 -7:30 pm
Both of the training sessions will be held at the Marshfield Area United Way office. To register for VRC training, email firstname.lastname@example.com or call United Way at 715-384-9992.
Supervised visitation has been a valuable asset to many families in need of services, including those with a history of mental instability and substance abuse. This story includes a family where the father has struggled with alcoholism and mental instability. This family participating in supervised visitation services started the program after a public incident, which ended in a restraining order against the father. Once the restraining order was in effect, the father had to participate in the supervised visitation program with his two children.
Through the visitation program, the father and his two children have been able to visit in a safe environment. Visitation staff has been able to closely observe the scheduled visitation, and intervene when inappropriate behavior is evident. Even in a supervised setting, staff has observed behavior that is inappropriate, making it apparent that there is a need for visits to remain supervised. The children have expressed how they feel safe in the supervised visitation setting. The children experienced instances of abandonment by their father previous to supervised visitation, where their father left them in a public place by themselves. The children fear that if they were to have unsupervised visitation with their father, they would be in danger of abandonment once again. If resources such as the supervised visitation program did not exist, families as such would be without a safe place for visitation, thus the lack of a bond between parent and child (ren).
Personal Development Center's Supervised Visitation and Exchange program is part of a collaborative community effort to provide victims of family violence and their children with safety and support to develop and sustain positive family interaction that reduces the negative impact of violence within families and our community.
Together, with very little effort, and no cost, we can reduce the cost of medicine by an average of 30% or more.
We know it may sound too good to be true, but it's not. 95% of the pharmacies nationwide have agreed to provide lower pricing to everyone that brings in a FamilyWize precription drug discount card. All we have to do is get one of these cards to everyone we can.

As requested, here's a blog post about my underarms… or how I take care of them? Or how do I keep them "white" or something? Lol, I don't really know because I'm very low maintenance when it comes to my underarms.
These tips are based from my experience and does not guarantee that it will work on you. If you have a severe skin problem, it is best to consult a doctor.
1. Refrain from shaving, plucking and/or use hair removal creams. I've tried all of them, by the way. With shaving and hair removal cream, you just affect the hair on the surface and not the hair underneath. This is one of the many factors why underarms are darker. Not to mention, both can cause ingrown hair making your pits itchy and all that stuff.
Plucking, on the other hand, removes the hair from the root but it's time consuming. And excessive plucking = chicken skin. Eww.
I recommend waxing because it'll pull the hair from the root, in one go. I've tried several waxing salons but I usually go to Lay Bare or Strip. I prefer Lay Bare because they're inexpensive and they use sugar wax jelly that exfoliates my skin.
Note: This tip is only for your armpits. You can still shave, pluck and use hair removal creams on other parts of your body.
2. Less deodorants and antiperspirants. I don't use deodorants and antiperspirants but a lot of beauty sites suggested that you should not use these deodorants and antiperspirants excessively, because they have chemical compounds that can cause underarm darkness. I don't know how true is that but I'll just put it here for your reference.
3. Don't scratch 'em. I think this is a very common 'mannerism' when you shave. Going back to the #1 tip – wax. You should also refrain from wearing tight clothing.
4. Exfoliate. When I take a bath, I get my loofah and gently exfoliate my underarms with my Johnson's Baby Milk Bath. Why am I using that product? No particular reason, I just like that product a lot because it keeps my skin baby soft. :)
5. Consult a dermatologist. A real dermatologist, ok. Do not go to those beauty clinics found in malls. You can also go to Belo, Facial Care Centre and Marie France(?) but only if you've exhausted all means.
6. Confidence, baby! So what if your underarms aren't that fair? That doesn't mean you shouldn't enjoy wearing sleeveless! Don't dress to impress others.
A Little Q&A
Does waxing hurt?
For underarms, not so much. I think it'll be a bit painful during the first two sessions though.
What kind of deodorants or antiperspirants do you use?
None. I stopped using them since high school. There are times that I do get smell (i.e. after a sports activity), I pour a small amount of hand sanitizer on a tissue paper and wipe it on my underarms… or I take a really long bath and do #4.
I want to completely remove the hair. Is there any way to do this?
Yes, through IPL treatments. I've been taking IPL treatments for some time now, but I had to put it on hold because of my sudden change of residency. The IPL treatments did lessen the amount of hair regrowth, but I'm not 100% sure that it will completely remove the hair.
Have you ever used any whitening products for your underarms?
A few times. My mom once bought me an underarm skincare kit and it did help lighten my pits but it also made my skin ridiculously thinner or sensitive. So sensitive that I had to stop waxing for two months.
You should also read this article posted on Female Network: How To Fix Common Underarm Problems
One final tip: Learn how to love yourself and embrace your flaws. The moment you decided to do that, I can guarantee you that both your inner and outer beauty will shine. :)

Myers: Politically, there was a time right after the recall election when there was a complicated negotiation between the governor and the Democratic leadership in the legislature about how to solve the financial problem Schwarzenegger had inherited. The compromise was a proposal to borrow money to fill that debt—a series of deficit bonds that Schwarzenegger put on the ballot in March 2004. The decision to borrow money to finance part of the deficit fix and a ballot measure that, while Schwarzenegger could have pushed for a new cap or limit on state spending, was watered down to basically say the state must have a balanced budget. After six weeks of negotiations where the legislature saw him compromise on a lot of things and play the inside politics game, they quickly sensed that there was no reason to fear him anymore.
Nationally, he has assumed the profile of an independent. To what extent is this a truth or a press creation?
Miranda: I really do think he's an independent. He's angered quite a few Republicans along the way while in office. He railed quite a few times against the Bush administration for not getting it in terms of global warming. He tried to tell his fellow Republicans at one GOP convention "they were dying at the box office" for being too conservative for California.
Walters: I think it's quite accurate. He is a genuine pragmatic centrist, tough on crime, business issues, spending, and taxes, and soft on the environment and social issues such as gay marriage and abortion. In fact, ideologically he's exactly in the California middle, but as his equally centrist predecessors, especially Gray Davis, discovered, being in the middle makes you a friendless target in an ideologically polarized Capitol.
Is there an aspect of the governor that the national press misses when it is reporting on him?
Miranda: I always crack up when the national press injects Hollywood references into their stories about Schwarzenegger. After the first couple of years, we California-based reporters wouldn't go there. We rarely reference his movies unless he does.
Walters: The national press never got out of celebrity mode. Schwarzenegger can be a buffoon at times, but he's actually quite intelligent and perceptive about the larger world, much more so than other politicians in the Capitol, and very much his own man, not a tool of anyone.
Myers: I understand the points that the national press makes about Schwarzenegger. The trouble is for those of us who live in California, is that Schwarzenegger's ability to communicate to the world feels like half of the story. Schwarzenegger was not elected for those reasons. He was elected to try and solve California's immediate problems. There was a sense in the fall of 2003 that California was headed off a cliff. We still have problems— systemic budget problems, an electorate that feels like it's going off the cliff. It feels like déjà vu.
What is your favorite Arnold Schwarzenegger movie?
Walters: I've seen only a couple of them since I rarely go to the movies. The original Terminator maybe.
Miranda: I enjoyed Eraser, but I went to see that because it starred Vanessa Williams and Schwarzenegger happen to be in it.
Myers: I'm going to pick the one that has scenes in it that are most telling about the job that I've watched him hold the last seven years—Kindergarten Cop.

Recent Washington Reviews
The dog even enjoyed the view.
For several years I have invited friends to spend a weekend somewhere relaxing. This house was our favorite in the Spokane area by far. The view was incredible, hot tub so relaxing, and owners beyond accommodating. The house is stocked with all the necessities and very clean. The location is great, close enough to town if something is needed but far enough away to feel like we left town. We hope to go there again soon.
Amazing property moutain chalet!
I can't say enough about how great this property is. We have rented the chalet twice and love everything about it- location, amenities, etc.
The owners of this chalet take amazing care of the property. Everything has been considered with the guest in mind. Light switches & features are labeled, instructions posted about the hot tub, and checkout reminders.
The cleanliness of the chalet is impeccable! Additional cleaning products can be found in appropriate areas to help you keep things tidy throughout your stay. Detailed checkout instructions list the simple tasks guests are asked to complete prior to departure.
The amenities are never ending! Outside there is a wraparound deck on the main level with an outdoor table for seating, & a large cozy hot tub, and a fire pit (outdoor chairs provided/bring your own firewood). There is ample parking in the drive just off the cul-de-sac. Inside everything has been thought of. There is clothes iron, dishwasher, full sized laundry (detergent provided), river rock fireplace, pool table, two full kitchens, three bathrooms, & the list continues.
The rooms are well laid out and have the perfect furnishes for a mountain chalet. Everything is clean, cozy & has a modern feel to it. The great room features an enormous river rock fire place and ample seating with a leather large sofa and comfy den chairs. There are two full kitchens with stainless steel appliances, the lower billiards area is the perfect game room, & the three bathrooms are stocked with fluffy towels. The four bedrooms are all inviting with clean & comfortable linens. For additional sleeping area, there is a pull out sofa in the billiards room. The dining area off the great room has ample seating & light. An upstairs loft area provides the perfect setting to relax while enjoying the views of Mt Baker just outside the windows.
There is a land line phone at the chalet, but there is not cell phone service. WiFi can be found in a nearby community clubhouse or across the hwy at a nearby restaurant.
The chalet is located in a quite cul-de-sac of the Snowline Community. Across the hwy there the Chair9 restaurant offers great food & drinks. The Mt.Baker Ski Area is just a short drive up the mountain. There are countless hiking trails in the area. We booked a river rafting trip with nearby Wild & Scenic Adventures. Any forgotten supplies can be picked up at nearby towns.
The owners make the entire process a breeze!

Werner Herzog plays The Zec in the film "Jack Reacher." | Paramount Pictures, Karen Ballard
Stars: Tom Cruise, Robert Duvall, Richard Jenkins, Rosamund Pike and
Werner Herzog.
Rating: PG-13 for violence, language and drug
Length: 2 hr., 10 min.
Updated: January 22, 2013 6:20AM
We go to the movies to escape real life, to envelope ourselves in the fantasy worlds of romance and comedy and superhero adventures — and yes, violent action movies.
A film like "Jack Reacher," with Tom Cruise riding into town and demonstrating amazing prowess behind a steering wheel and exhibiting his steely wits and fists, and oh, yeah, knives and guns, is made to entertain. No message, no attempt to educate, no mission other than to give you your money's worth. It's set in the real world, but taking place in a parallel, make-believe universe.
And there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.
As I was watching the film last Friday morning, with phone turned off and laptop put away, the world was receiving the first bulletins about the horrific shootings in Connecticut.
By the time I emerged from the screening room, they were all gone. The innocent children, the heroic adults, the shooter's mother, the shooter himself.
Studios have reacted to the Sandy Hook tragedy by postponing or canceling the premieres of several major holiday releases — and in the case of "Jack Reacher," altering some of the marketing materials as well. But short of pulling this movie from release, there's nothing that can be done about the content of the film itself.
And so we proceed with this spoiler alert:
"Jack Reacher" begins with an extended, well-crafted, dialogue-free, extremely intense sequence in which a sniper sets up in a parking garage near the Pittsburgh Pirates' PNC Park, takes careful aim and begins gunning down victims.
If you remove this scene from the movie, you don't have a movie. It sets the wheels in motion for the rest of the story — an intermittently engaging but convoluted and often ludicrous thriller.
Much has been made of the physical differences between dark-haired fireplug Tom Cruise and the blond, 6-foot-5 Jack Reacher in Lee Child's books. Of greater concern is Cruise's actual performance. As we saw in last year's "Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol," the 50ish Cruise is still capable of spearheading a great action movie, but here he's grinning and mugging and preening his way through a role that calls for much darker shades. This is one of those vanity performances in which nearly every woman who crosses paths with Reacher practically swoons in his presence, as if they're meeting Tom Cruise and not an actual character.
The assassin leaves behind a trail of evidence at the crime scene, making it easy for the Pittsburgh police to pin the murders to a former Army sniper.
Richard Jenkins, a wonderful actor, is the DA who thinks he has a slam-dunk case. Rosamund Pike, not a wonderful actor, is his daughter, who's defending the alleged sniper. As for the sniper, before he's pummeled into a coma, he has one request:
As we soon learn, Reacher's a former military cop turned off-the-grid drifter with only one shirt, no visible means of income and some serious fighting, driving and shooting skills. As he keeps reminding everyone, he's no hero. Ah, but he's played by Tom Cruise, so maybe he is a hero, after all!
Werner Herzog provides some welcome camp relief as an insane villain who once chewed his own fingers off. (Don't ask.) But Cruise's old buddy, the great Robert Duvall, is saddled with playing a gun range owner who's a cartoonishly broad character, doing ridiculous things for no plausible reason.
"Jack Reacher" is a well-directed piece of pulp crapola. The action sequences are well choreographed, the visuals are arresting. But the big reveal is just ridiculous, the dialogue is often unintentionally funny, and Cruise's performance is mostly wrong. Even when Reacher's beating up the bad guys, talking about drinking their blood from his boot or telling them he doesn't have a moral compass, he's still got that clean-cut smile and that charming manner. We don't see any real darkness in this guy.
There we have it. If this film came out any other time, I'd warn you away simply because it's a mediocre thriller. Through no fault of anyone connected to this movie, the other reason you might want to stay away is to avoid the big-screen sight of a woman cradling a child in her arms and trying to find cover as a sniper has them firmly in his crosshairs.

FOXBORO — If Rob Ninkovich knows which Miami Dolphins player he thinks he can take the ball away from on Sunday, he's not saying.
But you'd better believe Ninkovich has been studying.
"Some guys are more conscious of keeping the ball tighter to them and keeping two hands on it when they're in traffic, and other guys are a little more careless with it and will get it away from their body and swing it around a little bit," said Ninkovich, one of the most prolific turnover machines in the NFL this season. "You definitely see that on film — the guy who's going to protect it and the guy who's trying to make a play and can kind of get careless with it. You can definitely scout that."
On the surface, New England and Miami have similar defensive numbers. Miami has given up slightly fewer yards and points per game than the Patriots have. (The difference is about 30 fewer yards and two fewer points.)
One striking number is that Miami has forced the third-most punts in the NFL (64), the Patriots the second-fewest (41).
But forcing a punt is only the second-best outcome for a defense when it gets on the field. Forcing a turnover is the best outcome. That's something the New England defense does better than any team in the NFL — and something the Dolphins haven't done nearly as well.
New England has forced 26 fumbles and recovered 18 of them. Ninkovich has recovered a team-high four, and Vince Wilfork has recovered three. Steve Gregory, Tavon Wilson and suspended pass-rusher Jermaine Cunningham have recovered two apiece.
"That's everybody's playing style," said linebacker Dont'a Hightower, who recovered a fumble and returned it for a touchdown in Week One, against Tennessee. "That's how everybody plays. They play for the big hit. With Rob or Chandler (Jones) with the forced-fumble sacks, with (Brandon) Spikes or (Jerod) Mayo coming up and making a big hit, Steve Gregory, Tavon, (Devon) McCourty, (Aqib) Talib — those guys are making a big play on the ball. That's how they play."
The entire Miami defense, on the other hand, has forced and recovered just three fumbles this season — fewer than Ninkovich has by himself.
It's not that the Dolphins can't force fumbles. They've forced plenty of fumbles — 15, to be exact. But they've managed to recover just three of those fumbles, relegating the other three to the dustbin of missed opportunities.
Be it due to good luck or good fundamental technique, that's not an issue the Patriots have had.
"Some guys bend over and kick it a few times, kick it out of bounds," Ninkovich said. "I was always taught that when you see the ball, you fall on it — but not land on it because that's when it squirts out. You turn and cradle it."
To make matters worse for Miami, the team that has struggled more to turn the ball over also has been the team more prone to turning the ball over itself.
Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill has had 12 passes intercepted this season, and running backs Reggie Bush and Daniel Thomas have lost two fumbles apiece, respectively.
Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, on the other hand, has been picked off just three times this season, and no Patriots skill-position player has lost more than one fumble this season.
When asked if there was anything about New England he would like his team to emulate, Dolphins coach Joe Philbin named two things — consistency and turnover margin.
Patriots fans are used to hearing Bill Belichick talk plenty about consistency.
Patriots players are used to hearing Belichick talk plenty about turnovers, too.
"We work on stripping the ball every day, recovering them every day," Belichick said. "We talk about opportunities to get the ball out as we watch film. It's no different than the way it's been. We've done that since I was with the Giants. It's part of your defense."

- Conference date: 19-23 Mar 2000
- Location: Reno,Nevada (USA)
Understanding of the formation and dynamics of non-LTE plasmas is crucial to inertial and magnetic fusion energy research as well as astrophysical research. The intrinsic complexity of non-LTE systems at high density and the remote nature of x-ray emitting astrophysical plasmas present stringent challenges to our models. Confidence in our atomic kinetics models is gained through comparisons with experimental data from plasmas that are well diagnosed by techniques that are independent of spectroscopic models. To this end experiments with Au foils buried in Be targets have been designed to achieve steady-state, gradient free conditions on the Nova laser. Simulations of the experiments that use detailed atomic kinetics models have shown good agreement with measured x-ray spectra. Large sets of data and many detailed processes are included in these models; issues involving satellite configurations, accuracy of dielectronic recombination rates and non-zero optical depths for resonant lines have to be addressed. To test the detailed atomic data used in the models, experiments have been carried out on an electron beam ion trap (EBIT). The EBIT experiments measure directly the contribution of collisional excitation, dielectronic recombination and radiative recombination to the observed x-ray lines. Good agreement is found between the EBIT spectra and the HULLAC data used to interpret the Nova buried layer experiments.

The tears of sadness shed by those in the eDiscovery community lamenting the end of the predictive coding debate in Kleen Products may turn to tears of joy when they realize that the debate could resurface next year. Despite early reports, the Plaintiffs in Kleen did not completely roll over on their argument that defendants should be required to use what they characterize as "Content Based Advanced Analytics" ("CBAA"). To the contrary, Plaintiffs preserved their right to meet and confer with Defendants about future document productions after October 1, 2013. Not surprisingly, future document productions could rekindle the fiery debate about the use of predictive coding technology.
The controversy surrounding Kleen Products, LLC, et. al. v. Packaging Corporation of America, et. al. was sparked earlier this year when Plaintiffs asked Judge Nolan to order Defendants to redo their previous productions and all future productions using CBAA. Among other things, Plaintiffs claimed that if Defendants had used "CBAA" tools (a term they did not define) such as predictive coding technology, then their production would have been more thorough. In June, I reported hearing transcripts indicated that 7th Circuit Magistrate Judge Nan Nolan was urging the parties to focus on developing a mutually agreeable keyword approach to eDiscovery instead of debating whether other search and review methodologies would yield better results. This nudging by Judge Nolan was not surprising considering at least some of the defendants had already spent considerable time and money managing the document production process using more traditional tools other than predictive coding.
In a new twist, reports from other sources surfaced recently, suggesting that the Plaintiffs in Kleen decided to completely withdraw their demands that Defendants use predictive coding during discovery. The news likely disappointed many in the electronic discovery space poised to witness a third round of expert testimony pitting more traditional eDiscovery approaches against predictive coding technology. However, any such disappointment is premature because those dreaming of an eDiscovery showdown in Kleen could still see their dreams come true next year.
On August 21, Judge Nolan did indeed sign a joint "Stipulation and Order Relating to ESI Search." However, in the order the Plaintiffs withdrew "their demand that defendants apply CBAA to documents contained in the First Request Corpus (emphasis added)." Plaintiffs go on to stipulate that they will not "argue or contend that defendants should be required to use or apply the types of CBAA or "predictive coding" methodology… with respect to any requests for production served on any defendant prior to October 1, 2013 (emphasis added)." Importantly, the Plaintiffs preserved their right to meet and confer regarding the appropriate search methodology to be used for future collections if discovery continues past October of next year.
Considering the parties have only scratched the surface of discovery thus far, the likelihood that the predictive coding issue will resurface again is high unless settlement is reached or Defendants have a change of heart. In short, the door is still wide open for Plaintiffs to argue that Defendants should be required to use predictive coding technology to manage future productions, and rumors about the complete demise of predictive coding in the Kleen Products case have been exaggerated.

Sep 9th 2008 4:55AM Dear confused, fellow Paladins.
Strength isn't replacing Spell-Damage, I did some maths and we wont actually wont be losing any spell damage due to Touched By The Light (http://wotlk.wowhead.com/?spell=53592). Moves like Avengers shield and Concecration (http://wotlk.wowhead.com/?spell=27173) are going to benefit from Attack Power now as well as Spell Damage. Strength is also going to be very useful with a move like Hammer of the Righteous (http://wotlk.wowhead.com/?spell=53595) which causes weapon damage. Those QQing about lack of Int shoud open half an eye to the new mana costs. They are based on a percentage of your base mana so who cares how much int you have, in fact if you really think about it LESS IS MORE. As the mana returned will be bigger, the less max mana we have.
The Tankadin just got interesting imo. ;)
I'm Done, thanks for reading.

Seventeen Trainer brought to you by Exercise TV.
Hi. I'm Ana Lorenzana from the Seventeen Trainer brought to you by Exercise TV. This might get hot and a hurry workout. I'm gonna show you some moves to help you see and feel results quickly so you'll be ready for any event and you'll be looking your absolute hottest. What you're gonna start out with is a squat, a squat hold. Your feet are hips-width apart, toes pointing forward. You're just gonna squat it down and hold it. You're gonna hold this position for 20 seconds. You're gonna feel the burn. Keep those abs tight and your chest lifted. Once you've done the 20 seconds of that, you're gonna come up a little bit and you're gonna shuffle your feet for 20 seconds as well. You need to be sure to keep your chest up throughout. Keep your abs engaged. So 20 seconds of both of those and then we're moving on to the next move. Grab those dumbbells and take a big step back. We're gonna do a reverse fly from this position. Be sure your chest is coming down, abs tight but your shoulders are still pulled back. You're gonna open it up like you're opening a pair of curtains. [unknown] Good. Squeeze the shoulder blades back. We're getting the entire back and the back of the shoulders. Good. Now when you switch your legs, you're gonna do rows which is the variation of the same exercise. Pull those elbows back. Squeeze your shoulder blades. If you'll notice on these, your elbows stay close to your body. Good. We give it 10 reps of each of those and then you're going to move on to your last exercise. And come down onto the mat, grab 1 dumbbell. Your legs and arms are going to be extended. You're gonna drop it down, legs and arms dropping at the same time. And when you bring it back in, really reach as high as you can. Okay. Shoulder blades and your butt off the ground just a little bit. It's a big squeeze. You feel that at the top of your abs to the bottom of your abs. This is an effective one. Good and we give you 15 of those. You're already on your way to being [unknown] and hurry. Thanks for joining me. I'm Ana Lorenzana from the Seventeen Trainer brought to you by Exercise TV. See you at the next workout.

XXX Porn Parodies – 10 You Probably Never Knew Existed

Have you ever wondered "What if Star Wars took place in Australia?"... Me neither, but I like the idea. Watching this trailer feels like someone remixed Star Wars with an epic beer commercial. The good guys have light-sabers, the clone troops rock some sweet light-boomerangs, and a lot of it takes place in a brewery. EPIC. Though it's pretty amateur, I'm pretty confident it will blow Phantom Menace off the grid.

Well it's Halloween and normally around this time of year and in fact if memory serves me correctly, a new Paranormal Activity movie should be getting ready to come in theaters this weekend or next week. Well there is no new movie coming out in time for Halloween, so movie-goers will have to find their annual movie scares elsewhere.
Star Trek: Into Darkness is a sequel to J.J Abrams' 2009 "reboot" of the franchise. I put reboot in quotations because I don't really consider it a restart of the series. I consider the new films set in their own alternate timeline because one of stamps the series was famous for was alternate realities and time travel. Well it's just that it's Star Trek in an alternate timeline and the sequel to the 2009 film is just as impressive as the first but falls a bit short from its predecessor.
We're tired of these glamorized sex scenes in movies -- the truth is that sex is awkward and weird sometimes, and we love when movies get it right.

We've collected a list of the most awkward sex scenes in movies, ranging from the hilarious to the embarrassing, cringe-worthy, and hard to watch.

'The Hangover 3′ is happening. Though 'The Hangover, Part II' was basically a remake of the original film and mostly disappointed critics, the sequel made a ton of money (it was the fourth highest grossing film of 2011) and WB and director Todd Phillips have been quietly planning the third and final installment. And, as it turns out, 'The Hangover 3′ may be happening sooner than you thought.

Where to begin? I'm sure most of you have heard of the film Legends of the Fall, a mainstream big-budget Hollywood film released in 1994. A lengthy drama about an immigrant family living in an early 20th century Montana, the film features stunning scenery (most of which is actually in Canada) and an engrossing narrative of the Ludlow family struggles. Still, I have many mixed opinions about this movie.
The story begins with the youngest Ludlow brother Samuel (portrayed by Henry Thomas) returning home from Harvard University with his fiancée Susannah (Julia Ormond) in tow. Susannah is charmed by the family and Montana life and is quickly accepted by everyone. The Ludlow's live on a gorgeous Montana ranch, maintained with the help of patriarch William Ludlow's (Anthony Hopkins) old friend One Stab, and his family. As Susannah becomes acquainted with everyone, One Stab's young daughter Isabel confides that someday she is going to marry Tristan, the middle Ludlow brother (played by Brad Pitt). Ah, foreshadowing.
Despite her engagement to Samuel, and the not-so-subtle admiration from oldest Ludlow brother Alfred (played by Aidan Quinn), Susannah finds herself drawn to the wild, untamed Tristan, who somehow looks nothing like the rest of the family. With long blonde hair and blue eyes, I am guessing he was something of a young Fabio to the local ladies (if they had any clue who Fabio was).
Even with all this family melodrama, Samuel announces to the family that he feels drawn to aid his country as well as Britain against Germany during World War I. All three brothers end up in the war, feeling the need to keep their youngest sibling safe. However, when Samuel is killed in the line of duty, both Alfred and Tristan are overcome with guilt. While Alfred returns home to Montana, Tristan is too distraught and wanders aimlessly around the world, struggling to deal with the death of his younger brother.
When Tristan finally returns home he finds that Susannah is still there and has been waiting for him. They declare their singular affection for each other, much to Alfred's dismay, and all is well for a time. But Tristan is still having trouble dealing with the loss of Samuel, as well as a tumultuous relationship with jealous Alfred, and he decides to leave home once again. Dismayed, Susannah promises to wait for him forever…but forever ends up being a matter of years. While Tristan is off frolicking with his inner demons she finally gives in to Alfred's love and propositions of marriage.
At last Tristan comes home for good, only to find Susannah with Alfred. We discover that young Isabel has grown into a beautiful young woman and does indeed marry Tristan. But after a handful of tragedies he once again finds himself alone. It takes way too much death and destruction, but as the film closes the family has at last reformed their bonds and come together again. And that's pretty much it. Nearly three hours later one must wonder if the somewhat-fulfilling end of this movie was worth all the depressing parts. I, for one, am torn. I'll let you decide. Until next time.
Legends of the Fall, 1994, Rated R
Starring Brad Pitt, Anthony Hopkins, Aidan Quinn

To receive the best care for heart failure, talking frankly with your health care team is a good place to start. It's also helpful to know about a resource published by health experts that outlines treatment plans recommended for patients with chronic heart failure.
Since 1980, the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association have jointly published clinical guidelines to help health care providers create good care plans for their patients. The guidelines are based on scientific research and medical evidence. One set of guidelines, published in 2013, is the 2013ACCF/AHA Guideline for the Management of Heart Failure.
The guidelines are written for medical people, so the language is technical and focuses on clinical information. As a patient, understanding the basics of the guidelines can help you take a more active role in your treatment. You'll also be able to ask questions that can help you receive the best care.
The guidelines offer tips for health care providers on performing a thorough checkup to detect heart failure and to evaluate how serious it is. They guide the health care provider in what symptoms to look for and what screenings may be needed (such as lab or exercise tests) to gather more information.
According to the guidelines, a person who is at risk for or who has heart failure falls into one of the following stages of the disease:
Stage A: A person who is at high risk for heart failure, but has no problem with his or her heart structure and does not have symptoms of heart failure
Stage B: A person who has a problem with his or her heart structure, but does not have symptoms of heart failure
Stage C: A person who already has, or who has had in the past, heart failure symptoms, which have to do with structural heart disease
Stage D: A person who has end-stage heart disease; this is the most serious stage
Only people in stages C and D are already in heart failure. There is an additional set of categories for the management of these people, called the New York Heart Association functional classification, which should not be confused with the ACCF/AHA staging method.
The guidelines suggest specific treatments and actions for each stage. Once you know the stage you are in, you can learn which treatments the guidelines suggest. For example, for people in Stage A, suggested actions focus on treating risk factors, such as high blood pressure, smoking, and drinking. For all stages, the guidelines suggest specific medicines and certain medical tests or procedures.
The guidelines also advise health care providers to take a "multidisciplinary approach" to your care. This means that, rather than working alone to treat you, your health care provider teams up with other health care specialists, such as nurses, exercise physiologists, and smoking-cessation experts. Your health care team may suggest that you participate in support groups or visit certain specialists to help you make lifestyle changes to manage heart disease.
The guidelines are designed to apply to most patients in most cases. They give health care providers a range of treatment options. The ultimate decisions rest with the health care provider and with you. Remember that you are the most important member of your health care team. Asking questions about your treatment is smart and responsible. It's your right to know your health care team's goals for you--and how clinical guidelines compare with your care plan.

Anyhow I met this man, he is the strongest man I have ever met emotionally and physically. somehow he got.to m he is smart and a gentleman. I tried not to fall for him becz he wasnt my type. We broke up after 3 months of dating becz I thought he was too much, hot head. Although I broke up with him becz he.ddnt keep his composure I subconsciously admired him for it. Long story short weve been back together, during our breakup he tried to fill the void and messed around with other girls. We both agree that what we have is special, he learned to make love with me for the first time and not sex, he tellz me that all the time. I know its special and I know he loves me but I cant get over how he was able to be involved with many other girls. I feel I dont trust him. He made a bad decision recently and has not been able to find a place to live, yes he has a grrat job
Hi Anon,
Welcome to EmpowHER. Sorry to hear this. But, if you broke up with him and both went your separate ways. Either one of you, were free to date other people. If you want to save your relationship now, because he is a good guy. You might have to work on putting the past behind.

Self-Organizing Networks (SON) are a critical enabler for the widespread deployment of mobile broadband technologies. Network complexity has reached the stage at which self-configuring, self-optimizing and self-healing functions are now indispensible for running a modern mobile network. Multiple standards and an expanding ecosystem of equipment providers need the automation of as much network planning, design, build and optimization as possible.
Ericsson's SON Optimization Manager is a network management system for the automatic optimization of radio networks. By centralizing functionality, we optimize multiple network elements and domains can in a coordinated, top-down approach. This allows the integration of multiple technologies (2G, 3G and 4G) and multiple vendors into a single optimization paradigm.Ericsson SON Optimization Manager addresses some of the key SON use cases; collecting performance and configuration data, analyzing and processing it , and automatically adjusting network configuration parameters.
Operation is autonomous. The system runs continuously, and requires no manual intervention. The only impacts network operations departments will see are improved network performance, and direct OPEX savings as their routine optimization tasks are automated.
The SON Optimization Manager uses multi-vendor and multi-technology modules which mediate centralize read and write access to the network. Analysis of the complex network data uses field proven algorithms to determine the next best step for implementation in the network. Our step-wise approach assures that your network is always running at it's best.
In automating network optimization it's important to retain control. A SON Portal gives centralized user access to the SON Optimization Manager, via easy-to-GUIs.
Here, configurable policies and rules ensure that operation follows the guidelines set, and we provide real-time and historical visualization of the network changes to provide traceability.
SON Optimization Manager is a great step forward in how to get the best from your network assets.
Our highly scalable architecture can serve from the smallest to the largest of networks. New use cases are easily introduced as needs change.
Users can configure different use cases, at different times, in different parts of the network, depending on network conditions and requirements.
Check out this book on Self Organizing Networks edited by Ericsson experts in the planning and optimization of multi-technology, multi-vendor wireless networks.
